 Chapter 1 Exiting Seclusion

    In the beginning, the Great God Pangu split the Gods Realm into three known realms; the Mortal Realm, the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm.

    Heretofore, mortal cultivators from the Mortal Realm will now be able to ascend to the Celestial Realm as celestial practitioners and celestial practitioners will be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm as immortal cultivators.

    The story begins in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, one of the many celestial fraternities of the Celestial Realm. In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the men prided their beards as dearly as their faces and the women idolized men with beautiful beards. To insult the beards of the men in this fraternity is the same as pping on their faces.

    The Celestial Realm is unlike the lower Mortal Realm where there are vast oceans and innds. The entire Celestial Realm is consisted of endless lofty mountains and it is thousands of times as vast as the lower Mortal Realm.

    The many celestial ns and poptions are situated high above the mountains. Usually the powerful celestial ns will be situated on mountains that are rich in spiritual veins that are refined by rich deposits of jadeites. That will be the most ideal ce for cultivation. Other than spiritual veins and jadeites, mountains that are rich in silver and golden celestiums are also ideal, since silver and golden celestiums are needed in great demand to make precious weapons.

    Below the mountains, are thick deste mists and endless bottomless valleys that are filled with many powerful deste monsters. The spiritual aura below the deste mists is poor and unsuitable for cultivation.

    Moreover the presence of the deste aura is too overwhelming and can easily corrupt a cultivator inner core. However because of this very same reason, it is the ideal ce for the deste monsters that feed upon it.

    In a way, the deste mists act as a natural barrier between the deste beasts below and the divine beasts that dwell high in the mountains.

    The deste aura below the mountains actuallye from the same mountain veins as the spiritual veins that the cultivators depend upon. The only difference is that this deste aura is actually refined into spiritual aura by the rich deposits of jadeites in the mountains and by the purifying aura above the mountains that are continuously cleansed by the divine lightning.

    From time to time, there is always a possibility that a powerful deste monster will emerge from the valley below.

    The richer the spiritual auras in the mountains, the weaker the deste auras that will be at the bottom. Therefore it is not wrong to say that mountains that are rich in spiritual auras usually do not have powerful deste beasts below the deste mists.

    Ji Yuan had finally opened his eyes.

    Today he had finally reached enlightenment and had be a Golden Saint, a seventh realm cultivation expert.

    He lifted his fingers to count the number of years that he had hidden in the mountains for his seclusion.

    "One hundred years¡­"

    He was startled, "That is really a long time. Hmm¡­"

    Just as he was about to stroke his beard, he was once again startled to find that his beautiful beard was gone.

    He quickly took out a mirror and was dismayed to see that he was now clean shaven and was sighing, "I have be so ugly now. I must have lost my beard during my golden body transformation from the sixth to the seventh realm level."

    He began to mutter in great misery, "I''ve heard of stories that for those that have lost their beards during their golden body transformation, it will be a permanent loss. What bad luck I have¡­"

    With a deep sigh, he exercised his profound strength to kick his way out of the cave, loosening the boulders out of his way and almost causing the cave to copse, ending his adventure in the very first chapter of his new life.

    He quickly rushed out of the cave with a heavy relief, "Lucky me! I''ve almost killed myself."

    As he began to make his way down the mountain peak, he started to admire the mountain sceneries that were around him and was muttering at the familiar sight. "It is so good to be alive."

    The Deste Celestial Fraternity was a mostly mountainous celestial fraternity with a great desert to its south.  So there was actually nothing except for mountains.

    But it was a familiar sight that he had always remembered and it brought back fond memories.

    After a few days of walking, he had finally returned to the mountain peak where he was once the Sword Saint of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    All of a sudden he paused in his tracks when he heard some distant voice; a young maiden and a middle-aged man with bushy beard were seen talking in the tall pine tree groves.

    This young maiden was extremely beautiful and she had a heavenly air. She appeared to be out of the world and her presence exuded a superior loftiness.

    But Ji Yuan thought, "Howe she looks so familiar, like someone that I''ve known?"

    He was soon distracted by their conversations.

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi, have you forgotten that without my Emperor Hall Sect to offer protection to your Orthodox Sword Sect, you will not have the luxury of strolling in these mountains?"

    Ji Yuan was gasping, "Her name is Ye Chengxi¡­I remember her. She is my most talented senior disciple. What luck. To think that I will be able to meet my most talented disciple that I had previously ced much hope on before I went into seclusion."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi coldly said to the middle-aged man, "That is my business and none of your business."

    The middle-aged man hummed coldly in return, "Fairy Ye Chengxi is indeed the number one Sword Saintess in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. So why don''t you agree to merge with my Emperor Hall Sect? I''m sure that I will be able to take good care of you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi hummed, "I hope that you can dare to say that in front of me 10 yearster."

    The middle-aged man immediately roared into a jovialughter, "Do you really think that he will still be able to exit his seclusion? He is probably dead by now. Don''t be stupid. Everyone knows that he is already¡­"

    But before he could finish, the brilliant re of a sharp sword was disyed at his throat by Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    She said coldly, "If I hear a word more from you that is insulting to my old master, I will kill you."

    But the middle-age man remained calm and he was smiling, "I am not afraid to spar with the beautiful Fairy Ye Chengxi who is one of the four renowned great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. In fact, I will consider this to be my honor¡­"<sub> </sub>

    All of a sudden he had turned to the direction of Ji Yuan who was eavesdropping and shouted. "Who is that! Come out now!"

    Even Ye Chengxi was eximing softly, "Who is spying on us?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly as he showed himself up but not before he had used his profound strength to hide his golden eyes which was a sign that he was a superior celestial cultivator. He had identally gasped when Fairy Ye Chengxi was defending his honor and this slip had caused him to be discovered.

    He quickly disyed a humble half bow and greeted, "My respect to the two golden celestials."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi raised her alluring beautiful eyelids as she asked gently, "Young man, which celestial n are you from?"

    Ji Yuan stole a nce at his former disciple. She was so beautiful now. In front of her, all the beautiful mountain sceneries had lost its luster and could not bepared to her appearance. He was greatlyforted that she was now so outstanding in her celestial practice and in her profound arts of allure. However, it was a pity that he could not acknowledge her now. It was because he considered it such a shameful thing to lose his beard and he had to find a way to get back his manly beard first.

    Ji Yuan replied humbly, "I am just a lowly cultivator that is without any celestial n. My name is Yuan Ji."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was suddenly giggling softly, "Yuan Ji? That sounds like meeting your maker."

    But she had quickly realized that she was rude and asked gently, "Will you like to follow me to cultivate the way?"

    Ji Yuan was startled. He did not expect his former most prized disciple to be someone that could ept a prot¨¦g¨¦ so casually. In the past, he was quite stringent when he was epting prot¨¦g¨¦s, especially direct disciples.

    The middle-aged man wasughing jovially, "I didn''t expect that the renowned Fairy Ye Chengxi will have fallen so low and is so desperate to recruit new prot¨¦g¨¦s to the Orthodox Sword Sect. To think that you can be so casual as to recruit any passerby to be your prot¨¦g¨¦. Or just because you think that he is a dashing young man and you want to keep him in your harem?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi ignored him and asked Ji Yuan gently, "Are you willing?"

    The middle-aged man interrupted with anotherugh before he said to Ji Yuan, "Young man, don''t be too hasty to reply. Let me tell you what. I''m Supremacy Li Qiang, one of the four elders of the Emperor Hall Sect. Why don''t you join my celestial n instead? Fairy Ye is only a fifth realm golden celestial while I am a sixth realm golden supremacy."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi hummed coldly and she looked unhappy.

    "Are you unhappy that I am stealing your recruit?" Li Qiangughed jovially.

    He turned to say to Yuan Ji, "Surely you must have heard of the celestial position of the Emperor Hall Sect. Compare to the inferior Orthodox Sword Sect, this isn''t even an option at all."

    Actually Yuan Ji had wanted to tell him that he really did not know about the celestial position of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Li Qiang was confident that any young men would surely pick the Emperor Hall Sect. No one would screw themselves, especially when it concerned their futures.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi heaved a soft sigh. There was nothing she could do except to sigh weakly. It was because Li Qiang was right.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly looking at Fairy Ye Chengxi as he said softly, "I will go with you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi''s beautiful slim figure was jolted as she turned to Yuan Ji with a perplexed look.

    Li Qiang was stunned as he looked at Yuan Ji with a look of disbelief. "Do you know what you are missing? Do you know that you have just missed your best chance of practicing the way. By going with the Orthodox Sword Sect, you are screwing yourself to the dead end. If you want to court your own death then I won''t stop you."

    Yuan Ji ignored him and instead he said to Fairy Ye Chengxi, "Master, please take me to the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    He felt a little weird that he was now calling his former disciple his master now.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "From now onward, I will be your prot¨¦g¨¦ master and you are to address me as your master. You have two other senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers in the Orthodox Sword Sect. Our sect is a small one with only less than a hundred prot¨¦g¨¦s. They are mostlymon prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    With a soft sigh, she added. "It is exactly like what Li Qiang had said. We are a puny sect. Perhaps, you will regret it sooner orter."

    Yuan Ji said firmly, "I will not regret it."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded quietly.

    Before long, they had reached the heaven gates of the Orthodox Sword Sect, which was an unimpressive flight of stairs that were filled with weeds.

    She took a quiet look at him before she sighed, "It must be a little forceful to make youe to this decision so hastily. If you regret it now and want to back off, I don''t me you at all. It is actually my fault. I can even escort you down the mountains."

    She saw that there seemed to be some hesitations in his eyes as they approached the down and out heaven steps. The image of a powerful and reputable celestial ny with how well the heaven steps looked like because everything may be worse than it looked in the inside than outside.

    "It isn''t that." Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly. "You are very beautiful."

    Along the way, he had been watching her swaying slim figure keenly. He had never thought that his little disciple would now be such a beautiful goddess.

    There was a slight flush on her countenance as she said mncholy, "Come with me."

    She took him to the inside and promptly introduced him to his two senior brothers. "This is your oldest prot¨¦g¨¦ brother Zhao Gang and this is your second prot¨¦g¨¦ brother Li Ming. This is Yuan Ji. From now on, he will be your third prot¨¦g¨¦ brother. Do not bully him and get along well with each other."

    Yuan Ji sighed and saw that the Orthodox Sword Saint was actually in such a poor state and had little talents now.

    "Yuan Ji, follow me to the inner hall. I shall impart to you our sect''s intricate form."

    "Yes master." He promptly said as he returned a respectful hand bow to his two older prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers who looked friendly enough.

 Chapter 2 Ye Chengxiâ€™s Secret

    Later at night, Yuan Ji could not sleep well.

    It was because he was suddenly thinking of Ye Chengxi. He began to wonder what she had experienced throughout the years.

    "Should I tell her that I am back already?"

    With a soft sigh, he had decided against that.

    He was a little ashamed of himself because he had lost the beard that he had always been so proud of. Moreover, she may not believe him either.

    He had a quick shback;

    "My Chengxi, from today onward you shall be the new sect leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect. I''m going to try to breakthrough to the seventh realm level."

    Ye Chengxi was startled as she asked, "Master, there is no need for you to hand over the sect to me. I can wait for you to be back."

    He had told her with a heavy sigh, "You may not know this. There is only a slim chance that I may seed. So it is better for me to hand over the sect leader position to you instead."

    Ye Chengxi nodded quietly, "Then I shall defend master''s Dao for you. As long as I live, I will not forsake the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    Then with a short hesitation, she asked. "Will I see master again soon?"

    He was smiling bitterly. He thought that he had just told her that he may not be back?

    But he smiled to her as he stroked his long beard, "Do you agree that my beard is the most beautiful beard in the celestial fraternity? When you see my beautiful beard again then that man is me."

    Ye Chengxi chuckled softly, "Master, you sound like you''re going to reincarnate soon. I hope¡­" Her eyes had turned watery before she said gently, "That my master will still be the same old master that I''ve known and that your Chengxi will still be the same little Chengxi that you''ve known."

    She was actually right.

    He had been thinking if he had failed to breakthrough to the seventh realm sacred saint level then he would want to reincarnate with his beautiful beard intact of course.

    Although he had made a sessful breakthrough but he had actually lost his beautiful beard. That was something that he had not expected.

    This was the same as taking his very own life!

    Maybe his beautiful beard had perished during his breakthrough to the seventh realm, taking over his supposed ce.

    With another deep sigh, "I will never forget the sacrifice that my beautiful beard had paid for my life¡­"

    But he soon found himself thinking about Ye Chengxi.

    "I didn''t take a close look at her thest time but why am I paying so much attention to her now?"

    "I''m not her master anymore. I''m no longer the Ji Yuan that was known to her. I have lost my beautiful beard now. I am now Yuan Ji¡­"

    He had realized that he had side tracked his reasons and he quicklye out with the most important reason; he had many enemies that had wanted him dead. If they know that he was back and had lost most of his profound strength, they would surely seize this golden opportunity to get rid of him.

    He still had to cultivate for another year or so before he could fully regain his profound strength.

    No, he would take far longer than that, considering that the Orthodox Sword Saint was now dirt poor.

    "What luck that I had met my former disciple and she had even taken me back as a prot¨¦g¨¦ of my own sect."

    Therefore he began to walk restlessly around the many pces and halls of the Orthodox Sword Sect. This brought back many fond memories to him.

    Many of the ces were quite dark and was not as lively as it used to be a hundred years ago.

    Soon he hade to a pce that had manynterns. He took a quick look and saw that this may be his master''s dwelling pce as this building looked the most magnificent and it was his former residence.

    Just as he was about to leave, he could pick Ye Chengxi''s voice and a man''s voice.

    This was Ye Chengxi''s inner pce. Why should there be a man in her inner pce?

    He was beginning to think that he had heard wrongly. Maybe his seventh realm divine sense was off due to his long years of seclusion?

    But the voice was clearly that of Ye Chengxi and not any of the female prot¨¦g¨¦s and the man''s voice was clearly that of Li Qiang that he had met earlier in the day.

    Curious, he had shed inside and was now looking inside her bed chamber through a small opening. Instead it was Ye Chengxi and Li Qiang; they appeared to be arguing with each other.

    "Ye Chengxi, you are a fifth realm golden cultivator, the head of your Orthodox Sword Sect and the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi that everyone has admired. Do you want to lose everything? Why don''t you submit willingly to me?" Li Qiang wasughing jovially.<sub> </sub>

    Ye Chengxi said icily, "Li Qiang, didn''t you say that you have an important message from the Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect? Since this is an official business, why don''t you tell me quickly and get lost from my inner pce? This isn''t the ce for you toe."

    Li Qiangughed, "That is because I really have an important message to pass to you and that is why I''m here."

    Ye Chengxi pointed to the entrance, "If you have nothing to say to me then get lost from here."

    Li Qiangughed, "I don''t like this attitude of yours. You still don''t get your situation right. If you still want to protect your Orthodox Sword Sect, you should serve me well first and stop giving me this icy look."

    Ye Chengxi averted her eyes before she said quietly, "What is it then?"

    "Aren''t you so haughty earlier in the day? And you have even used your sword to point at my throat. So where is your haughtiness now?" Li Qiang said coldly. "Do you know what you are supposed to do now?"

    Ye Chengxi quietly bended her knees on the ground before she said with trembling lips, "I beg for the forgiveness of Master Li Qiang. Chengxi will not do it again."

    "That is better." Li Qiang chuckled loudly.

    "What is it that your pce mistress wants you to convey to me?" Ye Chengxi asked quietly.

    Li Qiangughed, "Our Pce Mistress says that she is willing to renew her protection for your sect but the final decision will be in the hands of the four elders of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Ye Chengxi was quiet for a moment while Li Qiang was smiling, "I can of course put in a good word for you with the rest of the elders. After all, you know my position in my sect. However you should know what to do, am I right? I will give you one week to consider but don''t take too long to consider because I may change my mind about helping you."

    Ye Chengxi said quietly, "Please offer my gratitude to your Pce Mistress."

    Li Qiang''s eyes were wandering around her, feasting upon her allure.

    Ye Chengxi knew what he was thinking and said, "It is alreadyte now. You should go back now."

    "Don''t forget that you have only one week to consider." Li Qiang said coldly.

    Ye Chengxipletely ignored him and said coldly, "Please pardon Chengxi for not able to send you off."

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi, we still have plenty of opportunities in the future." With that, he had left.

    It was only when Li Qiang had left the room that Ye Chengxi had slowly stood up.

    Her countenance was still icy cool and she said slowly in a calm manner, "You cane out now. He had already left."

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh as he exited from his hiding ce. He had wanted to ask her why but he could not muster the words. He was now looking at her beautiful figure and was sighing heavily.

    "So you have seen it all." Ye Chengxi said quietly.

    "If I tell you that I didn''t see anything, will you believe me?" He asked.

    "I don''t believe." Ye Chengxi replied coolly.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "So are you going to silence me now?"

    Ye Chengxi lowered her nces as she shook her head lightly before saying. "My old master once told me that the sword is not meant to be used for ying the weak."

    "There are many ways to kill a person. It may not necessary be a sword." Yuan Ji smiled weakly.

    Ye Chengxi smiled coldly, "You are smart but you are not so smart to be caught by me this time."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly and thought, "I guess that tonight I will be killed by my former disciple. My profound strength has not recovered to the point that I can be on par with a golden celestial yet. But even if I have my profound strength back, I wouldn''t punish her. Instead it will be on Li Qiang."

    But what Ye Chengxi was going to say next, startled him. "You are secretly looking at me the whole time earlier? Am I really good to look at?"

    Yuan Ji never knew that this former disciple of his would have such a good figure and such a beautiful body. He was forced to agree with what he saw and said, "Very good to look at."

    Ye Chengxi had turned around now and had lowered her nces, "We shall have an equal exchange. You shall keep my secret and please do not let my prot¨¦g¨¦s know. In exchange, I shall let you have my body tonight."

    Yuan Ji was startled. "What did you just say?"

    "What do you say?" Ye Chengxi asked quietly.

    Yuan Ji was already on fire and he replied slowly, "In that case, I have decided to ept your term."

 Chapter 3 The Equal Exchange

    Ye Chengxi nodded quietly as she averted her eyes, "In that case¡­"

    "In that case, I''m going out now." Yuan Ji said and he was already walking to the exit.

    Ye Chengxi was startled as she gasped, "Didn''t we just agree on the term¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted softly, "I only agree to your term of keeping it a secret. Rest assures that I won''t tell anyone. There is no need for any equal exchange."

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Just as Yuan Ji was about to leave the room, he had turned back to ask curiously. "You''re serious just now?"

    Ye Chengxi had averted her eyes as she said quietly, "You are lucky to have won your life back. I am just testing your integrity."

    When Yuan Ji had heard her, he inhaled a soft sign of relief. He was really almost on fire earlier when she had made the proposal. But he had quickly calmed down and thought that she could not be serious.

    Ye Chengxi looked at his departing figure and her lips were trembling almost incoherent. "I''m serious¡­"

    After Yuan Ji was outside the pce gate, he began to clench his fists tightly as he cursed softly. "If I have my profound strength now, I will surely ughter this Li Qiang."

    Then he put his hand on the wall as he wept silently, "Chengxi, why have you fallen so low? Just because you want to protect the Orthodox Sword Sect? You''re such a fool¡­"

    "What has happened while I was in seclusion?"

    -

    -

    -

    The next day when he was practicing swordy with his two older prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers, he asked them. "Our sect condition doesn''t look so good?"

    Zhao Gangughed, "Our sect used to have a more glorious day. But things aren''t that bad since we have our master to lead us. Do you know that she is one of the four renowned beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Her fame and renown is known throughout the celestial fraternity!"

    Li Ming chuckled, "That''s right. Our master Fairy Ye Chengxi is also a golden celestial of the fifth realm cultivation level. I am not so talented and have no hope of bing a golden celestial in the future."

    Yuan Ji said, "I saw our master talking to Li Qiang yesterday. It seems that he doesn''t have a high opinion of our sect."

    Zhao Gang shook his head as he said solemnly, "Junior brother, you must be mistaken. Elder Li Qiang has been really helpful to our sect and he is really a friendly person. Even though he is an elder of a prominent celestial n but he is always respectful and humble toward us."

    "Senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother is right." Li Ming added with a smile.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He thought, "Don''t tell me that my two senior brothers are two simpletons? Do they know that this Li Qiang is actually up to no good?"

    Amon prot¨¦g¨¦ had suddenlye into the practice courtyard to say, "The senior core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect are here to see prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and they await in the hall now."

    Zhao Gang was startled, "Quick, attend to them with great politeness."

    Then he turned to say to Yuan Ji with a smile, "Junior brother,e with me to the hall. You ought to know who they are. These senior core prot¨¦g¨¦s are all so friendly to our sect."

    Yuan Ji nodded before he followed Zhao Gang and Li Ming to the waiting hall.

    In the waiting hall, there were two men who wereughing jovially.

    Zhao Gang promptly introduced them to Yuan Ji, "This is Yuan Ji, our third prot¨¦g¨¦ brother. He had just been initiated yesterday. They are Brother Hai Guotian and Brother Deng Chao. Please look after my junior brother in the future."

    Li Ming said respectfully, "Brother Hai is a fourth realm cultivation expert while Brother Deng Chao is a third realm cultivation expert. They are the senior core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Hai Guotianughed as he patted his pot belly, "Not at all. We are all fellow cultivators and we should take care of one another."

    Deng Chao was alsoughing jovially, "That''s right. Who knows if we need one another''s help in the future?"

    Yuan Ji simply said, "My greeting to Brother Hai, Brother Deng. I''m only a lowly cultivator. I will need your careful nurturing in the future."

    Hai Guotianughed, "We will, we will."

    At this moment, Ye Chengxi had appeared at the entrance of the hall as she said quietly. "Follow me inside."

    With that she had turned away before Yuan Ji, Li Ming and Zhao Gang could even greet her.

    Hai Guotian and Deng Chao had immediately hastened their steps after her.

    When they had left the hall, Yuan Ji asked. "Do theye often?"

    Li Ming replied, "That''s right."

    Yuan Ji frowned, "Do you think that it is a little strange that they are often here to visit?"

    Li Ming grinned, "Junior brother, you are overthinking things. Our sect has a poor upkeep. If it isn''t for them, our master will have a big headache in the upkeep of our sect. After all, we have slightly more than a hundred prot¨¦g¨¦s altogether and we have no other means of ie."

    "If it isn''t for the renown of our master and the grace of the Emperor Hall Sect, our sect may not even exist now." Zhao Gang added.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Please excuse me for a while. I''m not feeling too well." Yuan Ji said.

    -

    -

    -

    Ye Chengxi quietly asked Hai Guotian and Deng Chao, "What is it that you want?"

    Hai Guotian was smiling at the heavenly figure of Ye Chengxi and he was looking lecherously at her. "The Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi is really such an astonishing beauty in person. Every time that I am here, I cannot help but to praise you."

    Ye Chengxi said icily, "You are out of your ce. I''m your senior and¡­"

    Deng Chaoughed as he interrupted, "Have you forgotten that you still owe the two of us some ten thousand spirit stones?"<sub> </sub>

    Ye Chengxi looked away, "I will repay you as soon as possible¡­"

    "Repay with what?" Hai Guotian suddenly had a lecherous smile. "Isn''t it time for you to repay us with some interests first?"

    Ye Chengxi took a step back before she asked, "What is it that you want?"

    Hai Guotian said shamelessly, "We want you of course. I am always wondering what the bed of the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi is like."

    "Shameless!" Ye Chengxi had immediately rebuked him sharply but the two men had immediately surrounded her and were touching her.

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi, we have desired you for a long time¡­" Hai Guotian was suddenly gasping halfway as a sword had run through to him out of the blue.

    Deng Chao had turned ashen but before he could react, a sword that was so swift had shed in front of him and had cut him down.

    Their attacker was Yuan Ji who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

    Although he had not regained his profound strength yet but he could still deal with these lowly cultivators with his eyes closed.

    Ye Chengxi was gasping, "Do you know who they are? They are the senior prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect!"

    "So what?" Yuan Ji said quietly.

    Ye Chengxi was trembling and she seemed a little lost. "What shall we do now?"

    Yuan Ji said, "You can chain me up and send me to the Emperor Hall Sect. After all, I am the one that has killed them. This matter has nothing to do with you."

    "You will be sliced to pieces if I were to send you there." Ye Chengxi said quietly.

    "Isn''t the survival of the Orthodox Sword Sect more important to you than anything else?" Yuan Ji said.

    Ye Chengxi began to tremble. This was an undeniable fact. She had once promised her master that she would use her life to protect the Orthodox Sword Sect and to carry his torch for him.

    But she averted her eyes before she said with trembling lips, "Go now. As far as you can. This matter does not concern you. Go while before I''ve decided to change my mind."

    "How are you going to handle the Emperor Hall Sect if I were to leave now?" Yuan Ji asked.

    Ye Chengxi was rendered speechless by him. She had not thought of that yet.

    Yuan Ji was sighing softly. Some things would never change. Despite her advancement in cultivation level, Ye Chengxi had always been soft-hearted and it was easy for the others to manipte her.

    Ye Chengxi returned a weak smile, "I know what to do. Don''t worry about me. You should worry about yourself first. I can buy you some time for your escape."

    Yuan Ji smiled coldly, "So that is your best n?"

    Ye Chengxi turned her head away, "So do you have a better n?"

    "You are a fifth realm golden celestial in your own right. Surely you are not thinking of allowing them to trample upon your pride?" Yuan Ji asked quietly.

    Ye Chengxi began to stroke her beautiful long hair with trembling fingers, "Do you think that fighting will solve anything? Moreover, I''m only a puny fifth realm cultivator. The elders of the Emperor Hall Sect are all sixth realm cultivators. Do you think that Chengxi will be able to fight them? Will this solve the upkeep issues of my sect?"

    Yuan Ji said quietly, "You can choose to run away. No one can stop you from running away."

    Ye Chengxi smiled weakly and her eyes had grown mncholy, "My master won''t be too pleased if he knows."

    "Your master is long dead. You don''t have to uphold any promise to a dead man." Yuan Ji said.

    Ye Chengxi lit a faint smile, "This is a matter of principle. If I lose my principles than I won''t be able to advance in my cultivation."

    "But you are also willing to bend all your other principles because of one principle? Drop it." Yuan Ji said.

    "This one principle is the anchor of my soul sea. I will never be able to drop it." Ye Chengxi said quietly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji said, "Give me a week time. In the meantime, don''t do anything foolish."

    Ye Chengxi gasped softly, "What are you nning to do?"

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "Nothing. I have no better n too. Therefore I am going to surrender myself to the Emperor Hall Sect. Good bye¡­"

    All of a sudden Ye Chengxi had reached out to catch his wrist, "Don''t go¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled when she had suddenly caught hold of his wrist. There was an electrifying pulse in him when she had touched him.

    Ye Chengxi quickly let off of his wrist with a flushed look, "This¡­isn''t a good n. It is suicide."

    Yuan Ji smiled, "You can start by telling me all about the Emperor Hall Sect first."

    Ye Chengxi nodded and said, "The Emperor Hall Sect is led by the Pce Mistress and the four elders¡­"

    While she was exining the details of the Emperor Hall Sect to him, she was secretly flushing shyly and her ears were burning intensely.

    It was because she had never expected to see her old master again. She had actually recognized him on the very first day that they had met. With or without his beard, she knew all his little mannerisms by heart. It was just that she had never expected that her old master was actually such a dashing young man behind his ugly long beard.

    Ji Yuan was her old master''s name. And this young man had called himself Yuan Ji. She was actually not so gullible and knew that he had made up his name at the veryst minute when he was being questioned.

    But because she knew that her ''old'' master liked his face more than anything, she did not want to expose him that she actually knew who he was.

    She was actually thinking, "Isn''t it good this way? My master is now no longer my master and I am no longer his disciple. Whether he is a seventh realm saint or not, does it matter to me?"

    When she saw that her old master had lost his golden eyes, she thought that he had probably failed in his breakthrough attempt and was too ashamed to tell anyone about it. Moreover, she had used her divine sense to examine his profound strength and felt that he was now weaker than her.

    "Master, maybe this time round it is my turn to protect you?"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly startled when he saw that Ye Chengxi was suddenly staring at him with soft eyes.

    "Why is she looking at me in this manner? Is she thinking of silencing me on the sly?"

 Chapter 4 Xia Jiaqing

    The Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect, Xia Jiaqing was now sitting serenely on her throne in the Great Emperor Hall and standing in front of her were her four elders, Li Qiang, Hai Sheng, Deng Qiu and Tang Ao.

    The astonishing peerless beauty of Xia Jiaqing had never failed to astonish the four elders whenever they had an audience with her.

    Her exquisite stately appearance, coupled with her sparking golden eyes, a heavy and upright bosom, coupled with her revealing legs that reached to her waist could cause even a cultivator with a high level of divinity to go berserk with lust.

    But that was only normal or else Xia Jiaqing would not be renowned as one of four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Even the eyes of the four elders were constantly looking lecherous at her and they could not wait to tear off her clothing if they were given an opportunity.

    Today she had wound up her long hair into a cute bun on her left and a short pony tail on her right; she looked extremely appealing as she listened innocently to the reports of the four elders who were stripping her with their eyes.

    Xia Jiaqing looked a little disappointed when the reports had finished.

    "Are there any movements from Xue Qianxue?" She inhaled a soft sigh as she said gently.

    Xue Qianxue was the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and also a seventh realm golden saintess. She was also one of the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and was a hated rival of Xia Jiaqing.

    If there was a person that she could not stand, it was Xue Qianxue.

    Therefore she was always particrly interested to know what Xue Qianxue was always up to.

    "Ever since that shameless Xue Qianxue had be a saintess, she thinks that she is the number one heroine of the Deste Celestial Fraternity but she is nothing but a harlot." Xia Jiaqing really did not mince her words.

    Li Qiang quickly said, "There are no unusual movements from Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue."

    Xia Jiaqing frowned lightly, "Really? This is such an unusual month then."

    "Very well then. Dismiss¡­"

    All of a sudden, a prot¨¦g¨¦ had hastily entered the Great Emperor Hall and said panicky. "My respect to the Pce Mistress and the elders, I have something urgent to report."

    Li Qiang smiled coldly, "Speak."

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ had broken into cold sweat as he said, "There is a man name Yuan Ji outside. He has brought back the bodies of Hai Guotian and Deng Chao."

    When the prot¨¦g¨¦ had said that, Hai Sheng and Deng Qiu were taken aback and they had muttered out at the same time. "My son!..."

    Li Qiang clenched his fists, "I know this Yuan Ji¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing was also startled. "Who dares to kill our core prot¨¦g¨¦s? This Yuan Ji is the killer?"

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ shook his head with a frightened look, "He says that he isn''t the killer and had found the bodies. He even says that he is willing to join the Emperor Hall Sect as a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and he is asking for a reward for bringing back the bodies."

    Xia Jiaqing blinked her lovely eyes, "Core prot¨¦g¨¦¡­asking for a reward¡­what audacity¡­" She quickly recollected her thoughts and said coolly, "Summon him here. I want to question him personally. And bring the bodies here. I want to examine the wounds."

    Hai Sheng and Deng Qiu had immediately fallen on their knees, "Pce Mistress, you must seek redress for our sons!"

    Deng Qiu said grievously, "I say that he is the killer!"

    Hai Sheng bemoaned loudly, "My only son¡­Guotian, you are so pitiful! Who is so heartless as to take away your life¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing said coolly, "My elders, do not grieve further. I will surely seek redress for your sons'' deaths."

    A whileter, Yuan Ji had entered the Great Emperor Hall. Behind him were a dozen prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect and they were carrying two bodies on a stretcher.

    Xia Jiaqing gasped silently when she saw Yuan Ji, "What a dashing man. But why is that I found him so familiar?"

    When Yuan Ji had entered the hall and saw Xia Jiaqing, he was blinking his eyes and was staring at this peerless beauty. It was not because he was stunned by her beauty but it was because he had recognized her.

    He thought, "Isn''t she Xia Jiajia? Xia Jiajia is actually Xia Jiaqing?!"

    Xia Jiaqing had quickly shed to the two stretchers and had bended over to examine the bodies and she was followed by the four elders.

    Yuan Ji saw could see her beautiful exposed white shoulders from where he was standing and his sharp eyes could see that she was wearing a white panties.<sub> </sub>

    He had nearly nose bleed from her beautiful sexy appearance but he quickly steeled his heart. "She is the enemy of my Orthodox Sword Sect. If it isn''t for her and her Emperor Hall Sect, Ye Chengxi won''t be in this state."

    Finally Xia Jiaqing said quietly, "This is the work of a super swordsman. They had died instantly with no pain."

    Li Qiang had also concluded the same, "Their killer must be at least a fifth realm expert. Do you think it may be Fairy Ye Chengxi?"

    Xia Jiaqing shook her head, "I know her. Her swordy isn''t that swift and¡­ruthless. Therefore the killer isn''t her or him."

    Him referred to Yuan Ji.

    Li Qiang turned to stare coldly at Yuan Ji, "I know you. You are that young man that I''ve met previously. Why are you here?"

    Yuan Ji said politely, "Actually I have some regrets after I had joined the Orthodox Sword Sect. Therefore I have bid my former Master Ye Chengxi farewell and have made my way here. On my way here, I''ve found the bodies of these men. I have recognized them when they hade to the Orthodox Sword Sect for a visit¡­"

    p Xia Jiaqing asked unhappily, "Why did they go to the Orthodox Sword Sect for? Who gives them the permission?"</anda>

    All of a sudden the four elders were all stammering, "This¡­that¡­"

    Hai Sheng quickly said, "Some of the interests are due. So I had asked my son to pay Fairy Ye Chengxi a visit¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing returned a cold stare at him, "When did I say you can collect any interest from Fairy Ye Chengxi? Have you forgotten what I have said? Am I not the Pce Mistress?"

    Hai Sheng stammered, "Yes, yes¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he thought, "She isn''t aware? Or is she putting an act in front of me?"

    Then Xia Jiaqing had turned to look at Yuan Ji with a smile, "Thank you for bringing them back. I will make an exception for you. As your reward, you shall be made a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Li Qiang protested immediately, "I think we can just make him amon prot¨¦g¨¦. He isn''t fit to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and he may be a spy of the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    When they had first met, Li Qiang had said to Yuan Ji about making him a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Emperor Hall Sect, it was never as a core prot¨¦g¨¦.

    Xia Jiaqing said coldly, "I have already decided. Dismiss."

    Hai Sheng and Deng Qiu immediately said, "What about the deaths of our sons?"

    Xia Jiaqing hummed coldly, "The deaths of your sons are not the work of the Orthodox Sword Sect. This, I am pretty sure. They must have offended some powerful cultivators with their ugly appearances.

    Hai Sheng and Deng Qiu were stunned by Xia Jiaqing heartless words. She had called their sons ugly and seemingly hinted to them that they should be killed.

    "Dismiss! What are you waiting for?" Xia Jiaqing said coldly. "As for this new core prot¨¦g¨¦, he can stay here for a while. I have some questions for him."

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes. She had not changed after all these years. One of these days, she would surely die without knowing even why.

    When Hai Sheng and Deng Qiu had left the hall, they were trembling with hatred. This did not escape Yuan Ji''s eyes but it seemed that it had escaped Xia Jiaqing''s notice.

    When the four elders had left the hall, Xia Jiaqing had turned to him with a wryly smile. "So, between your former master Fairy Ye Chengxi and me, who is the prettier?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    The female attendants behind Xia Jiaqing were all giggling at the question.

    But Yuan Ji could see the murderous intent that was in Xia Jiaqing''s lovely eyes.

    If he answered wrongly then he would be dead in the next instant.

    But he raised his head to say, "Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­"

    All of a sudden the female prot¨¦g¨¦s at the back stopped their giggling and they had turned ashen.

    Even the smile that was on Xia Jiaqing hadpletely vanished and her lovely eyes were looking coldly at him.

 Chapter 5 Xia Jiajia

    Yuan Ji repeated, "Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­"

    "She is like a heavenly fairy, her grace is the most beautiful grace and her heavenly loftiness is the most admirable." Yuan Ji added.

    Xia Jiaqing was trembling lightly as she stared coldly at Yuan Ji.

    "But after I have seen Pce Mistress, I now know what a goddess looks like. If Ye Chengxi is a heavenly fairy then my Pce Mistress is like a heavenly goddess." Yuan Ji continued to say without faltering.

    All of a sudden Xia Jiaqing was smiling. "And what about Xue Qianxue? How does shepare to me? Who is prettier?"

    Yuan Ji began to scratch his face, "I have never seen her before but I have heard that her Celestial Orthodox Sect only have female prot¨¦g¨¦s. Therefore I think she may be a littlecking in the eyes of men."

    Xia Jiaqing was smiling nonstop now. She whispered to him out of the earshot of her personal attendants, "The others only know how to tter me with their one side ttering but you are smarter than them."

    Then she said aloud, "Your name is Yuan Ji? I like your honesty. You''re such an honest man."

    Then Yuan Ji was startled when she had suddenly whispered to him. But he quickly said. "If it isn''t for Pce Mistress whom is willing to ce your trust in me and even reward me for bringing back the two bodies, I may have already been executed. Therefore I think that Pce Mistress can also be considered a virtuous heavenly goddess."

    Xia Jiaqing was absolutely delighted that there was someone who was idolizing her. "From today onward you will be a senior core prot¨¦g¨¦ of our sect."

    She pointed to her attendants, "Hurry and give him the senior prot¨¦g¨¦ token."

    The female prot¨¦g¨¦s were shocked.

    "Pce Mistress, are you sure about this? He is only a neer. We have a strict advancement in our sect¡­"

    "Do as I''ve said." Xia Jiaqing said willfully. "Can''t you all see that he has done our sect a meritorious service by bringing back the bodies of our two senior prot¨¦g¨¦s? If we don''t reward him with the appropriate return, who will dare to be honest with us in the future? If we have more dead bodies in the future then won''t they be rotting in the wilderness for the deste beasts?"

    "Yes, Pce Mistress¡­" the many female personal attendants said at the same time, giving her a half-bow.

    Yuan Ji smiled, "I thank Pce Mistress for your grace. Your generosity is second only to the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue."

    Xia Jiaqing frowned lightly, "I am only second to her?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "I''ve heard that Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is always giving doubly reward for the deserving and she has a generous reputation."

    Xia Jiaqing asked, "If I make you an elder, will I be considered to be more generous than her?"

    Yuan Ji replied nonchntly, "Naturally Pce Mistress will be considered the generous virtuous heavenly goddess."

    Xia Jiaqing chuckled softly, "I won''t fall for your honeb tricks." Then she turned to say to her personal attendants. "Give him the elder token. From today onward, he will be an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Not only were the personal attendants greatly shocked when they had heard their Pce Mistress but also Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji actually did not expect that she would suddenly make him an elder. He actually knew her as Xia Jiajia and knew of her rivalry for Xue Qianxue. Therefore he was actually only trying to provoke her.

    "Pce Mistress, this is¡­"

    "Didn''t Pce Mistress say that she won''t fall for his honeb tricks¡­"

    "Shouldn''t Pce Mistress have a discussion with the other elders first?"

    Xia Jiaqing hummed coldly, "Do as I say. Hurry."

    "Yes Pce Mistress¡­"

    When Yuan Ji received the elder token, he said. "Yuan Ji thanks Pce Mistress for the appointment."

    Xia Jiaqing winked at him as she smiled, "So Elder Yuan, don''t disappoint me and I hope to see more of your contributions to the sect in the future."

    -

    -

    -

    It was night and Yuan Ji was lying on the roof top. He was biting a straw and was feeling his empty chin as he looked at the full moon.

    As he stared at the full moon, he began to reflect upon hisst scene with Ye Chengxi; after she had briefed him on the Emperor Hall Sect, he had suddenly said to her. "Thank you. I''m going to the Emperor Hall Sect now."

    Ye Chengxi gasped, "You are still going to court your own death? Why don''t you learn to cherish your own life?"

    He smiled and pointed to the two dead bodies, "Someone has to give a proper ounting before it is toote, am I right? Don''t worry, I will be fine."<sub> </sub>

    Ye Chengxi shook her head as she looked up at him with mncholy eyes, "You won''t be alright. This Pce Mistress is extremely fickle minded. She doesn''t follow the norm."

    But he had said to her, "It is worth a try. If you have never tried, you will never know."

    There was a sudden smile on Ye Chengxi as she averted her eyes, "My old master has once said the same thing to me. Before he had gone into seclusion, this is hisst words."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He snapped out of his trace and began to rub his clean chin, "I mustn''t let her know that I''m her old master. If she knows that I''ve lost my beautiful beard then I will be aughing stock in her eyes and my good reputation as her respected old master will forever be tarnished. Therefore I can only help her discreetly."

    Then his thoughts had returned to Xia Jiaqing. "Isn''t she Xia Jiajia? Why is she here? Most importantly, why has she founded a rival celestial n next to my Orthodox Sword Sect?"

    The Emperor Hall Sect certainly did not exist a hundred years ago and it was founded by Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing out of the blue as she united several smaller celestial ns into the Emperor Hall Sect.

    The Emperor Hall Sect had quickly risen to prominence and had dominated the Five Heavens Peaks, leaving just a few celestial ns like the Orthodox Sword Sect in its nearby vicinity. As of now, the Five Heavens Peaks was now known as the domain of the Emperor Hall Sect with the smaller celestial ns suppressed into almost non-existent.

    "To think that I had once saved her life from Xue Qianxue and because of that, I had almost lost my life¡­how can she be so ungrateful as to bully my Orthodox Sword Sect?"

    He began to sigh heavily.

    A hundred years ago, he had saved Xia Jiajia from the hot pursue of Xue Qianxue and had offended her. At that time, Xia Qianxue was already a seventh realm cultivation expert and was a saintess. She was just a step short of being a Great Saintess if she could reach the upper seventh realm level. There was no eighth realm cultivation level and seventh realm cultivation experts were all greatly feared.

    He was an upper sixth realm golden supremacy back then while Xia Jiajia was only a peaked fifth realm golden celestial and they were not the match of Saintess Xue Qianxue who was a middle tier seventh realm golden saintess.

    Therefore when Xue Qianxue had threatened to cut off his beautiful beard and painted his naked face as a portrait, he had decided that this was thest straw. That was the main reason why he had suddenly decided to take the gambit to breakthrough to the seventh realm level.

    Now, in the realm of cultivation there were altogether seven cultivation levels. From the fifth realm onward, the cultivator must undergo a life and death tribtion in order to ovee their cultivation limitations. It was extremely risky.

    But basically, from the fifth realm onward, the cultivators were basically known as golden celestials and were half-step immortals. They would never need food, water and even their organs would regenerate, drawing upon the spiritual force of the mountains to empower them.

    The golden celestials were the true cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they had celestial titles that reflected their lofty statuses; Fifth realm experts were known as Celestial, sixth realm experts were known as Supremacy and seventh realm experts were known as Saint. Those that could reach the upper seventh realm level were known as the Great Saint. The Great Saints were the true powers of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and there were only just a few handfuls.

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh and just as he was about to retire for the night, he had heard some noises below.

    He took a peek and saw that it was Elder Hai Sheng and he was talking to a female prot¨¦g¨¦.

    Yuan Ji had recognized the female prot¨¦g¨¦ to be a personal attendant of Xia Jiaqing.

    At this moment Elder Hai Sheng appeared to be ''ying'' with this female prot¨¦g¨¦ and he was saying plenty of lewd things to her.

    Then it got extremely steamy below.

    Yuan Ji gave a disinterested look and he was about to leave quietly when Elder Hai Sheng said to the female prot¨¦g¨¦, "I know that tonight you will be on duty. Put this ting Happiness Powder in her bed chamber and on her pillow. Put a few pinch into her tea as well."

    The female prot¨¦g¨¦ was gasping softly, "If Pce Mistress knows about this, I will be dead."

    "Don''t worry. She won''t know."

    "But she is a golden supremacy. Poisons and toxins don''t work on her¡­"

    "This is the magic of this ting Happiness Powder. She will never know about it. When the deed is done, I will reward you handsomely and will request for you to be  my concubine."

    "Really? Then¡­I will do it¡­"

    "Good. Put on your clothing now and go now." Hai Sheng chuckled softly.

    After the personal attendant was gone, Hai Sheng was smirking. "Xia Jiaqing, my son''s death will not be in vain. Tonight I shall make you pay dearly for this. You have even made a man of unknown origin an elder of our sect. Do you really think the Emperor Hall Sect is your personal sect?"

    Then with another soft chuckle he added, "I will like to see the humiliating look that is on your beautiful face as you beg me for more¡­"

    Yuan Ji was frowning silently, "If she really do as he has instructed, I''m afraid that she will surely be dead in the next morning. This Hai Sheng is really too wicked."

    He knew that Hai Sheng would surely silence this foolish personal attendant to cover his own tracks.

    "This is none of my business¡­I just pretend that I never hear anything¡­"

    But when he thought that Xia Jiaqing would be vited by such a man, he felt indignant and he began to follow the personal attendant.

    "Maybe I will just take a little look."

    Then with another sigh, "I''m helping Xia Jiajia and not Xia Jiaqing¡­"

 Chapter 6 The Bathroom Encounter

    When Yuan Ji had reached the inner pce of Xia Jiaqing, he proceeded to sneak quietly inside. With his superior lightness skill, this was not a real issue.

    The real issue was, he was still caught in a dilemma whether he should aid Xia Jiaqing or not.

    Just then his heart was throbbing furiously. It was because Xia Jiaqing had just stepped out from the scented pool that was in her inner pce and there were four personal female attendants that were immediately helping to dry her.

    Xia Jiaqing was of course not wearing anything when she had stepped out of the pool and Yuan Ji was gasping in astonishment at every inch of her body. The vision of a seventh realm cultivator was extremely sharp even though he had not regained the bulk of his profound strength.

    He covered his eyes with his fingers but he was still looking intently between his fingers at the naked Xia Jiaqing. "This is for the purpose of research. I mean¡­this is the best opportunity to check if she has any secret weapons on her if a fight breaks out between us."

    Below, Xia Jiaqing had tilted her head to one side and Yuan Ji could see her beautiful firm twin peaks and the thin grasnd that was between her legs. Nothing was out of ce and she was like a beautiful sculpture that could awe any men.

    There were just a few strays of loosen hair on her face while the rest of her long hair was bundled up high like a crown. This only enhanced her astonishing beauty and her loveliness.

    Her four personal attendants had gently finished drying her up as they began to carry trays after trays of lingeries and clothing for her to pick.

    Xia Jiaqing''s delicate golden eyes were upon the trays and she was gasping with delight as she wandered her eyes from tray to tray.

    She did not know that Yuan Ji''s eyes were peeking at her and was thinking, "She looks better if she doesn''t wear anything¡­"

    But he quickly steeled his heart, "She is the one that has caused my Orthodox Sword Sect to fall into disarray. I won''t forgive her."

    After a while, Xia Jiaqing finally picked a body lingerie and a silk robe as she giggled. "Help me to dress up."

    Yuan Ji was frowning silently, "She is sozy. Hmm, she didn''t pick a under lingerie or a pant¡­"

    "You are all dismissed. I''m retiring to my bed chamber." Xia Jiaqing said to them promptly.

    "Yes Pce Mistress." All four of the personal attendants said at the same time as they politely left the bathroom and their eyes had never looked up from the ground from start to finish.

    When Xia Jiaqing had stepped out of the bathroom, the same female personal attendant that Yuan Ji had seen with Hai Sheng was already standing at the entrance.

    Before long, they were already in the bed chamber that belonged to Xia Jiaqing.

    "Pce Mistress, your tea is ready." The personal attendant said and in her hands was a tray that carried a teapot.

    Xia Jiaqing had suddenly said mncholy, "I don''t want any tea tonight."

    The personal attendant was startled and she began to stammer, "Pce Mistress, you¡­don''t want¡­your tea¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing hummed coldly as she turned to stare at her, "What is wrong? You''re dismissed. And take the tray away. It is an eye sore."<sub> </sub>

    The female personal attendant stammered, "Yes¡­Pce Mistress¡­" She hastily left the bed chamber as she knew that the Pce Mistress did not like to repeat herself. She took a quick nce at the pillow that was on the bed before leaving hastily.

    When the female personal attendant had left the room, Xia Jiaqing began to sigh heavily as she took out a sk of wine and began to pour it down her throat.

    Yuan Ji was startled. Now this really looked like the Xia Jiajia that he had known in the past. Whenever they had gone drinking together, she would take the entire sk and pour it down her throat.

    Slowly she began to rise from her seat and had walked into another room that was in her bed chamber.

    She seemed to be staring mncholy at a painting that was hanging on the wall; it was a man with a long ck beard.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "That handsome man with the beautiful beard in the painting, isn''t that me?" With just a look he had recognized himself but he could not resist adding ''handsome man'' and ''beautiful beard'' to describe himself.

    Xia Jiaqing began to pour the remaining wine on the floor, "Ji Yuan, this is for you. How long has it been now? A hundred years of loneliness have passed now¡­"

    Although her voice was extremely soft but to a seventh realm expert like Yuan Ji, it was quite audible in his ears.

    "Do you know that I''ve been waiting for your return in the Five Heavens Peaks for a hundred years now? My heart is longing to see you again but you have never returned. You have lied to me. Do you know that you have made me wait for a hundred years for your return? I have even founded the Emperor Hall Sect so that I can look after your Orthodox Sword Sect."

    "This wine is your favorite wine. I hope that you will like it¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled, "She still remembers me? But I can''t acknowledge her now. I''ve lost my beautiful beard¡­"

    "Do you know that today I''ve met a young man that has a pair of immerse eyes that resemble your eyes? But he is not you. He doesn''t have your beautiful golden eyes. I so much wish that it is you today and not him¡­" Her lovely voice was mncholy and was heart rending.

    Yuan Ji was moved and he was clenching his fists, "Maybe I should really let her know that I am still alive and continued on our little romance¡­" His thoughts were all on her naked body that he had identally saw earlier.

    "But do you know that this young man actually looks so much better than you with your ugly beard?" Xia Jiaqing was suddenly giggling.

    Yuan Ji''s countenance had suddenly turned ugly when he had heard her, "She doesn''t like my beautiful beard?! Then why did she say that she thought that my beard is the most beautiful beard in the past?! So this is really what she thinks. I''m so wrong about her."

    "Therefore I''ve decided to forget about you and start a new life. I hope that you won''t be envious of this Yuan Ji." Xia Jiaqing chuckled softly.

    When Yuan Ji had heard her, he had nearly flipped over and slipped down from the roof. "She is so heartless! Wait a minute, I am jealous of myself?"

    "It is time for me to retire in bed now and dream of this dashing young man." Xia Jiaqing giggled softly as she began to turn around to walk to her bed.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    But Yuan Ji was suddenly rmed, "Her pillow has been rigged by that personal attendant¡­"

 Chapter 7 Finding A Lame Excuse

    As Yuan Ji watched Xia Jiaqing walked to her bed in her inner bed chamber, he spotted Elder Hai Sheng sneaking into the inner court and he was quietly approaching Xia Jiaqing''s inner pce.

    He knew that this Hai Sheng was definitely up to no good.

    Although Xia Jiaqing had just dropped a bomb shell on him but he could not bear to see her suffer such a humiliating fate. He knew that this ''ting Happiness Powder'' was particr powerful. One dose and she would do anything that Hai Sheng wanted her to do.

    With a soft sigh, he slipped down the roof.

    He had to act before Xia Jiaqing could touch her pillow¡­

    Hai Sheng by now had quietly approached the inner court. He had been informed by Xia Jiaqing''s personal attendant that she did not take the drugged tea. But he was not worried; he could still wait until she was lying on her bed with her pillow. After all, he had nned a two-step safeguard in order to ensure that he could Xia Jiaqing and made her into his woman.

    Yuan Ji had put on a veil as he watched Hai Sheng. He knew that he could not fight a golden supremacy directly given that he had not regained his profound strength yet. What he had nned to do was just to distract him and to find an opportunity to take Xia Jiaqing away.

    All of a sudden the door had suddenly swung open and Xia Jiaqing was standing at the entrance as she hugged a pillow on her bosom.

    "Elder Hai Sheng, what are you doing in my inner pce at this hour?"

    Hai Sheng was startled and he hadpletely turned ashen while stammering, "I¡­erm¡­I saw some masked men and fear that they are assassins sent by the other celestial ns. I was worried for Pce Mistress and have decided to take a look."

    Xia Jiaqing giggled softly, "So I see! Thank you for your concern but it will be difficult for any assassins to sneak past my eyes. Don''t you think so?"

    Hai Sheng immediately nodded, "Yes, yes. I''m so d that Pce Mistress is fine. If not I won''t be able to sleep tonight. Hahaha."

    "In that case, I shall reward you with a scented pillow." Xia Jiaqing had suddenly thrown her pillow at him. "Good night then."

    Hai Sheng was suddenly coughing when the pillow had suddenly struck him and his face had suddenly turned extremely red.

    "Don''t be shy, alright? Just treat it as my reward for your loyalty. It is not the same as sleeping with me." Xia Jiaqing chuckled softly. "Dismiss."

    "Yes, yes." Hai Sheng quickly said as he fled immediately with the pillow.

    When Yuan Ji had heard her, he was groaning silently. "What a bimbo. She doesn''t know that Hai Sheng has his sight on her tonight. She sure is lucky. No wonder they say that bimbos usually have good luck¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing had suddenly turned her head to where Yuan Ji was hiding as she interrupted his thoughts, "How long are you nning to hide? Don''t tell me that you want to watch my sleeping posture for the entire night or are you nning something malicious?"

    Yuan Ji was startled. "Have I been discovered? No, it shouldn''t be. She is such a bimbo. She shouldn''t have noticed that I am here. She is just having a lucky guess. I won''t fall for her tricks¡­"

    "Yuan Ji. I know that you are there. Why don''t youe and greet your Pce Mistress?" Xia Jiaqing said coolly. Then she raised her hand, "Or you want to force my hand?"<sub> </sub>

    With a soft sigh, Yuan Ji had stepped out of his hiding ce. He quickly bowed with his hands, "My greeting to the Pce Mistress. I was actually after some masked assassins when I''ve identallye to this ce. I didn''t know that this ce is your inner pce."

    He was thinking, "If Hai Sheng can use this excuse to get off the hook, so can I."

    "This excuse has already been used by Hai Sheng. Why don''t you try harder?" She coolly said.

    Yuan Ji was stunned as he thought silently. "What the hell? What is this logic?"

    "You must be thinking why Hai Sheng can use this excuse but you can''t? Am I right?" Xia Jiaqing smiled coldly at him.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. Indeed but he was not going to reply her until he had thought of a better excuse. Acknowledgement was a bad mistake at this point.

    "That is because I know that you are peeping at me when I''m in the bathroom." Xia Jiaqing said coolly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was now thinking, "Crap! I''ve been discovered¡­"

    "So, am I good to look at?" Xia Jiaqing asked with a faint smile.

    Yuan Ji was startled. You knew that I was looking at you and yet you still allow me to watch you from top to bottom for such a long time¡­

    He was totally speechless.

    But she was actually really enticing to look at. She was indeed one of the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­

    Yuan Ji quickly shook these thoughts away from his head. It was because if he dares to admit to anything, he would be a dead man tonight. Therefore he said with a straight face, "I am really chasing after the masked assassins when I havee into this ce. As for Pce Mistress, even though I am really tempted to look but I didn''t have the courage to look. But because I am worried that the masked assassins would still be around so I have stayed put."

    Xia Jiaqing rolled her eyes before she chuckled softly, "Well,e inside. I have something to discuss with you tonight."

    Yuan Ji quickly said, "It is not appropriate for me to enter your bed chamber. There may be gossip¡­"

    "Come in unless you don''t want your life anymore." Xia Jiaqing said coldly as she turned her back on him.

    With a deep sigh, Yuan Ji began to follow after her.

 Chapter 8 I Didnâ€™t Peep

    When Yuan Ji was inside her bed chamber, Xia Jiaqing had suddenly turned around to smile at him. "So, do you think that I will believe you?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was not about to admit defeat so easily.

    It was because he had full faith in his stealth ability and he was once a golden supremacy. Therefore he knew he was out of range of her divine sense. He did not believe that she would actually know that he had been peeping.

    Therefore he said with a full straight face, "I am not a lecherous man. I hope that Pce Mistress will believe me. I can stake my entire honor that I am telling the truth. You know that if cultivators lie then our soul sea will be affected and it would be difficult for us to advance in our cultivation realm in the future."

    He was actually thinking, "Since I am already a saint now and the great saint realm is still so far away, heck care about my soul sea first."

    Xia Jiaqing slowly pointed to the mirrors in her bathroom and around the bed chamber, "I saw your reflection through these mirrors. Not only are you peeping with interest but you are also drooling."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    It was then that he had noticed that there were many mirrors in her inner pce.

    Suddenly he had a sheepish look. Although he knew the range of her divine sense but he had forgotten how sharp the eyesight of a golden supremacy was.

    "This¡­erm¡­I can exin¡­" He was suddenly stammering.

    Indeed, he had been drooling nonstop earlier.

    Xia Jiaqing nodded lightly as she asked gently, "So what do you have to say now?"

    Yuan Ji quickly said, "Actually Pce Mistress, I do have something very important to tell you. I am afraid that you will not believe me so I didn''t want to tell you. But now at this stage, I''m left with no other choice but to tell you what I know."

    He inhaled softly before blurting out, "Do you know that Elder Hai Sheng has conspired with your personal attendant to drug your tea with the ted Happiness Powder? Do you know that your pillow is alsoced with the ted Happiness Powder? If it isn''t for me¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing interrupted with a faint smile, "Do you mean that if it isn''t for you then I will be a victim?"

    Yuan Ji pped his hands, "Precisely!"

    "Then what did you do?" Xia Jiaqing smiled.

    Yuan Ji was stunned. "What did I do?"

    "You didn''t do anything. Maybe you are more interested in finding out what will happen? Some people have that fetish." Xia Jiaqing said casually as she folded her naked leg.

    Yuan Ji was staring between her naked folded legs. He knew that she was not wearing anything inside¡­

    But he quickly pulled his eyes from her beautiful legs or else he would soon be a dead man as he said solemnly, "I have the evidences. You can examine the teapot and the pillow."

    Xia Jiaqing nodded with a soft chuckle, "So where are the teapot and the pillow now?"

    Yuan Ji was stunned.

    That is right. Where are the teapot and the pillow now?!

    He was now standing between the thin lines of getting killed by her and he could not exin himself now.

    Now he was being treated like a lecherous man that had peeped at her rather than someone who was trying toe to her aid. This was something that he had not expected.

    "Chengxi, your old master is so useless¡­" He was sighing woefully deep in his heart now. He could not imagine Li Qiang running his hands all over her body when he was gone and he was trembling now.

    "Elder Yuan Ji, why are you trembling? I didn''t say anything about punishing you or killing you." Xia Jiaqing smiled.

    Yuan Ji stammered, "You''re¡­not going to kill me?"

    Xia Jiaqing had got up of the chair to her bed and was now reclined her body on her bed as she nodded lightly, "It will be a pity to kill such a dashing man like you, am I not wrong to say so?"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he thought, "Don''t tell me that she wants to make me her harem ve? I will rather die than submit to her¡­"

    Then he quickly changed his mind, "It is better than dead. It isn''t so bad to copte with a devil body like her¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Xia Jiaqing was looking intently at Yuan Ji now and she was smiling. It was because she had already recognized him. Even though he did not have his ugly beard now but she had recognized his eyes and his voice when he had shown up again. She knew that he had prided his ugly beard dearly and had purposely put on an act in front of him back then.

    And earlier, she had put on an act to forget about Ji Yuan.

    But how could she forget about a man that she had been pinning for a hundred years? She even had his portrait in her bed chamber so that she could look at him day in and night out. And now, he had finally returned and the best part was, he did not have his ugly beard with him anymore.

    She immediately knew that he may have lost his beard during his golden body transformation. This sort of thing frequently happened to both men and women that were undergoing their golden celestial body transformation; the men would lose their beards while women would lose their pubic hairs.

    Suddenly she was smiling, "Actually I''ve already known that the teapot and the pillow have been tampered with."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "You know?"

    Xia Jiaqing was giggling, "I have a secret. My nose is particr sensitive to these scents but at the same time I am also immune to these scents due to a special skill that I''ve been practicing."

    Yuan Ji was blinking his eyes. He had totally forgotten that she was immune to the ting Happiness Powder. When he was with her in the past, he had known about it but because it had been such a long time, he had totally forgotten about it.

    "So don''t let anyone knows." Xia Jiaqing chuckled.

    Yuan Ji muttered weakly, "Alright. So you believe me now?"

    Xia Jiaqing nodded gently.

    "What are you nning to do with Elder Hai Sheng?" He asked curiously. He was actually secretly delighted that Hai Sheng may lose his life formitting such a despicable act against his Pce Mistress. With Hai Sheng down, there would be one less powerful cultivator for him to deal with.

    "Nothing." Xia Jiaqing said quietly.

    Yuan Ji nearly flipped over when he had heard her. "Nothing?!" He was startled. "This is a most despicable act and a treason against his sect leader. This is treachery at its most wickedness!"

    Xia Jiaqing said, "I still need his help to fend off the other elders and also my arch rival Xue Qianxue. Therefore he is useful to me."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "You must be really curious why, am I right?" She asked.

    Yuan Ji slowly nodded.

    "Do you think that I can establish the Emperor Hall Sect on my own without any influences? I owe it to the four elders. We are all merely making use of each other." She exined matter of fact.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "So you have made me an elder as a counter measure against the other elders?"

    Xia Jiaqing smiled, "Why are you so smart? With you around to distract them, I can have some peace finally."

    "You are not afraid that I may be in cahoots with them or tell them what you have told me?" Yuan Ji asked.

    Xia Jiaqing giggled softly, "I''m not afraid. I have told them exactly the same thing when I''ve recruited them as elders."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "And I can see from your eyes that you don''t seem to like them so much, am I right?" She added.

    "Are you sure that you are running a prot¨¦g¨¦ n here?" He asked bitterly.

    Xia Jiaqing averted her eyes before she lowered her head to say, "I am waiting for a man to appear but he never appears. We have made a hundred year pledge to wait for each other¡­"

    Then she turned to look at him and said, "Do you agree that he is a heartless man? He says that he wille to look for me once he has be a saint and that he will protect me from Xue Qianxue. But in the end, he never returns."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Maybe he is already dead."

    Xia Jiaqing returned a mncholy look at him before she said quietly, "He is dead in my heart now."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

 Chapter 9 The Secret Deal

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he looked at Xia Jiaqing.

    He was thinking what to say to her.

    After a quick ponder, he said. "I can help you to deal with the four elders but on one condition."

    Xia Jiaqing shifted her eyes before asking, "What is it?"

    "I want to have free ess to the cultivation resources of the Emperor Hall Sect. I''m not greedy. I only want the third grade pills like the Rejuvenation Strength Pills, Iron Blood Pills, Tendon Grip Pills and the Energy Meridian Pills." Yuan Ji said.

    These were the pills that he needed to regain his profound strength slowly and were rtive cheap for a major sect like the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Xia Jiaqing was a little surprised, "You don''t want the fourth, fifth and sixth rank pills?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Fourth rank pills will be expensive and the other elders won''t be happy. As for fifth and sixth rank pills, I doubt you have many or even none at all."

    In the Celestial Realm, sixth rank pills were considered to be divine pills and almost unheard of for any cultivator to possess one. Maybe there were skilled alchemists in the Nine Celestial Fraternity that were capable of concocting one but there were definitely no alchemists in the Deste Celestial Fraternity that could concoct one.

    As for fifth rank pills, it was extremely rare and cost a bomb. If the Emperor Hall Sect had one or two then it may already be considered to be fairly good. There were many major celestial ns that did not even possess a single fifth rank pill at all.

    Therefore Yuan Ji was actually making a reasonable proposition to the Pce Mistress.

    Xia Jiaqing said, "Do you think that you will be helpful to me? The four elders are sixth realm golden supremacy. What about your cultivation realm?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly before he said quickly said, "Fourth realm immortal celestial level now."

    "You''re not even a golden celestial yet. How can you help me?" Xia Jiaqing asked curiously.

    "Although my profound strength is weaker than the four elders but I am smarter than them. Moreover because I''m a lowly cultivator therefore you know that you can confide in me without feeling that I will be a threat to you." He pointed out.

    <o>,m Xia Jiaqing smiled, "Do you think that I can trust your mere words? I am not a foolish young maiden¡­"</o>

    "I can also help you to deal with Xue Qianxue. I know everything about her, including her weakness." He added.

    Xia Jiaqing replied slowly, "Your request is reasonable. If you are also willing to help me to deal with Xue Qianxue, then I can give you the benefit of doubt. But howe these pills are more for the purpose of regaining one''s profound strength than actually meant for gaining profound strength?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Haha." He tried tough it off while trying to cook up an excuse in his mind. "I have just ovee my cultivation realm and that is why I need these pills. If my inner spiritual sea is weak, how will I be able to help you?"

    Xia Jiaqingughed softly, "You are right. Deal then."

    She began to shift her legs to get off her bed.

    But at this moment, Yuan Ji''s sharp eyes could see between her two legs and he was suddenly flustered.<sub> </sub>

    Xia Jiaqing was also flushing on her cheeks as she was suddenly aware what he was looking at. Although nudity wasmon among the cultivators but this was another matter entirely.

    With a softugh, she tried to quickly put this matter aside as she walked to the table before she poured a cup of wine for him with a smile, "A toast to our secret agreement then."

    Yuan Ji returned a smile, "A toast to our future co-operation then."

    But he was actually thinking, "Xia Jiajia or Xia Jiaqing. Although you may im to be protecting my sect but this is merely your side of the story. I will find out more first. Even if you are my past friend but I can''t forgive you for what you and your sect has done to my sect and to¡­Ye Chengxi."

    With a soft sigh to himself, "Let hope that you are as innocent as you''ve imed to be."

    He knew that he had to bid his time until he had fully regained his profound strength. He did not want his enemies, old and new to know that he was back now. A hundred years had passed since he was away and many things had changed.

    At least he knew that some of his old enemies like Xue Qianxue were still alive while Xia Jiaqing may have be his new enemy.

    While Yuan Ji was having his own thoughts, Xia Jiaqing was also thinking. "Since you want to pretend not to know me then I will just have to pretend to y along with you¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji was now lying on his bed and he was thinking of Xia Jiajia. Or rather, Xia Jiaqing the Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    He was suddenly smiling when he recalled her earlier words;

    "Do you know that today I''ve met a young man that has a pair of immerse eyes that resemble your eyes? But he is not you. He doesn''t have your beautiful golden eyes. I so much wish that it is you today and not him¡­"

    He began to feel his empty chin. "What if she knows that I''m really him one day? What will be her reaction?"

    He began to chuckle at the thought.

    But he was soon thinking as he cast aside he turned solemn, "No! She must never, never know that Yuan Ji is really Ji Yuan or I''ll be aughing stock."

    Then he started to prepare his future ns. "First I will regain my profound strength and seek vendetta for my sect. Then I will find a way to sneak into the Celestial Orthodox Sect. There is a remedy in the Celestial Orthodox Sect that can restore my beard."

    His eyes began to beam excitingly at the thought of restoring his beard.

    He began to mutter, "The Celestial Orthodox Sect¡­Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue¡­"

    His mind began to wander to the events that had taken ce one hundred years ago¡­

 Chapter 10 One Hundred Years Ago (1)

    One hundred years ago;

    Ji Yuan was in thepany of three other high level cultivators in a private hosting room. These three other high level cultivators were all sixth realm golden supremacies.

    Yuwen Hao was stroking his long beard as heughed jovially, "The four of us have been conferred the celestial title of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivators. Although we have never met in the past but from today onward, the four of us shall be brothers!"

    Gao Xianliangughed as he raised a toast to everyone, "Yes, we are brothers from now on!"

    "However, we should all toast Brother Ji Yuan first. He has been conferred as the most beautiful beard among the four of us. At the same time, he is also an upper sixth realm cultivator while we are all below him in cultivation. Therefore we should address him as our big brother!" Li Yi shouted.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan!" The other three cultivators raised their hands to toast him excitingly.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "This is my honor as well to be your big brother. I am ttered by the praises of all the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Our renown is now known throughout the celestial fraternity."

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, your long beard is indeed beautiful. Although my beard is beautiful as well but it is still short of your beard''s astonishing beauty." Gao Xianliang praised him.

    "Indeed, indeed. How did Big Brother Ji Yuan manage to keep your beard so long and beautiful?" Yuwen Hao asked curiously.

    "It is really not easy to maintain our long beards¡­"

    "There are many golden celestials that have fallen into bad repute because they had lost their beards during their golden body transformation¡­even saints too¡­"

    "Although there are saints with beards but their beards are not as beautiful as ours¡­"

    "We are also handsome as well¡­"

    "We are all young looking with long beautiful beards¡­"

    "All the maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are buying our portraits and putting it in their rooms¡­"

    "Woes to those that have lost their beards¡­"

    Li Yi had suddenly said, "Big Brother Ji Yuan, I think that in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity, only you are apatible match to Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue. There are no others who can evene closer than you in term of your good looks!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is one of the two most beautiful goddesses in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. How can I even bepatible to her? Moreover, she is also a seventh realm golden saintess."

    There were two most beautiful goddesses in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. One was Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the other was Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Gao Xianliang smiled, "Why not take Ling Feiyue as your consort too? She is also a goddess among men."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue is from the unorthodox heretic faction. We are from the righteous orthodox faction. How can I even consider Ling Feiyue at all?"

    Yuwen Hao wasughing, "So does this mean that Big Brother Ji Yuan is considering to take Xue Qianxue as your consort?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder. I didn''t even know how she looks like so how can I even take her as my consort? Even if she is willing, I am not willing at all!"

    Gao Xianliang, Yuwen Hao and Li Yi were allughing jovially as they said together, "That is so true. Big Brother Ji Yuan can have any maiden you want. It is your choice and not theirs!"

    "I''m sure that when Xue Qianxue sees our Big Brother Ji Yuan, her legs will grow weak!" Yuwen Hao chuckled.

    "I have heard that Xue Qianxue has a divine remedy that can not only restore a man''s beard but also can make it grow even more beautiful than ever." Li Yi smiled. "If one day, Big Brother Ji Yuan decides to take Xue Qianxue as your consort, I hope that you can share the remedy with us?"

    Ji Yuan immediately patted his chest as heughed, "No problem at all! When that day happens, I will definitely share it with my brothers!"

    "Then we thanks Big Brother Ji Yuan in advance first!"

    Ji Yuan was stroking his beautiful long beard as he muttered, "Hmm, a remedy that can make my beard grows even better? This is so interesting."

    "Big Brother, you should be thinking of getting Xue Qianxue as your consort first." Gao Xianliangughed. "And imagining her in your bed."

    "That is right!" Yuwen Hao wasughing jovially. "I really cannot imagine how she will look like when she is naked."

    Ji Yuan was frowning lightly, "Actually I have no interest in someone that I''ve never met. You know that people tend to exaggerate things. Frankly speaking, I think that she is only being conferred the title of a beautiful goddess only because she is a saintess."

    Then he added with a grin, "Moreover, she must have plenty of suitors. I doubt that she is a chaste maiden anyway¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a maiden in white curtain veil standing at the curtained entrance who was humming coldly, "Are you guys done yet?"

    Ji Yuan and the other three men were startled by her sudden appearance.

    It was because they were all sixth realm golden supremacies here and they had not heard her approach.<sub> </sub>

    Li Yi smiled, "If you want this room, I am afraid that we have booked it for the entire day."

    Yuwen Hao wasughing, "This maiden looks like a beautiful maiden. If you are willing to apany us for a few drinks then we may consider letting you have this private room."

    Gao Xianliang smirked, "Why don''t you remove your headdress? You''re indoor now and we will like to see your pretty face."

    The maiden in white curtain veil replied coldly, "Do you think that you are fit to talk to me like this?"

    Yuwen Hao was roaring withughter, "She asking us if we are fit to talk to her like this? Look at our golden eyes! We are golden celestials! We are also four sixth realm golden supremacies here¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Erm brothers, this isn''t so nice to talk so rudely to someone like this. We may be golden celestials but we should also treat the others with respect..."

    But his voice was quickly drowned by Gao Xianliang, "Listen maiden, if you are not taking off your headdress then you are not leaving this ce!"

    All of a sudden he had jumped forward to seize her curtain headdress.

    Pa!

    p!

    Whoop!

    The maiden in white curtain veil had not only pped Gao Xianliang tightly on his cheek and she had kicked him across the room, stunning the other three men.

    Did they see wrongly?

    A golden supremacy just got kicked in this manner with almost no defenses?

    Even Gao Xianliang was shocked as he stammered out, "Who...are you?"

    The maiden in white curtain veil answered coldly, "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue. Seventh realm golden saintess."

    Gao Xianliang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Yuwen Hao, Li Yi: ¡­

    All four men had turned ashen immediately. They were talking behind Xue Qianxue''s back and little did they know that she was actually here in the same ce as them!

    Xue Qianxue said coldly, "So four golden supremacies of your lofty status are speaking behind my back and in such a loud manner. I dare you to repeat what you have just said earlier!"

    Ji Yuan had almost burst intoughter as he thought, "Luckily, I am a true gentleman and did not badmouth her. All the lewd remarks are made by them."

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly pointed at Ji Yuan and said coldly, "So you are the head of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivators? I want you to shave off your beard and your portrait delivered to me in this ce. You have three days to do so or don''t me me for shaming you in public."

    With that she had left in an angry huff.

    Ji Yuan waspletely stunned as he stared nkly at his three other ''brothers''.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, I''m afraid that this time I won''t be able to help you¡­"

    "She is a saintess while we are merely low level supremacies¡­"

    "You shouldn''t be poking fun at her behind her back¡­"

    "I will give you my spiritual support¡­"

    "You are and will still be our big brother¡­"

    "Rest assured that we won''t tell anyone about this¡­"

    "You shouldn''t have lofty thoughts about taking a saintess as your consort. You are only asking for it¡­"

    After quickly forting'' Ji Yuan, all three men quickly fled the scene of their bad behavior.

 Chapter 11 One Hundred Years Ago (2)

    Ji Yuan had walked into a celestial guild and said to the personal guild attendant, "I want some information about a person."

    The personal guild attendant was smiling. It was because the inquirer was a golden celestial and golden celestials were rich enough to afford payment for rare information.

    She gave Ji Yuan a lovely smile, "That will depend on what information that you want about that person and the rarity of the information. It ranges from a single gold coin to several spirit stones. But you can rest assure that we will protect your confidentiality. May I know the person name first?"

    Ji Yuan quickly nodded, "So be it. Do you have any information on Xue Qianxue?"

    The personal guild attendant was gasping but she soon lit a wry smile, "If you want to know if she is attached or have any suitors, the price is 10 spirit stones. This information is highly sought after and I can promise you that we have thetest update on her."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I am not interested in that."

    "Then?" The personal guild attendant asked curiously.

    "I want to know her profound skills, her swordy and how strong she is." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    The personal guild attendant smiled weakly, "Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan asked, "Are you afraid that I won''t be able to pay you?"

    "It isn''t that¡­" The personal guild attendant was sighing, "That will be 1 gold piece."

    "So cheap?!" Ji Yuan was astonished. 100 gold pieces was equivalent to one low grade spirit stone.

    The personal guild attendant smiled weakly, "Everyone knows who Xue Qianxue is and her ranking. This information isn''t worth much."

    "Well, I don''t so I want to know." Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    The personal guild attendant was thinking, "Is he living in another world? He actually doesn''t know how strong Xue Qianxue is?"

    But she kept her thoughts to herself while smiling, "Xue Qianxue. Sacred Maiden to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. Seventh Rank Middle Tier Saintess. One of the two most beautiful goddesses of the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    Ji Yuan said impatiently, "This, I know already. I am not paying you for this. I''m not interested in her family or status. I want to know her profound skills and ranking."

    The personal guild attendant smiled weakly, "Alright then. I will go straight to the point. She practiced the Sacred Maiden Profound Art and the name of her swordy is the Beautiful Maiden Swordy. Her lightless skill..."

    "What is the swordy ranking of her Beautiful Maiden Swordy?" Ji Yuan interrupted her with an anxious look.

    "Well, it is currently ranked number nine."

    Ji Yuan was gasping as he thought. "Then I''m screwed." His own swordy was ranked forty-nine in the Swordy Ranking but her swordy was actually ranked ninth¡­

    There was no way that he would want to shave off his beautiful beard. Therefore he thought of challenging her with his sword. After all, he was a highly respected Sword Saint and he had full faith in his sword.

    But now, he was suddenly not so sure anymore¡­

    He said weakly, "Not bad. But her sword art is still beneath me. What about her Sacred Maiden Profound Art?"

    Although he may not best her in swordy but he had full faith in his profound art. After all, usually these type of beautiful cultivators were weak in their profound arts and were more like a beautiful vase.

    "The Sacred Maiden Profound Art is ranked in the top ten most powerful internal profound arts." The personal guild attendant nearly fainted when he had asked her about it. This was something that everyone knew about.

    Ji Yuan broke into cold sweat. His own profound art was not even among the top 100. Moreover Xue Qianxue was a seventh realm saintess and her profound strength was superior to him.

    He could only pray that she was azy cultivator and her Sacred Maiden Profound Art was not as highly aplished as the ranking said. After all, these types of rankings could be faked by anyone.

    When he remembered how Gao Xianliang got kicked by her across the room, he began to panic as he thought. "Even a powerful sixth realm golden supremacy got kick in that manner¡­she isn''t weak¡­"

    "Great Celestial, do you want any other information?" The personal guild attendant asked weakly.

    "No, that is enough." Ji Yuan said as he put down a gold coin on the table.

    He was muttering to himself, "Although I am the prot¨¦g¨¦ master of my own sect but I can''t let my prot¨¦g¨¦s know that I''ve offended Xue Qianxue. This will be awkward to my face. s, what shall I do now?"

    All of a sudden his eyes had looked up because a most astonishing beautiful maiden had quietly walked into the celestial guild house. She was dressed in ck robe that showed her beautiful legs and she had her long hair bundled into a beautiful top that immediately gave her an elegant presence. At the same time, her pair of golden eyes was looking intently around her.

    Ji Yuan muttered silently, "She is so beautiful. I wonder if she is attached. If only I can hook her up."

    She was indeed the most beautiful maiden that Ji Yuan had ever seen and his eyes were wandering on every inch of her.

    Ji Yuan was not the only person looking at her. Almost everyone had suddenly stopped what they were doing and were in awe of her astonishing beauty.

    Even the female guild personal attendant was muttering, "I''ve thought that there are only two goddesses in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. There is another goddess here."

    This beautiful astonishing maiden had suddenly approached Ji Yuan and was smiling, "Are you Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan was startled that she had actually approached him. He nodded before saying, "I am. Do you know me?"<sub> </sub>

    The beautiful astonishing maiden chuckled softly, "Of course I know you. You are the head of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivators. Someone as renowned as you is known by everyone."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "Indeed, indeed. But I don''t know the name of maiden yet. May I know your maiden''s name?"

    The beautiful astonishing maiden rolled her eyes before she said quietly, "Xia Jiajia."

    "So it is Maiden Xia Jiajia. May I know your celestial n of origin?" Ji Yuan said as he stared at her.

    Xia Jiajia smiled before she whispered to him, "Actually I am here to help you. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "I''ve no enemies¡­"

    "Well, you have one now and that is Xue Qianxue." Xia Jiajia chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan was frowning, "How did you know about this?"

    Xia Jiajia giggled before she whispered, "I was there. You guys were so loud that day. Even a deaf man can hear you."

    Ji Yuan immediately had a sheepish look, "A deaf man can''t hear for sure."

    "But that isn''t the point right?" Xia Jiajia smiled. "You have a powerful cultivator that is on your back now and you need to shake her off. Therefore you may need my help to do so."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "Actually it isn''t as threatening as you think it is. I''m sure that Xue Qianxue is wise enough to know that I am innocent of any disrespect to her. The ones that made the lewd remarks isn''t me."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "Are you sure about that? I had heard you loud and clear that day. You''ve made the lewdest remark on her."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Maiden Xia, you can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words! In fact, I was trying to persuade them to be respectful!" Yuan Ji said with great righteousness.

    If there was anything that he would not do and that was to disrespect any maidens. It was against his Dao and the pride of his Sword Saint title!

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, he was well-known as the gentleman of the sword.

    "Well. Did you say that beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder that day?" Xia Jiajia asked.

    Ji Yuan nodded, "I did. What is wrong with this line?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "Why are you so cute? Did you say this next then? I didn''t even know how she looks like so how can I even take her as my consort? Even if she is willing, I am not willing at all."

    Ji Yuan was frowning lightly, "There is nothing offensive about this."

    Xia Jiajia was smiling with amusement, "It may sound inoffensive but imagine letting Xue Qianxue hearing that she is undeserved to be your consort because you don''t know how beautiful she is. That is offensive. And you have to add if she is willing, you are not willing at all. Can you imagine how she feels after hearing you?"

    Ji Yuan was startled after hearing her, "Surely she isn''t that petty right?"

    "Did you also say that after you have got her as your consort, you will also share her divine remedy to your three other brothers?" Xia Jiajia asked further.

    "This, I did say that. But there is nothing wrong right?" Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    "To Xue Qianxue, it is extremely lewd. It is like sharing her with your three other brothers." Xia Jiajia pointed out.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "I didn''t think this way at all."

    "Then you have to add that you''ve no interest in someone that you''ve never met. You even said that people tend to exaggerate things about her and that she is only being conferred the title of a beautiful goddess only because she is a saintess." Xia Jiajia pointed out.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I did say that¡­"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "And you even add that she must have plenty of suitors and that you doubt that she is even a chaste maiden."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What you''ve said got her so upset that she immediately stormed to your private room." Xia Jiajia chuckled softly. "So, are your remarks lewd or not?"

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile, "I did say that but the others are the worst offenders."

    "No matter how lewd they are but they are still praising her beauty but you¡­" Xia Jiajia wasughing so jovially that there were tears in her eyes. "I''ve never met anyone that can upset Xue Qianxue straight in her face like you did."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly pulled her aside, "Erm, let''s talk elsewhere. This ce isn''t a good ce to talk."

    Then he whispered to her, "You''re right. The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

    Xia Jiajia wasughing softly, "So you''ve finally realized you have made an enemy out of Xue Qianxue?"

 Chapter 12 One Hundred Years Ago (3)

    Xia Jiajia had taken Ji Yuan to an Inn and they were now walking up the stairs to a reserved room.

    Ji Yuan looked at her alluring figure as he chuckled, "Isn''t this a little too soon? We have just met. This isn''t too romantic, don''t you think so? But if that is what you want, then¡­"

    Xia Jiajia was startled as she caught his hand that was on her butt, "You! What are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan was startled too as he stammered, "I am just trying to warm us up."

    Xia Jiajia smiled weakly as she pushed his hand away, "It isn''t what you think it is."

    Ji Yuan was gasping as he took a step back, "You are attached to someone already?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled softly, "I''m not. In fact, you are just my type."

    Ji Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. He had fallen in love with her at first sight and he was not about to let her go just like this. He quickly smiled, "Then why are we¡­erming here?"

    Xia Jiajia rebuked him gently, "There are more than one uses foring to an inn and it doesn''t mean we have to share a room. Are you thinking of that?"

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan quickly said with a flustered look. "I am a renowned gentleman of the sword."

    Xia Jiajia giggled before she whispered, "We are dealing with Xue Qianxue. Just the two of us alone may not be able to deal with her, am I right? Therefore I''ve another friend here who is able to help."

    Ji Yuan growled lightly, "Actually you just need me¡­"

    "We are here." Xia Jiajia interrupted him as she pushed opened the door.

    In the room was a handsome beardless young man with bright golden eyes. He was sitting upright and was sipping a small cup of wine. In fact, he was the most handsome man that Yuan Ji had ever seen.

    Immediately there was an envious look in Ji Yuan''s eyes. His first thought was that this young handsome man was a golden celestial and he was immediately unhappy that Xia Jiajia was in hispany.

    Xia Jiajia immediately giggled as she pointed at Ji Yuan, "Look who I''ve brought here. This is Supremacy Ji Yuan, the prot¨¦g¨¦ master of the Orthodox Sword Sect. He is also a Sword Saint and the head of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivators."

    Ji Yuan smiled as he thought, "I didn''t know that I am so renowned. To have my renowned pronounced out by such a peerless beauty is so different from announcing it myself. Haha."

    Then he stared coldly at the handsome beardless young man with his silent thoughts. "I am an upper sixth realm golden supremacy. Go away. You have no chance with my Jiajia."

    Xia Jiajia looked warmly at the handsome beardless young man before she introduced him with gentle chuckles. "This is Young Master Ling Feiyang. He is from the Flying Swords Divine Sect and is a fifth realm golden celestial."

    Ji Yuan smirked. Flying Swords Divine Sect? Never heard of this insignificant sect before. A mere fifth realm golden celestial and he wants to fight with me over my Xia Jiajia? Dream on!

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "I''ll leave it to you gentlemen to chat while I go fetch some good wines for us to discuss over the tableter."

    When the door was closed, Ji Yuan immediately said. "So you are Ling Feiyang?"

    Ling Feiyang said, "It is my honor to know Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted, "Call me Supremacy Ji Yuan. We are not so close to be addressing each other as brothers yet. Right now, I''m your senior while you are my junior."

    Ling Feiyang smiled weakly, "Yes, yes¡­"

    "And what happens to your beard? Did you lose it during your golden body transformation? This is most unfortunate." Ji Yuan mocked him.

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "It is better this way. I can''t be bothered with the sight of an unsightly beard."

    Ji Yuan quickly reprimanded him, "This you are really very wrong to say that. The beard is the pride of real men."

    He began to stroke his beautiful long beard before heughed, "Unfortunately, you won''t be able to appreciate it now. Do you know that Maiden Xia Jiajia is attracted to me because of my beautiful long beard?"

    Ling Feiyang began to smile weakly, "Oh really?"

    Ji Yuan put his hand on the table with a light m as he said coldly, "If you are smart, you should know what to do. She will never like a beardless man like you. In fact, no maidens will like you at all. Got it? So don''t you have any lofty thoughts on her."

    Then he smiled, "Who knows that I may even give you a tip or two about cultivation practice. I can even consider you to be my brother. But you should know what to do, am I right?"

    Ling Feiyang rolled his eyes before asking, "So you like her?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course. Didn''t I state my intention clear enough already?"

    Then he added, "Look at you. You are drinking wine like a maiden. Do you even know how to drink at all? If you want to drink, you should drink it sk by sk!"

    Ling Feiyang replied weakly, "I prefer to drink sip by sip."

    Suddenly the door was swung opened by Xia Jiajia as she carried a tray of wine sks into the room.

    "So how is your chat? Are the two of you getting along well?" Xia Jiajiaughed softly as she entered the room.

    Ji Yuan immediatelyughed aloud as he put his arm around Ling Feiyang neck, "Of course we are getting along well. We just have a great personal talk with each other."

    He quickly looked at Ling Feiyang, "Brother Ling, do you agree?"

    Ling Feiyang smiled weakly before nodding, "Yes¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan had suddenly patted Ling Feiyang''s chest as heughed, "We are already getting along so well together."

    Xia Jiajia was suddenly gasping and she had almost dropped her tray.

    Ji Yuan turned to Xia Jiajia to ask, "What is wrong? Maiden Xia, are you alright?"

    Xia Jiajia smiled weakly, "I¡­I am¡­alright..e, let''s drink together as we discuss our ns."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he returned his attention to Ling Feiyang, "Brother Ling, really. Your chest is too soft. You should beef up a little, you know."

    Ling Feiyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly noticed that Ling Feiyang had rosy cheeks. "I see that Brother Ling isn''t a good drinker. No wonder you are only taking such small sips. Haha."

    Xia Jiajia said weakly to Ji Yuan, "I see that the two of you are really getting along so well. Let''s talk about how we are going to deal with Xue Qianxue."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Alright."

    But he soon asked, "But I don''t understand why Xue Qianxue will be in this small deste ce? And she is traveling incognito."

    Ling Feiyang said quietly, "That is because I have a secret duel with her in two day time."

    Ji Yuan was roaring withughter, "You are merely a fifth realm cultivator and you are dueling with a seventh realm saintess? This must be the funniest thing that I have ever heard."

    Ling Feiyang: ¡­

    "Do you think it is funny?" Ling Feiyang asked him.

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "Naturally it is the funniest thing that I''ve ever heard."

    "I''ve heard that someone will lose his beautiful beard in a few more days. This is also the funniest thing that I''ve ever heard." Ling Feiyang chuckled as he took a sip of his wine. "A beardless Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivators."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly mmed his hand on the table, "We need to deal with Xue Qianxue or she will think that she can push us around. So¡­"

    He hesitated sheepishly before continuing, "So, what is the n?"

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "Actually we''ve already got a n but we need Supremacy Ji Yuan help."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan said curiously.

    Xia Jiajia chuckled as she put a sk of wine to her mouth before smiling, "Do you dare to peep at her while she is taking her bath?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This isn''t such a good idea, right?" He stammered. "I may get killed."

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "We have heard that Supremacy Ji Yuan''s lightless skill is second to none in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. Even your eyesight can pick up the tiniest of details."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I can''t really say my lightless skill is second to none but it is definitely in the top five. As for my eyesight, hehe, I can even see a fly from a mile away."

    Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyang were quietly looking at each other. They really did not know that Ji Yuan''s eyesight was this good.

    "But she is a saintess. It won''t be easy to spy on her." Ji Yuan pointed out. "As soon as we train our divine sense on her, she will surely know. Therefore this n will not work."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "No, this will work because I''ve already nted tiny mirrors in her temporary dwelling ce. If you train your eyes on the mirrors, she won''t know. Therefore what we need is your eyesight."

    Ji Yuan was perplexed, "I am from the orthodox celestial n and is also a sect leader. I am not a flower thief or a lecherous fellow. I really can''t do this and what is the objective of doing so? I don''t really understand."

    Xia Jiajia bended her head to Ji Yuan before she whispered, "We only want to know if she is a white tiger and mean no harm."

    Ji Yuan was gasping. "She is a white tiger?"

    (A white tiger is a term that refers to theck of pubic hair)

    "This is for you to find out." Xia Jiajia smiled. "You can use her secret to trade for your beard."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I need to think. This is not an honorable thing that we''re doing."

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "What if Maiden Xia will agree to follow you from now on?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes nkly as he looked at Xia Jiajia, "Really?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "Naturally I will or do you want to lose your beard?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Then let''s do it."

 Chapter 13 One Hundred Years Ago (4)

    Late at night;

    Ji Yuan began to follow the n that was decided and he knew that Xue Qianxue was staying in a particr inn.

    Xia Jiajia had said to him, "I know that she likes cleanliness the most and will surely take a bath at exactly the same hour of the night."

    He had asked Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyang, "You are not following me to the inn?"

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "I''m a gentleman."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am also a gentleman¡­" He muttered.

    Xia Jiajia shook her head, "Do you expect me to jump on the roof top with my long skirt?"

    "Erm, no." Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he left to execute their n.

    When Ji Yuan had left, Xia Jiajia turned to Ling Feiyang with a curled smile. "So how is the feeling of letting your bosoms touched by him?"

    Ling Feiyang: ¡­

    "He will be a dead man soon. Does it matter?" Ling Feiyang smiled coldly. Then he added, "If he is not dead anytime soon then I will chop off his dirty hands."

    Xia Jiajia averted her eyes, "Actually he is actually quite good looking, without his ugly beard of course."

    Ling Feiyang waved his fan as he said coldly, "Unfortunately he has offended me several times already. He thinks that I am just his junior and a lowly fifth realm golden celestial."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled jovially, "He only has his eyes on me. He doesn''t have any extra eyes for our seventh realm saintess Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue here."

    Ling Feiyang averted his eyes, "For a moment, I''ve thought that he had seen through my disguise and is just making a fool out of me."

    Xia Jiajia asked, "Do you think that he will seed in his mission?"

    Ling Feiyang said coolly, "It won''t be hard for him and that is the reason why we have lured him here."

    Xia Jiajia said quietly, "Actually I don''t want him to die."

    Ling Feiyang said, "He is already a dead man when he has offended Xue Qianxue in this manner. This is something that he did on his own ord and we didn''t force him to say so. I say that the result is actually much better than we have expected. We should reward Li Yi handsomely for his yacting."

    "I shall see to that." Xia Jiajia nodded.

    With a soft sigh, she said mncholy, "The minute that he tries to barter with Xue Qianxue on her personal secret then he will be a dead man."

    "Barter or not, he is already a dead man." Ling Feiyang was suddenly smiling.

    ¨C

    Ji Yuan had already found the inn that Xue Qianxue was staying put.

    He was muttering, "ording to Xia Jiajia, there are eight bronze mirrors that are ced strategically in her room. Since this is only an inn, her room shouldn''t be big and the bath tub should be in her room."

    From the roof top, he could see that the beautiful form of Xue Qianxue as she began to remove her robe gracefully.

    "She seems to be alone?" He thought.

    But he was soon blinking his eyes. What was the point of seeing only her shadow?

    He was soon frowning.

    He had to get closer.

    So he quietly leapt onto the roof top that was above her room and quietly removed the corner of a roof tile. He would only need a light hole to see clearly.

    He was thinking with silent chuckles, "Who needs mirrors or divine sense when I have my superior lightless skill anyway? I only need my eyes."

    Xue Qianxue was indeed in the bath tub and he could see her bare shoulder and beautiful shy face.

    He was soon gasping. Perhaps beautiful was not the word to describe her peerless look that could melt the hearts of men and caused men to sin. He saw that she was also snowy white and had her hair bundled upward into a long pony tail.<sub> </sub>

    "She is indeed a goddess. No wonder she is ranked as one of the two goddesses in the Deste Celestial Fraternity." He was muttering to himself. "She is only not beautiful but cute looking. However I already have my Xia Jiajia and let''s not forget that behind her beautiful demeanor, she is also my enemy that wants to humiliate me. Without my beard, I''ll be aughing stock in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Xue Qianxue was giggling to herself as she yed with the scented flowers that were floating on her bathtub. She was soon singing a beautiful soft tune as sheughed at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was muttering, "She is like a fairy goddess. This is too sinful. She seems to be seducing me¡­"

    But he continued to look at her and was mesmerized by her actions. Soon he had forgotten about his mission and he was drooling.

    All of a sudden he had realized that he had been on the roof top for quite some time now and he hadpletely forgotten about his mission.

    Then he looked at Xue Qianxue who was still in her bathtub as he thought, "I can''t believe that she has been inside the bathtub for nearly an hour? What is she? A duck? At this rate this is going, I can''t see her naked figure¡­"

    "This is a bad position. I need to shift a little. With my superior eyesight, surely I can see through the water and know whether she is a white tiger¡­"

    So he started to shift his body and all of a sudden he felt the numbness that was on his legs. "Crap, I''ve been in the same position for too long and my legs have gone numb¡­"

    All of a sudden he had tripped on the exposed roof tile and he had crashed through the roof,nding with a loud ssh into Xue Qianxue''s bathtub!

    Xue Qianxue waspletely stunned when she saw his head popping out of the water of the bathtub, "Ji Yuan! It is you! How¡­how¡­dare you¡­" She had immediately covered her body with her hands and had curled up her body.

    Ji Yuan was also stunned because he was now looking at Xue Qianxue straight into her face and she was more beautiful in person than from afar. "Wait! I can exin¡­my lightless skill has just failed me because my legs are numbed¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was gasping with horror, "You¡­you¡­you are peeping at me?! You are actually a flower thief¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately protested as he said panicky, "You have really misunderstood me. I am not peeping. I just want to know if you are a white tiger so that I can use your secret to trade for the safety of my beard."

    He was now panicky exining because he was really afraid of losing his life in the next instant.

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    There were tears in Xue Qianxue''s eyes and her voice was trembling, "Get out of here immediately!"

    "I will quickly. Sacred Maiden Xue, I''ve admired you for a long time. This isn''t really intentional¡­"

    He clumsily attempted to get out of the bathtub but he had suddenly lost his bnce in the water as he fell onto her and his head hadnded on her bosoms, grabbing her boobs as he tried to regain his bnce.

    "This isn''t intentional¡­" He continued to mutter as he jumped out of the bathtub in a hurry. As he tried to look for an entrance, he had a clumsy fall on the wet floor before he crawled out of her room in great panic.

    As Ji Yuan made his escape, he did not stop until he was in a forest.

    He was muttering, "I am not dead yet?"

    He soon broke into a cold sweat, "Xue Qianxue will never spare me for peeping at her. Now it is not only my beard that is endangered. My own life now is also at stake. What should I do now?"

    He began to pace in circles, "It is a lucky thing that she seems to have lost her wits earlier when the ident happens or I will surely be dead. But when she recovers her wits, the first person that she is going to look for and to kill is me¡­so what shall I do?"

    "Ji Yuan, you havepleted your mission?" It was Xia Jiajia and she was followed behind by Ling Feiyang.

    "Why are you so wet?" Xia Jiajia asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan was startled from his thoughts when they had suddenly appeared. But after realizing that she was Xia Jiajia, his heart began to calm down immediately.

    He put on a straight face before he said calmly, "I took a dip into the river because Xue Qianxue is really too hot."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "So who is hotter? Me or she?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course it is my Jiajia."

    Xia Jiajia giggled softly before she asked, "So what have you found out?"

    Ji Yuan actually did not see a thing but he was not about to let the maiden that he liked to look down on him. Moreover there was this Ling Feiyang who was constantly looking lecherously at his Xia Jiajia. Therefore he said with a softughter, "Of course I''ve seen everything. She is indeed a white tiger."

    It was merely a guess.

    Ling Feiyang and Xia Jiajia quietly stole a nce at each other; this was the information that they had needed.

    When it was time for Ling Feiyang and Xue Qianxue to duel with each other, Ling Feiyang would use this information to taunt Xue Qianxue and to distract her from performing her best.

    And Ling Feiyang would then reveal to Xue Qianxue that it was actually Ji Yuan who was peeping at her. No matter what the oue of the duel was, Ji Yuan would be a dead man.

 Chapter 14 One Hundred Years Ago (5)

    Xia Jiajia was in her state of undress when Ji Yuan had suddenly barged into her room.

    She gasped as she quickly pulled her robe to her, "What are you doing? Don''t you know how to knock the door? And do you know that it is now the middle of the night?"

    She was actually thinking, "Is he thinking of bedding me? How do I reject him?"

    Ji Yuan noticed that her room was heavily scented as heughed weakly, "Maiden Xia, don''t be afraid. I know that it is rude but I have no other choice."

    Xia Jiajia: ???

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Maiden Xia, your room is so heavily scented. Aren''t you afraid that some flower thieves may use their scented fragrances on you to rob you of your chastity?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled softly, "I am not afraid because I am unaffected by such things. But this isn''t what you are here for, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan began to sigh heavily, "Indeed. I am here to say good bye to you."

    "Oh? You''re leaving?" Xia Jiajia asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan nodded with a heavy heart, "That''s right." If he did not leave soon, he would soon be a dead man.

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "You are letting me off just like this? Didn''t you say you want me to follow you?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I really hope that Maiden Xia will not forget your promise and wait for me."

    "Wait for you? For what?" Xia Jiajia asked him curiously.

    "I''m going to breakthrough to the seventh realm sacred saint level." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    Xia Jiajia was gasping, "You''re serious? You are so young and can afford to wait several more centuries. Are you sure you want to do it?"

    Ji Yuan nodded with a heavy sigh, "I am afraid that this time, I have greatly offended Xue Qianxue. Only if I am a saint then I will have a chance to fight her on an even footing. Now, I am just not worthy to fight her and unworthy of bringing happiness to you."

    Xia Jiajia muttered with a flushed look, "Unworthy of bringing me happiness?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Because I will be forcefully breaking through to the seventh realm level, I may need a long time. Moreover there may be unintended consequences. I hope that Maiden Xia will wait for me for a hundred years. I will look for you, alright?"

    Xia Jiajia was stunned, "Are you sure you want to do it? You may even lose your life."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I have no other choice. My celestial n is weaker than the Celestial Orthodox Sect. I am sure that you know that Xue Qianxue''s Celestial Orthodox Sect is the one of the seven major patriarch celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. These patriarch celestial ns have always been united against any outside threat. If they know what I have done, even if I have ten lives, it is not enough."

    Xia Jiajia smiled weakly to him, "Actually you will be alright. I can help you¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "This time I am really a goner. I hope that Maiden Xia can pledge your heart to me and wait me for a hundred years. If I do not return in a hundred years then you''re free to marry anyone, alright?"

    Xia Jiajia rolled her eyes before she smiled, "On ount of your sincerity for me, alright then. I will wait you for a hundred years then."

    "Really?" Ji Yuan was really delighted.

    Xia Jiajia nodded with a slight flush.

    Ji Yuan excitingly took out a sword from his spatial ring, "This is Sky Forth, a heaven-step precious sword. This is also the most precious sword of my sect. I shall give this as a pledge to you."<sub> </sub>

    Xia Jiajia unsheathed the beaming precious sword as she said quietly, "Good sword. Thank you."

    Then she took out a sword from her spatial ring, "This is my precious sword. I shall give it to you as my pledge too."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he unsheathed her precious sword, "What is the name of your precious sword¡­"

    All of a sudden he was stunned by the brilliant radiance of her precious sword, "This¡­is¡­isn''t this¡­"

    Xia Jiajia giggled, "This is Resonate Peak, my divine sword. It is merely an earth-step divine sword."

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted on the spot. Did she just say it was merely an earth-step divine sword? Any divine sword was superior to the highest grade precious swords. Moreover divine swords were so rare that they were usually the heritage treasures of any celestial n and usually only the sect leader would own one.

    Divine swords have grades too; half-step, mortal-step, earth-step, heaven-step, celestial-step and immortal-step. Thest two grades usually did not have a step denoted to it because it is a full grade stronger than the half-step, mortal step, earth step and the heaven grade but many celestials denote a step to it when they are referring it as a divine sword.

    An immortal step divine sword is a full grade stronger than a celestial step divine sword while a celestial step divine sword is a full grade stronger than a heaven step divine sword.

    And she was freely giving him a divine sword as a pledge?!

    This was not just a half-step divine sword but an earth-step divine sword. One must know that even a major patriarch celestial n may not have an earth-step divine sword. As for celestial and saint grade divine swords, no one had even seen one before and it was just rumored to exist.

    He was extremely touched.

    But he was also asking, "Are you sure. This sword is too precious."

    Xia Jiajia nodded, "This is our pledge. I shall wait you for a hundred years."

    Ji Yuan suddenly hugged Xia Jiajia, startling her. "Jiajia, because of you, I will surely ovee my breakthrough. I will be back for you."

    Xia Jiajia giggled, "Alright. I believe you."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Don''t get too friendly with that Ling Feiyang, alright? He is just a pretty face."

    Xia Jiajiaughed softly, "Our rtionship isn''t what you think it is."

    Ji Yuan suddenly said, "I got to go now."

    "So soon?" Xia Jiajia was startled.

    "There is no time." Ji Yuan said solemnly. "I have to settle some things in my sect first before I enter into my seclusion retreat."

    Then he inhaled with a deep sigh as he looked deeply into Xiao Jiajia''s eyes, "When I''ve be a saint, I''ll protect you from Xue Qianxue."

    With that he had quickly sped off, leaving Xia Jiajia with a stunned expression.

    p Xia Jiajia was suddenly feeling guilty as she muttered, "Did we overdo it? Actually he isn''t that bad except for his ugly beard¡­"</anda>

    Then she lowered her nces shyly, "Thank you. I will wait you for a hundred years then."

 Chapter 15 One Hundred Years Ago (6)

    Ji Yuan was cursing himself softly. He was now lost in the mountains.

    He began to me himself, "I should have waited until daybreak to leave the inn. I can''t see a thing in the darkness. Never mind. The first ray of the sun is here now. I can finally continue on my way."

    All of a sudden, his sharp eyes spotted an extremely beautiful maiden below him.

    This extremely beautiful maiden was giggling softly and there was a soft golden animus around her as she leapt with a startling speed across the ground, touching only the tip of the grasses and rocks with her gentle steps.

    She was extremely breathtaking and he found himself looking at her curved slim figure.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly startled. It was because he had suddenly realized that this extremely beautiful maiden was a seventh realm saintess as evidenced by her light steps and speed that she was moving but she was not Xue Qianxue.

    "Who is she? Why will there be another saintess in this wilderness? And why is she so happy about?"

    Curious, he began to follow her.

    Before long, he had followed her to a valley and she had stopped in her tracks.

    She was looking all around her as she swept her divine sense into her vicinity.

    But as Ji Yuan was actually quite far away and he had relied on his good eyesight to follow her, therefore he was not detected by her.

    "Is she waiting for her lover?" Ji Yuan thought curiously.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned ashen because this extremely maiden had suddenly turned her face around and he almost got a heart-attack as he had recognized Ling Feiyang.

    "Why is he cross dressing into a maiden?" He was perplexed. "This is too sinful to my eyes. I didn''t know that he has such a fetish¡­"

    He began to mutter, "I should go now. I''m not interested in a man¡­"

    "Wait a minute." He had a sudden thought. "Ling Feiyang is a seventh realm golden saint?!"

    He was suddenly gasping with shock. "I think I may have offended him that day¡­"

    "Why am I so unlucky recently?"

    He was soon muttering, "Why is he in this wilderness? Don''t tell me he is meeting Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue to duel with her?"

    How could he leave like this if that was the case? This was a golden opportunity to observe the secret duel that was between two seventh realm experts. Moreover since the two of them were his potential enemies, it would pay him good to observe their fights so that he could prepare himself in the future.

    What luck!

    Therefore he quietly waited.

    Ling Feiyang was now quietly sitting on arge rock and he was humming a beautiful tune.

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his eyes. "Why is that the longer I watch him, the more that I feel that he is really a maiden? But it shouldn''t be. He is always looking so lecherously at my Xia Jiajia¡­"

    Suddenly another extremely beautiful maiden in white had arrived and she was indeed Xue Qianxue.

    "You arete for our duel." Ling Feiyang was seen giggling softly.

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "Why are you being so impatient? Or you can''t wait to lose to me?"

    "Who says that I will be losing to you?" Ling Feiyang smiled. "If you are willing to concede defeat to me then I won''t tell anyone about it. If not, hehe."

    "Fat hope!" Xue Qianxue hummed coldly as she unsheathed her precious sword.

    "So be it then." Ling Feiyangughed as he leapt down from the rock.

    Xue Qianxue said coolly, "We are the two most beautiful goddesses of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. This duel will be interesting."

    "Indeed. Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue versus Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. I wonder what will be the oue of this duel." Ling Feiyue chuckled softly as she unsheathed her precious sword.

    Ji Yuan who had been listening to their conversations was stunned all of a sudden. "She is Ling Feiyue? She is really a maiden?! Ling Feiyang, Ling Feiyue."

    He was suddenly gasping, "Why is that I''m so stupid? There isn''t any man that is more dashing than me anyway¡­so she is a maiden¡­I should have realized this long ago..."

    All of a sudden he had turned ashen as he suddenly remembered that he had patted Ling Feiyue on her ''chest'' that day and had even threatened her because he had wanted to get her off from Xia Jiajia.

    "Shit. I''ve just offended two saintesses in just a matter of few days¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Where can I find ten lives to tank against these two saintesses¡­"

    But his thoughts quickly returned to the uing duel between the two saintesses. "If I can observe their swordy for any weakness then I may still stand a chance. Heavens must be on my side for causing me to be lost in these mountains."

    He was also thinking, "Their secret duel must surely be extremely earthshaking, moving the mountains and the seas. I should be supporting Xue Qianxue because she is from the orthodox celestial fraction. No wait, I should wish her dead instead. No wait again, I''ve also offended Ling Feiyue¡­maybe I should wish the two of them dead instead¡­"

    "What a pity. Two beautiful goddesses dead in this wilderness and there is no one to pick their corpses. Maybe I should be the kind one here." He added. "Wait, why is that I am excited below when I''ve thought of this? I am not thinking of checking their bodies or anything¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was heard giggling, "I can now see why you are ranked as a beautiful goddess. You are indeed beautiful."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "You are not bad looking yourself. The fluttering snow as white as the Goddess Maiden Qianxue and the spirit songs as vivid as the Goddess Maiden Feiyue."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "I must admit that the first line of the poem describes us perfectly. However the next line of this poem is a little lewd. To have the two beautiful goddesses to dance with the strokes of my beautiful beard is as heavenly as the sight of the immortal fairies."

    Xue Qianxue averted her eyes with a bitter smile, "It is indeed a little lewd. The poet is definitely a lecherous man. After I am done with you, I will slice this poet into multiple pieces."

    Ling Feiyue giggled and said lovingly, "Same here. He will definitely be a dead man after today."

    When Ji Yuan heard the poem, he almost fainted on the spot. He had made this poem when he was half-drunk and how did these two saintesses know about it?

    "He will definitely be a dead man after today?" Ji Yuan muttered after her. All of a sudden he had a startled realization. "Don''t tell me that it is all a plot to lure me to this ce? Everything that has happened in the past few days are too much of a coincidence. Don''t tell me they had setup me because I penned that poem?"

    The next line of their conversations confirmed his suspicion.

    "Ji Yuan will be a dead man soon." The two beautiful goddessesughed at the same time.<sub> </sub>

    The two goddess maidens were now pointing their swords at each other.

    "This is my Beautiful Maiden Swordy¡­"

    "This is my Flying Spirit Sword Art¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s attention soon returned to the duel; it was because his heart was pounding with excitement that he was about to witness the most earthshaking battle that he was about to see in his life.

    Xue Qianxue had swiftly disyed her Beautiful Maiden Swordy as she quickly sent three strokes to point Ling Feiyue. "This is the triple sh of the third stance of my Beautiful Maiden Swordy. So are you afraid?"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly as she raised her sword in an upward stance, "The fourth stance of my Flying Spirit Sword Art will be able to neutralize your triple sh. Why don''t you try harder than this?"

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "I''m afraid that if I were to try harder, you will be dead in no time!"

    "Prove it then." Ling Feiyue giggled as she raised her sword fingers to disy a defensive stance.

    Ji Yuan was stunned by their sword disy.

    It was not because their sword disy was so earthshaking that he was stunned but these two beautiful maidens were standing a good twenty paces apart as they disyed their swordy and sword art; they were not even making any point of contact!

    "This! Is this even a proper duel?!"

    This went on for another thirty minutes and Ji Yuan had almost fallen asleep in the grass that he was hiding before Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue coolly dered. "I guess that it is a draw then."

    Xue Qianxue swung her sword to her back as she said casually, "Once I have mastered my Beautiful Maiden Swordy to the Ninth level of the Flying Sword Maidens, I will definitely be able to break your swordart."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "I have yet to reach the final stance of my Flying Spirit Sword Art, the Thousand Raining Swords. Do you think that your whatever Flying Sword Maidens is going to hold up against me when I am able to use my Thousand Raining Swords?"

    "Don''t be too sure yet." Xue Qianxue smiled. "Since our swordy is a draw, why don''t we have a contest of our profound arts? My Sacred Maiden Profound Art versus your Six Realms Divine Art?"

    Ji Yuan was immediately alert. "They are going to fight it out with their profound arts now? This will be the most earthshaking, moving the mountains and the seas scene that I will be witnessing. Xue Qianxue''s Maiden Profound Art is ranked among the top ten most powerful profound arts. This time Ling Feiyue is going to be dead for sure."

    Then he took a pitiful look at Ling Feiyue, "I am feeling a little pity for her already¡­" He could well imagine her getting crushed under the profound strength of Xue Qianxue.

    Xue Qianxue smiled as she pointed to the huge boulder that Ling Feiyue was sitting earlier. "Why don''t we exercise our profound strength against that rock with our palms? The one that can imprint our palms deeper will be the victor?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "Why not?"

    Immediately the two of them had both delivered a thunderous explosive attack on the rock with their palms, sending the debris of the huge boulder up into the air.

    The two saintesses quickly inspected the boulder and both eximed with an equal disappointment, "Seems like our profound strength are quite evenly match."

    By now, Ji Yuan was cursing softly to himself. "They are dueling like two maidens. No wait, they are maidens¡­well, they are dueling like two immature fighters. Where is the earthshaking duel that is supposed to happen?"

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "It seems that we can only duel with our lightless skill." She pointed to the mountain cliff above them. "Whoever can scale up this mountain cliff first will be the superior cultivator. What do you say?"

    Xue Qianxue was smiling, "I''m not boasting but my lightless skill is definitely number one."

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she rolled her eyes, "We shall see about it."

    When Ji Yuan saw the steep mountain cliff, he was shaking his head. Even though he had imed to have the superior lightless skill but this steep cliff was impossible for anyone to climb. "Are these two saintesses boasting a little too much?"

    The two saintesses were heard saying, "Ready?"

    "Let''s go!"

    All of a sudden the two beautiful saintesses were scaling up the steep cliff as they tiptoed in rapid session. Their profound animus was like halos that were following them as they flew up the steep cliff.

    Ji Yuan was stunned by their feat as he stammered, "Their lightless skill is too formidable¡­" He did not find their weaknesses and instead, he had found their strengths. "That means that I cannot outrun them¡­crap, I forget to ask about Xue Qianxue''s lightless skill ranking that day¡­"

    He quickly prayed for them to slip and fell to their deaths instead.

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue giggled and said, "Say Sacred Maiden, are you a white tiger? Because someone saw you that night."

    Xue Qianxue gasped softly and had turned ashen. This gasp had caused the internal profound energies that she had built up to give way.

    It was because she had suddenly recalled Ji Yuan and what he had told her in the bathtub and that had caused her mind to nk out.

    Immediately she was falling down the steep cliff like a falling meteor!

    Xue Qianxue quickly tried to muster her profound strength but it was already toote as her profound animus consumed up the rest of her profound energies.

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she continued to scale up the steep cliff, "I see that someone is going to have a really hard fall."

    Xue Qianxue closed her eyes and her eyes were teary¡­

    All of a sudden a firm hand had caught hold of her and had cushioned her fall. When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was actually Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had rushed out in thest minute to catch hold of her because he had realized that he was the one that had caused her to lose this duel. Moreover, he felt a little guilty that night as well.

    "Ji Yuan¡­it is you¡­" Xue Qianxue gasped with a flustered look.

    Ji Yuan was muttering incoherently to himself, "Why are you so stupid to catch her. Do you know that you are about to lose your life to her?"

    He quickly put her down and fled like a madman from the scene, leaving a stunned Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue behind.

    "Before they recover from their wits, I must quickly flee as soon as possible¡­." He was muttering.

    He had broken another taboo of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and that was to observe their duels secretly.

    "Why am I so unlucky nowadays?"

    "Good bye Jiajia¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, wait!" Xue Qianxue shouted after him after she had regained her wits. But he was already long gone.

    At the same time Ling Feiyue hadnded quietly next to Xue Qianxue as she gasped softly, "Why is Ji Yuan in this ce? He saw me¡­then he knows¡­"

 Chapter 16 Elder Yuan Ji

    Ji Yuan was now Yuan Ji again as he finished recollecting the events that had happened a hundred years ago.

    A hundred years ago, there were the Two Goddesses of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and a hundred yearster, there were now the Four Great Beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. The irony thing was that he had actually known every single one of them¡­

    He was now a seventh realm sacred saint now except for a minor glitch; he had yet to gain the profound strength of a golden saint because he had burnt up all his inner cultivation sea in his desperate bid for a breakthrough.

    At the same time, he had ended his seclusion prematurely because he had remembered his pledge to Xia Jiajia.

    But now when he had returned, he was saddened to see that she hadrgely forgotten about him.

    Not only that, to add salt to injury, she had even dered that his beautiful beard was in fact, ugly.

    He muttered weakly, "I thought that she is attracted to me because of my beautiful beard. I am really blind. And to think that we have even exchange a pledge of love together in the past."

    All of a sudden he was rubbing his chin, "Actually I only lose a heaven-step precious sword but what I have in return is an earth-step divine sword. I didn''t really lose anything except for some hurtful feelings. Maybe I should forgive her?"

    But he was soon shaking his head, "Just because she has a pretty face and a beautiful body, are you going to lose yourst thread of your man''s pride and to forgive her for insulting your beard? No way is this going to happen."

    "Since she doesn''t know that I am really Ji Yuan and that she seems to be interested in me, maybe I should toy with her feelings first."

    "Am I that bad?"

    "I''m supposed to be the gentleman of the sword¡­."

    "Let''s not forget that I am in this state because of her¡­"

    He was soon sighing because she had conspired with Ling Feiyue to set him up.

    "No, this is just my guess and I''ve no evidence. If not why did she agree to my hundred years'' pledge? Aww Ji Yuan, you have almost made a big mistake and have wronged her. She did wait for me for a hundred years. I am the one that didn''t dare to tell her otherwise that I''m back¡­"

    "No wait, I still got a vendetta to settle with her for causing my sect to be in this horrible state and for causing Ye Chengxi to suffer."

    "Also why did she change her name from Xia Jiajia to Xia Jiaqing?"

    "Actually that is reasonable. Because Xue Qianxue is pursuing her and she is merely a fifth realm golden celestial back then. Therefore it is only reasonable that she is forced to change her name."

    All of a sudden, he was feeling a little guilty. "Actually it isn''t her fault. It is mine¡­"

    He began to sigh heavily as he recalled the night that he was spying on Xue Qianxue when she was taking her bath and he was now drooling a little at the steamy scene. "I didn''t follow the script that is given to me. If I had only checked the mirrors instead¡­"

    "If everything works ording to n, I may not be in this sorry state now¡­"

    "Maybe I am already holding Jiajia in the bed now¡­"

    Soon he had dozed off and he was dreaming that he was banging Xia Jiajia.

    He had failed to notice that a peerless exquisite maiden was quietly listening to his mutterings. She was leaning quietly against the wall as she listened.

    She was actually Xia Jiaqing.

    She said silently, "Ji Yuan, thank you for finding so many reasons to forgive me. It is better that you do not know that this is really a setup for you. It is better for you not to know what really happens. Or you won''t forgive me¡­"

    With a gentle tiptoe, she had quietly vanished from view.

    Ji Yuan would never know she had been around because Xia Jiaqing''s lightless skill was actually even more superior to that of Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and himself.

    The next day the Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing had summoned all the elders to her presence in the Great Emperor Hall.

    There used to be only four elders and now there were five elders.

    She was soon smiling to Li Qiang, Hai Sheng, Deng Qiu and Tang Ao who were the original four elders before turning her attention to smile warmly at Yuan Ji.<sub> </sub>

    "This is Elder Yuan Ji and he will be the fifth elder of the Emperor Hall Sect." She chuckled softly as she re-introduced Yuan Ji to everyone again.

    All four elders instantly expressed their shocks and protests against the ''sudden'' appointment of Yuan Ji as Elder.

    "How can Yuan Ji be an elder?"

    "He is only a lowly cultivator!"

    "In what way is he fit to be an elder of our great Emperor Hall Sect?"

    "Did he use sorcery on our Pce Mistress?"

    Actually the four elders had already known of Yuan Ji''s appointment through theirworks and they were merely pretending to express their fake surprises.

    "Oh? The four elders have some disagreements?" Xia Jiaqing yawned softly as she took azy look at them.

    Li Qiang immediately stepped forward, "Indeed! On this issue, it seems that the four elders are united on this matter!"

    Deng Qiu stroked his heavy beard as he hummed coldly, "This Yuan Ji is just a pretty face. Look at his beardless chin, he is just a youngd that still needs milk!"

    Yuan Ji was immediately flustered and just as he was about to rebuke Deng Qiu angrily, Xia Jiaqing was suddenly looking at Hai Sheng with a soft chuckle, "Weird. Elder Hai Sheng, why is your face so red?"

    Hai Sheng was immediately stammering, "I¡­I¡­" He was still suffering from the ill-effects of the ted Happiness Powder and now looking at the enticing figure of Xia Jiaqing in front of him was enough to turn him hard on.

    "Elder Hai Sheng, you do not look too well. Why don''t you retire first?" Xia Jiaqing offered a suggestion.

    Hai Sheng immediately lowered his head as he rushed out of the hall, "Indeed I am not well today. I am still suffering from the grief of losing my son¡­"

    Li Qiang was muttering, "The four elders here¡­the three elders here¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing had suddenly pped her hands as she yawned softly before walking off, "Dismiss¡­"

    Li Qiang, Deng Qiu and Tang Ao began to stare coldly after her as though they could not wait to rip her clothing apart and to set themselves on her.

    This was not lost on Yuan Ji who was quietly watching their lecherous eyes.

    He cursed softly, "Why did Xia Jiajia have to put herself in thepany of these wolves? Even her personal attendants cannot be trusted and are in cahoots with these elders."

    As soon as Xia Jiaqing and her personal attendants had disappeared from view, Li Qiang immediately said to Yuan Ji. "Elder Yuan Ji, do not say that I did not warn you first. The position of elder in the Emperor Hall Sect is not an easy position for you to manage."

    Deng Qiu smirked coldly, "Or a position that you can hold for even a few days. So watch your steps!"

    Tang Aoughed coldly, "An elder without the support of any prot¨¦g¨¦s is just a toothless tiger. If you are smart enough, you ought to tell Pce Mistress that you are willing to step down from your elder position. If you do so, I will be willing to take you under my wing and¡­" Heughed before he added slyly. "¡­and under my protection."

    Yuan Ji had three options now.

    One was to ingratiate himself with them immediately.

    Two was to taunt them back.

    Three was to keep quiet.

    He immediately made his option and said coldly, "I like being an elder. Maybe I will even ask Pce Mistress to make me a grand elder and be in charge of the elders. This will be better than in charge of any prot¨¦g¨¦s. Don''t you agree with me?"

    When he had said that, the three elders were all so flushed with anger that they waved angrily at him. "Just you watch out! You stupid fellow. You still don''t know the rules of the game yet! You will regret this!"

    When they had left the hall, Yuan Ji inhaled out a sigh of relief. "Actually I can''t beat them now. Maybe they did not dare to beat me up because they fear the Pce Mistress. But if I were to go out now, they will be waiting outside to beat me up."

    So he decided to stay inside the hall for a little while longer since he had nothing better to do.

    All of a sudden, he was thinking. "Weird. I''ve thought that Elder Hai Sheng has been afflicted by the ted Happiness Powderst night. How did he manage to have the strength to crawl here today?"

    He began to rub his chin, "I think I should take a little look at his residence¡­"

 Chapter 17 The Beast Of A Man (1)

    Yuan Ji was extremely confident of his lightless skill and his ability to follow anyone.

    With a sh, he had already sneaked out of the hall when the prot¨¦g¨¦s were looking in the other way.

    "Where is Elder Yuan Ji?"

    "He is here a moment ago¡­"

    It did not take him long to find Elder Hai Sheng as he dashed back to his residence.

    His residence was on top of a lofty mountain peak that was south of the Great Emperor Hall.

    Elder Hai Sheng was shouting to the dozens of prot¨¦g¨¦s that were lined up to greet him, "Get out of my way!"

    He was running rapidly back to his own residence.

    Although there were dozens of prot¨¦g¨¦s along the slope that led to Elder Sheng''s personal pce, none of them had noticed Yuan Ji as he slipped past them like a shadow.

    He had always thought that his lightless skill was second to none. But luckily he did not make that im when he was with Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue. It was only when he saw the lightless skill of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue that he had realized that their lightless skill was a notch better than his.

    Before long, he saw that Hai Sheng had barged into a courtyard and was shouting, "Don''t let anyonee into this ce. But if Fairy Ye Chengxi is here, allow her to look for me inside. Got it? If you got it then scram!"

    Yuan Ji was startled. "Chengxi will be here?! She will be vited by Hai Sheng for sure. This Hai Sheng is still under the influence of the ted Happiness Powder. I must think of a way to save her."

    Then he ruefully thought as he recalled Ye Chengxi''s beautiful looks, "With or without any ted Happiness Powder, she will be vited by him for sure."

    His eyes quickly followed Hai Sheng beyond the courtyard and he was now running across a man-madeke toward a beautiful three-storey building.

    Hai Sheng was now in front of the three-storey building and he had hastily pushed opened the gate as he made his way inside.

    In no time he had barged into a beautiful scented room, startling an elegant maiden who was inside. This elegant maiden was astonishing to look at; she had lovely eyes that were drawn like a beautiful phoenix and a tiny mouth that gave her an alluring appeal.

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply when he saw her; this maiden was indeed a city-toppling beauty. Moreover her quiet demeanor gave her an allure that was irresistible.

    This elegant maiden had quickly burst into tears when she saw Hai Sheng.

    Hai Shengughed jovially, "My little beauty, are you surprised to see me back so quickly? Why are you so eager to put on your clothes and why aren''t you waiting for me in the bed?"

    This elegant maiden immediately cursed him with her soft trembling voice, "Hai Sheng, you are a beast! You dare to vite your own daughter-inw. Your son''s spiritual tablet and coffin is still in the hall. Yet you dare to do this beastly act on me. Are you still fit to be a highly respected golden supremacy and an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect?"

    Hai Sheng was not angry butughed, "You know that I am afflicted by the ted Happiness Powder. This scented powder is extremely difficult to plunge unless the partner that I have copted with is a top beauty. Only then will my internal fires be vented off quickly."

    Then he had grabbed hold of her waist, "I have no other choice but to look for you. If not, how will I be able to face the Pce Mistress just now?"

    "Let me go, you beast of a man!" The beautiful maiden gasped as she swung her hands to beat Hai Sheng''s chest. But her handscked strength and it was like a soft tickle that made Hai Sheng even more excited.

    "You have been in my residence for so long. Do you think that you ought to repay me for giving you the resources to be a fourth realm cultivator?" Hai Shengughed.

    The fourth realm level was crucial to many of the cultivators. It was because this was the cultivation level that aging wouldpletely cease for them. Therefore the sooner that they were able to reach this crucial level, the better. This was especially so for the maidens that treasured their youths.

    "Or else it will be a pity for a flower like you to fade. You are indeed the top beauty in my residence." Hai Shengughed. "Later when your close sister Fairy Ye Chengxi hase, I will bed her as well."

    The elegant maiden was shocked, "Leave Chengxi alone." She screamed out softly, " I¡­will submit to¡­you¡­"

    Hai Shengughed, "But you are already mine sincest night. There is nothing to submit from you."

    He began to push her to the bed as he torn off her silk robe from her, revealing her inner lingerie. With a loud chuckle, he had pulled off her inner lingerie to reveal her beautiful naked peaks.

    "Hai Sheng, you will burn in hell!" The elegant maiden sobbed between her curses.

    Hai Sheng did not even pay attention to what she was saying and had loosened her silk belt. "What an enticing figure. I really can''t get enough of you."

    He quickly pulled her dress off before pulling down her pants to savor her with his lustful eyes.

    Hai Sheng wasughing, "You may not know this but my son only marries you to get closer to Fairy Ye Chengxi. Although you are a worthy recement but you are not Fairy Ye Chengxi. Today, I shall collect the interest for my dead son from you and the Goddess Fairy Chengxi."

    Yuan Ji had originally only wanted to be an observer as he was curious how Hai Sheng had managed to purge the effects of the ting Happiness Powder so quickly.

    What he did not expected from Hai Sheng was that he had vited his daughter-inw. And this daughter-inw of his seemed to be a cultured and a gentle maiden. She was extremely soft spoken and her strikescked strength despite the fact that she was a fourth realm cultivator herself.

    Immediately he had felt sympathy for her.

    Moreover he was moved to anger when he had immediately thought of what would happen to Ye Chengxiter.

    Hai Sheng was a sixth realm golden supremacy and he could easily ovee Ye Chengxi who was only a fifth realm golden celestial.<sub> </sub>

    Therefore although he knew that he may not be Hai Sheng''s match but he had decided to take a bold gambit as he dashed into the room with his flying sword!

    He had only got one chance before Hai Sheng could make his retaliation!

    The instant that he had flown through the window, Hai Sheng had immediately turned around with almost supernatural reflexes. "It is you, Yuan Ji!"

    Yuan Ji''s sword exploded through Hai Sheng sudden golden animus that had burst out to protect his body from harm.

    Hai Sheng was a golden celestial of the sixth realm level. Whenever an attack happened against a golden celestial, the profound aura that was protecting a golden celestial would automatically be triggered. It was extremely difficult for a low level cultivator to hurt or to surprise a golden celestial.

    Hai Sheng wasughing, "My profound aura is a sixth realm profound aura and I''ve the golden body of a golden supremacy. Do you think that your mere attack will even work on me? It is merely scratching me¡­"

    All of a sudden Hai Sheng had ceased hisughter and he was foaming golden blood.

    Slowly he looked down at the body and saw that Yuan Ji''s sword had actually pierced through his heart.

    He was shocked. "How is this even¡­possible?"

    Then he noticed that the sword that was in Yuan Ji''s sword was no ordinary precious sword but was in fact an earth-step divine sword that could easily prate through his golden body!

    "How did you manage toy your hands on a divine sword¡­you are¡­only a lowly cultivator¡­"

    Hai Sheng quickly grabbed the divine sword as he attempted to pull it out of his body. Because he was a golden celestial, his wounds would quickly heal and even his organs would regenerate if the divine sword could be pulled out.

    This was the great disparity that existed between a normal cultivator and a cultivator that had be a golden celestial!

    Hai Sheng was smiling now. It was because Yuan Ji may have seeded in a lucky strike against him but hecked the profound strength to truly kill him.

    In fact Yuan Ji would only be delivering a free divine sword to his hands instead.

    Yuan Ji saw that Hai Sheng had grabbed the des of his divine sword and he knew that he was in trouble.

    Very quickly, he began to circte all the profound strength that he could muster to temporary raise his profound strength level to that of a fifth realm golden celestial level.

    Almost instantly the divine sword had channeled his profound strength into a burst of profound sword energies that exploded into Hai Sheng''s heart.

    Hai Sheng waspletely stunned as he took a step back. Did he just feel the profound power of a fifth realm golden celestial exploding through his heart?

    But he could not think any further because this time round, he was truly dead as he copsed onto the ground. There was now no more heart for his golden body to regenerate.

    As for Yuan Ji, he had copsed backward with weak steps and had to bnce himself with his sword.

    He was now smiling bitterly to himself.

    He had lost all his profound energies that he had painfully cultivated when he had forcefully raised his profound strength to the fifth realm cultivation level to kill Hai Sheng.

    He did not know whether he should be d or not.

    He was actually three times lucky in this strike.

    One: he had a divine sword.

    Two: he had managed to aim Hai Sheng''s heart.

    Three: he had only one chance to muster his profound energies against Hai Sheng and Hai Sheng did not even use his profound strength to suppress his attack because he was not expecting Yuan Ji to seriously hurt him.

    The elegant maiden was stunned by what had happened and she was shocked that Hai Sheng had actually died.

    But she quickly regained herposure as she kneeled down tearfully, "Your humble servant Shangguan Yan thanks great benefactor¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was stunned; it was because he had suddenly remember that he had a prot¨¦g¨¦ by the name of Shangguan Yan in the past and she was also Ye Chengxi''s junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister.

    He smiled bitterly as he quickly said to her. "Please don''t thank me¡­" Half of his eyes were actually staring at her naked figure and he was now half-drooling.

    He was actually not a pervert or was looking at Shangguan Yan in a lustful manner. It was just that this Shangguan Yan was too enticing to his eyes.

    But unfortunately at this time, Ye Chengxi had walked into the room and was gasping with shock; especially when she saw a naked Shangguan Yan kneeling in front of Yuan Ji and a dead Hai Sheng in the background.

    When Yuan Ji saw Ye Chengxi, he panicky blurted out. "It is not what you think it is¡­I can exin¡­"

    Now that he hadpletely exhausted his profound strength, it would only take one stroke from Ye Chengxi topletely end his life.

    And Ye Chengxi had already brandished her precious sword with a brilliant re against Yuan Ji as she said icily, "You are a beast of a man!"

 Chapter 18 The Beast Of A Man (2)

    Fairy Ye Chengxi''s beaming long sword had shed at Yuan Ji''s throat but the final strike did note.

    It was because her fingers were now trembling uncontrobly.

    She could only mutter almost incoherently, "You are a beast of a man¡­you vite my junior sister¡­do you know that she''s your¡­" She would not tell him that she actually knew that he was his old master and could only say silently. "Master, Chengxi is so disappointed in you!"

    "Sister Chengxi, this hero here saves me from this beast of a man." Shangguan Yan pointed to the dead Hai Sheng as she said coldly. "In fact, he is my great benefactor."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped softly, "What is going on here?"

    -

    -

    -

    Shangguan Yan was still sobbing softly when she had finished telling Ye Chengxi what had happened.

    Ye Chengxi looked at Yuan Ji quietly as she averted her eyes, "So this is what has happened. He is really the real beast of a man."

    Then her eyes were panicky as she muttered, "But what shall we do now? Elder Hai Sheng is dead now¡­my Orthodox Sword Sect will be wiped out once this deed has been discovered."

    Yuan Ji interrupted awkwardly as he looked at Shangguan Yan. "This is not the whole truth. I''ve killed Hai Guotian too. If you want to take vengeance for him and to find someone to me for your misfortunate, you can look for me. I am Yuan Ji. I am also the new Elder of the Emperor Hall Sect. You can look for me anytime to take your revenge."

    But Shangguan Yan hummed softly, "Good. Well done."

    Yuan Ji: ???

    "She is not taking vengeance for Hai Guotian?" He thought curiously.

    Ye Chengxi said tearfully as she hugged Shangguan Yan tightly, "Sister, I''m the reason why you are suffering in this ce."

    Shangguan Yan shook her head gently, "It''s not your fault. It is all the work of our old master. He had left us just like this¡­"

    Ye Chengxi said panicky as she stolen a secret look at Yuan Ji, "Do not be disrespectful to our old master. He didn''t know and I''m the useless sect leader here."

    "In this world, only you will still ord him with the greatest of all respect. I hope he is dead and will nevere back." Shangguan Yan said tearfully and her soft voice was trembling hard.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was thinking, "I didn''t know that I am so unpopr and everyone is suffering because I am not around. But do you know that if I am still around, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue will not spare me or my sect. I have no other choice but to hide and to try for a breakthrough to fight them."

    He put on a strong resolve to find out what the plot that was against him a hundred years ago and to find out who the conspirers were fornding him into this woeful state.

    Yuan Ji suddenly said, "I have a n and we have to enact upon it immediately."

    Both Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were now looking curiously at him.

    He inhaled deeply before he said, "Everyone knows that Fairy Ye Chengxi is here but they do not know that I am here. Therefore the n is really simple. I will pretend to be a masked assant and have Fairy Ye Chengxi to chase me for some time until we have enough witnesses."

    Then he gave Shangguan Yan a gentle look which caused her to flush lightly, "We will need Maiden Shangguan Yan''s help to be the main witness and to scream after us. She is actually the key witness to all these."

    "So what do you think of this n?" He asked them.

    "It is a good n¡­" Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan said at the same time. They were suddenly looking at each other with a flushed look.

    Shangguan Yan suddenly looked at Yuan Ji, "This is a good n but there may be a little problem with it."

    Yuan Ji was curious, "Which is?"

    Shangguan Yan said quietly, "I wonder if Master Yuan Ji still has the strength to flee from my Sister Ye Chengxi and the other pursuers once this n is enacted?"

    Then she looked at Yuan Ji intently before saying, "If you still have your profound strength, you will be able to dodge my prot¨¦g¨¦ sister''s attack earlier. Or is there another reason why you are unable to evade her ordinary stroke?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    He had indeed used up most of his profound strength. In order to use his lightless skill, he would need his profound strength or he would be running just like an ordinary man and he would be breathless in no time.

    "Please wait me a little while." Shangguan Yan said quietly as she disappeared from the room.

    In no time she was back with an exquisite box as she quietly opened it as she said shyly to Yuan Ji, "This is for you."

    Inside the box was arge crimson pill and Yuan Ji''s divine sense had told him that thisrge crimson pill was imbued with strong spiritual force.

    Yuan Ji had actually recognized this crimson pill and he was stammering, "This is the Red Dragon Divine Pill, a fifth rank divine pill¡­but how¡­"

    This Red Dragon Divine Pill was able to restore his lost profound strength more rapidly than any other profound pills that he had and it could also provide a quick burst of profound strength to him almost instantly.

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly, "It isn''t mine but it is yours now."

    Yuan Ji was stunned.

    Fifth rank divine pills were extremely precious and rare in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Even if his Orthodox Sword Sect was at its peak, he would still be unable to afford one-tenth of a fifth rank divine pill and moreover this was the Red Dragon Divine Pill. It had other spiritual properties besides just restoring one''s profound strength.

    "Maiden Shangguan Yan, I believe that you have only one such Red Dragon Divine Pill. Do you know that this divine pill will be able to propel a fourth realm cultivator to a fifth realm golden celestial immediately? It is too precious for me to take. You should keep it for yourself." He said quietly.

    Shangguan Yan smiled at him shyly, "Isn''t this good for you then? You can be a golden celestial."

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly to himself, "Actually I am a seventh realm saint now¡­I have used a secret profound art to lower my cultivation realm¡­"

    Ye Chengxi was thinking, "Junior sister doesn''t know he is our old master¡­"

    "Why don''t you want it? Isn''t this a profound treasure that everyone wants?" Shangguan Yan said curiously.

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "This is really too precious for me to take. I can''t take it¡­"

    "Why not? You are my great benefactor." Shangguan Yan sighed softly before she added. "Or you are looking down at me and in your heart, you despise me?"

    Yuan Ji was startled, "No, I don''t¡­"

    "Then take it. This is my gratitude to you." Shangguan Yan said firmly.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. "This is really too precious. I really can''t take it¡­"

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan had gently popped the Red Dragon Divine Pill into his mouth and was looking at him with great tenderness, "Do you want to force my hand? Right now, you can''t even defeat me and I''m a very, very weak cultivator."

    Suddenly Yuan Ji felt extreme guilt in his heart.

    It was because he had remembered in the past he was always rebuking her harshly.

    "Yan''Er, you are so useless. You are a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and yet you are weaker than an ordinary prot¨¦g¨¦!"

    "Yan''Er, we are a sword sect and you can''t even wield a sword properly? Where is your grip?"

    "Why your sword strikes are alwayscking in strength. You can''t even hurt an ant¡­"

    "Yan''Er, how many times must I tell you already? You arepletely useless and hopeless¡­"

    "You are unfit to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect¡­"

    And yet when the Orthodox Sword Sect was facing its greatest crisis, Shangguan Yan had stepped forward to sacrifice her happiness to buy time for her sect leader and senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister Ye Chengxi to save the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Now, she was even offering the Red Dragon Divine Pill to her great benefactor that she did not know was actually her old master.

    Yuan Ji waspletely ashamed of himself¡­

    "Actually I am the one that is really the beast of a man¡­"

 Chapter 19 Shangguan Yan (1)

    Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing had hastily summoned all the elders to her presence as she said solemnly, "I am sure that all of you know what had happened to Elder Hai Sheng, am I right?"

    When Yuan Ji saw her, he was gasping softy. She was too beautiful today, dressed in a rich light blue dress that had the likeness of a beautiful mystic bird.

    He was muttering almost incoherently to himself, "Don''t be fooled by her great beauty. Don''t be so na?ve to trust herpletely¡­"

    Li Qiang took a step forward as he stared coldly at Yuan Ji, Deng Qiu and Tang Ao before saying, "My respects to the Pce Mistress. I''m sure that his killer must be among us!"

    Deng Qiu said coldly, "Watch your mouth! I say the killer is you instead!"

    Li Qiangughed, "Did I say that the killer is you? Look who has the guilty heart here?"

    Deng Qiu hummed coldly, "I am the killer? I have lost my son to this mysterious killer too!"

    Tang Ao interrupted them, "I say we must investigate Fairy Ye Chengxi instead. She is thest person to see Elder Hai Sheng alive."

    p Then he was smiling wryly, "Let me interrogate her¡­"</anda>

    Xia Jiaqing interrupted him sharply, "She is not the killer. There are many witnesses and even Shangguan Yan can vouch for her."

    Tang Ao smiled coldly, "Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi are prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters. Who knows if they are telling the truth?"

    "So you think that with theirbined puny skills, they are able to kill Elder Hai Sheng at all? Do you even know how formidable Elder Hai Sheng is?" Xia Jiaqing hummed coldly. "And do you think that they can even afford to have a single divine sword capable of doing so? If they are unable to afford one then the killer must be someone who is at least on an even level to Elder Hai Sheng."

    Then she took a cold look at Tang Ao, Deng Qiu and Li Qiang. "The three of you are also sixth realm golden supremacies. Do you think you are able to kill Elder Hai Sheng so quickly that the entire room seems undisturbed?"

    Li Qiang, Tang Ao and Deng Qiu were suddenly quiet. It was because even if they could surprise Hai Sheng, it was not possible to kill him so quickly.

    "Rather than fingering the me on one another and sowing discord among yourself much to the delight of our enemies, you should be trying to find out who is our most likely enemy." Xia Jiaqing rebuked gently.

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly, "Maybe the Emperor Hall Sect has too many enemies in recent years to really know who its enemies are."

    Li Qiang, Tang Ao and Deng Qiu were now staring coldly at Yuan Ji because this remark of his was not funny at all.

    "Very well then. Elder Yuan Ji, you will lead the investigation." Xia Jiaqing winked at him. "I want you to report directly to me on a daily basis on the progress of your investigation."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­.

    He immediately protested, "I don''t think I am the right person to do this¡­"

    Xia Jiaqing interrupted sharply, "My decision is final."

    Li Qiang, Tang Ao and Deng Qiu were all smiling now; it was because Xia Jiaqing was known to deliver the sect punishment to anyone that failed to aplish their tasks. Moreover, this was an extremely tricky task to find the killer.

    "One more thing, Yuan Ji¡­" Xia Jiaqing smiled after a quick ponder. "I want you to take over the duties of Elder Hai Sheng. That will include his residence and his prot¨¦g¨¦s. His duties are very important to the Emperor Hall Sect and include the debt repayments from the various celestial ns like the Orthodox Sword Sect. But remember this; do not press Fairy Ye Chengxi for any interest."

    Li Qiang immediately said, "Pce Mistress, this won''t do. Elder Hai Sheng''s duties are tooplicated for a new elder to handle. Let me be in charge of it instead."

    Tang Ao and Deng Qiu were both saying at the same time too, "Let me be in charge of it instead."

    Xia Jiaqing smiled at her three elders, "What? So that you can siphon the sect''s treasuries, am I right?"

    Li Qiang smiled weakly, "I am incorruptible."

    Tang Ao patted his chest loudly, "Same here!"

    Deng Qiuughed, "Even if I have ten lives, I dare not do such a despicable thing."

    All of a sudden Xia Jiaqing threw several scrolls on the floor, "ording to Hai Sheng''s secret ounts, all of you have taken his bribes. I am missing millions of silvers and hundreds of high grade spirit stones. Even my Red Dragon Divine Pill is also missing from my treasury. How do all of you exin about this?"

    Li Qiang smiled weakly, "Please believe us Pce Mistress. We will never do anything like this. It must be doctored by Hai Sheng."

    Deng Qiu and Tang Ao had turned ashen as they picked up the scrolls to read. "It is all doctored by Hai Sheng. We did nothing like this."

    "Therefore I am sending Yuan Ji to check the ounts and to bnce everything again." Xia Jiaqing said sternly.<sub> </sub>

    Li Qiang, Tang Ao and Deng Qiu were all smiling weakly, "Yes, yes."

    Yuan Ji was smiling weakly to himself, "The Red Dragon Divine Pill is now inside my stomach. How do you expect me to find it for you?"

    Then he was looking at Xia Jiaqing and saw her two cute bunny hair as he thought, "She looks so cute and beautiful today¡­"

    "Yuan Ji, when you take over Hai Sheng''s residence, you must also take good care of Shangguan Yan." Xia Jiaqing had turned to smile wryly at him. "She is a lonely widow now."

    Yuan Ji replied awkwardly, "This is for sure."

    "Good. Then you shall take her as your little concubine." Xia Jiaqing chuckled softly.

    Yuan Ji was stunned, "What? This is impossible. I can''t do it."

    Tang Ao was smiling lecherously, "If Elder Yuan Ji doesn''t want to take care of her, I''m willing to do so. Why don''t Pce Mistress gives her to me?"

    Deng Qiu was also smiling, "I am also willing to take care of Shangguan Yan."

    Li Qiangughed, "I am the most willing."

    Shangguan Yan was really an enticing quiet beauty and the three elders were now filled with lusts that they could have her. Since Yuan Ji did not want her then they would be the kind soul to take her in instead!

    Yuan Ji was shocked when these three elders were all seizing the chance to take Shangguan Yan. He felt that he had really owed Shangguan Yan a lot for what she did for the Orthodox Sword Sect in recent years and he was guilty for treating her so harshly in the past.

    Therefore he said loudly, "Who says I''m not willing to take care of Shangguan Yan?"

    Li Qiangughed, "You just did. We all heard you loud and clear earlier. If you back off from what you''ve just said, how do we trust you to manage our sect''s ounts in the future? This means that you''re not an honorable or a trustworthy person at all."

    "Brother Li Qiang is right." Deng Qiuughed aloud. "How can we trust you in the future?"

    Tang Ao stared coldly at Yuan Ji, "Shangguan Yan can only wed one of us here today!"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before he said weakly, "I only say that this is impossible for me to take her as my little concubine but I never say I won''t take her to be my main consort. She doesn''t deserve to be a concubine to anyone. I shall grant her a proper status instead."

    When he had said that, Xia Jiaqing had turned extremely quiet and all the three elders were rendered speechless.

    Finally Xia Jiaqing inhaled softly, "So be it then. She shall be your consort proper." Then she was smiling, "I''ve a little surprise for you."

    "Surprise? What surprise?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    "You will only know on your wedding day." Xia Jiaqing chuckled softly and her beautiful golden eyes were sparking.

    Yuan Jiughed. "That won''t be so soon." He was thinking, "Crap. What am I saying to Jiajia? I only want to take Jiajia as my consort. Did I just screw myself up? Now I can only dy this wedding as far back as possible."

    Xia Jiaqing chuckled, "You will actually know it very soon. I will help you to host your wedding tomorrow."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He immediately said, "Our priority should be to find the killer first¡­"

    But Xia Jiaqing was already saying to her personal attendants, "Go make arrangements for it and announce it to the entire Emperor Hall Sect. Since Elder Yuan Ji used to be a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect and Shangguan Yan is a junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister of Fairy Ye Chengxi, please send an invitation to Fairy Ye Chengxi."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji was blinking his eyes as he muttered almost incoherently to himself. "Xia Jiaqing, I thought that you say you like me? Why are you forcing me to marry Shangguan Yan then?"

    But it seemed that Xia Jiaqing could hear his thoughts and she was heard giggling, "Remember, I didn''t force you. You have said you want to take Shangguan Yan as your consort yourself. I am sure you will be curious to know what my little surprise for you will be tomorrow."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xia Jiaqing was actually cursing him quietly, "I only ask you to take her as your concubine but you are actually taking her as your consort."

 Chapter 20 Shangguan Yan (2)

    Today was Yuan Ji''s big day with Shangguan Yan.

    But everything was in a daze for Yuan Ji. He could only remember the fake smiles and congrattions that hade from the other three elders. In their eyes, there were only envious look and hatred for him.

    And now he was sitting in the bridal room with Shangguan Yan.

    Shangguan Yan did not remove her bridal headdress that had also veiled her face as she waiting for her groom to do so.

    Yuan Ji was not happy at all. It was not because he was unhappy with Shangguan Yan; she was perfect in many ways.

    But he really did not have the heart to face her.

    It was because he med himself fornding her in her woeful state.

    Moreover there was another reason too.

    He had regarded himself as her highly respected old master. Although he had a new identity now but this master-disciple rtionship had never changed in his heart. Therefore he was unwilling to enter the bridal chamber.

    The two of them just sat there for a long time without exchanging a word.

    Finally Shangguan Yan was weeping and her soft gentle voice was heard saying. "Brother Yuan Ji, are you despising me that you don''t even want to look at me?"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Not at all."

    "Then why won''t you lift my veil and look at me?"

    "That is because¡­" Yuan Ji could not continue. It was because he could find no other reasons not to do so.

    Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    "No, you really despise me."

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply, "No, I really don''t."

    Shangguan Yan was trembling now. "You are lying."

    "Yan''Er, I am not lying to you." Yuan Ji sighed even heavier than before.

    "You call me Yan''Er?" Shangguan Yan trembled even harder than before and her tears were dripping down on her dress. "Why are you calling me so intimately yet you''re so distant at the same time¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He had always called her Yan''Er. Just now he had identally let slip of his tongue.

    "My old master used to call me Yan''Er too." Shangguan Yan sobbed softly.

    "Your old master must have liked you so much too." Yuan Ji forced himself to smile.

    "No, he don''t. He¡­dislikes me in fact. He is always scolding me. I can never do anything right in his eyes. In his eyes, I am unfit to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and he often said that he must be blind to choose me to be his core prot¨¦g¨¦." Shangguan Yan was trembling uncontroble now as the bad memories of her old master returned to her.

    Yuan Ji was also trembling uncontrobly. Yes, he did say all these hurtful words to her in the past and more.

    He had wanted to be the strict master and he did not see anything wrong with that. It was because he had an equally strict master in the past too and he had always thought this was the proper way to teach the prot¨¦g¨¦s so that they could be outstanding cultivators. After all, the life of a cultivator could be extremely brutal. One wrong mishap and their life would be consumed by their cultivation practices.

    In the end, it was his useless Shangguan Yan that had supported his Orthodox Sword Sect with her self-sacrifices.

    He really felt so ashamed of himself.

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan had her hands touching his arm gently, "But I have my lord now¡­do I?" Her fingers were trembling hard when she had said that. It was because she was unsure if she was right to say so.

    Yuan Ji could feel her trembling fingers on his arm and he could see her tears that were dripping.

    Finally he said gently and he was also trembling, "Yan''Er, don''t cry. From today onward, you are not alone anymore. Forget your old master. He is already no more. In the future, I will take good care of you."

    "Really¡­" Shangguan Yan''s voice was trembling. She could not believe what she was hearing. "Then why¡­don''t you take off my bridal veil yet?"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly as he took off her bridal veil with trembling fingers.

    He could see her tearful and sorrowful eyes. Immediately his heart was aching. He muttered, "Sorry. I am too insensitive."

    Their eyes locked gently and Yuan Ji said quietly, "Yan''Er, you are so beautiful today."

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes as she said softly, "No, I am not. My eyes must be so swollen now and my face must be fluffy, I am ugly to look at."<sub> </sub>

    "No, you''re not. You are really very beautiful now." Yuan Ji said firmly.

    Shangguan Yan shook her head gently, "Chengxi is more beautiful than me¡­the way you look at her is different from when you look at me¡­I saw your eyes are constantly on her."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "My sister didn''t even want toe to my wedding today. She must be so heartbroken right now. And you are the same. I can tell that the way my sister looks at you ispletely different too."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He smiled weakly, "Yan''Er, say no more. From now onward, I''ll take good care of you. Alright?"

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes as she said gently, "Brother Yuan Ji, your Yan''Er must let you know something first or else you will be unhappy with meter."

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "I won''t be unhappy with you. Don''t worry."

    "Pce Mistress says she has a surprise for you."

    Yuan Ji was startled. He hadpletely forgotten about Xia Jiaqing''s surprise.

    He smiled bitterly, "Nothing good will evere out from her little surprise."

    Shangguan Yan lowered her eyes and her lips were trembling, "I''m actually Pce Mistress'' spy."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Although he was surprised but he quickly regained hisposure to say, "Well, this is a little surprise. But I don''t me Yan''Er. You must have your own difficulties for doing so."

    But he was suddenly perplexed. "Why did Xia Jiaqing wants me to know that Shangguan Yan is her spy? Is it because she is trying to remind me that she is constantly watching over me? Isn''t it better that I do not know who is spying over me? She is too tactless¡­she is really a bimbo¡­"

    Shangguan Yan continued slowly and her voice grew even softer, "My body is still pure."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He waspletely stunned and surprised as he thought, "Don''t tell me this is the surprise?!"

    His pupils had turned white and he felt like flipping over to the ground right now.

    "On my first day here, Pce Mistress had secretly approached me and asks me to be her spy. In exchange, she gave me a special scent to apply on my fingernails. This special scent will cause men to develop delusions once I''ve scratched them. Even a golden supremacy has no immunities to it."

    Yuan Ji stared nkly at Shangguan Yan and he was suddenly stoned.

    He was trembling all of a sudden as he stammered, "Pce Mistress has protected my Yan''Er since the very start¡­"

    "Yan''Er, I need to go out for a little while and I''ll be back soon. Alright?" He quickly said to Shangguan Yan.

    Shangguan Yan was about to say something but Yuan Ji quickly interrupted her with a gentle smile. "I will be back for youter. I have never despised you and will never do so. You are my consort now. But there is something that I must ask Pce Mistress now."

    With that he had dashed out of the bridal chamber.

    It was because he had suddenly realized that Xia Jiaqing had already known who he was and that was the only reason why she was letting Shangguan Yan to inform him of her ''little'' surprise.

    He was now panicking, "Jiajia, I''ve wronged you¡­"

    He had to find her quickly before it was toote.

    Why did he have to sit in the bridal chamber for so long?!

    If he was not wrong then tonight it would be thest time that he would see Xia Jiaqing again. He prayed that he was wrong this time!

    He was muttering, "You are a fool not to trust her."

    "Don''t be fooled by her great beauty¡­"

    "Don''t be so na?ve to trust herpletely¡­"

    "I didn''t say that. It is my inner demon that is feeding me the wrong ideas¡­"

 Chapter 21 Xue Qianxue Is Our Enemy

    Yuan Ji had rushed out of the bridal chamber.

    Along the way, he had passed by the great hall and there were still many guests who were drinking merrily.

    Everyone had astonished look when they saw Yuan Ji.

    "Isn''t that Elder Yuan Ji?"

    "Isn''t he supposed to be bedding the bride now?"

    "Why is he out?"

    "Why is he in a rush?"

    "Don''t tell me he is already done after 2 mins?"

    "Come, let follow him and have a look¡­"

    Almost immediately, half of the guests began to follow Yuan Ji.

    When they had followed Yuan Ji to the outer courtyard, everyone including Yuan Ji was stunned by what they were seeing in front of them.

    Dozens of bodies wasying everywhere.

    But the most startling were seeing the dead bodies of Li Qiang, Deng Qiu and Tang Ao!

    Three sixth realm golden supremacies had all died with barely a sound, along with several powerful cultivators that were at the fourth and fifth realm level.

    This was impossible, right?

    No one could perform such a feat, right?

    Everyone was now staring nkly at the dead bodies and Yuan Ji was staring the hardest.

    Yuan Ji first thought was that Xia Jiaqing had been killed and he was trembling uncontrobly.

    "I saw Pce Mistress walking out with the elders¡­"

    "Is our Pce Mistress among the dead?"

    "Who will be so vicious to kill all our elders¡­"

    "All our top experts are killed overnight¡­"

    "The Emperor Hall Sect is a goner now¡­"

    Yuan Ji was dazed as he muttered almost incoherently, "Jiajia, you are still alive. Am I right?"

    With a nked look, he checked the corpses of the three elders and saw that every single of them was killed very quickly, almost without any resistance. It was not because they were all taken by surprise but because their defenses totally tanked under when they were attacked.

    Finally Yuan Ji muttered out, "Seventh realm sacred saint expert."

    "Elder Yuan Ji, what is going on around here?"

    "Who kill our elders?"

    "Even the sons of the elders are all dead¡­"

    "Who is so vicious?"

    "It is impossible for this to happen. Are we dreaming?"

    Yuan Ji opened up their clothes and saw the palm imprints that were on their bodies. It was the palm imprint of a maiden''s hand.

    Then he was gasping, "Xue Qianxue¡­"

    It was because only Xue Qianxue had a feud with Xia Jiaqing and she was also a seventh realm expert!

    When everyone heard that it was Xue Qianxue, they were gasping loudly. "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue?"

    "This make sense. Our Pce Mistress seems to dislike Xue Qianxue and she is always asking us to keep a tab on her."

    "This is a massacre and an unrighteous act. Why should Xue Qianxue do something like this to lose her repute?"

    "Did you see Xue Qianxue doing it? We have no proof at all. This is just our wild guess. She may be the one that kills our elders and Pce Mistress but we can''t do anything to her¡­"

    Yuan Ji shouted, "Stop muttering there. Raise the rm and find our Pce Mistress!"

    Then he added coldly, "No matter if we have proof or not, I want the whole fraternity to know that it is Xue Qianxue that has done this evil deed. Go and announce it to everyone and have them to announce it to the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    -

    -

    -

    A few hourster;

    The reports of the dead had finallye in. All the elders and almost all the experts of the Emperor Hall Sect had all died mysteriously.

    But Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing was not among the dead.

    Yuan Ji was trembling when he had stepped into the bridal chamber again. Everything had happened too sudden and he was now in a daze.

    "Xue Qianxue hates Jiajia. Therefore she may not want to kill her immediately. Maybe Jiajia is still alive and I can still save her. Even if I were to storm the powerful Celestial Orthodox Sect, I will still do it."

    Shangguan Yan was still sitting quietly on the bridal bed as she waited for Yuan Ji to return. When she saw Yuan Ji, she immediately smiled shyly. "My lord, have you found Pce Mistress?"

    But all of a sudden, she saw that Yuan Ji was trembling and he was in a daze. "You didn''t find her?"

    Yuan Jiughed coldly as he hit his fist on the wall, "Someone attacks us this very night. All the elders and top experts of the Emperor Hall Sect are all dead now."

    Shangguan Yan gasped in shock but she was soon smiling coldly, "Good. They are all not good men."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly when he had heard her, "Yan''Er, why do you say that? We are all prot¨¦g¨¦s of the same sect¡­"

    But Shangguan Yan interrupted him softly, "But you have killed Hai Sheng. In your heart, they are not your fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s. Do you know that even Pce Mistress often says to me that they are all not good men?"<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "She really says that? I can only see that she has closed her eyes to their many misdeeds. She knew that the elders have siphoned off the treasuries and she had proof. Yet she is so eager to believe they are framed and only ask me to investigate the ounts. She can''t even be bothered to punish them."

    Shangguan Yan said quietly, "She is smarter than them so I believe that Pce Mistress knows what she is doing."

    "Of course she thinks that she is smarter than them. She is only trying to make use of them to fight against one another. But this will only allow these viins to grow even more arrogant." Yuan Ji said ruefully. "And now, she may even be dead."

    Shangguan Yan was gasping with shock, "Something has happened to Pce Mistress?"

    Yuan Ji said with trembling voice, "Xue Qianxue may have juste and massacre all the elders. Our Pce Mistress may be taken away by her. They are all killed by a powerful profound art and Xue Qianxue''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art is ranked in the top ten most powerful profound arts. Only she has the ability to massacre everyone so quickly."

    Shangguan Yan was trembling and she was gasping with tears, "Pce Mistress has always treated me so kindly¡­this¡­can''t be true¡­"

    Yuan Ji clenched his fists tightly, "Xue Qianxue, I won''t forgive you¡­"

    He was beginning to imagine the tortures that Xue Qianxue would put through to Xia Jiajia before she finally sumbed to her injuries.

    Shangguan Yan muttered, "Brother Yuan Ji, do you still want to hear Pce Mistressst message for you?"

    "What message? Why didn''t you tell me earlier?" Yuan Ji muttered with a heavy sigh.

    "I try to but you didn''t give me a chance to speak." Shangguan Yan said quietly as she took a nce at him.

    Yuan Ji had suddenly remembered that he was the one that had interrupted Shangguan Yan as he was in a hurry to find Xia Jiajia earlier.

    He muttered sadly, "This is most probably herst will. Tell me about it."

    Shangguan Yan nodded before she said softly, "She asks you to take good care of yourself and she will only see you again if you are able to be a romantic cultivator."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "What? She says that?!" Yuan Ji was stunned.

    Shangguan Yan asked curiously, "What is wrong?"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was sheepishly looking at Shangguan Yan before he asked weakly, "Do you think that it is actually Pce Mistress that has massacred all the elders?"

    The reason why he was suddenly asking this was because thisst message from her had indicated to him that Xia Jiaqing had gone missing on purpose.

    Shangguan Yan nodded quietly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Why do you think it is a possibility?"

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly before she said, "I don''t know for sure but Pce Mistress certainly has the ability to move freely everywhere without the elders knowing."

    Yuan Ji was blinking his eyes, "She isn''t a saintess. How did she manage to do so? She is only an upper tier sixth realm golden supremacy."

    Shangguan Yan looked at him curiously, "She isn''t a saintess?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Of course she isn''t a saintess. Everyone knows that she is only a golden supremacy. I brought that information before Ie."

    "Then I may have heard wrongly." Shangguan Yan said quietly.

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "What did she say? I am just curious to know."

    "Once she is so upset with the elders that she says softly, do they believe that this saintess here will one day kill them whenever I want?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was suddenly muttering, "A hundred years ago, she was only a peaked fifth realm golden celestial but a hundred yearster, she is an upper tier sixth realm golden supremacy. This advancement is really too swift. Why didn''t I discover this loophole in her stories?"

    Then he was muttering, "If Ling Feiyue can also lie to me about her cultivation level, so can Xia Jiajia. I am such a fool. If she isn''t a saintess, why should Xia Qianxue even bother with her¡­the enemy of a saint is always a saint¡­"

    "So she is really the one that has massacred everyone? But why? Isn''t this her sect?"

    Suddenly he had a realization in his mind;

    "She is merely waiting here for me¡­"

    "To keep her a hundred years pledge for me¡­"

    "She has already recognized me when I have returned but she did not expose me¡­"

    "She made me an elder because she already knew who I am¡­"

    "Then she made me marry Shangguan Yan because she knows that she is my disciple¡­"

    "She made me take over the treasuries that Hai Sheng was in charge of because she wants me to siphon the treasury¡­"

    "This is her surprise for me¡­"

    "The reasons why she did not act against these elders are because they are already dead men in her eyes¡­"

    "Once everything is in ce, she can finally leave¡­"

    "I see her everyday yet I do not treasure her but curse her every single day when she is Pce Mistress¡­"

    "Jiajia, why didn''t you want to acknowledge me? I''m serious about our one hundred years pledge¡­."

    "No, it isn''t her fault. I am the one that refuse to acknowledge her. I am in disguise but she isn''t. This is a great misunderstanding¡­"

    "Jiajia, I will look to the ends of the earth and find you¡­"

    "And what does she mean by she will see me again when I''ve be a romantic cultivator? Is it because I''ve no beard now? That must be it. I must quickly restore my beautiful beard at all costs¡­"

    Shangguan Yan saw that Yuan Ji was in a daze so she gently said, "Brother Yuan Ji, are you alright?"

    Yuan Ji quickly snapped out of his trace and he was soon staring nkly at Shangguan Yan. "I just remember something really important and we ought to pack up quickly."

    "Which is?" Shangguan Yan asked curiously.

    Yuan Ji smiled most bitterly, "Well, you see. I think I''ve just offended Xue Qianxue (again). I''ve just told all the prot¨¦g¨¦s in the Emperor Hall Sect to spread a rumor that Xue Qianxue has massacred all our elders, except for me of course. When she has heard of this, she won''t be pleased at all and wille after me."

 Chapter 22 To Stay Or Not To Stay

    Shangguan Yan had suddenly asked him, "Brother Yuan Ji, where are we going?"

    Yuan Ji was startled. He did not really think of that yet. So he said, "We can go to the Orthodox Sword Sect to seek refuge?"

    Shangguan Yan gently shook her head, "This won''t do at all. You will only get Chengxi into trouble. She can''t cope on her own already and she won''t be able to cope with the added pressure from Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "We can hide in the mountains. No one will be able to find us. But it will be hard on you."

    Shangguan Yan smiled gentle, "I don''t mind following my lord to the mountains but may your consort say an unpleasant word to you?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Why are you so polite to me? I won''t be upset. Please say."

    Shangguan Yan inhaled softly, "We should stay here in this ce."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I can''t cope with Xue Qianxue. She is currently too strong for me to handle." Yuan Ji said bitterly.

    Shangguan Yan saw that he was not angry with her so she continued shyly, "Xue Qianxue may not be so petty toe knocking into our doors yet."

    Yuan Ji was perplexed, "Why so? These cultivators are always so petty. The strong will always bully the weak."

    Shangguan Yan replied, "Because this will only prove her guilt. If she is really guiltless, she won''t be bothering her time with us."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he muttered, "Why didn''t I think of this?"

    Shangguan Yan continued with her soft voice, "I may not know why Pce Mistress doesn''t want to see you anymore but I know that she has left this ce to you. Why don''t you make yourself the new sect leader and be the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect instead?"

    Yuan Ji hesitated and muttered, "This¡­isn''t such a good idea, am I right?"

    "You are the only elder left now and moreover if you really like my sister Chengxi, you can use this opportunity to protect her." Then she averted her eyes shyly before adding. "We can protect her together."

    Yuan Ji muttered, "We can protect her together? Meaning?"

    Shangguan Yan began to flush shyly, "You are such a badass. Surely you know what I mean."

    "No, I don''t." Yuan Ji was growling softly. He really did not know what she meant by that.

    Shangguan Yan inhaled softly before saying shyly, "Do you really want me to say it loud?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Of course." He was scratching his head now. Too many things had happened on this night and his judgment was a little clouded now.

    He was thinking. "I know I can protect Fairy Ye Chengxi once I''ve regained my profound strength but Yan''Er is so weak. How does she protect Chengxi? But at this point, no one knows that I am actually a seventh realm cultivator. It should be Fairy Ye Chengxi protecting us and not the other way round."

    Shangguan Yan looked at him nkly before she sighed softly, "No wonder Pce Mistress doesn''t want to see you until you''ve be a romantic cultivator."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "These two things do not seem to be connected."

    Shangguan Yan hadpletely given up on him as she lowered her nces with great shyness, "You can take my sister as your consort too."

    Yuan Ji had finally realized what she was trying to mean, "We can protect her together."

    He was cursing himself, "Why is it that my brain seems so slowtely? It must be the effect of losing my precious beard. I ought to get my beautiful beard back as soon as possible."

    But he quickly said to her, "We are impossible."<sub> </sub>

    Shangguan Yan could not believe what she was hearing because she could see his eyes were constantly looking lustfully at Chengxi all the time when they were together.

    Actually Yuan Ji''s eyes had lingered on Ye Chengxi longer than he had wanted because half of the time he was having a shback when he was a master to her and not because he really coveted her. But to Shangguan Yan, she had misunderstood. To anyone else, they would also have misunderstood Yuan Ji''s staring to mean that he was interested in her.

    Shangguan Yan asked, "Why is it impossible?"

    But Yuan Ji did not reply to her because he did not want Shangguan Yan to know that he had always regarded Ye Chengxi as only his disciple and nothing else, even though he had to admit that Ye Chengxi was really too stunning to look at nowadays.

    He just shook his head and said quietly, "Alright then. We shall stay here. I think Yan''Er suggestion is good."

    Shangguan Yan was delighted as she nodded shyly.

    But very quickly she was saying shyly, "Brother Yuan Ji¡­my lord¡­shall we?"

    Yuan Ji was also happy when he saw her delighted countenance. At least she was not crying anymore and she was really lovely when she was smiling. "Shall we what?"

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly and her head was bowed lower than ever, "Shall we¡­ consummate¡­our marriage."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji rolled his eyes and he had almost fainted on the spot.

    It was like a thunderbolt had suddenly struck him.

    He hadpletely forgotten about this.

    Now he was quickly thinking how he should reject her, the faster the better.

    It was because he did not mind consummating their marriage if she was really a widow.

    But her chastity was still intact.

    And when her chastity was still intact, he began to regard himself as her old master rather than her lord.

    Although there were no rules in the Deste Celestial Fraternity against a master taking his prot¨¦g¨¦s as consorts and concubines but Yuan Ji had prided himself as a Sword Saint with the highest moral ground. At such, he did not feel good about this.

    "What''s wrong?" Shangguan Yan looked at him nervously and she was really afraid that Yuan Ji would think that she was a loose maiden for suggesting that they consummate their marriage.

    "Nothing. It is just that I am not feeling too well today." Yuan Ji smiled weakly. "I''ve probably lost too much of my profound strengthtely. Shall we talk about this when I''ve regained my profound strength?"

    Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    Yuan Ji had suddenly turned away.

    "Brother Yuan Ji, where are you going?" Shangguan Yan panicky called out after him in confusion. "You''re leaving already?"

    Yuan Ji quickly said before he left the bridal chamber, "I''m going to the meditation room to cultivate."

    Shangguan Yan had burst into tears and she was trembling mncholy, "In the end, he is still looking down on me¡­"

    She did not know that Yuan Ji had heard her and he was leaning outside the room. He was trembling hard.

    "I have never looked down on you. I don''t have the right to do so. I know what you have done for me. But do you know that I am actually the old master that you''ve hated all these years? I am the one that had heaped abuses on you all these years. One day, you may discover who I am and when that dayes, you will never forgive me or yourself because you have given your chastity to the one that you have disliked the most in your entire life."

 Chapter 23 Palace Master Yuan Ji

    Yuan Ji was now the Pce Master Yuan Ji and he had taken over the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Suddenly he found himself taking charge of some three thousand prot¨¦g¨¦s. These prot¨¦g¨¦s were mostly low level cultivators and only a couple of them were fourth realm cultivators.

    Three months had quickly passed.

    And Yuan Ji had regained his profound strength to the fifth cultivation realm.

    Although three months had quickly passed, it was like three days to him.

    It was because he suddenly found himself with three roles; Pce Master (because the former Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing had gone missing), Elder (all the other elders were killed) and top prot¨¦g¨¦ fighter (all the top cultivators were also killed).

    He found himself cursing Xia Jiaqing again, "Why don''t youe back and be the Pce Mistress again. Do you know that you left behind a pile of shit to me?"

    The minute the Emperor Hall Sect had lost most of its top cultivators, the other celestial ns in the surrounding vicinity were sending him challenges after challenges to reim lost honor or territories.

    "I''m in mourning. ording to the fraternityws of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, they have to wait three months to challenge me or my sect. Go and tell them to wait for three months!"

    "What? The three months are almost up?!"

    "...."

    He was forced to seek help from Fairy Ye Chengxi to help him to run the Emperor Hall Sect and had made her an honorable elder of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Because he was also so short of elders, he was forced to ask Shangguan Yan for help too. Although she was a weak cultivator but she was nevertheless still a fourth realm cultivator.

    But the thing that worried him the most was that he had almost run out of excuses why he was not consummating his union with Shangguan Yan.

    Whenever he sees her, he would feel extremely guilty.

    Today he was on the way to the practice tform because Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were giving an instruction there to the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    "I shouldn''t be cultivating all the time. I should at least take a look around my new sect. At least I should show my face once a while." He said to himself.

    All of a sudden he had paused in his tracks and hid himself.

    It was because he had suddenly overheard some prot¨¦g¨¦s exchanging gossips on him and he was frowning.

    "Our new Pce Mistress Shangguan Yan is so personal and enticing. Our Pce Master is so lucky to have her. I can''t imagine having such an enticing beauty like her in bed every day."

    "Our Pce Mistress is an unranked great beauty. Now that she is a Pce Mistress, she may be ranked as the fifth great beauty soon."

    "If that is the case then won''t our Pce Master have two great beauties as his consorts?"

    "Of course! Why do you think our Pce Master invites Fairy Ye Chengxi here to be our honorable elder? Things are not so simple. It is because he can see her every day."

    "But I rarely see Pce Master talking to Fairy Ye Chengxi. In fact, Pce Master is rarely in sight."

    "You''re too young, too simple."

    "You never know what they are doing at night. Why do you think that our Pce Master is always not around during the day?"

    "Why?"

    "Because he haspletely exhausted himself with the two great beauties during the night! Haha!"

    "Listen, this is our personal secret. Don''t go around telling anyone¡­"

    "Actually our Pce Master is quite handsome¡­it is no wonder that even Fairy Ye Chengxi and our previous Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing are all looking at him in a weird manner."

    "Yes, I agree¡­" A female prot¨¦g¨¦ said.

    "Other than the Great Poet Ji Yuan, I don''t think anyone is as great looking as our Pce Master¡­"

    "But it is a pity. The Great Poet Ji Yuan is only handsome when he is beardless¡­"

    "I have heard that the one and only portrait of the beardless Ji Yuan is worth 10,000 high grade spirit stones and is now hanging in the forbidden ground of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Did he hear what he was hearing from these outrageous prot¨¦g¨¦s?

    He resisted the temptation to confront these prot¨¦g¨¦s as he continued quietly to the practice tform while muttering, "I am busy cultivating during the day and night so that I can save all your asses from getting kicked by the other celestial ns. These good-for-nothing prot¨¦g¨¦s only know how to gossip nonstop."

    He was soon at the practice tform but remained out of sight.

    "Hm, Chengxi isn''t here yet?" He thought. "Maybe it is too troublesome for her to travel here every day. I should offer to give her a residence here. This ce has plenty of rooms for her anyway."

    Shangguan Yan had just finished a practice round with the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s that numbered some three hundreds and she was now chatting with them.

    "Pce Mistress, we have heard that you used to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect and you are a junior sister to Sword Saintess Fairy Ye Chengxi. We are curious how you managed to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦? We are all inner prot¨¦g¨¦s here and we hope to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ one day."

    Shangguan Yan was smiling gently at the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Her smiles were like a beautiful breeze that seemed to lift the spirits of all the onlookers and that included Yuan Ji.

    He was a little smitten when he saw her gentle countenance.

    "Howe I never know that she can smile so beautifully?"

    "Because you''ve never make her smile at all." His inner demon countered.

    "I am actually not a good core prot¨¦g¨¦." Shangguan Yan said quietly. "I have to practice twelve hours a day while the others only have to practice three hours a day. I am actually not good with the sword."

    Everyone was suddenly quiet because they could sense her mncholy gaze upon them; it was as though she could express her emotions through her countenance and quiet voice.

    "I''ve actually no time for my cultivation so I try to make it up by only sleeping two hours a day and during meal breaks."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he was suddenly very downcast as he muttered, "Yan''Er, sorry¡­"

    It was because he knew that he had punished her for being so weak in her sword techniques.<sub> </sub>

    "This is a sword sect. We practice our sword together with our cultivation practice. How can you be so useless with your sword? From now onward, you will practice your sword from day to night until I''m happy with you. Don''t forget that you''re a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and not an ordinary prot¨¦g¨¦. How can your swordy be weaker than an ordinary prot¨¦g¨¦?"

    All the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s were suddenly quiet. It was because none of them were willing to practice their swords for twelve hours a day.

    Shangguan Yan smiled bitterly, "After nearly a hundred years, my sword skill is still no better than one-tenth of my sister Chengxi. And I continued to practice twelve hours a day for the past one hundred years even though my old master is no longer around."

    Yuan Ji was stoned when he had heard her. "I am no longer around. Why the hell do you continue to practice so hard for? I can''t see it anyway."

    Actually all the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s were also thinking the same but they did not dare to interrupt Shangguan Yan.

    She continued mncholy, "When my old master took me in as a core prot¨¦g¨¦, I''ve promised him that I will not fail him and I will work hard to meet his expectations. Whether my old master is still around or not, I never fail to practice my sword while I was still in the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly. "When I took you in, you are still a child. A child promise is not worth remembering!" Then he was trembling, "I didn''t know that you are suffering so much while you''re in the Orthodox Sword Sect. Maybeing to the Emperor Hall Sect is a release for you instead¡­."

    Then he added bitterly, "You must have hated your old master so much, am I right?"

    Some of the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s could not resist sighing loudly, "Then Pce Mistress must have hated your old master?"

    "If I were Pce Mistress, I would hate him!"

    "Death to Pce Mistress'' old master¡­"

    Yuan Ji cursed them softly, "These idiots. Why are they cursing me all of a sudden?"

    But he had quickly returned his attention to Shangguan Yan. He already knew her answers. She had told him that she had hoped that he was dead and would nevere back.

    Shangguan Yan voice was trembling softly and there were tears in her eyes, "He is a good master. I am just not worthy to be his core prot¨¦g¨¦. I can''t protect the Orthodox Sword Sect. I don''t want my old master to be back because I can''t bear to let him see how useless I am. I don''t want him to see this good-for-nothing core prot¨¦g¨¦ that he has so painstaking trained to no avail."

    Several of the prot¨¦g¨¦s now had tears down their cheeks when they had heard her.

    She continued woefully, "My old master is not only a Sword Saint, a peak sixth realm golden supremacy, the greatest poet in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the head of the Four Beautiful Bearded Cultivator with the most beautiful long beard in the fraternity and also has the celestial title of the Gentleman of the Sword but he is also the best master in the entire fraternity. Although he has scolded me harshly all the time but I know that he is trying to force me to be better and he has never lifted his finger to hit me, not even once."

    The inner prot¨¦g¨¦s were all trembling as they listened. Many of the female prot¨¦g¨¦s were crying now. It was because they had been caned all too many times while they were receiving instructions from the elders and senior prot¨¦g¨¦s in the past.

    But their new Pce Mistress Shangguan Yan had never caned them and instead she was extremely patience with them. Moreover after each practice round she would chat with them so that everyone could keep up with the practice paces.

    Although Shangguan Yan sword y was much slower than Fairy Ye Chengxi but her pace was enjoyable to many of the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s, especially the slower ones.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi sword y was too fast and it was difficult for her to slow down her natural reflexes. At the same time, she was also a fifth realm golden celestial and a renowned Sword Saintess so naturally even a simple stroke that hade from her, contained unfathomable speed and profound strength that defied the understanding of an ordinary cultivator.

    Yuan Ji was trembling hard and he had to use all his willpower to suppress the tears that were in his heart. "Yan''Er remembers all my titles¡­I have really let her down¡­"

    It took him a while topletely suppress all his emotions before he stepped out of hiding as he coughed on purpose to alert everyone that he was here, "So how is the practice? Is everyone doing well?"

    All the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s were startled by his sudden appearance and quickly greeted him.

    He waved them off as he turned to Shangguan Yan to ask, "Fairy Chengxi isn''t here yet?"

    Shangguan Yan shook her head, "She will be here soon enough."

    Yuan Ji nodded before he said, "Yan''Er, let''s take a little walk over there first while we wait for her to arrive."

    Shangguan Yan nodded as she followed him.

    For some time, they did not talk at all but were both walking awkwardly together.

    Finally Yuan Ji said awkwardly, "Yan''Er, actually¡­" He had suddenly hesitated. It was because he could not tell her that he was his old master. He did not even know why he was suddenly asking her to take a walk with him.

    Actually he wanted to apology to her for his past action but he had suddenly remembered that he was not Ji Yuan the old master anymore but Yuan Ji and this Yuan Ji was now her personal lord.

    Shangguan Yan looked at him quietly, "Actually?"

    He hesitated sheepishly before saying, "Actually I have never look down upon you."

    Shangguan Yan smiled awkwardly, "I know¡­" But her eyes were extremely mncholy. She did not dare to ask him why then he had not taken her if so?

    But Yuan Ji could tell from her countenance what she was actually thinking of.

    He heaved a heavy sigh before he said solemnly, "Yan''Er, I want to take you now."

    Shangguan Yan was startled, "Now? Here?"

    "Yes now. There is no one around." Yuan Ji said as he pulled her into the bushes.

    Shangguan Yan was gasping softly, "In this ce?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "I can''t wait anymore. Yan''Er, are you willing?"

    Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly before she said with flustered voice, "Your Yan''Er is most willing. I''ve been waiting for this day¡­"

    It was all that he needed to hear.

    Yuan Ji did not wait for her to say more as he quickly stripped her to nothingness, pulling her robe off, her dress, lingerie and finally her panties off her.

    As he touched her, he was amazed that her body was silky smooth. This was a divine body in one in a million.

    In front of him now, was a most beautiful maiden who was pure and close to his heart. It did not take him very long to start kissing her passionately.

    "Yan''Er, this is going to hurt for your first time. I am going in now. Don''t be afraid."

    Shangguan Yan was already gasping softly with pleasures and soon Yuan Ji had entered into her. This caused her to grip her fingernails tightly into his firm body.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was asking, "Your fingernails, did you apply the scents that Xia Jiaqing had left for you?" It was because he had suddenly realized that before he had entered into her, her fingernails were already sinking it into him and he had only just noticed.

    Shangguan Yan was suddenly gasping softly, "Out of habit, I am always applying it¡­"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before saying sheepishly, "Never mind, it is already toote. Do you have any antidote for it?"

    Shangguan Yan muttered softly, "I have another scent that can remove it¡­but it is not with me now¡­"

    "Tell meter which part is real and which part is delusion¡­" Yuan Ji was now on fire and he was impatient to talk. Very soon, he was passionately banging her like a wild beast.

 Chapter 24 What Have I Done?

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was now walking around as she called out, "Sister. Yan''Er, where are you?"

    The inner prot¨¦g¨¦s had told her that Pce Mistress Shangguan Yan was taking a walk here with Pce Master.

    "Where is she? Weird?" As she walked, she quickly swept her divine sense.

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan had appeared in a flustered manner and she was carrying Yuan Ji. "Sister, help me. Pce Master Yuan Ji has fainted."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was startled as she quickly inspected Yuan Ji; he appeared to be stoned and his eyes were staring nkly but he was also smiling and drooling.

    "What happens to him? I''ve never seen anything like this?" Fairy Ye Chengxi was gasping softly.

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "I really don''t know what happens. He had suddenly fainted. You can help me to take him to the hall first?"

    She had pointed to a small resting hall nearby.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi panicky nodded.

    As she helped Yuan Ji, she suddenly saw that he was wearing his robe in the reverse side. "This Pce Master is like a little child. He can''t even be bothered to wear his robe properly."

    Shangguan Yan said with a flustered voice, "Men are all like this. They don''t care."

    Actually it was Shangguan Yan who had helped Yuan Ji to dress up hastily when she had suddenly heard her sister''s voice calling out for her. It was because Yuan Ji was now in a trance and he could not dress himself on his own.

    The scent that she had identally used on him actually worked extremely fast.

    When the two maidens had moved Yuan Ji to the small resting hall, Shangguan Yan panicky said. "I''ve an ointment that is from Pce Mistress Xia. It is really effective for faints. I will go get it now. Sister, please don''t touch or move him until I''m back."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded quietly as she cast an anxious look at Yuan Ji. "I will wait for your return."

    Shangguan Yan panicky rushed out of the hall as she said softly, "I will be back very soon."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was now staring at Yuan Ji as she said silently, "What has actually happened? My old master never has any history of fainting spells. He is always healthy. Is it because of his failed breakthrough?"

    In her mind, her old master had actually failed in his cultivation realm breakthrough and had even suffered a stunning blow to his cultivation realm, causing him to lose his golden body. That was why he had refused to acknowledge her when he had first re-appeared.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was soon heaving a mncholy sigh. "Your Chengxi is here. Even if you have lost your profound strength, I don''t mind. I will be with you¡­"

    All of a sudden she had noticed that the pant that was inside Yuan Ji''s robe was wet and she was suddenly gasping. This wet patch was expanding rapidly in front of her.

    She covered her mouth with shock, "Master¡­"

    Yuan Ji was now in a delirium. He had totally no idea what was happening except that he was now having a fun time.

    Yan''Er had suddenly disappeared from the scene and now she had been reced by Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    "Chengxi? Why are you here in my bedroom?" Yuan Ji was shocked.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had quietly bended her knees in front of him and said quietly, "Your Chengxi is here to serve you."

    It was only then that he noticed that Chengxi was only dressed in her lingeries.

    Yuan Ji immediately said, "Chengxi, this won''t do. We can''t do this thing¡­"

    "Yes, we can." Fairy Ye Chengxi was quietly looking pitifully at him. "Master, Chengxi has always like you. Why are you so cruel to me?"

    "I am cruel to Chengxi?" Yuan Ji stammered.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded shyly as she leaned toward him while still on her knees. "Can you take Chengxi please?"

    "Please¡­"

    Yuan Ji was now staring at the face of a heavenly fairy that could cause men to sin. His willpower began to falter and he was suddenly taking off his robe¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When Shangguan Yan had returned to the small resting hall, Fairy Ye Chengxi was looking quite flustered.

    Shangguan Yan quickly took a bottle for Yuan Ji to sniff.

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan had noticed that Yuan Ji was not wearing his robe in the reverse anymore. "This¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi knew that Shangguan Yan had noticed it and she quickly said with hot flushes, "It won''t be good for a Pce Master to be wearing his robe the opposite way. Therefore I''ve helped him."

    Shangguan Yan slowly nodded as she averted her eyes from her sister

    But both Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi was suddenly ying dumb. Some things were best not to say out.

    Before long, Yuan Ji had recovered from his trance. "What happens?"

    He was suddenly startled when he saw Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were both looking at him with a weird expression.

    He had suddenly remembered what he had done to Shangguan Yan.

    <o>,m "This¡­did I get caught in the act by Chengxi?" He began to smile bitterly.</o>

    Shangguan Yan was too shy to exin and she was looking nervously at her sister Fairy Ye Chengxi. How much did she know? Did she guess?<sub> </sub>

    But Fairy Ye Chengxi merely said quietly, "You have fainted earlier so we have brought you here. Are you feeling much better now?"

    Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "So I have fainted? So that''s what happens. Look at me. I must have been cultivating too hard."

    When he had said that, he was looking extremely sheepish.

    He was looking a little perplexed. He thought that he was doing it with Shangguan Yan but howe he was dreaming that he was doing it with Fairy Ye Chengxi?

    All of a sudden there were angry noises from outside the hall.

    In a short moment, an elderly senior prot¨¦g¨¦ had walked into the hall with four prot¨¦g¨¦s and they were carrying a tray.

    This elderly senior prot¨¦g¨¦ was Old Liu Xuan and he wasmenting loudly, "Pce Master, please take a look at this! This is so outrageous!"

    Old Liu Xuan was also the sect''sw enforcer elder. Every few days he would run to Yuan Ji toin about theck of rules andws in the sect.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin and asked curiously, "What is it?"

    He walked to the tray, followed by Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    As they approached, Old Liu Xuan sighed heavily as he removed the cloth that was on the tray; on the tray were a body lingerie and a panties.

    Shangguan Yan was gasping softly. She quickly averted her eyes shyly because she had recognized her own lingerie that she had left behind earlier in a hurry¡­

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi was gasping softly as she stole a nce at Shangguan Yan.

    Yuan Ji was staring nking at the tray and he was smiling awkwardly, "Erm, so¡­"

    Old Liu Xuan raised his fists in fury, "Pce Master, to think that we have an adulterous pair that dares to do such a thing inside the inner pces of the Emperor Hall Sect. They must have thought that everyone is dead! We must find out who are the adulterous pair is!"

    Yuan Ji replied sheepishly, "Surely we can close one eye this round?"

    "No Pce Master! We must enforce the rule ofw strictly and deliver the sect punishments to the offenders. They are doing it in the inner pce. This is total disrespect to you and a p to your face!"

    Yuan Ji was smiling awkwardly as he said silently, "Actually my face is quite thick."

    But he said with a weak smile, "So what does Old Liu Xuan proposes? The culprits must have long fled the scene."

    Old Liu Xuanughed as he pointed at the lingeries, "Did Pce Master sees that it is still wet? Our sect has a profound treasure that can trace the culprit by sampling the blood."

    Shangguan Yan was now really flustered. She really did not want anyone to know that these lingeries belong to her.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Are you going to check us as well?"

    Old Liu Xuanughed, "Of course not. Our Pce Master, Pce Mistress and Fairy Ye Chengxi are above guilt." Then heughed even louder, "If Pce Master wants to do this thing, there are plenty of ces for you to do it discreetly. Is there a need to do it in the wild?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Yuan Ji replied weakly, "Go then and find out who are the culprits."

    Old Liu Xuan was delighted as he shouted with his hoarse voice to the other four prot¨¦g¨¦s. "Come follow me. We are going to check all the three thousand prot¨¦g¨¦s today! The honor of our Pce Master and the Emperor Hall Sect must be protected."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said quietly, "I take my leave first. The inner prot¨¦g¨¦s are still waiting for me to give them the instructions."

    With that she had hastily left the hall.

    Yuan Ji muttered curiously, "Weird. Why is Fairy Chengxi acting so weirdly?"

    With hot flushes, Shangguan Yan said almost incoherently. "She knows the lingeries belong to me¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled, "She knows? How did she know?"

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "I happen to wear the one that she gave me in the past."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    As he staggered back in shock, all of a sudden something fell from his robe to the floor; it was a body lingerie.

    Shangguan Yan was in shock as she looked at Yuan Ji, "This belongs to my sister. How did you get it?"

    Yuan Ji stared at the body lingerie that was on the ground with a perplexed look.

    "I don''t remember¡­"

    He was actually telling the truth.

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan remembered her sister flustered look when she had entered the hall and that even Yuan Ji''s robe had been adjusted by her.

    She was gasping in shock as she stared at Yuan Ji, "Don''t tell me that¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ???

    But Yuan Ji attention was now in the direction where Fairy Ye Chengxi had gone. He was thinking, "Does it mean that she isn''t wearing any now¡­"

    Yuan Ji was now pacing up and down nervously outside one of the many inner halls of the Emperor Hall Sect. It was because Shangguan Yuan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were now talking inside.

    He was dying to know what they were talking about.

    Did he or did not touch Fairy Ye Chengxi during his trance?

    That was the only question that was in his mind.

    Hepletely could not exin why he had Fairy Ye Chengxi''s lingerie inside his robe.

    Away from him, standing outside the outer hall were Old Liu Xuan and his fourw enforcer prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Old Liu Xuan was also pacing up and down nervously.

    It was because Old Man Xuan had failed to find the culprits that had dared to defile the sanctity of the Emperor Hall Sect with their dirty acts.

    "s!" Old Liu Xuanmented loudly. "How do I tell Pce Master that I''ve failed him?"

    He had tested the blood of all three thousands prot¨¦g¨¦s in the Emperor Hall Sect, including his fourw enforcer prot¨¦g¨¦s but had yielded no results.

    Earlier, he was even making a big ruckus about finding the culprits and dealing them the sect''s justice.

    But now he was at aplete loss how to tell Pce Master.

    He did not have the chance to tell Pce Master yet because the Pce Master was now pacing inside the inner hall. The inner hall was strictly forbidden to men other than the Pce Master of course.

    Suddenly one of the prot¨¦g¨¦s said nervously. "Master Liu, actually you don''t have to worry too much. I don''t know if I should say this or not."

    Old Liu Xuan growled, "If you got shit to say then quickly say it loud. Why beat around the bush?"

    "I am afraid that master will punish me." He replied even more nervously.

    "As long as it is not disrespectful to Pce Master and the Emperor Hall Sect, you can say whatever you want." Old Liu Xuan barked.

    The same prot¨¦g¨¦ lowered his head, "It may be a little disrespectful."

    Old Liu Xuan frowned, "Alright, alright. Quickly say it. You are acting just like a maiden."

    "Erm, I won''t get punish?"

    Old Liu Xuan looked at him unhappily, "That will depend if what you will be saying is helpful or not."

    After a short hesitation, the same prot¨¦g¨¦ looked at his fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s before saying in a timid voice, afraid that Old Liu Xuan heavy fists maye upon him anytime. "Actually, your humble prot¨¦g¨¦ here thinks that it may not be necessary for us to pursue this matter so aggressively or be afraid that the wrath of our Pce Master maye down upon us."

    Old Liu Xuan: ???

    The same prot¨¦g¨¦ exined timidly, "We have already checked the blood of almost all the prot¨¦g¨¦s except for just a few. And these few¡­erm¡­" As he said it, he took a quick nce in the direction of the inner hall.

    Old Liu Xuan was suddenly gasping, "We did not check Pce Master, Pce Mistress and Fairy Ye yet¡­"

    The same prot¨¦g¨¦ nodded nervously, "Look at these lingeries. It is so exquisite. One look and we can almost guess who it belongs to."

    Immediately Old Liu Xuan and the other three prot¨¦g¨¦s were all gasping loudly.

    "Shhh! Not so loud!" Old Liu Xuan suddenly said.

    But his loud voice soon asked hoarsely, "Pce Mistress or Fairy Ye?"

    The same prot¨¦g¨¦ muttered weakly, "I think it belongs to Fairy Ye."

    "Why so?" Old Liu Xuan asked quickly. He was dying to know the truth. Although he was thews enforcer elder but hecked the detective mind. "Quick, tell me! Stop beating around the bush!"

    The same prot¨¦g¨¦ heaved a soft sign of relief that Old Liu Xuan was not scolding him so he quickly said, "Our Pce Master can do the deed openly inside any of the inner hall with no questions asked. But he had to do it outside. There is no doubt who this maiden is, right?"

    Old Liu Xuan was gasping loudly, "This! Why didn''t I think of this?" Then he wasughing out loud. "Then it is perfectly alright. Come to think of this, this is no wonder why Pce Master suggests that we close an eye to this? Haha. It''s no wonder why I think Fairy Ye Chengxi was looking so flustered earlier. So this is the reason. Haha."

    Another prot¨¦g¨¦ said in a low voice, "I don''t know if I should say this too. I hope that Master Liu will not punish me."

    Old Liu Xuan frowned, "If you also got any shit to say, quickly say it. I won''t punish you if you are not disrespectful to Pce Master or the Emperor Hall Sect."

    This prot¨¦g¨¦ had a flushed face as he smiled, "Actually I think that the lingeries belong to Fairy Ye Chengxi. I am very sure about it."

    "Oh?" Old Liu Xuan and the other three prot¨¦g¨¦s said at the same time as they looked curiously at him.

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ with the flushed face as he smiled lecherously, "I have noticed today that Fairy Ye Chengxi seems to be missing her body lingerie. I''ve been observing her figure for a long time now. I can''t be wrong about it."

    Old Liu Xuan and the other three prot¨¦g¨¦s were now gasping out loud, "So the lingeries belong to Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­"

    All of a sudden Old Liu Xuan said to the prot¨¦g¨¦ with the flushed face, "You will be given twenty heavy strokes of the rod and I will be personally administrating it to youter."

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ with the flushed face began to stammer, "Master Liu, I thought you say that you will not punish me for saying out my thoughts?"

    Old Liu Xuan frowned, "I didn''t punish you for saying out your thoughts. I am punishing you for peeking and looking at Fairy Ye Chengxi so lecherously that even I did not notice that she isn''t wearing her lingerie. Have you forgotten that Fairy Ye Chengxi is our honorable elder? She is even ranked higher than me! For this disrespect, I am punishing you!"

    This was true;

    Although Old Liu Xuan was thew enforcer elder but he was not a true ''elder'' of the Emperor Hall Sect. He was only an elder that was in charge of thew enforcer hall. Therefore even an honorable elder position was higher than him.

    Then Old Liu Xuan wasughing jovially, "Who knows if she may even be our second pce mistress soon."

    Then his eyes were rolling lecherous with the three other prot¨¦g¨¦s who were all drooling with him, "So this belongs to Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­I can sniff her fragrance already¡­she''s one of the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "Ahem!" He proimed loudly. "Since we are unable to find the culprits, we shall then report to our Pce Master as such. Case close. I am keeping these evidences for future use. I mean future¡­research use."

    The prot¨¦g¨¦s: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Inside the inner hall, Shangguan Yan was looking shyly at her sister Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    "My dear Sister." Shangguan Yan muttered. "May your sister know what really happen earlier?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was sitting quietly next to Shangguan Yan and her countenance was as flustered as the blooming spring flowers.

    She shyly averted her nces and said softly, "Nothing has happened."

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "It is all my fault sister. I didn''t know this will happen. I''ve forgotten to warn you not to look into his eyes."

    Yuan Ji was in a delusion due to the special scent that was identally used on him. Thest maiden to look into his eyes would be the target of his fantasies.

    So when Shangguan Yan had left the hall earlier to get the antidote, Fairy Ye Chengxi had reced Shangguan Yan as his next target of delusion as she had looked into his nked eyes.

    That was the reason why Yuan Ji was suddenly fantasizing about Fairy Ye Chengxi instead of Shangguan Yan.

    But usually the victim of the fantasies was safe as long as they kept themselves out of arm reach. That was the reason why Shangguan Yan had warned her sister not to touch Yuan Ji while she was away.<sub> </sub>

    But when she had returned, something was not right and the only person that knew the truth was Fairy Ye Chengxi but she was not sharing.

    "My good sister, are you really not sharing." Shangguan Yan was looking at Fairy Ye Chengxi with pleading eyes. "Not after what he has done to you?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi grew even more flustered before she started to sob in Shangguan Yan''s embrace, "I¡­really don''t know this will happen¡­"

    Shangguan Yan muttered softly, "Tell me sister. I''m sure Brother Yuan Ji will take responsible for his actions. What did he do to you?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi shook her head but at the gentleforting of her sister, she slowly said. "I¡­was¡­just checking if he''s really alright¡­and I''m trying to feel his pulse¡­"

    She purposely omitted the fact that she saw Yuan Ji''s wet patch under his robe that she was so startled that her knees gave away.

    "Then he started to remove his robe and¡­force his lewd act on me¡­" Fairy Ye Chengxi was trembling as she buried her head deep in her sister''s bosoms.

    "Lewd act?" Shangguan Yan was perplexed. "What lewd act?"

    With great shyness, Fairy Ye Chengxi whispered almost incoherently in Shangguan Yan''s ears.

    Shangguan Yan was so shocked that she gasped out loud, "He did that?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi averted her eyes with great shyness as she nodded.

    "It is indeed very lewd¡­" Shangguan Yan was stammering as she covered her mouth with her hands.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi lowered her nces, "He forced me into a kneeling position and¡­" She could not continue for it was too lewd for her to say so.

    At that time, her knees had given away in front of Yuan Ji and suddenly she could see his thing in front of her face. As she gasped, Yuan Ji had moved to silence her with his lewd act.

    "Good sister, are you willing to be with my Brother Yuan Ji?" Shangguan Yan suddenly asked her.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded shyly and she dared not to look into the eyes of her sister.

    "What about our old master then? You''re not waiting for him anymore?" Shangguan Yan asked curiously. She knew that her sister was always pinning for her unrequited love for her old master.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi lied as she said with great shyness, "I''ve decided not to wait for him anymore." She knew that Yuan Ji was Ji Yuan her old master. But she did not dare to tell her sister. "Yuan Ji is a good man. He had helped me on so many asions and killed those that I do not have the courage to do so. I feel safe with him around."

    Shangguan Yan nodded and she was also flushing, "Yes, he''s good man. Without him, we will still be living in the darkness of the four evil elders."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was suddenly mncholy, "But I don''t think he will be willing to take me as his consort."

    Shangguan Yan was perplexed, "My sister Chengxi is one of the greatest beauty in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Is he blind or is he a true priest? I don''t believe."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi did not dare to tell her sister that she had already offered herself to Yuan Ji previously to see his reaction and the result was disappointing. She had cried for many days afterward because she feared that she had ruined her good image in front of him.

    "Actually sister, he has asked me to check with you if anything has happened between the two of you. If so, he is willing to bear responsible and you can state your condition to him. He says that as long as it is not against his code of honor, he will definitely try to make up to you." Shangguan Yan said gently.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was disappointed when she had heard her sister. It was because he did not mention that he was willing to take her as his consort. In the end, her hopes were crushed.

    Shangguan Yan lowered her voice to say, "Sister, I can tell that you are interested in him and I can tell that he is always looking at you in a weird manner. Maybe he is too shy to say so. Maybe we can exaggerate the ounts?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was startled, "Exaggerate the ounts?"

    Shangguan Yan nodded quietly, "He doesn''t know anything. People that are afflicted with my scent cannot differentiate what is real or delusion, what has happened or what has not happened."

    Then she averted her eyes from her sister, "What if my sister has lost your chastity to him in this instance? It doesn''t matter if it is true or not. As long as he doesn''t touch you before you wed to him, he will not know. Even if he does know, it will already be toote. If he does touch you, either way he has to wed you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped before she nodded shyly.

    With that, Shangguan Yan had stepped out of the inner hall and Yuan Ji was waiting for her nervously.

    "Well, did my Yan''Er finds out anything?"

    Shangguan Yan nodded, "My sister has lost her chastity to you."

    Yuan Ji gasped with shock as he took three steps back. He could not believe what he had done. He had defiled his most precious disciple Chengxi. But if he had not done the deed, how did he have her lingerie inside his robe then?

    With a sad and heavy heart, he asked with a heavy sigh. "Did she say whatpensation she wants?" No matter what she wished for, he would try his best to fulfill it.

    "There is only one. You have to take her in as your consort." Shangguan Yan said quietly.

    Yuan Ji took another three steps back in shock, "She says that?! But I can''t. I mean I can''t take her as my consort¡­"

    Shangguan Yan interrupted gently, "Why not? She is the renowned Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi."

    Yuan Ji stammered with great righteousness, "The others will think that our Emperor Hall Sect is trying to swallow up the Orthodox Sword Sect. We will be a bully in the eyes of the celestial fraternity!"

    "Do you really care about the reputation of the Emperor Hall Sect?" Shangguan Yan asked curiously.

    "Well, this ce is left behind by Xia Jiaqing. I ought to take care of it for her. Haha. Moreover, you can''t force someone to love another. Haha."

    Shangguan Yan quietly said, "My sister says if you don''t take her as your consort, she will kill herself this very night."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    This was like the ultimate weapon that could nuke all his endless other excuses¡­

    Yuan Ji began to sigh heavily. If one day his Chengxi were to discover that he was actually his old master, she would be extremely miserable and shocked. He did not want to ruin her future but he had already ruined it. Of all days and ces, why did he have to do it in the most unlikely of all ces and had even chosen such a bad timing?

    Now he felt like he was cleaning up his own mess for his three minutes of flirt.

    "So the answer is yes?" Shangguan Yan asked him with a gentle smile.

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily before he nodded.

    "Good!" Shangguan Yan was smiling all of a sudden. "I''ll go and tell my sister the good news."

    "Yan''Er, wait." Yuan Ji suddenly said. "There''s something I want to tell you while I was pacing here earlier."

    Shangguan Yan curiously asked. "Brother Yuan Ji, yes?"

    Yuan Ji returned a weak smile at her, "You know earlier today, I was really touched by you. I had heard your talks with the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Shangguan Yan gasped softly as she looked at him shyly.

    "Although I''m not as good as your old master but I will promise to be good toward you." Yuan Ji said firmly.

    Shangguan Yan chuckled softly, "You are already way better than my old master. Don''t believe what I''ve said earlier about my old master. In front of the inner prot¨¦g¨¦s, I can''t really say anything that is disrespectful to my old master. My old master is really a badass and I don''t like him at all."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, his pupils had turned white as he took another three steps back. But this time, there were no more steps for him to take because he had rolled down a flight of a hundred step tform stair and had fainted immediately with great shock.

    He had finally consummated his unison with Shangguan Yan today because he was so touched by her and that he had thought that she had admired his old self like a god. Now the reality struck him like a great thunderbolt.

    "Big Brother Yuan Ji! My lord!" Shangguan Yan gasped in shock.

 Chapter 26 Second Time In The Bridal Chamber

    A mere few days had passed;

    Yuan Ji was now sitting in a bridal chamber just like three months ago except that this time the bride was the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi, one of the four greatest beauties in the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    She was also known as Sword Saintess Ye Chengxi, prot¨¦g¨¦ sect leader of the Orthodox Sect and the senior sister to Shangguan Yan.

    But to Yuan Ji, she was his Chengxi, his core prot¨¦g¨¦ that he had appointed to take over the Orthodox Sword Sect while he was away.

    Today everyone in the Emperor Hall Sect was in a jovial mood except for one unhappy person.

    And the one unhappy person was actually Yuan Ji himself.

    It was because he was now ''forced'' to take Fairy Ye Chengxi as his consort after all his excuses were nuked by her threat to end her life.

    And it was not only Fairy Ye Chengxi who was now giving him the headache.

    He had thought that Shangguan Yan had his old self in her heart and he had consummated his union with her because he was touched by her. But it turned out that it was not what he was expecting.

    In fact, it was impossible for him to back off from them because he had already taken them.

    "Heavens, why are you torturing me with this twist of fate?!" Yuan Ji cried out silently.

    "Chengxi will never forgive me if she knows that I''m her old master¡­and I will lose all my cumted respect in her eyes¡­I cannot allow this to happen¡­"

    All of a sudden his thoughts were interrupted by Fairy Ye Chengxi who was saying shyly to him, "Brother Yuan Ji, why aren''t you taking my bridal veil off?"

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly now. To take off her bridal veil would mean they had to consummate their unison next¡­

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily, "Chengxi, I know that you have no choice but to marry me. You can still back off now. I don''t me you¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had suddenly removed her bridal veil and was staring at him with her heavenly face, "I don''t regret. Do you?"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes and replied sheepishly, "Of course I don''t. I''m only concern about your future happiness."

    "My future happiness? My future happiness is at this moment and is now in your hands." She replied quietly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Weird. You don''t seem to be so happy today." Fairy Ye Chengxi bit her lips shyly.

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "Of course I am happy. Can''t you see that I''m really happy today?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi lowered her nces, "I really can''t tell. Why don''t you prove it to me?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was thinking weakly, "Is she trying to seduce me?"

    "Then what are you waiting for, Brother Yuan Ji?" Fairy Ye Chengxi looked away shyly. "And what are you thinking now?"

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly. What was he thinking now?

    He was thinking, "I cannot be Yuan Ji forever. One of these days, I will storm Xue Qianxue''s celestial n and get the remedy to regrow my beautiful beard. Then I will be Ji Yuan again, a saint of great renown in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and my beautiful beard will once again see the light of the day."

    "Do you not like me?" Fairy Ye Chengxi had suddenly turned her heavenly gaze on Yuan Ji, causing him to tremble lightly.

    Drawn by her heavenly looks and mncholy voice, Yuan Ji found himself muttering. "I like¡­"

    He was suddenly startled as he cursed himself silently. "What are you saying? This like is not the same as that like. Chengxi is your precious disciple and not your woman¡­"

    "Then take me today." Fairy Ye Chengxi looked at him with pleading eyes.

    Yuan Ji found himself holding onto her shoulders with trembling fingers as he cursed himself silently, "But she is already your woman. As a man, you got to take responsibility. She is now asking you to take her. How can you be so heartless as to reject her?"

    Gathering all his willpower, Yuan Ji rejected his inner demons and sighed softly. "Chengxi, I''ve many powerful enemies. It is not that I don''t wish to take you. It is just that I''m a lowly cultivator and not worthy of your love. I may die anytime one day."

    Inner Demon: 0

    Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart: 1

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously, "Who are your enemies? I can help."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. "My enemies are more powerful than the four elders of the Emperor Hall Sect. You won''t be able to help."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled gently, "If you are no longer around, I will not want to live too."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Don''t say that. You are a golden celestial now and a half-step immortal. Your lifespan is still long. With some luck, you may even be a seventh realm great saintess in the future and take thest leap and ascended as a true immortal." Yuan Ji said weakly.

    "You must always remember that failures are a norm and the tribtions are needed for your final ascension. No one is going to have it any easier than you do. Therefore you must hold on to your life and struggle to live. You mustn''t talk about ending your life so recklessly."

    There were tears in Fairy Ye Chengxi''s eyes now as she listened.

    "Chengxi, what''s wrong? Why are you crying?" Yuan Ji was startled.<sub> </sub>

    "My old master used to tell me the same but he is no longer around now." Fairy Ye Chengxi said with wet tears on her cheeks.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    When Fairy Ye Chengxi was woeful, it was like the heavens were in tears and it would cause the hearts of men to grow soft.

    And Yuan Ji was no exception to her charms.

    He was suddenly stammering, "Chengxi, don''t cry anymore."

    But Fairy Ye Chengxi continued to weep silently and her tears were dripping down her cheeks in a woeful expression as she looked at Yuan Ji.

    "What must I do to make you stop crying?" Yuan Ji was panicking now.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said woefully, "Today is supposed to be the happiest day of my life. I''m supposed to be the luckiest maiden and happiest maiden today. But it seems that this is not the case."

    She did not tell him that she had already known that Yuan Ji was her old master and it was actually her old master that she had always loved in her heart. Because that rtionship was a barrier that she did not want to shatter lest her old master would expel her from the sect.

    But now, she had another opportunity because her old master had pretended to be another person and did not know that she already knew who he was. And today was supposed to be the happiest day of her life because she could finally be with the man that she had always wanted to be with.

    She knew that her old master was probably struggling with his inner demons now and was purposely trying to turn her away without hurting her.

    So she said, "If you can ept my Sister Yan''Er, why can''t you ept me?"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly startled as he muttered, "If I can ept Yan''Er, why can''t I ept Chengxi?"

    His inner demons were suddenly struggling inside him;

    "She is right."

    "Yan''Er is also my disciple¡­"

    "If I can ept Yan''Er, why can''t I ept Chengxi?"

    "I actually have already taken Chengxi¡­"

    "So what am I waiting for now?"

    Yuan Ji did not realize that Fairy Ye Chengxi had identally let slip of the fact that she knew what he was hesitating about.

    If he had thought further about it then he would find out that she had another meaning in her words.

    He was left staring at her heavenly countenance, not knowing what to do.

    Of course Fairy Ye Chengxi was not going to make the first move because she was too shy for it. But she said quietly, "I know what you like. We can do that again if you want do. Chengxi will not resist. Chengxi is willing and happy to do it every day with my lord."

    Yuan Ji was not aplete idiot. He knew that she was referring to that day.

    And that day, he was having a lot of erotic delusions. So which one was she talking about?

    Inner Demon: 1

    Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart: 0

    His inner demon had won over him and he had suddenly throwing himself at Fairy Ye Chengxi. This was the only way that he could find out.

    -

    -

    -

    A short whileter, Yuan Ji had finally realized the truth much to his stunned horror.

    "Chengxi, you''re a pure maiden?! Why did you lie to me?!"

    "Does it matter now?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked innocently. Then she was smiling with great shyness, "Brother Yuan Ji, do you want to stop halfway now?"

    "No¡­" Yuan Ji replied sheepishly.

    "Then¡­let''s continue¡­" Fairy Ye Chengxi shyly said.

    She was now flustered and like a beautiful blooming flower and her fragrance was irresistible.

    Yuan Ji cursed himself as he looked at the lovely body of Fairy Ye Chengxi. Like Shangguan Yan, her body was silky smooth and was a one in a million.

    Inner Demon: 1

    Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart: 0

    "Tonight, I will be Yuan Ji and not Ji Yuan¡­please forgives me Chengxi¡­"

 Chapter 27 The Big Confrontation (1)

    Yuan Ji was now in the Green Verdant Great Hall of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    This Green Verdant Great Hall was actually an audience hall that could amodate thousands and it was usually used to host the various cultivators from the other celestial ns or used as an assembly hall.

    And now right, hundreds of cultivators from more than twenty celestial ns had gathered in this hall.

    He was not exactly amodating them but he was actually being ''confronted'' by them and they numbered almost nearly a thousand.

    On his side was Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Old Liu Xiu and three hundreds of his prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    These cultivators hade to settle their ''scores'' with the Emperor Hall Sect, either by talks or by force. It was because the three month grace period was now up.

    Yuan Ji took a sheepish look as he stole a nce at Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    At the same time Fairy Ye Chengxi was shyly looking at him and when she saw that he was looking at her, she quickly averted her eyes in the other way.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was not only the honorable elder of the Emperor Hall Sect but she was also now the Second Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect; he had taken her as his consort just a few days earlier.

    Toward Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, he felt disgusted, shame and guilt at the same time toward them for not telling them who he really was. But that onlysted like three minutes and for the next three days and nights he was always in their bed chambers until he was suddenly confronted by the leaders of the some twenty celestial ns and that was why he was here now.

    Right now the leaders of the some twenty celestial ns were all having a staring game at Yuan Ji and his prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    They were expecting the morale of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect to be low but what they saw instead was the fierce determination and the spirited look of hundreds of prot¨¦g¨¦s that were staring back at them.

    They were silently thinking, "What is going on?"

    "Isn''t their morale supposed to be horrible?"

    "They have no strong experts except for Fairy Ye Chengxi to fight us now¡­"

    "This new Pce Master Yuan Ji is merely only a fourth realm expert. He can''t possibly be our match."

    The fierce determination and spirited look of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect did not just end with this hall. Along the way here, the celestial leaders of the some twenty celestial ns had already noticed theck of fear and even a kind of solidarity to stand with the fate of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    One of the celestial leaders had even tried to recruit the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect to his side but instead he was met with scorn.

    Even threats of extinction did not seem to work against even themon prot¨¦g¨¦s!

    What was going on?

    Although the Emperor Hall Sect had suffered a severe setback three months ago when most of its experts had perished overnight but its prot¨¦g¨¦s had never felt more spirited and happier than when Pce Master Yuan Ji was in charge. Even though the Emperor Hall Sect was now a paper tiger and was terribly weak now but the morale had never been higher.

    It was because three months ago, all the scums of the Emperor Hall Sect had all been mysteriously killed.

    However, not a single prot¨¦g¨¦ actually had the desire to seek vendetta for them.

    The only remorse in their hearts was that their previous Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing was now missing.

    Many of the prot¨¦g¨¦s were actuallymenting that they could no longer see Xia Jiaqing around. After all, Xia Jiaqing was also regarded as one of the four great beauties in the celestial fraternity and she was extremely enticing to look at. Although she was often unkind to the four elders and their cronies, she had never been unkind to themon prot¨¦g¨¦s who had regarded her as their goddess.

    In a celestial n that had no scums left, the morale was naturally high.

    Moreover they had two newly pce mistresses that were popr with them as well.

    Therefore the remaining prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect had decided to perish or live along with their new Pce Master Yuan Ji against the confronting celestial ns today!

    To perish or live with the Emperor hall Sect!

    This was their secret oath that they had all made today!

    Yuan Ji, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi naturally did not know of the secret oath of their prot¨¦g¨¦s; it was because they were too busy with their ''cultivation research'' in the bed chamber and they were having their ''multiple breakthroughs''.

    Therefore they did not emerge until all the confronting celestial ns had alle knocking together to demand ''justice''.

    Now Yuan Ji was asking the confronting celestial ns, "So what do you want?"

    All the leaders of the some twenty celestial ns were now all struggling to shout their demands at the same time.

    "Pce Master Yuan Ji! The Emperor Hall Sect has upied the western region of the Five Heavens Peak for so long. Do you think that you ought to make reparations to the celestial ns in that region now?"

    "We havee to settle a score with you. Last year, the Emperor Hall Sect had injured several of our prot¨¦g¨¦s!"

    "It is time for the Emperor Hall Sect to give up some of its territories¡­"

    "If you do not cede the Northern Heavens Peak to us, we will not hesitate to attack the Emperor Hall Sect¡­"

    "Disband your Emperor Sect Hall and surrender your cultivation resources to us¡­"

    "We want Fairy Ye Chengxi toe with us¡­Shangguan Yan too, if you do not mind¡­"

    Yuan Ji was frowning unhappily. All the demands ended up with in return, they would allow him to live so long as he was willing to surrender the profound treasures, the cultivation resources or the territories of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    He did not even bother to listen more because he knew that today they were like vultures that were now feeding upon the carcass of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    He was cursing silently, "Jiajia, are you ying a prank on me?"

    But he could not resist a furious shout, "At first I am willing to listen to your demands. But some of your demands are just so ridiculous."

    Then he pointed his fingers at them, "Some of the things happened donkey years ago and now you are looking for me to settle a score? Why don''t you look for the Emperor Sect Hall earlier to settle this score?"

    He did not need the ability to read their minds to know that they were all saying one thing in their heads. "It is because the Emperor Hall Sect is weak now and the Pce Master is only a fourth realm cultivator."

    Next he shouted angrily at another group of leaders, "Your demands are even more ridiculous. You want my female prot¨¦g¨¦s and even my Second Pce Mistress Ye Chengxi to go with you?! And you there, even want my First Pce Mistress Shangguan Yan?!"

    As his eyes wandered from the confronting leaders to leaders, he was suddenly surprised to spot the banners of the Mystic Eye Sect among the confronting celestial ns.

    He growled furiously, "I thought that the Mystic Eye Sect is a neutral celestial n that only sells information? Why are you here?"

    Indeed the Mystic Eye Sect was a neutral celestial n that had setup a celestial guild in all the major hubs of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Their main business was to sell all kinds of information and in the past Yuan Ji had even brought Xue Qianxue''s information from them.

    A fat man had humbly stepped out andughed, "Indeed, indeed. I am Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect."

    Yuan Ji gave him a perplexed look and a light growl, "And why are you here for? Did the Emperor Hall Sect owe your sect something?"

    He could not believe that even the Mystic Eye Sect was here to fish for troubles.

    Elder Suiughed aloud as he humbly said, "We''re only here to be spectator and nothing else."

    "Oh?" Yuan Ji replied curiously.

    "Do you agree that sometimes information is only reliable if it is witnessed firsthand?" Elder Sui asked him casually.

    Yuan Ji nodded and replied, "So?"

    Elder Suiughed, "So we want to know if the Emperor Sect Hall will be wiped out today and in whose hands the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi will fall into today. Some of my clients will be interested to know this information at firsthand."

    Yuan Ji asked with a perplexed look, "They should be asking for my whereabouts after today."

    "I''m afraid that no one is interested in your information." Elder Sui chuckled and he was being followed by theughers of several hundred cultivators that were behind him.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He muttered unhappily, "Is my information so worthless?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi could not resist a soft chuckle when she had overheard him. Her ears were really sharp!

    Then she took a sheepish look around her and lowered her nces with a flustered look, "Sorry." She apologized to her side quickly.<sub> </sub>

    Shangguan Yan was looking at Fairy Ye Chengxi and her beautiful eyes appeared to beughing as she trembled lightly. It was because she was trying her best not tough at Yuan Ji.

    A celestial leader had stepped forward and was waving his sword. "Stop the crap. Don''t me us for ransacking the Emperor Hall Sect!"

    Yuan Ji asked, "You are?"

    The celestial leaderughed, "Elder Kong Fu of the Mighty Sword Pavilion! Middle-tier Fourth Realm Cultivator!"

    "What are your grievances again?" Yuan Ji asked. He hadpletely forgotten.

    "The Northern Five Heaven Peaks..."

    Yuan Ji was growling, "I ask for your grievances and you reply me with your demands. I guess that we can only settle our grievances with our swords now."

    Elder Kong Fu wasughing. "This is my very intention too."

    All the cultivators behind him were allughing. It was because the Mighty Sword Pavilion was renowned for its sword arts. Even a fifth realm golden celestial may struggle under the attack of its superior sword art.

    <o>,m Fairy Ye Chengxi quickly stepped forward, "Brother Yuan Ji, please allow me¡­"</o>

    But Yuan Ji interrupted her with a gentle smile, "How can I bear to let my beloved Chengxi take the challenge in my ce?"

    He turned to Old Liu Xuan and said quietly, "My sword."

    Old Liu Xuan quickly stepped forward with a heaven-step precious sword in both hands for Yuan Ji to take.

    Elder Kong Fuughed, "What is the use of a heaven-step precious sword? I only need the use of a half-step precious sword and I can send you to cry in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi and to show her that she has followed the wrong man. You are a piece of dung that covert a fairy flower."

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes and his pupils almost turned white. It was not because he disagreed with him but he had suddenly thought it may sound true after all!

    How could he deserve the love of his precious disciple Fairy Ye Chengxi?

    He had lied to her about his identity. He really felt unworthy of her and yet he could not resist her at all.

    Therefore he could only sigh and said, "Indeed I am a dung."

    When he had said that, all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect were panicky shouting. "No, Pce Master, you''re not!"

    At the same time, the cultivators from the opposing side were allughing out loud. "Yes, he is indeed!"

    Elder Kong Fuughed jovially. "Let me take care of this piece of a dung then!"

    Yuan Ji had unsheathed the heaven-step precious sword with his left hand, "Please give me your instructions then!"

    Elder Kong Fuughed as he moved to attack Yuan Ji with his sword, "I will definitely give you plenty of my instructions!"

    The instant that he had swung his sword, his profound martial power began to cause a strong ripple that caused everyone to take a step or two back!

    "Elder Kong Fu is so impressive¡­"

    "This is the profound sword art of the Mighty Sword Pavilion! Today, we will have a real eye-opener¡­"

    "This Pce Master Yuan Ji is dead for sure¡­"

    "The Emperor Hall Sect is really blind for having a trash as a sect leader¡­"

    "Pity Fairy Ye Chengxi. She is going to be a widow today¡­"

    Just as everyone was singing their praises to Elder Kong Fu, Yuan Ji had swung the sword that was in his left hand and had sent Elder Kong Fu to fly all the way back to the entrance of the hall.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Did they see what they were seeing?!

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi was gasping.

    Many of the cultivators were blinking their eyes nkly; they did not even see anything and Elder Kong Fu was sent flying backward¡­

    The prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect were staring nking at their Pce Master¡­

    Yuan Ji was frowning, "So weak? So this is the sword art of the Mighty Sword Pavilion? Haha."

    "I am sect leader of the Profound Sword Sect, Yu Changhai. Please give me your instructions!" A peaked fourth realm cultivator had suddenly announced with a great shout.

    "This is the sect leader of the Profound Sword Sect! The profound sword art of the Profound Sword Sect cannot be estimated¡­"

    But barely had the praises ended, Yu Changhai was sent flying backward with a crashing hard knock against the iron pir of the hall.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yuan Ji swept his eyes around him, "So who else is there that wants to challenge me?"

    Another cultivator had stepped forward and shouted. "I''m Elder Xu Guoqi from the Spirit Weapons n!"

    "This Elder Xu Guoqi is really formidable. He specializes in sword energy attacks. This time that Yuan Ji is a goner for sure!"

    Elder Guoqi raised his sword forward and imbued his sword with his profound energies. In the next instant, he had sent a quick burst of sword energy as a projectile toward Yuan Ji!

    Sword energy attacks are only usable by a rare few fourth realm cultivators. Roughly only 1 in 10 of the cultivators will be lucky enough to have the ability to convert their profound energy to sword energy.

    Even a seventh realm cultivator may not necessary be a sword energy practitioner. Therefore sword energy practitioners are greatly feared for their ability to make a long range energy attack. Moreover the prating power of a sword energy attack is legendary and it can easily cut down the armors and profound aura of the opposition.

    Yuan Ji raised his sword in an upward to downward swing before a wave of sword energy had suddenly burst from his sword like a ground dragon, tearing through the ground tiles in a straight line and immediately caused Elder Guoqi to fly backward and sustaining serious injuries.

    As for Elder Guoqi''s sword energy, it was just a puny burst of sword energy. The instant that Yuan Ji had unleashed his sword energy, it was quickly dissipated into nothingness.

    Everyone was stunned!

    "This is a Sword Energy Wave!"

    A Sword Energy Wave was more powerful than any sword energy bursts and only a few formidable sword energy practitioners were able to use it. Any sword energy practitioner that could use one was naturally a genius and could be regarded as a powerful sword cultivator.

    "This¡­this is impossible right? He is only a fourth realm cultivator?!"

    Everyone was stunned.

    Everyone had suddenly realized that the Emperor Hall Sect was not as weak as they had supposed.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was smiling secretly, "Has my old master regained his profound strength already? I should have realized that he is only toying with them when he is only using his left hand. He is three times as fast when he is using his right hand. Do they know that my old master is actually a Sword Saint and they are only courting their deaths for challenging him to a sword duel."

    Yuan Ji frowned, "Are there more challengers?"

    Naturally there were more challengers because he could see that there were five golden celestials that were standing at the back.

    And now these five golden celestials were now looking at Yuan Ji with interest.

    They did not act earlier because they were not interested to fight any cultivators that were below the fifth realm level.

    The only strong opponent in their eyes were Fairy Ye Chengxi, who was a fifth realm golden celestial.

    But now, they were now being forced to act or they would have wasted their time ining here!

    And now Yuan Ji was patiently waiting for them to introduce themselves.

 Chapter 28 The Big Confrontation (2)

    These five golden celestials were all the elders or leaders of the various celestial ns that hade to confront the Emperor Hall Sect.

    And now they were all staring coldly at Yuan Ji.

    "Celestial Tie Quan from Golden Lotus Sect!"

    "Celestial Huo Tianyun from the East Heaven Horizon Sect!"

    "Celestial Mei Jianwang from the Five Venoms n!"

    "Supremacy Guo Taiming from the White Blossom Peak!"

    "Supremacy Chen Kun from the Flying Crane Pavilion!"

    Yuan Ji knew that these five golden celestials were not going to be handled easily. It was because one of the them was even an expert in using poisons and he was Celestial Mei Jianwang from the Five Venoms n.

    Moreover, there were also two sixth realm supremacies as well.

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were looking a little fearful for him.

    Yuan Ji had now regained his profound strength to the fifth realm. He could still manage with the three fifth realm golden celestials but it would be a different matter with the other two sixth realm supremacies.

    It was because the other two sixth realm supremacies had the stronger profound strength and they had all attained the divine state of the spirit level. They were a totally different nut to crack.

    And he did not have unlimited profound strength to fight them one by one either.

    Right now, he was using his sword on his slower left hand. He could always switch his sword to his faster right hand to gain a surprise advantage but it would not be too effective against the two sixth realm supremacies. He may have his own trump card but he could not rule out that they may have their own trump cards too.

    Also, the very reason why he was now using his left hand was because he did not want to reveal his sword skills to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. He had fallen in love with them now and he dreaded the day that they would know his true identity.

    For now, he would be Yuan Ji and not Ji Yuan the Sword Saint.

    Unknown to him, Fairy Ye Chengxi knew of his left hand sword skills a long time ago. She was always particr attentive to her old master. There were a few times that she had secretly observed that he was practicing a new sword art with his left hand and he had only practiced it when no one was around.

    Fairy Chengxi knew that he had been secretly training his left hand to be his new secret trump card for a long time.

    Her old master had always told her, "Even if I am your old master, you can''t share with me all your secret trump cards. Nowadays you can''t even trust your own master or personal prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Suddenly Yuan Ji and all five of the golden celestials were now staring at one another.

    "What are they doing?"

    "Why are they just standing there and doing nothing?"

    "They are staring at each other?"

    "What do you juniors know?"

    "Can you see their sword intentions that are between them? They are actually fighting in their spirit forms now! This is the way the top experts fight!"

    "But I really do not see anything at all¡­"

    "That is because your cultivation level is too low¡­"

    "I really don''t see anything..."

    "Same here..."

    "I feel that that they are just staring at each other..."

    After staring at each other with their big and small eyes for quite some time, finally Yuan Ji was the first to break the silence as he smiled coldly to the five golden celestials, "Good! You are all here. So which of you will fight me first?"

    The five celestials were now all looking awkwardly at one another.

    This was a very good question.

    Supremacy Guo Taiming said, "I am a golden supremacy. If I make a move first then the heroes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity may mock at me for bullying a cultivation junior."

    Supremacy Chen Kun stroked his beard, "I totally agree with Supremacy Guo here. Why don''t we let the rest make a move first?"

    Celestial Mei Jianwang smiled, "My specialty is poisons. This is the way I always fight. I should not be using any poisons on a cultivation junior, am I right?"

    Celestial Huo Tianyun were now looking at Celestial Tie Quan, "Out of respect for your Golden Lotus Sect, I should at least let you make the first move?"

    Celestial Tie Quanughed heartily, "Oh no, I insist on letting Brother Tianyun have the first move instead."

    "No, after you."

    Yuan Ji frowned, "Arguing is just a waste of time. Why don''t the five of you select the strongest one among you to have a go at me first? In this way, the heroes of the fraternity will not mock at you for bullying a junior like me."

    "That is a good idea." Celestial Huo Tianyun, Celestial Mei Jianwang and Celestial Tie Quan were now looking at the two golden supremacies.

    Supremacy Chen Kun and Supremacy Guo Taiming were now looking awkwardly at each other, "This¡­"

    All of a sudden Supremacy Chen Kun stared at Yuan Ji and said, "It is impossible that you are just a fourth realm cultivator. Your profound strength is clearly above them earlier. Why don''t you state your true cultivation realm to us instead?"

    Even Supremacy Guo Taiming was nodding.

    Yuan Ji knew that he would not be able to hide his true profound strength from them as they had already observed his strength earlier. They were after all sixth realm cultivators that could use their divine sense to gauge the profound strength of their opponents'' attacks.

    With a great shout, Yuan Ji dispelled the mystic profound art that he had used to suppress his cultivation realm and revealed his golden eyes once more, startling everyone.

    "Pce Master Yuan Ji is actually a golden celestial?!"

    "He is actually a golden celestial?!"

    All of a sudden the defeated opponents earlier were allughing, "See! I got defeated because only because he had hidden his cultivation strength. This is not disgraceful at all."

    The three earlier defeated opponents had finally found a face saving measure now and werergely relieved.

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were startled.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was perplexed, "I''ve thought that old master has suffered a cultivation reversal? He is able to regain his golden celestial body?"

    Shangguan Yan was really delighted as she clenched her hands close to her bosoms as she said silently, "He is actually a golden celestial...I am not wrong in him¡­"

    Yuan Ji had never lost his golden celestial body. He was only a seventh realm saint that had lost his profound strength temporary. His breakthrough was actually a great sess. But because he was eager to exit his cultivation retreat so that he could fulfill his promise with Xia Jiajia on their hundred year waiting pledge, he did not wait for his profound strength to recover first and had ended his cultivation retreat early.

    However his breakthrough was not totally without any hitch; he had lost his beautiful beard in the oue.

    All five golden celestials were now thinking, "Luckily we did not challenge him first."

    The reason why they were all hesitating was because they were golden celestials and had a lofty status in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. All their little victories and losses would be recorded in the celestial history. They could not afford to lose their faces and reputations!

    Moreover they were also aware that Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect was here today and he would tell the entire fraternity about it if they happen to lose their faces. Then they would be a greatughing stock in the eyes of everyone.

    Supremacy Chen Kunughed, "So you are also a golden celestial. Then may we know what is your cultivation realm now is now? Celestial or Supremacy?"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "Maybe I''m a Celestial. Maybe I''m a Supremacy or maybe I am actually a Saint. Why don''t you find it out yourself?"<sub> </sub>

    The five golden celestials were now all thinking, "He has got to be a mere Celestial. This is actually a bluff. If he is a Supremacy or a Saint, he would have disy his profound aura to us by now."

    The two Supremacies were now thinking, "We can win..."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had taken out his earth-step divine sword from his spatial ring as he whistled. "Since this is a battle between golden celestials and I don''t want to lose at all, I ought to use my divine sword to meet the challengers."

    All of a sudden the five golden celestials had turned ashen.

    Was he kidding them?!

    Now then he had taken out his divine sword?!

    This was not any precious sword but a divine sword and moreover this was an earth-step divine sword capable of felling any golden celestials!

    None of the five golden celestials presented or the one thousand confronting celestials presented could actually afford to own one divine sword. As a matter of fact, even if all their cultivation resources were all added together, they still could not afford to purchase one-hundredth of an earth-step divine sword.

    "Ops!" Yuan Ji suddenly said as he identally cut his forearm with his divine sword and his blood began to drip on the ground. "Look at me, I am so careless and silly. How can I fight anyone in my condition?"

    But no one wasughing at Yuan Ji or dared tough at him and they were all gasping.

    It was because Yuan Ji''s wounds were rapidly regenerating in front of them.

    When a cultivator had be a golden celestial, they would gain a golden body that can quickly regenerate their wounds and even lost organs. At this point, they will be regarded as half-step immortals. But of course, to regenerate a lost organ may not be as easy as it sound and may require several months or years depending on the cultivation realm of the golden celestial.

    The same logic followed for light wounds like cuts.

    Now all five golden celestials were staring in disbelief at Yuan Ji. It was because Yuan Ji''s regeneration ability was clearly above them. Did it mean that he was actually a higher level cultivator than anyone of them?

    Even if he was not a higher level cultivator than them but the divine sword that was in his hand would give him a clear advantage in his attacks.

    They all knew that he was a sword energy practitioner from his disy earlier. When sword energies were used with a divine sword, the result was usually devastating. One to one, they may all lose to him.

    But if they attacked him five to one, Fairy Ye Chengxi may stepped in and the fight would be a Five versus Two.

    Although they still had an advantage but they would lose all their faces¡­

    Suddenly Celestial Tie Quan wasughing, "Actually I am only here to befriend Pce Master and nothing else. I am not like the rest."

    Yuan Jiughed, "You are Celestial Tie Qian? I remember you, my friend!"

    "Haha. Yes, my friend." Celestial Tie Quanughed as he retreated behind.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Celestial Mei Jianwang gulped as he suddenly said, "Actually I am here to witness the heroic presence of the new Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect. Now that I''ve met you, I am really happy."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "You are Celestial Mei Jianwang? You look equally as heroic as well!"

    "Haha, really?" Celestial Mei Jianwangughed as he retreated behind.

    Celestial Huo Tianyun was the next tough aloud, "I am actually here to check if Pce Master Yuan Ji needs any help or advice on the affairs of the Five Heavens Peak."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Naturally I will need Celestial Huo help in the future."

    "Really? Haha." Celestial Huo Tianyun retreated to the back as he shouted. "Feel to ask me anytime. Anytime!"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Supremacy Chen Kun was smiling to Yuan Ji, "Pce Master, you are injured? Do you need my help? My celestial n has some good healing remedies for you to apply on your wounds. Actually I am just curious to see what is going on around here and has no intention to fight today. Do I look like an aggressor to you? I''m just a friendly cultivator that wants peace."

    Yuan Ji patted him on his shoulder, "I''m also a cultivator that wants peace. Supremacy Chen Kun is indeed kind to offer me your healing remedy. I am so touched by your gestures!"

    Supremacy Chen Kunughed as he quickly stepped behind, "Then I will give you three big chests of my celestial n''s best healing remedy."

    "So much? s Supremacy Chen Kun, why are you being so generous to me?" Yuan Jiughed heartily.

    "Erm¡­" Supremacy Guo Taiming stammered. He was now the only golden celestial left to oppose Pce Master Yuan Ji. "Actually¡­"

    "You are here to befriend me too, am I right?" Yuan Ji asked as he gave Supremacy Guo Taiming a light kick.

    "Yes, yes. That''s right. Haha." Supremacy Guo Taiming.

    Supremacy Guo Taiming had immediately turned ashen as he quietly whispered, "You are Ji Yuan? You are back already?" It was because only Ji Yuan would use to kick him in this manner. This was their secret code.

    "Shhh! Not so loud, my friend. I will exin to youter. I don''t want anyone else to know." Yuan Ji whispered to him.

    Guo Taiming and Ji Yuan were actually the best of friends in the past.

    Yuan Ji had now turned to say solemnly to everyone, "We are all celestial ns that are from the Five Heavens Peak. Maybe in the past the Emperor Hall Sect has been bullying you and taking away your interests. But from now onward, I will see to it that your interests will be protected. As for the profound treasures that the Emperor Hall Sect had taken away from you in the past, I will return them all to you."

    Guo Taiming immediately shouted loudly to everyone, "What are you all waiting for now? Quickly give thanks to Pce Master Yuan!"

    When he had said that, all the opposing cultivators were suddenly all shouting. "Pce Master Yuan is wise!"

    "We are all willing to follow Pce Master Yuan and the Emperor Hall Sect!"

    The prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect were all suddenly stunned by the sudden turnaround as they stared nkly at one another.

    They had all taken the Perish or Live with the Emperor Hall Sect oath together and they did not even have the chance to see any action.

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were now looking at Yuan Ji with idolcy. With him around, perhaps things would only get better now¡­

    All of a sudden a prot¨¦g¨¦ was running panicky into the hall and he was shouting, "Bad news Pce Master! Bad news!"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he asked, "What bad news?"

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ inhaled heavily before he stammered out panicky, "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce is here¡­to kick our doors!"

    When everyone heard that it was the Hundred Flower Divine Pce that hade knocking, everyone had turned ashen immediately.

    Even Yuan Ji had taken two steps back in shock. "When did we make an enemy out of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?!"

    The Hundred Flower Divine Pce is the most mysterious celestial n in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity, either orthodox or unorthodox. But when they dide knocking, it is never good news and it will often result in the total destruction of that celestial n.

    In the past there were the eight most powerful patriarch celestial ns instead of the current seven. Because the eighth patriarch celestial n had offended the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, it waspletely annihted from the celestial fraternity. Overnight ten thousands high level cultivators were all killed or forced to flee.

    It is a mysterious celestial power that can destroy any celestial n in a blink of an eye and no one really knows where the true whereabouts of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is.

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ stammered, "There are two saints from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­we are unable to stop them from storming inside¡­"

    Yuan Ji had turned really pale and Shangguan Yan had fainted in the arms of Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said with woeful eyes, "Brother Yuan Ji, your Chengxi is willing to share woe and weal with you. We will fight the Hundred Flower Divine Pce together."

    Yuan Ji began tough bitterly, "We have so many celestial ns in this hall today. Why do we need to fear from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    But the cultivators from the twenty odd celestial ns were all looking at the floor in shame. None of them had the courage to fight the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

 Chapter 29 The Big Confrontation (3)

    Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect was sighing immediately as he muttered, "I didn''te here to die. Why am I so unlucky?"

    Many of the cultivators were all sighing heavily.

    Yuan Ji heaved a quiet sigh as he revived Shangguan Yan,forting her. "It is alright. We''ll be fine. Maybe the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is here for a friendly visit."

    When he had said that, none of the cultivators actually believed in that.

    In fact many of the cultivators were now writing theirst wills.

    Even Yuan Ji did not believe in it. Just as he had thought that everything was now going in his way now, the mother of crisis had actuallye knocking.

    Shangguan Yan nodded lightly.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was holding onto her sister hand and was looking at her warmly. "Brother Yuan Ji will protect us."

    Yuan Ji forced himself tough out jovially, "Come! Let''s go outside the hall and see what the Hundred Flower Divine Pce wants! At most, we will fight them with everything we got. It is only two saints and not ten saints. Hahaha."

    With that he took the lead to be the first one to confront the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and he was immediately followed by Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi and all the other cultivators.

    In no time they were all at the heaven gate of the Emperor Hall Sect and Yuan Ji''s prot¨¦g¨¦s began to say panicky to him. "Pce Master¡­we can''t stop them from barging in¡­

    Yuan Ji said to them, "It is alright."

    He turned his attention to the intruders.

    Under the cool breeze were two elderly cultivators and behind them was arge beautiful blue sedan that was escorted by ten maidens.

    Yuan Ji immediately greeted them, "I am Pce Master Yuan Ji. How do I address our honored guests?"

    The elderly cultivator on the left stroked his white beard before saying, "Great Saint Fu Wushuang. First Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    The elderly cultivator on the right lifted his chin and said, "Great Saint Wei Yidao. Second Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    When Yuan Ji heard that they were great saints instead of saints, he almost dropped his jaws on the ground while the cultivators behind him were all gasping with great shock and many were now taking several steps backward.

    Great Saints are upper seventh realm sacred saints and this tier is the hardest tier of the seventh realm level to breakthrough. It is almost like a standalone tier.

    In order to ovee from the middle tier sacred saint level to the upper tier sacred saint level, the saint must first ovee a lightning tribtion first. Only if they can survive the life and death tribtion of the lightning tribtion will they be able to ovee thisst barrier to be a Great Saint.

    But it will not be easy. Failure to do so will mean death instantly.

    And there are three types of lightning tribtion; the three-stage silver lightning tribtion, the six-stage golden lightning tribtion and the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion.

    The three ¨Cstage silver lightning is the mostmonly encountered but it is equally as deadly, killing a majority of the saints that are attempting it.

    The more powerful a cultivator is, the more powerful the lightning tribtion will be.

    There are actually very few great saints in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and every single of them can wipe out a celestial n like the Emperor Hall Sect with ease and moreover there are two of them today!

    The difference between a seventh realm saint and a seventh realm great saint is like heaven and earth that it can be considered like a new realm level entirely.

    Immediately all the cultivators that were behind Yuan Ji were all greeting them;

    "Our respects to the two elders¡­"

    "We have long admired the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    "We''re all ttered to be in your presence¡­"

    All kinds of ttering and humble greetings were suddenly flying behind him.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly to himself, "These cultivators are all so spineless. Are they allowing the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to trample upon their pride? We are cultivators, the proud sons and daughters of the heavens."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were smiling bitterly at the sudden change of attitude with the cultivators that had just pledged their loyalty to the Emperor Hall Sect. It looked like they could change their loyalty at a moment notice.

    This was reality. The strong would always oppress the weak and the weak would rally behind the banner of the strong!

    Yuan Ji saw the looks of disgust that were in the eyes of his two consorts and he decided to keep his mouth shut. It was because he had actually wanted to tter the two elders himself but the other cultivators had seized the opportunity ahead of him and that was why he was cursing them for being spineless.

    Yuan Ji was now smiling bitterly. "So what do you want?"

    First Elder Fu Wushuang smiled coldly, "The Emperor Hall Sect has taken something that is from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and we want it back now."

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes nkly, "Erm, what is it?"

    "The Blue Divine Flower of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce." First Elder Fu Wushuang replied coldly.

    Yuan Ji had a bitter smile as he answered, "Is this a mistake? The Emperor Hall Sect will never take anything that is from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. This, I am very sure."

    Second Elder Wei Yidaoughed coldly, "Mistake? I don''t think so. We can sense the profound signature of our Blue Divine Flower in this ce."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I will dly give you back if you can find it."

    All of a sudden Second Elder Wei Yidao had sped past Yuan Ji and the other cultivators and he had headed into the mountain pces of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    This speed that was disyed by Second Elder Wei Yidao was too insane and everyone was stunned. "This is the profound strength of a great saint¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly to himself, "That old man sure is agile."

    Even before the hearts of the cultivators had calmed down, Second Elder Wei Yidao had suddenly sped back and in his hand was a small pot of a beautiful blue flower. There was no doubt that this was the Blue Divine Flower that they were seeking.

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes as he whispered weakly to Old Liu Xuan, "The four elders are really too outrageous. Of all the celestial ns, why did they have to take something from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce? Now we''re all going to be killed because of this matter."

    Old Liu Xuan replied weakly, "Actually it is our previous Pce Mistress Jia. She said she had found it lying on the roadside and had taken it back."

    Yuan Ji: ..

    "Did she really say that? This is themest thing that I''ve ever heard." Yuan Ji was now smiling bitterly.

    Shangguan Yan was gasping when she saw the Blue Divine Flower and she quietly whispered to him, "Brother Yuan Ji, I saw Pce Mistress extracting the scent of that flower for¡­" She did not dare to say it loud and showed her fingernails to Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji was now cursing loudly in his mind, "Xia Jiajia! You are a bimbo! No, a big bimbo! No, a super bimbo for stealing from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. You have really got me into a fine fix this time."

    First Elder Fu Wushuang smiled coldly at Yuan Ji, "So you got nothing more to say right?"

    Yuan Ji shook his head bitterly. He really got nothing more to say now. The legacy of Xia Jiajia had just jinxed him to his uing death.

    First Elder Fu Wushuang hummed coldly, "No one has ever dares to take anything from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. You''re the first and you should pay. The entire Emperor Hall Sect should pay. Maybe even the one hundred celestial ns from the Five Heavens Peaks should pay too."

    When he had said that, everyone had turned ashen.

    Yuan Ji knew that they would all have to pay with their lives. The justice of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was death to all the offenders, no matter how small or big was the offence.

    Moreover Yuan Ji could tell that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had valued this Blue Divine Flower highly because two great saints were being sent to retrieve it.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji kept quiet. Although it was all Xia Jiajia''s fault fornding him into this, he would not betray her because in his heart, she was already his woman.

    He felt a little pitiful that today his two beloved consorts would have to perish along with him.

    All of a sudden a young and lovely maiden from the back had traversed instantly in front of them in a blink of an eye, startling everyone with her speed of movement.

    Even Yuan Ji was startled.

    It was because her speed clearly marked her as a seventh realm saintess!

    The lovely maiden giggled softly as she said to her two elders, "Our old master, the Divine Pce Master says that on ount of the honesty of Pce Master Yuan, he is willing to give him a chance."

    Yuan Ji was suddenly smiling, "Really? I''ve a chance? Then I must thank the Divine Pce Master personally then." But he was suddenly rmed. It was because their Divine Pce Master was actually here. Was there a secret with this Blue Divine Flower?

    He stole a nce at the other nine maidens at the back and was quite startled to suddenly notice that they all had golden eyes. The celestial strength of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was startling and it was no wonder why it was greatly feared in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    But at the same time he was quite disgusted by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and their old master. It was because there was a long standing rumor in the celestial fraternity that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce practiced dual cultivation and they had the practice of using young maidens to be their yin melting cauldrons.

    The fact that their elders and old master were this old confirmed the rumors in his heart. They must be using these ten maidens for their dual cultivation in order to prolong their lifespan.

    The lovely maiden was now looking at Yuan Ji as she giggled, "This Pce Master Yuan is really handsome. He is a rare beauty."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Did he just hear this lovely maiden calling him a rare beauty?

    He was totally rendered speechless by her.

    The lovely maiden smiled at him before saying, "As long as you are willing to ept a personal duel from my old master then he will be gracious enough to spare the lives of everyone here."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    This was the impossible, right?

    He replied weakly, "What is the cultivation realm of your Divine Pce Master then?"

    "Great Saint! You''re in luck!" The lovely maiden giggled. "You got to fight with a great saint. This is the greatest aplishment of your life. You also got to fight with my Divine Pce Master which is the greatest honor of your life. The entire Deste Celestial Fraternity will be singing your praises for a long time."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I''ll rather that I fight you instead." He muttered weakly.

    "This won''t do at all!" The lovely maiden giggled. "I am the weakest among my sisters. Moreover I''m only a personal attendant to my old master. Surely you''re not thinking of picking the weakest to be your opponent? Won''t you be aughing stock and won''t it be beneath your status?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yuan Ji and all the others were all gasping softly in disbelief. Did she just say that she was the weakest and she was only a personal attendant?!

    The lovely maiden giggled softly, "Why are all of you looking at me like this? If my old master wants us to sleep with him, it is our honor. There is nothing shameful about being a personal attendant to my old master."

    Yuan Ji was smiling weakly.

    Actually they were all gasping with shock because of the ten saintesses and three great saints that they were facing today.

    Yuan Ji cursed himself why did he have to make a joke earlier about facing two saints and not ten saints. Now he was indeed facing ten saints.

    "So Pce Master Yuan will be d to ept the honor challenge?" The lovely maiden giggled. Without waiting for Yuan Ji to reply her, she added with a yful smile. "Of course Pce Master Yuan can choose to decline the honor duel. Our old master isn''t someone that likes to force anyone to ept his challenge."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Really? That''s good¡­"

    "We just have to ughter everyone here then. You must know that it is our usual practice." The lovely maiden nodded her head a she took a lovely look at him.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He quickly did a fourteen million and six hundred and five calctions how he was going to win against a great saint and there was zero chance for him to win.

    "Pce Master Yuan, you must take this honor challenge for us¡­"

    "That''s right¡­"

    "Better for you to die alone than we apany you¡­"

    Even Supremacy Guo Taiming was whispering to him, "Brother Ji Yuan, I can only give you my spiritual support."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He sighed heavily as he looked at Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "Please take good care of yourself. Today I will be handing over the position of sect leader to Chengxi. Please be strong and live well."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were both tearful as they took his arms, saying woefully together. "If Brother Yuan Ji our lord is to die, we will follow after you as well!"

    Yuan Ji rebuked them sternly, "Do you know how many lifetimes of cultivation karma that you have to cumte to be a cultivator? Don''t talk about ending your life because of me. In this life, I am quite contended already¡­"

    Then he sighed silently, "Maybe not. I still don''t know if Jiajia is alive or dead yet. I really want to see her for the veryst time to apologize to her."

    All of a sudden a second lovely maiden from the back had traversed instantly in front of Yuan Ji and she was saying nonchntly, "Our old master the Divine Pce Master says that on ount of your fearless guts, he will give you six months to prepare your funeral and to say your farewells."

    Then she raised her fingers and several profound energy projectiles had flown into Yuan Ji, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi before dissipating harmlessly. "I have ced my profound signatures on you. Don''t ever think of removing my mark. With your present cultivation level, you can''t remove a saintess'' mark. And don''t ever think of running away or we will ughter everyone in the Five Heavens Peak."

    "The duel will be held at the Lofty World End Peak." Then she added with a wry smile. "A befitting end for such a dashing beauty like you."

    Yuan Ji was not offended by her for calling him a beauty.

    Instead he was delighted. It was because he had six months now to regain his profound strength to the seventh realm level. Then he would have a fighting chance.

    And he got six months to find Xia Jiajia.

    If she had really fallen into Xue Qianxue''s hand then he would rescue her.

    If not, he felt that he still owe her an important apology.

    Although he may curse her for being a bimbo all the time, he was actually just venting it off and he was never upset with her. It was because he knew that she had been quietly waiting for him for a hundred years.

 Chapter 30 I Need Information!

    Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect was now alone with Yuan Ji who had requested a personal audience with him after the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had left.

    And he was now grinning broadly.

    It was because he was still alive after the encounter with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Not only alive but he would be a rich elder soon!

    That was because any reliable information from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was worth thousands of spirit stones and there were many clients that would be willing to pay for the inside working of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce; after all, the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was one of the three most mysterious and untouchable celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Today he had seen the two elders of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Their names, how they looked like and even their cultivation level were worth tons of spirit stones!

    It was a pity that he had not seen what their old master the Divine Pce Master looked like or he would be several times richer and maybe even the next sect leader position of the Mystic Eye Sect would be his next for getting this valuable information.

    He was already thinking of selling the information of the Divine Pce Master in this manner; the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce which his prot¨¦g¨¦s called their ''old master'' was always surrounded by ten beautiful saintesses. It was impossible to get near to him¡­

    Spirit Stones!

    Spirit Stones! Spirit Stones!

    Spirit Stones! Spirit Stones! Spirit Stones!

    The tons of spirit stones were now raining like rain drops in Elder Sui''s eyes now and he was all smiles now.

    When Yuan Ji saw his expression, he was frowning. "I know that the Mystic Eye Sect isn''t from the Five Heavens Peaks but do you have to goad like this in front of me?"

    Elder Sui was unable to wipe the smiles that were on him as he chuckled, "It is always our good principle to put on a happy face in front of our clients." He quickly put forth an excuse.

    Then he quickly said, "I''m sure that Pce Master Yuan wants to buy some information from me?"

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly.

    "You want some information about the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?" Elder Sui asked as heughed.

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes, "I think I''ve seen enough of the strength of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce already."

    "Oh? Haha." Elder Suiughed sheepishly and he was cursing Yuan Ji silently. "Then what do you want?"

    Yuan Ji took a look at him before he asked, "Are you cursing me in your heart?"

    "Of course not!" Elder Suiughed, "We will never curse our clients."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am only teasing you to lighten the mood. You see, I am a little nervous after what had happened."

    Elder Suiughed, "Don''t worry about that. I perfectly understand it." But he was cursing silently again. "Damn you. You will soon be a dead man. Hurry and tell me what you want and give me all your spirit stones for my information."

    Yuan Ji said with a heavy sigh, "I want to know some information about Xue Qianxue."

    Elder Sui was delighted, "If you want to know if she is attached or have any suitors, that will be 100 spirit stones." He was silently cursing Yuan Ji, "He will soon be a dead man and he is asking about Xue Qianxue? He is such a lecherous cultivator."

    Yuan Ji was frowning unhappily, "I''ve thought that that information is 10 spirit stones a hundred years ago?"

    Elder Suiughed, "That is exactly what you have said. That is a hundred years ago. Now the numbers of her suitors have increased and thepetition to get rid of one another have also intensified."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Is that so? Luckily I am not interested in this expensive information. Haha."

    Elder Sui: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    "Then what do you want?!" Elder Sui was screaming and cursing Yuan Ji furiously in his heart now. He was now in a hurry to get back to his sect now to record the information about the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Who knows if the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would suddenly change its mind and decided to kill everyone here? This sort of thing frequently happened in the past. Until the information was sealed in the sect, then he would be able to rest on hisurels. And of course his contribution points would also be flying up to the ceiling in no time!

    "Erm, I want to know if there is any feud between Xue Qianxue and the Orthodox Sword Sect?" Yuan Ji asked. He prayed that the answer would be a no.

    Elder Sui replied unhappily, "This information is worth 10 silver. You can have it free of charge. Consider it my gift for Pce Master Yuan."

    Yuan Jiughed, "So cheap? Well, thank you. But why aren''t you smiling like you were earlier?"

    Elder Sui forced himself to smile delightfully, "I am smiling."

    Then he said, "There is still an outstanding head bounty that is ced by her Celestial Orthodox Sect for Ji Yuan. This bounty currently stands at 10 000 high grade spirit stones. She wants him dead or alive."

    Yuan Ji was stunned as he gasped, "10 000 high grade spirit stones? Is she crazy? She is willing to spend 10 000 high grade spirit stones just to get Ji Yuan?"

    Elder Sui smiled, "My sect is curious too and will be willing to pay anyone highly just to know the reasons as well."

    Then he put his head near to Yuan Ji and whispered, "Well, this information is free of charge for you. There is a rumor that Ji Yuan had taken the chastity of Xue Qianxue. Prior to the sudden disappearance of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan, it was said that they had met in a small ce and even had a quarrel."

    Yuan Ji whispered back, "Actually I know that Sword Saint Ji Yuan will not do anything like this. First of all, he can''t beat Xue Qianxue. Secondly, he doesn''t have that kind of a gut. Thirdly, he is also renowned as the Gentleman of the Sword."

    Elder Suiughed, "You are not him. How do you know he won''t really do that?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Well, I am just guessing. Haha."

    Elder Sui asked him with a curious smile, "I wonder why Pce Master Yuan is interested to know about this information?"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes to quickly cook up with an excuse before he whispered softly, "Well, my new consort Fairy Ye Chengxi is quite anxious to know about her rival Xue Qianxue. You know, these great beauties are always envious about each other."

    Elder Suiughed, "True, true!"

    Then he said, "Well, here is another free information for you then. The Goddess Ling Feiyue has also put a 10 000 high grade spirit stones for the head of Sword Saint Ji Yuan. This is really so weird. It actually started with 1000 high grade spirit stones but the two of them seems to be having apetition increase it every 10 years."

    Yuan Ji was frowning now. He could understand his feud with Xue Qianxue. But Ling Feiyue? He had only identally touched her boobs because he had thought that she was a man. Although watching her duel and touching her was punishable by death but offering 10 000 high grade spirit stones to get him dead or alive was just too ridiculous.

    It was not only overkill but it was ridiculous a lot and most celestial ns would never dream of even seeing 10 000 high grade spirit stones in their treasuries in their entire life time.

    "No,ing from the two goddesses, they will." Yuan Ji thought miserably. "It is because they are two of the loftiest goddesses in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and are also middle-tier saintesses. One small step more and they will be great saintesses. They will not allow anyone to trample upon their pride and honor. Therefore they will surely rip Ji Yuan apart, leaving behind not even bones."

    Then he thought with a heavy sigh as he rubbed his chin, "In this world, only I know the reasons for their furies against Ji Yuan. It is something that they will not reveal to anyone and only by killing Ji Yuan will their hearts be at peace."

    "Luckily, I am not Ji Yuan anymore. Well, at least not until I got back my beautiful beard of course."

    Then he smiled to Elder Sui and said, "Thank you. I got to go now. I have something to settle with a friend of mine first."

    Elder Suiughed, "Then I shall take my leave now. Good luck in your duel with the Old Divine Pce Master of the Divine Pce Master. Farewell, farewell!"

    After Elder Sui had taken his leave, Yuan Ji muttered. "I am going to need more than luck." Then he looked at the earth-step divine sword that was in his hand. "Luckily Jiajia had left behind a divine sword for me. There is still hope yet."

    Then he said unhappily, "I have a score to settle with a good friend of mine now. If it isn''t for you, I won''t be in this fine mess today!"

    If he was not wrong then this good friend of his was actually the primary source of all his bad luck!

 Chapter 31 Having Pigs In The Team

    "Wait!" Yuan Ji had suddenly halted Elder Sui.

    "What is it?" Elder Sui said.

    "There is someone that I want to ask you about." Yuan Ji said. "Do you know Xia Jiajia''s background?"

    "Who is she?" Elder Sui replied with a weak smile.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Never mind that. Do you know Xia Jiaqing''s background?"

    Elder Sui asked curiously, "You''re asking me about your previous Pce Mistress?"

    Yuan Ji nodded awkwardly.

    Elder Sui began to smile awkwardly, "You are not testing me, am I right?"

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "Do I look like I''m testing you?"

    Elder Suiughed weakly, "This information is free for you. Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing established the Emperor Hall Sect in the Five Heavens Peaks a hundred years ago and soon be one of the four great beauties of the fraternity due to her astonishing allure¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted, "What is her background before she bes Pce Mistress?"

    Elder Sui replied awkwardly, "There is no information on that."

    Yuan Ji: ???

    "Nothing?"

    ? Elder Sui smiled awkwardly, "Nothing at all. We''ve tried to check her background on many asions but we can''t find a single thing. She never stepped out of the Five Heavens Peak nor did she have any visitors for the past one hundred years. Even our best informants can tell us nothing. All we know is that she is peaked sixth realm golden supremacy when she had founded the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Then he added, "We think that Xia Jiaqing isn''t her real name."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    ¨C

    ¨C

    ¨C

    Supremacy Guo Taiming was trying to chat with the disinterested Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan when Yuan Ji had entered the small hall.

    "I was only trying to see if the two of you needs any help. I didn''t exactlye to create trouble¡­" Guo Taiming was saying panicky. "s, let me tell you a secret¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted with an icy hum, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words."

    Guo Taiming was suddenly smiling weakly when he saw Yuan Ji. "Haha, I didn''t say anything."

    Shangguan Yan: ???

    Fairy Ye Chengxi returned a perplexed look at them as she thought, "He is my old master''s best friend. So he has also recognized him? Is this the secret?"

    Yuan Ji smiled to Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, "I have a small matter to talk with Supremacy Guo Taiming first. I catch up with the two of youter."

    "Alright. Yan''Er takes my leave first." Shangguan Yan replied. She was only too d to leave. This Guo Taiming was a little too irritating to her but because he was her old master''s friend and was once a regr visitor to the Orthodox Sword Sect, she was forced to entertain him while waiting for Yuan Ji to return from his talk with Elder Sui.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled, "Chengxi will take my leave too." Like Shangguan Yan, she was only too d to leave now.

    As they walked off, Guo Taiming was still looking at their back view and was drooling.

    "Have you seen enough already?" Yuan Ji was frowning unhappily.

    Guo Taiming wasughing, "Beautiful, beautiful. Never enough. I still don''t understand until today how you manage to pick two such beautiful maidens to be your personal prot¨¦g¨¦s and now you have even taken them as your consorts? I am really so impressed by you."

    Yuan Ji growled, "So you must be wishing that I will be dead in six months then? So that you can take my consorts?"

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "Of course, brother."

    "Unfortunately I won''t die so easily. So dream on." Yuan Ji said coldly.

    Guo Taimingughed, "You will never know what will happen in six months."

    Yuan Ji began to say gravely, "You must never tell them my real identity. I don''t want them to know and I wish that they will have a beautiful memory instead."

    Guo Taiming replied solemnly, "Big Brother, you won''t die. Surely we can think of a way together? So what are your ns now?"

    Then he added, "Do you know how d I''m to see you again? You''ve suddenly gone missing and I don''t know what has happened to you¡­"

    Yuan Ji was frowning, "How am I going to answer you if you keep asking so many questions?"

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "I''m just so excited to see you again."

    "Let me ask you something first and I want you to answer me very honestly." Yuan Ji said with a big frown on his face.

    "I''m always honest with my big brother." Guo Taimingughed.

    "My poem. How did it get leak out?" Yuan Ji said solemnly.

    "What poem? Big Brother has so many great poems. Haha."

    Yuan Ji gave him an annoyed look before he recited slowly, "The fluttering snow as white as the Goddess Maiden Qianxue and the spirit songs as vivid as the Goddess Maiden Feiyue. To have the two beautiful goddesses to dance with the strokes of my beautiful beard is as heavenly as the sight of the immortal fairies¡­"

    Guo Taimingughed as he recited jovially the second half of the poem, "The lovelyughter of the two Goddess Maidens transcends the seven lofty peaks of the realm and the hundred flowers. Their beautiful songs stir my passions to no ends."

    "I really like this poem of yours so much." Guo Taiming stroked his beard as he chuckled jovially.

    Yuan Ji was now looking at him fiercely, "How on earth did this poem get leak out when only the two of us knows about this poem?"

    Guo Taiming chuckled, "Of course you have me to give credit for it! Can you imagine the praises of your name when I recite it in front of the crowd? Overnight, everyone is reciting this poem. Until today, this poem is still unbeatable and in the hearts of everyone."<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "But big brother, times have changed now. You ought to make a new poem for the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Do you know that your consort Fairy Ye Chengxi is one of the four great beauties now? She is now known as the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi. Hahaha¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji gave him a tremendous kick that sent him flying backward. "Hahaha my foot!"

    Guo Taiming was startled, "Big brother, why did you kick me for?"

    Yuan Ji raised his voice to rebuke him, "Not only do I want to kick you again, I want to kill you as well! Why did I have to have a pig on my side?! How many times must I tell you that this poem is only for our own pleasures only?"

    Guo Taiming protested, "But big brother, surely you''re not thinking of letting this masterpiece be forgotten in the river of time? This is a too good masterpiece to be forgotten and should be allowed to be recited by everyone."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Do you know that because of what you''ve done, I was forced to be on the run by Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue?"

    Guo Taiming was startled, "No wonder you have suddenly disappeared. No wonder there are a bounty for you by them."

    Yuan Ji said coldly, "So you even know about the bounty on my head and you didn''t even connect the dots?"

    Guo Taiming began to stroke his beard, "Hm,e to think of that, there seems to be a connection."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I can''t believe with your brains, you can be a sect leader of the White Blossom Peak!"

    "My old master made me a sect leader because I am more honest than my same seniority prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers and not because I''m smarter than them." Guo Taiming was smiling before adding. "In the end, my old master is proven right. Now I am the highest level celestial in my sect. Haha."

    Yuan Ji said coldly, "Why don''t you say it is your stupidity that causes all of them to perish before you?"

    Guo Taiming stroked his beard, "Come to think of that, you may say so as well."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Why don''t you die now?"

    "I''m still too young to die yet." Guo Taiming stroked his beard to ponder. "s but big brother will soon die before me."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Thank you for reminding me about this."

    "But really. I really don''t understand why you want to do such a foolish thing as to steal from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce? You''re courting your own death." Guo Taiming sighed heavily.

    "You really think that I will steal from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?" Yuan Ji smiled bitterly.

    Guo Taiming gasped, "Big brother, you mean you are being setup by someone?"

    Yuan Ji felt like banging his head on the wall as he replied bitterly, "What takes you so long to figure this out?"

    Guo Taiming stammered, "Who will do such a wicked thing to you?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Who do you think my positiones from?"

    Guo Taiming stroked his beard, "Hm¡­let me think hard for a little while¡­"

    "Are you sure that you''re even thinking hard?"

    "I''m trying. Hold on¡­I can''t figure out who¡­it is said that behind every sessful cultivator, there is a supportive maiden behind his back¡­you mean it is your Chengxi?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ...

    Yuan Ji cursed him loudly, "Why don''t you die now? I feel that your life is worthless up to this point."

    "Big brother, I never know you will actually mouth profanities. Aren''t you a gentleman of the sword?"

    "I''ve now decided to be a devil of the sword, thanks to you."

    Yuan Ji was now sighing to himself, "I need to find Jiajia and asks her why. My only clues to her whereabouts are Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue now¡­"

    He vowed silently, "What had exactly happened one hundred years ago?"

    He could still vividly remember their mockingughter a hundred years ago when they hadughed at the same time. "Ji Yuan will be a dead man soon."

    Guo Taiming had suddenly interrupted his thoughts, "Big brother, what are you thinking of now? Why don''t you share with me? Maybe I can help you. After all, two brains are better than one."

    Yuan Ji replied coldly, "No thanks. I''m afraid that you may end up brain dead if you were to help me. Moreover I don''t need a pig brain to help me."

    Guo Taiming: ¡­

    "This hurts my feeling, you know¡­"

    "I can make it hurt even more if you want to¡­and thank you for screwing me up with my own poem¡­"

    "You''re wee¡­"

    "Go die now and please get lost from my Emperor Hall Sect¡­"

    "Big brother, you haven''t told me about your experiences yet and I haven''t chatted enough with the two sisters-inw yet¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I feel like ughtering you with my divine sword right now if you still insist on staying."

 Chapter 32 This Is My Plan

    Yuan Ji was now sighing heavily as he looked with great reluctant at Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    "Yan''Er, Chengxi. I''ll be away for a little while." He had finally taken the courage to announce to them.

    Both Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were both started as they took a step back. They had not expected for this to happen.

    Yuan Ji saw their shocked look, he tried to lighten the mood by making a joke, "I''m not trying to run away. In fact, I will be back even before the six months are up."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi returned an gentle smile, "We know that Brother Yuan Ji will never run away and to abandon us to the swords of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. But may we know the reasons why you will be away?"

    Yuan Ji began to sigh heavily again as he turned his back around to look at the full moon. "I need to find Xia Jiaqing first. At least before I die, I must find her at all costs. I owe her something (an apology) and she owes me something (an exnation)."

    He did not dare to tell the two maidens about the apology and the exnation because he did not want them to know that he was really Ji Yuan their old master.

    Shangguan Yan nodded lightly, "I hope that she is fine. Yan''Er owes my current happiness to her."

    "Brother Yuan Ji, do you know where to look for her?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him curiously before she quickly added. "Can we go with you?"

    Yuan Ji said, "No, you can''t go with me. As a matter of fact, I need the two of you to lie to everyone that I am in quiet seclusion to prepare for the uing duel."

    "As for her whereabouts¡­" Yuan Ji hesitated for a while before he replied. "I know there are two persons that can give me a clue."

    Shangguan Yan asked curiously, "Who are the two persons?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue."

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were gasping at the same time.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly, "One is the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial OrthodoxSect who belongs to one of the seven major orthodox ns and the other is the Dark Mistress of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect from one of the five major unorthodox ns. It is going to quite difficult for you to even seek an audience with any one of them."

    Then with a deep soft sigh, she added. "Moreover, we can''t be sure if Xue Qianxue has a hand in her disappearance. What if she decides to take this opportunity to silence you?"

    Shangguan Yan nodded quickly, "Also, the Xue Qianxue''s Celestial Orthodox Sect is off-limits to men. Although from time to time they do entertain the male cultivators but they are always the leaders or important figures of the celestial fraternity."

    Then her gentle eyes began to shift as she said weakly, "As for Ling Feiyue''s Spirit Blue Moon Sect, it is an enemy of the majority of the orthodox celestial ns. It is unwise to for any orthodox cultivator to pay a visit there."

    "I have thought of that already." Yuan Ji said lightly as he gave them an assuring smile. "Trust me, I have a n already."

    Shangguan Yan was startled, "May Big Brother shares with your Yan''Er this n of yours?"

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi was looking at Yuan Ji with a perplexed look. Although the Emperor Hall Sect was quite well-known in the celestial fraternity but it was mostly due to the renown of Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing as one of the great beauties of the celestial fraternity and not because it was due to the might of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    It was because in the eyes of the seven major orthodox ns and the five major unorthodox ns, the Emperor Hall Sect was actually only a puny sect of no consequences. After all, each of the seven major orthodox ns could easily field a hundred over golden celestials.

    In short, these twelve celestial ns were literally the superpowers of the celestial fraternity.

    Yuan Ji suddenly had a mischievous smile, "You know. The night is so short and I will be leaving before the first ray of dawn¡­"

    Shangguan Yan looked away with a flustered look as she interrupted him with a shy smile, "You''re thinking of that, am I right?"

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi was averting her eyes shyly and she was gasping softly.

    Yuan Ji put on a straight face as he said lightly, "This n of mine is best whispered behind the closed doors of the bed chamber. In this way, nothing will get leak. But if it does get leak out, I know that it is the two of you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi chuckled softly, "You''re too shameless. If your n gets leak out, you will still need to guess which one of us is the leaker¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had grabbed her with his right arm and he was grabbing Shangguan Yan with his left arm.

    "It doesn''t matter to me. You''re both my consorts. The two of you will share the me together."

    "Let me go, you shameless flower thief¡­"

    "You are a beast of a man¡­"

    "I am so wrong about you¡­"

    "He is an absolute beast. Sister, I hope that today you''ve finally seen his true colors¡­"

    "Why are our fates so miserable?"

    Yuan Ji did not care for what they were saying and he continued to carry them until he had thrown them on the soft bed. He knew that they were just doing a shy feeble protest and were not serious about stopping him or they would have resisted already.

    "This beast of a man will show you how beastie I am tonight." Yuan Jiughed lightly.

    And he was already starting to strip them and had thrown aside their clothing piece by piece to the ground.

    He chuckled softly, "Two innocent maidens have now fallen into my hands. You can run but you can''t hide. No, you can''t run without your clothes on and you can''t hide from my eyes either."

    Then with a gentle smile, he said. "The two heavenly flowers of my heart is bidding me farewell,forting my sorrows and my silent tears¡­"

    "You''re too beastie¡­"

    "Shameless¡­"

    "He is speaking like a real lecherous flower thief¡­"

    "I didn''t know that a lecherous flower thief can also recite poems. This is the first time that I''ve ever heard of this¡­"

    "I feel that the one that are in tears are actually us and not him. This poem sounds so wrong¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed as he took off his robe hastily, "I aming! And I will p your butt cheeks hard!"

    "He¡­ising¡­"

    "This fake flower thief seems to be taking his time¡­"

    "Maybe it is his first time¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "I''m losing interest, sister¡­"

    "Same here¡­"

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly and he doubled his speed of stripping before he jumped on the bed.

    There were screaming sounds and the jerking of the bed as the three of them battled together.

    "let go of me, you beast¡­"

    "I will scream for help if you don''t let go of me¡­"

    "Somebody help¡­"

    Hourster¡­

    Yuan Ji was now holding onto Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    "So what is your n?" Fairy Ye Chengxi said him quietly. "Don''t give me the only good n is no n stuff."

    Shangguan Yan nodded lightly, "We are not allowing you to leave unless you truly have a n."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly before he said slowly, "Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue will surely allow me into their presence. It is because my n is to make them fight against each other."

    Shangguan Yan was startled, "Why will they fight with each other? They''re enemies?"

    "Do they even know each other in the very first ce?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously.

    Yuan Ji nodded, "I happen to know that they have a feud with each other and I''m thinking that I can actually make use of it to enter into an audience with them."

    Shangguan Yan shook her head with a weak smile, "You''re lying. They won''t just see you because you know that they have a feud with each other."

    Yuan Ji returned a gentle look at Shangguan Yan. Although his Yan''Er was weaker than his Chengxi but she was the smarter of the two. When he was around her, he had to ensure that he did not leave behind any clues for her to identify himself as her old master.

    "I have something that they both wanted badly. I can make use of that." Yuan Ji said.

    "What is it?" Shangguan Yan asked curiously.

    "Secret."

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    "Tell us?"

    "Secret."

    "Our Brother Yuan Ji is so bad. He tricks us into bed and he still refuses to tell us anything."

    "That''s right! Shameless!"

    "Don''t be so mean and give us a little clue?"

    "Say whatever you like. Your mind games don''t work on me¡­"

    "We''re not letting you go unless you tell us¡­"

    "Right Sister¡­"

    Finally with a soft sigh, Yuan Ji quickly cooked up with an excuse. "Xia Jiaqing is the key. If I tell them that I know her real name then I can bait them."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously, "Xia Jiaqing''s real name?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "She is only using a fake name. Nothing is known about her past before she bes the Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Shangguan Yan was gasping, "Then who is she?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue may know the answer. The real problem is, how do I get them to willingly share with me the truth?"

    In his mind he had worked out some loose details; Ling Feiyue was the more likely of the two to know the real Xia Jiajia. It was because they were in each otherpany. As for Xue Qianxue, she had a feud with Xia Jiajia and may know her equally well too. After all no one understand their enemies more than anyone else.

    It was also very likely that Xia Jiajia was a high level cultivation expert from one of the five major unorthodox ns. If she was not, it was hard to exin why she was in Ling Feiyue''spany and why they were both nning a scheme together against Xue Qianxue?

    Yuan Ji saw that the two maidens were now giving him a sentimental look and he was startled.

    He could only apologize silently in his heart to them. "I can only tell you the half-truths for now. Even I have no answers for the time being. I don''t even know if my n is a good one or not."

    Unknown to him, Fairy Ye Chengxi was quietly observing his every little nuance. Although she may not be as smart and decisive as her sister Shangguan Yan but she knew all the subtle emotions of her old master.

    She knew that he was not telling the whole truths and she was only pretending to believe him.  From his subtle expressions, she knew that he was actually anxious in his heart.

    She quietly lifted her fingers to gently touch his shoulder and was secretly delighted. Although their unison was short but these few days were the happiest day of her life. She had dream of their unison for a long, long time.

    What made her happy as well was that even her sister Shangguan Yan had found sce in Yuan Ji. Toward her sister, she had always felt a terrible guilt in her heart. It was because her sister had sacrificed her happiness in order to protect her and the Orthodox Sword Sect. There was no way she could make it up for her.

    Although they were very close sisters but she did not dare to tell her that Yuan Ji was actually Ji Yuan her old master. She was really afraid that her sister would not be able to handle the shock too well.

    She inhaled slowly as a drop of tear dripped down her cheek, reciting silently. "The two heavenly flowers of my heart is bidding me farewell,forting my sorrows and my silent tears." This may possibly be thest poem that her old master would dedicate to her.

    Shangguan Yan was also quietly reciting the short poem. Even though she had teased her Brother Yuan Ji about it but she was actually remembering it in her heart and was saddened by it.

    She muttered silently, "Do you know that your Yan''Er already knows who you are? I didn''t tell you because I don''t want a master-disciple rtionship with you. Actually, Chengxi isn''t the only one that has idolized you secretly. If Chengxi can protect your Orthodox Sword Sect for you, so can I."

    This was something that she had never disclosed to her Sister Chengxi. It was because she could tell that her sister''s eyes were always following her old master.

    "Sister, I hope that you will be able to forget about our old master now. Because our Big Brother Yuan Ji is actually our Old Master Ji Yuan¡­" That was the reason why she was eager to pair off Yuan Ji with her sister. Luckily, her sister did not seem to have much of an objection. Maybe it was due to the fact that Yuan Ji was quite dashing and moreover he had helped her sister on many asions.

 Chapter 33 The Truth Hurts

    Yuan Ji had now decided on his first target now. And it was Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    Therefore he had decided to go to the Holy Maiden Peaks where the Celestial Orthodox Sect was located and where Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was.

    After a few days, Yuan Ji was now in the vicinity of the Thousand Cloud Peaks.

    All of a sudden he had remembered that he had a friend that was the Manor Lord of the Fluttering Winds Manor.

    Therefore he had decided to visit this friend of his in secret.

    "This is only for a short while and won''t take long."

    The Fluttering Winds Manor was one of the dozens of celestial ns that were in the Thousand Cloud Peaks.

    It was just a small celestial n with barely any renown but it had all changed when the Manor Lord Li Yi of the Fluttering Winds Manor was conferred with the honor of one of the four beautiful bearded cultivators.

    Overnight, Li Yi had be famous in the Thousand Cloud Peaks and his renown was known throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    And this was the old friend that Yuan Ji was secretly visiting today.

    But of course he was not going to reveal to Li Yi that he was really Ji Yuan. It was because he was just going to take a peek on the sly and to check on his rival''s beard.

    "It''ll be bad if my position as the most beautiful bearded cultivator is overtaken by the other three."

    All of a sudden he had noticed there was a veiled maiden in white with a pair of beautiful golden eyes walking down the mountain slope on the other side. She was actually very far away but Yuan Ji''s eyes were sharper than an eagle and he could see the details on her quite clearly.

    This veil maiden had extremely light steps and that was what had caught his notice was that her forehead had a beautiful blue flower petal. Her eyelids were colored with a faint blue and her fingernails were also painted with a light blue. Even her belt, earrings, hairpins and gloves were a beautiful peacock blue.

    Yuan Ji was thinking, "This maiden seems to like blue alot. Even though I can''t see her face but this maiden must be an extraordinary beautiful maiden. Since she hade from the direction of the Fluttering Winds Manor then she must be from there. But is she alone in this wilderness? What if there are deste beasts in the vicinity?"

    "She has the moving figure of my Xia Jiajia but unfortunately she is not her. This veil maiden has a pure look that is untainted by her surroundings."

    All of a sudden he was gasping because a terrifying fifth rank deste beast had just ascended from the deste mists below the mountains and it had suddenly appeared in front of this moving veiled maiden.

    The Celestial Realm is just the middle realm between the lower Mortal Realm and the upper Immortal Realm.

    The Celestial Realm is unlike the lower Mortal Realm where there are vast oceans and innds. The entire Celestial Realm is consisted of endless lofty mountains and it is thousands of times as vast as the lower Mortal Realm.

    The many celestial ns and poptions are situated high above the mountains. Usually the powerful celestial ns will be situated on mountains that are rich in spiritual veins that are refined by rich deposits of jadeites. That will be the most ideal ce for cultivation. Other than spiritual veins and jadeites, mountains that are rich in silver and golden celestiums are also ideal, since silver and golden celestiums are needed in great demand to make precious weapons.

    Below the mountains, are thick deste mists and endless bottomless valleys that are filled with many powerful deste monsters. The spiritual aura below the deste mists is poor and unsuitable for cultivation.

    Moreover the presence of the deste aura is too overwhelming and can easily corrupt a cultivator inner core. However because of this very same reason, it is the ideal ce for the deste monsters that feed upon it.

    In a way, the deste mists act as a natural barrier between the deste beasts below and the divine beasts that dwell high in the mountains.

    The deste aura below the mountains actuallye from the same mountain veins as the spiritual veins that the cultivators depend upon. The only difference is that this deste aura is actually refined into spiritual aura by the rich deposits of jadeites in the mountains and by the purifying aura above the mountains that are continuously cleansed by the divine lightning.

    From time to time, there is always a possibility that a powerful deste monster will emerge from the valley below.

    The richer the spiritual auras in the mountains, the weaker the deste auras that will be at the bottom. Therefore it is not wrong to say that mountains that are rich in spiritual auras usually do not have powerful deste beasts below the deste mists.

    For such a powerful fifth rank deste beast to appear in the vicinity can only mean that the spiritual aura presented in the Thousand Cloud Peaks is only so and so.

    Now a fifth rank deste beast is typically beyond the strength of most cultivators to handle and even a superior fifth realm golden celestial like Yuan Ji may find it difficult to handle alone.

    Moreover it was a pure and defenseless maiden that he saw. Golden celestial or not, she is going to have a hard time unless she is a seventh realm saintess.

    Therefore Yuan Ji was panicky for her and just as he was about to step forth from his hiding ce, the golden eyes of the veil maiden had turned blue and before he could know what was happening, the terrifying fifth rank deste beast was kicked down the deste mist again like a child kicking a pebble.

    Yuan Ji was stunned as he blinked his eyes with disbelief. "Seventh realm saintess? What is a saintess doing here?"

    The veil maiden appeared to be giggling as she continued her way down the mountains. As she giggled, she was dancing lightly away.

    "Luckily, I am too far away for her to notice me. If not, I may be the one that is getting silenced too. Thest thing I ever want to encounter is another enemy that is like Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue again."

    With that he had secretly sneaked away but he was still thinking about the enticing veiled maiden that seemed impossible strong.

    "Is it even possible to kick a fifth rank deste beast that is twice your size and ten times heavier than you in this manner?"

    "And what type of profound art is she practicing that can cause her eyes to turn blue?"

    "Is she from the unorthodox sects?"

    "Is someone in the Fluttering Winds Manor in cahoots with the unorthodox sects?"<sub> </sub>

    -

    -

    -

    When Yuan Ji had reached the Fluttering Winds Manor, it was already nightfall and was perfect for him to sneak around.

    His lightless skill was among the top in the entire fraternity and naturally it was easy for him to sneak around undetected.

    He soon found Li Yi in his study room and he was now taking a curious peek at him.

    He was dying to know the status of his rival''s beard.

    All of a sudden he was stunned and had almost fallen from the roof; it was because he saw that Li Yi was actually beardless and he was now putting on his fake beard.

    He began to curse loudly in his heart, "This Li Yi is actually a faker! How can he even be considered to be one of the four most beautiful bearded cultivators?! He is a cheater!"

    He was so enraged that he had almost confronted Li Yi. But luckily, he had suddenly remembered that Li Yi was a sixth realm golden supremacy and it may not be easy to beat him up. Secondly he was like the kettle calling the pot ck. He himself had no beard too; he was a faker now as well.

    Li Yi was now bowing on his knees in his study room and he was heard muttering, "Big Brother Ji Yuan, please forgive me! I really didn''t want to do this to you. For a hundred years, I''ve been living a life of regrets to set you up in front of Xue Qianxue. I didn''t think that things will be this serious."

    Then he was banging his head on the floor thrice before hemented, "Today this Maiden Xia hade again to warn me never to reveal anything about the incident one hundred years ago or she will wipe out my entire sect. If I know that I will be in this state, I would never have agreed to help her to set you up¡­"

    "I only did it because she says that Xue Qianxue has a remedy that can help me to regrow my beard. I cannot be aughing stock in front of the other cultivators¡­"

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned by what he had overheard.

    If he had not decided toe to visit this ''friend'' of his, he would never have learnt of the truth a hundred years ago!

    All of a sudden he was startled when he recalled something. That veiled maiden earlier was actually Xia Jiajia!

    She was actually still alive and well!

    His heart was now aching. Why did he not confront that veiled maiden earlier? He had just missed the greatest opportunity that he had ever got to confront her for all the answers. In the end, he still did not know who she was.

    He was now staring nkly at Li Yi who had set him up a hundred years ago, recalling what he had said to him that very day;

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, I think that in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity, only you are apatible match to Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue. There are no others who can evene closer than you in term of your good looks!"

    "I have heard that Xue Qianxue has a divine remedy that can not only restore a man''s beard but also can make it grow even more beautiful than ever."

    "If one day, Big Brother Ji Yuan decides to take Xue Qianxue as your consort, I hope that you can share the remedy with us?"

    Li Yi obviously knew that Xue Qianxue was around and he had purposely baited him.

    But the prime mover was actually Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue.

    He was trembling hard, "Jiajia, why did you setup me for?"

    Because Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue were from the unorthodox sects and they were trying to screw Xue Qianxue?

    He was suddenly regretful for what he had done to Xue Qianxue. He had not only caused her to lose her honor and also caused her to lose her duel with Ling Feiyue.

    He was but a small pawn that the bigger yers would not hesitate to make use of for their bigger schemes of things.

    Sometimes the truth was simple to guess especially when the missing keys had been found.

    And the missing key was actually Li Yi who had betrayed him.

    "Jiajia, you didn''t know that you have such a pig head in your team, am I right? This Li Yi had just identally revealed everything to me. Your n to silence him has now backfired because you did not think that I will be here."

    "But who exactly are you?"

    He was confused now. Because he had seen Xia Jiajia in three different lights. Which one was the real her?

    His heart was bleeding tears now. "Jiajia, to think that I want to be with you. But you have actually set me up. Not only did you set me up, you even get me into trouble with Hundred Flowers Divine Pce. But why did you wait for me for a hundred years then? Why did you help my Orthodox Sword Sect then?"

    Only the cultivators from the unorthodox sects would y tricks like this. First they helped you and then they stabbed you in the back. That was why they were not called the unorthodox cultivators for nothing. Because they enjoyed making fools out of the orthodox cultivators.

    Take Li Yi for example. He may have helped the unorthodox cultivators but he was now living under the shadow of his beautiful beard being exposed as a fake and he had no choice but to do Xia Jiajia''s biddings.

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Jiajia, it is time for the tables to be turned upon you. I swear that I will get you before my duel with the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce. Even if I were to die, I''ll make sure that you will apany me along."

 Chapter 34 This Is My Gift (1)

    Yuan Ji was now at the foot of the Holy Maiden Peaks where the Celestial Orthodox Sect was.

    He was quite surprised to find that he was not the only one who was trying to seek an audience with Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    As a matter of fact, there were hundreds of cultivators that were now camping outside the heaven gates of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    When they saw him, there were clearly hostilities in their eyes.

    "Look, here is another cultivator¡­"

    "He may be handsome looking but the Sacred Maiden has indicated that looks alone do not matter to her."

    "So what if he is another golden celestial? He still needs to queue up just like any one of us¡­"

    "He looks poor¡­"

    "He is definitely poor¡­"

    "Must be someone who is from a minor sect¡­"

    "He can go eat shit¡­"

    "He has actuallye alone?"

    "He must be a hermit autonomous celestial in some unknown peaks¡­"

    "Hahaha¡­"

    "I don''t even see his n banner¡­"

    "Looks like someone who has just broken through the golden celestial level and he''s just trying his luck¡­"

    "Isn''t it obvious? He is just in time for the monthly invite. What a great timing that he got here in a nick of time."

    Yuan Ji was actually quite startled by their open hostilities. It was because he was at least a golden celestial and they dared to be so rude to him?

    Then he had suddenly realized that these cultivators were only servants to the golden celestials that were around.

    As he took a closer look at their banners, he was even more taken aback. These were all the banners of all the other six major orthodox sects and all the prominent orthodox sects that were in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Yuan Ji suddenly had a sheepish look on his face as he thought, "Howe I didn''t know that Xue Qianxue is so popr? This is a little too exaggerating. I don''t even see so many suitors that are going after my Chengxi or Jiajia¡­"

    "That''s because the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi and Goddess Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing have turned away everyone." His inner demon pointed out to him.

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly, "Xue Qianxue seems to turn everyone away as well. Howe there are so many hundreds of cultivators here? Some of them seem to be here for months even."

    "To be turned away by the Goddess Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is the ultimate honor for these cultivators. Therefore they don''t feel any shame at all." His inner demon analyzed his question to the finest detail. "Xue Qianxue is from the top seven orthodox ns and therefore in the eyes of the orthodox cultivators, she is considered to be the number one goddess. To be able to win her heart or to earn her praises mean great honor to their celestial ns at the same time¡­

    "Therefore, these orthodox cultivators can be shamelessly thick skin in front of her." Yuan Ji interrupted his inner demon with another deep frown. "I get it now."

    Yuan Ji was of course talking to himself.

    Soon the heaven gates of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were opened and several maidens had descended down the flight of stairs to greet the cultivators below.

    "Greetings to the holy maidens of the Celestial Orthodox Sect¡­"

    "May you give this flying sword to the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue¡­"

    "This is the thousand year red dragon fruit¡­"

    "Ten thousand year Spirit Lingzi¡­"

    "This is the primeval blood of a true dragon¡­"

    "This is a half-step divine sword¡­"

    "Golden life rejuvenation pills¡­"

    "It is the thousand year old silk from the finest celestium silks¡­"

    When Yuan Ji saw the numerous precious gifts that were prepared for Xue Qianxue, his eyes began to roll.

    "This is too exaggerating. I didn''t know that even divine swords can be given out in this manner. Golden life rejuvenation pills, thousand year old celestium silk, the precious drop of blood from a true dragon, ten thousand year Spirit Lingzi, flying swords¡­everything from cultivation resources to powerful weapons¡­this Xue Qianxue gets all these every month?!"

    Yuan Ji was beginning to think that the 10,000 high grade spirit stones for his head were like sands in her eyes now. Every single one of these gifts was all highly coveted in the celestial fraternity. Even the Emperor Hall Sect could only barely afford a single gift that was equivalentpared to one of their gifts.

    After some time, the holy maidens said to everyone, "If there are no other gifts then we shall take our leave first. We will show our Sacred Maiden these gifts and she will decide which one of you shall be invited to the guest hall.

    Many of the cultivators were now pointing at the flustered Yuan Ji, "There is one more cultivator here. It looks like he has not presented a gift yet."

    "That''s right!"

    "Show us your gift¡­"

    "Don''t tell me he is going away without ever presenting his gift?"

    "I think he is too shy about showing his gifts."

    "His gifts will be rejected anyway."

    "Hahaha¡­"

    A holy maiden quietly asked him, "Do you have a gift? If not, please leave now."

    Yuan Ji said with a faint smile, "I happen to have the best gift for the Sacred Maiden."

    When he had said that, all the cultivators were allughing heartily.

    Yuan Ji ignored them as he took out a letter, "I''ve a letter for the Sacred Maiden."

    The holy maiden: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    The holy maiden began tough jovially and so were all the listeners around Yuan Ji.

    "A letter?!"<sub> </sub>

    "A love letter to be more exact?"

    "This is such a cheap gift¡­"

    "Is it a rmendation letter?"

    The holy maidenughed jovially, "Our Sacred Maiden does not read any of the letters that her admirers sent. Don''t say I didn''t warn you first. So other than this letter, do you have another gift to send to her?"

    Yuan Ji replied coolly. "This letter is already the best gift."

    The holy maiden hummed coldly as she stared at him with a look of disbelief, "Good luck to you then."

    With that she had taken her leave with the other holy maidens.

    When they had left, all the cultivators were allughing out loud at Yuan Ji.

    "Look at him. Only a letter and no gift?"

    "Is he trying to spoil the mood of the Sacred Maiden and screw us all at the same time?"

    "The Sacred Maiden won''t even bother to read your letter at all. Why don''t you leave now, rather than be an embarrassment to yourself?"

    Yuan Ji said nonchntly to them, "All these precious gifts just so that you can be invited to the guest hall? You don''t even know if you can see the Sacred Maiden. Do you feel that your actions are foolish or not."

    "This is our business and none of your business¡­"

    "We are rich cultivators and we like to show off¡­"

    "So what? Are you envious of our cultivation resources?"

    "Go away, you poor cultivator."

    "Fancy someone like him who dares to even dream of trying his luck for our goddess..."

    "He will never be able to even see the Sacred Maiden in his lifetime¡­"

    "I have the honor to drink tea with the Sacred Maiden once before¡­"

    "Her smiles can topple the entire cultivation world and her loveliness can cause all hearts to stop beating¡­"

    "He isn''t fit to even lift the shoes of the Sacred Maiden¡­"

    Yuan Ji was smiling weakly at them as he cursed them silently. "I''ve better not let them know that I''ve shared the same bathtub as Xue Qianxue or I''ll be a dead man in just a matter of seconds."

    Then he was rubbing his chin, "Bute to think of that, Xue Qianxue''s loveliness is actually quite adorable..." He began to recall her loveliness that very night when he was peeping at her for an hour.

    He began to cultivate at one corner while ignoring the rest of the cultivators who continued to mock at him and making him the butt of their bad jokes.

    Two hourster;

    The same group of holy maidens had descended from the heavenly gates.

    "So is the Sacred Maiden pleased with our gifts?"

    "Did the Sacred Maiden says who she will be seeing today?"

    "We can go to the Verdant Tranquil Pce and be served tea?"

    But the holy maidens ignored all the other cultivators and instead, they were greeting Yuan Ji respectfully, "Great Celestial, please pardon our rudeness earlier. Pleasee with us to see our Sacred Maiden."

    The leading holy maiden said to the rest, "Our Sacred Maiden will not see anyone else today. We will return all your gifts to you shortly.

    Then she turned to Yuan Ji and said, "Please follow us."

    Yuan Ji nodded lightly.

    Now he felt like the top of the world as he trampled the prides of all the lofty young masters of the prominent celestial ns under him.

    Before he left to follow the holy maidens, he could not resist letting go of a downhearted sigh. "Why am I so awesome to have the only gazes of the beautiful goddess upon me? I guess that tonight I won''t be lonely at all."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Quite a number of cultivators had spurted blood when they had heard him and a great number of them were trembling with seething rage.

    When Yuan Ji was out of their sight, all the hundreds of cultivators were all muttering in great confusion;

    "It is¡­only a letter¡­"

    "What is going on here?"

    "Did we just insult a powerful reclusive figure?"

    "Why did the Sacred Maiden only see him? This is the first time¡­"

    "What is the mystery behind that letter?"

    "Now we are theughing stock instead of that man¡­"

    "What magic did he use?"

    "We should have asked him to read the contents of the letter to us earlier¡­"

    "Now we never know what trick he has used¡­"

    "Our goddess will be seeing him alone¡­this is too heartbreaking¡­"

    "Someone hasmitted suicide by jumping off the mountains¡­"

    "No, there are three more like him¡­"

    "Wait, another young master has jumped off the mountains now¡­"

 Chapter 35 This Is My Gift (2)

    There were dozens of magnificent pces within the heaven gates of the Celestial Orthodox Sect with each mountain peak housing one magnificent pce.

    Yuan Ji had never stepped into any of the top seven major orthodox ns before and he was dumbfounded by the sights of the many lofty pces, pavilions and white celestium tforms that were visible to the naked eyes. It was liken to the sight of seeing dozens of celestial ns instead of just one celestial n.

    Before he hade here, he had already heard that the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue resided in one of the thirty peaks of the Holy Maiden Peaks. The name of her pce was called the Sacred Maiden Tranquil Pce and it was the most beautiful pce in the Holy Maiden Peaks.

    Yuan Ji had taken a quick look around and saw that there were thousands of female prot¨¦g¨¦s practicing their sword arts on the many open tforms. At the same time he saw that there were also many golden celestials and high level cultivators in their ranks.

    Soon, he was in the guest hall of the Verdant Tranquil Pce and it was the nearest pce to the heaven gates.

    The group of holy maidens said to him, "Our Sacred Maiden will be here soon. Please wait here for a while and please help yourself to the spirit dews from the Heavenly Celestial Peaks that is in the pot here."

    They bowed respectfully before saying. "We shall take our leave now."

    Yuan Ji knew that Xue Qianxue would surely show up. It was because he had a way to make her read his ''cheap'' and ''worthless'' letter.

    And he was proven right.

    It was because the cover of the letter wrote that this letter was from Ji Yuan.

    The content of the letter had nothing special in particr except for the lines, "The fluttering snow as white as the Goddess Maiden Qianxue and the spirit songs as vivid as the Goddess Maiden Feiyue. To have the two beautiful goddesses to dance with the strokes of my beautiful beard is as heavenly as the sight of the immortal fairies."

    It ended with the lines, "I know where Ji Yuan is."

    In short, his letter was pure provocation rather than any precious gift.

    He had overheard the conversations that were between Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue; this poem irked them and that was the very reason why Ling Feiyue had set him up against Xue Qianxue.

    It was because Yuan Ji knew that Xue Qianxue probably had plenty of false imantsing to her on the whereabouts of Ji Yuan to get her rewards. Over time she must have seen plenty of fraudsters and over time, she may have lost her interest in the false imants.

    Therefore his aim was to get her attention on the cover of the letter first and then to provoke her in the content of the letter. Only then would she be willing to meet him.

    In a short while time, Xue Qianxue had indeed arrived and she was alone.

    As a matter of fact, she had arrived sooner than he had expected.

    Yuan Ji was gasping when he saw her; it was because he had almost forgotten how peerless her appearance was. As was in the past, she still bundled her hair into a long side pony tail. Her loveliness was still as melting to the hearts and she was more adorable as ever before.

    Even though she appeared to be upset but instead of having an ugly countenance, it was changed to a more adorable countenance instead.

    The more provoked she was and the uglier her negative emotions were, the more her loveliness was shown and the more adorable she looked.

    Xue Qianxue gave a soft gasp when she saw Yuan Ji but she soon disyed an uninterested look as she said nonchntly, "You''ve better not lie to me. You know Ji Yuan''s whereabouts?"

    After she had said that, she had thrown the letter like a secret projectile to the ground, piercing the letter halfway into the floor tiles like putting a knife on a piece of tofu.

    Her internal profound strength was indeed startling!

    It was also a warning to Yuan Ji not to lie to her.

    Xue Qianxue said coldly, "There have been countless foolish cultivators that had thought of lying to me and they had all paid heavily. I hope that you are not one of them."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly as he eyed the letter that was pieced into the floor, "Of course I will dare not. If not I won''t being. You''ve better prepared your 10 000 high grade spirit stones for me to use, the sooner the better."

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly as her eyes stole a nce at the letter, "That will depend on your answer."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Actually I am not interested in your rewards but I need two things from you before I can reveal Ji Yuan''s whereabouts to you."

    Xue Qianxue looked at him curiously, "Which is?"

    Yuan Ji smiled, "Before that, let me give a greeting to Sacred Maiden Xue first. I''m Yuan Ji the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Xue Qianxue gasped softly, "You''re that dead man Yuan Ji?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue quickly corrected herself, "I mean soon to be dead man in another five months. No one can win a challenge from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "As long as righteousness exists in the heavens, I will not lose hope."

    Xue Qianxue looked at him quietly before sheughed lightly, "Although there is righteousness in the heavens but only the hearts of the righteous can find it. You are not. You are just a vermin."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Why is she cursing me?" He bitterly cursed her in his heart. "But her smiles are really so beautiful and cute¡­"

    Xue Qianxue said impatiently, "I don''t have all the time in the world. Hurry up and tell me the two things that you want from me?"

    Yuan Ji smiled coolly as he said, "Firstly, I want the divine remedy of the Celestial Orthodox Sect for growing back beards and secondly, I want to know who Xia Jiajia really is."

    Xue Qianxue was suddenly giggling and she had her hands on her belly. This made her look even more lovely and adorable.

    But Yuan Ji was not amused as he asked, "What''s so funny about my requests?"

    "Nothing. I was just thinking why you don''t want the high grade spirit stones and instead you want some cheap remedy." Xue Qianxue continued to chuckle.

    "Oh? That is my business¡­"

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue had raised her palm and struck Yuan Ji''s violently on his shoulder, sending him to fly and crash with a thunderous impact against the wall!

    Yuan Ji waspletely taken by surprise from her attack as he coughed out golden blood. He struggled to speak weakly, "Why did you attack me all of a sudden? Don''t you want to know where Ji Yuan is?"

    Xue Qianxue returned him a delightful smile, "Do I need to know where Ji Yuan is when he is now standing right in front of me now?"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he thought, "How did she know?"

    As though Xue Qianxue could hear his thoughts, she exined delightfully. "You must be wondering why I know. Even if you want to deny it now, it is futile to exin because I know that you are really Ji Yuan."

    Yuan Ji was thinking. "Is she ying a mind game with me? Stay calm. No matter what she says, don''t be hasty to admit it. It is only her ruse¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, I''ve been looking for you for so many years and I didn''t think that you will deliver yourself to me? You have insulted my honor that night and I''ve never forgotten you to this day."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You must be greatly mistaken. I am not Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "I know you are because only Ji Yuan will be interested to get this divine remedy from me¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly to himself, "That isn''t true. All my beautiful beard brothers are also interested to get your divine remedy¡­"

    "But do you know that only Ji Yuan knows the name of Xia Jiajia? Not Maiden Xia or Maiden Jiajia. This is the name that she has revealed only to him. Therefore if you are not Ji Yuan then who are you?" Xue Qianxue was giggling. "This is originally our secret code for Ji Yuan to reveal himself."

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned. He had thought that Xia Jiajia was in cahoots with Ling Feiyue but she was actually in cahoots with Xue Qianxue!<sub> </sub>

    And to think that he was here today to help Xue Qianxue avenge her honor against Ling Feiyue.

    Just exactly what was the identity of Xia Jiajia was?!

    Was she from the orthodox or the unorthodox side?

    Yuan Ji had broken into a cold sweat now as the injuries that Xue Qianxue had inflicted on him were not light and he could even feel an invading chilling profound energy that was afflicting him.

    But he decided to make onest attempt to bluff his way through, "Your logic has a w. I have heard of the divine remedy from Ji Yuan himself. As for Xia Jiajia, I''ve heard from Ji Yuan that she is an astonishing beauty therefore I will like to be acquainted with her¡­"

    Xue Qianxueughed jovially, "No one will give up 10 000 high grade spirit stones to get a worthless divine remedy and be acquainted with a stranger."

    Just as Yuan Ji was about to protest with another excuse, Xue Qianxue had covered his mouth and was looking at him curiously. "Except for your beardless chin, you look exactly like Ji Yuan too. Also, you still have the same tiny scar that is just above your eye."

    Xue Qianxue had covered his mouth because she had wanted to be sure that he was Ji Yuan and she was convinced now.

    Yuan Ji was gasping. He had forgotten the eyesight of a saintess was extremely sharp to notice small details that were not thought possible by the other lower level cultivators. He indeed had a tiny scar above his right eye.

    Xue Qianxue was nowughing jovially, "I''ve finally found you. Do you think that I will let you off so easily?"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had a very bad feeling about this.

    "Let me tell you something very interesting first. Do you want to hear?" Xue Qianxue asked him as she gave him a heart melting wink.

    But Ji Yuan had no mood to appreciate her loveliness now as he smiled bitterly. "What is it?"

    "Do you know that the divine remedy that you''re looking for is actually a fake and is nothing but a bait for you to be hooked into?" Xue Qianxue giggled softly.

    Yuan Ji: !!!

    He was stunned, "It is a fake? How is it possible?"

    Xue Qianxue winked at him with several teasing chuckles before she nodded lightly, "Have you ever considered the fact that why should a female sect like the Celestial Orthodox Sect actually have a divine remedy that can grow a man''s beard? Isn''t that such a strange thing?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He had really never thought of that before¡­

    All of a sudden he felt extremely stupid.

    Instead of fixing Xia Jiajia, he had only found out that Xia Jiajia and Xue Qianxue were actually in cahoots with each other to fix him.

    He could only mutter bitterly, "Why did I have toe here for? The truth hurts more and more."

    In the end, he was nowhere near to unravel who Xia Jiajia was.

    So he could only say bitterly to Xue Qianxue, "Why did the two of you fix me up for?"

    At least before he died, he would have the answers.

    But Xue Qianxue chuckled, "The two of us? Are you sure that it is only just the two of us?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    There were actually more conspirers than he had thought?!

    Xue Qianxue said nonchntly, "We have prepared three sets of ns for you to fall into. In the end, you didn''t exactly follow the script."

    Three sets of ns?!

    Yuan Ji was startled, "I don''t remember having a feud with you, right? Why did you want to set me up for?"

    Then he said bitterly, "If I''m not wrong, then the start of the n begins with the banquet with my beautiful bearded brothers."

    It was because he had already known that Li Yi was the one that had set him up with Xia Jiajia.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "You are so smart!"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "So everything is an act? What do you want to get from me?"

    Xue Qianxue winked at him, "You still don''t get it? Why did I ask you to shave off your beard?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Surely you didn''t n all these just to ask me to shave off my beautiful beard?"

    Xue Qianxue giggled for some time before she nodded with great delight, "Of course we did that just to get your beard."

    Yuan Ji was rendered speechless by her, "Did my beautiful beard have a feud with you or something?"

    Xue Qianxue refused to answer him and instead she was looking at him intently.

    Finally Yuan Ji heaved a heavy sigh, "So how are you going to deal with me?"

    Xue Qianxue immediately snapped her fingers loud and returned him a heart melting wink, "You will soon know your fate."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Don''t say I didn''t warn you first. If I didn''t turn up for my duel with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, then I''m afraid the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will wipe out your puny Celestial Orthodox Sect next."

    To think that he had to use the Hundred Flower Divine Pce as his trump card now.

    Xue Qianxue replied coldly, "What if the Hundred Flower Divine Pce doesn''t know that you''re even here?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I have heard that Pce Master Yuan Ji is in seclusion now to prepare himself for the duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. So how can he be here at the same time?" Xue Qianxue winked coyly at him as sheughed jovially.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Did I just screw myself to a dead end¡­"

 Chapter 36 Xue Qianxue

    Xue Qianxue was giggling to herself as she yed with the scented flowers of her bath pool. She was really delighted because she had finally captured Ji Yuan and right now he was her prisoner.

    She was now looking dreamily into the reflection of the pool as she recalled the time when Ji Yuan had identally dropped into her bathtub and giving her a shock that she could not erased from her memory.

    She quietly held onto her bosoms as she remembered his light touches on her¡­

    And the time that she had a fall from the cliff and Ji Yuan had caught hold of her¡­

    And the silly look that was on his face when she had angrily dered to him that he must shave off his beard and deliver his portrait to her in three days¡­

    She remembered how he had tripped on the floor as he made his getaway from her¡­

    She dreamily reyed these scenes over and over again as she muttered silently, "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan¡­"

    Her alluring eyes were now shing as she muttered, "I wonder did I give him such a fright that he is going to hate me forever? Actually I did not mean to frighten him but I was too excited to see him again."

    "I wonder what his impression of me is?"

    "Should I exin to him?"

    "Maybe I should have let him calm down first?"

    "You have delivered yourself to me after a hundred years¡­finally¡­"

    "The Great Poet Ji Yuan is truly as dashing as the rumors have said. His beardless self is the most beautiful sight in the world¡­"

    Then she was giggling softly, "Ling Feiyue. I''ve captured the Great Poet Ji Yuan ahead of you. If you know about this, I bet that you will jump down to the deste mists below the mountains. But don''t worry, I will never let you know nor will I give you the chance to rescue him¡­"

    Again she began to recall the scene when Ji Yuan had caught hold of her body as she fell down from the tall cliff. At that time she was quite teary. Although the fall would not kill her or even cause her anysting injuries, after all she was protected by her golden body but she would be aughing stock in front of Ling Feiyue.

    When he had caught hold of her in mid-air, her heart was suddenly beating very fast.

    It was then that she had realized that she had truly fallen in love with Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had put her down gently before he had fled the scene hastily.

    She had tried to call out his name after she had regained her wits but it was already toote. Even if he had heard, he would not stop because she knew that he was afraid of them and that he had broken a taboo by observing her duel with Ling Feiyue.

    She did try to track him down by going to the Orthodox Sword Sect to look for him but what she had found out was shocking; Ji Yuan had already handed over his sect leader position and he would be attempting his seventh realm level breakthrough in a secret location.

    She had not thought that her actions would actually force him to take a gambit for an attempt breakthrough to the sacred saint level.

    Since that day, she had been having constant nightmares at the thought that she may have killed Ji Yuan indirectly.

    But now she could finally sleep and dream in peace.

    It was because Ji Yuan was still alive and the best part was, he seemed to have lost his beard too.

    -

    -

    -

    Behind the bath chamber curtains, a few of the holy maidens were already standing for hours as they waited for the Sacred Maiden and they were whispering among themselves.

    "Weird, I have never seen our Sacred Maiden so happy like today."<sub> </sub>

    "You must know that the happier our Sacred Maiden is, the longer she will stay in the pool. She has been in there for three hours now. This is a new record¡­"

    "I''ve heard that she has news of Ji Yuan today."

    "From that handsome man that hase today?"

    "I''m new here. That Ji Yuan is someone that our Sacred Maiden hates? I''ve heard that there is a huge bounty on his head."

    "Probably. Sometimes when our Sacred Maiden has a nightmare, she will call out his name."

    "When she is smiling in her sleep too, she will also call out his name¡­"

    "So does she hates him or not?"

    "Who is this Ji Yuan?"

    "You don''t know? He has the title of the most beautiful bearded cultivator and I''ve heard that before he got his beard, he was also the most beautiful handsome cultivator."

    "How can anyone be beautiful and handsome at the same time?"

    "Did you see that dashing man thates today?"

    "He is handsome and beautiful at the same time."

    "Heh, I will like to know his name too¡­"

    "Our Sacred Maiden only locks him up and did nothing to him?"

    "But I feel that the other young masters are equally handsome too. I don''t understand why our Sacred Maiden has a fixation on anyone or even that Ji Yuan."

    "You may not know this but Ji Yuan is also known as the Great Poet Ji Yuan. He has talent¡­"

    "You''re all wrong! I''ve served our Sacred Maiden far longer than any one of you. She hates this Ji Yuan actually."

    "Oh?"

    "Tell us about it¡­"

    "Have you heard of poem that is titled, Two Goddess and My Beautiful Beard?"

    "Oh that! I thought that it is such a good poem?"

    "The fluttering snow as white as the Goddess Maiden Qianxue and the spirit songs as vivid as the Goddess Maiden Feiyue. To have the two beautiful goddesses to dance with the strokes of my beautiful beard is as heavenly as the sight of the immortal fairies."

    "This poem is actually lewd. He is stroking our Sacred Maiden with his hands¡­"

    "I didn''t think that way¡­"

    "Now you know why she hates this Ji Yuan?"

    "This Ji Yuan is courting his own death!"

    "Yes, he deserves death for such a lewd poem!"

    "He dares to stroke our Sacred Maiden? He is simply having a death wish!"

 Chapter 37 Friend Or Foe? (1)

    At this moment Yuan Ji was now locked in a dark room and he was feeling very cold.

    He had spent the whole night circting his profound energies within his soul sea to resist the chilling cold that was afflicted to him by Xue Qianxue.

    He had not expected that her Sacred Maiden Profound Art would be this formidable. He had literally spent the whole night trying to dissipate her profound energies that were afflicting him.

    Normally he had no problem purging the deviation energies of his opponents because he was an expert sword energies practitioner. But her profound art was proving to be difficult for him to dissipate.

    Therefore he ended up cursing her silently the entire night.

    "She is an orthodox cultivator and yet she had attacked me without giving me any warning. Where is her martial code of honor? Is she still an iron blood man?"

    "Never mind about that iron blood man part, she is a maiden¡­she is only a despicable orthodox cultivator¡­if it is a one to one fair fight¡­never mind that too, she probably can thrash me as well¡­"

    While he was cursing her, he was also sighing heavily at the same time.

    It was because he had thought that he would make use of Xue Qianxue to take his vendetta on Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue. But his n had backfired because he had never thought that Xia Jiajia and Xue Qianxue were in the plot against him together.

    He was not afraid of death but he had two beautiful consorts and countless number of innocents that were at the Five Heavens Peaks that would be ughtered by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce if he did not turn up for his duel with their old master.

    He did not expect Xue Qianxue to forgive him after what he had done to sully her honor.

    "Guo Taiming! You really got me into a fine fix this time. Even if I have be a ghost, I will not spare you."

    He knew by now that it was his poem that had got him into this fine mess.

    He could onlyment with deep mncholy, "Why did I have to create this ursed poem?"

    But he was soon frowning, "Xue Qianxue, Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue are all seventh realm saintess. I am merely a lowly sixth realm supremacy back then. Do they even need to go one big round just to ''fix me''?"

    The more that he had thought of it, the more perplexed he was.

    "This doesn''t make any sense at all."

    "I''m very sure that Ling Feiyue is out to get Xue Qianxue. It is because it is impossible for them to know that I will pop up during their secret duel. I don''t even know that I will show up either because I was lost in the mountains."

    "Oh no!" He was startled by a sudden thought.

    "They are not out to get me but to get Xue Qianxue. I am merely a pawn for them to get rid of her. If I am not mistaken, she must have fallen into their clever stratagem as well."

    "In a game of chess, the final objective is always to get the king. I''m definitely not the king but Xue Qianxue is. Xue Qianxue may think that she is smart but her opponents are smarter."

    "Should I tell her about it?"

    "She probably won''t believe me. Before I can see her again to exin, I will probably be killed by her."

    "I don''t believe that they are after my worthless beard but their main objective is actually the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue."

    "But what is the connection?"

    He suddenly remembered the words of wisdom that his old master had once taught him. "Don''t be fooled by the webs of deceits. The more you look into it, the more is the entanglement. Look at the keys and then guess the oue."

    "Xue Qianxue, Celestial Orthodox Sect, me¡­"

    "That''s it! What if I don''t turn up for the duel? Then the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will have an excuse to exterminate the Celestial Orthodox Sect¡­"

    "Xue Qianxue! This time, you''re really in trouble!" Yuan Ji gasped aloud.

    "I will be in trouble?" A sweet voice asked.

    Yuan Ji had suddenly turned ashen.

    It was because he had recognized Xue Qianxue''s voice.

    Indeed it was Xue Qianxue as she unlocked the cell door and entered through it.

    "You are cursing me?" Xue Qianxue lit a lovely smile when she saw him.

    Yuan Ji could sniff her light fragrance immediately. It was a light fragrance that he could still remember after a hundred years.

    He thought, "She must have just taken a bath¡­"

    But he quickly said bitterly, "I dare not."

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly as she disyed a dozen sks of heavenly wines, "Care to have a drink with me?"<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Drink with you?"

    Xue Qianxue winked at him, "What? Are you afraid that I may drug the wine?"

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly as he took one of the wine sks and started to gulp a mouthful. "This, I am not worried because I am already in your hands."

    Xue Qianxue was suddenly chuckling nonstop before she eximed with a wry smile, "Actually I have drugged the wines and you''ve fallen for it."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    This time Yuan Ji was truly angry. He immediately stood up and shouted at the top of his voice, "You''re such a vicious maiden! You call yourself an orthodox cultivator and the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, yet you are not adverse to using drugs¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was startled by his outburst as she interrupted him with a hurtful look, "I''m only teasing you. Why did you have to raise your voice against me? Just because you got a loud voice, you think you can raise it in such an unruly manner? Yes, there is a drug in the wines but it is only a tonic medicine to purge the chills that are afflicting you."

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes before he said awkwardly, "I''m sorry. I shouldn''t have shouted at you. It is just that I¡­"

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "It is just that you are upset with me, am I right?"

    Yuan Ji nodded slowly before he said firmly, "Indeed!"

    Xue Qianxue averted her eyes as she sat quietly next to him, "Indeed you have the right."

    Yuan Ji was startled when she had suddenly sat next to him. In fact, she was so near that he could feel theforting warmth of her body.

    But he said bitterly, "What is the point of saying all these? I am already in your hands. But let me go. I promise you that if you let me go, I will return to this ce after my duel and will allow you to deal with me in any manner you please."

    Xue Qianxue hummed softly, "Do you think that you will be alive after your duel for me to deal with you? For your own good, you should stay here until the time of the duel is over."

    Yuan Ji replied coldly, "What for? By then, all my love ones will be dead. What is the point of hiding in the shadows? I will rather be the only one that is killed than any of my love ones."

    Xue Qianxue was trembling lightly, "I''ve heard that you have recently married two consorts. One of them is the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi. You must have loved them a lot."

    Yuan Ji replied proudly, "I do."

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly to herself. "Maybe if I didn''t y that trick on you a hundred years ago, it will be just the two of us. But now, it is toote for regrets."

    She said quietly without looking at him, "I can let you go but only on two conditions."

    Yuan Ji was startled. She was willing to let him go?

    But he quickly asked, "Which two?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled quietly, "Firstly, you will finish up all these wines with me tonight. Secondly, you will be willing to befriend me."

    Yuan Ji was startled by her two conditions. "It is so simple? Then why did you set me up for?"

    Xue Qianxue replied shyly, "Nothing. My reasons are not important anymore. So what do you think?"

    Yuan Ji sighed as he looked away, "I''ve no reasons to decline your two conditions. In fact, I wee it."

    "Good! Let''s give a toast to our friendship then!" Xue Qianxue giggled.

    "Alright then!" Yuan Ji said.

    As they turned their heads at the same time, all of a sudden they had knocked their heads together and their lips had touched.

    Yuan Ji was bbergasted as he thought, "I''m dead again¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was flustered and she was trembling lightly.

    The two of them did not move immediately but were dumbfounded on the spot.

    Yuan Ji''s heart was pounding very fast. "Her lips are so tender and sweet¡­"

    Xue Qianxue''s heart was also pounding very fast and it took all her will to pull herself away from him in a flustered manner. "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Yuan Ji was now panicky exining, "No wait! Listen to me! This is an ident! I don''t know why whenever I am around you, all sorts of clumsy idents happen. But I swear that this is really an ident too! I swear by my soul sea¡­"

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly put her fingers on his lips, "I''ve changed my mind now. I don''t want to be just friends with you."

    All of a sudden the two of them were looking dreamily at each other.

    Yuan Ji was struggling with all his willpower against her heart melting golden eyes, "You must never touch her. You can touch all the maidens in the celestial fraternity except for her. Because if you do, you will not only ruin her but you will be the enemy of all the young masters of the celestial fraternity. Therefore you must stay very calm¡­"

 Chapter 38 Friend Or Foe? (2)

    Under a normal circumstance, Yuan Ji would never dare to touch Xue Qianxue. It was because he did not want to die without even knowing why. It may even be a plot to test his integrity for all he knows.

    But Xue Qianxue was really too peerless whether it was in her looks or her enticing heart-melting eyes. Moreover he had to recall the time that he had seen her naked in her bathtub.

    That was usually how most lowly cultivators would die for not able to control their lower body especially when the target was a seventh realm saintess.

    "Since I am about to die one way or another, I may as well kiss the number one goddess in the orthodox fraternity a few more times¡­"

    The thought that he would be killed by the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce in six months'' time gave him the extra motivation...

    And so Yuan Ji had suddenly pressed himself onto Xue Qianxue as he kissed her passionately, half expecting for her to suddenly retaliate and kill him with a single blow. Instead she was moaning softly and inhaling deeply at his every tiny touch.

    When he saw that Xue Qianxue was actually closing her eyes and surrendering to his attacks, his actions got more and more outrageous; he had already started to fondle her and he had even loosened her silk belt.

    He could see that Xue Qianxue was looking at him with deep flushes on her cheeks but she did not make a move to resist him.

    Therefore he got even bolder and started to remove her silk robe from her until he was now staring at her thin body lingerie that covered her beautiful curves.

    He began to inhale deeply as he reached into her skirt to pull down her inner pants.

    "She didn''t resist? Is she going to let me continue in this manner?"

    Xue Qianxue was averting her eyes shyly and she did not dare to look into his eyes. She could only rebuke him silently. "Ji Yuan, how dare you vite me! In the past it is with your eyes and now it is with your hands¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping softly; it was because Yuan Ji had loosened her body lingerie and had lifted up her skirt at the same time.

    Yuan Ji was also gasping. All his hidden thoughts and caution hadpletely vanished when he saw her divine body that was spread out in front of him.

    His heart was pounding extremely hard; Xue Qianxue was really too beautiful. From her beautiful shy countenance, to her twin peaks and to her maiden''s forbidden ground.

    He was gasping silently as he looked below her body, "She is really a white tiger. I''ve made a lucky guess at that time¡­"

    But before he knows it, he was already pressing upon Xue Qianxue and he was already stripping hastily.

    When their passionate battle had ended, it was many hourster.

    Xue Qianxue was now cuddling onto Yuan Ji and she was looking coquettishly at him.

    Yuan Ji was also looking sentimentally at her. He could not believe that he had actually captured the number one goddess in the orthodox fraternity and she had actually lost her chastity to him.

    Was this a dream?

    Until now, he could not believe it.

    Was he under a spell of delusion like thest time he had with Fairy Ye Chengxi?

    But it felt so real, especially when he had run through her divine body¡­

    It had to be a dream right? Because the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue would never fall in love with him¡­

    "You must be wondering why." Xue Qianxue shyly said.

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly, half afraid that this wonderful dream would burst at any time and that it was only a delusion.

    He muttered, "Why did you set me up for? And now¡­"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "And now we are lovers? You mustn''t let me down or else I won''t spare you. No matter where you are I will hunt you down."

    Then she quickly averted her nces, "Actually I have admired you for a long time."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he blinked his eyes with disbelief, "You have admired me for a long time?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded shyly, "I have long heard of the Great Poet Ji Yuan."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I''m truly sorry that it is my poem that has offended you."

    Xue Qianxue inhaled softly as she used her fingers to caress his chest, "What if I tell you that I am actually not offended by it?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I don''t believe." Heughed weakly.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "You don''t believe me?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You can tell me about it first."

    He could not resist adding, "From the beginning."

    Now that he had conquered Xue Qianxue, would she be willing to tell him the truth?

    Xue Qianxue inhaled softly before she quietly said, "One day, I was in the study room and I was¡­"

    She had suddenly giggled, "I was reciting some of your great works when Xia Jiajia had approached me out of the blue."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he interrupted, "In your study room? How is it possible? Isn''t the Celestial Orthodox Sect heavily guarded?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "That is what I''ve thought too. I was actually startled as well. As she was an intruder therefore I had attacked her. However after exchanging thirty strokes with her, she managed to persuade me to listen to her exnation."

    Yuan Ji really could not believe what he was hearing. Xia Jiajia had actually exchanged thirty strokes with a middle tier seventh realm saintess and she had dared to enter the forbidden grounds of the Celestial Sword Sect.

    "She told me that she knew of my iing duel with Ling Feiyue and that¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was giggling again, "And that she knew that the Great Poet Ji Yuan would be in the nearby vicinity as well. Therefore she offered to help me to fix a meeting with you."

    She began to look shyly away, "I asked her how and she told me that we can make use of your poem the Two Goddesses and My Beautiful Beard to¡­"

    "Promise me that you won''t get upset?" Xue Qianxue had suddenly asked him as she gave him a heart-melting look.

    Yuan Ji began to smile bitterly, "I won''t." But he was cursing silently. "Qianxue, I didn''t know that you can be so gullible and can fall into a clever disguised ruse just like this." All of a sudden he was smiling secretly. "Never mind, her gullible is a good thing. In the end, she has fallen into my hands instead¡­"

    "She offered me a n to get rid of your beautiful beard." Xue Qianxue was quietly looking at Yuan Ji, waiting for him to get angry with her. She inhaled a soft sign of relief when she saw that Yuan Ji was still asposed as ever.

    How could Yuan Ji be upset at her at this time? He was too busy fondling her naked body that was in his embrace to do petty things like losing his temper.

    "I''m really curious to know how you look like without your beard. That is why I''ve agreed to go along with her n." She shyly looked away before adding. "I''ve heard that the Great Poet Ji Yuan is really a dashing man. Today, I have finally known what you really look like without your beard."

    Yuan Jiughed softly before he shamelessly said, "I''ve always known that I am a dashing man¡­"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted him as she winked at him, "Unfortunately that is not true at all. You are not in the least bit dashing at all. I really regret plotting against you."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He had just got face pped by her remarks.

    Xue Qianxue was lying of course. It was because she was too shy to admit that Yuan Ji had met all her expectations and more.<sub> </sub>

    What she had told Yuan Ji was not the whole truth too but a watered down version. However, it was as close to the truth as she had said it.

    Xia Jiajia had told her, "I have heard that there is a one and only portrait of the beardless Great Poet Ji Yuan in the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. If you want to know his beardless look, I do have a stratagem for you to force him to shave off his beard. But I wonder if Sacred Maiden Xue is willing to go along with this n of mine?"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly asked Xue Qianxue, "Erm, since you are not in cahoots with Xia Jiajia, why did you lie to me earlier?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "I like to see if I am able to provoke the Gentleman of the Sword."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Well you have seeded." He was forced to admit. In fact, he was jumping up and down earlier.

    He quickly asked, "Do you know who Xia Jiajia is? What is her background?"

    Xue Qianxue shook her head, "She is on par with my level."

    After a short pause, she added quietly. "Maybe more."

    Then she looked mncholy at him, "She is so beautiful. So you miss her?"

    Yuan Ji''s heart almost stopped when she was suddenly looking and questioning him just like this. Therefore he decided to tell a white lie. It was because he did not think it was wise to tell her that he had actually liked Jiajia the most and that they even had a hundred year pledge with each other.

    He quickly replied, "Do you know that she is actually Xia Jiaqing?"

    Xue Qianxue was gasping, "She is one of the four great celestial beauties? Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing? I really did not know."

    Then she lowered her woeful nces, "I''ve heard that she is missing now and that you have taken over as Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect. So you have thought that I may know her and that is why you havee to look for me?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "She is still so persistent in her questionings¡­" He thought.

    So he had decided to tell another white lie. "I''ve actuallye to warn you about a plot against you and your Celestial Orthodox Sect. Most important of all, I''ve been thinking of you for over a hundred years and I''vee specially to see you."

    Xue Qianxue was gasping softly, "Really?"

    Yuan Ji nodded firmly, "Really."

    Xue Qianxue frowned lightly when she had suddenly noticed that Yuan Ji''s heart was beating very fast. "Why is your heart beating so fast?"

    "Erm, it is because a most beautiful maiden is resting on me and she is not wearing anything."

    "You''re such a badass¡­" Xue Qianxue was suddenly giggling as she gave him a painless hit with her hand on his chest.

    Yuan Ji was thinking, "Whew. I am safe now?"

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue was looking at him intently, "Do you know Ling Feiyue?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was gasping silently. At this point of time, he had to be very tactful with his words.

    "I don''t know her at all. As a matter of fact, I''ve a feud to settle with her." He began to say with great righteousness.

    "You don''t know her and yet you have a feud with her?" Xue Qianxue asked him suspiciously.

    Yuan Ji pretended to sigh heavily, "You should know. I was setup by Xia Jiajia and Ling Feiyue. They are plotting to get you and I am the victim."

    Xue Qianxue paused to ponder, "But even then¡­"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes. Somehow he got a feeling that one of these days, he would be killed by Xue Qianxue, Xia Jiajia or Ling Feiyue. But the most pressing one was how to answer Xue Qianxue''s questions.

    He hade to find Xue Qianxue to answer his many questions but now he had found out that he was actually answering to her many questions instead.

    It seemed that they were both victims of a deeper conspiracy.

    And it seemed that in order to find Xia Jiajia and to find out who she was, he had to find Ling Feiyue first.

    All of a sudden he decided on a way to keep Xue Qianxue quiet; he had suddenly grabbed her gentle and he had forced her to bend forward, "Qianxue, you''re too beautiful and I''ve not got enough of you. Let me saddle you¡­"

    Just as Xue Qianxue was nodding shyly to him, a dozen bright lights had blinked into the dark cell as several prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Sword Sect had entered through the imprisonment array.

    "Punishment Elder! You see! One of the holy maidens has secretly visited the prisoner and now they are having their dirty business here¡­"

    "This holy maiden is really daring!"

    "We can even hear the sounds of their dirty love making from outside the imprisonment array¡­"

    "Cripple both their cultivation soul sea!"

    "How dare they defile the sacred grounds of the Celestial Sword Sect¡­"

    "We must let the Sacred Maiden know immediately and request for her to melt down the harshest punishment on these two adulterous pair!"

    All of a sudden the dozen holy maidens and high ranking elders were stunned by the view in front of them!

    Their Sacred Maiden waspletely naked in front of them and Yuan Ji was ''riding'' her when they had suddenly appeared within the imprisonment array.

    "Our Sacred Maiden is here¡­"

    "This beast of a man¡­"

    "Kill him!"

    "Did he¡­did he¡­."

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned. "No wait! This is a misunderstanding!"

    Xue Qianxue was weeping all of a sudden. It was because she had now lost all her repute in front of the elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Sword Sect.

    Although she was the sect''s Sacred Maiden but she was not above the strictws of the Celestial Sword Sect. The punishments of the sect''s senior elders and the Matriarch Sacred Maiden woulde swiftly to her.

    Yuan Ji quickly seized a robe to cover Xue Qianxue before he said gravely, "Yes, I''ve vited the Sacred Maiden. I am the beast of a man. This is a fitting punishment to her for trying to imprison me here."

    "Seize him! What are you all waiting for?" The Punishment Elder shouted to the holy maidens.

    Xue Qianxue gasped silently as she shook her head, "Ji Yuan, no. You will surely die¡­"

    But Yuan Ji returned her a silent nod. "Qianxue, I am happy to know you even if it is so brief. You are the most beautiful and most adorable maiden that I''ve ever known. I shall bear the blunt of this shameful act."

    With another sigh, he muttered. "Good bye my Yan''Er, Chengxi and...Jiajia."

    Today was the execution date of Yuan Ji and he was now being dragged to the execution tform of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    The execution ceremony was attended by some three hundreds golden celestials and an additional five hundred holy maidens who were serving as attendants.

    Xue Qianxue was now watching quietly as Yuan Ji was being dragged to the execution tform and it pained her to see that Yuan Ji was whipped into a bloody mess.

    It had been three weeks since they were caught in a forbidden affair and today was the first time that she was allowed to see Yuan Ji again but only from afar.

    Next to her were the Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi and several Matriarch Elders of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Unofficially Xue Qianxue had been removed from all her duties as Sacred Maiden and a new Sacred Maiden would be selected in her ce.

    The punishment melted to her was also harsh; she would be confined in the Celestial Orthodox Sect for the rest of her life and a profound signature ced on her to track her every single movement. At the same time she would be denied ess to all the sect''s cultivation resources and also had all her contribution points confiscated.

    Her punishment only had one goal; she would be making penances to the Celestial Orthodox Sect for the rest of her life without getting a single contribution point.

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden and the Matriarch Elders had sworn everyone to secrecy on the affair between Xue Qianxue and Yuan Ji.

    To most of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and to the outsiders, they would dere that Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue would be giving up her sectarian leader position to whole-heartedly pursue the Great Dao and she would be in a permanent seclusion as she delved into the mysteries of the final sacred saint level.

    But Xue Qianxue did not care for any of these. She only cared for Ji Yuan and she did not regret her passionate night with Ji Yuan.

    She was now moving her trembling fingers to her belly. With great mncholy, she silently sighed, "Ji Yuan, I''ll protect our child and I will avenge you¡­"

    While Ji Yuan had wrapped his robe around her, he whispered quietly to her. "Ruse."

    It was only then she had realized that there was someone who was out to get her in the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    It was because she had secured the imprisonment array that was housing Ji Yuan before she had entered. So how was it possible for anyone to hear their noises from the outside?

    It was obvious to her that someone had secretly weakened the imprisonment array while she had entered into it to visit Ji Yuan.

    A secret enemy of hers was nning to oust her and it was not a coincidence that they were caught.

    But who was she?

    However she knew that it was not the Matriarch Sacred Maiden who was her prot¨¦g¨¦ master and celestial teacher. She knew that she had disappointed her prot¨¦g¨¦ master and had failed her miserably.

    After the execution of Yuan Ji, the Matriarch Sacred Maiden would be announcing the appointment of a new Sacred Maiden to lead the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Who the new candidate was, even Xue Qianxue did not know. After all, she was in confinement all this while.

    Many of the holy maidens in the Celestial Orthodox Sect did not know why the Matriarch Sacred Maiden had ended her seclusion and was now running the sect again.

    It was like Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had suddenly ''disappeared''.

    Right now Yuan Ji was being shackled to a towering pir that was in the middle of the execution tform as he faced his final execution.

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden rose to proim, "This evil cultivator here actually has the guts to steal from the Celestial Orthodox Sect. His punishment thereby is death by the golden tribtion lightning. As for his name and celestial n of origin, we do not know yet."

    Xue Qianxue was trembling hard now; they had all known that he was Yuan Ji and he was the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect but the Celestial Orthodox Sect had chosen not to disclose it.

    Of course they would not disclose that he was Yuan Ji because the Celestial Orthodox Sect would not want the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to know about it.

    The golden tribtion lightning was simr to the six-stage golden lightning tribtion that was taken by saints that aspired to be great saints as they breakthrough to the upper sacred saint level.  A single strike by the golden tribtion lightning would instantly kill any cultivator that was below the seventh realm level.

    That would mean that her Ji Yuan would die immediately.

    Xue Qianxue was now staring nkly at Yuan Ji, "Only I know that you are actually Ji Yuan. Why must our meeting be sote and have such a regretful end? Ji Yuan, I swear that I will find the person that has plotted us to this end and I will kill her to avenge you."

    Yuan Ji was not surprised by what he had heard but there was no way he could protest against the trump up charges. It was because his voice had been sealed by his captors.

    He had been expecting the death sentence toe for weeks and the day of his reckoning had finallye.

    But he was not bitter about it.<sub> </sub>

    It was because he saw that Xue Qianxue was looking at him and that alone gave him the courage. "Qianxue, I''m sorry that I have known you sote and I can''t unravel the whole truth. Be strong and don''t fall into your opponents'' tricks again."

    He had finally realized that Xue Qianxue was actually their target.

    He heaved a deep sigh, "Yan''Er, Chengxi¡­I love the two of you too. I am sorry that I am unable to return now and that you will have to pay for your lives in my ce."

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi said coldly, "Unleash the golden tribtion lightning array now."

    Immediately twenty golden celestials from all around the execution tform had raised their precious swords high up to the heavens as they began to channel their profound strength together.

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Farewell Qianxue, Yan''Er, Chengxi¡­and Jiajia¡­"

    "Hold!"

    All of a sudden two lovely young maidens had shed to the middle of the tform, startling everyone!

    Yuan Ji was startled too because he had recognized the two lovely maidens were from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. "Why are they here?"

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi said coldly, "Who are you? How dare you barge into the Celestial Orthodox Sect. Holy maidens, seize them!"

    The lovely maiden standing on the right side of Yuan Ji began to giggle softly, "I''m Hua Wuwu and this is my sister Hua Baiyue. Who are we? We''re naturally from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    When Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi heard that they were from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, she immediately said. "Hold!"

    Hua Wuwu pointed to Yuan Ji who was being chained to the towering pir. "And this is Pce Master Yuan Ji. He has a duel with our old master in 4 months'' time. Therefore you cannot take his life without the permission of my old master."

    Hua Baiyue giggled, "My sister is right. Anyone that dares to take his life shall be an enemy of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    A Matriarch Elder angrily said, "Do you really think that we are afraid of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce? If you make an enemy out of the Celestial Orthodox Sect then I''m afraid that you will be making an enemy out of the seven major orthodox ns at the same time as well!"

    Another Matriarch Elder hummed coldly, "Even if the two of you are seventh realm experts, how are you going to fight thirty saintesses that are here today? You are simply courting your own deaths!"

    Hua Wuwu winked, "Even if we can''t outfight you, at least we can have a couple of you as ourpanions in the Nethends. It is still worth it.

    "We are taking Yuan Ji away today. Make your choice!" Hua Baiyue said coldly and her malevolent air could be sensed by everyone.

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi hummed coldly, "So you are saying that he does not need to pay for his crimes against the Celestial Orthodox Sect?"

    Hua Wuwu had put her hands on her belly as sheughed jovially, "We are not deaf and we have heard of you proiming his crime loud and clear. So what did he steal from the Celestial Orthodox Sect then? The Hundred Flower Divine Pce will pay double aspensation to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. What do you say?"

    Hua Baiyue winked and chuckled, "Sister, it is a lucky thing that Yuan Ji''s crime is only some petty theft. If he deflowers Xue Qianxue or several holy maidens then there is nothing that our Hundred Flower Divine Pce can do about it."

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Even Yuan Ji was rendered speechless by Hua Baiyue as he muttered silently, "Is she joking or she already knows what I''ve done?"

    All of a sudden a holy maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect had shed in front of Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as she swung her sword at them.

    When her sword was swung, a powerful rippling profound force could be felt by everyone.

    Because Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were at where the rippling shockwaves were the strongest, they were quickly forced to take three steps backward.

    "Who are you? You dare to raise your sword against a divine messenger of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?" Hua Wuwu hummed coldly as she disyed her sword.

    "Sister, her profound strength is in the middle tier of the seventh realm sacred saint level." Hua Baiyue whispered to her sister. "Her profound strength is slightly above us."

    "Who am I?" The holy maiden that had attacked them hummed coldly. "I''m Zhao Songjin the next Sacred Maiden. I alone will be able to handle the two of you."

    Xue Qianxue had a light tremble as she stared at the beautiful back of Zhao Songjin, "Is she the one?"

 Chapter 40 Saint Vs. Saint

    Zhao Songjin had made another attack on Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue but this time the two sisters had matched her profound sword attack with equal ferocity.

    In another blink of an eye, they had exchanged several dazzling disy of their sword strokes.

    But all of a sudden it seemed that the Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had the upper hand as they shed against Zhao Songjin to her left and right with the same exact swordy.

    Zhao Songjin gasped softly as she took several steps back to disengage from them, "Dual swordy?"

    Yuan Ji who was observing the fight was also startled that the swordy of Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue was actually so good. "They havebined their speed attacks with this unique sword y of theirs. Even though this Zhao Songjin has the superior profound strength but she will not be gaining any advantage against them unless she can break their swordy."

    All of a sudden Zhao Songjin was smiling as she danced out of the way from the attacks of Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    "Why did you stop now?" Hua Wuwu hummed coldly. "Or are you afraid?"

    Zhao Songjin chuckled softly, "It is because it is unnecessary now."

    All of a sudden a golden lightning had streaked from the heavens above and had suddenly struck the towering metal pir that Yuan Ji was being chained into.

    There was a bright thunderous golden sh as the towering pir exploded its shockwave throughout the execution pir.

    Zhao Songjin chuckled, "It is because it won''t be necessary for us to fight anymore."

    With that she nodded quietly at the Matriarch Sacred Maiden.

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden had secretly ordered the celestial array to continue because no matter what had happened, Yuan Ji must die and the disgraceful thing that he had done to Xue Qianxue must never be revealed to anyone.

    In the meantime Hua Baiyue had quickly flown to the charcoal Yuan Ji and had cut off his shackles as she quickly examined his injuries before gasping, "He¡­is dead¡­"

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi smiled coldly, "Of course he is dead. No one below the sacred saint realm can survive a hit from the golden lightning. Even if he is a saint, he may not survive too."

    Then she added. "Since the two of you are from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, I can close one eye to your transgression this time round. But! There will be no next time. Leave now."

    Hua Baiyue hummed coldly, "You''ve dared to kill a man that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce has wanted. The Hundred Flower Divine Pce will never forget this slight!"

    Zhao Songjin interrupted her with a cold scoff, "You''re mistaken. It is you who hase toote to stop the execution. If you have spoken more nicely maybe this time would not happen at all. You have better leave now. The rest of my prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters may not treat this transgression too kindly."

    Hua Baiyue hummed coldly as she carried the body of Yuan Ji with her both arms. "Sister, let''s go!"

    Hua Wuwu nodded and the two lovely young maidens had disappeared in just a few blinks of an eye as they sped swiftly away.

    Zhao Songjin had secretly stolen a nce at where Xue Qianxue was before she smiled slyly, "You have only yourself to me for giving us such a good handle against yourself. In term of cultivation level, I am in no way inferior to you but you have the good blessings to be the Sacred Maiden while I am pushed aside. From now onward, I shall be the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and shall be privy to the Sacred Maiden Profound Art."

    Xue Qianxue''s silent wet tears had flowed down her cheeks. "Ji Yuan, may the heavens watch over your soul..."

    -

    -

    -

    "Senior Sister, what shall we do? We have failed in our mission. Our Divine Pce Master will surely be unhappy with us." Hua Baiyue smiled bitterly.

    Hua Wuwu returned a deep sigh. "We have been around the Celestial Orthodox Sect for three weeks but we cannot find where he was. Therefore we can only act on the day of the execution. To think that they will want him dead so fast. We are s¡­a little toote."

    After they had left the Celestial Orthodox Sect, they had quickly found a nearby cave and now they were discussing their next course of action.

    "Let''s pile some rocks at the entrance of this cave. This shall be Yuan Ji''s tomb." Hua Baiyue suggested.

    "This is a great idea¡­" Hua Wuwu nodded.

    All of a sudden she had stopped and had turned around to give Yuan Ji a hard kick, causing Yuan Ji to cough out aloud.

    "Howe you are not dead yet?" She said coldly.

    Hua Baiyue was startled as she looked at Yuan Ji, "You are not dead yet? Why didn''t you say so?"

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly as he blinked his eyes at the two lovely young maidens. "I didn''t even know I can speak again so how can I tell you?"

    He had regained his consciousness earlier and had used a control heart technique to conceal his life pulses after he had suddenly realized that he was now alone with the two lovely young saintesses.

    His n was a simple one. As soon as they had left then he would revive himself. He did not want to fall into their hands as the ruthlessness of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower was well known.

    But he had never thought that Hua Wuwu''s divine sense could be so sensitive to his tiny heartbeat.

    Hua Baiyue was smiling now, "So he is not dead! Great!"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "I am not feeling great at all."<sub> </sub>

    Hua Baiyue was suddenly frowning. "He is eavesdropping on us¡­"

    Hua Wuwu shot him with a perplexed look. "Weird. Howe he isn''t dead yet?"

    All of a sudden she had reached out to grab Yuan Ji''s hands but Yuan Ji quickly returned a defensive stance as he parried off her fingers.

    This caused Hua Wuwu to take a step back with a soft gasp, "You are actually a seventh realm golden saint?!"

    Yuan Ji was startled as well. When he had exercised his profound strength to fight off Hua Wuwu, he could feel that his profound strength had actually returned. No, it was not his sealed profound strength that had returned but his entire soul sea was now vibrating with profound energies of the seventh realm level.

    "I''ve regained my profound strength to my peak?" Yuan Ji was astonished. "How did this happen?"

    He really did not know because his profound strength had been sealed for the past three weeks.

    Hua Wuwu gasped softly, "You''ve really deflowered Xue Qianxue?"

    Yuan Ji was gasping too. He had suddenly remembered a rumor that had been circting in the past. If the chastity of the Sacred Maiden was taken, it would be able to aid the taker in his realm breakthrough and even had the effect of strengthening the purity of the soul sea''s profound energies.

    Hua Baiyue stared nkly at Yuan Ji, "Obviously the answer is yes!"

    Yuan Ji put on a straight face as he said, "Of course not! We''re very pure friends." He could not allow anyone to tarnish Xue Qianxue''s reputation, including himself.

    "Believe it or not, it is up to you."

    Hua Wuwu was smiling now, "Luckily he is a seventh realm saint or else that golden lightning will surely get him."

    Hua Baiyue nodded, "But he can actually survive one? This is already a great feat."

    "It is only a six-stage golden lightning and only just one golden lightning. It is nothing to be proud of. Our old master had survived through the nine-stage purple lightning. Now that is a feat that is worth praising." Hua Wuwu said.

    "Yes, himparing to our old master is like a random dung on a beautiful road." Hua Baiyue smiled.

    Yuan Ji was frowning lightly at theirments.  He returned a thought. "If I am a random dung then your old master must be the master of my dung. Haha."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now taking a displeasure look at him as they said together, "What are you smiling at?"

    Hua Baiyue smiled curiously, "You like to be a dung?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly as he could not resist saying, "I am imaging myself as the dung that is on your old master''s face."

    "You!!" Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now so enraged that they had suddenly attacked him at the same time.

    But Yuan Ji was no longer the fifth realm cultivator that he once was. Nor was he a low level cultivator now.

    Therefore he was now exchanging several blows with them and the shockwaves of their shadow blows were resounding throughout the cave.

    Yuan Ji was gasping in his heart, "So this is the profound strength of a seventh realm golden saint. Maybe I should use these two saintesses to test my new profound strength? Maybe that is a bad idea. I may get myself killed by the two of them if they are a little serious."

    He could tell that these two sisters were actually quite lenient with him when they had attacked him. It was unlike earlier when they were fighting with Zhao Songjin.

    It was because he knew that they were only keeping him alive for the duel with their old master and not because they really wanted to be lenient with him.

    All of a sudden Zhao Wuwu had stopped attacking him as she threw him his ring and belt, "These are your spatial ring and belt. Take care not to lose them again."

    Then she was smiling coldly, "Seems that you''re quite poor except for an earth-step divine sword."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji had a light tremble as he rubbed his spatial ring. Inside was the earth-step divine sword that was a pledge from Xia Jiajia to him.

    He muttered silently, "Jiajia¡­"

    He could lose all his stuff except for this earth-step divine sword. It was because he could not afford to lose the only thing that Xia Jiajia had left for him.

    "Thank you!" Yuan Ji said.

    Hua Baiyue giggled, "You are so weird. Earlier we have saved you and you didn''t even say a single thank you. But when we have returned your stuff to you, you are actually grateful?"

    Yuan Jiughed. "That is because I have some old memories here. Do you know that I''ve identally dropped this spatial ring into a pit of feces before?"

    All of a sudden the two lovely young saintesses had bolted from the cave.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "They like their cleanliness a little too much?"

 Chapter 41 The Two Saintesses

    Yuan Ji was now dozing in a quiet pool in the wilderness.

    After a while, two lovely maidens had suddenly appeared; they were Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    They were looking none the pleased with Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Jiughed softly when he saw them, "So have youpleted the tasks that I''ve assigned to you?"

    Hua Wuwu folded her arms, "We are not your servants or guardians."

    Hua Baiyue gave a gentle kick to Hua Wuwu before grinning, "Charcoal Yuan, it is done."

    "This will be the veryst time that we will be helping you." Hua Wuwu groaned unhappily. "This is against our pce rules."

    Yuan Jiughed before he turned to say solemnly to them, "Thank you!"

    He had actually asked them to pass a message to Xue Qianxue to inform her that he was still well and he had asked her to be strong.

    They were naturally reluctant to help him.

    He had said to them, "I had overheard that the two of you had been roaming the premises of the Celestial Orthodox Sect for the past three weeks. This is a most outstanding feat. You can actually go undiscovered for this long. If I were to go myself, maybe I will be caught in no time. Surely you don''t want me to be captured and executed by them again?"

    When he had threatened them that he would be going back to the Celestial Orthodox Sect, they were forced to help him.

    He quietly asked, "Did Qianxue say anything to you?"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled softly, "It seems that you had really deflowered her already. Because she had said to us that she will miss you and ask you not to rescue her."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Ask me not to rescue her? Does she know that there is an evil plot against her?"

    <o>,m Hua Wuwu said, "It takes us more than a week to finally have a chance to pass your message to her. Where she is now, is heavily guarded. Moreover there is a profound tracer on her that will be hard to remove. I will suggest that you listen to her for the time being. She says that she may know who her plotters are now and she will be careful."</o>

    Hua Baiyue nodded, "The person that she is most anxious about is you. You didn''t see her tears when she had learnt that you are still alive."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Qianxue¡­"

    Hua Baiyue interrupted his thoughts as she chuckled, "So our charcoal Yuan is no more? You are little beauty Yuan Ji again."

    Yuan Ji was a golden celestial of the seventh realm level. In just a week, he had already shed off his burnt skin and he was now looking as good as new.

    "I don''t understand." Yuan Ji muttered. "The two of you aren''t so bad. Why don''t you leave the Hundred Flower Divine Flower?"

    Hua Baiyue giggled, "Well, our old master is more beautiful than you are. Our love for our old master is unwavering and cannot be shaken."

    Yuan Ji muttered almost incoherently, "Disguising. He is only using the two of you to be his melting cauldron."

    Hua Wuwuughed, "So what? We enjoy being the melting cauldron of our old master."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was sighing in his heart. These two lovely beauties would surely have nock of suitors if they had set their sights away from their disgusting old master and the two old great saints.

    "So, why are you following me?" He finally popped the question.

    Hua Wuwu rolled her eyes before she smiled, "We have to ensure that you do not run away from the duel like a coward."

    "Do you have to add like a coward?" Yuan Ji frowned lightly. "I won''t run away for sure."

    "Then why are you here and not at the Emperor Hall Sect?" Hua Baiyue winked at him. "You''re trying to escape, didn''t you?"

    "Of course not! I''m just trying to look for a friend." Yuan Ji protested immediately.

    "He will surely be a lecherous ghost when he dies. Even when he is at his death''s door, he is still thinking of looking for Xue Qianxue." Hua Baiyue said as she looked at her sister.

    "Definitely a lecherous ghost when he dies." Hua Wuwu giggled.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly. "I''m really looking for a friend. Before I die, I must find her at all costs."

    "Confirm he is going to be a lecherous ghost." Hua Baiyue chuckled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had grabbed Hua Baiyue ankle and had pulled her into the pool with him.

    There was a loud ''SPLASH'' as Hua Baiyue fell into the pool!

    "How dare you!" Hua Baiyue began to punch and kick him furiously.

    "Seem like you are enjoying yourself." Yuan Ji chuckled softly.

    "Go to hell!" Hua Baiyue threw a powerful punch that rippled through his golden body.

    At the same time Hua Wuwu had kicked the back of his head as she cried out, "You dare to take liberties with my sister!"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly as he ignored their punches and kicks.

    Their attacks were not weak at all and most cultivators would not be able to take their blows.

    But luckily for Yuan Ji, he was an initial tier seventh realm golden saint. Although their blows hurt but it was non-lethal. Moreover he knew that they were not serious about hurting him or else they would not have donated to him so many of their precious spirit herbs to treat and speed up the recovery of his injuries.

    Finally he got up of the pool as he said. "I have fully recovered now and I got to go now."

    "Where are you going?" Hua Wuwu was startled.

    Yuan Ji smiled and replied, "I am going to somewhere dangerous. I''m going to look for Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue now."

    Hua Baiyue made a soft growl, "Can''t you find a cave or something and stay out of troubles for the next four months?"

    Yuan Jiughed as he leapt from the pool to drynd. Almost immediate, his profound animus had dissipated all the droplets from his clothing and his clothing waspletely dried.

    Then he had turned to look at the two saintesses, "So, are youing with me or not?"

    "Fat chance!" Hua Wuwu said.

    "Fat hope! We are not going to be your bodyguards. Save your efforts." Hua Baiyue giggled. "You can go and die yourself. This time we are closing our eyes."

    "You know. I know that you will be following me anyway. Rather than constantly spying on me, I giving you a choice to keep a closer tabs on my every movements so that you can ount to your Divine Pce Master. I must be the kindest fool in the entire fraternity to ask the two of you to follow me." Yuan Ji smiled.

    "If you''re noting with me, don''t me me if you happen to lose track of me. I must warn you first that I''ve regained my profound strength now and my lightless skill isn''t weak. I may even be able to shake off the two of you off anytime."

    Seeing that they were feigning not to hear him, he smiled coolly. "Alright then. I am taking off now."

    "Wait!" Hua Wuwu panicky said. "We wille with you but¡­"

    Yuan Ji asked, "But what?"

    Hua Baiyue said shyly, "Can you please turn around first? I am a little wet at the moment."

    It was only then that Yuan Ji had noticed that he could see through the soaking wet clothing of Hua Baiyue¡­

    "What are you looking at?" Hua Wuwu forcefully turned his back around before saying to Hua Baiyue, "Sister, you cane up of the pool now."

    As Yuan Ji turned his back around, he asked. "So, why don''t your old master just send you to kill me instead of having an honorable duel with me? Isn''t it much easier?"

    But Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue looked the other way, pretending they did not hear him at all.

    Whenever he had asked them for anything about the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, they were extremely tight-lipped.

 Chapter 42 The Cultivation System

    Yuan Ji and the two saintesses were now in a mountain city.

    This mountain city was ast stop before they officially departed from the orthodox fraternity into the unorthodox fraternity.

    They were now at a tea house and taking a short rest.

    Yuan Ji said to the steward, "Room for two. And bring me your best dishes for three."

    The steward humbly smiled at him, "Great Celestials, I will see to it now."

    Hua Wuwu frowned, "We''re all golden celestials here. Do we even need to eat?"

    It is true that once a cultivator has attained to the fifth realm level, they will no longer have the need to eat or drink. It is because they can cultivate upon the spirit forces that are around them and it is equally as nourishing to them.

    Golden celestials are truly half-step immortals with extremely long lives as well.

    Yuan Jiughed, "But real food is tasty. It just takes a little effort to dissipate the food as profound energies. What? You mean you don''t eat at the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Hua Wuwu smiled coldly, "We have never taken any solid food for centuries."

    Hua Baiyue nodded, "In our Hundred Flower Divine Pce, we have the tasty celestial fruits for our cravings. Why do we need to eat these ''un'' delicious oily food?"

    Hua Wuwu returned a nod too, "You can have all the dishes to yourself. We''re definitely not eating it."

    Yuan Jiughed, "What a pity then. You don''t know what you''re missing."

    All of a sudden there was a noise in the street and Yuan Ji could see two golden celestials were drawing swords against each other.

    He immediately stood up and muttered, "They''re having a duel?"

    He was overheard by the steward who immediately chuckled, "That is right. That is Li Ye, a fifth realm golden celestial and the other one is Duan Tian who is a sixth realm golden supremacy."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Is this even a fair duel? That Duan Tian obviously has the stronger profound strength."

    The stewardughed, "It is a fair duel because this Li Ye had been challenging several sixth realm supremacies recently and had won. Now Duan Tian is challenging him to a duel to avenge the honor of his prot¨¦g¨¦ n."

    "This Li Ye is so formidable?" Yuan Ji was further startled.

    Even Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were also looking in the direction of the duel.

    The steward exined, "This Li Ye had actually ascended from the lower realm recently and he did not know the rules of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Therefore he had unwittingly offended some high level golden celestials."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he rubbed his chin, "This is interesting. He is from the lower realm?"

    The Deste Celestial Fraternity was actually part of the Celestial Realm that the mortals from the lower realm had always dreamed of ascending.

    If a peaked cultivation practitioner from the lower realm manages to ascend to the Celestial Realm, they will always be a fifth realm golden celestial. It is because during the ascension to the Celestial Realm, their body will undergo a metamorphosis, transforming their mortal body into a golden body.

    The vast majority of the celestials in the Celestial Realm are actually born in this realm and that included Yuan Ji. It is extremely rare to see anyone that is from the lower Mortal Realm and it is so rare that this was actually the first time that Yuan Ji had actually seen one.

    In the Celestial Realm, all the native celestials are actually descended from the cultivation practitioners that had ascended from the Mortal Realm.

    And it was these ancient celestials that had passed down their various cultivation practices, martial techniques and profound arts to the present celestials by forming the prot¨¦g¨¦ ns.

    The native celestials are actually weaker than the Ascended Celestials as the majorityck the mental fortitude or talent to actually cultivate into a golden celestial.

    It is estimated that over 97% of the native celestials are unable to cultivate into a golden celestial at the end of their life span.

    Out of the 3% of the native celestials that have managed to cultivate into a golden celestial, over 66% are at the fifth realm golden celestial level, 33% are at the sixth realm golden supremacy level while only 1% can be fortunate enough to attain to the seventh realm sacred saint level.

    Failure to breakthrough to the fifth realm, sixth realm and seventh realm level will often mean instant death for the cultivators. Therefore these three realms are also called the Life and Death Tribtions.

    Unless it is time for their realm breakthrough, most golden celestials will never dare to forcefully attempt for a breakthrough. It is because no one is willing to die prematurely.

    Because of the great difficulty of bing a golden celestial, the celestials that had managed to attain it are often given the honorable address of Great Celestials and that was how the steward had addressed Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue when he saw that they had golden eyes which are the characteristic of a golden celestial.

    If the realm level of the golden celestial is known, a fifth realm golden celestial will also be known for example as ''Celestial'' Yuan Ji, a sixth realm golden supremacy as ''Supremacy'' Yuan Ji and a seventh realm sacred saint golden saint as ''Saint'' Yuan Ji.

    For the native celestials that wants to be a golden celestial, it is a constant battle against time. It is because unlike the Ascend Celestials who had been tempered by the Divine Cmity of their ascension and are given a new ageless body, the native celestials are not so lucky.

    They have to quickly cultivate to the Third Realm Enlighten Celestial Level before they can slow down their aging process.

    Only when they have reached the Fourth Realm Immortal Celestial Level, then will their agingpletely be ceased.

    Needless to say, the younger the golden celestials looks, the more likely that they are the geniuses of their generation.

    Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue are all young looking and they are really the geniuses of their generation.

    Although Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue may have the appearances of a young maiden but they were in fact many centuries old.

    Yuan Ji was now looking curiously at the duel and he was rubbing his chin. The reason why he was rubbing his chin was because he had lost his beard and got nothing better to do with his fingers. But of course, no one would care for the reason why he was rubbing his chin.

    He was actually calcting the profound strength differences between the two duelists as he rubbed his chin.

    Profound strength originates from the cultivator''s soul sea. The soul sea is also known as the inner cultivation sea, elixir sea or energy sea depending on the local cultivation practice.

    In order to muster profound strength, the cultivator must harness the profound energies that are within the soul sea.

    And in order to harness the profound energies within the soul sea, the cultivator must cultivate the spiritual auras that are in the mountains in order to fill the soul sea.

    Each time the cultivator has a breakthrough in the realm level, the boundaries of the soul sea will also increase, affecting the profound strength and the recovery rate of the cultivator.

    Therefore even though Li Ye and Duan Tian are both golden celestials, the differences in their profound strength may affect their odds.

    Yuan Ji asked the steward, "Do you know their exact realm level and stage?"

    The steward chuckled, "This Li Ye is only at the initial tier of the fifth realm level while Duan Tian is at the upper tier of the sixth realm level."

    Yuan Ji was startled. "The differences between them are so great?"

    The steward nodded, "Duan Tian is expected to win this duel hands down."

    Yuan Ji was forced to agree quietly.

    Each time a fifth realm golden celestial advances in the small tiers, a gain of 10% of profound strength is expected.

    Each time a sixth realm golden supremacy advances in the small tiers, a gain of 20% of profound strength is expected.

    Each time a seventh realm golden saint advances in the small tiers, a gain of 30% of profound strength is expected.

    But a sixth realm golden supremacy also has a gain of 30% more profound strength due to the elevation of a new realm over the fifth realm golden celestial.

    And a seventh realm golden saint has a 50% more profound strength over a sixth realm golden supremacy due to the elevated realm.

    By Yuan Ji''s calctions, this Duan Tian had an advantage of a 110% profound strength over Li Ye. This mean to say that the strongest strikes by Duan Tian was literally twice as powerful as Li Ye.

    As for Yuan Ji, he had an advantage of an 80% profound strength over Duan Tian.

    This was of course an estimation and may not be true.

    But that was not all.

    A fifth realm golden celestial has a 50% quicker recovery rate while a sixth realm golden supremacy has a 70% quicker recovery rate.

    And a seventh realm golden saint has a 90% quicker recovery rate over the other realm cultivators.

    What was recovery rate?

    Recovery rate is the speed that the cultivator will replenish their profound strength and stamina.

    Whenever a strike is made, profound strength is lost and the profound energies in the soul sea will be depleted.

    No one has an infinity profound strength and stamina to attack continuously and seventh realm saints are greatly feared for their recovery rate rather than their profound strength.

    It is because Saints can use their most powerful profound arts and they will quickly regain back 90% of their profound strength and only 10% of their profound energies will actually be depleted.

    At the same time recovery rate would also affect the speed of regeneration of the Saints if they are wounded and the speed of absorbing spiritual force at the same time, making Saints much more difficult to be killed.<sub> </sub>

    When Yuan Ji was a peaked sixth realm golden supremacy, he knew that his chances of winning Xue Qianxue was next to nil.

    It was because Xue Qianxue was already a middle tier saintess and her profound strength without any profound arts was 110% over Yuan Ji.

    Now a 100% difference in profound strength will mean that Yuan Ji''s attacks may not even bypass her profound aura and he may not even hurt her at all.

    That was the main reason why Yuan Ji was forced to attempt his seventh realm breakthrough in order to stand a fighting chance against Xue Qianxue.

    Of course the differences in profound strength can be affected by the profound arts, martial techniques and weapons that are used.

    Yuan Ji had checked his homework and had discovered that Xue Qianxue''s profound skills were all above him.

    The same logic applied when Yuan Ji had killed Elder Hai Sheng who was a sixth realm golden supremacy while he could only muster the profound strength of a fourth realm cultivator. Although his profound strength was weaker than Hai Sheng but he had the superior sword technique and a divine sword to aid him.

    Now Yuan Ji was appraising the odds of Li Ye versus Duan Tian.

    It seemed that Li Ye had the more superior techniques and profound arts over Duan Tian.

    Usually the Ascended Celestials are better in their profound arts because those who can ascend are usually grandmaster level in the Mortal Realm.

    Usually also because the Mortal Realm are a much more violent ce than the Celestial Realm.

    The martial fraternity of the Mortal Realm is a ce for heroes who throw away their lives fearlessly to settle their blood feuds and martial honors.

    The Celestials in the Celestial Realm called these heroes stupid because they are not smart enough to value their own lives.

    It is because the Celestials in the Celestial Realm are more interested to preserve their own lives. Most of the time they will never fight against someone who was of the higher cultivation level unless they had a cheat or a profound treasure.

    In short the Celestials prefer to fight like smart heroes and they are all pussies.

    Yuan Ji shook his head with a soft sigh when he had thought of it.

    Without martial and willpower tempering, it is difficult for the Celestials'' profound arts to improve. It is no wonder a first rate fighter from the Mortal Realm can easily kill a fourth realm cultivator and even a fifth realm golden celestial.

    In the Celestial Realm, there are many profound arts that used to be very powerful but due tock of life and death battle insights, these profound arts are either lost or its sessors have never mastered to the original level of the Ascended Celestials.

    In the martial fraternity, their swords and fists are their constant weapons in tempering themselves through endless battle and even their injuries are a way to enhance their endurances.

    "My Yan''Er and Chengxi, they are not ruthless enough to handle a super exponent from the Mortal Realm." Yuan Ji was suddenly sighing.

    All of a sudden Li Ye was given a quick sh by the sword of Duan Tian.

    After exchanging more than fifty strokes, Li Ye had finally lost. Even though he had the superior sword arts but Duan Tian had the superior profound strength and he was still as fresh as ever.

    Duan Tian wasughing out loud. "Now you know how strong I am, right? So next time when you see me, be sure to scram as far away as possible. This little amount of injuries won''t kill you but you won''t be so lucky next time. Next time don''t be a hero and challenge a sixth realm golden supremacy. Know your station and your ce!"

    He was about to give Li Ye another sh when Yuan Ji had suddenly shed in front of him.

    Yuan Ji smiled, "Why don''t we duel with each other?"

    Duan Tianughed, "So what are your name and your realm level?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am Li Yuan. I''m also at the fifth realm level only."

    He had reported a fake name as he was not interested to know this Duan Tian.

    Duan Tianughed jovially, "I am Supremacy Duan Tian. By my title, you should know my realm level. You are also an Ascended Celestial?"

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, "I''m a celestial cultivator from the Five Heavens Peaks."

    All of a sudden Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had shed to Yuan Ji and they were saying at the same time. "Who are you bullying?"

    When Duan Tian saw the two lovely young maidens, he was suddenly drooling. "I''m not bullying him. He has dared to challenge me so therefore I am epting it. Maidens, is he a friend of yours? If you are willing to apany me for a drink, I will be happy to give him some mercies."

    Hua Wuwu rolled her eyes and thought, "This stupid fool has no idea that we are asking Yuan Ji not to bully him. It''s not the other way round."

    Even Hua Baiyue was cursing silently, "He dares to be so disrespectful to the two saintesses here. He must be so tired of living!"

    Yuan Ji was sighing softly to himself. "Although you are a powerful sixth realm golden supremacy but do you know that you have encounter the 1% impossible odds of meeting not one but three saint level cultivators."

    Duan Tianughed as he continued to eye the two lovely maidens indecently, "Since you are only a fifth realm golden celestial, I will let you make the first move."

    Yuan Ji said, "Alright then. Please give me your instructions."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had attacked with his sword fingers. He had limited his profound strength to the fifth realm level as he did not want Duan Tian to know that he was actually a seventh realm cultivator.

    His sword fingers were imbued with the prating power of his sword energies as he suddenly struck Duan Tian a dozen times.

    The first six sword fingers had no effect upon Duan Tian but from the seventh attack onward, his sword fingers hadpletely rippled through the protective profound animus of Duan Tian and had sent him flying off!

    Duan Tian immediately coughed out blood with disbelief.

    How could he be defeated by mere fingers?!

    But his opponent was really a fifth realm cultivator as he could tell from the profound strength that was used against him.

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly, "Now scram or I will be nasty."

    Duan Tian shouted, "Just you wait! You must be an Ascended Celestial too! I will not let this matter off lightly. I will be back soon!"

    He had quickly disappeared in the crowd.

    Yuan Ji had actually cheated. Although he had limited his profound strength to the fifth realm level but he had the speedy recovery of a seventh realm golden saint.

    If he was only a sixth realm cultivator then he could only unleash six sword fingers continuously and could not be able to prate through Duan Tian''s golden body.

    But because he had the insane recovery of a golden saint, he was able to make twelve continuous sword fingers'' attacks and therefore he could prate Duan Tian''s golden body.

    This was another use for recovery as a high recovery could also maintain the profound energies of the cultivator.

    Hua Wuwu muttered, "Bully."

    Yuan Ji ignored her.

    He walked to Li Ye and said, "Friend, I must say that you are quite skillful."

    Li Ye smiled bitterly, "I''m not as good as you. I need to train harder."

    Yuan Ji snapped his fingers and said, "That is the word! Train harder rather than cultivate harder. Will you like to join my sect?"

    Li Ye was startled, "Join your sect? But I am an Ascended Celestial. No one wees me and I don''t like to join a sect."

    Most Ascended Celestials were the grandmasters or patriarchs of their sects. Therefore it was understandable why they did not want to join any sect. They were mostly unwilling to be a low ranking prot¨¦g¨¦ again.

    Yuan Ji nodded but he was not about to give up on persuading Li Ye, "I will make you my elder and you will be in charge of training my prot¨¦g¨¦s. I am Yuan Ji the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Li Ye took a step back as he gasped, "You''re that infamous fool that dares to challenge the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    Yuan Ji: ...

    He replied bitterly, "Yes, I am that fool. I didn''t know I am so infamous now that even you have heard of my name."

    Li Ye quickly bowed with his hands, "Pce Master Yuan, please pardon me for my rudeness. Actually you have my utmost respect for your martial spirits. I will join your sect. If there is a hero that I admire, that is you."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he returned a weak smile, "Really? That''s good to hear. Haha."

    Hua Baiyue rolled her eyes, "A soon to be dead man is still going around to recruit people. What a weird fellow."

    Li Ye respectfully bowed with his hands toward the two lovely young maidens, "How do I address the two Great Celestials here?"

    Yuan Ji put his hand over Li Ye''s shoulder and chuckled, "They are not important at all. They are just my personal attendants."

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ¡­

 Chapter 43 The Real Arrogant Cultivator (1)

    Yuan Ji was now back at the tea house and he was smiling as he said to Li Ye, "Please help yourself with all these dishes!"

    Li Ye said respectfully, "Thank you for your hospitalities. I am really honored to share the same table as you."

    Then he took a look at the two lovely young maidens who were sitting at the same table as him, "Maidens, you are not eating?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly, "They are merely my personal attendants therefore they can''t eat until I''ve finished with my meal. They can only eat the leftovers¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji could feel two swift kicks under the table that were aimed at him.

    Li Ye was stammering as he looked at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "But they are also golden celestials. Is not that nice to call them your personal attendants?"

    ? Yuan Jiughed. "They just worshipping me that''s all and won''t dare to eat in my presence." It seemed that Li Ye was not so stupid after all so he decided to change to another approach.

    He could tell that Li Ye was constantly looking at the two lovely maidens and was in fact secretly drooling at their lovely appearances.

    All of a sudden Hua Wuwu picked up the chopsticks and said coldly, "Who say we are his personal attendants and are his worshippers?"

    Hua Baiyue lifted up the rice bowl that was in front of her as she stared coldly at Yuan Ji, "Hmph! Shameless! We eat whenever we want to. Stop sticking gold into your shameless face."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially as he said, "Look, the dishes are really good."

    Hua Baiyue took a look at Hua Wuwu, "Sister, this is really good."

    Hua Wuwu frowned lightly, "Is that so?"

    She took a fearful bite before she said quietly, "Not bad at all."

    Li Ye was smiling weakly as he looked at Yuan Ji, "They are not your personal attendants? Are they your sisters?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I don''t have two such ugly sisters¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was kicked off his seat and he hadnded on the ground with a tremendous impact, startling all the nearby guests.

    From the ground, Yuan Ji could see that the two lovely maidens were not wearing anything under their dresses except for their undies.

    "What a lovely sight¡­" He began to mutter. "This is the best dishes¡­"

    Li Ye was shocked as he panicky helped Yuan Ji to his feet.

    "Pce Master Yuan, what had happened?" He could only see Yuan Ji had suddenly backflip from his seat and did not see the two powerful kicks that were delivered by the two lovely saintesses that were under the table.

    Yuan Ji muttered with a weak smile, "Nothing. I just thought of something and was overtly too excited. Haha."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were both giggling at the same time as they said at the same time, "He is always so clumsy with his hands and legs."

    Yuan Jiughed as he introduced, "They are indeed my sisters. This is Yuan Wu and this is Yuan Yue."

    He did not reveal their real names to Li Ye because he knew that the two young saintesses may be unhappy with him if he did so. He was already grateful to them for being around him. With two saintesses to ''protect'' him, he felt a lot safer. This was especially so when he was entering the dark territories of the unorthodox fraternity.

    Li Ye quickly greeted them, "Maiden Yuan Wu, Maiden Yuan Yue. You''re also fifth realm cultivators too?"

    Hua Wuwu returned a casual nod. They were not revealing to anyone that they were actually saintesses in public or to anyone.

    Li Ye smiled, "We are on the same cultivation level. I hope to learn a thing or two from the two of you in the future."

    Yuan Ji was secretlyughing. "My dear Elder Li Ye, they are only interested to be a melting cauldron for their old master. You and I have totally no chances with them."

    Li Ye quickly said to Yuan Ji, "Pce Master Yuan''s sword energies fingers are also quite startling. This profound art of yours can be considered as an epitome level finger energies skill. I''m really impressed by it earlier."

    Yuan Ji returned a rather forceful smile.

    It was because he had ''cheated'' bybining it with the startling recovery speed of the seventh realm sacred saint level.

    To the ''naked eyes'' or rather the divine senses of all the onlookers, it had appeared that he had only the profound strength of a fifth realm cultivator.

    Therefore when he had executed his sword energies fingers twelve times continuously before his profound strength receded, it was naturally viewed as an epitome level profound art.

    "Brother Li Ye, you know that you should restrain from fighting with a higher realm cultivation expert. This is not the martial fraternity of the Mortal Realm. It is really alright to concede to a higher cultivation expert. Over here, it is not shameful to concede. Moreover we are in the orthodox fraternity. No one will really kill you unless it is a real feud."

    Li Ye returned a deep sigh, "Actually I am quite mindful to get out of troubles. I''ve actually only wanted to cultivate in peace. But do you know that these arrogant supremacies are really too much? They are forcing the vulnerable maidens to drink with them and they are full of vulgarities."

    Yuan Ji had a sudden sheepish look as he said awkwardly, "Actually these vulnerable maidens can always reject their advances. No one is really forcing them to drink with these arrogant supremacies."

    The reason why he was suddenly sheepish was because he was actually one of the many ''arrogant'' supremacies in the past that did this thing quite often.

    It was because the golden celestials that had attained to the Sixth Realm Golden Supremacy Level were in the top 33% of their cohort and even if they did see a lovely maiden with golden eyes, they would just assume that she may be a lower or equal realm level. It was because seventh realm cultivators were the top 1% and were rarely encountered.<sub> </sub>

    Li Ye replied righteously, "When I have cultivated to the sixth realm golden supremacy level, I will beat up these bullies."

    The reason why he was saying quite righteously was because he was trying to impress upon Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as well.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I''m sure that you can reach the sixth realm level in no time. Ascended Celestials usually have the potential for greater heights."

    Li Ye grinned proudly, "I''ve Pce Master Yuan to thank for that."

    Yuan Ji chuckled with a fake smile, "I shall await the day that Brother Li Ye will be upholding justices for the weak then."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue muttered almost incoherently as they stared at Yuan Ji, "Hypocrite."

    They were actually thinking, "Can''t this Li Ye sees that this shameless Yuan Ji is now forcing us to eat and drink with him as well?"

    Actually most golden supremacies like Yuan Ji were only flirting with the maidens that they had encountered. Most of them would never force their wills or use their superior cultivation strength upon the weak. They were mostly all talks and no actions. Although they were shameless but they were still not shameless enough to do so unless they did not want their reputations and faces anymore.

    This was the ''so call culture'' of the Orthodox Fraternity of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Li Ye mmed his fists on the table, "Now I''m on fire! One of these days, I will stop the shameless antics of these arrogant supremacies. Do you know that this is called sexual harassment?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly as he said silently, "One of these days, you may identally offend a saint when he is doing his sexual harassment and you will be bashed up for interrupting his mood."

    When a golden celestial offended or interrupted a saint, he was naturally a fair game for retaliation.

    All of a sudden there were loud noises that hade from the lower storey of the tea house. "Young Master, my men have told me that they are still here. You must help me to teach them a lesson!"

    Yuan Ji was frowning softly, "It is that Duan Tian again. I didn''t think that he will be back so soon to seek his vendetta. It seems that he is back with someone stronger."

    Li Ye was startled, "Pce Master Yuan, do you need my help?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled out loud, "I''m not afraid. At most he can only find a peaked supremacy or someone with a better profound art to deal with me. Even if the helper is a saint, I am not afraid. Haha."

    As heughed, he was looking at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. With two saintesses around him, would he really lose?

    Li Ye looked at Yuan Ji with an almost hero-worshipping look, "I didn''t think that I will be looking at Pce Master Yuan''s heroic feats again. It will be a great eye-opener for me again."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Not at all, not at all¡­"

    All of a sudden his countenance had frozen in ce; it was because Duan Tian was now leading a really fine looking young man up the stairs.

    When this fine looking young man had appeared, all the maidens including Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now gasping softly.

    It was because his handsomeness was several notches higher than Yuan Ji and he was the type of man that could make any maidens'' hearts to pace irregrly.

    This fine looking young man had a silver fan as he smiled gently and his bearing was extremely enchanting.

    But it was not why Yuan Ji had frozen in ce. It was because this fine looking young man was actually Ling Feiyue who was disguising herself as a man and Ling Feiyue was a middle-tier saintess!

    Li Ye hummed coldly, "It is only a good-for-nothing young master. I''m sure that Pce Master Yuan will be able to teach him a lesson."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Young Master Ling Feiyang! These are the two men that are shaming our prot¨¦g¨¦ n. Please help us to teach them a lesson!" Duan Tian said angrily.

    Ling Feiyang smiled as she trained her golden eyes at Yuan Ji and Duan Tian, "Oh? These are the two arrogant men?"

    His smiles were really gentle and all the maidens were now staring nkly at him. Indeed, his gentle smile was like the most beautiful smile in the whole world that appeared to sweep any maiden off their feet.

    But to Yuan Ji, it was a nightmare.

    He rubbed his chin as he thought, "Although I am about to look for you but I have not readied my n of action yet. But why am I so afraid of her? She is a saintess. I am a saint too. Moreover I have two saintesses nearby to help me. Three saint cultivators versus one saint cultivator. I won''t really lose¡­"

    All of a sudden Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had stepped back and said at the same time, "We don''t know these two men well. They force us to drink and eat with them!"

    Hua Wuwu added with a woeful look, "They force us to apany them!"

    "They are the real bullies." Hua Baiyue added with a frightful look.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Li Ye was also stunned as he looked at the two lovely maidens and then looked at Yuan Ji, "But¡­but¡­"

 Chapter 44 The Real Arrogant Cultivator (2)

    Li Ye was stunned that Yuan Ji''s two sisters had suddenly abandoned them.

    Duan Tian disyed a proud grin as he stared fiercely at Yuan Ji, "You didn''t expect me to be back so soon, didn''t you?"

    Then he said humbly as he stole a nce at Ling Feiyang, "This is Young Master Ling Feiyang, If you''re wise enough, apologize to us immediately and we will be gracious enough to let you off."

    Ling Feiyang nodded and asked him, "What is his name?"

    Yuan Ji growled, "I am right in front of you. You don''t have to ask him. I am Li Yuan!"

    But Ling Feiyang ignored him as ''he'' looked in the direction of Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue and asked with great gentleness, "Are the two maidens alright? Did he touch or offend you in any way?"

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had run to his side. As they cuddled together, they replied woefully. "He was stroking our legs earlier. He is really a beast of a man. Please address our injustice for us!"

    Yuan Ji wasughing in his heart. "I''m only a supposedly fifth realm cultivator. How on earth will I be able to bully two golden celestials, assuming that she believes that the two of you are really fifth realm cultivators. Haha. I''m sure Ling Feiyue isn''t so stupid to believe these two vixens¡­"

    "I believe you." Ling Feiyang replied gently to the two maidens.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "She actually believes these two vixens?!" He was in disbelief.

    Ling Feiyang said with great gentleness to the two maidens as ''he''forted them, "Since this Li Yuan can defeat even a great supremacy like Duan Tian here, he must be someone with an extraordinary background or has a powerful profound art. Rest assures that I will address your injustice for you."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were almost swept off from their feet from his encouraging words and they were looking at him with great interest now.

    Li Ye had secretly whispered to Yuan Ji, "Pce Master Yuan, what is going on here? Aren''t they your two sisters?"

    Yuan Ji whispered back with a straight face, "Actually this is our stratagem. When things go south, my two sisters will be able to deliver a strike from the back to aid us. In this way, we are on undefeated ground."

    Li Ye whispered with a startled look, "Delivering a strike to the back isn''t an honorable thing, am I right?"

    Yuan Ji continued to put on a righteous straight face, "Although it isn''t entirely honorable but their strikes won''t be a lethal one and will be used to aid us to escape once things go south. Sometimes even a hero has to ept humiliation in this manner. At most when we''re stronger, we will challenge this Ling Feiyang again in another honor duel."

    "I get it now!" Li Ye gasped. "But we are risking Yuan Wu and Yuan Yue to save our own skins. s. They''re really courageous heroines. I am really impressed by them."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He replied weakly, "Yes, me too¡­" But he was quickly cursing them silently. "My foot!"

    Ling Feiyang continued to say to the two lovely young maidens, "I will help you to break both his dirty hands today to appease you."

    The steward that was nearest to Ling Feiyang was grinning as he chipped in, "Young Master Ling. Please pardon me for saying so. Earlier, I even saw that this Li Yuan was lecherously looking under their skirts."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were both gasping all of a sudden as they began to fluster before turning their icy stares at Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji was startled as he said silently, "I have no feuds with this steward. Why did he use me for doing something that I did not do?! Is this a plot?"

    All of a sudden many of the crowd was all saying at the same time;

    "Yes, we saw him looking under their skirts earlier¡­"

    "He is really a lecherous cultivator¡­"

    "We didn''t dare to say a word earlier because he is a Great Celestial and even his friend is also a Great Celestial¡­"

    "Now that Young Master Ling is here, we can now speak our minds freely¡­"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin when he noticed that even Li Ye was looking at him with great suspicion now. He weakly muttered to himself, "It is only for just a few blinks of an eye. Does it even count? These people are too much¡­"

    Li Ye whispered to him, "Pce Master Yuan¡­did you¡­"

    Yuan Ji whispered back, "You actually believe them and not me? Have you forgotten that they are my sisters? Why would I be peeping at my own sisters? Moreover haven''t you heard that I''ve married the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi?"

    Li Ye muttered, "True, true." But he did not dare to say out his inner thoughts. "Some people have that fetish." Then he added silently, "There are no limits to a lecher''s heart."

    Ling Feiyang replied coolly to the crowd, "Then I shall blind his eyes."

    Everyone was pping and shouting, "Good! Good! Good!"

    Yuan Ji was growling silently, "Why is that they are treating us like arrogant great celestials instead of that Duan Tian? I didn''t even have the chance to be an arrogant great celestial for more than a hundred years now."

    Ling Feiyang had now turned to him to say quietly, "Li Yuan, why don''t we have a little spar outside the teahouse?"

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "Do you think that I will be afraid of a beardless fellow like you? Why don''t you grow your beard to match mine before you speak the bold words?"<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyang raised ''his'' beautiful eyelid to look at him, "You do not seem to have a beard either!"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he smiled awkwardly to himself, "I''ve forgotten about this part. There goes my famous battle quote now."

    But heughed it off awkwardly before he jumped off from the teahouse to the street below.

    He was swiftly followed by Ling Feiyang and the rest.

    They were all high level cultivators here and jumping off from the third storey of the teahouse was actually a small feat that was not worth mentioning.

    But it soon garnered attention from the crowd that was in the streets.

    "Look!"

    "It is Young Master Ling!"

    "Young Master Ling is teaching another arrogant great celestial a lesson. Let''s go and take a look!"

    "It is really Young Master Ling!"

    "He is so dashing¡­"

    "The other guy is not bad looking too. He is actually quite beautiful looking but he pales inparison with the noble and gentle air of Young Master Ling."

    "Young Master Ling has never lost a fight before. His opponent is going to suffer a humiliating defeat today!"

    Yuan Ji was groaning secretly, "When did I ever be an arrogant great celestial? This Ling Feiyue is from the unorthodox sect and I''m from the orthodox sect. I am supposed to be a good guy¡­"

    All of a sudden he had a sudden thought, "If I remembered correctly, she ims to be a fifth realm golden celestial from the Flying Swords Divine Sect in the past. If that is so, then she won''t be disying her seventh realm profound strength in the open. It is because she did not want anyone to know that she is only using the Flying Sword Divine Sect as her proxy identity to roam freely in the orthodox fraternity. Therefore, I won''t really lose to her."

    So he raised his voice to say, "Li Yuan, upper tier fifth realm golden celestial here. Please give me your instructions!"

    Ling Feiyang returned a light nod as he said gently, "Ling Feiyang, upper tier fifth realm golden celestial from the Flying Sword Divine Sect. Please give me your instructions."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were gasping softly as they looked anxiously at Ling Feiyang, "Fifth realm¡­please be careful."

    Yuan Ji was really unhappy to see that they were more concern about Ling Feiyang than him. He began to mutter silently. "If I am killed then I shall see how your Divine Pce Master is going to punish the two of you. Maybe I will just let Ling Feiyue kills me just to see your regretful expressions."

    But he was soon sighing, "They are actually my foes from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Why am I forming an emotional attachment with them? They can do whatever they want and it is actually none of my business."

    Li Ye shouted to Yuan Ji, "Brother Li Yuan, be careful!"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes and had a sheepish look. "At least I''ve got one concern supporter here. But he is a man and not a maiden¡­"

    Ling Feiyang said gently, "My weapon will be my fan here. What about yours?"

    Yuan Ji replied as he took out his divine sword from his spatial ring, "I will use a sword."

    When he had taken out an earth-grade divine sword, all the onlookers were startled and the more powerful cultivators with the more acute divine senses were all gasping, "It is an earth-step divine sword! He actually has such a formidable weapon¡­"

    The hearts of the maidens in the streets immediately sunk when they saw that Yuan Ji had an earth-step divine sword and they were fearful for Young Master Ling Feiyang.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were staring coldly at Yuan Ji and were saying unhappily, "Cheater! Bully! Shameless!"

    Yuan Ji was grinning at everyone''s miseries, especially the hearts of all the maidens in the street. He did not care for their feelings because his only objective was to defeat ''Ling Feiyang''.

    "What?" he grinned, "Did we have an agreement beforehand that divine weapons are not allowed?"

    He had a look of awesomeness as he said coolly, "My supporters to my back and Young Master Ling''s supporters to his back."

    Then he added with a wryly smile, "I can even defeat Duan Tian who is an upper sixth realm golden supremacy. Do I even need to fear from a mere fifth realm cultivator?"

    Duan Tian began to shout angrily, "That is only because I was too careless and I allow you to strike first. I didn''t think that you will be so despicable to use your full strength at the very start."

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "Does it matter? Or do you want to duel with me again?"

    As he rebuked Duan Tian, he had suddenly noticed that the supporters on his back were mostly the olderdies who were envious of the young maidens that were crowding in support for Ling Feiyang and there was not even a single pretty face.

    He waspletely speechless.

    In the past when he had his beautiful beard, all the beautiful young maidens were all on his side.

    He began to growl silently, "I must get back my manly beautiful beard as soon as possible. This is so demoralizing."

    Ling Feiyang said to him, "I don''t mind that you have a divine sword. We can continue our duel now?"

    Yuan Ji nodded as he immediately disyed a defensive sword stance. "This Ling Feiyue is really too sure of herself. She has no idea that I''m a saint as well. Today is the day that I will humiliate her in front of everyone."

 Chapter 45 The Real Arrogant Cultivator (3)

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang were immediately entangled against each other as they disyed their attacking strokes and their profound auras could be seen bursting to and fro rapidly.

    When Yuan Ji saw that Ling Feiyang had really limited her raw profound strength to the peaked fifth realm level to match against his peaked fifth realm profound strength, he was delighted.

    It was because they were almost evenly matched now.

    He was not about to give up an opportunity to humiliate her in a fight. This was a payback time for her trickery a hundred years ago.

    "I''m sure that you are unable to use any of your unorthodox profound arts or you will risk exposing your true identity in public. But I''m different. All my sword arts and techniques are orthodox in origin. Therefore I can freely use my profound skills but you are different."

    They had quickly exchanged more than a hundred swift strokes in a few blinks of an eye to test each other out and Yuan Ji was soon growling; it was because he was expecting his divine sword to slice off her fan but it did not happened.

    When high level cultivators fight, their profound strength will create an invisible animus to the weapons that they are channeling forth for their attacks. This invisible animus will also has the added effect of strengthening the weapons against damaging blows and enhancing the profound power that are disyed at the same time.

    Morever Ling Feiyang did not use his fan to take the sharp edge of his sword directly but had used one additional stroke to parry off his thrusts and shes from the unsharpened surface.

    To the eyes of the outsiders, it was obvious that Yuan Ji clearly had the advantage as Ling Feiyang was using two strokes for every single stroke that he had used.

    But to Yuan Ji, he knew that he did not have a big advantage because Ling Feiyang had a higher recovery than him. Therefore she was not going to exhaust her profound strength or vital breath any time soon.

    When top cultivators fight with each other, they are extremely mindful of their vital breath cycle. This vital breath cycle is actually the vital profound energies that are drawn from their soul sea at every breath cycle at which they must distribute carefully into maintaining their profound aura, profound strength and breathing at the same time in perfect harmony.

    If they use too much of their profound strength (for attacks, speed, evading etc.) or profound aura (for defense, absorbing blows, lightless skill etc.), their breathing will be quickly thrown into disharmony if they use up their vital breath too fast.

    And when breathing is affected, their vital profound energies in their soul sea will be consumed very quickly. The same stroke will then also consumed more of their profound strength when their vital breath cycle is in disharmony.

    Usually the golden celestial cultivators have a longer vital breath cycle than the lowly realm cultivators, often ten times or and more. This is to say that while a normal cultivator may need to breathe every 3s to 5s, the golden celestials only need to breathe every 30s or longer depending on their internal profound arts.

    In terms of energy level and the vital breath cycle of a golden celestial alone, any cultivator that is below the fourth realm level will find it hard to defeat a golden celestial on a one to one duel.

    And if the golden celestials are to run away, they can usually run ten times or longer than any non-golden celestials without even getting tire.

    Therefore attacking speeds are measured in the blink of an eye rather than breathing time. It is because the more powerful their cultivation and internal profound arts are, the better that they can control their heartbeats and vital breath cycle.

    It ismon for many of the powerful cultivators to breathe only once every ten minutes and the more powerful they are, the longer that they can hold onto their vital breath without losing it. It is because to lose their vital breath would mean that they will end up losing their precious profound energies in their soul sea.

    Therefore unlike the normal cultivators, the golden celestials can often go on days without sleep and even perform physically taxing activities without getting tire because of their longer vital breath cycle.

    Yuan Ji knew that their fights would take a long time to finish at this rate. They could even fight for three days and three nights without getting tired. It was because the two of them were actually saint level cheaters. That would be as good as exposing their fake cultivation level if they really fought for this long.

    Therefore Yuan Ji had decided that the warm up strokes were nowing to an end.

    There was a gentle smile on Ling Feiyang as well. She could tell that Yuan Ji was now increasing his profound strength to the offensive and he was about to get serious.

    "Sword Energy Wave!" All of a sudden Yuan Ji had swung his sword from a downward cut to a forward stance that immediately exploded a wave of sword energies that ripped through the ground like a wave of soaring dragon toward Ling Feiyang.

    The onlookers were all startled by this high level sword energy technique as it sped toward Ling Feiyang.

    "This is¡­a sword energy wave!"

    "This is a profound sword energies technique¡­"

    "This Li Yuan is actually a sword energy practitioner?"

    "Sword energiesbined with a divine sword is extremely lethal to block¡­"

    "Even if Young Master Ling can block off this attack, he may get injured¡­"

    "This Li Yuan is such a badass¡­"

    "He is such a bully!" Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were shouting at the same time.

    Sword energies are a special profound technique that can only be used by less than 3% of the fourth realm cultivators and above. In order to disy sword energies techniques, the cultivator must first attain to the fourth realm immortal celestial level first which is also called the energy level.

    Knowing how to use sword energies techniques has nothing to do with talents or cultivation realm level. It has to do more with the special constitution of the practitioner and hence cultivators that can use sword energies are also known as sword energies practitioners.

    The main reason why Yuan Ji had chosen Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi to be his core prot¨¦g¨¦s were because they all had the special constitution to realize the sword energies techniques.

    Unlike profound power which is the resultant of profound strength, sword energies are directly formed from the profound energies of the cultivator. Usually sword energies are much weaker than profound power at the start because sword energies lose power over a distance quickly. But as the internal profound strength of the sword energies practitioner improves, the lethal power of the sword energies will also improve.

    Most sword energies practitioners are actually weaker than pure profound power practitioners as sword energies techniques are too demanding to perfect. There are many powerful cultivators that are gifted with the constitution to use sword energies but they have limited it to the basic sword energies fingers so that they can focus on their profound power instead.

    It is because transferring the profound energies to an intermediate like a sword will mean that they will lose 70% of their profound energies strength. The better grade their weapons, the better is the profound energies retention.

    As for profound power practitioners, the loss of their profound energies to a weapon is only 30% profound power loss.

    But sword energies have its distinct advantage as it can home onto the target because sword energies are attracted to the profound energies signature of its target, making it very hard to miss. Moreover sword energies are more effective against the formidable defenses of the profound aura of the cultivators if it is not blocked or evaded.

    Ling Feiyang gasped softly when she saw the iing sword energy wave. Because Yuan Ji had unleashed it all of a sudden at point nk, she could not evade it in a timely manner.

    Therefore she imbued all her profound strength into her fan as profound power to implode upon the sword energies, dissipating it but not before she was forced to take two steps to the back.

    Yuan Ji was perplexed as he thought, "She could have used her profound strength to divert the course of my sword energy wave. But instead she has decided to take it in the face directly. Is she stupid or what? Is she trying to show off her superior profound strength? But she had failed because my attack has forced her to take two steps back. Therefore I have the superior profound strength."

    Sword energies are extremely lethal and can even prate through profound aura defenses of most cultivators.

    Ling Feiyang had channeled all her profound strength into profound power to her fan to implode his attack.

    "Is this your most powerful attack?" Ling Feiyang questioned him as she threw away her broken fan before she took out another undamaged fan. "This is just so and so only. If you have an ordinary precious sword, you may not be able to gain an advantage over me."

    Yuan Ji was grinning, "It is not all yet."

    He was not lying. Even since he had regained his profound strength to the seventh realm level, he was dying to try his Major Heavens Sword which was the secret sword art of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    His Major Heavens Sword was an advanced sword energy art that contained several epitome sword energy techniques. Altogether, the Major Heavens Sword had a total of nine levels. Thest three levels contained all the epitome sword energy techniques.<sub> </sub>

    He was previously on the 6th level. But when he had attained as a saint, he was now able to use the 7th level.

    Sword energies attacks are actually based on the recovery rate rather than profound strength of the practitioner. It is because recovery rates affect the how well the sword energy can be channeled.

    Yuan Ji was grinning to himself, "Ling Feiyue, Ling Feiyue. The result of faking your profound strength will only result in your public humiliation!"

    Major Heavens 7th Sword, Multiple Sword Waves.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had channeled all his profound strength into unleashing three waves of sword energy waves that sped rapidly toward Ling Feiyue.

    The tiles on the ground that the three sword energy waves had sped through were allpletely destroyed.

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she quickly imploded one sword energy wave with her fan and she used her body to tank the other two sword energy waves with her profound aura.

    The sword energy waves had struck her with a thunderous impact, causing her to cough out a bout of golden blood and sending her to fly seven steps backward.

    Ling Feiyang and the onlookers were quite startled that Yuan Ji was actually this powerful.

    "Young Master Ling is injured?"

    "Is he alright?"

    "I hope that he is not seriously injured¡­"

    "I am still betting my everything on Young Master Ling¡­"

    Ling Feiyang threw away her broken fan before she had taken another fan out as she heaved a soft sign before she said to Yuan Ji. "If I''ve decided to concede, will you let these two maidens go?"

    Yuan Ji was actually thinking how many fans that she had got when she had suddenly asked him the question.

    He replied coolly, "These two maidens can naturally go as they pleased. I won''t stop them from leaving."

    Ling Feiyang nodded lightly before she raised her hands to bow respectfully, "I''ve lost. You''re the superior fighter. Therefore we can only leave."

    There was no hatred or icy look on her countenance. There was only a nonchnt look.

    She turned to apologize to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "I''m sorry that today I''m unable to win back your honor. I''m truly sorry."

    Hua Wuwu looked pitifully at Ling Feiyang, "It''s alright. You''ve already done your very best."

    "That''s right." Hua Baiyue nodded almost tearfully. "He is a bully and he has an unfair advantage with a divine sword. Moreover, he is also a high level sword energy practitioner. He doesn''t even dare to engage in a fair fight with you."

    Ling Feiyang smiled weakly, "I''m truly sorry."

    After she had said that, she had turned to walk away.

    Yuan Ji was slightly startled. It was because he did not expect that the duel would end so fast. It was obvious to him that Ling Feiyang still have plenty of fights left in her eyes and he had not humiliated her enough.

    He could not understand why she had conceded so fast and so early?

    Li Ye was also startled, "We''ve won?"

    All the onlookers were dumbfounded as well.

    Although Yuan Ji''s sword energy techniques were formidable but they could all see that Ling Feiyang was able to tank his attack. As long as Ling Feiyang could hold onto her defenses, Yuan Ji was bounded to exhaust his profound strength sooner orter and she could counter-attack.

    Moreover the weakness of a sword energy practitioner is obvious; their defensive profound auras are much weaker as they have to channel all their profound strength to the offensive. It did not seem to the onlookers that Ling Feiyang has lost his advantage yet.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji shouted, "Young Master Ling, please wait!"

    Ling Feiyang turned around and asked curiously, "Yes? You have additional demands?"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "You have not lost. I''ve lost. Therefore please allow me to apologize to everyone."

    When he had said that, he gave a respectful bow before he had turned around to walk away.

    Everyone: ???

    Ling Feiyang: ???

    The reason why Yuan Ji had suddenly conceded was because he had realized that Ling Feiyang was tanking all his sword energies because she did not want the dangerous sword energies to hurt the onlookers.

    And she had conceded early because she did not want any of the onlookers to be hurt during their duel.

    He had been too eager to win Ling Feiyang that he had overlooked his martial honor.

    He was left muttering to himself, "How can an unorthodox be more orthodox than a true orthodox like me? Is she really the same Ling Feiyang as a hundred years ago?"

    The Ling Feiyang that he had recalled a hundred years ago had used trickery to defeat Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue during their duel. Therefore he did not have a good impression of her.

    The only good impression that he had of her were her enchanting enticing smiles that were so soul-snatching that he had a hard on while looking at her.

    "Wait!" This time it was Ling Feiyang who had called out to him.

    Yuan Ji turned around to look curiously at her, "Yes? You have additional demands to make?"

    Ling Feiyang returned a gentle smile, "If this hero does not mind, I will like to invite you for a drink?"

    Yuan Ji was startled by her invitation but he quickly said, "I don''t mind at all as long as someone else is paying the tabs."

    Just as he was about to sigh secretly how he should approach Ling Feiyang to ask her about Xia Jiajia, she had actually invited him to a drink.

    This was a good opportunity that he could not waste!

 Chapter 46 Ling Feiyue

    Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyang, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Li Ye were now sitting in a personal room at a tavern.

    Ling Feiyang was now looking curiously at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "They are really your sisters?"

    Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "Indeed they are. They are Li Wu and Li Yue."

    He was secretly frowning.

    It was because when Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu had overheard that Ling Feiyang was inviting Yuan Ji for a drink, they were all suddenly friendly toward Yuan Ji again.

    Hua Wuwuughed, "Indeed we are siblings. I hope that Young Master Ling does not mind the tease."

    "We are actually afraid just now and that is why we have lied to you." Hua Baiyue giggled softly. "Here is a toast for you as our sincere apologies."

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes. It was obvious that these two lovely saintesses were interested in Ling Feiyang than anything else. Luckily he was not envious because he knew that Ling Feiyang was actually a maiden.

    But for Li Ye, he had an ugly expression because Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were toasting and talking to Ling Feiyang all this while; they did not even offer him a single toast or a single word.

    "Here, one more toast from us!" Hua Wuwuughed as she cuddled nearer and nearer to Ling Feiyang.

    While the two saintesses were toasting to Ling Feiyang, Yuan Ji was quietly observing Ling Feiyang. She was exactly like a hundred years ago, taking only a gentle sip of the wine cup as she drinks each time.

    Even Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were drinking faster than her.

    He just could not understand what kind of a person was this Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue?

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Ling Feiyang seemed to be looking at him more often than the others.

    Ling Feiyang quickly averted her eyes when she noticed that Yuan Ji was also looking at her.

    She quickly smiled and said gently to everyone, "Let me offer a toast to everyone here. This toast is also to apologize to all of you earlier."

    "Are you all from the same celestial n? May I know what your celestial n of origin is?" She added curiously.

    Yuan Ji quickly said with a weak smile, "We are unable to disclose to you for the time being. I hope that Young Master Ling will pardon us for not sharing with you."

    Ling Feiyang returned a gentle smile, "Don''t worry, I do not mind at all. I perfectly understand if you do not want to share. Everyone has their difficulties and secrets. I''m not the one type that likes to look into others'' secrets."

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes as he cursed silently, "Are you sure you don''t like to look into others'' secrets? Have you forgotten what you have asked me to do a hundred years ago?

    All of a sudden he noticed that she was secretly looking at him.

    "Why did she keep looking into my direction? Has she discovered my identity?"

    "This shouldn''t be. Xue Qianxue had discovered my identity because I had dropped into her bathtub in the past and I had given her such a ''good'' impression of myself. But for Ling Feiyue, I don''t think she recognizes me or else she won''t invite me for a drink."

    Ling Feiyue had also noticed that Yuan Ji was constantly looking at her and there was a slight flush on her cheeks¡­

    "Is there anything on my face?" she asked Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji was silently startled by her.

    "Why is she aiming me? Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue are both staring at her all this while and she didn''t even say a single word."

    But he quickly smiled and said, "I seem to have seen you before."

    "Oh?"

    "One hundred years ago in a small town. You are with a most beautiful maiden. The two of you are such a beautiful couple and that is why I can still remember you. I still can''t forget her peerless look till to this day. Is she your consort?"

    There were two burning looks of envious that came from Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as they listened in to Yuan Ji.

    Ling Feiyang heaved a soft sigh, "She is indeed a most alluring maiden but unfortunately she isn''t my consort nor is she my partner. As a matter of fact, I''ve never seen her after that day."

    All of a sudden the smiles had returned to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as they giggled, "Forget about her! She doesn''t know what is good for her!"

    Yuan Ji pretended to sigh with pity, "s! What a pity! Pardon me for asking. But what is her name? If I have an opportunity, I will like to seek her out."

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyang returned him an annoyed look before she said gently, "I forget."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "It is impossible for her to forget. She just did not want to tell me. Never mind, I had already known that she is Xia Jiajia."

    Ling Feiyang had suddenly interrupted his thoughts as she asked, "Are you here for the trial as well?"

    Yuan Li asked curiously, "There is a trial in this part?"

    Ling Feiyang exined, "Every thirty years, the forbidden gates of the Lotus Sword Mansion will be opened to the cultivators. I am actually here for the trial."<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Li was startled. In the past, he had always missed the trials for the Lotus Sword Mansion one way or another. The trials of the Lotus Sword Mansion were extremely dangerous but it was also a ce for cultivators to obtain their lucky urrences and to find profound treasures.

    And of course an opportunity for the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators to battle each other.

    He quickly replied, "I have heard of the Lotus Sword Mansion''s Trials as well but I''ve no real opportunity to try it. I guess that this time I''m lucky to be here on time."

    "But Young Master Ling, you''re really interested to take the trials?" He asked curiously. It was because with Ling Feiyue''s background, she had actually nock of profound treasures and cultivation treasures. Unless of course, she was greedy for more.

    "I mean, do you really need to take the risk? It is because you look like you''re well-to-do." He quickly added.

    Ling Feiyang nodded lightly, "I actually hope to obtain a powerful spirit entity to cultivate for my soul sea. So far, I have been quite unlucky. Therefore I''m thinking of entering the Lotus Sword Mansion for a lucky urrence."

    Yuan Li smiled bitterly, "I''ve actually no luck in obtaining a spirit entity as well."

    When a cultivator reached the sixth realm golden supremacy level which was also called the spirit level, they would be able to fuse the spirit cores of the high ranking deste beasts that they had in as their spirit entity.

    There were several advantages for having a spirit entity. Firstly, a spirit entity would enhance the profound strength of the cultivator, giving an advantage over the same realm level cultivator that did not possess one.

    Secondly depending on the spirit cores of the deste beasts that were captured, it may affect the flow of profound energies, spirit force absorption, profound power, profound aura etc. to some extend.

    However only a sixth rank and higher deste beast may drop a spirit core. Even so, the chance for an intact spirit core to form was only a measly 1%. Therefore it was not easy to obtain the spirit core of a high ranking deste beast.

    The Lotus Sword Mansion''s Trials were renowned for having a higher rate for the spirit cores to form which was estimated to be around 5% chance.  Although this was still quite low but it was still many times higher than venturing into the unknown deste mists that were at the bottom of the mountains to seek a spirit core.

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "If Brother Li Yuan does not mind at all, we can take the trial together."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue said at the same time, "We''re going as well!"

    Ling Feiyang was startled as she said gently to them, "This isn''t a good idea. Although you are fifth realm golden celestials, it is still going to be a difficult trial."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue said at the same time, "We''re not afraid."

    Hua Baiyue chuckled, "If Young Master Ling isn''t afraid, why we should be afraid?"

    Ling Feiyang heaved a soft sigh before she said, "Actually, I am sorry for not telling everyone earlier. I am actually a seventh realm saint."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were gasping softly but they were soon smiling with delight.

    Li Ye was stunned, "What?! You are a golden saint?!"

    Yuan Ji pretended to be surprised. After all he had already known that she was a middle seventh realm saintess.

    "I''ve the intention toplete the entire trials for the Lotus Sword Mansion and to leave my name behind. Therefore I hope the two maidens understand the risks and stay put." Ling Feiyang exined with great gentleness to the two sisters.

    Hua Wuwu chuckled softly, "We''re not afraid. Which tier of the seventh realm are you at now?"

    Yuan Ji thought, "She is in the middle seventh realm level but she will probably lie to them that she is at the initial seventh realm level."

    "I don''t wish to lie to the two maidens. I''m a Great Saint."

    When she had said that, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were so startled that they were gasping. A Great Saint was at the upper seventh realm sacred saint level.

    Only 1 out of 100 saints can ever seed into bing a great saint. It was because before they could be a great saint, they had to first ovee the lightning tribtion.

    As for Yuan Ji and Li Ye, they were so startled that they nearly fell backward from their chairs.

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned. This was not possible?! How did she be a great saintess so quickly?!

    Ling Feiyang said quietly as she looked at Yuan Ji, "Brother Li Yuan, if I am not wrong in my guess, you are actually a seventh realm expert. From our earlier exchanges, I can gauge that much. Therefore there is no need to hide it from me anymore."

    Li Ye stared at Yuan Ji with astonishment, "You¡­are¡­also a seventh realm saint?!"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "So you are only pretending to lose to me¡­Great Saint¡­"

    The gap between an initial seventh realm saint and an upper seventh realm great saint was vast. There was almost a 60% profound strength differences and the recovery rate of a great saint was also two notches better.

    "I''ve better not let her know that I''m Ji Yuan or I will be dead. After a hundred years, I''m still nowhere closer to her attainment level."

    He estimated that his odds of winning a great saintess were only around 5% chance.

    Forget about humiliating her, he would be the one getting humiliated instead.

    But at least when he saw that the adorable look that Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were disying in front of Ling Feiyue, he was secretly gloating. It was because they did not know that Ling Feiyang was actually Ling Feiyue and that ''he'' was actually a maiden. He was now imagining the disappointing looks of their faces when they had eventually found out about the truth.

    Li Ye had a heartbroken look as he stared nkly at Ling Feiyang and the two lovely maidens. Great Saint! How was he going to catch up with this Ling Feiyang and to win the hearts of these two lovely maidens?

 Chapter 47 Prelude To The Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (1)

    Three dayster, Yuan Ji and the two saintess sisters had gathered in a deste valley that was thirty miles away from the border town.

    When he had reached the deste valley, more than five thousand cultivators had already arrived and they were all filling the deste valley with their loud chatters.

    Li Ye was not around as Yuan Ji had asked him to take up his duties as an elder immediately. After giving him a token of the Emperor Hall Sect and a voice transmission slip that recorded a message for Fairy Ye Chengxi, Yuan Ji had bid him farewell.

    He had patted Li Ye on his shoulder with a mischievous grin, "Don''t worry. I have a way to make sure Ling Feiyang keeps his distance away from my sisters. But whether you can sessfully woo my sisters is another matter entirely."

    When Li Ye heard him, he was delighted immediately and happily went on his way.

    "Ling Feiyang won''t like my sisters because he is a maiden. Haha. As for whether you can sessfully woo these two saintess sisters, it is none of my business."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly as he quickly grew solemn, "I''ve only said that because you are troubled by the matters of the heart. You must know that we are all celestial cultivators and we ought to cultivate our hearts first or else your life and death tribtions would be a woeful one."

    He had already been through three life and death tribtions so naturally he knew it better than anyone else.

    Hisst tribtion was actually a roller coaster ride and there were a few times that he had thought that he had almost lost it. But it was the hundred year pledge that Xia Jiajia had given him that had steeled his heart and had ovee his regrets for him, enabling him to eventually ovee his Seventh Realm Life and Death Tribtion.

    "Brother Li Yuan." A gentle voice called to him and it was Ling Feiyang.

    "Young Master Ling!" Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue called out to him with a soft chuckle.

    "Brother Ling." Yuan Ji greeted him.

    Ling Feiyang frowned lightly when she saw Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "Li Wu, Li Yue. You are here too? Didn''t I ask you not toe¡­"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled softly, "Don''t worry, we won''t enter the trial and we will just stay put here."

    "That''s right." Hua Baiyueughed softly. "We''re here to lend the two of you our spiritual support."

    Ling Feiyang heaved a soft sigh of relief. "That''s great."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were secretly winking at each other. After they had realized that Ling Feiyang was actually a seventh realm great saint, they had decided to stay put. It was because they were pretending to be only a fifth realm cultivator and they did not want Ling Feiyang to know that they were also at the seventh realm level.

    Yuan Ji knew that they were trying to portray themselves as vulnerable maidens and he was secretly smiling, "If Ling Feiyue knows that they are the cold blood killers from the Hundred Flower Divine Flower, I wonder what she will thinks?"

    He did not want to expose their deceits to Ling Feiyang because their matters got nothing to do with him. Moreover, he may still need ''their'' protection.

    However there was a slight problem with his ns now. Originally he had needed their protection when he was confronting the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. But due to a chance encounter with ''Ling Feiyang'' in the town here, his two undependable protectors had now fallen in love with him.

    "Well, that''s why they are my undependable protectors in the first ce."

    He added with another muse, "I''m actually grateful to them for helping me to pass my message to Qianxue. At least we are all technically ''friends'' for the next four months before we officially be enemies."

    All of a sudden he saw a group of cultivators had approached them. It was actually led by Duan Tian.

    "Young Master Ling!" Duan Tian hastily greeted him. "You''re here as well."

    "Supremacy Duan Tian." Ling Feiyang greeted gently.

    "Since Young Master Ling is also here, why don''t you join me instead? My group has three supremacies, three celestials and thirty others. We will definitely have an easier time together. After all, the dangers of the Lotus Sword Mansion are many and there are no deste beasts that are below the fifth rank inside."

    Then Dian Tian said in a low voice, "We can also offer you some protection against the other cultivators. After all, there are many unorthodox cultivators presented here as well."

    Ling Feiyang returned a gentle smile, "I have already agreed to go with Brother Li Yuan here."

    Duan Tian frowned as he stared at Yuan Ji, "Alright then but if you change your mind, please let me know anytime."

    Yuan Ji grinned sarcastically as he put his hands to his back, "I shall not see you off."

    Dian Tian ignored himpletely as he left with his group.

    Yuan Ji turned to ask Ling Feiyang, "Are you sure that you do not want to go with him? His group is a formidable one. I really don''t mind entering the trial alone."

    Ling Feiyang shook his head gently, "Actually I don''t really know him that well."

    Yuan Ji was surprised to hear that, "But you are addressing the wrongs for him a while back and you have even confronted me because of him."

    "He had shown me some hospitality when I had first arrived in the town. His War Sovereign Sect is one of the five major influences in these parts." Ling Feiyang exined nonchntly.

    Yuan Ji found himself staring at her as he pondered with a perplexed look, "Why did she always keep a nonchnt look? If I haven''t seen her mesmerizing chuckles in the mountain wilderness that time, I will find it hard to believe that they are actually the same person."

    He still remembered her mesmerizing chuckles that caused him to have a sinful look at her at that time.

    He quickly pulled himself from his thoughts, "Let''s not forget that you have already offended her. If she were to find out who you are, she will not hesitate to kill you in the next instant."

    "And let''s not forget that you are only making use of her to find out where Jiajia is and who she is."

    Ling Feiyang had suddenly interrupted his thoughts as she asked him, "Brother Li Yuan, may I know what are your odds against the sixth rank and seventh rank deste beasts?"

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sign, "50/50 for a sixth rank deste beast and 30% chance against a seventh rank deste beasts."

    A sixth rank deste beast was equivalent to the strength of a sixth rank supremacy and a seventh rank deste beast was equivalent to a saint level cultivator.

    As for eighth and ninth rank deste beasts, they were stronger than most saints and even great saints may perish in a one to one fight with them.

    Ling Feiyang nodded lightly, "Since there are two of us, a single sixth rank deste beast may not be so threatening. However a seventh rank deste beast is another matter entirely. We should try to avoid a fight with the higher rank deste beasts unless it is absolutely necessary."

    Yuan Ji nodded. It was sheermon sense.

    All of a sudden, there were severalrgemotions from the thousands of cultivators that had gathered.<sub> </sub>

    It was because a group of fierce looking cultivators had suddenly entered into the valley.

    "It is the Flying Daggers Divine Sect..."

    "Their leader is Saint Mo Xingku. He is an initial seventh realm expert. He had killed countless number of cultivators¡­"

    "Shhh. Not so loud!"

    "There are rules against fighting here. Moreover, there are so many righteous orthodox cultivators around here. Do we need to be afraid of these unorthodox cultivators?"

    "Look, there is Saint Wu Heng from the Burning Heavens Pavilion. The Burning Heavens Pavilion is one of the seven major orthodox ns. With him around, that Saint Mo Xingku will not dare to be reckless."

    "There are actually two powers from the seven major orthodox ns here today. Over there is the Profound Heaven Sword Manor. The Profound Heaven Sword Manor is among the top three orthodox powers."

    "There are many geniuses in the ranks of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and their Profound Heaven Sword is ranked as the best sword art in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    "There are no sights of the three unorthodox powers?"

    "What? Are you praying for your death wish?"

    "Hehe. I''m just wondering if we can get to see the astonishing beauty of the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    "You''re such a lecher¡­"

    "Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue are the two beautiful goddesses of the Deste Celestial Fraternity before we have the four great beauties."

    "I''ve heard that Fairy Ye Chengxi had recently got married. I wonder who that lucky bastard?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Bastard? He calls me a bastard?" He was frowning lightly.

    "And Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing has gone missing now. So I guess that we only have two eligible goddesses leftover now..."

    "No one will be able to court Xue Qianxue sessfully. She has devoted herself to the Great Dao of Cultivation. I have heard that she is on a verge of bing a great saintess."

    "There is a rumor that Xue Qianxue had a real chance of bing a great saintess if she was able to defeat Ling Feiyue in a secret duel between them a hundred years ago."

    "s, it is a pity that Ling Feiyue seemed to have gained an upper hand and she was able to elevate her state of divinity to a higher level after that secret duel. Later on, she had challenged the Lightning Tribtion and had ovee it. Now she is among the top cultivators of the unorthodox fraternity."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he listened to the conversations of the cultivators. He really did not know the secret duel that he had witnessed was so important to both Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. And he had screwed up Xue Qianxue''s chance of bing a great saintess.

    He was beginning to feel a sense of hostilities toward Ling Feiyue as he stole a nce at her.

    When Ling Feiyue suddenly saw that Yuan Ji was looking at her, she returned a gentle smile to him while continuing her chitchat with Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    When Yuan Ji saw that she had suddenly smiled at him, his hostilities had suddenly vanished from his face.

    He was suddenly growling to himself, "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. Do not fall for her beauty trick. Have you forgotten that she had yed you a hundred years ago? Yes, she had yed you a hundred years ago with Xia Jiajia. But I can feel that Xia Jiajia is sincere toward me. I had only given her a worthless precious sword and in return, she had given me an earth grade divine sword."

    All of a sudden he had a scary thought. What if Xia Jiajia was being held against her will and was forced to help Ling Feiyue?

    "I can''t trust Ling Feiyuepletely. It is because I know that she is only telling me a half-truth. Obviously she knows who Xia Jiajia is but she just refuses to tell me. Of course she doesn''t want anyone to know what had happened a hundred year ago. She had used guile to win the duel with Xue Qianxue."

    All of a sudden a group of prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor had descended upon him as they surrounded him.

    "You there! Do you still remember us?" A golden celestial was staring coldly at him.

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes as he frowned lightly, "Do I even know you at all? I don''t think that we have even met before¡­"

    The golden celestial interrupted him coldly, "You certainly have a short memory. Aren''t you so arrogant at the Holy Maidens Peaks a month ago? You''re the only person that Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is willing to see. That is so weird. After you had seen her, she had suddenly announced that she is entering into a cultivation retreat. It is really such a coincidence, don''t you think so?"

    This golden celestial was actually Third Young Master Jian Menghao. That day when he had heard that Xue Qianxue was only willing to see him, he was one of those that had jumped off the mountain cliff in great despair.

    But of course, he was not killed by the great fall and had survived. After all, those that had jumped off the mountain cliffs were all golden celestials and their golden bodies were able to take a great deal of punishments. It was their way of venting their frustrations and their broken hearts.

    "I''m Third Young Master Jian Menghao. Just you wait! I will get you inside the trial. Don''t let me catch you." With that he had coldly walked off with his group.

    Yuan Ji was frowning lightly after Jian Menghao had left.

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Ling Feiyue was suddenly staring coldly at him and he got a startled fright.

    She must have overheard their earlier conversations that he had gone to see Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had a personal feud with Xue Qianxue.

    Before the trial had started, he had already offended Jian Menghao and Ling Feiyue!

    All of a sudden the groups that were from the Burning Heavens Pavilion and Flying Dagger Divine Sect were all pointing at him and were saying, "Yes, we are sure. He is the one that has sheltered Li Ye."

    Yuan Ji suddenly had a sheepish look as he cursed silently, "Li Ye, why didn''t you tell me that you have also offended the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Flying Dagger Divine Sect at the same time too?"

    Now he had four groups of enemies to deal with.

    It was a lucky thing that the two sister saintesses were still on his side.

    No, better make it five groups of enemies. They are so undependable and are obviously siding with Ling Feiyue¡­

    All of a sudden there were shouts from the cultivators in front of them, "The trials are opening now..."

 Chapter 48 Prelude To The Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (2)

    The Lotus Sword Mansion was not a mansion at all despite it being called a mansion. As a matter of fact, it looked nothing like a mansion at all and was just a portal in a little known valley that was situated between the treacherous mountains.

    The reason why it was called the Lotus Sword Mansion was because a heaven-step divine sword with lotus mark was one of the first profound treasures that were found within the ce. As for why it was called a mansion, it was because it was a mansion of profound treasures when it was first investigated by the ancient celestials.

    But of course as time passed by, the profound treasures that could be found be less frequent and thepetition for the profound treasures would also intensify.

    However it did not defer the courageous andpetitive cultivators.

    It was because obtaining a profound treasure was a huge achievement, especially for the smaller celestial ns. Once a profound treasure was obtained, it could even be passed down as a heritage treasure to remember by their once venerable patriarchs and matriarchs, reminding the future prot¨¦g¨¦s that their celestial ns once had a colorful celestial history.

    Yuan Ji also had a heritage heaven-step precious sword christened Sky Forth that was passed down to him by his venerable n patriarchs. But it was gone now, exchanged as a pledge to Xia Jiajia.

    He may have lost a heaven-step precious sword but in return, Xia Jiajia had given to him an earth-step divine sword christened Resonate Peak.

    In his heart, Xia Jiajia was worth more than the profound treasures of his entire sect. But did she really know how he had felt for her?

    "Maybe she doesn''t know that I''m Ji Yuan at all. She is definitely a bimbo¡­"

    "Aiya, I should have told her at the very start. But what if she suddenly decides to break off with me because I''ve lost my beard?"

    Finding Xia Jiajia was now his quest. He had to tell her that he was Ji Yuan and he wanted to know her heart for him.

    But whenever he recalled seeing her delightful expression as she strolled down the Thousand Cloud Peaks, he began to frown and wondered if she was actually d to get rid of him and the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Right now, Yuan Ji was keenly watching the entrance of the valley and saw that the deste mists were now shimmering. It was a clear sign that the mysterious portal to the Lotus Sword Mansion was now opened.

    Above the valley was an auspicious colorful cloud that had appeared a month earlier and when the portals had closed, this auspicious omen would then disappear.

    Throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity, there were dozens of trials that would open at interval periods. The longer the period, the more plentiful the cultivation and profound treasures could be found. And of course, the greater the dangers it would be.

    The trials of the Lotus Sword Mansion would open every thirty years; this was actually just an average estimate because no one could be sure of its actual opening time unless an auspicious omen had appeared over the vicinity. Sometimes it would open after an interval of sixty years and sometimes it would open after an interval of twenty years.

    Many of the more formidable trials had a longer interval period of 100 to 1000 years before it could be seen again.

    By the trials standard, the Lotus Sword Mansion was considered to be a poor man''s trial. It was because it had a shorter interval between each appearance. Usually the deste beasts that were within the portal were also of the lower ranks for the shorter interval trials.

    However this was not the case here with the Lotus Sword Mansion. The deste beasts inside were actually high ranking deste beasts. It had a high risk warning attached to this trial and the rewards inside were actually much higher than the average trials.

    That was why even the top two major orthodox ns had shown their interests here today and that was why the valley was packed with thousands of above average cultivators.

    Hundreds of cultivators were now moving quickly toward the shimmering deste mists below the valley.

    There was actually no portal to be seen because the entire shimmering deste mists were actually the portal. Once anyone had passed through the shimmering deste mists, they would be taken inside the trials of the Lotus Sword Manor.

    ording to the knowledge that Yuan Ji knew about the Lotus Sword Manor, the trials inside consisted of five difficulty levels and no two trials were alike and it would also change the next time.

    At the end of every level, there was a portal to exit the trial or a portal to the next trial level.

    Therefore the cultivators had to carefully weight their options to exit or to continue on.

    Yuan Ji was now making his way toward the shimmering portal as he began to follow the crowd that was ahead of him.

    Usually the portals would open for a short period of time which typicallysted between three to nine hours.

    Although the trials had a short opening, the trials mayst for days, months and even years depending on its nature.

    "You are not waiting for me?" Ling Feiyang said quietly as she appeared next to him.

    Yuan Ji returned an awkward smile, "I don''t want to disturb your chat with my sisters. Moreover, I''ve decided to enter the trials alone."

    "You don''t need me to help you to deal with your enemies?" Ling Feiyue asked gently.

    Yuan Ji returned a weak smile but said nothing. He was also afraid that Ling Feiyue would suddenly turn against him during the trial. That was why he had decided to enter the trials on his own.

    "I¡­I have a feud with Xue Qianxue. I admit that I''m not happy that you have been to see her." Ling Feiyang said quietly.

    Yuan Ji was startled that Ling Feiyue had suddenly admitted to him that she had a feud with Xue Qianxue.

    "My feud with Xue Qianxue has nothing to do with you." There was a troubled look on her countenance when she had said that.

    But she quickly smiled and asked gently, "So, can we travel together?"

    Yuan Ji said nonchntly, "I''m not stopping you from following me."

    He was sighing secretly. He was not stupid. He knew that Ling Feiyang would try to ask him next what his rtionship with Xue Qianxue was before deciding what to do with him.

    Never make friends with an unorthodox cultivator or you will be the one that is suffering in the future. That was what his old master had always warned him.

    He knew that Ling Feiyue was an unorthodox cultivator and that she was only pretending to be an orthodox cultivator. Once she had assumed her identity as the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue again, she would be like the other unorthodox cultivators that would impose her will upon the weak and the powerless.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were shouting behind them, "We will wait for you here. Good luck!"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled, "And don''t die."

    Hua Baiyue giggled to her sister, "He can die but Young Master Feiyang cannot die."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji ignored the teases that were from behind him and after a while, he had stepped through the shimmering deste mists with Ling Feiyang.

    There was a ncing bright light as they stepped through the portal.

    Yuan Ji found himself with dozens of other cultivators and they were overlooking an imposing mountain cliff that reached to the clouds.

    The dozens of cultivators were all looking at one another as they muttered among themselves.<sub> </sub>

    "This¡­"

    "Where are we?"

    "Where the exit portal?"

    "You have not even attempted the trial yet and you''re already thinking of leaving?"

    "He must be new. The exit portal can only be found at the end of the level. Once we have entered the trial, it is impossible to quit halfway until you canplete the first level."

    "Usually the first level is quite easy and risk free."

    "So we need to climb up this steep cliff to the next level?"

    "It appears to be so."

    "How steep is this cliff to the top?"

    "I can only see the clouds¡­"

    "10 miles?"

    Yuan Ji took a quiet nce at Ling Feiyang before he turned to look at the dozens of cultivators that were presented. Except for Duan Tian and his group which was unfriendly toward him, there was no sight of any of his so call ''enemies'' around.

    ? He had actually considered Duan Tian and his group to be a non-threatening group and did not put them into his enemy list.

    When the thousands of cultivators had entered through the shimmering deste mists, they would all be split and taken to different locations.

    Therefore Yuan Ji was not surprised to see that he was not grouped with his enemies as he had purposely avoided taking the same path as them.

    Duan Tian wasughing jovially as he shouted over to Yuan Ji, "So who do we have here? Li Yuan! We have met so soon again!"

    Yuan Ji ignored him as he pretended to look the other way.

    His group consisted of six other golden celestials and more than thirty cultivators that were all between the third and fourth realm levels.

    Duan Tian''s voice was now thergest because he had realized that his group was the most powerful andrgest group in this ce.

    "We''re climbing this steep cliff now. The whole lots of you have better not disturb our climb or don''t me us for being nasty. This side of the cliff is ours so may the rest of you please go over to the other sides. Haha."

    Duan Tian''s sharp eyes had immediately picked the spot where it was the easiest to make the climb.

    Yuan Ji began to frown lightly when he had heard Duan Tian.

    He turned to say to Ling Feiyang, "Let''s pick a spot to climb up the cliff."

    "So how do you know Xue Qianxue?" Ling Feiyang had suddenly asked him.

    He was startled by how swift her question had arrived.

    So he could only smile bitterly as he answered her, "We should be focusing on the trial first, right?"

    Ling Feiyang slowly returned a nod before she smiled gently, "Why don''t we have a contest to see who is able to get to the top first?"

    Yuan Ji grinned to her before saying coolly, "No, thanks. You can go ahead of me first."

    Ling Feiyang: ¡­

    The reason why Yuan Ji had rejected her request topete was because he had seen her lightless skill before and it was much superior to his.

    Ling Feiyang smiled gently, "I can give you a head start over me."

    Yuan Ji had suddenly turned around to her and he was grinning, "Since I ampeting toplete the entire trial and you are the same, why don''t wepete all the way to the end then?"

    "This sounds good to me." Ling Feiyang chuckled softly.

    "But only from the second trial onward." Yuan Ji grinned.

    Ling Feiyang: ¡­

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had disyed his profound animus. He had suddenly stepped on the steep cliff and was moving up rapidly!

    When the dozens of cultivators saw that Yuan Ji had disyed a profound animus that had the equivalent profound strength of a seventh realm level, they were all stunned.

    Moreover even without his profound animus disy, Yuan Ji had regarded his own lightless skill among the very top.

    Therefore the spirited speed that he was making up the steep cliff had also astonished all the onlookers.

    And of course the most stunned person was actually Duan Tian who had never expected that this Li Yuan was actually a seventh realm saint.

    He was now stammering, "He¡­he is¡­actually a saint level cultivator?! I''ve offended a saint¡­after I''m done with the trial here, I''m going for a hasty breakthrough to preserve my life¡­"

    All of a sudden there was another seventh realm level profound animus that had burst out from Ling Feiyang as she flew up the steep cliffs with her hurried steps.

    Once again Duan Tian was shocked, "This Young Master Ling Feiyang is also a seventh realm golden saint?!"

    Many of the golden supremacies were actually preparing to show off their skills against one another and were gleefully saying out loud, "Let''s see who can reach the top first."

    But when they saw that two seventh realm experts had suddenly appeared from their midst and had started to ascend up the steep cliff rapidly, they all had a sheepish look.

    In front of these two seventh realm experts and their astonishing disy of lightness profound art, they were just like little monkeys.

    There were many golden celestials that were now sighing heavily, "Even if I am a seventh realm saint, I may not be as good as them in their lightless profound arts."

    "They didn''t even use their hands to grab onto the cliffs and are running along the cliff instead. This is too crazy."

 Chapter 49 Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (1)

    When Yuan Ji had entered into theyer of cloud canopy that was five miles up the steep cliff, his ascend had slowed down to a crawl and he was unable to use his lightless profound art.

    It was because the winds on this level were howling fiercely and the pressure had suddenly increased three folds.

    He was now relying on his profound strength as he gripped onto the steep cliff as he crawled vertical upward.

    He took a quiet look down below and was quite startled to see that Ling Feiyang was still a good distance from him below.

    "Why is she so slow?"

    He had actually expected for her to catch up with him. It was because in terms of lightless profound art, profound strength and profound recovery, she was his superior.

    Once a while, he would purposely slow down for her to catch up with him but Ling Feiyang would continue to stay the same distance away from him.

    When he stopped all of a sudden, she would pause too to inhale deeply.

    He thought weakly, "This is too fake and her yacting is too poor."

    Eventually he had reached the very top of the steep mountain cliff and in front of him were two portals, one blue and one green.

    "It takes me almost an hour to reach the very top¡­"

    The green portal would lead him to the outside while the blue portal would lead him to the next level.

    A burst of speeding light flew forth from the heavens toward him.

    Yuan Ji caught hold of the speeding light and saw that it was a fifth rank profound pill and it was actually the Red Dragon Divine Pill."

    He was secretly delighted.

    To Yuan Ji, this reward was actually extremely good. It was because other than the Red Dragon Divine Pill that Shangguan Yan had given to him, he had never had a second fifth rank profound pill in his life before.

    This was actually the second.

    Soon after he had obtained his reward, Ling Feiyang had also stepped on the cliff.

    There was a burst of speeding light that flew toward her and her reward was actually a third rank profound pill.

    Yuan Ji was actually quite surprised to see that her reward foring second ce was actually so worthless. He had expected her to obtain something better.

    Ling Feiyang smiled when she saw his expression.

    "The first time reward is usually better. I''ve actually been here quite a few times already but I''ve neverpleted the full trial. This is your first time here?"

    Yuan Ji slowly nodded. It was because he never had the opportunity to take the trials at the Lotus Sword Mansion.

    "It''s no wonder and moreover you got first ce too. Therefore your reward is exceptional good. What did you get?"

    "I''ve got a Red Dragon Divine Pill."

    Ling Feiyang gasped softly, "This is really a good reward. You must be really delightful with your reward. This divine pill will be helpful to your cultivation."

    As Yuan Ji was nning to give it to his Yan''Er, he merely smiled at her suggestion.

    Ling Feiyang smiled before adding, "Your lightless profound art is actually quite startling. It should be ranked among the top five or top ten in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. What is the name of your lightless profound art?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Hovering Leaf Maneuver. You will probably never hear of it before."

    Ling Feiyang was forced to admit it. It was definitely not in the list of a hundred renowned lightless profound arts that she knew. "But it is actually better than most of the lightless profound arts that I know."

    Actually Yuan Ji had concealed the best of his lightless profound art in front of her because he still did not trust her. When he was at the peaked golden supremacy level, he had already regarded his lightless profound art in the top five. Now that he was at the initial sacred saint level, his lightness profound art was even better than before.

    But he did not want topete with Ling Feiyang because he was actually keeping this as his secret trump card for running away from her.

    He may not win her but he was actually quite confidence in his ability to outrun her.

    He knew that Ling Feiyang was now secretly probing his secret skills. Actually he was also trying to observe her secret skills so that when they start to fight, he would have an advantage.

    He merely replied her, "I am just the better one among all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of my celestial n. Most of them aren''t that good. Matter of fact, they can''t even get to the top 1000th ranking. Haha."

    He was actually not lying to her.

    Ling Feiyang was startled. It was because any profound arts should not have such a huge discrepancy. So she asked. "How did you train your lightless profound art to be better than the rest of your fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s?"

    Yuan Jiughed sheepishly, "My old master used to tie me to a tree at the top of the cliff and kicked me down the steep cliffs to force me to climb up. If I can''t climb up within three incense time, he will kick me down again. Each time, he will aim at my butt hard and kick me down."

    Ling Feiyang was startled, "Your old master is so mean¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed. His old master training method was pretty unorthodox and that was why he had never used it on Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    He sighed softly in his heart.<sub> </sub>

    He had really missed his funny old master after he had passed away. His training was extremely brutal under his old master because his old master had once said to him, "Our sect is a poor sect without any good cultivation methods and resources. Therefore as my leading core prot¨¦g¨¦ and only personal prot¨¦g¨¦, I am going to torture you to no ends."

    He really could not remember a single day when he was not injured or heavily bruised under his old master.

    "Alright, let''s go to the next level." He said as he forced out the past memories away before he walked toward the blue portal.

    Ling Feiyang nodded gently as she followed him with a quiet smile.

    Below the steep cliff, dozens of cultivators were struggling with the climb.

    It was really not as easy to them aspared to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang. Even the golden celestials were struggling to ascend the steep cliff at the five mile mid-point.

    It was even worst for the third and fourth realm cultivators.

    All in all, half of them would eventually fail and fall down the steep mountains.

    Their only constion was that if they could climb past the half mile height and if they had fallen from the steep cliff, they would be sent back harmlessly to the entrance of the valley again.

    Although many of the cultivators would fail on their first attempt or even multiple attempts, they were not disappointed as it was the experiences of the trial that counted.

    Most of the better cultivators would take an average of three hours toplete the climb and they were mostly the golden celestials.

    As for the lower realm level cultivators, it would take them an average of six hours toplete the climb and as long as twelve hours for the weakest.

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang had now stepped into the blue portal to the second trial.

    They had now emerged in a ce with tall cliffs around them and in the horizon that was surrounded by the deste mists was a tall iron pagoda.

    "What is this trial?" Yuan Ji turned to ask Ling Feiyang curiously.

    Ling Feiyang returned a weak smile, "I''ve no idea."

    "It seems that the goal of this trial is for us to reach this iron pagoda." Yuan Ji quietly said.

    Ling Feiyang nodded as she added, "Reaching that iron pagoda may only be the start. We may have to fight the deste beasts on the way there first. So shall we wait for the rest¡­"

    But Yuan Ji had already took a step forward as he smiled at her, "So are you afraid? If not, let''s go."

    Ling Feiyang flipped her fan to wave it as she returned a gentle smile, "You''re really a dare devil. If you are not afraid, will I be afraid?"

    As she watched his back, she was quietly thinking. "I wonder why I''m following his lead? He really gives me a familiar feeling like that Ji¡­Yuan."

    "Hmm, Ji Yuan¡­Li Yuan?"

    "Ji Yuan is a Sword Saint and this Li Yuan is also good with his sword¡­"

    "What am I thinking? If he is Ji Yuan, he will be running away from me¡­"

    "Why did he ask me about Xia Jiajia?"

    <o>,m "I really don''t remember seeing Li Yuan a hundred years ago¡­"</o>

    All of a sudden she had a perplexed look. It was because someone with a handsome look like Li Yuan was too noticeable but she did not have any impression of him at all.

    The number of golden celestials that she had encountered a hundred years ago in that small town could actually be counted with ten fingers and moreover, she had picked that small town for a reason.

    As a matter of fact, the only golden celestials that she had recalled were only Ji Yuan and the three other beautiful bearded cultivators, Xue Qianxue and Xia Jiajia.

    The reason why she was suddenly tailing Li Yuan was because she had a strange sense of familiarity about him that she could not put into words.

    "Can it be that he has shaved off his beard?"

    All of a sudden she had unfolded her fan and was pping it with the hands before she lit a slow smile, "Ji Yuan is said to have gone on a cultivation retreat for his seventh realm breakthrough and this Li Yuan happens to be at the saint level. This is really such a coincidence."

    "And I don''t believe in coincidences. When there are too many coincidences, it is never a coincidental."

    "Why are you still standing there for? Are you chickening it out?" Yuan Ji was frowning as he shouted to Ling Feiyang.

    "Nothing. I''m just thinking about something." Ling Feiyang returned a bashful smile.

    "Well if you still noting, I''m not waiting for you." Yuan Ji returned her an uninterested look before he turned his back on her again.

 Chapter 50 Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (2)

    In order to reach the iron pagoda in the horizon, Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang must first traverse the dangerous vast valley that was popted with dangerous deste beasts.

    And after moving cautiously for about twenty miles, they soon encounter their first deste beast.

    The looming shadow of arge deste beast that was five times their height was seen between the cliffs. It had three long ck horns on its massive head and four massive ws which it used to move its heavily armored body around.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang were both slightly rmed; it was because their divine sense had indicated to them that this deste beast was a sixth rank profound deste beast.

    There are altogether nine ranks to a deste beast in the Celestial Realm and every rank have three sses to denote the threatening level of the deste beast; Primordial, Profound and Epic.

    A profound ss deste beast is always be twice as powerful as a primordial ss deste beast of the same rank while an epic ss deste beast can be many times stronger depending on the species of the deste beasts.

    The epic ss of any deste beasts is always more dangerous and mysterious that any primordial and profound ss. Luckily epic ss deste beasts are not easy to be encountered and are extremely rare.

    A sixth rank primordial deste beast is more than a match for an upper golden supremacy to handle alone and moreover this is a sixth rank profound deste beast.

    Yuan Ji nodded as he said with a wary tone, "It is a ck Tyrannical Demon Beast. Very strong and heavily armored at the same time. If given a choice, we should avoid fighting it but it is now blocking our way."

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "We can always take a detour and find another way."

    Yuan Ji frowned. From her expression, it was more like a challenge to fight the deste beast rather than retreating away from it.

    So he said, "We may as well fight it and be on our way to the iron pagoda. If we can evade these deste beasts which are everywhere, this won''t be a trial anymore."

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "I will follow your lead."

    "Great saint, why don''t you make the first move?" Yuan Ji grinned at her. This was a perfect opportunity for him to observe her skills.

    Ling Feiyang nodded as she took out a metallic silver fan from her spatial belt.

    With a wave of her hand, the des of this metallic silver fan had suddenly expanded and formed into a beautiful blue long sword.

    A shaper divine sword that could take the form of a fan!

    Yuan Ji was startled by it.

    Yuan Ji was gasping softly and he was also looking sheepish now. It was because Ling Feiyang''s sword was actually a heaven-step divine sword which was a step higher than his earth-step divine sword.

    He was bitterly thinking, "She is from a top unorthodox n. Therefore it is not surprising that she has a divine sword. So she is just keeping her trump cards while we are fighting against each other three days ago. I should have guessed it."

    The reason why Ling Feiyang had decided to reveal her heaven-step divine sword was because she did not want to expend too much of her profound strength during the trial and that would affect her performances at theter trials.

    At the same time that Ling Feiyang had revealed her divine sword, Yuan Ji had also taken out his divine sword with his left hand.

    With light steps and a startling speed, Ling Feiyang had dashed to the unsuspecting ck Tyrannical Demon Beast and she was quickly followed by Yuan Ji.

    Her sword lights were apanied by the sword shadows from Yuan Ji as the two of them shed their swords against therge deste beast.

    With only a few shes, the profound powers that channeled through their divine swords had quickly prated through the thick armor of therge deste beast.

    In just ten blinks of an eye, the ck Tyrannical Demon Beast had crumbled onto the ground and it had vaporized into a dark smog.

    Under their fierce barrage of sword shes, the ck Tyrannical Demon Beast did not even have a chance to retaliate. All in all, they had unleashed more than one hundred shes in just ten blinks of an eye, averaging five shes each with each blink of an eye.

    ? "What a pity. There is no spirit core to be taken."

    Ling Feiyang smiled gently as she looked at Yuan Ji before adding further, "So what do you think of our first time cooperation?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. First time cooperation? More like second time.

    But he quickly said, "Not bad. But it is only a sixth rank deste beast."

    Ling Feiyang nodded and smiled, "I wonder how where did you learn your sword art from? Your master must be equally impressive. It will be my honor to know the name of your master and maybe I can even pick up a few tips."

    Yuan Ji was frowning. "You''re already a great saint in your cultivation. Both my master and I are not on your level. Moreover, my master is not around anymore¡­"

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "Or maybe I can have some pointers from you instead?"

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "Your swordy isn''t less superior to mine. In fact, it is a lot superior to mine in many ways. As you can see, my swordy is actually quite ordinary. If I''m not mistaken, you have actually shed more strokes than me earlier."

    Ling Feiyang smiled gently, "Maybe you have reacted slower than me. You are way faster when we are dueling a few days earlier."

    "Haha. Maybe today I''m not in the right form." Yuan Jiughed softly before he turned his back to continue his way.

    "You mention that you''re the only personal prot¨¦g¨¦ of your master. Then you must be really be so exceptional good?" Ling Feiyang quickly caught up to him as she asked.

    Yuan Ji was secretly cursing her. "Are you here for the trials or to check me out? She is trying to probe me to get a hint of my identity. I ought to be careful when I''m answering her questions."

    But he quickly replied with a soft chuckle, "Actually I was the weakest back then. Haha."

    "Oh? And yet you''ve managed to be a personal prot¨¦g¨¦?" Ling Feiyang asked curiously.

    Yuan Jiughed, "My old master had set a criteria to the ordinary prot¨¦g¨¦s that whoever wishes to be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and his personal prot¨¦g¨¦ had to first survive a beating from him first. If we can endure for an hour or we can beat our master then we are qualified."

    "Then you must be quite extraordinary back then?"

    "I was only a first realm practitioner level back then. How can I endure a beating from a sixth realm golden celestial like my master?" Yuan Ji smiled.

    "But eventually you did. How did you manage to do it?" Ling Feiyang was really curious to know.<sub> </sub>

    "After getting beaten up dozens of times, I''ve finally figured out a way." Yuan Ji replied proudly and his eyes were beaming. "I''ve beaten dozens of my seniors to be my master one and only personal prot¨¦g¨¦."

    "You must have undergone a rigorous body tempering training to be able to endure an hour of beating from your master?" Ling Feiyang offered a quick guess.

    "You got to be kidding me." Yuan Jiughed out loud. "I was only 16 then. A punch from a golden celestial will surely break my bones and my master is quite a sadist. He makes sure that we are all lying on the bed for several months each time we attempt to pass his core prot¨¦g¨¦ examination."

    "But I pass it within a minute and emerge unscathed." Yuan Jiughed aloud.

    Ling Feiyang was startled as she gasped with shock, "You''ve beaten your master up?"

    Yuan Ji took an amused look at her, "Rather than say I''ve beaten up my master, I will rather say that I had surrendered to my master. Haha."

    Ling Feiyang: ???

    "I told my master that I had finally figured out his impossible to pass test. Therefore if he is willing to let me pass, I will surrender all my sect''s contribution points and everything to him in the future. He will be my Great Dao and I will devote my life to be his core prot¨¦g¨¦. That''s how I had be my master''s personal prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Ling Feiyang was startled, "You¡­you bribe your master?"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before he answered her, "Rather than saying that I had bribed my master, I will say that my master wanted me to bribe him."

    Then heughed, "I had actually regretted being his personal prot¨¦g¨¦ for uncountable number of times. If I know that being his core prot¨¦g¨¦ will be such a nightmare thing, I would rather not offer myself in the first ce. But in the end, I never regret it because to me, he is the best master ever."

    Ling Feiyang returned a light nod, "A strict master will always bring the best of his personal prot¨¦g¨¦s. Without him, there won''t be the present you now."

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyang was staring at him as she asked, "Have you heard of the name of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Why is she asking me about myself?"

    He retained hisposure and answered her, "I have heard of him before. Why did you mention him for?"

    Ling Feiyang said slowly, "He is one of the greatest swordsmen in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. You can say that he is even in the top twenty ranking."

    Yuan Ji coughed weakly, "But he isn''t in the top five. Haha."

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "You never know. His sword art may be ordinary but somehow he can be a Sword Saint. You must know that there are only around twenty Sword Saints in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity and each one of them is extraordinary in their own ways."

    Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin as he pondered, "Is she hinting me that she knows something? It is impossible that she can recognize my swordy as from the Orthodox Sword Sect and moreover I have been using my left hand as my sword arm."

    "I''ve a copy of the sword manual of the Orthodox Sword Sect. The swordy inside is indeed extremely ordinary but yet the Orthodox Sword Sect is able to produce three generations of sword saints in a row. Sword Saint Ji Yuan and Sword Saintess Ye Chengxi are the two more recent Sword Saints. Don''t you feel that this is indeed very strange for such a little known sword sect? You must know that even in the top seven major orthodox ns, it is extremely difficult to produce two generations of Sword Saints."

    "What is so surprising about that? As far as I know, more than half of the Sword Saints aren''t from the seven major orthodox ns, five major unorthodox ns and the three heretic pces." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    When he had said that, he was also secretly cursing. "It seems that I have a traitor in the ranks of the Orthodox Sword Sect. Luckily, there nothing extraordinary about the sword manual of the Orthodox Sword Sect but why did she have to use the word ''extremely ordinary''. She can simply say the sword manual of the Orthodox Sword Sect is ordinary. And why did she study my sect''s sword art for? Is she too free?"

    Ling Feiyang continued, "Not everyone that is good with their sword art can be a Sword Saint. In order to be a Sword Saint, they have to be acknowledged by the sword altar in the Swords Valley of the Souls. I am definitely not qualified to do so."

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "You can definitely be one if you try a little harder."

    Ling Feiyang smiled, "Do you know that the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is renowned for killing his opponents even when the odds are stacked against him? Even if he has only 1% chance, there is still a chance for his opponent to get killed by him."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he tried to recall silently, "Is she sure about that? I usually don''t try to fight when the odds are less than 30%."

    Heughed, "I had heard after he had gained the title of Sword Saint, he was defeated ten times in a row. He must surely be the most disgraceful Sword Saint ever."

    Ling Feiyang chuckled softly, "I beg to disagree with you. But after losing ten times in a row, he was nearly undefeatable for a long time. I suspected that he had lost on purpose to distract his challengers to the ten earlier challengers."

    Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin. This part was indeed true. He had purposely lost his duels because he was troubled by the daily challenges and he could not cultivate in peace. Was it so obvious?

    "Have you heard of the ck Hand Guild? It is the number one assassin guild in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. At that time the guild leader of the ck Hand Guild was assassinated by Ji Yuan. The odds of that happening were only 1%. At that time, Ji Yuan had only just reached the initial sixth realm level while his opponent was an initial seventh realm expert that was surrounded by many high level cultivators. Yet Ji Yuan could assassinate the top assassin in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly. That happened like two to three hundred years ago and he had almost forgotten about it.

    "Not only did he assassinate the top assassin in the ck Hand Guild, he had even made a secret covenant with the ck Hand Guild to forget about the matter. This is originally a secret that no one is willing to talk about and therefore in the fraternity, there are very few people that knows about it." Ling Feiyang said coolly.

    This time Yuan Ji was looking at her coldly before he said, "Then why are you telling me? Do you want the whole ck Hand Guild toe after me? And how do you know about this matter?"

    This was an originally a secret that no one had known about it. The reason why he was able to make a covenant with the ck Hand Guild was because he had threatened to tell the entire fraternity that their leader was in fact assassinated by him. If this matter was to leak out then the ck Hand Guild would lose its reputation and there would be many cultivators that would be looking to seek vendetta with them.

    Moreover at that time he had killed most of the top experts in the ck Hand Guild.

    At that time he was the target of an assassination by the ck Hand Guild. Therefore out of desperation, he had taken the fight all the way to the secret stronghold of the ck Hand Guild.

    "How do I know about this matter? You are asking?" Ling Feiyang was now smiling.

    Yuan Ji returned a light nod.

    "What if I tell you that I''m now the new master of the ck Hand Guild, will you believe me?" Ling Feiyang smiled.

    Yuan Ji slowly nodded his head before he said, "Should I call you Ling Feiyue instead? Since you have already known that I am Ji Yuan, we can all stop our pretenses. So, you are nning to kill me now?"

    It had suddenly dawned upon him why he was being aimed by Ling Feiyue in the past. It was because she had a connection with the ck Hand Guild?

    "Indeed we should drop all our pretenses." Ling Feiyue was smiling delightfully now. "So you are finally admitting that you are indeed Ji Yuan. Do you know that I''ve been looking for you all this while?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly as he flipped his sword in front of him, "I''ve heard of your 10,000 high grade spirit stones bounty for me so how should I not know?"

 Chapter 51 Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (3)

    Ling Feiyue had averted her eyes from him, "You¡­who says anything about killing you?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I don''t believe it. I have secretly watched your secret duel and I¡­" He could not continue. How could he say that he had identally outrage her modesty?

    So he said, "Your bounty is the best proof of your intention."

    Ling Feiyue was flushing lightly as she smiled gently, "It is a find dead and alive bounty and not a kill bounty. Did you get it wrong somewhere?"

    Yuan Ji was frowning lightly, "Is there a difference?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "Of course there is a difference. I know that you won''t die so easily. So I''m betting for you to look for me to remove the bounty."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was really looking for her to find out more about Xia Jiajia and not to remove the bounty. But of course he could not rule out a fight with her.

    "I may even die in your hands in a simr way that you had done to the assassin leader of the ck Thief Guild." Ling Feiyue smiled before averting her eyes.

    Yuan Ji quietly asked, "If you have done speaking, why don''t you raise your sword now?"

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Ji Yuan, do we have to fight with each other? Because that is not my intention. I¡­just want to befriend you."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Befriend me? Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue who is now a Great Saintess. You really knows how to joke with me. Have you forgotten how you have toyed with me a hundred years ago?"

    Ling Feiyue quietly said as she looked at him woefully, "Because I am an unorthodox cultivator and that is why we can''t be friends? Or is it because of some other reasons?"

    Yuan Ji kept quiet. He was waiting for her to draw her sword and he would not be fooled into lowering his guard.

    It was amon ruse for the unorthodox cultivators to trick their opponents intocency and he had seen it too many times.

    Ling Feiyue looked up to him and said gently, "Do you want to know about Xia Jiajia and what happened a hundred years ago?"

    Yuan Ji had a light tremble and he replied without any hesitation, "I do."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "But I can only share with you if you are willing to befriend me."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He rubbed his chin before he returned a light nod.

    But he could not resist asking, "I am just a nobody and I do not deserved to be a friend of the renowned Goddess Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­"

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue had loosened the braid on the top of her head and had loosened her hair. In a split second, she had turned around swiftly and had changed to a maiden robe.

    She was giggling softly and was absolutely stunning.

    If Yuan Ji was unmoved by her beautiful presence then he must be lying to his heart. In fact, his heart was pacing rapidly and he was muttering silently. "This is too sinful." It was as though her smiles had the power to bewitch and to steal away one''s soul.

    Ling Feiyueughed jovially as she winked at him, "How do I look?"

    Yuan Ji pretended to throw her an uninterested look, "Not bad. So you can tell me now?"

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue had shed in front of him, startling him as she looked up to him. "Which part do you want me to start with?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly before he said. "Up to you."

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly grabbed his hand and said gently, "Why don''t we make a move first as we chat? This ce isn''t exactly safe for us to be stationary."

    Yuan Ji was a little flustered when he felt the electric pulse of her tender hand while Ling Feiyue was also flustered when she felt theforting warmth of his hand.

    Yuan Ji was a little startled that his psychology defenses had broken down so rapidly in front of her and he had even allowed her to grab his hand. It was because there was no killing intent that hade from her and it also happened too fast.

    With a soft sigh, he began to follow her pace.

    "I have actually admired you for a long time and I have always wanted to see what you are like." Ling Feiyue said gently.

    Yuan Ji was startled as he looked curiously at her, "You admire me? For what?"

    Ling Feiyue refused to answer him and instead she continued, "One day, while I was preparing for my personal duel with Xue Qianxue, the maiden that you had known as Xia Jiajia had paid me a visit and told me that she had a ruse to enable me to defeat Xue Qianxue and also to lure you to me so that I could have a look at you."

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly, "This is exactly what Xue Qianxue had told me as well. What I don''t understand is, your personal duel had nothing to do with me right? Why drag me into it?"

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes shyly, "Because you had once created a poem¡­"

    "Alright, I know that part. Please ept my sincere apologies for that." Yuan Ji said bitterly while cursing Guo Tianming silently.

    "I only know her as Xia Jiajia but for her real background, I really do not know." Ling Feiyue said quietly. "Ever since that day, I have never seen her again."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "You don''t know her?!"

    Ling Feiyue shook her head, "I am telling the whole truth. Whether you believe it or not, it is up to you. I only know that she is also a seventh realm expert and she can evene and go freely in the forbidden ground of my sect."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly. This also matched the ount that was with Xue Qianxue. Xia Jiajia seemed to be a super exponent and maybe even more so than Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    "Why should she help you to win the duel?" Yuan Ji asked her. "There must be a purpose. I don''t believe that she is so free."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Although I don''t know why she is helping me and who she is but I can roughly guess where she is from."

    "You do?!" Yuan Ji looked at her with an excited look.<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly. "The second half of the Two Goddesses and My Beautiful Beard actually offers a clue. I''ve been trying to figure her out for a while now."

    She began to recite, "The lovelyughter of the two Goddess Maidens transcends the seven lofty peaks of the realm and the hundred flowers. Their beautiful songs stir my passions to no ends."

    "The seven lofty peaks refer to the seven major orthodox ns. Your poem may have offended one of the seven major powers of the orthodox ns. You must know that there are many hidden experts within the seven major orthodox ns and Xia Jiajia is one of them." Ling Feiyue pointed out.

    Yuan Ji gasped softly, "You are right. Why didn''t I think of that? I am the one that had created the poem. The seven lofty peaks did refer to the seven major orthodox ns."

    "When you extolled the beauty of Xue Qianxue and I, you have unwittingly offended a great beauty from one of the seven major orthodox ns. Therefore she may be trying to set you up at the same time to avenge her honor." Ling Feiyue said quietly before adding. "You must admit that Xia Jiajia is indeed very beautiful."

    Yuan Ji was forced to nod; it was because he had been smitten by her when they had met for the first time.

    "Very beautiful." He added after a while and he was grinning bashfully.

    Finally he heaved a soft sigh, "Thank you for sharing with me this much. Actually I have something to share with you as well."

    "Yes?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    "Xia Jiaqing is Xia Jiajia. I''ve been looking for her for some time but I don''t know where she is."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Xia Jiaqing is actually Xia Jiajia?! What is she doing in the Emperor Hall Sect for?"

    Then she began to frown unhappily, "The Emperor Hall Sect is at the Five Heavens Peaks and so is the Orthodox Sword Sect. Is she waiting for you?"

    Yuan Ji immediately stammered, "Of course not!"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly let loose of his hand and said coldly, "You''re lying. Before we parted, Xia Jiajia had told me that you had given her a pledge to wait you for a hundred years."

    "Wait, I can exin¡­" Yuan Ji panicky said but he could not think of a reason to exin it.

    Ling Feiyue had now turned away in the other direction now.

    All of sudden Yuan Ji had caught hold of her wrist and said, "I really like Jiajia and I''m looking for her but I have no idea where she is or who she is."

    Ling Feiyue knocked his hand off her and said coldly, "You can tell it to Xia Jiajia. I am not her. Why are you telling me all these for?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Because you are jealous?"

    Ling Feiyue immediately turned around and folded her arms before saying coldly to him, "I will be jealous?"

    Yuan Ji probed her, "If you are not jealous then where are you going?"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "This great saintess here feels like soloing the trial on my own. This is none of your business to stop me."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "But the iron pagoda is over there. You are going in the wrong direction."

    "That is still my business, am I right?"

    "Erm¡­" Yuan Ji said weakly, "But we are friends, am I right?"

    "Who are friends with you? I am from an unorthodox n. I dare not make friend with a Sword Saint of the orthodox side or I may lose my life without knowing why." Ling Feiyue continued to say coldly.

    "Alright then. Good bye." Yuan Ji had turned around to walk off.

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Why don''t you try harder to persuade me to go with you?"

    Yuan Ji said without turning back, "Hmm, someone just says we are from the opposite sides. Although I want to befriend her but she is too high and aloof. Therefore why am I seeking my own trouble?"

    Ling Feiyue had shed next to him, "Hmph! I know that you can''t wait to get rid of me so I have decided to follow you to give you some troubles."

    Yuan Ji paused in his tracks to look at her intently before saying quietly, "You''re really beautiful especially when you are smiling. You shouldn''t be cross dressing all the time. You should let your enchanting beauty be known."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Why don''t you create a poem just for me?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he recalled her mesmerizing smiles before saying, "The heavenly smiles of the Goddess Maiden Feiyue is unparalleled, her mesmerizingughter danced with the gentle winds, fills my heart with her endless delight."

    "Thank you." Ling Feiyue gasped softly as she returned a shy look at him. "It is a beautiful poem. I like it."

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "d you like it."

    "So, did you create one for Xue Qianxue as well when you saw her?" Ling Feiyue asked quietly.

    Yuan Ji began to smile bitterly, "No."

    Ling Feiyue looked intently at him before she inhaled softly, "Is that so. So how is your meet with her?"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly. Somehow he knew that she would ask him about Xue Qianxue.

    He merely replied, "It is aplete disaster. I tell you when I have the time."

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she asked curiously, "What happens?"

    But Yuan Ji had run ahead toward the iron pagoda in a hurry and did not seem to hear her.

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "Why don''t he tells me now? I have the time now¡­and why is he in such a hurry?"

 Chapter 52 Lotus Sword Mansion Trial (4)

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had now reached the iron pagoda. From afar, it looked like a small tower but now they were now looking at a massive tall iron tower that were five times as tall as any pagoda that they had ever seen.

    Moreover there was only a massive iron gate that was in front of them and it was shut tight.

    In front of the iron gate was a ck stele that had runic characters crafted into it.

    Without prompting, Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue quicklyy their hands on the ck stele and they realized that this iron gate could only open if the rest of the cultivators had arrived.

    This was actually the real second trial.

    Yuan Ji took a quiet look at Ling Feiyue before saying, "I guess that we need to wait for a little while."

    The ck stele had indicated that the gate of the iron pagoda would only opened once 50% of the cultivators that had entered the Lotus Sword Mansion had made it through the second trial portal.

    This 50% need not have toe from the original path that they had taken. Whenever a new trial level was entered, several paths from the lower level would converge. As long as the 50% criteria of any of the paths could be met, the gate of this iron pagoda would swing open.

    Yuan Ji said to Ling Feiyue as he sat down in a meditating pose, "Since we have the time now, we ought to cultivate to replenish our lost profound strength. Although the spiritual force here is fairly weak, we will still be able to recover faster than most of ourpetitors here."

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Ling Feiyue was looking intently at him, "Is there something on my face?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she shook her head lightly, "No. I''m just thinking that you look much better without that ugly beard of yours."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was clearly offended and he was frowning, "I am the head of the four beautiful bearded cultivators, so how can I be without my beard¡­"

    "Do you know that we have conspired with the Manor Lord Li Yi of the Fluttering Winds Manor to set you up?" She interrupted quietly.

    Yuan Ji inhaled slowly before he heaved a soft sigh, "I know. I had only recently known about it. His beard is a fake. Even Xue Qianxue''s secret recipe of growing a beard is a story that is made up by all of you."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled jovially, "You have even found out that the recipe is a fake? Let me guess. Did you ask Xue Qianxue for that recipe when you have met her recently?"

    Yuan Ji refused to answer her and instead he frowned, "Who bright idea is this?"

    "Xia Jiajia. She conspired with Xue Qianxue and I. Even that silly Li Yi has thought that the recipe is real and that was why he had agreed to conspire with us to trick you."

    "Jiajia''s idea?" Yuan Ji frowned even more and he was rubbing his chin, "Isn''t she a bimbo?"

    In his heart she was still a bimbo and when he had thought of that, he was secretly smiling.

    It was because he had remembered that Xia Jiajia had given him a divine sword for his precious sword and she could be ttered by him so easily that she had even given him the position of elder. She had to be a bimbo for doing such things¡­

    Ling Feiyue was nowughing to and fro and her jovialughter was like music, "You actually call her a bimbo? She is actually smarter than any one of us. We have all been yed by her."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "What is her purpose for doing so?" Yuan Ji sighed softly. He really could not figure out.

    Yuan Ji had suddenly noticed that Ling Feiyue was staring intently at him again and he had soon staring at her beautiful alluring eyes too.

    For quite some time, they were staring at each other and were not speaking.

    Yuan Ji''s heart was pacing fast as he thought, "She is too sinful to look at. I can''t believe that I will be staring at the Goddess Ling Feiyue and I didn''t get ughter by her."

    He was gulping his saliva and her allure was too irresistible.

    Finally he focused all his willpower to say quietly, "I have another alias now. I''m now Yuan Ji the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    All of sudden Ling Feiyue gasped as she took a step back, "You''re that idiot that stole from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and even got a personal challenge from the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Divine Pce?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "So that''s what everyone is saying behind my back now. The Mystic Eye Sect sure can spread the news in such a rapid time."

    Ling Feiyue continued to gasp as she shook her head, "Ji Yuan, don''t go. You can never be able to defeat the Divine Pce Master. The cultivation practice of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is superior to anything in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and there are at least three divine skills that are unique to the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Even the Evil Cultivation Pce steers clear of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. This is one celestial sect that you cannot afford to mess up with."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "I have to go. Because if I don''t, everyone in the Five Heavens Peaks will be ughtered by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    He muttered silently, "Yan''Er and Chengxi won''t be able to escape too."

    It was because Hua Wuwu had ced her profound signatures on the three of them.

    Although Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue looked like innocent lovely dolls but he knew that they were only acting most of the time. They had even dared to confront all the saintesses of the Celestial Orthodox Sect without any fear.

    He was very sure that they had some trump cards to make their escape or else they would not dare to be so bold. Or they were actually concealing their most powerful martial profound arts.

    Ling Feiyue turned around and she was trembling lightly, "Come to my Spirit Blue Moon Sect. I''ll give you a safe haven."

    Yuan Ji was startled and was secretly touched. But he knew that he had to decline her offer. It was because he knew that he would only bring destruction upon her Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Moreover as far as he knows, there was only one great saint level in the entire Spirit Blue Moon Sect and that was Ling Feiyue herself.

    Because of him, she was willing to risk her cultivation and her entire celestial sect?

    So he merely said, "I may not lose. I still have four months to improve myself."

    Ling Feiyue said woefully without turning back, "Without divine profound arts and cultivation cheats against a powerful celestial sect that have plenty of divine profound arts and cultivation cheats, you''re courting your own death. I''ve even heard that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce has a celestial grade divine sword, the Hundred Flower Divine Sword. That divine sword alone can suppress any seventh realm saints with great impunitive."

    Yuan Ji had turned ashen immediately and he was muttering, "A celestial grade divine sword. That is as good as calling it an immortal weapon already¡­"

    "Look who we have here?" Someone shouted out loud, interrupting Yuan Ji''s thoughts.

    A group of twenty odds cultivators were seen approaching the iron pagoda.

    Yuan Ji turned to look at the neers before he smiled weakly, "So it is Third Young Master Jian Menghao."

    Indeed it was Third Young Master Jian Menghao and his fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    Jian Menghao turned to his group tough, "Look at me. I don''t even know the name of this little fish that is talking to me now."

    Third Young Master Jian Menghao and many of his fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s in his group were all suddenly inhaling heavily. It was because they had suddenly noticed a most astonishing maiden was standing behind Yuan Ji.

    Ling Feiyue had turned around when she had heard the approach of the neers.

    This caused Jian Menghao tough a little less crude as he turned to say politely, "Maiden may I know your name? I''m the Third Young Master Jian Menghao from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor."

    Ling Feiyue disyed a soft chuckle and her beautiful smile was soul catching to all the onlookers who could only watch her in awe and that included Yuan Ji.

    "So it is the third young master of one of the twelve great sects and one of the seven major orthodox ns. This maiden here is humbled. Unfortunately, it is inconvenient for me to tell you my name in the presence of my lord here. He won''t be happy."

    Yuan Ji was startled. My lord in the Deste Celestial Fraternity would mean she was telling them that he was her husband.

    Jian Menghao was perplexed. It was because he had been monitoring Yuan Ji before he had entered the trial and this peerless goddess was nowhere to be seen. Therefore she must have met him during the trial.

    He had to admit secretly that this hateful fellow was actually quite good looking but of course he was nothingpared to his own looks of course.

    "Did he hook this peerless goddess up while they are in the trial together? He must have bedded her already in order for her to call him out so intimately."

    When he had thought that this hateful fellow was also the one that Xue Qianxue was willing to see, he grew even angrier.

    Therefore he had turned to stare coldly at Yuan Ji, "Do you know that you are such a hateful fellow?"<sub> </sub>

    Then he turned to say to the peerless goddess, "Maiden, stay out of this. This vile viin hasmitted endless evils and many a fair maidens had fallen into his hands. Today, I shall deliver you from his despicable hands."

    "Everyone, kill him!" He ordered his group.

    Yuan Ji was startled that this Third Young Master Jian Menghao was actually such a ruthless fellow to trump up false charges against him and that he had even ordered his men to attack him without any provocations.

    Immediately Yuan Ji was surrounded by five golden celestials and twenty cultivators.

    He took a quick look at Ling Feiyue who was smiling enticing at him. She was all smiles and gave no indication that she would be lifting her hands to help him. As a matter of fact, she had walked further away from him.

    He thought, "This new ''consort'' is so unreliable to her ''lord''. For a moment, I was actually so touched by her earlier gesture."

    With a soft sigh, he had unsheathed an ordinary sword with his left hand.

    From the profound auras that were disyed by his opponents, he had quickly gauged that two were of the sixth realm golden supremacy level, three were of the fifth realm golden celestial level and the rest were fourth realm cultivators.

    One of the golden supremacies sneered at him, "Don''t me us. We have our orders. We will make sure that you are punished justly for offending our Third Young Master Jian. You are not disying your profound aura?"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Do you really think that I''m afraid that I will be scared of you?"

    "What a joke¡­"

    "He is already on his way to meet his maker and he can still joke with us¡­"

    One golden celestial said warily, "Be careful everyone. The fact that he is here earlier than us mean that he is not weak¡­"

    Jian Menghao interrupted them as he shouted with great contempt for Yuan Ji, "Aim for his heart and don''t let him live!"

    Yuan Ji was frowning now. Actually if a cultivator had lost their consciousness during the trial, they would be sent out of the trial and may not die. But if their hearts were pierced or if the cultivators got swallowed whole by a deste beast then they may die.

    Right now, it was not a simple matter of just ending his trial opportunity but also his life.

    "What are you all waiting for? Get him!" Third Young Master Jian Menghao shouted.

    All of a sudden all the cultivators were attacking Yuan Ji at the same time!

    Swoosh!

    There was a sh of light from Yuan Ji''s sword and the sixth realm golden supremacy who was talking earlier was killed instantly.

    Everyone was startled.

    But before they could react, Yuan Ji had taken the life of yet another sixth realm golden supremacy with another blinding sh of his sword.

    All of a sudden Third Young Master Jian Menghao had noticed that the profound animus that was being mustered by the profound strength of this hateful fellow was at the seventh realm level.

    This was not lost on the rest as well but at the same time they had all a bewildered look. It was because even if it was a saint level cultivator, it was not possible to kill a sixth realm golden supremacy with a single strike.

    "Saint!"

    "He is a saint¡­"

    "Be careful everyone!"

    The rest of the cultivators were panicky now and they were all attacking Yuan Ji with everything that they had got. It was because they did not want to lose their lives.

    "Profound Heaven Sword 5th Rank!" A golden celestial shouted as a wave of charged profound power shed toward Yuan Ji but no sooner had he released it, it was deflected casually by Yuan Ji and a nearby cultivator was killed.

    Dozens of swords were shing in a tightly sword array against Yuan Ji but Yuan Ji was still able to deflect their attacks.

    "Profound Heaven Sword 6th Rank¡­" Another golden celestial had just shouted and had disyed the powerful sword stance of the 6th Rank of the Profound Heaven Sword but before he could aim at his target, Yuan Ji had swung his sword arm and had cut off his head with a sh.

    Ling Feiyue was watching the swordfights with keen interest; she knew that Ji Yuan was good but she had never seen him at his best. This fight allowed her to observe him because there were more than twenty lethal swords that were aiming at him at the same time.

    It seemed to her that Ji Yuan had a weak profound aura and had a poor defense. Or to put it this way, he was actually allocating most of his profound strength to his sword as profound power to have the maximum impact. Therefore his sword strikes were at least 30% stronger than his same level opponents.

    At the same time Yuan Ji had purposely attacked the two sixth realm golden supremacies first before they had realized that he was a real threat. Now that he was facing only three fifth realm golden celestials and twenty fourth realm cultivators, he would have an easier time.

    Although it appeared that Ji Yuan still had a disadvantage because he did not have an inexhaustible profound strength but this group of attackers was fighting against a saint level cultivator with insane recovery rate.

    Therefore without any high level cultivators to support them in their wolf-pack tactics, they were doomed from the very start. Moreover they were unwittingly fighting against a Sword Saint.

    With every blink of an eye, one cultivator after another began to fall to the ground and vanished into the thin air as they were being sent out of the trial.

    Finally thest of the fifth rank golden celestial had also fallen and the remaining cultivators were quickly cut down by Yuan Ji.

    Now it was only Yuan Ji as he grinned at Third Young Master Jian Menghao, "It is only you now."

    Jian Menghao was stammering panicky, "Hero¡­I mean Saint¡­can we talk it over?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Sure we can. If you can humbly beg me by addressing my name nicely, I will spare you."

    Jian Menghao was stunned. It was because he had disdained this hateful fellow and did not even know his name at all.

    "I guess you don''t even know my name so here you go¡­" Yuan Ji said as he swung his sword.

    All of a sudden Jian Menghao had evaded his strike by jumping backward hastily.

    Before Yuan Ji could make another strike against him, Jian Menghao hadmitted suicide by shing himself on his throat and followed up by jumping off the cliff.

    Ling Feiyue was giggling, "You are such a badass. You have forced him tomit suicide."

    Yuan Ji was frowning, "He thought that I may aim for his heart and therefore he will rathermit suicide to exit the trial than having to face the possibility of getting killed. He is quite smart."

    "Although he is smart but he haspletely disgraced the Profound Heaven Sword Manor!" Ling Feiyue chuckled.

    Then she was gasping softly, "Although I am at the upper sacred saint level but I may not be able to kill these two sixth realm golden supremacies outright even with a divine sword in my hand. Yet you have used an ordinary sword and you can aplish it in such a clean manner."

    Yuan Ji answered with a weak smile, "I was just lucky that they were not expecting me to attack them and moreover they were not exactly strong fighters."

    "Lucky? I don''t think so. Do you know that the Profound Heaven Sword art is ranked third in the Sword Art Ranking and the first supremacy that you had killed was actually Gongsun Zan. He is actually one of the top thirty swordsmen in the entire fraternity. He won''t be so foolish to let you make a sneak attack at him."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly before she continued, "You seem to have recognized him too. This, I am very sure. Because I notice that your eyes have been following him right from the very start."

    She turned to look at him with an endeavoring look, "Your sword broke through his profound defenses. I saw his sword shifted suddenly by half an inch by a mysterious force just before you kill him."

    Then she lowered her voice as she chuckled, "Although it appears that you had imbued your sword with profound power but what really kills him was your sword energies attack. You are able to use profound power and sword energies simultaneously? Is this your real trump card?"

    Yuan Ji was now frowning. It was a bad mistake to have her around to observe his duel and her eyes were really too sharp.

    "Also, you are only using your left hand. The Sword Saint Ji Yuan that I know is a right hander. I must be really wary of you when I am fighting you again." Ling Feiyue chuckled beautifully as she winked at him.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

 Chapter 53 The Iron Pagoda Trial (1)

    Yuan Ji found himself staring at Ling Feiyue again.

    And the two of them were once again staring at each other quietly again.

    This went on for some time.

    Finally Yuan Ji sighed softly, "I am a dying man soon. You should not put me into your heart. You will surely regret it."

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes quietly as she said quietly, "This is my business and none of your business."

    Yuan Ji saw the sentimental looks that were in her eyes and he knew that their delicate rtionship had now changed.

    He was no longer fearful of her and had even dropped his guard in front of her.

    Originally he had thought of her as his enemy and he was seeking her out to enquiry news about Xia Jiajia. But it seemed that she had no idea where Xia Jiajia was either. The only clue that he had was that Xia Jiajia may be an elusive expert from among the seven major orthodox ns.

    Well, six to be exact. It was because he could rule out the Celestial Orthodox Sect in which Xue Qianxue had belonged since she could not recognize who Xia Jiajia was and there was no possibility that Xia Jiajia could belong to the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    "At least I know that Xia Jiajia is fine. I''m content now. There is no need to look for her anymore..."

    With a soft sigh, he said quietly. "If I am alive after four months, I will surely look for you. I hope you don''t shove your door shut on me."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly as she disyed a stunned look at him, "Do you mean it?"

    Yuan Ji nodded. "I mean it."

    "But we''re from two different fraternities¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her gently, "Is not a problem for me."

    Ling Feiyue inhaled softly but she was soon smiling enthralling.

    She quickly averted her eyes shyly before saying solemnly, "There are two saintesses that I think may be Xia Jiajia. If you want to seek her out, you may check them out. They are Saintess Jian Yuluo from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and Saintess Fang Zhenfei from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was muttering, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect?" It was because he had suddenly recalled that the veil maiden that he had seen in the vicinity of the Thousand Cloud Peaks seemed to have like blue a lot, so much that even her hairpin, belts, glove, earrings, eyelids, fingernails etc. all had a peacock blue.

    It was not a peacock blue but the color of a blue phoenix!

    Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect?!

    The Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect was the smallest power among the seven major orthodox ns and rarely intervened in the affairs of the fraternity.

    Because it was so elusive, there were many celestial powers that sought to rece its position among the seven major orthodox ns but unfortunately they were always unsessful in their attempts.

    He sighed softly before saying to Ling Feiyue, "Thank you for the information."

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly frowning and there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes, "So who are the two beautiful maidens that are with you?"

    Yuan Ji was caught unwary by her question. He had thought that she would ask him about Xue Qianxue instead.

    "Should I tell her that Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue are from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce? Better not. I should not involve her in my own affairs. Moreover these two saintesses from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce are more dangerous than they look."

    After he had decided what was in his mind, he replied coolly. "They are my women. I needpanionship along the way."

    Ling Feiyue wasughing all of a sudden, "You are lying. They can''t even be bothered to look at you with their eyes."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly flipped her cloak and within a few blinks of an eye, she had expertly changed her clothing and had bundled her head up like a man.

    She exined, "I''ve better cross dress myself for the time being. Surely you don''t want all the attention to be on me?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I don''t mind."

    All of a sudden there were three groups of cultivators that hade in three different directions. These three groups consisted of many golden celestials and they were the cream of the crop from the different starting points of the first trial.

    Ling Feiyue averted her nces shyly from Yuan Ji, "Guess that we have morepany now."

    Yuan Ji was actually quite pleased to see the newly arrivals. It was because he was really afraid that Ling Feiyue may ask him about Xue Qianxue and he was really afraid to answer her truthfully; he had suddenly realized that she had a ce in his heart now.

    These three groups were all big groups but they were friendlier than Jian Menghao''s group. They were all quite polite and had greeted Yuan Ji politely.

    "May we have the names of these two heroes that are ahead of us?"

    "Li Yuan."

    "Ling Feiyang."

    "Oh, it is Young Master Ling Feiyang. I have heard of you¡­"

    Everyone was soon exchanging pleasantries and to get to know one another.

    There were many other golden celestials among the third different groups. Yuan Ji had realized that they were not from the same celestial ns and had chosen to group together to fight the high level deste beasts.

    As time flew by, more and more cultivators had arrived at the iron pagoda.<sub> </sub>

    Some were not as friendly as the others but they had mostly stayed steer of the earlier groups. It was because it wasmon sense that the first wave of cultivators to arrive at the iron pagoda was the stronger cultivators and it was unwise to provoke them without first knowing their cultivation realms.

    Except for Jian Menghao''s group, most of the first wave groups were more polite to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang as they recognized them as the superior cultivators foring first.

    However Yuan Ji knew that they were all keeping their trump cards as eventually everyone was also everyone''s rival in the trials. Very few actually reported their cultivation realm or celestial ns of origin. It was amon practice not to reveal these information during a trial and not because they were being impolite.

    Therefore even Yuan Ji did not know which of the golden celestials were actually fifth realm, sixth realm and seventh realm in the group until they had chosen to disy their profound animus either through their profound powers or auras.

    But of course, Yuan Ji could still guess with a high degree of uracy if he wanted to. It was because sixth realm golden supremacies were usually the most vocal and arrogant golden celestials. It was really not hard for him or anyone to really guess it.

    The main reasons were that sixth realm supremacies regarded themselves as the stronger golden celestials and were not averted to showing off to the others. After all, they had suffered for a long time the humiliation of being fifth realm golden celestials by the other sixth realm supremacies so when they had be sixth realm supremacies themselves, they also tended to disy an overbearing attitude toward the others.

    Seventh realm saint cultivators were rarely encountered. Even if they had identally insulted a seventh realm saint, they were quick to apologize. Most of the time the saint cultivators would often ignore the slight since they tended not to be offended by these petty things.

    But of course, this was the more of the norm of the orthodox fraternity rather than the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. The unorthodox saints were naturally less forgiving.

    Soon more than three hundred cultivators had gathered at the iron pagoda before the iron gate started to creak as it opened slowly.

    Yuan Ji was looking excitingly at the iron gate now. The reason why the iron gate was opening now was because there was a 50% pass rate now for one of the trials that led to this level. All in all, the number of cultivators for the second trial would be in excess of over a thousand cultivators.

    The real second trial would be starting soon. He began to wonder what was inside.

    Most of the remaining cultivators were still in the first trial or on their way to the iron pagoda. But unlike the first arrivals, they would not need to wait and could enter into the iron pagoda immediately.

    Some of the cultivators were actually disappointed that the iron gate of the iron pagoda was opening so soon. It was because they were still trying to cultivate back as much of their profound strength as possible.

    More than half of the cultivators were not entirely in their best forms. Many of them had injuries and some were even seriously wounded.

    The way here was popted with fifth and sixth realm deste beasts. To get to the iron pagoda here was not easy at all.

    Yuan Ji had an amused look when he saw that Ling Feiyue was still surrounded by the many female cultivators that were around.

    Ling Feiyue was like a ma that attracted the curious maidens. She was simply too dashing.

    Yuan Ji shook his head and thought, "These maidens will all soon have their tender hearts broken by Ling Feiyue¡­"

    His thoughts were interrupted by Ling Feiyue who had managed to shake off the female cultivators, "We can finally enter the iron pagoda now."

    She was only too relieved that the trials would be starting soon.

    "Why did you go?" She gave Yuan Ji an annoyed look.

    "I was just round the corner. I didn''t want to disturb you with the other maidens." Yuan Ji chuckled. "If I am around, some of the quieter maidens may not have the courage to approach you."

    Ling Feiyue returned a gentleugh, "I hope that you''re not skulking with envy in the corner all this while."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Who will be envious of you?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly before she whispered shyly, "The first time that we have met, you are so envious of me that you are even threatening me and even offer to be my big brother to teach me a trick or two about cultivation methods so long as I don''t touch your Xia Jiajia."

    Yuan Ji immediately kept quiet and he pretended to look the other way.

    Luckily for him, he did not need to pretend to look the other way for too long because the iron gate of the iron pagoda was now fully swung opened.

    Hundreds of cultivators were now rushing inside the iron gate with great anticipation.

    Each time a cultivator had passed through the iron gate, there was a shimmering outline. This was an indication that the physical iron pagoda was actually an illusion and the real trial was actually within the space inside.

    Soon Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had both walked inside as well. As they walked inside, they were casting forlorn looks at each other.

    They soon found themselves in a grandeur dark hall and in front of them were a ck stele and three portals with the colors of blue, green and yellow.

    Everyone was soon touching the ck stele to receive the trial knowledge and to learn more about the three portals that were in front of them.

    The green portal was actually a returning portal to the valley outside the Lotus Sword Mansion.

    The blue portal was to enter the next level of the trial which was the third level of the third.

    The yellow portal was to take the iron pagoda trial.

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently as she suggested Yuan Ji a suggestion, "We ought to go to the third level of the trial as the rewards in the upper levels are generally better. In this way, we can conserve our profound strength while ensuring that we can go as further up the trial levels as possible. There is no point to waste our efforts on the low level rewards."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he nodded, "Indeed, this is a wise suggestion."

    The spiritual force here was really sparse and they could only recover one-tenth of their profound strength here through cultivatingpared to when they were at the outside.

    At first Yuan Ji had thought that he could cultivate back his profound strength while waiting for the gate of the iron pagoda to open. In the end, it was just a futile effort even with his saint rate of recovery.

    "So we are going to the blue portal, to the next trial level?" Ling Feiyue smiled with a hopeful look.

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly, "I''m going to take the yellow portal. What about you?"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

 Chapter 54 The Iron Pagoda Trial (2)

    "Don''t expect me to follow you. I''m here toplete the trials." Ling Feiyue coolly said to Yuan Ji. Although she sounded cool but she was upset with Yuan Ji for wasting his profound strength on the low level trials.

    Yuan Ji nodded and said nonchntly, "Alright then."

    After he had made his decision, he had walked toward the yellow portal.

    To his utter surprise, Ling Feiyue had followed him through the yellow portal.

    Yuan Ji gave her a perplexed look, "I''ve thought that you''re going to take the blue portal?"

    "Maybe you still got some more trump cards that I''m not aware of." She smiled gently before ignoring him to step into the yellow portal.

    Yuan Ji frowned silently, "That is why you can''t trust the words of women sometimes¡­they change their minds as fast as they change their clothing."

    He rubbed his chin before adding, "She can certainly change her clothing really fast too¡­"

    There were roughly 10% of the cultivators that had decided to take the green portal to turn back as they had either expended too much of their profound strength to continue or were too seriously injured.

    Another 20% of the cultivators had decided to explore the trials of the iron pagoda while 70% of the cultivators presented had decided to go directly to the third level of the trial.

    When some of the cultivators saw that Yuan Ji had moved toward the yellow portal, they were smiling secretly.

    "I thought that he is quite strong to arrive first at the iron pagoda. In the end, it seems that his strength is just so and so only."

    "He must be lucky to reach the iron pagoda without encountering any deste beasts. I''ve thought that he is an expert but actually he isn''t."

    "So he is just a low level golden celestial after all¡­"

    Very soon, Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and the roughly sixty other cultivators found themselves in a beautiful white hallway.

    "Where are we now?"

    "This is where we are supposed to take the trial of the iron pagoda?"

    "Guess we should walk down this hallway and check the other end first¡­"

    As everyone moved along the hallway, Ling Feiyue shot Yuan Ji an annoyed look. "Why did you choose the yellow portal first? It is a waste of time."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am just curious about the trial here, that''s all."

    "Hmph! Up to you." Ling Feiyue hummed coldly as she distanced herself from Yuan Ji.

    "Don''t be upset alright?" Yuan Ji said quietly. "Actually I have my reasons for doing so."

    "Which is?"

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Maybe you havee from an influential background and you don''t think that the low level profound treasures are rewarding to you. But for me, it is still worth chasing after. Moreover, I have never been to this ce before and I will like to explore the ce a little more thoroughly first."

    Ling Feiyue had a look of guilt in her eyes after she had heard his exnation. "Is that so? Sorry, I am riding on my high horse and fail to see things in your perspective."

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh, "I know that you are eager toplete the entire trial in the Lotus Sword Mansion and if possible, also get the best results. Therefore I do not me you at all. There is no need for you to apologize to me. Rather, I am happy that you are willing to join me here."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "I''m here to witness your regretful expressions for choosing toe here actually."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "Well, I hope that I won''t disappoint you."

    All the cultivators had walked for just a while before they could see flying des zapping all over the ce in the hallway ahead of them.

    Many of the cultivators were gulping when they saw the dozens of shing des that were shing out of the walls of the hallway before exploding with a huge impact into nothingness; these shing des were created by pure profound force and had extreme pration power.

    One of the cultivators said aloud to everyone, "Either we rely on our profound lightless art to dash across this corridor or we have to depend on the defenses of our profound auras."

    "Only a golden celestial may have strong enough profound defenses to tank these profound des. I can''t¡­" A cultivator who was only at fourth realm level shook his head with a sad resignation.

    All sixty cultivators were now looking around and saw that there were actually seven golden celestials in their midst. And of course two of them were Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    A golden celestial had proudly walked forward as he smirked with pride, "I am a sixth realm golden supremacy and I also happen to specialize in profound defenses."

    It was obvious that he was aiming to be the first person to ovee this trial.

    All of a sudden he gave a great shout as his profound aura burst forth in a startling golden light.

    He was not lying to everyone; his profound aura was indeed formidable.

    All of a sudden everyone could see that there was a totem image of a gigantic spirit entity in his profound aura.

    "He already has a spirit entity¡­" A cultivator gasped with shock.

    "After this spirit entity has appeared, his profound aura grows even stronger¡­"

    "This spirit entity is also renowned for its tough defenses!"

    "This is a perfect unison between cultivator and spirit entity..."

    "Impressive¡­"

    "Genius¡­"

    "Son of the Heavens..."

    The golden celestialughed, "I am not an unknown golden celestial. My name is Han Guanglie from the Guardians Citadel Sect. The whole lot of you should remember my name from today onward!"

    Yuan Ji frowned as he turned to Ling Feiyue, "He is quite impressive. Is he famous?"

    He had been away for so long and he was not surprised that there were now many such powerful celestials that he did not know. The heroes of tomorrow were always recing the heroes of old.

    Ling Feiyue replied gently, "No idea. Never heard of him before."

    "Well, after today, we will all know him." Yuan Ji smiled.

    Han Guanglie had quickly dashed into the dangerous hallway and soon the first profound de had struck him.

    Many of the lower level cultivators were gasping as the first profound de had struck Han Guanglie and they gasped again when the profound de was dissipated into nothingness by his powerful profound aura.

    Han Guanglie smiled triumphantly as he continued to walk ahead.

    From his brilliant look, he seemed to be telling everyone that he was so awesome.

    Soon, the second profound de, third profound de and eventually the tenth profound de had appeared from the walls and all the profound des were rendered into nothingness by his formidable defensive profound aura.

    Many of the cultivators had never seen anyone with such a formidable profound aura as this Han Guanglie before.

    Even Yuan Ji was pping silently, "His profound aura is really so impressive. I doubt that my full strength sword energies can even prate through his profound aura. Although he isn''t a saint level cultivator but his profound aura is better than most saints."

    Ling Feiyue said coolly, "Just so and so only."

    Yuan Ji took a curious look at her, "You mean your profound aura is stronger than him?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she winked at him, "That is for sure."

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly, "You really know how to boast."

    Ling Feiyue sneered softly at him, "Do not use your puny profound aura standard to measure against mine."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji ignored her and he continued to watch Han Guanglie.

    "This guy is really a tank!"

    "He is too formidable¡­"

    "I wish that I can have even one-tenth of the strength of his profound aura¡­"

    "This is the thirty profound des now?"

    p "Too power¡­"</anda>

    "He is too awesome¡­"

    As Han Guanglie continued his walk into the hallway, the pace of the profound des had also increased from one to two, from two to three and multiple profound des could be seen flying on him now.

    Han Guanglie was trembling lightly now and he had broken into cold sweat as the number of profound des were increasing as it struck him one after another. He had to maintain all his focus and profound strength in order to maintain his profound aura.

    Every hit by the profound de was a drain to his profound strength. Every two simultaneous hit was not a double drain but required three times more profound strength to maintain it as he had to quickly replenish the profound power of his profound aura.

    Every three simultaneous hit was a greater drain to his profound strength.<sub> </sub>

    And now the profound des were hitting him from all sides simultaneously.

    Han Guanglie knew that he had to endure just a little longer. The light at the end was actually very near and soon he would ovee this trial.

    But unfortunately his profound strength had to give up at this point when six profound des had decided to strike him at the same time and he was soon sliced to pieces by the profound des.

    When he got sliced to pieces, many of the cultivators were nkly blinking their eyes.

    "He didn''t make it?"

    "Obviously not¡­"

    "He is so close..."

    "I can''t believe it¡­"

    "I think he is really dead as well¡­"

    "Yes, I saw the profound de exploding his heart and slicing through it too¡­"

    "Such a renowned cultivator and he is permanently dead now¡­"

    "The awesome guy has just died¡­"

    Even Yuan Ji was speechless when he saw the scene, "This¡­"

    Ling Feiyue said coolly, "He is just a noob that uses too much of his profound strength at the very start. If he has better control or is a saint level cultivator, he should be able to clear this trial."

    Yuan Ji could only say, "Well, he did use his life to show everyone the expectations."

    Then he added sadly, "If he didn''t use his spirit entity to show off in front of us, he would probably clear this trial almost effortlessly."

    Ling Feiyue nodded as she said, "Although having a spirit entity was a great advantage but it would also consumed a great deal of the cultivator''s profound strength to maintain it."

    Many of the cultivators were now muttering with shock, "So who''s next?"

    Suddenly two of the cultivators were saying to each other, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ brother, I don''t have the courage to kill myself. Why don''t I kill you and you kill me?"

    "Right. If we''re lucky and the trial portal isn''t closed yet, we can still retake the trial again. And we will be mindful abouting this way to take this trial again."

    "s, I really regret taking the yellow portal and I should have taken the blue portal." The same cultivator wasmenting loud now.

    With that, the two cultivators had ''killed'' themselves and had vanished from view.

    After these two cultivators had killed themselves, they were quickly followed by sixteen more cultivators. It was because they all felt their poor heart could not take it and the profound de seemed to be aiming for the hearts.

    Yuan Ji muttered, "These cultivators¡­"

    But he quickly calmed himself down and said, "Guess we can only use our profound lightless skill now."

    And when he had said that, he had already sped past through the dozens of flying profound des.

    Everyone was holding their breath; it was because they could only see the many afterimages of Yuan Ji and it seemed to them that he had narrowly avoided being hit by the profound des each time.

    Many of the cultivators that did not have a superb divine sense were all gasping and had thought that he had been struck but it turned out to be his afterimage instead.

    In less than ten blink of an eye, he had already reached to the other end in safety, stunning all the onlookers.

    More than three hundred profound des were seen flying all over the hallway and it had all missed Yuan Ji.

    There was no other description other than absolute astonishment to describe his profound lightless feat that awed many of the onlookers except for one.

    And that was Ling Feiyue.

    It was because Ling Feiyue was the next one to speed past the deadly profound des in a straight line with her afterimages and she had only taken seven blinks of an eye.

    Everyone was stunned by her lightless movement that was being disyed by her.

    It was because Yuan Ji was already a record breaker and now they had another record breaker.

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly to Ling Feiyue, "You just take away my limelight."

    Ling Feiyue lit a gentle smile, "Do you really think that you think that you''re the main lead of the story?"

    Yuan Ji answered weakly, "I thought I am¡­"

    But he quickly rebuked her gently, "Just because you want to show off, you have expended so much of your profound strength. Didn''t you say that you want to conserve your profound strength. Is it worth it?"

    Ling Feiyue hummed with a beautiful smile, "Because I like."

    Profound lightless art actually consumed a great deal of the cultivator''s profound strength. The faster it was, the greater effort it was to maintain it and hence it consumed even more profound strength. Every step beyond the limit could have the effect of consuming double the profound strength!

    This was likened to a sword that was thrust into the ground. While a cultivator could casually thrust a sword several inches into the ground with a swung of their profound strength but every additional inch would require double the profound power due to ground resistance.

    Stories about cultivators destroying mountains and huge boulders were only used in metaphor speeches to describe how powerful they were but the truth was that none could even barely moved a huge boulder much less than destroying it as the shock resistance and density of therge rocks could easily absorb the profound power of the cultivators.

    A lightning bolt had more profound power than the strongest cultivator. What a lightning bolt could not damage, the cultivator was unable to do so as well.

    After the two of them had cleared the trial of the flying profound des, there were twenty more cultivators that had also made through it. Among the twenty, ten were seriously wounded and another four had light wounds.

    Although there were six others that were not injured as they also had superb lightless skill but none of them were able to clear it within forty blinks of an eye.

    Among the survivors were two golden celestials.

    All in all, forty cultivators had failed the trial.

    Soon everyone was in another hallway and this hallway was leading them to another grand hall which had two shimmering portals.

    And suddenly everyone was beaming with excitement.

    It was because this was the reward hall!

    There was a ck stele in the hall and touching it immediately revealed to them that they would now be able to im their rewards.

    One portal would lead to the Weapon Hall for them to pick a weapon of their choice as a reward.

    The other portal would lead to the Alchemy Hall for them to pick a profound pill as a reward.

    Ling Feiyue was a little unhappy with Yuan Ji for waiting earlier so that he could see which of the cultivators could make it through the trial.

    It was because the two of them were actually the first to clear the trial. Therefore if they could each go to the Weapon and Alchemy Hall, they would have a chance to make the first pick.

    Now that everyone knew what the rewards would be, there was a mad rush to the two portals.

    Most of the cultivators had picked the Weapon Hall because there may be a chance for a divine sword to be given. If not, a heaven-step precious sword was also thought to be good enough!

    Sixteen of the cultivators had picked the Weapon Hall while the Alchemy Hall was picked by the two golden celestials and two other lower level cultivators.

    As for why the golden celestials picked the Alchemy Hall over the Weapon Hall, it was because they were desperate for some profound pills for their breakthrough. Therefore their choices were not surprising to Yuan Ji.

    The lower level cultivators would usually prefer weapons to aid them inbat and at the same time it would also help them to climb further in their n tournament rankings. When their n ranking improved, naturally they would be allocated profound pills and other cultivation resources.

    This was what Yuan Ji had analyzed and he had said it to Ling Feiyue while rubbing his chin.

    "Enough of your analyzing already." Ling Feiyue was really unhappy now. "Can we please make our own choices now? All the good stuffs are already taken away."

    She really could not believe that Yuan Ji was just watching everyone curiously and waiting to see what portals they would be picking.

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulder as he said nonchntly, "Alright, it is our turn to choose now."

    "The Weapon Hall or Alchemy Hall? Ling Feiyue asked with a soft resignation. It seemed that she was the one regrettinging with Yuan Ji because he seemed to be enjoying himself.

    Whether it was the Weapon Hall or the Alchemy Hall, it did not matter now because they were not the first.

    Yuan Ji was staring at the two portals and he had suddenly used his sword to deflect the light of the two portals together and had revealed a secret third portal.

    With a grin, he said to Ling Feiyue. "We are taking this third portal."

    Ling Feiyue was stunned as she stammered with disbelief, "How did you know that there is a third portal?!"

    Yuan Ji grabbed her wrist to pull her to him before saying, "The stele will sometimes lie. I tell you when we''re inside before we have morepany."

    Ling Feiyue was stunned. The stele in the trials was like the absolute truth and no one had a reason to believe that it would lie.

 Chapter 55 The Secret Cultivation Hall (1)

    Upon entering through the third portal, was a big hall with many shelves. At the end of the hall were two portals; one blue and one green.

    There was arge ck stele where they had appeared near to and they quickly put their hands on it so that they could understand where they were now at and for any extra information.

    "Cultivation Hall!" Ling Feiyue gasped softly. She really could not believe that they had found a secret cultivation hall where cultivation practices were stored.

    Yuan Ji nodded with a wry smile, "We can only take one away though. Just one. Why not three or more?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "You are so greedy."

    Yuan Jiughed, "That is because I''m too poor to buy cultivation manuals."

    In the celestial fraternity, cultivation manuals could easily cost an arm and a leg.

    "You seem to be really experienced with the trials? You have been to many of the trials in the celestial fraternity?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Yuan Jiughed, "Not really. Only three."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    She was stunned. It was because she could describe herself as an experienced trial cultivator by now, having visited more than thirty ces for various trials. Some of the trials were even more dangerous and higher level than the Lotus Sword Mansion.

    "In your lifetime, you have only been to three trials?!" She was finding it difficult to believe him and to ept what he had just said. After all, Yuan Ji was a high level cultivator and it was impossible for him to been to just three trials in his lifetime. Even a lowly fourth realm cultivator may have already been to more than ten trials as part of the n mission.

    "Yes just three trials." Yuan Ji replied without a change in his expression. He was dead serious.

    "You are lying¡­" Ling Feiyue had an unpleasant look on her countenances. It was because she detested liars and especially if the liar was a man that she liked.

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly when he saw her expressions.

    He quickly said to pacify her, "Although I have been to only three trial ces but I had actually visited each one more than a hundred times."

    Ling Feiyue was stunned. A hundred times?!

    She smiled bitterly, "For the trial to open so frequently and you can even visit it a hundred times, it must be some low level trials. With your cultivation level and strength, you ought to explore other trial ces with a much higher difficulty."

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "It is because I feel that I haven''t explored the trials thoroughly enough."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "Is there a need to explore so thoroughly? And a hundred times? It is just a waste of time."

    She returned a soft sigh before asking, "So you can now tell me how you know that there is actually a hidden portal earlier?"

    Yuan Ji returned her a gentle look, "If I tell you, you have to be my woman. Will that be alright to you?"

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes shyly as she cursed softly, "Dream on!"

    Yuan Ji was only teasing her.

    He quickly exined, "There are three portals inside the iron pagoda. So it is a clue that the trial inside will have three options."

    Ling Feiyue was startled, "How did you find out? I mean, no one think of this before."

    Yuan Ji said, "I found out about it by ident. Have you ever wonder why some trials have two portals and why some trials have three portals? And the order seems to be random?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled awkwardly, "Actually no one cares why there are two or three portals as long as they can ovee it. You¡­you are the queer one."

    "If you have explored the same trial for a hundred times, you will also notice it." Yuan Ji said matter of fact.

    Ling Feiyue smiled bitterly, "A hundred times¡­in a low level trial¡­no way¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially for a while before he smiled, "Don''t you feel that it is weird that this level actually contains two trials? One for reaching the iron pagoda and another inside the iron pagoda? If we just go to the third level, we won''t get any reward at all and at the same time, the rewards are too straightforward?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly as she shook her head lightly, "Actually no. I always thought it is the nature of the trial itself."

    She was secretly flushing, "He has actually found a bug in the trials and he is telling me so freely? He¡­trusts me¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Let''s take a look around here. Maybe the cultivation practices here are just some low level ones and not worth our time."

    Ling Feiyue smiled shyly, "Alright, my lord."

    Yuan Ji''s heart was pounding rapidly when he suddenly heard her calling him her lord.

    Just as he was about to tease her back, she had shyly disappeared among the shelves.

    "Well then, I should focus on finding a suitable cultivation practice. It may or may not be useful but it would be good to have an alternative. I need to find something useful to defeat the old master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­s¡­and I am almost out of time."

    The main reason why he was interested in the trials was because the Lotus Sword Mansion gave an above average reward forpleting the trials and he needed to find any weapons, pills, cultivation methods or anything that he could find to have a fighting chance in the duel four monthster.

    He quietly went to the nearest shelf and immediately started his browsing.

    There were many cultivation slips on the shelf.

    Yuan Ji examined the first cultivation slip that he saw, "Golden Bell Profound Defense. Interesting."

    Out of curiosity, he took the cultivation slip to read its description. "The profound technique of strengthening the profound aura into an imprable shroud, shaping the profound aura into the likeness of a golden bell, condensing one''s profound aura into twoyers of defenses¡­"

    Yuan Ji was gasping with shock, "This is an advance cultivation profound art!"

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, if one got an advance cultivation profound art then they would be able to found a celestial n. Take his Major Heavens Sword for example which was the secret sword art of the Orthodox Sword Sect, it was an example of an advance sword profound art. With that, his ancestor patriarch had founded the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    The cultivation slip only contained the descriptions. If he really wanted the actual cultivation practice of this profound art then he would have to take this cultivation slip to the exit portal. After which, he would then receive the full cultivation practice.

    All of a sudden the cultivation slip had vanished from his hands and had returned to the shelf.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he pondered. It seemed that if he was not reading or imbuing his profound power on the cultivation slip, it would disappear after some time.

    "Absolute defense skill. This may be the profound defense skill that I may need to withstand the profound might of an upper seventh realm sacred saint..."

    All of a sudden he had recalled how Han Guanglie had died and he had lost his interest in this Golden Bell Profound Defense Profound Art.

    He could suddenly hear Ling Feiyue shouting to him on the other side, "Ji Yuan, did you see the cultivation slips? These are all advance cultivation methods. Sword art, internal profound art, external profound art, cultivation art¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. There were literally thousands of cultivation slips here and it was a hard choice to choose which cultivation practices to pick. The reward in this secret portal seemed to be better than the highest level of the Lotus Sword Mansion that could be given out and even rivaled all the previous trials that he had been to in the past.

    When there were too many choices, the choice would be a difficult one.

    But luckily for Yuan Ji, he had only a limited choice because he was only interested in looking for a cultivation practice that he could learn in as little as four months.

    Therefore he began to pick and toss away the cultivation slips as he moved around hastily.

    Eventually he found a cultivation slip that had caught his interest.

    "Hmm, the True Sacred Saint Profound Art?"

    He was half-amused. "There is such a thing as a true sacred saint? It must be a joke from some ancient celestials or immortal cultivators."

    Curious, he began to browse the description with more in-depth.

    "The soul sea is the source of all the cultivation profound strength. In the soul sea, it is where the cultivation core is formed and the cultivators will be able to harness their profound strength by condensing the profound energies through the absorption of spiritual aura from the environment¡­"

    He skipped to the more advance descriptions.

    "In order to form the Pure Core within the soul sea, the cultivator must first attain to the fourth realm level energy level first. Forming the Pure Core will allow the cultivator to increase their profound strength by 20%..."

    "Forming the Gold Core at the fifth realm level will increase the maximum profound strength by up to 30% and improve innate profound strength by 3% per tier..."

    "Forming the Spirit Core at the sixth realm spirit level will increase the maximum profound strength by up to 40% and improve innate profound strength by additional 4% per tier..."

    "Forming the Soul Core at the seventh realm soul level will increase the maximum profound strength by up to 50% and improve innate profound strength by 5% per tier¡­"

    Yuan Ji was quite startled by this find. This was not only an advanced internal profound art and it even be considered a divine profound art!

    This was a divine profound art that could raise the cultivator''s innate profound strength. If his innate profound strength could improve then he would be able to learn the more advance stages of his Major Heavens Sword without even a need to attain to the middle and upper tier of the sacred saint level.

    The main reason why the seven major orthodox patriarch ns and the five unorthodox heretic sects were such a major power in the cultivation fraternity was because they all had some divine profound arts to back their celestial ns.

    Take the Celestial Orthodox Sect for example; their most powerful profound art was the Sacred Maiden Profound Art which was an internal profound art. Because of this profound art, Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was able to advance fairly quickly in her cultivation level and her profound strength was unusually strong for her level.

    Yuan Ji had personally witnessed her turning an envelope into a secret projectile through her internal profound strength and the prating power unleashed by her was startling.

    "Gold core¡­this is interesting¡­" He was now muttering.<sub> </sub>

    He had heard that in the past the ancient celestials that had cultivated their cultivation core into a golden core was much stronger than the celestials now. There was even a spirit core and a soul core to be mastered.

    This was a lost divine profound art!

    Or even a supreme divine profound art!

    To think that he could casually find it in this ce?

    Yuan Ji sighed softly. Although this cultivation practice was tempting but it was not what he was looking for.

    With a shrug of his shoulder, he tossed the cultivation slip away as he felt that it would take too long to cultivate it.

    So he moved on to the other shelves.

    Very soon, he had found another interesting cultivation slip.

    "Hm, the Divine Heart Recite. This is an intricate recite form on how to control the heart beat and to disy absolute calmness even in the most dire of situations."

    Intricate recite forms were unlike the powerful profound arts as its uses were not obvious. Rather it contains several aphorisms that were keys to understand the various principles of cultivation.

    "I wonder what the tier of this Divine Heart Recite is? Is it standard, advanced or divine?"

    Just based on the description alone, there was no way that he would know.

    Yuan Ji was a little intrigued by it but because he did not know which tier this Divine Heart Recite was so he casually tossed it away.

    The reason why he was intrigued by it was because when the cultivators fought with each other, there were three factors that could determine the winning oue; profound arts, profound strength and the human factor.

    The profound strength factor was easy enough to exin. It was the cultivator''s cultivation realm level.

    The profound arts factor was the internal profound art, profound power arts, lightless profound art, weapons used and martial profound arts.

    The human factor was the cultivator''s current mental fortitude, willpower, fighting spirit and perception.

    Yuan Ji was a Sword Saint because he had relied more on the human factor to defeat his opponents especially with his sharp sense of observation on his opponents and his undying fighting spirit. He had also a strong mental fortitude in defeats and he would calmly re-calcte his odds for the next victory.

    He had thought that he may be able to defeat Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue by going for his seventh realm breakthrough, rather than epting defeat on the spot. Every action of his was nned for his next fighting chance and he was unaffected by defeats or the superiority of his opponents.

    Next he moved on to another shelf after quickly browsing through several cultivation slips.

    "What is it?"

    "Sacred Maiden Profound Art. Isn''t this the divine skill of the Celestial Orthodox Sect? This divine skill belongs to the top ten most powerful internal profound arts."

    "The Sacred Maiden Profound Art can only be practiced by women. It is most effective if the cultivator is a chaste maiden. Altogether there are nine stages to this internal profound art¡­"

    He quickly skipped to the more important descriptions. "The cultivators of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art must be wary not to give away their chastity so easily. It is because the other party will receive a portion of the Sacred Maiden Profound Energies which in turn could speed up the cultivation of profound energies and the practitioner would no longer be able to advance in her Sacred Maiden Profound Art¡­"

    When Yuan Ji had read to this part, he was startled; this confirmed the a long standing rumor that If the chastity of the Sacred Maiden was taken, it would be able to aid the taker in his realm breakthrough and even had the effect of strengthening the purity of the soul sea''s profound energies.

    There were other benefits by dual cultivating with a practitioner of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art but Yuan Ji was disinterested in reading anymore. It was because he was thinking of Xue Qianxue now and her sacrifices for him.

    "Qianxue knew that she was making a great sacrifice for me and yet she willingly gives up her celestial practice for my sake. It is because she knows that I will be having a duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. She didn''t even tell me¡­"

    He was extremely touched and said solemnly in his heart, "Qianxue, I will get you out of the Celestial Orthodox Sect before my duel."

    With that he tossed the cultivation slip away.

    Soon he found another cultivation slip.

    "The Unrighteous Moon Profound Force. Isn''t this the divine profound art of Ling Feiyue''s Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    He quietly put it back to the shelf. In the past, he would be interested to know Ling Feiyue''s strengths and weaknesses. But not anymore.

    "Lightning God Divine Skill."

    "Generating the profound energies of lightning to use as your own profound strength and generate the profound power of lightning. This skill looks really overpowered¡­"

    "Weakness: Only usable during thunderstorm days."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I need to find a way to control the weather first. Hmm, the Celestial Orthodox Sect has a celestial array to generate the golden tribtion lightning. I wonder if they will be willing to help me during my duel¡­"

    He quietly tossed the cultivation slip away as he continued to search the shelf.

    Soon...

    "Supreme Dual Cultivation."

    "Why am I looking at this? Haha. Supreme Dual Cultivation drawn upon the yin essences of the female cultivators to nourish the cultivation core instead of depending on spiritual aura. The higher realm level of the dual cultivation target, the more benefits it reap."

    "s, I''m a man of culture¡­"

    He was now imagining himself with Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue now¡­

    "The target of the Supreme Dual Cultivation will slowly lose their vitality and unable to leave the practitioner¡­"

    "Weakness: the practitioner''s urges will always be on an overdrive¡­"

    He was frowning lightly before he threw away the cultivation slip with a little hesitation.

    "Although this skill can be mastered as little as a month but it will turn my love ones into a melting cauldron for my own vile pleasures."

    Reading the description of this cultivation slip had suddenly made him think of Ling Feiyue now.

    He had quickly realized that many hours had passed. As a matter of fact, they had been here for a long time.

    He began to wonder what Ling Feiyue was doing now.

    He soon found her at the other side and she was giggling with delight as she read the descriptions of the cultivation slip that she was holding.

    "Why is that I find her ten times more prettier now even though she is still cross-dressing as a man?"

    She was so engrossed in her reading that she did not notice that Yuan Ji had quietly approached her.

    "Feiyue, I think we ought to choose a cultivation slip fast and move on to the next level trial."

    Ling Feiyue looked up with a beaming smile as she said enthralling, "Ji Yuan, shall we stay here a little longer? I don''t want to leave this ce. This whole ce is way better thanpleting the entire trial. I''m staying here until I''ve finished reading the descriptions of all the cultivation practices."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji frowned, "This will take months and years. Moreover you can only read the descriptions and not practice it. Don''t forget that I still have a duel in four months."

    The enthralling eyes of Ling Feiyue were smiling at him as she giggled beautifully, "Look at this description. It is so funny. This is the cultivation method of my most hated rival and he''s from one of the five major unorthodox sects. Let me read it out for you¡­"

    "Although the Dark Solstice Profound Art is extremely powerful but the practitioner must be warned that the pace of regaining profound strength will be slowed down by 90%. The practitioner can only cultivate to regain his lost profound strength and no amount of divine pills will be able to replenish back the lost profound strength. Also be warned not to take the ascension to transmigration to the Immortal Realm, it will surely fail."

    Ling Feiyue wasughing and giggling while holding onto her belly, giving off an enthralling look. "So my hatred rival has such a weakness in his profound art. This is so funny¡­so this is the hidden reprisals in his profound arts. No wonder he is always so eager to finish the fight so hastily. Next time, I will slowly drain his profound strength by dying the fight..."

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly as he was not amused. "Feiyue, we really should go. How many cultivation slips have you checked already?"

    Ling Feiyue refused to answer his first question and instead she answered his second question, "About thirty."

    Yuan Ji almost fainted on the spot. "Thirty?!" He could not help gasping out loud.

    Only thirty cultivation slips after so many hours had passed?!

    It was because he had already browsed through several hundreds of cultivation slips in the same time that she had browsed through the thirty cultivation slips.

    Browsing was actually the wrong word. She was actually reading very thoroughly.

    "Look at this Ji Yuan. The first form of the Dark Solstice Profound Art requires thirty years of constant cultivation in order to merge with the Heavens and the Earth. If the practitioner has reached the golden celestial level, the time taken will be halved. If the practitioner has reached the golden supremacy level, the time taken will be further halved. It halved again if the practitioner is at the sacred saint level. The second form will require double the time¡­"

    Yuan Ji was rolling his eyes. She was reading too much information. At her current rate of reading, she would never be able to leave this ce for a few years.

    Ling Feiyue was looking with admiration at Yuan Ji, "After I''ve finished reading all the cultivation slips here, I may well be the most knowledgeable celestial in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. And it all thanks to you."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You know. I really regreting here. You''re so right earlier."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "Well, I don''t regret it. Why don''t you go away for now¡­"

 Chapter 56 The Secret Cultivation Hall (2)

    Yuan Ji had suddenly grabbed Ling Feiyue by her waist and he was slowly drawing her near to him.

    Ling Feiyue was startled when he had suddenly grabbed her. But she soon regained herposure and closed her eyes in anticipation.

    Yuan Ji gulped when he saw that she had closed her enthralling eyes. Was this a yes?

    He was not going to waste this golden opportunity to kiss a goddess. Therefore he bent his head a little lower to kiss her on her lovely red lips.

    He saw that she did not resist at all but was embracing him now.

    So he took it a step further by holding her tighter to him. As he was kissing her passionately, he was also feeling her smooth back and was feeling her bottom as well.

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly when she had felt his fingers below her.

    She gently pushed him away and was smiling gently, "You must be browsing some dual cultivation technique just now, am I right? You look horny."

    Yuan Ji put on a straight face andughed, "Of course not. I am here to warn you."

    "Warn me? For?"

    Yuan Ji began to say solemnly, "There is something fishy about this ce. It seems to be a time trap and you are not yourself earlier."

    Ling Feiyue frowned lightly, "I am not?"

    Yuan Ji said, "Feel your profound strength."

    Ling Feiyue immediately circted her vital breath and was startled that she seemed weaker now. "What is going on here?"

    Yuan Ji said solemnly, "At first I''ve thought that it is my excitement that have caused my profound strength to decline but then I realized that we seem to be in a time trap that is slowly snapping our profound strength at an elerate rate."

    Ling Feiyue was startled as her eyes shed around. "This is a trap? Isn''t this the reward room?" Come to think of it, she felt that her behavior was a little out of the norm now that Yuan Ji had mentioned to her.

    Yuan Ji nodded, "It may be the reward hall but it is also a double edged sword. When I saw your earlier expression, I am actually quite startled."

    "What expression?" Ling Feiyue shyly asked.

    "You seem to be obsessed by these cultivation slips. With your attainment, it seems unlikely that you will be bothered with most of the cultivation slips here." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    "Is that so?" Ling Feiyue muttered with a flushed look. But she was thinking, "But some of the cultivation slips are some of the most powerful profound divine arts that I''ve never seen before. Anyone else will also be tempted."

    "Do you know where the rewards of the trial hade from?" Yuan Ji suddenly asked her.

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly frowning lightly, "From the Immortal Realm? No one really knows."

    Yuan Ji asked, "Then do you know where the Heavenly Relics that are used to craft divine swordse from then?"

    Ling Feiyue slowly nodded, "When an enlightened celestial fails the ascension, there may be a chance for the Heavenly Relic to appear from the bones of their failed ascension."

    Yuan Ji nodded, "You are right."

    Ling Feiyue nodded slowly, "This is actuallymon knowledge."

    Yuan Ji exined next, "I suspect that the rewards from the trialse from the dead bodies and items of the cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue was gasping softly. "I have never thought of this way before. Where did you get this idea from?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin and said, "It is because we are not the highest existence here and there is still the Immortal Realm where even more wondrous things can still be seen. If we can cultivate through the spiritual auras and use the cultivation resources in the mountains, the trials may be a living entity that cultivates by feeding upon the profound strength of the dead cultivators. There must be a source of energy to replenish the trials or it won''t make any sense at all."

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "Then why not kill all the cultivators that enter the trial instead? Why not make it even more dangerous?"

    After a short hesitation, Yuan Ji replied with a smile. "If all the cultivators are killed then there will be no one to feed the trials anymore. Or maybe that is an immortalw in this ce that affects its behavior."

    Ling Feiyue averted her nces to the shelves as she said gently, "Maybe."

    "Therefore, we need to quickly make our pick and get out of here." Yuan Ji continued.

    Ling Feiyue nodded but she was soon smiling, "Give me a few more hours. I''ve barely started. I need some time to make my pick. Maybe you can spend some time to study the behavior of the trial first. Let me know if you have a good answerter."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji sighed silently, "She isn''t paying attention to what I''ve just said and she needs several hours¡­"

    "One hour maybe?" Ling Feiyue chuckled softly when she saw his expression.

    "No. I will help you to pick." Yuan Ji frowned.

    "This isn''t a good idea. How do you know what I will need?" Ling Feiyue protested weakly.

    But Yuan Ji had already grabbed her hand and pulled her along with him.

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly when he had pulled her hand.

    "I''m not his woman yet but he is treating me like I''m his little lover? Maybe I ought to remind him that I am the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue? He ought to show me a little respect..." She was secretly sighing in her heart.

    Soon they were at a shelf and Yuan Ji showed her the cultivation slip that contained the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    Ling Feiyue was startled after she had started to browse it and she was soon gasping with shock. "This is a supreme profound art. Did you know that several centuries ago, there was a terrible catastrophe that had befallen the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity just because a fragment of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art had been found in a trial?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I do not know. I was not born yet."

    "In the end, tens of thousands of cultivators from hundreds of celestial ns were all fighting for it. It was so terrible that dozens of prominent celestial ns were all wiped out after that catastrophe." She sighed.

    "Who got that fragment in the end?"

    "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce." Ling Feiyue said.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce again¡­"

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Only when the Hundred Flower Divine Pce got its hand on it, did the fighting stop. It was because the challengers to the Hundred Flower Divine Pce were all killed by the top experts from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. That''s why."

    "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce is really so formidable?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    "Even the other two most unfathomable pces of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Water Melody Pce were all soundly defeated by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. That is how fearsome the Hundred Flower Divine Pce really is."

    "So the Hundred Flower Divine Pce has a fragment of this True Sacred Saint Profound Art now." Yuan Ji rubbed his chin.

    "But why are you giving it to me instead of keeping it for yourself?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously as she looked at him shyly at the same time.

    "You''re already a great saintess. You don''t need the most powerful profound arts to help you to ovee your opponents. You only need those profound arts that can aid your eventual ascension to the Immortal Realm. With luck, you may even be the first celestial practitioner to do in several centuries and your name will be remembered in the hearts of everyone in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    He paused to add, "The profound art within the True Sacred Saint Profound Art will be able to strengthen your cultivation core and moreover you got several thousands of years to delve into its mysteries."

    Ling Feiyue clutched onto the cultivation slip in her bosoms as she looked bleary at him, "Thank you¡­my future lord is so nice to me."

    Yuan Jiughed but he was actually thinking, "I won''t be your future lord if I am a dead man in four months'' time. It is better that you find yourself a more worthy lord. But I am content to have kissed the beautiful lips of the Goddess Ling Feiyue and have her in my embrace for a short while."

    Ling Feiyue was truly extremely touched in her heart. Originally she had already admired Ji Yuan before she had set him up. This was something that she was too shy to tell him about it and she had kept to herself. But this admiration was slowly turned into a quiet love for him now.

    For over a hundred years, she had a mix feeling about Ji Yuan and even med herself for his sudden disappearance.<sub> </sub>

    But now, it seemed that things were looking good for them but then he had a life and death duel in four months.

    She silently said, "Ji Yuan, I won''t let you die. I will help you to fight the Hundred Flower Divine Pce even if it means the destruction of my entire sect!"

    Yuan Ji suddenly said, "Come, follow me. I show you the cultivation slip that I will be picking."

    Ling Feiyue nodded with a smile, "The cultivation slip that you found must surely be a most impressive profound art. Let me guess. Is it a dual cultivation art? Because you are looking at me so lecherous earlier."

    Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "Not really."

    Soon he had taken her to a shelf and showed her the cultivation slip that contained the Divine Heart Recite.

    "What is it?" Ling Feiyue took the cultivation slip from him to read.

    She was soon frowning lightly, "It is only an intricacy form for calming the heart. This cultivation skill is not even a profound art. Don''t pick this and choose another better one."

    Yuan Ji smiled, "I''ve already decided on it."

    Ling Feiyue was stunned, "But why? It is useless."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "I don''t have much time to pick up any cultivation practice. I have only less than four months'' time."

    Then he grinned, "The reason why I am picking this is because I''m afraid that I will be nervous when I''m fighting the old master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and this heart intricacy form may be useful to me."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "But of course that isn''t the most important reason. In front of you, I am still so shy. So I need this Divine Heart Recite to calm my heart down when I am facing a goddess like you¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him woefully, "Don''t pick this cultivation slip please." She knew that he was only saying that to pacify her.

    But in the end, Ling Feiyue had failed to persuade Yuan Ji.

    And they soon took the cultivation slip to the exit portal.

    As they stepped through the exit portal, they soon found themselves in an open space. In front of them was ck stele and the cultivation slips that they had taken had transformed into cultivation scrolls.

    Ling Feiyue opened up her cultivation scroll with trembling fingers and she was soon gasping, "This is really the full cultivation methods of refining the cultivation core to a golden core¡­"

    At the same time that Ling Feiyue was inspecting her cultivation scroll, Yuan Ji was also doing the same.

    Yuan Ji''s eyes were soon staring with excitement as he took a quick look.

    This Divine Heart Recite was actually a much more superior heart intricate form than the one that he was practicing to control his heartbeat and the one that he was practicing was actually an advance heart intricacy form.

    Therefore this Divine Heart Recite was actually a Divine Profound Art.

    He had taken a gambit on it because he was intrigued by it. Luckily for him, he was not disappointed.

    There were actually only three stages to this Divine Heart Recite, the Absolute Spirits, the Undying Fighting Spirit and the Natural Instinct.

    The first stage was the Absolute Spirits, unaffected by the superiority of the opponents and a single-minded on concentration.

    The first stage was simr to his own heart intricacy and he quickly mastered it with just a look bybining it with his own.

    The second stage was the Undying Fighting Spirit that cultivates his spirit level to a heighten sense.

    He began to recite silently, "As long as the will of the practitioner lives on, the fighting spirit will never cease. My will is the absolute and my faith is unshakable¡­"

    Although he was already a seventh realm expert now, attaining both the soul level and the spirit level but just reciting the intricate form of the Undying Fighting Spirit alone was still not enough to grasp the state of divinity that was required to merge it into his innate consciousness.

    The third stage was the Natural Instinct in which his natural speed and reflexes would increase over the limit.

    Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin as he pondered, "Natural Instinct. This is interesting."

    He took another look and was soon frowning. In order to aplish this principle into his innate strength, he had to first merge his body, soul and spirit as one first.

    But luckily for him, there were actually several cultivation methods within the Divine Heart Recite for aiding him to master it.

    The Divine Heart Recite was moreplete than he had actually expected and there were ten additional cultivation methods that were given in the scroll for him to realize all three stages of the Divine Heart Recite.

    It was like giving him ten additional free cultivation profound arts!

    Heaven, Earth and Mortal as One!

    Perfect Heartbeat!

    Awakened Seventh Sense!

    Three-in-One Reflex!

    Attunement to the Spiritual Aura!

    Divine Sense Revtion!

    Profound Energies Attunement!

    Immortal Body!

    Supreme Soul Force!

    Spirit Perceptions!

    Yuan Ji was now cursing silently, "I have picked the easiest to learn useful cultivation practice and now I have ended up with eleven cultivation practices to master. This is too ridiculous¡­"

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue just stood there for a long time to study their new cultivation practice and it was only when they were disturbed by a booming sound from the mountains in the horizon that they had realized that they had been secretly cultivating their new cultivation practice for an unknown number of hours.

    They hadpletely forgotten that they were still in the middle of an on-going trial!

    The two of them were looking at each other sheepishly.

    "Haha." Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "I didn''t want to disturb you."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently as she gave him a most adorable look, "I''m the one that didn''t want to disturb you. This True Sacred Saint Profound Art is really good. Are you sure you don''t want it? This is after all a supreme profound art that everyone wants."

    Yuan Ji shook his head as he said at the same time, "I don''t have the time to master something as profound as the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. Moreover the new cultivation practice that I''ve picked seems pretty good too. That is enough for me."

    Ling Feiyue was smiling in her heart. "He is so good to me. He has given me such a valuable cultivation profound art and he has only taken an inferior cultivation practice. From now onward, I''m going to follow you forever¡­"

    Her thoughts were quickly interrupted by Yuan Ji who said, "Look at us. We haven''t touched the ck stele yet and what was that booming sound earlier too?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Let us touch this ck stele here and see what the third level trial entails?"

    Yuan Ji nodded and with that the two of them had touched the ck stele at the same time.

    They were both gasping at the same time.

    It was because this was a ughter trial.

    "ughter trial?!"

    They had to ughter or be ughtered for merit points in order to go to the next trial level.

 Chapter 57 The Slaughter Trial (1)

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were now staring quietly at the ck stele now.

    ording to the ck stele, they would have seven days to aplish this trial or they would be forcefully expelled from this ce.

    And ording to the ck stele, they had only one day left now!

    The information of the trial was now flowing into their minds as profound energies.

    "Seven days toplete the trial¡­1 day remaining¡­"

    "umte 100 merit points or more before entering the blue portal to the next exit¡­"

    "Killing a first realm cultivator will gain you one 1 merit point¡­"

    "Killing a second realm cultivator will gain you 3 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a third realm cultivator will gain you 5 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a forth realm cultivator will gain you 10 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a fifth realm cultivator will gain you 25 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a sixth realm cultivator will gain you 50 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a seventh realm cultivator will gain you 100 merit points¡­"

    "Killing a cultivator with merit points will gain you 3 merit points for every 10 merit points they have¡­"

    "Erm, we have been in the Cultivation Hall for six days?" Yuan Ji was the first to ask.

    Even Ling Feiyue was shocked to realize that the time flew fast while they were inside the Cultivation Hall. Luckily Yuan Ji had realized that something was amiss and had suggested that they left the ce as quickly as possible.

    She had also realized that she lost quite a bit of her profound strength without realizing it while she was inside. So she quickly popped in a fourth rank golden pill that was used for replenishing lost profound strength.

    "Here!" She threw one more of the golden pill to Yuan Ji who caught it with his fingers.

    Yuan Ji was frowning lightly, "Golden Dragon Rejuvenation Pill. s, I have only taken only once in my life time and was lucky to have found only one in my lifetime."

    Ling Feiyue returned a gentle smile to him before saying, "I have a dozen of these pills with me and more in my sect. Do you want some more?"

    Yuan Ji muttered something incoherently before he said. "No thanks."

    "You''re cursing me?" She was suddenly frowning. She really had sharp ears and she could pick up some incoherent sentences of Yuan Ji describing her as from a rich celestial n.

    Yuan Ji put on a straight face andughed, "I am just saying that it is good to know someone from a rich celestial n."

    Ling Feiyue shed her eyes as she fanned herself before asking suspiciously, "Really?"

    "Really. Haha."

    Yuan Ji continued with a solemn look.  "Anyway back to this trial. We have only one day toplete this trial so we should make haste."

    Ling Feiyue nodded before she smiled, "It won''t be easy to find the other cultivators. By now, they should all be in hiding now and they must have marked their territories. As soon as we enter their territories, the weaker ones may not even choose to fight with us. After all we are two golden celestials."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he rubbed his chin. He had cheated once when he was a fifth realm cultivator. At that time he had just be a golden celestial and had used his mystic eye concealing art to suppress his golden eyes.

    Although he had won the ughter trial but he did not feel great about it.

    "Any bright ideas?" Ling Feiyue asked him.

    Yuan Ji said coolly, "Let''s move in a straight line first and find the next level portals¡­"

    When he had said that, Ling Feiyue was smiling. "I know your n. Since this is thest day already, everyone will be trying to get thest of the merit points in order to qualify for the next level trial. Therefore they will all be watching the next level portal or will be nearby."

    Yuan Ji smiled, "That''s right."

    "This is a badass n. We are two saint level cultivators here. Anyone that tries to attack us will be in for a surprise." Ling Feiyue smiled.

    "Unless it is necessary, we should restrain our profound strength first. If we disy our higher realm profound strength first, no one will be willing to fight us." Yuan Ji added.

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Totally agree."

    "Let''s go now!" Yuan Jiughed as he threw his cultivation scroll into his spatial ring.

    With that, they had hastily sped forward.

    Two hourster as the two of them sped into a path with two tall cliffs, there was a soft feminineughter. "Look we have two pigs here who are delivering themselves to us today."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were startled.

    It was because their divine senses did not alert them to any intruders nearby.

    As they looked up, there was a group of cultivators on top of them; one handsome man and six beautiful veiled maidens were seen standing on the top of the ledge just above them.

    And all six of them were golden celestials!

    Although they could not tell what their realm levels were but they could tell from their unsettling presence that these six were all dangerous opponents!

    Yuan Ji quickly said with a wary look at the six golden celestials, "They are dangerous." With that he had already unsheathed his divine sword.

    Although Ling Feiyue was also rmed but she whispered to Yuan Ji, "We are going to have some fun soon."

    Yuan Ji returned her a weak smile, "Unless of course they are also seventh realm experts."

    Ling Feiyue said with an amused smile, "There aren''t so many seventh realm experts around. And we are the two here."

    "Yun''Er go! Settle them!" A veiled maiden in ck in the group said to the handsome man.

    Yuan Ji was gasping now because he saw that the beautiful veiled maiden in ck that had spoken seemed to give off a most mesmerizing air and her golden eyes seemed to be sucking him in.

    And the profound strength of her voice clearly marked her as a seventh realm saintess!

    He quickly pulled his eyes away from her and just in time to see the handsome man had leapt from the top of the ledge and had unsheathed a half-step white divine sword in mid-air.

    "Is he going to leap from this distance?" Yuan Ji was startled at his lightless profound skill.

    All of a sudden this Yun''Er was suddenly upon him as he seemed to have elerated in mid-air.

    Yuan Ji was startled as he shouted, "Seventh realm expert!"

    The profound aura of this new enemy clearly marked him as a seventh realm expert and Yuan Ji was immediately in his best form of concentration; he did not dare to be careless!

    Ling Feiyue was also rmed but she was soon smiling, "I''m so big mouth, Heh."

    She was not anxious. After all, she was a great saintess with formidable divine skills. There was nothing for her to be panic about.

    She immediately shed her fan at the attacker.

    The afterimages of this attacker''s sword were shing with tremendous profound force that it broke Ling Feiyue''s fan and pushed back Yuan Ji in the same instant, startling them.

    Ling Feiyue was also startled as she unsheathed her heaven-step fan which quickly metamorphed into a divine sword. "He has an unusual strong profound strength¡­"

    The sword strokes of this Yun''Er were also extremely fast.

    It was so extremely fast that Yuan Ji was now switching to his right hand to fend off his strokes.<sub> </sub>

    Even Ling Feiyue was using now disying her profound aura to empower her sword strokes with additional profound power.

    In several blinks of an eye, more than a hundred strokes were exchanged furiously as their surroundings began to implode the ground with the exchange of their profound strength.

    Ling Feiyue''s profound aura had suddenly expanded in an outburst of profound power as she expanded her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force as she forced the attacker back.

    But to her surprise, the attacker was just pushed back only a few steps before he had stabilized himself,pletely unaffected by the profound power of her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force and even his half-step divine sword had be a heaven-step divine sword.

    Ling Feiyue and Yuan Ji were startled that the attacker''s sword would suddenly upgrade itself in the middle of the battle!

    But Yuan Ji had immediately discovered an opening when the attacker''s sword was upgrading itself. So he quickly mustered the 7th Level of his Major Heavens Sword as he unleashed three sword energies waves onto the ground.

    But this time instead of three sword energies waves, his sword energies waves had split into two smaller waves upon hitting the ground and it had be two high velocity projectiles. All in all there were six flying fluttering sword energies that flew at high flying velocity at the attacker.

    Ling Feiyue was startled when she saw his secret technique as she muttered silently, "This sword technique is totally different when we are dueling with each other. So he is really hiding this sword technique as his trump card."

    The six flying sword energies were faster than any sword energies that Ling Feiyue had ever seen. Even if the target was not ripped apart by the sword energies immediately, it would be able to wound him seriously.

    But the attacker suddenly had two heaven step divine swords in his hands as he swept all the sword energies clean.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Two heaven-step divine swords¡­

    The attacker was also gasping, "A high level sword energies practitioner."

    He quickly swung his two swords at Yuan Ji and two afterimages of his sword flew out and struck Yuan Ji''s sword.

    Although Yuan Ji had raised his sword arm to parry the two iing sword energies but he was still sent flying backward!

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue shouted after him before she furiously swung her sword at the attacker.

    But the attacker used the same technique on her to send her scurrying seven steps backward with his two phantom sword energies which were an exact copy of his divine sword. But luckily for her, she was protected by her profound aura which neutralized the sword energies.

    Yuan Ji coughed out a mouthful of golden blood as he stared nkly at the attacker, "His sword energies are in the perfect sword energies form¡­"

    Perfect sword energies carried the afterimages of the swords that it was imbued with unlike the usual sword energies which were just a burst of profound energies.

    His 8th Level Major Heavens Sword also contained a special technique for solidifying sword energies into a perfect sword energies form but he doubted that it would be as clearly visible as this attacker.

    Ling Feiyue now knew the severity of the situation and she had quickly regrouped with Yuan Ji.

    "This guy has two heaven-step divine swords. We need to put in all our best now."

    Yuan Ji whispered to her, "I''m already using all my best. You mean you haven''t?"

    The attacker had also realized that he was dealing with two seventh realm experts now and he knew that Ling Feiyue''s profound aura seemed to be a powerful profound art.

    Therefore with a wave of his wave he had conjured eight more heaven-step divine swords which hovered around him.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were startled. They had never seen anyone with ten divine swords before!

    Moreover it was not just ten ordinary divine swords but ten heaven-step divine swords!

    "Don''t panic." Yuan Ji said coolly. "He can''t use all ten divine swords at the same time. It is more of a psychology impact. Even if he can use it, he will also be draining his profound strength very fast."

    All of a sudden the afterimages of the ten half-step divine swords were flying and piercing them with their sword energies form which exploded furiously upon impact.

    Ling Feiyue quickly used her body to shield Yuan Ji but all of a sudden she was shoved aside by Yuan Ji as he took three sword energies as direct impact.

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue coughed out weakly as she grabbed Yuan Ji away from the sword energies strafing.

    <o>,m Yuan Ji turned weakly to look at the attacker who was looking just as fresh as ever.</o>

    He muttered in disbelief, "This is too exaggerating. That guy can fight the two of us so casually and he isn''t even using his full strength yet."

    "Run. I can still hold him back for a while. Once hispanions join in the fight, we will all die here today." He secretly whispered to Ling Feiyue.

    Ling Feiyue knew that he had taken the three sword energies impact for her because he wanted to help her to conserve her profound strength so that she would be able to escape from here.

    The attacker muttered, "I''m sorry. This is a trial and the two of you are worth a 200 merit points or more. Now if you don''t mind letting mypanions to kill you painlessly¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly as he stood up weakly, "Actually I do mind but our fight isn''t over yet."

    "When I start the fight, I want you to run as quickly as possible. Don''t worry, this is a trial. I won''t die as long as he doesn''t aim for my heart." He whispered to Ling Feiyue.

    Ling Feiyue hummed quietly, "I refuse to listen to you. It is just our bad luck to meet such a strong opponent on this level."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Actually it more like we are unlucky to meet someone who is this rich to afford ten heaven-step divine swords."

    The six beautiful veiled maidens had now shed next to the tall and handsome cultivator.

    The veiled maiden in ck that had spoken earlier was now saying to him, "Yun''Er, it seems that we have met a couple here. They''re pretty strong. Why don''t we let them off? They seem pretty much in love. It will be such a waste for them to perish here today, don''t you think so?"

    Yun''Er frowned lightly, "But today is thest day of the trial and we don''t have enough merit points yet."

    "Don''t worry, we are only here for the fun. Moreover we still got the time."

    The beautiful veiled maiden in ck who was speaking turned to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue with a delightful look as she said to them, "I''m Fan Yuqing. So what is your name?"

    "Li Yuan."

    "Ling Feiyang."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue said at the same time. They did not report their true names as they were still wary of them.

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes as she giggled, "Please pardon us for attacking you earlier. We need the merit points too. This is Lu Qingyun. His sword art is really good. Behind me are my sisters Feng Minyue, Xuan Danfeng, Tang Xuefeng, Qian Jingjing and Yue Lingxi."

    Lu Qingyun bowed with his hands politely to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue, "I hope that you are not offended. I am just eager to get the merit points toplete the trial here¡­"

    Fan Yuqing interrupted him with a soft chuckle, "We should have already gone to the next level if it isn''t for you dying us by going off to search for your spirit nts."

    Yuan Ji asked cautiously as he interrupted them, "Why did you spare us?"

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes before giggling softly, "Because I saw that this maiden here who is disguising as a man tries to shield you and you are also trying to shield her. I am just touched, that''s all."

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she muttered, "What sharp eyes you got."

    Fan Yuqing chuckled, "I''ve used my Seventh Heaven Sense to discern your aura. You can''t hide your gender aura from me."

    Yuan Ji was now looking at Lu Qingyun as he said, "This Brother Lu here, your sword art is really so remarkable. I have never seen anyone as good as you."

    Lu Qingyun smiled weakly, "I am not as good as you think I am."

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly. If he was not good as he had imed then his own sword art must be crap.

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously as she looked at them, "I wonder where you''re from? I have never heard of you before."

    She was rmed secretly because these golden celestials had an unsettling strong aura and she was curious to know where they were from.

    Lu Qingyun replied, "We are cultivators from the Nine Celestial Fraternity and we''re just here to experience the trials of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

 Chapter 58 The Slaughter Trial (2)

    The Nine Celestial Fraternity was named as such because nine powerful celestial patriarch orthodox ns ruled over the hundreds and thousands of celestial ns in its divine realm.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were surprised that they were from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. It was because although the Nine Celestial Fraternity had bordered the Deste Celestial Fraternity but the cultivators from both fraternities had rarely ever met except when they were taking the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth Trial where cultivators from all over the Celestial Realm would then encounter each other and the encounter was often unpleasant.

    Moreover in order to reach the Deste Celestial Fraternity, a vast desert to the World End''s Mountains and the equally treacherous Moon Demon Forest had to be traversed. Also the cultivators from the Nine Celestial Fraternity would then emerge in the unfriendly territory of the unorthodox fraternity.

    But this small group of seven was able to make it through to the Deste Celestial Fraternity from the Nine Celestial Fraternity therefore all of them must have some extraordinary abilities.

    Or maybe they were the lucky survivors of a big group.

    Yuan Ji said weakly to Lu Qingyun, "Brother Lu, your sword energies art seems to have reached the acme of perfection. It is my honor to meet a Sword Saint from the Nine Celestial Fraternity here."

    Lu Qingyun sighed softly, "I''m actually not any Sword Saint."

    But he quickly said, "Let me examine your internal injuries."

    Before Yuan Ji could react, Lu Qingyun had struck him on his chest three times and three burst of sword energies that were struck in his body had flown out.

    Yuan Ji coughed out a bout of bad blood which was a condensation of his internal blood energies and his body was feeling light again.

    He had not really expected his opponent would help him to purge the sword energies out of him.

    Yuan Ji politely said, "Thank you for your aid. If I were to purge it myself, it won''t be easy."

    Even if Ling Feiyue were to help him, it would not be easy because this Lu Qingyun''s sword energies were stronger than their profound strength. Although Ling Feiyue''s profound strength was also great but thebine profound power of Lu Qingyun''s profound strength and his divine sword was still not easy for Ling Feiyue''s profound strength to purge and she would end up expending a great deal of her profound strength.

    All of a sudden Lu Qingyun said, "Brother Li Yuan, you have been to the secret cultivation hall on the second level of the trial?"

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were both startled that he knew about the secret cultivation hall.

    But since this Lu Qingyun did not have any bad intention toward them, Yuan Ji replied. "Indeed we have. How did you know?"

    Ling Feiyue had also asked curiously, "Yes, how did you know?"

    Lu Qingyun replied with a gentle smile, "When I''ve purged your sword energies afflictions, I can sense my profound aura in your body."

    "Your profound aura?!" Yuan Ji could not understand how Lu Qingyun''s profound aura could have got into his body.

    Even Ling Feiyue looked a little confused.

    Lu Qingyun smiled awkwardly before he exined, "This is a little difficult to exin¡­"

    All of a sudden Fan Yuqing had interrupted with a soft chuckle, "He had cheated by using his profound strength to raise the rewards of the second level so that the rewards will be max out."

    "It is all thanks to your instigation and you can evenugh. Please don''t do it again. The trial almost drained all his profound strength. Luckily it is only the second level and this trial isn''t exactly a major trial. Or next time don''t expect me to save him." The veiled maiden by the name of Yue Lingxi said unhappily.

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes and wasughing, "Luckily the rewards are unexpectedly good."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he stared at Lu Qingyun, "You can affect the rarity of the rewards?!"

    No wonder the cultivation methods in the secret cultivation hall seemed unusually good and were allpleted copies rather than fragments. Moreover there were so many divine and supreme profound arts that it seemed quite unusual.

    Lu Qingyun nodded as he smiled bitterly, "But I won''t do it again. It seems that the trial has evolved a defense against me after I had done it only once. The next attempt won''t be so easy."

    Although Lu Qingyun had never admitted it but saying so was as good as admitting it.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were truly stunned.

    Fan Yuqing chuckled, "No more cheating Yun''Er."

    Yuan Ji pondered for a quick while before he said to Lu Qingyun, "Why don''t weplete this trial together? I have a n for us all to get enough of the merit points for the next trial level."

    Lu Qingyun said as he turned to look at his group, "This¡­"

    Fan Yuqing interrupted immediately, "So what is the n?"

    -

    -

    -

    There was a beautiful pavilion by theke that was surrounded by dense woods and mountains.

    And in front of the pavilion were two portals, one green and one blue.

    A big group of cultivators had camped by the portals and they were killing all the cultivators that had dared to approach the portals.

    This group of cultivators was led by Saint Mo Xingku of the Flying Daggers Divine Sect and his allies, which consisted of nearly a hundred cultivators and consisted of eight other golden celestials.

    Although there were three hundred golden celestials and two thousand cultivators that were scattered all around theke and the mountains, none dare to approach the portal.

    It was because Saint Xingku was killing all the other cultivators that had dared to approach the two portals and he was really killing the cultivators by aiming their hearts.

    That was why all the cultivators were now staying in hiding and did not dare to approach them. Many of the cultivators in hiding were now sighing at the passage of time that had passed.

    The truly strong cultivators and groups had already entered through the portals. Although there were many cultivators all around but no single group could take out the Flying Divine Sect and Saint Mo Xingku.

    They could onlyment why they were so unlucky to be in the same level trial as the Flying Dagger Divine Sect.

    Saint Mo Xingku was not interested in the trial and instead he was more interested in killing as many cultivators as possible.

    He was jeering loudly with his profound strength now, "The portals are right here and time is short. Why are you all still in hiding? Why don''t youe out and fight us?"

    But no one responded to his taunts because that would mean exposing their covers to Saint Mo Xingku and to the other cultivators who were in hiding.

    All of a sudden there were a group of nine golden celestials that had appeared from view and they were approaching the portals.

    This group consisted of three men and six veiled maidens.

    Saint Mo Xingku wasughing, "We actually have some courageous cultivators forpany now."

    Immediately a hundred swords were now pointing at the nine golden celestial celestials that were approaching.

    The three men were actually Yuan Ji, Lu Qingyun and Ling Feiyue while the veiled maidens looked ''weak'' and ''pathetic''.<sub> </sub>

    Therefore in the eyes of Saint Mo Xingku and his group, there were actually only three worthy opponents.

    Saint Mo Xingku immediately said, "Kill them. Make sure that you aimed at their hearts. As for the maidens, leave them alone first until I can have some fun with them."

    When he had said that, eight golden celestials and a hundred cultivators had immediately charged at Yuan Ji, Lu Qingyun and Ling Feiyue.

    Yuan Ji had immediately raised his divine sword as he ''killed'' two cultivators. There were two back stripes that had appeared on his hand, indicating that he had just received 20 merit points.

    These cultivators were surrounding Yuan Ji as they attempted to wear him off with their wolf pack tactics. It did not matter if their opponent was a saint level opponent or not. It was because even a saint cultivator may not be able to deal with so many swords and so many powerful profound arts that were unleashing at the same time.

    But to the astonishment of the one hundred cultivators, something miraculous seemed to be happening.

    With every blink of an eye, a cultivator had fallen and every five blinks of an eye, a golden celestial was knocked back.

    Except for Yuan Ji, Lu Qingyun and Ling Feiyue were disying their profound strength to the sixth realm level only.

    A cultivator with two heaven-step divine sword was at the foremost charge as he shed his swords, felling one cultivator after one another.

    None of the cultivators had the profound strength to block his sword and was instantly crushed.

    Even Saint Mo Xingku was startled that there was such a capable fighter around.

    Therefore he had brandished his half-step divine sabre as he charged into the battle fray.

    But all of a sudden he was intercepted by Yuan Ji who said coldly, "Your opponent is me. Although this is a trial but you have recklessly taken their lives without showing any mercy."

    Saint Mo Xingkuughed coldly, "I wonder who this brave one is. So it is Li Yuan. You are with that Li Ye. You have saved me the trouble of looking for you."

    After he had said that, he had immediately lifted his sabre with both hands. "This is my Snow Leopard Blood Sabre. Consider this your honor to die under my divine sabre. This is a profound technique of my Blood Snow Sabre Technique."

    With that a powerful profound force had resonated from his divine sabre as it flew toward at the charging Yuan Ji!

    Yuan Ji gasped softly as he swung his sword with a wave of his sword energies andpletely dissipated the profound force of the iing Blood Snow Sabre Technique.

    Although the Blood Snow Sabre Technique was a powerful profound power art but any high level sword energies practitioner was able to dissipate it as sword energies were the nemesis of profound power arts and could easily dissipate the concentrated profound power at the point of contact.

    Saint Mo Xingku was startled that Yuan Ji was able to dismantle his profound power art so easily. "A high level sword energies practitioner? Interesting."

    And the two of them were already exchanging dozens of strokes in a blink of an eye as they engaged in a melee fight.

    "You are also a seventh realm expert?" Mo Xingku was frowning lightly at the profound strength that was being disyed by Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji did not reply him because he was trying focused on defeating Mo Xingku but he was secretly rmed that Mo Xingku''s profound strength was above him. It must be due to a power profound art that he was practicing.

    After exchanging two hundred strokes with Mo Xingku, Yuan Ji had been shed five times while Mo Xingku had been shed ten times. However Yuan Ji''s injuries were heavier than Mo Xingku while the shes that he had given to Mo Xingku were almost negligent.

    Even though Mo Xingku was still as cocky as ever but he was secretly rmed that a third of his group had fallen and the opponents were only two!

    All of a sudden he had noticed that the two men were not exactly killing his group anymore but were pushing the wounded and the injured to the back for the six veiled maidens to ughter for merit points!

    When he saw that, he was so enraged that he was shouting as he tried to ignore Yuan Ji to fight the two opponents. "Useless things! You can''t even handle two opponents."

    Yuan Ji swung his left hand and his divine sword had shed in front of Mo Xingku as he grinned, "Our fight isn''t over yet. So where are you going?"

    Mo Xingku smirked, "You are courting your own death. Your friends will be dead in no time even if I don''t step in to aid my group."

    Although he had said that, he was perplexed in secret. It was because there were eight golden celestials and more than a hundred cultivators that were fighting against only two opponents and yet these two opponents were still casually fending off their attacks.

    Fan Yuqing knew that there were more than two thousand cultivators that were watching the group fight in the shadows of the vicinity.

    So she purposely shouted out loud, "It seems that the Flying Dagger Divine Sect is just so and so. This is just a perfect opportunity for everyone to storm the two portals together."

    When the cultivators that were in hiding saw that the Flying Dagger Divine Sect could not even settle the three fighting intruders, their courage was immediately aroused.

    Almost immediately more than two thousand cultivators were all making a beeline for the two portals!

    In no time the entire vicinity had turned into a raging battle with no distinction of friends or enemies as everyone began to fight against one another for merit points.

    Merit points were flying all over the ce now as the cultivators were now ughtering one another as they moved to the portals.

    Mo Xingku was shouting furious, "Hold your lines and don''t let the cultivators reach the portal¡­"

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue had shed behind him as she delivered a tremendous palm force on his back which immediately caused him to cough out a bout of blood.

    He was immediately startled because this palm force had the profound strength of a great saint!

    Yuan Ji immediately shed his sword to his right hand and had pierced Mo Xingku''s heart as he said coldly, "Usually I don''t kill anyone in the trial but I think you deserve to die."

    Mo Xingku could not believe that his golden body could be prated through so easily even though he knew that his opponent had a earth-step divine sword.

    It was like his opponent''s profound strength had suddenly increased by a huge leap all of a sudden.

    Yuan Ji grinned to Ling Feiyue, "What takes you so long to get your 100 merit points?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "It is hard to do the math while fighting. I have the unenviable task of sending the weaker cultivators to the back for Fan Yuqing and her group."

    Yuan Ji asked, "So everyone got the 100 merit points now?"

    Ling Feiyue nodded.

    Yuan Ji shouted over to Lu Qingyun, "Brother Lu, thank you for your aid and it is our honor to meet such friends as you. We will be entering to the next level now. See youter if we are lucky to meet or in the same trial level as you."

    Lu Qingyun smiled as he said, "Thank you as well. Hope to see you soon if possible."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Hope you can get a fruitful bounty."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue returned a quick bow before they quickly disappeared into the blue portal that led to the next level.

    After they were gone, Fan Yuqing said to her group. "Now for the real fun to begin. Yun''Er, ughter them all for their merit points but don''t kill them. We will watch over the portals. Now it is our turn to camp in this ce."

    Lu Qingyun had suddenly disyed his profound strength to the seventh level and suddenly two of the golden celestials of the Flying Dagger Divine Sect were ''killed'' instantly.

    Fan Yuqing chuckled to her sisters, "Do you think that we can get 10 000 merit points for my Yun''Er? This isn''t considered to be cheating right?"

 Chapter 59 The Treacherous Fourth Trial (1)

    As soon as Yuan Ji had stepped into the fourth level of the trial, a beam of light had flown from the heavens and he had caught hold of it.

    It was a blue crystal.

    "Crystal Celestium?" Yuan Ji was startled.

    The reason why he was startled was because this Crystal Celestium could improve the profound power of a weapon by 10% if it was socketed in the hilt.

    It was indeed a rare profound treasure!

    Ling Feiyue got only a fourth rank profound pill and she looked a little disappointed at her reward. She was quite startled by Yuan Ji''s reward as she cast an enviable look. "How many merit points did you have in order to get this reward?"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "More than 1000 merit points."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "That is a lot¡­"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "That Mo Xingku seems to have killed quite a lot of cultivators. Almost all my merit points hade from him."

    Ling Feiyue smiled at his remark but she was soon saying solemnly, "What do you think of that earlier group? Our temporary allies earlier?"

    Yuan Ji pondered for a while before he said, "That Lu Qingyun isn''t the strongest or the leader. Fan Yuqing appears to be their group leader and she is the one that is issuing the orders to her group."

    Ling Feiyue nodded before saying, "I think that she may be a great saintess even though she didn''t disy her profound skills. Her steps are extremely light."

    "I think so too. And that Yue Lingxi as well." Yuan Ji added with a soft sigh.

    "But for some unknown reasons, they are only interested in letting Lu Qingyun fight their battles for them and they barely lift a finger." Ling Feiyue said.

    Then she added, "When they do lift a finger, their swords are all extremely swift. All the cultivators that I had tossed to them were all killed in a single hit. I can only say that their group is mostly seventh realm saintesses."

    Yuan Ji said quietly, "They are not even rmed when they are being surrounded by thousands of cultivators just now. It is as though they have the confidence to settle them even without Lu Qingyun to defend them."

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "Mmm, Fan Yuqing. I''ll remember her."

    Yuan Jiughed, "So you''ve already determined that she is the most dangerous?"

    Ling Feiyue slowly nodded, "She is definitely the strongest opponent among the seven. Even that Yue Lingxi also gives me a sense of unease. You must know that I am a great saintess now and very few opponents will give me a sense of unease. Not even Xue Qianxue."

    "Actually I am more curious in knowing how that Lu Qingyun managed to influence the rewards." Yuan Jiughed jovially.

    Ling Feiyue scoffed at him silently when she had heard his remarks.

    Yuan Ji quickly said, "So where are we now?"

    He saw that they were in a misty valley now and like the previous trials, there was a ck stele just in front of them.

    Ling Feiyueughed softly, "We just have to touch this stele and we will know the details of the trial very soon."

    "Thank you." Yuan Ji said all of a sudden.

    "Why are you thanking me all of a sudden? It''s not as though you do not know that you have to touch the stele." Ling Feiyue smiled as she stole a shy nce at him.

    Yuan Ji sighed softly before saying, "Thank you for aiding me against Mo Xingku. Without your sudden attack, I may not be able to bypass his profound defense."

    He knew that the earlier sudden attack by Ling Feiyue had weakened Mo Xingku''s profound aura hence he was able to make use of the opportunity to disy his killing stroke.<sub> </sub>

    "Oh that? It is really nothing at all." Ling Feiyue returned him a sentimental look before saying shyly. "We are on the same side so we ought to help each other. Let''s see what the trial for this level holds for us first, alright?"

    Yuan Ji nodded as he returned a reluctant look at her, "Alright."

    In the next instant, he was upon the ck stele with Ling Feiyue.

    As he reached out to touch the ck stele, he had identally touched the hand of Ling Feiyue who gasped softly at his touch.

    "I ask you to touch the stele and you have touched my hand?" Ling Feiyue said with a fluster look.

    Yuan Ji replied awkwardly, "This is an ident."

    Ling Feiyue hummed softly before she ced her hand firmly on the stele.

    She was soon followed by Yuan Ji who was grinning at her and the two of them were just staring nkly at each other.

    Yuan Ji was secretly sighing, "Maybe the maiden that I love the most is actually Ling Feiyue and not Xia Jiajia. Why didn''t I get to know her better a hundred years ago instead of threatening her because I had thought that she was my hatred love rival?"

    Ling Feiyue was actually not upset with him for touching her hand. After all, he had already kissed her in the secret cultivation hall. She was actually only teasing him and was trying to make it a little harder for him to get fresh with her.

    "This trial¡­." Yuan Ji was soon frowning lightly.

    Ling Feiyue said, "We just need to find the portal to the next trial level. It sounds easy?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin before saying, "Maybe it is a little too easy for a level four trial, right?"

    Ling Feiyue had a quick giggle, "Why? You are afraid of meeting the deste beasts along the way?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am actually reluctant to fight a seventh rank deste beast along the way. But with you around, I''m not afraid."

    Ling Feiyue waved her fan, "Are you a man? You actually want to hide behind my skirt?"

    "Not when someone here is two tiers above me and is a great saintess." Yuan Jiughed jovially.

    "I''m not going to be your protector. So all the best to you." Ling Feiyue waved her fan and she had already marched off.

    "Where are you going?" Yuan Ji asked after her.

    "That is none of your business." Ling Feiyue said without turning back. "And don''t you dare to follow me."

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders as he walked behind her.

    Ling Feiyue paused in her tracks and had suddenly turned around to rebuke him, "Did I just warn you not to follow me?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "But there is only one path currently. Surely you don''t expect me to fly over the mountains?"

    "You''ve better take the other path once we havee to a crossroad." Ling Feiyue warned him with a gentle rebuke before she continued on her way.

    "I''ve thought that someone had just said that we are on the same side and we ought to help each other?" Yuan Ji chuckled behind her.

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, ignoring him as she increased her walking pace.

    Yuan Ji was smiling and was muttering, "I am blind to the other paths. The only path that I will be taking is the path that you are taking."

 Chapter 60 The Treacherous Fourth Trial (2)

    It took Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue more than a day to finally walk out of the misty valley to the other side of the mountains.

    Along the way, they had encountered several fifth rank deste beasts and even a single sixth rank primordial ss deste beast. Luckily for them, the encounters had ended quickly.

    "Weird." Yuan Ji said to Ling Feiyue. "We didn''t see any cultivators along the way?"

    Ling Feiyue answered, "This is indeed a little strange."

    With their lightless profound art, they were moving faster than the majority of the trial cultivators. Moreover they could move without rest for several days and they could cover a greater pace than any cultivators that were below the fifth realm level.

    At the same time the misty valley was fraught with deste beasts and the lower level cultivators would not be able to move hastily as they needed to move cautiously.

    And if they had encountered a battle, they would need time to recuperate and to dress their wounds. Even their injuries would slow them down.

    Yuan Ji was muttering, "At most they only got seven days head start on us. Moreover there should be a dozen of the same level three trials that are opened at the same time so there should be a constant stream of cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "You''re saying that although we have covered three days of walk but we have yet to see a single cultivator?"

    Yuan Ji nodded lightly as he looked at his surroundings again, "Unless of course there is more than one path that is avable."

    "I''m afraid that this must be the only conclusion." Ling Feiyue concluded gently.

    All of a sudden they saw fire in the mountains ahead.

    "Hmm, someone is there?" Yuan Ji said.

    "Just when we thought that there is no one else. Let''s go and take a look then." Ling Feiyue immediately said.

    With that, they had sped toward the source of the mountains.

    When they had reached the location of the fire, they found out that it was actually several huge bonfires with hundreds of cultivators around in a boot camp.

    They were quite astonished to find so many cultivators around.

    When they had entered the boot camp, they did not attract too much of an attention as they were not the only golden celestials that were around.

    It seemed that the cultivators had established a camp here.

    Yuan Ji quickly found a lone cultivator as he greeted him, "Li Yuan here. This is mypanion Ling Feiyang. We have just arrived here. May I know why there are so many cultivators in this ce? Shouldn''t they be moving toward the portals of the fourth level trial?"

    "Great Celestials. Mu Chen here." The cultivator returned a friendly greet. "You aren''t the first group to ask me."

    Mu Chen sighed softly, "The majority of us are actually struck in this ce and that is why we are here."

    "Oh?" Yuan Ji was curious.

    Mu Chen exined, "You have better waited until daybreak and you will get your answers. In front of us is a valley with two routes. One route will lead to the Thunder Peaks where there are constant lightning storms. The other route is less dangerous but is guarded by an epic seventh rank deste beast. If we cannot defeat that seventh rank deste beast, we can''t hope to reach the end of this trial."

    Then he pointed at the cultivators in the camp, "Half of them have actually met with defeats and everyone is now regrouping to fight the epic deste beast again in another three days."

    He sighed softly, "We are just back from a fight only yesterday and a third of us did not make it back. Now the survivors are recuperating and nursing their wounds. If the two Great Celestials will be able to join us in three days'' time, we will have a greater chance of sess."

    Yuan Ji thanked him, "We will definitely consider. After all an epic seventh rank deste beast is beyond the two of us to handle."

    After thanking him, Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue walked off together.

    They soon found a spot in the camp to sit down together to discuss their next course of action.

    Yuan Ji turned to look at her, "So what do you think?"

    Ling Feiyue was aware that Yuan Ji was now looking at her so she averted her eyes, "Can you sit a little further from me? We are two ''men''. Don''t sit so close to me."

    Yuan Jiughed softly, "Precisely because we are two men and that is why I am able to sit so close to you."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "You are definitely not a cultivator of the heart and is more like a street rascal."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "In front of the Goddess Ling Feiyue, I am definitely a rascal¡­"

    "Feiyang!" Ling Feiyue whispered softly. "Don''t say out my name, badass rascal."

    Yuan Jiughed, "So what do you think of this?" In the end, he did not even bulge from his sitting position and he was still as close as ever to her.

    Ling Feiyue pondered for a while before she said, "It seems that one is a lightning trial while the other is an epic deste beast trial. Either one is actually easy so don''t be fooled. In the past, I didn''t manage to get past the fourth trial to the fifth trial."

    Yuan Ji asked her, "So what is this lightning trial?"

    "For the lightning trial, we need to go through the lightning zone. If we are unlucky then we will be struck by the lightning and may perish. It will actually depend on our luck whether we can avoid the lightning."

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly, "Actually both trials require luck. The epic deste beast won''t be easy at all."

    "Indeed but it is the most favored trial to ovee the fourth trial. It is because everyone expects the others to die in their stead. Therefore everyone is praying that the deste beast won''t be targeting them. But the odds of getting kill by the epic deste beast are actually much higher than the lightning."

    Yuan Ji nodded, "Moreover if we are struck by the lightning, we may still exit the trial intact. But if we are trampled or eaten up by the deste beast then we may very well end up dead permanently."

    "So you have decided on the lightning trial?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Yuan Ji nodded, "We have a higher odd of survival with the lightning trial actually."

    He heaved a soft sigh as he looked at her, "Are you alright if we take the lightning trial?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "Why not?"

    "You are not afraid?" Yuan Ji asked. "The lightning can be terrifying and our hearts may not be able to take it. I can teach you my sect heart intricate form for controlling your heart beat to resist the lightning."

    "No need." Ling Feiyue smiled gently. "I will be alright."

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly, "You have a cheat? What do you mean?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Have you forgotten that I had to ovee the lightning tribtion in order to be a great saintess? This lightning trial is actually far weaker than the lightning tribtion."

    Yuan Ji was now frowning unhappily, "I really forget about that. So that means that I will be the only one that will be in danger?"

    Ling Feiyue pped him lightly on his cheek as sheughed softly, "That''s right. So watch out for yourself and don''t get strike by the lightning. I''m not watching over you."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    "I have decided to change my mind now and go for the epic deste beast trial." Yuan Ji frowned.

    "Fine and I will be going for the lightning trial. You have better don''t follow me this time or you will be struck by lightning." Ling Feiyue paused briefly before adding with a soft chuckle, "I have heard that only bad guys will get struck by lightning. I wonder if it is true for you?"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "If you got struck by lightning then you must be a badass viiness."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "I''m from the unorthodox sect so it doesn''t matter for me because the lightning will only strike the hypocrites."

    "You sound like you are quite eager to see how the lightning is going to strike me dead." Yuan Ji frowned unhappily.

    "You''re not my future lord, so why not?" Ling Feiyue chuckled.

    "If I am dead then I won''t be your future lord." Yuan Ji muttered.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was suddenly quiet as he remembered that he would surely be dead in less than four months'' time. Because of this, Ling Feiyue and he would never truly be able to be together.

    He did not want to get her involved in his mess and he was also bent on rescuing Xue Qianxue. Although he knew that she had a formidable background but he did not want to make her an enemy of the orthodox fraternity or the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Therefore he had decided to leave her after the trials had ended.

    In his heart, she was not an unorthodox cultivator but a dear friend now. Although his decision may be cruel and even be ungrateful but that was the best course for her sake.

    "Are you angry?" Ling Feiyue asked him upon seeing his quiet countenance.

    Yuan Ji returned a forceful smile, "No. I was just thinking about something."

    Ling Feiyue returned him a dreamy look¡­

    One Hundred Years ago¡­

    The Spirit Blue Moon Sect;

    Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue was the sectarian leader of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, one of the five most powerful unorthodox sects.

    Right now she was in the audience hall where several of her elders were in full indignant over a poem that had been spreading like wildfire and they were reporting it with plenty of furious looks on them.

    ? "This Ji Yuan is too much!"

    "He is courting his own death!"

    "He dares to stroke our dark mistress with his beard?"

    "It is not his beard! It is his hands!"

    "Are the orthodox cultivators thinking that our Spirit Blue Moon Sect is a sect that they can trample upon anytime when and then?"

    "We ought to teach him a lesson."

    Ling Feiyue said gently, "Forget it. It is only a harmless poem."

    "How can we let it rest in this manner? Now the entire fraternity is talking about it!"

    "They are mocking our Dark Mistress now!"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is also in the poem. If she is alright with it, why can''t I be alright with it? Moreover¡­"

    She paused for a little while, "I do have the intention to meet him soon."

    The elders: ???

    "Our Dark Mistress is going to meet him soon?"

    "But why?"

    Ling Feiyue replied gently, "Naturally I will meet him to teach him a lesson but I will be using another alias."

    When the elders heard her, they were quite relieved.

    "Then may our Dark Mistress be careful."

    "This guy is also a Sword Saint and he isn''t weak¡­"

    "Cripple his cultivation core!"

    Ling Feiyue smiled to her elders, "I will be having some fun with him with a new friend of mine."

    She was actually thinking, "Ji Yuan. Great Poet Ji Yuan. Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Which is the real you? I will like to meet you in person¡­"

    "My uncle before he had passed away, once told me that Ji Yuan has the potential to be one of the three top Sword Saints and he had warned me to be wary of him¡­"

    Her uncle had said to her, "He did not have any formidable weapons or cultivation profound arts. But he is able to use the most ordinary strokes and transform it into the most remarkable stroke. There exists a type of person, if you pushed him to a corner then his abilities will suddenly surge because he will then treat you as a stronger foe to ovee. Ji Yuan is such a person. I''m afraid that he has already attained the state of divinity of meeting the strong and bing stronger. Never forget that he is a Sword Saint with an indomitable will."

    Then her uncle dropped a revtion to her, "He had assassinated the leader of the ck Hand Guild after being hunted for three years. The tables had beenpletely turned by him."

    She had questioned her uncle on the ounts as she found it unbelievable.

    Her uncle had replied with a jovialughter, "I have witnessed it myself. Mark my words! If there is anyone that is worthy of my niece then it must be him!"

    "Hmph! He is an orthodox cultivator. I don''t have eyes for him." She had replied back then.

    "Orthodox or unorthodox cultivator, does it really matter?" Her uncle retorted.

    Although her uncle hadter perished in a difficult trial, his words had continued to haunt Ling Feiyue.

    It was because her beloved uncle had aided her in many insights and in her heart, she had regarded her uncle as closely as her deceased father.

    Back to the present¡­

    "Ji Yuan¡­you are exactly what my uncle had described." Ling Feiyue muttered with a dreamy look in her eyes.

    Ji Yuan: ???

 Chapter 61 The Treacherous Fourth Trial (3)

    The mountains to the left had dark thunderstorms shing above it.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue knew that it was the lightning trial.

    As for the mountains to the right, there were thunderous roars and they knew that powerful deste beastsy within those mountains.

    Therefore they headed left toward the heavy dark clouds.

    Ling Feiyueughed merrily, "You''re following me. Why are you following me?"

    Yuan Ji mimicked her, "That is my business and none of your business."

    "Copycat!" Ling Feiyue pretended to be annoyed and marched off.

    Yuan Jiughed as he followed her.

    They had walked for half a day into the mountains before they could see lightning shing from the heavens.

    Multiple streaks of lightning in the dark heavens above could be seen before it shed down with a thunderous impact on the sides of the mountains, causing a spark of fire and smog to lit up across the mountain cliffs.

    In front of them was a huge stone monument with the words carved onto it; Thunder Peaks.

    There were also small drizzles that could be seen but Ling Feiyue''s invisible profound aura had deflected the rain drops with ease.

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "Now we have to make a run with our lightless profound art through the mountains and pray that the lightning will not hit us. Chances are, we may have to take a few hits. If you are hit by a lightning and survive it, quickly roll to the side to take shelter in the mountains. When you have recovered your profound strength, move on again."

    Then she lowered her nces, "I¡­I will look out for you. This trial is a little hard. I won''t let you die in this ce."

    "I thought that someone says she won''t bother about it if I were to follow her." Yuan Ji chuckled.

    He knew that Ling Feiyue had plenty of experiences with the lightning trials from the way that she had advised him.

    But he said, "Actually it is a bad mistake to try to outrun the lightning."

    Ling Feiyue gave him a perplexed look, "What do you mean?"

    He exined, "We can never truly outrun the lightning. I estimate that we will be hit a couple of times even if we do our best."

    Ling Feiyue nodded. This was the truth. That was why she had offered to help Yuan Ji. Even she could not hope that she would be able to evade all the lightning strikes.

    "It is because the lightning is attracted to our profound strength. Whether we are tanking it with our profound power or using our lightless profound art, we have to use our profound strength."

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "The lightning is attracted to our profound strength? How do you know?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as heughed, "The lightning is not only attracted to our profound strength but also the metals, especially our swords. How do I know? I test it by letting the lightning strike me a few times."

    Ling Feiyue shook her head with a gentle smile, "I don''t believe."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I don''t believe it either until I have tested it a few times. Let me show you." With that he had imbued his divine sword with his sword energies.

    "The reason why cultivators prefer to use swords and sabres are because it is easier to channel profound strength as the metallic surface flows well with our profound energies."

    All of a sudden there was a sh in the heavens above and Yuan Ji had suddenly thrown his divine sword high up above him; it sped high up aided by the sword energies that were imbued in it as it defied the gravity.

    In less than three blinks of an eyeter, there was a thunderous booming sound as the flying divine sword was struck with a brilliant burst of light by a furious lightning bolt.

    The shockwaves of the impact was so fierce that Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were forced to lean against the cliffs!

    Ling Feiyue covered her mouth with her fingers as she gasped, "This is really true?"

    She was staring in disbelief at Yuan Ji and she was stammering, "The lightning is attracted to our profound strength?"

    Yuan Ji nodded as he grinned at her, "The lightning is attracted to our profound strength like lodestones are attracted to metals."

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "Therefore¡­"

    Yuan Ji grinned as he stared at her body, "Therefore you have to dispel your profound aura and get a little wet."

    There was a slight flush on Ling Feiyue as she chuckled softly, "You! You are such a lecherous rascal. Is this your trick?"

    Although she had said that but she had already dispelled the protective animus that was around her.

    "So what''s the new n?" She asked shyly.

    Yuan Ji could not pull his eyes away from her body as he muttered, "It is not wet enough¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly thrown him a p but Yuan Jiughed as he leapt out of her way.

    "Lecher!"

    "Alright, alright. I will be serious. Don''t p me." Yuan Ji continued tough jovially.

    "The lightning will actually take two to three blinks of an eye to descend after it shed in the heavens. We can use our divine sense to sense whether it will be iing. If we sense that it is iing then we can use our profound strength to imbue it into our divine swords and stick it to the ground to draw the lightning away from us." Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he finished exining his n.

    Ling Feiyue''s eyes were beaming with delight. "This may just work. Let''s try it!"

    "Alright. Let''s go!"

    Therefore they had made their way up to the mountains.

    For a couple of hours, they had used the method that Yuan Ji had devised to avoid the lightning strikes and it was actually quite sessful.

    Slowly they were getting better and better with every lightning strike.

    As for Ling Feiyue, she would disy her profound aura every now and then to dry her clothes much to the disappointment of Yuan Ji.

    After leaping up the mountains for a few hours, they were already at the mid-point of the lightning trial and the frequency of the lightning had now increased.

    They soon saw an open cave with arge entrance and there were actually more than two hundred cultivators that were cramming along the sides of the cave.

    These cultivators were all here to take the lightning trials and there were more than thirty golden celestials in this ce. Many of them had burnt marks that were caused by the lightning.

    When they had appeared, many of the female cultivators were already looking shyly in their direction...

    "What a handsome pair¡­"

    "Especially the one with the fan¡­"<sub> </sub>

    It seemed to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue that they were all taking shelter and recuperating in thisrge cave here.

    Ling Feiyue whispered to Yuan Ji, "This is actually the mid-point shelter. The second half of the lightning trial is actually quite harsh to ovee. It seems that these are the cultivators that are struck here. Some are recuperating their injuries so that they can actually have the strength to turn back."

    Yuan Ji was soon frowning because he had suddenly recognized Saint Wu Heng from the Burning Heavens Pavilion.

    "Look who do we have here?" Saint Wu Hengughed to his group. "So this is the arrogant young master that has dared to shelter Li Ye and he has even made it to the fourth trial. Amazing, amazing. What is the name of his nameless celestial sect?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "This arrogant young master here is Li Yuan! Li Ye is my prot¨¦g¨¦. And we are the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Ling Feiyue muttered in exasperation at Yuan Ji, "You¡­"

    Saint Wu Heng hummed coldly, "So it is the cultivators that are from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect! No wonder you can be so arrogant. So what if you are from one of the five powerful unorthodox sects? Do you think that you can be so arrogant here? Don''t forget that my Burning Heavens Pavilion is one of the seven major orthodox ns and even the Spirit Blue Moon Sect has to find a hole to hide in front of us."

    Ling Feiyue frowned unhappily, "You are merely an elder of the Burning Heavens Pavilion. You sound like you are able to represent the entire Burning Heavens Pavilion."

    Saint Wu Heng mocked coldly, "When facing the unorthodox cultivators as amon adversary, the entire Burning Heavens Pavilion is united as one. And who are you?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled bitterly as she looked at Yuan Ji, "I am not with him. I''m Ling Feiyang from the Flying Swords Divine Sect."

    She cursed Yuan Ji silently, "Are you trying to blow my cover¡­"

    Saint Wu Hengughed, "I''ve never heard of this sect before."

    A prot¨¦g¨¦ whispered to his ears, "It is only a small celestial sect. This Young Master Ling Feiyang is renowned for his acts of chivalry and is pretty well-known. He is an orthodox cultivator."

    Saint Wu Heng frowned as he muttered, "Well, I''ve never heard of this sect or any Ling Feiyang before."

    The Flying Swords Divine Sect was actually a front that was created by Ling Feiyue so that she could have an identity while she roamed the orthodox fraternity. It was a backwater sect on a pretty unknown deste peak with only less than ten prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    In recent years, she had been doing plenty of chivalrous acts to bolster herself as an orthodox cultivator.

    Saint Wu Heng stared coldly at Ling Feiyue and said rudely, "You are an orthodox cultivator. Why are you in thepany of an unorthodox cultivator?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "ording to the ords between the orthodox and unorthodox fraternities, the trials are a neutral ground and both sides are free to group with each other so that the trials can be ovee. I am merely making use of him to ovee my trial. Therefore there is nothing wrong with it."

    Yuan Ji stared at Saint Wu Heng as he hummed coldly, "So you are looking down upon the unorthodox cultivators or despising the unorthodox cultivators?"

    When he had said that, dozens of cultivators in the shelter were all shouting. "That is right! How dare these orthodox cultivators look down upon us!"

    Many of them were now speaking out now because they had realized that a golden celestial from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was here and they were all looking at Yuan Ji for leadership.

    They did not know that Yuan Ji was actually a fake and the real prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was actually ''Ling Feiyang'' from the Flying Swords Divine Sect.

    The reason why they were so vocal now was because they had suffered the vocal humiliation of this Saint Wu Heng and his group for some time now. At the same time, they were hoping to see a fight between this Li Yuan and Saint Wu Heng.

    Saint Wu Heng eximed out loud as he returned his attention to Yuan Ji, "If you are not going to apologize to us for what Li Ye did then I am not going to let you enter into this shelter."

    As he said that, a lightning had conveniently exploded a rock near to them with a thunderous impact.

    Because the lightning was so near, the blinding thunderous impact was piercing to the hearts of all the nearby cultivators.

    "As you can see, the lightning storm from this point onward is much fiercer than the path below. You are never going to reach the summit in this thunderstorm. Even if you are staying outside the shelter, there is no promise that you will be able to survive the worst of the lightning storm from where you are standing."

    Yuan Ji was frowning and he knew that Saint Wu Heng was not lying at all. The intensity of the thunderstorms was much fiercer than earlier and he could see multiple streaks of lightning striking the ground in all directions, sending its tremendous shockwaves all around them.

    It was actually a wiser choice to wait until the thunderstorms were less fierce before moving on to the summit.

    The cultivators that were at the shelter were all experienced trial cultivators and they were all waiting for the worst of the thunderstorms to be over first before they resumed their climb to the summit.

    Saint Wu Heng smirked coldly, "Since you are unwilling to apologize then I will have to give you a chance to challenge me. If you are able to defeat me in a duel then you may take refuge in the shelter and I can even promise you that my prot¨¦g¨¦s will not disturb you as long as you are in the shelter. So what do you think?"

    When the onlookers heard Saint Wu Heng, they were already muttering to one another;

    "He is not going to win Saint Wu Heng¡­"

    "Seventh realm expert¡­"

    "Not only is Saint Wu Heng one of the top fighters in the Burning Heavens Pavilion, he is also a ranked fighter in the top 100 fighters."

    "This Li Yuan will be courting his own death if he decides to ept the challenge¡­"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he grinned, "I ept your challenge. As a matter of fact, I am going to challenge all of you here."

    Saint Wu Hengughed jovially, "You want to challenge all of us here? You must be joking!"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I''m not joking. I am going to challenge all of you to run up to the summit of the Thunder Peaks. Or are the whole lot of you just cowards that can only hide in the shelter?"

    Then heughed jovially, "Of course you are cowards or else why will you be in the shelter now. I''m so silly. So the Burning Heavens Pavilion is just so and so and just like themon sects. A little lightning and they will be hiding like tortoises in the shelter. Oh well¡­"

    Saint Wu Heng shouted angrily, "Who says we are cowards?! If you want to challenge us to go to the summit, so be it!"

    Yuan Ji gave him a thumb up, "Then let''s go now. Only cowards will hide in the shelter while only the true heroes have the real courage. It is only a little lightning."

    Saint Wu Heng said to his group of thirty that included six golden celestials, "Let''s go! We are storming the summit now!"

    "But Saint Wu, the thunderstorm is a little too dangerous for now¡­"

    "It is unwise¡­"

    "Just because they are foolish, we need not be foolhardy as well¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "So I see that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Burning Heavens Pavilion are actually cowards. I''ve heard that the Burning Heavens Pavilion is so named because its founder patriarch is not even afraid of the burning heavens that are copsing. I guess that the present crop of prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Burning Heavens Pavilions are all tortoises and is afraid of a little lightning."

    Saint Wu Heng shouted firmly, "This is my order. As long as you are a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Burning Heavens Pavilion, we will all take the lightning trial. We must not let the unorthodox cultivators look down upon us! Today, we are going to show them who are the real heroes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity!"

    Yuan Ji had already leapt away, "Bravo, bravo! But you are a little slow. You don''t mind if I make my head start first?"

    "What are you all waiting for?! Go now!" Saint Wu Heng disyed a mighty profound shout that shook the vicinity. "Thest prot¨¦g¨¦ tog behind will receive the sect''s punishment!"

    Ling Feiyue had disyed her lightless profound art as she appeared next to Yuan Ji before whispering, "What are you doing? This is crazy¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed before he lowered his voice to her ears, "Listen to me. This is the n¡­"

 Chapter 62 The Treacherous Fourth Trial (4)

    Multiple lightning bolts were now streaking across the dark heavens, causing thunders that shook the mountains with its resounding aftershocks every now and then.

    Not to mention the rain that was now pouring heavily.

    More than thirty cultivators were now making a beeline to the summit in this terrible thunderstorm.

    Among them were Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue, Saint Wu Heng and his group of thirty cultivators from the Burning Heavens Pavilion.

    It was now apetition to the top of the summit, amidst the raging thunderstorm that threatened to strike the cultivators.

    Almost immediately a barrage of lightning bolts had swept the vicinity and five cultivators had instantly lost their lives. These five cultivators were all fourth realm cultivators and they were ''killed'' instantly.

    It did not take long for Saint Wu Heng and his six golden celestials to overtake Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    Saint Wu Hengughed jovially, "Although you have the courage but your skills are stillcking. This is the power disparity that is between us. In this lifetime, you will never be able to be a seventh realm golden saint. Whether it is skill, attainment or luck, I am all above you¡­"

    All of a sudden a sh of lightning had exploded behind him and two of the golden celestials that were in his group were flung down the cliffs.

    Saint Wu Heng frowned lightly as he shouted to the rest of hispany, "Don''t worry, they won''t die. Their golden bodies will be able to take the impact of the lightning. We mustn''t slow down."

    As he said that, he and his small group of golden celestials had already leaped far away from Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    He was smiling wryly to himself in the rain, "This Li Yuan is just so and so. That Ling Feiyang as well. They are only slightly better than the fourth realm cultivators of my group but performed worse than my other golden celestials. They should be only at the initial tier of the fifth realm level. They actually have such audacity to mess around with the Burning Heavens Pavilion. What fools they are!"

    All of a sudden there was a brilliant sh in the heavens above and Saint Wu Heng did not dare to be careless as he knew a big one was iing.

    So he shouted hastily to the group of golden celestials that were behind him, "Everyone! Raise your profound strength to your highest level and don''t be careless! Brace for impact!"

    No sooner had he finished speaking, a shower of lightning bolts had struck the ground below, striking Saint Wu Heng and several of the golden celestials at the same time. Only two of the golden celestials got lucky and were unscathed.

    Saint Wu Heng was protected by his powerful profound aura when the furious white lightning had struck him furiously and exploding the ground around him into a small pit.

    "Arghhhhh!!!!" He could not resist shouting out loud. In this way, he could also increase his pain threshold as he endured the tremendous shock of the lightning bolt.

    After a while, he began to copse breathlessly on his knees. As expected, he had survived the powerful onught of the lightning bolt.

    He turned around to check the two golden celestials that were struck at the same time as he was. One was also on his knees and he was breathing hard. However the other one had been fried to a charred remain.

    The two unscathed golden celestials inhaled heavily as they muttered at the same time, "He didn''t make it."

    Their expressions were woeful and they were ashen.

    When they had said ''he didn''t make it'', they meant to say that he had died permanently. His heart could not take the shock of the powerful lightning bolt that had just struck upon them.

    Saint Wu Heng examined his soul sea and was relieved that he had only lost 1/6th of his profound strength.

    He smiled, "This lightning is nothing."

    Then he quickly rose to his feet and shouted to his group, "What are you all waiting for? Let''s hurry up and don''t let that Li Yuan catches up to us! He isn''t too far behind us!"

    When he had said that, the other two golden celestials that were flung off the cliffs earlier had returned to rejoin the group.

    Saint Wu Heng smiled to them, "Good. You are all back now. Let''s go!"

    In no time, Saint Wu Heng and the five other golden celestials were speeding up the mountains again. Their destination was the summit where the exit portal was.

    All of a sudden a powerful fork of lightning had thundered with a tremendous thunderp, shaking the heavens and the earth as it shed its brilliant light behind them and they could hear loud screams from the mountains below.

    Saint Wu Heng smirked, "Poor Li Yuan. He must have been struck by the lightning."

    Without further ado, he was back on the move again.

    Barely a whileter, lightning were shing brilliantly from the heavens as it rained down its heavenly thunderbolts on his group.

    Saint Wu Heng was struck another time while a golden celestial had vanished from the scene.

    "I told all of you to use your full profound strength. If you have used your full profound strength to resist the lightning, you will still be standing! He is only lucky that he is being sent back to the entrance of the trials." Saint Wu Heng angrily said.

    With that he had sped further up.

    Soon they had reached a steep mountain cliff.

    Some of the golden celestials were muttering, "We have to climb this steep cliff?"

    Saint Wu Heng hummed coldly, "It is only a short climb. Use all your profound strength into your lightless profound art."

    All of a sudden the whole heavens had turned white and several forks of lightning could be seen forming into a super big chain.

    Saint Wu Heng shouted to everyone, "Brace for impact! Raise your profound aura to your highest limit!"

    A series of golden auras had burst forth from Saint Wu Hei and the four remaining golden celestials.

    It was all too timely as the epassing chains of lightning changed course in the heavens to sh down onto all five of them with a tremendous burst of raw profound power that immediately sundered the earth below them!

    Everyone was flung upside down and tossed into the air as they fell in awkward positions on the ground as the dust, fires and smog flew in all directions.

    Saint Wu Heng coughed out blood and he was a little dazed. He had survived and had used up more than two third of his profound strength.

    He turned his head around to check his group; he saw the charred remain of a golden celestial and a badly shaken golden celestial.

    "Where are the other two?" Saint Wu Heng asked slowly.

    The badly shaken golden celestial was actually a sixth realm golden supremacy. She had turnedpletely ashen and her voice was hoarse, "They have all returned to the entrance of the trial¡­"

    She took the courage to stammer nervously, "Saint Wu, can I turn back? I am¡­afraid."

    Saint Wu Heng said coldly, "Once we climb up to this steep cliff, we will be almost at the summit. Come. With me around, you won''t die."<sub> </sub>

    The golden celestial began to smile awkwardly as she cast a look at the charred body of her fellow prot¨¦g¨¦. It was as though she was saying, "With you around, two had already died."

    "Saint Wu Heng, I don''t have much profound strength anymore¡­" She was almost pleading behind him.

    "Fine. Then you shall climb slowly. I shall go ahead first. I mustn''t lose to that Li Yuan." Saint Wu Heng said nonchntly.

    With that he had exercised his profound strength to exercise his lightless profound art as he shot up the steep cliff like an agile lizard.

    No sooner was he half-way up, multiple forks of lightning had shed in the heavens above and were forming into several arcs of chain lightning that were all targeting him at the same time!

    Saint Wu Heng yelled aloud in howling pain when all the lightning had struck him at the same time as he fell from the steep cliff!

    Afternding with a tremendous impact on the mountain slope below, he began to convulse in great agony as the aftershocks of the lightning bolts continued through his body.

    The chains of lightning had also exploded onto the steep cliff and had sent several huge boulders weighing several tons onto the other golden celestial that was below. Voided of almost all of her profound strength to resist the falling boulders, her golden body easily crumbled under the weight of the heavy boulders.

    When she had ''died'', she actually had a pleasant smile on her countenance as she was quite relieved that it was the boulders that had killed her and it was not the lightning that may have the chance to take her life away.

    She was actually content that she would be sent back to the entrance of the trials.

    Saint Wu Heng was flung quite a distance away from the steep cliff and was safe from the falling boulders.

    Slowly he regained the use of his body and stopped convulsing. "I''m a saint! The most powerful cultivator of the seventh realm level. How can I be defeated by mere lightning?! With my determination and willpower, I will surely ovee this lightning trial. No matter how many times the lightning has struck me, I will not give up¡­"

    All of a sudden he saw two looming shadows that were fast approaching and his divine sense told him that it was actually Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang.

    "They had actuallye this far? They didn''t die earlier?"

    As soon as Yuan Ji saw him, he said coolly. "Look who is here? So it is Saint Wu Heng. Guess he didn''t get much further than us."

    Saint Wu Heng was on his feet immediately as he turned to face Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyang with an unpleasant look.

    However when he had turned to stare at them, he was quite startled. It was because except for their wet clothing, they did not look like they had been struck by the lightning.

    Saint Wu Heng immediately said coldly, "No wonder you have dared to challenge me in this trial. You must have some lightning protection artefacts. But remember, whoever reaches the summit first is the final victor."

    With that he had mustered his remaining profound strength as he sped up to the steep cliff again.

    As soon as he mustered all his profound strength, arcs of lightning in the heavens were formed in an instant. Several strokes of lightning bolts were then shing and striking the steep cliff where Saint Wu Heng was at.

    Saint Wu Heng were struck by several lightning bolts and his charred body was now falling lifelessly from the steep cliff.

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Whether it is skill, attainment or luck, I am all below you but you are the one that is dead now."

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Yuan Ji with a light frown, "You have killed a Saint from the Burning Heavens Pavilion. Congrats, you are now the enemy of the Burning Heavens Pavilion. It is one thing to cause the death of a sixth realm cultivator but he is a saint and elder of the Burning Heavens Pavilion."

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulder as he replied, "Luckily, I have reported that I''m from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. They will be looking for you to seek their vendetta instead of me."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly but she could not resist the urge to smile, "You''re such a badass. You are framing my sect for your bad deeds. I really feel that you are a bad guy and an unorthodox cultivator in reality."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "I''ve actually learn it from you. Who is the one that has framed me a hundred years ago? This is payback time."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "Why do I have such a badass friend?"

    Yuan Ji smiled, "Because this is your bad karma."

    Ling Feiyue took a look at her surroundings as she said, "It seems that we are now the only group left. Your n really works as intended."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he rubbed his chin. "It actually works better than intended."

    The n was actually for them to use less profound strength than Saint Wu Heng and his group. They would allow Saint Wu Heng and his superior cultivators to catch up with them. In this way, they would be a natural attractor to the lightning storm on their behalf.

    "Let''s go up this steep cliff now." Yuan Ji smiled. "We will climb slowly of course."

    Ling Feiyue had a look of admiration as she stood behind his back. "If I have not met Ji Yuan, my fate will be like the group from the Burning Heavens Pavilion."

    Before long, they had climbed the steep cliff.

    Two hourster, they had reached the summit.

    By now their divine swords were burning hotly, having been struck by lightning all too many times.

    In front of them now were two portals, one green portal to return to the entrance of the trials and one blue portal to go to the next level.

    Ling Feiyue was beaming with delight. In the past, she hade very close topleting the fourth trial but had never actuallypleted it.

    Even though she was a high level cultivator but this trial was in the territory of the orthodox cultivators. Therefore she could only rely on her own strength to get as far as possible.

    She was now looking quietly at Yuan Ji. For the past few days, she had got to know him more and more. The Ji Yuan that she was curious a hundred years ago had slowly be etched in her heart after he had ''identally'' touched her bosoms.

    Although one part of her heart had felt guilt toward him and that was why she had ced a huge bounty on his whereabouts after she had learnt that Xue Qianxue had ced a bounty on him.

    At that time she did not know why she was so irrational but now she firmly knows why.

    Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin as he looked at the portal without turning his head to talk to Ling Feiyue, "So great saintess. Which one of the two portals will you be picking?"

    No answer.

    Yuan Ji turned his head around only to see Ling Feiyue was looking at him with a most alluring smile. He was so startled that he was stammering, "I am not a portal. Why are you looking at me in this manner?"

    His eyes were suddenly beaming as he drooled, "Very wet now..."

    Ling Feiyue was gasping softly as she quickly put her arms around her, "Who asks you to turn back?! Turn your head back immediately! Don''t turn back until we have gone to the next level!"

 Chapter 63 The Rewards Of The Fourth Trial

    As soon as Yuan Ji had stepped into the blue portal to the next level, he found himself in a dark space.

    He was actually quite startled as this was the first time that he had found himself drifting in a dark emptiness of the space.

    "Feiyue?"

    There was no sight of her.

    A soft harmonic voice was soon heard from the surrounding, "Do not be afraid. You are now in the spatial space of the portal. After you have received your reward, you will be sent to the next level."

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "I''ve thought that I am dead and that is why I am in a limbo. So this reward is a little special? What happens if I choose the exit portal, will the reward be more inferior?"

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "You talk too much."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    All of a sudden there were two glowing lights in front of him, one purple and one white.

    "To choose your reward, touch one of the lights in front of you."

    Yuan Ji asked, "What if I touch both at the same time?"

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "You can only choose one. Stop interrupting¡­"

    "Alright." Yuan Ji replied with a disappointed look.

    "Touching the purple light will enhance your ordinary sword to a precious sword, upgrade a precious sword by two minor grades or increase the grade of a divine sword by a minor grade. If you already have a heaven-step divine sword, it will have no effect whatever so. Got it?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he nodded, "So that means that I will be able to transform my earth-step divine sword to a heaven-step divine sword. This reward is extremely enticing."

    "If you touch the white light, you will gain a spirit entity in your soul sea."

    "What abilities do this spirit entity has?"

    "It is random." The spatial voice said.

    "What if it is a weak spirit entity?"

    "You can only take a gambit." The spatial voice replied nonchntly.

    "This is too luck dependence." Yuan Ji frowned.

    "Make your choice now." The spatial voice urged.

    Yuan Ji nodded, "Alright then."

    After he had said that, he touched the two glowing lights at once.

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "Did I just tell you that you can only touch one of the lights?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I am just curious to know what happens if I touch both the lights at the same time."

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "So, what is going to happen now?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    "Please make your choices again." The spatial voice appears to be trembling.

    "You actually have emotions?" Yuan Ji asked curiously after he had sensed the fluctuations of the spatial voice.

    "I have no emotions."  The spatial voice firmly said.

    "You sound forceful this time." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    "Please make your choice now." The spatial voice said.

    "Alright, alright. Don''t rush me." Yuan Ji grinned as he put his hands on the two lights again.

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "You touch the two lights again¡­"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "That''s right."

    "Why did you do that for?" The spatial voice sounded a little upset now.

    "I''m just checking if I may get two rewards by touching the two lights. Maybe there is a secret reward." Yuan Ji exined coolly.

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "Did I do anything wrong?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "Please make your choice again. If you touch both lights again, you will get nothing and be expelled from the trials." The spatial voice warned with a heavier tone.

    Yuan Ji nodded and once again, he moved both his hands toward the light.

    But this time the two lights began to move away from him.

    "Are you trying to touch both lights again?!" The spatial voice murmured a little louder than usual.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "How did you know? Are you a mind reader? Or you can see me?"

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "You don''t have to touch the lights anymore. Answer me if you want to touch the white light or the purple light?"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Now that is a tough question¡­"

    "You have all the time to think. I don''t mind. While in this space, your profound strength will be drained rapidly. If you don''t want to die then you can choose to answer me quickly."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin before he said slowly, "Will you like to be my spirit entity instead? You are a sentient spirit entity am I right?"

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    The spatial voice: ¡­

    "You don''t want to upgrade your earth-step divine sword into a heaven-step divine sword? A heaven-step divine sword is a thousand times more precious than an earth-step divine sword and there aren''t many in the Celestial Realm. You are making a big mistake."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "It seems that you are aware that I have an earth-step divine sword in my spatial ring. You are definitely smarter than my divine sword so therefore I won''t be wrong about choosing you to be my spirit entity."

    "Who says that I''m going to be your spirit entity? I am giving you a random spirit entity." The spatial voice protested weakly.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji asked curiously, "You are the spirit entity of the Lotus Sword Mansion? Why don''t you join me to have a look outside? It will be fun. Didn''t you say that I can choose a spirit entity by answering your question? I choose you."

    "You are twisting the nature of the trial¡­"

    Yuan Ji looked a little disappointed, "In that case, I won''t impose my will on you¡­"

    All of a sudden a beautiful spirit entity in the form of a young maiden had appeared in front of him and she was looking curiously at him.

    She had a big eyes with pointed ears, very thin and was dressed in a white sexy linen.

    The mono tone had be an alluring voice, "Are you sure that you want to pick me as your spirit entity? I''mpletely useless you know."

    Yuan Ji was gasping softly at the astonishing beauty of this picturesque spirit entity, "You are really a sentient spirit entity and you can talk."

    But he was soon smiling, "I don''t think you''repletely useless. At least you can talk to me when I''m bored."

    The spirit entity: ¡­

    But she was soon smiling, "You are really an interesting cultivator. I have never met anyone like you. You must know that I have the powers to cast you out of here. But I like you so I will join you but whether you can be my master is still too early to be determined."

    She lifted her fingers and all of a sudden Yuan Ji''s divine sword was forcefully pulled out of his spatial ring and it had transformed into a heaven-step divine sword in the next instant!

    Yuan Ji was gasping with astonishment, "This is too splendid. I thought that you are my reward? Why are you upgrading my divine sword?"

    The spirit entity smiled, "I need a vessel for my spirit entity and a heaven-step divine sword is perfect for me. Moreover..."

    She lifted her nose to sniff before continuing, "Moreover, the scent of your divine sword is too heavenly. The former mistress of your divine sword must be a heavenly maiden."

    "You can always stay in my soul sea." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    "That will be too impure for me." The spirit entity smiled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "My soul sea is impure?" Yuan Ji was frowning lightly.

    "And your thoughts too." The spirit entity added nonchntly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "This is too personal." Yuan Ji frowned but he was soon smiling, "So what is your name?"

    "Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er."

    Yuan Ji frowned, "Your name is a little too long. I shall call you Xiang Li in the future."

    "Up to you." Xiang Li giggled before she vanished into the newly formed heaven-step divine sword.

    Yuan Ji said to his divine sword with a soft sigh, "Not bad. I got a sentient spirit entity that likes my divine sword better than my soul sea. She is indeed a little useless. She really did not lie to me at all."

    Once a cultivator was able to obtain a spirit entity, he would be able to put it into their soul sea. From there they could obtain some of the profound power of their spirit entity.

    But of course the added profound power had a price as the spirit entity needed to draw upon the profound strength of the cultivator and that was the main reason why the spirit entity could only dwell in the soul sea of the cultivator.

    Without the soul sea of the cultivator to support the spirit entity, it would slowly fade away.

    Yuan Ji was aware of this and he could not resist asking Xiang Li, "You can survive on your own without my soul sea?"

    Xiang Li giggled softly, "I can''t but I can leech off your soul sea if I want to since your soul sea is already opened to me."

    Yuan Ji frowned as he rubbed his chin, "Why is that I feel that something is amiss here? She can use my profound strength but I can''t use her profound power? This sound like ame exchange here¡­"

    "I did tell you that I am useless¡­" Xiang Li giggled. "So are you regretting it now?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I only regret teasing you earlier."

    All of a sudden there was a bright light and Yuan Ji found himself back to a familiar mountain environment.

    Ling Feiyue was standing in front of him and she was smiling with delight, "What take you so long? For a moment I thought that something has happened to you."

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "Well, almost. So what is your reward?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she lifted her palm and there was a wisp of white light. "I was given two options. A spirit entity or an opportunity to upgrade my divine sword. Since I''ve already got a heaven-step divine sword and I havee to the trials to obtain a spirit entity, my choice is naturally the spirit entity."

    She giggled softly, "And guess what? I''ve got a unique spirit entity. This is a sword spirit."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "A sword spirit?" He had always dreamed of obtaining a sword spirit but he could only dream of it.

    A sword spirit would be most useful to him for reaching a greater enlightenment in his insight with his sword art.

    He was a little envious of Ling Feiyue now and muttered, "I wish that this is my reward."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "So what is your reward?"

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly, "I have the exact reward as you. I choose the spirit entity reward as well."

    "Oh? What is the spirit manifestation of your spirit entity? Quick, show it to me."

    Yuan Ji took out his new heaven-step divine sword and said awkwardly, "She is inside now."

    "Your earth-step divine sword is now a heaven-step divine sword? You have actually chosen the other reward. Why did you say you have chosen the spirit entity as your reward huh?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I''ve actually chosen the spirit entity as my reward but she had upgraded my divine sword instead."

    Ling Feiyue: ???

    "Xiang Li, why don''t youe out to exin? I can''t summon you because you are not in my soul sea." Yuan Ji muttered to his divine sword.

    No response.

    "Can you hear me?"

    No response.

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "Obviously you have chosen the option to upgrade your divine sword. Your joke isn''t funny."

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes as he said awkwardly, "Wait, and hear me out please. Earlier, I was teasing my spirit entity and now she is teasing me back¡­"

    Ling Feiyue turned her back on him, "I don''t want to talk to a liar. Go away."

    Yuan Ji swung his sword and hit it on the ground, "Come out to exin, will you? You''re screwing me now, you know?"

    No answer.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Alright, you win." Yuan Ji smiled bitterly before he forced himself to say aloud to Ling Feiyue, "Alright, I was only joking earlier. I had actually chosen the option of upgrading my divine sword¡­"

    While he was exining to Ling Feiyue, he was cursing Xiang Li silently. "My spirit entity is indeed useless¡­"

    Ling Feiyue returned him a gentle smile, "I will forgive you because I know that you''re envious of my sword spirit. So let''s check the ck stele for the final trial now."

    Yuan Ji said weakly, "I am indeed envious of your sword spirit..."

 Chapter 64 Trial Of The Golden Citadel (1)

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were now cing their hands on the ck stele but their nces were on each other instead.

    Ling Feiyue shyly averted her eyes as she muttered softly, "Do you know that you have to focus your thoughts to decipher the messages in the stele?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I can read and look at you at the same time."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "Don''t decipher or interpret the wrong message." But secretly, she was pleased in her heart that Yuan Ji was looking at her.

    The messages of the ck stele;

    "Trial of the Golden Citadel."

    "Storm the golden stairs to the golden citadel above."

    "What is this trial? And where is the golden citadel?" Yuan Ji frowned lightly.

    "It is abat trial. And it is pretty hard." Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh. "Let''s take a look over the mountains first."

    Yuan Ji nodded.

    Before long they were overlooking the mountains and were astonished that there was a golden citadel that was floating on a in below them.

    This floating golden citadel had a flight of golden stairs that led directly to its golden gates and they could see sporadic fighting that was at the bottom of the golden stairs.

    Dozens of cultivators were fighting a group of golden golems that resembled heavy armored warriors. These golden golems were everywhere on the golden stairs. However the majority of the golden golems that were lined up in row of five did not move from their positions.

    It seemed that they would only be triggered once the cultivators were close enough to them.

    A big group of cultivators that numbered several hundreds were also watching the fight keenly but they made no attempt to help the dozens of cultivators.

    Yuan Ji said to Ling Feiyue, "Let''s go and take a closer look."

    Ling Feiyue returned a light nod, "It seems that this trial is a group trial and not a solo trial."

    In no time they had crossed the in and were now where the hundreds of cultivators had gathered. They were just in time to see that the earlier group of cultivators had all beenpletely vanquished and the ''destroyed'' golden golems on the golden stairs had beenpletely revived.

    When the hundreds of cultivators saw Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue, they looked a little disappointed that there were only the two of them.

    However most of the cultivators were friendly enough to disy a hand gesture when they saw them. It was because anyone that could reach the fifth level of the trial was a strong cultivator that deserved their respect.

    Yuan Ji estimated that there were about two hundred cultivators and there were roughly fifty golden celestials among them. Although it was difficult for a non-golden celestial to reach the fifth level but most of these lower level cultivators were apanying their n''s elders or experts and they got a free ride to the top.

    Most of them were the survivors of the epic deste beast trial on the fourth level.

    Now that Yuan Ji was near the golden stairs, he could see that the golden stair were actually giant flight of stairs that reached all the way to the floating golden citadel. The length of the step was 10m in length and width, and a 1m in height. All in all, there were a hundred golden steps.

    The golden citadel was floating higher than they had expected.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "100m. This trial is too difficult."

    She looked  a little disappointed because it seemed to her that there was no way for her toplete the trial.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin before adding, "This is an interesting trial."

    Most of the cultivators were now discussing the earlier battle.

    "We told them not to try until we have more experts but they didn''t listen to us and they have paid with their lives."

    "Maybe they just want to exit the trial."

    "Did you see that? Once a golden golem gets vanished, it will roughly take just a while for it to be revived."

    "These golden golems are unkible. How the heck are we able to get to the top?"

    "Each of the golden golems has the equivalent profound strength of a fifth realm cultivator. That is from the results of our testing from the lower flight of stairs. We don''t know how strong these things are at the top."<sub> </sub>

    "This trial is to weed out the weak. Only the strongest cultivators are able toplete this trial."

    "We don''t have unlimited profound strength and healing pills to keep attempting this trial. Why don''t we exit the trial? Our results are already good enough¡­"

    "Only those who canplete the trial will have their names written in the valley outside¡­"

    "In the end, we are all nameless cultivators¡­"

    "Do we have any saints around here?"

    "I saw several saints before the start of the trials. Saint Wu Heng from the Burning Heavens Pavilion and Saint Mo Xingku of the Flying Daggers Divine Sect are also here. We can choose to wait for them."

    "Why aren''t they here yet? Did something happen to them?"

    "They are saints. Nothing will happen to them on the lower level trials."

    "I heard that Saint Mo Xingku has purposely slowed down his speed just so that he can kill the cultivators."

    "That is his style. I wish that we won''t be meeting him here."

    "I wonder just how many of these level five trials are opened? If the stronger cultivators are not here then our situation here are truly hopeless."

    "We got fifty golden celestials here. If we want to storm to the golden citadel above, we still have a chance."

    "So we are waiting for more cultivators to arrive?"

    "We have two more golden celestials that have just arrived¡­"

    "They don''t look particrly strong. The one with the fan looks stronger."

    "Just two handsome but useless young masters¡­they must have lost all their retinues when they areing here¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji whispered to Ling Feiyue, "You look weaker than me. Howe they are gossiping that you actually look stronger than me?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly as she waved her fan, "That is because I''m more handsome than you. That''s why."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Jiughed weakly before he said solemnly, "Feiyue, let''s take this trial together."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Just the two of us?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "That''s right."

    "But these golden golems have the profound strength of a fifth realm golden celestial and they are way tougher. They won''t feel any pain and won''t be slowed down by our attacks."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Isn''t that great then? We can test our strength to our limits. This is a trial after all."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Alright but don''t you die before me or I will be really unhappy."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I won''t. I am more afraid that you will be the one that will be killed."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "I won''t."

    But she quietly whispered to him, "Do you have a stratagem?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "We will fight our way up slowly, one step at a time."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

 Chapter 65 Trial Of The Golden Citadel (2)

    When Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had walked toward the golden stairs, the two hundred over cultivators were startled.

    Many of them were shouting at them, "Hey, do you want to join our group? Do you want to wait for the leaders to decide on the next course of action first?"

    But Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue ignored them all as they continued their way to the golden stairs and they had their sights only on the golden golems.

    "These two golden celestials are going to be dead cultivators soon¡­"

    "Foolish¡­"

    "Maybe they are just trying to exit the trial¡­"

    "Just ignore them¡­"

    "It is just two neers that are just trying to show off¡­"

    "They are quite handsome looking¡­"

    "Handsome but useless¡­"

    "Brainless fools¡­"

    "I wonder what their realm levels are?"

    "Must be some newly fifth realm golden celestials¡­"

    "I know the one with the fan. He is Young Master Ling Feiyang and he is a fifth realm cultivator¡­"

    "Young Master Ling Feiyang? I have heard that Young Master Ling Feiyang is a pretty smart cultivator. Howe he is so foolish now?"

    "He is Young Master Ling Feiyang?" A female cultivator was gasping and soon quite a few of the female cultivators were all looking at Ling Feiyue.

    "I have always wanted to meet him. He is so dashing¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had unsheathed their heaven-step divine swords from their spatial rings, startling the onlookers.

    "Both of them have a heaven-step divine sword¡­"

    "Heaven grade divine swords¡­"

    "Who is the other cultivator that is next to Young Master Ling Feiyang?"

    "I have never heard that Young Master Ling Feiyang had a divine sword before¡­"

    "The two of them must have some influential background?"

    "Or they have a lucky urrence in the trials and manage to obtain a divine sword?"

    Yuan Ji turned to grin at Ling Feiyue, "Are you ready?"

    Ling Feiyue returned a gentle smile to him, "Anytime."

    The reason why Ling Feiyue had agreed to his crazy n was because this was a perfect opportunity for her to cultivate her sword spirit entity.

    Yuan Ji smiled as he gave her a thumb up for her determination and courage but he could not resist giving her a warning, "It is better that you restrain from using your Unrighteous Moon Profound Force. It is too draining on your profound strength."

    Ling Feiyue smiled shyly, "I will remember this."

    "So¡­" she added. "We will give our best from the start?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "Yes. This trial is a test of our profound strength and sword arts."

    With that he had shed to the first step and had started to disy his sword in a furious sh against one of the golden golems.

    Immediately the golden golem that was shed by Yuan Ji''s sword exploded into smithereens.

    Yuan Ji was slightly shocked because he had never expected the power of a heaven-step divine sword would actually be twice as powerful as an earth-step divine sword. Moreover, he had socketed the Crystal Celestium in his divine sword that enhanced the profound power of his sword by 10%.

    He quickly concluded, "Although these golden golems have the profound strength of the fifth realm cultivator but against an expert, their movements were still too inanimate and were actually weaker than the average fifth realm cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue had shed next to him and she had also shed a golden golem apart with her divine sword. Her profound strength was greater than that of Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly to her as he whispered to her, "Don''t use too much of your profound strength. We still got a long way to the top."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Alright, my lord."

    In just a few blinks of an eye, they had already demolished all the golden golems and were on the tenth step.

    Below the golden stair, the golden golems were now reviving slowly but the revived golden golems did not move from the steps that they were at.

    It was exactly as Yuan Ji had thought so and that was why he had never turned his head back to fight the revived golden golems.

    Although the golden golems could climb up and down the stairs to fight them but it seemed that the revived golden golems were following a specialw to only fight the cultivators that were near them.

    Therefore Yuan Ji knew that they had to fight faster than the revived golden golems and they would be safe as long as they could stay several steps above them.

    In the meantime the cultivators below were greatly startled.

    It was because their divine senses had quickly gauged that these foolish two cultivators were actually seventh realm saints!

    "They are golden saints of the seventh realm level¡­"

    "Young Master Ling Feiyang is also a saint?!"

    "Look at the ease that they have stormed up to the tenth golden step¡­"

    "The sword shes that were executed by the cultivator that is next to Ling Feiyang is so seasoned and flows so well that you can actually feel it¡­"

    "The two of them are like master swordsmen¡­"

    "They are now at the twentieth steps¡­"

    "Thirtieth steps now¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were now regretting that they did not follow after their leads.

    "We have fifty golden celestials here but we can only watch them from below¡­"

    "They are saints. Their recovery rates are above us¡­"

    A golden celestial said as he stroked his long beard, "But they won''t be able to make it. Mark by words. Although they have a stronger profound strength than us but their sword arms will only get heavier and heavier due to constant exertions."

    Another golden celestial was nodding, "I have kept a count of their strokes. They have already used more than a thousand strokes each and even if they were saints, they can''t go beyond the two thousand strokes."

    The golden celestial with the long beard smiled as he said aloud, "They have used one stroke to clean the golden celestials at the very start. It is because they are at their peak forms. But after the tenth steps, they require two or more strokes to handle these golden golems. Now they need five or more strokes now to deal with these golden golems. It is obvious that their bodies cannot keep up with the constant use of their profound strength."

    Everyone was muttering at the wisdom that was muttered by the golden celestial with the long beard, "He''s right. It is a marathon without a break. There is no way that they can seed in reaching to the very top. They should have waited for us. Although they are saints but they are two foolish saints¡­"

    Before long, Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had reached the fifty golden steps which were the mid-point. Their attacks were now faltering because of the number of shes that they had to execute. However their profound strength was still intact.

    Yuan Ji said, "It is time to be more forceful."

    With that he had unleashed three ground waves of sword energies that imploded all the golden golems in their way. Altogether, eighteen golden golems were destroyed.

    When the cultivators saw the waves of sword energies, they were all gasping. "He is a high level sword energies practitioner¡­"

    "With a heaven-step divine sword and his high level sword energies technique, these golden golems are nothing to him¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled when she saw Yuan Ji''s sword energies disy and she was not going to let him belittle her.

    With a sh, she had leapt forward and had raised her sword.

    There was a white profound aura that was enveloping her sword before a beam of white light had shed with a startling profound power across the flight of golden steps that was even more powerful than Yuan Ji''s sword energies waves.<sub> </sub>

    As a matter of fact, all the golden golems up to the seventieth steps were all demolished by Ling Feiyue!

    Yuan Ji was startled with great astonishment, "What the heck is that?!"

    Ling Feiyue returned him a wryly smile as her body faltered backward, "This is the profound power of my new sword spirit entity. I have only justprehended it. Mmm, I shall name it as the Retribution of the Profound Heaven Light. Do you think that this name is nice?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I''m extremely envious of your sword spirit now." But secretly he was a little anxious for her; it was because he knew that this profound art must have drained most of her profound strength.

    He was staring at his sword and muttering silently, "Xiang Li, you are a little useless. No, truly useless¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she shed up the steps, "Don''t just idle there, we have thirty more steps more to go!"

    Although she lookedposed but in secret, her heart was anxious. She had purposely used half of her profound strength to clear the obstacles for the two of them. It was because she did not want her Ji Yuan to perish here.

    As Yuan Ji sped up the stairs, Xiang Li had suddenly appeared in his soul sea and was smiling. "I''m d you know how trash I am now. But you are not that bad. I really didn''t expect that you will be a high level sword energies cultivator. Now, this is interesting."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji noticed that his divine sword had a halo and was resonating loudly.

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she gasped, "You have divine harmonized with your divine sword already?!"

    When a cultivator had divine harmonized with his divine sword, the profound power of his divine sword would increase tremendously.

    However this was not as easy as it sounded. There were many cultivators that spent hundreds of years in vain trying to divine harmonize with their divine swords.

    Xiang Li said to Yuan Ji, "Why don''t you use your sword energies waves again?"

    Yuan Ji immediately swung his sword arm and executed his sword energies waves again.

    He was startled to see that this time that his ground sword energies waves were so muchrger and it could travel even longer. Because it was so muchrger now, it was like a moving coiling dragon that destroyed all the golden golems all the way up to the nieth steps!

    When Ling Feiyue saw his sword energies waves, she was greatly astonished.

    Yuan Ji could not resist giving her a wryly smirk, "This is my improvised sword energies waves. I call this the Flying Coiling Dragon Sword."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Show off."

    Yuan Ji was not about to stop there. He had shed to the nieth steps and unleashed dozens of sword bursts.

    Although his sword bursts were weaker than his new sword energy technique but it was able to hit more targets.

    Yuan Ji was quite astonished that he could actually produce three times as many sword energies bursts now after he had divine harmonized with his divine sword.

    He murmured to Xiang Li, "You are not so trash after all. You are willing to divine harmonize with me?"

    Xiang Li giggled softly before her beautiful form disappeared from his soul sea, "It is not entirely out of my own free will. It is the will of your divine sword. You truly cherish your divine sword and that is why I am just giving you an extra help."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly. This divine sword was from Xia Jiajia and he truly cherished it because it was her pledge of love for him.

    Ling Feiyue had shed next to him with a gentle smile, interrupting his thoughts. "It seems that your show off has failed. Your sword bursts didn''t even manage to kill a single golden golem."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially. He was only testing his profound skills and was not really aiming for any kills.

    "Why don''t we use our most powerful profound arts for thest ten remaining steps?"

    "Why not?" Ling Feiyue smiled.

    "Let use it at the same time and see who has the most number of kills." Yuan Ji suggested.

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly as she shouted, "Retribution of the Profound Heaven Light!"

    "Flying Coiling Dragon Sword!"

    As the two of them used their profound arts together, a wondrous sight would suddenly be seen as their profound auras seemingly merged into one.

    The white light of the Retribution of the Profound Heaven Light was energized and was enveloped by the sword energies that hade from Yuan Ji''s sword, causing it to expand to twice its size and range.

    As for Yuan Ji''s Flying Coiling Dragon Sword, instead of a wave of sword energies that sped across the ground, it was lifted into the air and was coiling around Ling Feiyue''s profound force.

    In that single instant, a beautiful beam of coiling white dragon could be seen by everyone as it swallowed up all the remaining golden golems.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were both startled. It was because they had identally created a newbined profound art together.

    Combining two or more profound arts were not as easy as it looked because the practitioners must be fully in synergy and it was mostly in theory only. Most of the timebining two or more profound arts would have a weaker result as the profound arts cancelled each other.

    But today they had witnessed a miracle that was happening in front of them and this new profound art was more powerful than the original profound art!

    Ling Feiyue put her fingers on her mouth as she stared in bewilderment at Yuan Ji, "This is abined profound art. We have actuallybined our two profound arts together.

    Yuan Ji was also startled because he had not thought that it was possible. It was because in the past, he had done many experiments on it but the profound arts would often negate each other.

    But this time, their profound powers had actually merged together!

    Ling Feiyue was smiling sweetly at Yuan Ji, "Do you think that we are a perfect match?"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Maybe."

    Then he was grinning, "This new profound art that we have just created together...do you think that we should give it a good sounding name?"

    Ling Feiyue shyly lowered her nces to say, "Indeed. But I need some time to think of a wonderful name for this new profound art that we have just created."

    When they had created this newbined profound art together, they also gained gained a new insight to use a weaker version of this newbined profound art as a new original profound art.

    In short, they had just invented a new profound art together!

    Below them, all the cultivators were astonished that they could reach the top of the golden citadel and they were even more astonished to see abined profound art that they had never seen before.

    Many of the cultivators were now having regrets that they had looked down on Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    Quite a number of cultivators dropped their jaws when they saw thebined profound art and were shivering to think what would happen if this powerful profound art were to be used on them.

    "This profound art is too exaggerating¡­"

    "How do you evade an AOE attack like that beam of coiling light that resembles a flying white dragon¡­"

    "Thatbine profound art is the manifestation of strength between two seventh realm experts¡­"

    "I bet that even a sixth realm expert may lose all his profound strength just to resist thatbine profound art alone¡­"

    "Young Master Ling Feiyang is actually so formidable¡­"

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had now reached the gates of the golden citadel now. As they approached the gates, it slowly opened and they could see a golden portal beyond the golden citadel.

    Yuan Ji said as he looked at his divine sword, "The reward for the final trial has better to be good or I will throw you away."

    Ling Feiyue: ???

    "Why would you throw your divine sword away if the reward doesn''t meet your expectations?" She asked. "I feel that the rewards are secondary. Now we can finally leave our names for everyone to see."

    Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "If I tell you that I have the spirit entity of the Lotus Sword Mansion inside my divine sword, will you believe me?"

    Ling Feiyue shook her head as she smiled gently, "I don''t believe."

    Xiang Li wasughing jovially in Yuan Ji''s soul sea, "You will never throw your divine sword away. If you have the heart to do so, you won''t be able to divine harmonize with your divine sword earlier."

    But she turned a little solemn to question him, "You like her?"

    Yuan Ji muttered in his soul sea, "Why do you say that?"

    "Because if you don''t like her, you won''t be able to synergy so well with her." Xiang Li slowly faded away with a chuckle ofughter.

 Chapter 66 The Final Trial Reward

    The exhausted Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had stepped into the golden shimmering portal that was beyond the gates of the golden citadel.

    They had a smile on them. It was because although they had almost depleted most of the profound strength but they had finally cleared the final trial and would be exiting soon.

    The profound strength that they had expended was based on the strength of their profound energies. After a short period of cultivation, their profound strength would recover.

    This was different from Yuan Ji''s loss of profound strength when he just had his breakthrough which used up almost all the profound energies in his inner cultivation sea. This loss of profound strength was many times more difficult to recover back as the spiritual essences of the soul sea was used up to expand the spiritual boundaries of the soul sea to the next realm level.

    That was the reason why Yuan Ji had his profound strength weakened to the fourth realm level even though he was technical a half-step seventh realm saint. Only when he had fully stabilized his inner cultivation core in his soul sea would he be considered a full saint.

    At that time Yuan Ji had already used up all his reserved spirit stones for his forced breakthrough.

    That was also the main reason why he had left his cultivation retreat immediately after his breakthrough because he had run out of spirit stones. He did not have more because he had actually bankrupted his sect for his breakthrough and his sect was not a rich sect.

    Yuan Ji muttered aloud at the same time, "I wonder what the rewards for clearing theplete trial of the Sword Lotus Mansion will be? Maybe it will be a thousand high grade spirit stones."

    He had purposely said that aloud so that Xiang Li could hear him and he hoped to influence the rewards to some extends.

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly when she had heard him. A thousand high grade spirit stones were nothing to her.

    But to Yuan Ji, it was actually a lot. If he had a thousand high grade spirit stones, he would havepleted his seventh realm breakthrough a lot sooner.

    His speed of breakthrough however was still considered a lot faster than most cultivators because of his natural talents.

    It was just not as fast aspared to the cultivators that were from the super rich celestial ns like Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. They could literally throw spirit stones away without a single care.

    Because Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue could afford the high grade spirit stones, they had only remained half-step saints for only a few short months while most cultivators would need six months, a year, three years and even ten years depending on their cultivation resources and the richness of the spiritual veins of the mountains that they were at.

    In a blink of an eye, they found themselves in a golden hallway and there was a white hall in front of them.

    They gave a discreet nod to each other before shing into the white hall.

    A statuesque picturesque maiden was standing with her hands folding in a polite etiquette in front of them.

    When Yuan Ji saw her, he was a little startled because this statuesque peerless maiden was a more mature maiden than his spirit entity and was at the height of her beauty. His spirit entity was like a young teen that was a blossoming flower while this maiden was the blossomed flower.

    A thin veil of transparent silk covered her revealing curved bosoms and her thighs but hide nothing to the eyes; it was obvious that she was not wearing any body lingerie or undies.

    Yuan Ji silently frowned, "Isn''t that Xiang Li? She may as well be naked. She is just wearing a paper thin towel. One pull from my fingers and she will be stripped in all her naked glory in front of me. Moreover, she is wearing silk that doesn''t hide her body¡­"

    He was staring hard at her perky bosoms¡­and was drooling.

    When this statuesque peerless maiden saw Yuan Ji, she winked her eyes with a mischievous look before saying serenely. "I am the spirit entity of the trials and I am here to wee your triumphs and to reward you for your trials."

    Ling Feiyue was gasping softly, "You are the trial''s spirit entity? I have never heard of such a thing. This is the first time that I am aware that the trial has a spirit entity."

    The statuesque peerless maiden smiled gently as she nodded in Ling Feiyue''s direction, "It is because this trial won''t be opened again for a long time."

    Ling Feiyue was startled at the revtion, "What happens? Has something happened?"

    The statuesque peerless maiden smiled, "It is the nature of the trial to go into slumber after a period of time. It is nothing unusual."

    Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh of relief as she nodded.

    Yuan Ji muttered silently, "It is because Xiang Li is taking a vacation in my divine sword. Should I tell Xiang Li that I will be dead in four months'' time? I wonder what her reaction will be. She will probably be the first spirit entity to die outside the trial¡­"

    He began to rub his chin as he chuckled silently, "I can''t wait to see her reaction."

    When a master of a spirit entity died, the spirit entity would die along with the master.

    The statuesque peerless maiden smiled, "There is another reason why I have appeared and that is to deliver to you a revtion on your past, present and future."

    Yuan Ji: ???

    Ling Feiyue also had a perplexed look.

    "I''m the samsara of your past, present and future. I am actually touched by the love story of your past reincarnations."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "We know each other in our past reincarnation?"

    The statuesque peerless maiden nodded with a gentle smile, "It is not only a past reincarnation but three previous reincarnations as well."

    She waved a hand as she disyed two blurry images of them for them to view.

    Then she pointed at Yuan Ji and said quietly, "In your first reincarnation, he is your senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother and you are his little prot¨¦g¨¦ sister. He had died protecting you from a deste beast and you hadmitted suicide shortly after because you missed him so much."

    *''Little prot¨¦g¨¦ sister, be strong. My life is no consequences to yours. As long as I can protect your life, I am happy¡­''*

    *''Senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother, I don''t want to leave you¡­''*

    "In your second reincarnation, you are an assassin and he is the target of your assassination. But because he loved you, he allowed you to pierce his heart. And when you realized that you were also in love with him, you took your own life."

    *''I treat you as my friend, why did you want to kill me?''*

    *''I hope that when I had died, you will forever remember me¡­''*

    *''Why didn''t you retaliate¡­why didn''t you?!''*

    "In your third reincarnation, the two of you are cultivators from two rival celestial ns. In the end, the two of you can''t put aside your n rivalries and he gave up his life for you so that you can put aside your hatred for his celestial n."

    *''I''m staking my life for you to put down your hatred for my sect. I''m staking my faith in you for you to drop your hatred¡­''*

    *''Why? Why didn''t you tell me that you love me? Why didn''t you tell me sooner?!''*

    When Ling Feiyue saw the images that were disying in front of her, both her hands were on her mouth and she was in tears.

    She was muttering with shock and her tears were dripping silently, "To think that we have such a past together. Not just a past but three previous pasts together. And every time he had given up his life for me¡­"

    Yuan Ji was however shouting in his soul sea, "Xiang Li! You are making this up, am I right?"

    A sweetughter was heard in his soul sea, "What do you think of my stories? Is it touching?"

    "My foot!" Yuan Ji shouted. "You will only screw her up."

    "Isn''t that good? Then you can have the beauty of your heart. Consider this my reward for you and¡­for her."

    Yuan Ji frowned unhappily in his soul sea, "This reward is toome!"

    The statuesque peerless maiden smiled to Ling Feiyue and Yuan Ji, "Consider this my reward for you. You may proceed to the memorial stone in front to etch your names at the entrance of the trial for all to remember."

    Ling Feiyue nodded as she took a shy nce at Yuan Ji before she averted her bleary eyes, "This reward is too great. Thank you for this precious reward¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly at Xiang Li as he cursed her silently, "I want my 1000 high grade spirit stones. This is themest reward that I have ever heard."

    When Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had walked to the memorial stone toy their hands on it, Xiang Li was smiling behind them as she said silently. "In this lifetime, you will be together. I will be here to aid you¡­"

    Ling Feiyue asked Yuan Ji, "What is the name that you will be disying?"

    Yuan Ji smiled, "I will use Li Yuan."

    Ling Feiyue nodded shyly, "I will use Ling Feiyang."

    Yuan Ji whispered to her, "Don''t listen to her nonsenses. She is just skipping the rewards for us."

    Ling Feiyue lowered her nces shyly, "It is real. I can feel it. Just like I can feel you right now."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Just as Yuan Ji had wanted to protest further, there was a bright shimmering light and they were being sent back to the outside of the trials.

    Xiang Li smiled gently as she sent them away. "Of course there is a real reward. It is a hidden reward that can purify your inner spiritual seas. One day, you will kowtow in front of me and you will be kissing my foot in return of my gratitude for you."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were now outside the trials and they had found themselves back to the deste valley where they hade from.

    Outside there were thousands of cultivators who were still camping around the area as they waited for the results of theirpanions and rivals.

    Above the deste valley, two names had suddenly appeared and they were Li Yuan and Ling Feiyang!

    Almost immediately, all the cultivators were aroused and they were all looking at the cliffs where the two names had appeared.

    "Look, these are the names of the first two cultivators that havepleted the trials¡­"

    "Li Yuan? Ling Feiyang?"

    "Who is this Li Yuan?"

    "I know Ling Feiyang¡­"

    "I''ve met them inside the trials earlier¡­"

    "They are actually saint cultivators¡­"

    "They are seven realm experts?!"

    "This Li Yuan is too formidable¡­don''t mess with him¡­"

    "Do you know that Saint Mo Xingku was killed by this Li Yuan?"

    "I have heard that even Saint Wu Heng had also died because of him¡­"

    "Just what is the background of this Li Yuan?"

    "Look! There are seven more names!"

    "Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Yue Lingxi, Tang Xuefeng, Qian Jingjing, Feng Minyue, Xuan Danfeng..."

    "Who are they?"

    "I know them...because I was killed by that demon Lu Qingyun just a while ago..."

    "I was killed by them too..."

    "I think quite a few of us are killed by them..."

    "I had overheard them counting the merit points before I was killed..."

    "Before I die, I was their 10,100 merit points..."

    Immediately after Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had exited the trials, they had quickly exited the deste valley.

    Ling Feiyue asked him, "You''re not waiting for your two little sisters?"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Don''t worry. They will find me no matter where I go." He was not wrong because Hua Wuwu had ced her profound signature on him.

    No sooner had he said that, two sweet voices were heard calling to them. "Where do you think you''re going?"

    And two lovely saintesses had shed in front of them with jovial chuckles. "What takes the two of you so long? We are almost bored of waiting for you."

    They were indeed Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Actually if you are bored of waiting, you can return to the town first. I will catch up with youter."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were bothughing jovially but between their jovialughter, there was a hidden killing intent and they seemed to be warning Yuan Ji that he would have a tough luck in trying to get rid of them.

    Author Note:

    The romantic arc with Ling Feiyue is longer than usual. It is because I want a reason why each of the maidens like Ji Yuan/ Yuan Ji.

    Shangguan Yan''Er and Ye Chengxi are easy to exin because they have spent considerable time with Ji Yuan.

    Xue Qianxue has actually wanted to meet Ji Yuan for a long time, even setting up a ruse to meet him. And she can''t forget Ji Yuan after their fateful encounter.

    Although Ling Feiyue can''t forget about Ji Yuan a hundred years ago but they are from two different fraternities. Even if she likes Ji Yuan, she has quietly kept her feelings in her heart. But one hundred yearster, she admires another man Li Yuan, not knowing that he is actually Ji Yuan whom she has admired a long time ago.

    This trial arc is where she opens her heart to Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan is forced to open his heart for her as well. At the same time, they are able to clear much of their misunderstandings.

    The trial arc starts simple enough;

    Ling Feiyue just wants to obtain a spirit entity to aid her in her future cultivation while Ji Yuan is only in the trial to obtain precious cultivation resources to aid him in his uing duel.

 Chapter 67 Night Of Temptation (1)

    Immediately after the trials had ended, Yuan Ji had returned to the same tavern that he had stayed at before he had set off for the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials.

    It waste at night now, a few mere hours after Yuan Ji had returned to the tavern.

    The breezes were cool andforting but to Yuan Ji, it could not calm his mncholy heart.

    Yuan Ji was now alone in a corner of the roof as he stared nkly at the heavens above. Whenever he was troubled, he would stare at the heavens.

    His heart was extremely troubled and heavy.

    And he was sighing heavily.

    He had already decided on his next course of action and that was to free Xue Qianxue from her imprisonment.

    "Am I strong enough?" He questioned himself.

    In the past, he had set himself a goal of defeating Xue Qianxue who was a middle-tier saintess. But now he was fighting against the entire Celestial Orthodox Sect and he was alone.

    But that was not all.

    He had also discovered that he had also liked Ling Feiyue...

    "What are you doing up here? Is the breeze so nice up here?" It was Ling Feiyue and she had shed next to him.

    She was smiling and her quiet demeanor was extremely enticing to look at.

    However Yuan Ji dared not look into her mesmerizing eyes and her enticing smiles.

    "Ji Yuan, I have thought of a name for the profound art that we have created. What do you think of the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon?"

    Yuan Ji did not reply to her question and instead he said coldly to her, "We should part now."

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she gasped softly, "But why?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "Because we are from two different fraternities. Because you are Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue."

    Ling Feiyue was still smiling, "You must be joking with me, am I right? Have you forgotten that we have been through four lifetimes now?"

    Yuan Ji frowned, "You really believe in that nonsense? Fancy that you are a great saintess and yet you can be so gullible."

    "I am gullible? Spirit entities cannot lie. Do you know?" Ling Feiyue smiled as she pointed out.

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "I really do not know."

    Ling Feiyue gently touched his shoulder with a gentle smile, "Don''t joke anymore, alright? What are you nning to do next?"

    She continued to look at him with a smitten look. In her heart, he was now her everything¡­

    Yuan Ji grinned coldly, "I am going to tell the entire orthodox fraternity that I had kissed Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and that she is too easy."

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she stared nkly at him, "You are serious? This is a bad joke, you know?"

    She was looking slightly confused now.

    Yuan Ji hummed, "Haven''t you realized that I''ve only been ying you? On ount that we have been through so much in the trials of the Lotus Sword Mansion therefore I am telling you my honest thought now."

    Ling Feiyue quicklyposed herself to say coolly, "I can help you to fight the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. At most, we shall perish together. What is there to be afraid of?"

    Was it because Ji Yuan was afraid that he would drag her into trouble?

    Yuan Jiughed, "You still don''t get it? I am not afraid of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower. I just don''t like you. I only like Xia Jiajia, Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan''Er. In my heart, you have no ce whatever so."

    Ling Feiyue lowered her nces before she said bitterly, "So, this is truly from the bottom of your heart?"

    She was trembling now and she was looking with a bewildered look at him. Her alluring eyes were now pleading with him to retract what he had just said¡­

    Yuan Ji replied coldly, "It is truly from the bottom of my heart. I don''t want to see you ever again. Consider this a cancetion of our feud. From now onward, we no longer owe each other."

    Ling Feiyue was trembling lightly as she gasped with disbelief, "Ji Yuan, I''m so disappointed in you. In this lifetime, I will never want to see you again as well."

    Yuan Ji gave a cold and bitterugh, "Pardon me for not seeing you off¡­"

    SMACK!!!

    "This p is for your heartlessness!"

    Ling Feiyue had pped Yuan Ji''s face hard as she puffed out coldly. She was trembling and her fingers were trembling even harder. It was as though she had just pped herself. But in actuality, it was her heart that was trembling emotionally with all the hurts.

    Yuan Ji had actually seen her ping but he had made no attempt to dodge it.

    "Now you can leave?" Yuan Ji said coldly and his stares were equally as cold.

    "Hmph!" Ling Feiyue had shed out of sight.

    Yuan Ji was trembling lightly because just before she had left, her warm tears had dripped on his hands.

    He lifted his hands to stare at her warm tears beforementing quietly. "Feiyue, this is for your own good. I don''t want to ruin you and that''s why I must be cruel to you. I hope that you can forget about me. It is better that I have hurt you now rather thanter¡­"

    "Feiyue, you will always have a ce in my heart. I don''t mind if I don''t have a ce in your heart. My next undertaking will be very dangerous and if you help me, you may lose your life as well." He added with a heavy sigh.

    Xiang Li appeared in his soul sea and she was asking him with a shocked look, "Why did you drive her away for? Can''t you tell that she likes you so much?"

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "You won''t understand. I am only making use of her to ovee the trials. My feelings for her are just a deception to further my own means."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "You can even lie to your heart. You arepletely hopeless. It is a good thing that I didn''t acknowledge you as my master yet." Xiang Li disappeared with an angry huff.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly.

    Just as he was about to get off the roof to retire to his room in the tavern, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had suddenly appeared on the roof.

    They were giggling, "So our Romantic Cultivator Yuan Ji has just broken a maiden''s heart?"

    Yuan Ji frowned bitterly, "You know?"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled, "We have already known that Young Master Ling Feiyang is a maiden."

    "Because she has a pleasant scent but we have only pretending otherwise." Hua Baiyue giggled softly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Don''t forget that we''re from the Hundred Flower Divine Flower. Our noses can pick all kinds of scents." Hua Baiyue added further.

    "So why did you want to drive her away for?" Hua Wuwu asked curiously. "Because you don''t want to involve her in our feuds?"

    Yuan Ji heaved a heavy sigh, "That''s right. Because I have two spies from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce here. There is no way for her to help me without the two of you knowing. If the two of you know, it is as good as telling the Hundred Flower Divine Pce as well. Moreover, it is just my personal duel with your Divine Pce Master. There is no need to involve her."

    Hua Baiyue giggled, "Sister, he is not so stupid after all. We should give him some credits."

    Hua Wuwuughed as she caressed his cheek, "Smart! You''re not so foolish after all. You have just saved the Spirit Blue Moon Sect from utter destruction."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he stared at Hua Wuwu, "How did you know who she is and where she is from?"

    Hua Wuwuughed as she covered her mouth with her long sleeves, "There are very few things that the Hundred Pce Divine Pce does not know."

    Then she looked at him with a smile, "So, did you manage to gain any cultivation resources in the trials that can aid you against our old master?"

    Yuan Ji frowned lightly, "Don''t you think that this is a little too shameless for you to ask me this question? Do you think that I will be so foolish to let you know my trump cards?"

    Hua Wuwuughed before asking him, "So have you decided what your next course of action is?"

    Yuan Ji replied honestly, "I am going to find a way to get Xue Qianxue out of the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Hua Wuwu giggled, "And how are you going to do that? Do you expect us to help you?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I''ve actually included the two of you in my ns. Who knows the Celestial Orthodox Sect better than the two of you?"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled as she rolled to and fro, her eyes were beaming teasingly. "And you expect us to help you? You must be¡­dreaming."

    p Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You are not afraid that I may die in my attempt?"</anda>

    Hua Wuwu giggled, "If you die, that is your business. We are not your tools. Why should we help you in the first ce?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he sighed heavily, "It is so true. I guess that I have to crack my brains overnight for a way to make the two of you help me."

    He turned to look at the two of them, "You are really not helping me?"

    Hua Wuwu hummed coldly, "You are too shameless."

    Sheughed as she gently caressed his face with her fingers, "Does your face still hurts? She must have pped you so hard. You are actually pretty dashing. It will be such a pity if you were to die. We can actually offer you a way out."

    All of a sudden she had lowered her voice shyly, "You can treat me as Ling Feiyue."

    Hua Baiyue whispered in his other ears, "You can treat me as Xue Qianxue."

    Yuan Ji gulped as he switched his eyes to and fro between the two saintesses. "Are they seducing me?" He thought weakly.

    "Or do you think we are not as lovely as Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue?" Hua Wuwu smiled angelically.

    Yuan Ji was forced to admit, "Actually the two of you are really very lovely."

    Hua Baiyue blew softly in his ears, "I can tell you that without our help, you will never be able to seed in rescuing Xue Qianxue. And if you can please us, we can even offer you some tips to ovee our old master. Or else even if you have seeded in rescuing Xue Qianxue, you will still die in four months'' time."

    Yuan Ji muttered weakly, "You will be willing to betray your old master?"

    Hua Baiyue smiled as she winked at him, "All we need is just a little of your vital energies." At the same time, she had also nced quietly at Hua Wuwu who responded with a light smile.

    Yuan Ji frowned when he had heard that they required his vital energies. So it really was true that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce practiced a form of dual cultivation. It was because only the evil dual cultivation could extract the vital energies of another.

    Vital energies or spirit essences of a cultivator was extremely precious. It was because it was used to gain cultivation realm level and it could be used to produce the profound energies that profound strength required.

    The loss of vital energies could even cause the cultivation''s realm level to decline and it was extremely difficult to cultivate back.

    Sometimes when a cultivator was dying, vital energies could even be expended to keep the vital breath of the dying cultivator going.

    Yuan Ji had always thought that Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were the cultivation melting cauldrons of their sect. So it seemed that the rumors of the fraternity were true after all.

    Hua Wuwu giggled, "It is only a night of passion. You won''t lose so much as to drop in your cultivation realm level. After all, you are a saint. Even if you bed us for a whole month, you will still be able to take it."

    Yuan Ji smiled as he shook his head, "I must thank the two saintesses for your kind offer¡­"

    "Ji Yuan." Hua Baiyue suddenly whispered in his ears.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly rigid. How did they know who he was?!

    "We know more about you than you know about the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. If you are unable to turn up for your duel with our old master, he may order us to ughter everyone from your Orthodox Sword Sect and the Emperor Hall Sect. We know that you don''t care about the Emperor Hall Sect but what about the Orthodox Sword Sect? Can you bear the destruction of the spiritual tablets of all your patriarchs? You will be a great sinner to your sect then."

    Yuan Ji had suddenlyughed as he grabbed the two saintesses'' small waists, "Actually how can I have the heart to allow the two beauties to be lonely? Why don''t we go to my room?"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled softly, "You are not so stupid after all."

    "He is definitely not stupid." Hua Baiyue winked at Yuan Ji with an alluringly smile.

 Chapter 68 Night Of Temptation (2)

    Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now rolling in the bed that was in Yuan Ji''s room.

    The room waspletely voided of light because they did not need any light to see.  After all, they were all the cultivatiors of the highest realm level with the Darksee ability. It was an ability that all the cultivators could gain at the middle tier of the fourth realm immortal celestial level.

    With expert fingers, Yuan Ji had loosened their silk belts and they had also loosened his.

    In a blink of an eye, Yuan Ji had removed all their outer garment except for their lingeries as he threw their skirts, robes, socks and inner garments off the bed.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now gasping with anticipations as they proceeded to remove Yuan Ji''s clothing at the same time.

    Yuan Ji grinned as he pulled off their lingeries before keeping it into his spatial ring.

    Next he proceeded to fondle their ample bosoms and backs; their bodies were really silky smooth with a wondrous fragrance.

    "Ah~~~" They were moaning with delight when Yuan Ji had suddenly squeezed their perky bosoms hard.

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am so lucky to have a chance to bed two such wondrous beauties."

    In no time he had also pulled down their undies and he was feeling them the smoothness of their butts before his fingers were feeling their forbidden cherries between their legs. It was soapy wet and they were now flustered with ecstasy.

    "Ah~~~"

    "Aww~"

    Slowly he used his fingers to peel open their folds underneath and he was fingering them¡­

    Either he or Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had realized that Ling Feiyue had quietly entered the courtyard of the room.

    Ling Feiyue''s eyes were still bleary red as she entered the courtyard.

    She had not left yet because she still did not believe that Yuan Ji could be so heartless to her. She had clearly felt his sentimental concerns for her during the trials. This could not be faked. Moreover he had also created a poem specifically for her. Also if they did not have such perfect synergy, will they be able to create abine profound art that they can use together?

    Therefore she wanted to confront Yuan Ji onest time to hear his difficulties.

    "Maybe he didn''t want to put me in a tight spot¡­"

    "Maybe he knows that he may not survive the duel¡­"

    She was frantically looking for an excuse for him...

    But when she had just stepped into the courtyard, her divine senses could pick up a couple of soft moans and whispers.

    "Ah~~ I''m so wet now¡­"

    "Handsome Yuan Ji, stop teasing us already¡­"

    "Hubby Yuan Ji, can you dedicate a poem for us?"

    "Sure, sure!" Yuan Ji wasughing softly.

    Ling Feiyue was a great saintess of the highest tier. Therefore her divine sense could pick up a range that was further than Yuan Ji, Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu, without alerting them.

    When she had heard what they were doing, she gasped silently as she burst into uncontroble silence tears.

    "Ji Yuan, you rather have them than me¡­why¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "You...really dislike me?"

    "It is not because you don''t want to hurt me but because you really making use of me?"

    Ling Feiyue leaned quietly on the wall as she sobbed silently. It took her a while to calm down before she took off tearfully, "From today onward, there is no more Ling Feiyang. There is only Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue who will be the demoness of the orthodox fraternity¡­I will not have any lofty dreams of being an orthodox cultivator anymore..."

    When she had left, there was arge patch of tears on the ground where she hadst stood; Ling Feiyue had been thoroughly hurt and she had never been so grieved before.

    A quiet shadow was sighing softly and had appeared where Ling Feiyue hadst stood¡­

    Unknown to even Ling Feiyue, there was another person that was quietly watching in the courtyard. Even with Ling Feiyue''s formidable divine sense, this quiet shadow was invisible to her.

    Yuan Ji, Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu naturally did not know what was going on outside. Their divine senses were diminished because all their focuses were on one another.

    Yuan Ji was now frowning in secret and he had a perplexed look. "They are still pure? I can''t be wrong. But what the heck is their dual cultivation if they are still pure?!"

    He was a little bewildered but this did not have any impact on his quiet ns.

    All of a sudden he had pped their butts and kicked them down the bed with a soft chuckle. "I am going to bed now. You may have the floor."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were shocked as they questioned him, "Why did you kick us down the bed for? You don''t want to save Xue Qianxue anymore? You don''t want to know the weakness of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce anymore?"

    Yuan Ji grinned at them, "Naturally I will still want to save Xue Qianxue and the two of you will help me. As for the weakness of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, I actually did not want to know because I want to win fair and square."

    The second part was of course true. Yuan Ji really wanted to win fair and square or else he would not have attained as a Sword Saint.

    Hua Wuwu hummed coldly, "Dream on! You didn''t pleasure us so why should we help you at all?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled softly before he said in a low voice, "Do you want me to show your lingeries to your old master? If I do, can you imagine what your fates will be? Don''t tell me that your old master will not recognize your scents and your lingeries?"

    Hua Baiyue was startled as she stammered, "Don''t¡­you will get us killed¡­"

    Hua Wuwu had also turned ashen, "Yuan Ji! You are so badass! You will rather have rotten apples than fresh apples!"

    "Sister, let''s go." Hua Baiyue said as she gathered her clothing.

    Hua Wuwu nodded as she hastily put on her clothing.

    "Yuan Ji, we won''t forget about this slight!" Hua Baiyue warned him.

    With that, they had hastily left his room.

    Yuan Jiughed after them before hey on his bed dreamily, "Now the night is finally peaceful again¡­"

    He was soon sighing before he muttered, "Not so peaceful¡­"

    It was because he was suddenly thinking of Ling Feiyue and was heart wrenched at how he had hurt her earlier. His thoughts had immediately shback to the day that he had first realized that Ling Feiyue was a maiden¡­

    That day, she was extremely breathtaking and he got a hard on just by listening to her beautiful tune that she was humming.

    Ling Feiyue''s lovable smiles were the most beautiful smile that he had ever seen. But he had now caused her to lose her smiles¡­

    "I hope that you will forget this hurt as soon as possible. I am not worthy of your time¡­"

 Chapter 69 New Plans

    Many dayster;

    Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were now on their way to the Holy Maiden Peaks.

    Along the way Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were really pissed off with Yuan Ji and they really showed it by their cold attitude toward him.

    Yuan Ji was not really bothered by their cold attitude but he was more amused that they were still willing to help him. It was because the information that they had dug for him was quite detailed.

    At the same time he really did not believe that they could be ckmailed by him.

    Hua Wuwu said to Yuan Ji, "This is what we have gathered from the nearby towns. The Celestial Orthodox Sect is holding their new sacred maiden ceremony in two months'' time. All the other six major righteous orthodox ns as well as dozens of influential celestial ns from the orthodox fraternity will be attending."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he said slowly, "Then this is indeed the best time for us to rescue Xue Qianxue. Who is going to be the next Sacred Maiden?"

    Hua Baiyue replied him, "It is Zhao Songjin. She will be the next Sacred Maiden."

    When she had said out her name, there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes. Obviously, she did not like Zhao Songjin very much.

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily, "Because of me, Xue Qianxue is now forced to give up her leadership position¡­"

    Hua Baiyue interrupted him softly, "Are you sure that you want to rescue her? Although this may be the best timing but it is also the most dangerous timing. They may allow Xue Qianxue toe out of her imprisonment to make the handover speech but to rescue her in front of the thousands of cultivators is not going to be easy at all."

    Yuan Ji replied firmly, "I will rescue her. I can''t allow her to suffer in that ce."

    Hua Wuwu said coldly, "Don''t say we didn''t warn you first. If you fail then you will die and if you die, we will ughter everyone in the Five Heavens Peaks."

    Yuan Jiughed softly, "If I die, you may die with me. If you have died with me, how do you ughter everyone in the Five Heavens Peaks?"

    Hua Wuwu was giggling all of a sudden, "Dream on! Did we say that we are helping you directly?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "You look much better if you are smiling, especially now."

    Hua Wuwu had suddenly be cold again, "Who is smiling? Who will bother to smile in front of you?"

    "My sister is onlyughing because of your foolish attempt to rescue Xue Qianxue." Hua Baiyue hummed coldly.

    Yuan Ji smiled before he said, "I need three invitations. One invitation is naturally for me and the other two invitation are for the two of you."

    "So now we are running errands for you?" Hua Wuwu frowned. She really could not believe that Yuan Ji could be so shameless as to assign errands to them.

    Even Hua Baiyue was muttering, "Why don''t you find the invitations yourself?"

    Yuan Ji replied nonchntly, "I will be a little buzy for the next two months."

    <o>,m Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ...</o>

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulder lightly before he said quietly, "Thank you."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue hummed coldly at him before they looked in the other way.

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "Actually you have lied about the Dual Cultivation, am I right? Because the two of you still have your chastity intact."

    All of a sudden Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were flustered and it showed in their rosy cheeks.

    He added, "Why did you lie to me for?"

    Hua Wuwuughed with a flushed look, "Who says we had lied to you? It is just that we never got a chance to practice dual cultivation with anyone yet."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "That is themest thing that I have ever heard, you know?"

    Hua Baiyue added with a flustered voice, "At least we are not as shameless as you. You stole our lingeries from us and even use it to threaten us into helping you. And you have even kicked us down the bed."<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "I''m sorry. Does your butt still hurt? At that time, I didn''t have any choice¡­"

    Hua Baiyue frowned softly, "You''re asking if our butt hurts after so many days? You''re too badass."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I know that the two of you are saintesses with a high level of attainment. Naturally your mental fortitude will be strong enough to take any setbacks. Therefore I can only ask if your butt hurts."

    Hua Baiyue: ¡­

    Hua Wuwu: ¡­

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was staring at them intently, "The two of you seems to be aware of my ns, am I right? You''re finding an excuse to help me on the sly? Because the dual cultivation story seems to be too forced."

    Hua Wuwu said coldly, "Who is helping you on the sly? It is because you have ckmailed us¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had shed their lingeries in front of them and said, "You can have your lingeries back now."

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ¡­

    Yuan Ji muttered bitterly, "It is because I don''t believe that you will betray the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. At the same time, I feel that you are trying to push me to go to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. I don''t know what your nefarious ns are. I don''t care what you will do to the Celestial Orthodox Sect or your other schemes. I only want to rescue Xue Qianxue. Do you get me? Therefore you don''t have to sacrifice your chastity or use your honey trap on me."

    He then added quietly, "There is still two months before the sacred maiden ceremony. I''m going to cultivate in the cave over there. Do you mind watching over me while I am cultivating?"

    Without waiting for them to reply him, Yuan Ji had walked with a heavy heart to the cave.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were exchanging quiet nces at each other and they were sighing softly.

    Hua Wuwu sighed heavily to her sister, "He is a good man¡­"

    Hua Baiyue nodded lightly, "Do you think that he suspects our mission?"

    Hua Wuwu shook her lightly, "I don''t think so."

    "He seems to have a heavy heart nowadays." Hua Baiyue said quietly.

    Hua Wuwu was suddenly flustered as she lowered her voice, "Sister, what if we have lost our chastity that night? What will you do?"

    Hua Baiyue had a flustered look and her ears hadpletely turned red hot, "I don''t know. I told you that this is a stupid n. Even if we lose our chastity, my hook or by crook we have to get him in one piece to the duel ce. That was what our Divine Pce Master had said to us. Do you think that our Divine Pce Master is serious about this? But luckily we didn''t lose anything¡­"

    Hua Wuwu interrupted her hastily, "Shhh, not so loud. Do you want to get killed?"

    Hua Baiyue was immediately looking at her surroundings nervously, "I''m just a little anxious. But at the very least it is now going ording to ns¡­"

    Hua Wuwu nodded, "Let''s hope so. He doesn''t seem to be the type that will quietly follow any ns. Remember a hundred years ago¡­"

    Hua Baiyue nodded, "Let''s drop our cold pretense on him. We need him to be in his tip-top form soon."

    Hua Wuwu protested weakly, "You are the one that is showing him the cold attitude. Not me!"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled awkwardly, "It is not me either. I am just following your lead. You are my older sister."

    Hua Wuwu frowned lightly, "I am just a little indignant that he didn''t take us. What is wrong with his eyes? He has eyes but he can''t see that he have two lovely saintesses in front of him. That is why I am unhappy."

    Hua Baiyue averted her eyes shyly, "Same here¡­"

    Hua Wuwu said with an apprehensive look, "Sister, we ought to be more careful from now onward. We mustn''t allow our personal feelings to ruin our mission. We can''t afford to fail our mission."

    Hua Baiyue nodded quietly, "We can''t question the Divine Pce Master. Don''t forget that Yuan Ji has a feud with our Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Even if we want to help him, we are powerless to do so."

    Hua Wuwu began to sigh heavily¡­

 Chapter 70 The Divine Heart Recite

    Yuan Ji was now holding onto the Divine Heart Recite cultivation scroll that he had obtained from the Lotus Sword Mansion.

    There were three stages to this Divine Heart Recite; the Absolute Spirits, the Undying Fighting Spirit and the Natural Instinct.

    He had since attained the Stage of the Absolute Spirits and he was going to cultivate the Stage of the Undying Fighting Spirit.

    Even before he had started on cultivating this stage, he felt that this was going to be an awesome heart intricate skill and there would only be advantages if he could attain this state of divinity into his cultivation heart.

    He began to examine the ten cultivation methods that were contained within the Divine Heart Recite cultivation scroll so he could find a cultivation method to begin with first.

    "So which one should I cultivate first?"

    He began to ponder slowly as his eyes scanned the cultivation methods again and again.

    Heaven, Earth and Mortal as One.

    Perfect Heartbeat.

    Awakened Seventh Sense.

    Three-in-One Reflex.

    Attunement to the Spiritual Aura.

    Divine Sense Revtion.

    Profound Energies Attunement.

    Immortal Body.

    Supreme Soul Force.

    Spirit Perceptions.

    After some pondering, he decided to go for the Perfect Heartbeat first since he already had a solid foundation in it.

    Time slowly passed and he had mastered it. He was now able to feign his death perfectly by stopping his heart and he could even derived more profound strength by strengthening his heart beat. There were also a whole list of benefits that could be associated with the Perfect Heartbeat.

    Next he decided to have a go at the cultivation method of the Attunement to the Spiritual Aura. It was because he had figured out that this was necessary for him to understand the Heaven, Earth and Mortal as One cultivation.

    Time passed and soon he had mastered the Attunement to the Spiritual Aura.

    Next he worked on the Profound Energies Attunement and the Divine Sense Revtion.

    Again, he managed to cultivate it sessful into his innate ability.

    "So I will now be able to master the Heaven, Earth and Mortal as one?"

    To his delight, his attempt was sessful and he soon acquired attained the Heaven, Earth and Mortal as One.

    "So should I try to attain the Undying Fighting Spirit stage of the Divine Heart Recite now?"

    To dismay, after a few days of trying, he had actually failed.

    He was soon frowning.

    "Where did I go wrong?"

    Once again he began to check the ten cultivation methods again.

    "Was it the spirit perceptions or the immortal body?" He was unsure now.

    Finally he took a gamble on the spirit perceptions.

    To his delight, it was the correct one.

    After many weeks of cultivating, he had managed to attain divine state of divinity of the Undying Fighting Spirit that was from the Divine Heart Recite.

    His divine sense, profound energies flow and profound strength seemed to have improved as well. The speed in which he could gather his profound strength to execute his sword arts was now faster by 30%. This was a tremendous increase!

    His left hand could now be twice as fast while his right hand was four times faster than his normal attacking speed.

    He had also found out that his speed of cultivation had also increased by 100% and he could now cultivate twice as fast!

    To a cultivator, the state of divinity is more important than profound arts because it could expanded upon their spiritual boundaries, enabling them to reach enlightenment and a higher realm level. However it had a main weakness; the state of divinity must be maintained constantly or it would be broken and the cultivator would suffer a bacsh.

    As long as he can maintain the Undying Fighting Spirit as his constant state of divinity, he would find renew strength and willpower to keep on fighting. It would be extremely useful to him because his uing duel would determine his life and death.

    The third stage of the Divine Heart Recite was the Natural Instinct. He found himself struck in the mysteries of the ''Mortal Suffering''. Unable to figure out this insight and moreover since time was running out for him, he had decided to work on the third stage after he had rescued Xue Qianxue.

    Heughed silently before he called out to Xiang Li in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, did you see that? I havepleted the second stage of my Divine Heart Recite."

    "Hmph!" There was a soft hum by Xiang Li but she did not appear in his soul sea.

    "You''re still angry with me? What for?" Yuan Ji was frowning. "It has been so many months now."

    Xiang Li replied coldly, "Because you broke a maiden''s heart." Although she had replied to Yuan Ji but she did not show herself.

    This caused Yuan Ji to mutter, "I didn''t break your heart, you know." Then he said quietly, "I do love Ling Feiyue and it is for her own good. You may think otherwise but I don''t care."

    All of a sudden, he could now hear the voices that were outside the cave. It was actually from Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    He was startled that his divine sense and hearings were now so sharp that he could actually hear them quite audibly.

    "It has already been nearly two months since he had gone into the cave. What is taking him this long?"

    "There is still time." Hua Wuwu said quietly. "Give him three more days. If he doesn''te out in another three times then we just have to disturb his cultivation."

    "Do you think that he will be alright?" Hua Baiyue asked with a bitter sigh.

    "You mean will he be able to cultivate something in two months?" Hua Wuwu asked curiously.

    "Right. I am afraid that his efforts will be in vain. It is not possible for him to cultivate anything good in two short months. And I don''t see him practicing any profound arts." Hua Baiyue sighed softly.

    "Maybe he is just unlucky in the trials. After all, there are many cultivation experts in the trials¡­"

    "But he hadpleted the trials¡­"

    "Who knows if he has reallypleted the trials or he is just following Ling Feiyue?"

    "Right. He is so shameless that I feel that he will really do something like this."

    "He is the most shameless Sword Saint that I have ever seen¡­"

    "And he fancies himself as the Gentleman of the Sword¡­"

    Yuan Ji was frowning silently when he had heard them. "I am indeed the Gentleman of the Sword. If I am not a gentleman then I would have taken both your chastity that night."

    "Sister, shall we purposely drop him a cultivation art and say that we have found it? Best is, we let him find it himself and let him think that he is so lucky." Hua Baiyue suggested.

    "Yes, we should. Or else he is courting his own death."

    "But does he have the time to practice?"

    "We can drop him a few profound strokes that can be picked up in three days. What do you think sister?" Hua Baiyue suggested after a while.

    "That is a great idea, sister. We mustn''t let him know about it."

    Yuan Ji was startled that these two sister saintesses were actually so concern for him.

    He began to mutter, "Actually they aren''t that bad. It is just that we are on opposite sides. It will be nice if one day we can be friends."

    "Ahem!" He purposely coughed aloud from inside the cave.

    After he had made a sound, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were all smiles as they rushed inside the cave.

    "So, you have finished your cultivation?" Hua Wuwu asked him curiously before she chuckled softly. "We have got the invitation cards for you too."

    Yuan Ji was pleasantly surprised and he asked, "Where did you get the invitation cards from? Did you harm any poor souls?"

    Hua Wuwuughed softly as she waved her fists, "Of course not but they won''t be walking for a few months at the very least."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Hua Baiyue nodded delightfully, "Heh! You ought to thank us for going through all these troubles for you. Do you know that we have almost got killed because of your request?"

    "I believe your first ount but I don''t believe your second ount." Yuan Ji frowned. "Aren''t you standing well and good in front of me now? Where are your injuries?"

    Hua Baiyueughed with a flustered look, "My injuries are everywhere! Do you want to take a closer look?"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly as he shook his head, "No thanks. I believe you."

    Hua Baiyue hummed softly, "You''re so fake!"

    "Actually I am not only fake but also quite shameless." Yuan Jiughed.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were bothughing jovially, "We agree with youpletely on that."

    The three of them were allughing jovially together.

    After a while Yuan Ji began topose himself as he said earnestly to them, "Thank you for being my guardians for the past two months. I hope that you will help me for onest time."

    Hua Wuwu asked quietly, "What is it?"

    Yuan Ji smiled at the two sister saintesses as he said solemnly to them, "When the timees, I hope that you can help me to take away Xue Qianxue. I will distract them."

    Looking at Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were suddenly mncholy.

    Hua Wuwu said quietly, "If you die, don''t me us for ughtering everyone in the Five Heavens Peaks."

    Hua Baiyue in turn began to stare coldly at Yuan Ji, "Therefore you have better not died and you better have an exit n."

    "Although we are quite confident that we can rescue Xue Qianxue for you but that will cost us the element of surprise." Bai Wuwu added despondently. "As for you, it will be hard to rescue you in full view of the thousands of eyes. You should know what we mean."

    Yuan Ji smiled as he looked quietly at them. He had realized that it was their way of telling him not to die in his rescue attempt.

    He suddenly asked, "How long have we known each other now?"

    Hua Wuwu pondered briefly before answering, "Mm, almost four months?"

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly, "That is right. Almost four months now. The duel is only a month away."

    When he had said that, they were suddenly very quiet and their countenances had also be still.

    Yuan Ji lit a slow smile, "Four months is enough to be friends, am I right? So are we friends?"<sub> </sub>

    Hua Wuwu inhaled deeply, "Friends?" But she was soon nodding lightly.

    Hua Baiyue muttered softly, "We are friends?" She had soon smiling, "Yes, we are friends! Why not?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Good! Why don''t we head to the nearest tavern to have a drink then?"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled softly, "First to be drunk shall pay for the tabs!"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "You''ve better prayed that I will get drunk first. Never say I didn''t warn you first. I may do something funny if the two of you are drunk."

    Hua Baiyueughed softly, "If you got the courage to flirt with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and is not afraid to lose your head then you can try."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Seriously, I am really not afraid because I am going to be a dead man soon and I can now do the most outrageous thing."

    -

    Soon they were already in a private room of the tavern and were drinking heartily.

    "Toast!" Yuan Ji said aloud as he raised his cup to deliver a toast to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    "Heh! A toast to our new friendship!" Hua Baiyue chuckled softly.

    "Mm, temporary friendship." Hua Wuwuughed. "Because a dead man will soon no longer have any friends!"

    Yuan Jiughed heartily. "A toast to our temporary friendship then!" He did not mind what Hua Wuwu had said as he had already known that Hua Wuwu was usually the more sarcastic of the two sisters while Hua Baiyue was actually the friendlier and the butt of most of his teases. It was also because Hua Wuwu as the older sister was not a pushover too.

    They had spent many hours drinking and eventually they got a little tipsy.

    However they were actually far from drunk because they were all golden celestials with the ability to purge out the drinks from their body with just their profound energies.

    In order to get drunk, the wines had to be spiritual rich wines that would be difficult for them to purge quickly.

    However the wines in this tavern were really poor quality ones and was like water to them. It was next to impossible to get them drunk.

    The reason why they were tipsy was because they did not even bother to purge out the alcohol that were in the wines that they were drinking recklessly.

    Cups of wines soon be bowls of wines and it soon became entire jars of wines as it littered all over the table.

    They were soon all rosy red but they did not care and continued to drink.

    Suddenly Hua Baiyue asked Yuan Ji, "Why didn''t you bed us when you have the opportunity?"

    Yuan Jiughed awkwardly, "Because I don''t want to be murdered by the two of you in the next morning."

    "No sister, it''s not because he is afraid of getting murdered by us. You should know his guts by now. Do you think that he is really afraid of us? He can be so shameless as to make use of us all the time to do his errands for him. The truth is, he is a eunuch!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Hua Baiyue nodded with a soft chuckle, "Yes, he must be a eunuch or else why he only dares to tease us but he did not dare to put in any action."

    Yuan Ji was frowning, "I must warn you first. Don''t provoke me. Can we change to another topic?"

    "He didn''t even dare to touch us, will he dare to touch Ling Feiyue? It was no wonder that Ling Feiyue had left us without even saying good bye." Hua Wuwu giggled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I did touch the two of you down there, you know¡­" Yuan Ji protested weakly.

    "You call that touching?" Hua Baiyue stared at him beforeughing softly. "It is only child y."

    "Yuan Ji, do you have the balls to really touch us? Or is it because your handle is too small?" Hua Wuwu fingered her cup in front of him.

    Yuan Ji warned them with a frown. "Enough already¡­" He could feel his hard earn state of divinity, the Undying Fighting Spirit was now taking a severe beating from the two of them. He had spent two months toprehend this great Dao and now they were destroying it in a drinking session¡­

    "You did say that he is a eunuch, sister. Have you forgotten?" Hua Baiyueughed. Then she pointed at Yuan Ji, "Eunuch! Eunuch!"

    "Ball-less eunuch!" Hua Wuwu emphasized as sheughed after her sister.

    "That is why Ling Feiyue has left him¡­because he is¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was seized by his Undying Fighting Spirit as he grabbed the two of them, "After I have done with the two of you, I see how you are still able to call me a eunuch."

    He had grabbed them or he would soon vomited out blood of bad energies because he could feel that he was losing his hard earn attained Undying Fighting Spirit and that his Great Dao was now suffering a bacsh.

    "Don''t worry Ji Yuan¡­" He said to himself. "These two saintesses will struggle anyway. They are not stupid."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were startled when Yuan Ji had suddenly grabbed their waists and had carried them in his strong arms. It was because the Yuan Ji that they had known was cool to their constant taunts and would never be bothered by their contemptuous remarks.

    They did not know that Yuan Ji had undergone a change of state of divinity as he was practicing a new cultivation practice that required him to maintain his constant fearless fighting spirit in order to reach to a higher realm of divinity.

    But to Yuan Ji''s surprise, the two sister saintesses did not struggle and only taunted him further. "He must have a small handle and he is too shy to show us."

    "He is only a paper tiger. All shows and no actions¡­"

    "No wonder Ling Feiyue is so upset with him¡­"

    By now they had already noticed that mentioning Ling Feiyue seemed to have upset Yuan Ji further. Therefore they began to taunt him by mentioning her name.

    "Ling Feiyue is so peerless in her beauty. Not only he did not have any balls but he has no eye balls¡­"

    "He must be an impotent man so as to cause Ling Feiyue to walk off just like this¡­"

    Yuan Ji did not know why they did not struggle. It was because the two sister saintesses had also undergone a change of divinity after they were jostled up by Yuan Ji that night. Until now, they could still remember all his light touches and hard kicks. In their hearts, they had wanted to experience it again.

    What happened next in Yuan Ji''s room was totally unexpected to the three of them.

    Yuan Ji had expected for the two sister saintesses to take flight once he had started to strip them while the two sister saintesses were expecting for Yuan Ji to kick them down the bed again after a short tease.

    But neither of that happened and they were soon spending several hours battling against each other in the bed.

    Finally after many hours of vigorous battle, all three of them had now copsed on the bed and they were all looking at one another with a weird expression.

    The firm breasts of Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were all swollen red while their butts were also rosy, having been spanked by Yuan Ji for hundreds of times.

    The two sister saintesses were nibbling at Yuan Ji''s chest and holding his handle with their hands while Yuan Ji had his hands slipped between their silky white butts and he was caressing their wet cherries below.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly sighing heavily as he said gently to them, "Does it hurt? Your first time?"

    Hua Wuwu shook her head gently as she blew gently on his face, "Nothing has happened between us. Tomorrow, we are still friends¡­"

    Hua Baiyue nodded as she said mncholy, "It is because tonight is the full moon. There is no one to spy around us¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he asked curiously, "Who is spying on you?" He had a long standing suspicion that the reasons why Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu were so bold because there was an expert that was keeping tabs on them.

    "It is better for you not to know." Hua Baiyue said solemnly.

    Hua Wuwu said mncholy, "We just have to treat it as a beautiful dream tonight¡­"

    Just as Yuan Ji was about to say something, he  had noticed that Xiang Li was ying with her body in his soul sea and he had suddenly realized that Xiang Li was curiously looking at them for the entire night¡­

    His speechless thoughts were interrupted by Hua Wuwu who asked him quietly, "Normally you are so cool. Why did you¡­don''t tell me, you have some feelings for us?"

    Yuan Ji could not tell them that it was because he was cultivating his new trump card. Even though there was now an unspoken trust between them but every cultivator had their own secret trump cards and it was normal for them not to share with one another.

    He could only nod and said, "Yelp¡­"

    Xiang Li had suddenly interrupted him in his soul sea, "Why have the three of you stopped? Stop talking and¡­"

    Yuan Ji was frowning in his soul sea, "What are you? A peeping tom? Go away¡­we are in the middle of some indecent act¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled as she interrupted him indifferently, "You are not my master yet so you have no right tomand me. But aren''t you d that my anger is finally appeased?" She then began to mutter, "These two vixens really have such a lovely body. Why did the three of you stop now? Where are the actions?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He decided to ignore Xiang Li for the time being.

    Hua Wuwu had suddenly caressed him with trembling fingers, "I can lift my profound signatures from you and your consorts. Take them away and run as far as possible. You won''t be able to fight our old master."

    Hua Baiyue was startled, "Sister, the punishment for betraying your own sect is death!"

    "Sister, are you afraid of death?" Hua Wuwu asked her quietly.

    Hua Baiyueughed softly, "If my sister is not afraid, I am not."

    Yuan Ji interrupted them with a soft chuckle, "I am not going anyway. Moreover I can''t bear to watch the two of you died in my ce. Whether I will lose or not, is still too early to be said. Who knows? Maybe it is your old master who will be in by my sword instead."

    Hua Wuwu said mncholy, "Even if you are a great saint, you won''t be able to defeat our old master. You have greatly overestimated your ability. So what if you''re a Sword Saint? My old master has three divine profound arts and even a celestial grade sword. It will just take a blink of an eye for you to be defeated."

    "I am not afraid." Yuan Ji said firmly. "There must be a way to win. Moreover no one can defeat me in a blink of an eye. Haha."

    Hua Baiyue said quietly, "There is a way to win and the way to win is not to ept the duel."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "How can this even be considered a way to win? If I don''t ept the duel then the lives of everyone will be forfeited."

    "No." Hua Baiyue said with trembling lips. "If you can find a fragment of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art then my old master will surely be willing to exchange it for your life and everyone else. But out of millions of trials, even obtaining a single fragment of this long lost profound art is extremely slim. My old master has obtained a single fragment of this cultivation profound art and had since formed the golden core. In this fraternity, my old master is invincible."

    Yuan Ji was suddenly stammering as he stared at Hua Baiyue, "What did you just say?"

    Hua Baiyue repeated herself, "In this fraternity, my old master is invincible¡­"

    "No, before this." Yuan Ji was stammering.

    "My old master has since formed the golden core?" Hua Baiyue murmured with a curious and puzzled look at him.

    Yuan Ji muttered bitterly, "You say your old master may be willing to cancel the duel if he can obtain a fragment of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art?"

    Hua Baiyue nodded curiously, "That is right. A few decades ago, my old master had obtained a fortuitous fragment. At that time, the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity was in great turmoil because of the appearance of a single fragment  of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. What is wrong?"

    Yuan Ji was now smiling bitterly. It was because he had already given Ling Feiyue theplete cultivation scroll of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. But even if he had a copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, he was unable to cancel the duel now.

    It was because he had since mastered the divine state of the Undying Fighting Spirit. If the duel was canceled because he had chickened out then it would cause his Great Dao to be blemished and even cause a bacsh on his cultivation realm.

    Hua Wuwu saw his expression and asked, "Is something wrong?"

    Yuan Ji could only say bitterly, "I wonder if there is a medicine for regrets? I may have learnt the wrong cultivation practice."

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ???

 Chapter 71 The Broken Down Temple (1)

    For the next few days, Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue could see thousands of cultivators that were making their way to the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    In the skies above, there were also the daily sights of hundreds of cultivators that were on their flying mounts as they flew above them.

    Yuan Ji knew that the cultivators that were on the flying mounts were all either high level cultivators or rich cultivators that could afford a flying mount.

    The Deste Celestial Fraternity was a vast divine realm. Some of the cultivators were from the faraway celestial ns and they could only reach the Holy Maiden Peaks on time if they had a flying mounts.

    After all, all the seven major orthodox ns owned hundreds of miles of mountainous territories and were situated quite faraway from one another. Even though they had three months to prepare for the uing sacred maiden ceremony but it was just too far for many of the celestial ns to reach on time.

    Take the Celestial Orthodox Sect for example, almost the entire Holy Maiden Peaks that consisted of no less than three hundred mountain peaks were the forbidden ground of the Celestial Orthodox Sect even though in reality, only around thirty peaks were actually upied. If one was to traverse all the mountains of the Holy Maiden Peaks, it would take a month even if the cultivator was a seventh realm expert.

    One day Hua Wuwu said quietly to Yuan Ji, "We will take a long detour from the main path."

    Yuan Ji asked curiously, "What for?"

    Hua Wuwu averted her eyes before she walked quietly away, "You shall know very soon. It seems there will be an interesting show tonight."

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly after her before he took a quiet nce at Hua Baiyue who pretended to look the other way as well.

    Ever since that fateful rendezvous night together, there was a subtle change in their attitude toward one another.

    Yuan Ji knew that they had revealed too much information to him already and for that, he was extremely grateful to them.

    Earlier Hua Wuwu had disappeared briefly and he knew that she had disappeared to receive her instructions.

    He made no attempt to follow her or to question her. It was because it was totally unnecessary.

    If he followed her then he would only alert the super exponent that had been following them and he would only cause more troubles for Hua Wuwu.

    He did not question Hua Wuwu or tease Hua Baiyue and asked them why because he wanted to save them the headache of finding an excuse.

    There was now an unspeakable trust that was between them.

    Although it appeared that they were all not speaking to each other but their eyes were always silently looking at each other.

    Even when Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were pretending to chat with each other, they would discreetly take a quiet forlorn look in Yuan Ji''s direction.

    Yuan Ji had said to them that night, "I do not ask for you to betray your sect for my sake. But if I am able to defeat your old master then I will return your freedoms to you and I will take you away."

    Although it was a just a few short sentences, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were deeply touched by him and their hearts had melted in front of him.

    Yuan Ji had also realized these two sister saintesses had been secretly helping him all this while. Even though they had appeared reluctant to help him but they was really helping him wholeheartedly each time. It was just that they did not want him to abuse them so they would purposely protest now and then so damper his spirits.

    Eventually they could only mutter a clue for him, "Even for us, we don''t know what our old master''s intentions are. We are not privy to the upper echelons. In the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, we can only adhere to the strictest wishes of the upper echelons."

    "If you did not steal from the Hundred Flower Divine Flowers then we wouldn''t be enemies." They could only say bitterly as such to him.

    Yuan Ji waspletely quiet on that and he could only swallow this bitter pill in silence. It was because he really did not steal the Blue Divine Flower from the Hundred Flower Divine Flower. He had no intention of betraying Xia Jiajia. It was only because of this Blue Divine Flower that the chastity of his Yan''Er was protected. So how could he me Xia Jiajia for stealing it?

    Hua Wuwu led their group through several deste mountains and valleys that were far away from the main mountain path. As a matter of fact, the deste forests and mists were so thick that they had even encountered several dozens of deste beasts that were in the vicinity.

    But because they were all golden saints, they quickly shed to safety.

    "Are we reaching soon? It is almost night fall soon." Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    Hua Wuwu replied, "Soon, I think." Her eyes were checking quietly for her sect''s marking that only the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce could recognize. The markings were really discreet and it was just some random three pebbles with a flower petal under one of the pebbles. Most cultivators would think that it was just some random marking.

    Yuan Ji was not a fool and he knew that the two sister saintesses were checking for their sect''s marking. So he had also spent some time trying to find out what their sect''s marking looked like. To his dismay, it was too discreet for him to notice.

    Hua Baiyue chuckled softly when she saw his expression. It was because she knew what Yuan Ji was trying to do.

    It was a quiet battle of wits between them.

    After a whileter they hade to a broken down temple with a small pavilion that was hidden in the mountains.

    Hua Wuwu smiled, "It seems that we have found it. Be sure we do not leave our tracks behind."

    Yuan Ji and Hua Baiyue nodded with a wry smile; with their lightless profound art, they could even walk lightly on the grass. Naturally there would be no tracks that would be left behind.

    It was an old abandoned temple that was dedicated to the Great God Pangu, the creator of the Three Known Realms.

    As they shed inside, Hua Wuwu said quietly. "Let me check for a good spot to hide. Stay here."

    Yuan Ji nodded and he did not follow her. It was because he knew that Hua Wuwu was merely following her sect''s markings and she did not want him to see anything that was damaging to the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. For that, he had respected her. It was because she had already revealed too much to him and he did not want to ce the two sister saintesses into a tight spot.

    He was just a little curious why would they bring him here?<sub> </sub>

    And what was this show about?

    What would anyone be in this broken down temple in the middle of nowhere and moreover the vicinity was overrun with ferocious deste beasts?

    They soon found a good spot that was hidden between two statues that were on a higher elevated ground than the main hall of the abandoned temple.

    Yuan Ji quick eyes saw that this hidden spot had already been cleaned free of dust by someone earlier and even afortable mat had been ced carefully on the ground.

    Hua Wuwu smiled to Yuan Ji, "We shall hide here and wait. It is a little cramp around here so we just have to squeeze and lie on the ground till the show starts."

    Hua Baiyue disyed an adorable wink at Yuan Ji as she whispered, "Your hands have better be clean. We are only here to watch the show and not to put up a show for you."

    "Or we will be forced to chop it off for you." Hua Wuwu warned him with a wry smirk.

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly. How did they know his intentions before he had even acted?

    "Alright¡­" He muttered as heid himself on the mat.

    Very quickly, Hua Wuwu wasying on his left side while Hua Baiyue was on his right side.

    They continued in this posture for many hours and now it was in the middle of the night.

    Yuan Ji was getting a little restless and even more so especially when he had with him two lovely beauties that were pressing him from both sides.

    Therefore his naughty fingers began to caress their backs.

    Seeing that they had no reactions, he began to finger his way down their butts, which caused Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue to flush hotly.

    But still, they continued to remain quiet.

    Just as Yuan Ji was about to lift their skirts up, he had heard a noise from the outside and he quickly stayed his fingers.

    Two masked figures with golden eyes had quickly shed into the temple. One was obviously a maiden while the other was a man. They quickly checked the ce and scanned it with their divine sense.

    After assuring that there were was no one around, the two masked figures began to chuckle softly.

    The masked manughed as he pulled off his veil from his handsome face, "No one will evere to this ce. We have already been here so many times."

    This handsome face also had a beautiful mustache and he looked like a refined young master.

    When Yuan Ji saw the face of this stranger, his fists had suddenly tightened. It was because he had recognized this hateful man!

    He muttered silently, "Jin Yilong!"

    He had almost forgotten about this man that he had always wanted to erase from his memories. It was because three hundred years ago, Jin Yilong had snatched the maiden of his heart away from him and had even humiliated him. At that time, he was only at the initial stage of the fourth realm immortal celestial level and Jin Yilong was a lofty peaked sixth realm golden supremacy.

    Unless Jin Yilong had a deadlock in his cultivation, he would already be a saint now.

    Now Jin Yilong had a formidable background. He was the young master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion, one of the seven major orthodox ns. So it was impossible for him not to be a saint by now. It was because the cultivation resources and wealth of the Mystic Profound Pavilion was the acknowledged number one in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity!

    Ever since that day he had lost the maiden of his heart to this yboy young master, Yuan Ji had a change of character; he had even be a little entric, growing his beard long and was even flirtatious. By the time he was a fifth realm golden celestial, he was already bedding saintesses that were two realms higher than him.

    However he had formed no attachments to these saintesses because there were no emotion attachments in the first ce and he did not want to be tied down by anyone. Moreover the hurt that Jin Yilong had afflicted to him was too great; Jin Yilong had forced him to watch them making love in front of him.

    Until to this day, he could not believe that the maiden of his heart would actually betray him for some minor cultivation resources!

    For a long time he had been made aughing stock. Even his best friend Guo Taiming had known about this little history of his.

    It was not until he had met Xia Jiajia that he felt that he could bury his hurt forever. It was because he did not really expect Xia Jiajia would actually agree to wait him for a hundred years and even gave him a pledge of her own.

    He was now smiling bitterly in his heart, "The old master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is really too cunning. He obviously knows my little history and he wants to dampen my fighting spirit with the sight of my most disliked person."

    All of a sudden his jaws dropped again when the masked maiden had removed her veil; it was because he had recognized her as the imminent Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin!"

    "What is she doing here?" He began to wonder but it did not take him long to know.

    It was because Jin Yilong was soon holding onto her waist as he kissed her passionately while he was loosening her belt. With a strong pull, he had caused her skirt to drop onto the ground¡­

    Yuan Ji had turned to stare nkly at Hua Wuwu. He could only say silently because if they had made any sound, these two seventh realm experts would be able to sense their presence immediately. "This is the show?!"

    Hua Wuwu seemed to know what he was saying and she returned him a light nod. But it was obvious that she was equally startled too. Although she knew there was a show going on but she did not know the details of this show!

    Hua Baiyue was covering her mouth and she seemed to be in shock too.

 Chapter 72 The Broken Down Temple (2)

    Jin Yilong hadpletely stripped himself naked and so was Zhao Songjin.

    The enchanting and beautiful Zhao Songjin was now kneeling in front of Jin Yilong and her bashful looks were now looking up at Jin Yilong. At the same time she was smiling shyly and her fingers were on Jin Yilong''s thighs.

    "Young Master¡­Jinlong¡­" She muttered softly as she looked with great sentiments into his eyes. But before she could see more, Jin Yilong had stuff her mouth and he was grinning. "Tonight, I shall y the future sacred maiden to my hearts'' content¡­"

    The beautiful figure of Zhao Songjin was really moving but when Yuan Ji saw the red butterfly taboo above her breast, he was greatly startled.

    It was because this little known taboo belonged to the upper echelons of the Evil Cultivation Pce which was one of the three unfathomable heretic pces of the Deste Celestial Pce. The other two pces were the Water Melody Pce and the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    The reason that Yuan Ji had known about it was because he had once identally ''bedded'' the Third Citadel Lord of the Evil Cultivation Pce who styled herself as Little Princess.

    It was an experience that he was not going to forget because he almost got his vital energies drained by her. That was when he was only a fourth realm cultivator and it took him all his wits to escape from her.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce was a heretic celestial n that practiced the evil dual cultivation profound art. It was mostly one sided and they would drain the vital energies of their victims to further their own cultivation.

    The reasons why the Evil Cultivation Pce was not a public enemy yet was because it was too mysterious and no one really know their whereabouts. Moreover the top cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce were all powerful cultivators.

    Even the Little Princess that Yuan Ji had encountered previously was a saintess. Luckily for Yuan Ji at that time, he was still considered a low level cultivator and it did not affect his cultivation progression too much.

    If it was not for the Little Princess taking a liking for him, he would long be dead because he would never be able to resist the cultivation strength of a seventh realm saintess at that time.

    But from his experiences with the Little Princess, he had recognized that the red butterfly taboo had represented the elite echelons of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    That was to say that this Zhao Songjin was actually a clever spy that was from the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    "So the Evil Cultivation is the dark force that is behind Qianxue''s downfall? So they n to take over the Celestial Orthodox Sect?"

    "Hmm, this make senses. The Celestial Orthodox Sect is an all-female cultivation sect with more than thirty saintesses and in the eyes of the evil dual cultivators, the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect is their most ideal cultivation partner."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had a cold shiver down his spine, "Zhao Songjin may not be the only spy from the Evil Cultivation Pce. There may be others too¡­"

    While Yuan Ji was pondering about his findings and was connecting the mysterious dots, the scene below them was getting extremely steamy and lewd.

    Jin Yilong was now ravaging Zhao Songjin with all kinds of positions and he was extremely brutal in his lust, bending Zhao Songjin in all kinds of awkward and lewd positions. He was not gentle to the future sacred maiden at all.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue werepletely flustered as they stared at the scene below with their watery eyes and even to the extent of covering their mouths with both hands.

    It was obvious that that they had never seen anything like this before.

    As for Yuan Ji, he was actually unaffected by the scene below as he could control his heartbeat. He was actually grinning silently, "Jin Yilong, Jin Yilong. You didn''t know that women with that red butterfly taboo cannot be touched? With your cultivation realm strength, you may not feel the shrinking of your realm boundaries but it is more than enough for your cultivation realm to be stagnant and you may not even know why. Haha. You may think that you are so smart enough to y her but she is actually the one that is ying you with her fingers."

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji could feel something weird going on around him. Both his hands were pulled by Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue to under their skirts and their soaking wet undies.

    The two sister saintesses were looking at him with pleading eyes for him to pleasure them.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly startled to see both their countenances were now so flushed.

    "This¡­" He blinked his eyes as he stared at them.

    He was not stupid so he gently nodded as he began to finger them. He knew that the scene below was too much for them to bear especially when they had just tasted the forbidden fruits of passion with Yuan Ji only just a few days ago.

    Below them, Jin Yilong was whispering to Zhao Songjin. "Aren''t you delighted that you will soon be the next sacred maiden?"

    Zhao Songjin chuckled softly, "I think that you will be the most delighted, am I right? When I have be the new sacred maiden and you will be esteemed sect master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion?"

    Jin Yilongughed coldly, "The Mystic Profound Pavilion is a big sect and the contesters to the sect master position are as many as a dozen."

    "But it won''t be an issue after you has announced to everyone that we are a couple? Am I right?" Zhao Songjin was smiling sweetly. "After all, if you can have the sacred maiden as a consort then your standings within the Mystic Profound Pavilion will immediately be outstanding. They may just decide to make you sect master because you''veted me."

    Jin Yilongughed jovially, "It seems that you are smart after all. That is precisely my intention. So have you got the Sacred Maiden Profound Art yet?"

    At the mention of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art, Zhao Songjin was indignant. "That Xue Qianxue still thinks that she is the sacred maiden. She says that she will only surrender the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to me only after the sacred maiden handover ceremony. Even our matriarch and grand elders can do nothing to persuade her because she said that this is the unbroken sacredw."

    "Hehehe. Just be patience and wait a few days. It will soon be yours." Jin Yilong smiled. "You have already waited for so many centuries to be the sacred maiden. Finally this position is yours. Just a few days more only and you can''t wait?"

    Zhao Songjin hummed coldly, "I just don''t want the things that will soon be mine to be in her hands."

    Jin Yilong lowered his voice to ask, "I am still a little curious. Why did Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue wants to give up her position as sect leader in her prime?"

    "What?" Zhao Songjin said unhappily, "Are you one of the young masters that are going after her as well? So I am merely your recement for her?"

    Jin Yilongughed, "You are jealous?"

    "Let me tell you then. Xue Qianxue is actually a slut!" Zhao Songjinughed coldly before adding, "She was caught in the middle of an act by the elders and hadpletely disgrace the entire Celestial Orthodox Sect! The matriarch is so angry that she has decided to remove Xue Qianxue as our sect''s sacred maiden. What sacred maiden? She is nothing but a slut!"

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he stopped what he was doing to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. He scolded her silently, "You are a slut as well!"

    Jin Yilongughed, "Good. I like sluts. I really didn''t know that Xue Qianxue is such a maiden. Do you think that you can arrange for me to¡­"

    He did not have to spell it out aloud for Zhao Songjin who understood immediately. She giggled softly, "If my future lord can pleasure me well tonight then I can create an opportunity for you to y with Xue Qianxue. After all, I will be the new sacred maiden then and all the prot¨¦g¨¦s will have to listen to me."

    "Why is that you seem to be more eager than me?" Jin Yilong smiled lecherous at her while sweeping his eyes around her naked body at the same time. "You want to humiliate her?"

    There was a delightful expression that reflected on Zhao Songjin''s eyes as she smirked with contempt, "She has always been proud and been disdainful of me. Frankly speaking, I didn''t expect her to be so crazy with that man and this gives me the perfect handle that I have been waiting for so many centuries."

    "Hehehe." Jin Yilong''s eyes were already brimming with lust and he was now imagining that he was doing Xue Qianxue. But he quickly focused his thoughts to ask curiously, "I am just curious. Who is this man that can cause Xue Qianxue to lose her mind?"

    "Just some handsome cultivator. He is actually quite handsome looking,e to think of it. Even I feel a little tempted by him." Zhao Songjin disyed a mysterious smile when she said that but she quickly said. "You don''t have to know who he is. It is because he is just a nameless person and he is dead now."<sub> </sub>

    "Good that he is a dead now." Jin Yilongughed heartily.

    When Yuan Ji heard him, he cursed him silently. "My foot! I am still alive and well."

    Zhao Songjin said quietly to him as she urged Jin Yilong, "It is gettingte now. You should go now. I shall see you at my ceremony."

    Jin Yilong gave her onest caress before grinned, "See you soon."

    After Jin Yilong had left, Zhao Songjin had only just put on her robe and she was sweeping her nces around her. "If you have seen enough, why don''t youe out now?"

    Yuan Ji was startled. Had they been discovered?

    Did he curse that Jin Yilong too loudly in his head that she had heard him?

    Even Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue also had a look of guilt on their flushed countenances. They did not know if they had identally moaned too loud when Yuan Ji was fingering them or their light trembling had alerted Zhao Songjin.

    In any case, they were extremely reluctant to get up because they were really in no condition to do so!

    Yuan Ji saw their shy looks and he immediately understood.

    Just as he was about to surrender himself, a most stunning maiden with the look of an bewitching vixen had suddenly walked into the temple with a soft giggle. Her figure was really extremely enticing and the lust in Yuan Ji''s heart had quickly surfaced. But he was soon frowning unhappily and the lust in his heart had also quickly dissipated.

    It was because he had recognized her.

    She was ''Little Princess!"

    Yuan Ji was stunned. He had never known her real name because that was what everyone had called her while he was her prisoner.

    "I wonder who it is. So it is Little Princess." Zhao Songjin was suddenly smiling. "My greetings to Little Princess."

    Little Princess smiled as she scanned her eyes around. "My good sister. You don''t have to be so polite. In the future, you will be Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin. Even my father and I will have to show you some faces."

    Zhao Songjin said politely, "Little Princess is really too polite to me. I dare not have any second thoughts. Moreover Little Princess has always treated me as your good sister. Once I have be the sacred maiden, I will surely reveal the cultivation methods of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to Little Princess."

    "I am so d that you have remembered this." Little Princess chuckled softly. Then she grew a little solemn, "Do you know that you have been followed?"

    It was not only Zhao Songjin who was startled but Yuan Ji as well.

    He was actually thinking, "Crap! She knows¡­"

    Even Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were rmed.

    They all knew that Zhao Songjin was a middle-tier seventh realm saintess. As for this Little Princess, her air was even more superior to Zhao Songjin. Therefore she may also be a seventh realm saintess.

    Yuan Ji actually knew that Little Princess was a seventh realm saintess three hundred years ago. With her cultivation speed, she may even be a middle-saint or an upper tier saintess by now.

    Therefore if they want to silence the three of them, it may not be that difficult. After all the Evil Cultivation Pce also had their own divine profound arts. Moreover Little Princess seemed like someone important that even Zhao Songjin was polite to.

    "Who are they? Are they still around?" Zhao Songjin said with great rm. She was really afraid that her affair with Jin Yilong would be found out. Although the Celestial Orthodox Sect did not forbid marriages but she could not reveal her liaison with Jin Yilong before the ceremony. It was because she was deemed the most pure maiden and that was why the matriarch had chosen her to be the sacred maiden.

    Little Princess merely said, "It is safe now. I have sparred and driven off that person off already. The Hundred Flower Divine Pce seems to be on our tailtely. We must be extra careful."

    "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce?" Zhao Songjin frowned lightly. "They seem to be everywhere nowadays. I have heard that the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is having a duel with that Yuan Ji in a month time. Maybe because it is not happening and that is why the Hundred Flower Divine Flower is now poking into our affairs?"

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "There is no medicine for regrets now. You have rmed the Hundred Flower Divine Pce by insisting on silencing that idiot Yuan Ji. Now because of this Yuan Ji, we have to be wary of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Yuan Ji was muttering to himself, "What did I do exactly?"

    But he was also thinking, "So there is really an expert from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce that is always following us around?"

    Zhao Songjin heaved a heavy sigh, "We thought that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce did not know that Yuan Ji had visited the Celestial Orthodox Sect. Therefore we had thought that silencing him was the best option. We did not think that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would actually send two seventh realm saintesses to take his corpse away."

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "The Hundred Flower Divine Pce has always been vengeful. You screw up the duel with their old master and it seems that they may try to screw up your ceremony. You are just lucky that I am here tonight."

    Zhao Songjin humbly said, "I am really grateful to Little Princess tonight. If it isn''t for Little Princess, my deeds will surely be discovered. It does seem that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is just so and so only. Maybe the reputation of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is an exaggeration. It may be the time for us to move against the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    Little Princess interrupted coldly, "You really think that I have bested that person from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    "The divine profound art of Little Princess is iparable¡­"

    But before Zhao Songjin could finish singing her praises, Little Princess interrupted coldly. "My profound strength is actually weaker than that person. Luckily for me, that person was only interested to flee the scene and that''s why."

    p Zhao Songjin was looking startled. After a short while of rm, she asked with a perplexed look. "It is impossible, right? Little Princess is a great saintess¡­"</anda>

    Little Princess smiled coldly, "That person happened to be a seventh realm sacred saint too. It seems that the rumors are true after all. That fragment of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art is actually put to good use by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Zhao Songjin smiled awkwardly, "No matter how formidable the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is, they wouldn''t dare toe disturb my sacred maiden ceremony. The number of seventh realm experts alone is enough to wipe out the Hundred Flower Divine Pce many times over!"

    Little Princess returned a mesmerizing smile, "Is that so? Maybe you are right. The Hundred Flower Divine Pce has always been mysterious and unless it fits into their grand scheme of things, they won''t even be bothered to show up. But if they do show up then they can''t me the Evil Cultivation Pce for opposing them."

    "Indeed." Zhao Songjin was smiling as she walked out with Little Princess.

    Yuan Ji, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue did not dare to be careless. They waited for some time before they deemed that it was safe before they emerged from their hiding ce.

    Before they had left the abandoned temple, Yuan Ji saw that there were tworge patch of water on the mat.

    But he was smart enough to keep quiet about it before he sneaked away with the two sister saintesses.

 Chapter 73 Ji Yuan (Extra 1)

    Three hundred years ago;

    A cultivator by the name of Ji Yuan was walking drunkenly in the streets and he was knocking into one person after another.

    He had never been so drunk before as a matter of fact and it was not because there was a happy asion that caused him to drink more than the usual.

    Earlier today when he was meeting his sweetheart in the mountain wilderness, his sweetheart had brought along a man by the name of Jin Yilong who was a golden celestial.

    He was quite startled when he saw Jin Yilong.

    Just as he was about to ask his sweetheart who this man was, she had said to him. "Ji Yuan, you''re a good man and your future is limitless. But we are from two different worlds. I''ve finally found the man of my heart and he is Young Master Jin Yilong."

    Ji Yuan was shocked beyond words as he stammered, "Did he force you to say these words? I can protect you. My Orthodox Sword Sect has some influences in these parts and moreover I have many cultivation brothers from half a dozen celestial sects who will be willing to back me. Don''t be afraid of this golden celestial. So what if he is a golden celestial?"

    "Ji Yuan, you''re mistaken. I am in love with him. Do you know that he is the Young Master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion?" She replied calmly.

    "I''m no longer your Brother Ji Yuan? You used to call me Brother Ji Yuan¡­" Ji Yuan stammered. He turned and began to stare nkly at Jin Yilong, "Because he is rich? So you have chosen him?"

    "No, because I''m truly in love with him and he is a good man too. It is after a long and conflicting consideration that I''ve finally decided to choose Young Master Jin Yilong. Please understand that this has been a most difficult decision for me to arrive." She insisted.

    Jin Yilongughed, "We may have only met yesterday but this little beauty has alreadypletely won my heart."

    "Moreover my father has already approved of our rtionship." She returned a gentle smile as she looked lovingly at Jin Yilong.

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "You have only met yesterday and you have already decided to go with him?!"

    Jin Yilong had suddenly grabbed his former sweetheart by her waist andughed, "That''s right. Moreover she is already my woman."

    Ji Yuan began to stare nkly at him, "You! I will fight with you¡­"

    Needless to say, he was not a match for a sixth realm golden supremacy like Jin Yilong.

    Next he was beaten to the ground and forced to watch their ''intimate'' show.

    Back to the streets;

    "Hey, watch where you are going!"

    "So what if you are a fourth realm cultivator?"

    "This city is the territory of thirty celestial ns!"

    "Just ignore him. He is just a drunkard¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed like a mad man, "I am going to drink again."

    Soon he saw a tavern and barged in.

    "Hey, you can''te in. The whole tavern is reserved¡­"

    "Shut up!" Ji Yuan said as he sniffed his way up to the tavern and into a private room where there were many jars of wines that were waiting on a big table.

    When he had barged in, there was a stunning maiden with a mesmerizing allure who was sitting on the table drinking all by herself. Standing around her were four other golden celestials.

    The stunning maiden immediately frowned unhappily, "Who is this drunkard? Who let him in? Doesn''t the tavern owner know that we have reserved the entire tavern?"

    Several stewards that were behind Ji Yuan were all scared out of their wits as they stammered for words, "Great Celestials¡­we try to stop him¡­but he is too strong for us¡­he seems to be a fourth realm cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuan was already banging the table but before he could bang it another time, he was seized by the four golden celestials.

    "Outrageous! How dare you bang the table in front of our Little Princess?" One of the golden celestials shouted at him.<sub> </sub>

    "Let your servant cripple his cultivation core!"

    "I will just kill him for our Little Princess!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "All you young masters and young mistresses of the powerful celestial ns are all so haughty. Do you think that you can buy everything with your wealth?! Haha!"

    The stunning maiden frowned lightly, "Let this crazy man go. He seems to have suffered a setback. We shouldn''t let him spoil the mood of this princess."

    "Now scram!" One of the golden celestials shouted to Ji Yuan as they let him go at once.

    But Ji Yuan shed with his hands as he took a cup of wine and sshed it into the face of the stunning maiden, grinning drunkenly, "So what if you have four golden celestials? They are not as fast as me¡­"

    "Arghh! Little Princess¡­your servants didn''t protect you well¡­"

    The four golden celestials were all so shocked at what Ji Yuan had done that they were now beating him to the ground with their fists and kicks.

    Little Princess was trembling uncontrobly because this was the first time that someone had ever dare to ssh wine into her face.

    Her jovial mood had suddenly soured immediately and she was staring at Ji Yuan coldly, "What is your name?"

    "Ji Yuan! I will never change my name! My name is Ji Yuan! Do you have the guts to fight me one to one?"

    Little Princess said coldly, "There are fates that are worse than death. Do you think that you can provoke this princess here and get away just like this? Ji Yuan, you''ll regret the day that you were born!"

    "Let me chop him into eight pieces!" One golden celestial panicky offered.

    "I will skin him alive¡­"

    "I will boil him alive¡­"

    "I will crack all his bones¡­"

    The four golden celestials were panicky now. It was because if their Evil Pce Master were to know that his Little Princess was sshed with wine in her face in front of them, all of them would lose their lives. It did not matter if they were golden celestials or not. The methods of the Evil Cultivation Pce are always cruel.

    Worse, they would suffer a fate that was worse than death itself!

    It was not an exaggeration that they were also trembling hard now.

    The only person that was not trembling was Ji Yuan.

    Little Princess was full of indignant as she said coldly, "Get me ten barrels of wines. He dares to ssh this princess face then I will ssh him back! This princess here will make him rue the day that he was born!"

    "Little Princess, we are in the territories of the righteous orthodox sects and we are traveling incognito. It is best that we keep a lower profile. I have heard that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Mystic Profound Pavilion are nearby. Why not give him a clean death?"

    "You dare to question my orders?!" Little Princess said unhappily and there was a killing malevolent air between her eyes.

    The four golden celestials immediately replied, "Your subordinates dare not disobey Little Princess'' orders¡­"

    "Then do it! Get me ten barrels of wine!"

    "Yes¡­yes¡­"

    At that time Ji Yuan was already beaten to a pulp on the ground and he had no idea what had taken ce.

    <o>,m The first thing that he had realized when he had regained his consciousness was that he was being used by Little Princess as her dual cultivation partner.</o>

    He waspletely stunned because he did not even remember how he was captured by her!

 Chapter 74 Little Princess

    As soon as Yuan Ji and the two sister saintesses had left the abandoned temple, he began to say to them with an anxious look. "So it seems that the Evil Cultivation Pce is involved. This is getting a littleplicated."

    He had already suspected that Xue Qianxue undoing had to do with an influence that wanted her position. He had never expected that the influence would both be an external and internal one.

    "This is the problem with a big sect. There are always multiple factions that are always vying for influences and prestige." He sighed.

    Then he was started to look at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "I know you won''t answer me on this sensitive question but why is the Hundred Flower Divine Flower showing me this for? Obviously the Hundred Flower Divine Pce has already been aware that something is going on between Jin Yilong and the Zhao Songjin. Don''t tell me that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is trying to ruin the sacred maiden ceremony?"

    All of a sudden he had noticed that there was something weird about the expressions that were on Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. They were looking flustered and their eyes seemed to be in a daze.

    "Eh, what do you think of my deductions?" Yuan Ji asked with an awkward smile when he saw their weird expressions.

    Hua Wuwu shyly inhaled heavily, "Brother Yuan Ji, can we talk about thister?"

    "That is right." Hua Baiyue said in agreement as she had tugged Yuan Ji along with her before lowering her voice to say shyly, "This spot seems to be a quiet ce and it is surrounded by boulders. As long as we are fast, we won''t be found out¡­"

    Hua Wuwu whispered, "Are you an eunuch or are you a chicken?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    His Undying Fighting Spirit began to fight back in his sub consciousness and he muttered unwittingly, "I''m not¡­"

    He immediately understood what they had wanted and he began to follow them into the boulders.

    After that he had lifted up their skirts, only to find out that they did not even pull up their undies. It seemed that they were nning for this¡­

    It did not take Yuan Ji very long to do his specialty job.

    But what he and the two sister saintesses did not know was that a shadowy figure was standing more than a mile away and her eyes were like the falcon. Although she could not see what was beyond the boulders but she could roughly guess what was going on.

    "So Ji Yuan, you are still alive huh?" This shadowy figure was actually Little Princess.

    She lit an alluring smile, "You have not only survived the ck Hand Guild''s assassination and you have even survived your breakthrough. Well done indeed. So you are a seventh realm saint now?"

    "My father the Evil Pce Master is still hoping mad that the ck Hand Guild did not manage to finish you off. When his seclusion had ended a decade ago, he had been looking all over for you. He was only appeased when he had learnt that you may have died during your breakthrough. After all, one hundred years had passed since you had entered your cultivation retreat. But today, I have finally found out that you are actually alive and kicking."

    If Yuan Ji could hear her, he would surely curse her loudly and rebuke her with these words. "I don''t have any cultivation resources or cheats. All of you are just pampered young masters and mistresses with so much cultivation resources in your hands that you can''t imagine anyone using one hundred years for your breakthrough. Of course you will think that I am dead."

    Little Princess of course could not imagine it because she was naturally a rich cultivator and moreover the longer a breakthrough, the riskier it was.

    But to Yuan Ji, his speed of breakthrough was already considered faster than most of the other poorer cultivators.

    Even his speed of recovery that he had estimated to recover to his full vital strength after his breakthrough was still faster than most of the other poorer cultivators which was slightly more than a year.

    However to the powerful and rich cultivators, they have more than enough high grade spirit stones to ensure that their cultivation sea will not be affected too much. After a breakthrough, there is a small window in which the cultivators can drain the high grade spirit stones to regain their precious loss of vital energies at a fraction of the high grade spirit stones original spiritual force. But even then, most of the rich cultivators will still require several months of additional cultivation and tons of precious profound pills before they can regain their vital strength.<sub> </sub>

    But to Yuan Ji, he had no such luxuries or resources.

    He was just a representative of the poor cultivators.

    In the celestial fraternity, there are many stories on how a poor cultivator who is despised by everyone would suddenly rise to be a powerful cultivator just because he has found a cultivation cheat that allowed him to cultivate at many times the normal speed of cultivation and even defeat cultivators that are many realms higher.

    In order to appeal to the masses who are all poor cultivators, the main lead will often have a cripple core. In this way, the masses of cultivators will have an empathy with the main lead. It is because nothing is worse than having a cripple cultivation core since it is not possible as everyone was a cultivator. This allowed everyone to imagine themselves as the main lead as they thrash the arrogant young masters and young mistresses.

    But the reality is actually different. The truth is that most of the cultivation cheats and resources are all in the hands of the powerful celestials and the elite prot¨¦g¨¦s, leaving almost nothing to the masses. If anyone wants the cultivation cheats and resources, they will have to use their true ability to win it in the trials. And that is really hard work and no one is willing to put in hard work.

    Therefore it is easier to imagine an OP main lead that did not need to put in any hard work that has a cultivation cheat from the very start.

    For a story like Yuan Ji who is struggling to regain his cultivation strength after a breakthrough, it is definitely not going to appeal to the masses. It is because many of the lofty masses have a proud heart even though they are all low level cultivators. Yuan Ji case is all too normal for them and their proud hearts refuse to face the reality of the cultivation fraternity.

    Yuan Ji on the other hard put in a lot of hard work in his cultivation practice as well as his sword arts. When he had gained fame as the Great Poet Ji Yuan and had a little renown, he tried to advise the masses that it was unrealistic to even find a cultivation cheat when one was a cultivation cripple.

    But the stories evolved faster than he can advise and soon all the main leads in the stories are the rebirth of a great immortal lord to exin their cultivation cheats and speed of cultivation.

    Needless to say, Yuan Ji soon gave up on the unrealistic cultivators and continued to put in efforts into his cultivation. It was because the stories are unable to affect the reality that it is actually the powerful celestial ns that are holding onto all the cultivation cheats, a fact that the proud hearts of the poor cultivators have denied.

    At the same time Yuan Ji is actually quite a righteous person, considering that he could not bear to see everyone in his Five Heavens Peaks get massacred by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and will rather ept a personal duel from the powerful old master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to spare their lives in exchange.

    Even when he couldy his hands on the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, a supreme cultivation art that everyone is eager toy their hands on, he had given it to Ling Feiyue because his thoughts are on training himself up in the shortest time to face the old master.

    One look at the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, Yuan Ji immediately understood that he had to spend tens of thousands of spirit stones to advance in this supreme skill and he may even need a lot of supporting cultivation cheats. The problem was that time was not on his side. In this aspect, he was actually realistic enough.

    But of course, to the majority of the low level cultivators if they had known what he had done, they would probably curse him for being stupid to let go of such a cultivation cheat and to give up a chance to be a true dragon.

    Even the Young Masters and Mistresses would think so as well. It was because their first thoughts were to take the True Sacred Saint Profound Art to cultivate it in an isted ce. They would not care if anyone else would die because of that. To them, it would only mean fewer rivals for them. Moreover, the powerful celestial ns rarely have life threatening threats.

    But they were not Yuan Ji and they were not a Sword Saint like him.

    For Yuan Ji, he had to protect the lives of his two consorts, Shangguan Yan''Er and Fairy Ye Chengxi. Moreover he had grown up in the Five Heavens Peaks and used to have many childhood friends. Although most had perished in the trials or ns'' battles, leaving only a stupid Guo Taiming as his only best friend but he could not abandon him.

    The choice was very clear to him.

    While his actions may be stupid and even na?ve in the eyes of the majority of the cultivators but he remains true to his Great Dao and righteous to his friends.

    Moreover, he has not given up hope on defeating the old master yet. He has a strong conviction and this strong conviction has enabled him to defeat stronger opponents in the past.

    Because of that, he had even cultivated a new state of divinity, the Undying Fighting Spirit in a matter of months rather than years to strengthen his conviction and mental fortitude. Although he was now beginning to see it as a weakness after he got taunted by the two sister saintesses and lost his cool but let leave this for now¡­

    Little Princess was now humming silently from where she was standing in secret, "Ji Yuan! I will make sure that you will die ten thousand times over if you dare to screw up the ns of the Evil Cultivation Pce. You''ll regret the day that you were born and the day that you had met this princess!"

 Chapter 75 The Sacred Maiden Ceremony (1)

    As soon as it was daybreak, the heaven gates of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were filled with thousands of cultivators for today was the crowning ceremony of the new sacred maiden!

    These cultivators all had a proud smirk on their faces because they were considered to be important figures to be invited.

    The invitation cards were divided into Prestige, Gold, Silver and Bronze.

    Only the other six major orthodox celestial ns would receive the prestige invitation cards.

    Most of the invitation cards that were given out were actually the bronze invitation cards but to many of the cultivators, getting an invitation was better than none!

    The whole ce was extremely noisy as everyone had an excited look on their faces. Moreover it was like the big gathering and everyone was just trying to greet or ingratitude to one another.

    "Haha, isn''t that my old friend¡­"

    "Greeting fellow cultivators!"

    "Brothers!"

    "Haha, you have an invitation too?"

    "We are from XXX sect and XXX ce. I wonder if we can be friends?"

    Some of the cultivators were already drooling at the thought that they would be seeing the Goddess Xue Qianxue.

    "s! It is such a pity that we will only see her for thest time¡­"

    "She isn''t going to die. She is just going for her great saintess breakthrough."

    "With her talents, maybe her reclusion will end in a short few hundreds years¡­"

    "Why is she so hasty in achieving a breakthrough?"

    "Listen up! I know! It is because her rival Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue is now a great saintess¡­"

    "It is a pity that Ling Feiyue is an unorthodox cultivator and we won''t have a glimpse of her¡­"

    "The gentle refined beauty of Ling Feiyue is like the beauty of the moon while glorious beauty Xue Qianxue is like the warmth of the sun¡­"

    "The four goddesses are Fairy Ye Chengxi, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xia Jiaqing¡­"

    "It seems that we are now back to the two goddesses now¡­"

    "Seems so. Goddess Xia Jiaqing is now missing while Fairy Ye Chengxi is now married¡­"

    "Who is that lucky bastard that married Fairy Ye Chengxi?"

    "Don''t worry. That lucky bastard is soon going to be dead in one month time¡­"

    "Maybe that will be a good time to go to the Emperor Hall Sect to console Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­"

    "I actually like Fairy Ye Chengxi better¡­because she is easier to control than the other goddesses¡­"

    "Among the four goddesses, only the Pce Mistress Goddess Xia Jiaqing is the most mysterious¡­"

    "She had founded the Emperor Hall Sect with the help of her four grand elders. Although it looks like she was a capable leader but I have some insider news from the Emperor Sect Hall. Xia Jiaqing is actually extremelyzy and she barely likes to lift her fingers¡­"

    When Yuan Ji heard thetest round of gossips about Xia Jiaqing, he was smiling and agreed silently. "She is not onlyzy but she is also a bimbo!"

    It took him all his willpower to resist the temptations to join into the gossips.

    Yuan Ji had a worn a fake beard for this asion. It took Hua Wuwu and Wu Baiyue a lot of efforts to persuade Yuan Ji to wear the fake beard. It was because Yuan Ji was disgusted with the thought of wearing a fake beard.

    "Are you a real man? Do you even have this small amount of tolerant?"

    "A true man can taste the bitter gall and endure the humiliations."

    But in the end they won over him because they had ''taunted'' him and Yuan Ji''s Undying Fighting Spirit had worked against him.

    As for Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, they had donned a veil and did not need any disguise.

    Yuan Ji had also used his mystic art to hide his golden celestial enlightenment.

    When Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue saw that he could hide his enlightenment, they quickly asked him to teach them this mystic profound art.

    "To be honest with you. This mystic profound art isn''t easy to master. It takes me over ten years of constant practice to finally master it. It isn''t a profound art that you can learn in a single day." Yuan Ji had exined to them.

    When he had said that, they were quite disappointed.

    Hua Wuwu asked him, "Where did you learn this mystic profound art from?"

    "I had actually stolen it from the Evil Cultivation Pce when I was escaping from them." He had purposely neglected to mention that he was in fact escaping from Little Princess.

    When the two sister saintesses had heard that he had stolen it from the Evil Cultivation Pce, they had immediately lost interest in the mystic profound art. "No thanks." They suddenly said.

    After a few hours of queuing, they were soon near the heaven gates and Yuan Ji saw that everyone was now taking out their invitation cards.

    It suddenly urred to him that he had not really checked his invitation card.

    Therefore he checked his invitation cards and saw that he had three bronze invitations. He turned to ask Hua Wuwu, "Erm, with your skills, you have only managed to get three bronze invitations?"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled softly, "What? Are you expecting a gold invitation? If you are then why don''t you get it yourself?"

    Hua Baiyue was giggling too before she said, "Stealing the gold invitation cards will be too noticeable. So are the silver invitations. It is better for us to work on the bronze invitations. Even if they have lost the bronze invitations, they dare not tell anyone about it."

    Yuan Ji nodded as it made perfect sense.

    But still he could not help muttering, "The bronze seats will naturally be too far away from Xue Qianxue to rescue her¡­"

    They were soon at the top of the heaven steps and they were told to line up in three groups; one line for the gold invitees, one line for the silver invitees and another line for the bronze invitees.

    The gold invitees'' line was quite short while the silver invitees'' line had a few hundred cultivators. As for the bronze invitees, the queue was lined up all the way down the mountain paths.

    Yuan Ji estimated that there were as many as thirty thousand cultivators in the bronze invitees'' line alone.

    All of a sudden there were dozens of flying mounts that were descending on the tform that was near the heaven gates.

    <o>,m From the banners that were on the mounts, they could clearly see that the mounts had clearly belonged to the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the Mystic Profound Pavilion.</o>

    Needless to say, the Mystic Profound Pavilion had the Prestige invitation card and needed not queue like the rest of them.

    As soon as the flying mountsnded, Yuan Ji could recognize one of the cultivators as Jin Yilong. Most of the cultivators that were on the flying mounts were actually golden celestials and there were dozens of them. However not everyone was from the Mystic Profound Pavilion and it consisted of a few celestial ns as well.

    Just as Yuan Ji was frowning at the sight of Jin Yilong, he suddenly saw a smiling and haughty beautiful maiden that was next to Jin Yilong. This maiden immediately captured the hearts of many of the cultivators that were watching.

    "Do you know who this maiden is? She is Jin Yuyun. She is the only daughter and heiress of Jin Yilong. She is also the most beautiful maiden in the Mystic Profound Pavilion. Moreover at her young age, she is already a golden celestial!"

    Yuan Ji had a light tremble when he saw Jin Yuyun. It was because she really resembled his former sweetheart that had left him for Jin Yilong. Even now he could hear her saying to him, "If we have a daughter in the future, we shall call her Ji Yuyun and if we have a son, we shall call him Ji Tianyun. Yi for righteous, Tian for heavens and Yun for the new era. Together, they will be the righteous heavens of the new era. Isn''t this perfect?"

    His former sweetheart had always been good with words and when he had recalled what she had said to him in the past, there was a piercing arrow in his heart.

    All of a sudden all the cultivators were gasping breathlessly. It was because two astonishing beauties had stepped forth from the ranks of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Even the heart of Yuan Ji had almost jumped up because he had suddenly recognized that they were none other than Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan!

    The heavenly quiet grace of the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi could not be put into words. Her nces were averted, giving her an image of a bashful beauty that was heart wrenching in the hearts of men.<sub> </sub>

    When the cultivators below the heaven steps had heard that Fairy Ye Chengxi had appeared, everyone was pushing upward and were rowdy to have a glimpse at the heavenly fairy Ye Chengxi!

    "Is she¡­Fairy Ye Chengxi?"

    "It is really Fairy Ye Chengxi!"

    "She is indeed a goddess¡­"

    "This is my first time seeing her and I''m impressed¡­"

    As for Shangguan Yan, she was equally astonishing and she had a dignified and intelligent look. She looked more like a humbled schr but there was something about her that would cause all men to attempt to bully her.

    "Who is this beautiful maiden that is next to Fairy Ye Chengxi?"

    "She must be Shangguan Yan¡­"

    "I''ve heard that she is the first consort of that idiot Yuan Ji who dares to challenge the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    "This Yuan Ji is too lucky to have two such consorts¡­"

    "But it is a pity that the two of them will soon be widows¡­"

    Yuan Ji saw that Jin Yilong was continuously looking in a lecherous manner at his two consorts and he was really unhappy.

    Just as he was pondering why the Celestial Orthodox Sect was escorting his two consorts to the sacred maiden ceremony, a cultivator that was next to Yuan Ji was drooling as he said aloud. "That idiot Yuan Ji. If I were him, I would not be giving my life in vain. Since he doesn''t appreciate his two consorts, I may as well help him to ept his two widows¡­"

    He did not manage to finish what he was saying because Yuan Ji had suddenly poked him in his eyes and before anyone could notice what was going on, he had tripped him down the cliff below.

    He immediately shouted, "Someone has identally fallen down the steep cliff!"

    But no one gave a care to the fallen cultivator as they were all engrossed in watching Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    The reason why no one bothered was because they had thought that the cultivator probably had weak knees because he had never seen such beauties in his entire life before. Moreover, the fall would probably not kill him.

    Hua Wuwu smiled as she whispered to Yuan Ji, "Are you happy to see them?"

    But Yuan Ji was frowning lightly, "The Celestial Orthodox Sect is probably up to no good. They obviously knows that they have ''killed'' me and they are only pretending to give the seats of honor to the Emperor Hall Sect. Or else why do you think they will be invited by the Celestial Orthodox Sect?"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled before she whispered, "Maybe it is due to her own merits. You seem to have forgotten that Fairy Ye Chengxi is a Sword Saintess?"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Maybe her opponents have given leeway to her because of her beauty and not because of her ability."

    Hua Baiyue, Hua Wuwu: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Hourster, it was finally their turn to present their invitation card to the holy maidens and they were told to enter a small hall where several groups of holy maidens could be seen with brushes in their fingers as they took note of the gifts that were presented to the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    In front of them, a group of cultivators proudly proimed. "We are from the Mighty Sovereign Sect. We hope to find grace with the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the gift that we are presenting is the Ten Thousand Spirit Void Lingzhi!"

    Then the leader of the group put a pouch in front of a holy maiden who was in charge of checking their gifts. "We hope to have a good seat to witness the beautiful allure of the sacred maiden."

    The holy maiden smiled beautifully as she checked the contents of the pouch. Sisters, give the guests from the Mighty Sovereign Sect a good seat."

    "Yes senior sister!"

    When Yuan Ji saw the scene, he could not help heaving a soft sigh. "They are actually epting bribes in broad daylight!"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled softly, "This is the norm. There is nothing weird about it."

    But Yuan Ji continued to look at the two sister saintesses, "Ahem, maybe you may want to offer a gift and a bribe to them."

    Hua Wuwu grinned at Yuan Ji with a yful tease, "You are too shameless! Listen up, we are not going to help you on this. This is your personal matter. Our parts are already done."

    Yuan Ji muttered, "I can use my body to repay youter."

    Hua Baiyue gave him a hard kick, "Dream on!"

    Hua Wuwuughed softly, "It is more fun to see you embarrassing yourself."

    The next group of cultivators was from the Iron Pride Sect. They were a renowned sect for not giving any bribes or gifts.

    "So it is the cultivators from the Iron Pride Sect?" The holy maiden in charge frowned unhappily. "Take down their names and check their invitations thoroughly." Then she smiled at the leader of the Iron Pride Sect, "Please do not feel offended. We are just making sure that there are no unorthodox cultivators that have sneaked into the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Although she had said that, everyone could see that two vastly different treatments between the two groups!

    The next group of cultivators consisted of only three cultivators. Their leader was not even a great celestial as he presented his three invitation cards. And the leader of this puny group was naturally Yuan Ji.

    The holy maiden in charged looked at Yuan Ji curiously, "You are not a golden celestial yet you have two subordinates that are golden celestials?"

    Yuan Ji immediately grabbed their waists, "You are mistaken. They are not my subordinates. They are my little consorts."

    The holy maiden in charge looked at Yuan Ji with contempt before asking coolly, "Where are you from and what is your gift?"

    "We are from the Virgins Sanctuary Sect." This time it was Hua Wuwu that had spoken. It was because they had not told Yuan Ji where they had stolen the three invitation cards from. All the invitation cards had a secret marking which would reveal the name of the celestial n to the Celestial Orthodox Sect, preventing theft from another. There was no way Yuan Ji could know just by checking the invitation card alone.

    When Yuan Ji heard Hua Wuwu, his jaws almost dropped to the ground and he felt like flipping over. It was because the Virgins Sanctuary Sect was an all-female cultivation sect and that their prot¨¦g¨¦s must all be virgins.

    Even the holy maiden in charge was staring at Yuan Ji and her mouth was gasped open in shock¡­

    Hua Baiyue quickly took out a beautiful pearl as she disy an awkward smile, "This is a super rare thousand year Water Mystic Pearl from the Eastern Celestial Fraternity."

    When the holy maiden in charge saw therge pearl, she was even more startled. It was because the Eastern Celestial Fraternity was located far away from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and this Water Mystic Pearl was indeed priceless!

    "This is for all the sisters here." Hua Baiyue giggled as she took out a pouch full of high grade spirit stones for the holy maiden in charge to examine which immediately caused her eyes to light up.

    "This is our young mistress. Sorry for the bad humor." Hua Baiyue smiled as she peeled off Yuan Ji''s beard. "We are traveling incognito and the fraternity is treacherous for us. Therefore we have to use a little disguise. Have you ever seen such a beautiful face on a man?"

    The holy maiden in charge and all the holy maidens were all gasping softly, "She really has a beautiful face."

    Some was even muttering, "If she is a man, I don''t mind being with him¡­"

    Yuan Ji immediately fake a feminine voice, "That''s right."

    The holy maiden in charge and several of the holy maidens that were around her were all smiling now. So that was the reason! They had almost been fooled!

    The holy maiden in charge was holding onto the high grade spirit stones with a joyous look as sheughed softly, "Make sure to give them the best seats!"

    Hua Wuwuughed heartily, "Thank you fellow sisters!"

    When Yuan Ji had a chance to whisper Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, he immediately said unhappily. "Next time, can you please tell me in advance first?"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled, "There won''t be a next time. By the way, you owe us a hundred high grade spirit stones and a Water Mystic Pearl¡­"

    Yuan Ji feigned ignorance and pretended not to hear her as he quickened his pace.

    "Hey!!!"

 Chapter 76 The Sacred Maiden Ceremony (2)

    In all of Yuan Ji entire life, he had never seen a hall that was as vast as this that could amodate more than fifty thousand cultivators.

    Not only was this hall grandeur and spacious but it looked like it could amodate another one hundred thousand cultivators without any issue.

    He had only one sentence to describe his experience with an envious look after a while in the hall, "The Celestial Orthodox Sect is really a rich sect."

    Everywhere, the beautiful prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were serving the guests with rare fruits and aromatic wines.

    He was actually looking in the direction of the prestige seats and saw that even though there were only six celestial ns that upied it but their prot¨¦g¨¦s numbered in the thousands.

    He waspletely stunned by their numbers and was immediately sheepish.

    It seemed that he needed to tweak his n a little now¡­

    He turned to growl weakly to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "Do they need to send so many cultivators just to attend a ceremony?"

    Hua Wuwuughed, "It is only once every few centuries big event and moreover it is a change of leadership. Naturally the other six major orthodox ns must give a little face."

    "It is more than enough face." Yuan Ji muttered unhappily.

    Hua Baiyue whispered to them, "Look this time round, even the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is also here. What a surprise!"

    Yuan Ji immediately followed her eyes and saw the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. There were actually not many of them and they were only in their dozens instead of hundreds.

    He immediately noted that their robes were actually light blue and that their female prot¨¦g¨¦s were also donning a light blue face veil. Most of the female prot¨¦g¨¦s had already loosened their face veils to sample the rare fruits and aromatic drinks that were spread in front of them.

    Almost all, except for an outstanding maiden with a pair of beautiful golden eyes. However he was soon disappointed because he had noticed that the insignia on her forehead was a blue bird rather than a blue flower petal.

    The veiled maiden that he had suspected to be Xia Jiajia had a blue petal on her forehead¡­

    Next he managed to discover the seating arrangements of Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. They were not hard to miss for they were sitting near to the upper echelons of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Yuan Ji could not help staring in their directions. He was not being discreet at all. But luckily for him, he was not the only ones who were staring at the two astonishing beauties. Therefore his actions were deemed as normal and did not attract any attention.

    As a matter of fact, half of the male cultivators were all staring and inhaling in appreciation of the heavenly beauties of both Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. Moreover there were many beautiful maidens that were sitting at the prestige seats and naturally almost everyone was looking in that direction.

    Those who had the bronze invitations did not care if they were staring unruly because they were numerous and many of the maidens in the prestige seats and gold seats were actually dressing in their best. Their intentions were only too clear and it was for the men to appreciate.

    Even though the men were all looking lecherous at the many beautiful saintesses, supremacies and golden celestials in the hall but they were not foolish to do anything funny. The rules were simple enough. They could only stare but not touch or harass anyone.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji saw a beautiful saintess in the ranks of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor. He was actually quite startled to see her because he had never known that she was from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and she was sitting near Jian Menghao.

    Jian Menghao was naturally Third Young Master Jian Menghao that he had met in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trial. Before Yuan Ji could take any actions on him in the trials, he hadmitted suicide.

    But Yuan Ji was soon frowning because he had suddenly noticed that this beautiful saintess was now serving fruits to Jian Menghao and they were actually quite intimate. There was a look of displeasure in his countenance when he saw them.

    When Hua Baiyue saw his countenance and followed his eyes, she began to chuckle. "What? You''ve already set your sights on Saintess Jian Yuluo, one of the top ten beauties. You really have sharp eyes or shall I say envious eyes?"

    "What? She is Saintess Jian Yuluo?" Yuan Ji was startled. He was startled because when he had known her, she had called herself Saintess Yuxian and she had never told him that she was actually Saintess Jian Yuluo from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor

    "Actually you don''t have to be envious of them." Hua Baiyue giggled. "They have an aunt and nephew rtionship. Moreover Saintess Jian Yuluo is the Celestial Teacher of Jian Menghao."

    Yuan Jiughed nonchntly, "Is that so? Why says I am envious? It is just that I have recognized that Jian Menghao and had thrash him up inside the Lotus Sword Mansion. And why should I look at other beauties when I have two lovely saintesses by my side now?"

    As he said to Hua Baiyue, he was thinking. "Saintess Jian Yuluo is not Xia Jiajia. Saintess Fang Zhenfei may not be Jia Jiajia too. So I havee to a dead end. Jiajia, where are you. Do you know that I am looking for you? Do you think that you owe me an exnation? Or do you have any difficulties? I can help you but only if you''re willing to tell me..."

    His attention soon returned where Saintess Jian Yuluo was. There was a burning hurt in his heart and the bad memories that had urred three hundred years ago had returned to him.

    That was the start of his bad luck. After he was dumped by his old sweetheart, he was captured by Little Princess to be made into her dual cultivation ve. But luckily for him, he had managed to escape after one month of imprisonment when she was not looking and he was found by Saintess ''Yuxian''.

    He was now smiling bitterly now. So Saintess Yuxian was actually Saintess Jian Yuluo. Why did she lie to him? They had a short three months of romance after she had nursed him back to health but she had suddenly disappeared afterward. For the next one hundred years, he had been searching for her news before he had finally given up on finding her.

    But three hundred years ago when he saw her again, there was a mix feelings in his heart.

    Now he had finally understood why she had left him. It was because she was a proud daughter of one of the patriarch celestial ns and he was only a lowly fourth realm cultivator back then. For him to covet after a lofty seventh realm saintess was an unthinkable act and her celestial n would never allow their rtionship to develop.

    Because of the loss of Saintess Yuxian and to fill in the emptiness of his heart, he began to drink heavily and spent more time on creating romantic poems. The rest of the fraternity may only know him as the Great Poet Ji Yuan but they did not know why he was able to create such lingering romantic poems. It was because he had undergone a series of setback three hundred years ago!

    This was something that Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi did not know about their old master''s past. Only his best friend Guo Tianming knew what had happened to him. Problem was, he was beginning to wonder if this ''best'' friend of his had a tight lips about his awkward and bitter past.

    "I will kill you if you tell anyone about this." He cursed Guo Tianming silently at the thought that his best friend''s lips may not be so tight after all.

    His thoughts were interrupted by Hua Wuwu who asked him, "There are about three thousands golden celestials here and as many as three hundred seventh realm golden saints here. Have you decided already?"

    Yuan Ji replied her quietly, "We shall proceed as nned. As soon as Xue Qianxue has arrived, I will distract them. Help me to rescue her."

    Hua Wuwu nodded quietly before she stood up with her sister Hua Baiyue and they seemed to be leaving.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Where are you going?"

    Hua Wuwu replied coolly, "Naturally we are going to get as far away as possible from you. If we are seen with you then they may think that we are in cahoots and it will make the rescue n difficult to execute."

    Hua Baiyue whispered mncholy, "Brother Yuan Ji, please don''t die."

    Hua Wuwu was quietly clenching her fists as she left with Hua Baiyue. They knew that Yuan Ji''s n was to sacrifice himself for Xue Qianxue but they did not expose him.

    There was actually another way to avoid the personal duel with their old master. And that was to allow the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the many celestial ns to kill him in full public view. In this way, the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would be appeased if he could not turn up for their personal duel.

    After all, the Old Master could not find fault with a dead man. If he really wanted to find fault then he would have to settle this feud with the hundreds of celestial ns that had kill him.

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly as he could only watch them mingle among the thousands of cultivators. They were right. It was best if they were far from him when he had stepped out to confront the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    All of a sudden he saw Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing and the rest of their group at the golden seats.

    He was startled, "I thought that they are from the Nine Celestial Fraternity? Why are they here? They will be tricky for me to handle..."

    Yuan Ji did not know that they had also stolen their invitation cards too. Fan Yuqing loved banquets the most and would never give up any chance to attend one.

    He was soon impatiently counting the passage of time as he resolved silently, "Qianxue, I will surely rescue you. Because of me, you have lost everything¡­"

    Just as everyone was jovially toasting and shouting cheers to one another, a spirited and beautiful lovely maiden had stepped on the side of the prestige hall with a soft shout, "Junior here is Celestial Jin Yuyun of the Mystic Profound Pavilion. I will like Celestial Fairy Ye Chengxi to instruct this junior here!"

    Jin Yuyun as one of the ten acknowledged beautiful fairies and her alluring beauty was only slightly beneath the four great beauties. Therefore when she had stepped forward with a challenge to Fairy Ye Chengxi, everyone was startled but they were also looking in her direction with eager anticipation.

    It was obvious to them that Jin Yuyun may be envious of the heavenly beauty of Fairy Ye Chengxi and even her reputation.

    Even Yuan Ji was muttering, "Chengxi is only a beautiful vase. She won''t be a match for this Jin Yuyun who is backed by the formidable celestial resources of the Mystic Profound Pavilion."<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said nonchntly as she took a look at Jin Yuyun before she humbly lowered her nces, "Chengxi is only less than two hundred years of age. How can I be considered to be your senior? We are both at the fifth realm golden celestial level and moreover I am younger in cultivation age than you."

    There was a flush on Jin Yuyun''s countenance. It was true that Fairy Ye Chengxi was younger than her. But she forced through a smile and said, "Everyone knows that Fairy Ye Chengxi is a Sword Saintess. Even if I do not acknowledge that you are my senior, it is not justifiable."

    Then she chuckled softly, "Don''t tell me that a Sword Saintess will be afraid of taking a challenge from the same realm level?"

    "Chengxi is only afraid that we will spoil the happy asion." She said quietly without lifting her eyes.

    Jin Yuyun chuckled softly as she turned to ask all the cultivators in the hall, "If we have a short duel here, will it spoil the mood of everyone here?"

    Immediately there were jovial outbursts, "No! Please continue! It is going to be an eye opener¡­"

    Almost all the cultivators that were shouting a reply were all eager to see the two beauties in action. After all, this was not something that they could see every day!

    Yuan Ji was actually shouted unhappily, "It will surely spoil my mood so get lost!" But his voice was drowned by the thousands of cultivators that were now hoping to see a fight between these two beauties.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "These cultivators are toome¡­"

    Shangguan Yan gasped softly as Ye Chengxi quietly rose up as she replied politely, "In that case, Chengxi will only have to oblige the wishes of everyone."

    When she had said that, all the cultivators were pping and shouting excitingly.

    The only two persons that seemed extremely unhappy about it was actually Yuan Ji and Jin Yilong. It was because Yuan Ji did not want his Chengxi to lose his face and simrly, Jin Yilong did not want his daughter to lose his face too!

    "This Jin Yuyun is really good. She manages to distract everyone but it is a pity that her distraction is at the wrong timing when Xue Qianxue, Zhao Songjin and Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had not arrived yet." Yuan Ji sighed.

    Then he added with another soft sigh, "If they had already arrived then she probably doesn''t have the iron guts to create this disturbance."

    Everyone was now muttering to one another.

    "So who do you think will be able to win?"

    "Jin Yuyun is an upper tier fifth realm golden celestial while Fairy Ye Chengxi is an initial fifth realm golden celestial¡­"

    "Jin Yuyun is two small tiers higher than Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­"

    "But Fairy Ye Chengxi is a Sword Saintess¡­"

    "Although Fairy Ye Chengxi is a Sword Saintess but few have rarely seen her in action¡­"

    "Is a Sword Saintess formidable?"

    "Why don''t you take the Sword Trials and experience it yourself?"

    Although there were about twenty sword saints that were rumored to exist in the entire fraternity but they were rarely seen. Even the seven major orthodox patriarch ns had only one known Sword Saintess and that was the Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    Saintess Jian Yuluo had only attained as a Sword Saintess in the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords three hundred years ago. At that time she was already a saintess.

    The other two known Sword Saints were actually Ji Yuan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Countless number of cultivators had taken the Sword Trials of the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords and had failed.

    All the sword cultivators who were lucky enough to survive the Sword Trials to be a Sword Saint knew how difficult it was.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi may be only a fifth realm cultivator but in the eyes of the sword practitioners from the first to the seventh realm, she was their heroine and the shadow that they were chasing after!

    Jin Yuyun was smiling as she took out an earth grade divine sword, "Please give me your instructions, Sword Saintess Ye Chengxi!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had unsheathed her sword and to the awkwardness of all the sword cultivators, they saw that it was only a half-step precious sword.

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly when he saw her half-step precious sword. It was because her sword was actually given to her by him.

    His Orthodox Sword Sect was quite poor and the best sword that his sect had was actually a heaven-step precious sword and he had given it to Xia Jiajia¡­

    He cursed her softly, "Chengxi, I''m sure that you can get a better sword from the treasuries of the Emperor Hall Sect? At least get yourself an earth-step precious sword¡­"

    All the sword cultivators were now looking anxiously at Fairy Ye Chengxi...

    Not only was Jin Yuyun two tiers higher than Fairy Ye Chengxi but she also had a divine sword that could project her profound power. Moreover she was from one of the patriarch ns and had many secret profound arts hidden in her sleeves.

    Although most of the cultivators used a sword but most were not sword cultivators. Only around 10% of the cultivators presented in the hall were actually sword cultivators while the rest were sabre cultivators, spear cultivators, palm cultivators, finger cultivators, fist cultivators, body cultivators, profound power cultivators, internal profound art cultivators, profound aura cultivators etc. The majority of the cultivators were actually hybrid cultivators.

    That was the main reason why the seven major orthodox patriarch ns had a hard time producing a Sword Saint was because they simply had too many profound arts and it was hard for them to specialize into a field alone.

    Jin Yuyun could not resist a soft chuckle, "Aiyo~ I didn''t know that Sword Saintess Ye Chengxi is actually so poor that she cannot afford a better sword."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi replied nonchntly, "This precious sword is from my old master to me. It is more than good enough."

    Jin Yuyun chuckled, "You call this sword of yours a precious sword?"

    Even Yuan Ji was cursing the same, "You call this sword of yours a precious sword?" He almost had the urge to throw her his divine sword.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled with great tenderness as she looked at the reflection of her sword, "This sword is precious in my heart..."

    "Chengxi! Why don''t you use this precious sword?"

    The voice hade from Saintess Fang Zhenfei as she threw a sword in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Everyone was quite startled that it was actually Saintess Fang Zhenfei that had spoken.

    But when they had all used their divine senses on the sword that Saintess Fang Zhenfei had thrust in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi, they were all quite disappointed to learn that it was actually just a heaven-step precious sword.

    "I believe that this sword belongs to your old master and it is the heritage sword of your Orthodox Sword Sect. I have happened to find it by the roadside." Saintess Fang Zhenfei said indifferently before she resumed her meditating pose.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped immediately when she saw the precious sword and her eyes were bleary. "This is Sky Forth, my old master''s precious sword¡­"

    Yuan Ji was also startled to see his sect heritage sword again. But he was more startled that Saintess Fang Zhenfei actually had his heritage sword. Although he could not be sure if she was Xia Jiajia but when she said that she had found it by the roadside, he was already ny percent sure that it was her!

    Moreover he had given Sky Forth to her as his pledge for her. Why would it be in the hands of others?

    "Find it by the roadside? When she had stolen the Blue Divine Flower, she had also said that she had found it by the roadside. She is really such a bimbo. Haha. Jiajia, I have finally found you¡­"

 Chapter 77 The Sacred Maiden Ceremony (3)

    Fairy Ye Chengxi returned a quiet hand bow to Saintess Fang Zhenfei before she picked up Sky Forth that was thrust in front of her.

    She muttered incoherently, "This is my old master''s sword. It''s so good to see you again. But why is this sword with her? Did she really find it by the roadside?"

    Jin Yuyun disyed a smirk as she swung her divine sword in front of her and there was a shrieking sound that was caused by the breaking of the windforces that was caused by her sword.

    Her sword was really a good sword as evidenced by the sounds of the windforces that were heard when she had swung it!

    Many of the cultivators had an envious look as they gasped softly at her divine sword. In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, obtaining a divine sword was a lofty dream for many and that included the elite prot¨¦g¨¦s from the seven major orthodox ns.

    Jin Yuyun was the daughter of Jin Yilong and she had a lofty position within the Mystic Profound Pavilion. Plus the fact that her father had doted on her and that was why she had a divine sword. As a matter of fact, she was his only child.

    The higher the realm level a cultivator was, the more difficult it was for them to have any children. Even though Jin Yilong had many consorts but after so many years, she was still his only child and because of this reason, he had spoiled her rotten.

    Naturally because Jin Yuyun felt that she was a proud daughter of the heavens, she had even dared to challenge Fairy Ye Chengxi in the presence of so many high level cultivators. She did not care if these high level cultivators were her seniors in cultivation. She was bent on winning renown for herself.

    "Please give me your instructions!" Jin Yuyunughed softly.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi also returned a polite greeting, "Please give me your instructions."

    With that they had immediate brandished their swords and were immediately encircling each other.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi steps were extremely light and she was like a fairy that was drifting like a cloud. The onlookers were all dazzled by her and many did not even realize that she was even moving continuously.

    Jin Yuyun was the first to attack upon seeing that Fairy Ye Chengxi had hesitated to make the first move.

    She had immediately unleashed a series of sword strokes; her strokes were ingenious and contained stroke within a stroke.

    "It is the Thirteen Strokes of the Gushing Winds!" Many of the cultivators were gasping with startled astonishment.

    The Thirteen Strokes of the Gushing Winds were an advanced swordy that was ranked within the top thirty sword arts ranking. It was an extremely fast swordy but it was also extremely difficult to master.

    From Jin Yuyun''s astonishing disy of the Thirteen Strokes of the Gushing Winds, everyone knew that she had reached a high level of expertise in it. Moreover her sword strokes were augmented by her divine sword and all her strokes disyed startling profound power that immediately put most fifth realm golden celestials to shame.

    <o>,m Fairy Ye Chengxi immediately counter-attacked with the sword art of the Orthodox Sword Sect, which was a several light whirlwind strokes that seeminglycked power.</o>

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin nervously as he muttered, "Our sect sword ranking is at the forty-nine rank. It isn''t too bad whenpared to a superior sword art like the Thirteen Strokes of the Gushing Winds."

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi''s sect swordy is currently unranked. It used to be forty-nine when Sword Saint Ji Yuan is around. I am afraid that Fairy Ye Chengxi may suffer a crushing defeat this time round." A cultivator in front of Yuan Ji was discussing with the cultivator next to him.

    When Yuan Ji heard him, he had an ugly face and he was cursing silently. "What? Our sect swordy has now fallen into such a poor state?"

    "Actually the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect is rather ordinary. I just don''t understand how Fairy Ye Chengxi is able to be a Sword Saintess¡­"

    "Whether it is cultivation level, sword art, profound strength, profound power and sword, Jin Yuyun is superior to Fairy Ye Chengxi. There is no doubt that Fairy Ye Chengxi has a disadvantage."

    Jin Yuyun had suddenly raised a soft shout as she mustered all her profound strength as she charged forward with the Torrential Charge and the Sweeping Gale Force, two of the most powerful sword arts of the Thirteen Strokes of the Gushing Winds.

    Immediately there were dozens of sword strokes that apanied the sword disy of Jin Yuyun as she charged forward, forcing Fairy Ye Chengxi to skip five steps backward.

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "The victor is determined now."

    All of a sudden Fairy Ye Chengxi had returned a barrage of sword strokes into the Sweeping G Force which consisted of dozens of dancing sword shadows.

    To the astonishment of all the onlookers, Fairy Ye Chengxi had neutralized all the sword strokes that were from Jin Yuyun in a blink of an eye and all of a sudden her sword was pointing at Jin Yuyun''s throat!

    Everyone was blinking their eyes. It was because it happened so fast that only the higher realm cultivators could actually see what was happening.

    Even Jin Yuyun was stunned that Fairy Ye Chengxi''s seemingly weak sword strokes had neutralized her Sweeping Gale Force in a blink of an eye. Her Sweeping G Force was so fast that she could unleash thirty-six strokes in an instant. This quick burst was extremely draining to her profound strength but very few opponents actually had the measure to oppose the insane speed of the Sweeping Gale Force.

    But Fairy Ye Chengxi had disyed forty-eight strokes in an instant and hadpletely neutralized her Sweeping Gale Force.

    Before Jin Yuyun could realize what happened next, Fairy Ye Chengxi''s sword was already on her throat!

    Yuan Ji had of course predicted that Fairy Ye Chengxi would win and not Jin Yuyun.

    It was because he had often ruthlessly bullied his Chengxi with his barrage of sword stroke, showing no mercy to her. The only way for her to break his barrage of sword strokes was not to engage his sword strokes directly at the very start when it was at its strongest point but to engage it when his profound strength was renewing.

    He had trained to his Chengxi to watch her opponents'' attacks keenly and to ovee this kind of speed techniques.

    "Speed techniques have a weakness. You can ovee it via a little trick and of course, you have to be fast too." He had told her.

    Jin Yuyun really could not believe that she would lose to Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    She quickly parried Fairy Ye Chengxi''s sword aside and raised her palm to disy a powerful palm profound art. The instant that she had disyed her palm profound art, a burst of triple halo began to burst forth around her!

    Everyone was rmed because they could see that this palm profound art was the powerful Mystic Profound Hand, a divine profound art that could crush the bones of even a golden celestial!

    Jin Yuyun had taken advantage of Fairy Ye Chengxi''s mercy to suddenly knock aside the sword that was pointing at her throat to retaliate. In the eyes of many of the cultivators that were watching the duel, it was a shameless act and it was even more shameless because Jin Yuyun cultivation level was higher than Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    But Fairy Ye Chengxi gently raised her left fingers as five piercing sword energies fingers struck Jin Yuyun''s palm hard, causing her to shriek painfully as she stumbled three steps back.

    Many of the cultivators were startled by Fairy Ye Chengxi''s disy of her sword energies fingers.

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi is a sword energies practitioner?"

    "And her sword energies can even break the Mystic Profound Hand?"

    "Maybe Jin Yuyun is too weak in her Mystic Profound Hand¡­"

    Jin Yilong shouted at Jin Yuyun, "Have you disgrace yourself enough? Come back to your seat now."

    After he scolded his daughter, he turned to look lecherously at Fairy Ye Chengxi and smiled at her, "Fairy Ye is indeed skillful. I am truly impressed by you. Please ept my sincere apologies for the rudeness that is disyed by my daughter. I will like to invite Fairy Ye to visit the Mystic Profound Pavilion so that I can extend my heartfelt apologies."

    "I appreciate it." Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled lightly before she returned to her seat, leaving Jin Yilong to wonder if that was a yes or a no.

    "Maybe she is too shy to answer me. After all, there are so many cultivators around. Maybe I will ask her in private instead." Jin Yilong was grinning as he stared lecherously at Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    He was only interrupted by an angry huff by his daughter who had returned to her seat that was next to him, "Father! I have not lost yet!"

    Jin Yilong frowned when he had heard her, "Forget it. Finger skills are a natural nemesis to palm skills. You didn''t know that she is a sword energies practitioner¡­"

    "Fist skills are a nemesis to her finger skills. Father, get me a powerful fist cultivation profound art to fight her. Next time I will smash her fingers." Jin Yuyun interrupted her father with an unhappy face.<sub> </sub>

    Third Young Master Jian Menghao was heard quite audible, "I will like to challenge the Goddess Fairy Ye Chengxi too¡­"

    "Sit down and be quiet!" Saintess Jian Yuluo stared coldly at him before lowering her voice. "Aren''t you shameless? She is a maiden. Don''t bully her. Do you want to be the enemy of all the cultivators that have their eyes on her?"

    With a reluctant and lustful look, Third Young Master Jian Menghao forced himself to stand still. After all, he did not dare to disobey his Celestial Teacher and aunt.

    Yuan Ji''s attention had quickly returned to Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    He was sighing heavily. "She is sitting in the prestige seat. I can''t even go over there to talk to her. At least I can see her for thest time before my passing. This is a small constion to my heart. I wonder if she will feel grieve for me and is willing to guard my tomb as my widow?"

    "Fat hope!"

    Yuan Ji was startled when his thoughts rebuked him. But he soon realized that it was actually Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li was now rebuking him, "Forget that Xue Qianxue! What is so good about her? You have two lovely saintesses that you can make merry with. Why are you throwing your life for a mere maiden?"

    When Yuan Ji saw Xiang Li in his soul sea, he was frowning lightly. "Go away." He gave an additional frown when he remembered that Xiang Li was actually a lusty spirit entity that only appeared whenever he was having fun with the two sister saintesses.

    "Why did I have such a sentient spirit entity for? Where is my noble heart and caring spirit entity?"

    "Remember you are not my master yet." Xiang Liughed as she reminded him. "You ought to find me a new owner soon. Maybe you ought to pass me to Hua Wuwu¡­but I like Maiden Ling Feiyue better¡­she is a great saintess¡­her future is limitless¡­"

    "I will never see Feiyue again. Moreover we have already broken up. I will dump you into a pit hole full of shit before I die." Yuan Ji interrupted her with a light frown.

    "You are so honest with me. I like it. Hehe." Xiang Li did not seem to mind as she disappeared again.

    All of a sudden several holy maidens were announcing, "Sacred Maiden Qianxue is making her entrance. Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi is making her entrance. The matriarch elders of the sect are making their entrances¡­"

    The announcements were repeated three times altogether.

    But after the first time when everyone had heard the mention of Sacred Maiden Qianxue, the entire hall fell into breathless anticipations as everyone was looking at the inner hallways for her arrival.

    The hundreds of young masters had even left their seats as they stared nkly at the inner hallway. The fans of Xue Qianxue were in their thousands!

    After all Xue Qianxue was the number one peerless beauty of the Orthodox Fraternity and was the apple of their eyes and desires.

    Even Yuan Ji was standing instead of sitting down.

    All of a sudden, everyone was shoving one another as they muttered. "Why did you stand up for? Stop blocking me. Stop shoving me. Hey, sit down!"

    Many of the maidens in the hall were naturally unhappy when they saw the looks that were on the men that were like ravenous wolves.

    But the men ignored the looks of the maidens, their consorts and even their elders as they continued to lean forward. There were even many that even ignored their elders''mands to sit down.

    One must know that in order for a young master to even catch a glimpse of Xue Qianxue, they had to bring expensive gifts to even have a chance to have a look at her. But today Xue Qianxue would be making her public appearance. Naturally no one would want to give up such a chance to see her for the veryst time!

    An old elder in front of Yuan Ji was rebuking his prot¨¦g¨¦s, "All of you, sit down! You are all throwing the sect''s face away."

    Yuan Ji was impressed by the old elder as he thought, "At least there is a man of culture here."

    The old elder started to shove his prot¨¦g¨¦s, "All of you are blocking my view. Sit down!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "They areing!" The cultivators were all muttering excitingly as they could see the shadows that were beyond the hallway and many of the cultivators were even extending their divine senses to probe.

    Before long, a group of beautiful golden celestials had emerged from the hallway. They were the beautiful Zhao Songjin who was dressed in the white and gold attire of the sacred maiden garb and she was apanied by several beautiful saintesses and elders of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Zhao Songjin was really astonishing beautiful and she was also in the top ten beauties ranking of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    She was smiling proudly and why would she not be haughty at the same time? Today was her big day and from this day onward, she would be in charge of the powerful Celestial Orthodox Sect, one of the patriarch ns of the Deste Celestial Fraternity!

    But her smiles slowly faded because she could sense that the divine senses of the many cultivators were actually not on her but were all extending beyond the hallway; they were only interested in Xue Qianxue!

    She forced herself to smile gracefully as she took her seat in the middle of the hall with her other prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters.

    Before long, a second group had emerged from the hallway and everyone was now muttering excitingly. "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue! She is here!"

    "Xue Qianxue is finally here!"

    "Look! Look!"

    The Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi was actually quite pretty too and she had thought that everyone was looking in awe of her. After all, she was a great saintess and had a lofty status within the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    But she soon realized her mistake because all the looks and divine senses were sweeping past her to her personal prot¨¦g¨¦ who was behind her, Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue!

    Although Xue Qianxue was surrounded by more than ten beautiful golden celestials but her peerless beauty was just too dazzling, causing the others to fade away in her presence.

    The loveliness of Xue Qianxue was a mixture of innocence and cuteness at the same time while her alluring beauty was like a radiance beauty that immediately lifted the spirits of her admirers. The more they admired her, the deeper her beauty was able to etch into their hearts.

    That was why her peerless beauty was like a sweeping awe in the hall. Only the heavenly graceful beauty of Fairy Ye Chengxi was able to light a candle in her presence.

    The smiling Xue Qianxue had noticed Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan the instant that she had entered the hall as she muttered silently, "So that is Ji Yuan''s two consorts? I so envy them¡­"

    When she had thought of Ji Yuan, her fingers were unconsciously at her belly. She had used her profound strength to seal the growth of her unborn child. This was a secret that she was unwilling to reveal to her matriarch or to anyone. She was determined to give birth to her child once this handover ceremony was over¡­

    Zhao Songjin was gritting her teeth as she stared coldly at Xue Qianxue. "She can still smile? After I have be the Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin, I like to see how you can manage to smile. Maybe I can even arrange an ident for you."

    Yuan Ji was blinking his eyes when he saw Xue Qianxue. It was as though he was seeing her for the very first time. She still had her long pony tail bundled to a side and her loveliness was still as melting as ever.

    He still could not believe that he had been intimate with such a peerless beauty.

    Xiang Li had suddenly reappeared in his soul sea and was gasping, "She is Xue Qianxue?"

    She was soon smiling, "She is really not bad. No wonder you want to dump the Goddess Ling Feiyue for her. Well, I''ve changed my mind and decide to help you."

    Yuan Ji took a suspicious look at her before muttering, "Xiang Li, actually are you a male or female spirit entity?"

    Xiang Li had a flustered look before she chuckled, "Of course I am a female!"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Are you sure? I never seen a more lecherous female than you..."

 Chapter 78 The Sacred Maiden Ceremony (4)

    Behind Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, were also the five leaders of the six major orthodox ns. There was one leader missing and it was Saintess Fang Zhenfei; she was uninterested in the affairs of the Orthodox Fraternity.

    The other leaders of the Orthodox Fraternity knew that Saintess Fang Zhenfei rarely bothered with the Orthodox Fraternity and they did not mind her absence at all. They knew that she was already showing face by turning up.

    It seemed that they had all just finished a close door meeting and Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had introduced to them the new sessor to the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the reason why Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was entering into seclusion.

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had merely exined that Xue Qianxue was going to enter into seclusion together with her and she would be going for her great saintess breakthrough and hence, she needed to be prepared for it.

    Although her excuse was quiteme for Xue Qianxue was actually quite young by the standards of the celestial fraternity to attempt the fourth life and death tribtion but it was still an eptable story. After all, Xue Qianxue was the acknowledged young genius of her generation.

    Now that the leaders of all the seven major orthodox ns were all here, everyone began to pay their homages to them excitingly.

    Yuan Ji was now tapping his table nervously. It was almost the time for him to act!

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi smiled as she said aloud, "As everyone knows, today Sacred Maiden Qianxue will be handing over the sect duties to Elder Zhao Songjin and Songjin will be the new Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Zhao Songjin was smiling broadly now; today she would finally be the Sacred Maiden and she wouldy her hands on the Sacred Maiden Profound Art in which only the sect master could practice.

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi said, "I will let Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue say a word or two to everyone first."

    Xue Qianxue blinked her eyes as she nodded toward her prot¨¦g¨¦ master as she quietly rose. When she was blinking her eyes, many of the cultivators had actually misunderstood that she was actually winking at them and was dazzled by her.

    Han Yuchi sighed quietly. If given a choice, she would not bear to force Qianxue to give up her sacred maiden position. But what she did was too outrageous.

    "Qianxue, have you forgotten that that the practitioners of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art must retain the chastity of their body in order to reach the highest level? You''re supposed to be genius of your generation and had the highest chance to surpass everyone, even bing the only genius cultivator of our sect in thousands of years to master the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. Yet, you are giving it all up in your moment of sheer folly. s¡­"

    Then she took a quiet nce at Zhao Songjin and was pleased with her choice, "Songjin is also our sect genius cultivator as well and she is pure¡­"

    Actually Xue Qianxue did have a chance to repent when she was questioned by her master but she had refused to acknowledge that she was in the wrong and she had even proimed that she was going to be this Yuan Ji''s consort. This caused Han Yuchi to be extremely disappointed with her.

    "This Yuan Ji is going to be a dead man in a few months'' time! Moreover he already had two consorts. Your future lies with the seven major orthodox ns. Jin Yilong only has a daughter and as the scion of the richest patriarch n, you should consider him."

    But Xue Qianxue had rebuked her, "Master, that Jin Yilong already has more than thirty consorts!"

    "That isn''t the point. The point is that he doesn''t have a heir and our Sacred Maiden Profound Art also preserves your fertility¡­"

    "Master, I''m not your tool¡­"

    "Then you can forget about being a sacred maiden." Han Yuchi had threatened her.

    "So be it then!" Xue Qianxue replied nonchntly. "I only want to be with Yuan Ji."

    Han Yuchi hummed coldly, "Then I shall have to sentence him to death right in front of your eyes."

    Xue Qianxue smiled bitterly, "Whether I agree to do your bidding or not, you won''t spare him. Am I right to say so? I have already heard that you have whipped him to a half dead state."

    Han Yuchi was quiet on that. It was because she was actually quite startled that Yuan Ji did not die after three weeks of whipping. This fifth realm golden celestial was really a tough nut to kill off.

    She did not know of course that she was whipping a seventh realm cultivator that had his profound strength temporary weakened to the fifth realm level as Yuan Ji only had his breakthrough a couple of months ago.

    Normally a cultivator would wait for their profound strength to fully recover after their breakthrough before they ventured out so that they could show off their new cultivation strength.

    But Yuan Ji simply did not have such luxury as he was dead poor.

    Therefore when the cultivators of the Celestial Orthodox Sect had examined his cultivation core, they had all mistaken his true cultivation realm to be at the fifth realm level. Yuan Ji was lucky that they did not do a more thorough check as they had despised him and did not want to spend a single minute more on him. To them, he was a despicable viin that had robbed their Sacred Maiden Qianxue of her chastity with his honeyb lies.

    After a few whippings of the Heavenly Tribtion Whip, even Yuan Ji''s beautiful face had also lost its charm and his daily whippings had also increased.

    But he simply did not die from his ordeals and had even survived until the day of his golden tribtion lightning punishment.

    Actually Yuan Ji may not survived the heavenly whip of the Celestial Orthodox Sect as he was constantly whipped to a bloody mess but the spiritual force in the mountains of the Celestial Orthodox Sect was really too rich. Even when he was unconscious, he was still able to constantly replenish his soul sea and constantly renewing his cultivation vital strength. Moreover, his cultivation strength was even replenishing at an insane rate due to the profound energies of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art that was circting within his soul sea.

    Xue Qianxue was smiling to the cultivators in the hall as she took unhurried steps to the middle of the hall.

    Although she was smiling at the cultivators, she was actually secretly using her divine sense to search for Ji Yuan. She had learnt from Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue that Ji Yuan was still alive and she harbored a little hope that he may be here today. But there were simply too many cultivators and if Ji Yuan was here today, he was likely to be using a disguise, making him even harder to spot.

    But still she continued to scan with her divine sense.

    "Ji Yuan, are you here today? I rather you are not here but I really miss you¡­"

    In the meantime Ji Yuan was already making ns to disrupt the ceremony. It was because he had finally got the chance to see her again and he could not resist a light tremble.

    All of a sudden he had turned ashen; it was because he had suddenly spotted a smiling Little Princess who was behind Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan!

    "What is she doing there?!" His heart had suddenly frozen.

    He was really afraid of Little Princess because she had left quite a dark blemish in the heart of his Great Dao. Moreover Little Princess knew what he had looked like before he spotted his long beard.

    Just as he was hesitating to take his actions, there were panicky outbursts from the entrance of the great hall.

    Everyone was rmed because they could sense killing intents from beyond the entrance and there were even the shing of swords!

    A low level cultivator of the Celestial Orthodox Sect had panicky entered the great hall as she hastily reported, "The unorthodox cultivators are here! They flew in on their flying mounts! We try to stop them but we are unable to stop them!"<sub> </sub>

    Matriarch Han Yuchi hummed coldly, "They must be courting their death wishes! How many of them are storming in?"

    "Around thirty."

    When all the cultivators heard that it was only a miserable thirty, almost everyone was roaring withughter and amusement. The number of seventh realm experts in this grand hall alone numbered at least a hundred and the number of golden celestials alone numbered in the thousands!

    Even Matriarch Han Yuchi was stunned before she regained herposure. "Have the inner court golden celestials to deal with them. Don''t bother me with such small matters¡­"

    But barely had she finished speaking, several golden celestials of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were kicked into the great hall, startling everyone.

    "I''m afraid that your inner court golden celestials may not be able to turn me away." An enthralling and powerful voice echoed from beyond the main entrance of the great hall.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "This¡­"

    Even Xue Qianxue was startled as she turned her attention from the cultivators to the main entrance of the hall, putting Ji Yuan aside for the time being.

    Before long, about thirty male and female cultivators all dressed in raven ck robes appeared at the main entrance. All of them had golden eyes and they were all at the fifth realm level and above!

    But what had caught the attention and even imagination of all the cultivators in the great hall was the presence of an alluring long hair maiden that was leading them. She was extremely beautiful and breathtaking as everyone was gasping at her mesmerizing peerless beauty.

    When they saw the insignia that were on their ck robes, many of cultivators were muttering. "These unorthodox cultivators are from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect¡­"

    "If they are from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect then the peerless maiden that is leading them must be Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue?"

    "Ling Feiyue is really so beautiful¡­"

    "No wonder she is ranked as the four great beauties¡­"

    "She is like the moon while Xue Qianxue is like the sun¡­"

    "Eh? She is really bold to attack the Celestial Orthodox Sect with only just a few cultivators¡­"

    But at the same time all the cultivators that were near her were intimidated by her suffocating presence. It was because she was exuding the air of a great saintess.

    "Upper tier seventh realm level¡­"

    "Ling Feiyue is already a great saintess?!"

    "How is it possible? She is so young¡­"

    "Great Saintess is like the eighth realm level already and moreover her fan is a heaven-step divine weapon¡­"

    "She is probably the only great saintess in her group. There are actually ten great saints in this hall to oppose her. Moreover several lower tier saints may be enough to take her out too¡­"

    "But her air looks different¡­"

    Yuan Ji was stunned to see Ling Feiyue so soon. He did not remember telling her that he was going to the Celestial Orthodox Sect therefore she must havee here on her own ord.

    "Why is she here?!"

    "Doesn''t she know that this is the stronghold of the orthodox ns?"

    "Don''t tell me she is here to settle her feud with Xue Qianxue?" Yuan Ji had suddenly remembered that they had a feud in the past.

    All of a sudden he had a terrible headache. The main reason why he had decided to break off with Ling Feiyue was because he did not want to let her know that he wasing here to rescue Xue Qianxue. It was best that she did not know that he had a rtionship with Xue Qianxue¡­

    All of a sudden he had realized something else.

    "Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Chengxi, Yan''Er, Little Princess, Jian Yuluo and Xia Jiajia¡­they are all here today¡­crap¡­how am I even able to show my face today?"

    Han Yuchi said coldly, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue? Why are you here for?"

    The peerless maiden that was leading the intruders was indeed Ling Feiyue. She waved her raven fan gently before answering coolly, "Since Xue Qianxue is abdicating her position, I am naturally here to witness this great asion."

    Han Yuchi hummed coldly, "You are really bold toe here. However we do not wee you. If you are smart enough, you should leave immediately."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled beautifully, "What if I say no? What will you do to me?"

    Han Yuchi returned a cold smirk, "Then don''t me me for taking good care of youter!"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly waved her fan and in the next instant it was reshaped into a heaven-step divine sword, "Today I am taking Xue Qianxue away! If anyone dares to stop me, don''t me me for being ruthless!"

    When she had said that, many of the cultivators who were still drinking calmly were suddenly choking and looking at Ling Feiyue with amusement. She must be joking, right? There was no way she could even battle even one-tenth of all the cultivators here.

    Moreover Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi was also a great saintess and she was renowned for her hot temper!

    This was a direct provocation!

    Yuan Ji was stunned by Ling Feiyue''s promation as he muttered, "This is supposed to be my speech. Why is she using my speech now..."

    Xiang Li had popped into Yuan Ji''s soul sea and she was looking quite miserable as she struggled with her inner heart demons, "Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue...I can''t decide who to help now..."

 Chapter 79 Ling Feiyue Vs. Xue Qianxue (1)

    "I am no longer Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue but Demoness Ling Feiyue. This will be my celestial title in the future when I run rampage in the Orthodox Fraternity. Be sure to remember my new celestial title and live in fear of my name!"

    Xiang Li was startled as she said to Yuan Ji, "Look what you have done to her. You broke her heart and turn her into a Demoness!"

    Yuan Ji muttered back, "Whose side are you on?"

    "Of course it is with Ling Feiyue!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "What arrogance¡­"

    "Although she is a pretty face but we should teach her a lesson¡­"

    "We are many and they are few¡­"

    "I can already imagine the peerless Ling Feiyue bending under my knees¡­"

    "What did you just say?"

    "I mean¡­erm¡­begging us for mercies under our knees¡­"

    "It isn''t entirely honorable for so many of us to fight her alone. Actually the Celestial Orthodox Sect is more than enough to handle her¡­"

    Ling Feiyue maintained an indifferent gaze as she turned to Xue Qianxue and said, "Qianxue, so long no meet! Do you remember that we have an unfinished duel a hundred years ago?"

    "So you havee to challenge me today?" Xue Qianxue chuckled and instantly her cuteness level broke the 100% level, sending many of the cultivators in a dreamy daze as they watched her.

    "Why else should I be here? Come with me or else I will demolish the whole ce." Ling Feiyue giggled softly, causing the hearts of the cultivators to melt. How could any maiden smile the way that she had smiled, stirring the passions of the male cultivators.

    The sight of the two peerless goddesses making their exchanges caused many of the cultivators, including the females to be stupefied at their many expressions.

    Xue Qianxue smiled. "In that case, I will ept your duel¡­"

    "Outrageous!" Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi mmed her fist on the table as she interrupted Xue Qianxue. "Qianxue, you are not going anywhere and you are not epting any duels today."

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi pointed her fingers at Ling Feiyue, "Since you have dared toe here then don''t me me for not showing you any mercy¡­"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly as she interrupted her, "So the orthodox cultivators are just a batch of cowards? I can see that Xue Qianxue is actually just a coward that refuses to honor our agreed duel. Instead she is trying to use a cultivation retreat to hide away from me? What a joke! You have evene up with a leadership change just to hide yourself from me. Hmph!"

    Xue Qianxue frowned, "Who says I am afraid of you? We can settle our feud today."

    When Xue Qianxue was frowning mncholy, her adorable level broke the 110% barrier and all the young masters that were pursuing her were all delighted.

    Third Young Master Jian Menghao waspletely captivated by Xue Qianxue and he was muttering, "She is too peerless. Fear not Qianxue, I will take your ce in your duel¡­"

    Saintess Jian Yuluo turned to say coldly at him, "Menghao, be quiet. Don''t let the others hear you. You''re not Ling Feiyue''s match. She can kill you instantly with her Six Realms Divine Art."

    "Six Realms Divine Art?" Jian Menghao muttered as he took a perplexed look at his Celestial Teacher.

    "That is her internal profound art. This divine art is among the top ten internal profound arts. Today she carries a strong killing intention. She isn''t here to y." Saintess Jian Yuluo said as she took a sip.

    Jian Menghao began to say panicky, "Celestial Teacher, you''re a Sword Saintess and a seventh realm expert. You must help Qianxue¡­"

    "Just watch. Ling Feiyue isn''t going to win against everyone here even if I did not intervene. The Celestial Orthodox Sect is more than enough to handle her." Saintess Jian Yuluo interrupted him with an indifferent look.

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had raised her voice to say maliciously, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue! You''ve dared toe to my Celestial Orthodox Sect to create a din. Today I will make sure that you do not leave the Celestial Orthodox Sect!"

    "Oh? So your personal prot¨¦g¨¦ can''t defeat me and the master hase to teach me a lesson? So this is the way of the orthodox cultivators. You are all nothing but cowards!" Ling Feiyue rebuked gently.

    The way she was rebuking Han Yuchi had caused her enticing beauty to break through the 110% level with the many cultivators. It was because her voice was really too soft and gentle.

    When Yuan Ji saw Ling Feiyue rebuking Han Yuchi in such a mild and cultured manner, he was smiling bitterly. "Feiyue, do you know how to raise your voice or not? No one will treat you seriously when you can''t even rebuke them with an angry voice. You have made a dramatic entrance but now you have be aughing stock¡­"

    Xiang Li interrupted him, "Actually I feel that Feiyue voice is alright. Although her voice is soft but the rity of her voice can be heard clearly by everyone because of her strong internal profound strength. Her voice is really so sexy¡­"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Too sexy to feel threaten by her, in fact¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "I will give you two options. Admit that the profound skills of the Celestial Orthodox Sect are inferior to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect then I will leave peacefully. Or else have Xue Qianxue to ept my challenge to her immediately!"

    "Outrageous!" Han Yuchi rebuked back strongly. This Ling Feiyue had actually had the audacity to issue an ultimatum to the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Zhao Songjin saw that the matriarch was displeased so she was also shouting. "Outrageous!"

    Immediately she had shed forward with her earth-step divine sword. "Ling Feiyue! This saintess here will teach you a lesson that you will remember forever in your heart¡­"

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue had swung her sword forward and there was a white light that was like a coiling dragon that had burst forth from her sword and it had struck the startled Zhao Songjin as it threw her violently back to her starting point!

    Zhao Songjin had to scurry hastily ten steps backward before she could steady her steps, thrusting her sword onto the ground at the same time as she bent forward with an astonished look. She coughed out a bout of blood at the same time as she inhaled deeply.

    All the cultivators presented were also astonished by the attack that was disyed by Ling Feiyue!

    It was because the attack that was disyed by Ling Feiyue was clearly not a sword energy attack but a profound power attack. Many of the cultivators had never known that a profound power would have such range and devastating effect!

    "What is this sword art?"

    "I have never seen anything like this before?"

    "Did you see that?!"

    Zhao Songjin knew that Ling Feiyue was not a sword energy practitioner and therefore she had not prepared any profound defense when she was charging forward. If not given her cultivation strength as a middle tier seventh realm saintess, she would be able to ward off Ling Feiyue''s attackpletely.

    While everyone could not recognize Ling Feiyue''s sword art but Yuan Ji had recognized it as a sword art that they had created together¡­

    Zhao Songjin gasped with a shock look, "What is this sword art?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled with great tenderness as she looked at the reflection of her sword, "Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon." Then she muttered quietly. "I wonder if he likes this name? He didn''t answer me if he likes it or not¡­"

    Although her mutterings were soft but Yuan Ji could hear her clearly. After all he was in the bronze seats which were near the main entrance and moreover he was also a seventh realm saint.

    He muttered silently, "I like¡­"

    Zhao Songjin naturally was not about to give up after such a small setback. This time she had surrounded herself with her profound power as she disyed a bright golden animus.

    She was a proud middle tier saintess and the future Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin. She would never admit that she was beneath Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue!

    Therefore she started to disy her newly attained eighth level of the Beautiful Maiden Swordy the Golden Maiden Golden shes and directed it against Ling Feiyue.

    Immediately all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were smiling and all the other cultivators were in awe as several golden shes that were projecting lethal profound powers began to radiate from Zhao Songjin''s sword!

    There were altogether nine levels to the Beautiful Maiden Swordy and anyone that was able to attain to the eighth level was considered to be a genius practitioner of the Beautiful Maiden Swordy.

    The lethal golden swords of the Golden Maiden Golden shes would be able to cut down most opposing cultivators!

    When the many cultivators saw the Golden Maiden Golden shes, they immediately knew that the future Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin was a genius cultivator that they should stay steer in the future!

    Zhao Songjin smirked as she shouted, "Ling Feiyue! You have better disyed your Unrighteous Moon Profound Force as your profound defense or I will rip through your clothes in front of all the cultivators in this hall and I shall shame you in public view of everyone!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly as runic lights began to sh on her raven ck robe and everyone was startled. It was a no brainer that her robe was a rare celestial robe that was nearly indestructible.

    When Yuan Ji saw the runic markings on her celestial robe, he began to curse her silently. "She is too rich¡­andme¡­"

    In the Celestial Realm, celestial robes were even rarer than divine swords and it was worth more than ten heaven-step divine swords!

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly leapt into the air enveloped by her profound golden aura but it was not the Unrighteous Moon Profound Force that she was disying.

    Rather she had raised her heaven-step divine sword with both her hands as her golden animus began to form several circr afterimages of her swords as she sent dozens of phantom swords to rain upon Zhao Songjin!

    These phantom swords were formed from the sheer condensation of her profound power and was not sword energies. Although it was a limited in range but it was powerful if Ling Feiyue could unleash it at point nk.

    "This is my Thousand Raining Swords of my Flying Spirit Sword Art. I believe that I have told Xue Qianxue a hundred years ago that once I have mastered my Thousand Raining Swords, the eighth level of her Beautiful Maiden Swordy will be broken by my sword stance."

    After Ling Feiyue had just ended her sentence, the phantom golden swords of Zhao Songjin were allpletely shattered by the hundreds of phantom silver flying swords that were unleashed by her.

    At the same time that Zhao Songjin had yelled aloud when hundreds of phantom swords had flown into her, the phantom swords had also exploded into many thunderous outbursts of shockwaves when it hadnded.

    In less than three blinks of an eye, Zhao Songjin''s golden animus had given way and she was sent flying off to the back again.

    The destruction that was caused by the Thousand Raining Swords was so devastating that it dug several holes on the ground, destroying the reinforced celestial stabs that wereid.

    This time round even the most nonchnt golden celestials were stunned by Ling Feiyue''s disy of her sword art.

    "This¡­"

    "Is this sword art even considered to be from this world?"

    "The sword art of the Celestial Orthodox Sect is broken¡­"

    "How is it possible?"

    "Great Saintess Ling Feiyue has just defeated Zhao Songjin¡­"

    This time round, many of the cultivators were even respectfully adding Great Saintess to Ling Feiyue''s celestial title instead of simply calling her Ling Feiyue or Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji was blinking his eyes. He did not expect Ling Feiyue to have mastered the mystical level of her Flying Spirit Sword Art. Usually thest stance of any profound arts was only possible in theory and was not thought possible.

    But Ling Feiyue seemed to have crossed that gap all of a sudden.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had realized why and he was saying unhappily to Xiang Li. "Howe Feiyue''s sword spirit is so powerful while you are so weak?"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly realized that it was Ling Feiyue''s sword spirit that had enabled her to cross the impossible barrier.

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "Actually I am more powerful but you have not realized it yet. Also, she is a genius while you are not."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Even Xue Qianxue was looking a little sheepish as she was heard muttering. "s! I am still so far from my Flying Sword Maidens. Ling Feiyue''s swordy is now superior to me¡­"

    In the meantime Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had caught hold of the unconscious Zhao Songjin as she said to her prot¨¦g¨¦s. "She is alright and just need a little rest. Bring her inside first."

    After giving her instructions to the prot¨¦g¨¦s, Han Yuchi was now staring coldly at Ling Feiyue. "You have dared to injure and bully my prot¨¦g¨¦. Today if I don''t teach you a lesson, I am not going to rest our feuds!"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "I am not afraid of you!"

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi had immediately wrapped herself in a bright golden animus and her golden animus was forming into the shape of a battle maiden.

    It was the most powerful divine profound art of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the Sacred Maiden Profound Art!

    The Sacred Maiden Profound Art was one of the most powerful offensive power profound arts and it was more so if the cultivator was a great saintess like Han Yuchi.

    Ling Feiyue put her sword aside as she said indifferently, "Then I shall use my Six Realms Divine Art to fight against your Sacred Maiden Profound Art."

    The golden animus that was around Ling Feiyue was slowly withdrawing until it formed a bright dark outline around her. It did not mean that Ling Feiyue''s profound strength or profound aura was weakening but rather it was because it was a special characteristic of the internal profound art. The stronger an internal profound art cultivator was, the thinner and brighter their animus was.

    Ling Feiyue was obviously mustering all her profound strength for her uing exchange with Han Yuchi.

    While Ling Feiyue and Han Yuchi were mustering their profound strength for their showdown, Yuan Ji was feeling extremely miserable.

    It was because he was supposed to distract the attention of everyone in the great hall while the two sister saintesses would find an opportunity to rescue Xue Qianxue.

    But all of a sudden the appearance of Ling Feiyue had made Xue Qianxue a constant attention. Moreover Xue Qianxue was surrounded by numerous golden celestials. It was almost impossible for anyone to approach her.

    Yuan Ji had suddenly realized that Ling Feiyue seemed to have unwittingly taken the rap for him and that his original n was simply rubbish and impossible to execute.

    At this moment Ling Feiyue and Han Yuchi had struck against each other palms with a thunderous explosive impact that sent a big booming shockwave around them, causing many of the weaker cultivators to take several steps backward and even the great hall was vibrating.

    Han Yuchi gasped softly as she stumbled five steps back while Xue Qianxue was immediately by her side to support her as she said anxiously, "Master, are you alright? Let Qianxue fight her for you."

    "Qianxue, be careful. Her profound strength is strong." Han Yuchi coughed weakly.

    Xue Qianxue nodded quietly before she hummed coldly to Ling Feiyue, "It isn''t because our sect''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art is weaker than your Six Realms Divine Art. Let me meet your Six Realms Divine Art instead!"

    Han Yuchi smirked out, "My Sacred Maiden Profound Art is only at the seventh rank but Qianxue''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art is at the eighth rank. Just you watch!"

    Ling Feiyue said coldly, "I am waiting."

    There was a burst of golden animus on Xue Qianxue as a battle maiden began to form from her profound aura.

    All of a sudden the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were all gasping excitingly as the battle maiden sprouted wings and an external pressure began to exert heavily on everyone.

    Even Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi was gasping with disbelief, "Qianxue, when did you attain the Ninth Rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art?!"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly to her master, "I just realize only."

    Han Yuchi: ¡­

    "The Ninth Rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art¡­"

    "Xue Qianxue is the first cultivator in the entire history of the Celestial Orthodox Sect to have attained to the ninth rank¡­"

    "She is indeed the genius among the geniuses¡­"

    "Does it mean that Xue Qianxue is now unbeatable?"

    Xue Qianxue turned to say coolly to Ling Feiyue, "Ai~ I''m afraid that your eighth rank of your Six Realms Divine Art may be a littlecking now."

    Ling Feiyue smiled indifferently, "Is that so?"

    All of a sudden there was a golden light that was at Ling Feiyue''s natal core.

    When everyone saw that it was a golden core that was revolving at her natal core, there were shocks and disbeliefs.

    She hummed softly, "Although my Six Realms Divine Art is still at the eighth rank but I have already cultivated the golden natal core. Who win or lose is still a little early to say, don''t you think so?"

    "Golden core!"

    "Ling Feiyue had managed to create a golden core for her cultivation core?"

    "She has found the True Sacred Saint Profound Art or she has found another divine skill that was capable of creating a golden core?"

    Even Yuan Ji was startled as he blinked his eyes. He had never expected that Ling Feiyue would be able to cultivate a golden core in a matter of two months.

    He was forced to admit to Xiang Li, "She is really a genius¡­and a rich cultivator¡­"

    Xiang Li was almost in tears as she ignored Yuan Ji, "Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue. Who do I choose to be my new master?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    All of a sudden all the upper echelons of the seven major orthodox ns were all staring in the direction of Ling Feiyue and that included Han Yuchi.

    It was because the leadership of the seven major orthodox knew of a terrible secret that few others know and it was that the golden core of a cultivator could be absorbed into their own cultivation natal core by killing the golden core cultivator.

    Thousands of years ago, there were actually many golden core cultivators but most were either killed or had ascended to the Immortal Realm, leaving the cultivation method of the golden core a great mystery for the present cultivators.

    With a golden core, it was a lot easier for the cultivators to be a great saint or even ascended to the Immortal Realm.

    All of a sudden many of the great saints and golden saints of the seven major orthodox ns were all looking at Ling Feiyue with a murderous intention.

    In fact these cultivators could no longer sit by the fence and they had the intentions to intervene now!

    And that included Saintess Jian Yuluo, Little Princess and the sect masters of the seven major orthodox ns!

    Saintess Jian Yuluo was the first to speak, "Sacred Maiden Qianxue, let your sister here assist you. Against a demoness like Ling Feiyue, there is no need for you to fight her one to one!"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong, the sect master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion was alsoughing jovially, "That is right. If we take her one on one then we will have fallen into her trick¡­"

    "Since she has delivered into our hands, what are we all waiting for?" Great Saint Jian Kang, sect master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor immediately said at the same time.

    "That''s right!"

    All of a sudden many swords were brandished in the ranks of the seven major orthodox ns!

    Well, not all the seven major orthodox ns.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei and her Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect continued to be indifferent. As a matter of fact, Saintess Fang Zhenfei was even looking in the other way!

    Yuan Ji was startled when he saw that the leaderships of the seven major orthodox ns were all brandishing their swords all of a sudden and he was perplexed.

    What was causing their change in reactions?

    Xiang Li said coolly, "They want to obtain Ling Feiyue''s golden natal core for their own cultivation."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he was enraged. "They didn''t help the Celestial Orthodox Sect earlier but when they saw Feiyue''s golden core, they are now reacting. Is this the so call righteous way of the orthodox ns?!"

    Xue Qianxue had naturally witnessed the hostilities that were being disyed by the seven major orthodox ns against Ling Feiyue and she had turned around to say unhappily to them. "Today is my personal duel with Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. Anyone that wishes to fight Ling Feiyue before me has to fight with me first!"

    Han Yuchi hummed coldly to the leaders of the other patriarch ns, "I am afraid that you have to wait. My Qianxue will definitely be able to settle Ling Feiyue with the Ninth Rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. So naturally, there is no need for anyone to aid my Qianxue."

    "Haha, we are only trying to help¡­"

    "We are afraid that Sacred Maiden Qianxue may be injured and her cultivation progression may suffer¡­"

    "Surely there is no need for the host to act. Your allies will act in your stead today¡­"

    "We are trying to be helpful¡­"

    It was not only Yuan Ji who was feeling a little perplexed. The cultivators in the gold, silver and bronze seats were all feeling a little perplexed by the reactions of the leadership of the patriarch ns to act on Ling Feiyue now.

    "Maybe Ling Feiyue is a threat to them?"

    "Maybe she has insulted their honors?"

    "Or maybe they are trying to protect Xue Qianxue?"

    "Sacred Maiden Qianxue is indeed so popr. There are so many patriarch cultivators that are afraid that she may be injured¡­"

 Chapter 80 Ling Feiyue Vs. Xue Qianxue (2)

    Xue Qianxue repeated coldly as her golden eyes shed across the great hall, "I don''t wish to say again. Anyone that wants to fight Ling Feiyue has to fight with me first!"

    Now that Xue Qianxue had warned everyone not to interfere in her duel, the cultivators from the seven major orthodox ns began to hesitate.

    When they saw that the thirty odd unorthodox golden celestials on Ling Feiyue were also pointing their swords at them, everyone decided to adopt a wait and see approach first.

    After all, no one would like to have a taste of Xue Qianxue''s ninth rank Sacred Maiden Profound Art first and moreover they would also be attacked by the thirty odd golden celestials that were on Ling Feiyue''s side.

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Qianxue, this hall is a little too small for us. I don''t want to be used of destroying your sect''s great hall and I am too poor to pay for the damages. Why don''t we fight outside?"

    When she had said that, Ling Feiyue and her followers had shed out of the great hall without waiting for Xue Qianxue to reply her.

    Before anyone could advise Xue Qianxue, she had already followed Ling Feiyue outside in a blink of an eye!

    Immediately tens of thousands of cultivators from the bronze seats had all followed suit. After all, no one wanted to miss the epic duel that was between these two beautiful saintesses!

    Yuan Ji was naturally one of the first to dash out of the hall; he really did not want to see either one of them got killed by the other.

    When he was outside, he was just in time to see Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had already raised their palms and they were already charging headlong against each other!

    Even though he was unwilling to let the two maidens see him at the same time or he would be caught in a situation that he could not exin and may even have a disastrous consequence but if he did not intervene now, these two maidens would be soon be on each other throat. One of them may die or even both!

    Out of desperation, he shed into their midst as he swung his divine sword.

    "Qianxue, Feiyue! Stop!"

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were power cultivators and if Yuan Ji did not disy his divine sword to ward off their profound powers, he would be killed by them in the next instant. And he could tell that they were using 100% of their profound strength in order to raise their profound arts to its highest level.

    There was a divine rainbow halo around Yuan Ji divine sword as he raised his sword energies to the highest level that he could muster. This was the result of the divine harmony with his divine sword. All of a sudden there was a double halo around his divine sword that startled all the onlookers, including Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Usually if a cultivator had managed to divine harmonize with their divine sword, there would only be a single halo. A single halo was hard enough and for a divine sword to have double halo, the cultivator must bepletely be one with his sword.

    Now this was easily said than done and that was why it was actually a miracle to see it happening before their very eyes now.

    Divine swords have their own sentient and every divine sword is unique. Although one may be one with the sword but to be in perfect harmony with their divine sword, it is still nearly an impossible thing.

    Some divine swords were forged thousands of years ago and it was impossible for their new owner to truly know exactly what their divine swords had been through. Because of theck of empathy for their divine swords, it was considered an impossible thing to create a double halo even though it had been theorized by many of the ancient sages in the past.

    Even Yuan Ji was quite startled that his divine sword suddenly had a double halo when he was disying it.

    "I and Xiang Li are one? This is the Perfect Divine Harmony?"

    Xiang Li chuckled shyly, "That''s right. I know that you want to bang Feiyue and Qianxue."

    Yuan Ji could not believe what he was hearing from his soul sea but he could not resist an exasperated reply to Xiang Li, "What is this going to do with you¡­"

    Xiang Liughed, "We are in perfect harmony on this."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    When Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue saw the double halo of a divine sword that was wielded by a bearded man in front of them, they were quite startled but they had also immediately saw through his disguise in the next instant.

    Ling Feiyue was very familiar with Yuan Ji''s divine sword and his attack posture while Xue Qianxue could never forget his familiar voice that was full of tenderness.

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue stammered out at the same time as they quickly withdrew their fists when they were almost upon each other.

    "Why are you here?" Both maidens said at the same time.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were startled that they were asking Ji Yuan the exact thing.

    "She knows you?" Again, the two maidens had said the exact same thing.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Yuan Ji stammered, "There is no time to exin now. Before the cultivators from the seven major orthodox ns are here, I must take Qianxue away. As for you, Feiyue¡­I want you to quickly flee the scene."

    The thousands of cultivators from the bronze, silver and gold seats were stilling out of the great hall in their thousands and they were blocking the helpless cultivators from the prestige seats that were still struck inside.

    Xue Qianxue was delighted, "Ji Yuan, you are here for me?"

    Ling Feiyue said mncholy as she looked a little lost at Yuan Ji, "It is no wonder why you didn''t want to tell me¡­"

    Yuan Ji quickly said, "Hurry, we must all leave now! This is a perfect opportunity for us all to escape. I will exinter¡­"

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had ignored Yuan Ji as they suddenly mmed their palms together with a thunderous impact that created a powerful shockwave around them.

    At the same time the thirty odd air borne unorthodox cultivators were all throwing bombs from their flying mounts that exploded into dark smog at the open space tform that they were at!

    Very soon, the entire tform was shrouded in dark smog and all the orthodox cultivators were startled.

    "What is going on?"

    "I can''t see anything at all¡­"

    "Even my divine sense can''t prate through this dark smog¡­"

    "Ling Feiyue is too despicable! She knows that she can''t win Xue Qianxue and she is ying dirty!"

    When the dark smog hadnded, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had both grabbed Yuan Ji at the same time as they shed to Ling Feiyue''s flying mount that was stationary nearby!

    Yuan Ji was startled by their co-ordinated movements and they were soon in the air in the next blink of an eye.

    "This? What is going on?" Yuan Ji was looking a little stupefied.

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly, "Feiyue is here to rescue me. That''s why."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji stammered for words, "I thought that the two of you have a feud with each other?"

    Xue Qianxue winked at him, "Ever since our duel a hundred years ago, we have since be the best of friends."

    Yuan Ji was stunned, "Best of friends?!"

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "That''s right. I have requested for her to help me. But I have not really expected Feiyue will be so bold as to reallye."

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "If I have note then I will never know that Ji Yuan will actually be here to rescue you. So how did the two of you meet again?"

    Xue Qianxueughed softly, "And how did you manage to find him too?"

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes, "It is a long story. I tell you when we havended."

    Xue Qianxue turned to Yuan Ji to ask shyly, "Ji Yuan, I may no longer be able to return to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. If I be an unorthodox cultivator, will you still love me as before?"

    Ling Feiyue sarcastically interrupted, "He won''t want to be with you. Because he will tell you that the two of you are from different worlds and can never be together."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he could only manage a bitter smile. It was because that was what he had told Ling Feiyue before they had broken up.

    But to Xue Qianxue he replied firmly, "No matter, I will not leave you or despise you."

    When Ling Feiyue heard him, she was trembling lightly and looked away while Xue Qianxue was looking at Yuan Ji with an emotional sentimental look.

    "So the two of you are actually working together?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    Xue Qianxue nodded.

    She soon exined to him that Ling Feiyue would purposely challenge her to a duel and as soon as they were outside, they would begin their exit ns. The signal for action would be when they had first shed against each other. That was why the minute that Ling Feiyue''s followers were outside, they had actually taken flight and were waiting for the signal to happen so that they could throw down the smog bombs.

    When Yuan Ji had heard their ns, he could not help praising their ns. "It is actually much more brilliant than my own ns. But this n has a w. The executor must have an iron gut to storm the Celestial Orthodox Sect and must be prepared for all the possible contingencies. In reality, this n is actually extremely risky toplete."

    Then he added with as soft sigh, "Ling Feiyue is actually willing to risk her life for you?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "We are the best of friends."

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly turned around to say with bleary eyes, "Maybe after today, we may no longer be the best of friends. I like Ji Yuan and I want to be with him."

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Feiyue, you¡­"

    But she was soon smiling to her, "We did say that no matter who manage to find him first, we will always be the best of friends. Have you forgotten about it?"

    Ling Feiyue: ...

    Yuan Jimented bitterly, "What for? I will soon be a dead man in a month time."

    Ling Feiyue stared at him with a firm look, "Then I shall follow you to your grave!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue was startled but she was soon smiling, "No matter, we are still the best of friends or else why will youe for me?"

    Then she turned to say to Yuan Ji shyly, "You have reallye for me. So what is your n?"

    Yuan Ji replied awkwardly, "Actually my n is very simple and not worth mentioning."

    Ling Feiyue could not resist a soft chuckle, "I bet that he is probably going to be a dead man if his n had been followed through."

    Yuan Ji frowned before he said shamelessly, "Not really. With my skills, I will probably thrash all my opponents and rescue Qianxue."

    Xue Qianxue took a look at his straight face before she chuckled jovially, "You sound like you do not have a n at all."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I do have a n. While I distract everyone, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue will rescue you." He pointed out with an awkward look. "But before I can execute my n, it is interrupted by Feiyue. If not, you will be able to witness my n."

    "How do you n on getting yourself out of the great hall?" Xue Qianxue asked him curiously. "Are you really going to thrash all the thousands of cultivators?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he said shamelessly, "Of course I am. To rescue you, I am willing to do anything."

    "And that includes lying?" Xue Qianxue chuckled as she held onto her belly.

    Even Ling Feiyue wasughing jovially when she had heard Xue Qianxue.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Naturally I do have my trump cards but I am not sharing."

    When he saw that Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were stillughing at him, he added bitterly. "If I have thirty golden celestials under my leadership and enough wealth to buy a flying mount, I can definitelye up with an even more impressive n."

    Xiang Li was alsoughing jovially in his soul sea, "Shameless¡­you''re too shameless¡­"

    Yuan Ji said to Xiang Li with a straight face, "I can only tell you that my rescue n has been a great sess. After all, we have got Qianxue out now."

 Chapter 81 Yuan Ji Vs. The Two Goddess Maidens

    Ling Feiyue had led Yuan Ji and Xue Qianxue to a nearby deste mountain peak.

    "We shallnd here first." Ling Feiyue said.

    At the same time she said to her followers, "I still need your help to lead our pursuers away from us. I thank the efforts of everyone that is with me today. I will return my gratitude to everyone in the future."

    But her followers were all shouting fervently, "It is our duty and honor to serve our Dark Mistress!"

    With that they had quickly flown away.

    Yuan Ji was startled, "We are still in the vicinity of the Holy Maiden Peaks. Is it safe here?"

    It was because he could see sevenrge profound aerial ships that were apanied by hundreds of flying mounts that were in hot pursue of them.

    Ling Feiyue returned a gentle smile as she shook her head, "Definitely not safe."

    "Then why?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "I need Feiyue''s help to remove the profound tracer that my master has nted within my soul sea or else we won''t be able to get far."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he understood immediately.

    "Also there is a hot spring here, heh! I will like to take a dip in the hot spring for a while." Xue Qianxue winked at him. "It may take a few hours. Why don''t you find a spot to rest first?"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly remembered that Xue Qianxue liked to dip herself in a bathtub for long hours.

    "Alright." He said with a weak smile. He did not expect Xue Qianxue to have the mood for a hot spring dip at this critical time.

    "Feiyue, let me show you this hot spring that I had mentioned to you before. The waters are really fragrance and you will surely love it as much as I do!"

    Ling Feiyue nodded gently before she turned to Yuan Ji to give a stern look, "No peeping."

    Yuan Ji was half amused, "I am a man of culture. This is beneath me. Don''t forget that I am also renowned as the Gentleman of the Sword¡­"

    "And you have peeped at Qianxue a hundred years ago?" Ling Feiyue frowned with disbelief.

    "I was forced to do so and you should know." Yuan Ji quickly said with great awkwardness.

    Xue Qianxue was flushing shyly as she grabbed Ling Feiyue away, "Let''s go! That is all in the past now. Come, we have many things to catch up on."

    Removing the profound tracer was extremely easy now that Ling Feiyue was here. It would only take mere minutes given theirbined profound strength. Xue Qianxue was actually very eager to find out from Ling Feiyue how she had managed to find Ji Yuan again.

    Actually Ling Feiyue was also eager to find out about Xue Qianxue''s ounts.

    Yuan Ji pretended to be indifferent as he watched the two of them walked away. When they were out of his sight, he began to mutter silently. "I wonder if Feiyue is still upset with me?"

    He really had fond memories when he was with Ling Feiyue in the Lotus Sword Mansion. He had not expected that he would see her so soon again. But he was reluctant to reveal his feelings for her.

    He began to rub his chin as he mumbled, "They are actually friends? Now this is really unexpected."

    All of a sudden he was frowning, "Did Qianxue say to Feiyue that they have many things to catch up on? I wonder what they will be gossiping about?"

    "What if they are talking behind my back?"

    Xiang Li had suddenly popped into his soul sea as she suggested excitingly, "Why don''t we go and take a look?"

    Yuan Ji frowned coldly, "They are having a dip in the hot spring. This isn''t a good idea. Moreover I''m a Gentleman of the Sword."

    "If you keep your sword then you are not a Gentleman of the Sword anymore." Xiang Li chuckled.

    "Don''t beme, alright?" Yuan Ji rebuked her unhappily. "I will never do such a thing¡­"

    Xiang Li began to look dejected and had a disappointing look. But just as she was about to fade away, Yuan Ji suddenly said. "Xiang Li, do you think that Feiyue is really a maiden or a man? What if I am made a cuckold? I should check on them, am I right?"

    "That is right! What are you waiting for? Go! Go!" Xiang Li eximed excitingly and her eyes were beaming with great anticipations.

    Yuan Ji did not need any further prompting and he was soon shing in the direction where Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had disappeared earlier.

    Soon he was up onto the cliff and had spotted Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue in the hot spring.

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Why did you go so far away for?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "They are all high level saintess. This distance is safe."

    "But didn''t you say that you want to hear what they are gossiping about?" Xiang Li said unhappily.

    "That is secondary. The most important thing is to find out if Feiyue is a maiden or not." Yuan Ji was already drooling as he said to Xiang Li. It was because it was too obvious that Ling Feiyue was a maiden as he watched the two goddess maidens.

    Xiang Li was also drooling as she watched the two maidens in the hot spring, "s, I really don''t know which one to choose to be my new mistress¡­"

    "Well Xiang Li, I''m sorry to disappoint you but you are struck with me now. We have a perfect divine harmony, you know." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    "Yes but soon you will be dead and I need to find myself a new owner." Xiang Li chuckled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Before I die, I will tell the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce that I have a sentient divine sword. I''m sure that he will be really interested in you."

    "Eeekkkk!" Xiang Li was horrified by the thought.

    Yuan Ji was soon quietly looking at the two maidens and he was soon in his own thoughts. There was nothing dirty in his mind at the moment and he was just appreciating the two great beauties.

    He was actually paying more attention to Ling Feiyue and was looking at her every expression.

    It was because although he had broken up with her but half of his heart was actually unwilling to do so. Therefore he wanted to know if she was really upset with him.

    "Is she upset with me or not? She is obviously cold toward me earlier but why did she say that she still like me and will even be following me to the grave?" He was sighing. Sometimes he did not understand women and their hearts which were often full of contradictions.

    "Maybe she is just trying to break Qianxue''s heart because she obviously knows that we are together? But Qianxue doesn''t seem to be angry with her. As a matter of fact, they seem to be getting quite well along. Hmm, I wonder what they are chatting about?"

    "Maybe we should go take a closer look?" Xiang Li offered a suggestion as she gave him a helpful and innocent look.

    But instead of replying to her, Yuan Ji had actually walked away!

    He began to find a quiet spot under a tree to meditate. Although it appeared that he was meditating but he was actually thinking of Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue at the same time.

    "They are really best friends?"

    But after sorting out his thoughts, he had finally decided that he must not reciprocate Ling Feiyue at all costs. It was because he was afraid that she may decide to challenge the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower after his death. Worse, she may even drag Xue Qianxue into it.

    "Ling Feiyue may be a gentle maiden but her guts are really bold as the iron guts of a donkey."

    Now that he had finally sorted out his thoughts, he felt more at peace with himself.

    But after meditating for three hours, he was starting to curse. "Are they ducks? They are actually in the hot spring for so long?"

    As he cursed them halfway, he could hear their approach and they were giggling at the same time.<sub> </sub>

    He soon saw them holding hands together and his heart was suddenly pounding rapidly at their dazzling beauty. "This is too sinful." He thought.

    Xue Qianxue asked him all of a sudden, "Ji Yuan, what are you nning to do next?"

    Yuan Ji did not want to lie to her so he replied, "I am going back to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. It is because I think that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is Xia Jiajia. I need to talk to her first before my duel."

    "You are going to be a dead man soon and yet you are still thinking of her? What a romantic cultivator." Ling Feiyue hummed coldly. "Are you thinking of rekindling your romantic rtionship with her?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Actually I dare not. I just want to hear her exnation. If not I can''t focus fully on my duel."

    "I do have a way for you to win your duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Do you want to know?" Ling Feiyue asked him coolly.

    Yuan Ji raised his eyes before asking curiously. "You have a way? What is it?"

    "Why don''t you seduce the two saintesses from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and request for their aids? They can be your spies in the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. At the very least, they may even reveal the weaknesses of the divine arts of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to you."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You are asking me to seduce two innocent maidens so that I can make use of them to win the duel? I guess that you don''t know me well enough. I will never do anything like this¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him coldly, "Oh, is that so? I have heard the three of you very loud and clear when you are in bed together."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He had a stunned thought, "She didn''t leave that night?"

    "You must be mistaken. I have actually kicked them off my bed that very night." He said with great righteousness. This was the truth. He did kick them off his bed that very night and did not do anything to them.

    "Then can you make a blood oath that you did not have any rtionships with them at all?" Ling Feiyue stared at him coldly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Although he did not have any rtionship with them that night but he did have several rtionships with them over the next couple of months. So how could he make a blood oath on this?

    All of a sudden he had an idea, "I can make a blood oath that I did not have a rtionship with them that night."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly as she interrupted him, "Why make a blood oath for that night? Maybe Sister Feiyue is mistaken that night. Why don''t you make a blood oath that you didn''t touch them ever. This is more believable."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Finally he returned a resigned soft, "It is against my Dao to make use of them to win a duel."

    Ling Feiyue nodded and said gently, "Finally you are willing to speak the truth."

    "I am always speaking the truth." Yuan Ji said with a straight face. "When did I ever lie to you?"

    "You say that you are only toying with me. Is that the truth?" Ling Feiyue was suddenly looking at him with bleary tears. "I want you to say it again in front of my Sister Qianxue so that she will know what kind of a person are you."

    Yuan Ji waspletely stupefied by her question.

    He had a light tremble as he looked at her. Finally he wasughing bitterly and he was clenching his fists, "Yes, I lie. So what? You deserve a better cultivation partner."

    Then he turned to look at Xue Qianxue, "Qianxue, I was too reckless back then. If I can return to the past, I will nevery my hands on you¡­"

    Xue Qianxue put her fingers on his cheek as she caressed him gently with a tender smile, "I don''t regret it. Why are you regretting? I have a good news for you. I am carrying your child now."

    When Yuan Ji had heard her, he was stunned. "What?!"

    Xue Qianxue nodded as she tenderly ce her fingers on her belly, "I have temporary suppressed the growth of our child with my profound strength."

    "Aren''t you d?" She turned to Yuan Ji to ask him tenderly.

    Yuan Ji stammered, "I am d. Very d. This¡­this is too sudden¡­"

    "But s, I may not have the chance to see my child." He began toment softly.

    "We will bring this child up." Xue Qianxue smiled.

    "We?" Yuan Ji had a perplexed look as he looked at her.

    "Sister Feiyue and I will bring our child up." Xue Qianxue smiled. "Therefore you have to take us as your consorts."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "It will be unfair to Feiyue. Why don''t we discuss this after my duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly moved her fingers from his face and he could suddenly feel her profound strength behind his back as she chuckled softly, "Ji Yuan, today you are not going anywhere until you have bowed before the Heavens and the Earth to take the two of us as your consorts. Even though you may be able to handle one of us alone but I can promise you that with Sister Feiyue and I together, we are more than enough to handle you. Therefore if you are thinking of running away or even thinking of resisting us, you can very well forget about it."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "A hundred years ago, you have managed to escape from us but we can promise you that in this deste mountain peak, you have nowhere to run. And don''t think of even trying to get to my flying mount before us because she only listens to me."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "From today onward, you have to follow our rules for you or else you can''t me us for being impolite to our lord. What do you say?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Say whatever you want. Even though I want to protest but you can''t expect me to thrash the mother of my child, am I right?"

    "Good!" Xue Qianxue pped her hands delightfully. "From today onward, you are not to mention your beard or entertain any lofty thoughts of getting back your ugly beard again. You shall stay beardless forever."

    Yuan Ji said with great indignant, "You can insult me but you cannot insult my beautiful beard! I can take the two of you as my consorts but you have to follow my rules. After all, I am an alpha male. I can''t allow the two of you to trample upon my pride just like this..."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Sister Qianxue, did you hear that? He is willing to take the two of us as his consorts today as long as we listen to his house rules."

    "Yes, I did." Xue Qianxue giggled as she looked at Yuan Ji wryly. "From today onward, we will be your consorts."

    Yuan Ji was stunned when he had heard them. Did he just fall into their cleverly worded speech and now he had to take them as his consorts?

    "By the way¡­" She winked at him. "In case you do not know. There is no remedy for your beard if you have lost your beard during your bodily transformation. In all the ancient celestial texts, there are no remedies at all. Therefore please stop thinking about your ugly beard for goodness sake!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji was stunned by the bad news that was revealed to him.

    Soon after, a rather dejected Yuan Ji had taken Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as his consorts as they bowed before the Heavens and the Earth.

    "May the Heavens and the Earth be our witnesses. I, Ji Yuan, hereby take Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as my beloved consorts¡­"

    Yuan Ji did not stay dejected for too long. It was because he was very happy that very night as he shared a makeshift bed with the two goddess maidens.

    The happiest person was not Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue as they finally resolved all their differences and misunderstanding but it was actually Xiang Li who was watching their battles throughout the night.

    "Feiyue, didn''t I break your heart? Why are you still willing to forgive me?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    "Because we have an unhappy past three lifetimes. I hope for a happier ending for us in this lifetime." Ling Feiyue smiled shyly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "This is actually Xiang Li''s lies¡­" He had decided to keep this in his heart.

    "This is too intense for me to take¡­and too sinful¡­." Xiang Li giggled throughout the night.

 Chapter 82 A Startling Discovery

    Matriarch Han Yuchi was alone in the sacred meditating room of the Celestial Orthodox Sect when she was suddenly alerted to a sudden movement by her extraordinary divine sense.

    "Who is that?" She responded sternly.

    At the same time she was also slightly startled.

    The sacred meditating room was in the inner peaks of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and it was surrounded by many formidable defense arrays. It was almost impossible for a stranger to enter without raising any rms.

    But unfortunately for the intruder, it was impossible to surprise her.

    "Master, it is your Xue''Er." Xue Qianxue had stepped forth from the shadows.

    Han Yuchi was startled, "Qianxue, it is really you?" She was suddenly delighted when she saw that it was Xue Qianxue.

    Xue Qianxue nodded lightly.

    "Aren''t you captured by Ling Feiyue? I''ve been looking all over for you. I''ve even lost your profound signature¡­"

    "I have removed it with the help of Ling Feiyue." Xue Qianxue said simply.

    Han Yuchi was startled, "Why did you remove it for?"

    "Because I don''t want to be imprisoned anymore." Xue Qianxue replied nonchntly. "From now onward, I am no longer a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    "Qianxue, my Xue''Er. We can discuss over this. You can still retain your Sacred Maiden position. Alright?" Han Yuchi smiled.

    The reasons why she was making such a concession now was because after Xue Qianxue had disyed the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the highest rank, she had be the only sacred maiden in the entire history of the Celestial Orthodox Sect to have achieved this feat.

    If Xue Qianxue could be a Great Saintess in the future, the Celestial Orthodox Sect may even have an immortal cultivator among its ranks. Therefore Xue Qianxue was considered to be too precious to be given up now.

    "Is that so?" Xue Qianxue said indifferently before she threw a scroll to Han Yuchi. "I am returning the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Han Yuchi was startled. "Please consider, will you? Your master misses you."

    Xue Qianxue heaved a soft sigh, "I''m grateful to master for your upbringing and teaching but I have already made up my mind to be with Ji Yuan."

    "Ji Yuan?" Han Yuchi frowned. This name was a little familiar but she could not remember where she had heard of this name before.

    "Ji Yuan is actually Yuan Ji. He is the one that you have almost tortured to death!" Xue Qianxue said quietly.

    "He is not dead yet?" Han Yuchi was unhappy when she had heard that.

    But she was soon humming coldly, "But he will be dead man soon enough. Don''t forget that he has a duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. A mere fifth realm cultivator like him isn''t going to survive."

    "Fifth realm cultivator?" Xue Qianxue lit a faint smile. "He is a seventh realm cultivator. He will have a fighting chance."

    Han Yuchi was startled, "He is a saint?" But she soonposed herself to smile coldly, "No one is able to win a duel with the Divine Pce Master. He is dreaming!"

    "He is Sword Saint Ji Yuan so he will definitely be able to find a way to win. I have faith in him." Xue Qianxue said firmly.

    All of a sudden Han Yuchi had turned ashen. Now she had remembered why she had found Ji Yuan''s name to be so familiar. Sword Saint Ji Yuan was said to be a genius cultivator with the sword and she had long heard of his renown. Moreover he was also Fairy Ye Chengxi''s master.

    A seventh realm sword saint was definitely more formidable than most other seventh realm cultivators.

    Han Yuchi had suddenly remembered that Ji Yuan had the reputation as the fastest sword in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    But she was soon humming, "He is nothing but a lecherous man that preys on his own prot¨¦g¨¦s! And now he has even set his sight on my Qianxue!"

    Xue Qianxue was not upset. Instead she quietly said, "Master. There is something I ought to let you know. It is about Zhao Songjin. She is no longer a chaste maiden. Therefore she can''t practice the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. Moreover she is also a spy for the Evil Cultivation Pce and she is in cahoots with Jin Yilong. Whether you believe me or not, it is up to your discretion. There are many other moles here that are in cahoots with Zhao Songjin. You won''t be pleased with this. Even the Little Princess of the Evil Cultivation Pce is involved and she is determined to obtain the Sacred Maiden Profound Art."

    Yuan Ji had already told Xue Qianxue all that he knew.

    "Really?!" Han Yuchi was horrified. "Songjin is a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Evil Cultivation Pce?!"

    But before she could question Xue Qianxue further, she had already left quietly.

    Han Yuchi was left to stammer with shock, "This is impossible¡­and she is in cahoots with the Mystic Profound Pavilion as well¡­"

    After a while she decided to look for Zhao Songjin.

    A holy maiden panicky asked her, "Matriarch, where are you going?"

    Han Yuchi stared coldly at her, "Who are you to question me? Don''t tell me that you are going to inform Zhao Songjin on my whereabouts?"<sub> </sub>

    The holy maiden quickly kneeled down, "Your prot¨¦g¨¦ dares not."

    "Then you shall knee here until I am back."

    Then she turned to say to the dozens of holy maidens in the vicinity. "None of you shall make a move too! Or don''t me me for dealing you the sect punishments on the spot!"

    With that she had hurried to Zhao Songjin''s abode.

    -

    -

    -

    Zhao Songjin and Jin Yilong wereughing as they yed on the bed.

    And this ying required that they had no clothing on them.

    "Yilong, you are really so bold. You dare toe to my abode in the middle of the night." Zhao Songjin gasped with pleasures as she teased Jin Yilong. Then she said dreamily, "But I''m so d that you havee."

    "Haha, you have really missed me. Don''t you?" Jin Yilong said proudly.

    Then he said, "It is really just a pity that Ling Feiyue ruins your sacred maiden ceremony or else I will be banging the sacred maiden now."

    "What is the hurry? Sooner orter I will be the sacred maiden and I will be in full control of the Celestial Orthodox Sect." Zhao Songjin was smiling. "If Xue Qianxue isn''t found in another seven days, I will be the sacred maiden anyway. So let''s hope that she is killed by Ling Feiyue¡­"

    "Songjin, what are you doing?!" It was Han Yuchi and she had barged into the bed chamber all of a sudden, shocking Zhao Songjin and Jin Yilong at the same time as they turned ashen with fright.

    Zhao Songjin quickly covered herself with the nket as she stared nkly. Why was there no one to inform her that the Matriarch was here? Were all her informers sleeping?

    Jin Yilong was panicky, "Matriarch Han, I can exin¡­"

    Han Yuchi interrupted coldly, "Where is there to exin about your misdeed? Jin Yilong! I have always known that you are a lecherous man but you can even be so bold as to sneak into my Celestial Orthodox Sect!"

    Jin Yilong had turned ashen and he was trembling. He had known that Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi''s temper was fiery. Moreover she was also a great saintess while he was only an initial tier saint. If she wanted to kill him, it would be all too easy.

    But to his surprise Han Yuchi said to him coldly, "You may leave first. Make sure no one knows about it!"

    Jin Yilong was startled that Han Yuchi was letting him off so easily. Without saying a word more, he quickly grabbed his clothes and ran off!

    Zhao Songjin was secretly hurt by his gesture as she silently sighed. "How can he be so heartless? He didn''t even take a single nce at me when he is running away..."

    "Songjin!" Han Yuchi had returned her cold gaze upon her. "I know that you are a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Evil Cultivation Pce. How dare you infiltrate the Celestial Orthodox Sect! To think that I have trusted you all these years!"

    When Zhao Songjin heard her, her beautiful eyes were startled and she had turnedpletely white. Even though she was a middle tier saintess but against her matriarch, she was just a speck of dust.

    Against the profound might of her matriarch''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art, she was really helpless. Moreover she had not fully recovered from her injuries from her exchange with Ling Feiyue.

    In that instant, the cold gaze of her matriarch had caused her to wet her bed and Zhao Songjin was truly frightened.

    "You have two choices now. Leave the Evil Cultivation Pce or die." Han Yuchi said coldly to her and her profound aura hadpletely suppressed Zhao Songjin.

    Han Yuchi continued, "If you are willing to leave the Evil Cultivation Pce, you can rest assure that you will still be the next Sacred Maiden and I will even give you the blessings to marry Jin Yilong. What do you think?"

    "I know that there are many moles of the Evil Cultivation Pce in here and even Little Princess is involved."

    Zhao Songjin stared nkly at Han Yuchi in shock. How did her matriarch know so much?

    "Your mission to obtain the Sacred Maiden Profound Art will only end up in failure and you will be punished. It is because only a chaste maiden can practice the Sacred Maiden Profound Art." Han Yuchi added coldly.

    Zhao Songjin was startled at this revtion and was speechless. After so many centuries of nning, she could not even practice the Sacred Maiden Profound Art even if she had the cultivation method in her hands?

    Finally she stammered weakly, "I can still be the sacred maiden if I betray the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    "Absolutely." Han Yuchi replied her. "Make your choice now."

    After a short hesitation Zhao Songjin trembled and said weakly, "I don''t wish to die. I will betray the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "Good! You are my worthy prot¨¦g¨¦." Han Yuchi smiled.

 Chapter 83 Jiajia, Is That You?

    A lone flying profound ship was cruising across the mountains when a flying divine beast that was manned by three golden celestials had suddenly crashnded on its deck.

    These three golden celestials that had dismounted on the deck were Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue and they hadnded on the profound ship of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Immediately the cultivators on the deck had unsheathed their swords to greet the three intruders.

    Many of the cultivators on the deck were even more startled when they had recognized that it was Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    "Aren''t they fighting with each other only a few days earlier?"

    "Why are they together?"

    Two golden celestials on the deck immediately asked, "Are you friends or foes?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "We are not here to fight. I like to meet Saintess Fang Zhenfei."

    As soon as he had said that, a veiled maiden in blue dress had stepped on the deck with a dozen more cultivators.

    Yuan Ji had recognized the veiled maiden in blue dress as Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    He quickly said as he looked nervously at her, "Can I speak with you alone?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei nodded lightly before she said to all her followers, "Go below the deck. Don''te up until I give you the orders."

    The dozens of cultivators acknowledged hermand and quickly disappeared below the deck.

    Once they were all gone, Saintess Fang Zhenfei began to ask. "What can I do for you?"

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue hastily asked at the same time, "Are you Xia Jiajia?"

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply as he repeated after them, "Are you¡­Jiajia?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei looked at Yuan Ji and said indifferently, "What if I am and what if I am not?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You are Jiajia. Only Jiajia will have my heritage sword. It is impossible that you''re not Jiajia. And if you are Jiajia then I want you to honor our one hundred year pledge."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei trembled lightly before she loosened her veil and finally revealed her face.

    Yuan Ji was trembling hard, "You are really Jiajia!"

    Even Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were gasping with shock, "Saintess Fang is indeed Jiajia."

    Xiang Li was asking excitingly in Yuan Ji''s soul sea and she was drooling, "Who is this extraordinary beautiful maiden? She is the Jiajia that you have been looking for? She is so peerless¡­"

    But Yuan Ji ignored Xiang Li because he was now looking intently at Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    Fang Zhenfei heaved a soft sigh, "I was too careless. I shouldn''t have thrown your heritage sword to Fairy Ye Chengxi."

    "Jiajia!" Yuan Ji stammered, "Do you know that I have been looking everywhere for you? You know that I am Ji Yuan right? Why didn''t you tell me that you have recognized me? Why did you leave all of a sudden? I admit that I was in the wrong for not telling you who I was when we had met again¡­."

    Fang Zhenfei averted her nces as she interrupted him, "Our destiny has ended. It doesn''t matter."

    Yuan Ji was stunned as he stammered, "Our destiny has ended? Tell me this isn''t true. We have a hundred year old pledge!"

    "Our hundred year old pledge had already ended." Saintess Fang Zhenfei reminded him. "Go now and I will pretend that I have never seen the three of you. Do you know that everyone is now hunting for the three of you?"

    Yuan Ji sighed bitterly, "Jiajia, I have a duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce in less than a month time. I may not survive the duel so I won''t me you if you were to decide not to honor our hundred year old pledge."

    Fang Zhenfei smiled indifferently, "Good. I don''t intend to honor our hundred year old pledge anyway. Good luck with your duel then¡­"

    "Jiajia!" Yuan Ji had raised his voice as he took out his divine sword. "This divine sword belongs to you and is your pledge to me¡­"

    Xiang Li was startled, "You''re going to return her the divine sword? Even though I will like to have a beautiful mistress but you should at the very least let me know first¡­"

    Actually Xiang Li did not really want a change of owner. She was only teasing Yuan Ji all the time. The reason why she had chosen to leave with Yuan Ji was because he had teased her when they had first met and she had thought that Yuan Ji was a fun person to be with. If she was really serious about leaving Yuan Ji then they would not have created a perfect divine harmony together.

    "But if you want to break off with me then you ought to return my pledge to me or else in this life, you will forever be my consort! If not, this shall be your destiny!" Yuan Ji proimed loudly.

    When Xiang Li heard him, she muttered with a soft relief. "Lame¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei gasped softly, "Lame." Then she pointed at Ling Feiyue, "For her, you are willing to break off with her but for me, why are you so insistent?"

    Ling Feiyue was flushing all of a sudden and she was averting her bashful eyes when she had heard Fang Zhenfei.

    "And how did you know about this?" Yuan Ji grinned. "So you have been keeping tabs on me, am I right? If you are not concerned about me then how do you know so much about me?"

    Fang Zhenfei was suddenly gasping and she had suddenly realized that she had a slip of a tongue.

    She was suddenly smiling, "If you can survive your duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce then I may consider you. But for now, I don''t want to see you. After all, I don''t want to be your light bulb in front of these two peerless saintesses. Please leave."<sub> </sub>

    Xue Qianxue said all of a sudden as she hummed, "Hmph! Saintess Fang Zhenfei really knows how to tease us. A hundred years ago you have yed us around your finger tips and now you are asking us to leave just like this without offering us any exnations?"

    "I have never suspected that ''Xia Jiajia'' is actually the renowned Saintess Fang Zhenfei that has no interest in the affairs of the fraternity. But it seems that I am greatly mistaken about you." Ling Feiyue said coldly.

    Fang Zhenfei was not upset. She was smiling as she folded her arms, "If you are smart enough, I will suggest for the two of you to leave him. If you apany him to the Lofty World End Peak, you will never know if the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will take a liking to the two of you and may even turn you into his cultivation melting cauldron. I''m sure you are smart enough and don''t want me to word it for you."

    Ling Feiyue stared nkly at her and softened her tone, "Jiajia, I am very sure that you did not lie to me a hundred years ago. You actually cares for Ji Yuan, am I right? Why don''t youe with us?"

    Fang Zhenfei had turned her back on them, "I am the sect master of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. There is no way that I can give up my status to be with him¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her, "Yet you have given up a hundred years of your time to guard my Orthodox Sword Sect. How do you exin it?"

    Fang Zhenfei returned a light smile before she said, "I was foolish and was not thinking straight¡­"

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply. He really could not believe that Jiajia would be telling him all these fabrications. It was obvious to him that she was lying to him and yet she did not want to tell him the truth. "I don''t believe you. Not a bit. You had made me your elder and even made me the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect. If you don''t have me in your heart then you would not meticulous nned all these for me, am I right? Why did you leave the Emperor Hall Sect without telling me? Something must have happened, am I right?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei shook her head, "Nothing has happened. Why don''t you focus on your uing duel instead?"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted coldly, "Jiajia, do you know that he is taking the rap for you to fight the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce? How can you say such things to him now?"

    "Then what do you want me to do? Go with him and then be a widow in a month time? Is that what you are suggesting for me?" Saintess Fang Zhenfei hummed softly. "Or are you trying to make use of me to fight the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    Xue Qianxue replied frankly, "You are really very smart. Together, we can save Ji Yuan¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei chuckled softly, "No thanks. I have no wish to offend the Hundred Flower Divine Pce for anyone sake. Please leave now¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had grabbed her waist, startling her. "Jiajia. After I have defeated the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, I wille to help you with your difficulties. This is my promise to you."

    Fang Zhenfei gasped, "Let me go. Are you dense or not? We have no future together¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her as he said firmly, "Then proves it. Return my heritage sword to me if that is really what you really wish for."

    "You''re reallyme. I have already given your sword to Fairy Ye Chengxi. How do you expect me to return your sword to you?" Fang Zhenfei answered bitterly.

    Yuan Ji stared mncholy at her, "Then we''re not breaking up."

    Fang Zhenfei was startled by the firm and mncholy look that were in his gaze.

    She did not struggle anymore or pulled his hands off her waist¡­

    After some time she said with trembling lips, "Why are you so silly?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I have been silly ever since the day that I had met you."

    Fang Zhenfei gasped softly as she averted her eyes away. After a while, she muttered. "I am on something dangerous and I don''t want to involve you. Therefore I can''t tell you what it is. But if you don''t die in a month time, I promise you that I will follow you to the ends of the earth."

    Yuan Ji was delighted as he embraced her tightly, "Really?! This is good!"

    Even Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were secretly smiling when they saw the scene.

    "Is that a promise?!" Yuan Ji was overjoyed as he asked with a hoarse voice.

    "It is a promise." Fang Zhenfei said with a soft sigh. "Why did I have to know you in the first ce?"

    "I will surely defeat the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower." Yuan Ji said firmly as he looked at her. "Even though I don''t know your difficulties but please wait for me, Jiajia. I believe you and I know your heart now."

    Fang Zhenfei said gently, "You don''t have to defeat the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower. You only have to survive. This is important for you to remember this."

    Yuan Ji nodded, "I will remember this."

    After Yuan Ji had finished, he had taken flight with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Fang Zhenfei had a bittersweet look as she muttered softly, "Ji Yuan, I guess that I have no other choice but to be struck with you in the future¡­"

    Two maidens had quietly walked to the deck and asked, "Mistress, why didn''t you tell him that you are fighting the Evil Cultivation Pce? Maybe he is able to help you?"

    Fang Zhenfei shook her head, "He won''t be able to help. That Old Demon Freak of the Evil Cultivation Pce is now probably the strongest cultivator in existence now. Now that we have folded his ns of obtaining the Sacred Maiden Profound Art, he is probably hopping mad somewhere and his next target will be us."

    "I don''t understand. He is not a maiden or a virgin. Why did he need the Sacred Maiden Profound Art for?" One of the two maidens asked quietly.

    "He is trying to reach the ultimate level of his evil cultivation profound art. If I am not wrong then the Sacred Maiden Profound Art happens to contain a breakthrough that he needed. Now that we have folded his ns of obtaining the chastity of Xue Qianxue, he will surely go on the double for the Sacred Maiden Profound Art." Fang Zhenfei exined.

    The evil cultivation divine arts were all heretic arts but sometimes in order to delve into the highest mysteries of their evil divine arts, an opposite pure cultivation profound art was required. The Sacred Maiden Profound Art was the exact opposite.

    Then she was smiling, "I have never expected that Zhao Songjin will actually betray the Evil Cultivation Pce. I wish that I can see the looks that are on Little Princess and Old Demon Freak. Maybe the rumors that Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin are mother and daughter are true after all."

 Chapter 84 Ambush (1)

    Shortly after taking off from Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s flying profound ship, Ling Feiyue asked with a delightful smile. "So where are you nning to go next?"

    Yuan Ji was in high spirits as he rubbed his chin, "Hmm, naturally it is to a ce that is near to the Lofty World End Peak. We will find a quiet cave to cultivate. I need to fully prepare for my duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    "Ji Yuan¡­" Xue Qianxue heaved a soft sigh. "Do you think that the three of us will be able to defeat him?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "I will muster all my golden celestials to have a final showdown with him!"

    Yuan Ji frowned, "Have the two of you forgotten what I have said? It is my personal duel. If I die, so be it. None of you shall interfere. Moreover, my odd of winning is 50%."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were pinching him all of a sudden as they chuckled together, "We don''t believe."

    "I''m a great saintess with the True Sacred Saint Profound Art and yet I don''t believe that I even have a 10% chance. Have you forgotten that he has a celestial grade divine sword?" Ling Feiyue inhaled with a deep sigh.

    "Although he may have a celestial grade divine sword but I doubt that he can even divine harmonize with it. As for me, I have already achieved a perfect harmony with my heaven grade divine sword." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    Xue Qianxue said quietly, "But you are only an initial saint while he is said to be a peaked seventh realm great saint. The difference between the two of you are too great."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Profound strength isn''t everything. As long as he cannot kill me outright, my undying fighting spirit will carry me through my fight."

    "This sounds a little forced." Ling Feiyue said weakly. "Ji Yuan, Qianxue. I can impart to you my True Sacred Saint Profound Art to you."

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Really sister? Are you sure?"

    Ling Feiyueughed softly, "We are really close sisters. Why not?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly looking at Ling Feiyue curiously, "How did you manage to cultivate to the golden core in such a short time?"

    "Actually I do not know as well. I have managed to cultivate to the golden natal core within a month. I find it a little puzzling too. I have cultivated the Pure Core within a week and the Gold Core after three weeks. The Spirit Core is a little difficult. But if I have more time, I should have no problem forming the Spirit Core."

    Yuan Ji really did not believe that it would be so easy.

    Xiang Li had suddenly appeared in his soul and she was giggling, "Stop pondering so hard. Let me tell you why. It is because I have cleansed her soul sea of all impurities as the final trial reward. Therefore her cultivation speed is at least a hundred times faster."

    When Yuan Ji heard her, he was shocked. "A hundred times faster? How is it possible?!"

    Xiang Liughed, "That is also your final trial reward too. Therefore you only need slightly a month to form the Gold Core too if you were to cultivate the True Sacred Saint Profound Art."

    Yuan Ji was startled. "I thought that you say that our final trial reward is the revtion of my three past reincarnations with Ling Feiyue?"

    Xiang Li was giggling, "You already know that I had lied about that part. What? You are hoping that it is the truth? If it is not for my lie, why do you think Maiden Feiyue is willing to follow you with all her heart? You broke her heart but she has never forgotten about you. Did you know that day when I told her about your three past lifetimes together, her heart was weeping inside and I could even hear it so loud and clear?"

    She added with a jovial chuckle. "When you have met her again, why do you think she had said to you that she is willing to follow you to the grave? If she is really upset with you, she won''t say that, am I right?"

    "Xiang Li, you know what. I actually feel like kissing your foot. Haha." Yuan Jiughed jovially.

    "You can kowtow at the same time. I don''t mind." Xiang Li giggled.

    Yuan Ji managed a slight frown, "We have side tracked. Since our rewards are so good then why didn''t you tell us? Why did you make up a story then?"

    Xiang Li was suddenly quiet before she sighed solemnly, "I was actually touched by the two of you when you have created a newbined sword art during the final trial. Therefore I had decided to give the two of you a little push with your cultivation. However what I did is against the forbiddenws of the trials as that reward is almost impossible to achieve. Someone actually achieved that reward the other day so I switch both your rewards."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I wonder who that unlucky cultivator is?"

    Xiang Li pondered for a moment before she answered, "A cultivator by the name of Lu Qingyun."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "I know him¡­"

    "Because of what I did, I can no longer return back to the trials." Xiang Li said quietly.

    Yuan Ji smiled, "Xiang Li, thank you! I will take you around to see many, many interesting things. You won''t be alone. This is my promise to you!"

    Xiang Li gasped softly as she stared nkly, "Really?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "You are the best Xiang Li. Of course I am serious."

    Xiang Li covered her face shyly and she was almost drooling, "I am already imagining all the naked maidens that I will be seeing¡­"

    "Xiang Li! I mean I will take you around to see the fraternity atrge. Not naked maidens!" Yuan Ji returned an exasperated look.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji''s divine sense had suddenly alerted him to tens of flying mounts that were lying in ambush around the mountains.

    Even Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were rmed at the same time too.

    All of a sudden a powerful sword energy had shed from the clouds and had killed their flying mount, forcing Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue to jump off to the mountains below.

    Luckily for them they had not fly too high or else they would have plummet to the bottomless deste mists below the mountains.

    Yuan Ji had immediately unsheathed his divine sword while Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue also did the same.

    Immediately they found themselves surrounded by more than thirty golden celestials that had jumped off their flying mounts as they greeted them with their swords!

    Yuan Ji could recognize several of them; they were Third Young Master Jian Menghao, Saintess Jian Yuluo, Great Saint Jian Kang the sect master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and several of the golden celestials that he had met in the trials with Jian Menghao.

    That was not all.

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong the sect master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion, Saint Jin Yilong and his daughter Celestial Jin Yuyun were also among the recognized faces!

    "Ling Feiyue! You are not going anywhere today!" The cultivators that were surrounding them were shouting.<sub> </sub>

    "Sacred Maiden Xue, we are here to rescue you! Fear not!"

    "Who is this dashing man that is with them?"

    "Sacred Maiden Xue, why are you drawing your sword against us? We''re on your side!"

    Xue Qianxue however replied coldly, "I am afraid that you are not here to rescue me but to obtain Feiyue''s golden natal core, am I right?"

    Sect Master Jin Tianzong was smiling, "Sacred Maiden Xue must have misunderstood our intentions. We are here to destroy this demoness here and to avenge the humiliations of the Orthodox Fraternity!"

    Sect Master Jian Kangughed heartily, "That is right."

    Then he grew solemn, "Surely Sacred Maiden Xue isn''t thinking of opposing us?"

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "That is right!"

    When everyone had heard Xue Qianxue, they were startled by her reply.

    At the same time Jian Menghao was smiling at Ling Feiyue, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue, I believe that this is the third time that we have met already. So how are you? I am really so blind as not to recognize you when we are in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials."

    Ling Feiyue did not reply him. Instead she seemed to havepletely ignored him. It was because this Jian Menghao was only a fifth realm golden celestial and he was not a real threat to her whenpared to the other seventh realm experts that were here.

    Jian Menghao said to the rest with a cold smirk. "As for this man, he is Li Yuan! Definitely a good-for-nothing cultivator. Since he is in theirpany, we should remove him as well!"

    After he was forced tomit suicide in the Lotus Sword Mansion, he had managed to find out the name of the man that had caused his party to suffer such a humiliating defeat.

    "Aunt. You must seek redress for your nephew today!" He stressed to Jian Yuluo.

    Saintess Jian Yuluo was suddenly sighing softly, "Nephew, it is a good thing that you didn''t die when confronting this man that day. Do you know who he is?"

    Jian Menghao replied with great haughtiness, "Who cares? He is but an insignificant ant in front of us!"

    Jian Yuluo hummed coldly, "Then you are really blind! He is Sword Saint Ji Yuan!"

    Jian Menghao and many of the cultivators took small step backward when they had heard her.

    "He is Sword Saint Ji Yuan?!"

    Many of them had turned ashen. It was because Sword Saint Ji Yuan was the master of the Sword Saintess Ye Chengxi and he had the reputation as the fastest sword in the celestial fraternity.

    "No wonder we are all killed by him¡­" Gongsun Zan gasped out. He was a sixth realm golden celestial and was of the five golden celestials that was ''killed'' by Ji Yuan in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials.

    Jian Menghao quicklyposed himself and said, "Although this Ji Yuan is a saint but my aunt is also a seventh realm sword saintess. Moreover what can he do against so many of us? We have ten saints in our group!"

    Saintess Jian Yuluo said coldly to him, "You have better stay clear of our battles. These three are strong opponents."

    Yuan Ji sighed softly as he looked at her, "Yuxian or should I say Saintess Yuluo, how are you?"

    Saintess Jian Yuluo replied gently, "I''m fine. How have you been all these years?"

    Jian Menghao was startled that his aunt had suddenly be so gentle. A while ago, she was still rebuking him coldly.

    Even Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were startled that Yuan Ji and Jian Yuluo were acquaintances.

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh, "I am good."

    Saintess Jian Yuluo nodded gently, "It seems that you are now a seventh realm expert now. Good for you."

    Yuan Ji nodded lightly.

    "Your opponent today will be me." Saintess Jian Yuluo said quietly.

    As she said that, she was secretly sighing, "Ji Yuan, although I have you to thank for my status as Sword Saintess but I have already used my body to repay you. Therefore we no longer owe each other anything. Now that you have thrown your lot with the unorthodox fraternity, please do not me me for being ruthless today!"

    Yuan Ji did not have any expression nor did he bother to reply to Saintess Jian Yuluo. As a matter of fact, he was unusually calm as he monitored all his opponents at the same time.

    Everyone was secretly startled. Two sword saints would soon be dueling against each other!

    At the same time the two sect masters of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and the Mystic Profound Pavilion, Great Saint Jian Kang and Great Jin Tianzong were now looking coldly at Ling Feiyue.

    As for Xue Qianxue, Saint Jin Yilong was smiling as he moved to block her. Following him were two saints from the Mystic Profound Pavilion and two saints from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor!

    Altogether there were still more than twenty golden celestials that were from the fifth to the sixth realm that were shifting their battle positions around Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue as they waited for an opportunity to attack them.

    Yuan Ji had a grim expression as the strong cultivators from the two major orthodox ns had them cornered.

    "Qianxue, Feiyue. Today we will fight our way through together." Yuan Ji said with determination as the double halo of his divine sword shed forth from his sword.

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "It is me that they want¡­"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted her with a soft chuckle, "Sister, if you want to ask us to abandon you then you must be mistaken. They are not getting to you because I will be in their way!"

    Yuan Ji turned to look at Ling Feiyue with a grin, "Ipletely agree with Qianxue on this."

    Ling Feiyue lowered her eyes with a light smile, "Everyone¡­thank you!"

 Chapter 85 Ambush (2)

    The instant that Yuan Ji had raised his sword against Saintess Jian Yuluo, she hadpletely blocked his attack. So swift was her attack and the strength of her profound strength that she had sent him to scurry backward.

    "Middle tier Seventh Realm Saintess!" Yuan Ji gasped softly.

    He was smiling, "Not bad."

    When he had said not bad, he had sent a sixth realm golden celestial that was trying to sneak on his back to fly backward with a quick sh of his sword.

    Saintess Jian Yuluo smiled as she greeted back with her returning sword strokes, "I have also advanced since we havest met."

    As she said at the same time, she had also shed forward, disappearing before vanishing in front of Yuan Ji with several powerful sword strokes that were imbued with her profound power.

    Yuan Ji quickly parried off her attacks and exploded his deadly sword energies around him, causing several of the golden celestials that were on his tail to scurry away.

    "Ji Yuan, you seem to be faster than ever before. You can even block off my Vanishing Sword Art." Jian Yuluo smiled coldly at him.

    "I wonder how you may fare against my Profound Heaven Sword?" Jian Yuluo said aloud as she disyed a wave of powerful profound wave in a circr motion.

    "Profound Heaven Sword 8th Rank!"

    Yuan Ji immediately mustered all his profound strength into his sword as profound power to block her iing sword art. He had barely blocked it when Jian Menghao and several golden celestials had joined behind Jian Yuluo as they disyed the profound power of their Profound Heaven Sword to empower Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    This caused Ji Yuan to cough out a bout of blood as he was overwhelmed by the raw profound power of his attackers.

    Three blinks of an eyeter, he was sent flying backward and he had crashed into a huge boulder behind him!

    Ling Feiyue was not having an easier time too.

    It was because Great Saint Jian Kang had disyed the 8th rank of the Profound Heaven Sword on Ling Feiyue and Great Saint Jin Tianzong had also disyed an epitome sword art the Sweeping Gale Force that caused all the surrounding pebbles to hit her with multiple tremendous impacts!

    Two Great Saints of the two most powerful patriarch ns and numerous golden celestials were now fighting against a lone Great Saintess. Even if Ling Feiyue had several divine arts under her sleeves but she was now hard pressed and she was defending more than she could attack.

    As for Xue Qianxue, she was surrounded by five saints and many others. Although her Ninth Rank Sacred Maiden Profound Art was extremely formidable and she could pressure her opponents but her opponents were all on the defensive to lure her into expending her profound strength.

    With such cunning opponents, Xue Qianxue was really helpless and she could only finish off a few weaker golden celestials that got too careless or impatient.

    Yuan Ji knew that if they continued in this way, they would soon be finished.

    The entire mountain was rocked by the profound powers and powerful strokes of the golden celestials as they battled furiously against one another.

    Jian Yuluo whispered to him as she engaged him in melee, "Ji Yuan, is this your best performance? I don''t want you to show me any mercy or else your two beautiful friends will soon be dead!"

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly as he whispered back, "Yuluo, where is your 9th rank of the Profound Heaven Sword? I am still waiting for you to use it on me. Surely with your talents, you must have already mastered it."

    As he said that, he had imploded his sword bursts all around him, scattering the other golden celestials that were getting too close to him.

    All of a sudden there were loud shrieks and screams above them as dozens of cultivators in their flying mounts were massacred by dozens ofrge flying beasts that had crept from the deste mists below.

    Everyone was startled, including Yuan Ji as they saw that these flying beasts were actually giant seventh rank profound draconic beasts.

    These draconic beasts had a name and were called the Titan Draconic Beasts. These Titan Draconic Beasts were extremely ferocious and were rarely seen in a group but today they were actually seeing several dozens of them!

    Legends had it that these Titan Draconic Beasts were the offspring of the God Beast Flood Dragon that dwelled in the Immortal Realm.

    But regardless if the legends were true, these Titan Draconic Beasts were not easy to handle even for a seventh realm golden saint.<sub> </sub>

    In just a few blinks of an eye, all the flying mounts of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and the Mystic Profound Pavilion were all massacred!

    Saintess Jian Yuluo gasped as she turned ashen, "Seventh rank profound beasts! Menghao, run! They are equivalent to a seventh realm saint level cultivator¡­"

    Jian Menghao had turnedpletely ashen but he mustered whatever little courage that he could muster to grab Jin Yuyun, "Maiden Yuyun, we must flee now!"

    Jin Yuyun was so panicky at the sight of these Titanic Draconic Beasts that she had dropped her sword. It was only when she was prompted by Jian Menghao that she had regained herposure.

    "Where to?"

    "Follow me!" Jian Menghao stammered out, trying to be a real hero but whatever brave front that he tried to muster was shaky with fear.

    Saintess Jian Yuluo shouted to the two of them, "Follow me!"

    Everyone had stopped fighting and was panicky running to the interiors of the mountains!

    "Everyone run!"

    "Find a cave!"

    "Quick!"

    "What are you all waiting for?!"

    "There is no time to lose!"

    Although there were many seventh realm cultivators here and they could easily dispatch a Titanic Draconic Beast but there were actually more than fifty of these powerful deste beasts around. Therefore it was impossible to fight them all at the same time.

    As Yuan Ji grabbed Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue to run along with him, he could not resist a mocking shout to his attackers, "I call this bad karma. There are so many of you after me and now there are so many of these deste beasts after you!"

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue quickly disyed their extraordinary lightless profound art as they sped hastily into the interiors of the mountains during the confusion.

    After passing through several ridges as they shed across with their full speed, they had finally spotted a cave.

    "Hurry, let''s enter this cave for cover." Yuan Ji said.

    He could hear screams that were behind him.

    As Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue shed into the cave, all of a sudden they saw that Yuan Ji was not entering the cave with them.

    Yuan Ji shouted to them before he disappeared in the horizon, "I will be back shortly. Don''t worry about me¡­I will be safe enough¡­"

    Xue Qianxue gasped after him, "Ji Yuan, where are you going?"

    Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh, "If I am not wrong, he is trying to save Saintess Jian Yuluo."

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Why should he try to save someone who wants his life?"

    "Isn''t it obvious? She must be his ex-girlfriend." Ling Feiyue replied quietly. "Can''t you see the way that he is looking at her? Even his strokes are a lot slower when he is handling her. I''m very sure that he had ridden her in the past."

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

 Chapter 86 Youâ€™re Always In My Heart

    The mountains were vast and there were heavy fighting in the mountains.

    He spotted a few golden celestials that were fleeing or fighting with the Titan Draconic Beasts but he did not spotted Saintess Jian Yuluo among them.

    Finally after searching for a while more, he had found her in a small mountain trail as she battled a Titan Draconic Beast. Behind her were Jian Menghao and Jin Yuyun who were badly injured and they could only lean against the cliffs.

    Not far away from them, was a corpse of a Titan Draconic Beast that was lying nearby. Needless to say, this Titan Draconic Beast was in by Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    But it appeared that Saintess Jian Yuluo only had the strength to kill only one of the Titan Draconic Beast but not the other. It was because she had horrifying injuries all over her.

    Yuan Ji was rmed when he saw the state that she was in.

    Without any second thoughts, he had dashed in their midst!

    "Ji Yuan?" Saintess Jian Yuluo had a faint smile when she saw him before she copsed on the ground.

    Ji Yuan raised his divine sword as he imploded three sword energies waves onto the ground, causing six burst of sword energies to burst forth from the ground to strike at the Titan Draconic Beast.

    Now the Titan Draconic Beast was four times bigger than Yuan Ji and a lot formidable than it was appeared to be.

    Yuan Ji''s sword energies could only cause it a little difort and did not even hurt it.

    However he was not surprise because he knew that the profound animus of this monster was extremely strong or else it would not be a profound seventh rank deste beast that could rival a seventh realm saint.

    Because Yuan Ji had no intention to retreat, he began to imbue all his profound strength into his sword as profound power before shing furiously at the Titan Draconic Beast.

    The Titan Draconic Beast was not standing there to let him hit and retaliate with its mighty profound strength.

    Soon, the twobatants were shing furiously against each other relentlessly.

    All in all, Yuan Ji had sent more than three hundred sword strokes into the body of the Titan Draconic Beast while he had received ten heavy injuries that nearly split his golden body apart.

    But eventually he had triumphed as his final sword stroke managed to send the Titan Draconic Beast down the deste mist.

    Coughing a bout of golden blood, Yuan Ji struggled to the side of Saintess Jian Yuluo, "Yuxian¡­Yuluo¡­are you alright?"

    Saintess Jian Yuluo weakly opened her eyes and lit a feeble smile, "Ji Yuan, you have won?"

    "Yes, I have won. I will take you away." Yuan Ji replied with a heart aching expression. Her injuries were really bad that he could feel her life seeping away.

    "I know¡­that I am dying¡­my cultivation core is already¡­torn apart after my battle with the first Titan Draconic Beast¡­and I have forcefully used my vital strength to fight¡­the second¡­"

    "You will be alright. Not a word more please." Yuan Ji said gently to her.

    "No, I must. I am¡­really d to see you¡­again¡­after so many years¡­." Jian Yuluo forced a weak smile. "I am sorry¡­for leaving without a word¡­sorry¡­I d that you¡­still remember me as Yuxian. I wish that¡­I can be your Yuxian forever¡­"

    "I''ve never me you, Yuxian." Yuan Ji was trembling as he held her tightly. "At my lowest point, you are there for me¡­"

    Jian Yuluo coughed weakly, "But¡­I had left you¡­all of a sudden¡­and had¡­never look for you¡­all these years¡­"

    Yuan Ji punched the ground with his fists as he gritted his teeth, "I know that you have your own difficulties. I don''t me you. Why did you choose to fight these two Titan Draconic Beasts? With your cultivation realm level, fleeing from them is all too easy for you. Why did you fight¡­"

    All of a sudden he turned to give a bloodshot stare at Jian Menghao and Jin Yuyun. "Yuxian must have stayed behind because of the two of you, am I right!"

    Jian Menghao and Jin Yuyun who were leaning against the cliff saw the angry look that was on Yuan Ji and they were extremely afraid of him.

    Saintess Jian Yuluo had indeed stayed behind for their sake. Because they were injured by the Titan Draconic Beast, she had chosen to fight so as to buy them the time to make their escape. But their injuries were too severe and they could barely run fast enough.

    "For these two worthless people, is it worth sacrificing your seventh realm attainment for them?!" Yuan Ji was bemoaning with great sadness. "Not everyone can be a seventh realm golden saint. Even if he is your nephew, it is still too early to say that he can be one in the future. Maybe this good-for-nothing nephew of yours may even fail in his breakthrough at the sixth realm!"

    All of a sudden Saintess Jian Yuluo coughed weakly as she gripped Yuan Ji''s wrist with herst strength, "Menghao is too yful¡­but I am sure that if he is willing to put in¡­more efforts¡­he can be a great saint one day¡­"

    Jian Menghao was tearful as he fell upon his knees, "Aunt¡­Celestial Teacher¡­if you were to survive today, I swear to the heavens that I won''t be yful again. I will be a good man. I won''t disappoint your teachings¡­"

    "Menghaoe over here¡­please¡­" Saintess Jian Yuluo muttered weakly.

    Jian Menghao quickly dashed over to her side and cried, "Aunt, please don''t die¡­"

    When Yuan Ji saw him, he rebuked harshly. "Trash! Pathetic! You have caused the death of your Celestial Teacher and aunt. What a great nephew you are! Your father must be trash too to give life to your pathetic existence!"

    Jian Yuluo put the hands of Yuan Ji and Jian Menghao together. There were tears in her eyes as she muttered weakly, "Menghao¡­I am not your aunt...but your birth mother and¡­this man here is¡­your father¡­"

    When Yuan Ji and Jian Menghao heard her, they were so shocked that they were trembling with disbelief.<sub> </sub>

    "This trash is my¡­son?!" Yuan Ji was stunned.

    Jian Yuluo was smiling as she looked dreamily at Jian Menghao, "Don''t me him. He is my son¡­and as his mother¡­I ought to protect him¡­I am the one that has pampered him¡­over the years."

    Then she turned to look weakly at Yuan Ji as she wept, "My father is so upset with me¡­when he had learnt that I was with child¡­that he imprisoned me for years¡­I can''t even acknowledge my son as my own¡­I can''t even look for you¡­Ji Yuan, please take care of him for me¡­and please forgive me¡­"

    Jian Yuluo had finally breathed herst but her countenance was extremely peaceful.

    Yuan Ji was trembling hard as he held onto her, "Yuxian! Yuluo! You will always be Yuxian in my heart¡­"

    Xiang Li had suddenly appeared in his soul sea and said quietly, "She actually has many things to say to you. Let me show you herst memories¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, I am sorry that I have to leave now. My father has summoned me¡­"

    "Sorry, I can''t tell you who I am now but I will be back for you soon¡­"

    "Thank you for your guidance¡­"

    "I am with child?!"

    "Father, is it a disgraceful thing to like amoner?"

    "Father, I know that I have disgraced your honor and the Profound Heaven Sword Manor¡­"

    "Father, I promise you that I will never see Ji Yuan again¡­just let me be with my child¡­"

    "I can only see my son if I pretend to be his aunt¡­"

    "Father, I will be Jian Menghao''s Celestial Teacher¡­please grant my wish¡­"

    "So what if I have be a Sword Saintess? I can never see him again¡­"

    "He is my son but I can never acknowledge him because he is born out of wedlock and he can only be my nephew¡­"

    "Menghao, do you know that your father is also a Sword Saint? If you know who he is, you will be so proud of him¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, I heard that you are now a sixth realm golden supremacy¡­how I wish that I can be there to offer my congrats to you¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, I wonder if you have anyone in your heart now?"

    "Ji Yuan is attempting his seventh realm breakthrough? Isn''t it a little too early for him? I hope that he will be alright¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, where are you? Our son is now a fifth realm golden celestial now. If you know, I''m sure that you will be so proud of him¡­"

    "Aiya, I have spoiled him so much¡­he is getting more and more haughty¡­"

    "If only Ji Yuan is here to discipline him¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, it is really you...we have finally met again. Let me be your opponent so that you won''t identally get killed..."

    Three hundred years ago after Yuan Ji was dumped by his old sweetheart, he was captured by Little Princess to be made into her dual cultivation ve. But luckily for him, he had managed to escape after one month of imprisonment when she was not looking and he was found by Saintess ''Yuxian''.

    He had a short three months romance with Saintess Yuxian at which she had patiently nursed him back to health.

    But one day she had suddenly disappeared and for the next one hundred years, he had been searching for her news before he had finally given up on finding her.

    When he had met her again, he had learnt that she was actually Saintess Jian Yuluo, the lofty daughter of Great Saint Jian Kang who was also the sect master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    He had thought that she had left him after obtaining the guidance to be a Sword Saintess but he was very wrong. She was actually safeguarding their only child¡­

    Xiang Li could feel Yuan Ji''s grieving heart and she knew that he was only suppressing his tears.

    Slowly, Yuan Ji had lifted the lifeless Jian Yuluo in his arms before saying to Jian Menghao with a trembling voice, "This ce is not safe. Come with me. You should cherish your life. It is because Yuxian had used her life in exchange for yours."

    Then he looked at Jin Yuyun who was staring nkly against the cliff, "Youngss. If you are smart, not a word to anyone what you have heard today. Don''t me me if I heard any rumors that are from you." After warning her, he added with a heavy sigh. "Follow me."

    Jin Yuyun nodded with a frighten look as she quickly cuddled next to Jian Menghao, afraid that Yuan Ji would change his mind in the next instant and decided to kill her or abandoning her here.

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily as he took ast look at Jin Yuyun before he continued on his way; this Jin Yuyun really resembled his ex-sweetheart too much.

 Chapter 87 Two New Elder Tokens

    With a heavy heart, Yuan Ji had finallyid down the tomb marker and on it was the inscription, ''My Beloved Consort Jian Yuxian''.

    "Yuxian is the name that you have used when we had first met. I shall use this name tomemorate you." Yuan Ji muttered.

    Behind him were Jian Menghao, Jin Yuyun, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    There was also a big griffon that was nearby. This flying mount had actually belonged to Jian Menghao and it had found them when Yuan Ji and Jian Menghao were digging the side of the scenic mountain ledge to make a grave.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were startled when they had first learnt that Jian Menghao was actually Yuan Ji''s son. At first they had thought that Yuan Ji was joking but they quickly dismissed their initial surmise. It was because Yuan Ji was carrying the lifeless body of Saintess Jian Yuluo and his expression was extremely grave.

    Jian Menghao was now kneeling in front of the tomb as he wept bitterly, "Mother consort, your unfilial son had been with you day in and day out but yet I had never known that you are my mother consort."

    It was no wonder that sometimes he had felt that his aunt was more like his mother to him than his Celestial Teacher.

    He knew that his aunt often defended him when he was in the wrong. He had be pampered and arrogant because it seemed that no one in the Profound Heaven Sword Manor seemed to like him and he had no real friends even among his fellow patriarch prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Now he had finally known why.

    He gave a deep bow with his forehead touching the ground before weeping out loud, "From today onward, Jian Menghao is no more. I shall be known as Ji Hao."

    Jin Yuyun was startled, "Are you really going to give up your status as the Third Young Master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor?"

    Ji Hao replied firmly, "That''s right."

    Jin Yuyun gasped with shock, "Where are you going then?"

    Ji Haoughed bitterly, "The fraternity is vast. Surely I can find a home in any ce."

    Jin Yuyun hummed coldly, "Then I shall go with you as well!"

    Not only was Ji Hao stunned when he had heard her but so were Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Ji Hao frowned bitterly, "I shall take you back to your sect first. Where I am going is not a ce for a pampered young mistress like you."

    Jin Yuyun hummed coldly, "Yes, I am a pampered young mistress but I am also willing to give up everything to follow you. Saintess Yuluo and you had saved my life earlier and did not abandon me. Because of me, Saintess Yuluo had even lost her life. Where were my father and grandfather earlier when I was in danger? They were the first to flee from the scene!"

    She lowered her eyes shyly, "I have no one to turn to anymore except for you. Do you have the heart to turn me away?"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her, "Youngss, go back to your sect. Or your mother consort will feel anxious for you."

    Jin Yuyunughed bitterly, "My mother consort? She had already passed away from a broken heart a long time."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Your mother consort is no longer around?"

    Jin Yuyun nodded as she returned a soft sigh, "Before my mother consort passed away, she had told me that if I ever met a worthy man that loves me, I should stick with him even if he is poor man lest I will live in regrets like her. I have decided that Menghao¡­Ji Hao is going to be the man that I will like to be with in the future!"

    Yuan Ji was startled that Jin Yuyun''s mother consort was no longer around and he had a light tremble. Although Jin Yuyun resembled her mother but their personalities werepletely different. Jin Yuyun was outspoken, frank and incapable of using flowery words.

    Jin Yuyun she smiled at Ji Hao as she continued, "If you can abandon your influential background so can I. Together we can wander the fraternity¡­"

    Ji Hao interrupted her with a bitterugh, "Forget it. You will really lose everything and may never be a sixth realm golden supremacy. Without the cultivation resources and the spiritual mountains of your sect, your cultivation will be a slow snail. Go away, I don''t want to see you¡­"

    "You only say that because you truly care for me, am I right?" Jin Yuyun interrupted him. "Or else why should you help me when I was in danger?"

    Ji Haoughed, "Do not misunderstood. That is only because I am a yboy¡­"

    Yuan Ji suddenly interrupted them as he threw two tokens to them, "Shut up the two of you. If you want to quarrel, confine your quarrels within your bed chamber."

    When Jin Yuyun heard Yuan Ji, she was suddenly flustered while Ji Hao also had an awkward look.

    "These two tokens are the Elder Tokens of my Emperor Hall Sect. Since the two of you are fifth realm golden celestials, you can go there to be my elders and instruct the prot¨¦g¨¦s there."

    Ji Hao was startled, "Father, I appreciate this but¡­"

    "No but." Yuan Ji interrupted. "You shall go there immediately. I don''t want to see you going anywhere where you shouldn''t be. Stay there until I am back."

    "But I don''t know where the Emperor Hall Sect is." Ji Hao said weakly as he stole a nce at Jin Yuyun.<sub> </sub>

    Jin Yuyun sighed softly, "I have no idea as well. It must be a third tier celestial n."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "It is at the Five Heavens Peak." Yuan Ji frowned lightly as he replied them. "Hop on your flying mount and hurry there."

    Ji Hao said quietly, "I shall listen to father''s instruction."

    As Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun hopped on the flying mount, they were heard arguing. "We should head east and not north¡­"

    "No, it is definitely east¡­"

    "The Five Heavens Peaks is north of here¡­"

    Yuan Ji shook his fists with fury as he shouted at them, "It is in the west!"

    "Did you hear your father? It is actually west¡­"

    "Luckily we didn''t go east. That is the opposite direction¡­"

    "How dare you poke fun at me?"

    Yuan Ji was shaking his head with a stupefied look, "How did the two of them survive until today?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Your new daughter-inw is cute."

    Xue Qianxue said with a chuckle, "I guess my child now has a big brother." Then she hesitated briefly before saying, "Ji Yuan, are you sure that the Five Heavens Peaks is west of here? I thought that it is supposed to be in the south?"

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly, "Same here. I thought that it is in the south?"

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes before he slowly replied with a loud gasp, "Oh no! I thought that we are still at the Holy Maiden Peaks and forget that we are tailing Jiajia''s flying profound ship¡­"

    He panicky turned his attention to the skies but Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun had already vanished into the clouds.

    He could only mutter anxiously, "I hope they don''t lose their way."

    Ling Feiyue said weakly, "So Ji Yuan, where should we go now? We have lost our flying mount."

    Yuan Ji pondered for a while before he said, "Do you think that this mountain peak is a little too mysterious? I mean, this ce has a rich spiritual aura but yet there are actually so many high level deste beasts here. It is as though these deste beasts are guarding something. Maybe we should explore this ce for a little while."

    Usually when a ce has a rich spiritual aura in the vicinity, the deste aura in the vicinity will be weak and cannot support the presence of the powerful deste beasts.

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "I agree that this ce is a little mysterious too. Do you remember the cave that we have found? I can feel that there is something in there."

    Xue Qianxue said, "That cave is actually arge cavern with many passages. I took a quick look earlier.  The cave is indeed unusual and I can sense that it had been inhabited before."

    "Since we have the time, why don''t we take a quick look?" Yuan Ji suggested. "Even if we don''t find anything unusual, we can still use the cave as a ce for us to cultivate until my duel is due."

    The two maidens were in full agreement with him as they began to follow him back to the cave.

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily as he took onest look at the tombstone, "Yuxian, good bye¡­I will take care of our good-for-nothing son¡­"

    Then he turned to say to Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue with a soft sigh, "The two of you don''t mind taking care of my good-for-nothing son if I don''t make it back alive from my duel, do you?"

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, we actually do mind a lot. If you die then we will find a seclude mountain to spend the rest of our lives as autonomous celestials. So you have better not die."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Haha, I am only suggesting¡­"

 Chapter 88 The Mysterious Cavern

    Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were now back in the cave earlier.

    The cave was exactly like what Xue Qianxue had said; it was really a huge cavern with many passages.  After a while they had spotted several man-made markings along the walls.

    "This cave is bigger than what I have thought. It seemed that there were inhabitants in this cave a long time ago." Yuan Ji said after he rubbed his fingers at the markings.

    "These markings are extremely ancient." He concluded after using his divine sense to probe.

    Ling Feiyue nodded as her beautiful eyes were looking curiously around the passage, "That is what I have thought so too."

    After exploring for three hours, they soon came to a cavern that was quite chilly and there was a huge ck door with a beautiful flower of life pattern at the end of this cavern. Next to it was a ck stele with some ancient texts that were inscribed on it.

    Now this ck stele was unlike the ck steles that were inside the trials and touching it did not yield any information.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were soon deciphering the texts on the ck stele eagerly and they were even having a friendlypetition to decipher it together. "This is the Null Abyss Door of the Deste Darkness¡­woes befall the ones that enter through it and a most terrifying curse shall befall onto the ones that break the seal¡­a divine cmity await those that dare to enter¡­"

    "Qianxue, Feiyue. We can enter this door now."  Yuan Ji had shed the profound seal on the huge ck door with his divine sword and he was feeling quite proud of himself when the sealed ck door was forced open by him.

    "With my seventh realm profound strength and the help of my heaven-step divine sword, even an ancient profound sealed door is not a match for me. Haha."

    "Ji Yuan, what have you done?!" Xue Qianxue was horrified. While they were deciphering the messages on the ck stele, Yuan Ji had actually hacked his way into the ck door.

    Even Ling Feiyue was stunned that Yuan Ji had been so reckless.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Come on, let''s go in. I have already opened the way. The ck stele probably got nothing useful to say except for some empty threats and curses. We shouldn''t waste our time to decipher it. Usually there is nothing useful in it."

    Xue Qianxue muttered to Ling Feiyue as Yuan Ji walked beyond the huge ck door, "I really don''t know if Ji Yuan is a genius or¡­foolish¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was looking flustered as she defended Yuan Ji, "He¡­s¡­trust him. When I was in the trials with him, I had thought that he was foolish but in the end, I was the one that was looking the most foolish."

    Although she had said that, she did not believe in what she was saying in her heart.

    Even Xue Qianxue did not quite believe too but she muttered, "Well, at least he is genius enough to know what the ck stele is saying without even checking it."

    "Agree. He looks like he is an experienced tomb raider. Do you think that he will really do something like this?" Ling Feiyue replied with a bitter smile.

    Xue Qianxue muttered, "He is a sword saint. Surely not..."

    Yuan Ji was shouting from beyond the door, "Come and have a look inside. It is beautiful in here."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh before they entered through the huge ck door.

    When they had entered through the huge ck door, they were gasping.

    Scattered all over the passage were the rich deposits of jadeites and spirit stones.

    Yuan Ji was delighted as he said, "It seems that we have found a spiritual vein. We can even establish a sect here to cultivate¡­"

    "Maybe not." He began to smile bitterly. It was because he had suddenly remembered that the vicinity of this mountain peak was inhabited by powerful deste beasts. Worse, these deste beasts could even fly and each one of them rivaled a seventh realm saint.

    If anyone was to establish a sect here, the sect would be destroyed in no time.

    "Let''s continue to explore." Yuan Ji said with a soft sigh.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were cuddled together as they walked together. This ce actually gave them a spooky feeling and they had no idea why.

    As for Yuan Ji, he was too full of himself and his undying fighting spirit. Nothing could spooks him.

    After a while Yuan Ji spotted arge fish that was gasping for breath and it was crawling on the slippery ground.

    He was a little amused by it as he thought, "This fish must have identally got on the dry ground. If I don''t put it into the water soon, it will surely die."

    As he took a quick look around, he spotted a pond nearby.

    Without any hesitation, he picked the fish up and threw it into the pond with a loud ssh.

    "Here you go!" Yuan Ji was grinning. "Poor fish!"

    Ling Feiyue was gasping, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Why did you kill that fish for?"

    Even Xue Qianxue was looking at him curiously, "Why did you kill that fish?"

    Yuan Ji was really amused as heughed, "Why do you say that? I am only trying to save the poor fish by throwing it into the water."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly to him, "This type of fish can only dwell onnd and it cannot swim. It will drown the instant that it is ced in the waters."

    "That''s right." Xue Qianxue nodded as she gave him a half-amused look.

    Yuan Ji was stupefied, "You are telling me that there is a fish that can''t swim at all?! Then why is it even a fish in the first ce?!"

    Xiang Li popped into his soul sea and heaved a soft sigh, "This is a unique fish that has lungs instead of grills. It doesn''t stay in the waters and prefer the muddy ground. And yes, it will drown in water because it has heavy armor and will sink in the waters."

    "Serious?" He was startled.

    Yuan Ji began to smile weakly to Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, "I really didn''t know that this stupid fish can''t swim."

    He turned to nce at the pool, "I am sorry, little fellow. I was only trying to help you. May your soul rest in peace."

    Then he turned to smile weakly at Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, "Haha. Let''s go..."

    An hourter; as they got deeper and deeper into the passage, Yuan Ji continued to spot several of the same fishes that were crawling on the slippery ground.

    It took him a great deal of his willpower to resist thepassionate call of his heart to throw the fishes into the nearby pools.

    "This is too ridiculous!" He was cursing softly as he identally kicked a fish into a nearby pool.<sub> </sub>

    "Ops!"

    Xue Qianxue: ...

    "Don''t do that...."

    "Look over here!" Ling Feiyue had suddenly called out.

    She was pointing to a beautiful walled part of the passage that had a golden door in it.

    There was a profound seal on the golden door. But Ling Feiyue was actually quite good in dismantling the profound arrays that were sealing the golden door.

    Less than a few blinks of an eyeter, she had gently pushed open the golden door.

    Yuan Ji and Xue Qianxue shed next to her and the three of them were astonished to find a beautiful chamber within it.

    To say that it was a chamber may be wrong.

    It was more like a garden and there was a spirit nts growing all around the chamber.

    Xue Qianxue gasped, "Some of the spirit nts here are tens of thousands years old. This is a treasure trove of some of the rarest spirit nts. It is no wonder that there are so many of these Titan Draconic Beasts around the vicinity."

    Ling Feiyue was also nodding as her eyes sparkled with delight as the wondrous sight of the hundreds of spirit nts.

    Some of the spirit herbs here were so ancient that they were giving off an invisible animus that could even nourishes the deste beasts from miles away.

    The many deste beasts of the Celestial Realm could often be found near thepany of spirit nts as the spirit nts gave off an animus that empowered and nourished the deste beasts at the same time.

    In exchange, the deste beasts would protect the spirit nts from the celestial cultivators.

    What Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue found was a huge treasure trove of so many celestial herbs that they werepletely overwhelmed.

    "There is also a celestial array here that distorts the true location of this chamber so that it will be off limits to the deste beasts." Xue Qianxue said after taking a look with her divine sense. "A powerful cultivator must have created this ce."

    Ling Feiyue pointed to an arch way inside the chamber, "Look, there is a room over there and a ck que on the wall."

    Curious, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had approached the ck que and they were already deciphering it. "None shall disturb the resting ce of the Null Abyss Goddess¡­"

    "Qianxue, Feiyue. Come inside. There is a coffin inside." Yuan Ji was shouting to them excitingly from inside the arch way.

    Yuan Ji had actually walked into the arch way while they were busy deciphering the ck que and had hacked the sealed entrance with his sword.

    With soft resignations, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue hurriedly entered the archway to look for Yuan Ji.

    Inside the arch way, was a beautiful crystal coffin and Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin as he stared at the crystal coffin.

    When Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were next to Yuan Ji, they were startled to see that it was actually a transparent crystal coffin and inside it, was the lifeless body of a peerless maiden whose looks could melt the hearts of both men and women. This lifeless maiden gave off unearthly presence and did not seem to be from this world.

    Yuan Ji was gasping at the sight of the dead maiden inside coffin, "What an exquisite maiden. This crystal coffin must be her final resting ce."

    "Who is she?" Yuan Ji muttered.

    Ling Feiyue replied, "Null Abyss Goddess something like this. We got interrupted by you before we can decipher the message on the que outside."

    "Well, it doesn''t matter." Yuan Ji said. "She is dead anyway. But how did her body get preserve so perfectly? When I first found her, I really thought that she is only asleep."

    Xue Qianxue said, "Maybe this crystal coffin is a rare celestial treasure that can preserve the body."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he pped his hands, "Precisely!"

    All of a sudden he was trying to push open the lid of the coffin.

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue was gasping, "What are you doing? Don''t tell me that you are so lecherous till you are not sparing the dead?"

    Even Xue Qianxue was horrified, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Leave the coffin alone!"

    "Of course not." Ji Yuan was frowning as he replied. He soon took out his sword and swung open the lid of the coffin with his profound sword energies. "It is really easy to open."

    Yuan Ji quickly crawled into the coffin as he lifted the peerless maiden up.

    Ling Feiyue was panicky, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Put her down immediately. This is too disrespectful to the dead¡­"

    "Be careful of getting corpse poisoning. She seemed to be dead for thousands of years¡­" Xue Qianxue warned him.

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am a seventh realm golden saint. Poisons don''t work on me¡­"

    Xiang Li muttered to him in his soul sea, "If it is corpse poison then it is a different thing."

    When Yuan Ji heard Xiang Li, he panicky threw the lifeless maiden to the side before he said excitingly to Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, "Let''s go!"

    "Where to?" Xue Qianxue asked curiously.

    "Yes, where to?" Ling Feiyue was wondering the same too.

    "We are going to dig Yuxian up and to put her into this coffin. Only in this way can I see her evesting beauty forever." Yuan Ji returned a deep sigh.

    "Ji Yuan, I think what you are doing is absolutely wrong. You are too disrespectful to the dead and you are even trying to steal her coffin¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her with a solemn look, "You may think that I am wrong in doing so. But can you understand the grief that is in my heart when Yuxian dies right in front of me? Why can''t I save her? If only I know her heart earlier, I would have taken her away when I was fleeing. Now it is toote for regrets. Since there is no medicine for regrets then I may as well give her a good coffin."

    When Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue heard him, they did not know how to persuade him either.

    Therefore they could only follow him to dig up Saintess Jian Yuluo''s lifeless body again.

 Chapter 89 The Lightning Tribulation (1)

    Yuan Ji was now digging the grave of his beloved Yuxian again. But this time, it was to take her out of the grave instead of confining her inside.

    It was because he had found a crystal coffin which was actually a profound treasure that could preserve her.

    Halfway through the dig, the heavens were suddenly rumbling and the entire heavens were suddenly dark and the entire mountains were covered in a deep shroud of darkness.

    Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were startled by the sudden change in the heavens. They had nevere across a storm that could suddenly descend upon so quickly.

    But Ling Feiyue had and she had turned ashen, "Ji Yuan, Qianxue! This is the lightning cmity!" She quickly divined with her fingers and shockingly said. "It is descending upon this location!"

    Yuan Ji was stunned, "Lightning cmity?"

    He turned to look at Xue Qianxue as he stammered, "Don''t tell me that you are having your lightning tribtion at this time?"

    Xue Qianxue was the only middle-tier seventh realm saintess here. Moreover she was also a peaked middle-tier saintess. When a cultivator had reached the peaked middle-tier seventh realm sacred saint level, they would no longer advance.

    The only way for them to advance to the upper tier seventh realm sacred saint level was for them to have a lucky urrence and chanced an encounter with a lightning tribtion.

    To the celestial cultivators, chancing an encounter with a lightning tribtion was equally deadly and hence, it was also called the fourth life and death tribtion. Naturally, no one wanted to chance it too early.

    Xue Qianxue had a perplexed look as she said, "It is definitely not me because I don''t have any foreboding for it. Moreover I am not at the peaked middle-tier yet¡­"

    Yuan Ji gave her a perplexed look, "You''re not?"

    Xue Qianxue shook her head, "My realm level didn''t advance for the past hundred years¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Even Ling Feiyue was startled. "Is it because of me?"

    A hundred years ago, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were both middle heaven-step saintesses. Each tier had an initial, middle, upper and a peak stage. Except for the peak stage, each stage had a half-step, mortal, earth, heaven and a peak step to denote the cultivator''s cultivation progression.

    After Ling Feiyue had defeated Xue Qianxue, she had advanced from a middle heaven-step saintess to a middle peak saintess. Shortly after, she had ovee her lightning tribtion and had be a great saintess, a celestial title that was only reserved for cultivators that had entered the upper seven realm sacred saint level.

    When cultivators had reached the sixth and the seventh realm level, cultivating alone was not enough to expand their spiritual boundaries to attain to the next stage or step. It was because they had to focus on their state of divinity for enlightenment in order to achieve a breakthrough.

    The sixth realm level was called the ''Spirit Level'' while the seventh realm level was called the ''Soul Level''.

    A hundred years ago when Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had their duel, they were hoping to achieve a breakthrough to the peak of their middle seventh realm sacred saint level by defeating each other. Their duel was not a matter of who had the greater profound strength or who had the superior fighting techniques but who had the superior state of divinity in their ''Soul Level''.

    Ling Feiyue had ''cheated'' by conspiring with Xia Jiajia to cause Xue Qianxue to lose at thest minute by affecting her mental state.

    Although Ling Feiyue had won, she was extremely guilty about it.

    After their duel, the two maidens had be close friends and had secretly kept in touch with each other. At the same time the two of them had also ced a bounty for ''Ji Yuan'' who had fled away from them ever since that day.

    When Xue Qianxue had secretly sent Ling Feiyue a secret message asking whether it was possible for her to help her to leave the Celestial Orthodox Sect, Ling Feiyue did not hesitated at all even though she knew that it was an extremely risky thing to do.

    At that time Yuan Ji had just broken her heart and this had caused her to choose the most direct and confrontation approach to rescue Xue Qianxue, not realizing that Yuan Ji was also there.

    Yuan Ji had thought that Ling Feiyue had a feud with Xue Qianxue and therefore he did not want to tell her anything about Xue Qianxue. After all, he had personally witnessed their duel with each other and moreover they were from two opposing fraternities. He had indeed never dreamt that these two peerless maidens would actually be the best of friends after their duel.

    Xue Qianxue was now looking at Yuan Ji, "Is it you?"

    Yuan Ji replied weakly, "I have only justpleted my initial half-step seventh realm and is only at the mortal step. I am still so far away from the middle sacred saint level. How can it be me?"

    The initial half-step stage was the period of solidifying the cultivator''s soul sea. Yuan Ji had only be a full fledge initial saint only just a while ago.

    Ling Feiyue suddenly muttered with a weak smile, "Do you think it is because we are cursed? Or because we have done something really wrong in the eyes of the heavens and this is a heavenly retribution?"

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "Don''t be silly. We didn''t do anything wrong¡­"

    But Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue interrupted him with a feeble look as they said together, "You had forced open the forbidden ck door, hack open the crystal coffin and threw the body inside carelessly around."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "This is my divine retribution?" Yuan Ji muttered with disbelief. "Surely not¡­"

    "Or else we cannot exin why the lightning tribtion has appeared." Ling Feiyue sighed softly.

    Yuan Ji had jumped into the grave as he panicky tried to carefully removed the huge pile of heavy rocks that he had ced on top of the make shift coffin that he had made for Yuxian. "I must get her body out of here before the lightning tribtion strikes¡­"

    All of a sudden a silver lightning thundered through the dark heavens and had struck Yuan Ji with a thunderous impact and his surrounding had immediately burst into tiny mes!

    Yuan Ji coughed out a bout of golden blood as he staggered to steady his footing.

    "Ji Yuan!" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were panicky.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly as he struggled to stand, "I am alright. This amount of lightning is nothing."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were immediately at his side as they checked his injuries. They were suddenly dismayed to find that Yuan Ji was much more seriously hurt than they had expected!

    However his injuries were not due to the lightning attack but were caused by his earlier battle with the Titan Draconic Beast. As Yuan Ji did not want them to worry, he was putting on a brave front and pretended that he was not injured.

    Ji Yuan said knew that he had to face this lightning tribtion today no matter what.

    There were many stories of cultivators trying to escape from their lightning tribtion when their time was up and all of them would die without fail. It was because the lightning tribtion also measured their mental fortitude to survive. The minute that the cultivators had decided to flee, their pain threshold to withstand the lightning tribtions would drop tremendously. Only if the cultivator had a high state of divinity would they be able to survive through the lightning tribtion.

    There was another reason why Yuan Ji did not flee from the spot; when the lightning tribtion had descended on a location, the destruction that was caused by the lightning tribtion would be heavily confined. But should the cultivator moved or ran away from the descended spot, that spot would be destroyed by the fury of the heavenly tribtions.

    Even if Yuan Ji did not care for the descended spot and ran to hide in the cave, there would be earthquakes and lightning that would follow him to his hiding ce.

    There were actually many cultivators that had actually tried to run away even when they know that they should not do so. Eventually they would all die of exhaustion. It was because the lightning tribtion was actually drawing upon the profound strength of the cultivator to return a returning strike.<sub> </sub>

    Now this was actually the worst death of all deaths.

    It was because the further they were away from the designated spot, the more their profound strength was taken and when their profound strength was taken, they would age prematurely every time the lightning tribtion fires a lightning bolt.

    But of course Yuan Ji would not run because he needed to protect the grave from damage.

    What was perplexing to him was that he had no idea how he had triggered the lightning tribtion!

    He was cursing silently, "I''m only at the initial sacred saint level. How the heck did I trigger the lightning tribtion?"

    "Qianxue, we need to protect this grave but the lightning tribtion will be descending anytime soon." Ling Feiyue said solemnly.

    Xue Qianxue immediately knew what Ling Feiyue was trying to say next, so she chuckled softly. "I guess that I have to forcefully be a great saintess today. The only way for us to avert the lightning cmity is to face its tribtion."

    Yuan Ji immediately interrupted her sharply, "You are not ready for your fourth life and death tribtion. Moreover you are with child. It will be dangerous for you and for our child."

    Xue Qianxue returned a gentle smile to him, "Although I am not in the best of my condition but this is also a good chance for me to advance in my cultivation realm. Therefore I should make full use of it. Also with Sister Feiyue here, I am not anxious at all."

    Yuan Ji said bitterly, "Do you know that this lightning tribtion is actually after me? Although I do not know why but trust me, you don''t have to do it for me."

    He knew that these two maidens were actually trying to use their more superior spiritual boundaries to help him to ovee the lightning tribtion.

    In terms of cultivation strength, his soul sea was the weakest!

    Xue Qianxue said with great conviction, "I have already decided to do this."

    When she had said that, the silver lightning in the heavens above had suddenly be golden in color!

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were greatly startled.

    This was the golden lightning tribtion and it was even more dangerous than the silver lightning tribtion!

    "We need to prepare immediately." Ling Feiyue said hastily as she threw dozens of high grade spirit stones around them before she formed the spirit stones into a celestial array.

    Xue Qianxue followed suit as she asked Ling Feiyue, "When you have be a great saintess, what is your lightning tribtion?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "I have only the silver lightning tribtion. This is my first time facing a golden lightning tribtion. Guess I have my fifth life and death tribtion today."

    There were actually three types of lightning tribtions; the three-stage silver lightning tribtion, the six-stage golden lightning tribtion and the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion.

    When a saint had survived the lightning tribtion, their spiritual boundaries would expand to the great saint spiritual boundaries. At the same time, they would receive added life span as well.  Usually the three-stage silver lightning would add 3000 more years, the six-stage golden lightning tribtion would add 6000 more years while the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion would add 9000 more years.

    Needless to say, the life span of a great saint was monstrous whenpared to the other cultivators and even to the rest of the seventh realm saints. Hence, there was a ''great'' title to the cultivators that could breakthrough to the upper seventh realm sacred saint level.

    The three-stage silver lightning tribtion was nine times more fearsome than a normal lightning while the six-stage golden lightning tribtion was thirty-six times more deadly than a normal lightning. As for the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion, it was eighty-one times more deadly than a normal lightning.

    When Ling Feiyue had be a great saintess, she had taken the three-stage silver lightning three times.

    The three-stage silver lightning was the mostmonly encountered and it had a mortality rate of 90%. It was to say that only 10% of the saints would survive the silver lightning three times.

    The six-stage golden lightning was a rare sight, only appearing if the cultivator could achieve a high state of divinity. Usually it could only be encountered by the venerable sages. Again, the mortality was also 90%. It was really not easy to survive six hits which was doubled that of a three-stage silver lightning. Moreover, each of the golden lightning was four times more powerful or thirty-six times deadlier than a normal lightning.

    As for the nine-stage purple lightning, it was almost unheard of. It was rumored that if it were to appear then the cultivator must really be a heaven-defying person. After all, no one could imagine anyone that could survive nine times of the most powerful lightning bolt in the Celestial Realm.

    Yuan Ji was cursing loudly to the heavens, "What the heck?! I have attracted the golden tribtion lightning?! I am only a lowly saint!"

    Xue Qianxue quietly said, "It is because you have survived a lightning from the golden tribtion lightning array. It has the same power as the golden lightning tribtion. Anyone that survives through the golden lightning tribtion will not be able to receive the weaker three-stage silver lightning."

    Yuan Ji was stupefied, "I have the Celestial Orthodox Sect to thank for this then."

    Ling Feiyue said quietly to Yuan Ji and Xue Qianxue, "If we can survive six strokes of the golden lightning tribtion then our ordeals will be over. The pain will be agonizing, both mentally and physically. Please endure to the best of your abilities."

    While she was saying it, she was quietly exchanging a secret look with Xue Qianxue. They were secretly sighing in their hearts. It was because Yuan Ji was not even a middle saint and for him to face the lightning tribtion at this point, especially the golden lightning tribtion, this was really expecting too much from him.

    Just his profound strength disparity alone was already a big gap whenpared to them. Moreover Xue Qianxue had the Sacred Maiden Profound Arts to protect her while Ling Feiyue had her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force. As for Yuan Ji, he was just a pure sword practitioner.

    Yuan Ji was urged on by his undying fighting spirit as he shouted angrily to the heavens, "It is only six strokes of golden lightening. Do you think your big daddy here is afraid of you?"

    The dark heavens responded by booming thunderously and the golden lightning had suddenly be multiple shes of purple lightning!

    Suddenly the six-stage golden lightning tribtion had now be the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion!

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Don''t look at me like this. How do I know that this lightning tribtion can be so easily angered?"

    Xiang Li had appeared in Yuan Ji''s soul sea with a sheepish look, "Actually it is me that has caused the purple lightning tribtion to appear. How do I know that you will be facing your lightning tribtion so soon?"

    Yuan Ji said bitterly, "Xiang Li, you are finally here. What the hell is going on around here?"

    Xiang Li closed her eyes before opening her eyes with an unhappy look, "Apparently someone wants you dead and has triggered this lightning tribtion for you."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Who is that someone?"

    Xiang Li shook her head, "As for who, I really do not know. This someone is an extreme character that can even manipte the lightning tribtion. I am afraid that this time we are in serious trouble. Can you remember who you have offendedtely?"

    Yuan Ji frowned, "I am a peace loving person and I don''t have any enemies."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "I don''t believe in any divine retributions.." Yuan Ji muttered.

    "Xiang Li, do you think that someone is actually the King of the Fishes? I just remember that I have identally killed two innocent fishes earlier. But then I was trying to help them actually..."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

 Chapter 90 The Lightning Tribulation (2)

    These are themon rules when attempting for any breakthroughs and tribtions;

    One, the heart must first be calmed.

    Two, never attempt a breakthrough when you are injured especially when suffering from internal injuries.

    Three, find a quiet ce with high purity of spiritual auras.

    Four, obtain a divine sword, the higher grade the better to act as a soul link to bolster up the cultivator elixir inner sea. There is a higher chance if the cultivator is able to divine harmonize with the divine sword.

    Five, prepare as many high grade soul jewels for emergency uses.

    Six, ready as many celestial treasures as possible that can aid your chances.

    Seven, pray for the blessing of the heavens.

    Yuan Ji was frowning at the manual for breakthroughs and tribtions that Xue Qianxue had carelessly throw on the ground. "It seems that I have only met one and four of the manual."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "It seems that you have only met the fourth rule."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "That is so true..."

    "Done!" Ling Feiyue giggled softly as shepleted the celestial array setup.

    Usually before the Lightning Tribtion would strike, they would have an hour of preparation time.

    In less than an hour, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had ced more than a thousand high grade spirit stones around them. At the same time, they were distributing dozens of fourth rank divine pills and a few fifth rank divine pills to one another.

    Yuan Ji had even consumed a fifth realm divine pill and his injuries were rapidly recovering.

    All sorts of heaven-step profound treasures were taken out by Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as they hastily ced it within their protective arrays.

    The Artefact Bell of the Heaven''s Path¡­

    Soul Armor of the War Sovereign¡­

    The Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch¡­

    God Emperor''s Rope¡­

    Heaven Smiting Cauldron¡­

    Five Elements Profound Mirror of the Forgotten Immortals¡­

    Yuan Ji muttered when he saw the profound treasures that were disyed in front of him, "They are too rich. What is the challenge of cultivation when you have so many profound treasures to aid you?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "If you drink from the Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch while you are consuming profound pills, the effectiveness of the profound pills will be doubled."

    "The Artefact Bell of the Heaven''s Path can be used three times to bring the soul of the cultivator back and refortify the mental fortitude." Xue Qianxue smiled as she shed it in front of him. "This Soul Armor of the War Sovereign is for me to wear. It has great defensive properties¡­"

    "And this Five Elements Profound Mirror of the Forgotten Immortals is able to reduce the power of the lightning. It is the most useful..."

    Yuan Ji gasped as he interrupted Xue Qianxue, "Indeed. How did you get something so precious? How many times can we use it?"

    Xue Qianxue pondered for a while, "I forget to ask. I got it from Third Young Master Jian Menghao, who is now your son¡­"

    Yuan Ji muttered unhappily, "You are not to receive any more gifts from now on. And when I am not around, you''re not allowed to see him ever again."

    Xue Qianxue said with a soft chuckle, "Do you have to be jealous at this critical time?"

    Yuan Ji ignored her as he picked up a rope, "This rope has an awesome name. The God Emperor''s Rope. What is it used for?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled shyly, "In case you think that you can no longer endure it, you can use this God Emperor''s Rope to strangle yourself. Absolutely no pain whatever so."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I have a profound treasure too." He said as put down a five leaf clover.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue quickly used their divine sense and were disappointed that the leaf did not seem to contain any profound or spiritual energies.

    "You can''t figure it out, am I right?" Yuan Ji smiled proudly. "This is my lucky charm. It has aided me on many asions. I survive all my life and death breakthroughs with this lucky charm of mine."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were speechless.

    "It is just some cheapskate leaf¡­" Xue Qianxue muttered.

    "It doesn''t even have any profound powers within it to aid us¡­" Ling Feiyue was exasperated.

    "But it works nevertheless." Yuan Ji smiled proudly as he lifted it up for the two maidens to admire.

    All of a sudden the five leaf clover was torn apart by the furious winds that were blowing all around them.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "My lucky charm¡­"

    "I guess that your luck has run out this time." Ling Feiyue patted him lightly on his shoulder.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "That is alright. I still have more than a dozen of these."

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Yuan Jiughed as he held them tightly together.

    Soon the three of them were looking gently at each other as they cuddled in one another warmth embrace...

    Xue Qianxue was the first to break the silence as she smiled gently, "Ji Yuan, it is so good to have you. Feiyue, if there is a next life, I want to have you as my sister again and I want to be with Ji Yuan as well."

    Ling Feiyue smiled bitterly, "My only regrets are that I have met the two of you toote. We have waste a hundred years. I wish that we can have another hundred years together."<sub> </sub>

    "We will not die." Yuan Ji said solemnly as he held them even tighter.

    He was now looking keenly at the heavens above. There was a strong foreboding as he turned solemn, "The Lightning Tribtion is about to start soon."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were all looking at the multiple shes of purple lightning nervously.

    Although they were all teasing around earlier, it was only to pacify their anxiety as they prepared themselves to face the most dangerous nine-stage purple lightning tribtion.

    Yuan Ji had raised his heaven-step divine sword high up, "We will surely ovee it together."

    The golden animus of a winged battle maiden had burst forth from Xue Qianxue''s profound aura as she disyed her heaven-step divine sword. This was her highest level internal profound art the Ninth Rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art!

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly as she raised her heaven-step divine sword high up too and a thin burst of golden light from her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force had surrounded her. "Ji Yuan, do you think that we can use the same lightning trick that we have used in the Lotus Sword Mansion to ovee the lightning tribtion?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "We can definitely try it¡­"

    "Oh no, you don''t or you will surely die¡­" A voice had suddenly said from nowhere, startling Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue. The ghostly apparition of Xiang Li had suddenly appeared above Yuan Ji.

    Even Yuan Ji was startled because Xiang Li was not supposed to have the ability to take incorporeal form yet until she had merged into his soul sea. At this moment, Xiang Li was just taking residence in his divine sword.

    Xiang Li smiled deliciously at the two maidens, "I''m Yuan Ji''s spirit entity and my name is Xiang Li."

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "You are the spirit entity of the Lotus Sword Mansion! You look much younger now..."

    She panicky turned to look at Yuan Ji with a stunned expression, "You didn''t lie to me. You really got the spirit entity of the Lotus Sword Mansion as your spirit entity¡­"

    "A sentient spirit entity?!" Xue Qianxue was gasping. "I have only heard rumors of it but have never seen one. Sentient spirit entity are said to have only one in one million chance of urring¡­"

    "One in one hundred million to be exact." Xiang Li chuckled.

    Yuan Ji however was frowning, "Xiang Li, how is it possible for you to appear?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "That''s because I have now merged with your soul sea. What you are seeing now is the profound energies of your soul sea¡­"

    "Well, don''t appear too often. You will drain me of my profound strength and moreover you are scaring the others with your ugly look." Yuan Ji interrupted.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "No, she isn''t ugly. She is cute and beautiful."

    "She is extremely beautiful." Ling Feiyue was smiling as she looked in awe at Xiang Li. "Very beautiful spirit entity."

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue had a weird expression and there was a flush on her countenance, "Ji Yuan, does it mean that while we are¡­doing¡­Xiang Li is able to see and hear us?"

    Even Ling Feiyue was startled and she had taken a step backward with a soft gasp, "This¡­I hope not¡­"

    Yuan Ji panicky stammered out, "Oh no, of course not! Xiang Li is the most innocent spirit entity ever. She has no concept of that sort of thing. Moreover as her master, I have ordered to seal off all her profound senses every time. So don''t worry about it."

    "That is right! Xiang Li is absolute pure and innocent!" Xiang Li dered proudly. "I always listen to¡­master."

    It took Xiang Li a little difficulty to mutter out the word ''Master''.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had a soft sigh of relief.

    Xiang Li had suddenly remembered why she was out, "The trick that you use in the Lotus Sword Mansion doesn''t work with the Lightning Tribtion. It is because the lightning actually consists of multiple strokes of lightning, able to strike all of you at the same time. Should you lose your divine swords, you will be quite vulnerable. The lightning tribtion will unerringly strike at your soul sea because it drawn its profound strength from you."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he muttered, "Our soul sea is the natural ma¡­"

    "Therefore it is impossible to cheat. As a matter of fact, with the three of you taking the lightning tribtion together, it is also a lot riskier. Even if one of you is killed, the lightning tribtion will still be able to drawn upon the vital energies of the dead. As you know, my master is the weakest link. Once he is killed, all of you will have to bear the burden of his lightning tribtion¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted unhappily, "Why am I the weakest link?"

    All of a sudden he noticed that Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were nodding lightly as they listened intently to Xiang Li.

    "Alright, I am a little weak." Yuan Ji frowned lightly. "But Xiang Li is the weakest here. Moreover she is also useless¡­"

    Xiang Li raised her fingers and all of a sudden Xue Qianxue''s winged battled maiden had be a four winged battle maiden and the profound animus has even enveloped Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    "Maiden Qianxue''s profound animus is now able to protect the two of you just as effective as protecting herself."

    Then Xiang Li pointed at Ling Feiyue''s sword and there was a beautiful white halo around it. It was not just on Ling Feiyue''s divine sword but the white halo had also appeared in Yuan Ji and Xue Qianxue divine swords as well!

    "What is it?" Everyone was startled.

    Xiang Li proudly said, "I have enhanced Maiden Feiyue''s sword spirit by a little. Moreover as long as Maiden Feiyue is still around and you are near her, her sword spirit would also be able to affect you."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were all gasping with shock, "Xiang Li, you are so impressive¡­you are the most impressive spirit entity that I have ever seen."

    "I wish that I can have such a cute and beautiful spirit entity like you." Xue Qianxue was sighing.

    "Same here!" Ling Feiyue was looking impressed by Xiang Li. "Xiang Li is the most wondrous spirit entity that I''ve ever seen."

    Xiang Li smiled proudly, "Of course! I am the most awesome spirit entity that can enhance the spirit entities of the others¡­"

    Yuan Ji muttered almost incoherently, "I think that you are still the most useless because you can only enhance the others but not yourself¡­"

    Then he was rubbing his chin, "Should I tell them that it is actually Xiang Li that is causing the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion to appear? Or maybe when I tell them about Xiang Li dark side then they would not be so impressed."

    Yuan Ji pretended to cough, "Ahem! We should be focusing on our lightning tribtion¡­"

    "Xiang Li, do you think that we can be friends with you?" The two maidens were asking Xiang Li.

    "Of course! You can summon me anytime like my master to chat with me!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji cursed Xiang Li in his heart, "I can''t remember a time when I can summon you¡­"

 Chapter 91 The Lightning Tribulation (3)

    Yuan Ji was actually astonished that Xiang Li had the ability to enhance the spirit animus to epass all three of them.

    "Why didn''t you tell me that you got such a great ability?" He had secretly asked her when she was back into his soul sea.

    Xiang Li chuckled shyly as she ced her fingers on her mouth, "I can only affect those that you have dual cultivate with."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji decided to ignore Xiang Li for now. It was because the lightning tribtion was starting soon.

    From the dark heavens, a purple streak of lightning with multiple forks had descended with a brilliant purple sh upon Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue at the same time!

    The four winged battle maiden of the golden profound animus that was disyed by Xue Qianxue was the first to be hit by the purple lightning. In that very instant, Xue Qianxue''s four winged battle maiden werepletely dissipated by the tremendous profound power of the first purple lightning.

    If the winged battle maiden was Xue Qianxue''s spirit entity, it would be surely be destroyed in that very instant. Having a spirit entity destroyed would have serious consequences on a cultivator''s soul sea and would cause a severe loss of vital profound strength. In the worse situation, the cultivator may even suffer a loss in cultivation strength and may even drop in realm level.

    But luckily for Xue Qianxue, the winged maiden was not a spirit entity but an illusion created by her Sacred Maiden Profound Art.

    Although Xue Qianxue was already a saintess but she did not have any spirit entity yet. Even though a spirit entity could be produced from the artefact core of a sixth rank deste beast but the chance of that happening was only too rare.

    Now Xue Qianxue''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art was a unique profound art that could shape the practitioner''s profound animus into a battle maiden which closely resembled a spirit entity. Although it was not the actual case here but her Sacred Maiden Profound Art was closely rted to the spirit entities.

    As a matter of fact, should Xue Qianxue were to have a spirit entity in the future, she would empower her battle maiden with the added support of a spirit entity. Because her spirit entity was secondary to the battle maiden that was formed by the Sacred Maiden Profound Art, she would freely discard the spirit entity for a new spirit entity without affecting her soul sea. Even if the spirit entity was destroyed, her soul sea would not be affected.

    Also if Xue Qianxue''s winged battle maiden was destroyed like in this instance by the purple lightning, her soul sea would also not be affected as it was not a real spirit entity. However a great deal of her profound strength would dissipate as a result from the destruction of her profound animus.

    The winged battle maiden that was epassing Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had managed to reduce the profound power of the purple lightning by 30%.

    In their eyes, this was a massive reduction and a matter of life and death as they raised their divine swords to negate the profound power of the purple lightning.

    BOOM!!!

    There was a thunderous boom as the purple lightning sted into them.

    Yuan Ji yelled aloud as the purple lightning ripped through his soul sea with a thunderous impact before throwing him upside down as hended on the ground.

    A few aftershockster, arge pit had appeared around them and a smoldering smoke could be seen.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were also on the ground and they were trembling.

    "Is everyone alright?" Yuan Ji coughed weakly as he struggled to stand up.

    "I''m alright." Ling Feiyue coughed out weakly.

    Xue Qianxue nodded quietly as she popped a profound pill.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue knew that Xue Qianxue had used the most profound strength and she was trying to stabilize her erratic profound energies at the moment and could not speak.

    Yuan Ji took a quick look behind him and was relieved that the grave was still intact. But he was soon sighing heavily; the profound power of the purple lightning was too powerful.

    If it was not for Xiang Li earlier, they would all have been more seriously injured.

    For that, Yuan Ji was secretly grateful to Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li said to him from inside his soul sea as she shook her head, "The first purple lightning had dissipated 20% of your spiritual sea. This is not good."

    Before the first purple lightning had struck, Xiang Li had already retreated into Yuan Ji''s soul sea. It was because she dared not stay outside as she was vulnerable to the terrifying profound power of the lightning tribtion. She was a spirit entity now after all.

    Yuan Ji knew that it was not good because there was nine more purple lightning left to go. Expending 20% of his soul sea was not the same as saying he could tank four more hits. In fact, it was way lesser than that.

    It was because the soul sea was the real profound strength of the cultivator. The term for that was vital profound strength which was their true essence. When it was reduced, their profound power and defenses would also drop.

    The next purple lightning would definitely drain more than 20% of Yuan Ji''s soul sea and that was why Xiang Li had said that it was not good.

    "We have to use the Five Elements Profound Mirror of the Forgotten Immortals for the next purple lightning." Ling Feiyue said solemnly as she popped in a few profound pills. "Let''s hope that this mirror does not shatter on the very first hit."

    After she had said that she was stroking Xue Qianxue''s back to help her up, "Sister Xue, are you alright?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded weakly.

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "There is a five minute interval before the next strike. Let''s cultivate back our profound strength as much as possible first."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he popped a fourth rank profound pill that could be used for regaining some of his profound strength. It was given to him by Xue Qianxue.

    The two maidens had actually given him many profound pills earlier and he was stunned by the amount of profound pills that they had.

    He could not help muttering to himself that they were good-for-nothing wastrels after they had given him these profound pills which were worth several times thebined wealth of the Emperor Hall Sect and tens of times more than the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    "Ji Yuan, you are only taking a fourth rank profound pill? Take it with the fifth rank profound rank. It is more effective this way." Xue Qianxue said to him with a weak voice.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly as he reluctantly popped in a fifth rank profound pill and he could feel that he was swallowing a huge gold mine and his heart felt extremely painful. This was too wasteful for him¡­

    Suddenly he could hear Xiang Li sobbing in the corner of his soul sea, "Yuan Ji, sorry¡­it is all my fault. If it is just the golden lightning tribtion, we will surely have a good chance of oveing it. It is because of my heaven defying presence that your golden lightning tribtion has be a purple lightning tribtion¡­"

    Yuan Ji said gently to her with a softugh, "Xiang Li, it isn''t your fault. It is just that I am too weak. Maybe I am actually the one that fault and this is my heavenly retribution for defiling an ancient cursed tomb. Haha."

    Then he grew solemn, "Xiang Li, I won''t let you die. It is not just you but Qianxue and Feiyue as well. I will safeguard all of you."

    Xiang Li sobbed, "But at this rate even with all the miraculous profound pills, we won''t be able to make it."

    Yuan Ji was quiet for a while but all of a sudden Yuan Ji was shouting excitingly to Xiang Li, "I''ve got an idea. Maybe we got a hope!"

    After he had said that to Xiang Li, he was shouting exciting to Ling Feiyue in the howling winds, "Feiyue, Qianxue! I got an idea. It may work."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue opened their eyes as they curiously looked at him, "Yes?"

    Yuan Ji turned to Ling Feiyue, "Do you remember ourbined profound art? The Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly; he had actually remembered the name of ourbined profound art?

    She quickly smiled shyly, "I do!"

    "We can use it against the lightning tribtion." Yuan Ji pointed out.

    Ling Feiyue had a look of hesitation, "Will it work?" It was because the purple lightning was obviously more powerful.

    Then Yuan Ji turned to Xue Qianxue and smiled, "We also need Qianxue''s Sacred Maiden Profound Art to support us."

    Xue Qianxue immediately got it and she was smiling, "This may just work!"

    The Sacred Maiden Profound Art was also an internal profound art and could be used to empower the profound strength of the other practitioners.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Rather than being on the defensive, why don''t we turn it into the offensive?"

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were both nodding, "We will wait for your timing!"

    "This is the n¡­"

    Before long, the next purple lightning had burst from the dark heavens.

    "Flying Coiling Dragon Sword!"

    "Retribution of the Profound Heaven Light!"

    "Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon!" Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue shouted the name of theirbined profound art together as it merged perfectly.

    At the same time, Xue Qianxue had gently put her hands on their backs as the spirit animus of a four winged battle maiden appeared in a halo around her. This time round the winged battle maiden was much smaller because Xue Qianxue was channelling her profound energies into Ling Feiyue and Yuan Ji as profound power for theirbined profound art.

    It was even more beautiful and brilliant than thest time that they had used it because this time their divine swords were empowered by a sword spirit and Xue Qianxue''s four wings battle maiden were empowering their profound arts.

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue quickly disyed the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon as a beautiful beam of white light lit with the golden animus of a four wing coiling dragon had flown into the heavens.

    There was a slight difference this time; the coiling dragon had spurted four golden wings and even the heavenly beam of profound light had a golden animus surrounding it.

    The three of them had sessfullybined their profound arts together, creating yet another miracle!

    There were a thunderous brilliant re as the purple lightning and the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon shed in an outburst of profound energies, causing the already strong winds to blow even more furious and the aftershocks produced by the two opposing profound energies were so great that Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had all skidded several steps back.

    But there was a joyous look on their faces; it was because they hadpletely stopped the purple lightning!

    "Ourbined profound power is able to neutralize the lightning tribtion." Yuan Ji was smiling.

    "We may be able to survive after all¡­" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were smiling as they exchanged a sentimental look at Yuan Ji.<sub> </sub>

    All of a sudden the whole heavens were lit with purple lightning and the purple lightning appeared to be chaining together, startling everyone.

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "The purple tribtion is nowbining together to deliver the next strike against us. It is because we have beaten the lightning tribtion and it is now increasing its ferocity. The good news is, we don''t have to take all nine purple lightning now. The bad news is that, it will be several times stronger."

    Yuan Ji said, "We have to use all the profound treasures now."

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "I have mixed a powerful fifth rank profound pill in the Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch. It is almost ready to be consumed soon. The Chalice is now dissolving the profound pill. When this is ready, we can replenish some of our lost spiritual seas by absorbing the spirit stones around us."

    Yuan Ji nodded before he said, "We shall use the Five Elements Profound Mirror to reduce the power of lightning first. We can also use the Artefact Bell of the Heaven''s Path too."

    Then he asked Ling Feiyue, "How many times more can you use your Retribution of the Profound Heaven Light?"

    It was because the key to oveing the Lightning Tribtion actuallyy with Ling Feiyue now.

    Ling Feiyue replied candidly, "Only one or twice. Each use actually used up half of my profound strength. Moreover when webine it into our new profound art together, it will actually drain more than 90% of my profound strength. But because I''m a great saintess, I am able to recover fast. If I count all the profound pills and spirit stones that I have used, I can use it two more times at most."

    Yuan Ji nodded and at the same time he was rubbing his chin to ponder. They would not be depending too much one the profound pills. It was because the effectiveness of the profound pills had a reduced effect after the first profound pill was taken. It did not matter what type of profound pill it was because the body could not absorb all the profound pills at once. In fact, taking so many profound pills at once would end up bing a powerful poison for the cultivator instead.

    It was a lucky thing that the three of them were all seventh realm cultivators and as long as they do not recklessly take too many profound pills at once, they would still be able to absorb the profound pills. However, the effectiveness of the profound pills would still be lost from taking so many profound pills at once.

    Yuan Ji gave Ling Feiyue a sentimental look before saying, "After the third lightning tribtion, we shall let Feiyue drink from the Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch."

    Ling Feiyue had a look of hesitation but slowly she nodded. At first, she had actually wanted Yuan Ji to drink from the Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch but now it seemed that she was expending the most profound strength.

    Five minutes had quickly passed.

    The next purple lightning was now about to descend. The whole skies had now turned white and purple as multiple chains of lightning were now forming like a purple serpent.

    There was an explosive thunderp that shook the heavens and the earth as the purple lightning had descended upon the trio.

    Again, they had used theirbined profound art.

    This time they had thrown up the Five Elements Profound Mirror first. As the purple lightning struck the Five Elements Profound Mirror, some of its profound energies were scattered but the bulk of its profound power was still intact as the two profound energies shed with a brilliant re.

    Again the same thing had happened except that the explosion in the mid-air was so furious that Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were all thrown violently on the ground as the purple lightning went through them almost without any hindrances and draining them of their profound strength.

    Yuan Ji was rmed that 30% of his spiritual seas had been dissipated by the purple lightning. He could only imagine that it may be worse for Ling Feiyue.

    He quickly got on his feet as he took the Chalice of the Ancient Godly Monarch for the fallen Ling Feiyue to have a sip.

    "Sister Yue, are you alright?" Xue Qianxue was panicky as she helped Ling Feiyue up.

    Ling Feiyue was trembling lightly as she forced herself to smile weakly, "I am alright. Don''t give me all the sips. Take some for yourself too. The two of you need it as much as I do. I am a¡­great saintess¡­"

    Yuan Ji forced her to drink all the sips that were in the chalice, "I don''t care if you are a great saintess. You are my woman and I am forcing you to drink to thest drop."

    Ling Feiyue had a beautiful flush on her cheeks, "Don''t talk rubbish at this time¡­"

    She shyly averted her eyes away from Yuan Ji but she was suddenly gasping, "The Five Elements Profound Mirror has a crack."

    Even Xue Qianxue was gasping, "This is a most wondrous celestial treasure and we have almost destroyed it. We should not be using it anymore lest we destroy it. It will mend by itself over time¡­"

    Yuan Ji took the Five Elements Profound Mirror with a soft chuckle, "Unfortunately we are going to use it for the veryst time."

    Then he sighed heavily as he looked at the next chain of purple lightning that was twice as powerful as the earlier st. "This is thest tribtion lightning. If we can survive this one then the lightning tribtion will be over for us. Therefore we are going to throw everything that we got for our life and death tribtion."

    Then he turned to look at the Heaven Smiting Cauldron with a light frown, "We haven''t use this profound treasure it and it is already cracking?! What is use of this profound treasure again? I can''t remember."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "That is because I haven''t introduced it to everyone earlier. This is a most useful profound treasure actually. It had helped to ovee my lightning tribtion thest time. The spiritual root of this Heaven Smiting Cauldron is able to extend into the earth. I would say that 30% of the shockwaves that we had experienced earlier was absorbed by the spiritual root of the Heaven Smiting Cauldron. If not, the destruction of the vicinity will be much greater and even the grave¡­that we are protecting will also be destroyed."

    Yuan Ji gasped. It was no wonder that they would be able to recover so quickly from the lightning shockwaves and was not paralyzed for too long. He had thought it was because he had a strong heart¡­

    "Haha. I see."

    They had a short five minutes to quickly recover as much of their profound strength as possible.

    Soon the final purple lightning tribtion was arcing across the heavens like a gigantic long purple serpent that was hundreds of miles long. This purple lightning was ten times as long and maybe even ten times as powerful as thest lightning strike!

    This final lightning was absolutely terrifying!

    At this point, Yuan Ji had suddenly remembered what Hua Wuwu had told him before when he had survived a golden tribtion lightning.

    "It is only a six-stage golden lightning and only just one golden lightning. It is nothing to be proud of. Our old master had survived through the nine-stage purple lightning. Now that is a feat that is worth praising."

    It was no wonder that Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had told him that he would never be able to defeat their Old Master. It was because he cannot imagine how formidable their Old Master really was. Now he finally realized that he was a frog in a well. Or rather a penniless frog without any cultivation resources that cannot imagine how the rich cultivators were able to have so many huge advantages over the poor cultivators that had no cultivation resources to back them up.

    He could not resist adding silently, "Although I am poor but I have married two rich consorts. So I am still the ultimate winner."

    At the same time that Yuan Ji had also thrown up the Five Elements Profound Mirror like a speeding object high up into the skies.

    There was a brilliant white re as the Five Elements Profound Mirror waspletely shattered into a million pieces and each piece was like a brilliant shooting star. A celestial grade profound treasure was destroyed on this day.

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had quickly disyed their new profound art again to meeting the furious purple serpent that was speeding to them.

    Yuan Ji raised his double halo sword as he shouted, "Let''s call our new profound art the Heaven-Defying Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had awakened two new state of divinity, the Awakened Seventh Sense and the Three-in-One Reflex.

    He could feel the profound energies, spiritual energies and soul energies that were coursing through the Heaven-Defying Light of the Coiling Dragon as he directed it to meet the onught of the furious purple serpent.

    There was an explosive white nova that exploded brilliantly when the two titanic profound energies shed against each other.

    The purple lightning tribtion was naturally more powerful.

    In that instant Xue Qianxue had quickly disyed the defensive form of the winged battle maiden to absorb the iing purple lightning and shockwaves for everyone.

    Yuan Ji was not slow either.

    He had imbued his sword with all his sword energies as he raised it protectively around Ling Feiyue who had copsed onto the ground.

    Ling Feiyue hadpletely exhausted her profound energies!

    The shockwaves that were sweeping through them were so great that it even shattered two of the legs of the Heaven Smiting Cauldron!

    When the aftermath was over, the entire heavens had quickly returned to a pristine heaven and beautiful rainbows could be seen in the horizons.

    In the aftermath, the three of them were all lying on the ground and could barely move!

    Yuan Ji had lost over 99% of his spiritual seas but he was still alive!

    So were Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue!

    Ling Feiyue knew that Yuan Ji and Xue Qianxue were still alive as her divine sense could sense their heart beats.

    She was smiling delightfully, "My silver lightning tribtion is now a purple lightning tribtion¡­I am now a great saintess of the highest tribtion¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was also giggling delightfully as she rolled in the mud, "I am a great saintess now¡­hehee¡­I need a bath¡­"

    Xiang Li was dumbfounded that Yuan Ji and the two maidens had actually ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion.

    She began to giggle to herself as she held onto her bosoms, "I think, I may be in love now..."

    Yuan Ji was the most delight. It was because he had ensured that Xiang Li, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were all alive.

    He wasughing jovially as he threw the God Emperor''s Rope high up into the sky before it dropped into the bottomless abyss below. "Haha. You didn''t kill me so you can use this rope to hang yourself now!"

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Don''t¡­"

    But it was already toote as the God Emperor''s Rope was thrown away by Yuan Ji.

    "What is it?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    "This rope is actually a heaven-step profound treasure that can anchor our soul sea. It is a good profound treasure that can prevent death for a few minutes¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Why didn''t you say so earlier¡­"

    Unknown to them, a beautiful peerless immortal goddess was quietly watching them from afar. She was trembling with rage and shock at the same time. Rage because a man had thrown her out of her crystal coffin earlier and shock because they had actually survived the lightning tribtion that was created by her.

    "This is not possible at all¡­this is a purple tribtion lightning¡­even an immortal would not dare to disregard the purple tribtion lightning¡­"

 Chapter 92 The Abyssal Null Goddess

    A beautiful peerless goddess with long silver hair, partially bundled into braids was quietly observing Yuan Ji as he was digging a grave.

    "This despicable celestial cultivator is actually a grave robber. It is no wonder he has dared to desecrate my resting ce."

    The Immortal title of this beautiful peerless goddess was the Abyssal Null Goddess and she was a Deste Immortal. She was a high immortal of the Null Citadel, one of the twelve most powerful Citadels in the Ancient Fortress City of the Deste Immortals.

    Therefore she had an exalted position among the ranks of the Deste Immortals.

    And yet she was thrown away like a heap of garbage by a lowly cultivator who did not know of her exalted status.

    For thousands of years she had slept in the crystal coffin after receiving a life threatening grievous injury in battle against the Righteous Immortals. In that battle, she had burned up all her spiritual seas in ast pitch effort to contest with the Great Goddess Celestial Alice but to no avail. In the end, she had thought that she would surely perish.

    Luckily for her, her broken golden body was retrieved by the deste immortals of her Null Citadel and ced in a crystal coffin.

    The crystal coffin that she had slept in was a profound treasure that could restore her body. However there was one problem though. Even though her golden body could recover with the passage of time but her profound strength could not.

    That was why there was a garden of rare spirit nts near her crystal coffin that could nourish her vital deste strength.

    Perhaps she had been in slumber for such a long time that she could no longer wake up. It was not until a rowdy celestial cultivator had suddenly picked her sanctify body up and threw it to one side.

    Then she was rudely awakened and rightfully annoyed.

    If she had her profound strength, she would surely kill him without a second thought.

    Although she was still weak now but she had plenty of immortal resources under her sleeves. She had a heaven-defying scroll that could invoke the Lightning Tribtion prematurely for her hateful target.

    Usually when a cultivator was about to undergo a Lightning Tribtion, they would have three months of foreboding to prepare themselves.

    But not in this case if she had used her Lightning Tribtion Immortal Scroll; her target would only have one hour of preparation time once she had burnt the Lightning Tribtion Immortal Scroll with whatever little profound strength that she could muster.

    There was however a small print in the Lightning Tribtion Immortal Scroll that warned her that should the target survives the Lightning Tribtion then she would not be able to kill him again. It was not just a drawback but there would be a blood price for invoking the Lightning Tribtion prematurely.

    As a matter of fact, if she failed to kill him, it was not a matter of unable to kill him but she had to subject herself to his will in the future.

    "The Silver Lightning Tribtion has a mortality rate of 90%. If the cultivator is stronger then it will be changed to a Golden Lightning Tribtion which has less than 10% survival rate."

    Imagine her delight when she saw that that the Silver Tribtion Lightning had transformed into a Golden Tribtion Lightning.

    "This unruly cultivator is going to be dead for sure."

    Imagine her further delight when the Golden Tribtion Lightning had transformed into a Purple Tribtion Lightning that even the immortals had feared for its terrifying profound power.<sub> </sub>

    "He is definitely going to be dead for sure!" The haughty Abyssal Null Goddess was soon smiling. "You won''t even know who the one that has really killed you and yourpanions. This goddess here is of course the real culprit. I should thank you for reviving me though and this is how I reward you."

    In order to witness the death of this unruly celestial cultivator, she had hidden herself as they battled the Purple Lightning Tribtion.

    "Hehe. Please don''t disappoint me and die in your very first Purple Lightning Tribtion. This will be too cheap for you. I want you to suffer dejection, disappointment, fear, anguish and heartbreak before you vaporized."

    "They are taking the Lightning Tribtion together? Don''t they know that the power of the Lightning Tribtion will only increase with the presence of more people? Are they foolish or what? I have only wanted to kill that unruly man but since these two maidens are also with him then they are equally guilty in their act of desecration of my tomb as well. Therefore it is your bad karma that all three of you will die together¡­"

    "What?! They have all survived through the first Lightning Tribtion¡­"

    "This is all luck¡­their profound strength is rather disappointing so I doubt these weaklings would actually survive until the third Purple Lightning Tribtion¡­"

    "What?! They havepletely neutralized the second Purple Lightning Tribtion¡­"

    "The Purple Lightning Tribtion is chaining together. The third Purple Lightning Tribtion will have the profound power of two purple lightning. They are dead for sure."

    "They have actually made through the double profound power of the Purple Lightning Tribtion¡­."

    "The fourth and final Purple Lightning Tribtion will have the profound power of five purple lightning. Even I will vaporize in the face of such raw terrifying profound power. These lowly celestial cultivators will never be able to survive it. Your luck has run out now¡­"

    "They survive¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    "How is it possible?"

    Her eyes had turned moistly and she was panicking now.

    "A proud and haughty goddess like me will be subjected to his will in the future?! He is but a lowly celestial cultivator¡­"

    All of a sudden she had an idea as she smirked coldly as she took out a celestial grade divine sword. "Why don''t I sow discord with them? They will surely fight over a celestial grade divine sword. Even if they are friends, they will surely betray one another over a celestial sword. The other two maidens seem to be stronger than him and they can finish him off easily."

    As she took out her celestial sword, she chuckled. "This celestial sword is bonded to me. When they are all dead or injured, I can retrieve it back to my side without any efforts."

    *Note that celestial grade divine sword is also known as celestial sword. A saint grade divine sword can also be known as a saint sword.

 Chapter 93 Im Now A Middle-Tier Saint!

    In the meantime Yuan Ji could feel that the spiritual boundary of his soul sea was now expanding. There was an intense surge of pure spiritual force that was now being exuded from within him and it was filling his surroundings with multiple warm spiritual glows.

    This was an indication that his current realm level had improved to the next small boundary!

    He was not the only one experiencing it.

    Xue Qianxue was also exuding a warm spiritual glow and it was an indication that she was now an upper tier seventh realm level!

    "Ji Yuan, I am a great saintess now¡­" Xue Qianxue was so delighted that she was giggling softly. "Thank you everyone. I really didn''t really expect this at all."

    At this moment, Yuan Ji was unable to hear her. He was in deep meditation in his soul sea now.

    The Lightning Tribtion that he had just experienced was now replenishing his dry soul sea which was the size of a smallke. After a while his soul sea had be a crystal clearke and it was now boiling furiously.

    The water in theke was actually spiritual force that was condensed into liquid form. When cultivators cultivated, they drew upon the spiritual force in the air to condense it into liquid spiritual force which form the soul sea of the cultivator''s inner cultivation sea.

    Every time a cultivator has a major realm change, the soul sea will bepletely used up to expand upon the spiritual boundary of the soul sea. When the spiritual boundary has expanded, so will the size of the soul sea be expanded as well.

    When Yuan Ji was at the sixth realm level, his soul sea was a small reservoir. When he had be a seventh realm saint after his breakthrough, his small reservoir had be a bigke. Such a big emptyke would require him a lot of time to cultivate the spiritual force to fill his soul sea. If he was rich enough to afford tons of profound pills and high grade spirit stones then it would be a lot easier for him.

    Right now Yuan Ji could feel that his soul sea was now expanding and he was now a middle-tier saint.

    He was quite astonished that he was actually a middle-tier saint now; it is because it is not unusual for saint level cultivators to remain an initial saint for decades and even centuries without any breakthrough.

    One must know that each cultivation realm has an initial, middle and upper stage. Each stage has a half-step, mortal, earth, heaven and peak stage.

    Yuan Ji had only just reached the initial mortal stage, having just solidifying his soul sea not long ago. The waters in hiske were only half-full and not even at its brim. Only when he had reached the peak stage will the waters in hiske be overflowing and he can then hope for the next breakthrough. However this process may take many, many years of cultivation.

    But for Yuan Ji, his Lightning Tribtion hade too early and even though the spiritual sea of his soul sea was actually not ready to elevate him for any breakthrough.

    Because he had ovee the Lightning Tribtion, the profound power of the Lightning Tribtion was now expanding his spiritual boundary for him.

    Although there are seven realm levels and each realm have three grades but the reality is that the seventh realm level actually have only two; the initial and the middle. It is because the middle grade is the limit of cultivation for the cultivators. If they wish to advance then they have to first ovee the Lightning Tribtion and borrow the profound power of the Lightning Tribtion to attain to the upper sacred saint level.

    Therefore Yuan Ji had borrowed the profound power of the Lightning Tribtion and had elevated himself.

    And because Yuan Ji had already taken his Lightning Tribtion, his spiritual boundary will not be restricted to the middle peak saint level and in the future, he can breakthrough to the upper saint level without a need to face the Lightning Tribtion again.

    But he was soon muttering to himself and to Xiang Li as he stared at his empty soul sea, "I am back to a half-step again. To be precise, a middle half-step saint...useless saint with 1% of my spiritual sea intact." He had used up 99% of his soul sea to fight the Lightning Tribtion.

    "When I hadpleted my breakthrough from the sixth realm level to the seventh realm, I still got 30% of soul sea intact. It is enough for me to kill any fourth realm cultivators and with luck, even a sixth realm cultivator."

    "With my duel in a month''s time, how am I supposed to fight the Old Master if I am not in my peak condition? I need myself to be in the peak condition because of my disparity with the Old Master. I don''t want Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue to be his ves. s¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled shyly, "You can try to dual cultivate with Maiden Qianxue every day. It may help. After all, her Sacred Maiden Profound Art makes her the best dual cultivation partner."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, quick!" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were calling to him as they appeared next to him.

    Yuan Ji opened his eyes and looked curiously at them, "What is it?"

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were pointing at the hundreds of high grade spirit stones that were floating around them.

    "We need to absorb the spiritual force in these high grade spirit stones. There is only a small window of time for us to absorb the spiritual force in these spirit stones. Once our new spiritual boundary has solidified, we will no longer be able to use the high grade spiritual stones anymore. Profound pills are useless to us because we have taken too many earlier." Xue Qianxue urged him with a lovely smile.

    "Ji Yuan, don''t be shy. You can use ours¡­" Ling Feiyue was smiling shyly to him.

    Yuan Ji was frowning. "Do you know how much one high grade spirit stone cost? And how many high grade spirit stone need to be consumed for it to be of use?"

    Only high grade spirit stone can be used to replenish a cultivator''s soul sea during and after a breakthrough.

    A single high grade spirit stone can only replenish 0.3% of Yuan Ji''s soul sea. Each additional use will reduce the effectiveness of the replenishment by 1/3. It will require not 300 high grade spirit stones but 30 000 high grade spirit stones to fully replenish Yuan Ji''s soul sea!

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily as he drawn upon the spiritual force of the high grade spirit stone and draining itpletely, turning it into a low grade spirit stone. If he was not draining the high grade spirit stone, a single high grade spirit stone would be enough to provide him with a rich source of spiritual force for cultivation for an entire month. But then no one would do that because this was too wasteful.

    Well, maybe not ''no one'' because there were two cultivators that were in front of Yuan Ji that would be this wasteful.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly startled that Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were throwing literally thousands of high grade spirit stones around them and not the hundreds that he was expecting.

    Soon, they had thrown tens of thousands of high grade spirit stones.

    Yuan Ji''s jaws fell t onto the ground¡­

    In the next tens of minutes, they were all grabbing tens of spirit stones in their hands as they drained it dry.

    Yuan Ji took a look of guilt at them as he fully replenished his soul sea just in the nick of time as his spiritual boundary stabilized. He was now a middle mortal-step saint now, skipping the half-steppletely!

    Xue Qianxue pped her hands as sheughed, "Upper mortal-step great saintess!"

    "Upper earth-step great saintess!" Ling Feiyue was giggling delightfully.

    All in all, they had used over a hundred thousand high grade spirit stones!

    As Yuan Ji looked at the drained spirit stones that were scattered around him, there was a tiny tear in his eyes. "So much wealth¡­wasted¡­we have just eaten several gold mines¡­"

    He began to mutter silently, "My two consorts are too high maintenance. I can''t afford to support them with my puny ie¡­"

    But he was soon cursing them silently, "These rich cultivators are all wastrels. They can''t even be bothered to cultivate back their profound strength after a small breakthrough. How can they be sozy? It is only a year or two time of short cultivation..."

    Using high grade spiritual stones are only possible for small breakthroughs and not for major realm breakthrough. For realm breakthrough, the high grade spirit stones can only provide only a third of the usual spiritual force and each additional high grade spirit stone will reduce the effectiveness of the replenishment by ? and there was a cap of 70% of the soul sea.

    Therefore even the very rich cultivators will still need to solidify their soul sea with several months of cultivation but it will not be as long as the poor cultivators.

    Xue Qianxue gasped out softly, "Sister Yue, your sister here is a little poor now. After all, I am no longer the Sacred Maiden."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Don''t worry, you still have me!"

    Yuan Ji said sarcastically, "You can depend on me. I am the sect master of the Emperor Hall Sect and I have a rich treasury." A rich treasury of mostly useless things, he purposely neglected to mention it.

    Xue Qianxue held onto Yuan Ji''s hand, "My lord is so good to me. In the future, my livelihood will depend on you."

    "Haha. Sure. Leave everything to me." Yuan Jiughed bitterly.

    "Ji Yuan, why didn''t you take out any high grade spirit stones earlier if you are so rich?" Ling Feiyue asked him curiously.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "That is because¡­erm¡­I saving it for a rainy day¡­" He muttered almost incoherently.

    All of a sudden a shrieking sound was heard from the heavens above as a profound light appeared above them and quickly pierced the ground in front of them like a brilliantnce.

    When the white animus of the brilliantnce had vanished, they would see that it was actually a celestial sword!

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned as he probed the celestial sword several times with his divine sense. "It is really a celestial sword and it had dropped for no apparent reason from the heavens."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were also startled as they exchanged looks with each other. How was it possible for a celestial sword to drop just like this?

    There was only one known celestial sword that was said to exist and that belonged to the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Celestial sword was extremely rare and was a powerful profound weapon with unimagined strength.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji was however d that this celestial sword had dropped all out of the blue. It was because this celestial sword had just saved him from answering an awkward question.

    "Is this a reward for us for oveing the Lightning Tribtion?" Xue Qianxue asked curiously.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "I don''t think so. We are not in a trial."

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Maybe it is because we may be the only ones that manage to survive a Purple Lightning Tribtion. Maybe the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce got his celestial sword in this way."

    "Mmm, maybe¡­" Ling Feiyue was also confused.

    It was because none of them had ever experienced such a strange urrence before!

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "Since it has dropped from the heavens then finder the keeper. Why don''t we give it to Ji Yuan? He needs a good sword for his uing duel."

    "I agree with that." Ling Feiyue smiled.

    "Why don''t you want the celestial sword?" Yuan Ji asked them with a weak smile. "Everyone wants it."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Because you are our lord now! Without your lightning tribtion, I don''t even know when I can chance my Lightning Tribtion and I am a little afraid of it if it were toe. But today, I have not only ovee it but have also advanced to a great saintess. I am already very content!"

    "Same here!" Ling Feiyue smiled delightfully. "My Silver Lightning Tribtion has been upgraded to a Purple Lightning Tribtion. Moreover I have also a little breakthrough. Ji Yuan, why don''t you listen to us and take it?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he said, "This is too suspicious. Why don''t I ask Xiang Li to take a look first?"

    Xiang Li had naturally heard him because she was still lingering in his soul sea. She too, had seen the celestial sword when it hadnded.

    Therefore she had appeared quickly in front of them, "This celestial sword seems to have an owner already. But if you really want this celestial sword then I can remove the owner''s profound signature for you."

    <o>,m Yuan Ji was startled, "You can actually remove profound signatures? Will it be difficult? This is after all a celestial sword."</o>

    Xiang Li giggled as she dered proudly, "The only skill I have is wiping profound signatures. No matter how powerful the owner is or the creator of the profound signature is, it is a piece of cake for me. In fact, I can wipe it clean with just a snap of my fingers."

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were all stunned by her. It was because it was not thought possible to remove profound signatures from a divine sword. Moreover divine swords had sentient and could resist the attempt.

    Xiang Li of course was not boasting. It was because her daily job in the Lotus Sword Mansion was to wipe clean the profound signatures of the treasures of cultivators and took it for herself. Even divine swords were not spared from her merciless recycling.

    Yuan Ji heaved a deep sigh as he looked at the reflection of his divine sword, "Actually I don''t want to use any other divine swords even if it is a celestial grade divine sword. The name of this divine sword is Resonate Peak and it is a hundred year pledge that is given to me by Jiajia. Moreover you know that I have a perfect harmony with this divine sword. If I were to use a celestial sword, yes, it will be powerful but I won''t be able to handle it as expertly as this divine sword. Therefore this divine sword is good enough for me."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I can not only wipe the profound signature off this celestial sword for your own use but I can also degrade it to enhance your divine sword. However it won''t be a full celestial sword but a half-step celestial sword. Do you want to do it?"

    Yuan Ji was startled, "You can do something like this? Celestial swords are supposed to be indestructible."

    Even a half-step celestial sword was more powerful than a full step celestial sword because of the perfect harmony that Yuan Ji had. In fact, it could even be considered as a full step celestial sword in his hands if his own heaven-step divine sword could be upgrade to a half-step celestial sword.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were astonished as they blinked their eyes. Xiang Li''s ability was too OP!

    Yuan Jiughed heartily, "Then what are you waiting for? Will it take long¡­"

    With a wave of Xiang Li''s fingers, the light of the celestial sword had suddenly turned dull and its spiritual animus was all drained into the Resonate Peak.

    In just a blink of an eye, the artefact core of the Resonate Peak had be a half-step celestial grade core!

    In short, it was now a half-step celestial sword!

    Yuan Ji was stunned. He had barely finished speaking and it was all aplished by Xiang Li with a wave of her fingers. "What are you Xiang Li? You are a freak!"

    Xiang Liughed heartily as she patted her belly, "Delicious sword¡­"

    There was an auspicious light that lit from the heavens as itnded upon Yuan Ji''s divine sword. Whenever a celestial sword was created, an auspicious omen could be seen.

    Yuan Ji lifted his divine sword high up and said proudly, "Dirty Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, this time you are dead." At the same time he muttered silently. "So are you, Little Princess!"

    -

    -

    -

    Nearby, the Abyssal Null Goddess coughed out a bout of golden blood when her link with her celestial sword was severed!

    She was inplete disbelief!

    They did not even fight over the celestial sword but actually had the profound ability to wipe out the link with her celestial sword!

    This was something that was clearly impossible!

    Not only did she lose her celestial sword but she had also suffer a severe bacsh!

    That was not all. Her celestial sword was even destroyed on the spot!

    Note: Actually if the Abyssal Null Goddess was near her celestial sword, it would be impossible for Xiang Li destroy it but without the profound might of the owner to safeguard her celestial sword and the distance between owner and the celestial grade divine sword was so vast, Xiang Li in this case was like the ultimate hacker. It was because Xiang Li was unable to affect anything with life force energies on it. This was a restriction to her godly powers.

    Her divine sense had suddenly spotted a beautiful spirit entity that was wearing revealing clothing, "This spirit entity is a saint level immortal spirit¡­why is she with him¡­"

    In the Immortal and Deste Realms, immortal spirits can often be found inhabiting the immortal profound treasures. These immortal spirits also have their own hierarchy and are ranked mortal, earth, heaven, celestial and saint. Saint level immortal spirits are the rarest and the most powerful.

    With a saint level immortal spirit, it is possible to refine the most powerful profound treasures.

    "This is clearly impossible¡­"

    "If I have one then I may refine her to return to the Immortal Realm and may even restore to my peak¡­"

    But that was not her main concern now as she touched her neck.

    It was because there was a profound cor that had formed around her neck. This was actually a ve cor that could only be seen by her ''master'' and the other immortals. This was formed when she had that suffer a bacsh caused for invoking the Lightning Tribtion.

    And of course there may be some powerful celestial cultivators that had superb divine sense that was on par with an immortal that could see this ve cor but that was only in very extreme cases.

    This almost invisible cor was her ultimate humiliation!

    She had to seek her ''new master'' and be subservient to him or else her soul sea would be damaged and she may even lose her immortal body.

    All of a sudden she had an idea, "Since this immortal spirit can remove the link with my celestial sword, maybe she can also remove this ve cor¡­"

    She was actually unsure because she had little experiences dealing with immortal spirits and did not know their exact range of unique abilities.

    With a heavy sigh, "I can''t allow myself to fall into the hands of this unruly man. With my peerless allure, he will surely defile me and my humiliations will be endless."

    All of a sudden she had another idea as she took out a precious scroll, the Spirit Beast Transformation Scroll.

    She was smiling bitterly. "In the end, I have to transform myself into a lowly animal to preserve my dignity."

    She fingered her burning ve cor before finally putting down the stone that was in her heart. "This is better than being vited by him¡­"

    With mncholy sighs, she stripped herself naked before using the scroll to transform herself into a beautiful silver fox.

    This beautiful silver fox had deep golden eyes with purple rings and a long beautiful fur tail that had eight other protruding smaller tails.

    "This goddess here will find a way to kill this unruly master! Bai Qianfeng, why are you so down on your luck?"

 Chapter 94 The Nine-Tail Silver Fox

    When Yuan Ji and his group had returned to the chamber where the crystal coffin was, they could not find the body of the beautiful peerless goddess that Yuan Ji had thrown out earlier.

    "Where is the body?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Xue Qianxue was quite startled, "The corpse is able to move by itself? It has turned into a zombie?"

    Yuan Jiughed heartily, "It has probably been turned into dust after being exposed into the elements. This sort of things happens quite frequently. It is nothing to be frightened about."

    "How did you know?" Xue Qianxue took a curious look at him.

    "Well, I had opened quite a few coffins in the past." Yuan Jiughed.

    "You did what?" Ling Feiyue was startled. "You are a tomb robber?!"

    "Erm, I can exin..." Yuan Ji was stammering. "I was only apanying some friends. There are many tombs around the Five Heavens Peaks¡­"

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue raised her gentle voice to say seriously. "Please don''t do this sort of things anymore. You are not tomb robber but a respected Sword Saint and a sect master."

    Xue Qianxue was also looking with an annoyed look at him. "Yes, please don''t."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Actually I didn''t do it for many centuries already. Don''t look at me like this. You all know that I was in seclusion for a hundred years, right? Therefore you also know that I didn''t do anything like this for a long time¡­"

    "And what are we doing here now?" Xue Qianxue sighed.

    Ling Feiyue added unhappily, "You even open the lids of the crystal coffin like an expert and carelessly thrown a body out. This is too disrespectful to the dead."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I didn''t go tomb raiding. The tombes to me¡­" Yuan Ji muttered a weak protest.

    But silently he wasmenting miserably. "All the celestial ns in the Five Heavens Peaks frequently go tomb raiding to solve their sect''s finances. My old master was the one that had taught me how to do it¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji had just sealed the transparent crystal coffin. He had a solemn look as he sighed regretfully at the body of his beloved consort Saintess Yuxian.

    Behind him were Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    "Please rest in peace. I wille back often to see you."

    All of a sudden a nine-tail silver fox had suddenly appeared at the entrance, startling everyone.

    Yuan Ji had immediately disyed his divine sword as he stared fiercely at it. "How dare this beast disturb the final resting ce of my Consort Yuxian! Let me skin this beast and use its silver fur to make a cloak for Yuxian!"

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    "Wait Ji Yuan!" Xue Qianxue interrupted. "This nine-tail silver fox may be a rare spirit beast and not a deste beast."

    Yuan Ji frowned, "It doesn''t look like a spirit beast to me. Its deste aura is stronger than its spiritual aura. How can this thing be a spirit beast?"

    Ling Feiyue was muttering, "Qianxue. Ji Yuan is right. This nine-tail silver fox seems to be more like a deste beast than a spirit beast."

    "But ording to the celestial books, nine-tail silver fox is a spirit beast and it can even evolved into a divine beast." Xue Qianxue said with a chuckle. "Or maybe this poor thing has been adopted by a deste beast or has been cultivating too near to the deste mists. Maybe that is why."

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders, "I still think that it is a better idea to skin it. Do you know that the fur of a silver fox is worth 500 high grade spirit stones? And that is only for a one-tail silver fox. This is a nine-tail silver fox and it may worth 5000 high grade spirit stones or more."

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was filled with shock and fear. She had never expected that this unruly and uncultured celestial cultivator would actually be trying to skin her. She could not believe that today she would be losing her life!

    Now she had regretted transforming into a spirit beast¡­

    A mighty goddess with her lofty status was now treated like amon beast to be ughtered. This was a most humiliating fate!

    And she was suddenly shrinking with fear and was weeping on the spot.

    When Yuan Ji saw that the nine-tail silver fox was whimpering and had copsed on the ground, his heart softened a little. Then he spotted a cor around the neck of the nine-tail silver fox. "Weird, why is there a cor around its neck? It is tamed by someone?"

    "What cor?" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue asked at the same time curiously. They really did not see any cor.

    "It is a ve cor!" Xiang Li had suddenly appeared and she was giggling.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was suddenly delighted when she saw Xiang Li. Maybe this immortal spirit would be able to get rid of this ve cor for her. So she purposely whimpered even louder and used her paw to point at her ve cor, pretending that this ve cor was giving her extreme pain.<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li opened the divine sense of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, allowing them to see the ve cor.

    "There is really a cor around this poor nine-tail silver fox''s neck¡­" The two maidens were astonished.

    "A ve cor?" Yuan Ji was perplexed. "What is it used for?"

    Naturally he did not know because a ve cor was not from the Celestial Realm. Nor did Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue have heard of it before.

    Everyone was now looking at Xiang Li for an answer.

    Xiang Li was extremely delighted that everyone was showering her with attention now. "Well, a ve cor will make a spirit beast be a good and obedient spirit beast. Therefore it is a good thing."

    "Oh. Hahaha." Yuan Jiughed. "So it means that this spirit beast is actually a friendly spirit beast?"

    "That is right!" Xiang Li dered proudly.

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    The nine-tail silver fox: ¡­

    "What crap is this immortal spirit talking about?!" The Abyssal Null Goddess was stunned. "Remove my ve cor¡­what friendly spirit beast?!"

    She did not know that Xiang Li knowledge of the ve cor was limited and that Xiang Li was only trying to impress everyone with her ''extensive'' knowledge.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin, "Oh well. Having a cor means that this nine-tail silver fox has an owner and the owner is me. This is also for the nine-tail silver fox''s protection. I guess that I will keep this nine-tail silver fox until it has evolved into a divine beast. It may be worth a lot more when it has be a divine beast."

    The nine-tail silver fox aka the Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Yuan Jiughed as he approached the nine-tail silver fox cautiously. "Xiang Li, are you sure this thing won''t bite me?"

    "Try it." Xiang Li giggled but secretly she was not sure. But there was no way Yuan Ji would be killed by it because this nine-tail silver fox was quite small and moreover Yuan Ji was a saint with superb regeneration abilities.

    Yuan Ji had lifted the nine-tail silver fox up with both his hands, "Woot. It really didn''t bite me. Haha."

    "Told you so!" Xiang Li said proudly.

    "Xiang Li, you are so knowledgeable." Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue praised her.

    "Of course I am. Hehe. If you have any questions in the future, just ask me freely! I am always avable!" Xiang Li winked at the two maidens.

    Yuan Ji had suddenly lifted the nine-tail silver high up by its two fore paws as he stared below its belly, "This nine-tail silver fox is actually a female. Haha¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess waspletely stunned and felt like digging a deep hole into the ground and she was weeping with great embarrassment. "Don''t look, you¡­monster¡­"

    "Alright, I shall call you Xiaobai and you shall be my spirit beast." Yuan Ji dered loudly.

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "I am so happy that our lord got a spirit beast now. Still, we should go to the nearest Spirit Beast Guild to create a contract between the two of you. This is to ensure that Xiaobai won''t attack you or anyone without yourmands in the future."

    "Alright. Haha." Yuan Ji replied.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess shook her head furiously. I don''t want to be anyone''s spirit beast. You lowly celestials should all be voided out!

    "Xiaobai, I am Yuan Ji. These two maidens are my consorts. They are Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue. And this is Xiang Li my spirit entity. Remember, you must not attack them and you must also listen to them, alright?"

    Although the nine-tail silver fox was shaking furiously in protest but she found herself obeying the wishes of her master. What Yuan Ji wanted her to do, she could not disobey his will at all and she must obey all hismands!

    ? Therefore she could only respond by nodding her head.

    "Waa, Xiaobai is really so intelligent. She even knows how to nod her head." Yuan Ji was truly impressed.

    "Let me y with Xiaobai!" Xue Qianxue chuckled.

    "Alright. Here you go." Yuan Ji had thrown the nine-tail silver fox to her.

    Xue Qianxue was startled. "Ji Yuan, please don''t do that. You will frighten Xiaobai¡­"

    Even Ling Feiyue was saying, "This is too mean. Can you be more considerate in the future?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I will keep that in mind¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was now weeping in her heart. A lofty immortal goddess like her was now being toy around by the lowly celestial cultivators. Now she hadpletely regretted her decision to turn into a spirit beast¡­

    "Xiaobai, from now onward, you must love us like a family. When I am in trouble, I expect you to do your best to protect us." Yuan Ji said to her. "From now onward, you shall sleep with me. This is more cozy this way. I have never hugged such a pricey silver fur before. Haha."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Love him as his family, protect him with all her best and sleep with him¡­

    This was her master''smands to her.

 Chapter 95 Tomb Raiding

    Yuan Ji said to Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, "We have lost our flying mount now. If we stay here to cultivate then we may not be able to reach the Lofty World End Peak on time. Also, I will like to return to the Emperor Hall Sect first."

    The two maidens had no issue with this decision.

    However Xue Qianxue said, "Ji Yuan, can we go to the Eon Firmament Mountains first? Let''s pay a visit to Diviner Mo Ming first alright?"

    Yuan Ji had heard of Diviner Mo Ming before. He was supposed to be a great celestial that was closest to heavens'' secrets and was also a great saint. Diviner and Great Saint Mo Ming was extremely ancient and he secluded himself at the Eon Firmament Mountains.

    Over the years, there were many that tried to visit him to ask about the heavens'' secret and he had turned many away. The reason why there were so many celestials that were always visiting him was because his divination was extremely urate and hence he was also called Diviner Mo Ming.

    There were two conditions before one could meet him. One was that they must have the ''fate'' and the other one was that they must be able to pay a hefty price in cultivation resources.

    "I have heard of his renown too¡­" Ling Feiyue muttered. "It is really hard to request an audience with him. He doesn''t just see anyone."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Feiyue is right. And why should we look for him?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled before she said firmly, "He will definitely see me. Ji Yuan, I will like to enquiry him about the oue of your duel. If it is a bad oue, we can avoid itpletely. Do you get me?"

    "I won''t back off from my duel. It is against my code of martial honor." Yuan Ji replied firmly.

    Xue Qianxue looked extremely disappointed and her adorable eyes show it. She was immediately mncholy and her eyes had turned moist.

    Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh after he had seen her expression.

    "But since it is my dear Qianxue''s wish, we will pay him a visit anyway. But he may not want to see us."

    Xue Qianxue was immediately delighted and her smiles were like the warm sun, "As long as we are at the Eon Firmament Mountains, I have my way of forcing him to see us!"

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders when he had heard her. He muttered, "You can''t force people to do things against their will¡­"

    When he had said that, the nine-tail silver fox at his side was whimpering and nodding. You are so right, you can''t force people to do things against their will! The Abyssal Null Goddess was weeping and agreeing with his statement.

    "Look! Even Xiaobai agrees with me!" Xue Qianxue had misunderstood Xiaobai''s whimpering as an disagreement with Yuan Ji and she was absolutely delighted.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Alright, alright. We try your way first." Yuan Ji heaved a soft sigh.

    -

    -

    -

    For the next few days Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue spent their time to loot the tomb of its cultivation treasures. The most valuable cultivation treasures were of course the valuable spirit nts and they had found many precious celestial herbs.

    Actually the Abyssal Null Goddess had no idea who had nted the spirit herbs to aid her recovery. She did not care much for these spirit herbs as the Immortal Realm was rich with these spirit nts. It was only in the Celestial Realm that these spirit nts were only considered to be rare.

    They had also found a chamber that had many profound pills.

    Yuan Ji was delighted as he grabbed as many profound pills as he found.

    Even Xiaobai was also swallowing as many profound pills as she could.

    "Why are Ji Yuan and Xiaobai grabbing only the cheap profound pills that are used for ''regaining'' profound strength but not the valuable profound pills that are used for ''gaining'' profound strength?" The two maidens were astonished by their bizarre behavior.

    The ''gaining'' profound pills were often called cultivation profound pills while the ''regaining'' profound pills were often called replenishing profound pills.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was trying to refill her empty soul sea and needless to say, her intentions were too obvious; she needed to consume these regaining profound pills to fill the empty ocean of her soul sea.

    As she fought with Yuan Ji for the ''regaining'' profound pills, she was cursing him silently. "How shameless of you to fight with me over these profound pills! Your inner cultivation sea is only a smallke and is already full. Even ten of your punyke can''t fill in my empty ocean!"

    "I''m already a middle-tier saint. I can cultivate as slowly as I like. But these regaining profound pills are useful to me when I am in a fight or taking the trials." Yuan Ji exined when he noticed the astonished looks that were given to him by the two maidens.

    Then he quickly turned to Xiaobai as he rebuked her, "Hey! Surrender to me all the profound pills that are in your mouth. Cough it back!"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess reluctantly threw all the profound pills that were in her mouth out. "Yes master¡­" She could only weep silently as she surrendered all the profound pills that she had looted out of her spatial storage which was disguised as her cute foxy mouth.

    "Good girl!" Yuan Ji grinned as he patted her head. "You should be taking the profound pills that can gain you actual profound strength. The sooner your spiritual boundary can expand, the faster you can evolve into a divine beast and the faster that I can sell you away."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    I am a lofty immortal goddess! These profound pills had little effect on my superior spiritual boundary. Instead I need these replenishing profound pills. She protested silently¡­

    "Look at Ji Yuan and Xiaobai. They are getting along so well. They even got the strange weird habit of liking the cheaper profound pills." Xue Qianxue chuckled as she said to Ling Feiyue.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue felt that it was strange because they were trained to cultivate as fast as possible. As a matter of fact, they were actually younger than Yuan Ji in real age.

    But to Yuan Ji, although cultivation profound pills were good but it was only good at the lower realm levels. It only saved him a little of the cultivation time and these rich cultivators were like eating gold mines every month.

    "Look sister at what I have found." Ling Feiyue eximed with great delight. "These red pills are called the Blood Grapes Divine Pills and are fifth rank profound pills. Take one every month and our profound strength will grow. Here six for you and six for me."

    Yuan Ji grumbled when he had heard them, "These pills only have a minute effect on your inner cultivation sea. It is like adding a few drops of spiritual force only. You may as well sell it for thousands of high grade spirit stones or give it to the lower realm cultivators. It is much more useful to them. Only the first Blood Grapes Divine Pill has the most effect. What is the point of taking one every month."

    Yuan Ji was actually not wrong in his remarks.

    "You want some?" Ling Feiyue asked him.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly as he said shamelessly, "Give me two of these."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "I thought you didn''t want and yet you are asking for two." She tossed him two of the Blood Grapes Divine Pills.

    Yuan Ji quickly caught hold of it and kept it inside his spatial ring. "I am keeping it for Yan''Er and Chengxi. With this fifth rank profound pill, Yan''Er may finally have the chance to be a fifth realm golden celestial. And it is good for Chengxi too."

    He sighed softly as he was already thinking of Yan''Er and Chengxi.

    "Qianxue, Feiyue¡­" He said solemnly and heaved a deep sigh. "There is something that I need to tell you."

    The two maidens immediately stopped what they were doing when they saw that Yuan Ji had suddenly be very solemn and he seemed to be trying to say something solemn to them.

    "Yes?"

    Yuan Ji sighed again, "I know that the two of you have been calling me Ji Yuan. But can you call me Yuan Ji in the future?"

    "But you are Ji Yuan¡­" the two maidens muttered, not understanding.

    "Especially when we have returned to the Emperor Hall Sect. It is because I didn''t tell Yan''Er and Chengxi who I am yet." Yuan Ji sighed even more deeply. He had a look of guilt and he was saddened that he had been lying to them.

    "Huh? They didn''t know that you are Ji Yuan?" Xue Qianxue gasped softly.

    Even Ling Feiyue was gasping, "Howe you have never told them?!"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I actually have no intention of telling anyone that I am actually Ji Yuan after I have lost my beautiful beard. This is actually a long story. Only Jiajia and the two of you manage to discover my identity. I hope that you can call me Yuan Ji in the future."

    "Alright¡­we will do it...if they do not know who you are, how did you end up with them?"

    "I have bimbo Jiajia to thanks for." Yuan Ji smiled bitterly.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Ji Yuan ¨C I mean Yuan Ji, you shouldn''t be calling Jiajia a bimbo and it is rude too. She is actually smarter than you think she is."

    "Her intelligence is definitely above us and she is a great saintess too." Xue Qianxue pointed out.

    "What? She is a great saintess?!" Yuan Ji was startled.

    "You didn''t know? Everyone knows that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is a great saintess."

    "I really didn''t know. Haha¡­" Yuan Jiughed before adding silently. "We are like from different worlds. These influential cultivators are constantly keeping tabs and are always plotting against one another. A poor cultivator like me is not in their league and can''t be bothered to know their cultivation realm."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "She is already a great saintess a hundred years ago when she had met us. We are all yed by her."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he muttered, "She is already a great saintess a hundred years ago?"

    He had a shiver when he had suddenly remembered back then that he had touched her butt because he had thought that she was only a fifth realm golden celestial. Luckily for him, his hands were still intact today. He could imagine Jiajia giving him two options, "Your life or your hands."

    "Haha." Heughed it off. "She is my future consort."

    Xue Qianxue averted her eyes, "I don''t know if I should say this or not but I think I should. Saintess Fang Zhenfei is too mysterious and her sect is not known to be involved in the affairs of the celestial fraternity. But did you remember when we have met her, she was telling us that she is on something dangerous?"

    Yuan Ji nodded slowly. He did remember that.

    But he replied firmly, "I trust Jiajia."

    Ling Feiyue replied quietly, "I only know that she has yed us but I don''t know why she does it. She isn''t telling you the whole truth and I hope that you will be careful. You may think that she is a bimbo for making you an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect but how do you know that she is not purposely leading you to think that she is stupid?"

    Xue Qianxue added, "The Saintess Fang Zhenfei that I know is almost impossible to tter. Do you really think that she will make you from core prot¨¦g¨¦, senior prot¨¦g¨¦ and elder in a single day because you are ttering her? If she is a bimbo then you are a baboon for thinking that you can actually tter her."

    "Moreover she can give up everything overnight and gives everything to you. Whether it is her beauty, her cultivation realm and cultivation resources, she is sitting at the top. Do you really think that she seriously cares about your ttering? Do you think that a great saintess and sect master of one of the seven major orthodox ns can be ttered by your mere words just because you mention she is better than me? She is actually my superior!"

    Yuan Ji protested weakly, "Qianxue, you are now a great saintess. Therefore you are no less inferior than her!"

    Xue Qianxue heaved a soft sigh, "I think you didn''t know that she is an upper peak saintess."

    Yuan Ji stammered, "Peak...Saintess..."

    Ling Feiyue continued after Xue Qianxue, "Overnight all the elders of the Emperor Hall Sect were killed by her. She is a great saintess. Killing them is all too easy. You really think she needs your help to settle the other elders? She is just ying with them."

    Yuan Ji began to smile awkwardly.

    He could not resist adding, "But she is. Or else we won''t discover her identity, am I right?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "You really think so that she is just mindlessly careless when she had identally disyed your heritage sword for you to discover her at the Sacred Maiden Ceremony that day?"

    "Of course she was careless. She is a bim¡­erm¡­haha¡­" Yuan Ji murmured, resisting the urge to call Jiajia a bimbo.

    "I really don''t know about it because it is my hunch feeling that she already knew that you are in the hall." Ling Feiyue said quietly.

    Yuan Jiughed it off, "This is impossible. Only Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue know¡­haha¡­"

    "She is good in ying with words. She gives us specific codes to nail you down." Xue Qianxue said quietly and she was trembling lightly. "I am beginning to think that she wants me to find you. Also, you are able to locate her because she mentions she found your heritage sword ''by the roadside''. But how do you know if this phrase isn''t purposely coined by her to let you discover her?"

    "Haha. Jiajia isn''t that smart. The two of you are thinking things tooplex. There aren''t so many conspiracy theories. I think that is the problem with the cultivators from the major celestial ns. Once they are involved in too many intrigues, they will think that everyone is plotting against them."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

 Chapter 96 The Battle With The Goddesses

    "I''ve got nothing that Jiajia wants from me. I am only a poor cultivator. It doesn''t make any sense for her to y with my feelings. And I can feel her heart for me."

    With that Yuan Ji hadughed off the two maidens'' words of caution for him.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess had naturally heard their conversations. This Jiajia must be a great enemy of this insufferable man. An enemy of my enemy is my ally. I can make use of this Jiajia to get rid of him¡­

    When she had thought of this, she wasughing delightfully.

    But her heart was soon despondent. It was because she had remembered how this insufferable man had forced her to sleep with him for the past few days and he was even using her as a pillow. Not a hugging pillow but a head pillow.

    This was not the end of her humiliations; he had even force her to bath with him, used her fur as a wiping towel and caused her pure eyes to witness him in his naked vanity glory.

    And she was being forced to love him like a family!

    She was weeping bitter tears now!

    Yuan Ji saw the watery eyes of Xiaobai and he was smiling, "This poor spirit beast is always looking at me with great emotion. She must be so touched that I''ve been showering her with so much love in the past few days. Come to think of that, her fur is really sofortable that I feel that I am actually hugging a maiden. Haha. Now even my insomnia is solved. It will be such a pity to sell her away¡­"

    He reached out to pat her head, "Xiaobai, why are you so cute. Haha."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The ancient tomb still had plenty of hidden chambers and unexplored passages. Except for the profound pills that they had found, at which theypletely looted, most of the spirit nts were still intact in the garden chamber.

    It was because Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue did not have the heart to loot the garden clean. After all, these spirit nts had taken thousands of years to grow. Moreover they did not have a spatial garden with them nor were they knowledgeable in celestial herbs or alchemy.

    Therefore they had only taken what was necessary and recognizable.

    At longst, they had almost gathered what was necessary for them to continue their way.

    Yuan Jiughed, "We are almost done. We can now leave this ce now."

    "s! This is so exhausting!" Xue Qianxue giggled.

    "Ji Yuan¡­Yuan Ji¡­" Ling Feiyue rebuked him lightly, "Please don''t depend on these replenishing profound pills often. They are not good for your cultivation. In fact, it is harmful."

    "I know, I know." Yuan Ji grinned.

    Xue Qianxue nodded and was sighing at him. In fact she was giving him a pitiful look.

    This caused Yuan Ji to return an awkward smile.

    Of course he knew that replenishing profound pills were harmful to cultivation. This was a fact that all the cultivators know. That was why replenishing profound pills were not as expensive as cultivation profound pills.

    Replenishing profound pills and cultivation profound pills actually could not be used at the same time. It was because replenishing profound pills actually consumed the vital profound strength of the cultivator to gain profound strength, preventing the actual growth of the soul sea. In some cases, it may even cause the cultivation strength of the cultivators to shrink.

    That was why the two maidens were warning him of the consequences.

    Usually the most talented cultivators would only use cultivation profound pills and only in the most extreme cases like during a breakthrough or battle, they would force to consume a replenishing profound pill. It was because these talented cultivators were all trying topete with one another to be the youngest high level cultivators. That was why they were extremely reluctant to use replenishing profound pills to regain their strength.

    Yuan Ji could not afford the high grade spirit stones and therefore he could only depend on the replenishing profound pills. He was secretlymenting, "These rich cultivators don''t understand¡­I am notpeting with anyone therefore I am in no hurry to reduce my cultivation time. What the point of shaving off a few years or even tens of years of cultivation when I can now live for thousands of years now?"

    After oveing the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion, Yuan Ji''s life-span had now increased a startling nine thousand years. He now had the life span of a great saint, even more so than most great saints because most of them had only ovee the Three-Stage Silver Lightning Tribtion.

    He was not joking when he had said that he now got all the time in the world and he was going to outlive most of the celestial cultivators.

    Yuan Ji was nowughing as he looked lecherously at Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    He said, "Shall we have a battle here before we go?"

    Xue Qianxue averted her eyes shyly, "My lord, this isn''t such a good idea¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Why is it not a good idea?" He asked.

    "We''re in an ancient tomb. We will only be desecrating this ce and moreover your Yuxian is also here¡­" she was stammering all of a sudden.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly as she continued for Xue Qianxue, "And moreover, we are not the only ones around here."

    "There are others around here?" Yuan Ji was startled. "Who?" He turned to look at Xiaobai, "But she is only a spirit beast."

    Xue Qianxue said shyly, "Not her¡­"

    "Oh, you mean Xiang Li?" Yuan Jiughed. "She can''t hear us or see us. I have already shut off all her sense."

    "Really?" Ling Feiyue hesitated.

    Yuan Ji replied sheepishly, "Spirit entities do not lie. That is what you have said." He had actually questioned Xiang Li on this and her reply was, "This lie is actually spread by the other spirit entities."

    But Xiang Li had promised him that she would only watch and pretended that she was never in the known.

    Ling Feiyue nodded slowly¡­

    Yuan Ji pretended to call out for Xiang Li, "Xiang Li! Xiang Li!"

    "Look, she isn''t even replying."

    Xiang Li had already popped out of his soul sea and was giggling eagerly, "That is right. I am totally invisible."

    Xue Qianxue was still hesitating, "But it is too disrespectful to do it here¡­"

    Even Ling Feiyue was agreeing, "That is right¡­"

    But Yuan Ji could not take no for an answer and he was already touching them and kissing them. Before long, they were all rolling on the grassy garden.

    Actually Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue did not have a strong refusal. Once Yuan Ji had begun to kiss them, all their defenses were broken down and they quickly submitted to him.

    Soon, they had all stripped naked and were battling furiously.

    Xiang Li was giggling, "This is too sinful¡­but I love it¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was also watching intently, "Yes! This is his perfect humiliation. I am watching his humiliation right now¡­"

    But in secretly she was flushing deeply but yet the same time she was unable to pull her eyes away. It was because Yuan Ji was too dashing and the two maidens were too beautiful.

    "I am actually observing his weakness so that I can use it against him in the future¡­"

    For many hours Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had battled furiously against one another while they muttered sweet nothings.

    "Ji Yuan¡­Yuan Ji, you are leading us astray¡­"

    "I feel that our pureness is already tainted by you¡­"

    "Don''t think too much. The two of you are my consorts¡­"

    "I don''t care but you are forbidden to go to the brothels in the future¡­"

    "Haha. With the two of you with me, do I even need to go to the brothel?"

    For as many hours as they had battled, Xiang Li was glued to their battle. "This is too intense¡­if only I have a physical body¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess stared at them as she moaned softly, "How can they produce such soul snatching moaning?" Suddenly her silver fur was bing too hot for her to bear.

    Xiang Li had suddenly noticed that Xiaobai seemed to be in the heat, "Even Xiaobai can''t stand it. Hehehe...this is really too sinful and delicious to my eyes..."

 Chapter 97 Amber Frost City

    Two weekster, Yuan Ji was in the nearest city with his two beloved consorts and his nine-tail silver fox spirit beast. He had no idea where he was and only learnt that this city was called the Amber Frost City and upon arrival, he learnt that it was a city with more than a hundred powerful influences.

    For the past two weeks, he was actually getting quite anxious that he had not found any settlement yet.

    Two weeks may not be a long time but in two weeks they had actually traveled more than a thousand miles from the unknown ancient tomb!

    As saints, they have startling recovery and vital breath cycle. Therefore they can travel ten times faster than a fourth realm cultivator and they did not even need to rest or sleep for the past two weeks.

    Cities and towns are actually very rare in the Deste Celestial Fraternity so it took them quite a while to find one. Most cities are actually trading cities with hundreds of influences. Naturally, in every city, the seven major orthodox ns may likely to have a branch to exert their influence.

    When they had arrived inside the city, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were causing heads to turn in their direction. Although they were wearing a veiled hat that covered their entire face but they were exuding an enticing demeanor that was causing everyone to look into their direction.

    Moreover Yuan Ji was actually a dashing man plus he had an extremely rare spirit beast that was following him.

    It was impossible for his group not to attract any attention at all.

    "Yuan Ji, we are going to purchase two flying mounts. Do you want one too?" The two maidens had said to him. For the past two weeks, they were slowly learning to call him Yuan Ji instead of Ji Yuan.

    "Buy a bigger winged mount that can take the three of us. There is no need to spend extra spirit stones on an extra mount." He rebuked them lightly. These two maidens were spending spirit stones like water.

    "Alright."

    Yuan Ji said to them, "Wait for the two of you outside the city. In the meantime I will be paying the guild of the Mystic Eye Sect a visit first to purchase some information and picking up the current gossips. I will look for you shortly."

    He paused before saying, "And be careful."

    As the two maidens walked off, they were giggling and whispering out of earshot from Yuan Ji.

    "He didn''t even know that bigger flying mounts are several times more expensive than a normal size flying mount¡­"

    "Bet that he didn''t know how to ride a flying mount¡­"

    "Howe?"

    "Cos he is too poor¡­"

    "Chuckles!"

    Yuan Ji naturally did not know that the two maidens were talking behind his back. He was admiring their beautiful backs as he looked dreamily in their direction. "I have such good consorts. Moreover they are also great saintesses. Right now, they must be praising me behind my back. Haha."

    "But I have only less than two weeks to be with them¡­" He sighed softly.

    "Then you ought to make the full use of your time and bang them often." Xiang Li chuckled inside his soul sea.

    Yuan Ji frowned, "If you are not around then I will probably be more active."

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji had quickly finished his business in the Mystic Eye Guild, an information branch of the Mystic Eye Sect and it turned out that he did not need to pay a lot for thetest gossips. It was because it was the talking point of the city and the entire fraternity.

    The Celestial Orthodox Sect had suddenly executed three saintesses, six supremacies, a dozen golden celestials and countless ordinary prot¨¦g¨¦s for being a mole for the Evil Cultivation Pce. This news shook the entire Orthodox Fraternity and surprised many that the Celestial Orthodox Sect would be so heavily infiltrated by the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    That was not the end.

    The Celestial Orthodox Sect, the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, Mystic Profound Pavilion and the Burning Heavens Pavilion had joined hands recently as they wiped out three major bases of the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    Even Little Princess of the Evil Cultivation Pce was said to be seriously injured during thetest battle.

    This was a major setback for the influence of the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    "How did the secret bases of the Evil Cultivation Pce be found out so easily?" Yuan Ji wondered. "Zhao Songjin is now the new Sacred Maiden. She is the biggest mole and yet she is alright? This is indeed very weird."

    He had also learnt that Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were also the talking point.

    Ling Feiyue had been dered amon enemy of the Orthodox Fraternity and an expedition was now being organized to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect by the Six Major Orthodox ns. The only major orthodox n that was missing was the Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    The charges that were trumped against Ling Feiyue were that she had openly attacked the Seven Major Orthodox ns and had even disrupted the Sacred Maiden Ceremony by kidnapping Xue Qianxue.

    For her open challenge, this had be a blood feud and punitive actions had to be taken against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    "Weird. Didn''t I meet the sect masters of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and the Mystic Profound Pavilion not too long ago? I''m sure that they are aware that Qianxue is following Feiyue on her own free will."

    "What? Ling Feiyue''s Blue Moon Sect is actually conspiring with the Evil Cultivation Pce to destroy the Seven Major Orthodox ns. This is too ridiculous."

    "Xue Qianxue may be under the cultivation spell of the Evil Cultivation Pce and the heretic cultivators¡­"

    Yuan Ji was left to shake his head furiously. "These people really know how to create false charges and their face saving measures."

    The Celestial Orthodox Sect did not dare to dere Xue Qianxue as a traitor because they want to have some face-saving measures. Therefore framing the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was the most logical option.

    In this way, they could also preserve a chance that they may be able to persuade Xue Qianxue to return to the Celestial Orthodox Sect too.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now Sword Demon Ji Yuan. He had killed Third Young Master Jian Menghao, Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, Young Mistress Jin Yuyun and many other golden celestials two weeks ago...he had gone missing for a hundred years but had recently been discovered to be a cultivation ve of the Evil Cultivation Pce...what the heck is this!"

    As Yuan Ji was pondering over the many gossips on the information slips that he had purchased from the Mystic Eye Guild on the streets, there was a loud shout behind his back. "This is the person with the nine-tail silver fox!"

    "Hero! Please wait! Please sell me your nine-tail silver fox! I can offer you a good price!"

    He turned around to see a group of five golden celestials and dozens of cultivators that were approaching him hastily.

    The golden celestial that was shouting to him had suddenly halted his steps because he had suddenly recognized Yuan Ji.<sub> </sub>

    "It is you!!!" the golden celestial was flushed with rage when he saw Yuan Ji.

    "You are Li Yuan!" the golden celestial was actually Saint Wu Heng from Burning Heavens Pavilion.

    The other four golden celestials, including a female cultivator seemed to have recognized him too and they were looking quite startled to see him. These golden celestials were all at the lightning trial with Saint Wu Heng that day, so naturally they had all recognized him.

    The female golden celestial gasped with with pleasant surprise, "It is him..."

    Yuan Ji looked at Saint Wu Heng with a weak smile, "You are not dead yet?"

    He had met Saint Wu Heng and his group in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials. To be exact, during the Fourth Trial while he was taking the Lightning Trials. He had not expected to meet them again so soon.

    Saint Wu Heng hummed coldly, "Do you really think a saint can be so easily be killed? Although I am not dead yet but two of my juniors had died because of you!"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "So what do you want?"

    Saint Wu Heng smiled coldly, "However I have quite a forgiving nature. If you leave behind your nine-tail silver fox then I can consider our feuds to be cancelled. What do you think?"

    "What if I don''t? You want to rob me or attack me in public?" Yuan Ji was quite amused.

    ording to the rules of the Orthodox Fraternity, no one could be hold ountable for actions that were conducted during a trial. This was the unspoken iron rule for thousands of years.

    Moreover Yuan Ji did not attack Saint Wu Heng''s juniors directly. Therefore there was no way he could be hold ountable for it.

    So even if he did not want to sell his nine-tail silver fox, there was nothing that Saint Wu Heng could do to him.

    In public, Saint Wu Heng and his group would not dare to gang up to attack or rob him. After all, this was the Orthodox Fraternity!

    Saint Wu Heng was smiling coldly, "Li Yuan, have you forgotten that this is the Orthodox Fraternity? How dare an unorthodox cultivator like you dare to be so bold here."

    Yuan Ji grinned back, "Why shouldn''t I be so bold? There is no rule that states that an unorthodox cultivator cannot roam the streets of the Orthodox Fraternity. Haha."

    "Although there is no such rule but you''re from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect has just been dered an enemy to be exterminated on sight by the orthodox ns." When Saint Wu Heng had said that, he and his group had suddenly all drawn out their swords.

    Yuan Ji was stunned.

    He hadpletely forgotten that he had reported his celestial n of origin as the Spirit Blue Moon Sect as payback to Ling Feiyue¡­

    If he knows that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect would be dered an enemy of all the orthodox ns then he would never have pretended that he was from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. He really did not expect that Ling Feiyue would be so bold despite her gentle demeanor.

    Of all the thousands of celestial ns, why did he have to choose the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and to frame Ling Feiyue that day?

    Unfortunately in this world, there is no medicine for regrets.

    He had thought that he was being very smart back then and now it had backfired on him¡­

    Now they were free to rob him¡­

    Saint Wu Heng shouted loudly to everyone in the streets, "He is Li Yuan and he is from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect!"

    When he had announced that Yuan Ji was from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, almost everyone had unsheathed their swords at the same time.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji saw that there were hundreds of angry stares in his direction.

    "There is a handsome bounty for each prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect that is killed¡­"

    "If he is a golden celestial then he is worth a thousand high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "Is he one of the golden celestials that had stormed the Celestial Orthodox Sect with Ling Feiyue?"

    "We will also get rewards ording to the body parts too¡­"

    "Everyone! Get him!"

    Xiang Li was frowning in Yuan Ji''s soul sea, "You''re from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    Yuan Ji replied bitterly to her, "That is before I have met you."

    Even the Abyssal Null Goddess was thinking miserably. My master does not look like he is popr with these people. And I have to protect him?

    Yuan Jiughed aloud, "So the whole lot of you wants to fight with me? Thene on! I''m not afraid of you¡­"

    "What brave words¡­" everyone was saying when they had heard him.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had grabbed Xiaobai in his arms and he had disyed his lightless profound art when he had challenged everyone halfway. In a blink of an eye, he had turned around and was swiftly running away.

    "He¡­has run away?"

    "He runs¡­"

    "Too shameless!"

    "What are you all waiting for? Go after him!" Saint Wu Heng shouted to everyone as he disappeared in a blink of an eye to chase after this ''Li Yuan''.

    Everyone was all chasing Yuan Ji and as they chased him, they were shouting to the rest. "There is a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect here! Kill him!"

    Xiang Li was stunned, "I thought that you have the undying fighting spirit? Why are you running away?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Did I run? I''m fighting for my life now."

    Xiang Li: ...

 Chapter 98 Whoâ€™s The Pursuers (1)

    Yuan Ji had quickly run out of the city to the mountains outside. With his light profound arts, he did not even need to go through the gates but he had scaled the tall city walls in a few blinks of an eye.

    "What the heck! His lightless skill is insane¡­"

    "This is not real¡­"

    Even some of the golden celestials were dumbfounded by his lightless skill disy.

    Yuan Ji had always been renowned for his lightless profound art. There were almost no ces that he could not get into or considered too difficult for him to reach.

    Soon there were only a few dozen pursuers that were still following Yuan Ji and they were mostly golden celestials. None of the pursuers that were still following Yuan Ji were weak in their lightless profound art or profound strength.

    Yuan Ji soon found himself in a rugged forest that was surrounded by tall cliffs all around him. He had reached the dead end now!

    Saint Wu Saint roared withughter, "He has run into a dead end. Now he is finished!"

    "Indeed he is!" a nonchnt voice said.

    Saint Wu Saint turned to his back and saw that it was spoken by a handsome golden celestial in white robe.

    When he saw him, he was smiling immediately. "I wonder who it is. So it is the Eldest Young Master, Saint Zhan Long of the Great Inevitable Divine n."

    Many of the cultivators were now muttering when they had heard that it was Eldest Young Master Zhan Long of the Great Inevitable Divine n!

    It was because the Great Inevitable Divine n was one of the seven major orthodox ns and it was also the most powerful of them all!

    Naturally Eldest Young Master Zhan Long invoked awe and admiration immediately. Moreover he was also a middle tier saint!

    Yuan Ji raised an eyebrow as he looked in the direction of Eldest Young Master Zhan Long with a grin. All in all, he saw that he was being surrounded by more than thirty golden celestials and a hundred low level cultivators that were mostly fourth realm cultivators.

    Actually fourth realm cultivators were not low level cultivators and were the main fighting group in the celestial fraternity. But to the golden celestials including Yuan Ji, they were low level cultivators.

    In turn, the fourth realm cultivators had thought of themselves as high level cultivators and those beneath them as low level cultivators.

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Long had several golden celestials with him and he was smiling, "Elder Wu Heng. Long time no see. I have heard that there is a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect earlier so I am also giving chase. Judging from his lightless profound art, he isn''t weak at all."

    Saint Wu Heng was smiling, "There is no better help than having Eldest Young Master Zhan Long here to nail him down. I actually don''t care about the rewards on him. I only want his nine-tail spirit fox."

    "Haha. Is that so? So am I actually." Eldest Young Master Zhan Long chuckled softly.

    Saint Wu Heng: ¡­

    Saint Wu Heng forced out a weak smile, "In that case, I will be happy to give the nine-tail silver fox to Eldest Young Master Zhan Long. This is just a gesture of our future friendship."

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Longughed as he bowed with his hands, "In that case, I will be happy to make a friend out of you then. Haha."

    Saint Wu Heng was soonughing. He was actually thinking that he should not try to anger Eldest Young Master Zhan Long because he was going to be the future sect master of the powerful Great Inevitable Divine n. It was better to make a friend out of him instead. Moreover Eldest Young Master Zhan Long was a middle tier saint while he was only an initial tier saint.

    Actually the other golden celestials that were presented had also wanted the nine-tail silver fox for themselves but when they had heard that Saint Wu Heng and Eldest Young Master Zhan Long had both wanted the spirit fox for themselves, they immediately dropped the lofty idea of obtaining it.

    Yuan Ji was actually watching them as they chatted. It was as though they were treating him as an invisible person!

    He really did not know whether tough or cry because he was the master of Xiaobai and no one had thought of asking him for his opinion.

    Xiang Li was giggling, "That is because you can''t escape anymore and they can take away your life at any moment. So, are you afraid?"

    Actually Xiang Li did not need to ask Yuan Ji about his state of emotions after she had merged with his soul sea. She could actually feel all his little emotions as they were linked as one now.

    "Afraid?" Yuan Ji wasughing to Xiang Li in his soul sea. "Not a chance!"

    Saint Wu Heng had now turned to Yuan Li to say, "I am Saint Wu Heng, initial mortal-step saint, Elder of the Burning Heavens Pavilion!"

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Longughed as he introduced himself, "Saint Zhan Long, middle mortal-step saint¡­"

    "Eldest Young Master Zhan Long is a middle tier saint¡­"

    One by one, all the thirty golden celestials were all reporting their cultivation realm levels and their tier grades.

    "Saint¡­"

    "Supremacy¡­"

    "Celestial¡­"

    This was actually a formality before a death duel and everyone was giving a slow introduction of themselves. It was because in their eyes, this hated prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was as good as dead!

    After Yuan Ji had heard their introductions, he gave Xiaobai a few rounds of warm pat before he put her down gently. "Go to one side and don''t get hurt."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess reluctantly gave him a forlorn look before moving aside. Are you really going to fight all of them alone?

    Yuan Ji grinned as he looked at all his opponents, "Do you know why I have lured all of you out of the city? It is because I don''t want to hurt the innocents and I''m afraid that my Xiaobai will be hurt in the process."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was startled. He is afraid that I may get hurt?

    "Haha, he is talking big now."

    "He is full of bull shits¡­haha¡­"

    "I bet that this is hisst face saving measure before he dies¡­"

    Even Saint Wu Heng and Eldest Young Master Zhan Long were smiling coldly.

    With Eldest Young Master Zhan Long who was almost an unkible middle saint here, no one believes that this ''Li Yuan'' would survive.

    Yuan Ji added, "Actually I''m not Li Yuan and I am not from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect¡­"

    Saint Wu Heng interrupted him, "Do you think that it is actually meaningful to wriggle yourself out of this situation now? Save your exining and draw your sword like a real blood and iron man!"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I didn''t say that I didn''t want to fight."

    When he had said that, he had unsheathed his divine sword.

    When everyone saw his divine sword, there was a silent damper in their blood curling hearts. In fact their earlier excitements had be a light tremble for some of them.

    It was because their divine senses had told them that this was a celestial grade divine sword!

    In short this was a half-step celestial sword to be more exact.

    But it was enough tomand awe because even a half-step celestial sword was better than the best heaven-step divine sword by several notches!

    Saint Wu Heng had suddenly gulped as he looked at his half-step divine sword.

    With Eldest Young Master Zhan Long looked at his heaven-step divine sword and had suddenly felt ack of luster in his sword.

    Slowly he said to Saint Wu Heng, "I''ve changed my mind. I will let you have the nine-tail silver fox and I will take his sword!"

    Saint Wu Heng was delighted as he quickly answered, "Deal!"

    Yuan Jiughed softly, "I haven''t introduced myself yet and you''re already thinking of sharing my loot."

    Saint Wu Hengughed, "We already know who you are. Li Yuan, fifth realm golden celestial of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. There is no need to tell us your cultivation tier because we are not interested."

    Now a cultivation tier consisted of the grade and stepbined.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, seventh realm middle mortal-step golden saint of the Orthodox Sword Sect." Yuan Ji purposely reported his name and cultivation realm to the fullest.

    This totally smirked of sheer conceit if one was to report their cultivation realm in such a lengthy manner.

    But at this moment none of the cultivators including Eldest Young Master Zhan Long was smiling. In fact many of the fifth realm golden celestials and the low level cultivators were taking slow steps to the back.

    One cultivator managed to stammer out. "He is the Sword Demon Ji Yuan¡­and he had killed¡­Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo¡­"

    "Isn''t Saintess Jian Yuluo a middle-tier saintess?"

    "She is¡­I have heard that she is a peaked middle saintess too¡­"

    "And she died fighting him?"

    Saint Wu Heng had quietly turned to the cultivators that were behind him as he asked politely, "How many other saints do we have in ourpany?"

    He was not paying attention to the introduction earlier as he had been staring coldly at Yuan Ji to unnerve him.

    "One, two¡­three¡­"

    Saint Wu Hengughed aloud, "We have five saints here. So what are we afraid of? This is a pure massacre!"

    "Actually I am only a half-step saint. I had my breakthrough a year ago and have only regained my profound strength to the sixth realm level¡­"

    "I''m also a half-step saint. My profound strength is only regained at the fifth realm level. Sure I can forcefully raise my profound strength to the seventh level but I will be screwed for a long time and even my cultivation base will be affected¡­"

    Half-step saints were still seventh realm saints. They could burn their spiritual force to temporary raised their profound strength to the seventh realm level but they would suffer a bacsh.

    When Yuan Ji had killed Elder Hai Guotian while saving Shangguan Yan, he had forcefully raised his profound strength realm level to the fifth realm and suffered a minor bacsh. Although he could raise his profound strength realm level to the seventh realm but he was more calcting and did not want a major repercussion. That was why he had only raised it to the just nice level to kill Elder Hai Guotian.

    Saint Wu Heng was exasperated, "What the heck is this? We actually have two half-step saints here?! Why do we have half-step saints roaming the streets instead of in their cultivation chambers?"<sub> </sub>

    When he had said that, a third of the golden celestials were sheepish even though they were not saints. It was because they all had their own recent breakthroughs at various stages. And they were all cursing Saint Wu Heng, "We are not as rich as you. That''s why it takes us longer¡­"

    Elder Wu Heng hummed coldly, "Never mind. We can all depend on Eldest Young Master Zhan Long here. Haha."

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Long: ¡­

    "Actually there is nothing to be afraid of. Go get him now. I will further increase his body part rewards by 100 times!" Eldest Young Master Zhan Long said coldly. "Kill him!"

    When everyone had heard him, they were all highly motivated and had all began to charge toward Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji grinned as he swung his sword forward and immediately a wave of sword energy like a coiling dragon was disyed in front of him!

    This was the new profound art that he had created with Ling Feiyue!

    Immediately several of the cultivators werepletely demolished by his sword energy wave.

    Yuan Ji grinned as he had shed forward to a half-step saint and a golden supremacy, "Want to try my sword stroke?"

    p With a single wave of his sword stroke, he had sent the saint and the golden supremacy to crash onto the ground with a thunderous impact!</anda>

    It was only then that everyone could see that Yuan Ji''s divine sword had a double halo that indicated that he had perfectly harmonize with his divine sword!

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Long was startled. It was because he had not even divine harmony with his sword yet. But he quicklyposed himself to rally to everyone, "Ji Yuan doesn''t have any powerful profound arts. He is a pure sword cultivator. Moreover he is using a celestial sword. The drain to his profound strength will be heavy. Very soon, he will bepletely exhausted by us."

    As he said that, he had suddenly noticed half of the original one hundred plus had all fallen in a blink of an eye. All of them were crushed by a single sword stroke by Ji Yuan!

    When cultivators fought with their profound arts, profound strength was not the only factor. Profound strength was a necessary factor in using powerful profound arts that produce profound power.

    When two swords were shing against each other, the profound power produced will determine if one side had the ''superior strength''. And this ''superior strength'' was a mixture of profound strength and power.

    Weaker cultivators could actually still ovee a stronger cultivator by using a powerful profound art at the expense of using more profound strength to generate the profound power to fight a stronger cultivator evenly. However they would still lose if they still could not be able to gain advantage because their drain of profound strength would be much greater than their opponents.

    When there was a profound power disparity of 30%, an opponent would be forced to take a small step back, taking another step backward for every additional profound power disparity.

    When profound power disparity of 100% urs, opponents would be knocked back and even if the attack was parried, they would still lose additional profound strength during the exchange.

    When profound power disparity of 200% urs, a crushing blow would ur, causing the opponents to be in a state of defenseless unless the differences in profound power would be matched.

    Right now, Yuan Ji was swinging his sword and almost all the cultivators were totally crashed by his profound power with a single hit!

    When he had disyed his sword energies, even golden celestials were flying left and right with no defenses to speak of.

    It was because swords could aid the profound power that was produced and sword energies had more profound power at the cost of profound strength!

    Even though Yuan Ji did not have any divine profound arts that could produce powerful profound power but he got a celestial sword that could enhance his profound strength into profound power. Moreover, he had also divine harmony with his sword and the profound power that could be produced was also much greater!

    Usually a power difference of 100% is enough to send fear to the opponents. Now many of the cultivators were witnessing a power difference of 200% to 300%.

    "Too strong!"

    "He not only has a divine sword but this is a celestial grade¡­"

    "He is a middle tier saint too!..."

    "And a sword saint¡­"

    "He is too unstoppable¡­"

    "I don''t want to die¡­"

    "My profound aura is like air against him¡­"

    "He is a beast¡­"

    "Don''t kill me please¡­"

    "I am only a lowly peak golden supremacy with a precious sword and no divine arts. Please have mercy on this good-for-nothing poor cultivator¡­"

    "I still have my family to feed¡­"

    Suddenly all the celestial ns other than the groups from the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Great Inevitable Divine n had all fled the scene¡­

    Sword Saint Ji Yuan was too OP for them to handle¡­

    Many of the cultivators were now breaking ranks and fleeing!

    And the battle did not evenst for ten blinks of an eye for this to happen.

    Saint Wu Heng had raised his sword as he disyed the Burning Heavens Sword Art, a sword art that could enhance his sword strokes by 100% profound power at a cost of a lot of profound strength.

    As for the rest of his group, they had also disyed the Burning Heavens Sword Arts but because they were at a lower mastery than Saint Wu Heng, they could only manage to produce 30-70% profound power of what Saint Wu Heng could handle.

    As for Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and his group, they were all disying their epitome profound arts against Ji Yuan.

    Together Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and Saint Wu Heng were at the front line now as they led their fighting group against a lone Yuan Ji.

    Naturally with two saints joining hands together, Yuan Ji was now forced to redistribute his profound power more evenly into his sword strokes and the earlier crashing defeats of the cultivators had quickly vanished.

    Although they had stabilized the situation but Yuan Ji was still moving through their ranks like an unstoppable fighter and he was still felling cultivators left and right.

    Saint Wu Heng had already received several stabs by Yuan Ji. If he was not a saint then he would already be cut down by him.

    Even Eldest Young Master Zhan Long had also received several bloody wounds.

    It was because all the cultivators had suddenly discovered one fact; whether it was attacking speed, profound strength, profound power and recovery, none of them couldpare with him.

    Their wolf-pack tactics did not seem to work on Yuan Ji at all!

    It was because Yuan Ji''s sword arts cost little to his profound strength and he had a startling recovery rate. Moreover he was extremely precise in his attacks that he was drawing blood with almost every attack against the weaker cultivators.

    To fight Yuan Ji to say the least, was extremely demoralizing.

    Soon even Saint Wu Heng had fallen to the ground, exhausted by his powerful sword art and exhausted from his fight with Yuan Ji.

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Long was forced to eat mud on the ground after Saint Wu Heng had dropped to the ground.

    He was left to mutter almost incoherent, "This is impossible¡­we are both middle-tier saints. Why is he¡­so much stronger than me¡­is it because of the sword that is in his hands¡­"

    Today they had finally realized how strong a Sword Saint was.

    And Yuan Ji was still looking as fresh as ever and he was not even injured.

    In the entire battle, Yuan Ji shed little of his defensive golden profound animus. It was because he did not need it if his opponents could not hit him. As long as his opponents could not overpower him, he could focus all his profound strength into his attacks.

    He did use his golden profound animus asionally during the battle but it was not to defend against attacks or to narrow down the profound power disparity but to use his profound animus to move faster so that he got more room to execute his sword strokes.

    Yuan Ji had a look of disappointment as he grinned at Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and Saint Wu Heng, "At first I was a little worried that I may see a divine profound art or two. Turn up that the two of you are only sword cultivators."

    Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and Saint Wu Heng were trembling as theyy t on the ground, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, please have mercy on us¡­we promise you we won''t hunt you ever again¡­please let us go¡­"

    "So I am a Sword Saint now and not a Sword Demon?" Yuan Ji mocked them sarcastically.

    He waved his sword before saying coldly to them, "Go before I change my mind."

    Saint Wu Heng, Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and many others quickly mustered whatever little strength that they could muster to make their hasty retreat.

    As Yuan Ji was about to walk away, he saw a female cultivator that was being left behind by Saint Wu Heng. He had of course recognized this lovely golden celestial.

    She was limping slowly away. But instead of being afraid of him, she was smiling to him. "So you are Ji Yuan. You are indeed as dashing as the rumors have said. You look good without your beard. I''m Mu Wan''Er." Then with a bashful look, she limped away.

    All of a sudden there was a terrifying scream in front that shook the entire mountains.

    Yuan Ji was startled as he quickly shed forward to take a look.

    He had only appeared in the vicinity when he saw the dead body of Saint Wu Heng and Eldest Young Master Zhan Long.

    In front of him was an alluring maiden that was extremely enchanting to the eyes. However when Yuan Ji had caught the sight of her face, he had immediately turned ashen.

    It was because she was Little Princess!

    And right now Little Princess was saying to the rest of the survivors, "It is all thanks to Ji Yuan that I have managed to lure the top experts from the two major orthodox ns out of the city. Now scram!"

    All the surviving cultivators were scared out of their wits as they bolted immediately!

    Little Princess had now turned to look at Yuan Ji with an enchanting smile, "I have finally found you at long time."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Can''t you fight me fair and square? Do you have to frame me up?"

    "Why are you so afraid of her?" Xiang Li was asking curiously.

    "It is because she is a most venomous maiden and a dark blemish in my Great Dao¡­"

 Chapter 99 Whoâ€™s The Pursuers (2)

    Little Princess smiled coldly at Yuan Ji, "Long time no see. So how have you been?"

    Yuan Ji lied, "Yes, it has been three hundred years now."

    Actually the two of them were lying at the same time.

    It was because the two of them had obviously seen each other at the broken temple that was near the Holy Maiden Peaks.

    Little Princess pointed at the nine-tail silver fox, "It seems that you have a lucky urrencetely and got yourself an extremely rare spirit beast. This nine-tail silver fox can be grinded to make some good dual cultivation profound pills."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Yuan Ji said coldly, "I''m warning you not to have any funny ideas on my Xiaobai! If you want to kill me today, I am afraid that you will be greatly disappointed today. Although I have just been through a tough battle but I have actually used very little of my profound strength. Moreover¡­"

    He grinned before shing his celestial sword, "Moreover I believe that my sword here is equaled to your cultivation strength now. Although you may be a great saintess but I am actually not afraid of you. Let me tell you something interesting. I''m now a middle-tier saint."

    "Also, I have actually learnt from the Mystic Eye Guild that you are injured. Therefore you are not in your peak, am I right?"

    Little Princess inhaled softly, "You have advanced too quickly. There may be repercussions."

    Yuan Jiughed, "You don''t have to worry about me. I''m perfectly alright. In fact, you should be worrying about yourself."

    Little Princess smiled, "Do you think that you can defeat me even if I am not in my peak? What if the rumors are wrong? What if you are wrong?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I still have several trump cards to ensure that I can defeat you¡­"

    "And your trump card is to lure me to Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue so that the three of you can group together to fight me?" Little Princess was smiling. "What if I tell you that it is no longer possible and I have them in my hands?"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly trembling, "What did you just say?! Are you joking? There are few opponents that can take the two of them down at the same time. They are both great saintesses!"

    Little Princess giggled softly, "Of course not if I am fighting them with profound arts. But what if I use despicable means like my Mystic Dreams Powder, Idiotic Divine Sands and Extreme Happiness Delirium Ash? You know what I am capable of, am I right? I will say that you are only too familiar with my means. I can even conceal my golden eyes and surprise them too."

    Yuan Ji heart had grown cold instantly!

    Xiang Li could feel his heart growing cold and she was cursing Little Princess in his soul sea, "You''re right. She may have a pretty face but heart is extremely venomous!"

    "What do you want?" Yuan Ji said slowly.

    "Now you are talking sense. What do I want?" Little Princess was humming coldly before she said icily, "Why did you tell the Celestial Orthodox Sect that Zhao Songjin is on my side? Do you know that she has now betrayed my Evil Cultivation Pce? Do you know how many prot¨¦g¨¦s that I have lost?!"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "And how did you know that I am the one that tells the Celestial Orthodox Sect? I am actually not the one."

    Little Princess answered, "Obviously you tell Xue Qianxue and let her tells the Matriarch Sacred Saint. Do you want me to say it for you?"

    "So you have been keeping tags on me?" Yuan Ji hummed coldly.

    Ever since he had escaped from Little Princess three hundred years ago, he had noticed that there would be an unusual perfume fragrance in his sect every ten years. He had a good sense of smell and moreover, he could never forget the perfume fragrance that Little Princess had always been using. Therefore he knew that she was lying that she did not see him for a long time.

    Because of her, there was a dark blemish in his Great Dao and he would get frequent nightmares that Little Princess would suddenly raid his sect overnight.

    In fact, he had be increasing paranoid.

    He could still vividly remember when he was captured by her, she had shaved him clean and even had his portrait drawn. This was not the only thing that had happened. She had even recorded his humiliations in a memory stone to remind him that she had a handle over him!<sub> </sub>

    Then she had forced him to dual cultivate with her multiple times a day over an entire month before he managed to find a way to escape.

    Yuan Ji raised his voice at her, "You have better tell me where Feiyue and Qianxue are now or don''t me me for being ruthless!"

    Little Princess pointed her fingers in a direction, "Hmph! They are over there. If you hurry then you may get to see them for the veryst time!"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he grabbed Xiaobai, "Let''s go¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" Little Princess said coldly as she threw a stone to him. "This thing is useless to me now. You can have it back!"

    Yuan Ji was startled as he caught hold of it. This is a memory stone. Why did Little Princess give it to me? Don''t tell me that she havepletely humiliated Feiyue and Qianxue, forcing them to dual cultivate with someone else and recorded it in this memory stone?! She is too wicked!

    But he did not have the time to ponder and he hastily headed in the direction that Little Princess had pointed to.

    In his arms were ''Xiaobai''.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess could feel the warmth of Yuan Ji''s hands on her bosoms again. She was looking confused ever since earlier when Yuan Ji had grabbed her to run along with him. At first she had been struggling because his dirty hands had been too rude.

    But now she no longer struggled. Protect me, you say? I don''t need you to protect me once I have my profound strength back. But since you are so rude to me, I consider it your debt to protect me until I have fully regained my profound strength¡­

    After Yuan Ji was gone, Little Princess bit her lips and said coldly, "Ji Yuan! I hate you!"

    Her mind had shback to when Ji Yuan had just escaped from her and she had specially made a trip to the Five Heavens Peaks to see him. Then she had seen the Saintess Yuluo with him and they were quite intimate¡­

    In her rage, she sent a message to Saintess Yuluo''s father, Sect Master Jian Kang and told him that her adulterous daughter was now with someone else. She really did not mince her nderous words in that message.

    Many yearster when Ji Yuan had be a sword saint, she had even auctioned off his portrait to put a damper into his spirits.

    Slowly she had turned around as a veiled maiden in blue who was apanied by two lovely maidens were seen approaching her.

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei, why did you have to go against my Evil Cultivation Pce? Do you know that my father will surely avenge me? And my two brothers will soon exit their cultivation reclusion. They are all above me!"

    As she said that, there was a drool of golden blood at the side of her small lips. She had actually been seriously injured and she was only suppressing until now.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei said nonchntly, "I have fulfilled yourst wish to see Ji Yuan. Now it is time for you to fulfill your promise to me."

    Little Princess smiled bitterly, "I don''t understand how you can manage to track him down so easily. I have thought that I may have several more weeks to live."

    "And I don''t understand why you have to frame him even when you are dying." Saintess Fang Zhenfei said coldly. "If I know that you will do something like this, I will not fulfill yourst wish."

    Little Princess chuckled weakly, "They are just unlucky to meet me here. I may as well send these righteous cultivators to their deaths."

    Then she added with a mncholy sigh, "You won''t understand. I want him to curse me daily. Got it?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei hummed, "So do you want me to end your life or you will do it yourself?"

    "I shall not bother you!" Little Princess had unsheathed her divine sword and shed it on her throat.

    With a soft slump on the ground, she had sumbed onto the ground and her golden blood was spilled from her neck.

    The fluttering blue skirt of Saintess Fang Zhenfei could be seen in front of her before her eyes had closed¡­

 Chapter 100 Memories Of The Past

    Yuan Ji was running like a lightning bolt through the mountains in the direction that Little Princess had pointed to.

    Xiang Li was startled that Yuan Ji could actually run so fast. He isn''t exaggerating about his lightless profound art.

    Yuan Ji had rarely disyed his swiftness movement art to his limit because he did not want to let anyone to know his real limits and also because he rarely fled in an actual fight.

    All of a sudden he saw Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue at a small clearing and there was even arge spirit crane that was near them.

    He stammered as soon as he was near them, "You are both alright???"

    Xue Qianxue gave him a curious look before she chuckled, "Of course we are alright or else we won''t be standing here. Why are you in such a hurry?"

    Yuan Ji was stunned before he asked, "Did you see anyone else here?"

    Xue Qianxue turned to look at Ling Feiyue with a perplexed look and they both answered, "No. Why should there be anyone else?"

    Ling Feiyueughed softly, "Look at you. Don''t tell me that you are lost while you are looking for us? There is nothing to panic about. We are just about to ride on this spirit crane to look for you."

    Yuan Ji turned to the giant spirit crane with a bitter look, "This crane¡­is it expensive?"

    Xue Qianxue immediately giggled, "Not expensive. It is cheap."

    Yuan Ji had a sigh of relief, "That is good¡­"

    Xue Qianxue raised her fingers andughed, "In fact, it is free. Hehe!"

    "Free? What do you mean?"

    p While Yuan Ji did not know how much a flying mount would cost but flying mounts were beyond the reach of the ordinary cultivators. Even the sect master of the Emperor Hall Sect could not afford one. Also, everyone knows that Spirit Cranes and Phoenixes can cost a leg and a hand in the cultivation fraternity.</anda>

    "Why don''t you buy a phoenix then¡­" Yuan Ji mumbled.

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Actually we try to but they do not have one in this ce. So we have to settle with a Spirit Crane. It is just 100,000 high grade spirit stones."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I thought you say it is free?" Yuan Ji said bitterly. "Do you know I can do many things with 100,000 high grade spirit stones?"

    Ling Feiyue kicked him lightly, "Why are you looking at us like this? It is not spending your money but ours! Anyway we went to the auction house and we sold some stuff for 1mil high grade spirit stones. Therefore 100k high grade spirit stones are really nothing at all!"

    Yuan Ji waspletely speechless, "What did you sell?"

    "Did you remember that we have the empty shell of the celestial sword? We sold it for 1mil high grade spirit stones. It is a buyout by the auction house and we didn''t even need to go through the auctions."

    "That useless piece of metal is worth so much?!" Yuan Ji was stunned.

    Xue Qianxue interrupted with a chuckle, "Although it may have lost its divine properties as a celestial sword but it is still a former celestial sword. There are many sword cultivators that are willing to spend arge fortune in order toprehend the Dao of the celestial sword for a breakthrough. Moreover when we sold it there is even a wisp of a sword spirit in that sword."

    Yuan Ji was gasping with disbelief, "I should have picked that worthless piece of a metal that day. The rich is getting richer while the poor is getting poorer everyday¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she took out a spatial pouch, "We have decided that you ought to receive a 30%mission since you have a share too."

    Yuan Ji grumbled, "I have already taken my fair amount of share and got a celestial sword on my own. I don''t care about that piece of scrap metal or any high grade spirit stones. Don''t insult the pride of a sword saint with spirit stones."

    "Alright then." Ling Feiyue nodded and kept the pouch.

    Yuan Ji''s rolled his eyes and his heart was hurting with various emotions as he watched Ling Feiyue kept the pouch away. Actually if you insist a little longer that I take it, I will take it¡­

    Goodbye 300,000 high grade spirit stones...

    "Yuan Ji, can you wait a little longer?" Xue Qianxue smiled.

    "I have not fully contracted with this spirit beast yet. It just takes a while only. Then we can be on our way to the Eon Firmament Mountains."

    Yuan Ji nodded, "I can go over that side to take a little nap first."

    "Here, catch this!" Ling Feiyue had suddenly tossed him a spirit talisman as she winked at him. "You are going to need this to spirit bind with your spirit beast too. You can make use of the time to create a spirit bond with Xiaobai.

    Yuan Ji smiled, "There is no need. We are already getting along very well together. There is no need to bind her into a spirit contract with me. Xiaobai is already following me wherever I go."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess said bitterly to herself. "I''m already bonded to you by a ve cor¡­"

    "Moreover in the future when I have decided to sell her, it will cost a bomb to remove the spirit contract. It is better that I leave it this way. Haha."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Yuan Ji had quietly walked behind a thick tree as he sat down.

    He was sighing heavily as he took out the memory stone. If he was not wrong about it then this memory stone contained all his humiliations. Why did the Little Princess return this to him all of a sudden?

    He said to his soul sea, "Xiang Li, stay hidden and don''te out."

    Seeing that Xiang Li did not reply, he guessed that she must be cultivating.

    Actually Xiang Li already knows that he was about to check the memory stone. She was giggling silently as she stayed invisible to him. "I am so curious what it is in there." She loves secrets and had no privacy issues about it.

    With a heavy sigh, Yuan Ji began to rub the memory stone and focused his divine sense into it.

    His divine sense was soon deciphering the images that were inside;

    He saw a short bearded young cultivator and that was his younger self. At that time his beard was not that long and beautiful.

    He seemed to be heavily drunk as he barged into a private room where a stunning maiden with a mesmerizing allure who was sitting on the table drinking all by herself. Standing around her were four other golden celestials.

    The stunning maiden immediately frowned unhappily, "Who is this drunkard? Who let him in? Doesn''t the tavern owner know that we have reserved the entire tavern?"

    Several stewards that were behind Ji Yuan were all scared out of their wits as they stammered for words, "Great Celestials¡­we try to stop him¡­but he is too strong for us¡­he seems to be a fourth realm cultivator¡­"

    He was already banging the table but before he could bang it another time, he was seized by the four golden celestials.

    "Outrageous! How dare you bang the table in front of our Little Princess?" One of the golden celestials shouted at him.

    "Let your servant cripple his cultivation core!"

    "I will just kill him for our Little Princess!"

    Heughed, "All you young masters and young mistresses of the powerful celestial ns are all so haughty. Do you think that you can buy everything with your wealth?! Haha!"

    The stunning maiden frowned lightly, "Let this crazy man go. He seems to have suffered a setback. We shouldn''t let him spoil the mood of this princess."

    "Now scram!" One of the golden celestials shouted as they released him.

    But he had disyed a quick sh with his hands as he took a cup of wine and sshed it into the face of the stunning maiden, grinning drunkenly, "So what if you have four golden celestials? They are not as fast as me¡­"

    "Arghh! Little Princess¡­your servants didn''t protect you well¡­"

    The four golden celestials were all so shocked at what Ji Yuan had done that they were now beating him to the ground with their fists and kicks.

    Little Princess was trembling uncontrobly because this was the first time that someone had ever dare to ssh wine into her face.

    Her jovial mood had suddenly soured immediately and she was staring at Ji Yuan coldly, "What is your name?"

    "Ji Yuan! I will never change my name! My name is Ji Yuan! Do you have the guts to fight me one to one?"

    Little Princess said coldly, "There are fates that are worse than death. Do you think that you can provoke this princess here and get away just like this? Ji Yuan, you will regret the day that you are born!"

    "Let me chop him into eight pieces!" One golden celestial panicky offered.

    "I will skin him alive¡­"

    "I will boil him alive¡­"

    "I will crack all his bones¡­"

    The four golden celestials were panicky now. It was because if their Evil Pce Master were to know that his Little Princess was sshed with wine in her face in front of them, all of them would lose their lives. It did not matter if they were golden celestials or not. The methods of the Evil Cultivation Pce are always cruel.<sub> </sub>

    Worse, they would suffer a fate that was worse than death itself!

    It was not an exaggeration that they were also trembling hard now.

    The only person that was not trembling was Ji Yuan.

    Little Princess was full of indignant as she said coldly, "Get me ten barrels of wines. He dares to ssh this princess face then I will ssh him back! This princess here will make him rue the day that he was born!"

    "Little Princess, we are in the territories of the righteous orthodox sects and we are traveling incognito. It is best that we keep a lower profile. I have heard that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Mystic Profound Pavilion are nearby. Why not give him a clean death?"

    "You dare to question my orders?!" Little Princess said unhappily and there was a killing malevolent air between her eyes.

    The four golden celestials immediately replied, "Your subordinates dare not disobey Little Princess'' orders¡­"

    "Then do it! Get me ten barrels of wine!"

    "Yes¡­yes¡­"

    Little Princess had soon picked him up and said coldly, "You didn''t know that we are surrounded by celestial arrays that can record your foolish acts?"

    With that she had really took the ten barrels of wine and dipped one bowl after another bowl to sh it on his drunken face.

    Yuan Ji was muttering as he interrupted the memory stone, "I have only sshed her once and she is sshing me so many times?! She is too petty¡­"

    All of a sudden he had turned a little ashen, "Wait a minute here. I was the one that had provoked her? She did not capture me while I was drunk?"

    He rubbed on the memory stone again¡­

    There was only Little Princess and him alone now. He was lying on the ground and looking as drunk as ever.

    Little Princess had pped him lightly on his cheek, "I am finally appeased now. It will be better if you are not drunk so that you can witness the humiliation of getting ssh into your face. But it is alright. I know who you are now. You are Ji Yuan, a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    He muttered drunkenly, "That''s right! I am Ji Yuan! The core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect! Come duel with me in the Five Heavens Peaks if you dare! I''m not afraid of you!"

    "You are talking big! You''re just a lowly fourth realm cultivator and you are challenging a saintess? Hehe! You are courting your own death!" Little Princess wasughing heartily. "Mm, he is so funny. What did he say earlier about his background? He is a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of a Sword Saint? Mm, if I lower my profound strength to the fourth realm level, I may even learn a trick or two from his sword arts."

    "On second thought, what if I have identally killed him? I should wait until he is a golden celestial. Cultivators below the fifth realm levels are really weak to handle¡­they can''t regenerate their wounds fast enough for me to torture¡­"

    "Never mind. This princess here shall let you go. After you are back to your sect, I will show you the edited version of what happens here. Naturally the edited version shall contain the version of your humiliations and not mine. Hehe."

    As she said that, she could not resist giving him a hard kick or two.

    He was suddenly aroused from the hard kicks and he was now jumping on her as he hugged her drunkenly, "Don''t leave me¡­that Jin Yilong is not a good guy¡­"

    Little Princess was startled as she kicked him away with a thunderous impact, "Don''t touch me! You badass rascal¡­"

    But before she could finish, he had shed to her again and was hugging her again. "Please don''t leave me¡­"

    Little Princess: ¡­

    Again she kicked him away, "I''m warning you for thest time¡­"

    But again, he had shed like a light to hug her again.

    "This badass cultivator''s lightless profound art is too startling¡­where did he learn it from¡­" Little Princess was stunned.

    Again she kicked him away and this time she had broken his ribs.

    "Heh! This will teach you a lesson for ignoring my warning."

    But once again he had picked himself up and was hugging her. In his drunken state, he could feel no pain whatever so.

    "I am warning you. If you don''t let me go, I shall kill you immediately." She raised her palms forcefully in order to disable him but was soon disappointed that she could not knock him unconsciousness.

    "Where are your upoints?! Stop moving!"

    "I shave off your beard if you continue to hug me like this..."

    Then with a grin, she really did pick up her sword to shave off his beard forcefully.

    But she was soon gasping softly after she hadpletely shaved off his beard, "You have such a handsome face behind your ugly beard. Only ugly men carry a beard so that they will look more handsome but not for you¡­your old sweetheart may not want to leave you if she knows that you got such a pretty face hehe¡­"

    All of a sudden he was forcefully kissing her on her lips and had pinned her down.

    But this time Little Princess did not resist anymore and was kissing him back.

    Soon they were rolling naked on the ground and they were extremely passionate.

    "Ji Yuan, from today onward, you shall apany me till the end of times alright? Do not leave me or I will be heartbroken¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji caught the sight of her bloody undies and was gasping, "Don''t tell me that she is still a chaste maiden when I had taken her?!"

    The memory stone had actually ended here.

    Yuan Ji was trembling hard.

    He had only remembered waking up with injuries all over and was beardless. Whenever Little Princess was around him, she would take out this memory stone to threaten him of his humiliation. But he had not expected that this memory stone actually contained the memories of her humiliation at the same time. She did not edit her humiliations out¡­

    His only impression of that time back was that he was captured by Little Princess and was made into her dual cultivation ve, creating a dark blemish in his Great Dao.

    Turn out that there were several times that Little Princess had actually wanted to let him go but he was too drunk to realize what was going on.

    Come to think of that, although Little Princess was aware of his identity, she had never reallye after him except for that one time when he was chased all over by the ck Hand Guild.

    He had suspected a link between the ck Hand Guild and the Evil Cultivation Pce. Ling Feiyue was actually not the leader of the ck Hand Guild; she was only teasing him. She had found out from a secret source about his past history.

    "Maybe it is not toote to apologize to her?" All of a sudden Yuan Ji had bolted like a lightning.

    "Yuan Ji, where are you going?" the two maidens called out to him when he had suddenly sped off.

    "I''ll be back shortly. I have erm¡­drop something." He shouted back.

    -

    -

    -

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had suddenly said to the two maidens that were behind her. "I have changed my mind. Dress her wounds well. Even though her divine sword is sharp but she is after all, a great saintess and won''t die so easily."

    "Mistress, is that alright? After all, we have spent considerable amount of time before we can nail her."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei inhaled softly, "If she isn''t injured from fighting with the top experts of the three other major orthodox ns, we won''t have such luck. Since she is willing to keep her promise to surrender to me then I ought to be a little merciful."

    Then she muttered, "I have thought that she may attempt to kill Ji Yuan earlier. If so, she would already be dead in my hands by now."

    "Maybe it is not because she doesn''t want to kill Ji Yuan but she couldn''t kill him in her present condition!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei said quietly, "From her eyes, she doesn''t seem to hate Ji Yuan. This, I am very sure. Quickly dress her wounds or she will surely die. Do you want me to do the work myself?"

    "Yes mistress¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    When Yuan Ji had arrived at the ce where hest saw Little Princess, he was disappointed that she was no longer around.

    "Little Princess, where are you?!"

    "Come get me?"

    "Do you dare to fight me?"

    With a heavy heart, he forced himself to turn back.

 Chapter 101 Eon Firmament Mountains (1)

    Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xiaobai were now sitting on the giant Spirit Crane as they took flight from the mountains.

    The terrains of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are mostly mountainous and it is difficult to traverse quickly from one mountainous region to the other.

    The celestials are actually only upying the mountains above the deste mists that nket the mountains like an endless sea of clouds.

    Below the deste mists are uncountable number of deste beasts and it is considered suicidal to go under the deste mists.

    That is why all the more powerful celestial ns have their sects high on the mountain peaks, away from the deste mists. Also the mountain peaks that these powerful celestial ns upy are also rich in spiritual force and are excellent grounds for cultivating.

    When the mountains are rich with spiritual force, this means that the deste force below the deste mists are weak and therefore do not have high ranking deste beasts around, making it safer too to establish the presence of a major celestial n.

    Simrly, if the spiritual force in the mountains are weak then the opposite happens; the deste force below the deste mists will be stronger and will have many high ranking deste beasts and spirit nts.

    Right now they were heading toward the mysterious Eon Firmament Mountains in a hope to see Diviner Mo Ming.

    Along the way, Yuan Ji had a heavy heart.

    It was because he was still thinking of Little Princess. Why did she give him the Memory Stone all of a sudden? He knew that she was being chased by the major orthodox ns and was injured. Was it because she knows that she may not have too long to live?

    All of a sudden he hade to realize that maybe Little Princess'' threats of killing him and wishing him that he was never born was only empty threats to hide her bashful intentions for him.

    For the very first time he was actually quite anxious for her.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was secretly looking at Yuan Ji as she touched his chest with her paws. Although she could not see what was in the memory stone but it seemed to her that when Yuan Ji had returned to look for Little Princess, the killing intent that was disyed earlier by him was no longer there.

    Instead, it was reced by a heavy heart and despair.

    Yuan Ji''s heavy heart was not lost on Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. They had suddenly noticed that Yuan Ji had a gloomy look when he had returned and it did not go away even when they were on the flight now.

    Ling Feiyue turned to smile gently at him, "What did you lost? Is it important? Maybe we can help you to rece it?"

    Xue Qianxue was also looking at him with a lovely smile, "Yes, what is it? Maybe we can help?"

    When Yuan Ji saw the smiles that were on the two beautiful maidens, his heart managed to lighten a little. "It is actually nothing important. I¡­I am just thinking about my duel that will be forting in less than 2 weeks. I am just sad that I will lose the two of you soon."

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "I will join you in theherworld if you die."

    "Don''t be silly. You have just ovee the super rare Purple Lightning Tribtion and you will have a long life as a celestial." Yuan Ji rebuked her lightly.

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes, "This is nothingpared to our three past reincarnations together where you give up your life for me."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, look what have you done to her¡­" Yuan Ji was frowning to Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    Xiang Li pretended to have a pitiful look but she was giggling in secret as evidenced by her soft giggles and trembles.

    Xue Qianxue was now looking firmly at Yuan Ji as she touched her belly, "After I have settled my child, I wille to join the two of you!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Don''t be ridiculous and I won''t die. The Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will find that I am a very hard nut to digest."

    "You mean a hard nut to crack?" Ling Feiyue smiled as she corrected him.

    "No, hard nut to digest because he can''t crack me so he has to swallow me. But in the end I am also indigestible." Yuan Ji said with all seriousness. "So he has to pass me out due to indigestion. Even if he is seventh realm saint, he can''t use his profound energies to digest me so he has to pass me out as poop."

    When a cultivator reaches the fifth realm level and form their golden celestial body, they no longer have to eat and drink so there are no such things as a toiletry system for them. Even if they drink or drink, the food that they consume can be vaporized quickly into energy in their body and the toxic energy expulsed through cultivation.

    That was why tricks that worked against the lower realm cultivators like poisons are no longer effective against golden celestials.

    All their profound life energies are derived by cultivating the spiritual force that are in the air much like the deste beasts that depend upon the deste force below the deste mists.

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Even the Abyssal Null Goddess was staring at the vulgarities that were mouthed by Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue murmured, "Yuan Ji, this is so crude. Can you not usenguages like this?"

    "It is too vulgar." Ling Feiyue agreed. "Even unorthodox cultivators don''t talk like this."

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly. Actually everyone talks like this. It is only the upper ss cultivators that don''t¡­

    But he decided to keep his mouth shut and did not share his thoughts with them.

    "Xiang Li, there is nothing wrong with my talk, right?<sub> </sub>

    "Yea! Nothing wrong at all." Xiang Li replied happily.

    ? "Xiang Li, you are truly my only confidant. Haha." Yuan Jiughed.

    "That''s right! That''s why we are able to divine harmony with each other. Hehe." Xiang Li answered him.

    "So, when are you going to do your banging again? I need some entertainment."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I need to sit down to talk to you. Why are you so vulgar?" Yuan Ji growled.

    "I am vulgar?" Xiang Li answered, not understanding.

    "That is right." Yuan Li coughed before he said with great seriousness. "Ahem. I don''t me you because you have no idea of the intricate rtionships between men and women here. First all, we are all people of culture here¡­"

    All in all, he spent about thirty minutes to exin to Xiang Li.

    Finally he asked, "So do you understand now? In short, these are taboos! You should not freely mention things like this."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Xiang Lipletely understands! So when are you going to bang hard next?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I think you havepletely missed my point here¡­"

    "I didn''t mention directly now and I am indirectly about it. Isn''t that what you have said earlier?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Then what should I say?" Xiang Li asked him curiously.

    "You should ask when I am free to do it." Yuan Ji reprimanded her gently. "This is more discreet."

    "Oh¡­" Xiang Li muttered. "So when are you free to do it?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "That''s right. That is how you ask me. Haha. As soon as we touch down on this stupid bird, I will bang them hard."

    "YES!!!" Xiang Li pped her hands with delight.

    All of a sudden Xiang Li was muttering to herself. "This doesn''t sound right somewhere? Did he just use the word bang directly?"

    -

    -

    -

    The Spirit Crane is a spirit flying beast that can fly ten times faster than a griffon flying beast, five times faster than a lightning eagle and its speed is secondary only to a phoenix.

    In just a single day they had already reached the majestic views of the Eon Firmament Mountains as thousands of mythical birds and floating inds appeared in front of them.

    "This ce is so beautiful¡­" Ling Feiyue was gasping. I have heard that this ce is as close as the immortal realm as it can get."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess yawned silently. The Immortal Realm is much more beautiful!

    Yuan Ji was looking at the terrain below closely before he said, "What the heck? This mountain range isn''t connected to any other mountains and it is surrounded by deste mists."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "That is right. The only way to reach this mountain range is to mount a flying beast to it. Diviner Mo Ming is said to stay in one of the floating inds around the tallest peak."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "Which floating inds? There are so many¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a thunderous voice that was echoing in the air that was directed at them. "LEAVE THIS PLACE or YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO LEAVE ALIVE!!!"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Here you go. We just have to follow this voice."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Erm, Qianxue. Do you think that it is wiser for us to heed to this warning?" Yuan Ji put forth a word of caution. After all, only a caution hero would live long. "I can sense that this ce is surrounded by powerful defensive arrays and formations. It is dangerous for us to continue further."

    Xue Qianxue winked at him, "You got only less than two weeks to live. Why do you still need to be so cautious for?"

    Yuan Ji frowned, "I am only cautious for the sake of the two of you¡­"

    "Go forward. Full speed!" Xue Qianxue urged her Spirit Crane forward,pletely ignoring Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

 Chapter 102 Eon Firmament Mountains (2)

    As the Spirit Crane flew with great speed forward, Yuan Ji could see that multiple spiritual arrays were now activating and were shooting beams of profound energies at them.

    He spotted more than ten spiritual arrays and he was stunned.

    It is because spiritual arrays are often powered by one or more precious heavenly relics which are extremely rare to obtain. And superior heavenly relics can be used to forge divine swords.

    This Diviner Mo Ming is really a rich cultivator!

    These profound energies beams were actually not that powerful but could knock them down the bottomless abyss below and that was something that Yuan Ji did not want to see.

    Yuan Ji had already drawn his sword as he stood up. "Feiyue, hold me steady. Qianxue, guide the Spirit Crane."

    "Yuan Ji, what are you doing?" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were both gasping at the same time.

    "I will be alright. Don''t worry."

    Yuan closed his eyes for a while as he concentrated on his divine sense.

    When he opened his eyes again, he began to inhale softly as he raised his celestial sword with his right hand.

    This was not lost on Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. It was because they had already noticed that whenever Yuan Ji was using his right sword arm, he was really serious. Therefore they did not dare to disturb him or break his concentration.

    Yuan Ji was saying silently, "Now that I am a middle tier saint, I should be able to use my Major Heavens Sword to the Eighth level. The realm of the physical sword energy¡­"

    His old master had once told him that if he is lucky to reach the seventh realm middle sacred saint level in the future, he will be able to practice the Eighth Level of the Major Heavens Sword. However there is a little problem with it. The cultivator will have to cultivate behind closed doors for decades or even centuries toprehend the sword energy physical form. It is because sword energies do not have any physical form at all!

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin as he did ast minuteprehension. "I saw Lu Qingyun disying the physical sword energies form. It doesn''t look so difficult. He is insanely fast with his swords. But I am not slow either."

    He had suddenly raised his sword with all his speed and profound energies that he could muster and the afterimages of his sword had shed forth into a beam of profound energies that was directed at them.

    When the afterimages of his sword had touched the profound energies, it had shattered the beam of profound energies into nothingness!

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were startled when they saw the afterimages of his sword flying forth. Even without asking Yuan Ji, they knew what it was. It is said that the ultimate form of sword energy is the restoration of its physical form. When the physical form is formed, it is able to travel much further and is more condensed with profound energies.

    That was why Yuan Ji was able to send his sword energies flying out to meet the iing profound energies without causing his sword energies to dissipate into the air. And this was aplished without the aid of a powerful celestial array!

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "It isn''t too difficult after all. I have Brother Lu Qingyun to thank for."  He had quietly observed Lu Qingyun during the trial.

    He was soon releasing one afterimage after another of his celestial sword into the iing beams of profound energies, all with uncanny precision and imploding the offensive profound energies into nothingness.

    Xue Qianxue muttered, "Our lord is so awesome¡­"

    Ling Feiyue beamed with pride as she looked up at Yuan Ji from his back, "Yes he is¡­" She was feeling extremely blissed to have shared this lifetime with him again. She was determined not to let him go this time.

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly caught sight of the mncholy look that was on Ling Feiyue and she was a little anxious.

    It was because she seemed to understand what Ling Feiyue was thinking.

    They were actually thinking of the same thing. They will not dishonor their lord Yuan Ji from his duel. But they can choose to challenge the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce before him!

    If they can exhaust or deal a heavy injury to the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce ahead of the duel then the odds of Yuan Ji winning the duel will also increase!

    Even without thinking about this, the two of them were already in line with this strategic n.

    However they stillck a little confidence to pull this off. If Saintess Fang Zhenfei will be willing to join them then their odds will definitely be better. However when they had met her on her profound ship, she had rejected them immediately even without allowing them to enter into discussion with her.

    Xue Qianxue sighed in her heart, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei or Xia Jiajia whatever your real name is, you are too smart. How can there be anyone as smart as you in the entire cultivation fraternity? You saw through our ns even before we had opened our mouths and rebuked us."<sub> </sub>

    Actually Ling Feiyue was also thinking the same at this moment. "If Xia Jiajia loves Yuan Ji, why doesn''t she offer to help us? Is her mission more important than Yuan Ji? Maybe she is truly smart and is only striving to be an immortal in the future. Maybe in her heart, we are just her bad karma. She is too rational, too intelligent, too calcting and too¡­cold hearted¡­"

    Xue Qianxue continued to sigh, "If Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo is still alive to support us, we may still stand a little chance¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had secretly stolen a nce at Xue Qianxue before she said silently, "I have brought the information regarding the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. It is said that Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce always have two great saint elders by his side as well as ten saintesses as his protectors. Just me alone is not sufficient and Yuan Ji doesn''t want me to use my influence as sect leader of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to help him. I can''t risk Sister Qianxue too. She is with child. Therefore I have to do it myself."

    Quietly she had already formted a most daring n. Before their duel, she would offer herself to the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. When she was near him then she would assassinate him!

    Yuan Ji had suddenly shouted, "All clear! We are safe now!"

    p The Spirit Crane had sped past the shooting range of the celestial arrays and they hadnded on the floating ind where the warning was given from.</anda>

    Immediately after they hadnded, a dozen golden celestials and a hundred cultivators had quickly surrounded them with their swords.

    There were soft murmurs among them when they saw how graceful the two veil maidens were when they had alighted from their Spirit Crane.

    Many of the female cultivators were now giggling softly when they saw Yuan Ji.

    But many were also astonished at the sight of a nine-tail spirit fox that was following Yuan Ji.

    An elderly golden celestial had stepped forward to say coldly, "You have ignored our warnings and dare to step into our forbidden conve. Please leave now or we won''t be polite to you."

    Xue Qianxue had immediately stepped forward and said politely, "Great Celestials, we have apanied our lord here to seek an audience with Diviner Mo Ming. Please, we have something important for him to divine."

    The elderly golden celestial hummed coldly, "Our master will not see anyone anytime soon. He is in his cultivation retreat now. So please leave!"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled as she danced a little as she tiptoed forward. She was really enthralling and many of the cultivators were mesmerized by her small giggles. They were all thinking that behind her veil, she must be a great beauty.

    She winked at the elderly golden celestial as she giggled, "Maybe just for a little while, please!"

    Yuan Ji who was watching her, was quite amused. She must be trying to use her charms to seek an audience with Diviner Mo Ming. Unfortunately she is not Little Princess and she did not know any Bewitching Profound Arts. Even her natural charms will surely fail against this elderly golden celestial.

    One look and Yuan Ji can tell that this elderly golden celestial is a great man of culture and a highly enlightened celestial who is immune to honey traps. Moreover this elderly golden celestial was being surrounded by so many celestials. He will surely lose a lot of his own faces if he even hesitates about turning away Xue Qianxue.

    He was not the only ones who were feeling amused. Almost all the cultivators around him were all feeling amused and were all giggling.

    The elderly golden celestial blinked his eyes many times before he replied to Xue Qianxue, "Alright. I will make an exception this time. Come with me."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    After Yuan Ji had heard him, he was rolling his eyes with shock. When did Xue Qianxue''s cuteness level be so formidable that she can charm such a highly enlightened golden celestial?!

    Even the other cultivators and golden celestials were all shocked, "This¡­this¡­what is going on¡­"

    Ling Feiyue also stunned as she looked helplessly at Xue Qianxue and was wondering what was going on¡­

    Xue Qianxue pped her hands and was giggling with great delight. "Thank you. You''re so kind!"

    Yuan Ji was left to stammer almost incoherently, "I can''t believe it. I really can''t believe it¡­"

 Chapter 103 Eon Firmament Mountains (3)

    The elderly golden celestial took them to their vige and they could see many bamboo huts. There were no fanciful buildings or pces in this ce.

    He soon said to his fellow cultivators, "You can all go back first."

    "Yes Elder Mo Bei."

    The other golden celestials and cultivators were all quite respectful to him as they replied politely to him. It seemed that he had the highest status in the group.

    It was only then that Yuan Ji knows that the name of this elderly golden celestial was Mo Bei.

    Yuan Ji thought that it was impolite not to introduce himself so he said, "Elder Mo Bei, I am Yuan Ji¡­"

    "Qianxue, why are you here?" Elder Mo Bei had turned to Xue Qianxue with an unhappy frown. "Do you know that everyone is looking for you?"

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were startled secretly. This Elder Mo Bei actually knows Qianxue?!

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly, "Not everyone. At least not my Patriarch Uncle Mo Bei, heh!"

    "He is your Patriarch Uncle?" Yuan Ji was startled.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "That is right. Patriarch Uncle, this is my sister Ling Feiyue. We are both tied to our lord Yuan Ji here."

    When Elder Mo Bei had heard Xue Qianxue pleading with him with the phrase ''Maybe just for a little while, please!'', he had immediately recognized her. It was because she had often used this catchphrase in the past when she was talking with him.

    Elder Mo Bei was startled. He stroked his long beard as he stared unhappily at Yuan Ji, "You lucky bastard. You have actually stolen the hearts of the two greatest peerless maidens in the entire fraternity."

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Junior here greets Patriarch Uncle."

    "Unfortunately, you seem to be a beardless ugly fellow. Poor you. You must have lost your beard during your bodily transformation. You must know that a real man is only a true man if he has his beard. Only then can his Dao heart beplete."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Isn''t this his old catchphrase?

    He muttered awkwardly, "One of these days, I will surely be able to regrow my beard. All I need is to find a divine remedy from a well-known alchemist."

    Elder Mo Beiughed as he patted Yuan Ji on his shoulder, "Good! At least you have not lost your manly spirit yet. I like you!"

    Yuan Jiughed too, "I am beginning to miss my beautiful long beard. Say, Elder Mo, your beard is indeed beautiful. How did you maintain it?"

    Elder Mo Bei said with great pride, "Hahaha. I like you and I will be d to share it with you¡­"

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly interrupted them unhappily, "Hmph! We are here to discuss business and not about any ugly beards!"

    Elder Mo Bei, Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji protested weakly, "We are only chatting to break the ice between us¡­"

    "You can talk about anything except beards." Ling Feiyue interrupted with her gentle voice as she shot Yuan Ji a warning look. "Don''t forget your matrimony vows!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He had suddenly remembered when they had bowed down below the heavens and earth to be unison as one, he was not supposed to mention his beard or entertain any lofty thoughts of getting his beard back again.

    "Wait a minute. That is supposed to be the opposite! I take them as my consorts and they are supposed to follow my rules!" Yuan Ji was frowning silently. "Howe their rules are still effective against me? Didn''t we have a gentleman''s agreement? This is a blow to my alpha male pride¡­I need to speak to them privatelyter on this."

    Then he turned to Elder Mo Bei with a grin, "Elder Mo, since we are getting along so well then maybeter we can have a little talk together?"

    Elder Mo Bei was suddenly not as cold to Yuan Ji as earlier. He had suddenly found out that this beardless young man was actually quite humbled and polite!

    Moreover he was also willing to learn his beard growing tricks!

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Elder Mo Beiughed jovially, "I like you, young man. But why is that I found your name to be a little familiar?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Is that so? I didn''t know that I am so renowned¡­"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted sarcastically, "He is that Yuan Ji who is supposed to duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Elder Mo Bei inhaled deeply as he stared nkly at Yuan Ji with a loud gasp, "You are that idiot Yuan Ji that everyone is talking about?"

    Actually the vige was not big and there were still many cultivators around plus Elder Mo Bei old voice was actually quite loud. Now when he was gasping loudly, almost everyone that could be seen could hear him loud and clear.

    When he had said that, everyone else was gasping and muttering like wildfire, "Did you hear that? He is actually that idiot Yuan Ji that we are all talking about recently!"

    "I''m so thankful that I got my wish to see that face of that idiotic man¡­"

    "Actually he is quite dashing¡­"

    "He is only a beautiful vase¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "You call that beardless man a handsome man? He is still drinking milk!"

    "I thought that Yuan Ji is a manly cultivator who dares to challenge the Divine Pce Master but he is actually just a beardless cultivator¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He began to stammer feebly, "Elder Mo, please don''t get the facts wrong. I didn''t challenge the Divine Pce Master. He is the one that has challenged me¡­"

    "Everyone knows that you have stolen from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Look at you. Stealing is bad enough and you have to steal from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Seriously, I don''t know what tricks that you have used to steal the heart of my niece Qianxue. Maybe I am wrong in you. You are nothing but a rascal!"

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue feebly said, "Patriarch Uncle, we are still in public. Don''t talk so loudly. s, don''t say anymore. We''re actually here to see Patriarch Great-Grandfather."

    Elder Mo Bei said, "Your Patriarch Great-Grandfather Mo Ming won''t see anyone so easily. Moreover he is truly in his cultivation retreat. Why don''t you stay in this vige first while I inform him?"

    Xue Qianxue said politely, "Alright. Thank you Patriarch Uncle."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue were now looking curiously at Xue Qianxue and there was a little surprise on their faces.

    Yuan Ji stammered, "Divine Mo Ming is your Patriarch Great-Grandfather?"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "That is right!"

    Yuan Ji was now frowning, "No wonder you say you have a way to see Divine Mo Ming. Now I know why."

    Elder Mo Bei had turned to look at Ling Feiyue with a wary look, "You''re really Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue?"

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly as she returned a steady gaze.

    "I have heard that you have kidnapped my niece here and now¡­" He turned to look at Yuan Ji once again with a cold look. "And now, she has married this dying man here. I believe that the two of you have better give me a good exnation. It is because I am actually not pleased with it."

    Then he pointed at the cultivators around him. "And my Mo n will also be not happy about it!"

    Yuan Ji was smiling awkwardly. This old man sure can change his face quite fast¡­

    Xue Qianxue gave an exasperated sigh, "Patriarch Uncle! You have misunderstood! Your Qianxue has followed them willingly! In fact I was a prisoner at the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Elder Mo Bei was startled, "What is going on here?"

    Xue Qianxue said quietly, "It is a long story. When I see Patriarch Great-Grandfather and the other elders, Qianxue shall exin. Alright?"

    Elder Mo Bei turned to stare at Yuan Ji, "Beardless young man, do you know that my Qianxue is a middle-tier saintess? In what way are you fit to be with her?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "I am now a great saintess."

    Elder Mo Bei was startled, "Really?"

    He was soonughing heartily, "My niece is definitely a genius among geniuses!"

    Then he was suddenly startled as he stared at Yuan Ji, "You mean you have taken two great saintesses as your consorts? Who exactly are you?"

    This time round Yuan Ji was grinning with pride. He was extremely prideful that he got two peerless maidens who were also great saintesses as his consorts.

    So he replied proudly, "I am actually Sword Saint Ji Yuan¡­"

    Elder Mo Bei had suddenly roared with rage, "You are Ji Yuan! Everyone! Take him down!"

    Immediately all the nearby cultivators had unsheathed their swords!

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were all startled, "What is going on?"

    Elder Mo Bei thundered, "He is an enemy of the orthodox fraternity! He had killed Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and many other heroes of the orthodox fraternity.

    Elder Mo Bei had immediately disyed his profound aura and his animus had proimed him as a great saint!

    Behind him were several bursts of strong profound animus as well, indicating that there were as many as six saints and thirty supremacies!

    Hundreds of swords were now pointing in their direction.

    Yuan Ji was stunned. This vige actually had so many cultivator experts!

    Even the inconspicuous cksmith and a weak schr that they had passed by earlier had an aura of a middle-tier saint!

    When everyone was disying their profound animus, there were more saints'' profound signatures that were bursting forth from beyond their line of sight!

 Chapter 104 Diviner Mo Ming

    Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly as he looked at the hundreds of swords that were pointing at him, "Elder Mo Bei, you can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words. You can use me of killing the rest but you can''t use me of killing Saintess Yuluo!"

    Elder Mo Bei said coldly, "Why is that so?"

    Yuan Jimented loudly, "That is because she is my beloved consort!"

    Elder Mo Bei roared withughter, "You didn''t know that Saintess Yuluo is unmarried? Do you think I am such a gullible person?"

    "This is true. Saintess Yuluo is my lord''s consort. Although they are not officially together but they already have a son together."

    Elder Mo Bei had turned ashen as he lowered his voice, "Qianxue, this is a nderous thing to say. You can eat the wrong food but you cannot say the wrong words!"

    Xue Qianxue said firmly, "Qianxue dares not lie in front of Patriarch Uncle. I swear by my soul sea!"

    Elder Mo Bei decided to put that aside first and said, "Do you know that Elder Wu Heng and Eldest Young Master Zhan Long are all killed by him not long ago?"

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Really? This is impossible¡­"

    Yuan Ji was startled that this little isted ce actually got the news so quickly. Although this may look like a reclusive conve, they seemed to be well-connected to the rest of the celestial fraternity.

    So he said, "Yes, I killed them one or two day ago while I was near Amber Frost City." He knew that they were killed by Little Princess and there were witnesses. But if the orthodox cultivators wanted to use him as such, there was nothing he could say to defend himself. After all, no one would care for his opinion.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were startled as they looked at Yuan Ji, "Really? How did it happen?"

    Yuan Ji exined, "They were chasing after me because they wanted to have my Xiaobai. Saint Wu Heng bears a grudge against me while we are at the Lotus Sword Mansion Trial."

    Elder Mo Bei turned to say to Xue Qianxue, "Look! Did you hear that? He is an enemy of the entire orthodox fraternity. He is the Sword Demon Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Leave him alone. I will see them now." A gentle voice floated down upon the mountains, interrupting Elder Mo Bei.

    Elder Mo Bei and the many cultivators around were all gasping, "It is our Great Patriarch, Diviner Mo Ming!"

    "Huh? Isn''t Diviner Mo Ming still in his reclusion?"

    "Why will he see Sword Demon Ji Yuan?"

    "Maybe Diviner Mo Ming is thinking of executing Ji Yuan himself?"

    "Such a wicked cultivator¡­we shouldn''t allow him to soil our consecrate ground¡­"

    The gentle voice echoed, "From this day onward, this Ji Yuan is under the divine protection of the Mo n. Do not tell anyone that he has been here."

    Elder Mo Bei stammered, "Divine protection of the Mo n?!"

    This was a protection of the highest level and that mean that this Ji Yuan was to be treated with utmost respect!

    "Since our Patriarch has said so, we should all put down our swords¡­"

    "Diviner Mo Ming has the power of foresight and he can tell the future. If he says we are to protect him then it cannot be wrong."

    Xue Qianxue was secretly relieved as she took a look at Yuan Ji, "You didn''t tell us about Saint Wu Heng and Saint Zhan Long!"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I am nning to share soon. Haha¡­"

    Elder Mo Bei was suddenlyughing and patting Yuan Ji on his back, "Haha, junior. I hope that you didn''t get a fright. You can''t trust anyone these days and we are just trying to make sure that you don''t have any ill-intentions against us."

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes with a quick thought; he sure can change his face pretty fast¡­

    But he quicklyughed, "It is only a misunderstanding. Haha."

    "Follow to me to see our Great Patriarch."

    -

    -

    -

    Elder Mo Bei had led Yuan Ji and his group deep into the mountains that were surrounded by waterfalls and many spirit nts. Behind Mo Bei were also several golden celestials that were escorting them.

    Along the way they continued to chat.

    "Erm, Elder Mo Bei. Do you know that if we are unlucky then your celestial arrays will have killed your niece Qianxue?" Yuan Ji asked him curiously.

    Elder Mo Bei frowned slightly, "She didn''t tell you that she knows that the celestial arrays here are arranged ording to the five elements and she knows how to evade the celestial arrays?"

    "No¡­" Yuan Ji murmured slowly as he stole a look at Xue Qianxue.

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "You didn''t ask so I didn''t tell you. Since you want to show off, I just have to let you show off a little."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    A whileter, they hade to a bamboo hut that was floating on top of a smallke and the scenery around was really enchanting.

    Yuan Ji noticed that the spiritual aura around theke was extremely rich and was perfect for cultivating.

    An old man with white hair and long beard was sitting in a meditation pose inside the hut.

    Yuan Ji first impression of this old man was that he looked like a sagely old man and he was actually filled with a little awe. He had heard of Diviner Mo Ming before and it was said that he had a good chance to ascend as an immortal.

    When Elder Mo Ming and the other golden celestials saw him, they respectfully greeted him. "Great Patriarch!"<sub> </sub>

    Xue Qianxue immediately loosened her veil and chuckled delightfully, "Patriarch Great-Grandfather!"

    Diviner Mo Mingughed when he saw her, "Isn''t this my great grand-niece Qianxue? So, you are only here because you are in trouble?"

    Xue Qianxueughed softly, "Patriarch Great-Grandfather only knows how to tease Qianxue! You obviously know why I havee."

    "You are a great saintess now? This is really a surprise to me. So tell me about your lightning tribtion."

    "Heh! I had ovee a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion!" Xue Qianxue said proudly.

    "What?!" Diviner Mo Ming was startled and he was blinking his eyes, "You had actually ovee a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion?!"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "That is right. But I had help from my lord Ji Yuan and my Sister Feiyue here. The three of us had ovee the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning together."

    When she had said that, everyone in the hut were stunned...

    Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtions are extremely difficult to encounter and it only appears if the cultivator is worthy of it.

    Diviner Mo Ming was a little speechless as he took a second look at Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue, "This is so unbelievable. I am actually witnessing a miracle in the three of you..."

    Then he stroked his long white beard as he said to them, "I actually didn''t have any visitors for a long time. I am actually preparing for my eventually ascension so it is actually a bad idea for me to reveal too many of the heavens'' secrets."

    All of a sudden he had a startled expression when his divine sense had touched the nine-tail spirit fox behind Yuan Ji. Although he had already noticed this spirit fox earlier but when his divine sense had touched it gently, he actually received a shock; it was because this nine-tail silver fox''s soul sea is extremely unfathomable!

    Even with his superb divine sense, he cannot tell how deep this nine-tail silver fox soul sea is. He has really never seen anything like this in his long celestial life!

    "This fox¡­belongs to who?" Diviner Mo Ming started to say.

    Xue Qianxue answered politely, "Xiaobai is Ji Yuan''s spirit beast."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "That is right. But if you are willing to offer me a good price, I can sell Xiaobai to you."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Elder Mo Bei interrupted with a softugh, "Actually I can offer you a good price. Junior, since we get along so well with each other, maybe you can consider me a friendship price?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Sure, sure! Haha."

    Diviner Mo Ming interrupted gently, "This spirit fox seems to have an affinity with Ji Yuan. You should not try to sell it."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin to ponder, "You mean Xiaobai has a chance of evolving into a divine beast for me to sellter? If I sell it now, I may be making a loss?"

    "You''re right. If Xiaobai evolves into a divine beast then her fur will be bigger and more beautiful." Yuan Ji immediately cupped his hands, "I thank Diviner Mo for this piece of excellent advice!"

    Diviner Mo Ming, Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming shook his head weakly before he turned to ask Xue Qianxue, "Qianxue, why are you here?"

    Xue Qianxue answered politely, "I wish for Patriarch Great Grandfather to divine for Yuan Ji and to help open the Dream Trial for him."

    When she had mentioned the Dream Trial, all the other elders in the hut were all gasping with shock.

    Elder Mo Bei said gravely, "Qianxue, do you know how difficult and costly the Dream Trial is? It is only reserved for the most talented of our prot¨¦g¨¦s and not for an outsider. Opening a single Dream Trial will easily deplete five hundred years of our n''s cultivation resources!"

    Ling Feiyue was gasping. This was the first time that she had heard of this Dream Trial. She knows that the Mo n is rich and she cannot imagine how much cultivation resources are going to be depleted for their five hundred years!

    "It is no wondered everyone thates to Divine Mo Ming for divination has to pay a hefty cost in cultivation resources¡­" she muttered silently.

    Yuan Ji was frowning. Qianxue did not tell him about any Dream Trial beforehand.

    "I thought that we are only here for a divination?"

    Diviner Mo Ming said quietly, "Give me a day to think about the Dream Trial."

    Then he smiled to Yuan Ji, "For Qianxue sake, I will make an exceptional for you. You can only ask me a single question. The question has to be rted to yourself and not the others. You may ask now."

    Xue Qianxue had turned to say to Yuan Ji with a woeful look, "Ask my Patriarch Great-Grandfather on the oue of your duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply before he said, "I have a duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce in less than two weeks'' time. I like to know what are my odds of defeating him with my current strength?"

    Diviner Mo Ming nodded quietly.

    All of a suddenly there was a golden animus that was exuding from Divine Mo Ming. It was so bright that it blinded everyone.

    Yuan Ji could feel that there was a tremendous amount of spiritual force that was building up in the hut.

    After a while, the light disappeared and Diviner Mo Ming appeared to be extremely drained as he moved his fingers rapidly before saying quietly to Yuan Ji. "In all the future possibilities, I don''t see you having a single chance at all."

    Yuan Ji was stunned¡­

    He had actually believed that he had stood a chance¡­

    All of a sudden, he did not want to die¡­

    Even Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were stunned¡­

    Xue Qianxue was brimming with tears and her lovely voice had turned hoarse. "It is alright. Since we already know the future, we can avoid it by not going for the duel¡­"

    "I am going." Yuan Ji interrupted as he said firmly. "It is my Dao as Sword Saint not to back off from an agreed duel."

 Chapter 105 The Model Cultivator

    Soon they had left Diviner Mo Ming''s abode with Elder Mo Bei.

    Usually when people know what their future demise is, they will be extremely demoralized.

    But not Yuan Ji.

    He was because he still stubbornly believes that he had a fighting chance.

    He had always taught his favorite and leading prot¨¦g¨¦ Ye Chengxi never to give up. If you do not try, how do you know?

    Yuan Ji did not have any double standard on this. Moreover he is also fueled by his undying fighting spirit.

    He was actually thinking, "Maybe Diviner Mo Ming did not try hard enough because he was not willing to expend more spiritual force in the divination. After all, he is trying to preserve his soul sea for his eventual ascension as immortal. Therefore he did not take into ount the terrain, weather and my divine state to give an urate reading."

    "That must be it¡­" After feeding himself the ginseng chicken tonic to psycho himself, he felt very much at ease already.

    He really got a strong heart!

    After praising himself, he was back to his usual self again.

    Ling Feiyue asked him, "You¡­are really not anxious about your forting duel?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Of course not. The Diviner Mo Ming has actually dropped me a hint that I won''t die."

    "Oh?!" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue eximed with surprise at the same time.

    Yuan Ji pointed at Xiaobai and said, "Didn''t he say that I have an affinity with Xiaobai? If Xiaobai isn''t a divine beast yet then I surely won''t die!"

    Ling Feiyue muttered softly, "I don''t feel that way¡­"

    "My great-grandfather didn''t say Xiaobai will be a divine beast at all." Xue Qianxue said weakly.

    Yuan Ji smiled at them, "If the hint is so easy to pick up then it won''t be a heavens'' secrets. Haha."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess muttered silently; I am a fake spirit beast you know. So I can never be a divine beast¡­

    Yuan Ji picked up Xiaobai and said to the two maidens with a grin, "Trust me. Our Xiaobai will surely be a divine beast in the future."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    Elder Mo Bei said to Yuan Ji and his group, "Since you have to wait for a day more before Great Patriarch can answer you on your request, why don''t you give an instruction or two to the young cultivators first?"

    Yuan Ji had no issue about it so he agreed immediately.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had no issue about it as well as they nodded.

    "So what is your cultivation specialty? Alchemy, herbs, pills concocting, arrays, celestial history?" Elder Mo Bei asked them curiously.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "None of the above¡­"

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were also smiling weakly as they shook their head lightly.

    Elder Mo Bei frowned as he gave them a perplexed look, "Serious? What are your hobbies?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Going to the trials!"

    Ling Feiyue smiled alluringly, "Roaming the fraternity¡­"

    "Bathing..." Xue Qianxue shyly answered.

    Elder Mo Bei: ¡­

    Are they good-for-nothing cultivators that only know how to cultivate but know nothing else?

    "I am a pure sword cultivator. Haha." Yuan Jiughed, totally unashamed of his iplete cultivation knowledge. "I can guide the prot¨¦g¨¦s if they are weak in their swordy."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "I know a little array. Rank 1 array¡­"

    Elder Mo Bei felt that he was going to faint now.

    He had thought that they may be able to give some insights on the more advance cultivation subjects like arrays, alchemy, medicine, pills concocting, talisman, beasts taming etc. But it turned out that they know nuts about it.

    "Actually we don''t need you to teach them about swordy or profound arts." Elder Mo Bei was sighing. "Junior Ji Yuan,ter I will arrange for you to teach the low level cultivators about cultivation practices. I''m sure you will have no issue for that."

    "As for Qianxue and Maiden Feiyue, the two of you can go sightseeing for the day."

    When Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue heard Elder Mo Bei, they were delighted and were nodding eagerly. Their reactions werepletely different from their dull expressions earlier.

    Yuan Ji grinned at Elder Mo Bei, "Don''t worry. I will make sure that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of your Mo n benefit from my insights. Over the years, I have trained countless number of excellent high level cultivators."

    Elder Mo Bei asked him curiously, "How many golden celestials have you trained?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Only one. Fairy Ye Chengxi. I am sure that you have heard of her? This year, she is a fifth realm golden celestial. Haha."

    Elder Mo Bei: ¡­

    Only one and you are so happy about it? I have trained over a hundred golden celestials in my lifetime as master!

    Yuan Ji smiled and said like a great man of wisdom, "It is not the number of golden celestials that show your ability to be a good cultivation master. Quality is better than quantity. Do you know that I have trained Fairy Ye Chengxi so well that she is now a Sword Saintess?"

    Elder Mo Bei frowned sarcastically, "I have heard that she had be a Sword Saintess while you were not around."

    "That is because I have given her a good solid foundation hence even if I am not around, she is still able to be a Sword Saintess." Yuan Ji said proudly.

    Elder Mo Bei, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Elder Mo Bei smiled, "I have heard that you have another core prot¨¦g¨¦. What is her name? Shangguan Yan? She is only a fourth realm cultivator and is quite limited in talent. How do you exin that?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin before he said shamelessly, "My Yan''Er idolizes me so much that she is spending too much time on her swordy. She really ought to spend more time on her cultivation. s. Is it because I am too dashing and awesome? It is too sinful. I will reprimand her when I am back."

    Elder Mo Bei: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Abyssal Null Goddess and Xiang Li: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Later in the day, Yuan Ji had entered a ssroom of mostly first and second realm cultivators.

    The instant he had entered into the ssroom, he noticed that these young cultivators were an unruly lot and were all chatting noisily. There were about forty of them and they were mostly aged between eight to twenty years of age.

    In the cultivation fraternity, first and second realm cultivators are known as practitioners and master practitioners. The first realm is when cultivators first begin to cultivate the spiritual force as they attempted to expand the boundaries of their soul seas.

    Almost all the celestials start at the first realm and Yuan Ji is also not an exception. There are some cultivators that are born Xiantian and they have the benefit to start at the third cultivation realm enlighten celestial level.<sub> </sub>

    When Yuan Ji entered the ssroom, he was a little startled that the age group of this ss had so much disparity. It was because in most celestial ns, prot¨¦g¨¦s are grouped into three tiers; the outer, inner and core prot¨¦g¨¦s. And usually those who are from the same age group are seeded together. It is to create a bonding for them.

    No one bothered to greet him and there were many that even gave him a disdainful look...

    "I am Saint Ji Yuan, a cultivator from the Emperor Hall Sect¡­" he quickly introduced himself.

    Amidst the unruly noises, he asked them a few questions and learnt that the Mo n did not have so many prot¨¦g¨¦s. They were simply grouped into the same ss because they were all first and second realm cultivators. Moreover this was the ss for them to learn cultivation theories.

    "s." Yuan Ji muttered silently. "This makes sense. Cultivation theories are open to everyone so it doesn''t matter what is their age group. Elder Mo Bei is really kind to me and gives me an easy subject to lecture on."

    Soon he began to teach them the basic principle of cultivations.

    Again, few bothered to pay him scant attention.

    After a while some of the older cultivators in the group were allughing at him, "Celestial Teacher, all these are too basic. Why don''t you teach us something new?"

    Yuan Ji immediately frowned. This was a direct challenge to his authority!

    If it was in the Orthodox Sword Sect, this sort of thing would never happen!

    One of the cultivators said, "The Emperor Hall Sect is but a minor celestial n. How do you ensure that we can cultivate at the fastest speed in order to quickly reach the top?"

    "Cultivation must be slow and steady in order to ensure a solid foundation. This is nothing new at all! We want to hear something fresh and new!"

    Yuan Ji was frowning deeply now. He was none the pleased that these rebellious cultivators were looking down upon his celestial n.

    Another cultivator shouted, "Cultivating is an endless sea of suffering. After you cultivate, you have to breakthrough and when you breakthrough, you have to cultivate again. After you cultivate to the fifth realm level, you have to face the life and death tribtions. Again, it is endless cultivation. How do you break the endless samsara cycle of cultivation?"

    "How many years did you cultivate to be a golden celestial?"

    "How long did you cultivate to be a seventh realm saint?"

    These cultivators obviously believe that they could cultivate to be a saint earlier than Yuan Ji and they were all proud sons and daughters of the heavens.

    Yuan Ji said slowly, "You know what. Actually cultivation is not everything."

    When he had said that, everyone wasughing.

    Some were even rolling on the ground as theyughed uncontrobly.

    "If cultivation is not everything, then why are we cultivating?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "In case you may not know this. I am a saint that sits atop of all the other saints. It is because I had ovee the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion which is s, can only descend upon someone as worthy as me."

    Everyone: ¡­

    All of a sudden everyone had fallen silence. Although they are young but they know that not everyone had the rare opportunity to encounter a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion and survive it.

    "When all of you have turned to dust in the future, I will unfortunately be still alive." Yuan Ji was sighing miserably. "It is so lonely to be invincible."

    Then he took out his half-step celestial sword and immediately there was a fearsome divine aura from the celestial sword that suppressed everyone, causing everyone to freeze on the spot and even their breathing had be difficult!

    "There is no need for me to say. How many of you can actually have a celestial sword in the future or even hold it?"

    Then he swung his celestial sword and immediately there was a bright halo so beautiful that it blinds the eyes of all the onlookers.

    "s! I''ve even divine harmonized with my celestial sword. I have heard that there are many old cultivators that have a divine sword but till the end of their saintly existences, they are still unable to divine harmony with their divine sword. What a pity. A divine sword in their hands is like a fresh flower sticking in a cow dung."

    Then with another swing of his celestial sword, there was a double halo on it which immediately caused the ssroom to light up with divine light that caused everyone to tremble with mini aftershocks.

    Under the powerful suppression of a celestial sword and the profound power disyed by the double halo, everyone had copsed t onto the ground and was shaking uncontrobly with great fear!

    "I am so awesome, s that I can even attain a perfect harmony with celestial sword. s, who canpare with me in the cultivation world?" Yuan Ji was sighing.

    "Did I mention that I am also a Sword Saint? Haha."

    One of the cultivators was stammering, "He is really a sword saint¡­"

    Several of the young cultivators were also nodding with great fear now.

    Yuan Jiughed and whistled for Xiaobai to enter the ssroom. "Look! This is my spirit beast Xiaobai. Isn''t she beautiful?"

    All of a sudden a beautiful and graceful nine-tail spirit fox had entered the ss, causing many of the cultivators to stammer in awe.

    "He even has a rare spirit beast¡­"

    "This is so unfair¡­"

    "Xiang Li,e and say hello to my ss." Yuan Ji grinned.

    All of a sudden a very young maiden in revealing transparent silk dress had appeared in front of everyone. Not only was this young maiden extremely beautiful and enticing but everyone could see through her silk dress.

    This caused everyone imagination to run wild, even the maidens were all fascinated by her statuesque looks and they were all gasping at her almost perfect figure.

    "Hello! I''m Xiang Li!" Xiang Li greeted everyone with a mesmerizing giggle.

    When she had spoken, many of the male cultivators were having nose bled and they were dazzled by Xiang Li.

    "Xiang Li is my sentient spirit entity. Why am I so lucky than the other cultivators? Haha."

    Many of the cultivators were weeping bitterly, "We want Xiang Li too¡­"

    Yuan Ji said to everyone, "Therefore cultivation is not everything."

    "When you are a cultivator like me, you don''t even need to cultivate and can enjoy ten thousand years of endless cycle. Therefore the cycles of endless cultivation sufferings do not apply to me..."

    This time when he had said that, no one dared to protest anymore and was listening attentively to him.

    "Speaking from my personal experiences, being a rich cultivator is very important. When you are rich, you can have everything. This is the ultimate truth in cultivation¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were now kowtowing on the ground, begging Yuan Ji to take them as his core prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    "Celestial Teacher, your words of enlightenments, are all words of wisdoms. Please instruct us further¡­"

    "We want to follow you forever¡­"

    "Celestial Teacher, you are the greatest cultivator of all times¡­"

    After bullshitting and brainwashing everyone, Yuan Ji left the ssroom with a triumphant smile.

    "It isn''t so hard to teach a rebellious ss after all." He thought.

    Elsewhere Elder Mo Bei wasughing jovially. "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. Do you know that your ss is a bunch of the most difficult to manage young masters and mistresses of the Mo n. Even I can do nothing against them. Haha. Good luck to you¡­"

 Chapter 106 A Goddess Musings

    Under the silver light of the full moon, a most enchanting maiden with long silver hair was bathing in the cold streams of the mountains. Her looks were extremely peerless but was also extremely lofty. After all she had styled herself as the Abyssal Null Goddess, a Great Deste Goddess.

    Her eyes were mncholy as she muttered softly, "Maybe not great goddess yet¡­almost¡­"

    In the Immortal Realm, the female Immortals have their strict immortal rankings and no one can cross that boundary. They are ranked ording to their immortal strength; fairy being the lowest ranking, follows by Sagess, Goddess and Great Goddess. Over 70% are actually fairies. Therefore a Goddess like her is actually a superior immortal.

    But now she had degraded herself into a mere spirit beast without her former strength.

    Lost and got her celestial sword utterly destroyed¡­

    She even earns herself a ve cor for invoking her immortal powers unnecessary and for failing to kill a mere celestial.

    Now she even had to acknowledge this unruly celestial as her master.

    If the other immortals were to know, she would definitely be the butt of a long immortal joke. As a matter of fact, she had already made immortal history by doing so.

    She had an influential background, being a goddess from the twelve most powerful citadel ns of the deste immortals.

    She had wanted to weep but her pride kept her from doing so.

    He had used her as a head pillow, a fluffy pillow, his bath towel and among many things.

    Touched her and kissed her everywhere¡­

    She was rendered speechless many times from Yuan Ji.

    How she had wished that she could p him or kill him.

    But because he is her master, she cannot even harm him without first having a bacsh. Killing him is also impossible because the ve cor will kill her first. Forming the intentions even without any actions will result in a minor bacsh and voiding her of her profound strength.

    When she had sent the celestial sword to indirect kill him, she had already suffered a bacsh and used up whatever little profound strength that she had cumted.

    Love him like a family?

    Protect him?

    Fat hope!

    Suddenly she pursed her lips, "Actually he isn''t that bad. Just lecherous. Why did he force me to watch his show? This is so mean¡­"

    "Tonight he is probably doing the same¡­"

    "Why did I hate him for doing that?"

    "I am no longer interested in his humiliations?"

    "This isn''t his humiliations. Humph! He is just showing off in front of me¡­"

    Then her soft eyes began to look into the heavens dreamily, "Actually he isn''t so bad looking plus he had ovee a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion. This feat is actually quite impressive and he is already marked to be an immortal figure in the future."

    "Mmm, maybe he can be an ally?"

    But she was suddenly sshing the waters angrily, "This idiot is going to die in two weeks'' time from his duel! What a stupid idiot. Why don''t you hide in a cave and cultivate for a thousand years instead? When you have be a great saint, this goddess here may even be gracious enough to bestow upon you some immortal practices. By then my deste strength will have also recovered. Together we will overturn the Celestial Realm upside down and storm the thirty-three heavens of the righteous immortals!"

    "Xiaobai! Xiaobai! Where are you?"

    All of a sudden she was gasping softly. It was because she waspletely naked!

    She quickly jumped out of the waters and released her profound aura to dry herselfpletely before morphing into a nine-tail spirit fox as shended softly on the dry ground.

    "Why is he so quick today?" She was gasping silently.

    Yuan Jiughed when he saw Xiaobai, "There you are, Xiaobai. Come over here. I was looking everywhere for you."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess immediately leapt into his strong arms and saw that Yuan Ji was sighing heavily.

    She was suddenly curious what was going on. "Why is he sighing so heavily?"<sub> </sub>

    So she used her paw tofort his chest.

    Yuan Ji saw her gesture and smiled, "Xiaobai, I guess that only you and Xiang Li are my only true confidants. Haha."

    Earlier when he was looking for Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, he saw that they were in thepany of Elder Mo Bei. All three of them did not look the least happy at all.

    As a matter of fact, Xue Qianxue even gave him a little rebuke, "What did you say to the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Mo n? Why are they so hardworking in their cultivations all of a sudden?"

    Yuan Ji hadughed, "Isn''t that a good thing?"

    Xue Qianxue said unhappily, "Not when many of the eight year old maidens to sixteen year old maidens are all saying that they want to be your consorts and concubines in the future."

    Ling Feiyue even added a gentle rebuke, "Yuan Ji! Is that how you got your two core prot¨¦g¨¦s Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi into your bed?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Elder Mo Bei added bitterly, "You are wanted by all the orthodox cultivators in the Orthodox Fraternity now and yet your ss is all telling their parents that they all want to be a hero like you and they all want to follow you to be your prot¨¦g¨¦s. It more like a viin like you, am I right? What exactly did you say to them?"

    Because Yuan Ji could not exin clearly, he quickly found an excuse to run away for the night.

    "Where is Xiaobai?! Excuse me! She may be eaten up by some deste beast. I got to find her¡­she may be in danger¡­"

    Elder Mo Bei suddenly said to Yuan Ji as he halted him, "Wait! I''m also here to tell you that Great Patriarch has agreed to let you use the Dream Trial. But there are conditions. He will let you know tomorrow."

    Xue Qianxue was startled and she was pping her hands delightfully, "This is so awesome...I so happy..."

    Ling Feiyue asked her curiously, "What is this Dream Trial about?"

    Even Yuan Ji was a little curious.

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly, "Tomorrow you will know. It is the greatest cultivation secret of the Mo n. I have made an oath not to reveal the details. But trust me, this Dream Trial will be extremely useful for our lord Yuan Ji..."

    Back to the present;

    Yuan Ji was now holding onto Xiaobai, "Well, everything will be fine by tomorrow. Tonight, you shall sleep with me."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess looked at him and nodded shyly¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was smiling bashfully, "He isn''t so lecherous after all¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji saw the crystal clear streams in front of them.

    With a grin he said, "Maybe I shall take a cool dip first."

    With that he had stripped himself naked very fast.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess gulped when she saw his full vanity.

    Yuan Jiughed as he stepped into the streams, "Come on Xiaobai, don''t be shy. It is time for you to take a bath!"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess muttered silently. I have just taken my bath¡­

    But nevertheless, she followed him into the cool streams.

    Xiang Li had popped up in visible view and was hovering above them with a mncholy look, "We are not turning back? So no show tonight?"

    Yuan Ji said with a chuckle, "Yea. Unfortunately. I will tell them that it takes me the whole night to find Xiaobai. Haha."

    With another grin, he added. "Let them calm down first. Rx Xiang Li. There is always next time."

    "Not in two weeks'' time¡­" Xiang Li muttered.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

 Chapter 107 The Dream Trial (1)

    The next day, Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue followed Elder Mo Bei to a nearby floating ind.

    This floating ind had a formidable defensive array protecting it and there were several strong profound signatures of several saints on this floating ind. However these saints stayed away from their sights so they could not exactly see who they were.

    Elder Mo Bei said coolly to them after they had allnded, "You can tie your Spirit Crane here."

    With that he had led them to a hidden white cave in the dense forests.

    The interior of the white cave was actually extremely spacious and it was actually a beautiful hall that wasid with celestium bs and the walls were all polished to a bright white.

    This was actually not a cave at all but a secret cultivation hall!

    They followed Elder Mo Bei to a beautiful passage with many intricate runes on the walls beforeing to another grand hall.

    Inside this grand hall which was equally splendor, Great Saint and Diviner Mo Ming was sitting in front of a gigantic golden cauldron which was filled with millions of high grade spirit stones.

    Around Diviner Mo Ming were six golden saints.

    Xue Qianxue whispered to Yuan Ji, "They are all elders of the Mo n and are at least the middle-tier seventh realm sacred saint level. Be respectful to them."

    Ling Feiyue was looking very startled.

    She knew that the Mo n was a powerful celestial n but she had always thought that it was weaker than the seven major orthodox ns, the five major unorthodox ns and the three heretic pces. But it seemed that she waspletely wrong in that.

    The number of saints in this ce was not lesser in numbers than any of the patriarch ns of the Deste Celestial Fraternity!

    In fact, it was stronger than her own celestial n.

    Elder Mo Bei said solemnly to Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue, "I am bringing you here because we trust you. Do not tell anyone about the Dream Trial or anything what you have witnessed today."

    Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue immediately promised him with utmost politeness.

    They knew that it was all because of Diviner Mo Ming and Xue Qianxue that they were allowed into their consecrated ground.

    Yuan Ji had never expected that Xue Qianxue would have such a formidable background. It was no wonder that the Celestial Orthodox Sect was so unwilling to brand her as a traitor. Branding her a traitor would mean offending the Mo n at the same time.

    Moreover Diviner Mo Ming was a well-known great saint that lived for a very long time. How old he was? He was actually more than ten thousand years old!

    He was so old that he was no longer looking young and had started to age. Soon, he would be attempting his immortal ascension.

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled when he saw them, "Qianxue,e over here."

    Then he turned to smile at Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue, stroking his beautiful long white beard while doing so. "The two of youe over here as well."

    Yuan Ji had a look of envious when he saw Diviner Mo Ming stroking his beard in front of him. I missing my beautiful long beard already¡­

    As Yuan Ji walked over to Diviner Mo Ming, he greeted everyone. "Junior here pays my respect to all the seniors here¡­"

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue also did the same as they followed Yuan Ji''s lead.

    One of the elders smile at them, "We are inferior to you. Among us, only our Great Patriarch had the lucky urrence of encountering the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion."

    The rest of the elders were alsoughing jovially too.

    "Qianxue, we are really proud of you. Haha."

    Qianxue smiled coyly, "s! I have the guidance of my elders to thank for. How can Qianxue says that it is my own efforts? Moreover I had also once taken the Dream Trial with everyone''s help and had ovee my life and death tribtion to be a saintess."

    The elders were all very pleased with Xue Qianxue''s reply and they were all in a good mood.

    Diviner Mo Ming was alsoughing heartily as he pointed at the golden cauldron in front of them, "Ji Yuan, do you know that today you will be burning one billion high grade spirit stones?"

    When Yuan Ji heard him, he wanted to faint on the spot!

    This golden cauldron actually had one billion high grade spirit stones in it!

    He muttered to Xiang Li in his soul sea, "Darn! I don''t want to take this trial anymore. Just give me 1% of the one billion high grade spirit stones and I can shake my leg in cultivation retirement now."

    But he was only joking.

    So he replied politely, "I thank senior for your grooming. But what is this Dream Trial all about? How long will it take? I know nothing about it."

    Diviner Mo Mingughed as he pointed to a sealed door behind him, "The entrance of the Dream Trial is actually just behind me."

    Yuan Ji turned to look at the beautiful golden gate that was behind Diviner Mo Ming. "So this is the entrance of the Dream Trial?"

    Diviner Mo Ming said solemnly to Yuan Ji, "The Dream Trial is actually a tempering of the soul force of the cultivator. The seventh realm sacred saint level is also known as the soul level. It is easy enough to temper the energy and the spirit level. All you need is a little time and enlightenment. But the soul level is the most difficult to temper. The longer a cultivator lives, the weaker is the soul.  It is because the longer a cultivator lives, the more inner demons will be cumted hence it will result in a weaker soul level."

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly as hepletely agreed with that. The reason why he had not attained the Natural Instinct yet was because he found it difficult to merge his energy, spirit and soul perfectly as one. If he could temper his soul then there may be a chance that he could achieve the Natural Instinct as his state of divinity.

    "Therefore the Dream Trial is a trial that may help you to ovee your inner demons and hence, strengthen your soul."

    Yuan Ji gulped as he said silently; this costs one billion high grade spirit stones to trigger. I got a feeling that some immortal cultivators have yed a joke on you¡­

    "Actually I don''t have a lot of inner demons and my soul is actually quite pure." Yuan Ji smiled confidently. He even pointed at Xiaobai and said, "Look, I can even attract a spirit beast to follow me. This shows my soul is actually quite pure."

    Diviner Mo Ming used his divine sense to check Yuan Ji''s soul sea and he was smiling weakly. The result was actually quite unexpected¡­

    Yuan Ji Inner Demons Victories: 999+

    Yuan Ji Pure Soul Victories: 99

    "This Ji Yuan got too many inner demons and his soul is actually quite impure. The number of times that he had also sworn on his soul sea to tell a lie is also appalling¡­" Diviner Mo Ming had a weak look on him as he smiled awkwardly at Yuan Ji before he cursed him silently. "Darn him. He just corrupted my divine sense with his impure soul¡­how is it possible for him to survive a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning?! It must be the pureness of my Qianxue that had helped him¡­grrr¡­"

    Yuan Ji had a triumphant smile as he always believed that his soul was quite pure. After all, he was a gentleman of the sword and has always followed the honor code of the martial spirit with great zeal.

    Diviner Mo Ming thought, "I have better not tell him this or else he will get a huge setback¡­"

    So he smiled, "There is no limits to cultivation. This Dream Trial will only take a day toplete. However before I tell you the details, I need to talk to you about the conditions. Only if you are agreeable to the conditions then we can proceed with the Dream Trial."

    "Alright." Yuan Ji said immediately. This was entirely reasonable for them to ask for the conditions. After all, this Dream Trial would cost them 1 billion high grade spirit stones.

    Diviner Mo Ming hesitated for a while before he said slowly, "Firstly, you will owe the Mo n a big favor and in the future if we require assistance from you, you must help us no matter what. Secondly, you must not harm the interest or hurt anyone from the Mo n ever. What do you say?"

    Yuan Ji was a little startled. It was because the two conditions were reasonable and actually did not require him to do anything for now. He was actually half-expecting the conditions to be like finding a ten thousand dragon lotus spirit root for them below the deste mists or in the trials. Undertaking attempts like this may even cost him his life!

    Moreover since he will be losing his life soon in two weeks, he got nothing to lose too...

    So he replied with a little surprise, "Only two conditions? That''s all?"<sub> </sub>

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled, "Yes, only these two conditions. If you agreeable to it then swear by your soul sea."

    Yuan Ji nodded and immediately made an oath to his soul sea.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were also looking relieved that the conditions were actually such a simple thing. They were actually mentally prepared for some difficult or near impossible conditions to fulfill.

    Diviner Mo Ming said gravely to him, "Ji Yuan, you ought to respect your soul sea. Your soul sea is a little impure at the moment. Don''t recklessly swear by your soul sea for no apparent reason and don''t lie to your soul sea."

    Yuan Ji was about to protest when Xiang Li said inside his soul sea. "He is right. Your soul sea is quite impure. It seems that you have sworn by your soul sea that you have not peeped at Xia Jiajia but actually you did. And that is not the end¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly as he said to Xiang Li, "Heh. I thought that is some harmless thing¡­"

    Diviner Mo Ming was now saying, "This Dream Trial has the power to temper your soul. It is a godly artefact that our Mo n had found in the ancient past. However, how sessful your soul tempering will be, it will depend on your determination."

    "The time in here will also flow 10,000 times faster than the outside flow of time."

    Yuan Ji: ???

    "Erm, what is this trial exactly? This trial will make me grow older by 10,000 times you mean." There was a sudden frown on Yuan Ji''s countenance now. "No thanks. I''m out."

    He knew there must be a catch somewhere.

    Divine Mo Mingughed jovially, "Oh no. You won''t grow old at all. In fact in this Dream Trial you will transmigrate into a dream to live another life as a cultivator. You will have a second chance to rey your cultivator life and be a better person."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Is there such a thing?"

    Even Ling Feiyue had a startled expression¡­

    "Transmigration?!" Yuan Ji was suddenly quite excited.

    He had certainly read stories about it. There are actually many transmigration stories around. Whether it is stated or not in the stories, all transmigration stories teleport the character into the body of another person to live a second life.

    However, whether the transmigration stories state it or not at the ending, it is always a dream and is not real. It is because for transmigration to happen, a false reality like a dream has to happen first. There are rumors of powerful ancient cultivators that can cultivate the transmigration state to temper themselves but it mostly only exists in stories.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly rubbing his chin and grinning excitingly, "Tell me more." He was actually thinking of growing his new beard in his next persona! Muhahaha! He really could not contain his excitement now.

    Although Yuan Ji tried his best to hide his excitement, Diviner Mo Ming could still see through him and warned him. "Remember, this is a trial for your soul tempering and you have only this onest chance. So please make the full use of it."

    Yuan Ji said with a delightful chuckle, "I will definitely make the full use of it! Quick, when can we start?"

    He could not wait for the trial to start now!

    The sooner the better!

    Faster, old man!

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had a bad feeling when they saw the delightful look that was on Yuan Ji. They could not finger what was wrong but the feeling was ominous¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming returned a light frown at Yuan Ji before he said, "I need to tell you about the details of the Dream Trial first. Only after I have finished then we can begin."

    Yuan Ji chuckled sheepishly, "Oh? Haha!"

    Ling Feiyue said to him gently, "Yuan Ji, you look a little excited. Calm down first, alright?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I just love trials. That is why¡­" He was already thinking of a dozen different ways to grow his beautiful beard back and could not wait for a second longer¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming said slowly, "The MC in the Dream Trial is Qin Tianwen. In this life he will have two peerless maidens as his consorts, Zhang Min and Nangong Jiu. Zhang Min is actually his junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister while Nangong Jiu is the Young Mistress of the most powerful heretic n that seeks to unify the fraternity."

    "The MC will also have a secret cultivation method as a cheat that no one knows that can defy the heavens, allowing him to fight opponents that are a realm higher with ease. Not only that, practicing this secret cultivation method will ensure that his soul sea will be twice as vast as a cultivator of his same level."

    Yuan Ji was smiling wryly to himself as he listened on with beaming bright eyes. Awesome. This is too awesome! This is the first time I have such a heaven-defying cultivation cheat! And I even got two peerless maidens as consorts too. Haha! Fate is too kind to me!

    "The MC will be bullied by his fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s and he will have Zuo Bufan who is a hypocrite as his prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster. But eventually he will triumph over his fellow prot¨¦g¨¦s, be the greatest cultivator in the world and kill his master who is actually the main viin."

    Wah! Even the ending is created so beautifully for me already. Yuan Ji was truly delightful when he had heard about the oue.

    Diviner Mo Ming deepened his voice to say to Yuan Ji, "Remember this well! The MC is protected by plot armors and MC''s golden halo!"

    Yuan Ji chuckled. I know, I know. This is a soul tempering trial. I shouldn''t abuse the MC''s golden halo.

    But he was already thinking of a million ways to abuse his new cheat...

    Diviner Mo Ming said, "Now you have to select the options for the MC. This will affect the result of your soul tempering."

    "A dense and na?ve character."

    "A smart and streetwise character."

    "A cunning and ruthless character."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Of course I choose the cunning and ruthless character. It is more realistic this way."

    Diviner Mo Ming nodded, "A good choice."

    "One more thing." he added, "Because you are transmigrating into a dream, you won''t be able to bring anything with you. You have to depend on the cultivation items of that world."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Actually other than my divine sword, I have nothing valuable to bring over. So this isn''t a problem. So, when can we start?"

    Diviner Mo Ming pointed to the golden door behind, "You can enter through this door to start the Dream Trial while we activate the trial from here. Please remember all my warnings¡­"

    Yuan Ji had immediately bolted into the golden door as though he was rushing for his reincarnation.

    Xue Qianxue was looking very anxious. "Patriarch Great-Grandfather, do you think that Ji Yuan has misunderstood the trial or something?"

    Diviner Mo Ming blinked his eyes as he stroked his long white beard, "Did I erm¡­miss anything and forget to tell him?"

    Ling Feiyue said weakly, "Maybe you have said it too quickly and forget to emphasis to him¡­"

    "That''s right. I forget to remind him not to change any of the endings or there will be serious consequences." Diviner Mo Ming suddenly remembered what he had left out.

    Immediately Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue rolled their eyes and were stupefied.

    Ling Feiyue panicky said, "Ji Yuan, he never follows the convention¡­s! Why didn''t you tell him just now? This is the most critical warning¡­call him back¡­"

    Divine Mo Ming smiled bitterly, "The trial has already started¡­"

 Chapter 108 The Dream Trial (2)

    When Yuan Ji opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the bed with a big headache.

    "Where am I?"

    "We are in the Dream Trial now!" A beautiful voice was giggling to him.

    He was startled as he suddenly recalled that he had seemingly dropped into a bright light after he had stepped into the golden door.

    "We? Who is talking to me?"

    All of a sudden Xiang Li had appeared by his bedside and chuckled, "It is me, your Xiang Li!"

    Yuan Ji was super delighted to see Xiang Li. "Howe you can enter the trial with me?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "Maybe it is because we share the same soul sea so I can transmigrate with you."

    Yuan Jiughed heartily, "That is right. You and I are one actually. This is great news. Then I won''t be lonely at all."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I''m not the only one."

    She pointed to Xiaobai who was lying next to Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji turned around and was even more startled to see Xiaobai. He blinked his eyes a few times to make sure that he was not seeing the wrong thing. "I can understand why Xiang Li is here but Xiaobai? What is going on here?"

    He saw that Xiaobai still had her spirit cor around her. "Is this still my Xiaobai?"

    All of a sudden Xiaobai put her paw on his chest.

    Yuan Jiughed as he patted her on the head, "She definitely looks like my Xiaobai. Maybe this MC has a spirit beast that is also the same as my Xiaobai. Haha."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess rolled her eyes, "Idiot! I''m your Xiaobai!"

    She had actually extended her soul force together with her divine sense beyond the golden door to enter with Yuan Ji at the same time. Unlike Yuan Ji, her real body was still outside the Dream Trial and had temporary fallen asleep.

    The reason why she is able to transmigrate her soul using her divine sense is because she is an immortal goddess that has alreadypleted her soul tempering. There are no ancient celestial cultivators that can transmigrate with their souls. Only a superior immortal can do something like this and it is an easy feat for the Abyssal Null Goddess to aplish.

    Earlier when the Abyssal Null Goddess had overheard about the functions of Dream Trial, she was immediately delighted. It was because she could also cultivate here to regain her soul sea. The celestial cultivators did not have the ability to do something like this because their state of divinity and even their golden bodies are incapable of doing so.

    But she is a deste immortal and an immortal goddess!

    Therefore if she cultivates here, her spiritual sea will also increase, amidst a slower rate. Even without her physical body, she could still cultivate spiritual force with her soul and even form a body here.

    "This Dream Trial has better to be a long trial with plenty of years so that this goddess here can fully replenish my spiritual seas and regain my profound strength!"

    That was why she had entered the trial with Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji was absolutely delighted that he had a chance to be in a one billion high grade spirit stones trial. This does not happen just to anyone and he is one of the lucky fellows.

    "s, no wonder my Qianxue is so pure and lovely. She had already partaken in this Dream Trial in the past and had cleansed her soul.  I love you so much Qianxue for pleading with your great-grandfather to let me take part in this trial. Haha¡­"

    Then he spotted a mirror. "I wonder how I look like in here?"

    So he started to examine his face and saw that he was quite dashing. "Not bad. I am quite pleased with this setting¡­hehe¡­"

    All of a sudden he froze on the spot, "Where is my beard?!"

    "Wait. Don''t panic yet. Maybe this body is still a youth and has no beard. That''s it. Haha." Yuan Ji chuckled. "Well, soon I will get back my beautiful long beard¡­"

    Xiang Li was startled as she could sense his emotions. "Don''t tell me that you are only here for your beard and not for your soul tempering?"

    Yuan Jiughed aloud, "I can do both at the same time. Imagine this. The greatest cultivator in the world is also the cultivator with the most beautiful long beard ever. Haha!"

    Xiang Li and the Abyssal Null Goddess were rolling their eyes. They had never seen Yuan Ji this happy before. And he wasughing nonstop.

    Secretly they were both thinking, "I hope you will never get back any beard, beautiful or not."

    All of a sudden there was a knock on the door, "My lord, are you awake?"

    Xiang Li quickly disappeared into Yuan Ji''s soul sea.

    Yuan Ji was startled by the familiar voice and he answered, "Who is that?"

    An extraordinary beautiful maiden with a quiet demeanor had suddenly stepped humbly into the room and she was carrying a tray.

    When Yuan Ji saw her, he waspletely stunned. "Yan''Er? Why are you here?"

    Indeed, this extraordinary beautiful maiden really looked like Shangguan Yan.

    "My lord, you are mistaken. I am your consort Qiu''Er." She sighed softly, "This Yan''Er must be a beautiful maiden from the brothel, am I right to say so?"

    Yuan Ji stammered, "Qiu''Er? You are Qiu''Er and you are my consort?"

    Howe the story setting seemed to be wrong somewhat?! I thought I will have two consorts and they are called Zhang Min and Nangong Jiu?

    "Of course I''m Qiu''Er and I''m your dear consort." Qiu''Er smiled sweetly.

    All of a sudden she gasped as she stepped closer to Yuan Ji. It was because she had spotted a nine-tail spirit fox behind Yuan Ji!

    "This is¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Don''t worry. This is Xiaobai. I''ve found her by the roadside and have adopted her. She is a friendly spirit fox."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: Roadside¡­

    Qiu''Er heaved a soft sigh of relief but she was still eyeing Xiaobai with a fearful look. "Be careful my lord..."

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "I have the MC''s golden halo. Don''t worry about me my dear. Haha."

    "MC''s golden halo? What is it?" Qiu''Er asked curiously.

    "Erm¡­heavens'' secrets. If I reveal it, my life span will be shortened." Yuan Ji pretended to say. He quickly asked, "You say you are my consort? How many consorts do I have? Two?"

    Qiu''Er smiled, "My lord is finally sober now. Yes, my lord indeed has two consorts."

    "Then the other one is Zhang Min¡­"

    All of a sudden Qiu''Er was gasping, "My lord! You mustn''t say that! Zhang Min is our core prot¨¦g¨¦ and she is only sixteen! Although she is a little beauty but you should not have any designs on her."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    THE SETTINGS MUST BE WRONG SOMEWHERE!!!

    "Then the name of my other consort is Nangong Jiu?" Yuan Ji asked weakly.

    Again Qiu''Er was gasping, "No, my lord! She is the Little Demoness Jiu of the Heretic Cultivators. How can she be your consort? Your other consort is Su Xiaoxiao!"<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Then who am I?" Yuan Ji was smiling bitterly. He felt his head going into a big spin.

    "You are our Sect Master Zuo Bufan ya! Have you lost your memory due to the fever?" Qiu''Er expressed her deep concerns for him.

    WHAT?!

    I am the badass viin Zuo Bufan who willter die a most horrifying death?!!

    Yuan Ji waspletely stunned. Someone please tell me this isn''t supposed to be happening?!

    I am not the MC??!

    That means that I don''t have any plot armors or MC''s golden halo¡­

    Yuan Ji was shocked beyond words. He muttered, "At least, I can still grow my beard here. This is a smallfort¡­"

    Qiu''Er sighed softly, "My lord, you are still thinking about your beard? Ever since you have your breakthrough and lost your beard during your bodily transformation, you have been yearning for your beard. Qiu''Er understands your pains but I hope that my lord will be able to pull yourself together and quickly recover your health as soon as possible."

    I have no beard here too?

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    What sort of a stupid setting is this transmigration?!

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had spurt blood!

    "My lord!" Qiu''Er was panicky as she was by Yuan Ji''s side immediately. "My lord! Are you alright? Don''t scare me please¡­"

    Yuan Ji did not know whether tough or cry now. He wanted to get out of this trial ASAP!

    He got a feeling that he was beingpletely screwed by Diviner Mo Ming.

    Yuan Ji shook his head weakly, "Get me Qin Tianwen. I want to erm...talk to him for a little while."

    All of a sudden Qiu''Er was looking panicky, "s, so you have already known¡­"

    Yuan Ji asked, "Know what?"

    "My lord is only pretending not to know. Very well then¡­" Qiu''Er inhaled deeply before she said, "Qin Tianwen had gone for a short experiential expedition with two older prot¨¦g¨¦s. But s, the two older prot¨¦ges were all killed by the deste beasts and only poor little Qin Tianwen had made it back alive."

    Yuan Ji frowned. "Is that so?"

    A little whileter, Yuan Ji had dressed up in his robe and was in the hall with Qiu''Er. He was informed that two elders of the Divine rity n would also be presented.

    When he reached the hall, he saw that the two elders were already presented. When he saw them he was stunned.

    These two elders were actually Little Princess and Jian Yuluo!

    There was a tear in his eyes as he muttered, "Little Princess, Yuxian¡­"

    Before he could greet them, a young voice had greeted him coolly. "Your disciple Qin Tianwen greets prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster!"

    He turned and saw that it was a young man who was around seventeen. He looked extremely harmless and had a righteous face. Unfortunately, he looked a little ugly¡­

    He is Qin Tianwen?

    This young man was actually quite fat and he looked like his best friend Guo Taiming¡­

    -___-'';

    "You are the only person that is back from the experiential training?" Yuan Ji asked unhappily.

    Qin Tianwen answered fluently, "Yes. I am heavily injured too. But s! My two poor senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers have perished while they are covering my retreat. Junior here is too weak! I am so ashamed of myself! I try to retrieve back their corpses but not even their bones have remained!"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly remembered that he had chosen the MC setting as the ''Cunning and Ruthless Character''.

    Therefore he knew that this Qin Tianwen must be lying and had actually plotted against his two older prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers. So he raised his fingers forward to disy his sword energies, "Stop lying! How dare you kill your two prot¨¦g¨¦ brothers! I am going to cripple your cultivation!"

    All of a sudden before he could fully disy his finger sword energies, he had spurted golden blood!

    Qiu''Er and the two elders were all rmed and they had quickly surrounded him, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster, are you alright?"

    Qiu''Er panicky cried, "My lord must have suffered a rpse from his recent injuries again. His recent breakthrough isn''t that smooth sailing and he had even lost his beard¡­"

    Yuan Ji was too stunned to say anything. It was not because of what Qiu''Er had said but because he had finally realized that the MC''s golden halo was too powerful for him to hurt him¡­

    He wasmenting loudly in his soul sea to Xiang Li, "SOMEBODY, please GET ME out of THIS STUPID TRIAL!"

    Xiang Li said weakly to him, "You can''t. Don''t forget that you may lose your Undying Fighting Spirit state of divinity. Then how will you be able to fight the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Therefore you have to endure through the entire trial." Xiang Li smiled weakly at him. "Remember this is to help you to temper your soul and to help you to get rid of your inner demons."

    Yuan Ji: ...

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Outside, Ling Feiyue was sighing softly. "It is alright. At least Ji Yuan is protected by the MC''s golden halo. He won''te to harm¡­"

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled weakly, "I don''t think he is the MC though. His soul sea is too impure to be the main MC."

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

 Chapter 109 The Dream Trial (3)

    When Yuan Ji woke up, he was back in his chamber again and were surrounded by Yan''Er and Chengxi.

    No, wait!

    Yan''Er is now Qiu''Er.

    And Fairy Ye Chengxi?

    He stared at Chengxi and muttered, "Erm, you are my other consort Su Xiaoxiao?"

    Su Xiaoxiao lowered her golden eyes and said bitterly, "My lord doesn''t remember your Xiaoxiao anymore¡­"

    Yuan Ji woke up with a big headache before he turned to them and said solemnly, "From today onward, I am going to reveal to you a heavens'' secret. So pay attention!"

    Qiu''Er and Su Xiaoxiao were both startled as they exchanged a perplexed look with each other, blinking nkly.

    Xiang Li quickly warned Yuan Ji from his soul sea, "Restraint from lying. Remember that you are here to temper your soul! This life is just a passing transition and is not important! Don''t take things too seriously here or you will fall to your heart demons¡­"

    Yuan Ji said to the two maidens, "Qiu''Er, your real celestial name is Shangguan Yan. From today onward, I shall call you Yan''Er. Xiaoxiao, your real celestial name is Ye Chengxi and from today onward, I shall call you Chengxi. When we are alone together, this is what I will call you."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    He is really not listening¡­

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was startled. He is already trying to screw himself so fast?! He doesn''t seem to know that he can''t change a thing here or there will be bad consequences. He is creating more inner demons for himself¡­

    Qiu''Er, Su Xiaoxiao: ???

    But they quickly answered, "Yes, my lord. I''m your Yan''Er. I''m your Chengxi from now on."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially as he patted his chest, "Now it is much better."

    Then he turned to them and asked, "The two elders earlier, what are their names?"

    Shangguan Yan shook her head sadly. Her lord must have lost much of his memory. When they had discovered him after his recent breakthrough, he was lying t on the ground and must have suffered a terrible repercussion on his head.

    But she quickly replied, "They are Elder Qianyu Fen and Elder Mei Yiling."

    "Which one is Little Princess and which one is Yuxian?"

    Shangguan Yan, Ye Chengxi: ???

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Which one seems to hate me the most?"

    Ye Chengxi replied quietly, "We are all from the same n. I don''t think Elder Qianyu Fen hates you. Please don''t say that."

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin and said, "Does she always say that she wishes that I''ll regret the day that I were born?"

    Ye Chengxi was startled when she had heard him but she slowly nodded, "But Elder Qianyu Fen is always like this. There is no need to take this to heart."

    Yuan Ji sighed, "She is Little Princess, alright¡­"

    Then he silently said: the other one must be Yuxian then¡­

    With a grin, he said to Chengxi and Yan''Er. "Tell me everything about Elder Qianyu Fen and Elder Mei Yiling."

    Yan''Er asked him with a concern look, "You can''t remember?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "My memories are a little weaktely. Please tell me everything again so that I can remember."

    "Alright."

    Soon Yan''Er and Chengxi began to tell him everything that they had known about the two elders.

    Elder Qianyu Fen was actually adopted as a baby by the previous prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster. It was rumored that she was actually the daughter of a powerful heretic cultivator that the previous prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster had killed. When she had grown up, she often had ties with the other heretic cultivators.

    Because of this reason, the present Sectarian Master Zuo Bufan had often quarreled with her over this and their rtionship was very bad.

    As for Elder Mei Yinling, she was Qin Tianwen''s direct prot¨¦g¨¦ master and had doted on him. She looked a little displeased earlier when Yuan Ji had tried to cripple her core prot¨¦g¨¦ without giving any reasons. Her usual rtionship with Zuo Bufan was not good and also not bad. But it seemed that it would turn bad soon.

    When Yuan Ji heard them, he was shaking his head with a sigh.

    Then he asked them about Qin Tianwen and Zhang Min cultivation realm level.

    "Zhang Min she is already a second realm peak master practitioner level. She is indeed a genius. As for Qin Tianwen, s, even though he is a year older than Zhang Min but he is only a first realm middle practitioner level. His talent is just so and so."

    Yuan Ji frowned silently. He is probably a third realm enlighten celestial level now because he is trying to hide his cultivation level from the rest. Plus the fact that his heaven-defying cultivation art enables him to fight opponents that are one realm higher, he is equal to a fourth realm immortal celestial level.

    What if I were to steal his cultivation art?

    So he said, "This Qin Tianwen must definitely be the one that kill¡­"

    All of a sudden he spurted out golden blood¡­

    <o>,m "My lord! Are you alright?" His two consorts were panicky asking after him.</o>

    "Qin Tianwen has a heaven-defy¡­" All of a sudden Yuan Ji coughed out golden blood again.

    WHAT IS GOING ON??!

    WHY AM I KEEP COUGHING BLOOD!!!

    The Abyssal Null Goddess sighed and she was shaking her head; This idiotic master. He doesn''t even know that he cannot reveal future knowledge without suffering a bacsh. Now he finally knows the power of bacshes and my sufferings. Didn''t he hear what Diviner Mo Ming had said? The cultivation cheat is only known to the MC.

    Yuan Ji was muttering bitterly, "I think I have coughed out enough blood for the day. Let me rest for a little while¡­"

    Yan''Er and Chengxi nodded as they left him to recuperate.

    When they were gone, Yuan Ji had immediately got up and he was soon on the prowl in the Divine rity n as he tried to get himself familiar with his new surroundings.

    "Hm, I am an initial half-step saint?" He examined his soul sea and he was frowning unhappily. I am back to square one again¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted his thoughts, "Where are we going? Shouldn''t you recuperate first?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "Although I am a half-step saint. I am still a seventh realm saint. This tiny amount of blood can be quickly recovered. As for where we are going, of course we are checking the grounds first."

    He quickly came to a forest within the outer courts of the Divine rity n. The main reason why he had suddenly stopped was because he had spotted Qin Tianwen with a young maiden that was around sixteen.

    As he took a closer look at the young maiden, he saw that she was really an astonishing beauty at such a young age and that she was really adorable looking.

    But he was soon rendered speechless. It was because this young maiden looked like Xue Qianxue!

    He was raging with anger now. Don''t tell me that Zhang Min is actually my Qianxue!

    Then Nangong Jiu is Ling Feiyue??!

    NO!!! This ISN''T SUPPOSED to be HAPPENING!!!

    Zhang Min was now gasping with shock as she stared at Qin Tianwen, "You are back alive?"

    Qin Tianwen was smiling, "Little junior sister, you did not expect this, am I right?"

    Zhang Min took a step back, "But your cultivation realm level is so weak¡­"

    Qin Tianwen wasughing eerily, "You and the other senior brothers have looked down upon me and trampled on my pride. You have even conspired with my two other senior brothers to lure me to the experiential mission so that you can kill me there. Do you think that I do not know about it?"

    Zhang Min was stammering, "So what do you want?"

    Qin Tianwenughed as he took out a bamboo slip, "This is your message to the other two senior brothers. What if I show it to my master and to the other elders of the n? Do you think that they will spare you?"

    Zhang Min: ¡­

    "I have never expected that behind your lovely and cute looks, you actually have the heart of a devil!" Qin Tianwen pointed out as he grinned lecherously.<sub> </sub>

    Zhang Min raised her head to say coldly, "My other senior prot¨¦g¨¦s are just trying to protect me against you. Since day one, you are already looking lecherous at me and you have even tried to peep at me when I''m taking my baths. Do you think that I do not know about it?"

    Qin Tianwen hummed coldly, "That is because you are too pretty and that is why I am giving you an opportunity to disy yourself to me. Look at you, you are as haughty as ever. I''m sure you know what the sectarian punishment is for trying to kill a fellow prot¨¦g¨¦, am I right?"

    Zhang Min trembled lightly as she said weakly, "So what do you want?"

    "Tonight at the third watch,e to the small hut at the Drifting Pavilion. We are going to have some fun together. Let me warn you first. Do not try anything funny or you will surely regret it." Qin Tianwen chuckled before he walked off, leaving a tearful Zhang Min behind.

    Yuan Ji had immediately unsheathed his sword as he shouted loudly, "YOU SHALL NOT GREEN ME!!! DIE, you SON of a BASTARD!!!"

    But instead of words, his golden blood spurted out and he hadnded with his face onto the muddy ground.

    Yuan Ji was disgusted and mad at the setting. Tonight his Qianxue would be Qin Tianwen''s woman. How could he endure something like this?

    Xiang Li tried tofort him, "Erm, this is not real. Just endure and move on. He has the MC''s golden halo plus you have chosen the ''Cunning and Ruthless'' setting, there is no way you can stop him. Every time you try to stop him, you will spurt blood. This is only a minor bacsh. The major bacshes will be you striking by lightning or suffering some crippling cmities that can cause you unable to move even your little finger."

    Yuan Ji bitterly said, "Nobody can green me. I shall GREEN this Qin Tianwen instead!"

    Xiang Li smiled weakly, "You sound like you are already getting into the role as the hypocrite Sect Master Zuo Bufan and you will probably fail to stop this Qin Tianwen."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Tonight we shall assassinate Qin Tianwen." Yuan Ji said firmly.

    "You will not seed. Why don''t you give it up?" An enchanting voice said.

    "Xiang Li, you don''t believe me?" Yuan Ji frowned.

    Xiang Li muttered, "I didn''t say that. It is someone behind your back who had said that."

    Yuan Ji turned around and was stunned to see a most peerless maiden with long silver hair and golden eyes looking at them.

    He was soon gasping, "What an astonishing ravishing beauty. Why is that I found you so familiar? And who are you?"

    "You really can''t remember me?" She asked icily.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was startled, "You¡­are that maiden in that crystal coffin?"

    Even Xiang Li was startled. But she quickly said to Yuan Ji, "Don''t panic. She isn''t a ghost. All the people here are from your memories. Therefore it is not surprising to find a person here that looks like her. Find out first what her role in the Dream Trial is."

    The peerless maiden replied with her enchanting voice, "I''m Bai Qianfeng and I am also your friendly spirit fox. This is my human form after I have sessfully cultivated for a thousand year."

    Yuan Ji stared nkly at her. He had certainly heard of stories of powerful spirit beasts assuming the forms of humans. But that was only in stories. Maybe in this Dream Trial, things were a little different?

    "Erm, you are my Xiaobai? Bai Qianfeng is Xiaobai?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "That is right. And I''m also your friendly Trial Helper to give you a helping hand."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "You are my friendly Trial Helper? Then why don''t you appear sooner?!"

    Xiang Li was also startled, "We have a Trial Helper to assist us?"

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes. That is because I can''t stand your idiotic actions anymore.

    But she quickly smiled and said, "The real Xiaobai is unable to transform into a human form. Only in the Dream Trial can you see me in this form." She had said that to cover her tracks.

    "Make sense." Yuan Ji was rubbing his chin as he pondered. But he was soon frowning. "How do I exit this trial? I can''t stand this trial anymore. This is the stupidest trial that I''ve ever challenged."

    Bai Qianfeng replied, "You can''t exit the trial until you havepleted it."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Somebody please kill me¡­" Yuan Ji was muttering.

    "You can''tmit suicide or be killed by anyone other than the MC too." Bai Qianfeng said. "And you can''t kill the MC too. Before your time is up, the MC will not try to kill you so give it up."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "This is as good as not telling me." Yuan Ji muttered unhappily.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed, "Alright then I shall go away."

    "Wait!" Yuan Ji panicky said. "Tell me what should I do? I am extremely miserable here."

    "I can''t tell you what to do. You are the one that is taking the trial to ovee your inner demons. Not me." Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly.

    Yuan Ji expressed out a disappointing look and he began to sigh heavily. "I really cannot allow my Qianxue to be green by him."

    Bai Qianfeng said, "You need to understand the basic rules of the Dream Trial first."

    "Yes, I know. I can''t kill the MC and he is protected by a MC''s golden halo. He is invincible." Yuan Ji muttered.

    "Not true." Bai Qianfeng said. "The MC is able to kill anyone that is one realm higher than him. Therefore you can''t send anyone that is two realms higher than him without getting any bacsh or heavenly intervention. Therefore when he is at the sixth realm level, he will be able to kill you."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Thanks for telling me this bad news. I am so grateful to you." Yuan Ji said with great sarcasm.

    "You are wee." Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "If you want to save Zhang Min tonight, you need to find people that are kible by the MC in order to affect things. You can''t intervene because your realm level is too high." Bai Qianfeng said casually.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji''s eyes began to light up and he was suddenly smiling at Bai Qianfeng, "So there is a bug!"

    Xiang Li said weakly to him in the soul sea, "But you have no capable fighters that are low level to affect the MC."

    "There are also a few things that you must know too." Bai Qianfeng added. "You cannot expose the MC''s secrets to anyone. You cannot attempt to kill the MC before your time is up. You can oppose the MC but you need proofs of his actions or there will be a bacsh against you and no one will also believe you."

    Yuan Ji pped his hands, "That is easy! As long as I have proof of the MC''s evil deeds then I can save Qianxue! Erm, I mean Zhang Min."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Smart."

    Then she was giggling.

    "Why are youughing?" Yuan Ji asked her curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled, "Because you have chosen the Ruthless and Cunning option, good luck trying to find the MC''s weakness. He will definitely cover his tracks perfectly well due to plot armors. That is actually the highest difficulty setting. If you had chosen the Dense and Na?ve or the Smart and Streetwise setting, you may have a chance to outwit him. But with your intelligence, forget it."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "He shall not green me!" Yuan Ji firmly said as he clenched his fists.

    "He will definitely be able to green you for sure." Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly. "By the way, because you have also chosen the Cunning and Ruthless setting, he will not only green Zhang Min and Nangong Jiu from you but he will also ruthlessly green your consorts and everyone else. This is really the highest level difficulty for you to ovee your inner demons. Therefore I will suggest that you calm yourself down and treat it as a dream. If not your inner demons will multiply."

    Yuan Ji immediately said with great indignant, "No! He will not green me. I will GREEN him INSTEAD!!!"

    Bai Qianfeng: Keep dreaming¡­

 Chapter 110 The Dream Trial (4)

    Yuan Ji was now having a meeting with Xiang Li and Bai Qianfeng in his cultivation room.

    "Nobody shall touch my women even if they are lookalike or even in a dream." Yuan Ji burst out his undying fighting spirit as he said firmly to them.

    Xiang Li, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    He had already said it a umpteen times to them and he was not giving up on his firm conviction.

    Xiang Li giggled as she whispered to Bai Qianfeng, "Don''t mind him. He has learnt a spirit cultivation profound art, the Undying Fighting Spirit and that is why he can''t give up so easily. If he gives it up then he will cripple half of his fighting spirit and cultivation strength of his sixth realm level."

    Bai Qianfeng whispered back, "But he is so willing to give up on the trial earlier¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "His face is more important to him than his cultivation¡­"

    Yuan Ji was still pacing up and down when he had suddenly turned to them with a grin, "I have an idea now."

    Xiang Li and Bai Qianfeng exchanged a perplexed look with each other¡­

    "The two of you will join me together to brainstorm together. No matter what happens today, we mustn''t let Qin Tianwen to get his hands on my Qianxue. As the saying goes, three heads are better than one." Yuan Ji grinned at them.

    Xiang Li, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng muttered, "I am the Trial Helper. How can I help you¡­"

    But she quickly answered, "Yes¡­" It was because she had to obey the wishes of her master.

    Yuan Ji was delighted that Bai Qianfeng had agreed to help him so readily. He knew that she was a Trial Helper and could not help him directly. Therefore he was just throwing suggestions everywhere out of desperation.

    Bai Qianfeng said, "You shouldn''t be too blind on your hatred for the MC. Because there is nothing you can do at the moment against him."

    Yuan Ji growled, "But I''m not giving it up."

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "I didn''t ask you to give it up. You can always work on the other events. Like finding an excuse to speak with Zhang Min."

    Yuan Ji was startled as heughed, "Qianfeng! Thank you for such a big hint!"

    So he ran off to find Yan''Er and Chengxi, "Get me Zhang Min. I wish to speak with her."

    "Did shemit any wrong?"

    "Even if she is in the wrong, you cannot just summon her just like this. You have to inform the Sect Punishment Elders first of her wrongdoings. Or else you will only be frightening her and giving others the impression of an inappropriate rtion."

    Chengxi said, "Zhang Min is my direct core prot¨¦g¨¦. Do you need me to pass a message to her?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He was hoping mad. This Dream Trial was purposely limiting his authority and imposing several restrictions on him to protect the MC.

    But they were right. He really had no business in looking for a sixteen year old young maiden.

    Bai Qianfeng said to Yuan Ji, "Well, I didn''t say it will work."

    Yuan Ji grinned as he quickly rushed to put on a ck veil, "No, it will work. I love you so much Qianfeng. Muhaha."

    Bai Qianfeng was startled and she was suddenly flustered: He loves me?

    She transformed into a nine-tail spirit fox as she hastily followed him: What is he up to?

    Yuan Ji was soon at Zhang Min''s abode. All core prot¨¦g¨¦s actually had their own personal abodes and he had got the directions to Zhang Min''s abode from Chengxi.

    Zhang Min was looking extremely rejected and she was weeping when Yuan Ji had suddenly appeared behind her abode''s door. "Do not be sad."

    Yuan Ji did not need to enter the door to know that she was crying all by herself. It was because his seventh realm divine sense had the sensory perception to hear her.

    "Who''s that?" Zhang Min was startled. Then she was screaming. "You are not allowed toe here! You are a badass rascal!"

    But Yuan Ji replied, "Fear not. I''m a friend." He had wanted to say that he was not Qin Tianwen. But this would cause a bacsh for invoking the use of a foreknowledge. After going through so many bacshes, he had already known the rules very well by now.

    "A friend?" Zhang Min was startled.

    "Absolutely. I''m your secret friend but you must never tell anyone about me." Yuan Ji said casually.

    "What do you want?"

    Yuan Ji knew that he must not tell her that he knew about the meeting in the hut or what he had known about the MC. It was because he had suddenly realized that there was a powerful restriction that was always working against him to protect the MC.

    So he said casually, "Although tonight''s moon is going to be very beautiful but some people may not be able to appreciate it."

    Zhang Min was rmed, "What do you mean?" Did this unknown stranger know something about her meeting with Qin Tianwen tonight?

    Yuan Ji coughed softly, "Ahem. You see. If some naughty people gets punish by their elders then naturally they will not be going anyway. If it is quite serious then even the sect master will be forced to intervene."

    Zhang Min was suddenly smiling.

    She quickly shed to open the door to thank the stranger but the mysterious person had already left her abode, leaving no traces behind!

    "Thank you!" There was a brimming tear in her eyes as she thanked him quietly. "Who are you? Why are you helping me?"

    Not long after, there was a fire in one of the sect''s cultivation hall and the culprit was quickly found. It was Zhang Min!

    Because it was such a serious matter, the Punishment Elders had to bring it to the attention of their Sect Master Zuo Bufan.

    Now Yuan Ji was in the inner main hall of the Divine rity n and he was looking at Zhang Min who was kneeling on the floor.<sub> </sub>

    Elder Qianyu Fen (Little Princess), Elder Mei Yiling (Jian Yuluo/Yuxian) and Su Xiaoxiao (Ye Chengxi) were presented to hear the judgment that was to be passed on Zhang Min.

    The reason why Chengxi was presented was because she is Zhang Min''s prot¨¦g¨¦ master.

    "Zhang Min, why did you do that for?" Chengxi was muttering with great sadness.

    Zhang Min was weeping uncontrobly. It was because she knew that she had broken the heart of her prot¨¦g¨¦ master. But if she did not do anything so drastic, she may not be able to get away from Qin Tianwen''s clutches. Moreover she knew that one of the punishment elders, Elder Mei Yiling is also Qin Tianwen''s prot¨¦g¨¦ master.

    Therefore she would rather get punished by the sect master than the elders. Maybe she could even get expelled from the sect and she could get away from the evil Qin Tianwen. No one would believe her even she tells them that Qin Tianwen is actually a cunning and powerful cultivator. It is because he is able to hide things so well.

    Zhang Min sobbed, "I await sect master''s punishment."

    Yuan Ji asked her, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ Zhang Min, did you or did you not burn the cultivation hall?"

    "I did." She answered with more tears.

    "Why did you do that for?"

    Zhang Min did not know how to answer. She did not want to lie to her soul sea or to the leadership of the sect. So she replied, "I did it willfully. I have no excuses at all. I will take full responsibility."

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply before he said, "Since this is your first offence and you are only sixteen, I am willing to give you a chance to amend¡­"

    When Chengxi heard him, her face had lit up all of a sudden.

    However Elder Qianyu Fen and Elder Mei Yiling were not looking too pleased. It was because burning a cultivation hall was a heinous crime.

    Elder Qianyu Fen said coldly, "Because she is your consort''s core prot¨¦g¨¦ and that is why you are going to give her a lenient punishment?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Who says I am going to give her a lenient punishment?"

    Elder Qianyu Fen hummed coldly, "Then what is her punishment then?"

    Yuan Ji turned to Zhang Min and said unhurriedly, "Your sins are heavy. So heavy until you are not worthy of the name that your parents have given you anymore. Therefore from today onward, you shall be known as Xue Qianxue. I hope that you will remember your shame by heart."

    Elder Qianyu Fen was stunned, "Only a name change?"

    "Ahem! Of course not!" Yuan Ji said solemnly, "I shall also remove Qianxue''s position as core prot¨¦g¨¦ as well."

    Elder Qianyu Fen hummed coldly, "This is more like this¡­"

    "And Xue Qianxue shall remain in the inner pce and serve Xiaoxiao as her personal maid. She is forbidden to step out of the inner pce for the next ten years."

    Zhang Min, Elder Qianyu Fen, Elder Mei Yiling, Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Elder Mei Yiling said, "Isn''t this punishment a little too light?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "She is not only going to be Xiaoxiao but also my maid as well. So how could this punishment be light at all?"

    Elder Qianyu Fen said unhappily, "Surely you are not thinking of taking advantage of her, am I right?"

    Yuan Ji turned to look at her coldly, "You can eat the wrong food but you cannot say the wrong words. Stay behindter. I wish to have a word with you."

    Elder Qianyu Fen hummed coldly, "Finally you are exacting your vendetta on me. Fine. I like to see what tricks you have!"

    Yuan Ji waved his hand, "Other than Elder Qianyu Fen, everyone please dismiss yourself."

    Zhang Min was now stammering, "Qianxue obeys prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster''smands¡­" As she left, she was taking nces at Yuan Ji. It was because she had suddenly found his voice to be actually quite familiar¡­

    Yuan Ji secretly stole a nce at Qianxue as she left. Now that she is in my inner pce, she will be temporary immune from the harassment of Qin Tianwen. But it won''t be for too long because Qin Tianwen still has a handle over her.

    Soon everyone else had left except for Yuan Ji and Elder Qianyu Fen.

    Elder Qianyu Fen coldly said to him, "So, what do you want?"

    Yuan Ji gave a soft sigh before he took small steps to her, "Fen, actually do you know that you''re like my Little Princess? Why don''t I call you Little Princess in the future?"

    Elder Qianyu Fen: ???

    "I know that we have a big misunderstanding in the past and I have often quarreled with you. It isn''t because I have despised you because of your background. On the contrary, I am quite ashamed of myself because I hate myself for unable to tell you that I have actually like you." Yuan Ji slowly said.

    Elder Qianyu Fen was suddenly stammering, "You¡­you are serious?"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had caught her on her slim waist and drawn her close to him, "I am serious. Little Princess, I really like you. It has always been buried deep inside my heart."

    "Then why did you leave so suddenly after that night at the broken temple. And why are you so cold toward me ever since that day¡­"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly kissing her gently on her soft lips as he muttered, "Say no more. It is all in the past¡­"

    After kissing for a few rounds, her defenses were broken and they were suddenly exploring with their tongues.

    Yuan Ji''s hands were fondling her back and her soft butt.

    Finally he lifted her up in his strong arms as he said gently, "Little Princess, I want to see your beautiful self in all your glory. Shall we go to a secluded ce now?"

    Elder Qianyu Fen averted her eyes shyly as she nodded lightly.

    ? Xiang Li was screaming happily in Yuan Ji''s soul sea. "YES!!!"

    Bai Qianfeng spirit fox form was shaking her head. She could not believe what she was seeing. This idiotic master of hers is changing everyone''s names to fit his own imagination. Do you know that you are not supposed to do this at all? You just changed Qianyu Fen to Little Princess and even Zhang Min name to Xue Qianxue permanently...

 Chapter 111 The Dream Trial (5)

    After settling Elder Qianyu Fen and making her into his woman, Yuan Ji was now knocking on Elder Mei Yiling''s abode.

    Elder Mei Yiling was unhappy to see him. "Why are you here for?"

    Yuan Ji inhaled heavily, "It is so good to see you again. Do you know that I really miss you a lot?"

    Elder Mei Yiling gasped as she hastily took three steps back before she calmed herself down. "Are you drunk today?"

    "I am not drunk." Yuan Ji smiled bitterly. "I am here to see you today and I know that you are also thinking of me."

    Elder Mei Yiling hummed coldly, "Who is thinking about you? Do you think that I will be so free to think of you? Did you not say that you are happy with Qiu''Er and Xiaoxiao as your two consorts and that you will never get yourself another consort in your lifetime again?"

    "I was wrong. Very wrong. After my almost fail breakthrough, I have only memories of you. Yuxian, I really want you to be my consort and to be close to my heart. I hope that you will grant my request."

    "Yuxian?"

    "Yes, Yuxian. From today onward, you will no longer be called Mei Yiling but Jian Yuxian. This will be your new name as we will roam the fraternity together. Yuxian, do you want to be with me?"

    Elder Mei Yiling had burst into uncontroble tears, "I do. I do! Do you know that I''ve been waiting for you to say this to me for the longest time? I am so happy today¡­alright¡­from now on my new name will be Jian Yuxian¡­"

    Yuan Ji was already hugging her tightly as he wept with joy, "Yuxian, it is so good to see you¡­again¡­I am so sorry that I didn''t get to say these words to you in the past¡­please forgive me¡­please don''t leave me again¡­"

    These words were also meant for his deceased consort Jian Yuxian in the real world¡­

    "I¡­will¡­believe¡­you this time. Please do not hurt me. I really can''t take the shock if you do¡­" Elder Mei Yiling cried as she buried her head in his chest.

    "I won''t. This is a promise." Yuan Ji tightened his arms around him as he felt her soft andforting warmth that he had not experienced for over three hundred years¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji was now alone in the hall and he was sipping tea. He was recalling his happy moments with Little Princess and Yuxian when Xue Qianxue had entered the hall.

    She said quietly, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster, are you the one that have secretly aided me that day?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Of course not. I don''t sneak around the doors of my prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Then how did you know that the stranger that was aiding me had spoken to me from behind the door? Also, you may have disguised your voice but the tone that you have used resembles that stranger¡­

    For the past several days, she had been quietly observing her prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster Zuo Bufan to take note of his speeches and tones.

    She was quite sure that the stranger that had aided her was him and now she was very sure. Her punishments were really extremely light for such a heinous crime like burning down a cultivation hall.

    Actually she had purposely avoided burning the cultivation slips that were inside as she did not really harbor any malicious intentions.

    But it did not change the fact that she hadmitted the most unpardonable wrongdoing. Therefore she had expected her punishment to be heavy.

    At first she had thought that she may be mistreated as a maid by the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster but he was always babbling to himself and did not seem to harbor any animosity toward her for burning down one of the cultivation halls.

    She had even caught him looking under her short skirt many times.

    "Are you my secret friend?" she suddenly asked him.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "If it is a secret friend then it won''t be fun if the identity of this secret friend is to be found out so soon, am I right?" Xue Qianxue smiled as she said.

    "But I am sure that you are that secret friend. I can even guess that you may know something about Qin Tianwen. Is it because his prot¨¦g¨¦ master is Elder Mei Yiling and that is why you are hesitating to take action? I saw you with Elder Mei that day and the two of you are quite intimate."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "It is not only Elder Mei and also Elder Qianyu too." Xue Qianxue said quietly without fear.

    Yuan Ji was suddenly startled. He had not expected that a sixteen year old like Xue Qianxue would be so bold as to question her prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster!

    He was suddenly blinking his eyes at her.

    He began to rub his chin. Even at this young age, Xue Qianxue had maturity beyond her years.

    Xue Qianxue always had an adorable look and innocent look. He began to recall that time when she had suddenly attacked him, he could not even sense her malevolent air. She seemed to have the ability to catch people off-guarded without anyone sensing her true intentions. Her power of observation was also not weak.

    As for Ling Feiyue, she looked gentle but she was so bold that it defied logic.

    He sighed to himself, "These two maidens really have their own interesting personalities. My Yan''Er is smart but weak while Chengxi is soft and stubborn. Little Princess is toxic with her choice of words but is actually kind. Yuxian is always keeping things to herself¡­Jiajia, I don''t know¡­she is too unfathomable¡­"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted his thoughts as she averted her eyes shyly, "I wonder if you like me?"

    Yuan Ji almost dropped his jaws. The youngsters these days are really too bold!

    Xiang Li had suddenly popped into his soul sea as she seemed to get wind of an interesting development, "So what will you say to her?"

    Yuan Ji coolly answered Xiang Li in secret, "She is only sixteen and is my prot¨¦g¨¦. Even if I want to green her, I have to wait until she is older."

    Seeing that Yuan Ji did not reply her and was hesitating, Xue Qianxue said slowly. "Are you thinking that I am only sixteen and too young or that I am your prot¨¦g¨¦ therefore you cannot say anything inappropriate to me? Or both?"

    Yuan Ji nodded slowly.

    "Many of the maidens that are the same age as me or younger are already married. Therefore you can''t say that I''m too young. Also I am not your prot¨¦g¨¦ but your personal maid. So you can''t say we cannot have any inappropriate rtionship. If our rtionship is inappropriate then what about your rtionship with Elder Mei and Elder Qianyu?"

    Xue Qianxue looked at him nervously, a little afraid that her words may be too bold or disrespectful. Actually she had thought over for many days that she had actually liked her grand prot¨¦g¨¦ master¡­

    "Qianxue does not have hope that I can be your consort or your concubine¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was suddenly gasping. It was because before she could finish, Yuan Ji had suddenly seized her up and put her on his strong arms. "Qianxue, tonight I''m going to make you into a real woman and¡­my woman¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was now blissful looking at Yuan Ji and she was biting her lips¡­

    Xiang Li shouted happily in the soul sea, "YES!!"

    Yuan Ji said to her, "We are going to continue on our ns to GREEN the MC! Now don''t let Qianfeng knows or she willin that we are losing to our heart demons."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I won''t, I won''t."

    Lately Bai Qianfeng had indeed beenining too much that he was losing his heart to his depravity and even used Xiang Li of being his heart demon.

    "How can Xiang Li be my heart demon? We are not even the same kind." Yuan Ji hadughed it off.

    "My lord, why did you give me the name of Xue Qianxue? Is there any meaning to it? Xue Qianxue was suddenly asking him while Yuan Ji was putting her gently on the bed.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji said with a gentle voice and his eyes were suddenly emotional, "It is because that is the name of your past life with me. We are actually a couple in our past life together."

    Xue Qianxue was gasping, "Really? Then are we blissful together in the past life?"

    Yuan Ji hesitated for a while before he said weakly, "We didn''t stay together for too long because I was killed in an honor duel. I didn''t get to see the birth of our child¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was trembling hard when she suddenly saw that there were tears in his eyes. She said firmly, "In this life we are going to be together forever¡­"

    Yuan Ji did not reply to her and instead he said silently. In this life, I will get kill by the MC and die a most horrifying death¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji was now saying to Bai Qianfeng, "Thank you so much. I have finally reconciled with Little Princess and Yuxian. I feel so happy."

    Bai Qianfeng said bitterly, "I certainly didn''t teach you to change all their names. As a matter of fact, you shouldn''t be doing that. Lest you forget again, let me remind you. You cannot change any of the endings without a grave consequence."

    Yuan Jiughed it off, "As long as my conscious is clear, why do I need to bother with clearing my heart demons?"

    Bai Qianfeng gave a soft sigh of resignation, "Do you know what heart demon is? It is your inner demon that causes you to fall deeper into depravity. If you immerse in the impossible and too deep into your desires, it will be your heart demon. Your consort Jian Yuxian is dead. Forget about her and stop dwelling in the past. Ovee your heart demons andplete the trial. Don''t forget you are here to temper your soul¡­"

    Yuan Ji was thinking of a sudden. How did she know that Yuxian is no longer around? This Trial Helper is too powerful...

    But he was quickly distracted by her peerless looks and her beautiful naked legs to think further...

    All of a sudden he was stroking her long silver hair and saying to her. "Too bad you are only the Trial Helper that takes the form of this beautiful maiden. I know that what I did in the past is a super badass thing by throwing you out of the crystal coffin and causing your body to disintegrate. When I go to the afterlife, I will surely apologize to you. I really regret doing what I did to you."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "In this life, I want to live a life without regrets. I understand that you are helping me and I actually appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. You are really a very beautiful maiden. I just wonder what your life is when you are alive? I hope that you didn''t have any regrets as much as I do."

    Bai Qianfeng was suddenly shuddering lightly as she murmured, "I¡­have¡­no regrets¡­" It is because I have no emotions. I am a deste immortal goddess¡­

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "I know that this is but a dream but it is so nice to be talking to you now. When we are back to the real world, you will be Xiaobai and you will no longer talk to me anymore."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    She suddenly had conflicting emotions in her heart. If you know that I have tried to kill you then you won''t be too pleased to hear about this¡­

    "You ask me to be here to talk about this? You didn''t even bother to heed my warnings so why look for me?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I didn''t see you for so many days so I wonder how you are."

    "Didn''t I tell you that I will be cultivating?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "You are the Trial Helper. I''m not so stupid to believe that you will be cultivating. Do you even need to cultivate at all?"

    I am trying to replenish my soul sea, that''s why! But Qianfeng did not dare to say it loud to him because this was her secret.

    "If you got nothing to say to me then please go away." Bai Qianfeng gave a soft hum.

    Yuan Ji gave an awkward expression before he mustered the courage to say, "Qianfeng, even though you are the Trial Helper but you are also from my memory. Therefore I cannot entertain the possibility that you will be green by Qin Tianwen in the future¡­"

    "What are you trying to say?" Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly. This idiotic master is sinking deeper and deeper into his heart demons. She had already decided to wash her hands off his affairs.

    "I''ve decided to green you today." Yuan Ji said with great solemn.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "What did you say?!" Bai Qianfeng was stunned. Someone please tells me that this isn''t supposed to be happening¡­

    "I have already green everyone that I''ve known except for you." Yuan Ji said with great seriousness.

    Bai Qianfeng really did not know whether tough or cry.

    "Go away, I''m not interested to jump into your bed. I''m not your consorts or any of your women¡­"

    "Qianfeng, you must." Yuan Ji repeated. "I promise you that in this life, I will treat you good and you will also be my consort."

    Bai Qianfeng found herself muttering softly, "Alright¡­" But it was not because she was touched by his honeb words but because she could feel his will seizing her in her soul sea. If she continues to resist his will then she will suffer a severe bacsh!

    Yuan Ji had used ''I''ve decided to green you today'' and ''Qianfeng, you must.'' These twomands had forced her toply against her will.

    She really did not believe what she was saying and tried to control her tongue¡­

    Yuan Ji had suddenly seized her and he was kissing her passionately, "Qianfeng, tonight you will be my woman¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was trembling and even fearful. It was because this man actually had the audacity to take her body. Even if this trial is a dream but she is going to live through an awful experience.

    Suddenly she had regretted reverting to her true goddess form to help him and now he was actually trying to take advantage of her!

    As Yuan Ji took her down the hall, she was trembling and struggling to free herself.

    However even though she had the thoughts but her willpower was weak.

    After they had entered the bed chamber for an hour, it was quickly reced by ecstasies and inseparable embraces.

    Bai Qianfeng was muttering almost incoherent and trying to convince herself. This is but a dream. Nothing is real. So, I am still the lofty goddess¡­that''s right. It is only a dream. Don''t lose yourself to your heart demons¡­this is only a soul force tempering trial¡­"

    Xiang Li was drooling and her eyes were growing crazy with the powerful sexuality that was exhibited by Bai Qianfeng. She was very, very hot.

    She did not know that Yuan Ji was actually banging a real goddess and her soul was flying high. She had never been so aroused before and she had even popped out of Yuan Ji''s soul sea to watch shyly next to them as they battled against each other¡­

    Time flies and they had battled for one night and one day. Even Yuan Ji was stunned that he had actually lost control of himself.

    The bed waspletely in a mess and soaking wet¡­

    After that Yuan Ji, Bai Qianfeng and Xiang Li had all slumbered into a deep sleepsting several hours.

    When Yuan Ji had waked up, Bai Qianfeng was gone.

    "Qianfeng, where are you?"

 Chapter 112 The Dream Trial (6)

    On this day the Divine rity n was taking a break from its usual training routines and almost everyone had gathered to watch the prot¨¦g¨¦s tournament that was behind held.

    This prot¨¦g¨¦s tournament was only for the prot¨¦g¨¦s that were below the fifth realm level and the tournament rule was straightforward. The prot¨¦g¨¦s would be randomly picked to pair off against each other.

    This year, a total of 3600 prot¨¦g¨¦s were taking part.

    Depending on the prot¨¦g¨¦s tournament result, the prot¨¦g¨¦s could even have a chance to be an inner or a core prot¨¦g¨¦. But of course, the main attractions were the cultivation rewards, sect contribution points and the sect ranking. These were the things that the prot¨¦g¨¦s were most interested in.

    Yuan Ji with a nine-tail spirit fox in his arms, was watching the prot¨¦g¨¦s tournament along with his elders and the senior prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Bai Qianfeng waspletely uninterested in the prot¨¦g¨¦ tournament. It was because she felt extremely lost for thest couple of months; she had tried to deny that she had formed an emotional attachment with Yuan Ji but she could not help thinking about him every day¡­

    And she was also enjoying their bedroom fights too¡­

    I love him too?

    She keeps questioning herself.

    Maybe I should step in to screw his honor duel for him and gleefully watch his angry expressions?

    Yuan Ji of course did not know what she was thinking as he hugged her close to his heart. Right now, he was actually using her as a hugging pillow.

    Suddenly he was stroking Xiaobai''s butt and imagining her as Bai Qianfeng¡­

    Bai Qianfeng stared unhappily at Yuan Ji and she emitted a soft growl.

    Yuan Ji quickly took off his hands from her butt as he returned an awkward smile.

    Just as Bai Qianfeng was able to calm down, Yuan Ji was quietly stroking her chest with his fingers.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Just as she was about to bite his fingers, her head had suddenly felt giddy.

    She had suddenly remembered that she was not supposed to hurt or harm her master¡­

    Heavens¡­I am a goddess and I am now being abused by his fingers during the day and even has to warm his bed at night¡­someone please save me from him¡­

    She had even secretly asked Xiang Li if she was able to remove her ve cor but Xiang Li replied that she did not have the power to remove any profound signatures from a living person.

    "I will be stuck with him¡­" Bai Qianfeng was stunned by the revtion.

    When his fingers were stroking her again, she was suddenly licking his fingers¡­

    Actually Yuan Ji was watching Qin Tianwen keenly and he was not being too mindful with his hands. It was because he had already got used to touching Xiaobai since day one.

    Right now Qin Tianwen was walking quite pathetically after finishing a match with another prot¨¦g¨¦. He was inviting jeers from the others.

    "He is only lucky¡­"

    "He has almost won his fight¡­"

    "He doesn''t look so strong¡­"

    But of course, this was all only an act and an illusion that was created by Qin Tianwen. He had purposely only won narrowly and only after taking a prolong time as not to expose his real strength and trump cards.

    He was smiling slyly, "Go on andugh. Later when I am at the top, I like to see if you can all continue tough through your asses."

    As he walked away, he had spotted Xue Qianxue and he was smirking to himself, "Qianxue, you have only managed to temporary escape from my hands but it won''t be for too long. Once I am the winner of this sect tournament, I will be able to enter the inner pce freely to visit the cultivation halls as my prestige. Then I will make sure that you will sumb into my hands. Don''t forget that you still have a handle in my hands."

    He was also smirking as he caught sight of the heavenly beauty of Su Xiaoxiao. "She is like a heavenly fairy. So what even if she is my prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster''s consort? Soon she will be warming my bed. Her sister Qiu''Er is also as beautiful.

    Then he was looking at Elder Mei Yiling. "Even if you''re my master, I won''t spare you from my bed. Haha."

    And he was also grinning lecherously at Elder Qianyu Fen at the same time. "Maybe I can bed you first and use you to gain ess to the secrets of the sect first."

    -

    -

    -

    Time passed, more and more prot¨¦g¨¦s were eliminated and finally there were only one hundred strongest or luckiest prot¨¦g¨¦s that were remaining.

    And one of them was naturally Qin Tianwen.

    This naturallyes at a great surprise to many.

    "That trash is actually in the top 100?"

    "A fourth realm prot¨¦g¨¦ brother was defeated by him earlier."

    "He looks like a cockroach. Isn''t he walking with a limp earlier?"

    "Maybe his opponents are all underestimating him¡­"

    "His luck may run out soon. The other 99 prot¨¦g¨¦s are all strong cultivators¡­"

    But to the astonishment of everyone, Qin Tianwen had made it to the top 50¡­

    Top 30¡­

    Top 10¡­

    Top 4¡­

    Number 1¡­

    Qin Tianwen had actually defeated all the other prot¨¦g¨¦s and had be the ultimate winner!

    All the prot¨¦g¨¦s were shocked beyond words, including the other elders!

    The number 1 winner would also be receiving a fourth realm profound pill that could aid a cultivator to increase his spiritual boundaries among many treasures.

    All of a sudden Qin Tianwen was now in the limelight as all the prot¨¦g¨¦s were awed by him.

    Qin Tianwen wasughing silently, "From this day onward, I will have everything. Cultivation resources, prestige, women and position¡­haha¡­I am really the son of the heavens, a genius among geniuses. These fools have tried to weaken my profound strength, not knowing that my soul sea is twice as vast as anyone. They didn''t even know that I am at the fourth realm cultivation realm level now and I can even kill a fifth realm golden celestial."

    Yuan Ji proimed to everyone as he rose from his seat, "The number one prot¨¦g¨¦ of the prot¨¦g¨¦s tournament this year is Qin Tianwen! Well done."

    Qin Tianwen disyed a humble and nonchnt appearance as he said respectfully, "It is all thanks to the tutge of my master and the daily help that I''ve received from the other prot¨¦g¨¦s and elders."

    Yuan Ji grinned as he said, "I really didn''t know that we have a genius cultivator in our sect. Qin Tianwen is only 17 this year. In the future, his potential will be limitless."

    Qin Tianwen said humbly, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster is heaping too much praises on me. I''m truly unworthy."

    Yuan Ji shook his head, "Oh no, you are truly worthy. I am afraid that the only person that is unworthy in the Divine rity Sect is actually me."

    He had suddenly brandished his long sword and raised it in front of Qin Tianwen, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ Qin Tianwen, I am going to test your potential today. If you are able to receive a single sword stroke from me then I will be giving you a handsome reward."

    Bai Qianfeng used her paw to hit his left leg. Idiot! Don''t you know that he cannot be killed or be injured by you or anyone that is more than a realm higher than him? You will only be disgracing yourself.

    Qin Tianwen looked a little surprised as he looked at Grandmaster Zuo Bufan, "Um, alright¡­"

    Yuan Ji said aloud, "All the elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s be my witnesses. If Qin Tianwen can handle a single stroke from me then I shall tell everyone a heaven defying secret of our sect."

    Everyone: ???<sub> </sub>

    Without waiting for anyone to react, Yuan Ji had suddenly raised his sword into a flying stance as he shed with a terrifying speed toward Qin Tianwen.

    But before he could even reach Qin Tianwen, he could feel his profound energies dissipating from his bacsh and Qin Tianwen was able to parry off his sword stroke easily.

    As Yuan Ji took a step backward, he began to cough out golden blood!

    Everyone was stunned¡­

    Qin Tianwen was somewhat stunned as well. It was because he was only concerned about preserving his own life and did not even have the profound strength to counter-attack. But yet his prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster had suddenly coughed out blood?

    Bai Qianfeng gasped with a tearful look at Yuan Ji. You idiot!

    Yuan Ji was quickly helped up by his consorts and the many elders. He had suffered from severe internal injuries bacsh as a result for trying to kill the MC.

    As he got up, he continued to cough out blood.

    It took him a while to steady himself before he turn to say to Qin Tianwen, "As I suspected all along, Qin Tianwen here is the one-in-one million cultivators that can be an immortal in the future. If I am not wrong, then he has the extreme cultivation attributes of the ancient immortal celestials. He may even be the reincarnation of one too. Did you all see just now when I had attacked him, his profound energies can even hurt me before I cannd my stroke against him? This is the proof!"

    When Yuan Ji had said that, all the proteg¨¦s were in awe. Even the female prot¨¦g¨¦s were suddenly taking notice of Qin Tianwen¡­

    "He is so impressive?"

    "Howe we didn''t know about it in the past?"

    "Shit! I have just offended him¡­"

    "No wonder he is so unbeatable¡­"

    "Although he isn''t handsome now and is fat but he is so manly..."

    Yuan Ji turned to everyone solemnly to say, "My old master had once said to me that my name Zuo Bufan (which means Not Ordinary) is not meant for me because I''m not the destined one. Only when the Special One has appeared then he is fitted to use my name. Today, after years of searching, I have finally found him and he is Qin Tianwen here!"

    Qin Tianwen was confused. What is he babbling about? Is he trying to save his face?

    Yuan Ji patted Qin Tianwen on his shoulder, "From today onward, you shall not only be the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of our sect but you shall also be known as Zuo Bufan. Your patriarch grandmaster had said that this name shall be yours to retain. From this day onward, I shall take your name and exit the sect. The sect''s future will be in good hands with you."

    Qin Tianwen stared at Yuan Ji nkly. Is my grandmaster an idiot to believe something like this?

    But he was suddenly smiling in secret. That mean that he can ess all the cultivation manuals,  resources in the future and have the ultimate authority over anyone. Of course he is going to ept such an offer like this. He will be a real idiot if he did not ept it!

    If you want my trash name, then by all means take it. I don''t mind. Haha. All I want is your sect master position!

    Elder Mei Yiling was smiling encouraging to him, "Tianwen, please ept the leadership position!"

    Even Elder Qianyu Fen was smiling, "Yes, please ept it."

    Because the two most senior elders had already spoken, the other elders found it hard to protest. They had wanted to say that Qin Tianwen was too young and his cultivation realm level was too low. Moreover, he was even using his grandmaster''s name to take over the sect leadership position. But because the grandmaster had invoked the name of their patriarch grandmaster, they did not dare to disagree.

    In the most normal circumstance, Elder Mei Yiling and Elder Qianyu Fen would surely disagree with Yuan Ji and even quarrel with him openly. But at this moment they were actually thinking, "Is it because Bufan is trying to be with me so that he has cooked up something like this?"

    The two senior elders were suddenly looking flustered and blissful as they turned to look quietly at Yuan Ji¡­

    Qin Tianwen wasughing jovially in his heart. It was because he was trying to hide his great ecstasy. Soon he would be the official prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of the Divine rity n because the current grandmaster had suddenly gone senile.

    He was already thinking of brutally fukding and ying with all the female prot¨¦g¨¦s in the sect!

    Of course good lucks will alwayse to him. It is because he is the destined son of heavens. He even has a formidable cultivation cheat to aid him! Maybe this prophecy is real after all.

    Yuan Ji grinned at him, "Good luck. I''m sure that you will not disappoint me."

    After hosting a quick ceremony for the ''Zuo Bufan'' to be the new grandmaster, Yuan Ji had left in a hurry the very night with Bai Qianfeng, Xue Qianxue, Yuxian, Little Princess, Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan while muttering. "I''m not going to let you green my women. I don''t care who you green but definitely not mine."

    The maidens were startled that Yuan Ji had hastily told them to pack up and leave with him overnight.

    "Where are we going?"

    "We''re now going to find Ling Feiyue and Jiajia. I''m going to green them as well."

    Everyone: ???

    Yuan Ji shook his head, "Oh no, I am the MC now. So I can''t use the word green anymore. Muhaha! I am not leaving any of them behind to let you green me. So goodbye!"

    Bai Qianfeng waspletely stunned by what Yuan Ji had done. Now he had be Qin Tianwen while the MC had suddenly be Zuo Bufan¡­

    He hadpletely screwed the Dream Trial¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Many yearster when Zuo Bufan had finally shown his true colors and were trying to unite the entire fraternity under his tyrannical banner, Yuan Ji had stepped forward to stop him in a secret duel.

    In that duel, he had said to Zuo Bufan. "I know that you have a heaven-defying cheat that can defeat any cultivator that that is a realm higher than you. Moreover you are a saint now and have a heaven-step divine sword."

    Yuan Ji was able to utter out the cultivation cheat because he was now the MC and he did not need to suffer from any bacsh. He was actually only revealing his own secrets.

    "I actually just have a heaven-step precious sword and my cultivation realm is still an initial saint after so many years while you are now a heaven-defying great saint."

    What did Yuan Ji did all these days?

    He was naturally not cultivating but was enjoying thepany of his harem. To him, there was no point trying to cultivate because his cultivation realm in the Dream Trial could not be carried over to his real life.

    Instead, he was fully focused on mastering his Divine Heart Recite which was a spirit profound art that existed in his consciousness.

    The external, internal, power profound arts and most profound arts cannot be brought over from the Dream Trial because they must be exhibited from a real body. However state of divinity like the Divine Heart Recite is able to do so.

    In the meantime he had even found some extra time as he be the grandmaster of the artistic arts like music and etiquette.

    "You are pathetic and destined to lose to me, just like you did many years ago." Zuo Bufan coldly said to him.

    <o>,m Yuan Ji coolly said, "Even though my cultivation realm level is lower than you, my weapon is inferior to you and even my profound arts are weaker than you but I have the MC''s golden halo and plot armors."</o>

    Zuo Bufan: ???

    Although there were no witnesses to that epic duel but Yuan Ji emerged as the triumphant one as he reunited with his consorts.

    He only got one line of words to describe his victory. "No one can fight against fate."

    In thest days in the Dream Trial, he began to spend a little more time with Bai Qianfeng and Yuxian because he knows that he will not see them again and he will be missing them. It is because it is all a transmigration dream.

    The Dream Trial actually onlyst a short time and after Yuan Ji had killed Zuo Bufan, he knew that he had to return to the real life.

    "Good bye everyone¡­" There was a great sadness in his heart.

    "Qianfeng, Yuxian¡­especially Yuxian, it is so good to see and experience the things that we never have¡­"

    "Little Princess¡­in this life, we are doing good, right? I get to see you every day and I''m not tired of being with you anymore. I don''t care if you want to dual cultivate with me every day if I have the chance to meet you again¡­"

    "Yan''Er, Chengxi, Feiyue, Qianxue¡­good bye¡­I will see the two of you real soon¡­"

    "I didn''t find Jiajia in here¡­"

    Just before he had exited the Dream Trial, Bai Qianfeng had suddenly turned to say to him with woeful eyes. "This goddess here is the Abyssal Null Goddess¡­"

 Chapter 113 Exiting The Dream Trial

    There was a blinding white light as Yuan Ji transmigrated out of the Dream Trial.

    Before he knew it, he was cast out of the golden door and back to a familiar white grand hall. As he tried to shake off his disorientation, he was immediately surrounded by an excited Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as they greeted him delightfully.

    "You''re back¡­"

    "How is the trial?"

    "Did you manage toplete your soul tempering?"

    "It''s alright. Don''t take it to heart¡­"

    "It is only a trial¡­"

    "Just go for the experience¡­"

    "Hope you didn''t get more heart demons¡­"

    "How are you feeling?"

    Yuan Ji grinned as he looked at the two maidens, "I really miss the two of you." As he had said that, he was holding them into his tight embrace as he muttered softly. "Thank you."

    When he had said thank you, his eyes were also looking at Xiaobai who was looking at him with a woeful look...

    Diviner Mo Ming was smiling awkwardly, "Actually I should have warned you against taking the Cunning and Ruthless option. This setting may be a little too hard for you. It is as good as not taking the trial and your inner demons may even multiple¡­"

    All of a sudden Diviner Mo Ming was gasping as he checked Yuan Ji''s soul sea with his divine sense. "This¡­this is impossible?! Your soul sea is so pure now?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "My soul sea has always been pure. Haha."

    There is no way for Yuan Ji to actually know if his soul sea is pure or impure. That is because only a few cultivators like Diviner Mo Ming has the special divine sense to discern it and it will take thousands of years of cultivation to refine such ability. This is like a specialty profound art by itself.

    Diviner Mo Ming had a solemn countenance as he said, "In fact, I have never seen anyone soul sea as pure as yours other than Qianxue. It seems that you have sessful tempered your soul force sessfully."

    Yuan Ji was perplexed as heughed, "Did I? Haha. I''ve thought that I have screwed everything up."

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was startled when she had heard Diviner Mo Ming and she quickly checked Yuan Ji''s soul sea. To her astonishment, it was exactly like what he had just mentioned to everyone, Yuan Ji''s soul sea was actually extremely pure!

    His soul tempering was actually a super sess!

    "Take a look at your soul sea. Do you feel differently?" Diviner Mo Ming said curiously.

    Yuan Ji did as he was told before he gasped, "Um? I am now at the peaked middle-tier sacred saint level¡­"

    He was at the mortal-step and now he had jumped three steps to reach the peak of the middle-tier sacred saint level. Not only did his spiritual sea not deplete due to his expanded spiritual boundaries but his soul sea is also brimming with misty spiritual force as though he is about to breakthrough to the upper sacred saint level.

    It was not only his profound strength that had increased but his soul strength had also increased too!

    In all the seven cultivation realms, there is an associated state of divinity that creates the disparity between the cultivators. For example, the fifth realm cultivation realm is known as the Energy Level, the sixth realm cultivation realm is known as the Spirit Level and the seventh realm cultivation realm is known as the Soul Level.

    Every realm has an initial, middle and upper grade to affect the disparity in profound strength in the soul sea. Every grade has a half-step, mortal-step, earth-step, heaven-step and peak to affect the profound strength as well.

    However, that is when the differences end. Because every step actually has a subtle 10 level disparity to affect the profound strength.

    For example:

    Each time a fifth realm golden celestial advances in the small tiers, a gain of 10% of profound strength is expected.

    Each time a sixth realm golden supremacy advances in the small tiers, a gain of 20% of profound strength is expected.

    Each time a seventh realm golden saint advances in the small tiers, a gain of 30% of profound strength is expected.

    Taking the example of a fifth realm cultivator, a small tier consists of Grade and Step which can affect the profound strength of the cultivator which gives roughly 10% more profound strength than the average fourth realm cultivators.

    Starting from the half-step, roughly 2% profound strength can be gained per step, gaining roughly 10% for each tier (which consists of initial, middle and upper). So it is not wrong to say that a peak upper golden celestial is 30% stronger than a fourth realm peak cultivator.

    On paper this theory is technically correct. However, this does not take into y the aptitude of the cultivator which has a level 1 to 10 for each step. For the fifth realm level, each level will affect profound strength by 1%.

    An average cultivator usually has a rating level of 3 in the steps. A genius cultivator will usually have a rating of 5. A rating level of 6 to 10 can only be achievable with the profound arts.

    Because an average cultivator usually have a rating level of 3, most small tier increase is actually 13% per tier or 39% disparity between an average peak fifth realm cultivator and an average peak fourth realm cultivator.

    In terms of disparity, a peak fifth realm cultivator will be able to force a peak fourth realm cultivator to take a small step with every exchange (assuming that 1% profound strength is also equaled to 1% profound power).

    Although 39% is not considered to be too overpowering and peak fourth realm cultivators can still hope to defeat a peak fifth realm cultivator, they have to be very good. It is because this 39% also affects the drain in their profound strength after each exchange due to the disparity of profound power

    Put it this way. If a stroke needs 10 points of full profound strength to use. After exchanging a blow with a peak fifth realm cultivator, the profound strength will actually increase to 13.9 points due to profound power disparity.<sub> </sub>

    Not only that, the peak fifth realm cultivator also have the defenses of profound aura which they gain at the fifth realm level and a golden body which shores up their defenses.

    Even though the disparity is only 39% but in reality, it is actually quite difficult for a single peak fourth realm cultivator to take down a single peak fifth realm cultivator because in terms of soul sea, profound strength, profound power, profound defenses, profound energy recovery and of course, golden celestials can even regenerate their minor wounds in battle.

    When Yuan Ji was at the fifth realm level, he was really good in the Energy Level. It is because he is a sword energy practitioner. Therefore his aptitude is actually a 5. Because he has the practice of his Major Heavens Sword which is an advanced sword energy practice, his rating level bes a 6.

    Yuan Ji is above average in this aspect and even twice as strong as most of his peers when he was a fifth realm cultivator. When he had be a sixth realm cultivator, his fifth realm rating level was improved to a 7 due to the Major Heavens Sword. When he was a middle tier saint, his rating level improved to 7.5 and when he had recently mastered the 8th level of the Major Heavens Sword, his rating level is now an 8.

    But since most cultivators did not care how strong Yuan Ji was at the fifth realm level because there is a huge disparity of 100% between a sixth realm level and a fifth realm level cultivator so let skip to the seventh realm level at which Yuan Ji is currently at.

    Yuan Ji soul rating level is currently at a perfect 10.

    This means that Yuan Ji profound strength is on average 70% stronger than most saints of the same realm level because most of them only have an average rating level of 3. And each rating is a 3% disparity. On average Yuan Ji is 21% stronger in the same saint tier and it will be 42% if they have two tiers disparity!

    He is even now stronger than some great saints too!

    Diviner Mo Ming was staring nkly at Yuan Ji, "What did you do exactly inside the Dream Trial to have such a heaven-defying oue?"

    Because Yuan Ji had too many inner demons in his heart, Diviner Mo Ming could tell that his soul level was only 1.5. It is worse than the average 3 and iparable to Xue Qianxue who had a 9.

    A rating level of 8 for the Soul Level is already considered to be perfect and Xue Qianxue is more than perfect because no one ever got a 9.

    But Yuan Ji now got a perfect 10 which make his soul purer than pure. From 1.5 to 10 is too exaggerating!

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was also stunned. It was because she had been with Yuan Ji in the Dream Trial and his actions were all about greening the MC and preventing the MC from greening him.

    How is it possible for Yuan Ji to temper his soul sea to be so perfect?

    Diviner Mo Ming was stammering, "Only if someone chooses the Cunning and Ruthless setting which is the most difficult setting can the soul sea be so perfect. Usually most people that choose this setting may die in the trial or go insane. But you have actually sessfully ovee your soul tempering to this degree¡­"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly interrupted him, "Wait a minute! What did senior say just now? I may die if I choose this setting? Why didn''t you tell me?"

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled weakly, "You seem to be in a hurry and keeps rushing me. So I didn''t have the time to warn you. If your soul is too weak and you die inside the trial, naturally your soul may dissipate as a result. That is suppose to bemon knowledge, am I right?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    No wonder I was going insane inside the Dream Trial¡­crapmon knowledge? I didn''t know!

    Diviner Mo Mingughed weakly, " But I did tell you that this setting is for the MC, am I right?"

    "You didn''t tell me that I am not the MC." Yuan Ji said with great sarcasm.

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled weakly, "There is a chance that you can be the MC. It all depends if your soul sea is pure or impure. So you are the viin?"

    Yuan Ji gave a sheepish look before he answered, "I am indeed the viin Zuo Bufan."

    He had suddenly discovered that he was being surrounded by the other elders who were all asking him eagerly, "How did you ovee this trial? Please share with us¡­"

    "Well, I''m afraid that this is something that I cannot share with you. It is a soul tempering trial after all. I hope you can understand. If I tell you how I do it then your soul cannot be tempered properly." Yuan Ji replied sheepishly.

    It was only a half-truth but Yuan Ji was not wrong. Only if someone was brought to hell would his soul be tempered properly. During the Dream Trial, he was brought to hell and was at the lowest point in his life. If he had told the others what he had experienced then they would not be experiencing the hell that he had been through.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were pleading with their eyes, "My lord, please tell us when you are free alright? It is not like we are taking the Dream Trial¡­"

    But Yuan Ji replied firmly, "Nope. I''m not saying a word or it will be detrimental to my soul sea."

    Xue Qianxue asked him curiously, "Will it affect your soul sea if you only tell us?"

    "Yea. Because I may be boastful, that''s why. I need to be humbled."

    Ling Feiyue smiled to him, "I see! This makes sense. Do you know that Qianxue and I are so worried about you¡­"

    "Oh. Haha¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was sighing silently. He didn''t want to tell anyone that his sessful soul tempering was due to his desperate measures to green the MC instead. And he also changed the names of everyone including the MC.

    But she was soon smiling in secret. "You¡­are now worthy of this goddess¡­"

    All of a sudden she was startled as she examined her soul sea to gauge her spiritual sea in a bid to gauge her profound strength recovery. It was because she had suddenly discovered that she had lost her deste force in her soul sea and it was reced by pure spiritual force.

    "What is going on here? My soul sea has mutated and I''ve be a righteous immortal goddess? This is not just his soul tempering trial but mine as well?"

    Suddenly she had remembered Yuan Ji''s haunting words to her. "Even if this is a Dream Trial, don''t live a life full of regrets."

    He didn''t live a life full of regrets and that is why he had ovee the Dream Trial against all impossible odds. Then what about me? Did I regret our couple life in the Dream Trial? In the Dream Trial, I am Bai Qianfeng, his consort and he is my lord...

 Chapter 114 Return To The Five Heavens Peaks

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were once again flying on the Spirit Crane. And of course there was also Xiaobai who was cuddling in Yuan Ji''s arms and she was licking his fingers.

    Xue Qianxue saw what Xiaobai was doing and she muttered, "Weird. I don''t remember Xiaobai has this habit of licking your fingers?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Of course she does. She has this habit of licking my fingers for many years now."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ???

    They were now heading toward the Five Heavens Peaks where the Emperor Hall Sect was. Before his duel, he was going to see Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan again. He had promised them that he would return just before his duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and he intended to keep his promise.

    While they were on the flight, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were suddenly giggling as they asked him. "Come on, there is no one else now. Surely you''re not that mean and don''t want to tell us how you have ovee the Dream Trial? We are your consorts!"

    The two great saintesses were now jostling him left and right as they disyed their most mesmerizing demeanors to force him to drop his defenses.

    "Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    "My dear¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was grinning as she showed him her beautiful exposed thigh, "I''ve already taken the Dream Trial once before so I can''t take it again. So no harm telling me¡­"

    "I don''t have 1 billion high grade soul jewels hehe¡­" Ling Feiyue wasughing softly and pressing her bosoms on his back.

    "How do you beat the Cunning and Ruthless MC?"

    Yuan Ji sighed before he said, "He may be the Cunning and Ruthless MC but he is also a greedy MC."

    "Greedy MC?" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue pondered at the same time before they gasped together, "Don''t tell me that you have actually tried to bribe the MC? You can actually bribe the MC?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "I didn''t bribe him. I y upon his greed actually. I give him all that he wants."

    Xue Qianxue was extremely perplexed, "That doesn''t exin your final fate and how you have managed to temper your soul.  What extreme hardship did you go through?"

    Even Ling Feiyue was staring nkly at him.

    They just could not understand what was going on!

    "Why not I share with you my experiences during my Dream Trial and you shall tell me yours?" Xue Qianxue was winking her most enthralling cuteness at him.

    Yuan Ji of course did not want to tell them that he had shamelessly changed and took over the MC''s name, including the MC''s ''supposed'' consorts for himself.

    He could only say that the MC was an idiot for switching name with him without knowing that he was actually changing his fate with him. Muhaha. But he will keep this in his heart. No one except Xiang Li will ever know this secret of his.

    Bai Qianfeng naturally did note into his mind. It was because she was the Trial Helper and not real.

    "Ji Yuan is always doing weird stuff." Ling Feiyue sighed softly.

    Yuan Ji frowned, "We are not at the Eon Firmament Mountains now. You can stop calling me Ji Yuan now. Remember you are supposed to be addressing me as Yuan Ji."

    "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "I like calling you this way."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Then Ling Feiyue said to Xue Qianxue, "Sister Qianxue, let me tell you something interesting. Do you want to know?"

    "What is it?"

    "I tell you how Ji Yuan bes the only core prot¨¦g¨¦ of his old master, alright? Keke."

    "Alright! Please tell me!"

    Yuan Ji muttered almost incoherent, "My shameful past is not worthy to be brought up."

    "Do you know that his master will only ept a core prot¨¦g¨¦ if his prot¨¦g¨¦s can survive a beating from him for one hour?"

    "What?! His old master is so mean?"

    "Guess what Ji Yuan did in the end?"

    "What he did? Um! Is this the answer? Waa¡­he bribed his master?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Feiyue, you don''t need to tell the whole world about it¡­"

    "What are you afraid of? There is only Sister Qianxue here. If I am in a bad mood then I will tell your other two consorts about it too. Keke."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Unknown to Ling Feiyue and the rest, the Abyssal Null Goddess was quietly listening to their conversations. So this is his story? Every day I am learning a little more about him¡­

    "Let me tell you what he did in the Lotus Sword Mansion with me¡­"

    "There was one time that I told him not to take the yellow portal to conserve our profound strength and to take the blue portal to go up to the next level. Do you know which portal he took?"

    "He took the yellow portal?"

    "Precisely! Sister Qianxue, you are so smart!"

    "He really took the yellow portal? I am only guessing¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "He told me my suggestion is a wise one to take the blue portal but instead he took the yellow portal. I feel like pping him that time but s, I was proven wrong¡­"

    "What happens¡­"

    Ling Feiyue told Xue Qianxue what had happened in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trial.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "The two of you have so fun in the trials. Let''s go for another one together¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled shyly, "I had also learnt that we are actually together for the past three lifetimes too. This is actually our fourth lifetime together..."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xiang Li, I want to kill you¡­

    Xiang Li wasughing in Yuan Ji''s soul sea, "It is all thanks to me!"

    While the two maidens were chatting, the Abyssal Null Goddess was listening intently and there was a burning envy in her eyes.

    "Sister Qianxue, do you remember that time when I ask him to peep at you?"

    "That is my most embarrassing moment¡­yes why?"

    "We have given him specific instructions to follow but he never follows¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Ahem!" Yuan Ji coughed weakly. "Can we please don''t dig up the past?"

    Xue Qianxuepletely ignored Yuan Ji andughed shyly, "Do you know that at that time I was actually quite afraid. I thought that I was ambushed by a superior saint but it is actually him! His lightless profound art is really not weak at all. Did he practice his stealth a lot by sneaking around the bathrooms?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Come to think of that, he seems like a pro when he is walking on the roof and when he is sneaking around. Sister Qianxue, we must be careful when we are around him in the future!"

    Yuan Ji looked down from the Spirit Crane and he felt like jumping down from the sky to the bottomless abyss below so that he could hide his flustered face.

    "Sister Qianxue, I forgot to tell you that he had written a poem in the Lotus Sword Mansion just for me. Let me recite it to you. The heavenly smiles of the Goddess Maiden Feiyue is unparalleled, her mesmerizingughter danced with the gentle winds, fills my heart with her endless delight."

    Yuan Ji was muttering almost incoherently, "I am actually not delighted at the moment even though I can see your beautiful smiles..."

    Xue Qianxue immediately hit Yuan Ji on his chest, "This is so unfair! I want my own dedicated poem as well!"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "No inspiration and my brain is dead now."

    "Why are you so awful to me after you have married me?" Xue Qianxue puffed.

    "Erm, I really can''t remember that I am nice toward you before we are bonded together. I thought I was always running away from you instead." Yuan Jiughed.

    Xue Qianxue pinched him on his thigh as she chuckled, "This saintess here shall teach you how to be respectful to me. C''mon! Recite a poem for me!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "On the wings of the Mystic Crane, the fierce Maiden Qianxue¡­"

    "No!!! I don''t like this one." Xue Qianxue was hitting him and she had almost caused the two of them to drop from the sky.

    "What. You are so hard to please¡­" Yuan Jimented. "You know that I am holding Xiaobai now and can''t retaliate¡­"

    Ling Feiyue panicky stopped Xue Qianxue, "No fighting on a fragile flight! We may all fall¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    For the next three days, the two maidens had chatted nonstop and they had shared many intimate things.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess had learnt many things about Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Yuan Ji. She learnt how they had got together because of a poem that Yuan Ji had once wrote and how a maiden who was called Xia Jiajia had setup all three of them to meet on that fateful day.

    She resisted the temptation to revert to her true form and to talk to them.

    She mused to herself. This goddess has been with Ji Yuan for hundreds of moons. During this period, he had dedicated a hundred poems to me. I will always remember the poems that he had dedicated to me in my heart¡­

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had stood up on the Spirit Crane and he was saying gravely. "We are now above the Five Heavens Peaks now but something is happening below."

    The mountains below were crawling with thousands of cultivators from over a hundred celestial ns!

    Then the three of them saw a dreadful sight; a monstrous deste beast was seen at the edge of the mountains.

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply, "Epic deste beast¡­at least seventh rank¡­"

    <o>,m There are altogether nine ranks to a deste beast in the Celestial Realm and every rank has three sses to denote the threatening level of the deste beast; Primordial, Profound and Epic.</o>

    A profound ss deste beast will always be twice as powerful as a primordial ss deste beast of the same rank while an epic ss deste beast can be many times stronger depending on the species of the deste beasts.

    The epic ss of any deste beasts is always more dangerous and mysterious that any primordial and profound ss. Luckily epic ss deste beasts are not easy to be encountered, are extremely rare and only exist among the seventh rank or higher deste beasts.

    Unfortunately, even an epic seventh rank deste beast can be considered to be stronger than a ninth rank profound deste beast.

 Chapter 115 The Epic 7th Rank Desolate Beast (1)

    A six horn mammoth deste beast that was ten times as tall as the tallest cultivator was seen at the edge of the mountains. It was also extremely massive; its whole body was covered with thick armor tes and there were four razor metallic wings attached to its back.

    A thin purple deste aura outlined its entire body and every step that it had made was creating  a rippling shockwave on the ground.

    Most of the cultivators had never seen anything like this before. They know that this was an epic deste beast but there was no name to it.

    It was because epics are all unique and no one knows how they evolve.

    So they called it the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend.

    But one thing was for sure today. This Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend would be turning the entire Five Heavens Peaks into a wastnd for many decades and even centuries toe.

    Although there were thousands of cultivators but they did not dare to engage it anymore and there were looks of resignations from everyone.

    In thest few days alone, several celestial ns in the vicinity were allpletely destroyed by this monster alone and thousands of cultivators were in while fighting it.

    A seventh rank deste beast is equivalent to a saint in terms of profound defenses and recovery. Its profound might is naturally not taken into consideration because no cultivators ever have the profound strength and power to equal a seventh rank deste beast.

    Although this Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend is smaller than an eighth and a ninth rank deste beast, it is stronger than a ninth rank profound deste beast.

    Its epic status was marked by its powerful deste profound aura as evidenced by the thin purple deste outline aura that could be seen like a blinding halo.

    This was exactly like Ling Feiyue''s Six Realms Divine Art which could condense her golden animus into a thin but pronounced bright dark halo.

    Thin halo in this case did not mean that the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend was weak. On the contrary, it means that that the profound animus aura of the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend was extremely powerful and was a peak deste beast!

    Therefore this thin bright halo around it not only marked it as an epic deste beast but it also revealed to all the cultivators that this monster was extremely dangerous.

    The Five Heavens Peaks is a mountain range that had an average spiritual vein and therefore from time to time, powerful deste beasts will emerge from the deste mists below the mountains to rampage it.

    The richer the spiritual aura it is in the mountains, the less chance that a powerful deste beast will dwell at the bottom. The poorer the spiritual aura is, the opposite is true at the bottom; the deste aura will be extremely strong and hence there are many high ranking deste beasts.

    The Five Heavens Peaks therefore is actually a dangerous ce with many third, fourth and even asional fifth rank deste beasts roaming above the deste mists.

    Although there was an asionally sixth rank deste beast in the past, there never was any deste beast that was higher than a seventh rank deste beast in the past.

    But the appearance of this Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend changed everything. It was even stronger than a ninth rank profound deste beast!

    There were more than a hundred golden celestials and more than thirty thousand cultivators that were now surrounding it but they were helpless against it.

    The entire mountain was littered with thousands of dead bodies!

    Once again the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend had spread its four wings like the sails of a great ship and dozens of profound projectiles were raining all around it, exploding thunderously upon impact.

    Immediately hundreds of cultivators that could not evade in time were either wounded or killed by the gigantic profound projectiles which were equaled to the size of a man!

    The Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend mmed its gigantic ws onto the ground as a moving shockwave ripped through the hiding ce of several cultivators that were hiding behind a huge boulder and exploding it into smithereens!

    "This epic monster is too strong¡­"

    "We can''t even get close to it¡­"

    "None of our profound arts and weapons works against it¡­"

    The more than one hundred golden celestials were actually led by Fairy Ye Chengxi and she was helpless against the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend.

    When the crisis happened, all the celestials in the Five Heavens Peaks had nominated Fairy Ye Chengxi to lead them because she was the Second Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect which was the strongest celestial n in the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Although she was not a sixth realm supremacy yet and there were more than a dozen golden supremacies among the one hundred golden celestials but they had readily nominated her for the leadership role.

    In the past when such a crisis had happened, it was usually Ji Yuan who had led all the cultivators in the Five Heavens Peaks to fight the deste beasts.

    It was because Ji Yuan was the strongest cultivator in the Five Heavens Peak.

    Now that a simr crisis had happened, everyone just decided to nominate Fairy Ye Chengxi to lead them. After all, she was also a Sword Saintess with an exceptional sword skill.

    This was actually the very first time that the Five Heavens Peaks had encountered such a threatening cmity that caused all the golden celestials in the Five Heavens Peaks to exit their cultivation retreat to handle this crisis.

    This was also the first time that more than a hundred golden celestials from the Five Heavens Peaks had actually gathered together.

    Usually there were only around thirty active golden celestials or so in the Five Heavens Peaks, with the rest of the golden celestials always in their cultivation retreat.

    Although there were more than a hundred celestial ns in the Five Heavens Peaks, most of the influences were just so and so in strength and the highest realm cultivators were the sixth realm supremacies.

    As a matter of fact, many of the elders and even sect masters of the celestial ns in the Five Heavens Peaks is not even a golden celestial.

    This is how weak many of the celestial ns are.

    Therefore when Xia Jiaqing had formed the Emperor Hall Sect with four other golden supremacies, the Emperor Hall Sect had quickly be a rising power.

    The truth was that most of the celestial ns were actually too weak to oppose the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was almost in tears as she watched the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend continued its path of destruction to its next destination and that was the mountain peak of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Her sword energies attacks were totally ineffective against this epic monster.

    "I can''t even hurt it with my strongest attack at all. I can''t even protect what my lord has left for me¡­"

    All the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect were sharing her pain.

    Old Liu Xuan was shaking his head with great sorrow¡­

    All the golden celestials from the other celestial ns were all shaking their heads. Many of them had grievous injuries.

    They had just attacked this Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend with everything that they got but despite their thousands, they were all helplessly ughtered by it and they could not even scratch it or to cause it to slow down.

    Next to Fairy Ye Chengxi were Elder Li Ye, Elder Ji Hao, Elder Jin Yuyun and Shangguan Yan. They were all looking extremely helpless.

    Shangguan Yan said quietly, "Only saint level cultivators can hope to slow it down¡­"

    Elder Ji Hao clenched his fists as he said with trembling voice, "Even saints cannot stop this monster. My mother¡­was killed by a seventh rank profound beast and this monster is more powerful than a ninth rank profound beast."

    Shangguan Yan lowered her eyes, "We have requested help from the other regional powers to send reinforcements. But they will only be interested to help if we give them 20% of the mining rights in our Five Heavens Peaks."

    Elder Jin Yuyun hummed coldly, "These greedy bastards are not chivalrous at all! They don''t even have a single saint cultivator and yet they want to profit from us first."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said quietly, "We cannot me them. After all, an epic deste beast isn''t something that most celestial ns will be willing to deal with."<sub> </sub>

    Guo Taiming was panicky saying to Fairy Ye Chengxi, "My White Blossom Peak may be the next ce to be destroyed after the Orthodox Sword Sect. Where is Pce Master Yuan Ji? Is he still in his cultivation retreat?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi did not answer him because she was inhaling a new breath of vital energy for her next battle.

    She raised her sword once more before she shed into the path of the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend as she descended from the mountain, stunning the tens of thousands of cultivators that were helplessly watching.

    "Sister, no!" Shangguan Yan gasped with shock.

    Old Liu Xuan was stammering, "Second Pce Mistress has not recovered from her injuries yet¡­"

    Elder Jin Yuyun gasped with shock, "Second Pce Mistress¡­"

    All of the prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Orthodox Sword Sect and the Emperor Hall Sect were all shouting or crying when they saw that Fairy Ye Chengxi had gone down to challenge the terrifying epic monster.

    When Li Ye saw that Fairy Chengxi had challenged the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend below, he struggled to get up immediately but he ended up copsing helplessly into the arms of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Emperor Hall Sect. His injuries were not light and he almost got himself killed earlier. If he was not a golden celestial, he would have been dead now.

    Guo Taiming was actually not seriously injured. Although half of the cultivators presented still had theirbat strength but they could not hurt the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend. Therefore, he did not dare to jump down to the mountain path below to fight the epic monster. He just did not have the courage.

    In the past few days alone, dozens of golden celestials and thousands of cultivators had all fallen in battle.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi fluttered her beautiful eyes as she said gently to the approaching sight of the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend, "My old master often says that there are no unbeatable foes. Everyone has a weakness. If you can''t beat it then it means that you are not trying hard enough."

    She was also silently saying. The Orthodox Sword Sect is the ce where I have my fondest memories with my old master. I can''t let it be destroyed without doing a thing...

    The Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend was not naturally bothered by a lone cultivator. It simply raised his gigantic w and mmed the ground, causing a profound shockwave to rush toward Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    At the same time because its mming shockwave was so powerful, it caused the mountains to shake and the boulders to fall from the sides of the mountains. Several unlucky cultivators that were too near the edge were sent crashing to their deaths.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi did not dare to take the iing shockwave directly. Instead, she mustered her profound energies to unleash a sword energy wave before she leapt out of the way.

    Her sword energy wave was of course dissipated quickly by the iing profound shockwave. Even though she had leapt out of harm''s way but the profound shockwave seemed to have an adverse effect on her profound strength, causing her profound strength to be drained almostpletely.

    The power disparity between them was just too great and moreover this time she was fighting this epic monster alone. Therefore the profound shockwave had snapped her of her strength.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was stunned. Earlier when they were all fighting against this epic monster together, she had not felt the profound shockwave was this powerful. It was because the animus of the profound shockwave was being shared between all the defenders.

    Now that she was fighting it alone, just the animus of the profound shockwave alone was enough to drain her remaining strength.

    The Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend was just using a minor attack on Fairy Ye Chengxi. It was not bothered if Fairy Ye Chengxi could evade or not. It was just a matter of time only.

    It had suddenly spread its four wings again and without warning, dozens of flying profound energies were firing all around it. Whether it was Fairy Ye Chengxi or the cultivators at the top of the mountains, no one would be spared from the destructive outbursts of the dozens of profound energies!

    All of a sudden a beaming sword had descended from the heavens and had smacked the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend on its armored face, causing the dozens of profound energies to fly off course into the sky and into the sides of the surrounding cliffs.

    This beaming sword was not a real sword at all and was an illusion of a real sword as it quickly dissipated into profound energies.

    Everyone was stunned by this disy. There was a powerful sword energies cultivator in the vicinity that they did not know of?

    All of a sudden two golden animus and one dark animus could be seennding in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi as three cultivators descended rapidly from the sky as they used their profound aura to slow down their descend.

    These three cultivators all had the profound aura of a seventh realm sacred saint level!

    On closer look, it was a man and two maidens.

    The man was really handsome and he had a nine-tail spirit fox in his arm while carrying a sword. He was grinning as he scooped up Fairy Ye Chengxi to his arm. "Chengxi, your Brother Yuan Ji is back now."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was brimming with tears, "You''re finally back! Chengxi really misses you..."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "I miss you more."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi took a look at the two maidens that were behind Yuan Ji. These two maidens had donned a curtain hat, so their appearances were hiddenpletely.

    One was in ck robe while the other was in white short skirt. Even though their appearances werepletely hidden but everyone who saw them thought that they may be very beautiful maidens because their presences had a soothing presence on everyone.

    Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun were both gasping. They had of course recognized that the ck robe belonged to Ling Feiyue. That ck robe was a rare celestium robe and was easily recognizable. As for the other maiden, they knew that she must be Xue Qianxue!

    Ji Hao muttered, "Qianxue''s legs are so snowy and beautiful¡­"

    All of a sudden Jin Yuyun hummed coldly, "Stop looking where you shouldn''t be looking!"

    But what shocked everyone was not because they had recognized Yuan Ji but because the two maidens behind had the profound aura of a great saint!

    "Great Saintess!"

    "The two maidens behind are great saintesses!"

    "We are actually seeing two great saints today? Moreover there are two and they are two great saintesses!"

    "Wonder who they are?"

    "The number of renowned great saints can actually be counted¡­"

    "We can''t see their appearances¡­"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly frowning as his limelight was suddenly stolen. "This handsome saint here is not equaled to the two great saintesses behind me? What is so great about a great saint? Didn''t I kill one only recently?"

    Xiang Liughed in his soul sea, "Yea! In your dreams!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him curiously, "Brother Yuan Ji, who are they?"

    Yuan Ji expressed out a nonchnt look, "Just some helpers that I found by the roadside."

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled as her eyes shed for an instant. She was at the Sacred Maiden Ceremony a while ago and she could recognize Ling Feiyue''s dark robe and Xue Qianxue''s gold and white dress. Plus they did not change their shoes.

    So she replied with a quiet smile, "Chengxi greets the two great saintesses, Great Saintess Xue Qianxue and Great Saintess Ling Feiyue. Please pardon Chengxi for not recognizing you at the first moment."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Please do not be so polite with us. We are sisters!"

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Sister Chengxi, please forgive us for not introducing ourselves at the earliest moment too!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi: Sisters?

 Chapter 116 The Epic 7th Rank Desolate Beast (2)

    Yuan Ji kissed Fairy Ye Chengxi on her forehead before he whispered gently to her, "Chengxi, stay on top of the mountain first. Leave this fight to us."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded lightly before she freed herself from Yuan Ji''s arms to tiptoe to the top. Her lightless profound art was extremely graceful and within a few blinks of an eye, she had already scaled up the mountain to rejoin Shangguan Yan.

    Xue Qianxue could not resist a chuckle, "I can see that your Chengxi also has your lightless profound level. I wonder how you train your lightless profound ability to this level?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Before I train them to fight, I train them to run first."

    Ling Feiyue suddenly interrupted them as she asked hastily, "Will it be alright for us to use our profound arts in full view of everyone?"

    "Will they recognize us?" Xue Qianxue was also asking anxiously.

    Yuan Ji knew that they were afraid that the others may discover their true identities and they may even get the Emperor Hall Sect into trouble. Therefore he said, "These cultivators here are mostly frogs in the well. As long as you do not shout the names of your profound arts, no one will know your origin. Moreover, the two of you are great saintesses so your profound arts will definitely be impressive and no one will suspect anything."

    The two maidens quickly nodded as they raised their divine swords.

    All these actually happened within a few blinks of an eye.

    The Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend was naturally unhappy that it got a smack on its face even though it was not hurt by it.

    Xue Qianxue had immediately disyed the 8th level of her Beautiful Maiden Swordy as she swirled her divine sword into disying several golden swords. This was her Golden Maiden Golden shes.

    As for Ling Feiyue, her divine sword had split into dozens of silver swords to rain upon the epic monster. This was the Thousand Raining Swords of her Flying Spirit Sword Art.

    Dozens of golden and silver swords were shing around them as they leapt courageously at the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend.

    Yuan Ji had walked slowly toward the Gargantuan Six Horn-Four Wing Fiend and his sharp eyes were keenly looking at all the little actions that the epic monster was making¡­

    The dozens of silver and golden profound swords that were created by the two great saintess maidens were soon smashing against the epic deste monster.

    "This¡­" Xue Qianxue was startled. Her golden sword shes werepletely deflected off the epic deste monster. Even with her great saintess profound strength, she was unable to hurt it with her most powerful sword art.

    Ling Feiyue''s profound sword art was slightly better. Thest dozen of her created profound swords managed to scratch it but the armor ting quickly mended.

    There was not even a single drip of blood from the epic deste monster.

    The epic deste monster was not amused as it smashed its heavy ws onto Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue at the same time but they were too swift and had quickly dodged out of its way.

    Yuan Ji did not flee from the heavy w attack and when itnded on the ground, it exploded a burst of thunderous profound energies that rippled the surrounding with its deadly profound energies shockwaves.

    Any cultivator that was below the fifth realm level would be killed instantly by the energies shockwaves.

    "Yuan Ji!" the two maidens shouted after him panicky.

    Although the thick dust had not settled, they were relieved when their divine senses could still pick him up.

    Yuan Ji had actually leapt into the air as he swung his divine sword with all his profound strength on the face of the epic monster, cutting its armor face with a streaking blue streak of light and even managed to blind its right eye.

    When he hadpleted his sword sh with his half-step celestial sword, the ground below him exploded thunderously and even neutralized the deadly profound energies in the vicinity.

    With that he had quickly doubled back to rejoin Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    All the cultivators were gasping above when they saw that Yuan Ji''s sword was a celestial sword!

    "It is a celestial sword!"

    "Are we seeing things?"

    "Obtaining a celestial sword is like a dream¡­"

    "But even a celestial cannot hurt this monster¡­"

    "Did you see the double halo on his celestial sword?"

    "He has a perfect harmony with a celestial sword¡­"

    One of the golden celestials was stroking his long beard as he muttered, "Hmm, the way this Yuan Ji is smacking the face of this epic deste monster really reminds me of Ji Yuan. He always likes to smack the face of these strong deste monsters for gods know the reasons why."

    "I''m beginning to miss Ji Yuan now, s. He is always so funny when he is leading us to fight the deste beasts." Another golden celestial muttered.

    "I am already missing his beautiful long beard now¡­"

    "Is he still trying his breakthrough to the seventh realm sacred saint level?"

    "Yea, he is. Only he is crazy enough to do a forceful breakthrough like this."

    "Until today, I still don''t know why he wants to take such a big risk to breakthrough to the seventh realm level¡­"

    "If he does breakthrough then he is the only saint in our Five Heavens Peaks in thousands of years and we can hold our heads high too. Haha."

    "If he doesn''t die in the forceful attempt, he will probably be cursing us for fighting an epic deste monster without informing him."

    "Let''s hope that crazy old fellow of ours does not die¡­"

    Guo Taiming smiled bitterly as he said to the other golden celestials, "Actually Brother Ji Yuan, he is¡­"

    "Actually he is what?"

    Guo Taiming smiled weakly, "Nothing¡­" It took him a lot of efforts to resist telling them that Yuan Ji was actually Ji Yuan! My Brother Ji Yuan will probably be praising me for being such a tight lip person. Haha.

    When Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan saw that Yuan Ji had walked into the attacking perimeter of the epic monster and was endangering himself, they were gasping anxiously.<sub> </sub>

    But silently they were saying. "Master is actually covering their retreat when their attacks fail. He is always like this. And he is taking the opportunity to smack the monster''s face, just to irritate it so that it will remember him and will focus its attack on him."

    Actually Yuan Ji''s attack did not really hurt the epic monster and its injured eye had fully regenerated almost immediately.

    High level deste monsters were like the golden celestials, having the ability to regenerate their wounds and organs as long as they were constantly renewing the profound energies in their soul sea.

    "Why did you do that for?" Ling Feiyue muttered. She could tell that Yuan Ji was only disying an ordinary stroke with his full profound strength and he was not using any extraordinary profound sword art.

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "I''m testing if my attack can hurt it but I guess not!"

    "We are fighting against an epic deste beast. Be serious or we will lose our lives." Ling Feiyue sighed softly.

    Even Xue Qianxue had shed him an annoyed look before saying. "We need a find a way to bring it down."

    All of a sudden dozens of energy projectiles had burst forth from the epic monster''s four wings, taking aim at Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji immediately shouted to them, "Qianxue, Feiyue. Take twenty steps to the back immediately! Qianxue, prepare your Sacred Maiden Profound Art to your highest level. Feiyue, wait for me to use the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "Then what about you?"

    Xue Qianxue was also rmed because there were dozens of high speed projectile volleys that were flying in their direction.

    "Do as I say!"

    As Yuan Ji shouted to hurry them, he had already inhaled deeply and his divine sense was already tracking all the energy projectiles that were heading in his direction.

    While he was in the Dream Trial, he had managed to be a grandmaster of the music arts and he had perfectly harmonized his body, spirit and soul as one. He had actually realized that the third stage of the Divine Heart Recite, the Natural Instinct was actually impossible for him to learn because his soul level was his weakest link. That was why he had purposely taken the opportunity to pick up the art of music and be a grandmaster in it.

    But now that his soul level had been tempered as a result of the Dream Trial, he was now wondering if he could actually attain the divine state of the Natural Instinct?

    Therefore he raised all his profound energies to his sword as he awaited the iing energy projectiles.

    With a great shout, he began to swing his sword faster and faster, as he parried, blocked and deflected one energy projectiles after another. In four blinks of an eye, he had swung his sword sixty times and caught all sixty energy projectiles with his sword, imploding it over him.

    Sixty exploding nova had burst its profound energies over Yuan Ji and when it had ended, Yuan Ji staggered over to Ling Feiyue and said, "Now! It is at its lowest ebb in profound strength after using such a devastating attack."

    Xiang Li was shouting in his soul sea, "Woot! You have finally mastered the Natural Instinct!"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly; he had never swung his sword this fast before.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and all the onlookers were stunned that Yuan Ji could actually swing his sword so fast.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue knows that his right hand is extremely fast but they did not think that he can actually swing this fast. That means that their two most powerful sword profound arts are actually useless against Yuan Ji in a direct confrontation¡­

    The third stage was the Natural Instinct in which his natural speed and reflexes would increase over the limit. He had first used his divine sense to capture all the iing energy projectiles before disying all the profound strength which he could muster to block it.

    He had actually used up 60% of all his entire profound strength in order to match the profound power of his sword energies to the epic deste monster''s energy projectiles. He had to match it to neutralize it or else the profound energy explosion would injure him. It was just that he had never expected that the profound energy projectiles of the epic monster would be this strong and he had almost miscalcted.

    "Xiang Li, I need your help!" Yuan Ji shouted in his soul sea to ask her for help.

    Xiang Li immediately understood as Xue Qianxue''s two wing sacred maiden animus became a four wing sacred maiden animus.

    At the same time there were a double white halo that shed from the divine swords of Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue.

    "What is that?"

    All the onlookers were startled by the sights that were in front of them.

    "Divine Profound Arts¡­"

    "Erm, they are all saints. Nothing weird if they have one or two divine profound arts¡­"

    "Our disparity is too great. Even having an advance profound art is good enough for our celestial n¡­"

    As Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue disyed the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon together, a beautiful beam of white light lit with the golden animus of a four wing coiling dragon had flown toward the epic deste monster.

    When the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon struck the epic deste monster, it was struck so hard that its protective dark animus hadpletely disappeared. There was a bright thunderous explosion over the massive body of the epic deste monster and the vicinity was shaking with the terrifying roars of its painful agony.

    The attack had struck it so hard that its body armor was ripped off and its purple blood was dripping on the ground like burning acids.

    Thisbined profound art that was disyed by the three of them was equaled to the profound power of a Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion. Even if this epic deste monster was tough, it would not resist itpletely. Moreover Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had all gain an increase in their profound strength after their lightning tribtion plus Yuan Ji now had the use of a celestial sword in his hands.

    However theirbined profound art was too powerful and drained them of too much profound strength. This caused them to drop to the ground after using exceeding their limits.

    This was not lost on the epic deste monster as it raised its four wings forward and immediately became four long silver spears that flew with terrifying against them!

    This epic deste monster had reacted too too fast!

    Each one of the silver spears was filled with the profound power equivalent to this epic deste monster''s devastating ws and would kill or severely pierced their golden bodies if it were to hit them at their almost defenseless state.

    Yuan Ji was stunned as he used thest of his strength to push Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue to one side, "What the heck?!"

    "Yuan Ji, what are you doing?" The two maidens cried out when they were suddenly pushed aside by him.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Someone has to pay for this tactical failure and that is me."

    None of them had any profound strength at the moment, having lost it temporary and they had to wait for their next cycle of vital breath to regain some of their profound strength.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess was startled when she saw the scene unfolding in front of her eyes¡­

 Chapter 117 The Epic 7th Rank Desolate Beast (3)

    To the immortals, epic deste beasts are known as Demonic Deste Beasts, the opposite of the Divine Spirit Beasts.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess had now assumed her true form as she said quietly, "This is merely a low level demonic deste beast and not worthy to show off in front of this goddess. This thing is toomon in the Immortal Realm and killing it is like pping a fly."

    All of a sudden a veiled maiden with a silver white cloak and wearing a silver robe had shed in front of the demonic deste monster. In just a blink of an eye, she had used her sword to slice off its armored thick neck!

    As she sliced off the thick neck of the armored thick neck, there was an afterimage of her sword that continued to sh through the rest of the demonic deste monster''s body and the profound sword energies wave of her sword exploded upward like a wall of energies that did not dissipate for several blinks of an eye.

    The demonic deste beast monster had died instantly!

    Immediately the four attacking silver spears had stopped short in front of Yuan Ji.

    All the onlookers were stunned when they saw it.

    Too fierce!

    And too powerful!

    "This is¡­who is she?"

    "She is like an immortal that has suddenly descended¡­"

    "Immortals do not exist in the celestial fraternity¡­"

    "Maybe this one is a peaked great saintess¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were homing their divine sense on the mysterious veiled maiden to read the profound signature of her cultivation realm level but strangely, there seemed to be a barrier blocking them and none of them could read her true cultivation level.

    Yuan Ji just had a narrow close shave with death!

    His attention was upon the strange veiled maiden who did not disy any extraordinary profound art but had killed the epic deste monster with a single profound sword energies attack. Even her sword was just an ordinary sword which was shattered after she had finished her attack.

    This veiled maiden in silver cloak and robe was actually the Abyssal Null Goddess. She had seized the opportunity to attack the demonic deste monster when its formidable profound aura was disabled.

    She knew that she had only one chance to attack and she had forcefully used her precious immortal strength to execute an attack. Although her sword energies attack looked ordinary but it was condensed with the immortal profound strength of a ninth realm level immortal cultivator.

    A mere seventh rank demonic deste beast that was without its protective profound aura was like a piece of tofu in the presence of her divine might.

    She was suddenly inhaling heavily now.

    Although she had regained her profound strength due to her experience in the Dream Trial but it was only to the peak upper sacred saint level and it was actually impossible for her to regain to her true peak form.

    It was because there was a restriction in the Celestial Realm that was ced on the immortal cultivators to prevent them from exercising their profound strength beyond the seventh realm level.

    But when she suddenly saw that Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were all in danger, she had reverted to her true form and had intervened with her peak immortal strength.

    This immediately caused her profound strength to rapidly drop to the initial sacred saint level and half of her spiritual seas were dissipated due to the restriction after her attack had ended.

    But this was something that she did not put it into her heart because as long as Yuan Ji was safe, she was willing to put her cultivation at risk.

    All of a sudden she had noticed that the demonic deste beast was emitting a glow from its soul core. It was a spirit entity artefact core!

    Without a second thought, she had immediately waved her hands to take it so that she could refine itter.

    Actually deste immortals are not able to refine the spirit core of the deste beasts and can only refine the spirit core of the divine beasts. This was due to the opposite alignments of their profound forces.<sub> </sub>

    But now she is a righteous immortal and she can only refine the spirit core of the deste beasts, the opposite.

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had all hastilypleted their vital breath cycle and they had shed in front of the mysterious veiled maiden with the silver cloak.

    "We thank you for your timely aid." Yuan Ji quickly offered his heartfelt thanks.

    But the veiled maiden ignored him and began to walk away.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had pulled off her veil when the veiled maiden had her back on him. This caused her long silken silver hair that she had nicely bundled up to roll down immediately to her waist level.

    This startled Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue who were panicking scolding him, "Yuan Ji! Why did you do that for? This is so rude!"

    But the silver hair maiden did not seem to be offended but had hastened her steps to walk off.

    Yuan Ji clutched the silver veil that was in his hands as he sniffed it while watching her back and he was trembling hard with emotions.

    "Qianfeng, I know it is you. Why don''t you turn around and let me look at your face? Your scents and your unmistakable beautiful silken silver hair. I can recognize you. More importantly, your spirit cor already gives you away."

    What Yuan Ji did not mention is that he knows all her little mannerism because he had been with her for countless moons. The instant that she had appeared in front of her, she was already invoking a sense of familiarity to him. When he saw the spirit cor around her neck, he knew that it was her.

    In the Dream Trial, he had tried many times to remove her unique cor but no matter how hard he had tried to, he had always failed to remove it. There were many times he had asked her how she got the cor and if she could remove it, she would always refuse to answer him.

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly paused in her tracks and she was trembling lightly.

    After a short while, she said with trembling voice. "You''re mistaken." And then she had disyed her lightless profound skill to quickly vanish from view.

    Yuan Ji turned to Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue with a grin, "Wait for me here. I''m going after her."

    With that he had also vanished from view in the next instant as he sped toward herst seen direction.

    Xue Qianxue was looking at Ling Feiyue with a startled look, "Qianfeng? Who is she?"

    Ling Feiyue returned a perplexed look, "I''ve no idea but she sure is not weak¡­"

    Xue Qianxue returned a light nod, "I''ve never seen anything close to her profound sword art before."

    Above them, the thousands of cultivators were all jumping with joy and were shouting thunderously!

    "We have won?"

    "This is so unbelievable!"

    "An epic seventh rank deste beast is dead now?"

    "All its parts are worth a great deal in cultivation resources¡­"

    "We have survived?"

    "Hahahaha¡­"

    The cultivators from the more than one hundred celestial ns were all hugging one another joyously and paying homage to their deadrades.

 Chapter 118 Qianfeng, I Want You To Be With Me!

    Bai Qianfeng aka the Abyssal Null Goddess was hiding in a small crevice crack of the mountains. Her heart was feeling extremely miserable and she was at a loss.

    Ever since she had met this unruly cultivator Yuan Ji, she was always down on her luck.

    First she had failed to kill him and was forced to acknowledge him as her master.

    Now her soul sea had even mutated and she had suddenly be a righteous immortal that she had hated.

    "What am I now? A traitor to my kind? How do I continue my battle in the heavens?"

    "I may have walked away from him but I can''t go away far from him. This ve cor binds me to him. Why am I so stupid to help him at the risk of blowing my cover¡­"

    "So this is a ve cor?" Yuan Ji asked as he jumped lightly in front of her.

    He was grinning, "Where do you think you are going? This ce has been my home for several centuries. I know every rock and hidden trails in this ce."

    Bai Qianfeng was startled that her divine sense was not able to sense his approach. She had immediately turned ashen. "You¡­when did you¡­"

    She had identally revealed that her spiritual cor was a ve cor¡­

    "Although I can''t say that my attacking profound arts are in the top ten ranking but my lightless profound art can be in the top five whenever I have the mood to make myself invisible."

    Bai Qianfeng was stunned. Although she had heard him saying it all too many times in the past, she had never truly believed him. But today, she had finally known that he was really not boasting at all.

    "This ve cor. What is it all about? Care to share with me?" Yuan Ji asked her gently. "And how do I remove it?"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "Remove it? Will you remove something that you can control and hold power to? The conditions to remove it are really simple. You must be fully aware of what it can do and you must be willing to remove the ve cor on your own free will. In this world, no one will be willing to¡­"

    "So easy? I hereby order this ve cor to be removed from my Bai Qianfeng. From now onward she will have her freedom back. Is that how it works?" Yuan Ji asked her curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng was startled as she felt her ve cor disappearing.

    "Why are you so silly? Do you know that with this ve cor, this goddess will be your ve forever and your will be my will as well. Why did you do that for?" She stammered out. "And do you know that this goddess here had even tried to kill you in the past?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Because you are my beloved consort Bai Qianfeng so how can I even allow you to wear a ve cor?"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped with an exasperated look at him, "You are not listening at all. I just said that I had tried to kill you before¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had interrupted her with a kiss on her lips, "The past is past. That isn''t important anymore. From today onward, you are you again and you''re not anyone''s ve. I only know that you''re Bai Qianfeng that I had spent hundreds of moons with. That is enough."

    Bai Qianfeng was trembling uncontroble as she fell into his embrace. She hit him lightly on his chest, "Why are you so stupid¡­"

    Then she pushed him away, "Now that this goddess is freed, I will leave you forever to continue my own cultivation. So goodbye¡­"

    "Qianfeng, be with me. I know that I may have only a week left more to live. Please apany me till to the end. I promise you that I won''t force you to do anything against your will, alright?" Yuan Ji said quietly and he was looking earnestly at her.

    He pleaded again. "Qianfeng, I really want you to be with me, alright?"

    Bai Qianfeng was trembling as she averted her eyes, "I have an immortal title¡­"

    "I know. The Abyssal Null Goddess. You had told me just before we had left the Dream Trial together." Yuan Ji sighed softly. "I''m so sorry that I didn''t think too much about it. I''ve thought that it is all a dream. Do you know how happy I was just now when I saw you again? I can never forget the hundred of moons that we had been through. Can you?"

    He added with trembling lips, "What must I do to make you stay with me?"

    Xiang Li had appeared outside of Yuan Ji''s soul sea and she was pleading, "Trial Helper Qianfeng, please don''t go. A, you are not the Trial Helper but real? Wow. I also didn''t think that I can get to see you again. It is so wonderful. Do you know that I like you the most!"

    Bai Qianfeng was suddenly flustered when she saw Xiang Li.

    She knew that Xiang Li was always peeping at them when they were making love. Peeping is the wrong word to use. Xiang Li actually watches quite openly¡­

    "You are my best friend!" Xiang Li was actually brimming with tears. "How can you leave me just like this?

    "Xiang Li¡­"

    It was the truth. They had actually be the best of friends while they were inside the Dream Trial.<sub> </sub>

    Bai Qianfeng trembled as she averted her eyes from Yuan Ji and Xiang Li, "You must do three things for me as apensation to my humiliations¡­"

    Yuan Ji was grinning all of a sudden, "Alright!"

    "Wait! I haven''t finish yet. There are more..." Bai Qianfeng hastily said, "You must dedicate another one hundred poems to me as well."

    "No problem! So you can go with me now?" Yuan Ji eagerly said.

    "No wait. You mustn''t tell anyone about me too." Bai Qianfeng quickly added with woeful eyes.

    "Oh? Why?" Yuan Ji asked curiously. "Don''t you want to know Qianxue, Feiyue, Chengxi and Yan''Er as well?"

    Bai Qianfeng was flushing lightly, "I already know them well in the Dream Trial¡­"

    "This is different. You will get to know their real self. Isn''t this a much better thing?" Yuan Ji had already taken her hands and held it tightly.

    While he was holding her hands, he was trembling. "Qianfeng, it is so good to see you again¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly before she fell into Yuan Ji''s embrace and she was weeping. "Thank you for removing the ve cor¡­"

    Xiang Li chuckled happily as she interrupted their best moments, "So when will the two of you be free to do it?"

    Bai Qianfeng, Yuan Ji: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When Yuan Ji had returned to where Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were, he was carrying a nine-tail spirit fox.

    Ling Feiyue could not resist a cold mock, "So who is this Maiden Qianfeng? Did you find her?"

    Yuan Ji grinned. "Yea! She is an old friend of mine. It is so good to see her again."

    Xue Qianxue was frowning unhappily, "So is she pretty?"

    Yuan Ji could feel that Bai Qianfeng was biting his fingers so he replied with augh, "Yea. Very pretty maiden."

    When Bai Qianfeng had heard him, she was licking his fingers again.

    Xue Qianxue hummed with a not too pleased look, "You should have introduced this friend of yours to us. She can actually y this epic deste monster with a single sword stroke so I guess that she must have some really extraordinary background. Just who is she?"

    All of a sudden Guo Taiming was calling out loudly, "Brother Yuan Ji! It is so good to see you again! Do you know that I really miss you so much?"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly happy to see Guo Taiming again as he walked to him with open arms, "Brother Guo! How are you?"

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "I am fine¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had punched him hard on his cheek and had sent him to fly backward with a tremendous crash on the cliff behind.

    Everyone, including the onlookers and Guo Tianming were all stunned by Yuan Ji''s sudden irrational action.

    "Brother Yuan Ji, why did you hit me for?" Guo Taiming asked with a perplexed look. "Did I do anything wrong?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Thank goodness that we are not in a dream. I keep dreaming that you have been greening me in my dream. Haha. I just hit you just to make sure that I am not dreaming."

    Guo Taimingughed too, "Is that so? Hoho. Brother Yuan Ji, your cultivation is getting more and more powerful nowadays. How do you even know what I am dreaming about. Haha."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Brother Yuan Ji, why did you suddenly unsheathed your divine sword and you''re pointing at me now?"

 Chapter 119 The Confession

    Before Yuan Ji returned to the Emperor Hall Sect, he said to the golden celestials that were presented. "The various parts of this epic deste beast are all precious cultivation resources. Distribute it ordingly to the celestial ns that have the most casualties. There are three celestial ns whose mountain dwellings had been destroyed by this monster. Be sure to give extras to the survivors of these celestial ns whose leadership may no longer be around to have a share of the loot distribution."

    He knew that few high level celestials would allow their bases to be utterly destroyed without a fight. This would be a sully to their respected celestial honors and many of them were probably not around to argue for their shares.

    "The Emperor Hall Sect will not take a single distribution. Distribute the share of the Emperor Hall Sect to the rest."

    "Pce Master Yuan Ji, this won''t do! Your sect should have the biggest share in the loot distribution!"

    But Yuan Ji insisted.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had also said, "The Orthodox Sword Sect will also give up on our share of the loot."

    After Yuan Ji had bid the leaders of the celestial ns what to do, Yuan Ji and his group returned to the Emperor Hall Sect.

    When he had reached the Emperor Hall Sect with the hundreds of prot¨¦g¨¦s, he heaved a soft sigh as he said to everyone. "Everyone. I like to have a chat with Yan''Er and Chengxi first."

    Then he turned to Old Liu Xuan, Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye as he said to them, "Please help me to take care of my two friends here."

    Li Ye turned to look at Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue who were still donning their curtain veils. "Pce Master, it is so good to see you again. Erm, may I know where are your two sisters?"

    Yuan Ji knew that he was asking about Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue so heughed, "They are a little yful and is still roaming the celestial fraternity."

    Li Ye smiled bitterly but said nothing. It was because after he hade to the Emperor Hall Sect to take up the position of elder, he had learnt that Yuan Ji actually did not have any sisters. At first he had thought that these two maidens in curtain veils are Hua Wuwu and Baiyue but he had quickly dismissed his initial conjecture. It was because these two veil maidens were both two great saintesses and their heights were not simr to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Yuan Ji could guess his thoughts and he was smiling weakly to himself. "I was actually not interested in Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue in the past. But I had bedded them after they had taunted me. Brother Li Ye, I am actually quite sorry to you because of this. But the truth is, they will never be interested in you because your beard is a little ugly. Even my beardless self is more handsome than you with a beard. You ought to pay more attention to your beard upkeep because in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, all the men consider their beards to be their pride. If you have ascended to the Nine Celestial Fraternity or any other celestial fraternities where the barbarian celestials there often do not have beautiful beards, your beard will surely be the most outstanding beard."

    When he had thought of the Nine Celestial Fraternity and Lu Qingyun who was beardless, he had a shiver down his spine; he had long heard that many of the celestials in the Nine Celestial Fraternity are often beardless and the men were sometimes as beautiful as the maidens.

    What a debauchery world the celestials in the Nine Celestial Fraternity must be living in, he thought with a disgusted look. I need to remind myself to buy a fake beard for my duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Before my duel with him, I have already lost my undefeatable vibes because he may mock at my beardless self. On the other hand, if he is beardless, I can mock him to no ends and dissipate his undefeatable vibes so that I can have a winning chance. Hoho¡­

    But wearing a fake beard¡­I need more time to think about it. It is after all quite a disgusting thing to wear a fake beard. I am after all a Sword Saint with my own martial pride¡­

    As Yuan Ji, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan exited the hall, Xue Qianxue chuckled. "Is there a small guest room? I like to take a little rest with my sister here and also to feed Xiaobai."

    Old Liu Xuan smiled politely, "Yes there is. Please follow me."

    As Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue followed Old Liu Xuan out of the hall, Jin Yuyun was kicking Ji Hao all of a sudden. "Have you look enough already? They''re your father''s women!"

    Ji Hao smiled weakly, "I am really not thinking of anything. Please believe me¡­"

    When Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were alone in the guest room with Xiaobai, Xue Qianxue was suddenly looking at Xiaobai with a smile. "Xiaobai, are you that Qianfeng?"

    Even Ling Feiyue was folding her arms and staring coldly at Xiaobai. "We have been with you from day one. Howe we didn''t know that you are Qianfeng?"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess pretended to look in the other way¡­

    "Actually we didn''t know that Qianfeng is actually you. But before you have left, Yuan Ji had mentioned that you are missing your spirit cor. And when you are back, we also found out that you are missing your spirit cor." Xue Qianxue giggled.

    "Therefore it is really not hard to guess that our spirit fox here actually can assume human form and is the maiden that we saw earlier. This is really a startling thing to learn." Ling Feiyue coolly added.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess: ¡­

    "So why don''t we have a little chat with each other?" Xue Qianxue asked.

    "What and who are you?" Ling Feiyue said coolly.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess knew that they had already suspected her identity. Therefore she began to revert to her original form and quickly put on a robe in the next instant.

    When Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue saw her true appearance, they were stunned; in front of them was a most peerless maiden with long silver hair. She gave off an unearthly presence and what stunned them were not her peerless demeanor but that they had recognized her as the dead maiden in the crystal coffin.

    "This¡­" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were speechless.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess said quietly, "This goddess here is the Abyssal Null Goddess. Because we''re also sisters, I shall reveal my true name to you and that is Bai Qianfeng¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng began to tell them how she had triggered the Lightning Tribtion to harm them and sent the celestial sword to sow discord between them. She also told them about the ve cor and what she had been through with Yuan Ji in the Dream Trial...

    After Bai Qianfeng had finished telling them who she was, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were both holding their tummy as theyughed jovially. "This is too funny¡­sorry¡­we are notughing at you but at Ji Yuan¡­you mean this is actually what he did in the Dream Trial? Keke..."

    Xue Qianxue giggled as she looked at Bai Qianfeng, "Sister Qianfeng, so you are really an immortal? I have an immortal for a sister?"

    "Sister Qianfeng, can you help Ji Yuan in his duel?" Ling Feiyue asked quietly.

    Bai Qianfeng sighed with woeful eyes, "I am now weaker than the two of you after my fight with the demonic deste beast. I actually have the intention to intervene but now, it is no longer possible¡­"

    Ling Feiyue said quietly, "I have a bold n but I don''t know if it will work or not¡­"

    -

    -

    -<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji was now holding tightly onto Yan''Er and Chengxi, "It is so good to see the two of you again."

    "Brother Yuan Ji¡­" Yan''Er and Chengxi were both muttering with adtion at him.

    Yuan Ji released the two of them in his hands and began to say solemnly to them, "I have a confession to make to the two of you. s, I don''t know how to put it into words."

    Then with a heavy sigh, he turned his trembling back away from them. "Actually I am your old master Ji Yuan. Sorry, I didn''t tell the two of you. The two of you must have hated me so much. But I have to tell you now at this stage or else this will be my greatest regret before my duel."

    Yuan Ji was expecting curses and wailing behind his back. But after waiting for a while, there was nothing.

    Stunned silence?

    Too shock to say anything?

    He turned around to look at them, half-expecting to see woeful tears on their faces that were caused by hurt and betrayal.

    But instead he saw Yan''Er and Chengxi looking at each other with a stunned expression.

    Finally Yan''Er and Chengxi said at the same time, "Sister, you already knew?" The two of them actually did not tell each other that Yuan Ji was actually their protege master Ji Yuan.

    Both Yan''Er and Chengxi nodded at the same time.

    This time it was Yuan Ji who was stunned as he stammered, "The two of you already knew? This is impossible¡­and¡­"

    He was too stunned to continue. All this while he had thought that they did not know who he was and he dreaded the day that they would find out that he is actually their old master.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi averted her eyes shyly, "I already knew that you''re my old master on the first day that we had met."

    Yuan Ji: First day¡­

    Yan''Er was also averting her eyes shyly, "Same here."

    Yuan Ji was stunned. Yan''Er had also recognized him on the very first day?! How was it possible?!

    Fairy Ye Chengxi slowly said, "Although I can''t recognize master''s face because you look really different without a beard but all your mannerism is exactly the same as before."

    Yan''Er lowered her head, "That''s right. Even the way you are cursing is exactly the same. If this isn''t obvious enough, you shouldn''t be talking to Guo Taiming. It is because we all know that he is your best friend."

    Yuan Ji was stammering, "I so sorry¡­I shouldn''t have¡­lied to all of you¡­if you know, why didn''t you tell me sooner?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi looked away and she was trembling, "Isn''t it good this way? If I tell you that I had already known then you will still be my old master and not my lord anymore. Do you know that Chengxi has always wanted to be with you?"

    Yuan Ji stammered, "Chengxi¡­"

    Shangguan Yan broke into tears, "I always like my old master but I am also afraid of him."

    "Yan''Er¡­why am I so bad toward you?"

    Yuan Ji held them tightly in his embrace, "The two of you are not my core prot¨¦g¨¦s but my beloved consorts now. I am so d to have the two of you with me!"

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "My lord, same here. May Yan''Er asks you something?"

    "Yes?"

    "Who are the two maidens earlier? Are they your new beloved?" Shangguan Yan giggled softly.

    Yuan Ji rubbed off the tears on her face as he replied proudly, "Yea! Let me introduce them to the two of you in a little while time."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously, "Who are they? My lord never likes to be tied down by anyone."

    Yuan Ji smiled a little bitterly. It was true that he had never liked to be tied down. It was only when he was forced to marry Shangguan Yan by Xia Jiajia that he had finally tied himself down.

    "Actually I erm¡­was captured by them. Haha."

    "Actually we do know who they are. They are Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, am I right?" Shangguan Yan giggled softly.

    Yuan Jiughed, "You must have recognized them when you are at the Sacred Maiden Ceremonyst month."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped, "How did you know?"

    "I was actually there." Yuan Jiughed. "Chengxi, you are really quite impressive when you are fighting with Jin Yuyun."

    p Fairy Ye Chengxi flushed shyly after Yuan Ji had praised her, "My lord is actually there?"</anda>

    Then she was smiling, "No wonder. I was actually a little surprised when Jin Yuyun and Jian Menghao had suddenly shown up here and told us that you had appointed them as elders here. Now this make sense if you had met them earlier. Jian Menghao had renamed himself as Ji Hao. May we know the story behind it?"

    Yuan Ji gave a sheepish look before he smiled awkwardly, "He is my son. Haha."

    "Let me share with the two of you what had happened¡­starting from how I tried to look for Xue Qianxue and was captured by her..."

 Chapter 120 My Last Instructions

    Yuan Ji never told Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan that he was almost whipped to death while he had first visited the Celestial Orthodox Sect. He just told them because he was so charming that the maidens of the Celestial Orthodox Sect were unwilling to whip him.

    Even the two saintesses from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had also fallen into his charms and hence they risked everything to help him.

    He ended the story with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue trapping him on top of a mountain, threatening him to take them as his consorts or he would never be able to leave the mountain.

    He was forced to end his story earlier than he had intended because it was getting quitete and he was supposed to talk to everyone in a little while.

    This ''little while'' actuallysted quite a long while.

    Yuan Ji''s version of the story was actually not the urate version. Along the way, he had painted himself as the perfect wless hero. He left out plenty of details to make himself look good in front of Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    Actually Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan could tell which parts are not true. Whenever their old master went ''Haha'' all of a sudden, they knew that he was trying to exaggerate his ounts and was trying to salvage some face from the story.

    But that did not lessen their adtion for him. Because everyone had their own little ws. They already knew that their old master treasured his face and he can be quite thick skinned about it.

    So when he had returned back to the hall, everyone was already waiting for them with a lot of chuckles.

    Old Liu Xuan, Jin Yuyun, Ji Hao, Li Ye, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were already waiting for him in the hall.

    Yuan Ji immediately frowned, "Why were you soughing when you saw us?"

    Old Liu Xuanughed, "Pce Master, we perfectly understand what you are doing in there."

    Yuan Ji cursed silently. My foot! This is not what you have imagined! I am just having a chat with Yan''Er and Chengxi!

    "Ahem!" He quickly cleared his throat. "First of all, let me introduce these two maidens to everyone first. Because all of you here are the people that I can trust so I am telling you who they are. But keep it within our inner circle."

    <o>,m "Feiyue, Qianxue¡­" He gently said as he looked in their direction.</o>

    When Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had removed their curtain veils together, the eyes of Old Liu Xuan and Li Ye had almost popped out.

    It was because they were extremely beautiful and peerless in their own ways. Their loveliness can even beparable to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan!

    Old Liu Xuan was stammering incoherently, "The¡­two¡­great beauties¡­are actually¡­here¡­" He did not even know how to speak properly after seeing them.

    Li Ye was gulping. He had thought that Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan are beautiful enough. Yet there are two more that are like them. But why is Ling Feiyue looking so familiar to him?

    All of a sudden he was gasping with shock. Isn''t she Ling Feiyang? To win over Yuan Wu (Hua Wuwu) and Yuan Yue (Hua Baiyue), he had sworn to be stronger so that he can defeat Ling Feiyang in the future. She is actually a maiden and such an astonishing beauty?!

    He was suddenly smiling now. It was because he felt like the top of the world now. That means that he had a good chance to be with Yuan Wu and Yuan Yue now¡­

    When Yuan Ji saw Li Ye''s expression, he knew what he was thinking about and he had a guilty look on his face. Sorry brother. I had green you already but that was an ident.

    He quickly returned his attention to everyone as he announced, "Feiyue and Qianxue are my new consorts. Qianxue will be my third pce mistress while Feiyue will be my fourth pce mistress¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she interrupted with a wave of her fan, "And Yuan Ji will be my first Dark Master of my Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Yuan Ji frowned unhappily, "First? You are going to have a second?"

    "I may consider your good offer if I am a widow." Ling Feiyue giggled.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He knew that Ling Feiyue was actually teasing him and he was also pretending to give her an unhappy frown.

    He was soon smiling again, "Third Pce Mistress will be known as Third Pce Mistress Xue while Fourth Pce Mistress will be known as Fourth Pce Mistress Ling. Tell no one about their real identities."

    Old Liu Xuan nodded nervously, "I¡­I''ve heard that¡­Fourth Pce Mistress Ling has kidnapped Third Pce Mistress Xue¡­"

    "Nonsense!" Yuan Ji hummed loudly as he raised his fists. "I am the one that instructs Feiyue to storm the Celestial Orthodox Sect to rescue Qianxue¡­haha¡­"

    When he had said that, Ling Feiyue, Qianxue, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were immediately rolling their eyes¡­

    Old Liu Xuan, Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun were immediately impressed by Yuan Ji''s stunning leadership.

    Yuan Ji was feeling quite pleased with himself. Firstly he had taken all the me to himself. As a man, this was what he was supposed to do to protect his love ones. Secondly, he got to be a hero in front of the others.

    Xiang Li was warning him in his soul sea, "You have just tempered your soul. Don''t go around making stories¡­"

    But Yuan Jiughed it off, "My soul force will be worst off if I don''t cover my women."<sub> </sub>

    Li Ye was suddenly stammering, "Pce Master...but the rumors of the fraternity says that it is Sword Saint Ji Yuan who has conspired with Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and Little Princess from the Evil Cultivation Pce to kidnap Third Pce Mistress Xue..."

    Old Liu Xuan was also muttering, "That is what we have all heard. If we have news of Ji Yuan then we must let the seven major orthodox ns know immediately. So how can it be our Pce Master? Moreover Ji Yuan had killed Sword Saintess Yuluo. Although he is from our Five Heavens Peaks but none of us dare to harbor him."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly before he said quietly, "Actually I am that Ji Yuan."

    When he had said that, Li Ye and Old Liu Xuan were so startled that they took several steps back. But when they saw that the others were not surprised, they were even more startled.

    Ji Hao grinned, "I''m my father Ji Yuan''s son and Sword Saintess Yuluo is my mother. So how can the rumors be true?"

    Jin Yuyun also said with great indignant, "Precisely! They are framing our Pce Master!"

    Even Xue Qianxue was saying unhappily, "These self-righteous cultivators are just framing my lord Ji Yuan! I will settle this score with them soon!"

    "Just keep it to yourself." Yuan Ji said quietly. "They may not know that I am Pce Master Yuan Ji yet."

    He turned to pick up Xiaobai and said, "This nine-tail spirit fox is my precious. I want the elders to give specific instructions to everyone that if they see my Xiaobai around, they are not to disturb her or to be rude to her. In fact, seeing her is as good as seeing me!"

    Bai Qianfeng licked his fingers after he had said that. She was really touched that Yuan Ji had remembered her and had even given her such a high honor.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were secretly exchanging yful nces. The two of them plus Bai Qianfeng had secretly agreed not to tell Yuan Ji that they had already known about Bai Qianfeng and what had happened inside the Dream Trial.

    Old Liu Xuan, Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun quickly acknowledged the given instructions.

    "Xiaobai is so cute. Can I hold her?" Jin Yuyun was giggling.

    Yuan Ji turned to her with a grin before he said solemnly. "No! Only I can hold her."

    Jin Yuyun: ¡­

    Yuan Ji quicklyughed, "She really has a ferocious bite. Other than me, everyone will surely be bitten by her¡­"

    "Ouch!!" Yuan Ji had suddenly yelled out.

    It was because Bai Qianfeng had suddenly bit him on his fingers and had drawn blood!

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly at Bai Qianfeng before he looked at the rest. "I told you so. Sometimes even I am not spared from her. Do you believe me now?"

    Jin Yuyun had turned ashen, "Then I''ve better not touch her¡­"

    Yuan Ji promptly announced, "There are two more announcements to be made."

    With a grin, he turned to look at Old Liu Xuan, "From today onward Old Liu Xuan will be an official elder of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Old Liu Xuan was stunned. "I¡­erm...an elder? But I can''t fight well¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed, "It is alright. You have been taking good care of the sect for me. Chengxi and Yan''Er have also been singing your praises. You will still be in charge of the Punishment Hall and I let you rmend an assistant elder to help you to run the Punishment Hall. From this day onward, you can attend all the elder meetings."

    Old Liu Xuan was brimming with tears, "Aiya. I am already so old and useless. But I thanks Pce Master nevertheless."

    He had never expected that he would be promoted to a real elder. Although he was an elder of the Punishment Hall but it was only a leadership position for the Punishment Hall and not the elder of the Emperor Hall Sect which meant a totally different thing. But today he was to be a real Elder of the Emperor Hall Sect and he was proud of it!

    Yuan Ji began to say with great solemnness as he made hisst announcement. "From this day onward, Fairy Ye Chengxi will be the acting-sect master of the Emperor Hall Sect."

    When he had announced it, everyone had a bleak look on their countenances¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was trembling lightly and she had lowered her head. This is the second time you have decided to hand over the sect leadership position to me¡­

    But Yuan Ji tried to cheer everyone up as heughed, "Tomorrow I am going for a great hunt. Li Ye, Ji Hao, Yuyun, Feiyue, Qianxue..e with me tomorrow!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had turned ashen as she gasped, "No, my lord!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Yes, I am!"

    Great hunt?

    Jin Yuyun, Ji Hao, Li Ye, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were all exchanging perplexed looks with one another.

    And why did Fairy Ye Chengxi seems uneasy about it?

 Chapter 121 The Great Hunt (1)

    The next day Yuan Ji had led Li Ye, Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue to a deserted part of the mountains.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue seemed a little unhappy with him. It was not because he had suggested a hunting expedition but because he had spent the night with Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. Therefore they felt a little lonely in the night...

    Yuan Ji seemed to be constantly checking the ground before he grinned, "We are going down the deste mists. Do you have the courage to descend the mountains?"

    Everyone was stunned.

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Yuan Ji, are you sure? Is this a known trail? We are going on an experiential training?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Nope. I have never been down here before. Therefore I don''t know how perilous it will be."

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "Why are we going down the dangerous deste mists? It is too risky. We may lose our lives."

    She was not afraid but she was afraid for Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun. It is because there is little spiritual force below the deste mists, making recovery and cultivation nearly impossible. Moreover the spiritual auras in the Five Heavens Peaks are just average and therefore the deste auras below the deste mists will be dense.

    Yuan Ji said slowly, "The appearance of a high ranking deste beast will always mean that a rare spirit nt will be spawning in its vicinity."

    Ling Feiyue shook her head as she pointed at Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun. "You are going to let these kids go with you to the deste mists below? You just need Qianxue and I. There is no need to bring these kids along."

    Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun were all stunned. They had just been called kids by Ling Feiyue¡­

    But in front of a great saintess, they were indeed just kids.

    Li Ye immediately said, "Well, I am not afraid. I''ve always wanted to explore the deste mists below."

    "I have actually gone down the deste mists dozens of times in the past. What is there to be afraid of?" Ji Hao chuckled and he was looking extremely casual. In front of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, he was just pretending to be indifferent. He just forgets to mention that in the past when he was venturing below the deste mists, he was always apanied by a dozen golden celestials and hundreds of prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    Even Jin Yuyun was saying, "Entering the deste mists is like taking a stroll. I have also done that countless times." Like Ji Hao, she had neglected to say that she was apanied by many high level cultivators of the Mystic Profound Pavilion.

    Xue Qianxue shook her head lightly, "Do you know that this is actually the wrong timing? There will probably be many high level deste beasts that are lurking below at this time."

    She was not wrong and she had finally realized that Yuan Ji was ying with everyone''s lives now. When rare spirit nts are spawning, it will attract the attention of the high level deste beasts.

    It was bing very clear to them what Yuan Ji was hunting now and she was a little afraid. It was because a rare spirit nt that can attract a seventh rank epic demonic beast may also attract several simr high level deste beasts too.

    Goodness knows how many more high level deste beasts may being up of the deste mists in theing days or even on the way!

    Yuan Ji patted Li Ye and Ji Hao on their shoulders. "That''s the spirit! Follow me tight. I will take good care of the two of you."

    Jin Yuyun stammered, "What about me?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled as he stroked Xiaobai, "You will have the protection of these two great saintesses here."

    Li Ye and Ji Hao exchanged a quiet look with each other. They were actually thinking if it may be safer with the protection of the two great saintesses rather than with Yuan Ji who looked a little unreliable.

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders, "Since everyone is agreeable to explore the mountains below then let''s make a move."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    In less than an hour, Yuan Ji had already found a trail below the deste mists.

    As they moved below the mountains, their visibility dropped drastically. While they could still see one another but they could not see too far beyond and had to rely on their divine sense to alert them of the dangers.

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "Be careful to watch your steps. The trail is steep here. You don''t want to fall to your deaths below."

    Very soon, they saw the dark shape of arge deste beast that was making the way to the top; their divine sense immediately warned that it was a fifth rank profound deste beast!

    A fifth rank primordial deste beast is already more than what most fifth realm cultivators can handle. A fifth rank profound deste beast is naturally stronger than most fifth realm cultivators and even sixth realm cultivators can be killed by it.

    Yuan Ji turned to Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun to say, "The three of you. Go and settle it."

    Jin Yuyun stammered, "Then what about the three of you? If the three of you join in then this beast can be killed in no time!"

    Yuan Ji hummed, "We are conserving our strength."

    Ji Hao was panicky, "Father, didn''t you say you will protect us?"

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders before he returned an indifferent look, "I lie."

    Ji Hao: ...

    Jin Yuyun murmured, "Can I not go? I''m a maiden¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her coldly, "Celestial Jin Yuyun, don''t forget your golden celestial title. In a fight there is a no man or woman."

    Jin Yuyun panicky looked at Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, "Saintess Xue¡­Saintess Ling¡­please help me to say a word."

    Xue Qianxue hit Yuan Ji lightly, "Yuyun is still so young. Spare her this time round."

    Yuan Ji smiled, "Sure she can stay behind but for the next fifth rank profound beast, she will need to fight it alone."

    Xue Qianxue, Jin Yuyun: ¡­

    Everyone else: ¡­

    Jin Yuyun hummed softly before she charged with her divine sword at the fifth rank profound beast!

    Ji Hao was stunned as he quickly raised his divine sword to join her.

    Li Ye was not slow either as he charged headlong at the beast.

    Ling Feiyue turned to whisper to Ji Yuan, "This is not an ordinary fifth rank primordial deste beast but a profound deste beast! They may be in danger. What are you doing? One is your daughter-inw and the other is your son."<sub> </sub>

    But Yuan Ji replied nonchntly, "You mean they are actually so weak?"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Only Bai Qianfeng who was in Yuan Ji''s arm had the nonchnt look as him. She used to be a deste immortal and in her world, the strong had always disdain the weak. So she felt it was not wrong for Yuan Ji to suggest that they were weak.

    This deste beast was huge; easily twice the size of an ordinary height cultivator and this monster was quickly alerted to the approach of Jin Yuyun, Ji Hao and Li Ye.

    The huge jaws of this deste beast which resembled a crocodile split open to reveal anotheryer of terrifying looking jaws. It literally had a mouth within a mouth.

    As for its body, it was slender and heavily muscled like a giant dire wolf. But now four protruding razor whips began to grow out of his body as it rotated all around, felling trees and smashing rocks to bits whenever the razor whipsnded a hit.

    The razor whip was so sharp that it could slice any cultivator that was below the fifth realm level into half!

    Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun were panicky fighting it while Li Ye was startled by the fierce ferocity of this deste beast.

    Ji Hao barely parried a whip attack for Jin Yuyun before he was sent flying backward.

    "Ji Hao!" Jin Yuyun panicky called out after him.

    Li Ye had shed the body of the deste beast but to his horror, the wounds were quickly regenerating and his attacks were quickly rendered futile.

    As he evaded the monster attack, he had also cut off one of its whips but it quickly regrew another new whip.

    He began to shout angrily to Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun, "The two of you have divine swords in your hand while I don''t even have a precious sword. What are you doing? Please attack or we will all be dead!"

    Jin Yuyun was actually in tears as she quickly disyed her sword art in front of her to fend off the attacking whips as she covered Ji Hao. "Pce Master Yuan, please help us¡­"

    Ji Hao coughed out a bout of golden blood as he tried to get up. Although he had sessfully block the whip attack but he was also injured by the deste force of the whip. "Yuyun, I am safe now. Don''t worry¡­"

    Xue Qianxue shouted, "I am going to help them now! They can''t win at all¡­"

    "Me too!" Ling Feiyue called out after Xue Qianxue.

    But all of a sudden Yuan Ji had swung his sword in front of them and said coldly, "Stay where you are. None of you shall help them."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were startled as they quickly took a step back. They had never seen Yuan Ji giving them such a cold look before!

    Yuan Ji turned around to shout with great sarcasm, "Ji Hao! Are you fit to be my son? Your mother is a Sword Saintess and your father is a Sword Saint but you are just a trash."

    "Celestial Jin Yuyun! Where is the haughtiness that you have dared to disy when you tried to challenge my Chengxi? Chengxi is also a fifth realm cultivator but she is never proud. But she can single-handedly kill a fifth rank profound beast. What about you? You are now scared off your pants now, am I right? So you think you are better than Fairy Ye Chengxi? Dream on!"

    "Elder Li Ye. I thought you are strong enough to challenge sixth realm golden supremacies? What? Without a divine sword in your hand, you feel that you are unable to win now?"

    "The three of you are such a disappointment and is such a loser! So you can only brag when your opponent is weak? Where is your courage now?"

    Ji Hao yelled aloud as he disyed his Profound Heaven Sword, "Yuyun my dear, watch your steps. I am going for an all-out attack now."

    "No! I will cover you and Li Ye!" Jin Yuyun cried aloud as she disyed her gale force attack to send a wind de across to the deste monster to distract it and sessfully allowing Li Ye to roll to safety.

    Li Ye stammered, "Um, thanks¡­"

    All of a sudden the three of them were co-coordinating their attacks together.

    The battle with this fifth rank profound beast took almost an hour to conclude. Finally they had emerged the winners as the three of them copsed onto the ground with bloody wounds all over.

    "We have won?!" Ji Hao was staring nkly at the foggy sky above and his head was in a spin.

    Jin Yuyun coughed out a bout of golden blood as she mustered all her profound strength into her profound aura in a bid to close her wounds. Among the three of them, she had received the heaviest injuries.

    She muttered, "I am still alive¡­"

    "Darn. This beast almost got me¡­" Li Ye wasughing all of a sudden. "But I''ve survived."

    Ji Haoughed, "We have survived¡­"

    All of a sudden the three of them were extending their right hands to salute one another.

    "We''ve all survived!" Theyughed together.

    All of a sudden a shadow was cast over them and was saying, "Not bad. The three of you actually can kill a fifth rank profound beast together."

    It was Yuan Ji and he had suddenly appeared over them with a grin.

    The three of them were startled. Due to the intensity of their fight, they had totally forgotten that Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were watching their fight.

    Yuan Ji said quietly to them, "I want the three of you to know that you aren''t as weak as you think you are. You are only strong because you''re willing to fight and not because you are relying on the others to fight your battles for you."

    Then he was smiling, "This victory rightfully belongs to the three of you. The three of you should give one another a big pat on your shoulder. In the future, the lives of your prot¨¦g¨¦s will be yours to protect."

    Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye nodded with a loud cry together as they raised their hands together. "We will remember this day!"

    Jin Yuyun was giggling, "Although I am beaten up so badly but I feel that this is the first time that I am so proud of my own victory."

    Ji Hao nodded slowly as he heaved a deep sigh, "In the past whenever I was in a trial, it was always my followers that clear the path for me¡­over time, I had lost my courage. Today, I feel that I have found my courage to live for myself again¡­"

    Li Ye wasughing too, "Well I know that I can''t win this deste beast alone but we did it together. I feel I am now much stronger than ever."

    Then he looked at Yuan Ji andughed, "So if we really can''t win this beast, Pce Master will step in to save us, am I right?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "No, I will let the three of you die together. Haha!"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Li Ye, Jin Yuyun, Ji Hao: ¡­

 Chapter 122 The Great Hunt (2)

    As Yuan Ji and his group descended deeper down the deste mists, they soon spotted another fifth rank profound beast which was the same kind as the one that Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye had fought earlier.

    Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye were actually all staggering by now and they were all looking at Yuan Ji, half-expecting that he would order them to fight it again.

    "Leave this to me." Yuan Ji quietly said.

    With a sh, he had brandished his divine sword with his left hand and with a downward cut, the ground around the deste beast exploded thunderous and the deste beast was instantly crashed to death by the sheer profound power that was disyed by his sword stroke!

    Li Ye, Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun were all looking at one another with a sheepish look; they had taken almost an hour to kill a simr deste beast and it was with all their best profound arts. But Yuan Ji had simply used an ordinary attack and the deste beast was killed in the next instant.

    Yuan Ji simply said, "Let''s go."

    Soon they saw three terrifying sixth rank profound deste beasts which scared the shits out of Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye.

    But Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue calmly approached the three sixth rank profound deste beasts and after a quick battle, they had killed these deste beasts effortlessly without even taking any injuries.

    Finally a seventh rank profound deste beast that was the same kind as the one that had killed Saintess Yuxian was seen. It was a Titan Draconic Beast!

    Yuan Ji said to his group. "Let me take care of it."

    He immediately moved ahead of them.

    Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun could still remember their horrifying experiences from this Titan Draconic Beast. They had remembered that Yuan Ji had killed it with three hundred berserking strokes while he had taken ten horrifying injuries from it.

    But this time Yuan Ji was on the defensive rather than on the offensive. In fact, he had taken nearly an hour to kill it but he waspletely unscathed.

    Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun had remembered that at that time Yuan Ji had taken only a short while to kill it. But this time he had taken a longer time and he was using the terrain to his advantage to slowly drained the profound strength of the Titan Draconic Beast.

    Ji Hao muttered, "At that time father was anxious for mother and that was why he was in the offensive. Now father is showing me how to fight a superior deste monster by using the terrain¡­"

    Jin Yuyun was also muttering, "Although we had many superior profound arts but we were using the wrong tactics to kill the fifth rank profound deste beast earlier and hence result in our current heavy injuries¡­"

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were watching the battle nervously. After all this was a seventh rank profound deste beast. There were quite a few times that they almost could not resist the urge to join Yuan Ji in battle¡­

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "He didn''t use his right hand yet so it is still fine."

    "The regeneration rate of this monster is really too insane and this deste beast is much fiercer than the one that we had encountered previously." Xue Qianxue returned a nervous sigh.

    When Yuan Ji had finished off the profound deste monster, he merely said to them. "Follow me."

    Soon they had reached a valley in the mountains and they had spotted dozens of yellow spirit nts that were giving off a strange white glow. Around these spirit nts were dozens of different types of deste beasts ranging from fourth rank to the seventh rank!

    Except for Yuan Ji, everyone was stunned by the number of deste beasts that were presented and it was impossible to even reach the spirit nts or to kill all the deste beasts.

    Xue Qianxue was gasping softly, "I know this spirit nt. This spirit nt is the Million Suns Sage. It will take roughly a thousand year for these spirit nts to appear and the biggest spirit nt over there seems to be a million year old."

    A million years old!

    When everyone heard Xue Qianxue, they were astonished.

    Only Yuan Ji was nonchnt as he said coolly, "Wait here. I will destroy it."

    Everyone was startled and shocked that Yuan Ji was going to destroy something so precious.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "The Million Suns Sage is a precious cultivation resource that is useful for treating injuries and making rejuvenation pills. A million year old Million Suns Sage may even be used to make divine pills¡­"

    But before she had finished, Yuan Ji had already walked away as he said to them. "Help me to take care of Xiaobai."

    Bai Qianfeng was looking at Yuan Ji with soft pleading eyes. Are you sure you want to go alone? This goddess can apany you...

    Everyone was quite startled that Yuan Ji''s aura hadpletely faded and even their divine sense could no longer even sense his heartbeat. Even though he was right in front of them, he was like an invisible person as he moved steadily away from them.

    Xue Qianxue muttered with a shock, "His lightless profound art is really this good?"

    "Well, he did assassinate the leader of the ck Hand Guild in the past." Ling Feiyue muttered.

    Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye were all startled. It was because they had heard of the reputation of the ck Hand Guild and knew that it was an assassin guild.

    Xue Qianxue was perplexed. "Why did he want to destroy these spirit nts?"

    Ling Feiyue pondered for a while before she said, "I know. He is making sure that the Five Heavens Peaks will have some peace when he is not around¡­"

    Xue Qianxue gasped as she used her fingers to cover her mouth. "Yuan Ji, he¡­" She had a sudden realization as well.

    In the Celestial Realm, spirit nts are not like the ordinary floras and are invisible to the eyes of the cultivators. It is literally in spirit form most of the time and ispletely invisible even to the divine sense of the most aplished cultivators.

    There are hundreds of thousands of different spirit nts in the Celestial Realm and when it is growing, it ispletely invisible. The mostmon spirit nts will appear every year while others will take years, decades, hundreds of years and even thousands of years to appear when it is flowering its spiritual seeds. When they do appear, these spirit nts will have a short window before fading away.

    But when these spirit nts do appear, especially the ones that have a cycle of hundreds or more years, it will always attract plenty of high level deste beasts.<sub> </sub>

    Take for example, something that is as rare as the Million Suns Sage. When it has spawned, it will spread its invisible spiritual animus for hundreds of miles to nourish the many deste beasts that are within its distorted spiritual animus field. Because of the ragged terrains of the mountains, the effects of the spiritual animus field can be weaker or stronger, creating an entire ecosystem for the deste beasts in the vast space of the mountains.

    During this period, many of the deste beasts will be hunting spirit beasts that are below and above the deste mists to nourish the Million Suns Sage in return. Of course, the best spiritual nourishment to feed the spirit nts is the soul core of the cultivators.

    When a deste beast kills a cultivator, the soul core of the cultivators which contain their spiritual sea will be absorbed into the deste core of the deste beast, to be stored until the deste beast can return to the spirit nt to nourish it.

    That was the main reason why the epic deste beast was attacking the Five Heavens Peaks when Yuan Ji had arrived. It was trying to nourish the spirit nts below the deste mists.

    Yuan Ji naturally knows what is happening. The appearance of an epic deste monster had indicated a rare type of spirit nt had spawned below the deste mists and it was causing the deste beasts to ravage the Five Heavens Peaks.

    The cultivators in the Celestial Realm often gather spirit nts for their own cultivation uses. Although the spirit nts cannot defend itself but it has formed a symbolic rtionship with the deste beasts to harvest the cultivators.

    As long as the Million Suns Sage is not destroyed or faded away on its own, the Five Heavens Peaks will still be in danger.

    Yuan Ji was startled to see that several of the deste beasts are transforming into higher rank deste monster right before his very eyes. He had never seen anything like this before. This million year old spirit nt was like a powerful divine pill to the deste beasts...

    He thought, "This should be the spirit nt that is causing all the weird disturbances."

    Before long, he had sneaked to the epicenter of the valley.

    Everyone was stunned that Yuan Ji stealth was so good that even the deste beasts were all not aware that he was moving in the tall grass.

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "Sister Qianxue, now I truly believe that he is practicing his stealth around the bathrooms." She had said a light joke to lessen the anxiety in the air.

    Xue Qianxue nodded with a startled look but she was also anxious for Yuan Ji.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had plucked the biggest Million Suns Sage and used his sword to destroy the rest with a thunderous outburst of profound sword energies.

    Immediately pandemonium reigned among the dozens of deste beasts and all the deste beasts seemed to have grown mad as they began to chase after Yuan Ji.

    Once Yuan Ji had performed an attack, he was not able to suppress his heartbeat or profound signature anymore.

    But Yuan Ji was simply too quick as he ran between the rocks where the deste beasts had difficulty following him.

    Soon he was back to his group as he shouted to everyone, "Make a break to the top! These deste beasts will be in a rampage for quite some time!"

    Everyone was startled as they ran with him.

    Ling Feiyue could not resist asking him, "It seem like you did this thing quite often?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Yea. I did this often with my old master."

    "Oh." Ling Feiyue was quite surprised to hear that his old master was doing this with him.

    Yuan Ji had a mncholy look before he said quietly, "My old master perished in one of the expeditions below. At that time, a powerful deste beast had attacked the surface. Although that monster isn''t too hard for my master but to the other cultivators in the Five Heavens Peak, it is a big threat. So he had to go to the deste mists below but he never returned."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had finally understood why Fairy Ye Chengxi had such a look of disapproval on her and she had even turned ashen.

    It was because what Yuan Ji was doing was extremely dangerous. In fact, there were at least a dozen times that Yuan Ji would be killed as he sneaked into the epicenter of the valley. He was just lucky that the deste monsters looked a littlezy today and most were undergoing their bodily transformation to take notice of him.

    -

    -

    -

    When Yuan Ji and his group had returned to the Emperor Hall Sect, Fairy Ye Cheng and Shangguan immediately crowded around him to check him for any signs of injuries.

    Jin Yuyun, Ji Hao and Li Ye were all smiling weakly. It was pretty obvious that they were the heavily injured and not Yuan Ji...

    Yuan Ji chuckled jovially to them, "With two great saintesses to protect me, how would things go wrong?"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue: We didn''t do a single thing¡­

    Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Li Ye werepletely white when they had returned to the Emperor Hall Sect. Along the way, they were chased by numerous deste beasts. Also Yuan Ji had taken them quite deep into the deste mists where it was difficult for them to recover their profound strength as the deste aura was too dense and the spiritual aura was too sparse to cultivate.

    Yuan Ji gently smiled at Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "So have you taken the Blood Grapes Divine Pills yet?"

    The two maidens nodded quietly.

    <o>,m "Well, it is from Feiyue to her new sisters. Haha." Yuan Ji chuckled.</o>

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "I still got some. Actually I don''t really need more."

    Xue Qianxue quickly added with a cheerful smile, "I have more too and I don''t need it. I can give it all to Sister Chengxi and Sister Yan."

    Yuan Ji held the four of them together and he also had Bai Qianfeng in his arm too as he said gently to the five of them. "Now that everything has been settled now, I can finally focus on my duel."

 Chapter 123 Quiet Time

    There was only less than a week before Yuan Ji was due to be at the Lofty World End Peak for his duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Therefore he had decided to spend the remaining days with all of his consorts.

    First Night;

    The first night was with Shangguan Yan. She was his first consort so he had decided to spend the first night alone with her.

    "So¡­should I address my lord as my Brother Yuan Ji still or Master Ji Yuan?" Shangguan Yan averted her eyes shyly as she asked quietly.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin, "Yan''Er didn''t leave me any choice. Master Ji Yuan sounds so distant while Brother Yuan Ji sounds so intimate. So naturally I will prefer to be address as your Brother Yuan Ji now."

    Shangguan Yan''Er giggled softly as she lowered her head bashfully, "Yes, that is a trick question."

    "My Yan''Er has always been smart. In fact, you are smarter than my other three consorts." Yuan Ji chuckled.

    "My lord, you are heaping too much praises on me." Yan''Er looked shyly away.

    Yuan Ji sighed softly, "I really didn''t know that you knew who I was since day one¡­"

    "Or else you won''t marry me, am I right?" Shangguan Yan had suddenly looked up at him with a mncholy look. "My old master always says there are many fishes in theke so there is no point to be with a single fish. So you''ve changed your mind now?"

    Yuan Ji was a little speechless when Shangguan Yan had suddenly mentioned his favorite quote.

    He rubbed his chin for a quick reply before heughed, "Recently I have found out that there are too many trashes in theke to admire the fishes properly so it is better for me to fish some up."

    Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    "You can always remove the trashes to admire the fishes¡­"

    Yuan Ji had suddenly pulled Shangguan Yan into the bed and pushed her down. His deft fingers had already loosened her silk belt and he had already disrobed her, revealing her bulging curved body in her lingeries. "It is too much work and the trashes have polluted my eyes."

    In the next instant, he was kissing and fondling her soft silken body¡­

    Shangguan Yan stammered shyly, "Brother Yuan Ji, so did you manage to find Pce Mistress Xia?"

    "Yeah! I found her. She is Saintess Fang Zhenfei of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect." Yuan Ji grinned.

    "Huh? She is actually from one of the seven major orthodox ns? How did you manage to find her? She is finally willing to let you find her? So you have finally proven yourself to be a romantic cultivator?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Is there a need to prove that I am a romantic cultivator? I am always a romantic cultivator. Haha!"

    "I don''t think so¡­"

    "Of course I am. I had even bang her and had made her into my woman already¡­haha."

    Shangguan Yan was gasping when Yuan Ji had suddenly pulled her undies off her and he was like a lustful beast that was out of control¡­

    Xiang Li was pondering in Yuan Ji''s soul sea as she tried very hard to recall. "Did he bang that beautiful maiden Fang Zhenfei?"

    But she was soon giggling and her eyes had turned lustful, "Forget about it first and also the fishes and trashes analogy.  Now this is something that I can understand! YES!!!"

    -

    -

    -

    Second Night;

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was Yuan Ji''s second consort. Therefore Yuan Ji decided to spend the second night with her.

    "Brother Yuan Ji, Sister Yan''Er had told me that you had found Pce Mistress Xia. So what did she says to you?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him curiously.

    "I had banged her for many nights and she kept asking me for more. She has totally be my submissive woman. And she says she will forever be my woman."

    Xiang Li: This is apletely different version from yesterday night¡­

    But her eyes were soon beaming excitingly and she was drooling.

    "YES!!!"

    -

    -

    -<sub> </sub>

    Third Night;

    Yuan Ji was with Xue Qianxue.

    "Qianxue, you are my cutest and most lovely consort..."

    Xiang Li was giggling exciting in Yuan Ji''s soul sea. "This is too sinful. Hehe!"

    -

    -

    -

    Fourth Night;

    The fourth night was spent alone with Ling Feiyue.

    "Feiyue, your smiles and your peerless looks are extremely beautiful..."

    "Heh! I have so many days of feasting. I really can''t decide which maidens that I like the most now¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Fifth Night;

    Yuan Ji lied to everyone that he needed to cultivate for hisst night at the Emperor Hall Sect but he was actually spending time with Bai Qianfeng who had reverted to her true appearance.

    However Yuan Ji was respectful to her and they were just looking at each other and chatting quietly while Yuan Ji held onto her for the entire night.

    Xiang Li appeared shyly behind them, "Erm¡­this is so boring¡­"

    Then she turned to looked at Yuan Ji, "I know that you want because you''re all fired up already¡­"

    But the two of thempletely ignored Xiang Li, causing her to be extremely miserable for the night.

    After a long time had passed, Bai Qianfeng asked him quietly. "I had heard them talking about Xia Jiajia. Xia Jiajia is also Xia Jiaqing and Fang Zhenfei. Who is she? Is she very important to you?"

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly with a soft sigh, "Indeed she is. The first time that I had met, my soul has already beenpletely taken by her. Do you know that we even had a hundred year pledge in the past? If I can survive my uing duel then she will be with me."

    Then with another soft, he added. "She is supposed to be my one and only consort too¡­"

    "Oh? Didn''t you have four already?" Bai Qianfeng asked him curiously.

    "She kinda forced me to marry my Yan''Er and things happened."

    "Tell me everything. I want to know everything about you." Bai Qianfeng said quietly.

    So Yuan Ji told her everything and he was quite truthful.

    After Bai Qianfeng had heard his ounts, she sighed softly. "I think she doesn''t want to be with you and that is why she has arranged for you to marry Shangguan Yan."

    "Is that so? Haha. But now she is willing to follow me already." Yuan Jiughed.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "I think it is more like she is trying to shake you off but you are too thick skin about it."

    Yuan Jiughed as he looked dreamily at her, "Yup, actually you are right. But sometimes you got to be thick skin when you want to chase the maiden of your dreams."

    Bai Qianfeng quickly averted her bashful eyes, "Remember, it is just chatting between the two of us. No funny actions like what we had done in the Dream Trial."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "No problem! I am already so d that I am talking to you."

    Xiang Li sobbed behind them, "NO!!!"

    But no matter how many times Xiang Li tried to tease them or pleaded with them for a show, Yuan Ji and Bai Qianfeng pretended not to hear her.

    What Xiang Li did not know was that while Yuan Ji and Bai Qianfeng were looking at each other dreamily, they were already reminiscing about the time when they were battling passionately with each other in the Dream Trial.

    Sometimes, some things need not to be seen or be physical to feel it.

 Chapter 124 Lofty World End Peak (1)

    Originally Yuan Ji was only nning to bring Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue along with him to the Lofty World End Peak but Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi had insisted on following him.

    Yuan Ji muttered, "The duel will be a personal one. It is not as if you can actually witness it. Why bother toe."

    Shangguan Yan said nonchntly, "As your first consort, I will want to be the first one to collect your corpse for burial."

    "As your second consort, I will want to be the second one to collect your corpse." Fairy Ye Chengxi said after Shangguan Yan.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Although the Spirit Crane is big but you can never trust these stupid spirit beasts to carry you nowadays¡­"

    "The winds may be heavy¡­"

    "We may suddenly meet with a heavy storm¡­"

    "Or flying deste beasts¡­"

    In the end, he was forced to take them with him because they had used the ultimate excuse to get him to agree to bring them along and that was to take their lives before him.

    Therefore he had bid Li Ye, Ji Hao, Jin Yuyun and Old Liu Xuan to take care of the sect while he had left with his four consorts on the Spirit Crane.

    He gave Ji Hao a final pat on his shoulder as he smiled to him, "You got a good maiden by your side. Take good care of her."

    Ji Hao stammered, "She is troublesome sometimes..."

    Jin Yuyun gave him a light kick, "Hmph! I am the one that is taking care of you all the time. Who is the one that guide you here? You are so lost at that time!"

    Ji Hao murmured, "Who is the one that is lost? Are you sure it is actually me?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Son, you can''t win her in a war of words. Let it be. And take good care."

    Ji Hao muttered with a heavy sigh, "Father..."

    -

    -

    -

    After two days of flying, they were finally in the vicinity of the Lofty World End Peak. It was quite an eventful two days ride.

    Along the way, they took short breaks in the various mountains before continuing again and managed to achieve multiple breakthroughs together, much to the great exaltation of Xiang Li.

    The four maidens actually got along quite well and they were asking many things about one another and about Yuan Ji.

    Actually Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had never dreamt that one day they would be sitting with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue on an equal footing. After all, they all had quite an influential background; the world that they were ustomed was rich and plentiful with cultivation resources where else the Five Heavens Peaks was so dirt poor that all the patriarch celestial ns would hardly notice the ce if it was not for the three generations of sword saints that were produced by the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    As they got near to the Lofty World End Peak, the winds were extremely fierce. It was a deste ce where even the flying spirit beasts, deste beasts and divine beasts did not dare to fly into. This was actually the main reason why this ce was a favorite dueling ce for the celestials.

    The Lofty World End Peak was inessible bynd and it was inessible by air at the same time.

    They could only descend onto a nearby mountain peak which was called the World Edge Peak which could be essible by air and then they had to walk along a treacherous path to the Lofty World End Peak.

    Yuan Ji had actually been here a few times in the past.

    When they had found a knownnding site and began tond, they were quite startled to find the dead bodies of cultivators everywhere.

    There were at least several dozens!

    Yuan Ji and the maidens were quite startled.

    What was going on here?

    Two lovely maidens who had cold demeanors had suddenly appeared over the horizon.

    Yuan Ji got a big startle when he had suddenly recognized that the two lovely maidens as Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue!

    All four of the maidens were also startled as they had met these two sister saintesses at one point or another.

    "Wuwu, Baiyue. You are all here?"

    Hua Wuwu replied coldly, "You may camp here for the night. These nosy cultivators had all tried to witness the duel despite the warnings that are written to everyone that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will not show mercy if they are within a hundred miles of the Lofty World End Peak."

    Yuan Ji nodded, "So that is why."

    "Stay here until tomorrow morning. You may want to have yourst night with yourpanions. But let me warn all of you first. On no ount should anyone of you step into the Lofty World End Peak during the night. Our Old Master and the Great Elders will have nopassions whatever so."

    When Hua Wuwu had finished speaking, she had turned around to fade into the shadows with Hua Baiyue.

    Yuan Ji turned to the four maidens, "Well, let''s setup camp for the night."

    Shangguan Yan took a look at the bodies that were around the site before she sighed weakly, "These two saintesses are really ruthless. They really kill everyone that is here."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "They are actually under the orders of their Divine Pce Master. These cultivators shouldn''t be here at all. Some of them may not even have the best of intentions and are trying to learn something from our duel. Observing a personal duel is a taboo in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they shouldn''t be doing that. Moreover they should be aware of the reputation of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."<sub> </sub>

    Then he walked to the nearest dead cultivator and said, "Look, all these cultivators have no n insignia on them. Some had even taken poison upon learning that they were about to be captured. It is obviously that they are all undercover here and did not want to be identified by anyone."

    Ling Feiyue took a quick look before saying, "For them toe here and judging by the number of abandoned flying mounts here, all these cultivators are not weak and they have powerful influences to back them up."

    Xue Qianxue nodded lightly, "Many of them are golden celestials too. These golden celestials are all young celestials and are nameless. That is why they are given such a mission. They can''t send the more renowned ones."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi agreed, "Unfortunately, it is never a good thing to pry into the affairs of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Yuan Ji nodded as he continued to inspect the dead, "I bet that the cultivators from the Mystic Eye Guild are among the dead. They are so nosy and eager to sell information that I am actually not surprised if they are here."

    Many of the dead had sword wounds. Were they all killed by Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue? For the two of them to kill so many dozens so cleanly, even Yuan Ji found it a little difficult to ept.

    Yuan Ji looked up the cliff to where Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue werest seen before he chuckled loudly, "C''mon. We are such old friends. Why don''t we have a little chat together?"

    No reply.

    But Yuan Ji was not deterred.

    He said to the four maidens, "Wait here for me."

    All of a sudden Xiaobai had leapt out of his arms.

    Yuan Ji grinned to Xiaobai, "You''re not following me?"

    But he did not insist. With a quick leapt, he had already scaled up the cliff.

    The top of the cliff had many tall trees along its edge and beyond. The winds were also blowing strongly here and it was very extremely cold.

    He soon found Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue in a small forested clearing that could allow them to watch over the site clearly while hiding themselves from view.

    "Wuwu, Baiyue. How are you? Why are you so cold?" Yuan Jiughed as he approached them.

    Hua Baiyue hummed coldly, "Do we know you? Are we friends?"

    "Rather, we seem to be enemies!" Hua Wuwu pointed out.

    Yuan Jiughed, "Of course we are friends. I''m so happy to see the two of you."

    Hua Baiyue smiled coldly, "Little beauty, you should spend your night peacefully with your love ones. After all, this is yourst night in the world and will be your most precious night."

    "If you are trying to dig information from us about our Old Master, you will be greatly disappointed." Hua Wuwu said coldly. "Because we are loyal to our Old Master."

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Who says anything about asking about your old master? I''m not interested in any old froggy. Rather I am more interested in the two of you."

    "Hehe, unfortunately we are not close to you at all." Hua Baiyue replied coldly.

    Yuan Ji lowered his voice to say gently to them, "Have you forgotten our romantic nights together?"

    When he had said that, the two sister saintesses had a shudder and there was a sh in their cold eyes.

    Yuan Ji said gently, "Surely¡­"

    "Surely you don''t think that we will hold real emotion attachments to that, am I right?" Hua Wuwu said coldly.

    Hua Baiyue hummed coldly, "You shouldn''t be here at all. You should be watching your consorts closely."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I think I should be watching the two of you closely just in case that you have decided to ambush us during the night¡­"

    Hua Baiyue interrupted him as she pointed to the cliff below, "Really? I am afraid that some of yourpanions have already decided on some actions of their own without telling you."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he looked down below. He was quite startled to see that only Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were below. Even Xiaobai was not around¡­

    Hua Wuwu said coldly, "They must be thinking to fight our Old Master before you. Possibly to weaken him before the duel. However it is all futile and my Old Master will make them into his dual cultivation melting cauldron as he is already anticipating that they will take actions before the duel. It seems that my Old Master is right."

    Yuan Ji quickly gave them a kiss on their cheeks but not before he fondled them on their bosoms and gave them a pat on their butts.

    "Thank you¡­for telling me¡­" He quickly said to them.

    Hua Wuwu pointed to a path behind them, "This way is the shortcut. You may still catch up with them."

    Yuan Ji stammered out loudly as he sped past them in a hurry. "Thank you¡­I won''t forget about this¡­"

    After he had left, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were mncholy looking at each other¡­

    Finally Hua Baiyue sighed, "We''re not supposed to be helping him¡­"

    Hua Wuwu nodded as she trembled, "Yet, we did¡­why sister?"

    Hua Baiyue shook her head, "I don''t know sister. Maybe it is because we don''t want him to hate us?"

    Hua Wuwu inhaled softly, "Maybe¡­or because we have both liked him¡­"

    "Our Old Master won''t be too pleased with us¡­" Hua Baiyue sighed.

 Chapter 125 Lofty World End Peak (2)

    Ling Feiyue''s n was really bold and simple.

    She knew that she would not stand a chance if she were to confront the Hundred Flower Divine Pce directly.

    Therefore she nned to use the True Sacred Saint Profound Art as a bait to seek a direct audience with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. A fragment of this cultivation profound art was once highly sought after by the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and many of the celestial ns.

    Therefore this bait would surely work.

    For this, she had already prepared her speech. "I have the true copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. Bring me to the Divine Pce Master or I will destroy the one and only copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art right in front of your eyes. And don''t ever think of seizing it from me because I can destroy it faster than you can bring me down."

    And she had shared her bold n with Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng.

    Xue Qianxue agreed that the n was feasible.

    Bai Qianfeng even suggested, "I will remain in my spirit fox form. At the most crucial timing, I will revert to my true form to deal the Divine Pce Master a fatal attack. He will never suspect that I am actually a cultivator." She had even thought of pushing over her current realm limit to execute an eighth realm profound power attack by burning her spiritual sea.

    As she had lost her peak seventh realm profound strength while fighting the epic deste monster, she is unable to force her profound power to the ninth realm level anymore. The maximum profound power that she can push to the limit is the eighth realm level.

    However pushing over to the current limit always has a heavy price to pay for and it is by burning the cultivator''s spiritual sea which will drastically affect the cultivator''s profound strength and even cause the cultivator''s profound strength to slip.

    But Bai Qianfeng did not care for this. As long as her attack is strong enough to kill the Divine Pce Master, she will considered it worthwhile to do so.

    Ling Feiyue said to Xue Qianxue, "Qianxue, you are with child. You don''t need to take the risk with us."

    Xue Qianxue shook her head as she said firmly to them and her eyes were full of conviction, "If I am included then we can assure that our n will have a higher chance of sess. That old goat will surely fall into our honey trap. After all, no man can resist our alluring beauty."

    Seeing that Xue Qianxue had already firmly decided to join them, Ling Feiyue took out several pills and said quietly. "The bright green pills will render us immune to the most powerful scents for an hour. Even though we are all seventh realm saintesses here and are not affected by scents but there may be some unknown scents that can still work against us."

    The Hundred Flower Divine Pce is indeed renowned for the use of its many special scents.

    Then Ling Feiyue said quietly, "The blue pills are deadly poisons for us to take. No matter what, we cannot allow ourselves to be taken as melting cauldron or allow ourselves to be tainted by other men."

    With that the three maidens had made their ns and secretly kept their daring n from Yuan Ji.

    They had actually nned to make a move during the night but when they saw that Yuan Ji had suddenly went after the two sister saintesses Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, they had decided to make their moves.

    They just told Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan that they would be exploring the vicinity and would be back quickly.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were now making their way rapidly through the mountain. Although they were extremely swift, Bai Qianfeng in her spirit fox form was still able to match their speed.

    All of a sudden the dark shade of a man had suddenly shed in front of them, startling everyone.

    "Where do you think you are all going?" It was Yuan Ji who had appeared in front of them and he was now asking them bitterly.

    Then he took a look at Bai Qianfeng, "Don''t tell me that the two of you already know who Qianfeng is?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "We are just taking a walk. Why are you here? I thought that you are trying to chat with the two lovely maidens? Why? They have turned you down?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled weakly, "Yelp, we''re just taking a walk¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted coldly, "I want all of you to turn back immediately. Let me make it firmly to you first. This duel is my personal duel and none of your business. If you are to step forward again, I will divorce you immediately and I will have no ties with you whatever so."

    "It isn''t what you think it is¡­"

    "We are only trying to help¡­"

    "Maybe we can negotiate with the Divine Pce Master¡­"

    Even Bai Qianfeng had assumed her human form and was saying, "We''re just checking the terrain for you¡­"

    The three maidens were really good in finding excuses and in a short while time, they hade up with dozens of suggestions and excuses.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed, "Do you still remember you have to do three things for me? Well, I want you to give way to us!"

    Yuan Ji replied coolly, "Anything but that."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    In the end Yuan Ji nuked all their excuses, suggestions and threats by telling them, "If you don''t turn back immediately, I will kill myself right in front of you."

    This was an ultimate nuke thatpletely nuked all their stubbornness. And Yuan Ji had learnt it from Shangguan Yan.

    In the end, the three maidens had no choice but to turn back angrily.

    When Yuan Ji had apanied them to return to camp, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were surprised to see Bai Qianfeng.

    "She is?" They asked curiously.

    "She is my nine-tail spirit fox¡­" Yuan Ji promptly introduced Bai Qianfeng to them.

    "And she is my fifth consort." He said as he finished off the introduction.

    Bai Qianfeng looked shyly away, "Who is your fifth consort huh? I don''t fancy a dead man soon."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Who says I will be a dead man soon? I have a fifty-fifty odd!"

    "Bold words." Ling Feiyue hummed unhappily.

    Even Xue Qianxue was shaking her head in disapproval.

    Ling Feiyue threw a green pill to Yuan Ji, "Here. Take this. This green pill can render you immune to the special scents of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce for an hour. Take it just in case."

    Yuan Ji caught hold of it and said to all the five maidens quietly, "Trust me. I will surely return from the duel tomorrow. So please do not do anything funny that will affect my focus for the duel tomorrow."

    All the five maidens looked down and were afraid to look at him. They really did not have much faith!

    They knew by that Yuan Ji''s confidence was being driven by his Undying Fighting Spirit and the odd that he had mentioned was just assuring words to pacify them.

    Xue Qianxue slowly said, "Four hundred years ago, the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had killed two great formidable saints at the same time. One of them was Sword Saint Xiao Shenji, some even say he was the greatest sword cultivator and sword saint ever."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Sword Saint Xiao Shenji even had a formidable sword spirit to aid him."<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji nodded, "Yea. He is my hero. Even my old master had spoken highly of Sword Saint Xiao Shenji as the greatest sword saint ever."

    "But I may not lose. Because I am the thickest skin Sword Saint ever."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yuan Ji said coolly, "Alright. Everyone stay here. Please do not go anywhere. I will be back shortly."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him curiously, "Where are you going?"

    Yuan Ji said solemnly, "My duel with the Divine Pce Master is starting in a few hours'' time. Naturally I will be practicing my skills and warming myself up before my duel."

    With that he had left the camp site.

    Shangguan Yan had a suspicious look, "Is he really going to practice his sword skills?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "He won''t lie to us. He just tempered his soul and he has to at least ensure that he is in a tip top condition before his duel."

    Xue Qianxue agreed, "That is right. And why should he lie to us?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly, "That is because he never practices his sword skills at thest minute, not even if the duel is a life threatening one."

    Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "Then what he does before the duel? Reciting poems to calm his nerves?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she made a guess, "Surely he isn''t secretly finding a spot to drink his wines? That''s such a big taboo to do before a duel."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi hesitated for a while before she lowered her voice to answer them. "He visited the brothels."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Yuan Ji was actually not practicing his skills and instead he was nowying quite intimately with Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    He sniffed their clothing and undies as he casually put it aside.

    Hua Wuwu smiled weakly, "I don''t understand. You have five beautiful maidens below and why are you here?"

    "Right. What are you doing up here for?" Hua Baiyue hummed coldly.

    "I like to pick the wild flowers sometimes." Yuanughed.

    Then he added, "Naturally when I am up here, I feel more confidence of defeating your old master."

    "We will never tell you anything. Forget it." Hua Wuwu hummed coldly.

    Yuan Ji slowly caressed them as heughed, "Never mind. The night is long¡­"

    "You are a little rascal¡­"

    "And a lecherous one!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I have never said that I am a hero, am I right?"

    Xiang Li was saying delightfully in Yuan Ji''s soul sea, "Yelp! He''s never a hero. Wuwu and Baiyue, it is so good to see the two of you again. Hehe! Hurry and go bang bang!"

    Hourster¡­

    Hua Wuwu finally sumbed under to Yuan Ji''s manly lure, "My old master is already in perfect harmony with his celestial sword. Therefore your sword strength will never be powerful enough to overwhelm him¡­"

    "He has the Golden Nirvana Divine Skill. It''s a secret divine art that can render all profound attacks almost useless. How many times he can use this divine skill, we have no idea as well." Hua Baiyue added under the skillful touches of Yuan Ji.

    "He has already formed the Spirit Core of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. So be very careful tomorrow." Hua Wuwu whispered into his ears.

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You may as well don''t tell me. Now I''m truly dead."

    "Although you may sound a little bitter but you doesn''t seem to be affected too much by it. Why?" Hua Wuwu asked him curiously.

    Yuan Jiughed as he held the two sisters tightly to him, "That is because I have already predicted who will win the duel tomorrow."

    "Oh?" The two sister saintesses returned him a curious look.

    Yuan Ji replied quite nonchntly, "I have a 100% chance of losing. This, I am absolutely certain."

    Hua Wuwu gave him a perplexed look, "But you don''t look like you have surrendered the fight yet."

    Yuan Ji gave a soft but heartyugh, "That is because I had visited Diviner Mo Ming and he had told me that I will surely lose. But I am still unwilling to believe it and surrender my fight."

    Hua Baiyue gasped, "The Diviner Mo Ming that has never given the wrong prediction?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "That''s right."

    Hua Wuwu inhaled softly, "Then why don''t you run away?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "That is because I want to see the two of you again. Haha."

    "Don''t talk rubbish." Hua Baiyue hit him on his chest and pinched his nipple. This caused Yuan Ji to give a soft yell.

    "Alright, alright. I shall be honest with the two of you since we''re friends." Yuan Ji quickly said.

    He sighed heavily before saying solemnly, "It is against my Dao as Sword Saint to back off from my duel. Moreover, I am quite eager to fight a superior opponent like your old master."

    Hua Wuwu asked him quietly, "Why don''t you tell my old master that you didn''t steal our divine flower and shift it to the real culprit?"

    Yuan Ji grinned but said nothing. It was because Xia Jiajia had a precious ce in his heart. Even though she was the one that had stolen the Blue Divine Flower but he would never reveal her name to the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

 Chapter 126 The Hopeless Duel (1)

    Yuan Ji was being escorted by Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as he stood at the edge of the World Edge Peak and there was a narrow ridge that he had to travel before he could enter into the mountains of the Lofty World End Peak.

    He turned around to return a gentle smile to Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng.

    The eyes of everyone were mncholy but they did not dare to say anything lest it would affect his focus for the duel.

    Hua Wuwu said coldly to them, "There are watchers beyond this ridge. Wait here for his news. If you dare to cross this ridge then don''t me the Hundred Flower Divine Pce for being nasty to all of you."

    Only when Yuan Ji had disappeared beyond the ridge, did the maidens let go of their frustrations;

    "He is stupid!"

    "Really an idiot!"

    "Why did we have toe here with him in the first ce?"

    "Who cares about the destruction of the Five Heavens Peaks?"

    "What is martial honor?"

    "He already knows Diviner Mo Ming''s prophecy and yet he is so foolhardy toe¡­"

    Shangguan Yan muttered quietly, "Maybe there is an abyssal chasm nearby. In the stories, the hero will always fall into it and emerge stronger with a unique cultivation method after a few centuriester. So he won''t die¡­"

    Ling Feiyue inhaled a heavy sigh, "Sister Yan, I am so sorry to disappoint you. This clich¨¦ won''t happen because they will be dueling ind because of the strong winds around here."

    Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng muttered silently, "If I have given you my body then you may breakthrough to the Great Saint level. Then you may have a ray of hope. I promise you that if you doe back alive, I will definitely give you my immortal body¡­"

    But in the end it was only a weak protest because everyone knows that he would not be a Sword Saint if he was a coward.

    Therefore they could only pray to the heavens for the best to him.

    Yuan Ji began to follow Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as they sped through the mountains. He could scarcely believe that their swiftness movement skill would be so astonishing that he could barely catch up with them. It was no wonder that they would be able to move in and out of the Celestial Orthodox Sect with such ease. He was beginning to think that their master must be equally good or even better.

    Finally after more than an hour, Yuan Ji had followed them to a valley between two tall steep cliffs.

    He was actually unfamiliar with this ce as there were dozens of dueling sites at the Lofty World End Peak and he had only been to just a few.

    As he stepped into the valley, he saw several maidens in light blue that were ying the zither along the cliffs of the valley.

    He was soon frowning unhappily. It was because they were ying the ''Ten Sides Ambushes''. If he had not learnt music while in the Dream Trial, he would not have recognized what they were ying.

    He thought, "So this is actually an ambush for me?"

    As he continued into the valley while walking behind Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, he soon saw a beautiful white tent with blue banners. There was no doubt that the Divine Pce Master must be inside¡­

    Four old men with long beards were already waiting outside the tent and at the same time, a dozen veiled maidens with golden eyes were standing behind them.

    Yuan Ji had immediately recognized two of the four old men as First Elder Fu Wushuang and Second Elder Wei Yidao.

    Although he did not know who the other two old men were but they should be equally formidable.

    He could not use his divine sense to read their profound strength and realm level unless they had chosen to reveal it. It was because once a celestial cultivator had attained to the middle golden supremacy level, they were be able to hide the spiritual force in their soul sea, concealing their true profound strength from the others.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue respectfully returned a hand gesture to the four old men as they said at the same time, "Elders, we have brought Yuan Ji here."

    First Elder Fu Wushuang nodded, "Go and report to your old master first."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue lowered their heads gracefully to acknowledge the instructions before they went into the tent.

    First Elder Fu Wushuang smiled as he stared coldly at Yuan Ji, "You seem to have improved quite a lot in just six months. Even your vibes arepletely different now."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Oh really? Haha. If I can have another six months then I can show you more improvements."

    Second Elder Wei Yidaoughed jovially before he suddenly said coldly, "Fat hope!"

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulder andughed jovially, "It is only a suggestion. Haha. Maybe your old master is in a jovial mood and will actually agree to see my improvements?"

    Hua Baiyue had suddenlye out of the tent.

    Yuan Ji was startled that her eyes were red¡­<sub> </sub>

    Hua Baiyue announced, "Old Master has a new instruction. On ount that Pce Master Yuan Ji has the courage toe for the duel and that he has been taking care of Wuwu and I, my old master has decided to grant him an extension of six months to duel again. But there is a condition. He has to take either me or Wuwu as his consort and the other one must die."

    Yuan Ji was stunned. One of them must die?!

    This old master was really too vicious!

    Xiang Li said quietly to him in his soul sea, "Then you will have six more months to live. Didn''t that beauty Fang Zhenfei says that if you don''t die in this duel, she will be willing to follow you? So ept it¡­"

    But Yuan Jiughed, "I am not a coward nor do I want anyone to die for my sake. Don''t tell me that the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is actually a coward? You don''t dare to fight me?"

    Hua Baiyue said coldly, "Yuan Ji, you don''t have a choice in this matter. You can only choose between my sister or I. Once you have made a choice, you will be given six months more to live."

    Yuan Ji hummed coldly, "What if I say no?"

    He asked Xiang Li quietly in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, are you afraid to die with me?"

    Xiang Li shook her head with a weak smile, "I love my master best!"

    "Haha, good! So I am finally your master now? Haha. Then let''s take a gambit today..."

    -

    -

    -

    Three hourster;

    Hua Baiyue had returned to the ce where the five maidens were waiting for Yuan Ji.

    In her hand was a big bundle that was soaked, simr size to a head.

    When the five maidens saw what she was holding, they were all shocked beyond words.

    Hua Baiyue coldly said, "Who wants to receive this present from my Old Master?"

    All five maidens were trembling nonstop and they dare not receive the bundle.

    In the end Ling Feiyue who was the boldest among the five maidens had stepped forward, "I will receive it."

    She began to receive the bundle with trembling fingers and there were tears flowing down her beautiful cheeks. "Yuan...Ji¡­"

    The other four maidens were all weeping loudly at the same time too.

    Bai Qianfeng wept bitterly, "You stupid fool¡­"

    Suddenly she had taken the bundle away from Ling Feiyue and said, "No matter what, I want to take ast look at him¡­"

    With trembling fingers, she had opened up the bundle and was shocked that it was a watermelon¡­

    "It is not Yuan Ji?!"

    All four maidens were shocked and they were looking at Hua Baiyue¡­

    But Hua Baiyue said coldly, "My old master is afraid that you may be thirsty from the waiting and thereby sends a sweet gift for you."

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "This joke is not funny at all!"

    Hua Baiyue said nonchntly, "Follow me to collect his corpse. It is just nice that there are five of you here. Each one of you can take one part of his body."

    "What do you mean by that?" Fairy Ye Chengxi said with trembling lips.

    "My old master had dismembered his body into five parts." Hua Baiyue replied before she turned her back. "If you want to collect his body, then follow me."

    "I will go!" Ling Feiyue burst into sobbing grief as she cried out.

    Shangguan Yan had suddenly caught hold of her wrist, "Sister Feiyue, it may be a trap. Be wary¡­"

    But Ling Feiyue had loosened her wrist from her and cried bitterly, "Even if it is a trap, I will still go!"

    All the four maidens behind Ling Feiyue had all cried out, "Sister Feiyue, wait for us! We will go too!"

    [Author Note]: Next chapter will be extremely gory. Make sure you have some extra tissue paper around...

 Chapter 127 The Hopeless Duel (2)

    <Gore and maturity warning ahead. Skip for the faint heart>

    When the five maidens had reached the valley where the duel was to be taken ce, they were weeping bitterly along the way.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng had already decided in secret to use their lives to exact vengeance for Yuan Ji, no matter what the price was!

    Today they had decided to die together with Yuan Ji.

    Imagine their surprise when they had suddenly heard jovialughter that seemed to be from Yuan Ji.

    In his arm was a veiled maiden in blue and he was actually drinking heartily with four old men. These four old men all had formidable vibes and they were definitely seventh realm experts.

    What was going on?

    Yuan Jiughed even more heartily when he saw them, "Come and join me for a drink!"

    All five maidens were stunned.

    Xue Qianxue stammered, "You have won the duel?"

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders, "Nope. It is exactly as Diviner Mo Ming has said. I have lost the duel utterly. There is no way that I can win. Haha."

    All five maidens: ???

    -

    -

    -

    About two hours earlier;

    Yuan Jiughed, "I won''t choose between Wuwu or Baiyue. If I want to take, I will take both. Haha. However today I really feel like dueling with you. So why don''t we have a little spar?"

    Hua Baiyue said coldly to him, "You are only courting your own death."

    But Yuan Ji was undeterred and instead he was suddenly roaring withughter, "Jiajia, I know that you are in there."

    Then he inhaled softly, "I sniff your scent around Wuwu and Baiyue. This I can''t be wrong." Then he took out the lingeries that were from Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue out of his spatial belt. "Look!"

    Hua Baiyue had suddenly turned ashen and she had suddenly noticed that everyone was looking at her¡­

    It was no wonder that Yuan Ji was sniffing around their lingeriesst night¡­

    She muttered awkwardly, "This is not ours. He is maligning¡­"

    "When I had hugged Saintess Fang Zhenfei, I can sniff their scents around you. At first I thought that I am mistaken but I am finally sure."

    Yuan Ji added, "I should have already guessed that you are the Old Master a long time ago. I still remember when I had first entered your inn room a hundred years ago, I had already sniffed the same familiar scent."

    "I have suddenly remembered that you are immune to scents. Only someone who is from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce will be immune to scents, am I right? Because she is always ying with scents."

    "Even if Saintess Fang has a heaven-defying ability, do you agree that it will be difficult for her to steal the Blue Divine Flower from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and even made a powerful scent out of it unless she has some foreknowledge?"

    "Immediately after you have disappeared, the Hundred Flower Divine Pce hade knocking at the Emperor Hall Sect. Why is the timing so coincidental?"

    "You have even purposely tried to throw me off your trail by revealing yourself as Saintess Fang Zhenfei, am I right?"

    "Actually the clues are not obvious but Hua Wuwu has told me the answer yesterday night. Haha."

    "No, I didn''t!" A voice that was from Hua Wuwu was heard inside the tent.

    Even Hua Baiyue was stammering, "No! My sister will never betray the Hundred Flower Divine Pce!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Of course she won''t but she has a slip of a tongue."

    Hua Wuwu had suddenlye out of the tent with an awkward and flustered look, "What did I say?"

    Yuan Jiughed, "You ask me to tell your old master that I didn''t steal your divine flower and suggest that I shift it to the real culprit. But how do you know there is a real culprit?"

    Hua Wuwu stammered, "This doesn''t prove anything at all¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "Although this doesn''t prove anything at all but you have suggested it at my darkest hour. Therefore there must be something wrong about it. Therefore I have spent the whole night thinking about it. It is as though Jiajia wants me to betray her from day 1. Therefore she has given me sufficient time to think over this question."

    "Are you sure that you are even thinking about it at all?" A familiar mesmerizing voice said from inside the tent.

    Yuan Ji immediately smiled as he stormed inside the tent with a sudden sh.

    There was no one stopping him because no one had moved from where they were.

    Inside the tent was a most enchanting and extraordinary beautiful maiden in peacock blue. On her forehead was a beautiful blue flower petal. She was indeed Xia Jiajia.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "So this ''Old Master'' is actually my beautiful Jiajia! I am right. Jiajia, why did you setup me for?"

    Xia Jiajia averted her eyes with a wry smile, "You didn''t think that your poem only affects the two great beauties, am I right?"

    Then she began to recite;

    The fluttering snow as white as the Goddess Maiden Qianxue and the spirit songs as vivid as the Goddess Maiden Feiyue. To have the two beautiful goddesses to dance with the strokes of my beautiful beard is as heavenly as the sight of the immortal fairies.

    The lovelyughter of the two Goddess Maidens transcends the seven lofty peaks of the realm and the hundred flowers. Their beautiful songs stir my passions to no ends.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji had a suddenly realization, "Erm, don''t tell me that you are offended by the hundred flowers?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded quietly, "So the two goddess maidens are even more beautiful than me?"

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Of course not. My Jiajia is the most beautiful!"

    "Then change your poem." Xia Jiajia lit a beautiful smile.

    "Haha. Alright then." Then he lowered his voice, "Jiajia, so you are willing to be with me now?"

    Xia Jiajia averted her eyes shyly as she pursed her small lips¡­

    Hua Wuwu smiled awkwardly, "Mistress, I will go out first¡­"

    When Hua Wuwu had left the tent, Xia Jiajia turned to look at Yuan Ji. "What do you think?"

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin before he asked, "Of course?"

    Xia Jiajia gently nodded her head and all of a sudden Yuan Ji was already hugging her tightly. "You! Keep your lecherous hands off me¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed, "But Jiajia, I don''t understand why you are framing yourself? What for?"

    Xia Jiajia immediately started to say unhappily, "Are you sure you have been thinking about it at all? I guess not!"

    Yuan Ji returned her a sheepish look, "It is only a duel. Why must I think so hard about it for?"

    Xia Jiajia: ¡­

    "You can choose to betray me to save your own life, silly." She said quietly.

    "But you''re my woman. Why should I do that for?" Yuan Ji asked her curiously. "We have a hundred year old pledge to be together and you have waited for me for a hundred years. If you can wait for me for a hundred years, why can''t I fight for your sake?"

    Xia Jiajia sighed softly, "You are not romantic at all. I think I have decided to give up on you on this. It is merely a test for you to see if you are worthy for me."

    But in her heart, this was the most romantic thing that had happened because Yuan Ji was willing to fight to defend her honor. But she just did not want to tell it to him because he had a bad habit to be conceited.

    Yuan Ji pped his fists in sudden realization, "So this is a test? So I pass?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded quietly as she said shyly, "If you choose to betray me then we are truly over and you are not fit to be with me. But instead you have chosen to ept the duel for my sake."

    Yuan Jiughed jovially, "So I have lost the duel but I have won your heart over?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded.

    No matter how formidable Yuan Ji had be, this was one duel that he could never win. Diviner Mo Ming''s prophecy has always been uncanny urate and he is never proven wrong.

    But she soon looked up with a lovely smile, "This one doesn''t count. Wuwu is too talkative and has fallen into your charms. You didn''t even bother to think hard about it¡­"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had drawn her close to him and he was kissing her lips passionately, interrupting her as he gently said to her, "Of course I have been thinking very hard about it. Well, I did expose you, am I right?"

    Xia Jiajia protested weakly, "That is because I didn''t know your nose is so sharp and I have miscalcted¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the present;

    Yuan Ji had unveiled the maiden in blue that he was holding and an extraordinary beautiful maiden was revealed in everyone''s eyes.

    "Xia Jiajia!"

    "Pce Mistress Xia!"

    "Saintess Fang Zhenfei!"

    All five maidens were looking at Yuan Ji in confusion.

    "Where is the Old Master?"

    "Yuan Ji has won the duel?"

    "What is going on here?"

    Yuan Ji grinned and said proudly, "Jiajia is the real Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce!"

    All five maidens were gasping with shock.

    But they were soon crowding around Yuan Ji and were weeping with joy. It was because they were all so d that Yuan Ji was still alive!

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly to Xia Jiajia, "You''re really too horrible and too smart. You literally y us around your finger tips."

    "That''s right!" Xue Qianxue hummed softly but she was actually smiling, "But unfortunately, you really take your time so I am afraid that you have really miscalcted. You''re not going to be his first consort anymore but his sixth!"

    Xia Jiajia smiled sweetly to them, "If this is considered your sweet revenge then I will be forced to ept it."

 Chapter 128 Where It All Began

    Xia Jiajia dismissed all the four elders and everyone else except for Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue before saying to everyone, "You may address me as Xia Jiajia instead of my other names. Saintess Fang Zhenfei is my name when I''m at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and also my real name. But I will prefer you to address me as Xia Jiajia for now."

    "You must be wondering why I am the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and also the Phoenix Mistress of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect at the same time, am I right?"

    Yuan Ji replied, "If you don''t want to share with me, it''s alright¡­"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly as she cupped his mouth, "We are curious to know!"

    Yuan Ji muttered, "Women¡­"

    "What did you say?" All the maidens were suddenly looking at him with a cold gaze.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Please continue."

    "This is actually a secret of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. My mother is actually from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce while my second aunt is from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. When my mother and second aunt had both passed away, I was forced to take over the leadership positions of both sects. Other than me, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue are also from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect." Xia Jiajia exined slowly.

    Yuan Ji interrupted with a weak smile, "So that day when I was at the Sacred Maiden Ceremony, you already know that I was there?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded with a smile.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue immediately said to Yuan Ji, "We told you so!"

    Yuan Ji muttered weakly, "This is only a lucky guess."

    Yuan Ji turned to look at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "But they are always with me. How did they inform you?"

    Xia Jiajia replied, "They don''t have to. Your intentions are already known to me for several months ahead. Moreover I was following you."

    Yuan Ji was gasping, "You are following me?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded. "I was there when you broke Maiden Feiyue''s heart and she was weeping outside your room."

    Yuan Ji: ...

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly lowered her head with an awkward look, "He is such a badass rascal..."

    Yuan Ji was suddenlyughing softly. It was because he had suddenly realized something, "So Jiajia, you have actually sent Wuwu and Baiyue to protect me?"

    Xia Jiajia nodded, "I''ve told them not to make it too obvious that they are there to protect you or else you will take advantage of them. But you take advantage of them nheless."

    Yuan Ji chuckled weakly. "Haha..."

    "Jiajia..." Yuan Ji was actually quite touched. "That means that when I was at the Celestial Orthodox Sect for the very first time, you are also there."

    Xia Jiajia nodded with a bitter smile, "I didn''t expect that you will be so outrageous to flirt so directly with the Sacred Maiden."

    Xue Qianxue stammered weakly, "He is really a badass rascal! He keeps touching me nonstop. In the end, I had no other choice!"

    That was a tant lie.

    But everyone, including Yuan Ji did not expose her because they knew that she was only defending herself out of shyness. If Xue Qianxue did not like Yuan Ji, she would have killed him on the spot.

    Xia Jiajia inhaled a soft sigh as she smiled, "Actually I have no interest to meddle in the affairs of the celestial fraternity so the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect are not exactly well-known¡­"

    "I have heard rumors that you are using maidens for your melting cauldron. This is pretty well-known." Yuan Ji interrupted with a chuckle.

    Xia Jiajia returned him an annoyed look, "Do not confuse the Hundred Flower Divine Pce with the Evil Cultivation Pce. But some days ago, I did have a lovely prisoner from the Evil Cultivation Pce here. She is the Little Princess from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Yuan Ji was startled as he stammered, "Where is she? Bring me to her."

    Xia Jiajia looked at him from up to down, "You know her?" She pretended to ask. Obviously she knows they know each other.

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily, "Yea. I know her."

    "Just friends?" Xia Jiajia asked.

    "Yea, just friends. Haha." Yuan Ji replied with a sheepish look but all of a sudden, he noticed that the other maidens had a look of disbelief in their eyes. So he added, "Of course we are just friends. We''re just drinking friends. Don''t think too much. Where is she?"

    He was actually thinking. I mustn''t let them know about my ugly past with Little Princess. If they know that I am her dual cultivation partner then they will surely look down upon me¡­

    But still he was eager to know her whereabouts.

    "Your drinking partner?" Xia Jiajia hummed sarcastically. "Do you know Little Princess status? Will she drinks with you?"

    Yuan Ji replied shamelessly with a grin, "Not when your drinking partner is a Sword Saint and the Great Poet Ji Yuan. Haha."

    "But you don''t have your beard now. How do you expect her to recognize you?" Xia Jiajia giggled softly.

    Yuan Ji was rolling his eyes. Crap. How am I able to out talk her? Jiajia is so smart. I can fool the others but not her¡­

    But Xia Jiajia soon said, "She isn''t around anymore. Like I say, she was my prisoner a few days ago but she had since made her escape while my men were not paying attention."

    "Oh¡­" Yuan Ji replied. But he was actually secretly thinking. She probably charmed your men and slipped away. She is a really very charming maiden¡­

    Xia Jiajia smiled as she said, "Feiyue, Qianxue. You must be curious why I had set you up too, am I right?"

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were both giggling, "That is right!"

    Xue Qianxue asked, "So what brings you into the picture?"

    Xia Jiajia sighed softly, "It is a long story. Let me start from the beginning first. 200+ years ago, I happen to be at the auction house¡­"

    At that time Little Princess had auctioned off a portrait of a beardless Ji Yuan which she dered as the portrait of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    Xia Jiajia happened to be at the auction house when Hua Wuwu had informed her, "Our informant has told me that this is really the beardless portrait of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan. I really don''t know how she got his beardless portrait."

    Xia Jiajia took a second nce at the portrait as she muttered, "His beardless look is really handsome. I can''t believe that they are the same person."

    Hua Baiyue giggled, "I have heard that this Ji Yuan prided his beard dearly so how is it possible for Little Princess to have his beardless look?"

    Hua Wuwu pondered for a while before saying, "I can''t remember an instance that he is without his beard."

    They did not know that Little Princess had the portrait for a long time. When she had heard that Ji Yuan had be a Sword Saint, she had purposely sold it to the auction house just to spite him so that he would suffer a great loss of face. In this way, he would remember her forever.

    Xia Jiajia lowered her voice to whisper to Hua Wuwu, "Bid it under the name of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    Hua Wuwu asked, "Mistress, are you sure? This Ji Yuan is like a typical young master and a rascal. He is always flirting, is arrogant and often fights in the streets."<sub> </sub>

    But Xia Jiajia said, "It is just a hunch feeling. I''m just curious about him. Do as I''ve said."

    At that time she was already reading Ji Yuan''s lesser known poems and was intrigued about him.

    "Alright Mistress."

    "Ten thousand high grade spirit stones!" That was the bid from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    When everyone had learnt that the bidder was from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, naturally they did not dare to bid more. Moreover at that time Ji Yuan was actually an unknown despite his renown as a Sword Saint. Therefore no one was willing to give his portrait a second look. The biggest reason was because this portrait was a beardless Ji Yuan and the men disdained it.

    It was only when he had gained fame as a Great Poet that the people regretted their decisions not to bid for his beardless portrait.

    That was how the Hundred Flower Divine Pce got the one and only beardless portrait of Ji Yuan.

    Little Princess actually did not expect that someone would actually bid for the portrait. After all, she had set the bid to be extremely high and she just wants to exhibit Ji Yuan shame to everyone. When she had regretted it, it was already toote.

    When Ji Yuan had heard Xia Jiajia, he was stammering. "This¡­this¡­you mean that you have actually recognized me on the first day that I havee to the Emperor Hall Sect¡­because you have my portrait all along¡­"

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "I''ve been looking at your portrait for many centuries and often wonder what you look like behind your beard."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue had a bashful look as she lowered her eyes to say coyly, "Jiajia once proposed a stratagem for me to force you to shave off your beard so that I may have another one of your beardless portrait."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I know that part. You''ve told me. But honestly speaking I am way better looking when I have my long beard¡­"

    All the maidens suddenly had a disgusted look in their eyes, including Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Xia Jiajia put her fingers near her mouth as she chuckled silently. She soon continued. "Many yearster when I had learnt that Ji Yuan had actually extolled the great beauties of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, I was actually quite unhappy. In that poem, he had actually put my hundred flowers below the seven major ns and the two great beauties."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "I know that part..." Xia Jiajia had already told him.

    "So when I had learnt that Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were interested to meet Ji Yuan so I hatched a n."

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly, "You''re sure well-informed. You have a spy in our midst?"

    Ling Feiyue was also smiling weakly, "That''s right..."

    Xia Jiajiaughed softly, "It doesn''t take a good spy to know that you admire Ji Yuan. Everyone knows that the two of you have been reciting his poems all the time."

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had bashfully turned their heads away. They felt like digging a big hole right now...

    When Yuan Ji saw that they were so embarrassed, he quickly decided to distract Xia Jiajia and everyone''s attention.

    So he turned to Xia Jiajia to chuckle, "Jiajia, I have heard that the Hundred Flower Divine Pce has many miracle remedies. I can see that your four elders all have beautiful beards. Do you think that you can help me to regrow my beard?"

    Except for Xia Jiajia, all the other maidens were suddenly gasping as they prayed that Xia Jiajia did not have a remedy for that.

    But Xia Jiajia smiled as she threw a small bottle to him, "I do have one. But you must take care not to consume it all at once and you can only take one pill every month. After taking the pill, wash your face with alcohol."

    Yuan Ji was startled and his spirit had suddenly lifted up. He gave Jiajia a big hug and said excitingly, "Jiajia! I love you the most! Haha!"

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "You are my future lord, naturally I will have to obligate your requests to the best of my ability."

    "Surrender that bottle!" Ling Feiyue said unhappily.

    Xue Qianxue gasped in great exasperation, "You look alright with your current look. Why bother with your beard?"

    But Yuan Jiughed, "No way!" And he had already run far away.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were all looking unhappily at Xia Jiajia. "Why did you give him that remedy for? Do you know that he looks really ugly with his beard?"

    Xia Jiajia giggled all of a sudden, "Although I do have a divine remedy but that is not the one that I have given him. In fact, using that earlier remedy, he will have no hope of ever using the beard growing divine remedy or any divine remedy ever again."

    When Xia Jiajia had said that, all the maidens were allughing and giggling jovially.

    "Good one, Jiajia."

    "How can you say that to him with such a straight face, I''m impressed..."

    "This will teach him a lesson¡­"

    "Your yacting is so convincing that even we are fooled¡­"

    "He actually believes you¡­"

    Xia Jiajia sighed softly, "I haven''t finished my story yet and he has already run off."

    Then she smiled to the other maidens, "Ji Yuan is too unpredictable. Although my ns a hundred year ago is quite well thought but it still can''t catch a slippery fish like Ji Yuan."

    Ling Feiyueughed, "Maybe you don''t even need to n all these for him. He already likes you at the very start. We''re all there to pick the pieces."

    Xia Jiajia lowered her eyes, "I have yet to see if he is worthy for me a hundred years ago. But now I know he is."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Jiajia, in the future you will be one of our sisters. But you will be ranked 6th. So you have to call us your older sisters. It doesn''t matter what your current status is but you got to follow our hierarchy."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "Fourth Pce Mistress Ling Feiyue, I''m afraid that my ranking is higher than anyone of you!"

    "Why do you say that?"

    "Because I am the founder of the Emperor Hall Sect!" Xia Jiajiaughed softly. "Therefore even Yuan Ji must also acknowledge me as his elder."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were all giggling, "That is right! Our Mistress is ranked higher than anyone of you!"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Bai Qianfeng, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    All of a sudden they had all realized that Xia Jiajia was already several steps ahead of them.

    Xia Jiajia was looking at Bai Qianfeng all of a sudden with a smile, "Maiden Qianfeng, you seem to have an extraordinary air around you. I wonder what is your background and how do you get to know Yuan Ji?"

    "I am just an ordinary maiden." Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "I have no home. From now on, I will be following Yuan Ji¡­"

 Chapter 129 Yuan Ji Vs. Xia Jiajia

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Bai Qianfeng, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were now watching Yuan Ji and Xia Jiajia. It was because Yuan Ji and Xia Jiajia were now dueling with each other and they had already drawing swords!

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, the four elders and the dozens of prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce were naturally rooting for their Divine Pce Master to win.

    Yuan Ji was now pointing his half-step celestial sword at Xia Jiajia, "How many times must you trick me? You dare to trick me with a fake remedy! If I don''t teach you a lesson today then I am not Ji Yuan!"

    "Hmph! Empty talks!"

    Xia Jiajia had already unsheathed her celestial sword which was a long golden sword with white edges. The name of her celestial-step divine sword was the Hundred Flower Divine Sword.

    When she had unsheathed her divine sword, Yuan Ji could feel a sublime suppression that was upon him. It was like a deadly that had surrounded him, forcing him to be trapped under the deadly eyes of her sword.

    He had immediately raised his divine sword high and the double halo of his sword began to free him from the deadly suppression.

    "Although your divine sword is formidable but it cannot restrict me." Yuan Ji said cockily.

    Xia Jiajia swung her sword and there was also a double halo as her divine sword began to give off a deadly golden radiance. But it was futile to restrict Yuan Ji now as he was now like a soaring dragon that was surrounding by his formidable martial spirit.

    "Jiajia, don''t me me for your injuries because I won''t be merciful to you! But as a gentleman of the sword, I will let you have the first strike first!" Yuan Ji said coldly.

    "No, Ji Yuan!" All the five maidens on his side were shouting for him not to be foolish.

    "Then don''t regret it." Xia Jiajia smiled coldly as she had shed forward with a swing of her sword.

    When she had swung her sword, the light of sword broke through their air in the form of several exploding airbursts as her profound power manifested through her sword like a gigantic proton of light to smack at Yuan Ji.

    Yuan Ji was already prepared for her attack as he had mustered all his profound strength into his sword. Although he had no formidable defensive profound art to tank against her attack but he knew that it would cost her more profound strength into using a powerful profound attack.

    His stratagem was really simply; he would defend first hence conserving his profound strength for a counter-attack. When she had weakened herself by using too much of her profound strength then her profound power, speed and reflexes would all slow down. Then it would be a perfect opportunity for him to counter-attack.

    Although he did not want to hurt her but she must understand that she was dueling with a Sword Saint and all Sword Saints are no pushovers when ites to fighting.

    So he channeled all his profound strength as profound power into his sword as he parried her sword attack. Because he was defending, he would be retracting his profound strength quickly into his recovery.

    You really think that I am giving you the benefit of a first strike? Fat chance! Jiajia, you have fallen into my ruse! I am merely tricking you to expend your profound strength!

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji was lifted through the air and he was mmed into the walls of the cliff with a thunderous impact!

    Such was the overwhelming profound power of Xia Jiajia''s profound attack that he was lifted from the ground even though he had blocked with all his profound strength; he was sent flying all the way backward until his back had mmed into the cliff.

    Yuan Ji was stunned, "Her profound power is 200% of mine?!"

    But before he could even contemte further, Xia Jiajia had shed straight in front of him and had unleashed two double shes in the shape of a gigantic cross that further crashed Yuan Ji into the cliff!

    This time round Yuan Ji was not able to defendpletely and he had coughed blood.

    But his right hand was quick enough to channel his remaining profound strength into a counter-attack as he unleashed three perfect sword energies into the ground as it split into six deadly sword energies that sshed upon Xia Jiajia.

    Sorry, Jiajia. Even if you have the most powerful defensive profound art but you have already used all your profound strength into attacking me. Therefore this is the price that you must pay!

    All of a sudden Xia Jiajia had lifted her hand into disying a finger stance.

    "Golden Nirvana Divine Skill!"

    With a soft shout, she had dissipated the deadly sword energies attacks into nothingness with a brilliant golden glow on her fingers!

    "What the¡­Jiajia you cheat¡­" Yuan Ji was stunned by her counter-attack. He had never seen anything like this before.

    But before he could protest, a bigger proton light had swung at him again. This time it was even fiercer than before and this attack had cut a deadly line across Yuan Ji''s chest and arms!

    All five maidens were muttering, "He lost utterly¡­this is too horrible¡­will Ji Yuan die?"

    Xia Jiajia swung her attack and smiled delightfully, "So how is it? Sword Saint Ji Yuan, do you admit that you are inferior to this saintess here?"

    Yuan Ji muttered weakly, "Do you really want to kill me? You really are not showing me any mercy at all. And what is this cultivation profound art cheat that you are using? If you don''t use that, I will surely be able to beat you."

    "And what is the meaning of this? Can''t you see that I am struck in the cliff walls? Where your martial honor? How can you attack me when I am down?"

    "Alright. Let''s fight again." Xia Jiajia smiled and replied nonchntly.

    "Wait! I need an hour for my wounds to recover first." Yuan Ji solemnly said.

    "This is too thick skin¡­" Many of the onlookers were secretly muttering. "Is he really a Sword Saint?"

    Even the five maidens were feeling awkward. "He should give it up¡­"

    "He is trying to save his face now¡­"

    An hourter¡­

    Yuan Ji was once again sent flying and forced to eat mud as Xia Jiajia stepped on his sword hand.

    "Well, are you convinced now?" Xia Jiajia asked him.

    "Again! There are so many onlookers here and I don''t feelfortable to use my secret sword skills. Give me another hour to recuperate."

    Another hourter¡­

    This time Yuan Ji was fell by a single sword stroke from Xia Jiajia.<sub> </sub>

    "Jiajia, you are a great saintess. Do you need to use your full profound strength all the time? If you have the guts why don''t wepare using our swordy instead?"

    "Ji Yuan, you are too shameless!" Xia Jiajia giggled softly. "Therefore you have to abide by our agreement. From today onward, you will be known as Yuan Ji and not Ji Yuan anymore. And you will be the beardless Yuan Ji."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji protested loudly, "It''s unfair that you have a celestial sword plus you have several divine profound arts to empower you. This duel isn''t fair at all¡­"

    All of a sudden all five of the maidens had interrupted him by stepping all over him, "He has lost! He will be Yuan Ji! No more beard! Jiajia, please spare him¡­"

    Yuan Ji was thinking. They should be helping me to get up. Why are they stepping all over me and making decisions over my beard for me?

    He was right. The five maidens were actually hoping that he would lose and he had to stop mentioning his beard again. Although the maidens appeared to be pleading for him but they had purposely stepped on him to prevent him from getting up.

    "Jiajia, I only lost to you because I do not have the heart to beat you up. It''s not because I really lost to you¡­" Yuan Ji was still protesting nonstop.

    Xia Jiajia hummed coldly, "You''re still a little weaker than Sword Saint Xiao Shenji. When you are at his level thene and challenge me."

    "How can Sword Saint Xiao Shenji bepared to me? When I''m at the Great Saint level, I will definitely be stronger than him." Yuan Ji muttered almost incoherently.

    But he was secretly startled. Jiajia was actually stronger than he had thought. He was really not her match¡­

    If I want to beat her, I need to narrow down our power disparity first. If not, I will never stand a chance. I need to trick her not to use her celestial sword¡­

    Even the five maidens were startled that Xia Jiajia would actually be so formidable. Even if Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had joined hands together against her, they were not confident that they would be able to defeat her.

    After Yuan Ji had dressed his wounds, Xia Jiajia said to them. "The other six major orthodox ns are now on their way to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly. It was because that was her sect that the six major orthodox ns were attacking.

    "Therefore it is important for Sister Feiyue to return to her sect first to organize her sect defenses. Please pardon me for unable to aid you openly. I hope that you can understand." Xia Jiajia said quietly.

    Yuan Ji and the five maidens nodded quietly.

    Xia Jiajia was really caught in a dilemma. It was already bad enough that her Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect was not helping the other six major orthodox ns. If she were to assist Ling Feiyue to deal with the six major orthodox ns then would she not be betraying the orthodox fraternity?

    If she uses the name of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce then the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would also be an enemy to the rest of the orthodox fraternity and it would be hard for the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to have a footing in the orthodox fraternity.

    In the past, the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had nearly lost its footing in the orthodox fraternity by destroying the eighth major celestial n but had also paid a heavy price for it.

    Moreover Xia Jiajia was now waging a ndestine war with the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Yuan Ji smiled, "No problem! We understand!"

    Xia Jiajia lightly caressed his cheek, "My lord. I hope that I will be able to see you soon. Stay alive and be well."

    Yuan Ji returned a grin, "I will."

    Xia Jiajia turned to Shangguan Yan and smiled, "I see that you''re now a peaked fourth realm cultivator now. Yuan Ji and the other sisters must have been feeding you some good tonicstely, am I right? Come with me. I will help you to ovee your life and death tribtion for your fifth realm golden celestial level."

    Shangguan Yan gasped, "Can I really be a golden celestial?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled softly as she winked at her, "Will I lie to you? We have been friends for a 100 years now."

    Shangguan Yan stammered, "Thank you¡­Pce Mistress Xia¡­"

    Xia Jiajia gave her a gentle tug, "I''m your Sister Jiajia now and you are my Sister Yan, alright? No more Pce Mistress Xia. This is too polite."

    Shangguan Yan turned to look at Yuan Ji, "Can I go with Sister Jiajia?"

    Yuan Ji nodded, "Don''t worry. Go with her."

    He was actually delighted that Xia Jiajia will be able to help Shangguan Yan to ovee to the fifth realm level. This was actually something that was bothering him secretly. Shangguan Yan had a weaker fortitude and he was actually worried that she may not survive her divine tribtion.

    Then he remembered something and took the Red Dragon Divine Pill that he had found in the trials. "Yan''Er, this is for you. I have found it."

    Shangguan Yan gasped with shock. "Isn''t this the Red Dragon Divine Pill? This is a fifth rank divine pill..."

    Yuan Ji chuckled as he took a look at Xia Jiajia. "That is right. You had given me one in the past. That is, unless Jiajia wants it back."

    Xia Jiajia smiled, "So you are the thief."

    Yuan Jiughed, "I am sure you don''t mind this little loss. You''re too rich."

    Xia Jiajia returned a smile before she turned to Fairy Ye Chengxi with a beautiful smile, "Sister Chengxi, you are also almost a sixth realm golden supremacy too. Come with me too if you''re willing. I will help you with the cultivation resources of my sect."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi took a look at Yuan Ji who nodded before she smiled, "Sister Jiajia, Chengxi is happy toe with you. Please give Chengxi your instructions!"

    Xia Jiajiaughed softly, "I dare not give instructions. But I will give the two of you plenty of help."

 Chapter 130 Yuan Jis Secret Trump Card, Exposed

    Xia Jiajia inhaled a soft sigh as she bid Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng goodbye as they took off on their Spirit Crane.

    Behind her were Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Xia Jiajia cast a mncholy look as she pulled her sights from the departing Yuan Ji.

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "Don''t worry, we will see them again very soon!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded lightly to Shangguan Yan but her heavenly eyes were still on the Spirit Crane that was fast disappearing into a dot in the heavens, "We will definitely will."

    Xia Jiajia turned around as she held gently onto the hands of Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, "It must be hard on the two of you all this while. I hope that I didn''t give you a big fright."

    "Not at all. Now that we know it is you, we are quite relieved now." Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled.

    Shangguan Yan shifted her elegant eyes and made a softughter, "Sister Jiajia, why did you bash Brother Yuan Ji in such an awful manner. You totally didn''t give him any face at all."

    When Fairy Ye Chengxi had heard her, she sighed softly. "That Undying Fighting Spirit of his is making his actions look a littleedical."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were giggling by the side when they had heard Fairy Ye Chengxi. They were able to taunt Yuan Ji in the past because of it.

    Xia Jiajia lowered her head and brushed against the gentle slope of her long hair. She inhaled silently before she turned to everyone to say, "Do you know that he had lost to me on purpose."

    Everyone: ???

    Xia Jiajia exined quietly, "He obviously knows that I have the stronger profound power and yet he did not hesitate to receive my attack. He is just trying to gauge our disparity so that he will be better prepared next time."

    Shangguan Yan returned a startled gasp, "That is right. Brother Yuan Ji has always taught us never to meet power with power. With his speed attack, he can naturally weaken Sister Jiajia''s profound attack and he won''t be a clown."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had a sudden realization as well. "But yet, he allowed himself to be beaten into a pathetic state. But why?"

    She averted her eyes, "Chengxi is not as smart as both sisters. Please enlighten me!"

    Xia Jiajia said quietly, "This is his way of protecting my face and also to keep my profound arts a secret."

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "It is more than that. He doesn''t want to hurt Sister Jiajia the least bit. Even though he may be saying so but his heart is doing otherwise."

    Xia Jiajia turned her beautiful back to look at the ck dot with an alluring smile, "That''s right. He is a good man. He is actually stronger than Sword Saint Xiao Shenji. He is the strongest sword cultivator that I ever known."

    "He is stronger than Sword Saint Xiao Shenji?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously. She was a Sword Saintess but she could only see that Yuan Ji had been totally suppressed by Xia Jiajia.

    Xia Jiajia nodded as she gave a wry smile, "Did you see how fast he can counter-attack with his sword energies attack? I was so startled that I was forced to use my Golden Nirvana Divine Skill."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "But you havepletely neutralized it."

    Xia Jiajia chuckled, "I saw his little fingers twitched. If I am not wrong, he can still release another sword energies attack in that narrow window but he suppressed the urge to do so. If I''m not wrong, he must have already mastered his Natural Instinct. Therefore the speed of channeling his profound energies should be shortened by a lot."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped, "So this is his trump card? How do you know?"

    Xia Jiajia chuckled softly as she looked at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "Well, I have two lovely spies here. But that is only my guess. I have heard of this Natural Instinct before. It sounds easy to learn but is actually extremely difficult to begin with. The cultivator must first be at the saint level and his soul core must be quite pure. If I''m not strong, he must have visited the Dream Trial while he had visited Diviner Mo Ming."<sub> </sub>

    Hua Wuwu could not resist a chuckle, "He probably fails the Dream Trial and he can only learn his Natural Instinct to the basic level only. I''m quite sure that his soul core is extremely impure."

    Even Hua Baiyue wasughing too. "That''s right!"

    Shangguan Yan asked curiously, "What is this Natural Instinct skill?" Although she was smart but she could not understand what was this skill was about.

    Xia Jiajia exined patiently, "It is actually a heart intricate profound skill that can bend the spirit with the body and the soul as one. No matter how much a cultivator trains their reflexes, there is a limit. But with this Natural Instinct, the cultivator will be able to maximize their body''stent potential. I think Yuan Ji may be trying to increase his speed attack even more and it is even possible to go over the limit with this heart intricate profound skill."

    Hua Wuwu giggled as she whispered to Hua Baiyue, "Sister, I think he is learning this skill to improve his stealth so that he can go around to peep at people. No wonder I feel that his fingers are so quick recently when he was removing our clothing. Or he is learning to tap his body potential so that he can handle his consorts¡­"

    p Xia Jiajia, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­</anda>

    Hua Baiyue had an awkward look as she kicked Hua Wuwu, "Sister, don''t talk rubbish in front of our mistress¡­"

    "Ops, sorry." Hua Wuwu bashfully lowered her head.

    Xia Jiajia shook her head in resignation, "Wuwu, you are getting more and more outrageous. First you have a slip of your tongue, enabling Yuan Ji to find out about my identity and now you are talking rubbish."

    Hua Wuwu protested almost incoherently and she was looking extremely sheepish, "I''m¡­speaking¡­the¡­truth¡­"

    Xia Jiajia sighed and decided to ignore her for now.

    She turned to Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi to say, "Do you know anything about this Bai Qianfeng? She was really quiet when she was around us."

    "Not a lot." They answered at the same time.

    "There were only the four of you when you had arrived plus a nine-tail spirit fox. But after she had appeared, the nine-tail spirit fox was no longer around. She is the nine-tail spirit fox?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded. "She is."

    Xia Jiajia inhaled deeply, "She isn''t human?"

    Everyone: ???

    Xia Jiajia exined, "No cultivators can transform themselves into a spirit beast or into something else. Therefore she is definitely not human."

    Hua Baiyue gasped, "Don''t tell me that she really is a ten thousand year old spirit fox that can take human form?"

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan and Hua Wuwu were startled. "She is really not human?"

    "Will Yuan Ji be in danger?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked hastily. Then she shook her head, "I can tell that she loves Yuan Ji a lot. She is always quietly looking at him. I''m certain that she won''t harm him."

    Shangguan Yan nodded to agree with Fairy Ye Chengxi. "I can tell that she won''t harm Brother Yuan Ji too."

    Xia Jiajia said, "I do not know but she is definitely a mystery."

 Chapter 131 First Citadel Lord Yin Wei

    In a secret mountain citadel that was somewhere in the orthodox fraternity; this was actually a hidden mountain citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Deep inside the citadel, in a spacious bed chamber was a naked couple and they were making love with each other.

    The naked maiden was very beautiful and she had her legs spread around the neck of a muscr short beard man and she was moaning with great ecstasy.

    For the past hour, the muscr short beard man had been brutally ying with her and she was actually enjoying it. It was because they were practicing a secret dual cultivation art.

    The man was saying to her, "So who is better. Me or him?"

    The beautiful maiden stammered with pleasure, "Naturally it is you. He can''t bepared to you at all¡­"

    All of a sudden the iron door of the bed chamber was kicked open and a stunning maiden that could cause men to sin in her presence had suddenly appeared at the entrance.

    This stunning maiden was actually Little Princess and she was humming coldly, "First Young Master Yin Wei!"

    The short beard man hummed coldly as he turned his head around and his golden eyes were extremely piercing. "My sister. Is this the way you''re supposed to address your big brother here? And where are your manners?"

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "So you''re unhappy that I am still alive?!"

    The beautiful maiden that was with Yin Wei had suddenly raised her head up to see themotion and she had a gorgeous look. She was drooling and there was a white liquid at the corner of her lips. She looked to be in a daze but she looked extremely horny as she smiled, "Ah~ It is Little Princess. Songjin misses you. Do you want to join me in the bed of your half-brother?"

    When Little Princess saw Zhao Songjin, she coughed out a bout of blood as she staggered weakly. "You! How dare you betray me and caused me to lose three of my citadels!"

    Indeed it was Zhao Songjin. At this moment Yin Wei was still toying with Zhao Songjin in his sister''s presence. He had one hand on Zhao Songjin''s busty mounds while the other hand was fingering her below which caused her to drip uncontrobly.

    Zhao Songjin was shamelessly moaning with pleasure as she moved her hips to amodate Yin Wei. At the same time she was smiling, "I didn''t betray the Evil Cultivation Pce. This is all part of First Young Master''s ns. I am only following it through."

    Little Princess was trembling, "You are supposed to be my follower and my eyes in the Celestial Orthodox Sect. How dare you conspire with Yin Wei to betray me?! You''re a traitor to the Evil Cultivation Pce! I shall inform my father and you have better be prepared to be grinded to pieces!"

    But Zhao Songjin was giggling softly as she winked at Yin Wei.

    Yin Wei was roaring withughter, "Go ahead and do it. I actually have the blessings of our father."

    Little Princess: ¡­

    "Three citadels! Thousands of our cultivators¡­" Little Princess was trembling hard.

    Yin Wei interrupted her with a cold smirk, "We have no other choice. This is the only way to preserve our Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin here. The results are much better than we have expected. Han Yuchi had actually given the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to her and now it is in our hands. Isn''t it good this way? What is the loss of three useless citadelspare to the Sacred Maiden Profound Art?"

    Little Princess said with trembling lips, "These are my citadels, not yours!"

    The Evil Cultivation Pce had three Citadel Lords to lead them. Under their charges were their secret citadel bases that were scattered all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Little Princess was the Third Citadel Lord but recently, all her citadels had been raided and all her moles in the Celestial Orthodox Sect were killed. It was all thanks to the betrayal of Zhao Songjin.

    There were still many survivors but it would take her time to rebuild her base again. But against her two brothers, she was now a toothless tiger with no influence.

    She immediately knew that her brother and Zhao Songjin had taken the opportunity to destroy all her power base. Right from the start, Zhao Songjin was actually a mole of her brother. She had never expected that she was actually her brother''s dual cultivation partner.

    Yin Weiughed, "My dear sister, I''ve thought that you were dead. Now that you are back, your brother is so d. I wonder if you have the mood to cultivate with me. Your Ji Yuan is not going to cultivate with you ever again. So why don''t you do it with me. Together we can even increase our cultivation strength¡­"

    "Zhao Songjin!" Little Princess interrupted him as she turned to stare coldly at Zhao Songjin. "Don''t let mey my hands on you!" With that she had mmed the iron door and stormed off.

    Zhao Songjin giggled to Yin Wei, "Brother Wei, she is still so na?ve after all these years. I can''t believe that she is actually a great saintess."

    Yin Wei smiled lecherously, "We are all from the Evil Cultivation Pce. I can''t believe that she is keeping her body pure for that Ji Yuan? I can''t believe that Ji Yuan is like a cockroach. He has actually survived through the assassination attempts of the ck Hand Guild and several ''idents''."

    Zhao Songjin edged her slippery body closer to Yin Wei and said, "You sound bitter about it? This is so unlike you."<sub> </sub>

    Yin Wei hummed coldly, "I only hate Ji Yuan for taking away the chastity of my half-sister before me."

    Zhao Songjin smiled, "Don''t worry. This Ji Yuan will soon be a dead man. You should know that he has just offended all the major orthodox ns and he is beingbeled as an enemy of all the orthodox cultivators. He can only hide in the unorthodox fraternity for now."

    Yin Wei frowned, "Do you think that he is hiding at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect now?"

    Zhao Songjin nodded, "Most probably. My Matriarch Sacred Maiden is now leading an attack on the Spirit Blue Moon Sect now. But I don''t think he will be a real threat."

    "Why do you say so?"

    "When I have advised my Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi about that Ji Yuan, she asked me not to worry and said that he would be a dead man soon. I don''t know what she means by this but she seems to be extremely confident about it." As Zhao Songjin recalled her conversation with Han Yuchi, she disyed a perplexed look.

    Han Yuchi did not tell her that Yuan Ji was Ji Yuan. The reason why she was confident that Ji Yuan was going to be a dead man was because no one survives a duel with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Maybe there may be some formidable figures in the Deste Celestial Fraternity like the Old Demon Freak who was the Evil Cultivation Master of the Evil Cultivation Pce but definitely not Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was only a sword cultivator, a lowly saint who had no cultivation resources, profound treasures or any known cultivation cheats. How was it possible for Ji Yuan to be alive after his duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?

    Another reason why Han Yuchi had kept Yuan Ji''s identity as Ji Yuan a secret from everyone was because she hoped to change Xue Qianxue''s mind about leaving the Celestial Orthodox Sect. After all Xue Qianxue was the first cultivator to ever attain to the Ninth Rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art.

    Yin Wei yawned softly, "I have no interest in any lesser saints that I can crush like an ant with my thumb. Sword Saint or not, he is just a sword cultivator with no powerful external or internal profound arts to speak of."

    He is a Great Saint therefore initial and middle tier saints are all lesser saints in his eyes.

    Zhao Songjin licked his neck as she asked curiously, "So what is your next n now?"

    Yin Wei smiled lecherous at her, "All these years I have notid my hands on the two great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Can you get Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue for me?"

    Zhao Songjin giggled, "It will be a little hard for me to obtain them for you but for your sake, I will definitely try my best, alright?"

    Yin Weiughed, "You''re indeed my good confidant. They really make good dual cultivation partners."

    "Don''t forget about me once you have them!" Zhao Songjin teased him.

    Yin Wei shrugged his shoulders, "I have thought that you would have forgotten about me after you have Jin Yilong."

    "I am only ying with him. Naturally he cannot bepared to you at all. If I didn''t suck his vitality, I wouldn''t be a middle tier saintess and be a useful tool to you, am I right to say so?" Zhao Songjin giggled softly as she teased him with her light touches and body.

    Yin Wei nodded with a smirk. "And I am reaping your benefits for mine as well. Haha."

    Zhao Songjin smiled, "My lord. So let''s continue? I can''t stay here for too long."

    Yin Weiughed as he threw her onto the bed.

    Three hourster when Zhao Songjin had left the secret citadel, Yin Wei said to his men. "Find me three chaste maidens and have them to practice the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. It is time for me to check if this Sacred Maiden Profound Art is genuine or not."

    Once he had confirmed the authenticity of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art, he would begin to dual cultivate with some of them first.

    Although he was expected to hand over the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to his father the Evil Cultivation Master but there was no harm trying to reap a little benefit first.

    "Erm, it is a little hard to find¡­"

    Yin Wei asked coldly, "We don''t even have a single pure maiden in the citadel?"

    "We will check the other citadels first. Maybe there are some that First Citadel Lord has not touched yet."

    Yin Wei: ¡­

    "Hurry and get it done!"

 Chapter 132 The Exciting Battle In The Sky

    The breeze was cool and the weather was calm as the Spirit Crane flew high up above the mountains.

    Bai Qianfeng was in her nine-tail spirit fox form as she cuddled in Yuan Ji''s arms. She had indicated to him that she would prefer to be in her spirit beast form unless it is necessary for her to show herself up.

    It was because she was really too catchy and peerless in her human form. Even if she were to wear a veil, she still will not be able to hide her unearthly attraction due to her immortal presence. Her vibes were even more heavenly than Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    That was the reason why it had even caused Xiang Li to break her promise to Yuan Ji as she materialized out of his soul sea to watch them in their first love battle and also the subsequent ones. And Xiang Li had only broken this promise in Bai Qianfeng''s presence.

    Right now Yuan Ji was enjoying the cool breeze with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue but in front of the two most beautiful maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, his hands were actually quite naughty.

    Xue Qianxue teased him, "So how is the feeling? I mean having your Jiajia in your arms?"

    Yuan Ji grinned, "She is really soft and has a heavenly scent around her." But he was soon sighing heavily. "It is really a pity that we have to part again so soon. I still have many things to chat with her."

    His Jiajia had waited for him to exit his cultivation retreat and had even prepared the regaining profound pills for him. Even though he was dead poor but she knew that he would not ept her gifts due to his pride. Therefore she had found the Emperor Hall Sect in the Five Heavens Peaks to await his return.

    When he saw her again, he thought that she was a bimbo because he could not believe his good luck when he had thought that he had conned her. The other four dead elders of the Emperor Hall Sect had also thought that she was a bimbo and had never repent their actions even though they had a hundred years to do so.

    Instead they had taken advantage of their position as elders of the Emperor Hall Sect to expand their influences and even nted their moles in Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing''s pce retinue.

    They were naturally not afraid of Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing because to them, she was only a lone and vulnerable sixth realm golden supremacy and was not the match of theirbined strength. As long as they stay united, they were untouchable by Xia Jiaqing.

    But never have they suspected that their Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing is actually a peak seventh realm great saintess that can take away their lives at a moment notice.

    To the four dead elders, they are after all golden supremacies and golden supremacies have a lofty status in the cultivation fraternity because saints were too rare. Moreover it is in the backwaters of the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Therefore they had the right to be arrogant and had paid for their arrogance with their lives because their Pce Mistress Xia Jiaqing was only waiting for Ji Yuan to return so that she can keep their 100 year pledge.

    Although Xia Jiajia had kept her marriage pledge for Ji Yuan but she had to test him further because he had not proven that he was worthy of her yet. It was all too easy for men to like a beautiful maiden and Xia Jiajia did not want Ji Yuan to like her because of her beautiful looks. She needed to know his sincerity too.

    Therefore she had set a test for him.

    She was quite surprised that Ji Yuan did not even betray her under threats of death from her two great saint elders. Therefore she had purposely given him another six months to think over his duel.

    Then she had purposely revealed herself as Saintess Fang Zhenfei. Now you know who I am. Will you betray me?

    But he continued to be tight-lipped.

    Although Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were sent to secretly protect him but they also had a secret mission and that was to tempt him into betraying Xia Jiajia (herself) and to be her eyes to check his character.

    Along the way, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had indeed painted the Hundred Flower Divine Pce as a horrible and frightening sect so as to intimidate him into giving up his fight.

    Along the way, Xia Jiajia had actually been following them and that was why the two sister saintesses had been so bold.

    In short, Xia Jiajia had never truly left him until he had made his escape with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue. As they had escaped on a flying mount, she decided not to follow them for the time being as she had an affair to settle with the Evil Cultivation Pce for the time being. She had actually spotted Little Princess during the Sacred Maiden Ceremony and knew that she was up to no good.

    She could actually still follow Yuan Ji if she wanted to because she still had his profound signature.

    When she had asked Yuan Ji why did he not remove the profound signature that was on him given that thebined profound strength of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue would certainly be able to remove the profound signature, Yuan Ji replied to her that he felt good that ''someone'' was constantly protecting his back before his duel.

    That caused Xia Jiajia to be rendered almost speechless.

    Yuan Ji had secretly told her, "Actually I didn''t feel that the Old Master is someone that wanted me dead because he would have killed me at any point of the time. Although I didn''t know that ''he'' is actually you but I feel that the Old Master is actually a honorable person that is worthy to have a duel with. I have never met such a nice opponent that will actually send two lovely saintesses to protect me until the time of our duel. If you were me, won''t you find it a little strange as well? So even if I were killed by the Old Master, I can rest in peace knowing that he is someone that will keep his promise to spare the Five Heavens Peaks."

    That was actually what they had secretly shared with each other just before Yuan Ji had left.

    Back to the present;

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly as she continued after Xue Qianxue had just spoken, "Someone here must be quite sour that he didn''t have the opportunity to screw her."

    Yuan Ji frowned immediately, "You know that I am a gentleman of the sword and I don''t always think of this sort of thing in my head."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue immediately caught hold of his fingers as they chuckled at the same time, "And what are your ten fingers doing now?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "It''s just my natural reflexes. The two of you are pressing onto me and I did it unwittingly."<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue threw him a light punch, "Hmph! You''re not honest at all. Maybe Sister Qianxue and I should set a test for you like Jiajia? What do you say?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded with a wry smile, "That''s right! We should set a test for you!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji began to smile bitterly, "After what happens a hundred years ago, the two of you are still testing me? Moreover it is toote to set any test now."

    "Why so?" the two maidens asked curiously at the same time.

    Yuan Ji roared withughter, "Because the rice had already been cooked!"

    "You badass rascal¡­" Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were kicking and beating him from all sides.

    "Go on. I don''t feel any pain at all." Yuan Jiughed. "Why are all your punches and kicks so light?"

    It was true. Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were only teasing him and they were only hitting him lightly without the use of any profound strength.

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had grabbed the two maidens at the same time and had put them in front of him.

    "Yuan Ji! What are you doing?" the two maidens were startled.

    Yuan Jiughed as he gently put Xiaobai quietly behind him before saying. "The trip may be a little long so why don''t we have a little fun while in the air?"

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "This is not a good idea, am I right? What if there are some other aerial cultivators around?"

    "Sister Qianxue is right. Moreover, Qianfeng is also here. This is a little too outrageous, am I right?" Ling Feiyue averted her eyes shyly.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Qianfeng don''t mind. She is already used to seeing us in action."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had already lifted their skirts up to reveal their lovely slender thighs.

    He knew that they were game for it because they were just saying that this was not a good idea and had never said that they were unwilling to do it.

    Soon he was riding them after putting Xue Qianxue on top of Ling Feiyue''s legs.

    Xiang Li was expressing her absolute delight in Yuan Ji''s soul sea and she was pping delightfully. "YES!!! Finally!!!"

    Ling Feiyue muttered with great shyness, "This is too ridiculous. How can you think of this¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was also flustered with shyness, "Let''s hope there is really no one around¡­if not I will surely die of shame¡­"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Don''t worry, my eyes are very sharp. I can spot them before they spotted us. Moreover, I will only be inconspicuously lifting up your skirts. So there is nothing to be worried about."

    The two maidens shyly nodded. They had actually missed Yuan Ji''s touches and they did not want to miss out any opportunities to be intimated with him. Now that Yuan Ji had given them some assurances, they were most willing to do it.

    Ling Feiyue''s eyes were beaming with boldness because this was something quite exciting to her.

    She chuckled softly, "Yuan Ji, I am pretty sure that you are an unorthodox cultivator instead of an orthodox cultivator. Because only you will think of something like this."

    Xue Qianxue lowered her eyes with great shyness as she quickly put on a veil, "If we fall from here, it will be most awkward. Let''s hope that no one is really looking our way." But as a precaution, she had veiled herself quietly.

    A few hourster, they were still doing it but Yuan Ji had suddenly said to them. "There is something below the mountains. A group of cultivators are chasing some weaker cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue asked him as she quickly pulled down her ck skirt, "You want to intervene?"

    Yuan Ji nodded quietly as he replied slowly, "There are many female cultivators in the weaker group and they are bitterly crying. I got to take a quick look."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "I don''t mind. This won''t take long."

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "We should take a look. If they are in need of help, we cannot pretend that we didn''t see it."

    With that she had guided her Spirit Crane to descend onto the mountains below.

 Chapter 133 The Secret Citadel Base (1)

    A group of twenty cultivators had now cornered a small group of ten female cultivators.

    The ten female cultivators were all in bitter tears as they looked fearfully at the aggressive bigger group that had them surrounded.

    Earlier, their caravan had been ambushed by these unknown cultivators and all the men had been brutally killed. The head of their caravan was actually a strong fifth realm golden celestial but he was quickly killed and dozens of dead bodies soon resulted from the ambush.

    They were actually from the nearby Iron Vessel n and were on the way to the nearby city to trade for cultivation resources.

    These twenty cultivators were really too vicious!

    The female cultivators from the Iron Vessel n could not believe that they would be so viciously attacked by some unknown cultivators for no apparent reason and that their defenses were like paper in front of these attackers.

    The Iron Vessel n had no real enemies and they were in the heart of the orthodox fraternity which was far away from the major conflicts between the unorthodox and orthodox cultivators. So why should anyone be so bold to attack a caravan that was escorted by over a hundred cultivators?

    But this group of vicious cultivators had dared to. And among the twenty cultivators presented, three of them were golden celestials. This fact alone made all the difference.

    One of the golden celestials looked with great disdain at the female cultivators that were weeping bitterly in front of them, "You''re all just first to third realm cultivators and horribly weak. Do you believe that I can take your lives with just a single sword stroke? Hurry up and drop your swords or don''t me us for being ruthless with youter."

    Another golden celestial from the same group hummed coldly, "Who are the virgins and who are not virgins? Own yourself up."

    But all the female cultivators refused to say a word and there were tears on their faces. Somehow they knew that they were not going to escape their fates today.

    One of the female cultivators managed to stammer out, "The Iron Vessel n has no feud with you whatever so. Why did you attack our caravan and what do you want with us?"

    This female cultivator was really pretty and she had immediately aroused the lecherous looks of the badass cultivators. Moreover she was wearing a low body bodice that was showing her beautiful curves and her skirt was really short.

    The third golden celestialughed aloud, "Of course we have no feud with you. Does the Evil Cultivation Pce needs a reason to kill anyone?"

    When the female cultivators heard that these vicious cultivators were from the Evil Cultivation Pce, they had immediately turned ashen and they knew what their final fate would be!

    Two of the female cultivators immediately fainted on the spot when they had heard that they were actually from the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    The female cultivator that had just spoken had now turnedpletely ashen but she mustered whatever little courage that she could to stammer out, "My father, he¡­is the Sect Master of the¡­Iron Vessel n¡­he will not let you off¡­if you dare to vite us!"

    When the vicious cultivators had heard her threat, they were allughing heartily.

    "Sect Master of the Iron Vessel n?"

    "Is he famous?"

    "I have heard that he is only a fifth realm golden cultivator¡­"

    "He is an old man actually¡­haha¡­"

    "We will be afraid of the Iron Vessel n? Haha¡­."

    "Since this young maiden here is their young mistress, she may be a virgin¡­"

    "What a good harvest¡­"

    "She is also such a lovely maiden..."

    One of the three golden celestials said sternly to his men, "Seize them and take them all away to our citadel. Make sure you''re not followed and hide away all our tracks. Throw the dead bodies to the bottomless abyss below. As for the caravan, take and distribute it as your loot. After we have fun with these maidens, we will reward them to you."

    He turned to smile at the female cultivators, "You are all in luck today. We will be sparing the virgins because our First Citadel Lord needs them."

    The seventeen cultivators in the group were all delighted and they quickly shouted their thanks loudly.

    But as they were shouting loudly halfway, a cool voice was heard. "You''re not taking them anywhere."

    A handsome cultivator with golden eyes, armed with a precious sword in his left hand had suddenly appeared on top of the cliff. Behind him were two maidens with curtain veils, a nine-tail spirit fox and a Spirit Crane.

    The voice of this handsome cultivator had great rity. Although he had spoken softly but it rung loudly in everyone''s ears.

    When the female cultivators saw that it was a golden celestial that had just spoken, there was a sudden hope in their eyes as they gasped. "Great Celestial, please help us¡­"

    But of course their hopes were quickly killed off when they had suddenly remembered that he was only a lone golden celestial and that there were three golden celestials that were in front of them. Moreover the leader of this vicious group was also a sixth realm golden supremacy. That was not all. Even his followers were mostly third and fourth realm cultivators.

    Even if this handsome cultivator was a fifth realm golden celestial, he may have trouble fighting against so many fourth realm cultivators. The three golden celestials did not even need to move their little fingers and this hero would already be dead!

    Some of the female cultivators were actually pleading with this handsome cultivator. "Hero, please go! Please run and inform our n! Let the major orthodox ns know that it is the doings of the Evil Cultivation Pce! Avenge for us!"

    The three golden celestials were naturally displeased to see that their evil deeds had been bumped by someone and this someone actually had a flying mount next to him. They were actually on a ndestine mission to find some virgin maidens for their First Citadel Lord Yin Wei. Driven to desperation by their First Citadel Lord to find the virgins, they were forced to reveal themselves to the Iron Vessel n as they hunted the mountains for female cultivators.

    The handsome cultivator was of course Yuan Ji.

    Much to the delight of the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce, he had actually foolishly leapt down the cliff to be a hero.

    "Actually I don''t intend to kill the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce because of an old friend of mine." Yuan Ji said slowly to them.

    Many of the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce were allughing jovially.

    "Haha. Big talks!"

    "Is he trying to negotiate with us?"<sub> </sub>

    "No, he is trying to be a hero¡­haha¡­"

    "Soon he will be a dead hero!"

    "Since he doesn''t want to kill us then what does he want to do with us?"

    "This is so funny¡­"

    Yuan Ji said quietly, "I''m afraid that you have misunderstood me. At first I don''t want to kill anyone but after I had witnessed the carnage, I have now changed my mind."

    "Hahaha¡­"

    "He is so funny¡­"

    "Kill us?"

    "Is he capable?"

    "This is the funniest joke that I have ever witnessed in my entire life¡­"

    The leader of their group quickly said solemnly, "Be careful. He is dangerous. When he had descended from this steep cliff, he did not even use any profound animus to slow down his descent."

    The golden celestial that was next to him chuckled loudly, "Maybe it is because his lightless profound art is good and not because he is really dangerous¡­"

    This golden celestial did not even finish what he was saying as Yuan Ji''s sword had suddenly pierced through his throat. Or rather it was the afterimage of his sword.

    Immediately this golden celestial had stumbled backward and he had fallen onto the ground with his hand grasping his throat!

    As heid on the ground, he stammered out. "Help...me..."

    All the cultivators were stunned.

    Too fast.

    The golden celestial was almost killed by a sword energy attack that took the form of the handsome cultivator''s sword. If he was not a golden celestial then he would have been instantly killed on the spot!

    Was this the perfect sword energy form that they were witnessing?

    The perfect sword energy form is also called the physical sword energies form because it looks like the cultivator is throwing his sword but is actually consisted wholly of the condensation of sword energies.

    But this was really too fast for anyone to react!

    Usually when someone is using sword energies, the divine sense of their opponents will quickly pick up their profound energies signature. Therefore it is nearly impossible to surprise a high level cultivator with a sword energy attack!

    But when their divine sense had sensed the movement of this handsome cultivator''s sword, the sword energies had already been formed and moreover it was the perfect sword energy form!

    And the victim was actually a fifth realm golden celestial!

    How could a golden celestial fell so easily like he was only a first realm cultivator?

    The leader immediately shouted, "Attack! What are you all waiting for?"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had swung his sword three times as he released several deadly sword energies bursts and waves that strafed through the midst of these cultivators.

    When the sword energies had dissipated, all the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce were all dead except for the leader of the group and that was only because he had actually turned around to run!

    It was as though Yuan Ji was cutting tofu and moreover he had only used a precious sword that he had borrowed from Ling Feiyue.

    The leader had run with all his strength. In fact, he could not remember when was thest time that he had run so fast. He was thinking, "He must have expended all his profound strength to execute his profound attacks so he must be recharging his vital breath now. Although he is a sword energy cultivator but sword energies will weaken over a distance. With my golden celestial body and innate profound defenses, it is impossible for him to hurt me now that I have a head start over him..."

    But all of a sudden the afterimage of a sword had run through his body, killing him instantly.

    Yuan Ji had casually disyed the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon immediately after the leader had made a dash.

    All the jaws of the female cultivators dropped as they could not believe that a golden supremacy would actually die even without a single fight to show for.

    Moreover the recovery rate of this hero was too startling. How could anyone use four sword energies attack within a single vital breath and moreover he was not even panting for breath!

    This means that he had not reached his limit yet.

    Actually the first three sword energies attack were all low level sword energies attack that expended very little of Yuan Ji''s vital profound strength. The Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was more draining to him and was equivalent to using three of the earlier sword energies attack.

    The young mistress of the Iron Vessel n stammered weakly as she looked with great idiocy at Yuan Ji, "Great Celestial, I am Dong Feifei, the young mistress of the Iron Vessel n. Thank you for your great chivalry in aiding us. May we know the name of our great savior?"

    Before Yuan Ji could reply her, she shyly added. "I am also unmarried."

    Yuan Jiughed weakly before he grinned with an inspiration. "I am Sword Demon Ji Yuan."

    Dong Feifei and all the female cultivators were so startled that they stumbled backward¡­

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ...

 Chapter 134 The Secret Citadel Base (2)

    Days earlier;

    After Little Princess had found out that Zhao Songjin and Yin Wei had conspired against her, she had found a corner to cry her heart out.

    She was not weeping because of them but it was for Ji Yuan.

    "He must have viewed the memory stone by now and he must be thinking that I am a wanton woman¡­in his heart, he must be despising me¡­"

    Her eyes were woeful and were puffy red. "Ji Yuan, I know that you''re that Yuan Ji. You will rather have Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue than me¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping as she coughed out another mouthful of blood. Her internal injuries were not light at all.

    The reason why she had suddenly lost control of her internal energies regtions was because she had suddenly remembered that Yuan Ji had a duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Pce.

    "I¡­am¡­sorry¡­I really wish that I can intervene in that duel for you even if I''m may not be the match of the Divine Pce Master. Even¡­if you don''t love me¡­"

    "Didn''t you say that you will be with me till the end of times? Why did you break my heart¡­"

    "No, he has never promised me that. I am the foolish one that had said that¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, why can''t you understand my heart for you¡­"

    "Other than you, I have never dual cultivate with anyone else¡­"

    "He must really hate me so much. I did an unforgivable thing. I had caused him to break off with Saintess Yuluo and now she had even died in his hands¡­"

    Everyone was now saying that Ji Yuan was the one that had killed Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and that he had be the Sword Demon Ji Yuan.

    "I am the one that made you into a monster. I am really such a horrible person¡­if it isn''t for me, the two of you would have already been together by now¡­"

    Actually Little Princess was wrong on this. Jian Yuluo''s father, the Sect Master Jian Kang will never allow his daughter to marry Ji Yuan because he had a poor background. In his grand scheme of things, his daughter must marry someone from the seven major orthodox ns to strengthen the Profound Heaven Sword Manor. Even if Ji Yuan is a Sword Saint, he was not a seventh realm saint and the seven major orthodox ns had always looked down on the pure sword cultivators.

    Although Ji Yuan is a saint now, it will still never be able to change Sect Master Jian Kang opinion of him because he is as poor as a desert.

    "Ji Yuan¡­" Little Princess was mncholy. He was the first man that she had loved and still love. "I know that you are dead now. Rest assures that I will not let the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce off for killing you. If I don''t die after I have avenged you, I will definitely join you in thehends!"

    After she had made this silent promise in her heart, she had dried her tears and left this hateful citadel.

    After she had left the citadel, Yin Wei had also left for his other citadels.

    Before Yi Wei had left, he ordered everyone tob the mountains for any chaste maidens that they could find and to bring them back to the citadel.

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the present;

    Dong Feifei was now saying to Yuan Ji, "Great Celestial, when can I see you again? So that I can one day repay you for your sake."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "It is alright. This is really nothing at all."

    He had thought that after he had told Dong Feifei and her group that he was the Sword Demon Ji Yuan, they would be scared off by him. Rather, they were only surprised for just a little while before they were greeting him respectfully again.

    "Quickly go home. I will take care of the rest."

    "Will you like to visit our Iron Vessel n?" Bong Feifei asked quietly.

    "I still have something on." Yuan Ji replied her nonchntly.<sub> </sub>

    Dong Feifei had a reluctant look before she finally turned her back to leave. She was actually not the only one and several of the female cultivators were also looking at him with great reluctance as they left.

    After Bai Feifei and her group had left, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had leapt down from the cliff.

    "Look what have you done. You have just broken another maiden''s heart!" Ling Feiyue chuckled softly. "She is actually quite pretty. How can you let her go just like this?"

    Yuan Ji made a frown, "How is it possible for me to break her heart when we aren''t even together?"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "Our Brother Yuan Ji here is such a romantic cultivator. He''s sowing his seeds wherever he goes. Unfortunately for that Maiden Dong Feifei, she did not know that this fish needs plenty of resources to catch and is extremely slippery."

    "Yea. I really pity her." Ling Feiyue sighed softly. "She doesn''t even have a chance because she is also too weak to force our Brother Yuan Ji here to bemitted to her. Now that I have thought of this, Sister Jiajia is really so brilliant to force him to get bonded to our Sister Yan. Because we have Sister Yan to break his ice wall, we all have our chances now."

    Xue Qianxue nodded as she giggled lovingly, "If not, we will be like her and will be suffering from heartbreaks."

    "I betting that even our Sister Yan may not have an easier time with him even with Sister Jiajia''s help. He is probably struggling with his heart demons for many months whether to bed her or not. This I am very sure." Ling Feiyue added with a yful chuckle.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Can we talk about something else?" Yuan Ji muttered weakly.

    "Why did you tell them that you are the Demon Sword Ji Yuan? What did you promise Sister Jiajia? You''re not supposed to tell anyone that you are Ji Yuan. Have you forgotten about this already?" Xue Qianxue shot him a stern look.

    Ling Feiyue tapped him on his chest with her fingers, "Please exin yourself!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "Of course I am Yuan Ji now. The beardless Yuan Ji. With the current situation now, if I tell them that I am Yuan Ji then we won''t have any peace in the future. But what if I tell them that I''m the Sword Demon Ji Yuan? Then in the future they will all be looking for Ji Yuan and will never know that I am actually Pce Master Yuan Ji from the Emperor Hall Sect."

    "This¡­makes a little sense¡­" the two maidens began to mutter as they hesitated to ponder over his words.

    "Therefore I am going to cken Ji Yuan. Whatever Ji Yuan does, it is none of my business because I''m Yuan Ji now."

    Yuan Ji grinned at them. "Make sense? Therefore I am Sword Demon Ji Yuan now."

    Xue Qianxue muttered softly, "I got a feeling that we are going to be tricked by him¡­"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes, "But what he says actually makes sense."

    "Of course it makes sense." Yuan Ji chuckled. "Come, follow me!"

    "Where are we going?" the two maidens asked him.

    Yuan Ji said solemnly, "If I am not wrong then there is a secret citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce nearby. We are naturally going to track it down and free the innocents. There may be more captives."

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "With just the three of us? Are you sure?"

    "My daring Feiyue will actually be afraid?" Yuan Jiughed as he looked coolly at her.

    "Of course not! Let''s go then!"

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly, "The two of you are really too bold. This is not a good idea at all. Surely there will be quite a few saints around."

    She was suddenly sighing because Yuan Ji and Ling Feiyue had already walked off without her.

    Yuan Ji was actually rubbing his chin as he wondered if he would be able to locate Little Princess¡­

 Chapter 135 The Secret Citadel Base (3)

    Yuan Ji soon found the entrance of the secret citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce that was located deep in the mountains.

    The entrance was heavily guarded by more than ten cultivators and there was even a golden celestial among them.

    "How did you manage to find the base of the Evil Cultivation Pce so quickly?" Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were astonished.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly. "It is all due to luck."

    The two maidens rolled their eyes. It was obvious not true.

    Yuan Ji was actually very familiar with the secret markings of the Evil Cultivation Pce. After all, he had once been a prisoner of Little Princess and he had made many failed attempts to escape before he had finally seeded.

    Therefore it was not difficult for him to find the secret citadel quickly once he knows that there was a base of the Evil Cultivation Pce in the nearby mountain vicinity.

    He turned to say to Xiaobai, "Qianfeng, stay over here to watch over our Spirit Crane while we go and take a look inside. Don''t worry we will be alright."

    Bai Qianfeng disyed a light tremble before she nodded.

    Yuan Ji smiled as he gave her a pat on her head before he departed with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Bai Qianfeng was unusually quiet because she had been thinking about somethingtely and that was to surrender her body to Yuan Ji. She had made a quiet promise to give herself to him if he survived his duel.

    And he did.

    Even though his duel is not a life-threatening duel due to a special circumstance but an immortal promise is sacred to her soul sea. Therefore she had to keep her oath.

    She was extremely bashful when she had thought of it. I have to find an opportunity to be alone with him first¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When Yuan Ji had suddenly appeared into view to the cultivators that were guarding the entrance of the citadel, he had purposely suppressed his cultivation realm level by hiding his golden eyes with his mystic art.

    As for Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, they were donning their curtain veils to hide their faces.

    Yuan Ji had told them to pretend to be his prisoners and ask them to close their eyes if anyone were to check on them.

    After he had told them his ns, he approached the guards and showed them the token that he had looted from the dead cultivators earlier.

    The golden celestial at the entrance immediately said when he saw Yuan Ji. "Who are you? Howe I have never saw you before? And who are these two maidens?"

    Yuan Ji frowned unhappily, "Naturally they are my prisoners and I am bringing them inside to our First Citadel Lord."

    But the golden celestial and all the guards continued to stare at the two veiled maidens who were covered with a curtain veil.

    Although they could not see their faces and their bodies due to the long curtain veil that was like a cloak but they could still somehow tell that these two maidens had an extraordinary air and were emanating an enticing vibes that were spellbinding to them.

    Moreover these guards had been cultivating the dual cultivation profound art and they could feel that these two maidens were extremely juicy and were extremely good dual cultivation partners.

    This was something that Yuan Ji had not thought of since he was not familiar with any of the dual cultivation profound arts.

    The golden celestial looked beyond Yuan Ji as he smiled lecherously, "Our First Citadel Lord only needs maidens that are chaste. I wonder if these two maidens are still pure? If no, why don''t we have a little sharing and I can promise you that I will give you some benefits in the future."

    One of the guards shouted loudly, "Hey! Be smart and give our brother Celestial Huo some face!"

    Celestial Huo smiled coldly at Yuan Ji, "This brother here, what is your name?"

    Yuan Ji replied indifferently, "Li Yuan."

    "So Li Yuan, what do you think?" Celestial Huo grinned at him. "Take off their veils and let me have a look at them first."

    Yuan Ji immediately frowned, "These two are pure maidens so I don''t think you should touch them. Moreover, they are actually extremely ugly as well¡­"

    But the guards had already surrounded Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as theypletely ignored Yuan Ji.

    Before the guards could unveil the two maidens, these two maidens had already pulled their curtain veils against their shoulders to reveal their extraordinary beautiful features and their piercing golden eyes.

    When the guards saw their golden eyes, they were so startled that they were staggering backward but at the same time they were also mesmerized by the astonishing beauty of the two maidens.

    Before any of the guards could react, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had put them all down with their swords.

    Even Celestial Huo had no idea what had happened when he had died.

    All the nearby guards had be a happy ghost when they had died as they stared nkly at the two peerless beauties.

    The guards that were inside the entrance were so rmed that they were now shouting, "We have intruders! Sound the rm!"

    The alluring beauty of Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue when put together in the same ce were so captivating that none of the nearby guards had any sense of danger even though the two maidens had already unsheathed their swords.

    Yuan Ji was stunned when he saw how all these guards had fallen like useless trash. These guards are still thinking of banging my consorts even when swords have been drawn against them. This is too ridiculous. They have no sense of danger at all¡­

    He turned to smile bitterly at the two maidens, "Do you have to draw your swords? Can''t you act like my prisoners?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "We didn''t really kill them. They are just disabled and will be so for a long time. Why are you so jittering about? What do you expect us to do? They are trying to touch us and we''re only defending ourselves."

    Yuan Ji thought. They are obviously dead from your attacks¡­

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she winked at Yuan Ji, "That''s right. Do you want them to green you?"

    Xue Qianxue could not resist a chuckle after she had heard Ling Feiyue.

    They had naturally learnt from Bai Qianfeng what had happened in the Dream Trial.

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before muttering, "Because of what you have done, we have to double up on our actions now. You have now sounded the rm and we have lost the element of surprise¡­"

    All of a sudden the two maidens had purposely stepped on his foot as they walked past him as they said together. "Extremely ugly you say. Who''s the ugly one!"

    Yuan Ji blinked his eyes. Don''t tell me that they are mad because I call them extremely ugly? Hey, this is only a ruse. Why are they so petty about this? Their ego is seriously too high¡­

    As soon as Ling Feiyue had entered the entrance, she had immediately usurped the leadership position from Yuan Ji.<sub> </sub>

    Her beautiful and gentle voice soon filled the great halls of the secret citadel, "Get all your high ranking cultivators to see me immediately or don''t me me for razing your citadel to the ground."

    Her actionspletely stunned Yuan Ji who was trying to surprise the enemy and even Xue Qianxue was alsopletely taken by surprise.

    Although the rm had been raised but Ling Feiyue had raised the rm to another level by calling out loudly for the leaders.

    As they stormed through the citadel and into the great halls of the citadel, they soon found themselves surrounded by over a hundred golden celestials and at least a thousand cultivators.

    Yuan Ji immediately grumbled to Ling Feiyue, "Look what you have done. By rming everyone, we have now found ourselves in this current situation."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly and returned a nonchnt look.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Among the hundred over golden celestials, there were three seventh realm golden saints in their ranks and they were the citadel elders.

    All the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce were a little speechless when they saw that there were only three intruders and moreover two of the intruders were extremely peerless in their appearances; they were now causing all the male cultivators to look at them lecherously while the female cultivators were filled with envious looks.

    One of the citadel elders said immediately as soon as he had entered the great hall, "Spare the maidens and kill the man."

    Yuan Ji frowned unhappily, "Shouldn''t you ask who we are first?"

    The same citadel elder chuckled heartily, "No need. There is no need to know the name of a dead man."

    A female citadel elder and the only female among the three citadel elders immediately smiled, "No wait, I want the man. So who are you and what are your names?"

    Yuan Ji cleared his throat to say, "Ahem, I''m Sword¡­"

    But before he could finish, Ling Feiyue had said with her beautiful gentle voice. "I am the Demoness Ling Feiyue and I''vee to demolish your nest. Release all your prisoners and leave this ce or else I will put everyone to the sword!"

    As she spoke, she had also disyed her profound golden animus fiercely, pronouncing herself as a great saintess.

    Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Yuan Ji sighed with great exasperation. Do you think that they will be afraid of you? We need more tact not foolish bravery¡­

    Immediately the three citadel elders and many others had all taken a few steps backward.

    The three citadel elders were all stammering, "You''re¡­Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­the one that had dared to storm the Celestial Orthodox Sect¡­fight off the Seven Major Orthodox ns¡­"

    "Take all the prisoners¡­"

    "As long as Great Saintess Ling Feiyue is willing to spare us, we will abandon this citadel immediately¡­"

    "That''s right¡­"

    "Then the other two must be Xue Qianxue and Sword Demon Ji Yuan?"

    "I''ve heard that they are all Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue''s subordinates¡­"

    "We''re just puny saints. Hope that Dark Mistress Ling will spare us from our great rudeness¡­"

    "Even Sword Saintess Yuluo and the Great Saints of the two major orthodox ns are not able to kill them, what can we do to them?"

    The three citadel elders were all initial saints and one of them was a half-step initial saint. Therefore when up against a great saintess like Ling Feiyue, they felt that a little intimidating. Moreover it was not just one great saintess but two!

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue winked at Yuan Ji with an alluring smile, "See. Isn''t it easier this way?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji had never expected that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce would be cowards. After all if they were to all attack together, they do have a winning chance. The Evil Cultivation Pce had many profound treasures and even divine profound arts that could increase their profound strength drastically in battle to fight a top expert.

    Therefore he had taken into ount of theirbined fighting strength and decided that only by using tact would they seed in their undertaking to free the prisoners. With some luck, they may even seeded in killing off some of the top experts.

    He had never expected that the citadel elders would give in to Ling Feiyue''s demands so readily.

    Actually the three citadel elders know that they may stand a winning chance given their superior numbers. But they were really a little afraid of Ling Feiyue.

    Firstly, she is not an orthodox cultivator and is an unorthodox cultivator that is not averse to killing anyone. So she is not definitely not bluffing them.

    Secondly, she had a bold reputation at the Celestial Orthodox Sect where she fought off several top experts on her own that included the Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi and had even escaped unscathed. Even the many prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce were impressed by what she had done.

    Thirdly, Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue is the sect master of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and it is highly unlikely that she maye alone.

    The fourth and thest reason is the most important reason of all and is unspeakable; the three citadel elders are her secret fans after what she had done at the Celestial Orthodox Sect. So there.

    Although they will be facing a severe punishment from First Citadel Lord Yin Wei for abandoning the citadel but losing to Ling Feiyue is not a disgraceful thing at all.

    Many of the evil cultivators were now gasping among themselves, "It is really Ling Feiyue¡­so the other one must be Xue Qianxue¡­they are so beautiful...that man is also quite handsome¡­"

    Yuan Ji asked awkwardly as he looked at the evil cultivators, "Is Little Princess here?"

    The three citadel elders answered respectfully, "She had left this ce a couple of days ago."

    Yuan Ji was immediately excited, "Where did she go to?"

    "Erm, we really have no idea¡­"

    When Yuan Ji had heard them, he was secretly disappointed.

 Chapter 136 Freeing The Prisoners

    The Evil Cultivation Pce or rather the three Citadel Elders had actually kept their promises to release all the prisoners.

    In return Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue did not make things too difficult for them and allowed them to depart peacefully from the citadel.

    "Please send Sword Demon Ji Yuan regards to your First Citadel Lord Yin Wei!" Yuan Ji instructed the three Citadel Elders with a grin but secretly he was sighing; this Yin Wei is a great saint. He won''t be easy to handle. We are just lucky that he isn''t around or else it will be a disastrous for us.

    There were about fifty prisoners and the majority was women.

    As Yuan Ji led the prisoners away, his sharp ears picked up some mutterings from the departing evil cultivators.

    "So that is Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue¡­"

    "If only I can bang them¡­"

    "Yea, me too¡­"

    "I am always dreaming about them¡­"

    "They are more beautiful than I have thought¡­"

    "To think that they are really here¡­"

    As Yuan Ji watched the fluttering skirts of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue from their back, he felt like turning around to use his sword on the evil cultivators.

    How dare they think about banging my women behind my back!

    It took Yuan Ji plenty of restraint not to turn on them with his sword. In the end, he managed to triumph over his heart demons and walked away peacefully.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled when she saw that his face was extremely ugly, "Why is there a sword in your hand?"

    "Yes, why?" Ling Feiyue asked the same. She had only noticed that there was a sword that was in Yuan Ji''s hand after Xue Qianxue had turned around to ask him.

    Yuan Ji replied sheepishly, "It always pays to be a little more careful."

    All of a sudden a petitedy cultivator had quietly approached Yuan Ji before lowering her head to say, "I''ve heard that you are looking for Little Princess?"

    "You are?" Yuan Ji asked her curiously. She did not have any golden eyes therefore it was likely that she was below the fifth realm level. Unless of course, she could hide her golden eyes like Yuan Ji.

    "Nangong Xiu." She answered quietly. "May I know why you are looking for Little Princess and who are you?"

    When Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue saw that there was a pretty maiden that had approached Yuan Ji all of a sudden, they muttered a few humming sounds.

    This Nangong Xiu had a stimting attractiveness to her and she was wearing a low cut silken bodice, revealing herscivious figure.

    It was no wonder why Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were watching them with an unhappy look. Unlike Dong Feifei, they just did not like this Nangong Xiu at all.

    Yuan Ji secretly smiled when he saw their expressions. Now it is my turn to make the two of you jealous of me.

    So heughed in a friendly manner to Nangong Xiu, "I am the Sword Demon Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden Nangong Xiu gasped softly, "You are Ji Yuan?"

    "That''s right. You know me?" Yuan Ji asked curiously.

    Nangong Xiu nodded slowly, "I''m actually an evil cultivator. I''m from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Yuan Ji was startled, "Then why are you a prisoner?"

    Nangong Xiu replied, "I''m Little Princess'' follower and I''m from her citadels. When our citadels are raided by the orthodox major ns, some of us had fled here to take refuge."

    All of a sudden her eyes were woeful as she pulled down her short skirt before adding. "But instead of treating us as one of them, they imprisoned all of us for their depraved uses."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "You are all prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Why did they treat you this way?" Yuan Ji sighed heavily.

    "My citadel mistress isn''t on the best of terms with her brothers. Maybe that is why." She was answering ruefully and there was a sense of betrayal in her eyes.

    But she quicklyposed her sorrows to say, "When they had released us, some of the guards said to us that today is our lucky day and they will be releasing us to rejoin our citadel mistress. It seems that a group of cultivators have suddenly arrived at the citadel and are forcing them to release all the prisoners. Then I had secretly overheard them discussing that there is a man in the group who is looking for Little Princess. That is why I have approached you."

    Yuan Ji muttered nervously, "Then can you take me to Little Princess?"

    Nangong Xiu averted her eyes, "You are all powerful cultivators. If I bring you to Little Princess then won''t I be endangering her instead?"<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Jiughed, "We won''t. We''re friends."

    Nangong Xiu looked at him with suspicion, "I''m sure that you are not friends. My citadel mistress often curses you loudly and wishes that you were never born."

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "That is Little Princess alright."

    But he said solemnly, "If you can bring me to Little Princess, I can promise that we won''t harm her. I erm¡­just want to talk to her for a while."

    Then he was trembling as he clenched his fists tightly, "I just want to say sorry to her over something that I had done to her in the past."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ???

    What did Yuan Ji do to her in the past?

    Nangong Xiu was startled as she stared at Yuan Ji for a while.

    Finally she heaved a soft sigh, "You don''t look like you are lying. I don''t know if I should believe you or not. But I will trust you this once. I hope that you are not lying to me. But I have to make it clear first, there is no promise that I can find her whereabouts."

    Yuan Ji was delighted as he returned a heartyugh, "Thank you so much!"

    Nangong Xiu sighed heavily, "But don''t me me either if my citadel mistress decides to attack you. After all, she doesn''t seem to like you very much."

    Yuan Ji replied weakly, "Yes I know, she doesn''t have a good impression of me."

    Then he grinned, "Maiden Nangong Xiu. If you have no other ce to go after this, why don''t youe to my Orthodox Sword Sect?"

    Nangong Xiu was startled as she stared nkly at him, "Why do you want to recruit me for? I am an evil cultivator and I don''t have a good past."

    "I''m not interested in your past. You are a sword energy cultivator, am I right? You can be my core prot¨¦g¨¦." Yuan Ji said solemnly.

    "I can be a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan?" Nangong Xiu was really startled. "But I''m not a strong cultivator and I''m only a fourth realm cultivator..."

    All of a sudden she was interrupted by Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as they pulled Yuan Ji to one side.

    They were now furiously arguing with him.

    "Remember that you are not the sect master of the Orthodox Sword n anymore."

    "Why are you taking a core prot¨¦g¨¦?"

    "Are you so free?"

    "Are you keeping her for your harem pce?"

    "There are so many sword energy cultivators around, why are you picking her as your core prot¨¦g¨¦?"

    "Just because she has a sexy figure?"

    "Why didn''t you ask for our approval first?"

    Nangong Xiu lowered her head as she said quietly, "Please rest assured that I have no intention of joining any other sects. As long as I live, I will never abandon my citadel mistress."

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Don''t worry. If you change your mind in the future, let me know anytime. There is no need to hesitate about it. Just treat it as my favor for you for helping me to search for Little Princess. Whether we can find her or not, this offer will always stand."

    Nangong Xiu was trembling lightly. His words were like a powerful injection into her soul.

    Yuan Ji returned a heavy sigh, "Little Princess, she is someone who is very important in my heart."

    Nangong Xiu returned a perplexed look at him. Everyone knows that Little Princess hates him. Doesn''t he know about it?

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were quietly gasping. Did he just say that Little Princess is very important in his heart to him?

    Xue Qianxue was suddenly saying to Ling Feiyue, "I''m suddenly curious what Little Princess looks like."

    "Me too." Ling Feiyue was suddenly muttering. "There are few cultivators that have actually seen what she looks like. Even if they see her, they may not even know that she is Little Princess."

    Little Princess was actually at the Sacred Maiden Ceremony the other day but she was not recognized by anyone. Moreover she was also wearing a veil. But Yuan Ji had recognized her nevertheless because of her alluring vixen eyes that were unique to her.

    Nangong Xiu had heard them discussing the appearance of Little Princess so she said quietly, "She is really a stunning saintess. You will never forget her looks once you have seen her."

    Yuan Ji was thinking. Yea, she is really stunning and moreover she has an unforgettable bewitching vixen look. Her figure is also extremely enticing and she fills me with lust whenever I see her¡­

 Chapter 137 Youâ€™re My Princess

    A stunning maiden with a bewitching look was now forced to a corner in the mountain wilderness. Around her, thest of her followers had all been killed.

    This stunning maiden is actually Little Princess.

    She was staring in disbelief at the dozens of cultivators that were now surrounding her; her attackers were not from the orthodox cultivators but were all from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    "Do you know who I am? I am your Third Citadel Mistress!"

    Little Princess stared at them with great exasperation before scowling, "Long Bushi! You''re out of your ce!"

    Long Bushiughed, "We only take orders from our First Citadel Lord Yin Wei, not you."

    He was actually one of the three citadel elders that Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had spared a few days earlier.

    Little Princess hummed coldly as she swung her divine sword, "My father the Evil Cultivation Master will grind you to mincemeat if you even dare to dream ofying your fingers on me!"

    Long Bushiughed along with the rest, "Are you still in delusion? Your father the Evil Cultivation Master no longer favors you anymore! Moreover after we do you here, we will be careful to cover our tracks."

    The dozens of cultivators were allughing heartily and their eyes were looking lecherous at Little Princess. It was as though they could already imagined her naked in front of them and was theirs for the taking.

    Long Bushi smirked coldly, "Little Princess, your profound strength is so weak now that you have to use your sword to defend against us? You rarely use your sword unless you are fighting against the deste beasts. If you are smart enough, quickly surrender and we make sure that you have a painless time and even a pleasurable time. However, make your decision quickly for we are an impatient lot."

    They all knew that Little Princess was injured because many in the citadel saw her coughing blood several times. That was why they were so bold.

    In fact, they actually know that Little Princess had setup her camp nearby to gather the remnants of her scattered followers. It was just that they had lied to Ji Yuan. There was no need to tell the enemy more information than necessary.

    "Oh yes. There is a handsome cultivator that is looking for you some days ago. He says his name is Ji Yuan and it seems that he is looking for you." Long Bushi chuckled.

    Little Princess was startled and she was trembling. Why is he looking for me?

    She could not resist asking, "What does he wants?"

    Long Bushiughed, "Of course he is here to kill you! He says he is going to tie you up to bang you. When he saw that you are not around, he quickly escaped. If he was not that quick, we would have ughtered him for you. Unfortunately, he was pretty fast."

    Little Princess suddenly coughed out a mouthful of golden blood. As she staggered backward, her vision had be a blur. He still hates me so much¡­

    Long Bushi suddenly shouted to his group, "Seize her now!"

    All the cultivators were now moving toward Little Princess with great anticipation as evidenced by their lecherous eyes¡­

    But all of a sudden there was a suffocating suppression high above them and everyone was trembling uncontrobly with a dreadful fear that they could not shake off.

    <o>,m "What is going on?"</o>

    "Up there!"

    "What is it?"

    "It is a bird?"

    "No, it is¡­"

    The full profound power of a celestial sword had just been unsheathed high above them and there was a heavy killing intent that was sweeping through to everyone, paralyzing everyone with great fear.

    When Yuan Ji hadnded in their midst, the ground around him exploded furiously with his sword energies, causing many of the evil cultivators to yell aloud in great agony as the sword energies flew into their bodies.

    Before any of the evil cultivators could react, Yuan Ji had swung his celestial sword with his right hand and several arcing sword energies flew in all directions, exploding the ground around him with another round of furious outburst of sword energies, only this time round it were much more furious and was packed with even greater profound power.

    Long Bushi had barely pointed his precious sword at this intruder to mutter out ''Ji Yuan'' before he was torn to pieces by the furious sword energies.

    Little Princess waspletely startled to see Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared and he would actually be so formidable. Moreover he even had a celestial sword that was in his hand. When had he be this rich or lucky?!

    But she also had a look of fear in her eyes when she recalled what Long Bushi had told her; Ji Yuan had the intention to tie her up to bang her.

    Immediately after Ji Yuan had killed all the evil cultivators, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Nangong Xiu had also appeared.

    They were quite shocked to see that Yuan Ji had killed all the evil cultivators with such power. In fact, they had never thought that Yuan Ji was capable of enhancing his sword energies to this powerful extend that dozens of cultivators, including a saint had just died like this.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were secretly thinking. So this is his hidden trump card? He has never used his full strength when fighting against us?

    When Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue saw Little Princess, they were gasping secretly.

    It is because Nangong Xiu is right. Little Princess is really a stunning maiden and they cannot even count the many affectionate expressions that are radiating from her face; she is really too bewitching and different people will see a different expression from her. She can fill men with lusts and they will also want to dominate over her.

    As for Bai Qianfeng, she was not surprised because this was the second time that she had met Little Princess. The first time was when she was outside the Amber Frost City.

    Little Princess had a look of resignation on her countenance. In her current weaken state, it is all too easy for Yuan Ji to kill her.

    When she had saw the profound power that was disyed by Yuan Ji, it was as though he was warning her that he was now very strong and he would now be able to avenge against her all his humiliations over the years.

    She was now leaning against the cliff for support and her sword arm was now trembling. She was really too weak now to resist and moreover she did not have the heart to fight him even if he really wants to kill her.

    In the past she was always intimidating him because she did not know how to express her inner emotions and she had enjoyed tormenting him. Ji Yuan was weaker than her and she felt that she could do whatever she wanted with him. But now, the tables hadpletely been turned.

    Now Ji Yuan now had a good opportunity to take away her life and he would not give up this rare opportunity to do so.

    Yuan had just killed the evil cultivators that were bullying his Little Princess and he had now turned to look at her.

    His heart was now beating very fast when he was looking at her. Little Princess...

    He was inhaling hard now. Little Princess. I have finally found you at longst. How are you? I hope that you are doing fine. You still look the same as ever but s, I have lost my beautiful long beard¡­

    As Little Princess and Yuan Ji looked at each other, there was a quick shback in their eyes¡­

    When Yuan Ji was Little Princess'' prisoner, she would dual cultivate with him several times a day. It was not because Little Princess was using him as her dual cultivation melting cauldron. In fact, she had never drained him of his vital profound strength to enhance hers.

    When they were dual cultivating with each other, she was already a saintess and he was but a lowly fourth realm cultivator. She did not need his puny vital profound strength at all.

    But Yuan Ji had misunderstood because he was covered with horrible heavy injuries and he had even broken his ribs. At the same time, it was due to the fact that Little Princess had often mishandled him and this caused his internal and external injuries to worsen.

    Due to his heavy injuries, his profound energies flow was affected and this caused him to believe that he was her melting cauldron.

    Moreover Little Princess had wanted to dual cultivate with him several times a day and this reinforces his beliefs that he was her melting cauldron.<sub> </sub>

    The reasons why Little Princess did not spare him from their dual cultivation were because Little Princess was curious about the dual cultivation between men and women for a long time. Coming from the Evil Cultivation Pce did not help to restrain her curiosity at all.

    As a matter of fact, she was extremely curious about it as she was constantly surrounded by the dual cultivators who would often talked about it openly in the day and performing the deed when it was dark. This did not also help by the fact that she had never tried it before.

    So when they had developed a rtionship together, this opened a floodgate of curiosity for Little Princess and she began to use him as her dual cultivation partner to try the various dual cultivation techniques of the Evil Cultivation Pce all day long.

    Naturally Yuan Ji was unable to keep up with her because he was beaten up quite badly by Little Princess before they had even start to dual cultivate with each other. To make matters worse, Yuan Ji had tried to escape several times and each time when Little Princess had caught him escaping, she was never polite with him and had beaten him up to a worse shape than ever before.

    Now the two of them were looking at each other and both were trembling with various emotions from their past¡­

    Finally Little Princess broke the silence, "You¡­have be so strong now. I have to admit that I can''t escape today."

    She lifted up her sword with her trembling hands. "But there is no need to trouble you. I shall take my own life to preserve myst dignity¡­"

    In your eyes, I am just a wanton woman¡­I deserve a most humiliating death¡­

    "Little Princess¡­" Yuan Ji had suddenly taken out the memory stone with trembling fingers. "I had viewed the memory stone. I am¡­really so sorry¡­please forgive me¡­all along I''ve thought that you''re at fault but it is actually mine¡­"

    He added with trembling lips, "I want to be with you forever. Will you like to be with me too? Can you?"

    Little Princess was stunned. Why did he want to be with an evil cultivator like me? This¡­must be¡­a ruse¡­

    "I know that you may not believe me now but I am really serious about it." Yuan Ji firmly said.

    Little Princess hummed softly, "You don''t know how bad I am. How many bad deeds that I had ever done and how many cultivators that I had killed. I am the evil cultivator that everyone has always despises. Do not use your puny ploy to trick me and to humiliate me."

    Yuan Ji sighed heavily, "That is not a problem with me. I''m now the Sword Demon Yuan Ji."

    Little Princess smiled coldly, "Let me tell you the truth alright? I had sowed the divide that was between you and Saintess Yuluo, causing the two of you to break off. I also did many unforgivable things to you like auctioning your portrait to make you a mockery in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I am not so foolish to think that you will forgive me. I should be the one begging you for your forgiveness and not the other way round!"

    All of a sudden Yuan Ji had shed forward to knock her sword aside as he hugged her tightly. He said to her with the same words that he had said to her in the Dream Trial. "I know that we have a big misunderstanding in the past and I have often quarreled with you. It isn''t because I have despised you because of your background. On the contrary, I am quite ashamed of myself because I hate myself for unable to tell you that I have actually like you."

    He improved it a little by adding, "I know you only did all these because you love me. As long as we are together, we can always talk things over. We have so many missed chances together. Do you really want us to be separated?"

    Little Princess stammered, "You¡­are¡­serious?"

    Yuan Ji held her even tightly, "I am serious. Little Princess, I really like you. It has always been buried deep inside my heart."

    "But I had caused you and Saintess Yuluo¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her with a woeful sigh, "Yuluo is now my beloved consort Yuxian. If she is alive, she will want us to be together as well."

    "She what? She is your consort? But everyone is saying that you had killed her." Little Princess was startled.

    Little Princess was confused by Yuan Ji and yet she could not bear to pull herself off from him. What if this was just a trick to humiliate her?

    "No, I can''t be with you¡­because¡­"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly kissing her gently on her soft lips as he muttered, "Say no more. It is all in the past¡­"

    After kissing for a few rounds, her defenses were broken and they were suddenly exploring with their tongues.

    Yuan Ji''s hands were fondling her back and her soft butt.

    Finally he lifted her up in his strong arms as he said gently, "Little Princess, from today onward you will be my beloved consort."

    Little Princess gasped softly, "I am¡­your beloved consort?!"

    Then she lowered her head deep in his chest and she was weeping emotionally, "Ji Yuan! You little scoundrel! Don''t you dare to lie to me or you will wish that you were never be born!"

    At the same time she was thinking. This¡­is¡­too good to be true?

    Then she added with more heart breaking tears as she trembled uncontrobly, "Promise me that you will be with me till the end of times¡­"

    "Little Scoundrel and Little Princess, we are sopatible." Yuan Ji chuckled.

    Then he began to solemnly say. "Little Princess, I promise you that I will be with you till the end of times. I swear by the Great God Pangu for this oath!"

    Yuan Ji held her even tighter and he was looking at her with his gentle eyes.

    Then he whispered gently in her ears. "Come to think of this, I''ve known you for so many centuries now but I have ever known your real name. Will my beloved consort shares with me your name?"

    "Yin Lingyun. Ling as the Spirit and Yun as the Cloud."

    "What a beautiful name¡­" Yuan Ji said dreamily to her. "My dear Yin Lingyun¡­"

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were gasping softly when they had heard Yuan Ji. They were both thinking of the same thing. Howe Yuan Ji had never said such sweet words to them before? They were really envious!

    Xiang Li who was watching them was now putting her fingers into her mouth as she crackled to Yuan Ji, "So when are you going to bed your new consort?"

    Bai Qianfeng already knows that Little Princess had a ce in Yuan Ji heart while they were in the Dream Trial. Therefore she was smiling while giving them her blessings.

    Nangong Xiu was stunned. She had thought that her citadel mistress had hated Ji Yuan a lot because she was always cursing him every now and then for several hundred years. But she had never thought that they would have this kind of a rtionship together.

    Yuan Ji felt that the dark blemish in his soul sea had suddenly been lifted. He felt light and his spirit was soaring high.

    All of a sudden he was startled that his surroundings were glowing with thousands of floating soft lights from the spiritual auras that was in the vicinity.

    Little Princess, Xue Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue were all startled as they gasped. "He is entering into the great saint level now¡­"

    When Yuan Ji felt that his dark blemish had been lifted, the spiritual sea that was in his soul sea was suddenly expanding rapidly and this caused his spiritual boundaries to expand.

    Xue Qianxue was gasping, "This is a natural breakthrough so there won''t be any negative oue. As a matter of fact, he may advance to the upper seventh realm mortal-step level without affecting his vital profound energies in his soul sea."

    When the spiritual boundaries are expanding, the spiritual sea in the cultivator''s soul sea will be consumed to expand the spiritual boundaries. When that happens, the vital profound energies in the original spiritual sea will be lost. But in this case, Yuan Ji is directly absorbing the spiritual force in the vicinity to rece his spiritual sea hence protecting his vital profound energies.

    Even Ling Feiyue was astonished, "What did you do? Come on, teach us!"

    Yuan Ji immediately said sheepishly, "I can''t remember doing anything! Don''t look at me like this! Maybe it is because my soul is too pure and that is why the heaven is touched by me?"

    All the maidens immediately rolled their eyes and they had some difficulty trying to suppress theughter that was in their hearts.

 Chapter 138 Great Saint Yuan Ji

    When Yuan Ji opened his eyes again, he hadpleted his breakthrough to the upper seventh realm sacred saint level.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess had all taken out their scented handkerchiefs to wipe away his sweat as they asked at the same time. "How is it? Is your breakthrough smooth? What is your cultivation realm now?"

    He looked up to the three maidens with a weak smile, "Thank you for keeping a watch over me. I must say that this reallyes at a most unlikely timing."

    Then he was soon grinning, "I am at the upper seventh realm earth-step now."

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess: ¡­

    They could not believe what they were actually hearing.

    Earth-step!

    Did he just skip three steps?

    Half-step, mortal-step, earth-step. Yes, that is right. That is three steps!

    All the maidens were staring at him with disbelief.

    They had expected him to attain to the mortal-step but not the earth-step. It is because every cultivation step at the seventh realm sacred saint level is harder to breakthrough than the lower realms. It is especially so for the upper sacred saint level.

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "You are the same as me now¡­"

    "You are a step higher than me¡­" Xue Qianxue gasped softly.

    Little Princess gasped, "You are only a step lower than me¡­"

    Among the three maidens, Little Princess actually had the highest attainment. She is a great saintess of the upper heaven-step sacred saint level.

    All the maidens were suddenly cautioning him, "You mustn''t cultivate anymore. You have advanced too fast for your own good. You ought to consolidate your weak spiritual sea first. You need to slow down or there may be unforeseeable consequences ¡­"

    Actually they were all saying all these to him not because they were concerned about him but they were now afraid that Yuan Ji could overtake them. Secretly, they actually preferred to keep him weaker than him so that they could have better reins over him.

    But at the same time they were truly astonished. It was because Yuan Ji had taken less than a year to reach the upper seventh realm level after he had just broken through to the seventh realm level.

    This speed was too fast that it had never happened in the history of the Deste Celestial Fraternity before!

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chins, "Yes, you are all right. Even though I have no negative impact from this breakthrough, my true profound strength is still at the peak middle sacred saint level. I do need to cultivate before I can use the profound strength of the earth-step upper sacred saint level."

    Then he smiled to them, "There is still a little window before my soul sea cannot absorb the spiritual forces from the high grade spirit stones. Do you all have some to spare for me? With your high grade spirit stones, I can quickly replenish my spiritual sea¡­"

    "No, we don''t have¡­"

    "Don''t use it. It may be risky for you¡­"

    "You ought to cultivate first to consolidate your foundation first¡­"

    "I don''t think you ought to use the high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "You may have some bacsh from using the high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "We need to save the high grade spirit stones from now on¡­"

    "We are now low on supplies now¡­"

    "Especially that there is a forting battle soon¡­"

    "Let''s think whether it is alright for you to use it¡­"

    "We can''t afford to risk the life of our lord here¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you''re not a power cultivator. You need to be at your peak¡­"

    "Better be safe than sorry¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    In the end the maidens had spared him a few dozen high grade spirit stones at thest minute. On the surface, it appeared that they were willing to give him the high grade spirit stones but they had actually taken some time to finish their debate. Therefore Yuan Ji could only use that a few dozen spirit stones before the spiritual boundaries of his soul sea had solidified and he could no longer absorb the spiritual auras in the high grade spirit stones.

    Nangong Xiu who was watching nearby rolled her eyes because it was obvious to her that these three maidens were trying to keep him weaker than them.<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly because he had remembered that they had thousands of high grade spirit stones after they had visited an auction house.

    But somehow he sensed something was not right so he decided to keep his mouth shut for the time being. Why are they acting so strangely?

    Instead he turned to Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue to say. "Let me make an introduction for everyone first."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "No need! While you were cultivating, we had already been acquainted with one another." Then she began to hold Little Princess'' hands. "From this day onward, Sister Yin is one of us."

    Ling Feiyue smiled alluring, "That is right. We will treat Sister Yin as one of us."

    Little Princess lowered her head to say shyly, "My new sisters had also given me plenty of profound pills to treat my injuries."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "We had actually found it in a cave."

    Xue Qianxue pulled Little Princess to her beforeughing softly, "Come sister, we are going to tell you a secret. Xiaobai,e with us!"

    Little Princess nodded and said to Nangong Xiu, "Please wait here."

    Yuan Ji knew that they were going to tell Little Princess about Bai Qianfeng.

    As Nangong Xiu was with them, they did not feel it was the right time to tell her about Bai Qianfeng. Now that Yuan Ji hadpleted his breakthrough, they were going to a corner to tell her. After all, Little Princess was one of them now.

    "Weird. Howe they seem to be getting along so well?" Yuan Ji muttered to himself with a perplexed look. He had actually been thinking how he was going to introduce Little Princess to Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    Judging by their obvious dislike for Nangong Xiu earlier, he was expecting them to react the same manner for Little Princess. But all of a sudden he had noticed that they were not cold to Nangong Xiu anymore and was even acting very amicable toward Little Princess.

    "Very weird indeed. I thought that the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators have a burning dislike for the evil cultivators? Why are they so friendly all of a sudden?"

    He did not know that Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue could tell that he seemed to love Little Princess a lot and they knew that this was something that they could not prevent. Therefore there was no point trying to keep Little Princess out of their midst.

    Also Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue did not care if Little Princess was an evil cultivator or not. But she was an injured great saintess and they were smart enough to know that if they could be friends then they would not be so disadvantage in the future. After all, no one wants to make an enemy out of a great saintess like Little Princess.

    Moreover Little Princess had such a seductive look that they were a little anxious that they may lose favor with Yuan Ji.

    At the same time they had also changed their attitude toward Nangong Xiu since she was Little Princess'' follower plus she was not a true threat to them.

    -

    -

    -

    Bai Qianfeng had assumed her true appearance now, shifting from a nine-tail spirit fox to a peerless maiden with an imposing presence.

    When Little Princess saw Bai Qianfeng for the very first time, she waspletely stunned. She would never have suspected that the nine-tail spirit fox was able to transform into such an astonishing peerless maiden.

    "Sacred saint level¡­" Little Princess gasped after she had gauged Bai Qianfeng''s profound animus.

    "This is our Sister Bai Qianfeng! She is also an immortal cultivator!" Xue Qianfeng announced proudly.

    Little Princess was even more startled, "She is an immortal cultivator? Why is an immortal cultivator doing in the Celestial Realm and not in the Immortal Realm?"

    However Little Princess was not wrong. Immortal Cultivators do not have a ce in the Celestial Realm.

    "I was cast down from the Immortal Realm in an engulfing battle and I had suffered a grievous injury that had almost ended my existence." Bai Qianfeng said matter of fact. "That is why I have ended up here."

    Little Princess nodded before she said quietly, "I had also heard that immortal cultivators are not able to stay in the Celestial Realm for an extended period."

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes before she nodded quietly, "Some powerful immortal cultivators are able to stay longer than the others. Please do not tell Yuan Ji about this."

    Ever since she had lost her celestial sword, she had also lost her anchor to remain in the Celestial Realm. Every time that she had used her profound power beyond the seventh realm, the time that she will have in the Celestial Realm will also be shortened.

    Actually there was another anchor that could bind her to the Celestial Realm and that was the ve cor. However Yuan Ji had since removed it.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were quite startled that Bai Qianfeng will not be able to remain with them for long. They actually have many questions about the Immortal Realm to ask her but she is always quiet about it.

    "Is there a way for you to remain longer in the Celestial Realm?" Xue Qianxue was curiously asking her.

    "How long can you remain with us?" Ling Feiyue muttered uneasily. She hade to like Bai Qianfeng and was saddened that she may not be able to stay for long in the Celestial Realm.

    But Bai Qianfeng did not answer them and she merely smiled. "It is so good to know the three of you. I hope that I may be able to see you in the Immortal Realm in the future."

    If given a choice, she would not want to leave the Celestial Realm. It was because she had grown attached to Yuan Ji now. Moreover she did not have a home in the Immortal Realm. She is the enemy of the Righteous Immortals and a traitor to her kind.

 Chapter 139 Little Princess, Well Be Together

    It was night and the night breeze was cool.

    Yuan Ji and Little Princess were now sitting on top of a cliff rock as they overlooked the surrounding mountains. It was just them alone as the other maidens had left them alone to chat for the night.

    Yuan Ji put his hand on Little Princess'' back as he asked gently, "Little Princess, how are your injuries. Are you much better now?"

    Little Princess nodded before she turned to smile at him, "I''m alright. Thank you."

    "Where have you been all this while? And how did you get into this state?" Yuan Ji asked her curiously.

    "I got into a fight with the cultivation experts of the seven major orthodox ns." Little Princess sighed softly. "And then I was captured by them."

    Yuan Ji asked awkwardly, "You were captured by Saintess Fang Zhenfei?"

    Little Princess looked a little startled, "How did you know about this?"

    "I had met Saintess Fang Zhenfei and she had told me." He replied weakly.

    Little Princess looked a little perplexed, "Saintess Fang is an extremely aloof person. She will talk to you?"

    Yuan Jiughed weakly, "We are old acquaintances. Haha."

    Little Princess looked at him curiously, "How did you know her?"

    Yuan Ji looked a little sheepish before he answered, "We are drinking friends. Haha. I had met her in a drinking session."

    "You didn''t happen to bed her when you were drunk, right?" Little Princess stared at him nkly.

    "Of course not. We are extremely pure. Haha." Yuan Ji quicklyughed awkwardly.

    Little Princess inhaled deeply before she lowered her eyes to say, "You ought to be wary of her. She is extremely smart and dangerous. It is best that you keep a distance from her. I was baited by her and was captured by her."

    Yuan Jiughed softly, "Don''t worry. The one that can bait me has not been born yet. Haha."

    In Yuan Ji''s soul sea, Xiang Li was sticking her tongue out. "You are always getting baited!"

    "How did you manage to be here? I mean, how did you manage to survive your duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Pce? Can you share with me? I am really curious about it." Little Princess blinked her mesmerizing eyes as she asked curiously.

    Yuan Ji was secretly awkward. It is not the time to tell Little Princess that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is also the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Little Princess gasped all of a sudden, "Don''t tell me that you have killed the Divine Pce Master?"

    Yuan Ji looked a little sheepish as he rolled his eyes to think before he coughed out with ast minute exnation. "We are fighting from day to night. Naturally he had an advantage over me. Just when I thought that I was about to lose, he had identally stepped on a dung. Therefore he felt pretty disgusted about it and this spoilt his mood for the duel so he suggested that we postpone our duel to ater date. Naturally as a gentleman of the sword, I didn''t want to take advantage of my opponent therefore I agree to postpone our duel."

    I can''t say I had lost to the Divine Pce Master in front of Little Princess or it will be such a loss of face for me.

    Little Princess nodded before she analyzed, "It seems that this Divine Pce Master has a fetish for cleanliness."

    Then she pped her hands with a smile, "We can make use of this weakness of his to defeat him the next time round!"

    Little Princess was pretty serious about the ns therefore Yuan Ji could only pretended to agree. "Yea, that is a good n. Why didn''t I think of this? Haha."

    "Next time cover yourself in dung before you dueled with him. This will give you a clear advantage." Little Princess suggested with a wink in her eyes.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Are you serious?" Yuan Ji asked weakly.

    "Then can you tell a better lie?" Little Princess was suddenly looking at him coldly.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    How did she know that I am lying to her?<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess said quietly, "You seem to know Saintess Fang Zhenfei pretty well. Do you know that when I was captured by her, I thought that I may die under her hands. Therefore I ask her if I can see you for thest time. She seems to know where you are."

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply, "You mean at that time when you were outside Amber Frost City, you were already captured by her?"

    Little Princess nodded quietly. "And that was why I had handed over the memory stone to you."

    Then she looked at him mncholy, "Ji Yuan, are we really fated to be together? Why are you lying to me? Am I not your woman already?"

    Yuan Ji inhaled deeply before he said quietly, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei is my woman as well."

    Little Princess gasped with shock. "You have taken her¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted her weakly, "Not yet. I have a hundred year old pledge with her. She is actually Xia Jiaqing, one of the four great beauties."

    "You mean she is taking the alias of Xia Jiaqing all this while¡­" Little Princess was clearly surprised by this revtion.

    "And her godfather is the Divine Pce Master. At that time she had pleaded with the Divine Pce Master to let me off." Yuan Ji said with great solemnness.

    Little Princess was further startled. She pondered for a while before sighing heavily. "To be the godfather of the Divine Pce Master means that she may have already lost her chastity to him. Now I really pity her."

    Yuan Ji tried his best to resist a chuckle, "Yes, she is really very pitiful."

    Then he said with great solemnness to Little Princess, "Now that I have told you this secret, you must promise me not to tell anyone. This includes Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue."

    Little Princess gasped, "You mean that you have never told them?"

    Yuan Ji shook his head, "I have to protect Saintess Fang''s reputation. I hope that you will do the same."

    He was silently thinking. Jiajia, please forgive me. This is the only way that I can protect your secret.

    Little Princess averted her eyes as she nodded, "Alright. From this day onward, I will follow you. If I am constantly with you then you can monitor me all the time and know that this secret will be safe."

    Yuan Ji was delighted as he gripped her shoulders, "So you are really willing to be with me now?"

    Little Princess nodded shyly, "This is actually what I want to say to you. I have already lost everything that I have at the Evil Cultivation Pce. My only wish now is to kill Zhao Songjin to avenge the deaths of my followers."

    Then she added slowly, "And my brother Yin Wei."

    Yuan Ji suddenly said, "Let me take care of him for you. I don''t want you to fight against your sibling."

    Little Princess smiled weakly, "Ji Yuan, I know that you are very strong now and even have a celestial sword but you''re definitely not my brother''s match. He is a power cultivator of the Great Saint level while you are not."

    Yuan Ji sighed, "Why is it that everyone seems to look down on the sword cultivators?"

    Little Princess leaned her head against his chest as she said mncholy, "My father and my two brothers, they are all formidable great saints. It is best that you don''t make an enemy out of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Yuan Jiughed, "But I already have. Your brother Yin Wei will probably be hopping mad that I have attacked his base while he is not around. It seems that my luck is so good."

    Little Princess rubbed her head against his chest before she looked up woefully. "Your luck is indeed good. You had attacked the weakest citadel. The other citadels are manned by his sons and daughters who are all saints as well as the more formidable elders. You do have some shit luck."

    Yuan Ji looked a little sheepish when he had heard her.

    But he quickly smiled as he caressed her back, "Little Princess, the night is still long. Shall we?"

    Little Princess nodded gently, "You are my lord now."

    Yuan Ji began to kiss her on her forehead before he moved down to kiss her on her lips. With deft fingers, he loosened her belt and slowly lifted up her skirt.

    He whispered, "This time I shall be the alpha male¡­"

    As Yuan Ji caressed her soft skin, he had remembered her softness and sexuality. In the past he had always tried to suppress his lust for her but tonight, he would release all of his lusts.

    In Yuan Ji''s soul sea, Xiang Li was covering her mouth as she eximed loudly. "YES!!!"

 Chapter 140 The Spirit Blue Moon Sect (1)

    Yuan Ji did not have any tokens of the Orthodox Sword Sect to give to Nangong Xiu. Therefore he gave her a silver token of the Emperor Hall Sect and said to her. "Show this to the elders of the Emperor Hall Sect and they will take care of you. Let them know that First Pce Mistress and Second Pce Mistress are undergoing their breakthroughs and won''t be back for a while. When Fairy Ye Chengxi is back, I will ask her to make you a core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    Nangong Xiu continued to hesitate as she looked at Little Princess.

    But Little Princess returned a smile to her and said, "Go now. I am no longer a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Evil Cultivation Hall and will be following my lord here. If you still want to be my follower, you should do as my lord says."

    Nangong Xiu sighed heavily before she departed with great reluctance.

    When she had left, Yuan Ji and the rest of the maidens immediately took off on the Spirit Crane to continue their way to the unorthodox fraternity.

    -

    -

    -

    Dayster, the Spirit Crane that was carrying them had finally reached the Spirit Blue Mountains where the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was situated.

    The reason why the Spirit Blue Mountains got its present name was because the mountains were bluish hues in many ces and the mountains produce a rare type of spirit blue jades.

    The Spirit Blue Moon Sect is one of the five major unorthodox ns of the unorthodox fraternity. Being a major power, it naturally owned the entire Spirit Blue Mountains that consisted of some three hundred mountains. Basically the viges in the Spirit Blue Mountains are owned by the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and they are also all prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    It is said that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect numbered some one hundred thousand and they had slightly over a thousand golden celestials.

    Ling Feiyue smiled when she saw the familiar blue mountains of her home. "Finally I can inhale the rich spiritual auras of the mountains."

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "The spiritual auras here is as strong as the Holy Maiden Peaks. I feel so ufortable while I was at the Five Heavens Peak. Now this is a weing change!"

    "I don''t know how Ji Yuan is able to cultivate to such a high level in the Five Heavens Peaks. It is really such a miracle thing." Ling Feiyue agreed.

    Little Princess nodded too, "That is why the cultivators at the Five Heavens Peaks are mostly sword cultivators without a strong profound power base. Their mountains cannot afford them with a strong cultivation in the more superior profound arts."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Do they have to talk about my Five Heavens Peaks?

    As soon as they had approached within the vicinity of the Spirit Blue Mountains, more than thirty Great Rocs were seen flying toward them. Mounting on top of each of the Great Rocs were three cultivators and many of them were shouting loudly. "Who are you? Where are you from? Leave or die!"

    Ling Feiyue immediately rose to stand at the front of the Spirit Crane as she raised her internal profound strength to disy her voice with great rity. "I''m your Dark Mistress!"

    "It is our Dark Mistress! She''s back!"

    "Please pardon us for not recognizing you!"

    "Wee back to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect!"

    The dozens of cultivators were immediately respectfully as they shouted loudly, "May the Blue Moon of the Spirit Blue Mountains light the luminous rule of our Dark Mistress!"

    One group of the cultivators quickly said, "Let us go ahead first to inform the patriarch elders."

    Yuan Ji secretly noted that all the cultivators on the Great Rocs were golden celestials and there were ny golden celestials altogether.

    He sighed quietly. When the Five Heavens Peaks were attacked by an epic deste beast, the entire Five Heavens Peaks numbering more than a hundred celestial ns could only manage to muster less than two hundred golden celestials. Now he was seeing a single patrol of ny golden celestials from just a single sect.

    There were many peaks at the Spirit Blue Mountains and he soon saw many beautiful castles with ck walls on top of each peak.

    They soonnded on thergest citadel of the highest peak. When they hadnded, their Spirit Crane was quite relieved and almost immediately, she had fallen into a deep slumber. It was because the Spirit Crane was exhausted from carrying four people and a nine-tail spirit fox. Moreover for this trip, they had flown almost nonstop for many days.

    Xue Qianxue smiled to her Spirit Crane as she caressed her slender neck, "Please take a good rest first. Thank you for your care for us along the way. My gratitude is upon you."

    Ling Feiyue was greeted almost immediately by hundreds of cultivators as they promptly greeted her respectfully.

    "Your prot¨¦g¨¦s pay our homage to our Dark Mistress!"

    "May the Blue Moon of the Spirit Blue Mountains light the luminous rule of our Dark Mistress!"

    "The elders are waiting inside."

    A female cultivator immediately said to Ling Feiyue, "The elders are expecting you. Does Dark Mistress like me to escort the venerate guests to the guest hall first?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "No need."

    "But the elders may have something important to discuss with you¡­"

    "No need." Ling Feiyue insisted. "Let them follow me."

    The female cultivator nodded before she whispered, "The five patriarch elders are not too d."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly before she returned a nod. "I know what to do. Thank you."

    The interior of the ck citadel of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was imposing and there were banners of a blue moon everywhere. It was because the Blue Moon is the heraldry of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    As they walked through the hallway, Yuan Ji asked Ling Feiyue. "There seems to be a tense atmosphere in this ce. Why is it so?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she took bold strides, "I''m surprise that you can sense it. My rtionship with my five patriarch elders are not exactly smooth sailing. We had a big quarrel when I had mustered the elites of my sect to aid Sister Qianxue. Now that I am back, they definitely won''t be polite to me."

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly, "Thank you Sister Feiyue."<sub> </sub>

    Yuan Ji was also sighing softly, "That is the problem with the big sects. Even if you are a sect master, you are not the absolute leader because you have all the patriarchs and matriarchs on top of you. It is better to be in a small sect."

    Little Princess lit a soft chuckle, "Howe you sound a little sour?"

    "Am I?" Yuan Jiughed it off. He was being sarcastic about it but he did not expect that Little Princess would be able to sniff it out almost immediately.

    "What makes you think that a small sect doesn''t have any their internal problems?" Little Princess looked at him with a wry smile.

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before saying, "Well, in my sect there is no such issue."

    All three maidens were giggling softly.

    Yuan Ji frowned immediately when he heard their giggling. "Don''t you know that it is rude tough at another sect in front of the others?"

    "Did we say anything about your sect being a poor sect?"

    "I want to say that his sect is too poor to have any patriarchs but I didn''t say it."

    "Maybe all the high level cultivators in his sect have joined the other sects¡­"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He replied weakly as he stroked Xiaobai, "Can''t you all be like Qianfeng? She is always quiet."

    But the maidens quicklyughed, "We can be like Qianfeng only if you are always carrying us. How about it?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    After a while, they had reached the inner hall of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and there were arge assembly of cultivators inside.

    In front of them stood five cultivators with sharp piercing golden eyes. Three were men and two were women. They were the five patriarch elders of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    The hundreds of cultivators immediately greeted Ling Feiyue when they saw her. Their greetings were respectful butcked the passionate greeting that Yuan Ji had seen earlier.

    It did not take a smart person to guess that most of these cultivators were actually on the side of the patriarch elders.

    Ling Feiyue immediately greeted, "Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi, Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui, Patriarch Moon Elder Du Dong, Patriarch Moon Elder Fu Mantian, Matriarch Moon Elder Jing Yuan. Feiyue is back now."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi stared at Yuan Ji and the two veil maidens before he said sternly. "And who are these people?"

    He was not the only ones that were curious about them; almost all the cultivators in the hall could tell that the two veiled maidens were extremely moving to the eyes and the beardless man had a magnificent air around him.

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "This is Sword Demon Ji Yuan!"

    When she had announced his name, many of the cultivators had broken into loud murmurs.

    "He is that Ji Yuan that had killed Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo?"

    "I heard that he is only an Initial Saint¡­"

    "So he is the one that is wanted by the major orthodox ns¡­"

    "He is the one that worked hand in hand with Little Princess to kill Saint Wu Heng and Eldest Young Master Zhan Long¡­"

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi hummed coldly, "You even dare to bring Ji Yuan here. Why don''t you bring Little Princess and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue here too."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "My other two guests are indeed Little Princess and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue."

    Xue Qianxueughed with a yful look at the patriarch elders, "Former Sacred Maiden."

    All five patriarch elders were stunned immediately.

    All the cultivators in the hall were shocked as they stared at the two veiled maidens.

    Among the two veil maidens, Little Princess was the most mysterious and no one had seen her true apperance. Moreover she was rumored to be a heaven-step great saintess.

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi said coldly to Ling Feiyue, "You have brought a cmity upon us! Do you know that the major orthodox ns are now attacking us and the other four unorthodox ns are refusing to aid us? Except for a few dozen allies, we are on our own. Now you have even brought Little Princess and Sword Demon Ji Yuan here, I am afraid that this time our sect will be done for! How can you answer to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and to the proud ancestors of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?!"

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui inhaled softly as she stepped forward. "If we hand over this Ji Yuan and Little Princess over to the major orthodox ns then we can avert this cmity. This is for the good of our sect."

    Ling Feiyue waved her hands and said coldly, "You can''t do that because¡­"

    She had suddenly turned to look shyly at Yuan Ji, "He is my lord now. Therefore he is also the new Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    When she had suddenly announced that, all the cultivators were stunned. Many had even turned ashen and had taken a few steps back with shock in their eyes!

    Xue Qianxue looked a little fluster. It was because she would never be able to proim so boldly like Ling Feiyue.

    Even Yuan Ji was thinking, "Although Feiyue''s voice is soft but whether it is her words or actions, she is always so bold."

    He was feeling quite awkward because he had suddenly noticed the dozens of hateful gazes in his direction!

 Chapter 141 The Spirit Blue Moon Sect (2)

    When Ling Feiyue said that Yuan Ji was her lord and also her Dark Lord, she had a beautiful fluster look on her. Anyone that could see her beautiful countenance immediately knows that she was speaking the truth.

    This time round Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui had raised her voice to say sternly to her, "This is not a decision that you can make on your own!"

    Ling Feiyue stared at her but this time she dared not return any bold words but smiled weakly, "This is my own happiness. Surely I can make my own decisions on this, am I right?"

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui hummed coldly as she stared coldly at Ling Feiyue.

    The reason why Ling Feiyue dared not raised a racket was because Ling Tianshui was her deceased mother''s sister and Ling Tianshui had raised her as her own daughter. Therefore she was quite respectful to her.

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui lifted her head to stare at Yuan Ji, "So you are Ji Yuan? The Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Yuan Ji wanted to correct her that he was now the Sword Demon Ji Yuan but he decided to keep his mouth shut. So he merely returned a weak smile.

    "Nowadays even a beardless man dares to dream of bing a dragon and even scheme to make use of a woman to attain his goals." Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui scoffed aloud.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji immediately said, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words!"

    "You mean you are not a beardless man?" Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui lit a wry smile.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji shamelessly decided to say, "I once had the most beautiful beard in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I''m sure that you had all heard about it. However I had decided to cut it because I have finally realized the truth about something and that is, beards are ugly! How can I allow the gracious beauty of Ling Feiyue to apany my ugly beard?"

    When he had said that, more than half of the cultivators with beautiful beards were all shouting angrily.

    "This is sphemy!"

    "Too outrageous!"

    "How dare he insult our beards?!"

    "Is he a real man or not?"

    "Only real men have beards! Or else he is just a maiden!"

    "How dare a beardless man dare to lecture us?"

    However there were also many beardless cultivators that have lost their beards during their bodily transformation who were immediately defending Yuan Ji. And even some of thedy cultivators were also joining in the argument.

    "He is right."

    "Beards are ugly¡­"

    "He has the right to criticize because he once had the most beautiful beard¡­"

    "He is the best person to judge whether beards are beautiful or not¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is right. He is really handsome without his beard¡­"

    All of a sudden even Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui cold countenance had a quiet smile. It was because she had always thought that beards were ugly but dared not speak loudly on this because in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, there were many men that had prided themselves on their beautiful beards.

    She could not resist a chuckle as she asked, "Why did you say that being beards are ugly?"

    Ling Feiyue was panicky for Yuan Ji as she was afraid that he may say something wrong so she quickly whispered to him, "Don''t answer her."

    But Yuan Jiughed and said, "The true appearance of a man lies in his face. With a beard, the man is able to conceal his emotions. Naturally as a man of honor, I will not want to hide my deceits behind my beard. At the same time, I like to caress my fingers on the beautiful face of my consort Feiyue and I like her to kiss my beautiful face as well."

    Almost all the cultivators reacted with shock when they had heard Yuan Ji!

    Ling Feiyue was flushed with shyness when she had heard Yuan Ji. She had wanted to step on his foot but her embarrassment was so great that she did not have the strength to do so. She had to use all her will just to fight off her awkwardness. Even though she was bold and was often thick skin but now Yuan Ji was making her into a thin-skin blushing young maiden. She just wished that there was a hole for her to hide into!

    Even Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were rendered flustered by Yuan Ji''s words and they were now pretending not to know him as they took a step back lest they would suddenly be Yuan Ji''s new targets of embarrassment.

    When Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui saw Ling Feiyue was flushing with such great shyness, she knew that it was true. There was also a light flush on her countenance as she tried very hard not to imagine Yuan Ji''s preying fingers that were on her niece.

    The many cultivators were flushed with anger and embarrassment when they were imagining the lustful fingers of Yuan Ji on the face of their Goddess Ling Feiyue.

    This was a direct p to their faces!

    A lowly uncultured cultivator that was from the barbaric Five Heavens Peaks had dared to touch their Dark Mistress!

    The major powers of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, which included both the major orthodox and unorthodox celestial ns often have some blood rtionship with one another. To the major powers, they are the nobles and elites of the Deste Celestial Fraternity therefore it is unthinkable for any of them to marry down themoners.

    Another major reason that gives shape to this thought is that the mountains that the major powers are upying are the richest in spiritual auras. Therefore it is unthinkable of them to move to the mountain regions where the spiritual auras are weaker and hence impaired their cultivation speed.

    The strong spiritual auras that are in the mountains of the major powers also greatly contributed to the survival of the celestials when they are undergoing their life and death tribtions, indirectly producing more and more golden celestials.<sub> </sub>

    Over a period of time the poorer regions got poorer while the richer regions grow more powerful.

    And this created an elitist attitude among the major powers.

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi stroked his beard as he hummed coldly, "Whether he is qualified to be our Dark Lord still remains too early to be seen. I am afraid that he will be a prisoner for now and we can use him as a bargaining chip with the orthodox cultivators¡­"

    "No!" Ling Feiyue interrupted. "Ji Yuan will challenge the Patriarch Elders for his right to marry me!"

    When she had said that, the five Patriarch Elders were allughing jovially. This was really the funniest thing that they had ever heard.

    ording to the ancientw of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, a cultivator may win eptance to be the Dark Lord/ Dark Mistress if the current sect master is willing to endorse him/ her.

    And now Ling Feiyue was endorsing Yuan Ji to be her Dark Lord!

    The many cultivators in the hall were allughing at the same time too.

    "All five of the Patriarch Elders are great saints¡­"

    "If he thinks he can win even the weakest Patriarch Elder then he must be dreaming!"

    "What is the cultivation realm level of this Ji Yuan again?"

    "A lowly initial saint cultivator¡­"

    "A good-for-nothing sword cultivator¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is going to be a dead man soon¡­"

    "A dead beardless man¡­"

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi added coldly, "If he can defeat me then he can be our Dark Lord. Or else I shall cripple his cultivation and will surrender him to the orthodox cultivator!"

    As Yuan Ji did not like the disdainful look that was upon him and this provoked his Undying Fighting Spirit. Therefore he answered immediately, "So be it! I am not afraid of you."

    All the cultivators around the hall were allughing all of a sudden. Many were even holding onto their stomach as they swayed to and fro.

    Yuan Ji immediately frowned, "What''s so funny?"

    Ling Feiyue whispered weakly, "Patriarch Elder Chen Yi is a heaven-step great saint."

    Yuan Ji immediately rolled his eyes.

    When Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi saw Yuan Ji''s expression, he began tough jovially, "Since you have the courage to challenge me, I shall not disappoint you.

    Actually when Yuan Ji had rolled his eyes, it was not lost on most of the cultivators who were watching his expressions, including Ling Feiyue.

    Everyone thought that Yuan Ji was now afraid and he had just shown a sign of weakness.

    Actually Yuan Ji was thinking, "I''ve thought that this Patriarch Elder Chen Yi is a peaked upper great saint. Although I am an earth-step upper saint and isn''t at my peak but the disparity isn''t that great."

    Ling Feiyue averted her eyes shyly as she whispered to him, "I hope that you can fight this battle for my sake."

    Yuan Ji smiled and said, "I will."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi smiled coldly, "You shall be given three days of rest¡­"

    Yuan Ji interrupted with a grin, "No need! Why don''t we duel immediately?"

    When the cultivators had heard Yuan Ji, they were allughing so loud that the entire hall was filled with jovialughter.

    "I didn''tugh so loudly for such a long time¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is so funny¡­"

    "Someone go and take a look at his sword art ranking again¡­"

    "I happen to remember it. His sword art ranking is not even in the top 100¡­"

    "Hoho, what a joker¡­"

    "If he can be a Sword Saint then we can all be Sword Saints too! Haha."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi was also smiling, "Since you are so eager to prove your worthiness for our Dark Mistress then I shall just have to grant your wish for you."

    Then he shouted. "To the duel tform!"

    When he had announced it, all the cultivators were excited with loud murmurings. As a matter of fact, many of the cultivators were rushing to announce to the other peaks that there was an exciting duel that was about to take ce soon.

    "Let everyone knows! Quick!"

    "Sword Demon Yuan Ji versus Patriarch Elder Chen Yi!"

    "Is this duel even a duel? I mean our Patriarch Elder Chen Yi will surely thrash him up."

    "This beardless Ji Yuan dares to go after our Goddess Dark Mistress. He deserves to be killed!"

 Chapter 142 The Spirit Blue Moon Sect (3)

    The dueling tform wasrge and there were defensive arrays around the tform to absorb any stray profound energies.

    When Yuan Ji had arrived, thousands of cultivators were already presented and the crowd was chatting loudly.

    Bai Qianfeng licked his fingers and leapt from Yuan Ji''s arms just before he had stepped into the dueling tform.

    Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue gave him an encouraging look at the same time too.

    Yuan Ji grinned, "Don''t worry, I will surely win this duel."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "You have better or else I will have to get myself another lord."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Then you have to wait a fifth lifetime for us to be together. But for the fifth lifetime, I have to reconsider if I want to be with you." Yuan Ji grinned.

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Before Ling Feiyue could hit him with her fists, aughing Yuan Ji had already leapt into the dueling tform.

    At the same time, Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi had also just arrived with the other patriarch elders. There were thunderous ps and cheers as the thousands of cultivators waved their support for Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi.

    Yuan Ji shrugged his shoulders since he did not care whether he had any support or not. He was basically spoiling for a fight so that he can prove to everyone that sword cultivators are not as useless as they were supposed to be.

    <o>,m Therefore he decided to use this Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi as a stepping stone to show the Deste Celestial Fraternity what the sword cultivators were made of. However he knew that he also had to give some face to his opponent as well so he did not have the intention to win.</o>

    Yuan Ji had immediately disyed the heaven-step precious sword that he had borrowed from Ling Feiyue on his left hand.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were startled that Yuan Ji was not using his celestial-step divine sword.

    Ling Feiyue looked a little panicky, "Ji Yuan, Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi is a formidable power cultivator. Please do not underestimate your opponent! Use your other sword!"

    But Yuan Ji pretended not to hear her as he said to Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi, "Um. This isn''t a life and death duel, am I right?"

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yiughed coldly, "Naturally it is not. The one that waves the white g will be able to concede. That is, if you still have the voice to call out."

    Many of the cultivators wereughing jovially when they had heard their Patriarch Elder Chen Yi. It was because they had all thought that Yuan Ji was looking for an exit.

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi took a look at Yuan Ji''s heaven-step precious sword before he unsheathed his heaven-step divine sword. "You don''t even have a half-step divine sword?"

    Yuan Ji swung his precious sword in front of him and said. "This is good enough."

    Many of the cultivators wereughing nonstop now. In terms of cultivation realm level and weapon, Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi was the superior. In their minds, the winner had already been decided!

    "Please give me your instructions." Yuan Ji added.

    "I definitely will." Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi scoffed coldly.

    Yuan Ji had immediately mustered his sword energies into his sword as a gentle outburst of profound energies burst forth around him.

    "Middle saint¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is actually a middle-saint!"

    "No, half-step great saint!"

    "He is not an initial saint?"

    "But he will still lose horribly. He doesn''t even have a divine sword to back him up."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi looked a little surprise. It was because he had thought that Yuan Ji was at best only a mortal-step initial saint. But all of a sudden his divine sense had identified him as a half-step great saint.

    Actually Yuan Ji could only muster his profound strength to the peak middle saint level. The reason why his opponents had thought that he was a half-step great saint was because it was difficult to hide the profound animus of a great saint.

    Since he could not muster his cultivation strength to the great saint level, naturally his opponents had thought that he was only a half-step great saint. The truth was he was actually at the earth-step seventh realm sacred saint level.

    A strong golden animus had enveloped over Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi as he smiled to Yuan Ji, "As your senior, I will be gracious to give you the benefit of a first strike."

    What a strong profound animus! Yuan Ji thought.

    Is he a profound animus cultivator, an external power cultivator, an internal power cultivator or several hybrids?

    This was actually Yuan Ji''s first thoughts. It is because the cultivators from the major celestial ns often had more time to pick up plenty of cultivation methods since they have essed to more plentiful celestial resources. Because of the rich spiritual auras in their mountains, they did not even need to spend as much time in their cultivation and can free their time to do some excess things.

    I will know very soon.

    Yuan Ji immediately disyed a nonchntly smile. "Alright then I shall make the first move."

    Yuan Ji immediately swung his sword as he released a wave of ground sword energy that sped toward Chen Yi.

    Chen Yi smirked coldly as he calmly swung his sword. With just a single stroke, he hadpletely dissipated Yuan Ji''s sword energy attack.

    "Is this the best that you can do? Ha!"

    Yuan Ji quickly leapt upon Chen Yi with his sword strokes. His left hand was now as fast as his right hand before he had mastered the Natural Instinct. Therefore his sword strokes were swift and dazzling.

    However because of the defensive profound animus of Chen Yi that was radiating around him, even before Yuan Ji coulde near to his opponent, the profound power of his sword strokes was halved.

    Therefore with just two powerful strokes that were from Chen Yi, Yuan Ji was sent flying backward due to the vast disparity of power between them.

    Many of the cultivators in the hall were now cheering madly for Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi. It seemed to them that Yuan Ji was too weak!

    Even Ling Feiyue was cursing Yuan Ji softly, "Darn, what is he doing? He didn''t use his celestial sword, didn''t disy his physical sword energy form, uses a puny single sword energy wave and now he is getting beaten!"

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly, "Sister Feiyue, you are mouthing profanities?"

    Ling Feiyue quickly covered her mouth with her fingers, "Ops sorry. I just got so¡­uncultured."

    The instant when Yuan Ji was knocked furiously backward, he had released several bursts of sword energies that exploded around Chen Yi to cover him in a outburst of smog.

    Chen Yi did not even need to block because these sword energies bursts were just too weak to prate through his formidable profound aura.

    "Sword Demon Ji Yuan, you do know that you have to bypass my profound aura before you can even hurt my golden body. Do you?" Chen Yiughed aloud.

    It was as though he was giving an instruction to Yuan Ji.

    But Yuan Ji was grinning, "I just enjoy seeing my sword energies attacks on you. Since it is so dangerous to meet you in a direct confrontation, I may as well throw my puny firecrackers at you."

    Chen Yi: ...

    "You think that I am not able to get you?" Chen Yi hummed coldly.

    All of a sudden he had raised his sword and used his unique sword art; burning mes began to explode around his sword as he condensed his profound power.

    "Nine Yang Divine Sword Art!"

    In a blink of an eye he had already raised his unique sword art to its peak power. This spoke volumes of his proficiency with this sword art.

    Chen Yi had already gauged the profound strength of his opponent. With this sword art and his profound animusbined, his opponents'' sword energies would not be able to hurt him. Therefore he did not even need to defend against his opponent.

    Yuan Ji swung his sword to release a white beam of light in the dancing form of a coiling dragon. This was the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that he had created with Ling Feiyue.

    Chen Yi was slightly startled that Yuan Ji still had a trump card of this power as both their profound arts shed against each other.

    Chen Yi was forced to take a step back while Yuan Ji was forced to take five steps back as he coughed out a bout of golden blood!

    The profound power of the Nine Yang Divine Sword Art was greater than the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!

    Chen Yi was actually secretly startled that Yuan Ji was still able to stand.

    Therefore he attacked again with his Nine Yang Divine Sword Art.

    Again Yuan Ji disyed the same profound art. This time round he was knocked back four steps backward and coughed out another bout of blood.

    This caused Chen Yi to be surprised. He had used the same exact profound strength.

    Usually when a weaker opponent was injured by the same profound art, he would not be able to mount up a higher defense due to his injuries.

    This caused Chen Yi to be a little perplexed because Yuan Ji had a weak profound aura and it was too weak to resist his profound art. Therefore the only way for Yuan Ji to resist his profound attack was to invest his profound strength into his profound sword art.

    But the same profound attack did not seem to work that well against Yuan Ji.

    Maybe he is mustering all his profound strength to resist my second attack and trying to save his face. Four steps or five steps, it is almost the same.

    Therefore with this thought in mind, Chen Yi had suddenly mustered a bright halo around him.<sub> </sub>

    This caused many of the cultivators to shout excitingly. "This is our Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi''s spirit entity!"

    Chen Yi actually had a spirit entity that could increase his profound strength by an additional 30%.

    Ling Feiyue shouted panicky to Yuan Ji, "My lord, please be careful!"

    Chen Yi smirked as the profound power of his sword increased tremendous. "You didn''t think that I have already used my trump card, do you? Let me show you the ultimate sword art of my Nine Yang Divine Sword."

    The divine sword of Chen Yi had suddenly turned ming red as nine rolling balls of mes began to hover around him. Even though his spirit entity had given him a 30% profound strength increase but his actual profound power gained was actually a whopping 120% because it enabled him to use his Ultimate Nine Yang Divine Sword Art.

    Chen Yi was now upon Yuan Ji like a ming firebird. His profound attack was so fierce that the entire dueling tform was heating up with this powerful disy of his profound power!

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and even Bai Qianfeng were all nervously watching the duel. There was one way for Yuan Ji to block off this powerful profound attack and that was to disy his celestial-step divine sword. The power of his celestial sword would be enough to preserve his life.

    But Yuan Ji did not take out his celestial sword. Instead he disyed three waves of sword energies ahead of him, only to have these sword energies to be totally melted under the profound power of Chen Yi.

    In the next instant, his heaven-step precious sword was shattered to pieces and Yuan Ji was sent flying more than twenty steps backward and an explosive streak of burning profound energies could be seen around him.

    Even Yuan Ji''s weak profound animus waspletely burnt off and his golden body was burnt.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng were all gasping with shock.

    Many of the cultivators wereughing and cheering for Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi.

    "Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi has won!"

    "This Ji Yuan is dead?"

    "He is still breathing¡­"

    "But he has not surrendered yet so this duel is still not finished yet¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was bleary eyed as she shouted, "Stop! Ji Yuan¡­has lost¡­"

    Chen Yi smirked coldly, "He has not waved the white g yet so this duel must still continue."

    "Yea. That is right. I have not lost yet." Yuan Ji had suddenly picked himself up as he looked at his broken precious sword. "Guess that I need another sword now but against such a powerful sword art, I may end up breaking another precious sword. So I guess I have to make do with this broken sword for now."

    When the many cultivators saw that Yuan Ji was still looking spirited despite the injuries that he had received, they were actually quite startled.

    Even Chen Yi was blinking his eyes. This is impossible, right? He doesn''t seem to have any defensive profound art that can absorb my attack¡­

    He did not know that although Yuan Ji did not have any defensive profound art but he had allocated his profound strength into his recovery.

    Yuan Ji had wanted to know how much his great saint golden body would take and he had purposely taken the hit.

    "It is actually quite painful. Haha." He thought. "But I am still alive."

    Chen Yi hummed coldly, "You are only putting on a brave front. Since you are standing up now. Let''s continue our fight."

    "Alright." Yuan Ji said.

    Just as Chen Yi had raised his sword to point at Yuan Ji, a barrage of nine sword waves had exploded around him and even caused him to take two steps backward!

    Chen Yi was quite startled. He is able to disy three waves of sword energies waves consecutive? He still has that much profound strength?

    Yuan Ji had actually used very little of his profound strength while Chen Yi had consumed quite a lot of his profound strength.

    But before Chen Yi could think further, Yuan Ji was now upon him with his broken sword and he was disying his sword strokes, faster than ever before.

    This startled Chen Yi. He is not at his limits earlier?

    The two of them immediately encircled each other furiously as they shed their swords and profound arts at the same time.

    This went on for another thirty minutes and Chen Yi was now beginning to inhale lightly while Yuan Ji was still looking as fresh as ever.

    This was not lost on many of the cultivators.

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "He has not used his right hand, celestial sword and his best profound arts yet¡­what is he trying to do?"

    Little Princess was smiling as she whispered to her, "He is trying his best to be your Dark Lord. Hehe."

    Ling Feiyue: ???

    Ji Yuan pretended to inhale heavily before he suddenly said to Chen Yi, "We have been fighting for some time now. I wonder if there is a draw oue for our duel?"

    Chen Yi was actually feeling a little perplexed and at a loss now on how to defeat Yuan Ji. It was because he had expended too much of his profound strength at the start of the battle. Even if he used the same profound art against him now, it was much weaker than his earlier attacks.

    He just could not understand why Yuan Ji was not affected by the profound might of his attacks.

    Naturally he did not know that Yuan Ji did not use his full profound strength at the very start and had limited himself to 70% of his strength. When he was attacked by Chen Yi''s powerful profound attack, he had raised his defensive power to the maximum, only to lower it immediately before he attacked again.

    Yuan Ji only had one goal and that was to weaken his opponent while conserving the rest of his profound strength into his recovery. It was because he knew that it was impossible to defeat Chen Yi at the very start when he was at his strongest.

    Although he had the confidence of defeating Chen Yi but he did not want to because he would end up with some backstabbing elders at the end of the day.

    Chen Yi was not stupid so he was grinning. "I think that you have already proven yourself. Therefore it is pointless for me to continue. If I were to use my full strength, this will be most unfair to you."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Really? Haha. Then I can get to be with your Dark Mistress even if it is just a draw?"

    "Naturally." Chen Yi was smiling.

    Yuan Ji chuckled, "Alright. So shall it be."

    Chen Yi made a pretentiousugh, "Ji Yuan, congrats on winning the heart of our Dark Mistress!"

    When he had announced as such, all the patriarch elders and many of the cultivators were stunned.

    Why did Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi have to announce the duel as a draw when it is obviously that Ji Yuan is losing?

    To the many onlookers, Yuan Ji was indeed badly beaten up and he was at a disadvantage.

    "¡­..."

    "So Ji Yuan wins?"

    "A draw means that Ji Yuan also wins? But why?"

    "Bute to think of it, this Ji Yuan didn''t get killed by our Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi. This is already a miracle thing."

    However to Chen Yi, he was feeling the stress of maintaining his formidable profound aura and his attack strokes. The drain of his profound strength was much greater than Yuan Ji and he had suddenly realized that Yuan Ji was recovering faster than he had expected. Moreover, Yuan Ji always seemed to be able to avoid his most deadly strikes and he had suddenly realized that Yuan Ji was too quick.

    Therefore he was actually facing a lot of pressure. Now that Yuan Ji had offered him a chance to salvage his face while everyone was thinking that he had an advantage, naturally he would quickly epted it.

    When Chen Yi returned to thepany of the other patriarch elders, he simply said. "It is not right for me to bully a junior. Moreover he has already proven to me that he is a capable fighter."

    This was his only exnation when all the patriarch elders were asking him why.

    Chen Yi just could not understand it and his only conclusion was that his opponent may have some powerful internal profound art that can aid his recovery!

    Actually Yuan Ji did not have any powerful internal profound art but after he had undergone his soul tempering, his profound strength was stronger than any of the same rank saint. Plus he had also undergone the Purple Lightning Tribtion.

    When Yuan Ji had stepped out of the dueling tform, he was immediately surrounded by Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as they surrounded him anxiously.

    "Ji Yuan, how are your wounds?"

    "Are you hurt in any way?"

    "If you have any difort, please tell us immediately!"

    Yuan Ji was suddenly in the middle of all the envious res of many of the jealous cultivators.

    He did not care on what was in their minds as he purposely staggered weakly so that he could grab Ling Feiyue''s slim waist and butt in front of their eyes, causing many of them to have blood curdling blood rages.

    Ling Feiyue was smiling at him with a most affectionate look, "I didn''t expect that you can actually draw with my Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi. This is good¡­"

    Yuan Ji chuckled. "I was only lucky, that''s all. Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi is a really strong opponent. But luckily, I have a better trump card than him in the battle."

    "Oh? What is it?" the maidens began to wonder curiously and at the same time, many of the nearby cultivators were also secretly listening into their conversations.

    "Because I did not have a beard to hinder me, I was able to think and move quicker than my previous beautiful beard self."

    This message was not lost on the many cultivators who were eavesdropping on him.

    That very day, several dozen cultivators began to shave off their beautiful beards. When some of them asked thedy cultivators if they were quicker, many of thedy cultivators began to praise them as better than before.

    This created a false belief that being beardless is good from this day onward and creates an upward  beardless trend as more and more beardless cultivators began to appear throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

 Chapter 143 The Spirit Blue Moon Sect (4)

    The five patriarch elders were now in another hall which was a smaller hall in the inner citadel and they were now looking at Yuan Ji, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue curiously.

    Xiaobai was almost invisible in their eyes because at the point, they were not interested in any nine-tail spirit fox.

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui inhaled softly as she looked at Yuan Ji, "You didn''t do your best in the duel earlier, am I right?"

    When she had said that, all the other four patriarch elders were all looking a little startled.

    Yuan Ji rubbed his chin to reply, "I have thought that I had already done my very best. Why do you say so?"

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui quietly said, "Your heart beat betrays you."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue was gasping, "I have forgotten that Matriarch Moon Elder Ling is able to use her divine sense to read the heart beats of the cultivators due to a special profound art that she is practicing."

    Ling Tianshui nodded, "Throughout the duel, you''re absolutely calm and even your heart beat did not have any irregrity at all. It only means one thing; you are not even doing your very best."

    When a person exerts himself, the heart will be pumping hard to muster all the hidden potential strength of the cultivator''s body. For Yuan Ji''s heart to remain unaffected, it would only mean that he was not even exerting himself to do his best.

    Chen Yi began to frown immediately, "Some cultivators have the ability to be calm but it doesn''t mean that they are strong."

    Ling Tianshui appraised Yuan Ji closely for a while, "Why don''t you show me your true strength before I hand over my niece to you? If you are hiding your abilities then how do we know that you are the one that we can entrust the happiness of our Dark Mistress to you?"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes immediately before he grinned. "Alright but there won''t be a duel."

    Chen Yi was thinking. Even if you have some trump cards, you won''t be able to beat me...

    With a quick sh, he had disyed his celestial-step divine sword out of his spatial ring and all of a sudden there was a rippling invisible shockwave that was pushing everyone away from it.

    "A celestial sword!"

    "He does have a divine sword after all¡­"

    "Then why did he use a lowly precious sword¡­"

    All five patriarch elders were startled.

    As Yuan Ji lifted his celestial sword, there were two blinding halo around it. Immediately the suppression that everyone was feeling had increased by several folds!

    All of a sudden a mirror image of his celestial sword that was five times bigger than his sword had shed out like a coiling dragon and a wave of ground sword energies had split the ground underneath them and had thunderously blown up a hole through the walls of the hall!

    Immediately the five patriarch elders were all stunned.

    "Perfect divine harmony¡­"

    "The walls of the hall are made of celestiums¡­"

    "This is only a single sword energy¡­"

    "Perfect sword energies form¡­"

    All of a sudden the five patriarch elders were all looking awkward; it was because they had all looked down upon Yuan Ji and they had never expected that he would be so formidable!

    The fingers of Chen Yi were stammering as he recalled his duel with Yuan Ji. If he had taken out his celestial sword then it would not be long before he would get ughter. It was because Yuan Ji had proven that he could tank all his attacks even without a divine sword. If this celestial-step divine sword were to be taken out during their duel then his attacking power would more than doubled.

    Yuan Ji quickly defended himself, "I am a Sword Saint by my own right therefore a sword is but a tool to me. If it is just a normal duel and not a life and death battle, there is no need for me to disy my celestial sword."

    All the five patriarch elders really did not know how to answer to Yuan Ji. It was because they could not imagine themselves without their divine swords. At the same time they werepletely stunned by the presence of a celestial sword and the fact that Yuan Ji had a perfect divine harmony with his sword. None of the patriarch elders could actually divine harmony with their divine swords yet.

    Yuan Ji said, "I know that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is in trouble. So I''m here to help Feiyue."

    Then heughed, "I am notpletely useless. Haha."

    At this point none of the five patriarch elders had dared to call Yuan Ji a useless cultivator. With a perfect divine harmonized celestial sword in the hands of a Sword Saint like him, he is now ranked among the top cultivators. Moreover this Yuan Ji is also a great saint.

    Chen Yi said weakly, "You''re a half-step great saint now. In time toe, you will be a powerful great saint."

    Ling Feiyue gave a cute chuckle, "Ji Yuan, he is actually an earth-step great saint! He just had his breakthrough not long ago, that''s why you are not able to sense his peak strength. Also, he had ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion as well."

    All five patriarch elders were stunned!

    Earth-step great saint!

    Purple Lightning Tribtion!

    Celestial Sword!

    Perfect divine harmony!

    What a monstrous genius!<sub> </sub>

    Patriarch Moon Elder Du Dong muttered weakly, "We all thought that he is only an initial saint? ording to the information given by the Mystic Eye Sect, he was estimated to have his breakthrough only just recently. How did he manage to advance so quickly?"

    "The Purple Lightning Tribtion is the most difficult to encounter. In fact, any Lightning Tribtion is equally hard to encounter. Moreover you are only a saint for only a short period of time. How did you manage to attract the Lightning Tribtion in the first ce?" Patriarch Moon Elder Fu Mantian gave a bitter smile as he asked.

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly. I can''t tell them that I was struck by the lightning tribtion of an immortal goddess. Even if I tell them, it is too unbelievable¡­

    Therefore he rubbed his chin to say, "This is a secret."

    When Yuan Ji had rubbed his chin and said that this was a secret, Chen Yi, Du Dong and Fu Mantian were all rolling their eyes and with their intelligence, they had quicklye to the same conclusion; Yuan Ji was already giving them a hint when he was rubbing his chin!

    The secret actually lied with being a beardless cultivator!

    All three of them wereughing all of a sudden. "So that''s it! Haha!"

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui and Matriarch Moon Elder Jing Yuan disyed a weird expression as they looked at the three other elders. Did they manage to figure out the secret already?

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui smiled weakly in their direction before she said to Ling Feiyue, "My dear niece, your cultivation strength seems to be stronger now? Have you met with a fortuitous encounter?"

    Ling Feiyue lowered her eyes bashfully, "I''m now at the upper earth-step sacred level. Also it is all thanks to Ji Yuan that I have retaken my Lightning Tribtion and now I had ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion."

    All the five patriarch elders were stunned!

    Their Dark Mistress had not only advanced a great step and had also ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion!

    Her future is now limitless!

    And it was all thanks to Ji Yuan?

    All of a sudden the five patriarch elders were smiling at Yuan Ji as though he was now their best friend.

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui began to smile at Yuan Ji, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue, "We will prepare hot baths and a personal guest room for all of you. Please pardon our insolence earlier."

    When Xue Qianxue heard that there would be hot baths, she could not resist a cute chuckle. "Wonderful!"

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui smiled and said, "We have all heard that the Goddess Maiden Xue Qianxue is one of the four great beauties. As for Little Princess, there is a rumor that she is also an outstanding beauty. Even though I am also a woman but I am curious about your looks. I wonder if we may have the honor of knowing the true appearances of the two maidens here?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "Since we are your guests and it will be rude to be veiled in front of everyone, I will oblige."

    "I have no issues as well." Little Princess began to unveil herself.

    Xue Qianxue had also started to take off her veil at the same time.

    When they had unveiled themselves, the five patriarch elders were astonished. It was because Xue Qianxue was more beautiful than they had imagined and her loveliness was expressed throughout her facial nuances while Little Princess was extremely mesmerizing and could fill the hearts of men and women with lusts.

    Chen Yi, Du Dong and Fu Mantian were gulping their saliva and their throats were dry when they saw Little Princess and Xue Qianxue. They had thought that they had a high level of willpower but today they had suddenly found it to be sorelycking.

    Even Ling Tianshui and Jing Yuan were blinking at the two astonishing beauties.

    Ling Tianshui could not help muttering, "Beautiful indeed."

    But she quickly decided to get to the point of today''s meeting. "The Evil Cultivation Pce is not entirely popr with the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. There are many celestial ns that have a grudge with the Evil Cultivation Pce. Moreover there is a rumor that Little Princess and Ji Yuan had killed Eldest Young Master Zhan Long and Saint Wu Heng. The two of them are from two of the major orthodox ns¡­"

    Little Princess did not wait for her to finish as she admitted nonchntly, "It isn''t Ji Yuan''s doing. I am the one that had killed them."

    "No! I am the one that had killed them." Yuan Ji dered loudly.

    Ling Feiyue suddenly said, "I understand that if Little Princess is with us then it means that we will also be an enemy of the entire fraternity. However Little Princess is my sister now and she is also Ji Yuan''s consort. Therefore we will take responsibility for this. Even if it means leaving the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, I will still side with my lord Ji Yuan and Little Princess here."

    Xue Qianxue nodded coyly, "And I had already left my sect to be with Ji Yuan!"

    All five patriarch elders were shocked. "You mean the Goddess Maiden Xue Qianxue and Little Princess are all with Ji Yuan?"

    This is totally unjustified!

    How can Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, three of the most beautiful goddess have all chosen to be with this Ji Yuan?!

    Chen Yi, Du Dong and Fu Mantian were secretly looking at Yuan Ji''s handsome face and they all shared the same thought; Ji Yuan was indeed quite dashing without his beard and maybe it was actually a good idea to be beardless too¡­

    Ling Tianshui said weakly, "We need to have an discussion first. After all this concerns the survival of our sect. In the meantime, please make yourself at home here. We shall keep Little Princess and Maiden Xue close rtionship with Ji Yuan a secret for the time being until we have made our decisions."

    With that the five patriarch elders had left the hall.

    "Why did you have to take my me on you?" Little Princess said unhappily. "I''m the one that had killed them."

    Yuan Ji patted her gently on her shoulder, "Because you are my princess and I ought to protect you. Do I even need a reason for that?"

    Little Princess averted her eyes shyly before she sighed softly. "Up to you. But don''t you me me when you have regretted it!"

    Yuan Jiughed, "I won''t!"

 Chapter 144 Ling Tianshui (1)

    Ling Feiyue had taken Little Princess and Xue Qianxue to her bed chamber and showed them her wardrobes.

    She pped her hands delightfully, "If you see any dress that you like, don''t be shy about it and please feel free to take them."

    When Ling Feiyue was showing everyone her wardrobes, even Bai Qianfeng and Xiang Li could not resist their curiosity and were also looking at the dozens of wardrobes that were in disy; Bai Qianfeng had assumed her human form and even Xiang Li had popped up from Yuan Ji''s soul sea.

    When Little Princess saw Xiang Li, she got a big startle. "She is?"

    Xiang Li was actually really a most sensuous young maiden and her enticing sexuality could be seen through her thinly veiled clothes.

    Yuan Ji weakly introduced Xiang Li to Little Princess.

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I am Xiang Li! I have known you for a long time!"

    Little Princess was suddenly gasping and she was flushing, "That night¡­"

    Yuan Ji quickly said, "Xiang Li is extremely innocent. Don''t worry about that. She can''t hear or see anything unless I allow her to do so."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "That is right! Xiang Li can''t see or hear anything when master decides to go bang bang!"

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Little Princess, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Little Princess returned Yuan Ji a look, "Just how many secrets have you been hiding from me? Hurry and tell me!"

    Yuan Ji muttered something incoherently before he answered weakly, "I have also taken Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan who are my core prot¨¦g¨¦s as my consorts."

    Little Princess looked a little exasperated. "I thought that you have always been flirting but had never taken any of your rtionship seriously? And you are the type that won''t touch your prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Actually Little Princess was aware of this. As soon as she had found out that he was Yuan Ji, she had done a little background check on him. But she was just curious why he had taken them as his consorts.

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes before he said bitterly, "It is a terribly long story. I got setup by someone. Haha."

    Xia Jiajia had setup Shangguan Yan for him while Fairy Ye Chengxi was setup by Shangguan Yan for him.

    Little Princess said with a weird look at him, "Tell me everything. I''m really interested to know more."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Why don''t you pick the dresses first."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Then can you please go out first? We will be changing."

    Yuan Ji muttered almost incoherently, "It is not as though I have not seen everything yet¡­" But he quickly escaped after his mutterings. It was because he knew that Ling Feiyue was just trying to help him to get out of this situation.

    "Don''t take too long." He could not resist adding.

    After Yuan Ji had left the room, Ling Feiyue continued to show her sisters her wardrobes.

    Xiang Li looked a little mncholy, "I can only look at these beautiful dresses but I am unable to wear any¡­"

    Immediately all the maidens tried tofort Xiang Li.

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "I happen to have a spirit thread that I had got from a trial in the past. This spirit thread is able to make a dress as light as spirit. I have heard rumors that it can even be used to make dresses for the sentient spirit entities."

    Xiang Li was delighted as she pped her hands, "Really? What is the name of this spirit thread? Is it the Heavenly Silk Spirit Threads?"

    "It is precisely that!" Ling Feiyue nodded with a smile.

    Xiang Li was gasping, "Give me! Xiang Li is now so happy! Hehe!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Sure! Let me go and take it for you. In the meantime, please take a look around first!"

    After some time, everyone wasughing jovially as they dressed themselves up for many hours on end.

    Suddenly Ling Feiyue whispered to everyone, "There is a secret passage here to the bathroom. Shall we go there?"

    "Without informing Ji Yuan?" Bai Qianfeng asked curiously.

    "Do we want him to follow us?" Little Princess asked with a wryly smile.

    "He is already lecherous enough. What if he decides to follow us? I suggest we go secretly!" Xue Qianxue was only interested in soaking in the baths for the next couple of hours. She had definitely never tried the baths of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and was quite eager to visit it.

    Ling Feiyue said to Xiang Li with a wry smile, "Don''t tell him ande with us on the sly."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Alright!"

    As Xiang Li is an extraordinary sentient spirit entity, she is actually able to depart from Yuan Ji''s soul sea for a considerable period of time as well as able to depart for an infinite distance as long as she had the spiritual force to sustain herself. She currently has plenty of it now because Yuan Ji had provided her with a great deal of spiritual force since he is a saint level cultivator.

    -<sub> </sub>

    -

    -

    While Yuan Ji was outside and roaming the hallways of the inner pce, he was quite startled to see all the male cultivators were all walking around with a beardless look.

    "What the heck is going on here?!" He waspletely astonished.

    He stopped one of the cultivators to ask what had happened. Obviously this cultivator was not a golden celestial and he would not have possibly lost his beard.

    "Dark Lord Ji Yuan, my humble respect to you. May your luminous light lit¡­"

    Yuan Ji quickly interrupted him, "There is no need to greet me like this. What is going on around here? Why are all the male cultivators beardless?"

    The cultivator answered rather sheepishly, "Our patriarch elders say that it is a great dishonor for us to have beards while our new Dark Lord is going around beardless. Therefore our patriarch elders order us all to shave from this day onward."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Suddenly everyone had be beardless and ugly!

    Yuan Ji really did not know whether tough or cry.

    He was actually only trying to provoke them not tough at his beardless self but in the end, the patriarch elders had actually ordered everyone to shave off their beards.

    He rubbed his chin before he chuckled aloud. He soon thought of a logical deduction.

    "Because the three patriarch elders are thinking of shaving their beards but they are also afraid that they will be mocked by the sect prot¨¦g¨¦s therefore they have decided to make use of me as an excuse to order everyone to shave. This move is actually quite brilliant."

    Then he rolled his eyes at the hallway that led to Ling Feiyue''s inner pce and smiled to the cultivator. "Can you help me to bring something for the three patriarch elders? Chen Yi, Du Dong and Fu Mantian."

    "Alright. I will definitely obey Dark Lord''s biddings." The cultivator answered without any hesitation.

    Yuan Ji smiled as he gave the cultivator a warm pat.

    He had suddenly remembered that Xia Jiajia had given him some special pills and today he would be giving it to them.

    So he smiled to the cultivator, "Give one pill to each of the elder and say that it is from my heartfelt gratitude to them for their awesome hospitality. Tell them to take it only after they have shaved their beards and also to remember to wash their faces with alcohol afterward. By doing so, they can concentrate all the profound strength of their beards into their soul sea and they will be reaping the same benefits as I."

    Yea. Same benefits as I. Beardless forever.

    The cultivator acknowledged the instructions before he asked with a timid voice, "I wonder if Dark Lord can give me a reward for handling this task?"

    Yuan Jiughed as he took out another pill. "This one is for you then. Haha. You shall have the same awesome benefit as the patriarch elders."

    When the cultivator saw that he was receiving the same reward as the patriarch elders, he was so excited that he was gratefully thanking Yuan Ji nonstop.

    "Go now." Yuan Ji smiled to him as he gave him another warm pat.

    As he watched the cultivator walked away, he began to shake his head and sighed softly. "s. Why am I so kind to the others to allow them to reap the same benefits as I? I can already imagining their hot tears when they are receiving my pills."

    All of a sudden a lovelydy had appeared in the hallway and she was smiling in his direction.

    Yuan Ji had naturally recognized her as Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui so he quickly returned a hand gesture politely in her direction.

    But to his surprise, she had actually walked in his direction and said politely. "Saint Ji Yuan or should I address you as Dark Lord Ji Yuan from now on? Are you free to have a little chat?"

    Yuan Ji was a little surprised at her request so he asked curiously, "The oue of the discussion is out?"

    Ling Tianshui smiled, "Not yet. We are still debating over it and there will still be another round of discussion."

    Yuan Ji nodded. "Sure. I am free now."

    p "Let''s go to my inner pce for a little chat then. I have some good wines there." Ling Tianshui winked at him.</anda>

    Yuan Ji gulped at the loveliness of her face, the beautiful curve of her body and her perky butt before he said. "This isn''t such a good idea, am I right? I may disturb your other half."

    Ling Tianshui smiled with her bright eyes on him, "I don''t have a dual cultivation partner so I am staying alone. I have some cultivation questions to enquiry from you so I wonder if you are able to help me?"

    Yuan Ji immediately thought. She must be joking with me, am I right? I know nuts about any profound arts except for profound sword arts.

    But when he noticed that her butt was so smooth that she appeared not to be wearing anything inside and he could even see her perky boobs from the opening of her bodice, he immediately chuckled. "Sure, let''s go! Haha. I will be d to be of help."

 Chapter 145 Ling Tianshui (2)

    When Yuan Ji was with Ling Tianshui in her inner pce, he saw that her ce was actually quite beautiful.

    Ling Tianshui said to her prot¨¦g¨¦s, "I have something to discuss with Dark Lord Ji Yuan here. Don''te in unless I have willed it."

    The many prot¨¦g¨¦s immediately acknowledged her instructions and hastily left the inner hall.

    The minute that Yuan Ji had entered this inner hall, he was startled by a beautiful painting that had a magnificent air around it; it was a handsome bearded cultivator who was holding his long beard and he had a long sword in front of him as he stood on the edge of the cliff.

    Why does this painting looks so familiar to him?

    Ling Tianshui immediately chuckled, "So how do you think of this painting? This name of this painting is the ''Mighty Sword Saint Ji Yuan atop of the World, trampling his ultimate victory over his foes''.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "This must be a most expensive painting."

    Ling Tianshui nodded, "It certainly is. It was painted by the number one painter in the Deste Celestial Fraternity who had recently passed away. Saint Xiao Muhan. Have you heard of him?"

    Yuan Ji could only nod. Who has never heard of Saint Xiao Muhan? His painting is priceless and every single one is a master piece. Only he can bring the life out of the paintings. Therefore this ''Mighty Sword Saint Ji Yuan atop of the World, trampling his ultimate victory over his foes'' is truly a magnificent piece of work.

    Moreover they are also good friends.

    The Two Great Brushes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity refers to the Great Poet Ji Yuan and the Great Painter Xiao Muhan.

    He had heard that his friend Saint Xiao Muhan had painted hisst painting using him as a tribute to their friendship. And thisst painting of his was sold for over a hundred thousand high grade spirit stones to an unknown buyer.

    It turned out that his friend''sst painting was actually in Ling Tianshui''s hands!

    Ling Tianshui sighed softly, "I had even used several rare heavenly relics as a price in additional to the hundred thousand high grade spirit stones that I had paid."

    Yuan Ji managed a weak smile, "Well, I didn''t know you are such a fan of mine. Haha."

    "I actually have the intention to sell this painting when Sword Saint Ji Yuan can be a saint one day. To think that he is now a Great Saint. Then I can have several times on my returns in my investment." Ling Tianshui said slowly.

    Yuan Ji was cursing her silently. The rich will only get richer. There is no justice in the world¡­

    But he returned a nonchnt smile, "That is good. You are rich now."

    But Ling Tianshui was suddenly sighing deeply, "Unfortunately, ever since the Sword Saint Ji Yuan has be Sword Demon Ji Yuan, the value of the painting has plummeted greatly. You must know that the unorthodox fraternity has no appreciation of the arts and I can''t sell it to anyone now."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    I don''t have a hundred thousand high grade spirit stones to pay for your losses¡­

    Why did I have toe here in the first ce¡­

    If I know that this is a trap, I would never havee with to her inner pce¡­

    Ling Tianshui sighed, "Moreover look at this painting and you now. The two of you look so different now. The former Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now without his beard. Do you think that this painting is worth anything now?"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "At least this painting is still from the hands of Saint Xiao Muhan. It is not exactlypletely worthless."

    Ling Tianshui turned to him with a smile, "Even though I am a great saintess, it is quite difficult for me to force you to repay me for my losses, am I right to say so?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Not necessary if you have the Six Realms Divine Art."

    Ling Tianshui chuckled. "I do know but we will only end up injuring each other. Moreover you are my guest and didn''t I say that I will be treating you some good wines?"

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly as he rolled his eyes, "Right¡­"

    With a quick look, he had already nned all his possible escape paths.

    "Come, sit down here." Ling Tianshui chuckled softly as she took out two bottles of wine from a shelf. "You are in for a great treat. This is a five hundred year old Spirit Wine and it also has a beautiful name. The Finger of Death. One sip and you will feel that your soul will be lifted up like you have died."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Why don''t you call this wine the Death''s Spell instead? He cursed silently.

    "And this wine is called the ''Hovering around the Death''s Door Exit''." Ling Tianshui chuckled lightly as she winked at him.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Why did I have toe here in the first ce¡­

    But when he rolled his eyes and saw her perky thin bodice, he sighed sadly. Ji Yuan, why are you so easily tempted?

    Ling Tianshui chuckled, "So what are you waiting for? You are sampling the wines? Will a Great Saint be afraid of poisons?"

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes to look at the aromatic wines in front of him. It was extremely tempting to him.

    After fighting with his heart demons for a blink of an eye, he picked up the two wines to sample it.

    He was soon astonished!

    Both wines really taste very good!

    And he felt his libido going up too!

    "Is it good?" Ling Tianshui lit a gentle smile. "These two wines are really very precious."

    Yuan Ji replied very honestly, "Yelp. This is really good stuff. You''re not drinking?"

    Ling Tianshui rolled her lovely golden eyes, "It''s too strong for me. I am a bad drinker."

    Yuan Jiughed, "Will a great saintess be drunk?"

    Ling Tianshui smiled, "You don''t purge such good wines straightaway, do you? It will be such a waste."

    Yuan Jiughed, "True, true. The most wondrous part of drinking wines is to get high by it. What the point of drinking wines when it is purged out immediately? Isn''t it the same as drinking water?"

    Ling Tianshui nodded before she averted her gentle eyes. "I have some questions on cultivation to ask of you."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly; he had almost totally forgotten about it but he quickly replied, "Please don''t be a stranger."

    "My lightning tribtion is actually a Three-Stage Silver Lightning Tribtion. After much difficulty, I had finally ovee it to be a great saintess. How did you manage to ovee the deadly Nine-Stage Purple Lightning Tribtion?" Ling Tianshui said as she looked at him with great earnest.

    She added quietly, "I was there when my niece took her Three-Stage Lightning Tribtion too. She had barely ovee it to be a great saintess. How is it possible for her to ovee the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning? I find it so hard to believe. Moreover, only a few individuals will have the fortuitous luck to encounter one and they are all have the potential to ascend as immortals."

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly.

    I can''t tell her that I have ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion with the help of the profound treasures of my Qianxue and Feiyue. This will be so embarrassing¡­

    When Yuan Ji, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had taken the Purple Lightning Tribtion, they had literally used up plenty of cultivation resources, divine pills, profound treasures and evenbine their profound arts together just to survive through it. It was an experience that Yuan Ji would not want to try again.

    He almost wanted to say to her; if you are rich enough and have enough profound treasures, you can survive through anything.

    But he decided to keep his mouth shut and said instead. "Mm, I almost die during my Lightning Tribtion haha. At that time, I was only an initial tier saint. Mortal-step to be exact. Haha."

    Ling Tianshui covered her mouth as she gasped in disbelief. "How is it possible? I have never heard of anyone experiencing their Lightning Tribtion while they are at the initial saint level."

    "I guess it is because I have umted a lot of good karma when I am roaming the fraternity." Yuan Ji said with a straight face.

    "Like?" Ling Tianshui immediately asked.

    "When I saw Ascend Celestials getting bullied by the others, I will help them." Yuan Ji said when he had thought of Li Ye. "When I saw fishes that were out of the waters, I always stop to help them to get back into the waters. When I saw an injured spirit fox by the roadside, I stopped to help too. Do you see the nine-tail spirit fox that is with me? That is Xiaobai and is the spirit fox that I had stopped to help."

    And I helped Qianxue at that time when she needed my love, he added silently.<sub> </sub>

    Ling Tianshui gasped softly, "You''re such a good man. I had always thought that you were a ruthless Sword Saint who killed more than necessary and just a good-for-nothing poet."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Is my reputation as a sword saint so bad? Well,pared to Fairy Ye Chengxi, I may be a little ruthless¡­

    I know that I am not as wealthy as my good friend Saint Xiao Muhan here who can produce money with his works but I have to run my sect while he is just a good-for-nothing freeloader in his own sect and he is so weak that any sixth realm cultivator can easily kill him. How can hepare to me?

    Ling Tianshui let go of a mncholy sigh. "I am only a mortal-step great saintess and I can''t seem to advance anymore. Even my niece has overtaken me in my cultivation realm. Even you, ate starter with poor cultivation resources have also overtaken me. I may have all the cultivation resources but I really find it hard to advance further. Do you have any advice for me?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "I don''t think I am able to help you in this aspect."

    This was an honest reply from him. Finally Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart +1.

    Ling Tianshui averted her eyes shyly before she put her fingers to her back to loosen her bodice down. "I really hope that Saint Ji Yuan can help me to do something about it."

    Ji Yuan''s eyes nearly popped out when her bodice dropped in front of him. "This¡­is¡­I don''t think that I can do anything about it¡­"

    "You have a high chance to be an immortal in the future. If you manage to find any cultivation resources that may be helpful to me or you think that you can help me in the future, I hope that you can lend me a helping hand. What do you think?" Ling Tianshui said shyly.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "You''re Feiyue''s aunt. We shouldn''t have any inappropriate rtionship."

    Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart +2.

    "I can assure you that no one will know about this matter. Our rtionship will be an absolute secret." Ling Tianshui smiled as she winked at him.

    "I can also assure you that I will I am quite good and moreover I have not touched a man for a long time." She had suddenly knelt down in front of him and was loosening his belt.

    She looked up with a beautiful smile at Yuan Ji. "You can do anything to me as long as you like it."

    Yuan Ji stammered, "We can''t¡­" And his hands were already feeling her bare back and at the same time, his trousers had also dropped.

    But she is really such a lovely and attractive maiden. It seems that beauty lie in their family¡­ (Yuan Ji''s Inner Demon +1)

    Moreover our affair will be an absolutely secret¡­ (Yuan Ji''s Inner Demon +2)

    I can do anything to her as long as I like it? (Yuan Ji''s Inner Demon +3)

    Xiang Li isn''t around now. So I can stop pretending to be a gentleman¡­  (Yuan Ji''s Inner Demon +4)

    I can now do the more perverse acts that I''ve been withholding¡­  (Yuan Ji''s Inner Demon +5)

    But what if this is a setup? (Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart +3)

    And what will future readers think of my life? They will think that I am just a lecherous old cultivator that thinks with my lower body¡­ (Yuan Ji''s Pure Heart +4)

    Ling Tianshui was suddenly gasping as she held his naked sword with her trembling fingers. "My lord, may I help you to clean?" She had a slight tremble when she saw that he waspletely hairless below.

    Her lovely golden eyes were now in a daze and her mouth was now curling¡­

    Yuan Ji immediately said with a sheepish look, "Go ahead!"

    It doesn''t matter what future readers think now because my Inner Demon now has more points than my pure heart. So buzz off those Pure Heart Readers and wee my Inner Demon Readers!

    -

    A few hourster, Yuan Ji with rosy cheeks was now loitering outside Ling Feiyue''s pce hall when Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Bai Qianxue and Xiang Li had opened the heavy doors.

    When Ling Feiyue saw the Yuan Ji was still waiting outside, she was giggling softly. "Waa, you''re still around. So sorry to keep you waiting!"

    Xue Qianxue held Yuan Ji''s arm, "Why is your face so red? Are you angry with us for taking so long?"

    Little Princess quickly added, "Thank you for waiting patiently for us."

    Xiang Li was now in her new dress. With the Heavenly Silk Spirit Threads, she can literally transform it into any dresses that she saw and even improvised upon it. "Look! Xiang Li has a new dress!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled gently, "Yea! Isn''t Xiang Li more beautiful now?"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Yea, she''s absolutely beautiful."

    Xiang Li was shyly looking at Yuan Ji and her eyes were beaming with joy; this is the first time that he has praised me as beautiful¡­

    Even though Yuan Ji was now surrounded by four peerless maidens but his heart was with the earlier encounter that he had with Ling Tianshui. He was already nning another visit to her on the sly.

    But he had a serious problem and that was he cannot let Xiang Li know or else he will be screwed¡­

    He had never expected that he would have such a great time with Ling Tianshui and he was secretly missing her already. But it seemed that this was going to be a one-time thing unless he could somehow tricked Xiang Li out of his soul sea for a lengthy period of time.

    "Ji Yuan, are you mad at us?"

    "Don''t be, alright?"

    "We won''t leave you alone the next time. This is a promise!"

    "We''re so sorry to make you wait here for so long, there won''t be next time!"

    Yuan Ji chuckled weakly, "I am not angry. It is good that you have more time together. I really don''t mind. Please trust me. I swear by my soul sea. Haha. So when is the next time that you will take my Xiang Li to do some sightseeing?"

    Xiang Li chuckled happily, "Really? I love to!"

    "We dare not anymore!"

    "You really look piss off¡­"

    "Yea, your cheeks are so red!"

    "We know that you are actually upset with us¡­"

    Yuan Ji stammered, "Nonsense! I was just drinking earlier¡­"

    "If you are not unhappy with us, why did you go drinking?"

    "Obviously you are upset with us¡­"

    "We promise you that there won''t be a next time¡­"

    "So sorry!"

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    When Bai Qianfeng was in Yuan Ji''s arms, there was a subtle unhappy look in her eyes. It was because she had been with Yuan Ji for a long time and she was sensitive to his scents. But now she was picking up the scent of another maiden that was on him.

    He was actually flirting with another maiden while we were away!

    All of a sudden she had bit Yuan Ji hard.

    "Ouch! Qianfeng, why did you bite me for?" Yuan Ji blinked his eyes as he looked at Bai Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly as she continued to bite him hard.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "Maybe Qianfeng misses our lord so much, that is why." The other maidens quickly defended her.

    Yuan Ji smiled awkwardly, "Maybe¡­" Somehow he knew that his game was up.

 Chapter 146 Ji Yuan, What Have You Done?

    When Ling Feiyue was at Ling Tianshui''s inner pce, the prot¨¦g¨¦s at the entrance were all saying to her. "Matriarch Moon Elder Ling says that she will see no visitors today¡­"

    Ling Feiyue frowned, "I am not a stranger to my aunt and we are as close as mother and daughter. When did I ever need an invitation to visit her citadel? Go away!"

    "But¡­but¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled gently, "No but¡­go away!"

    And she had stormed inside the inner pce as though this ce was her home.

    All the prot¨¦g¨¦s were helpless to stop her because she was the Dark Mistress and sect leader of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Who is able to stop her?

    Moreover Ling Feiyue was right. She have never needed an invitation before.

    A saintess muttered weakly to the rest of the prot¨¦g¨¦s after Ling Feiyue had entered the inner pce, "I will take responsibility for this¡­"

    When Ling Feiyue had entered the inner pce, she was startled to find the inner hall was in a mess.

    "What is going on here?" She gasped. It was as though a battle had taken ce here!

    The first thought thate to her mind was whether her aunt was alright and wondered if there was a pce coup by the infiltrators of the orthodox cultivators?

    She did not know that Yuan Ji and Ling Tianshui had been battling with each other all over the ce earlier.

    Ling Tianshui had hastily entered the inner hall in her loose robe and she looked a little daze as though she had just woken up.

    She quickly smiled, "My dear niece, what brings you here?" But she was secretly panicky; has her niece found out about her affair with Ji Yuan?

    "Umm, I juste to visit and to chat with you. I just want to say sorry that I''ve always been so reckless. But I am now back in one piece so don''t be angry with me anymore?" Ling Feiyue exined why she hade.

    Ling Tianshui smiled as she held onto her belly. "It''s alright. It is in the past now. I''m really d that you are back now. We can''t afford to lose our Dark Mistress at this point of time."

    She was now secretly cursing Ji Yuan because her womb was full of his stuff and her niece hade at a most awkward time. She had never expected him to be so awesome¡­

    Ling Feiyue gently smiled before she queried, "So I will have your support for him and Little Princess during your elders meeting?"

    Ling Tianshui smiled, "Of course."

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue was gasping when she saw a white stuff on top of Ling Tianshui''s hair top.

    "What''s wrong?" Ling Tianshui asked curiously.

    "Nothing. I just thought of something and I need to go now. Will my dear aunt be sad if I leave now?" Ling Feiyue asked with a flushed look. She had recognized what it was...

    "You are the Dark Mistress of our sect. You should settle your stuff first. We can always chat when you are free." Ling Tianshui smiled. Secretly, she was hoping that her niece would leave as soon as possible because she was trying very hard to hold onto the ''stuff'' between her legs.

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Alright then! I see you soon. Thanks for offering to help me! This is actually very important to me. If possible, please help me to persuade the other elders as well."

    When Ling Feiyue had left, Ling Tianshui was secretly relieved.  She had a most awkward and flushed look when the long streams of white stuff began to drip between her legs. "This Ji Yuan is really¡­taking advantage of me¡­I don''t believe my niece is still pure with him in hispany¡­"

    She suddenly had a flushed look when she had thought of Ji Yuan. "Our affair is our secret but it is also a dangerous affair."

    She had to admit that she was purposely seducing Ji Yuan earlier. When she saw that Ji Yuan was alone in the hallway of her niece''s citadel earlier, she had suddenly decided to find an excuse to talk to him.

    Actually she was slightly confused why she was suddenly seducing Ji Yuan.

    It was because she was afraid that Ji Yuan may harbor a grudge against her for mocking him for being a beardless cultivator.

    She was actually the first to mock him for being a beardless cultivator because she had owned a painting of his and now it was almost worthless. Therefore her attitude toward him was not entirely friendly even though Ling Feiyue was her niece.

    After his duel with Chen Yi, she had even led the elders to question him, hoping to expose him for making a fool out of the patriarch elders.

    But she had never expected that Ji Yuan would be such a monstrous genius with a perfect harmony celestial sword. She was totally rendered speechless.

    "His cultivation level is even higher than me. Even if I have plenty of profound treasures, can I stop him from seeking vendetta against me? Moreover my niece will be siding with him instead of me if there is a spat break out between us."

    So she decided to ''test'' Ji Yuan when she had encountered him along the hallway.

    When she heard the fast beating of his heart and saw his lecherous stares upon her, she knew that she had a chance to resolve their vendetta.

    Therefore she cordially invited him to her pce citadel for a visit and to have a little drink.

    She took the opportunity to test him by showing him her once priceless painting to test his reactions. To her utter surprise, Yuan Ji''s heart beat was still beating normally and shown no sight of irritation.<sub> </sub>

    So after exchanging a spat of words with him, she tested him further by offering him two bottles of wine that had an insulting ring around it, hoping to provoke him somehow.

    But other than his lecherous look on her, she could find no signs of angst on him.

    Then she had proceeded to ask him about his Lightning Tribtion and was shocked to hear that he had actually taken his Lightning Tribtion when he was only an initial saint.

    ? At this point, she did not think of him as just a monstrous genius but a cultivator who will be destined to be an immortal. She was so awed by his impressive achievement that she did something irrational. Instead of faking her seduction for him, she got seduced by his good looks and temper.

    What happened next was a whirlwind of passionate lovemaking and they had literally made a mess of the entire inner hall.

    She gently touched her burning flushed face as she remembered his light kisses on her cheeks. Her eyes were suddenly dreamy and she was fingering herself.

    "Will this be ourst?" Her eyes were mncholy. "He is my niece''s lord. I can''t¡­"

    All of a suddenly, she found out that she was starting to miss him. He was very honest with her when he had left her abode. But he promised that her that if he can be of help in the future, he will surely help her. All she needs is to ask him in the future.

    She was suddenly looking at the giant painting of him that was against the wall and wishing that this painting of Sword Saint Ji Yuan did not have a beard and she was imaging his beardless self in the painting...

    Actually she did not know that her actions were needless as Ji Yuan is someone that rarely bears grudges for pure insults. He had literally forgotten that she was the first one to insult him.

    Ling Tianshui knew how serious her beard insult was and when she had realized how formidable Ji Yuan really is, she was quite scared that she may have made a formidable enemy. She had literally made an enemy of a great saint and a potential immortal cultivator.

    Also Ji Yuan had a reputation for being a ruthless Sword Saint and the number of dead body counts in his hands was more than most of the orthodox cultivators. She did not know that those killed had touched his bottom line like threatening to raze his sect, molest his prot¨¦g¨¦s, threatening to dishonor his master and idental deaths due to duels.

    That was why she tried to gauge his amicable level but had irrationally overreacted and even surrendered herself to him¡­

    For the high ss cultivators, they took insults pretty seriously and because of one insult, they would be an enemy for life.

    But not Ji Yuan. It is because he is an uncouth cultivator that often insults the others endlessly and he also got his fair share of insults from many others. If he had a petty heart, his best friend Guo Tianming would have died a million times over for trying to insult him with his careless remarks.

    She did not know that the ''low ss'' cultivators often hurl personal insults against each other before a fight. Naturally when a ''low ss'' cultivators met a ''high ss'' cultivator with influential background, they dare not hurl insults lest they will bring troubles to their entire celestial n.

    But in the Five Heavens Peaks, Ji Yuan had literally hurled personal insults to all the sect leaders and elders for as long as he could remember. Sometimes he would get beaten up for it but at the end of the day, everyone would still get together to y a powerful deste monster, feast together and yes, continued their dung flinging insults.

    That was why Ji Yuan was never angry with these Five Heavens Peaks'' cultivators when they had tried to take over his Emperor Hall Sect. To him, it was just their boorish and uncultured behavior.

    -

    -

    -

    As Ling Feiyue left her aunt and patriarch elder Ling Tianshui''s citadel, she was smiling awkwardly. "Is my aunt hiding a man? She even uses such a heavy dose of perfume. Bute to think of this, my aunt has no dual cultivation partner for a long time. I wonder who is that lucky man? My aunt is so attractive that any man that can have her is really lucky. Maybe I should ask her the next time¡­"

    She was soon smiling happily. As long as her aunt was willing to support her, she no longer felt alone. But she was soon sighing heavily, "But the other four elders will be much harder to persuade¡­"

    All of a sudden she noticed that many of the male cultivators were now beardless so she stopped them to ask. "What is going on around here? Why are all of you beardless?"

    The beardless cultivators immediately answered awkwardly, "Reporting to our Dark Mistress, this is the instructions from the patriarch elders that we show our solidarity toward our new Dark Lord by shaving our beards."

    Ling Feiyue opened her eyes widely as she muttered, "What is going on around here? Howe I didn''t know about this?"

    If this order was given by the patriarch elders, it means that a majority of the patriarch elders had agreed to do so.

    The patriarch elders actually wielded considerable authority within the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and they indeed had the right to order them to shave.

    She muttered silently, "I got the feeling that they are tricked by Ji Yuan¡­"

    She shook her head with disbelief. These men had always prided their beards with extreme egos and were alwayspeting with each other to see who had the most beautiful beards. And now they had actually shaved their beautiful beards? She really found it really hard to believe.

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, it is considered to be a heresy if a woman is to insult the beard of a man. Even if the woman finds the beard ugly, she must not say it aloud.

    Suddenly all the men in her sect had now shaved off their beards and she was finding it a little difficult to identify everyone. And weird too.

    "I guess that I have to get use to their new look now¡­" Ling Feiyue was suddenly sighing. "Before the battle with the orthodox cultivators have started, the Spirit Blue Moon Sect will be aughing stock first."

    "What have you done to my sect, Ji Yuan¡­"

    Suddenly she was missing all the ugly beards that she had hated for many years¡­

    "Luckily shaved beards can be regrown. It is not as though they have eaten Xia Jiajia''s beardless divine pills. So this is actually reversible."

 Chapter 147 Dirty Affairs (1)

    A fleet of thirty profound ships were seen floating above an unknown mountain range, hidden away in the thick clouds.

    This great armada was actually consisted of the ships from six of the major orthodox ns; the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the Mystic Profound Pavilion, the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, the Great Inevitable Divine n, the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Iron Righteous n.

    The only missing major orthodox n was the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    However the other six major orthodox ns were not overtly concerned about the absence of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. It was because Saintess Fang Zhenfei was renowned for her non-interference in the affairs of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Now a force of thirty profound ships is a mighty force that can annihte any celestial n. Primary because none of the celestial ns can even muster that many profound ships in the first ce. Even the major orthodox ns only have 3-6 profound ships at the very most.

    It is because building one profound ship is extremely expensive and it will require dozens of heavenly relics to keep it afloat. And at least three to nine heaven-step heavenly relics are required to create the array core that can keep it afloat, depending on the profound ship size.

    At the same time these profound ships will be burning high grade spirit stones at a massive rate just to move it.

    That was why these thirty profound ships were now floating above the mountains and were not moving until the next destination could be determined.

    These profound ships were still anchored in the territories of the orthodox fraternity while waiting for their scouts to bring back strategic information about the Spirit Blue Moon Sect that they were attacking.

    And they had some pretty good news recently; none of the other four major unorthodox ns were going to side with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    And ording to their most reliable intelligence, the Spirit Blue Moon Sect only had onerge profound ship and two medium profound ships.

    Therefore the six major orthodox ns will have a clear domination over the skies. This will make their advance into the unorthodox fraternity far less risky.

    The six major orthodox ns had purposely flown their profound ships together to intimidate the unorthodox ns in a show of might.

    This strategy had worked all too well and it had caused many of the unorthodox ns to severe ties with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    At the start of the campaign, the support for Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue was actually quite high as many unorthodox cultivators had thought that what she had done at the Celestial Orthodox Sect was a p to the faces of the orthodox cultivators and this brought delight to the faces of the unorthodox cultivators.

    However when the six major orthodox ns hade knocking, many of the unorthodox cultivators were inconspicuous missing from their support for the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Two of the major unorthodox ns had even demanded that Ling Feiyue married their scions to receive some help from them.

    This caused the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to be ckmailed by their former allies and enemies.

    While the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the Mystic Profound Pavilion, the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Profound Heaven Sword Manor were busy destroying Little Princess'' secret citadels throughout the orthodox fraternity, they had received a good news that hade from the Great Inevitable Divine n; they would send in their full strength against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    It was because the Great Inevitable Divine n had their Eldest Young Master Zhan Long killed by Little Princess and Ji Yuan. Obviously the Great Inevitable Divine n was now out for blood.

    Through the reports of their scouts, they had heard that Little Princess and Ji Yuan were now at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and that Ji Yuan was even the new Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect!

    Now the Great Inevitable Divine n is the most powerful of the seven major orthodox ns and is closely allied with the Iron Righteous n, which is the second most powerful of the seven major orthodox ns. Theirbined strength is actually on par with the four other major orthodox ns.

    Suddenly the expedition against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect had doubled and this caused the number of profound ships to balloon from twenty to thirty.

    This was not a matter of the honor of the Celestial Orthodox Sect anymore but that of the Great Inevitable Divine n as well!

    Because of the size of their fleet, the six major orthodox ns needed more preparation time to gather their cultivators and the precious high grade spirit stones to power their profound ships.

    At this moment, there were five Lightning Eagles that were flying toward a profound ship with a white and golden hull. The figurehead of this beautiful profound hull had a maiden with six wings and this profound ship was the main profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    As the Lightning Eagles approached the deck, dozens of holy maidens were all bowing respectfully. It was because today their Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin had arrived with her four priestess protectors.

    On the deck were also dozens of cultivators from the other major orthodox ns. They had just finished a meeting together and they were now on their way back to their profound ships.

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong of the Great Inevitable Divine n happened to be on the deck when he saw a dazzling Zhao Songjin appearing right in front of him. Ever since his eldest brother Zhan Long was killed by Little Princess and Ji Yuan, he was now the official sessor to the future sect master position of the Great Inevitable Divine n.

    He gasped softly, "She is so beautiful¡­"

    A trusted aide immediately whispered to him, "I have heard of a rumor that Jin Yilong and Zhao Songjin is an item."

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhongughed discreetly, "As long as she isn''t married to anyone else, she is still a fair game to me. Moreover I am way better than Jin Yilong and also my good-for-nothing deceased older brother."

    His deceased brother Zhan Long was a middle mortal-step saint while he was a middle heaven-step saint. His talents and cultivation strength was above his older brother.

    As for Jin Yilong, he was only an initial saint and he seemed to be struck in his cultivation practice for a long time.

    Zhan Zhong had always thought that it was a miracle that the good-for-nothing Jin Yilong did not perish when he was attempting his seventh realm breakthrough.

    "I am a middle saint and so is Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin. We are morepatiblepared to that Jin Yilong." Zhan Zhong was smirking coldly. From this point onward, he was determined to have Zhao Songjin as his consort.

    His aide asked him curiously, "Second Young Master, you are not going after Xue Qianxue anymore?"

    Zhan Zhong sighed softly at the mention of Xue Qianxue. "Of course not! But she is a little hard to get."

    There was a burning hatred for Xue Qianxue. In the past, Xue Qianxue had rebuked him for being unromantic, bad at poems and openly insulted his bushy beard.

    If he cany his hands on Xue Qianxue, he will show her what a true man he really is! He quietly resolved to himself.

    Now that Xue Qianxue was captured by the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, he doubted that she was a chaste maiden anymore. When he had thought of this, he was extremely angry that numerous men from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect were probably saddling his goddess day and night now.

    Zhao Songjin was now kneeling in front of Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi''s door as she sought an audience with her.

    "Matriarch, your disciple Songjin is here to lend you my puny aid for the expedition against the unorthodox cultivators of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect." She said respectfully. "May I enter to speak with you?"

    Han Yuchi was startled as she quickly said from beyond the door, "Why are you here? Shouldn''t you be at the Holy Maiden Peaks?"<sub> </sub>

    Zhao Songjin replied respectfully, "I know that I was supposed to be defending our Holy Maiden Peaks but when I thought that Matriarch and many of our priestess elders will be risking your lives to fight against the unorthodox cultivators on the front line. How then can I allow myself to be in a safe position while my Matriarch is risking yourself for our sect? Therefore Songjin decides to join Matriarch in the fight as well as to repay the trust that Matriarch has ced in me."

    "Songjin, I have always trusted you. Don''t think too much about it. Why don''t you go back to the Holy Maiden Peaks first?"

    Zhao Songjin was quite startled that Han Yuchi did not ask her to enter inside but she dared not barge in or use her divine sense to pry. Therefore she politely said, "I have another matter to report. I have found out that the Evil Cultivation Pce may have a hideout nearby. We ought to take advantage of this opportunity to wipe them out."

    "I talk to youter, alright? I''m not feeling too well after the meeting earlier. After my rest, I will talk to you." Han Yuchi replied gently.

    "I will await Matriarch''s instructions then¡­" Zhao Songjin was feeling a little perplexed as she slowly turned around.

    Behind the heavy doors, Han Yuchi secretly heaved a soft sigh of relief.

    It was because Zhao Songjin had reallye at an inconvenient timing; at this moment she was naked in her bed and Jin Yilong was saddling her.

    Even when Zhao Songjin had left, Jin Yilong did not stop what he was doing and he continued to saddle her.

    Han Yuchi said in exasperation to him, "Do you want Songjin to know what we are doing? Why didn''t you stop when she had arrived?"

    Jin Yilong chuckled lightly, "You''re too lovely. I can''t stop."

    Han Yuchi returned a flushed look before she said quietly, "Please don''t let Songjin know about us. You''re supposed to be betrothed to her to cement your sect position."

    Jin Yilongughed, "What if I say I want the two of you to be my consorts?"

    Han Yuchi: ¡­

    Han Yuchi: ¡­

    Han Yuchi: ¡­

    She quickly sighed, "It is not possible between the two of us."

    "But we already have." Jin Yilong pointed out with a smile.

    Han Yuchi shot a cold gaze at him. Secretly she was startled that this Jin Yilong was really too daring. She had been thinking on how she could seduce him but he had actually made the first move.

    Jin Yilong smiled, "I will bear responsible for you. You will be one of my beloved consorts."

    Han Yuchi smiled bitterly, "You have better leave now. There is a secret passage behind me. Make sure no one knows that you havee. I don''t want Songjin to know about our rtionship, not ever."

    Jin Yilong smiled as he gave her ast tight embrace, "Alright. But I won''t give you up."

    Han Yuchi said hatefully to him, "You have better treated Songjin well in the future. You had already taken her chastity so you cannot let her down."

    Jin Yilongughed softly, "When I had taken her, she had already long lost her chastity."

    Han Yuchi was startled by this revtion. Then she had given her chastity to whom?

    When Jin Yilong had left, Han Yuchi began to stare nkly in the air. "What have I done¡­"

    She had suspected that Zhao Songjin had been secretly practicing an evil dual cultivation art that can weaken her dual cultivation partner. It was actually a no brainer deduction because the Evil Cultivation is known for their various evil dual cultivation arts.

    From her deduction, this may be a reason why Jin Yilong only had a single daughter in all these years.

    The higher cultivation realm a celestial is, it is more difficult for them to conceive. Therefore there are many celestials that have a lower cultivation realm celestial as their dual cultivation partner. However even then, it is still hard to conceive especially if one is a golden saint like Jin Yilong. Therefore in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, it is quitemon for the high level and influential celestials to have multiple consorts and concubines.

    But if Jin Yilong''s vitality had been weakened by the evil cultivation arts then it would be even harder for him to conceive with Zhao Songjin.

    Because she had suspected that Jin Yilong''s vitality had long been drained by Zhao Songjin on the sly, she had sought to secretly replenish Jin Yilong''s vitality that Zhao Songjin had secretly stolen.

    If there is a secret profound art that can do so, it is the Sacred Maiden Profound Art.

    Her n was simple enough; she would help Jin Yilong to get a child. Of course she would ensure that Jin Yilong did not use his new vitality to have other children. Therefore she had purposely ensured that only Zhao Songjin could reap the benefits by instructing her on the basic foundation of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art.

    The benefits of her Sacred Maiden Profound Arts to Jin Yilong will not be released unless he can copte with someone who has cultivated the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. In this case, the basic foundation of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art is actually enough.

    In short, she had specifically tailored this scheme so that Zhao Songjin would receive the most benefits.

    She sighed regretfully that Zhao Songjin was not able to master the Sacred Maiden Profound Art because she did not meet the requirements for it.

    The Sacred Maiden Profound Art has several sets of requirements. Firstly, the cultivator has to be a seventh realm saintess. Secondly, the first rank requires the cultivator to have a pure body to begin with before practicing. If not at the most they can only attain to the basic foundation rank and this is not even the first rank.

    But this was enough for Han Yuchi''s n. Because even the basic foundation rank will be sufficient enough to have a perfect union with her Sacred Maiden Profound Art and help Zhao Songjin to regain her fertility.

    But she had to pay a heavy price herself and that was to sacrifice her body to Jin Yilong in order that Zhao Songjin may have a sessor to take over the leadership position of the Mystic Profound Pavilion in the future.

    The reason why she had so painstaking nned this was because Zhao Songjin was actually her secret illegitimate daughter. At that time, when her master the previous Matriarch had discovered that she was with child, she had made her sworn upon her soul sea never to acknowledge Zhao Songjin as her daughter lest it would bring upon a scandal upon the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    The previous Matriarch was actually the one that had also appointed Xue Qianxue to be the seeding Sacred Maiden even though Han Yuchi was Xue Qianxue''s celestial teacher and master.

    But in secret Han Yuchi have always wanted to appoint Zhao Songjin as the Sacred Maiden.

    That was why over the years, she had been secretly grooming Zhao Songjin but to her disappointment she had discovered that this daughter of hers was actually a mole of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Needless to say, she could guess how her pure body had been taken.

    "Songjin, you have really disappointed me. Do you know that if you had kept to your station, I would still have many ways to promote you to the position of Sacred Maiden one day? But you have literally screwed yourself with your wanton ways."

    "I don''t know if you are still with the Evil Cultivation Pce or not but I hope you are not because the Sacred Maiden Profound Art that I had given you is a fake."

    She began to sigh heavily, "Even though I can condone you but I can''t allow the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to fall into the hands of the evil dual cultivators. This is the unbroken instructions of our past matriarchs and I cannot allow myself to be a sinner to our sect."

 Chapter 148 Dirty Affairs (2)

    As Zhao Songjin took her leave from her Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi, she began to walk to the upper deck with her four priestess protectors.

    All of a sudden, she heard a polite greeting from behind her and she saw a group of cultivators that carried the heraldry of the Great Inevitable Divine n.

    "Sacred Maiden Zhao." A handsome man with a bushy beard greeted her politely. "I''m Second Young Master Zhan Zhong. I happen to see you so I thought that Ie to exchange a greeting with you."

    Actually Zhao Songjin was quite annoyed that her train of thoughts had been interrupted as she was plotting against her Matriarch; she had conspired with Yin Wei to setup Han Yuchi but she was not even seeing her now.

    But when she saw that he was actually Second Young Master Zhan Zhong, her disapproving eyebrows soon changed to a delightful smile. "I have long heard of the renown of Second Young Master Zhan Zhong."

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong was also d that Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin seemed to have a good impression of him. So he quickly said. "I have long heard of the beautiful allure of Sacred Maiden Zhao. Today when I have finally met you, I have realized that you are more beautiful than any maidens that I have ever seen."

    Zhao Songjin smiled, "Really? So between Xue Qianxue and I, who is the more beautiful maiden?"

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong: ¡­

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong: ¡­

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong: ¡­

    He smiled weakly before saying with a straight face. "The beauty of Sacred Maiden Zhao far surpasses Xue Qianxue."

    When he had said that, all the cultivators on his side and even Zhao Songjin''s four priestess protectors were all rolling their eyes¡­

    Actually Zhao Songjin is really a beautiful maiden and she is definitely ranked among the top beauties. But the loveliness of Xue Qianxue is really too peerless and it is not just her beauty that made her a goddess maiden in the hearts of men. She exudes a lovely charm that can easily turned heads around and the alluring light that is on her is simply too bright.

    Zhao Songjin chuckled as she winked at him, "Really? I am really more beautiful than Xue Qianxue?"

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong had a brief hesitation before he smiled, "I swear by my soul sea that Sacred Maiden Zhao is indeed more beautiful than Xue Qianxue. Haha."

    Zhao Songjin smiled with great delight as she gasped softly, "You really know how to impress me."

    "It is the truth! Now that I have seen Sacred Maiden Zhao, I know that you are indeed the most beautiful." Second Young Master Zhan Zhong smiled as he continued to praise her.

    "Ah~ You are also the most handsome guy that I have ever seen." Zhao Songjin giggled softly as she lifted her fingers tough politely.

    "More handsome than Jin Yilong?" Second Young Master Zhan Zhong asked with a grin.

    Zhao Songjin: ¡­

    Zhao Songjin: ¡­

    Zhao Songjin: ¡­

    She cursed him silently. Jin Yilong is definitely more handsome. Your bushy beard is so ugly. Even your dead older brother is better looking than you.

    But she quickly smiled with a light nod, "Right. Your nobleness covers the heavens and the earth. If I am not wrong, one day you will even lead the major orthodox ns just like your father lord. Your air is just like a soaring dragon and I am really impressed by you."

    She stopped short of swearing by her soul sea.

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong however was all smiles and full of pride when he had heard her. He asked. "May I have the honor to invite Sacred Maiden Zhao to my profound ship for a visit?"

    Zhao Songjin pretended to avert her eyes shyly before she nodded. "It is my honor to visit your profound ship."

    With that she wasughing along with Second Young Master Zhan Zhong as they walked to their flying mounts.

    The details of the visit to Second Young Master Zhan Zhong''s profound ship were not important.

    As long as the two of them had the opportunity to be alone and away from their escorts, they began to kiss passionately and were carelessly touching each other.

    In no time, Zhan Zhong was banging Zhao Songjin wantonly.

    As he was banging her, he was thinking. "She is too easy. But she is also a top beauty that isparable to the worth of a major orthodox n. So that means that I can snatch her away from Jin Yilong and made her my consort?"

    While he was thinking of this, Zhao Songjin was secretly draining his vitality using her evil dual cultivation arts and she was thinking. "Nowadays I can''t drain much from Jin Yilong as his vitality is all messed up. As for Yin Wei, s, I will be lucky if he doesn''t drain me instead. Now this Zhan Zhong is really full of vitality."

    But in her heart, she had actually despised Zhan Zhong. But her recent adventure with Yin Wei had caused her yin essence to be erratic and she needed a victim.

    She actually had the intention to look for Jin Yilong after her visit to her Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi but when she saw Zhan Zhong making the first move on her, she decided to drain his vitality first by pretending to be seduced by him.

    In the hidden location of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, First Citadel Lord Yin Wei was now in a dark hall.

    This ce was spooky even by his standards.

    But he did not dare to be disrespectful as he greeted the dark figure in front of him who was surrounded by two alluring naked maidens who were all prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    An old man with dry wrinkled skin was sitting in a throne in front of him and he was donned in a ck robe.

    This old figure was actually the Evil Cultivation Master.

    Yin Wei is actually a peaked great saint and he is more than two thousand year old. As a peaked great saint, he almost has no fear of the other cultivators except for one and that is the Evil Cultivation Master.

    He actually had no idea how old his father was. Even though he was now a peaked great saint, he feared his father greatly. It was as though his father could kill him anytime he pleased.

    "Father, I have brought the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to you." Yin Wei said politely as he took out the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. "But third sister has lost all her citadels."<sub> </sub>

    The Evil Cultivation Master merely said in an eerie voice, "It is but a small price to pay for the Sacred Maiden Profound Art."

    As he spoke, he had raised his hand and the scroll that contained the Sacred Maiden Profound Art was snatched from Yin Wei''s hands.

    Yin Wei was somewhat startled by this disy. It was because his father had just disyed a formidable telekinesis snatching. With his profound animus on the scroll itself, it was impossible for anyone to perform a telekinesis snatching on him.

    He was thinking nervously, "Even though my father looks frail but he is still so formidable. It seems that my time of usurping the leadership is still too early."

    The Evil Cultivation Master took a look at the scroll and said, "How do you know if this Sacred Maiden Profound Art is the true copy?"

    Yin Wei smiled bitterly. Is this a trick question?

    He knew that this Sacred Maiden Profound Art was quite genuine because he had got some cultivators to test the basic foundation but it was hard to find a chaste saintess to practice the first rank.

    But if he replied that this Sacred Maiden Profound Art was genuine, his father may ask him if he had secretly retained a copy and may even question him how he had managed to validate it.

    He hesitated before replying, "Zhao Songjin had given me this copy. As soon as I had received it, I have made my way here."

    The Evil Cultivation Master nodded slightly before saying, "I have heard that one of your citadels is raided. Am I right?"

    Yin Wei nodded, "By Ji Yuan."

    At the mention of Ji Yuan, the Evil Cultivation Master had broken the tip of his throne as he stared coldly. "This Ji Yuan is like a cockroach. Find an opportunity to finish him off."

    "He won''t be alive for too long. The major orthodox ns are now attacking the Spirit Blue Moon Sect¡­"

    "I know." The Evil Cultivation Master interrupted coldly. Actually he was aware of all the information that Yin Wei was telling him.

    "Why did you allow Little Princess to be with Ji Yuan?" The Evil Cultivation stared with seething rage at Yin Wei.

    Yin Wei could feel a sudden suppression upon him and he could feel that the two naked maidens were also doing the same. These two naked maidens were all seventh realm great saintess!

    He began to stammer, "She has her own legs and I can''t stop her from going anywhere¡­"

    All of a sudden there was arge profound force in the shape of arge translucent palm that had suddenly in front of Yin Wei and he was suddenly smacked all the way to the entrance of the hall!

    The instant that Yin Wei saw therge translucent palm that was towering three times his size over him, he had already mustered all his profound defenses to receive the attack.

    But he had not expected that he would be smacked so easily and he was now lying on the ground with his golden blood sputtered on the ground!

    He was in disbelief. I am a great saint so is my father. Why is there still such a great disparity between us?

    He had of course recognized the profound attack as the Supreme Cloud Palm. It was a divine profound art that he had also mastered. But the disparity between them was just too great!

    The Evil Cultivation Master said coldly, "She is more important to me than you think. If she loses a hair then I shall make you pay heavily for it."

    Yin Wei was shocked. He had thought that his sister had fallen out of grace with their father because of her affair with Ji Yuan. Moreover their father had also agreed to his n of making use of the bases of Little Princess to gain Han Yuchi''s trust for Zhao Songjin so that the Evil Cultivation Pce will be able toy their hands on the Sacred Maiden Profound Art.

    "Now leave." The Evil Cultivation Master said coldly.

    Yin Wei smiled bitterly as he picked himself weakly. He was cursing his father in his heart as he left.

    After Yin Wei had left, one of the naked maidens asked the Evil Cultivation Master. "It isn''t like you to show sympathy to anyone even if they are your children. Everyone is a tool to you."

    "Little Princess has the pure yin body. Even if she has lost her chastity, she will still be able to pick up the Sacred Maiden Profound Art." The Evil Cultivation Master said coldly.

    All of a sudden he had destroyed the Sacred Maiden Profound Art that was in his hands by burning it with his profound energies. "This scroll is a fake." With just a nce earlier, he had already deciphered the entire scroll.

    The other alluring naked maiden nodded and asked. "Nothing can hide from master''s eyes."

    The other naked maiden lit a wry smile, "No one knows that our master is actually an immortal in this ugly shell. Shall we make a move for you?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master instead asked, "How is the Metamorph Project going?"

    "We have found traces of it in the deep deste abyss of the Nine Celestial Fraternity and we are now experimenting with it. I must say that we have somerge degree of sess with it."

    The Evil Cultivation Master slowly nodded before he added, "Xue Qianxue has already mastered the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the highest level. She may be my missing key to regain my immortal body in this realm. When that happens, there will be no cultivators that can stop me, no matter how numerous they are."

    With another cold smirk, "Even if the Great God Pangu is here, his profound strength will be restricted to the seventh realm. But for me, I will have my unrestricted ninth realm profound strength."

    One of the naked maidens said, "Shall I go to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to get Xue Qianxue for you? Maybe with some luck, I may even get Little Princess back for you."

    The Evil Cultivation Master slowly nodded, "Be very careful. The two of you are thest of our deste race in this realm now. If you cannot seed then don''t risk it. Over the years, we had already lost too many of our kind."

    The same naked alluring maiden lit a smile, "I have heard that Little Princess has always missed her mother consort. Don''t you think that it is time for her ''mother consort'' to make her appearances now?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master smiled coldly, "Then acknowledge this daughter of yours. Since you will be making a trip there, you don''t mind stepping on Ji Yuan to his death at the same time?"

    "I have always wanted to help you to kill him especially after he had dared to take away the chastity of my daughter. If I were not at the Nine Celestial Fraternity, I will surely help you to kill him."

    The other alluring naked maiden smiled, "That is right. Now that we''re back to serve our master, is there any foes that can stop us?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master frowned, "Don''t get too conceited yet. That is how so many of our kind had perished over the years."

    Then he raised his almost skeleton finger, "This body is still too weak. You stay here to supervise the Metamorph Project for me."

    The other alluring naked maiden bowed respectfully, "Yes, my master."

 Chapter 149 Dirty Affairs (3)

    After Zhao Songjin had spent the day with Zhan Zhong, she had spent the night with Jin Yilong.

    The next morning, she was smiling to Han Yuchi, "Matriarch Sacred Maiden, your Songjin misses you so much."

    Han Yuchi smiled, "I am actually d to see you but I will rather that you return to the Holy Maiden Peaks. This undertaking will be extremely dangerous."

    "I''m not afraid. It is my honor to fight alongside with you." Zhao Songjin smiled.

    Han Yuchi sighed quietly. At least this illegitimate daughter of mine is quite filial toward me. But I can''t acknowledge her as my daughter.

    But she said quietly, "Songjin, do you know that you have a sister?"

    Zhao Songjin was startled. "I have a sister? I didn''t know."

    Han Yuchi smiled, "Of course you don''t know about her. You are separated since birth."

    Zhao Songjin had a perplexed look. How did her matriarch know about this? She doesn''t care about her sister because she has never met her before.

    Han Yuchi sighed softly, "I hope that one day you will have a chance to be together with your sister again."

    Zhao Songjin rolled her eyes. To hell with this sister.

    She quickly smiled, "Matriarch, I have something to report to you. Do you remember that I have news of a hideout of the Evil Cultivation Pce nearby?"

    Han Yuchi nodded, "Is it a big hideout?"

    Zhao Songjin shook her head, "It is just a small hideout. A small force will be sufficient to destroy this hideout. Songjin is willing to lead a small force to get rid of this hideout. I feel that we don''t have to rm the other five major orthodox ns."

    Then she lowered her voice to whisper mysteriously, "Actually this hideout isn''t big at all but I have heard that there is a treasure trove of high grade heavenly relics in that ce. This may be useful to our sect."

    Han Yuchi gasped softly, "High grade heavenly relics?" This was indeed tempting.

    Heavenly relics are the most highly sought metals in the Celestial Realm. It is an extremely heavy metal that is ten times heavier than gold but is also lighter than air and it can suspend in the air. All divine swords are actually made from the high grade heavenly relics.

    It has the most unique properties because how can something be heavy and light at the same time? When the heavenly relic is moved, it is extremely heavy but when it is left alone, it will begin to suspend in mid-air, bing as light as air.

    That is the reason why it will also require a great deal of profound strength to wield a divine sword. A lowly cultivator may not be able to wield a divine sword like a proper sword as it is extremely heavy to move around.

    While heavenly relics can be found in the trials and in the deep mountains, there will be a small possibility for a heavenly relic to form whenever a golden celestial has failed to ascend to the Immortal Realm. "However there is one little problem." Zhao Songjin sighed softly. "And it may be a trap."

    Han Yuchi returned a perplexed look. "What is it?"

    "The leader of this hideout wishes to speak to you first before they are willing to surrender the high grade heavenly relics. They wish to secure your promise to spare them face to face and to give them a new mountain peak for them to rebuild their lives. If not, they will just throw the heavenly relics into the bottomless abyss." Zhao Songjin said quietly.

    Then she pretended to say with a concern tone, "But this may well be a trap and not worth the risk. If anything is to befall Matriarch then Songjin will feel very guilty."

    But Han Yuchi smiled instead, "This is reasonable. I will meet them face to face."

    -

    -

    -

    Ten winged griffon mounts carrying the saintesses of the Celestial Orthodox Sect had quickly descended upon a mountain peak.

    Two of the saintesses were Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin.

    A male cultivator who was not even a golden celestial stood at the ledge to greet them. "Our leader is waiting inside the cave but he will only see Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi alone."

    Zhao Songjin pretended to say, "Matriarch, this may be a trap. Don''t agree to it."

    But Han Yuchi coolly said, "Bring me inside."

    Then she turned to Zhao Songjin and the rest, "Wait for me here. I will be back shortly."

    Zhao Songjin knew that Han Yuchi will be baited by her because she had spent so many years with her and know that she is actually quite a trusting person.

    She was secretly thinking. "She is so gullible to believe me. When you are gone from this world, I will be the only leader of the Celestial Orthodox Sect. You shouldn''t me me. If you were me, you would have done the same too. But why is that I seem to have a sudden attachment to you?"

    Han Yuchi was now following the male cultivator into the cave.

    After she had followed him through the winding passages for a while, the male cultivator said to her. "We are here."

    Just as Han Yuchi was smiling at the male cultivator, the sight of a golden celestial that was in front of her wiped away all her smiles.

    "You are dismissed." Yin Wei said to the male cultivator who promptly left quickly.

    Han Yuchi was trembling lightly, "You! It is you!"

    Yin Wei was smiling, "Yuchi, how are you? Do you miss me?"

    Han Yuchi said hatefully, "Did you conspire with Zhao Songjin to trick me into this ce?"<sub> </sub>

    Yin Wei nodded. "You are too confident of yourself and that is why we are able to bait you here."

    "What do you want?" Han Yuchi said hatefully as she unsheathed her divine sword.

    "What do I want? I want to make you into my dual cultivation partner and make you disappear from the Celestial Orthodox Sect. In this way, my pawn will be the leader of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and I can control the Celestial Orthodox Sect." Yin Wei was smiling.

    "I saw that some of the saintesses that you have brought along here are actually quite lovely and it is such a pity for them to be so lonely in their beds."

    "But of course, none of them can bepared to you because only you have the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. With you as my dual cultivation partner, I will be stronger than the Evil Pce Master in no time." He added with a loud chuckle.

    Han Yuchi was trembling as she raised her sword at him, "Don''t you touch any of my prot¨¦g¨¦s! Especially Zhao Songjin!"

    Yin Weiughed coldly, "Are you dense or not? After what she had done to you, you are still able to forgive her? Tell you what. I have already taken her. She has been my dual cultivation partner for a long time!"

    All of a sudden Han Yuchi coughed out a bout of golden blood as the seething rage attacked her heart.

    "What? You cannot believe that your favorite core prot¨¦g¨¦ will turn out to be like this?" Yin Weiughed eerily.

    Han Yuchi had suddenly attacked Yin Wei, "You''re a beast of a man!" Golden lights began to flutter around her as she raised her profound strength.

    Yin Weiughed as he used his palms to block her sword. "You are not my match. Why do you think that I am baiting you toe alone here?"

    Han Yuchi was actually screaming with rage now, "Songjin is my daughter! How dare you vite her! You have already vited me in the past and you can''t even spare her. You are a beast of a man!"

    Yin Wei was also startled as he took a step back, "What did you say?"

    There was another soft gasp from the entrance of the passage; it hade from Zhao Songjin as she dropped her divine sword onto the ground.

    She had actually entered the cave to assist Yin Wei and had no intention of aiding Han Yuchi.

    But she had suddenly overheard Han Yuchi and she was trembling hard now.

    All of a sudden there was a stunned silence from the three of them¡­

    Yin Wei was still staring nkly when Zhao Songjin had suddenly picked and raised her sword to attack him!

    Yin Wei shouted angrily as he retaliated against Zhao Songjin, "You''re courting your own death! Even if you are my daughter, do you think that I will be lenient with you?"

    Zhao Songjin was naturally not Yin Wei''s match and she was struck with a heavy blow on her body!

    But she had suppressed her injuries as she threw several beaming projectiles against Yin Wei before she turned around to grab the hand of Han Yuchi.

    Yin Wei began to give chase immediately but with Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin fighting against him at the same time, it was hard for him to overwhelm them.

    Whenever he had an opportunity to injure Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin would use her body to shield for Han Yuchi; she really knew the strokes of the Evil Cultivation Pce all too well.

    "Songjin!" He shouted angrily. "You have dared to betray me!"

    As he burned his rage against Zhao Songjin, he had already dealt several crushing blows on her body.

    But as soon as he had almost reached the entrance, eight more saintesses had suddenly joined in battle on the side of Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin.

    This forced Yin Wei to give up the chase as he retreated deep into the cavern passage.

    "Don''t give chase anymore." Han Yuchi ordered her prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Han Yuchi was trembling as she held onto Zhao Songjin. "Songjin, are you alright?"

    Zhao Songjin was looking extremely pale. At the same time, she was trembling nonstop as she sobbed with uncontroble tears. "I¡­really¡­deserve death for all these¡­how can I be so foolish to set you up¡­I am so stupid¡­and so wanton¡­"

    Han Yuchi was also weeping, "Songjin, you won''t die. You are a golden saint. I have many miracle pills¡­please¡­all you need to do is to muster your willpower and you can live again¡­"

    The eight saintesses were all staring nkly. What was going on around here?

    It was true that Zhao Songjin may not die from her injuries but she had lost the will to live.

    Zhao Songjin smiled weakly as she took ast look at Han Yuchi. "I really don''t want to live anymore. It is so good¡­to know that throughout the years¡­you are always¡­with me. I was¡­too¡­greedy...for power¡­I have¡­a sister¡­" She had always thought that she was an orphan. When she had breathed herst, she wasforted that in this world she still had a mother and a sister that she had never met¡­

    Han Yuchi wept aloud with dripping tears. "Songjin¡­Songjin¡­Songjin¡­you can''t die yet. You still need to help me to take vengeance against Yin Wei¡­"

    One of the saintesses gasped with shock. "Sacred Maiden Songjin has no vital signs now¡­"

    Han Yuchi gathered her strength to say with trembling voice, "No, my dear Songjin won''t die. I can still transfer my Sacred Maiden Profound Art to you¡­"

    When the eight saintesses had heard that, they were all shocked.

    "But Matriarch, you will lose your Sacred Maiden Profound Art if you do so¡­"

    "This will affect your chance to be an immortal¡­"

    "Matriarch, you are putting your ascension at a risk¡­"

 Chapter 150 Pursue (1)

    Spirit Blue Moon Sect;

    The bright full moon was hanging over the mountain peak and it was extremely beautiful to look at.

    Little Princess was looking with great mncholy at the moon through the windows of her room when she had suddenly heard a knock at the door.

    This was already the seventh day that they had arrived at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and she had not found a chance to be with Ji Yuan alone. He was always with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue¡­

    "Ji Yuan?"

    "Come in. It isn''t locked."

    She was suddenly smiling.

    A lovely maiden with golden eyes had suddenly stepped into her room.

    Little Princess was suddenly rmed because the air of this lovely maiden was most extraordinary and she was suddenly wary of her.

    "Who are you?"

    This lovely maiden smiled as she took slow steps toward her. Her voice was sweet as she giggled, "Little Princess, don''t you remember your mother consort?"

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "My mother consort died when I was little. Stop your feigning or don''t me me for being impolite with you."

    "You are my daughter Yin Lingyun and you should have a cherry blossom mark on your lower belly, am I right? If you have the cherry blossom mark then you must be my daughter." The lovely maiden was smiling. "And I''m your mother consort, Lu Yinxuan. I have a celestial title too and that is the Sagess Alyssa."

    Little Princess was startled but she firmly said, "All these years you have never looked for me so why are you here now?"

    Secretly she was startled. It was because there were few people that know her true name. Not even her brothers know about her true name. Moreover how did she know that she had a cherry blossom mark?

    Lu Yinxuan smiled, "I''m naturally here to bring you back to the Evil Cultivation Pce. Your father the Evil Cultivation Master is waiting for you to return to the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Little Princess was startled, "You are from the Evil Cultivation Pce? Why is that I have never seen you before and you have never looked for me all these years?"

    "Is the reason important? Now that we are now united? Come back with me to the Evil Cultivation Pce." Lu Yinxuan lit a slow smile. "Your mother consort here misses you a lot. Finally we can be together again."

    As Lu Yinxuan took a step forward, Little Princess took a step backward.

    "What do you really want?" Little Princess said coldly. "And don''t take a step further anymore."

    Lu Yinxuan giggled softly, "Didn''t I state my intentions clear enough? Or you mean my other intentions?"

    Then she added with a slow smile. "It is actually simple enough. I want you to help me to capture Xue Qianxue. I can even promise you that if you are able to do so, your father the Evil Cultivation Master will even reward you handsomely and you can be in the next line of session."

    Little Princess was smiling now. "What if I want Yin Wei to be dead? Is it possible?"

    Lu Yinxuan giggled, "That is easy. If you want him to be dead, just let me know. I can crush him like an ant. Compare to you, he is of no consequences."

    Little Princess had a perplexed look, "Our sectw clearly states that there can be no infighting. Anyone that tries to kill the leadership will be branded a traitor."

    Lu Yinxuan chuckled, "Naturally I will be acting upon the will of the Evil Cultivation Master. Therefore there will be no breech of the sectw."

    "My daughter Lingyun, surely you are not thinking of betraying the Evil Cultivation Pce over the losses of three of your citadels? We can easily restore your former prestige. Tell you what, our objective is actually the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. This is something that is important to our Evil Cultivation Master. If you are able to obtain it for him, then you can have a lofty status within the Evil Cultivation Pce. Obtaining the secret manual is a little hard. Han Yuchi is not so foolish to trust even the new Sacred Maiden with it."

    Then she added with a grin. "Capturing Han Yuchi is also not easy because she is constantly surrounded by many high level cultivators. However Xue Qianxue is alone now, am I right? Moreover she is the only one that has mastered the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the ninth rank."

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "So your objective is actually Xue Qianxue?"

    Lu Yinxuan giggled, "Smart! And I am here to kill Ji Yuan too."

    "After so many years, my father still refuses to spare him?!" Little Princess was exasperated.

    "It is because this Ji Yuan did an unforgivable thing to you. Why are you concern about an ant?"

    Little Princess replied coldly, "On ount that you are my mother consort, please leave. I will pretend that I have never seen you. There is no way that I will return with you or to harm my Sister Qianxue. As for Ji Yuan, he is my lord now."

    Lu Yinxuan smiled coldly, "So you want to betray the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Little Princess replied, "The lives of my prot¨¦g¨¦s and friends cannot be so easily reced. Even if you were to give me ten citadels to rule, it is now pointless to me."

    Throughout the years, she had learnt to treasure many of her prot¨¦g¨¦s as more than just her servants. Their deaths had caused her great despair and she was clearly disappointed with the Evil Cultivation Pce from what had happened to them. In her mind now, both Yin Wei and Zhao Songjin must die to make reparations for the deaths of all her followers.

    The smiles that were on Lu Yinxuan hadpletely disappeared. "This decision is not for you to make. You are but our tool!"

    All of a sudden Lu Yinxuan had attacked Little Princess, turning her fingers into sharp ws!

    Little Princess had immediately raised her palms to receive the attack but she was immediately forced to take several steps back and she was gasping with shock. "Seventh realm great saintess¡­"

    Lu Yinxuan giggled, "You didn''t expect your mother consort to be a good-for-nothing in the Evil Cultivation Pce, do you?"

    As just as she was about to attack Little Princess again, a sword energy stroke had suddenly forced her to take several steps backward.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared through the window with a grin, "My Little Princess, do you need some help?"

    Both Lu Yinxuan and Little Princess were somewhat startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared. It was because they had their divine senses in a perimeter around them. So it was not possible for anyone to surprise them.

    But they did not know that Ji Yuan had been hiding for some time and he hadpletely stopped his heartbeat to conceal himself.<sub> </sub>

    "Ji Yuan, why are you here?" Little Princess was most astonished.

    "So you are Ji Yuan?" Lu Yinxuan stared at the handsome cultivator that was in front of her. "Where is your beard?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I found beards to be ugly nowadays so I had shaved my beard."

    Little Princess resisted the urge to chuckle. He had obviously lost his beard and yet he was trying to be righteous about it¡­

    "Hehe! Great! This will save me the trouble of looking for you. Today next year will be your death anniversary!" Lu Yinxuan had immediately attacked Ji Yuan.

    But to her surprise when her ws were upon Ji Yuan, his sword had shed against her ws and the two of them were scurried back at the same time.

    She gasped, "You are a great saint?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Therefore it is not so easy to kill me now."

    Just as Lu Yinxuan was shing a perplexed look at Ji Yuan, she was startled that a peerless maiden with silver hair had appeared behind her silently, giving her a startling fright.

    Just as she was about to attack the silver haired maiden, she had quickly gasped as she quickly retreated several steps back. "Abyssal Null Goddess! Why¡­why are you here?"

    The silver haired maiden was indeed Bai Qianfeng and she was saying coldly. "What is a lowly Sagess doing here?"

    In the Immortal Realm, there are four ranks of female immortals; Fairy, Sagess, Goddess and Great Goddess.

    To Bai Qianfeng, a Sagess was lowly in her eyes.

    Lu Yinxuan was suddenly looking extremely pale. This startled Ji Yuan and Little Princess.

    She said with great respect. "Honorable Goddess, we are of the same kind and we should be on the same side. Moreover I have a daughter in this realm and I am here to bring her back. Will you like to meet my master? You should know who he is. He will be d to have the Abyssal Null Goddess on his side¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng interrupted coldly, "I have no interest in your schemes. Go back to tell your master that Ji Yuan and Little Princess are both my properties. He and the others are not allowed to touch any of them. And that includes Xue Qianxue."

    Ji Yuan and Little Princess looked a little amused when Bai Qianfeng had said that they were her properties.

    They did not know that when Bai Qianfeng had said that they were her properties, it also means that they are under her protection and anyone that wants to deal with them will also have to deal with her first. This is how the deste immortals dictate their will on their own kind.

    Lu Yinxuan smiled weakly, "I will confer your will to my master."

    With that she had quickly fled.

    When Lu Yinxuan was gone, Bai Qianfeng had suddenly grabbed Ji Yuan. "Come!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Where are we going?"

    Little Princess called after them, "Where are you going?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Stay where you are first. We will be back shortly."

    After running for a while and out of the earshot from Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng whispered to Ji Yuan, "Naturally it is to kill her but we can''t let Little Princess know about it."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "You want to kill Little Princess'' mother?"

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "Not me. It is you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You are not joking with me, am I right?"

    <o>,m Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "I may have pulled a ruse to fool her into retreating. But she will soon have her suspicions. Therefore I need you to pursue her for a little while."</o>

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Is this necessary?"

    "This is our way. Any weakness will be taken advantage of. Now that I have openly dered my support for you and Little Princess, her master won''t be too pleased unless I can prove to them that I have the strength to protect the two of you."

    Then she smiled weakly, "And I don''t have."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Who is her master? The Evil Cultivation Master? You know him?"

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "Her master is a deste Great God. If we are in the Immortal Realm then he is above me in status. I am surprised that he is able to anchor himself in this ce. You must never, never fight him. Even if you are a peaked great saint, I can assure you that you won''t be a match for his immortal profound arts."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "If we bully his servant then won''t he seek reprisal against us then?"

    Bai Qianfeng took an amused look at him, "You seem to be in his kill list already. Why are you asking so many questions?"

    They had actually been hiding for some time before Lu Yinxuan had confronted Little Princess. Therefore Bai Qianfeng had already overheard that Lu Yinxuan and the Evil Cultivation Master had him in their kill list.

    Actually for the past several nights, Ji Yuan was actually not in Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue rooms. He had a tingling sense of danger and he was prowling around with Bai Qianfeng. This sense of uneasiness always happened whenever Ji Yuan felt that he was in danger. This sense of uneasiness was gained after he had quite a few close shave with death in the past.

    Because of this, he always hide a few trump cards and were overtly cautious. That was also the reason why he was unable to trust Xia Jiajia when he had met her again as Xia Jiaqing and even created some misunderstandings along the way.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he rubbed his chin with a bitter smile. "How on earth did I offend a deste immortal?"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes shyly, "How on earth did I ever involve myself with you is also a mystery¡­"

 Chapter 151 Pursue (2)

    Lu Yinxuan was flying on her Lightning Eagle when she had spotted Ji Yuan tailing behind her on a Spirit Crane.

    "He actually dares toe alone?"

    She was somewhat startled that Ji Yuan had actually dared toe alone. Her sharp eyes had also picked up a nine-tail spirit fox that was in his arms.

    Then a thoughte into her head. "This foolish cultivator did not know that my profound strength is equaled to a peaked great saintess. This is the best opportunity for me to get rid of this Ji Yuan. At least my mission will not be aplete failure."

    With this thought, she had quickly picked a mountain for her to do battle with Ji Yuan as she quickly descended onto the mountain top.

    Ji Yuan was quick to follow her and soon he was jumping onto the ground from the Spirit Crane.

    Lu Yinxuan was smiling, "You didn''t happen to fall in love with me, am I right? Why are you in such a hot pursue of me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He took a quick look at Bai Qianfeng as she leapt out of his arms before saying. "Erm, I am actually here to kill you."

    Lu Yinxuan smiled, "Do you really think that you are capable of doing so?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "I can try."

    Earlier Bai Qianfeng had told him while they were pursuing Lu Yinxuan. "You don''t have to kill her but you got to intimidate her hard enough so that she will not dare to belittle you. If you got whatever trump cards, please use it."

    Ji Yuan had asked her. "Have you thought of the possibility that I may get killed instead?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "With me around, don''t worry."

    "You know dead man can''t worry too, right?"

    Ji Yuan had raised his divine sword in front of him with his right hand as he said to Lu Yinxuan. "Little Princess is mine. I don''t care what are your reasons for wanting her back after what you had done to her but she is not going to be your tool. She is my consort."

    Lu Yinxuan giggled softly, "What bold words you have. I am starting to like this son-inw of mine now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Lu Yinxuan''s divine sense had suddenly alerted her to the divine sword that was in Ji Yuan''s hand. "You actually have a celestial sword? This may be a half-step celestial sword but it is nevertheless a celestial sword. This sword is given to you by the Abyssal Null Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to exin so he nodded. "Yea."

    Lu Yinxuan smiled as she shed her heaven-step divine sword. "Even in the Immortal Realm, celestial swords are extremely rare. Yet a mere celestial like you can actually possess one. However, unless you can achieve divine harmony with your celestial sword, it is extremely difficult to control your divine sword with just your profound strength alone. I''m sure that it must be weighing heavily in your arms, am I right?"

    Then with a swing of her arm, she had pointed her divine sword which was now glowing with a rainbow hue on its surface at Ji Yuan. "Look at me. I have already divine harmonized with my divine sword. Even though I do not have a celestial sword but the profound power of my sword exceeds yours. What''s more, I require less profound strength to wield my sword and I can even allocate my profound strength to use my other profound arts."

    With an alluring smile, she added. "Therefore the divine sword that is in my hand far exceeds the celestial sword that is in your hand. And after today, your celestial sword will no longer be in your hands but mine¡­"

    "Oh? It''s only a divine harmony, am I right?" Ji Yuan grinned as he disyed his perfect harmony with his celestial sword as two double halos lit his divine sword.

    Lu Yinxuan gasped with disbelief, "This¡­" It had taken her more than a thousand year to divine harmonize with her divine sword. As for perfect harmony, it was extremely difficult even for an immortal cultivator like her.

    This caused her confidence to be shaken a little.

    But she was so smiling. She is a peaked seventh realm great saintess. Her true cultivation strength is actually at the eighth realm cultivation level but it is being suppressed while she is in the Celestial Realm. Therefore she is actually stronger than most of the peaked great saintess.

    Although she cannot muster her eighth realm profound strength without risking a bacsh but she still has her superior eighth realm cultivation recovery rate which is not restricted. Therefore she can keep using her maximum profound strength and profound arts against Ji Yuan.

    In her mind, this Ji Yuan is already dead when he had decided to confront her alone.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was thinking. "Qianfeng has warned me not to underestimate her and I have to use all my trump cards against her. But she looks so frail like a bamboo¡­"

    Lu Yinxuan had suddenly attacked him with all her profound power and she had even disyed her most powerful profound art; as she swung her sword, a wave of white profound energies had also enveloped around her and the ground was burning with a wall of profound energies.

    The instant that Ji Yuan saw the profound attack, he was no longer hesitating anymore and he was using all his profound strength to disy his own profound arts; three perfect sword energies waves were instantly disyed by him and the instant his perfect sword energies waves had struck the ground, nine gushing sword energies were produced against the wall of profound energies.

    There was a thunderous outburst as the two titanic energies shed and the entire mountains appeared to be shaking.

    All of a sudden two beaming sword energies had struck Lu Yinxuan as their swords shed with each other.

    The first sword energy was neutralized by her protective animus but the second sword energy had struck her with such force that she was sent crashing onto the cliff behind her!

    Before she could recover, Ji Yuan was suddenly upon her as he raised his sword against her.

    Lu Yinxuan was startled at the reflexes that were disyed by Ji Yuan. How did he recover his profound strength so fast after using his profound art¡­

    But she was not able to think further because she had to lift her sword to block his sudden attack. At the same time she had lifted herself up to the cliff as she took evasive action for a counter attack.

    She smirked silently. You won''t be able to follow me up the cliff. My lightless profound art isn''t something that mere celestial cultivators can hope to attain even if you can spend thousands of years on it. Moreover you are too heavily muscled¡­

    All of a sudden she was stunned that Ji Yuan had shed high above her and had yelled aloud. "Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    She stared with disbelief. How¡­

    A bright profound light had suddenly shed from his sword as it rained down upon her.

    She did not evenplete her thoughts when the burst of pure profound energies had struck her, sending her to plummet with a thunderous impact onto the ground below!

    Even Bai Qianfeng was somewhat startled by Ji Yuan''s disy. She had thought that she may be forced to exert herself to help him if necessary but from the look of it, this seemed unnecessary now. In fact she was thinking. "I ask him not to show mercy but he is really too ruthless¡­"

    Lu Yinxuan was actually sobbing now after she was struck repeatedly by Ji Yuan in this manner. This was too much of a humiliation!

    She simply could not believe that Ji Yuan could muster his profound art again and again without a break. It was as though his recovery rate was actually higher than her.

    She did not know that ever since Ji Yuan has be a great saint, his recovery rate couple with his Natural Instincts is nowparable to an eighth realm cultivator. Moreover his sword energies attacks require very little of his profound strength since his profound art is not divine or supreme profound arts that require plenty of profound strength to use.

    He had basically used several cheap profound attacks bybining them into a single attack to neutralize his Lu Yinxuan''s most powerful profound attack and even had an upper hand before disying his most powerful profound attack, the ''Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon''.

    Barely had Lu Yinxuan managed to pick herself up, Ji Yuan had dropped from the height above as he condensed all his profound strength into his sword to make a powerful profound attack.

    She quickly raised her sword to defend herself but the profound power that was suddenly disyed by Ji Yuan far exceeded her own plus he had the advantage of the higher elevation that immediately caused his profound power to gain even more strength.

    There was a thunderous outburst around her before she fell down again as she coughed out several bouts of golden blood.<sub> </sub>

    As she rolled to the side with bleary eyes, Ji Yuan had justnded next to her and he had raised his sword again in the next instant.

    As he swung his sword again with all his profound strength, Lu Yinxuan had hastily picked herself up to deliver a burst of profound energies so overwhelming that Ji Yuan had coughed out blood as he was sent flying backward.

    This time round Lu Yinxuan had won but only because she was forced to use profound strength to the eighth realm level!

    She took weaken steps backward and she was weeping uncontrobly.

    Although Ji Yuan had been forced backward but he was quick enough to block most of her profound attack with his sword. With a celestial sword in his hand, it was difficult for Lu Yinxuan''s profound attack to overwhelm himpletely even if she had used such absurd power level.

    Ji Yuan was also injured as he staggered weakly because he was not protected by any defensive profound arts. "What is that attack?" He was quite startled that his opponent''s profound attack had suddenly increased by three times.

    "This is her trump card?"

    All of a sudden he noticed that Lu Yinxuan was sobbing on the ground.

    "She is crying? Why?" He was somewhat startled by it.

    Although Lu Yinxuan is a deste immortal cultivator but she had a weak will due to her years of being a submissive servant to the Evil Cultivation Master. She can bully the weak with inted ego but when she is being bullied, she will also quickly breakdown.

    She just could not believe that Ji Yuan would be this strong! Moreover he was not a peaked great saint yet!

    p "This deste immortal is somewhat weak?" Suddenly Ji Yuan was confused whether he should continue to attack her. It was because he did not want to kill Little Princess'' mother consort. He had disyed his very best because he had thought that a deste immortal would be very hard to deal with.</anda>

    Just as he was about to take a step toward Lu Yinxuan, several powerful sword energies had shed around him.

    Ji Yuan was startled that there were sword energies practitioners here and it hade from the cliff above.

    The sword energies were not particr powerful because it was released over a long distance. It was more like a warning.

    All of a sudden seven female cultivators in white had jumped from the cliff above and hadnded lightly in front of him!

    Ji Yuan was somewhat startled because the cliff was quite high and these seven female cultivators had barely used their profound animus to cushion their descent. Without a doubt, their lightless profound arts were all at an astonishing level and were not beneath him in any way!

    "Why are you bullying a maiden here?" The female cultivator that appears to be their leader was asking him.

    When Ji Yuan saw her face of this beautiful maiden that was speaking to him, he was somewhat startled. "Sacred Maiden Zhao, why are you here?"

    The beautiful maiden looked at him with her lovely golden eyes before smiling coldly, "Beardless old goat, you must be mistaken. If it is your trick of trying to tter me then I am afraid that you will be disappointed because I won''t be."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did she just scold me as a beardless old goat?

    Ji Yuan had suddenly raised his sword again because he saw that Lu Yinxuan was trying to flee. But before he could even take two steps forward, ''Zhao Songjin'' had raised her heaven-step divine sword and there were two golden lights that were suddenly upon him and this caused him to stumble forcefully backward.

    The leading maiden in white chuckled, "It seems that even with a celestial sword that is in your hand, it is as good as a piece of scrap metal in your hands."

    As she mocked Ji Yuan, the other six maidens behind her were allughing at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he stared nkly at ''Zhao Songjin''. Her sword strokes were a little too mysterious. All of a sudden he noticed that their attires were not from the Celestial Orthodox Sect. "Um, who are you?"

    The leading maiden pointed her golden sword at him, "You lecherous eunuch, fancy bullying a maiden in the wilderness here. It is your bad luck to meet us here¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her coldly, "I may be a little lecherous but I am definitely not a eunuch. Who are you calling a eunuch here?"

    The leading maidenughed with yful eyes, "If you are not a eunuch then why are you beardless then?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had shed his sword as he said coldly, "You can eat the wrong foods but you cannot say the wrong words! If you are not Zhao Songjin then who are you?"

    He had suddenly noticed that this ''Zhao Songjin'' looked somewhat different and had a pleasant demeanor unlike Zhao Songjin. On closer look, she indeed looked different from Zhao Songjin. It just that her voice was identical to Zhao Songjin plus she shared some resembles that caused Ji Yuan to think that she was Zhao Songjin.

    One of the maidens in whiteughed, "You can''t even recognize our Pce Mistress? You must be a beardless man that is still feeding on milk."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The leading maiden giggled, "Before I take away your life, let me tell you who I am so that you can die without any regrets. I''m Shui Qingqing the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce. This Pce Mistress today will make sure that your corpse will be left in the wilderness to be fed to the deste beasts."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. She sure looks like Zhao Songjin. If she is really the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce then I really got some shitty luck¡­

    The Water Melody Pce together with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and the Evil Cultivation Pce are known as the Three Heretic Pces. They have an almost mystical status in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and no cultivator will want to mess up with the Three Heretic Pces because it is the same as courting their own deaths.

    "And what is your name?" Shui Qingqing chuckled softly. "For you to have a celestial sword, you must be a somebody and not a nobody. Unfortunately for you, your bad deeds wille to an end today and your celestial sword will also belong to the Water Melody Pce from this day onward."

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly. He had wanted to use Ji Yuan from now onward since this name has be so notorious. If he tells her that he is Ji Yuan then he may end up adding one more enemy to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    So should I tell her that I am Ji Yuan or Yuan Ji?

    At the same time he was thinking on how to escape. It was because he got quite a bad injury from Lu Yinxuan''sst attack and he needed to find a ce to purge out her profound energies from his body first.

    It was a lucky thing that Bai Qianfeng had hidden herself before she was seen by the new intruders so all he needed to do was to focus on his own survival.

    There was no point exining to Shui Qingqing that he was actually the good guy.

    It is because in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the cultivators will often fight with one another to obtain a divine sword and moreover he has a celestial sword in his hands.

    Therefore he knew that Shui Qingqing was probably finding any excuses just toy her hands on his celestial sword.

 Chapter 152 The Dragon Cave (1)

    All of a sudden Lu Yinxuan had appeared on top of a cliff and she had used her sword to sh furiously against the cliff with all her profound power; this caused several huge boulders that weight several tons to fall down the cliff below where Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing were.

    This caused an unfortunate seventh realm saintess of the Water Melody Pce to be crashed under a huge boulder instantly by a huge boulder, killing her instantly as her head got crashed.

    Although a seventh realm cultivator is powerful in their profound power but no matter how a seventh realm cultivator is, the weight of these boulders falling upon them are impossible for them to destroy with their profound arts.

    One must know that if a cultivator inherent strength can never exceed their body mass. When profound power is generated, it is not real strength. Although the cultivators may destroy boulders but it did not mean that they cannot be crushed by weights.

    As Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing saw the falling boulders, they quickly made their evasive maneuvers but because they were too near to the ledge of the mountains, they were quickly forced to roll down the mountains as hundreds of falling boulders began to rain down the cliff.

    This is a mighty force that can kill any cultivators that are caught in its path!

    As Ji Yuan fell down to the deste mists below, he quickly disyed his lightless profound arts to evade the falling boulders while trying to keep to the edge of the mountain as much as possible.

    Shui Qingqing was also doing the same as she descended like an agile feather down the deste mists.

    They were both somewhat surprised by each other''s astonishing lightless profound art.

    After a while Ji Yuan spotted a ledge with his sharp eyes as he shouted to Shui Qingqing, "Move over here! There is a ledge!"

    Shui Qingqing had almost given up and was regretful that she would lose her life today but when she had heard Ji Yuan, she quickly flipped herself multiple times in mid-air toward Ji Yuan''s direction.

    Ji Yuan was the first one to reach the ledge while Shui Qingqing had missed the ledge as she was flipping blindly.

    All of a sudden a strong hand had caught her right wrist and had pulled her up to the ledge; it was Ji Yuan.

    Shui Qingqing was inhaling softly after she hadnded weakly on the ledge. Her countenance was extremely pale after she had fallen from a great height and she dreaded to think of her fate if she were to fall into the bottomless deste mists below.

    She stammered, "Thank you¡­why did you save me?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "How do you know that I didn''t save you to do something funny to you?"

    Shui Qingqing giggled, "A beardless old goat like you don''t have the guts to touch me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Qingqing inhaled softly before sighing heavily, "I didn''t think that the maiden that I had saved earlier will be so vicious. I guess that I had saved the wrong person."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Your real intention is my celestial sword, am I right? After we have returned to the surface, I will give you another chance to fight with me but in the meantime, no fighting along the way up the deste mists."

    "Who says I want your ugly sword? And who do you think I am?" Shui Qingqing was suddenly rebuking him.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Everyone will covet after a celestial sword. There is no exception."

    Shui Qingqing hummed coldly, "Then you have finally met one now. I am the exception."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This maiden can lie without even battling her eyelids. Impressive¡­

    Shui Qingqing was suddenly smiling. "So what is your name? Since you have saved me, I ought to remember your name."

    "Li Yuan." He replied. He did not use Ji Yuan or Yuan Ji. It was because he had suddenly decided that both names would not be a good idea to use.

    Shui Qingqing pondered for a while as she disyed a perplexed look. "I have never heard of this name before¡­you are definitely not a famous person¡­"

    Yuan Ji smiled weakly, "Of course I am not as famous as the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce."

    Shui Qingqing giggled, "Of course you aren''t."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    She is too shameless and thick skin¡­

    He asked, "Why is the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce here in these parts?"

    Shui Qingqing said excitingly, "I am naturally here to check the mountains in these parts for the major orthodox ns. I have heard that they are going to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect so I am thinking of lending them a helping hand."

    Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You are too righteous."

    Did she just tell me all her ns? She is too gullible¡­

    Shui Qingqing was suddenly looking mncholy, "Actually I have heard that Ji Yuan is in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect now. So I want toe to take a look."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Lucky I didn''t tell you that I''m Ji Yuan. Don''t tell me you wanna to kill me too? I can''t remember offending you¡­

    "Did he offend you or something." He asked weakly.

    Shui Qingqing turned to him and sighed, "A beardless old goat like you won''t understand."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Isn''t that why I am asking you?

    Then she had a faint smile as she averted her eyes shyly, "Do you know that Ji Yuan has the reputation of being the most beautiful bearded cultivator in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    "Well, he is also Sword Demon Ji Yuan now and an enemy of the orthodox fraternity now." Ji Yuan said with great sarcasm.

    Shui Qingqing shot him a cold look, "Don''t you dare to insult Ji Yuan or we aren''t friends from this point onward."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are we even friends in the first ce?

    "I don''t believe that he will kill Sword Saintess Yuluo. After all, someone with such beautiful beard like him surely must have a good heart. Do you agree with me or not?" Shui Qingqing had a slight flush as she asked Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan began to roll his eyes before saying bitterly, "You can''t judge a person by his beard."

    Shui Qingqing sounded a little angry, "That is because you are a beardless old goat and you are not even close to his league yet. That is why you are being envious of him."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. Yea right, I will be jealous of myself? I know that my beautiful beard is popr with the maidens but I didn''t know that even the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce will also be infatuated with my beautiful beard. s! Now I am starting to miss my beautiful beard again¡­

    But he quickly said, "I thought that you just say that you are here to help the major orthodox ns against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect but your idol is now at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. So whose side are you on?"

    Shui Qingqing replied without a single hesitation. "Naturally I am on the righteous side. As for Ji Yuan, I am sure that he may have some difficulties that he cannot share with anyone. Therefore I am going to ask him the reasons why and convince him to return to the righteous path. As long as he is willing to return to the righteous path, I will plead on his behalf to the major orthodox ns to give him a proper burial and ensure that his body is intact."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You are too nice." Ji Yuan muttered weakly.

    "Really?" Shui Qingqing was giggling. "What do you think that Ji Yuan first impression of me will be? I am actually quite nervous in meeting him for the first time."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he replied weakly, "He probably won''t have a good impression of you at all."

    "Hmph! Li Yuan, you beardless old goat. Are you envious of Ji Yuan?" Shui Qingqing hummed coldly as she stormed off.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly behind her, "I am only speaking the truth¡­"

    "Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!" Shui Qingqing had overheard him and she was now ignoring him.

    Ji Yuan said, "This ledge is quite narrow. Don''t move too hasty or you may fall down the cliff. If you do, I am afraid that I may not be able to save you a second time."

    "I don''t need you to save me!" Shui Qingqing replied coldly.

    As Ji Yuan walked behind her, he was actually thinking. "So she is really uninterested in my celestial sword? I was half-expecting her to attack me earlier by creating so many openings for her but she never did. But she sure is gullible. She had actually told me all her ns¡­this must be the first time that she is traveling in the fraternity¡­"

    Shui Qingqing was suddenly gasping, "Li Yuan,e over here! I''ve found a cave and this cave looks a little unusual."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly. How can a cave be unusual? All caves look alike to him¡­

    As Ji Yuan caught sight of the cave that was in front of him, he was a little startled. The entrance of the cave was shaped like the head of a monstrous dragon.

    He muttered weakly with a sheepish look, "You are right. This cave does look a little unusual."

    All of a sudden a nine-tail spirit fox had jumped from the steep cliff above and upon Ji Yuan!

    Shui Qingqing was startled when she saw the spirit fox. "Li Yuan! Watch out!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he caught hold of Bai Qianfeng. "It is alright. She''s my spirit fox."

    Bai Qianfeng was licking his fingers and she was cuddling herself in Ji Yuan''s embrace. I''m so d that you are alright¡­

    Shui Qingqing was startled, "This spirit fox is your contract spirit fox?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Yea! She is the best!"

 Chapter 153 The Dragon Cave (2)

    The entrance of the cave was shaped into a monstrous beautiful sculptured dragon mouth.

    Ji Yuan used his sword hilt to tap it gently before saying, "This is made of silver celestium stone stabs."

    Celestiums are the densest stones in the Celestial Realm. There are two types of celestiums. Silver celestiums which are white in color and gold celestiums which are golden in color. It is often used in the pces of the rich celestial ns and as treasury walls due to its ability to absorb shock.

    Gold celestiums are three times denser than silver celestiums and are often called the ''indestructible stone'' and are often used to seal off important passages. But at the same time, it is far more precious than silver celestiums and cost a 1000 times more than silver celestiums due to its scarcity.

    At the same time, silver and gold celestiums can also be refined into fine metals known as Pure Celestiums to be used in precious swords and divine swords.

    Shui Qingqing nodded, "This is man-made. But who will build something so grand below the deste mists?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Let''s ignore it and find a way up."

    "Are you a beardless chicken? We are going in together." Shui Qingqing shot a taunting look at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Who is a chicken? And you even call me a beardless chicken?

    "Listen." Ji Yuan frowned. "In my dictionary, there is no such word as fear¡­"

    Shui Qingqing interrupted him with a giggle, "Then let''s go in. Hurry!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I haven''t even finished speaking yet¡­"

    As they had entered the cavern, Shui Qingqing was giggling and was flickering her thumb as she made a ticking sound.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Can you stop making that sound? What if you alert a deste monster? Is this the first time that you are out in the fraternity?"

    There was a flush look on Shui Qingqing as she replied awkwardly. "How do you know that?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. Her reply was too honest¡­

    Then she added bashfully. "When I am nervous, I will flicker my thumb. Sorry about it. This is the first time that I am exploring the cave alone."

    "You''re not alone. I am here with you." Ji Yuan coolly said.

    "But you are not a real man, so that doesn''t count." Shui Qingqing smiled yfully.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am not a real man?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    Shui Qingqingughed, "Yea, that''s right! Because¡­"

    "Because I am a beardless old goat and a eunuch. I know." Ji Yuan helped her to continue.

    Her constant mocking of my beardless self is beginning to irritates me¡­

    Shui Qingqing was giggling jovially. "And plus you are injured and I may be the first that will be protecting youter."

    "Right¡­" Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. He just remembered that he had not purged out the profound energies that was afflicted on him by Lu Yinxuan. How the heck did her power level increase so rapidly earlier?

    He did not know that Lu Yinxuan had invoked her immortal profound strength in a bid to kill him. Although she did manage to deal a grievous injury on him but she had failed to kill him.

    After doing a quick check of the cave, they found out that the cave was vast and had many passages.

    All of a sudden Shui Qingqing pulled his arm to say. "Come and let me take a look at your injuries."

    Ji Yuan mocked her, "You don''t have to check. I am indeed injured and I can''t purge the profound energies that are afflicting me anytime soon. But if you can give me a week or so, I will recover. If you''re thinking of attacking me then you may be mistaken¡­"

    "Shut up and sit down first." Shui Qingqing rebuked him lightly as she felt his pulses.

    For some unknown reason, Ji Yuan had really sat down.

    "You won''t be able to help me." Ji Yuan frowned. "I''m afflicted by sword profound energies. Even a high level sword energies practitioner like myself can''t do a thing, there is little you can do for me. It is not something any internal divine profound art can do to help me. I have to use my sword energies to slowly neutralize it. But that process will take me one or two weeks¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Qingqing had pped him hard on his back and he could suddenly feel that the wanton energies that were within him hadpletely dissipated!

    Shui Qingqing inhaled softly and her eyes looked a little dazed. "Look! It is done!"

    Ji Yuan was somewhat startled as he felt his profound strength returning to him and he could feel the smooth flow of his profound energies. "Haha. I have really recovered. Thank you¡­"

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Shui Qingqing had dozed off with her fingers on her forehead as she sat in a meditating pose.

    "This¡­" Ji Yuan

    Bai Qianfeng whispered to his ears. "She had used her divine profound art on you and had gone into a deep sleep to recuperate. If I''m not wrong, this divine profound art of hers must have drained all her profound energies."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly. "Isn''t she a little too trusting..."

    A few hourster, Shui Qingqing had finally opened her dreamy eyes. "s, you are still around?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Thank you for your aid. After you have helped me, I should at least stay around for a while to keep watch over you."

    Shui Qingqing smiled righteously, "You had helped me when I was falling down earlier. This is really nothing at all."

    Ji Yuanughed. He was beginning to like this maiden for her frankness but he was also a little fearful for her because the fraternity was a treacherous ce and there will be many cultivators who will try to make use of her innocence.

    "What is the profound art that you had used on me earlier?" Ji Yuan asked her curiously.

    Shui Qingqing popped in a profound pill as she answered, "This is my Divine Exaltation Art. It is a¡­" Then she giggled for a while before she continued. "Actually I shouldn''t be sharing with you because you are not from my sect but on ount that you have protected me while I was invalid and because you are a friend, I can be a little gracious. This is actually a supreme profound art."

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded. "Really?"<sub> </sub>

    He had only known one supreme profound art so far and that was the True Sacred Saint Profound Art that Ling Feiyue was practicing.

    Profound arts are divided into several tiers; standard, superior, divine, supreme and miracle.

    Shui Qingqing nodded with beaming eyes, "But I am not so proficiency in it. Maybe one day when I have mastered to the highest level, it may even be a miracle art."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Miracle profound arts do not exist." Ji Yuan was frowning.

    He suddenly had a bad idea so he asked. "Heh. Since I''m your friend, you can tell me the characteristics of this profound art of yours?"

    Shui Qingqing lifted her finger to swing a big no in front of him. "It is my sect''s unique skill. Even if you are a friend of mine, I can''t tell you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. I thought that she will be gullible enough to tell me. At least, she still has somemon sense¡­

    "Since you are well now, why don''t we explore this cave?" Shui Qingqing.

    "What if I say no?" Ji Yuan made a feeble protest behind her.

    "Come." Shui Qingqing did not even bother to heed to his protest.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to look at Bai Qianfeng who pretended to sleep in his arms, not caring what his decisions will be.

    Xiang Li was giggling in his soul sea, "You should follow this pretty maiden."

    "Oh well¡­" Ji Yuan began to tail after Shui Qingqing. "On ount that you had just helped me¡­"

    Shui Qingqing had suddenly halted her steps as she inspected the passages before saying coolly, "This is so interesting. Do you see it?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "What is so interesting about these passages? I don''t see anything special about it."

    Shui Qingqing was also frowning but at him. "There are eight passages in here and it is arranged into the eight array celestial formation. I can sense the hidden arrays even from here. Did you sense it?"

    "No¡­" Ji Yuan replied rather sheepishly. Arrays and formations simply aren''t his forte.

    Shui Qingqing raised her fingers as she probed with her divine sense. "s. This celestial array is a little hard to break. It seems to be a highly advance array and one wrong step and we will be doomed inside."

    She paused to add. "You must know that this type of celestial array can slowly drain us of our profound energies and cause us to be drained inside. Even though we are all golden celestials but without spiritual energies, we are as good as the lowly cultivators and we will need food and water. Therefore, we need to find the life gate in order to advance."

    Ji Yuan said, "Since you know that we are facing an array, surely you can find the life gate easily?"

    Shui Qingqing furrowed her beautiful light eyebrows. "You must know that there are more than 3600 major celestial arrays, big and small. Moreover these celestial arrays can even evolve into other celestial arrays. Some of the celestial arrays even have an array or even multiple arrays within an array depending on the proficiency of the creator. Therefore it is not easy to identify the type of celestial arrays that we will be facing, much less find the life gate."

    Then she smiled bitterly at Ji Yuan, "If this is a celestial or immortal killing array and we have walked inside by ident then we may well doomed ourselves without even realizing it. Therefore I need some time to at least peel off the surface of this celestial array in order to find a clue."

    Ji Yuanughed, "This sounds soplex to me already. However I got a suggestion."

    "What is it?" Shui Qingqing was suddenly hopeful as she looked at him.

    "Let''s leave this ce and go up." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Shui Qingqing: ¡­

    Shui Qingqing: ¡­

    Shui Qingqing: ¡­

    "Hmph! You are just a beardless coward." She hummed at him.

    "It is better than getting ourselves killed. After all, I still have a long life to go." Ji Yuan replied weakly. Why am I struck with her? I don''t want to get myself killed for no reason at all¡­

    Shui Qingqing ignored Ji Yuan as she took out several profound treasures including a profoundpass. "I am going to spend some days and even months to find a way to break this celestial array. Why don''t you go to one side to meditate first?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt like fainting on the spot. I don''t have days or months to stay here with you¡­

    Moreover you may get your direction wrong and get us killed too¡­

    Shui Qingqing had suddenly taken out a manual and she was browsing it. "Let me see¡­"

    When Ji Yuan saw her taking out a manual to do ast minute search, he knew that her proficiency in arrays is just so and so. He was beginning to feel panicky¡­

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng hit his chest lightly with her paw and pointed to a fifth passage.

    Ji Yuan stared at Bai Qianfeng who divine whispered to his ears. "I can navigate this array even with my eyes close. This is actually an immortal array and is called the Sleeping Dragon Immortal Array. She won''t be able to break it."

    "Qingqing,e with me." Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning as he walked toward the fifth passage.

    This gave Shui Qingqing a startle. "Where are you going? I haven''t even find the way yet."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I happen to be a breaker of this immortal array. I have suddenly realized that this is actually the Sleeping Dragon Immortal Array and I know how to navigate us safe and sound through it."

    Shui Qingqing quickly flipped her manual, "Sleeping Dragon Immortal Array? Wait. Let me try to find the walkthrough¡­"

    But when she saw that Ji Yuan had already walked into the fifth passage, she panicky kept all her profound treasures except for the array manual as she hastily followed him. "Wait for me! Don''t leave me alone here¡­"

    As she caught up with Ji Yuan, she asked him curiously. "How did you know that this is an immortal array and not a celestial array?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "That is because I''m a genius."

    Both Bai Qianfeng and Xiang Li rolled their eyes when they had heard him.

 Chapter 154 The Dragon Cave (3)

    As Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing walked along the passage together, Shui Qingqing had suddenly turned to Ji Yuan to ask him. "Have you ever met Ji Yuan before?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Of course I have."

    Shui Qingqing disyed an excited look when she had heard him. "Really? How does he look like in real life? Does he really have the most beautiful beard in the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    Ji Yuan replied awkwardly, "He does have the most beautiful beard in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Well, used to anyway¡­

    Shui Qingqing inhaled softly. "That is good. He must be the most romantic man as well."

    Ji Yuan eximed with great sarcasm, "I happen to know that he is the most unromantic man."

    "Rubbish! Of course he is!" Shui Qingqing interrupted him with an unpleasant look. "He is known as the Great Poet Ji Yuan too. If he isn''t a romantic man then he won''t be able to write such excellent poems. How can an uncultured man like you ever know anything about poems?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan was rendered speechless by her. So he could only manage a weakughter.

    "Actually I do know about poems¡­" He finally decided to make his protest¡­

    Shui Qingqing giggled, "Stop pasting gold on your face. Your poems will never be as good as Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then she was suddenly sighing softly. "How is it possible for my idol to suddenly switch to the unorthodox side and has be the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect? Do you think it is because Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue has used some kind of a charm on him?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Ling Feiyue is indeed charming¡­"

    "I''m not asking you if she is charming or not. I''m saying if she has used a charm on Ji Yuan." Shui Qingqing shot him an annoyed look.

    Ji Yuan was already drooling when he had thought of Ling Feiyue. She is a truly a living charm, especially when she isn''t wearing anything¡­

    "Hmph! You men are all alike!" Shui Qingqing shot him an angry rebuke when she saw his expressions. "Everyone is just looking at the superficial beauty of the Four Great Celestial Beauties and the Two Beautiful Goddesses. You men are allcking in culture. True beauty lies with the inner soul."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he said, "Actually you are also considered to be a top beauty." It is the truth. Her features are definitely lovelier than Zhao Songjin and even her slender porcin legs are lovely to look at. He had even ''identally observed'' her pink panties when he was observing her butt through her short skirt earlier.

    "Really?" Shui Qingqing giggled when she had heard Ji Yuan and she was on cloud nine.

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Really. I can swear upon my soul sea."

    "Say. There are so many beautiful beards in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Why are you erm¡­picking on Ji Yuan?" He asked awkwardly.

    Shui Qingqing replied with a flush look. "I am not picking on him. I''m admiring him. In fact, I have admired his deeds and poems for a long time. Do you know that I have sneaked out so that I can have a chance to speak to him?"

    Ji Yuan returned her a weird look, "You are the pce mistress. Do you even need to sneak out? And why do you want to speak to him for?"

    Shui Qingqing said with great mncholy. "My Venerable Pce Mistress has forbidden me to go out, saying that the fraternity is a treacherous ce. She even says that all men are treacherous too, especially men that have no beards."

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes. This Venerable Pce Mistress seems to dislike men. She must have a painful past with the men¡­

    Then she let go off of a sigh. "My Venerable Pce Mistress has a strong dislike of Ji Yuan too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why is it that I can''t remember ever offending your Venerable Pce Mistress?!

    Shui Qingqing quickly said with a flushed look, "Please don''t misunderstand that I am in love with Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. Obviously you are¡­

    "It is just that I feel that Ji Yuan may be hoodwinked by Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and I am just trying to set him upon the righteous path again." Shui Qingqing looked extremely mncholy and her eyes had be bleary.

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly, "You should stay away from Ji Yuan. He is not a good man. Listen to your Venerable Pce Mistress. From what I can see, he won''t listen to you. He haspletely turned to the dark side."

    Shui Qingqing stared at him, "It is because you are envious of his achievements and his good looks."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and was about to protest but at thest minute he had decided to keep his mouth shut.

    After a while, they had reached a huge cavern. Again there were eight passages.

    Shui Qingqing gasped softly. "You are such a genius to bring us to this point. It seems that we are in the inner array now. Now it is going to be a little tricky to find the life gate¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng tapped Ji Yuan on his chest and pointed her paw to the first passage.

    Ji Yuan immediately grinned and said. "Follow me!"

    "But¡­but¡­we ought to take a little precaution¡­first¡­let me check¡­" Shui Qingqing protested weakly but she was already following him.

    "I really hope that you know where you are leading us. I don''t want to die in this ce with you." She called out after him.<sub> </sub>

    "Isn''t that good? We can die as a couple. Haha." Ji Yuanughed it off.

    As Ji Yuan was walking ahead, he failed to notice that Shui Qingqing was flushing shyly and she was pursing her lips.

    She muttered almost incoherently. "You''re too shameless. Who wants to be a couple with you¡­"

    Before long, they had reached arge cavern with white stone walls. There was a strong killing malevolent air in this cavern and they saw dozens of golden skeletons, presumably the skeleton remains of the golden celestials that were killed in this ce.

    At the end of this cavern were another eight more passages.

    "Watch out, my lord." Bai Qianfeng divine whispered into his ears.

    Ji Yuan instinctively lifted his sword and had blocked off a flying profound energies that was suddenly generated from the middle of the cavern. So sudden and strong was this flying profound energies that he was forced to take three steps back.

    He was slightly startled that his sword arm was trembling hard after the surprise profound energies attack. This was quite a strong profound energies attack and he dread to think what would happen if it hit them.

    Shui Qingqing was startled as she gasped when ''Li Yuan'' had blocked the surprise attack for her. "Thank you...I didn''t see iting¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Just follow me tight and walk behind me. One wrong step and we will trigger a trap in this ce. This ce has a hidden killing array."

    Shui Qingqing muttered, "Li Yuan, we are pretty lucky so far. I have a bad feeling about this ce. Why don''t we turn back now?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Don''t worry. Follow me."

    "Trust me." He said as he walked toward the third passage that was in this cavern.

    Shui Qingqing nodded nervously.

    Shui Qingqing hurried her pace to grab him by his arm as she shyly said. "I believe in you¡­"

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know where the traps'' trigger points were at; he was actually following Bai Qianfeng''s precise direction to avoid the deadly traps.

    Soon they had entered the third passage and had entered inside. The walls of this passage were white and were even moreplicated with many treacherous pitfalls and misleading dead ends.

    As these winding passages were not part of any arrays, Bai Qianfeng was not able to give Ji Yuan any help. Therefore Ji Yuan could only rely on his good sense of direction to find a way through. But at least this passage was the ''life gate'' and they were not in any imminent dangers.

    Even so, they could still feel the drain of their profound energies as they were now inside a massive formation array.

    After several hours of exploring, they hade into another cavern that had eight shimmering portals.

    "Which portal should we pick?" Shui Qingqing started to look at Ji Yuan and her eyes were full of idtry.

    This time even Bai Qianfeng had hesitated for a while before she pointed her paw at the seventh portal.

    She divined whispered to Ji Yuan, "This ce has a star shifting array. If I am not wrong, we will soon reach the array center."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he smiled to Shui Qingqing, "Follow me!"

    Shui Qingqing was totally lost now and she dutifully followed him. "I am afraid¡­"

    The shimmering portal soon took them to another cavern.

    In the middle of the cavern was a bright array and a beautiful silver long sword could be seen levitating in the array center. This beautiful silver long sword had a beautiful winged dragon adorned along its hilt.

    Scattered around the cavern were dozens of broken golden skeletons.

    They soon probed the silver sword with their divine senses and were startled to exim at the same time. "This is a full step celestial sword¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly. "All of them must have perished trying to obtain this celestial sword."

    Shui Qingqing nodded, "Men are always greedy to obtain treasures beyond their ability to handle."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Women as well. Who taught you all these?"

    Shui Qingqing giggled. "My Venerable Pce Mistress."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Well, I am not greedy to obtain this celestial sword."

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly divine whispered to Ji Yuan with a mncholy look. "My lord, please get this sword for me. It is very important to me. I can''t obtain this sword myself. The difficulty of this immortal array will increase if I am to approach it and it will also trigger a hidden immortal array. Therefore I can''t approach it with my current strength."

    Then she sighed. "But it will be highly dangerous for you. The array center has more than twenty attacking arrays. Never mind, it is just my foolish wish. If anything is to happen to my lord, Qianfeng will be extremely guilty¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly said as he stepped forward. "I will get this sword for you."

    Shui Qingqing gasped with pleasant surprise. "I thought you just say that you are not greedy to obtain this sword? Li Yuan, I appreciate this but this array seems to be a little too deadly for us to handle alone."

    Bai Qianfeng gasped as Ji Yuan had put her down gently before he had stepped forward.

    Ji Yuan turned to smile weakly at Shui Qingqing. "Actually¡­" He had wanted to tell her that he was actually talking to Bai Qianfeng but he could not exin himself.

    Bai Qianfeng was now panicky as she divine whispered in his ears, "My lord. Please forget about what I have said. Qianfeng doesn''t want the celestial sword anymore. Please don''t do anything foolish. I really don''t want the sword anymore¡­"

    After Ji Yuan had brandished his celestial sword, he took ast look at Bai Qianfeng as he said silently. "I have never forgotten that I have promised to do three things for you."

    When Shui Qingqing saw that Li Yuan had turned back to take a look, she was flushed. It was because she had misunderstood that he was going to obtain the celestial sword for her sake.

    So she quickly averted her eyes with great bashfulness and was muttering. "Please, you don''t have to¡­"

 Chapter 155 The Dragon Cave (4)

    Shui Qingqing gasped. "Li Yuan, are you sure about this? Let''s get out of this ce while we are still alive, alright?"

    She was now anxious for him.

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders as he grinned back. "As long as I can evade the array attacks then I will be alright so there is nothing to be worried about."

    He swung his sword arm first as he prepared himself to charge into the center of the array. It was because after he had blocked off the profound energies attack in the earlier cavern and was forced to take three steps back, he knew that the killing array here will only be more formidable and not lesser.

    He was a now great saint with a celestial sword in his hands and even he was not able to block off the array profound energies with ease. Therefore he knew that he had to fully focused his willpower into his reflexes.

    Without a word more, Ji Yuan had suddenly dashed toward the epicenter of the cavern where the celestial sword was!

    Both Shui Qingqing and Bai Qianfeng were both gasping silently, afraid that even their soft gasps would distract him.

    The instant that Ji Yuan had dashed into the invisible formation array, several profound energies had appeared around the hovering celestial sword to shoot at him.

    He quickly evaded past the profound energies but as he got nearer to the epicenter of this huge center, dozens of profound energies were now shooting at several weird angles around him!

    He had narrowly managed to evade all the attacks except for one which he used his sword to block it. However the attempt caused him to stagger five steps behind and this caused more profound energies beams to be generate in his direction!

    Ji Yuan dared not block or receive the profound energies beams anymore and he quickly flipped his body nimbly to avoid the profound energies beams which were shooting nonstop in his direction.

    Shui Qingqing and Bai Qianfeng could not believe what they were seeing as Ji Yuan disyed his swiftness and lightness profound art at the same time. If they were not seeing it, they really could not believe what they were seeing now; how could anyone evade these profound energies beams like he did?

    Ji Yuan was extra sensitive to the presence of profound energies because he was a sword energies practitioner with hundreds of years of practice. The instant that the profound energies beam was generated, he knew roughly where it would being from.

    Although there were dozens of profound energies beams shooting at him from all multiple angles, Ji Yuan was like a slippery flying snake that were evading left and right with astonishing speed.

    In no time he was inhaling heavily as he reached the epicenter of the array. He was safe now.

    "Whew! This isn''t easy at all." He had never evaded so wildly before and his entire body was now aching from over exerting himself. He was definitely not going to try it ever again. One mishap and he would be dead¡­

    It was a lucky thing that he had managed to reach the epicenter of the array just before his vital breath cycle had ended. It was because even though he just needed a single blink of an eye to recover his vital breath cycle but this would slow down his speed considerably and it would be fatal for him.

    He was smiling however as he thought. "It is a lucky thing that I have picked the Divine Heart Recite¡­" From this intricate heart form, he had actually mastered three profound arts; the Awakened Seventh Sense, Profound Energies Attunement and Three-in-One Reflex.

    Shui Qingqing and Bai Qianfeng were stunned that except for the one time that Ji Yuan had used his sword to block the profound energies beam, he had actually evaded the dozens of profound energies beams that were flying like a all around him.

    His amazing reflexes hadpletely stunned Shui Qingqing and Bai Qianfeng because they know that they were not able to evade the way that he did¡­

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the hovering celestial sword in front of him now. Even though he knew nuts about arrays but he knew that all arrays are always powered by heavenly relics and divine swords. For this celestial-step divine sword to be in the epicenter of the array, he knows that this divine sword was being used to support this immortal array.

    He did not reach out to take the celestial sword immediately even though he knew that he had the profound strength to wrest it from the immortal array.

    Rather he suddenly had an amusing thought as he took out a mortal-step divine sword that was given to him by Ling Feiyue after his duel with Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi. She had said to him, "You need another sword since you had broken the precious sword that I had given you."

    Inhaling deeply, he imbued the divine sword with his profound strength that was in his hand to match the aura strength of the hovering celestial sword before he switched the two divine swords in split second.

    Seeing that he had sessfully switched the two divine swords, he began to grin. This immortal array may still be useful in the future. Although it is now powered by a lesser divine sword but it is still nevertheless a powerful killing array.

    The new celestial sword that was in his hands were extremely heavy, almost doubled the weight of his own celestial sword.

    He turned toward to Bai Qianfeng to grin in her direction. Qianfeng, look! I have got you the celestial sword. I know that you had ended up destroying your celestial sword because of me but you don''t have to worry now, this is your new recement¡­

    When Shui Qingqing saw Ji Yuan grinning in her direction, she flushed even more shyly, not realizing that he was actually smiling to the nine-tail spirit fox instead of her.

    Ji Yuan was once again disying his astonishing reflexes as he dashed from the epicenter of the array again.

    Although this time his reflexes had slowed down by 30% due to the earlier exertions but the profound energies beams were weaker and less numerous than before. Therefore he had made it back to where Shui Qingqing was standing.

    The instant that he was back to the safe zone, Shui Qingqing had flown straight into his arms as she gasped. "You are too foolish! You really don''t have to get the celestial sword for me. You are just endangering yourself and why did you put a divine sword back into the array center for? Do you want to kill yourself?"

    As Ji Yuan had exhausted his vital breath, he was unable to answer her. He could only smile weakly at her while he was inhaling heavily. Although he could not speak but he could still say silently; Erm¡­I''m afraid that you have misunderstood. This celestial sword is for my Qianfeng and not for you¡­.

    Even Bai Qianfeng looked a little amused when she saw that Shui Qingqing had flown into Ji Yuan''s embrace¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to protest that he was only fetching the celestial sword for his Qianfeng, Shui Qingqing said to him. "It is not right for me to take a stranger''s sword. You have risked your own life for this celestial sword therefore you ought to keep it for your own use. Moreover¡­"

    She inhaled softly as she averted her eyes shyly. "Even if you can fetch the moon for me but my heart belongs to Ji Yuan. I am terribly sorry about it. You are a good man and I hope that you can understand it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then why are you in my embrace?

    Shui Qingqing inhaled mncholy, "Maybe if we have known each other earlier, I might have given you a chance but¡­"

    She looked up at him with woeful eyes. "But my heart cannot amodate two men. I do hope that you can understand. Even if he is going to be an enemy of the orthodox fraternity but I still hope that I can one day persuade him to leave Ling Feiyue and turn to the righteous path."

    She emphasized again. "You are really a good man. I''m really sorry¡­"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly with a perplexed look. She had given me two good man cards and had rejected me. But when did I say I am wooing her in the first ce?

    Shui Qingqing had really totally misunderstood that ''Li Yuan'' was trying to impress her and was attempting to woo her. Therefore she had made her heart known to him first.

    Ji Yuan could only mutter, "Erm¡­that is alright¡­I won''t take it to heart."

    Then she lit a faint smile. "Don''t be too sad alright? I can promise you that other than Ji Yuan, I may one day consider you seriously."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not sad at all¡­

    He quickly said, "Let us go back to the surface."

    Shui Qingqing nodded. "Yea. I don''t want to stay in this ce anymore."

    Bai Qianfeng divined whispered to Ji Yuan, "This maiden seems to be infatuated with you. Why don''t you tell her that you are Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. As he did not know any Divine Whispering Skill, he could not reply to Bai Qianfeng and he could only shake his head. This maiden was really too innocent and he did not want to hurt her in any way. Moreover she had also helped him to purge the wanton profound energies out of his body earlier, saving him two weeks of agonizing pain.

    Hourster, they had finally exited the dragon cave.<sub> </sub>

    It took them a few more hours to climb up the mountains before they could exit the deste mists.

    As they walked along a steep path, Ji Yuan could suddenly hear loud cries from the top.

    "Pce Mistress, we have finally found you¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked up and saw that it was the same group of female cultivators that were with Shui Qingqing earlier.

    Shui Qingqing took a forlorn look at him before she said ruefully. "I may be grounded for a long time for viting the rules of the Water Melody Pce. Moreover I had caused the deaths of my protectors due to my reckless behavior. If there is a next time, I hope to see you again. No matter what, we will always be friends."

    Ji Yuan nodded and said, "Yea, we are good friends."

    Shui Qingqing inhaled softly, "If you really want to win my heart, you ought to grow a beard then you will look more manly."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not going to try to win your heart and I can''t grow my beard anymore¡­

    "Li Yuan, I hope that you can be a hero and set yourself on the righteous path. It is not only for your own good but also for my sake, alright?" Shui Qingqing was suddenly looking with great mncholy at him.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I always have a righteous heart."

    Shui Qingqing nodded, "I really hope so¡­" Because this fraternity was the fraternity of the unorthodox cultivators. But as she knew that it was pointless to persuade him to change his alignment in such a short time, she did not want to force him.

    She had a final question for him before she left. "Where are you from? Your celestial n of origin I mean."

    Ji Yuan replied awkwardly, "Erm, I''m from the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Shui Qingqing was really startled. "The Emperor Hall Sect? The same sect as that idiot Yuan Ji that dares to challenge the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He replied weakly, "Yes, the same sect as that idiotic Yuan Ji."

    Shui Qingqing was smiling all of a sudden, "So you are an orthodox cultivator! I have thought that you are an unorthodox cultivator. Why are you in the territories of the unorthodox fraternity?"

    Ji Yuan lied, "I''m actually here to join the crusade against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect but I am lost. Haha."

    "Pce Mistress, we got to go now¡­" The female cultivators above them were urging their Pce Mistress.

    Shui Qingqing took another forlorn look at him before she rejoined her group. "Good bye, my friend¡­"

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly, "Good bye¡­"

    This maiden is really such an interesting maiden¡­

    When Shui Qingqing and her group were gone, he took out the celestial sword to give it to Bai Qianfeng who had now assumed her human form.

    "My lord, this gift is really precious to me." Bai Qianfeng was really very touched.

    Ji Yuan embraced her tightly, "Qianfeng, I have promised to do three things for you. I have not forgotten."

    "You remember¡­" Bai Qianfeng cuddled in his embrace as she tightened her hands around his body.

    Xiang Li had appeared next to them as she said. "I got a feeling that the array that we saw earlier is a trap."

    "Oh?"

    Xiang Li exined, "Did you notice that none of the skeleton remains have any profound treasures, precious swords or divine swords?"

    "Yea. Now that you have mentioned it, I have noticed it." Ji Yuan said.

    Xiang Li touched the celestial sword that was in Bai Qianfeng''s hands before saying. "This celestial sword is not always a celestial sword but is ''grown'' by absorbing the profound treasures that identally entered into the array.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "This is what I have suspected as well. Some powers have been using it to trap the cultivators inside to grow this celestial sword into an immortal-step saintly divine sword."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Well, this is the least of our worries now. At least whatever powers it may be, he will not discover the theft so soon. Moreover I didn''t exactly steal it. It is in the middle of nowhere plus I had used my mortal-step divine sword to trade for it. So it is fair enough. Haha¡­"

    Then he was grinning, "There is no way he will know who the thief is. Xiang Li, you know what to do, am I right?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I can wipe away the profound signature from this celestial sword so that no one can track us down!"

    "That is my Xiang Li, smart as always all the time." Ji Yuanughed.

    -

    -

    -

    Time passed;

    A dark cloak cultivator had suddenly appeared in the epicenter of the dragon cave when he had sensed a great disturbance in the epicenter of the Sleeping Dragon Immortal Array.

    He was stunned when his celestial sword had suddenly be a mortal-step divine sword.

    Immediately he had taken out a profound treasure to track down the stolen celestial sword but was again stunned that the profound signature of the celestial sword hadpletely disappeared.

    He was now seething with rage. "Who is that joker that reces my celestial sword with a lowly divine sword?!"

    The reason why he was scolding the thief as a joker was because the thief can simply take the celestial sword and dismantle the array at the same time. But instead, the thief had reced it with a low grade divine sword. The action was extremely bizarre!

    "What is this joker trying to do?"

 Chapter 156 Qianfeng, Are You Sure?

    When Ji Yuan had returned with Bai Qianfeng to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, he went immediately to look for Little Princess. This was the first thing that he did.

    He was actually thinking of spending the night with Little Princess.

    But when he reached her abode, he could suddenly hear Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were allughing jovially in Little Princess'' room.

    He was suddenly curiously why they wereughing? And why were they together?

    Little Princess was giggling, "He had actually poured wine all over me. That was how I had first met him¡­"

    "You mean he really did something like this?" Xue Qianxue asked with a soft chuckle. "I can''t believe it."

    "Why didn''t you kill him on the spot at that time?" Ling Feiyue giggled.

    "Maybe I should. This princess was really pissed off by him at that time." Little Princessughed jovially. "Well, I don''t know why I didn''t do that. Maybe at that time I was actually in a jovial mood."

    Ling Feiyueughed, "Sometimes Ji Yuan is really like an uncultured cultivator. Do you know that the first time that we had met, guess what did he say to me?"

    "What?" The other two maidens asked curiously at the same time.

    "He was like an arrogant young master and he even tried to threaten me not to go after Xia Jiajia!"

    "What? He threatened you?" Xue Qianxue chuckled. "He must be courting his own death!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "That is not the end of this matter. He even offered to teach me a cultivation practice or two if I were to leave Xia Jiajia and he even said to me, he can even consider me as his ''brother'' if I can know what to do to bootlick him."

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were banging the table with their hands as theyughed nonstop, "Did he really say that?"

    "I can''t believe that he really say that. Buting from Ji Yuan, I do believe you¡­*soft chuckles*"

    "He must really be smitten by Xia Jiajia¡­"

    *Chuckles*

    *Chuckles*

    *Chuckles*

    Xue Qianxue chuckled jovially, "Well sisters. Since the two of you had already shared with me so much, I may as well tell you what had happened between us. I got a confession to make actually¡­ah~ I find it so hard to put this into words¡­"

    "Ji Yuan he¡­" she lowered her voice to say with a flustered look. "That night when he sneaked into my inn¡­he dropped into my bathtub¡­"

    "What?!!" Ling Feiyue and Little Princess could not hold their astonishments. "He did what? What did he do? He dropped into your bathtub?"

    "Tell us the details please!" Little Princess and Ling Feiyue could not hold back their excitements as they queried Xue Qianxue.

    "How on earth did he drop into your bathtub?" Ling Feiyue was truly astonished. "I thought I had told him to peep at a distance away. He is really such a lecherous man. Sister, please believe me. This is definitely not part of my original n¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was really looking flustered when she had recalled the incident as she muttered. "He literally dropped from the roof at that time. I got a great shock when he had suddenly showed up. This is really so embarrassing."

    Little Princess gasped, "Why didn''t you kill him on the spot?"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "I had recognized him and at the same time I was scared out of my wits."

    "Don''t tell me that it is the true reason why he had gone for his forced seventh realm breakthrough?" Ling Feiyue gasped aloud.

    "I had always wondered why Ji Yuan had never followed our three set of ns for him. Today I had finally known why¡­" Ling Feiyue was astonished.

    She added shyly, "I have a confession to make too. Sorry, I didn''t share the whole truth. The very first time that we had met, Ji Yuan had touched my bosoms¡­"

    "What? So I am not the only reason why he was suddenly going for his forced breakthrough?" Xue Qianxue gasped aloud.

    Little Princess also had a flustered look, "Sisters, actually I have a confession too¡­"

    All of a sudden the three maidens were all talking at the same time as they chatted about what Ji Yuan had done.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    ? Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    These maidens were now sharing his most awkward embarrassments!

    That was precisely the very reason why he had gone for his forced seventh realm breakthrough because he had thought that Xue Qianxue was not going to spare him for real after he had dropped into her bathtub by ident¡­

    It was so embarrassing to him that he did not tell anyone what had happened that night and he had even bade Xia Jiajia goodbye even though he had aplished the mission that was given to him. It was because he did not want to lose his life or to drag the innocents into it especially his sect into it¡­

    After he had realized that ''Ling Feiyang'' was actually a maiden, his resolve for his forced breakthrough became even stronger because of what had happened¡­

    Even Bai Qianfeng was now listening with great pleasure...

    Ji Yuan quickly walked away with a flushed look.

    Because his footsteps were extremely light, none of the maidens knew that he had been ''listening'' to their gossips about him.

    Today, he had decided to sleep alone. If he did not walk away, he was really afraid that Bai Qianfeng would soon know about all his embarrassing past.

    Xiang Li asked him in his soul sea, "Where are we going? I want to listen¡­"

    "No¡­" Ji Yuan answered her in his soul sea with great awkwardness. "If I don''t teach them a lesson then they will think that I am just a beta male and not an alpha male."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li asked innocently, "So we are going to bang them now?"

    "Of course not. We have to wait until they are alone. While they are together, they are a little tough to handle. So we will bid our time." Ji Yuan said righteously.

    Xiang Li was scratching her head in bewilderment, "So we are not going to teach them a lesson now?"

    -

    -

    -

    When he was back in his room, he was still looking quite flustered as he stroked Bai Qianfeng, "These maidens really don''t know how to keep personal secrets. If only they have a quiet nature as you then I can have some peace."

    Then he cuddled Bai Qianfeng with a heartfelt constion, "You are the best."

    Bai Qianfeng looked somewhat guilty. It was because she had already told Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue what happened during the Dream Trial when she was with Ji Yuan¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan had climbed into his bed to sleep, he had suddenly noticed that Bai Qianfeng was in her human form.

    "Qianfeng?"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes to say shyly, "Sorry. Tonight I can''t be your pillow."

    Ji Yuan began to smile awkwardly. Without Qianfeng as his head pillow, he really could not sleep well tonight¡­

    "It is alright." Ji Yuan said weakly. "I shouldn''t be using you as my pillow after I know who you are. I should be the one that ought to say sorry to you¡­"

    All of a sudden he noticed that Bai Qianfeng was only wearing a thin silken robe that was totally translucent and leaving nothing for the imagination.

    His dry throat was suddenly gulping.

    Xiang Li was gasping in his soul sea and was already drooling¡­

    "It''s not that." Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes. "You are my lord and you had risked your life for me¡­and also¡­"

    She had once sworn to her soul sea that if Ji Yuan can survive his duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, she would dly consummate with him. She was too shy to say it loud but she intended to keep the promise that she had made to her soul sea. And tonight was the perfect opportunity for them to be together.

    Bai Qianfeng was bleary eyes as she trembled lightly, "Do you know why I want this celestial sword?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he said at the same time, "I don''t need to know the reasons. I only know that you are my Qianfeng."

    Although celestial swords are profound treasures that the major celestial ns will go to war over but in Ji Yuan''s eyes, it cannot bepared to Bai Qianfeng. Therefore he did not even hesitate at all as he surrendered the celestial sword readily to her.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she jumped into his embrace. "Why are you so good to me?"

    Do you know that with this celestial sword, I can now anchor myself into this realm? I can finally be with you¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he felt her soft body rubbing against him. "That is because you are my Qianfeng and my consort for hundreds of moons in the Dream Trial."

    "Erm Qianfeng, you don''t mind transforming into your little fox look? That is because I am afraid that I may do something funny to you. This gentleman of the sword is somewhat weak in willpower against your charms."

    But Bai Qianfeng continued to cuddle tightly in his embrace.

    Ji Yuan''s eyes almost popped out when he saw that her silken robe had slipped off her shoulders and he was staring at her bare back.

    "This is too sinful¡­" he muttered.

    Although he had said that, he was stroking her bare back with his hand now; his fingers were stroking down and more down¡­

    Xiang Li had materialized silently in the room and she had her fingers in her mouth as she said silently. "This is indeed too sinful¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng looked up at him, "My lord, I shall be yours tonight. What do you say?"

    Ji Yuan was not dumb; he was immediately kissing her passionately and had pulled her robe off.

    He had immediately turned around to pin her down on the bed. "Qianfeng, are you sure?"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes shyly as she nodded. "I am most willing."

    Actually Ji Yuan had missed Bai Qianfeng''s sensual body for a long time. Her willingness was like opening a floodgate and almost immediately, they were rolling on the bed together.

    "Qianfeng, I love you."

    "I love you too, my lord¡­" Bai Qianfeng shyly replied. "Among all the maidens, who do you like the most?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course it is my Qianfeng! Haha." If any of the maidens is to ask him the same question, he will adjust ordingly. Because these maidens are all dear to his heart.

    "Why is that so?" Bai Qianfeng moaned softly at his touches while querying him.

    "Because my Qianfeng is never a gossiper like them." Ji Yuan dered proudly.

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes. "Actually¡­"

    "No actually¡­the night is short!" Ji Yuan wrestled with her.

    Xiang Li was drooling almost immediately. "YES! YES! YES!"

 Chapter 157 Bai Qianfengâ€™s Background

    Many hourster;

    An exhausted Ji Yuan was now caressing Bai Qianfeng''s long silver hair as they looked dreamily at each other.

    He was a little speechless and did not know what to say.

    It was because his cultivation level had increased another step to the heaven-step now. He was now at the upper heaven-step sacred saint level.

    Although this may seem a small step but to the seventh realm cultivators, every small step is extremely difficult and often take centuries for a breakthrough.

    And he had broken through again in such a short time again.

    How the heck did he know that he would gain a breakthrough if he copted with Qianfeng?

    But Bai Qianfeng was not surprised as she smiled dreamily at him, "My lord, you must have experienced your new cultivation strength by now, am I right?"

    "This¡­" Ji Yuan muttered. "What is going on here?"

    "That is because I''m not an ordinary goddess." Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes shyly.

    "Not an ordinary goddess?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "Do you know who I really am?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he panicky tried to recall what Bai Qianfeng had told him in the past. "You''re the Abyssal Null Goddess, right?"

    He actually did not care about Bai Qianfeng''s background as long as she can be with him.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "You have only known me as an immortal cultivator but do you really what kind of an immortal I am?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he caressed her soft body, "Is this important? You''re my Qianfeng. It doesn''t matter to me."

    "No, I must share with you because from this day onward, you''re my true lord already." She hesitated awhile before continuing. "I''m actually not a good immortal. I am a Deste Immortal."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I thought that the Deste Immortals do not exist here." He muttered weakly. "They are tales to frighten the kids."

    The celestials have always thought that ever since the Great God Pangu had split the Gods Realm into the Three Known Realms, the Deste Immortals had been cast out to the Deste Realm and are forever banished from the Three Known Realms.

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "I''m not only a Deste Immortal but an Almighty of my kind. Many years ago when the seal of the Great God Pangu had weakened, we finally had the chance to return to the Gods Realm which is now the Immortal Realm. We were led by the two greatest gods of our kind, the Great Lord Xuan Yuan and the World Ruler Fu Xi. We had battled with the Pangu Immortals and lost¡­"

    She looked mncholy, "It is because we were betrayed by our own kind. We had not only lost the war but we had also lost terribly. We were betrayed by the World Ruler Fu Xi and the Alluring Goddess Theresa. They are among the most powerful immortals of our kind."

    Ji Yuan did not know how tofort her because he knew that if the Deste Immortals had won the war in the Immortal Realm then it would be a disastrous for the Celestial Realm.<sub> </sub>

    He could already imagine the countless number of ascended immortal cultivators that must have perished during that war. He could only say silently. "Luckily I am not born during that period. What is the point of ascending to the immortal realm and then only to die?"

    But he grinned to Bai Qianfeng. "It is alright now. The war is probably over by now."

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head, "The war is far from over."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Please tell me it isn''t true."

    "You had seen the Sagess Alyssa Lu Yinxuan. She is one of the survivors and there are many others that are hiding in the Celestial Realm." Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly. "If I am not wrong then the Evil Cultivation Master is also one of my own kind."

    "But he isn''t the most powerful. The Lord Xuan Yuan is. I had recently done a divination and learnt that he is also here in the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now as he shook his head. "I don''t understand. How did you manage to descend to the Celestial Realm? I have always thought that it is a one way lift to the upper realm."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "Naturally it is because we have plenty of profound treasures to descend to the Celestial Realm. However our profound strength is heavily restricted here. Therefore we can''t openly use our immortal strength here without a bacsh. But that isn''t a real concern because most of us only descend here to escape from the Pangu Immortals. Sooner orter, we will return to the Immortal Realm to do battle with the Pangu Immortals again."

    She sighed. "If I was not injured by the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, I would not be forced to take refuge here."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly coughing. That was because he had almost choked. "You mean you had fought with the Great Goddess Alice?"

    "Celestine Alice is her name. There is only one Great Goddess Alice. Who else but her?" Bai Qianfeng looked at him queerly.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Yea. I had heard of her myths. She is supposed to be the Immortal Ruler of the Immortal Realm."

    "Was. She had since delegated her position." Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "She is now one of Heavenly Rulers of the Thirty-Three Heavens."

    "My lord." Bai Qianfeng sighed softly. "The Deste Immortals are led by the Almighties from the Twelve Citadels of the Ancient Fortress. And I''m one of the Almighties of the Twelve Citadels. The name of my citadel is the Null Citadel."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "My Qianfeng seems to be an important figure."

    Bai Qianfeng looked away, "As an Almighty of my Null Citadel, I am expected to lead my followers to fight against the Pangu Immortals. But now, I had lost my deste aura and have be the same kind as my most hatred foes."

    Ji Yuan said firmly to her, "Qianfeng, I don''t care who you are. Really! I only know that you are my beloved consort. Whether they are the Deste or the Righteous Immortals, I will defend you against them. No one will force you to do what you don''t want to do. This will be my promise to you!"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly, "My lord¡­"

    She quietly smiled as she tightened her arms around Ji Yuan before she cuddled intimately into his embrace. She had finally put a heavy stone down from her heart¡­

    She was really afraid that Ji Yuan may despise her and even avoid her but it seemed that this was not the case.

    Xiang Li who was watching quietly at a corner was also dreamily looking at Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 158 Venerable Elder Ling Fang

    Ji Yuan was now standing in a grand hall that had golden seats that were circling high above him. With him were Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    The five Patriarch Moon Elders were sitting high in front of him and he saw that there were around three hundred others. Half of these cultivators were no longer young and some were even quite old, even by the standards of the celestials.

    The entire hall had an imposing presence and Ji Yuan knew that they were the leadership of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Ling Feiyue quickly whispered to him, "They are the elders and even grand patriarchs of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Today, they will make a final decision on Little Princess and you."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly when he saw the imposing airs of these elders who were all probing him with their divine senses. They did not seem to care if they were unruly.

    Ling Feiyue greeted them, "Greetings to all the elders, grand elders, patriarchs, grand patriarchs and venerable patriarchs. I have brought Ji Yuan here today."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi responded, "As this matter involves the survival of our sect, we can''t make the final decision alone. Therefore our venerable patriarchs will like to meet you before we can make the final decision."

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui was secretly looking at Ji Yuan before shyly averting her eyes away. I have done my best to plead your case in front of the council of the elders. The rest is up to you now.

    Chen Yi looked up to the highest stand toward an old cultivator with long white beard. "Respected Venerable Elder Ling Fang, this is Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue."

    Ling Feiyue quickly whispered to Ji Yuan, "He is my grandfather''s grandfather. Be very respectful to him. I can''t even keep my position intact if he is unhappy with me."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly as he looked up the stand.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang frowned when he saw Ji Yuan. "So you are that Ji Yuan that causes half of my elders to shave off their beards?"

    Although his voice was soft but Ji Yuan could see him loudly as though he was just standing next to him. His first though was that this Venerable Elder Ling Fang really had a strong internal profound strength.

    Ji Yuan immediately answered, "Indeed I am Ji Yuan. My respects to Venerable Patriarch Ling."

    As he greeted Venerable Elder Ling Fang, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were humming softly while maintaining their smiles; they did not care about the oue of their decisions. But out of politeness to Ling Feiyue, they continued to smile amicably.

    Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were too used to disdaining the others; the imposing air of the numerous powerful cultivators in this hall could not change their usual attitude. Moreover, they were also great saintess with their own lofty airs.

    As for Little Princess, even though she had not fully regained her profound strength due to her injuries but she was only a step to be a peak great saintess. In terms of cultivation knowledge and strength, she was better than most of the elders that were presented.

    The only person that could cause her to be fearful was actually her father the Evil Cultivation Master.

    But of course, the main reason why they were humming softly was because they did not like to be questioned in such an unruly manner. After all, they all had their prides.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang merely returned a nod as he stroked his long white beard. "I will go straight to the point. What make you think we will be willing to offer shelter to the three of you and end up offending the major orthodox ns?"

    It was not only Ji Yuan who was startled by this straightforward question but it also caught Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue by surprise.

    Ji Yuan began tough aloud before he said coldly, "Do you think that the major orthodox ns will give up such a good opportunity to get rid of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect? If you really think so, you are too na?ve!"

    "Your enemies areing after you no matter what you will be doing to pacify them. But of course I''m sure that you will be willing on gamble on that, am I right?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had unsheathed his half-step celestial sword as he grinned. "Naturally the best way to pacify them is to surrender us to them."

    Ling Feiyue was shocked when Ji Yuan had suddenly unsheathed his sword and he was disying his profound animus. "Ji Yuan, what are you doing¡­"

    But Ji Yuan continued to say, "However, you have to get past my sword first before you can touch my women."

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were gasping. They had not expected Ji Yuan to unsheathe his sword all of a sudden and he was trying to provoke everyone.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Nobody is saying anything about capturing us yet¡­"

    "Upper heaven-step sacred saint level¡­" Venerable Elder Ling Fang gasped softly. "Aren''t you an upper half-step mortal-step sacred saint level?"

    The elders above Ji Yuan were all muttering; it was because ording to the hindsight that was given by the five patriarch moon elders, Ji Yuan was only an upper half-step mortal-step sacred saint level.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were also gasping at the same time; when did Ji Yuan advanced in his cultivation realm? Howe they were not aware of it?

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Surely you can see that the divine sword that is my hand is a celestial sword and that I am also a great saint. Therefore it won''t be easy for you to handle me. Moreover, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue are also great saintesses. Therefore you have to contest against three great saints. We can ensure you that we will bring as many of you down first before you can even ughter us."

    Then he was added with a grin. "On the other hand, if you need three extra help to fight against the six major orthodox ns, we will be d to help you. So what do you think?"

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang hummed coldly, "I have another option. I can kill the three of you first and negotiate with the six major orthodox ns too. Although it may not be the best of all the options but it is still worthwhile to try."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "When I havee here, I have already known that I cannot escape." That was the reason why he did not bring Bai Qianfeng along. It was because he thought that things may not be so simple and he was proven right.

    Ling Feiyue was startled. How did he know?

    The atmosphere in the air was suddenly extremely tense and there were killing intents in the eyes of several of the elders above Ji Yuan.

    All of a sudden Venerable Elder Ling Fang wasughing jovially, "Ji Yuan, you have some guts to challenge all of us. Keep your guts for your showdown with the major orthodox ns then. A spirited and gutsy man like you is fit to be with my bold Feiyue. Very well, you shall be our new Dark Lord. As for Little Princess and Xue Qianxue, they shall be allowed to stay here."

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly flushing shyly as she muttered softly. "Venerable Elder Ling Fang has finally approved of us¡­"

    Ji Yuan was quite surprised, "Um? You have approved of us?" It seemed that Venerable Elder Ling Fang was able to make the final decision.

    There were a loudmotions among the elders.

    "We are going to ept this Ji Yuan?!"

    "We are going to battle the orthodox cultivators now?!"

    "This is crazy¡­"

    "Although this Ji Yuan has a celestial sword but he can''t defeat all of us here¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Why is Venerable Elder Ling Fang throwing his support for him? He didn''t even answer his questions."

    "I can''t believe it¡­"

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang said, "All of you are dismissed except for the five patriarch moon elders."

    As Venerable Elder Ling Fang had spoken, all the remaining elders had no other choices but to leave the grand hall.

    When everyone was gone, Venerable Elder Ling Fang frowned, "You must be wondering why I am throwing my support for this Ji Yuan."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Indeed I am. Please enlighten me."

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang turned to the five patriarch moon elders and said, "I don''t know what trick you had used to turn half of my elders and the rest of the prot¨¦g¨¦s into beardless cultivators. Before the battle with the orthodox cultivators, the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is already aughing stock of the orthodox cultivators and by everyone else."

    All five of the patriarch moon elders were all smiling sheepishly. It was because they had voted to shave off all the prot¨¦g¨¦s'' beards. Never did they expect that this will rm all the reclusive leadership of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, including Venerable Elder Ling Fang whomanded the highest status in the sect.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang turned to stare at Ji Yuan, "Therefore even I can''t clean up this mess for the sect so you have to be the figurehead to clean up this whole piece of shit."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t worry, I will help to clean this shit for you. Haha."

    Ling Feiyue and the five patriarch moon elders were quite startled to hear that their Venerable Elder Ling Fang was speaking so vulgarly.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang rolled his eyes to stare at Ji Yuan, "Make sure that you are able to lead the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to survive for at least six months or else don''t me me foring after you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I can''t promise but I can try. But why six months?"

    Venerable Elder Ling Fangughed jovially, "Because I will be ascending in less than six months'' time and I won''t see the end of this shit anymore."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    This Venerable Elder Ling Fang is toome¡­

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang added with a smile, "However, I''ve got a good news for you. The major orthodox cultivators have called for a truce for the next three months. And we have agreed. Therefore try to make the full use of it."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Why did they suddenly call for a truce?"

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang stroked his long white beard. "ording to our scouts, they have a more important target than us."

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were all looking at one another with the same question in their minds. More important target? What is it?

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang could tell what they were thinking so he said, "It seems that they are suddenly going after the Evil Cultivation Pce. Or more precisely, to attack First Citadel Lord Yin Wei''s citadels."

    Then he was smiling, "They may probably need more than three months."

    Little Princess was startled, "They dare to attack Yin Wei? Then it is the same as dering war on the entire Evil Cultivation Pce. Why is that so?"

    Yin Wei is the prince and sessor of the Evil Cultivation Pce. He alonemands 60% of the cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce. The number of golden celestials under his wings are also too numerous to be counted.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang answered, "I don''t know the exact reasons why but it seems that Zhao Songjin has dered that she will only marry the man that can bring her the head of Yin Wei. It seems that Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong are pursuing her aggressively and they are supporting the Celestial Orthodox Sect in this new campaign."

    Little Princess: ???

    "Are you sure?" Little Princess was smiling bitterly with disbelief. She had thought that Zhao Songjin and Yin Wei are lovers. Why is she after the life of Yin Wei?! This doesn''t make any sense¡­Is this a plot?

    Even Ji Yuan was somewhat startled. "They have switched their targets now? Erm, they know where the secret citadels of the Evil Cultivation Pce are?"

    Little Princess replied nonchntly, "Zhao Songjin may know several of the secret citadels of Yin Wei. As for my second brother and the Evil Cultivation Master, she may not know."

    Ling Feiyue was frowning, "What is Zhao Songjin up to?"

    But she was suddenly smiling, "Great! We have three more months to make our preparations. Isn''t that good?"

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly, "Three months is too short to do anything¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Three months is more than enough time for us to hide in the mountains. Haha."

    All of a sudden he noticed that everyone was staring at him.

    He smiled bitterly at all the stares, "I didn''t say anything about running away."

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang turned to Ji Yuan with a wry look, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, you are right. I have three months to hide myself in the mountains for my ascension tribtion. Haha."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This Venerable Elder Ling Fang is actually the real joker¡­

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang looked intently at Ji Yuan to say, "In this entire sect, only Ling Feiyue shares the same boldness as me. As for the rest, they are just beardless chickens even if they have beards. I have epted you only because you have the guts to challenge all of us earlier. Do not disappoint me!"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chins with a weak smile as he thought; Feiyue''s boldness indeed can reach to the heavens but why is that I don''t see you having the same boldness as her? Old man, are you pasting gold on your face?

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang took another look at him before smiling, "When I was younger, I was also constantly surrounded by many great celestial beauties and I had also the most beautiful beard. s, I am old now."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He rolled his eyes and thought sarcastically; I am very sure that he is pasting gold on his face. He doesn''t look handsome to me at all...

 Chapter 159 The True Sacred Saint Profound Art

    Ling Feiyue had gathered Ji Yuan, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng together to a secret practice chamber.

    She smiled as she said to everyone, "Although three months are pretty short but it is good enough for us to work on somest minute cultivation practice, right?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "I am actually nning to work on being a romantic cultivator to prepare myself for my next meeting with Jiajia."

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue immediately kicked him and threw their fists on him as they chuckled, "Soon you will be dead and yet you are thinking of being a romantic cultivator. Dream on!"

    Ji Yuanughed. "I was joking. I prefer to practice on my own sword art for the next three months instead."

    Ling Feiyue immediately frowned. "Don''t be too sure about that first."

    She quickly smiled as she took out the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. "We have a full three months now. I am willing to share with my lord and all my sisters for this divine profound art."

    Xue Qianxue gasped, "This is too precious. Are you sure?"

    Even Little Princess was stammering, "Are you sure about it? This is a hotly contested cultivation treasure that the cultivators will give up their life to fight over for it."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "This is not the time for sectarian divides. Moreover I may also need the help of my fellow sisters to delve into the mysteries of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. I have barely formed the Gold Core at the foundational stage and because I had rushed it, I may have made some cultivation mistakes during my practice. Therefore I need my sisters'' help to get past the foundational stage."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "This is an internal profound art. I don''t think I can even get past the basics in three months."

    That was the truth.

    Bai Qianfeng suddenly said, "Ji Yuan is right. It will be hard for him. To form the gold corepletely, it will take roughly 180 years. To form the spirit corepletely, it will take roughly take 360 years. To form the soul corepletely, it will roughly take around 720 years. This is only based on my own estimation. For the celestial practitioners, it will actually take a longer time."

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Bai Qianfeng, "How did you know this much?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "This goddess has already formed my soul core."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Although it is impossible topletely form the gold core in such a short time but I can still guide everyone to form your foundational gold core in three months'' time."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly smiling, "Really? Haha! If there is really a shortcut then I will be interested to try as well¡­"

    "Except for Ji Yuan of course." Bai Qianfeng said coolly. "I''ve almost forgotten that he isn''t an internal profound art cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said weakly, "Why is it I feel that I am being discriminated by everyone."

    "However, I feel that Ji Yuan will be able to seed with the foundation level of the soul core since his soul sea is extremely pure now." Bai Qianfeng pondered for a while before adding.

    "He can skip the gold core and the spirit core?" Ling Feiyue gasped as she asked curiously. "But ording to the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, the gold core must first be formed to be the golden vessel of the spirit core and the spirit core is the outer nucleus of the soul core. Only then can the three cores be formed into the true saint core."<sub> </sub>

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "This is not wrong. However, those with exceptional soul sea can first form their soul core first, then the spirit core before forming the gold core eventually. This is the reverse order. Moreover this reverse order need not require the practitioner to be strong in their internal profound art."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin andughed, "Indeed my soul is extremely pure."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "I wonder if I may learn this reverse order as well?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Yes, you can. Your soul sea is also extremely pure. However I will advise you not to do so because the soul core is quite fragile without any shells."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why did you only give the warning to Qianxue and not me?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "That is because my lord has a strong soul sea and he always keep his promises. His soul sea will never be shaken."

    Ji Yuan had a weak smile. Only Qianfeng believes so strongly in me¡­

    Xiang Li was sticking her tongue out to Ji Yuan in his soul sea, "Your soul sea is always fragile!"

    "Says who?" He frowned.

    "I can see the impurities of your soul sea, you know. You are always lying."

    "This is called cunning! Sometimes you got to fool your opponents, you know."

    "It is still lying."

    "..."

    In order to salvage his face in front of Xiang Li, Ji Yuan solemnly proimed. "I shall cultivate the soul core then!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled all of a sudden, "Ladies, why don''t we go to the city to rx first before we start to cultivate?"

    Ling Feiyue answered weakly, "My lord Ji Yuan, we should begin as soon as possible since we don''t know how much time we are going to take."

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "I agree with Sister Feiyue."

    "Me too." Little Princess agreed.

    But Ji Yuan grinned. "It is only for a day. There is no need to rush."

    Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "Why are we going to the city for? What is the objective?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he suddenly grabbed all four of the maidens together. "Naturally, we are going for a romantic walk in the city. Also, I want to take Qianfeng around the city too."

    All four maidens were flushing all of a sudden before they weakly answered. "Alright then¡­up to you¡­it won''t hurt if we only go for a day¡­"

 Chapter 160 A Romantic Trip (1)

    Ji Yuan was now at the nearest trading city, the Mayhem Rising City. With him were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng who was in her human form.

    He had never been to a city of the unorthodox fraternity and he was now walking along the city streets.

    Although the four maidens all worn curtain veils but it could not hide their beautiful airs and they were inviting constant stare from the celestials that were around them.

    As Ji Yuan walked to building that housed jewelries, he turned to smile at the four maidens. "Why don''t we enter this building and I buy some jewelries for you?"

    "Really?"

    "This is a good idea¡­"

    "When did Ji Yuan be so romantic?"

    As Ji Yuan walked to the entrance of the building, he chuckled. "Feiyue and Qianxue will pay of course."

    "I take back my words¡­"

    "He is definitely unromantic¡­"

    "He even wants us to pay¡­dream on¡­"

    As he entered into the building, a steward immediately greeted him. "Great Celestial, what can I do for you?"

    "Show me your most precious jewelries." He grinned. "It is for the maidens that are behind me."

    The steward answered awkwardly, "We have several levels in this building. The fifth floor houses our most exquisite jewelries but you need a VIP ess invitation. Why don''t we go to the fourth floor instead?"

    Ji Yuan immediately said to the steward, "What VIP ess invitation? Do you think that I am unable to afford your wares?  Take me to the fifth floor now or don''t me me for messing up your shops. Do you want me to tell the whole fraternity that you are not doing business?"

    The steward was speechless but he quickly said, "Great Celestial, please follow me."

    The four maidens could not believe that Ji Yuan had just gate crashed himself. This was a most boorish behavior. He was like an arrogant young master!

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly to the three maidens, "He sounds like a pro. Maybe he had done this quite often for the other maidens¡­"

    Ling Feiyueughed gently, "I totally agree with you sister!"

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were giggling softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Soon they were at the fifth floor and they had to enter several golden celestium doors to reach this floor.

    On this floor, Ji Yuan could feel that his profound strength was being restricted; it was because the fifth floor had a powerful celestial array on this level.

    The same steward took a look at his tattered robe before smiling. "We are the most renowned jewelry merchant in the entire Mayhem Rising City. Our most precious jewelry may be a little expensive for you."

    He had another meaning to his words; our most precious jewelry isn''t for the likes of you to view. Buy only what you can afford."

    Ji Yuan''s conversations with the steward immediately caught the attention of a fine looking golden celestial who was with his two golden celestialpanions.

    This golden celestial immediately chuckled as he appraised Ji Yuan, "I am Shen Qin, the Young Master of the Astonishing Sword Manor. I can see that you have four lovely maidens behind you. Are you thinking of buying them a gift or two?"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned and did the four maidens behind him; it is because the Astonishing Sword Manor is one of the five major unorthodox ns!

    Shen Qin is not only the Young Master of the Astonishing Sword Manor but he is also the acting leader at the same time. Therefore he has an astonishing influential background!

    "Yea. That is my intention." Ji Yuan answered him. "And they are not just any maidens. They are my consorts."

    Technically Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were not his consorts yet. Even Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were not his official consorts yet because they had not gone through the proper rites yet. But in his heart, they were already his consorts.

    Shen Qin had a look of disappointment in his golden eyes. It was because these four maidens had such a lovely figure and he was interested to look at their appearances.

    But he smiled, "May I know how can I address this great celestial?"

    Ji Yuan replied, "Li Yuan."

    Shen Qin smiled, "This saint here greets Brother Li Yuan here." He had purposely said out his cultivation realm loud now because he wanted to impress upon this ''Li Yuan'' and the four maidens behind. "May I know what is Brother Li Yuan''s cultivation realm and your celestial n of origin?"

    Ji Yuan frowned lightly. Can''t he see that I am not interested in talking to him?

    But he replied nevertheless. "Golden saint. Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    The steward who was listening to their conversations had turned pale immediately. He had never expected that this poor cultivator would be a saint! Now he really feared for his own life!

    Shen Qin was startled. He had never expected that this beardless cultivator would be a saint cultivator. Moreover he was from the doomed Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    But he was extremely confident of his own cultivation so he continued to say. "I am a Middle Tier Saint. Haha. Although I can''t say that I have a high aplishment but I have many talents in the Astonishing Sword Manor. Li Yuan, I think that you are also a talent. My sect will always have my doors open for you."

    At this point, he had not given up on trying to greening this Li Yuan yet. It was because his own father had taken another man''s wife as his own and he was the result of this union.

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the strong will always get what they want from the weak and the weak will tter to the strong.<sub> </sub>

    Therefore he is expecting this ''Li Yuan'' to tter him for a chance to join the Astonishing Sword Manor. After all, the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is about to be ttened soon.

    Ji Yuan grinned yfully, "Well, I am an upper heaven-step seventh realm great saint. I''m afraid that your sect is a little too small to amodate me."

    The steward who was listening in almost fainted on the spot¡­

    Shen Qin was suddenly speechless, including his twopanions.

    His twopanions are actually initial saints and are the elders of the Astonishing Sword Manor. At first, they too had a disdainful look at this ''Li Yuan'' who looked like a poor cultivator. But when they had heard that he is a great saint, their disdainful look had suddenly disappeared; it is because a great saint is equivalent to the three of thembined.

    Shen Qin was now smiling bitterly, "Brother Li Yuan must be a high ranking elder of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. It is my pleasure to meet you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not really. Haha."

    He was actually thinking: if you want to green me, you are still ten thousand years early!

    He turned to look at the steward, "Why are you still standing here for? Show me your most precious jewelries for my consorts to view."

    This time round the steward was immediately polite, "Great Saint, I will see to it now. Please pardon me for my impoliteness earlier."

    Shen Qin and his twopanions did not leave yet. In fact they were doubting that this ''Li Yuan'' was a great saint. Therefore they were staying put just to observe a little longer. Their confrontation with this ''Li Yuan'' had caused them to lose their faces.

    The steward had quickly returned with several more stewards and they were now carrying trays of precious jewelries and hairpins for Ji Yuan to view.

    When the four maidens saw the precious jewelries, they made a jovial beeline for it. Even Bai Qianfeng was excited.

    Their jovial and mesmerizing chattering had immediately attracted more than a dozen looks into their directions.

    Even though they were in curtain veils, Shen Qin and many others could tell that they must be lovely maidens.

    Shen Qin was naturally curious about their appearances because he was thinking of expanding his harem. But in front of a great saint, he knew that he had no chance.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to the four maidens, "Go on and have your pick. After that, we shall take a walk in the beautiful cherry blossoms forest outside the city."

    "Really?"

    "Our lord is so generous¡­"

    "We really can pick any of these?"

    "Who is paying for it?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Of course I will be paying for it." Although he was saying so, he was discreetly looking at Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue but they pretended not to see his ''hint''. Naturally this hint was to ask them if it was alright for them to pay for the jewelries themselves.

    He took a quick nce at the pricing for the jewelries and was shocked. The cheapest jewelries were in the range of a few hundred high grade spirit stones!

    This is daylight robbery! Why don''t they rob me instead?!

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng had picked up an exquisite ne and Ji Yuan sharp eyes almost fainted from shock; the tag on it listed this ne as three thousand high grade spirit stones!

    Bai Qianfeng took a look in his direction, "My lord, may I pick this? Is it really alright?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and said with a straight face, "Qianfeng, you are more precious than any jewelry. Go on and pick it. As long as you like it, please do not hesitate to pick it. Haha."

    "Waa, our lord is so generous today¡­"

    "He is only saying it to his Qianfeng and not to us¡­"

    "This is so unfair¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to the rest of the maidens to say, "You are all my precious. Please do not be shy and pick whatever you want."

    "Waaa, our lord is so romantic today¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she showed Xue Qianxue a beautiful ne that was adorned with multiple blue spirit stones. "Sister, this spirit ne is not only beautiful but can also aid us when we are cultivating¡­"

    Ji Yuan was shocked when his eagle eyes picked up the tag. A hundred thousand spirit stones¡­

    Little Princess had picked up a pair of spirit jade bangles, "I didn''t expect to find a pair of white celestium jades here. This one can even increase the profound strength of the cultivator by a little¡­"

    Even though he was standing far away from them but his eyes were really too sharp. In fact Ji Yuan had such exceptional eyesight that he could even see subtle expressions of everyone around him.

    His eyes began to roll when he saw the price tag of the spirit jade bangles that Little Princess had picked. Two hundred thousand high grade spirit stones¡­

    Xiang Li was asking him in his soul sea, "I don''t remember that you even have a hundred high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Yea, me too¡­"

    "You can afford to pay?"

    "I always have a n." Ji Yuan answered with a straight face.

    While Ji Yuan was being distracted, Shen Qin took a subtle look at his elders and they had nodded immediately.

    One of the elders immediately left the building; the hint was obvious. They were going to set up an ambush in the cherry blossoms forest for them.

 Chapter 161 A Romantic Trip (2)

    After the four maidens had selected their jewelries, the steward smiled. "After your VIP discount, it will be a half a million high grade spirit stones. Your consorts really have good eyes. These jewelries are not ordinary jewelries but are all top notch profound treasures as well."

    Yuan Ji rolled his eyes. While I was at my Orthodox Sword Sect, I don''t even see a hundred high grade spirit stones in a single year.

    But he forced through a smile and said, "Wrap it nicely first while I will go and collect the spirit stones."

    When he saw the doubting look that was in the steward''s face, hemented. "What? You think that I will carry so many spirit stones with me all the time?"

    Then he smiled at the four maidens, "Come, let''s go now."

    The four maidens: ¡­

    They definitely had a look of disappointment on their faces even though Ji Yuan could not see through their veils.

    When Ji Yuan and his group had left, Shen Qin immediately said to his elder. "He is definitely a poor cultivator. What do you think?"

    The name of this elder was Zhong Hui and he replied, "He is not only a poor cultivator but also a fake golden saint for sure."

    "Why it that so?" Shen Qin immediately asked.

    Zhong Hui smiled, "By the time a cultivator is a great saint, he will have amassed considerable wealth. Half a million high grade spirit stones is nothing but a speck in his eyes. But look at him. He is so skinny and youthful. Do you believe that he will be a great saint? He doesn''t look like a genius to me."

    Shen Qin had a sudden enlightenment, "You are right! s, I was almost fooled by him! He may be only trying to im he is a saint to impress upon us. This sort of things frequently happens."

    "Precisely. Not everyone can be a saint and not everyone can be great saint." Zhong Hui pointed out. "It will take a lot more than just cultivation to be a saint. A great saint is so rare that you can even count them by their names and I don''t remember hearing any great saint by the name of Li Yuan."

    Shen Qin was smiling now and he was nodding continuously. This was a brilliant analysis from his Elder Zhong Hui.

    "Also, if he is a great saint then why is he not one of the five patriarch moon elders? We all know the names of the five patriarch moon elders of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue is already a genius of her generation and she is groomed by her sect with almost all their cultivation resources. Moreover she is only a middle tier saintess. So how can this Li Yuan be a great saint?"

    Shen Qin smiled, "That is so right. Moreover he cannot be from the other celestial ns too because no one will be so foolish to im that they are from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect at this critical time when the major orthodox ns are attacking it."

    "Precisely."

    Shen Qin sighed heavily before he said coldly. "Ling Feiyue, how dare you reject me! You can win yourself an ally against the major orthodox ns but you choose to reject me. I shall make you pay heavily for it. And this Li Yuan who is from your sect will be the first one to face my wrath!"

    Elder Zhong Hui whispered, "It is not advisable to aid the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Rather, it is best that we sit along the fences. Even if the six major orthodox ns can wipe out the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, they will definitely be limping from their wounds and this will be advantageous for us to expand our influences into the orthodox fraternity."

    Shen Qinughed. "Of course I am not serious about aiding the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Do you really think that I will be so foolish? Although Ling Feiyue may be a legendary beauty and I do wish to obtain her but the survival of my sect matters more to me. I am just ying her. Haha."

    Elder Zhong Hui nodded, "Our supreme leader is wise."

    "Come. The ambush should be ready by now." Shen Qin grinned. "This Li Yuan is going to be a dead man soon."

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan and the four maidens were now walking in the cherry blossoms forest. They wereughing jovially and admiring the beauty of this forest now.

    All four maidens had removed their curtain veils to admire the view.

    <o>,m Ji Yuan smiled as he admired them. Why am I so blissful to have four beautiful maidens aspanions and they also getting along so well together.</o>

    "Ji Yuan." Ling Feiyue suddenly giggled. "So can you tell us how you are going to pay for the jewelries that we have picked? Or are you pulling our legs?"

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue wereughing softly. "He must be pulling our legs¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly as he shifted his eyes to the vicinity, "He will be delivering himself to us soon and he will pay for the tabs."

    Little Princess asked, "You mean that Shen Qin? Is that why you have purposely let slip that you will be here in the cherry blossoms forest?"

    Ji Yuan nodded. Little Princess is smarter to his tricks.

    "How do you know that he will take the bait?" Xue Qianxue asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I saw his eyes constantly looking at your direction. Halfway through, one of hispanions had left the ce, presumably to setup an ambush for us."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "How are you going to make him pay for our jewelries? You want the other man to buy us the gifts? Isn''t that the same as greening you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This is not the same as greening me¡­" He growled. "It is called teaching him a lesson for trying to mess up with my women."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Oh well, let''s see how you''re going to handle this."

    They did not need to wait for too long; it was because from roughly three hundred cultivators were now approaching them from all sides of the cherry blossoms forest

    Shen Qin and his two elders were naturally among them and they were at the foremost of the cultivators.

    How did they muster so many cultivators that consisted of twenty golden celestials in such a short time?

    Trading cities are rare in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and almost all the strong celestial ns will establish their presence in the ce to exert their influences. The Astonishing Sword Manor and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect naturally have a branch in the Mayhem Rising City.

    Therefore it was rtively easy for Shen Qin to muster the local cultivators to serve his nefarious cause.

    When he had arrived at the scene, he was astonished at the four peerless maidens and he was suddenly smiling as their enchanting looks.

    He just has to kill this Li Yuan and these four maidens will be his for the taking. It is really as simple as that.

    Because the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is now in trouble, they will not have the strength to retaliate against the Astonishing Sword Manor for killing a mere elder. The repercussions for offending the Astonishing Sword Manor are not something that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect can afford now.

    In his eyes, the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is now a beaten dog in the streets.

    Shen Qinughed as he approached them, "Brother Li Yuan! I didn''t think that I can see you so soon again. This road is owned by me and this forest is my domain. Since you''re here, do you think that you ought to pay me a little tax?"

    Even if this Li Yuan is a great saint, he will not be able to deal with so many swords and moreover the Astonishing Sword Manor is renowned for its brilliant sword formations.<sub> </sub>

    That is why Shen Qin is now behaving like a big bully.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw Shen Qin as he whispered to the four maidens. "This Shen Qin is really too young, too simple."

    Shen Qin''s sharp ears had naturally picked up the soft whispers that were said by Ji Yuan and he was frowning. "I will give you a count of ten to recall your offensive insults."

    All of a sudden Elder Zhong Hui was stammering as he pointed at a maiden, "She is Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. I had met her once when I was an emissary at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Shen Qin was somewhat surprise as he looked at Ling Feiyue. Soon he was smiling, "She is indeed more peerless than I have imagined. And who are the other three peerless maidens that are with her? I didn''t know that she has any sisters?"

    Elder Zhong Hui replied, "I do not know."

    Shen Qin was now smiling, "So we have managed to snare Ling Feiyue here today. This is indeed such a good thing. Probably this Li Yuan is just a fake great saint and the rest are all Ling Feiyue''s protectors. But he has made a fatal mistake by offending me here."

    Ling Feiyue said gently as she lifted her eyes to stare coolly at Shen Qin, "Since you already know that I''m Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue, why don''t you leave now? This is yourst warning and I will give you a count of ten to beat a nasty retreat."

    Shen Qin smirked coldly as heughed, "What if I say no? I have five saints with me and ten golden supremacies. Also with me are the three hundred expert cultivators of my Astonishing Sword Manor. A hundred expert cultivators from my Astonishing Sword Manor are able to finish off any saint cultivator with the Astonishing Star Killing Array. Do you really think that your intimidation will work against us?"

    "Why give him a chance to get away?" Ji Yuan was frowning.

    He had already taken out his celestial sword and immediately there was a suppression that could be felt by everyone. Even his profound animus had quickly proimed him as a great saint.

    Celestial swords require a great deal of profound strength to wield or else it will be too heavy to swing. Therefore the instant that Ji Yuan had unsheathed his celestial sword, the high level cultivators had already gauged his cultivation strength with their divine senses. It does not matter if Ji Yuan is hiding his cultivation strength or not because divine swords are able to able to reveal his true strength to the others.

    Shen Qin and many others were startled to see a formidable celestial sword in Ji Yuan''s hand.

    "This¡­"

    "He has a celestial-step divine sword?"

    "Half-step celestial sword to be more exact¡­"

    Elder Zhong Hui smirked coldly, "Young Master, today I will get you this sword as your trophy."

    Shen Qin nodded as he shouted back at Ji Yuan. "Who is the one that is not going to get away? Attack them!"

    Immediately hundreds of swords were charged toward Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan had immediately raised his sword and he had shed into their midst to unleash dozens of sword energies.

    Immediately tens of cultivators were shocked by the waves of sword energies that were exploding all around them. They had never seen anyone who was able to disy sword energies to such an astonishing level.

    "Who is he?"

    "Our sword formations are like cheese against him¡­"

    Elder Zhong Hui rallied his side and shouted, "Whoever can get me his head will be handsomely rewarded and will be made a core prot¨¦g¨¦! Don''t be afraid, there is no way he can break our Astonishing Star Killing Array¡­"

    All of a sudden the attacking cultivators were all panicking¡­

    "Saint Shu Daren and Saint Shu Dawan are both down¡­"

    "Who is he¡­"

    "We are no match from a great saint¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw another saint and he had shed toward a saint to deliver several powerful shes that had forced him back. He was only stopped when several golden celestials were all attacking him from all sides.

    "This guy is aiming all our high level golden celestials¡­"

    "What is he trying to do? He is trapping himself in our formation¡­"

    Shen Qin could not believe that this Li Yuan was crazy enough to jump into the middle of the formation where the golden saints were and where the defenses were the strongest.

    "Isn''t he supposed to defend against the maidens?"

    Shen Qin immediately shouted, "Group 4 and group 5, go get Ling Feiyue. Don''t entangle everyone with a mere cultivator. He is trapped anyway."

    As group 4 and group 5 charged at Ling Feiyue, all four maidens had unsheathed their divine swords and their profound strength were revealed to be at the upper sacred saint level; they were all great saintesses!

    One of the maidens with the long silver hair even had a full-step celestial sword and she was a peaked great saintess!

    She is Bai Qianfeng and she has already regained her full profound strength!

    Shen Qin had turned ashen immediately. Five great saints?! How is it possible for five great saints to be in the same ce at the same time?!

    Elder Zhong Hui suddenly had a bad feeling as he stared at Ji Yuan; it is because his swordy is too good and the Astonishing Star Killing Array did not seem to work very well against Ji Yuan because he is sword energies practitioner that can strike the behind the ranks of his attackers.

    "True sword energies form¡­this is not possible¡­"

    When Ji Yuan moved his sword forward, three perfect sword energies exploded on the ground before splitting into three more smaller sword energies from each of the perfect sword energies, creating nine more lethal sword energies that were flying all over.

    A single sword energies from Ji Yuan was so powerful that it can split a cultivator into halve and it can still continue to move with an unstoppable force. It will take a cultivator of the sixth realm to block itpletely.

    But Ji Yuan was so fast that in a blink of an eye, he had raised his sword to unleash three perfect sword energies for a total of four times, creating thirty-six sword energies in a devastating killing path.

    An unlucky saint cultivator was caught by five such sword energies and he was being ripped apart.

    All the golden celestials on the side of the Astonishing Sword Manor were now panicking!

    This ''Li Yuan'' was aiming at them relentlessly!

    Their advantage of three hundred cultivators was suddenly gone like the wind because there were none that dare to get close to Ji Yuan.

    Even if they could get close to him, their profound strengths were sapped by the suppression of his celestial sword.  Moreover they were now shocked to see a perfect harmony between sword and man. The double halos that were being disyed were like rings of death all around Ji Yuan.

    Elder Zhong Hui was now stammering to Shen Qin, "I think we are in trouble. This Li Yuan may be Sword Demon Ji Yuan himself¡­"

    Shen Qin was also stammering, "The one¡­that kills¡­Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo?"

 Chapter 162 A Romantic Trip (3)

    Ji Yuan was now hugging Shen Qin on his shoulder as he took him back to the jewelry building and they were now at the VIP fifth floor.

    Behind them were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng who had donned back their curtain veils.

    Also standing behind awkwardly was Elder Zhong Hui.

    Why were they now so friendly toward each other? It was because Shen Qin hadpletely surrendered earlier.

    Ji Yuan said to Shen Qin as though he was an old friend, "Really. You don''t have to do it. You sure you want to pay for the tab for me."

    Shen Qin smiled bitterly, "It is my pleasure to do things for Brother Ji¡­"

    "Li Yuan." Ji Yuan corrected him with a smile.

    "Yes, yes. For my Brother Li Yuan, I am most willing to do so. There is no question that I am most willing." Shen Qin smiled weakly.

    Ji Yuan promptly turned to the same steward that had served him earlier, "Where are my jewelries? Did you forget to wrap them?"

    The steward panicky answered. "I will go and get it now for you. Please pardon me¡­"

    Ji Yuan then turned to Shen Qin and said, "s, you know that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is in trouble with the major orthodox ns."

    Shen Qin immediately said with great righteousness, "I will definitely be supportive of the cause of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and will muster my sect''s strength to aid your sect."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Brother Shen Qin, you are indeed very righteousness. But if I release you, how do I know that you will not go back on your promises? So it is better that I shall invite you to be a guest of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Do you think that it is a good idea?"

    "I will definitely keep my promise." Shen Qin smiled weakly. "Elder Zhong Hui can stay behind to be your hostage."

    Elder Zhong Hui: ¡­

    Ji Yuan sighed, "But Elder Zhong Hui is a lowly saint cultivator and your sect has nock of saints. What if you go back and muster your entire force against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect then won''t I be too young, too simple?"

    Shen Qin protested weakly, "Brother Li Yuan is so smart and wise, I dare not try to pull wools over your eyes. I will definitely keep my promises."

    Ji Yuan seemed to ponder for a while before saying, "Why don''t you leave behind your arm? I will promise to preserve it perfectly so that you can re-attach itter. Then I will feel more secure."

    Shen Qin was now trembling with fear, "Please don''t¡­this will affect my cultivation speed¡­"

    "You''re already a middle-tier saint. There is no need for you to cultivate in such a hurry." Ji Yuan chuckled. "Moreover you are still a far way off from being a great saint. Maybe you will even get killed by the Lightning Tribtion."

    Shen Qin was speechless as he cursed Ji Yuan silently. Without my arm, I will surely get killed by the Lightning Tribtion¡­

    Ji Yuan took a look at him before smiling, "Your heaven-step divine sword is quite a good sword. Why don''t you give it to me as well?"

    Shen Qin was stunned. "This is my sect''s heritage sword. How can I give it to you just like this?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not give to me. I am only borrowing it until the day that you can fulfill your promise. Well, if you don''t want to then I am not forcing you. After all, I can take it for myself if I want to do so. I have also heard that you got a younger brother that will be interested to take over your sect leader position¡­"

    Shen Qin immediately said, "You may take my heaven-step divine sword. It is my pleasure to lend my divine sword to a great hero like my Brother Li Yuan here."

    He added nervously, "So can I go now?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and asked. "What do you think?"

    "I can¡­go now?" Shen Qin asked with trembling lips.

    Ji Yuan patted his shoulder and chuckled. "Not yet. There are more things that we are going to do next."

    Shen Qin was about to faint. How the hell did he offend this great malevolent star¡­

    Ji Yuan grabbed Shen Qin''s shoulder like an old friend. "Because we are friends now and I think you ought to do a little bit more. I can only release you if you are able to prepare one million high grade spirit stones to the war cause of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Shen Qin was suddenly smiling. One million high grade spirit stones are nothing at all to the Astonishing Sword Manor. As long as he can get out of his present predicament, he can always take revenge on this Ji Yuanter. Even if Ji Yuan has ten lives, he cannot fight against the full might of the Astonishing Sword Manor.

    "No problem! I can get it done immediately. To show my sincerity, I will leave Elder Zhong Hui in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect as a hostage."

    Elder Zhong Hui: ¡­

    Elder Zhong Hui: ¡­

    Elder Zhong Hui: ¡­

    "You''re such a great brother to me!" Ji Yuan chuckled. "It is a good thing that I have met you here."

    Shen Qin smiled bitterly, "This is for sure. So I can go now?"

    Ji Yuan took an intentional look at him before grinning. "Not yet. There is something that we ought to do together before I will let you go."

    Shen Qin pretended to agree, "Naturally it is my pleasure to help Brother Li Yuan. What is it?"

    "It is nothing really and will be easy for Brother Shen Qin to do so." Ji Yuanughed aloud before grinning. "We are going to attack the branches of the other three major unorthodox ns together."

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Shen Qin almost fainted on the spot as he stammered. "We¡­are¡­going to make enemies¡­of the three other major unorthodox ns?"

    Even Ling Feiyue and the other maidens were gasping with shock. They really did not know that Ji Yuan will be this shameless and daring!

    They had all thought that this was just a romantic trip to spend time together¡­

    Ji Yuan patted Shen Qin on his shoulder, "What? You have dared to offend the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and you dare not offend the three other major unorthodox ns?"

    Shen Qin was smiling bitterly now; he waspletely speechless.

    Even if he was not willing to throw his lot with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, he would not have the choice anymore after he had attacked the three major unorthodox ns. This Ji Yuan was forcing him to throw his lot with the Spirit Blue Moon Sectpletely!

    Ji Yuanughed, "Since Brother Shen Qin had already said that it will be your pleasure to help me then let''s not hesitate anymore. After I get the jewelries for my consorts, we will attack the other three major unorthodox ns immediately."

    Shen Qin smiled awkwardly, "Naturally it is my full pleasure to aid Brother Li Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Brother Shen Qin, I''m so lucky to have you as my brother."

    "Me too¡­" Shen Qin replied bitterly. "Very lucky indeed¡­."

    Ling Feiyue was blinking her eyes as she looked panicky at Ji Yuan. Is this really such a good idea? What if we have offended the other unorthodox major ns at the same time? Then won''t we be fighting on all fronts?

    "Kill them all¡­"

    The news quickly spread that the five major unorthodox ns were bullying all the other celestial ns in Mayhem Rising City. Immediately several coalitions were formed to fight back against the five major unorthodox ns and all the old alliances were suddenly broken.

    Many of the unorthodox cultivators were looking confused. "I thought that we have paid our protection money to the major unorthodox ns? Why are they attacking us?"

    "I heard that Sword Demon Ji Yuan and Young Master Shen Qin have formed a powerful alliance together and they are bullying the rest¡­"

    "The unorthodox fraternity is now in a turmoil¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, what have you done¡­" Ling Feiyue said to him after they had returned to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Xue Qianxue asked, "Ji Yuan, so this is your real n to get the other unorthodox ns to join us?"

    Little Princess smiled weakly, "I feel that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect will soon be the number one public enemy in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I also didn''t want this to happen but that Shen Qin is trying to green me. My defense mechanics just got kicked in."

    "But at least that Young Master Shen Qin is going to be our real ally now." He chuckled.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Indeed. When Shen Qin had returned to his sect, he did not dare to tell anyone that he had been intimidated by Ji Yuan. Therefore to save his face, he could only say to the elders that the other three major unorthodox ns had been stepping on the toes of the Astonishing Sword Manor for far too long. Therefore he had ordered an attack on them.

    Because he knew that the Astonishing Sword Manor will not able to fight off three major unorthodox ns at the same time, he had really thrown in his lot with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect this time round.

 Chapter 163 Diplomacy Or War (1)

    Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan were now talking to the five patriarch elders in the inner pce hall of the Dark Mistress'' Citadel.

    Ling Feiyue smiled to the five patriarch moon elders, "Ji Yuan and I will be cultivating together behind closed doors for the next three months. Therefore, please help me to take care of the sect affairs for the time being."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That''s right."

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yiughed, "Please rest assures that nothing will go wrong in the next couple of months."

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui said, "I don''t understand. You have only gone for a trip to the Mayhem Rising City and had only met Young Master Shen Qin only once. Yet he is willing to cement an alliance with us? And he has even delivered a million high grade spirit stones to support us. Isn''t this a little too strange?"

    Ling Feiyue had a gentle flush, "He says he is my admirer and I can''t stop him for admiring me. Do you agree?"

    Ling Tianshui smiled weakly, "Niece, there is no free lunches in the world. We ought to exercise a little cautious on this. Maybe it is even wise to reject his alliance with us?"

    Chen Yi added, "I don''t trust him too. I''m sure that you know very well how that Elder Zhong Hui had such an haughty air thest time when you had rejected the marriage proposal of his sect leader. But now this Elder Zhong Hui is even willing to be a guest here to ensure that the alliance will be going smoothly."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. Until now, she did not dare to tell them what had happened at Mayhem Rising City. She had decided to quickly enter seclusion before the five patriarch moon elders could discover what Ji Yuan had done at the Mayhem Rising City.

    Ji Yuan quickly said with a straight face, "I''m sure that the patriarch elders know what to do. We should enter seclusion now to prepare for the uing battle. After all, the time is short."

    Ling Feiyue stared nkly at Ji Yuan and did not know whether tough or cry. She knew that he was trying to enter seclusion as soon as possible before anyone could found out about what he had done.

    All of a sudden a prot¨¦g¨¦ had panicky arrived at the entrance of the hall, "We have a highest alert message for our Dark Mistress. It is the Purple g."

    ? Immediately all five patriarch elders were stunned. The Purple g is the highest alert in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and it means that something critical had happened.

    Ling Feiyue quickly said with a panicky look, "I will leave it to our patriarch elders to settle this. I shall take my leave first."

    Chen Yi immediately said, "This won''t do. This is the highest alert. Quickly summon the messenger."

    Ling Tianshui nodded, "I agree as well."

    The other three patriarch elders were all nodding as they muttered. "I wonder what has happened to have such a critical alert? Are we under attack?"

    Ling Feiyue sighed heavily as she looked hatefully at Ji Yuan. Look what have you done? How am I going to clean up this mess now?

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Since this is the highest alert and may pertain to the secrets of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, I shouldn''t be around. I shall take my leave first and enter seclusion first. Please pardon me for not staying¡­"

    "No, you are the new Dark Lord now so you should stay here." Ling Feiyue said unhappily.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Since Feiyue wants me to stay, I shall stay then¡­"

    Chen Yi was looking quite haughty. This was the perfect opportunity for him to show Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and the new Dark Lord Ji Yuan that they could confidently pass the sect matters to him to handle. After all, he was the head of the five patriarch elders.

    He immediately patted his chest to dere proudly to Ling Feiyue, "Leave it to us to handle this and you only have to just tell us your opinion. Nothing will be difficult orplicated in our hands. Haha."

    Ling Tianshui was smiling too, "Indeed. Will this be more troublesome than the troubles of the six major orthodox ns?"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes. I hope that you won''t get a shockter¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately said. "In this case, we shall be d to leave it to the patriarch elders to handle¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly stepped on his foot before she whispered. "Stop adding oil¡­"

    Ji Yuan put on a straight face. "I''m just impressed by the abilities of the patriarch elders¡­"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Soon a messenger had arrived with panicky look, "My greetings to Dark Mistress and the patriarch elders¡­"

    Chen Yi immediately said with an unhappy look, "What is it? This has better not be a false rm."

    The messenger quickly stammered out, "Something happens at Mayhem Rising City¡­this¡­"

    "Why are you stammering? Hurry and report it to us." Chen Yi frowned.

    The messenger really did not know how to put this into words and he was trying his best to report it properly. "This¡­the five major unorthodox ns have suddenly attacked Mayhem Rising City and dere war on hundreds of lesser celestial ns."

    Chen Yi immediately rebuked the messenger. "Nonsense! The Spirit Blue Moon Sect is part of the five major unorthodox ns. Howe we didn''t know anything about this? Unless you want to say that we have been unceremonially removed from our position as a major unorthodox n by the unorthodox fraternity."

    The messenger immediately kowtowed panicky. "I am speaking the truth. They say that the leaders of the five major unorthodox ns are the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the Astonishing Sword Manor."

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Ling Tianshui: ¡­

    "Rubbish! We only have a small presence in Mayhem Rising City. How the heck do we have the ability to lead an attack on so many celestial ns at the same time? This must be the plot of the Astonishing Sword Manor!" Chen Yi immediately concluded angrily. "These people must be blind to fall for the impersonators!"

    The messenger wanted to continue but when he took a nce at Ling Feiyue, he was stammering. "Erm¡­there are reports that our Dark Mistress is there to lead the attack¡­"

    Chen Yi shouted angrily, "Rubbish! Why should our Dark Mistress does something like this? Get our Spirit Blue Moon Sect Branch at Mayhem Rising City to investigate this and get hold of the impersonators. I will make sure that they will get slice by me personally for ckening the honor of our sect!"<sub> </sub>

    The messenger''s head sunk even lower. "Our entire Spirit Blue Moon Sect Branch is involved in the attacks¡­this is not all¡­"

    "What? Our branch is involved in the attack?! Not all? What do you mean this is not all?" Chen Yi frowned angrily and he had a most perplexed look now.

    "The other three major unorthodox ns; the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect are now using that we have attacked their sects and even forcing them to attack the rest of the lesser celestial ns." The messenger broke into a cold sweat as he stammered out. "And they have just dered war on us."

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Ling Tianshui was also stunned. "Who is the one that dares to activate our Spirit Blue Moon Sect Branch in Mayhem Rising City to do such a horrible thing?"

    "Our¡­Dark¡­Mistress¡­" the messenger stammered nervously.

    Ling Feiyue awkwardly said to the messenger, "You may go. I already know the details."

    When the messenger had left, Ling Tianshui turned to Ling Feiyue with a bewildered look. "Niece, what is going on here?"

    Ling Feiyue had a flustered look on her as she said weakly. "This, I can exin¡­"

    She turned to call out to Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had discovered that Ji Yuan had secretly left the hall while everyone was paying attention to the messenger.

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    She awkwardly said, "I only did this to find us an ally. The good news is, the Astonishing Sword Manor has agreed to lend us their support should the six major orthodox ns attack us."

    Ling Tianshui said with great exasperation. "You know we can''t afford to offend the Quad Alliance Sect. How do you expect us to clean up this mess now?"

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Chen Yi, "I thought that Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi will be able to handle this for me while I am away for my seclusion."

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    Chen Yi: ¡­

    He made a deep sigh, "You know. Although the six major orthodox ns are all formidable celestial powers but they dare not encroached easily into the unorthodox fraternity. Therefore they had to iste us from our allies and find a righteous way to attack us¡­"

    "But the major unorthodox ns are different. They are right at our footstep and they can attack all our sect branches in the trading cities that are in the unorthodox fraternity. Without a branch at the trading cities, how do you expect our sect to thrive in the future?"

    Ling Feiyue was really, really flustered. Ji Yuan had reallypletely isted the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. She had never handled anything in this scale before and waspletely at a loss.

    "So what shall we do now?"

    Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui smiled bitterly at Ling Feiyue, "We have no idea as well¡­"

    All of a sudden another messenger had panicky rushed into the hall. "Dark Mistress, Patriarch Elders. I have something important to report!"

    Chen Yi frowned. "What is it?"

    The messenger said nervously, "The envoys from the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect are all here now. They are all great saints. They want to speak to our Dark Mistress."

    Ling Feiyue said weakly, "I didn''t expect that they will be here so quickly. Someone go get Ji Yuan. Even if he is hiding in a hole, you must dig him up. He is going to clean up this mess or else I will kick him down the deste mists."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly entered the hall as he smiled, "I am here. I have sensed some formidable auras so I have just gone out to take a look."

    Ling Feiyue stared coldly at him, "Tell me what I should do now?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and grinned. "Trust me and leave it to me. I know what to do. I have been expecting them. They are quicker than expected. They must be quite nervous now. Haha."

    Everyone: ???

    Ling Feiyue asked, "Exin?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Because no one will believes them. Everyone only believes what they are seeing and they can only see that the attacks are made by the five major unorthodox ns. Therefore what we are facing now is precisely what they are facing now."

    He added with a grin. "We shall see all three envoys at once."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly. "I really hope you know what you are doing..."

    Ji Yuan smiled confidently, "You have forgotten that I have been a sect master for a long time."

 Chapter 164 Diplomacy Or War (2)

    The envoys of the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect had all gathered in the same hall and they all had an ugly expression.

    Even when Ling Feiyue, Ji Yuan, Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui had arrived to greet them, they still maintain their ugly and unhappy countenance. After all, they were all great saints with a lofty status in their own sects.

    As soon as Ji Yuan saw them, he greeted them with a soft chuckle. "Wee, wee!"

    Great Saint Gu Gui from the Dark Solstice Sect frowned unhappily, "Who are you and who do you think you are? Do you think that you have a ce to speak to us in the first ce?"

    Ling Feiyue immediately hummed coldly, "He is my lord! The Dark Lord Ji Yuan!" No one will be allowed to hurl insults at her lord in her presence.

    Great Saint Gu Gui frowned. "Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "I am Sword Demon Ji Yuan now."

    Great Saint Tian Shan from the ck Iron Fortress suddenly interrupted. "You are the one that had killed Sword Saintess Yuluo?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "That is right."

    Great Saint Tian Shan said coldly, "Did you ambush her or what?" The reason why he was saying so was because he once had a duel with Sword Saintess Yuluo and had lost to her. He was a great saint yet he had lost to a middle-tier saintess.

    "Of course not. I have won fair and square." Ji Yuan answered confidently.

    "I find it hard to believe. You are merely an initial saint." Great Saint You Tianlong from the Quad Alliance Sect hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan immediately took out his half-step celestial sword and disyed his perfect harmony with it and he was grinning. "Not a problem if I have a celestial sword right?"

    The three great saints were gasping immediately.

    "Celestial sword¡­"

    "Perfect divine harmony¡­"

    "You are a great saint as well?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am merely at the Upper Heaven-step Seventh Realm Sacred Saint Level and still far from being a peaked great saint."

    Ling Feiyue immediately rolled her eyes; Ji Yuan is boasting about his cultivation level again¡­how on earth did he advance so quickly. This is getting more and more outrageous¡­

    The three great saints from the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect were all gasping with shock again.

    Actually Ji Yuan did not need to proim his cultivation level to them. The instant that he had unsheathed his celestial sword, his cultivation level was known to them through their divine sense.

    "Upper heaven-step great saint¡­"

    These three great saints werepletely stunned. It was because they had thought that they would be able to pressure Ling Feiyue and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect by their presence.

    They knew that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect had only one peaked great saint and that is their Venerable Patriarch Ling Fang. But other than Venerable Patriarch Ling Fang which they had to give some faces, the three of them would not care for any others.

    The three of them were all mortal-step and earth-step great saints. In order to be a great saint, they had stepped onto the corpses of many and had consumed a great deal of cultivation resources. Moreover they had gone through four life and death tribtions. Whether it is luck or cultivation resources, they are at the top of the pecking order.

    Therefore when they saw Ji Yuan, they had immediately disdained him.

    But now they had suddenly realized that a super genius with a celestial sword had suddenly appeared in front of them and they were speechless.

    In the celestial realm, those who have a celestial sword are few in between and they had a clear advantage.

    Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui were stunned too; when did this Ji Yuan suddenly be a heaven-step great saint?!

    Not long ago their divine sense had told them that Ji Yuan was a half-step great saint. Ling Feiyue had exined to them that Ji Yuan was actually at the upper earth-step sacred saint level but because he just had his breakthrough, his profound strength was not at his peak yet.

    And now, he had not only regained his profound strength to the earth-step sacred saint level but he had also advanced to the heaven-step sacred saint level? They just could not believe it!

    Ling Tianshui was secretly biting her lips and there was a slight flush on her countenance. She was actually thinking; Guess that I didn''t pick the wrong man. He is such a rare genius cultivator¡­

    In order to be a heaven-step sacred saint level, it is estimated that it will take most cultivators one to three thousand years to reach this level. Mostmonly, it will take three thousand years on the average and more for the majority.

    Great Saint Tian Shan muttered, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan is so young and you''re already a great saint. This is kinda hard to believe. Your lightning tribtion must surely be the six-stage golden lightning for a genius like you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually my lightning tribtion is the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion. Haha."

    Great Saint Gu Gui, Great Saint Tian Shan and Great Saint You Tianlong: ¡­

    Nine-Stage Purple Lightning?!

    Only one in ten thousand great saints will have the chance to experience the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion and their life span will be destined to be above ten thousand years. This is a monstrous existence!

    All of a sudden the three great saints were all gulping.

    Originally they hade to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to demand answers and for reparations but all of a sudden they felt it was a little unwise to offend such a powerful figure. Moreover this Sword Saint Ji Yuan was so ruthless as to kill Sword Saintess Yuluo and he had even dared to offend the entire orthodox fraternity.

    It was no wonder that he had dared to attack their sects!

    "My lord. You have called for us?"

    All of a sudden three beautiful maidens had entered into the great hall with their divine swords. They were Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng.

    Ling Tianshui and Chen Yi were suddenly blinking at Bai Qianfeng. Who is this maiden? They had never seen her before¡­

    Ji Yuan rebuked them gently. "Why are you disying your swords? They are our allies and not our enemies. Hurry and sheathed your swords into your spatial rings!"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "We are afraid that our lord may be in danger so we are here to check things out."

    Little Princessughed, "That is right!"<sub> </sub>

    The three great saints were suddenly staring at the three maidens one by one. It was because they were all great saintesses¡­

    The three great saints looked at the maiden in white whom loveliness was so enticing that they were gasping with praises for her beauty. This maiden in white must be Xue Qianxue and she is a mortal-step great saintess.

    The enchanting maiden in ck that had a most bewitching look must be the real appearance of Little Princess. She is a heaven-step great saintess¡­

    The three great saints had heard that Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were now guests at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect so these two must be them.

    As for the heavenly and forbidden looking maiden with long silver hair, they were shocked that their divine sense had picked her to be a peak great saintess! They just could not believe their divine sense and moreover the divine sword that was in her hands was a full-step celestial sword!

    One celestial sword is already extremely rare even if it is a half-step. But there are actually two celestial swords in the hands of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    The three great saints did not know whether tough or cry now¡­

    The three maidens did not conceal their profound aura at all and had revealed their true profound strength through their divine swords.

    Except for Bai Qianfeng; Xue Qianxue and Little Princess could actually lower their cultivation strength to a lower level because their heaven-step divines sword did not require as much profound strength to handle as a celestial sword. But they chose not to.

    Ji Yuan suddenly asked, "Oh yes. I thought that we are on something today? What is it?"

    The three great saints immediately answered at the same time. "Haha. Actually we are on a friendly visit. We thought that there may be some misunderstanding so we are here to clear it."

    If the three great saints had any doubts about the strength of Ji Yuan, it hadpletely dispelled now after the three maidens had shown up and were addressing Ji Yuan as their lord.

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Of course we have a little misunderstanding. The five major unorthodox ns have always been united. If we are not united then even the lesser celestial ns can pick a fight with us."

    Great Saint Gu Gui agreed. "Even though the lesser celestial ns are not powerful alone but they number in the hundreds and they control the trading cities. How do you think we should clean up this mess?"

    Ji Yuan blinked at them, "Do we even need to clean up the mess in the first ce?"

    "Meaning?" Great Saint Tian Shan asked.

    Ji Yuan replied, "As long as the five major unorthodox ns form a close alliance, this matter will soon be forgotten. Although we have attacked the lesser celestial ns in Mayhem Rising City, no one has got killed. Don''t forget that we are not called the unorthodox cultivators for nothing."

    Great Saint You Tianlong pped, "Right! Although these cultivators are numerous but in the unorthodox fraternity, it is normal for fights to break out. If we are united then this matter will soon be forgotten."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Smart. Most of the cultivators are ming the fire and hoping that the five major unorthodox ns will start fighting so that they can topple us. But if we don''t fight and stay united then they can only suck their thumbs. Haha!"

    "You know. I have already made an alliance with the Astonishing Sword Manor. I will only be too d to make alliances with your sects as well. That is why I have resorted to this to get your attention. I hope that you will forgive me for trying to get your attention." Ji Yuan shamelessly said. "If the three of you do not mind, you can address me as Brother Ji Yuan. We can be brothers from now on."

    "Oh no, we don''t mind at all¡­"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, we are honored to have you as our brothers¡­"

    "We don''t see anything wrong with cementing an alliance together¡­"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, when are you free to visit my sect?"

    All of a sudden the three great saints wereughing with Ji Yuan together. None of them wanted to give an advantage to the other sects and was eager to cement an alliance with Ji Yuan.

    "May we know what is the secret to your cultivation strength?"

    Yuan Ji replied shamelessly. "I am really lucky to have lost my beard during my golden body transformation and chance upon this secret."

    "Oh?"

    "Why do you think we will lose our beards during our golden body transformation and it only happens to the few? The few are actually the lucky ones!"

    "This¡­is this true?"

    "Look at me. I am a living example of this great astonishing secret." Ji Yuan pointed out to them.

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes as she stole a nce to her aunt Ling Tianshui who had also stolen a nce at her. She was silently saying: I think that Ji Yuan makes a better sect leader than I. These envoys are supposed to be here to talk to me but they end up talking to only Ji Yuan¡­

    Even Ling Tianshui was thinking. Why is that I feel that this Ji Yuan is the real leader of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect¡­

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin; This entanglement isn''t too hard to solve. It is quite amon affair in the Five Heavens Peaks.

    He was the highest level cultivator in the Five Heavens Peaks and he had often used the same trick. In the end, everyone was calling him Big Brother Ji Yuan.

    The only thing that he cannot do is to regain his beautiful beard and reim his once respectful spot in the Five Heavens Peaks.

    But there is a saying. If you cannot beat them, join them!

    Therefore he is now working on his new n of turning everyone into beardless cultivators and proiming the new virtues of being a beardless cultivator!

    Then he can return to the Five Heavens Peaks as the most respectable cultivator again!

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Xue Qianxue had caught him rubbing his chin and saw that he had a wry smile. Somehow they had a bad feeling about it. They had been with him for far too long to realize that whenever Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and was smiling, he must have thought of something weird.

    All of a sudden there was a panicky cultivator had rushed into the hall and was shouting, "Reporting to Dark Mistress, there is now an emergency!"

    Ling Feiyue curiously asked, "What is it?"

    "The Venerable Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce is here! She demands to see Li Yuan! But we have no Li Yuan here..."

    When everyone had heard the panicky cultivator, they were all gasping with shock.

    Ji Yuan could feel the cold gaze that were from Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng as they looked in his direction.

    He said bitterly, "Don''t look at me like this. I didn''t do anything at all."

 Chapter 165 The Water Melody Palace (1)

    As Ling Feiyue led everyone out to greet this new intruder, she was saying exasperatingly. "This Venerable Pce Mistress. Who do she thinks she is? She dares to barge into my sect anyhow she pleases? What happens to our sect defensive arrays and protectors?"

    She questioned the panicky cultivator along the way out of the hall. "How many cultivators did she bring?"

    The panicky cultivator had a flustered look as he replied awkwardly. "She onlyes alone."

    "What?" Ling Feiyue was stunned. There were always more than a hundred golden celestials around and 10+ sacred saints around. How was it possible for a lone cultivator to storm into the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?

    This was a p to her face and a tremendous loss of faces to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect in front of the three visiting great saint envoys.

    Even Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui were shaking with disbelief as they stormed angrily to the outside.

    They were not particr worry because they had more than ten great saints altogether. What can a lone great saintess from the Water Melody Pce do to them?

    The three great saints from the three other major unorthodox ns were actually startled that the Water Melody Pce hade knocking. It was normal to be apprehensive about the Water Melody Pce because no single major celestial n actually dared to mess up with the three heretic pces alone.

    Even the Celestial Orthodox Sect had to seek the aid of the other major orthodox ns in order to deal with the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    These three heretic pces are extremely secretive and powerful at the same time. Unless there is a reason to mess around with them, no one is foolhardy to do so.

    Perhaps the three great saints had the same thoughts as Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui as well as theyughed. "It is only one great saintess. Do we even need to fear a lone trouble maker?"

    Great Saint You Tianlong even put on some brave words in front of Ji Yuan. "Brother Ji Yuan, don''t worry. We are all here to support you!"

    Ji Yuan returned him an awkward look and kept his thoughts secret; Yea. Support. So I am still the main cannon fodder. When things go south, all of you will switch sides as always.

    In Ji Yuan''s lifetime, he had been betrayed by numerous ''great supports'' from his so call ''brothers''. But that is why he has always been a leader because he has always been a leading cultivator. This is actually his great quality because he can close his eyes to the numerous ''bad deeds'' of ''brothers'' and people trust him with the real leadershipter on.

    That was why after the epic deste beast attack on the Five Heavens Peaks, there were still many cultivators that had missed Ji Yuan''s presence even though he was ''not'' around.

    Great Saint Gu Gui not wanting to lose to Great Saint You Tianlong immediately said with great righteousness, "Brother Ji Yuan, I will there to fight alongside with you!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Thank you Brother Gu Gui. You are indeed my good brother!" But he was secret cursing; Alongside with me huh? So I''m still the main cannon fodder.

    Great Saint Tian Shan was also patting his chest, "Brother Ji Yuan, you can trust me too. I will lend you whatever support you need!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Brother Tian Shan, you are such a wonderful brother! Thank you in advance!" But he was cursing; why don''t you say you are just my moral support?

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess said together, "My lord, we will fight with you together!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he tried to put on a manly front. "No need, I can handle it alone." But he was secretly pleased. These maidens are willing to put their lives for me. Ji Yuan, as an alpha male, you can''t put their lives at risk. You ought to protect them.

    Then he added a thought; one of these days, I will die because of I love my face more than my life.

    Bai Qianfeng tugged him by his sleeve, "My lord, shall I settle this intruder for you?"

    Ji Yuan was secretlyforted and even more delighted; Qianfeng, you''re the best!

    But he replied shamelessly and full of thickness, "Qianfeng, I alone can handle this. You take a backseat and watch the show. It is only a lone cultivator and not the entire Water Melody Pce. Let see what she wants first."

    Bai Qianfeng whispered, "Alright my lord¡­" But she quickly added. "This foe is really dangerous. I can sense great danger outside."

    As an immortal cultivator, Bai Qianfeng''s extrasensory perception with her divine sense is more formidable than any celestial practitioner.

    But Ji Yuanughed it off, "Don''t worry! I can surely manage it!"

    In front of Bai Qianfeng, all his manly vibes ballooned to ungodly levels. Even if she wants the moon from him now, he will answer. "I will get the moon for you, Qianfeng!"

    And so, they went outside the inner citadel hall of the Dark Mistress'' Citadel and were shocked to see that the entire sun had been blotted out and the entire mountain peak was dark now even though it was now in mid-day.

    A gigantic blue phoenix was fluttering above the pce grounds, blotting out the sun; its gigantic wings were so gigantic that the entire mountain peak was covered by the shadows of its wings.

    This was an epic ninth rank divine beast!

    Ji Yuan immediately gulped. An epic seventh rank deste beast is already so hard to beat and now he is facing a ninth rank divine beast¡­

    Not only was Ji Yuan stunned by the sight but everyone else was too!

    All around the pce ground, dozens of cultivators on the side of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect were flung from their flying mounts to the ground and everyone was looking helplessly at the sight of the gigantic blue phoenix.

    Even Ling Feiyue was flustered. It was because there were supposed to be several powerful defensive arrays in the mountains around.

    Unless the Spirit Blue Moon Sect has permitted it, it is quite impossible for anyone to barge with their flying mounts in broad daylight but against an epic ninth rank divine beast, her sect is truly helpless.<sub> </sub>

    "This is¡­" everyone was stunned and lost their wits all of a sudden.

    Even ten great saints may not be able to contest against a single ninth rank epic divine beast!

    Ji Yuan could only mutter helplessly, "Why don''t you bring the entire Water Melody Pce instead?"

    Great Saint Gu Gui, Great Saint Tian Shan and Great Saint You Tianlong were now trying to show that they were friends of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect so they mouthed a weak protest. "Who dares to intrude here?"

    But to Ji Yuan, it sounded like they were fanning the mes of war and he was cursing them silently: we should be keeping a low profile at this moment¡­

    The oppressive aura thate from above the blue phoenix began to exert its profound strength on everyone as the powerful female cultivator on top of the blue phoenix''s head began to echo coldly. "Who is Li Yuan? Ask him to get out. How dare he seduce my core prot¨¦g¨¦!"

    From her oppressive aura, everyone can tell that she is a peaked great saintess. That is her profound strength!

    Although the intruder''s profound aura was extremely oppressive, Ling Feiyue had raised her profound aura to dispel the oppressive aura in an act of defiance. "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue here. Who dares to intrude into my Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    The blue phoenix lowered its head and a thin old woman with grey hair could be seen standing regally on top.

    "Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi from the Water Melody Pce. Where is Li Yuan?! Ask him toe out now!" This Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi looked extremely upset today.

    "Youngss, get out of my way! Get me Li Yuan here or don''t me me for demolishing your mountain peak!"

    Ling Feiyue was startled that someone else had actually dared to call her a youngss¡­

    The three great saints from the other three major unorthodox ns were secretly muttering. "Who is this Li Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan quickly stepped forward and announced awkwardly. "Erm, I am Li Yuan¡­"

    Great Saint Gu Gui, Great Saint Tian Shan and Great Saint You Tianlong, Chen Yi and Ling Tianshui were all gasping with shock. Ji Yuan is Li Yuan?!

    "So you are that beardless good-for-nothing Li Yuan that bullies my core prot¨¦g¨¦?" Shui Xisi immediately stared at him coldly.

    Ji Yuan was stunned. When did I ever bully your core prot¨¦g¨¦? All of a sudden he had remembered Shui Qingqing. Yea, when did I ever bully her?

    "Although I am a beardless cultivator but I am definitely not a good-for-nothing. And when did I ever bully your core prot¨¦g¨¦?" He had frankly remembered that he had shown her a great deal of care. He honestly can swear that he had never touched her or anything¡­

    No wait, it is the opposite way! He had suddenly remembered that Shui Qingqing had grabbed him by his arms¡­

    He smiled weakly to himself. Surely she isn''t that petty?

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "Ever since my core prot¨¦g¨¦ has returned to her sect, she has been praising your profound skills. How dare you belittle the profound arts of the Water Melody Pce!"

    Ji Yuan was truly stunned. When did I ever belittle the profound arts of the Water Melody Pce? Did Shui Qingqing misunderstand something or what? Or is it a plot to seize the celestial sword that he had given to Bai Qianfeng?

    Ji Yuan looked at the rest awkwardly, "Don''t look at me like this. I didn''t do anything funny at all¡­"

    Shui Xisi raised her fingers before saying coldly, "Disy your divine sword and we shall have a match to see who has the superior skills. Do you have the guts to fight an old woman or you are just a beardless child that needs milk?"

    Ji Yuan immediately growled. "Who is the one that needs milk?!" He had disyed his celestial sword.

    Shui Xisi smirked coldly, "Then let''s fight for a hundred rounds!"

    Ji Yuan immediately rose to the challenge. "A hundred rounds it shall be then!"

    Little Princess gasped, "My lord, don''t! She is dangerous!"

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were now holding onto his arms, "Don''t ept her challenge¡­"

    But Ji Yuan has never one to shy away from a fight especially it is a challenge from the same cultivation level. So he had disyed his celestial sword.

    Ling Feiyue cursed him softly, "My lord, you''re not her match¡­"

    Even Bai Qianfeng was saying, "I can fight her off for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan whispered to their ears, "I need to ept this challenge or our new allies will think that we''re weak. They are also watching me keenly now. If I back off from this fight then they may have second thoughts on bing our allies. This won''t be good for the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    With a soft resignation, Ling Feiyue could only watch him with a helpless look. "Be careful, my lord."

    With a sh, Shui Xisi had alreadynded gently on the pce ground to coldly greet Ji Yuan with her malevolent air.

 Chapter 166 The Water Melody Palace (2)

    Ji Yuan observed Shui Xisi keenly before he raised his eyes challengingly at her. "So where is your divine sword?"

    ? "Hmph! I don''t use one." She replied nonchntly and lit a slow smile to reflect her confidence.

    Ji Yuan guessed that she must be a power cultivator and he was immediately wary.

    But he could not resist a chuckle, "Just don''t suddenly unsheathe your sword after you have regretted it." He had purposely said that to prevent her from drawing her sword. When a power cultivator is in possession of a divine sword, they can often be even deadlier.

    Power cultivators usually do not depend on their weapons because they can muster vast amount of profound power with their profound strength.

    Unarmedbat had a huge advantage in profound power over weapons; their profound power will not be restrained and they could muster 100% of their profound power.

    Most power cultivators are able to gain 200% profound power with 100% of their profound strength depending on the type of power profound art that they are executing. Saint level power cultivators are often extreme power practitioners.

    Should a cultivator uses a medium like a sword, only 70% of the profound strength can be channeled through as profound power. The better the grade of a sword, the more profound power can be generated.

    Should a cultivator attack with sword energies, only 40% of the profound strength can be channeled as profound power and it will weaken over a range. That is why sword energies practitioner generally do not have a great deal of advantage against the more powerful cultivators that specialize in profound power and defensive profound auras.

    When a cultivator is a saint, only divine swords and powerful profound arts are the most important. Not fanciful swordy or weak attacks. It is because a saint level cultivator often has formidable defenses and regeneration.

    Ji Yuan knew that Shui Xisi was aware that he had a celestial sword but she was not showing any sign of a panic. Therefore he knew that she was unlike any of the other opponents that he had fought before.

    He immediately swung his sword and two beaming reflection of light shed forth from his sword. This was his perfect divine harmony form as two beautiful halos extended from his sword.

    He was now grinning. Be prepared to be impressed by me! My profound power as you can see isn''t weak at allpared to any of your profound divine art!

    Shui Xisi continued to disy a nonchntly look as though she did not seem to care. The message that she seemed to be sending was. "Can you do better than this?"

    She stared coldly at him before saying, "Maybe I should not call you Li Yuan. You are that Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan nodded with a broad grin. "Indeed." So you are now scared of me?

    "So you are the new Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect that everyone is recently talking about." Shui Xisi hummed coldly as she disyed a disdainful gaze upon Ji Yuan at the same time.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "Indeed I am that Ji Yuan."

    "You look horribly ugly without your beard." Shui Xisi smirked coldly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You ugly old woman!" Ji Yuan shouted back immediately. He had been provoked for sure.

    "Oh no¡­" Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were gasping softly. He just broke a taboo. Never called a high level cultivator an ugly old woman even if she is. This will surely provoke her.

    The Venerable Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce is a cultivation senior and she may not be so ruthless in enemy''s territory. After all she may be only here to teach Ji Yuan a lesson for some slights and that was why she hade alone. It is considered unwise to provoke unnecessary and wiser to maintain some politeness in case things go south all of a sudden.

    But Ji Yuan had now clearly provoked her!

    "Ugly beardless milk boy!"

    "Ugly old woman!!! Old ugly hag!"

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi traded insults even as they closed in onto each other.

    Ji Yuan was on high alert as he positioned his sword carefully in an attack position even as he noted that Shui Xisi''s profound animus seemed to be extremely strong.

    As he walked into his position, he could not resist swinging his sword to fire a burst of devastating sword wave toward her direction. This was a perfect sword energy that sliced through the ground in a straight line like a wall of force toward his opponent.

    In a blink of an eye, the wall of sword energies wave was already upon his target!

    Shui Xisi did not even bother to evade but had raised her fingers to part his sword wave. "What? Is that all you can manage?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was rmed. Her profound power had exceeded his sword wave profound power in order to part his sword energies in this manner.

    "What? Are you an old man already?" Shui Xisi continued to taunt at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This is only an assessment attack. It doesn''t mean anything." He muttered.

    Shui Xisi smirked. "Your sword energies attacks are too weak to affect me. Why don''t we trade blows directly instead of fighting like a pussy?"

    Pussy?!!

    Ji Yuan cursed silently. This old hag is really getting on my nerves...

    Immediately he had confronted her with his sword while Shui Xisi retaliated against him with her fingers.

    In that instant the entire tform was filled with their profound energies as sword and fingers shed against each other.

    A bright golden aura like a phoenix had spread from Shui Xisi''s profound animus as she attacked Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he tried to attack her from all sides but was consistently beaten back. "This is her spirit entity? It is a divine phoenix spirit entity. No wonder she is so confident¡­"

    Shui Xisi was now chasing after Ji Yuan as she attacked furiously against him while Ji Yuan was ying the slow game of trying to exhaust her profound strength.

    "Ji Yuan, you are a saint level cultivator and you don''t even have a spirit entity yet? What a joke!" she taunted him.

    Ji Yuan shouted back angrily, "Haha! Old hag! I do have a spirit entity but I''m afraid that if I use my spirit entity, you will be scared out of your wits!"

    Xiang Li shouted angrily too in his soul sea, "Yea! If Ie out then you will surely shit in your panties!"

    Ji Yuan quickly said to Xiang Li, "Erm, please don''t say anything like this and please let me focus on my duel. You''repletely useless and we both know it..."

    Xiang Li: ...

    In several blinks of an eye, they had already exchanged dozens of attacking strokes as the wind forces from their exchanges created several outburst heat waves around them.

    All the onlookers were gasping and was nervous about the oue of the duel. This was an epic fight between two powerful great saints!

    One side was the Dark Lord Ji Yuan of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the other side was the Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi of the Water Melody Pce.

    The three great saints from the three other unorthodox ns had naturally ced their bets on Shui Xisi side but they were pretending to cheer for Ji Yuan...

    Even if Ji Yuan is now their Brother Ji Yuan but he is only a sword cultivator. It is hard for anyone to believe that he will be able to win a power cultivator great saint and moreover this is the top cultivator from the Water Melody Pce!

    Ji Yuan could feel the icy profound energies of her profound power. She is a negative power cultivator?

    But he had no time to think as he was astonished by her speed attacks.

    Very soon, they had already fought for close to a hundred rounds without showing any sign of weakness.

    Ji Yuan shouted angrily, "Why don''t we fight three hundred rounds instead of one hundred rounds?"<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi smirked. "On! Don''t you regret it!"

    Ling Feiyue almost fainted on the spot when Ji Yuan had initialized lengthening the duel. "Ji Yuan, you¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was also shaking her head, "He doesn''t want to lose¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly, "It is because of his undying fighting spirit?"

    Little Princess had turned ashen. "I have heard that the Venerable Pce Mistress is really strong and it is true. She is not even fighting at her best yet and it is a mistake for Ji Yuan to y the slow game with her."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Ji Yuan is a sword cultivator. He is at a disadvantage against a superior power cultivator."

    Xue Qianxue was smiling all of a sudden, "That is because his opponent is an old woman andck the stamina to fight a prolong fight with him. This may well be his tactics!"

    Bai Qianfeng whispered to her sisters, "Then it may be the wrong tactics. This Venerable Pce Mistress, she isn''t an old woman."

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess: ???

    "Her vitality is quite young. This is only her disguise." Bai Qianfeng simply said. Her divine sense was able to read a cultivator''s vitality as well since she is an immortal cultivator.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "She isn''t an old woman? Then Ji Yuan is really in trouble¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi had changed her finger stances to a w stance as she disyed dozens of attacks on Ji Yuan. "Do you think that your sword attacks are faster than my fingers and ws?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned. He had thought that he was fast enough with his right sword arm but this old woman was really faster than him. In an instant, he was struck four times as the profound power of Shui Xisi burst through his body.

    But he forced out a smile, "Heh! Three hundred rounds are far from over yet. You still can''t get me yet. Don''t forget that it isn''t that easy to kill a great saint even though I may not have any profound defenses."

    He had suddenly realized that she had purposely lowered her profound power earlier and now she was increasing her profound power against him. He had indeed fallen into his own dumb trap; she had purposely lured him into a sense ofcency.

    All of a sudden he could feel the icy thrusts of her attacks as she repeatedly wed his face while smirking delightfully.

    Damn! She is like a fierce tigress...she keeps aiming my face...

    He was getting frustrated and irritated. Therefore he moved away from her to disy his sword bursts on her while trying to maintain a distance from her.

    Trying was the word but she had followed him keenly like an unshakable opponent and soon she had struck him several more times.

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly; this was a totally one-side duel¡­

    He was now defending more than attacking. No matter how hard he had tried, he just could not get past her formidable defenses. It was as though there was a powerful inertia force around her.

    "Hey old hag! Do you what is called honorable fight at all? Stop hitting my face!" Ji Yuan was now really irritated.

    "You are so ugly. Why do you care about your face?" Shui Xisi mocked him with several soft chuckles.

    Ji Yuan: ...

    But he maintained his shamelessness by shouting out loud. "Is this the best that you can do? Very soon, the three hundred rounds will be up. You are really an old woman!"

    Shui Xisi smiled coldly as she shed above him, "We shall see, you beardless old goat. Divine Exaltation Art!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could feel that his profound strength was being drained by her. He was startled. "What the hell is this?!"

    Before he knew what was happening, he was crushed under the weight of her profound power and he had crashed on his back to the ground.

    Shui Xisiughed, "Now you know that the Water Melody Pce isn''t¡­"

    All of a sudden she gasped as Ji Yuan swung his sword with an explosive force as he disyed the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon in an upward swing on her.

    "Haha! You have fallen for my ruse too!" Ji Yuan was nowughing with great delight.

    There was a thunderous outburst of profound energies as Shui Xisi''s profound animus absorbed the attack but not before melting her face.

    She had aimed his face so now he was aiming back at her face! Haha!

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan got a shock of his life as the most alluring face of a beautiful goddess had suddenly shed in front of him. This Shui Xisi was actually a heavenly beauty on par with the four great celestial beauties!

    Shui Xisi gasped as she quickly used her sleeves to cover her face before the brilliant light of the profound energies had died down.

    At the same time she had used her fingers to poke Ji Yuan''s eyes with a sudden attack that instantly blinded him. In that moment when Ji Yuan was gasping at her peerless face, she hadunched her attack.

    Ji Yuan literally got blinded and he was really bleeding from his eye sockets.

    In the next instant she had ascended onto her gigantic blue phoenix.

    Everyone was gasping that there was actually a cultivator that could levitate herself through the air just by the sheer disy of her profound animus. This was startling to everyone and left everyone speechless¡­

    Ji Yuan was still gasping silently and he was blinking his eyes painfully, "That is a most beautiful and sinful face. So that is the true face of the Venerable Pce Mistress? Why the heck did she disguise herself as an old woman for?"

    Slowly he picked himself up and he was suddenly aching; he had broken a few ribs and he was even limping. But that was a good fight.

    He thought, "It is a lucky thing that she is only here to teach me a lesson or two and isn''t too serious. She is really a formidable opponent. What the heck is that Divine Exaltation Art? Half of my profound strength is suddenly voided by her¡­"

    He was sighing all of a sudden; he did not have a powerful internal profound art to resist her Divine Exaltation Art. This was his weakness as a pure sword cultivator.

    As he got up, he could hear the mutterings of the onlookers;

    "Dark Lord Ji Yuan is really impressive." The three great saints from the three major unorthodox ns were praising him immediately.

    "Why did Shui Xisi flee all of a sudden?"

    "Ji Yuan has won?"

    "Maybe it is because the three hundred rounds are up?"

    All of a sudden there was a cold echo that came from above, "Ji Yuan! You beardless old goat! The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is opening in three months'' time. If you have the guts thene to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for our showdown!"

    Shui Xisi was now wearing a half-mask with two silver wings by her side that only showed her lower face.

    She took ast look at Ji Yuan before urging her blue phoenix to fly off.

    With that the gigantic blue phoenix had taken off as the strong winds that were generated by the pping of wings stirred fiercely, sending many of the weaker cultivators to fly upside down and crashing them whenever the fierce winds took them.

    Shui Xisi was actually astonished that Ji Yuan was able to fight her for so long and was secretly thinking. "He isn''t weak. It''s just that his temper is a little foul. But he actually isn''t ugly even without his beard. It is no wonder that Qingqing keeps singing his praises. Consider this a lesson taught to you today by the Water Melody Pce."

    All the cultivators below were in shock by the revtion that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be opening soon. This is the greatest trial in the Celestial Realm where all the celestial fraternities canpete against one another for cultivation resources!

    The four maidens had immediately surrounded Ji Yuan and were checking him with great concern. "My lord, are you alright? Your eyes, does it still hurt?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "I''m alright¡­" But his thoughts were still on the sinful look of Shui Xisi. This time his heart was really moved. It was exactly like the first time that he had caught sight of Xia Jiajia.

    Even Xiang Li could not resist a chuckle in his soul sea, "She is equally as peerless as my best friend Qianfeng. So when are we going to pursue her?"

    Ji Yuan immediately replied with a frown. "Can''t you see that she isn''t interested in me?"

    Then he was grinning. "Maybe not if I can have my manly beard back¡­"

 Chapter 167 Shui Xisiâ€™s Background

    Ji Yuan had just taken a quick nap; half a day as a matter of fact.

    It did not take Ji Yuan long to recover from his external injuries. Even his eyes were looking good again.

    As for his broken ribs, he would need several more days more to fully recover but that was not any hinder to him.

    The recovery rate of a great saint cultivation is indeed extremely astonishing as long as it is not any internal injuries which may need months and years to recover without any profound pills.

    He was rubbing his chin as he recalled his duel with Shui Xisi. She had indeed taught him a lesson but at the same time he knew that she had actually stayed her hand. It was because she had used her fingers to break his bones, ws to scratch through his puny profound defenses but did not use her palms.

    Palms are the most dangerous attacks from a power cultivator, able to inflict internal injuries due to the shockwaves that can be generated.

    And after exchanging blows with her, he immediately knew that she had a strong internal profound strength which means that her palm techniques are equally as good. But she had restrained herself.

    She had made a point to him; don''t mess up with my core prot¨¦g¨¦.

    To be more exact, she was warning him not to mess up with Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing. But as there were others in the ce, she did not want them to know that she was actually referring to her sessor Shui Qingqing.

    Ji Yuan definitely knew all her subtle points.

    He was rubbing his chins with a slow grin, "What if I mess up with you indeed?"

    This Shui Xisi was more to his taste. Very fiery and hot to handle.

    But he soon remembered that he had a lot ofmitments now and shook his head. His days of flirting with the beautiful maidens of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are definitely over ever since he was baited by Xia Jiajia to take Shangguan Yan''Er as his first consort.

    "Oh well, that is quite a fun fight¡­" He sighed softly. He was actually not thinking about the fight but her goddess look that captivated him. Why is she disguising herself as an old woman when she is more beautiful than anyone?

    His thoughts were quickly broken by Xiaobai who had jumped into his bed.

    ''Xiaobai'' quickly resumed her human form and was looking mncholy at him. "My lord¡­"

    "Qianfeng, what is wrong?" So engrossed was his thoughts that he had not realized that Bai Qianfeng was in the same room as him.

    "I am a little afraid." Bai Qianfeng was suddenly sighing softly.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Qianfeng, what is wrong?"

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "That Shui Xisi isn''t a simple cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly. "You saw her mount?"

    "Yea. That is an epic ninth rank divine beast¡­" Ji Yuan had recalled it. It was a terrifying sight to behold.

    "Do you think a mere great saintess can tame an epic ninth rank divine beast?"

    Ji Yuan pondered for a while. "Maybe her ancestors have trapped this epic ninth rank divine beast with celestial arrays and force it into a contract with them? These sorts of things happen quite frequently."

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head, "Trust me. The Icy Paragon Bluebird cannot be tamed by just anyone. You can''t contract it even using an immortal contract."

    "But that blue phoenix seems to be her mount? If it is not contracted then how do you exin it?" Ji Yuan knowledge of the various celestial cultivation practices was really limited. But then, none of his contemporaries know that it is impossible to tame the blue phoenix because this was actually beyond their cultivation knowledge.

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes as she trembled. "She definitely has an immortal background."

    "Immortal background?" Ji Yuan looked at her. "Surely not. Immortals can''t exist here, right?"

    "You have forgotten about me." Bai Qianfeng said.

    "Right¡­" He had forgotten. He was too used to having Bai Qianfeng around that he did not see her as an immortal cultivator but his consort.

    "So she is an immortal?"

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head. "She may not be. She isn''t an old woman, do you know?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to be shocked. "She isn''t an old woman?!"

    Xiang Li had a wry smile in his soul sea, "You''re lying to Sister Qianfeng, you know¡­"

    "Shut up and keep it a secret¡­" He quickly said to Xiang Li.

    Bai Qianfeng exined. "Her vitality is too young. She may be a child of the immortals."

    Ji Yuan quickly asked. "The immortals can have children?"

    Bai Qianfeng replied, "Extremely difficult but not impossible. Only the first generation and second generation may have a tiny chance to have children. Most immortals are third generation immortals."

    "Qianfeng then which generation immortal are you?" Ji Yuan curiously asked.

    "I''m a second generation immortal."

    "Hehe then we may have a chance to have a baby in the future." Ji Yuan smiled with a relief.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled gently. The odds are actually extremely low but she kept quiet.<sub> </sub>

    "Since Qianfeng is a second generation immortal then you must have very powerful first generation parents? Haha. I will like to meet your parents one day." Ji Yuan teased her.

    "I don''t have any parents." Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng exined. "I am an immortal. My bloodline is the second generation. I am born from the spiritual rocks of the Gods Realm just before it got split into the three known realms. First generation immortals are far stronger than me but most of them are dead now."

    "Erm, Qianfeng you''re a rock?" Ji Yuan was speechless.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Almost all immortalse from rocks except for the Ascended Immortals."

    Ji Yuan was thinking as he stared at her. How can a rock be so beautiful and so soft?

    Of course Ji Yuan did not know that while Bai Qianfeng is no longer a rock. After eons of years, the spiritual rocks are able to form a sentient being that can take the shape of immortal beings. To this day, the third generation immortals are still being birthed in this way.

    Bai Qianfeng could see his perplexed look so she quickly said, "Little Princess is a union between two immortals. She has a special bloodline. But don''t tell her yet. She doesn''t seem to know."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled, "Her mother is an immortal?" Then he was smiling weakly. "She is a little weak¡­"

    "By immortal standards, the Sagess Alyssa is pretty weak. But she is good enough to beat most of the great saints around." Bai Qianfeng exined gently.

    "I am on par with her but not Shui Xisi¡­this Shui Xisi is stronger than an immortal cultivator¡­" Ji Yuan said weakly.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Not necessary. It is because the Sagess Alyssa got her eighth realm cultivation strength restricted in the Celestial Realm while Shui Xisi is truly a peaked seventh realm cultivator. Therefore it still remains unseen. But then I got a feeling the Sagess Alyssa will not be her match as well."

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly. "Is she that formidable? How do you tell? I mean I know that she isn''t disying her full profound strength but this is too ridiculous to think that she may defeat an eighth realm immortal."

    Bai Qianfeng said. "Did you see how she is able to levitate from such a great height? What if I tell you that not even an immortal like the Sagess Alyssa is able to do it with her current profound strength?"

    "Yea, I saw¡­I was shocked." Ji Yuan recalled his disbelief at that time.

    He was not the only one at that time that was stunned. Everyone was too.

    True levitation did not exist until the time of their immortal ascensions in which the great saints must ovee their final tribtion. Only when they have seeded then they can shed off their golden bodies into pure energies for their final ascension. Only then will they be lighter than air.

    "Erm, don''t tell me that her lightless profound art is really so formidable?" This was the only conclusion that he could think of but even then he was now babbling because he could not believe it either.

    "She has an immortal sword around her waist. That is why she is able to levitate. It is just a simple trick." Bai Qianfeng exined.

    "Darn! She lies to me. She has an immortal-step divine sword hidden around her waist¡­wait a minute¡­" Ji Yuan was suddenly gulping. "An immortal sword?! How do you know?"

    Ji Yuan had never heard of anyone possessing an immortal sword before. This was the first and he was stunned.

    "How will I not know? The name of her immortal sword is the Astronomic Eulogy Divine Sword. This immortal sword is the heritage sword of my arch enemy the Great Goddess Alice."

    "Really?" Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly. The Eternal Goddess aka the Great Goddess Alice of the Goddess Theocracy is actually not a myth.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "The Great Goddess Alice is also the keeper of the divine phoenixes in the Immortal Realm and her mount is the nine-tail crimson phoenix. All phoenixes bow in her presence. If this still doesn''t prove that this Shui Xisi is rted to the Great Goddess Alice, I really don''t know how shees to have the Icy Paragon Bluebird. If she has the bloodline of the Great Goddess Alice then that Icy Paragon Bluebird isn''t contracted to her but instead is following her to be her protector at the same time."

    "Also, she seems to know the opening time of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This foreknowledge obviously doesn''te from the celestial cultivators but from the Immortal Realm."

    "My lord, please don''t cross her path. She isn''t someone that you or me can handle at the moment."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan was smiling weakly. This Shui Xisi seems to be too much of a challenge now¡­

    "I don''t think she is the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice. If she is, she should be in the Immortal Realm and not in the Celestial Realm." Ji Yuan concluded proudly. His intelligence +10.

    "The children of the immortals can''t cultivate their golden bodies in the Immortal Realm because there are no divine tribtions in the Immortal Realm. They only have a mortal life span in the Immortal Realm and must be sent to the lower realms for their divine tribtions." She exined quietly.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt his intelligence -100.

    "Oh. Haha."

    With Bai Qianfeng around to share with him the juicy knowledge of the Immortal Realm, Ji Yuan felt that she was like a cultivation cheat that can aid him to understand some of the more forbidden knowledge of the cultivation realms.

    But he quickly tried to distract himself from Shui Xisi now; she is really someone that he can handle now unless he likes to have his face scratched and his eyes poked by her again.

    "Erm, you are saying that Little Princess is the child of the immortals? Really?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "Her father may be a great god and is a first generation deste immortal. Therefore it is unwise not to provoke the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Qianfeng, you should have told me 300 years earlier¡­"

    He could not resist saying a prayer for the six major orthodox ns. "Good luck to you guys¡­"

    "Qianfeng, since the two of us are alone. Why don''t we do a quickie before we look for the others?" Ji Yuan said quietly and he was kissing her cheeks now.

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes as she nodded shyly. "A quick one then¡­"

    Xiang Li was beaming delightfully, "Hehe!"

    Ji Yuan cuddled her tightly, "I must be the luckiest man in the world right now¡­"

 Chapter 168 Ji Yuan, Who Do You Love The Most?

    "Where are Qianxue, Feiyue and Little Princess? They have already gone to the cultivation chamber?" He was cuddling Bai Qianfeng in her spirit fox form in his arms as he looked around for them.

    Just as he was walking around to search for them, he had bumped into Ling Tianshui.

    "Yes, they are in the cultivation chamber. I just saw them there." Ling Tianshui smiled as she said to him when they had identally met along the pce grounds.

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Thank you, thank you!"

    Ling Tianshui suddenly lowered her voice to a whisper, "Are you in a hurry?"

    Ji Yuan knew what she meant naturally but right now, he was with Xiang Li and Bai Qianfeng so it was not too convenient for his affair with Ling Tianshui to be made known.

    So he replied nonchntly while maintaining a cool distance, "Yea. I am really in a hurry."

    Ling Tianshui looked a little disappointed but she disyed a forceful smile. "Well, when you have the time we can always have a little chat."

    But still she seemed reluctant to leave so she asked. "That silver hair maiden? Who exactly is she? She has quickly disappeared. She must have a most formidable background, am I right? After all, she is a peaked great saintess like Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "She is a friend of Feiyue and I. She is just here to lend us a helping hand. As for her background, I''m sure that Feiyue had already told you that it is a secret and she can''t reveal it."

    Ling Tianshui sighed softly as she nodded.

    "Well, see you soon enough¡­" she muttered as she turned around, clearly disappointed that Ji Yuan did not have the time for herpany.

    Actually Ji Yuan was looking at her intently and was secretly shaking his head that he was letting such a fine maiden got away from his eyes.

    But he knew he was ying with fire so he had to be careful about this as he did not know what Ling Feiyue would react or think. Although she has a gentle demeanor but she is never shy to beat him up for his misdeeds.

    He soon continued on his way to look for Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess by walking toward the cultivation chamber.

    As he approached the cultivation chamber, he was soon frowning. It was because he could already hear the giggling sounds of the three maidens and they were gossiping about him again.

    "I thought they may be discussing about the True Sacred Saint Profound Art but instead they are gossiping about me again¡­" Ji Yuan was shaking his head as he muttered silently.

    Ling Feiyue was heard giggling. "Ji Yuan is so funny. He is like the divine lion in one of my mountain backyards."

    "You mean he is as brave as the lion?" Xue Qianxue was giggling too.

    "No!" Ling Feiyueughed. "He is like the white divine lion that is trying to make everything white. That white divine lion is the only lion that is white. But in less than a hundred years, all the divine lionesses and lions in that mountain backyard had suddenly be white in coloring."

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were allughing nonstop. "He is trying to turn everyone beardless now¡­"

    Little Princess was suddenly asking. "Feiyue, Qianxue. You know that he is a rascal sometimes. How did youe to like him? Are there any romances between the two of you?"

    Xue Qianxue was not shy to chuckle softly. "I don''t know if there are any romances between us. We have only met for the first time a hundred years back and it end up quite disastrous for the two of us. But I do admire him for a long time. But we aren''t courting yet. As a matter of fact¡­"

    She was suddenly giggling. "As you have already known, he got freaking scared by me and he ran off for his breakthrough."

    The other two maidensughed jovially. "Yes, because of that ''bath tub incident''."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly.

    At that time he did not really feel that Xue Qianxue was really a real threat yet and he was ying along with Xia Jiajia and ''Ling Feiyang'' as he was also curious to know what they were up to. Or rather, he was trying to flirt around Xia Jiajia. Then he had to be so clumsy as to drop into Xue Qianxue''s bath tub and even touched her on her boobs by ident. If he did not flee at that time for his breakthrough, he really cannot predict what would really happenter.

    Since Xue Qianxue is an orthodox cultivator, she will likely to only target only him because he was the cause of her humiliations. It was better for him to suffer alone than causing his sect to be in trouble because of him. How the heck did he know that Xue Qianxue was only trying to get his attention back then and he had badly screwed this possible romance?

    But even if Xue Qianxue was interested in him back then but what he did was quite unpardonable. So even if he knew that she was interested in him but there was still a big chance that he would be silenced to keep her honor intact.

    Xue Qianxue was suddenly sighing. "A hundred yearster, he hade to look for me again. But he was not exactlying to look for me but to look for Xia Jiajia. At that time, I just want to befriend him but¡­"

    She giggled softly. "Then things happen all of a sudden. Before I know what is happening, we are already¡­*chuckle*"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "He really got the boldness of a lion."

    Then she was sighing heavily. "But I am not so lucky as Sister Qianxue. I had met Ji Yuan the same time as her but I got a cold treatment and bullying from him. At that time, he was only interested in Xia Jiajia and I had got no ce at all in his heart."

    "Poor Sister Feiyue¡­" the other two maidens agreed.

    "I had met him by an ident again. We got into a fight together because I thought that he was bullying someone so I challenged him to a duel just to teach him a lesson or two. After that, we got to know a little better and we even entered the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials together. At that time, I didn''t know that he is Ji Yuan but he obviously knew about my identity."

    Then Ling Feiyue was giggling. "I don''t know if the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials counted as a romance or not. He was so nice as to dedicate a poem to me at that time."

    "So lucky¡­" Xue Qianxue muttered.

    "It is so unfair¡­" Little Princess was sighing enviously.

    "I had thought that we were going to have a good start in our romances but after the trials had ended, he had actually broken my heart and initiated a break off with me." Ling Feiyue was sighing hatefully. "And we didn''t even officially start our romance yet. He is too badass¡­"

    "Sister Qianxue, you should know what happened next. He was actually going to look for you. Between the two of us, you have a more important ce in his heart." Ling Feiyue inhaled heavily.

    No, this isn''t true at all. The two of you are equally important in my heart. At that time, I had thought that the two of you had a feud and I did not want to hurt you¡­

    Ji Yuan was silently saying while sighing in his heart.

    "I had never had any romance before that. At that time, my heart was really broken by him." Ling Feiyue was suddenly mncholy as she recalled what had happened.

    "Sister Feiyue, sorry." Xue Qianxue was trying tofort her.

    "How did you end up together then?" Little Princess asked curiously.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyueughed jovially as they replied at the same time. "We trapped him on top of a deste mountain peak and forced him to ept us at the same time¡­"

    "Our romances with him aren''t as fantastic as the others." Xue Qianxue chuckled.

    "At least it is better than mine." Little Princess sighed. "I have none to speak of except for the spirit jewelries that he had brought for me while we are at Mayhem Rising City¡­"

    No, that is not true at all. We had plenty of romances in the Dream Trial. Ji Yuan righteously replied to himself.

    In the meantime Bai Qianfeng nibbled on Ji Yuan''s fingers with a guilty look. She had plenty of romances with Ji Yuan inside the Dream Trial¡­

    But all of a sudden when she had recalled that her romantic start with Ji Yuan started when he had tossed her body out of her crystal coffin, she began to bite him hard.

    Ouch!

    Qianfeng, why did you suddenly bite me so hard for?

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly as she continued to bite him hard.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; Women are so hard to understand. Just a moment ago, she is sucking sweetly on my fingers and the next moment, she is biting me hard¡­

    It was at this moment that Ji Yuan had decided to enter the chamber practice by pretending to be clumsy as he dragged his foot.

    This immediately alerted the three saintesses as they quieted down immediately.

    As he entered the practice chamber, he began to grin as soon as he saw them. "I love all of you. How have you been?"

    He silently said; as long as we are together, there will always be plenty of chances for romances together.

    "My lord, are you alright?"

    "You have recovered from your injuries?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan patted his chest hard and grinned. "Yea. I have fully recovered¡­"

    All of a sudden Little Princess had poked him hard on his chest with her fingers and he had suddenly turned ashen.

    "Hmph! Liar." Little Princess hummed.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I''m really alright. This really doesn''t bother me at all. Shall we get start on the True Sacred Saint Profound Art instead? We shall let Qianfeng to instruct us. She shall be our Celestial Teacher for the next three months. Haha¡­"

    At this moment Bai Qianfeng had also assumed her human form.

    Ling Feiyue was holding on a scroll but she was smiling to Ji Yuan as she asked. "My lord. Say, who do you like the most among us?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned.

    This was a nuke question!

    He had long anticipated that they would ask this question sooner orter but it would be in private. Therefore his answer had long been prepared and that was, "I love you the most."

    But now Ling Feiyue was asking him in front of all the others.

    "Who do you like the most?" Even Xue Qianxue was looking at him with great anticipation.

    Little Princess was holding her breath as she looked at him with mncholy eyes.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes to ponder quickly. If it was the others, they would probably answer. "I love all of you equally." This would be most brilliant standard answer that would not offend any of the maidens.

    Except that he was too smart to know that it would not work because Xue Qianxue was too devilish to be fooled despite her innocent appearance. She would probably shoot him back with another question that he had not anticipated.

    "So, who do you like the most?" Xue Qianxue prompted again. "You have not answered Sister Feiyue yet."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. I bet you must be the one that asked Feiyue to ask me this question because she is too frank and you have made used of her.

    But he replied with a softugh, "Better not. I am afraid it will hurt everyone''s feelings."

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were all saying at the same time. "We promise you we won''t be upset. Come on, please tell us!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "We should begin our closed door cultivation instead¡­"

    "No, you must tell us today!" Ling Feiyue insisted. "Or we will be upset with you."

    "Yea. Ji Yuan, you have better tell us or we will be upset with you. If you tell us, we can promise you that we won''t be angry."

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "Alright then. Just don''t get angry¡­" Although he had appeared to be awkward and at a loss to reply them but this was actually merely an act; he had already prepared his answer after a quick ponder.

    He pretended to sigh sadly. "It is actually Saintess Yuluo¡­"

    This was his ultimate answer to nuke their question!

    Immediately the three maidens all had watery eyes as they looked mncholy.

    Ji Yuan was secretly pleased. They had all fallen for his brilliant answer.

    But the three maidens were only putting on an act. If they did not then they were afraid that Ji Yuan may think that they were heartless.

    Xue Qianxue suddenly lit a lovely smile, "My lord. So, beside Saintess Yuluo, who the second maiden that you love the most?"

    "Quick! Tell us!" Ling Feiyue and Little Princess asked excitingly at the same time.

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted from the sudden question. Xue Qianxue was really too persistent. Her question had just nuked his ultimate answer¡­

    He rolled his eyes before answering weakly, "My mother." He was an orphan so he had never met his mother before.

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly before asking shamelessly again. "What about the third maiden that you love the most?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That will be my little sister." He was forced to reply. Yea, a little sister that I do not even know exist. Qianxue, surely you are not that thick skin to ask me a fourth time? That will be too shameless!

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue discreetly looked at her two other sisters and hinted to them with her eyes¡­

    Little Princess smiled before asking sweetly. "My lord. What about the fourth maiden that you love the most?"

    "Other than your grandmother, cousins, aunts or what whatever blood rtions, who do you like the fourth most?" Xue Qianxue added with an impish smile.

    "Please exclude Xiang Li as well!" Ling Feiyue added with a wry smile.

    Xiang Li was startled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she asked silently. "Why can''t Ji Yuan love me?"

    "Just include Qianxue, Feiyue, Jiajia, Yan''Er, Chengxi and I. So who do you love next?" Little Princess added with a slow smile.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    They are too shameless! They are taking turns to ask me¡­

    Ling Feiyue asked with a faint smile. "So is it Jiajia?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. Don''t fall for their bait. You must never let them know that you like Jiajia the most¡­

    Bai Qianfeng suddenly asked with a woeful look in her eyes. "My lord, I am not in the top three?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned by the sudden question that was raised by Bai Qianfeng. All of a sudden even she had joined in to question him at the same time¡­

    "Erm¡­actually I love all of you equally¡­" He could not believe that he was actually giving the mostmest answer now.

    "Surely there must be an order between us, am I right? How can it be equally?" Ling Feiyue said with some seriousness in her tone as she looked at him.

    I knew it that they will say something like this! Ji Yuan bitterly smiled.

    All of a sudden he was coughing blood.

    "My lord, what happens to you?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I think my injuries are worse than I have expected¡­" He had purposely worsened his own injuries by causing his profound energies to go erratic. "I need to rest for a while¡­"

    He had finally escaped from the questions!

 Chapter 169 Sistersâ€™ Rivalries

    A mysterious maiden in blue had suddenly visited the Water Melody Pce and she looked extremely annoyed today even though she had veiled her face except for her eyes.

    However none of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Water Melody Pce dared to stop her, not even the current Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing.

    It was because even though this veiled maiden in blue was aplete stranger to them but their Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi had given her the special right toe and go as she pleased. Until today, no one knows who she is.

    Right now, she had stormed directly to where Shui Xisi was.

    When Shui Xisi saw her, she began to smile casually. "Leave, all of you." She instructed her attendants and prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    When they had all left, she chuckled softly. "I wonder what brings my elder sister here today?"

    "So you still remember me that you have an elder sister?" The veiled maiden in blue returned coldly.

    "Of course I do! You are my elder sister Feifei and I''m your younger sister Sisi." Shui Xisiughed. "My sister doesn''t seem to be too happy today?"

    "Why did you take my blue phoenix without my knowledge?" the veiled maiden in blue asked coldly.

    Shui Xisiughed. "Sister, you have misunderstood. I didn''t take your blue phoenix. Xiao Ruan had been our ymate since she was little. I was just taking her out for a little y."

    "You had taken Xiao Ruan out so that you can intimidate Ji Yuan. Why?" The veiled maiden in blue said coldly.

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "My sister''s eyes are everywhere. Listen sister, he had bullied my Qingqing. If someone rides over my head, I ought to teach him a lesson, do you agree or not?"

    "You can teach him a lesson but you cannot use my Xiao Ruan for your nefarious purposes."

    Shui Xisi kicked her foot soundly on the ground before she said unhappily. "Sister Saintess Fang Zhenfei, just because you are a year older than me, you really think that you can boss me around? Mother Consort is so prejudice. She gave you Xiao Ruan, hmph!"

    The veiled maiden in blue was indeed Fang Zhenfei. "Mother Consort gave you a crimson phoenix mount as well as her immortal sword. She is already generous toward you. I don''t even have an immortal sword."

    "What is the use of an immortal sword? I can''t use it when and then. But Xiao Ruan, she is different. Can you imagine the look on their faces when I flew her into the midst of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and none of them can stop me!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei hummed coldly, "I am taking Xiao Ruan back. Do not ever touch my Xiao Ruan again or Ji Yuan."

    Just as Saintess Fang Zhenfei had turned around, Shui Xisi smiled coldly. "I had heard that you had a duel with a certain Yuan Ji not long ago. He is actually Ji Yuan, am I right? Don''t tell me that you have actually fallen in love with that uncultured rascal?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei turned around and said coldly. "This is none of the business of my little sister so please mind your own business. If you dare to hurt Ji Yuan in any way, don''t mind me for severing our already fragile sisterhood."

    "So we have no sisterly love over a mere beardless man?" Shui Xisi smiled. "Do you know how ugly he looks when he is beardless?"

    Fang Zhenfei hummed coldly, "And my younger sister is always in an old hag skin and trying to pretending to be ugly. Just because you want to prove that you are older than me? Give it up. You can never change the fact that you are my younger sibling. What if your prot¨¦g¨¦s see your real face one day? They may even think that you are an intruder."

    Shui Xisi smiled, "This won''t happen." But then she lowered her voice to say. "Sister, I don''t get it. What is so good about that Ji Yuan? You sound so defensive about him and so irrational. This is so unlike you. Moreover he is also a beardless and ugly man now. Do you want me to introduce some mates for you?"

    Fang Zhenfei interrupted coldly, "No thanks. Ji Yuan, he is worthy of me. He has already passed all my tests. Even if he has no beard, he is still ten times better than all the bearded men out there."

    With that she had left the ce.

    Shui Xisi was blinking her eyes. Ten times better than all the bearded men out there?

    Then a sly look appeared in her eyes. "I don''t believe. Why don''t I put you to the test as well. You may have passed my sister''s test but you have not yet passed mine yet! Heehee."

    But when she thought of Ji Yuan, there was a slight flush on her countenance. The encounter with Ji Yuan had left her with many sleepless nights as she recalled her fight with him. She had never met such a rude fellow before and moreover she had never really expected for him to survive one hundred rounds of beatings from her.

    In the end they had fought for three hundred rounds and she was even forced to use her unique miracle profound art to gain an advantage over him. Although this was not a fair fight because he was a pure sword cultivator but he had handled very well against her.

    Although she hated to admit it but this Ji Yuan was really quite a formidable fighter and he really got a lot of nerves.

    And she liked men that had a lot of nerves.

    But she must do it discreetly. It was because it was a well-known fact that she did not like Ji Yuan in the past. It was because¡­

    -

    -

    -

    A hundred and fifty years ago¡­

    At a tavern, a big group of cultivators were crowding rowdy in a private room and she was sitting next door.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, you have the most beautiful beard among us. How do you fend off all the beautiful maidens that are always around you?"<sub> </sub>

    "You must be so busy trying to fend off the many attentions from yourself."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Brothers, I am unlike any of you. Although I may flirt but I have never formed any romantic attachment with anyone."

    "Oh? Why so?"

    "Is it because none of the maidens are able to catch your eyes?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Why give up the entire forest for a single tree?"

    He was lying of course. So far, he had not gotten over the abuses by Little Princess and by the sudden leaving of Saintess Yuxian aka Yuluo.

    But because he had wanted to maintain his face, he pretended to boast. The truth was, nothing could ever rece the loss of Yuxian in his heart. He had three failed rtionships in such a short pace of time.

    Little Princess was not considered to be a proper rtionship but he had included it as a failed rtionship. It was more of a forced rtionship. This was a shame that he had never truly recovered and a blemish to his soul sea. And it turned him into a rascal as he sank deeper into depravity.

    "If I can have one of the two Goddess Maidens Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue as my consorts, I will dly give up my life." A cultivator said loudly.

    "Me too!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, what do you think of Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue?" A cultivator was heard asking.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I have never met Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue before. Although they may be rumored to be very beautiful maidens but it may be just rumors. Haha. There are so many beautiful maidens in the fraternity, how is it possible for the two of them to be so much more outstanding than the rest?"

    "I had caught a glimpse of Xue Qianxue in the past. She is really very beautiful." Another cultivator was heard saying.

    "Really? Haha." Ji Yuanughed it off. "Beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder. Although they may be very beautiful on the outside, they may well be venomous in the inside." He was actually thinking of Little Princess when he was talking about Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, you sound like a sour grape. Is it because you know that you have no chance with either of the two Goddess Maidens?"

    Ji Yuan roared withughter. "I have no chance? Mind you! I have one of the most beautiful beards in the fraternity, they should be going over heels over me! Haha."

    Many of the cultivators had a look of disgust in their eyes as they listened to Ji Yuan. It was because they did not believe him at all.

    Finally one of the more courageous cultivators smiled, "Brother Ji Yuan, it is not that we do not believe you but you are a little poor."

    Immediately almost all the cultivators in the room were all roaring withughter; Ji Yuan was indeed very poor.

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, undeterred that he had been mocked by these cultivators. "Even the Venerable Old Hag of the Water Melody Pce don''t mind my poor background, do you think that Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue mind my background at all?"

    "You have flirted with the Venerable Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce?" Many of the cultivators were shocked.

    Ji Yuan cleared his throat with a loud hum, "Of course!"

    Shui Xisi who was listening to their conversations next door almost choked on her drink. "Ji Yuan you! From this day onward, you shall be my number one public enemy!"

    She resisted the temptation of storming their room. If she had made her appearance then everyone would think that Ji Yuan had really flirted with her.

    Therefore she had decided to wait for an opportunity to ambush Ji Yuan when he was alone and to beat him up in secret.

    But after following him in secret for a while, she began to be intrigued by him. There was even a time when she had the opportunity to beat him up but she did not lift her fingers on him. She was even flushing a little as she watched him from afar. What a beautiful man¡­

    "This saintess is not so petty. On ount that you may only be boasting, I''ve decided to spare you for now or else I may be made aughing stock for bullying you."

    The truth was she was in the guise of an old woman and she did not want to ruin her very first impression with Ji Yuan.

    Back to the present, Shui Xisi was smiling. "Ji Yuan, I''m not going to let you fall into my sister''s hand just like this. I will deliver you from her instead!"

    This was actually an excuse to convince herself. It was because she had set a rule in the Water Melody Pce that her prot¨¦g¨¦s must not lust after the men and must disdain the beardless men. This rule to disdain the beardless man was set after she had met Ji Yuan...

    She was still smiling sweetly in secret after the events that had happened at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect; she had actually stormed the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to confront ''Li Yuan'' as her sessor Shui Qingqing was singing her praises for ''Li Yuan'' nonstop. This irritated her especially after learning that ''Li Yuan'' was actually a beardless fellow. But to her pleasant surprise, it turned up that Li Yuan was actually Ji Yuan.

    She was secretly delighted to see him again but she was quite disappointed that he had turned into a beardless cultivator. All of a sudden, the beautiful beard Ji Yuan that was deeply etched in her mind was gone all of a sudden.

    At the same time because she had suddenly realized that Ji Yuan was with Ling Feiyue, she was secretly upset too. Although Ji Yuan and she had not really been introduced to each other yet but she did not want Ji Yuan to belong to any others. Therefore, she did not hesitate to beat him up, not because of Shui Qingqing but because she had a personal vendetta against him.

    Now that she knew that her Sister Saintess Feifei was interested in Ji Yuan, her urgency had suddenly increased because she did not want to lose to her.

    "Ji Yuan, I won''t let you belong to anyone other than me." Shui Xisi was suddenly smiling to herself.

 Chapter 170 Shui Xisis True Appearance

    Ji Yuan had finally settled the maidens with a firm reply, "I really love all of you equally in my heart. If you don''t believe, you can ask Xiang Li. She can''t lie you know."

    "Yea! Xiang Li never lies!" Xiang Li giggled.

    While Ji Yuan took a few days to recover from his injuries, he had secretly made a secret pact with Xiang Li to get out of his current dilemma.

    None of the maidens, including Bai Qianfeng know that Xiang Li was capable of lying. Even Bai Qianfeng who is an immortal cultivator had little experience with a sentient spirit entity like Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li is actually not an ordinary sentient spirit entity that is formed from the soul sea of the deste beasts. She is a million year sentient spirit entity of a trial. Rather than saying that the trials formed her after a long passage of time, it is more proper to say that she hade from Gods Realm even before the three known realms has existed.

    Even Bai Qianfeng looked a little confused because she had never encountered such an ancient sentient spirit entity like Xiang Li before. While the others view Xiang Li as only a sentient spirit entity but only she knows that Xiang Li is actually an immortal spirit that can only be found in the most powerful immortal profound treasures.

    The presence of an immortal spirit can turn an already formidable artefact profound treasure into something even more formidable. Even in the Immortal Realm, immortal spirits are extremely rare just like immortal-step divine swords.

    Until today she had no idea why Xiang Li was with Ji Yuan¡­

    Xiang Li winked to everyone as she giggled, "I swear by my soul sea on this!"

    Ji Yuan was smiling. Except that Xiang Li doesn''t have a soul sea on her own. Haha. He had taught Xiang Li what to say and Xiang Li was now helping him to lie to the maidens.

    Xiang Li, now you are my most useful friend. Haha. He whispered to Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    Even though Xiang Li had materialized outside now but she could still hear him because the two of them were linked together.

    Xiang Li had a weird flush as she giggled back to him secretly. "Really? I am your most useful friend? Hehe." She was really delighted when Ji Yuan was praising her.

    "Alright girls." Ji Yuan began to say seriously. "Isn''t it time for us to practice the True Sacred Saint Profound Art? Remember the taboos when cultivating, especially learning a new cultivation practice; we must be freed from all emotions and distractions or else we may run into a risk of a phenomenon deviation."

    A phenomenon deviation is an emotional state that can cause the cultivators to lose their senses and is considered to be the most distressing thing to happen as it can lead to death or worse, a cripple cultivation core and even permanent paralysis. It is a state when the profound energies within the cultivation core behaved abnormally and even in a reverse order.

    When cultivators cultivate their profound strength to a higher level, they are actually defying the heavens. So when phenomenon deviation urs, the profound energies that the cultivators has painstakingly cultivate to defy the heavens will rebound as a bacsh, causing a phenomenon deviation.

    There are many cases of cultivators that are in a ''mad'' state for several decades and hundreds of years, unable to recognize even their close kin. It is an extremely sad thing to happen.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he emphasized. "Phenomenon deviation can happen to any cultivators especially to power cultivators that are constant learning new cultivation practices. It can also happen to me because this is the first time that I am picking up an internal profound art."

    In the past Ji Yuan never had a risk with the phenomenon deviation because he was a pure sword cultivator. But if he were to pick up the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, there will always be risk at every stage of getting a phenomenon deviation. That is why internal cultivation practices can never be rushed hastily and need the emotional state of the mind to be stable.

    Suddenly all four of the maidens dared not ask him further questions anymore as they started to purge their questions out of their minds. It was because Ji Yuan was right; it will be risky for all of them if they did not put down the stones in their hearts. They had to focus.

    Ji Yuan suddenly felt like the ultimate winner now after he had goaled them into the position that he had wanted.

    "Haha, Xiang Li. Look! I am smart, do you agree?" Ji Yuan shamelessly asked her in secret.

    "My master is indeed smart!" Xiang Li was giggling.

    "Oh no, Xiang Li." Ji Yuan had suddenly said loudly.

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Don''t call me master. Just call me Big Brother. You are not my servant. Haha."

    Xiang Li was flushing shyly, "Big Brother¡­" We are one closer step together?

    When Ji Yuan heard Xiang Li calling him ''Big Brother'', he was delighted. It was because his ego had suddenly gone up. Xiang Li is so much ancient than him and now she is calling him ''Big Brother''. This was a lot of gold that was pasted on his face.

    But Ji Yuan had a particrly thick skin to his ego. So he did not think that it is wrong to brush up his ego all the time. The same goes for insults as well but in reverse. He was just not bothered by it.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to embrace all four maidens, Bai Qianfeng whispered. "Someone is here." As she quickly transformed into a nine-tail spirit fox.

    Ling Tianshui had suddenly appeared and she was gasping breathlessly. "An envoy of the Water Melody Pce is here and she wants to see Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes in bewilderment, "Why should an envoy of the Water Melody Pce be looking for me?"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "Shouldn''t she be looking for me instead?"

    Xue Qianxue said unhappily, "It seems that Ji Yuan is getting more and more popr."

    "Maybe it isn''t what you all think." Although Little Princess was saying otherwise but her tone was also cold.

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Surely you are not jealous of an old hag that hade to bash me up, right?"

    Bai Qianfeng looked away shyly; she did not dare to tell Ji Yuan that she had told the three maidens that the Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi was actually a young maiden in disguise.

    Ling Feiyue asked her aunt, "I hope that this envoy did not storm into here again like that old hag." That incident had caused her sect to lose some prestige.

    "Shees alone and is quite polite. In fact, this envoy has gone through all the proper procedures and has already been waiting for several hours." Ling Tianshui answered before adding again. "She seems quite friendly enough though."

    Ling Feiyue had a sign of relief before she smiled, "Alright. Let''s go and see what she wants. It will be improper for an envoy to see only the Dark Lord but not the Dark Mistress, am I right?"

    She turned to Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Xue Qianxue. "Right sisters? We shall greet this envoy together then."

    Ji Yuan suddenly felt as though his earlier triumphs were now killed off by this envoy as he cursed her silently. Why is there an envoy all of a sudden and why is she only looking for me?!

    He answered, "I am staying put here. Feiyue can handle the envoy alone¡­"

    Ling Tianshui said weakly, "The envoy says that if you don''te out then she will need to trouble her Venerable Pce Mistress toe again."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue said, "This puny envoy seems so arrogant. I''m going to teach her who is the boss around here. Ji Yuane. I am not afraid of this envoy so why are you afraid of?"

    "Alright¡­" He replied awkwardly. Then heughed. "I wonder if this envoy is pretty or not."

    Ling Tianshui shot him a fierce gaze before saying, "Come and you will know."

    -

    -

    -

    A little whileter they had entered the hall where the envoy was.

    As soon as they had entered the hall, they were all stunned by a dazzling maiden with golden hair that was standing regally in the middle of the hall as she admired the paintings that were mounted on the hall walls.

    Ling Tianshui turned to whisper to Ji Yuan with great sarcasm, "So do you think she is pretty or not?"

    The envoy was extremely beautiful with long flocks of golden hair that were neatly braided and she had three hairpins on her head. She was not only pretty but also dazzling.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue had Little Princess had to admit that she was a rare great beauty.

    When the envoy saw them, she smiled with her pearly white teeth and greeted them respectfully. "So this is Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and her Dark Lord Ji Yuan?"<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue answered coolly, "I am."

    Ji Yuan could not react in time because he was still stunned. It was not because she was extraordinary beautiful but because he had recognized her as Shui Xisi the Venerable Pce Mistress herself!

    Although he had only caught a glimpse of her but he had clearly remembered her sinful look.

    Shui Xisi actually did not know that Ji Yuan had recognized her because she had poked his eyes immediately when she felt that her facial disguise was going to give way. Moreover there was a blinding bright light back then at the same time.

    She did not know that Ji Yuan had really sharp eyes, even it was only for a split second; moreover he did not even blink his eyes when his eyes were poked.

    Ji Yuan used to be hanged by his old master on a cliff as he practiced his sword energies with the rope attaching to his legs swinging violently while his master threw an apple down for him to hit. Therefore he never got any motion sickness and his eyesight was like his etched memory, able to magnify it into his mind.

    And yes, his old master used to shoot peas into his eyes and forced him to fail the training. Therefore he was trained never to blink his eyes.

    His training was extremely brutal; each time he had missed his target, he would go hungry for three days. He had to hit one hundred targets in the same manner. If he ever missed one then he would fail the training.

    That was why even when Ji Yuan had be a golden celestial, he was always like a hungry lowly cultivator that often gorged himself on food; food was a luxury to him in the past.

    Shui Xisi smiled secretly when she saw Ji Yuan. Heehee! I don''t believe that I can''t charm you in the same way as my sister did.

    At the same time she was already flushing lightly and she was looking intently at him. She had never thought that a man without a beard would be that good looking. Now her world view hadpletely been toppled. Beardless or not, Ji Yuan was ever so beautiful in her eyes. Moreover he seemed to be more manly without a his beard¡­

    Ji Yuan was inhaling softly and even his control heartbeat skill could not stop the loud drums of his heartbeat.

    She is indeed extremely charming. Why the heck did she disguise herself as an old hag for? But why is that when I saw her, she also reminds me of Jiajia too?

    Shui Xisi had pretended to be an envoy. It was easy for her to assume any roles that she wanted because she had all the position tokens of the Water Melody Pce. The Venerable Pce Mistress is herself after all and she can always cover her own tracks.

    This time round she did not put her immortal sword around her waist as it may blow her cover.

    "I am Envoy Shui Sisi and I am here on behalf of my Venerable Pce Mistress to offer her sincere apologies to Dark Lord Ji Yuan and to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue both had a perplexed look on their countenances.

    The Venerable Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce would actually want to apologize to them?

    This was indeed very strange.

    Envoy Shui Sisi smiled gently as she took out a beautiful jade box before opening it to reveal a profound pill. "This is the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill and this can help to strengthen a cultivator''s spiritual sea. My Venerable Pce Mistress says that it is her sincere gift for Dark Lord Ji Yuan as a gesture of her sincerity to mend the rtionships between the Water Melody Pce and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    When the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill was taken out, everyone was gasping for this was a sixth rank divine pill that can really strengthen the cultivation core!

    Sixth rank divine pills are the highest tier profound pills!

    Moreover this Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill can even increase the spiritual seas of the cultivator too. In the Celestial Realm, it can even cost  a major celestial n half its fortune because it can even aid a breakthrough too!

    Jin Yilong has been trying to find one for a long time because he has been struck in his initial saint level for centuries now. Even if his celestial n is the richest in the Deste Celestial Fraternity but no one is selling an Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill for his breakthrough. It is not something that can be brought when and wherever.

    Ji Yuan and the rest could tell from their divine sense that this Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill was the real thing because it was bursting with pure profound energies.

    "This¡­this¡­" Ling Feiyue was stunned.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "It is really for me? This is really too precious. How can I ept it? I can''t take something so precious without anything in return."

    "Please ept it or else my Venerable Pce Mistress will toss me down the deste mists for failing my mission." Shui Xisi sighed pitifully.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. You are the Venerable Pce Mistress so how can you toss yourself down the deste mists?

    Ling Feiyue quickly took it for Ji Yuan, "In that case, we shall not decline it!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Erm¡­Feiyue, do you know that she is trying to n a ruse for me? We shouldn''t be epting this...

    Envoy Shui Sisi was smiling in secret. Heehee. I will pretend to show you my soft side before I beat you up. After all, this is my test for you.

    "My Venerable Pce Mistress also says that I ought to stay here for the next three months to serve Dark Lord Ji Yuan well as a gesture of her sincerity." She winked at him while charmingly moved her hips and swayed her figure. This was an outright flirt.

    No man will be able to resist my charms. Heehee.

    p She added with another beautiful wink. "With my Venerable Pce Mistress permission, I may even stay as long as possible to serve Dark Lord Ji Yuan."</anda>

    Ji Yuan was actually extremely delighted to see her again as he had been secretly thinking about her for a few days now.

    But almost immediately, he was rolling his eyes as he had suddenly remembered that she is actually the Venerable Pce Mistress.

    What trick are you ying?

    "You may go. I am actually preparing myself for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for the next three months and I will be in closed door cultivation." With that he had reluctantly turned back after taking one or two nces at her hip and butt.

    Shui Xisi was stunned. She had thought that there were no men that could resist her charms. When Ji Yuan had turned around all of a sudden, it was as though she had suddenly received a p on her face.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were stunned that Ji Yuan had such a strong willpower to say no to such an irresistible charming maiden.

    Xiang Li stammered in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "You are letting her go just like this? She is so awesome! We can add her into your harem!"

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "We have only three months left and it is time for us to make ourselves a little stronger. Between cultivation and a beautiful maiden, which one will you choose?"

    Xiang Li replied with a soft chuckle, "A beautiful maiden."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are hopeless. Where are your aspirations?" He began to rebuke her gently.

    "And which one will you choose?" Xiang Li giggled.

    "A beautiful maiden too. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Luckily, no one had heard their conversations. Ji Yuan and Xiang Li are like the same birds in the flock.

    Although Ji Yuan actually wanted Shui Xisi to stay by his side for three months so that he could see what tricks she was ying but as he was about to enter closed door cultivation soon, he was forced to turn her away. Moreover Shui Xisi was really too dangerous to be kept around while he was cultivating the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    He could already imagine that she would be interrupting his cultivation and causing him to be afflicted by a phenomenon deviation.

    He was not particrly worried about himself but for the safety of his beloved consorts.

    Ling Feiyue was now saying to Shui Xisi with a wry smile, "Since your mission is done, please leave now."

    All the maidens had a grin on their faces as they could see the disappointed look that was in Envoy Shui Sisi''s face.

    Shui Xisi was stunned that Ji Yuan had turned her offer away without any hesitation and had even left without taking a look back at her. All of a sudden she was trembling lightly and her confidence was shattered all of a sudden¡­

 Chapter 171 The Metamorph Monsters (1)

    A fleet of thirty profound ships had surrounded a lone mountain peak. This was a hidden citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce that belonged to First Citadel Lord Yin Wei.

    Thousands of cultivators were storming the mountain citadel from all sides while Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin and Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi watched from the profound ship above.

    The eyes of Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin was mncholy as she watched the battle from above; she had finally learnt that Han Yuchi is her mother consort and that she had transferred the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to her to save her life.

    After she was revived, she felt a great sense of shame and guilt toward Han Yuchi. Therefore she had dered to Jin Yilong of the Mystic Profound Pavilion, Second Young Master Zhan Zhong of the Great Inevitable Divine n and the young masters of the other major orthodox ns that whoever can get her the head of Yin Wei for her then she will be their consort.

    She wanted to take her vendetta on Yin Wei!

    Unless he is dead and ripped apart, her anger will not abate!

    Below, Jin Yilong was leading his n prot¨¦g¨¦s as they stormed the citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce. He was in a foul moodtely. It was because he felt that he had suddenly lost Zhao Songjin from his grip.

    Although he was a yboy but he truly loved Zhao Songjin with all his heart and he was really sincere in taking her as his consort. But all of a sudden Zhan Zhong of the Great Inevitable Divine n had also taken an interest in Zhao Songjin.

    These two men were now bitterly fighting over Zhao Songjin as they led the fiercest attack upon the Evil Cultivation Pce; they wanted to prove that they were the most worthy man for Zhao Songjin.

    Behind them were the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Iron Righteous n.

    Many of the leadership of the six major orthodox ns were actually viewing the battle that was taking ce below on their profound ships above. In their eyes, this citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce had already fallen and they were just letting their younger generation to gain some valuable experience in the battle.

    The six major orthodox ns had never thought that they would one day thrash the Evil Cultivation Pce into such a pathetic state. They were actually quite nervous about attacking the mysterious Evil Cultivation Pce as none of them know how strong the Evil Cultivation Pce was.

    So far they had already brought down three of Little Princess'' citadels and now they were attacking First Citadel Lord Yin Wei''s citadel. This Yin Wei had been rumored to be the next Evil Cultivation Master for a long time.

    And suddenly Zhao Songjin had told everyone that she had a lead on the whereabouts of Yin Wei.

    This was too good of an opportunity for the six major orthodox ns to get rid of a powerful cultivator from the Evil Cultivation Pce once and for all.

    Right now numerous golden celestials were on standby on their flying mounts, ready to descend on the mountains below as they waited on the profound ships above.

    Most of the cultivators that were on standby on their flying mounts were golden celestials mainly because flying mounts are unaffordable for most of the cultivators that are below the fifth realm level. Those cultivators that were not golden celestials but were seen mounting one were the princes, princess or core prot¨¦g¨¦s with considerable influential background.

    Great Saint Jian Kang the sect master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and Great Saint Jin Tianzong the sect master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion were also watching the battle keenly with their elders.

    They had sent numerous saints to support the attack and these two sects had a most cordial rtionship.

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong actually did not want his only son Jin Yilong to lead the attack but he was insistent. Therefore he had sent two great saints as well as quite a few saints to act as his protectors.

    Lately Great Saint Jin Tianzong was in an unhappy mood because he had recently lost his one and only granddaughter Jin Yuyun. He had actually entertained the thought of grooming Jin Yuyun as his sessor instead because somehow Jin Yilong had made no progression for many years. It was with much difficulty and mostly due to the cultivation treasures of the Mystic Profound Pavilion that Jin Yilong was able to be a saint.

    He actually did not have any hope for Jin Yilong to progress any further now and he was hoping that he could just sire him a son. But even that seem a little hopeless. It had been 200 years since Jin Yuyun had been born and yet there were no other children from Jin Yilong even though he had arge harem.

    Therefore he could only ce his hope on Jin Yuyun. After all, she is still quite young and she has way better cultivation talent than her father Jin Yilong. But now, he had lost her too¡­

    Great Saint Jian Kang was also lost in his thoughts as he viewed the battle below. Originally he had nned to betroth his daughter Jian Yuluo to Jin Yilong but Jian Yuluo refused to be in consort with anyone except for Ji Yuan.

    He was a little sad when Jian Yuluo and Jian Menghao had gone missing after the brutal deste beasts attacks. During that incident, he had lost quite a few capable cultivators too.

    Although he was not on the best of terms with his daughter Jian Yuluo but he was saddened by her demise. It was because Jian Yuluo had the potential to be a great saintess one day and moreover she was also a Sword Saintess with a high repute in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    In secret, he was actually quite proud of her.

    But he was still upset over her bastard son Jian Menghao and he was quite d that he was finally dead now.

    He had forced his daughter Jian Yuluo never to acknowledge Jian Menghao as her son or else he would personally cripple his cultivation core.

    He sighed sadly to himself, "Yuluo¡­why can''t you understand your father? That Ji Yuan is poor and good-for-nothing but Jin Yilong is rich and he will be a perfect match for you. You don''t choose a handsome face and a pure sword cultivator for your future. Remember you only got one chance to live. Only with an alliance with the Mystic Profound Pavilion can we strengthen our sect''s position among the seven major orthodox ns. "

    All of a sudden the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce were suddenly seen making a strong stand and a beautiful peaked great saintess had also appeared from the ranks of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    This startled many of the attacking cultivators as a peaked great saintess is a formidable existence.

    However they were not particrly too worried because there were more than ten great saints and forty saints that were attacking below. Moreover there were even more powerful saints that were on standby above the profound ships above.

    All of a sudden a beautiful maiden with silver hair had appeared over the side of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Her appearance stopped the general retreat of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    When she had raised her heaven-step divine sword, the attackers were startled that she was a peaked great saintess.

    "Other than Yin Wei, there is another peaked great saint on the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    "We have ten great saints on our side as well as numerous saints. What can a mere great saintess do?"

    "There are another three saint cultivators that areing from behind her¡­"

    The attacking cultivators began to hesitate because they could suddenly sense killing intentions from three lone figures that were limping behind the beautiful maiden with silver hair.<sub> </sub>

    These three lone figures were all unarmed and were standing far apart from one another. Their profound animus was raised and they were saint cultivators. Although their profound animus was not more formidable than the beautiful maiden with silver hair but they had a terrifying killing malevolent aura that were suddenly halting all the attacking cultivators.

    Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong were shouting to the cultivators that were on their side. "What are you all waiting for? Attack! They are only making theirst stand!"

    With thunderous roars, the thousands of cultivators were all charging toward the ranks of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce again. Everyone could see that the Evil Cultivation Pce had only less than ten saints and only one great saintess that remained on the battle field now.

    Therefore when their leaders had given them the order to attack again, they were charging madly again. As a matter of fact, they were charging so madly that there were no battle formations to speak of.

    All of a sudden two of the lone figures had a look of great agony on their faces as they transformed into tworge deste beasts right in front of the attacking cultivators, shocking many.

    "What the heck? They can transform into deste beasts?!"

    "What is going on?"

    "Are they humans?!!"

    These two deste beasts all had elongated necks and their bodies had long spikes as they suddenly charged into the ranks of the attacking cultivators.

    When these two deste beasts had fully metamorphed in front of them, the attacking cultivators had a look of horror in their faces as divine senses were now warning them that these two deste beasts were actually two epic seventh rank deste monsters that were stronger than any great saints!

    Almost immediately, the two deste beasts had spread its long spikes all around them creating a killing zone as dozens of the weaker cultivators were instantly killed on the same spot.

    Tens of golden celestials from the six major orthodox ns were now rushing forward as they shouted panicky to the weaker cultivators. "Everyone back! All cultivators that are below the fifth realm cultivation level go to the back immediately!"

    Against an epic seventh rank deste monster, anyone that is below the fifth realm cultivation level will only get themselves ripped apart.

    A courageous great saint from the Iron Righteous n was immediately leading the attack as he raised his divine sword to sh against the armor tes of the deste monster. Using a powerful unique sword artbined with his internal profound art, he had shed furiously against the body of the epic seventh rank deste monster.

    To his horror, the damage that he had afflicted on the monster was quickly regenerated and he had barely escaped being incapacitated as dozens of projectiles flew from the body of the monster!

    He barely escaped as he limped away quickly as several golden celestials had immediately blocked the attacks for him. But several lower ranking golden celestials were killed on the spot as they covered him.

    Dozens of golden celestials were now surrounding these two gigantic deste beasts but most of the damages that they were inflicting were quickly regenerated.

    The other epic seventh rank deste beast had suddenly roared thunderously as the dozens of spikes on its back were suddenly extended like stic spears all around it, shing, wounding and killing dozens of golden celestials at the same time!

    Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong had suddenly turned ashen. They were even trembling and did not even dare to approach the two epic deste beasts.

    Above the mountain, the leaders of the six major orthodox ns were horrified to see the presence of the two epic seventh rank deste beasts.

    Zhao Songjin raised her profound voice to shout across to everyone, her beautiful voice echoing. "What are you all waiting for? Go down and help our side immediately!"

    When she had said that, hundreds of flying mounts had immediately taken off to descend onto the mountains below.

    All of a sudden the third limping skeleton thin cultivator was suddenly howling fiercely as he metamorphed into a winged gigantic deste beast with four arms and two legs. It even had a three horn head and its jaws were like swords.

    It was now spreading its wings and the monster had its target on the profound ships above!

    Zhao Songjin, Han Yuchi and all the leaders of the six major orthodox ns had all turned ashen!

    This was another an epic seventh rank deste beast and a flying one!

    Two epic seventh rank deste beast were already more than what they could handle and now there were three epic seventh rank deste beasts¡­

    Great Saint Jian Kang was trembling as his deep voice echoed, "Defend the ships¡­"

    "What is going on?"

    "These cultivators can transform into epic deste beasts?"

    "Are they illusions?"

    The beautiful maiden in silver hair was nowughing. "You may address me as the Sagess Mei. Do you really think that you can attack the Evil Cultivation Pce when and whenever you please? Today you shall pay a heavy price for your offense against the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    Jin Yilong mustered the courage to shout bravely, "We only want Yin Wei dead. Surrender him to us or else¡­"

    Sagess Mei interrupted him coldly from across the battlefield. "Yin Wei is not here. Therefore I shall take his stead to punish all of you instead."

    Although she was saying so, she had discreetly walked away; it was because she only had limited control over the three metamorph monsters once they had fully metamorphed.

    There was an unhappy look in her eyes because the Evil Cultivation Master had ordered her to sacrifice three saint cultivators and to use them as incubators for the metamorph monsters. She did not care for the lives of the three saint cultivators but the metamorph cores to create a metamorph monster are extremely limited and she hates to waste it.

    Right now, she has only one sample left and it is a metamorph core that she was using as an experiment to create an epic eighth rank deste beast.

 Chapter 172 The Metamorph Monsters (2)

    When the battle with the three epic deste beasts had ended, the result of the battle was dismay; close to one thousand lowly cultivators were lying on the ground. Without the regeneration abilities of the golden celestials, many of the lowly cultivators if they were not dead, would not be able to recover from their severe injuries.

    The golden celestials at least can re-attach their limbs and even grow one over time, including their eyes and other vital organs if they are not killed outright.

    But even then, there were dozens of dead golden celestials scattered all across the mountain peak.

    There were even five profound ships that had crashed into the mountains and one profound ship had even dropped into the deste mists below.

    The six major orthodox ns had managed to kill the three epic seventh rank deste beasts but at a heavy price.

    Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin, Jin Yilong, Zhan Zhong, Great Saint Jian Kang, Great Saint Jin Tianzong and many other leaders of the six major orthodox ns were all shocked at the number of cultivators that had perished in the intense fight.

    Although some of them had some experiences in dealing with an epic deste monster before but these three epic metamorph monsters were really unlike any epic deste monsters that they had fought before; it was because these three epic metamorph monsters did not seem to feel any pain whatever so and were extremely brutal in their attacks.

    Han Yuchi was badly shaken, "What are these monsters? Their regeneration abilities seem to be way faster than anything I have ever seen before. One of them even regenerated its limb in a few blinks of an eye¡­"

    Great Saint Jian Kang was inhaling deeply, "So it is the trump card of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong smiled weakly, "Although we still have the bulk of our forces intact but the morale is low at the moment. So do we continue our attacks on the second citadel that belongs to Yin Wei?"

    This question had suddenly struck a deep cord in the hearts of the leaders of the six major orthodox ns.

    With so many injured golden celestials and with several saint cultivators that had perished in this battle, none of the leaders of the six major orthodox ns really know if they can handle more of these epic metamorph monsters.

    "That Sagess Mei and many of the golden celestials of the Evil Cultivation Pce had slipped away during the intense battle. Therefore the main forces of the Evil Cultivation Pce are probably still intact and the assault will not be without any peril." Young Master Bo Anwan from the Burning Heavens Pavilion suggested.

    Young Master Bo Anwan is a middle-tier saint as well as the future sessor to the sect master position of the Burning Heavens Pavilion. He is also the representative of the Burning Heavens Pavilion for the expedition against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Zhao Songjin replied nonchntly, "This may only be a ruse of the Evil Cultivation Pce and theirst trump card in a bid to defer us. Did you not notice that their golden celestials have slipped away from the battle? Therefore we should continue our next assault on their citadels."

    "Sacred Maiden Zhao¡­" Grand Elder Kai Renjie and also great saint from the Iron Righteous n said quietly. "I beg to differ. We have not encounter First Citadel Yin Wei and Second Citadel Yin Xiong yet but look at our forces now. What if you''re wrong and more of these monsters turn up? Also, we still don''t know how strong the Evil Pce Master is."

    Great Saint Jian Kang nodded, "I agree with Grand Elder Kai here. Why don''t we turn our forces on the Spirit Blue Moon Sect instead?"

    Young Master Bo Anwan began to frown immediately. "I don''t agree. We have a three months truce with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect for now. How can we go back on our promise? Aren''t we the righteous sects?"

    Great Saint Jian Kang hummed coldly, "We don''t need to keep our promises to the unrighteous sects."

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi said, "I know that you just want to take your vendetta on Ji Yuan for killing your daughter Yuluo. We can perfectly understand your stand but Yin Wei must be taken down no matter the cost!"

    Zhao Songjin turned to look at Zhan Zhong and Jin Yilong, "What do you say?"

    The two men muttered, "Naturally we are supportive of the Celestial Orthodox n¡­"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong interrupted, "This decision is not made by Jin Yilong. Don''t forget that I am the sect master of the Mystic Profound Pavilion and I am not dead yet."

    He turned toward Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin to say, "Although the Evil Cultivation Pce is the number one public enemy in the Deste Celestial Fraternity but they have always kept a low profile. While I understand that they have been infiltrating the seven major orthodox ns but we did get rid of most of their moles. Therefore I think that they will keep an even lower profile in the future."

    Zhao Songjin hummed coldly, "So you are supportive of Great Saint Jian Kang''s decision to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    Second Young Master Zhan Zhong could not resist a sarcasm remark. "I have long heard that the Mystic Profound Pavilion and the Profound Heaven Sword Manor are close allies. So it is true after all."

    Great Saint Jian Kang was now smiling as he raised his hand to thank Great Saint Jin Tianzong, "Brother Tianzong, thank you¡­"

    "Hold!" Great Saint Jin Tianzong had suddenly interrupted him. "I didn''t say I am agreeable to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect as well."

    "You!" Great Saint Jian Kang was speechless.

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong calmly said. "I have received a darning report earlier and I have thought of sharing with all the leaders of our coalition after our victory. So I ought to share with everyone now."

    "What is it?"

    "What darning report?"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong inhaled deeply, "The other four major unorthodox ns have now formed an alliance with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Therefore if we dere war on the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, it is as good as dering war on all five of the major unorthodox ns and possibly the entire unorthodox fraternity."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Great Saint Jian Kang was startled, "How is it possible?! The major unorthodox ns all have their rivalries and are not as united as us. How is it possible for all five of the major unorthodox ns to form an alliance with one another?"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong hummed coldly, "You have better believed it. In a few more days, you will all receive the official updates. They have not only formed an alliance together but they seemed to be preparing for something else."

    "Preparing for something else?"

    "What are the unorthodox cultivators up to?"

    Great Saint Jian Kang raised his fists to say, "Their alliances must be a fragile alliance. Once we move our profound ships to attack and demand that they surrender Ji Yuan to us, these unorthodox cultivators will surely be only too d to bind a lowly saint like Ji Yuan to us than to battle with us."

    "A lowly cultivator?" Great Saint Jin Tianzong was now smiling bitterly. "Did you not know that Sword Saint Ji Yuan is an upper heaven-step seventh realm great saint now and he even has a celestial sword to back him up?"

    Great Saint Jian Kang and many of the listeners were startled. "What?! Ji Yuan is now a great saint?! Isn''t he just an initial saint not long ago? Is this news reliable?!"

    "I have heard that he has a celestial sword but unless he is a great saint, he is not going to disy the full strength of a celestial sword but now¡­"

    Disbelief greeted everyone!

    Young Master Bo Anwan was the first to react, "As all of you know, the Burning Heavens Pavilion has a feud with both Ji Yuan and Little Princess. But we are probably the fairest in our views here. I really think that enough is enough. We have taught both the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect a lesson that the righteous orthodox ns are not to be bullied by anyone. And I think we have already got the message through to them by now. Naturally Ji Yuan and Little Princess are still not weed in the orthodox fraternity¡­"

    Great Saint Jian Kang interrupted coldly, "Cowards! Then the Profound Heaven Sword Manor will attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect alone!"<sub> </sub>

    Young Master Bo Anwan chuckled sarcastically, "Just don''t get your sect position degraded to a lesser celestial n position."

    Great Saint Jian Kang replied coldly, "Just you watch."

    Young Master Bo Anwan was not exactly in a friendly rtionship with the Profound Heaven Sword Manor because he had been rejected several times by Saintess Yuluo in the past. Therefore he harbored a grudge toward the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    He was actually in the expedition for his own personal glory and was not because he was concerned about the deceased Saint Wu Heng who was killed by Ji Yuan and Little Princess. As a matter of fact, he was actually d that Saint Wu Heng was killed because he belonged to his younger brother''s faction.

    As the future sessor to the Burning Heavens Pavilion, he was actually extremely cautious about losing his life to unpredictable events.

    Suddenly the fragile alliance was now showing cracks as everyone was now trying to force their views on the others.

    But a bright light had suddenly appeared in the heaven above and the image of a colossal mountain was seen descending slowly. At the top of the base of this colossal mountain was the gigantic status of an ancient tortoise and on top of the ancient tortoise was the colossal status of the Great God Pangu in a meditating position.

    Everyone was stunned.

    "This is the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is actually descending upon the Celestial Realm soon¡­"

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is the greatest trial as well as the most dangerous trial in the entire Celestial Realm. It will descend upon the Celestial Realm every few hundred years in all the fraternities of the Celestial Realm. This is the only trial that the cultivators from all over the Celestial Realm will get to chance topete against one another.

    For the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to fully descend onto the Celestial Realm, it will take three to four months, giving plenty of warnings to all the cultivators to prepare themselves.

    However, there is a trial condition and that is that no cultivators below the fifth realm cultivation level will be permitted to enter inside. They will not be able to survive the trials inside and hence there is such a restriction in the first ce for their own good.

    It is said that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was created by the Great God Pangu for the cultivators for them to obtain lucky urrences inside.

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong turned to the rest of the leaders of the coalition to say, "I think the decision is clear now, am I right?"

    Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin, Great Saint Jian Kang and all the others were quiet immediately.

    It was because ording to the sacredws of the Celestial Realm, all battles and rivalries must cease immediately with the appearance of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Anyone that broke this sacredw will be punished by the immortals and all the celestials in the Celestial Realm.

    Matriarch Han Yuchi could only say weakly, "Alright. Let''s go back to our own sects first to make our preparations for the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    No matter how important their current rivalries are, it is never more important than the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth''s profound treasures that can aid breakthrough and ascensions.

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong turned to Jin Yilong to say, "Son, it is your only chance for a breakthrough. I want you to fully prepare yourself to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Jin Yilong smiled weakly, "Surely we can send the others¡­"

    "The others need their cultivation resources too. If you are not around, do you think that they will surrender their hard earn cultivation resources to you just because you are the future sect master? Don''t be na?ve." Great Saint Jin Tianzong rebuked him harshly.

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Zhao Songjin hummed coldly, "I don''t believe that Yin Wei will not enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. We shall ughter him inside then!"

    Zhan Zhong was smiling weakly. This Yin Wei is a peaked great saint. Once they are inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, all their numerical advantages will be lost and the hunted may be the hunter.

    -

    -

    -

    In the secret base of the Evil Cultivation Pce;

    Sagess Mei had just returned to the side of the Evil Cultivation Master to make her report. But as she approached the throne of the Evil Cultivation Master, she was quite startled to see that the Sagess Alyssa was injured.

    "Sister, what happens to you? Aren''t you on a mission to kill Ji Yuan and to retrieve your daughter? You have seeded?"

    The Sagess Alyssa had a woeful look, "I have failed."

    Sagess Mei was startled. "You are a peaked great saintess. With your immortal profound arts, how is it possible for you to be injured? They must have setup an ambush for you¡­"

    "No." Sagess Alyssa replied softly. "I''ve lost to Ji Yuan in a fair fight. He is stronger than I''ve thought. Also I had met the Goddess Abyssal Null and she seems to be protecting him as well."

    Sagess Mei gasped, "The Goddess Abyssal Null! Did you tell her that we are on the same side?"

    Sagess Alyssa sighed softly. "I did but she said that Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue are all her properties and she had warned me off."

    The Evil Cultivation Master hummed coldly, "A mere goddess had dared to oppose me. If I am not struck in this pathetic body then I will surely teach her a lesson."

    Sagess Mei quickly greeted her master, "I have released the three metamorph monsters against the six major orthodox ns. Although the three metamorph monsters were all killed eventually but the orthodox cultivators have also suffered a great loss."

    "And also, the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "I know about it. The timing is good." The Evil Cultivation Master replied. "I have a good news for you."

    The Sagess Mei: ???

    "I have found you the barely alive body of an epic eighth rank deste beast and this one is also heavily pregnant. I have remembered that you have always wanted to create an epic eighth rank deste beast. You don''t have to create anymore. You can merge the metamorph core into her."

    The Sagess Mei was gasping with surprise, "This is indeed a good news."

 Chapter 173 Shui Xisis New Rule

    For the very first time, Shui Xisi appeared to be lost as she stared at the mirror. She had always thought that she was one of the most peerless maidens in the Celestial Realm as she had inherited the great peerless beauty of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice.

    But when she saw that Ji Yuan had turned his back on her, her confidence in herself hadpletely shattered. She just did not understand why he would give her the cold shoulders.

    Aren''t all men lecherous?

    Or is it because she is really unworthy of his attention?

    p Is her Sister Feifei really way better than her?</anda>

    Her eyes were bleary and she had not cried for centuries. Even when her Sister Feifei had beaten her up, she had not cried.

    She had always thought that she was beyond any emotional distress.

    Her fingers were trembling as she touched her face, "I am not beautiful enough? He is definitely not a monk or a priest. Why didn''t he want me to serve him? Is it because I didn''t have any make-up on?"

    Her original n was simple enough; she would find Ji Yuan and try to seduce him with her feminine charms. Then once she had conquered his heart, she would start to take possession of him and she would start to beat him up in her whims.

    But before she could even execute her n, Ji Yuan had walked away from her.

    When she had thought that she could no longer scratch his face and kicked him to observe his funny reactions, there was a heartbreaking reaction in her inner soul.

    She was now muttering with a lost look, "Why did he not hesitate at all when he turned away¡­"

    "Maybe he is too shy?..."

    All of a sudden there was a call from beyond the closed doors of her inner sanctuary, "Venerable Pce Mistress, there is something important to report to you by Pce Mistress Qingqing. The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is now descending and she wants to discuss this with you."

    There was a sh of light in Shui Xisi''s eyes and she was suddenly smiling. "Good! I have something important to discuss with everyone as well. Assemble all the elders to the waiting hall first."

    "All the elders?" the female messenger behind the closed door asked curiously. The reason why she had asked again was because there were several groups of elders. The elders that usually needed to be presented were the elders that were serving Pce Mistress Qingqing now. They were the newly appointed elders and the younger generation.

    "Yes, all. Go!" Shui Xisimanded her.

    -

    -

    -

    Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing and dozens of elders had now arrived at the waiting hall. Because their Venerable Pce Mistress had called for all the elders, it took them some time to gather and everyone was now busy greeting one another.

    "I understand that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is now descending but it will be months before it will fully descend¡­"

    "Did Venerable Pce Mistress states the reasons why she has called for us all to gather?"

    "Pce Mistress Qingqing, do you know?"

    Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing shook her head, "I don''t know." Then with a soft giggle. "Maybe Venerable Pce Mistress wants to remove me from the leadership position."

    "Don''t say something like this¡­"

    "Surely not! Venerable Pce Mistress dotes on you¡­"

    "She didn''t even punish you when you sneak out¡­"

    Shui Qingqing was actually too d to be removed from the leadership position so that she could sneak away to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to correct Ji Yuan and to set him upon the righteous path. If she could do that then this would be better than any power and position.

    Naturally, it was also because Ji Yuan was the hero of her heart and that was why. Or else she would not have bothered with him.

    She was already thinking of looking of Ji Yuan once more. But somehow she had found herself thinking of Li Yuan more. As a matter of fact, she could not resist praising Li Yuan in front of her Venerable Pce Mistress.

    "But Li Yuan is only a beardless cultivator while Ji Yuan is a beautiful beard cultivator¡­"

    Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the announcement of the arrival of the Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi.

    Shui Xisi was apanied by her four protectors as she assumed the throne seat of the waiting hall with Shui Qingqing upying a lower throne seat next to her.

    "Venerable Pce Mistress." Shui Qingqing smiled as she greeted her.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "My good Qingqing. You must be curious why I have summoned all the elders?"

    Shui Qingqing nodded with a smile, "I am not the only ones. The elders are too."

    Shui Xisi has always like Shui Qingqing because she has never hidden any of her thoughts from her.

    Sheughed softly as she looked at the dozens of elders that were presented. There were many elders that she had not seen for years and these elders were with her since the founding days of the Water Melody Pce.

    Shui Xisi was actually the first founder of the Water Melody Pce and she was their living founding matriarch.

    Some of the older elders were even chuckling, "Does Venerable Mistress Pce wishes to lead the Water Melody Pce again?"

    "If Venerable Pce Mistress wishes to return from her seclusion, I guess that we have to return from seclusion too."

    Usually when an older elder said something like this, the current leadership would not be pleased. But in the Water Melody Pce, the new and old elders were allughing together because many of the current elders were the core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the senior elders.<sub> </sub>

    Even Shui Qingqing was joking. "If Venerable Pce Mistress is thinking of leading us into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, Qingqing is only too d to delegate my position."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "Are you thinking of going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to y? Unfortunately for you, it is still too early for you."

    Shui Qingqing protested immediately, "I''m already a saint cultivator¡­"

    "Your responsibilities lie in the sect." Shui Xisi interrupted her casually.

    Shui Qingqing quickly made a face that caused all the elders to chuckle jovially. It was because they all know that Shui Qingqing was permanently confined in the Water Melody Pce.

    But this was actually for her own good as she was too trusting andcked worldly experiences. Her earlier encounter with a certain ''Li Yuan'' had caused her protectors plenty of distress as they had thought that an incident had happened to her.

    Shui Xisi coughed weakly to get everyone attention back to herself. "Ahem! I''ve got something important to announce. I know that many of you have been with me for a long time but none of you truly know who I am."

    There were bewildered looks from everyone. Of course they know who their Venerable Pce Mistress was.

    Shui Qingqing asked curiously, "You mean you have another name before your current one?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly before she peeled off her wrinkled old skin and fake wig. Immediately a most peerless maiden with long golden hair began to appear in the eyes of everyone.

    Even her four protectors were all stunned and staggered weakly. "This is¡­"

    Shui Qingqing was gasping too as she stood up in shock, unsure how to react to this. "Venerable Pce Mistress¡­are you real or fake?"

    All the other elders were shocked beyond words. They had always thought that their Venerable Pce Mistress was an old woman who had a high celestial attainment. But they had never dreamt that their Venerable Pce Mistress was actually so young looking.

    Although cultivators ceased to age after reaching the fourth realm immortal celestial level but if they lived long enough, exceeding the life span that is brought by their lightning tribtion, they will begin to age once more as this is a sign that they must quickly advance for their ascension.

    Since their Venerable Pce Mistress is a peaked great saintess, they had all thought that she must be an old woman that is almost ready for her ascension soon.

    She was not an old woman but a most beautiful maiden¡­

    This caused everyone to be stunned, not knowing how to react, including her four protectors...

    As a matter of fact, many of the elders were even questioning if the Venerable Pce Mistress that was in front of them was really the real Venerable Pce Mistress.

    "Of course I am the real one." Shui Xisi chuckled. "From today onward, I will be assuming back my original appearance. I have gathered all of you here to show you my real appearance. After all, many of you have been with me for many years and you have the right to know who I really am."

    Shui Qingqing stammered, "Venerable Pce Mistress, how old are you really?"

    Shui Xisiughed. She was actually quite young but she did not want to answer it. After all, she had an abnormal rate of cultivation and was already a saintess by the time she was twenty-five. At the same time she was also a born Xiantian and since birth, she was already a third realm enlighten celestial level. By the time she was thirteen, she was already a fifth realm golden celestial.

    Her Sister Saintess Feifei (Fang Zhenfei) also had a simr rate of cultivation. Also she too, had ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion.

    Those that can ovee the Purple Lightning Tribtion can be youthful for as long as ten thousand years and will slowly age after that.

    Except that this rule does not apply to her because she is a half-immortal. Moreover she is only a few centuries old.

    "You must all be wondering why I am revealing my appearance to all of you today?" Shui Xisi was suddenly sighing. "It is because I have enough of the celestial fraternity looking down on our Water Melody Pce."

    Everyone: ???

    "The celestials have only known of the two Goddess Maidens and the Four Celestial Beauties but do they know that we have plenty of beauties from the Water Melody Pce too?" Shui Xisi raised her fist angrily.

    All the elders were startled by this reasoning. It was because they did not know that their Venerable Pce Mistress would be bothered by thisme reason since she had always been an old woman in front of them for thest couple of centuries.

    They were all thinking with almost the same thing; did someone hurt the feelings of their Venerable Pce Mistress?

    "Therefore it is now time for the great beauties of the Water Melody Pce to rise from the ashes!" Shui Xisi shook her fists in the air. She was actually referring to herself of course.

    Shui Qingqing and all the elders were speechless and they did not know how to react.

    "Therefore from this day onward, everyone must know the art of charms and learn how to apply cosmetics." Shui Xisi proimed firmly.

    This time everyone was gasping and there were smiles on their faces; it was because the Water Melody Pce had forbidden its prot¨¦g¨¦s from using any form of cosmetics. Many of the elders, including Shui Qingqing had some cosmetics which they had stashed in secret.

    When Shui Qingqing had slipped away from the Water Melody Pce, she had applied a light makeup and had even applied a rosy lip stick.

    Without waiting for Shui Xisi to change her mind, Shui Qingqing and many of the elders were happily answering. "We shall abide by Venerable Pce Mistress'' decree!"

    Shui Xisi was a little startled at their delightful expressions. She hadid down a golden rule that no one should use cosmetic in the sect. Therefore she had expected that the elders were be urguing against a sudden change. But to her surprise, they were all too ready to ept her sudden decision.

    This is a little too unexpected? Or are they faking? Because they are shocked to see my sudden appearance?

    But she had quickly cast her thoughts away. For the next three months, she was going to practice the wiles of a charming maiden and the arts of cosmetics to seduce Ji Yuan!

    "Ji Yuan, so you like famous maidens, am I right? In three months'' time, I will be shocking the entire fraternity with my peerless allure. Then you shall be down at my feet, begging me to be your consort!"

    Elsewhere, Ji Yuan was suddenly sneezing as he rubbed his nose. He was cultivating to form the Soul Core now when he had suddenly sneezed.

    "Dang! Who is silently plotting against me?"

 Chapter 174 Forming The Soul Core

    Ji Yuan had just already formed the basic Soul Core and he was now moving toward the next level of the Soul Core formation.

    He was actually startled that it had been a smooth experience for him because he knew that it was difficult for him to pick up any internal profound art.

    Bai Qianfeng was really a good instructor and she had patiently exined to him on the various internal profound intricate techniques whenever he had encountered any difficulties. This really made things alot easier for Ji Yuan.

    "Why is it that I have little problem forming the Soul Core? This doesn''t seem too right?" Ji Yuan was muttering to Bai Qianfeng and Xiang Li. "Two months is an amazing speed, am I right?"

    "It is all thanks to me!" Xiang Li proimed proudly. "As your trial reward, I have purified your spiritual seas so that you can cultivate your profound energies easily."

    "Stop pasting gold on your face, Xiang Li. This is because I''m a genius. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "And also because Qianfeng is a good Celestial Teacher." Ji Yuan turned to look at Bai Qianfeng who quickly averted her eyes shyly.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she turned to look at Xiang Li, "Your profound energies is unusually pure. It is as though someone had already purified for you. So it is actually Xiang Li. Interesting¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "It can''t be Xiang Li. She is useless¡­"

    Xiang Li winked at him, "Spirit entities can''t tell a lie!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. "Right, spirit entities can''t tell a lie. Xiang Li, I am so grateful to you!"

    He was being sarcastic naturally. It was because when Xiang Li had said to him that spirit entities were not unable to lie, it was a big hint to him that she will expose his lies in front of the maidens if he continued his disbelief.

    And Ji Yuan and Xiang Li were bothughing jovially all of a sudden.

    "Xiang Li, you are the best¡­"

    "Of course I am!..."

    "But it is also because I''m a genius¡­"

    "Genius because of me." Insisted Xiang Li.

    "Maybe¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng had a perplexed look as she looked at the two of them; it was because sometimes Ji Yuan and Xiang Li both had puzzling behaviors that could not be easily read.

    But she knows that Xiang Li was telling the truth. It was because she had also found out that Ling Feiyue''s profound energies were unusually pure. She had thought that it would a lot of hard work trying to correct the mistakes that were made by Ling Feiyue during her practice of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art as merging several profound energies together would be difficult to rectify.

    But to her surprise, Ling Feiyue''s mistakes were easy to rectify due to the pureness of her profound energies.

    When she had asked Ling Feiyue about it, she replied that she had a sudden increase in her cultivation speed and her profound energies were easier to muster after she had visited the Lotus Sword Mansion. Hence she had several breakthroughs in her profound arts thereafter.

    So she had discreetly asked Xiang Li about it and she had admitted that this was the secret trial rewards that she had given to Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan.

    Profound Energies have tens of attributes due to the different profound arts that were practiced. It is mainly divided into three main groups, negative, positive and neutral.

    In the negative profound energies group, there are negative, pure negative, extreme negative and pure extreme negative.

    In the positive profound energies group, there are positive, pure positive, extreme positive and pure extreme positive.

    In the neutral energies group, there are bnce, equilibrium and true equilibrium.

    Ji Yuan''s profound energies is actually the bnce type because he has not practiced any profound arts that affected the attributes of his profound energies plus he is also a born bnce type.

    Compared to Little Princess who is a born pure extreme negative type and she cannot practice profound arts that are of the positive types, Ji Yuan actually can practice any profound art types since he is a born bnce type.

    But of course, he will not be as strong as the born negative or positive types in his profound energies since he is a born bnce type.

    But now due to Xiang Li''s influence, his profound energies are at the true equilibrium now. True equilibrium profound energies is stronger than equilibrium and bnce.

    But of course Ji Yuan did not know about this since he actually had no interest in the studies of profound energies.

    He only knows that his profound energies are now purer and smoother to muster than ever.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "The hard works of the past two months have finally been paid off. You have finally formed the Soul Core. Let me go and check on the others sisters and see if they need help. Take a rest first and wait for me here."

    Ji Yuan had a look of appreciation as he watched Bai Qianfeng departed from his cultivating chamber. "Qianfeng, thank you¡­"

    "It is my pleasure to help my lord." Qianfeng smiled as she reluctantly walked away.

    When Bai Qianfeng was gone, Ji Yuan turned to smile at Xiang Li. "Haha. My internal profound strength looks pretty good now after I have formed the Soul Core."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "It is all thanks to me!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "It is due to my Natural Instinct, not yours."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "You are only at the basic soul core level and you are already so haughty."

    "Haha. Of course. I have never thought that I can master any internal profound art in as little as two months¡­"

    "Basic!" Xiang Li reminded him with a chuckle.

    "Mind you, this is a supreme profound art!" Ji Yuan emphasized.

    "But it is still basic." Xiang Liughed jovially. "And it is a soul core without any gold core to protect it. Super fragile!"

    Ji Yuan was taken down from the heavens to the earth as he rubbed his chin, "Right¡­"

    He has almost forgotten about this¡­

    Xiang Li reminded him out of concern, "Big brother, although we have plenty of fun together but I should remind you that we ought to be careful about lying in the future, even though it may be of good intentions. You are fortunately enough to form a soul core and this is not easy at all. Alright?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he looked at Xiang Li quietly. He really appreciated her advice. Like Bai Qianfeng, he had been with Xiang Li in the Dream Trial for several hundreds of moons. He had considered Xiang Li to be his best friend or rather his partner in crime because she knows plenty of his secrets.

    Most of the time Ji Yuan was quite mean toward her but he was only teasing her and Xiang Li knew it.

    He replied with a sigh soft, "Now that I have formed this soul core, things may not be the same anymore."

    Xiang Li winked, "Why don''t you leave the talking to me?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned before he roared loudly, "Xiang Li, you are such a genius!"

    "Of course I am!" Xiang Li giggled. "But only limited to the maidens."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    "Then you are still useless¡­" Ji Yuan frowned.

    Then he added. "In the celestial fraternity, you can never be too honest with the cultivators or they will eat you up like a defenseless child."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "I have never have any such issue with my own kind."

    Ji Yuan asked, "How many of your own kind have you met?"

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before she answered. "None I think. Do lesser spirit entities count?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I am not going to talk to you for a while and I will be focusing on my cultivation." Ji Yuan suddenly said as he began to study the bamboo slip again, defeated by Xiang Li''s remarks.

    "Hmm. ording to the notes that are left behind by Qianfeng, after I have formed the basic soul core, I can now begin to form the foundation soul core¡­"

    After the basic soul core is formed, there are the foundation soul core, the profound soul core and the apex soul core to be formed.

    Ji Yuan began to read the notes that were left behind by Ling Feiyue as well. "ording to the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, the gold core is the external power of the cultivator, the spirit core is the spiritual sea of the cultivator while the soul core is the internal power of the cultivator. Since the soul core is the hardest to form, it will usually take ten times longer to form the basic soul core to the foundation soul core and ten times longer for profound soul core. And the apex soul core will be ten times longer than the profound soul core¡­"

    "Shouldn''t you wait for Maiden Qianfeng first before you erm¡­starts practicing?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed, "There is no harm trying a little on our own. What will possibly go wrong?"

    "Everything will be wrong." Xiang Li giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "If something happen to me then you will not escape too, Xiang Li. So stop being a ck crow." Ji Yuan rebuked her lightly before his attention returned to his soul sea.

    "We only have one month left before the truce with the six major orthodox ns is over. I don''t have twenty months toplete this profound soul core¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was gasping, "What the heck! Xiang Li, take a look quick¡­"

    Xiang Li was startled. "You have formed the foundation soul core?!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes with astonishment. The minute that he had started to gather his soul sea to encircle his soul core, he had already formed the foundation soul core effortlessly."

    "What is going on? I am only joking about a genius¡­" Ji Yuan muttered. Clearly, he did not understand it himself.

    All of a sudden he took a look at Xiang Li who was glowing. "Xiang Li, why are you glowing?"

    Xiang Li was also startled that she was glowing all of a sudden and some parts of her body were even bing semi-translucence instead of translucence.

    She was stammering, "When you form the foundation soul core, I feel that there is a change in my soul."

    "You have a soul, Xiang Li?"

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    She gave a kick to Ji Yuan on his face but all of a sudden Ji Yuan gave a soft yell. "Ouch! That hurts Xiang Li¡­"

    Xiang Li was gasping, "I can kick you?"

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he rubbed his face. "Erm, you just did. How did you manage to kick me?"

    "After you have formed the foundation soul core?" Xiang Li replied with a delightful look.

    Then she gave another kick at Ji Yuan but this time it did not work.

    "I can''t kick it now¡­" Xiang Li was immediately saddened.

    "You need emotions, Xiang Li. Like just now." Ji Yuan suggested after a short ponder.

    "I hate you!" Xiang Li shouted as she raised her kick at Ji Yuan.

    "Ouch!" Ji Yuan yelled immediately.

    Xiang Li was immediately delighted. "I can touch you now, Big Brother!"

    "You sure can but can you don''t kick my face? Although I am a golden celestial and I won''t be hurt by your puny attack but you don''t kick someone in the face, you know. It is ack of respect to someone if you kick him in the face¡­"

    Xiang Li had suddenly pped Ji Yuan''s face all of a sudden as she giggled with great delight. "I can touch big brother now¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "You just¡­"

    "I didn''t kick. I p. Kekeke." Xiang Li pointed out with a yful wink.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No more kicks or ps." He frowned.

    But his thoughts quickly returned to the newly formed profound soul core. "But how did I form it so quickly? And howe I manage to form it so quickly?"

    Then he looked at Xiang Li. "Maybe it is you, Xiang Li."

    Xiang Li said curiously, "Me? I didn''t do anything at all."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Because I can feel the same profound energies in you when I form my soul core."

    Then he turned to look at Xiang Li as he continued to probe with his divine sense, "Weird, Xiang Li. When did you form your soul core? It seems that you already have an apex soul core."

    "I did?"

    Ji Yuan focused his thoughts again as he tried to form the profound soul core within his soul sea. To his utter surprise, he had formed his profound soul core in a matter of seconds.

    Then he focused his thoughts again to form the apex soul core. To his astonishment, he had also formed the apex soul core in a matter of seconds by linking his soul sea with Xiang Li.

    "Exactly as I''ve thought. It isn''t because I am a genius but because of my Xiang Li. It seems that my soul sea is only making a copy of your soul core because you have already formed yours. I am so lucky to have you¡­"

    All of a sudden, his throat was dry as stared at Xiang Li; Xiang Li was no longer surreal and he could see her loveliness and even sniff her sweet fragrance¡­

    "Erm¡­who are you?"

    Xiang Li: ???

 Chapter 175 Lets Show Ji Yuan Some Face

    When Bai Qianfeng had told Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess that Ji Yuan had finally seeded in forming his basic soul core, they were extremely thrilled.

    Xue Qianxue immediately proposed, "We should celebrate and get Ji Yuan a drink. He really needs a short break."

    Ling Feiyue nodded and was smiling with relieve too. She was actually worried that Ji Yuan may not even form his basic soul core. She said. "It really breaks my heart to see him working so hard to understand the meridians and profound energies."

    Little Princess nodded mncholy, "He is a sword cultivator and he didn''t need to think so hard in the past. To be frank, I was a little anxious as well."

    Internal profound art is harder to master than even external profound art. It is because internal profound art requires the cultivator to understand all 360 meridian points of their body which forms the vital points which cultivators can channel their profound energies. Just remembering all the names and positions of the vital points are already difficult enough.

    What''s more, that is only the theory crafting. In order to revitalize the meridian points (which is also called the clearing channel points) and linking specific profound energies together is another whole new level of hard work since all internal profound arts work differently and make use of difference channels to distribute profound energies.

    Also, the soul core that Ji Yuan is trying to establish requires the lesser known meridian points that are difficult to connect.

    Without Bai Qianfeng to guide Ji Yuan, it will be difficult for him to even form the basic soul core. Even if he had taken a thousand years of nonstop cultivation to study the True Sacred Saint Profound Art, it would still be impossible for him to aplish it alone.

    Although there are only 360 meridian points but thebinations exceeded 10,000 possibilities. One wrong move and the cultivator will be afflicted by phenomenon deviation.

    Ling Feiyue was now looking at Bai Qianfeng with grateful eyes. It was because she did not know that she had been practicing the True Sacred Saint Profound Art wrongly. Luckily she was only in the early stage of the gold core and it was easy for Bai Qianfeng to rectify her mistakes.

    Bai Qianfeng had exined. "Actually the True Sacred Profound Art that you have is not the best copy. It actually has many ws but when the original cultivator practices it, he doesn''t have those ws because he is able to synchronize with his own internal profound arts. But every cultivator is different with their own different attributes. That is why no single cultivation method that works the same for everyone."

    Xiang Li had actually recycled a dead ancient celestial in the past that possessed the True Sacred Saint Profound Art into a cultivation slip. Whether it is a good copy or not, she did not know since it is based on the dead ancient celestial experience.

    Based on Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue profound skills and attributes, Bai Qianfeng had worked out a cultivation method for them to form their gold cores. This would mean that they had to surrender their cultivation knowledge and even the intricate forms of their secret profound arts to her in order for her to create the unique cultivation method for them.

    Even though they did not really know Bai Qianfeng as she was the quieter one most of the time but the three maidens trusted her without a single doubt. In the eyes of the other cultivators, this may sound foolish because betrayals do happen frequently and there are many tales of betrayals. That is why the most of the cultivators are not willing to share the secret of their profound arts to anyone, including their own n prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    But to Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, they trusted her wholeheartedly because she had rescued them from an epic seventh rank deste beast while they were at the Five Heavens Peaks. That action had even caused her to receive a bacsh.

    As for Little Princess, she trusted Bai Qianfeng because of Ji Yuan, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue and she did not hesitate at all. After all, Bai Qianfeng is an immortal cultivator and her profound arts are not worthy to bepared to her.

    After Bai Qianfeng had worked out the cultivation methods for them, she said to Xue Qianxue. "It is no wonder why the Evil Cultivation Pce wants to obtain the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. Your Sacred Maiden Profound Art has the ability to aid the male cultivators to regain their profound strength. It is indeed useful to him."

    This is true. After Ji Yuan had copted with Xue Qianxue, he had fully regained his profound strength to his peak without the need of any profound pills or cultivation.

    Xue Qianxue did not understand what Bai Qianfeng had meant by ''it is indeed useful to him'' since she did not borate. Who was this ''him'' that Bai Qianfeng was referring to?

    By now, Bai Qianfeng had heard a lot of backstories on how Ji Yuan had met Xue Qianxue and the other maidens. She had a strong suspicion that Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Xia Jiajia was actually nning for Xue Qianxue to lose her chastity to Ji Yuan to thwart the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Ling Feiyue was now smiling, "I have managed to attain the foundation gold core now¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was smiling. "And I have attained the basic gold core. I''m sure in less than a month time, I will be able to reach the foundation gold core too."

    Little Princess was also smiling, "Same here! But¡­" She lowered her voice to remind everyone. "But keep it in a low profile. Ji Yuan, he likes his face. As his future consorts, we should not shame him in public."

    "I agree." Xue Qianxue said. "He is a pure sword cultivator. It isn''t easy for him to even form the basic soul core. He is only doing that because we are forcing him to cultivate with us. Internal profound art is simply not his forte."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "Yes. Indeed we shouldn''t try to demoralize him. He is already so hard in cultivating for the past two months. You know when I walk past his cultivation chamber, I can almost see his tears. Once I even saw him trying to tear his hair out¡­"

    "Erm, Sister Feiyue, you shouldn''t be going to his cultivation chamber." Little Princess said. "We''re not supposed to distract him."

    Ling Feiyue replied sheepishly, "I didn''t go in. I''m just taking a peek."

    Xue Qianxue lowered her eyes shyly, "Actually I did take a little look too. He looks really distress."

    Little Princess sighed, "Sorry sisters. I had taken a look too. I had even heard him muttering to Xiang Li for help but Xiang Li isn''t able to help him."

    All three maidens muttered at the same time, "Ji Yuan is so pitiful¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded quietly as she agreed with them, "His hard work has now been paid off finally¡­" She could see that Ji Yuan had lost weight recently.

    Golden celestials rarely lost weight because they can nourish themselves by cultivating the spiritual auras in the mountains. When they lost weight, it means that either they are unable to cultivate or because they are too stressful to cultivate properly.

    When a cultivator cultivates the spiritual auras from their surroundings, it is not as simple as absorbing it into their soul sea. There is a cycle of cultivating which takes time. An inhale of spiritual aura will have to circte throughout the cultivator''s body known as one cultivation energy cycle which can take between ten to sixty minutes depending on the cultivator''s realm level and internal profound arts. Once the cultivation energy cycle ispleted, the spiritual aura will be refined into the spiritual seas of the soul sea as a dew drop.

    Cultivation is actually not easy and many high level cultivators will rather spend most of their time to cultivate their spiritual seas for their next breakthrough.

    When Ji Yuan is losing weight, it means that he is spending less time on cultivation or he is just too distracted and keeps breaking his own cultivation energy cycle.

    All four maidens were feeling very pitiful for Ji Yuan because he had been losing weight and they could well imagine his stress level as he tried to cope with the high difficulty of forming his basic soul core.

    Therefore they had readied some wines and even food for Ji Yuan because they were afraid that he was actually quite miserable inside but because he was a good guy, he did not want to share with them.

    But when they were near his cultivation chamber, they could suddenly hear his deepughter. "Haha. Xiang Li, you look so beautiful. I wonder can you bend your legs like them?"

    All four maidens: ???

    As they entered the cultivation chamber, they saw Ji Yuan was holding onto Xiang Li.

    All the maidens were all gasping because there was a stately and an extremely beautiful maiden in front of them and that was Xiang Li.

    In the past, Xiang Li was almost translucent and there were no colors in her appearance. But all of a sudden they were all seeing a flesh and blood Xiang Li.<sub> </sub>

    Even Bai Qianfeng was shocked; it was not because Ji Yuan was holding onto Xiang Li but because Xiang Li was an immortal spirit. There was no way for her to have a material form!

    Ji Yuan was startled when the four maidens had suddenly appeared. He panicky exined. "This is not what you all think! I was erm¡­teaching Xiang Li how to walk properly. She used to erm¡­hover¡­"

    Xiang Li looked at everyone with an impish smile. "Yea! Big Brother is teaching Xiang Li how to walk!"

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "You don''t have to hold her waist¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "I am afraid that Xiang Li may have a hard fall. Haha."

    Xue Qianxue asked. "What is going on around here? How is it possible for Xiang Li to have a real body now?"

    Little Princess was muttering as she appraised Xiang Li''s flesh and blood appearance, "Xiang Li is really such a beautiful maiden¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled softly as she turned translucent again. "I can also dematerialize too!"

    All the four maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed, "Isn''t this amazing? Haha."

    "What is going on here?" Bai Qianfeng gasped with disbelief. Even in the Immortal Realm, she had never heard of such a thing.

    Ji Yuanughed, "After I have formed my apex soul core, I have found out that Xiang Li is able to have a material body."

    "Apex soul core?!"

    "You are kidding?"

    "Aren''t you at the basic soul core?"

    Bai Qianfeng quickly used her divine sense to examine Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she was soon gasping. "He has reached the apex soul core¡­"

    All the other three maidens were shocked at the same time.

    How is it possible? What did Ji Yuan do?

    "Well, I have identally found out that Xiang Li seems to react to my soul sea. Maybe because it is because we are sharing the same soul sea. Moreover she has already formed her apex soul core. Therefore I have thought of linking my soul sea to hers as I cultivate. To my surprise, it actually works."

    It was actually not as easy as Ji Yuan had made it sound. It was only possible because he was a sword energies cultivator and he was extra sensitive to profound energies.

    "So I figure out that I can simply use Xiang Li''s apex soul core instead." Ji Yuanughed.

    Bai Qianfeng continued to mutter, "How is it possible? You can actually link your soul sea to Xiang Li''s soul?"

    "Maybe it is because we are a perfect match. Haha." Ji Yuan tried to offer an exnation as well.

    "Yes! Big Brother and I are a perfect match to each other!" Xiang Li dered proudly.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I have an idea. Since you have a physical body now, why don''t you cultivate the True Sacred Saint Profound Art as well? Once you have formed the Spirit Core and the Gold Core, I can form mine straight away! Haha. Do you think this idea is good?" Ji Yuan asked Xiang Li.

    "I don''t know. I only want to sleep¡­" Xiang Li replied sheepishly.

    "Don''t bezy Xiang Li. Let''s try this. Maybe it will work just fine¡­"

    The other four maidens were all stunned by Ji Yuan''s suggestion. He was actually asking Xiang Li to cultivate in his stead.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan asked them, "You have brought wines and food here? Erm, for me?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly as she looked at the wines that were in her hands. "Actually we are just trying to console ourselves."

    "Yes¡­" Xue Qianxue slowly said. They had wanted to console Ji Yuan but it turned out that Ji Yuan had already formed his apex soul core. Forming the soul core is actually the hardest part of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    Little Princess was also smiling weakly, "Our cultivation progression isn''t as smooth as you. So we are trying to take a short break first."

    "Oh. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xue Qianxue turned to look at Xiang Li, "I shall get you more proper clothing. There is a wolf here and you can be taken advantage by him easily."

    Ling Feiyue nodded immediately, "That''s right..."

    Little Princess quickly added, "Xiang Li, don''t let him touch you when you are in your material form. This isn''t a good idea...keep a good distance..."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Why?"

    "You are too innocent. Trust us! Don''t let him touch you!" The three maidens immediately said.

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling weakly as she thought, "Xiang Li isn''t as innocent as you think. She has always been spying on everyone when she is in Ji Yuan''s soul sea..."

 Chapter 176 Exiting Seclusion

    Since the maidens were already in Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber, they began to drink until they were all slightly tipsy.

    As usual, Ling Feiyue was drinking slowly but Ji Yuan was not going to let her off and he was toasting her cup after cup.

    Ji Yuan suggested to them, "Oh no, don''t purge the wines or it will be such a waste of good wines. Tonight we are all going to get drunk together."

    "Xiang Li, can you drink?"

    Xiang Li picked up a cup as she took a sip, "It is hot¡­"

    "Wow, Xiang Li. You can drink too!" Ji Yuan was really astonished.

    "Yay! I can." Xiang Li had rosy cheeks as she replied. "I feel¡­real now¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng were all equally astonished that Xiang Li was now able to drink as they do.

    Xiang Li immediately took one big gulp after another.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Xiang Li, don''t! You will get drunk easily."

    "Oh!" Xiang Li blinked her eyes as she slowed down immediately.

    "You got to toast them one by one." Ji Yuan suggested with an impish smile. Yea, that is right Xiang Li. Help me to get them drunk.

    Therefore Xiang Li immediately worked on getting all the other maidens drunk unwittingly.

    That was how all four maidens got tipsy.

    When Ji Yuan saw that, he smiled to Xiang Li. "You can return to my soul sea first to sleep."

    Xiang Li was delighted as she immediately acknowledged with a soft chuckle. Ji Yuan had triggered their secret code!

    To the four other maidens they were all suddenly flushing as well. This was also a code for them that Ji Yuan was seeking to enter into union with them.

    Xue Qianxue was flushing shyly, "Ji Yuan, there are four of us¡­"

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were blinking their eyes. They really did not know how to react¡­

    "Isn''t this a little too outrageous?" Little Princess took a look around everyone.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were both smiling shyly and they had anticipating eyes; it was because they were used to serve Ji Yuan together.

    It took Bai Qianfeng sometime to react as she slowly nodded. Although she is an immortal cultivator but she has also sworn to be with Ji Yuan forever and her vows are stronger than any forces in the world once it is made.

    When Little Princess saw that Bai Qianfeng had nodded, she nodded in agreement as well.

    Soon Ji Yuan and all four of the maidens were all kissing one another to get into the mood. Although the four maidens were shy at first but they were soon all daring one another as they learnt from one another.

    Bai Qianfeng was actually no stranger to watching Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue in action since she had been spying on them when she was in her nine-tail spirit fox form.

    As for Little Princess, this was her first time seeing all the other maidens in action. But she was soon smiling as she yfully took out a cultivation slip. "This is a dual cultivation for five. Want to try it?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he took a look at the cultivation slip. "This is¡­really interesting dual cultivation¡­research material¡­"

    When Xue Qianxue took it from his eyes, she was flustering hotly. "This is¡­intriguing¡­"

    "Let me take a look¡­" All of a sudden Ling Feiyue was gasping. "This is¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes shyly, "All these positions are toopromising¡­"

    But she quickly said. "But it isn''t a bad idea to renew our pledge for one another."

    As the four maidens began to pour over the dual cultivation slip and was gasping one after another, Ji Yuan was already stripping them and throwing their clothes aside as he caressed them gently. "You are all my future consorts and good sisters to one another. We should try something new¡­"

    Xiang Li was drooling happily as Ji Yuan stripped them and her eyes were looking deliciously. "YES!!! YES!"

    -

    -

    -

    Another one month had passed in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect;

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had finally exited their seclusion and they were all smiling. It was because they all had a breakthrough with the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    As for Ji Yuan, after he had formed his apex soul core, he took his own sweet time for the basic spirit core. He did not have any sess because it was difficult for him to do anything in less than a month time. Or rather, Bai Qianfeng was helping her other sisters to cope with their gold core formation.

    His original target was to form the basic soul core anyway and he had arge degree of sess already.

    In thest month, Xiang Li be even more yful as she pped Ji Yuan from unlikely angles, causing Ji Yuan to be in distress for a couple of days before a thought dawned upon him; he had decided to take his reflex training to a higher level by asking Xiang Li to attack unexpectedly since she emitted no sound and profound energies for him to detect.

    Nothing out of the norm had actually happened between them for the past one month since Ji Yuan was mostly focusing on studying the basic spirit core formation.

    He had failed to see that something had changed in Xiang Li ever since she had a material body and she was looking at Ji Yuan more and more now. Even her bodynguages had increased a few times more than usual whenever she was around Ji Yuan¡­

    When they had finally exited the cultivation chamber, the five patriarch moon elders were already waiting for them outside.

    Bai Qianfeng as usual had switched to her nine-tail spirit fox form and cuddling in Ji Yuan''s arms as they stepped out together.

    "Did anything happen while we are away?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    She inhaled softly, "The truce between the six major orthodox ns and us is almost over."

    Ling Tianshui smiled, "The six major orthodox ns won''t be attacking at any time soon. It is due to the appearance of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has really descended?" Ling Feiyue gasped softly.

    Chen Yi smiled. "It is exactly as Pce Mistress Shui Xisi had said; the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is now descending. I wonder how she knew about this¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue was gasping, "So it has really descended? Where did it appear? I''m going¡­"

    Ling Tianshui immediately said, "Our Dark Mistress is not going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and this is final."

    "This is one in a lifetime trial. I must go." Ling Feiyue insisted as she hummed softly.

    Chen Yi and the other three patriarch elders said at the same time. "We can''t afford to have any danger befalling our Dark Mistress. You are not going anywhere."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Actually I am also thinking of taking a look inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Surely you are not thinking of stopping me as well?"

    Chen Yi smiled, "You may go. Don''t worry."

    "Oh? Haha. That is good to hear¡­" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    "You aren''t that significant to our sect." Chen Yi grinned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he rubbed his chin. "Well¡­"

    Ling Feiyue panicky said, "I am following Ji Yuan. Surely we can negotiate about this?"

    "The sect rules are clear on this. The prot¨¦g¨¦ master cannot enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. No more than 20% of the golden celestials of our sect are allowed to enter too."  Chen Yi said upromisingly.

    "My niece. This is for your own good. The survival rate inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth isn''t exactly high and it is the most dangerous trial of all." Ling Tianshui reminded with a pleading look.

    Ling Feiyue inhaled softly before she smiled weakly.

    Almost all the celestial ns have a simr rule. It is because if too many of the sect''s golden celestials have perished inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth then their positions in the celestial fraternity will be shaken.

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before saying. "Alright then. I understand. So is there anything else that is interesting that is happening in the celestial fraternity while we are in seclusion?"

    Ling Tianshui pondered for a while before she said. "Nothing much. Oh yes, there is one. There is an astonishing peerless maiden that is currently making waves in the celestial fraternity. She has been causing a lot of young masters and golden celestials to be smitten by her. There is even a talk to include her into one of the four great celestial beauties as a recement for Xia Jiaqing now that she seems to be missing."

    Ji Yuan could not resist a chuckle. "No one can be as beautiful as Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Xia Jiaqing. I say that my Little Princess or Shangguan Yan should be included in the new four great celestial beauties list."

    "My lord¡­" Little Princess smiled shyly as she averted her eyes.

    "Well, I''m speaking the truth. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Ling Tianshui smiled, "Actually all of you do know this maiden too. She is that Envoy Shui Sisi that hade recently."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s smiles stopped as he asked. "It is her?"

    He knew that Shui Sisi is actually the Venerable Pce Mistress Shui Xisi herself. "What is she up to?"

    Ling Tianshui shrugged her shoulders before saying, "She is representing the Water Melody Pce as an envoy as she is visiting all the major celestial ns and attending all the recent celestial conferences. I wonder if the Water Melody Pce is plotting something?"

    "This is indeed strange." Ling Feiyuemented warily. "The Water Melody Pce has always kept to itself. Do you know why?"

    Chen Yi said. "ording to our intelligence, she is merely visiting the celestial ns to foster a closer rtionship with everyone. She had been visiting both the unorthodox and orthodox ns at the same time. So it is really difficult to guess whether the Water Melody Pce is really plotting anything."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I say, she is just trying to show everyone how beautiful she is."

    Chen Yiughed, "This is highly unlikely. No one will do something like that. It just doesn''t make any sense."

    Except for Ji Yuan, everyone wasughing softly along with Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi as they agreed. It just did not make any sense for anyone to do something like this.

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "Only Ji Yuan will think of something this weird. She is probably under the instructions of her sect to foster a better rtionship with everyone. Now that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is descending, all the sects are trying to find their allies to minimize the risks inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This is only too normal."

    Chen Yi agreed. "Even a powerful celestial n like the Water Melody Pce also needs her allies to have an easier time in the trial. You will never know how many sects will bitterly fight with one another over the cultivation resources that are inside."

    Ji Yuan asked. "So how much time do we have before the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinthpletely descends?"

    Chen Yi replied. "About a month or two. If you want to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, you should be going there now."

    Then he turned to say to Ling Feiyue, "We have picked fifty golden celestials to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Five of them are saints. Once Dark Mistress you have given your approval, I shall inform them."

    "With so many golden celestials to apany Dark Lord Ji Yuan inside, we can assure that he has a good chance of returning from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth." He turned to grin at Ji Yuan.

    Xue Qianxue and Little Princess said at the same time, "I''m going as well!"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "No, you don''t. Stay around with Feiyue. I will go alone."

    Xue Qianxue folded her arms unhappily. "Oh no, you don''t."

    Little Princess smiled, "With so many golden celestials to apany us, you don''t have to be so anxious for our safety. The two of us are great saintess."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Even if you go with me, we may not be able to meet. We will be taken randomly inside. This is thew of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Even if you can find a big group of golden celestials to go with me, we may not even encounter one another."

    "Therefore it is too dangerous for Qianxue and Little Princess to go with me. The two of you will be alone¡­"

    Little Princess hummed as she interrupted, her mesmerizing eyes were staring at him as she raised her voice to say. "Hmph! My lord! Have you forgotten that I am also an upper heaven-step great saintess? I am on par with you in my cultivation realm. If you can go, so can I."

    Xue Qianxue added in with a smile, "I am only two minor steps below my lord¡­"

    "Oh no, you don''t." Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her. "Qianxue, didn''t you say you are carrying my seed? For the sake of our future child, you should not risk yourself so recklessly. Stay here with Feiyue."

    Xue Qianxue said mncholy, "I''ve thought that I have been cultivating for the past three months so that I may join you in your future battles. So how can you bear to leave me alone here? Have you forgotten how it is not easy for us to be together?"

    "This is a most difficult trial. I don''t even know if I will be able to return." Ji Yuan sighed.

    "Then don''t go?" Xue Qianxue said with a soft chuckle.

    "It is every golden celestial dream to visit the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in their lifetime. If I do not go this time, I may lose my courage in the future." Ji Yuan said firmly.

 Chapter 177 Approaching The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    For thest three months, the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity waspletely at peace. It was because of an unspoken sacred armistice that automatically happened when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had suddenly descended upon from the Immortal Realm.

    Now the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is bigger than entire mountain ranges. It will take several months for it to fully descend but it will not crash upon the mountain peaks but will hover just above it.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is always an imposing sight; the meditating pose of the Great God Pangu sitting on a gigantic mythical Xuanwu Tortoise.

    When it has fully descended, the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will elude a golden profound aura that can lift the golden celestials to the base of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. From there, the cultivators can enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth through the many passages that are below the tortoise base.

    Already dozens of temporary settlements had already been formed at where the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be anticipated to descend; it lies somewhat between three mountain ranges in the territories of the orthodox fraternity.

    Although the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be descending into the territories of the orthodox fraternity but the unorthodox cultivators will have the right of passage to visit the site and even build a temporary camp in the vicinity.

    Ji Yuan had taken the profound ship of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to visit thending site of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    When he saw the floating mountain of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he was stunned. "Holy crap, this is monstrous!"

    Almost half the sky was covered by the sight of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!

    Chen Yiughed, "It is actually even bigger inside. It is a world within a world in there. I tell you more on the specialws that are insideter."

    On the deck that Ji Yuan was at, he apanied by Chen Yi, Ling Tianshui and his three future consorts (Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue).

    Although Ling Feiyue was forbidden to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she could still apany him to the site.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as he gasped again at the dozens of profound ships and hundreds of flying mounts in the vicinity. Thousands of banners of the hundreds of celestial ns were shing below him.

    Ling Tianshui said as she inspected her map, "There are several settlements in this vicinity. However, the biggest settlement is the one that are a few miles away from here. We should go there because most of our allies are probably there as well."

    Then she grinned. "Our enemies, including."

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "We have nothing to fear from the major orthodox ns since there is a sacred armistice in ce. If we don''t show up then they may think that we fear them."

    Chen Yi agreed. "Then we shall go there immediately."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had noticed that Bai Qianfeng was staring at the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth intently. Although she was in her nine-tail spirit fox form but Ji Yuan was still able to tell that she had a troubled look.

    He whispered to her, "Qianfeng, what is wrong."

    Bai Qianfeng cuddled in his arms before she divine whispered to him. "The Great God Pangu is my most hated enemy."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly before he whispered. "However the Great God Pangu is our greatest savior."

    He was interrupted by Xue Qianxue who was suddenly pointing to a fast approaching profound ship. "This is the profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect!"

    "They are going to attack us?" Chen Yi was rmed as he shouted. "Tell our prot¨¦g¨¦s to be on high alert!"

    In  a short time, numerous cultivators from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect were called to the deck to prepare for battle.

    The profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect quickly came into view and they could see Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi, Sacred Maiden Zhao Songjin and several saintesses on the deck.

    It did seem to Ji Yuan that the Celestial Orthodox Sect was nning an attack as their profound ship approached too rapidly.

    However the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was fully prepared; there were hundreds of cultivators on the deck of the profound ship of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect who were poised to counter attack instead.

    When Little Princess saw that Zhao Songjin was on the deck, she began to hum coldly.

    Zhao Songjin was the first to greet them. "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue, former Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Little Princess¡­you''re all here."

    Then she turned to smile at Ji Yuan, "I have never expected that the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect will actually be the Sword Saint Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a nonchnt grin. "Sword Demon Ji Yuan. Isn''t this what the major orthodox ns have been calling me? Are you disappointed that you didn''t manage to kill me that time?" He was referring to the time when he was captured by the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Zhao Songjin slowly said as she gently raised her hands together in a polite gesture, which startled Ji Yuan. "The Celestial Orthodox Sect has no wish to pursue Sword Saint Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue anymore."

    Xue Qianxue was startled. "Is this from you or from the Matriarch Sacred Maiden?"

    Han Yuchi replied coolly, "What Songjin says is also mine as well. Qianxue, please take care."

    "You won''t being after us? Then why lead the major orthodox ns against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?" Xue Qianxue was astonished.<sub> </sub>

    She had actually regarded Han Yuchi highly in the past. But after she had learnt that Han Yuchi had spared Zhao Songjin, she was in disbelief.

    Zhao Songjin said. "It is all a misunderstanding."

    "Hmph! This is but a trick! I have fallen into her evil ruse in the past." Little Princess interrupted coldly.

    Zhao Songjin turned to Little Princess and said, "I hope that I can still be your good sister¡­"

    "Hmph! I don''t have such a good sister that can betray me. The deaths of my numerous prot¨¦g¨¦s are all due to your ruse." Little Princess interrupted coldly. "I have heard that you have betrayed Yin Wei after betraying me. Do you have any shame at all?"

    Zhao Songjin raised her fingers in a polite gesture as she bowed with her hands. "I know that what I did is wrong and can''t be forgiven. After I have killed Yin Wei, you maye and take my life."

    Little Princess was startled by what she had said and she had suddenly noticed that Han Yuchi and the elders behind Zhao Songjin seemed to be supporting her wholeheartedly.

    She thought, "They already know that she is from the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    This did not go unnoticed by Xue Qianxue too.

    Little Princess looked at Zhao Songjin''s dull eyes and was startled to see that she seemed to have a lifeless aura around her; it was as though she did not care about her life anymore.

    She seems so different now from when they hadst met¡­

    There was a softening in her eyes as she said. "Whether I want to take your life is up to me and not for you to decide. Go!"

    <o>,m Zhao Songjin bowed respectfully again as the profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect departed.</o>

    Ji Yuan returned a polite hand bow at the same time.

    "Ji Yuan, why are you so polite to her? Don''t tell me that you are interested in her?" Little Princess asked him with a slight annoyance.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Oh no, I am not. She is so polite and respectful to us. Why shouldn''t we ord her the same politeness and respect?"

    Xue Qianxue and Little Princess took a look at him and saw that he was serious.

    Ji Yuan exined quietly. "She has the eyes of the dead. Even though I have not seen her for some time but I can still remember her haughty vibes. She used to have plenty of fighting spirit."

    Little Princess slowly said, "If she is really sincere in repenting then I won''t make things hard for her. After all, she is just following Yin Wei''s orders. But Yin Wei must die by my hands."

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin as he pondered silently. "Hmm, this Zhao Songjin really looks like Shui Qingqing. I wonder if they may be rted?"

    -

    -

    -

    After the profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect had departed from the profound ship of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, Han Yuchi gently caught hold of Zhao Songjin''s arm with her trembling fingers. "Songjin, I have already lost your twin sister. I cannot afford to lose you anymore."

    Zhao Songjin forced herself to smile and she was trembling, "My life has no meaning at all. I will avenge your honor and mine as well. Yin Wei has to die by my hands."

    Han Yuchi shook her head, "You''re not his match while you are inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. His cultivation realm level is higher than you."

    Zhao Songjin shook her head, "But he doesn''t know that I have the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. I can still surprise him."

    "Will he enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?" Han Yuchi asked.

    "He definitely will. I know him well. He is ambitious and he is always looking for a way to be the Evil Cultivation Master." Zhao Songjin said coldly. "Therefore this is only chance that I have in nailing him down."

    Han Yuchi muttered, "This Evil Cultivation Master is too mysterious. You ought to be careful. No one has ever seen his true appearance and he has been living since my grand matriarch times. He is a monstrous existence. I am a little afraid now. You also saw how he can turn the three saint cultivators into three epic deste monsters. We had lost quite a number of prot¨¦g¨¦s in that battle."

    Zhao Songjin nodded. "I have never known that the Evil Cultivation Pce will have such secret weapon. Moreover I have never met that Sagess Mei before. Mother consort, please do not worry for me. I will be careful."

    Then she was sighing. "My greatest mistake is that when it is time for me to use my emotions, I have used ruse instead. I have let down everyone. Although I love Jin Yilong but I am just too wanton and I am unable to face him anymore."

    Han Yuchi said quietly. "Child, don''t say that. If he truly loves you, he won''t mind your past."

    "It is already toote for me." Zhao Songjin sadly shook her head.

 Chapter 178 Surprise Reunion In The Settlement (1)

    The number of cultivators that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect had brought onboard of the profound ship numbered some one hundred golden celestials and five hundred third to fourth realm cultivators.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as theynded near a vacant space near the biggest settlement.

    Chen Yi arranged for half of the cultivators to enter the settlement while the rest would stay behind to protect the profound ship.

    The ''settlement'' actually had little buildings but there were thousands of tents that could be seen. Some of the tents were sorge that hundreds of cultivators could actually be positioned inside.

    There were literally tens of thousands of cultivators in the settlement.

    As Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue, Chen Yi, Ling Tianshui and three hundred of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect made their way into the settlement, they were immediately greeted by dozens of respectful cultivators who seemed to be waiting for them.

    A golden celestial immediately greeted them with a smile. "I am Celestial Ouyang Heyi from the Jade Sword Mansion. It is a celestial n that is on this vicinity. This is actually our mountains and we wee you. There is a ce to setup your tents. It is our honor to have Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue to be around here."

    His eyes were roaming to where Ling Feiyue was as he announced it but he was unsure where she was because Ling Feiyue was donning a curtain veil as many of the female cultivators that were from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    There were many mutterings from Celestial Ouyang Heyi''s side and many of the onlookers around the settlement were all stopping their activities to look in Ji Yuan''s direction.

    "They are the cultivators from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    "Is that cultivator Ji Yuan?"

    "Howe they are all beardless?"

    "Which one is Ling Feiyue and which one is Xue Qianxue?"

    "Darn this Ji Yuan. There is a rumor that he had defiled both the two goddess maidens¡­"

    "And he is a beardless cultivator too¡­"

    "Maybe being beardless has turned him into a depraved cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuan was immediately rolling his eyes. His ears were pretty sharp and he could hear their not-so-nice murmurings.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were all giggling softly. They too, had heard the onlookers and they knew that they were mostly talking about Ji Yuan.

    Chen Yi immediately was feeling a little awkward too because he had no beard at all. Ofte, he had suddenly discovered that he was unable to regrow his beard due to the special pill that he had taken from Ji Yuan.

    He shot Ji Yuan an unpleasant look before he took out a spatial ring full of soul jewels to Celestial Ouyang Heyi. "This is a small payment foring to your sect''s mountains. Thank you for reserving a space for us."

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi was smiling broadly now, "It is actually our honor actually. May the Spirit Blue Moon Sect find great sesses in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Haha. How may I address you?"

    "Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi." Chen Yi replied with a nonchnt look.

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi was startled. Everyone knows that Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi was the leader of the five patriarch elders of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and he was also a great saint.

    He quickly stammered out, "Saint Chen Yi, I have always wanted to meet you. Haha."

    Chen Yi frowned. "You are an orthodox cultivator and I am an unorthodox cultivator. Why will you want to meet me? Or you''re thinking of joining the unorthodox side?"

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi was stunned that Chen Yi would actually have such sharp tongue. He was actually trying to tter him.

    Ling Tianshui hummed coldly from behind her veiled curtain. "I say that he is only trying to take a look at our Dark Mistress or even at Xue Qianxue."

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi was now smiling weakly; she was actually made the right guess.

    He was actually trying to ask who Ling Feiyue was next in a hope to have the honor to speak to one of the goddess maidens of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan was grinning, "You can speak to me. I am Ji Yuan. Haha."

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi took an uninterested look at him before he said politely. "In that case, I shall now take my leave. I hope that the Spirit Blue Moon Sect will have a fruitful hunt in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    He gave a disdainful look at Ji Yuan before he left. It was because Ji Yuan was a traitor to the orthodox fraternity and many of the cultivators from the orthodox fraternity had looked down on him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed as he shrugged his shoulders, "Guess no one is interested to look for me. Haha¡­"

    "Ji Yuan! You actually dare toe here alone!" A deep voice had suddenly called out to him.

    A handsome bearded cultivator in a white schrly robe was now approaching him with a sword and behind him were several golden celestials.

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "I don''t think I know you at all."

    The handsome bearded cultivator shed his sword at Ji Yuan and said angrily. "You may know me but I have actually known you for many centuries! I am Jian Lindong, the Third Young Master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor! Saintess Jian Yuluo is my little sister! I am here to take vengeance for my little sister!"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I didn''t kill your little sister. Surely you know that it is forbidden for the sects to fight while the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is still around?"

    Jian Lindongughed coldly, "I am not a three year old kid. Of course I know. Although there is a universal armistice but honor duels are still allowed. Or are you a coward? I have heard that you are a great saint now. Surely you are not afraid of a middle saint like me?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Go away. I don''t wish to fight you. Moreover you''re not my match."

    Jian Lindongughed, "I will not be your match? What a joke. You''re just a puny sword cultivator. I will not be your match?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly before he said. "Between your little sister and yourself, who is the stronger cultivator? If I can kill your sister, I can kill you as well. I may be a sword cultivator but don''t forget my title as a Sword Saint. You are only throwing your life away for your three minutes of fame."

    ? A gently and heavenly voice was suddenly heard saying. "He''s right. You are only throwing away your life unnecessary."

    A heavenly maiden with a gentle demeanor had coolly walked into the scene and she was apanied by an equally enticing maiden.

    Jian Lindong turned to look at the two beauties with a startled look. "You are?"

    The heavenly maiden smiled. "Fairy Ye Chengxi."

    Indeed she was Fairy Ye Chengxi and next to her was Shangguan Yan.

    There was a sudden ugly expression in Jian Lindong''s face. It was because everyone knows that Fairy Ye Chengxi''s old master is Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed when he saw them. He was indeed very surprised at their sudden appearances. "Haha. Chengxi, Yan''Er. You''re also here?"

    Then he was startled as he took a look at Shangguan Yan again and noticed her golden eyes. "Yan''Er, you are a golden celestial now?"

    Shangguan Yanughed softly and her lovely eyes beamed delightfully. "Yes, my¡­master¡­" She had wanted to call out to Ji Yuan as my lord but she had caught hold of herself.

    Ji Yuan had wanted to rush forward as well to catch hold of Yan''Er and Chengxi but because he knew that he was in public, he could onlyughed aloud. "Your master misses you so much."

    Jian Lindong said coldly, "Surely you know that your master is a traitor of the orthodox fraternity. He has long betrayed the martial code of the orthodox fraternity¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him with a frown. "How many times have I told you that I didn''t kill Saintess Yuluo?"

    Jian Lindong hummed coldly, "No one will believes you because we can all see that you are with the unorthodox cultivators now¡­"

    "I believe him!" A veiled maiden in blue veil and dress had appeared, along with several golden celestials behind her.

    Jian Lindong was startled to see her. "Saintess Fang Zhenfei¡­"

    Ji Yuan was roaring withughter, "Jiajia, Wuwu, Baiyue¡­"

    Indeed. Just behind Saintess Fang Zhenfei were Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei said coolly, "I believe in Ji Yuan."

    Then she turned to smile at Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess. "Come with me to have a little chat at my tent. Just ignore him."

    Jian Lindong immediately said. "This is between Ji Yuan and I¡­"

    But before he could finish, Ji Yuan was alreadyughing as he walked away with Saintess Fang Zhenfei,pletely ignoring him.

    "Wah? Chengxi, you are now a sixth realm golden supremacy now? Haha. It must be thanks to my strict instructions¡­" Ji Yuan was heard saying as he walked off.

    "Stop pasting gold on yourself!" Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were allughing jovially at the same time.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were looking at the veil maiden in ck as they asked. "This is?"

    Ji Yuan whispered to them. "This is Little Princess and she is my future consort too."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were both gasping with shock. They had always heard their old master cursing Little Princess for being a vicious bitch in the past. But now Ji Yuan was telling them that she is going to his future consort. This really came as a shocker to them.

    Ji Yuan quickly said awkwardly. "Little Princess is the angel of my life." He had quickly said so because he could tell that they were about to question him. In the past, he had often cursed Little Princess out of the blue in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed aloud to drown out any doubts as he grabbed Little Princess by her waist.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    Celestial Ouyang Heyi who had not left the scene was gasping. "So that is how Fairy Ye Chengxi looks like. She is indeed as lovely as a heavenly fairy. Her junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister Shangguan Yan is also an enchanting beauty as well. Between Shui Sisi, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, they are all so beautiful. If only I can have a look at Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xia Jiaqing then my life is worth it."

    Xiang Li however was the most delighted as she flew happily in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she pestered him. "All your love ones are gathered in one ce. So tonight? Bang, bang?"

 Chapter 179 Surprise Reunion In The Settlement (2)

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had grabbed Ji Yuan by his wrist as she pulled him along into her tent. They were immediately followed by Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Their jovialughter soon filled the tent as everyone was greeting one another as though they were one family.

    Shangguan Yan smiled as she took Little Princess'' hands, "My lord has always spoke well of you." Yan''Er had always been tactical with her choice of words so she tried to assure Little Princess.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "That is for sure."

    Little Princess smiled as she drew closely to Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, "Actually you do not need tofort me. I know Ji Yuan very well. He¡­has a foul mouth under the most normal circumstances."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the maidens were suddenlyughing jovially. "That is right! He is so uncultured¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "If I am truly that uncultured, why will all of you like me in the first ce?"

    "Because you got a pretty face¡­"

    "Because we are your victims¡­"

    "We have fallen into your hands¡­"

    "Because of your poems¡­"

    "Because we have fallen into Jiajia''s ruse¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan took a moment topose himself before he lifted Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan into the air with his strong arms. "Chengxi, Yan''Er. I didn''t see you for some time and the two of you have be heavier."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan immediately gave him a strong kick. "Are you saying that we are fat now?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he said, "It must be Jiajia''s plot to make the two of you fat so that I won''t dare to carry the two of you. Haha."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei looked away with a soft mutter, "You are as bad as ever¡­and unromantic¡­"

    Ji Yuan proceeded to lift Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue with his strong arms. "Haha. Wuwu and Baiyue. My two little sisters. How have you been?"

    "Who are your little sisters? Hmph!" Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue stammered at the same time. "And don''t touch us like we are your little concubines!"

    "So you are not going to be my little concubines?" Ji Yuan asked them with a grin.

    Hua Wuwu giggled. "Never!"

    "In your dreams!" Hua Baiyueughed softly.

    Ji Yuanughed, "You know. It is so nice to see all of you in the same ce again."

    Today, he was really very happy as he looked with endeavoring bliss at everyone¡­

    Shangguan Yan had walked to him quietly, "My lord, you have grown so thin since we havest seen each other. Are you well?"

    Ling Feiyue was afraid that everyone may think that she was mistreating Ji Yuan so she quickly exined. "Ji Yuan has been cultivating behind closed doors. So he is a little stress."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded as she touched Ji Yuan''s cheek bones, "My lord, you should take good care of yourself. I wish that I can be by your side to take care of you."

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed aloud. "I am good now. Don''t worry. Chengxi, Yan''Er. I really miss the two of you so much and I am so happy that the two of you have ovee your life and death tribtions. Tell me about it alright? It must be hard on you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled, "Maybeter. Pce Mistress wants to talk to you first."

    Ji Yuanughed, "And I have a lot of things to chat with her as well."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei chuckled softly, "Same here. So back to our official business."

    "Official business?" Ji Yuan growled softly. "What official business¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had taken out a map and had spread it on arge table in front of her. "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is likely to descend in these areas in less than a month time. So anyone of you will be going to take the trial?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes at her butt before he smiled. "I am going."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had a slight flush as she caught where his eyes were looking at and she quickly her right hand behind to pull down her short skirt.

    Ling Feiyue pped her hands on the table, "I''m going as well."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Oh no, you are not." He was now distracted from Jiajia''s butt and his attention was now on Ling Feiyue.

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "I want to go as well¡­"

    "You are not going anywhere as well." Ji Yuan said sternly.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei shook her head, "Sister Qianxue, you are not going anywhere. You can''t suppress your pregnancy inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. All profound signatures and seals will no longer be effective inside."

    Then she chuckled softly, "Or are you thinking of giving birth inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Xue Qianxue returned a sheepish look at everyone. "Alright. I shall stay behind¡­"

    Little Princess had a resolute look as she said firmly, "I''m going inside. Yin Wei will be inside and this is a golden opportunity for me to get him."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had suddenly gave Ji Yuan a tug, "How did you manage to nail Little Princess. Howe you have never told me anything about her?"

    Little Princess smiled, "So you have known Ji Yuan for a long time. It''s no wonder that you know where he is."

    She was referring to the time when she had thought that it was going to be her demise and she had pleaded with Saintess Fang Zhenfei to take ast look at Ji Yuan. To her surprise, Saintess Fang Zhenfei could actually track down Ji Yuan.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei nodded slowly, "Maybe you still hate me for driving you tomit suicide."<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess inhaled softly, "No I don''t. On the other hand, I am grateful to you for letting me have ast look at Ji Yuan."

    Then with a gentle smile, she looked at Ji Yuan and said. "Without thatst meeting, we will still be enemies."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested. "Without that fateful meeting, we will still never be enemies."

    Little Princess threw him a light punch on his chest, "Lies! You have scolded me when we had met that day."

    "Haha." Ji Yuan weakly protested. "Did I? I have forgotten about it. Haha."

    Then he quickly said to Saintess Fang Zhenfei, "Jiajia, ask her not to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    But Saintess Fang Zhenfeiughed, "You still don''t know how strong Little Princess is? If she isn''t injured at that time, do you think that I can even capture her? Since you are her lord, you should persuade her instead. Why let me decide this for you?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "Because you are Jiajia and you are smart enough to persuade her."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed aloud before he asked. "So who else is going into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan said at the same time. "We are staying put. We know that we are not strong enough."

    Ji Yuan was relieved when he had heard it and he was smiling at their decision. "Great. Stay with Jiajia¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled, "I will be going inside."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You are a sect leader. Who will lead your sect if you go inside?"

    Ji Yuan sighed, "I suggest that all of you stay outside and wait for me to return. It is too dangerous for you inside."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei eximed with a soft chuckle. "And it is safe for you? What? We have not entered into holy matrimony yet and you are already trying to lord over us?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Sooner orter, you will be. You are a sect master with considerable cultivation resources. Why do you want to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for? Is it worth to take the risk for?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei ceased her smiles to say solemnly. "I really need to go inside because I think the Evil Cultivation Pce is nning something."

    She inhaled softly before she asked. "Do you know that the Evil Cultivation Pce has created a Metamorph Project? They seem to have found a way to turn cultivators into monsters."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "Is it possible?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei chuckled before she pointed at the nine-tail spirit fox in Ji Yuan''s arms. "What about her?"

    "Qianfeng, right? If I am not wrong then you are an immortal cultivator, am I right?" Saintess Fang Zhenfei asked curiously as she looked intently at the nine-tail spirit fox.

    Bai Qianfeng quickly assumed her human form with a graceful change as she said quietly. "Since you have already known who I am, I have no reason to hide it from you."

    "Will you be going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well?" Saintess Fang Zhenfei asked her curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "I will be following my lord inside."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "We may not be able to meet inside."

    "I will search for you inside no matter how tedious it is." Bai Qianfeng said firmly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled, "Hopefully we can all meet inside."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "You really don''t have to go inside. Why don''t you stay out of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? If you do, I will apany you. How about that?"

    He really did not want Jiajia to take any risks.

    "I have to go inside." Saintess Fang Zhenfei shook her head. "Maybe I can even lend Little Princess a helping hand too."

    Ji Yuan turned to Little Princess, "Dearest Little Princess, I can help you to deal with Yin Wei. Maybe I may not be strong enough to ovee him but one day I will surely have the opportunity. It is not necessary to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to seek your vendetta."

    But Little Princess shook her head, "I can handle Yin Wei on my own. We will never be able to kill him outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This is my only opportunity. Even if I die trying, I have no regrets."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei interrupted with a gentle smile. "Let me brief all of you on what is going on for the past couple of months on the things that are happening around the celestial fraternity."

    Ji Yuanughed, "The night is still long. Why don''t we leave it toter?"

    "I have a visitorter and won''t be freeter. So I have to be fast about it. Chengxi, Yan''Er. You may want to follow Ji Yuan to his tent for the night." Saintess Fang Zhenfei exined.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was immediately frowning unhappily. Dang. Who can be more important than me? Is it a man? How dare he green me and take a look at my Jiajia.

    Xiang Li had heard Ji Yuan in his soul sea and whispered. "We can peep, you know. After all, with your stealth skills, it will be hard for Jiajia to discover you."

    Then with a soft chuckle she giggled. "I can float in and out without being discovered too."

    Ji Yuan wasughing all of a sudden. "Xiang Li, you are such a genius!"

    "Of course I am!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan had been trying to court Jiajia for a hundred years and he was not going to let anypetitor gets into his way.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei was now updating everyone on the recent events and thetest intelligence on the current movements of the celestial fraternity but Ji Yuan was not paying any attention. Instead he was now scheming with Xiang Li to do something about the petitor'' tonight.

 Chapter 180 Catching The Green Visitor (1)

    Ji Yuan obsession with Xia Jiajia happened one hundred years ago when he first caught sight of her. For the very first time in three hundred years, he felt he was ready for love again. His instinct told him that she was someone special.

    Even though he was usually wary of the intentions of strangers but he could not bring himself to walk away from Xia Jiajia.

    Actually what Ji Yuan had experienced was not unique only to him. 90% of the men that caught sight of Xia Jiajia will also think that she is the special one for them.

    The only difference between them and Ji Yuan was Xia Jiajia had taken the initiative to talk to Ji Yuan. Because of this circumstance, Ji Yuan was baited by her from the very start.

    Imagine his wounded heart that was crying for joy when Xia Jiajia had epted his pledge to wait him for a hundred years while he attempted for a breakthrough to the seventh realm level.

    Xia Jiajia actually did not believe that Ji Yuan would be sessful in his attempt because he was still so young. Therefore she was willing to wait him for a hundred years even though she had garnered a guess that his attempts would be an unsessful one.

    But to her astonishment, Ji Yuan had actually seeded in his attempt, a feat that stunned her since he had no cultivation resources to speak of.

    Ji Yuan had actually almost died in his attempt. It was the thought that Xia Jiajia may still be waiting for him that had kept his will to live strong.

    When he had finally breakthrough again, he was really happy to see Xia Jiajia again even though she had changed her name to Xia Jiaqing.

    Although he wanted to be with her, he had two important considerations and did not want to make himself known to her.

    One was that he was still rational enough to realize that it was the Emperor Hall Sect that had been bullying his Orthodox Sword Sect and Fairy Ye Chengxi while he was away. And the sect leader of the Emperor Hall Sect was none other than Xia Jiajia.

    At that time, he had felt a sense of disbelief and betrayal because seeing is believing. He had seen Elder Li Qiang of the Emperor Hall Sect cornering Fairy Ye Chengxi and bullying her. Therefore he was indignant. Then there were Hai Guotian and Deng Chao. The rest was history.

    As for the second consideration, it was because he had lost his beard and he did not think that Xia Jiajia would like his beardless self. He did not know that Xia Jiajia had the one and only portrait of his beardless self which she had purchased from the auction house and that she liked his beardless self more.

    And of course, Xia Jiajia did not tell him that her original ruse was to test his heart to see if he was worthy or not for her. It was because she did not want any man to like her because of her pretty face. She wanted to test Ji Yuan by putting him to the test to see if he would be moved by Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue if they were to meet.

    In the end, Ji Yuan did not follow any of the ruses that she had nned for him and in fact screwed up all her ns by his clumsiness and the cause of that clumsiness was an idental fall into Xue Qianxue''s bath tub.

    This caused Ji Yuan to think that Xue Qianxue would be after his life for dishonoring her and therefore he had quickly professed his love for Xia Jiajia in a hurry and ran off for his breakthrough just in case Xue Qianxue would be going after his life. At that time this appeared to be the best option for Ji Yuan since he had little hope of defeating Xue Qianxue or the powerhouses that were behind her.

    Xia Jiajia was actually overjoyed to see Ji Yuan again at the Emperor Hall Sect. She did not know if he had seeded in his attempt or not. But the fact that he was still alive,forted her. It was because she was always feeling guilty that she may have gone too overboard with her ruse on him.

    But when she saw him again and saw that he was looking as confident as ever and thinking that he was smarter than her, she could not resist putting up another ruse to test his worthiness for her.

    "So who is the stupid one?"

    Therefore she yed the bimbo in front of him.

    Ji Yuan of course did not realize that Xia Jiajia had long recognized him, beard or no beard and he could help thinking he was so smart and that she was such a bimbo.

    Hence they had begun their round two of the battle of the wits.

    Although Ji Yuan had cursed Xia Jiajia in his heart for being a bimbo and for stealing from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, he had chosen to defend her honor and never did he openly rebuke her even when he had met her again while she was assuming the identity of Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    In fact, she had purposely revealed her identity as the Saintess Fang Zhenfei to make him consider the option of ''betraying'' her to save his own skin.

    But Ji Yuan will have none of it and he was treating his pledge for her seriously.

    Now that Xia Jiajia had met such a man like Ji Yuan, how could she not truly fall in love with him?

    Although Ji Yuan had not officially gotten Xia Jiajia into holy matrimony with him as his consort yet but in his heart, she was already his.

    Therefore when he had learnt that Xia Jiajia would not be free to spend the night with him, he was naturally quite upset.

    That night, he had a quickie with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan before he rushed out of his tent. "I will be back shortly."

    Shangguan Yan rolled her eyes, "You know sister. I bet he is going to spy on Pce Mistress now."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was startled, "How do you know?"

    "Did you not notice that he seems to be quite restless tonight? It looks like our lord''s mind is somewhere else."<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gently said. "I wish that I am as smart as Sister Yan''Er. But why should he be spying on Pce Mistress? He doesn''t trust her?"

    Shangguan Yan giggled softly, "It is not a matter of trust or not. Didn''t you notice that his eyes were on Pce Mistress all the time as though he wants to devour her with his eyes?"

    "I did." Fairy Ye Chengxi chuckled.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was now making his way to the tents of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect where Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Xia Jiajia was.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were waiting for him to appear before they quietly followed him from behind, unnoticed by him.

    The two of them actually had an astonishing level of stealth too that was unknown to Ji Yuan and they could follow him unnoticed.

    When Little Princess saw that Bai Qianfeng was also following Ji Yuan, they joined into a group without exchanging a single word as they followed him. They were really curious what Ji Yuan was doing in the middle of the night.

    A whileter, Ji Yuan was now at the perimeter of the tents of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and he saw that the lights in Fang Zhenfei''s tent was still lit brightly. However he could only see a single shadow.

    He was quite relieved to see that his Jiajia was alone and he decided to lie low for a while.

    Soon he saw a ck cloak cultivator walking suspiciously into the perimeter of the tents of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and the other prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect were there to greet this ck cloak cultivator and they allowed him to get past them.

    Dang! Who is he? Ji Yuan was cursing silently.

    With a sh, he had decided to sneak as near as possible into Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s tent.

    Shortly afterward, he got as near as possible without being discovered by anyone and he could see the shadows of the ck cloak cultivator and his Jiajia from where he was hiding.

    He dared not go too near to the tent because he knew now that Xia Jiajia is a great saintess and he would be discovered by her should he approach too closely.

    All of a sudden he could see that they seem to be quarreling; he could not pick up any noises because there was an array inside that silenced the noises from within.

    "Why are they quarreling? This visitor is not friendly at all¡­"

    The next thing that had happenedpletely caught him by surprise. His Jiajia and the ck cloak cultivator were fighting all of a sudden with their fists, palms and fingers.

    "Jiajia is in danger?!"

    All of a sudden the ck cultivator had pinned his Jiajia down and had taken out a whip tosh at her.

    Ji Yuan waspletely stunned by what he was seeing. "This visitor is also a pervert! I must save Jiajia!"

    With that he had rushed forward with his sword.

    Xiang Li was also startled, "What is going on? We are going to rush in?"

    Ji Yuan had no time to exin to Xiang Li as he was rushing forward with all his speed. "We must stop this pervert from raping Jiajia."

    "Pervert?"

    "Yea. This pervert has a fetish for bondages. How dare he green me!"

    Xiang Li raised her fists, "Kill him!"

    "That is my intention too. My rage level is at its boiling point now!!!"

 Chapter 181 Catching The Green Visitor (2)

    When Ji Yuan rushed into the tent with his divine sword, he went straight for the back of the ck cloak cultivator.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei was startled to see Ji Yuan as he rushed in. "Ji Yuan, what are you doing here?"

    "I am here to protect you! Why else will I be here?" Ji Yuan had immediately unleashed a powerful wave of sword energies projectile as soon as he appeared.

    The ck cloak cultivator was startled by the surprise entrance of Ji Yuan and she was sent flying off in a thunderous outburst to the end of the tent.

    Ji Yuan could suddenly see the cape of the ck cloak cultivator loosening and her golden flock of hairs began to flutter in the air.

    He was suddenly startled because it was a familiar face and he had recognized her as Shui Xisi!

    Shui Xisi had an angry look when she was attacked from her back but as soon as she saw that it was Ji Yuan, she was smiling delightfully as she raised her feather steel whip. "So you want a fight?"

    Ji Yuan was stammering, "Wait! This is all a misunderstanding¡­"

    But Shui Xisi did not give him a chance to exin as she expertlyshed her whip furiously against him.

    In a blink of a few eyes, Shui Xisi had exchanged tens of strokes with Ji Yuan.

    Between her whipshes, she had also wed upon Ji Yuan''s face.

    Ji Yuan was stunned that her attacks were even more furious than thest time that he had fought her.

    "Why are you so weak this time?'' Shui Xisi questioned him as she attacked him at the same time.

    It was the truth.

    When Ji Yuan saw that he had attacked wrongly, half of his fighting spirit was gone all of a sudden and he was defending more than he was attacking. "Stop hitting my face or I will really turn nasty on you! Don''t force me to use my profound power art on you!"

    "Don''t hesitate and show it to me then!" Shui Xisi was taunting him fiercely.

    As they fought fiercely, Saintess Fang Zhenfei had shed in their midst as she knocked them aside. "Stop! Do you want to destroy mymand tent?"

    Although her tent was big enough to amodate hundreds of cultivators but half of the tent was already in a ruinous state after their short fight.

    "Sister! You saw that right? He attacked me! I''m only defending myself!" Shui Xisi was giggling.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Sister? Jiajia, you know her?"

    Shui Xisi asked curiously, "What Jiajia? She is Feifei, my sister!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei shook her head weakly, "This is Sisi and she is really my little sister."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "She is your little sister? But she has golden hair while Jiajia you do not have. You have different parents?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei: ¡­

    "I have a blonde hair too. I dyed it blue because I like blue."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuanughed weakly. "I see. Haha. So it is all a misunderstanding. But why did she attack you for?"

    "This¡­"

    Shui Xisi quickly interrupted her sister, "We have been fighting since we are little. This is not unusual. I have just learnt a new whip technique and I am showing it to my sister."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei sighed softly, "Although your whip is fast but it is useless against the high level cultivators. I doubt you can even defeat a sixth realm golden supremacy with it. Why are you learning such a useless whip technique anyway?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "It is notpletely useless against all sixth realm and seventh realm cultivators. Take for example, the pure sword cultivators that have no profound defenses."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Surely she isn''t thinking of learning this whip technique against me?

    Shui Xisi giggled again before saying, "The whip is also useful as a rope when I am inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well, don''t you think so?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei sighed softly, "Anyway, this is a misunderstanding. This is¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, I know!" Shui Xisi giggled. "We are great friends as a matter of fact."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei: ¡­

    She turned to stare coldly at Ji Yuan, "Great friends. Hmph!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stammered. "Erm, we are not even friends. Don''t listen to her. I had only known her when she had attacked the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    "Of course we are friends. If we are not, why are you so soft against me?" Shui Xisi asked him.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. It was true that he had missed her somewhat. But this was something that he dared not admitted because he could feel his Jiajia was now looking at him with an unhappy look.

    He quickly asked, "Jiajia, erm¡­she is really your sister? Do you know that she is the Matriarch Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce? She knows about you?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei nodded. "She knows all about me¡­"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Since she is the Matriarch Pce Mistress and also your little sister then Jiajia you must be very old?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei: ...

    "We are actually younger than you."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Darn...

    Shui Xisi interrupted, "Hey Ji Yuan. Are you going into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? We can keep a good lookout for each other inside."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly at her, "I am not going there to y."

    "You think that I am going there to y?" Shui Xisi hummed coldly.

    "You are not?" Ji Yuan said weakly.<sub> </sub>

    "Of course I am not. I am going there to help my sister." Shui Xisi giggled.

    Then she turned to Saintess Fang Zhenfei to say, "Sister, I shall not disturb you anymore. Come Ji Yuan, let go outside to fight another one hundred rounds! Or are you afraid of me?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "Who is afraid of you? Let''s go then!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei stomped her foot, "I have warned you not to touch Ji Yuan. He is your future brother-inw¡­"

    "I know, I know. It is only a friendly fight to test his readiness. I won''t eat him up. Why are you so afraid of?" Shui Xisi chuckled softly.

    Then she turned to say to Ji Yuan. "If you are not afraid then follow me!"

    Ji Yuan looked at her bosoms and her butt, "Well, I am not afraid of you. One hundred rounds are too little. Why not five hundred rounds instead?"

    "Five hundred rounds it shall be! Don''t cry for mercy before that!" Shui Xisi giggled as she rushed out of the tent. "Come follow me!"

    "Who is afraid of who?!" Ji Yuan shouted angrily at her as he shed out of the tent.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei shouted after Ji Yuan, "You are not my sister''s match¡­"

    But it was already toote to stop Ji Yuan.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei inhaled softly, "Maybe I should worry more for my little sister¡­she is too na?ve¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had quickly found a deserted peak and they quickly dueled for five hundred rounds.

    When the five hundred rounds were over, Ji Yuan was covered with bruises and scratch marks all over his body.

    But eventually he had emerged the ultimate winner as he had pitted Shui Xisi down on the ground and he was lifting her skirt up.

    Shui Xisiughed as she hit him hard on his face, "If you don''t let me go, I will punch you with all my profound power next."

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Go ahead then. Say, why did you go around as Shui Sisi? Are you trying to get my attention?"

    Shui Xisiughed, "Why are you so smart?"

    Then she added shyly, "What are your fingers doing below me now? You are not afraid that my sister will know about us?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Maybe you don''t know Jiajia well enough."

    "I don''t?" Shui Xisi asked curiously.

    "Jiajia is very smart. She probably knows that you like me and I like you too. She has a look of resignation in her face."

    "Why have your fingers stopped moving? You are chickening out?" Shui Xisi asked.

    Ji Yuan said, "I do enjoy our flirt. I know that you have a fiery spirit and I like your fiery spirit. But to be honest, you are Jiajia''s sister and do you really know what you are doing?"

    "Of course I know what I am doing." Shui Xisi hummed.

    Ji Yuan rolled away from her as he pluck a grass to grind it with his teeth, "Who knows."

    This time round Shui Xisi rolled on his chest with a soft chuckle as she pinched his nose, "You are afraid?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I have the iron guts of a donkey. Will I be afraid?" But he was secretly thinking; she had better not taunt me like Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. My Undying Fighting Spirit won''t be able to take her taunting¡­

    "Then why won''t you take me?" Shui Xisi asked him curiously.

    "Because we are best friends." Ji Yuan said before he looked at her intently to say. "And I want to know why."

    Shui Xisi sighed softly as she rolled over next to Ji Yuan. "In the end I can''t fool you at all¡­"

    Then she sighed softly, "I want you because my sister is interested in you. We have always beenpeting against each other. She is my older sister while I am her younger sister¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted. "It is not a healthypetition. The two of you are real life sisters and should try to get along well with each other."

    "You havepletely misunderstood." Shui Xisi chuckled. "Even my sister as well. She doesn''t know that the reason why I am alwayspeting with her is because I want her to notice me. We have always been fighting since we are little but our destinies are so different. She has a more noble destiny while I am the sheltered sister. Most of the time, she did not want to let me know because I know that she did not want to endanger me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yea¡­she didn''t tell me her ns too¡­" He was suddenly sighing. "Maybe because I am too weak to help her. I wish that I can help her."

    Shui Xisi had suddenly turned her face to Ji Yuan, "You are really a beautiful cultivator. How is it possible for such a beautiful cultivator to exist?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. I know that I''m handsome but even I dare not profess that I am the most beautiful cultivator."

    Shui Xisi smiled gently as she cuddled his arm, "I''m not talking about your looks but your beautiful heart. It is no wonder why my sister has decided to pick you as her destined partner. If you are smart enough, don''t give her up or you will deeply regret it."

    Then with a soft chuckle, she had got up. "Me, including."

    She lit a quiet smile as she shyly said in her heart; Ji Yuan, you have passed my test as well. You are worthy of me.

    Ji Yuan was startled when Shui Xisi had suddenly got up and in the next moment, she had departedpletely.

    ? There was an emptiness in his heart when she had left. "What does she means by ''Me, including?''".

    Xiang Li also had an emptiness in her heart as she muttered in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "So, no more bang, bang."

    Ji Yuanughed. "You have already enjoyed a free show earlier with Chengxi and Yan''Er. Don''t be greedy."

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, he was being watched by Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei was sighing softly. "All along I have thought that my little sister is only a trouble maker but she is only trying to get my attention¡­"

    "Thank you Ji Yuan¡­without you, I will not know about this¡­"

 Chapter 182 Sisters Reconciliation

    When Ji Yuan returned to his camp, he thought that there was no one around as he had been very careful.

    Unknown to him, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were still quietly following him.

    To their surprise, the first thing that Ji Yuan returned to camp was not to return to the tent where Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were.

    He had actually paid a visit to the tent of the Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui!

    Little Princess was startled. "Why did he go to the tent of Elder Ling Tianshui for?"

    Even Bai Qianfeng was startled by what she was seeing.

    Before the lights had gone off in the tent, Ji Yuan and Ling Tianshui appeared to be kissing as they disappeared into the darkness together.

    "Sister Qianfeng, what is Ji Yuan doing in Elder Ling Tianshui''s tent?" Little Princess asked weakly.

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head weakly, "I really don''t know. When did it happen? How did they get together?"

    Little Princess pondered for a while, "There isn''t a day when Ji Yuan isn''t with any of us. It is impossible."

    "Hmph! First it is that Shui Sisi and now it is our Sister Feiyue''s aunt. Ji Yuan, he is really too much!" Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan had dered that he would not be spending time in their tents because he ought to apany Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan whom he did not seen for a long time.

    But tonight he was caught red handed visiting three maidens in a single night; Saintess Fang Zhenfei, Envoy Shui Sisi and Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui.

    At first they had followed him out of curiosity and they wanted to know if he would really visit Saintess Fang Zhenfei and for how long.

    Although they did not catch him in the act with Saintess Fang Zhenfei, they had caught him in the act with Shui Sisi and Ling Tianshui.

    They were utterly speechless!

    "Let''s keep it from Sister Feiyue first. She may not be able to take it." Little Princess sighed softly.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "How did Ji Yuan and Elder Tianshui get together in the first ce? Did you see how natural for him to walk into her tent without even rming her. It is as though she is waiting for him."

    Little Princess was perplexed as well. She just could not recall there was a time when Ji Yuan and Elder Tianshui had the chance to interact.

    In the meantime Ji Yuan was rolling with Ling Tianshui.

    "Not so loud. Do you want everyone to know about us?" Ling Tianshui rebuked Ji Yuan gently.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "There is an anti-sound formation here, am I right? So don''t worry."

    Ling Tianshui sighed softly. "Even so, there may be sudden movements from the inside that may attract onlookers. You must know that the tent is paper-thin¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he kissed her passionately. "Don''t worry. Tianshui, I have been missing you for the past three months."

    Ling Tianshui shyly averted her eyes, "Me too. I have thought that you have forgotten about me¡­"

    "Never!" Ji Yuanughed.

    But he quickly said to her, "But I can''t stay for too long or the others will get suspicious. I have been out for quite some time now."

    Ling Tianshui looked a little disappointed. "Alright¡­I hope that the next time you will stay a little longer then."

    Xiang Li was stunned as she asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea. "Big brother. So this is the big surprise that you want to show me?"

    "Yea. Are you surprised?"

    Xiang Li danced with joy. "I am! I am really so happy!!"

    She was already drooling over Ling Tianshui''s sensual figure. "Big brother, I am so impressed by you¡­when did you nail Elder Tianshui?"

    "Haha, Xiang Li¡­now this is our secret. Don''t let Feiyue or anyone knows¡­"

    "Hehe! Xiang Li promises you that no one will ever know!"

    "Good, good. Haha! Remember your promise!"

    "She is going to be your consort?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly sighing, "It may only be a quiet flirt. I can''t handle so many alone."

    "You can''t?" Xiang Li was astonished. "Why?"

    Ji Yuan replied solemnly, "Have you ever thought of the possibility that they may gang up against you one day?"

    Xiang Li: ???

    -

    -

    -

    Shui Xisi had returned to her sister''s tent immediately after leaving Ji Yuan.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei was naturally waiting for her.

    "You look a little ruffle. How is your fight with Ji Yuan? Did you¡­"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly. "Don''t worry. He is still alive and well. But whether his face is going to be disfigured permanently, it depends on his own recovery."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled gently as she suddenly grasped Shui Xisi''s left arm. "Sisi, maybe it is time for you to stop being willful and settle down."

    p "I don''t want!" Shui Xisi protested immediately. "Feifei, surely you are not thinking of matchmaking me to any man just like this? You know that I have no eyes for men. Or is it because you want me to get out of the way from Ji Yuan?"<sub> </sub></anda>

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled gently, "What if the man that I want to betrothed to you is Ji Yuan?"

    Shui Xisi was suddenly flushing as she giggled, "Sister Feifei, surely you must be joking with me. Are you testing me or what?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfeiughed as she turned around. "It is only a suggestion. Since my sister is so reluctant to consider it then I shall not impose upon you. Back to our business then."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She suddenly chuckled, "Well, I can just consider a little¡­"

    "Forget it. s, it is bad enough that I will be imposing my will on my Sister Sisi. I am afraid that it may even strain our future rtionships." Saintess Fang Zhenfei pretended to search through a pile of scrolls while appearing disinterested in the topic.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "My good Sister Feifei. Do you need help from me to discipline Ji Yuan for you? I am pretty good at that."

    "No, I don''t. This is my family matter and not yours." Fang Zhenfei continued to browse her scrolls casually while muttering. "Where did I put it?"

    Shui Xisi''s mind waspletely uninterested in the official business as she protested weakly. "He is my brother-inw, am I right? So this is also my family matter. If I don''t help you to discipline him then how am I going to be considered your good sister?"

    "You''re never a good sister and always seeking to find troubles for me." Fang Zhenfei casually replied without turning her head back.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Fang Zhenfei had suddenly turned around with a wry smile. "In that case, I will let Ji Yuan know your intentions. The faster that he is aware that you are not interested in him, the better. Let me write a warning scroll to him then."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Sister Feifei¡­don''t! Wait!

    All of a sudden Fang Zhenfei had hugged Shui Xisi with a warm embrace. "Sisi, it must be hard on you all these years. Your yacting has even fooled me."

    Shui Xisi was startled. "Feifei, what do you mean?"

    All of a sudden she was gasping when she saw that Fang Zhenfei had bleary eyes and she was sobbing in her embrace. "Sister¡­"

    "I have overheard you earlier when you are chatting with Ji Yuan¡­" Fang Zhenfei said.

    Shui Xisi was flustered all of a sudden.

    "So all these years, you are only trying to get my attention?" Fang Zhenfei sighed.

    This time Shui Xisi had burst into tears as she trembled in her embrace. "Sister Feifei¡­I have always missed the days when we were little and the fights that we had¡­when we grow up, you are entrusted by mother consort with the important tasks and we are getting more and more distant with each passing day. I just want to be your little sister forever¡­"

    "So that is why you are always finding trouble for me¡­" Fang Zhenfei muttered.

    Shui Xisi nodded tearfully, "I was really very happy when you visit me a while ago. You must know that it is quite impossible for me to find you. You are always everywhere and you have even gone missing for a hundred years. I know that you are alive but I just don''t know where you are. Do you know how much that I''ve missed you?"

    Fang Zhenfei slowly nodded with a heavy air of mncholy. "I was waiting for Ji Yuan¡­"

    Shui Xisi actually did not know what was happened so she said, "He must be a worthy man for you to wait this long for him."

    Fang Zhenfeiughed softly. "I was actually getting irrational at that time and I didn''t know if I really love him back then."

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Tell me everything about him?"

    Fang Zhenfei smiled, "Before I do that, so what do you say about we share the same man?"

    Shui Xisi was flushing all of a sudden. "This¡­isn''t a good idea, am I right? This means that my sister will have to share his time with me¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei rolled her eyes, "I am already sharing Ji Yuan with so many others. Do I mind one or two more?"

    "So are you willing or not?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "You know that I am the pestering type. I may get his time more than anyone else."

    Fang Zhenfei winked at her, "Then it may backfire on you sooner orter."

    Shui Xisi: ???

    "The more that you show men that you are dependable on them, the more that they will not ce you in their hearts. You must y the cold game." Fang Zhenfei smiled. "Moreover, you don''t want to injure him every time you have a chance to talk to him, am I right?"

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly; she really enjoyed leaving her scratch marks on Ji Yuan¡­

    Fang Zhenfeiughed softly as she pulled herself off from Shui Xisi, "You still haven''t answer me if you are willing or not. Since my Sister Sisi didn''t feel that Ji Yuan is the man for her, we shall leave it as it is then¡­"

    Shui Xisi immediately flew into her embrace again with a blushed countenance, "Sister Feifei! I didn''t say no! Why are you in such a hurry¡­I just need some time to think¡­you know¡­this concerns my happiness after all¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei smiled as she looked intently at her, "And so?"

    Shui Xisi said shyly with a soft chuckle. "I am¡­willing! I have never seen anyone as fun as Ji Yuan¡­.hehe¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei returned a gentle smile. "So shall it be then. From this day onward, we are still the closest sister to each other."

    Shui Xisi nodded with a deep flush, "Sister Feifei¡­" At the same time she was already thinking of pinching Ji Yuan''s nose and face again...

 Chapter 183 More Good Friends

    Ji Yuan was taking a walk around the settlement. As usual he was cuddling Bai Qianfeng in her nine-tail spirit fox form.

    Today he was apanied by Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    The settlement had tens of thousands cultivators and the entire ce was like a busy street. The so call streets were actually the front of the tents as the cultivators tried to hawker their ''cultivation resources''.

    The appearance of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth had brought thousands of cultivators from all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity together.

    Most of the cultivators had never met before and this was a golden opportunity for the cultivators to form new alliances.

    Ji Yuan felt at peace for the very first time as he walked in the settlement due to the special armistice.

    Although the orthodox cultivators and unorthodox cultivators are often at odds with each other but there is a sense of martial honor when ites to the trials. No matter how grievous they are with each other, it is considered a disgrace to attack theirpetitors before the trials have started.

    This sense of martial honor was deeply ingrained in the hearts of everyone.

    And this is the reason why Ji Yuan was able to walk so peacefully around as he scouted the ce for interesting stuffs.

    Right now, no one cares if he is Ji Yuan or from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    At the same time Saintess Fang Zhenfei had told them a good news; except for the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, the other five major orthodox ns seem to have switched their target to the Evil Cultivation Pce instead.

    She had concluded that there may be two main reasons for the continued truce;

    One: the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was able to unify the other four major unorthodox ns behind her. Because of this, it was difficult to attack the positions of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect now.

    "It is all thanks to the strong leadership of Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue that is now throwing doubts on the feasibility of attacking the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes. It is all thanks to Ji Yuan¡­

    "Also, it is not worth attacking the Spirit Blue Moon Sect over Ji Yuan and Little Princess." Saintess Fang Zhenfei concluded.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he muttered, "Of course it is not worth it. They ambushed me and then im that I had killed Saintess Yuluo. These losers know that I didn''t do it and yet they are using me to justify their attacks."

    Second: The battle with the Evil Cultivation Pce had not concluded too well. Therefore if they still did not call off their battle ns to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect then the six major orthodox ns will be fighting against two major fronts or more.

    "Therefore the face-pping done by Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Ji Yuan and Little Princess have now been downgraded to a minor squabble instead of a sectarian quarrel." Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue then told Saintess Fang Zhenfei that they had actually encountered the Celestial Orthodox Sect on their way to the settlement and that was exactly what Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin had told them.

    "Ji Yuan and Little Princess, you ought to be wary of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, the Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Great Inevitable Divine n. They may have their own personal grievous to settle with you while they are inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled. "The Burning Heavens Pavilion and the Great Inevitable Divine n actually have some internal strife on their own and they are only too happy that you had helped them to get rid of their internal rivals. So they may not really make things too hard for you."

    Ji Yuan was really grateful to Jiajia for providing him with the intelligence on the current movements of the six major orthodox ns and that was why he was now in high spirits as he walked in the settlement.

    "Yuan Ji! So you are here as well. Haha."

    Ji Yuan turned around as he had recognized a familiar voice.

    He was frowning immediately when he saw that it was Mo Bei and he was stroking his beautiful long beard. Behind Mo Bei were several cultivators of his Mo n.

    "Haha. Howe you are not dead yet?" Mo Bei asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Mo Beiughed, "I have heard that you have fled to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. So you have finally believed the prophecy and had chickened out of the duel?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "No, I have won the duel."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Your soul sea is getting more and more impure now." Mo Bei warned him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "So you are here to take the trial as well?" Mo Bei asked.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Yea. You are as well?"

    Mo Bei stroked his long beard as he said. "I am."

    "Aren''t you too old for that already?" Ji Yuan asked.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "None of your business."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Mo Bei pointed at his nine-tail spirit fox before grinning. "Is your spirit fox for sale?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "No¡­"

    "This time I have decided to be more generous. Ten thousand high grade spirit stones and one fifth rank profound pill. What do you say about that?" Mo Beiughed. "You can''t find anything this good. Well, what do you think?"

    Ji Yuan held tightly onto his Xiaobai and said. "She isn''t for sale. Go away."

    Mo Bei looked a little disappointed but he soon asked. "Where is Qianxue? Is she with you?"

    Ji Yuan grinned immediately. "She is with Feiyue. They are at the tents of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Mo Bei stroked his beard as he looked at the four veil maidens that were with Ji Yuan, "Rascal, who are they? You have abandoned my Qianxue already?"

    Hua Wuwu immediately interrupted. "Mind yournguage! How dare you call him a rascal! He is a great saint now."

    Mo Bei''s jaws almost dropped as he stared at Ji Yuan, "You¡­are really¡­a great saint now?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That''s right. Haha."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "I don''t believe you rascal. You are just a beardless cultivator with an impure soul sea." Mo Bei muttered. "Let me go and look for Qianxue to ask her. Farewell."

    But before he left, he stroked his beautiful beard in front of the four maidens to ask them. "Well, what do you think of my beautiful beard?"

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "Beautiful indeed¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Hua Baiyue nodded weakly while Hua Wuwu had a look of disgust in her eyes.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him after Mo Bei had left, "My lord, who is this elderly cultivator? He looks strong. The two of you are talking so weirdly. Are you friends?"

    Hua Wuwu immediately said, "I don''t like him at all. He looks like a weird old man."

    Ji Yuanughed as he lowered his voice to say, "This weird elderly cultivator is actually a great saint too."

    Hua Wuwu had immediately turned ashen. "Ops."

    "Sister, I told you that you should control your tongue. You always have slip-ups. s." Hua Baiyue sighed.<sub> </sub>

    "He is actually Elder Mo Bei from the Mo n." Ji Yuan grinned as he continued.

    Hua Wuwu muttered weakly, "Then I''m screwed."

    Everyone knows that the Mo n is quite a powerful celestial n in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t worry. He is harmless and moreover he is Qianxue''s Patriarch Uncle."

    Hua Wuwu chuckled weakly. "Well, that is a relief to hear."

    Shangguan Yan smiled. "I am d that he is actually on the side of my lord. The two of you seems to get along very well."

    Hua Baiyue giggled. "Yea. The two of you seems to be so alike. Equally obsessed with your beards."

    Ji Yuan immediately raised his fingers up and said. "Nonsense! We are not alike at all. Beards are ugly! Only cowards hide their faces behind a beard!"

    All four maidens immediately rolled their eyes away and they were all trying their best to suppress theirughter.

    "Brother Yuan Ji!"

    All of a sudden a familiar voice was heard by Ji Yuan again.

    He looked up and was startled to see that it was actually Guo Taiming. Following closely behind him was Li Ye and dozens of cultivators from the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Ji Yuan turned to grin at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. "It seems that your suitor is here today."

    Hua Baiyue immediately hummed softly. "Hmph! Who will be interested in him?"

    "Yea! His beard is too ugly!" Hua Wuwu agreed with her sister.

    They were naturally referring to Li Ye.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Don''t be so mean. Show me a little faceter when they approach us, alright?"

    "Alright. For the sake of your beautiful face, so be it." Hua Wuwu smiled immediately.

    Hua Baiyue giggled. "For a beauty like you, I will show you a little face."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Guo Taiming and Li Ye immediately left their group behind as they quickly approached Ji Yuan to greet him.

    "Haha. Brother Yuan Ji, you are here!" Guo Taiming greeted him. "You are so easily recognizable in the ocean of beautiful beards. Haha."

    Ji Yuan began to frown unhappily. "You mean that I am the only one who is beardless in the ocean of beards."

    ? "Pce Master!" Li Ye politely greeted him.

    Although Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were veiled, Guo Taiming had actually recognized them. It was because he was all too familiar with them.

    He greeted. "My two sister-inw. s, I thought where did you go and you are actually here¡­"

    All of a sudden he stared at Shangguan Yan. "Yan''Er, you are a golden celestial now? Wow, congrats to you!"

    Shangguan Yan giggled softly. "I am just lucky."

    Li Ye had actually recognized all four of the veil maidens. He muttered. "First Pce Mistress, Second Pce Mistress, Maiden Yuan Wu, Maiden Yuan Yue."

    Ji Yuanughed as he patted the two of them. "Erm, what are you doing here? Are you thinking of going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to seek out some cultivation treasures?"

    Li Ye immediately nodded. "I have the intention to do so. This is the greatest trial in the Celestial Realm and I do not want to lose this opportunity. I hope that Pce Master will give me the approval to do so."

    "Elder Li Ye is an ascended celestial from the lower realm so naturally you have thepetitive spirit to go to the trial. You don''t have to ask me. Do what you like." Ji Yuan smiled.

    Li Ye smiled. "I thank Pce Master¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "We are not at the Emperor Hall Sect now. Just call me Big Brother for now. You know I don''t treat you as a prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Li Ye grinned. "Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan now turned to Guo Taiming to ask. "You are going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well?"

    Guo Taiming weakly said, "You know me, Big Brother. I am a mighty dragon that will challenge all the trials because I have the courage of a great divine lion. I really wish to challenge the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but you know that I am a sect master. If I perish inside the Empyrean Warrior  Labyrinth, how will my sect cope without me?"

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes; I have almostpletely forgotten that this best friend of mine is a good-for-nothing coward. He is only saying so because he wants to impress my Chengxi and Yan''Er¡­

    All four maidens immediately rolled their eyes too. This was themest excuse that they had heard because Guo Taiming had liken himself as a mighty dragon in front of them while cooking an excuse why he could not enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. They were all thinking at the same time; if he is really a mighty dragon then he should take the trial.

    Ji Yuan really did not know whether tough or cry at this mighty dragon mine best friend of his.

    All of a sudden Li Ye said, "Big Brother, I have something to tell you. I don''t know if you will approve or not."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Li Ye curiously. "What is it, my friend?"

    Li Ye inhaled softly before he said. "Do you remember Maiden Nangong Xiu?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin. "Nangong Xiu? Why does this name sound so familiar¡­"

    Li Ye smiled weakly, "She is your core prot¨¦g¨¦ that you had sent to the Emperor Hall Sect."

    "Oh. Haha." Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered her. "I remember now." Then he turned to Fairy Ye Chengxi with a grin. "Chengxi, I have found you a core prot¨¦g¨¦. Haha."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled, "Surely she must have a most impressive talent for my lord to decide to take her in as a core prot¨¦g¨¦."

    "She is a sword energy practitioner too." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Then he turned to Li Ye as he asked curiously, "What about her?"

    Li Ye hesitated for a while as he looked awkwardly at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. "I wish to take her as my main consort. We are in love."

    Ji Yuan was momentarily stunned. But he was soonughing jovially. "Well, it is good news! Haha! Go ahead and take her as your consort. Where is she now?"

    Li Ye replied proudly, "She awaits me at the Emperor Hall Sect. We have already made a pledge together and she will wait for me to return from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Guo Taimingughed as he patted Li Ye, "Brother Li Ye is so lucky. Your future consort is so pretty. If something happen to you, I will promise to help you to take care of her. Same goes for my Big Brother¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan and Li Ye had given Guo Taiming a kick, sending him to crash into the crowd.

    Immediately several cultivators from around them were shouting. "No fighting! It is against the sacredw of the trials!"

    Ji Yuan continued to punch Guo Taiming up as he shouted to all the onlookers. "This is only a friendly duel! It is not real fighting!"

    Li Ye was also punching and kicking Guo Taiming at the same time while shouting. "He is our brother and we are only teaching him a lesson!"

    Ji Yuan was raising his fists as he shouted. "Mighty Dragon you say. Courage of the divine lion, my foot!"

    "Big Brother, you exceed your quota already. Spare me please..." Guo Taiming was pleading as he cowered with his hands on his face. "Not my face please."

    "I haven''t hit my quota yet. This one is for my beard!" Ji Yuan said as he gave him a swift kick. "One more kick because you are themest golden supremacy that I''ve ever known..."

 Chapter 184 In The Arena (1)

    When Ji Yuan was alone with Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue again, he turned to ask Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue with a soft frown. "Why didn''t you greet Li Ye? It is only proper to return a greeting. After all, you know each other."

    Hua Wuwu hummed softly, "He is not you. Why should we greet him?"

    "We are saintesses while he is only a lowly golden celestial. ordingly to the etiquette of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, we need not return any greeting." Hua Baiyue added nonchntly.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Remember that you had faked your cultivation realm so you are all at the same cultivation realm. Also that isn''t nice¡­"

    Hua Wuwu interrupted, "We are not even from the same celestial n. He is lucky that we didn''t walk away."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "Maiden Wuwu, Maiden Baiyue. My sister and I are lowly celestials too."

    Hua Wuwu had a slight flush, "The two of you are different."

    "Yes." Hua Baiyue took a quiet look at Ji Yuan before she said shyly. "Because¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had walked away because he saw something interesting ahead. A group of cultivators appeared to be dueling with one another so he had hurried to take a look.

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ¡­

    Hua Baiyue stomped her foot angrily. "He is such a little rascal."

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi returned a weak smile to each other. Obviously they know that Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were always looking at Ji Yuan¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said tenderly to them. "If you like my old master, why don''t you take the initiative?"

    Hua Wuwu was startled. "Take the initiative? What do you mean?"

    "We can''t. He is our mistress'' lord." Hua Baiyue shook her head.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled. "If you never try, how do you know? My old master used to say this to me. I had once thought that it was impossible between us."

    Shangguan Yan held their hands and said. "Aren''t we good sisters now? We can help you. I know my old master very well. If you don''t take the initiative, he will likely to think of it as just a flirt. He doesn''t like tomit to anyone."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were disappointed immediately. They almost said at the same time. "He is so heartless¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled. "No, he is not. Once you know him well, you will know that he is actually a most sentimental man."

    "Didn''t he lift the two of you up when he met you again?" Shangguan Yan said with a soft chuckle.

    "It doesn''t mean anything at all." Hua Wuwu sighed. "He is only treating us like we''re his two little sisters."

    Shangguan Yan smiled. "When you had said to him not to touch the two of you like his little concubines, he did ask you, so you are not going to be his little concubines and the two of you replied never."

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ¡­

    "We are only joking. We thought that he is only teasing us¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled. "Actually we can all see that Ji Yuan has a fondness for the two of you. That includes Pce Mistress. If he doesn''t like you, he won''t hug you so openly. My advice for the two of you is simple enough. Be frank with your feelings."

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were flushing all of a sudden as they muttered shyly. "He is only a beardless cultivator¡­uncouth cultivator¡­who will like him¡­"

    They had actually liked Ji Yuan. In the past they were even thinking that should Ji Yuan failed his worthiness test by their mistress, they would still be willing to ept him. After all, they had already given him their first time.

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "If you still want to be in denial then we can''t help the two of you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was shouting in their direction. "What are you doing there for? Come over here! It is more interesting over here!"

    All four maidens immediately stopped chatting as they walked to where Ji Yuan was.

    There was an arena in front of them and thousands of cultivators were cheering for the many cultivators that were dueling with each other.

    These cultivators were having their honor duels to settle their previous vendettas with each other.

    Although there was an armistice but cultivators could still choose to settle their differences with a mutual agreement in front of the witnesses.

    And this arena seemed to be the ce where they could settle their differences. What was more, they had the witnesses of the hundreds of celestial ns that were around them.

    Ji Yuan took a quick scan at the duelists and secretly noted that half of the cultivators that were dueling did not seem to be having any life and death contest. Therefore he was not interested in watching their duels. It was because his sharp eyes could see that they were faking their duels in order to show off in front of the crowd. Usually these duels would end up in a draw.

    He was dismayed that there were so many fakers around as he cursed silently. "When I know how to fake my duel, the whole lot of you haven''t been born yet."

    p "Ji Yuan! Come over here!" A feminine voice had suddenly called out to him from the other end of the vast arena.</anda>

    Ji Yuan was somewhat startled that someone had actually called out to him.

    There were thousands of noisy cultivators that were watching the duels from all around the mountain slopes and cliffs. This voice hade from the top of a cliff overlooking the arena and her voice was concise and clear. This spoke volumes of her internal profound art and her cultivation realm level.

    And she was Shui Xisi.

    Her sharp eyes had spotted a handsome beardless cultivator and Ji Yuan was like an anomaly that stood up in a sea of bearded cultivators. Although there were also many beardless cultivators around but none was as handsome as Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi was spotted with Shui Qingqing and several of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Water Melody Pce on top of the cliff.

    Shui Qingqing was stunned as she looked at her Matriarch Pce Mistress. "He is Ji Yuan?! Isn''t he Li Yuan?"

    Shui Xisi smiled. "He is really Ji Yuan. Remember I am just Envoy Shui Sisi while we are here so I have to pretend to take my orders from you while there are strangers around."

    Shui Qingqing stared nkly in the direction of Ji Yuan. She had always wanted to meet Ji Yuan to correct him but at the same time, she had also missed Li Yuan so much.

    To her utter surprise, Li Yuan and Ji Yuan was actually the same person.

    She shook her head in disbelief and said silently. "Li Yuan, why did you lie to me? You are actually Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had an awkward and ugly look as he noticed that almost all the cultivators were now looking in his way. It was because Shui Xisi had just announced who he was to everyone¡­

    "So he is Ji Yuan?"

    "He is really beardless?"

    "He is the one that had killed Saintess Yuluo?"

    "He is really so handsome¡­"

    "He is the new Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect?"

    "Is one of the maidens that are with him, Ling Feiyue?"

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan is here¡­"

    "Sword Demon Ji Yuan is here¡­"

    "Great Poet Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I can''t believe that he has lost his beautiful beard¡­"

    "I have heard that the unorthodox cultivators are shaving off their beards because Ji Yuan has discovered a heaven-defying secret¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was looking extremely awkward and he had decided to ignore Shui Xisi, hoping that no one would look his way.

    He muttered. "I am going to pretend that I do not know who she is referring to."

    But Shui Xisi continued to shout, "The beardless man with the four beautiful veiled maidens. Ji Yuan,e over here and have a little chat!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, a veiled Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were also among the crowd.

    A curious Han Yuchi looked up the cliff where Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing were. All of a sudden she was gasping. It was because she had noticed that the pendant that Shui Qingqing was wearing around her neck was the one that she had put around her baby several hundred years ago.

    She was suddenly trembling because she had noticed that Shui Qingqing closely resembled Zhao Songjin!

    She had suddenly stood up and was gasping.

    Zhao Songjin was startled, "What is wrong, mother consort?"

    Han Yuchi replied with trembling lips. "I think¡­I may have found your long lost sister now¡­"

    Just as Ji Yuan was making his way up the cliff where Shui Xisi was, an angry cultivator had suddenly approached him; he was Jian Lindong from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor and he was shouting angrily. "Ji Yuan, so you are also here! Do you dare to ept my challenge for a duel?!"

    Ji Yuan ignored him as he walked away from him and he continued his way to the top of the cliff where Shui Xisi was.

    Hua Wuwu immediately reprimanded Jian Lindong, "Make way for us!"

    Jian Lindongughed loudly, "So Sword Saint Ji Yuan will actually be hiding behind the skirt of a maiden? Four maidens to be exact. A true man is someone who has a beard. It''s no wonder that Ji Yuan is now a beardless cultivator and is a coward!"

    He had purposely disyed his profound strength with his shout so that the thousands of cultivators in the vicinity would all be able to hear him.

    There was a twitch in Ji Yuan''s face as he turned to look coldly at Jian Lindong. "This is myst warning to you. Leave or else¡­"

    "Or else what?" Jian Lindongughed as he taunted Ji Yuan. "You are just a tortoise!"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Very well. I shall ept your challenge."

    Jian Lindong was overjoyed as he said. "Good! You are a man after all."

    He had immediately shed down to the arena below and had unsheathed a heaven-step divine sword. "Ji Yuan, so what are you waiting for?"

    Ji Yuan gently put down his spirit fox before he shed down the arena and he had unsheathed his half-step celestial sword.

    As he disyed his divine sword, he said coldly to Jian Lindong. "You are making a huge mistake by challenging me."

    The crowd was soon gasping with shock.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan actually has a celestial sword?"

    "But he is a pure sword cultivator¡­"

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan is actually a great saint¡­"

    "Jian Lindong is a middle saint¡­"

    "Who will win?"

    "This is very difficult to tell¡­"

    "Anyone knows what is Ji Yuan''s swordy ranking?"

    "Ji Yuan''s swordy isn''t even ranked at all¡­"

    "There is a rumor that he had killed Saintess Yuluo but there are no witnesses so his swordy isn''t ranked¡­"

    Jian Lindong said coldly to Ji Yuan. "Today I shall avenge for my sister."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Didn''t your father the Great Saint Jian Kang tell you that he has fabricated the lies about his daughter''s death?"

    Jian Lindongughed before he lowered his voice. "Ji Yuan, you are too ruthless. Many years ago, you have dared to vite my sister and now you have even killed her. You have dared to trample onto the pride of my celestial n. Today I shall make you pay dearly for this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "When did I ever vite your sister¡­"

    All of a sudden Jian Lindong had lifted his fingers and he was now wrapped in a ck profound armor.

    "What is this?" Ji Yuan was startled. He could immediately sense a powerful profound force within this armor. Profound armors in the Celestial Realm are five times rarer than divine swords and have formidable defenses.

    Jian Lindong smirked coldly. "You didn''t think that I have been preparing myself for this day, do you? This is the Wind Crescent Profound Battle Garb. Tell you one interesting thing first. With this profound armor, I am impervious to all sword energies attack."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Even if you have a celestial sword in your hand, without power profound arts to back you up, do you think that your profound strength can prate through my profound armor?" Jian Lindong hummed coldly.

    All of a sudden he had disyed his formidable profound aura with a burst of blinding golden light. "With my profound aura and profound animus to back me up, I can focus all my attack against you without a need to defend myself against you. No matter how fast you are with your sword, it ispletely futile against me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Qingqing was startled when she saw the profound armor that was on Jian Lindong. "Matriarch Pce Mistress, I think Ji Yuan is in trouble¡­"

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes as she smiled weakly, "I think the same as well."

    All the dueling cultivators that were fighting with one another had all stopped fighting and they were all looking in the direction of Ji Yuan and Jian Lindong. It was because this was a fight between a Sword Saint and a cultivation expert from one of the seven major orthodox ns!

    Even the crowd had grown tense as they muttered excitingly. "Who do you think will win this duel?"

    "Ji Yuan will lose because he is a just a beardless cultivator¡­"

    "Jian Lindong has a profound armor that is a nemesis to Sword Saint''s sword arts¡­"

    "Isn''t it cheating?"

    "The Profound Heaven Sword Manor is also a major sword n. Their Profound Heaven Sword is one of the most famous sword art in the fraternity¡­"

 Chapter 185 In The Arena (2)

    Jian Lindong proimed loudly, "Saint Jian Lindong. Young Master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor. Middle tier golden saint!"

    He had proimed loudly so that the thousands of onlookers would be able to hear him loud and clear.

    "He is Young Master Jian Lindong¡­"

    "He is so dashing¡­"

    "Look at the profound armor that he is wearing. Sword Saint Ji Yuan is going to be a Dead Man Ji Yuan soon¡­"

    Jian Lindong had a cold smirk when he saw that he had be the talking point now and he had got everyone''s attention.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand merely said in a nonchnt voice. "Ji Yuan. Seventh realm heaven-step great saint."

    Although Ji Yuan''s voice was soft but all of a sudden there was a muted silence and many of the cultivators had dropped their wine cups and spirit stones that were in their hands.

    Did Ji Yuan just say that he is a heaven-step great saint?!

    p Heaven-step great saint is already very close to a peaked great saint and they are all regarded as the peak cultivators.</anda>

    Most of the cultivators were actually expecting Ji Yuan to be only a half-step great saint or at most a mortal-step great saint. But the truth was, there were many cultivators that refuse to believe that Ji Yuan was even a great saint and that he may have bolstered his cultivation realm level up to wield his celestial sword. After all, profound pills that can bolster the cultivation realm level are quitemon to the rich cultivators.

    "Isn''t Ji Yuan just a golden supremacy a hundred years ago?"

    "Is there any saints around that can read that Ji Yuan''s profound signature?" Many of the cultivators were now curiously turning to one another to check for a golden saint that happened to be around.

    The instant that Ji Yuan had unsheathed his celestial sword, all the cultivators could sense the powerful suppression that was around Ji Yuan. All the cultivators that were below the seventh realm cultivation could sense with their divine sense that Ji Yuan''s profound strength was at the seventh realm. Although they could sense his cultivation realm level but they could not pinpoint his cultivation realm level because Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm level was much higher than them.

    Therefore they needed a seventh realm cultivator to tell them if Ji Yuan was really a great saint.

    Although Ji Yuan''s voice was soft but everyone was also muttering and making Ji Yuan the talking point now. It had the same effect as Jian Lindong''s thunderous voice.

    Some of the cultivators were now panicky gathering their spirit stones and asking to retract their bets.

    There was a twitch in Jian Lindong''s face. "You are really a great saint?"

    Ji Yuan said. "Haven''t you heard already? You are the one that is saying that a great saint dares not ept your challenge and moreover will your divine sense lie to you?"

    Jian Lindong''s cultivation level was almost on par with Ji Yuan. There was no way that Ji Yuan could hide his profound strength from him unless his soul sea was not at its peak.

    But right now, Ji Yuan''s soul sea is at the peak of the heaven-step and Jian Lindong knew that Ji Yuan was not joking with him. Moreover he could feel the pureness of Ji Yuan''s profound strength and it did not look like he had consumed any divine pills to bolster his cultivation level.

    But Jian Lindongughed it off as he said. "You should be one that is afraid or else you would have epted my challenge yesterday."

    Ji Yuan said. "Shall we begin our duel now?"

    Jian Lindong also had enough of the pleasantries.

    He leapt into the air and he and he had immediately raised his sword to disy a torrential of swords all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan was startled. He had of course recognized this powerful sword as the 8th Rank of the Profound Heaven Sword. After all, Yuxian had once used the same technique against him.

    Jian Lindong was pitting his profound power against Ji Yuan''s profound power. Therefore there were no fanciful moves.

    Ji Yuan immediately swung his sword as he unleashed a coiling wave of profound energy from his sword to meet the iing torrential of swords.

    There was a thunderous shing sound and a blinding light as the profound energies shed.

    All of a sudden the coiling light that was from Ji Yuan pierced through the torrential swords that were from Jian Lindong and had thrown him violently onto the ground!

    Everyone was gasping with shock that Ji Yuan''s profound power had actually exceeded a power cultivator like Jian Lindong.

    "Look at Ji Yuan''s sword!"

    "Double halos¡­"

    "He has a perfect harmony with his divine sword¡­"

    Indeed. Ji Yuan''s half-step celestial sword was now glowing with a two rainbow halos.

    Jian Lindong had quickly picked himself up and he was now looking hatefully at Ji Yuan. He was actually unharmed. Even Ji Yuan''s profound energies could injure him, it was weakened by his powerful profound aura andpletely neutralized by his profound armor.

    But the fact that Ji Yuan could ovee the 8th Rank of the Profound Heaven Sword was enough to make him extremely furious. It was a p to the face of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    He had not mastered the 9th rank of the Profound Heaven Sword yet. Only his father and sister had mastered to that level.

    "Did Ji Yuan just ovee the Profound Heaven Sword?"

    "What sword art is Ji Yuan using?"

    "It doesn''t really look very powerful¡­"

    Ji Yuan said coolly. "I think we can call it quits now. Either one of us will be able to gain an advantage over one another. It will be a battle of attrition. Your profound treasure is too strong for me to ovee while my profound power is greater than yours."

    Then he whispered. "You have to divide your profound strength into your divine sword and profound armor while maintaining your profound animus at the same time. If I y the slow game with you, you will not be my match¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you are a beardless chicken!" Jian Lindong had immediately reduced the defenses of his profound aura and all of a sudden his profound power seemed to have increased by a staggering leapt.

    "I have realized that I don''t even need to defend against you. You are unable to hurt me at all." Jian Lindong wasughing.<sub> </sub>

    There was a twitch in Ji Yuan''s finger when Jian Lindong had called him a beardless chicken.

    Jian Lindong had suddenly disyed his torrential of swords again and this time the entire tform of the arena was ripped upward in an outburst of destructive energies.

    This time the profound power of Jian Lindong''s sword art seemed to be doubled!

    Again, Ji Yuan had swung his sword as he disyed his coiling dragon sword art. Not once but twice as hepletely neutralized Jian Lindong''s profound sword art!

    Jian Lindong was bbergasted that Ji Yuan was able to use two sword arts at the same time and his jaws had almost dropped.

    But before he could react, Ji Yuan had disyed his most powerful sword art the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as wave of coiling white light that was twice as powerful as Jian Lindong''s sword art was suddenly upon him!

    Jian Lindong and many cultivators were startled that Ji Yuan could actually use three sword arts in just a few short blinks of an eye. This means that Ji Yuan''s had a startling profound energies recovery rate!

    Shui Xisi was delighted as she pped her hands as she cursed silently. "Dang you Ji Yuan! So this is your actual limit. You are not being serious when we are fighting. Now that I know your strength, I can freely use my more powerful profound arts to y with you, hehe!"

    Then her attention quickly returned to the battle as she smiled. "But your profound art is not going to bypass his profound armor¡­"

    Shui Qingqing had heard her and she was muttering. "Then will Ji Yuan be in trouble?"

    Shui Xisi had almost forgotten that her Qingqing had idolized Ji Yuan. She replied nonchntly. "He won''t die. It will probably end up in a draw. They are both saints."

    Shui Qingqing looked slightly relieved¡­

    When the white profound light had struck Jian Lindong, it had struck very fast and all of a sudden there was an explosive burst of implosion that was lifting Jian Lindong high up and to the stunned shock of all the onlookers, Jian Lindong''s profound armor was cracking in front of everyone''s eyes!

    Before Jian Lindong could react from his shock as the burning profound energies engulfed him, Ji Yuan had shed onto to him and gave a strong kick that sent him to crash onto the ground again!

    The instant that Jian Lindong hadnded onto the ground, Ji Yuan was once again upon him and he was punching Jian Lindong nonstop. "I give you a chance to back off but you don''t back off. Are you courting your own death or what?!"

    Shui Xisi was also startled by what she was seeing.

    Shui Qingqing was smiling with delight now. "It seems that my master can be wrong sometimes."

    Shui Xisi frowned. "I didn''t expect for him to master the true sword energies form. Although that profound armor can protect against profound energies but Ji Yuan''s profound energies is the same as attacking with his celestial sword in melee. Naturally the celestial sword is stronger than the profound armor. And that fool has even weakened his own profound defenses too."

    On the other side of the arena, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were actually quite anxious for Ji Yuan because they could see that Jian Lindong seemed to have an advantage over Ji Yuan.

    Only Bai Qianfeng was not anxious. It was because she knew that Ji Yuan was far stronger than he looked, especially when he had also just recently formed his apex soul core.

    In the meantime Ji Yuan was still punching Jian Lindong nonstop until his fists were bloodied with his own blood. After all, Jian Lindong was a saint and the instant that he had lost his advantage, he had begun to switch all his profound strength to defend himself.

    "I ask you to stop yet you refuse. Do you want to die by my hands so much?!" Ji Yuan cursed as he punched at the same time. "If you will apologize to me then I will let you go!"

    Jian Lindong spat out his broken tooth, "Heh! Never! If you give me another three hundred years I will be a great saint¡­and I¡­surely¡­be able to¡­"

    Ji Yuan punched him at his mouth. "By then I will already be a peaked great saint while you are just a mortal-step great saint! Or maybe the Lightning Tribtion will take away your life!"

    Jian Lindong gasped with agony. "Kill¡­me! Just¡­like you have¡­killed my¡­sister¡­"

    Ji Yuan continued to punch him furiously, "Precisely because of your sister, I am not going to kill you. But I should teach you a lesson for underestimating a sword saint! Even if you have ten lives, you will still be killed sooner orter for underestimating your opponents!"

    Although Sword Saints have no profound power art or defense profound art, most sword saints have a startling profound energies recovery rate and are capable of using multiple profound sword arts as apensation for theirck of offensive and defensive strength.

    Ji Yuan is actually strong enough to use two heavenly light of the coiling dragon in a blink of an eye. But that is a secret trump card that he is not showing yet.

    Just as Ji Yuan was thinking maybe it was enough already, a sweet mncholy voice had greeted him. "Ji Yuan, that is enough already. Do you really want to kill my brother?"

    Ji Yuan turned his head around as he stared nkly at an elegantdy in white who had quietly approached him.

    He was soon gulping as he stammered. "Yuxian, is that really you? You are really still alive?"

    The elegantdy in white was indeed Yuxian or more rightfully Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    Before she could nod to reply to Ji Yuan, she was already swept up by Ji Yuan and in the next instant they were both kissing each other passionately in front of thousands of cultivators.

    Jian Lindong was stunned. "Sister Yuluo? You''re still alive¡­"

    The thousands of cultivators were all stunned as well.

    "Is she really Saintess Yuluo?"

    "Howe she is still alive?"

    "She is Saintess Yuluo¡­I seen her before¡­"

    "Howe they are hugging and kissing each other?"

    "Aren''t they enemies?"

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan¡­Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo¡­"

    Ji Yuan had broken down in tears and he was trembling uncontrobly. "Yuxian! It is really you! Do you know how grief I am when I''ve thought that you are gone forever? Please tell me that this isn''t a dream¡­"

    Saintess Jian Yuluo was also in tears, "Ji Yuan¡­this isn''t a dream. I''m still alive¡­thank you¡­"

    Shui Qingqing was also in tears. She had always thought that Ji Yuan had turned to the dark side after killing Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo. When she saw them together, she was really delighted.

 Chapter 186 Epic Eighth Rank Desolate Monster

    Although there were thousands of cultivators in the open arena, all the cultivators did not dare to whisper too loudly lest they disturbed the tranquil moment that was between Ji Yuan and Sword Saintess Yuluo.

    They could only whisper softly and stared in bewilderment as Ji Yuan continued to kiss Sword Saintess Yuluo passionately.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were also shocked.

    Shangguan Yan whispered to Fairy Ye Chengxi, "Sister Chengxi, that must be Ji Hao''s mother consort. She is still alive¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was beaming with joy as her tears flowed down her beautiful cheeks. "Yes¡­our old master really misses her a lot and I''m so happy for him¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was staring in disbelief at Saintess Yuluo. This is impossible¡­something is not right here¡­

    On the other side of the cliff, Shui Qingqing whispered to her Matriarch Pce Mistress. "They are kissing. Saintess Yuluo is still alive?! Ji Yuan didn''t kill her?"

    Shui Xisi took a look at Saintess Yuluo with her divine sense before she said quietly. "Not for long."

    After kissing Jian Yuluo for a long time, Ji Yuan finally asked her, "Yuxian, howe you are still alive. What is going on?"

    Jian Yuluo shook her head gently, "I do not know exactly what had happened. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a crystal coffin and in a strange ce. When I saw the image of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth outside, I had decided to go in that direction. Somehow I know that you may be here."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "I am the one that put you inside that crystal coffin. I must be a genius for doing that. Haha. Since that crystal coffin can revive you then it must be an immortal profound treasure. Next time if I were killed, you can put me inside there as well."

    Jian Yuluo smiled weakly. "It is no longer possible now."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    She exined gently, "The crystal coffin broke into several pieces when I had opened my eyes. There was a huge earthquake in the vicinity, apparently caused by the sudden descend of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan was slightly disappointed that the crystal coffin had been destroyed but he soon shrugged it off because the most important thing to him now was that his Yuxian was still alive and he was only too d. "Haha, it is alright. As long as you are alive and well, I am truly happy. Yuxian, I am going to take you as my consort. Will you take me as your lord?"

    Jian Yuluo gasped as she shook her head, "No, I can''t¡­"

    Ji Yuan held her even more tightly, "No, you can. I already know what had happened¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled proudly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Thanks to me! It is all thanks to me! I had showed Big Brother yourst memories that you were trying to say but was unable to!"

    Jian Yuluo looked slightly confused before she sighed. "I''ve made an oath to my soul sea."

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "I am now a great saint. Your father will have no reason to protest anymore. I will go to your father lord to persuade him to lift this oath from your soul sea."

    I will beat him up until he agreed to it. Ji Yuan sworn silently in his soul sea.

    Xiang Li answered excitingly, "I will help Big Brother too!"

    "Xiang Li, you arepletely useless you know. Your punch doesn''t even carry strength." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Jian Yuluo was now looking nkly at Ji Yuan, "You''re now a great saint? How long have I been sleeping?"

    Ji Yuan pondered briefly before he grinned. "Less than six months."

    Jian Yuluo gasped and looked even more confused. "Aren''t you only an initial tier saint when Ist saw you¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "That is right. Haha. It is a long story. Let me tell you when we are alone. Right now I am going to take you away."

    Jian Lindong was stammering, "Wait! Sister Yuluo, is that really you? My sister you are still alive?! Are you really going with the man that had vited you?"

    Jian Yuluo turned to him with a gently nod before she sighed, "Ji Yuan has never vited me. We are truly in love. I am the one that had abandoned him in the past¡­"

    "No, you did not. You had your own difficulties." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    Jian Yuluo turned to Ji Yuan with a blissful look. "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Jian Lindong was stammering, "This¡­is¡­not what¡­our father lord¡­had said to me¡­"

    Jian Yuluo turned to her brother to say gently, "Brother Lindong. Thank you for your love toward me and my son. For this, your sister has always been grateful to you. Please do not make things difficult for Ji Yuan anymore."

    Jian Lindong smiled bitterly as he looked at Ji Yuan, "I dare not¡­" This Ji Yuan was too strong for him to handle.

    All of a sudden there was a loud rumbling and it seemed that a terrifying earthquake was now urring as the ground began to shake violently.

    There were severalrge shouts as a towering jelly-like monster was seen at the edge of the settlement and it had just popped in between two tall cliffs.

    The jelly-like monster was extremely gigantic and it was moving like a huge serpent, trampling over all the cultivators in its path.

    But the most shocking thing about it was that it was an epic eighth rank deste beast!

    An epic seventh rank deste beast is already stronger than a ninth rank profound deste beast. An epic eighth rank epic deste beast is like a beyond divinity monster, capable of destroying anything!

    "What the heck?!"

    "The spiritual auras here are either good or bad. There shouldn''t be any high level deste beasts around here¡­"

    "This monster seems to being our way¡­"

    "The cultivators from the major orthodox and unorthodox ns are all regrouping to fight that monster¡­"

    "Should we join them?"

    "Are you crazy? Even if you are a great saint, you can''t defeat a single epic seventh rank deste monster alone. Moreover this one is an epic eighth rank deste monster¡­"

    Ji Yuan grabbed Saintess Jian Yuluo as he regrouped with Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Hua Wuwu, Hua Wuwu and Bai Qianfeng. "This ce isn''t safe anymore. None of us have a hope of defeating this thing. We got to flee immediately¡­"

    All of a sudden hundreds of cultivators had surrounded Ji Yuan as they called out to him, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, Sword Saintess Yuluo. Please join us in the fight against that monster. We need your help."

    The hundreds of cultivators were a mixture of the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators and one-sixth of them were golden celestials.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He silently cursed them: Do you know that we are only throwing our lives? Even if we have a hundred saints together, we may not be able to ovee that thing¡­"

    All of a sudden many of the cultivators were pointing at the scene that was below them. The arena was actually situated on a higher elevation than the rest of the settlement.

    Thousands of fearless cultivators were battling the monster now and all of a sudden the jelly-like monster had spread its jelly tentacles in all directions and thousands of cultivators were instantly ripped apart!

    When Ji Yuan saw the scene, he was staring with disbelief. "Is this even a normal deste monster?!"

    It is actually not and it is an epic eighth rank metamorph monster that has ten times the regeneration speed and it is capable of growing multiple arms to attack everything within its range. It is actually a true monster that the cultivators have never seen before.

    Many of the saints, great saints, golden supremacies and golden celestials were now dying all around this monster. As for the thousands of non-golden celestials, most were killed instantly with only a few hundred survivors.

    The scene below had suddenly turned appalling and even to fear.

    At first all the cultivators had thought that with so many hundreds of celestial ns that were presented here, they would be able to take out this monster out. But now, the eyes of the cultivators had suddenly turned to fear and there was even a general retreat!

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes saw that Jiajia was among the cultivators that were still struggling to fight the monster, he was greatly rmed.

    "Everyone stay here!"

    Without a second thought, he had shed down the arena tform toward the direction of the gigantic jelly-like monster!<sub> </sub>

    Following closely behind him was Shui Xisi as she said panicky to him. "My sister is in danger! We must help her!"

    Amidst thousands of retreating and confused cultivators, Ji Yuan had sped through them and he was finally at the battle ground.

    Only a few hundred cultivators were still fighting this monster and they were all golden celestials from the hundreds of celestial ns; they all had a desperate look and many of them were now hiding behind the cliffs and huge boulders in the vicinity. It was because no matter how powerful their techniques were, this jelly-like monster was regenerating too rapidly and moreover it also had a formidable defense that rendered most of their profound arts useless.

    "Jiajia!" Ji Yuan quickly shouted over to Saintess Fang Zhenfei who was inhaling heavily. She had a heaven-step divine sword and she appeared to be injured.

    Ji Yuan could see that her leg was bloodied and she could hardly move.

    "Feifei!" Shui Xisi gasped with shock and her eyes were bleary.

    "Ji Yuan, Sisi. Why are you here? Get everyone to evacuate this ce immediately. I will buy you the time to retreat. This thing is too strong. We can only slow it down and not halt its advance." Saintess Fang Zhenfei shouted to them with a resigned look.

    Shui Xisi panicky said. "Sister, I can lend you my immortal sword¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei shook her head, "Your immortal sword is useless in my hands. Moreover I had already tested its defenses and I can hardly even scratch it. I can''t believe something this powerful actually existed. This must be a product of the Metamorph Project of the Evil Cultivation Pce. I am afraid that only our Xiao Ruan may be its match¡­"

    Xiao Ruan was actually the name of her spirit pet and she is an epic ninth rank divine blue phoenix.

    Then she was sighing. "Maybe not. This thing had the profound strength of an epic ninth rank deste beast and its regeneration exceeded anything that I have ever seen."

    Shui Xisi was startled. "Then we may need the help of our half-sister Fan Yuqing and Lu Qingyun¡­"

    All of a sudden Saintess Fang Zhenfei was startled that the gigantic jelly-like monster had found their hiding ce and was releasing dozens of its fearsome tentacles tosh furiously in their direction.

    Ji Yuan swung his sword like a shield as he charged out from the covers of the boulders around them, blocking the fearsome tentacles for Saintess Fang Zhenfei and Shui Xisi.

    He shouted loudly to Shui Xisi, "Take away your sister now! Don''t let her perish in this ce!"

    Shui Xisi protested.  "But¡­"

    "Go now!" Ji Yuan interrupted her.

    With a soft sigh Shui Xisi had picked up her sister and she had shed away with Saintess Fang Zhenfei protesting. "Ji Yuan,e back please...don''t fight it...."

    "Xiang Li, are you afraid of death?" He asked Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    "As long as I am with Big Brother, I''m not afraid." Xiang Li proimed with huge determination.

    "Good. Haha. Although I am usually not a hero but I feel like a real hero now. At least Jiajia and Xisi are able to escape."

    As he said to Xiang Li, he had had lifted his sword high and he was channeling all his profound strength into his sword while fending off the furious tentacles that wereshing against him.

    Xiang Li said panicky, "Big Brother, your profound power won''t be enough to prate through the profound animus of this monster."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "So any solution?"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "Do you still have your crystal celestium? Maybe you can socket it into your sword now."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. "Yea, I still got it." As he replied to Xiang Li, he quickly socketed it into the hilt. The crystal celestium can enhance his profound art power by 10%. It is not much but it is better than nothing.

    "So what next now, Xiang Li?"

    "We pray for the best." Xiang Li began to kneel down to pray earnestly. "I pray that my Big Brother will have the strength to ovee this monster and save the both of us."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I really don''t want to die..." he was sighing. "I have finally united with Yuxian again...more importantly, I have not banged Jiajia yet."

    "Yea. Me too." Xiang Li sighed.

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "You are a maiden...how do you bang Jiajia..."

    At this moment the jelly-like monster was getting too close to Ji Yuan and it had doubled its movement toward him.

    Ji Yuan saw that Shui Xisi and Saintess Fang Zhenfei were not far enough and he was determined to buy them as much time as possible to flee the scene.

    The shadow of this jelly-like monster was now towering over Ji Yuan and the relentless tentacles that were still attacking Ji Yuan did not cease at all.

    With a great shout, he had mustered all his profound strength to disy his most powerful profound art the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. Ji Yuan really thrown everything that he got now as he formed the true sword energies form and all his profound energies that he could muster from his spiritual sea.

    He needed more profound power now. Although he could disy two Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon with his current strength but he had to divide his profound strength into two profound arts. And it would not be enough to do any damage.

    A beam of profound light had burst forth in a dazzling light from his sword and to the startling shock of all the onlookers, the jelly-like monster suddenly had half of its body rippled apart and several momentster, its monstrous body hadpletely copsed on the ground!

    Ji Yuan''s half-step celestial sword was still shing brightly but it waspletely different now and the animus of his sword had transformed into an immortal-step divine sword!

    And on the forehead of Ji Yuan was a burning white runic mark!

    This Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was several times more powerful than what Ji Yuan could muster and all of a sudden Ji Yuan could feel that his sword art seemed to have elevated to apletely new level.

    And on his forehead was the mark of his own sword spirit!

    Sword spirits can be attained by acquainting the spirit entities of the deste monsters or in the trials. This method is the moremonly mean of acquiring sword spirits.

    The more difficult method of acquiring sword spirits is to form one''s own sword spirit. This means that the sword practitioner has to reach a great height in their sword''s state of divinity in order to possess their unique sword spirits and these sword spirits are usually extremely powerful because they are 100%patible to the sword practitioner and are customized just for them.

    Even Ji Yuan was startled that he had formed his own sword spirit at such a crucial timing and he was stammering. "Xiang Li, did you see that?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "My prayers work?"

    "No, my sword spirit! Muhaha. Finally I have my own spirit entity now and it is my own sword spirit! It is much better than my useless Xiang Li."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "And look at my sword. It can even be evolved into immortal sword!"

    Ji Yuan was now looking extremely conceited and he was quite excited. But after a while, he was looking a little perplexed because this does not exin how his sword art was able to defeat an epic eighth rank deste monster¡­

    And how the heck did his sword be an immortal sword?!

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Xiang Li had be even younger now and she was looking like a sixteen year old maiden.

    "Xiang Li, what has happened to you?!"

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes as she looked at herself, "I don''t know¡­"

    But before Ji Yuan could find out more, the half-copsed body of the jelly-like monster was reviving again and it was once again picking itself up!

    This shocked Ji Yuan.

    With trembling fingers, he raised his sword again to disy another formidable Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. This time round, the jelly-like monster waspletely disintegrated by the profound energies of Ji Yuan''s profound sword art.

    As Ji Yuan copsed weakly on the ground, he was muttering with a wry smile. "So my sword spirit allows me to exceed my profound energies limit to disy a stronger version of my profound art. With my current strength, it seems that I can only use my sword spirit twice before I exhaust my profound strength..."

 Chapter 187 Xiang Li (1)

    In the tents of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect;

    Ji Yuan was in a jovial mood in his tent and he was surrounded by many known faces; they were all the maidens that he was really familiar with; Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Fang Zhenfei, Shui Sisi and Bai Qianfeng.

    And of course Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    Right now Ji Yuan was introducing Jian Yuluo to everyone. "She is my Yuxian. And this is¡­"

    It actually took Ji Yuan quite some time for him to finish formally introduce everyone to Saintess Yuluo. It was because Saintess Yuluo would ask everyone politely where they were from and how did they know Ji Yuan.

    Saintess Yuluo teased Ji Yuan. "You''re so lucky to have so many lovely maidens to be your friends. I am reallyforted now. Ji Yuan, happiness has finallye to you¡­"

    "Haha. Right now, I am the luckiest man in the entire Celestial Realm." Ji Yuanughed heartily.

    But all of a sudden Saintess Yuluo had copsed without a word in his arms!

    "Yuxian?!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had immediately examined her pulse and she was shaking her head.

    "Jiajia? What has happened to her?" Ji Yuan was asking her panicky.

    Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng averted their eyes and they were reluctant to tell Ji Yuan the truth. It was because he had been so happy earlier, boasting about his earlier achievements.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were all smiling as Ji Yuan was boasting about his achievements but now their jovial smiles had changed into a panicky look.

    "What is going on?"

    "Saintess Yuluo has suddenly fainted¡­"

    "Is she alright?"

    Everyone was confused when Saintess Yuluo had copsed suddenly. Golden celestials especially saints do not copse without reason. After all, golden celestials are immune to illness and have superb regenerative ability.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei said quietly to Ji Yuan. "It is exactly as I''ve thought. She didn''t actually return to life. She is only living on borrowed time. I can''t exin it. Maybe I shall let Qianfeng exin it?"

    She could tell from Bai Qianfeng''s expressions that she knew something about it.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly but she dared not look into the eyes of Ji Yuan. "This is only my conjecture. The crystal coffin does not have the ability to revive the dead. It can only enhance the regeneration of the body inside but somehow Saintess Yuluo is able to revive. This means that she has consumed her spiritual seas just to stay alive. Even though her organs now appear to be intact but all her profound channels are void of profound energies. She is unable to absorb any spiritual auras because a dead person is unable to absorb any."

    Ji Yuan was trembling uncontrobly as he looked at everyone. "This is¡­impossible¡­Yuxian she is really alive¡­why are you telling me that she is dead?! Surely we have some miracle pills right that can help her? If she is not alive, how is it possible for her to be here?"

    "Miracle pills that can revive the dead do not exist." Bai Qianfeng said. "Even in the immortal realm, it is almost unheard of¡­"

    Shui Xisi said. "It is not exactly unheard of for people to be revived for a short period of time before dying again. During this period, they will look perfectly healthy and will show great signs of vitality. But it is only because they are consuming thest of their vital life energies in a golden reflection of theirst moments of life. I believe that Saintess Yuluo is using her golden reflection time so that she can have ast look at you."

    Ji Yuan cried out in great bitterness. "You are all lying to me, am I right? This¡­is a joke, am I right? Please tell me that this isn''t the case¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei muttered sadly, "Sorry. I can'' do a thing¡­"

    Xiang Li was sobbing hard in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. She just could not resist crying when she saw that Ji Yuan was so sad.

    "Big Brother, please don''t be so sad anymore¡­maybe I can help you¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was not paying attention to her because he had now punching his fists on the ground in great bitterness. "Yuxian, we have already been separated for so many times now¡­300 years ago¡­the Dream Trial¡­when you died¡­now you are finally back but you are only telling me that you are only back for just a little while?! What is the meaning of this?! Please don''t do this to me¡­"

    "Can wee in?" An alluring sweet voice had suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan from outside the tent and a couple had suddenly walked into the tent uninvited.

    The man was very tall, beardless and handsome looking while the maiden was absolutely alluring.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he saw them. "Brother Lu?"

    Ling Feiyue had also recognized Lu Qingyun but she could only raise her hands to bow politely as she was too distraught to say a word.

    When Bai Qianfeng saw Lu Qingyun, she was secretly startled. It was because this man seemed to give her a very familiar feeling¡­

    Lu Qingyun smiled as he said politely. "I am here with my cultivation partner Fan Yuqing. We saw your fight earlier and it is really impressive. Before we can aid you, you have already settled the fight."

    "Sister Yuqing!" Shui Xisi and Saintess Fang Zhenfei greeted at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was startled that Jiajia and Shui Xisi know Lu Qingyun''s cultivation partner.

    Fan Yuqing smiled. "It seems that we are interrupting a sad moment." Then she looked at Saintess Yuluo who was in Ji Yuan''s arms. "This maiden here¡­mmm¡­she is both dead and alive at the same time."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei nodded. "She is actually dead."

    "Why don''t you bring her back to life then?" Fan Yuqing asked curiously. "Or you''re letting your Ji Yuan be heartbroken for the rest of his life?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei muttered weakly, "Sister Yuqing really likes to joke. Bringing someone back to life is beyond our means."

    "Mmm, is that so?" Fan Yuqing said casually. "Yun''Er, why don''t you go and take a look at her?"

    Lu Qingyun nodded and said to the distraught Ji Yuan. "May I?"

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly and allowed Lu Qingyun to examine Saintess Yuluo''s wrist. While examining her wrist, Lu Qingyun was looking intently at Ji Yuan.

    After a while Lu Qingyun said as he looked at Ji Yuan. "She is indeed beyond hope."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You seem to care deeply for her?" Lu Qingyun asked.

    "Of course I do!" Ji Yuan bitterly said. "Can''t you tell?"

    "You have a sentient spirit entity inside your soul sea. Can you invite her toe out to have a little chat with us?" Lu Qingyun said.

    "How do you know that I have a sentient spirit in my soul sea?" Ji Yuan was frowning. "And why do you want to chat with Xiang Li for? You can chat with me directly¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei gently patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder. "It is alright. They are friends. Can we invite Xiang Li out for a while?"

    Ji Yuan nodded. "Brother Lu, please pardon me for my rudeness. I was not thinking straight. Xiang Li, can you pleasee out for a while?"

    "Alright!"

    When Xiang Li appeared, almost everyone who had already known her was stunned. It was because Xiang Li had turned from an eighteen year maiden to a sixteen year maiden.

    Xue Qianxue gasped softly, "Xiang Li, what has happened to you?!"

    Xiang Li giggled with a perplexed look. "Nothing has happened to me. Did something happen to me?"<sub> </sub>

    "You look younger now¡­"

    "Yea¡­"

    "Howe you are younger now?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Xiang Li, can you change back to your original look? You look almost like a lolita now."

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "I am always like this. I can''t change my form or appearances."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You are obviously more mature looking in the Lotus Sword Mansion. What do you mean that you can''t change your form¡­Xiang Li, I don''t have that kind of a fetish¡­

    Xiang Li had heard Ji Yuan in his soul sea so she giggled back. "I don''t know why but this sort of thing always happens to me."

    Lu Qingyun stared at Xiang Li for a while before he smiled quietly. "Hello, I am Lu Qingyun."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Hello, I am Xiang Li. I know you and your cultivation partner. You are in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trials at that time. There are also five big sisters with you too."

    Lu Qingyunughed heartily, "That is good to hear. Xiang Li, do you know who you are?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "I am Xiang Li."

    Lu Qingyunughed. "Then do you know who I am?"

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes. "No¡­"

    Lu Qingyunughed heartily. "You may not know who you are truly but I do know you for a very time¡­I have you in my memories¡­or rather in my sealed memories¡­"

    "But before that first..." Lu Qingyun had taken out a golden box carefully and said to Ji Yuan. "This is a sixth rank miracle pill that can revive even the dead. You can give it to Saintess Yuluo. This is our gift to you."

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "You are not kidding with me?"

    Not only was Ji Yuan stunned but everyone else was also.

    "Sixth rank divine pill?"

    "A miracle pill that can revive the dead?"

    "Is it possible?"

    Fan Yuqingughed softly. "You are in luck. My Yun''Er is a high level alchemist and he can concoct sixth rank divine pills. As for this life revival divine pill, it is the only one of its kind in the entire Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan quickly asked. "What do you want in return for this pill?" Even if he were to trade his immortal sword, he was willing to do so. He knew that Lu Qingyun was a sword cultivator as well and he may probably covet his immortal sword.

    Fan Yuqingughed. "Didn''t my Yun''Er already say that you can give it to Saintess Yuluo?"

    Ji Yuan stammered. "This is a sixth rank divine pill and sixth rank divine pills are all priceless miracle pills. Are you really sure about this?"

    Fan Yuqing replied coolly. "Feifei and Sisi are both my real sisters and they have been taking good care of my group while we are at the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Consider this our gift."

    Ji Yuan widened his eyes, "What? You are Jiajia''s sister?!"

    Although he had heard them addressing each other as sisters but it was because he had thought they were just being amicable. He had never expected that they would be real sisters.

    Fan Yuqing chuckled as she knocked her fist on Ji Yuan''s forehead. "And you are my dear brother-inw. Got it? So hurry and give it to your Saintess Yuluo."

    Fang Zhenfei and Shui Xisi were both smiling at the same time. "Our sister is indeed too generous to Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan quickly opened up the golden box to reveal a shining pill that seemed to condense the light. With trembling fingers he put it into Saintess Yuluo''s mouth.

    Please. Let his work please. He was silently praying.

    After a few moments of eager anticipations, Saintess Yuluo had slowly opened her eyes in Ji Yuan''s embrace. "Ji Yuan¡­I am not dead yet?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he examined her pulses; this time he could feel the profound energies that were circting in her body. "Yuxian¡­you won''t die now. We will always be together from now on."

    Saintess Yuluo smiled quietly. "That¡­is¡­good¡­"

    Xiang Li was absolutely delighted as she pped her hands joyfully. She turned to ask Lu Qingyun with a jovial chuckle. "So can you tell me who I am now?"

    "Not yet." Lu Qingyun had suddenly turned to Bai Qianfeng to say. "Brother Ji Yuan, you seem to have a dangerous mole here."

    All of  sudden there was  a shimmering phantom form a young girl that had appeared next to Lu Qingyun and she was pointing her fingers at Bai Qianfeng. "She is the Abyssal Null Goddess, an Almighty of one of the twelve citadels of the Ancient Fortress. Although she has hidden her deste aura but I am still able to remember her."

    Lu Qingyun chuckled softly as he introduced the phantom young girl. "This is Xingxin, my sentient spirit entity."

    Immediately, Fan Yuqing, Shui Xisi and Saintess Fang Zhenfei had unsheathed their divine swords and had pointed their swords at Bai Qianfeng!

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "I know that I can''t hide my identity for long, especially from the daughters of the Great God Pangu¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly jumped in front of Bai Qianfeng to say coolly, "Actually, I have already known who she is. Deste Immortal or not, does it matter? She is my woman!"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly, "My lord¡­"

    Even Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were shocked. They had always thought that Bai Qianfeng was only an immortal cultivator but today they had learnt that she was actually a deste immortal, an enemy to all the cultivators.

    Although they were shocked but they had all standing around Bai Qianfeng with a look of determination in their eyes; Bai Qianfeng is their sister and they have all formed their golden cores because of her guidance!

    Bai Qianfeng looked at them with soft murmur. "Everyone..."

    Ji Yuan raised his sword and said. "So if anyone wants to take away her life or take her away from me then I will put up a nasty fight. Even if that someone is also the person that I love."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei sighed softly as she put away her divine sword. "I think if this Abyssal Null Goddess wants to harm you or anyone, she would have done so a long time ago. Therefore I choose to believe the two of you."

    Shui Xisi shot Bai Qianfeng a cautious look before putting her sword away as well. "Well, if my sister says so¡­"

    Fan Yuqing had also put away her sword. "I don''t think their feelings can be faked too."

    Lu Qingyun said to Ji Yuan. "Please pardon us. We didn''t know that you have known about her identity."

    Bai Qianfeng stared at Lu Qingyun as she trembled, "You are a deste immortal too, am I right? And you are a high ranking one too¡­"

    Lu Qingyunughed, "Who I am is no longer important anymore. The most important thing is, we are on the same side now. Do you agree with me?"

    Bai Qianfeng hesitated as she turned to look at Saintess Fang Zhenfei, Shui Xisi, Fan Yuqing before returning her look to Lu Qingyun. "I am against this Metamorph Project. This is not our warrior way. And yes, we are now on the same side¡­"

 Chapter 188 Xiang Li (2)

    In the secret citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce, the Evil Cultivation Master was now viewing the memory stone together with the Sagess Mei and Sagess Alyssa.

    All three of them appeared to be somewhat shocked as they watched the rey of the memory stone again and again as Ji Yuan obliterated the epic eighth rank metamorph monster.

    The Evil Cultivation Master trembled lightly as he said coldly, "What do you think about this?"

    The Sagess Alyssa muttered, "It is impossible for Ji Yuan to have this type of profound strength and¡­profound power."

    "Is it because that he has an immortal sword?" The Sagess Mei said with an anxious look. She was in charge of this mission to attack the settlement and she had failed her mission.

    The n of the Evil Cultivation Pce was simple enough and it was due to the appearance of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth that had given them such a golden opportunity for so many elites of the celestial ns to gather in the same ce.

    Not too long ago, the Evil Cultivation Pce had found a barely alive epic eighth rank deste beast and had revived this monster with thest of their metamorph core.

    And this revived epic eighth rank deste beast would be their ultimate weapon to destroy the elites of the celestial ns.

    Only two minor settlements had been destroyed by their ultimate weapon before it was destroyed by Ji Yuan at the outskirt of the biggest settlement.

    When the Sagess Mei saw that their ultimate weapon had been destroyed, she had ordered the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce to quietly back off.

    "Are you sure that he has an immortal sword?" The Evil Cultivation Master questioned solemnly.

    The Sagess Mei nodded weakly. "I think so."

    "What do you mean by you think so?" The Evil Cultivation Master frowned with great displeasure.

    "It may be more than just an immortal-step divine sword. It may even be a saintly divine sword." The Sagess Mei answered with a frightful look.

    The Sagess Alyssa was startled, "Sister, are you sure about this?! You can''t joke about this. It is impossible for saint swords to exist anymore. The number of saint swords is less than seven and these saint swords all have names and are all in the hands of the great immortal gods."

    The Sagess Mei muttered weakly, "My divine sense is off the scale at that time. Hopefully I am wrong and this may be due to the profound power of his profound sword art."

    The Sagess Alyssa asked. "Maybe it is because of his sword spirit? I saw the manifestation of his sword spirit on his forehead in the memory stone."

    The Sagess Mei answered with a confused look. "Maybe¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation Master said solemnly. "Immortal-step or saint-step divine sword isn''t the main point here. This Ji Yuan can destroy an epic eighth rank metamorph in such a casual manner. It isn''t something that any seventh realm great saint is capable of doing and moreover he is merely a sword cultivator. Calling him a sword saint is just an honorable way of acknowledging that he is better with a sword than most but this doesn''t change the fact that his profound power is weak."

    With a short pause, he added unhappily. "But now he can actually disy his profound power to the eighth realm cultivation level. Somehow he has managed to use profound power that is beyond any cultivators in the Celestial Realm."

    The Sagess Mei nodded quietly. "Even if I were not restricted here and I were to be able to use my eighth realm cultivation profound strength, I am still not capable of unleashing such raw profound power unless I could somehow form my soul core."

    The Sagess Alyssa hummed hatefully, the memories of her defeat to Ji Yuan was still lingering on her mind, "This Ji Yuan is just a good-for-nothing cultivator that wastes his time doing meaningless things. With his impure soul sea, it is impossible for him to form any soul core. Moreover he has to first start off with the gold core first and that itself is an extremely tedious progress. I say that he has a profound treasure to aid him."

    The Evil Cultivation Master closed his eyes to ponder for a while before he opened his eyes again. "In the past, I didn''t even think of this Ji Yuan as a real threat and only as a bothersome insect that is an irritation. I am so wrong."

    The Sagess Mei, the Sagess Alyssa: ???

    "Now he has really be a real threat to our domination. We have set our sights on our potential enemies but have failed to monitor an insignificant cultivator that has suddenlye into the picture from nowhere." The Evil Cultivation Master sighed heavily. "We have really miscalcted this time."

    He lifted his bony fingers to say. "Get me Yin Xiong here."

    "I will go and get him." The Sagess Alyssa said quietly.

    Before long a ck robe cultivator had entered the chamber and he was the Second Citadel Lord Yin Xiong. "Father lord, you are looking for me?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master said coldly. "How many more golden celestials do you need toplete the immortal sword?"

    Yin Xiong had a look of hesitant in his eyes. "Erm¡­"

    "Enough of looking for victims with the false treasure maps. We are going to sacrifice our own golden celestials. I want the immortal sword to bepleted as soon as possible." The Evil Cultivation Mastermanded sternly.

    Yin Xiong broke into a cold sweat as he fell onto the ground. "Father! Please forgive me¡­I¡­I lost the sword¡­"

    "What do you mean you''ve lost the sword? Isn''t the immortal array still intact?" The Evil Cultivation Master shot him an angry look. He had created an immortal array that held a celestial-step divine sword to nurture it into an immortal-step divine sword.

    If the immortal array is breeched then he will know immediately. But the fact is, this immortal array is still intact.

    Yin Xiong panicky stammered out. "A joker has reced the celestial sword with a lowly divine sword¡­"

    The Evil Pce Master was stunned. "My celestial sword is stolen under your charge and you are only telling me now?! Why didn''t you track the culprit down?! You are the real joker!"

    Yin Xiong had broken into cold sweat. "I am really trying my best¡­but¡­that culprit seems to have the ability to wipe away the profound signature of the celestial sword away¡­I am actually looking at several more ways to retrieve the sword quietly¡­"

    The Evil Pce Master was now yelling angrily at him. "I want you to find out the identity of that joker immediately and I will rip him apart personally! Go now!"

    Yin Xiong hurriedly left the ce.

    After Yin Xiong had left the ce, the Sagess Alyssa was muttering. "Lately we seem to have a run of bad luck and none of our ns seem to be running smoothly."

    Then she said weakly, "My lord, maybe the culprit is Ji Yuan."

    The Cultivation Pce Master stared coldly at her, "Exin!"

    The Sagess Alyssa said with an awkward look. "I had lured him to that ce thinking if I were not able to kill him directly then I could at the very least lured him into the Sleeping Dragon Immortal Array."

    "And you are telling me now?!" The Evil Cultivation Master mmed his fist angrily on his throne seat.

    The Sagess Alyssa trembled and fell upon her knees. "My lord, at that time I did not link this with Ji Yuan and the Dragon Cave. This is only a backup n that I had in mind. I had thought that he might be killed by the falling boulders and might even have fallen into the bottomless abyss. But dayster, I had learnt that he had seeded in allying the five major unorthodox ns together. So I thought that he had a lucky escape and did not link the two matter together."

    The Evil Pce Master was trembling with rage now but after a while, he was suddenly saying coldly. "I have suddenly remembered an old legend of our race¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Lu Qingyun was now saying to everyone. "There is an old creation myth that is recorded in the Horizon of the Heavens. It is said that the Great Beyond Spirit is the creation goddess of all life in the original Gods Realm and also the one that has created the Deste Immortals. To the Deste Immortals, she is also their great mother¡­"

    "Before the Great Beyond Spirit departed from the Gods Realm, she had dropped down apassionate tear which is called the True Goddess'' Tear to give a ray of hope to the oppressed. Although no one has ever seen what the True Goddess'' Tear looks like but there is a legend that whoever can obtain it will be able to fulfill their wishes."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "I didn''t know that even the immortals believe in such ame story. This look like the wish fulfillment of azy cultivator. Haha."

    All of a sudden he noticed that no one wasughing along with him and they were all looking at Lu Qingyun with interest and were waiting for him to continue with his story.

    It was because such information about the Immortals were all valuable information that may aid them to understand the unknown world of the immortals and may even be helpful for them to advance in their cultivation understandings.

    Therefore they were all paying close attention.<sub> </sub>

    So Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders with a soft chuckle. "Haha. Please continue¡­"

    Lu Qingyun smiled. "There is a legend that the Ancient Fortress and the Ster Sanctuary havee into existence because of the True Goddess'' Tear. In case you may not know, these two monument cities are two of the greatest profound monuments in existence."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I think we are getting a little too far-sketched here. I thought that you are telling us what Xiang Li is and you are telling me some legends that does not even tell us any clue about Xiang Li¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had suddenly interrupted with a look in Lu Qingyun''s direction. "Are you are saying that Xiang Li is the True Goddess'' Tear?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "Does Xiang Li look like a watery tear at all? If she is a tear then this Great Beyond Spirit must really be a hell of a gigantic goddess¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped aloud as she interrupted, "Now this makes sense. If Xiang Li isn''t the True Goddess'' Tear then how did Saintess Yuluo managed to hold onto her life? You must know that this is beyond the profound properties of the crystal coffin."

    Ji Yuan had a look of disbelief as he said sarcastically. "Then this True Goddess'' Tear is a little too weak. She can''t even revive my Yuxian."

    Saintess Yuluo smiled weakly as she held onto Ji Yuan tightly,forted by his love for her.

    "I bet it must be Xiang Li that is helping you inside the Dream Trial as well." Bai Qianfeng quietly said. "Then can you exin how did your half-step celestial sword be an immortal sword? Even if you can find ten celestial swords to refine it into an immortal sword, there is no promise that it will seed. Can you exin the immortal sword in your hands? And how did you manage to obtain your sword spirit? If this isn''t a miracle then what I really don''t know how to exin it anymore."

    Ji Yuan replied with a straight face. "That is because I''m a genius."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I have also been praying for my Big Brother to have the strength to ovee the bad and ugly monster too!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Right. I remember this. Xiang Li, at least you''re not so useless after all. Your prayers actually work¡­"

    All of a sudden he was stammering as he looked at Xiang Li weirdly and he seemed to have connected the dots that the moment that he had gained his sword spirit and immortal sword, Xiang Li had also be younger at the same time too.

    And he had also remembered that Xiang Li was also with him when Saintess Yuluo had died and she had seen his grievous look and had tried tofort him.

    He was suddenly gulping all of a sudden as he stared at Xiang Li. "Surely not, am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly. "I have never heard of a sentient spirit entity that can materialize with a physical form but Xiang Li seems to have that ability to do so."

    "That is because I have formed my soul core." Ji Yuan saw that everyone was now looking at Xiang Li with great curiosity now and no one was paying him any attention at all.

    All of a sudden, heughed it off. "If Xiang Li is the True Goddess'' Tear then won''t I be the most OP cultivator in the entire Celestial Realm? I can make unlimited wishes then. Haha."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly. "The True Goddess'' Tear can only be found by a person with a pure heart and the wish can only be fulfilled only once before it disappear."

    Ji Yuan stammered, "Xiang Li will disappear?!"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded quietly. "Isn''t she younger than before now? It means that her profound power is slowly diminishing."

    Ji Yuanughed it off, "It is only a legend. Xiang Li isn''t going to disappear and I really don''t see her granting any wishes."

    Bai Qianfeng took a subtle look at Lu Qingyun before saying. "In the past when the Great God Pangu had obtained the Ster Sanctuary, he had be the first immortal ever to reach the Tenth Realm Cultivation Level. This enables him to defeat the other great deste immortals because we are all not in his league. With the power of the Ster Sanctuary, he has split the Gods Realm into the Three Known Realms and had even cast out the Ancient Fortress to the Deste Realm."

    With a mncholy look, she looked at Xiang Li. "Without the intervention of the True Goddess'' Tear, the deste immortals would still the masters of the Gods Realm today."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Xiang Li is Xiang Li. She isn''t what you have said. Moreover, you have said that this is a legend and no one has ever seen the True Goddess'' Tear before. Am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "True but this is the only exnation that I can think of¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "I was almost fooled by this legend. Assuming that this legend is true then the True Goddess'' Tear can only grant only one wish but look here, isn''t Xiang Li still around? So this really isn''t what all of you think. The only exnation is that I am a genius and everyone has the bad habit of overlooking a genius. Haha."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly. "Maybe¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to Saintess Fang Zhenfei to ask, "Jiajia, you are the smartest here. What do you think?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled weakly when she noticed that everyone was now looking at her now for an answer before she muttered. "Don''t ask me. I have no answers too. Maybe he is really a genius¡­"

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed. "Hear, hear!"

    "¡­and that is his wish. Maybe it didn''t work so well and so Xiang Li is still around." Saintess Fang Zhenfei chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Jiajia, you¡­"He had almost forgotten that Jiajia had the sharpest tongue.

    Lu Qingyun said, "Even if it isn''t the truth but our Brother Ji Yuan here is quite a shown off today. He may be the target of some unwanted attention that may suspect that he has some formidable profound treasures. So he ought to be careful."

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin as he looked at Xiang Li quietly before he whispered to her in his soul sea. "I am such a hero today and may attract unwanted attention from the many female cultivators that are around. Brother Lu is right. I ought to be careful."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "That is right. I will have a headache too if there are too many of them and I don''t know who to choose."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. Now you know too many choices are actually not a good choice now. But I am really happy today. Yuxian has finally returned to my arms."

    Xiang Li nodded delightfully. "As long as Big Brother is happy, Xiang Li is also happy too!"

    Then she asked. "Big Brother, do you think that I may be the True Goddess'' Tear?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course not. Only I know that you are useless. You just continue to give me your spiritual support as my best friend and I will be happy enough. Haha."

    Xiang Li giggled. "Right! I am the most useless spirit entity!"

    "I already know that since day one. Haha."

    "So when are we going to bang, bang again?"

    "We are going to bang Yuxian when she is well. Jiajia of course will be our number one target follow by her sister Xisi. Then Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue¡­"

    When everyone saw that Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin, they had all thought that he was seriously heeding Lu Qingyun''s advice and was pondering on how to keep a low profile. But unknown to them, he was actually chatting casually with Xiang Li, totally unconcerned.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly said to Xiang Li in a solemn tone, "Xiang Li, remember that you are my best friend and not a tool. You have already done more than what is enough for me and I am already more than touched by you. Thank you for your immortal sword and your sword spirit. I won''t let anyone use you as a tool."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan had denied that Xiang Li was the True Goddess'' Tear in front of everyone even though it may appear to everyone that he looked none the wiser. But he was actually hiding his most innermost thoughts from everyone.

    It did not matter to him if he looked foolish with his feeble protest in front of everyone. He had driven a point and that was Xiang Li was not his tool but apanion. And he was pretending to be too dense to realize anything.

 Chapter 189 Ji Yuan New Troubles (1)

    After Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing had left, Saintess Fang Zhenfei, Shui Xisi, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue had left together as well.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had left Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan with Ji Yuan for now because she felt that they shouldpany him until he had entered the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    When Fang Zhenfei and Shui Xisi were outside the tents of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, she lit a soft chuckle to her sister. "Sisi, so what do you think?"

    Shui Xisiughed. "I think Ji Yuan is bing more and more interesting!"

    Fang Zhenfei took a look at her before smiling awkwardly, "I''m not asking you about how interesting Ji Yuan is bing but your views on the True Goddess'' Tear."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "Does it matter? We can''t use the True Goddess'' Tear anyway. Feifei, are you thinking that this legend may be true after all?"

    "I don''t know but we can ask our mother consort about this." Fang Zhenfei smiled.

    "Then I''m afraid that my sister will be one million high grade spirit stones poorer for sending a transmission to her." Shui Xisi giggled.

    "Not me. You will be paying for this transmission." Fang Zhenfei chuckled as she took a firm look at her sister.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "No way!" Shui Xisi. "I am quite poor recently and I have so many prot¨¦g¨¦s now. This is one million high grade spirit stones and not ten thousand high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Fang Zhenfei interrupted with a soft chuckle. "It is time for you to show our mother consort that her good-for-nothing younger daughter Sisi is doing something for the Celestial Realm and not wasting her time in ying around. This is your chance to prove your worthiness."

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes with a resigned look. "Feifei, you really want me to fork out the one million high grade spirit stones, do you?"

    "Then Sisi, do you still want to be with Ji Yuan." Fang Zhenfei chuckled.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She rolled her eyes before giggling. "Actually I am most willing to help Feifei. We are really the closest sisters¡­"

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were giggling behind them as they listened on to their conversations.

    -

    Inside the tent, Ji Yuan was still chatting jovially with Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Bai Qianfeng and Saintess Yuluo.

    As Saintess Yuluo was still looking pale, she did not say much but had listened to Ji Yuan as he told her what had happened to him since they hadst met.

    He had also told her that their son Jian Menghao had taken the decision to acknowledge him as his father and had changed his name to Ji Hao and he was also followed by his new girlfriend Jin Yuyun.

    "I''m so d that he has taken the initiative to be independent now. I have always been worrying about him." Saintess Yuluo was greatlyforted.

    At the same time, she was really quite astonished by his ounts but she got the most astonishments from Ling Feiyue and Little Princess.

    Ling Feiyueughed as she said to Saintess Yuluo. "Saintess Yuluo, do you me me for bringing Ji Yuan to the dark side? Because of me, he has be an unorthodox cultivator now. If you stay with him, you will be branded an unorthodox cultivator too."

    Saintess Yuluo smiled as she held onto Xue Qianxue''s hand. "If Sister Qianxue can also be an unorthodox cultivator, so can I."

    Then she held onto Little Princess'' hand, "Your past doesn''t matter."

    "Because of me, everyone may be branded a heretic cultivator as well." Little Princess heaved mncholy. "Is it worth it to be branded a heretic cultivator and a public enemy because of me?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t worry. I will shoulder it all. Remember that I am known as Yuan Ji back in the Emperor Hall Sect. Worsee to worse, you can all assume a pseudo name ande to my Emperor Hall Sect. You will be safe there. Haha."

    Shangguan Yan immediately said. "My lord. Do you remember Elder Sui?"

    "Elder Sui? I know quite a lot of Elder Sui. Haha. Which one?" Ji Yuanughed.

    "Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect." Shangguan Yan exined.

    "Oh him. What about him?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    "I saw him snooping around earlier. He is probably looking for some information to sell and he seems to be looking in your direction." Shangguan Yan smiled weakly.

    "Haha. Finally I am worth some information now that I am even attracting attention from the Mystic Eye Sect. Well, nothing wrong with that right?" Ji Yuan smiled proudly. "I have some renown finally. Haha."

    Shangguan Yan continued to smile weakly. "Well, he knows you as Yuan Ji the Pce Master of the Emperor Hall Sect and now you are Ji Yuan here¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly all of a sudden. It was as though he had suddenly returned down to the ground level as he interrupted awkwardly. "You mean my cover is blown¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi added weakly, "And the group that was with Li Ye and Guo Taiming also know that you are Yuan Ji. But after you have killed the metamorph monster, everyone knows that you are Ji Yuan as well as Yuan Ji. Everyone is watching you from the cliffs above just now, you know."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "That mean I can''t go back to the Emperor Hall Sect or the Orthodox Sword Sect anymore because everyone knows that I am the notorious Ji Yuan."

    Xiang Li who was also sitting with the other maidens were giggling. "Big Brother, hooray you are now the number one public enemy now without a question!"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "Xiang Li, this isn''t something worth bragging about. This means that we are now in trouble. We are homeless now."

    Xiang Li suddenly to be shocked before she giggled. "That means that we can now wander all over the ce now, right? It means we can visit more fun ces, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "When did you suddenly be so smart..."

    Ling Feiyueughed jovially. "Not entirely homeless. You can still take refuge in my Spirit Blue Moon Sect and also all of you are wee as well."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly. "Guess we have no other choices. My Sister Yan''Er and I will soon be known as the consorts of the Sword Demon Ji Yuan and we will be forced to leave the Five Heavens Peaks by the orthodox cultivators."

    Shangguan Yan sighed softly. "I really don''t want to leave the Five Heavens Peaks. It has been my home for a long time."<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she said gently to them. "Don''t worry. After you have a chance to cultivate at my ce, you won''t miss the Five Heavens Peaks anymore. It is just a bad ce for cultivation. I wonder how Ji Yuan manage to cultivate into a saint in that ce."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi giggled. "My master is actually the first saint in thousands of years to be a saint at the Five Heavens Peaks."

    Xue Qianxueughed, "I bet that he had identally eaten something weird while he was sound asleep and hence he was able to breakthrough to the seventh realm level."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yes, I totally agree with you!" Little Princess chuckled. "Or maybe he dropped into a dung pit while he was drunk. I had heard that some dungs actually have some profound properties to aid the cultivator. But I wouldn''t touch it no matter what but I not sure about Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue giggled jovially. "Look at us. After staying with Ji Yuan for quite some time, we have all picked up his unruly jokes."

    Ji Yuan: ....

    I have never taught you this joke...

    Saintess Yuluo wasughing gently. "I can see why Ji Yuan likes all of you. You are all such interesting maidens."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was soon frowning. He was supposed to brag in front of Saintess Yuluo to demonstrate his alpha male prowess but instead he had suddenly be aughing stock. This was not supposed to be happening at all¡­

    Just as he was about to protest, Ling Tianshui had suddenly entered the tent and she looked a little panicky. "Ji Yuan, you gotpany. A lot ofpany."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ling Tianshui smiled awkwardly, "You''ve bettere to take a look. And bring Saintess Yuluo along too as well. It is because¡­"

    She turned to look at Saintess Yuluo. "Your father the Great Saint Jian Kang is also here."

    Ling Feiyue was startled. "I''ll go and take a look too."

    Ling Tianshui nodded, "Yes, you should. You''re our sect leader after all."

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she looked at Ji Yuan. "I can''t be too sure now. Ji Yuan, I am only going out to take a look and I am not going to clean your mess, alright?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "My dearest Feiyue, if you do not help me, who will help me?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled. "Can''t you see that I am already helping you with my presence? At least they won''t dare to touch you if I am around you. But I can''t be sure if you are out of this camp. After all, I didn''t ask you to beat up Saint Jian Lindong and to ask you to seduce Saintess Yuluo, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "You sound like I am reaping the harvest of my own bad fruits."

    "I am." Ling Feiyue giggled.

    "Thank you. You are indeed my ''good'' consort." Ji Yuan sarcastically praised her.

    Ling Tianshui interrupted. "Stop joking around and follow me. It isn''t just one Great Saint Jian Kang only but thousands of them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he looked at everyone. "Stop looking at me like this. I really didn''t do anything except for an honorable fight with Jian Lindong. That is an honor duel and I have thousands of witnesses."

    Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly without looking up. "Maybe they didn''te because of your honor duel with Jian Lindong but because you had kissed Saintess Yuluo so intimately in the presence of thousands of onlookers."

    All of a sudden Saintess Yuluo was flushing and even Ji Yuan felt like digging a hole in the ground.

    When Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and even Ling Tianshui had heard Bai Qianfeng, they were so startled that they all were gasping aloud. "Ji Yuan, what have you done?!"

    Ling Feiyue said with great exasperation. "I''m definitely not going to help you to rify things. You have thousands of witnesses this time for your bad deed."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan quietly lifted the tent entrance cover and he saw tens of thousands of cultivators were all trying to storm the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    He turned to look weakly at everyone. "I have one good news and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

    Ling Feiyue threw Ji Yuan a punch on his chest, "Hmph! You still have the time to joke."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Well, the good news first followed by the bad. It isn''t just a couple of thousands but tens of thousands."

    Everyone: ¡­

    "Anyone can donate me some profound recovery pills? Erm¡­because I have already finished mine. Qianfeng, I remember that you have some, am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng replied sheepishly. "I had long finished mine too."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply. "Oh well, wish me good luck then."

 Chapter 190 Ji Yuan New Troubles (2)

    Ji Yuan was soon at the entrance of the camp with Saintess Yuluo, Ling Feiyue and Ling Tianshui.

    As soon as Ji Yuan saw the tens of cultivators that were all trying to gatecrash into the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, he really did not know whether tough or cry.

    Although the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect were many but they only numbered a couple of hundreds and could hardly hold back the tens of thousands of cultivators that were all trying to step into the camp.

    As he stepped out of the tent, he suddenly had an idea why there were so many haters that were now after his blood. It was not because of Saintess Yuluo but Shui Xisi!

    Shui Xisi had pretended to be Envoy Shui Sisi of the Water Melody Pce andtely she had been flirting around and attracting the attention of all the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    But why were they after his blood?

    Ji Yuan had immediately concluded two logical deductions that were caused by Shui Xisi and several more deductions from the others.

    One: She had called out to him in public in front of so many cultivators and her actions hadpletely screwed him up.

    Two: She was seen leaving the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and this infuriated all her admirers.

    Plus he had also antagonized all the orthodox cultivators because he had beaten up Saint Jian Lindong and kissed Saintess Yuluo in public.

    And he was seen ''rescuing'' Saintess Fang Zhenfei, the most mysterious saintess in the Celestial Deste Fraternity and an object of admiration from many as well.

    He sighed softly; Jiajia is probably seen leaving my camp as well. Today you are truly screwed...not to mention that they know that you are Yuan Ji as well and have taken Fairy Ye Chengxi as your official consort.

    If a man could take one of the four great celestial beauties as his consort, naturally he would be a public enemy. Moreover he had taken three of them; Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi smiled weakly when he saw Ji Yuan, "Finally, you havee. I have a hard time keeping them all out. Luckily, they are more interested in fighting against each other to gain entry or I can''t promise you that I can keep them all out at the same time."

    Ji Yuan saw that there were also many unorthodox cultivators among the unruly crowd, including many that he happened to know.

    "Ji Yuan, you are really the number one public enemy now." He muttered.

    Xiang Li looked a little panicky as she saw the tens of thousands of cultivators that had gathered, "Big Brother, what shall we do now? I am afraid..."

    Ji Yuan sighed to her in his soul sea. "This time, we are truly over."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Shouldn''t we consolidate the experiences so that we won''t make the same mistakes again? Then we can be stronger and wiser the next time?"

    Ji Yuan looked nkly at Xiang Li, "Yea. It is better to be single and never touch a woman again. They are nothing but a ma for troubles."

    "Noooo! Big Brother, I don''t agree! I love them all!" Xiang Li protested unhappily.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Your women have just condemned us to our current dilemma."

    "Surely you have a way out of this?" Xiang Li panicky asked.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Maybe Tianshui can help us. After all, she seems wiser than most."

    So he turned to smile weakly at Ling Tianshui. "I really can''t remember offending the unorthodox cultivators as well. Can you help me?"

    He gave a subtle hint to Ling Tianshui with his eyes. Aren''t we lovers? Can you help me? On ount of our secret rtionship?

    But Ling Tianshui smiled as she caught hold of Ling Feiyue, "Niece. Let him settle this on his own. After all, he is going to be your future Dark Lord. This will be a test of his leadership ability."

    Much to Ji Yuan''s disbelief, she hadpletely ignored him!

    Aren''t we secret lovers...

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "I can''t leave him alone. I was only teasing him earlier. As his consort, I ought to help him¡­"

    But Ling Tianshui had pulled her away and she was whispering something in Ling Feiyue''s ears which caused her to chuckle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared silently at Ling Tianshui and Ling Feiyue; howe they still have the mood tough at me?! Can you see that I am erm...in deep shit?

    Before Ji Yuan could ponder further, there was a great shout as a golden saint gatecrashed unruly into the camp as he shouted angrily. "Who dares to stop me? Do you know who I am?! I am Shen Qin, the Young Master of the Astonishing Sword Manor and the current acting leader of the Astonishing Sword Manor!"

    And his followers were all shouting loudly. "How dare you stop the leader of a fellow major unorthodox n? We are your allies¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned because he had recognized Shen Qin. Why is he here? Aren''t we allies already or is he unhappy with my ''arrangement''?

    Shen Qin had rushed forward to greet Ji Yuan despite several golden celestial trying to hold him back. "Big Brother Ji Yuan! Look at your men! They just won''t let me in!"

    Ji Yuan waved his hand to the cultivators that were trying to hold him back to allow him in as he said. "It is alright¡­I know him."

    "Brother Shen Qin, why are you here?" Ji Yuan frowned. "And why are you bringing so many of your men here too as well. And when did I be your Big Brother?" He had suddenly noticed that Shen Qin was suddenly addressing him as a big brother.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, please forgive me for not visiting you sooner. I am here to give you a helping help against the cultivators that are bothering you naturally¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. I think you are the one that is bothering me instead¡­

    But before he could evenplete his thoughts, he was interrupted by several more powerful great saints and their equally formidable groups. "Who dares to stop us? Do you know who we are?"

    Ji Yuan took a peek and saw that they were from the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan!" There were three great saints that had gatecrashed into their camp as well and Ji Yuan had recognized them to be Great Saint Tian Shan, Great Saint You Tianlong and Great Saint Gu Gui.

    They too were shouting to everyone. "Make way for us! Do you know who we are? We are Ji Yuan''s brothers! Therefore we have the right to enter the camp!"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning even more and he was looking perplexed; these three old goats will actually call me big brother?!

    Great Saint You Tianlongughed as he stormed his way straight in front of Ji Yuan. After all, he was a great saint and it was difficult to stop him if he really wish to gatecrash. When he saw Ji Yuan, he had immediately decided to gatecrash into the camp. After all, he was not going to let Acting Sect Leader Shen Qin of the Astonishing Sword Manor gaining an advantage over to him!

    But when he had gatecrashed, he was quickly followed by Great Saint Tian Shan and Great Saint Gu Gui who were all thinking the same as him.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan! We are here to offer you our strength!"

    Great Saint Tian Shan smiled. "You''re in luck. My sect leader will also like to meet you and she is a real beauty¡­"

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, listen to me. My sect master will like to meet you as well and he will like to be your sworn brother! Isn''t this a worthy news for you? You must thank me for this!" Great Saint Tian Shan quickly interrupted.

    "Who dares to stop me?! Do you know who I am?" Great Saint Jian Kang was shouting as he led his group of cultivators that numbered several hundreds.

    "Hey! This is the camp of the unorthodox cultivators and not a camp of the orthodox cultivators!" Many of the unorthodox cultivators were jeering and shouting at the same time. These unorthodox cultivators were actually not from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan took a look at Saintess Yuluo as he whispered. "Wish me good luck with your father¡­"

    He was now brainstorming a hundredme reasons and excuses to exin his public act with Saintess Yuluo.

    It was because if he did not do so immediately, he would be a dead man soon; there is one sacredw of the Deste Celestial Fraternity that can kill him and that is, if a person vites the daughter of a family during an armistice then the whole family can ignore the armistice to seek redress for their daughter.

    And he had broken exactly that by holding and kissing Saintess Yuluo right in front of thousands of cultivators.

    Saintess Yuluo held his hands tightly as she said gently. "My lord Ji Yuan, I will exin to my father. You will note to harm¡­"

    Great Saint Jian Kang was shouting to all the cultivators that were blocking his way, "All of you, out of my way!"

    Behind him was also Jian Lindong and hundreds of prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor.

    Ji Yuan saw that Jian Lindong''s jaws were growing new teeth already but he was looking quite ugly because of the beating that he had received from Ji Yuan earlier.

    He gulped when he thought of his beautiful face beaten up like a pulp like Jian Lindong.

    Talk about bad karma and I will be receiving the same ugly treatment as Jian Lindong¡­

    Great Saint Jian Kang moved his way through amidst the heavy crowd that was surrounding Ji Yuan as he shouted. "Do you know who I am? I am the leader of one of the seven major orthodox ns. How dare you be so disrespectful to me? Do you know that Ji Yuan is my son-inw? How dare you stop me!?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. Son-inw?

    As soon as Great Saint Jian Kang had pushed his way through to Ji Yuan, he wasughing heartily and saying. "How are you Ji Yuan? Can''t you recognize your father-inw?"

    Saintess Yuluo was gasping with shock, "Father, you are not here to separate us?"

    Great Saint Jian Kangughed heartily as he gave Ji Yuan a hearty pat on his shoulder. "Nonsense! I will never do something like this."

    Ji Yuan, Saintess Yuluo: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was in total disbelief as he raised his fingers to point at Jian Lindong, "But I beat up your son¡­"

    "He deserves to be taught a lesson by his brother-inw. Moreover it is an only friendly spar." Great Saint Jian Kangughed.

    "But I have beaten him up really badly." Ji Yuan pointed out.

    "Big Brother Ji Yuan, you really love to joke." Jian Lindong was smiling now. Even though he was smiling but he looked a little ugly because Ji Yuan had broken some of his teeth.

    "You are only teaching your little brother here how to fight. Moreover, I am a saint. This is only a light injury without any consequences!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and said. "Erm, but I am an outcast of the orthodox cultivators¡­"

    Great Saint Jian Kang immediately proimed loudly, "Whoever says you are an outcast of the orthodox cultivators will be an enemy of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "But I am sheltering Little Princess so I may be branded a heretic too¡­"

    Many of the cultivators, including Great Saint Jian Kang were shouting. "Oh no, you are not. We can all see that you are correcting her from the errors and you are being absolutely righteous to do so. We respect you for this¡­" All sorts of excuses and exnations from both the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators flew in front of Ji Yuan immediately.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had thought of something funny and he grinned. "But I have also offended the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and won''t be able to live for long."

    "Don''t worry we will help you in your fight against the Hundred Flower Divine Pce! We will join hands with you in your fight against the Hundred Flower Divine Pce¡­"

    "Poor Jiajia¡­" Ji Yuan began to pray for her silently.

    But before Ji Yuan could say anything further, more and more cultivators had rushed forward and everyone was talking loudly at the same time.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have admired you for a long time¡­"

    "Great Hero Ji Yuan, we want to meet you for a long time¡­"

    "Can we have your portrait?"

    "You are so dashing and handsome¡­"

    "Out of my way! I am Ji Yuan''s patriarch uncle!" Mo Bei was swinging his hand toward Ji Yuan as he shouted from behind the rushing crowd. "How dare all of you stand in the way of a great saint!"

    Ji Yuan could also see Guo Taiming waving frantically at him from outside the camp and he was trying to squeeze his way through but there were simply too many groups. "Ji Yuan is my big brother! I''m here to see him!"

    Finally Ji Yuan stared nkly at the thousands of cultivators that were all trying to talk to him at the same time. "Ahem! Can someone tells me what is going on here?!"

    "You are the Great Hero Ji Yuan!"

    "You save us from the epic eighth deste monster¡­"

    "You are the number one hero¡­"

    "You are the defender of justice..."

    All sorts of answers flew in front of Ji Yuan again¡­

    Ji Yuan wasughing heartily, "Haha¡­we are all friends¡­." But silently he was cursing them; you are all my ass-lickers¡­and there are thousands of you here. My ass isn''t safe now¡­

    Just a little further away from Ji Yuan;

    Ling Tianshui shrugged her shoulders as she whispered to Ling Feiyue, "Your future lord is already so popr now. In the future, you ought to be careful."

    Ling Feiyue was stunned by what she saw and was hearing. "I have thought that Great Saint Jian Kang is here to fight him. My dear aunt, you really had me fooled earlier!"

    Ling Tianshui chuckled softly. "It is only a small tease. These cultivators are actually quite respectful earlier and are all requesting to see Ji Yuan. Did you see that when he has arrived at the scene, they are all rushing forward to greet him. I have anticipating something like this. That is why I have asked you to stay here or else you will be mobbed as well."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "I almost got a heart attack earlier."

    Ling Tianshui chuckled. "That is why I did warn you only Ji Yuan can settle this."

    Ling Feiyue was quietly looking with an idtry look at Ji Yuan, "Xiang Li can''t be wrong. She is the True Goddess'' Tear. We have three previous reincarnations together and this is our fourth now¡­we will be happy in this life¡­"

 Chapter 191 How To Be An OP Cultivator!

    Ji Yuan was now forced to address the thousands of cultivators that had gathered in front of him. This was the very first time that he was invited to talk to such arge assembly and he was the solo speaker.

    He returned an awkward smile before heughed. "Do you all know why I am so awesome?"

    Immediately there were many strong responses. "We don''t know! Please share with us your heavenly secrets! Please enlighten us with your Great Dao!"

    There were many leaders of the hundreds of celestial ns that were presented now and they were from all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity. This was the very first time that the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators were all packing so closely without any animosity.

    But of course, the number of cultivators that were around the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth was numerous and not everyone was convinced by Ji Yuan. Fully half of the cultivators which numbered a hundred thousand did not attend this congregation and they were led by the Second Young Master Zhan Zhong of the Great Inevitable Divine n and the Great Inevitable Divine n is the most powerful orthodox celestial in the orthodox fraternity.

    And if the Great Inevitable Divine n did not attend then her closest ally the Iron Righteous n was also inconspicuous absent.

    Also absent was the Mystic Profound Pavilion which Jin Yilong and his father the Great Saint Jin Tianzong had belonged to and the Burning Heavens Pavilion.

    Surprisingly, the Celestial Orthodox Sect was in the congregation too but they had kept a low profile.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and said solemnly. "That is because I have no beard!"

    This promation had suddenly stunned all the cultivators that were listening intently and many of them were shocked.

    Then they started to notice that many of the unorthodox cultivators were beardless¡­

    Many were now muttering. "Is this the real reason?"

    All the maidens that were close to Ji Yuan were all trying to keep a straight face lest they unwittingly exposed his story.

    Except for Saintess Yuluo who had no idea that Ji Yuan was trying to turn everyone into a beardless cultivator like him, she too had an equally startled expression like the rest of the cultivators.

    Ji Yuan continued as he looked at the thousands of cultivators, "I know that many of you are ashamed that you have lost your beards and pubic hairs. But it is time for me to tell all of you that it is nothing to be ashamed of!"

    There were many golden celestials that were secretly feeling extremely awkward and they had a secret that they did not want to tell the rest. Many of the bearded cultivators were actually donning a fake beard and they lived in daily fear that their secret would be discovered one day.

    As for the female golden celestials, they were ashamed that their future cultivation partner would discover that they had no pubic hair and many of them had purposely sworn a life of sexual abstinence to pursue the Great Dao.

    "I want to tell you that this is something that you ought to be proud of because this is actually heavens'' blessings that are upon you!" Ji Yuan raised his voice to say with great confident to everyone. "And I am the best example!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly to Xue Qianxue and the other maidens nearby. "He is now trying to turn his misfortunate into everyone''s misfortunate as well."

    All the maidens were all secretly giggling including Bai Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuan continued with a great conviction. "Have you ever wondered why I can rise up to be a dragon despite the fact that I have no cultivation resources and powerful profound arts? That is because I am fortunate enough to have lost my beautiful beard during my golden bodily transformation!"

    An old cultivator could not resist asking. "What if you are the exception? There are also many cultivators that have lost their beards but they seem to be so and so in their talent only."

    This was also the question that Patriarch Moon Elder Chen Yi had wanted to ask but he dared not ask lest it destroyed the paper thin rtionship that he had with Ji Yuan. He had wanted to scream at Ji Yuan, "Now I have lost my beard permanently because of your pill but I have yet to feel any increase in my cultivation strength!"

    Ji Yuan replied with a straight face. "Then let me ask you a question first. Do they have a beautiful beard as I do before they lost their beards then? As all of you know, I have the undisputed honor to have the most beautiful beard in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity and therefore when I had lost my beard, my potential is also the highest!"

    When he had said that, many of the cultivators were all muttering. "Now this makes sense¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is known as the cultivator with the most beautiful beard¡­"

    "Therefore those of you who have beautiful beards need not worry. Once you have the lucky urrence to lose your beards, you will be doubly blessed by the heavens! But whether you can lose your luck depends on the blessings of the great dao. I am afraid that I cannot help you with that." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    A female cultivator giggled shyly, "This is for the men but what about the women? Are they the same? How do you determine beautiful¡­" She wanted to say beautiful pubic hair but she was too shy to say it loud.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Women are slightly different. All you need is to pay attention to your beautiful faces and grooming!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi muttered to the rest of the maidens and she was flushing lightly. "I can''t believe that he is once my old master. He is making me flushing with great embarrassment¡­"

    Shangguan Yan, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were actually looking quite flustered at the same time.

    A cultivator with a beautiful short beard mustered the courage to ask and he was Mo Bei, "It is not that I''m doubting you but do you have erm¡­any basis in this?"

    When everyone saw that it was Mo Bei, they were all paying close attention. It was because Mo Bei was a respected leader of the Mo n, a powerful influence in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Cultivators from all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity had to give the Mo n some face because of Mo Ming the Diviner.

    Ji Yuan immediately said. "Naturally I do have. Have you all ever wondered why only the celestials have nasal hairs but all the beasts, deste beasts and divine beasts do not have it?"

    Immediately everyone was muttering loudly to one another, "Really? Is it true?"

    "Come to think of this, I don''t ever see the livestock or the deste beasts having any hair in their noses¡­"

    "Omg, why didn''t I notice that?"

    "It seems that we are the only ones that have any nasal hairs¡­"

    "Even monkeys don''t have nose hairs¡­"

    "Yea, the deste beasts also do not have too¡­"

    "So what is the link?"

    Ji Yuan solemnly interrupted everyone. "Because of this major handicap in our noses, we have be theughing stock of nature and have such a terrible sense of smell. We even have to advance in our cultivation realm in order to better our divine sense or else we will only be ughtered by the deste beasts every time the wind blows against our favor and our scent got picked up."

    Suddenly many of the cultivators were muttering. "True, true. Howe I have never thought of it before?"

    "But once you have lost your pubic beards and hairs during the bodily transformation, you will also lose all your nasal hair and be one with the nature too. You will be one with the heavens and the earth!"

    Ji Yuanughed before he emphasized with a deep voice. "You will be an OP cultivator with a lot of potential! Of course, this will still depend on your cultivation talent and resources too. You can''t be azy cultivator and still hope to seed like me. I am really hardworking in my cultivation, you know."

    Chen Yi gasped silently. "Brother Ji Yuan, I have wronged you! You have given me such a valuable profound pill to help me to be beardless and yet I am trying to be a lowball rascal by using you. You are indeed a gentleman..."

    Ling Feiyue whispered to the other maidens. "I was almost convinced by him until he mentions the hardworking part¡­"

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly, "Yea. Me too¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were muttering. "Is it true? I don''t know¡­"

    Ji Yuan had now disyed his profound animus. "Do you have any great saints here? Please examine my profound aura. Even though I have no powerful defensive profound art but you can surely know that I have the signature of the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning in my profound aura."

    Immediately many of the great saints in the crowd were checking Ji Yuan''s profound aura with their divine sense and after some time, many of the great saints were gasping with shock. "It is true¡­it is true¡­he has really ovee the Nine-Stage Purple Lightning¡­he is really a monstrous genius¡­"

    Usually it was difficult to check a cultivator''s lightning tribtion because only great saints were able to do so and even then, it would take some time to read the profound aura. During this period, the targeted cultivator couldunch an attack as such an in-depth reading would cause the cultivator that was reading the aura to be vulnerable as it would require all their concentration.

    But because Ji Yuan had given them all the permission to read his profound aura, this was not considered an offensive act and at the same time, all the great saints were able to focus their divine sense to read Ji Yuan''s profound aura.

    "Purple Lightning Tribtion!" Great Saint Jian Kang was astonished. "This son-inw is really the son of heaven. I am so proud of him!"

    Jian Lindong wasughing too, "Haha. I am so lucky that he is my brother-inw."

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly to the other maidens. "Ji Yuan, he is always boasting about his lightning tribtion. Next, he will tell everyone about his celestial sword¡­ops¡­immortal sword now¡­"<sub> </sub>

    All the maidens were giggling softly.

    Although Ji Yuan could not hear them but he got an uneasy feeling that these maidens were all gossiping about him again.

    Then Ji Yuan took out his immortal sword andughed. "Look at my immortal sword and did you see how I have achieved perfect harmony with my divine sword? Can anyone of you do it?"

    There were muted silences from all the cultivators. It was because there was no one in the crowd that had a perfect divine harmony with their divine swords. It was not a feat that they had dared to dream of.

    In fact Ji Yuan could not be able to perfectly divine harmony with his sword if it was not for Xiang Li. It was because at that time Xiang Li had taken residence in his celestial sword. The reason why he was able to perfect divine harmony with his celestial sword was because Xiang Li and Ji Yuan were totally in sink with each other; they were each other bestpanion.

    It was something that no one could figure it out, not even Ji Yuan because there was no precedence.

    When Ji Yuan had showed them his immortal sword, many of the cultivators could not contain their excitement. It was because many of them were actually here in a hope to see with their eyes the profound power of an immortal sword.

    In the Celestial Realm, a celestial sword was so rare that celestial ns will fight over it. And Ji Yuan was now disying an immortal sword right in front of their eyes.

    Almost everyone was awed by the profound power and suffocating suppression of the immortal sword.

    Many of the cultivators were now shamelessly asking. "How did Great Hero obtain your immortal sword?"

    Naturally Ji Yuan himself was not able to exin it but he always had an answer. So heughed. "Firstly, you need to be as awesome as me first and secondly, you must be a genius like me too."

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens were all rolling their eyes; it was because he was pasting gold on his face. They know that other than a handsome look, he was not awesome or a genius.

    But to the thousands of cultivators, Ji Yuan was super awesome and he was the genius of the geniuses because he had an immortal sword. Moreover he got a super profound art that could kill an epic eighth rank metamorph monster.

    Therefore he was now the Great Hero Ji Yuan in their eyes.

    "What is the name of your immortal sword?" Many of the cultivators were asking.

    "Well¡­" Ji Yuan began to ponder for a while. This divine sword had actually started off as an earth-step divine sword and was christened Resonate Peak. It was given to him by Jiajia.

    But he decided to give this sword a super cool name now by answering. "Legadima is this divine sword''s name and it means Lightning!"

    When he had announced it, ps and excitements echoed from the thunderous crowd.

    Elder Sui from the Mystic Eye Sect quickly wrote down the name of Ji Yuan''s immortal sword while muttering. "It is precious information. I must write all these down as part of Ji Yuan''s legacies. So it is how an OP cultivator is made¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he kept his sword back into his spatial ring.

    All of a sudden several flying mounts began to descend upon the mountains and hadnded right in front of the tform that Ji Yuan was at.

    Xue Qianxue was gasping. "It is my Patriarch Great-Grandfather Diviner Mo Ming¡­"

    Indeed it was Diviner Mo Ming and several golden celestials from the Mo n were with him as well.

    "It is Diviner Mo Ming?!"

    Many of the cultivators were all gasping because they were quite startled to see Diviner Mo Ming. It was because Diviner Mo Ming had almost never left the Eon Firmament Mountains and it was really expensive just to see him for a prophecy.

    But now he had actually appeared here?

    Diviner Mo Ming was looking excitingly around as he looked around him while ignoring Ji Yuan, "Where is he? I have read the signs of the heavens and I saw that an immortal sword has been birthed in the Celestial Realm. Who is that cultivator with the immortal sword?! Hurry and tell me his name! Do you know that this cultivator with the immortal sword is going to be the future savior and hero of the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity?! Just a moment ago, I can even sense the profound signature of his celestial sword!"

    "Ahem. Erm¡­" Ji Yuan said. "Diviner Mo Ming¡­"

    Diviner Mo Ming frowned. "Not now.  I am not here to look for you or Qianxue. I am busy¡­"

    Ji Yuan took out his immortal sword again as he smiled weakly. "You''re looking for me?"

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    At this moment, Divine Mo Ming had suddenly noticed that many of the cultivators were all pointing their fingers at Ji Yuan to indicate that he was the one¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming stared at Ji Yuan with great disbelief as he whispered. "Howe it is you? With your impure soul, you are actually the future Great Hero and howe you are still alive after your duel?"

    Diviner Mo Ming actually did not know what had happened in the Deste Celestial Fraternity because he was in seclusion. When he had suddenly received a sign from the heavens, he had quickly exited his seclusion toward the direction of the omen that he had received.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Old man, why did you only appear now? Do you know how many brain cells that I have killed in order to cook up a story in front of the crowd?"

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    He is still trying to screw up his soul sea...

    Now that Diviner Mo Ming had appeared and had dered that Ji Yuan was the future Great hero, there were no longer any doubts now in everyone''s heart that Ji Yuan was indeed someone special.

    Many of the saints in the crowd were now panicking shouting. "Great Hero Ji Yuan, please share with us on how to be a stronger cultivator!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "If you all want to be as strong as me then you all have to be a beardless cultivators first or else you won''t have a chance to reach my level of achievements."

    Mo Ming: ...

    What the heck is he talking about?!

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Shui Qingqing was looking with great idtry at Ji Yuan; she had sneaked out of the camp of the Water Melody Pce just to take a secret look at him from afar¡­

    "I have always known that you are a great hero¡­finally I can convince my Matriarch Pce Mistress that you are not a bad guy. Hopefully, she will allow us to be together¡­"

    Just as she was about to take a closer look at Ji Yuan, two veiled maidens had intercepted her and one of them said quietly to her. "Child, pleasee with me. I have something very important to tell you."

    Shui Qingqing was startled by them and just as she was about to refuse them, the veiled maiden put out a pendant to show her. "Do you want to know your background?"

    Shui Qingqing was startled when she saw the pendant. "I do..."

    Nearby Xue Qianxue was whispering to the other maidens. "Did you hear my Patriarch Great Grandfather Diviner Mo Ming? Ji Yuan is actually a great hero. What if this is true? After all, Ji Yuan has only be stronger after he has be beardless¡­"

    Little Princess nodded, "I am beginning to think that Ji Yuan is actually right. What am I thinking?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Why don''t we all try to be white tigers and have a try?"

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng muttered silently and she was flushing shyly, "They are all being brainwashed by Ji Yuan¡­just like I was brainwashed by him in the Dream Trial¡­"

 Chapter 192 Diviner Mo Mingâ€™s Request

    Ji Yuan was now being mobbed by hundreds of female cultivators as they were all eager to talk to him.

    Many of the female cultivators that were now mobbing him were actually his fans for a long time when he had gained renown as the Great Poet Ji Yuan. But of course, many of them were also his fans because of his beautiful looks.

    There were also many female cultivators that had just recently be his fan because he had helped them to put down the heavy stone that were in their hearts; they were white tigers and if not for Ji Yuan, they would still be aughing stock. To them, Ji Yuan was their savior and their great hero.

    There were also many that were prevented from marrying their beardless cultivation partners because their celestial n and family n had venomously protested against it but things would now change because of Ji Yuan.

    Even Great Saint Jian Kang, the powerful sect leader of the Profound Heaven Sword Heaven had given his blessings to him to his daughter the Saintess Yuluo to a beardless Ji Yuan.

    If Great Saint Jian Kang, a well-known stubborn traditionalist would approve of a beardless Ji Yuan to be his son-inw then there was nothing to stop the floodgate from being opened now.

    But of course, Great Saint Jian Kang was actually thinking of consolidating his position in the eyes of the seven major orthodox ns and Ji Yuan was the key; he had an immortal sword and because of this, he could easilymand great respect. Moreover Ji Yuan was not a saint but a great saint now and he had killed an unstoppable epic eighth rank metamorph monster right in front of the thousands of cultivators.

    Therefore Ji Yuan was now a hero in the eyes of many of the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators who were helpless against the epic eighth rank metamorph monster.

    Normally if a powerless cultivator had a celestial sword or an immortal sword, he would be a target of the greedy cultivators that would use any means to obtain his divine sword. But it was impossible to steal it from Ji Yuan. He was now the Dark Lord Ji Yuan, the future lord of Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were both great saintesses and they had astonished all the orthodox cultivators when they had fought each other during the new sacred maiden ceremony at the Celestial Orthodox Sect. Therefore everyone knows that it was better not to mess up with them.

    Moreover Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue had even dared to dere defy six of the major orthodox ns despite the fact she was risking the Spirit Blue Moon Sect in her bid to shelter Ji Yuan and Little Princess. And somehow she had even managed to persuade the other four major unorthodox ns to side with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. She was really not easy to deal with even by the standard of the major orthodox n!

    But of course, the six major orthodox ns did not know that it was Ji Yuan who had helped the Spirit Blue Moon Sect to form such a formidable coalition and this caused the five major orthodox ns to drop their attack ns except for one and that was the Profound Heaven Sword Heaven.

    It was because Great Saint Jian Kang could not forgive himself or Ji Yuan for causing the death of his beloved daughter Jian Yuluo. Saintess Yuluo was his pride because she was also known as Sword Saintess Yuluo and she had helped to push up the ranking of the sword arts of the Profound Heaven Sword Heaven.

    But when he saw that Saintess Yuluo was still alive and the good-for-nothing Ji Yuan had turned up to be so formidable, he hadpletely changed his attitude toward him.

    Ji Yuan naturally know that Great Saint Jian Kang had framed him up and had caused him to be a public enemy for no reason. And Great Saint Jian Kang knows it too. But the two of them hade to a quiet understanding after probing each other''s attitude; they would pretend that nothing had happened in the past.

    This stunned Saintess Yuluo when she first saw her father''s and Ji Yuan''s attitude when they had finally met again. She had actually expected that the two of them woulde to blows. But Ji Yuan was pretending that nothing had happened in the past and she was greatly relieved.

    Ji Yuan had thought; since you are willing to close your eyes when I had beaten up your son and I am trying to help my Yuluo to remove the dark blemish in her soul sea, I''m totally fine with closing my eyes to what had happened. Moreover my son Ji Hao had lived in the protection of the Profound Heaven Sword Heaven for a long time as well.

    Back to Ji Yuan''s current situation;

    "Great Hero Ji Yuan, do you know that you have been my idol for a long time¡­"

    "I still have your bearded portrait with me¡­"

    "You look even more beautiful than when you are a bearded cultivator¡­"

    "Do you have the intention to take in more lovers, concubines or consorts?"

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, enjoying the adtions that he had not felt for a long time ever since he had lost his beard.

    Even Xiang Li wasughing joyfully in his soul sea and she enjoyed the beautiful view of the hundreds of maidens that were all around Ji Yuan. "Big Brother, you are going to bang them all?"

    Ji Yuan immediately answered with a displeasure tone. "NO!"

    "Why?"

    "Because Xiang Li, they are nothing but troubles."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Why?"

    Ji Yuan sighed. "Can you imagine how much trouble we are going to face if they ask you who do you love the most? This will be a most tricky question!"

    Xiang Li giggled. "I can reply I love them all equally!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Do you really think that they will believe you? Obviously, your favorite is Qianfeng. So stop lying." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Xiang Liughed. "How did Big Brother knows about this?"

    Ji Yuan returned a sheepish answer. "Because I''m a genius."

    It was actually a no brainer answer because Xiang Li only popped up out his soul sea when he was alone with Qianfeng but Ji Yuan could not resist pasting some gold on himself.

    Meanwhile, Xue Qianxue and the other maidens were all looking with great envious in the direction of Ji Yuan when they saw that he was being surrounded by so many beautiful maidens.

    Xue Qianxue said coldly as she walked to Ji Yuan, "My lord! Have you forgotten that my Patriarch Great-Grandfather is still waiting for you inside the tent?"

    It was then that Ji Yuan had remembered so he said to all the maidens that were surrounding him. "Ahem! I''ve got to go now. Diviner Mo Ming is waiting for me."

    "Don''t go¡­"

    "We still have not finished our chats with you¡­"

    Ji Yuan reluctantly left the adtions of the hundreds of beautiful maidens and departed with Xue Qianxue and his other women to the tent where Diviner Mo Ming and Mo Bei were waiting impatiently for him.

    When Ji Yuan had appeared, Diviner Mo Ming was frowning impatiently. "What takes you so long to show up?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "I was being held up¡­"

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were all humming coldly, "He is being held up by many beauties and he was reluctant to leave them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This is not true at all¡­"

    Shangguan Yan interrupted softly. "He was chatting happily and had forgotten the time."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi added casually. "My lord is easily distracted if a pretty face is around. Moreover there were several pretty faces earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Only my Qianfeng is the best. She has always kept to herself¡­

    Bai Qianfeng said sarcastically, "With hundreds of choices now, he doesn''t care about his current mes anymore."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Even Qianfeng is unhappy with me¡­

    Luckily Saintess Yuluo is too weak to argue with me. Now she is the best¡­

    But heughed as he asked Mo Ming. "I have really missed you, old man. You want to talk to me?"

    Diviner Mo Ming frowned as he stared at Ji Yuan. Until now, he could not believe that Ji Yuan was the prophesized great hero.

    He hesitated before he asked. "Where did you pick your immortal sword from?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know. You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words. I am the original owner of my immortal sword." Ji Yuan chuckled. "It is a pledge of love from my Jiajia."

    "Jiajia? Who is she?" Diviner Mo Ming asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Aren''t you a diviner? Surely you can divine her out."

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    "Without any information, I can''t do any divination."

    Xue Qianxue was a little exasperated with Ji Yuan so she interrupted into their conversations. "Patriarch Great-Grandfather, actually who Jiajia is not important because when she had given her divine sword to Ji Yuan, this divine sword was only an earth-step divine sword. How it had be an immortal-step divine sword, it is actually a mystery to all of us as well."

    She felt very bad that she had lied to her Patriarch Great-Grandfather because she could not tell him that it may be due to the True Goddess'' Tear. Although she did not have any proof for it but it was equally unbelievable that a half-step celestial sword would jump one and a half-step to be a full immortal sword.

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled weakly as he said to Ji Yuan, "Can you show me your immortal sword again?"

    Ji Yuan casually took out his immortal sword again for Diviner Mo Ming for appraisal.

    Diviner Mo Ming was gasping as he held onto the sword with trembling fingers. "It is really¡­an immortal-step divine sword¡­"

    Then he saw that the sword was continuously shing two brilliant rainbow halos that seemed to be flowing along the des like a rain drop and repeating around it.

    "Dang! You have not only divine harmonized with it but have also perfect harmonized with it. I really can''t believe what I am seeing."

    Diviner Mo Ming took out his half-step celestial sword and everyone could see that there was a single halo on it, a sign that Diviner Mo Ming had divine harmonized with his divine sword. "Do you know how hard it is for me to obtain my half-step celestial sword? And do you know that it had taken me three thousand years to finally divine harmonized with my sword?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. "You are a little slow."

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue quietly stepped on Ji Yuan''s foot, causing him to chuckle softly. "I was only lucky. Haha. Maybe it is because I am a Sword Saint and it is easier for me to sync with my sword."

    Diviner Mo Ming smiled weakly before he grinned. "Do you still remember that you still owe the Mo n a big favor?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Surely you are not thinking of asking for my immortal sword?" Although he was prepared to surrender his immortal sword to Great Saint Jian Kang in exchange for his blessing to allow Saintess Yuluo to marry him but he was not prepared to surrender his immortal sword to the Mo n.

    Diviner Mo Mingughed. "Do you agree that a billion high grade spirit stones are more than enough to exchange for your immortal sword?"

    All the maidens, including Xue Qianxue were startled by what they were hearing; It is because an immortal sword is far too precious and is priceless.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; although that is enough but I was almost yed to the death by you during the Dream Trial¡­

    But this was a gentleman''s agreement. So he nodded. "Alright¡­"

    But Diviner Mo Mingughed. "I didn''t say I want your immortal sword. Haha. Did I just give you a big scare?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You''re an old joker¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming began to say solemnly as he stared at Ji Yuan. "I havee here as soon as I have a golden vision of what it is toe and these are the golden words that have appeared to me. An immortal sword of great power will be birthed and a future Great Hero will wield the sword of justice to deliver the Celestial Realm from a great cmity. This Great hero will be apassionate cultivator with a heart of gold and will unite the unorthodox and orthodox cultivators. And he will have a mark on both his hands."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "You really think it is me? I don''t know if I have a heart of gold but I do have a face of gold due to gold pasting. As for the unity of the unorthodox and orthodox cultivators, haha, I don''t think I am that great hero."

    Diviner Mo Ming nodded and said with a straight face. "Actually I don''t think you are that Great Hero too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "But other than you, I can''t think of anyone else now." Diviner Mo Mingughed. "So it must be you."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly as he rubbed his chins. He was silently cursing; this old man is too crafty.

    Xue Qianxue and the other maidens were all trying to suppress theirughter. It was because they knew that Ji Yuan was speechless in front of Diviner Mo Ming.

    "But still, it can''t be me. I don''t have any marks on both my hands." Ji Yuan pointed out; now eat this and exin it!

    Diviner Mo Ming sighed softly. "Precisely. You are right."

    "What does this mark looks like?" Ji Yuanughed when he saw that Diviner Mo Ming was not able to answer him.

    "The hell I know." Diviner Mo Ming replied weakly as he stroked his long beard to think. "But I have followed the omen to where you are. I cannot be wrong about this. As you know, I won''t be wrong."

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Maybe I can cut my hands to leave two scars for you. Then the prophecy can be fulfilled?"

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    Can you bemer than this?

    Diviner Mo Ming inhaled softly, "It may be rted to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and I have a bad hunch about it. If you are really the Great Hero then I need you to do one thing for the Mo n!"

    Ji Yuan asked. "What is it?"

    Diviner Mo Ming said solemnly. "Protect the Mo n with your strength."

    Xue Qianxue was gasping all of a sudden. This did not sound right in her ears. It is because the Mo n is one of the strongest celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and is a force to be reckoned with. For her Patriarch Great-Grandfather to say something like this will mean that the Mo n may be in danger.

    Even Mo Bei had turned ashen and he was looking quite uneasy.

    Ji Yuan replied awkwardly, "Erm, alright¡­if I am the one."

    Diviner Mo Ming took another look at Ji Yuan before he said solemnly. "And stay safe inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

 Chapter 193 Jiajia, Can You Stay For A Meal?

    At a secluded spot outside the biggest settlement;

    Shui Qingqing was now staring nkly at Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin. "Are you really my mother consort and sister?"

    Han Yuchi was weeping bitter tears as she held onto Shui Qingqing''s hands. "I''m really your mother¡­and this is your sister Zhao Songjin¡­"

    Shui Qingqing really could not believe her ears; one of them is the Matriarch Sacred Maiden and the other one is the Sacred Maiden, the current sect leader of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    "Songjin is your twin sister. When you were just a baby, I was pursued by the despicable Yin Wei and lost you. I had thought that I had lost you forever¡­" Han Yuchi had suddenly embraced Shui Qingqing and she was weeping. "I am so happy today. You are really alive and you really look like your twin sister."

    Shui Qingqing murmured. "Mother¡­"

    "How have you been all these years, child?" Han Yuchi began to examine her face and was touching her all over.

    "My Matriarch Pce Mistress has treated me very well and she has even appointed me as Pce Mistress." Shui Qingqing replied with trembling lips; she was really happy that she had found her mother consort and had even learnt that she had a sister.

    Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were both startled. "You''re the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce?"

    The Water Melody Pce is one of the three heretic pces of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and there are few cultivators that will dare to risk offending it because it has a powerful and mysterious presence.

    In recent months, an envoy from the Water Melody Pce by the name of Shui Sisi had been visiting the various celestial ns. Not only is she astonishing beautiful but she is also a peaked great saintess.

    Although there were many great saints around but it was extremely difficult to reach the peak of the cultivation level. Even Han Yuchi was still very far away from it.

    Han Yuchi asked, "Child, you are a saintess now?"

    Shui Qingqing smiled, "Yes, I am."

    Han Yuchi was astonished and so was Zhao Songjin as they exchanged astonishing look with each other.

    Zhao Songjin sighed softly. "The cultivation methods of the Water Melody Pce are indeed impressive." The reason why she had said that was because she had slept her way to be a saintess using various dual cultivation methods.

    Then she held Shui Qingqing''s hands. "It is so good to see you again, sister."

    Shui Qingqing beamed with delight. "I am so happy to see my sister again! Now I''m not lonely anymore!"

    Han Yuchi inhaled softly before asked. "Qingqing, are you going into the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth?"

    Shui Qingqing shook her head but there was no hint of sadness. "My Matriarch Pce Mistress forbids me to enter inside. I am just here to gain some exposure before heading back."

    But her eyes were soon beaming as she chuckled. "And to find Ji Yuan!"

    Han Yuchi was relieved that Shui Qingqing was not entering the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth as she stole a nce at Zhao Songjin who nodded lightly. But she was quite startled that Shui Qingqing had mentioned Ji Yuan. "You know him?"

    Shui Qingqingughed. "Yes, sort of. We are trapped in a cave before and there are only the two of us."

    Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were both gasping at the same time. This Ji Yuan was known to be a flirt and he was actually with their Qingqing alone. Even Xue Qianxue, the previous Sacred Maiden had fallen into his beastly hands and they immediately know that Shui Qingqing had also fallen into his hands.

    Han Yuchi did not want to say anything that would hurt her daughter so she smiled. "Stay here and be safe. We are going into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    "We?" Shui Qingqing asked curiously.

    Han Yuchi smiled. "Your Sister Songjin and I will be entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth together."

    Shui Qingqing curiously asked. "If my mother consort and sister are to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth then who shall lead the Celestial Orthodox Sect?"

    Han Yuchi smiled as she took a look at Zhao Songjin. "No one¡­" This was actually a secret that Han Yuchi would be actually entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; she was entering it with Zhao Songjin for a secret mission and that was to find Yin Wei. They were going inside to kill him and to avenge their humiliations.

    Zhao Songjin averted her eyes quietly¡­

    Han Yuchi said quietly to Shui Qingqing. "Child, Ji Yuan isn''t a good man for you. Find someone else, alright? You deserve someone better."

    Shui Qingqing was startled but she quickly smiled with great idtry. "He isn''t a wanted cultivator anymore. He is now a great hero!"

    Han Yuchi smiled weakly. She could not bear to tell her that they had a feud with Ji Yuan and Xue Qianxue. They had once tried to kill Ji Yuan when he was at the Celestial Orthodox Sect and Zhao Songjin had even framed Xue Qianxue and Ji Yuan.

    She turned to look at Shui Qingqing and gave another sigh. They had owed Ji Yuan a debt. As long as he did not hurt her Qingqing, she would not pursue Ji Yuan.

    Child, because of us, you''ve lost your chastity to Ji Yuan. He is never serious with you because he may already know about your simrities to Songjin. He is only taking his vengeance on you¡­

    This was Han Yuchi''s thoughts and she did not dare to tell Shui Qingqing.

    Zhao Songjin did not disy plenty of affections like her mother even though she was d to see her long lost sister again. It was not because she was lofty but because she had long broken her spirit to Yin Wei. In her eyes, she was as good as dead. All she wanted to do now was to kill Yin Wei!

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was drinking jovially with hundreds of cultivators that he had known in the past when he had suddenly received news that Jiajia and Xisi hade for a visit.

    So he quickly said to his old friends. "Haha. It is so good to see all of you again. But I have to go first. Please enjoy the wines and good food here. It is all on my tabs!" The Spirit Blue Moon Sect to be exact. Haha.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, it is so hard to see you and you are leaving already?"

    "Big Brother Ji, can''t you stay longer?"

    Guo Taiming sighed. "You are the star of today''s banquet and the hero of our Five Heavens Peak¡­"

    Even Li Ye was shaking his head, "Brother Ji Yuan is not showing us any face!"

    Now that Ji Yuan''s identity had been known, all his former friends were now acknowledging him again and they had even gathered together again at the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Altogether his friends numbered at least five hundreds, mostly from the Five Heavens Peaks and the cultivators that he had met during his adventure life.

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "I have two rare guests and I must see them. Haha."

    Guo Taimingughed. "May I ask if they are maidens?"

    Ji Yuan immediately rubbed his hands gleefully. "Two very beautiful maidens that I want to bang for a long time. Haha."

    And the hundreds of cultivators were allughing together.

    "Hahaha¡­"

    "Gogo!"

    "Or you will miss the chance¡­"

    "I wish you a great banging experience¡­"

    "Go bang them!"

    Now that Ji Yuan was back with his uncouthpany again, he began to talk uncouthly once again.<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li frowned in his soul sea. "I don''t like these men. They are so uncouth and so rude. They are asking you to bang your Jiajia and Xisi. They ought to be more polite."

    Ji Yuan was rendered a little speechless by Xiang Li. "Erm, what is wrong? I''ve thought that you talk the same way as them as well?"

    Xiang Li said unhappily. "I''m different. I''m a maiden but they are men. It is sexual harassment."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "But I talk the same way as them too¡­"

    "You''re different. You are my Big Brother! Only you can bang the maidens."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What kind of a logic is this?!

    But Ji Yuan was toozy to argue with Xiang Li in his soul sea now and he was only too eager to see Jiajia and Xisi again.

    Jiajia was too slippery and too busy to talk to him so he wanted to seize any opportunity that he could get. Jiajia was his heart demon for more than a hundred years ever since he had met her and the thought that he was now able to be with her made him very d.

    He made a quiet resolution. "Jiajia, before I enter the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, I am going to make you my woman!"

    "And Xisi too." He could not resist adding with a soft chuckle.

    When he had reached his main tent where Jiajia and Xisi were supposed to wait for him, he could hearughing sounds from his women.

    Xue Qianxue was asking. "So Jiajia, now that we know that this Envoy Sisi or rather Xisi is your sister, can you share with us some gossips when you had met Ji Yuan again for the first time at the Emperor Hall Sect?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "Yea. We have already told you everything about Ji Yuan. You ought to tell us about your experiences with Ji Yuan."

    "It is only fair." Little Princess insisted.

    Immediately, Ji Yuan could hear theughing chuckle that hade from Fairy Ye Chengxi, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue and Shangguan Yan. Even Bai Qianfeng and Saintess Yuluo were alsoughing softly in the background!

    Ji Yuan was suddenly rmed. It was because Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were starting a gossip about him again!

    This was not the first time that he had caught them gossiping about him that caused him to lose his face!

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia)ughed gently. "When Ji Yuan firstes to the Emperor Hall Sect, he had thought that he was very smart toe to see me with two dead bodies and pretending that he had found the two bodies. Therefore I had helped him to cover his bad act by pretending not to know him."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi chuckled. "I really had such a bad scare at that time when he had killed the two men. I really did not know what to do at that time. Lucky for him."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he listened; well, I can''t allow my sessor and favorite core prot¨¦g¨¦ to be molested. At that time, I was not thinking straight and may be a little ruthless¡­

    "So I had appointed him as a core prot¨¦g¨¦ for being ''honest'' with me." Saintess Fang Zhenfei said before she chuckled. "But I had made him an elderter on because he was bootlicking me too much. I had actually asked him who are the prettier, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Xue Qianxue and me. He actually said I am the prettiest, hehe¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Xue Qianxue were startled. "What did he say about us?"

    "Well he says¡­."

    But before Saintess Fang Zhenfei could finish, Ji Yuan quickly entered the tent. It was because he knew that he had badmouthed both Fairy Ye Chengxi and Xue Qianxue while he was in Jiajia''s presence.

    And it was something that he knows that he would be in serious trouble if all the maidens had heard him. Therefore he had to quickly interrupt their gossips.

    When all the maidens heard Ji Yuan''s footsteps which he had intentionally created, they immediately stopped theirughter and when Ji Yuan had entered the tent, all the maidens had a look of disappointment on their faces.

    Shui Xisi who was interested to know more about Ji Yuan and she was the most disappointed because she wanted to know everything about Ji Yuan. "You have really made a bad timing toe."

    Ji Yuanughed with an innocent look before he grinned. "As soon as I have heard that Jiajia is here, I had rushed here immediately. Haha."

    He had purposely left out Xisi''s name and saw that there was a look of envious in her eyes. She got baited by him, exactly as he had wanted.

    So he asked. "Erm, Jiajia you are looking for me?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled gently before she shook her head. "s, I am actually here to look for Diviner Mo Ming but I was a littlete and he had already left."

    She had actually wanted Diviner Mo Ming''s help to help for a divination. Even a great saintess like her could not see Diviner Mo Ming anytime and when. This was a great opportunity for her to meet Diviner Mo Ming after she had learnt that he hade. But when she had arrived here, he had already returned to the Eon Firmament Mountains.

    "You are not here to look for me?" Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed and it shown on his face.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei smiled. "I guess I should be leaving now."

    Ji Yuan panicked said. "Jiajia, you are not staying? Maybe for a meal?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei chuckled. "I don''t eat for a long time and I''m a little busy. Farewell and see you next time soon."

    She turned to say to Shui Xisi. "Come sister, we are leaving now."

    "Alright." Shui Xisi giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was no closer to chasing after Jiajia. His dreams of banging Jiajia and even Xisi had just gone burst and his hopes were shattered like the winds¡­

    The disappointment on his face was like the burning sun in the noon¡­

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei chuckled. "Maybe we can just stay for a short meal with you and have a little chat."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan wasughing heartily and the happiness in his face was like the burning sun in the noon. "Haha. Good, good!"

    Even Xiang Li was smiling and drooling in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "You know, I was also so disappointed when Jiajia and Xisi are unable to stay."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially to Xiang Li. "It is all due to my handsome charisma!"

    Xiang Li had a look of adtion in her eyes as she looked dreamily at Ji Yuan...

    "Yea! Big Brother is the best!"

    All the other maidens could see Ji Yuan''s expressions that were like the burning noon sun and they were all trying to suppress theirughter. It was because Ji Yuan did not know that he was being yed around by Jiajia again.

 Chapter 194 Unlikely Allies

    Nightfall, at the secret spot that was overlooking the glowing descending mountain of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth;

    A group of high level cultivators had just taken off their dark hoods and were viewing one another with great suspicion.

    These dark hoods cultivators had alle from different directions and some of them did not appear to know one another. Some were even surprised to one another.

    "You''re all here as well?"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong and Saint Jin Yilong of the Mystic Profound Pavilion were the first to remove their hood.

    They were swiftly followed by Second Young Master Zhan Zhong and Great Saint Zhan Wuji the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of the Great Inevitable Divine n.

    Young Master Bo Anwan, future sessor of the Burning Heavens Pavilion was with his father the Great Saint Bo Yikai and also the sect leader of the Burning Heavens Pavilion.

    Even Grand Elder Kai Renjie and the Patriarch leader Kai Mo of the Iron Righteous n were also presented.

    They were all smiling and were greeting Great Saint Zhan Wuji who headed the most powerful orthodox celestial n.

    The next group to remove their hoods was Great Saint Gu Tiexin the sect leader and Great Saint Gu Gui of the Dark Solstice Sect. The Dark Solstice Sect was one of the five major unorthodox ns and was the strongest of the major unorthodox ns.

    Great Saint Gu Gui looked a little grumbly and was unhappy; it was because he knew what this meeting was about and he was unhappy about it.

    "Great Saint Gu Tiexin!"

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji greeted him coolly as he looked at his surroundings. "It seems that the most important guests are still not around¡­"

    "Who says we are not around?" a beautiful voice chuckled. It was Sagess Mei as she appeared into view and she was apanied by two peaked great saints and they were First Citadel Lord Yin Wei and Second Citadel Lord Yin Xiong.

    The Sagess Meiughed softly. "I am sure all of you know why we are here? We are all here naturally to cement an alliance with one another for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji asked solemnly. "So what do you want?"

    The Sagess Mei smiled coldly. "It is simple enough. We only have two conditions. We want Ji Yuan to be dead and I''m sure that that is your wishes as well. We know that Ji Yuan will be going into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well and I want all of you to hunt him down. If you can kill him then you can keep his immortal sword and we will not intervene."

    Immediately there were soft mutterings.

    "Ji Yuan must die because he is trying to upset the old order¡­"

    "He is spreading heretic teachings¡­"

    "He is insulting our beards¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is making us look like clowns¡­"

    Fully half of the cultivators at the settlement actually did not believed in Ji Yuan''s nonsense about his beardless theory and they numbered a hundred thousand cultivators.

    Even though they had heard rumors that Diviner Mo Ming had dered Ji Yuan to be a great hero but they were still in disbelief because their beards were the source of their manly prides.

    "Even a lion has its beautiful manes¡­"

    "Now Ji Yuan want us to be beardless tigers instead¡­"

    Great Saint Gu Gui was unhappy that they were all talking bad behind his Big Brother Ji Yuan''s back so he said with a displeasure tone. "How do you know if a beardless tiger isn''t stronger than a mane lion? From what I can see, a tiger has longer fangs and is more muscr than a lion."

    "There are lions that are as big as a small hill and these lions are real deste beasts. You can''tpare mortal lions with the lion deste beasts of the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "Silence!" Great Saint Gu Tiexin said to Great Saint Gu Gui. "Ji Yuan must die because he is a threat our sect''s ambition to dominate the unorthodox fraternity.

    "But brother¡­you must think of the bigger picture! Ji Yuan is actually a nice guy. If we can befriend him, it is equally advantageous to us¡­"

    But Great Saint Gu Tiexin hummed coldly, "Are you the sect leader or I am the sect leader?"

    Great Saint Gu Gui sighed as he said to everyone. "Since I have outstayed my wee, I shall not stay in this meeting anymore."

    With an angry huff, he had left the meeting.

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji asked the Sagess Mei. "And what is the second condition?"

    Sagess Mei smiled coldly, "Once they had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, follow me to attack the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. The Evil Cultivation Pce only wants Little Princess and Xue Qianxue."

    Jin Yilong said angrily, "Even though the Spirit Blue Moon Sect is an unorthodox n but I hope that you did not forget that there is an armistice while the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is still around. How can we join you in this undertaking? We will be the public enemy of the entire fraternity!"

    Zhan Zhong found himself agreeing with Jin Yilong. "I am afraid that we can''t agree to the second condition!"

    Sagess Mei giggled. "Although the two of you may be the future sessors to your celestial ns but you are not yet the sessors. Therefore you can''t decide this for your celestial n. I happen to know that the two of you will be entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to try to take Yin Wei''s life. The one who will take Yin Wei''s life will have the chance to take Zhao Songjin to be his consort, am I right?"

    Both Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong were smiling weakly; it was true.

    They were calling all the shots when their fathers had suddenly taken an active hand and had even arrived at the settlement to inform them that there was a secret meeting with the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji inhaled softly, "This is a little hard¡­"

    The rest of the leaders nodded, "Actually Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong are right¡­this is a little hard¡­"

    None of them had wanted to be a public enemy of the entire fraternity.

    Second Citadel Lord Yin Xiongughed jovially. "Actually it is not difficult at all. We totally understand that you cannot help us to attack the Spirit Blue Moon Sect directly. All we require from all of you is, lead your sects and allies out of the settlement so that it will make things a little easier for us to raid the settlement."

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji muttered, "This is not hard at all then¡­"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong said impatiently. "Then how do we know if you will keep your promise to us?"

    Before the meeting had started, the Evil Cultivation Pce had promised them that they would spare them the wrath of their metamorph monsters.

    The Sagess Meiughed, "You must know that the Evil Cultivation Pce has always been a peace loving sect. We didn''t attack you first and you are the ones that have attacked us. Naturally our Evil Cultivation Master isn''t going to overlook this slight. But if you are able to help the Evil Cultivation Pce on this then we will promise you that we will not loosen our metamorph monsters on your sect. I am sure that you are aware on how deadly our metamorph monsters are by now?"

    The deadly attacks of the metamorph monsters had decimated many cultivators belonging to the six major orthodox ns and numerous cultivators from hundreds of celestial ns had also perished too.

    Many of the leaders of the six major orthodox ns were now a little afraid of the Evil Cultivation Pce and they did not know how many trump cards that they still possess.

    Therefore they had decided that it was time for their own self-preservation instead. By sacrificing Ji Yuan and closing one eye to the Evil Cultivation Pce raid on the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, they were guaranteed of their own sect''s survival. This was actually a tempting bargain for them.

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji asked. "And you won''t attack us if wee into conflicts inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    The Sagess Mei chuckled. "Of course not. We will be allies from now on."

    Great Saint Zhan Wuji nodded quietly. "Then we are in."

    When everyone saw that Great Saint Zhan Wuji was in, a floodgate was opened and none of the leaders had wanted to beg behind so they quickly agreed to make a secret pact together.

    Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong were secretly sighing. They had wanted to use the strength of their celestial n to hunt down Yin Wei inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but it was no longer possible now. Even if the two of them joined hands together, they may not be Yin Wei''s match because he is a peaked great saint.

    Their biggest dilemma was that the two of them had fallen in love with Zhao Songjin and they were hoping to be the ones that would kill Yin Wei for her.

    Now they could only secretly pray that none of their otherpetitors would have the chance to kill Yin Wei.

    In fact they were now praying that Yin Wei would live a long life and Zhao Songjin would change her mindter.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was looking blissful as he looked at Jiajia as he sent her out after their meals together. But he was unable to hold her hand or touch her butt because Xisi, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were around.

    But that was enough for him because he was contented that she was in hispany. When he had first met Jiajia, he did not think that he would fall in love again after several lost romances. Although he may appear to be a flirt but it was all because he did not want to lose his face in front of his friends and ''brothers'' so he had to pretend that he was really interested in ''women'' and gossiped about them.

    But the truth was that, ever since he had been ''raped'' by Little Princess, he did not have any romantic notions anymore. Moreover he was gaining experiences along the way and was quite cool toward temporary rtionships.

    But Jiajia changed all that.

    He was admiring Jiajia from a respectable distance when she had suddenly approached him to have a little chat with him. This was a something that he had not expected and he quickly seized upon the opportunity to know her. It was really rare for him to take a liking to a maiden as well since he was the adtions of many maidens because of his beautiful long beard.

    He had really thought that Jiajia was attracted to him because of his beautiful long beard and he did not know that Jiajia actually know what he had looked like underneath his long beard.

    He was quite touched that she was willing to be with him if he couldplete a quick mission for her. Although the mission was a sess but he had screwed it up by dropping into Xue Qianxue''s bathtub.

    So he tried to hold her onto a pledge. To his surprise, she had actually agreed.

    At that time, he did not know that Jiajia had actually setup a ruse to get to know him better.

    Jiajia had naturallye clean to this during the short meal with everyone since all the maidens presented were all going to be Ji Yuan''s consorts or going to be her sisters in the future.

    She was forced to admit, "Actually I didn''t expect that¡­I will fall in love with Ji Yuan back then."

    "As some of have already known, I was just trying to show him that I am also a little beauty beside Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course you are a beauty or I won''t fall in love with you."

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia) chuckled. "Superficial."

    Immediately all the other maidens were allughing, "Yea. Superficial!"

    Xiang Li who had appeared to join them to have a meal asked. "What is wrong with that?"

    Xue Qianxue winked at Xiang Li as she chuckled in a cute manner. "Xiang Li! You don''t look at just the appearance. You must look at the heart of a person."

    Immediately all the maidens were nodding and agreeing.

    "That''s right!"<sub> </sub>

    "True!"

    Xiang Li and Ji Yuan immediately rolled their eyes and they did not dare to disagree in front of them.

    Ji Yuan and Xiang Li secretly said at the same time to each other, "Looks first then heart." This was the conclusion of their great dao together.

    Jiajia continued but this time her countenance had suddenly be solemn. "Maybe it is time for me to share with everyone¡­" It was because Ji Yuan now had the strength to protect everyone.

    "I was actually hoping to matchmake Sister Qianxue with Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue blinked her eyes, "Huh?!"

    Ji Yuan mused with a soft chuckle. "Why am I so lucky?"

    Ling Feiyue looked a little panicky, "So I am the extra all along?" She felt a little hurt but quickly got over it. It was because she is now with Ji Yuan and that is a fact. And moreover Xue Qianxue is her best friend now because of what had happened in the past.

    Jiajiaughed, "That is only because Sister Qianxue likes Ji Yuan from the very start and I didn''t want to give the Evil Cultivation Pce any benefit. So I will prefer Sister Qianxue to lose her chasity to someone that she likes. But of course that man must also be someone that is not affiliated with the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    "And that man must be someone must be beautiful enough to attract her lofty eyes. I figured out that Ji Yuan may be the man and that poem that he had written may be a good opportunity for me to make use of."

    Ji Yuanughed shamelessly, "You got the right man..."

    Jiajia went on to exin. "Do you still remember that I had told you that I am on something dangerous thest time that we had met?"

    Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng were all nodding.

    "I am actually after the plots of the Evil Cultivation Pce. And through my intelligencework, I know that they are plotting against Sister Qianxue here and they even have their moles inside the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    Little Princess nodded and said without any emotion as she interrupted briefly. "That is right."

    "They are actually after Xue Qianxue''s body because she has already mastered the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the eighth level and I know the secret why they are after Sister Qianxue."

    Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "What secret?"

    Jiajiaughed. "The Sacred Maiden Profound Art is able to restore the fertility of a cultivator. As you know, the higher the cultivation realm of the cultivator, the harder it is for them to have any children."

    Xue Qianxue frowned immediately. "I don''t get it. This Evil Cultivation Master already has three children. He doesn''t need to increase his fertility by copting with me."

    "There is another secret that only the Sacred Maiden Profound Art is able to aplish." Jiajia slowly said.

    Xue Qianxue: ???

    Jiajia slowly said. "It can restore the vitality and profound strength of the cultivator to its peak."

    Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "The Evil Cultivation Master is injured?"

    Jiajia shook her head. "He is merely trying to restore his body to its peak. But for that, he needed you to first attain your Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the eighth rank first. Because you are the only one that show the aptitude to attain to such a lofty high level and he knows it. That is why he has been secretly aiding the Celestial Orthodox Sect in the past."

    Little Princess said honestly. "We were told to report to the Evil Cultivation Master once you have reached the eighth rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art but we had never realized that you are already on the ninth rank. Even your Matriarch Sacred Maiden can only attain to the seventh rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art."

    Jiajia nodded. "She had disyed her ninth rank of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art during the new sacred maiden ceremony. That was why I know that I have to act quickly."

    Little Princess inhaled softly. "The Evil Cultivation Master has even betrayed his very own daughter¡­"

    Jiajia sighed. "This is something that I have not expected too and everything is moving too fast for me." Then she lit a slow smile. "But one thing that I''m very sure is, you are not his daughter."

    Little Princess: ???

    "What do you mean?"

    Jiajia hesitated for a while before saying. "You have the Nine Yin Divine Body and you cannot possibly be his child."

    "What do you mean?" Little Princess asked curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly interrupted. "It is exactly as I have suspected too. The Sagess Alyssa isn''t your mother consort as well."

    Little Princess was stunned. She really could not believe what she was hearing. "Then who are my parents?"

    Bai Qianfeng replied coolly, "No one because you may be birthed from the essences of the heavens and the earth; they may have taken you here from the Gods'' Realm."

    But before Little Princess could recover from her perplexed look, Jiajia said to everyone. "I''m afraid that the Evil Cultivation Pce may already have ns to move against the Spirit Blue Moon Sect or rather Sister Qianxue and Little Princess. Therefore we will need a contingency n to thwart their ns."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "Then I''m not going into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth anymore."

    Jiajia smiled. "You ought to go. I will help you to protect Sister Qianxue here."

    "Huh Jiajia? You''re not entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?" Ji Yuan was startled.

    Jiajia replied. "My Sister Sisi will take my ce to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but I will mislead everyone into thinking that I will be inside. The n that I have in mind is simple enough. I will pretend to be Sister Qianxue to lure the Evil Cultivation Pce to me."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately. "Jiajia, it is too dangerous for you. Why don''t I stay behind to help you?"

    Jiajia shook her head as she said, "You have to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to distract them and to help me to thwart another plot of the Evil Cultivation Pce for me. Moreover, if you are around, it will be more dangerous for me. My moles have told me that they will being for you."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he smiled weakly. "They really love me, do they?"

    Jiajia giggled. "Don''t worry for me. Have you forgotten who I am? I can take care of myself."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. Jiajia is the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce as well.

    "Then what do you want me to do inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Jiajia replied. "Stop them from obtaining the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. In order to do so, you mustplete the trial."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Back to the present;

    Ji Yuanughed, "Jiajia, you are the best. At least you are never a gossiper like some of them."

    Jiajiaughed gently. "They are gossiping about you because they all love you and have made you into their talking point. You really don''t understand women too well."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "Really?!"

    He secretly asked Xiang Li. "What do you think, Xiang Li?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I never gossip about my big brother! And I love my big brother!"

    Ji Yuan failed to notice that Xiang Li was stammering and rolling her eyes inside his soul sea. It was because she was not telling the truth and had been gossiping with Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess; she had promised not to tell Ji Yuan about their gossips.

    Ji Yuanughed. "Lucky I''m smart enough to ask you first. Only a maiden will understand a maiden. Jiajia may be trying to put me into a test."

    So he replied to Jiajia. "No, you are the best. I know that your love for me is the deepest even though you have never gossiped about me."

    Jiajia was secretly touched and was flushing gently. "There are others around here¡­"

    Shui Xisi hummed unhappily. "Some men have eyes but are blinded¡­"

    Jiajiaughed before she asked with a wry smile. "What do you think of my Sister Sisi?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and thought. "This must be another trick question¡­"

    "Will you like to take my sister as your consort as well?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. Jiajia is adding another trick question on top of the earlier trick question. Have my tryst with her sister been discovered by her? Jiajia is so smart. She must have discovered it. Crap¡­

    He had actually liked Shui Xisi a lot but he was now rolling his eyes panicky.

    Jiajia was still looking at him earnestly for his reply. "So what do you think?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "No way, we are impossible¡­"

    Shui Xisi stomped her foot and was about to speed off when Jiajia caught hold of her hands and put her hands together with Ji Yuan.

    Jiajia wasughing softly as she looked at Ji Yuan, "This isn''t a trick question. I saw what had happened that night and I think my sister will be happy with you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I really have been discovered¡­

    But this isn''t a trick question?

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly as she shook her hands off Ji Yuan, "Sister, since he doesn''t want me then I will go as far away as possible. I will never want to see this rascal again¡­"

    But as soon as she was about to leave, Ji Yuan had shed in front of her and was holding her hands. "Erm, if you really leave like this then who will pinch my nose in the future?"

    Before Shui Xisi could protest, Ji Yuan had pulled her into his embrace. "Don''t go. I do like you¡­"

    Shui Xisi''s disappointment began to fade away immediately and she was giggling shyly in his embrace.

    Ji Yuanughed too. "Sisi, you have such an ugly expression during the meal earlier. Now you look much better now that you are smiling."

    Shui Xisi hummed softly. "That is because I am the odd one out."

    Jiajia was also smiling. "Please be tolerant of my little sister. She has many virtues."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course I will."

    Xiang Li was pping excitingly, "YES! YES! YES!"

 Chapter 195 Unrest In The Mountains (1)

    The mountain spot here was extremely secluded and there was a wild battle in the bushes.

    A couple was fighting wildly inside the bushes and they seemed to be having a great deal of fun as they attempted to rip each other clothes as they exchanged wild punches.

    Soon they were kissing passionately and were rubbing against each other.

    This couple was none other than Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi.

    Ji Yuan had offered to send her back after Jiajia had left but instead of sending her back, they had secretly departed to the mountains and they were caressing each other passionately.

    Xiang Li was watching their battle impatiently in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Big brother, why are you not banging her yet?"

    "I''m waiting for the perfect opportunity to bang her." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan exined. "Sisi is very wild and up to my taste but I''m waiting for her to take the initiative like Ling Tianshui first. If I take the initiative first, it will spoil the experience between us. But if she takes the initiative first then she will be wilder and we will have a great time."

    Xiang Li giggled. "Big Brother, does it matter?"

    "Of course it does!"

    "But I am getting bored¡­"

    "Be quiet and watch¡­she is going to be baited soon!"

    An hour had passed¡­

    Xiang Li said. "Still not done yet?"

    "Soon¡­"

    Two hours had passed¡­

    "Erm¡­big brother¡­"

    "Be quiet, Xiang Li. Soon¡­"

    For the past two hours, Ji Yuan was still kissing Shui Xisi passionately as they rolled on the ground and they were continuous rubbing and caressing each other body.

    Shui Xisi did not show any sign of slowing down and she was continuous kissing back passionately as she explored his tongue.

    Ji Yuan was beginning to think that his strategy was failing now because Shui Xisi seemed to be kissing him endlessly and she was increasing the pace of her kisses instead of slowing down.

    And he was starting to be panicky.

    So he decided not to follow his n anymore as he thought. "Screw my n¡­"

    So he tried to remove her belt but Shui Xisi was having none of it as she rolled yfully over him.

    Darn¡­she is too nimble¡­where did she learn all these moves from?

    She was like a skilled and nimble wrestler. Each time Ji Yuan had managed to lift her skirt, she would roll and lift her skirt down again. Time and time again, he tried to attack her three vulnerable parts but she would guard it nimbly. Although she would press her bosoms on him but she would never allow him to gain the advantage.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that his unarmedbat sucks big time in front of her¡­

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she whispered in his ears. "Ji Yuan, what are you trying to do?"

    Ji Yuan replied with a straight face. "You obviously know what I am trying to do. You are lucky that I''m a gentleman of the sword and I am only waiting for you to surrender to me."

    Shui Xisi giggled as she pinched his nose at the same time. "You are truly a little liar. Why don''t you say you can''t get me to undress?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Do I have to when I know that you will undress in front of me sooner orter?"

    Shui Xisi wasughing jovially too but all of a sudden she put her fingers on Ji Yuan''s mouth. "Be quiet, there is someone¡­"

    All of a sudden she gave a small gasp when Ji Yuan had suddenly fondled her bosoms. "You!...not now¡­"

    Finally Ji Yuan was now happy; he had finally won the battle with her.

    Below the mountain path, three dark hood cultivators could be seen walking in with a rapid pace in the dead of the night.

    A male voice was heard humming coldly, "I don''t understand. Why are we allying with these cultivators? Why don''t we unleash our metamorph monsters on them instead? These so call great leaders of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are nothing but cowards."

    "Yin Wei. We''re only calling a bluff. That is why I need the two of you to be here so that they will know that you are nearby to make a strike at them." The Sagess Mei replied.

    Yin Wei was startled. "What do you mean by that?"

    The Sagess Mei replied casually. "Other than some eggs from the epic eighth rank metamorph beast that we had unleashed on them, we have no more metamorph monsters now."

    Yin Wei stammered. "We don''t have any metamorph monsters anymore?!"

    The Sagess Mei said ruefully, "I actually do not want to use that epic eighth rank metamorph beast until my experiment ispleted but that is the order of the Evil Master. Curse that Ji Yuan for killing ourst trump card. Now we can only pray that these eggs are able to produce the much needed metamorph cores that we needed to breed the next generation of metamorph monsters."

    Yin Xiong sighed. "Although we are the Citadel Lords but it seemed that our father does not trust us at all. Sagess Mei and Sagess Alyssa are indeed my father''s most trusted aides."<sub> </sub>

    "You have better worried about retrieving your father''s celestial sword or else you will be in deep trouble." The Sagess Mei returned a cold gaze at him.

    Yin Wei and Yin Xiong were actually looking at the Sagess Mei in a lecherous manner. Moreover Yin Wei had seen her naked before when he was visiting his father.

    The Sagess Mei smiled coldly, "I have talked too much and the Evil Master won''t be pleased. Please do not reveal what I have told you today..."

    Above the mountain cliffs, Ji Yuan was startled to encounter the leadership of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Moreover one of them was Yin Wei that Little Princess had wanted to kill. If he could kill Yin Wei then Little Princess would not have to risk her life to enter the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    Therefore he had immediately disyed abat position to sprint down the cliff to attack Yin Wei but Shui Xisi held him back by tapping him gently on his shoulder as she shook her head silently. She disyed a quick hand gesture by showing Ji Yuan two fingers and then three fingers; it was an indication that they were only two and their opponents had three peaked great saints.

    In short, it was unwise to attack them.

    But Ji Yuan shook his head with a fierce determination. It was because he would rather take his chance now than never. There was no promise that he would meet Yin Wei in the vast Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and there was no promise that he would be able to protect Little Princess once he was inside.

    But here, he had his sights on Yin Wei!

    It was extremely risky for him to take Yin Wei down here because he was outnumbered by three cultivators that were all peaked great saints and they were all power cultivators.

    Xiang Li could sense Ji Yuan''s determination and she cried silently in his soul sea. "Be careful big brother¡­"

    All of a sudden there were three maidens that had appeared at the other end of the path; they were Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing.

    When Zhao Songjin saw Yin Wei, she was startled and she had immediately unsheathed her divine sword to attack him!

    Han Yuchi panicky said to Shui Qingqing, "Child, leave this ce as soon as possible! I am going to help¡­Songjin!" She dared not acknowledge Songjin as her daughter in the presence of the strangers here.

    Yin Wei was equally startled but he was soon smiling as he unsheathed his divine sword. "Songjin, Yuchi. Haha. I have been missing the two of you recently. Where have you been? And you have even brought another beautiful maiden here?"

    In a sh of an eye, Zhao Songjin was already upon Yin Wei as she brandished her sword with a startling speed!

    There was a quick flurrying of their swords as they quickly moved into their attack positions.

    Yin Xiong had his eyes on Shui Qingqing as he roared withughter. "Brother, let me help you with thisss over there¡­" And he had sped past Han Yuchi by knocking her aside with a burst of profound speed.

    Han Yuchi was startled that the profound strength of Yin Xiong was above her. If she had not recently lost her Sacred Maiden Profound Art, she may not be knocked aside so easily.

    "Oh no, you don''t!" There was a feminine shout as Shui Xisi had suddenly appeared above Yin Xiong as she brandished her immortal sword.

    Shui Qingqing was startled, "Matriarch¡­" She quickly correctly herself. "Envoy Sisi¡­"

    Not only were Yin Xiong and Shui Qingqing startled by the sudden appearance of Shui Xisi, all the others were as well. It was because they had not expected that Shui Sisi would be here and Yin Wei was now eying her lustfully.

    The Sagess Mei was the most startled as she recognized Shui Xisi''s immortal sword as she gasped silently, "Isn''t this the immortal sword of the Great Goddess Alice?!"

    In the split second when Shui Xisi had appeared, Ji Yuan had also jumped over the cliff but he had made his move against Yin Wei.

    Ji Yuan was half-amused. Sisi had told him not to make a false move but she had made the first move herself. Woman really changes their minds as easily as they can change their clothing¡­

    But he quickly brandished all his secondary thoughts aside as he lifted his sword with a brilliant white light and his sword spirit had appeared on his forehead; he was going to seize this great opportunity to kill Yin Wei and there was no time to lose.

    In the next blink of an eye, he had unleashed his most powerful profound sword art the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as a brilliant white light condensed with his deadly sword energies had rained down upon Yin Wei like a pir of light.

    The Sagess Mei shouted panicky to Yin Wei. "Evade! Don''t tank his move!"

    There was a brilliant pir of implosion as the cliff next to Yin Wei was split like a pir of fire when Ji Yuan''s profound sword art had fallen upon him.

    Yin Wei was naturally unharmed as he had evaded out of the way, leaving Ji Yuan to inhale heavily as hended.

    "What? I have missed?" Ji Yuan was somewhat surprise when Yin Wei had suddenly evaded out of his way in a nick of time, leaving him to blink his eyes that Yin Wei would be such a coward.

    Yin Wei shouted angrily. "Ji Yuan, you and I have no feud with each other. Why are you opposing me?"

    Ji Yuan shouted angrily back. "Are you sure we have no feud? I remember that I have been running from the Evil Cultivation Pce for as long as I can remember!"

    Zhao Songjin was sent flying to Ji Yuan''s side when the furious explosion of Ji Yuan''s profound sword art had struck the cliff. "Ji Yuan! Please help me to kill Yin Wei! Use your profound sword art again. I will engage Yin Wei. Don''t worry about me!"

    Ji Yuan was still inhaling heavily as he smiled weakly at Zhao Songjin. He had actually wanted to tell her that he could only use this trump card of his only twice at the most. If he missed again or used his secret trump card again, he would be in a vulnerable position.

    He had actually thought that Yin Wei would try to prove his superiority by receiving his profound sword art. After all, power cultivators would never evade when they had encountered a sword cultivator but this Yin Wei would actually try to evade his attack. But even if he had tried to evade his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon, it was going to be difficult because Ji Yuan had virtually locked his position.

    However the impossible thing had happened; Yin Wei could actually blink his way out of a difficult position even though Ji Yuan was also quick enough to change the course of his attack.

    Ji Yuan of course did not know that his enemies had been watching the rey of his profound sword art repeatedly and know that his profound sword art could onlyst three blinks of an eye and they had been studying it in case they were to fight Ji Yuan one day.

    Therefore Yin Wei had quickly disyed all his profound strength into evading out of the way and he had escaped with some light injuries when his profound animus was burnt by the profound energies of Ji Yuan''s profound sword art.

    The Sagess Mei had shed next to Yin Wei, "Are you alright?"

    Yin Wei nodded quietly as he trembled lightly when he saw the cliff that had been split into a streak of burning sword energies behind him. The profound power of this Ji Yuan was extremely startling¡­

    The Sagess Mei was now smiling as she unsheathed her half-step celestial sword. "Yin Wei, we are in luck. To think that Ji Yuan will deliver himself to us on his own ord."

 Chapter 196 Unrest In The Mountains (2)

    The battle in the mountains quickly thundered furiously.

    Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing were fighting against Yin Xiong and they had the upper hand.

    Ji Yuan, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were fighting against Yin Wei and the Sagess Mei. However, they had the lower hand. It was because Yin Wei and the Sagess Mei were both peaked great saints. Moreover they were quite a formidable fighter.

    The Sagess Mei had quickly stepped in with her half-step celestial sword to fight off Ji Yuan. Even though Ji Yuan had an immortal sword and a sword spirit now, he had thought that he would have an advantage over the Sagess Mei.

    He was wrong!

    The Sagess Mei was actually a morepetent fighter than the Sagess Alyssa and she had dismantled all of Ji Yuan''s attacking strokes with ease. In fact, Ji Yuan had never met a cultivator that could fight with such tenacity like her.

    It was not only Ji Yuan that was surprised but the Sagess Mei as well. It was because she was known as the Battle Goddess Mei and she could not believe that her lightning strikes were not able to gain a single advantage over Ji Yuan.

    She cursed silently; this Ji Yuan is too fast. So far, we have both hit each other a few times but it was nothing grievous. He had both profound power and speed¡­

    On the other hand, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were having a difficult time handling a single Yin Wei. It was almost a repeat of their previous fight against him!

    Ji Yuan saw that too and he had to asionally intervened to help them against Yin Wei. But he was not able to aid them for long because he had a superior foe (the Sagess Mei) that was constantly on his toes.

    The whole mountain was now echoing with the sounds of their sword fights and destructive profound energies.

    After several rounds of fierce fight; Ji Yuan, Zhao Songjin, Han Yuchi, Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing were quickly put to the run with Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi covering the retreat of their group as they fled down the mountains!

    The five of them virtually sped down the mountains with the Sagess Mei, Yin Wei and Yin Xiong hot in pursue!

    Ji Yuan continuously disyed several bursts of sword energies as he sent rocks to fall onto his pursuers.

    After a while, they had their first break as Shui Xisi shouted to everyone. "Into the deste mists!"

    Using that narrow window where Ji Yuan had won them valuable time, they instinctively know what to do as they quickly sheathed their divine swords into their spatial rings to conceal their profound auras.

    The five of them were all panting heavily as they looked at one another with weak smiles.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he saw Shui Xisi, Shui Qingqing, Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi were all swallowing some profound pills as they rested their heartbeats at the same time.

    He had only one word to say; can you give me some of your profound pills to replenish my strength?

    Shui Xisi frowned. "We have five of us and yet we are unable to handle the three of them? What is wrong with your side?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "We have two peaked cultivators on our toes. Naturally it is not easy."

    Zhao Songjin lowered her eyes, "I am too weak. Yin Wei knows my weakness pretty well while I don''t even know half of his."

    Han Yuchi heaved a soft sigh. "I may be a great saintess but my profound strength is iparable against Yin Wei."

    Shui Qingqing muttered. "Only Envoy Sisi here is a peak great saintess¡­"

    "Qingqing, why are you here?" Shui Xisi was suddenly frowning.

    Shui Qingqing lit a beaming smile. "I have found my mother consort and sister!"

    When Shui Xisi had heard, she was stunned and so was Ji Yuan.

    "Your mother and sister?" Shui Xisi turned to look at Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin. There was a rumor that Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were mother and daughter but that was never proven.

    Han Yuchi inhaled softly before she nodded quietly. She had never expected that Qingqing would reveal her background the moment that she was asked.

    Shui Qingqing has always been very frank with her Matriarch Pce Mistress and she did not think that this was a great secret that she ought to hide.

    "So you have found your mother consort?" Shui Xisi said with a sense of loss. She had always regarded Shui Qingqing as her daughter and was saddened that she had found her birth mother. After all she had found her as a baby.

    This would mean that their rtionship would not be the same as before.

    Shui Qingqing giggled softly, "Yes. Really!"

    Then she took a curious look at Ji Yuan, "Brother Li Yuan. Or should I call you Brother Ji Yuan. Why didn''t you tell me who you are when we are together?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "At that time I was erm¡­a wanted man?"

    Shui Qingqing suddenly turned to Shui Xisi to ask. "Mmm, why are the two of you together?"

    Shui Xisi, Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi had a flushed look, "We are not together. We have only happened to meet."

    "Yeah!" Ji Yuan panicky said. "I was only taking a walk in the mountains when I erm¡­encounter Envoy Sisi. Then we have heard of amotion."

    Zhao Songjin casually said as she took a curious look at Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi. "It seems to me that the two of you are more than just friends."

    Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi: ¡­

    All of a sudden they had noticed that they were leaning closely to each other.

    Shui Xisi quickly rebuked Ji Yuan. "Are you trying to take advantage of me? Back off!"

    Ji Yuan pretended to protest. "Can''t you see that we have five of us here and we are cramping in this narrow space?"

    All of a sudden Yin Wei voice could be heard above them. "Ji Yuan! Songjin! I know that you are still in the vicinity. Do you really think that you can hide below the deste mists and we will not dare to follow you in?"

    "Ji Yuan! Where is your martial honor? Or are you a chicken? Come and fight with us!" Yin Xiong was also shouting.

    The Sagess Meiughed. "Don''t be too hard on them, alright? We only want Ji Yuan. If the four of you are willing to surrender him then we will promise to let the rest of you go. How about it? If you are able to help us to get Ji Yuan then I will promise you that the Evil Cultivation Pce will be your allies in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes to look at Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin. "Don''t believe them. We''re on the same side¡­"

    Zhao Songjin interrupted quietly. "We didn''t say anything about betraying you. Why are you panicking?"

    Shui Xisi was smiling. "Maybe they are right. If we surrender Ji Yuan to them¡­"

    Shui Qingqing panicky said. "Don''t! Ji Yuan is a nice guy!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. He knew that Sisi was only putting on an act in front of everyone to show them that they were not together.

    Nice acting though, he thought.

    Shui Xisi smiled as she replied to Shui Qingqing, "Well, if my Pce Mistress says so then. I can only abide by your orders." In the eyes of everyone, Shui Xisi was the Envoy Sisi and not the Matriarch Pce Mistress as she had wanted to hide her identity from the others. That was why she was pretending to be submissive toward Shui Qingqing.

    Shui Qingqing was immediately delighted as she had thought that she had managed to convince her Matriarch Pce Mistress. She did not know that Shui Xisi was only faking her act.

    Ji Yuan whispered. "I think that they will not let us off so easily. So we need a n."

    Han Yuchi asked curiously, "You have a n?"

    Ji Yuan said gravely. "We need to change our battle setup."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan said, "Since Envoy Sisi is the strongest cultivator here, she ought to square off with that Sagess Mei."

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "You! Are you still a man?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I am actually a maiden."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Alright, back to our battle ns." Ji Yuan said as he looked at Shui Qingqing, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin. "I need the three of you to hold off Yin Xiong while I take care of Yin Wei¡­"

    "No! I will take care of Yin Wei myself!" Zhao Songjin insisted.<sub> </sub>

    "Same here." Han Yuchi said firmly. "Why don''t you take care of Yin Xiong while we take care of Yin Wei instead?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. All these maidens just did not want to co-operate with him¡­

    "The reason why I am putting you against Yin Xiong isn''t because I''m expecting the three of you to kill him. Just hold him off while I fight with Yin Wei so I can kill him. Even if I put the three of you as a group, you won''t be able to kill him. Did you see how he is able to evade my attacks earlier? He is a super opponent and above your league to handle."

    Zhao Songjin gasped softly. "You want to kill Yin Wei? Why?! You have a feud with him?"

    Ji Yuan growled. "I have my own reasons for doing so. I don''t need to exin to you." He was trying to kill Yin Wei for Little Princess or at the very least, wounded Yin Wei so that he won''t be able to be a threat to her.

    Zhao Songjin was suddenly looking at Ji Yuan in a different light and there was an invisible flush on her countenance. She was silently thinking; it isn''t a secret that I have to marry whoever is able to kill Yin Wei. Is he trying to kill Yin Wei because he is interested in me?"

    She had this conclusion because she is the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the Celestial Orthodox Sect is one of the seven major orthodox ns with considerable resources. Therefore for political reasons or personal reasons, she is actually a highly sought cultivation partner.

    All of a sudden there was a stir in her once dead heart as she looked at Ji Yuan. Actually he isn''t that bad looking and is a notch better than Jin Yilong. Moreover he is a more capable fighter and cultivator than Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong. His only minus was, he was dead poor unlike Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong.

    "So, is everyone agreeable to the new battle tactics?" Ji Yuan said impatiently.

    Zhao Songjin averted her eyes shyly, "Up to you!"

    Shui Xisi smiled. "I will be fighting against that Sagess Mei who has a celestial sword. What if I am hurt?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Sisi, this isn''t the time to joke¡­

    "You have an immortal sword while your opponent only has a half-step celestial sword. Clearly you have an advantage here¡­" Ji Yuan growled.

    "Maybe my opponent has a secret trump card that we do not know?" Shui Xisi smiled.

    "Well, good luck to you then." Ji Yuan began to ignore her.

    Shui Qingqing was watching their conversations intently and she was thinking. "It''s no wonder why my Matriarch Pce Mistress did not like Ji Yuan at all. Now I''ve finally know why. He is so rude to her and even gives her orders. s, I wish that Ji Yuan will be able to get into her good books¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a shout from above them. "Ji Yuan! Are you a chicken? You are really a beardless chicken!" It was Yin Wei and he was taunting him.

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily and his undying fighting spirit was aroused by the insults that were heaped by Yin Wei.

    Shui Xisi who was eager to fight back so she asked impatiently, "We will retaliate back now?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head. "Not yet. Currently we are at a disadvantage below and we don''t know if there is an ambush above. Therefore we need to check their positions first."

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly. "Do we have to go through all these troubles? Just charge."

    "Yea and get killed? No way!" Ji Yuan shook his head with a bitter look at Shui Xisi. "We need a n."

    Actually Ji Yuan always had a n in whatever little things that he did. When he had sessfully breakthrough to the seventh realm level, his n was to regrow his beard.

    When he had learn that the Emperor Hall Sect was oppressing his Orthodox Sword Sect, he had already formed a n to infiltrate the Emperor Hall Sect. To Fairy Ye Chengxi and to the others who did not know him well, it appeared that he did not have a n and was even foolhardy to challenge the powerful Emperor Hall Sect alone.

    But they did not know that Ji Yuan actually had a heart of a lion and he was fearless in his tenacity.

    Although he is lecherous and liked Jiajia but he had resisted the temptations to acknowledge her when he had learnt that she was the Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect even though she was his ex-girlfriend.

    If he was not cautious, he would have lost his life many times over in the treacherous fraternity of the cultivators.

    But at the same time, he had the heart of a lion and he was never shy from seeking trouble for his enemies.

    To the four elders of the Emperor Hall Sect and to the others, he was a low level cultivator that were stupid enough to walk into a tiger''s den and he would ultimately pay the price for it. But to Ji Yuan, he was like taking a calcted walk and he was undeterred by dangers.

    That was why he had always told Fairy Ye Chengxi, "If you have never tried, how do you know?"

    Therefore he did not think that he would be in serious danger while he was at the Emperor Hall Sect even though all four of the elders were all stronger than him, at least stronger than him until he had regained his profound strength fully.

    However at that time he already had the recovery rate of a half-step saint. Even if he could not outfight them, he could run away anytime he wanted.

    Most of the time his tenacity would see him through his ns.

    Well, most of the time. He did not know at that time Jiajia and Qianxue had studied him so well that they had long recognized him. There is a saying, knowing your enemy is half the battle already won. It was originally their ruse to nail him and to meet him. That was why his tenacity had failed in front of them because they were all focusing their attention on him.

    However, they actually did not have any bad intentions for him.

    But because Ji Yuan was super cautious that he may have offended Xue Qianxue by ident that he immediately took the steps to protect himself and his Orthodox Sword Sect. After all, anyone that had dropped into Xue Qianxue''s bath tub and touched her boobs would also think they would be dead next.

    And he had even touched Ling Feiyue''s boobs thinking she was a man.

    Next, he had even watched a secret duel between Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, hence breaking the martial protocols at that time and that was another death knell to him.

    He had always been lucky but somehow, he had run into a series of bad luck ever since he had met Jiajia, Qianxue and Feiyue.

    That was why his cautious part refused to acknowledge Jiajia until he had found out what her intentions were. He was actually not stupid enough to trust herpletely although one part of him was trying to plead for Jiajia''s innocent. And of course he wanted to appear in front of Jiajia with his beautiful beard as well but that was another part of the story.

    Ji Yuan repeated. "We need a n first. And we need to know their positions first."

    Shui Xisi giggled. "How are you going to know their positions?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he called out. "Xiang Li. I need you!"

    Immediately a spirit entity had hovered around Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle. "Big Brother, I am here!"

    When Shui Qingqing, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin saw Xiang Li, they were quite startled that Ji Yuan actually had a sentient spirit entity!

    Han Yuchi was stammering. "You¡­actually have a sentient spirit entity?!"

    Spirit entities are rare enough. Sentient spirit entities are as rare as celestial swords!

    Not even Jiajia or Sisi have a sentient spirit entity!

    Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li, "Go and help me to check on their positions so that we can n our next move."

    Xiang Li giggled and she immediately vanished silently up the mountains.

    Han Yuchi turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Is that really a spirit entity?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "What do you mean? Of course Xiang Li is. Can''t you see?"

    Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin exchanged a weak smile before Han Yuchi continued. "Spirit entities are part of the cultivators'' soul sea and can be manifested by the profound animus of the cultivator. There are no spirit entities that can fly away from the cultivator because there are no cultivators with a profound animus that have twice the length of an arm. In short, you can''t extend your soul sea away from your main body."

    Shui Xisi was also looking at Ji Yuan, "She is right. Did you just send Xiang Li to do the scouting for you?"

    Ji Yuan growled. "You mean it isn''t possible?"

    Zhao Songjin muttered. "Of course it isn''t possible and it is in fact impossible. Even the spirit entity of our Sacred Maiden Profound Art is just hovering above us and is more impressive than most of the other spirit entities. But we can''t send it out like this. Spirit entities are part of the profound animus to empower the profound strength of the cultivator through auras. That is how spirit entities work."

    Shui Qingqing was nodding quietly too. "Yes, no one can send spirit entity in this manner."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately as he said bitterly to everyone. "Come on. It sounds like I am the stupid one for not knowing this. Do you think that I am the all-knowing MC in many cultivation fake stories that get all my knowledge from the air? I wish I can but this isn''t my forte. I am only a¡­"

    "A poor and uncouth cultivator plus a sword cultivator from the Five Heavens Peaks." Shui Xisi giggled as she interrupted.

    Ji Yuanughed proudly. "Precisely."

    Shui Qingqing was sighing sadly. My Matriarch Pce Mistress really did not like Ji Yuan at all and she is poking fun at him for his background¡­

    She did not know that Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan were only teasing each other and Ji Yuan did not have any inferiorplex. He was actually quite proud that he was from the Five Heavens Peaks because without his old master that trained him in that ce, he would not have be a Sword Saint and what he was today.

    Ji Yuan was a sword cultivator. There were thousands of cultivation methods and knowledge in the Celestial Realm and it was impossible to study all of it. Moreover it was so hard to obtain even a single spirit entity that most cultivators would never do any research on it.

 Chapter 197 Unrest In The Mountains (3)

    Above the deste mists, Yin Wei, Yin Xiong and the Sagess Mei were staring and probing the deste mists below for the profound signatures of their opponents.

    Yin Wei and Yin Xiong had taken some profound pills as an aid to recovery their exhausted profound strength as they scanned the vast deste mists below the mountains.

    Yin Wei turned to ask Yin Xiong, "Are you alright?"

    Yin Xiong nodded slowly. "That bitch is really strong. Luckily she has not divine harmonized with her immortal-step divine sword yet. To think that the Water Melody Pce will possess an immortal-step divine sword."

    Then he wasughed as he turned to say to the Sagess Mei. "It seems that Lady Luck really favor us tonight. Soon we will obtain our hands on two immortal-step divine swords. The Evil Cultivation Master will surely be pleased with us this time. We may have lost one celestial-step divine sword but we shall gain two immortal-step divine swords in return. We ought to celebrate after this."

    The Sagess Mei inhaled deeply. "Don''t press your luck with that Shui Sisi first. We shall focus on Ji Yuan and Han Yuchi instead."

    Yin Xiong, Yin Wei: ???

    Yin Xiong smiled. "Why are we giving up such a good opportunity toy our hands on one more immortal sword?"

    The Sagess Mei hummed coldly. "Do as I have said."

    Yin Xiong grumbled back, "Alright. You''re the boss."

    The Sagess Mei did not want to exin to Yin Xiong that the immortal sword in Shui Sisi''s hands belonged to a great goddess. Obtaining this immortal sword would mean that the righteous immortals would be able to track them down to their secret base and that was something that she was afraid of happening; the immortal sword of the Great Goddess Alice will be nothing but trouble for them.

    Yin Xiong and Yin Wei had no idea that the upper echelons of the Evil Cultivation Pce were all deste immortals in the guise of the celestial cultivators.

    The Sagess Mei asked, "So have the two of you regain your profound strength?"

    Yin Wei replied, "More or less."

    Yin Xiong was smiling, "While they are below the deste mists, they won''t be able to regain their profound strength except if they are using profound pills. We have all the advantage now."

    Yin Wei nodded. "Profound pills are best used if the cultivator is able to cultivate at the same time. We have really forced them to be on the defensive now."

    That was the reason why they were waiting above the deste mists; they were trying to regain their profound strength for the next round of battle.

    Yin Xiong looked at the Sagess Mei. "Do you need some profound pills from us?"

    The Sagess Mei replied coolly, "No need. I have already regained my profound strength."

    Yin Xiong and Yin Wei were startled. Obviously the Sagess Mei was the more aggressive earlier and she had expended more profound strength than any one of them. Without taking any profound pills, how was it possible for her to regain her profound strength?

    They did not know that the Sagess Mei is actually an eighth realm immortal cultivator and her recovery rate was three times as astonishing as them. The disparity between her and a seventh realm great saint were vast and even if she did not cultivate, her profound strength would recover automatically.

    Yin Wei was astonished as he stared at the beautiful form of the Sagess Mei before he asked. "Now that we are now in our tip-top condition, so shall we hide here or attack them below?"

    The Sagess Mei lit a slow smile. "We will ambush here first. This is the perfect ambush spot and it is the only way that they cane up here. Remember that our target is Ji Yuan. If the otherse up first, don''t show yourself first. Some of them may be unnerved and may try to breakthrough to their current impasse. Wait for Ji Yuan."

    This strategy was sound. The less cultivators around Ji Yuan, the easier it was for them to corner Ji Yuan and to y him.

    She added with a soft chuckle. "While they are below, their profound strength will be drained by the deste mists. I don''t believe that they will hide forever down there. The longer that they hide down there, the more advantageous it will be for us."

    She did not mention that there was another consideration why they were waiting up here. It was because their opponents had two immortal swords and they were afraid that they may be ambushed the instant that they had entered the deste mists. But it was something that the three of them perfectly understands.

    Yin Xiong frowned. "I don''t understand. Why Ji Yuan? You mean we are letting the rest of them go just like this?"

    The Sagess Mei answered. "Ji Yuan is now our biggest threat. Therefore he must die."

    There was a conclusion by the Evil Cultivation Master that Ji Yuan may have found the mythical True Goddess'' Tear and had used the creation powers of the True Goddess'' Tear. Therefore Ji Yuan must die and his soul sea examined.

    Ji Yuan was now at the top of the highest priority by the Evil Cultivation Pce to be hunted, way above Xue Qianxue and Little Princess.

    Unknown to them, Xiang Li was quietly listening in to them before she panicky hovered into the deste mists again.

    -

    -

    -

    After Xiang Li had gone for a while, Han Yuchi had to look at Shui Xisi with a curious look. "Actually if I''m not wrong, you''re not Envoy Sisi. Am I right?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "What do you mean?"

    Han Yuchi sighed softly. "You have an immortal sword in your hand. This is far too precious to be in the hands of any elder or special envoy. Other than Ji Yuan, you''re only the second person that I know that have an immortal-step divine sword. If you''re not the Matriarch Pce Mistress yourself, I really don''t know who you are."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She did not expect that her cover would be blown up so fast. When she saw that Shui Qingqing was being attacked by Yin Xiong a peaked great saint, she had panicky unsheathed her most powerful sword to defend her.

    The intrigues of the Deste Celestial Fraternity were many and Han Yuchi was actually quite an experienced yer. It was all too strange to her that a special envoy would have an immortal sword.

    An immortal sword will definitely be a heritage treasure of the sect and it will not be given to any elder or special envoy.

    That was Han Yuchi''s basis in questioning Shui Xisi''s identity.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he tried very hard to suppress hisughter.<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "Since you have already guessed my identity, I have no wish to hide anymore. I''m indeed the Matriarch Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce Shui Xisi!"

    Han Yuchi humbly said. "I thank you for taking care of Qingqing. Rest assures that we won''t reveal who you are."

    Shui Xisi returned a casual smile. "It isn''t a big deal for these two things." She did not care for her secret identity anymore because her Sister Feifei had helped her to win over Ji Yuan to her side. In the first ce, she had tried to unt off her beauty in front of the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity because she had wanted to make Ji Yuan envious that she had so many suitors and had a reputation.

    Little did she know that she had actually made a good impression with Ji Yuan on their first meeting and that Ji Yuan had actually liked her fiery nature.

    Ever since Ji Yuan had met her, he had been secretly thinking of spanking her butt and wondered if they were able to meet again.

    At that time it was just his wish list because he did not know that she was actually Jiajia''s sister and he had doubted that he would meet her anytime soon.

    Zhao Songjin was startled as she looked at Shui Xisi, "You''re really the Matriarch Pce Mistress?"

    Shui Xisi looked extremely young and no more than eighteen. That was only because she had ceased to age at the prime of her beauty.

    The Water Melody Pce has a fearsome reputation in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and is one of the three heretic pces. No one wants to mess around with the mysterious Water Melody Pce.

    "You''re really strong." Zhao Songjin quickly concluded quietly. Earlier, when they had all taken a beating from thebined attacks of the Yin Wei, Yin Xiong and the Sagess Mei, it was Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan that had covered them or else they would not be able to escape with such light injuries.

    But even then, it was difficult for Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan to fight off three peaked great saints at the same time and that was why they were forced to retreat and to regroup again.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "The fight earlier is aplete disaster because we are all fighting our own battles. We have Sisi and Qingqing pairing off to fight a single Yin Xiong. This ispletely unnecessary¡­"

    Shui Xisi protested immediately. "With Qingqing help, given a little more time, we may be able to ovee Yin Xiong soon. But it is your sides there that are causing my side troubles. Yin Wei and the Sagess Mei kept interfering in our battle earlier."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "That is why we need to stick to our new battle tactics."

    Then he looked at Shui Xisi and inhaled heavily. "You must be careful against the Sagess Mei. She is really strong."

    The reason why he was warning her solemnly so was because he had once fought with the Sagess Alyssa and he was suddenly overwhelmed by her sudden surge of absurd profound power. Until today he could not understand why. Little did he know that Sagess Alyssa had used her eighth ream profound strength against him.

    If it was not for Shui Qingqing that had used her divine profound art on him to purge out the invasive profound energies, he would have sustained severe internal injuries.

    Therefore he was quite anxious for Shui Xisi so he emphasized. "Be wary of her trump card. I feel that she isn''t even doing her best when she is fighting me." He had purposely exaggerated it a little so that Shui Xisi would not underestimate her opponent.

    Shui Xisi giggled. "Maybe it is because you''re weaker than me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li had suddenly shed down from above as she said excitingly, "Big Brother! I have returned!"

    Ji Yuan was d that Xiang Li had returned so quickly. "You got their positions?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "Yea. I know where they are and I even know that they are nning to ambush you. They are actually nning to attack you and allowed the rest to escape."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes immediately. "What a vicious n¡­" If Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi seized this opportunity to escape then he would surely be outnumbered¡­

    Zhao Songjin said quietly. "Since they are after you, why don''t you go up first? Then we will support you ording. I don''t know if you trust me or not but I definitely won''t run away."

    Han Yuchi nodded. "I will also fight to the death."

    Shui Qingqing was quite startled as she asked. "You have a feud with Yin Wei?"

    Han Yuchi turned to say to her. "Qingqing, our feud is your feud as well. So you must help us to kill him."

    Shui Qingqing nodded with a perplexed look. "Alright then¡­"

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi also had a perplexed look and they were wondering what their feud was.

    But Ji Yuan did not want to dwell upon it as he stood up. "We''re losing our profound strength in this ce. It is time for us to take action now!"

    Shui Xisi giggled. "Actually how confident are you in killing Yin Wei?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly but he did not reply her. It was because he was actually unsure if he was able to do so.

    "Sisi, please be careful. Your opponent seems to be capable of performing two actions at the same time." That was all that he could say to her for the time being.

    "Xiang Li, what are their positions?"

    Xiang Li quickly draw on the t and even the surrounding cliffs as he proimed with great delight. "They are here, there and here!"

    Shui Qingqing, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were stunned when Xiang Li had suddenly materialized her hand to draw with great expertise.

    But before they could even ask Ji Yuan why his spirit entity had a physical form, Ji Yuan had already unsheathed his divine sword as he looked up the thick deste mist above him. "It is time for our fight back time! I shall spearhead the attack while the rest of you support me."

    He added solemnly. "One hundred blinks of an eye. We attack with everything that we got and pray."

    Then he took a look at Shui Xisi. "Erm, do you mind lending me one recovery profound pill?"

    "Sure." Shui Xisi replied nonchntly. "That will be five hundred high grade spirit stones for my fifth rank recovery pill."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 198 Unrest In The Mountains (4)

    Ji Yuan was the first to charge up of the deste mists; his enemies were all waiting for him and he knew it; the minute that he had unsheathed his divine sword, all his enemies had locked their divine sense on him.

    And Ji Yuan had immediately locked his divine sense on Yin Wei as well!

    The Sagess Mei had reacted faster than Yin Wei and she had charged to engage Ji Yuan but all of a sudden Shui Xisi had popped out of the deste mists and had engaged her in a close melee.

    As for Yin Xiong, just as he was about to attack Ji Yuan, there were three profound sword arts that were flying toward him and two of the profound sword arts were the Golden Maiden shes of the Beautiful Maiden Swordy.

    As there were dozens of profound sword energies that were shing against him, he was forced to call off his attack from Ji Yuan and to focus his attention on the neers.

    In a blink of an eye, an astonished Yin Xiong was being surrounded by Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing at the same time.

    Yin Xiong dared not be careless as he quickly retaliated against them. Among the three of them, only Han Yuchi was a great saintess. Although her profound strength and power was beneath him but he was now forced to divert his profound strength against two other saint cultivators. This had the effect of causing him unable to use his full profound strength.

    And that was what Han Yuchi, Songjin and Shui Qingqing had wanted. They were all going to use all their profound strength in a relentless attack to buy 100 blinks of an eye for Ji Yuan.

    Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi did not know why they were trusting Ji Yuan with their lives and were even heeding his instructions but somehow, they just believed in him.

    As for Shui Qingqing, she did not think much about it. Since her Matriarch Pce Mistress was willing to go along with Ji Yuan''s ns, there was no reason why she should not as well.

    Ji Yuan was now shouting angrily at Yin Wei. "Today will be your demise!" For the sake of Little Princess and Jiajia, Yin Wei and the Evil Cultivation Pce must be banished for good.

    Yin Weiughed, "I should be the one that is saying this!"

    Ji Yuan and Yin Wei were now exchanging their strong sword strokes against each other and their melee ran thunderously in the quiet mountains!

    This was the very first time that Ji Yuan was properly fighting Yin Wei and he was astonished by his opponent''s profound strength and power. Even though he had a powerful immortal-step divine sword in his hands, Yin Wei was able to match his profound power while maintaining his formidable profound defenses.

    Yin Wei''s dark profound energy sword had shed with Ji Yuan''s Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon immediately and the two forces collided thunderously against each other.

    Yin Wei shouted. "Ji Yuan, I believe that your profound strength will soon be finished. Why don''t you give up your struggle against me? You have only one trump card and that trump card is never going to hit a fast moving target like me¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had unleashed another Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon immediately after hisst attack.

    Yin Wei was startled as he lifted himself up to evade the second attack. "Heh! Is that all you can manage? You are only wasting your profound strength¡­" At the same time, he was smiling. It was because the perfect time to counter-attack was when an opponent had expended all their profound strength into making an attack. For a sword cultivator like Ji Yuan, he would almost be in a defenseless state.

    When Ji Yuan saw that Yin Wei was about to evade his second profound sword art, he forced through his profound strength again and mustered his sword spirit to unleash a much more powerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that sped at twice the speed of his earlier two Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Yin Wei waspletely stunned that Ji Yuan was capable of performing three actions in such a short span of time. He immediately braced himself to receive the third Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light and he was sent crashing onto the cliff with a loud and thunderous impact that shook the mountains!

    The Sagess Mei and Yin Xiong were both gasping with shock. "Yin Wei!"

    But Yin Weiughed heartily as he picked himself his trembling body up. "Don''t worry, I am unhurt. This doesn''t even hurt at all. My profound defense is stronger than his profound sword art¡­"

    All of a sudden he saw that Ji Yuan had already jumped on top of a cliff that was facing him and he was holding his divine sword with both hands. "Heh! Why don''t you eat my Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon now!"

    When he had finished speaking, he had unleashed a streak of long beam of white light that was condensed with profound energies that beamed toward Yin Wei!

    Yin Wei hummed coldly as he jumped up to the cliff immediately, "So you have finally decided to use yourst trump card. If I am not wrong, you can only use it onest time and after that you will have exhausted all your profound strength¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "But before that, look at where you are now!"

    All of a sudden Yin Wei saw that he was between two cliffs. There seemed to be nothing wrong with it. In fact, the cliffs would provide him with cover to scale up even faster to evade Ji Yuan''s sword energies attack.

    But of a sudden Ji Yuan had zapped his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to the top of the two cliffs as he sent thousands of rocks and boulders to fall onto Yin Wei.

    Yin Wei was startled as he had suddenly realized what Ji Yuan was up to and he was forced to increase his profound defense to shield him from the boulders that weighed several tons but the some of the boulders were really too heavy and he was sent crashing toward the ground.

    Ji Yuan seized thest remnants of his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to zap onto Yin Wei and immediately Yin Wei was yelling with great agony as he crashed onto the ground!

    Right from the very start, Ji Yuan had already known the terrain that his opponents were at; it was all thanks to Xiang Li''s crude drawing. Therefore he made ast minute improvised n to trap Yin Wei''s between the two cliffs.

    Knowing that Yin Wei would surely make use of the cliffs to evade his attacks, Ji Yuan had made use of it to attack the top of the cliffs instead. These boulders can weight tons and can easily crash any cultivators.

    Ji Yuan could not resist whistling. "You just got attacked by tens of peaked seventh realm great rocks. Hope you will never underestimate any rocks in the future."

    The Sagess Mei was greatly rmed and she had never expected Yin Wei would be defeated in such a short time. Therefore she quickly used her most powerful profound power art to fling Shui Xisi off her before she sped to where Yin Wei was.

    She gasped when she saw that Yin Wei only had his upper body remaining.

    Greatly rmed, she quickly picked up Yin Wei''s half remaining body and sped up the cliff.

    When Yin Xiong saw that the Sagess Mei had fled with Yin Wei, he was startled and he too, turned his back away immediately.

    As Shui Qingqing, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were all greatly exhausted from their short fight with Yin Xiong, they did not pursue.

    Zhao Songjin gasped and she was flustered. "He has killed Yin Wei?!"

    Instead they had all rushed to support Ji Yuan who could barely stand.

    Shui Xisi giggled as she asked Ji Yuan. "Nice one. Can you still stand?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly. "Do you want to carry me to the settlement? I barely have the strength now."<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes andughed. "You are a great saint. How can you be so shameless as to ask a maiden to carry you? You can cultivate here until you have your strength back. Goodbye!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Master Ji Yuan¡­" Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin had suddenly kneeled in front of him as they addressed him politely. "Thank you for helping us to kill Yin Wei. We are in your debts."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "We are fighting on the same side. There is no need to thank me at all. Moreover, Yin Wei may not necessary be dead yet."

    Zhao Songjin smiled coldly, "Judging from his injuries, even if he isn''t dead, his cultivation strength will surely suffer as a result. He won''t even be a match for an ordinary saint in the future."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Except for a sword cultivator."

    Zhao Songjin smiled beautiful to him, "But he is defeated this time round by a sword cultivator."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "I am merely lucky this time. I actually don''t have much profound strength left. They actually saw through my weaknesses."

    Zhao Songjin nodded before she said with a flushed look. "I wonder if we can invite Master Ji Yuan to visit us at the camp of the Celestial Orthodox Sect as our honorable guest?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he said ufortably. "Maybe next time."

    Zhao Songjin gasped softly. "Why?"

    Ji Yuan replied. "My two consorts Qianxue and Little Princess won''t be too pleased if I go to your camp."

    Zhao Songjin lowered her head as she said softly. "I know that they won''t forgive me for what I have done to them¡­"

    Then she turned to ask Ji Yuan, "Do you think we can be friends?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course we can be friends."

    Zhao Songjin had her hope up as she asked with some eagerness. "Really?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Of course we can. We can be friends with benefits. Haha."

    Zhao Songjin was rendered speechless by Ji Yuan but she was soonughing softly. "Indeed. We can be friends with benefits."

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi. "Please get up. I am only an unruly cultivator and I don''t deserve to be called a respectable master. We just have amon goal, that''s all."

    Slowly, Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi were helped by Ji Yuan off the ground.

    It pained Shui Qingqing to see her mother and sister being so humble toward Ji Yuan so she quickly said to him. "You''re a great hero now. How can you say such things as friends with benefits? You ought to make sincere friends out of others."

    Even Xiang Li was saying in his soul sea, "Yea! Maiden Qingqing is right! Friends do not talk about benefits!"

    But Ji Yuan wasughing in his soul sea. "Xiang Li, it is too dangerous to start a romance with this beautiful Songjin. That is why I must keep her off my doors."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Why? She is a great beauty, right?"

    Zhao Songjin was actually renowned as the top ten beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he exined. "Even though Zhao Songjin is a great beauty and I can see that she seems much better than in the past now but I''m really not interested in her."

    Xiang Liughed, "But I can see that she is really very interested in you. She has been looking at you with great interest all this while."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Don''t remind me this about this. Do you know that I have missed out a great opportunity to bang Sisi tonight¡­"

    His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Shui Xisi as she said to Shui Qingqing. "It is time for us to return to our camp. It is not safe in these mountains."

    "Hey!" Ji Yuan interrupted her. "What about me?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "You can roll down the mountains yourself. Farewell! Qingqing,e."

    Shui Qingqing reluctantly took a second nce at Ji Yuan before she left with Shui Xisi.

    Zhao Songjin immediately said to Ji Yuan, "I can give you a helping hand."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Don''t worry. I can cultivate here for a while."

    Zhao Songjin: ¡­

    It was not because Ji Yuan was too dense to see Zhao Songjin''s interest in him. One must know that Ji Yuan has a beautiful face, beard or no beard and that he was used to be surrounded by many beautiful maidens. But he had rarely taken a special interest except for a few.

    He was well aware that Zhao Songjin had said that whoever that can kill Yin Wei for her, she will promise herself to marry him. But this was something that he did not want to.

    He was even reluctant to take Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan as his consorts in the past even though they were great beauties. There was no taboo against unchaste maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and people could freely choose their cultivation partners so that was not the main reason he was pretending not to see Zhao Songjin''s interest in him. Likewise, he was pretending not to see Shui Qingqing''s interest in him as well.

    This was the difference between Ji Yuan and Jin Yilong. Jin Yilong likes all pretty faces where else Ji Yuan has a more romantic notions about his cultivation partners.

    Zhao Songjin rolled her eyes and said silently. "I know what kind of a man you are. You may not show any interest in me right now but once we have developed a rtionship with each other, you won''t keep me at bay. Therefore I will focus all my goals into winning your heart¡­"

    Han Yuchi smiled as she whispered to her. "He will make a fine son-inw." She was very pleased that Zhao Songjin''s dead eyes were now stirring with a passion for life again.

 Chapter 199 The Great Betrayal By Xiang Li

    When Ji Yuan had returned to the Spirit Blue Moon Sect in the dead of the night and was soundly asleep, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng had used a secret code to summon Xiang Li to their tent.

    "So Xiang Li, where have Ji Yuan been whole night? He lookedpletely exhausted when he had returned.  Did he do anything funny to Jiajia or Sisi?" Ling Feiyue asked her.

    Xiang Li giggled. "Nope, he did not!"

    Even if Ji Yuan did, she would not tell them because she was not supposed to be visible when Ji Yuan was doing banging with all the other maidens except for Bai Qianfeng of course who knew her secret.

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes as she muttered, "I hope you''re telling the truth."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Spirit entities never lie, remember!"

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Of course we believe in our Xiang Li. So what happens to Ji Yuan? Why is he so exhausted?"

    Xiang Li quickly cooked up an excuse for Ji Yuan. "Big brother is escorting Maiden Sisi back to her camp when they saw Yin Wei attacking Maiden Songjin so he stepped in to help."

    Little Princess was startled. "In the settlement? Impossible¡­"

    Xiang Li immediately knew that she had made a blunder so she quickly said. "Far away from the settlement. Maiden Sisi says she has another camp elsewhere¡­"

    Little Princess had a look of suspicion as she looked at Xiang Li, "But why will Zhao Songjin be there?"

    "I don''t know." Xiang Li made a weak excuse. Then she had an idea as she giggled. "Maiden Qingqing is with Maiden Songjin and Lady Yuchi too. It seems that Maiden Qingqing is Maiden Songjin''s sister."

    "Qingqing? Who is she?" Xue Qianxue asked curiously.

    Xiang Liughed. "She is the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce!"

    Ling Feiyue was startled. "This looks a littleplex. Can you exin from the start?"

    All four of the maidens were looking curiously at one another. First it was the Matriarch Pce Mistress Shui Xisi and now it was the Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing¡­

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were looking awkwardly at each other; it was because they knew that Ji Yuan had a hand with Shui Xisi and even Shui Tianshui. Now Xiang Li was telling them that Ji Yuan was also with Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin?

    Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were the most uneasy as they did not want to have anything to do with Zhao Songjin as she had betrayed them before.

    They almost asked at the same time in the same apprehensive manner. "Ji Yuan likes her?"

    Xiang Li giggled before answering. "Lady Yuchi really is charming too¡­"

    Xue Qianxue disyed a not so cute look but she still managed to look super adorable. "Hmph! We''re talking about Zhao Songjin!"

    Xiang Liughed. "She is super sexy!"

    Xue Qianxue and Little Princess as well as the Ling Feiyue almost wanted to bang heads; they were beginning to wonder how Ji Yuan was able tomunicate with Xiang Li so well.

    Only Bai Qianfeng was smiling weakly. During the Dream Trial, she already had an idea what Xiang Li was usually like. When Ji Yuan was banging his women, Xiang Li took great pleasure as though she was the one banging them.

    Ji Yuan''s happiness was Xiang Li as well. The two of them were inseparable and often shoot each other openly. How on earth did the two of them get along so well is something that is beyond Bai Qianfeng ability to understand fully.

    However Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess had no intention to understand Xiang Li as well as Ji Yuan and instead they were more interested in tricking Xiang Li to spill out all of Ji Yuan''s secrets.

    Ling Feiyue began to flirt with Xiang Li as she lit a beautiful smile. "Beautiful Xiang Li, we know you won''t lie, right? Let me ask you one by one and you will answer us one by one, alright?"

    "Alright!" Xiang Li chuckled.

    "Good!" Ling Feiyue replied with a soft chuckle.

    Then she asked. "Did Ji Yuan undress Jiajia? As in, take off her clothes?"

    Little Princess suddenly interrupted with an anxious expression. "Is this a good idea to ask Xiang Li about this? She is quite innocent."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "I am trying my best to describe the situation."

    Xue Qianxue replied. "I think we are corrupting Xiang Li¡­"

    They naturally did not know that Xiang Li was already an expert.

    Ling Feiyue quickly turned her face toward Xiang Li to ask. "Did he undress Jiajia?"

    Xiang Li shook her head, "No, never!"

    Ling Feiyue smiled. "How about Shui Xisi?"

    "Never!"

    Ling Feiyue asked again. "How about Zhao Songjin?"

    This time Xiang Li was giggling. "I don''t know!"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were startled. "Howe you don''t know?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "Big Brother had sent me to scout for enemy''s position for a while so I don''t know what happen when they were alone!"<sub> </sub>

    "They were alone?!" All three maidens were shocked beyond words.

    Actually they did not ask Xiang Li about the entire situation but even if they did, it was difficult to get a proper answer from Xiang Li because Xiang Li''s mind workedpletely different from them.

    How could Ji Yuan have any affairs when Zhao Songjin, Han Yuchi, Shui Qingqing and Shui Xisi were around him at the same time?

    However the three maidens were too overwhelmed by the fact that Xiang Li could not lie and she had told them that Ji Yuan was alone with Zhao Songjin that they just assumed that Ji Yuan had an opportunity to be alone with Zhao Songjin.

    Forget about Shui Xisi. Zhao Songjin is now their new threat!

    Xue Qianxue hummed coldly, "Ji Yuan is so lecherous that he even tries to bed Zhao Songjin! This is too much!"

    Little Princess nodded unhappily. "Of all the maidens, he has to fall under Zhao Songjin''s mesmerizing charm. This is too much."

    Xue Qianxue turned angrily to say to Xiang Li. "You know. You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words. That is what Ji Yuan always say. So Xiang Li, please tell us if they are really friends?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, unmindful that everyone seemed to be upset. To her, their angry and flustered expressions were really so beautiful. "Of course they are!"

    Little Princess interrupted, "Did Ji Yuan say so himself?"

    "Of course! Big Brother says he and Maiden Songjin are friends with benefits!" Xiang Li chuckled as she recalled what Ji Yuan had told her.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Friends with benefits?!

    Then this mean that they had really bedded each other¡­

    This is too much!...

    Ling Feiyue raised her fists, "Ji Yuan is really too much this time. He already has so many great beauties next to him and he is still trying to flirt with the others."

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were rolling their eyes; they still have not told Ling Feiyue about her Aunt Ling Tianshui''s affair with Ji Yuan¡­

    In the end, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue ended up discussing over Ji Yuan''s misdeed with Zhao Songjin instead of his fight with Yin Wei and the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Bai Qianfeng tried to pretend not to care but there was an envious look in her eyes.

    Ji Yuan had a sudden sneeze in his makeshift bed as he muttered sleepily. "Dang! Who is discussing about me again¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    In a secret cave;

    Yin Wei was crying out in great agony as hey on a stone bed; he had virtually lost his lower body. If he was not quicker, he would have been killed by Ji Yuan.

    "Ji Yuan! I hate you!"

    His agony pains were so great that the entire cave was shaking with his anguish agonies and hatred for Ji Yuan.

    The Sagess Mei was alone with him as she said coolly to him. "Don''t worry you won''t die. Luckily you are a great saint. If you are a lesser saint, I can''t say the same. But you won''t be as before. Maybe you will end up being a useless toy."

    When Yin Wei heard the Sagess Mei, he began to cry out pitifully to her. "Lady Mei! You must help me. I can''t afford to lose any of my cultivation strength! I must take my vengeance against Ji Yuan!"

    "I know that you will surely have a way, am I right? Please help me¡­I beg of you¡­I will do anything you say if you are able to help me¡­"

    The Sagess Mei rolled her eyes before she lit a wry smile. "I do have a way but I am not sure if you are willing to try."

    Yin Wei said with trembling lips. "What¡­is¡­it? I will try¡­.anything¡­as long as I can¡­take my revenge against¡­Ji Yuan!"

    "I can merge the metamorph egg into your body. Not only will you grow stronger than ever before but you will also recover from your injuries fairly quickly. However there may be unintended consequences. If you lose control of yourself and metamorph into a deste monster then you will never be able to regain your human form again. I have stated the risks clearly so what do you say about it?" The Sagess Mei said nonchntly.

    "I¡­am willing¡­please help me...I can''t stand the pain¡­any longer¡­"

    The Sagess Mei hummed softly. "So is that what you really want?"

    Yin Wei cried aloud. "YES! That is what I¡­really want!"

    The Sagess Mei smiled as she took out a cor. "Then wear this cor. In the future, I will be your mistress. As your mistress, naturally I will help you."

    "You¡­are asking me to wear¡­a cor like a dog?" Yin Wei was startled. "And call you mistress?! What is the meaning¡­of this?"

    The Sagess Mei giggled softly. "It is not a dog cor but a ve cor. Dog or ve cor, does it matter? If you don''t want my help then I shall leave you here for the next few months. I am really busy and will be inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. When you need me, I won''t be around. Also I got to hurry to make a report to the Evil Cultivation Master¡­"

    "Wait¡­please¡­" Yin Wei stammered. "I will wear this¡­but you have to help me¡­"

    The Sagess Mei beamed with delight. "I will definitely help you, don''t worry. You will be part of my Super Metamorph Project and I will help you to be stronger than ever before. Ji Yuan can only dream about defeating you in the future!"

    Elsewhere, Ji Yuan was wondering why he had kept sneezing nonstop as he muttered to himself. "I can''t remember having so many enemies¡­"

 Chapter 200 Pride Comes Before Fall

    Three dayster, Ji Yuan finally opened his eyes with a dreamy smile. In his dreams, he was surrounded by all the maidens that he loved and he was really happy. They were all surrounding him as they toasted him and were all singing his praises.

    Jiajia, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng¡­

    Yuxian (Saintess Yuluo), Sisi, Wuwu, Baiyue and even Shui Tianshui¡­

    And then he was banging all of them for three days and nights¡­

    He was smiling delightfully at the thought that they must all be eagerly waiting for him to wake up from his deep slumber. After all, Xiang Li must have told them how he had beaten Yin Wei at his own game and he may have removed him as a potential threat.

    He had specially told Xiang Li to tell them the rough situation and waited for him to tell them his epic fight with Yin Wei.

    "Haha. Xiang Li, remember not to tell them about Sisi! Cover for me!"

    "Big Brother, I will!" Xiang Li had promised him.

    "Just tell them the rough details of my fight with the Evil Cultivation Pce and wait for me to tell them the details." Ji Yuanughed.

    "Why, Big Brother? I can''t tell them?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "That''s because you are not a good storyteller, haha! Tell them the sketchy details first. When I wake up, I will tell them everything in great detail about my great awesomeness. Haha."

    Ji Yuan was actually trying to inte his ego by over praising himself and to exaggerate the ounts. Naturally he could not let Xiang Li tell the true ountings. Therefore he wanted to be the one to tell all the maidens about how awesome he had been during his epic fight with Yin Wei.

    "Without my n, how can our victory be assured? I bet that even Xiang Li must be so impressed by me. Haha."

    As Ji Yuan got up, Xiang Li popped up next to him as she giggled excitingly. "Big Brother! You''re finally awake!"

    "Haha, yes. Do you miss me Xiang Li?"

    "I do! Very much!" Xiang Li replied with a flustered and eager look.

    "I miss you too. Haha." Ji Yuan casually said.

    Xiang Li was flushing as she averted her eyes. Big Brother is missing me¡­

    "Oh by the way, did you cover for me?" Ji Yuan asked.

    Xiang Li chuckled as she whispered. "Big Brother, don''t worry! I have your backsidepletely covered up. They didn''t know anything about Maiden Sisi. You didn''t know that they were questioning me about Maiden Sisi but I''ve managed to shake them all off!"

    "Wahh! Xiang Li, you are getting more and more impressive nowadays. Haha." Ji Yuan praised her. "Now it is time for me to impress them with my super awesome deeds."

    Xiang Li chucked nonstop, delighted with the praises that Ji Yuan was heaping upon her.

    "Return to my soul sea first. We don''t want anyone to see you. You are erm¡­will turn the hearts of men to depravity." Xiang Li was too endeavoring and sexual. It would be horrible for the eyes of lusty men if they were to see her. More importantly she was in her flimsy clothing...

    "Ok Big Brother!! *Chuckle*" In the next blink of an eye, Xiang Li had disappeared into Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    He did not ask Xiang Li about what the maidens thought about Zhao Songjin because he did not do anything funny to her and they were quite clean. He was more concerned about covering his tracks with Sisi.

    With a happy whistle, he had marched out of his tent as heughed jovially. "They must all be waiting to hear my epic tale and wondering how on earth did I manage to escape without an injury from the attacks of three peaked great saints¡­"

    "I''m betting that they are now gossiping about me. This is the first time that I do not mind their gossips. Haha. Like Jiajia had said, they are only gossiping about me because they love me!" Ji Yuan had a wry smile as he walked with great awesomeness around the camp.

    As he walked, he was thinking about how he hade to be with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. He heaved a soft sigh. If he had told them who he was at the very start or if they had told him that they knew who he was at the very start, they would never be together. Even if he knew that they had adted him but he would never reciprocate their feelings because to him, they were just his core prot¨¦g¨¦s and nothing else. He actually had a bottom line.

    But it all changed when he was at the Emperor Hall Sect. Sometimes fate is weird.

    "Yan''Er and Chengxi must be gossiping about me with the rest now. Well, this is the first time that I''m d that they are talking about me. They must be worshipping me now and my image in their heart must have increased ten folds." Ji Yuanughed softly.

    Xiang Li who had heard him in his soul seaughed as well. "That''s right, Big Brother! Everyone worships you!"

    Ji Yuanughed.

    Along the way around the camp, he saw many flushing female cultivators from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect giggling and looking shyly at him. Some of them were even golden celestials.

    To be adted by even the golden celestial made Ji Yuan very proud of himself; these female golden celestials all had a lofty attitude but Ji Yuan could see that they were now looking with interest at him.

    Many were even returning smiling greetings when they saw him.

    This was apletely different feeling when he was at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Even though he had the support of the patriarch elders but most of the prot¨¦g¨¦s were still unconvinced that a poor sword cultivator from the Five Heavens Peak would be apatible match for their Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue.

    Now he really felt that he was the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect was like his very own sect.

    "Haha. Xiang Li, did you see that? All the men and women are all adoring me now." Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    "That is because Big Brother is a great hero now. Hehe!" Xiang Li chuckled.

    "That''s right. I am a great hero now. Hoho." Today he really felt like a winner, especially after his victory over Yin Wei.

    Xiang Li began to ponder before saying, "But be careful Big Brother. I''ve heard that pridees before the fall."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Don''t badmouth me. This won''t happen to me. Firstly, I don''t have any pride and secondly, with my lightless swiftness skill, I can''t fall at all. Haha."

    Xiang Li chuckled jovially. "True, true! My Big Brother is never arrogant and is always so humble!"

    Ji Yuanughed heartily. "Xiang Li, you really made my day today. Haha."

    Then he saw Ling Tianshui at a distance but she quickly averted her eyes shyly and she was smiling. This caused Ji Yuan to smile as well. He was so happy to see Tianshui again and was wondering when he could bang her again.

    Ling Tianshui quickly put away her smiles as there were many prot¨¦g¨¦s around and walked unhurriedly to him to say. "You have a guest today. You may want to hurry up to take a look."

    "I have a guest? Who is he?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Ling Tianshui shed a smile. "I don''t want to spoil the surprise for you. Go and take a look yourself." With that Ling Tianshui and her group of escorts had left him.

    Ji Yuan was frowning immediately. "I can already guess who the guest is."

    Xiang Li asked curiously. "You know? I can''t guess it¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "That''s because I''m a genius. Who else can it be other than Sisi? She must be feeling so stingy over her five hundred high grade spirit stones and is here to ask for payments."

    "Woah! Big Brother is so smart, hehe!"

    "Of course I am. She must have already known that I will wake up today and is visiting me to check on my condition. It seems that she really cares for me. Haha. Come, Xiang Li! We got to hurry!"

    Xiang Liughed. "I should be the one that ought to ask you to hurry. You are walking so slowly."

    "Shut up, Xiang Li. Can''t you see that I am trying to maintain my cool image in front of my fans?"

    <o>,m When Ji Yuan arrived at the main tent of Ling Feiyue, he was quite startled that there were no gossip sounds.</o>

    "Howe they are so quiet? They are not gossiping about me today?!" Ji Yuan had a perplexed look as he walked toward the entrance of the tent. "Or they are all not around today? Maybe Qianxue are taking them to a hidden seclude spot to have a bath?"

    When he had entered the tent, he saw that everyone had gathered.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were around.

    Even Saintess Yuluo, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    They were all quiet and looking at a beautiful maiden in the middle of the tent and she was actually Zhao Songjin.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he saw that it was Zhao Songjin¡­

    It isn''t Sisi?

    He blinked his eyes as he looked at the speechless maidens and finally at Zhao Songjin. "Why are you here?"

    Zhao Songjin shed her hands to show Ji Yuan rows after rows of chests that were filled with high grade spirit stones and various profound treasures.

    He was stunned.

    Zhao Songjin smiled at him before saying politely. "This is all for you. Thank you for saving my life and that of my Matriarch Han Yuchi."

    Then she turned to smile at Xue Qianxue. "I am also here to abdicate my position as Sacred Maiden and is here to re-invite Qianxue to return to the Celestial Orthodox Sect to be the Sacred Maiden again."

    She took a look at Little Princess as she said gently. "I know that I have destroyed my friendship with you forever but I do hope that you can give me another chance to make amends."

    Ji Yuan continued to blink his eyes. "Erm. Isn''t this a little too much? I didn''t ask you to give me all these, am I right?"

    Zhao Songjin smiled. "Have you forgotten that we are friends with benefits?"

    When Ji Yuan heard her, heughed. "That is right! We are friends with benefits. Haha." By making this so obvious, Ji Yuan was sure that the other maidens would know that he had nothing to do with Zhao Songjin except for making use of each other.<sub> </sub>

    However little did he know that all the maidens were already thinking that he already had a rtionship with Zhao Songjin.

    Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and all the other maidens were gasping with shock. Earlier before Zhao Songjin hade, they were all gossiping whether Xiang Li was telling them the truth about Zhao Songjin and that they were really friends with benefits.

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye, Saintess Yuluo had been urguing with the other maidens that they had trusted Ji Yuanpletely. It was impossible for Ji Yuan to make friends with Zhao Songjin because of any benefits and they had trusted his martial honor.

    But now they too, were speechless when they had heard Ji Yuan confirming happily that he and Zhao Songjin were friends with benefits.

    Everyone had an ugly countenance on them as they all assumed that the two of them were in bed together and that was why Zhao Songjin was now sending so many gifts to Ji Yuan and to everyone.

    Ji Yuan who did not know that Xiang Li had identally told the maidens more things than she was not supposed to and had identally caused a misunderstanding to happen, began tough. "So what does everyone thinks about this?"

    Ling Feiyue folded her arms and said coolly. "I feel like killing you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Zhao Songjin lowered her head as she said humbly. "I really hope that Qianxue will considering back to the Celestial Orthodox Sect. We all need you."

    "Farewell." As she left the tent, she took a quick nce at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan continued to smile. "Well, isn''t this good news? My Qianxue is finally back as the head of the Celestial Orthodox Sect¡­"

    But Xue Qianxue had suddenly interrupted him. "I need to think over it first. But first, let me ask you. Why did you bed Zhao Songjin for? So you have killed Yin Wei now? And got her hands in marriage?"

    "Yea!" All the maidens were asking him one by one.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes: ???

    What is going on?

    The mood seems so weird?!

    Don''t they want to hear my epic fight with Yin Wei?

    Xiang Li chuckled as she suggested. "Maybe they only want to hear your epic bed fight with Maiden Songjin?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I''ve suddenly realized something. Did you say anything wrong to them while I was not around?"

    "Never Big Brother! I follow exactly what you have said!" Xiang Li pointed out proudly.

    "Did you say I was in bed with Zhao Songjin or not?"

    "Never! Of course I won''t. Did you?" Xiang Li asked him back curiously.

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan protested. He was now looking extremely confused.

    Ji Yuan turned to the maidens and said with a perplexed look. "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words. I have never bedded Zhao Songjin. Who told you so?"

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess said aloud at the same time. "Xiang Li did!"

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan was startled. "Xiang Li did?! What did she say?"

    "She says that you and Zhao Songjin are friends with benefits!"

    Ji Yuan suddenly asked. "How did this link with erm¡­bedding Zhao Songjin?"

    Then he turned to say in his soul sea. "Xiang Li, can youe out to exin?"

    "Xiang Li?"

    No response¡­

    She had fallen asleep at this time?!

    "Xiang Li? Are you there?"

    "Look! Even Xiang Li doesn''t want to defend you!" all the maidens were saying at the same time.

    Actually Xiang Li had suddenly sensed that she may have made a blunder and was too scared toe out. So she could only mutter. "Big Brother, sorry!"

    Although Xiang Li did not know what was happening but she could sense the furies of the seven maidens that were demanding for an exnation.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he tried to fend off some of the maidens who were now throwing him punches and kicks. Some of them were actually pretty good with their unarmedbat and they were also saints and great saints.

    Although he was painful from their attacks but he really dared not fight back because they were all his precious consorts and future consorts. He could only bitterly protested himself.

    But when he saw that he no longer exin himself due to all the maidens demanding answers at the same time, he gave a loud shout. "WHO SAYS I HAVE BEDDED ZHAO SONGJIN?!!"

    "Ji Yuan¡­you have shouted at us¡­"

    "How mean¡­"

    "You have raised your voice¡­"

    "Are you going to beat us next?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "I swear by my soul sea that beside the seven of you, I have not bedded anyone else. Erm¡­except Wuwu and Baiyue. How about it?"

    Ji Yuan was now smiling now. He had finally sworn by his soul sea. They should be convinced by now.

    Suddenly all the maidens were quiet and many were muttering;

    "Really?"

    "We''ve wrong Ji Yuan?"

    "Are we too petty to jump to conclusion?"

    "We are terribly sorry for wronging Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I told you we should trust our lord here¡­"

    Many of the maidens were suddenly guilty¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was once again looking conceited that he had solved such a tricky situation, Little Princess said coldly. "Then what about you and Ling Tianshui?"

    Bai Qianfeng added coolly. "We know all about you and Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui. If he can lie about his soul sea with her then how do we know that you are not lying about Zhao Songjin?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned.

    CRAP! He had totally forgotten about Ling Tianshui¡­

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she stared at Ji Yuan. "You are the man that my aunt is dating?! How can it be you?"

    Ji Yuan panicky tried to exin. "Wait, wait! Please hear my exnations!"

    "What is there to be exined about? Maybe he has even banged that Shui Xisi!"

    "And¡­even Xiang Li!"

    "STOP!" Ji Yuan shouted. "This is getting too ridiculous! Don''t involve Xiang Li and Xisi into this. I really have nothing to do with them! Are you trying to say that I will be involved with Shui Qingqing next?! You might as well say I''m involved with Han Yuchi too¡­"

    There was a sudden chuckle from outside the tent. "Hey, do you know who I am? I am Envoy Sisi, a friend of your Dark Lord Ji Yuan! And also a friend of your Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. Why should I be kept waiting? I have brought my Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing here too! Hurry and get out of my way!"

    Ji Yuan almost banged his head on the wall but the tent cover was too soft to be called a wall. "Why did you have toe at this timing¡­"

    "Ji Yuan! You got a lot of exining to do!" Ling Feiyue said angrily.

    Ji Yuan only constion was that Ling Feiyue''s voice was never loud and always gentle. Therefore although her tone was fierce but she could not be considered a tigress.

    Saintess Yuluo smiled weakly to the other maidens. "Actually can we don''t be too harsh on him?"

    Outside, Shui Xisi was shouting jovially. "Ji Yuan, where are you? I''ve brought some pills for you. Have you forgotten that we are friends with benefits too? Hehe¡­"

    All the maidens, including Saintess Yuluo rolled their eyes; they had all heard Shui Sisi loud and clear.

    Ji Yuan stared nkly at everyone. "This isn''t really what you are all thinking. Trust me¡­" The ''trust me'' was too forced when he was trying to say it loud.

 Chapter 201 Pride Comes After Fall

    Ji Yuan was at aplete loss after he hadpletely forgotten that he had an affair with Ling Tianshui. This was an honest mistake but it was a terrible mistake that would screw him up.

    Now that Shui Xisi had brought Shui Qingqing into the tent to introduce to everyone, he was feeling extremely miserable.

    He could only pray hopelessly. "May I survive this day to see the dawn of the next day sun¡­"

    Even Xiang Li was sobbing miserably. "Sorry Big Brother! It is all Xiang Li''s fault!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly to her in his soul sea. "Don''t worry. We all make tactical mistakes. I am the one that had dug this hole myself¡­why did I have to use the words friends with benefits. It has suddenly be a viral catchphrase..."

    Shui Xisi seemed to have noticed that everyone was in a somber mood so she chuckled. "So what is wrong? You''re not happy to see my core prot¨¦g¨¦ Qingqing?"

    Little Princess could not resist smirking coldly. "Ji Yuan had bedded Songjin! Look at these chests of gifts. They are all from Zhao Songjin!"

    Shui Xisi blinked her eyes as she turned to appraise the chests. "Wow. I think these chests are worth at least a few million high grade spirit stones."

    When the other maidens had heard her, they were astonished and all of them began to check the chests with their hands and divine sense, discovering many high grade profound pills, profound treasures and even divine swords!

    Saintess Yuluo smiled as she spotted two earth-grade divine swords. "Sisters, I wonder if we can give these two divine swords to our Sister Chengxi and Sister Yan here?"

    All the other maidens had no objections as they smiled warmly. "Sure! No worries! Please take it!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly. "Is it a good idea? There are no free lunches in the world. If we ept these gifts then we are also epting Zhao Songjin''s friendship."

    "My sister is right." Shangguan Yan nodded as she looked at the other maidens.

    But Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were too happily looking through the profound treasures to reply to their doubts.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Saintess Yuluo: ¡­

    Shui Xisiughed as she said to Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi. "Ji Yuan had helped the Celestial Orthodox Sect and fight off Yin Wei for them. So don''t be shy about these gifts. The Celestial Orthodox Sect is so rich. If you don''t take some of their profound treasures then this will be truly injustice to yourself."

    Then she turned to Ji Yuan to ask. "Hey, you don''t mind if I take some of the gifts? You didn''t happen to forget that you still owed me five hundred spirit stones, do you?"

    "Plus interests." She suddenly added with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and replied. "Go take whatever you want."

    Shui Xisi was really not shy at all as she went over to the nearest chest and pocketed quite a lot of gifts.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes again as his sharp eyes caught her pocketing more than ten times what he had owed her. What the heck¡­that is a lot of interests¡­

    Shui Xisi was feeling quite poor after she had paid for the one million high grade spirit stones for the transmission to the immortal realm. Therefore she was really not shy to pocket as much as possible. She was hoping that Ji Yuan did not notice her quick hands¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt the heavy mood had dissipated all of a sudden as the maidens began tough sheepishly as they continued to empty the chests of profound treasures. "Zhao Songjin is indeed quite generous."

    Even Xue Qianxue had to admit. "Some of these treasures are heaven-step profound treasures and there are also many fourth and fifth rank profound pills¡­"

    "Well, if I''m not generous with my forgiveness then the others may think that I am too petty¡­" Little Princess was muttering. She had lost everything and these profound treasures and high grade spirit stones would be useful to her.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes multiple times as he watched his ''gifts'' taken by everyone. But he dared not stop them because he was afraid that they would still be upset with him. So he could only silently gulped awkwardly as he watched his ''gifts'' getting pocketed by everyone.

    Even Saintess Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan could not resist doing the pickings themselves when they noticed that everyone else was doing the same.

    Bai Qianfeng actually took the most as sheughed quietly to herself...

    Only Shui Qingqing was watching quietly.

    Ling Feiyue was muttering. "I am only inspecting in case they may be cursed items in here. It pays to be a little more careful¡­"

    "I need more replenishing profound pills for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­" Bai Qianfeng was searching eagerly.

    "We are Ji Yuan''s family..."

    "It is never a good idea to leave too much wealth to a man. He may squander it easily on other women..."

    Zhao Songjin had brought more than twenty huge chests and everyone was now pouring through the chests excitingly, their moods improving excitingly by every single moment.

    Only Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing were watching with a stunned expression¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he whispered to Shui Qingqing. "Your master¡­seems so greedy. Is she usually like this? Can you tell her that it is enough already?"

    Shui Qingqing chuckled softly. "Why don''t you tell her directly?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I can''t. I am in deep shit today and if I talk to Sisi, I will soon be the center of attraction again. Therefore I can only keep quiet until they are done picking my ''gifts''.

    In no time the twenty huge chests worth several millions of high grade spirit stones were all swept emptied by everyone.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw that they were really not shy at all but he did not dare to raise any protest; it was because he was not prepared to be at the center of attraction again. In fact, he was hoping that the chests would never be emptied while he thought of an exit n.

    However these maidens were too quick and there were too many of them. Even before he could think of a n, the chests were already emptied.

    Soon the interrogations would start all over again¡­

    Ji Yuan was now smiling weakly as all the maidens began to return their attentions back to him.

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she asked Shui Xisi. "What brings Jiajia''s sister here today?"

    Shui Xisiughed jovially as she returned a mischievous wink. "Naturally I am here to ask if Ji Yuan is well. I''m sure that you have heard of the big fight that we had against Yin Wei and the Evil Cultivation Pce three days ago, am I right?"

    This time, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianfeng, Little Princess and the other maidens were all returning a sheepish look. They had actually forgotten to ask Xiang Li about it as they were fully engrossed on gossiping about Ji Yuan and Zhao Songjin.

    Shui Xisi thought that maybe Ji Yuan had just woke up so he did not have the time to tell his tale to everyone. So she patiently exined her own version of the story. "Ji Yuan was taking me to scout the vicinity when we have encountered Yin Wei and his group making an attack on my Qingqing as well as Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi. Therefore we had stepped in to help¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were all thinking; Xiang Li had said that Ji Yuan was escorting her to her camp in the other location¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; crap...

    "... ..."

    "... ..."

    "... ..."

    After retelling the tale for a while, Shui Xisi smiled. "So that it. Short and sweet. We finally got Yin Wei."

    Xue Qianxue asked with a  startled look. "Ji Yuan never bed Zhao Songjin?"

    Shui Xisi was perplexed. "Why did you say that? We are in the middle of a fight and we are in a group of five."

    Little Princess muttered weakly. "Friends with benefits¡­you say so earlier as well¡­"

    Shui Xisiughed. "Oh that. Zhao Songjin actually wants to befriend Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan obviously did not want to make friends with her so he says that they can only be friends with benefits. Is there anything wrong with this?"

    All of a sudden all the maidens had a sheepish look on their faces and some of them were cursing Xiang Li quietly for causing them to misunderstand in front of Ji Yuan. Now they were a little afraid that they may lose their standing in front of Ji Yuan¡­

    Ling Feiyue quickly smiled. "Oh! This is all a misunderstanding. Hehe. Then let''s don''t mention it anymore."

    All the others maiden quickly agreed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did they just believe Sisi instead of me?

    Shui Xisiughed as she said. "I have brought Qingqing here as I have not introduced my sessor to all of you yet. Since I am going to the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and I don''t know if I may return therefore I like to introduce her to everyone. Please take care of her in the future for my Sister Feifei''s sake."

    Then she turned to smile at Shui Qingqing. "My Sister Feifei is the Saintess Fang Zhengfei."

    Shui Qingqing was startled. "Is she the one that alwayse to our ce?"

    Shui Xisi smiled. "Yes, the mysterious maiden is actually her."

    Shui Qingqing was gasping with surprise. She really did not know that her master and Saintess Fang Zhenfei had this kind of a rtionship and moreover she also seemed to know Ji Yuan and the rest of his consorts so well¡­

    Xue Qianxue put on her most adorable wink at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan! My lord, why are you so quiet? It is so unlike you. Say something, will you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I dare not. Because Feiyue has not forgiven me over my affair with her aunt. So it is better that I kept quiet over it.

    "Ji Yuan, you are too quiet! What happened to you?" This time it was Ling Feiyue who was prompting him. "Tell us about your fight with Yin Wei please!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is she serious?

    All the maidens were all giggling. "Yea. Please tell us about your epic fight with Yin Wei!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are they serious?

    Ji Yuan totally had no mood to retell his epic fight with Yin Wei anymore. It was because he knew that his bad deeds with Ling Tianshui had been discovered.

    He did not expect that his flirt had been discovered by Ling Feiyue and he was feeling extremely bad.

    So he muttered. "Actually, it is all my fault. Please don''t me Tianshui¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him all of a sudden with a soft chuckle. "You really like my little aunt, do you? I have been hoping that she has someone all these years. If you like her, why didn''t you tell us?"

    Ji Yuan was a little stunned that Ling Feiyue was so bold as to tell everyone of his affair with Ling Tianshui¡­<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing were taken by surprise as they gasped silently; he had an affair with Matriarch Moon Elder Shui Tianshui?

    Even Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were startled by Ling Feiyue''s reactions. It was because they were expecting for Ling Feiyue to be upset if she had learnt about the truth.

    Instead Ling Feiyue was giggling sweetly. "You are so silly. Why didn''t you tell me earlier? I can always matchmake the two of you!"

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "You mean it?"

    "Do I look like I''m joking?" Ling Feiyue teased back with a wink.

    Seeing that Ling Feiyue wasposed and was even teasing him back, all of a sudden Ji Yuan wasughing again. "Haha. Let me tell you of my epic fight with Yin Wei first¡­"

    All of a sudden, his morale and spirits were lifted up and he was happy again.

    When Ji Yuan was in jovial mood again, all the maidens'' moods were also lifted up by him as well as theyughed jovially together.

    "Wait, get my Aunt Tianshui here as well." Ling Feiyue insisted.

    Ling Feiyue was not joking. She had always been close to her aunt and she really wished that she could find a deserving man. She was actually very d that she was with Ji Yuan.

    When the other maidens saw Ling Feiyue''s reactions, they were all quick to support her.

    "Right! Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li was surprised that the crisis was over. "Oh? Big Brother, you''re not dead yet?"

    "That is because I am a genius cultivator plus I have good looks. Haha¡­" Ji Yuan replied to her in his soul sea.

    "But it seems that Maiden Songjin seems to have received a different treatment? Why?" Xiang Li asked differently.

    "Well, that is because Zhao Songjin hasn''t got into their good books yet." Ji Yuan lied. He was toozy to exin to Xiang Li.

    After a short while, Ling Tianshui had entered the tent, surprised that she was being called to chat with everyone.

    As soon as Ling Feiyue saw her, she smiled. "My Aunt Tianshui! I have finally found out who your secret man that day. So it is Ji Yuan!"

    Ling Tianshui was stunned and she was flushing awkwardly. "Please hear me out. It is only a flirt and nothing else¡­"

    "Why do you want to have a flirt when you can make it into a permanent rtionship?" Ling Feiyue teased boldly and she was giggling sweetly.

    Ling Tianshui was very smart as she rolled her eyes to look at everyone. "If you don''t mind this old senior to join you, why not? Hehe."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Saintess Yuluo were allughing. "You''re not old at all."

    Shui Qingqing had a look of envious when she saw that even Ling Tianshui had a chance to be with Ji Yuan¡­

    Shui Xisiughed. "I guess that my Qingqing and I are the odd one out¡­"

    Although she had said that but all the other maidens knew that sooner orter she would join them because they could tell that Ji Yuan''s eyes were constantly on her.

    Except for Shui Qingqing of course who could not see it because she was not as shrewd as or smarter than the other maidens.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said loudly. "Where are the good wines? Let''s bring it all out as I retold my epic fight!"

    As Ji Yuan retold his exaggerated version of his epic fight, Shui Qingqing was looking at him like a fangirl and she was nodding at all his ounts.

    This was the very first time that she was so near to her idol and she was really delighted that she could watch all his little nuances in such an intimate manner¡­

    After Ji Yuan had finished telling his epic fight, he wasughing jovially.

    Little Princess said with great mncholy. "You were cornered. Without Sisi''s and¡­Zhao Songjin, I don''t think you can be hereughing with us. I don''t have a clean background too. Maybe I shouldn''t have discriminated against her. After all, she had helped saved the life of my lord and even given us twenty chests of gifts."

    When Little Princess had said this, Xue Qianxue and the other maidens were also quiet.

    Xue Qianxue said. "Actually if Songjin is willing to repent, I ought to give her a chance to do so. After all, it is better to have one more friend than enemy."

    Shangguan Yan said quietly. "She had a heavy heart when she came earlier¡­"

    "And left with a heavy heart too." Saintess Yuluo added quietly. "She was like me in the past..."

    Little Princess had suddenly walked to hold Sisi''s hands. "I know that your Sister Feifei has suffered greatly under the hands of her godfather. If you need any help from us, please let me know. Alright?"

    Shui Xisi: ???

    What godfather?

    Ji Yuan had suddenly frozen on the spot; he was trying to cover for Jiajia that she was the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce so he had lied to Little Princess that Jiajia was a dual cultivation ve of the Evil Divine Pce Master who happened to be her godfather.

    Ling Feiyue muttered. "Who is Jiajia''s godfather?!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had a perplexed look. "I don''t know¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenlyughed out loud. "Shall I tell you about some of my other epic fights in the past¡­"

    Shui Xisi suddenlyughed. "No, I want to hear more about this godfather thing¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am dead¡­

    But Little Princess replied awkwardly. "Sorry. It is a slip of my tongue. I have promised Ji Yuan not to tell anyone."

    Ji Yuan: I am saved...

    "Then I ask Ji Yuan myself." Shui Xisi chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: I am dead again....

    "Or you can share with me who is your first time?" Shui Xisi winked at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan stole a look at Little Princess before heughed awkwardly. "I have many first time..." His first time was with Little Princess and Yuxian was his second cultivation partner. But he was unwilling to tell anyone.

    -

    -

    -

    When Zhao Songjin was back to the camp of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, Han Yuchi asked her immediately. "So how? Did Qianxue agree toe back again?"

    "She needs time to think over." Zhao Songjin said quietly.

    Han Yuchi nodded. "I should be the one going to approach her. This is more sincerity¡­"

    "No mother." Zhao Songjin smiled gently. "It is good that I was there. I know that Qianxue and Little Princess do not trust mepletely but it is actually because of my bad karma. I only hope to make amends for them for the rest of my life."

    Han Yuchi sighed softly. "Is that really necessary?"

    Zhao Songjin nodded firmly. "I had almost killed Ji Yuan and ruined their happiness. Moreover I was too power hungry in the past. Please announce my abdication whether Qianxue is willing to take up the Sacred Maiden position or not. This is the least that I can do now."

    Han Yuchi sighed softly. "If that is your wishes¡­"

    Then she added with an anxious look. "Do you think that Yin Wei is dead?"

    Zhao Songjin sighed heavily. "I still have a mole around Yin Wei. So far, there is no news yet. I''ve got the feeling he isn''t dead yet."

    "So we can''t make Ji Yuan your lord yet¡­"

    Zhao Songjin interrupted gently. "Actually I can tell that Ji Yuan doesn''t seem to have me in his heart. He had never taken a close look at me while around me¡­"

    She inhaled softly before she continued. "But it is good as well. He isn''t as lecherous as I thought. Unlike Jin Yilong and Zhan Zhong. I really wish that I was kinder to him in the past."

    "Child, it isn''t your fault. Remember, you are a pawn of the Evil Cultivation Pce and did not have any choice." Han Yuchi pointed out.

    Zhao Songjin averted her eyes. "I have now disabled all my evil dual cultivation profound skills. I was really soscivious in the past due to the evil skills that I had been practicing. I really wish that I can be like Qingqing. She is definitely much better than I am."

    Han Yuchi slowly nodded before she sighed. "But Qingqing, she seems tock worldly experience. She is too sheltered and she doesn''t seem to know how dangerous the cultivation world is. She doesn''t even have any trial experiences too. It seems that her master haspletely sheltered her."

    Zhao Songjin smiled. "It is good in a way too." Then she said quietly. "It seems that Qingqing has an eye for Ji Yuan too."

    Han Yuchi began to smile awkwardly. "This is something that I am anxious about. It seems that Ji Yuan doesn''t take a second look at her."

    Zhao Songjin averted her eyes. "A lot of men actually like their cultivation partners to be fiery and taking their own initiatives. I can tell that Ji Yuan is constantly looking at Shui Xisi instead."

    "Since you know him so well then you can easily win over his heart?" Han Yuchi asked with a hopeful look.

    Zhao Songjin shook her head. "Our paths didn''t have a chance to cross with each other. He is only pretending to be lecherous. I have checked his history. It is mostly flirts and no action. Do you know that he didn''t even touch his ex-sweet heart at all?"

    Han Yuchi was startled. "Really?"

    Zhao Songjin nodded. "And when he went to the brothels, he was just there to drink with whatever friends that he could pick up."

    Han Yuchi: ¡­

    "I really can''t believe it and yet he is now surrounded by so many beautiful maidens?" Han Yuchi shook her head with disbelief.

    Zhao Songjin said quietly. "I believe that he is with them because there are emotion attachments between them. For me, I have totally no chance at all. These maidens really like him and they all plot to win his heart. As for me, I use my plot for my own selfish advancement. That is why Ji Yuan will never like me¡­"

    She corrected herself. "Of course not all them use any plot. Like Saintess Yuluo, she is there at the right timing for him. I can''t believe after so many years, Ji Yuan still can''t forget about her."

    Han Yuchi said weakly. "With so many saintesses around him, he is going to find them really hard to handle."

    Zhao Songjin replied with a faint smile. "He can handle them because there is true love between them."

 Chapter 202 Prelude To The Trials Of The Labyrinth (1)

    Days quickly passed by and there were more and more cultivators from all parts of the Deste Celestial Fraternity that had shown up in the many settlements below the imposing Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that was making a slow descend.

    Finally the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had stopped descending and all the cultivators were now growing even more excitingly; it was because in three more days, the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would finally be opened!

    The newly arrived cultivators to the settlements were astonished that they were suddenly seeing an impossible sight; half of the men around were actually beardless and they were even quite proud of it!

    "What the heck?"

    "The world must be ending¡­"

    "Why are there so many men walking around without a beard?!"

    "They are not even golden celestials¡­"

    "What?! They shaved off their beards?!"

    The cultivators were now split into the bearded and the beardless groups as they quarreled daily against one another.

    The beardless group was of course led by the Great Hero Ji Yuan and his supporters. In a short while time, Ji Yuan''s supporters were now in the majority group while the anti-Ji Yuan camp was now less than 30%.

    Thanks to the influx of the thousands of cultivators that wereing daily, the bearded group managed to maintain around 30%.

    However each day, more and more cultivators began to join the beardless camp.

    "Fellow Daoist! Why did you join the beardless camp? I can''t believe that you will join the beardless camp. You used to have the most beautiful beard¡­"

    "You know. There are more beautiful maidens over the beardless camp. That is why I am joining it. After I join the beardless side, the maidens are finally talking to me. Haha¡­"

    "She finally talk to me after I have shaved off my ugly beard. Ji Yuan is right. Being beardless sure makes you more handsome¡­"

    "After I have shaved off my beard, I actually have a breakthrough¡­"

    "I already feel my profound power is stronger than ever before after I have shaved my beard¡­"

    "I''ve be more alert after I have be beardless¡­"

    "My woman is now praising me endlessly after I''ve shaved off my beard¡­"

    "I can''t stand being bearded anymore. Every day, there are always a group of maidens that are constantlyughing at my ugly beard¡­"

    "What is going on here?"

    Under great pressure from everyone, more and more bearded cultivators began to shave off their beards or they would risk getting ridiculed to no ends.

    "Are you saying Great Hero Ji Yuan is wrong?"

    "How dare you insult Great Hero Ji Yuan!"

    "What? This Great Hero Ji Yuan, isn''t he the Sword Demon Ji Yuan?"

    "Isn''t Ji Yuan a wanted cultivator?"

    "Why are everyone suddenly worshipping him like he is a cult leader?!"

    "Many of the beardless cultivators are orthodox cultivators¡­"

    Ji Yuan of course, was not aware of what was going on as he was too busy in his own camp; he was banging all his loving maidens and was enjoying himself in theirpany.

    He did not know whether he would return or even some of his dearest consorts would return from the brutal trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so they were all trying their best to be in each otherpany.

    Although the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were treacherous, few cultivators would want to miss out an opportunity to enter inside because this was an immortal level trial. If they manage to survive it, it would be helpful to their ascension in the future and they would be able to bring back immortal treasures to the Celestial Realm to benefit the celestial cultivators.

    At the same time, they will be meeting the cultivators from the other celestial fraternities to forge alliances and to trade for cultivation secrets.

    And of course, it is to prove to the other cultivators from the other celestial fraternities that the Deste Celestial Fraternity is the best celestial fraternity in the Celestial Ream.

    However for the first few days Ji Yuan was in great shock while he was in his beloved maidens''pany; all the maidens had be white tigers.

    "What the heck!" He was inplete disbelief.

    "Ji Yuan, didn''t you say this is a blessing?"

    Ji Yuan mutterered, "I did but this is..."

    Xiang Li was drooling nonstop. "They are even more beautiful now!..."

    Shui Qingqing had been going to the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect on an almost daily basis, mostly to chat with Ji Yuan and the other maidens. They were all starting to treat her as though she was their sister.

    Finally today she quietly pulled Little Princess to one side and said anxiously. "Little Princess, I''m so sorry."

    Little Princess was perplexed. "Why are you sorry? Did you do anything wrong?"

    Shui Qingqing shook her head as she returned a deep sigh. "I didn''t tell you that Zhao Songjin is my sister¡­"

    But as soon as she had said that, Little Princess wasughing. "So I see."

    "You''re not surprised? You are not ming me for hiding my identity from you?"

    Little Princess smiled. "Actually all of us can see that you bear a close resemnce to Zhao Songjin. Because you have never told us, we didn''t probe you on this."

    Shui Qingqing bit her lips. "I had heard of what my sister had done in the past. I''m truly sorry. I hope that I can make amends for my sister¡­"

    "No need." Little Princess interrupted quietly as she shook her head. "She is only acting under my orders to be a mole in the Celestial Orthodox Sect. If Sister Qianxue can forgive me for being the mastermind behind Zhao Songjin''s deeds, I should forgive Songjin for betraying me as well. After all, she isn''t even the mastermind behind her actions. She is only acting under my Brother Yin Wei''s orders."

    Then she heaved a deep sigh. "I had heard from Ji Yuan when he was drunk and he got a slip of tongue that Songjin''s mother is actually Han Yuchi. She must be feeling very terrible now because she had been misled into acting against her mother and betraying her mother''s sect. She is actually quite pitiful."

    "Really? You will forgive her?" Shui Qingqing was gasping softly.

    Little Princess nodded as she smiled mesmerizingly. "Yes. Anyway, I may not return back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so what is the point of carrying this hatred in my heart? Moreover I may yet meet Zhao Songjin inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and it is better to have an ally than an enemy inside¡­"

    "Actually¡­" Little Princess held Shui Qingqing''s hands. "In the past, I had regarded Songjin as my close aide and a sister. I was just quite saddened that she had betrayed my trust in her."

    ? Shui Qingqing was touched and her eyes were bleary. "Thank you Little Princess¡­I help my sister and mother to thank you as well¡­"

    Little Princess asked gently. "You like Ji Yuan, am I right?"

    Shui Qingqing nodded but there was a sad tone in her voice. "But he has never taken a second look at me."

    Little Princess smiled. "Give him more time and also give yourself some time to know him more. He is under a lot of pressure. He never shows his anxiety to us but I can sense it. He doesn''t want to hurt you for sure. I hope that you can understand this."

    Shui Qingqing quietly averted her eyes before saying. "I would rather that he would try to hurt me at least once¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess coolly said. "Don''t tell him I''m the one that told you this. If you want him to notice you, you got to touch his heart first."

    "Touch his heart?" Shui Qingqing asked curiously, not understanding.

    "He is an oaf and an unromantic cultivator. But once his heart is opened to you, he will be the most sentimental and romantic cultivator. If you can''t touch his heart then you are nothing but a beautiful vase in his eyes and he will simply ignore you."

    Shui Qingqing was quietly muttering. "Touch his heart? How do I aplish that?"

    Little Princess chuckled softly. "I''m afraid that I can''t teach you. Every maiden has their own tricks. It depends on your own charms."

    "My own charm?" Shui Qingqing was muttering slowly.

    -

    -

    -

    In the secret base of the Evil Cultivation Pce;

    The Evil Cultivation Master, the Sagess Alyssa and the Goddess Mei were kneeling politely in front of a dark shroud curtain.

    Behind this dark shroud curtain, a shadowy figure was seen stroking his long beard and he was patiently sampling from a wine cup.

    "This wine isn''t bad. It''s no wonder why it is so popr."

    Although this shadowy figure was taking his own sweet time but no one dared to disturb him from doing so.

    Finally he said in an old and hoarse voice. "Sagess Mei. Well done. The Super Metamorph Project is a great sess in your hands and I am interested in your great work. Yin Wei is now stronger than even a peaked great saint."

    The Goddess Mei humbly said. "It is my pleasure to serve the Great Demon God."

    "You have done quite a few meritocracy services for me all this while. It is time for me to reward you. You shall be promoted to a goddess now." The shadowy figure said nonchntly.

    The Evil Cultivation Master had turned pale. "Great Demon God, do consider carefully¡­"

    "There is nothing to think about." The Great Demon God had suddenly raised his finger and the Evil Cultivation Master was suddenly yelling with great agony!

    In that instant, the Evil Cultivation Master had grown even older and there was a powerful animus around the Sagess Mei!

    The Evil Cultivation Master looked hatefully at the Sagess Mei as his vitality was used to enpower her into bing a Goddess!

    The Sagess Alyssa had a look of envious in her eyes as she smiled forcefully. "Congrats sister. You are a goddess now. I should address you as the Goddess Mei in the future."

    The Goddess Mei was delighted and she was giggling. "Thank you, Great Demon God!"

    The Evil Cultivation Master was wriggling in pain on the ground and his wrinkled old skin was even older now. "Great Master! You have promised me eternal life!"

    The Great Demon God said coolly. "You''re just my vassal in the Celestial Realm. Didn''t I give you two deste immortals to help you? But you have failed me. Didn''t I warn you not to touch Little Princess? I can close my eyes to your schemes but disobedience to my instructions has a heavy price to pay for."

    The Evil Cultivation Master was now stammering weakly. "Please forgive me. This is really a mistake¡­"

    "That is only because you''re only too eager to get back your vitality. Do you really think that I do not know about your little schemes?" The Great Demon God said coldly.

    The Evil Cultivation Master kept quiet as he clenched his teeth¡­

    The Great Demon God shed a divine sword in front of the Goddess Mei. "From now onward, you shall now be the leadmander of my deste armies. This immortal-step divine sword is my reward to you. Use it wisely as your token of power."

    The Goddess Mei was delighted as she shed the sword in front of the Evil Cultivation Master. "Hehe, thank you great master!"

    After containing her delights, she asked. "Great Demon God, what will be your next instruction be?"

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly. "Since Yin Wei is now so powerful, I shall promote him to be mymander."

    The Evil Cultivation Master was shocked. "That will be the same rank as me¡­"

    "Be thankful that you are still mymander." The Great Demon God interrupted.

    The Evil Cultivation Master humbly replied with great fear. "Yes, yes¡­"

    The Great Demon God raised his cup high up and chuckled softly. "Soon the Ancient Fortress will descend onto the Celestial Realm and this realm shall be my realm. The sun of the Celestial Realm is really such a beautiful thingpared to the sunless Deste Realm¡­"

    He waved his fingers as he said. "I am a just True God, the Great Demon God of the Deste Realm. Serve me well and perhaps I can reward you to be the great goddesses and gods. All deste immortals have to bow before me. Fail me and I shall remove you like a puny ant."

    The Evil Cultivation Master quickly fearfully said. "Yes, yes¡­"

    The Goddess Mei turned to the Evil Cultivation Master as she gleefullyughed. "Well, you are now my former master and I''m your master now. I know that you can''t leave this ce to retrieve Little Princess. Why don''t you have a little talk with my newmander Yin Wei instead? Perhaps he can help you."

    The Evil Cultivation Master: ¡­

    The Sagess Alyssa smiled as she raised her voice to say. "Shall we recruit the Abyssal Null Goddess to our cause?"

    The Great Demon God frowned at the mention of the Abyssal Null Goddess. "She is a strong goddess. One of the very few that can hold against the Great Goddess Alice. If she is willing to join our cause then I can promote her to a great goddess."

    The Goddess Mei gasped. Great Goddess is above her and that will mean that the Abyssal Null Goddess will be the leadmander.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was trembling. Then he would be drained even further and perhaps would even lose his life¡­

    "She doesn''t know about my existence yet. Go and tell her that the Great Demon God Hong Meng awaits her to join my new deste army. Tell her, I can''t take no for a reply."

    The Sagess Alyssa smiled coldly. "Alright."

    The Goddess Mei and the Evil Cultivation Master looked hatefully at the Sagess Alyssa. It was obvious that she was trying to screw them.

    The Great Demon God had suddenly turned his head to a quiet sentinel. "Is everything done yet?"

    "It is done." The quiet sentinel smirked coldly.

    "Good."

    The Goddess Mei, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were all stunned. They did not realized that there was someone else here as well!

    It was only when the shadow had talked, did they realize that there was someone else here!

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng smiled. "I am always apanied by my two protectors. They are Great Gods."

    Once again, the Goddess Mei, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were shocked. There was yet another person here and they did not realize it. They were even more startled when they had realized that the two secret protectors were actually great gods!

 Chapter 203 Prelude To The Trials Of The Labyrinth (2)

    This was the third day ever since the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had stopped moving and it was hanging over hundreds of mountains like a dark shadow.

    Today the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was being surrounded by a golden animus, an indication that the trials within were finally opened!

    From the dozen of settlements below, thousands of cultivators were now gathering to send off their champions as they levitated toward the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The imposing Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was now hovering high above the tallest mountain peak and the only way to approach the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was by levitating toward it.

    The cultivators could not fly nor could they take their flying mounts to approach the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth because no beasts would be able to approach near without their profound strength being drained off by the massive formations that were presented around the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    However now that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was being enveloped by a golden animus, the golden celestials would be able to levitate to it just by disying their profound animus. Even a weak sword cultivator would not find it taxing to disy his profound aura as it was a mysterious powerful immortal formation that was actually pulling the cultivators toward the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and it actually required very little profound strength to maintain the minimum profound aura needed for levitation.

    There is another restriction that was thew of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; only a golden celestial may enter the trial. Therefore the cultivators have to first attain to the fifth realm level before they could enter inside.

    Thousands of golden celestials from the thousands of celestial ns were now slowly levitating toward the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Many of them were looking excitingly and for many, this was the first time that they were experiencing ''flight''.

    But there were also hundreds of golden celestials that were looking grim; it was because all of them had received a secret mission and that was to kill Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!

    -

    -

    -

    In the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, Ji Yuan was now saying farewell to many of his friends and beloveds.

    He was now readied to leave for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    However there was a grumble look on his countenance. It was because for the past three days, he did not have the chance to bang his love ones because he had endless visitors from the various celestial ns and these celestials never seem to sleep because they were all golden celestials.

    Many of them were doingst minute visits to affirm their alliances with the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and with Ji Yuan.

    And one of the visitors was none other than Great Saint Jian Kang, the father of Saintess Jian Yuluo. Naturally, he would not turn him and the others away.

    Therefore there was actually three days of feasting as the visitors ballooned to several hundreds. This was the very first time that the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators were able to sit down together as they feasted together.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see that Great Saint Jian Kang, Saint Jian Lindong, Shen Qin and many others were all beardless all of a sudden.

    He was quite speechless. As a matter of fact, even Guo Taiming and Li Ye were all beardless now¡­

    Even Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin had paid him a visit too. It was because Xue Qianxue had finally decided to ept the Sacred Maiden position.

    But Xue Qianxue had a condition first as she said to Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin. "I want Songjin to be my Right Protector. I wonder if that is beneath you?"

    Zhao Songjin was finally smiling again. It was because the Right and Left Protectors of the Sacred Maiden was actually the Sacred Maiden''s inner circle and they were there to help her to run the sect. This means that Xue Qianxue was now willing to trust her again.

    She wept joyfully. "How will this position be beneath me? I am only too d to ept it¡­"

    The best news that Ji Yuan had during the feast was the Great Saint Jian Kang proiming to everyone. "I am proiming that my daughter Yuluo will be betrothed to Ji Yuan today!"

    When Ji Yuan had heard the announcement, he was overwhelmed by the news. "Haha! It is my honor..."

    Ji Yuan was now looking at Saintess Yuluo, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Ling Tianshui and Bai Qianfeng with a reluctant look.

    Ling Tianshui smiled as she announced. "We have fifty golden celestials that will be entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you. Some of them had already taken flight to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Five of them are recements as we had lost five golden celestials during the metamorph monster attack."

    Then she sighed softly as she looked at Ji Yuan. "The rest of us will be defending this camp and our profound ship as we await your return. Please take good care of yourself while inside."

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly as he nodded. "Everyone¡­please take care and be careful. We will surely return."

    All the maidens were looking at him with a reluctant look.

    Then he took a look at Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng who would be entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with him. "Hopefully we have a chance to meet inside."

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng nodded as they said together. "We will."

    He turned to look at Xue Qianxue. "Qianxue, when I have returned, I hope to see our child."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "I hope so too!"

    He returned a smile as he sighed. He had never thought that one day he would end up with Xue Qianxue, a most lovely and adorable maiden. She was his fan girl and she had always wanted to meet him. A series of blunders had caused him to run away from her and in the end, he had realized that there was a plot against her and he had decided to look for her to find out more.

    Of course, finding her to unravel the plot was secondary. The primary was to look for a beard growing remedy of course. He had never expected that he would end up with Xue Qianxue in the weirdest situation, in a prison with her.

    He could not even remember how he could be so bold at that time and he had dared to kiss her. Seeing that she did not protest, he had be bolder and they ended up together...

    "My lord!" Ling Feiyue had suddenly flown into his embrace as she kissed him, startling Ji Yuan.

    He was even more startled when he noticed that there was a profound pill inside Ling Feiyue''s mouth and he was being forced to swallow this profound pill!

    He coughed weakly as he stared at Ling Feiyue. "What is that? Is it poison?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly. "Will you be affected by mere poisons? This is actually the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned ashen!

    It was because he had just swallowed a priceless sixth rank divine pill that could strengthen the cultivator''s spiritual sea!

    This was actually a gift from Shui Xisi to Ji Yuan when she was pretending to be Envoy Shui Sisi but it was quickly taken away by Ling Feiyue.

    Now Ling Feiyue had forced him to swallow it!

    This shocked Ji Yuan as he had assumed that Ling Feiyue must have swallowed the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill already.

    He coughed weakly. "This is far too precious! You shouldn''t have given it to me. Do you know how priceless this divine pill is?"

    But Ling Feiyue chuckled. "But you are my lord. So what is wrong with that?"

    One by one, Saintess Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan and Xue Qianxue were slowly giving him recovery profound pills, high grade spirit stones that they had plundered not long ago from the gifts that were presented by Zhao Songjin.

    "My lord, these are for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was really very touched and he did not know what to say. "Everyone¡­thank you¡­I love you all..."

    Xiang Li muttered in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "I love all of you more..."

    Ji Yuan held onto Saintess Yuluo''s hands. "Yuxian, please get well soon. I really happy to see you again. I''ve thought we would never be able to see each other again. I''m really happy, you know? Finally your father has given consent to us and you will finally be my consort now."

    Saintess Yuluo nodded and her eyes were brimming with tears, "Ji Yuan, I''m also so d. Do you know that I have always been waiting for the day that we can finally be together..."<sub> </sub>

    Finally Ling Feiyue sighed softly. "My lord, it is time for you to leave now."

    Xue Qianxue nodded. "We will all miss you."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was trembling as she lifted her head to look at Ji Yuan, "My lord. I would like to go with you¡­"

    When Ji Yuan heard her, he interrupted her with his roaringughter.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said firmly. "I''m a Sword Saintess¡­"

    "You just have your breakthrough and is only a half-step golden supremacy. Without profound energies, you have no profound strength. How do you fight? Stay here and consolidate your vital profound strength first." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    In innguage, Fairy Ye Chengxi just had her breakthrough and her spiritual sea had not replenished yet and hence, she would not able to generate her profound strength to her full potential.

    With only a limited profound strength, she would be exhausting herself very fast if she were to use her lightless profound skill, profound sword arts and profound defenses at the same time.

    No half-step golden celestials would go to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth because it was in suicide.

    In the past, Ji Yuan was able to kill Elder Hai Sheng, a sixth realm cultivator while he was only a half-step initial saint with the cultivation strength level of a fourth realm cultivator. But that was only because he was precise in his attack but even then he had to increase his cultivation level to the golden celestial level in order to really hurt him.

    But then if he focused on the defensive to conserve his profound strength, it was difficult for Elder Hai Sheng to kill him as well; he was after all a saint cultivator with superb recovery rates. Running away was definitely not an issue for him.

    "Chengxi¡­" Ji Yuan sighed softly. "Right now, you are so weak. I doubt that you can even defeat a fourth realm cultivator¡­"

    That was a little too exaggerating. A fourth realm cultivator would not be able to defeat easily a half-step fifth realm golden celestial because a fifth realm golden celestial had superb regeneration, recovery, natural profound defenses and could take alot of punishments. The disparity between a golden celestial and a non-golden celestial is simply too great to ovee.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi shook her head. "I have already recovered my vital profound strength to the fifth realm level. Therefore you can say that I am a fifth realm golden celestial with the recovery speed of a sixth realm initial golden supremacy."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. Dang! In four months'' time, she had regained her vital strength to this level? Is she rich or something?

    Fairy Ye Chengxi giggled. "It is all thanks to Jiajia''s aid. She is really generous to me with her cultivation resources."

    "But anyway, you should stay here. Fifth realm cultivation strength or not, you are not going anywhere. You are going to quietly cultivate your vital profound strength here and no arguing." Ji Yuan insisted firmly.

    No matter what, Fairy Ye Chengxi''s spiritual sea had notpletely replenished yet and it would be too dangerous for her.

    He was looking all kinds of excuses to prevent her from entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Shangguan Yan sighed. "Although I am a golden celestial now but I am only a useless half-step golden celestial and I can''t even go to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth even if I want to¡­"

    Ji Yuan pulled Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi to him as he sighed softly. "You''re my best core prot¨¦g¨¦s. But I can''t allow the two of you to risk your lives inside. I really can''t bear to. A hundred years ago, I couldn''t protect the two of you. Now that the two of you have managed to have a better life now, I hope that the two of you will be able to enjoy it a little longer."

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were looking at Ji Yuan with trembling lips. "My lord¡­please keep your promise to us and return¡­"

    "Yan''Er, Chengxi...I will." Ji Yuan smiled.

    Little Princess giggled. "Ji Yuan, you''re not leaving yet?"

    Ji Yuan had a sheepish look¡­

    "Or are you waiting for someone?" Little Princess said teasingly.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to give an awkward answer back, there was a soft chuckle. "Ji Yuan, you are still around? I''ve thought that you might be one of the first to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth by now."

    It was Jiajia and she hade with Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    When Ji Yuan saw that it was Jiajia, he was smiling all of a sudden. "Haha. If you are a little slow then I may have already left¡­"

    All the other maidens were rolling their eyes; it was obvious to them that Ji Yuan was hoping that Jiajia would be here to send him off.

    Just as Jiajia had walked up to him to greet him, Ji Yuan had suddenly seized her by her waist and he was kissing her lips.

    Jiajia quickly pushed him away with a flustered look. "Don''t¡­there are others here."

    Ji Yuanughed and at the same time, he was looking at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. Unknown to the other maidens, he had actually banged them as well while the others were not looking a couple of days ago.

    He was not afraid that he may be found out because this was already an ''open'' secret.

    Jiajia had actually known about it but she closed her eyes to it and pretended she did not know of Ji Yuan''s flirt with her two confidants.

    "Jiajia. If I cane back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, will you be my consort?" Ji Yuan chuckled. He was thinking; surely you are not so heartless as to reject my request? I will be very demoralized and this will affect my performances in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Jiajia rolled her eyes as she thought; when did he be so smart?

    She returned a soft chuckle. "Alright then¡­"

    Ji Yuan was really delighted as he swung her around with his strong arms. "Jiajia, I love you! Haha!"

    Jiajia panicky said. "Put me down! This is too improper¡­"

    But Ji Yuan did not care as he continued to swing her around for a while before putting her down.

    Jiajia sighed as she looked at him. "Hurry and go. It is gettingte now."

    "Alright." He turned to look at Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng. "Let''s go now."

    With reluctant look at the rest of the maidens, Ji Yuan sighed heavily as he released his profound aura. Slowly but surely, he was lifted by the profound aura of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as he floated into the air.

    He was apanied by Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng.

    As he levitated away, his eyes were searching for Sisi. Where is she? I thought that she is entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth too? She is so heartless...

    Sisi was not heartless. She could not bear to say sad farewells and had already entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth by herself.

    Jiajia looked up at him as she waved him goodbye; you must return alive. As for me, I don''t know if I can see you again. Hopefully I can. My foes are strong and I may not be able to handle them¡­"

    Some days ago, her Sister Sisi had already told her about her encounter with Yin Wei. She could only sigh heavily because even with the involvement of her Sister Sisi, she was still unable to kill Yin Wei, Yin Xiong or the Sagess Mei. The strength of the Evil Cultivation Pce really could not be underestimated.

    Her Sister Sisi is also a super exponent in her own right and she is not weaker than herself.

    Her only constion was that Yin Wei was now out of the picture and would not be a threat to her.

    Jiajia said silently. "Ji Yuan, I really hope that you are the one that is prophesized by Diviner Mo Ming..."

 Chapter 204 Prelude To The Trials Of The Labyrinth (3)

    Ji Yuan was floating gently toward the huge massive Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. As he got nearer, he saw that even the sun got blotted from it and he was like a tiny ant.

    He thought that he may be able to chat with Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng along the way but he had suddenly noticed that they were hovering at a much faster pace than him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck?!

    The speed is different?!

    What kind of a discrimination is this?!

    Although the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is easy to reach for all the golden cultivators but the disparity between the different cultivators also affected the speed.

    Bai Qianfeng was being pulled into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth much faster than Little Princess and Ji Yuan. Soon she had disappeared like a tiny speck of dust.

    Little Princess kept turning her back at him but as she could not controlled her ascend to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, there was nothing she could do and after an hour, she too, had disappeared like a tiny speck of dust.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you know what. After the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, I am going to learn some internal profound arts to enhance my profound animus." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Xiang Li wasughing in his soul sea. "Big Brother, I know you won''t. It isn''t because you are notzy but you have no potential for it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Thanks Xiang Li, you are indeed my best friend¡­" Ji Yuan muttered.

    Then he added with a soft chuckle. "My most useless best friend."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    It was a slow snail hover to the top of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Even though it did not look like it was very far to the top but after Ji Yuan had started to levitate toward it, did he realize that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was much further than he had expected. Looking below, all the settlements were now like a tiny speck of dust.

    He was quite startled; the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth wasrger than he had actually expected¡­

    "Wow, Big Brother you are flying¡­" Xiang Li expressed with delight. "Can I fly with you? I can hover around you, you know¡­"

    "Xiang Li, don''t distract me. If I don''t focus, I will have a hard fall below and you know we are now at a great height now." Ji Yuan sighed.

    "Big Brother, are you afraid of heights?" Xiang Li suggested.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''m not¡­"

    All of a sudden he was distracted by a screaming sound as a golden celestial had fallen from a great height. It turned out that this golden celestial was actually afraid of heights.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed that there were several more golden celestials that were falling or turning back.

    Before the trial had started, they had already failed!

    "So Big Brother, are you afraid of heights?" Xiang Li asked again.

    "No¡­" Ji Yuan was frowning. He was more afraid of water than heights. His old master used to throw him down the cliff until he could even visualize his surroundings even when he was falling. In fact he had always wanted to fly except that he was too poor to afford a flying mount.

    As for water, he was afraid because he could not swim. But then he would not drown because he could hold his breath as long as he liked since he is a high level golden saint.

    "Then why are you flying so slow? Are we reaching yet? I love trials, you know." Xiang Li chuckled.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I love trials too but it is only because of you that we are traveling a little slow."

    "Oh?"

    "You are getting fatter nowadays Xiang Li." Ji Yuan pointed out with an evil grin.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    After another hour of flying, Ji Yuan could finally see the edge of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. He was hoping mad because he did not know that he would be traveling at such a slow snail pace.

    But he was not thest; there were still thousands of cultivators that were behind him.

    Along the way, he saw hundreds of cultivators who were all muttering;

    "Isn''t that the Great Hero Ji Yuan?"

    "Why is he so slow?"

    "Great hero Ji Yuan seems weak¡­"

    It was a p to his face as he had to endure the stares of all the other cultivators.

    His only constion was that Li Ye and Guo Taiming were even slower than him.

    As he approached the edge of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he began to recollect what Ling Tianshui had briefed him about the trials.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would have a time limit of six months before all the trial takers would be cast out.

    Altogether the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would have six levels and at the end of each level, there would be an exit portal. If they had chosen the exit portal, they would not be able to exit immediately but would be put to a temporary stasis until the trials had finally ended.

    Unlike the normal trials in the Celestial Realm, the experiences inside are real and they would be killed. Therefore they had to be extremely careful.

    Also the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth contained thousands of worlds and it was unlikely that everyone would meet with one another. The number of worlds would get progressively fewer as the levels go up.

    It is rmended that a fifth realm cultivator does not go beyond the second level and a sixth realm cultivator not to go beyond the fourth level. However this is only a rmendation. Many saint cultivators could not even go beyond the third and the fourth level.

    The majority of the cultivators were actually fifth realm cultivators and most only have the intention to stay at the first level of exploration.

    But Ji Yuan had a mission from Jiajia and Diviner Mo Ming; he was asked toplete the trial.<sub> </sub>

    When Ji Yuan had thought of this, he was musing weakly. "They must be joking with me. This is the first time that I am entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they are asking me to go to the top level¡­"

    His thoughts were interrupted by a strong light that was now pulling him to the foot of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and into a portal that had opened just for him.

    He was immediately excited. "Hoho! Xiang Li, we are finally going to reach the trial!"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Finally!"

    "Don''t make meugh. If I lose my focus, I will be the first one to fall at the footstep of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan heard a loud scream as a cultivator slipped his focus when he had almost reached the portal; it was because he could not contain his excitement and had a heart attack at thest minute.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Maybe I will be second then¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Yin Wei was now kneeling in front of a dark shrouded curtain. He had been brought here by the Goddess Mei who had told him that he would be the newmander of the deste army.

    At first he did not understand. "You mean themander of the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    The Goddess Mei smiled mysteriously to him. "You will knowter. By the way, even your father the Evil Cultivation Master is merely amander of the deste army. As for me, I am your leadmander. You shall be wise to listen to my instructions in the future."

    Yin Wei took a disdainful look at her.

    Ever since he had merged the metamorph core with him, he was no longer looking like an ordinary human; he was covered with scales and had heavy bone armor all over his body.

    But he was extremely d; it was because he felt more powerful than any great saints. He could not believe how fast he had regenerated his organs and body back.

    Although he was now asked to kneel in front of a shadowy figure but there was a look of defiance in his eyes. It was because he felt more like an absolute ruler over the Evil Cultivation Pce now and if he could chance upon Ji Yuan again, he would be able to crush him like a puny ant.

    The Goddess Mei said. "Kneel before our great master, the Great Demon God. Our great master has appointed you as hismander from this day onward."

    "God?" Yin Wei smirked coldly as he looked coldly at the dark shadowy figure.

    From this day onward, he, Yin Wei, shall be the only God of the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    He was thinking; this dark shadowy figure looked like a frail old man. What if he were to reach out and snubbed out his life?

    The Great Demon God continued to sip his wines and he did not seem to turn his head to look at Yin Wei directly. As a matter of fact, he seemed to be ying chess all by himself.

    "Are you thinking that I am just a frail old man? And you are thinking of attacking me to test if I am worthy of bing your worthy great master? Then why don''t youe to have a go at me?"

    Yin Wei was startled as a cold shiver ran through to him. The voice of this dark shadowy figure seemed to have a profound hold on him¡­

    After staring nkly at the dark shadowy figure for a while, he stammered out. "I dare not!"

    It was because he was suddenly overwhelmed by a dark malevolent aura and he was like a puny child in front of this powerful cultivator who called himself the Great Demon God.

    "Good! From this day onward, you shall be one of my dark destemanders. However whether you are worthy or not remains to be seen and you have to prove your worthiness in front of me. Do you get me?" The Great Demon God said coldly.

    Yin Wei slowly nodded as he continued to stare at this Great Demon God¡­

    All of a sudden there was an evil wicked w that was formed from profound energies as it flew out of the dark shrouded curtain to w against Yin Wei!

    Yin Wei gasped loudly as he braced to defend himself. With his new profound strength and impregnable body armor that could even resist the sharpness of a heaven-step divine sword, he was confident that he would not be hurt by anyone¡­

    But the unbelievable thing had happened and he was suddenly thrown back against the wall. On his chest was five deeply etched ws and he had coughed out golden blood!

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly. "Too weak! You are still too weak! Be more respectful to me when you see me the next time."

    Yin Wei was still coughing weakly and he was still staring at his wounds which were not regenerating; what is going on? I can''t seem to regenerate my injuries?!

    The Goddess Meiughed jovially. "Anyone that is injured by our great master''s Dark Deste Force can only heal naturally. Even if you are a great god, you are nothing in his eyes!"

    Yin Wei was stunned. "Who are you?!"

    "Our great master is naturally the god of gods, the True God of the Deste Immortals!" The Goddess Mei giggled. "Yin Wei, you are lucky that you didn''t die on the spot. Even your father has to be humble in front of our great master. Did you really think that you are stronger than any peaked great saints? Think again next time and be wiser."

    Yin Wei lowered his head to say humbly, stammering fearfully now. "Yes¡­yes¡­"

    The Goddess Mei said coldly. "I want you to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Kill Ji Yuan if you want to, we don''t care at all. In fact, kill all you want and we don''t care."

    Yin Wei replied weakly. "Yes, yes¡­"

    "Now go." The Goddess Mei gently rebuked him.

    When Yin Wei was gone, the Goddess Mei asked the Great Demon God. "Great master, what do you think?"

    "I am pleased with his strength." The Great Demon God merely said.

    The Goddess Mei was delighted. After all, the new Yin Wei was her creation.

    "However I can''t trust him with our secrets yet. You have talked too much." The Great Demon God added slowly.

    All of a sudden the Goddess Mei was on her knees, "Please forgive me, great master. I shouldn''t have talked so much. I¡­just thought that he is going to be one of us¡­and that is why¡­"

    The Great Demon God merely said. "I had already sent the Great God Mingwang, the Dark God of Death to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Yin Wei is just an extra."

    The Goddess Mei gasped. "Great God Mingwang is also one of us?"

    The Great Demon Godughed softy. "He is the one that you saw the other day."

    The Goddess Mei stammered. "The Dark God of Death is one of the most powerful great gods in the deste realm. I just surprised that he will be willing to be on our side."

    With trembling voice she took the courage to ask. "Then who is the other one that day?"

    "The Dragon King, Draconian God of the Mighty Dragons." The Great Demon God replied nonchntly.

    The Goddess Mei gasped as she stumbled backward as she gasped weakly. "Even he¡­"

    The Great Demon God raised his wine cup. "For thousands of years, I have been nning for this. The Pangu Immortals will never guess that we are actually here. When they do realize this, it will be already toote because I will rule supreme here without the heavenlyws to restrict me and I will turn the Celestial Realm into my own realm."

    "Goddess Mei, it is time for you to lend a helping hand to¡­"

 Chapter 205 Into The Labyrinth (1)

    When Ji Yuan was being pulled into the golden portal that had shown up in front of him, he had suddenly noticed that he was being pulled into the smelly toes of the Great God Pangu; he was literally at the ''footstep'' of the great monument mountain statue of the Great God Pangu.

    "What the heck?! Is this a joke or what?!"

    Xiang Li had heard him and she wasughing in his soul sea. "Big Brother is sniffing the smelling toes of the Great God Pangu¡­"

    So startled was Ji Yuan that he had lost his focus to maintain his profound animus and he had almost be the second cultivator to fall upon reaching the portal of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Luckily he was quick enough to grab the ''toes cliff'' of the Great God Pangu and regained his profound animus.

    "Whew!" He shivered to think what would happen if he fall. Even a blink of an eye would cause him to drop from a great height and he would be forced to ascend again.

    "Ops!" Xiang Li said.

    But it was not Xiang Li''s fault. Talking to Xiang Li was always a good way for Ji Yuan to rx himself and to refocus his thoughts.

    He was really startled by the fact that of all the ces, he had to enter the toes of the Great God Pangu.

    What a bad start¡­

    "What an unlucky start, Xiang Li. I''ve got a bad omen about this." Ji Yuan muttered.

    "Why Big Brother?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "Because we have entered through the toes, that''s why. We are treading thinly on our toes. Haven''t you heard of this saying before?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    "No¡­" Xiang Li pondered very hard but she could not remember hearing this saying before.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "You got to read more books. You''re behaving like an uneducated couth like me but even an uneducated couth like me knows more sayings than you."

    "Of course I don''t know more than Big Brother! You are the best! My Big Brother is the Great Poet Ji Yuan and I am inferior than Big Brother!"

    "Haha Xiang Li! You''re right. Haha. I am actually quite knowledgeable¡­"

    When he had said that, he had entered into the golden portal.

    The golden portal was actually quite big and dozens of cultivators were entering at almost the same time as Ji Yuan.

    When the cultivators that were nearby saw Ji Yuan nearly had a trip, they were quite speechless but did not dare to say a word; it was because Ji Yuan is a great saint and they did not dare to be impolite to him.

    They were all shaking their heads silently.

    "We are all entering the smelly toes¡­"

    "Even Ji Yuan nearly had a trip at the toes, it is a sign of bad omen for all of us¡­"

    "Should I turn back now¡­"

    "I am smelling the toes of the Great God Pangu now¡­"

    There was a brilliant white light as Ji Yuan entered into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    When he had regained his sight, he saw that he was now standing among tall grasses and there were even some inexpensive spirit nts near him. There were also many mountains that he could see but he was actually standing on a vast t in with grasses that were taller than a tree.

    "A legendary innd?" Ji Yuan muttered. He had never seen a innd before as the Celestial Realm is a mostly mountainous ce.

    Above him there were thousands of floating inds.

    He was a little awe by the sight of so many floating inds. How the heck does these inds float?

    Xiang Liughed. "Woot! Can Ie out now to y? We are finally in the Labyrinth!"

    "No, you stay inside my soul sea. It isn''t safe until we know where we are." Ji Yuan immediately cut her short. "Plus there may be other cultivators around."

    "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is inside a vast spatial space. Some say the exact location may well be in the Great Beyond Realm. When we pass through the portal to the inside, we will be teleported to a random location within the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth." Xiang Li giggled. "See, you know where you are now!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "How the heck do you know about this?!"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I have overheard Saintess Fan Yuqing saying to Lu Qingyun while they are inside my Lotus Sword Mansion Trials."

    Ji Yuanughed before he asked. "Then what else did they say about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    "Saintess Fan Yuqing said it is descending soon and taking the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is like taking a walk inside." Xiang Li pondered before answering.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "She is really very humorous¡­"

    Xiang Liughed. "She is. She jokes and teases Lu Qingyun all the time."

    "Well, lucky for Lu Qingyun¡­" Ji Yuan muttered as he took a careful look at his surroundings.

    He cast an anxious look around because he was a little cautious. The terrain here is very bad for fighting and he would have no hiding ce unless he could reach the nearest mountains.

    ording to the briefings about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that he had received, the portal to the next level is a hidden one and that they must search for it while exploring the ce. Also there would be dozens of trials on each level.

    "What else did Fan Yuqing say? About the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    "Well¡­" Xiang Li pondered very hard to recall. "She said that it is actually a massive maze hence the naming but it is a maze with plenty of untold profound treasures to be found throughout the levels. She also said that once we have entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, we will see thousands of floatingnd masses and these are actually the different worlds. The higher floatingnd masses represent the different levels inside."

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Interesting. So it means that we are actually standing on one of the floatingnd masses now¡­hmm, this Saintess Fan Yuqing sure is knowledgeable..."

    But he was soon bursting with excitement. "Oh well. It is time for us to explore the ce now. We are going to have a good start. And for the very first time, we are going to be freed from the maidens. Haha!"

    Xiang Li protested immediately. "I am a maiden¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "No, you''re not. You are my best confidant¡­"

    Xiang Li was flustered. "Oh hehe¡­"

    "Are you talking to Xiang Li now? So Xiang Li is your best confidant then what about us then?" A beautiful yet familiar voice giggled in the still air.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly turned around; his eyes nearly popped out when he saw Ling Feiyue and behind her was Little Princess.

    Ling Feiyue giggled with great delight. "I say, the world is really so small. We have actually met in this ce. Now I truly believe that we have four lifetimes together. This is perhaps the fifth lifetime."

    Behind her, Little Princess was alsoughing mesmerizing as she nodded. "Although it is nearly impossible to meet one another in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but we have really met. This is too good to be true. Now we can all take our trials together¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had unsheathed his immortal-step divine sword and he was pointing solemnly at Ling Feiyue and Little Princess. "Who are you?"

    Xiang Li was startled as she asked in her soul sea. "Big Brother, what are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan said loudly. "They are not real! They must be the demons from the trials of thebyrinth to test us because the real Feiyue has nevere into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!"

    "But she is real, Big Brother¡­."

    Ji Yuan shook his head with a determined look. "She isn''t real. Although her disguise is good but she can never fool my eyes. Trust me. I know my women very well, clothes or no clothes!"

    Xiang Li muttered with a stunned expression. "She isn''t real?"

    "We are inside the dangerous trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Unless we can prove their identities, everyone is our enemy and apetitor!"

    Ji Yuan then raised his voice to say coldly. "Who are you? How dare you take the guise of my women? If you don''t answer me immediately, don''t me me for ughtering the two of you without any mercy! I give you a count of three to dere your real identities!"

    "One¡­"

    "Two¡­"

    "Are you listening?!" Ji Yuan was now frowning at the two maidens who looked quite amused.

    "Three!..."

    Ling Feiyue quickly said. "Ji Yuan! If I am not Ling Feiyue, how do I know that you are talking to Xiang Li?"<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess was also giggling. "He is being overly cautious again. At first I don''t believe but now I really believe. Why is Ji Yuan so cute?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly. "I won''t be cute once I have ughtered all of you for not taking my warnings. No one shall green me or deceive me with the looks of my consorts!"

    All of a sudden he had attacked ''Ling Feiyue'' with his sword energies waves, creating nine bursts of powerful sword energies at the same time as his sword energies approached her.

    Hehe! This is my improvised sword energies waves and you''re the first to taste it in the trial. If you have heeded my warning and back off, I will be merciful. You probably won''t die but you will definitely be severely injured by my sword energies¡­"

    All of a sudden ''Ling Feiyue'' had unsheathed her heaven-step divine sword and unleashed a brilliant profound light that immediately shattered all his sword energies and the white light was so condensed with profound power that it continued on its path to retaliate against Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly raised his sword to defend himself; he skidded for seven steps before he managed to muster his profound strength to deflect the white light off him, causing it to explode thunderous to the side!

    He was stunned. "She is a great saint too?! The Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon? She can even copy my technique?!"

    THIS TRIAL IS TOO LAME!!!

    Immediately he had mustered his sword spirit and a white re appeared on his forehead. With the sword spirit now, the profound power of his sword arts would also increase but at a cost of more profound strength.

    Ji Yuan began to shout furiously. "Let me show you what the real Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon is like¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a thunderous eerie and evil voice that interrupted Ji Yuan. "Hahaha. Ji Yuan! So you are here! Then it will save my trouble to look for you!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he turned to see a powerful build cultivator walking with a heavy footstep toward them.

    "Yin Wei?!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked to see Yin Wei. It was because Yin Wei now lookedpletely different and he was looking more like a monster now; he retained the characteristics of his face but there was armor ting and wicked spikes all over his body¡­

    But he quicklyposed himself because he had realized that this Yin Wei was also aplete fake; it was because it was impossible for Yin Wei to regenerate his body in two weeks time. Given his injuries, he would at least take twenty years topletely recover, not two months or two years! Even two hundred years to recover was not a surprise at all!

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, it was indeed Yin Wei and he was holding his left hand over his chest; there was a five talon scar on his chest. This wound had been afflicted by the Great Demon God and until now it had not been truly healed.

    "Yin Wei! I have finally found you!" Little Princess shouted angrily as she unsheathed her divine sword. "Today it is either you die or I die!"

    Yin Weiughed as he stretched his neck left and right as he unsheathed his divine sword. "Little Princess, you will only be warming my bed¡­"

    Ji Yuan was staring nkly at Little Princess as he cursed.

    Darn!

    This trial Little Princess sure looked like and act like my Little Princess. Luckily I have the experiences of the Dream Trial to thank for or else I would surely be fooled into thinking that this is real. But the trial is a little stupid. It ismon sense that the cultivators won''t be able to party up and encounter a friend so easily...

    It is mathematically impossible and moreover there are two people that I know here. Luckily, I am not so dense and know something about the nature of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Yin Wei had suddenly pointed his sword at Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan, since you are here. Why don''t you use your most powerful profound sword art on me instead? I will stand right here to receive your attack. How about it?"

    "Ji Yuan! Don''t fall for his tricks!" Ling Feiyue panicky shouted to him. "Let''s fight him together!"

    "He won''t take your profound sword art and he will evade at thest minute!" Little Princess panicky cried out to him.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; this trial is too tricky. Now they are trying to cloud my judgments. This Yin Wei may not be real as well. He looks too ugly to be the true Yin Wei. Therefore what I really have here are three enemies¡­once I start to attack Yin Wei with them, they will start to attack my back. Then I will end up fighting on two fronts. Therefore it is better that I will remain standing where I am instead¡­"

    His quick mind had now worked on quick n and he had analyzed his enemiespletely.

    So heughed at Yin Wei. "Haha. You will really let me use my profound sword art on you?"

    Yin Wei smirked coldly. "Naturally I will."

    "You know, they are right. What if you will suddenly evade my attack? You don''t mind if Ie with twenty paces within you? Even if you want to evade, it will be toote." Ji Yuan was grinning.

    Yin Weiughed. "Sure,e. I will wait for you then."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue shouted to Ji Yuan. "Don''t listen to him! We will fight him together¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to her to say bitterly. "Stay where you are and don''t approach me!"

    "My lord!" Ling Feiyue was saying with great exasperation. "At least allow us to cover your sides and act as your support!"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I''m warning you not toe near me."

    Yin Weiughed. "It seems that you have a little issue with your beloved consorts today and you have an infighting?"

    But secretly he was thinking. They must have known that I am nearby and this is only their ruse. I must not fall for it¡­

    At the same time Ji Yuan was also thinking as he walked within twenty paces of Yin Wei; this must be their ruses. But what is the ruse? I can''t figure it out. Is this fake Yin Wei stupid or what? He is calling for me to kill him?!

    Never mind first. Kill him first.

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Well, you are asking for it then¡­" This fake Yin Wei is just a simpleton¡­

    Does the trial knows that the full hit of my most powerful profound sword art can kill even a high level deste beast instantly?

    p Yin Weiughed. "Then can I receive your Super Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon now?"</anda>

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; he can''t wait to die¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had mustered the might of his sword spirit to merge with his profound energies as he began to disy the profound energies of his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. When his sword spirit had merged with his profound sword art, his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon would be turned into a Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!

    The bad part is, the super version needs three blinks of an eye longer to charge and onlysts a second longer. But it is several times more powerful and had a greater range.

    Ji Yuan hesitated for a while after he had charged up his profound energies and he was hesitating to see if Yin Wei would make a move to evade his attack. Once he had startled to execute his attack fully, the drain on his profound strength would be massive and his profound strength would be drained fully for three blinks of an eye at an insane rate. But if he canceled the attack then the profound strength drain would cost him little.

    He grinned. "Well, be prepared for my attack. I will count to a three and you better prepared yourself. One¡­"

    All of a sudden he had made his move and arge burst of profound light had flown with a stunning brilliant white light where Yin Wei was standing!

    Ji Yuan had lied of course.

    "Big Brother, you say to a count of three. You lied¡­" Xiang Li muttered in his soul sea.

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed in his soul sea. "You can''t keep your promise to an evil cultivator or you will be screwed by him¡­"

    "It''s not that. I am unprepared. You didn''t tell me¡­" Xiang Li chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yin Wei had kept his word and he had tanked the full st of Ji Yuan''s attack as he raised all his profound defenses into defending himself with his divine sword.

    Three blinks of an eyeter and after shrouding in a burst of bright profound light, Yin Wei was forced to take ten steps backward by the tremendous force and he was yelling with great agony¡­

    But when the dusts had settled, Yin Wei was still standing in the background with smog and burning wisps around him. But he was smirking coldly...

    Ji Yuan was stunned; he didn''t die?! He doesn''t even look like he is hurt by my most powerful profound sword art at all¡­what is going on?

    Even Xiang Li was stunned. "Big Brother, he is a monster¡­"

    Yin Wei was nowughing jovially.

    It was because Ji Yuan hadpletely fallen into his ruse. Now he had weakened Ji Yuan''s profound strength by half in order to reduce his profound power. At the same time, he had also ensured that Ji Yuan would not be able kill himter. It was because he knew that Ji Yuan would only use this trump card of his only two times.

    Ji Yuan''s second time trump card would be much weaker than the first. That was why Yin Wei had focused all his profound strength into his defenses. In this way, he could avoid getting caught by Ji Yuan when he was making his attack.

    Now he was certain of his own victory by fulfilling several objectives.

    So Yin Wei chuckled coldly. "I can''t let you hit me for free. Now it is my time to hit you back..."

    "Do you know that you can only recover your profound strength in a limited way here?" Yin Wei chuckled. "The higher the level, the hard it is for you to regain your profound strength."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he tried to muster new profound strength via his internal profound energies from his spiritual sea to his fingers and he had instead found out that Yin Wei was telling the truth...

    He solemnly said to Xiang Li. "I think we are in trouble now¡­"

 Chapter 206 Into The Labyrinth (2)

    Yin Wei wasughing heartily now. He had fooled Ji Yuan into expending his most powerful sword art.

    If he had been struck by Ji Yuan while he was diverting his profound strength to his attacks, his profound defenses may not be able to tank the full profound power of Ji Yuan''s attack.

    But at the same time, he knew that Ji Yuan would not be so foolish into expending his precious profound attack in a random attack. He obviously knew that Ji Yuan is always quite calctive when he is in a fight.

    But he had an advantage that Ji Yuan did not know and that was his super metamorph form that could triple his profound defenses.

    After experiencing Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon in thest battle, he knew the peak of his profound power. Even though Ji Yuan could kill an epic metamorph monster with his most powerful profound sword art but Yin Wei had calcted that if he could focus all his profound strength into his profound aura and defensive profound art, he would be able to tank Ji Yuan''s full attack.

    But the problem was he had to trick Ji Yuan somehow by baiting him.

    So he had to act dumb in front of Ji Yuan.

    An opportunist like Ji Yuan would hardly give up a chance to beat him and he was proven right.

    When Yin Wei was in full defensive, his profound defense was three times better than he was at previously!

    His new body and new profound strength was able to resist Ji Yuan''s super killing techniquepletely!

    And this time round, he was proven right!

    Now it was his turn to perform!

    Almost immediately after he had tanked Ji Yuan''s attack, he had shed forward with his sword to deliver forward a powerful profound sword attack that was aimed at Ji Yuan.

    Yin Wei''s profound sword attack was not at its peak because he needed time to switch his profound energies into his offensive profound attack.

    Simrly Ji Yuan''s attack was on the full offensive previously and his defensive strength was now at his weakest.

    Therefore with a quick hit, Ji Yuan was sent flying all the way backward even though he had swiftly blocked the attack.

    Just as Yin Wei was about to sh against Ji Yuan, he was blocked by the swords of Little Princess and Ling Feiyue!

    But as soon as they had crossed swords with Yin Wei, they too were gasping as they were sent flying back to where Ji Yuan was.

    Ji Yuan had a sniff of their fragrances and he was groaning with shock. "Howe the two of you have the same scents as them¡­"

    He really had a sharp nose and he had suddenly realized that they were not illusions because illusions are not able to duplicate any scents.

    Ling Feiyue giggled sweetly as she readied a defensive stance. "That is because we are your consorts!"

    "My lord Ji Yuan! You are too overtly cautious!" Little Princessughed softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Feiyue, why are you here. You''re not supposed to be here¡­"

    Yin Wei had shed in their midst and he was swinging his sword, causing a ring of profound energies to burst out around them and scattering them. It was obvious that Yin Wei was rapidly regaining his offensive profound strength and his attacks were getting more and more powerful.

    "I will exinter! Fight first¡­" All of a sudden Ling Feiyue gasped aloud as Yin Wei had wounded her on the shoulder, causing her to fly backward.

    Little Princess and Ji Yuan immediately shed to engage Yin Wei, intercepting him from harassing Ling Feiyue.

    But they too, were sent flying backward by the explosive sword strokes from Yin Wei.

    As they struggled to stand, the two of them had coughed out golden blood and they could barely stand!

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were staring in disbelief¡­

    Yin Wei was now stronger than any peaked great saint!

    They could not even engage him without getting overpowered by him...

    What was going on?

    How did Yin Wei be such a monster¡­

    Yin Weiughed. "I have Ji Yuan to thanks for my powerful form today. None of you can outrun me or hide for me. I am just so surprise that you will be the first that I will actually meet in the trial. Heavens must really be so kind to me. Haha!"

    "You''re nothing but a freaking monster now!" Ji Yuan spat as he readied his sword stance. As he encircled to his position, he was signaling with his fingers that he put on his back to Ling Feiyue¡­

    Ji Yuan said in a low voice to Little Princess. "My dear, will you distract Yin Wei for a little while?"

    Little Princess nodded as she immediately shed to Yin Wei with her divine sword raised high!

    "Ji Yuan! You are some as to ask a maiden to fight your battles for you!" Yin Wei mocked him.

    In just a blink of an eye, Little Princess was sent stumbling backward; it was because Yin Wei was simply too strong and she was forced to disengage almost immediately.

    As Yin Wei returned his attention to Ji Yuan, he was quite amused to see that Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue were both holding hands together.

    By now Yin Wei had almost regained his full profound strength and he would be able to use his most powerful sword art.

    He was quite amused and mocked them, "So the two of you have decided to perish together¡­"

    All of a sudden both the divine swords of Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue were both glowing with white brilliant profound energies as they raised their voices. "Retribution of the Profound Heavenly Light, Flying Coiling Dragon Sword¡­"

    Both the sword spirits of Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan were glowing brightly at the same time and all of a sudden, an extremely bright animus in a form of a long white beam that was energized by encircling sword energies had suddenly shed out of the profound energies of their swords to create a spector sight.

    Yin Wei was startled. Immediately he could sense that this profound power was unusual and even more formidable than Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!

    "What the hell is this shit?!..."

    His first instinct was to gather back his profound strength to his defensive profound aura and to evade this attack!

    As he was not standing at point nk in their line of sight, he was totally sure that he could evade the iing profound attack.

    Therefore he had started to take evasive action.

    But to his startled astonishment, the white beam had quickly expanded into many times bigger than it should be and he was hit by the circling sword energies that were actually more powerful than it looked before the white beam of light struck him and causing his body to explode violently!

    When Yin Wei''s body exploded right before his eyes, he could not believe what was happening.

    He was capable of regenerating his wounds and damages quickly but why was he unable to withstand this weird attack that looked like but was even more formidable than Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon?!

    But he soon got his answer.

    Ji Yuan inhaled heavily as he said nonchntly. "This is ourbined sword art, the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. I''ve bet that you have never seen anything like this before."<sub> </sub>

    The Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon is actually much more powerful than the version that Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue had used previously. It was because Ji Yuan''s had since evolved his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to new heights into the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon."

    He had decided to add an Ultrapowerful in front of thebined profound art that Ling Feiyue and he had created.

    Ling Feiyue inhaled softly, exhausted from all her profound strength by theirbined profound art. Thebined sword art had taken a toll on her as its profound power was too much for her to handle and she could only use it only once.

    When Ji Yuan''s profound strength and his coiling dragon had improved, the drain on her profound strength had since grown even greater. Moreover, Ji Yuan had evolved theirbined sword art into the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. Therefore the drain to her profound strength was really unimaginable!

    Little Princess could not believe such a powerful profound art could actually exist. This was more like a miracle profound art!

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Ling Feiyue with a soft chuckle. "Since you are capable of using ourbined profound art, I''m now convinced that you are real now. Why are you here?"

    "Of course I am real! I''m not exining to you because you have doubts over me earlier. Didn''t you say you know your women very well, clothes or no clothes?" Ling Feiyue giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Big Brother, I''ve already told you that they are real! But you don''t believe me! I know your women more than you!"

    "Shut up in my soul sea. You are just an extra."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Little Princess had a bewildered look as she walked quietly to Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue before she turned to Ling Feiyue to ask with a more perplexed look.

    "Earlier when I saw you using Ji Yuan''s Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon, I was wondering how you could learn his unique sword art when both your profound foundations are sopletely different. Now I finally understand that this is yourbined sword art. How on earth did you manage to merge twopletely different sword arts together into a new sword art?"

    It was extremely difficult to create a newbine profound art. Usually hundreds of years and even thousands of years of polishing would be required by thousands of cultivators over the years to perfect a newbine profound art in order to create a new profound art.

    And it was almost unheard of two cultivators from twopletely different background to create a new profound art together. In order to do, theirpatibility must be close to perfect.

    Ling Feiyue chuckled gleefully. "That is because we have been together for the past four lifetimes!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he smiled bitterly. That is Xiang Li''s lies¡­

    Little Princess was still looking stunned.

    She had been with Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue for such a long time and she had never expected that they would have such a powerful trump card together. As they were the originators of this newbined profound art, this profound art of theirs would continue to improve as they improved as well.

    The only apparent weakness of theirbined profound art was that it seemed to be extremely draining on the side of Ling Feiyue and that it could only be used once.

    Just as she was about to ask more, Yin Wei''s broken body was suddenly regenerating at a terrifying speed in front of them and instead of Yin Wei, it was forming into a gigantic long necked armor metamorph beast with eight arms and legs!

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were stunned when their divine sense felt the profound power of this monster¡­

    Yin Wei had suddenly be an epic eight rank metamorph monster!

    "Do you really think that you can kill me? This must be yourst trump card and this is my trump card! Hahaha!" Yin Wei wasughing maddening. "Today I will cut you all into pieces! All of you must have depleted all your profound strength by now. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily¡­

    "Xiang Li, this time I really need your help. Can you help me?" He asked in his soul sea.

    Xiang Li chuckled weakly. "Do you want me to throw a punch at him? I doubt it will help you know." But she had suddenly turned solemn. "But I won''t leave you alone. Xiang Li will die along with my Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he was frowning. "Who says I''m going to die?"

    But he quickly said. "I need you to use your one and only power on me. Hurry!"

    Xiang Li frowned. "I ampletely useless. Do I have any power?"

    "Aren''t you the most awesome and useless spirit entity that can only enhance the entities of the others but not yourself?" Ji Yuan reminded her.

    "Oh that! I''ve almostpletely forgotten about that useless part of mine." Xiang Li chuckled.

    "Well, you can enhance my sword spirit for my final fight." Ji Yuan reminded her. "I have a sword spirit now, you know."

    "Oh yea!" Xiang Li chuckled.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s forehead was glowing brilliantly and his immortal-step divine sword was now surrounded by a strong white animus.

    All the onlookers including Yin Wei was startled. It was because Ji Yuan''s sword was now radiating strongly with profound power!

    Yin Wei roared with mockingughter as his body continued to regenerate and he was now growing formidable armor tes on his armor. "What is the point of strengthening your profound power on your sword? You have no profound strength to enhance your profound sword arts! Don''t tell me, you want to practice hacking at me to see if it works?"

    Ji Yuan purposely hesitated for a while as he stared at Yin Wei''s terrifying new form that was forming in front of him.

    Then with a slow swing of his sword, he muttered as his divine sword turned white with profound energies. "No, this will work."

    In the next blink of an eye, he had released his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and a white light had imploded over the gigantic Yin Wei andpletely obliterated him in the next instant!

    He had done it slowly because Yin Wei was now in his most vulnerable state as he had to direct all his profound energies into regenerating himself. In Ji Yuan''s eyes, Yin Wei was already dead.

    This time round Yin Wei was truly dead and he could not believe that he would actually be in by Ji Yuan. When he had died, he had finally remembered how the assassin leader of the ck Hand Guild was killed by Ji Yuan in the past and he was totally clueless about how he had died; how could a sixth realm cultivator killed a saint cultivator like him?

    Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were startled that Ji Yuan actually still had his profound strength!

    They were muttering. "This is impossible¡­"

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply, this timepletely exhausted. "I still have two more trump cards. One is Xiang Li and the other one is my profound strength¡­"

    When Ji Yuan was battling the epic eighth rank metamorph monster, he had put on an exaggerated act that he could only use his most powerful profound art only twice because he knew that there were so many onlookers around and he never liked to tell anyone about his trump cards.

    Using his most powerful profound sword art two times will exhaust his profound strength but will notpletely exhaust him because he is a sword energies cultivator with astonishing profound energies recovery. His profound energies recovery is faster than most cultivators, enabling him to perform multiple profound sword arts at the same time.

    The fact that his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon which depended heavily on the speed of his profound energies recovery was not impeded, already gave a hint of his startling profound energies recovery rate.

    Plus he had alreadypleted his Natural Instinct and his rate of recovery is faster than most cultivators.

    Also he had just swallowed a sixth rank divine pill that Ling Feiyue had forced him to swallow to strengthen his spiritual sea.

    Due to the effect of the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill that was still affecting him, he could even forcefully used his most powerful profound art a fourth time if he was desperate enough.

    Although his recovery rate would be affected by the levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but it was not limiting him more than the others. So when Yin Wei had mocked at him for not knowing that he was not able to drawn upon his profound strength as fast as previously, Ji Yuan had pretended to y dumb to lure him intocency.

    "You''re the one that assume that I can only use my strongest profound attack only twice, not me. Darn you. You have forced me to reveal my trump cards¡­" Ji Yuan cursed the dead Yin Wei.

 Chapter 207 Xiang Liâ€™s Wish

    Ji Yuan was frowning at Ling Feiyue now while Little Princess was watching them casually.

    "Feiyue, you''re not supposed to be here at all." He was almost hopping mad.

    "If I were not around, would you be able to kill Yin Wei?" Ling Feiyue chuckled softly.

    "I will definitely have a n to kill Yin Wei." Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "Now can you tell me why you are here and howe the two of you are together?"

    Ling Feiyue copied his tone and pretended to hum coldly. "Then let me ask you a few questions first."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Are we officially lord and consort yet?" Ling Feiyue asked.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. "No¡­"

    "Then what right do you have to stop me from entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "You''ve promised your aunt¡­"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes as she chuckled. "That is before but things are different now."

    "Why so?" Ji Yuan frowned deeper than ever before.

    "I know that you''ve bedded my aunt and right now she is trying to amodate me instead. So that was before and after now." Ling Feiyue could not resist a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Do you know that Qianxue and Jiajia may be in danger? What a good sister you are." He said unhappily.

    "With Jiajia around, do I need to worry?" Ling Feiyue pointed out.

    "You''re a great saintess. With one more great saintess to help around, I feel more secure¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly interrupted him. "Sister Qianxue and Jiajia now had the aid of the Celestial Orthodox n. Have you forgotten that Sister Qianxue is once again the Sacred Maiden? There are also Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi that are around too¡­"

    Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi actually did not enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as they had thought that Yin Wei was dead or dying and he could not have possibly entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. So they felt that it was pointless to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    "Also, Jiajia has brought four great saints and ten saintesses from her own sect to protect Sister Qianxue. And these four great saints are all peaked great saints. Let me ask you then. Am I stronger than a peaked great saint?"

    Ji Yuan muttered slowly. "No¡­"

    Little Princess was startled. "How did Jiajia find four peaked great saints to help her?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "Sister, you don''t know yet that Jiajia is the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce?"

    Little Princess gasped and she waspletely stunned. With a mesmerizing but dark look, she turned to Ji Yuan and said in her sensual voice. "Ji Yuan! Please exin yourself! Why did you tell me that Jiajia is a melting cauldron of her godfather the Divine Pce Master!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he protested immediately. "I''ve promised Jiajia not to tell anyone¡­"

    "But I''m your woman!" Little Princess furiously said and she was kicking him all of a sudden.

    "Wait, wait!" Ji Yuan immediately said. "Feiyue! Please help me¡­"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled. "Only if you are not upset with me foring here."

    Ji Yuan immediately said after he had received a hard punch on his chest by Little Princess. "You win! Help me please!"

    Little Princess was hitting him really hard and she had most of her profound strength still intact after their fight with Yin Wei.

    "Alright." Ling Feiyue replied with a soft giggle and Little Princess had withdrawn her attacks immediately as they chuckled together.

    It was only then that Ji Yuan had realized that they were conspiring against him and he was frowning softly now but there was nothing he could do or say now.

    So he asked. "Howe the two of you are together?"

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess turned to look at each other as they muttered at the same time. "We¡­actually don''t know¡­either!"

    All of a sudden they were interrupted by a familiar soft shout. "Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Sister Feiyue¡­why are you here?"

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were all startled as they turned their heads around only to see Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng walking toward them with a perplexed look.

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Ji Yuan with a soft giggle. "So are you going to attack them? Maybe they are not real."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Women can be so petty¡­

    But at the same time Ji Yuan was calling in his soul sea for Xiang Li. "Erm, are they real?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I don''t know¡­"

    "Aren''t you the so call expert in identifying my women? And aren''t Qianfeng your best friend?"

    Xiang Li immediately chuckled. "Yes, they are real as long as they are beautiful."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are not helpful at all¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and pointed his sword toward Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng. "Keep your distance first until we can prove your identities¡­"

    But as soon as he had said that, Shui Xisi had shed to him with great delight as she took out her feathered barbed whip tosh at him. "Ji Yuan, let have some fun first. Heh! I''m so happy to see you here¡­"

    And Shui Xisi hadshed furiously at Ji Yuan and was whipping him, breaking through his weak profound animus and causing him to yell aloud with great pain.

    "Wait stop!!! You are real alright¡­" Ji Yuan muttered. "Only Sisi will use such a weapon of torture¡­"

    Shui Xisi was frowning however. "You are not Ji Yuan! Why are you so weak? The real Ji Yuan will never say he is in pain!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That is because I''ve just been through a tough battle and I am currently recuperating back my profound strength. And it is slow to recuperate here."

    Bai Qianfeng''s eyes were beaming as she shed next to Ji Yuan and she had flown into his embrace immediately. "My lord, it is really you. I''ve never thought that we will actually meet here. I''m so d to see you¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Mm, he is real? And the rest as well? It is impossible, am I right to say so?" Shui Xisi was looking confused. "We shouldn''t even meet at all."

    Ji Yuan patted Qianfeng immediately as though she was still in her spirit fox form due to habit and Qianfeng quietly bit his fingers without any of the other maidens noticing.

    "We are actually attracted by the sounds of battle and havee here to investigate." Bai Qianfeng looked up to him as she exined.

    Little Princess nodded and exined. "We have been through a tough battle just now. Sister Feiyue and Ji Yuan are now recuperating while I''m keeping an eye over them."

    Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng stared at the destruction in the vicinity and the remnants of arge deste beast as they began to wonder together. "What had happened here? This looks like a major battle had happened here. You have encountered a deste beast?"

    "We have just fought with Yin Wei." Ji Yuan sighed softly. "He had grown so strong and he turned into a metamorph beast. Luckily we have managed to kill him."

    Bai Qianfengughed softly. "He is merely a single peaked great saint. The three of you can handle him together. Metamorph beast or not."

    "No." Ji Yuan shook his head. "He is much more powerful than ourst battle¡­"

    "Yea!" Ling Feiyue and Little Princess said at the same time too.

    "What is going on?" Shui Xisi asked curiously. "There is a massive aftermath of profound energies here¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue quickly exined to them what had happened earlier.

    After exining how they met and had fought Yin Wei, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng also exined how they had met as well.

    They had the same situation as Ji Yuan and they had misunderstood each other as enemies but they had quickly realized their mistakes.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin. "Is this really part of the trial? But isn''t this a little too weird? It is as though the trial wants us to kill one another¡­"

    The other maidens were equally perplexed because none of them had expected to meet one another here¡­

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng had lifted up her head as she disyed a sudden chuckle. "I think I may know why now."

    Everyone: ???

    "Xiang Li, can I ask you some questions?" Bai Qianfeng asked.

    Xiang Li immediately popped outside and chuckled. "Xiang Li missed all of you! I wanted toe out to greet all of you but my Big Brother asks me not toe out."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "And what are you doing now?"

    "My best friend Qianfeng has asked me toe out so I''m out." Xiang Li chuckled.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Traitor¡­I wonder sometimes if you''re my spirit entity or theirs."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I belong to everyone!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng quietly said to Xiang Li. "Are you the one that cause us to be at the same ce?"

    Ji Yuan and all the other maidens were jolted and they were all looking at Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes. "No. Did I?"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly as she asked patiently. "Did you wish that we can all be here together in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Xiang Li immediately replied with great delight. "Yea! Of course! Do you know when I know that all of us will be in different ces, Xiang Li is so sad. So sad, you know! I wish that everyone who knows my Big Brother and thinks of him will be with him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!"

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi were all looking at one another now. They finally had an answer; Xiang Li is the True Goddess'' Tear and she can cause things to happen. This may be her wish.

    Ji Yuan was unhappy that Xiang Li had used her wish and he was afraid that she may disappear. So he quickly said. "Don''t anyhow wish for things. You will get bad karma in return."

    Discreetly, he was quietly checking if Xiang Li had be younger and he was upset but he kept his emotions in check...

    Xiang Li said pitifully. "I am only hoping that everyone can be together¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng quicklyforted Xiang Li. "Xiang Li is the best. It is all due to your blessings that we are able to adventure together¡­"

    Quietly, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were all nodding and their eyes were beaming with emotions. Silently they were all saying, thank you Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan was suddenly saying with a dark look. "Wait a minute. I don''t remember that I am such a great friend with Yin Wei¡­"

    All the maidens were rolling their eyes¡­

    Yea, that is right. Howe Yin Wei is in the picture?

    Xiang Li asked innocently. "Maybe because Big Brother likes Yin Wei?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Little Princess was giggling all of a sudden. "I think I know why now. That is because Yin Wei has been thinking of our Ji Yuan here, that''s why¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes in disgust.

    Surely he''s not thinking of screwing my asshole. What a fetish that Yin Wei has got in his twisted head¡­

    But he was pping his hand on the ground in the next instant. "Dang! So it means that Guo Taiming and Li Ye do not miss me at all¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "I don''t think so. It just means they are not intensely thinking of you. Come to think of that, Yin Wei must have hated you so much."

    Ji Yuan immediately turned to Xiang Li. "I know that there is no next time but can you please exclude my enemies from any of your wish list?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Alright Big Brother!" Actually Xiang Li did not understand what she had done and she thought that Ji Yuan was only teasing her.

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly looking at Shui Xisi with a wry smile. "We know why we are here but why are you here?"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi had a slight flush as she pointed at her barbed feather whip. "Can''t you tell that I''m his most hated enemy as well?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the other maidens were allughing jovially; they obviously know that Shui Xisi was lying as they had caught her smiling and grinning at Ji Yuan all too many times. It was a secret that all of them knew but had kept quiet over it. They were simply waiting for Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi toe clean over it.

 Chapter 208 Choosing A Trial Party Leader

    It is said there are eighteen celestial fraternities big and small that are taking part in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and there are always more than a hundred thousand golden celestials.

    Even though it is difficult to meet a fellow associate cultivator inside but there will always be thousands if not hundreds in any same trial level due to therge numbers of golden celestials.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a ce where the golden celestials can take their trials and be rewarded handsomely. Therefore there is a powerful restriction in this ce that only allows only the golden celestials to enter this ce. With such a powerful restriction, the rewards for the trials naturally must be satisfying to the golden celestials in order to entice them inside.

    It is said that every golden celestial must at least enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth once in their lifetime in order to pass through their rite of passage to be a true celestial.

    There are also many golden celestials that will always enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth each time it has appeared, especially the autonomous celestials.

    The trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth are never easy, especially the encounters with the other golden celestials. It is even harder when there are a huge disparity between the fifth realm cultivators and the seventh realm cultivators.

    Therefore there is another restriction. The higher the cultivation realm of the cultivator, the slower their recovery rate is. The higher level that they are in, the more that they will be restricted.

    Although a seventh realm golden celestial saint is much superior to the fifth realm and the six realm golden celestials but they had to be careful about using their profound strength recklessly because of the restriction to their profound strength recovery. This restriction is ced mainly to prevent them from constantly looking to fight with the other lower cultivation realm cultivators.

    Most of the other celestial fraternities had another rule of their own and that is an unspoken rule; the cultivators from their same celestial fraternity should not fight against one another except for some exceptions.

    The Deste Celestial Fraternity prevents cultivators below the seventh realm from fighting against one another in the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This is to prevent their fraternity cultivators from killing all their brightest talents as golden celestials are too precious to lose.

    The only exceptional are those golden celestials that are on the hit list like the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    But they are always stories of cultivators pretending to be golden celestials of a certain celestial n or another celestial fraternity to sow discord. Therefore there is always a general mistrust among the golden celestials that are taking the trials.

    So there is another hidden rule in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; fifth realm cultivators should not be attacked unless they are courting their own deaths. Anyone that attacks a fifth realm cultivator may have a malicious intention and everyone should gang up against the offender.

    Little Princess said. "The trials inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth willst for 6 months. In theory we''ve got only 1 month for each level but if we want to go to the upper level swiftly, we should advance quickly for the lower levels so that we have much more time for the upper levels. It is because this will make sense since the upper levels will be much harder and we will spend a much longer time there. Does everyone agree?"

    Ji Yuan nodded and said. "I do agree but we also need to appoint a trial leader. Therefore I suggest that I will lead our party¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted with a soft chuckle. "Since I am a peaked great saintess, I should be the leader of our trial party¡­"

    "No! I should be the trial leader. I''m also a peaked great saintess so I should take charge." Bai Qianfeng insisted.

    Little Princess immediately frowned. "It should be the one with the most trial experiences. Cultivation level does not have anything to do with this."

    "I agree! I have been to thirty-three trials and have extensive experiences in the trials." Ling Feiyue chuckled. "I should be the trial leader."

    Shui Xisi and Little Princess were astonished. "Serious? You have been to so many trials?"

    Ling Feiyue grinned. "That''s right. I have the most extensive experiences in the trials¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng disagreed. "Sorry Sister Feiyue. Although I don''t have much experiences for trials but this is an immortal trial and I know more about immortal trials than anyone of you."

    Shui Xisi immediately frowned. "This is talking big!"

    Ji Yuan was also interrupting. "Listen to me. I should be the trial leader. That is because I am your lord except for Sisi here and moreover I am really good in the trials¡­"

    Shui Xisi protested immediately. "Then how many trials have you been?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Five?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Are you joking? That is too little¡­"

    Even Little Princess was saying. "Ji Yuan, you move to one side first. You''re too inexperienced¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng agreed. "Yes it is too inexperienced. No wonder you are acting so noobish inside the Dream Trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue immediately came to the defense of Ji Yuan, "Actually our lord here had been to three of the lower trials a hundred times each. He is quite experienced¡­"

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were allughing jovially. "It is just some low level trials and should not be counted as having experiences. I''ll suggest we remove the low level trials as counting as experiences¡­."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately took out his divine sword. "Look! I should be the leader because I have an immortal-step divine sword..."

    Shui Xisi interrupted him as she immediately took out her immortal-step divine sword. "I have one too plus my cultivation level is higher than you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue said. "This can''t do. I suggest we vote for the leader instead. This is the fairest."

    Shui Xisi hummed, "You are all ganging on me because you are all sisters and are all close to Ji Yuan!"

    "But this is only fair. If not we will be struck in this ce." Ling Feiyue pointed out.

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng slowly nodded and they were forced to agree.<sub> </sub>

    Eventually even Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan nodded their heads too.

    Therefore they had decided on a secret vote to pick a leader.

    And the result of the voting revealed that everyone got a vote.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was startled. "Are you all voting for yourself?!"

    "Aren''t you as well?" The other maidens pointed out.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Let''s have a revote again but this time, no voting to yourself." Ji Yuan suggested.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "I have a better idea. Why don''t we ask Xiang Li to vote for the leader instead since she likes all of us?" She was confident that Xiang Li would vote for her because they are the best of friends.

    "That is a good idea." Ling Feiyue and Little Princess agreed.

    Shui Xisi was the only one that had protested but she was in the minority so her protest did not count.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan agreed as well so he called to his soul sea. "Xiang Li, please appear and vote for a trial party leader among us. We need you to choose a wise and brilliant leader."

    p Xiang Li curiously appeared and asked. "Appoint a trial party leader?"</anda>

    Ling Feiyue smiled. "That''s right. Can you help us?"

    Little Princess put on her most mesmerizing wiles. "My dear Xiang Li, do you like me?"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately. "We are choosing a capable leader and not a beauty contest. Choose me Xiang Li!"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled to Xiang Li. "Do you agree that I will make the best leader?"

    Xiang Li nodded immediately with a soft chuckle. "Yes, yes!"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Bai Qianfengughed. "Then can I be the party leader?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Can I vote myself to be the trial party leader? I''m really good with the trials¡­"

    Everyone immediately cut her short. "No! You have to vote for one of us."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Pick me Xiang Li¡­"

    "I am the best leader¡­"

    "Xiang Li, do you love me?"

    "Aren''t we sisters, Xiang Li?"

    Shui Xisi immediately stomped her foot. "This is too ridiculous! Why don''t we present why we are fit to be a capable leader in front of Xiang Li and let her pick one of us base on meritocracy instead? This is fairer this way."

    In the end, everyone was forced to agree with Shui Xisi; this was the fairest.

    Therefore one by one they had all prepared their cases and started to present to Xiang Li.

    Ling Feiyue delightfully said. "I have been to thirty-three trials and have extensive experiences¡­"

    Little Princessughed softly as she disyed her mesmerizing wink at Xiang Li. "All my trials are major trials and I''ve been to more than ten major trials¡­"

    When Ji Yuan saw Little Princess'' expression, he thought. "I will choose her to be the leader if she can be like this all the time¡­" It was hard to resist the mesmerizing charms from Little Princess when she had chosen to disy her feminine wiles.

    Shui Xisi put on her most impressive wiles as she giggled. "Remember that I am the Matriarch Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled gently at Xiang Li. "Aren''t we best friends? You can trust me to lead all of us out of the most perilous situations¡­"

    When it was time for Ji Yuan to present his case, he said with great confident. "I am the Great Hero Ji Yuan and everyone looks up to me¡­"

    When everyone had presented their cases to Xiang Li, they asked him. "So Xiang Li, so who will the trial party leader?"

    Xiang Liughed. "Naturally it is my Big Brother! He is the best and the most awesome!"

    All the other maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Naturally I am!"

    "From now onward, I will be your party leader and the dominant alpha of the party. All of you must listen to my instructions. Haha."

    He had said to Xiang Li in his soul sea. "Xiang Li, if you can vote for me then I can promise you that we will have the most awesome banging experiences in the trial. You won''t regret it if you vote for me!"

    Xiang Li asked innocently. "And what if I do not vote for Big Brother?"

    "Then you won''t get any awesome experience because I will be a monk in the trial."

 Chapter 209 Prelude To The First Trial (1)

    Three dayster, Ji Yuan was now grumbling unhappily to himself as he scouted the surrounding terrains for any unusual signs.

    Soon in the cover of the darkness, he had found a small valley and he saw dozens of cultivators moving toward the entrance?

    "Is there a trial inside that valley?" He began to ponder.

    Finally he had spotted a trial with his divine sense; they had to find the trials quickly in order to enter the second level. The first two levels only required the cultivator toplete two trials before they could go to the next level or to exit it.

    After taking note of the location, he began to return to their hideout and he was grumbling along the way.

    He was the dominant alpha of their party and yet he was now doing the scouting job.

    He had actually instructed Sisi to do the scouting but she had protested immediately.

    "Aren''t you the leader? You should do the scouting!"

    "What kind of a logic is this?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    "Let me ask you this. Are you the alpha lion of the pride?" Shui Xisi asked.

    "Of course I am!" Ji Yuan replied with any hesitation.

    "Then go and do your territorial patrol. Don''t you know that it is supposed to be the job of the alpha lion to be the guardian of the pride and to do territory patrols?" She pointed out.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What if your loved ones are attacked because you''re not doing your job properly? Buy Feiyue some time for her to regain some of her profound strength."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know. I am also trying to regain my profound strength too. This stupid trial actually burns my spiritual sea¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted him. "But I don''t see you doing any cultivation?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; after three days of cultivation, he was a little restless and he was distracted by the feminine wiles of his party and he was spending more time chatting with Xiang Li than cultivating.

    Without Qianfeng to serve as his pillow, he could not cultivate well and his insomnia was even worse than before. He really had an insomnia problem due to long years of stress but he had since developed a way to cultivate with his eyes opened.

    Therefore the other maidens had misunderstood that he was not cultivating but was lecherously starting at them.

    They were only half right; Ji Yuan was lecherously looking at them while cultivating as well.

    "Ji Yuan, you have the best stealth. You should do the scouting¡­"

    "We''re sure that you can outrun your foes¡­"

    "Can you bear to see us taking any risk¡­"

    "Since you''re so restless, why don''t you scout the terrains for us?"

    "This is the time for you to prove your leadership to us¡­"

    "Didn''t you always say that you have the sharpest eyesight than any one of us?"

    "There are so many dangerous herds of deste beasts around and their sense of smell is so sharp..."

    Ji Yuan muttered. "I don''t understand why you are sprinkling perfumes when you know that there are herds of deste beasts around..."

    That was why this dominant alpha leader of the party was now doing the scouting and was now grumbling to himself. "These maidens are all ganging against me because I''m the only male in the group. Luckily I still have Xiang Li on my side."

    Xiang Li chuckled. "I am always on Big Brother''s side! So when are you going to do your banging? I''ve been waiting for three days."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Can''t you see that Sisi is there? With her around, how do I bang them?"

    Xiang Li suggested with a sly look. "Why don''t you bang her instead? Make her yours."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered. "If it is not for that stupid Yin Wei that day, she would already been my woman."

    "You can always bang her when you''re taking her out for a patrol." Xiang Li chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    There was a hesitation in his dull countenance before he burst outughing. "Xiang Li, you''re really a genius! Haha. Next time I will do as you''ve suggested. Haha."

    "Hehe. Of course I''m a genius!" Xiang Liughed.

    Ji Yuan was extremely light hearted whenever he was talking to Xiang Li. It was because before he had met Xiang Li, he always had a lot of conflicting thoughts and many heart demons. With Xiang Li acting as his heart demon, he had no more heart demon anymore.

    As he neared their hideout, he began to tiptoe slowly.

    "Big Brother, what are you doing?" Xiang Li asked curiously. "Why are you moving so quietly? They are waiting for us, you know. We have to share with them the good news of our tremendous find!"

    "Maybe they are gossiping about me now. It is best that we don''t give them any advance warning." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Why will they gossip about you?" Xiang Li asked.

    "Because they love me, that''s why. Haha. Remember what Jiajia had said to us?" Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes and thought; so it is alright for me to gossip about Big Brother too?

    When Ji Yuan had nearly approached their hideout where the rest of the maidens were camping inside a grove, he was proven right; they were indeed gossiping about him.

    "Sisi, why are you here with us and not going to the trial on your own?" Ling Feiyue was asking Shui Xisi.

    "Because Ji Yuan is so fun to be with. Hehe." Shui Sisi replied very frankly. "Do you know that he has that funny expression whenever I hit him?"<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess giggled. "Maybe you have misunderstood or something. He is a narcissistic. So when you have hit him, he must be wondering why he is not being admired by you."

    Bai Qianfeng was giggling too. "Maybe he is too thick skin not to know?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I will be a narcissistic? What rubbish are they talking about? I haven''t been narcissistic for a long time ever since I have lost my beautiful beard!

    He said to Xiang Li with a jovial chuckle in his soul sea. "Never mind, I can settle them easily because I am smarter than them."

    Xiang Li asked curiously. "Oh?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "As long as Jiajia, Qianxue and Yan''Er aren''t among them, they are like a pile of loose sands, heh!"

    "Why?"

    "Because they are three smart maidens. Haha. The rest aren''t as smart as them." Ji Yuanughed.

    He continued to say with a grin. "Jiajia is so smart. There is no doubt about this. But Jiajia will never gossip about me because she is always so busy with her own affairs. As for Yan''Er, she isn''t in their group so she won''t gossip about me. But Qianxue, she is always giving ideas to Feiyue and the rest. Without her around, haha, I will have an easier time."

    Qianxue can really persist in asking the same question until she has an answer. Ji Yuan is really scared of her questioning sometimes. And she has made use of Feiyue''s boldness to press him for answers all the time.

    Qianxue may look as smart as Feiyue but she is smarter and she can really catch Ji Yuan''s guards down with her endless smart wiles.

    The face of an angel but the cunning of a devil; that is what Ji Yuan''s impression of Qianxue is.

    "My women are divided into two camps. I call them the MK and the Nsefu. Little Princess, Feiyue, Qianxue, Tianshui and Qianfeng belongs to the MK camp while Chengxi, Yan''Er, Jiajia, Sisi, Wuwu and Baiyue belongs to the Nsefu camp."

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Therefore we must be wary of the MK camp but right now Qianxue is not around so the MK camp is at its weakest and it is the best time for us to attack them."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Best time to attack them?

    Ji Yuanughed jovially when he saw Xiang Li''s perplexed look in his soul sea. He knew that she did not understand what he was trying to say and he wasughing jovially.

    "Do you know what Ji Yuan''s weakness is?" Shui Xisi was heard giggling.

    "You''re asking about our lord weakness in front of you?" Ling Feiyue frowned.

    Little Princessughed softly. "Why do you want to know about our lord''s weakness for?"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled. "He is a lecherous cultivator for sure."

    No, I am not! Ji Yuan protested silently when he had heard Qianfeng. I actually have no weakness¡­

    "Well, don''t let Ji Yuan knows about this." Ling Feiyue chuckled. "I''ve heard from Sister Yan''Er that Ji Yuan is usually very cautious but he has one fatal weakness."

    She had purposely paused to let her message sink in everyone''s consciousness.

    "What weakness?" All the other maidens were now asking curiously.

    Ling Feiyueughed before she lowered her voice to say. "He gets extremely touchy whenever he learns that someone will green him."

    "Is this even a weakness? Aren''t all men like this?" Little Princess asked curiously.

    "I have heard from Sister Yan''Er that Ji Yuan actually has an ex-sweetheart before¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he promptly walked within their detection and Ling Feiyue had immediately kept quiet, causing all the other maidens to keep quiet.

    Heughed as he returned to camp. "Good news. I have found the trial entrance¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not want anyone to mention his ex-sweetheart. Actually he was fine with their break up since their feeling was not that deep and he had not touched her too. He totally understood why she had chosen to break off with him. After all Jin Yilong was obviously the better choice at that time.

    He had lost his first time to Little Princess and the thought that Little Princess was dual cultivating with other men had disgusted him in the past. That was the cause of his heart demon. It was never his ex-sweetheart and that was something that his Yan''Er and even Chengxi had misunderstood as he had never mentioned Little Princess since she was his shame.

    Therefore he had med all his entric behavior on his ex-sweetheart in front of Chengxi and Yan''Er since he could not tell them about Little Princess or Saintess Yuluo (Yuxian).

    Ji Yuan was frowning silently. "Even Yan''Er is sharing gossips with Feiyue. This is too ridiculous. They are all one big gang¡­"

    -

    In the secret base of the Evil Cultivation Pce;

    ? The Great Demon Lord was sipping his wines and he was saying to the sentient shadow that was standing next to him. "The two of you have different roles to y but your role is the biggest one. It is time for the dragon to y the phoenix."

    The Dragon King slowly nodded before marching off without a word.

    The Great Demon Lord smirked. "For a long time, this pesky phoenix has been screwing our ns. But she did not know that we have been conceding to flush her out. Now it is the time for us to retaliate."

    The setbacks of the Evil Cultivation Pce were not a concern to the Great Demon Lord. On the other hand, it was a clever chess move of his to flush out all his hidden enemies that would be a threat to his real scheme.

    With that he had raised his chess forward as he said coolly. "Check mate."

 Chapter 210 Prelude To The First Trial (2)

    Ji Yuan and his party had quickly dodged the herds of roaming deste beasts that were in the savanna. They had to move cautiously despite that the grasses were taller than them because there were simply too many of these deste beasts.

    p Every time the winds change its direction, Ji Yuan would frown. "If these deste beasts pick up our scents, it must be because of the four of you."</anda>

    The four maidens were looking quite sheepish at one another.

    He had not once but several times said to Shui Xisi. "You look totally fine without any makeup. Why are you applying makeup for?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "We are taking a trial here. Why are the four of you grooming for? Are you trying to get the attention of the others?"

    Everyone could tell that Ji Yuan was in a dark mood.

    As Ji Yuan led them to the entrance of the valley where the trial was, the four maidens began to whisper to one another. "What is wrong with Ji Yuan? Did he eat the wrong medicine? He doesn''t sound too happy¡­"

    "Is it because I had consumed tens of thousands of high grade spirit stones to replenish my profound strength and he is angry with me?" Ling Feiyue asked timidly.

    "But he didn''t say a word when you are using it." Shui Xisi pointed out. "And he is also using tens of thousands as well."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "He did say I am a wastrel in a low voice¡­"

    "I''ve got an idea." Little Princess said with a soft chuckle. "Watch me."

    Little Princess giggled softly before she moved forward to rub Ji Yuan with her body. "My lord Ji Yuan, are you alright? You don''t look too happy."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Little Princess with a soft frown. "Of course I am alright. Do you think that it is easy being the defender of our group? I have to do so many things."

    Little Princess whispered shyly. "I know you are doing a lot of things. When you are less busy, shall we?"

    Immediately Ji Yuan was spirited as heughed. "I am totally fine. Haha. Why would I be unhappy?" He had caught Little Princess'' hint immediately.

    When Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng saw Ji Yuan suddenly had a change in his expressions, they rolled their eyes immediately and they too were rushing forward to rub their bodies against him. "My lord, you are our great lord and we fear that you''ve been too hardworking¡­"

    They immediately knew what he wascking; Ji Yuan needs their attentions.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud. "Haha, not at all¡­"

    Little Princess was quietly winking at Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng; now they know what to do in the future.

    Shui Xisi stomped her foot as she cursed silently. "I just know it. All men are lecherous!"

    Ji Yuan''s mood had indeed improved greatly afterward.

    "Just leave the deste beasts to me. Haha."

    "Scents? No problem at all! I will make the deste beasts eat shit! Haha..."

    Soon they were at the entrance of the valley and they saw several cultivators.

    There were dozens of cultivators that were already at the entrance and they were all studying a cliff that was in front of them. Next to the cliff, were several moving profound mes that were continuous shooting from the ground and blocking the entrance of the valley.

    When the cultivators saw Ji Yuan and his group approaching, they were quite startled; it was because they were all alone where else this seemed to be a group of five.

    These cultivators were all over the Celestial Realm and they barely know one another. In fact, they were all trying to avoid one another lest they identally stepped on one another''s toes.

    Most of them were even quite civil as they studied the inscriptions on the cliffs together and they all avoided looking at one another.

    However Ji Yuan and his group were just too ncing; the group was bigger than any of the cultivators presented and the cultivators were checking if they were a threat. At the same time, the four maidens that were with Ji Yuan were really too beautiful and many of the cultivators were all gasping, even the female cultivators.

    All the cultivators that were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had all recognized Ji Yuan. It was because he was too renownedtely; from killing Saintess Yuluo to bing a Great Hero that yed an epic eighth rank metamorph monster.

    Ji Yuan immediately approached the nearest bearded cultivator as he recognized his distinctive beard that was a tell sign that he was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. "Brother, you''re from the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Am I right?"

    The reason why Ji Yuan had approached him was because he had wanted to obtain some free information about the trial.

    The beard cultivator smiled weakly. He was actually a saint cultivator but he was smiling weakly in the presence of Ji Yuan. "I am¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. It is so good to see someone from my celestial fraternity here. Which celestial n are you from?"

    The bearded cultivator did not dare to lie to Ji Yuan so he replied nervously. "Mystic Profound Pavilion¡­"

    Ji Yuan raised his eyebrows and frowned softly. "Isn''t that Jin Yilong''s celestial n? Is he in the trial as well?"

    The bearded cultivator replied nervously. "Yes¡­yes¡­he is taking his trial as well¡­" When he saw that Ji Yuan had raised his eyebrows, he was extremely nervous.

    "Oh well. Wish him good luck and wish me good luck as well. Haha." Ji Yuanughed as he gave the bearded cultivator a hearty pat before he grinned back. "And you as well. And what is your name?"

    The bearded saint cultivator immediately said. "I am just a lowly cultivator that isn''t worth mentioning¡­"

    He quickly bowed respectfully with his hands and said politely. "This trial is a little hard for me. I think I will go elsewhere."

    With that he had quickly exited the valley.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The bearded saint cultivator quickly shed out of the valley and after making sure that he was not being followed by Ji Yuan, he heaved a soft sigh.

    He had broken into cold sweat. "I am so lucky to escape with my life¡­"

    He had received a secret grey card and inside the grey card was his secret mission from his sect master; kill Ji Yuan at all costs!

    The bearded saint cultivator was muttering silently. "Sect Master Jin Tianzong must be joking with me. Even though I am a saint but Ji Yuan is a great saint now. He has an immortal-step divine sword too and he is also with Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­she is also a great saintess. This secret mission is a total suicide mission¡­"

    "Even Jian Lindong with all his profound treasures can''t even defeat Ji Yuan...I am merely a lowly saint cultivator...in front of Ji Yuan, I dare not even call myself a golden saint..."

    "I just pretended that I have never seen Ji Yuan before¡­I don''t want to be public enemy¡­killing or attacking Ji Yuan will make me the number one public enemy in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­how can I cultivate in peace in the future then?"

    While he was saying that, several cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had also left the valley hastily; they too had a secret mission and that was to kill Ji Yuan. But they had an even more personal secret mission that was unknown to their own sect masters and that was to avoid Ji Yuan at all costs.

    "I have never met Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I am only here to take my trial and to find profound treasures¡­"

    Even if a great saint power cultivator were to encounter Ji Yuan, he would be thinking of avoiding Ji Yuan as well. It was because the immortal-step sword in Ji Yuan''s hand may be able to negate their advantage plus Ji Yuan now had a sword spirit that could strengthen his sword''s profound power.

    Even a great saintess like Saintess Fang Zhenfei and several great saints that were grouped together could not kill an epic eighth rank metamorph monster but Ji Yuan was able to do so, on his own. Therefore even a great saint would find it wiser to avoid confrontation with Ji Yuan.<sub> </sub>

    It did not matter if Ji Yuan''s most powerful sword profound art was easy to evade for most of the saint cultivators. The point was, they had to avoid taking the risk.

    Also, Ji Yuan was a renowned Great Hero of the Deste Celestial Fraternity now as dered by Diviner Mo Ming. Therefore it was wiser to be in Ji Yuan''s good books.

    Therefore all the cultivators that had received the grey card to kill Ji Yuan were all quietly quitting the valley as though they had never seen Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was frowning when he saw that a few cultivators were leaving all of a sudden. He thought. "Is this trial really so difficult? It is only a level 1 trial¡­"

    But he did not have the chance to think further when he was suddenly mobbed by several cultivators, both men and women from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. "Great Hero Ji Yuan, you are also here? We are so d to have a chance to meet you in person!"

    Where there were enemies from the Deste Celestial Fraternity, there were also friends.

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed. "I just happen to be here. Please continue with your trials."

    All the cultivators from the other celestial fraternities were startled by themotions as they stared at Ji Yuan.

    "What is going on?"

    "They seem to be from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I recognize their signature beards¡­"

    "But some of the men including that handsome cultivator are beardless¡­"

    "Is he famous?"

    "Why are they greeting him as though he is someone famous?"

    "He must a high level cultivator or from one of the more famous major celestial n¡­"

    "Actually he is quite handsome¡­"

    "The four maidens that are behind him are all great beauties as well¡­"

    "Howe he is in a group?"

    "Maybe he is lucky to find some friends?"

    "It seems that he is so popr that it is quite easy for him to find a group faster than anyone of us¡­"

    "Are you sure that he is from the Deste Celestial Fraternity? They look down on beardless cultivator¡­"

    "Only a bearded cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity is to be respected there. That''s what I have heard¡­"

    "Who is this guy?"

    Ji Yuan patted thest of the cultivators that had surrounded him. "Thank you for the greetings. I need to focus on the trials now. Haha. Wish you all good luck!"

    Ling Feiyue muttered to the other three maidens. "Ji Yuan is so famous now. Did you see the looks of adtions that are from the other maidens? They are literally throwing themselves at him."

    Shui Xisi cursed softly. "Yea! They are too shameless!"

    Little Princess giggled. "If they are shameless then what about you? I can''t remember that you have a rtionship with our lord."

    Shui Xisi blinked her eyes before sheughed weakly. "I am his enemy and I am feeling unjust for the three of you."

    Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "What are you doing over there for? Come and take a look!" Ji Yuan frowned when he saw that the four maidens were still standing at the entrance of the valley and did not make a move to the cliff where the inscriptions were.

    Only when Ji Yuan had called them, did they make a move toward the inscriptions on the cliff.

    But Ji Yuan was also approached by a beautiful maiden who looked shyly at him and she was saying to him. "Are you from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to lie to the beautiful maiden so he replied. "That''s right."

    The beautiful maiden slowly nodded before she smiled. "You seem to be really popr with many. I''m from the Nine Celestial Fraternity and I''m Leng Qiuyue. Do you know of a cultivator by the name of Lu Qingyun? He is also from the Nine Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chins before he replied slowly, "I do know one and he is with a maiden by the name of Fan Yuqing."

    Leng Qiuyue was excited immediately. "Then do you know if he will be here as well?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I actually do not know. I didn''t ask him. But I guess that he will be here?"

    Leng Qiuyue averted her eyes with a soft sigh before she walked away. "Thank you¡­"

    "You''re wee." Ji Yuan smiled.

    "Who is this beautiful maiden?" Ling Feiyue asked as soon as she was next to him.

    "Yea. Who is she? You look so friendly toward her." Little Princess hummed.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "She is looking for my Brother Lu Qingyun actually."

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were startled. "She is a friend of Lu Qingyun?"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulder and replied. "I think so. Let''s take a look at the inscriptions first."

    He noticed that Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were already reading the inscriptions and they were not bothered by the attention that he was getting.

    Reading the inscriptions, Ji Yuan learnt that they were now attempting the Trial of the Heavenly Fire which guarded a tomb. The entrance of this tomb was guarded by pirs of Heavenly Fire. The inscriptions actually gave a hint on the timing of the Heavenly Fire and indicated that at a certain timing the Heavenly Fires were illusions and it was safe to cross; twenty times the fire, five blinks of an illusion.

    In order toplete the Trial of the Heavenly Fire, the cultivators had to enter the tomb to reach the end point.

    Other than the basic info, the inscriptions also left behind plenty of useful insights on the profound mes and a way to counter the heavenly fire using the profound defenses of the cultivators. Hence, there were many cultivators that were meditating at the cliff now in a hope to gain an insight or a breakthrough.

    There were also many cultivators that were staring at the pirs of fire and were counting the pirs of fire. However they were unsure if they were right.

    Ji Yuan turned his attention to the pirs of fire that were guarding the entrance of the valley. There were actually three ways to cross into the valley.

    One: Do as the inscription is advising. This would mean that the cultivator must have a good eyesight and he must count quickly. Within five blinks of an eye, it would be safe to cross. Twenty times the fire would likely to mean that there should be twenty pirs of fire before it is safe to cross. The biggest drawback is, Ji Yuan cannot be sure if he is right.

    Two: Project a strong profound defense and risk crossing into the valley.

    Three: Skip through the pir of fire by disying the lightless profound art to the best ability of the cultivator.

    Ji Yuan turned to the four maidens to ask them. "So, which method will you be using? And who is staying?"

 Chapter 211 Trial Of The Heavenly Fire

    All four of the maidens replied at almost the same time. "I''m taking this trial."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he said. "Be careful and don''t force yourself please. If you think you cannot handle it, quickly make a U-turn. You''re all great saintess here and probably won''t be killed so easily."

    After sketching his legs and body for a short while, Ji Yuan had walked to the pirs of heavenly fire.

    His actions had immediately aroused the interests of all the cultivators who were watching the entrance keenly and they were all curious on how Ji Yuan was going to ovee the first of the many trials that was in this ce.

    Ji Yuan simply dashed across the random pirs heavenly fires that were continuous shooting from the ground.

    In just three blinks of an eye, he had reached the other side in a triumphant move as he turned around to wink at the four maidens!

    It was like he was saying; See! Beat that!

    Xiang Li was praising Ji Yuan. "Big Brother, you are so impressive!"

    All the cultivators that were watching were all gasping with shock; most of them had never seen anyone with such superb lightless profound skill. Most cultivators would rather train themselves in power cultivation than the useless lightless profound arts which may not bring them any insignificant benefit except for running away.

    Little Princess and Shui Xisi were gasping too. Ji Yuan''s lightless profound skill was really too impressive¡­

    He had barely even sweat as he dashed through the heavenly fires!

    Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue were aware of Ji Yuan''s astonishing swiftness and lightless profound skill so they were not surprised by him.

    Ling Feiyue was the second one to move through the pirs of heavenly fires and like Ji Yuan, she hadpletely evaded the pirs of heavenly fires that were randomly shooting out of the ground. Her lightless profound art was even more impressive than Ji Yuan!

    But only Ling Feiyue knew that Ji Yuan was not even disying his best. She just wanted to be more impressive than him so that she could get his attention.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Do you always have to be such a show off every single time?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "I can''t help it at all."

    All the cultivators were gasping at the sight of Ling Feiyue who crossed through the pir of heavenly fires with much more grace than Ji Yuan and she had even beaten him by one blink of an eye to reach the other end of the valley.

    Little Princess was the next to try the trial of the heavenly fires. She mustered her golden animus and she swiftly moved through the heavenly fires as though it was just child y.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; the profound defense of the Evil Cultivation Pce was really impressive. It was no wonder that Yin Wei had such astonishing profound defense. This must be their secret sect''s divine art.

    Shui Xisi was the next one to attempt the trial and she did it by swinging her whip around her. Strangely, there was a sudden burst of profound energies around her that caused all the heavenly fires to extinguish and she was soon on the other side.

    Little Princess, Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue were all astonished by her disy as they silently thought. "What the heck is her skill?"

    Shui Xisi had just disyed her Divine Exaltation Miracle Art to neutralize all the profound energies temporary. This was her secret trump card in oveing this trial.

    All the onlookers were astonished and were bewildered. This group of cultivators was all unbelievable strong and they did not even spent a lot of time to study the inscriptions!

    Bai Qianfeng quietly observed the heavenly fires before she calmly walked through the heavenly fires harmlessly.

    Everyone: ¡­

    "She has solved the inscriptions?"

    Bai Qianfeng could use exactly the same method as what Ji Yuan, Little Princess and Shui Xisi had done to ovee the heavenly fires but she had chosen to beat it by following exactly what the inscriptions had hinted.

    The reason why there were so many cultivators that were meditating in front of the cliff was because the inscriptions offered a clue on how to beat the heavenly fire and many of the cultivators were meditating to gain the insight.

    Most of the cultivators presented were only fifth realm golden celestials therefore they did not have high profound recovery, formidable profound defenses or trained as hard as Ji Yuan to develop his lightless profound art to such speed and evasion. Therefore they could only patiently studied the inscriptions.

    The benefits to solving the inscriptions were also immerse and that was why there were also many golden celestials that were of the six and seventh realm studying the inscriptions; if they could gain a valuable insight, their cultivation would be able to increase and this would also increase the chance of their future breakthrough.

    But for Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi, they did not want to waste days, weeks and even months of their time toprehend the dao behind the inscriptions as they were already great saints and saintesses.

    As Bai Qianfeng is an immortal, she had understood the inscriptions instantly and she had chosen to y by its rules.

    Ji Yuan asked her with a weak smile. "You have managed to crack the inscriptions? I have thought that you can only manage to ovee the heavenly fires only if you can count twenty columns of heavenly fires."<sub> </sub>

    Bai Qianfeng immediately giggled with amusement. "My lord! The twenty times means that you have to use your divine sense to gauge the temperature of the first heavenly fire by twenty times then you can cross safety. It has nothing to do with counting the number of heavenly fires!"

    When many of the cultivators who were secretly eavesdropping on them had heard Bai Qianfeng, they were secretly delighted. So that was how the trial can be ovee!

    They had all caught the hint immediately. They had to use their divine sense to gauge the first heavenly fire and then find the heavenly fire that was twenty times stronger. Once their divine sense could sense it then it would mean that it was now safe to cross for a short period of time, notsting more than five blinks of an eye.

    A cultivator nearby was clearly overjoyed. It was because he often took months to unravel the insight of a trial. Even though he is a golden supremacy but he was always struck in the first level. Finally he had a chance to enter the second level!

    Ji Yuan returned a sheepish look to Bai Qianfeng as heughed. "Haha. I didn''t know. I should have asked you first."

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled as she pressed her body on him. "So my lord, can I be the leader?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said in a low voice. "If you can satisfy me¡­"

    "Shameless!..." Bai Qianfeng walked off immediately.

    Ji Yuan muttered after her. "It isn''t like we''re not together. Are we still dating?"

    Qianfeng was just being shy that was all. After all, Shui Xisi was also in their party so she did not dare to flirt with Ji Yuan too much.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan and the rest, actually Ji Yuan was actually right in his first guess. It was because the inscriptions were just a red herring to confuse the cultivators from their perceptions. Sometimes it was easier than it had looked!

    Ji Yuan saw that there were dozens of footprints on the ground ahead of them.

    "We are not the first¡­" he muttered.

    The stronger cultivators would have already cleared this simple trial by now. After all they had taken three days of rest to cultivate back their profound strength after the fight with Yin Wei.

    As they moved into the valley, Ji Yuan was exchanging romantic nces with all four of the maidens who were all looking with a blissful look at him; they were taking the trials together and they were all excited.

    Even though they had a tiny hup along the way due to their headstrong behavior but this was understandable; they were all leaders of their own sects or a lofty figure in their fraternity. That was why they all felt that they would make the better leader.

    At the same time, they were all actually trying to impress one another¡­

    Xiang Li saw their quiet and loving exchanges with their eyes so she chuckled loudly. "Don''t forget about me as well!"

    Ji Yuan felt very blissful that he had four beautiful maidens to apany him for the trials. It was as though he was not taking a trial but was on his honeymoon¡­

    Ling Feiyue was quietly holding onto Ji Yuan and she was looking up to him with her gentle eyes. She felt extremely blissful that she was taking the same trial as Ji Yuan again but yet at the same time, she felt a little sad that Qianxue had missed the trial. She would really love to have Qianxue who was her best friend to join her¡­

    Little Princess was quietly looking at Ji Yuan. She could not believe that their romantic mishaps had spanned a full three centuries. They had so many missed opportunities. In the past when the Evil Cultivation Pce had sought to seek trouble for Ji Yuan, she had intervened continuously. At one point, she was even discovered by Ji Yuan for following him and he had even misunderstood that she was sending the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce after him.

    But now she was really d in her heart; they were now finally together.

    Ji Yuan actually had a very sharp nose. He always knew when Little Princess hade to visit him in the past because he could sniff her perfume fragrance and he was extremely phobia of her. That was why he had developed insomnia eventually.

    Little Princess whispered to Ji Yuan with a seductive look, "My lord, remember your promise to me!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianxue was holding onto Ji Yuan other arm and she was cuddling tightly to him as though she was still his nine-tail spirit fox. She wished that she was his pillow and that he would hug her to bed. She had really missed the times when she had disliked Ji Yuan to no ends because he was too insufferable and she had even suspected that he did it on purpose to her.

    She muttered. "My lord¡­"

    Shui Xisi may be the odd one out so she walked in front. But Ji Yuan''s eyes were continuously looking at her butt and he was sighing. "Her butt is as beautiful as Jiajia¡­"

    Xiang Li saw what Ji Yuan was looking at and she was smiling in his soul sea. "Yeah! Beautiful butt!"

    Shui Xisi was quiet. She was really happy to be in the same trial as Ji Yuan. Until now, she could not believe that she could meet Ji Yuan so fast. She was actually looking quite dejected as she entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so much that she did not even want to bid Ji Yuan onest farewell.

    What the point of biding him farewell and good luck when they had so little chance to even meet each other in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Maybe he would get himself killed next.

    Although she was quiet, her heart was full of warmth for Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 212 Thats How Sword Saints Are Made

    The settlement camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect;

    Just before dawn, five thousands cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce had suddenlyunched a surprise attack on the settlement camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    These cultivators were all the middle and the high ranking cultivators, representing almost the entirety of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Second Citadel Lord Yin Xiong and Sagess Alyssa were the two main leaders that were leading the attacks. Among the cultivators were many sons and daughters of Yin Xiong and Yin Wei.

    They had only one objective and that was to seize Xue Qianxue.

    An attack on the settlement was never easy because there were a few hundred celestials ns that were presented.

    However, most of the major orthodox ns and even one major unorthodox n had their cultivation experts out on a hunting trip below the deste mists.

    Therefore the fierce fighters of the Evil Cultivation Pce had quickly stormed its way to the campsite of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    There were not enough cultivation experts to stop the Evil Cultivation Pce that were leading five hundred golden celestials to the attack.

    The celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are divided into major, lesser and minor celestial ns.

    Most of the golden celestials are actually concentrated by the major celestial ns and a single major celestial n can have as many as a thousand golden celestials or more. Although saints are rare but they are quitemon ce among the major celestial ns. It is because their mountains are rich with spiritual auras and their territories are also vast.

    A ce like the Five Heavens Peaks rarely has a single saint cultivator and Ji Yuan is the first in many thousands of years. Even though the Emperor Hall Sect is considered the strongest power in the Five Heavens Peaks now but it is actually considered to be only a minor celestial n; it cannot even be considered as a lesser celestial n in the eyes of the majority of the golden celestials!

    If one is to ask most of the saint cultivators where is the Five Heavens Peaks, most will have no answers. It is because in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, there are tens of thousands of celestial ns and the majorities are nameless celestial ns.

    Half of the golden celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are concentrated among the major celestial ns like the seven major orthodox ns, five major unorthodox ns, the Mo n, the three heretic pces and among some others.

    Another one third is concentrated in the lesser celestial ns and finally the rest are distributed among the minor celestial ns.

    It is actually quitemon ce in the Five Heavens Peak to have a sect master that is not even a golden celestial!

    To the majority of the cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, golden supremacies are already a lofty existence and they are often quite haughty being one as well. At least until they screwed themselves by meeting with a saint.

    However the golden supremacies of the lesser and minor celestial ns often y smart and they have twomon rules to follow:

    One: They dare not be haughty if they see any prot¨¦g¨¦s from the major celestial ns even if they are not a golden celestial.

    Two: Behave properly when in the trade cities where the major celestial ns have their presence.

    In the ces where no birds willy its eggs and where the major celestial ns would note, the golden celestials of the lesser and minor celestial ns were the gods of the cultivators.

    Usually the major celestial ns will not be bothered by them because their mountains are too poor andcking in celestial resources.

    Ji Yuan was one such golden supremacy in the past. Even though he had entered the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords and received the sword saint domain to be a Sword Saint but in the eyes of the major celestial ns, he was merely a cultivator that got lucky.

    In the world of cultivation, it is all about resources and not about luck. You can get lucky one or twice but you cannot be lucky forever.

    But back to the focus of the attack, the hundreds of celestial cultivators were to scare to stop the Evil Cultivator Pce from attacking the settlement and they were all heading like an unstoppable wave into the Spirit Blue Moon Sect!

    There were at least 7 great saints and 40 saints from the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    They had their intel prepared already; there were only four great saints in the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect; Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Ling Tianshui and Chen Yi.

    As for saints, there were only 6 in the camp. The Spirit Blue Moon Sect had actually brought only 100 golden celestials here and half of the numbers were now in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The onughter that was led by Yin Xiong was extremely swift and soon the five thousands cultivators were already storming into the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Yin Xiong shouted to his cultivators. "Find Xue Qianxue! Dead or alive, I want her body!"

    As his thousands of cultivators stormed into the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, dozens of golden celestials hade into view immediately.

    They were Jiajia and her saints, Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin and their protectors from the Celestial Orthodox Sect, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Xue Qianxue, Ling Tianshui, Chen Yi, Great Saint Jian Kang, Saint Jian Lindong, Saintess Jian Yuluo and their protectors from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, Shen Qin and his protectors from the Astonishing Sword Manor.

    Dozens of great saints and saints had immediately joined the battle, startling Yin Xiong who had a shocked expression. "Howe there are so many cultivation experts in the camp of the Spirit Blue Moon Spirit Sect?!"

    The cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce were shocked to see so many high level cultivators from several major orthodox celestial ns that were presented.

    Although the number of cultivators on the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce far outnumbered their foes but the golden celestials on the side of their foes were in greater number.

    They just could not believe that there were more than twenty great saints and more than eighty saints that were nowing to confront them.

    Saintess Yuluo and Fairy Ye Chengxi were dashing like whirlwinds into the hordes of enemy cultivators and they were greatly feared.

    Even though Saintess Yuluo had not regained her full profound strength but her sword was just too fast and deadly that she simply rippled through her targets like paper.

    Simrly even Fairy Ye Chengxi was creating havocs with her sword energies sword strokes but she was using it at point nk and it was extremely devastating.

    Hua Wuwu said to Hua Baiyue. "Howe we never know Fairy Ye Chengxi can fight so well? Her fighting style ispletely different from Ji Yuan. Ji Yuan always uses his sword energies at a distance and risks weakening his sword energies but Fairy Ye Chengxi is different. She is using her sword energies at point nk and delivering devastating attacks at her foes."

    "Cos Ji Yuan isn''t as good as Fairy Ye Chengxi." Hua Baiyue chuckled softly.

    Jiajia said with a quiet smile, "Ji Yuan, he is just ying tricks on his opponents. He is just trying to lure you into melee with him."

    "Huh?" Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue expressed a startled look at their mistress.

    "His great advantage isn''t in confronting his opponents at a range but in a melee because that is where he is at his strongest." Jiajia replied quietly. "Or else he won''t be a sword saint."

    Saintess Yuluo was now disying her sword arts. Whether it was her speed, profound power or reflexes, she was like an unstoppable force. In a blink of an eye, two saint cultivators were cut down by her.

    Many of the cultivators on both sides were startled by Saintess Yuluo''s fierce attacks that they could not believe that she was not even a great saintess yet.

    "Isn''t she Sword Saintess Yuluo?"

    "I''ve heard that she is unwell¡­but it looks like her profound strength isn''t affected¡­"

    Many of the cultivators actually did not know what went on inside the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords. They only know that that the trial inside the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords are extremely difficult to ovee and even the power cultivators will actually perish inside.

    And the sword saints do not talk of their experiences inside and they were extremely secretive about it.

    There are many rumors of the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords but only one thing is really confirmed about it, the entire ce is surrounded by deadly traps that can even kill a saint cultivator instantly.

    Those that survived to be sword saints and saintess have extremely quick reflexes and quick thinking or have exceptional survival instinct. If they are not quick enough then they would be dead inside the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords.

    And the sword stances of Sword Saintess Yuluo are three times as fast as a normal sword cultivator but the most important aspect of her sword stance is that her reaction is twice as fast as her opponents and her perception to change sword stance mid-way is also twice as agile as her opponents. And she hadbined her speed to create an implosion amount of raw profound to support her.

    Moreover Saintess Yuluo is also a raw power cultivator that have strong internal profound art and external profound power art to augment her profound power.

    When sword strokes are elerated by speed, it creates an additionalyer of profound power without the need to muster more profound strength. That is why her explosive strokes startled many of the cultivators as they had thought that she was already a great saintess.

    This creates a unique fighting style that is from Saintess Yuluo.

    As for Fairy Ye Chengxi, her reaction and speed is simr to Saintess Yuluo. After all, she is also a survivor of the Forgotten Valley of the Saint Swords. As Fairy Ye Chengxi is not as ruthless in her sword strokes as rebuked by Ji Yuan many times but her shing strokes are very beautiful, aimed at wounding and shing her opponents without killing them.

    And her shing strokes did not have any weakness because she is equally quick to withdraw to disy another sh at the same time.

    Like Ji Yuan, she is not a power cultivator or a profound defense cultivator, therefore most of her profound strength is used to recharge her profound strength into her next attack, rather than maximizing her full profound power into a single fatal attack.<sub> </sub>

    Even then, most of the same realm level golden supremacies find it hard to pin her down or to ovee her with their superior profound power; it is because Fairy Ye Chengxi is simply too heavenly to behold and it is as though they are watching a dancer that is fluttering around them. She is simply too distracting!

    And moreover like Saintess Yuluo, because her sword strokes are too swift that they cannot even see the de so they are forced to divert part of their mental concentration to their divine sense in order to gauge her attack direction.

    Once their mental focus is diverted, it is difficult for them to disy their profound arts to its full profound power unless they are willing to spend time to cultivate their mental focus like Ji Yuan. However, most are unwilling to do so because everyone believes that they have strong concentrations and it hurt their pride to practice an intricate form to buff up their mental fortitude.

    To many, this is considered to be a weakness. If you are not sick, why go to the physician?

    Moreover, the sixth realm level is considered the spirit level where the cultivator''s divine sense can be cultivated as though it is second nature to them and not much mental energies will be needed to disy their divine sense at multiple targets at the same time.

    But what is Fairy Ye Chengxi''s unique sword style?

    It is actually her unique ability to observe everyone with her divine sense at the same time. She is a keen observer. Now that she has broken through to the sixth realm spirit level, her divine sense is as sharp as most saintess and even some great saints.

    But that is onlyparable to a few targets but for Fairy Ye Chengxi, she can literally observe all her opponents with the swing of her sword because as she shes against them, she is also subtly feeling their profound power and direction of attack.

    When she is only a fifth realm golden celestial, it is still difficult for her to defeat the stronger sixth realm golden celestials, especially those that have spirit entities to support them.

    But now that she is a sixth realm golden supremacy, most of the same realm golden supremacies are notparable to her anymore and she is even stronger than most initial saints now even though she is still only an initial sixth realm golden supremacy.

    Of course Fairy Ye Chengxi fighting style do have a weakness and that is that she cannot maintain her profound strength if her opponents are persistent in wearing her down. But most men will be willing to force her to that stage since her strokes are not ruthless enough and are only focus on maiming her opponents.

    But of course, this only applies to golden celestials. Cultivators lower than the fifth realm please do not try; they would be instant kill by Fairy Ye Chengxi if she disys her attacking stance to the best.

    Hua Wuwu muttered, "Howe I feel that Ji Yuan is so weakpared to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Saintess Yuluo?"

    Hua Baiyue nodded. "I feel that anyone can go and try to kick him down. Maybe he isn''t as ruthless as Saintess Yuluo or has an evasion that is better than Fairy Ye Chengxi. Did you see how Fairy Ye Chengxi evades all the attacks? It is as though she has eyes on her back."

    Jiajia chuckled softly. "Ji Yuan always goes for instant kill. If he feels that he can''t kill his opponent, he will bid his time like a diator. He is an extremely patience cultivator and he is also willing to take hits to lull his opponents into a false sense of superiority so that he can maximum his hits to the greatest impact. That is why he can kill saints when he is only a golden supremacy."

    "Yea. He is probably trying to kill Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue a hundred years by going for his breakthrough because they are middle tier saintess." Hua Wuwu chuckled.

    Jiajia replied with a soft chuckle. "He is probably only thinking of preserving his own life against them. After all, they have no real feuds and moreover he isn''t that petty or else he won''t be called a gentleman of the sword."

    Actually Ji Yuan was called a gentleman of the sword not because he was soft toward thedies but because he had the title of the most beautiful bearded cultivators and he had many maidens that are his fan girls. However no matter how beautiful these maidens are, Ji Yuan shown no interest in them and hence he is known as the gentleman of the sword.

    Unknown to his fan girls, Ji Yuan had a bad experience in the past with Little Princess and he did not want his cultivation partner to know about his shame with Little Princess.

    That was why after Ji Yuan had cleared his misunderstandings with Little Princess, his dark blemish in his soul sea had been removed and he even had a minor breakthrough. Without that dark blemish, his spiritual sea is clearer and his profound energies are able to flow even smoother than before.

    Hua Baiyue teased her mistress. "I think our mistress is in love with Ji Yuan now. She keeps singing his praises nonstop."

    Jiajia rolled her eyes before she smiled weakly. "Why are you chatting here? Why don''t you hurry and help them?"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled. "It is almost over¡­"

    It was the truth.

    Yin Xiong had been surrounded by the four great saints of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and he was killed despite the best efforts of Sagess Alyssa to save him.

    The Sagess Alyssa had disyed a golden binding animus as she fled from the ambush.

    Jiajia gasped softly. "She has already formed the golden core and the spirit core? This Sagess Alyssa is definitely not an ordinary peaked cultivator¡­"

    In a short while, almost all the five thousand cultivators were either dead, wounded, surrendered or fled from the ambush.

    They had all won a resounding victory over the Evil Cultivation Pce and everyone was now cheering maddeningly!

    Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were weeping joyfully as they embraced each other; they had almost disable the entire forces of the Evil Cultivation Pce today and had almost avenged their dishonor. This battle was also their personal victory¡­

    But Jiajia was quiet and Hua Wuwu saw it. "What is wrong, mistress?"

    Jiajia mncholy said. "Somehow I got an uneasy feeling over this."

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue: ???

    Jiajia added quietly. "It is all too easy."

    Hua Wuwu chuckled. "What is wrong with that? Today they have lost big time!"

    Jiajia shook her head with a perplexed countenance. "It is like there are two leaderships in the Evil Cultivation Pce. One very cunning and one that is leaving clues for us to pick. I feel that things are not as simple as this."

    Hua Baiyueughed. "No one will use so many lives to make a point and it is a foolish point!"

    "Except for immortals; they have no emotion attachments." Jiajia quietly said.

    In the Five Heavens Peaks;

    A couple was quietly sitting and leaning against each other; they were Ji Hao and Jin Yuyun.

    Ji Hao was sighing heavily. He had heard that his father had somehow survived the duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce but he was now suddenly the head of the unorthodox cultivators and was now the number one public enemy in the orthodox fraternity.

    "Yuyun, do you regret being with me? We are now staying in this poor mountain and in the future, our cultivation will surely be affected. We may not even be a saint and even a golden supremacy while we are here."

    Jin Yuyun gently shook her head with a gentle smile, "No, I''ve never regret it. So be it then if we can''t advance in our cultivation. There is more to life than cultivation."

    The reason why Ji Hao had asked her if she regrets her decision to be with him was because Jin Yuyun was actually the only heiress to the richest celestial n in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    With the cultivation resources of the Mystic Profound Pavilion, Jin Yuyun can easily be a saintess in the future. After all she is actually quite young by celestial standard and she did not have any bad habits that can impede her cultivation growth unlike her father Jin Yilong.

    "I''m only too d to be with you. This is my honest thoughts." Jin Yuyun said. "This is the home of my mother too¡­"

    Her mother had chosen to be with Jin Yilong so that she could enjoy the cultivation resources of the Mystic Profound Pavilion and to break the cycle of poverty.

    But Jin Yuyun ispletely different from her mother; she on the other hand has given up her heiress position to the richest celestial n in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity so that she can be with Ji Hao. She did not even tell her father and grandfather that she is still alive to this day. And they had assumed that she was killed on that fateful day alongside with Saintess Yuluo.

    <o>,m "You are making too great a sacrifice for me. I am unworthy of your love¡­" Ji Hao muttered.</o>

    "No, you are worthy of me. " Jin Yuyun smiled. "And you have won my respect too. You have given your position as the scion of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to follow your father and now you have lost your chance to be a saint in the future."

    Ji Hao weakly said. "My father is the real hero. He can even be a saint in these poor mountains. I''m unworthy to even carry his legacy. Even though all the orthodox cultivars may treat my father as the number one public enemy now but he will forever be the great hero in my heart."

    "You are the great hero in my heart..." Jin Yuyun muttered. "We will work hard together to make our own name for ourselves. So what if we are from the Five heavens Peaks?"

    Ji Hao nodded. "When Fairy Ye returns from her breakthrough, I will plead to her to train me as a sword saint like my great father. No matter how tedious, how hellish and how impossible it is going to take me, I will aim for that one goal so that I can one day clear my father''s name¡­I will shave my beard from now onward. This is my greatest tribute to my great father¡­"

    Jin Yuyun lifted her eyes to meet Ji Hao. "I like you even if you have no beards¡­." But she was secretly thinking. "Better no beards than beards¡­beards are ugly¡­"

 Chapter 213 Check Mate

    Inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth;

    Ji Yuan and his group (Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi) were now walking cautiously into the valley.

    The valley was extremely dark and there were burningva everywhere.

    There were many paths so they just took a random path.

    The footprints of the cultivators that were ahead of them seemed to have allpletely vanished; it was because these cultivators had purposely disyed their lightless profound arts to conceal their tracks.

    Ji Yuan saw that there were many fire moss that were on the ground and the entire valley looked like an underground cavern due to the dark smog that was rising from all the burningva.

    "We must tread carefully and take care not to fall into theva." Ji Yuan said to the maidens who giggled at his words of caution.

    As he said that he began to poke with his sword at all the fire moss that were in front of them and exploded the fire moss into nothingness with a burst of his sword energies.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Are you bored?" Ling Feiyue frowned.

    Even Shui Xisi was giggling. "Don''t do that! You are definitely too bored!"

    "Maybe Ji Yuan is thinking that the fire moss is an enemy. Do you have to be so cautious?" Little Princessughed.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I am actually never a caution person."

    "Then what are you doing?" Little Princess returned an amused look.

    "I''m leaving nothing to chances." Ji Yuan exined.

    Ling Feiyue wasughing to and fro. "May I know what the differences between these two actions are?"

    Ji Yuan replied sheepishly. "I sense danger from these fire moss and that why I''m destroying them. That doesn''t mean that I am being cautious. These fire moss are a threat to us."

    Shui Xisi said weakly. "It is the same¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It is not the same. Cautious means taking precautions care while taking no chances means ending the problem."

    Ling Feiyue muttered with a soft chuckle. "These fire moss are not a threat my lord."

    Bai Qianfeng shrugged her shoulders; she has always known that Ji Yuan will act weirdly sometimes so she decides to keep quiet over it.

    Little Princess chuckled as she marched off. "Ignore him and let him do as he pleases."

    A short whileter, the group had entered between two cliffs and everyone except for Ji Yuan was quite upset that their paces had been slowed down so much because of Ji Yuan relentless attacks on the fire moss that hindered their path.

    It was like Ji Yuan had something against the fire moss...

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue was exasperated as she finally lost her cool to rebuke him.

    But Ji Yuan did not seem to mind at all because Ling Feiyue really had a soft voice.

    She really can''t scold people at all. Her voice is too gentle¡­

    Somewhat Ji Yuan was secretly grinning whenever Ling Feiyue was scolding him because it just made him felt d to see her weak rebuke stirring his emotions; it was because he knew that Ling Feiyue really loved him and that was why she had dared to rebuke him. Actually he did not really mind the gossip part that these maidens were constantly engaging but why the topic must always be him¡­

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi who was always taking the lead gave a great gasp. "There is something here¡­"

    Immediately Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng shed ahead and were startled to see the body of a dead cultivator that was covered by fire moss; these fire moss were like a red slime that were covering the dead cultivator, leaving nothing but a pile of golden skeleton.

    "What the heck is this thing?!" Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly brandished his sword to destroy the red slime.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped. "This is the Immortal Blood Slime. It can mimic anything that is deep red and yes, it often pretends to be a fire moss. This cultivator seems to have stepped on the red moss thinking that it is just a harmless moss on the ground but it is actually a pit that is dug by this Immortal Blood Slime."

    Little Princess shook her head in disbelief. "But he is a golden celestial. How can mere slime kill him? Surely he can escape from the pit easily?"

    "The Immortal Blood Slime has the ability to seal the profound strength of the cultivator if its slime covers anyone. This cultivator was unfortunate topletely fallen into the pit and has his entire body covered by the slime. Therefore he can''t use any of his profound strength at all."

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled weakly as she slowly recalled this monster. "Also, you can''t use your divine sense to sense it as it is able to conceal its own profound aura."

    Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Soon they were all on their way again but with a minor adjustment.

    "Ji Yuan! There is a fire moss¡­"

    "And here¡­"

    "Here too!"

    "Here please¡­"

    Soon Ji Yuan was helping them to mine clear the path until he got annoyed. "I''ve never asked anyone of you to walk so fast. Howe all of you are asking me to vanquish the fire moss¡­why can''t you do it yourself?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "That is because you have an immortal sword. Our divine swords seem unable to kill it in a single hit¡­"

    "That is right." Little Princess agreedpletely. "And we need to use our power profound arts to enhance our sword. We will lose too much of our profound strength¡­"

    Ji Yuan pointed at Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng, "You have an immortal sword and you have a celestial sword¡­"

    "Plus you are a sword energies practitioner so it is easier for you to extinguish the fire moss with your sword energies." Shui Xisi pointed out as she protested immediately.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue panicky pointed at a fire moss on the ground. "Ji Yuan, there is a fire moss here. Quickly vanquish it immediately. Who knows if it will peep and attack us under our skirts¡­"

    Ji Yuan took a look at the tiny patch of fire moss. "This fire moss is just a tiny patch. It is not a threat at all¡­"

    "Better safe than taking an unknown risk." Little Princess warned cautiously.

    Shui Xisi quickly added. "This is a trial. You will never know if we will be killed like that poor cultivator. Maybe it is an extremely deep hole that can pull our leg underneath it. Didn''t Qianfeng say we can''t use our divine sense to know if it is safe so it is better safe than sorry."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This is too cautious and a waste of time¡­" Ji Yuan pointed out.

    Ling Feiyue insisted. "It isn''t about being cautious. This fire moss is obviously a threat and must be exterminated."

    "And you are the one that volunteer to kill the fire moss in the first ce too!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    After a few hours of slow walk and killing a dozen Immortal Blood Slimes along the way, they had finally found the entrance of a cave with a ck stele that was along the cliffs.

    "Ji Yuan, you are a hero¡­"

    "You''re our darling¡­"

    Ling Feiyue touched the ck stele and smiled. "We have found the trial tomb! Come! Let''s go in now!"

    Ji Yuan suggested with a weak smile. "Can we rest? I''m erm¡­expended too much of my profound strength while using my sword energies¡­"

    "You a great saint and have a strong recovery¡­"

    "Don''t be a wuss¡­"

    "Let''s go in. I hate this smoky and creepy ce¡­"

    "And slimes too¡­"

    And all four of the maidens had walked into the tomb and they seemed to be extremely united on that, leaving Ji Yuan behind to scratch his poor head.

    "Now who is the leader¡­" he muttered slowly.

    -

    -

    -

    In the settlement camp of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect;

    Jiajia was weeping in her main tent.

    She was alone because she did not want anyone to see her breaking down; it was because she had just received news that her Xiao Ruan had just been killed and the immortal core of her divine beast had been ripped by a powerful cultivator.

    This cultivator had raided her secret base when it was at the weakest moment, killing many of her prot¨¦g¨¦s from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce including two great saints.

    Xiao Ruan was her blue firebirdpanion since she was still a baby and she had many fond memories when she was growing up with Xiao Ruan. When her mother consort the Great Goddess Alice asked her to choose a gift, she had chosen Xiao Ruan over the powerful immortal sword that was used by her mother consort.

    Someone so powerful had appeared out of the blue and leaving behind no traces.

    Her entire body was trembling; she had never broken down like this manner before. Someone had outwitted her.

    Even though it appeared that the Evil Cultivation Pce had suffered a great loss and that even Yin Xiong had been killed but Jiajia had suspected a powerful influence behind the Evil Cultivation Pce. Things were going on too smoothly and she already had an uneasy feeling.

    Someone smarter than her or even more cunning seemed to be the mastermind behind the scene and that someone had even sent a cultivator that was even more powerful than an epic ninth rank divine beast.

    Moreover the cultivator also had an immortal sword.

    It was all too obvious that an immortal cultivator was involved.

    But somehow this immortal cultivator did not seem to have his immortal strength restricted and was able to massacre everyone that stood in his way.

    What type of a powerful immortal cultivator was the attacker and who was the mastermind¡­

    The mastermind obviously was not interested in Xue Qianxue.

    So was the mastermind and the Evil Cultivation Pce a single entity or two entities?

    Jiajia knew that she got checkmated literally.

    Slowly she dried her tears before whispering with a trembling voice into themunication array. "Evacuate the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Our mountains have been discovered by our enemies¡­"

 Chapter 214 The Mysterious Tomb (1)

    The tomb was a series of passages that tunneled deep underground.

    ordingly to the stele outside the cave, Ji Yuan and his group were now entering into an immortal tomb where the golden skeleton remains of the ancient immortals had rested. All they needed to go was really simple. Find the tomb that was deep underground and just walked through it.

    This caused Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi to be a little perplexed.

    "Actually this tomb is huge and we will only be seeing part of it. If I''m not wrong then all we need to do is to pass through the tomb and we will clear this trial." Bai Qianfeng exined.

    "So simple?" Ji Yuan was in disbelief as he said aloud to Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "We have to meet one of the ancient immortals in order to clear the trial."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue was gasping with shock and so were Little Princess and Shui Xisi.

    "I don''t want to fight any immortal." Ling Feiyue was stunned.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "Don''t worry. The ancient immortal isn''t exactly alive. All I can say is that we should try to fulfill the wishes of the ancient immortals in order to clear the trial. This trial is actually an easy one, don''t worry."

    Ji Yuan frowned softly. "I don''t believe."

    Nothing was easy for him until he had truly verified it.

    A few hours, they hade to a passage where there were strong winds and beyond the passage were the entrance of three cave entrances.

    Ji Yuan immediately probed with his divine sense to find out where the strong winds hade from but he was soon bewildered; it was because the strong winds did not seem to havee from any of the cave entrances but were just circting in this cave cavern.

    The other maidens were equally bewildered.

    But all of a sudden Shui Xisi was gasping softly and she seemed to have tripped on something and she was suddenly falling to the ground.

    All the maidens tried to sh to her to support her but Ji Yuan was the fastest as he immediately caught hold of her.

    "Sisi, are you alright?" Ji Yuan gasped as he caught hold of her; how can he allow his woman to fall in front of him?

    Shui Sisi seemed to be in a daze and this stunned Ji Yuan. He had never seen Shui Sisi in this state before as she is usually quite strong will and confidently knows what she is doing.

    "Sisi, are you well? Do you want to rest? Is it the fumes earlier?" Ji Yuan asked gently.

    All the other maidens were also calling to her to arouse her from her dazed expression. "Sister Sisi, are you well? Yea, we can rest here. It is all Ji Yuan''s fault¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were genuinely asking with great concern after her wellbeing and they were even ming Ji Yuan for it.

    Ji Yuan naturally did not mind that they were helping Sisi to me him. It is always his pleasure of course to be of service to their emotion needs and he loves all of them equally.

    Even Xiang Li was panicky asking. "Is Sister Sisi...alright? She doesn''t look alright at all¡­her mental state is quite weak right now¡­"

    Xiang Li disyed her voice outside of Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Sister Sisi, Xiang Li is here for you. Please don''t cry¡­"

    "Sisi¡­Sister Sisi, are you really¡­alright?" Ling Feiyue gasped panicky as she quickly examined her.

    Ling Feiyue is actually the most righteous among the maidens here even though she is an unorthodox cultivator. For the sake of Xue Qianxue''s friendship, she was willing to risk her sect leader position and even risk a war with the entire orthodox fraternity.

    She knew that Shui Xisi had given Ji Yuan a priceless sixth rank divine pill and she could not even find a way to repay her for this casual kindness. At that time she did not understand why Sisi would give Ji Yuan such a priceless sixth rank divine pill but she soon realized that Sisi likes Ji Yuan. It was just that the way she expressed her feelings were a little out of the norm.

    Ji Yuan of course had a better instinct than anyone. Even though the first few times that he had met Sisi were not exactly meeting on a friendly term but he had never sensed that he was in danger from her even though she was actually battling him hard.

    On the contrary, he had been intrigued by her yful wiles and even been aroused by her insults. It was a lucky thing that Sisi was not an old woman or else Ji Yuan would have thought that he had a fetish with old women; he had so much fun insulting her back that he had forgotten that that there were others around.

    The young masters of the lesser and major orthodox ns usually cannot take any insults to their honors and will surely feel offended.

    But for Ji Yuan has a minor orthodox n origin, he practicably grew up to insult others and to receive insults from the uncouth cultivators that were around him. This was their way of life. It was something that few young masters and famous prot¨¦g¨¦s will be able to understand. The hearts of the cultivators of the minor celestial ns were actually very simple and they consisted of the 90% of the cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    That was why Ji Yuan had always been a rogue. Even if he was arrogant, he was an arrogant rogue.

    It startled Ji Yuan and the other maidens that there were flowing tears on Sisi''s cheeks now.

    This time Ji Yuan was really panicky as he shook her gently. "What happens please? Surely you can share with us?"

    Shui Xisi burst into loud sobs as she buried her head into Ji Yuan''s head. "Xiao Ruan, she¡­is no more¡­"

    "Xiao Ruan? Who is she?" Ji Yuan returned a perplexed look.

    "She¡­is¡­that epic¡­divine blue firebird¡­that is with me¡­" Sisi sobbed uncontroble.

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he had suddenly recalled the epic ninth rank divine beast. Even for him, he was not confidence of handling that divine beast of that rank.

    "How do you know erm¡­that she is no more? Premonitions sometimes cannot be trusted. Or maybe it is a future event that can still be changed." Ji Yuanughed weakly as he made a weak attempt tofort her.

    Shui Xisi shook her head lightly as she trembled hard. "We are linked together. Xiao Ruan had given two wisps of her soul¡­to me and my sister. I can sense her demise¡­I have a phoenix spirit entity if you remember¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that when he had fought with Sisi for the first time, she had indeed disyed her divine phoenix spirit entity.

    He really did not know how tofort her so he muttered weakly. "Sisi, don''t cry alright? Xiao Ruan is a phoenix. Maybe she can be reborn again¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi looked at him and she was trembling even more uncontrobly. "Ji Yuan¡­you are right¡­please help me to find her artifact core¡­"

    Ji Yuan said firmly. "I will."

    Shui Xisi looked quietly into Ji Yuan''s eyes as she nodded lightly.

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue were all saying at the same time. "We will also help you to revive your Xiao Ruan no matter what it takes!"

    Shui Xisi covered her mouth as she wept aloud. "Everyone¡­Ji Yuan¡­sisters¡­I¡­really don''t know what to say¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "We are all sisters and we should help each other."

    Shui Xisi looked away, "Then help my Sister Feifei (Jiajia). She is the real heroine. I''ve been too yful. I have never helped her, not even once¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a deep voice. "Wee to my immortal dwelling¡­"

    This startled everyone but no one could hear or see where this deep voice hade from¡­

    However the strong winds were now howling even louder and eerier.

    Jiajia had quietly gathered Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Saintess Yuluo, Xue Qianxue and Ling Tianshui as she said to them. "I will be departing from the settlement soon. I shall leave my protectors here to protect you¡­"

    Shangguan Yan suddenly said. "Sister Jiajia looks extremely mncholy. I know that your Sister Yan''Er is weak but I hope that Sister Jiajia will not leave us on your own."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded as she said firmly. "We are all weaker than you here but if Sister Jiajia needs us to help, we will surely help you. Even if you are unwilling to risk us but we will try to help you."

    Just as Jiajia shook her head, Xue Qianxue added quietly. "Sister Jiajia, you look really so mncholy in thest couple of days. Something must have happened. We all know that we can''t help but we are all willing to share your battles with you. Aren''t we sisters?"

    Jiajia slowly averted her eyes before she slowly turned her bodypletely around. "You won''t be able to help me¡­my battle is not an ordinary battle¡­our lord Ji Yuan will not want his women to take any risks¡­also¡­I am fine on my own¡­"

    "No, you''re not!" Shangguan Yan and Xue Qianxue said at the same time.

    Now Shangguan Yan and Xue Qianxue are the two smartest maidens in the group and they had shared their observations with the other maidens. Jiajia was definitely not alright!

    Saintess Yuluo slowly said. "I know that I am merely a middle tier saintess but I will never be shy from a battle."

    "That''s right." Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded with a firm conviction. "Sister Jiajia''s battle is our battle as well! Please do not treat us as strangers."

    Ever since she had married Ji Yuan, her cultivation level has shown a rapid advancement and her fighting spirit is also aroused; it is because her ultimate dao is actually not the sword but with her Old Master Ji Yuan. She had idolized him for a long time but she was also afraid of letting him know lest he would expel her from the sect as Ji Yuan had always been a strict master.

    When Ji Yuan had handed over to her the leadership of the Orthodox Sword Sect, she had taken plenty of hardship to try to maintain the sect. However she was not really good in handling the unruly cultivators or the other cultivators from the celestial ns; when she tried to join them in a hunt to gather cultivation resources for her sect, she was often sexually harassed because of her beautiful looks.

    In the end, she could not endure that and hence she did not join the cultivators from the other celestial ns for any hunts. This reduced the cultivation resources of the Orthodox Sword Sect and she would barely support the sect. This caused many of the prot¨¦g¨¦s to quit the sect for a better future.

    In the past Ji Yuan would always find a way to maintain the sect even though she was often perplexed how her old master got his spirit stones.

    Naturally she did not know that many of the sect leaders and elders of the Five Heavens Peaks owed their lives to Ji Yuan and they had even secretly formed a secret fraternity to go tomb raiding.

    Of course Ji Yuan and the others would never let their prot¨¦g¨¦s know about it because they were all taught by their old masters to do so; this was a secret among the sect masters and their close associates only.

    This was not an honorable thing so Ji Yuan did not want Chengxi to know that Guo Taiming and many other sect leaders from the Five Heavens Peaks were raiding the tombs of the other celestial sects nearby.

    At one time, Guo Taiming and Ji Yuan had even raided Guo Taiming''s patriarch tomb too due to dire finances. Guo Taiming had to pretend that he did not ''see'' or ''hear'' anything. It was extremelyme since he was his own sect''s sect master.

    That was why Ji Yuan was never upset with Guo Taiming for his offensive and insulting remarks. In order to solve his finances and many others, Guo Taiming was even generous to the point of allowing them to raid his own patriarch tomb.

    But that is really how poor the cultivators and sect leaders of the Five Heavens Peaks really are.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi life blood hade from Jiajia when she had founded the Emperor Hall Sect and she had supplied Chengxi with generous loans to help her to maintain the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    No one knows what was the background of Xia Jiaqing who had found the Emperor Hall Sect or the origin of her wealth. All they know was, this new Pce Mistress of the Emperor Hall Sect was really rich and many of the cultivators from the Five Heavens Peaks had flocked to her banner as their own sects could not support them anymore.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi still remembered the first time that she had been to the Emperor Hall Sect and she was shocked to see the many beautiful pces that were seemingly built at avish cost. She was not the only one and all the other cultivators from the rest of the Five Heavens Peaks were also shocked by the wealth of this new sect.

    However many of the cultivators from this new sect were also unruly cultivators with dubious background.

    As Fairy Ye Chengxi hoped to see her old master again, she was forced to endure humiliations after humiliations by these cultivators who were interested in her peerless heavenly looks. But as things got worse each time, Jiajia would always step in in a timely fashion.

    At that time she had thought that these cultivators were acting under Jiajia to harass her but at the same time, she was confused if Jiajia was really helping her or not since these cultivators had kepting.

    The truth was that Jiajia had little control over these cultivators who had their own political camps and she was reluctant to kill them as she was in a strange ce with strange customs. Moreover this was Ji Yuan''s home mountains and therefore she was willing to close one eye so that they would be willing to repent. Many never did and eventually Jiajia killed them all before she quit the Five Heavens Peaks for good.

    This had been a cultural shock for Jiajia as these cultivators were all expert liars, promising her time and again not to harass Fairy Ye Chengxi but they would find one way or another to do so.

    That was when Shangguan Yan had volunteered to go to the Emperor Hall Sect to ease the pressure for Fairy Ye Chengxi and to find out more about the intentions of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi never knew that her Sister Yan''Er has always idolized Ji Yuan as well and she is willing to sacrifice her happiness to keep the Orthodox Sword Sect because this represented the only memory of their old master together even though he may never return.

    Imagine the pleasant surprise that were from Fairy Ye Chengxi''s and Shangguan Yan''s when their old master had suddenly returned without his beard and without his golden celestial eyes; they suspected that he may have lost his cultivation realm level as he no longer had any golden eyes but in their hearts, they still secretly idolized him.

    But none of them had the courage to tell Ji Yuan that they all know who he was from day one because they knew that Ji Yuan would surely leave them if they tell him they had recognized his beardless self.

    It was not because they know that Ji Yuan had prided his beard a lot but because their old master had always trained them to be independent and he was often not at the Five Heavens Peaks but exploring the trials and visiting the other nearby celestial ns.

    He would often say, "My own sect isn''t exactly a safe ce for me. Even the trials are safer than my own sect. Haha."

    His remarks would often cause them to be bewildered. Because to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, their own sect is the safest ce and it is where they have grown up together.

    Of course they did not know that Ji Yuan would be dogged by the Evil Cultivation Pce from time to time due to something that he had done in the past.

    Therefore they were all hoping that he would stay for much longer in his own sect. They really did not mind that he was no longer a golden celestial anymore.

    But it turned out that Ji Yuan was merely hiding his golden celestial state of divinity using a mystic profound art that he had stolen from Little Princess while he was in a secret base of the Evil Cultivation Pce; his breakthrough was actually a great sess minus a little hup that caused him to lose his beard and he was a half-step saint when he had exited his cultivation retreat, bing the only saint in the Five Heavens Peaks in many thousands of years and the strongest cultivator in the Five heavens Peaks.

    But of course Ji Yuan never know that Jiajia was stronger than him at that time.

    Jiajia knew that all the cultivators, including the four golden supremacy elders were actually not his match one to one even if he was not at his peak because Ji Yuan is a high level sword saint and that he was only ying them until he had recovered his profound strength.

    But she did not expose him.

    Jiajia was able to know that Ji Yuan had been hiding his true cultivation level because she is a great saintess; she can probe his inner spiritual sea with her secret profound art that only a great saintess can master.

    Ji Yuan''s cultivation disguise actually cannot work against a great saintess with formidable divine sense. But to the four elders of the Emperor Hall Sect, he could fool them.

    When Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan had both married Ji Yuan, the blemish in their soul sea was lifted and their cultivation level had quickly advanced. It was because Ji Yuan had always been an anchor of their soul sea.

    When Ji Yuan while using the alias Yuan Ji had told Fairy Ye Chengxi to abandon the Orthodox Sword Sect, Chengxi refused because she was only telling him half the truth.

    She had told him, "This one principle is the anchor of my soul sea. I will never be able to drop it." But she was actually referring to Ji Yuan. She will never drop him from her soul sea.

    The same goes to Shangguan Yan as well.

    So when finally Ji Yuan had finally confessed to them who he was just before his death duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, the dark blemishes that were in the hearts of both Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had finally broken free, allowing them to advance in their cultivation realms and they were able to be a golden supremacy and golden celestial respectively.

    Their heart demons for their life and death tribtions were actually Ji Yuan their old master and they both hid a terrible secret that they had both known who ''Yuan Ji'' true identity was all along.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was now saying to Jiajia. "You can''t leave us. We may not be as strong as your protectors but we are all your sisters now."

    Shangguan Yan was smiling. "Yan''Er may not be strong but I can always contribute my ideas to Sister Jiajia."

    Jiajia shuddered lightly as she looked at everyone with a deep sigh. "Everyone¡­sisters¡­"

    Ling Tianshui winked her eyes, "Hey! Don''t forget about me here!"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled with great loveliness. "Although our group here may not be as formidable as Ji Yuan and our other sisters inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but our group is definitely the smarter one!"

    Saintess Yuluoughed softly. "We are definitely the smarter group and we can pool our brains together to outwit any opponents."

    Indeed Saintess Yuluo is right; their group consists of all the smartest maidens.

 Chapter 215 The Mysterious Tomb (2)

    When the deep voice from nowhere had suddenly echoed in the cavern, it rattled Ji Yuan and his group.

    But Ji Yuan was even more startled because he had suddenly realized that he was holding Sisi in his arms in front of Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng.

    As a matter of fact, even Shui Xisi had suddenly realized that she had been crying in Ji Yuan''s embrace and she was flushing all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan quickly said to the other maidens. "It isn''t what you think¡­"

    "Yea¡­" Shui Xisi muttered out.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng rolled their eyes. It was precisely what they had thought and they obviously know that the two of them were just pretending. After all Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng had already caught them red-handed when they were tailing Ji Yuan but they were pretending not to know.

    As for Ling Feiyue, she was not too dumb to see that Ji Yuan was looking at Shui Xisi all the time and moreover Shui Xisi''s beauty was just too astonishing. Since Ji Yuan is not a eunuch or a monk, he would not be immune to Sisi''s mesmerizing charms.

    But their thoughts were quickly interrupted by the deep voice again. "Who dares to disturb my rest and do you dare to take my immortal challenge."

    Ji Yuan immediately took the opportunity to shout back so that he could ease his awkwardness and at the same time released his hold on Shui Xisi. "I dare! Who is afraid of who? And who are you?"

    "I am the immortal spirit of this ce. Who I am isn''t important anymore. This is but a remnant of my original soul. As you can see, there are three caves here but you can only choose one." The deep voice echoed loudly.

    All of a sudden there was a blue portal that had suddenly appeared in front of them.

    "Alternatively, you may choose to exit this trial." The deep voice said.

    Ji Yuan asked. "If we choose to exit this trial then we will fail the trial?"

    The deep voiceughed. "No. You can pass the trial as long as one of you is able to enter one of the caves here."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuanughed. "Then we can all choose to exit the trial¡­"

    "But if none of you can enter one of the caves here then all of you shall count as failing the trial here." The deep voiceughed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The rest of the maidens: ¡­

    "However one of you can''t take the cave trial because she is an immortal. You know who you are." The deep voice added.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan took a look at Qianfeng before heughed weakly. "Alright then. This sounds easy enough. All I need to do is to walk into one of the caves am I right? Haha."

    The deep voiceughed. "Not so easy. You have to ask me personally first if you are qualified first before you can enter the cave."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Then how do we enter the caves then?" Ji Yuan was now frowning. This immortal spirit seemed to have a weird sense of humor.

    "I can stay here to observe?" Bai Qianfeng asked quietly.

    "You may choose to wait here to observe, goddess." The deep voice said.

    Bai Qianfeng looked a little startled. This demised immortal spirit even know her immortal title. She hummed softly before she raised her voice. "Alright. Then how do mypanions enter these three caves?"

    The deep voiceughed. "Naturally you have to pass my trial to qualify for it. There are three caves here. The first cave is the cave of soul. You have to have a pure soul to enter this cave¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a loudughter. "I have a very pure soul. Haha."

    Xiang Li muttered in his soul sea. "I can''t be sure¡­"

    The deep voice continued. "The second cave requires the spirit of the cultivator to be pure while the third cave is for the dead."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "How does the dead take the trial?"

    The deep voice answered. "If none of you can pass the cave of the soul and the cave of the spirit then the third cave will be for you."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily. "Then I better take the blue portal¡­"

    "That is for the immortalpanion that is with you. None of you can pass through this blue portal unless one of you can pass the trial." The deep voiceughed coldly. "So who will step forward first?"

    Bai Qianfeng immediately said to her group. "Don''t fall into his tricks. This tomb is actually huge and there are other immortal spirits. If I''m not wrong, each of the immortal spirits is able to set their own trials. If we are unsure then we can always backtrack to take the other passages¡­"

    But Ling Feiyue had already stepped forward as she raised her voice with a grin. "I may not have a pure soul but I''m sure that my spirit is extremely pure. Let me advance into the cave of the spirit¡­"

    "Your spirit does not meet my requirement. You''ve failed." The deep voice thundered.

    "What?" Ling Feiyue was stunned. "How is it possible?!"

    She turned around to look at the rest of her group as she stammered. "I¡­my spirit is really pure¡­"

    "Let me take the test!" Shui Xisi had shed forward with a soft giggle. "I''ve actually formed my spirit core. Therefore my spirit will be able to meet his expectations."

    When she had said that she had formed her spirit core, Ji Yuan and the others were all startled as they thought at the same time; Sisi has already formed her spirit core? She has a copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art?

    Bai Qianfeng muttered. "If she is that person''s daughter than it is not a surprise."

    Shui Xisiughed. "So how is it? Did I pass?"

    "You do not meet my expectations too." The deep voice answered.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Your turn." Ling Feiyue whispered to Little Princess.

    "Don''t look at me. If the two of you can''t even meet his expectations, I can''t pass as well." Little Princess shrugged her shoulders as she took a peek at the entrance where they hade from and was suddenly startled that it had disappeared now!

    This was not lost on the rest as Bai Qianfeng said weakly. "The minute that you have decided to take the trial, your fate is sealed."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue knew that she had screwed up and she panicky said to Ji Yuan. "MY lord, you have the purest soul. Why don''t you try?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "You know what. I am now under a lot of stress now. All of a sudden, I am not so sure of the pureness of my soul anymore."

    But nevertheless he had stepped forward as he unsheathed his immortal-step divine sword. "I don''t care about your trials. If you dare to touch any of my women then you have to first step over my dead body first¡­"

    "Your spirit is very pure. You have passed my test and are qualified to enter the first cave." The deep voice thundered with a loudugh.

    Ji Yuan was startled. "My spirit is pure? Not my soul?" He could not believe what he was hearing¡­

    "Your soul is pure as well! This is a real surprise!" The deep voiceughed thunderously. "Finally I have found you. You are indeed one in a million."

    Ji Yuan was alsoughing heartily. "Of course my soul is pure. So I am qualified to enter both caves? So both my spirit and soul are pure at the same time. Haha."

    As heughed, he purposelyughed in front of the three maidens and they were speechless that none of them had passed a single trial.

    Little Princess cursed softly. "This immortal spirit must be a gay for sure¡­"

    "He is gay." Shui Xisi cursed too.

    "He is also blinded." Ling Feiyue hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuanughed theirments off as he asked. "So which cave should I pick then since both my spirit and soul are both pure at the same time? The first or the second?"

    "None." The deep voice said. "You can now pick the third cave to enter."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You want me to pick the cave of death?" Ji Yuan frowned immediately.

    The deep voiceughed thunderously, causing the entire cave to shake with his echoes and the winds to blow even fiercer. "You may pick the third cave. Because you are the one in a million, the cave of death has now be the cave of life."

    "The cave of life?" Ji Yuan was perplexed.

    "You may enter the third cave now while the rest of yourpanions can wait here for you." The deep voice said.

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "He isn''t lying. My lord, you may have stumbled upon something good. Quickly go in to have a look!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Is it? Haha. Then I will be back quickly."

    As he said that, he had shed to the third cave.

    Ling Feiyue stomped her boot hard. "I can''t believe that Ji Yuan is pure in spirit as well! Hmph! I have no issue with his pure soul but I am contesting his pure spirit part!"

    Shui Xisi shook her head. "Me too."

    "This stupid immortal spirit must really be blinded." Little Princessmented with a weak sigh.

    "He has a high state of divinity with his spirit. His spirit is strong and he never gives up easily. The rest of you are inferior to him, even the goddess that is here." The deep voice echoed deeply.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Immediately Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng cursed softly at the same time. "It must be his stupid Undying Fighting Spirit¡­"

    The three maidens were only partial right. Ji Yuan had always focused on his fighting spirit and his mental fortitude; he actually valued the useless spirit profound arts over the powerful external and internal profound arts.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce;

    The Evil Cultivation Master was now looking hatefully at the Goddess Mei and the Sagess Alyssa now but in the presence of the Great Demon God, he did not dare to make his intentions known.

    But the Great Demon God said behind his dark shrouded curtains. "Yin Tianxing. You seem to have something to say? Why don''t you bottom up your heart?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master hesitated for a while before he said coldly. "Almost all my prot¨¦g¨¦s are either dead or captured now. My son Yin Xiong is now dead, including ten of my patriarch n. I may be a deste immortal but you know how hard it is for me to have a direct line¡­"

    "Your direct line is given to me. Do you think that with your vitality, you will have any children?" The Great Demon God interrupted coldly.

    The Evil Cultivation Master bowed his head; this was the truth. The Great Demon God had given him an immortal treasure to ensure that he had a seed or two when he had first established the Evil Cultivation Pce. Yin Wei and Yin Xiong are both his sons but it was only through the use of the now dead immortal treasure that he was able to have any children.

    "You don''t have any sentiments toward your children or n because you are a heartless deste immortal." The Great Demon God added. "You only want to know why and you think that you ought to bepensated for your sacrifices."

    This time the Evil Cultivation Master trembled. It was because this was actually the true reason why he had a look of dissent. Ever since the Goddess Mei had been promoted to leadmander over the deste army, he was really unhappy and had cursed her in his heart daily.

    He said with trembling lips. "I really dare not¡­"

    "I didn''t ask you to attack the settlement. You did. You want to obtain Xue Qianxue to reverse your aging and your prime body. Now that your attacks had failed, why are you so upset with the Goddess Mei? She didn''t do anything to cause you to make such a terrible loss, right?" The Great Demon God coolly said as he took a sip of wine.

    The Evil Cultivation Master answered. "She did not warn me that there is an ambush in the camp. Surely with her resources, she can certainly warn our troops!"

    "I am the one that had asked her not to warn you." The Great Demon God coolly said.

    The Evil Cultivation Master: ¡­

    "What is the meaning of this?" He was literally speechless!

    "It is time for us to disband the Evil Cultivation Pce. Our cover had now been blown and our enemies are suspecting our existences. Therefore I have to sacrifice the pawn now." The Great Demon God coolly said as he lifted a pawn forward.

    Of course the Great Demon God did not tell Yin Tianxing that while his forces had attacked the settlement, he had made use of him tounch an attack on the secret base of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    To the Great Demon God, this was a worthwhile exchange.

    The Evil Cultivation Master stammered with a stunned look. "We''re disbanding the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    The Great Demon Lord nodded lightly as he raised his wine cup to cheer someone. "The next phase of our deployment can finally move forward now. There is no need of any proxies anymore."

    "The next phase?" The Evil Cultivation Master was shocked. "That day has finallye?"

    The Goddess Mei chuckled. "Yes the next phase. That day has indeed arrived!"

 Chapter 216 The Mysterious Tomb (3)

    Ji Yuan had entered the cave of ''life'' alone.

    He had actually hesitated for a while before he fully stepped into the cave. No longer had he entered the cave, he was pulled into a portal and through a spatial space.

    The cave was only an illusion.

    When he had opened his eyes again, he saw that he was in a beautiful in that was facing ake and there were thousands of deste beasts all around the in.

    His first thought was. "Crap! I have been lured into a trap!"

    But he soon calmed down when he saw that he was standing on top of a small tform and that there were no deste beasts that were within five miles around him.

    "Where am I?"

    All of a sudden an old man with a long white beard had appeared in front of him and he was roaring withughter; he had that distinctly deep voice that Ji Yuan had heard earlier.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned when he saw him. "So you are that immortal spirit that is talking to us earlier?"

    The old man grinned as he stroked his white beard. "This is the cave of life and I am here to give you your reward¡­"

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan interrupted him with a suspicious look. "There are no other trials so why are you giving me a reward?"

    As the old man tried to exin, he was interrupted swiftly by Ji Yuan again as he said sternly. "Let us get this straight first. Even though my knowledge of cultivation isn''t as profound as the others but I don''t want you as the reward at all. I''m not going to let you live in my soul sea just because my soul sea is pure. Got it?"

    It was because Ji Yuan knows that spirit entities inhabited the soul seas of the cultivators. This was a no brainer knowledge that all the cultivators know.

    "Moreover I already have a spirit entity." Ji Yuan pointed out. "So I don''t need you at all."

    Xiang Li was also shouting loudly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Yea! We don''t need an ugly old man like you! Go away!"

    The old man: ¡­

    "I didn''t say anything about being your spirit entity."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuanughed weakly when he had heard him. "Haha. Better be safe than sorry. I am justying my cards in front of you first. So what is my reward then?"

    The old man looked coolly at Ji Yuan as he stroked his long white beard. "Do you know that there are ten immortal spirits in this tomb and I''m the hardest to pass?"

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile. "I can see that. Failure to pass your trial will mean instant death. Who will be crazy enough to take your trial?"

    The old manughed. "But you did."

    "But will you kill us if we all fail to pass the trial?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    "And will you kill me if you fail your trial?" The old man asked.

    Ji Yuan frankly replied. "I will definitely try because I can''t allow mypanions to die in your hands. Even if you are an immortal spirit but I will try to destroy this tomb so that you will not harm them the least."

    The old manughed. "I really like your answer."

    "So will you kill them?" Ji Yuan asked.

    The old man smirked. "What do you think?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin. "I think you will try to carry your threats but there is a little w with your trial."

    "Which is?" The old man asked.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "No one will be stupid enough to enter that cave of death. All they need to do is to wait at the same spot. When the six months are up, they are allowed to go anyway. So why enter the cave of death anyway? It is like you''re inviting them to their dooms but none of them will be stupid enough to enter the cave of death."

    The old man stroked his long white beard as he looked at Ji Yuan intently. "You are actually not wrong. What if you have failed in your trials, what will you do? Kill me?"

    Ji Yuan answered. "I will enter the cave of death."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Big Brother, no! You will die! Xiang Li don''t want you to die¡­" She immediately cried out inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    "Why?" The old man asked.

    "I didn''t sense any danger from you and I don''t think that is really the cave of death." Ji Yuan exined.

    "You just say that no one is stupid enough to enter the cave of death and yet you are offering yourself to enter the cave?" The old man asked.

    Ji Yuan said. "Because this is a trial and it isn''t a trap. Therefore the only way out of this trial must be the cave of death."

    The old man roared withughter. "You know. You are the only smart person that has sessfully deducted this. Although the others are all iming themselves as the smart ones but they will not enter the cave of death. Because the smarter they are, the more they will value their own lives and will not take the risk."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "Are you saying that I am the stupid one?"

    "Didn''t I just say you are the smart one?" The old man smiled.<sub> </sub>

    "How do I know if you are reversing talking to me?" Ji Yuan demanded to know.

    The old man: ¡­

    "Alright. I am going to give you a reward but can you ask your spirit entity to step out of your soul sea first?"

    "What do you want with Xiang Li?" Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "Surely you''re not any lecherous old man, are you?"

    The old man roared withughter. "That is because I am going to give her a reward too because her spirit and soul are purer than you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, will youe out but pleased be clothed properly because there is a lecherous old man here." Ji Yuan muttered.

    Xiang Li had immediately stepped out with a special dress that was made by the special material that Ling Feiyue had given her.

    Even though she was clothed modesty but the old man was staring lecherously at her. "Beautiful. Beautiful¡­"

    "Hey, old man! Watch your eyes!" Ji Yuan cursed loudly.

    "I''m talking about her pureness of spirit and soul. What are you thinking?" The old man asked.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes to Xiang Li. "She is obviously a lolita now."

    The old man: ¡­

    "Why is that I feel that you are the lecherous one? And you even have four maidens apanying you?"

    "They are my women. What is lecherous about that?" Ji Yuan protested immediately. "So what are our rewards? Don''t lie to me. You''re supposed to give us two rewards!"

    Xiang Li raised her fists too. "Yea! What''re our rewards? Don''t lie to us! Or we''ll destroy your tomb!"

    The old man raised his fingers as he pointed at Ji Yuan. "This is your reward¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt that his spiritual sea was solidifying rapidly now and that the Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill that he had consumed a few days ago were now expanding his spiritual sea to the peak; in a blink of an eye he is now a peaked great saint!

    Ji Yuan was shocked as he muttered. "I have reached the pinnacle of cultivation¡­"

    The old man chuckled. "Cultivation has no limits. There are still realms above the peaked seventh realm. Whether you can ascend it, is another story."

    Xiang Li was delighted for Ji Yuan as she chuckled. "Wow my big brother is so great now! What about me? What is my reward? It has better be good!"

    Now that Ji Yuan had taken the sweet bribe from the old man, he was naturally siding with the old man now so he rebuked Xiang Li lightly. "You ought to be more polite to him. After all, he is a nice old man."

    The old man rolled his eyes. This cultivator sure changed his face fast.

    But he was soonughing as he pointed his finger at Xiang Li. "Since your spiritual sea is in excess now, I shall do you the favor of transferring your excess spiritual force to your spirit entity."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s eyes dropped as Xiang Li began to mature to the usual form that he had been used to for a long time, that of a young maiden.

    "Xiang Li! You''re back now!" Ji Yuan was roaring withughter as he tried to hug her but his arms had passed through to her.

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Come Xiang Li, materialize to your physical body and let me hug you! Haha." Ji Yuanughed aloud. "It is so good to have you back again!"

    Xiang Li: ???

    "I am always here. Why am I back?!"

    The old manughed as he pointed at Ji Yuan. "Why is that I think you are the lecherous one?"

    "Rubbish! Never!" Ji Yuanughed. "Well, thank you old man for bringing back my Xiang Li. Haha."

    "But big brother, I am always here? What do you mean?" Xiang Li was perplexed.

    "Xiang Li, you are too dumb. Haha. All you need to know is, wee back!" Ji Yuan was really extremely happy. The more mature Xiang Li, the more secure that he is. It is because he really did not want to lose Xiang Li who has always been his confidant.

    The old man pointed to a portal that had appeared. "You may go now. You have passed the trial."

    "Haha. Farewell old man!" Ji Yuan waved him good bye as he entered through the portal.

    As he entered the portal, the old man muttered. "Farewell to you, the Great Beyond Goddess. You really have a nice master. I wish you all the best¡­"

 Chapter 217 The Trial Of The Water (1)

    When Ji Yuan had returned to the cavern, he was grinning to Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng.

    He had a triumphant smile and he wasughing nonstop.

    "What did you receive as your trial reward?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    "Yea? What did you obtain?" All the other maidens were asking at the same time, including Bai Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud. "I''m now a peaked great saint now. Hoho¡­"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue shook her head. "Ji Yuan, you have advanced too rapidly for the past two years. This isn''t too good for you. You have literally advance from an initial saint to a peaked great saint in under two years. There will be repercussions."

    Ji Yuanughed it off. "But I didn''t advance for the past one hundred years."

    "Yea. Ji Yuan is slow in his cultivation¡­"

    "His cultivation speed is like a tortoise¡­"

    "He isn''t a genius at all¡­"

    "Totally agree¡­it may because he didn''t advance for a long time¡­"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he frowned; why is that I got a feeling that they are actually goading over my slow cultivation rather than cheering for newly attained new cultivation heights?

    He was actually right.

    They were all cultivators and the maidens were allpeting with one another as well. Since Ji Yuan had advanced the fastest, he was naturally the focus of their dissent.

    These maidens used to have a cultivation level that was once higher than Ji Yuan but now that Ji Yuan had reached the peaked great saint realm level, they were feeling a little inferior to Ji Yuan now.

    Ling Feiyue was muttering softly against Ji Yuan but in her heart she was actually d for him. She was the one that had given him the sixth rank divine pill of course.

    She was not the only maidens that were d for Ji Yuan. All the other maidens were also d for Ji Yuan.

    The main reasons why they were muttering against Ji Yuan was to remind him that he was not so great just to check his pride in check. The truth was, they feel extremely d that he was able to advance so fast but of course, they were all too shy to admit to him that they were actually very proud of him.

    Therefore they could only tease him in this manner.

    As they entered the blue portal together and exited the tomb, the deep voice sighed. "This great beyond goddess is so young and is still a child at heart. I hope that you don''t corrupt her¡­"

    Xiang Li maturity cannot be measured by tens, hundreds or even thousands of years. Her maturity is actually measured in the millions of years because it took her tens of millions to grow up. That was why she is still learning andprehending her surroundings. This is something that most cultivators and even immortals will have difficulty understanding because Xiang Li is a true goddess.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan and his group soon found themselves along ake that was surrounded by beautiful mountains. It was as though the mountains were rising from theke itself.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. "Darn old man. Of all ces, you have to send me to a ce with ake¡­"

    "Don''t tell me you can''t swim?" Ling Feiyueughed softly.

    Ji Yuan answered courageously. "Of course I can swim! I love swimming best! Haha."

    All the other maidens giggled softly as they whispered together. "I bet he doesn''t know how to swim¡­Sister Yan''Er says he can''t swim¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "It isn''t because I can''t swim. It just that I dislike getting myself wet." He immediately protested with a softugh.

    Bai Qianfeng suddenly said. "What is that?"

    All of a sudden there was a thick mist appearing over theke and a ghastly ship could be seen floating over the horizon.

    Little Princess said quietly. "It seems to being in our direction."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he said. "What? Isn''t that great? Just when I am thinking of swimming across theke, a ship will actually approach us. Aren''t we a little too lucky?"

    Ling Feiyue said quietly. "Don''t let down your guard. This may not necessary be a good thing."

    Shui Xisi nodded. "I agree with Sister Feiyue here."

    Ji Yuanughed. "When did my Feiyue be your Sister Feiyue?"

    Shui Xisi flushed shyly as she gave Ji Yuan a soft kick. "We are on the same side now. My Sister Feifei is their sister so naturally I am also their sister too."

    Ji Yuanughed, not realizing that Shui Xisi was giving him a cold stare as though she was saying; stop teasing me or else they will know that we are together¡­

    Little Princess said warily. "I have an uneasy feeling about that ship¡­"

    As the group looked warily at the ghastly ship, it had slowly approached the bank of theke.

    The ghastly ship looked worn and Ji Yuan wondered if it may sink at any time.

    As the ship approached the bank, they could see a dark robe cultivator.

    This dark robe cultivator had an eerie look and their divine senses detected no profound animus from him. It was as though this dark robe cultivator was a corpse and not a living entity.

    The dark robe cultivator said in an eerie voice. "Come aboard on the ship to the trial ind. If not either you can swim to the trial ind or set off for another trial. But if you want to board this ship then you have to show me whether you are worthy enough to be able to jump on the ship deck first."

    Ji Yuan saw that the ship and theke bank indeed required the cultivators to have a reasonable expertise with their lightless profound art or else they would not be able to make the difficult jump.

    "Well, girls?"

    All four maidens returned a light nod or answered. "I have no issue making the jump¡­it isn''t too difficult."

    Ji Yuan of course had no issue making the jump himself so heughed. "Since you are all willing to take the challenge to the trial ind, I have no objections either. So why don''t we go on a little honeymoon on this ship then? Haha."

    "Let''s treat this as our honeymoon then with Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Yea!"

    "This isn''t my honeymoon¡­" Shui Xisi protested weakly.

    All four maidens giggled as they quickly leapt on board the ship as they disyed their beautiful lightless profound art that showed a variety of forms and grace.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned; who are they trying to impress anyway¡­

    Compared to their lightless profound art, Ji Yuan''s lightless profound art was crude and to the point. It was because he had developed his own lightless profound art through his own hard work and forced training. Therefore his lightless profound art did not have any fanciful disy.

    With a gentle tiptoe, he had shed on board the ship.

    But when he hadnded on the ship deck, he saw that there were dozens of cultivators that were staring at him and his group; it seemed that the ship had the ability to conceal the profound animus of these cultivators as well.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "So we are not the only ones taking the trial¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had a flustered look as she whispered to Ji Yuan. "So this is your honeymoon¡­"

    The other three maidens were all flushing; it was because they were all talking about their honeymoon with Ji Yuan, not realizing that there were so many other cultivators in this ce. This really startled them and caused them to look extremely awkward.

    At the same time, the dozens of cultivators were staring at Ji Yuan and the four maidens because the five of them were so attractive that many of the cultivators were moved by their sight.

    Many of the female cultivators were even staring at Ji Yuan as though they wanted to eat him up.

    One of the female cultivators was smiling and she was quite an alluring maiden. "It is Great Hero Ji Yuan. Do you still remember me? I''m Mu Wan''Er. Do you still remember me?"

    Yuan Ji: ???

    She looks familiar. Have I met her before?!

 Chapter 218 The Trial Of The Water (2)

    Ji Yuan took a look at Mu Wan''Er as he rubbed his chin. This alluring maiden sure looked familiar but he just could not remember seeing her before. All of a sudden he remembered her¡­

    At the same time Ling Feiyue had kicked him softly. "She is the one that we have met in the Lotus Sword Mansion."

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Right¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er smiled. "And we have also met at the outskirt of the Amber Frost City too."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Right. Right. I remember you all right¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly interrupted him. "Amber Frost City? Howe I didn''t know about this? I was with you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Erm, that isn''t important right?"

    Xiang Li was smiling in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Yes. I remember Mu Wan''Er! She is a pretty maiden too! Big Brother, she seems to be interested in you!"

    "Don''t talk rubbish, Xiang Li. She is just being friendly."

    Ji Yuan had remembered her now; she was the alluring maiden that was with Saint Wu Heng in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trial. She is actually from the Burning Heavens Pavilion, one of the seven major orthodox ns. They had met while they were on opposing side while taking the lightning trial and Ji Yuan had ''killed'' her indirectly during the trial.

    The second time that they had met, they were still on opposing sides and Saint Wu Heng was after his life while they were outside Amber Frost City. That time he had thrashed up her side but her side had beaten to a hasty retreat.

    At that time, Little Princess had killed Saint Wu Heng and because of that, Ji Yuan had be the one that had killed Saint Wu Heng.

    Therefore he was supposed to be her enemy and the enemy of her powerful celestial n.

    So they were not exactly on the friendly side.

    But now, she was actually smiling at him?

    Ji Yuan had a perplexed look on his countenance as he pondered. "Is this a ruse?"

    He did not believe that she would be his fan girl or that she would have fallen in love with his beautiful looks. After all, most of his fan girls are the lowly celestials and not the golden celestials.

    Well. Qianxue, Feiyue and Jiajia are the exceptions; they are all women of culture and they liked my poems.

    So he did not have any illusions at all.

    But the other four maidens were all thinking otherwise; she obviously has an interested in Ji Yuan¡­

    Mu Wan''Er said quietly. "I am the only cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity around here and you are the second group of cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan took a peek behind her and saw that while there were around forty celestials but none of them seemed to be wearing the familiar robes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. The female cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are also easy to identify because their skirts are short.

    But the short skirts of the female cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are not the most outrageous. There are more outrageous and Ji Yuan personally knows that some of the golden celestials of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are only in the trials because they have wanted to ogle at the other maidens of the celestial fraternities.

    These are the perverts¡­

    Mu Wan''Er sighed softly. "May I join your group since we''re all from the Deste Celestial Fraternity? It is safer for me this way."

    Ji Yuan saw that dozens of eyes were now staring at their group and he was cursing them for ogling at his women. So he instinctively replied. "Indeed it is not safe¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er immediately had a smile on her as she eximed with great. "So I can join your group? This is too wonderful! Thank you Great Hero Ji Yuan!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Erm¡­actually¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er lowered her head to whisper. "Actually I have something important to warn you so I hope that Great Hero Ji Yuan will take some precaution."

    Yi Yuan and his group: ???

    "Let''s go to one side first, alright?" Mu Wan''Er quietly said. "This is a secret."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "Secret?! What does this have to do with me?"<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi took the opportunity to fan a me by whispering softly to her group. "I bet that she is carrying his baby."

    But all the other three maidens did not take her bait and returned a not so amused look; this joke is not funny.

    As Ji Yuan and his group moved to a corner, the other cultivators were quietly muttering. "What a beautiful group. Howe they are together? They know one another? Just how many cultivators did the Deste Celestial Fraternity sends this time round?"

    After Mu Wan''Er was alone with Ji Yuan and his group, she lowered her eyes to whisper. "Actually I have a mission from my celestial n and that is to kill you."

    Ji Yuan had a stunned look because he did not sense any danger from her.

    The other maidens were also stunned but they had quickly readied themselves to make abat stance should Mu Wan''Er make a move against them.

    But Ji Yuan remained unguarded as he asked. "Erm, you are a sixth realm golden supremacy?"

    Mu Wan''Er nodded, "That is right."

    Ji Yuan was somewhat amused. "Maybe when I am still a lowly saint, you may still have a chance since you are a power cultivator but now I''m a great saint and a peaked great saint. Do you think that you have a chance now to kill me?"

    Mu Wan''Er took half a step back as she gasped softly. "You are a peaked great saint now? Is it even possible?"

    As she said it, the idtry looks in her eyes increased by ten times.

    "You have better believed it." Ji Yuanughed with pride.

    The other maidens had a look of disgust as they groaned silently. "Is he trying to show off and has forgotten that this maiden here wants to kill him?"

    "But why are you telling me this?" Ji Yuan asked curiously. "Surely you have a better chance of killing me if I do not know of your intentions?"

    Mu Wan''Er shook her head. "I know that I won''t seed because you are a Great Hero. I have no wish to kill you. That is why I am telling you this. After all, we are on the same group now. Am I right to say so?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. "Right¡­"

    "My celestial n isn''t the only group that wants to kill you. I''m afraid that half of the major celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity have the same mission as me. You have to be wary." Mu Wan''Er said quietly.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he answered. "I did meet a few earlier but they look friendly enough."

    Mu Wan''Er said. "Maybe they are not the ones with the mission to kill you. You''re just lucky."

    Ji Yuan returned a hand bow. "I thank Maiden Wan''Er for warning me. But since this is your n''s mission, will you get into trouble if you do not carry out your mission?"

    Mu Wan''Er shyly averted her eyes. "Trouble or not, I am unwilling to lift my finger on you. Did you see me lifting my finger on you when we had met at Amber Frost City?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chins. Indeed she had not. He could only remember that she had made abat stance but she did not make any real moves to attack him. When the leaders of the offending group had made a hasty retreat, she had even smiled at him and told him her name. At that time, he did not really put her name into his heart because he was soon distracted by the appearance of Little Princess.

    "Haha. So we are friends?" Ji Yuan chuckled softly.

    Mu Wan''Er smiled. "Indeed, we are friends."

    Hopefully more than friends¡­

    Ji Yuan continued tough. "Thank you for sharing. But why should your n wants to erm¡­kill me?" He could not resist asking even though he knows that this may be a sensitive question.

    The other four maidens were also curious to know why.

    But Mu Wan''Er shook her head. "I do not know. We are given a silver card. By shing this silver card, we will know that we are all on the same side."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Because it is because I have killed Saint Wu Heng¡­"

    "No, it is not this. Saint Wu Heng is actually not a popr man in my n. The current leadership hates him as a matter of fact." Mu Wan''Er shook her head as she interrupted him quietly.

    "Oh?"

    Just as Ji Yuan had wanted to ask her more, the dark robe cultivator at the starboard of the ship had suddenly raised his skeleton finger as he pointed at an ind in front of them. "We have reached the Ind of Greed¡­"

    His voice was deep and reached to every corner of the ship and the dozens of cultivators were all gasping with excitement. The next trial would take ce soon!

 Chapter 219 The Trial Of The Water (3)

    The Ind of Greed looked just like an ordinary ind and it did not look like a big ind from the ship but when the cultivators hadnded on the ind itself, they had realized how wrong they were; the ind is actually a big ind and it even has its own mountain ranges!

    Altogether, there were around sixth cultivators and the dark robe cultivator had also picked up five more cultivators along the way.

    Bai Qianfeng whispered quietly as she said. "It seems that this ship is just like a spatial space and that this dark robe cultivator can actually exist in multiple ces. Or else I cannot exin why we can''t hear or see him after we are onboard the ship. Moreover, how did he manage to pick up this many cultivators in such a short time?"

    Ji Yuan was forced to agree with her. It was because he had been thinking of the same thing as well!

    Betweennding on the Ind of Greed and their arrival on this ship, only a short time had passed.

    Even more surprising when they hadnded on the Ind of Greed, there were around a hundred other cultivators that were already on the ind!

    "Um, so we''re not the first then." Ji Yuan and many of the other cultivatorsmented almost at the same time.

    As the cultivators on board the ship reached the beach, they were quickly greeted by most of the hundred cultivators that were presented.

    Ji Yuan naturally knows that these cultivators were all trying to make an effort make some friends and to guard against the sudden changes that would happen during the trialter.

    Many of the cultivators were looking for other cultivators from their own fraternity; this was all too natural. After all, it was easier to trust someone from their own fraternity than aplete stranger from the other fraternities.

    Ji Yuan saw four cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity; three men and one woman. However they were all looking quite pale and did not seem eager to approach him.

    "Maybe they are shy or they did not know me?" Ji Yuan rubbed his chin.

    "Maybe they are nning to kill you instead?" Xiang Li offered a suggestion as she chuckled softly in his soul sea.

    Ji Yuan turned slowly to look at Mu Wan''Er, recalling what she had told him earlier.

    "Maybe." He muttered.

    "But good luck to them." Heughed as he looked at Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng.

    He is not anxious because he is being surrounded by four great saintesses that can each kick another cultivator''s ass quite easily. These four great saintesses are all power cultivators with their own unique divine arts.

    If he did not have an immortal-step divine sword in his hands, he really cannot say that he can stand on an equal term with them now.

    Mu Wan''Er was alluring enough to catch the eyes of the many cultivators here. There were also many beautiful females around but behind Mu Wan''Er were four most peerless maidens and they were too eye candies for the majority of the male cultivators.

    Therefore they were the secret focus of many.

    Ji Yuan was also a really most handsome cultivation and he had a charming and roguish grin that many female cultivators like. And the most important reason of all, he was a beardless beautiful cultivator. Therefore he too, had caught the attention of many female cultivators who were all eager to know who he was.

    The dark robe cultivation who did not alight from the eerie ship echoed his voice to everyone. "The first trial of this ind starts now. In front of you is a sky bridge. Cross that sky bridge and you will pass the first trial of many. If you wish to turn back or have no desire to take the trials, you may stay here for the time being."

    Most of the 150 cultivators were in high spirits as they all turned inward into the interior of the ind.

    As Ji Yuan moved with his group into the interior, he was somewhat startled to see that the four cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity remained rooted on the ground. It was as though they had no wish to take the trial!

    But as Ji Yuan was eager to take the trial, he only paid a scant attention to them.

    These four cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity all had their heads lowered and were trying their best not to look into the eyes of Ji Yuan and his group.

    Only when Ji Yuan and his group were out of their sight, did they heave a soft sigh and they were all muttering silently. "I have never seen Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue are the talking point of the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. Everyone knows how beautiful Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue are and even if they did not know who Ji Yuan was previously, they all know him as the guy that had won the heart of the number one great beauty Xue Qianxue who is the idol in almost all the men''s hearts, including the unorthodox cultivators.

    Although Ling Feiyue''s great beauty is also on par with Xue Qianxue but not many orthodox cultivators would dare to openly woo her because she is an unorthodox cultivator. Moreover, she has rarely appeared in front of fraternity atrge and is usually in disguise.<sub> </sub>

    These four cultivators certainly know who Shui Sisi and Little Princess are as Shui Sisi had been stirring a lot of attention in recent months with her stunning visits all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity. As for Little Princess, she had kept no secret of who she is after she is with Ji Yuan.

    Moreover, she is really an astonishing seductive maiden that filled many men with lusts; there are few men that did not want to know who she is.

    Bai Qianfeng''s great beauty is no lesser than Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue or Little Princess but no one really knows her name or origin as she has kept to herself.

    After a short time, beyond the forest canopy of the beauty, Ji Yuan and his group had followed the rest of the cultivators to the other side and they hade to a deep chasm in front of them that had split the ground into two.

    On the other side of the chasm were two portals; one blue and one green.

    The blue portal will take the cultivators to the next trial while the green portal will remove the cultivators from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    But few cultivators were eying the green portal as this was only the first level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This was too early to call it quit.

    In front of the chasm was a bridge that was made of ropes.

    Although the winds were fierce but it would pose no trouble for the majority of the cultivators.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he muttered. "It is so simple?"

    Shui Xisi immediately said to him. "We should cross the bridge now in case it is cut by the others."

    Ling Feiyue nodded as she eximed quietly. "I agree too."

    But Ji Yuan quickly whispered. "Wait. Don''t go yet."

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue: ???

    Mu Wan''Er, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng: ???

    There were many cultivators that were having the same thoughts as Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue. Therefore they were all rushing for the rope bridge now.

    The first one to cross would be safe!

    Almost immediately, one hundred cultivators were all crossing the rope bridge at the same time!

    When everyone was halfway across, a cultivator was grinning behind them as he suddenly cut the rope bridge with his sword, sending one hundred cultivators that were in front of him to plunge down the deep chasm!

    Instantly, there were loud screams as over a hundred cultivators plunged down to the river underneath the deep chasm.

    Most would probably not die from the plunge but no one know where they would be washing to next¡­

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "What the heck¡­" He had expected an evil cultivator to cut the rope once he was across the chasm but he had not expected that the evil cultivator would wait at the start point to cut the rope!

    That evil cultivator was quickly killed by the fifty cultivators that had not crossed the bridge yet, including a palm strike from Little Princess who was enraged that he had caused everyone to fail their first trial and waste their time.

    Now they had to find another trial in the vast level one Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth again!

    "So we have all failed the trial¡­" Ling Feiyue was smiling bitterly. "And we have not even begun yet."

    Ji Yuan walked quietly to the edge of the chasm as he examined carefully before he said quietly. "No, there is another way across this chasm."

    Although he had said it softly but the rest of the cultivators were all suddenly looking at Ji Yuan as they asked curiously. "What is it?"

    Even Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Mu Wan''Er and Ling Feiyue all had a bewildered look on their countenances as they could not figure out what way was Ji Yuan talking about?

 Chapter 220 The Trial Of The Water (4)

    "No, there is another way across this chasm." Ji Yuan had said all of a sudden and he had immediately attracted the attention of all the cultivators around him.

    Many of the cultivators were now looking and smiling bitterly as they looked at Ji Yuan for an answer; this chasm is over fifty yards and is impossible for anyone to jump across unless they are a bird.

    One of the cultivators sarcastically said. "So what is your bright idea or are you trying to impress the maidens that are behind you?"

    Many of the cultivators were allughing and many were nodding. With five beautiful maidens behind Ji Yuan, naturally he would try his very best to impress them so that he would look good in front of them.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he cursed them silently; do I even need to impress them when I can bed them anytime? You''re all fools¡­

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was looking at a veiled maiden in white who was looking down at the chasm and her eyes were staring intently in front of her.

    She was also the only one that was not looking at Ji Yuan for answer.

    All of a sudden he raised his voice to say deeply. "Maiden. The veiled maiden in white. I think that I''ve seen you somewhere before."

    Many of the cultivators were now speechless and they were evenughing now. This cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity is now chasing skirts in front of them now.

    It was obvious to them that he was just trying to impress the maidens in the group.

    Ling Feiyue was exasperated when she had heard Ji Yuan and she quickly whispered to the rest of her group. "Ji Yuan can''t even recognize Mu Wan''Er just now and yet he is iming that he is able to recognize this veiled maiden from nowhere. I''m utterly speechless."

    All the maidens were smiling bitterly and they were nodding; it was obvious that Ji Yuan would not be able to recognize this maiden as her clothing was not from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The many celestial fraternities were all separated by extremely treacherous terrains and no man''snds. It was nearly impossible for the cultivators from different celestial fraternities to visit one another.

    The veiled maiden in white shifted her body slightly and she rolled her pristine colored eyeshes as she nodded. "You''ve managed to recognize me?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he lifted his nose with a soft sniff. "Haha. Of course I do. If I am not mistaken, you''re Maiden Feng Minyue?"

    There was a slight shudder that came from the veiled white maiden before she nodded with a sh of her watery eyes. "I really didn''t expect for you to recognize me and I didn''t expect for you to remember my name."

    "Feng Minyue?!" All of a sudden, several cultivators from the Nine Celestial Fraternity were all taken aback as they gasped.

    Feng Minyue was once regarded as the number one top great beauty in the entire Nine Celestial Fraternity until she was overtaken by Fan Yuqing. At the same time she is also a renowned heroine and a great saintess. Nowadays very few cultivators were able to catch a glimpse of her as she had long entered seclusion.

    At the same time Feng Minyue is also the Matriarch of the Heavenly Fragrance Vi, one of the nine major orthodox patriarch powerhouses of the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. Of course, I do recognize senior. We had even taken part in the same trial before and we were even in the same group fighting against amon enemy before."

    Feng Minyue had a perplexed look because she hadpletely changed her dress and even her hairstyle since she hadst met Ji Yuan. Moreover she could not remember taking off her veil so how could this Ji Yuan still be able to recognize her then?

    Ling Feiyue was stunned. She did recall partying up with Feng Minyue before but there was no way that she could recognize her behind her veil and moreover she looked slightly different now¡­

    How did Ji Yuan possibly have recognized her?

    All the other cultivators were somewhat startled and the cultivators from the Nine Celestial Fraternity were even more startled because a stranger from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had recognized their goddess from the Nine Celestial Fraternity!

    Ji Yuan of course did not recognize her at first sight or else he would be looking at her direction from the very start. But he had really very sharp nose. When the direction of the winds had changed toward his direction, he had sniffed a familiar unique fragrance that belonged to Feng Minyue.

    Therefore he had naturally recognized her.

    But he wanted to make sure first and that was why he was enquiring after her.

    Ling Feiyue had also approached Feng Minyue as she started to smile weakly. "I didn''t recognize you. So we have met again."

    Feng Minyue nodded gently. "Maiden Feiyue, how are you?" Then she appeared tough softly. "You look much better in woman''s clothing."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. She had disguised as a man while she was in the Lotus Sword Mansion Trial.

    Ji Yuan asked Feng Minyue. "You seem to have found a way too?"

    Feng Minyue nodded slightly. "I have two ways."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan was truly startled. He had only thought of only one way.

    Feng Minyue unveiled herself so that it would be easier for her to speak and when she unveiled herself, everyone was gasping; men and women were all startled by her great alluring and moving beauty. Moreover Feng Minyue had a graceful and polite demeanor that caused the eyes of all the men to stare at her wondrous presence.

    "We can leap across once the direction of the winds change in our favors. Are you thinking of that?" Feng Minyue asked softly.

    Ji Yuanughed. "Indeed. I am really thinking about it."<sub> </sub>

    To a great saint like Ji Yuan, he was actually confidence that he would be able to leap across the chasm.

    Many of the cultivators were all shaking their heads with disbelief; there were no way for the majority to leap fifty yards across and moreover they did not know how long must they wait for the winds to change its direction.

    Also there seemed to be a powerful wind vortex that was sucking and pulling all the cultivators to the deep chasm below.

    "So what is the second way?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Feng Minyue smiled. "Jump down the chasm."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "Then won''t we fail the trial already?"

    Feng Minyue answered coolly. "There is a strong water element in this ce. If I am not wrong then we are actually in a Trial of the Water. And the way to the next trial is via the water below the chasm and not across the chasm."

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes and he had a perplexed look.

    No way, I am going to jump down the chasm. She may be wrong. Right, Xiang Li?

    Xiang Li chuckled softly in his soul sea. "Big Brother, I remember this big sister too. She has a pure heart too. So when are you going to bang her?"

    Ji Yuan nearly coughed aloud when he had heard Xiang Li as he started to scold her in his soul sea. "Look Xiang Li, I don''t even know her well so how can I bang her? You can''t bang anyone just like this, you know? Moreover, she may not be interested in me."

    "So you are hoping that she will be interested in you then?" Xiang Li suggested with a soft giggle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, she is right. This is indeed the Trial of the Water." Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden as she approached them.

    "If we jump across this chasm then we will be taking a longer route and may even be misled by the trial itself. The powerful golden celestials may think that they have an advantage but the trials are cunning designed to cater for the less powerful golden celestials as well. Powerful but not wise enough will cause you to fail the trial."

    Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Mu Wan''Er had also approached them as they asked Ji Yuan. "So do we attempt a leap across the chasm or jump down the chasm?"

    This question had suddenly be a talking point among the rest of the fifty cultivators.

    Many of the cultivators were shaking their heads. They could not jump across the chasm but what if jumping into the chasm would be a stupid mistake?

    Some cultivators were smiling bitterly. "What if there are deste monsters waiting at the depths below for us. It will be foolish for us to jump down the chasm."

    "Ji Yuan, so what options do we take?" The maidens in his group were all asking him.

    "You''re the leader so you have to decide the best course of option for us."

    Ji Yuan turned to smile at Feng Minyue, "So which option will you pick?"

    Feng Minyue looked at the chasm below as she pointed her finger at it. "I will attempt the second option. What about you?"

    Xiang Li had a sad expression on her as she shook her head. "Big Brother hates water so he won''t follow this pretty big sister¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi knew that Ji Yuan would pick the first option as they could tell that he hated the water.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he said firmly. "I will take the plunge down the chasm. So are we on for that?"

    The maidens in his group were all startled that Ji Yuan was picking the second option¡­

    Mu Wan''Er was a little relieved because her lightless profound skill was not particr good enough to carry her through. For a moment she had thought that Ji Yuan would abandon her.

    She thought. "He is doing this for my sake?"

    Xiang Li was also surprised. "Big Brother, you are jumping into the water?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "This is a golden opportunity to see all the pretty maidens getting wet. Do you want to miss something like this?"

    Xiang Li had a sudden realization as well and she was beaming with great delight. "I don''t want to miss this golden opportunity as well!"

 Chapter 221 The Trial Of The Water (5)

    As Ji Yuan decided on jumping into the chasm, he rolled his eyes as he asked Xiang Li quietly. "Xiang Li, do you know how to swim?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Is it hard?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You obviously do not know how to swim¡­"

    All of a sudden Feng Minyue had leapt down into the chasm below without a word.

    When Ji Yuan saw that she had taken the first plunge, he forced a smile to the maidens in his group. "Well, what are you all waiting for?"

    "If you are not afraid of jumping from this height then let''s go now." Ji Yuan suggested.

    All the maidens chuckled and said. "We''re not afraid."

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled as she took the initiative to jump down the chasm.

    She was quickly followed by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Mu Wan''Er.

    As the maidens had already jumped, Ji Yuan also jumped down into the chasm.

    He was not afraid of heights but he was frowning that he had to take the plunge into the water which he hated.

    All of a sudden he had noticed that Shui Xisi was taking the slow descend down while all the other maidens had already dropped into the fast moving waters below.

    He was frowning with surprise now.

    A cultivator''s profound animus could slow down their descend in the air but they would still descend quite rapidly below but Shui Xisi was different; Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that she was the only one that was capable of flight with her hidden immortal-step divine sword that was wrapped around her waist.

    Heughed as he grabbed her by the waist. "My dear Sisi, do you mind ferrying me across the river? Then I don''t need to get wet¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisiughed jovially as she kicked him down into the river below. "We''re supposed to keep our rtionship a secret so here you go¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    And Ji Yuan had dropped into the fast running river below¡­

    As he fell into the running river below, he was cursing at Sisi while she hovered right above him with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked up under her skirt. "You''re wearing pink am I right?"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi gasped as she attempted to pull her skirt down while trying to kick Ji Yuan.

    However this time Ji Yuan was prepared and he had grabbed her ankle and pulled her down the river underneath.

    "You!..."

    "Let''s have a couple swim together then." Ji Yuanughed as he pulled down under the river.

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know how to swim but he could definitely hold his breath for quite some time.

    "I need some crash course on swimming. Can you show me?" Ji Yuan grabbed her.

    Shui Sisi gave him a resigned look. She actually did not want to get wet and now Ji Yuan was caressing her body¡­

    "You got to kick your legs like me and don''t look underneath my skirt."

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "But if I don''t look, how am I able to learn swimming from you?"

    Shui Sisi gave a weak protest before she gave up on arguing with him. "Remember to hold your head above the water as you kick. Whenever you have the chance to exchange your vital breath, do so unless you want to drown."

    Ji Yuan did as he was told and he used his profound animus to lift his body and head above the water. "This is easy¡­"

    "That is because you are a golden celestial or else you would have already drowned by now." Shui Xisi said weakly.

    "Haha. Luckily I am." Ji Yuanughed. "Swimming seems easy with a beauty like you."

    Shui Xisi said weakly. "You have better focused on getting ahead of the group first. We are nowgging behind."

    Ji Yuan grinned. "I''m not worried at all so why should you be? Shouldn''t we be enjoying our romantic swim together?"

    Shui Sisi returned a shy look before she giggled. "Fat hope!" But she was actually enjoying it.

    The reason why she did not dare to flirt openly with Ji Yuan was because there were now dozens of cultivators that had jumped into the river and they were just behind them.

    Therefore they could only continue to swim in the rapid flowing river as they followed behind the other maidens that were in front of them.

    After some time, Ji Yuan had improvised his swimming technique and he was even swimming alongside Bai Qianfeng who had leapt down to the river first.

    "Haha. It seems that swimming isn''t hard at all." Ji Yuanughed as he swam past all the maidens.

    This caused Shui Sisi to be a little startled as she did not know that Ji Yuan would turn out to be such a strong swimmer.

    Ji Yuan of course had good reasons to be a strong swimmer. He was highly motivated to swim ahead of the group so that he could admire all of them.

    In fact, he was drooling at the same time as he was swimming in the strong water currents.<sub> </sub>

    Even Xiang Li too.

    "Howe Ji Yuan can swim so well?"

    "He is like a duck now¡­"

    "Impossible¡­"

    "Who teach him how to swim?"

    Shui Xisi protested almost immediately. "Not me¡­he just copied from me."

    "Haha. I am beginning to enjoy swimming." Ji Yuan said as he looked lecherous at the maidens.

    All the maidens, including Mu Wan''Er was flustered because they could see that Ji Yuan''s eyes were wandering on their body now¡­

    Ji Yuanughed as he swam ahead of them. "Well, let''s have a race to the finishing line first."

    As a matter of fact, he had swum ahead of them.

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "Why is he in such a hurry to swim ahead?"

    Shui Xisi frowned unhappily. "That is because ahead of us is a great beauty and he is trying to swim to her."

    Indeed, Ji Yuan was trying to catch up with Feng Minyue now and therefore he was highly motivated to swim ahead.

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Little Princess muttered. "You know that is how babies are made. They always swim toward the eggs."

    "Sister Lingyun¡­" Bai Qianfeng could not resist a weak mutter. "This is too crude."

    Little Princessughed. "My dear Sister Qianfeng, you got to get used to this."

    Mu Wan''Er and Shui Xisi were flustered by the awkward annotations that were used by Little Princess. It was also because the two of them were currently outsiders and they were not as close as Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue in terms of their rtionship with Ji Yuan.

    Although Ji Yuan was now a strong swimmer but he was not yet a good swimmer because no matter how hard he had tried, he could not catch up with Feng Minyue. However he did have a good view of her in front of him and he did not mind.

    The reason why he could not catch up with her was because she seemed to be able to swim like a fish and he was actually feeling he was growing tired the more that he had tried to use his strength to swim in the water currents.

    After some time, they seemed to have reached a bank and Feng Minyue had leapt out of the water as shended on the bank.

    She had disyed her profound animus instantly to dry her clothing.

    This caused Ji Yuan to be a little disappointed.

    Feng Minyue smiled. "Do you know that the harder you try to swim, the more strength that you will require and you will end up getting yourself exhausted?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Now I know."

    The two of them quickly took a quick look around and spotted hundreds of footsteps that led into a cave that was near the bank.

    This must be where most of the fallen cultivators that were ahead of them had walked into.

    As they concluded quietly, the rest of the maidens had swiftly leapt out of the waters to join them. They too, had quickly disyed their profound animus to dry their clothing.

    "Where are we now?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    "Over there." Bai Qianfeng said as she pointed at the cave ahead of them.

    Little Princess nodded with a smile. "I was expecting a sea monster to appear but¡­"

    Shui Xisi added teasingly. "But¡­so far only one lecherous monster has appeared."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Feng Minyue had already begun to walk toward the cave when Ji Yuan called out to her. "Since senior you''re alone, why don''t we travel together in a group? There will be at least safety in numbers."

    Feng Minyue took a cautious look at Ji Yuan and his group before she muttered. "I appreciate it but¡­"

    "Let''s go together then." Ji Yuan said as heughed as he marched toward the cave.

    Feng Minyue was startled. "Um? I didn''t say that I will be¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already assumed that he was the leader as he took the lead into the cave, leaving Feng Minyue with no other choice but to follow his lead; she was already taking steps to the cave when Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her and stolen the march on her.

    She sighed softly as she began to follow Ji Yuan.

    Behind her were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Mu Wan''Er who were looking on with some awkward speechless expressions. It was because they did not expect that Ji Yuan would be so thick skin and so shameless¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Yea. All of you! Come follow my Big Brother!"

 Chapter 222 The Trial Of The Mountains (1)

    The cave was not huge.

    As a matter of fact when Ji Yuan and his group had entered the cave, in less than an hour they had quickly exited the cave to the other side.

    There was only a single passage and it was more like a tunnel.

    On the other side of the cave, they soon came to a ridge and on this ridge was a golden bridge to the other side.

    And on the other side were a hundred cultivators that were meditating.

    The dark robe ferryman was seen on the other side and it seemed that he had an unhappy countenance.

    When Ji Yuan and his group had crossed over to the other side, the dark robe ferryman muttered in the usual eerie tone. "You have passed the first trial."

    He could not resist adding. "There seem to be a little too many for the second trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan and his group of course knew what he was referring to; they were not supposed to know that the real trial exit was actually below the chasm. A freak ident by an evil cultivator had caused the majority of the cultivators to pass the first trial and they had the dead cultivator to thank for.

    The trial was designed to test all the cultivators regardless of their realm cultivation level. Moreover this was the first level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the expectations were for the fifth realm cultivators to pass.

    Many of the cultivators had noticed Feng Minyue by now because she had forgotten to put on her veil after her swim and they were all looking in her direction as well as the direction of the other maidens in Ji Yuan''s group.

    As Ji Yuan walked to join the existing group of cultivators, many of them could not resist passing ament.

    "Who is he?"

    "Why is he in apany of a group of maidens?"

    "He must be a lecherous man¡­"

    "Maybe he is a eunuch. He has no beard at all¡­"

    "His facial is too clean; he has to be a eunuch."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am a eunuch? Just because I have a beautiful face and is beardless?!

    He suppressed the urge to bash the nearest cultivator that wasmenting at him. After all, he did not want to end up in a fight with so many unruly cultivators.

    So he could not grin and said with a soft sigh. "I have no other choice. These maidens are attracted to my beautiful looks and are following me. No matter how hard I am trying to shake them off, I cannot stop them from following me. I must be the most pitiful man in the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth right now. s¡­sigh¡­"

    The rest of the cultivators: ¡­

    The maidens in his group: ¡­

    Everyone was cursing him now; shameless! Thick skin! Egoistic! Narcissistic!

    Ji Yuanughed as he found an empty spot to stand.

    Behind Ji Yuan''s group were the sights of thirty more cultivators; they too had jumped down behind Ji Yuan''s group into the chasm.

    After a while, the dark robe cultivator echoed to everyone. "The rest of the cultivators have failed this trial and they will not being here anymore."

    Everyone was gasping; around twenty cultivators had failed one way or another.

    The dark robe cultivator seemed to be frowning. "A little too many of you seem to have passed the first trial by an idental act but I wonder how many of you will pass the second part of this trial."

    As he spoke, there were two portals that had appeared; one green and one golden.

    "If you want to leave this trial, take the green trial and you will be rewarded forpleting the first part of the trial. But if you want to stay in a safe ce till the end of the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, you may take the golden portal."

    Then with an eerieugh. "But if you want to take the second part of this trial which won''t be easy at all, you may follow me."

    As heughed, he waited for the rest of the cultivators to pick the blue portal and the golden portal but none of the cultivators had made a move.

    The dark robe ferryman: ¡­

    The dark robe ferryman: ¡­

    The dark robe ferryman: ¡­

    These cultivators were all the cream of the crop that had volunteered to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. They were all here for the profound treasures of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they were not here to be a coward. Many of them even had the ambitions to reach to the highest level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.<sub> </sub>

    As a matter of fact, a third of these cultivators are of the sixth realm level and above and they are all eager to reach the third level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth where the profound treasures are rarer and more astonishing.

    The dark robe ferryman muttered. "Then follow me."

    As he said that, he began to run through the narrow ridges of the mountains. "That is, if you able to catch up with me."

    In a blink of an eye, he was already very far and almost vanished to a dot!

    Immediately all the cultivators were startled as they began to run after him panicky.

    "Don''t stop or we''ll lose track of him!"

    "There is a heavy fog in these mountains. If we do not catch up with him, we may be lost!"

    "Get out of my way!"

    "Stop staring; go after him immediately!"

    Ji Yuan and his group had reacted almost immediately and they were among the first group of cultivators that were right behind the dark robe ferryman.

    Mu Wan''Er was startled that her group was all experts in their lightless movement profound arts and they had no issue following the dark robe ferryman.

    As a matter of fact, she seemed to be the slowest.

    The dark ferryman was just walking rapidly but his strides were broad and he seemed to be running rapidly through the mountain paths. But that was only an illusion as he was moving very quickly.

    Ji Yuan was a little anxious because it seemed that this dark ferryman was moving too fast and he did not seem to be doing his best yet.

    And he was a little anxious for Mu Wan''Er as he did not want to abandon her.

    Although Mu Wan''Er was not really part of his core group but since she had already joined his temporary group, he did not want to abandon her and he did not want anything untold to befall her.

    So he made a mental note to watch out for her in case she was too far behind.

    All of a sudden the dark ferryman had made a leapt across the two mountain ridges that had a chasm below and the distance was twenty yards.

    Twenty yards were not a big issue for Ji Yuan and most of the maidens as they were all great saints and saintesses that could maintain a temporary burst of their profound animus to carry them across.

    As though Mu Wan''Er could guess Ji Yuan''s thoughts, she said aloud. "I can go across on my own."

    Feng Minyue whispered to Ji Yuan. "This is only a level one trial so it should not be too difficult for even a fifth realm golden cultivator unless they did not put in any effort into their lightless profound art. This is something that most cultivators in my celestial fraternity will usually put their focus into first."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "In my celestial fraternity, lightless profound arts are frowned upon and most of the cultivators in my celestial fraternity disdain it because it is a cowardice art."

    Feng Minyue smiled. "Still, this trial won''t be too difficult for the rest or else this won''t be a level one trial. The objective of this trial is to exhaust the profound strength of the cultivators so this must be something that you ought to be wary of."

    Ji Yuan nodded and offered his thanks before he chuckled. "You seem to be quite experienced. Have you been to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth before?"

    Feng Minyue nodded gently. "A few times."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The rest of the maidens: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue could not resist asking from behind them. "So, how many times have you been to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Feng Minyue smiled as she gave an elusive answer. "Not many times."

    Little Princess asked. "What is the highest level that you have been to?"

    Feng Minyue smiled. "I''ve been to the highest level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth already."

    Ji Yuan, the rest of the maidens: ¡­

    "My Sister Fan Yuqing is the one that had led me to the top thest time. In the past, there are no group restrictions so we are able to travel in a group. But now it is different." Feng Minyue chuckled softly. "I am merely a follower."

    Shui Xisi gasped as she shed next to Feng Minyue as sheughed, "You know Fan Yuqing? What a coincidence. I''m her half-sister Shui Xisi."

    Feng Minyue gasped. "Then you are¡­"

    Shui Xisiughed as she winked her eyes. "Secret."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The rest of the maidens: ???

 Chapter 223 The Trial Of The Mountains (2)

    After the Dark Robe Ferryman had leapt down a ridge across to the other side of the mountain, he had sped through between two mountains.

    But all the cultivators, including Ji Yuan had all halted in their steps.

    It was because they had suddenly spotted dozens of gigantic deste spider monsters on the other side.

    These deste spider monsters are called the Hundred Eyes Weavers and they are all fifth rank profound deste monsters; they are slow moving unless they were attacked and their reactions to being attacked were swift. They are so swift that they can be considered sixth rank deste monsters when they are being attacked.

    One must know that even a fifth deste monster can kill even a saint if they are careless because the sharp talons of these gigantic Hundred Eyes Weavers can prated through even through the most formidable profound animus of the cultivators.

    No matter how strong the profound strength of a cultivator is, deste monsters are on a different league with these ferocious deste monsters which are superior in all aspects.

    In order to kill even a mid-level deste monster, all the golden celestials have to put forth all their profound skills to the tests. If they are careless and stand still then they will be killed in the next instant.

    That is why besides the seven cultivation realm level of the cultivators, there is also the three cultivation stages and the ten cultivation steps.

    The ten cultivation steps are often neglected because it is hard to measure. For example, when a cultivation is not making an offensive, the cultivation offensive step is often 0. When the cultivation offensive step is 0, the cultivator will be doing 0 damage no matter how high his cultivation realm level and stage is because everything multiply by 0 will be 0.

    But when a cultivator uses his sword to attack something, his cultivation step will increase to 3 for example. This is due to his basic sword training and his innate experience inbat in making an offensive. If the cultivator is making a powerful offensive, his offensive cultivation step will increase to 4 or 5 depending on how powerful his profound art is.

    The cultivation step is hard to measure because it is invisible to the cultivators. Every cultivation step is twice as difficult to advance than thest step.

    Therefore the average cultivator will only have a cultivation step of 3. And it can even be worse.

    Ji Yuan used to have a cultivation soul step of only 1.5, far below the average step of the average cultivator.

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the dozens of Hundred Eyes Weavers as he muttered. "So we have to go through the legs of these Hundred Eyes Weavers? How do we know if these monsters won''t attack us all of a sudden?"

    Mu Wan''Er was also afraid as she nodded. "These Hundred Eyes Weavers aren''t blind for sure. In fact, they have dozens of eyes on their legs and that are why they are known as the Hundred Eyes Weavers."

    Ling Feiyue agreed with her as she nodded. "They react once the cultivators are within their striking range. These deste monsters are actually cunning monsters and are luring the cultivators into a false sense ofcency."

    Many of the cultivators nearby were all agreeing with her.

    "With so many of us, these Hundred Eyes Weavers are not blind to our presence¡­"

    "So should we go jump across to the other side of the ridge or?"

    But at the same time many of the cultivators were also panicky because the dark robe ferryman was fast vanishing soon as he continued to march forward without stopping.

    All the cultivators know that they had to make a decision now or never.

    Feng Minyue whispered to Ji Yuan and his group. "It is impossible for us not to alert these deste monsters. They are only faking their immobilization to lure us into a false sense of security. However, we can speed through to them. But this is risky and will depend on our skill in evading them. I will advise that the weaker cultivators to give up on this trial..."

    But Ji Yuan said as he leapt forward across the ridge. "There is no time to lose. We may not be able to beat all of them but we can definitely intimidate them into retreating."

    Immediately he had unsheathed his immortal sword and the powerful animus of his divine sword immediately awed all the cultivators, including the Hundred Eyes Weavers.

    "He has an immortal-step divine sword?!"

    "Who is he?"

    "He is not just a pretty face?"

    "In order to have an immortal-step divine sword, he must have a most impressive background¡­"

    In several blinks of an eye, Ji Yuan had lifted his immortal-step divine sword and the double halo of his sword was like the burning sun as the sword spirit on his forehead augmented the profound power of his profound strength.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "I don''t care about the rest but I can''t afford to have injuries to happen to my own group¡­"

    Then he said coldly. "Since you want to pretend to be immobilized then you don''t mind sacrificing some of your numbers here?"

    When he had finished speaking, there was a brilliant light on his divine sword that shed forth like a coiling dragon that immediately struck more than ten deste monsters in a straight line and instantly annihting them!<sub> </sub>

    "What is that profound attack?!"

    "I have never seen anything like this before?"

    "This profound energies is a mixture of sword energies and pure profound energies¡­"

    Ji Yuan had unleashed his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and he had created an instant devastating effect as he scattered the remaining Hundred Eyes Weavers.

    In that instant, Bai Qianfeng had also shed next to Ji Yuan as she disyed her own immortal-step divine sword and she had disyed her profound animus.

    As she is a power cultivator, the profound power of her profound animus coupled together with her immortal-step divine sword had a fearsome hold on the remaining Hundred Eyes Weavers as it caused them to retreat slowly.

    Ji Yuan saw that the Hundred Eyes Weavers were afraid of Bai Qianfeng as he smiled weakly. "Well, your act is more impressive than me."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she gently caught hold of Ji Yuan''s arm. "Without my lord''s earlier stunning disy, these Hundred Eyes Weavers will not retreat so easily. You are the trigger point. Your Qianfeng is only good at intimidating them only after you have done the main action."

    "Haha. Qianfeng, you really know how to please me." Ji Yuanughed.

    When the other cultivators saw that Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng had cleared a path for them, all the cultivators did not hesitate anymore and they were all leaping across the ridge to the other side.

    Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng remained in position on the left and right side of the path as they shed their immortal-step divine swords in a threatening gesture to intimidate the dozens of Hundred Eyes Weavers while the cultivators ran past them.

    Many of the cultivators were bowing with their hands to Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng as they ran past them, offering their heartfelt thanks.

    Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and Mu Wan''Er remained with Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng to reinforce them in case of any emergencies.

    Luckily the Hundred Eyes Weavers did not attack.

    Soon all the remaining cultivators had ran past Ji Yuan and had quickly disappeared in the trails ahead.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to Feng Minyue. "You are not going ahead?"

    Feng Minyue lowered her eyes to say. "I''m in no hurry."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly as she gave Ji Yuan a hard kick. "You have used up one trump card for everyone. Is it worth it?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "For you, it is worth it."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Little Princess giggled softly. "Come, let''s go or we won''t be able to catch up the dark robe ferryman."

    "Yea." Shui Xisi agreed.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he ran together with his group but his eyes were still watching the nearby Hundred Eyes Weavers.

    Shui Xisi was sighing silently to herself as she watched Ji Yuan''s back. "He is really a gentleman of the sword¡­he has actually used his profound strength to benefit everyone¡­"

    p Although Ji Yuan did not know the majority of the cultivators here and he knew that they were even badmouthing him earlier but he was not a petty man. His main objectives were to follow the dark robe ferryman and to ensure the safety of his own party.</anda>

    Feng Minyue was also gasping quietly as she watched Ji Yuan intently; I''ve always thought that the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all barbarians. There is actually a heroic cultivator among them?

    There were many cultivators that would rather preserve their own profound strength for real contingencies as it was difficult for the cultivator to recover their profound strength in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    As a matter of fact, many would rather watch while the other cultivators suffer, preferring to go elsewhere for another trial. After all, it was always good to eliminate thepetition.

    But for Ji Yuan, he had cleared the path for hispetitors without a second thought.

    Feng Minyue rolled her eyes as she pondered. "What kind of a man is this Ji Yuan?"

    She also had another question as she watched Bai Qianfeng. "And who is this maiden? She also wields an immortal sword."

 Chapter 224 The Trial Of The Mountains (3)

    After leaving the Hundred Eyes Weavers behind, Ji Yuan and his party quickly ran after the rest of the cultivators.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan and his party, they were all sixth realm and above cultivators. Therefore they just need to muster a little of their profound strength and soon they had caught up with the rest of the cultivators in front of them, including the dark robe ferryman.

    The dark robe ferryman was now climbing up a steep mountain and the slope of this mountain was not only steep but was also inclining in an awkward manner, which made following him difficult and exhausting.

    All these cultivators were all mountain climbers but there were also many cultivators had not been in the rugged mountains for a long time and they could not catch up anymore.

    After some time, more than thirty cultivators weregging behind and they soon gave up on following the dark robe ferryman.

    These cultivators were all cursing breathlessly. "How did this trial end up to be a stamina trial?!"

    Ji Yuan was frowning. "What the heck? He keeps going up and we have not even reached the mountain top yet¡­"

    As a matter of fact, the mountain top was covered by a thick canopy and no one could see the mountain top.

    Ji Yuan had purposely slowed himself down so that Mu Wan''Er could keep up her pace with him.

    For Ji Yuan, he could catch up with the dark robe ferryman anytime as long so far as the dark robe ferryman continued to maintain at his current pace.

    He was actually thinking. "I don''t think he will run or increase his current pace or else this won''t be the first level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    All of a sudden the dark robe ferryman had turned around there was an eerie grin on his skeleton face as he pointed his finger at the cultivators that were behind him.

    To the utter shock of all the cultivators, the entire mountains were now shaking as though there was an earthquake and the earth was splitting right in front of them!

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his lightless profound skill as he shouted. "Everyone, leap forward as fast as you can!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Mu Wan''Er had all disyed their lightless profound skills as they quickly leapt over the ground which was now riddled with deep holes.

    Many of the cultivators were caught in the many deep holes that had appeared all of sudden, including several saints.

    Some others were pushed into the deep holes by the others as everyone waspeting against each other for spaces.

    The only party that had space to leap forward and to evade the deep holes that were ushered apart by the earthquake were Ji Yuan and his party; it was because everyone seemed to have a grudging respect for Ji Yuan and his party. Therefore they had purposely tried not to move into their way.

    Ji Yuan was actually grateful as he sighed softly.

    When the earthquake had ceased after some time, more than half of the cultivators had disappeared into the deep holes.

    The dark robe ferrymanughed coldly. "Don''t worry. They are not dead but are taken elsewhere in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But they won''t be taking this trial anymore."

    When he had finished speaking, he had turned around to continue to the mountain top.

    The rest of the cultivators numbering some fifty now were all staring with an exhausted look at the dark ferryman. Many of them had exhausted their profound strength trying to catch up with the dark ferryman and many more had exhausted their profound strength trying to evade the multiple holes that had split up.

    After the dark ferryman had run for some time, around ten more cultivators had chosen to give up as they copsed exhausted on the ground.

    Mu Wan''Er was also extremely exhausted and she knew that she was at her limits.

    Lately she had been failing all her trials¡­

    As her head wobbled, she was suddenly seized up by Ji Yuan who said to her. "Let me carry you first. You may rest on my arms first."

    Ji Yuan had seized her and was now carrying her with his strong arms.

    Mu Wan''Er gasped softly as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan. "You will only exhaust yourself by carrying me and you may even fail your trial because of me¡­"

    "Haha. You''re not so heavy. I can manage it." Ji Yuan interrupted her with a soft chuckle.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly as she sped ahead, slightly angry that Ji Yuan was not holding her in his arms and instead he was holding another maiden in his arms now.

    For as long as she remembered, she had always been in Ji Yuan''s arms. At least while she was in her nine-tail spirit fox form.

    Little Princessughed softly. "Ji Yuan, why don''t you piggyback me?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "If you''re without any shame then I can piggyback you."

    Little Princess took a seductive look at Ji Yuan as she smiled quietly. "I am afraid that you will be the one that is going to be awkward, especially with a lovely maiden like me on your back."

    ? "Don''t bet on it." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Ling Feiyue hummed softly to Little Princess. "He is too shameless already. He doesn''t even have an extra pair of hands to carry you."

    "Indeed, he is too shameless." Little Princessughed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    As the other maidens teased Ji Yuan, Mu Wan''Er was the one feeling awkward as she was in Ji Yuan''s arms...<sub> </sub>

    -

    -

    -

    Three hourster, the dark robe ferryman had reached to the very top of the mountain as a t tformy in front of them.

    By now, only around thirty cultivators had reached to the very top.

    There were another ten plus cultivators that had dropped off, from the earlier forty plus cultivators that had survived the earthquake.

    Everyone including Ji Yuan was looking exhausted and tired; they had been running nonstop for many hours now and even the constant smiles that were on Shui Xisi had vanished.

    The only person that was not tired was the dark robe ferryman.

    Shui Xisi was cursing behind Ji Yuan, "If he continues to make me run like this, I swear that I will unsheathe my immortal sword and send him directly to the depths of hell."

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before she said sheepishly. "Count me in too."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned with displeasure. "He is the trial master. You can''t kill a trial master¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed. "You will never know unless you try. Celestial-step and Immortal-step divine swords can hurt the soul force of the trial master. Therefore we can kill him if we want to."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The dark robe ferryman hissed. "Good. The thirty of you are the survivors so far. Now it is time for the final trial."

    "Final trial? You mean this is not over yet?" One cultivator gasped with shock.

    Many of the cultivators were now muttering.

    The dark robe ferrymanughed eerily. "Of course not. This trial does not require you to use your brains and instead depend on your brawn. Therefore this trial will be slightly harder."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin. "Slightly harder?"

    Feng Minyue sighed softly. "Actually it is already way harder than many of the third level trials in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You''re sure?"

    Feng Minyue nodded quietly.

    All of a sudden the dark robe ferryman had be a gigantic dark sword in the middle of the tform.

    His voice began to resonate throughout the vicinity. "It isn''t easy for you to reach to the very top of the mountains. Therefore I shall give you an hour to gain an insight from this sword here. Remember you have only an hour and it starts now!"

    "What is this dark sword?"

    "Is this part of the trial?"

    "This dark sword seems to be wrapped around in a formidable darkness profound animus¡­"

    "I''ve never seen anything like this before¡­"

    "If we extend our divine sense into this sword then we may gain an insight¡­"

    "What are we waiting for? We only got an hour to meditate in front of this profound treasure!..."

    Ji Yuan was also looking intently at this gigantic sword and he was in awe; it was because he could sense numerous sword energies that were coursing through it. The pureness of this sword energies was something that he had never encountered before.

    But at the same time he was a little anxious because this gigantic dark sword was wrapped in a deste profound aura. Although its sword energies were pure but it was also highly erratic and looked untamed.

    Bai Qianfeng whispered to Ji Yuan as she gasped softly. "My lord, this sword is a spirit embodiment of a destroyed saint sword. If you can gain an insight from it, it will be beneficial to your sword art and even profound strength."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I can see it but it is also difficult to gain control over the insight. It has its benefits but it also has its bad side effects."

    He was a sword saint and with a single look, he could tell that this gigantic sword had a chaotic origin. Even as the others had begun to meditate in front of the gigantic ck sword, he was hesitant.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and rolled his eyes as he began to think...

 Chapter 225 The Trial Of The Mountains (4)

    Many of the cultivators were now closing their eyes as they began to mediate in front of the gigantic dark sword now.

    This included Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Mu Wan''Er and even Shui Xisi.

    The dark profound aura of the gigantic dark sword had a formidable presence and only the saints could mediate within 30 yards of it. Many of the fifth realm golden celestials were meditating a good 50 yards away.

    They had only one hour to gain any valuable insight and none of them had wanted to waste any moment to do so.

    Bai Qianfeng was excited as shown by her eyes.

    As a matter of fact, Ji Yuan had rarely seen her so excited before and this was actually the first time.

    Bai Qianfeng had good reasons to be excited because this was the spirit form of a saint sword, the most powerful ss of all the divine swords!

    She had quickly shared it with her other sisters and they too, were excited.

    Bai Qianfeng other sisters were Little Princess and Ling Feiyue, naturally.

    But Ji Yuan remained unmoved as he rubbed his chin; it was because this was too good to be true. He was actually thinking: I know the rewards in the Empyrean Warrior Empyrean are good but what the heck is a saint sword doing on the first level?

    He soon caught sight of Feng Minyue who had stayed far away from the gigantic sword. Rather, she was meditating to regain her profound strength than meditating with her divine sense on the sword.

    Although Feng Minyue did not disy her profound arts but Ji Yuan knew that she was a sword energies practitioner as her minute disy of her aura was sharp; this was something that only Ji Yuan was aware of.

    ? In the past, Ji Yuan had taken Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan as his core prot¨¦g¨¦s because they too had sharp auras that only a sword saint could identify.

    Therefore Ji Yuan knows that her sword energies profound art is not beneath him.

    "She has detected the same uneasy presence as me? That is why she has chosen not to mediate for any insight?" He was thinking.

    Ji Yuan was watching her keenly and he was impressed by her serenity. He knew instantly that this Maiden Feng Minyue had a high state of divinity in her cultivation and was unmoved by most things.

    Feng Minyue is a great saintess; she can advance to such a high state of cultivation while maintaining her serene divinity. This spoke volumes of her state of divinities in her cultivation.

    States of divinities are harder to measure than cultivation realm. It is because everyone can say that they are the strongest sword, one with the heaven and earth, immovable by any desires etc. but achieving true state of divinity is extremely difficult because they have to first triumph over their inner demons and to prove their superior state of divinity whenpared to the others.

    Feng Minyue had clearly aplished that.

    Under normal circumstances, Ji Yuan would surely like to know her a little better but he knew that it would be a terrible mistake if he tries to flirt with two maidens at the same time. He had noty his hands on Shui Xisi yet and it was dangerous to y with fire in front of this great beauty. Moreover, his main consorts were around too.

    Therefore he heaved a soft sigh as he had to let Feng Minyue go.

    He was clearly impressed by her.

    But it was perfectly fine to him not to flirt with her. After all, he did not want to have too many trees in his backyard.

    As he pondered, he had suddenly caught sight of Feng Minyue who was suddenly looking into his direction.

    Feng Minyue had a slight flush on her countenance before she averted her eyes before continuing on her meditation.

    Ji Yuan''s heart jumped because the look of a flushing maiden is the most beautiful sight and he was secretly moved.

    He began to mutter. This is too sin¡­"

    "This is too sinful¡­" Xiang Li had overridden him in his soul sea. "Big Brother, I think she is interested in you as well!"

    "Don''t talk rubbish. She isn''t. I was staring at her and she caught me looking in her direction. That''s why." Ji Yuan frowned.

    "But why would she be flushing if she isn''t interested in you?" Xiang Li asked.

    "Because I''m too handsome. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "You''re not."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''m ¡­"

    "You''re not." Xiang Li insisted.

    Yuan Ji frowned. "If I am not handsome, how did I manage to win Feiyue''s heart?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Because you are just too shameless!"

    Yuan Ji groaned. "Who taught you this? This doesn''t seem to being from you."

    "Sister Feiyue taught me." Xiang Liughed. "And Qianxue."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Darn. He just knew it. They''re always gossiping about me¡­

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan. "Big Brother, why are you not meditating yet? This is a saint spirit sword. It is once-in-a-lifetime insight."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly. "This is a demonic sword. Even though it may be a saint sword but it is still a demonic sword."

    All of a sudden he asked Xiang Li. "Can you remove the profound signature of this sword?"

    Xiang Li shook her head. "That dark robe ferryman has full control over it. Remember, I can''t do a thing if the master is still in control or near."

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly as he rolled his eyes to look at the dark profound aura that was radiating from the gigantic dark sword.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan found himself in a dark space and the image of the dark sword was now hovering in front of him.

    Ji Yuan was startled because he had suddenly gained an insight when he was least expecting it.

    "Xiang Li, are you there?"

    No reply.<sub> </sub>

    When Xiang Li did not reply him, he concluded that this was indeed an insight and had happened inside his mind.

    But what was triggering it?

    As he reached out to touch the dark sword, he had suddenly noticed that his sword spirit was on his forehand and it was glowing with a brilliant white re.

    He was startled because the sword spirit was not supposed to appear on his forehand¡­

    All of a sudden there was an electrifying pulse that shook him as he touched the dark sword. Almost immediately, the dark sword had disappeared into a white wisp of light into his palm.

    "Where is the dark sword?"

    As he examined his hand, he saw that even the sword spirit had also disappeared.

    Ji Yuan tried to remind himself; this is an insight and may only be an illusion. Don''t be deceived by it. It is not real. But what is the meaning of this insight?

    Out of the blue, there was a burst of bright light and Ji Yuan was pulled back to reality and he was back to where he was standing earlier.

    "Big Brother? Are you alright? I try calling you many times but you didn''t respond me." Xiang Li sobbed sadly.

    "Erm, I am alright. I think that I may just have an insight¡­" All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw that the gigantic dark sword had disappeared and everyone was rising on their feet now.

    Xiang Li muttered. "You have been like this for an hour..."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "What? But it only looks like a minute had passed¡­"

    He was truly shocked.

    "What insight did you have?" Xiang Li asked him curiously.

    As Ji Yuan and Xiang Li were linked together, Ji Yuan quickly showed her the mental image that he had experienced before he was pulled by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi as they queried one another excitingly.

    "What did you experience?"

    "Did you manage to gain an insight?"

    "How does it go?"

    "Ji Yuan doesn''t seem to be interested¡­"

    "He is definitely not gaining any insight for sure so let''s ignore him¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I do have an insight¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly. "I don''t believe you."

    Then she turned to smile at the other maidens. "My sword spirit has picked up something this time around and I''ve gained an insight."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and sighed softly.

    Thest time that he had exined to Ling Feiyue that he had a spirit entity but she had not believed him because Xiang Li refused to show up. This time round, the same thing had happened because he was not even meditating.

    So what else could Ji Yuan do but to smile bitterly?

    Xiang Li was left to ponder about Ji Yuan''s insight. She was thinking; Diviner Mo Ming had said that the Great Hero will have a mark on both his hands?

    Suddenly the dark robe ferryman had appeared again and he wasughing eerily. "You have all passed the trial and you may proceed to im your rewards now."

    All of a sudden there were a two portals that had appeared in front of them; one green and one blue.

    "The green portal will lead you to a temporary stasis for the remainder of the trial. The blue portal will take you elsewhere."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan asked curiously. "Where is the trial? When did weplete the trial?"

    Many of the cultivators were echoing after Ji Yuan. "Yes. Where are the trials? Is this a test too?"

    But the dark robe ferryman grinned. "The dark sword is actually your trial."

    Everyone: ???

    However the dark robe ferryman did not exin as he disappeared.

    Feng Minyue had quietly approached Ji Yuan as she said. "It is my honor to party with you. I''m afraid that it is time for me to depart. This is actually my second sessful trial on this level and I will be leaving for the second level now."

    Mu Wan''Er had also approached Ji Yuan to say with a heavy heart. "This is actually my first sessful trial. I need toplete one more trial to go to the second level. Hopefully we can meet again soon."

    Ji Yuan was also breathing with a heavy heart as he looked at everyone. "I guess that it is time for us to separate now."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng all had a heavy heart as well. They were all lucky to meet on the first level but the second level will take randomly to the second level.

    There were literally dozens of worlds on the second level and it was difficult for them to encounter one another again. They were all together because of Xiang Li and not because they were lucky.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Farewell everyone. All the best to your trials."

    All the maidens were quietly looking away and were extremely quiet; it was because they had gotten used to party together.

    They had not expected that they would pass two sessful trials in such a short time and now they must departed for the second level.

    "Farewell¡­"

    "Good luck¡­"

    "This is a little too soon." Shui Xisi sighed as she looked at Ji Yuan with an equally heavy heart.

    "All the best to everyone''s trials¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he tried tofort them. "We will surely meet again real soon. Come, let''s go into the blue portal for our rewards."

    Reluctantly, everyone slowly nodded as they began to follow Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 226 The Awesome Reward Of This Trial, Or Is It Not?

    With a heavy heart, Ji Yuan walked toward the blue portal.

    He took onest look at Feng Minyue, Mu Wan''Er before he took a forlorn look at Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi.

    The nature of the trial itself forced all the cultivators to be separated again after each new level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    There was really nothing that Ji Yuan could do except for a mncholy sigh.

    He could feel the forlorn looks that were on Feiyue, Qianfeng, Little Princess and Sisi as they quietly followed after him.

    Even though they could follow him into the blue portal at the same time but they would not appear together on the second level.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was very vast and it was estimated that there may be as many as more than three hundred thousand golden celestials from all over the Celestial Realm that were taking part in the trials.

    Some had even estimated that there were a million golden celestials!

    The first level had thousands of worlds before scaling smaller in size for each level because many of the cultivators would be struck on the first two levels.

    Ji Yuan knew that it was impossible to meet them again so soon. If he wanted to meet them then they had to endure until the upper levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth where the number of worlds would dwindle down to just a few dozens.

    He could only pray silently in his heart for now.

    With onest look at all the maidens, Ji Yuan had entered the blue portal now; he had already said his farewells to everyone and it was pointless to linger anymore.

    He now found himself in a white room with a door in front.

    "Where am I?"

    In front of him were two tables and there seemed to be a mirror on the table.

    The voice of the earlier dark robe ferryman echoed. "This is your reward. You can only pick one of the mirrors."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I am a man. Why will I need a mirror for? And what is the purpose of these mirrors?"

    Theughter of the dark robe ferrymanughed. "These are the Mirrors of the Telepathy. You can only obtain them in this trial and you cannot obtain this elsewhere. Even in the Immortal Realm, the Mirrors of Telepathy is quite a rare profound treasure."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan began tough. "Then it means that I have the lucky urrence to find something so rare? Am I lucky or what? Quickly tell me, what are the uses of these two mirrors?"

    "The Mirrors of Telepathy will allow you to contact another cultivator briefly as long as they too possess another Mirror of Telepathy¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled and he had an excited look on his countenance. "Does this mean that I can contact Feiyue, Qianfeng, Little Princess and even Sisi even if we are not together? Awesome! Haha."

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was frowning. "Wait a minute. Did you just say that in order to use the Mirror of Telepathy, the contacted party must have another Mirror of Telepathy first?"

    "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Then this Mirror of Telepathy is of no use to me." Ji Yuan cursed softly.

    "It will be of use." The voice of the dark robe ferryman echoed in the white room. "Because everyone that has reached for the blue portal will receive the same exact reward."

    "Is it?" Ji Yuanughed. "Well, that is great. Even though my reward isn''t that rare but at least I canmunicate with my women daily with this Mirror of Telepathy."

    "You can only use it for free only once. If you want to use it again, you have to burn one million high grades spirit stones to use it again."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What?! Only one free use?" Ji Yuan was stunned. "And how long does themunicationsts?"

    "It depends on the distance. Usually it is ten minutes if you are outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "Ten minutes¡­this is way too short¡­"

    "If you use it inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, it willst less than three minutes."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "And this costs one million high grade spirit stones to recharge?!" Ji Yuan waspletely rendered speechless. "This is too ridiculous. Do you think that I am a rich cultivator? Are you expecting me to rob or steal to recharge this stupid mirror?!"

    But the dark robe ferryman refused to answer him.

    With a soft sigh, Ji Yuan approached the two tables and saw that the two Mirrors of Telepathy were nearly identical except for its size.

    "Huh? Are they different or what?" Ji Yuan muttered.

    He saw that one of the mirrors was handy enough to hold it in his palm while therger mirror was twice as big and it was difficult to hold.

    "They are identical in properties except for the size." The dark robe ferryman answered him.

    Ji Yuan was amused.

    He reached out for the smaller mirror naturally because he could hold it firmly in an emergency. Therger mirror was useless to him because he could carelessly break it in an emergency. So he was not too foolish to pick therger one.

    He was not exactly vain and he was sure that everyone else would also pick the smaller mirrors.

    This was a no brainer decision.

    Xiang Li was urging him inside his soul sea. "Big Brother, why don''t you pick the bigger mirror? It looks better!"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Bigger is not necessary better. This will do."

    "Bigger is not better?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    But Ji Yuan ignored her as he picked up the smaller mirror and he had opened the door of the white room.

    "Xiang Li, we are going to the next level now. Are you excited?" Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li said with a mncholy tone. "No. Because my sisters are all not around now."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "We will surely see them soon enough. Don''t worry."

    There was a sudden bright light and Ji Yuan soon found himself standing on a cliff and he was overlooking several beautiful mountain peaks and there were forests everywhere.

    Ji Yuan gasped softly at the beautiful sight.

    "Look Xiang Li. Isn''t it beautiful? It seems that we are on the second level now."<sub> </sub>

    But Xiang Li sobbed. "It isn''t fun anymore."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Big Brother, I''m so sad." Xiang Li continued to mutter almost inconsbly.

    Ji Yuan tried to cheer Xiang Li up so he shouted over his top. "We are going to chase the beautiful maidens of this level. With my women not around here to disturb us, we are going to bang all the beautiful skirts. Haha."

    But Xiang Li continued to be disinterested and she was sighing heavily.

    It really hurt Ji Yuan''s heart to hear her sorrowful sighs.

    Just as he was about tofort Xiang Li again, a beautiful voice said coldly. "Ji Yuan, what did you say just now?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly recognized the familiar voice; it was Feiyue!

    He quickly looked up and saw a white skirt beautiful maiden standing more than three hundred yards above him. She was indeed Ling Feiyue!

    "Feiyue, it is really you?! Haha." Ji Yuan was overjoyed to see Ling Feiyue again.

    Xiang Li was now pping her hands. "Sister Feiyue is really here! Woah, Xiang Li is so happy!"

    The reason why Ji Yuan did not detect Ling Feiyue was because she was standing more than 300 yards away and beyond his divine sense to detect.

    Just as he was about to leap to Feiyue, he heard several cold coughs around him.

    With an astonished look, he was startled to see Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and even Feng Minyue appearing all around him; everyone was more than three hundred yards apart around the cliffs and they all had an astonished look.

    They had all met again so soon!

    Ji Yuan turned to ask Xiang Li. "Um, you didn''t do anything, am I right?"

    Xiang Liughed as she was too happy to see them again. "Of course not. Now Xiang Li is happy again."

    Ji Yuan inspected Xiang Li and saw that she did not be younger.

    He was secretly relieved but at the same time, he was thinking. "Xiang Li''s powers are too OP¡­don''t tell me it has asting effect?"

    All the maidens had gathered around Ji Yuan, including Feng Minyue.

    "Um, we have all met again?"

    Feng Minyue muttered with a perplexed look. "What is going on? Are we really on the second level now?"

    Shui Xisi took a look around and said. "We are indeed on the second level. The spiritual force here is much stronger. If we are on the first level then the spiritual aura won''t be this strong."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she agreed.

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he saw Feng Minyue again.

    He muttered in his soul sea to Xiang Li. "Erm, howe Maiden Feng Minyue is here?"

    Xiang Li chuckled with great delight. "That is because she likes you! That''s why!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Don''t talk rubbish¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was interrupted by many kicks and ps as all the maidens except for Feng Minyue began to question him. "Ji Yuan! My lord! What did you say earlier? You''re going to go after all the beautiful maidens on this level?!"

    Crap! Ji Yuan was stunned. He had forgotten about this; he was only trying to cheer Xiang Li¡­

    Xiang Li¡­you have screwed me up this time¡­

    "Wait, wait! Hear me out first!" Ji Yuan began to protest weakly. "I know that you''re all in the vicinity so I am just trying to lure all of you out. And it works!"

    "Is it true?"

    "Don''t believe him¡­"

    "He is lying¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course it is true. If I do not know that you are nearby, will I have the courage to shout like this? It is only a prank! A tease! A joke! Haha."

    "Really?!"

    "Did we really wrong Ji Yuan?"

    "I think so¡­"

    "He doesn''t have the guts¡­"

    "So it is only a joke?" Shui Xisi asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed as he quickly tried to change the topic by taking out the Mirror of Telepathy. "This is my trial reward. What about everyone else?"

    All the maidens, including Feng Minyue began to take out their Mirror of Telepathy.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed something that rendered him speechless; all the maidens had taken the bigger Mirror of Telepathy¡­

    What the heck¡­

    Then he noticed that Qianfeng and Sisi were smiling as they viewed themselves with the mirrors and they were quickly followed by the rest. Even Feng Minyue was no exception.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled. "Big Brother, why are they all taking the bigger mirrors? Didn''t you say that big isn''t better?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 227 Feng Minyue

    The four maidens; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were all kicking and pping Ji Yuan as they chuckled together. They were really happy to see Ji Yuan again in such a short time again and their depressions had suddenly been lifted.

    Ji Yuan was perplexed as he frowned. Howe they seemed to be hitting me so hard?

    Indeed they were because none of them believed Ji Yuan when he told them that he was only teasing them about banging the beautiful maidens on this level.

    Although they were not as smart as Jiajia, Qianxue or Yan''Er but they were all top cultivators. They just knew that Ji Yuan was covering himself up and they were just pretending to go along with him.

    And also, they were too happy to see him and so they had taken an opportunity to hit him hard so that he could remember them.

    Even Qianfeng was no exception. When she saw that Xisi had pinched Ji Yuan so hard that his countenance had changed, she too, began to follow after her by pinching Ji Yuan hard.

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly and looking quite sheepish but as a man, he would not allow himself to cry out in pain. So he had endured their ''happiness'' attacks.

    Feng Minyue was looking at them curiously before she could not resist the urge to ask. "How did we end up in the same ce?"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Well¡­"

    "Well, maybe we have found a secret trial in this ce that requires us to co-operate with one another." Shui Xisiughed as she took Feng Minyue''s hands. "Since I know Sister Yuqing so well and you''re in her group, why don''t you join us for the time being?"

    As she turned around and out of sight from Feng Minyue, she stole a wink at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw her wink and he quicklyughed. "That is right. Maybe it is really a new secret trial. It is best that we travel together to meet this new challenge together. Haha."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng rolled their eyes and smiled weakly.

    But Ling Feiyue knew that Feng Minyue is a peaked great saintess by now and she also knew that Feng Minyue had an enticing charisma that could make men look mesmerizing in her direction and that Ji Yuan was no exception to her charms.

    Therefore sheughed softly. "If Maiden Feng does not mind to be in ourpany then we can travel together. After all, we are not as familiar as the trials as you."

    Little Princess took a look at Ling Feiyue as though she was saying; she will be our rival and she is close to the Shui Xisi. Are you sure about this?

    Ling Feiyue returned a light nod while Bai Qianfeng was smiling. "Wee to our party."

    Qianfeng actually had no objections because the immortals often had multiple partners and the weak will often gather around the strong. When powerful cultivators like Feng Minyue are around Ji Yuan, she will feel assure that her man is the correct choice for her.

    Qianfeng only respects the strong because she is an immortal and her sense of equality is different from the others.

    As for Feng Minyue, for the very first time she was confused and she did not know what to make of her new situation.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said. "Yea, follow us. You will be safe with us and we do need senior advice to ovee the trial here too."

    Feng Minyue replied. "There is no need to address me as your senior. You are also a peaked great saint¡­"

    Then with a light nod, she added with a strange look on him. "Alright, I will join your party for now." Somehow there was a strongpelling urge that seemed to persuade her to agree to join his party.

    Ji Yuan seemed to have a charismaticpelling voice and she could not resist saying no.

    But she quickly added. "I have my own party here. I will have to join them once I can find them."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course, of course. I am best friend with Fan Yuqing and Lu Qingyun too. Haha."

    Feng Minyue had a sudden mesmerizing soft chuckle. "I don''t believe."

    Ji Yuan frowned with an anxious look. "You don''t believe? Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing had given me a sixth rank divine pill. If we are not best friends, will they have given me a sixth rank divine pill?"

    Feng Minyue said with an amused smile. "Maybe for Lu Qingyun but Sister Saintess Yuqing is different. She is a horrible spendthrift and she doesn''t know the worth of many things. Also she doesn''t make friends easily and she has few friends."

    Then she took a look at Shui Xisi. "And I doubt that you are really close to her."

    Shui Xisi had a soft chuckle as she gave a sheepish look. It was true that she was not really close to Fan Yuqing at all and she was only trying to im a ''rtionship'' with her. Fan Yuqing was actually closer to her Sister Feifei (Jiajia) than her.

    It was because her Sister Feifei''s intellectual could at least tame Fan Yuqing''s temperament while she was helpless in front of Fan Yuqing. She still remembered that Fan Yuqing had almost bankrupted her Water Melody Pce on herst visit when she had promised her that she could make several fifth and sixth rank divine profound pills.<sub> </sub>

    "Trust me! I am a sixth rank master alchemist!" she had assured her.

    In the end, none of the profound pills had works and she had be a guinea pig for Fan Yuqing''s alchemist practice.

    Fan Yuqingughed it off. "You know there is always a seventy percent failure even if you are a master alchemist. Or else fifth and sixth rank profound pills will be everywhere. Trust me and give me all your profound nts. This time round, I will surely seed."

    She had trusted Fan Yuqing and in the end, it had failed again¡­

    It was more like a nine-five percent failure¡­

    Shui Xisi could not resist adding with a not so amused look. "She is also a high level master alchemist as well."

    Feng Minyueughed softly. "You sound like a victim already."

    "I am." Shui Xisi groaned. "So is she a master alchemist or not?"

    Feng Minyue rolled her eyes. "Sometimes she is, sometimes she is not. It depends on her mood."

    "Her mood?!" Shui Xisi eximed unhappily. "What does her mood have to do with her alchemist skills?"

    "When she is in a happy mood, it is likely that she will screw up the profound pills that she is making." Feng Minyue smiled.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Isn''t that the opposite?"

    When someone is a good mood, they are more alert and tend to make few mistakes.

    Feng Minyue shook her head. "Not with Fan Yuqing. The happier she is, the more disastrous it will be."

    Shui Xisi was groaning immediately. She had suddenly remembered that Fan Yuqing had been in a jovial mood and she looked so confident. That was why she had trusted this half-sister of hers with all of her spiritual herbs and she had ended up losing all her precious spiritual herbs.

    "And by the way, she is only a third rank alchemist and not a sixth rank master alchemist. But she loves to proim herself as a sixth rank master alchemist." Feng Minyue smiled.

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi felt like banging her head on the cliff. She had trusted a third rank alchemist to make her fifth and sixth rank profound pills!

    "This¡­this¡­" she was totally speechless. "But she looks like a high level master alchemist¡­"

    She had observed Fan Yuqing throughout the alchemist process and she was sure that Fan Yuqing was not faking.

    Feng Minyue smiled weakly. "Sister Saintess Yuqing knows all the theories but she doesn''t know where she is wrong. It is Lu Qingyun that has been secretly helping her with her concoctions. He is the real master alchemist even though Sister Saintess Yuqing is always insisting that Lu Qingyun is stealing his knowledge from her."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "She should give up on her alchemist. She sucks at it¡­"

    Feng Minyue smiled weakly. "She won''t. This is a most expensive hobby from her and I had tried to persuade her to give it up many times in the past. But she always says, practice makes perfect."

    Shui Xisi muttered. "I have be her guinea pig to be better. She had even blown up my ce several times¡­"

    Feng Minyue nodded. "She really enjoys the sounds of explosions. So this won''t deter her at all."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She had suddenly remembered that Fan Yuqing seemed to be in a more jovial mood when an explosion had urred and was even more excited than before.

    No matter how powerful the explosion was, it would not hurt Fan Yuqing because she was stronger than any peaked great saintesses because she was a half-goddess¡­

    Ji Yuan was half-amused to hear that Shui Xisi had been scammed by her half-sister and he was enjoying the look that was on her now.

 Chapter 228 Hunting A Seventh Rank Profound Beast (1)

    Ji Yuan and his party had taken three days of rest before they set off again.

    By the end of three days, Ji Yuan was refreshed again. The spiritual aura on the second level is much stronger than the first level and this sped up his profound strength recovery.

    At the end of three days, he had startled to know Feng Minyue a little better; he had learnt that Feng Minyue was actually in charge of Fan Yuqing''s finances and is her best friend. He had also learnt that she used to be a sect leader of one of the nine leading patriarch ns in the Nine Celestial Fraternity as well.

    When they were about to set off again, Shui Xisi said to Feng Minyue. "Ji Yuan will scout ahead of us. As you know, this ce is vast and we may waste our time to search endlessly everywhere. If there is a false trail then Ji Yuan will double back."

    Feng Minyue asked curiously. "He is the scout? Isn''t he the leader?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she pulled Feng Minyue to one side as she whispered. "It is the job of the party leader to ensure that the party is safe. So the leader is also the scout."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not deaf. I can hear you even if you whisper¡­

    Little Princessughed too as she whispered to Feng Minyue. "Good sister, now that you''ve joined our party, you don''t have to worry about anything else. Just let the only man in the party do the job."

    Feng Minyue asked. "Is it really alright? Shouldn''t we help as well?"

    "He will do fine, don''t worry." Little Princessughed.

    Ji Yuan muttered silently; I can also hear you alright.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled coolly. "My lord Ji Yuan will surely do fine. If you don''t believe, you can ask him directly. Right, Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before heughed with great gusto. "Of course I am alright. It is the party leader''s job."

    And he had leapt ahead of the party as he waved back. "I love to scout anyway."

    But silently, he was cursing. Screw it. I hate to scout.

    But whether Ji Yuan likes to scout or not, he would volunteer to scout. It was because he was protecting his women and he knew it.

    He was d to be a scout for them. The only unhappiness he felt was that he knew that they were trying to lure him away so that they could gossip about him.

    Feng Minyue muttered. "Ji Yuan is really a gentleman¡­"

    Ji Yuan really had sharp hearing and when he had heard Feng Minyue, he began tough heartily as he continued his scouting mission with great enthusiastic.

    "Haha, no problem! Count on me!"

    After Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi saw that Ji Yuan had disappeared on top of the cliffs, they began to say to Feng Minyue. "Now we can really chat freely¡­"

    Feng Minyue asked curiously. "Chat?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly. "Yes, like what kind of a beauty products are you using?"

    Little Princess nodded. "Yes and what are your secrets?"

    Shui Xisiughed. "Do the maidens that are in the Nine Celestial Fraternity apply their makeup differently?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled. "You don''t mind sharing with us your beauty secrets, do you?"

    Feng Minyue shook her head as she answered. "Of course not¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she took out a box. "I have some immortal powder that can enhance our beauty here¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan was far away, he began to shake his head as he wondered; I just don''t understand why they have so many things to chitchat about? I wish I can turn myself into a woman sometimes so that I can listen in¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan spotted a cultivator below the cliff and he was looking around cautiously.

    There is someone here?

    He was obviously not from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuanughed as hended lightly in front of him. "Hey, you. What are you doing here?"

    The cultivator was startled by Ji Yuan as he quickly unsheathed his sword. "Who are you?"

    "And who are you?" Ji Yuan asked.

    Upon seeing that Ji Yuan had no weapons in his hands, the startled cultivator began to rx. "I am Zhang Liao. I am looking for the presence of deste monsters. And you are?"

    Ji Yuan answered with an amused look. "I''m Ji Yuan. I am looking for the trial entrance. But why are you searching for the deste monsters? You should be searching for the trial entrance instead."

    Zhang Liao smiled. "I am a monster hunter. So I am looking around for powerful deste monsters to hunt."

    "You mean you are a trophy hunter." Ji Yuan muttered.

    "I''m a monster hunter." Zhang Liao returned a frown too.

    "That is precisely a trophy hunter." Ji Yuan insisted.

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    "You''re being unreasonable." Zhang Liao had suddenly pointed his sword at him as he raised his voice to say. "I''m a sixth realm golden celestial. If you''re wise enough, you should beat a hasty retreat now."

    Ji Yuanughed. "And I''m a seventh realm golden saint! Haha."

    Zhang Liao shed his sword andughed. "You are a saint? Haha. What a joke. Why don''t you take a look into the mirror first?"

    He noted that Ji Yuan did not react even when he had pointed his sword at his neck. Therefore he knew that Ji Yuan''s reaction was slower than him and even his cultivation realm level may be beneath him.

    Therefore he was quite amused by Ji Yuan as he sighed softly. "You know that I am an orthodox cultivator and I won''t bully you. If it is the others then you may not be so lucky with your insolent remarks¡­"

    All of a sudden he had paused halfway when he saw that Ji Yuan had taken out a mirror and was looking at himself while muttering. "I don''t look like a saint?"

    Zhang Liao was even more amused. "One day you will be a saint. There is no shortcut to cultivations. You need to work harder to attain that goal and not by iming that you''re a saint."

    "But I''m a saint." Ji Yuan frowned.

    "Whatever." Zhang Liao smiled weakly.<sub> </sub>

    Actually the reason why Ji Yuan did not evade Zhang Liao''s sword was because he could sense no killing instinct and he could evade his attack if he wanted to.

    Ji Yuan''s reaction was many times faster than a typical cultivator, especially after he had mastered the third stage of the Divine Heart Recite, which was the Natural Instinct.

    If Zhang Liao had moved an inch more, then Ji Yuan would immediately react with his sword fingers to interrupt the attack; he was so quick that he could perform two actions simultaneous, interrupting with his sword fingers and taking out his divine sword from his spatial ring in the next instant.

    Zhang Liao said. "You''re from the Deste Celestial Fraternity, am I right?"

    "Right. And where are you from?" Ji Yuan asked. He could not resist adding. "How did you know?"

    Zhang Liaoughed. "The Deste Celestial Fraternity and the Nine Celestial Fraternity are two of the biggest celestial fraternities around. So it is not too difficult to identify them by their dressing. They are everywhere. As for me, I havee from the Eastern Isle Celestial Fraternity."

    "I''ve never heard of it before." Ji Yuan muttered.

    Zhang Liao was not offended. "It is one of the smallest celestial fraternities in the Celestial Realm. Naturally you may not have heard of my celestial fraternity before."

    Then he added with augh. "I am a monster hunter. In the Eastern Isle Celestial Fraternity, this is one of the most exalted celestial positions."

    "Well, in the Deste Celestial Fraternity I am a Sword Saint and it is also one of the most exalted positions in my celestial fraternity." Ji Yuanughed. "So I guess that we are two extraordinary men here."

    Zhang Liao smiled bitterly as he looked at Ji Yuan. This guy is too shameless. He is just full of hot air. Everyone will be trying to be as low profile as possible and yet he is trying to bolster his strength in front of a superior cultivator.

    He could not resist adding. "I have heard a Sword Saint usually have a sword spirit. Do you have one?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course I have one. But brother cultivator, not all sword saints have a sword spirit. It is too difficult to obtain. Haha."

    Zhang Liao thought; obviously he doesn''t have one. Why don''t you show me your sword spirit first?

    "What about you? Do you have a sword spirit or a spirit entity?" Ji Yuan asked him curiously.

    Zhang Liao grinned. "Heh. I don''t mind telling you this but I have a seventh rank profound spirit entity."

    Ji Yuan gasped. "That is pretty impressive¡­"

    Zhang Liao wasughing silently. Of course it is impressive. It isn''t that easy to kill a seventh rank profound deste beast and it is even harder to obtain its artefact core. In the entire Celestial Realm, I am definitely among the top 100 cultivator to do so."

    "But I do know someone who has a seventh rank epic deste beast as spirit entity. Even though I have never seen her using it before but I''m sure that it is more impressive than yours." Ji Yuan added with a chuckle.

    He had suddenly remembered that his Qianfeng had sessfully obtained an epic artefact core. Although he have never seen her using her newly refined artefact core before but he knows that it will surely be impressive. After all Qianfeng is an immortal cultivator and she must be keeping it as her trump card.

    Zhang Liao almost wanted to vomit blood. This guy is definitely full of hot air. He has never seen his friend''s spirit entity before then how the heck did he know that his friend has got a seventh rank epic artefact core?!

    Zhang Liao began to stroke his mustache before he said. "Fellow Cultivator Ji Yuan, you need to restrain yourself in your speech and cultivate your soul. Then you will be able to advance yourself in your cultivation realm in the future."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. Don''t worry about me. Did I forget to mention that I am a peaked great saint already? Hoho. Therefore there is no need for me to cultivate anymore."

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    This guy ispletely hopeless¡­

    Seventh rank peaked saint, my foot!

    If he is a peaked great saint, does he even need to risk himself by entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?!

    Usually a peaked great saint has the backing of an influential powerhouse and there are no need for them to risk their lives.

    Am I talking to a fool from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?

    Zhang Liao hummed softly as he was beginning to lose his patience with Ji Yuan. "How about this then? I happen to know where one of the trials is for this level. It is pretty dangerous and that is why I am not going there yet until I have fully prepared myself. However there is a trade-off here. You will need to help me to kill a seventh rank deste beast that I am hunting right now."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin. "This isn''t a bad deal. A seventh rank deste beast is pretty dangerous and is even dangerous for a saint, let alone a sixth realm cultivator like you."

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    Of course it is dangerous for a ''saint'' like you. I have more experience than you, you dumbass! Or are you chickening out now?

    But he forced a smile to say. "Even saints can get killed by a seventh rank deste beast. This is a seventh rank profound beast that I''m talking about. Well, do you have the guts to follow me?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course I have the guts. Do you know that you have found the right cultivator to help you? You can dependpletely on me to be your best support. Haha."

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    As long as you don''t screw it up, I can at least assure that you will not die. But if you want to be a hero then you will surely be a dead hero. Then when that happens, don''t me me for not warning you enough.

    He could not resist adding. "Don''t say that I didn''t warn you. It will be pretty dangerous. I''ve been tracking this beast for two days now and had even engaged in several bitter fights with it."

    Ji Yuanughed. "What is so dangerous about a single seventh rank profound deste beast? With your seventh rank profound spirit entity and my sword spirit, we can surely kill it with ease."

    Zhang Liao smiled weakly. This guy is just trying to hook me up by making use of me.

    So he said solemnly to Ji Yuan. "We are only forming a temporary party. I hope that you don''t follow me after we have hunted down this seventh rank profound beast."

    Ji Yuan shook his head as heughed. "I wish I can but I can''t. I have a party of five most beautiful maidens waiting for me. Haha."

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    This guy really knows how to boast¡­

    If he really has a party of five beautiful maidens then why is he alone?!

    Zhang Liao sighed as he said to Ji Yuan. "Come with me."

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Do you need my help to find this seventh rank profound beast?"

    Zhang Liao frowned. "No¡­"

    "You''re going the wrong way." Ji Yuan said as he pointed over the cliff. "The deste beast that you are hunting seems to have climbed over this cliff here." His sharp eagle eyes had spotted the familiar marks that Zhang Liao was tracking to the cliffs. With just a look, he had already confirmed what Zhang Liao was looking for.

    Zhang Liao frowned as he double checked the tracks before he had ascertained that Ji Yuan was actually correct.

    He muttered silently; it must be just a lucky guess¡­

    Zhang Liao naturally did not know that Ji Yuan was also quite a monster hunter himself while he was at the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Also Ji Yuan''s eyesight and sense of smell are sharper than most of the other cultivators as well. Tracking down a deste beast was like second nature to him and he did not even need to think about it.

 Chapter 229 Hunting A Seventh Rank Profound Beast (2)

    After two days of searching, Ji Yuan and Zhang Liao had spotted the seventh rank profound beast.

    Now this seventh rank profound beast was bigger than any seventh rank profound beast that Ji Yuan had ever seen.

    The name of this seventh rank profound beast is the King ck Razor; it is a seventh rank profound beast that has a reptilian head and eight razor limbs. It is considered to be one of the most dangerous deste beasts to encounter and most cultivators would rather flee from it than to fight it.

    Zhang Liao inhaled softly as he whispered to Ji Yuan under the cover of the tall cliffs. "Listen up. This is no joke. If we want to survive this fight then we have to co-ordinate well. I will need your help to distract it while I am preparing for my most powerful strike."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I will distract it?"

    Zhang Liao said solemnly. "Of course it will be you. My seventh rank profound spirit entity will temporary triple my profound power for a single strike¡­"

    Ji Yuan gasped. "Triple your profound power? This is insane¡­"

    Zhang Liao frowned. "Don''t interrupt. Even though I can triple my profound power but I can only use it only once and I will exhaust almost all my profound strength. Therefore I have only one chance to kill it. If I fail to then we will all be dead. Got it?"

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded. "Um. Got it. So what do you want me to do?"

    Zhang Liao took a look around at the surrounding cliffs before he said. "Lure it to that cliff over there. I will leap from behind it and attack it from behind its blind spot."

    Ji Yuan nodded. "That sounds like a good backup n. Very well then I will attack it first."

    Zhang Liao frowned. "What do you mean by it? I ask you to lure it and not to attack it. Listen up, I am serious. Do not approach within one hundred yards of that monster. It will be able to outrun you and it can even climb up the cliffs with equal ease. As soon as it catches sight of you, quickly run. Don''t even think of engaging it!"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly. "Although this monster is highly mobile but it does have its own weak points¡­"

    "Who is the real monster hunter here and who is the support?" Zhang Liao frowned.

    "Um, you''re and I am the support." Ji Yuanughed. "But we should be a little flexible¡­"

    "Then just go and do your job now." Zhang Liao said unhappily as he lifted his sword at Ji Yuan in a threatening manner.

    Ji Yuanughed as he easily stepped aside from the threatening sword that was pointed at him. "Alright, alright."

    Then he quickly leapt down the cliff as he sprang silently toward the King ck Razor.

    Zhang Liao was quite astonished that Ji Yuan was quite quick with his movements and he was a little awed by it.

    He could not resist a soft mutter. "Well, he is going to need his quick movements to escapeter¡­"

    As he was about to get into his ambush position, he was startled that Ji Yuan had already sprang all the way to within one hundred yards of the King ck Razor!

    Zhang Liao was startled as he cursed him. "He is crazy! I told him not to engage the monster. This bravado will cost him his life¡­"

    All of a sudden he was startled further when he saw that Ji Yuan had suddenly unsheathed an immortal-step divine sword!

    "What the heck?! He has an immortal-step divine sword¡­"

    But before he could even get over his initial surprise, he was even startled to see that there were a double halos around the immortal-step divine sword.

    "What?! He has a perfect divine harmony with his divine sword¡­"

    All of a sudden Zhang Liao had dropped his precious sword on the ground as his divine sense had alerted him to a powerful profound animus of a peaked great saint that was radiating from Ji Yuan.

    "He is¡­really a peaked great saint?! This is impossible¡­"

    As he blinked his eyes in Ji Yuan''s direction, Ji Yuan had executed a Moonlight Cut, followed by a Cross sh and the King ck Razor waspletely dismembered by Ji Yuan.

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    He was speechless. He had never seen any saint killing a seventh rank profound beast with the same ease as Ji Yuan.

    "The King ck Razor had missed himpletely?!"

    He had seen all eight limbs of the King ck Razor moved like lightning against Ji Yuan when he was attacking it but somehow Ji Yuan seemed to have evaded the attacks.

    It seemed that Ji Yuan was swifter than the King ck Razor because he did not even seem to have evaded at all¡­

    Zhang Liao was stunned. He had never seen anyone that could fight in this manner like Ji Yuan before.

    All of a sudden there was a soft glow of light that had emerged from the dead corpse of the King ck Razor; it was a rare profound artefact core!

    Zhang Liao was stunned. Only one out of every 1000 seventh rank profound deste beasts would drop an artefact core and it was an extremely rare drop. But this Ji Yuan was so lucky to have dropped one so quickly¡­

    But Ji Yuan seemed to have ignored the artefact core and allowed it to disappear.

    This startled Zhang Liao.

    An artefact core can onlyst for a short while before it disappears. Therefore the cultivator must quickly seize on the opportunity to obtain it or it will be lost forever.

    By now Zhang Liao had quietly approached Ji Yuan with an uneasy and perplexed look; who is this Ji Yuan and what is his background?

    But he forced himself to smile. "Why didn''t you take its artefact core to use as your spirit entity?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he rubbed his chin. "I already have a spirit entity so I don''t need one more."

    Zhang Liao gasped with astonishment. "You have a spirit entity that is stronger than a seventh rank profound artefact core?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed. "Not really. My spirit entity is kinda of useless inbat. Haha."

    Xiang Li chuckled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "That''s right! I ampletely useless!" She was quite proud of her uselessness as she proimed loudly to Ji Yuan.

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    "Then why don''t you take the artefact core?"

    Ji Yuan smiled with a burning look. "I don''t need any artefact core to refine into my sprit entity. Because no spirit entity will be able to rece my current spirit entity. She is precious in my heart and is irreceable. So I don''t need one more. Even a ninth rank epic artefact core cannot rece my spirit entity."

    Xiang Li who could sense Ji Yuan''s emotions was extremely touched as she muttered softly. "Big Brother¡­"

    Zhang Liao waspletely speechless that Ji Yuan would rather have one useless spirit entity than a powerful spirit entity.

    Ji Yuanughed as he asked Zhang Liao. "So you can tell me where the trial entrance is now?"

    Zhang Liao muttered. "Oh well I can now¡­"

    "My lord! I''ve finally found you!" A beautiful voice had interrupted Zhang Liao and forcing him to turn around to look in the direction of the beautiful voice.

    A most stunning maiden with long silver hair had suddenly appeared over the horizon and in a blink of a blink she had shed into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    It was Bai Qianfeng!

    "Qianfeng, why are you?" Ji Yuan was astonished.

    Zhang Liao was even more astonished because this maiden was really peerless whether it was her looks or in her mannerism. In fact, he had thought of her as the most peerless maiden that he had ever seen in his entire life!

    He gulped with his dry throat as he watched the sensual body of this silver hair maiden as she cuddled in Ji Yuan''s embrace and he gasped silently when he saw that Ji Yuan was actually caressing her butt¡­

    He could not believe what he was seeing and saw that Ji Yuan was actually caressing this goddess right now and they seemed to be so intimated together¡­

    "My lord, where have you been?" Qianfeng gasped as she looked at Ji Yuan with heartfelt emotions.

    "Erm¡­I was scouting to find a trial, remember?" Ji Yuanughed.

    "You have been missing for two days and we are a little anxious. We tried reaching you with the Mirror of Telepathy but you seem to have kept it in your spatial space." Qianfeng said mncholy.

    "I was tracking a deste monster and it has taken me some time. Erm, where are the others?" Ji Yuan grinned.

    Qianfeng smiled as she looked lovingly at Ji Yuan. "They are just behind me. We have split up to look for you."

    Then she took out the Mirror of Telepathy and activated it. "I''ve found Ji Yuan. He is now with me. Pleasee west of where we have parted."

    There was a dark look on Ji Yuan''s countenance as he muttered. "That is one million high grade spirit stones for less than a minute ofmunication. And I pretty sure that they are not far either." He felt like banging his head on the ground now.

    Zhang Liao smiled awkwardly as he said to Bai Qianfeng. "I''m Zhao Liao from the Eastern Isle Celestial Fraternity. I wonder how do I address this beautiful maiden here?"

    Qianfeng smiled, "I am the Evil Witch of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Do you still want to know me?"

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    "Maiden, you really like to joke¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Indeed she is only joking. She is Qianfeng, my consort."

    Zhang Liao was stunned. "She is your consort?!"

    This Ji Yuan is too lucky!

    All of a sudden there were several shouts from the cliffs above and four more stunning maidens had also appeared above.

    "There they are!"

    "Ji Yuan is there!"

    These four maidens were none other than Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue.

    Zhang Liao was stunned that there were four more stunning maidens that had appeared.

    All of a sudden he had realized that Ji Yuan did not lie to him that he had five beautiful maidens with him in a party.

    Zhang Liaoughed as he said awkwardly. "Actually Brother Ji Yuan¡­" He had changed his address of Fellow Cultivator Ji Yuan to Brother Ji Yuan now. "If you don''t mind, you can always join my party¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly looked at him with a solemn grin. "Actually I''ve my own party and you should be on your own too. But before that, I believe that you owe me the direction of the trial location. Am I right to say so?"

    Zhang Liao was startled by the sudden change in Ji Yuan''s expressions. All of a sudden it seemed that Ji Yuan had lost his friendly amicable aura.

    Ji Yuan was staring at Zhang Liao as though he was trying to say; no one shall green me!

    Xiang Li was shouting wildly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea out of hearing reach of everyone. "I don''t want a man in the party. GO AWAY!"

    Zhang Liao could only awkwardly said. "Yes, yes."

 Chapter 230 The First Trial Of The Second Level (1)

    Ji Yuan and his party had found the trial entrance exactly as Zhao Liao had said; it was at a location hundred miles north of where Ji Yuan had killed the seventh rank profound beast and was at the bottom of a hidden valley and was too easy to miss it. However as there were too many cultivators nearby, it was actually easy to follow everyone into the hidden valley.

    Hundreds of cultivators were already at the trial entrance and they were all staring at a red portal and several yellow portals that were in the ce.

    Zhang Liao was looking quite sheepish and was quite exhausted.

    He had actually followed Ji Yuan to this ce after persuading him that he would be a good guide to lead him to this ce.

    "Now that this deste beast is killed, I can go to the trial with you now¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "But we are not going to party you when we are there. OK?"

    Zhang Liao: ¡­

    "Alright¡­"

    But he had never expected that Ji Yuan and his party were all high level cultivation experts and that it took them merely three hours to travel a hundred miles, leaving himpletely exhausted as he tried to catch up with them.

    As a matter of fact, he did not remember when was thest time that he had forced himself to run so fast.

    But the worst wound to his bruised ego was that all five maidens did not bother to take a second nce at him and they were all looking at Ji Yuan for leadership.

    Several cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had turned ashen when they saw that it was Ji Yuan who was approaching the trial entrance.

    Before Ji Yuan could greet them, these cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had quickly exited the ce.

    "This trial is too difficult. Let''s go elsewhere¡­"

    Ji Yuan knew that they were afraid of him by now and that they may be here to kill him.

    However there were also many cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity that had no animosity with him and they were greeting him. "Great Hero Ji Yuan. You are here¡­"

    Zhang Liao was startled. "Great Hero?!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he greeted everyone. "Haha. Please continue with your trial. I am just taking the same trial as everyone here."

    The hundreds of cultivators in the ce were all looking into Ji Yuan''s direction and were all wondering who he was.

    Although this may be the second level and the number of worlds had quickly dwindled from thousands to several hundreds, it was still difficult to meet a familiar face. But all of a sudden they had noticed that most of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity were all greeting this handsome man without a beard that had an impish grin.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue were all donning a curtain veil but their astonishing appearances could not escape notice.

    Many of the cultivators were asking Ji Yuan curiously. "Is Dark Mistress Ling with you?"

    They were all looking for Ling Feiyue who was always in her signature dark robe. Her dark robe is actually a profound treasure and it makes her easy to be identified.

    However Feiyue was wearing an outer white robe to conceal her dark robe so it was hard to identify her in the group of five stately maidens.

    And moreover all five maidens did not approach the rest of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    As Feng Minyue was wearing the robe style of the Nine Celestial Fraternity, many of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity ruled her out as Ling Feiyue as they secretly made a guess that Ling Feiyue may be among one of the four maidens instead of one of the five maidens.

    However there were many cultivators that also concluded that Ji Yuan was a flirter and he may have picked up these maidens from the trials. After all, it was mathematically impossible for Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan to meet in the same ce so soon.

    After Ji Yuan had packed the cultivators away, he quickly approached the ck stele near the red portal.

    Zhang Liao who was behind Ji Yuan said. "This trial is one of the most difficult trials that I''ve ever taken. Cultivation realms got nothing to do with oveing this trial."

    Ji Yuan was frowning and at the same time the five maidens had also touched the ck stele.

    The red portal was actually the real trial entrance. But in order to enter this red portal sessful, the cultivator had to guess how many celestial fraternities were in the Celestial Realm.

    Everyone got only one chance to answer this question correctly or else they would be taken elsewhere to other worlds and this trial would fail automatically.

    The yellow portals were areas where the cultivators could enter to look for clues. There were altogether 6 yellow portals and a secret number was hidden inside the areas of the yellow portal. Bybining the numbers of the yellow portals, they would have their answers.

    Zhang Liao saw Ji Yuan''s expressions and he was grinning now. "Brother Ji Yuan, I told you so. This trial is a little tough and it may take us months to solve the riddle of this trial."

    Indeed Ji Yuan was frowning and he saw that there were many cultivators that were resting from their injuries. They must have met with some dangers as they entered the yellow portals.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly to her group. "This trial is indeed tough to answer. We may have to explore all the yellow portals one by one. Maybe we should go elsewhere as this trial may be too time consuming."

    Ji Yuanughed. "I have an idea."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan said solemnly. "I have an idea to enter the red portal and I will require the aid of all the cultivators in this ce."

    The echo of Ji Yuan''s voice reached to the ears of the hundreds of cultivators of in this small valley as everyone started to look into his direction?

    "Is he boasting or what?"

    "He knows the answers?"

    "He has merely just arrived into this ce."

    "Do you believe him?"

    "Let''s hear him out first¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he turned to say to everyone. "It is quite easy and in no time we can easily enter the red portal together."

    Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Qianfeng and Feiyue were all curiously looking at Ji Yuan.

    Even Zhang Liao was startled. He knows the answer to the trial question?

    Many of the cultivators were looking at Ji Yuan curiously and they were shouting. "So what is your idea?"

    Shui Xisi was giggling. "I wonder what his smart idea is."

    Feng Minyue took a subtle look at Shui Xisi. If she was not wrong, Shui Xisi actually knows the answer to this one.

    Shui Xisi was also quietly looking at Feng Minyue and she could guess that Feng Minyue also knows the answer to this trial question since she is best friend with Fan Yuqing.

    Ji Yuan had a smile on his countenance as he said confidently. "Easy. We shall have all the cultivators that have found the answers so far to write the number in front of the yellow portals. In this manner, we can save our time and at the same time we can all enter the red portal without any injuries."

    All of the cultivators were all roaring withughter now and they were shaking their heads.

    They were allpetitors, so how would they aid one another?

    Some of them had even used their lives to pay for the answers so how could they share their secret number so easily?

    "Hey you there." A cultivator mocked at Ji Yuan. "You''re too na?ve. Do you really think that we will share our answers with you? You have juste and do you really think that you can take advantage of us by ying your wits around us?"

    Many of the cultivators wereughing. "That''s right!"

    "No way!"

    "So we are going to give our hard earn answers to this new upstart here?"

    "Fat hope!"

    Zhang Liao was also smiling bitterly. "Brother Ji Yuan, this is not going to work."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was frowning. "We should have a little trust with one another¡­"

    But his voice was quickly drowned out by hundreds of loudughter.

    "He may be a beautiful face but he is also a fool!" A female cultivator giggled to her group.

    "He is too na?ve¡­"

    "We are definitely not sharing with him on our secret number¡­"

    "If he wants my secret number then he has to trade with another secret number!"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan aside and into thepany of the five maidens as she whispered. "Ignore them. I know the answer."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he whispered back. "You know the answer?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "Of course. There are altogether forty-seven celestial fraternities in the Celestial Realm, big and small."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "So many?! Are you sure or not?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly. "I am very sure."

    Feng Minyue nodded. "I am vouch for Maiden Sisi here."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. "How did the two of you know?"

    Shui Sisi and Feng Minyue chuckled softly. "It is a secret."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Qianfeng: ¡­

    Most of the celestial fraternities are unreachable and it is nearly impossible for anyone to know exactly how many celestial fraternities there are in the Celestial Realm.

    Shui Xisi winked her eyes at Ji Yuan. "Now that we know the answer, shall we enter the red portal?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he whispered. "Of course! Let''s go in immediately."

    "But before we go in, I have something to settle first."

    The five maidens: ???

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned around to say to the hundreds of cultivators. "Well, actually I do know the answer to this trial. Since you are not going to share the numbers of the yellow portals then I shall not share the number to the red portal. Good bye then and good luck to your trial!"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, many of the cultivators were allughing heartily.

    "He must be a real joker¡­"

    "How would he know the answer¡­"

    "He must be pulling our leg¡­"

    "This must be the funniest thing that I''ve ever known¡­"

    All of a sudden many of the cultivators had stoppedughing as they shouted. "Look, look¡­"

    Ji Yuan and his party had suddenly entered the red portal together¡­

    "Did he really enter the red portal?"

    "He won''t die. Maybe he felt too awkward to stay around here¡­"

    "He won''t know the answer for sure¡­"

    Zhang Liao was sighing softly. "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that this ce is too awkward for you to stay. I told you so. This trial is quite difficult toplete. Hopefully we can meet again on the higher level soon¡­"

    All of a sudden there were six names that appeared on the side of the red portal; the engravings were sudden and loud as though a mighty force was writing on the stone cliff itself.

    The first name that had appeared on the stone cliff was Ji Yuan!

    Many of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity were stunned as they shouted excitingly. "The name that has just appeared is from Great Hero Ji Yuan! He has cleared the red portal trial!"

    "What?"

    <o>,m "He haspleted the red portal trial?!"</o>

    "He really knows the answer?"

    "Crap! Why didn''t I believe him?!"

    "It is toote to ask him to return now¡­"

    "I can''t believe that we have let the answer to this trial slips right in front of our nose¡­"

    "How did he know the answer?!"

    "Didn''t he juste?"

    "Impossible¡­"

    Zhang Liao''s jaws dropped as he stared at the red portal¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Inside the red portal, a beautiful voice asked in a spatial space. "How many celestial fraternities are there in the Celestial Realm?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a weak smile. "47¡­"

    This has better be the correct answer or we will all be sent to separate ces¡­

    There was a pause before the beautiful voice answered. "You have sessfullypleted the trial and you will receive the reward of this level as well as have your name engraved where the red portal is¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. This trial is too easy¡­"

    All of a sudden the beautiful voice gasped softly. "Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er. Is that you who is inside this man''s soul sea?"

    Xiang Li floated out of Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she curiously stared at the empty space. "I am Xiang Li now. Who are you? And how did you know my name?¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Xiang Li, you have a friend here?"

    "Or maybe an enemy¡­" He could not resist adding.

    The beautiful voice quietly answered with a soft sigh. "We used to be friends together¡­"

 Chapter 231 The First Trial Of The Second Level (2)

    Xiang Li curiously asked again. "Do you know me? I don''t remember you."

    The beautiful voice mncholy said a regretful tone. "Before I answer you, may I ask this cultivator what is the name that you wish to use as a mark for passing this trial? Your name will be engraved outside. If you''re first then you shall gain an extra reward."

    Ji Yuanughed. "I''m probably not the first but you may call me Ji Yuan and this shall be the name that I will be using to leave my mark."

    He was actually thinking that Feiyue, Little Princess, Qianfeng, Sisi and Feng Minyue may be among the first so he was probably not the first."

    The beautiful voice answered. "It shall be done as you''ve said."

    There was a short pause before she said. "You''re the first."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "I''m the first?! How is it possible?"

    "I cannot be wrong. You''re indeed the first." The beautiful voice insisted.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. He could have sworn that he was a little slow in answering the question. Moreover the spirit entity of this trial even had a conversation with Xiang Li briefly. Knowing Feiyue and Sisi, he knew that they were never slow to react and moreover the other maidens would be eager to answer the question as well if they know that they may be the first so that they could gain a bonus reward.

    But he did not know that all the other five maidens were purposely dying answering with their names so that Ji Yuan may get the extra reward.

    Xiang Li chuckled. "So you can tell me who you are now? How did you know my real name? I prefer to be called Xiang Li now. This is the name that Big Brother has given me!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he thought; that''s because I can''t remember your real name. It is such a tongue twister for me. I can''t even remember it after hearing it again.

    The beautiful voice muttered. "Xiang Li¡­it is really a beautiful name¡­"

    "Of course it is! It is all thanks to my Big Brother who has given me this name!" Xiang Li chuckled before adding proudly. "And everyone loves me because of this name."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he thought weakly; I can''t say they love you but you definitely love my women¡­

    "So how did you know my name?" Xiang Li began to look curiously at the spatial space that was around her. "And what is your name?"

    "My name is no longer of any importance now." The beautiful voice said sadly.

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan also had a perplexed look as he listen in¡­

    The beautiful voice continued with a heavy sigh. "Xiang Li¡­we used to be good friends and you''re my spirit entity. Long ago, I have a wish and that is to be an immortal cultivator. But on the day that I had be an immortal cultivator, you had disappeared. I had searched for you everywhere but you were nowhere to be found."

    Xiang Li hummed softly and her eyes looked confused. "I don''t remember you¡­"

    The beautiful voice sighed. "That is because¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted as he said coldly. "Xiang Li is not a tool. You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words in front of her. Let the past bygone."

    The beautiful voice gasped. "You know?"

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly.

    Xiang Liughed as she materialized her fingers to poke at Ji Yuan. "Come share with me! Xiang Li wants to know as well."

    Ji Yuanughed. "You''re still too young to understand."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    The beautiful voice gasped again. "Xiang Li¡­you have a material body now?"

    Xiang Li chuckled as she materialized her entire body as she danced around Ji Yuan while kicking at him. "Yes, I have a physical body now and it is all thanks to Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Do you have to kick me? Stop picking bad habits from the others."

    Xiang Li giggled as she continued to poke and kick at Ji Yuan. "Big Brother, I can feel you now heh!"

    "You can feel me for some time already. Please go back to your spirit form." Ji Yuan muttered weakly.

    The beautiful voice was also giggling softly before she said mncholy. "I''m really so d that Xiang Li now has a good master and a good friend. You''re a nice person. Better than most."

    Xiang Liughed. "I like you too, big sister. Why don''t youe out and talk to us instead?"

    The beautiful voice sighed weakly. "I can''t. It is because I have no physical body now and this trial is just my temporary dwelling ce. After I had be an immortal, I was killed by the deste immortals and now my spirit dwells in this ce. One day, I will be able to reincarnate. When I do, I hope that I can be great friends with Xiang Li again¡­"

    Xiang Liughed softly. "We can be great friends now if you wish to."

    Ji Yuan was somewhat startled. "You have be a spirit? How did youe to be here?"

    The beautiful voice heaved a soft sigh. "All the dead immortals that were killed in thest immortal war is gathered in this ce to help the cultivators from the Celestial Realm to aid them in their enlightenments. Once we have achieved enough karma, we will be able to reincarnate as a celestial instead of a mortal in the lower realm. In this way, we will be given another chance to be an immortal."

    Then she sighed regretfully. "I wish sometimes that I had never wished to be an immortal and lost my only friend¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with aforting voice. "It is over now. So what is my reward?"

    There was brief pause before the beautiful voice. "Since you''re the first to ovee this trial, naturally you will receive something good and unique."

    Ji Yuan was intrigued as heughed. "Something good and unique? What is it?" He was already thinking of showing off his awesome reward to everyone.

    "I''m going to give you my sword spirit as my gift to you." The beautiful voice answered.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I already have a sword spirit. It isn''t possible for me to obtain another sword spirit¡­"

    "It is possible. Because your sword spirit isn''t obtained by you and instead it is formed by yourself. Yours is a natural sword spirit. I can''t say that you may be able to merge the two sword spirit into one but it is worth a try." The beautiful voice said quietly.

    "Merge two sword spirits onto one? Is it even possible?" Ji Yuan gasped with a perplexed look. He had definitely never heard anything about it before¡­

    "It is possible because our two sword spirits have amon host." The beautiful voice said.<sub> </sub>

    "Whatmon host?" Ji Yuan muttered before he turned to look at Xiang Li. "Is Xiang Li?"

    "That''s right. Our sword spirits both recognize her and Xiang Li has an innate ability and that innate ability is the power to enhance spirit entities." The beautiful voice said.

    "That is¡­" As Ji Yuan was about to say something, there was a startling bright light that blinded him. In the next instant, he had appeared in an unfamiliar ce with rocky mountains and strong winds.

    A light whisper said. "Xiang Li, it is so good to know that you are well. Good luck. This Ji Yuan is so lucky to have you and he isn''t greedy."

    Ji Yuan regained his senses after the light whisper had disappeared before he was surrounded by four beautiful voices; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Sisi and Qianfeng were all asking him with excited chatter. "Ji Yuan, you''re finally here? What takes you so long? Are you first orst?"

    Feng Minyue heaved a soft sigh when she saw Ji Yuan had finally appeared¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Well I am first but something happens along the way."

    Xiang Li was already back in Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she was shouting. "Yea! I had just met a beautiful sister!"

    But of course no one could hear her as usual and she would not appear unless someone willed her to do so.

    "So what is your reward Ji Yuan? Can you show it to us?" The four maidens were all asking excitingly.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said. "I''ve got a sword spirit as my reward."

    "Liar!"

    "You''ve already got another sword spirit!"

    "It isn''t possible¡­"

    "We are not going to believe you unless you''ve shown it to us."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he tried to muster his sword spirit but his original sword spirit had appeared on his forehead.

    "Liar! This is still the same¡­"

    "Are you sure you got a sword spirit or are you trying to hide your reward from us?"

    "Why are you keeping secrets from us?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "I suppose to have a merge sword spirit. How do I know why it isn''t appearing? Maybe the merging is unsessful because both sword spirits aren''tpatible."

    "Lies!"

    "Ji Yuan, you''re too mean!"

    "Do you know that we have purposely let you be the first toplete this trial¡­"

    "You''re too selfish¡­"

    "You must have an awesome reward and you''re not sharing with us¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and felt like banging his head. "I''ve actually thought of showing off to all of you but I have never expected that my reward will be a sword spirit and it will be a failed sword spirit."

    "Lies!"

    "Liar!"

    "Ji Yuan, are you keeping your reward as your trump card? C''mon, share with us¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly. "I''m really telling the truth¡­"

    Thest time that he had told Ling Feiyue that his reward was Xiang Li, she did not believe him because Xiang Li did not heed hismands to appear. And now it was the same thing again¡­

    "Let''s ignore him. His soul is so impure!" Qianfeng hummed coldly as she stomped her foot before giving a backward kick at Ji Yuan''s knee which almost caused him to fall down the mountain slope.

    "Right!" Ling Feiyue had also pushed him out of the way, followed by Little Princess and Shui Xisi.

    Even Feng Minyue was folding her arms and looking the other way now.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li shouted. "Big Brother, I believe in you!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. "Only you believe in me is pointless. Why don''t youe out to exin things for me?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Alright¡­"

    Now that Xiang Li got the permission toe out, she quicklyughed jovially as she appeared. "Big Brother, he is speaking the truth¡­"

    "Look!" Ling Feiyue was sighing to the rest of the maidens. "He is even teaching Xiang Li to tell a lie for him¡­"

    "It is too ridiculous¡­"

    "Ji Yuan has corrupted our Xiang Li¡­"

    "Our pure and innocent Xiang Li cannot be allowed to stay with Ji Yuan. He is corrupting her¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Feng Minyue was gasping when she saw Xiang Li. "Is she a sentient spirit entity? He actually got a sentient spirit entity¡­"

 Chapter 232 The Heavenly Maze Of Doom (1)

    It took Ji Yuan and his party a full three weeks before they could find the entrance of the second trial on this level.

    Maybe it was because they were just in unlucky to have missed the trials as they had no way of exploring all the paths without slowing down their progress.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to the five maidens when he spotted the many cultivators that could be seen between two imposing cliffs. "With so many cultivators around, this must be the trial entrance. Told you I can''t be wrong."

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes. "You have been wrong for the past three weeks. Finally you''re right."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Finding the trial entrance is also part of the trial. Hopefully this trial will be an easy one."

    Feng Minyue said quietly. "There are no easy trials inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Shui Xisi began to look with great suspicion at Ji Yuan. "He seems to be a bad scout ever since he had started to bring another scout along with him."

    Ji Yuanughed as Little Princess, Feiyue and Qianfeng began to look sheepish and they were even flushing a little¡­

    Indeed for the past three weeks, Ji Yuan had insisted on bringing one of them to scout with him. Although they had protested at the very start but they were soon looking to scout with Ji Yuan.

    Each scouting trip typicallysted for three days.

    And it was a passionate three days of lovemaking rather than any real scouting trip.

    Ji Yuan exined weakly. "I''ve thought that having two brains are better than one but s!"

    Shui Xisi hummed softly. "Let me follow you the next time then."

    Feiyue quickly said with a weak smile. "Better not. Ji Yuan, he is always lost and getting distracted. You will end up quarreling with him or having a bad experience."

    "That is right!" Little Princess added panicky.

    "Ji Yuan, he has no sense of direction at all!" Qianfeng giggled as she added too as well.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I will have no sense of direction?!

    But there was nothing he could say because he knew that these three maidens were only trying to cover him.

    ? Shui Xisi hummed coldly as she marched ahead. She was not so dumb as to believe thempletely. It was obvious to her that they were not actually doing any scouting.

    She was not going to expose them.

    Rather, she was rather upset that she did not have any scouting chance to be with Ji Yuan¡­

    So she said to Feng Minyue as she pulled her away, "Sister. Ji Yuan is a badass. Don''t talk too much to him!"

    Feng Minyue muttered. "This¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan disyed an awkwardugh as he followed Sisi to the trial entrance.

    There were dozens of cultivators in this ce and most had a weary look.

    Ji Yuan looked around and did not see any cultivators from his celestial fraternity so he asked loudly. "Greeting fellow cultivators. What is this trial all about?"

    One rude cultivator hummed coldly. "Why don''t you touch the ck stele and you will know."<sub> </sub>

    A more friendly cultivator answered weakly. "This is an undergroundbyrinth trial. In order to ovee this trial, you have to find the secret portal inside thebyrinth."

    Another cultivator answered. "This trial isn''t easy toplete. I have been wandering aimlessly inside thebyrinth for several weeks. It took me nearly a week to get out of thisbyrinth alive."

    Ji Yuanughed as he said. "What is so difficult about abyrinth?"

    He knew that there was a trick in solving a maze. Just follow the maze to the extreme right or left by touching along the wall and the maze would be solved.

    Another cultivator answered weakly. "That is what I''ve though so as well. But I am so wrong. Thisbyrinth sketches for tens of miles underground."

    All the maidens were looking curiously at one another and they were all thinking; what can be so difficult about abyrinth?

    So they curiously followed Ji Yuan as they touched the ck stele that was at the entrance of thebyrinth together.

    The message on the ck stele was as followed;

    Find the blue portal at the end of thebyrinth. Thisbyrinth is divided into three sections. The normalbyrinth, the nightmarebyrinth and the uberbyrinth. The normalbyrinth requires no keys. The entrance of the nightmarebyrinth will require a silver key and the entrance of the uberbyrinth will require a gold key.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. He had never encountered a trial like this before.

    All the other five maidens were also blinking their eyes behind their curtain veils.

    Although the dozens of cultivators could not see the looks that were on the five maidens'' faces but they were allughing.

    "If it is just a simple maze, I would have cleared it a long time ago¡­"

    "Luckily there is a portal to exit back to the entrance at every section of thebyrinth or else I would have died inside¡­"

    "This isn''t just a normal maze, you have to find the silver and the golden keys as well¡­"

    "There are also monsters inside¡­"

    Ji Yuan eagerly picked up all the information as he listened in to their sarcasm. This would be useful to himter on.

    Slowly he turned to look at the five maidens. "So what do you think?"

    Ling Feiyueughed softly. "I say, we go and take this trial."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded. "We have no other choice now¡­"

    "Do we even have a choice?" Shui Xisi muttered weakly. "We only have one month toplete each level. And nearly a month has already passed for this level already."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "We have some extra time from the first level¡­"

    "The higher up levels will require more time toplete for sure." Shui Xisi interrupted. "Didn''t you hear that some of these cultivators are already here for weeks?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Right¡­"

    Little Princess chuckled softly as she whispered to Shui Xisi, "Good sister, let''s go in now. Don''t be upset with him, alright? How about this. We will let you have the next scouting mission with Ji Yuan."

    Ling Feiyue giggled. "Right, right!"

    Shui Xisi frowned before she could not resist a smile. "I don''t mind going on a scouting mission to help Ji Yuan. After all he has no sense of direction and I will surely be of help."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he smiled weakly; right¡­

 Chapter 233 The Heavenly Maze Of Doom (2)

    Ji Yuan was now standing at the entrance of thebyrinth.

    The entrance was actually a shimmering portal; Ji Yuan and the five maidens were all looking at it cautiously now.

    Ji Yuan said quietly. "If none of you have any objections then we shall enter into the portal but if anyone of you wishes to back off now, this is the time to do so¡­"

    However none of the five maidens gave any indication of backing off. Instead they were all nodding quietly.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to respond by leading them into the shimmering portal, three cultivators had suddenly approached them with wry smiles.

    One of the cultivators had even brandished a divine sword and the profound animus of his divine sword had indicated to everyone that he was a middle-saint cultivator.

    Now a middle-saint cultivator was quite high ranking in the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he was not expecting to encounter another saint cultivator.

    Moreover Ji Yuan did not seem to have any formidable vibes and it was a clear indication that he was not a power cultivator or a strong cultivator.

    That was the conclusion that this middle saint cultivator had arrived upon after observing Ji Yuan and his party after some time.

    As for the five curtain veil maidens, he had concluded that these maidens must have grouped together because they were weak and afraid. Therefore they had all grouped under this lone male cultivator for some extra protection.

    The weak will always group around the strong. This is the naturalw of the universe!

    And he had observed that these five maidens seemed to be looking at this lone male cultivator for leadership. Therefore this lone male cultivator definitely must be the strongest in the group.

    If he was not wrong, once he had killed or drove away this lone male cultivator, these five maidens would naturally flock under his pants.

    Ji Yuan looked curiously at the newly arrived three cultivators. "I don''t think we have met before. You are? And why are you brandishing your sword?"

    The middle saint cultivatorughed. "Of course we have not met at all. We are all from different celestial fraternities. Are you stupid or what?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All five maidens: ¡­

    The middle saint cultivator was trying to provoke Ji Yuan now.

    If this lone male cultivator was provoked then he would deploy another tactics to gauge his cultivation strength.

    But if he did not react, this would mean that he was actually weaker than him and he was of no consequences.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Then why are you here? I am going into the trial now. So please excuse us."

    The middle saint cultivator and the two cultivators that were with him immediately broke into roaringughter; it was because they had gauged that this lone cultivator was actually weaker than them and he did not dare to offend them at all.

    The middle saint cultivatorughed. "Listen up. I am Wu Kong, a saint cultivator from the Vast Expanse Celestial Fraternity. You can enter the trial, we don''t care at all but I will have to ask these five maidens to apany us instead."

    The other cultivator that was with himughed. "That is right."

    The third cultivator was already rubbing his palms in anticipations as he looked lecherous at the five curtain veiled maidens. "I wonder how beautiful the five of you are. Don''t be shy. Why don''t you take off your curtain hats and let me have a closer look at you? Do you know that it is your honor to apany us. Follow us and we will lead you toplete the trials."

    These three cultivators were actually friends and they were actually lucky to meet inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. They were quite delighted with their good fortunes and immediately they had set off to terrorize the many cultivators inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Now that they had met, they had decided to stay on this second level as long as they could to rob the other weaker cultivators and to conquer the many maidens that were inside.

    And Ji Yuan and his party had be their very first target now.

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Get out of my way."

    The middle saint cultivatorughed, "So what if we don''t get out of your way?"

    All of a sudden there was a sh of light as Ji Yuan unsheathed his immortal-step divine sword and he had cut off the left arms of the three cultivators!

    His attack was so sudden that it had caught the three cultivatorspletely by surprise.

    All three cultivators were groaning with great agony as they fell onto the ground and they had all turned ashen; they had never expected that this lone cultivator would be a peaked great saint!

    Now they had really offended the wrong cultivator!

    "Great Hero, please be merciful on us¡­" The three cultivators were pleading for their mercies now.

    They were all golden celestials and could easily re-attach their arms.

    All three of the cultivators were now betting that this lone cultivator was an orthodox cultivator and he could spare them.

    After all, he had an amicable look around him¡­

    The dozens of cultivators at the trial entrance were now startled and were all looking in the direction of Ji Yuan as they gasped at his immortal-step divine sword.

    This was a trial and the strong would attempt to seize an immortal-step divine sword if they had a chance.<sub> </sub>

    And there were many greedy looks that were now upon Ji Yuan; everyone was thinking, with so many of us here, surely we will have a chance to seize his divine sword¡­

    But they were all waiting for one another to make the first move because they were unsure if they were able to tackle down a peaked great saint¡­

    Many of the cultivators were thinking, "We have dozens of us here. Do we need to fear a single great saint?"

    But before any one of them could move, Little Princess had swiftly unsheathed her divine sword and killed the three cultivators in an instant!

    When she had disyed her divine sword, her profound animus had pronounced her as a great saintess!

    The dozens of cultivators were shocked that there were actually two great saints among them¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he looked at Little Princess, "Why did you do that for?"

    Little Princess said quietly. "I know that you are a great hero and you do not want to kill unnecessary therefore I have helped you to kill them. I am not averse to killing. Don''t forget that I used to be from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "This isn''t the point. You shouldn''t have killed them."

    "They are evil cultivators. Why shouldn''t I kill them?" Little Princess hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Actually if you have given me a little longer, they would be dead cultivators soon."

    Little Princess: ???

    The other four maidens: ???

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Never mind that. Let''s enter the portal."

    He was actually waiting for the other cultivators to make a move first and to check if there are more cultivators in cahoots with the three cultivators before killing the three cultivators.

    As Ji Yuan approached the shimmering portal, he muttered. "Although there is no need to kill needlessly but these three cultivators had dared to touch my women. Because of this, I am not going to let them off lest they be a scourge to the others as well."

    The five maidens gasped softly as they watched Ji Yuan''s back and felt a little touched by his words.

    Following closely behind Ji Yuan, they soon entered the shimmering portal at the same time.

    They soon found themselves in a dim maze and there were two passages in front of them; one to the left and to the right.

    Immediately Ji Yuan asked them. "So which way? I say we go left¡­"

    "Right side." All five maidens answered at almost the same time.

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    "I say left. I am the party leader." Ji Yuan frowned.

    "Right is always right." Ling Feiyue insisted.

    "That''s right." Shui Xisi giggled as she agreed with Feiyue.

    "Right sounds right." Little Princessughed.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he looked at Qianfeng and Feng Minyue. "Howe the two of you agree with them as well?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly. "Woman''s instinct."

    Feng Minyue answered. "Left sounds so wrong."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyueughed softly as she suggested. "Why don''t we have a majority win vote?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I have already lost if this is the case¡­"

    The other four maidensughed around Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi pinched Ji Yuan. "Come on, be a gentleman and follow us."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he coolly said. "What if I say no?"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before she answered coolly. "That will depend if you want to live or not."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he answered. "You win¡­"

 Chapter 234 The Heavenly Maze Of Doom (3)

    After a few days, Ji Yuan and his party had finally cleared the first section of thebyrinth and found the entrance of the nightmarebyrinth.

    There were two portals facing them now; one leading into the nightmarebyrinth and the other would lead them back to the entrance of the trial.

    All six of them were looking quite sheepish at one another; it was because they had been lost for a few days in the maze and was lucky to have found the next entrance of the maze.

    None of them had been right with their directions. Left or right, it did not matter.

    It was because thisbyrinth was not a simple maze but a spatial maze that had multiple levels and portals. The normal rules of the maze just did not apply to it.

    Ji Yuanughed. "We have finally found the next section of the maze now. We must be geniuses to find the entrance so soon. Haha."

    "Not so soon. We''ve taken several days." Ling Feiyue sighed.

    Feng Minyue smiled. "It is actually quite soon. Many of the trials often take some time to clear. We have actually been quite lucky for thest two trials."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Hear! Hear!"

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "I am afraid that the first section of thebyrinth is actually the easiest to clear. The next two sections won''t be easy. Just hearing the name nightmarebyrinth and uberbyrinth is worth being cautious about the next two sections."

    Shui Xisi was feeling a little impatient as she said. "Come, let go in now. We are just wasting time here."

    Ji Yuan and the rest of the party agreed as they went into the portal that would led them into the nightmarebyrinth.

    After they had entered into the portal, they soon found themselves in a cavern and there were steps leading down the tform.

    Below the steps were sixrge deste beasts waiting for them!

    This startled them as they all quickly unsheathed their swords.

    But they soon calm down as they suddenly realized that these deste beasts were fifth rank deste beasts.

    Fifth rank deste beasts were still dangerous and they could kill a careless saint if they were careless since their natural weapons like their ws and jaws could tear apart a cultivator easily.

    The reason why Ji Yuan and his party had calmed down because they had realized that these deste beasts were all kept at bay by an invisible force and they could not approach the steps of the tform.

    "This is the safe zone, I guess." Ji Yuan quickly calmed down after a quick observation. In his hastiness to unsheathe his immortal-step sword, he had also grabbed his Mirror of Telepathy as well.

    All of a sudden there was a shimmering glow in his mirror that startled Ji Yuan.

    Someone seemed to be trying tomunicate with him via the Mirror of Telepathy¡­

    The other five maidens were startled too as they turned to look at Ji Yuan curiously.

    Ji Yuan was perplexed as well as he curiously imbued his profound animus into the Mirror of Telepathy as he frowned. "Don''t look at me like this. I have no other friends inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    When his profound aura had touched the Mirror of Telepathy, a sweet but tired voice had immediately greeted him. "Great Hero Ji¡­is it you? I have finally contacted you."

    Ji Yuan was startled to hear that the sweet voice hade from Mu Wan''Er.

    "Wan''Er, it is you? Yes, I am Ji Yuan. Why are you using the Mirror of Telepathy?" Ji Yuan was startled.

    The other five maidens had also recognized Mu Wan''Er voice and they were equally startled.

    It is Wan''Er? Why is she calling Ji Yuan for?

    Mu Wan''Er said mncholy. "I am afraid that this trial may be my veryst. I can''t exit from it¡­and I wish to talk to you for the veryst time."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly asked. "What happen? What is this trial that you are facing right now? Don''t give up hope please. You can still ovee this trial!"

    Mu Wan''Er answered weakly. "I have been lost for many days now in this trial and I can''t find the exit portal to recuperate my profound strength. Before I die, I have suddenly thought of you and thought of bidding you farewell¡­"

    "What trial is this?" Ji Yuan interrupted urgently as he knew that they could onlymunicate for only a few minutes.

    "I''m in a maze and I am lost. I really don''t know where I am and it is a terrible ce¡­filled with traps and monsters¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her as he mustered a manlyugh. "You have found the right person! I am good in navigating mazes. Listen to me and I will get you out soon enough."

    Mu Wan''Er was startled. "Really?"

    Ji Yuan said firmly. "Trust me and I will get you out of this ce soon enough. I am the master of navigating mazes and there are none that are better than me. All you need to do is to navigate extremely left or right by touching your fingers along the walls. I promise you that you won''t get lost in this manner. Do as I say and you will get out of the maze in no time."

    <o>,m Mu Wan''Er gasped softly. "Really? There is hope for me¡­"</o>

    "Really! Please don''t lose up hope¡­" All of a sudden the Mirror of Telepathy went dead as Ji Yuan''s voice was cut off.

    He sighed softly as he muttered. "Good luck¡­"

    Ling Feiyue asked him. "Do you want to use my Mirror of Telepathy to reach out to her again?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan shook his head with a regretful soft sigh. "There is nothing we can do for her. We can only wish her good luck for now. Better save the Mirror of Telepathy of our own emergency uses."

    Feng Minyue sighed softly. "I hope she will be alright¡­"

    Xiang Li was also saying woefully in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Yea! Hope Maiden Wan''Er will be alright!"

    Little Princess took a look at Ji Yuan before she chuckled softly. "Ji Yuan, did you just im that you are a master of navigation in the mazes? Then why are we lost in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When the other maidens heard Little Princess, they could not resist a soft giggle.

    Shui Xisiughed. "We seem to be lost in this ce."

    Ji Yuan immediately made his protest. "We are not lost. As a matter of fact, we have only just got into this ce. How can you im that we are lost?"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before she smiled wryly. "We are definitely lost for a few days in the earlier section of thebyrinth."

    "That is because the whole lot of you didn''t go left and insist on going right." Ji Yuan protested weakly.

    Ling Feiyue winked at Bai Qianfeng who was standing near her before she turned to look at Ji Yuan. "Then why not we let this ''Master of Navigation'' lead us this time round?"

    Bai Qianfengughed softly. "We should definitely give him a chance to prove himself to us."

    Shui Xisi could not resist a few chuckles. "I doubt that he is as good as he has imed to be."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Ahem!" He purposely coughed to get everyone attention first. "Of course I am the master of navigation and I bet that you will be awed by my awesomeness¡­"

    Except for Feng Minyue, all the other four maidens were all giggling.

    "I don''t believe¡­"

    "He is boasting again¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is so funny¡­"

    "He is making a bluff again¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Feng Minyue said quietly. "I think he isn''t boasting¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she pulled Feng Minyue to her side. "You don''t know Ji Yuan well enough¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he watched his only supporter got pulled over to the other side¡­

    "Listen up!" Ji Yuan proimed loudly. "The nightmarebyrinth requires us to find a silver key in order to gain ess to the uberbyrinth. Therefore finding the entrance of the uberbyrinth is useless unless we can find the silver key."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled. "Isn''t thismon sense?"

    "So what do you propose that we do first?" Little Princess asked teasingly.

    Ji Yuan said heroically, "Is there a need to ask? First all, we have to kill these deste beasts at the bottom of the steps first¡­"

    "He doesn''t have a n at all." Ling Feiyueughed softly as she rolled to and fro as she interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan was not upset but he was grinning; Feiyue, you look really very beautiful especially when you areughing. You look even more beautiful naked andughing as I am banging you a couple of days ago¡­

    He put his hands on both his hips as heughed heartily. "If you''re ready to see how I beat this trial then let''s go now!"

    Ling Feiyueughed as she put her head into Little Princess'' bosoms. "Sorry¡­I just can''t stopughing."

    Then she turned to wink at Ji Yuan. "But before we can see you in action, shouldn''t you first prove your action first by getting rid of these deste beasts first?"

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and even Feng Minyue were all giggling when they had heard Ling Feiyue''s tease.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "There are six deste beasts. One for each of us. It is just nice¡­"

    "But you are the only man in the party." Shui Xisiughed. "So gogo!"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulder before he formed a weak smile at the six deste beasts below. "You know monsters. If thedies want you to die in my hands, you have to ept it. If you can understand me, quickly flee or fear my wrath that will soon be upon you. Because in a short moment time, it won''t be funny for you anymore and you can''t roar at me anymore."

 Chapter 235 The Heavenly Maze Of Doom (4)

    The six deste beasts were naturally quickly dispatched by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue were now walking along the passage ways of the Nightmare Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan''s n was simple enough. They were to split into three smaller groups to investigate the many passage ways that were inid out in front of them.

    He had told them. "There are three passage ways now. I suggest that we split into three smaller groups to map the ce. We will meet here again after two hours to gauge which is the best possible route to take. In this way, we can also avoid some dead ends."

    Ling Feiyue hadmented on his suggestion. "This is so old fashion¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "This may be old fashion but it is also the most effective way."

    As the maidens had surrendered the leadership to Ji Yuan now, they had no other choices now but to follow exactly what Ji Yuan had instructed.

    So Ji Yuan had suggested. "Maiden Feng with Sisi. Little Princess will group with Qianfeng while Feiyue will be grouped with me¡­"

    Ling Feiyue protested almost immediately. "Who wants to group with you?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "You have no other choices. Haha."

    Shui Xisi said. "With Maiden Ling to watch over him, he cannot do anything funny."

    And so Ling Feiyue was grouped with Ji Yuan.

    As the two of them went off, they began to bicker, drawing amusements from the other maidens.

    But when they were finally alone in the passage, Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue were suddenly holding hands together as they looked shyly at each other.

    The usual ''wild'' and ''bold'' Ling Feiyue was suddenly looking very docile, shy and even submissive as Ji Yuan held her hand warmly.

    Ji Yuan said gently to her. "Feiyue, you really never give me any face all the time."

    Ling Feiyue looked away shyly before she returned her nce upon him. "My Lord Ji Yuan, are you upset?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Hell, no."

    "Really?" Ling Feiyue asked gently.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he kissed her gently on her forehead. "Thank you."

    He knew that Ling Feiyue was purposely trying to avoid being too close to him while in the group because she did not want any of the maidens to feel that she was constantly in possession of Ji Yuan''s time.

    It was a tricky affair that Feiyue and the other maidens must manage to be in harmony with one another.

    Ji Yuan only knows it too well.

    When Ji Yuan was alone with Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess, they were all extremely docile and submissive. It was as though they had a change of character.

    These maidens were all leaders of the celestial fraternity and they were not easily intimidated by the strong cultivators. But in front of Ji Yuan, they were all extremely submissive and they were constantly pretending to be in their old self.

    It was a different story when they were alone with Ji Yuan because they had all respected Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue cuddled close to Ji Yuan as she looked quietly at Ji Yuan. "My lord, I am so d to have you by my side."

    Ji Yuan smiled. "Same here."

    Ling Feiyue muttered. "To think that we have almost missed the chance to be together a hundred years ago."

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly as he heaved a heavy sigh. "That''s right¡­"

    "A hundred years ago, you only have your sights on Jiajia." Ling Feiyue sighed softly.

    There was no denying it so he nodded. It was because he had fallen in love with Jiajia on first sight.

    A hundred years ago, Jiajia, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had conspired a meeting to have a firsthand meeting with Ji Yuan.

    As they were all maidens with repute, they considered it to be an embarrassing thing to meet him, especially Jiajia.

    Therefore Jiajia had plotted a chance meeting with the Great Poet Ji Yuan.

    The only problem was that she had not predicted that the Great Poet Ji Yuan would fall in love with her on their very first meeting and she felt awkward if she had met Ji Yuan alone.

    As she happened to know that Ji Yuan had written a poem about Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue and she knew that these two maidens seemed to have a liking for Ji Yuan too due to his renown as a romantic poet.

    Therefore she plotted a n for the three of them to meet Ji Yuan together.

    In this way, she would know if Ji Yuan may or may not be interested in her. It was a mini test for Ji Yuan as well.

    However Jiajia was not able to predict that Ji Yuan would be so clumsy in front of Xue Qianxue and then all of a sudden her ns were screwed identally by Ji Yuan.

    In the end, Ji Yuan was still in love with her but he had also left a deep impression upon Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Ji Yuan''s decision to suddenly enter into cultivation retreat stunned Jiajia, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue. Before they could stop Ji Yuan, he had already run away hastily.

    All three maidens had actually visited the Five Heavens Peaks to offer an exnation to him but they had expected Ji Yuan to move into action so swiftly.

    Ling Feiyue still remembered that day when Xue Qianxue and her had paid a visit together to the Orthodox Sword Sect to look for Ji Yuan in secret.

    However she soon learnt that he had already handed over the sect leadership to Ye Chengxi and had already left the Orthodox Sword Sect.<sub> </sub>

    They werepletely stunned; Ji Yuan didn''t even hesitate at all¡­

    In the end they left the Five Heavens Peak with a heavy heart, unsure what to do and felt horrible.

    They were not the only ones who had felt very bad.

    Jiajia even took the initiative to build a new celestial sect in the Five Heavens Peak to wait for Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue was unsure if she was really in love with Ji Yuan back then. She had thought that Ji Yuan is a talented poet and she had forgotten that Ji Yuan is actually a sword saint.

    She had thought of Ji Yuan as an idol only and thought that it was impossible for them to be together. After all, she is an unorthodox cultivator while Ji Yuan is an orthodox cultivator.

    But many things happened ever since they had met again a hundred yearter and they were now together¡­

    Ling Feiyue shook her head. "I just don''t understand how your cultivation level be higher than me¡­and it is from right under my nose."

    Ji Yuanughed. "It is all thanks to you."

    Ling Feiyue hummed softly. "d that you''ve remembered it¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had gently pressed her on the wall as he began to caress her.

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly. "Not here. There may be other cultivators around."

    Xiang Li was gasping as she held her hands onto her mouth but she was shouting shyly. "YES! YES! YES!"

    "I don''t care." Ji Yuan said gently as he kissed her ears and began to fondle her before he lifted up her short skirt.

    Ling Feiyue''s ears were flushing hotly as she felt Ji Yuan''s hands all over her and he was even causing her to moan a little.

    "This is too bold¡­"

    "Aren''t you the bold one?" Ji Yuan said teasingly. "Why are you so shy now?"

    "The others maye this way if they havee to a dead end." Ling Feiyue protested weakly.

    Ji Yuanughed. "You didn''t realize why I have brought you here with me?" As heughed, he was caressing her butt and was already loosening her belt. "This is my n all along."

    "You! So you actually have no ns at all. We are supposed to be mapping the ce. This ce is hundreds of miles long and filled with dangerous deste beasts. The sooner we get out of here, the better."

    Ling Feiyue voice was gentle and soft even when she was upset. When she was protesting weakly, her voice was softer than ever and she could not stop Ji Yuan with her mere words.

    Although she was protesting but her spirit and body were willing because she did not stop Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed softly. "That is only my secondary n. This is my primary n."

    Ling Feiyue: ...

    She quickly made a weak protest by pulling back her skirt but Ji Yuan really had deft fingers as he stroked from between her legs¡­

    This caused Ling Feiyue to gasp softly.

    Ji Yuan muttered as he kissed her. "Feiyue, I love you¡­"

    As he pressed her on the wall as he began to kiss her passionately, all of a sudden the wall in front of Ling Feiyue began to move all of a sudden, startling the two of them.

    With a soft gasp, the two of them fell into a shimmering portal that warped them away.

    A bright light soon followed and in the next blink of an eye, they had suddenly found themselves in a white chamber.

    In the middle of the white chamber was a hovering silver key.

    They had found the silver key!

    Ji Yuan was stunned before heughed heartily. "It seems that we have found the silver key."

    Ling Feiyue was also stunned by their lucky urrences. "Our luck is too good¡­"

    Just as she was about to reach out for the silver key, Ji Yuan had grabbed her with a jovial chuckle. "My dear Feiyue, where are you going?"

    "I am going to grab the silver key? Is there a trap?" Ling Feiyue answered curiously.

    "Not that." Ji Yuan grinned as he suddenly pulled her to him. "We still have an unfinished business to settle first."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly as she cuddled softly in his embrace. "You are such a badass. You are still thinking of that¡­you are not a pure cultivator at all¡­"

    "Of course I am not a pure cultivator." Ji Yuan grinned as fondled her as he slowly pulled off her belt and let her skirt fell off¡­

    Ling Feiyue gasped as herst defense broke down as she shyly said. "And I love you my lord¡­"

    Then with a flustered look she said. "Don''t forget to draw the mapter¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "After we have finished our business first¡­"

    Xiang Li was beaming with anticipations. "Yes! YESSS!!!"

 Chapter 236 The Heavenly Maze Of Doom (5)

    When the party had regrouped again, Ji Yuan was grinning while Ling Feiyue had a flustered look.

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue had all scouted extensively and their maps were actually quite detailed.

    Even though they had only two hours but they had done plenty of scouting.

    "I can sense the presence of two sixth rank deste beasts in this passage way." Bai Qianfeng said as she pointed at her map. "There may be more of them. So we didn''t take this passage way yet."

    Feng Minyue pointed at her map to say. "Sisi and I are here but there are five passage ways in this area. There is even a portal too. However we did not dare to enter this portal lest it may be a one way trip."

    "What about your side?" Little Princess asked.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he took out his map; his map was badly drawn and had few details.

    Little Princess: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "This is your map?" Shui Xisi hummed coldly. "Have you been scouting at all, dear supreme leader."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course I am."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "He was. I was keeping a careful look at him."

    Then she stared coldly at Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan, show them what we have found."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he shed a silver key in front of them. "Look what we''ve found. This is the silver key. With this key, we can enter the uberbyrinth now. All we need to do now is to find the entrance of the uberbyrinth."

    Shui Xisi was startled as she stared at the silver key. "You¡­have found the silver key."

    With an awkward look, she said weakly. "I''m sorry. I shouldn''t have doubted you."

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue had a look of guilt as well. They had wronged Ji Yuan and thought that he was not serious.

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "That''s alright. I was exploring the passage way and had thought that the passage way that we were in looked a little out of ce. And guess what? After spending some time to do the investigation, we had actually found a secret wall passage that triggered a secret portal and we had found the silver key."

    Bai Qianfeng gasped. "So this means that the silver keys and even the gold keys were hidden out of sight. This is a miscalction on our part¡­"

    "We have been scouting fairly quickly and may have missed out on the details." Little Princess gasped softly.

    Shui Xisi lowered her nces. "We should have paid more attention to the details¡­"

    Feng Minyue muttered. "Ji Yuan has found the silver key for us. He is more attentive to details than us¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "He may not be able to draw well but he is quite observant. Don''t think too much sisters. Ji Yuan has a big heart and he isn''t ming anyone."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course! The more pressing thing that we have to do now is to find the most likely way to the uberbyrinth."

    Feng Minyue asked Ji Yuan. "So which way do you think we should take now?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he answered. "Usually the way where the silver key is found will often be the wrong one if the designer of this level seeks to confuse the cultivators that are taking the trial. Therefore we should take the route where you have scouted."

    He pondered briefly before he said coolly. "The ces where the portal and the deste beasts are located are the most intriguing¡­"

    The five maidens nodded and they were discussing the possible routes as well.

    But after a while Ji Yuan''s eyes rolled as he suddenly picked up Little Princess'' map and Feng Minyue''s map with a soft frown. "There are three passage ways on this side and five passage ways on the other side¡­but on my side, I had also spotted only three passage ways. Why are there five passage ways on this side? When we firste to the first branches, we also had three passage ways¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly said. "We should enter that portal that you have found instead."

    "Are you sure?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I am actually unsure. That portal may even be a death trap for all we know. But it is a gambit. So what all of you say about this?"

    All five maidens replied unanimously. "We trust in your leadership! We''ll follow your lead."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Haha. I actually don''t have much faith in myself¡­"

    Xiang Li was shouting in his soul sea. "Big Brother! I believe in you too as well!"

    Ling Feiyueughed as she picked up the map, "Come. Follow my lead!"

    All of a sudden the other four maidens had turned ashen because they spotted something white at the back of Feiyue''s hair.

    Ji Yuan saw what they had seen and he quickly shook his head awkwardly to say. "It is only cobwebs¡­"

    He was hinting to them not to say anything about it lest it embarrassed Ling Feiyue.

    Shui Xisi hummed softly. "This spider must really be a big spider."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li face-palmed with her hands inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "This is sooooo embarrassing¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately answered her in his soul sea. "It isn''t you. Why are you feeling embarrassed about it¡­"

    -

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, it was the dead of the night in the cool mountains and a secret organization had been secretly formed.

    Several lone figures could be seen making a secret pact together as they announced their life and death pact to this secret organization.

    The leader of this secret organization was Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia) and several beautiful maidens could be seen as well. They were Saintess Xue Qianxue, Saintess Jian Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Celestial Shangguan Yan, Saintess Ling Tianshui. Saintess Hua Wuwu and Saintess Hua Baiyue.

    Hua Wuwu chuckled. "I am involved too?"

    Jiajia took a cold look at her before she said coolly. "That is because you are too talkative so I''ve decided to keep you by my side to monitor you."

    Hua Wuwu: ¡­

    Hua Baiyue giggled as she pulled Wuwu to her side to whisper. "Don''t you get our mistress? You''re in because you are going to be Ji Yuan''s little concubine."

    Hua Wuwu had a little flush on her cheeks as she protested weakly. "Who wants to be his little concubine? I don''t even know him well. He is only a little rascal that likes to take advantage of the others."

    Jiajia folded her arms with a wry smile. "Think what you want."

    Ling Tianshui quietly said. "ording to our scouts'' reports, the Evil Cultivation Pce seems to havepletely disappeared after their disastrous loss in the settlement. It seems that the blow dealt to them is quite severe...however¡­"

    She quickly added. "However we all know that this is only a plot by the true mastermind behind the activities of the Evil Cultivation Pce to cover their real tracks. We don''t even know who our enemy is except that he may be someone very powerful."

    "Someone so powerful that he is able to take down my Xiao Ruan and several of the top cultivators in my sect." Jiajia sighed softly.

    Xue Qianxue nodded. "We must quickly track down the remnants of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Or else we won''t even have a single clue."

    Shangguan Yan said quietly. "The real question is, what is the true objective of this mastermind?"

    Saintess Yuluo and Fairy Ye Chengxi had suddenly said at the same time. "Someone is here." The two of them had acute divine senses and it was something that not even Ji Yuan was aware of. This was actually their trump cards.

    When Ji Yuan had first exited his seventh realm seclusion, he was caught red-handed by Fairy Ye Chengxi not once but twice as he spied upon her. Before Li Qiang had sensed Ji Yuan, she had already known that he was there but she had kept quiet about it.

    A beautiful maiden quietly approached them with a soft sigh. "So I''ve been discovered¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was startled. "Zhao Songjin, it is you? Why are you here?"

    Zhao Songjin replied quietly. "I bear no ill-intentions. In fact, I wish to join all of you to find out who the real mastermind is."

    She turned to look at Jiajia with a wry smile. "I didn''t expect that the renowned Saintess Fang Zhenfei of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect to have a leadership position over the Celestial Orthodox Sect, Spirit Blue Moon Sect and the Profound Heaven Sword Manor."

    Xue Qianxue smiled. "I don''t really care about the leadership position of the Celestial Orthodox Sect. I am using my own capability to help my sisters here."

    Jiajia took a cautious look at her before she said. "What we are doing is very dangerous. You shouldn''t be involved. Go now."

    Zhao Songjin inhaled deeply before she said. "In my whole life, I have lived a lie and the mastermind behind the Evil Cultivation Pce has caused me deep grief. Even though Yin Wei may or may not be dead but my vendetta against the Evil Cultivation Pce will not stop here. I know that you''re after the Evil Cultivation Pce so please let me join you."

    Jiajia shook her head. "Our enemies are not easy to beat and you may even pay with it with your life as well."

    Zhao Songjin said coolly. "I am not afraid of death anymore. Death isn''t scary. It is when you have failed to take your vengeance against your most hated foe that is the scariest."

    Then she smiled. "I do have a clue to where this mastermind is."

    Jiajia gasped. "You know?"

    Zhao Songjin replied. "It is pointless to find the remnants of the Evil Cultivation Pce. They won''t know anything. Only the top leadership of the Evil Cultivation Pce knows the whereabouts of this mastermind. For example the Evil Cultivation Master."

    "We don''t even know where the Evil Cultivation Master is." Jiajia sighed softly.

    Zhao Songjin smiled. "Like I say, I have a clue."

    "Really?" Jiajia asked.

    "Yin Wei once had a loose tongue when I was around him." Zhao Songjin quietly said. "I will share with you what I know if you will allow me to join you."

    Jiajia nodded slowly. Men are always looser in their tongue when they are around beautiful women, forgetting that women are sometimes more attentive.

    "Wee to our secret organization then." Jiajia said decisively.

 Chapter 237 The Uber Labyrinth (1)

    In just a few more days, Ji Yuan and his party had gathered an additional five more silver keys.

    After Ji Yuan had found the first silver key, he had developed the knack of finding more of the silver keys.

    While in thebyrinth, they had dodged traps, kill more deste beasts and had also met at least twenty plus cultivators.

    The encounter with the other cultivators was mostly peaceful as Ji Yuan was in a bigger party and everyone was only interested in finding their way to the Uber Labyrinth toplete this trial.

    These cultivators however quickly dodged out of Ji Yuan''s way and were even afraid of their bigger group so he did not even have the chance to ask for their names or for any meaning directions.

    A few even bolted immediately.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "These cultivators are a little too cautious¡­"

    Ling Feiyueughed. "Like you are when we have first met."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Right¡­

    When Ji Yuan had learnt that Ling Feiyue was a seventh realm saintess, he had bolted from her immediately after he was caught observing her secret duel.

    "But I am not afraid of you now. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Shui Xisiughed. "Then what about me?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I am really a little afraid of you because you are such a tigress."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She immediately kicked and punched Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan quickly dodged out of her way with a soft chuckle.

    Bai Qianfengughed softly as she looked at Ji Yuan silently. "It is so good to have a cultivation partner like Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had never expected that a lofty goddess like her would fall in love with a mere celestial like Ji Yuan. In the past, it was unthinkable¡­

    Ji Yuan had moved her heart and had even given her a celestial sword without a second thought¡­

    "My lord¡­" Bai Qianfeng muttered silently as she continued to look at Ji Yuan with a flush look.

    After they had found the six silver keys, they soon found arge cavern with three portals. They knew immediately that one of the portals would lead them to the uberbyrinth, one to the entrance of the trial and the other one would take into a spatial space where they had to wait until the end of trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Naturally there was a ck stele in front of the portals to serve as a guide for them.

    Except that there were a few problems.

    They were not alone.

    Arge dragon like deste beast was lying in front of the portals and its butt was touching the ck stele.

    Without touching the ck stele, they had no way of knowing which portals to enter even if they had the silver keys.

    And thisrge dragon was a seventh rank profound deste beast!

    Not only that was the case, there were also five other cultivators that were hiding out of sight from therge deste beast and they had spotted Ji Yuan and his party.

    One of the cultivators sarcastically said. "We are waiting for more reinforcements but it turn out that there are ''five maidens''."

    Ji Yuan immediately whispered back. "What? Are you looking down on women?"

    Another cultivator hummed coldly. "Don''t expect us to protect your womenter."

    Another cultivator said. "Be quiet! We need some team work now to take down this fearsome profound deste beast together. This is a seventh rank monster and is not a joking matter to deal with. In fact, it is a life and death battle to fight it. Do you all want to die?"

    Another cultivator nodded before he solemnly said. "I am a saint here. The whole lot of you should do as I say if you want to live. I have previously killed three seventh rank profound beasts and I am probably the most experienced¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Before he could finish what he was going to say, Bai Qianfeng had shed in front of therge profound beast and had unsheathed her celestial-step sword and had brutally whacked it.

    There was a thunderous implosion as she sent therge deste beast to crash onto the walls of the cavern.

    Immediately the seventh rank profound beast began to whimper and appeared to be submissive as it bent in front of her.

    All five of the cultivators were startled!

    Celestial-step divine sword!

    And this maiden was a peaked great saintess as well!

    The same cultivator was now stammering weakly. "This, this¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng frowned. "So you don''t want to fight and wants to follow me? You''re too big and I can''t allow you to follow me."

    Immediately the seventh rank profound beast shrunk to a small size that was as small as a house cat.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    She sighed. "Since you want to follow me, I have no objections but you must not harm my friends and you can only attack only when I have asked you to. Got it?"

    The miniature seventh rank profound beast nodded immediately as she whimpered loudly.

    "Since you are a female profound beast then I shall call you Yuanyuan." Bai Qianfeng proimed with beaming delight.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck?!

    The other five cultivators were too stunned for words. This maiden had actually intimidated a seventh rank profound deste beast and had even made her into her spirit beast with a spirit cor¡­

    Who is this maiden?

    She is too fierce¡­

    All five cultivators were staring speechless at this maiden with a curtain veil. As for her appearance, they could not see clearly and they were now afraid that she may now suddenly turn upon them¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he walked to Bai Qianfeng, followed by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue. "Qianfeng, you should let me do the job."

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly. "Sorry I am a little impatient after spending several days here." Then she held Yuanyuan to her bosoms and showed it to Ji Yuan. "Look! This is my Yuanyuan."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Why did this deste beast suddenly decides to follow you¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng replied coolly. "It is because it is the nature of this type of deste beast to be submissive to the strongest."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he muttered. "Sounds like you."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princessughed softly at their antics before they said together. "Let''s check the ck stele."

    They soon found out that taking the blue portal to the left would take them to the uberbyrinth and that they would only require one key as a single key wouldst for an hour.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "How do I know that I will only need one key and not six keys?" He had actually found a silver key for each one of them.

    "Well in that case¡­" All of a sudden he threw the remaining silver keys except for one into the portal that lead to the entrance of the trial. "This is for those that have not reached the uberbyrinth yet."

    After he had said that, Ji Yuan and his party had entered the portal that led to the uberbyrinth, leaving the five cultivators behind with a stunned expression.

    One of them muttered. "Should we follow them?"

    Another said. "Be thankful that they did not massacre us."

    "That maiden is too fierce." Another cultivator weakly said.

 Chapter 238 The Uber Labyrinth (2)

    Ji Yuan and his party had entered the uberbyrinth.

    They soon found themselves in another tform which was the safe zone. There would always be a safe zone at every section of thebyrinth.

    Looking around them, they saw that there were six passages that wereid in front of them.

    As there were no deste beasts on sight, they soon lowered their guards to say to one another. "So which way to take? Ji Yuan, what do you think?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Why are you looking at me like this? It is not like I can decide which way to take¡­"

    Ling Feiyueughed. "You are the leader. Of course you get to pick which way to take. We are now depending on you to find the gold keys and the way now."

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "That is right."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested weakly. "Can I not be the leader this time?"

    Little Princess raised her fingers to shook in front of Ji Yuan as sheughed. "Oh no. Not only must you be the leader, you must also be the scout as well."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly. "I have suddenly realized that being leader isn''t fun at all."

    All the maidens wereughing gently, including Feng Minyue.

    Ji Yuan pretended to sigh weakly. "Well, this job is a man''s job and I am the only one that is qualified to take this job."

    He was finally the official leader now!

    "So which one should we take?" Bai Qianfeng asked curiously.

    "Hm¡­" Ji Yuan muttered as he stared at the six passages. These six passages all looked identical. If he said that he wanted to choose by tossing a dice, he would surely get killed by them.

    But in front of them, he had to pretend he is a man of wisdom so heughed aloud. "Well, we shall pick the first passage."

    Feng Minyue asked curiously. "Why is that so?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    That is because the first passage is the passage that is to the extreme left and he likes to pick left¡­

    But he said with a softugh. "Haha. Usually the first option is the most obvious so if you are the designer of thisbyrinth, you don''t want to make it so obvious so you will want to confuse people with more passages."

    Ling Feiyue pondered quietly. "This makes sense¡­"

    "This sounds right¡­" Little Princess muttered.

    "My lord is always right¡­" Bai Qianfeng muttered as well.

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly; did they get brainwash by him? He is obviously picking the left passage that he always favored¡­

    Feng Minyue sighed silently; Ji Yuan''s choice doesn''t make any sense to her¡­

    But Ji Yuan caught her expression and asked with a softughter. "Maiden Feng, what are you thinking about?"

    Feng Minyue smiled weakly before she pointed at the ground. "Nothing. Just thinking that maybe we are the first to arrive here since there are no dusts on this tform."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he replied. "It does appear that we are the first to arrive here but this may not be the only entrance to the uberbyrinth."

    "Oh?" Feng Minyue was surprised as did the other maidens.

    Ji Yuan exined. "There are no reasons for there to have only one entrance given that this whole ce is so vast. Rather, I think that there may be multiple entrances here."

    "So there are multiple entrances toplete this trial as well?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    "No, there is only one final entrance toplete this trial but there may be multiple golden keys to be found." Ji Yuanughed.

    Ling Feiyue returned a perplexed look at Ji Yuan. "Why so? I don''t understand."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan said slowly. "This is only just my guess. Thest part of this trial will be much more difficult and is the real trial. Therefore there should be multiple entrances here to test the cultivators but at the same time, the trial is designed to weed out the weak from entering the final trial. Or else why will there be a seventh rank profound deste beast guarding the entrance to the uberbyrinth? The purpose is very clear and that is to defer the weak from entering."

    Feng Minyue nodded slowly as she thought; maybe I''ve wronged him. He isn''t a simpleton after all¡­

    Ji Yuan saw her eyes looking at him and he was actually thinking. "Maybe she saw through me and probably thinks that I am a simpleton. All my good impressions are wiped out now¡­"

    He shrugged his shoulder with a look of disappointment as he muttered. "Let''s go. We are only wasting time here."

    As Ji Yuan walked to the first passage, the maidens behind him quietly followed him.

    The new passage in the uberbyrinth was not any different from the nightmarebyrinth. However Ji Yuan was cautious as he moved in an unhurried pace.

    As he walked, he took out a wine gourd and was sipping from it.

    "You are not sharing it?" Feng Minyue suddenly said from behind him as she raised her nose to sniff. "This is really good wine."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. This was indeed a good wine because he had spent all his spirit stones to obtain this wine just before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Other than appreciating beauties, he appreciated good wines as well.

    "This wine is a little strong for you, even if you are a great saintess." He said.

    Ling Feiyue nodded. "It is a seventy percent alcohol wine and is an extremely powerful brew. Even if you are a golden celestial, you may not be able to purge it from your body in time and you will be drunk in no time."

    "The name of this wine is the Dangerous Liaisons Wine. I won''t suggest for you to touch it even if you are a good drinker or however tempting it may look like." Little Princess nodded.

    Shui Xisi giggled. "Or unless you want to be taken advantage by this lecherous Ji Yuan."

    Feng Minyue smiled gently. "I am always a good drinker. Please do not underestimate me." With that she had grabbed Ji Yuan''s wine gourd and drunk from it.

    This shocked Ji Yuan because he was used to drink himself silly with his drinking brothers and he knew that this wine was really strong. Thest time that he had drunk from it was 300 years ago and he had got himself into trouble with an encounter with Little Princess.

    Feng Minyue slowly returned the wine gourd to Ji Yuan and smiled. "This is nothing at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He took a long look at her and waited for her to show signs of drunkenness.

    But to his astonishment, Feng Minyue merely chuckled. "What? Are you expecting something to happen? I have been drinking strong wines since I was thirteen. Do you really think that I will be drunk just like this?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "You''re definitely not drunk¡­"

    "Naturally I am not drunk." Feng Minyue hummed coldly. "When I was a young maiden of twenty-five, my mother consort used to warn me that I cannot get married if I continued to drink better than any men. She used to say that no men will like to marry a drunkard. Do you think that this is the most ridiculous thing to say?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes slowly¡­

    And so did the other four maidens¡­

    "Who wants to marry a man? If he doesn''t love me because I drink then he isn''t someone who is suitable for me. Moreover, do I even need a man when I''ve already cultivated as a great saintess now? All men are lecherous. Do you agree with me?" Feng Minyueughed softly.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he replied. "Actually, I am now thinking that you''re drunk now¡­"

    "She is definitely drunk¡­" Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi said at the same time.

    Little Princess shook her head. "Ji Yuan, what have you done? You have made her drunk¡­"

    "I am not drunk." Feng Minyue protested as she pointed her fingers at Ji Yuan. "Do you really think I will be drunk? My mind of state is clear!"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly. "You''re definitely very drunk now because no drunken person will ever im that they are not drunk¡­"

    Feng Minyue suddenly muttered to Ji Yuan with flushed countenance. "Ji Yuan, do you think that I am beautiful or not?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned by her sudden question¡­

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly. "She is really very drunk now¡­"

 Chapter 239 The Uber Labyrinth (3)

    Ji Yuan muttered. "The wines of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are stronger than you think. Even the strongest cultivators in my fraternity can''t take this dangerous wine that I am drinking."

    This Dangerous Liaisons Wine was not only intoxicating but it could also cause delusions, even cause the cultivator to lose all their inhibitions and even lost their surrounding senses as well.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had enjoyed this wine was because he was a heavy drinker in the past and had often drunk himself silly to forget over the past experiences quickly.

    But the main reason why he was sipping this wine earlier was because he was secretly hatching a plot.

    What if he had chosen the wrong passage after all?

    Then he would lose all his face in front of these maidens!

    And his qualifications to lead would be blown by the wind!

    But what if he was a little drunk and his judgment had failed because of that?

    At the very least, he could sweep his failure under the carpet andughed it off away with a haha.

    That wasme but this would work.

    Because the stakes were high because there were five maidens with him now and not one.

    He was a lone fighter in front of five lofty saintesses!

    He had to conquer them all with his brilliant and awesomeness.

    Yes, that was his n.

    Screw the trial!

    The trial was not as important as impressing the maidens!

    Although Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were all his women now but a true man conquers his women into total submission and tamed them with his awesomeness.

    Who wants to be a hero when you can get all the beautiful maidens?

    Corrections! He corrected himself. He did not want all the beautiful maidens. He only wants to conquer the maidens of his heart.

    Just as Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin and thinking that Feng Minyue was really drunk because it was obviously that she had lost her usual rational self; she was muttering about her child hood, her mother consort and even how good she was in drinking now...

    All of a sudden his thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Feng Minyue who had suddenly shed into his embrace as she looked up to him before she muttered softly. "So am I beautiful or not? Do you like me, Ji Yuan? If you do not like me then why do you keep looking at me? Or are you just a lecherous man? Ji Yuan, tell me truthfully¡­"

    Ji Yuan was stunned by her questions: ¡­

    Even the other four maidens were also shocked and stunned by what they had heard: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly and even Shui Xisi could not believe what she was hearing.

    "Tell me Ji Yuan. Or are you not man enough to admit to your guts? Or have you no guts?" Feng Minyue muttered softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I would have no guts? I am not man enough?!

    Ji Yuan''s undying fighting spirit was now aroused!!!

    Xiang Li who was enjoying the entire show in Ji Yuan''s soul sea had suddenly ceased her yful giggles and she was gulping. "Oh no¡­big brother''s spirits seems to be stirring with fire¡­calm down big brother¡­"

    But Ji Yuan''s spirit was taunted by the heavenly fire of his manly pride as his spirit and soul merged within him to protest strongly: I AM A TRUE MAN, A MAN AMONG THE MEN!!!

    Just as Xiang Li was covering her face and expecting the worse to happen, Ji Yuan had suddenly caught hold of Feng Minyue''s by her shoulders to say. "Maiden Feng, you are really drunk now. Why don''t you get a little rest first? We can wait for you to recover."

    Not only was Xiang Li stunned by Ji Yuan''s rational words, the other four maidens were also stunned as well.

    Although Ji Yuan''s spirit and soul were protesting strongly but Ji Yuan''s mind had triumphed over his irrational sense and he had calmed himself down at thest minute.

    Although he had calmed himself down, he was pping himself hard now. Or at least his Spirit and Soul were now pping his Mind now;<sub> </sub>

    Stupid Ji Yuan! Why didn''t you admit that you like her as well?

    You have lost the chance to take her now!

    His Mind was protesting weakly. "She isn''t an ordinary saintess and she is really drunk. Show her a little respect. This is all my fault. I shouldn''t have taken out this dangerous wine¡­"

    Stupid!

    Idiot!

    Ji Yuan had a straight face as he calmly said to the other four maidens. "You maidens don''t mind taking her off me? Let her calm down for an hour or two. She didn''t take a lot of sip so it will pass quickly."

    Although he was saying so and looking at the four maidens, the corners of his eyes were looking down at Feng Minyue''s bosoms and he was enjoying the sensual softness of her body.

    A wondrous fragrance had also filled him because Feng Minyue was also known as Fragrance Princess and her scents were really wonderful to sniff. It was especially so for Ji Yuan who had an extremely sharp sense of smell.

    As the four maidens took Feng Minyue to one side despite her protests, they all had a perplexed look.

    It was because they could not believe that Ji Yuan did not use the opportunity to fondle Feng Minyue or to take advantage of her.

    He was really a gentleman of the sword!

    Suddenly their respect for Ji Yuan had rose to a new peak!

    Even Xiang Li was looking at Ji Yuan with a new respect because she was stunned by Ji Yuan''s willpower. "I so weak in willpowerpared to my Big Brother¡­sobs, sobs¡­"

    Feng Minyue was still muttering. "Do you like me Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan weakly looked in Feng Minyue''s direction as he said silently; I do like you but not in front of them or I''ll be screwedter. Keep your calm Ji Yuan¡­

    He said coolly to his party. "I am going to this side for a while."

    As he walked over and pretending not to look at Feng Minyue, he was invisibly pping himself hard and even imagining kicking himself as hemented silently; Ji Yuan, why are you so stupid to give up such a good opportunity to know whether she likes you or not. Such a good maiden¡­it is so wasted!

    And he really made a swift kick but of course it was not directed at himself but at a wall.

    He kicked it so hard that there was a loud kicking sound against the wall.

    All of a sudden the wall moved noisily to reveal a hidden passage with a golden shimmering portal!

    Not only was he stunned but the other four maidens were also stunned by the noisymotion caused by the walls moving.

    "What is happening?"

    "Did the wall just move?"

    "Did Ji Yuan find something?"

    "Ji Yuan has found a portal¡­"

    "He is so good in finding secret passages and portals¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped when she saw the golden shimmering portal. "Ji Yuan seems to have found the location of the golden keys."

    Even Ji Yuan was stunned. It was because the secret passage''s pattern was unlike the silver portals and was too inconspicuous.

    Moreover it was too near to the start of the uberbyrinth and many of the cultivators would have missed itpletely.

    But he coolly turned to grin at the maidens. "I''ve thought that something seems amiss here and had kicked it to investigate. And it turns up that I''m right."

    The image of Ji Yuan in the hearts of Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were suddenly very big and overwhelming, causing them to look with great sentiments in his direction as they thought how wonderful it was to have him as their man¡­

    Ji Yuanughed. "Why are you all looking at me in this manner? Don''t worship me. I will feel shy. Haha¡­"

    Even Xiang Li was looking at Ji Yuan with great idtry¡­

 Chapter 240 The Uber Labyrinth (4)

    The chamber that held the golden key was the sameyout as the silver key.

    After quickly retrieving the golden key, Ji Yuan and his party quickly exited the chamber.

    After an hour, Feng Minyue seemed to be somber and she was flushing. As she did not drink a lot, she seemed to remember how she had lost her inhibitions and was really careless with her words earlier.

    All the other four maidens knew how awkward that Feng Minyue must be feeling so they did not tease her at all.

    Everyone was just staring at one another, not knowing what to do.

    Finding the golden key was supposed to be a happy thing but right now, none of them had the mood to celebrate over their find.

    This golden key was the only way toplete the trial and without it, it was pointless even if they could find thepletion point of the uberbyrinth.

    With this golden key, they had already won half the battle.

    But still, no one was smiling.

    All the maidens were looking at Ji Yuan seemingly for him to get everyone out of this awkward predicament.

    Ji Yuan knew that they were all waiting for him to say something first.

    He blinked with his eyes before he held up the golden key. "Why is this key with me?"

    All the maidens: ???

    "Is this the golden key?" Ji Yuan pretended to be astonished. "Why is this golden key in my hand now?"

    "Are you alright, my lord?" Bai Qianfeng asked anxiously.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin with a great perplexed look. "That is weird. I can''t seem to recall anything earlier."

    All the maidens: ???

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "You have found the secret portal that held the golden key and had even retrieved it just a moment ago. How can you possibly forgotten about this?"

    Ji Yuan scratched his head, "Did I? But I don''t remember anything?"

    Little Princess gasped softly as she pped her hands. "That must be it. He must be drunk as well! Sisters, you may not know it but Ji Yuan tends to forget things when he was drunk."

    She had a light flush before she said. "300 years ago, he was also drunk¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly and this awkwardness was not a pretense¡­

    He remembered what had happened 300 years ago¡­

    Well, he had forgotten most of the details and had only kept the vivid details of him riding Little Princess because that was the ultimate humiliation to his soul¡­

    But thene to think of that, he was actually enjoying himself¡­

    When he had thought of that, he was almost drooling and at the same time, he had remembered peeking below Feng Minyue''s bodice. This caused him to really drool naturally.

    Shui Xisi gasped. "He is drooling¡­is he alright?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng panicky surrounded Ji Yuan to check if he was alright.

    "My lord, are you alright?"

    "Ji Yuan, you seem to be in a daze¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly replied. "I think this must be the aftermath of my drunkenness. I really can''t remember anything¡­"

    Xiang Li raised her fingers in his soul sea to remind him. "Big Brother, your soul is getting impure¡­"

    "Shut up Xiang Li. This is an honest lie." Ji Yuan protested immediately.

    "An honest lie?!" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "Yea. You don''t understand."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan returned his attention to the three maidens and said weakly. "Never mind. At least we have got the golden key now. So let''s go."

    Then heughed jovially as he marched off. "How did we get so lucky?"

    Feng Minyue was quietly looking at Ji Yuan''s back and was sighing softly. She just did not understand Ji Yuan and did not know if he was faking or not.

    She could only mutter softly. "Let''s hope that he is really drunk or I need to dig a hole to dig¡­"

    As Ji Yuan walked off, he kept muttering as he stared at the golden key in his hand. "What just happen just now?"

    He was naturally pretending of course.

    The other maidens began to follow him slowly.

    Feng Minyue was thest to follow and she had a perplexed look as she turned to look at Shui Xisi.

    Sisi (Shui Xisi) shrugged her shoulders as though she was saying. "I don''t know."

    But secretly Sisi was sighing in her heart; he is only pretending to be drunk¡­

    Although she had no proof and she looked dumb but most of the time, she had only pretended to be dumb. She may not be as smart as her sister Jiajia but she still had the smart level of intelligence to wander around the Deste Celestial Fraternity on her own without getting yed by the others.

    She was actually thinking; around Ji Yuan, I seem to be getting stupider every day¡­

    -

    -

    -

    It was now another two days in the uberbyrinth.

    Along the way they had encountered several traps and many fearsome monsters that roamed the passages of the uberbyrinth.

    The deste monsters that were in this ce were naturally more powerful than the nightmarebyrinth.

    But Ji Yuan and his party of five were all great saints and great saintesses of the highest level.

    They were actually more fearsome than the most powerful deste monster here.

    What was terrifying to the others was actually no kick to them.

    It was truly overkill on their part.

    Moreover there was a powerful seventh rank profound beast that was following Bai Qianfeng.

    This ''Yuanyuan'' was definitely not friendly to Ji Yuan especially when he tried to fondle Bai Qianfeng''s butt on the sly, despite that her name was inspired after him.

    Ji Yuan cursed Yuanyuan silently; one of these days, I will barbeque you over the fire once and for all¡­

    They did not encounter any other cultivators in the ce so they began to wonder if the ce was really so vast that it would make any encounters hard. At least they could remember that there were three other cultivators that were with them before they had entered the uberbyrinth.

    They were all a party of expert cultivators here.

    Once they had the golden key, they began to move rapidly through the uberbyrinth because there was actually no need to find any hidden golden keys anymore.

    And finally they had found arge cavern that seemed to be the end of the uberbyrinth because there were three shimmering portals that were in front of them and of course a ck stele.

    These three portals all looked alike so there was no clue which one was the way toplete the trial without touching the ck stele.

    They had to firstplete the trial first by touching the ck stele firs; finding the way here was one thing but oveing the final trial was another.

    And the final trial was a gigantic stone giant that stood in their way.

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "This is actually the final trial?"<sub> </sub>

    The other maidens were also startled.

    It was because this gigantic stone giant seemed to beposed of golden celestium, the hardest material in the Celestial Realm.

    Although golden celestiums are not actually unbreakable and was harder than diamonds but cultivators with their great profound strength that are armed with the heavenly relics of the divine swords will be able to damage it.

    However there was a problem now¡­

    This gigantic giant had profound animus radiating from around it!

    Now that was a different thing.

    Profound animus or profound aura could only be emitted by living beings to envelop them, offering them protection against hits by condensing the field around the cultivator into an invisible barrier.

    That is why defensive cultivators with powerful profound animus are like invincible tanks and greatly feared. Against this type of cultivators, there is no way to instant kill them without weakening their profound aura first.

    And there is another thing about profound animus; it can also make the flesh as hard as steel even if the profound animus is seemingly bypassed.

    Golden celestiums are already hard enough and it only takes a little profound animus to make golden celestiums to be invincible.

    Even Ji Yuan with little celestial knowledge knows about this because many defensive arrays make use of celestiums and heavenly relics to erect a barrier.

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly. "What rank is this monster?"

    Bai Qianfeng sighed softly. "Maybe an epic deste monster¡­"

    Ling Feiyue said. "We can actually win by wits instead."

    "Oh?" Everyone looked to Ling Feiyue to look at her curiously.

    Ji Yuan grinned. When did my Feiyue be so smart all of a sudden?

    Ling Feiyue chuckled as she exined. "Look at its size. It is not only massive but it also looks clumsy. All we need to do is to run past it, touch the ck stele and we can goodbye to this ce!"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Feiyue, I totally agree with you. So let''s do it¡­"

    "I am not deaf." A powerful resounding and deep voice from the gigantic stone monster interrupted Ji Yuan, startling everyone.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at the gigantic stone monster with disbelief. "You are a talking monster?!"

    All the five maidens were also startled as they all brandished their divine swords.

    The gigantic stone monster said calmly. "I am the master of this trial. All of you here are not any ordinary cultivators and are all armed with a divine sword. Impressive but I will advise that you put away your swords first because I am stronger than what you think."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "We thought that our objective is to defeat you to reach the portals. So if there is a peaceful way toplete this trial then I am of all ears."

    The gigantic stone monster roared withughter. "Naturally there is but you have to answer my question first."

    "What? A riddle? Then I''m screwed." Ji Yuan muttered weakly.

    Then he turned to look at Ling Feiyue. "Didn''t you say that we can use our wits toplete the trial? You''re right. We do have to use our wits now. Feiyue, why don''t you try to answer his question instead."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    The gigantic giant resounded deeply. "If you can answer my question then I shall let you pass. Why do you cultivate at all?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she answered. "Isn''t that an easy answer? We cultivate in order to ascend to the Immortal Realm, to be freed of our mortal bodies!"

    The gigantic giant said. "The desires in your heart are heavy. You do not practice what you have preached."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "If I do not practice what I have preached, I wouldn''t be a great saintess now." Ling Feiyue was clearly offended by the gigantic giant. "I am not convinced that this isn''t the answer¡­"

    "You have desecrated my holy ground with this man here. Do you want me to spell it out?" The gigantic interrupted her.

    There was a flush on Ling Feiyue''s countenance and she had immediately kept quiet.

    All the other four maidens were also flushing lightly as they recalled the white stuff that they had seen on Ling Feiyue.

    But because they did not want to embarrass her, they pretended that they did not know anything about it at all.

    They were all thinking; this question is actually quite easy to answer but it has be so difficult to answer now¡­

    "All of you only have one chance to answer. Next." The gigantic giant said.

    "We cultivate to be holy¡­"

    "WRONG!"

    "We cultivate to be one with the heavens and the earth¡­"

    "WRONG!"

    Bai Qianfeng began to grow irritated. "Do I even need to cultivate? Do you know who I am? I am an¡­"

    "WRONG!"

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "I haven''t even finish spoken¡­"

    "WRONG!"

    "So that we can attain long life?"

    "WRONG!"

    "WRONG!"

    "Now this is yourst chance now."

    Ji Yuan inhaled slowly as he muttered weakly. "Why are you all looking at me like this? It is not like I will answer it correctly. My state of divinity is the lowest in the party."

    Ling Feiyue muttered. "Ji Yuan will never be able to answer the question¡­"

    Little Princess was infuriated. "This stupid trial master is insulting my years of cultivation¡­"

    Feng Minyue had a perplexed look on her. "I will actually get the answer wrong?"

    Shui Xisi was also upset and she was shouting softly. "Let''s kill this trial master and we can get pass him¡­"

    Ji Yuan said weakly. "Actually I know nothing about cultivation. I am a Celestial, born in the Celestial Realm. The mortals in the lower realm have to cultivate because their life span is so short. Well, many Celestials are struck at the lower realm levels too but this question has never urred to me before¡­"

    He sighed. "But if you want to know the answer then I can only say I am cultivating now because I want to protect all my love ones and I have to be stronger than my enemies. I know that this isn''t a righteous answer but it is meaningless for me if I cannot protect my women."

    Xiang Li nodded slowly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea¡­

    The gigantic giant was silent for a while before he resounded. "The true cultivator will follow his righteous heart. You have passed the trial now. Go touch the ck stele and go im your rewards."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "I have passed the trial?"

    Not only was Ji Yuan astonished but all the five maidens were also astonished.

    The gigantic giant said. "There is no right or wrong answer to this question but can you answer the question that is in your dao heart. Your dao heart did not lie at all. You only want to protect your women so you have passed."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes awkwardly as he looked at the five maidens who were all looking at him with a flush countenance.

    The maidens were thinking; Ji Yuan only want to protect his women¡­

 Chapter 241 Rewards & Exiting The 2nd Level

    One by one Ji Yuan and his party had entered the portal to the third level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Before they had entered the portal to im their rewards and to move forward to the next level, Ji Yuan bade everyone good bye first.

    "Maybe we won''t get to see each other again in the next level." Ji Yuan muttered.

    All the maidens were inhaling mncholy and they secretly hoped that they would be able to meet in the same ce again.

    Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were all hoping that Xiang Li''s magic would work once more and that they would be able to meet again on the third levelter¡­

    Ling Feiyue was really praying hard silently; please let us be together¡­

    Little Princess was staring nkly¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was sighing unhappily; there was no promise that that they would meet again on the third level too. So she was also hoping that they would meet and not be separated.

    Shui Xisi totally did not want to be separated from Ji Yuan even though she did not have an official rtionship with Ji Yuan. She preferred to hide her love for Ji Yuan in secret from the others. That was why she had entered the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth on her own and that was with great sadness in her heart. However she was soon delighted when the first person that she had seen inside was actually Ji Yuan¡­

    Feng Minyue had a perplexed look on her face. She was lucky to meet Ji Yuan again on the second level but there was no promise if she could meet him on the third level. Why was she missing him all of a sudden?

    She did not want to join his party in the first ce¡­

    But now when it was time for her to leave his party, there was a lingering thought and hesitation in her heart.

    Is not because of him but because I am a friend of Sisi¡­

    But I am actually not close to Sisi at all before the trial starts¡­

    Ji Yuan also had a reluctant look as he looked at the five maidens but he had no wish to check with Xiang Li if she was about to reunite everyone together again.

    It was because he did not want to lose Xiang Li either.

    He had remembered how Xiang Li''s previous mistress had lost her¡­

    So with a soft sigh, he entered into the shimmering portal that led to the third level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    There were barely any farewells.

    Behind him, the maidens were sighing regretfully that the time was so short for this trial.

    Even though Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had been rebuking Ji Yuan for wasting plenty of time but they were actually secretly pleased.

    Now they were cursing him silently; why Ji Yuan is so good with the trials¡­can he not be so good¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan soon found himself in a ck spatial space.

    The trial voice said to him. "You are the first toplete this trial. Hence, a reward shall be granted to you and it will be a good one."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "So what is my reward then? Haha."

    "You can have a choice of three profound treasures. A heaven-step heavenly relic that can be refined into heaven-step divine sword, a rare celestial herb or a random heaven-step artefact."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "The rewards are actually some?"

    The trial voice: ¡­

    "You don''t look like a very rich cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You can''t base your judgment of me with my mere clothing alone." He immediately protested.

    To prove his point, Ji Yuan unsheathed his immortal-step divine sword as he grinned. "Look! Do I look like a poor chap to you?"

    The trial voice: ¡­

    "Do I need your heaven-step heavenly relic when I already have an immortal-step divine sword? Haha. You should give me a better reward than this." Ji Yuanughed.

    "That is right! You should give Big Brother a better reward than this!" Xiang Li had suddenly appeared as she raised her infuriated fist.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Who told you toe out?" He frowned. "Don''t you know that you''re not supposed to be out when there are others around?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "We are in the spatial space and there is no one here. Does the trial master counts?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "Of course he counts even though he is a spirit entity¡­"

    "You are¡­Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er?" The trial voice appeared to be startled and he was even stammering.

    Xiang Liughed and her chuckle was filled with delights. "I''m now Fairy Xiang Li and I am my master most useless spirit entity. How did you know me? I can''t remember you."

    The trial voice sighed deeply. "Of course you won''t be able to remember me."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "You know Xiang Li?"

    The trial voice answered after a long silence. "I can see that you really don''t need anything at all. After all, you have already possesses the greatest treasure that one can have¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan interrupted immediately. "Hey, this is not an excuse for not giving me my due reward. This is a littleme, you know."

    The trial voiceughed. "I will give you something that you will like."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "What if I don''t like it? Then will you give me somepensation?"

    The trial voice: ¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling with delight as she listened to Ji Yuan; she remembered how she had been so amused by her Big Brother when they had first met that she followed him willingly. Her Big Brother was always greedy for the best advantage and as long as he was alone, he was totally shameless when he was demanding his rewards.

    "Your immortal-step divine sword is a peaked celestial-step divine sword and it has the potential to be a saint-step divine sword." The trial voice said slowly.

    "Haha." Ji Yuan chuckled. "Is it even possible?"

    Saint-step divine swords are godly divine swords and are the most ss of divine swords.

    "Your immortal-step divine sword almost had the chance to be a saint-step divine sword¡­" The trial voice said slowly and his voice seemed to linger around Xiang Li. "But something stopped it from bing a full saint-step divine sword."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder slowly; his half-step celestial step divine sword had suddenly be an immortal-step divine sword when he was fighting an epic eighth rank deste monster and he had even acquired a sword spirit¡­

    He sighed slowly; he knew that it was all due to Xiang Li¡­

    If Xiang Li had vanished that day then his immortal-step divine sword may be a saint-step divine sword. Is that what the trial spirit is referring to about?

    "Is it even possible? This is only the second level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth." Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    The trial voiceughed. "You will know very soon."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could see that there was a shimmering light on the des of his divine sword and he could feel the startling profound power of the divine sword coursing through his veins. He was startled that the profound power of the saint-step divine sword was actually doubled of a full step celestial sword!

    "This, this¡­" Ji Yuan was clearly stunned.

    "Now do you believe me?" The trial voice calmly said.

    But it was clear that the trial voice appeared to be many times older now.

    "Now go and fulfill your destiny."

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to say something, a bright light had banished him away and he soon found himself lying t on the ground.

    His entire body was aching because the instant the saint sword had appeared in his hand, it was also draining and taxing his body as a new divine harmony began to ur at the same time. But luckily, Ji Yuan is a peaked great saint and he could easily wield a saint-step divine sword.

    Just as he was shaking off his spinning headache and the aching of his body, he was suddenly aroused by panicky cries.

    "This is really Ji Yuan¡­"

    "He is really here¡­"

    "My lord¡­"

    Multiple gasps of delights were heard¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he saw several skirts and bared legs surrounded him¡­

    He was suddenly grinning now as he recognized Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue as they surrounded him.

    "We thought that he may not be able to be here¡­" Ling Feiyue was gasping with joy.

    "He is really here¡­" Feng Minyue was shaking her head with disbelief.

    While Ji Yuan was grinning, he was checking his soul sea and was relieved that Xiang Li was pping her hands inside his soul sea with great delight.

    He was secretly pleased.

    Xiang Li is still around¡­

    Heughed as he took out the Mirror of Telepathy.

    Shui Xisi gave him a jovial kick. "I know that you''re handsome but this is not the time to view yourself in the mirror. Do you really care about your image so much?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "It isn''t that¡­"

    Then he activated his Mirror of Telepathy and said. "Wan''Er, are you there? Ji Yuan here. Did you manage to find your way out."

    There was a long silence as a sobbing voice began to greet him. "Great Hero Ji, it is really you. I''m alright now and have cleared the maze trial. Now I am on the second level of the trial now. What about you?"

    JI Yuan heaved a soft sigh of relief. "I am on the third level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth now. Haha."

    Wan''Er said quietly. "You''re pretty fast. I can never hope to catch up to you. Please take care and I hope that you can clear more trials. Don''t force yourself if it is too hard."

    Ji Yuan replied. "I will and take care of yourself too. And good luck."

    There was a long pause of silence before Wan''Er said quietly. "I hope you are able to return from here and¡­I like you."

    "This¡­" Ji Yuan was stunned.

    Before he could say more, Wan''Er seemed to have cut off themunications.

    All five of the maidens were startled as they did not expect that Ji Yuan would receive a deration of love from Wan''Er.

    Ji Yuan was left to blink his eyes while Xiang Li was drooling with romantic delights as she chuckled. "Marry her, marry her!"

 Chapter 242 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (1)

    Ji Yuan was now looking panicky at the five maidens that were around him.

    He had never expected for Mu Wan''Er to profess her like for him. In fact, he was thinking. "Oh holy shit, I am dead¡­"

    Why didn''t he warn Wan''Er that he was with the other five maidens now¡­

    He smiled weakly as he raised his hands in front of him panicky. "Listen, this isn''t what you think. She is only a fan-girl and I have thousands of fan-girls¡­"

    As the five maidens surrounded him, he added panicky. "This isn''t what you think it is. I have suddenly remembered that Wan''Er is trapped in a maze trial and I''m just wondering if my advice to her is helpful. I don''t want her blood to be on my hands for giving her the wrong piece of advice¡­"

    Ling Feiyueughed with a yful tease as she interrupted him. "Of course we know¡­"

    Little Princess chuckled as she caressed Ji Yuan''s face. "Why are you exining to us on such a trivial thing?"

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling, "My lord, you really have a kind heart."

    "I am so d to see that you''re here¡­" Shui Xisi said shyly as she flushed.

    Feng Minyue shyly averted her eyes. "It''s good to see you again. But what is going on? Howe we are in the same ce again?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that he had lied to Feng Minyue that they may have found a secret trial and he did not exactly tell her the whole truth about Xiang Li¡­

    However at this moment the five maidens were all looking with teasing and bashful eyes at Ji Yuan.

    When Ji Yuan saw that they were not upset at him, he began to chuckle. "Haha. So what are your rewards for the trial?"

    "And what are your rewards for your trial then?" Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi asked with a soft giggle at the same time.

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed aloud as he unsheathed his saint-step divine sword which was now glowing with a shimmering saintly light.

    "This¡­" All five maidens were startled at the same time. "You''ve got a saintly sword?! Is that even possible to obtain it as a reward for the second level?"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered. "It appears to be an upgrade for your immortal-step divine sword. This is your reward? Impossible!"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. Isn''t this impressive or not?"

    Xiang Liughed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "It is really very impressive, Big Brother!"

    "How did you manage to obtain a reward that can upgrade an immortal sword to a saint sword?" Little Princess asked curiously. "Can we have some exining please?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "That is because I am too awesome. Never in my wildest dream that I can dream of the day that I can finally obtain a saintly sword. Finally I am a true swordsman."<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly. "You are already a sword saint. Do you even need to be a lowly swordsman? That is a demotion."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I say true swordsman. I never say I am an ordinary swordsman."

    Bai Qianfeng teased Ji Yuan. "Even a true swordsman is but an ordinary swordsman."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "But you are now a super swordsman." Bai Qianfeng suddenly winked at him, copying from Little Princess her seductive mannerism.

    Ji Yuan waspletely mesmerized by Qianfeng''s mesmerizing wink as heughed. "Of course. I am a super swordsman now."

    "But how did you manage to obtain your saint-step divine sword?" Ling Feiyue was full of curiosity and she was echoing the thoughts of all the five maidens.

    "Come share with us!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Actually, I don''t really know. The trial spirit offered me three types of rewards to choose from but I don''t think the rewards are great enough so he offered to give me a surprise treasure and that is to upgrade my divine sword. Haha¡­"

    "You can actually bargain with the trial spirit?!" All five maidens were astonished.

    p Ji Yuanughed. "Actually there''s no harm trying¡­"</anda>

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know what had happened to cause his immortal-step divine sword to turn to a saint-step divine sword.

    He did not know that when Xiang Li had triggered her wish for Ji Yuan, she was already transforming Ji Yuan''s half-step celestial sword to an immortal-step divine sword.

    But just as Xiang Li was burning her essences to grant Ji Yuan''s wish to be stronger so that he could protect Jiajia, she could suddenly hear Ji Yuan''s heart saying to her; Xiang Li, you are my best friend. Come back please. Together we can have fun together. I have promised you this. This is my wish for you, to be best friend with you forever. All the other wishes are not my true wishes¡­

    But Big Brother, Xiang Li I am useless¡­

    It doesn''t matter if you''re useless. I''ve already known that you''re useless from day one. Haha.

    When Xiang Li had heard Ji Yuan''s voice, the half-tempered saintly sword was left iplete and Xiang Li''s profound power was retracted back instantly, leaving a peaked immortal-step divine sword behind.

    All the trial spirit of the second level did was to use his profound power to restore Xiang Li''s profound power to the peak in the unfinished immortal-step divine sword. Even then, the efforts had exhausted the trial spirit because no trial spirit can ever shape a saint-step divine sword because it cannot be found anywhere in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth or anywhere else in the Celestial Realm.

    No trial spirit except for only one and that is Xiang Li.

 Chapter 243 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (2)

    Ji Yuan was left alone on his own to practice with his saintly sword for a day while the five maidens watched him from afar.

    In just a single day, Ji Yuan was already handling his divine sword very well and he could produce his perfect divine harmony again.

    He was greatly startled by the profound power that he could disy through the saintly divine sword as it could enhanced his profound strength by many times.

    Awesome was the word to describe it.

    Ji Yuan was thinking. "Maybe I can even be the first person to ever attain my sect''s Major Heavens Sword to the Ninth Level. Hmm, but the ninth level is only a theoretical realm and is called the Sword of Destruction. No one has ever attained it before. Moreover it requires a saint-step divine sword. It must be a joke of my patriarch because he must have thought that no descendants will ever obtain a saint-step divine sword. Oh well, you joker. Today, one of your descendant prot¨¦g¨¦ and that is me, Ji Yuan, has a saint-step divine sword and who is also a peaked great saint has a chance now to prove that you are a joker to the rest of the Orthodox Sword Sect. Haha."

    As Ji Yuan was practicing with his divine sword, Ling Feiyue was saying quietly to the other maidens. "Ji Yuan has a destiny to fulfill as foretold by Diviner Mo Ming. We mustn''t be a hinder to him and we should move with haste through the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Little Princess nodded. "We have a lot of fun while we are with him. But it is time that we should get a little serious for now. Or we will only be hindering his destiny."

    "His destiny?" Feng Minyue asked curiously.

    Shui Xisi took over from Little Princess and nodded gently, "Diviner Mo Ming says that Ji Yuan is the prophesied great hero and he won''t be wrong. Even my Sister Feifei who is known as Jiajia to the rest of you also believes in the prophecy of Diviner Mo Ming."

    Feng Minyue gasped softly, "The mysterious Diviner Mo Ming who is known to have the most uncanny divine sense in the Celestial Realm. His renown is even known in the Nine Celestial Fraternity as well."

    Actually Feng Minyue was with Fan Yuqing when Divine Mo Ming had appeared to dere Ji Yuan a great hero. Although she was in the settlement but she was nonchnt as usual because she did not care of any gossips and did not pay attention to what was happening in the settlement.

    She was aware that the settlement was attacked but she also knew that it was stopped so she did not care for the details.

    "Ji Yuan is that great hero?"

    Feng Minyue was suddenly flushing because she really did not know that Ji Yuan was the guy that had saved the settlement. She had heard of a great hero that had happened but she did not care for the details or who he was because it did not concern her at all.

    Bai Qianfeng lowered her nces. "So no more scouting with Ji Yuan¡­"

    Shui Xisi was smiling bitterly; she did not even have a chance to scout with Ji Yuan yet!

    But she knew that they must be more serious as the second level of the trial had taken them quite some time to clear, mainly because they had wasted three weeks doing ''scouting''.

    She shrugged her shoulders as though she did not care but her voice was bitter. "Who wants to scout with him?"

    Ling Feiyue was trembling lightly as she held the tender fingers of Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng. "My dear sister saintesses, we must ensure that the plots of the Evil Cultivation Pce are foiled. Our other sisters are fighting equally hard in the settlement and we have no idea if they''re alright."

    Ling Feiyue and the others had no idea that the Evil Cultivation Pce had mostly been eradicated and they had no idea that the main threat was something else.

    But they have all trust Jiajia because her cultivation strength is stronger than anyone of them and she is a peaked great saintess.

    Even Bai Qianfeng is willing to trust Jiajia because she can tell that Jiajia is actually stronger than she looks. Moreover Jiajia is the daughter of her arch-nemesis the Great Goddess Alice. Therefore she may have several secret immortal treasures that she can use against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Qianfeng sighed softly. But her trust may be misced. Because¡­

    She turned to Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue to say in a nervous voice. "We must hurry. This enemy may not be an easy enemy and may be a terrifying one."

    Ling Feiyue was startled by the sudden nervous voice that was disyed by Bai Qianfeng. "Huh? What do you mean?"

    Bai Qianfeng sighed. "The Evil Cultivation Master is a deste immortal."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were startled. "We''re fighting against a deste immortal?"

    Feng Minyue could not help adding with a wry smile. "The deste immortals are restricted in the Celestial Realm. There is nothing to fear from them. My Sister Saintess Yuqing can easily take them down."

    Shui Xisi was smiling bitterly while muttering silently; I''ve better not let them know that I am Fan Yuqing''s little sister or it will be so awkward¡­

    She was actually not sure if Fan Yuqing is able to take down a deste immortal because she had only met this sister only a few times. Like Fan Yuqing, she is also peaked great saintess and she even has the saint-step divine sword of the Great Goddess Alice. However there is a seal on her divine sword that downgrade it temporary to an immortal-step divine sword because the appearance of a saintly sword will definitely shake the entire Celestial Realm.

    So it is never a good idea to show off her saintly sword.

    That was the reason why Shui Xisi had used mainly used her whip instead of her divine sword.

    However she did not know that Bai Qianfeng had already recognized the aura of her divine sword and knew that she is rted to the Great Goddess Alice.

    But for now, all five maidens were all on the same side and they had agreed that they must move more hastily.

    Feng Minyue nodded as she added quietly, "There are many geniuses in the Celestial Realm. Judging by the time that we had taken, more than 1/3 of the cultivators must have reached the third level already. Although 1/3 isn''t a lot but there are literally hundreds of thousands of them and the number of worlds will be much fewer. Therefore instead of meeting less and less cultivators, we will actually meet more and more cultivators. This is the cunning design of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Eventually we may even need to fight the other cultivators here. And these geniuses will be getting more and more aggressive at the higher level because they are the fittest of the survivors."

    -

    -

    -

    And Ji Yuan had suddenly found himself doing the scouting alone after he hadpleted his sword practice.

    He was cursing silently because all of a sudden none of the maidens were willing to apany him to scout anymore.

    What was going on?

    "Feiyue?"

    "Haha. Little Princess, shall we take a stroll together?"

    "Erm, Qianfeng. Let''s go!"

    "Sisi, will you like to go with me?"

    "Haha. Maybe Maiden Feng will like to go with me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Xiang Li was asking. "Big Brother. Why are all the maidens suddenly so cold toward you? Did you do something wrong?"

    Ji Yuan was left frowning. "Maybe they are unhappy that I have a saintly sword now? Did I show off too much?"

    But he was soon smiling bitterly. It was because actually he knew that they were not so petty and they had purposely allowed him to im the best rewards. So this may not be the reason¡­

    He was left rubbing his chin as he walked through the mountain trails.

    Yea, so what happens?<sub> </sub>

    Women are so difficult to guess. Their hearts are like the deepest oceans¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are a maiden too. So why don''t you tell me why they are so cold all of a sudden?"

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before she answered with a chuckle. "Isn''t that easy? They must be envious of Wan''Er!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he gasped all of a sudden as he pped his palms. "You don''t say¡­I think you may right. I''vepletely forgotten about Wan''Er. They are only pretending that they are not upset with what is happening with Wan''Er and I but actually they are secretly upset with me. Why didn''t I think of that? Xiang Li, you must be a genius."

    "Of course I am a genius, Big Brother!" Xiang Liughed.

    "I have decided to make you my love consultant from now onward to guide me in my rtionship. Haha."

    "Love consultant? What is that?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed softly. "Erm, you will be my special love consultant and this role is for you to dish out special advice to me on my love rtionships."

    Xiang Li frowned. "Isn''t that what I''ve been doing all this while?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes. "Yea right. I''ve forgotten that you are always giving me needless useless advices. Sorry I am going to take back my offer to you. You''re now dismissed from this role."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was startled to see hundreds of cultivators below the mountain; he was secretly pleased because it could only mean that there may be a trial nearby!

    He was feeling really very lucky now.

    But as he could not see any trial entrances and the visibility was blocked by many trees, he leapt down the mountain slope quickly so that he could greet the cultivators below so that he could gather some information before heading back to his party.

    "We are in luck, Xiang Li. I didn''t think that I can find our first trial of the third level so quickly. Haha."

    "I have heard that if one is unlucky in love, they will be lucky elsewhere." Xiang Li pointed out with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    In no time Ji Yuan was near to the hundreds of cultivators and he saw that they were all sharpening their weapons.

    He was quite startled as he wondered. "What are they doing? Are they having a fight or what?"

    But as he approached he saw a ck stele and he saw that many of the cultivators were entering into a gorge. All of a sudden he had spotted Jin Yilong among the cultivators that were going down the gorge and he was startled.

    Before he could touch the ck stele to understand the ck stele, a beautiful maiden in a revealing short shirt and mini skirt had suddenly approached him with a lovely smile. "This is a trial to kill the deste monsters below the gorge."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan answered her.

    Sheughed. "So what is your name?"

    "And what is your name too?" Ji Yuan asked.

    "Don''t you know that it is rude to ask ady''s name first?" Sheughed.

    Ji Yuan could not recognize which celestial fraternity that she was from and after a short pause, he answered. "I am Ji Yuan and you?"

    "I''m Chen Hanhan." Sheughed softly.

    Then with a solemn look at Ji Yuan, she said quietly. "This is the third level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and things are getting more dangerous. You should quickly find a party for your own benefit."

    Ji Yuan smiled. "I don''t need a party."

    Chen Hanhanughed softly. "Of course you need a party. Do you know why I am looking for you to party up instead of the others?"

    Ji Yuan replied. "No?"

    "Because you look more honest than anyone of them and I feel safe if I were to party with you." She added solemnly.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he rolled his eyes. This is too suspicious¡­

    "And you are handsome as well." She winked at Ji Yuan.

    "Haha. Is that so?" Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li was pping her hands, "Big Brother is really very handsome!"

    Chen Hanhan smiled as she winked at Ji Yuan. "So do you want to party with me then?"

    Ji Yuanughed for a short while before he ceased hisughter. "No."

    Chen Hanhan: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Big Brother, why did you reject her offer to party? Show her how impressive you are!"

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li inside his soul sea. "You can''t trust any beautiful maidens with lovely legs. The shorter their skirts, you can''t trust them."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuanughed. "She is only trying to scam me but her yacting is still light years away. Haha."

    Xiang Li asked with a perplexed look. "Surely not? She looks nice."

    Ji Yuan answered. "There are so many cultivators around. Why did she pick only me? That is a cause for rm already."

    "Didn''t she say that you''re handsome and you look more honest than any of the others?" Xiang Li asked curiously. "She is telling the truth!"

    "Trust me on this Xiang Li¡­"

    All of a sudden Chen Hanhan had a woeful look as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan. "You don''t want to party me because you think that I am a scammer? Is that what you are thinking secretly?"

    Ji Yuan did not know how to answer her because at this moment, he was staring down her bodice shirt and he was drooling.

    So he only managed a weak protest. "No. I already have a party nearby and they are waiting for me."

    Chen Hanhan lowered her nces shyly before she said. "Don''t you want to clear this trial? I can help you to clear this trial effortlessly. I can even help your party to clear this trial effortlessly. But it is only because of you. Because it is fate that we are able to meet here."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he thought; she is definitely a scammer and a lovely scammer. If she can clear this trial effortlessly then she won''t be here already.

 Chapter 244 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (3)

    Chen Hanhan repeated to Ji Yuan as she gave him a shy look. "We are fated to be able to meet in this ce."

    Ji Yuan did not reply to her but he was rubbing his chin. Not so fate am I right? You''re waiting just for me in this ce. Even though I have no idea what is your purpose or who are you but you definitely must have an ulterior motive.

    This maiden isn''t Jiajia and he did not know her at all. Moreover she was not from the Deste Celestial Fraternity so she can''t be his fan-girl.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, she looks honest to me."

    Ji Yuan replied to her weakly. "Any maiden that is beautiful to you is an honest maiden. We must exercise a little caution in this ce. After all, we only have one life. This maiden seems too eager to hook up with us."

    "But you''re always wrong when ites to thedies. So trust me on this." Xiang Li insisted.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "When did I ever been proven wrong? Didn''t I get all thedies at the end of the day?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "Without my help, do you think that you cany Sister Feiyue?"

    Ji Yuan returned a perplexed voice. "When did you help me with Feiyue?"

    "I help you with the four life-times story, remember?" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan groaned softly. "Please don''t remind me on this. Without your four life-times story, Feiyue will still fallen in love with me. Did you forget that she is my fan-girl? She likes my poem. Haha."

    Xiang Li shook her fist in the air and said. "Big Brother, you''repletely wrong on this. It is through my efforts that the two of you are even together¡­"

    But Ji Yuan hadpletely ignored Xiang Li in his soul sea as he said to Chen Hanhan. "Please leave."

    Chen Hanhan returned a woeful look. "I try to help you but you have actually turned me away? Don''t you want to pass the trial?"

    "I can pass the trial without any help." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Why are you so stubborn? Or are you sitting on a high horse and looking down on me just because I''m just a maiden?"

    She continued. "I am only trying to help you because you look like apletely honest guy."

    As she said, she had pulled her skirt tightly together to reveal her full curve bosoms through her tight skirt.

    At the same time she had purposely gave a kick to the ground, identally causing her short skirt to fly up, revealing her ck panties.

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly. He did not know whether to drool or to chase her away.

    Many of the nearby cultivators were nowmenting. "This man certainly looks arrogant. He can actually turn away such a lovely maiden away."

    "What is he thinking?"

    "Maybe he isn''t a man at all."

    "This maiden is truly beautiful¡­"

    "I wish that I am the one that she has approached¡­"

    "I wonder what she sees in him anyway¡­"

    "He''s just a pretty face and so skinny¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You are not only stubborn but you are a little conceited as well." Chen Hanhan finally concluded with a woeful look. She disyed a hurtful expression and it looked like she could burst into tears anytime.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately. "If you can clear the trial then why do you even need me at all?"

    Chen Hanhan gave him a perplexed look before she said coldly. "Because of this and you''re doubting me? I do know how to clear the trial but this is after all a battle trial and do you think that I am able to kill the deste beasts alone? Naturally I need a strong hand. Why do you think that I am asking you for?"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "This¡­"

    "I''m only giving you a chance because I''ve thought that you''re a humble and honest guy. I don''t feel so safe with the other cultivators and I''ve thought that you may be the right party for me. But in the end, I am so wrong. Instead of thanking me for giving you a chance, you have rejected my kind offer with such ungrateful eyes."

    Then she pointed at his clothing. "I don''t even despite you for being a poor cultivator. But I despise you for being a cultivator without any motivation to clear the trial."

    Ji Yuan said weakly. "Who says I don''t have any motivation to clear the trial? I can clear the trial on my own."

    "And how long do you need to take? With my help, you will be able to clear in no time at all!" Chen Hanhan insisted.

    p Ji Yuan said awkwardly. "How long I need to clear the trial is my business, don''t you think?"</anda>

    "That is why I say that you have no motivation to clear the trial and I''m proven right." Chen Hanhan rebuked him gently.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''ve a party and we need to party up to clear this trial together." Ji Yuan exined weakly.

    "Are you a man? Why do you need your temporary party when you already have me in your party now?" Chen Hanhan stared at him coldly.

    "They''re my permanent party. We go everywhere together. So far, we have cleared all the trials together." He exined with a softugh. "So they aren''t any temporary party¡­"

    "Liar!" Chen Hanhan hummed coldly. "There are no permanent parties in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Only temporary allies. And you can even im that you have partied up with them from level one? This is impossible and everyone knows it. I can see that you are not only an unmotivated cultivator but you''re also a dishonest cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why don''t you leave me alone then?" Ji Yuan said weakly as he thought; why didn''t she go away already?

    "If you party up with me then I am willing to give you a chance." Chen Hanhan said as she looked at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why is she so shameless¡­

    "I''m a rich cultivator. Do you really think that I will rob you or what? Why are you so afraid of partying up with me?" Chen Hanhan asked. "Or are you too shy around me?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said with a softugh. "I will be afraid? Haha. And I am never shy around thedies."

 Chapter 245 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (4)

    Ji Yuanughed. "If you think that I will be afraid then you must be mistaken."

    "Then why don''t you party with me?" Chen Hanhan hummed softly as she folded her arms.

    "It isn''t about afraid but I don''t trust you at all." Ji Yuan said frankly. "After all, this is the first time that we''ve met."

    Chen Hanhan: ¡­

    Xiang Li began to protest immediately. "But Big Brother, she looks so honest¡­"

    "Yea, yea because she is to your taste." Ji Yuan interrupted her immediately.

    Xiang Li began to giggle silly and used her hands to cover her face. "Big Brother really knows how to make me feel shy."

    ? Ji Yuan frowned. "Shy my foot. You''re never shy when ites to this sort of thing."

    Xiang Li giggled jovially, not caring for Ji Yuan''s opinion as usual.

    It was their typical day of shooting at each other while expressing their own different opinions.

    Chen Hanhan had a stunned expression; she really cannot believe that this innocent looking cultivator would turn up to be such a hard nut to crack.

    She cursed silently; I don''t believe that I won''t be able to crack your two nuts¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to walk away, Chen Hanhan took out a golden pearl and she was chuckling all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Why are youughing and what is that?"

    Chen Hanhan exined. "This is a profound treasure to determine your skeleton age. It seems that you''re quite an old cultivator already. Twice my age."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Chen Hanhan smiled. "And I am already a golden supremacy. It seems that your cultivation level is a little slower than me."

    "How do you know that I am not a saint?" Ji Yuan smiled awkward.

    When Chen Hanhan saw the awkward smile that was on Ji Yuan, she immediately concluded that he was definitely not a saint. It was because he looked as poor as hell.

    Although there were many cultivators that had a rugged look, Ji Yuan looked particr rugged because he was more at home in the rugged mountains than the other cultivators that cultivate in their beautiful pces.

    But no matter how rugged a cultivator was, as long as they were rich enough, they could afford to spend several hundreds of spirit stones on a decent robe that could always appear to be crispy.

    The maidens in Ji Yuan''s party were all wearing their robes and dress worth several thousand if not tens of thousands of spirit stones.

    But Ji Yuan never had a proper cultivator''s robe because it would set him back several hundreds of spirit stones.

    Therefore with a single look, Chen Hanhan knew that Ji Yuan must be a poor cultivator and because he was poor, he must be trying to struggle with his cultivation.

    That was the reason why she had approached him because he was an ''easy'' target.

    But much to her astonishment, Ji Yuan did not fall for her feminine wiles.

    So she was now trying to deploy a new tactic now.

    "I am a golden supremacy while you are a lowly golden celestial. If I don''t help you, who will help you?" She began to smile.

    Ji Yuan patted his chest to say proudly. "Haha. I''m a great saint. Seventh realm peaked great saint!"

    Chen Hanhan was now holding onto her stomach as sheughed. "You''re too poor to be a saint while you are too young to be a peaked great saint. Why must men always like to boast in front of thedies?"

    Ji Yuan growled. "I am not boasting."

    "That is right! My brother is not boasting at all!" Xiang Li added in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Chen Hanhan sighed softly. "It seems that you are not a honest guy. I am so wrong about you!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He did not want to disy his saintly divine sword which could reveal himself as a peaked great saint in front of so many dozens of cultivators who were all looking in their direction.

    At the same time, his profound animus was weaker than most cultivators and he knew that if he were to disy his profound aura, he would be a joke of all the great saints¡­

    "Big Brother, why don''t you trust her? It is so unlike you." Xiang Li asked.

    Ji Yuan did not reply to Xiang Li.

    Actually when he had first met Jiajia, he actually did not trust her but had yed along with her. When he tried to touch her butt, he could tell that Jiajia was an inexperienced maiden and that her flushes were real. That was what got him really excited¡­

    But this Chen Hanhan, her flushes were all fakes and she could not fool his eyes.

    "Then what must I do to gain your trust?" Chen Hanhan offered a suggestion.<sub> </sub>

    "Nothing?" Ji Yuan smiled weakly. Although this maiden is a beautiful maiden but she has deep motives so he is cautious of her nefarious intentions.

    Xiang Li did not know what happened to Ji Yuan in the past. It was because of his overtly cautious behavior that caused him to flee from Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue in the past.

    It did not matter how beautiful they are because honey traps can be fatal.

    "What if I can prove to you that I can be trustworthy?" Chen Hanhan added with a wry smile.

    "How?" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    It was because he remained unconvinced.

    Chen Hanhan smiled. "Let me show you then."

    -

    -

    -

    In a short while time, Chen Hanhan had taken Ji Yuan to a deste spot where there was no one.

    And Ji Yuan was already banging her.

    Chen Hanhan was now flushing hotly as Ji Yuan had expertly held onto her tits and he was like a wild animal.

    She just could not believe how swift Ji Yuan''s hands were.

    Before the teasing had even started, Ji Yuan had already expertly aroused her and had pulled her panties down.

    She did not know that Ji Yuan was actually an experienced cultivator and he had plenty of practices recently.

    Xiang Li was holding her hands onto her face but she was peeking from the holes of her fingers. "Big Brother, this is too sinful¡­I feel so shy¡­"

    "Xiang Li, you''re distracting me¡­" Ji Yuan frowned.

    "Big Brother, I thought that you do not trust her?" Xiang Li asked curiously. "Then what are you doing now?"

    "I really don''t trust her but she has delivered herself to me so¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled. "Her moaning is so sensual¡­"

    "Shut up Xiang Li or I will bang you as well."

    Xiang Li was startled as hot flushed began to overwhelm her as she muttered silently. "Big Brother wants to bang me too¡­"

    In the past Xiang Li would not feel any hot flushes but now because of Ji Yuan, she was now able to gain a physical form and she was now a half-spirit.

    She resisted the urge to fly out of Ji Yuan''s soul sea and to materialize into her physical form. All of a sudden she had felt an urge to appear in front of Ji Yuan¡­

    Chen Hanhan was suddenly at a loss. She was an experienced swindler. Her purpose was to trick Ji Yuan and to rob him. He was an easy target. Moreover she had other conspirators that were trailing them¡­

    And one of them was her current cultivation partner.

    Before she could react, Ji Yuan was already riding her and she had green her cultivation partner¡­

    "What are you doing!?" All of a sudden three cultivators with swords had appeared in front of them.

    Chen Hanhan had turned ashen because one of the three cultivators was her cultivation partner.

    He was now extremely upset!

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he quickly covered himself. He literally was caught with his pants down!

    "Erm, who are you?" He asked.

    Chen Hanhan faked a woeful cry as she leapt into her cultivation partner embrace. "This cultivator, he has vited me¡­my lord, you must address my grievous for me¡­"

    But her cultivation partner pushed her away, "You are a little tramp!"

    Chen Hanhan was shocked as she gasped silently; aren''t we all on the same side?

    "I really didn''t know that he is so fast..."

    But he ignored her protests and turned to shout at Ji Yuan. "How dare you touch my woman!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "This is all a misunderstanding. I really didn''t know that she is your cultivation partner¡­"

 Chapter 246 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (5)

    Chen Hanhan was now staring in disbelief at her cultivation partner now.

    He had actually called her a little tramp even though he was the one that had suggested for her to seduce Ji Yuan.

    Their n was simple and that was to lure Ji Yuan to the wilderness where they could ambush him.

    Therefore Chen Hanhan had lured Ji Yuan into the wilderness.

    As she smiled at Ji Yuan and tried to flirt with him to dy him long enough so that her aplices would arrive to exhort him.

    If Ji Yuan valued his very own life then he would give up whatever treasures that he had found inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth to their group.

    Chen Hanhan was confident that she would be able to break off from Ji Yuan easily.

    But she had never expected for him to seize the initiative and when she had suddenly realized that Ji Yuan was undressing her, it was already toote as his hands were quick under his mesmerizing charm.

    And when she had tried to struggle free, she was herself powerless under his profound strength and was shocked.

    I can''t even move my body?

    Is he really a saint?

    In the meantime Ji Yuan was wondering; I may have wronged her¡­

    But he was soon frowning when he was caught with his pants down as he stared at the three cultivators that were in front of him.

    "This isn''t what you think." Ji Yuan said bitterly. "Sometimes the eyes cannot be trusted."

    Chen Hanhan: ¡­

    All three of the cultivators: ¡­

    They had all seen what Ji Yuan had done, obviously and he was now denying his act shamelessly.

    The leader of the three cultivators who was also Chen Hanhan''s cultivator partner said coldly. "What do you think we want? You dare to touch my woman. What iron guts do you have here. If you are smart enough, you will surrender your spatial ring and belt to us now."

    Chen Hanhan turned to Ji Yuan to say, "Lei Heng is a half-step saint. You''re not his match. Quickly do as he says before you have the chance to regret it."

    She did not know why she was suddenly dishing out advice to Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan merely said. "Is that so? Only a half-step saint. He should be cultivating to an initial saint behind closed door first instead of entering the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    "What an arrogant cultivator!" Lei Heng shouted angrily as he brandished his sword. "Let''s get him together and teach him a lesson that he will never again forget!"

    Chen Hanhan gasped. "Don''t kill him¡­"

    All of a sudden Lei Heng was flung with a mighty crash to the left and the other two cultivators were flung to the right.

    But Ji Yuan remained standing where he was.

    Chen Hanhan gasped as she stared at Ji Yuan''s back. She did not even see him move at all¡­

    She turned slowly to look at Lei Heng and the other two cultivators and saw that they had all been immobilized by a burning mark on their chests.

    Sword energies fingers¡­

    Did this Ji Yuan just strike down a saint and two other sixth realm golden supremacies with his mere fingers?!

    She really could not believe her eyes because when a golden celestial had attained the sixth and the seventh realm level, they could withstand plenty of punishments. Sword energies fingers just won''t work on high level cultivators anymore as their profound auras would automatically protect them against low level martial attacks.

    But he seemed to have struck them all down in a blink of an eye!

    This was impossible and there was a total disbelief on her countenance!

    She began to stammer weakly. "This¡­"

    Ji Yuan said without turning his back around. "You shouldn''t be in theirpany. Especially this man. No real man will ask their women to flirt with the other men."

    After saying that, he had walked off coolly while leaving a stunned Chen Hanhan behind; she had lost her body to this stranger that she had thought was an easy target and a fool. In the end, their ambush had not only failed and they seemed to have encountered a formidable cultivator who was pretending to act poor.

    Naturally she did not know that Ji Yuan was really a poor cultivator.

    She turned to look at the three cultivators who were now foaming and Lei Heng was literally begging her. "Hanhan, quickly help me to purge the nefarious sword energies out of my body. My blood is reversing and I will sustain internal injuries¡­"

    But Chen Hanhan said coldly. "So in your eyes, I am just a little tramp? But on ount of our past rtionship, I will still help you."

    There was a pleased look in Lei Han''s eyes as his body was trembling with great agony. "Help me¡­to purge quickly¡­"

    All of a sudden Chen Hanhan had pierced his body with her sword which caused him to cry out with great agony.

    "What are¡­you doing?!" Lei Han yelled aloud with great agony.

    "You are a saint so you won''t die if your vital organs are intact." Chen Hanhan hummed coldly as she turned around to walk away.

    "You¡­little tramp¡­you are¡­just¡­a¡­harlot¡­" Lie Heng began to curse her aloud from behind.

    All of a sudden Chen Hanhan had turned around to give him another two painful stabs. "Shut up or I''ll cut your throat. Even if you can close your wounds quickly but you can''t close your wound with a sword in the middle of your throat."

    Lei Han immediately shut up and he could only curse her with great silent bitterness as he watched her walked away.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had a grin as he walked back to the direction of his party.

    As he leapt on top of a cliff, he was startled by a gentle voice. "Great Hero Ji? Is really you?"

    He was so startled by the voice that he had almost tripped from the top as he turned to look at the direction of the gentle voice.

    A lovely maiden was standing below the cliff and she was blinking her eyes at Ji Yuan.

    It was Mu Wan''Er!

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he could not believe what he was seeing.

    "Wan''Er, it is you? Howe you are here?" Ji Yuan quickly leapt lightly down to where Mu Wan''Er was.

    "I¡­" Mu Wan''Er flushed as she looked with great shyness at him.

    As she looked at Ji Yuan, she quickly averted her head away as she replied. "I''ve just cleared the trial on the second level and I am now searching for a third level trial here. I didn''t expect to see you here."

    Ji Yuan continued to blink his eyes. "Same here¡­"

    Was it pure coincidence or was it due to Xiang Li?

    Xiang Li was giggling in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Big brother, are you going to marry her then? She is here in front of you."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Shut up Xiang Li¡­"

    He was left rubbing his chin as he wondered; Wan''Er had managed to catch up with them?

    Guess that it was because we have taken more than a month toplete the second level trials and that was why. We are reallygging behind¡­

    Mu Wan''Er was smiling shyly. "Great Hero Ji, since we are fortunate to meet again, shall we form a party together?"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Erm sure thing but there is one little problem though."

    "What is it?" Mu Wan''Er asked curiously.

    "I''ve already got a party." He began to smile bitterly.

    Mu Wan''Er looked a little disappointed¡­

    "But it is alright for you to join our party because you know them as well." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    "I know them as well?" Mu Wan''Er returned a perplexed look. "They are from my sect?"

    Ji Yuan really did not know how to exin to her so he frankly exined. "Actually they are Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Qianfeng, Sisi and Maiden Feng."

    Mu Wan''Er was startled. "How did you meet them?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "It is a long story to exin but I will let them do the exining to youter. Haha."

    Feiyue, I have passed the trouble of exining to you. Good luck with such a tough question! Hope you can pass!

    "Come. I will lead you to them. I just happen to find the trial entrance for this level and I''m now on my way to inform them." Ji Yuan quickly said.

    With that he had quickly grabbed hold of Mu Wan''Er as he shed up the cliff. "Let me pull you along. No point walking around the mountains when we can always fly up the mountains. Haha."

    Mu Wan''Er was startled that Ji Yuan''s lightless profound art would be so formidable and at the same time she was blushing because Ji Yuan was now holding onto her hands¡­

    When Ji Yuan had returned to his party, all five maidens were startled to see Mu Wan''Er with Ji Yuan.

    "Wan''Er you are here as well?"

    Wan''Er quickly pays a quick homage to all the saintesses as she exined. "I just happen to meet Great Hero Ji here¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled. "Well, don''t keep calling him Great Hero. He isn''t a great hero. Just call him Ji Yuan will do."

    Wan''Er looked at Ji Yuan as she smiled shyly. "Brother Ji."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    She had asked her to call him Ji Yuan and she had ended up calling him Brother Ji. This is really way too close for herfort.

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue were all smiling sweetly at Mu Wan''Er; it was because they had remembered that Wan''Er had confessed her feelings for Ji Yuan a while ago.

    "Tell you all a piece of good news." Ji Yuan quickly said as he sought to distract everyone.

    "I''ve found the trial entrance and this also seems to be an easy one." He joviallyughed. "We are in luck this time."

    "So fast?" Ling Feiyue was startled. "Where is it?"

    All the other four maidens were excited as well.

    Ji Yuanughed as he pointed at the direction where he had found the trial entrance. "It is in that direction over there¡­"

    All of a sudden a ck panties had dropped from Ji Yuan''s sleeves to the ground.

    All the maidens and Ji Yuan: ¡­

    <o>,m Ling Feiyue looked at Ji Yuan and Mu Wan''Er. "This belongs to who?"</o>

    Ji Yuan cursed himself silently; this time I am really screwed¡­

    Xiang Li giggled. "It belongs to that Maiden Chen Hanhan!"

    "Shut up Xiang Li and don''t you dare toe out of my soul sea. Pretend you are sleeping when they ask you toe out to be my witness." Ji Yuan quickly reminded her.

    Little Princess smiled bitterly. "It is not mine."

    "Not mine as well." Bai Qianfeng followed suit.

    Shui Xisi quickly protested. "How can it be mine?"

    Feng Minyue smiled weakly. "It is not mine as well!"

    Mu Wan''Er panicky said. "This doesn''t belong to me..."

    Ling Feiyue looked at Mu Wan''Er with a weak sigh. "We all know that it belongs to you¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er wanted to faint as she began to flush awkwardly. "No, this isn''t mine. Please trust me."

    Shui Xisi was kicking the dust on the ground. "He has already ridden her¡­" She was quite upset that Ji Yuan had not ridden her yet and that Wan''Er was ahead of her.

    Bai Qianfeng gave Ji Yuan and Wan''Er a nonchnt look. "Since the two of you are in a rtionship already, you may as well be together. I don''t mind."

    Little Princess began to smile. "I don''t mind either."

    Ji Yuan began to protest immediately. "Wait¡­wait! This is all a misunderstanding. Nothing has happened between the two of us. You can''t tarnish Wan''Er good reputation¡­"

    "Then what about me? This ck panties belong to me." A voice interrupted Ji Yuan and a lovely maiden was seen standing on top of the cliff overlooking to them.

    It was Chen Hanhan.

    When Ji Yuan saw her, he almost banged his head on the ground; now I am doubly screwed¡­

    "Ji Yuan! Who is she?!"

    "This ck panties really belong to her?"

    "Say something Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly said. "Listen all. It is really a misunderstanding¡­actually¡­"

    "Actually what?" Ling Feiyue demanded to know. "You can''t think of an excuse, am I right to say so?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; Feiyue knows me best¡­

    Xiang Li covered her face with her hands. "Big Brother, I think this time you are really screwed¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly answered. "Thanks for reminding me¡­"

 Chapter 247 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (6)

    Ling Feiyue and the other four maidens were now asking. "So who''s ck panties does this belongs to?"

    Even Mu Wan''Er was looking at Ji Yuan with shock when Chen Hanhan had suddenly appeared to dere that Ji Yuan had her personal belonging.

    Ji Yuan was now smiling weakly at everyone¡­

    He had slipped Chen Hanhan''s ck panties under his sleeve on the sly earlier instead of putting it into his spatial ring as it would alert Chen Hanhan immediately by triggering a profound signature.

    As he slipped the ck panties into his sleeves, he was soon interrupted by a group of cultivators and hadpletely forgotten about it.

    So when he was feeling so full of himself and was putting to the direction of the trial entrance, the ck panties had slipped and dropped to the ground.

    He could only mutter. "This is not what you think. The eyes can also mislead you."

    Ling Feiyue raised her thin lovely eyebrows and smiled coldly. "Do you care to exin about it? And who is she?"

    It was as though she was saying; if you are not going to exin it carefully then in the future, you''re not going to ride me anymore.

    "I''m Chen Hanhan, from the Eastern Sea Fraternity." Chen Hanhan announced her name and her celestial fraternity. She lifted her head proudly to add. "And I''m a sixth realm golden supremacy from the Minor Confluence Sect. The Minor Confluence Sect is naturally supported by the Major Confluence Sect!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to himself; Chen Hanhan, you''re making a great mistake. Do you know that even I dare not offend these maidens. They are all the leaders of the major celestial sects and are all great saintesses except for Wan''Er. They don''t care for your puny sect even if it may be a major celestial sect in your celestial fraternity. Even for me, I can''t digest them uppletely and can only go slow on them¡­"

    Chen Hanhan was actually trying to put on a brave front.

    She had followed Ji Yuan quietly and one of her best skills was her ability to track down another cultivator without being found out.

    She was quite disturbed when she saw another maiden had partied up with Ji Yuan and he had epted her into his party without any fuss.

    Why did this maiden seem to have a special treatment? She isn''t any prettier than me¡­

    But when she saw another group of maidens that Ji Yuan had approached to, she was stunned because they were all great beauties.

    He really has a party waiting for him¡­

    So when her ck panties had slipped from Ji Yuan''s sleeve, she had a flustered look and had misunderstood that Ji Yuan had an emotional attachment to her.

    The truth was Ji Yuan had a fetish of collecting just for the sake of collecting so that he could sniffter to remember the scentter before discarding it away.

    Ji Yuan had another hidden talent and that he could remember a million times more scents than anyone with his nose and he would never forget about it.

    Chen Hanhan repeated with trembling voice. "I¡­am¡­Chen¡­Hanhan¡­this belongs to me¡­"

    She had suddenly lost her confident and she was even trembling now.

    Little Princess looked at Ji Yuan with a seductive smile. "Is that the truth, my lord Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. The more seductive Little Princess was, the more dangerous was her mood. In fact once her mood was triggered, she was more dangerous to handle than Feiyue¡­

    He quickly turned to Xiang Li in his soul sea to say solemnly. "Listen up, Xiang Li. We have a life and death battleing up soon. If we don''t do our best and fight for our lives, we will be history!"

    Xiang Li had a perplexed look as she asked curiously. "What life and death battle? It is only a Chen Hanhan and she can''t defeat you for sure. Do we need to be afraid of her?"

    "Not her but from Feiyue, Sisi, Little Princess and Qianfeng. They are not easy to mess around and if we don''t give them a proper answer, we will be done for! It is a life and death battle for us!" Ji Yuan exined solemnly.

    "Are they such a threat? They are not going to kill you Big Brother¡­in fact, they love you so much in their hearts. I can feel their fondness for you and their love." Xiang Li began to giggle.

    She could actually feel their emotions and it was something that Ji Yuan did not know.

    To Ji Yuan, he was just assuming that Xiang Li was showing off her nonsense talks again.

    "If we give them the wrong answer, we will be quarantined by them and we will be forced to abide by a new social distancing rule! Do you know what this will mean for us? This will be the end of our fun dynasty! Do you want to see our fun end just like this?" Ji Yuan gravely said.

    "NOOO!" Xiang Li was shocked and stunned. "Big Brother, this is really a life and death battle!" She panicky added. "So what should we do? Do you have a solution for this?"

    "I do have a solution for this but I need your help Xiang Li." Ji Yuan calmly said. "Your Big Brother will always have a way to help my little sister Xiang Li to get out of our dark and gloomy fate. And of course me as well."

    "Need my help?" Xiang Li asked, not understanding.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan said coolly. "This is my n¡­"

    "My Lord! Ji Yuan! Please tell us who this ck panties belong to?" Everyone was pressing Ji Yuan for the answers now.

    Ji Yuan returned a wry smile before he said solemnly. "I do not want to lie to anyone anymore. Actually this personal belonging belongs to¡­"

    Xiang Li had suddenly appeared as she giggled. "It belongs to me!"

    She disyed a shy look as she covered her flustered face.

    "It belongs to Xiang Li?" All the maidens were suddenly relieved now except for one and that was Chen Hanhan.

    Chen Hanhan was doubled shocked. Did she just see a sentient spirit entity appear from the profound animus of this poor cultivator? Even a rich cultivator may not even own a sentient spirit entity¡­

    Her second shock was because her personal belonging was now being imed by this sentient spirit entity¡­

    "No, this spirit entity is lying! This ck panties belong to me!" Chen Hanhan protested weakly and her face had reddened. She had never imagined there would be a day that she would be fighting over her lingerie in public¡­

    Shui Xisi muttered. "Who is telling the truth? And how did you know her Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan exined. "She is part of a syndicate that tries to ambush me earlier but I was lucky to get out of there alive."

    Immediately all the maidens softened their stance as they began to lean against Ji Yuan to exin if he got any injuries.

    "My lord, are you alright?"

    "Are you hurt in any way?"

    "Do you have any internal injuries?"

    Ji Yuan and Xiang Li were secretly smiling with delight as they looked at each other as the maidens showed their concerns.

    I told you this will work, Xiang Li!

    His opponents were too weak. Even if there were ten of them, it would not be a problem for Ji Yuan to handle!

    "You are lying!" Chen Hanhan sobbed aloud. "You''re a man and a cultivator of the way. Why are you lying¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her. "Spirit entities do not lie." He added silently; I am not the one that lies to you. It is Xiang Li¡­

    Xiang Li raised her fists to say angrily. "Yea! Spirit entities do not lie at all!"

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes. Even though she knew that spirit entities cannot tell a lie as it will affect their soul and will even weaken them, affecting their manifestation since they had no physical body. But she had caught Xiang Li lying a few times already¡­

    So she did not know whether if she could believe Xiang Li¡­

    But she had decided to keep it quiet for now because Xiang Li was her best friend and her closest sister now¡­

    "Sister Qianfeng, you must believe me! Xiang Li is speaking the truth!" Xiang Li gave Bai Qianfeng a pitiful look as she imagined she would be forced to be on social distancing and the end of her fun dynasty with Ji Yuan.

    Before Qianfeng could reply to Xiang Li, Little Princess and Feiyue were alreadyforting Xiang Li. "Xiang Li, don''t cry. We believe in you. We all know that you have a physical body now and you are only trying new things. Sorry if we have misunderstood you or Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Yea, I''m only trying new things and Big Brother has been helping me." Xiang Li sniffed.

    Chen Hanhan burst out in tears as she turned around as she ran away. Her heart had been broken because no one was willing to believe her and she felt wronged in her heart.

    She could not believe that a spirit entity would tell such a tant lie and today she was seeing the impossible¡­

    Even when Lie Heng had cast her away, she had not cried because she was a cultivator and she had already learnt to control her emotions very well.

    But today she had finally broken down.

    As Ji Yuan watched the back of her fleeing shadow, he sighed quietly; I can''t allow Wan''Er reputation to be tainted by my bad actions. If I admit that this ck panties belong to you then I am double screwed. You tried to lure me into a trap first and I did warn you I''m not interested to party with you. So I hope that you don''t me me for being heartless. We are from different fraternities anyway and it is impossible for us to be together¡­

 Chapter 248 The 3rd Level Of The WEL (7)

    Chen Hanhan was crying alone in the corner of a mountain cliff and she was really visibly upset.

    It was because she had purposely followed Ji Yuan because she was curious about him and had wanted to apologize to him.

    It was true that she had conspired with the other cultivators from her celestial fraternity to lure him into a honey trap before robbing him of all his profound treasures.

    She had never expected that Ji Yuan would lie to the others about her ck panties.

    She muttered softly. "But I am the one that lied to him in the first ce¡­"

    Now she felt at a loss because she could not return to her old cultivation group anymore. It was not as though she knew them personally. She had only met them while on the third level. Using her own cunning and wits, she had managed to reach the third level and had hooked with this ''strong'' group of cultivators from her own celestial fraternity.

    And so they had formed a temporary party together except that they had no intention to clear the trials ahead of them.

    Their n was really simple;

    Look for lone gullible victims that look weak and poor before ambushing them to take away their possessions. They had used this simple logic to make sure that they had the right victims.

    Also, those that arrivedter would usually be weaker than the earlier batches.

    So when Ji Yuan had appeared alone and he had appeared with a na?ve look as well as looking poor, they knew that they had found a victim to ensnare.

    Moreover she had recognized him as from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. When she saw that he was beardless, she knew that this guy here must have a low esteem for losing his beard and he would be d for anypany.

    So she thought that she could make use of his manly vibes to trap him.

    But to her surprise, her honey trap had been slightly modified by Ji Yuan who really got her in the end.

    In the end even her party would not even handle this poor and beardless cultivator.

    She muttered softly." Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Yes? You''re looking for me?"

    Chen Hanhan was startled by the voice as she quickly looked up and saw that it was a grinning Ji Yuan who was now looking at her as he rubbed his chin at the same time.

    "Why are you here?" She was so startled that her voice was stammering.

    She quickly wiped away her tears as she tried to show a brave front.

    "I heard you calling for me so I am here?" Ji Yuan grinned.

    Chen Hanhan: ¡­

    He was obviously lying because in order to hear her, he must have been following her¡­

    Chen Hanhan stood up to walk quietly away when Ji Yuan called out to her. "So are you nning to take the trial alone or are you going back to your group?"

    Chen Hanhan froze in her tracks before she said quietly. "This is none of your business. You have already known that I am lying to you and that I am out to harm you. So you don''t have to be so nice to me¡­"

    "So that is the truth? Huh?" Ling Feiyue had suddenly appeared from beyond the cliff as did Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Mu Wan''Er.

    Chen Hanhan was startled by how silently they had appeared as she thought panicky; are these maidens all high level cultivators? I can''t even sense their presence¡­

    Ji Yuanughed. "See! I didn''t lie to all of you!"<sub> </sub>

    The maidens on the cliff top were all muttering with great guilt. "We have all wronged Ji Yuan this time¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to Chen Hanhan with a solemn look before he said quietly. "Why don''t you join our party and we will help you to clear this trial? Instead of robbing the others, why don''t you try to obtain your own profound treasures?"

    Chen Hanhan smiled weakly. "These deste monsters are not easy to handle. You just want to make use of me and use me as a cannon folder, am I right to say so? Are you taking your revenge on me?"

    Ji Yuan took out his saint-step divine sword, shing it forward before sticking it into the ground.

    This caused Chen Hanhan to be stunned by the profound animus of the saintly sword and she had suddenly dropped to the ground as her jelly legs began to give way.

    She began to stammer. "This¡­this is a saintly sword¡­and you are a peaked great saint¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had shed his divine sword, he would require a great deal of profound strength to wield the saintly sword and his cultivation realm was pronounced.

    Chen Hanhan waspletely stunned. The poor cultivator that she had been despising had turned up to be one of the richest cultivators because not even a major celestial cultivation sect would even afford a saintly sword. They can''t even afford an immortal-step divine sword and saintly sword is a grade higher.

    And this grade higher is not just any grade higher but is like the heavens and the earth.

    She could not even afford a earth-step divine sword and there were still heaven-step, celestial-step and many higher grades of divine swords.

    All of a sudden she really did not know what to say.

    "Do you really think that I will make use of you to clear the obstacles of the trial? I am a great hero in my celestial fraternity and I will help thedies to clear it." Ji Yuanughed jovially with great manly vibes.

    Am I awesome? He was thinking. I must be so impressive in her eyes for sure¡­

    "Ji Yuan is showing off again¡­" Bai Qianfeng muttered.

    "Yes, he is some." Shui Xisi hummed coldly.

    "Well, I am not impressed." Little Princess folded her arms.

    "He will always show off at the first opportunity, especially in front of the other maidens." Ling Feiyue nodded, clearly unimpressed.

    Feng Minyue wasughing softly while Mu Wan''Er was stunned when she saw the saintly divine sword that was in Ji Yuan''s hand. "This¡­is¡­clearly impossible¡­"

    Ji Yuan was looking awkwardly when his finest moment had suddenly be an awkward moment.

    Just as he was thinking how to react to their taunts, Chen Hanhan said quietly. "If I join your party then I hope that you will protect me¡­"

    Ji Yuan returned his attention to Chen Hanhan. "Of course I will. Haha. Trust me."

    Chen Hanhan quietly averted her nces as she lowered her head humbly.

    Ji Yuan returned a gentle nod to her¡­

    The reason why he was here was because Bai Qianfeng had suddenly said to him. "You should at least go after her. She looks terribly sad. I don''t care for your excuses but you should at least take some responsibility."

    Ling Feiyue had also said to him. "We are only teasing you. We are not as mean as you think we are. Go after her and see if she needs our help¡­"

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "So whose ck panties does this belong to?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 249 As Awesome As A King

    Ji Yuan was nowughing as he rolled to and fro.

    Next to him were Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan who were massaging him and they were attending to all his needs.

    On the other side were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue who were looking at the scene awkwardly.

    Ling Feiyue was folding her arms and she was smiling bitterly. "These two maidens are more like his little concubines. If Ji Yuan asks them to go left, they will never dare to go right."

    Little Princess hummed coldly. "They are literally worshipping him like a king."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded lightly. "These two maidens have no backbones at all."

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "He looks like he is enjoying himself¡­"

    Feng Minyue said. "This is none of my business. When he feels like moving to the trial, call me. I''ll be staying at a side first¡­"

    Ling Feiyue pulled Feng Minyue gently. "Heh! Don''t go away. You''re one of us now. Why do you need to go to one side?"

    Shui Xisi giggled. "You can stay here to gossip with us!"

    Little Princess nodded with an enchanting smile. "That''s right!"

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    She turned to say to Shui Xisi. "They are his consorts, why are you gossiping about Ji Yuan?"

    Shui Xisi averted her eyes shyly before she replied. "Do you not think that Ji Yuan is such a fun man to be with? If we don''t gossip about him then what shall we talk about?"

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    She is hopeless. She is treating herself as his consort already¡­

    Bai Qianfeng stomped her foot as she hummed coldly. "These two maidens can''t wait to be banged by Ji Yuan. If Ji Yuan wants to bang them, they will not hesitate to strip. Maybe it is a mistake on my part to ask him to go after that Maiden Chen Hanhan."

    Ling Feiyue said coolly. "What past is over now. In the future, we must keep Ji Yuan as poor as possible so that he will not have any opportunities to show off and flirt."

    Shui Xisi asked. "But how? His saintly divine sword alone is enough for him to show off to everyone how awesome he is and there will be unstoppable number of maidens that will be flocking to him."

    "Although we can''t do anything about his saintly sword but we can surely keep him as poor as possible." Little Princess chuckled.

    "How?" Shui Xisi asked.

    "We have so many of us here. As his consorts and girlfriends we can demand gifts from him. This will keep him poor. And we can make use of his generous spirit and shamelessness to make him as poor as possible." Little Princess returned a wry smile.

    "That is a good n." Ling Feiyueughed softly.

    All of a sudden she returned a soft sigh. "But sometimes I really pity Xiang Li that she has such an impure master. I can''t believe that it is even possible for Ji Yuan to ask a spirit entity to lie for him. He must have used some tricks on her for sure."

    "Yes, Xiang Li is so pitiful¡­" Little Princess heaved a heavy sigh.

    Shui Xisi nodded. "It is too dangerous for Xiang Li to stay around Ji Yuan. Who knows if one day he may decide to bang poor Xiang Li¡­hey don''t look at me like this¡­you will never know¡­"

    "No, it is a real possibility and we must prevent that at all costs." Ling Feiyue said with a sudden realization. "We must have a good talk with Xiang Li and to warn her to be very careful about her lecherous master here."

    Bai Qianfeng began to smile weakly as she thought; maybe Xiang Li isn''t as innocent as you think she is¡­

    Feng Minyue was suddenly giggling softly, drawing stares from the other maidens.

    "Maiden Feng?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously. "What''s wrong?"

    Feng Minyue said nonchntly. "Obviously all of you care for him. If you care for him, why don''t you go over there to give him a massage or two?"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before she said. "You don''t know him well enough. If we do, he will think that we are easy pushovers. So we ought to keep him in check."<sub> </sub>

    All other maidens were all nodding as well.

    Actually they were all putting on a show for one another. In secret, they were all submissive to Ji Yuan when they were alone with him and the show was actually put on for the other maidens to show them that they were not easily dominated by Ji Yuan.

    In the same area, below the deste mountains, a group of six cultivators had just killed arge deste beast.

    This deste beast was arge sixth rank deste beast and it took them a great deal of trouble to kill it.

    The instant that they had killed it, their wristbands were all glowing and they had all received +600 merit points for killing it.

    They had to achieve 10 000 merit points in order to clear the trial.

    This sixth rank profound deste beast was worth 600 merit points. A fifth rank profound beast was worth 150 merit points while a seventh rank profound beast is worth 1800 merit points.

    But none of the cultivators here were willing to fight a seventh rank profound beast because it was not worth the risk.

    Better to live to fight another day.

    Jin Yilong was among the six cultivators and now he was hugging ady cultivator from another celestial fraternity to his waist as heughed. "Didn''t I tell you not to worry and that I am a saint?"

    Thedy cultivator giggled softly. "You''re really so awesome. I''m impressed¡­"

    All of a sudden a dark shadow had popped out of the thick fog and had instantly killed two nearby cultivators!

    Jin Yilong got a shock as he quickly evaded out of the way.

    Thedy cultivator was not so fortunately as the dark shadow had crashed her next with its thick jaws.

    A powerful dark profound animus had suddenly manifested in front of them and they were all stunned; it was an epic seventh rank deste monster, stronger than a ninth rank profound deste beast!

    Jin Yilong was stunned. He had not stepped too deep into the deste mists so how could there be such a high level deste beast in the vicinity?

    Moreover he had not sensed the presence of this powerful beast.

    One must know that the stronger a deste beast is, it will be more difficult to hide its presence.

    But this epic deste beast seemed to have this ability and that was what made it extremely dangerous.

    In a blink of an eye, three cultivators were killed by it because none of them were able to use their divine sense to avoid its attack!

    And none of these cultivators were below the sixth realm level!

    Jin Yilong quickly raised his heaven-step divine sword but his only thoughts were to flee from it.

    He shouted to the two cultivators. "We can make a stand together! If we fight then we can have a fighting chance!"

    Distracted by Jin Yilong, the other two surviving cultivators hesitated briefly.

    That was actually enough for the other two cultivators to be meals for the epic deste beast while Jin Yilong made his getaway.

    In just a short while, his entire party was wiped out!

    And now the terrifying epic deste beast was wing its way toward him rapidly!

    Jin Yilong was startled as he shed through multiple overgrown as he thought panicky; I must get back to the top where there are other cultivators¡­I am the son of heavens and I can''t die here¡­

 Chapter 250 Ji Yuan Vs. Jin Yilong (1)

    Jin Yilong was now exhausted from the running and from fighting against the epic deste beast that was chasing after him.

    With an exhausted loud yell, he had tripped into the muddy pool when the tentacles of the epic deste beast had suddenly struck his back.

    As he fell with his face down into the muddy pool, he began to mutter weak. "I''m the son of the heavens¡­how can I die in this ce¡­I shouldn''t be here at all¡­I don''t want to be a great saint¡­a saint is enough for me¡­my father don''t understand¡­I have the influence, the resources and numerous saints under me¡­why did I have toe to this ursed ce only to die¡­"

    Just as his hope was slowly dying away, a small dragon the size of a small house had suddenly appeared in front of him and it was growling furiously.

    He was startled because this small dragon had the profound animus of a dangerous seventh rank profound beast!

    Jin Yilong was stunned. At his back was a seventh rank epic deste beast and in front of him was a seventh rank profound beast!

    Even though this seventh rank profound beast did not look dangerous at all because it was very small but Jin Yilong began to panic immediately. It was because any seventh rank profound beast could be a threat to even the saint cultivators.

    Just as he was about to disy his divine sword against the seventh rank profound beast in front of him, a beautiful voice said from beyond the surroundings. "If you dare toy a finger on my Yuanyuan, I will make sure I''ll feed you to the deste beast that is behind you."

    He could not see where the beautiful voice hade from but immediately, the ferocious roar of the epic seventh rank deste beast had suddenly died down and it seemed to have disappeared at the same time as well!

    Would an epic deste beast be afraid of a mere lowly seventh rank profound beast?!

    Jin Yilong totally had no answers!

    But all of a sudden he was rmed because he could suddenly sense the aura of another seventh rank epic deste aura!

    He waspletely stunned!

    It was only then he had realized that a more powerful deste beast had arrived on the scene!

    How could there be two seventh rank deste beast on the third level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?!

    All of a sudden he was stunned once again when he saw that a most peerless maiden in silver hair had appeared out of the blue; her features could not be easily described by words and she had a lofty aura that could cause men to be in awe of her.

    In fact, she looked so forbidden that her peerless beauty could only be praised and admired but no men and saints could even think of riding her. It was because she was like a peerless goddess and even saints would feel unease to look into her golden eyes.

    To even entertain the thought of banging her, waspletely unthinkable!

    Even though Jin Yilong had yed with countless maidens but this was one maiden that could cause his heart to pace rapidly and he was like a young kid in front of her lofty and peerless beauty.

    He was furthered startled that the profound animus of the epic seventh rank deste beast hade from this peerless beauty!

    This maiden had disyed her golden profound aura together with her spirit entity and Jin Yilong was stunned that thisdy cultivator actually had a seventh rank epic deste beast as her spirit entity.

    This maiden must surely have a most influential background¡­

    But all of a sudden again, he was stunned once more when he saw that the divine sword that was in this maiden''s hand was a celestial-step divine sword!

    A celestial sword!

    When he saw that this maiden seemed to be wearing the dress of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, he was further stunned.

    He had never heard or seen her before!

    Such a peerless goddess would surely be noticed by all the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­

    Also her profound animus had revealed herself as a great saintess through her celestial sword¡­

    Why is that he had never heard of such a beautiful great saintess in the Deste Celestial Fraternity before?

    "This¡­" he muttered.

    "Thank you maiden for saving my life. May I know who are you?" Ji Yilong began to smile once more as he slowly picked himself up. "I am Master Jin Yilong, the scion of the richest celestial n in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Surely you have heard of my name before?"

    The peerless maiden with silver hair casually said. "I''ve never heard of your name before."

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    "Are you from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?" Jin Yilong smiled weakly. "Surely you have heard of the Mystic Profound Pavilion?"

    "So what if I''ve heard of it? So what if I''ve never heard of it?" The silver hair peerless maiden casually replied.

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yiling weakly said. "It is the richest orthodox celestial n in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    The silver hair peerless maiden interrupted coldly. "Does your celestial n has a celestial divine sword? Or even a half-step celestial sword?"

    Jin Yilong: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    He thought; is she hinting to me that she is richer than me?

    But Jin Yilong was undeterred. All of a sudden he had thought of seducing this beautiful goddess and to make her into his woman. With such a powerful cultivator on his side, his future would be limitless!

    So he asked. "May I know which celestial n are you from?"

    "I''ve no celestial n." She replied nonchntly.

    Jin Yilong was startled. Is she lying? She has no celestial n?

    But he was not deterred so he smiled. "Why don''t youe and join my celestial n then? We can give you the best resources to cultivate¡­"

    "Do I even need to cultivate when I''m already a peaked great saintess?" The silver hair peerless maiden said.

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    This maiden is proving to be a tough nut to crack through her icy shell¡­

    "Why don''t you go already? I didn''t save your life because you are handsome. In fact, your looks are average only." The silver hair peerless maiden hummed coldly.

    Jin Yilong was stunned; no one has ever said that he was not handsome¡­

    In fact, he was considered to be extremely handsome by the standards of the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    He muttered. "But I''m handsome¡­"

    "Your beard is extremely ugly." The silver hair peerless maiden hummed coldly.

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Jin Yilong''s jaws almost dropped when he had heard her¡­

    My beard is extremely ugly? How is it possible?!

    Is there any example of a more handsome man than he is?!

    "Qianfeng, why didn''t you kill that deste beast?" A gentle voice had suddenly interrupted his thoughts and all of a sudden he had found this voice to be so eerily familiar.

    No, this can''t be that Ji Yuan¡­

    "Haha. I see that you''ve just saved a cultivator here. It is no wonder¡­"

    All of a sudden Jin Yilong froze in his tracks when he saw Ji Yuan and it was really him!

    Ji Yuan was equally startled as well when he saw that it was Jin Yilong.

    Behind Ji Yuan were six veiled maidens. Only Bai Qianfeng was unveiled as her veil had fallen off in her haste to check the vicinity when she had sensed the presence of an epic seventh rank deste beast.

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng had leapt into Ji Yuan''s embrace and cuddled with great tenderness into his embrace as she muttered with great delight. "My lord, you are finally here."

    Jin Yilong was stunned¡­

    It was because thest thing that he had expected was that this lofty great goddess would be so submissive in front of Ji Yuan who he was trying to kill because he had actually dared to snatch away his Zhao Songjin¡­

    Hatred and rage filled his eyes as he stared coldly at Ji Yuan. He got a feeling that Ji Yuan may have already ridden this lofty great goddess¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw Jin Yilong. "It is you. Why didn''t you die yet?"

    Bai Qianfeng looked up gently and asked. "My lord, did I save the wrong person? You know him?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. "Yea. I know him for many years already¡­"

    Jin Yilong said bitterly. "It seems that today we can finally settle our feuds¡­"

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "He wants to fight Ji Yuan? Is he joking or what? This Saint Jin Yilong is but a mere saint while Ji Yuan is a peaked great saint."

    Jin Yilong was stunned as he stared at Ji Yuan. "You''re a great saint? And a peaked great saint?"

    Ji Yuan lifted his head slightly to say coldly. "Saint Jin Yilong. You ought to address me as Great Saint Ji Yuan. Have you no respect for a great saint?"

 Chapter 251 Ji Yuan Vs. Jin Yilong (2)

    Jin Yilong said bitterly. "Do you know how many saints and great saints are at the call of my fingers?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud. "That is outside of here but now you are obviously alone. Do you know how many saintesses and supremacies that I have inmand here?"

    Shui Xisi interrupted with a soft chuckle. "All your saintesses all happen to be great saintesses as well!"

    Jin Yilong stared at Shui Xisi and began to wonder who she was behind her veil. It was because her voice was all too familiar. "Have we met?"

    The more he was hearing her voice, the more convince that he was that he knew her somehow.

    Shui Xisiughed before she took off her veil as she revealed her peerless countenance. "Indeed we have."

    "Shui Sisi from the Water Melody Pce?" Jin Yilong was startled. "Why are you here? And why are you with Ji Yuan?"

    In recent months, Shui Sisi had been making her rounds to visit all the major celestial ns all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Therefore she was known to Jin Yilong as well.

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily as he looked at Sisi. "Howe the two of you will know each other?"

    Shui Xisi was d that Ji Yuan was showing signs of envy so she chuckled. "That is none of your business."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Jin Yilong noticed two beautiful maidens who were unveiled. One was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and the other one was from an unknown fraternity. And he saw that they were both looking at Ji Yuan with an adored look.

    He thought; this guy is such a lecherous flirt!

    Other than Shui Xisi that he had recognized, he could not recognize the rest of the veiled maidens.

    He said coldly. "You have dared to steal the love of my life from me and now you are flirting with so many maidens here."

    Then he raised his voice to say loudly. "Do you all know that this Ji Yuan already has how many consorts, concubines and lovers from where he is from? Don''t be fooled by this rogue cultivator!"

    Shui Xisi and the rest of the maidens were all giggling softly.

    It was as though they had found his remarks to be a most funny remark!

    Jin Yilong was startled. They should be envious, right? Why is their reaction like this?

    He continued weakly. "Don''t be deceived by his good looks and honeb words! The sooner that you leave him, the better¡­"

    "Do you mean Zhao Songjin?" Ji Yuan asked all of a sudden, interrupting him.

    Jin Yilong hummed coldly. "You''ve finally remembered our feud!"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Howe I can''t remember I am with her?"

    Jin Yilong replied coldly. "Do you think you can hide her visits to your tent? There is even a rumor that you had killed Yin Wei as well. Sword Saint Ji Yuan, I didn''t expect that in order for you to obtain a beauty into your harem, you will actually resort to such despicable lies. Are you fit to be a sword saint and a gentleman of the sword?"

    Chen Hanhan gasped as she cuddled near to Ji Yuan, "My lord, you didn''t tell me that you are also a sword saint and a gentleman of the sword."

    The adtion for Ji Yuan in her eyes had suddenly increased ten folds and she was hopeless in her adtions for him.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chins as heughed. "Actually I am also the most handsome man in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li was screaming andughing jovially. "Of course! My Big Brother is the handsomest man in the entire Celestial Realm!"

    Mu Wan''Er smiled as she quickly added. "Indeed, he is¡­"

    The other four maidens were all smiling awkwardly behind their veils. This session had suddenly turned into a self-glorification session for Ji Yuan¡­

    Only Bai Qianfeng who was unveiled did not have any expression and she was cuddling her Yuanyuan in the same pattern as when Ji Yuan used to cuddle her when she was in her nine-tail silver fox form.

    As she cuddled Yuanyuan, she was dreamily looking at Ji Yuan¡­

    Jin Yilong said coldly. "Did you all see how shameless he is?"

    But all of a sudden he had frozen in the spot. It was because he had suddenly noticed that all the maidens were all seemingly looking at Ji Yuan with a romantic look. None of them seemed to be disying any envious gestures or rage.

    This was not what he had expected after revealing that Ji Yuan was a flirt.

    He could not say that Ji Yuan was unfaithful because such this word had no meaning to the male cultivators as it was eptable for them to take more than one consort and cultivators were free to choose their cultivation partners.

    Therefore he could only hint that Ji Yuan may have multiple partners.

    But none of the maidens seemed to be affected by his revtions of Ji Yuan¡­

    "My lord, shall I kill him for you? I don''t like him at all." Little Princess interrupted all of a sudden and her voice was cold.

    She was an unorthodox cultivator and there was no hesitation or tease in her voice. It was as though it was all too casual for her to mutter it out.

    At the same time she had naturally already known what their feud was. The start of their feud was also the start of her romantic happening with Ji Yuan three hundred years¡­

    Ji Yuan replied as he stared coldly at Jin Yilong. "Three hundred years ago, I was just a lowly celestial while you are a sixth realm golden supremacy. Because of you, my old sweetheart had abandoned our years of sentiments to be with you, a man that she had only met for the first time for only a single day."

    Jin Yilong was now smiling bitterly. Indeed¡­

    He had never expected that the lowly celestial that he had beaten up three hundred years ago would quickly be a golden celestial in no time and that he had even be sword saint with a fearsome reputation.

    Actually he was a little afraid three hundred years ago when he had suddenly realized soon after that Ji Yuan''s master was a golden sword saint.

    That was why he had fled as quickly as he could soon after he had cursed Ji Yuan''s old sweetheart. "Why didn''t you tell me that this Ji Yuan is from the Orthodox Sword Sect and that he is also a core prot¨¦g¨¦?! Why didn''t you tell me?"

    But she had replied casually. "If I tell you, will you still dare to go after me?"

    Ji Yuan had never told his old master about it because his old master had a big temper and he was quite notorious in the orthodox fraternity for his temper.

    That was another reason why the Evil Cultivation Pce did not dare to make an open assault on Ji Yuan for so many years until the demise of Ji Yuan''s old master when he had failed to return after going down the deste mists.

    For many years, Jin Yilong had lived in fear that he may be confronted by Ji Yuan and his master. Even though his celestial n is a major celestial n with numerous saints to protect him but his reputation would surely be affected.

    Two sword saints confronting him would surely make the headlines of the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity and he would be the butt of a joke in the eyes of everyone.

    And Ji Yuan had be such a terrible strong foe of his now¡­

    Jin Yilong inhaled deeply. "We should settle our feuds with our swords. But this will be unfair to me because you have an immortal sword and moreover you are a great saint now."

    Ji Yuan nodded. "Indeed it is time for us to settle our feuds."

    Then he brandished his divine sword from his spatial ring and shed it in front of Jin Yilong. "Since it will be unfair to you then I won''t use my immortal sword. I will use my saintly sword instead."

    A saint-step divine sword was suddenly shed in front of Jin Yilong, startling him.

    Jin Yilong was so startled that he took several steps back and he was trembling weakly. "This¡­this¡­this is a legendary saint sword?! How did hell did you manage to obtain something like this?!"

    He waspletely stunned.<sub> </sub>

    Just this saintly sword alone would propel Ji Yuan to the top fighters ranking in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. It did not matter if Ji Yuan was not a power cultivator because a saint sword could magnify the profound power of a cultivator''s profound strength by many times.

    This Ji Yuan may be the only person in the Deste Celestial Fraternity to ever own a saint sword¡­

    Jin Yilong was now trembling under the power of saint sword as he stared at the saint sword that was in Ji Yuan''s hand and the celestial sword that was in Bai Qianfeng''s hand.

    He could not believe that Ji Yuan and his party would own two such superior grade divine swords that few in the entire Celestial Realm would only dare to dream of but was unable to obtain¡­

    All of a sudden he felt extremely poor¡­

    He had only one word to say now; Ji Yuan''s old sweetheart had been so blind to follow him and not Ji Yuan¡­

    Moreover Ji Yuan was now a peaked great saint and he was not lying as evidenced by his profound power that was being disyed through his divine sword.

    Even Jin Yilong''s divine sense was also telling him that Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm was now much higher than him.

    This waspletely different from the time when they had fought a few months ago¡­

    And that was the second time that they had met again.

    In less than a year, Ji Yuan had risen to be a peaked great saint.

    This pace of progression was clearly unheard of!

    Every single step beyond the sacred saint cultivation realm is extremely tedious and difficult to advance!

    That was why Jin Yilong was being forced to enter the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth for his breakthrough¡­

    Jin Yilong feltpletely defeated.

    Ji Yuan was superior in every way to him now¡­

    He could only sigh bitterly now. "I am not your match. So what do you want?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chins and his little fingers were now moving¡­

    Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng who knew Ji Yuan very well were immediately amused because they had known Ji Yuan for so long that they knew that he was up to no good when he was rubbing his chins¡­

    Ji Yuan said. "You''re not my match now because I have an unfair advantage over you. That is not because of my superior cultivation realm or my divine sword but because your ugly beard hinders your path to cultivation."

    Jin Yilong was startled. "My ugly beard is a hinder to my cultivation?!"

    Is he joking?

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "Since you are so informed, didn''t you know already know the secret of my sess?"

    "That is only something children will believe in." Jin Yilong muttered bitterly.

    But secretly, he was already half-convinced by now.

    "By the way, I am going to tell you one more secret that I have never shared with anyone except for my harem." Ji Yuan added slowly. "This is the truth secret of my sess."

    Jin Yilong: ???

    Why would he tell me a secret? Is he thinking of silencing me soon after and that is why he is telling me his secret? Because only a dead man won''t be able to talk¡­

    "After you have shaved your beard, you must castrate yourself so your beard won''t regrow. Although it may be painful at first but after a few years, you will be able to regrow it back." Ji Yuan added solemnly.

    Jin Yilong smiled bitterly. "Why would you tell me this? Do you think that you can trick me to castrate myself?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "Do I need to trick you when at the swing of my sword, I can castrate you directly? Do you know how urate I am in poking holes?"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuan is too vulgar¡­

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    "Then why are you telling me this?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly. "Because your daughter Jin Yuyun is still alive. She is with someone that I know now."

    Yea. My son. But I''m not going to tell you who my son is or you will get a heart attack.

    Jin Yilong was startled. "My daughter is still alive? Where is she?"

    He was panicky now because Jin Yuyun was his only heir and currently the future heiress to the Mystic Profound Pavilion because he was the only son of his father the grandmaster of the Mystic Profound Pavilion.

    The loss of Jin Yuyun was a terrible loss to him as well as to his father because his father had long given up hope that he would be a great saint in the future.

    But Jin Yuyun was different. She still had the potential and she was the beloved of his father, who was her grandfather.

    "She is still alive? She is not dead?"

    Jin Yilong was now trembling. "Then why didn''t shee back to us? Is she fine? Is she a hostage?!"

    He was suddenly afraid of the fate of his daughter.

    Ji Yuan replied. "She is doing very fine and is very happy. She just wants to be with the one she loves and she did not care for the wealth of Mystic Profound Pavilion."

    Jin Yilong smiled bitterly. "My daughter will not give up the wealth of the Mystic Profound Pavilion for any love. This will be detrimental to her future cultivation."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Your daughter is unlike her mother and you. She doesn''t care for all these because you had abandoned her in the mountains to the mercies of the deste beasts."

    Jin Yilong exined. "I did not abandon her. It was chaotic at that time¡­"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "I was the one that saved your daughter even though it may be chaotic. But as a father, you have failedpletely."

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he rubbed his chin. "On ount of your daughter''s good soul, I will let you go today without beating you up. And good luck to your luck. With your ugly beard, you can never hope to be on the same level as me."

    That is for my son actually, haha.

    After he had said that, Ji Yuan began to walk away.

    He did not want to kill Jin Yilong because of Jin Yuyun''s sake. This daughter-inw of his had an impressive spirit. So on ount of her sake, Ji Yuan did not want to beat up Jin Yilong. But¡­

    He was suddenlyughing silently at the thought that Jin Yilong would be castrating himself¡­

    And all seven maidens began to follow Ji Yuan immediately.

    Jin Yilong was left to tremble on his own as he stroked his beard with trembling fingers. "I have to castrate myself in order to make myself stronger¡­and moreover my beard is really ugly¡­"

 Chapter 252 Exiting The 3rd Level Trial

    Little Princess shed in front of Ji Yuan. "Why did you spare that scum?"

    Even Ling Feiyue was folding her arms with an unhappily look. "He tries to kill you, me and Qianxue. Have you forgotten about it?"

    Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were not orthodox cultivators and they preferred a much harsher treatment of their enemies.

    Shui Xisi may not be an unorthodox cultivator but she was never a softie. "Yea. Why didn''t you teach him a lesson?"

    Ji Yuan turned around as he said casually to them. "It is all because he has a good daughter and his daughter is now with my son."

    Then heughed aloud. "Haha. But this guy is definitely a scum and I don''t like him at all. "

    "Then why?" Shui Xisi asked.

    Even Mu Wan''Er was saying. "He is part of the group that wants to kill you inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth for sure. He can''t kill you now but he will try to kill youter when all the cultivators began to gather at the higher levels."

    Ji Yuan smiled as he exined. "Actually without Jin Yilong, I would never have met the first love of my life, Saintess Yuxian. At that time I did not know that she is actually Jian Yuluo¡­"

    Little Princess interrupted. "Huh?! She is the first love of your life?! Then what about your ex-sweetheart? You are so dead drunk at that time because of her¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a bitterugh. "Actually our rtionship isn''t supposed tost. She had always told me that one day she would leave the Five Heavens Peaks as the ce is too poor for her to cultivate. She wanted a better future."

    Then his smiles got even bitter. "I had thought that I was in love with her but after I had met Yuxian, I have finally understood what love is."

    Shui Xisi could not resist a tease. "So what is love?"

    Among the maidens, only Feng Minyue and she could be considered an outsider.

    Ji Yuan smiled with fond memories. "Love has to be unconditioned. It did not work out with my ex-sweetheart because her heart isn''t with me in the first ce."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly. "So is that why you''re never been attached all these years until recently?"

    Ji Yuan frowned before he rolled his eyes to look at Little Princess who quickly averted her head away. Very slowly, he grinned. "Actually, I just cannot forget Yuxian. Haha."

    Little Princess hummed coldly. "Good answer."

    Ji Yuanughed. "If I say something wrong, I am afraid that I will be dead overnight for sure."

    Little Princess: ¡­

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan began to say solemnly. "The feud with Jin Yilong is only a small matter but if he pushes his hand then I won''t be so kind in the future. I just don''t want to put my son and future daughter-inw in an awkward position. Moreover their children are going to going to address Jin Yilong as their grandfather and be his heirs as well."

    Then he rolled his eyes before saying. "However, I can''t party with Jin Yilong. He has to get out of here himself and what happens to him is none of my business¡­"

    Feng Minyue giggled softly. "But you seem to be tricking him so that he would castrate himself. If you say that you are willing to forgive the feud between the two of you then is that so? You have lied to him."

    This was the rare moment that Feng Minyue had taken the initiative to speak. Most times, she had stayed away from Ji Yuan''s affairs and his chats with the other maidens in the party unless it was necessary for her to speak.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "It is only a joke. Surely his intelligence isn''t that low as to really believe it?"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    They were all thinking; it was obviously that Ji Yuan was not joking to Jin Yilong and he was seriously trying to fool him¡­

    Ji Yuan added. "He tries to kill me and I am only making a joke to him. Can this even be considered to be a feud at all? I don''t think so. I am extremely forgiving person and is a gentleman of the sword."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    The maidens continued to think; it was obvious he was lying because there were clear hostilities in his eyes when he saw Jin Yilong¡­

    Feng Minyue suddenly said. "You didn''t tell him who that person that his daughter has fallen in love with is actually your son, am I right?"

    Then she added a wry smile. "You are letting him go because you want him to experience the shock of discovering that his daughter and your son is a couple. Why are you so mean?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he disyed a guilty countenance. "Haha. Let''s go. It is gettingter now¡­.we still have a trial toplete¡­"

    Why is Feng Minyue so smart?

    Now her impression of me is going to take a big hit¡­

    "This is sweet revenge and I like it." Feng Minyue suddenly said all of a sudden, surprising Ji Yuan and interrupting his thoughts.

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly. "Is that so?"

    "Not all revenge needs to be settled with the sword." Feng Minyue casually replied. We are all superior cultivators here and we shouldn''t be picking up fights with the weaker cultivators because of petty feuds."

    Shui Xisiughed. "That is true. Ji Yuan and Jin Yilong are merely friends with benefits."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He immediately protested strongly. "I don''t regard Jin Yilong as a friend and there are no benefits between us."

    "Qianfeng, why didn''t you kill that deste beast earlier? I''m sure that you can." He quickly tried to distract the topic to Bai Qianfeng.

    Qianfeng replied coolly. "Because I don''t want to give the merit points to Jin Yilong."

    If a deste beast was killed nearby, all the other nearby cultivators would benefit from it by receiving merit points.

    "Well, that is not the point. We should continue our hunt now." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    -

    -

    -

    It took them less than a day before they had obtained the 10,000 merit points that were necessary to clear the trial.

    The trial reward this time was not as awesome as before as Ji Yuan and his party were not the first to clear the trial and this trial was not exactly too hard for many of the high level cultivators to clear.

    The trial reward was still reasonable rewarding and Ji Yuan got a rare fourth rank recovery profound pill as his reward.

    After he had exited the reward portal, the other seven maidens had all exited at almost the same time as well.

    Ji Yuanughed warmly when he saw them exiting. "This trial is easy. I wonder what will the next trial will be?"

    Everyone was nodding as they agreed with Ji Yuan as well as asking one another. "So what are your rewards?"

    Chen Hanhan had a flustered look as she watched Ji Yuan quietly. She had never thought that she would be in a party full of geniuses and expert cultivators.

    Basically she did not need to do much as all she did was to just follow them.

    Even Mu Wan''Er was feeling a little guilty. She had never thought that she would clear a level three trial in such a short time.

    And the two maidens began to idolize Ji Yuan even more as Ji Yuan asked. "So where are we now?"

    In the meantime, elsewhere below the deste mist;

    Jin Yilong had taken out his divine sword with trembling fingers. He had finally decided to shave off his beard and to castrate himself because he was too afraid of dying inside the deste mist.

    Without a group to support him, he was really afraid now.

    He was actually beginning to curse Ji Yuan for his goodpany. "I really don''t want to die in this ce¡­"

 Chapter 253 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (1)

    Immediately after Ji Yuan and his group were teleported to a new location, Chen Hanhan was suddenly gasping with shock. "We are in the same location? What is going on?"

    Even Mu Wan''Er had a sudden realization that something seemed to be strange here. She muttered. "We are still together?"

    She had decided to treat Ji Yuan like a king because she was really afraid that this trial may be thest trial that she would be able to see him and moreover there was a chance that she may perish here. After all, the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth was a real trial where deaths were real.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly before he said solemnly. "We may be in a special trial. Maybe that is why."

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    That was the same thing that Ji Yuan had told her previously¡­

    Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er were both gasping with shock. "We have stumbled upon a special trial?"

    Ji Yuan nodded solemnly. "That is right."

    Inside of Ji Yuan''s soul sea, Xiang Li was face-palming as she listened to him. "Big Brother, you ought toe up with something new¡­"

    Ji Yuan replied. "I can''t think of another. Can you?"

    "Maybe you are all fated for the past three lifetimes?" Xiang Li giggled as she offered her suggestion.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Can you alsoe up with something new as well?"

    In the mean-time Feng Minyue was quietly looking at Ji Yuan as he interacted with the two other maidens.

    She was actually secretly thinking; I guess that I have misunderstood that the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all crude cultivators without any culture. He prefers to use his wits to ovee a hatred enemy of his rather than take him out like a hypocrite that worn the skin of an orthodox cultivator.

    Mu Wan''Er asked all of a sudden. "I''ve never heard of any special trials in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Although Wan''Er may look timid but she was actually not afraid to voice out her opinion. It was the same when she had first met Ji Yuan when she had tried to warn Saint Wu Heng. She was the only one that had dared to be vocal in her opinion.

    As for Chen Hanhan, even though she had dared to openly lie to Ji Yuan but now that she was given a chance to be in his party, she actually was quite timid to voice her own opinion. It was because she was now afraid to say the wrong words and afraid to lose Ji Yuan''s trust in her again.

    Therefore she had kept perfectly quiet and had even believed in everything that Ji Yuan had said to her.

    Sometimes it is the way human nature works and it is how it is.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "If this is not a special trial then how do you exin why we are all together after a trial?"

    Mu Wan''Er nodded quietly. "Indeed, this is a little hard to exin."

    Then she turned to look and smile at the five saintesses. "What do you think?"

    Except for Feng Minyue, immediately Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had said at the same time;

    "Yea, this is a special trial¡­"

    "There is no doubt about it¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Or else you can''t exin why we are all in the same location¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er smiled weakly. "But the five of you seem to be with Ji Yuan for some time already¡­"

    "No idea why but let''s don''t delve too deeply into the mysteries of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth¡­" The four maidens said almost at the same time.

    Mu Wan''Er: ¡­

    In the end she did not get any answers and she had a most perplexed look at the five maidens and Ji Yuan¡­

    But Ji Yuanughed it off, "Come on. Let''s see where we are first. They''re right. Maybe there is a new rule in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth that we did not know¡­haha¡­"

    As he said, he began to walk off to explore the new surroundings which were surrounded by misty mountains.

    He was soon gasping as he disyed a grin to everyone. "It seems that we may have found a trial entrance."

    Everyone: ???

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously. "How is it possible?"

    As she said, she had joined the other maidens as they grouped around Ji Yuan to catch a sight of the trial entrance.

    However all they saw were endless misty mountains.

    "Where is the trial entrance?" Many of the maidens were now asking.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly as she disyed her divine perception before she slowly said. "There seems to be a trial entrance in front of us. But I can''t be too sure. If I am a mile closer, I can be sure."

    Then she smiled at Ji Yuan, "My lord, it seems that your divine sense is pretty acute after you have reached the great saint peak."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before heughed. "Haha. Actually I didn''t sense it but I saw a cave and there are several shadows which I presume to be cultivators that are moving inside the cave entrance."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone was thinking; Ji Yuan really got very sharp eyes¡­

    Shui Xisi giggled all of a sudden. "Maybe I should poke his eyes to impair his eyesight. Who knows what he does with his eyes all the time?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly replied. "I am not arguing with you. Let''s go and take a look at the trial entrance. I think that is around¡­thirty miles of walk?"

    Little Princessughed softly. "Alright Ji Yuan. Please lead us to there."

    Ji Yuan patted his chest as heughed. "Count on me! Let''s go!"

    And he began to take flight rapidly through the mountain trails.

    All the maidens began to nod eagerly as they began to follow Ji Yuan excitingly.

 Chapter 254 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (2)

    The trial entrance was actually hidden between two tall cliffs and was almost covered by a heavy white fog.

    Ling Feiyue and many of the maidens were astonished how Ji Yuan was able to see it from so far away.

    "Are you a bird in your past life?" Little Princess teased him with a yful wink.

    Ji Yuan grinned back. "Yes I am. How do you know? Haha."

    Ling Feiyue folded her arm as she walked past him but not before she passed him a humorous remark. "No wonder you like to pass shit everywhere."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the other maidens began tough jovially when they saw Ji Yuan''s reaction.

    Their jovialughter did not escape notice and it caught the attention of some three hundred cultivators that were at the trial entrance.

    Many of the cultivators were quite startled by the beautifulughter; they could see seven veiled maidens and a really fine looking man walking in their direction.

    Although they could not see the appearances of the seven veiled maidens but they could tell that they must be beautiful maidens from the alluring disy of their demeanors.

    And this man that was with them was really very handsome. Holding his arms were two of the veiled maidens and they were looking at all his very little movements, paying only scant attention to the presence of the hundreds of cultivators that were presented; it was as though they did not care for any of them.

    These two veiled maidens were actually Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan.

    Although they did not know who this young man was but they could recognize that he was wearing the attire that was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Many of the cultivators were growling as they could not understand how this fine looking man could have thepany of a party of beautiful maidens. Moreover, some of the maidens appeared to havee from the other celestial fraternity and did not appear to havee from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    "Who is he?"

    "Is he a heretic or an unorthodox cultivator?"

    "Did he use some despicable coercion on these maidens?"

    "What happens to his beard? Isn''t he from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    All of a sudden a dozen of the cultivators began to slip away as they had recognized Ji Yuan and were pretending that they had never seen him¡­

    There were some twenty cultivators that were already surrounding Ji Yuan as they greeted him excitingly. "Great Hero Ji Yuan. We are so excited to have you here!"

    "It is our luck to have met you here¡­"

    "Great Hero Ji Yuan is indeed a great hero. You have reached the third level as well¡­"

    "Maybe Great Hero Ji Yuan, you are able to help us toplete this trial?"

    These cultivators were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and naturally they had recognized Ji Yuan. Furthermore, they were greeting him with great idtry.

    Chen Hanhan was startled she had no idea that Ji Yuan was really a great hero. Her head was swirling in confusion; I thought that the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity worshipped only the bearded cultivators and they despised men that did not have any beards?

    Upon taking a closer look at the cultivators that were surrounding Ji Yuan, she was quite startled that all the men that were surrounding Ji Yuan did not have any beards as well.

    What is going on?

    Chen Hanhan gave Ji Yuan a perplexed look but Ji Yuan was not paying attention to her as he wasughing jovially as he basked in the adtion that was given to him.

    But all of a sudden a handsome cultivator in white had stepped forward and he was staring at Ji Yuan with a righteous look as he brandished his divine sword at the same time.

    Many of the cultivators were startled as they had recognized that his divine sword was a celestial-step divine sword!

    "He actually has a celestial sword?!"

    "Who is he?"

    "He seems to be from the Eastern Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "He must be a powerful cultivator¡­"

    A cultivator that was nearbyughed. "He is a great saint. A renowned great saint from the Eastern Celestial Fraternity. My celestial fraternity! He is known as White Saint Cai Bisheng!"

    Many of the cultivators were now gasping with shock, especially the female cultivators that were now looking with interest at him¡­<sub> </sub>

    "He is a great saint?"

    "He is so handsome¡­"

    "I wish that I can have his celestial sword¡­"

    "He must be a genius cultivator from the Eastern Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    Cai Bisheng said coldly to Ji Yuan. "I don''t know how you manage to trick these maidens into following you but please assure that I will set them free today."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stoppedughing and he was throwing this unknown cultivator a perplexed look. "What if I tell you that they are following me willingly?"

    Cai Bisheng hummed coldly. "I''m Great Saint Cai Bisheng from the Eastern Celestial Fraternity and I am also known as the White Saint of the Major Righteous Manor, one of the nine major orthodox celestial ns of the Eastern Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "So you want to tell me to prepare for my doom?" Ji Yuan interrupted him.

    Cai Bisheng smiled. "You seem to be a wise fellow. Let them go and I will consider sparing you."

    Then he turned to smile at the seven maidens. "Do not be afraid maidens. I am here¡­"

    "Who are you?"

    "Why are you picking on our lord?"

    "What a busybody¡­"

    "Does he really think he is more handsome than my lord?"

    "He should take a peek at the mirror first¡­"

    "What a boorish man¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, do you want me to help you to settle him?"

    "What an idiot¡­"

    All six of the maidens except for Feng Minyue were all surrounding Ji Yuan as they made their nastyments that were directed at Cai Bisheng.

    Cai Bisheng was quite startled at their cold stares but he quickly realized that it may be due to a trauma syndrome that caused the victims to be sticky to their tormentor until they were released.

    So he smiled and said. "Maidens, do not be afraid. I''m here. I will be your liberator and I''m the lover of justice. I shall free you from this evil man."

    Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi mocked him at the same time as they chuckled. "You want to liberate us from Ji Yuan? Dream on!"

    Shui Xisi raised her finger at him as she chuckled jovially. "Ji Yuan is a peaked great saint. Are you capable of defeating him?"

    Cai Bisheng was truly startled. "He is a peaked great saint? That''s impossible. This isn''t a joke, right? Why should a peaked great saint risk their lives toe into the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth? Moreover he looks poor and he doesn''t even have any wrinkles. He can''t be a peaked great saint¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him. "That is because I''m a genius."

    Cai Bisheng: ¡­

    Cai Bisheng: ¡­

    Cai Bisheng: ¡­

    Cai Bisheng smiled coldly. "Unfortunately, I am also known as a genius. How about a fight between two great saints then? Are you afraid?"

    Ji Yuanughed coldly. "I will be afraid?"

    Xiang Li raised her fists in his soul sea. "My big brother will surely beat you to an ugly purple pulp!"

    Feng Minyue quietly whispered to Ji Yuan. "Be careful and do not underestimate your opponent."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he looked at Feng Minyue with gentle eyes. "Haha. I can surely handle him."

    Bai Qianfeng muttered. "Don''t be too sure. You''re not a power cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "We shall see. He may not be a power cultivator too."

    Cai Bishengughed. "So you are not a power cultivator? I happen to be a power cultivator. Haha."

 Chapter 255 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (3)

    Hundreds of cultivators were now gathering around Ji Yuan and Cai Bisheng now. It was because this was a duel between two great saints and many of the cultivators were interested to know their disparity with a great saint.

    A fight between two great saints was an epic fight that was not to be missed!

    As a matter of fact, many of the cultivators were now grinning and were even purposely inciting for the fight to happen.

    "Fight!"

    "Fight! Fight!"

    "Fight! Fight! Fight!"

    Cai Bisheng was a little startled because he had not expected that this poor looking cultivator to be also a great saint.

    In fact he was silently questioning. "Is he really a peaked great saint? He doesn''t even look like a great saint at all. This must be a bluff for sure¡­"

    He rolled his eyes as he clutched his divine sword tightly before he concluded silently. "This has to be a bluff. He is too poor looking and I doubt that he even has a divine sword at all. He must have forced these maidens to lie for him. Hmph! Very sure, I shall know if he is for real¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was ying with her fingernails as she casually said to Ji Yuan. "I told you to get better clothing. No one ever believes that you are a great saint."

    Ji Yuan replied with a small frown. "What the heck does appearance have to do with a cultivator''s cultivation level?"

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi chuckled almost immediately, "Everything."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "If we''re not beautiful and did not groom ourselves, will you still like us?" Ling Feiyue giggled with a yful wink at him.

    Ji Yuan responded with a righteous defiance, "I didn''t like you because of your looks."

    Xiang Li responded curiously. "Big Brother, really?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I didn''t expect that you didn''t trust me as well. You''re thest person that should have doubted me." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Xiang Li returned a pitiful look. "I always trust Big Brother¡­"

    Ji Yuan said with utmost solemnness to her, "You can''t judge a person by their appearances. This is too superficial."

    Xiang Li sniffed. "I''m so wrong. Please forgive me, Big Brother¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Alright then. You''re forgiven."

    Xiang Li immediately pped her hands as sheughed. "Thank you Big Brother!"

    Cai Bisheng knew that the stake was high and that everyone was looking to see how he was going to perform.

    However he knew that he may have an advantage here as long as his opponent was not a power cultivator.

    So he lit a smile. "I am not unlike someone here who dare not dere his name and cultivation realm aloud. Do you dare to ept a challenge from me?"

    Ji Yuan looked at the celestial sword that was in Cai Bisheng''s hand and saw that he was indeed a great saint and was an initial great saint. For his age, this was already quite impressive. No doubt he was here to show off his achievements and there would be countless number of maidens that would fall in love with his charms.

    Unfortunately, he had met Ji Yuan today and Ji Yuan was not only known as the most beautiful bearded cultivator for nothing. Even without his beard, his roguish good looks could turn many maidens into deep flusters.

    Ji Yuan was actually two notches more handsome than Cai Bisheng.

    However most of the beautiful maidens in the crowd only had eyes on Cai Bisheng and that was because he had a celestial sword.

    After all, there was no doubt that Cai Bisheng was the more worthy golden celestial and in the Celestial Realm, a cultivator''s resources are often valued more highly than any good looks because it is the more practical of the two.

    Ji Yuan replied. "I am Ji Yuan and I''m sure that you''ve already known by now. As for my cultivation realm level¡­"

    All of a sudden all the cultivators were now gasping with shock as Ji Yuan had suddenly brandished his saintly divine sword and his profound animus was now pronounced; his cultivation realm level was indeed a peaked great saint!

    Ji Yuan grinned as he waved his saintly divine sword like a shield. "Heh! Do I now have to pronounce my cultivation realm to you?"

    The maidens in Ji Yuan''s party were all giggling now. Somehow they had all expected Ji Yuan to show off his saintly divine sword and they were not as startled as the other cultivators.

    All three hundred cultivators in the vicinity were all stunned when they saw the saintly divine sword in Ji Yuan''s hands.

    "This is¡­really a saint sword?"

    "There is no doubt about it¡­this is really the profound animus of a saint sword¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is really a peaked great saint?!"

    "A divine sword can magnify a cultivator''s cultivation realm to make it pronounced to everyone. Drawing out a powerful divine sword such as a saint-step divine sword will demand all the profound strength of a cultivator and hence, there''s no hiding a cultivator''s exact cultivation realm¡­"

    The maidens among the onlookers were now abandoning their looks of idtry from Cai Bisheng to Ji Yuan now¡­

    Ji Yuanughed as he was aware that there were many maidens that were looking in his way now. "Great Hero Ji Yuan is just my part-time job. I am moremonly known as the Romantic Cultivator Ji Yuan."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Big Brother is a romantic cultivator?!

    All seven maidens in Ji Yuan''s party were now rolling their eyes and they had a look of disgust when they heard Ji Yuan addressing himself as a Romantic Cultivator for the very first time.

    Ling Feiyue muttered almost incoherently. "I don''t think he has yet passed Jiajia''s definition of a romantic cultivator yet¡­"

    Chen Hanhan actually did not know very much about Ji Yuan and she was full of worship for Ji Yuan as she muttered. "My lord is also a romantic cultivator¡­"

    Cai Bisheng was staring nkly at Ji Yuan; it was because he had suddenly realized their disparity was actually very great. Even if Ji Yuan was not a power cultivator but in terms of pure profound strength, Ji Yuan may have already outssed him and he did not want to wait until he had found out about Ji Yuan''s exact profound power.

    If he waited to find out then he would already be a dead cultivator!

    And he did not want to die for no apparent reason at all¡­<sub> </sub>

    Cai Bisheng suddenly realized that he had less than 50% chance.

    To be precise, he had maybe only 25% and even if he had the superior celestial skills, his odds would only be 50%!

    So he said solemnly as he pointed at the ck stele that was nearby. "Do you know why we are all here outside the trial entrance instead of inside the trial entrance?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he did not expect such an answer. "Yea? Why?"

    Now that Cai Bisheng had mentioned it, indeed he did not see anyone going in and out of the trial entrance.

    As a matter of fact, the entrance of the trial entrance looked a little crowded than usual.

    Although it was expected as they went further up the level, there would be more and more cultivators as the number of worlds inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth would get lesser and lesser but there were a little too many of the cultivators that were around.

    Cai Bisheng smirked coldly. "Then why don''t you touch the ck stele to have a little look?"

    Ji Yuan frowned slowly as he walked to the ck stele and he was immediately followed by his party of maidens.

    Together, they touched the ck stele at almost the same time.

    The details of the trial immediately tranted from the ck stele to their divine sense.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately as he looked up at the cliff above him, followed by the seven maidens.

    There was not a trial entrance because that was totally unnecessary.

    That was because this trial required all the cultivators below the cliff to wait for a tree below to reach to the top of the cliff. It would be a process that would take years!

    However this tree was special and was called the Spirit Life Tree and it would feed upon the spiritual force of the vicinity to grow.

    The fastest way to grow this tree was to imbue a cultivator''s spiritual force and profound pills.

    When Ji Yuan had arrived here, the hundreds of cultivators were all trying to grow the Spirit Life Tree. If the Spirit Life Tree was able to reach to the top of the cliff then everyone would be able to clear the trial together.

    It was both a near impossible task and also a risk free task at the same time that could get everyone to clear the trial.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "We don''t have months to waste our time on this trial. I''m leaving now¡­"

    Cai Bishengughed. "So you want to leave now? Are you a coward?"

    Ji Yuan replied. "You want to fight with me?"

    Cai Bisheng smiled coldly, "We are all cultured cultivators. Do we need to resort to a fight? Why don''t we have a wager?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "I am not falling for your trick. So, good bye!"

    "Or are you a chicken?" Cai Bisheng suggested with a wry smile.

    Ji Yuan raised his head to stare at Cai Bisheng. "I would be a chicken? You must be kidding me!"

    Cai Bisheng smiled, "Then why don''t we have a little contest?"

    "What contest?" Ji Yuan asked. "You mean to grow this tree?"

    ? Cai Bisheng chuckled. "Naturally it is the case. Are you on?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "This is a near impossible thing. What if we both can''t grow this tree? Are we even?"

    Cai Bishengughed at the same time, "I didn''t say anything about growing this gigantic tree."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "I''m betting that you can''t grow this gigantic tree." Cai Bisheng smiled.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Do you think that I am stupid? Why don''t you grow this tree yourself? I can''t grow this tree to reach to the very top."

    "You don''t have to." Cai Bisheng smiled. "As long as you can grow this gigantic tree by a little then you are the winner of our challenge. I''m betting that you don''t have the spiritual strength to do so."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "You''re belittling me too much. My spiritual level is actually stronger than most cultivators. Haha. In that case, I shall ept your challenge."

    Cai Bisheng smiled. "In that case, I shall ept your challenge as well. If I win this challenge then you have to leave alone and leave these maidens behind. If I lose, I shall give you my celestial-step divine sword."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "You''re giving me your celestial-step divine sword just like this?"

    He isn''t joking, right?

    How hard it is to grow the gigantic tree?

    Shui Xisi and Little Princess were both humming coldly. "Take the challenge and show him what you are really made of."

    Feng Minyue quickly warned Ji Yuan, "Don''t ept the challenge. This may be a ruse¡­"

    When Ji Yuan saw that Feng Minyue was trying to dissuade him, he did not want to lose any face so heughed. "I''ll take the challenge then."

    All of a sudden Cai Bisheng had disyed a backward swung with his celestial-step divine sword as he generated a powerful profound wave of energy that was directed at the gigantic tree that was behind them.

    There was a thunderous impact that went ''BOOMMMM'' as the gigantic tree was felled by Cai Bisheng.

    Ji Yuan''s jaws immediately dropped to the ground; this was too sneaky¡­

    Cai Bishengughed. "You have lost."

    Not only was Ji Yuan stunned, everyone else was also stunned.

    The challenge had ended as soon as it had begun!

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes nonstop and he was quite speechless¡­

    Even Xiang Li was dumbfounded as she screamed angrily. "Big Brother, he cheated¡­son of a bastard¡­"

 Chapter 256 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (4)

    Cai Bisheng was now grinning. "So Romantic Cultivator Ji Yuan, you have lost."

    "ording to our wager, you''re to leave these maidens here before you go away. You''re not to take them with you!"

    There was a triumphant look that was in Cai Bisheng''s eyes as he grinned at Ji Yuan.

    He had managed to outwit this Ji Yuan in front of the hundreds of cultivators here and in the future, his renown would surely resound throughout the Celestial Realm!

    p Even if that did not happen but his renowned would surely be resounded throughout the entire Eastern Celestial Fraternity because there were dozens of cultivators were from his celestial fraternity in this ce.</anda>

    He, Cai Bisheng had defeated a peaked great saint with a saintly divine sword and had rescued several pitiful beautiful maidens that were being held in sexual depravity by this Ji Yuan.

    Not only was Ji Yuan stunned, the hundreds of cultivators presented were also stunned and as well as the maidens in his party¡­

    Ji Yuan felt as though he had been given a tight p and he had lost a lot of face in front of Feng Minyue¡­

    But there was no way he would ept the wager because it was obvious a cheat.

    Naturally he could leave his maidens here and leave, knowing very well the maidens would follow him nevertheless.

    But he hates to lose and he hates to be green by a self-righteous cultivator.

    Therefore he intended to fight back.

    Unknown to everyone, Bai Qianfeng was smiling quietly as she looked behind Ji Yuan; no one understands Ji Yuan better than her. After all, they had been inside the Dream Trial for a long time.

    If Cai Bisheng gives any hint of trying to steal Ji Yuan''s women then he would soon have a visit from the God of Vengeance very soon in the form of Ji Yuan.

    Currently he was bordering very close to Ji Yuan''s limits.

    As a matter of fact, Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily to himself; why did he want my women to stay while I am off limits?!

    Xiang Li who could sense Ji Yuan''s emotions was muttering. "Oh no¡­Big Brother''s soul sea is full of unstable emotions now¡­"

    Ji Yuan pointed to the fallen tree as he said coldly. "You call this a wager by felling down that spirit tree? Then how am I supposed topete with you?"

    Cai Bisheng smirked coldly. "That is your problem and not my problem. Are you upset?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Cai Bisheng and many of the cultivators were secretly thinking; if Ji Yuan could not temper his anger then the advantage would go to his opponent. In a fight, it is important to beposed and be freed from all distractions so that they could focus on dismantling the attacking strokes of their opponents.

    Ji Yuan frowned and his voice was trembling. "What if I do not concede?"

    Cai Bisheng smiled coldly. "You can choose not to concede but I''m afraid that you will be theughing stock of everyone and in your celestial fraternity in the future. Or are you nning to kill us all to silence us?"

    With a wry smile, he added. "Naturally you will not because you''re great hero and a great saint with a reputation to boot."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    His fingers were now trembling because he had almost raised his sword against Cai Bisheng.

    Actually Ji Yuan did not care about his reputation but it was the loss of his face in front of the seven maidens that caused him to be infuriated.

    However he was still able to restraint himself as he coolly analyzed the situation that he was in.

    But after quickly thinking over, he could only mutter in weak resignation. "Xiang Li, this is an important lesson for us. In life, there are no smooth curves. Since we have nothing to lose and my women are still my women, we have to ept this small setback. I am no stranger to defeats."<sub> </sub>

    This was the truth.

    Ji Yuan could not be a sword saint if he had never lost a fight before. Only if a person had lost a fight and survived it, could he be even stronger.

    A fighter that had never been defeated before in a story was just tall tale. Because he would never be able to be stronger than his opponents if he had never lost before.

    "Huh Xiang Li?"

    There was no reply from Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    All of a sudden a saintly maiden with a faint glowing blue aura had suddenly appeared in front of the fallen tree.

    This saintly maiden was stately and she had an enticing demeanor as she began to whisper gently to the fallen tree. "I know that you can hear me because you are the trial spirit, am I right? Please help my Big Brother to win. I am willing to do an exchange with you. Please¡­"

    Ji Yuan and the other maidens in his party were startled; that stately maiden was indeed Xiang Li and she had assumed a physical form.

    As for the other cultivators, they were in awe of Xiang Li sudden appearance and it was as though an alluring goddess had suddenly appeared out of the blue.

    Many were asking;

    "Who is this maiden?"

    "Is she among us earlier?"

    "I can''t remember seeing her earlier¡­"

    "Such an alluring goddess can''t be missed by anyone¡­"

    "Why is her profound animus has a hint of blue?!"

    "Golden celestials all have golden animus¡­"

    "Is this her special divine skill or is it because she is mustering her spirit entity?"

    The entire vicinity was suddenly glowing with warm blue glows and many of the cultivators could feel a positive warmth energy coursing through them.

    The source of the warm blue glows were flowing out of Xiang Li and all the cultivators were staring at the unknown stately maiden that was dressed in a revealing dress with a stunned look; it was because many of the cultivators that had injuries were now rapidly healing. Even the cultivators that were not injured had their profound strength restored!

    What was going on?!

    Many of the cultivators were stunned by what was going on¡­

    Most importantly, who was this stately alluring maiden that had appeared from out of the blue?

    And who was this Big Brother that she was muttering?

    No one could recognize which celestial fraternity that she was from because she was only dressed in a simple but revealing robe¡­

    Ji Yuan was muttered silently; I should get Xiang Li some proper clothing. This is so embarrassing¡­

    All of a sudden the fallen tree was suddenly re-growing at a rapid pace and had suddenly tripled in size, growing upward at a rapid pace before finally growing to the top of the cliff!

    Everyone was startled¡­

    No, stunned because all of a sudden a gentle voice descended upon the heavens to inform everyone. "You''ve all cleared the trial. You will be taken to a spatial space for your reward¡­"

    Ji Yuan was stunned and he was even panicky. "No wait! Undo it! Xiang Li, no! I don''t want to clear this stupid trial¡­"

    But it was toote as a bright light had suddenly teleported him and everyone away¡­

 Chapter 257 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (5)

    Ji Yuan soon found himself in a dark spatial space.

    By now he was all familiar with this dark spatial space as the ce for him to im his trial rewards.

    A gentle feminine voice said slowly. "You are the first cultivator to have ovee this trial. Based on your contribution for this trial, you also have the most contribution hence you shall im the best reward. Because of you, all the others will also pass the trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan protested quickly with a thunderous shout. "Wait a minute! This trial doesn''t count at all! There shall be no exchange with Xiang Li to ovee this trial. I want you to destroy the spirit tree immediately."

    Xiang Li popped out of Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she returned a shock look. "But why Big Brother? We''ve won! We have won!!!"

    Ji Yuan turned to Xiang Li to say solemnly. "I want to win through my own efforts and not because of you or the others. This Cai Bisheng really got me even before the challenge starts. I''ve nothing to say about this. A real man is someone that can ept defeats gracefully and we don''t have to win all the time."

    Then he sighed heavily. "Not at your expenses, Xiang Li."

    Xiang Li asked curiously. "I didn''t have to do anything¡­"

    Ji Yuan was already shouting loudly. "There shall be no exchange. This trial is voided!"

    The gentle feminine voice answered. "There is actually no exchange. I''m just helping Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er, that''s all."

    "You know Xiang Li?" Ji Yuan asked curiously and he had also turned to look at Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li had a nk expression as she muttered. "I don''t know this trial spirit!"

    The gentle feminine voice answered mncholy. "Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er will never remember anything that is pertaining to her past. As a matter of fact, she will soon forget about this conversation as soon as her past is mentioned¡­"

    Xiang Li protested immediately. "Who says so? I''ve a good memory!"

    The gentle feminine voice said with great mncholy. "It is an eternal curse that can''t be removed no matter how many cycles that she has been reborn. Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er is doomed to lead a sad eternal life of which she can''t remember her past because she merely exists to help her masters to achieve their objectives."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly. "Xiang Li is never a tool and I don''t want to use her to fulfill any objective of mine."

    Xiang Li nodded as she raised her fists angrily. "What are you talking about? Big Brother will never use me as a tool!"

    The gentle feminine voice paused briefly before she echoed. "Your soul link with Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er is still strongly bonded. This really isn''t your wish to win the challenge?"

    "I''ll be damned if this is my wish." Ji Yuan said with great indignant.

    "This¡­this is Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er own wish¡­" The gentle feminine voice appeared to be startled.

    Ji Yuan said firmly. "So can you void the trial results? I don''t want anything to happen to Xiang Li. I will get a big headache if she turns into a loli again."

    "The result of the trial won''t be voided. It is because it is also my own wish to help Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er." The gentle feminine voice slowly echoed.

    Ji Yuan was startled. "Huh? Why are you helping us? Erm, I mean why are you helping Xiang Li?"<sub> </sub>

    The gentle feminine voice had a soft sigh before replying. "Don''t you know that she is the greatest spirit in the Three Known Realms? She is the goddess that is above all the trial spirits and spirit entities. She is the first immortal spirit. Sadly, she cannot remember anything."

    Xiang Li protested. "I always remember¡­"

    "You will soon forget about this." The gentle feminine voice echoed mncholy. "You are our true goddess but you are cursed to experience the cycles of life and death over and over again because you are the daughter of the great beyond goddess."

    "I am Xiang Li." Xiang Liughed softly.

    The gentle feminine replied. "Because of who she is, I am willing to grant Fairy Xiang''xiang Li''mu''er her wish as long as it is within my ability to aplish."

    "So there is no exchange?" Ji Yuan asked to confirm his doubts.

    "There will be no exchange."

    The gentle feminine voice sighed before continuing. "I should not be revealing too much because I don''t know if you''re a good or a bad person. It is my misguided mistake earlier that caused me to believe that you have been granted a wish and I''ve actually revealed too much. My only existence here is just to oversee the trials. Therefore I shall grant you your reward¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan said all of a sudden.

    "What is it?" The gentle feminine voice asked.

    Ji Yuan immediately answered. "I just have a wager with another cultivator. He has promised me his celestial sword should I win the wager. And it seems that I''ve won the wager. I want his celestial sword."

    There was a pause before the gentle feminine voice echoed. "I''m afraid that I can''t help you because I cannot forcefully remove another cultivator''s divine sword."

    Ji Yuan asked. "Am I the first cultivator to obtain the reward?"

    "Naturally you''re. All the others are waiting behind you." The gentle feminine voice said.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Maybe some cultivators are not as fussy as me and they are able to obtain their rewards earlier than me?"

    "Time works differently here. You can take as long as you like to decide but only a blink of an eye will pass and you will still be the first to decide your reward." The gentle feminine voice replied.

    Ji Yuan was grinning all of a sudden. "Didn''t you say that you want to help Xiang Li? Do you know that Xiang Li will be so sad if I didn''t get my deserved trophy after I''ve won my challenge?"

    Xiang Li nodded as she pretended to be really angry. "Indeed I will be very sad! Not just sad but extremely upset as well!"

    The gentle feminine voice echoed weakly. "I''ve never met anyone like you before. Are you trying to bargain with me?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Surely you have also heard of our wager. You are the trial spirit after all. Are you going to let something so unfair to happen in your trial?"

    The gentle feminine voice sighed weakly. "So what do you propose then?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he looked at Xiang Li. "I want to take my vendetta naturally¡­"

 Chapter 258 The Second Trial Of The 3rd Level (6)

    Cai Bisheng had found himself in a dark spatial space when he had opened his eyes.

    But that did not stop the excitements that were in his eyes. It was because after this trial, he would be promoted to the fourth level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    Moreover today he had made a fool out of Ji Yuan.

    Even though he had won the wager against Ji Yuan but he did not have to forfeit his celestial sword and he had evenpleted a most tricky trial.

    He was actually quite pleased with his performance today.

    Even though he had lost the wager but it was obvious that Ji Yuan had only won the challenge because there was a strange alluring maiden that had suddenly appeared to help him.

    He was already drooling with lustful excitement when he had recalled the strange alluring maiden.

    "I wonder who she is?"

    All of a sudden a hoarse voice crackled. "You''re now in this ce because you''ve ovee the trial and are entitled to im your rightful reward."

    Cai Bishengughed. "May I know what my reward is?"

    "It is naturally something that will astonish you to no ends." The voice answered.

    Cai Bisheng smiled. "I''ve seen countless profound treasures and have countless profound treasures myself. This is only the third level trial. Surely the profound treasures are nothing to be amazed¡­"

    "You are wrong! Very wrong!" The hoarse voice answered. "Even though this may be only a third level trial but this is a most difficult trial. Naturally the reward forpleting this trial will be amazing."

    Cai Bisheng smiled weakly. "There are more than three hundred cultivators that havepleted the trial at the same time. Are you saying that all three hundred of the cultivators will all have amazing rewards?"

    The hoarse voice answered. "There are only three cultivators that will receive top rewards. That is Xiang Li, Ji Yuan and you¡­"

    "Xiang Li? Who is she? Is she the maiden that has restored the spirit tree earlier?" Cai Bisheng asked curiously.

    "Indeed. However she has decided to forfeit her reward." The hoarse voice answered.

    Cai Bisheng asked curiously. "Forfeit the reward? Why?"

    "She felt bad about interrupting the honorable challenge between Ji Yuan and you. That''s why she has decided to forfeit her reward." The hoarse voice replied nonchntly.

    Cai Bisheng inhaled softly before he asked. "Then between that Ji Yuan and I, who is the first?"

    "Naturally it is you. Ji Yuan is ater and he didn''t contribute to the growing of the spirit tree." The hoarse voice answered.

    "Wait a minute." Cai Bisheng asked curiously. "If that Ji Yuan did not contribute anything then how did he manage to get to the top three?"

    The hoarse voice: ¡­

    Shit¡­he found a loophole¡­

    The hoarse voice was naturally Ji Yuan and he had requested for the trial spirit entity to allow him to pretend to be the trial spirit.

    There was a trade-off naturally and Ji Yuan had to forfeit his reward for this trial.

    This was not an issue for Ji Yuan naturally.

    He quickly said in a pretended hoarse voice. "The reward that is given to Xiang Li is actually given to you and Ji Yuan as the two of you are thest two to have taken the challenge."

    "I see!" Cai Bishengughed as he nodded unsuspectingly.

    "So what is my reward then?"

    "You will be given two options. One, a sword spirit for your celestial sword and two, your celestial-step divine sword will be upgrade to a half-step immortal divine sword." The hoarse voice echoed.

    Cai Bisheng began to ponder immediately and he could barely contain his excitement.

    A sword spirit was extremely difficult to obtain and a half-step immortal sword was even more precious¡­

    Although both was a difficult choice to pick but an immortal divine sword was a billion times even harder to obtain.

    As much as Cai Bisheng had wanted to obtain a sword spirit to improve his cultivation strength butpared to an immortal sword that could greatly enhance his profound power immediately, the immortal sword was clearly the winner.

    Therefore he answered without any hesitation. "The immortal sword then."

    "Lift your celestial sword then and I will upgrade it into an immortal sword. Let it float to me."

    Cai Bisheng did as he was told as he lifted his celestial and let it hover in mid-air.

    He was waiting in eager anticipation and his heart was pounding nonstop with excitement as he waited for his celestial sword to be transformed into an immortal sword.

    As for Ji Yuan, he wasughing silently.

    It did not matter if Cai Bisheng had picked the first or second reward because Ji Yuan would request for him to surrender his celestial sword.

    He shed a grin as he said to Xiang Li. "Now it is your turn to do your part."

    Xiang Li chuckled with delight in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she quickly wiped away Cai Bisheng''s profound signature from his celestial sword.

    Cai Bisheng did not suspect anything even when his celestial sword had disappeared into the darkness of the spatial space.

    The real trial spirit entity had sucked the celestial sword by dematerializing it into Ji Yuan''s hands.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed silently as he caught hold of the celestial sword. "Even though you''re troublesome to obtain but in the end I''ve finally obtained my deserved reward from that rascal."

    He quickly disyed his fake voiceover again. "Now you have to choose your portals."

    Cai Bisheng appeared to be startled. "What about my celestial¡­immortal sword?!"

    "Naturally it will be given to you once you have entered the portal. It takes time to transform your celestial sword into an immortal sword." The hoarse voice said nonchntly.

    Cai Bisheng said weakly "But¡­"

    "Do you doubt the trial spirit? Do you know that the trial spirit cannot lie?" The hoarse voice said with great indignant.

    Cai Bisheng quickly returned to his sense; that is right. A trial spirit will never lie¡­I have better not doubt the trial spirit or he will give me an inferior immortal sword because I have my doubts about his words¡­

    So he quickly said humbly and with great politeness. "My apologies. I am just wondering only. May the trial spirit not take offense at my foolish words. I have never for a moment doubt the trial spirit."

    The hoarse voice echoed deeply. "If you have developed any doubts then I shall destroy your celestial sword right in front of your eyes. Luckily you have not."

    Cai Bisheng smiled weakly. "Of course, of course."

    All of a sudden there were three portals in front of him. One red, one green and one blue.

    There are three portals?

    Just as Cai Bisheng was wondering why there were three portals, the hoarse voice echoed deeply. "The red one will take you to the next level. The green one will take you into a temporal stasis until the trial here has ended. The blue portal is a little special. It will lead you to where Xiang Li is."

    Cai Bisheng was suddenly smiling. "If I pick the blue portal, will it screw up my chance? After all, I am supposed to go to the fourth level after this trial here."

    "Xiang Li will be going to the next level as well." The hoarse voice answered.

    Cai Bisheng wasughing all of a sudden. "In that case, I will choose the blue portal."

    He was thinking; why do all the good things have to happen to me? Heh!

    In his mind, he was already lecherous thinking of riding Xiang Li and making her into his woman¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had heard Cai Bisheng''s choice.

    It was because he was fine with just taking Cai Bisheng''s celestial sword. But when Cai Bisheng had picked the blue portal, he was instantly defensive about Xiang Li.

    He was thinking; even though I am only treating Xiang Li as my little sister and this isn''t actually greening me but this Cai Bisheng is just a wolf in sheep clothing. If I don''t teach him a lesson then there isn''t any justice in this world. I am giving you a chance to repent but you have crossed me time and time again¡­

    When Cai Bisheng had entered the blue portal, he was instantly shocked.

    Instead of Xiang Li, he saw a grinning Ji Yuan in another dark spatial space and in Ji Yuan''s hands were a saintly divine sword as well as his own celestial divine sword!

    Cai Bisheng immediately disyed his profound strength to take back his celestial sword but to his utter surprise, his celestial sword was not responding to his profound animus. As a matter of fact, he could not even sense any of his profound animus from his celestial sword!

    What was going on?

    But he never got the chance to find out.

    It was because with two quick double swing of the two divine swords that were in Ji Yuan''s hands, Cai Bisheng was quickly cut down by Ji Yuan.

    When he had died, he could not believe how easily Ji Yuan had cut him down.

    And just before he had died, he saw a brilliant sword spirit that was shing forward with his divine sense. For a moment, he had thought that he was mistaken when he thought that he had seen two sword spirits¡­

    But he never had the chance to ponder because in the next instant he was dead.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had suddenly cut down Cai Bisheng just like this and he had suddenly noticed that his sword spirit was glowing brilliantly.

    He had suddenly realized that Xiang Li had manifested herself and had enhanced his sword spirit.

    The only thing that Xiang Li could empower was naturally the spirit entities and sword spirit was also considered to be a kind of spirit entity.

    Xiang Li was raising her fist in rage. "How dare he have dirty thoughts on me!"

    Ji Yuan had never thought that his sword spirit would be this powerful.

    Naturally at this point of time, he did not know that he actually had two sword spirits as one. And Xiang Li was empowering the two sword spirits.

    The second sword spirit that Ji Yuan had obtained earlier was actually merged sessful into his original sword spirit.

    The profound power of thebined sword spirits coupled with the divine swords were so great that itpletely shattered Cai Bisheng''s defensive profound aura and his golden body.

    Even though Ji Yuan hated Cai Bisheng and he merely had wanted to cripple him but he had never expected that Xiang Li would suddenly intervene and identally causing him to kill Cai Bisheng.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Why did you do that for?"

    Xiang Li replied sheepishly. "Big Brother, he is a bad guy! Why can''t we kill him?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before answering, "You should let him suffer first. Sometimes making a person suffer is worse than death itself. We ought to make him wish that he was never born."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently. "Because no one is gonna to green me¡­even if she is my little sister¡­"

 Chapter 259 The Fourth Level (1)

    When Ji Yuan had exited the trial portal to the fourth level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, he found himself standing on a rocky perch that was surrounded by tall ck cliffs.

    "Where am I?" Ji Yuan muttered.

    But he got no time to ponder first.

    It was because he had to do something else first.

    "Is anyone here?" He quickly disyed a loud profound shout that could resonate his voice for miles around.

    He silently prayed that Xiang Li''s magic would work again¡­

    As he waited, he was sighing to Xiang Li. "Xiang Li, next time don''t aid me unless I''ve asked you for help. I really don''t want you to have any blood in your hands."

    Xiang Li answered curiously. "But if I don''t help Big Brother, won''t my Big Brother be in grave danger?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "It is not so easy to kill me."

    But at the same time, he was muttering; this Cai Bisheng is really too weak to have died so instantly.

    Actually Cai Bisheng was not weak.

    Ji Yuan had been lying in ambush behind the portal for Cai Bisheng.

    As soon as Cai Bisheng had entered through the portal, Ji Yuan had surprise him with a sudden attack.

    Because Cai Bisheng''s first reaction was to expend his profound strength to retrieve his celestial sword instead of dealing with Ji Yuan''s attacks first. He had made a tactical mistake.

    Even though it may only be a blink of an eye but it was a mistake that could cost him his life because he had not expected that Ji Yuan''s sword stroke could be so swift. Moreover Ji Yuan had a saint sword as well as a sword spirit.

    Cai Bisheng could only mutter silently before his golden skeleton was torn apart. "What a swift sword¡­"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly to Xiang Li. "What if I am dueling with Jiajia, do you want me to kill her by ident?"

    Xiang Li chuckled. "Of course not. You can''t win Jiajia and I''m not helping you against Jiajia."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Whose side are you on?" He frowned.

    "Of course it is Jiajia. She is one of the favorite heroines." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "Be careful what you''ve wished for. You may identally kill me when you''re on Jiajia''s side¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could hear shouts from all around him as his mutterings were interrupted.

    He had of course recognized these shouts and very quickly, seven familiar maidens had quickly emerged from all around him and they were all smiling behind their veils when they saw Ji Yuan.

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "My lord!"

    "What are everyone''s rewards?"

    The seven maidens quickly interacted with soft jovialughter as they gathered around Ji Yuan.

    "This is what I''ve got¡­"

    "I wonder what Ji Yuan got?"

    "Ji Yuan, what did you get?"

    Ji Yuan''s heart was filled with great warmth when he saw them again.

    He could barely contain his excitement as heughed jovially. "What if I tell you that I did not get anything from the trial, will you believe me?"

    "Lies!"

    "Liar."

    "Ji Yuan is always lying to us¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I really didn''t get anything from the trial spirit¡­

    "Ji Yuan." Ling Feiyue said solemnly. "That White Saint Cai Bisheng is really too outrageous. We must definitely teach him a lesson and seize his celestial sword even if it is divine harmonized to him."

    Shui Xisi nodded with teething rage as well. "Indeed! He had dared to cheat in front of us!"<sub> </sub>

    "He may think he is smart but he has earned himself several powerful enemies!" Little Princess was also expressing her unhappiness.

    Even Bai Qianfeng was saying. "We will hunt him down in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and seize his celestial sword. This is his price for trying to show off in front of us."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Actually we should be a little forgiving to our enemies. He is just a petty man. There is no need to hunt him down."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly. "This is not our way. I am not an orthodox cultivator. If my lord has a merciful heart then please allow Qianfeng to punish him in your ce!"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly to himself; I''ve already killed him¡­it is better that I don''t let them know. They''re not going to believe me anyway because I can''t exin how I''ve killed Cai Bisheng myself because the entire ount is too unbelievable to be believed by anyone anyway."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly. "Don''t forget that I am an unorthodox cultivator so I will surely hold grudges."

    "Even if you''re not an unorthodox cultivator, you are a woman and all women hold grudges." Ji Yuan muttered.

    "What did you just say?" Ling Feiyue asked him.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Nothing. I am just saying that I just saw Cai Bisheng earlier and he has just given me his celestial sword."

    "Howe he is with you? He is your best friend?" Ling Feiyue asked him.

    But before she and the other maidens could ask Ji Yuan more, he had already taken out the celestial-step divine sword that he had taken from Cai Bisheng.

    "Feiyue, this celestial sword is for you." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Ling Feiyue gasped with shock and she was flushing awkwardly. "It is really for me? Why don''t you give it to the others? This celestial sword is too precious for me to ept."

    Little Princess smiled. "Sister Feiyue, you may have it. I won''t be envious."

    Feng Minyue was also smiling. She did not care for any material profound treasures even if it was a saint sword that was put in front of her.

    As for Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi, they were not envious as they already had a simr if not higher grade divine sword.

    Wan''Er and Hanhan were actually envious when they saw that Ji Yuan was presenting a celestial sword to Ling Feiyue.

    It was a normal behavior to feel envious as anyone else would feel the same.

    Shui Xisi chuckled. "So Ji Yuan, what did you get for your reward? Are you keeping your reward as a trump card?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he threw Shui Xisi a spatial ring. "I got this spatial ring from the trial spirit. You may have the first choice of pick. All of you can take from this spatial ring. Haha."

    He was being generous because he had actually looted it from Cai Bisheng and had asked Xiang Li to wipe away all the profound signatures that belonged to Cai Bisheng.

    He did not even have the time to check its content yet.

    But since Shui Xisi and the other maidens were pestering him for the trial reward, he knew that he had to show them something outstanding or else he would have a lot of exining to do.

    Ji Yuan continued tough. "Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi was soon gasping as she showed the contents of the spatial ring to the other maidens. "There are so many profound treasures in this ring? It is all for us? There are three divine swords inside¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was also gasping. "And this profound treasure is worth a million high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Little Princess was gasping. "Really! Wow, it seems Ji Yuan really got something good this time¡­"

    Feng Minyue, Chen Hanhan, Mu Wan''Er and Bai Qianfeng were also gasping softly as they could not believe how generous Ji Yuan really was.

    As Ji Yuan listened to their gasping sounds, he was gulping his dry throat with great remorse as he thought; did Feiyue just say that there is an item that is worth a million high grade spirit stones¡­

    He had actually wanted to snatch the spatial ring back but his manly pride kept him from doing so¡­

    "Xiang Li, why didn''t you tell me that there are so many good profound treasures inside?" Ji Yuan was frowning.

    Xiang Li answered him in his soul sea. "But Big Brother, these treasures are just so and so. They''re not really worthy anything at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    That was the reply when he had tasked Xiang Li to check the spatial ring for profound treasures. He had thought that he could trust Xiang Li because Xiang Li was actually a good appraisal.

    He could only mutter weakly; I am not going to trust Xiang Li ever again. It isn''t because she is a bad appraisal. She is just too good that everything is worthless in her eyes¡­

    Although Ji Yuan did get the much needed wealth he had always desired but he had scored yet another high score with the maidens in his party.

    "Ji Yuan is really so generous¡­"

    "It is really for us?"

    "This looks like multiple rewards¡­"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly as he rubbed his chin; this Cai Bisheng is really a rich cultivator. He really didn''t live in vain¡­because he has finally found a new master to all the profound treasures that he had collected in his short life¡­

 Chapter 260 The Fourth Level (2)

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi wereughing softly as they strolled together.

    They were actually alone in the mountain wilderness, away from their main party.

    The main reason why they were alone was because they were actually ''scouting'' for their party.

    Shui Xisi had a light flush on her lovely cheeks because she was finally allowed to scout alone with Ji Yuan.

    The other maidens had actually purposely given her the chance to scout with Ji Yuan because they all knew that she was waiting for such an opportunity.

    As Wan''Er and Hanhan were the new additions to their party, they had no clue what the ''scouting'' actually entails.

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she eyed Ji Yuan. "So, what are you going to do next?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he chuckled teasingly. "Naturally I am going to pick a direction for us to scout."

    "Is that all that is going on in your pea size brain?" Shui Xisi returned a tease.

    Ji Yuan pretended to be annoyed as he frowned.  "Isn''t it the most natural thing since this is our objective?"

    Xiang Li could not resist chipping in even though her voice could only be heard by Ji Yuan as she was hiding in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Big Brother! She wants you to kiss her. I''m betting my everything on this¡­"

    "As though you got any possession," Ji Yuan interrupted her.

    Xiang Li giggled jovially. "I''ve my clothes."

    Ji Yuan almost choked as he coughed out all of a sudden, trying to imagine Xiang Li naked in front of him.

    When Shui Xisi saw that he was suddenly choking, she growled softly. "Do you have to feel so exaggerated disgusted? Men are all so frivolous. You sound like I''m courting you instead. Listen up, I have countless number of men that are always wooing me."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I believe¡­"

    He could not tell Sisi that he was being distracted by Xiang Li.

    Shui Xisi inhaled softly as she looked at the surrounding terrains. "We''re now on the fourth level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth now. The upper half of theb won''t be easy. We actually don''t have to force ourselves to traverse to the higher up level. It is better to live to fight another day."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said quietly. "I have to go to the top level to have a look. The rest of you can remain."

    Shui Xisi looked at him curiously. "Are you crazy?"

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before he said solemnly. "Ever since I''ve arrived on this fourth level, I have sensed the presence of a powerful opponent that is waiting for me. This is a fight that can''t be avoided."

    Shui Xisi: ???

    "The presence of a powerful opponent that is waiting for you?" Shui Xisiughed softly as she rolled her eyes. "Are you sure? Why you?"

    All of a sudden there was a dark countenance that had suddenly dawned upon Ji Yuan.<sub> </sub>

    He narrowed his golden eyes as he looked at the sandy desert that was ahead of him before he nodded slowly. "I can sense his malevolent air. He is waiting for me."

    Shui Xisi giggled. "You are a great saint and we''ve so many great saintesses in the party. If he is just a single foe, we can help to dispatch him for you."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly. "This foe is very, very strong. We may not be able to defeat him."

    "I don''t believe." Shui Xisi shook her head with a smile. "You just don''t want our help because it serves your manly pride to fight your battle alone¡­"

    Shui Xisi gasped all of a sudden when Ji Yuan had suddenly ced his hand on her shoulder. "Sisi, I am serious. I''ve never known fear before but ever since I''ve arrived on this level, my body has been trembling. I know that this opponent is very strong and he is waiting for me. He knows that I am here."

    "How did he know that you''re here? You''re joking, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he continued to look at the sandy desert that was beyond the lofty mountains. "His malevolent air is just there. I must confront him."

    "Wait a minute!" Shui Xisi gasped softly. "If you know that he is in that direction and he is such a strong opponent, isn''t it wiser to go into the other direction instead?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as his fingers trembled on Shui Xisi''s shoulder. "I think that he may be an immortal¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had lifted his divine sword against Shui Xisi, causing her to be startled as she stumbled backward.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?!..."

    But before she could ask Ji Yuan, there were dozens of falling boulders from the cliffs above and she was forced to evade out of the way.

    She could only see Ji Yuan''s shadow speeding down into the sandy desert below as his voice echoed to her. "Sisi, I love you. You are a wonderful maiden. Don''t follow me¡­"

    By the time she had freed herself from the falling boulders that were caused by Ji Yuan''s sword energy bursts and was about to follow Ji Yuan, a furious sandstorm that covered the entire desert had suddenly appeared from nowhere and was blowing with great fury.

    This forced a startled Shui Xisi to take shelter under the cover of a crevice as she shook her head with disbelief. "Where did this sandstorme from all of a sudden?"

    As Ji Yuan sped into the desert, he was trembling and he was muttering incoherently. "Xiang Li, your Big Brother will protect you. No one is going to take you away from me¡­"

    Xiang Li was also startled by the sudden change in events. "Big Brother, where are we going?"

    "Did you sense the numerous sword energies arrays that are in the desert ahead of us?" Ji Yuan inhaled solemnly. "He is there and he has arrived sooner than I''ve expected."

    "This sandstorm is caused by his sword energies¡­" Xiang Li muttered. "I can sense his presence now. He is¡­a deste immortal¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. "Xiang Li, are you afraid?"

    Xiang Li shook her head with a yful grin. "I''m not."

    "Good." Ji Yuanughed as he brandished his divine sword as he forced his way into the sword energies arrays that had suddenly sprang up all around him.

    "Whoever you are, don''t you think that these sword energies arrays are pointless to disy in front of a sword saint?"

 Chapter 261 The Death God Mingwang (1)

    Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, do you think that Big Sister Sisi will be able to follow us?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "I''d rather not. Moreover, I doubt that she will be able toe after us in that sandstorm."

    "Why not?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "That''s because she is a tidy maiden who likes her cleanliness and there is no way that she will dirty herself by dashing into the sandstorm after us." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Why won''t she?" Xiang Li asked with a perplexed look.

    "Haha. That''s because she is not the rugged adventurer like me. Great saintesses like Sisi will prefer to use their profound animus to shelter themselves from the ravaging sands rather than getting themselves crawling with creeping sands from the sandstorm."

    "I don''t understand. It is only sand." Xiang Li blinked her eyes. "When the sandstorm is over, all you need to do is to just flip your clothes and all the sands will be loosened on the ground, right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately. "That is because you have only one piece of clothing and you can turn yourself into an ethereal form. You don''t even need to worry about loose sands or creepy stuff in your head hair."

    Xiang Li giggled. "That''s right. I am not afraid of sands!"

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently. "I am talking about Sisi, not you¡­"

    He began to ignore Xiang Li''s small talks as he dashed into the towering dark shapes ahead.

    He soon found himself walking into a sandy pathway that was surrounded by tall towering cliffs.

    He shook the sands off his robe as he shouted. "So while I was battling the sandstorms, you''re actually taking shelter here. Who are you? Why don''t you show yourself up and stop being such a chicken of a warrior."

    The killing malevolent was extremely suffocating here and it was obvious to Ji Yuan that his foe was waiting for him in this ce.

    "I am here." A dark shadowughed coldly on the top of a cliff before descending in a sh in front of Ji Yuan.

    A dark robe cultivator with a donned white mask was seen and he had a wicked ck sword shing in front of him.

    Ji Yuan was startled by the white mask dark robe cultivator''s movements and he was further startled by the ck divine sword that was in his opponent''s hands; it was an immortal-step divine sword!

    "You havee." The dark robe cultivator greeted him.

    "Indeed, I''vee. Why are you donning a mask? Why don''t you show me your true appearance?" Ji Yuan hummed coldly.

    The dark robe cultivator replied coldly. "Do you think you deserve to see the true face of the Death God Mingwang, the Dark God of Death?"

    Ji Yuan asked cautiously. "You are a deste immortal?"

    "Isn''t it obvious?" The Death God Mingwang said coldly.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as he sunk in the profound aura that was emanating from the dark sword that was in his opponent''s hand; peaked eighth cultivation realm!

    He slowly said. "I''ve heard that the cultivation realm of the immortals will be suppressed in the celestial realm. So how is it that you are able to disy your cultivation realm to the eighth realm without a bacsh?"

    The Death God Mingwang said coldly. "Eighth realm? Don''t you know that I am actually a ninth realm cultivator? Although the profound strength of the Great God Pangu is formidable but the restriction can''tst forever. It is no longer able to restrict me anymore."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Are you saying that you''re able to disy your profound strength to its entirety?"

    ? He shivered to think what the profound strength of a ninth realm cultivator would be. It would definitely be more powerful than his most powerful profound techniques¡­

    The Death God Mingwangughed coldly. "You''re indeed bold to havee alone. I''ve thought that you may want to bring your friends along with you."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Since your target is only me, why must I bother the rest? What do you want to do with me? Why should a mighty deste immortal like yourself want to dirty your hands against a mere celestial like myself?"

    "Indeed you are just a mere lowly celestial." The Death God Mingwangughed coldly behind his white mask.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden the Death God Mingwang had raised his dark sword at Ji Yuan. Such was the profound power that was suddenly being disyed that Ji Yuan was forced back suddenly as he was mmed onto the cliff with a thunderous impact!

    "This is the disparity between our profound powers. Even though you have a saint-step sword, our disparity is simply too great."

    Ji Yuan coughed out a bout of fresh blood as he struggled against the profound martial forces that were suppressing him and he could feel a suffocating pressure that was upon him that refused to go away.<sub> </sub>

    "I don''t know how you have a saint-step divine sword in your hand," The Death God Mingwang said coldly. "But no one has ever crossed my path to live another day because I''m the God of Death."

    Ji Yuan was truly astonished at the profound might that was suppressing him now as he mustered with all his profound strength to free himself of the suffocating pressure that was upon him.

    Even though his present profound strength coupled with his saintly divine sword could enable him to muster profound power to match the profound power of an eighth realm cultivator but at this moment, his defenses were being ripped apart and he could not muster his profound strength¡­

    That was because he was not a power cultivator and he could not resist a sudden profound power attack that could neutralize his profound defenses!

    Even though most saint and great saint power cultivators were unable to defeat him easily now but he was now dealing with a eighth realm power cultivator that could suppress his profound aura simply because his state of divinity was greater than him!

    Ji Yuan had suddenly broken into cold sweat as he thought. "Am I to die in this ce?"

    Even Xiang Li was panicking. "Big Brother, shall I go out and help you to punch him?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No, thank Xiang Li and keep quiet please. If you go out with your physical form, you''ll be ripped apart too."

    "But Big Brother¡­"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said. "Be quiet. Let me think please¡­"

    "Why don''t you give up on your struggles and just surrender? A quick death is better than a painful death." The Death God Mingwang smirked eerily.

    "I don''t understand¡­" Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he raised his divine sword over his body to shield himself from the dozens of flickering sword energies that were raining upon him like mini meteors.

    Not only was he being suppressed by the profound aura of his opponent but there were dozens of sword energies that were raining upon him in all directions to sap away his profound strength and forcing him to redirect all his profound strength into his profound defenses, unable to muster any spare profound strength for a counter-attack.

    "Eh." Ji Yuan mustered his voice to say. "I really don''t understand¡­you''re an immortal cultivator and I''m merely a lowly celestial. This is exactly what you''ve just said. Why did you want to dirty your hands and reputation to kill a lowly celestial like me?"

    The Death God Mingwang chuckled coldly. "Are you trying to impress me with your words so that I will let you off the hook? This won''t work on me because I''ve no martial honor. Killing you is a necessity not because of who you are but because of the spirit entity that is within you."

    Ji Yuan coughed out weakly. "You mean Xiang Li who is my spirit entity?"

    The Death God Mingwang slowly nodded as he said coldly. "Indeed! You''re such an insignificant ant but she is different¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had broken through the barrage of sword energies as he charged forward like a beam of light as his profound animus formed itself into the shape of coiling dragon.

    The Death God Mingwang was startled. "This¡­"

    There was a brilliant sh of light as the Death God Mingwang stumbled backward as Ji Yuan delivered a sh of light onto his body¡­

    The sh of light had suddenly exploded thunderously as the Death God Mingwang was sent flying and crashing onto the cliff behind. Such was the impact that the entire vicinity was violently shaking for a while.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as the sword energies in the vicinity had suddenly died down. "The Death God Mingwang isn''t that so tough after all¡­"

    All of a sudden the Death God Mingwang broke free from the cliff and was staring coldly at Ji Yuan. "You! How did you manage to break free of my sword arrays! You shouldn''t have the strength to make a move. I have youpletely under my profound strength!"

    Ji Yuan could not resist a weak smile. "That is because of your nod."

    "My nod?" The Death God Mingwang was startled.

    All of a sudden he wasughing coldly in sudden realization. "I see now."

    Ji Yuan had made use of his momentum change in minute movement tounch a counter-attack. When he had nodded, there was a subtle shift in his control of his sword energies and there was a gap.

    Because of this tiny small gap, Ji Yuan had found a breathing space and he had counter-attacked.

    But there was another question. How did Ji Yuan manage to survive the onughter of his sword energies? When he had made his offensive move, all his profound defenses would also be forego and he would be at his most vulnerable state¡­

    All of a sudden he saw that Ji Yuan''s forearm had a brilliant sword spirit.

    Ji Yuan had used his sword spirit to augment himself and hence he had be one with his coiling dragon sword technique; he had merely sliced and neutralized all the surrounding sword energies because he was one with his sword art and his profound power was greater than the profound energies of the sword energies that were attacking him.

    The Death God Mingwang inhaled softly. "It seems that I''ve greatly underestimated you and it is time for me to be a little serious."

 Chapter 262 The Death God Mingwang (2)

    "It seems that I''ve greatly underestimated you and it is time for me to be a little serious." The Death God Mingwang scorned as he raised his ck sword.

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he readied a sword stance, "You mean that you''re not serious earlier?"

    All of a sudden the ck sword of the Death God Mingwang had a brilliant halo and in the next instant a long ck scythe was reformed in his hand and the profound power that Ji Yuan could sense was suddenly doubled to the ninth cultivation realm power!

    Ji Yuan was startled; divine harmony and did his opponent just disy a sanctorum power of his divine sword?

    "While my cultivation profound strength may be limited here but the profound might of my divine sword is unrestricted here. So do you think that you are able to seriously stand a chance against me?" The Death God Mingwang coldly said.

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "You are right. Against your profound might, I am definitely not your match."

    The Death God Mingwangughed coldly. "You''re wise. If you do not resist me while I reach into your inner cultivation core to destroy your spirit entity, I can consider sparing you and even extend the option for you to join us¡­."

    "Who says that I''m surrendering without a fight?" Ji Yuan interrupted with mocking coldness as he disyed the double divine harmony of his sword which caused his saintly divine sword to shine with a white re.

    "It is all just empty talk despite your best attempt to arouse your battle spirit. Under the overwhelming might of my profound might, spirit talk is just for the weaklings to convince themselves that they will be able to stand a chance. But the truth is, it is just a futile struggle and a mean to convince yourself." The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan hummed before he said coolly, "But I really think that you are just hot air and this is only your bluff."

    "Why do you say that? Is this another one of your reluctant excuses to admit defeat?" The Death God Mingwangughed.

    "No." Ji Yuan said solemnly. "If you are really as strong as you''ve imed, surely you don''t have to lure me to this ce and to ambush me with these hidden sword energies, am I right? If you''re really as strong as you''ve imed to be, surely you cane out with a more direct approach to get rid of me¡­"

    "There is only one exnation for this. You''re not really here in this ce. Somehow you have the ability to sense me and after I havee to this level, a sword array is triggered by my presence. If I''m not wrong about this then you''re just as astral projection. This is because¡­"

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before he said coldly. "This is because you have no shadow. And because you''ve no shadow, I know that you are not here. My master had once told me that he had encountered someone with the Mystic Shadow Profound Art and he had once crossed sword with one before. I presume that is you?"

    The Death God Mingwang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued. "My master had also told me that even though that cultivator is formidable but he is not really there and is only capable of performing short bursts of profound power. Therefore he can only have just a few opportunities to kill his opponent."

    The Death God Mingwang: ¡­

    "Now this makes sense. So you have left behind a sword formation in each of the level so that you can have a chance to ambush me? It is because you didn''t know where I am¡­" Ji Yuan began to rub his chin before he continued. "No, somehow you do know if I''m near and that is why this sword array is triggered and the reason is¡­"

    "You talk too much." The Death God Mingwang had suddenly raised his dark scythe and a burst of profound energy in the shape of gigantic de had materialized and was flying toward Ji Yuan!

    "Even if you do know my secret but our disparity is still too wide!"

    Ji Yuan was actually preparing his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and he had swung his sword forward¡­

    There was a thunderous sh of energies as Ji Yuan was suddenly sent flying back.

    "Too puny and you don''t think that you really stand a chance against me. Even if you know that this is my astral projection but you can''t kill me¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan flipped in mid-air and his forearm was glowing with his sword spirit. "Oh yea? Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    The ground around Ji Yuan had suddenly erupted into two splits as a beam of sword energies light in the form of a white flying dragon was suddenly seen and had overwhelmed the gigantic de that was chasing Ji Yuan.

    This gigantic de was dematerialized and the white light had charged past it to hit the Death God Mingwang with such a thunderous impact that he waspletely obliterated in a thunderous impact.

    "This¡­how can your reaction be so quick¡­how can you still have so much profound strength¡­" These were the Death God Mingwang''sst words.

    Ji Yuan was panting breathlessly. "Thanks Xiang Li¡­"

    "Not at all, Big Brother!" Xiang Li grinned but she was scratching her head.

    Ji Yuan had thought that it was Xiang Li who was enhancing his sword spirit to enable him to use the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon but actually Xiang Li was only watching the battle.

    Xiang Li did not have to enhance Ji Yuan''s sword spirit because ever since Ji Yuan had absorbed a second sword spirit, his original sword spirit was already maxed out.

    Ji Yuan had purposely used his weaker profound technique first because the super version required three blinks of a blink to charge and he did not want to make it too obvious for his opponent to evade his most powerful sword art.

    He continued to mutter breathlessly. "We shall meet again soon and I hope to meet your true self soon. When that happens, I hope to kill you for real. I actually did not want to reveal this trump card of mine but you''re too strong for me to handle¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was interrupted by a startling movement above him as he saw a speeding light that had suddenly shed from the top.<sub> </sub>

    He was greatly startled because he did not think that there was yet another hidden opponent in the vicinity.

    But he did not hesitate at all as he mustered his remaining profound strength to defend against the sudden profound attack while cursing. "This is¡­really bad timing¡­"

    He was caught at his most vulnerable position and had expended almost all his profound strength. The profound strength that he had lost was actually temporary and he could cultivate it back after a short rest but at this time, he had expended most of his vital energies in his soul sea to execute two powerful techniques.

    He shouted aloud as he unleashed a wave of sword energy upward; this was his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as he merged his sword spirit with the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to form it, "You have underestimated me. At this distance, I am able to muster my trump card and obliterate you even if you''re a great saint¡­"

    That was the truth unless his opponent was a cultivator that was beyond the seventh realm. Moreover his opponent had given him sufficient time to muster his strongest technique; three blinks of an eye were enough for him to execute his strongest profound technique.

    Ji Yuan could not see his opponent clearly because his opponent was the fastest opponent that he had ever seen and he could see a profound power that was beyond the seventh realm that was like a suffocating reservoir that had suddenly appeared above him.

    All of a sudden there was a brilliant light and a streak of seven ster lights had dismembered his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon from above.

    This shocked Ji Yuan as the ground around him was suddenly sunk in by several inches deep and was exploding furiously.

    He really got a shock because all of a sudden he could sense the divine power of an immortal sword that was shing above him.

    Another cultivator with an immortal sword?!

    Ji Yuan was staring in disbelief.

    This time he had really used up all his profound strength. It was because his opponent had not only destroyed his most formidable profound technique but had also sapped all his profound strength at the same time.

    He really could notprehend such a move and he could not understand why all his profound strength could suddenly leave him all of a sudden¡­

    "Xiang Li, I''m sorry¡­I am still too weak¡­I can''t protect you¡­"

    Xiang Li gasped softly. "Big Brother, I''m sorry¡­I am the one that has weakened your profound power¡­"

    "You did what, Xiang Li?!" Ji Yuan was stunned.

    All of a sudden the descending sword had suddenly slowed down to a crawl and an angelic face had suddenly popped out in the fluttering dusts; it was Shui Xisi.

    Her divine sword was razor sharp and almost at Ji Yuan''s throat.

    "Sisi? What are you doing here?" Ji Yuan was stunned that it was Shui Xisi and he did not know that she was actually such a formidable fighter.

    Shui Xisi was equally startled as well. "Ji Yuan, it is you? Why did you attack me for?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "It is you that is attacking me. You didn''t recognize my technique?"

    Shui Xisiughed jovially. "Everything looks the same from below."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Wait a minute. Why are you here and erm¡­what is that move that you''re using earlier?" Ji Yuan had a perplexed look on his countenance.

    Shui Xisi winked her eyes. "Why shouldn''t I be here? I was trying so hard to follow you. Now will you please give me an exnation why did you try to shake me off for? Do you know that I was so anxious for you, hmph! I thought that you''re under attack and you are actually attacking me!"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Oh well¡­I was fighting someone here¡­"

    "Ouch!!!" All of a sudden Ji Yuan gave a loud yell when Shui Xisi had suddenly pinched his face hard.

    "Whaaa. It sounds real." Shui Xisi was giggling. "You can''t even evade my puny attack at all."

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently. "I''ve just survived a treacherous fight, only to almost die in the hands of my future consort¡­"

    "What did you just say?" Shui Xisi chuckled.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Nothing. I am just saying that I''ve just remembered that you have a Divine Exaltation Miracle Art that can suddenly void out profound energies. This profound art of yours is too much of a cheat, am I right?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she stroked Ji Yuan''s cheek lightly. "That is why it is a miracle art, am I right? It is most useful if you suddenly try to be funny with me and I can assist you by cutting your little precious."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 263 The Secret Scouting Affair (1)

    Ji Yuan was rolling his eyes and looking at Shui Xisi''s butt as he said to her teasingly, "Do you know that you''ve almost lost your future lord today."

    "Hmph!" Shui Xisi chuckled jovially as she held onto her belly as she swayed to and fro. "Who says that I''m going to be your future consort and who says that you''re going to be my future lord? Why are you being so thick skin?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he leaned to her. "I''m afraid that with your fierce personality, no one is gonna to marry you¡­ouch!!!"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly pulled his ear as he leaned forward. "Listen! I''m only fierce to you but I''m a angel to all the others."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "I don''t think so¡­"

    "And what are your eyes looking at?" Shui Xisi pretended to give him an annoyed look.

    "What else¡­your butt¡­" Ji Yuanughed before he yelled aloud in pain again as his ear got twisted by Shui Xisi.

    "Sisi¡­" All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned solemn. "Minus the fact that Xiang Li had sabotaged me earlier by choking my inner cultivation sea, what is that profound technique that you''ve just used? The one before your Divine Exaltation. The one with the seven splitting lights. Earlier I can sense a powerful profound power that is beyond the seventh realm level gathering above me. I''ve never seen you using it before. Not even when we''re fighting against Yin Wei and Yin Xiong."

    Xiang Li was protesting quietly. "I didn''t sabotage you! I know that it is Big Sister Sisi! I am saving you from a stupid mistake¡­"

    But her quiet protest was ignored by Ji Yuan as he looked at the flustered Sisi who was leaning near him.

    "Is that important?" Shui Xisi averted her eyes as she inhaled softly.

    "Is this your true profound strength?" Ji Yuan quietly asked.

    Shui Xisi quietly nodded before she said with a fluster look that caused Ji Yuan''s heart to pound heavily. "This is my secret profound art. I didn''t want to use it. But earlier, I was so upset and so¡­"

    She did not continue but left it lingering.

    "You''re anxious for me?" Ji Yuan asked shamelessly.

    Shui Xisi lifted her beautiful golden eyes to look intently at him. "Please don''t tell anyone about it because¡­"

    "Because it is an immortal profound art, am I right?" Ji Yuan slowly said.

    Shui Xisi looked away before she nodded lightly.

    "How did you know an immortal profound art?" Ji Yuan asked curiously. "You''re stronger than Jiajia then?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she shook her head gently, "My Sister Jiajia is a lot stronger than me even though we are at the same cultivation level. In this lifetime, there is no way that I can exceed her."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "As long as you work hard on your cultivation practice, you can. Moreover, Jiajia is always so busy. She looks like a cker to me."

    When he had thought of Jiajia, he was already drooling when he recalled her naked figure and he was thinking; why didn''t I bang her when she was at the Emperor Hall Sect¡­

    Shui Xisi muttered. "Hertent potential is stronger than me. She doesn''t need to cultivate at all because she is the firstborn¡­"

    She quickly averted her eyes before she continued. "Anyway, this isn''t important."

    "Firstborn what?" Ji Yuan curiously asked.

    "Nothing." Shui Xisi said as she walked away.

    "Nothing?" Ji Yuan grabbed her hand as heughed. "Come on, tell me."

    Shui Xisi turned to look at him intently. "Do you know our background?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Of course I know. You''re Jiajia''s sister and you''re the matriarch of the Water Melody Pce. Jiajia is the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Pce as well as the sect leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. Both of you are going to be my future consorts too. Haha."<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi pushed Ji Yuan away. "You don''t know who I am¡­"

    I am the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. So is Jiajia and she is her firstborn and she has inherited our mother''s profound strength¡­

    Ji Yuan: ???

    All of a sudden he had grabbed Shui Xisi by her waist as he said gently to her. "Sisi, I don''t care what is your background. I may not know your background but surely you know my background, am I right? Isn''t that enough?"

    Shui Xisi gasped softly as Ji Yuan took the liberty to rub against her butt and his fingers were randomly crawling on her back as well but she was curious enough to ask. "Actually what is your background? Do you even have a background?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "My background will surely not be a surprise to you. I am actually as poor as a beggar."

    Shui Xisi chuckled as she tried to push Ji Yuan away. "You!"

    She could not resist bursting out in softughter and her eyes were brimming with tears. "Why are you so funny. Yes, indeed you''re like a beggar¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping softly when Ji Yuan had suddenly held her to him and was kissing her passionately.

    He was pressing onto her soft bosoms and he was lifting up her skirt¡­

    Shui Xisi was flushing and was protesting softly. "How dare you take liberties at me¡­"

    Ji Yuan gently whispered in her ears. "This is not our first time. Since day one, you know that I am not a gentleman."

    "Yes, you''re not a gentleman. You''re just a badass rascal¡­" Shui Xisi muttered softly as she began to inhale heavily.

    Ji Yuan was already in the heat and he was looking at Shui Xisi, hoping to get her approval.

    He smiled. "We have so many missed chances together and there are no others in this ce¡­"

    Shui Xisi interjected cheekily. "Who says that there is no one around? There is the heaven and the earth that can see your dirty deeds¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he lifted her to his broad arms. "Who cares about the heaven and the earth? Or anyone else for that matter. It is our personal matter."

    Shui Xisi slowly nodded. "Please be gentle with me then."

    Ji Yuan gently nodded. "I will."

    Shui Xisi could not resist a chuckle. "Or else don''t me me for cutting off your little precious."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was dancing wildly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she covered her flushed face. "Just don''t talk anymore and be done with the deed. Hurry, hurry!"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned. "Xiang Li, you really know nuts about being a romantic cultivator."

    Xiang Li giggled. "I''m not a romantic cultivator. You''re. Moreover I''m only a maiden and I only want to know the banging."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are too crude. Let''s sit down and have a little chat first about your manners¡­after I''ve done with my business of course."

 Chapter 264 The Secret Scouting Affair (2)

    Xiang Li was muttering almost incoherently in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "It is over so soon¡­"

    Shui Xisi was breathing heavily and her naked body was perspiring as she copsed weakly onto Ji Yuan; Ji Yuan was actually not gentle at all and their lovemaking hadsted several hours as they rolled passionately in a secluded grass patch hidden in the towering cliffs that overlooked the desert.

    The two of them were no strangers to passionate kisses and they had been secretly flirting with each other for many months. They were now merely putting their flirtations into stone now and affirming their rtionship officially.

    "Ji Yuan¡­should I call you my lord now?" Shui Xisi muttered.

    "Naturally you are my dear consort and I am your lord." Ji Yuan nodded gently before he grinned lecherous at her upper body before rolling his eyes between her legs.

    All of a sudden he had slide down his fingers from her firm butt to her moist valley between her legs and was fingering her. "You will always be my consort and the most precious maiden in my heart."

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly. "You''re such a liar. You have so many precious maidens in your heart and I''m merely one of them."

    "Erm, you''re all very precious in my heart. Trust me." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Then prove it. I want you to make love to me every day." Shui Xisi hummed softly.

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "That is going to be a little hard."

    Shui Xisi cuddled into Ji Yuan''s embrace before she muttered almost incoherently with a deep flush. "Ji Yuan, you''re too badass. You''re not afraid that I will cut off your little precious?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Now that my little precious has conquered you, go ahead and cut it. I don''t mind but I''m afraid that you will mind¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned ashen as Shui Xisi had flickered her fingers to hit his little precious hard.

    Shui Xisiughed jovially. "Hehehe. Here you go¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had flipped her and pushed her down as heughed. "It is not hard enough for me to feel pain but it is still hard enough for us to continue.

    Without waiting for Shui Xisi to protest further, Ji Yuan had spread her legs around his waist as he started to bang her furiously.

    Xiang Li was giggling in secret and her eyes were beaming with joy. "I know that Big Brother won''t disappoint me¡­"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly pushed Ji Yuan away with an impish chuckle. "Ji Yuan, why don''t we y a little game?"

    "A game?" Ji Yuan growled, displeased that he was being pushed away when he was still high.

    Shui Xisi nodded shyly. "That''s right. A game."

    "What game?" He asked with an increasing louder growl.

    Shui Xisi giggled. "I will pretend to be a weak and vulnerable maiden while you pretended to be a badass cultivator. How about it?"

    Then she added with a soft chuckle. "And you can do whatever you want with me and I won''t resist."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and he was suddenly grinning. "Serious? I can do whatever I want with you and you won''t resist? Anything I want?"

    "Anything you want." She winked back with a flush look.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly aroused and excited as heughed aloud. "This is the type of game that I happen to like. Haha. I love being a badass cultivator. Sisi, pass me your whip. Haha..."

    He was suddenly shouting with great enthusiasm as he received the whip from Shui Xisi. "Sisi, do you know that I''ve admired you for a long time and today, you have finally fallen into my hands!"

    Shui Xisi pretended to stammer with fear. "Ji¡­Yuan¡­you are such a lecherous cultivator. I am so wrong about you¡­I''ve thought that you are a righteous orthodox cultivator...yet you''re nothing but an evil heretic cultivator!"

    Ji Yuan roared with pretended evilughter. "This is actually my true fa?ade. Now that you know my true face, it is already toote for regrets. Because today, you will bepletely mine!"

    "I will rather die than be subjected to your humiliations!" Shui Xisi whined with fright.

    "There is fate that is worse than death itself. Even if you are dead, I won''t spare your corpse." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li was blinking her eyes innocently. "Big Brother, why are you suddenly bing such an evil person?"<sub> </sub>

    "Erm, Xiang Li¡­step aside. We''re ying a game. You are too little to understand." Ji Yuan quickly replied to her. "Just stay one corner and keep quiet. No matter how loud Sisi calls for helpter, you mustn''t respond or appear, got it?"

    Xiang Li muttered with aplex look. "A game? I mustn''t help Big Sister Sisi?"

    She had heard a game that was being mentioned but she was too dazed after admiring Ji Yuan''s body that she was not paying any attention to their conversations. So when their tones had suddenly changed, Xiang Li was left confused by the sudden harsh tones.

    Ji Yuan forced Shui Xisi to kneel in front of him as he stood mightily with all his manly pride. "After you have tasted the pleasures, you will forever be my ve."

    Shui Xisi shook her head panicky before she screamed aloud. "I don''t want. Someone please help me¡­"

    "We''re in the wilderness where there is no one for hundreds of miles." Ji Yuanughed wickedly. "Therefore even if you have shouted until your throat bes hoarse, no one will be able to hear you."

    While Ji Yuan was mocking her, Shui Xisi was frantically screaming aloud¡­

    He began to pull her long silky hair to force her face toward his little precious. "If you can pleasure me well, I will promise to pleasure you equally well or else don''t me me for being such a badass¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?!" A chorus of shouts was suddenly heard above them.

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had suddenly turned ashen because a group of maidens had suddenly appeared above them and were staring at them with great shock; they were Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er.

    Ling Feiyue covered her mouth with great shock. "Ji Yuan, how can you do such a thing¡­"

    Little Princess was stammering with shock. "You are forcing yourself on the Matriarch Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you¡­" Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng could not believe what they were seeing when they saw Ji Yuan had forced Shui Xisi into such apromising act and he was in the middle of such a lewd act.

    Ji Yuan panicky snatched his robe to cover himself and moving his body to cover Shui Xisi as well before he stammered panicky. "No wait please! Listen to me! This is a major misunderstanding. I repeat. This is a major misunderstanding. What you are seeing is all not real!!!"

    Feng Minyue hummed coldly. "You call this not real? We have heard Sisi''s screams for miles away and have rushed here. And to think that you are showing your true colors here¡­"

    Little Princess nodded, "We have all heard of your true confessions earlier. You are nothing but a wolf in sheep clothing!"

    "Wait, wait!" Ji Yuan panicky said as he looked at Shui Xisi as he threw away the whip that was in his hand. "Sisi, please say something. Tell them that this is only a game!"

    Shui Xisi was caught in a most awkward dilemma and she did not know how to exin herself as well. Therefore she could only burst out in tears. "Ji Yuan, he¡­is a beast of a man¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Therefore he could only say weakly. "Why are you all here? Aren''t you supposed to be miles away¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him. "If we are not here then we won''t know your true colors and your evil deed, am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng folded her arms as she said coolly. "We have found the fourth trial that is on this level and that is why we are on the move to find you. But never have we expected to make such a big finding here.

    Ling Feiyue turned to stare in the direction of Shui Xisi as she said. "Don''t worry Sister Sisi, we will hold Ji Yuan''s responsible for his act."

    Shui Xisi wailed even louder. "How? My honor is forever tainted."

    "We can cut his little precious for you and I can ensure it will be permanent." Ling Feiyue casually said.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She returned a weak look at Ji Yuan as she thought; did we overy this¡­

    Ji Yuan had broken into cold sweat. This time he was screwed. He had just used his remaining profound strength into his lovemaking session and there was no way he could stop these maidens from cutting off his little precious¡­

 Chapter 265 Ji Yuan, You Donâ€™t Have To Explain Anything!

    Ji Yuan had a most sheepish look as he walked with the party to the location where the trial entrance of the fourth level could be found.

    He was not the only one.

    Shui Xisi was also looking sheepish at the same time.

    It was because they had been teased nonstop by the party as they traveled together.

    Obviously all the maidens know that Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were only yacting with each other.

    They had to admit that they were indeed shocked when they had suddenly heard Shui Xisi screaming for help and had rushed in a hurry to locate them.

    But when they saw that her assant was Ji Yuan, they began to curse silently and knew that they were only yacting; it was because they had always known that Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan were secretly having an affair.

    It was not a secret to Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng who had caught them in the act even before they had entered the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    Ling Feiyue was quick to put on an act too by pretending to be upset and she was quickly followed by the other maidens.

    As much as Shui Xisi tried to point her fingers against Ji Yuan as she felt too ashamed to admit that they were ying a rough game together, the other maidens were only ying along tofort her.

    Even Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er knew what their ''scouting'' was all about, having been informed by Ling Feiyue who had casually said to them before the encounter. "I won''t be surprised to find them disheveled together. We are just giving a chance for Sisi to be with Ji Yuan to keep her quiet. After all, we may need her help in the future."

    But when they had found Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan together, all the maidens were quite shocked by the outrageous game that they were ying.

    By now, both Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were aware that everyone seemed to know what was going on. It was because Ji Yuan''s little precious was still intact and he was not punished in anyway.

    The two of them wished that they could dig a hole into the ground to hide their shame¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered secretly to Xiang Li, "Why didn''t you warn me that they areing¡­"

    "I didn''t see theming¡­" Xiang Li replied with a flustered countenance as she recalled the delicious scene earlier. "Moreover you told me not to make any sound and to hide in a corner."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Actually everyone¡­" Ji Yuan suddenly had an inspiration of an excuse. "I was in a battle with the Death God Mingwang. He is a formidable immortal cultivator. When Sisi and the rest of you had found me earlier, I was being controlled by the will of the Death God Mingwang¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed. "My lord. No one can control the will of the others. Moreover both your soul and spirit level are at a level that even subtle subversion of your mind is impossible."

    Little Princess smiled coldly. "So says the expert. So can''t you pleasee out with a better story than this?" She had restrained from saying aloud that Bai Qianfeng was an immortal cultivator but Ji Yuan perfectly understood what she meant.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    And so Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly. "But my battle with the Death God Mingwang is real. I am betting all my fortune that he must be somewhat rted to the Evil Cultivation Pce and he may be the mastermind behind all these. Finally we have a clue on who our real enemy really is¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him. "Hmph! If he is an immortal cultivator then you won''t be around anymore."

    "Yes and why are you still around?" Little Princess asked.

    "Because that is only his astral projection and he isn''t really there. All I need to do is to exhaust his profound strength and I can easily defeat him." Ji Yuan chuckled. "And that is why. Also, I am a genius¡­"

    "Liar!" Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng said at the same time.

    Ling Feiyue could not resist a soft chuckle. "Actually I was almost ready to believe you until he adds the genius word."

    "Me too!" Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng giggled at the same time.

    Bai Qianfeng giggled as she covered her mouth. "A genius liar, I''m sure that was what he was trying to say."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to smile at Feng Minyue, Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er. "You do believe me, am I right?"

    But Feng Minyue, Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er pretended to look the other way.

    Chen Hanhan muttered softly. "You''ve me fooled and that is why I''m now in your hands."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I didn''t ask you to follow me¡­

    Ji Yuan turned to smile at Shui Xisi. "Sisi, we''re on the same side. Tell them that it is the truth."

    Shui Xisi smiled awkwardly. "I didn''t exactly see it."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan returned an awkward smile to her as he cursed softly; surely you can tell them any story. Why are you so honest at this point¡­

    "Xiang Li is my witness. I can ask her to verify my ounts¡­"

    Ling Feiyue hummed softly. "Don''t bother. We all know that Xiang Li has to obey yourmands."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "You know, spirit entities don''t lie¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng interrupted him. "Like real."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he smiled weakly; somehow no one believes that he had just been through a life and death battle with a most formidable opponent.

    "You know that I''ve expended most of my profound strength. You can examine my pulse¡­"

    "Right. In your lovemaking session." Little Princess stomped her feet.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes to look at a flustered Shui Xisi.

    "Haha¡­"

    All his arguments were soundly defeated and were nuked into nothingness.

    He was suddenly saved from further embarrassment when Ling Feiyue pointed to the cliff above them. "We are here. Above this cliff is a tform and that is where the next trial entrance is."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Haha. So this is where the trial is? I love trials. Let''s hurry our pace."

    Ling Feiyue cursed softly. "Lame."

    But Ji Yuan pretended not to hear as he sped ahead of the rest.

    "Wait for me!" Shui Xisi shouted after him before she chuckled softly to the rest. "Someone has to keep an eye over him."

    She did not want to be left behind because she was now sharing the same awkwardness as Ji Yuan. For now she had lost her pride as a lofty great saintess and the matriarch of the Water Melody Pce; in her mind, she was just a maiden that had fallen madly in love with Ji Yuan.

    As the two of them sped off hurriedly, Ling Feiyue sighed softly to the rest. "Look at the two of them. Just a while ago, one was pretending to be the victim and one was pretending to be a badass. Now they are moving on their business as though nothing had happened earlier."

    Little Princess nodded with a wry smile. "Let''s follow them quickly. They can''t find a hole in the ground to hide now and who knows if they may just decide to enter the trial on their own to hide from us."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she danced in front of them as she began to follow closely behind Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi.

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly. "So it seems that our Sister Qianfeng here is more eager to follow Ji Yuan¡­"

    But Bai Qianfeng did not reply to her and instead she called out to Ji Yuan, "My lord, wait for your Qianfeng¡­"

    Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan were all panicky following as well. "Wait for us¡­"

    Little Princess shrugged her shoulders as she looked at Ling Feiyue with a soft sigh, "These maidens have no spines. They are all his fan girls. We''ve better catch up with them too¡­"

    As the rest of the maidens began to follow rapidly after Ji Yuan, Feng Minyue was still flushing behind her veil.

    It was because Ji Yuan had exposed himself to her when she had identally seen him in the middle of his outrageous act.

    When she had thought of this, she could not resist continuing her flushes as she thought; he may have a most beautiful look but why is that he has to be such a pervert¡­

    She was soon moaning as she tried to shake the thought of his little precious off her mind as she muttered silently; he has corrupted my pure cultivation mind with his unsightly ugly rod¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan got on the tform with Shui Xisi, he saw the trial entrance which was a shimmering blue portal which was situated at the back.

    There was a ck stele next to the blue portal which would describe the trial details to the cultivators.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was frowning; it was because his sharp eyes had spotted a name that was on top of the cliff and that was the Death God.

    Other than the Death God, there were no other names and there were no other cultivators presented at the tform as well.

    The first thought that hade to his mind was, "The Death God Mingwang was here and he had alreadypleted the trial?"

 Chapter 266 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (1)

    Ji Yuan grinned as he pointed at the top of the cliff that pronounced ''Death God'' before saying proudly. "Look! This is the Death God Mingwang! See, I didn''t lie at all. I''ve told you that I am betting my entire fortune that this Death God Mingwang is rted to the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "It''s only a coincidence. Death God isn''t equal to Death God Mingwang¡­"

    "It is only a lucky guess from Ji Yuan¡­"

    "His entire fortune? He is as poor as a beggar¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is so thick skin as usual and he doesn''t own up to his deeds¡­"

    "His soul was extremely impure in the past...now I know why¡­"

    "How can he be so shameless as to bondage Sisi¡­"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "He had even dared to peep at Xue Qianxue when she was bathing¡­he''spletely shameless¡­"

    "What?! He peeped at the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue?!"

    "That isn''t the worst thing that he did¡­"

    "He ispletely shameless while inside the Dream Trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck?! They even bring up my past?! They have nothing better to do than gossiping about me?!

    Shui Xisi gave Ji Yuan an apologetic look as she said silently; Ji Yuan, I''m so sorry. I didn''t know that I can get you into such a fine fix¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he hummed loudly. "Ahem!!! We''re supposed to be taking our trial and not erm¡­gossiping about me¡­"

    "We''re not gossiping about you¡­" There was a chorus of protests immediately.

    Ling Feiyue smiled. "How can it be gossiping about you when we are talking about you in front of you and not behind your back?"

    "That''s right. We are talking straight in your face!" Little Princess winked at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he rolled his eyes awkwardly. "Make sense but can all of you focus on the trial instead of me?"

    With a weak protest he had walked to the ck stele before saying solemnly, "Unlike all of you who aren''t interested in the trials, I''ve a more lofty aspiration than any of you to reach to the very top. I''ve the weight of Jiajia and Qianxue on my shoulders and I mustn''t fail them."

    But secretly he was grinning; Haha. I hope that I can make all of you ashamed of yourself! I''ve the moral high ground now¡­

    "Ji Yuan is trying to talk his way through now." Ling Feiyue chuckled to the other maidens who were all giggling softly.

    Even Feng Minyue could not resist a smile.

    "Indeed, indeed!" Little Princess nodded too with a mesmerizing wink. "Therefore we mustn''t believe in anything he is saying now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was frowning now; they are just filtering all his words to whatever suits their convenient...

    But at least he still has Sisi to be support since they are in the same boat¡­

    So he turned to say to her to say, "Sisi, let''s ignore them. If they are not serious in their trials then it is up to us to show them our gritty determination¡­"

    Shui Xisi quickly danced to Ling Feiyue side as she chuckled softly. "I am sorry to say that they may be right."

    She looked awkwardly at Ji Yuan as she sighed silently; Ji Yuan, I''m sorry! If we want to be together then I may need your consorts'' approval first. Earlier, they''re already quite lenient toward me by not poking fun at me. I have to be on their side or else I really need to find a hole to dig!

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes: ¡­

    There goes his one and only ally¡­

    He muttered almost incoherently, "Just because I''m the only man in the party, all of you have to gang up against me. I don''t mind if all of you gang up against me by dancing naked in front of me¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, what did you just say?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously. "We can''t hear you."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Nothing."<sub> </sub>

    Just wishing that you would be dancing naked in front of me, haha. He added with a thought.

    To have the fluttering great beauty Ling Feiyue danced in front of him would be such a good idea and is a new inspiration for his new poem¡­

    Ji Yuan was grinning with the though as he touched the ck stele but all of a sudden he had turned ashen as he turned to everyone to say. "This trial is extremely difficult. We mustn''t take this trial. Let''s go!"

    Ling Feiyueughed softly as she touched the ck stele, followed by the other maidens.

    "I''ve thought that someone here just say that he is here for the trials and now he is backing off."

    Bai Qianfeng had deciphered the ck stele faster than any of the other maidens. "Mmm¡­the Trial of the Sacred Sword?"

    Shui Xisi said. "This sounds a little familiar."

    "What is it?" Little Princess asked curiously.

    Feng Minyue muttered. "This is a most dangerous trial."

    Ji Yuan nodded solemnly. "This is the trial that all sword saints have to take. It is a hidden life and death trial. Not everyone can be a sword saint. That is why there is only one cultivator that has ovee the trial. If you fail this trial then you will die. It is as simple as that."

    Shui Xisiughed softly. "We have so many great saints here. Surely this trial will be a piece of cake?"

    Ji Yuan turned to her to say gravely. "Have you ever heard that the sword saint trial is a group trial and can be assisted? Therefore only I can ovee this trial."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    "What is so difficult about a sword saint trial?" Ling Feiyue hummed. "I too, have a sword spirit. Maybe I can even be a sword saintess too."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Not all sword saints have a sword spirit and not all cultivators that have a sword spirit will be able to pass the Sword Saint Trial."

    He solemnly added. "I can''t risk any of you here. Therefore we have to abandon this trial."

    "What is the Sword Saint Trial all about?" Little Princess asked. "No sword saints have ever shared their experiences."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "Facing death. You will stand between the fine thread of life and death. Only when you can ovee death then can you be a sword saint."

    Everyone: ¡­

    "You need a most resolute will to face it. But that is not enough¡­" Ji Yuan said as he looked at his fingers. "You have to react very fast and I mean very fast if not you will be killed in the very next instant."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan can be a sword saint because he has a strong fortitude in winning his battles and his agile mentality is equally as quick as his reactions.

    As for Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, she had ovee the Sword Saint Trial simply because she did not care for her life anymore after she was forced to be separated from Ji Yuan and her will to live was enforced by her newborn child.

    Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden. "You didn''t read to thest line? Even though this may be the Sword Saint Trial but an existing sword saint will be able to bring a group inside. However, that Sword Saint must be able to shoulder the burden of his group. There will be no group risk as everything will fall into the shoulder of the Sword Saint undertaking the trial."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly. "In that case, let''s go and find another trial. We can''t risk Ji Yuan¡­"

    Little Princess agreed with a quick nod. "Even if Ji Yuan is willing, we''re not willing. Let''s go¡­"

    "This level is big enough for plenty of other trials. It isn''t a cowardice way to drop this trial for another trial." Feng Minyue suggested.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately; I am no coward, especially not in front of Maiden Feng. What would she think of me in the future?

    So heughed aloud. "Since we are here already, let''s go into this trial as a group. You have Sword Saint Ji Yuan to lead all of you to victory. Haha."

    Shui Xisi was gasping. "Ji Yuan, what are you saying? This is madness¡­"

    Having been aroused by his undying fighting spirit, especially in front of a peerless maiden like Feng Minyue, Ji Yuan found himself saying with a hearty pat on his chest. "Count on me!"

    For a second, his manly pride increased ten folds.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue muttered almost incoherently. "This must be the curse of his undying fighting spirit that he had picked up during our trial together¡­"

    After Ji Yuan had proimed loudly his intentions, he was cursing silently and was regretting; what am I saying? Ji Yuan, are you nuts? You have lost your rational coolness in front of Maiden Feng. One of these days, you will be killed by your pride¡­

    Mu Wan''Er said quietly. "Lord Ji Yuan, it is alright. Let''s look for another trial instead. We cannot depend on you alone. This is most unfair to you¡­"

    Ji Yuan found himself interrupting with an extreme manly pride when even Wan''Er was doubting his ability. "We are all going into this trial. Wan''Er, you can count on me with closed eyes. Haha."

    What am I saying??

 Chapter 267 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (2)

    Ji Yuan actually did not enter the trial immediately.

    Instead, he waited for three more days.

    It was because he had expended all his profound strength and there was no way that he was in the right condition to enter the trial.

    Therefore he had to regain his profound strength first by resting and consuming profound pills for the next three days.

    The profound strength that he had lost was temporary and not the same as a cultivation realm breakthrough when the cultivator''s inner cultivation sea would be consumed. This consumes the vital energies that were provided by the inner cultivation sea instead. With some profound pills and rest, the vital energies would be quickly regained.

    The strength of the cultivator''s inner cultivation sea would determine the rate of recovery in the vital energies.

    Profound arts are naturally powered by a cultivator''s vital energies and the strength of the profound art would be determined by the cultivator''s profound strength. When it means that a cultivator had exhausted his profound strength in battle, it actually means that he had exhausted his vital energies that provide the endurance to disy his cultivation arts.

    Ji Yuan with his high level spiritual and soul force naturally had a formidable vast reserve of inner cultivation sea inside his inner soul now.

    On the other hand, replenishing the inner cultivation sea once it was lost, was often an extremely tedious that would require months or years, requiring high grade spirit stones and expensive profound pills.

    Even the cultivator''s profound strength would be limited because the inner cultivation sea would only produce a limited flow of vital profound energies to power their cultivation arts.

    Therefore after a major realm breakthrough, most cultivators would spend time for quiet meditation to regain as much of their spiritual sea as possible.

    Some may even take as long as ten years and hundreds of years, especially if they are poor or have been cultivating in the mountains where the spiritual force is weak.

    It may seem a long time to the mortals and the lowly cultivators but to a high level cultivator, it was only a blink of an eye.

    High level cultivators would often enter seclusion for hundreds of years to delve into the mysteries of the cultivation.

    Ji Yuan was quite a genius to have achieved his seventh realm breakthrough in just a hundred years. But of course the divine sword that Jiajia had given him yed a major part too. It was because during a major breakthrough, having a divine sword would mean a matter of life and death. Without a divine sword, the chances of oveing the life and death tribtion would lower considerably.

    Ji Yuan only required three days to regain most of his profound strength and he was almost ready to enter the trial.

    He was sighing. "s, the spiritual force on the fourth level is so much stronger than the lower levels."

    The lower levels of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth had a poor rate to prevent the stronger cultivators from regaining their profound strength quickly so as to prevent them from oppressing the weaker cultivators.

    "I''ve thought that I may need a week or more to regain my profound strength¡­." He was sighing again.

    As he was meditating alone, Bai Qianfeng had suddenly approached him from behind as she said quietly. "My lord, I need to talk to you."

    Ji Yuan was immediately aroused by her presence as he lit an energetic smile, "Qianfeng, you''re here. Haha, I miss you dearly."

    Bai Qianfeng seemed to look around before she whispered with a soft sigh. "My lord, you have really met with the Death God Mingwang?"

    Ji Yuan was startled. "You believe me?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded lightly. "I believe you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Then, why don''t you say something a few days ago?"

    "I didn''t want the rest to know about him." Bai Qianfeng said quietly.

    "Why so?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes quickly before saying. "It is impossible for celestials to know the name of the Death God Mingwang. Only the deste immortals know of their existences. Can you share with Qianfeng on your fight with him? I am curious to know."

    ? Ji Yuan answered. "Um, sure¡­this is the ount¡­"

    ¡­

    ¡­

    ¡­

    "That is how I''ve defeated him." Concluded Ji Yuan after retelling his fight with the Death God Mingwang.

    Bai Qianfeng slowly nodded and there was a solemn look in her eyes.

    Finally after apse of silence, she said quietly. "The Death God Mingwang is one of the three Demon Kings of the Deste Realm. If he is in the Celestial Realm then it is of great concern. The Death God Mingwang is a vengeful God and if he fails to kill you this time, there won''t be a next time. He never fails in his vengeful hunt even if it takes him thousands of years."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Does he have to be so serious¡­

    "Even the Righteous Immortals may not know of their existences because they are not from the Immortal Realm."<sub> </sub>

    "Not from the Immortal Realm? Then what are they?" Ji Yuan was startled.

    "They are the original denizens and rulers of the Deste Realm. When the Great God Pangu had banished the Ancient Fortress to the Deste Realm, it was only then that we''ve known of their existence. And they are very formidable immortals." Bai Qianfeng added.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Even more powerful than the three great immortals?"

    The three great immortals are the Great God Pangu, the Great Lord Xuan Yuan and the World Ruler Fu Xi.

    Bai Qianfeng replied solemnly, "They''re on par with them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "But in recent years, the Great Demon God has proven to be the more powerful immortal of the Three Demon Kings of the Deste Realm. For an unknown reason, even the Death God Mingwang and the Deste Dragon God have submitted to him."

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "We have actually not heard from them for a long time because the Great Deste Realm is a big realm. To think that the Death God Mingwang is actually here."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "Do you think that the Great Demon God may be in the Celestial Realm? This is impossible, am I right?"

    "He is equivalent to a Great God. He definitely has the means to anchor himself to the Celestial Realm." Bai Qianfeng replied quietly.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "I hope not. If not, Jiajia may be in danger."

    Bai Qianfeng replied. "I hope not too that the Great Demon God Shenmu is the mastermind behind the Evil Cultivation Master. We have no means to defeat such a formidable great god. Even if he isn''t here, just the Death God Mingwang or the Deste Dragon God Longdi alone will be a terrible headache for us to deal with."

    "Aren''t immortals restricted in their cultivation strength here? Didn''t you say that you will face a bacsh if you use your cultivation strength beyond the seventh realm cultivation here? So we have a hope." Ji Yuan pointed out with a hopeful look.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "They are great gods. Even their seventh realm cultivation strength can produce profound power that is greater than any eighth realm immortals, especially when they have a divine sword in their hands."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "They may not be invincible in the Celestial Realm. If not, they would have turned the Celestial Realm havoc a long time ago."

    Bai Qianfeng slowly nodded. "But why are they in the Celestial Realm? Or rather, why is the Death God Mingwang here in this ce? If he is in the Immortal Realm then he can certainly turn the Immortal Realm upside down."

    Then she added bitterly. "If they are on our side then we won''t lose the Ancient Fortress and the war with the Pangu Immortals¡­"

    "Qianfeng, you''re not a deste immortal anymore. You''re now a righteous immortal now. Haha." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes as she said with great mncholy. "I may be a righteous immortal but my heart is with the deste immortals¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he grabbed her waist while staring down her bosoms. "Your heart is with me now. Since you''re here, why don''t we erm¡­"

    Xiang Li was immediately aroused from her drowsiness in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she shouted. "Yes! Yes! Finally!"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly. "My lord, do you think of this all the time? You have already got into so much trouble because of what you''ve done recently."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "What trouble?"

    "The ck panties and the event that happened three days ago." Bai Qianfeng reminded him.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Don''t remind me of this¡­"

    But he quickly grinned as he pressed onto her. "Qianfeng, I am dying to make love with you¡­"

    "Hmph!" Bai Qianfeng hummed softly as she pushed him away. "So you like to y a bondage game with Sisi."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "It is only a misunderstanding. Things aren''t what you''ve seen."

    "Are you saying that she forces you to do so?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "You can suppose so."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "Hmph! I am not talking to you anymore¡­"

    But before she could get away, Ji Yuan had rolled her onto the ground as he said gently to her. "Qianfeng, the night is short but my passionate heart for you is deep. I''m not going to let you go."

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes with a light flush before she slowly nodded. "Only on one condition first."

    Ji Yuanughed. "Don''t say one condition, even ten conditions are fine with me! Haha!"

    Bai Qianfeng lit a slow smile. "Don''t be in a hurry to say it so soon first."

 Chapter 268 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (3)

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked lecherous at Bai Qianfeng, determined to conquer her this night. "So what is the condition?"

    Bai Qianfeng slowly said. "My lord. I''ll like you to give up the attempt on entering the trial. It is nothing shameful if you were to give up the attempt. We can always attempt another trial elsewhere."

    "Oh that?" Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Actually, that is a spur of a moment. At that time, I''ve no profound strength to attempt the trial anyway. But after a few days of meditation, I''ve finally calmed myself down."

    "You mean you will give up the attempt to enter the trial?" Bai Qianfeng gasped softly.

    Ji Yuan grinned. "That''s right. Anything for my dear Qianfeng."

    "Really?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Actually now that I''ve calmed down, I have no intention of entering the trial anymore. Haha. The Sword Saint Trial is a trial that you won''t like taking a second time especially if it is harder one. I may be crazy sometimes but I am still sane."

    Then he quickly smiled. "So you''re mine tonight?"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered softly. "Not so fast. We don''t have the time for this. I''ve sneaked out just to speak with you."

    There was a disappointing look in Ji Yuan''s countenance as he muttered. "But you promise¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes as she said with a flustered voice, "Naturally I intend to keep my part of the bargain. This is my promise to you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "I will service you." She added sweetly as she began to kneel down before Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled as he quickly fondled all over Bai Qianfeng and he was eagerly loosening both his belt and hers. "I don''t mind a quickie too. Haha."

    He had slipped his fingers under her robe to find her soaking wet panties and was eagerly pulling it aside, fingering her into excited soft moans.

    Excited by Bai Qianfeng soft moans, Xiang Li had quietly appeared next to them.

    Only when Ji Yuan was making love to Bai Qianfeng alone, Xiang Li would dare to appear to have a better look.

    Bai Qianfeng lowered her head shyly as she stroked her long silver hair. "My lord, I want to know between Sisi and I, who is the better one."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "There is no need forpetition. All of you have a special ce in my heart. Moreover, I may not have much time in the world anyway."

    Bai Qianfeng sighed. "I am really afraid that I may lose you¡­"

    When she had first known Ji Yuan, she really did not like him at all. But things had changed so rapidly that she could not believe as well.

    All of a sudden, her life seemed to have revolved around her lord Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan was of course not paying to her soft sighs. Instead his deft fingers were rapidly stripping her and were caressing her excitingly.

    With an excited look, Ji Yuan had pulled his Qianfeng''s panties off her and had tucked it into his robe when all of a sudden he had heard a giggle; it came from Xiang Li who was squatting shyly nearby and was watching them intently.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately when he saw that Xiang Li had actually materialized in her physical form and was flushing dearly.

    She ought to stay in her spirit form¡­this gives me the creeps¡­it is like a third person is watching us while we are in the act¡­

    All of a sudden he had a further frown when his sharp eyes caught the opening between Xiang Li''s legs; she was not wearing anything inside and it was obvious that she got stirred by their passions.

    Ji Yuan immediately thought; I need to have a word with Xiang Li after this. As her Big Brother, I am constantly corrupting her eyes and I am an irresponsible brother. This is too sinful. I can''t change my ways but I can at least make sure that Xiang Li stays innocent¡­

    All of a sudden the entire sky had turned gloomy and lightning was suddenly shing down with a thunderous impact all around the mountain vicinity.

    Ji Yuan was startled by the sudden thunderstorm as he cursed softly, "Now we have to find a cave for our business."<sub> </sub>

    Bai Qianfeng had turned ashen as she quickly put on her robe again. "My lord, this is no ordinary thunderstorm."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I am not afraid of any thunderstorm. Can it be worse than my lightning tribtion?"

    "You don''t say so soon." Bai Qianfeng solemnly said. "The Trial of the Sword Saint has just started."

    Ji Yuan was stunned. "What did you just say? But we haven''t even entered into the trial yet¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered weakly. "The trial spirit is really very angry with you and has initiated the trial against you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "What did you just say? Is it even possible for the trial to start even when I haven''t entered into the trial portal? Is this trial spirit trying to kill me? He or she didn''t know who Xiang Li is?"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered. "Not all trial spirits recognize who Xiang Li is."

    Then she added solemnly. "I am tranting from the divinenguage of the trial spirit anger in the form of this thunderstorm. He says that you are a liar and is a disgrace to all the sword saints by backing off from the trial at thest minute¡­"

    Then she added with a flustered voice. "And he says how dare we desecrate his holy mountain with our unholy acts and even corrupting an innocent spirit entity that is with us. Therefore he has started the trial against us."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why am I so unlucky?!

    All of a sudden the other maidens had also arrived at the scene with a panicky look and Ji Yuan could hear them asking, "What is happening?!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes awkwardly before saying. "I am afraid that we have met with a vengeful trial spirit and he has triggered the trial for us."

    Bai Qianfeng muttered weakly. "Not us. Only for you. The trial spirit says this Sword Saint Trial may be for us but only you have to take this trial for all of us here. So if you can ovee this trial then we shall all pass the trial. If not, only you alone will die."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck is this? This trial spirit has not only spoiled my quiet time with Qianfeng and he is also trying to kill me now?!

    Ji Yuan was so angry that he had immediately disyed his divine sword as he raised it high above him. "Old Fart! Do you think that I''m afraid of you?!"

    There were several shes of lightning, followed by a thunderous booming sound that raked the surroundings as though an earthquake had struck the vicinity.

    Bai Qianfeng said as she tranted for Ji Yuan, "He says that of course you are afraid of him and that''s why you''re trying to run away. He isughing hard at you now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan returned a most bitter smile. "I shouldn''t have camped in this old fart''s holy mountain in the first ce¡­"

 Chapter 269 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (4)

    The entire heavens above the mountains had turned pitch ck except for shes of lightning that rumbled out from time to time.

    An invisible force had pushed Bai Qianfeng out of way and had sent her to the perimeters now.

    Only Ji Yuan was left alone to confront the trial that would soon be descending onto him.

    Ji Yuan still got a stupefied look on his face as he whispered to Xiang Li who had fled into his soul sea. "Xiang Li, please tell me¡­this isn''t real. Can you help me to reason to this old fart?"

    Xiang Li muttered, "He doesn''t listen to me. He bes even more upset when he had heard you calling him an old fart."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan were also watching the scene with disbelief; they just could notprehend how the trial would sudden start just like this.

    They simply did not want Ji Yuan to risk his life by taking the trial for them since he is the only Sword Saint in their party.

    Even though they had spent days trying to persuade Ji Yuan not to take the trial but Ji Yuan had refused to listen to them.

    That was why Ling Feiyue was nning to walk off from the trial if Ji Yuan still decided to enter the trial after he had recuperated his profound strength.

    And so were many of the maidens.

    They did not know that he was only yacting with them to show his manly pride.

    At the veryst minute, he would then pretend to throw away his pride for their sake.

    He had remarked with a chuckle back then. "Now it is not the time for me to take the trial because I have yet to regain my profound strength. After I''ve regained my profound strength, we shall enter the trial."

    But now Ji Yuan had a sheepish look because he was now taking the trial despite not entering into the trial.

    He was now cursing to the dark heavens with his stupefied curses. "Old fart! Who is afraid of who?"

    Xiang Li immediately groaned. "Big Brother, this is not going to help him calm his temper down."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "I just cannot resist this. I''ve a quick temper as well."

    Xiang Li chuckled all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Xiang Li, why are youughing at a time like this? You know we are going to lose to our lives soon?"

    Xiang Li face-palmed before she whimpered softly. "Sorry Big Brother. He is saying that you are an old fart as well and I cannot resist making a chuckle."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am an old fart?!

    He immediately shouted back to the dark heavens. "You must be blinded as well!"

    There were dozens of thunderous lightning and the whole vicinity was shaking with terrible rage after Ji Yuan had shouted.

    Bai Qianfeng, Xiang Li: ¡­

    They had decided it was better not to trante for Ji Yuan lest it would affect his ability to keep a level headed in his trial.

    Basically the trial spirit was saying, "Old Fart! You''ve dared to insult me time and time again. I am blinded?! Fine! Then I shall grant you the most difficult of the Sword Saint Trial, the Malevolent Gods Domain Trial!"

    They had really regretted tranting for Ji Yuan at this point and by now it was already toote¡­

    ? The white perimeter band that was surrounding Ji Yuan had already expanded three times and was pushing everyone further and further away from Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue muttered nervously. "I wonder what the Sword Saint Trial will look like¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng had turned ashen as she muttered. "You may very well wish that you did not know because our lord is now taking the trial¡­"

    Silently she was muttering. "The Malevolent Gods Domain¡­no way Ji Yuan can ovee this¡­"

    The dark heavens above had now been formed into a gigantic whirling maelstrom and power profound energies were spinning within it.

    Ji Yuan gripped the hilt of his saint-step divine sword tightly as heposed himself down to brace the battle ahead.

    He could sense a tremendous amount of sword energies that were building up within the maelstrom and he was a little startled by what he could sense; malevolent sword energies?!

    Usually sword energies were formed from the profound energies of the cultivator and depending on the cultivation of the practitioner, sword energies can be negative, positive or a neutral type. Bnce type sword energies have the least affliction to worry about.<sub> </sub>

    However negative and positive sword energies have deadly afflictions that are associated with it.

    Cultivators that are afflicted by negative sword energies injuries would feel cold chills while positive sword energies injuries would afflict a burning sensation.  Both were equally bad.

    Ji Yuan''s sword energies are the bnce type mainly because the Orthodox Sword Sect did not have any powerful internal profound arts to change the attribute types of their sword energies art.

    The sword energies attributes are actually bnced against each other.

    For example, negative sword energy practitioners are most afraid of positive sword energies injuries and vice versa. Bnce sword energy practitioners have some defenses against all types of sword energies but are weaker in offense.

    But this was the first time that Ji Yuan had encountered a malevolent sword energies type.

    He had encountered negative, extreme negative and pure negative sword energies practitioners but never such extreme killing malevolent sword energies that could send chills down to his very spine even before it was fully formed.

    He was cursing softly; now I wish that I''m a positive sword energies practitioner. At least I can ward off this uneasy sensation that is now all over me.

    Positive sword energies radiated a positive vibes that could ward off the cold and killing malevolent air of the negative type sword energies.

    A bright sword had suddenly burst out from the maelstrom and thousands of sword energies were now raining to the ground, exploding thunderously in a three meter radius impact!

    "Ji Yuan, be careful!" Many of the maidens were shouting for Ji Yuan to be wary of the approaching cmity.

    Ji Yuan quickly imbued his saintly divine sword with his sword energies as he swung his sword with great precision to parry the dozens of sword energies that were raining like a meteor rain on him.

    He was startled by the ferocity of the sword energies that he could feel the trembling of his fingers and soon even his arm was getting sore after a few blinks of an eye.

    But he had persisted until all the thousands of sword energies hadpletely rained down from the maelstrom.

    Ji Yuan was left to inhale breathlessly and he could feel the drain in his profound strength.

    Even though the sword energies rain was a small appetizer dish but he could not afford to let it hit him even once or he would have sustained serious internal injuries.

    And now a gigantic sword was suddenly descending from the heavens and there were numerous lightning that were shing on the ground below.

    "Xiang Li! It is either we survive or we are dead." Ji Yuan shouted as his sword spirit burst from his forehead as he readied his most powerful sword art the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to brace against the iing impact.

    There was no way that he could evade the gigantic sword and therefore he could only embrace the attack.

    Ji Yuan broke into a cold sweat because he had an uneasy omen and he could feel the overwhelming profound power that was above him as he muttered. "This is the Malevolent Gods Domain? I''ve never seen anything like this before."

    He was gulping continuously because he knew how the limit of his profound power.

    In his mind, he was already calcting the impact¡­

    10% chance of survival¡­

    5% chance of survival¡­

    No, 1% chance of survival¡­

    "Xiang Li, even our most powerful profound art can''t even deflect it¡­"

    Ji Yuan was not hopeful that he could neutralize the iing impact but he would survive as long as he could deflect the impacting malevolent sword aside.

    This was actually the purpose of the Sword Saint Trial. The sword practitioner had to calcte his odds of survival in all the circumstances.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s eyes sparked as he changed his sword stance and his sword energies had died down suddenly from his saintly divine sword.

    Xiang Li was startled. "Big Brother, what are you doing?!"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Xiang Li, I am concentrating all my profound strength to my divine sword."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan inhaled with a deep sigh. "I am taking a gambit now. Xiang Li, do you still remember that I have a ninth level to my Major Heavens Sword?"

    "I¡­remember¡­what is it?" Xiang Li stammered with a perplexed look.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, why don''t you just say that you can''t remember¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had suddenly grown solemn again. "The Sword of Destruction."

    Xiang Li gasped. "But have you ever used it before?"

    "That is why it is a gambit. It is either I seed or fail in my attempt to grasp the final level of the Major Heavens Sword." Ji Yuan slowly said as his saintly divine sword had suddenly turned pitch ck.

 Chapter 270 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (5)

    The Sword of Destruction was not exactly a powerful sword art. As a matter of fact, its destructive capability was in fact weaker than the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    "I am going for an all-out offensive." Ji Yuan said solemnly as he channeled his sword spirit to his right forehand.

    ? The reason why Ji Yuan had decided to take a gambit to use the Sword of Destruction was because he needed something that at least absorbs the blunt of the great impact that would soon descend upon him.

    His keen eyes could find no weakness in the gigantic sword that was now descending rapidly above him and he could feel the great pressure that was crushing onto him now.

    The gigantic sword above him was not a sword but consisted of millions of tightly packed sword energies particles that had formed into the image of a gigantic sword; it was pure sword energies and this was the Malevolent Gods Domain!

    Ji Yuan was staring at his pitch ck divine sword now, having condensed all his profound energies into his divine sword and his sword hand was trembling uncontrobly with profound power.

    The Sword of Destruction in theory was a sword art that could neutralize any profound energies and it would require the entire life force of the cultivator to use it.

    It was also known as the Life Force Sword because it tapped into the life force of the cultivator''s directly.

    It was said that only a great saint would be able to use this theoretical sword art from the Major Heavens Sword Art which was the secret sword art of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Ji Yuan did not know if any of his predecessors had ever used this sword art before. If they did then they may not live to tell the tale either¡­

    Xiang Li asked curiously. "Big Brother, I swear that you''ve never told me about this sword art before and I honestly never see you use this sword art before. Are you sure that it is erm...safe to use this sword art?"

    She was suddenly mncholy. "Why is it that I can suddenly feel the great sadness that is in your heart? What are you hiding from your Xiang Li?"

    Ji Yuan smiled gently. "Nothing Xiang Li. Don''t be afraid, alright? Soon, this will be over¡­"

    He quietly tapped his chest with his left hand to feel his beating heart as he sighed silently; Xiang Li, the Sword of Destruction doesn''t require the practitioner to practice it because it can only be used only once. After using it, your big brother won''t be around anymore¡­"

    He turned to view Xiang Li with his divine sense in his soul sea as he smiled gently to himself. "I am afraid that our journey will end this day. I don''t want to make any wish. If there is a next life then let''s us be reincarnation together as brother and sister again."

    Then he turned to look at the maidens that were watching him outside the white perimeter band with an equal mncholy look. "Good bye everyone."

    Ling Feiyue had a perplexed look as she stared nked in Ji Yuan''s direction. "What is this sword stance that Ji Yuan is using? I''ve never seen it before. It does look a little weak, am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng was gasping softly as she shook her head. "Why is that I''ve such an uneasy feeling about this? I can''t shake off this uneasy feeling¡­"

    Feng Minyue muttered. "His Sword Intent isn''t decreasing. Rather I can feel that it is increasing. But¡­"

    Little Princess also had a perplexed look. "Ji Yuan isn''t using his sword energies specialty to counter the gathering profound energies above him. Rather he seems to be condensing all his profound strength into profound power into his sword. But why is that so? He isn''t a power cultivator and he has no strong internal power art to enhance his profound power. Doesn''t he know that once the profound energies have struck him then he will also be defenseless?"

    Mu Wan''Er was covering her mouth as she added. "Because Ji Yuan isn''t a power cultivator and he had no profound defenses to ward off the profound energies at point nk¡­"

    Chen Hanhan had stepped back in shock as well. "The entire vicinity will explode with our lord in the middle¡­"

    Shui Xisi stammered. "This is the life force sword! Ji Yuan is burning his life force essences!"

    Ling Feiyue was shocked. "What did you just say?!"

    And so were all the other maidens!

    The life force sword was not a new profound sword art and it was actually known to many of the high level cultivators.

    But it was not universal practiced because it was known as the suicidal sword art because it would consume the life force essences of the practitioner and sometimes for just a small burst of power.

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly lost her cool as she screamed against the howling winds and the thunderous lightning. "Ji Yuan! What are you thinking!"

    Then she screamed at the heavens above. "You old fart! I swear to destroy you!"

    But the howling winds and continuous thunders drowned out her screams.

    Ji Yuan nor the trial spirit could hear her.

    Ji Yuan was smiling gently to himself as the memories of his life were now shing rapidly in front of him and he felt that he had not lived in vain.

    Because he did have a romantic journey with Jiajia and he had many beautiful maidens as his confidants.

    He could still remember how he had first met Jiajia, Feiyue and Qianxue that set him off on his romantic journey with them.

    He had merely taken just a hundred years for his breakthrough to the seventh realm saint level which was considered extremely fast already although he had no celestial resources for his breakthrough except for the divine sword that Jiajia had given him.

    When a cultivator is attempting his breakthrough, a divine sword is considered to be pivoted to the sess of his breakthrough.

    Ji Yuan could still remember how he had gritted his teeth as he held onto the divine sword that was given by Jiajia dearly to his chest as he fought against his life and death tribtions.

    There were many times that he had thought that he was already a dead man but the encouraging image of Jiajia who was still waiting for him had shed in his mind and this had kept his resolve strong.<sub> </sub>

    "ording to the sacred rules of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, a cultivator can hold another cultivator to a promised pledge for a hundred years. Jiajia has promised to wait me for a hundred years and I must seed within a hundred years!"

    Finally he had his forced breakthrough into the lofty seventh realm sacred saint level with just a divine sword in his hand and without any other cultivation resources; he had created a miracle breakthrough and had lived.

    The first thing that he had to do after his breakthrough was naturally to look for Jiajia.

    No wait!

    The first thing that he had to do after his breakthrough was naturally to regrow his beard because he had suddenly discovered he had lost his beard after his breakthrough!

    It was because in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, bearded cultivators were respected by all the cultivators and adored by all the maidens.

    At least that was what he had thought and imagine his horror that Jiajia would actually forgotten about his bearded self and like his new beardless self.

    It took Ji Yuan a lot of effort to shake off his love for his beard because he was deeply steeped in the great beard culture of the Deste Celestial Fraternity where beard cultivators were considered handsome and could stand proudly in front of all the cultivators.

    Actually while it took him a lot of effort to shake off his love for his beard but the will to do so was quite effortless; it was because he had no beard to regain anyway.

    Ji Yuan was now staring at the gigantic sword that was descending from the great maelstrom as he sighed deeply. "My beard, I''m joining you in the heavens soon¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly swung his double halo divine sword as the millions of sword energies bursts had swarmed onto him with a brilliant profound light.

    A pitch ck sword shadow could be seen as the millions of sword energies bursts were suddenly swayed to the side.

    A brilliant thunderous light had also exploded like a bright nova over the mountain top that Ji Yuan was standing and the entire mountains were all shaking violently as dust filled the entire vicinity!

    Xiang Li was screaming. "I don''t want Big Brother to die!!!"

    When the dusts had finally settled a little, the ck form of Ji Yuan could be seen standing on the tform and his robe was all tattered with wisp of smoke fluttering around him.

    But his profound aura waspletely dead.

    Ji Yuan was smiling as he closed his eyes weakly; Xiang Li. It is no use now. This time I did not make any wish. Even my subconscious did not make any wish. I was thinking of Jiajia, Feiyue, Qianxue, Chengxi and Yan''Er this time¡­in my next life I shall make sure that you''re an educated maiden and not follow a rascal cultivator like me¡­

    Even if I am dead, I''ll make sure that Feiyue, Qianfeng¡­will be able to ovee this trial¡­

    My life ispleted now. In this life,

    I''ve all the wish fulfillment, what''s more do I need to wish for?

    Jiajia¡­

    WAIT! Something off here¡­

    My life isn''tpleted yet¡­

    I haven''t banged Jiajia yet¡­

    I can''t die yet because I HAVEN''T BANGED JIAJIA YET!

    AND SHE WILL GREEN ME IF I WERE DEAD!

    All the maidens were wailing uncontroble for Ji Yuan when their sharp divine senses could sense a stirring in Ji Yuan''s lifeless body as he suddenly revived all of a sudden as he stopped the outflow of his life force in a nick of time.

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Chen Hanhan and Mu Wan''Er were all shouting excitingly. "Ji Yuan, he is still alive!!!"

    Indeed, the dead form of Ji Yuan was suddenly stirring slowly as he inhaled a vital breathe and his golden body was quickly reviving.

    From the dark heavens, an old grumpy voice was thundering with great disbelief as he finally spoken. "You!!! Old Fart, you''ve ovee the trial¡­"

    The trial spirit simply could not understand how Ji Yuan could ovee the life force sword energies in such a timely fashion. Once the life force energies is loosened, it is nearly unstoppable to halt it because its profound energies is even stronger than the profound strength of the cultivator to stop.

    Therefore the trial spirit had to grumble with some respect. "You''re truly a sword saint. I''ve really underestimate you. You must have reached the divine state of the absolute indomitable will."

    Ji Yuan looked up to the dark heavens as he listened weakly; what is he talking about?!

    He had no idea what the divine state of the absolute indomitable will was all about because in his mind, he was simply thinking that he have not bang Jiajia yet and he did not want to be green by anyone therefore he was not willing to die for now.

    Xiang Li was sobbing with tears as her physical tears dropped into Ji Yuan''s soul sea¡­

    For a moment she had thought that Ji Yuan was about to die and she did not want her Big Brother to die¡­

 Chapter 271 The Trial Of The Sword Saint (6)

    All the maidens were weeping with tears of joy as they quickly rushed forward to aid Ji Yuan once the white perimeter band had quickly disintegrated.

    Bai Qianfeng was the first maiden to rush to Ji Yuan as she cuddled into his embrace as she gasped. "My lord, you''re still alive¡­"

    Ji Yuan was so startled that he rolled onto the ground with her. He simply did not have any strength left to even stand properly at this point.

    He coughed weakly. "Do you know that you''ve just crushed into me and have just stuffed out my candle of light? Your lord is now dead because of you¡­"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly pulled his ear to her as she said excitingly, "Ji Yuan! I know that you won''t die so easily¡­"

    Little Princess had suddenly hit him on his chest which caused him to cough out aloud. "Ji Yuan, how dare you leave me here alone! If you do then I shall make sure that you will regret the day that you are born!"

    "Erm, are you trying to kill your lord?" Ji Yuan muttered weakly.

    If I were dead then I won''t even regret if I am born or not.

    Ling Feiyue was weeping as she hit him on his shoulder and chest as well as giving him a few kicks. However she did not use any force at all.

    In fact, it was very soft and tender as she looked sentimentally at him with her tearful golden eyes.

    "Ji Yuan, do you want me to wait you for the fifth lifetime?!"

    Ji Yuan looked awkwardly at Ling Feiyue as he muttered. "No¡­"

    "You are fine?" Feng Minyue asked quietly.

    "Lord Ji Yuan¡­are you alright?" Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan were both saying at the same time.

    Ling Feiyue rebuked him but she could only manage a gentle rebuke. "Do you think that we will feel grateful to you if you were to sacrifice for our sake? Listen, we don''t need your stupid sacrifice¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned and his eyes were beaming at all the attention that he was getting. "Haha¡­"

    The Trial Spirit rumbled out through the dark heavens with a grudging respect. "You''ve ovee this trial and you shall receive your reward. What is your name?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he restrained from cursing out aloud. "Ji Yuan."

    "So is this the name that you will like to engrave here?" The Trial Spirit asked.

    Ji Yuan replied bitterly. "No, just put my name as Old Fart."

    "Then Old Fart Ji Yuan, it shall be done." The rumbling voice echoed throughout the vicinity and the name ''Old Fart'' appeared just below the engraved letters of ''Death God''.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; did he have to add Old Fart Ji Yuan?

    Just my bad luck to have encountered such a vengeful trial spirit¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan shouted weakly, "Old Far¡­I mean Old Mighty Trial Spirit, shouldn''t my name be above ''Death God''? After all, I''ve ovee the Malevolent Gods Domain."

    The Trial Spirit rumbled aloud as lightning shed across the dark heavens. "He has also ovee the Malevolent Gods Domain and he is a better swordsman than you are. You are merely second."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly. "Is it so? Haha¡­"

    The maidens that were with him were startled. They had all seen the terrifying profound power that was generated by the Malevolent God Domain and it shivered them to think of even trying it.

    They did not even know how Ji Yuan could even survive the entire onughter of the Malevolent Gods Domain as everything was too much of a blur to them.

    Ji Yuan''s Sword of Destruction was able to absorb the profound energies into his saintly divine sword and hence, it had saved his body from being consumed utterly by the tremendous profound energies that had exploded into a brilliant mushroom nova.

    Even if he had the tremendous will to halt his life force from being drained away, it would still be impossible for him to survive the terrifying profound power of the Malevolent God Domain.

    The deep voice of the Trial Spirit resonated. "I don''t understand how you can ovee and even reverse the surge of your life force energies. You have clearly used a powerful life force sword art to ovee the Malevolent Gods Domain but you can only use it only once before your life force is extinguished by it."

    With a short pause, the Trial Spirit added. "I''ve just examined your profound aura but very clearly, you''ve not attained to the divine state of the absolute indomitable will. What gives you the indomitable willpower to reverse your life force in such a timely fashion?"

    Ji Yuan muttered silently; this Trial Spirit talks too much. I just want this to be done and get over from it¡­

    But he faked a smile before he said aloud. "This is true love. The love for all the maidens that are with me that keeps my bond to this ne of existence. I can''t die because they''re most precious in my heart."

    When the maidens heard Ji Yuan, they were all gasping softly and were flushing deeply.

    Ji Yuan had said it with a straight face.

    Naturally that was not the whole truth.

    The truth was, he was trying very hard not to think about them as he was most afraid that Xiang Li may make her wish. Although he may survive the Malevolent Gods Domain with Xiang Li''s help but he would also lose her forever.

    Therefore he could only refresh his past memories.

    And when he was thinking of Jiajia, he had suddenly realized that he had not banged her yet and that was his biggest regret in his life.

    After all, all his current predications had started because of Jiajia.

    He could only muttered silently; I''ve better not mention that I''ve been thinking of Jiajia or else I would be screwed big time by a group of zealous maidens¡­

    So he had used a ssic line of ''True Love'' that he had read somewhere before and had modified the lines.

    The Trial Spirit was left to mutter with shock. "True love?"

    Ji Yuan nodded lightly before he disyed his impish grin. "It is ''True Love'' that conquers all adversity."

    This time had restrained from adding his usual "Haha." Or else his story would easily been exposed as a fraud by the more observant maidens.

    The Trial Spirit was gasping loudly from the dark heavens above. "I''ve never heard of this state of divinity before¡­"

    Xiang Li was also gasping secretly; it was because she may not know the true reason why Ji Yuan was able to ovee his life force sword art and had lived but she could sense that Ji Yuan was trying to protect her.

    She cannot be mistaken by this as they are linked together through a single soul sea.

    In the soul sea, she would still sense his burning emotions; Xiang Li, I will protect you!

    She was gasping all of a sudden as she linked the protection with the ''True Love'' that her big brother had just mentioned.<sub> </sub>

    Big Brother, he likes me?

    Xiang Li was flushing all of a sudden¡­

    She covered her face with her palms in great shyness as she muttered silently; why didn''t he tells me that he likes me¡­I won''t say no for sure¡­

    All of a sudden there was a sh of light as two portals appeared in front of them. One portal was blue and the other one was green.

    The Trial Spirit thundered. "Old Fart Ji Yuan, your reward will be granted to you after you''ve stepped into the portal. Because you''re ovee my trial, you''re now a Sword Saint¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered miserably and silently; Old Fart! I''m already a Sword Saint! Do I need you to dere me as a Sword Saint again?

    The Trial Spirit continued. "As none of you have cleared the fourth level trial yet, the portal to the next level won''t be opened for any one of you yet. The blue portal will take you to the next location randomly while the green portal will take you to the limbo where you will wait for the entire trials of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth to be finished first."

    "So, make your way to the portal of your choice. However I must tell you first that only Old Fart Ji Yuan here will receive the trial reward."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; does he need to change my name to Old Fart?

    But he chuckled aloud. "Do we even need to think about the choice? Naturally we''re all going to take the blue portal!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and even Feng Minyue were all smiling; Ji Yuan is right. They don''t even need to think about it!

    But all of a sudden Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan had approached Ji Yuan as they said in chorus. "Lord Ji Yuan, we''ve decided to take the green portal!"

    Ji Yuan was stunned.

    He blinked his eyes and stared at them before he muttered. "The two of you are noting with me?"

    Chen Hanhan shook her head gently, "I don''t deserve to be in the same party as my Lord Ji Yuan."

    "I am a burden." Mu Wan''Er added quietly.

    Their replies stunned Ji Yuan.

    Chen Hanhan lit a smile before she looked away, "We may never be able to meet again. I am from a different celestial fraternity and there is no way for us to meet across the boundless mountains."

    Mu Wan''Er took Chen Hanhan as she muttered. "Hanhan¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Juste with me. I will take care of the two of you."

    Ling Feiyue folded her arms as she said quietly. "Ji Yuan, don''t you understand? They just don''t want to be your burden. This is their love for you."

    Mu Wan''Er nodded. "Indeed. We''re already quite happy to reach the fourth level. We are not saintesses and we''re already quite proud that we are able to reach this far now. So please do not dissuade us."

    "We don''t want to make you lose your life because of us. This is enough already." Chen Hanhan said bitterly. "I won''t forget about you and I hope that you won''t forget about me."

    "I won''t forget about you, Hanhan." Ji Yuan said solemnly. "And I will look for you after this."

    Chen Hanhan smiled weakly. "This is impossible. So please forget about it. I will always remember your love and I''m so sorry for trying to trick you in the first ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted. "Hanhan, do you want to be with me in the future? Will you give up everything to be with me?"

    Chen Hanhan was startled by Ji Yuan as she replied. "I do but¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned around to shout to the dark heavens above him. "Hey Old Mighty Trial Spirit, about my reward, I will like to forfeit it but I will like you to send Hanhan to the Deste Celestial Fraternity instead of her own celestial fraternity. Can this be done?"

    The Trial Spirit boomed loudly. "It can be done but it is against the immortalws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted loudly. "Can''t you see that she is madly in love with me? Have you never dated before or have a girlfriend before?"

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue was groaning softly to the others. "I''ve a bad feeling about this¡­"

    "So shall it be then." The Trial Spirit thundered loudly. "This shall be your trial reward."

    Ji Yuan was startled by the reply and so were all the maidens.

    Chen Hanhan was gasping with surprise. "But this is the fourth level and the reward must be something good. Moreover you''re the second cultivator to ovee this level¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a soft chuckle. "You''re my best reward."

    Chen Hanhan had a deep fluster on her cheeks. "My lord, thank you! I''m most willing to go to the Deste Celestial Fraternity to be with you then."

    Mu Wan''Er giggled softly as she held Chen Hanhan''s hands, "You can be my sister in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and together we shall follow Ji Yuan."

    Chen Hanhan nodded with utter happiness and she was looking at Ji Yuan with great delight.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as he said. "Our partings will be a short one. Perhaps this will be the best oue. In the limbo, you will be safe until the end of the trials here. If I am alive after this, I will surely look for the two of you."

    Mu Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan had suddenly embraced Ji Yuan together as they kissed him passionately. "Farewell my lord¡­"

    They did not want to be separated from Ji Yuan but they knew that the fourth level was beyond their ability to actually undertake. After they had seen the sacrifices that Ji Yuan had made, they became fearful for him and had secretly resolved not to be a burden for him anymore.

    True love demands that they give Ji Yuan the leeway to give his very best for the trial and they hope that Ji Yuan will be able to reach as high as possible in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan forced himself to smile as he reached for his spatial ring. "I am quite poor but I ought to give you a pledge to uphold my promise¡­"

    All of a sudden a panties had dropped from his robe and all the maidens were stunned by what they were seeing.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly and there was a light flush as she looked at her panties¡­

    "Ji Yuan, whose is this?!" Ling Feiyue gasped.

    All the maidens except for Bai Qianfeng were now questioning Ji Yuan; it was because they had all made an agreement not to disturb Ji Yuan while he was meditating for his lost profound strength.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes before he smiled awkwardly. "If I tell you that this belong to Xiang Li, will you believe me¡­"

    "No!!!" Many of the maidens had broken in chorus together.

 Chapter 272 Farewell Ji Yuanâ€¦

    After entering the blue portal, Ji Yuan and his group found themselves in a new ce that was surrounded by ck cliffs.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue again. "Xiang Li''s magic works again."

    Xiang Li could not resist a chuckle in his soul sea. "That is for sure!"

    Just as Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, a gentle voice that hade from Feng Minyue had suddenly said to him. "Ji Yuan, it is time for us to part."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Not only was Ji Yuan startled but Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng as well.

    "Why?" Ji Yuan inhaled softly. "You''re not happy with me or?"

    Feng Minyue averted her eyes before she shook her head. "I actually appreciate being in your party but I''ve my own group ofpanions¡­"

    Ji Yuan panicky said. "You can always rejoin them when we''ve found them. I promise you I won''t force you to stay in our party."

    Ling Feiyue nodded and her disappointment was clearly shown. "Ji Yuan is right. Maiden Feng, are you not happy with us? I''ve thought that we have all got along very well together?"

    Shui Xisi smiled. "I may not be terribly close to Sister Fan but I am sure that she doesn''t mind that you join us first. Moreover we have the obligation to take care of you while Sister Fan isn''t here."

    Little Princess rolled her eyes; this Shui Xisi was already treating herself as part of their original party¡­

    "Why do you want to leave?" Even Bai Qianfeng was asking quietly. In her heart, Ji Yuan is the greatest cultivator and there is no reason to leave the party. Moreover Maiden Feng Minyue isn''t a weak cultivator and she is a peaked great saintess.

    In fact, she is on par with Shui Xisi, above Ling Feiyue and Little Princess in her cultivation realm level.

    Even Xiang Li was gasping silently in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Nooo!!! No! No please!"

    Ji Yuan forced himself to smile. "Look! They all want you to be in the party as well. We are so d to have you with us. Will you stay with us then?"

    Feng Minyue lowered her head quietly¡­

    The main reason why she did not want to stay in the party is because she feels out of ce; all these maidens have some sort of rtions with Ji Yuan except for her.

    In her heart, she is thinking that it is best that she does not disturb their romantic moments. With her around, there are not many chances that Ji Yuan has with his women.

    Yes, I''m a light bulb¡­It is best that I leave¡­

    So she lifted her head to smile gently. "I''ve already decided. Farewell and best of luck."

    Without waiting for Ji Yuan to reply, she had already turned around and leapt up high above the ck cliffs.

    With a mncholy heart, Feng Minyue had vanished out of sight with a few blinks of an eye.

    Ji Yuan was left stunned¡­

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes as she looked at Ji Yuan, "So our Romantic Cultivator Ji Yuan has just lost a beautiful maiden."

    Little Princess could not resist a chuckle. "Make it three instead of one."

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile. "It seems like this."

    Bai Qianfeng asked him. "You''re not going after her?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin to ponder¡­

    Actually he was not a lecherous cultivator and throughout the years, he had actually chosen his daopanions selectively.

    In fact, he was known as the Most Beautiful Bearded Cultivator and Great Poet Ji Yuan, admired by thousands of maidens all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    While his fellow cultivators were busy chasing the beautiful maidens, Ji Yuan was barely moved by them no matter how beautiful they were.

    However as he was often in the drinkingpany of his fellow cultivators, he had to pretend that he was an badass lecherous arrogant golden celestial that was the same as all the others.

    The truth was, he had never recovered from his shameful experience with Little Princess and broken romance with Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo (Yuxian).

    When he had lost Yuxian, he had thought that he would never fall in love again until he caught sight of Jiajia.

    All of a sudden, his manly vibes and interest in the opposite sex had suddenly returned.

    Jiajia had an enticing charm that had suddenly caught his attention and he had thought that she was a very special maiden even though she was only a fifth realm golden celestial when they had first met while he was already a peaked sixth realm golden supremacy.

    He did not know that at that time she was actually a peaked great saintess as well as the true prot¨¦g¨¦ master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    Actually he did not put much hope that Jiajia would give him any attention and he was not the type of cultivator that would force a weaker cultivator to submit to him.

    But to his surprise, Jiajia had actually agreed to his pledge of waiting for him for a hundred years.

    A hundred years may be a blink of an eye to a celestial cultivator but to Ji Yuan, it was far too short.

    He did not put much hope that he would be able to be a saint and to protect Jiajia from Xue Qianxue in a hundred years but he was willing to try to offend the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    It was because Jiajia really stirred his heart.

    And so was Feng Minyue.

    But he did not want to force her to stay in his party so he had to let her go¡­

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply. "It is alright. Let her go. She has been a great help to us already. The Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth is a personal trial for the cultivators. We shouldn''t stop her from attempting her own trial lest it will be detrimental to her future attainment."

    Ling Feiyue slowly nodded. "I guess that you are right."

    Ji Yuanughed as he disyed his lightless profound art as he jumped up to a nearby ledge. "Come. Let''s us go now as well."

    "My lord¡­" Little Princess began to mutter. "Isn''t this direction where Maiden Feng has just gone to?"

    Shui Xisi also returned a perplexed look. "That''s right¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly. "I did say it is alright for Maiden Feng to leave our party but I didn''t say we are not following her, am I right?"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng asked. "How are you going to follow her? Did you not see her swiftness movements earlier? You can never catch up with her or know the exact direction that she is going to."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his nose with a grin. "Maiden Feng Minyue is known as the Fragrance Princess and therefore she has a distinct fragrance that is always lingering around her. And it happens that my nose is really very sharp and I think I will be able to track her down."

    All the maidens were all gasping softly; by now they had known that Ji Yuan''s eyesight was really sharp but they had forgotten how sharp Ji Yuan''s nose really is or did not know about it.

    Only Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng knew that Ji Yuan has a really sharp nose¡­

 Chapter 273 The Devil Goddess

    Jin Yilong could not believe his extraordinary luck.

    After he had shaved off his beard, a stunning maiden had suddenly appeared and asked with a smile. "Are you lost? Do you need any help?"

    Jin Yilong was quite startled by her appearance.

    Zhao Songjin, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue are already very astonishing but this stunning maiden was even more so.

    In fact, she was as beautiful as Shui Xisi¡­

    Jin Yilong quickly smiled. "I am Jin Yilong and I''m from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I''ve hailed from the Mystic Profound Pavilion."

    The stunning maiden returned a startled look, "I''ve thought that the men in the Deste Celestial Fraternity prided themselves on their beards? But what happens to your beard?"

    All of a sudden, the stunning maiden had realized that she was being too rude for not introducing herself so she quickly added with an alluring smile. "I am the High Priestess of the Universal Truth Sect. My name is Fan Yuqing and I''m from the Nine Celestial Fraternity."

    Jin Yilongughed shamelessly. "Even though I am from the Deste Celestial Fraternity but I''ve always found beards to be ugly."

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly. "You definitely look more handsome without a beard."

    Jin Yilong was thinking; what luck. It seems that I don''t have to castrate myself to get out of this situation anymore¡­

    "What are you thinking and why are you staring at me?" Fan Yuqing asked shyly.

    Jin Yilongughed lecherously as she stared at Fan Yuqing''s short skirt and admired her long porcin legs. "That is because you are such a heavenly maiden. I am a saint and you?"

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly. "I am a great saintess."

    Jin Yilong stared with great disbelief. This astonishing stunning maiden is actually a great saintess. No matter how he looked at her, she doesn''t seem to be a great saintess. Rather she has a most amicable feeling around her¡­

    Fan Yuqing smiled. "It seems that your injuries are not light. If you don''t mind, we can group together to ovee this trial together. This is a kill quest after all."

    Jin Yilong immediately smiled. "I don''t mind at all. Why should I mind at all? Hahaha."

    He simply could not believe his great luck.

    Just when he had thought that he had dropped into a pile of shit, there would be such a stunning maiden that would deliver herself to him.

    Secretly he was already rubbing his spatial ring for his love potions. Even though these love potions may not work that particr well against a great saintess but given time, it was bounded to work anyway.

    At the very least, Jin Yilong was quite confident of his art of seduction which he had been practicing for many centuries.

    All of a sudden Fan Yuqing said with a startled gasp. "Saint Jin, your profound animus looks a little erratic. I can''t be wrong on this. Why is that so?"

    Jin Yilong sighed deeply. "I have actually been struck as an Initial Saint for a long time. It is due to my constant battles against the evil-doers that have weakened by golden body and hence it has also affected my cultivation."

    Fan Yuqing sighed softly but she quickly lit a smile. "You are a good man. I can feel it. You deserve better. Maybe I am your luck star."

    Then she took out a bright profound pill. "Although this Mystic Star Profound Pill is extremely precious but it is of no use to me. But to you, it will be invaluable."

    Jin Yilong was stunned when he saw the Mystic Star Profound Pill. This is a fifth rank profound pill that could restore his meridian energies and can even aid him for a breakthrough to a middle-tier saint!

    His divine sense quickly enveloped the Mystic Star Profound Pill and he knew that it was not a fake profound pill. He had previously done several researches on this profound pill and had been trying to obtain it but had failed. It was because the Mystic Star Profound Pill was far too precious to be sold by the zealous cultivators.

    Jin Yilong said solemnly. "What do you want for it? I have great wealth¡­"

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly. "I don''t want your great wealth. I admire your guts in shaving off your beard and I think that you''re a great hero."

    Jin Yilong''s ego began to inte as heughed jovially while eying her lecherous. Not only would he soon be a middle-tier saint but he would also be banging such a na?ve beauty who also happens to be a great saintess.

    When he had thought of that, his spirit began to soar to the heavens.

    Fan Yuqing gently put the Mystic Star Profound Pill in his hand, "Why are you so shy? Take it please or do you want me to feed you?"

    Jin Yilong chuckled. "I don''t mind at all."

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly as she flushed shyly. "You are just like a big kid. Alright then¡­open your mouth and I will feed you."

    Jin Yilongughed jovially as he opened his mouth as Fan Yuqing said sweetly to him. "Now you''re a good kid¡­"

    When Jin Yilong swallowed the profound pill, he felt very sweet and he was already thinking that this Great Saintess Fan was an all too easy prey.

    "So how is it? Is it sweet?" Fan Yuqing giggled softly.

    Jin Yilong roared heartily. "Sweet, very sweet but it is not as sweet as you. I wonder if your lips are sweeter?"

    Fan Yuqing averted her eyes shyly. "Look at you. You have such a sweet mouth."

    Jin Yilong patted his chest loudly. "I am speaking the truth! This is no ttering. I really think that it is fated that we have met here in this ce. Heavens must really be kind to us and is giving us an opportunity to be together."<sub> </sub>

    "Not really." Fan Yuqing giggled softly. "I''ve followed you here."

    Jin Yilong: ???

    Fan Yuqing exined. "I saw your confrontation with Ji Yuan."

    Jin Yilong: ???

    "You know Ji Yuan?"

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly. "Of course I know Ji Yuan. He is soon to be my brother-inw in fact to my Sister Jiajia¡­heehee¡­"

    Jin Yilong: !!!

    "Then why are you helping me since you know Ji Yuan? And who is this Jiajia?"

    Fan Yuqing smiled lovingly. "You don''t have to know who Jiajia and who says that I am helping you? What you have swallowed isn''t the Mystic Star Profound Pill."

    Jin Yilong was startled. "But I won''t be wrong¡­"

    He could not be wrong because the Mystic Profound Pavilion is renowned for its vast collection of celestial herbs and he had seen the Mystic Star Profound Pill in the past before.

    "Do you mean this?" Fan Yuqingughed as she held the Mystic Star Profound Pill in front of him. "This is the real one but what you have swallowed earlier isn''t. The real Mystic Star Profound Pill is bitter and not sweet. In fact, the sweeter it is, the more poisonous it is."

    Jin Yilong had immediately turned ashen. "What is it that you''ve given me?!"

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes as she giggled yfully. "It is something that can rot your little precious permanently unless you have an antidote."

    Jin Yilong smiled bitterly. "I won''t be taken in by you. I have a saint golden body and I won''t be affected by any poisons. I don''t believe."

    Fan Yuqing giggled. "It is not a poison but a profound pill to change you into a woman."

    Jin Yilong: ¡­

    "I''ve nothing against you, am I right? Why are you doing this to me?"

    "Even though you have nothing against me but I''ve already heard of what you have done to Ji Yuan. Moreover I think that Ji Yuan''s punishment to you is just too light so I''ve decided to take it into my own hands." Fan Yuqing chuckled softly as she pushed Jin Yilong to the ground.

    Jin Yilong stammered. "What¡­do¡­you want and who exactly are you?"

    Fan Yuqing smiled coldly. "Who am I? I am the Devil Goddess."

    Jin Yilong was stunned. Even in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, he had already heard of the bad repute of the Devil Goddess.

    He stammered. "The Devil Goddess of the Three Demonic Realms? But¡­isn''t she dead already?"

    Fan Yuqing smiled. "I am standing in front of you now. But since you''ve seen my true face and know who I am, I don''t think that I can allow you to live anymore¡­"

    "No, please! I won''t tell anyone who you are!" Jin Yilong quickly stammered out.

    Fan Yuqing smiled coldly. "It is already toote."

    "No wait please! I''ll do anything that you say. Just¡­spare me¡­" Jin Yilong panicky said as he turned ashen.

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes before she chuckled. "Anything that I say? You mean it?"

    Jin Yilong nodded panicky as he stammered out. "Anything. Just don''t kill me¡­"

    Fan Yuqing folded her arms before she said coolly. "I know that you''re one of the masterminds that have conspired with the Evil Cultivation Pce to kill Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    "How do you know about this?" Jin Yilong stammered out as he turned ashen.

    "Naturally I have my means to find out about this." Fan Yuqing said coldly. "Ji Yuan may not know about it and even if he knows, he may still decide to spare you."

    Jin Yilong smiled bitterly as he quicklyposed himself. "I am sure that you want something from me. State your conditions. Surely you didn''t tell me all these without any purposes. If you want me dead, you would have already done so already."

    All of a sudden Fan Yuqing had shed her divine sword and delivered a powerful profound stroke into Jin Yilong''s heart, stunning him¡­

    Jin Yilong stared with great disbelief at Fan Yuqing. "You¡­you¡­why did you do that for¡­didn''t I say that¡­I will be willing¡­to fulfill your conditions¡­"

    Fan Yuqing smiled coldly. "Firstly, you think too highly of yourself. Secondly, I am the Devil Goddess and I''ve no grudge about killing anyone. Thirdly, only a dead man will be able to keep my identity a secret. Fourthly, haven''t you heard that the Devil Goddess likes to y sports with the others?"

    "Andstly, you''re just a scum."

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes as she smiled silently; s, Sister Saintess Minyue. I saw you looking at Ji Yuan with such a lost look. Finally I''ve got hold of your gossips. Heehee¡­"

 Chapter 274 The Great Forsaken Basin

    At the northern tip of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, in the Great Forsaken Basin where the deste mists could be seen sucking into a gigantic maelstrom that was a hundred miles wide below.

    A veiled maiden in brilliant blue had slowly appeared from the edge and said quietly to the veiled maiden in white who was quietly walking behind her. "Songjin, so this is where the real base of the Evil Cultivation Pce is?"

    The veiled maiden in white was indeed Zhao Songjin as she returned a light nod, "Highly probable. But there is nothing here at all."

    The veiled maiden in brilliant blue was actually Jiajia, known as Feifei to her Sister Shui Xisi and moremonly known as Saintess Fang Zhenfei. She also has another secret alias and that is the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    "This ce has a strong deste presence, especially the maelstrom that is in the middle. In fact, I''ve never seen or heard anything like this before until you''ve brought me here."

    Zhao Songjin smiled bitterly. "This is actually the first time that I am here as well."

    Jiajia looked intently into the deste maelstrom that was spinning below before she inhaled slowly. "It is quite impossible for the Evil Cultivation Pce to have a base in there. This ce is full of deste profound beasts and they can''t cultivate in this ce unless¡­"

    "Unless they can cultivate like the deste beasts which mean that they may not be celestials after all, am I right? Are they immortal cultivators?" Zhao Songjin interrupted quietly.

    "And who exactly are you? What is your vendetta with them?"

    Jiajia refused toment as she continued to stare intently at the whirling deste maelstrom.

    "You don''t trust me? I can fully understand." Zhao Songjin sighed softly. "We are but temporary allies."

    Jiajia said slowly. "You''re right. They''re deste immortals. As for who I am, it may be pointless for me to hide anymore. I''m the Divine Pce Mistress of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Zhao Songjin was so startled that she had taken a step backward. "You are the head of the three most mysterious pces in the fraternity. This is¡­really a surprise. Why then, are you sharing this with me?"

    Jiajia turned to her with a wry smile. "Aren''t you one of us now? Why, are you thinking of backing off from our newly formed syndicate?"

    Zhao Songjin inhaled slowly before she lit a smile. "This is my honor to follow the renowned Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce."

    Then she asked curiously. "But are you certain that they are immortal cultivators? In all my years in the Evil Cultivation Pce, I have never known that there are immortal cultivators in there. Are you saying that the Evil Cultivation Master is an immortal cultivator? But the Evil Cultivation Pce had just suffered a crushing defeated recently and must be terribly weak."

    Jiajia replied slowly. "The Evil Cultivation Master may not be an immortal cultivator. Even if he is one, he is the least concern because there is someone extremely powerful that is aiding the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Zhao Songjin smiled. "I''ve heard that the immortal cultivators can''t freely roam the Celestial Realm because they''re restricted in their profound strength here. They may be able to win our greatest saint one to one but against so many saints, they are helpless as well. Shall we go back to inform the rest of our sisters and rally the strength of our sects to finish the Evil Cultivation Pce once and for all?"

    She added with a tease. "Surely thebat strength of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce alone will be sufficient. The rest of us are just extras."<sub> </sub>

    Jiajia averted her eyes to say mncholy. "A lone immortal cultivator had appeared from nowhere a few months ago and hady waste to my Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Zhao Songjin was startled. "A lone immortal cultivator? This is impossible, am I right?"

    "That is why I''ve forbid the rest of them toe with us to this ce because it may be too dangerous for the rest of them." Jiajia slowly said.

    Zhao Songjin muttered with disbelief. "I don''t understand. If the Evil Cultivation Pce is so strong, why are they hiding their strength? Why did they allow themselves to be defeated so utterly that everyone has thought that it will probably take the Evil Cultivation Pce years to recover? And what is the purpose in this?"

    All of a sudden Jiajia had pulled Zhao Songjin behind her as she disyed her profound animus to conceal the two of them as they bended into the surrounding mountains; it was because a lone cultivator had suddenly levitated from out of the whirling maelstrom and he was looking intently at the surroundings.

    Zhao Songjin was stunned; she had never seen a cultivator disying true flight before and this cultivator seemed to be able to lift himself up with just his profound animus alone. Surely he must be an immortal cultivator!

    She could feel great dread upon her and she had broken into cold sweat. She knew instinctively that this cultivator would be able to kill her in a single instant.

    Never had she felt such intense fear before!

    The profound aura of this cultivator was like the zing sun!

    This lone cultivator donned a green and white full te armor at what appeared to be an armor that was shaped like a five w dragon.

    After scanning around for a while, he vanished into the whirling maelstrom again.

    Zhao Songjin had turnedpletely ashen and when she had turned to Jiajia to heave a soft sigh of relief, she was startled that Jiajia was trembling uncontrobly.

    "Saintess Zhenfei, are you alright?" Zhao Songjin stammered.

    Jiajia was staring into the maelstrom with bleary eyes. "He is the one¡­that had killed my Xiao Ruan. I can sense Xiao Ruan''s death animus that is upon him¡­"

    Zhao Songjin had immediately regretted suggesting that they should storm into the maelstrom earlier after witnessing the profound aura of this unknown cultivator that had suddenly appeared.

    In fact the appearance of this unknown cultivator had caused her to wet herself because she was so sure that he would be able to locate her immediately.

    But somehow Jiajia had shielded them from being discovered.

 Chapter 275 The S Rank Trial (1)

    On the fourth level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth;

    There were thousands of cultivators on the tform and they were all waiting for the trial entrance to be opened.

    The majority of the cultivators were sixth and seventh realm cultivators from all over the Celestial Realm, with the fifth realm cultivators numbering only in the mere hundreds.

    The main reason why there were so few fifth realm cultivators here was because it was a daunting challenge to even reach the fourth level.

    Needless to say, these fifth ream cultivators that can reach to this level are all geniuses or cultivators with extraordinary good fortune to be able to reach at around the same time as the sixth and seventh realm cultivators.

    Right now, everyone was staring at one another because they were allpetitors in this trial and also at the ck portal that was shimmering on the side of the mountains.

    This ck portal would only open when 10,000 cultivators had touched the ck stele.

    At the moment, there were only 9994 cultivators presented and short of 6 cultivators required to open the ck portal.

    The name of this trial was the Sky Jade Mansion.

    In this trial, all the cultivators had the same starting point and this trial required that they entered a Sky Jade Mansion toplete the trial.

    The details of this trial were sketchy and they would not know the exact details until they were inside the trial.

    But one day was clear and had kept them from leaving the area was that the trial had a ''S'' denoted to it at the top of the ck stele.

    And it was this ''S'' that had stopped the cultivators from leaving!

    This was an S Rank Trial, a trial with fabulous rewards and profound treasures within it!

    The chance of encountering an S Rank Trial was roughly 1 in 1000 trials and that was the main reason that was stopping the cultivators from leaving the vicinity and decreasing the headcount required.

    As the numbers grew close to 10,000, everyone was inhaling nervously and praying that thest six cultivators would soon arrive in the vicinity.

    The atmosphere in the vicinity was getting more and more unfriendly as the numerous genius cultivators were all staring coldly at one another for the fabulous treasures thaty within this trial.

    If it was not for the fact they would need every cultivator to be alive to enter this S Rank Trial, a fight would have long broken out between the cultivators.

    Some of the cultivators had been here for as long as more than a month and they were getting more and more impatient.

    It was because they had wasted valuable time to camp here and should already have been on the fifth level by now.

    But as this was an S Rank Trial, they began to grit their teeth to wait for the trial entrance to be opened.

    A fabulous looking maiden with a golden zither in her arm had suddenly said sweetly to the thousands of cultivators at the entrance. "Why don''t I y a little music to entertain everyone here and to cool the mood here?"

    Although her sweet voice was soft but her sweet voice had much rity. This spoke volumes of her internal profound art.

    Immediately many of the cultivators were looking in her direction and into her sweet and alluring smile.

    Naturally, there were also many cultivators that were already looking into her direction ever since she had arrived a few days ago. Naturally it was because she was also an extremely alluring eye candy maiden.

    A cultivator in ck robe that carried a long ck spear said coolly as his quiet voice drowned out all the incessant muttering. "I don''t mind at all."

    Many of the cultivators were startled by the internal profound art of this ck robe cultivator that could put many saints to shame.

    The fabulous looking maiden smiled gently as she said. "You must be the Verdant ck Spear Cultivator Lin Antian. You''re from the Spill Sky Celestial am I right?"

    The ck robe cultivator was startled. "You know me?"

    How could a cultivator from another celestial fraternity possibly have known about him?

    The fabulous looking maiden returned a sweet smile. "Someone as famous as you is naturally well known throughout the Celestial Realm."

    "Hmph!" There was a cold humph from another cultivator in purple and his cold humph seemed to be rippling several times in the vicinity, startling the many cultivators with his internal profound art as well.

    Everyone turned to look in his direction and was quite startled that it was actually a cultivator in purple that they had been mocking for the past several weeks.

    The reason why they had been mocking him was because he was always carrying a pink rabbit in his arm and he looked like a weak cultivator.

    But he turned out to be such a powerful internal profound art cultivator!

    "Oh it is you?" The fabulous looking maiden smiled. "If I am not wrong then you must be Tang Yumen, a great saint from the Barren Celestial Fraternity."

    Tang Yumen began to frown. "You know me?"

    He too had a perplexed look on his countenance.

    The fabulous looking maiden giggled softly. "Naturally I do because you are a renowned cultivator as well."

    A third cultivator in a grey robe coolly said. "This maiden here must be an extraordinary cultivator in order to know so many cultivators from the different celestial fraternities. I wonder who this maiden is?"

    The fabulous looking maiden giggled softly as she returned a meaningful nce at the cultivator in grey robe. "You must be the Charming Cultivator Chu Ren. You''re indeed a really charming cultivator."

    Chu Ren began tough heartily and hisughter began to thunder throughout the vicinity.

    His internal profound art was not weak either!

    And everyone could see that he was indeed very good looking as well!

    Chu Ren said coolly. "It isn''t fair that maiden knows our names but we don''t know your name, am I right?"

    When he had said that, many of the cultivators were echoing. "That''s right! This maiden should at least tell us her name!"

    The fabulous looking maiden averted her eyes shyly before she said coolly. "Yu Jingjing is my namesake. I hail from the Endless Celestial Fraternity and I''m the Holy Oracle Priestess of my sect the Holy Oracle Sect. As long as you are a renowned cultivator, I will surely know who you are."<sub> </sub>

    Many of the cultivators were now muttering. "So her name is Yu Jingjing¡­"

    Yu Jingjing smiled. "Please allow me topose music with my zither to create an ambience mood for everyone. Who knows, maybe my music will be able to reach out to the lost cultivators that are nearby and bring them to this vicinity?"

    Many of the cultivators were now gasping and praising her. "That is a good idea¡­"

    "Why not?"

    "To be able to hear a great beautyposing music for our ears, is such a great thing¡­"

    Yu Jingjing smiled as she gently put down her zither in front of her. "Please allow me then to pleasure everyone with my music¡­"

    "Wait a minute!"

    There was a loud shout from above the cliffs and a lone cultivator had suddenly stood on the cliff. This caused everyone to look in his direction.

    This cultivator was a stranger that had suddenly appeared and he was really a good looking cultivator.

    He was grinning. "I''ve finally got everyone attention. I''ve to shout several times. Haha."

    Many of the cultivators were thinking; of course he had to shout several times because it was obvious his internal profound art was weak and he had to shout loudly to deliver his voice on top of the thousands of voices that were all talking at the same time.

    One of the cultivators from below began to shout back. "Don''t just stand there. Go and touch the ck stele and wait like the rest of us!"

    But the stranger cultivator pretended not to hear and instead he wasughing jovially. "This Maiden Yu, I am just a little curious. Do you know who I am?"

    Yu Jingjing disyed a displeasure frown. "From your robe style, you''re from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. As for who you are, you''re just a nobody because you are a beardless cultivator. In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, a beardless cultivator is to be mocked and ridiculed."

    When she had said that, many of the cultivators were roaring with jovialughter.

    The stranger cultivator seemed to have a shock on his countenance and he was frowning with displeasure. "I am a nobody?!"

    All of a sudden a veiled maiden in white that was standing in the crowd said coolly. "He is Ji Yuan, a great hero from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. He is also a sword saint as well as a great poet. He isn''t a nobody!"

    The veiled maiden in white had an alluring figure and her voice was really beautiful and moving.

    Many of the cultivators began to wonder what this maiden really looked like behind her veil¡­

    The veiled maiden in white that had just spoken was actually Feng Minyue and she was quite startled to see Ji Yuan again; it was because she had ensured that she had covered her tracks well so that Ji Yuan would not be able to follow her.

    She had thought. "If we are fated to meet then this may be our destiny. The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a vast ce with numerous trials so it is unlikely that we will be able to meet here¡­"

    But to her astonishment, she had met Ji Yuan here so soon¡­

    At the same time she was wondering; where are the other maidens in his group?

    Yu Jingjing smiled as she looked in Feng Minyue''s direction. "You are from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. Naturally, you won''t know the exact situation in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "He is really Ji Yuan!"

    "The Great Hero Ji Yuan!"

    "He is here!"

    Many of the cultivators that were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity were all shouting excitingly. "He is Ji Yuan!"

    All of a sudden Yu Jingjing had a flushed countenance and she was stunned that so many of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity were all iming to know Ji Yuan¡­

    "Hey, isn''t this my Brother Ji Yuan? Hahaha." A bearded cultivator began to shout loudly and his internal profound art was not weak at all.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he recognized Mo Bei¡­

    "You look really ugly without your beard. Hahaha." Mo Beiughed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am ugly?!

    "Don''t just stand there and quickly touch the ck stele. We''re in luck. This is an S Rank Trial!" Mo Bei waved at him to the direction of the ck stele.

    Then he smiled coldly in the direction of Yu Jingjing. "It seems that you are not as up-to-date."

    Yu Jingjing replied coldly. "That is only because the Deste Celestial Fraternity is only a small celestial fraternity. No one wants to know anything that has happened in a barbaric celestial fraternity, especially in a ce where there are weirdo cultivators that prided themselves on their beards."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Maiden Yu, actually I think you are a fraudster yourself, am I right?"

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "I will be a fraudster? You are maligning me!"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he said coolly. "The three earlier men, actually the four of you are in this together, am I right?"

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

 Chapter 276 The S Rank Trial (2)

    Ji Yuan pointed a finger at Yu Jingjing. "You don''t even know who I am but yet you know who they are. If it isn''t pre-nned then what is it?"

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words!"

    Ji Yuan began to roar heartily. "Youngss, when I start to lie, you aren''t even born yet!"

    "Hmph! As though you''re an old man." Yu Jingjing hummed aloud.

    Ji Yuan grinned. "Maybe not as old as an old hag like you."

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    "Hmph! You will remember this! I am justzy to argue with you!" Yu Jingjing picked up her zither before she stormed off.

    Ji Yuan began to ignore her as he shed toward Feng Minyue with a soft chuckle. "Maiden Feng, so we have met again. What a coincidence!"

    Feng Minyue muttered. "Indeed it is. Where is the rest of your group?"

    Ji Yuan whispered. "Behind me."

    Indeed.

    Shortly after Ji Yuan had shed down, four veiled maidens had appeared on the cliffs above.

    Everyone could tell that these four maidens had moving figures but this was not what got everyone excited; they had five newly arrival cultivators now and if they decided to touch the ck stele and remain in the vicinity then the total number of cultivators in the vicinity would be 9999, 1 short of 10,000 for the trial entrance to open its ck portal for them.

    Feng Minyue asked curiously. "Why didn''t you travel with them?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "I''ll exinter¡­"

    The reason why Ji Yuan was not traveling with them was not because he had got into a fight with Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng or Shui Xisi but because Ji Yuan felt that he was a little unlucky recently.

    So he said to them. "Why don''t we pretend not to know each other instead? In this way, I can keep a low profile as well."

    The other four maidens immediately agreed with him and they were secretly giggling among themselves; it was because they know Ji Yuan better than he knows himself.

    Ling Feiyue was rolling her eyes and was already thinking. "I will make sure that you will regret your little decision by flirting with the other cultivators¡­"

    All the other three maidens were all thinking the same as well as they exchanged soft giggling with one another; they wanted to make sure that Ji Yuan would regret this little decision of his and banged his head.

    But at this moment Ji Yuan really did not know what they were up as he was feeling a little out of lucktely so he wanted to try to be in a low profile.  Or so it seemed.

    That was why Ji Yuan had appeared ahead of them.

    Ling Feiyue was cursing Ji Yuan softly to the other three maidens, "He says he wants to maintain a low profile and that he was often the focus of attention when he was with us¡­"

    "Yet he is making such a high profile appearance and making enemies left and right." Little Princess shook her head.

    Shui Xisi giggled. "Ji Yuan is so funny."

    Bai Qianfeng said all of sudden. "Can''t you see that he is trying to shake us off so that he can court Maiden Feng?"

    Ling Feiyue immediately made a small frown as the hard truth dawned upon her. "I should have known¡­"

    Even Little Princess was gasping softly. "He is only trying to get Maiden Feng attention¡­"

    "Did we get tricked by Ji Yuan?" Shui Xisi was also startled.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly. "I don''t think it is so easy to trick him and to get his attention now."

    "Why did we even agree to this in the first ce?" Ling Feiyue sighed softly.

    And so Ji Yuan was now left alone with Feng Minyue.

    It seemed that his n was almost perfect except for one little problem.

    Mo Bei was nowughing as he said to Ji Yuan. "Since we are old acquaintances, why don''t we party together?"

    Ji Yuan could only smile weakly. "Wee, wee¡­"

    Mo Bei turned to look at Feng Minyue as he stroked his beautiful long beard. "How do I address this beautiful maiden here? I''m Mo Bei, Ji Yuan''s senior. Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She''s mine, you know¡­

    Feng Minyue replied quietly. "Feng Minyue."

    "Hahaha. Maiden Feng, I am pleased to know you." Mo Bei was grinning with great delight.

    Feng Minyue ignored him and said to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, hurry and go touch the ck stele. This is an S Rank Trial and you''re just in a nick of time."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan said before he walked slowly to the ck stele.

    As he walked to the ck stele, he could hear hundreds of angry mutterings. "This guy walks too slow! Can''t he hurry up?"

    When he had reached the ck stele, so did Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng but they all pretended not to know each other.

    Ji Yuan touched the ck stele as he muttered. "This is really an S Rank Trial¡­and we have 9,999 cultivators in this vicinity now¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Hey, handsome cultivator! What is your name?" Shui Xisi had suddenly asked him all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; does her acting needs to be so exaggerated? I''ve thought that we must pretend not to know each other and yet she is trying to get acquainted to me? This is not part of the script¡­

    So he replied coolly as he said aloud. "I''m truly the most handsome cultivator here but I''ve no interest in you."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She muttered almost incoherent. "Ji Yuan, you are dead. How dare you¡­"

    Before she could finish, Ji Yuan had waved her goodbye as he said coolly. "Farewell and best of luck."

    As Ji Yuan turned around, he was thinking; they must bepletely impressed by my acting¡­haha¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue folded her arms as she turned to whisper to the other maidens. "Ji Yuan has gone too far. He is taking this too serious. If we don''t teach him a lesson, he may think that we can be bullied."

    "Agreepletely." Little Princess nodded unhappily. "He didn''t even take a second look at me just now¡­"

    Shui Xisi raised her fists. "He is too heartless!"

    Bai Qianfeng said coldly. "Please count me in as well if you want to teach him a lesson. Low profile, my foot!"

    As Ji Yuan returned to rejoin Mo Bei and Feng Minyue, he had a sudden sneeze and wondered if there was a secret plot against him¡­

    But when he caught sight of Feng Minyue again, he wasughing heartily again. "This is merely an S Rank Trial. It won''t be hard, am I right?"

    All of a sudden Mo Bei patted his shoulder and pulled him to one side as he whispered to him. "Hey little brother. I know that you already have Ling Feiyue and my Niece Qianxue as your consorts but no harm trying to expand your circle, am I right? Even though they may be veiled but you can always make friends with them first to unveil them. Maybe they are really beautiful behind their veils, right?"

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes; do you know that one of them happens to be Feiyue?

    Mo Bei then added with a smile. "Even if you don''t want to know them, you should at least introduce them to meter, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Before Ji Yuan could say a word more, there were many excited shouts from the nearby cultivators.

    "Look! The 10,000th cultivator has finally appeared!"

    Indeed a lone cultivator had appeared within the vicinity but he was looking haggard and he seemed to have lost an arm.

    When he saw so many cultivators, he began to speed panicky to everyone and said. "Everyone! I¡­am here to warn you that there is a murderous cultivator from the trial where I was at earlier. He killed everyone in that trial¡­"

    But to his surprise, the nearby cultivators did not return a sympathy look and instead they were all shouting excitingly. "What are you waiting for? Hurry and touch the ck stele! You''re the final one already. Even if you are not interested to participate in the trial, please do us a favor by touching the ck stele!"

    As Ji Yuan and his allies were too far away, they could not hear what this injured cultivator was saying.

    Instead Ji Yuan was thinking how he could bash up Mo Bei without letting Qianxue knows.

    As for Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng, they were so upset by Ji Yuan that they were gritting their teeth and was thinking how they should teach Ji Yuan a lesson.

    Very few cultivators as a matter of fact paid any attention to the injured cultivator because they had seen worse things and this was a trial where mortality was real.

    <o>,m With a resigned look, the injured cultivator quietly walked to the ck stele.</o>

    As soon as he had touched the ck stele, he was gasping. "This is an S Rank Trial¡­Jade Mansion¡­"

    Behind him, the thousands of cultivators broke into excited shouts as everyone was now preparing to storm into the shimmering ck portal which had suddenly lit up¡­

    "The entrance of the Jade Mansion is finally opened!"

    "Finally!"

    The injured cultivator had turned around to say weakly. "Everyone, I am here to give you a warning about a cultivator¡­"

    But his voice was drowned out by everyone and moreover he had a weak internal profound foundation so he could not be heard by the thousands of explosive excited voices.

    The most important thing was of course, no one care about an injured cultivator except that he was thest cultivator that they needed to enter the S Rank Trial.

    Just as he was about to sigh in exasperation, a fabulous looking maiden had shed next to him with a smile.

    She was actually Yu Jingjing.

    With a beautiful smile, she said to him. "You''re a golden celestial so you will get back your arm in no time. Thank you for opening this trial for us. Best of luck!"

    The injured cultivator: ¡­

    Just as he was about to give up in exasperation again, a cultivator with a heroic air had suddenly shed next to him.

    He was actually Ji Yuan and he was saying to him. "You look badly injured. Why don''t you rest outside the trial instead? One less person is one lesspetitor. Haha."

    The injured cultivator: ¡­

    He began to mutter. "Actually I am here to give you all a warning but I think all of you deserve to die."

 Chapter 277 The S Rank Trial (3)

    All the cultivators soon found themselves in a dark limbo after they had entered into the shimmering ck portal.

    Ji Yuan was naturally one of them but he could not see the others.

    "Where am I?" He thought.

    All of a sudden he could hear a gentle echo from the surrounding space. "Wee to the Jade Mansion."

    Ji Yuanughed excitingly. "So this is an S Rank Trial and the name of this trial is the Jade Mansion. What a beautiful name."

    The gentle echo giggled softly. "The original name of this trial is the ughter Mansion but I''m afraid it may put off the cultivators so I call it the Jade Mansion instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden the smiles on his face had vanished. "Is this some kind of a joke?"

    The gentle echo continued to giggle. "In this trial, you have 30 days toplete it and you will be assigned one of the elements of Fire, Water, Earth and Air to be your faction¡­"

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he had heard it; it was because it would mean that Feng Minyue would also be randomly assigned an element and she may not be in the same faction as him¡­

    "The rules for the Jade Mansion is simple enough. Every day, you will have a chance topete against a champion of the other factions. If you are able to win by forcing your opponent to concede or killing them, you will gain a little wing on your forehand. If you are able to gain ten little wings by the end of 30 days then you will be able toplete the trial and gain your reward." The gentle echo continued.

    "But beware, after the fifth wing is gained, if you were to lose a single match, you will lose three of your little wings. In order to make things a little interesting, the winner will be able to obtain all of their opponents'' possessions including their divine swords if any. Literally gaining all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was stunned; this was literally a ughter trial where the winner takes all¡­

    He had a very bad feeling about this and he was now anxious for his women¡­

    "If I know that this will be a ughter trial and that we are all going to fight against one another here,  I would never have entered here¡­"

    His thoughts were interrupted by the gentle echo again. "You belong to the Fire Faction. In a little while time, you will be taken to the Jade Mansion. Best of luck."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately. "Can I quit the trial?"

    "Unfortunately no." The trial voice answered him gently before a shimmering bright light overwhelmed him.

    When he had opened his eyes again, he saw that he was standing with hundreds of cultivators in arge courtyard and more cultivators were arriving every now and then.

    "Ji Yuan, you''re also here?"

    Ji Yuan looked up and was startled to see Feng Minyue again.

    He smiled bitterly. "I guess that we are in the Jade Mansion now and that we belong to the Fire Faction."

    Feng Minyue nodded solemnly. "This is a most dangerous trial."

    Ji Yuan sighed. "Let''s hope that the others are in the same faction as us too."

    Feng Minyue returned a light nod but after waiting for a while, Ji Yuan''s wait seemed to be in vain¡­

    "Ji Yuan, it is you? Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan returned a soft frown when he recognized the voice of Mo Bei. "It is you."

    Mo Beiughed. "Of course it is me. Are you expecting someone?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly before he turned to say to Xiang Li in his soul sea. "Xiang Li, your magic did not work this time."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li was also sighing miserably, "I don''t sense them in this group¡­"

    "Hmph! It is you!" A cold voice had suddenly said behind Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan turned slowly around to see a fabulous maiden with a zither in her arms; she was Yu Jingjing and she looked really unhappy to see Ji Yuan.

    "I hope that you don''t drag our faction down with your disappointing battle results." She added coldly.

    Ji Yuan grinned back. "Don''t worry, I am a good fighter¡­"

    "With your poor look, are you sure?" Yu Jingjing smiled coldly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed. "Wealth has nothing to do with being a good fighter. You are the most ignorant maiden that I''ve ever met."

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "Is it? We shall see about it then."

    Xiang Li muttered to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, why are you so unfriendly to her? She looks nice."

    Ji Yuan answered solemnly, "Xiang Li, you''re too young. Some people may have the face of an angel but the heart of the devil. Can''t you tell from our exchanges that she isn''t a good maiden?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "She looks good because she is beautiful and has big boobs too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered helplessly. "We ought to sit down to have a word or two on what is a good maiden¡­"

    A gentle voice began to echo from the Jade Mansion in front of all the cultivators. "Wee to the Jade Mansion¡­"

    "First of all, I am going to tell you the rules of this trial. This trial willst for 30 days and you can participate daily in any of thepetition against the other factions¡­"

    Ji Yuan hummed softly. "I''m going to sleep for the next 30 days¡­"

    "You may choose to forfeit your daily participation but you have to do it at least once every three days or else all your belongings will be forfeited¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "There are altogether 9 levels to the Jade Mansion and you can advance to a new level only after obtaining a mini wing on your forehand. After obtaining the 10th mini wing, you will be able toplete the trial¡­"

    "In the Jade Mansion, there are profound treasures that you can purchase as you go higher up the level, naturally with high grade spirit stones of course. In additional, you can also gain ughter points for your victories and you can also use this to purchase for your profound treasures. Your final reward for this trial will be based on your total ughter point should you be able toplete the final trial."

    "Please enter the Jade Mansion and to pick your rooms. There are different sses to the rooms of course and if you can afford it, your rate of recovery will naturally be superior to the lower sses rooms."

    Ji Yuan turned to Feng Minyue and Mo Bei with a bitter smile. "Why is that I am feeling so poor all of a sudden?"

    Mo Beiughed. "Don''t tell me that you have no spirit stones?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he said silently; precisely¡­

    Yu Jingjing had obviously overheard Mo Bei talking to Ji Yuan and as she walked past Ji Yuan, she said with great sarcasm. "Humph! Just another peasant cultivator!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 278 The Jade Mansion (1)

    Ji Yuan, Mo Bei and Feng Minyue now followed the rest of the cultivators into the Jade Mansion.

    Ji Yuan had never seen a courtyard that was sorge before that it could amodate the thousands of cultivators and yet they could still make their wayfortably into the Jade Mansion.

    He turned to ask Mo Bei, "Senior, do you know what this trial is all about other than defeating the other opponent? I''m a little clueless. Since I''m new, maybe¡­"

    Mo Beiughed as he stroked his beard, "You little rascal. I know your little tricks. Are you trying to borrow spirit stones from me under the guise of guidance?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he said silently; damn¡­this wily old fox¡­

    "Ji Yuan, do you need help?" Feng Minyue asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed. "Oh no, I am never short of spirit stones. I was just thinking of asking Senior Mo here for some advice. Haha."

    Feng Minyue rolled her eyes before saying quietly. "Alright but if you do need any help, don''t be shy to ask me."

    "I will be shy? Never! Haha." Ji Yuanughed aloud as he demonstrated his manly vibes.

    But secretly he was smiling bitterly; Ji Yuan, one of these days you will be screwed by your pride¡­

    As they entered the main hall of the Jade Mansion, they were immediately greeted by thousands of translucent serving maids that were floating to every one of them to offer their greetings.

    A translucent serving maid was smiling to Ji Yuan. "Handsome, let me attend to you and to better exin to you the rules of the Jade Mansion."

    Ji Yuanughed. "This ce looks so hospitable and just like a hotel. Is there anything that I should know?"

    The translucent serving maid smiled angelically, "First of all, your possessions are scanned when you first enter into the Jade Mansion. It is to prevent you from cheating by passing your possessions to someone that you know. When you lost a match, you will lose everything."

    JI Yuan smiled weakly. "Thank you for reminding me on this."

    Then the translucent serving maiden bowed as they approached the counter where an old translucent attendant could be seen greeting them with a smile. "There are four sses of rooms here. The poor quarter is absolutely free of charge and is the lowest ss of the four. The noble room is the third ss and you will recover twice your daily recovery but it will cost you 100 high grade spirit stones daily¡­"

    "100 high grade spirit stones daily?!" Ji Yuan was appalled as he gasped. "Why don''t you go and rob instead?"

    Many of the cultivators had heard Ji Yuan and they had all turned around to mock at Ji Yuan. "It seems that he is a poor cultivator."

    Yu Jingjing who was nearbyughed softly. "I did say that he is a poor peasant."

    Even Mo Bei and Feng Minyue were slightly embarrassed by Ji Yuan sudden appalling shout.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly to the old translucent attendant. "Please continue."

    The old translucent attendant grinned. "The royal room is the second ss here and you will recover four times your daily recovery. It will cost you 1000 high grade spirit stones daily."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    That would be 30,000 high grade spirit stones for a 30 day stay¡­

    This time Ji Yuan had restrained from eximing aloud his appalling shock of hearing the cost of staying in a royal room.

    Instead he muttered. "There is still one more ss of room, am I right?"

    The old translucent attendant nodded with a grin. "That is the empyrean ss room. In this room, you''ll be able to recover six times your daily recovery. It will cost you 10,000 high grade spirit stones. So which room do you want to take?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin to ponder; this is a fight of attrition. Whoever has the most recovery and has the better condition will stand a higher chance to win. This is especially so when they are at the higher levels.  Every bit of recovery counts.

    So this was actually a no brainer decision.

    And so Ji Yuan dered loudly. "I will take the poor quarter."

    When he had made his derations, many of the cultivators wereughing and mocking at him. "He is really a poor cultivator¡­"

    Yu Jingjing covered her mouth to giggle. "A poor peasant indeed."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The translucent old attendant asked. "And for how many days?"

    Ji Yuan replied solemnly. "30 days since it is free of charge anyway."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw that his serving maid had turned into an old woman and he was stunned. "What the hell is this?"

    At the same time he saw that Mo Bei''s serving maid had turned into a gorgeous maiden with a full buxom figure just because he had chosen the empyrean ss room for 30 days.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was speechless by what he was seeing and Mo Bei was delighted by what he was seeing.

    Feng Minyue was overheard saying. "I will try the noble ss room for a day then."

    Yu Jingjing was overheard saying. "I''ll have the royal ss room for the next 7 days¡­"

    In the hall, the cultivators were overheard debating the strategy of choosing the rooms.

    "It is best that we choose the best room that we can afford for the next 30 days or else we would lose all our spirit stones once we lose our fight¡­"

    "On the other hand if we win during the fight, we can upgrade our rooms immediately¡­"

    "So what strategy should we deploy?"

    "We will lose our precious swords and even our divine swords if we were to lose¡­"

    "I wonder which of the factions have the most number of experts¡­"

    There was a sudden echo from the trial spirit. "Now that all of you have picked your rooms, you may register for your first fight at the battle counter in front of you. Alternatively, you may choose to wait for three days before you will be forced to battle an opponent from the other factions. Best of luck to all the geniuses of the heavens."

    Mo Bei turned to Ji Yuan to ask him. "So what do you think?"

    Ji Yuan said quietly. "Unless we can be sure that we are able to win ten times in a row then we can only battle every three days. This is the catch of this trial."

    Feng Minyue nodded. "The more battles that we fight, the higher risk that we''re taking and we may meet an opponent that may be our nemesis to our profound arts."

    "That is why I''ve chosen the empyrean ss room for 30 days so that I can always maintain my tip-top condition." Mo Beiughed aloud.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said sarcastically. "Not unless you get kill mid-way."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "You know Brother Ji Yuan¡­" Mo Bei suddenly chuckled. "I can easily rece my divine sword when I am back to the Mo n but you may get to lose your immortal-step divine sword¡­"

    "It isn''t an immortal-step divine sword anymore but a saint-step divine sword now." Ji Yuan interrupted him with a grin.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei was suddenly coughing softly. "What?! You''ve got a saintly divine sword? Whoever is your opponent will only be d¡­"

    "You sound as if I will surely lose." Ji Yuan interrupted him.

    Feng Minyue pleaded quietly. "We''re all allies here, am I right? The two of you sound like you''re fighting with each other. Why don''t we sit down quietly and to think of a strategy to ovee this trial? I really got a bad feeling about this trial. Something is off here but I can''t ce my finger in it."

    Ji Yuan stared at the old serving maiden that was smiling at him before he nodded awkwardly. "You''re right. It is really off here¡­"

    Mo Bei asked in a low voice. "So what is the n?"

    Ji Yuan turned to Mo Bei with a bitter smile. "You''re supposed to be the senior here and yet you''re asking us? Aren''t you shameless."

    Mo Beiughed as he looked at Feng Minyue. "Never too shameless and too old¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Feng Minyue ignored Mo Bei and asked Ji Yuan, "Do you have a n?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Of course I''ve a n. I always have a n."

    "What is it?" Feng Minyue and Mo Bei asked curiously at the same time.

    Ji Yuan pointed at Mo Bei before he grinned. "Why don''t we ask our senior here to fight the first battle while we observe quietly as we make our future ns?"

    Mo Bei looked appalled as he asked. "Why me? Just because I''m  a senior?"

    "Because you''ve the empyrean ss room for the next 30 days and you''ve nothing to lose." Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue said coldly at the same time.

    Feng Minyue was startled that she had actually said the same thing as Ji Yuan and she was suddenly flushing.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly. "Haha. Great minds think alike¡­"

 Chapter 279 The Jade Mansion (2)

    It was not Mo Bei but Ji Yuan that had registered himself for the battle arena.

    Ji Yuan was not a person that would shy away from a fight especially if there was a beautiful maiden like Feng Minyue that was nearby.

    Therefore he had registered himself at the battle counter where a beautiful translucent attendant gave him a tally. "Just go through this portal and you will be in the first level battle arena. A random opponent will be picked from among the factions to be your opponent."

    Feng Minyue asked. "Can I watch him from the battle arena?"

    The beautiful attendant answered. "Tickets will be 100 high grade spirit stones for entire day. Do you want to pay for the tickets?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he heard that it would cost 100 high grade spirit stones for the ticket; this is aplete rip off¡­

    "Please give me a ticket." Feng Minyue said quietly.

    Mo Beiughed. "Please give me a ticket as well."

    A sweet voice said from behind. "I want a ticket as well."

    Ji Yuan turned around as he frowned; it was because he had recognized the voice of Yu Jingjing.

    He could not resist frowning with displeasure. "What is there to watch?"

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "I''m not watching you. What is there to watch about you? I''m watching my opponents from the other factions so that I can better prepare myself for my own fight."

    Then with a cold smile, she added. "I''m a middle-tier saintess. You ought to address me as Saintess Yu respectfully. Even though we may be in the same faction but don''t me me for being nasty with you for offending me."

    "And I''m a great saint." Ji Yuan grinned. "Great Saint Ji Yuan."

    Yu Jingjing chuckled. "You would be a great saint? Please don''t make meugh. With your poor look, you can''t even be a saint. Does it hurt your manly ego that I am a middle-tier saintess and so you''re trying to im to be an upper tier saint so that you can be a tier higher than me? It is no wonder that you have such a poorpany as well."

    Mo Bei blinked his eyes as he said. "Actually, I''m also a great saint and I''m not poor. I''ve booked the empyrean ss room¡­"

    "You''re nothing but a rich wastrel." Yu Jingjing hummed coldly as she exchanged her high grade spirit stones for a battle ticket.

    Then she turned to look at Feng Minyue. "Don''t tell me that you''re also a great saintess?"

    But Feng Minyue averted her eyes and ignored her.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "She is indeed a great saintess¡­"

    But Yu Jingjing had already entered through to the portal to the arena.

    Ji Yuan took a look at Mo Bei as heughed. "Rich wastrel."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    The translucent beautiful attendant said to Ji Yuan. "Your battle starts soon. You''re next."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "So soon?"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan found himself in a waiting room where he could view the fight in the battle arena as well.

    He was assigned a battle ID number 44,444.

    Upon receiving the battle ID tag, he was frowning. "This sounds like Die, Die, Die, Die and Die."

    In the waiting room there were already a few dozen cultivators inside and they were all from the Fire Faction.

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin; it seems that we are unable to interact with the cultivators from the other factions. So how am I going to talk to Feiyue, Little Princess, Qianfeng and Sisi?

    And are we going to be opponents?

    He was sighing miserably and was even anxious for them. It was because he could tell that there were many geniuses of the Celestial Realm in this ce; many of them had a lofty look and were extremely sure of themselves.

    And many of them were battle veterans with hundreds of years of hardcore battle experience against the other cultivators.<sub> </sub>

    Usually in a one to one fight, the unorthodox cultivators usually have an edge over the orthodox cultivators when they are at the same cultivation realm. This was due to their more brutal environment.

    The current battle was a cultivator from the Water Faction against a cultivator from the Earth Faction.

    Ji Yuan recognized the cultivator from the Water Faction; he was Chu Ren the Charming Cultivator. In under a hundred moves, he hadpletely disabled his opponent and had forced him to surrender.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw that Chu Ren did not even disy his sword and he knew that he was an expert fighter.

    From his moves, Ji Yuan knew that this Chu Ren was not even using his full strength yet.

    "44,444 vs. 1464!" There was a call for Ji Yuan.

    Before Ji Yuan could react, he found himself inside the battle arena.

    His opponent was anky but old cultivator and he was smirking coldly. "Young man, I''ll advise you to concede your match and I will be merciful toward you. I am Ao Hao, one of the three Evil Heretics of the Devil Isle and my reputation is nasty¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was not paying attention to him because his sharp eyes soon caught sight of Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi among the spector stands that were around him.

    Ling Feiyue was sitting in the Water Faction spector area.

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were in the Earth spector area.

    And Shui Xisi was in the Air spector area.

    It appeared that they were all here to scout for useful tips ahead of their own battles.

    Their eyes immediately lit up excitingly when they saw Ji Yuan and they had forgotten they were supposed to give Ji Yuan the cold treatment that he deserved.

    Locating Ji Yuan and knowing that he was in the Fire Faction ddened and calmed their confusing hearts immediately.

    At the same time Feng Minyue was also looking intently at Ji Yuan from the Fire Faction stands.

    "Hey young man! Are you even listening?" Ao Hao growled as he unsheathed his earth-step divine sword and there was hint of pride in his eyes. "I know you. You''re that newly arrived cultivator. I heard that you''re a great hero in the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Is it because you''re a beardless cultivator and that is why they call you a great hero for daring to walk around without a beard."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You talk too much." Ji Yuan frowned unhappily.

    Ao Hao smiled coldly. "My mouth is on my face and I can do whatever I want with my mouth. That is none of your business. So where is your weapon? Or are you too scare that you''ve forgotten to take out your weapon? Or you are afraid of my divine sword?"

    He had an earth-step divine sword. In the Celestial Realm, it is considered to be a top cultivation advantage!

    "I don''t need a sword to defeat you." Ji Yuan said coldly.

    Ao Haoughed coldly as he began to swing his sword. "What bold words. Then don''t me me for not showing you any mercy¡­"

    But before he could finish speaking, Ji Yuan had shed next to him and had raised his fingers into a sword stance as he disyed several sword energies bursts to implode on Ao Hao''s face.

    Before Ao Hao could even react, Ji Yuan had seized his divine sword and was pointing it at his throat. "You really talk too much. If you don''t concede then I will just have to push forward with my advantage."

    Ao Hao was stunned; he had never seen anyone moved so fast before.

    He rolled his eyes as he thought; he looked like a gullible cultivator. Let me trick him using words and I can turn my disadvantage to my advantage. In a fight, everything is a fair game¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly shed with the divine sword that was in his left hand and had suddenly pierced Ao Hao''s throat, giving him a clean death.

    "Even though I don''t like to kill needlessly but you have a killing malevolent air around you that reeked of your reckless killing. The number of innocent souls in your hands must be many."

    After Ji Yuan had killed Ao Hao, he saw that there was a mini-wing that had suddenly appeared on his forehand. At the same time Ao Hao possessions were transferred to him and he counted 3000 high grade spirit stones. There were also several minor profound artefacts and pills as well but Ji Yuan did not take particr notice on these.

    Ji Yuan grinned silently; now I''m rich.

    As he left the battle arena, he had a bewildered look. This Ao Hao was only a golden supremacy judging from his profound animus that was revealed by his divine sword earlier and he had dared to look down on a great saint?

    Surely he must be courting his own death.

    Correction; he is dead already.

    As Ji Yuan left the battle arena, many of the cultivators were secretly taking note of Ji Yuan''s reflexes and attack patterns; when it is time for them to fight Ji Yuan then they will be ready to counter his moves and not be surprised by him.

 Chapter 280 The Jade Mansion (3)

    Ji Yuan did not exactly walk out of the battle arena. He was teleported out of the battle arena instead.

    As soon as he was back to the waiting hall, his old translucent guide began to appear next to him to say in a croaked voice. "You can now ess the First Wing Cultivation Hall where you can purchase cultivation resources beyond your wildest dreams. As this is your first victory, you have also gained 3 ughter points¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately shed a thousand high grade spirit stones and said bitterly. "I''m upgrading to the noble room for the next 10 days. For the next 10 days, I don''t wish to see you."

    The translucent old guide smiled angelically before she transformed into a beautiful serving maid that Ji Yuan had seen previously. "A wise choice instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Honorable guest, do you want to visit the First Wing Cultivation Hall first?" The serving maid asked with a grin.

    Ji Yuan said. "No hurry. I want to watch the fights first."

    "That will be a hundred high spirit stones for the ticket. I can help you to purchase the ticket for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted. "Say. You''re all the same person am I right? I mean, you''re the same spirit entity, am I right? Because all your mannerism is the same."

    The serving maiden just smiled and said nothing.

    "You know, I''ve heard that it is more fun trying to be involved in a trial than merely observing the others." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Xiang Li was nodding inside his soul sea as she agreed wholeheartedly. "That''s right! It is more fun being involved in the trial than merely an observer."

    That was what she had been telling Ji Yuan.

    The serving maiden: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed. "You don''t have to tell me anything but I know for sure. I''ve a spirit entity as well. She is also the master of a trial."

    "A trial spirit can never leave their trial." The serving maiden answered coldly all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "Not my Xiang Li. She is a special spirit entity. Do you want to meet her?"

    The serving maiden answered coldly. "No. Come with me to the spector stand."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulder before he asked. "We''re not teleporting there instantly?"

    The serving maiden stared coldly at him before saying. "It is only for thepetitors. You''re outside the warping stations now."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Haha. Is that so? My legs are a little weak after my fight. Can you assist me a little?"

    But the translucent serving maidenpletely ignored Ji Yuan''s request and had floated away.

    Ji Yuan could do nothing but followed her; he was actually eager to witness the fights that were between the cultivators. This was because he was not going to let such a great opportunity to learn about the various profound arts in the Celestial Realm to be missed by any chance.

    With an excited look, he was already following eagerly behind the more pleasant looking serving maid that was guiding himpared to the old hag that he had earlier.

    -

    -

    -

    Soon Ji Yuan was back in the battle arena but to his utter surprise, he saw only a few dozen cultivators only and there were no sight of his beloveds in the spector stand.

    What is going on?

    Also, the stands are looking a little different now.

    The serving maiden turned around with a grin. "You''ve a wing now so naturally you can only view the fight that is on the second level. If you wish to view a lower level fight, that will be an additional 100 high grade spirit stones. But you got to tell me which level that you will like to watch first because there will be no refunds."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why? You''ve friends?" The serving maiden smiled. "The battle arena is big enough to hold a hundred fights simultaneously. You will see them soon enough, provided that they win their fight."

    Just as Ji Yuan was heaving soft sighs of resignation, he spotted Yu Jingjing emerging in the battle arena. It seemed that she had decided to go for her second fight immediately in order to seize whatever advantage that she had for the first few rounds; it was because the first few fights may have weaker opponents as everyone was still exploring the trials.

    Then Ji Yuan had a look of amusement when he saw her opponent; it was Tang Yumen the cultivator that was carrying a pink rabbit in his arm outside the trial earlier and that he was now representing the Air Faction.

    Ji Yuan frowned almost immediately as he muttered, "Aren''t they friends? I wonder how they are going to rig the fight¡­"

    Yu Jingjing smiled angelically as she disyed her zither. "I believe that we''ve met earlier. My musical instrument is a heaven-step treasure and I am saintess."

    Tang Yumen smiled as he disyed his heaven-step divine sword. "What a coincidence. I am also a saint¡­"

    Yu Jingjing was gasping softly because he had just disyed the profound animus of a great saint through his divine sword¡­

    But she quicklyposed herself as she said coolly. "I''ve been known to defeat great saints in the past."

    But she neglected to mention that she had mostly only won 1 out of every 20 fights and that was a friendly fight with her elders.

    The twobatants quickly got into their attacking positions and they were fighting almost immediately with their profound arts that were shaking the battle arena.<sub> </sub>

    Luckily there seemed to be an invisible shield that prevented their profound arts from straying into the other fighters that were also having their duels in the battle arena.

    Actually Ji Yuan had no interest in Yu Jingjing''s rigged fight but she was the most enticing maiden in the battle arena and she really had really lovely legs under her short skirt so he found himself looking at her fight instead.

    Yu Jingjing was swift and her profound arts were like the winds, slicing through the air as she raised her zither to disy booming shockwaves at her opponent.

    But this Tang Yumen was even faster and Ji Yuan was astonished that he could move in a blink of an eye instantaneous, hence he could avoid Yu Jingjing''s attacks all the time and he even had several opportunities to attack Yu Jingjing.

    However Yu Jingjing seemed to have anticipated his moves and she quickly moved away, maintaining a social distancing so that she would not lose her advantage.

    This was a battle between saints and Ji Yuan estimated that this fight would not be over so quickly. They seemed almost evenly matched and it would at least 500 moves before the victor would be more pronounced; whoever had the most profound strength and had also taken the least hits would probably emerge as the final victor.

    However since they probably know each other, it may somewhat end up as a draw¡­

    So Ji Yuan asked the serving maid. "Is there a draw for thepetition?"

    The beautiful serving maid nodded. "There is. They have half a watch (an hour) to determine the winner or else the fight will be a draw."

    This immediately confirmed Ji Yuan''s suspicions.

    "Is there any penalties in a draw?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The beautiful serving maid grinned back. "You will lose all your ughter points if it is a draw and one ughter point for each level of the tournament."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What the hell¡­"

    But the beautiful serving maid interrupted with a cold smile. "You should not be surprised. You should have asked for the rules before thepetition begins. Why? You''ve friends here that you do not want to fight?"

    <o>,m Ji Yuan: ¡­</o>

    The beautiful serving maid returned a sudden smile. "Why don''t you tell me who your friends are? Maybe I can even help you to pass a message or two?"

    "Oh?" Ji Yuanughed all of a sudden before he turned solemn. "No thanks!"

    The beautiful serving maid: ¡­

    Xiang Li began to ask Ji Yuan curiously. "Big Brother, why did you reject her offer to help you?"

    Ji Yuan replied solemnly. "Xiang Li, if you are the trial spirit, will you help the cultivators or not?"

    Xiang Li began to ponder before she giggled. "I will offer to help but I won''t really try to help¡­"

    "That is because you just want to know who their friends are so that you can screw them in the trial, am I right?" Ji Yuan asked.

    Xiang Li put her face into her palms, "Big Brother, you know me so well!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. "I''m not talking about you. I am talking about this trial spirit. Therefore we mustn''t trust her and I hope that the others won''t identally slip that they know me during the trial."

    All of a sudden he began to sigh with great miserably as he could imagine Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi shouting excitingly at the spector stand. "Look! It is Ji Yuan our Lord! I hope that Ji Yuan will be able to win!"

    Xiang Li gasped as she realized the truth about the trial. "Then these serving attendants are all watchers. Big Brother, are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Trust me. I won''t be wrong. This is a trial and you cannot trust the deceiving rules of the trial in a blind manner."

    Xiang Li nodded with great adoration. "Big Brother can''t be wrong! I trust Big Brother 100%. So is there anything that I should know as well?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he pointed at the fight between Yu Jingjing and Tang Yumen. "For example, this fight will be a draw. Losing 3 ughter points isn''t a big deal. The two of them are obviously in a gang¡­"

    All of a sudden, Tang Yumen had taken out a secret mini-crossbow from under his sleeve and three powerful darts had pierced through to Yu Jingjing''s body!

    Before Yu Jingjing could react, Tang Yumen had struck her with another blow with his ws which had turned purple.

    Venom!

    This Tang Yumen was a venom expert too!

    Yu Jingjing stumbled to the ground as her heaving bosoms were exposed by Tang Yumen''s ws.

    Weakened by the poisons and under the further strong attacks of Tang Yumen, Yu Jingjing''s top was ripped apart by Tang Yumen''s lecherous ws.

    Yu Jingjing burst into tears as she cried out tearfully. "Enough! I concede!"

    Tang Yumenughed aloud. "I didn''t have enough from you yet. This ends a little too soon."

    Yu Jingjing''s zither and the valuable contents of her spatial ring were forcefully removed from her and transferred to Tang Yumen.

    Ji Yuan was shocked by the oue of the battle and the brutal treatment that was received by Yu Jingjing.

    Even Xiang Li was shocked as she stammered to Ji Yuan. "Big Brother, aren''t they friends?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he recalled the tearful and humiliating look that was on Yu Jingjing just before she was teleported away.

 Chapter 281 The Jade Mansion (4)

    Ji Yuan had a stupefied look as he left the spector stand.

    He soon caught up with Yu Jingjing who had changed into a new bodice and robe.

    She was still teary and when she saw Ji Yuan, she began to say coldly. "Are you here to mock me? If you are then you should be very happy now."

    Just as she was about to dash past, Ji Yuan had taken out the earth-step divine sword that he had just looted and said coolly. "This may not be able to rece your heaven-step zither but at least this is still an earth-step divine sword. You are going to need this for your uing battle. As long as I am undefeated, this divine sword won''t disappear from your hands since I am the original owner."

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "So are you taking pity on me? Or when I have reached out my hands to take it, you will humiliate me by taking it back. Or you are only offering to me because you are lusting after my body?"

    Ji Yuan said quietly. "None of the above. I''m offering this divine sword to you because I was too rude to you earlier. Please ept my apologies."

    When he had said that, he had simply thrust the earth-step divine sword into the flooring as though it was dirt in his eyes and had walked away.

    Yu Jingjing was startled as she stared at the divine sword that was in front of her while muttering. "Did he just throw a divine sword away just like that? Isn''t he just a poor peasant? Am I wrong about him or is he just trying to show off in front of me?"

    -

    -

    -

    After Ji Yuan had left Yu Jingjing to her ownpany, he visited the First Wing Cultivation Hall where his guide told him was the ce to purchase for rare cultivation resources.

    When he had arrived there, there were already quite a number of cultivators from the Fire Faction on the first floor.

    There was a second floor but the ess was sealed for him.

    He turned to ask his beautiful guide. "I can''t see the other cultivators from the other factions here?"

    The beautiful serving maid aka the guide smiled. "No, you can''t."

    Ji Yuan began to frown immediately. "Why is it so?"

    The beautiful serving maid smiled. "So you''re missing your friends who are in the other factions?"

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan immediately said weakly. "I am just being curious."

    The beautiful serving maid smiled. "We can''t have you checking on what your rivals are buying for their cultivation resources, am I right? Also, we can''t have any groups ambushing their rivals as well. This won''t be fair, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan returned a weak smile. "So I see."

    Then he turned his attention to look at the numerous shops at the First Wing Cultivation Hall and was stunned by how expensive things were.

    He pointed at a third rank profound pill and muttered. "This is only a third rank profound recovery pill but it cost five hundred high grade spirit points and one ughter point?!"

    The beautiful maid smiled wryly, "You have no idea how precious recovery pills are in the trial. It will mean the difference between life and death."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered. "Well, I wonder how much does a divine sword cost here? You do have one here, am I right?"

    The beautiful maiden smiled, "Naturally we have it here. It will cost you 1 million high grade spirit stones and 300 ughter points for a half-step divine sword."

    Ji Yuan smiled most bitterly. "Why don''t you rob instead?"

    He took a quick look around and was appalled at the outrageous prices that were offered for the cultivation resources.

    There was really nothing he could do with his remaining 2000 high grade spirit stones so he had decided to call it a day.

    A short whileter, he had walked into the main hall of the Fire Fraction and he was followed closely behind by his personal serving maid.

    Hundreds of cultivators could be seen gathering in this ce already.

    As he approached the inner hall of the main hall, he was quite startled that there was a disy board that detailed their battle results.

    Fire Faction;

    Victories: 250, Defeats: 705, Deaths: 135

    He began to rub his chin as he muttered. "Not bad¡­"

    But his jaws almost dropped when he saw the results of the other three Factions.

    Air Faction;

    Victories: 660, Defeats: 400, Deaths: 25

    Earth Faction;

    Victories: 424, Defeats: 240, Deaths: 77

    Water Faction;

    Victories: 312, Defeats: 301, Deaths: 53

    Ji Yuan could not believe his eyes when he saw that his side had the most number of defeats and deaths as well as the least number of victories.

    "What the hell?! I am in the losing faction¡­"

    And the number of defeats and deaths on the Fire Faction appeared to be increasing every minute.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He soon spotted Feng Minyue and Mo Bei walking into the hall together.

    Mo Bei was frowning as he proudly showed him his forearm. "Little Brother, where have you been? Did you see my fight? I''ve won. So have Maiden Feng!"<sub> </sub>

    Feng Minyue nodded lightly. "My opponent is a little weak though."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he pointed at the battle board. "I guess that we''re the lucky ones."

    Mo Bei''s jaws almost dropped. "It seems that our side is the worst performer."

    "Indeed." Ji Yuan echoed softly.

    Then he turned to them to say. "Something is amiss for this trial here and we ought not to trust the guides that are given to assist us."

    At which Ji Yuan''s beautiful serving maid replied with a smile. "You can absolutely trust us to safeguard your confidentiality."

    Mo Bei smiled with great delight as he looked at his empyrean beauty guide. "Naturally, naturally. I''veplete trust in my guide."

    Ji Yuan, Feng Minyue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly asked. "It seems that this hall is unusually crowded?"

    Feng Minyue exined. "The battle arena is only opened for half a day today for us to get used to the Jade Mansion. It will be a full day tomorrow though. Maybe that is why there are so many cultivators here. We thought that we may find you here as well."

    Ji Yuanughed. "I was just wandering around. I''ve just been to the First Wing Cultivation Hall¡­"

    Then he added with a weak smile as he spotted several cultivators with two pair of wings on their forehands. "It seems that we have some strong cultivators here that already have a two pair of wings."

    Feng Minyue nodded quietly as she took a quick look around. "We''ve even seen one with three pair of wings."

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Why are they so eager to rise to the top in a single day? Are they in a rush to reincarnate?"

    Mo Bei asked curiously to his empyrean beauty. "I wonder what the highest progress is right now? What is the most number of wings now?"

    His empyrean beauty returned a beautiful smile, "It is currently the fourth now. There is a board here that will show the progression of the levels that are currently unlocked. Why don''t I show it to you?"

    And so Mo Bei, Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue followed the guide for a short walk around the corner where there were hundreds of cultivators that had already gathered and everyone was shaking their heads as they gossiped loudly.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly when he saw the status of the board;

    Fire Faction; Highest level unlock: 3

    Water Faction; Highest level unlock: 4

    Air Faction; Highest level unlock: 5

    Earth Faction; Highest level unlock: 5

    Ji Yuan was startled that there were actually cultivators from the Air and Earth Faction that had reached the fifth level.

    He remembered that Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng are in the Earth Faction while Sisi is in the Air Faction.

    He so happened to remember as well that Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Sisi are all impatient cultivators that are more likely to go up as high as possible because they have a disdain for most other cultivators.

    Did they know that they are heading for disaster by doing so?

    They need my good brains to help them to ovee this trial¡­

    "Ji Yuan, what are you thinking?" Feng Minyue asked curiously when she saw that he was rubbing his chin in deep thoughts.

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I''m beginning to think that this trial is a trap."

    Mo Beiughed. "How can this be a trap? I say we should fight hard to improve our trial ranking within our own faction. In this way, we can lift our heads high and everyone will regard us as heroes."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly. "Of course this is a trap. It is because I don''t know which factions to support now."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Are you going to be a traitor to our Fire Faction?" He gasped loudly.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly. "Of course not¡­"

    But all of a sudden, many of the cultivators were surrounding Ji Yuan with an angry look after they had overheard Mo Bei sudden gasp.

    "No wonder we have such dismaying result on our side¡­"

    "So we have a traitor on our side¡­"

    "He isn''t fighting hard at all¡­"

    "Isn''t this cultivator the so call great hero of the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    "The cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity cannot be trusted, especially the beardless one¡­"

    "Maybe those cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity are in cahoots with him to sell us out¡­"

    "Lynch him!"

    "Kill this traitor!"

    "Bang him!"

    Ji Yuan took several steps back as the number of cultivators had suddenly increased to several hundreds and more cultivators from the other side of the hall were alsoing to take a look.

    He mustered his profound strength to shout weakly. "Hahaha. Now that I''ve got everyone''s attention, shall we have our first battle strategy on how to ovee this trial together? That is because I''ve found a loophole for us all to ovee this trial!"

    Everyone: ???

    "A loophole?"

    "For us all to ovee this trial?"

 Chapter 282 The Jade Mansion (5)

    Ji Yuan said courageously to the hundreds of cultivators that were now surrounding him. "Don''t you want to ovee this trial? I''ve found the loophole in this trial that we can exploit."

    Immediately all the cultivators began to calm down a little.

    "You''ve better not lie to us!"

    "If you can''t give us a reasonable exnation then don''t me us for being nasty with you."

    "What is it?"

    "This has better to be good¡­"

    "Why should we believe you?"

    "Come on, convince us then!"

    Ji Yuan turned to face everyone with a confident look before he calmly said, "We are now the weakest faction. If we don''t unite against our adversaries, soon our side will be doomed¡­"

    "Isn''t this crap? We already know this part. Go straight to the point!" Many of the cultivators were shouting angrily.

    Ji Yuan returned a weak smile before he said. "We may be the worst faction now but this is only the first day. I''ve found a loophole that can turn our disadvantage to our advantage."

    "Hahaha¡­"

    "What is it?"

    "Please don''t talk big!"

    "You have better not be lying to us all¡­"

    Ji Yuan made a dramatic cough before he pointed at the battle board. "Look! The cultivators from our group are only at the 3rd level but the Air and Earth Faction are all at the 5th level. Do you all know what this means?"

    He paused to add with a broad smile. "We have 29 more days toplete the trial. In the meantime, why don''t we let the Air and Earth Faction fight it out?"

    Everyone: ???

    "You still don''t get it, am I right?" Ji Yuanughed aloud. "I guess that I''m the only genius in our faction. We will purposely be at the lowest level while we let the other three factions fight it out with their top cultivators. When all the top cultivators are eliminated then we will have an easier time to the very top. As for the top cultivators, we will let them gather the 10 trial wings and¡­"

    Mo Bei was gasping aloud as he pped his fist. "And then we don''t even have to face any of the top cultivators! What a brilliant n this is!"

    The hundreds of cultivators around Ji Yuan were all gasping with admiration.

    "This may just work!"

    "Why didn''t we think of this earlier?"

    "We can turn our disadvantage to our advantage!"

    "This Ji Yuan did not lie to us at all¡­"

    "He must be a genius for thinking of this¡­"

    "Then our Fire Faction will be left to fight the weaker cultivators!"

    "Haha, with this n then we will have lowered our chances of defeats and deaths¡­"

    "We are so wrong about him. He indeed has a n¡­"

    "Unity is strength! Haha¡­"

    "So what is the n?"

    Ji Yuan grinned. "We will divide our Fire Faction into two main groups. We will only fight in the battle arena on alternate days and only once if we have won. The reason why we don''t all fight on alternate days at the same time is because we don''t want the other factions to find that they seem to be fighting less of the Fire Factions."

    Mo Bei nodded andughed. "Since we have suffered so badly on the first day, then they will think that we are afraid or are just nursing our wounds. We actually won''t be missed by anyone."

    Many of the cultivators are all nodding at the same time and pping their hands.

    All of a sudden the depressing mood that was in the hall earlier seemed to havepletely lifted and many of the cultivators saw a renew hope again.

    A quiet voice seemed to havee out from nowhere. "No, this won''t work at all."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he found this voice to be all too familiar¡­

    It hade from Yu Jingjing as she walked slowly in front of Ji Yuan to repeat. "This n will not work at all."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly; is she trying to rub salt into my wounds? Has she forgotten my help earlier? Surely she isn''t this petty, am I right?<sub> </sub>

    Yu Jingjing raised her petite voice, "I can exin. Have you all not noticed that the Air and Earth Faction have both stopped at the fifth level?"

    "There are two reasons why they are stopping at the fifth level¡­"

    "One is that they are aware that losing on the fifth level will cause them to lose three of their wings and demoted to the second level."

    "Two is that they are aware that they are pairing against the top cultivators and are unwilling to progress further. Of course, we can''t eliminate the possibility that they are also in need of a good rest after several fights."

    "Three is that they have smart cultivators there as well and have suddenly halted their progression lest the weakest fraction decides to exploit this to their advantage."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Your reasoning is good but they can only work this out if they are working together. Do you think they will be working together, like us?"

    Yu Jingjing looked at everyone, "If we can sit down here to work together, do you think that they won''t?"

    Everyone was speechless and did not know what to say.

    They did not dare to suggest the wrong thing lest they will be targeted in the future!

    Ji Yuan did not know if the other fractions will be working together as well.

    But one thing was for sure; this Yu Jingjing is purposely making him lose his face in public!

    So he replied coldly, "We don''t know for sure. So we can definitely try if my n works or not."

    "It won''t work." Yu Jingjing said coolly. "Because some of the defeated opponents on the fifth level may be on the second level waiting for us."

    Ji Yuan immediately said. "If they are defeated opponents then they won''t have their cultivation resources anyway and will probably be the weaker ones. Do we even need to worry about that?"

    Yu Jingjing said coolly, "This is a risk that we have to take, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan point out. "This is better than no n at all."

    "I, on the other hand, have a better n. I''ve found a loophole that may allow us to win. Do you want to hear?" Yu Jingjing said as she looked quietly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly. "Naturally if you have a better n than mine."

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "We can do this in a bloodless way. We can make an agreement with the opposing factions to rig the results of the battle arena. As long as the opponent is a higher cultivation realm expert then the victor will be him. If it is the same then it is a draw."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was not the only cultivator that was rendered speechless by her suggestion. In the Celestial Realm, cultivation realm is not the only measure of a cultivator''s true strength. Their profound arts and cultivation trainings also yed a huge part. While a sixth realm cultivator may find it harder to defeat a saint but it is still possible.

    With so many saints among the four factions, no one will admit that they are inferior to anyone and hereby will have to lose all their possessions.

    Many of the cultivators were nowughing at Yu Jingjing and her naivety.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to mock her as well, he caught sight of her earnest look as she said to him. "Great Hero Ji Yuan, can you be the one that will help to persuade the other factions? Then this trial will be a bloodless trial and most of us will be able to ovee this trial."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why me? Is she trying to setup a trap for me?

    "You may think that I am na?ve but I''ve finally realized that this trial is trying to eliminate us. By the end of 30 days, probably we will have less than 10% of the cultivator that can be remained at the very top and maybe only the top 3% can clear this trial."

    She paused to inhale softly. "Have you all never wondered why a defeat will remove three wings after the fifth? The nature of this trial is extremely cunning and wants to manipte us into feeling frustrated and to kill each other."

    With a mncholy look at Ji Yuan, she added. "After I''ve lost everything, I''ve finally realized the truth of this trial. I am sure that there are many of you who have lost everything, am I right?"

    "We have 705 defeats." She emphasized. "And this number will only increase and won''t decrease."

    She turned to look at Ji Yuan with pleading eyes; what sort of a man is Ji Yuan? He can even give her a divine sword. She hopes that she isn''t wrong about him.

    Mo Bei nudged Ji Yuan as he whispered with a smile. "Say yes. You don''t want to break her heart, am I right?"

    But Ji Yuan said coolly, "I reject it because this is not going to work."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing: ¡­

 Chapter 283 The Jade Mansion (6)

    Yu Jingjing was only lightly startled by Ji Yuan''s rejection of her strategy because this was actually within her expectations.

    She could only mutter weakly. "Is that so¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan said. "Even though this is not going to work but I will try it once tomorrow."

    Yu Jingjing was startled. "You''re willing to try?"

    "Sometimes you will never know until you''ve tried." Ji Yuan sighed softly before he turned to his serving maid. "Register me for the battle arena tomorrow."

    The serving maid smiled. "I''m afraid that you''ve to register yourself at the counter."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Lame services¡­

    But he forced out augh as he walked away. "Well then, see you all tomorrow."

    Many of the cultivators were startled as they muttered. "Is he going to try out this n? Is he na?ve as well?"

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking; this is not going to work but at least I''ve a ticket out of this hall now¡­

    He was quickly followed by Mo Bei and Feng Minyue.

    Feng Minyue whispered after him. "Ji Yuan, will you listen to me? I have another n."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan said.

    Feng Minyue pulled Ji Yuan to one side as she whispered to his ears. "We must not let these attendants know¡­"

    Then she whispered. "Do you still remember that we have the Mirror of Telepathy?"

    Ji Yuan''s eyes began to widen as heughed. "Now that is a good n."

    Feng Minyue whispered with a soft sigh. "I haven''t told you the n yet."

    Ji Yuan looked at her porcin face and smiled wryly, "Any ns from Maiden Feng must be a good n, haha."

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    "I''m thinking that you should do this tomorrow instead¡­"

    "Good ns, good ns!" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Feng Minyue disyed a soft groan. "I haven''t even started yet¡­"

    "Haha¡­"

    "This is my n¡­"

    "Maiden Feng, why don''t youe to my room first so that we can have a good chat?"

    Feng Minyue was startled as she quickly said. "Shameless¡­"

    "Erm, I am not thinking of anything else or are you thinking otherwise?" Ji Yuan returned an innocent look at her.

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, I''m serious¡­"

    "I''m serious too." Ji Yuan smiled. "About you."

    Feng Minyue was startled and there was a deep flush on her; luckily, she was wearing a veil or it would be too noticeable.

    However Ji Yuan could tell that she was flushing as there was a hint of pink by the sides of her eyes.

    And she was looking at her hand¡­

    Ji Yuan was also looking at her hand¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan took Feng Minyue''s hand andughed. "Haha. Why don''t you go to the bed with me instead?"

    As suddenly as it had never happened, Feng Minyue had pped his face with an angry huff and had walked away.

    Mo Bei was stunned that Ji Yuan would be so outrageous in front of so many others.

    Even Yu Jingjing was startled; he is just a good-for-nothing lecherous cultivator. Maybe I am really wrong about him¡­

    Many of the cultivators were shouting behind Ji Yuan with great indignant;

    "You call yourself a cultivator of the way?"

    "How dare he outrage a fellow cultivator in such a manner¡­"

    "Not even an unorthodox cultivator would dare to be so shameless¡­"

    "Maybe he is a heretic cultivator¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "He is a beardless cultivator of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, that''s all. I''ve heard that a respectable cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity will have a beard. Only the vilest and the most shameless cultivator will go around without a beard. Even if they have no beards due to their golden transformation, they will still wear a fake beard¡­"

    "It is a terrible stain to my honor to be in the same faction as this shameless cultivator¡­"

    "Great hero? My foot!"

    Even Mo Bei was gasping with exasperation. "Qianxue is so wrong in you. You should really examine your character!"

    But Ji Yuan took the insults calmly and had walked quietly away.

    -

    -

    -

    The next day, Ji Yuan was standing in the battle arena again.

    His rival, a beard cultivator from the Water Faction had immediately appeared on the other side of the tform to face him and was looking quite nervous.

    How could he not be nervous?

    After he was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and he knew who Ji Yuan was; the Sword Demon that had killed Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, the Great Hero Ji Yuan that had killed an eighth rank deste metamorph beast and a great saint that had an immortal-step sword!

    If Ji Yuan could hear his anxious heart, he would sh a grin and said. "s, why am I so awesome? Who says I''ve an immortal-step divine sword now? Look at my divine sword, it is only a saint-step divine sword¡­"

    Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue and Mo Bei were all watching Ji Yuan keenly¡­

    On the opposing side, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were also looking keenly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan suddenly said. "Before we fight, I have two things to say. May I?"

    The opposing cultivator began to stammer. "You¡­may¡­I mean you can¡­"

    Ji Yuan was amazed by how smooth it was as he said aloud, mustering his puny martial shout to say thunderously. "Well, first all I want to start from the least important thing. Do you all know that you are all being monitored by all the trial spirit? It is best that you don''t share your gossips or any useful information in front of your serving attendants."

    When he had said that, many of thebatants had suddenly stopped fighting and wereughing aloud. "What is it? Is he crazy? Or he has a phobia?"

    There were at least 40batants that were fighting inside the battle arena. Even though there was an invisible barrier around all thebatants but it was not sound proof.

    Many of the spectors were allughing and mocking at him.

    Only a few cultivators took notice of his advices. Among them were Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuan smiled. "Therefore I will advise you to discharge them from your services. No matter how beautiful they look, they are roses with thorns."

    Many of the spectors in the Fire Faction were all shaking their head; it was because this Ji Yuan was causing their Fire Faction to be in disrepute and causing the other factions to look down on the already weak Fire Faction now!

    Some wereughing, "Maybe he is too poor to have a beautiful attendant..."

    But Ji Yuan did not mind at all. He was used to being the clown and he had to put across this message.

    It was because this was the message that Feng Minyue had told him to deliver!

    Yesterday Feng Minyue had secretly written a message on his palm while pretending to p him. She had only written two words; serving attendants.

    Ji Yuan immediately knew what she was trying to tell him and had yacted in front of everyone; it was because he knew that the trial spirit was keenly watching his every move.

    It was because their sharp eyes could already observed that the many different serving attendants in the hall were suddenly exchanging their dead eyes with a subtle life and they were looking at Ji Yuan intently.

    Only when he could warn his beloveds to dismiss their serving attendants then they could use the Mirror of Telepathy tomunicate with them!

    He added. "Maybe even your rooms are not safe at all."

    Ji Yuan was now grinning. He hadpleted his first task.

    Now for the second task.

    He was smiling weakly; he was going to get mocked very badly by his opponent as well as everyone from all the four factions.

    But he had to honor Yu Jingjing''s request at least once even though he did not agree with it.

    So he said. "Secondly, I have an idea. I hope that the trial will be conducted in a bloodless and civilize way. Why don''t wepare cultivation realm levels for a quick win, lose or draw¡­"

    "Your idea¡­is good¡­I surrender¡­you can take all my cultivation resources¡­" His opponent suddenly stammered and interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Wait, I haven''t finished speaking¡­don''t teleport me again¡­"

    p The trial spirit announced, "Number 44,444 has won against 26781."</anda>

    Yu Jingjing was flushing all of a sudden as she covered her mouth. "He has really used my n and it works¡­"

    All of a sudden she felt that her heart was beating very fast for no apparent reason¡­

 Chapter 284 The Jade Mansion (7)

    Ji Yuan had a most sheepish look when he was suddenly teleported off even before he could finish speaking off his mind.

    But he soon shrugged it off, "It will never work anyway."

    The reason why it had suddenly worked was because that cultivator was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Obviously he knew who Ji Yuan was and he was afraid.

    "Just my bad luck to meet someone from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Actually my point is to prove that this is not going to work¡­s¡­"

    As he was muttering to himself, he was also looking at the two wings on his forehand when suddenly he was interrupted by a sweet voice.

    "Ji Yuan. Thank you! It really works."

    It was Yu Jingjing and she had suddenly appeared in the main hall.

    She was also followed keenly behind by many cultivators, including Feng Minyue and Mo Bei.

    But Yu Jingjing was the first to greet Ji Yuan as she wanted to offer him her most profuse thanks.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly noticed many angry look that were on the cultivators that had gathered and they numbered at least a thousand!

    It was because by now the entire Fire Faction had heard that Ji Yuan had a solution for them to win the trial for their faction.

    But they had witnessed nothing and only ame n!

    It was no wonder that they had such an angry look as they gathered to confront Ji Yuan.

    It was because the n did not work but the other three factions were now mocking at the Fire Faction for even suggesting such a n!

    Many of the cultivators were now staring coldly at Yu Jingjing and Ji Yuan.

    "No n is better than a stupid n."

    "This Maiden Yu may be na?ve but I can''t believe that this Ji Yuan is also na?ve as well."

    "Now we are the joke of this trial¡­"

    "We ought to teach him a lesson for yesterday outrageous behavior¡­"

    Ji Yuan took a weak look at everyone as he muttered. "Look here. All men are brothers and all women are my sisters. Haha. I did win, am I right? I did say this n is not going to work¡­"

    He was quickly interrupted by many of the cultivators who were demanding blood;

    "We want this Maiden Yu and Ji Yuan here to apologize to us immediately!"

    "If this Maiden Yu does not toast us all a drink, we won''t let this matter off!"

    "I don''t mind if she is willing to apany us to the bed chamber¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frowning as he suddenly realized the true intentions of some of the cultivators here; they were just creating trouble in the hope of humiliating Yu Jingjing and not really because of the way the n turned out.

    Many of these cultivators were actually viewing one another as a directpetitor and they were just trying to put down their rivals to gain a psychology advantage.

    Even though they were all in the Fire Faction but many of the cultivators did not really care about this and were just fishing for the sake of creating troubles.

    And their first targets were naturally Yu Jingjing and Ji Yuan.

    Yu Jingjing said coolly, "There are so many of you here and I can''t toast all of you. Why don''t I y from my zither to entertain everyone instead?"

    Although she had lost her heaven-step zither but her normal zithers were still intact as it was not a cultivation resource and therefore she could still y her music.

    Many of the cultivators were smiling disgustingly. "Then y your music until we are happy."

    But there were also many righteous cultivators in the hall who were saying bitterly. "Just once will do! No need! Don''t make things too difficult for them! We''re after all, from the same faction!"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted everyone with an angry look. "Look at all of you. You dare to call yourself cultured cultivators? I thought that I am a rascal cultivator but you''re worse than me. You''re treating Maiden Yu like amon courtesan instead of a saintess! Shameful!"

    Then he turned to Yu Jingjing to say, "Why don''t I y a tune for everyone instead?"

    Yu Jingjing smiled weakly, "My zither is a twenty-four string instrument and is extremely difficult to y. Moreover you may even hurt your fingers while handling it¡­"

    "May I?" Ji Yuan smiled as he had suddenly extended out his hand to take her zither.

    Bowled over by Ji Yuan''s beautiful smiling face, Yu Jingjing found herself loosening her fingers and had forgotten to stop him.

    Therefore Ji Yuan had easily taken the zither from her as he grinned. "I didn''t exactly y for a long time so I don''t know if I can y well. Please pardon me if I didn''t y well."

    Many of the cultivators wereughing and mocking loudly, even the ones that were not in support of pushing Ji Yuan and Yu Jingjing.

    "He knows how to y a zither?"

    "He must be joking, am I right?"

    "Everyone can y but can one y well or not, haha¡­"

    Even Mo Bei wasughing jovially as he stroked his beard while muttering, "Little Brother Ji Yuan is so funny. I should teach him a trick or two if he really wants to impress the maidens in our faction¡­"

    Feng Minyue was smiling weakly at Ji Yuan as she could not bear to watch the oue of his daring performance¡­

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he found himself a table to put the zither before he seated himself.

    Then he started to pluck his fingers on the zither and it went dong, dong, bonk, bonk!

    The sound was really awful.

    Many of the cultivators wereughing and some were even rolling to and fro with greatughter.

    Many of the maidens wereughing and giggling too as they whispered;

    "Actually even if he cannot y his music well, that is still alright¡­"

    "That is because he really got good looks¡­"

    "Hehe, what a fine looking man¡­"

    "I wonder if he has a dual cultivation partner already¡­"

    "But he looks a little poor¡­"

    One ugly cultivator said to the maidens nearby, "I can definitely y the zither better than him. In my celestial fraternity, I am known as the one of the three Musical Sages."

    Many of the maidens were suddenly giggling behind him;

    "He doesn''t have the looks to match his music talent¡­"

    "What the point of knowing how to y good music when he doesn''t have the look¡­"

    "How can I appreciate his music when his looks can''t even bepared to that Ji Yuan?"

    "Before he starts, I am puking at his looks already¡­"

    The ugly cultivator could not resist humming coldly, "All of you are so superficial. It is no wonder the Celestial Realm is degenerating nowadays."

    Many of the maidens were retorting back at him; these maidens were all golden celestials and were not pushovers, especially when there were so many of them versus a lone ugly cultivator.

    "What do you know? Looks are everything¡­"

    "Who wants to spend time with you if you don''t even have good looks?"

    "I can be forgiving to beautiful men but I can''t stand ugly men¡­"

    "Move aside and don''t stop us from appreciating a beauty¡­"

    The ugly cultivator and many men: ¡­

    Ji Yuan began to ignore themotions as he started to y the zither.

    As he plucked the strings of the zither, he began to sing with a hearty voice;

    "?? ???????????? ???????? ??????¡­"

    "???????????? ???????? ???? ?????? ?? ???????????? ???????? ??????¡­"

    "???? ?????????????????? ?????????? ?????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????? ?????? ?????? ?????????? ???????? ?? ???????? ???? ???????? ?????????? ???????? ???????? ???? ????????????????????¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "???????? ?? ???????? ???? ???????? ???????????? ??????????, ?? ?????????? ?????? ???????? ?????????????? ???? ???? ???????? ?? ?????????? ??????????¡­"

    "???????????? ?????????? ???? ???? ?????? ?????????? ???? ???????? ???????? ???????? ???? ???? ?????????????? ?????????????? ???? ???????? ?? ???????? ?????? ???????????? ???? ???? ??????????¡­"

    "???? ???? ???????? ???????? ???????????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ?????? ?????? ???????????? ???????? ???? ????????¡­"

    "?????? ?????????????????? ???? ???????? ???????? ???? ?? ????????, ?? ??????????''?? ?????? ???? ???? ???????? ??????????¡­"

    "?? ?????? ?????????? ???????????? ?????????? ???????? ?????????? ???????? ???????? ???????????????????? ???? ???? ????????¡­"

    "?? ???????????????? ???????????????? ???? ???? ??????????, ?? ???????????? ???????????????????? ?????? ?????????????????? ???? ???????? ???????????????????? ????????¡­"

    "???????????? ?????????? ???? ???? ???????? ?????? ???????? ?? ???????? ??????¡­"

    "?? ???????????? ???????? ??????¡­"

    "???????????? ???????? ???? ?? ???????????? ?????? ???? ???? ?????? ???????? ????????¡­"

    All the cultivators were stunned when Ji Yuan had started to y the zither; it was too heavenly and in fact they had never known anyone that could y so well.

    Even the ugly cultivator who is one of the three Musical Sages waspletely stunned.

    Even those that did not understand music are allpletely blown away by the heavenly music.

    It was not only Ji Yuan''s skill zither was heavenly but his beautiful voice as well.

    Immediately the hearts of the many maidens werepletely dazzled and melted by him as they thought; is he talking about me?

    Yu Jingjing was stunned by the heavenly music as well as she thought; he takes my zither¡­don''t tell that he is borrowing my zither to hint to me that he likes me?

    She was suddenly flushing with hot flushes and she really wanted to hide her beautiful face behind a veil¡­

    Feng Mingyue was trembling when she caught Ji Yuan had stolen a nce in her direction and was grinning.

    As she lowered her shy nces, she caught sight of her hand that Ji Yuan had hold only yesterday and was startled with a thought; don''t tell me that he is singing this song because he was holding my hand yesterday¡­

    Confusion and the pace of her heart immediately went faster, causing her to flush behind her veil as she sunk in her thoughts¡­

    She muttered silently; he is really a badass. Only he can sing something like this in front of so many...

    When Ji Yuan was looking at Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing had thought that Ji Yuan was actually looking at her; this confirmed and convinced her that Ji Yuan was in love with her.

    She was thinking; why then did he agree to act on my n even though it will make him appears to be foolish in front of so many cultivators. He is only doing everything because of my sake¡­

    Xiang Li was startled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she stared dreamily at Ji Yuan; Big Brother, is he singing this love song to me? I know this is a song love. Is he trying to tell me that I am his eternal support¡­I am Big Brother''s spirit entity and I don''t need his thanks¡­but Big Brother, he¡­has fallen in love with me¡­"

    She was holding her face as she could feel the warmth of her cheeks as she gasped. "I can feel myself¡­even when I didn''t materialize outside of Big Brother¡­is this true love?"

    Ji Yuan hadpletely stunned everyone.

    How did he manage to y the zither to such a level and sing his lyrics in such a moving manner?

    Ji Yuan had spent several centuries inside the Dream Trial doing nothing but yed the music instruments every day for his beloved consorts.

    He really had nothing better to do every day except for singing and ying sentimental music to all his beloved consorts because he thought that he may never see some of them ever again.

    Now the skills from the Dream Trial could not be brought over and would be forgotten once the Dream Trial had ended.

    But music was a soul thing and Ji Yuan happened to have a perfect 10 for his soul level. And the music that he had yed and created is all deeply entrenched into his soul.

    He really did not lie that he had not yed for a long time and when he had first touched the zither, he had suddenly remembered how to y the zither because his heart had remembered the teary and sentimental days in the Dream Trial when he thought that he may lose his beloved consorts forever.

    But of course this factor was not enough.

    There was a double factor as well.

    Ji Yuan is known as the Great Poet Ji Yuan and his poems are all moving and touching. This allowed him his sub-consciousness to remember how to y the zither because he could remember the poems that he had created as this was his innate ability.

    Therefore he was now ying the zither to heavenly level and he was actually reciting his poem as a song.

    That was the reason why Jiajia, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had all wanted to meet Ji Yuan but they were too shy to meet him so they had to cook up an excuse to be acquainted with him. After all, they were all noble maidens and it was beneath their station to meet a peasant cultivator like Ji Yuan.

    Also there was a big problem with Ji Yuan; it was said that he had broken the hearts of many maidens because he refused to entertain them no matter how beautiful they were.

    There was a rumor that Ji Yuan was actually a gay.

    Therefore Jiajia decided to setup Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue as well while thinking; let''s see if these two great beauties that are exalted in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity can move you or not. If they can''t then I truly believe that you''re a gay¡­

    Jiajia had long admired Ji Yuan''s poems and she wanted to find a way to get his attention. She had never expected her ns to be screwed up because Ji Yuan had fallen in love with her at first sight.

    Ji Yuan was repeating his song and he yed for some time.

    But this time no one dared to say anything disrespectful or even mutter a single word lest they disturbed themselves from listening to this impossible heavenly music.

    To the astonishments of many cultivators, they could feel that their hearts were all burning with emotions and even their soul seas were overflowing; many of them had a sudden breakthrough in their small cultivation realms or had a sudden cultivation insight!

    These cultivators suddenly had tears in their eyes as they could not believe what they were experiencing!

    Even those that did not have any breakthroughs could feel that their soul seas were rapidly expanding!

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan began to cease ying slowly as he lowered his head.

    There were deep grief from everyone when they could feel that Ji Yuan was about to stop ying.

    Many of the cultivators were begging silently in their hearts; please don''t stop ying¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had changed the tunes and he was singing heartily again;

    "???????????? ???????????????????? ?????? ???? ??????????????????????¡­"

    "?????????????????????? ???? ?????? ???????? ????????????¡­"

    "?????????? ?? ??????, ???????????????? ?? ??????????¡­"

    "?? ???? ?????? ???????????????? ???? ?????? ?????????????????? ???? ?? ?????????? ???? ???? ??????????''?? ??????????????¡­"

    "???????????????? ???? ?????? ????????, ?? ???????? ???????? ???? ?????????? ??????????????¡­"

    "???????? ???? ?????????? ?????? ?????????????????? ?????????????? ???? ?????????? ???? ????, ?? ???????? ???? ???????? ???? ???????? ???? ???????????? ???? ??????????¡­"

    "?? ?????? ???????? ???????? ???????? ?????? ?????????? ???? ?????? ??????????¡­"

    "?? ?????? ???????? ???????????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????????????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ???? ?????????? ????????????????????¡­"

    "?? ??????''?? ???????? ?????? ?????????????????????????? ???? ???????????? ???????? ?? ?????????? ???????? ?? ?????????? ????????????????¡­"

    "?????????????? ??''?? ???????????????????? ???????? ?? ???? ??????????¡­"

    "Hahahaha¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw that everyone was looking with a stoned expression at him as he raised his head.

    He could only smile awkwardly, "I guess that I''ve gone a little overboard with a second song. I was a little too high¡­"

    All of a sudden many of the cultivators were shouting heartily;

    "Not at all!"

    "Come, let''s us toast Brother Ji a drink!"

    "He is right! We are invincible when we''re drunk!"

    "Let''s us all be happy immortals tonight!"

    Ji Yuan was startled to find that he was suddenly being mobbed by both men and women at the same time.

    "Wait¡­what is this? What is going on?!"

    Many of the maidens including Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all flushing as they surrounded Ji Yuan excitedly¡­

 Chapter 285 Reflections Of The Heart (1)

    Feng Minyue was now alone in her room as she stared nkly into the air as she recounted Ji Yuan''s y earlier.

    It was so unexpected to her to know that Ji Yuan was actually aposer, a musician and a poet at the same time. What was more, he had an extremely high attainment as well. This was something very rare in the Celestial Realm.

    What was making this even rarer was that Ji Yuan also had a really very beautiful face that could make women''s hearts beat fast; he was really very charming, especially when he was disying his badass roguish grin.

    The only imperfect about his looks was that he was too shabby dressed and too poor looking. Otherwise in terms of looks, he would be the most perfect.

    As a cultivator, he also had his imperfections; he was a sword cultivator and not a power cultivator or a strength cultivator. Therefore his profound strength and profound animus were allckingpared to the same cultivation realm cultivator.

    As any cultivators will be able to point out, this is actually a fatal w because without a strong profound strength and profound animus base, Ji Yuan would find it really hard to cultivate as a great saint in the future.

    His future as a cultivator would be slow, tedious and treacherous!

    He may not even survive his lightning tribtion and the multiple life and death tribtions!

    Feng Minyue was now shaking her head because for some unknown reason Ji Yuan is already a peaked great saint now.

    How did he aplish this feat given that he had so little cultivation resources and so few lucky urrences in his cultivator''s path?

    So she began to mutter almost incoherently, "Maybe his cultivation foundation is too weak for him to ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future and he would perish in the process¡­"

    Then she was smiling to herself, "But this little rascal had actually ovee his purple lightning tribtion so he can anchor in the Celestial Realm for thousands of years more, more than most cultivators¡­"

    "But he is so reckless. He probably won''t even have the chance to do so because he would die halfway because he is too unmindful¡­"

    She giggled softly, "I am a purple lightning cultivator as well¡­"

    She was one of the few cultivators to have ovee the nine-nine purple lightning tribtion. Her Sister Saintess Fan Yuqing had aided her naturally.

    "So we are a match¡­may I won''t even have a chance to ascend as well because I may die in a trial somewhere¡­"

    One may think that Feng Minyue''s thoughts were now incoherent and randomly linking up but it was all too normal for a maiden; they could not help linking up the bad and good things at once about a person and picturing themselves inside topare with the man in their heart.

    All of a sudden she was smiling when she had recalled Ji Yuan''s astonishing expression earlier when he was being mobbed by everyone and everyone was calling him the God of Songs.

    She was suddenly flushing when she remembered the song that Ji Yuan was ying to her as she stared at her fingers that Ji Yuan had hold only yesterday¡­

    Her thoughts quickly flew back to when she was dead drunk as she said to Ji Yuan, "When I was a young maiden of twenty-five, my mother consort used to warn me that I cannot get married if I continued to drink better than any men. She used to say that no men will like to marry a drunkard. Do you think that this is the most ridiculous thing to say?"

    "Who wants to marry a man? If he doesn''t love me because I drink then he isn''t someone who is suitable for me. Moreover, do I even need a man when I''ve already cultivated as a great saintess now? All men are lecherous. Do you agree with me?"

    This was what she had told him in her drunken stupor.

    She was gasping lightly when she suddenly remembered his second song was called the ''The Drunken Immortal''.

    "He is purposely singing this song to hint me that he doesn''t mind that I drink?"

    Feng Minyue was the cold hearted beauty and she was unmoved by the sentiments of the heart for most of her life. She had always wanted to be a carefree cultivator and did not think that she would need a man. Moreover she hailed from an all-women sect.

    But this time she found herself truly moved by Ji Yuan¡­

    She quickly shook her reflections off as she had suddenly remembered she got something important to settle first as she quietly left her room.

    It was because she knew that that their rooms were not safe for her tomunicate with her party as she could sense the presence of a slight profound signature that belonged to the trial spirit. It was a profound signature that only detectable by the golden and purple lightning great saints.<sub> </sub>

    As soon as she walked to a corridor and she had detected that it was clear of profound signatures of the trial spirit, she quickly took out the Mirror of Telepathy and thrown in several thousands of spirit stones as she willed the Mirrors of Telepathy that belonged to Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Shui Xisi to appear.

    As soon as she was connected to their images, she was greeted by excited voices. "It is Maiden Minyue¡­what takes you so long¡­I''ve been waiting for you¡­"

    But she quickly said. "Listen all. The flower only blossom on alternate days¡­"

    All of a sudden her Mirror of Telepathy was cracked by an invisible force and exploded in front of her!

    While Feng Minyue was startled but she was not surprised; it was because she knew that the trial spirit would attempt to prevent cheating or externalmunications. But the reaction of this trial spirit was simply too quick!

    She could only sigh softly. "Let''s hope this message is enough¡­"

    The flower only blossom on alternate days actually mean that Ji Yuan and her would fight on alternate days. Therefore she was warning them not to fight on the same day as Ji Yuan to allow themselves more room for their tactical nning.

    Feng Minyue felt a little guilty that this was all she could manage tomunicate past to the others and sincerely hope that it was enough or else she would feel very guilty to disappoint Ji Yuan.

    After all, Ji Yuan had taken a p from her willingly to put on an act in front of the others. Therefore she must not allow Ji Yuan to be pped in vain.

    "What if he wants me to be with him aspensation for letting him down? Then I will really be at a loss¡­"

    Even though she was saying she was not willing to be with Ji Yuan but her heart was actually willing.

    Women are sometimes full of contradictions.

    Actually men too as well.

    "I wonder what kind of a man Ji Yuan really is? But he has no beard. In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, to insult the beards of the men is the same as insulting their personal honor, their sect, their elders and ancestors. I''ve heard that entire celestial ns there will even fight against one another if anyone is to insult their beards. But why is that Ji Yuan doesn''t have a beard?"

    Feng Minyue sighed softly as she walked dreamily in the corridor¡­

    Ji Yuan was suddenly sneezing in his room at the mention of his beard.

    If he could respond then it would be, "Actually I''ve lost my beard during my golden transformation. It isn''t why I am walking around beardless and seem proud of it but it is a long story. You see, I am thinking that having beards are ugly and it restricts my cultivation. Haha."

    He would naturally lie about it in a most shameless manner because deep down in his heart, he was still ouch, ouch about the loss in his sad heart.

    After all, no one can change thousands of years of hardcore beliefs just like this, especially when everyone is so deeply steeped in it.

    Ji Yuan was faking that he liked his beardless self because he had no other choice; the loss of his beard was a permanent one, whether he liked it or not.

    If anyone was Ji Yuan and once had the title of the most beautiful bearded cultivator, they would also find it heartbreaking to convince themselves otherwise as well.

    Therefore for Ji Yuan, he was entirely in the norm and perfectly understandable for him to act in this manner.

    The cultivators from the other celestial fraternity may not fully understand what a beard would mean to the men from the Deste Celestial Fraternity, from the lowest cultivation realm to the highest cultivation realm, a bearded man could easily get spirit stones credit and cultivation resource loans just because he looked respectable with a beautiful beard.

    They had to imagine if they were rich and suddenly all their wealth was stolen away, only then would they imagine what a beard would mean to the men in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Or a highly prized divine sword that was suddenly taken away.

    But if there is anyone that cannot imagine then there is a saying in the Celestial Realm that the person maye from the earth realm where there are a lot of people that only live in their own self-righteous one-sided fantasies; in their hearts, they already dictated what is right and what is wrong regardless of the cultural setting.

    To call a cultivator and rebuke him foring from the earth realm is actually the ultimate insult in the Celestial Realm naturally and only the most courageous cultivator will dare to use this term; by insulting him in this manner is also the same as insulting his elders, his celestial n and his ancestors. Even the entire region where the cultivator is from may even want to kill the cultivator that dare to make such an insult.

 Chapter 286 Reflections Of The Heart (2)

    Yu Jingjing was quietly walking along the corridor now.

    She had a look of hesitation in her eyes, "It is already sote now. I wonder if Ji Yuan is still awake or he is actually cultivating right now. It must be an exhausting day for him."

    But when she had thought of the love song that Ji Yuan had dedicated to her, she immediately mustered her courage again.

    "If he is not interested in me then why did he give me a divine sword? This is an earth-step divine sword and not just a broken half-step mortal divine sword. Surely he doesn''t need to do this because I have clearly stepped on his foot a few times and yet he is being so gracious to me¡­"

    "It must be it. He truly admires me. But how do I say no to him? Maybe I should not say no to him first or it will seem to be too rude. We can start off as a friend first. That''s right. We can be friends first."

    When she had thought of this, she mustered more courage in her steps.

    "But what excuse should I use to knock on his door at this hour? What if I am seen by the others?"

    "He has given me a divine sword and I haven''t thanked him yet. That''s right. I should offer my sincere thanks to him. This is only proper. At the same time, we can also clear up our misunderstandings."

    "But if he invites me into his room and even if we are seen by the others, I shouldn''t reject him because he isn''t a bad person. While rumors may be vicious but as long as our conscious are clear, we should not let unfounded rumors affect our friendship."

    She was smiling delightfully as she mustered more courage in her steps.

    But of course if the cultivator was not as handsome as Ji Yuan, it would be a different story. Good looks were more important than real talents in her eyes when ites to entering a stranger''s room.

    90% of the maidens will not say no if the man that they are interested in were to suddenly invite them into his room.

    And Yu Jingjing was not an exception.

    And she would look for any excuse to convince herself otherwise.

    If it was an ugly cultivator, she would use another set of excuses not to enter his room but in the first ce she would never even considered approaching his room at all and not even take any steps in that direction.

    "Of course I won''t because I am a noble maiden from a reputable celestial n. It will be bad for the repute of my celestial n and the chastity of my name if I were to enter an unknown man''s room."

    "But of course Ji Yuan isn''t an unknown man. He is a friend so that is alright." She pointed it out to herself as she smiled delightfully at the thought that she may be entering Ji Yuan''s room.

    "Surely he isn''t a lecherous cultivator and is a gentleman. I will be safe when I''m in hispany. Moreover he is such a romantic cultivator¡­"

    She had totally convinced herself all the good that was in Ji Yuan and why he was given an exception by her.

    Actually Yu Jingjing has a lofty status in the Endless Celestial Fraternity where she hailed from; she is the Holy Oracle Priestess of the Holy Oracle Sect, one of the major celestial ns in her fraternity.

    That was not all of it. The Holy Oracle Sect actually collects information about the various celestial fraternities and that is why she has known about the other major figures of the other celestial fraternities.

    She really did not lie about her background.

    The very reason why she did not know about Ji Yuan is because her celestial information can be quite outdated by 5-10 years.

    Although Ji Yuan is renowned in the Deste Celestial Fraternity but he was not a saint 5-10 years ago.

    And the Holy Oracle Sect only keeps record of the saintly cultivators.

    Therefore she really did not know who Ji Yuan is.

    That was why Ji Yuan had thought that she was a fraudster and was in conspiracy with the other cultivators from the other fraternity.

    She actually did not know anyone else in this trial.

    As she walked along the corridor, a bearded cultivator was suddenly smiling to her.

    She did not know him but she had recognized that he was from the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the same celestial fraternity as Ji Yuan.

    This bearded cultivator smiled, "Maiden Yu, I''ve a letter for you from Saint Ji Yuan. Will you be so kind enough to follow me to my room to retrieve it?"

    Yu Jingjing was startled, "Um, a letter from Ji Yuan? Why did he have to write a letter for me? Why doesn''t he ask me directly?"

    The bearded cultivatorughed, "He says he is a little shy. However I do not know the details of the letter."

    Yu Jingjing was thinking: Does he not know that I am already going to look for him? Does he need to be so shy?

    But she replied cautiously, "Why don''t you just pass the letter to me? Why must I go to your room?"

    The bearded cultivator smiled gently, "Our rooms are our personalized ces in this trial. No matter how powerful a cultivator is, they cannot force themselves into our room to disturb us. Therefore I''ve ced the letter inside my room. That is naturally the most secured ce. If I were to lose the letter, I will be letting down Great Hero Ji Yuan¡­s!"

    Yu Jingjing nodded with a shy smile. "This makes sense. I will follow you to your room."

    "How do I address you?"

    The bearded cultivatorughed softly as he stroked his beard, "I''m Saint Mo Hai, from the same sect as Senior Mo Bei."

    As he turned around, he was secretly smiling; it was because that was obviously a lie. He was actually Chen Hai from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    He had actually recognized Ji Yuan on the first day and he had a mission to kill Ji Yuan.

    And when he saw that Ji Yuan was in trouble with the cultivators from the Fire Faction, he was there to fan the mes.

    But unfortunately, it seemed that Ji Yuan was able to get off the hook with his stunning musical y.

    Therefore he had hatched a new plot; if he could not kill Ji Yuan directly then he will hurt the ones that are closest to him or at least make use of them to exploit for a vulnerability to kill Ji Yuan.

    Naturally Yu Jingjing was his target because she looked extremely na?ve and moreover, she was also stunning beautiful.

    Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were actually both his targets.

    But he had decided to set his sight of Yu Jingjing first because he knew that she had lost all her cultivation resources and may not be in her top form.

    In a fight, profound strength is not everything but the mental state of the exponents will also y a huge part.

    Yu Jingjing may be feeling down and she may not be able to disy her form to the fullest.

    Chen Hai wanted to be sure because he knew he was dealing with a saintess. In a fight between two saints, it is not so straightforward.

    However he hid a more nefarious plot of course.

    He actually did not want to kill her, at least not yet.

    It was because he was a dual cultivator and he practiced the evil dual cultivation art.

    Therefore he naturally wanted to dual with Yu Jingjing.

    And he was an experienced elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce who was versed in all kinds of trickery and charms. Once Yu Jingjing is in his room, he will use his 36 art of seduction tricks to seduce her.

    But if it all fail to work then he will use his ultimate trick that is superior to these 36 tricks; the ''The Ultimate Gatecrash''.

    ''The Ultimate Gatecrash'' will work even against the most haughty and lofty maiden, even if she is a great saintess.

    In his room he had already nted plenty of flush, flush stuff to catch Yu Jingjing''s eyes and to cause her thoughts to go amok with lust. Toplement all these, he had plenty of secret mechanism that he had already nted to trigger her lusts, naturally.

    In this field, he was naturally the expert or else he would not be a saint of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    He was already dreaming of taking her body already and forcing her to engage in all kinds of depravity with her.

    And then he would take her as his dual cultivation partner.

    But his ns would not end there.

    Maybe he would even be the new master of the Endless Celestial Fraternity together with her!

    Such a perfect maiden and one that was so na?ve in thoughts.

    No one woulde to her rescue because he knew that Ji Yuan and his group were all too busy this night¡­

    And as elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce, he naturally knew who were the ones from the Deste Celestial Fraternity that would want to kill Ji Yuan and he already had a helper from one of the orthodox celestial ns from the Deste Celestial Fraternity to alert him.

    But this was totally unnecessary because even an immortal cultivator would not be able to gatecrash into his room unless he willed his permission.<sub> </sub>

    In his room, he is naturally the king and he can do whatever he wants with her.

    Even Yu Jingjing will not be able to escape from his hands once she is inside.

    He was soon smiling to Yu Jingjing as he pointed at a shimming portal. "We are here. Wee to my humble abode."

    Yu Jingjing was smiling innocently, "I wonder what Ji Yuan wants to say to me in the letter."

    "You will soon know." Chen Hai smiled wryly.

    Yu Jingjing nodded as she stepped into the shimming portal and she was followed by Chen Hai.

    As they entered through the shimmering portal, the portal disappeared entirely because Chen Hai had willed that he was not to be disturbed by anyone.

    He had fully made use of the nature of this trial to freely do whatever he wanted.

    He was naturally a brilliant and a genius saint cultivator.

    Or else he would have wasted nearly a thousand of his years to cultivate in the harsh reality of the cultivation fraternity.

    By his standard even Ji Yuan was too young and too simple even though he had be a saint.

    Because Ji Yuan was simply too poor and he hade from a remote region of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    For someone like Ji Yuan thatcked worldly experiences and the finery life of the cultivation fraternity, he was like a joke in Chen Hai''s experienced and worldly eyes.

    He will bang this Yu Jingjing first and then Feng Minyue will naturally be his next target!

    He wasughing silently now because he was naturally a winner unlike Ji Yuan who had been a loser for most of his life.

    But there was something that concerned him; he had spotted Little Princess in the trial and he knew that Little Princess and Ji Yuan belonged to the same party.

    Although Little Princess was wearing a veil but she could not hide her bewitching aura that was all too familiar to him. And she was really sexy even with her clothing on.

    Although they had pretended not to know each other but this information was known to him.

    He was smiling again: maybe I can use of Ji Yuan to crush Little Princess'' will¡­

    When Yu Jingjing had entered through the portal and into Chen Hai''s room, she could sniff a strong scent inside and there were many sks of oil.

    Chen Hai merely smiled. "I''m an alchemist so there are many sks of aromatic oils in here. If maiden wants one, I can offer it as a gift to you."

    Yu Jingjing was feeling a little dizzy now as the fragrance oils were really too overwhelming and this was not lost on Chen Hai.

    His depravity n was now beginning to work!

    Nothing was easier than targeting a lone maiden from a little known celestial fraternity!

    Because after this trial has ended, no one will care; it is because it is the norm for cultivators to perish in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. There are no questions asked.

    Yu Jingjing asked quietly. "So where is the letter from Ji Yuan?"

    Chen Hai smiled as he reached into a ck box to retrieve something; there is actually no letter from Ji Yuan inside. Rather, it contains an envelope that isced with deadly amorous powders.

    Once Yu Jingjing has opened the envelope, a powdery explosion will ur and she will be victim to him.

    At the same time Chen Hai has already prepared his deadly lustful darts to attack her three upoints points that will cause her to be overwhelmed with lust.

    While his amorous powder is deadly but his victim is after all, a saintess. Therefore he had prepared several sets of fail-safe stratagems.

    After all, Chen Hai is really an experienced dual cultivator.

    He could already imagine sinking his deadly ws into Yu Jingjing''s soft and sensual body¡­

    All of a sudden Yu Jingjing had turned around to say, "You''re a cultivator from the Evil Cultivation Pce, am I right? And you are also a high level cultivator too."

    Chen Hai was startled and before he could exin, a divine sword from Yu Jingjing had suddenly shed at his heart!

    While he was doubly startled that she had a divine sword, he was always prepared for a surprise attack. After all, he is not a saint in vain or else he will not be still alive to this day.

    Therefore he had reached out to catch the divine sword with his iron fingers.

    Unarmedbat is usually faster than a weapon in reaction time and that is why many of the power cultivators prefer to attack with their palm, finger and fist profound skills.

    Moreover his divine sense could sense that Yu Jingjing was focusing all her profound power into her sword.

    After he had stopped her, she would be defenseless.

    But to his utter surprise, Yu Jingjing''s sword thrust to his heart had suddenly turned into her left finger and her divine sword was suddenly pointing downward at his loin.

    It was so sudden and unbelievable when Chen Hai''s loin was pierced by Yu Jingjing.

    Before he could even react in pain, Yu Jingjing''s left finger had suddenly switched to a powerful palm that struck him violently on his chest as he was sent flying backward.

    He simply could not believe what was happening!

    But even as he struggled weakly to get up and to fight back since a saint is not easily killed, Yu Jingjing had already shed next to him with a cold smile. "You''re dead."

    She had brutally shed his loin multiple times.

    Words were not enough to describe Chen Hai''s great pain in his tenderloin; it was the most horrifying and brutal attack, even despicable attack at which Chen Hai was in so much pain that he could not even muster his profound strength to do any meaningful resistance.

    In fact, he was suddenly reduced to a lowly cultivator as he was sliced painfully to his death by Yu Jingjing.

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly, "I forget to tell you that my celestial sect has an internal profound art that can resist your despicable tricks."

    Over the thousands of years, men had evolved in their deprave acts and women had also evolved in their counter-measures.

    "Also, while I can''t use my Shadow Lotus Sword in the battle arena but it is just right to use it on you."

    Her Shadow Lotus Sword was a sword art that fooled the opponent into thinking that her profound power was directly through her sword before switching suddenly with her non-sword arm in the form of her fingers as her sword finger.

    In that split second, her sword attack would strike the man''s most vulnerable part, rendering himpletely defenseless after a most painful thrust that scattered his profound strength.

    It was a most despicable attack on a man''s most vulnerable part and that was why Yu Jingjing could not use such a sword art during the battle arena in front of the others.

    Also, this is her celestial sect most secret sword art and she can only use it as a secret sword technique.

    Yu Jingjing hummed coldly, "You may think that I am a na?ve maiden, am I right but you''re also a most na?ve man to think that I am a weak and vulnerable maiden. You have forgotten that I''m a saintess with plenty of worldly experiences."

    She had already known that Chen Hai was from the Evil Cultivation Pce and had followed him to his room so as to kill such a despicable man.

    After killing Chen Hai, Yu Jingjing secretly looted Chen Hai of all his possessions before smiling delightfully as she exited his room; this Chen Hai is really a rich cultivator.

    Even though Chen Hai could ensure that Yu Jingjing was not able to exit his room but that was only if he was still alive. A dead man cannot stop Yu Jingjing from leaving, however.

    As Yu Jingjing hopped delightfully on her way to Ji Yuan''s room, she was suddenly dismayed to see a long queue had already formed in front of Ji Yuan''s room as both men and women were all trying to talk to him.

    She totally had not a chance to even enter his room tonight¡­

    All of a sudden she felt like crying out loud.

    "Hey, queue up please!"

    "What do you mean you know Ji Yuan? I know him as well¡­"

    "Please queue just like everyone else¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is my friend! Not yours!"

 Chapter 287 The Battle Of The Wings (1)

    The battle arena was full as usual as the top cultivator exponents from the four factions began their daily battle for their battle wings.

    There were currently more than forty fights going on concurrently at the same time at the huge tform below.

    Naturally the spectors were only interested in the most exciting fights for several reasons; to check on their opponents and to learn the moves of their opponents so that they can guard against it.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi on the other hand were looking intently at the battle arena for sight of Ji Yuan.

    It was because today was the day that Ji Yuan was supposed to fight for his third wing.

    In order to watch Ji Yuan, these maidens had all quickly ovee their first two battles.

    They had expected that Ji Yuan would be there to watch their battles but they were disappointed that he did not appear at all.

    A high wingbatant can always watch a lower wing battle but not a higher wing battle. This rule was created to push thebatants to go for the higher levels as quickly as possible.

    But Ji Yuan did not turn up.

    They were beginning to worry that something had happened to Ji Yuan.

    After all, they could see the angry stares by the cultivators from the Fire Faction that was directed at him.

    Ji Yuan had really made his Fire Faction looked like clowns, apparently.

    They were intently looking and waiting for Ji Yuan''s number to be called.

    "Combatant number 6316 versus 44 444."

    44 444!

    A most easy to remember number.

    This number had belonged to none other than Ji Yuan!

    Immediately many of the spectors were chucking loudly when they recalled Ji Yuan.

    With such an easy to remember number, everyone could naturally remember it. Moreover after Ji Yuan''sst match had ended, many of the cultivators from the other factions were gossiping about number 44 444 and a na?ve cultivator by the name of Ji Yuan that had advised them to spar bloodlessly.

    Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were also among the spectors; they had also quickly gotten their second wings so that they could watch Ji Yuan in the battle arena.

    Even Mo Bei was in the spector stand as well.

    Just as the thousands of cultivators from the three opposing factions wereughing jovially at the announcement of 44 444, the spectors from the Fire Faction had suddenly exploded into thunderous apud and more than half of them were suddenly standing up and yelling like crazy.

    The jovialughter from the other three factions werepletely drowned by the thunderous apud from the Fire Faction.

    And it seemed that there were more cultivators from the Fire Faction than the other three factions too as though they had all turned up in full force.

    The cultivators from the three factions were startled; what was going on? Aren''t these cultivators from the Fire Faction mad at 44 444 just 2 days ago?!

    Number 6316 was a cultivator from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. When he had heard the number 44 444, he was chucking aloud as he appeared.

    Naturally he knew who his opponent was; he was that na?ve cultivator Ji Yuan and his number is 44 444.

    But when Ji Yuan had appeared inside the battle arena, there were thunderous apuds from the Fire Faction and they seemed to go berserk as many of them were now shouting madly;

    "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan!"

    "The God of Songs!"

    "The God of Songs Ji Yuan!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were stunned and bewildered; what was going on around here?!

    Isn''t Ji Yuan the target of his own angry faction just two days ago?!

    And why were they calling him the God of Songs Ji Yuan?

    Ji Yuanughed as he introduced himself to his opponent 6316, "I''m Ji¡­"

    "No need. I know who you are." His opponent wasughing. "You''re just a clown in my eyes."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am Yan Kun, a saint cultivator from the Nine Celestial Fraternity." Yan Kun smiled coldly. "And I am from the¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him with a frown. "No need. I''ve no interest to know."

    Yan Kun shed a grin as he shed his heaven-step divine sword. "This is my divine sword. Do you have one?"

    As he disyed his heaven-step divine sword, he had also revealed his profound animus; his profound aura immediately pronounced him as a heaven-step saint (initial saint).

    Immediately many of the cultivators from the other factions were thinking that Ji Yuan was going to be dead soon because this Yan Kun seemed to possess a powerful profound defense; he seemed to have an extreme powerful internal and external profound art as well.

    Yan Kun lifted his head proudly with a cold smirk, "Even if you''re a great saint, you have no chance against my Supreme Tied Divine Force."

    As he said that, multiple ripple of shockwave could be felt by Ji Yuan that was encircling Yan Kun.

    Ji Yuan immediately understood that this Yan Kun was not lying to him and he was indeed very formidable.

    Yan Kun was obviously looking down upon Ji Yuan who looked as poor as hell and he had good reasons.

    "With my Supreme Tied Divine Force and my heaven-step divine sword, my profound power is more than a great saint. This is enough to deal with a sword cultivator like you. Even if you''re a great saint¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "You want to say that even if I am a great saint, I am not your match, am I right?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were thinking: Is Ji Yuan going to try to show off his saintly divine sword again?

    But Ji Yuan raised his sword fingers and said, "I will like to see how my fingerspare to your divine sword then."

    Ji Yuan did not want to use his divine sword because he wanted to keep it as his trump card.

    So he had released his puny profound aura instead.<sub> </sub>

    Even though his profound aura was puny but many of the cultivators, including those from the Fire Faction were also startled; it was because Ji Yuan had disyed all his profound strength and had revealed himself as a peaked great saint, the highest cultivation realm.

    Yan Kun waspletely speechless as he cursed silently; why is a damn peaked great saint doing in the trial? And he looks so young without any grey hair¡­

    But he was soon thinking; this is not only a physical fight but a psychology fight as well. He is just trying to overwhelm me with his superior cultivation realm but in reality, he did not have any power profound art to back him up. This is my advantage¡­

    Yan Yun smirked coldly, "Is that all that you can manage?"

    All of a sudden there was a glow on Ji Yuan''s forehead as he revealed his sword spirit; immediately the strength of the sword energies in his sword fingers had increased tremendous.

    Yan Kun was startled, "So your spirit entity is a sword spirit?"

    Ji Yuan replied, "That''s right."

    But Yan Kunughed as his profound aura immediately formed into a nine headed golden hydra with the profound animus strength of a seventh rank spirit entity.

    All the cultivators were now looking excitingly at the forting fight between Yan Kun and Ji Yuan.

    In a sh, the two of them were now disying their profound powers against each other as they raised dozens of sword stances against each other.

    Yan Kun was suddenly startled as he could feel the chilling sword energies that were being disyed by Ji Yuan; he had never seen sword energies that are so deadly before.

    All of a sudden he realized that Ji Yuan had a higher swordy art than him.

    After exchanging a few dozen strokes, Yan Kun was inhaling heavily while Ji Yuan was still fresh.

    In fact Ji Yuan was still grinning and he did not seem to be in a great hurry.

    This time Yan Kun was beginning to be panicky; it was because his profound strength was draining very fast, both from using his divine sword and from his powerful power profound art.

    Although his power profound art was powerful and was aided by the use of his divine sword but Ji Yuan could parry off his strokes just by using his sword fingers.

    The vicinity around them was exploding with his powerful martial profound force and the deadly sword energies that were being unleashed by Ji Yuan.

    Yan Kun said weakly, "Do you know that sword energies is almost futile against the profound defense of a power cultivator?"

    But Ji Yuan grinned as he continued to disy bursts after bursts of sword energies with his sword fingers at his opponent. "I know. Many have told me this."

    Most sword energies is weaker than the profound defense of a power cultivator but Ji Yuan could keep unleashing his puny sword energies bursts to weaken the profound aura of his opponent.

    What Yan Kun could not understand was how on earth did Ji Yuan have the profound strength and energies to keep projecting sword energies at him¡­

    Ji Yuan''s already had an insane energy recovery due to his focus on energy recovery techniques coupled with the fact that he had a high spirit level.

    Plus he had a small breakthrough in his spirit core level two days ago just after he had yed his music in the hall.

    That was the reason why Ji Yuan did not appear yesterday to watch the battle that his beloved maidens were in.

    Instead he was cultivating hastily to stabilize his spirit core as his True Sacred Saint Profound Art advanced.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had an inspiration and his fingers seemed to burst forth with a sudden bright profound energies.

    As Yan Kun was fending off Ji Yuan at point-nk, he was startled by the sudden burst of profound energies that his divine sense could not detect just in time.

    When he could finally realized what was going on, a burst of white light that was extremely brilliant had suddenly struck him hard, causing him to be lifted up and exploded with several streaks of white light even in mid-air!

    Even Ji Yuan was startled!

    And so were all the spectors!

    Many of the spectors were gasping as they could sense a strong life-force energies that had suddenly emerged from Ji Yuan!

    "Life-force sword energies?!"

    "Is this Ji Yuan so crazy as to use life force energies?"

    "Or is he so desperate?"

    "He can just surrender¡­why did he have to gamble with his life?"

    Even Ling Feiyue was gasping, "Why is Ji Yuan so foolish?"

    All the maidens from Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all startled and were worried that something may have happened to Ji Yuan.

    Life-force energies can generate very powerful profound energies but more often than not, the cultivator that uses it may likely to their lives as well!

    Ji Yuan naturally did not want to gamble with his life and naturally he did not use his Sword of Destruction.

    But he had a sudden inspiration when he was using his sword spirit and had just released a small amount of his life-force energies to augment his sword energies attack.

    Somehow after his new breakthrough, he was now able to control the flow of his life force energies and was now able to tap into it to create a new devastating attack.

    In short he had just created a new profound sword art on his own!

    Ji Yuan was a master of profound energies control and after he had nearly lost his life after using the Sword of Destruction, he was now able to visualize and control his own life force to tap as life force energies.

    And just now he had an inspiration to tap into it by a guts feeling.

    And he had actually seeded without gambling his life away.

    Everyone was stunned that Ji Yuan had been so reckless and was so desperate to use a life force energies attack without a care for his life.

    Yan Kun coughed out golden blood as he banged his fists on the floor, "I¡­concede¡­Just my bad luck that I''ve met¡­such a reckless¡­cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha¡­I''ve won."

    "Don''t let me meet you again. I won''t let you win in our next battle." Yan Kun cursed weakly before he lost his consciousness.

    Yu Jingjing was nearly in tears, "Ji Yuan¡­he almost kills himself using a life force sword art¡­how foolish¡­"

 Chapter 288 The Battle Of The Wings (2)

    After Ji Yuan had defeated Yan Kun, he gained his cultivation resources as well as a heaven-step divine sword.

    He had also gained his third wing as well as 3 ughter points.

    It seemed that there was only 1 ughter point per wing except for the very first victory where he received 3 ughter points.

    And one bonus ughter point!

    "I have one more ughter point?"

    He quickly summoned his attendant to ask why it was so and as she answered it was because Yan Kun had a two time winning streak. Combatants would get bonus ughter points for breaking winning streaks depending on the number of streaks.

    "Haha. So I see. You''re dismissed now."

    The spirit serving maid: ¡­

    But Ji Yuan ignored her as he quickly exited the battle hall.

    He was cursing silently as he got hold of the divine sword: In the past, it is so hard to get even a heaven-step divine sword. In this trial, you can just take your opponents'' divine swords¡­

    He wasughing silently as he thought that there may be a chance for him to obtain several divine swords and he would once more restore the Orthodox Sword Sect to its former glory. Maybe he would even be the most respectable grandmaster in the entire history of the Orthodox Sword Sect!

    Xiang Li asked him curiously, "Big Brother, why are youughing to yourself? Share, share!"

    Ji Yuan shed augh, "Hahaha my adorable Xiang Li. We are going to be rich soon!"

    "Rich?" Xiang Li took a peep at the spatial ring that Ji Yuan was holding and frowned. "Is it?"

    Ji Yuan had quickly rushed from the battle hall as soon as he had teleported because he did not want anyone to follow him. All thebatants in the battle hall were from his faction so they would not follow him if they have an on-going match or else they would be forced to forfeit it.

    However there were also many simultaneous fights and these cultivators may decide to mob or follow him once their fights were over.

    Therefore Ji Yuan was running as though he was like a thief before he found himself a quiet spot in the Jade Mansion to count his winnings.

    He got a heaven-step divine sword, twenty-thousand high grade spirit stones and several so and so cultivation profound pills that he did not pay much attention to.

    He was soon grinning, "Xiang Li, we''re really rich! Haha."

    Xiang Li took a disinterested look at the contents of the spatial ring before she dozed off silently;pared to Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, these high grade spirit stones were too far little and the cultivation resources were too puny.

    "Twenty thousand high grade spirit stones! Do you know that this is the first time that I am holding so many spirit stones? Haha!"

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially. "Xiang Li, we are going to do some shopping now!"

    "Xiang Li?!"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he muttered. "She must be sleeping again. What azy Xiang Li¡­"

    So he walked to the Cultivation Wing Hall and he marched proudly to the third level. "Show me all your best cultivation resources on this floor. I am here!"

    Immediately several floating spirit entities were carrying beautiful boxes in their hands to show to Ji Yuan.

    "This is the Jade Emperor''s Ginseng. 1mil high grade spirit stones and 30 ughter points¡­"

    "Dragon Fire Stone. 500k high grade spirit stones and 10 ughter points¡­"

    "Heaven-step divine sword. 3mil high grade spirit stones and 50 ughter points¡­"

    "White Bourke Lotus. 2mil high grade spirit stones and 15 ughter points¡­"

    "Creamino Heavenly Lotus. 6mil high grade spirit stones and 70 ughter points¡­."

    And more¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Anything cheaper?" Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly. "These prices are all a rip off¡­"

    "Blood Rejuvenation Profound Pill. 100 000 high grade spirit stones and 8 ughter point¡­"

    "Rainbow Lutino Diamond. 250 000 high grade spirit stones and 12 ughter points¡­"

    "Jade Broli. 80k high grade spirit stones and 16 ughter points¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    "Is there anything cheaper than 20k high grade spirit stones or not?"

    The spirit serving attendants were allughing jovially before they showed Ji Yuan several items.

    Ji Yuan was stunned that that the minimum cost was 3000 high grade spirit stones.

    "What the heck¡­"

    All of a sudden he had spotted a round and slimy pill in a box. He asked curiously, "What are these pills?"

    The spirit serving attendant that was holding these pills smiled. "These are the Great Masculine Revitalize Pill."

    She winked at Ji Yuan before lowering her voice to say, "It is extremely good for men that are experiencing dysfunction issues. Even if you don''t have that issue but as you know, the higher cultivation is the cultivator, the harder it is for them to conceive. This Great Masculine Revitalize Pill is very useful for you to make a maiden feels that you''re a god."

    Ji Yuan wasughing sneakily, "Is it? Do I even need to use these pills? I don''t think that I have any issue at all."

    The spirit serving attendant smiled and added, "You will be like a god for the entire month. It is very good for your libido."

    "My libido?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not that I need these but what are the prices for these?"

    "Only four thousand high spirit stones and only 3 ughter points each. And moreover these are thest five on this level." The spirit serving attendant winked with a wry smile.

    "So cheap?" Ji Yuan chuckled. "You know. Since I''m here so it isn''t good that I go back empty handed, am I right? And moreover, you have been so helpful."

    "So how many of these pills do you need?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as heughed before handing twenty thousand high grade spirit stones. "Well, I have all then. I know that some of my friends are having a little problem with their bodies. Haha."

    "Alright. Here you go!"

    Ji Yuan was smiling gleefully. "I don''t need a box. Just pass to me quickly¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you''re here?" Feng Minyue had suddenly entered the hall and she was calling for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was so startled that he quickly grabbed the five Great Masculine Revitalize Pills and swallowed it all; he could not hide these pills into his spatial ring if not Feng Minyue would have detected his profound animus and thought that he was hiding something from her.

    This was something that he was trying to avoid so he did what he can do; he swallowed the pills quickly.

    "Maiden Feng, you''re here?" Ji Yuan asked bitterly.

    Feng Minyue was slightly rmed that Ji Yuan did not seem too happy to see her, "You do not wee me?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course not. I hope to see you every day."

    Feng Minyue averted her eyes shyly, "Is that so?"

    "Erm, you''re looking for me?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Feng Minyue nodded shyly, "I will like to invite you for a little drink. I have a rare wine form the Nine Celestial Fraternity and I thought of sharing it with you. Do you want to try it? I''ve thought of celebrating your victory. You really should not use the life force energies earlier. Many people will be worried for you if anything were to happen to you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Thank you for your concern. It is my great pleasure to drink with Maiden Feng. Haha."

    All of a sudden Feng Minyue was looking at Ji Yuan curiously, "You do not seem to look too well. You look a little strange today."

    Ji Yuanughed it off as he broke into cold sweat, "I am really fine. I had used up a lot of my profound strength earlier and is just tired. That is all. It''s nothing serious, really. Haha."

    "Really?" Feng Minyue looked at him curiously.

    "Of course I am! Haha." Ji Yuanughed as his eyes had suddenly be very sheepish.

    It was because he had just swallowed five of the Great Masculine Revitalize Pills and his libido was suddenly increasing madly at the wrong timing.

    He could naturally purge the effects of these Great Masculine Revitalize Pills from his body out but he could not do it without not letting Maiden Feng knows about it.

    Therefore he could only suck his thumb now.

    Even if he wanted to purge the effects of the Great Masculine Revitalize Pills from his body, he could not bear to see all the high grade spirit stones that he would be wasting.

    Therefore he decided to suck his thumb and endure his ballooning libido as he did not want to lose his face in front of Feng Minyue.

    In the meantime, Ji Yuan was not the only one that was experiencing the great libido; Xiang Li was suddenly aroused by the intoxicating libido that was in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. After all, the two of them were linked together through their soul sea¡­

    "Ji Yuan, are you alright? You are suddenly¡­staggering?"

    "I''m alright¡­I can still drink. Haha¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was thinking; oh gosh¡­shit¡­drowning wines, especially strong wines will only elerate these types of pills¡­

 Chapter 289 The Battle Of The Wings (3)

    Ji Yuan felt like a dumbass for swallowing the five Great Masculine Revitalize Pills at a single go. This Great Masculine Revitalize Pill can only be consumed once every month and will greatly increase the libido of the cultivator.

    Even a high level golden celestial will be affected by it.

    Even Ji Yuan had heard of it before.

    That was why Ji Yuan had been so delighted that he could actually find it in the trial.

    He did a good math; this Great Masculine Revitalize Pill is really rare in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and had a great demand.

    Imagine his great delight that it would only cost him only four thousand high grade spirit stones. He could definitely be able to sell it at ten times the purchase price, no doubt about it.

    For a desperate cultivator like Jin Yilong who had lost his little brother, this divine pill will worth a hundred times even because it can even restore their little brother in a short time.

    This is really the ''Miracle Pill of the Masculine Men''.

    He wasughing silently: of course I will keep one for myself. If it is not enough then I will keep another one. The rest I will sell it away. Feiyue, Little Princess, Sisi and Qianfeng will finally experience what is a godlike experience from me. Haha.

    However his perfect n had a sudden w; he had never expected Feng Minyue to have appeared all of a sudden.

    Now he had two options;

    One: To be a dumbass by swallowing all five of the Masculine Revitalize Pills and pretended that nothing had happened. In this way, he would not lose Feng Minyue''s favor and she would not think he was just a disgusting dirty old man who only thinks with his lower body.

    Two: To be an even more dumbass by allowing her to know what he was purchasing. Then he would lose all her good impression of him and he would also lose the chance to woo her.

    Naturally the choices were very obvious, right?

    Therefore between a dumbass and an even more dumbass, Ji Yuan had chosen to be a just a dumbass.

    But there was a little problem now as he walked with Feng Minyue to her room; his libido was now ballooning rapidly and he could not use his profound strength to purge the effects of the Great Masculine Revitalize Pill out.

    He could but there is no way he could do so without letting Feng Minyue knows.

    Moreover he had just spent twenty thousand high grade spirit stones on it so how would he wasted all of it by purging it from his body?

    Naturally he would not so therefore he had decided to suck his thumb and endured the burning hot lust of his body.

    Drugs like this would not be able to affect saints so much, much less than a great saint like Ji Yuan unless they allow it. However, because Ji Yuan now allowed it and he got such weak internal profound strength that he was now having a great difficulty in trying to suppress it.

    Moreover he was trying to suppress the effect of five such powerful masculine pills that were now acting upon his body now.

    Ji Yuan was in cold sweat now and he was using all his profound strength to suppress his lust.

    All of a sudden he was startled when Feng Minyue suggested going to her room.

    "Erm, we¡­are going to your room?" Ji Yuan blinked his eyes.

    Feng Minyue nodded shyly, "We can drink there in peace, am I right? Your room has so many daily visitors nowadays."

    "Why, you have a problem?"

    Ji Yuan''s willpower dropped drastically when he heard that he was going to step into Maiden Feng''s room. "Haha¡­no problem at all!"

    But silently, he was cursing this was not going to look too good. It was because he was now in the process of turning into a monstrous lustful beast and he was now fearing that he would be forcing himself on Maiden Feng; this would ruin all her good impression of him¡­

    I''m going to be screwed¡­I am now screwing myself with a maiden of my dreams¡­

    I am not going to be a god to her but a demon to her. Someone please help me¡­

    Which Cultivation MC would be in such a situation as him? No, they wouldn''t because these Cultivation MCs are always in a perfect situation and they would never be in such an untimely situation as he was.

    Not to mention that they are all so perfect that they would never be caught buying a masculine pill anyway¡­

    Maybe they are so perfect that they would not need any supplements except for cultivation resources¡­

    "We are here now." Feng Minyue had suddenly interrupted his thoughts as she activated the shimmering portal that led to her room.

    "Wee to my abode." She averted her eyes shyly as she said to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was in awe of Feng Minyue who was a stately maiden and of course, he knew that she was a great beauty behind her veil. As a matter of fact, she was once the most beautiful maiden in the Nine Celestial Fraternity until overtaken by Fan Yuqing and Ye Jing.

    As Ji Yuan entered into Feng Minyue''s room, he saw that it was tidy and was scented with her fragrance.

    This caused him to break into more cold sweat as he was trying very hard to suppress his exploding lusts.

    His wandering eyes were now looking at Feng Minyue''s butt and bosom now; he was nearly at a point of trying to literally tear apart her dress and tounch himself upon her like a wild beast¡­

    Feng Minyue had slowly removed her veil and her alluring features were even more stunning.

    This caused Ji Yuan to tremble as he gasped softly at her heavenly beauty¡­

    And also his heart was also beating very fast.<sub> </sub>

    Feng Minyue was really looking very shy because she had rarely unveiled herself in the presence of the others. Even though Ji Yuan was no stranger to her face but there was actually a meaning in this; this mean that she was now trusting Ji Yuan as her friend, even a personal friend now.

    And that was why she was also inviting him for a drink.

    She gently said as she took out a wine sk, "This is the wine that I''ve mentioned. I will like to toast this to you¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was not paying attention to her because he was feeling very hot and lustful now. It became all the more unbearable when he suddenly noticed that Xiang Li was moaning very loud in his soul sea.

    Xiang Li''s voice was extremely mesmerizing and soul snatching¡­

    He simply could not believe what he was hearing!

    And he immediately knew that he was the one that was causing it.

    He was almost at the brink of exploding now and he could even bang the wall with his little brother now or anything for that matter.

    The problem was, in front of him was an extremely alluring maiden and she was extremely beautiful. And there was also Xiang Li who was making an extremely mesmerizing voice of ecstasy.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Xiang Li was now having a wet dream of coupling with her Big Brother Ji Yuan and she was really very high now.

    Therefore before Feng Minyue could finish toasting Ji Yuan, he had suddenly bolted from her room!

    Feng Minyue was stunned and startled.

    She was suddenly trembling and her eyes were bleary, "He¡­isn''t interested in me¡­he is actually a gentleman¡­maybe in his eyes, I am the icy cold maiden¡­"

    "Maybe I am ying too hard to get and misunderstood that he is a lecherous cultivator. He is truely a gentleman and he is different from the other lecherous men." She averted her eyes mncholy.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan virtually had disappeared for a full day and he was not answering any calls in his room.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were extremely anxious as they did not know what had exactly happened and why would Ji Yuan not be a spector when he was not fighting?

    He was supposed to be concerned about his beloveds¡­

    Even Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were quite surprised that Ji Yuan was not around.

    Even his Patriarch Uncle Mo Bei was clueless where Ji Yuan was; it was as though he had suddenly disappeared.

    Feng Minyue was now ming herself: it must be my fault that Ji Yuan is not here. He must be angry with me or he is despising me in his heart¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was abatant and she was extremely impatient because Ji Yuan was not around.

    Her opponent was a cultivator from the Air Faction, the same faction as Shui Xisi while she was from the Earth Faction, the same faction as Little Princess.

    Her opponent was a saint cultivator and he was admiring her unearthly presence as he chuckled, "Maiden, why don''t you take off your veil for me to have a closer look at you? Then maybe I will be a little merciful toward you."

    "Only my man can take off my veil." Bai Qianfeng replied coldly.

    "Is it? Hehe! Then don''t me me for being harsh with youter. Let Big Brother here teach you how to behave in front¡­"

    All of a sudden the saint cultivator was gasping with shock.

    It was because Bai Qianfeng had suddenly thrown her contract pet dragon in front of her and it had suddenly metamorphed into a seventh rank profound deste dragon.

    This was her Yuanyuan and her giant form was filling the spatial space that was created within.

    The saint cultivator and many of the cultivators were stunned with disbelief!

    It was because even a great saint cultivator may not necessary defeat a seventh rank deste beast and moreover this was a profound deste mighty dragon.

    How in the Celestial Realm did she manage to get a seventh rank profound deste dragon to bond as her spirit beast?!

    The majority of the cultivators were rendered speechless.

    They really did not know that the Earth Faction had such a powerful cultivator!

    Or rather such a powerful profound deste dragon on their side!

    Bai Qianfeng said coldly, "Then don''t me me as well."

    The saint cultivator panicky shouted. "No, wait! I surrender¡­"

    The Trial Spirit promptly announced Bai Qianfeng''s number to be the winner.

 Chapter 290 The Battle Of The Wings (4)

    So where did Ji Yuan go?

    Naturally he had made a mad dash out Feng Minyue''s room because he could no longer suppress his lust.

    And he could not run back to his room either because there were always many cultivators that were visiting him.

    Therefore he quickly reserved a cultivation chamber while he could still suppress his bursting libido.

    "Give me a cultivation chamber!" Ji Yuan shouted panicky to the spirit attendant.

    "Which one?"

    "Any! It is very urgent!" Ji Yuan. "And put it on my tab first! I''ll settle itter!"

    "Alright, this way please." The spirit attendant smiled as she opened a shimmering portal for Ji Yuan. "You may use this portal or you may wish to explore the hallways of the Jade Mansion¡­"

    "I''ll take the portal!" Ji Yuan said with great urgency.

    "That will be an extra¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already rushed into the shimmering portal.

    The spirit attendant was slowly smirking; it was because she had reserved the most expensive cultivation chamber for Ji Yuan that would cost him a hundred thousand high grade spirit stone to use daily.

    "Such a generous client." She was smiling as she added a ''zero'' at the back for using the shimmering portal. "He didn''t ask me for the price of using the portal. So there, I give him a special jack up price for using it."

    Poor Ji Yuan, he did not know that he just got ripped off because he was too distraught to focus.

    In his poor mind now, he just wants to release his lust and to bang the wall.

    When Ji Yuan had reached the cultivation chamber, he was quite startled how splendid it was. It was more like a hall with a battle arena for the cultivators to pit against each other. It looked more like a battle stadium than a cultivation chamber.

    But he had no mood to appreciate any of the splendid in the cultivation chamber now.

    Because he had to do something about his exploding libido and he needed a big release now.

    "Xiang Li, I''m so sorry. Are you alright? This is all Big Brother''s fault¡­"

    All of a sudden he had frozen on the spot; in his soul sea, he could see that Xiang Li was already ''releasing'' herself and she had already stripped to nothing.

    He was gulping all of a sudden as he witnessed Xiang Li''s amorous body that seemed to have radiating a dangerous liaison with his golden eyes.

    Xiang Li, why don''t youe out of my soul sea and get into your physical body then we can go bang, bang together?

    No!!!

    That is a most evil thought that his inner demon is now telling him!

    With Xiang Li out of the picture, Ji Yuan''s inner demons had now taken over his heart.

    "No! Xiang Li is my best friend as well as my little sister. I can''t do this to her¡­"

    And he began to purge his inner demons out of his heart with his feeble willpower by reciting the Undying Fighting Spirit.

    But he was on the verge of exploding now¡­

    Since he could not bang Xiang Li, his next thought was to cut off his little brother to gain instant relief.

    Although his will was strong in cutting off his little brother but his body was weak.

    Therefore he decided to seek release instead.

    Then he happened to see a wooden horse in front of him.

    He muttered to himself, "Ji Yuan, you can''t be so perverted to do it with a wooden horse, am I right? Only parrots and dumb birds do this sort of thing¡­"

    "Or you can try to do self-release all by yourself¡­"

    "But Xiang Li may be watching you and you will lose all your manly vibes if she sees that you''re doing own self service¡­"

    "But she is also doing her own self-service¡­"

    "She is a different and she is a maiden but you are a true man¡­"

    Then he took a step toward the wooden horse¡­

    But all of a sudden Xiang Li had popped out from his soul sea and she was hugging Ji Yuan all of a sudden. "Big Brother¡­"

    Ji Yuan was so startled by a naked Xiang Li and moreover she was also in her physical form.

    As he had already loosened his robe and pant, the sight of Xiang Li had suddenly caused him to spray all over her¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But Xiang Li continued to hold tight onto Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, what¡­are¡­you¡­doing¡­to me¡­is this¡­a new game?"

    "Why is Xiang Li feeling so hot, so hot?"<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li was moaning sensually and she was trembling in Ji Yuan''s arms.

    But Ji Yuan was no longer of sane mind. The sight of Xiang Li hadpletely caused him to lose control.

    He was only a few steps away from the wooden horse so that he could quickly release his load out of sight away from Xiang Li.

    In his mind, he just wanted to vent his lust and to destroy any destructible things to regain his self-control.

    If there are any readers who happen to read this passage, surely they would not think that Ji Yuan is going to bang the wooden horse?

    Ji Yuan stammered with craziness, "Xiang Li¡­I¡­sorry¡­I¡­this¡­"

    Xiang Li wiped her face with her fingers as she said dreamily, "Big Brother, is this your white cream?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li¡­you''re too crude¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was releasing more and more because once he had lost control, it became uncontroble to suppress anymore.

    "Big Brother, I can¡­see you know. It is your thing that is shooting¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you''re having delusions now¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was holding onto Xiang Li and he was burning hot.

    "Xiang Li¡­close your eyes and pretend to be a wooden horse¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    The next day, Ji Yuan was at the battle arena.

    All the maidens that known him was really d to see him.

    At least they know that he was alright after using his life force energies sword.

    But Ji Yuan was looking very pale.

    And all of a sudden even before the fight between him and his opponent had started, Ji Yuan was already bleeding from his nose!

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all startled to see that Ji Yuan''s nose was dripping with golden blood nonstop.

    And as Ji Yuan went on to rub his nose, more golden blood spurted out of his nose!

    It was a horrifying sight!

    Everyone was startled and some were even smiling; it was obvious to them that this must be the side effect from using the life force energies and Ji Yuan must be suffering from the adverse effect, no doubt.

    "He must have suffered serious internal injuries¡­"

    "Look, he is so pale. He must be so weak today¡­"

    "It seems that today Ji Yuan''s winning streak will be over today¡­"

    "This is the foolish price for using the life force energies¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan will surely be loser today¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly brandished his heaven-step divine sword and without saying a word, he had unleashed his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    And he had instantly overpowered his opponent with a beautiful sword energy wave that was like a white coiling dragon!

    The profound power of Ji Yuan''s sword profound art immediately startled the entire battle arena!

    Only the maidens that were closed to Ji Yuan knew that this was not even Ji Yuan''s best sword profound art. He had a Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as his trump card, a sword art that could even vanquished a peaked great saint if it were to hit.

    But strangely, Ji Yuan did not even say a single word when he had won.

    Indeed, he disappeared as silently as he had appeared, all without saying a single word!

    This was all too strange!

    Because Ji Yuan was known to be talkative!

    Feng Minyue was gasping silently: what happens? Is he angry with me? It''s my entire fault. I should have paid more attention to his health. Instead, I am so insensitive to want to offer him a drink. He must really be so upset with me now and did not want to show it. Ji Yuan, I am so sorry¡­"

 Chapter 291 The Battle Of The Wings (5)

    Ji Yuan had naturally run back to the cultivation chamber immediately.

    The very reason why he was nose-bleeding was because he had a big libido that could not be suppressed by his profound strength.

    As he had a weak internal profound art, it was toote to do anything now but to suck his thumb as he endured it.

    One Masculine Revitalize Pill could hold up a golden saint''s libido for a month and he had swallowed five.

    He was now burning with passions and he was trying desperately now to get rid of the effects.

    The main reason why he did not talk was because he was too weak to talk and he was using all his profound strength to suppress his urges in front of everyone in the battle arena.

    Can you imagine if Ji Yuan were to spray all over in the battle arena in front of everyone, including his beloved maidens?

    And he knew that Feng Minyue was also watching him.

    Therefore he could only finish the fight quickly and returned to the cultivation chamber to finish his unfinished business.

    When he had reached the cultivation chamber, Xiang Li was moaning very hard on a bed. "Big Brother¡­Big Brother¡­where are you¡­"

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly when he saw Xiang Li again.

    Luckily for him, Xiang Li was a special spirit entity that could leave his soul sea. Therefore he had left her in the cultivation chamber to recuperate.

    "Xiang Li, I''m sorry¡­" Ji Yuan could only shake his head regretfully. It was because he had caused Xiang Li to be in this state when his soul sea was filled with his great libido.

    He began to sigh regretfully¡­

    Yesterday, he had been afflicted with great libido and was on the verge of exploding, especially when he saw Xiang Li.

    Or rather he had already exploded and had covered her with his manly vibes.

    He was stunned by what he had done.

    "Xiang Li, please pretend to be a wooden horse and pretend that nothing like this has ever happened before or both our reputation will bepletely ruined."

    He panicky tried to push Xiang Li away but because Xiang Li was covered by his slippery stuff but instead he had slipped on his own slippery stuff on the floor plus Xiang Li was also slippery.

    So he ended up falling into Xiang Li as they fall down together with their lips pressing onto each other.

    "Big¡­brother¡­you are kissing me¡­" Xiang Li muttered in a daze.

    "No, this is¡­an ident¡­" Ji Yuan quickly protested immediately but he was quickly interrupted by Xiang Li who was kissing him passionately.

    "Big Brother, I love¡­you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was about to push Xiang Li away when his libido had just exploded again, covering Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I really don''t mean it¡­"

    "Xiang Li, wake up from your senses¡­"

    "She ispletely intoxicated by my soul sea¡­"

    "Oh crap¡­I don''t have this experience before¡­this is my first time¡­"

    "And also her first time¡­"

    "What am I thinking?!"

    "I need to do something¡­"

    Just as he was about to push Xiang Li away again, his lust was awakened.

    "I can''t believe that I''ve such a big reaction with Xiang Li¡­she is my little sister¡­"

    In the end he had no other choice but to use Xiang Li as his object of fascination as he tried to jerk off the effect of the Masculine Revitalize Pills.

    He said gently to Xiang Li, "Xiang Li, you ought to do the same as me as well. This time the two of us are screwed."

    And so the two of them spent the whole day and night jerking off in close proximity.

    Xiang Li''s moaning aided Ji Yuan to quickly stabilized his condition and after a day, he could finally move again just in time for his next fight.

    But his libido was recharging at a rapid rate.

    That was why he wanted to quickly finish his fight with his opponent so that he could retreat to the cultivation chamber to continue on his ''treatment''.

    And so the two of them were just lying in close proximity as they lived in their fantasies.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Xiang Li, how can you do this whole day. Who are you fantasizing about?"

    Xiang smiled shyly, "Secret."

    "Haha¡­must be Qianfeng or Sisi, am I right?" Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    "What about you Big Brother?" Xiang Li asked shyly.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Secret as well." Naturally he could not tell her that he was masturbating with Xiang Li in his mind or else she would think he was really a most dirty old man.

    Actually Xiang Li was also fantasizing with Ji Yuan in her mind¡­

    "You know Xiang Li, this must be a secret between the two of us. No one in all the cultivation stories will be caught in this awkward situation as us. We mustn''t even mention it or else our good reputation will all be ruined. Is that clear?"

    Xiang Li giggled softly as she nodded lightly. "Alright¡­"

    "Alright. Then we carry on our treatment. It is lucky that I''ve you, really. Lucky you are able to turn into a physical body. With the two of us jerking off at the same time, the effect of these libido pills will quickly fade off soon enough."

    Ji Yuan added with augh, "Do you know that you''ve just saved my life because of this. Haha."

    But he turned solemnly all of a sudden. "Remember this! It is our great secret. Do not ever tell anyone about this!"

    Xiang Li giggled, "What if I don''t? You will kill me or bang me, Big Brother?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden he was speechless; he can''t kill Xiang Li because Xiang Li is linked to his soul sea. Killing Xiang Li is almost the same as killing himself by causing his cultivation strength to drop drastically.

    He also can''t bang Xiang Li because she is his little sister¡­

    He grew very solemn, "Xiang Li, you got to keep this a great secret because this concerns the fate of the Celestial Realm."

    Xiang Li was bewildered. "The fate of the Celestial Realm?"

    "That is right. The fate of the Celestial Realm hangs in the bnce. Why do you think that I will choose to swallow all five of these pills? Of course I know what I''m doing. Now it is the time to tell you. That is right. I''m actually doing this to save the Celestial Realm."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes as she pretended to give a willing to believe look but she was actually thinking; Big Brother really thinks I''m dumb. He didn''t know that I am ying dumb most of the time in front of him¡­

    Ji Yuan had never thought that while Xiang Li was young but she was after all a trial spirit and she was not as na?ve and innocence as she looked.

    But because Xiang Li had overheard his poem for Ling Feiyue and also because Ji Yuan was really the handsomest cultivator that she had ever seen therefore she pretended to be persuaded by him to join him for his ''fun'' adventure.

    Moreover she was also tired of seeing all the ugly beard cultivators in her trial and Ji Yuan was a refreshing air. She had never dreamed that there would be such a handsome beardless cultivator.

    She chuckled softly, "Yes, Big Brother is only doing this to save the Celestial Realm. Your Xiang Li will naturally be helping to keep this our great secret!"

    "Haha. Smart Xiang Li!"

    "Of course I am smart, Big Brother!"

    "Haha! But you are my most useless spirit entity and side kick so it is alright to be dumb." Ji Yuanughed.

    But Xiang Li did not answered him as she looked quietly at him; she had finally kissed her Big Brother now and the feeling was very good¡­

    -

    -<sub> </sub>

    -

    It was now time for Little Princess to fight her battle.

    After witnessing Ji Yuan acting so weirdly, she had lost her usual jovial and casual mood.

    So when she saw her opponent, she had immediately unsheathed her heaven-step divine sword and disyed her status as a great saintess.

    Just as her opponent was still startled that he was up against a great saintess, he was even startled that Little Princess had formed into a golden bright halo around her.

    He was startled!

    And so were everyone!

    It was because it was the mystical golden core that he was witnessing now!

    He had never seen it before but he could sense the profound power of the golden core that his opponent was radiating!

    With a bitter smile, he muttered. "I¡­concede¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Now it was time for Shui Xisi to fight.

    She had stepped down from the spector stand after Little Princess had her fight.

    As though it had been agreed upon, these maidens were taking turns to have their fights in the battle arena.

    Shui Xisi was also in no mood as her mind was only filled with Ji Yuan.

    Her opponentughed when he saw that Shui Xisi only had a whip and her whip was just an ordinary high quality grade.

    "You want to use a whip against my divine sword? Hahahaha. Maiden, why don''t Big Brother here teaches you a lesson or two about life, especially when Iy my hands on you."

    Shui Xisi had suddenly disyed her profound aura with a strong burst of shockwave and she had immediately startled everyone; she was a power cultivator with a strong profound animus and she was also a peaked great saintess!

    "What the heck! A peaked great saintess will be here?!"

    "Maybe she is here for the profound treasures?"

    "His opponent''s ass is now going to be kicked for offending a peaked great saintess¡­"

    Shui Xisi answered unhappily to her opponent, "If something happens to him, I''m going to torture you to the death!"

    Her opponent was startled, "What happens to him? Who is he? What has it got to do with me?"

    But Shui Xisi answered. "The reason why I''m using a whip is because you''re not going to be defeated so easily by it. Let''s have some fun for the next one hour."

    Her opponent stammered. "You¡­are a¡­sadist¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    It was now time for Ling Feiyue turn to fight in the battle arena.

    She brandished her heavenly-step divine sword and through her divine sword, it was revealed that she was a great saintess.

    Her opponent was not weak and was also a great saint with a heaven-step divine sword as well.

    It was a battle of two worthy opponents!

    Her opponent was smirking. "Not bad¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ling Feiyue''s sword spirit had lit from her forehead, as her profound animus had suddenly increased tremendous before consuming upon itself to form into hundreds of circr sword afterimages that were raining upon her opponent!

    She had unleashed her Thousand Raining Swords of her Flying Spirit Sword Art.

    Her opponent was startled that his opponent was actually such a powerful sword cultivator with a sword spirit that he immediately counter-attacked with his sword profound art as well.

    Although Ling Feiyue''s Thousand Raining Swords were extremely powerful and caused many of the cultivators to be in awe of her but her opponent was not weak either.

    Inhaling heavily after dismantling her sword profound art with his profound arts, her opponent smiled. "Not bad at all. But I am an expert in sword art too and I''m also a power cultivator. Therefore if you are merely a sword cultivator then I''m afraid that you will be at an disadvantage."

    He added with a wryly smile. "So why don''t we exchange greeting first?"

    But Ling Feiyue hummed coldly. "No need. Because you are just a loser and I''m an unorthodox cultivator."

    All of a sudden her opponent and many of the spectors were all gasping; it was because Ling Feiyue''s golden animus was suddenly retracting into just a bright dark outline around her.

    This did not mean that Ling Feiyue''s profound strength and profound animus were weakening but on the contrary, she was condensing all her internal profound strength into her attack.

    "You''re an internal profound art cultivator?" Her opponent was gasping.

    He had not expected that his opponent would still be able to enhance the profound power of her sword art through her internal profound strength. He was already inhaling heavily after dismantling her earlier sword art.

    Internal profound art cultivators are one of the most tricky cultivators to be dealt with, especially the high level ones. It was because they have extremely deadly strikes and it was difficult to exhaust their stamina as they have almost perfect control of their heart beats.

    Moreover he was seeing a new type of profound internal art that he had never seen before, one that could condense many times of the usual profound strength.

    Her opponent coolly analyzed. "An attack type cultivator. But your defense may not necessary hold well. I am a speed cultivator¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ling Feiyue had calmly shed to him and he could feel her profound power that was radiating around her.

    He was astonished by her reflexes but the most startling thing to him was that he had suddenly noticed that there was another dark golden circle that was radiating from her soul sea.

    "You¡­are¡­also¡­a¡­.golden core cultivator¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had raised her fingers to send him flying off. "Today I shall let you witness my newly attained level of my Six Realms Divine Art."

    It was a one-sided massacre even though her opponent was also a great saint.

    Many of the spectors were gasping in awe:

    "She is the second golden core cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity now¡­"

    "She is so strong¡­"

    "She is from the Water Faction¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    When ites to Bai Qianfeng turn to fight, her opponent had immediately surrendered.

    It was because her opponent already knew that she had a seventh rank deste profound dragon as her spirit pet.

    Her opponent was not going to fight a peaked great saintess and a seventh rank deste profound dragon at the same time. This was suicide!

    "This maiden should be banned¡­"

    "She is obviously cheating with this spirit pet of hers¡­"

    "But spirit pets and spirit entities are allowed¡­"

    Many of the cultivators from the Fire Faction were now shaking their head; their opponents from the other three factions were all so strong¡­

    "We have Maiden Feng Minyue and that Long Bearded Mo Bei. They are quite strong as well¡­"

    "But the other factions have more expert cultivators than us¡­"

    "I am sure even our side Ji Yuan will not be able to defeat that maiden with the seventh rank profound deste dragon¡­"

    "Now that you mention it, I dare not even fight in the battle arena now¡­"

 Chapter 292 The Battle Of The Wings (6)

    When Ji Yuan had appeared in the battle arena again, he was looking extremely pale and it was obvious to everyone that he was looking much thinner than before.

    Even his handsome cheeks also had a skeleton look.

    In just  a matter of a few days, Ji Yuan''s handsome and beautiful look had lost his usual charm even though he still looked beautiful in the eyes of many maidens.

    Many of the maidens from the four factions were beginning to feel a little heartache for him.

    Although the maidens from the other three factions did not really know who Ji Yuan was except for his ID number 44444 but Ji Yuan was still able to catch their attentions.

    Ji Yuan had a drowsy look on him but today he was finally well enough to suppress his libido and Xiang Li was also back into his soul sea.

    Without Xiang Li''s help, it would take him a far longer time.

    He was now cursing over the loss of the twenty thousand high grade spirit stones and he was dead broke again except for a heaven-step divine sword.

    As for thest battle he had won, he ended up cursing that cultivator for his spatial ring actually had nothing at all!

    He was even poorer than Ji Yuan!

    After spending several days doing non-stop masturbating, his legs were as weak as jelly.

    In fact he had a sudden trip when he had first appeared in the battle arena as he fell t on the ground!

    p It was because his legs were as weak as jelly!</anda>

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all gasping with shock; they all knew that Ji Yuan must be suffering from the ill-effect of using the life force energies sword and could guess that he must have expended much of his life force energies away.

    That was why he could not even stand properly!

    That was also the conclusion of all the spectors in the battle arena.

    After all, that was a heavy price to be paid after using the forbidden life force energies of the cultivator.

    It broke the hearts of many maidens when they saw Ji Yuan was in this state.

    But this is the life of the cultivator. In order to ovee the trials and the odds of ascension, they had to throw away even their lives.

    Even the men from the other three faction who disliked Ji Yuan because he was simply too handsome, had a grudging respect for him. He was indeed worthy of their respect because he was willing to throw away his life in order to win.

    Ji Yuan''s opponent was Chu Ren the Charming Cultivator from the Water Faction, the same faction was Ling Feiyue.

    Chu Ren had naturally recognized Ji Yuan; after all, they had already met outside the trial.

    At that time many of the cultivators, including him were all mocking at Ji Yuan because he was a beardless cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    But today he raised his right thumb up at Ji Yuan because Ji Yuan was a fighter and should be admired for staking his life to ovee his opponent.

    He was ording Ji Yuan this respect not because Ji Yuan was a formidable fighter but he could tell that Ji Yuan was in no condition to fight today.

    An opponent that could not even stand properly while looking so pale would not be able to defeat him.

    Moreover he could also tell that Ji Yuan''s profound animus was terribly weak and was fluctuating wildly to even maintain his already weak profound defense.

    "Why don''t you surrender instead?" Chu Ren suggested as he shed his heaven-step divine sword. "Even with a heaven-step divine sword in your hand, you won''t be my match. It is nothing shameful to concede and you can live to fight another day. After all, you are up against a great saint."

    "What you need to do now is to recuperate your strength first, am I right to say so?" He added with a charming smile.

    His smiling was really charming and many of the maidens were smiling at him as well; he was indeed worthy to be called the Charming Cultivator.

    "What if I say no?" Ji Yuan said weakly as he raised his heavenly-step divine sword.

    It was a battle between two charming cultivators but today Ji Yuan appeared to becking because he was looking extremely frail.

    A battle between two great saints was not to be missed and there were many eyes that were now shifting from the otherbatants to Ji Yuan and Chu Ren now.

    All of a sudden there was a rainbow halo around Chu Ren''s divine sword as the spectors gasped. "He has divine harmonized with his divine sword! This Ji Yuan is not going to win now."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and looked at his divine sword. Indeed this divine sword was taken from another cultivator and he could not divine harmonized with it.

    But he swung his divine sword forth with his sword spirit burning brightly on his forehead before saying. "So what are you waiting?"<sub> </sub>

    Chu Ren smiled charmingly as he shed in front of Ji Yuan. "100 strokes. In less than one hundred strokes, I will make you fall t on the ground¡­"

    Ji Yuan lifted his divine sword upward with his left hand as several brilliant res of life force energies had once again lit up and he hadpletely neutralized Chu Ren''s profound sword art!

    Chu Ren was immediately lifted up and he was screaming aloud in pain before he copsed with severe injuries on his golden body on the ground!

    Ji Yuan had only taken one sword stroke!

    And he had once again used his life force energies sword art!

    Everyone was startled:

    "This Ji Yuan can still use his life force sword energies?!"

    "Is he crazy?"

    "This is madness?"

    "He is throwing away his life even at his weakened state?!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all almost moved to tears when they saw Ji Yuan had just used his life force energies sword art again.

    They would rather Ji Yuan surrender the fight and to live to fight for another day!

    Chu Ren gasped as he stood up again weakly, "This is still not enough to take me out. You shouldn''t be able to use another profound sword art again. Once a cultivator uses his life force as a profound art, he will be immobilized for some time. Therefore¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly unleashed his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon which sped like a lightning bolt and had struck Chu Ren violently as he was sent flying backward against the invisible wall with a thunderous impact!

    This time Chu Ren fell down on his beautiful face and he had lost his consciousness.

    Ji Yuan said slowly. "You talk too much, seriously."

    All the spectors were stunned that Ji Yuan was still able to use a profound sword art after using his life force energies as a profound art.

    "This¡­"

    "Impossible!"

    "What is he made of?"

    "Chu Ren has lost?!"

    The Trial Spirit announced. "44444 have won the fight and he will now obtain one more battle wing."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all looking a little bewildered when Ji Yuan had won the fight.

    They just could not understand how Ji Yuan still had the inner profound strength to use another life force energies sword art and he had also used an extremely demanding profound art immediately after it.

    But nevertheless, they were looking quite relieved.

    At the Fire Faction''s side, many of the cultivators were screaming and pping thunderously; it was because Chu Ren was a most formidable cultivator and he had taken down quite a few of the strongest cultivator around.

    The pride and morale of the Fire Faction was immediately bolstered while the other three factions were speechless with disbelief.

    Many of them were now trying to convince one another:

    "Maybe he will die of exhaustion after this¡­"

    "Maybe he is just holding onto his dear life¡­"

    "I don''t think he can ever use another life force energies sword again¡­"

    "The next time this Ji Yuan will appear in the battle arena, he will surely be looking like a ghost¡­"

    "He is just lucky only¡­"

    As Ji Yuan disappeared from the battle arena, he was thinking. "It seems that I''m getting better and better with using my life force energies as my profound art now. The next time that I will appear in the battle arena, I will surely be able to regain my form. Now to count my winnings. This Chu Ren must be damn rich!"

 Chapter 293 I Cannot Be Tricked

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted when he saw that he had a 100,000 high grade spirit stones now. This Chu Ren was really a rich cultivator!

    Not only did he obtain a 100,000 high grade spirit stones but he had also obtained one additional heaven-step divine sword, among many other cultivation resources.

    However he was not delighted.

    Because this heaven-step divine sword was bonded to Chu Ren and he knew that it would pain him to lose his divine sword. After all, a cultivator may need a long time to divine harmonize with his divine sword. More often than not, it would not.

    If a cultivator manages to divine harmonize with his divine sword, it shows the affinity and the strong bond between sword and cultivator.

    He could already imagine himself losing his personal divine sword. The reason why he had divine harmonized with his divine sword was because it was from Jiajia and he treated his divine sword as part of his soul.

    At the same time he had also a double divine harmonized with it because of Xiang Li; she was after all using his divine sword as her incubator when they had first met.

    When he had thought of Xiang Li, he muttered. "This is too sinful. I can''t believe that the two of us just engage in such horrifying self-service in such close proximity without a sense of shame in the world. After I''ve recovered, I ought to talk to Xiang Li to forget about this incidentpletely and to tell her never to bring this matter up again."

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen on the spot.

    It was because he had suddenly realized that he did not have Chu Ren''s divine sword at all!

    What was going on?

    WHERE IS MY EXTRA HEAVEN-STEP DIVINE SWORD?!!!

    So he prompted summoned his spirit serving attendant to ask, "This must be a mistake, am I right? Where is my divine sword that I''ve obtained from Chu Ren?!"

    The spirit serving attendant giggled softly, "Don''t you know that once a divine sword is divine harmonized, it is bonded to the cultivator''s soul sea. Just like spirit entities and contracted spirit pets, these cannot be counted as your winning unless of course you can manage to kill the other cultivator. Don''t you know the rules?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "No¡­"

    But his golden eyes were soon rolling with a naughty look as he thought; so my saint-step divine sword cannot be removed from me, am I right? Hohoho¡­

    He began to grin broadly, "You''re dismissed and don''t follow me."

    The spirit serving attendant replied, "I''ve to remind you that you still owe the trial for the use of the cultivation practice chamber. There will be a daily of 10% interest for each day that you''ve owe us. And it had been almost five days now¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed it off, "Why? You think that I cannot pay you? Listen, I am a rich young master now. Haha. So don''t worry about this at all. I''ll settle it at the end of the day."

    The spirit serving attendant seemed to smile, "Alright then. This is just a friendly reminder."

    Ji Yuan continued tough as he walked away.

    The trial spirit must be joking with him. He could not pay his debts? He is rich now!

    He began to rub his chin as heughed silently again; in all the cultivation stories, there are no MCs that will listen to a third POV urging them to pay up because they will always end up embarrassing themselves due to the MCs''s golden halo.

    And now Ji Yuan felt that he had the MC''s golden halo now because he was now feeling freaking rich with his 100,000 high grade spirit stones!

    He was finally a rich young master with the MC''s golden halo!

    As Ji Yuan walked away, the spirit serving attendant began to smirk sweetly, "I like to see how you''re going to pay the trial 700,000 high grade spirit stones. 200k is the interest. You''ve no idea how high is the interest around here."

    Ji Yuan was still in jovial mood as he sped past the hallway as he pulled over his hood; he was now too famous in the Fire Faction and he did not want anyone to notice him.

    Just as he was about to reach the cultivation hall of the Jade Mansion, a sweet and alluring voice had suddenly float to him. "Ji Yuan, where are you going?"

    He turned around and saw that it was Yu Jingjing. "Um?"

    Yu Jingjing had an almost bleary look in her golden eyes, "Do you know that I have been so anxious for you? Are you really alright?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "I¡­am¡­alright?"

    Why does she think that I am not alright?

    Yu Jingjing said quietly to him with a mncholy voice, "If you are in trouble and in need of any help, you can share with me. I will do anything to help you."

    Ji Yuan gulped as he stared at her buxom and ample figure before he looked down her exposed smooth thighs; I am alright except for this part but you won''t be able to help me¡­

    "Excuse me, I''m a little busy¡­" Ji Yuan said as he was about to walk away. Yu Jingjing''s figure was too sinful and he was beginning to lose control of himself.

    Xiang Li giggled inside his soul sea, "Maybe Big Brother wants to bang her in your room."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan immediately replied to her in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, even though we may be lecherous but we must have our own principles. Or else we are just scumbags that lust after every beautiful maiden."

    "What are we then?" Xiang Li asked innocently as she blinked her eyes.

    "Erm¡­" Xiang Li''s question had caught Ji Yuan by surprise as he stammered. "Well¡­we are scums but we are definitely not scumbags. Got it?"

    "Scumbags¡­scums¡­is there a difference?" Xiang Li asked.

    "Don''t disturb me for now, Xiang Li. Go y with yourself first." Then Ji Yuan quickly added. "And make sure you don''t let me hear your moaning sounds."

    "Ji Yuan?" Yu Jingjing asked when she saw that Ji Yuan seemed to be disorientated and was not focusing on her.

    She had once again shed in front of Ji Yuan to intercept him.

    p Ji Yuan smiled at her weakly as he felt that he was losing control the more that he was standing in front of her; her charms were really mesmerizing and he could imagine himself jumping upon her like a lusty wolf now. He could only beg her in his mind to quickly go away before he lost control of himself.</anda>

    "I''ve something to tell you." Yu Jingjing said firmly. "I can really help you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Help me for what?

    Yu Jingjing smiled when she saw that she got Ji Yuan''s attention. "I can help you to get back your beard. In the forbidden vault of my celestial sect, I have a special recipe that can help you to regrow your beard, even if you have lost it during your golden body transformation. This is an immortal recipe and you won''t find it anywhere else in the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "There must be a condition, am I right?"

    Yu Jingjing nodded shyly, "There is¡­" Her only condition was that Ji Yuan must look for her and married her as his consort.

    "You''ve toe to my celestial fraternity first."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes. Even though he wanted to get back his beard very much but this was obviously a ruse and he was not going to fall for it.

    Although Yu Jingjing is a most beautiful maiden but he has no hope that she will fall in love with him and to share with him an immortal recipe. Surely he must have offended her somehow and he was not being too mindful about it.

    He knew that he was sometimes quite careless and with his words and actions so naturally it must be it.

    Therefore he could only smile, "Your celestial sect, is an all-female sect am I right?"

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "Naturally it is. I am the Holy Oracle Priestess. In my celestial sect the Holy Oracle Sect, there are only maidens there. So I hope that you can make a trip to the Endless Celestial Fraternity to convince my elders to give you the recipe. I can draw you a map. The way there may be treacherous but¡­"

    "No thanks." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    Yu Jingjing looked a little startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly said a firm no to her.

    While Ji Yuan would do anything to get back his beautiful beard but this trick had already been used by Xue Qianxue on him before.

    The same trick cannot be used twice on Ji Yuan because he was not dumb enough to fall for the same trick a second time.

    That was why he had said a firm no after Yu Jingjing had told him that her celestial sect is an all-female celestial sect.

    She is really too young, too simple. If she wants to trick him then she still has to wait for another 10,000 years but not using this same old trick.

    Yu Jingjing looked mncholy. She was actually testing his resolve for her. If he was willing to make the trip to the Endless Celestial Fraternity to look for her then she would be convinced that he was interested in her and her heart would be moved.

    But Ji Yuan had said no to her immediately.

    He really has backbone. He is not willing to bend his back for anyone even though I''ve the immortal recipe to help him to regrow his beard back¡­

    Yu Jingjing could only heave a soft mncholy sigh; in her celestial sect, there is the one and only immortal recipe that could help men and women to regain back their pubic hair¡­

    All of a sudden Yu Jingjing gasped aloud as she suddenly pointed at the bulge that was below Ji Yuan; his lower part suddenly had a wet patch.

    Ji Yuan was startled too as he had suddenly lost control after staring at Yu Jingjing. The masculine profound pills that he had taken were simply too powerful.

    He stammered panicky, "I need to go now."

    And he quickly sped off with great awkwardness.

    Yu Jingjing was greatly flustered by what she was seeing.

    But she was soon giggling softly, "He likes me or else he won''t have such a big reaction after looking at me. He doesn''t need to be so awkward over it because we aren''t kids. If he likes me then he should just let me know directly instead. I can help him to calm his passions down¡­"

    With another smile, "He only rejects my offer to help because he is so shy and not because he isn''t interested in me. If he is not interested in me, he won''t have this reaction¡­"

 Chapter 294 More Surprises (1)

    At the end of the day, Ji Yuan had finally suppressed the effects of the masculine pills but his legs were still feeling jelly.

    But he was also delighted because finally was the day he could finally end his seclusion. His first thought was of course to look for Feng Minyue to apologize for his ''rude'' behavior the day before.

    He was still anxious that he had already screwed up her impression of him.

    "I''m here to settle my bills." He casually said to the spirit steward in charge of the cultivation practice chamber. "And hurry up."

    He generous took out a thousand high grade spirit stones with a grin. "And keep the change."

    Even though a thousand high grade spirit stones were a lot but he still has 99,000 high grade spirit stones. Therefore this is just small change to him.

    "I''m afraid that this isn''t enough." The spirit steward said casually as he showed Ji Yuan the bill. "The total bill is 500,000 high grade spirit stones. However there are five days of interests so the total bill is 700,000 high grade spirit stones. Since you are a high prolific client of ours, this amount has already been discounted. So you still has to pay 699,000 high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What the heck is this?!! This bill is too outrageous! When did I ever agree to this?!"

    The spirit steward smiled. "You did."

    And he immediately showed Ji Yuan a memory stone that recorded their conversations.

    In the memory stone, Ji Yuan was in a great hurry and he literally said anything just to get a cultivation practice chamber so that he would not be disturbed by anyone.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What if I don''t pay up?" He began to smile bitterly.

    "Then you will owe us 5.8 million high grade spirit stones at the end of the trial. If you still refuse to pay up then the trial will forcefully take away your saintly divine sword."

    Ji Yuan smiled even more bitterly, "You even know that I''ve a saintly divine sword. But do you know that my saintly divine sword is priceless and it is worth more than 5.8 million high grade spirit stones."

    "But since you have nothing valuable to be used as payment then your saintly divine sword will do." The trial steward smiled. "Mind you, the trial has the ability to take away your possessions because when you have entered the trial, you are already bounded to it by a sacred contract."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    ? Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt like this world was suddenlying down.

    Overnight, he seemed to have lost everything¡­

    He was virtually bankrupted now¡­

    Life is so unfair to him¡­

    Good fortune did not favor him¡­

    He was now a born loser and also a beggar¡­

    His hopes of restoring the glory of his Orthodox Sword Sect were now over.

    "Xiang Li, we are poor again." He said to her in his soul sea.

    "It''s alright Big Brother." Xiang Li giggled. "Your consorts are all freaking rich."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You have any idea what you''re talking about Xiang Li? A man got to depend on himself and not on his women otherwise he is just a gigolo."<sub> </sub>

    "What is gigolo?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "A gigolo is someone that depends on a woman using his pretty face." Ji Yuan exined coolly.

    Xiang Li was suddenly giggling.

    "What is wrong?" Ji Yuan asked.

    "Nothing." Xiang Li continued to giggle; she had suddenly thought that her big brother was actually a gigolo because he really had a beautiful look.

    "I was just thinking that Big Brother still have twenty days to repay your debt. As long as we have one good win, we can repay your debt easily." Xiang Li pretended to say.

    Ji Yuan pped his hands. "That''s right! We still have twenty days. Haha."

    Then he said firmly to the spirit steward. "I still have twenty days to repay the debt. Good bye for now."

    As he was about to leave, the spirit steward suddenly said. "Wait a minute. I''ve a gift for you."

    Ji Yuan was startled. "A gift for me?"

    The spirit steward nodded. "You''ve spent the most in the trial so the trial is rewarding you with a special gift in return for your generosity."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The spirit steward took out a round sphere and said. "This is the Trial Viewing Sphere. You may only use it once to view the status of someone that is close to you in the trial. Itsts approximately five minutes. Please note that the viewing person must be someone that you know well or it won''t work."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he took the Trial Viewing Sphere. "It isn''t free. It cost me 700,000 high grade spirit stones."

    As Ji Yuan walked off, he began to mutter. "What is the use of this Trial Viewing Sphere? It is totally useless¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan thought of Guo Taiming who is his best friend.

    "I wonder if he is alright in the trial? After all, he is thest of my best friends¡­hopefully he is still alive¡­"

    So he began to rub and imbued his profound strength on the Trial Viewing Sphere.

    An image began to pop up and he soon saw Guo Taiming talking to two other cultivators.

    To his surprise, he had recognized the two cultivators; they are Shen Qin the Young Master of the Astonishing Sword Manor and Li Ye the Elder of his Emperor Hall Sect.

    "Why are they all together?!" Ji Yuan was perplexed. "And they seem to be hiding in a cave? Are they in danger or in the same trial?"

    Shen Qin was saying, "Hahaha, so we are all brothers to Big Brother Ji Yuan so therefore we should stay here and wait until the end of the trial."

    Guo Taiming was nodding, "True, true! It is too dangerous to be outside."

    Li Ye was frowning. "This isn''t a good idea, am I right? We are all golden celestials and we have a reputation to uphold. We should be taking the trials¡­"

    "Brother Li Ye, you are wrong." Guo Taimingughed. "Preserving our life is more important than anything else."

    "I agree with Brother Guo here." Shen Qin said. "As long as the others know that we are inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth then our reputation will be uphold. There is no need to take any risk."

    "We are here to take the trials so that we can obtain cultivation resources to advance in our cultivation realm." Li Ye pointed out.

    Shen Qin chuckled. "I am a saint already so there is no need for us to be so eager or else too much haste will only need upon our downfall. Why don''t I give the two of you ten thousands high grade spirit stones each to be my protectors instead? I can also provide you with some other cultivation resources. So what do you think?"

    Li Ye and Guo Taiming were both gasping at the same time. "Ten thousand high grade spirit stones?! Are you serious?"

    Shen Qinughed. "Of course. This is but small change for me."

    Guo Taiming tugged Li Ye. "You know. Only I know, he knows and we know. No one else will know."

    Li Ye slowly nodded as he looked at Shen Qin. "You promise?"

    Shen Qin smiled broadly, "Of course. I can even pay half of the promised amount first¡­"

    At this moment the image had suddenly vanished and Ji Yuan was left cursing. "I can''t believe that I''ve just witnessed their shady deals¡­it is only a mere ten thousand high grade spirit stones and they are selling away their pride¡­"

    But he was soon heaving with relief, "Brother Guo, don''t you die on me. Stay alive¡­"

    He was suddenly grinning, "Yeah, please don''t die so that I can ckmail you guys for half the amount. Shen Qin, you''re richer. Haha."

 Chapter 295 More Surprises (2)

    The next day, Ji Yuan had bumped into Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing at the same time.

    He had thought that Feng Minyue would be upset with him but to his surprise, she was actually quite amicable toward him.

    "Is this the calm before the storm?" He could not help thinking over it.

    He had thought that even Yu Jingjing would be giving him a p or two after he had lost control in front of her but to his surprise, Yu Jingjing was actually quite amicable toward him as well.

    After a while he began to calm down even though he could not help feeling suspicious about their ''intentions''.

    It was as though nothing had happened earlier.

    All they asked were, "Are you really alright? You shouldn''t have used your life force energies. It is harmful to your life force."

    He replied awkwardly, "I''m actually alright. Don''t you worry about that or me."

    Yu Jingjing hummed softly, "All men like to put on a brave front because they value their faces more than their lives."

    Feng Minyue was also saying. "Pride is worth nothing. You can only live once. Just concede if you have to. You won''t lose your bonded divine sword."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; actually I am more concern about the debt that I''ve owed to the trial and I can''t borrow from anyone because I am a sword saint with my own pride. This is my debt and I ought to repay it on my own.

    But he said, "Let''s go to the battle arena to watch the fights between the cultivators first."

    Feng Minyue nodded as she knew that Ji Yuan had to show his face so that his beloved maidens would know that he was alright.

    While Ji Yuan was absented, his beloved maidens were throwing their little tantrums on the other cultivators, especially Shui Xisi.

    Only Ji Yuan was able to calm them down with his presence because he had a most important ce in their hearts.

    Indeed.

    When Ji Yuan had arrived in the battle arena, his beloved maidens had all put on a pleasant countenance and even Shui Xisi was quite merciful to her opponent.

    It was because Ji Yuan had regained most of his colors and was no longer looking quite frail.

    At the end of the day Ji Yuan was also pleased that his beloved maidens had all won their victories and had obtained their wings.

    As he watched their battles, he was sighing; they are not ruthless in their attacks enough. If their opponent is on par with them then they will not have such an easy fight. But weirdly, howe their opponents seem to be fearing them or is it because their opponents are all gentlemen that are just purposely giving way to the weaker sex?

    What Ji Yuan did not know is that his beloved maidens had been quite ruthless and bad tempered in their attacks just a few days ago.

    Ji Yuan said coolly. "Tomorrow I will show them my greatest."

    "Why don''t you take a few days of rest first?" Yu Jingjing immediately asked him. "Don''t force yourself to fight if you are unwell."

    "I''ve to agree with Maiden Yu." Feng Minyue nodded.

    "Haha. I''m actually well." Ji Yuan said firmly as he patted his chest to prove himself.

    But all of a sudden his nose was bleeding again and dripping blood.

    Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were both gasping with shock.<sub> </sub>

    Many of the cultivators from the Fire Faction who were following Ji Yuan with their eyes were also startled.

    "Ji Yuan is suffering from internal injuries for sure¡­"

    "It must be the result of using his life force energies as a gambit¡­"

    "His days may be numbered¡­"

    "But he is looking much better than previously¡­"

    "It is just the calmness before the storm. He looks alright only but only briefly before he willpletely sumb to his injuries¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he cleaned his blood from his face, "Trust me. I''m really alright. Haha¡­"

    He did not dare to tell anyone that it was all due to the masculine pills that he had taken and not because he was suffering from any internal injuries.

    All of a sudden he was quite startled to notice that Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were both holding his arms at the same time¡­

    In the Fire Faction, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were two of the most beautiful maidens.

    By now everyone had already known that Feng Minyue was an astonishing beauty because her veil had been torn off by her opponent in the battle arena just a few days ago.

    This caused Ji Yuan to be the envy of many of the cultivators from the Fire Faction.

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes and he did not know what to do all of a sudden¡­

    "Erm, this ce is a little crowded. Why don''t we take a little walk elsewhere?" Ji Yuan suggested awkwardly.

    "Anything you say." Both maidens said at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was truly startled; anything that I say? How about my room then?

    But instead he was saying, "Haha. Maybe we can find Senior Mo Bei or we can visit the Wing Cultivation Hall. What do you think?"

    Both maidens answered at the same time. "Anything you say."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''ve given them two options and they still reply me the same¡­and I didn''t even suggest any specific¡­howe they are so nice to me today? Didn''t I screw myself up badly?

    But Ji Yuan was smiling again as he thought with a wry smile; it is said that when a person is down on his fortunes, he will havedy luck instead. This seems to be so true. Haha¡­

    So he answered them. "Why don''t we just walk romantically around the Jade Mansion instead? As for Senior Mo Bei, he isn''t important. Haha."

    "Anything you say." Both maidens answered together with a smile.

 Chapter 296 Battle Of The Expert Cultivators (1)

    Ji Yuan was now standing in the battle arena.

    Today was his turn to battle an opponent from one of the three opposing factions.

    As Ji Yuan appeared inside the battle arena, his opponent from the Water Faction had also appeared and he was smiling; it was because his opponent was Ji Yuan who was supposedly a dying cultivator who had overused his life force energies.

    He was smirking; it is my great fortune today to meet a stupid cultivator that has been burning his life essences. Plus he has never been defeated before. Today I am going to be a rich cultivator!

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was smiling broadly. It was because he was still thinking about Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing; they had suddenly be best of friends overnight.

    He had suddenly noticed that there was no longer any ice between Feng Minyue and him anymore; she had readily listened to him while sharing her experiences in the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    Even Yu Jingjing was also opened with him and he had suddenly realized that he had wronged Yu Jingjing on their first meeting.

    He had readily apologized to her and she had also epted his apologizes.

    Ji Yuan was not a fool; he knew that these two maidens seemed to have developed affections for him and he weed it.

    And right now his golden eyes were looking at them tenderly.

    It was as though these two maidens had already pledged their hearts to him.

    Yu Jingjing, as he realizedter, is actually the number one beauty in the Endless Celestial Fraternity and she is from one of the top three celestial sects in her celestial fraternity.

    Even though Ji Yuan had no proof that she was speaking the truth but it was alright to him; he doesn''t mind getting tricked by a great beauty once in a while.

    After all, he got nothing to lose literally; he is dead poor and his only precious profound treasure is his saint-step divine sword which can be recalled by him and only be used by him.

    He was actually thinking; I got nothing to lose anyway and she got nothing to gain from me actually.

    But the truth was, he was beginning to like Yu Jingjing a lot.

    Yu Jingjing is actually quite frank and amicable. She is like a heroine that tries to mediate peace whenever she goes.

    That was why previously she had tried to interfere with her music when Ji Yuan had first met her. But a misunderstanding between the two of them caused Ji Yuan to think that she was mocking him.

    But she had since apologized sincerely to Ji Yuan, "I really never know that such a saint figure will exist in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    She was also in awe of Feng Minyue as well after learning of her name. "You''re really that Great Saintess Feng Minyue the Fragrance Princess?"

    Her celestial sect as a collector of celestial information on the saintly cultivators in the Celestial Realm naturally have Feng Minyue''s records in the archives.

    She had since be best of friends with Feng Minyue as well and they were now as close as sisters.

    As Ji Yuan looked up to the spector stand at Yu Jingjing, he had a smile as he thought; Well, on ord that we are bosom friends now, I''ll forgive you for lying to me about your immortal beard recipe. Now I know that you''re only trying to get my attention. Haha."

    He took a quick look at the rest of his beloveds; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi before he took a step forward to meet his opponent.

    His opponent continued to smirk coldly, "Ji Yuan, I am Qiu Wuji. Today is the day that I will send you to meet your maker. If you are wise enough to quickly surrender, I will preserve your full corpse¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had taken out his saintly divine sword with his left hand from his spatial ring and had thrust it into the ground with a loud thunderous shockwave that shook the entire battle arena.

    Everyone was startled and reacted with great shock when they suddenly saw a saint-step divine sword that was suddenly ced in front of them!

    "This¡­"

    "Impossible¡­"

    "There can''t be a saint sword in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "Howe he has a saint sword?"

    "Look, his saint sword has a double halo¡­"

    "This is¡­impossible¡­"

    "It is hard enough to wield a saint sword and he has actually divine harmonized with his saint sword?!"

    "Is he is a genius or a monster?"

    "He is a great saint with a saint sword and a sword spirit¡­"

    Ji Yuan had indeed disyed his sword spirit as well as his divine harmonization with his saintly divine sword.

    Ling Feiyue along with Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were looking at one another; they kinda have been expecting this for quite a while but they did not know why Ji Yuan had chosen to reveal his trump card at such an early stage?

    At the same time everyone could feel Ji Yuan''s sword intention in their minds and they were trembling; if that Qiu Wuji attacks Ji Yuan, he would be dead in an instant!

    Sword intentions can only be formed only if a cultivator could reach the highest pinnacle of sword cultivation and only a sword saint can achieve it.

    This Ji Yuan is actually a Sword Saint!

    The only reason why Ji Yuan''s sword intentions could even reach all the way to the spector stand was because he was a Super Sword Saint now, having ovee the Trial of the Sword Saint twice over and he had obtained the terrifying sword intentions of the Malevolent God Domain.<sub> </sub>

    In short, his will through his sword which was mostmonly called ''Sword Intention'' was able to gain a physical form in the minds of the spectors.

    Everyone could even immerse themselves as a cultivator that was facing Ji Yuan and they could even see Ji Yuan''s sword strokes shing if they were to react in the next instant.

    Only the strongest cultivators were unmoved by Ji Yuan''s sword intention as they could still parry off his next couple of moves but many of them were still being unsettled because Ji Yuan''s sword intentions were constantly changing and they were unsure what would happen after the next couple of moves since they could not see the future past the couple of moves!

    Many saint cultivators were gasping now and breaking into cold sweat now;

    "I can only see 16 possible moves if I were to react against Ji Yuan¡­"

    "You are much better than me. I can only see 5¡­"

    "I can see at least 47 moves¡­"

    "If Ji Yuan moves first, the number of moves will increase¡­"

    Chu Ren was sighing; he was trying to observe Ji Yuan''s battles so that he could find a chance to defeat Ji Yuan but he was now unsure. It was because all of them seemed to have underestimate Ji Yuan because they were never his actual opponent in the first ce; they did not seem to realize how terrifying Ji Yuan''s speed with his sword really is.

    His experience had taught him by looking at his opponent''s leg posture that Ji Yuan must be a right-hander but he was only using his left hand. Therefore his speed with his right hand must be even faster.

    He had suddenly realized that he had no hope of defeating Ji Yuan anymore.

    Previously Ji Yuan did not even unsheathe his saintly divine sword and had already defeated him soundly.

    When Ji Yuan had unsheathed his saintly divine sword, the profound power that could be felt was really terrifying!

    Hi opponent Qiu Wuji hadpletely broken down in cold sweat. It was because the sword intention that he saw when he reacted was Ji Yuan killing him with several burst of his sword energies.

    The profound energies that could be unleashed by a saintly divine sword were so terrifying that all his profound defenses were shattered and he would be killed even before he could be near Ji Yuan¡­

    Qiu Wuji stammered with fear, "I''ll surrender¡­please don''t kill me¡­"

    Ji Yuan had clearly anticipated it as he quickly said to everyone, "I don''t want to kill anyone but if you were to force my hand, don''t me me for using my saint-step divine sword on you. And by the way¡­"

    He had suddenly unleashed his life force energies with his saintly saint sword as he sent a huge streak of brilliant light across the invisible dome, shaking the entire battle tform!

    Not once but thrice, stunning everyone!

    Ji Yuan had used his life force sword three times in a row and he was still smiling awesomely.

    "Did you see that¡­"

    "He has used his life essences three times?!"

    "That is impossible¡­"

    All the spectors, including Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Mo Bei were all stunned by what they were seeing as well.

    Did they just see Ji Yuan using his life force sword three times in a row seemingly without being affected by anything? Then why did he bleed from his nose the past couple of times in his previous fights?

    Ji Yuan was so awesome that all the fighters in the entire battle tform were all staring nkly in the direction where Ji Yuan was and forgetting that they were all in the middle of a fight.

    Although Ji Yuan''s voice was not loud and he had weak internal profound strength to resonate his voice across the battle arena but everyone was struggling with their internal profound strength to hear his golden words.

    When one is powerful, there is no need for powerful internal profound strength to make their voices heard. All they need is their opponents'' internal profound strength to be strong to make themselves heard.

    Ji Yuan''s voice may be the sound of needles dropping but today his voice was like a drum in the ears of many of the geniuses.

    As Ji Yuan disappeared from view, having been sent out by the Trial after his victorious battle, many of the cultivators on the Fire Faction were now shouting with great fervor. "Sword Saint Ji Yuan! God of Songs Ji Yuan!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing could not believe how powerful a cultivator Ji Yuan is now.

    Yu Jingjing was gasping nonstop and she was flushing; she had never thought that Ji Yuan will actually be a top level sword saint and this caused her passionate heart for Ji Yuan to deepen¡­

    As for the other maidens, they could not believe what they were all seeing; actually Ji Yuan''s life force sword was just an extension of his sword energies and were nothing extraordinary.

    If he imbued his life force energies into his real profound sword art like the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light or any of his other more powerful profound sword arts, they knew that it would be even more devastating!

    Even for them, they were muttering with great bewilderment that Ji Yuan did not seem to be weaker than them nowadays.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi liked Ji Yuan not because he was a powerful cultivator. They were stronger in cultivation than him as they have plenty of cultivation resources.

    In their eyes, Ji Yuan was poor and they were determined to help him because he was their lord and of course, they all liked his beautiful looks and romantic poems as well.

    Bai Qianfeng was naturally way stronger than Ji Yuan but she was suddenly unsure now because the ability to use life force energies without being affected by it was like a cheat plus Ji Yuan had a saint-step divine sword that was also impossible to obtain even in the Immortal Realm.

    Naturally she was also not attracted by his mere beautiful looks because she valued powerful cultivators more and the immortal cultivators had plenty of beautiful men; she was just very touched by Ji Yuan in the past and willingly be his consort.

    But today she was smiling beautifully because Ji Yuan is now a worthy andpatible fit for her, because he is an awesome and powerful cultivator now.

 Chapter 297 Battle Of The Expert Cultivators (2)

    After Ji Yuan had returned to the battle room, he eagerly inspected his victory spoils; he had plenty of debts to clear and he was eager to find more high grade spirit stones to repay his debts.

    But to his disappointment, he found nothing.

    He began to curse loudly, "He is actually a pauper! Then why did he wear so beautiful for?!"

    But soon began to calm down as he growled softly. "Most of the cultivators will have lost a round or two by the time they have reached the mid-levels or so."

    He estimated that only around 20% of the cultivators would be able to keep their possessions and less than 5% of the 10,000 cultivators would be able to retain their possessions at the end of the trial.

    With a soft sigh, he stared at his five wings totem and 19 ughter points now.

    He had five more battles to go before he could ovee this trial.

    If he could win all his battles then he would need 10 days more and not 20 days, finishing earlier than the time that was given.

    However he preferred to take it easy because he did not want to meet the more difficult opponents plus he had to wait for his beloved maidens to slowly catch up too.

    Naturally Ji Yuan did not want to fight them so he had to allow his other opponents to obtain the wings first so he was purposely going slow.

    However his masterful n had a w now; his debts would be increasing at each passing day!

    -

    -

    -

    Two dayster Ji Yuan was back to the battle arena again.

    This time round his opponent was a Great Saint from the Barren Celestial Fraternity. He was none other than Tang Yumen from the Air Faction.

    Now Tang Yumen was also a top cultivator from the Air Faction and he had been undefeated so far.

    Among all the opposing factions, Tang Yumen from the Air Faction, Lin Antian from the Earth Faction and Chu Ren from the Water Faction were all highly dangerous opponents that Ji Yuan was wary of.

    Even though Ji Yuan had defeated Chu Ren through his stunning disy of profound power but he knew that he had only won because he had caught an unwary Chu Ren with another profound attack when he was least suspecting it.

    Now Tang Yumen had also divine harmonized with his divine sword and he was also a master of poisons and secret projectiles.

    Yu Jingjing had actually lost very badly after her encounter with Tang Yumen.

    And it made Ji Yuan''s blood boiled when he recalled how despicable Tang Yumen had been and he was even trying to rip off Yu Jingjing''s clothing off her.

    Although Yu Jingjing was not his girl but she was now his best friend in this trial so naturally Ji Yuan was unhappy to see Tang Yumen.

    Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, why are you so upset? I can see your emotions through your soul sea. You look as if he had green you?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Even though he did not green me but it is still the same as greening me."

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Haha. You won''t understand." Ji Yuanughed. "Only I can touch Maiden Yu Jingjing, you know."

    Xiang Li giggled. "So he had already green you by touching Maiden Yu."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Tang Yumen was smiling as he faced Ji Yuan. "Since we are both expert cultivators, there is no point of fighting to thest man standing. Why don''t we have a draw instead?"

    Ji Yuan raised his head and touched his beardless chin, "What if I were to say no?"

    Tang Yumen appeared to be surprised but he was soon smiling, "Ji Yuan, you will soon regret your insolence!"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly as he immediately disyed his saintly divine sword causing a minuscule shockwave in the vicinity.

    Many of the fighters had already stopped fighting and they were saying to each other, "Why don''t we observe their fights first."

    Ji Yuan vs. Tang Yumen!

    This was the fight between two of the strongest cultivators in their cohort!

    Tang Yumen was the first to make his move as he raised his heaven-step divine sword.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he raised his saintly divine sword to meet his opponent.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was startled when Tang Yumen had suddenly blinked on top of him with him!

    This Tang Yumen was not only a speed cultivator but he seemed to be capable of using a blink profound art that could allow him to vanish and blink instantaneously!

    For him to use his special profound art on Ji Yuan, it only means that he considered him as a threat.

    There was a thunderous impact as Ji Yuan raised his sword above him to meet Tang Yumen''s onughter.

    But all of a sudden when both their divine swords had shed, Tang Yumen''s heaven-step divine sword had transformed into an immortal-step divine sword!<sub> </sub>

    In that instant Ji Yuan was ttened onto the ground as he rolled out of harm''s way in the next instant.

    Tang Yumen was grinning as he threw dozens of secret projectiles from his sleeves and each of the needles could cause a mini implosion that could kill any golden supremacies!

    Everyone was gasping with startled shock at the martial disy that was from Tang Yumen as the vicinity over Ji Yuan had exploded into a burst of mushroom debris and thick smog was formed as dozens of secret projectiles exploded simultaneously.

    "You''re surely dead by now." Tang Yumen was grinning.

    It was because the speed of his secret projectiles exceeded the reflexes of many of the cultivators here and was extremely difficult to block and moreover Ji Yuan was not a power cultivator. Therefore the explosion would have severely wounded him.

    But all of a sudden he appeared to be quite startled when he saw that Ji Yuan had stepped out of the smog with an ugly look but he was nevertheless unharmed.

    "What the¡­" Tang Yumen was startled as he threw another dozen secret projectiles at Ji Yuan.

    Although it was only a dozen secret projectiles but this secret projectile of his had a beautiful name and it was called the Red Lotus of Death; it was even faster than the secret projectiles earlier and could even pierce through the golden body of most saints.

    But Ji Yuan had simply swung his sword with an eye-popping precision and had deflected all twelve secret projectiles aside!

    His speed was even more startling than Tang Yumen''s Red Lotus of Death even though all twelve secret projectiles were spaced to deliver maximum speed and impact, making it impossible for a single cultivator to block itpletely.

    But Ji Yuan was able to do it.

    It was only then that all the cultivators saw that Ji Yuan was no longer a left-hander but a right-hander now.

    It seemed to everyone that Ji Yuan''s speed with his sword was many times even faster than when he was wielding his sword on his left hand!

    Ji Yuan''s eyes were really sharp and he could even see a needle from a mile away; he was not kidding to the maidens when he had jokingly said to them in the past.

    Ji Yuan was seething with rage now because he had an opponent that was throwing explosive poisonous secret projectiles at him and that was an insult to a swordsman like him.

    His beloveds were all heaving a soft sign of relief when they saw that Ji Yuan was unscathed.

    Everyone was inhaling at the skills that were disyed by both Ji Yuan and Tang Yumen.

    However Tang Yumen was soon smiling, "Not bad but do you know that this is a grade nine poison. I''m afraid that even if you are a golden saint, you won''t be able to resist its effectpletely. At the very least, even your movements will be slower than usual and you can''t even draw your usual profound strength like normally."

    Ji Yuan indeed could feel the effect of the toxic that was trying to prate through to his golden body. At this moment, he was actually using half of his profound strength to resist the poison.

    This poison was extremely powerful and did not require the cultivator to inhale it. It was actually a contact poison and it worked by prating through the skin.

    This made Ji Yuan even madder than usual because he was fighting against a most despicable opponent.

    Many of the cultivators were gasping and cursing Tang Yumen.

    Even though many of them know that this was actually the strength of Tang Yumen but many of them could not stand his unorthodox ways of fighting.

    Many were shaking their heads now because Tang Yumen had the upper hand since the very start while Ji Yuan was still on the defensive.

    But Tang Yumen simply did not care about what they thought of him and he was saying now, "Ji Yuan, let me send you to your maker in the next instant."

    With that he had leapt forward and had suddenly vanished in mid-air!

    In that very instant Tang Yumen had suddenly blinked from behind Ji Yuan to deliver a deadly strike on Ji Yuan''s head, intending to behead him in the next instant!

    But that next instant did note at all because there was a piercing bolt of light as Ji Yuanbined all his profound strength and life force energies to deliver a piecing burst of light that was behind him; in that instant Tang Yumen''s heart had exploded by a piercing backward thrust that was from Ji Yuan''s divine sword.

    Tang Yumen stared in disbelief at Ji Yuan, "How did you¡­"

    His profound art was not a purely speed profound art so it was impossible for Ji Yuan''s eyes to follow him. Rather it was an instantaneous teleportation that could blend thews of time and space to allow him to appear at the back of his opponent to deliver a fatal strike.

    Ji Yuan swung his divine sword again as he beheaded Tang Yumen.

    "One, I just realize that I can use my life force energies to burn away the effects of your poisons."

    "Second, in all the cultivation stories, all the MCs always have a cheat that can allow them to teleport to the back of a superior foe to allow them to y opponents that are many cultivation realms higher. Therefore I''ve already known that you will do this."

    "The third is the most important of all why your profound art does not work against me. When you have appeared behind me, the air behind me has moved all of a sudden even before you have appeared. Therefore that is the most important reason why you''re dead of course."

    A cultivator''s profound animus naturally enveloped him and any invisible vibrations would alert him. By the time a cultivator reached the saint level, he would probably have defeated several invisible deste creatures or opponents that lurked in the dark.

    Therefore surprising a high level cultivator was not that easy at all, especially against Ji Yuan who was a veteran in fighting deste monsters and countless challengers.

    Ji Yuan said coolly as he added, "I can only say that years of using underhand means to fight your opponents have made you a second rate fighter. Therefore you''re a dead man even before we''ve fought."

    "Ji Yuan has won¡­"

    "Tang Yumen has lost?!"

    "How did it happen? It happens too fast for my eyes to follow¡­"

    Mo Bei was also in the spector stand and he was suddenly grinning as he stroked his long beard, "Ji Yuan, you have an extra immortal-step divine sword now. It is time for you to repay the Mo n now. Hehehe¡­"

 Chapter 298 Ji Yuan, It Is Time For You To Repay The Mo Clan!

    Ji Yuan wasughing all the way from the battle hall to the hallway; it was because he had not only obtained an immortal-step divine sword in such an easy manner but he had also obtained a million high grade spirit stones from Tang Yumen.

    He was truly a millionaire cultivator now.

    As he walked past everyone, he began tough jovially as he waved. "See you all at the mansion''s great hallter! My treat! Haha."

    He said to the spirit attendants, "Remember to waiver the bills from everyone at the great hall today. It is my treat! Haha!"

    For the very first time in his entire life, he felt like a freaking rich cultivator.

    He also promptly paid up all his debts that he owed for using the cultivation practice chamber with a loud chuckle. "You want to take my saintly divine sword? Fat hope!"

    Before he left, he chuckled aloud. "Even if I can''t pay, you also can''t obtain my saint sword as well. That is because I still have an immortal-step divine sword here that I can use to repay my debt haha."

    "Big Brother, pridees before a fall. You are looking so conceit now." Xiang Li pointed out.

    But Ji Yuanughed it off. "Xiang Li, we''re going to the Wings Cultivation Hall to buy some cultivation resources. We are now able to ess the six wings level now."

    Xiang Li suddenly giggled. "Big Brother, you are going to purchase some of those strange pills again?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Never again." He could only reply with a weak smile.

    "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan! My Junior Ji Yuan!" Mo Bei had suddenly appeared in the hallway as he shouted after him.

    "Senior Mo Bei? Why are you so anxious to look for me?" Ji Yuanughed. "Or you can''t wait to congrats me?"

    Mo Beiughed jovially, "That is one reason but I''vee for a second more important reason."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan asked.

    Mo Bei grinned. "It is time for you to repay the Mo n, am I right? Have you forgotten what you''ve promised Diviner Mo Ming? That you have to take care of the Mo n while inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as heughed. "You must be kidding me, am I right? Senior, you are superior to me in all ways. Do you need me to take care of you?"

    Mo Bei stroked his long beard as heughed, "Naturally I am superior to you in all ways except for one aspect."

    "My masculine vitality?" Ji Yuan suggested.

    Mo Bei: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    He was trying to suggest that he had no immortal sword...

    "You''ve just obtained an immortal divine sword." Mo Bei growled softly. "You can use that to repay the Mo n for helping you with the Dream Trial."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly smiling weakly, "Yes sure. I think that is a great idea."

    Mo Bei chuckled loudly. "You really think so as well? Hahaha. In that case¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted with a grin. "In that case, I will give this immortal sword to Qianxue then."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "You''re supposed to give it to the Mo n¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed. "I didn''t forget that my beloved Qianxue is also from the Mo n, am I right? So if I give her this immortal sword then isn''t this the same as repaying and taking care of the Mo n? Do you agree with me or not? Or you want me to tell her that she isn''t from the Mo n?"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, you''re too shameless. Fancy you''re a reputable orthodox sword saint¡­

    "Senior Mo Bei, I intend to give this immortal sword to Qianxue." Ji Yuanughed. "Since you''ve mentioned that it is alright for me to cancel my debt to the Mo n by giving away this immortal sword then I am most willing to oblige you."

    He patted Mo Bei gently on his shoulder before he walked away with jovialughter. "Today must be my lucky day. I''ve managed to repay all my debts today. I didn''t feel so lucky for such a long time. There is a saying that if a person''s luck hits rock bottom then it will soon rise again. It is so true. Haha."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

 Chapter 299 Xiang Lis Heart

    Ji Yuan was now at the Wings Cultivation Hall and he had walked up to the sixth level.

    He still had more than nine hundred thousand high grade spirit stones after repaying his debts and he was now feeling quite rich in his pockets.

    "Get me your best cultivation resources on this level for me to view. Your granddaddy here has no time to check one by one. Haha." Ji Yuanughed as he said to the spirit attendants on this level.

    Immediately dozens of spirit attendants were swarming around Ji Yuan to present him with the high level cultivation resources that were on this level.

    There were also a dozen cultivators from the Fire Faction that was on this level and they immediately bowed with their hands respectfully toward Ji Yuan.

    They were some of the best cultivators in the Fire Faction but they were not at the pinnacle yet. In the Fire Faction there were there three others that were at the seventh level already.

    There were many cultivators that were in the Fire Faction that thought that Ji Yuan would be at the higher level if he would be able to contest daily.

    Therefore everyone had the utmost respect toward him.

    "JI Yuan is here!"

    "Great Hero Ji Yuan is here!"

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan!"

    "God of Songs Ji Yuan!"

    "Please address me to address you as Big Brother Ji Yuan¡­no Senior Ji Yuan! I would not be able to improve my cultivation if it is not for your enlightening moving music!"

    Ji Yuan waved his hands, "Haha! Please continue as per normal. You are all my cultivation brothers and sisters!"

    There were two maidens among the six cultivators that were presented and they had all dropped what they were doing to greet Ji Yuan.

    These two maidens were flushing when Ji Yuan had suddenly addressed them as his cultivation sisters and even the men were all excited at the prospect that Ji Yuan was now addressing them as their cultivation brothers.

    They quickly said to the spirit attendants, "Let Big Brother Ji Yuan has his first pick first! We can wait!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "You are all too polite. Since you are all here earlier than me, this won''t be nice at all."

    The six cultivators quickly said;

    "Not at all!"

    "You are our champion in the Fire Faction¡­"

    "Because of you, our Fire Faction is able to lift our heads high¡­"

    "You are our idol!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "In that case, I will not decline everyone''s kind offer. But I cannot ept this kind offer free of charge."

    He immediately waved his hands to send ten thousand high grade spirit stones to everyone. "Please do not decline my gesture of gratitude as well!"

    The six cultivators were all smiling broadly, "Thank you Big Brother Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan had always been generous to the cultivators in the Five Heavens Peaks where he was from. He would offer to buy them drinks.

    He had never saved much because if he had any excess cultivation wealth, he would generously donated it to his own Orthodox Sword Sect and he had never given himself any extra, not even when he had some excess wealth from his tomb raiding activities in the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Even when he had left for his self-seclusion for his saint breakthrough, he did not empty the treasuries of the Orthodox Sword Sect to aid himself.

    Rather, he had left everything to Ye Chengxi who was his core prot¨¦g¨¦ and the next leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Actually even if Ji Yuan was wealthy, he would quickly disperse all his cultivation wealth away because he had a generous spirit and he was a carefree cultivator that rarely bothered with material wealth.

    That was also one of the main reasons why he was able to advance in his cultivation realms quickly because he had a higher state of divinity than most of the other cultivators even though hecked any cultivation resources.

    Ji Yuan''s passions were actually his sword arts and his delicious wines forpany.

    He did not mind even if his peers like Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were able to advance faster than him even though they were all younger than him because they were themselves and he was himself; he was only interested to pursue his own path of cultivation and had never thought ofpeting with the other geniuses of the cultivation world.

    He had often told Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "What is the point of saving so many cultivation resources for the Orthodox Sword Sect when it will eventually squandered by all of you? If you really want to be a cultivator then you have to depend on your own resources and not your own sect or anyone else for it. Either you ept that our mountains are poor in spiritual aura or you can choose to win eptance into the top celestial sects."<sub> </sub>

    To Ji Yuan, his own celestial sect was actually a burden and as the years went by, he was frequently not in the Five Heavens Peaks but had wandered like a beggar throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity may know Ji Yuan as the Great Poet Ji Yuan but they did not know that he was able to pen many of his emotional poems because he was a carefree and poor wanderer that had traveled extensively to mingle with the many poor cultivators.

    That was also one of the reasons why he was nominated as one of the most beautiful bearded cultivators by the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity but this would be another long story.

    Ji Yuan was now saying in his soul sea, "My dearest Xiang Li, pick whatever you want. Your Big Brother will buy you anything that you like."

    Xiang Li was flushing shyly when Ji Yuan was calling her dearest all of a sudden but she quickly said, "But Big Brother, this won''t do. Xiang Li doesn''t want anything from you¡­"

    "What? You think that I am still the same pauper? I''m rich now!" Ji Yuanughed jovially.

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes before she giggled, "Big Brother, you''ve better check your spirit stones. You''ve only a few hundred high grade spirit stones left now."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly inspected his spatial ring, "What the heck? What about to my one million high grade spirit stones?!!"

    Xiang Li muttered, "You owe the Trial 700,000 high grade spirit stones four days ago. A day of interest is 70k¡­so three days of interest¡­."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he stared nkly, "Um¡­sorry Xiang Li, next time I will buy you something nice."

    Xiang Li giggled softly, "It is alright, Big Brother. I don''t need anything."

    I only need you, Big Brother¡­

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "Haha. Rubbish Xiang Li. Of course you need something. I will promise you that your Big Brother will get you something next time. This is a promise."

    He began to rub his chin, "Hmm, easye, easy go."

    As he exited the hall, he was in jovial mood again; it was because he had nothing to lose and had even gained an immortal-step divine sword for his beloved Qianxue.

    He was not bothered by the worldly possessions as he could not bring it to the Immortal Realm in the future. The only things that a cultivator can bring to the Immortal Realm are their empty spatial rings and their divine swords.

    "Big Brother, can I say something to you? Promise me that you will stay calm, alright?" Xiang Li giggled softly.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I am the calmness person in the Fire Faction at the moment. Haha. Nothing can rock my heart."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "That''s good, Big Brother. Don''t forget that you''ve just offered to pay for the tabs in the great hall for everyone."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He hadpletely forgotten about this¡­

    Xiang Li praised him, "Big Brother, you''re generous indeed."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly. "I think our next task now is to check the interest owed for the tabs¡­"

    "Ipletely agree with Big Brother!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Thanks Xiang Li! You''re indeed my bosom friend. Haha."

    But Ji Yuan really did not mind at all as he walked away in high spirits again. It was because he had always been a carefree cultivator.

    "It looks like I''ve got to loot from my cultivators again¡­"

    "Maybe they are paupers too." Xiang Li giggled.

    "Don''t curse me Xiang Li." Ji Yuan frowned. "Or I will kick you away."

    But Xiang Li continued to giggle nevertheless. She is really enjoying every moment of her time with Ji Yuan and it had been so fun so far with Ji Yuan.

    Xiang Li quietly muttered silently, "Big Brother, I love you¡­"

 Chapter 300 Can You Become Xiang Lis Best Friend?

    A spirit young maiden was floating in her own spatial space as she watched the many cultivators simultaneously.

    She was the real trial spirit of this trial that Ji Yuan was in.

    She could not believe what she was witnessing from this cohort of cultivators.

    There was one particr cultivator that had caught her attention and he was Ji Yuan. Even though he did not appear to be a genius but time and time he had surprised her.

    First he was the only cultivator that had a saintly divine sword. Between the Celestial Realm and Immortal Realm, there were only less than a dozen of these saint swords in existence.

    She had thought that he must have a considerable background from the Immortal Realm because he could even divine harmonize with a divine sword. Not once but twice over.

    But after inspecting the profound animus of his saintly divine sword, she had realized that his saintly divine sword was a newly forged saint sword.

    "This is impossible¡­only the universal righteous force can force a saint sword in the present universe¡­"

    One must know that divine swords are all forged from heavenly relics and heavenly relics are actually not mined from anywhere else hence heavenly relics are extremely precious.

    To forge a heaven-step divine sword, only the purest heaven-step heavenly relic can be used.

    Basically divine swords have six grades of superiority; mortal, earth, heaven, celestial, immortal and saint.

    In the Celestial Realm, the first three grades are easily obtainable but the second half of the three grades are quite impossible to obtain even by the standards of the immortals.

    One must know how heavenly relics are obtained in the first ce and they are all forged from the ashes of the failed ascensions of the cultivators.

    When the cultivators in the Celestial Realm ascend to the Immortal Realm, their golden bodies will be metamorphosis into a pir of light to transcend from the Celestial Realm to the Immortal Realm.

    In this final ascension to the Immortal Realm, if the ascension fails, there is a chance that a piece of heavenly relic will be formed.

    But even then the weight of the heavenly relic may not be enough to forge into a divine sword and it may even take several generations of collection for a divine sword to be truly forged from the ashes of the failed ascensions.

    That is the main reason why divine swords are moremonly seen in the hands of the powerful and major celestial ns and none at all from the lesser known celestial ns; it was because these divine swords are all forged from the ashes of their saints!

    And it is also main reason why divine swords are all treated as heritage swords by the many celestial ns, passing down the lineage lines as precious heritages and as an authority of leadership.

    But that was not the only reason why this spirit young maiden was intrigued by Ji Yuan even though Ji Yuan was not the only interesting cultivators that had appeared; Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had also intrigued her because she could detect an immortal aura around them as well.

    She had suddenly found out that Ji Yuan seemed to have possessed three spirit entities, breaking the norm.

    Normally most cultivators can only have a spirit entity in their soul sea. It can be in the form of a spirit entity that can take after their profound animus or a sword spirit. But of course, there are also some other cultivators that can have the lucky two spirit entities because they had a profound art that can shape their own spirit entities in their profound animus.

    The Sacred Maiden Profound Art from the Celestial Orthodox Sect is one example where a cultivator may have two spirit entities because one of the spirit entities is actually formed from a profound art and not by obtaining from an external source.

    But Ji Yuan appeared to have a normal spirit entity and also a sword spirit.

    This was also quite puzzling to her.

    But after a closer inspection, she had suddenly realized that Ji Yuan actually had two sword spirits instead. The other sword spirit was still dormant and could not be awakened yet.

    She had never seen anyone that can have two sword spirits because it was near impossible to achieve and it was also quite impossible to use two sword spirits at the same time.

    But she knew that Ji Yuan was able to use both sword spirits once he was able to awaken it because he had already achieved double harmonized with his divine sword. Therefore it was all too easy for him to use both sword spirits at the same time.

    If so then this Ji Yuan''s sword art would be the strongest under the heavens and the earth.

    But there was something tingling familiar about the second sword spirit; it was as though she seemed to know this spirit entity¡­

    <o>,m Andstly, she was totally perplexed by the presence of Ji Yuan''s spirit entity which he had called Xiang Li.</o>

    The spirit young maiden flushed lightly when she recalled how the two of them were masturbating together at close proximity for many days seemingly without any shame.

    She would not believe how a cultivator could screw himself by swallowing five masculine profound pills.

    For a while she had thought that this Ji Yuan would be dead from sheer exhaustion and he would burn all his spiritual seas due to the powerful effects of the five masculine profound pills that were taken together.

    But to her surprise, this Ji Yuan had survived mainly because his spirit entity Xiang Li had helped him to neutralize it by using her feminine energies.

    The spirit young maiden waspletely stunned when she saw that Xiang Li could actually materialize herself in physical form.

    This is impossible?!

    It is because a spirit entity is called a spirit entity because they are all restricted and bounded to a cultivator, a ce or an object.

    But seeing is believing because she had seen Xiang Li taking on a physical form.

    Because of this, her interests in the other cultivators had quickly dropped.

    Moreover she was also quite moved by his songs as well. She had never felt such a moving song before especially from a cultivator with a pure soul rating of 10.

    Among all the cultivators in this trial, Ji Yuan''s soul rating was the purest.

    But she was soon rolling her eyes as she thought, "But his actions are definitely impure¡­"

    She really did not know whether tough or cry at this Ji Yuan¡­

    "You are the trial spirit, am I right?" A sweet voice was suddenly giggling behind.

    This gave the spirit young maiden a great startled as she quickly turned around and was astonished once more because Xiang Li had suddenly appeared in her spatial space!

    "How did you manage toe into my spatial space¡­"

    It was impossible for a spirit entity to leave the owner and to enter her spatial space¡­

    Xiang Li giggled, "It has actually taken me several days of hard work to find your spatial space in the Jade Mansion. It is really not easy at all."

    The spirit young maiden looked intently at Xiang Li before she chuckled too, "I didn''t have anypany for such a long time. What brings you here?"

    Xiang Li replied, "I''m just wondering who you are. Your trial is causing my Big Brother a big headache. He is as poor as a desert."

    The spirit young maiden smiled, "This is a trial and an S Trial. It is none of my business if he is incapable of oveing it."

    "My name is Xiang Li. What about yours?" Xiang Li asked all of a sudden.

    The spirit young maiden was startled by Xiang Li''s answer. "Um, I''m Anyang Xiayou."

    Xiang Li giggled. "I shall call you Anyang then?"

    "Whatever." The spirit young maiden hummed. "Why are you here? You''re ying a dangerous game bying into my spatial space. Do you know that I can seal you in my spatial space and I can even cause your owner to receive a bad bacsh hence affecting his performance in the trial?"

    To prove it, she immediately raised her fingers to form dozens of spirit seals that had instantly surrounded Xiang Li now.

    "What is this?" Xiang Li asked as she used her fingers to pop at the spirit seals, destroying them instantly.

    The spirit young maiden: ¡­

    "You''re trying my patience."

    Immediately she had reformed her spirit seals and she had immediately attacked Xiang Li.

    But to her astonishment, her spirit seals had no effect upon Xiang Li as though Xiang Li was just air.<sub> </sub>

    "Who are you? You''re a superior trial spirit?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I don''t know if I am a superior trial spirit or not but I am indeed a trial spirit in the past."

    The spirit young maiden was blinking nkly at Xiang Li; it was obvious to her that Xiang Li was indeed a superior trial spirit and spirit entity.

    She was powerful enough to host an S Rank Trial and she considered herself a superior trial spirit by the standards of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth but this Xiang Li seemed to be an SSS Trial Spirit.

    However there was a little problem with her analysis; no SSS Trial Spirit is known to exist ordingly to her memories.

    Spirit entities follow a strict hierarchy unlike the cultivators. While it is not impossible for a cultivator to defeat a higher realm cultivator with superior profound arts, skills and tactics but the world of spirit entities are different; a less superior spirit entity cannot suppress a more superior spirit entity even in their own spatial space.

    The spirit young maiden could only mutter weakly, "Then what do you want with me here?"

    "Anyang, I am just curious who you''re." Xiang Li giggled. "Why don''t we be friends?"

    The spirit young maiden was truly caught by surprise by Xiang Li''s answer. "Um, friends?"

    A trial spirit had always led a lonely life and had no friends.

    "What the point of bing friends when you will be leaving the trial soon?" The spirit young maiden hummed coldly. "Or are you trying to help your master?"

    Xiang Li giggled. "Hmm¡­does my master need help from me? I am useless to him and he agrees too."

    The spirit young maiden: ¡­

    She had really never seen Ji Yuan using Xiang Li as his spirit animus though.

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Why do you need so many spirit stones for?"

    The spirit young maiden hummed, "Fancy that you are a superior spirit entity, why did you ask me such a no brainer question for? We are all trial spirit entities and we need the cultivation resources of the cultivators to create new cultivation resources and to evolve ourselves."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I''ve never thought of charging the cultivators. I used to collect the cultivation resources of the dead cultivators."

    "That is because you are not as smart as me." The spirit young maiden smiled proudly. "That is why I am able to evolve myself so fast. If you wait for the cultivators to die before collecting their cultivation resources, it may never happen."

    With another smile, she added. "Therefore you are not as smart as me. You''re probably older than me by a lot and I bet that it has taken you a long time to get to your current position now."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "So after you''ve evolved but you are still the trial spirit of a bigger trial. Isn''t it not fun?"

    The spirit young maiden chuckled. "It is better than abandoning your trial to follow a cultivator, am I right? Once a cultivator is dead, you will also be dead as well. I am eternal but you are not."

    "Rubbish! My Big Brother will live forever." Xiang Li dered proudly.

    The spirit young maiden smiled. "Even an immortal will die and some have even be a trial spirit here because they refuse to believe that they will die. It is better to be a trial spirit in the first ce than anything else."

    Xiang Li giggled. "But I heard from my Big Brother''s friends that a bad guy ising to extract the artifact core of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Once that happens, won''t you be dead?"

    The spirit young maiden muttered, "Nonsense. The Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth is eternal. The artefact core of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth is an SS Trial spirit. It is impossible to extract it."

    Xiang Li giggled. "Maybe. Maybe not. Well, I am leaving now. Please to meet you!"

    "You''re leaving so soon?" The spirit young maiden gasped all of a sudden.

    "I can''t leave?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "Didn''t you say that we can be friends?" The spirit young maiden said shyly. "Then why are you leaving so early?"

    She was indeed very lonely from years of loneliness and she was really surprised that Xiang Li would be able to breech her spatial space to visit her.

    "Well Anyang, I guess that we can be friends." Xiang Li giggled. "Let me tell you all about my Big Brother and the trials that I''ve hosted."

    The spirit young maiden rolled her eyes, "Who wants to hear about your Big Brother? He looks lewd¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled. "How do you know if he is lewd if you haven''t been spying on him?"

    The spirit young maiden refused to answer Xiang Li but she asked instead. "Howe your Big Brother has a second sword spirit? I can''t figure it out."

    Xiang Li began to ponder. "You mean she? She is also a trial spirit here. She says she used to be my best friend but I''ve no memories of her. But I think that she is awakening soon."

    The spirit young maiden by the name of Anyang Xiayou was astonished. "She gives up an eternal life of being a trial spirit to be bonded with a cultivator? This is madness."

    Xiang Li giggled as she asked her, "Will you like to join us as well?"

    "No way! Plus there is no way for a cultivator to host so many spirit entities. There will be a bacsh for him for sure." Anyang Xiayou pointed out. "Plus your master looks like a simpleton. I don''t want to be a simpleton as well by joining him."

    Xiang Li giggled jovially, "My Big Brother is indeed a simpleton but I like him because of this."

    "Why do you like a simpleton? Or are you a simpleton as well?" Anyang Xiayou giggled.

    Xiang Li giggled as she covered her face with her palms, "Uh no. Big Brother is too awesome."

    "Why is he awesome?" Anyang Xiayou chuckled.

    Xiang Li winked back at her, "Because he bangs many beautiful maidens."

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Slowly she asked, "What''s that got to do with you? You will be extinguished once he is gone anyway."

    Xiang Li answered with great earnest, "I''m going to marry my Big Brother."

    Anyang Xiayou smiled weakly, "But you''re a spirit entity¡­"

    "But I''ve a physical body now." Xiang Li giggled.

    Anyang Xiayou muttered weakly, "How did you get your physical body?"

    This was something that she was really interested in.

    Xiang Li reached out her slender hand as she smiled. "I am toozy to exin. Why don''t you touch my hand to know my experiences?"

    Spirit entities do have a way to exchange their memories in this manner.

    Anyang Xiayou was half-amused as she reached out to touch Xiang Li''s hand.

    But she was soon gasping with shock as she stared at Xiang Li; the part about Xiang Li obtaining her physical body was not importantpared to the fact that she is the Goddess'' Tear. Xiang Li is the matriarch of all the spirit entities!

    Anyang Xiayou suddenly had a change of heart as she asked Xiang Li with great earnest, "How do I join you?"

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before she giggled, "My Big Brother has a spare immortal-step divine sword. You can make that divine sword your dwelling ce. As long as that divine sword is not destroyed, you can live forever."

    Anyang Xiayou gasped nervously, "But a spirit entity can never leave their trials. We''re all bounded by the spiritws¡­"

    But all of a sudden she was staring at Xiang Li, "But you''re different. The spiritws will not be able to bind you and you can bend it. Can you do it?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Is it so hard? I can try if you''re willing to be my friend."

    Anyang Xiayou began to nod excitingly, "If you are able to do it then we can surely be best of friends."

 Chapter 301 Ji Yuan Vs. Lin Antian

    Ji Yuan actually had no idea that Xiang Li and the Trial Spirit Anyang Xiayou were now the best of friends and that a part of Anyang Xiayou was already in Ji Yuan''s newly obtained immortal-step divine sword.

    Once the trial ended, Anyang Xiayou would transfer herself into the immortal divine swordpletely.

    Xiang Li had said to Anyang Xiayou, "Stay hidden! Don''t let my Big Brother knows!"

    Anyang Xiayou asked curiously, "Since I am going to follow him in the future, why shouldn''t I let him know him?"

    Xiang Li answered her solemnly, "My Big Brother is a lecherous cultivator. You don''t want his eyes upon you. I will protect you from him."

    8 dayster, Ji Yuan had now obtained his 9th wing and today he waspeting for his 10th wing to clear the trial.

    Between Ji Yuan''s 7th to 9th wings, he had actually received no resources from his opponents who had all surrendered at the first instance; they were all paupers.

    He was frowning, "Howe my opponents are all paupers? This must be rigged by the trial spirit! Curse the trial spirit!"

    Xiang Li immediately said to Anyang Xiayou, "Did you hear that? My Big Brother wants a rich opponent. Give him the richest opponent!"

    If Ji Yuan could hear Xiang Li, he would have fainted immediately.

    The 10th wing was the most difficult because all the cultivators at this point were the strongest.

    There were also many other cultivators that were purposely waiting at the 8th wing level, refusing to participate at the higher levels in the hope that their stronger opponents would eliminate each other or to receive injuries that would give them a clear advantage.

    At the same time the cultivators at the higher levels were not simpletons and they seemed to notice that Ji Yuan was purposely fighting every two days and so were some of their own faction cultivators as well.

    But they had a terrible headache deciding which days to pick.

    If they pick the days that Ji Yuan was at, they had to fight Bai Qianfeng and her nasty seventh rank deste profound dragon.

    The trial spirit was now announcing;

    "44,444 vs. 11111."

    44,444 was naturally Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was cursing his luck when he saw that his opponent was the Verdant ck Spear Cultivator Lin Antian, one of the strongest cultivators that were around.

    Lin Antian was undefeated and he was also fighting for his 10th wing like Ji Yuan.

    Lin Antian pointed his ck spear at Ji Yuan and everyone could see a ck halo around his celestial-step ck spear.

    This Lin Antian was also a peaked great saint and the strikes of his profound arts were extremely stunning.

    "Ji Yuan, you''re a worthy opponent. I''ve longed to fight with you because you''re one of the best here." Lin Antian said solemnly.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Actually, I don''t really want to fight you as an opponent because you''re a dangerous opponent."

    Based on Ji Yuan''s observation, he knew that this Lin Antian may have several hidden profound arts that he had not revealed yet.

    The two of them exchanged greetings with each other while the rest of spectors were all inhaling quietly at Ji Yuan and Lin Antian.

    For this fight, there were no otherbatants.

    There were only a few dozen cultivators as the lower wings cultivators were not allowed to view a higher level fight.

    But Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were among the spectors.

    Lin Antian had suddenly mustered his profound aura and it was burning brilliantly.

    Ji Yuan broke into cold sweat upon seeing the formidable aura that was disyed in front of him but he was unwilling to belittle by his opponent so he had also disyed his sword spirit and the double halo of his saintly divine sword.

    All the cultivators could tell that the profound powers that were being disyed by the two cultivators had reached an astonishing level that was beyond what most peaked great saints could muster.

    Lin Antian gave a great shout as he initiated the first attack as a ck wave of light exploded from his spear attack.

    Ji Yuan had also unleashed his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to meet the wave of dark light.

    When the two waves of profound energies collided, a thunderous impact exploded over the battle arena.<sub> </sub>

    But Ji Yuan and Lin Antian were already exchanging their attack strokes as their sword and spear collided with astonishing speed, shing lights and shadows throughout the battle arena.

    That was not all; even Ji Yuan and Lin Antian were moving at astonishing speed and they were like two globes of light that were racing across the battle arena!

    Ji Yuan was surprised that Lin Antian could catch up with his speed and matched the profound power of his saintly divine sword when he suddenly saw that Lin Antian had also disyed his sword spirit, much to his astonishment and everyone else.

    He muttered, "He has a sword spirit as well?"

    The entire vicinity was exploding with Ji Yuan''s devastating sword energies and Lin Antian''s profound energies.

    All of a sudden Lin Antian had found a short respite when Ji Yuan was diverting his attention to neutralize the profound energies that were upon him with his sword energies; therefore he had suddenly raised his ck spear high up as a gigantic orb had suddenly formed from above.

    "Ten Thousands Demonic Giga Orb!"

    This was Lin Antian''s super profound art!

    Ji Yuan gasped as he quickly stepped back in a hurry before he raised his saintly divine sword in a forward gesture to charge his profound energies into his ultimate sword art; the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Lin Antian was smiling, "So you''ve finally decided to reveal your trump card now."

    Ji Yuan was also smiling, "What is the fun of using my trump card so early? But you definitely deserve to witness my trump card."

    Lin Antian smirked, "Don''t say that I didn''t warn you first. My Ten Thousands Demonic Giga Orb is able to gobble up profound energies. It is formed by my life essences. You''re not the only one that can use your life essences to use a supreme profound art."

    He was warning Ji Yuan indirectly that he had a weak profound defense to guard against his Ten Thousands Demonic Giga Orb once his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light had failed to neutralize the iing attack.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Thanks for the warning."

    After saying that, he had immediately unleashed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light as a devastating beam of coiling light had fired from his saintly divine sword toward the Ten Thousands Demonic Giga Orb that was hovering rapidly like a ck hole.

    All the spectors were gasping because they could feel the strong suppression that was in the vicinity and they knew that these two cultivators were fighting with everything that they had got.

    There was a brilliant sh of light and explosive burst of profound energies when the two profound arts collided together.

    Three blinks of an eyeter, the shadow form of Ji Yuan was overwhelmed by the Ten Thousands Demonic Giga Orb and he was sent flying away with a crashing impact onto the ground!

    As for Lin Antian, he was panting heavily but he was otherwise unharmed.

    Actually the two of them were more or less equal in their profound powers. To say the least, Ji Yuan actually had the stronger profound power but half of his profound art was being neutralized by his opponent''s profound art.

    But because Ji Yuan was way weaker in his profound defenses, eventually he had lost his bnce and was flung away, sustaining several impact damage along the way.

    As Ji Yuan struggle to stand up, he was cursing almost incoherent. "This floor hits me harder than anything¡­"

    Lin Antian stared at Ji Yuan, perplexed that he had survived his profound attack.

    Actually Ji Yuan still had a secret trump card under his sleeve and he could use the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon for a second sessive time. Also he had not imbued his life force energies into his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon yet.

    But since he did not want to kill an opponent that had stayed his hand from killing his other opponents, he decided to concede the match instead.

    "Well, I con¡­"

    But all of a sudden the trial spirit had announced. "Time up! The fight is a draw!"

    Everyone: ???

    Only half the time had passed and why did it time up so quickly?!

    Xiang Li had of course known that Ji Yuan was about to surrender so she quickly said to Anyang Xiayou, "Do something about this. Don''t make my Big Brother lose or you are out of our blissful picture."

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    "I don''t help the cultivators to cheat¡­"

    Xiang Li had said righteously, "My Big Brother didn''t want to use his trump card because he isn''t fond of too much killing and he will concede because he got nothing to lose. So you''ve better do something about this. It is all your fault for choosing such a difficult opponent for my Big Brother!"

    Anyang Xiayou muttered a soft reply, "I''ve heard someone mention that she wants her Big Brother to fight a rich cultivator¡­"

 Chapter 302 What?! The Trial Is Cleared?!

    Both Ji Yuan and Lin Antian were both surprised by the oue as well.

    The trial spirit quickly exined to the spectors as well as to thebatants, "To encourage thebatants to fight harder for their victories, it is decided that the time given will be halved instead. Therefore this fight is a draw. Didn''t the spirit attendants exin to you that the rules for the 10th wing have been changed today?"

    The spectors were muttering among themselves; indeed, many of them had neglected to check the rules as they assumed that it would be the same for all the matches.

    "So it is like this¡­"

    "I know that the rules for the 10th wing battle will be different¡­"

    "It makes sense that the rules for the 10th wing battle are different than the usual ones¡­"

    Ji Yuan raised his hand to bow at his opponent while Lin Antian did the same as well; it was obvious to both of them that the two of them both still have their hidden trump cards because they still have their radiance vibes around them.

    It would still take them many rounds of fights to know who would have the upper hand in the end and 30 minutes was simple too short.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan shouted, "Wait! I''ve a question to ask from the trial spirit! Don''t send us away just yet."

    "You may ask." The trial spirit echoed from the top of the battle arena.

    Ji Yuan said, "The two of us are the first to fight for the 10th wings. But what if the others refuse to advance to the 10th wing? It will be the two of us again. We will only end up exhausting our profound strength and be food for the rest of the rest of the cultivators."

    The reason why he was asking this question was because he did not want to fight Lin Antian again so he was hoping the trial spirit would assign him a new opponent.

    "What you have said made sense." The trial spirit announced. "Therefore I will be making a special exception today to reward the courageous cultivators that have already got their 9th wings. All of you will be treated as oveing this trial and you will have ess to the 10th wing cultivation hall before you leave the trial."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "That means that I''ve cleared the trial?!"

    Among the spectors were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing; they were too startled and overjoyed that they would be clearing the trial.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were actually worried that they may be fighting against one another. They would naturally opt for a draw if they had the unfortunate chance to fight against each other of course.

    All the spectors together with Ji Yuan and Lin Antian were allughing jovially; they had all cleared the S Trial now and would be receiving their S Trial rewards.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Then am I considered to be the first to have cleared the trial or Lin Antian?"

    The trial spirit seemed to hiss before echoing, "Both of you are first."

    The rules for the trial had suddenly been changed because Xiang Li was telling to Anyang Xiayou, "Help my Big Brother toplete the trial."

    Anyang Xiayou had answered, "This is cheating and blending the rules of the trial¡­"

    "But you''re the trial spirit and you set the rules, am I right?" Xiang Li giggled.

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled, "Help the rest as well. They are all my favorite maidens."

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was in high jovial spirits as he entered the 10th wing cultivation hall.

    With him were Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Mo Bei.

    But as soon as he entered the 10th wing cultivation hall he was suddenly frowning because he had realized that he had no high grade spirit stones to do any purchases.

    "Xiang Li, we are definitely broke and can''t afford anything here."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Don''t worry Big Brother, I''m sure that today will be your lucky day."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I am not too sure about this¡­"

    All of a sudden the voice of the trial spirit had echoed above him, "No. 44 444 Ji Yuan, because you are the first to ovee the trial, you may use your ughter points to purchase the cultivation resources here. One ughter point is equivalent to 100,000 high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed because he had 63 ughter points now.

    "Xiang Li, haha¡­you''re right. Today is really my lucky day."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li giggled, "I told you so."

    Xiang Li had of course rigged it with Anyang Xiayou by persuading her to give her Big Brother a special privilege. "An immortal-step divine sword will be your new home and best of all, you got to follow me, your new spirit master."

    Ji Yuanughed to everyone, "Haha. It seems that I''ve some special privilege even though I''m dirt poor. Why don''t everyone go around to take a look first around first? If you need my help, feel free to ask me."

    Mo Beiughed jovially as he extended his hands to bow gratefully, "I shall say thanks to you first Junior Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Except for you, of course." Ji Yuanughed.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "You''re supposed to help the Mo n in the trial." Mo Bei reminded him.

    Ji Yuanughed, "But I''ve already promised in advance to help these two maidens that are with us. I can only help you third in line."

    Mo Bei frowned. "When did you just promise to help them in advance? Howe I''ve never known about this?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Just now. Didn''t you hear?"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "It is more like you are only helping them because they are two pretty maidens."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "I don''t mind if you can transform yourself into a pretty maiden as well."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were rolling their eyes; it was obvious that Ji Yuan did not want to help Mo Bei.

    Yu Jingjing was suddenly saying mncholy to Ji Yuan, "After this trial, we will go our separate ways."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Is this your second trial of this level?"

    Yu Jingjing nodded slowly, "I''ll be going to the fifth level after this. I may not return¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with augh, "I am going to the fifth level as well. See you soon."

    Yu Jingjing hummed unhappily, "How can you still be so happy about it? There is only a slim chance that we will meet. Don''t expect me to collect your corpse for you ore to your aid."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "What if we are able to meet again? Then won''t we be a perfect match?"

    Yu Jingjing smiled bitterly, "Rubbish!"

    "Or maybe Maiden Feng and I will be a perfect match instead because we got to meet each other." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Feng Minyue turned her face shyly away, "Who is a perfect match for you? It is only because¡­" She could not continue because she knew that they would meetter due to the influence that Xiang Li had exerted.

    After Feng Minyue had questioned Ji Yuan repeatedly, Ji Yuan had finally told her that it was because of Xiang Li and he had told her of the circumstances.

    Feng Minyue was astonished that Xiang Li could affect the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth to such a degree.

    Mo Bei was sighing deeply, "s! Unfortunately, we are all going to our own separate ways very soon."

    "Good to see you, Senior Mo Bei but I hope that we won''t see each other so soon." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Mo Bei growled, "Without my aid and stratagem, do you think that you can ovee this trial? You ungrateful oaf!"

    "Seriously." Ji Yuan frowned as he tried very hard to recall. "I don''t remember any aid or advice from you."

    Mo Bei grinned, "You do have my spiritual support, remember."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am going to take a look around here. See you in a while time." Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "And don''t follow me."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

 Chapter 303 The 10th Wing Cultivation Hall

    Ji Yuan was only pretending to look at the cultivation resources because everything was priced above 10mil high grade spirit stones on this level.

    Even if he had converted all his ughter points to spirit stones, he would only yield 6.3mil high grade spirit stones.

    Moreover most of the cultivation resources require at least 20 ughter points in order to obtain it; this rule was in ce to prevent the rich cultivators from purchasing anything that they wanted with just high grade spirit stones alone.

    However he was only taking a disinterested look at the cultivation resources and instead he was secretly peeping at Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing, looking intently at their slim figures, their bosoms and their butts.

    Xiang Li secretly said to Anyang Xiayou, "My Big Brother can''t afford a single thing. Go now and make things a little cheaper."

    Anyang Xiayou muttered unhappily, "These cultivation resources are my years of cumted cultivation resources¡­"

    "My Big Brother''s saintly divine swordcks a spirit entity to rehome." Xiang Li giggled. "Even with all your cumted cultivation resources cannot be equaled to a saintly divine sword. Isn''t this what you want in the first ce?"

    Anyang Xiayou smiled weakly; indeed she was trying to covet Ji Yuan''s saintly divine sword right from the very start and she was so delighted that she had almost got it.

    She had actually purposely paired Ji Yuan''s opponents to be as poor as possible unless there was no other better choice.

    "Alright¡­"

    The spirit attendants that were near Ji Yuan had suddenly approached him with delightful smiles, "Great Celestial Ji Yuan, as the top winner of this trial, you''re entitled to a 70% discount."

    Ji Yuan stared with shock, "What? 70% discount?! It is a little too good to be true haha but I will ept it. Haha."

    But still he continued to show little interest in the cultivation resources that were around him.

    Ji Yuan did not really understand alchemy so he had little knowledge of the celestial herbs. Not all cultivators know everything about all the cultivation resources in the Celestial Realm.

    At the same time, he was already a peaked great saint and he actually needed very little of these cultivation resources.

    Xiang Li prompted him, "Big Brother, don''t you want to get any profound pills for recovery? They may be useful."

    But Ji Yuan''s attention was upon Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue so therefore he did not pay any attention to what Xiang Li was saying.

    Ji Yuan was thinking dreamily; these few days, he had be best friends with both Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue. He was so d that they too had ovee the trial just like him.

    At the same time he was cursing himself, "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. When did you ever be such a lecherous cultivator? You already have Feiyue, Qianxue, Chengxi, Yan''Er, Little Princess and Qianfeng. Why are you still lusting after two maidens?"

    He was sighing, "If Jingjing knows that I have actuallye with my consorts to this ce and they are actually in the trial itself, she may very well storm off in great anger."

    "We have no future together. She is from a different celestial fraternity than me."

    His thoughts had returned to Feng Minyue, "Although she is also from a different celestial fraternity but she has entered the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth via the Deste Celestial Fraternity so I still got a chance to see her again."

    "s, I can''t court Maiden Feng. She knows my backgroundpletely. The only reason why she is treating me like a best friend now is because we have been through several trials for the past several months. Naturally she will trust me because she thinks that I have no other ulterior motive¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "But actually I''ve no other ulterior motives except for her. Is this even count as a motive? If I know that I will fall so madly in love with her then I will definitely try to behave myself better. But now I''ve already ruined my reputation in front of her and in her eyes, she is probably thinking that I am just a good-for-nothing lustful cultivator."

    Xiang Li had of course heard Ji Yuan and she was giggling, "It is alright to be a lustful cultivator. They all love you Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "No one will love a lustful cultivator. Xiang Li, you''re a nuisance to me during the day andpletely useless at night. Can''t you see that I am reflecting over my past wrong actions? As my loyal little sister, you should be d that I am seeing the errors of my old ways."

    "But Big Brother, your heart tells me that you want to be a lustful cultivator. If anyone were to touch them, it is the same as greening you and you will fight them to the death." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know Xiang Li, I''m beginning to think that you are my heart demon. I should get rid of you instead."

    Xiang Li giggled, ignoring what Ji Yuan was saying; it was because she knew that her Big Brother was only saying things out of jest and she could feel his fond heart for her.<sub> </sub>

    "Don''t make meugh, Big Brother."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw that Yu Jingjing was staring at a beautiful zither.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Jingjing had lost her heaven-step zither in the trial. The divine sword that I''ve given to her can''t rece her original profound treasure¡­"

    As he said, he had already walked quietly to Yu Jingjing who was startled by him.

    She was indeed looking at a beautiful heaven-step zither; this blue zither had a wondrous profound animus around it and it could also transform into a divine sword as well. Even though it was heaven-step profound treasure but it looked like this zither had several hidden powers and that was the reason why her eyes were captivated by it.

    Ji Yuan saw that it costs 13 million high grade spirit stones and 33 ughter points.

    Immediately he said to the spirit attendants around him, "I will get this for Maiden Yu here. Please exchange my ughter points to high grade spirit stones."

    Yu Jingjing was startled. "Ji Yuan? This is for me? No, this is too precious. You ought to get something for yourself. After all, you have risked your life for these ughter points."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Nothing ddens my heart more than seeing your heart being dden."

    Yu Jingjing gasped softly. She was indeed feeling very touched and was speechless¡­

    The spirit attendant was now saying to Yu Jingjing, "The name of this profound treasure is the Zither of Divine Faithful Light¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning in secret and he was looking quite sheepish; it was because he had suddenly realized that he had only 63 ughter points. This Zither of Divine Faithful Light would cost 33 ughter points and 3.25mil high grade spirit stones even with 70% discount. That was to say that he still owed the trial spirit 250k high grade spirit stones!

    He took a nce at the expression of the spirit attendants before he heaved a soft sigh of relief in secret; it seems that the trial spirit fails her maths. Haha¡­

    Actually Anyang Xiayou had already said to Xiang Li, "Is he trying to rip me off? He doesn''t have enough ughter points to make the payment."

    Xiang Li had pleaded with a face-palmed expression, "It is only 3 ughter point difference. Don''t be a miser."

    Yu Jingjing said to Ji Yuan, "Please take all my spirit stones¡­"

    "No need." Ji Yuan said with a manly vibes. "This is my gift for you."

    Yu Jingjing was extremely touched. It was because she may be from a rich celestial sect but 13 mil high grade spirit stones were still an outrageous amount to begin with.

    She muttered with hot flushes, "You''re actually a rich cultivator. Why did you have to dress like a pauper all the time?"

    Ji Yuan could only smile most bitterly; he was actually a pauper.

    He pretended tough jovially while he walked away.

    He spent some time pretending to look around but his attention was on Feng Minyue.

    She seemed disinterested in any of the cultivation resources and was just browsing.

    As for Mo Bei, Ji Yuan was shocked that he had made three purchases that totaled a whopping 40mil high grade spirit stones.

    Ji Yuan began to curse silently; Damn, this Mo Bei is truly a rich cultivator¡­

    However he did not know that Mo Bei was sighing in secret; he had tried to impress Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing with his wealth and had hinted to them that he was willing to lend them some high grade spirit stones but it appeared that he was rejected soundly.

    He was scratching his head as he wondered, "What is possibly wrong with my tactics? I haven''t even got the chance to hint to them that we should spend the night together before we exit the trial. It is impossible that Ji Yuan is more handsome than me. He is just a beardless cultivator now¡­"

    At the end of the day the four of them exited the 10th Wing Cultivation Hall together. It was now the time for them to im their S Rank trial reward and to exit the trial.

 Chapter 304 Double Kisses + S Rank Reward

    Ji Yuan, Mo Bei, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were back in the hallway of the Jade Mansion again.

    Mo Bei sighed, "It is a pity that the trial has ended for us. May your trial rewards be your lucky urrence. Farewell now."

    Yu Jingjing nodded quietly, "Farewell now¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Farewell¡­"

    All of a sudden Yu Jingjing had suddenly drawn close to him and she had given him a kiss on his cheek.

    This stunned Mo Bei and startled Feng Minyue.

    "Please don''t get the wrong idea." Yu Jingjing said mncholy to Ji Yuan. "This is just for all the aids that you''ve given me for this trial. Without you, I may not even be able to ovee this trial. And thank you for avenging my honor against that despicable Tang Yumen who had outraged me in front of so many cultivators."

    With a second lingering look, she had suddenly sped off and disappeared quickly.

    Ji Yuan was still blinking and staring after her as he touched his cheek; he could not believe that Yu Jingjing had just kissed him.

    He began to mutter almost incoherently, "Maybe in your celestial fraternity, it is alright to kiss someone else''s cheeks but in my celestial fraternity, kissing the cheeks of a man means that you''re going to be his consort¡­"

    Mo Bei too, had walked off while murmuring. "There is no way that my charms are lesser than this rascal. I am after all, a rich and handsome bachelor¡­"

    Ji Yuan was still staring at the corridor that Yu Jingjing had disappeared from view when Feng Minyue had suddenly tiptoed in front of him and kissed him gently on his lips.

    This caused Ji Yuan to be stunned and his heart was pacing hard.

    Feng Minyue smiled shyly, "Don''t get me wrong too."

    Without exining herself, she had walked off while leaving Ji Yuan stunned with disbelief.

    He was suddenly touching both his cheek and lips at the same time.

    "Why did Maiden Feng¡­kiss me all of a sudden?"

    Xiang Li shouted excitingly, "Big Brother, you dumbass! She likes you of course!"

    Ji Yuan stammered, "But did she just say don''t get her wrong? What this supposes to mean?"

    "I''m very, very sure that she likes you. Go bang her, Big Brother!" Xiang Li giggled while pping her hands.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I need to talk to you about your abnormal and outrageous behavior. It is about time that we have a little talk about it¡­"

    "But Big Brother, she likes you! Can''t you tell?" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I really can''t tell, you know. What if I take a misstep? You should know that my reputation is currently very bad at the moment."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "I wonder when Big Brother has ever got a good reputation in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know Xiang Li. Let me remind you something. I am the MC of this story and not you. Don''t screw me up with your poor assumptions."

    Xiang Li returned a perplexed look, "I am not the MC?"

    "Of course you''re not. You are just my sidekick." Ji Yuanughed. "And I am the one that is getting the harem and not you."

    Xiang Li began to giggle silently; But I am the one that is collecting Big Brother so I am the MC¡­

    Ji Yuan wasughing to himself, "What a wonderful day. Today I have gotten the kisses from two of the most beautiful maidens in this trial. This is better than any rewards. Not even the S Rank Trial can match this¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had now entered through the portal to im his S Trial reward and he was now saying to the dark spatial space. "Now, this S Trial better to be good or I will really be very, very disappointed."

    The Trial Spirit answered him coolly, "Didn''t you say that your two kisses are better than any rewards? Then why are you having such a high expectations for your S Rank reward?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan replied shamelessly with a big frown, "Did I say anything like this?"

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    "I am going to give you a reward then you have to choose whether to go to the next level or into the limbo. There is no option for you to remain on the 4th level because this is your second trial that you''ve cleared already."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed, "I will naturally choose to go to the 5th level of course. My destiny is on the 6th level or so say the Diviner Mo Ming."

    "You know. Even though this S Trial is a little tough so far but you have to agree that I am a genius among geniuses, am I right? Or else I won''t be standing here."

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued to chuckle, "Even though I know that you''ve been working to trap me and is waiting to mock me for my missteps but I am too brilliant to fall into any of your traps. Therefore it is only fitting that you shall reward me with something awesome."

    Anyang Xiayou turned to ask Xiang Li in secret, "Is he really your master? He is a little too masochist."

    Xiang Li giggled back in secret, "That is my awesome Big Brother alright!"

    Anyang Xiayou sighed in secret as she wondered if she was making the right choice for her future before she morphed back into the Trial Spirit that was now speaking to Ji Yuan, "Alright then. I will promise you that your reward will be the most awesome ever."

    "Really?!" Ji Yuan chuckled. "That will be so awesome. What is it? Don''t keep me in the suspense! Haha."

    The Trial Spirit echoed alluringly, "I shall grant you a sentient spirit entity for your immortal-step divine sword."

    She had actually wanted the saintly divine sword to host her spirit but Xiang Li had insisted to her, "That saintly divine sword is mine. If Big Brother dies at least I can still dwell inside it and help to avenge my Big Brother in the future. As for you, you can take the immortal-step divine sword."

    An immortal-step divine sword was still a godly existence for her so Anyang Xiayou agreed readily.

    Ji Yuan was startled and was gasping, "I have a living spirit entity for my immortal-step divine sword? That is too awesome. That means that I''ve two sentient living spirit soon."

    But he was soon growling, "Why don''t you grant me a sentient spirit entity in my saintly divine sword instead? Isn''t it a better reward instead?"

    Xiang Li shouted secretly to Anyang Xiayou, "NO!"

    The Trial Spirit appeared to sigh before saying, "Your saintly divine sword is too impure hence I can''t."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned as he rubbed his chin to ponder immediately, "Previously my saintly divine sword is home to Xiang Li. It must be her impure spirit that is causing this. Xiang Li is seriously too impure¡­"

    But he was soonughing as he shouted excitingly, "Xiang Li! Look! Later, I will introduce you to a new friend. Haha."

    "Um¡­where is Xiang Li? Why isn''t she responding? She must be sleeping again. She really got a fragile heart. She must be upset that I''ve dered that she isn''t the MC. Never mind. I can surprise herter with a new friend."

    The Trial Spirit announced, "Then it shall be granted to you¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan suddenly shouted a hold.

    The Trial Spirit: ???

    "Is my sentient spirit a male or a female?" Ji Yuan asked anxiously.

    "Is this a concern to you?" The Trial Spirit almost burst out withughter.

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Of course it is! My Xiang Li is a vulnerable and sweet maiden. She is also gullible as well. If it is a male sentient spirit then my Xiang Li will be too vulnerable to abuses."

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    Actually your Xiang Li is anything but vulnerable¡­

    Xiang Li was greatly touched by Ji Yuan as she nodded in secret; Yes, I am really a vulnerable maiden¡­

    The Trial Spirit said bitterly, "Don''t worry, your new spirit entity is a female. Are you satisfied now?"

    "Hold!" Ji Yuan said again. "The new sentient spirit entity isn''t you, I suppose? If so, I don''t want as well. As you know, you have tried to rip me off in this trial. What if you try to rip me offter?"

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    This man has so many demands¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling and she was nodding; that is my Big Brother alright.

    Ji Yuan pointed out, "Spirit entities have to obey a sacred spiritw and they can''t lie you know. So answer me honestly."

    Ji Yuan was right of course and this suddenly put Anyang Xiayou in a big dilemma because she had to answer him truthfully.

    But Xiang Li suddenly giggled, "You''re the trial spirit here but outside of here, you''re Anyang Xiayou and no longer represent any trial. Therefore you can answer my Big Brother that it won''t be the Trial Spirit that will be his new spirit entity."

    Anyang Xiayou was rolling her eyes; this Xiang Li was too shameless! Where did she learn all these from?!

    But she quickly said to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry. Your new sentient spirit won''t be rted to the Trial Spirit."

    Yes, once she is out of here, she won''t be a Trial Spirit and won''t be rted to the Trial Spirit.

    Ji Yuan looked extremely pleased and satisfied. "Well I guess that this will be my S Trial reward then."

    He was muttering with a grin, "Well, it is better that my new sentient spirit entity be an innocent Lolita as well..."

    Anyang Xiayoupletely ignored his murmuring and pretended not to hear...

    The Trial Spirit opened two portals, one yellow and one blue. "The blue portal will lead you to the next level while the yellow one will lead you to the limbo where you will stay until the end of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuanughed as he walked toward the blue portal, "I will pick the blue portal of course, haha."

    As Anyang Xiayou watched Ji Yuan walked toward the blue portal, there was a sudden regret in her heart as she thought; is this the right decision? Why is it that I feel that both Xiang Li and Ji Yuan are both undependable all of a sudden¡­

 Chapter 305 This Is Really Not What You All Think It Is Again!

    Ji Yuan had now exited the spatial room and he had suddenly found himself surrounded by lofty ck cliffs.

    "Um, so I am on the fifth level now?"

    Ji Yuan felt a sense of achievement because this was actually his very first time in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth.

    ording to statistics, only 1/3 of the saint cultivators can make it to the fifth level, only 1/10 of the golden supremacies can make it to the fifth level and only 1/100 of the golden celestials can make it to the fifth level.

    He was part of the 1/3 of the saint cultivators now and he considered it not a bad achievement since this was his very first time.

    Heughed, "I''ve heard that it is pretty hard to actually reach to the upper levels of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. This isn''t so hard after all."

    All of a sudden, he began to dart his golden eyes around to check if there was someone else around before he heaved a soft sigh of relief; he was most afraid that he would be heard by a trial spirit and was instantly wary. Considering that he had a spate of bad luck recently, anything would have happened to him.

    I must really keep my pride in check¡­

    He was smiling immediately when he had recalled that Maiden Feng Minyue had kissed him.

    He was actually in the S Rank Trial because he was tailing her.

    "Why is it that she got such a mesmerizing hold on me¡­" Ji Yuan began to sigh softly.

    "And what does she means by it isn''t what I think? Does she likes me or not?" Ji Yuan was greatly perplexed. "She kisses my lips¡­any men will not think otherwise. Is she telling me that she doesn''t like me actually but she is willing to kiss my lips because that is only a gratitude for helping her to ovee her trial?"

    Ji Yuan was really hoping that Feng Minyue had romantic notions about him.

    But he was actually not a fool for believing that a ssy maiden like her would actually like him.

    He heaved a soft sigh, "So maybe that what she means by it isn''t what I think¡­"

    "Maybe I should keep a low profile from now onward or I will risk losing all my reputation in front of her." He made a strong resolve to stay out of troubles.

    "Ji Yuan?!" A beautiful voice gasped.

    Ji Yuan looked up and he was soon grinning; it was because he had recognized Yu Jingjing.

    "Why are you here? And why are we in the same vicinity?" Yu Jingjing had a most perplexed look.

    She was still gasping with shock as she quickly made her way down from the ck cliffs where Ji Yuan was.

    Ji Yuan was actually not surprised to see her and was thinking; credits to Xiang Li! She actually knows what I''m thinking. For once, Xiang Li is actually useful¡­

    Yu Jingjing was trembling and she was secretly overjoyed that she could see Ji Yuan again.

    She was thinking; maybe our destinies have not ended yet¡­

    All of a sudden she gasped as she lost her bnce all of a sudden because she had sped down too fast.

    But Ji Yuan had caught hold of her waist and was holding her tight as he asked. "Are you alright?"

    Yu Jingjing was trembling in Ji Yuan''s embrace and she was staring nkly into Ji Yuan''s deep golden eyes and his beautiful face.

    She was suddenly overwhelmed by his manly charms and was trembling lightly under his light touches.

    Before she knows it, they were already kissing passionately and she could already feel the curve of his firm chest pressing upon her bosoms.

    She was gasping all of a sudden because Ji Yuan''s fingers had moved his fingers from her waist to the soft curve of her butt.

    Just as she was about to stop him, his deft fingers had already moved under her short skirt and were rubbing her underneath¡­

    Actually Ji Yuan was still under the effect of the masculine profound pills that he had taken. He had only used his profound strength to suppress as much as possible.

    Whether if he would be so bold as to what he was doing now without the effects of the masculine profound pills was an unknown answer for the time being and he deserved a benefit of doubt.

    But one thing was for certain; after Ji Yuan had caught hold of Yu Jingjing, he was now on fire.

    He had used his absolute willpower to resist Yu Jingjing when they had kissed all of a sudden but when they were suddenly kissing each other passionately and he could feel her wet tongue, he had immediately thrown his absolute willpower out of the window.

    And of course there was Xiang Li who had suddenly emerged from his soul sea again and she was urging her big brother, "Bang her, bang her! YES! YES! YES!"

    Therefore Ji Yuan had suddenly lost his constraints and he was cursing silently; I just have to me Xiang Liter on. She is the main reason why I am losing control of myself¡­

    And one thing led to the another¡­

    Yu Jingjing was flushing and her heart was pacing rapidly; shepletely lost the will to resist Ji Yuan and she was even enjoying his light touches¡­

    She was gasping again when Ji Yuan''s fingers had pulled aside her panties and were fingering inside her¡­

    Ji Yuan was totally on fire and he wanted to devour Yu Jingjing now.

    He was like a raging unstoppable beast now. Nothing in the world can stop him from devouring the stunning Yu Jingjing and he wanted to bang her right now, in this very ce¡­

    "Ji Yuan! What are you doing?!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan sanity had returned and he quickly broke free of Yu Jingjing panicky.

    It was because a group of maidens had suddenly appeared out of the blue and he had recognized their voices; they were Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi.

    They were all gasping with shock.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?!"

    "Why are you with her?"

    "Did you just¡­"

    "What are your hands doing?"

    Yu Jingjing was so startled that she quickly unsheathed her heaven-step zither because she had recognized them as the top cultivators from the other three factions.

    In fact after witnessing their prowess in the battle arena, she was a little afraid of them as well; in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, the stronger cultivators would often attack one another for additional cultivation resources.

    But Ji Yuan caught hold of her right shoulder as he said weakly, "Rx. They are my friends¡­"

    Ling Feiyue folded her arms with a cold smile, "We''re more than just friends."<sub> </sub>

    Then she turned to Yu Jingjing to say, "Did he say that he is a bachelor or something simr? We are all his beloved consorts."

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "Except for me. The three of them are."

    Yu Jingjing gasped with shock!

    These three top cultivators from the other three factions were all Ji Yuan''s consorts?!

    Moreover they were all top beauties in any celestial fraternities!

    She could not believe what she was hearing and she turned to Ji Yuan for rity.

    But Ji Yuan was instead saying to the four maidens, "Look here. This is really not what you all think it is."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "You mean your passionate kiss is a fake or someone is controlling your dirty hands earlier?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he was cursing silently; Sisi was purposely adding salt to his wounds¡­

    Xiang Li was secretly saying to Anyang Xiayou, "See! I told you it will be fun right?"

    Anyang Xiayou was smiling, "It does seem a little interesting now. Will they fight with one another? That maiden that had just spoken, she doesn''t seem to like your Big Brother very much."

    Xiang Li giggled, "You''re wrong. They are madly in love with each other. She is Maiden Shui Xisi but my Big Brother calls her Sisi usually. Sisi is actually trying to warn him that the others had already seen everything but my Big Brother doesn''t seem to realize that she is only trying to help him in secret."

    Anyang Xiayou smiled weakly, "You seem to know your Big Brother very well."

    Xiang Li chuckled, "Of course!"

    Anyang Xiayou was soon saying, "This Sisi is a half-immortal. She is stronger than most peaked saints. How did your Big Brother manage to win her heart given that he is only a mere celestial."

    And she was pointing at Bai Qianfeng, "And this maiden here, she is an immortal cultivator and easiest the strongest in my trial. I can do nothing against her and I can''t spy on her either."

    Xiang Liughed jovially, "That is why I told you that this is interesting. Now you believe me?"

    Anyang Xiayou nodded lightly, "This is really interesting¡­and intriguing¡­"

    Sentient trial spirit entities have little emotion attachments to the cultivators. It is because they have seen plenty of ''interesting things'' in their trials. So unlike the cultivators who have strong emotions like love and hatred, they are actually quite emotionless to such things.

    But if a celestial cultivator were to bang some immortal cultivators then it may be a little interesting to the sentient trial spirit entities.

    Anyang Xiayou turned to ask Xiang Li, "You didn''t happen to be a peeping tom, aren''t you?"

    "Of course not! I watch openly." Dered Xiang Li with great righteousness. "Moreover they are all my sisters."

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    "That immortal cultivator can sense us. She has the seventh sense¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "She allows me to watch her while my Big Brother bangs her."

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    Anyang Xiayou: ¡­

    In the meantime Yu Jingjing was almost bleary with tears. She was suddenly caught in the most awkward situation; It was as though Ji Yuan would abandon her at any moment of time and she would be driven away from his presence¡­

    "Ji Yuan, you are here already? So is everyone." An alluring voice said all of a sudden.

    Yu Jingjing was even more startled; it was because Feng Minyue had suddenly appeared out of the blue.

    During the trial, she had be the best friends with her.

    She was even more startled because Feng Minyue was also not supposed to be in the same ce as her since everyone would be teleported to a random cultivation world after exiting a trial.

    But at the same time she was d; at least she can party up with Feng Minyue and leave this sad ce¡­

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was covering his face with his palm; he hadpletely forgotten that he was supposed to be teleported to the same vicinity with his beloved maidens. When he saw Yu Jingjing all of a sudden, he hadpletely forgotten about this.

    Or rather when Yu Jingjing had identally tripped and he had caught hold of her, he hadpletely forgotten about it.

    Now he did not know how to exin to Feng Minyue anymore since there were so many witnesses to his misdeed¡­

    When Feng Minyue saw that Yu Jingjing was looking extremely flustered and could almost burst out with tears at any time, she said gently to her. "Come, let me introduce you to everyone. They are actually my friends and they are not as unfriendly as they look."

    Yu Jingjing was stunned, "You know them as well?!"

    Shui Xisi grabbed Feng Minyue''s arm and chuckled, "We are the best of friends. Any friends of my Sister Saintess Feng here is also my friend."

    Then she pretended to gaze coldly at Ji Yuan, "We''re unfriendly to him only because he is a badass rascal."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were all giggling jovially all of a sudden; they had been trying to suppress theirughter for quite some time now and they were only too d to see Ji Yuan again.

    Ling Feiyue pulled Yu Jingjing to her with a soft chuckle, "I am Ji Yuan''s main consort. Come sister, let me tell you more about him and you can judge whether he is a badass rascal or not. I don''t want you to be cheated by someone like him."

    Little Princess was also giggling, "Count me in as well. I know Ji Yuan for the longest time. I can tell you that he is nothing but a drunkard."

    "He is most unkind to animals as well." Bai Qianfeng added with a gentle smile.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are they about to take this opportunity to gossip about me?!

 Chapter 306 Green And Greener

    <Maturity Warning: This Chapter and next chapter isn''t suitable for all audiences>

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted as if he was quite afraid that he would lose all his face and any remaining good reputation in front of both Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue, "Haha. Why don''t we talk about what we''ve received as our rewards for this S Rank Trial instead?"

    He was panicky trying to divert the attention from himself and to buy himself some time to think of a solution to get himself out of this tricky situation.

    "Xiang Li, help me to think of a story!" Ji Yuan quickly said to Xiang Li in his soul sea.

    No reply.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Isn''t she active a few minutes ago when she is shouting bang, bang so excitingly? When troublese, she has fled¡­

    Anyang Xiayou turned to Xiang Li with a startled expression, "You can ignore your master''smands?"

    Spirit entities are bonded to their masters and areply to obey them.

    Xiang Li giggled, "He is my Big Brother now! Moreover, we are never master and servant in the first ce! I am Big Brother''spletely useless spirit entity! This is written in our spiritual contract very clearly!"

    Anyang Xiayou smiled weakly, "You sound terribly proud of being a useless spirit entity¡­"

    All of a sudden Anyang Xiayou had a spinning spiritual headache; if Xiang Li is really the Goddess'' Tear then she can certainly rewritten the spiritualws because the spiritualws are not bonded to her anyway.

    She had touched Xiang Li to gain her experiences and was shocked to learn that she may well possibly be the Goddess Tear. But Xiang Li doesn''t seem to be aware of this because she will forget or can''t remember if anything rted to her existence is mentioned¡­

    But she is different from Xiang Li; she has to acknowledge this Ji Yuan as her master and will beply to obey hismands.

    Ji Yuan looked nervously at everyone, "Erm, I''m that all of you have something interesting for your S Rank Trial reward, am I right? Why don''t we share what we''ve got?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were all exchanging nces with one another and were trying to suppress theirughter; they knew Ji Yuan very well and knew that he was just trying to divert attention for the time being.

    So they were purposely trying not to reply him first so that he would be anxious first.

    Ji Yuan broke into cold sweat when he saw the silence air. He began to smile weakly after a while, "So how about my suggestions?"

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly smiled as she waved her sleeves to reveal a beautiful green cockatoo on her right shoulder. "This is a green cockatiel. Isn''t he beautiful? Do you agree that he makes apatible pair to my Yuanyuan? I call him Gtiel, meaning he''s a Gant Cockatiel."

    The green cockatiel immediately stood very upright and began to whistle loudly; the crest on its head immediately fanned upright.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned with displeasure, "This stupid bird seems to be making wolf whistles."

    He was actually thinking; Green? Green Cock?! And his name is ''Gant Cock''?! Is this bird trying to green me?

    He had suddenly noticed that Gtiel had turned his head to look down at Bai Qianfeng''s bosoms and was whistling nonstop.

    Gtiel was also nodding as he whistled, slipping his ws closer down to Qianfeng''s bosoms¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He immediately hissed and growled as he picked the green cockatiel from Qianfeng''s right shoulder, "Hey stupid bird. What are you looking at? And what do you think that you''re doing?"

    Then heughed jovially as he looked down below the belly of Gtial, "You look like an impotent little thing. You don''t even have a little precious so how are you going to be a gant cock?"

    All of a sudden Gtiel had pped his wings; in a blink of an eye, he had pped his wings a dozen times on Ji Yuan''s beautiful face.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan''s face was also scratched by Gtiel''s sharp talons!

    "You stupid bird! You dare to p and scratch my face!" Ji Yuan quickly thrown the bird away.

    But as he thrown the bird away, he was suddenly bitten on his leg by Yuanyuan as well!

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Dang! What the heck¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng giggled, "Gtiel isn''t an ordinary cockatiel. He is a spiritual divine beast and he can understand what you are saying."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly at the hissing Gtiel that was now staring at him fiercely, "Then why didn''t you say so earlier¡­"

    Then he pointed at Yuanyuan, "And why is she biting me? Get her off me."

    Bai Qianfengughed softly, "My lord, Yuanyuan and Gtiel are now bonded together. Insulting Gtiel means insulting Yuanyuan as well."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "One is a lizard and the other one is a bird. How the heck can they be together¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan gave a loud yell; he was suddenly panicky fighting off Gtiel from his face and kicking Yuanyuan from his leg.

    "Someone help me! And get them off me!"

    Ling Feiyueughed, "Why are you so afraid of? It is only a few scratches. It not as though they can really harm you. Your wounds will regenerate in no time."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "This stupid bird is trying to poke my eyes and this stupid lizard here is a seventh rank deste monster! Don''t forget that I''ve weak profound defenses. They really hurt! These stupid animals are forcing me to retaliate against them."

    And Ji Yuan had immediately lifted his sword fingers in a show of his will to retaliate.

    Bai Qianfeng frowned unhappily as she recalled them from Ji Yuan, "Yuanyuan, Gtiel. Back."

    Immediately Yuanyuan and Gtiel ceased their attacks on Ji Yuan and had returned to the side of Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng said, "My lord. I don''t understand why you seem to have something against my Gtiel."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I don''t. Your bird is the one that had attacked me first."

    It took Ji Yuan a strong will not to mention ''stupid bird''.

    Gtiel hissed loudly to make his protest and even Yuanyuan was growling loudly.

    Little Princess, Shui Xisi and even Feng Minyue were all smiling.

    Even Yu Jingjing was astonished by the sight and she could not resist a smile.

    Bai Qianfeng suddenly chuckled softly, "It isn''t like Gtiel can green you. He is just a cute little green bird."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he protested weakly, "I didn''t think this way at all."

    "So what did you get?" Little Princess asked all of a sudden with a wry smile. "After all, you are one of the two top cultivators in the S Rank Trial."

    Ji Yuan immediatelyughed as he said proudly, "I''ve got a second sentient spirit entity as my reward."

    Immediately he took out his immortal sword, "She is inside here."

    All the maidens were all gasping with shock; a spirit entity is rare enough but a sentient spirit entity is a million times rarer!

    And Ji Yuan already had Xiang Li as his sentient spirit entity.

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "Is this really true? How can you be so lucky?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Maybe he is making up a story. Sisters, do you all still remember that Ji Yuan had once said that he had a second sword spirit but in the end he can''t even produce it to show it to us."

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "I did indeed have a second sword spirit. Erm, but this sword spirit is a little dormant at the moment."

    Little Princess hummed, "Our lord really takes us as fools. No one can have two sword spirits. It is unheard of."

    Then she winked at Yu Jingjing, "Don''t get cheated by his honey words. He is always lying."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing returned with a flush look, "I did not and he¡­didn''t cheat me."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I didn''t lie about my sword spirit."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Then why don''t you summon your spirit entity for us to take a little look if you''re lying or not?"

    Little Princess nodded, "This is the best way."

    Shui Xisi added with a chuckle, "Or maybe he is just talking big to impress us."

    Ji Yuan looked nervously at his immortal sword, "You have better be real¡­if you in there,e and let us have a little look at you."

    He was suddenly hesitant now; what if the Trial Spirit had given him a talking parrot spirit entity and had masked it as a sentient spirit entity? Nowadays the Trial Spirits are all quite cunning so you will never know that this will actually happen¡­

    "Yes Master." A fascinating light voice responded from Ji Yuan''s immortal-step divine sword and there was a soft glow that was now emitting from it.

    The soft glow seemed to levitate from the immortal sword to the ground as the spiritual aura of a spirit entity could be felt taking shape by everyone''s divine sense,

    An astonishing peerless maiden with a strong spiritual air had suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

    She had light green long hair and was wearing a green silken dress but her silken dress was so translucent that it left nothing to the imaginations.

    A stunned Ji Yuan was looking at the curve of her bosoms and down below.

    He was suddenly gulping and was trembling lightly. Trembling excitedly of course.

    But he was rapidly losing control of himself because he had failed to suppress the effects of the masculine profound pills earlier and he was being interrupted when he was about to bang Yu Jingjing.

    His pipe now was about to burst after seeing his new sentient spirit entity¡­

    Ji Yuan was secretly thinking; I need to do something about this real quickly¡­and I need help fast¡­

    All the maidens were stunned as well; they had never thought that Ji Yuan''s new spirit entity would be such an astonishing peerless beauty.

    Ji Yuan began tough jovially, "This is too sinful. You''re as beautiful as Xiang Li. What is your name?"

    Anyang Xiayou replied quietly as she bowed with her head humbly, "Fairy Anyang Xiayou¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a chuckle, "I know that the spirit entities all have impossible long names. Let me call you Fairy Anyang instead."

    Fairy Anyang replied humbly, "So shall it be, Master."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Your Master name is Ji Yuan and these are all my confidants and friends."

    He could not turn his lustful eyes from her as he sighed softly, "Too bad, she is only a spirit entity¡­"

    Then with a broad grin, he turned to the rest to say. "Look! What do you think of my new sentient spirit entity?"

    All the maidens were stunned by what they had seen and were speechless; they had never thought that Ji Yuan really got a sentient spirit entity and she was actually such a beautiful spirit entity.

    Ji Yuan had already returned his attention to his new spirit entity, "I have also another spirit entity and she is Xiang Li. In the future, the two of you will be closepanions."

    "Xiang Li! Xiang Li! Quickly wake up from your nap! I''ve got a friend to introduce you. Haha. You will be pleased with your new friend!" Ji Yuan began to shout loudly in his soul sea for Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li promptly appeared as she giggled, "Fairy Anyang, how are you? I am Fairy Xiang Li!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially and proudly, "Haha. I actually have two very beautiful spirit entities now. The two of you are looking sopatible."

    Xiang Li was giggling as well as she said silently; Of course Anyang is beautiful! I''ve picked her myself!"

    Fairy Anyang smiled respectfully, "Fairy Xiang Li, I am pleased to be serving the same master as you."

    "Haha, what do you all think about my Fairy Anyang? This is Feiyue, this is Little Princess, this is Qianfeng, this is Sisi, this is Maiden Feng and this is Maiden Yu Jingjing. Haha." Ji Yuan promptly made the introduction.

    Ji Yuan asked Fairy Anyang, "I hope that you aren''t as useless as Xiang Li. So, what can you do actually?"

    Xiang Li protested immediately, "I''m notpletely useless. I can enhance other spirit entities except for myself of course."

    Fairy Anyang smiled angelically as she raised her fingers and immediately there was a profound energy that struck the steep ck cliff with a thunderous explosion!

    Everyone was startled that this Fairy Anyang could actually make an offensive attack and moreover her offensive attack was quite powerful too!

    "I can gather the spiritual force in the surroundings to make profound attacks. That is to say, I can also enhance the profound power of your immortal sword greatly as well." Fairy Anyang said humbly.

    Ji Yuan was dazzled by her disy and he was stammering, "Erm, that sounds very strong. Are you sure that you''re just a spirit entity."

    Bai Qianfeng was startled as well as she looked at Fairy Anyang, "She is a superior sentient spirit. But I''ve never heard of such a high level superior sentient spirit that can exist in the Celestial Realm. Even in the Immortal and Deste Realm, you can''t find anything that is like her."

    Ji Yuanughed it off, "But the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is from the Immortal Realm and the rewards are generally better. Therefore it is not surprising at all. Moreover she is a reward frompleting the S Rank Trial. Don''t forget that I am in the first position together with Lin Antian."

    Bai Qianfeng looked with suspicion at Fairy Anyang as she frowned softly, "Maybe¡­"

    But she actually had her doubts because Ji Yuan''s rewards seemed to be too good.

    Ling Feiyue was staring with disbelief, "Howe Ji Yuan always have such luck with his trial. This time we are in the same trial but my reward isn''t that good."

    Ji Yuanughed, "But you''re not first."

    But he was frowning all of a sudden, "That means that I have to be extra wary of Lin Antian. His reward must be equally good because he is first."

    Xiang Li secretly whispered to Fairy Anyang, "What is the reward of that Lin Antian?"

    Fairy Anyang answered Xiang Li in secret, "He got a divine tree. After he has cultivated it sessfully, he will be immune to all poisons, even corrosive poisons from the deste beasts."

    "That sounds useless against my Big Brother, don''t you think so? This is an S Rank reward?" Xiang Li began to ponder.

    Ji Yuan did not have any venomous techniques so therefore it is useless against him.

    "It is extremely useful in the trial and outside." Fairy Anyang answered. "Moreover this divine tree can offer the cultivator resistances to the five elements, including attacks against sword energies."

    Xiang Li was startled, "Then isn''t this too powerful? My Big Brother will be screwed against this Lin Antian in the future."

    But Fairy Anyang returned a soft giggle, "Don''t worry. As long as I am Ji Yuan''s spirit entity, I can also protect him against the five elements, including rendering him immune to poisons."

    "Woot! Anyang, you''re so useful." Xiang Li chuckled. "I am so right to pick you!"

    In the meantime Feng Minyue was asking Ji Yuan all of a sudden, "I''ve heard from you that you''re going to give this immortal sword to Qianxue. Surely this must be a most wondrous gift for Maiden Qianxue."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes before heughed, "I haven''t promised it yet, did I? I was merely suggesting only. Haha! I am sure that I can find something to repay the Mo n. Diviner Mo Ming says I only have to help the Mo n in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Well, I did help Mo Bei to clear his S Rank Trial. Maybe he is so grateful to me after he had got his S Rank Reward. Haha¡­"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    In the meantime Mo Bei was inspecting his S Trial reward as he stared nkly at a ck pig.

    "The Trial Spirit says that my reward is a Demonic Dragonpeak. But why is it that it looks more like a pig than any dragon? Did I misheard Dragonpig as Dragonpeak instead¡­"

    Mo Bei frowned further at the ck pig, "Or maybe I should make bacon out of you first¡­"

 Chapter 307 The Raging Demon Beast Is Unleashed!

    Ji Yuan did not want to care about his good reputation anymore in front of the maidens anymore.

    It was because his ''pipe'' was about to burst now.

    His face was extremely flustered and for once, he was d to the stupid bird Gtiel for scratching his face because none of the maidens would be able to notice his exact countenance.

    He quickly excused himself by saying weakly, "Fairy Anyang, back to the immortal sword. Lay in slumber and shut off all your external senses until I have summoned you again."

    Just as the maidens all thought that Ji Yuan was only keeping his immortal sword to hear about their rewards, Ji Yuan walked away with an awkward sway.

    "Ji Yuan, where are you going?"

    "My lord?"

    "Ji Yuan?"

    But Ji Yuan continued to walk off as he muttered weakly, "This is the fifth level and there may be enemies lurking in the dark. I''m going to scout for a little while in these treacherous mountains and I will be back very soon. Don''t follow me. This is the solo responsibility of the only man in this party¡­"

    Everyone was startled and they had all noticed that Ji Yuan was not looking right or too good.

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "Don''t tell me that he has some serious injuries in thest trial and he is keeping his injuries from us?"

    Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all anxious now after hearing from Ling Feiyue.

    Bai Qianfeng quickly moved her lips to divine whisper to the ears of Xiang Li who was following Ji Yuan, "Xiang Li, what is going on? You have better tell us honestly."

    Xiang Li turned her head around with a giggle as she disyed a hand gesture to Bai Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng was stunned as she took a step back.

    When the rest of the maidens saw Bai Qianfeng''s expression, they were even more anxious for Ji Yuan.

    But Bai Qianfeng quickly regained herposure with a soft sigh, "Maiden Sisi, maybe you should go take a look."

    Shui Xisi frowned unhappily, "Why me? I''m not his friend. I''m his enemy, remember."

    But she soon grown solemn, "Is he alright?"

    "Is he?" The rest of the maidens were all asking at the same time.

    None of them know what Xiang Li''s hand gestures mean except for Bai Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng murmured, "Ji Yuan he is alright. But he is on fire."

    Yu Jingjing asked curiously, "He is on fire? What fire?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled all of a sudden, "Let me go and take a look then! After all, I am his enemy¡­"

    Without waiting for anyone''s inputs, she had quickly sped off and disappeared in the next instant.

    Yu Jingjing looked at the rest of the maidens, "Why didn''t you stop her? Didn''t you hear that she is Ji Yuan''s enemy?"

    Then she looked at Bai Qianfeng, "And why did you ask her to go after Ji Yuan? Are you really his consort?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly, "Xiang Li says his fire is as hot as the sun now. I am afraid that none of us will be able to help Ji Yuan except for Sisi."

    "As hot as the sun?!" Yu Jingjing asked curiously and even Feng Minyue was curious as well.

    But Feng Minyue suddenly had a flushed countenance when she had suddenly realized what this ''fire'' really was.

    Bai Qianfeng replied weakly, "Xiang Li is a spirit entity so she don''t speak normal like the rest of us. She is actually describing¡­"

    Yu Jingjing interrupted suddenly, "I want to help Ji Yuan. He has helped me a lot. Do not underestimate my physician skills. Please tell me about it."

    All the other maidens were all smiling weakly; how did Ji Yuan brainwash this innocent maiden...

    Feng Minyue said weakly, "He will be alright after a little while¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had sped into a valley where he made sure that he was hidden from sight from anyone.

    "Xiang Li! My pipe is bursting now." Ji Yuan shouted as his cold sweat dripped from him. "Surely you don''t need me to tell you what to do?"

    "Xiang Li?!"

    No response¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Where are you when I needed you the most? Don''t tell me that you''re napping now? Thises at never a worst timing than this¡­

    Fairy Anyang asked Xiang Li, "You''re not responding to him?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Nope!"

    "Why?"

    "Just watch! Sisi ising!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Fairy Anyang muttered, "I am supposed to be in slumber. Do you know how severe it is if I were to break the spiritws of the spirits? My soul sea may dissipate as a result. Even if it is not, my soul sea will be diminished¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled jovially, "Big Brother is only your second master but I''m your first master! Remember I have you first! So you have to listen to me instead!"

    Ji Yuan muttered bitterly, "Well, I guess that I''ve to do it alone then¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, do you need a help? What happens to you?" A lovely voice chuckled out.

    Ji Yuan was startled but he had recognized that it was Sisi''s voice and soon after she had appeared from above him by tiptoeing lightly next to him.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Sisi, what are you doing here? Do you know that right now I am about to be an unstoppable raging demon beast?"

    He had lost count how many times today that he was sure that he was going to be an unstopping raging demon beast. But each time, he was stopped.

    But now, NOTHING IN THE WORLD can EVER STOP him now!

    Count yourself unlucky Sisi to be at the WRONG ce at the WRONG time!

    Ji Yuan''s eyes had turned a raging red, "Sisi, you shouldn''t be here. Now you''re a goner¡­"

    Shui Xisi had shed in front of him in an instant as she raised her beautiful leg to give him a sudden and powerful kick in the middle with all her profound strength while giggling. "Now, do you feel much better now?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    His little precious just got kicked by a peaked great saintess who was not holding herself back¡­

    "It¡­is¡­really¡­very¡­painful¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "I''m just trying to help you to keep yourself in check or else I will be really anxious that you will do something funny to me."

    Ji Yuan was already lunging on her and he was kissing her passionately, "Sisi, I really need your help this time¡­I ampletely screwed¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled as she tried to free herself from him, "Tell me about it first. I see if I want to help you or not. But why are you so horny today? I haven''t even said I want to help you but you''re already taking advantage of me. This is taking advantage of me while asking me for a personal favor at the same time¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her as he started to rip off her clothing, startling Shui Xisi. "This is the favor that I need you to help you¡­I''ve taken five Great Masculine Revitalize Pills at the same time¡­"

    Shui Xisi was stunned. "What¡­you?! You have taken five at one go?"

    She wasughing all of a sudden, "Please¡­tell me about it¡­"

    Ji Yuan was already staring deliciously at her heaving naked bosoms, "I will tell you everythingter¡­after we have done with this¡­"

    He was nose-bleeding and was like a raging demon beast now.

    NOTHING can STOP him ANYMORE!

    He was gasping aloud, "Sisi, I''m going to ride you. You are the one that I need to vent out all my inner fire!"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "Do you even think that you are capable of doing so¡­"

    She was suddenly gasping when Ji Yuan had suddenly pulled down her skirt and ripped her panties apart.

    He had also pushed her against a tree while he was staring like a berserker from behind her.

    This time Shui Xisi was truly startled, "Don''t look¡­this is the broad daylight¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already covered her mouth by stuffing his fingers into it and he was caressing her butt and he was fitting himself inside.

    "Sisi, you''re very beautiful¡­but I won''t go easy on you and I will be very rough today¡­"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    But she did not have the intention to stop Ji Yuan and instead, she was moaning softly. "I don''t want you to go easy on me or else it won''t be fun¡­"

    Ji Yuan grabbed her naked body tightly as he entered into her, "Today, you will get into orgasm¡­no ultimate orgasm¡­"

    Shui Xisi began to bite his fingers hard, "Ji Yuan¡­please don''t stop until I ask you to¡­I really miss you¡­I didn''t get to hold you for nearly a month¡­"

    Ji Yuan gripped Shui Xisi hard as he gasped, "Same¡­here!"

    "Who do you love the most? Jiajia or me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why do all the maidens like to ask this question, especially in the middle of the act?

    He actually wanted to bang Jiajia more than anything in the world but he managed to say weakly, "Haha. It is my Sisi¡­"

    Yea, at this moment...I love my Sisi the most...

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi had bit him on his neck hard, "Liar! Do you not know what a child you are in front of my Sister Feifei. And do you know what is the price of toying with my feeling?"

    She grinned with great delight, "It is your little precious¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuanughed as he stuffed his little precious into her mouth, "Haha then go ahead¡­"

    ...

    ...

    Time passed...

    Xiang Li was giggling nonstop as Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi battled for hours and she was flushing shyly.

    Even Fairy Anyang was rendered speechless by the wild banging scene that wasid in front of her.

    Xiang Li asked her, "See! I told you it is interesting, am I right?"

    Fairy Anyang was forced to agree weakly, "It is really interesting¡­"

    All kinds of sex scenes were performed in front of them; Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were really leaving behind nothing to imagine as they feasted upon each other wildly.

    It was not just wild banging as Ji Yuan pped Shui Xisi until her butt and boobs had both turned red while Ji Yuan was whipped by Shui Xisi until he was covered with whip marks all over.

    Ji Yuan was really riding her rough and banging her hard while Shui Xisi was moaning out loud with great ecstasy.

    The entire valley was filled with their lovemaking noises as though they did not care if they may attract the attention of the nearby deste monsters.

    Luckily for them, even the deste monsters had thought something even more terrifying had just arrived when they had heard them hence they were afraid to approach the vicinity where Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were at.

    Fairy Anyang had never seen such a wild adulterous pair in her thousands of years, "This¡­this¡­is this our master?! You call him a gentleman?"

    Xiang Li nodded as she giggled, "Absolutely! He is loyal to the harem!"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Although she was also a spirit entity like Xiang Li but Xiang Li was on a totally different level than her, beyondprehension.

    She was furthered startled when she saw that Xiang Li was ying with a spirit memory stone. "What are you doing? Are you imprinting their images into the memory stone?"

    Xiang Li smiled with great delight, "I like to watch Big Brother again and again. When I''m free, I will show you my entire collection."

 Chapter 308 Return To The Great Forsaken Basin (1)

    At the Great Forsaken Basin;

    A veiled maiden in brilliant blue was riding a White Paragon Xuanfeng, a four winged phoenix with six reflective golden tails.

    This Creamino Paragon Xuefeng was a seventh rank profound divine beast and was rarely seen. Moreover it was said that it could not be tamed by the celestials.

    But this veiled maiden was not any ordinary celestial.

    She was a half-immortal because her mother consort was the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, once the heavenly ruler of the Immortal Realm.

    Therefore she had also inherited the celestial phoenix bloodline of her mother consort.

    This veiled maiden in blue was none other than Jiajia and there was a burning hatred in her golden eyes.

    Soon she was above the gigantic maelstrom that spanned a hundred miles beneath her.

    Her presence immediately attracted the attention of dozens of flying deste beasts in the vicinity and they were immediately making their way in her direction.

    Many of these deste beasts were sixth and seventh rank profound beasts!

    Deste beasts are always attracted to the profound animus of the cultivators and the divine beasts, especially when Jiajia did not even make any attempt to mask her profound animus which immediately pronounced herself as a peaked great saintess.

    Jiajia immediately stood up as she brandished her Hundred Flower Divine Sword, a celestial-step divine sword and a double golden halo could be seen radiating from it; Ji Yuan was not the only cultivator that could perfect divine harmony with the divine sword.

    Ji Yuan naturally had known about this because he had once fought with Jiajia; the duel was of course a pretended duel because Ji Yuan had wanted to know how far he was away from defeating his Jiajia so that he could strive to be on par with her and be worthy of her.

    Jiajia waited until the dozens of flying deste beasts were close enough before she lifted her divine sword high up as a hundred spirit images of flowers began to lit up; she is now disying the sanctorum power of her divine sword, the Hundred Flower Divine Strike.

    This Hundred Flower Divine Strike is actually an immortal profound art. Therefore it is unusable by most celestials because they won''t have the profound strength to wield it.

    There are many conditions to using this sanctorum power and the profound strength is the easiest of the conditions.

    The cultivator must also have a perfect divine harmony with the Hundred Flower Divine Sword.

    And the hardest requirement is that the cultivator must also have a high level of spiritual and soul force in their inner cultivation sea.

    But Jiajia had long formed mastered the True Sacred Saint Profound Art and her version is from her mother consort herself while the version that Ji Yuan was only the crudest form.

    She waited until more than half of the flying deste beasts were near her before her golden animus had suddenly began to begin to waver before her blue insignia on her forehead was glowing and all of a sudden her golden eyes had turned blue in coloring.

    She had just disyed her true profound animus through her spirit entity which was a wisp that was part of her Xiao Ruan, the blue phoenix.

    She was not the only one that had Xiao Ruan''s spirit wisp as her spirit entity; her Sister Sisi had it as well.

    But Sisi''s mastery of her spirit mastery was never as strong as her Sister Feifei so she rarely disys it.

    Jiajia inhaled slowly as she gathered all her profound energies into her blue profound animus again, this time her profound animus began to spread out like a pair of Blue Phoenix''s wings, enhancing her profound power even further.

    With a soft shout, she had unleashed the terrifying profound power of the Hundred Flower Divine Strike. "Profound technique: Hundred Flower Divine Strike."

    A wave of blue profound energies exploded from her Hundred Flower Divine Sword, instantly obliterating dozens of flying deste beasts in a blink of an eye.

    But she was not going to rest her attacks as she swung two more waves of blue profound energies, instantly obliterating dozens more of the flying deste beasts.

    The rest of the flying deste beasts were all freaked out by the sight and were all fleeing in all directions.

    But Jiajia did not pursue any of them.

    It was because her objective was not these deste beasts in the first ce.

    She raised her divine voice to proim movingly with the Great Divine Echo, "You''ve seen my prowess so why are you still waiting below? So why are you still waiting down below for? Are you waiting for me to kick down your secret base? I''m the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. You had kicked down my divine pce, killed my Xiao Ruan my epic divine beast and hundreds of my prot¨¦g¨¦s¡­"

    "For centuries, our two sides have been battling against each other without knowing each other''s true identities or where our secret bases are. I must admit that this time you''ve the upper hand over me but today I shall eradicate the Evil Cultivation Pce from the face of the Celestial Realm!"

    "You talk too big." A cultivator in green and white full te armor had suddenly ascended from within the maelstrom of thick deste mists.

    He began to scan his golden eyes upon Jiajia, "So you''re the presence that I''ve sensed not long ago."

    Jiajia hummed coldly, "Indeed."

    "There is another one with you at that time. So where is she now?"<sub> </sub>

    Jiajia replied, "She is not here today."

    She looked at him intensely, "You are the one that had in my Xiao Ruan and my prot¨¦g¨¦s. Return to me my Xiao Ruan''s artefact core or don''t me meter."

    "You dare to threaten me? You dare to threaten the Deste Dragon God Longdi?"

    Jiajia replied coldly, "I know that you are an immortal cultivator because you are able to traverse to the skies with your profound animus. Your profound strength is really strong but unfortunately, you are only ackey to the Evil Cultivation Master."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed, "The Evil Cultivation Master is nothing but a pawn to me. I am above him."

    Jiajia rolled her eyes; she was actually tricking him into revealing as much useful information as possible for her to form a moreplete conspiracy of her enemies.

    "You sound as if you''re above him. So you''re the main brain then?"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi seemed to have revealed an ugly look before he smiled coldly, "You seem to be collecting information, am I right?"

    Then heughed, "Why don''t you submit to us and swear your soul to us. You look like a useful pawn, unlike the others."

    Jiajia hummed coldly as she pointed her divine sword at him, "Don''t let me repeat myself. Return me Xiao Ruan''s artefact core or your life."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed, "Do you think that you will be able to take my life? We are in mid-air now. Even though I may not be able to kill you in one strike but I can certainly take away the life of your divine beast in a blink of an eye. Then you will take a hard plunge down to the maelstrom below. Do you think that you will be able to survive?"

    Jiajia hummed coldly as the four wings of her divine beast ceased to flutter and had suddenly turned to spirit form before merging into her.

    In the blink an eye, her divine beast had merged into her soul sea and only four spiritual white wings remained.

    Jiajia said slowly, "Hmph! You didn''t think that you''re the only one cultivator that can fly in the Celestial Realm."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi was startled, "Your divine beast is actually only a manifestation of your spirit entity and you can actually turn your spirit entity into a physical form¡­"

    Then he added after looking intently at her with his divine sense, "So you actually have two spirit entities. I must say that the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice is indeed worthy to be my opponent."

    This time Jiajia was startled, "You know?"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed, "Who else can possess a ninth rank epic Blue Phoenix as a spirit pet?"

    But he soon grown solemn, "However it is already a miscalction on your part to turn up today."

    When he had finished speaking, a saintly divine sword had shed like a bolt of lightning into his sword arm while his profound animus had exploded brilliantly, revealing himself as a ninth rank immortal cultivator!

    Jiajia was greatly startled as she stammered, "Impossible¡­your profound strength isn''t suppressed in the Celestial Realm?!"

    All of a sudden two other powerful cultivators had suddenly shed from below the maelstrom to levitate next to the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi smiled coldly, "Meet the real Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa Lu Yinxuan."

    Jiajia trembled lightly as she took a look at these two peaked seventh ranked cultivators that had just appeared, especially on the Evil Cultivation Master who was her arch-enemy for the longest time even though they had never met.

    The Evil Cultivation Master appeared to be very old and had wrinkled skin.

    Jiajia took a discern look at them with her Seventh Heaven Sense and her heart was immediately sunk; it was because the two of them were not any ordinary seventh rank great saints but was actually immortals that were restricted in the Celestial Realm. If they were desperate enough, they would still be able to unleash their higher cultivation profound strength to overwhelm her.

    She had naturally recognized the Sagess Alyssa; after all the Sagess Alyssa had taken part in the raid with Yin Xiong. While Yin Xiong was killed, the Sagess Alyssa had not only survived but also escaped despite the efforts of numerous saints that tried to contain her.

    This time round the Sagess Alyssa was openly disying her deste aura and so was the Evil Cultivation Master.

    The two of them are not any ordinary immortals either but are deste immortals!

    In the Great Forsaken Basin where the deste force is extremely rich, they can naturally levitate because they have a constant source of deste strength to drawn upon!

    She was suddenly fighting against three top deste immortal cultivators now.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi smiled coldly, "You didn''t think that we do not know that you''re nning to lure me elsewhere so that you can ambush me, am I right?"

    Jiajia continued to look with great defiance, "Surely you are more than enough for me to handle. You don''t need to fight me 3 is to 1."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi coldly mocked, "Save your smart words. Because we are only ensuring that you cannot escape from here. No matter how smart you are, you can never be as smart as the Great Demon God Hong Meng who can predict all your moves."

 Chapter 309 Return To The Great Forsaken Basin (2)

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi smiled as he looked lustfully at Jiajia, "I have many ways to make you submit to me. You''re merely a celestial. Crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant."

    "She is mine!" The Evil Cultivation Master hissed. "I''ve never thought that my arch-enemy will actually be the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice and moreover¡­"

    He was suddenly grinning with great delight, "Her primordial yin is still intact and perfect for me to regain my age. She will be the object of my dual cultivation. With her around, I no longer need to wait for Little Princess to reach the peak of her cultivation."

    He had spent hundreds of years to groom Little Princess for his vile purposes.

    There was a look of disgust in Jiajia''s eyes and she had a light shudder before she said coldly, "I''m afraid that my primordial yin is only for my future lord."

    The Sagess Alyssa was smiling wryly, "After today, it won''t matter anymore because the Evil Cultivation Master will be your future lord."

    "Or are you thinking of seeking aid from the Immortal Realm?" The Deste Dragon God smiled coldly, "I''m sure you know by now that is quite impossible."

    Jiajia had a slight shudder; it was because she hadmunicated with her mother consort in the Immortal Realm of suspected immortal activities in the Celestial Realm. However she was informed that a mysterious force had closed the way between the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm.

    The Great Goddess Celestial Alice said, "My daughter, I''m afraid that a mysterious force is now trying to restart the immortal war between the deste and the righteous immortals. This mysterious force may be true deste immortals themselves. They are the original denizens of the Deste Realm and right now the Immortal Realm is being invaded by the deste powers of the Deste Realm."

    "By right, it is impossible for the portals of the Deste Realm to appear in the Immortal Realm but it seems that they have tracked the location of the Immortal Realm via the Ancient Fortress when it had appeared in the Immortal Realm not long ago. This is only our best guess."

    Then she said solemnly, "Soon, even the telmunications between the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm will be cut off. You will be on your own. Please take care of yourself and protect your Sister Sisi."

    "Your Sister Sisi is too reckless and na?ve. Please set her on the path of cultivation and for her ascension. I am just afraid that she may be used by the less worthy in the Celestial Realm."

    "Mother Consort¡­" Jiajia had suddenly burst into tears. "Xiao Ruan is now dead¡­"

    The Great Goddess Celestial Alice nodded mncholy, "I''ve sense it too as well¡­"

    Jiajia now shed her divine sword and her eyes were bleary as she recalled her conversation with her mother consort.

    Soon she had disyed the Hundred Flower Divine Strike, sending a beam of concentrated profound energies toward the three top cultivators.

    "I shall avenge Xiao Ruan today!"

    The Sagess Alyssa was startled when Jiajia had mustered her profound energies without a hint of doing so; usually powerful profound arts are easily noticeable and could be easily evaded.

    They had analyzed Ji Yuan''s profound art weakness and had noted that his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light require three blink of an eye to execute while his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light would require five blink of an eye to execute once he had started to muster his profound energies.

    The Evil Cultivation Master raised his divine sword to block the profound attack as he was sent flying back harmlessly due to the impact while the Sagess Alyssa simply evaded out of the way as she did not want to take any risk.

    As for the Deste Dragon God Longdi, he simply blocked with his saintly divine sword before defraying the profound art of the Hundred Flower Divine Strike aside, seemingly effortless; he hadpletely remained still while in mid-air.

    He smirked coldly, "Save your puny efforts. Your profound art will never be able to work against a ninth realm immortal and moreover I am invincible with my True Dragon Demon Sword."

    But all of a sudden Jiajia had shed upon him with an instant after-image as she raised her divine sword to hack down upon the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    A gigantic cross took shape like a proton light from her divine sword as she mmed her divine sword against the divine sword of the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    "I''ve told you that your profound strength is inferior to mine." The Deste Dragon God Longdi hummed coldly as he disyed a gigantic hue of white profound energies on his divine sword.

    Not only did this gigantic hue of white profound energies broke Jiajia''s sword stance easily but there was a streak of purple lightning that had suddenly generated from the gigantic hue of white profound energies to strike mightily against her, sending her to fly off for miles.

    "This is my Heavenly Profound Lightning Assault." The Deste Dragon God Longdi smirked coldly as he began to fly toward Jiajia.

    Jiajia coughed out a bout of blood even as she used her divine sword to absorb the blunt of the lightning attack.

    She was knocked back once again and all of a sudden she had turned around to flee.

    The Sagess Alyssa shouted, "She is trying to run away now!"

    The Evil Cultivation Master was already speeding toward Jiajia, "Do you think that you can even outrun us with your puny profound strength?"

    He had immediately used unleashed several ming fireballs that sped toward Jiajia. "Do you think that you can get out of this ce to seek your reinforcements?"

    With a sudden cold smirk, he shouted. "Explode!"

    Immediately several of the ming fireballs exploded like a mini nova around Jiajia as she screamed aloud before she plunged down toward a lone mountain that stood up in the deste mists below.

    Immediately the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were all speeding to where Jiajia had crashed with a thunderous impact into the mountains below.

    As soon as Jiajia had crashed onto the ground, her pursuers had already surrounded her by all sides instantly.

    Jiajia weakly picked herself up, "It seems that I am unable to escape today¡­"

    With a soft shout, she had disyed the Hundred Flower Divine Strike again as she held it above her before sweeping it all around her toward her foes.

    The entire mountain side exploded furiously when it was struck by her profound art.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi hummed coldly as he deflected her profound harmlessly, "This is futile resistance. You will only be exhausting your profound strength quickly in this manner. Your courage is to be admired but your stupidity is not to be praised."

    The Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssabined their profound strength together to absorb the impact of the Hundred Flower Divine Strike and were also unharmed.

    Jiajia swung her divine sword again as her blue profound animus began to expand furiously in the shape of a blue phoenix.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi frowned before saying to the others, "She is burning her life essences. Be careful of her next attack."

    Actually even without the warning, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were already wary because they could sense a great deal of profound power had already been gathered by Jiajia and hence they did not dare to approach her.

    They were quite startled that a mere celestial could actually gather so much profound power that it exceeded even the eighth realm cultivation realm.

    Jiajia turned to stare at the Deste Dragon Longdi, "I know now how you''ve managed to retain your cultivation strength in the Celestial Realm."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi disyed an amusing look, "You can tell me but I won''t confirm it. Or are you just buying time for your profound energies to be gathered so as to use your next profound art? I can tell that your next profound art will be your most powerful profound art."

    "Indeed you''re not wrong." Jiajia did not deny it.

    However she also knew that her opponents would not attack her because she had also disyed a defensive stance with her life force energies unless they would want to risk themselves.

    Therefore her opponents could only observe what her profound art was so that they would be familiar with it and it was a lot easily to evade it when she was attacking rather than when she was defending.

    Jiajia said, "If I am not wrong, even though you may have the profound strength of a ninth realm cultivator here but your profound art is still being restricted here. Or else earlier, I won''t not be able to survive your profound attack. Therefore the seals of the Great God Pangu are still restricting you."

    She had taken the hits of her opponents'' earlier to gauge their profound strength.

    She pulled off her robe to reveal a blue reflective dress underneath.

    "The Heavenly Celestium Silk Dress?" The Deste Dragon God Longdi frowned. "This protective garment is indeed a little useful."

    The Heavenly Celestium Silk Dress is nearly indestructible and is a profound treasure sought by many in the Immortal Realm.

    The Sagess Alyssa smiled with delight, "I want her dress. You can have her naked body though¡­"

    All of a sudden there were several dark shadows that were suddenly descending rapidly from the top!

    Fiverge profound ships were freefalling rapidly onto the ground where Jiajia, the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Evil Cultivation Master and Sage Alyssa were at!

    And apanying the fall of the five profound ships were thousands of rocks!

    It seemed that the entire heavens were suddenly falling meteors!

    The Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were startled as they quickly took evasive actions; it was not a joke if they were hit by these huge rocks that were weighted several tons and all these rocks were even burning with profound fire!

    These profound ships weighted several thousand tons and were capable of ferrying thousands of cultivators!

    But there was no fear in Jiajia''s eyes as she suddenly made her profound attack against the Deste Dragon God Longdi as she unleashed her Starlight Celestial Cross with everything that she had got.

    A mighty starlight cross had suddenly shed onto the Deste Dragon God Longdi and the surrounding vicinity, exploding with a brilliant re.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed mightily as he gave an amused look. "I''ve told you that it is futile."

    He had raised his divine sword as he disyed his Heavenly Profound Lightning Assault once again; this power technique of his would instantly obliterate his opponent''s profound art immediately and even counter an offensive in return.

    But Jiajia shed toward the Deste Dragon God Longdi in a multitude of after-images while disying her finger stance while shouting. "Golden Nirvana Divine Skill!"

    Instantly the Heavenly Profound Lightning Assault was dissipated and shattered in a sh of brilliant light even as the Starlight Celestial Cross struck mightily upon the Deste God Longdi with a thunderous impact and exploding the vicinity into a mushroom cloud!

    "What the¡­" The Deste Dragon God Longdi waspletely taken by surprise as a mere celestial hadpletely neutralized his powerful profound art.<sub> </sub>

    The Golden Nirvana Divine Skill is actually a miracle profound art and is actually simr to the Divine Exaltation Art that is being used by Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing.

    In fact, both skills have the same origin for both are immortal profound art.

    It is just that Jiajia has a higher mastery over her Sister Sisi and she is able to evolve it to a miracle profound art.

    And the Golden Nirvana Divine Skill is able to neutralize profound energies instantly at a huge cost to the practitioner''s profound energies.

    This was a major drawback for this miracle profound art but Jiajia did not care at this moment because she was bent on regaining her Xiao Ruan''s artefact core.

    In another instant her finger stance had transformed into a second profound art and there were three golden rings around her; this was her three cores of her True Sacred Saint Profound Art and she was now disying it out to shatter her cultivation core.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi was further startled and he could feel that that his inner cultivation sea was now boiling furiously in response to this act.

    "Why are you shattering your cultivation core? This serves no purposes at all." The explosion from Jiajia''s cultivation core had knocked the Deste Dragon God Longdi several steps backward but he was otherwise unharmed.

    All of a sudden he coughed out a bout of blood as the artefact core of the blue phoenix that he had taken was suddenly pulled out of his inner cultivation sea.

    "This is enough." Jiajia said weakly as she shed away as she expertly evaded all the debris and rocks that were raining everywhere.

    She had managed to awaken Xiao Ruan''s artefact core because they had shared a connection with each other. Therefore she was able to forcefully snatch it from the Deste Dragon God Longdi even though the price was heavy; she had to sacrifice her golden cultivation core.

    Even though the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa had wanted to chase after Jiajia but she had already taken flight.

    It was as though there was an invisible force that seemed to be guiding Jiajia where the debris would be falling and she did not even have to divert her attention to deal with it.

    When Jiajia had made her escape, the Evil Cultivation Master was cursing loudly. "It is obvious that she has setup an ambush point here!"

    The Sagess Alyssa was stunned, "Where did these profound ships and rockse from?"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi looked in the heavens but instead of an angry look, he wasughing jovially. "This Hundred Flower Divine Master is really interesting. She actually has the tenacity to fight with me. I will take her to be my consort the next time."

    The Evil Cultivation Master was startled as he said weakly, "She is supposed to be mine¡­"

    "Not anymore now." The Deste Dragon God interrupted coldly.

    The Evil Cultivation Master: ¡­

    Days ago;

    Jiajia was in a meeting with Saintess Yuluo, Xue Qianxue, Ling Tianshui, Zhao Songjin, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan''Er, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Jiajia had drawn out a battle n; she was to draw out the Deste Dragon God Longdi and then she would setup an ambush point against him so that she could have an opportunity to get back Xiao Ruan''s artefact core.

    She said solemnly, "This is actually not a very good n. Songjin and I have seen that person. He is very formidable and I really have no confidence that I may be able to defeat him."

    "Therefore I have decided to use my four elders of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to help me. They are all great saints and they are all willing to sacrifice themselves for my sake. It is also their way of avenging the humiliation of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    "Pardon me for saying this." Shangguan Yan said quietly. "Even if you want to do so, how can you be sure that this enemy will follow you to the ambush point? What if there are more of them? What if you cannot outrun them?"

    Jiajia: ¡­

    Indeed there was a huge chance that she could not outfly them.

    Xue Qianxue folded her arms, "What is this? You''ve formed this secret group only to tell us that we shouldn''t be involved?"

    Jiajia said solemnly, "Ji Yuan will be so sad if anything were to happen to anyone of you."

    "Then count me in." Zhao Songjin said firmly. "After all, I am only friend with benefit with Ji Yuan. He won''t be sad at all if I die. At least I can do something good for once."

    Ling Tianshui smiled weakly as she looked at the battle ns. "Is this even a n? I don''t think it will even work without any support."

    All the other maidens were all nodding weakly, even Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were shaking their heads.

    But Hua Wuwu said, "I am willing to apany my mistress to the death."

    Hua Baiyue was also nodding without any hesitation at all.

    Jiajia sighed, "I know that this is a not a brilliant n but the secret base of the Evil Cultivation Pce is in the middle of the maelstrom that spanned several hundreds of miles. There is no way that we can even approach the vicinity without even being detected by them.

    "May Yan''Er say something again?" Shangguan Yan said intimately. After all, she was the lowest realm cultivator in the group.

    Jiajia and all the other maidens nodded.

    Shangguan Yan pointed at the map, "Even though the deste mists span hundreds of miles in the Great Forsaken Basin but there are plenty of isted mountain peaks in the vicinity. We can choose to setup an ambush point there rather than further away. This will improve your odds of reaching the ambush point as well."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly, "But Sister Yan''Er, even before we are there, they will have known that we are there. How can this be called an ambush point then?"

    All the other maidens were nodding.

    "Although the ambush point is there but it does not need to be down there. It can be up there." Shangguan Yan smiled.

    Xue Qianxue gasped, "You mean if we move very high up then we can move undetectable through the Great Forsaken Basin?"

    Saintess Yuluo said, "Indeed this will move us out of their divine sense but it will also mean that we are too far away from Jiajia to render her any assistance."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled as she looked at the smiling Jiajia, "I think you''re also thinking of the same as me am I right? We can always drop our profound ships on them from above."

    Jiajia nodded before she smiled at Shangguan Yan, "Yan''Er, thanks to you. I am now able to rework my n. My brain isn''t working all too well."

    Shangguan Yan returned a smile, "I am just contributing to the best of my ability. I can''t really be of any real help."

    "No, this is a big help." Jiajia insisted with a smile.

    Then she looked at Saintess Yuluo, "I think your help to increase the odds of this n."

    She exined quickly, "I am going to load the profound ships to heavy boulders. However I can''t be sure that I can reach everyone but I know your divine sense is the sharpest of us here because you''re a Sword Saintess. I will give a signal by lighting my profound art to the heavens and after picking it up, I hope that you can give the signal to drop the profound ships."

    Saintess Yuluo nodded with a smile, "I can do something further. I can imprint these boulders with my sword spirit mark. All you to do are to get familiar with my mark so that you won''t be hit by these big boulders."

    "Thank you." Jiajia smiled.

    "But we also need to calcte the positions of the profound ships and the falling debris. Like where it is supposed to drop and at what timing? I have only got a few blinks of an eye and I want to be fully focused on my actions."

    Xue Qianxue winked at Zhao Songjin, "I seem to remember that we are both very good with mathematics and calctions while we are at the Celestial Orthodox Sect, am I right?"

    Zhao Songjinughed softly, "So let''s have a friendlypetition to calcte it."

    "And then we will prove the calctions by dropping a loaded profound ship as a test experiment when we''re done with our calctions." Xue Qianxue giggled.

    Ling Tianshui rolled her eyes as she looked at the newly revised battle n, "Five profound ships alone will cost 100 million high grade spirit stones and dozens of heavenly relics. Moreover if you want to fly to these heights, you have to burn a special type of rare spirit stones as well. This type of spirit stones are going to cost more than 100mil high grade spirit stones as profound ships are not meant to fly at that height. Also, we also need our own profound ships to escape immediately from the vicinity."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded weakly, "This n will cost 500 million high grade spirit stones at the very least.

    Jiajia nodded slowly, "This is¡­really¡­going to be expensive."

    Zhao Songjin turned to Xue Qianxue with a smile, "You''re now the Sacred Maiden now. Do you think the Celestial Orthodox Sect can financially help with this n?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Why not?"

    Saintess Yuluo smiled, "My Profound Heaven Sword Manor as well."

    Ling Tianshuiughed, "I can authorize the treasury of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect as well."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said, "The treasury of the Emperor Hall Sect is also opened for you. It is yours anyway."

    Jiajia inhaled softly and there was a look of deep appreciation, "Thank you...everyone!"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "You know Jiajia. If you have us as your advisers to nail Ji Yuan in the past, surely he won''t be able to slip away."

 Chapter 310 The Ultimate Trick

    Shui Xisi was wrapped naked in Ji Yuan equally naked embrace as she asked softly, "Ji Yuan, do you love me?"

    "Of course I do." Ji Yuanughed. "Did I manage to tame you?"

    Shui Xisi punched him hard, "Never!"

    "Then why are you submissive in my embrace now?" Ji Yuan asked with a chuckle.

    Shui Xisi rested her head warmly on his chest, "I feel a little bad now."

    "Why so?"

    Shui Xisi looked up and asked gently, "My core prot¨¦g¨¦ Shui Qingqing likes you as well. How am I going to break to her that we are together?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "But I''ve no feeling for her."

    Shui Xisi hummed, "How about Wan''Er, Chen Hanhan, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue then? Is my Qingqing less inferior to any one of them?"

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan immediately protested weakly.

    He quickly sighed, "She is a very good maiden and she can always find a better man. As for me¡­"

    "As for you, you''re nothing but a bad and poor rascal." Shui Xisi interrupted him.

    Ji Yuanughed. "Precisely. Only a bad rascal like me is a good fit for a rascal maiden like you. Haha."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "I am a rascal?"

    Ji Yuan pointed to his injuries. "Aren''t you?"

    Shui Xisi giggled sheepishly, "Then why didn''t you protest? I''ve thought that you like it."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "I don''t but I just want to bang you."

    "Crude!" Shui Xisi pinched his nose immediately.

    Ji Yuan yelled aloud, "Ouch! Stop that¡­"

    He quickly tried to distract her by asking, "So what is your reward for the S Rank Trial?"

    Shui Xisi smiled immediately, "You won''t believe it. I got a green cockatoo as a spirit pet."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When Shui Xisi saw Ji Yuan''s expressions, sheughed. "I''m only joking with you."

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "Do you think I am so easily offended? Haha. Impossible!"

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes; she had seen Ji Yuan''s silly expressions earlier today and almost burst outughing when he fought with the green cockatiel.

    Sheughed softly, "Ji Yuan, I want you to make love with me every day, can you do that for me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This was the woman ultimate question. Deny it and no more bang, bang.

    "Of course I will love to." Ji Yuan answered with great conviction. "I''m only afraid that you will not want to. Haha."

    This was the man ultimate answer as well.

    But Ji Yuan was shaking his head; these maidens are all testing the pureness of his soul all the time. Well, if I fail to ascend in the future, at least I will die a happy man¡­

    Shui Xisi smiled warmly, "Come, let''s us go back now."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed, "Alright¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi had thrown a blob of white sticky stuff on his face that she had picked from below her, "This is all from yours. Heh!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had returned to his party, all the maidens had a solemn expression on their faces.

    Ji Yuanughed. "What is wrong?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled coldly, "What took you so long to be back? Nearly a day had since passed."

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "I''ve met with some deste monsters along the way. It seems that these deste monsters on the fifth level seem to be more cunning than anything that I''ve ever seen. Therefore it had taken us some time to clear them."

    Little Princess returned a wry smile, "You''ve also changed to a new clothing now and so has Sisi."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I was covered with the blood of the deste monsters and it stink. That is why I have a change of clothing."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled gently, "Is the valley fun?"

    "Fun?" Ji Yuan did not understand. Indeed he had entered the valley.

    He began to frown, "What is so fun about the valley? We are lost in there for hours."

    All of a sudden there were thunderous shrieks from the valley nearby; it was caused by some battling deste monsters inside the valley and it was echoed loudly.

    Yu Jingjing said slowly, "We''ve heard two horny voices¡­"

    "It seems that we can hear everything that happened in that valley from here and the sound seems to be greatly magnified." Feng Minyue said as she exined to Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had turned ashen and they were greatly flustered; they were totally screwed now.

    Ji Yuan began to look panicky at Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing, "Wait, wait! I can exin. This is all a misunderstanding."

    "Did a subus tie you to a tree and was whipping you so that is why?" Ling Feiyue offered a suggestion.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he smiled weakly to everyone, "It is actually something that is worse than that."

    Little Princess smiled coldly, "Go on and tell us, convince us."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before he pretended to faint on the ground all of a sudden.

    "My lord¡­"

    "Ji Yuan?!"

    "What happens to him?"

    "Ji Yuan, are you alright?"

    Immediately Ji Yuan was surrounded by all the maidens who showered him with lots of love and concern.

    Ji Yuan had used his ultimate weapon and it works!

 Chapter 311 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (1)

    Ji Yuan had pretended to faint in order to evade all the exining by fainting all of a sudden.

    Now he and his party were continuing their way again in search of a new trial.

    He was slightly startled that no one questioned him after he had ''waked'' up again.

    Ling Feiyue was the first one to pull him aside to whisper, "Next time, I want to try as well."

    Little Princess was the second one to pull him aside to whisper, "Do you remember the rough games that we have yed in the past?"

    Bai Qianfeng was the third to pull him aside to whisper, "My lord, if you want to do something exciting, I don''t mind at all."

    Ji Yuan was stunned by their secret whispers.

    They don''t me me? And they want it rough too?!

    Shui Xisi did not talk to him for several days as she was too awkward to talk to him for the time being.

    Ji Yuan could only mutter weakly, "Well, it is you that didn''t want to talk to me for the time being so that is why I can''t make love to you every day. So don''t me me for not keeping my promise to you."

    What a perfect excuse not to taint his pure soul!

    As for Feng Minyue, she did not talk to Ji Yuan either and had merely smiled gently toward him as though he was just any ordinary friend.

    Ji Yuan sighed, "There goes my first andst kiss on her lips. She must have been disillusioned with me for my wanton ways. Why did I have to take all five masculine profound pills at the same time¡­"

    Yu Jingjing however had taken Ji Yuan aside and she had said to him, "I know that the Water Melody Pce, along with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and the Evil Cultivation Pce are three of the most powerful heretic celestial sects in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    "And I''ve heard that this Maiden Shui is the matriarch of the Water Melody Pce. Even though the Water Melody Pce isn''t as well known as the Hundred Flower Divine Pce or the Evil Cultivation Pce but it is powerful nevertheless. I can totally understand why you are under the heretic influence of the Water Melody Pce."

    "I can help you Ji Yuan. Please tell me if you need my help to fight her together. I am willing to fight for your freedom."

    Ji Yuan was most afraid of the na?ve maidens like Shui Qingqing and Yu Jingjing.

    So he decided to be honest with her, "Actually Sisi and I are lovers. We are not real enemies."

    Yu Jingjing was stunned with disbelief, "You''re really not enemies?"

    Ji Yuan exined, "Do you trust Maiden Feng? She and Sisi are the best of friends in our party. If Sisi really wants to hurt me, I may not be her match."

    Yu Jingjing was startled, "She is stronger than you?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Can''t you see that she is only here to y?"

    Indeed Shui Xisi seemed to have the lightest mood in the party, even lighter than Bai Qianfeng. She did not seem to have any fear of the forting dangers and always have a jovial mood.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I actually feel safer when Sisi is around me. Haha. It is as though nothing bad will happen if she is around."

    -

    -

    -

    A few dayster, they had traveled through the deste valley below and hade to a misty mountainous region.

    Ji Yuan noted that the way was now more treacherous and more difficult aspared to the lower levels.

    However the spiritual force here was actually much richer than the lower level and the saint cultivators were no longer restricted in their profound strength recovery.

    The lower levels had made it much harder for the high realm cultivators to recover their profound strength in order to narrow down the disparity between the lower and higher realm cultivators.

    This time they had found the next trial quite easily because there was a more noticeable pir of visible spirit force from afar.

    Therefore they had quickly climbed up to the misty mountains until they had arrived at arge white tform.

    At the end of the tform was a portal but there was no ck stele.

    Instead three spirit old men were sitting next to the portal; one with ck hair, one with white hair and the other had green hair.<sub> </sub>

    As Ji Yuan and his party had approached them, the three spirit old men said at the same time. "Yet another group hase. This group seems worse than thest group."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Immediately he sped ahead and asked, "Are you the trial spirits? So what is the trial? I''ll surely pass with flying colors."

    Ling Feiyue was also saying with great indignant, "We are worse than the previous group? Don''t use your colored eyes to look down upon us. We are the top cultivators from our celestial fraternity!"

    Even Bai Qianfeng was humming, "What is so difficult about a fifth level trial?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "You can make it even harder for us and we won''t even bat an eyelid."

    All of sudden she noticed that Ji Yuan was frowning at her and so were the other maidens; they were just arguing back with hot air and were not serious.

    So she quickly smiled back, "I was just joking."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he said to the three spirit old men, "What is this trial all about? Why is there no ck stele?"

    The three spirit old men all answered at the same time, "You can ask us about the trial information."

    The grey head old man said, "This trial is an intellectual trial and 99.9% of the cultivators did not make it through this trial."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I happen to be the intellectual type. So are there any cultivators that are ahead of us that have alreadypleted this trial?"

    The ck head old man shook his head, "None whatever so."

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, "Then I will be the first to clear it. So what is this trial all about?"

    The green head old man replied, "You will only know once you''re inside the trial."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What if I were to regret after entering the portal? What if this trial is an impossible trial and I were to die inside?" Ji Yuan smiled bitterly.

    The white head old man smiled coldly, "This is an intellectual trial so none of you will ever die inside. However, you''ve only one chance to ovee this trial."

    Ji Yuan and the maidens in his party were all muttering, "Only a single chance¡­"

    Ling Feiyue refused to be back down so she smiled, "Since this is an intellectual trial and we are all the smartest maidens in our celestial fraternity, so why don''t we attempt this trial?"

    "Spirit entities won''t lie. So even if we fail this trial, we won''t die." Little Princess pointed it out.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Since we are already here, we may as well take this trial. What do the rest of you think?"

    The rest of you actually referred to Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "I am best known for my intellectual actually. I am taking this trial!"

    When she had said that, everyone rolled their eyes awkwardly when they remembered the number of times she tried very hard to be Ji Yuan''s enemy but was actually flirting with him. In hertest screw up, she did not even realize that the valley that she was in could actually carry her moaning sounds to all the nearby vicinity.

    Yu Jingjing said coolly, "That is weird. I am also a smart maiden."

    Ji Yuan almost coughed out when he had heard her but he managed to keep his mouth shut.

    Feng Minyue said gently, "The intellectual trial may be as tough as the standard trials. Also the rate of failure seems to be a little too high here¡­"

    "We are the 0.1%." Ji Yuan interrupted with a loud chuckle.

    He began to walk proudly toward the portal, "I happen to be a cultivator with brains. Haha¡­"

    All the other maidens were all looking awkwardly at one another, not knowing what to say.

    But all except for one and Yu Jingjing was the only one who was nodding while muttering to herself. "Hero Ji Yuan is the smartest cultivator that I''ve ever known."

 Chapter 312 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (2)

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to march into the portal, Yu Jingjing panicky said to him from behind. "Hero Ji Yuan, we may not see each other after this trial so I just want¡­may the great beyond blesses you and the Great God Pangu be with you¡­and may we meet again."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he answered, "We will surely meet again¡­haha¡­"

    <o>,m Yu Jingjing nodded mncholy, "Hopefully¡­"</o>

    All the other maidens were smiling weakly; it was because Ji Yuan will need to do some exining afterward. Hopefully he would not tell her that they were now in a special trial level so that was why they would be able to meet again. This excuse was getting too stale already.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuanughed, "If we can meet again then it mean that our destinies have not ended fully or maybe we are destined to be best friends. Haha."

    All the other maidens: ¡­

    Howe Ji Yuan had suddenly be so smart and romantic all of a sudden¡­

    Yu Jingjing was greatly touched as she nodded, "I hope so¡­"

    Ling Feiyue quickly grabbed Ji Yuan''s arm as she secretly shot him a gold gaze, "In the meantime this romantic cultivator seems to have forgotten that he is supposed to enter the portal for his trial."

    Ji Yuan looked at Ling Feiyue lovingly despite her cold gaze, instantly melting her heart as she could not resist smiling in secret and shaking her head at the same time; he knew that Ling Feiyue was only trying to rescue him from his awkwardness and was not jealous.

    Ling Feiyue had strongly believed in their destinies together and did not mind that Ji Yuan was flirting around. After all, she was only too d to know that he was still alive after a hundred years, easing her guilt toward him and after their first trial together, she hadpletely fallen in love with him so much that she was willing to turn down the young masters from the unorthodox celestial ns at the risk of her own Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    By now Yu Jingjing was aware that Ji Yuan had four main consorts; Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. The other maidens had shared with her that much.

    And she also knew that Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess were extremely close to him.

    They had also told her that Ji Yuan also liked Jiajia and Saintess Yuluo the most.

    But she had answered them, "Hero Ji Yuan is a top cultivator and he is also kind. He is every maiden''s dream."

    She conveniently neglected to mention that Ji Yuan was also one of the most handsome men that she had ever known or else she would look very superficial in their eyes.

    Often, a woman will not mention that they like a man because he is handsome unless they have no rtionship with him or else they will bebeled superficial.

    At the same time, a woman will not mention that they like a man because he is rich unless they have no rtionship with him or else they will bebeled a gold-digger.

    Yu Jingjing seriously wants to be in a serious rtionship with Ji Yuan and hence, she did not mention that Ji Yuan has a good look.

    Ji Yuan smiled to turn at everyone, "Follow me and don''t lose track of me. I will show you how the genius of the geniuses of the heavens ovee this trial for everyone. Haha."

    Feng Minyue warned him cautiously, "Don''t be too overconfident and please exercise cautious. Are you even sure that you''re a genius cultivator in the first ce? Who told you so?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "My old master and that is why he had handed over the Orthodox Sword Sect''s leadership to me."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    With a loud chuckle, Ji Yuan had entered into the shimmering portal and had exited into a bright cave chamber.

    In front of him were the same three spirit old men.

    He frowned, "You three again?"

    Then he suddenly realized that he was alone; he had remembered entering the portal with Ling Feiyue at the same time and he was followed tightly by the rest.

    The spirit green hair old man asked, "Did we say that this is a group trial?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "You didn''t mention that it is a solo trial either."

    "All trials are solo by nature." The spirit ck hair old man said. "Or are you riding on your party sess all the way to this point?"

    I am riding most of them actually¡­

    Ji Yuan decided to keep this thought to himself.

    "So what is this intellectual trial about?"

    The spirit white hair old man said, "This trial tests your umted knowledge of cultivation."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''m screwed¡­<sub> </sub>

    His knowledge of cultivation was next to nil.

    Next to nil is 0.1%

    Instead of the 0.1% that can ovee this trial, he now belongs to the 99.9% that would not ovee the trial.

    He immediately protested, "This is not fair at all! This trial is rigged for the 0.1% of the rich celestial ns that have nothing better to do except for reading about cultivation!"

    Xiang Li was indignant as she shook her fists in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "My Big Brother is right!"

    Fairy Anyang smiled weakly, "He has only himself to me for hisck of knowledge."

    She hadmunicated to Xiang Li by telepathy through the immortal sword as she could not enter Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    The old man with the green hair pointed at the green portal nearby, "If you think it is too difficult, you may exit the trial immediately."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he rubbed his chin to ponder.

    All of a sudden he wasughing secretly as he said to Xiang Li in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, you are a trial spirit in the past. So your knowledge of cultivation must be extensive. You must help me or else I will surely fail this trial."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I will help you for sure."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am so d that you are going to be so useful for once. You are my best cheat for this trial."

    "But Big Brother, I have a question." Xiang Li giggled. "What actually is cultivation and what is cultivation knowledge? I''ve never cultivate before."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had suddenly remembered that Xiang Li did not even recognize a ve cor from a spirit cor when he had first found the nine-tail spirit fox who was actually Bai Qianfeng in disguise.

    I am screwed now¡­

    But he said bravely, "Come on and tell me the details of the trial. I will surely ovee it for sure."

    The ck hair old man answered, "You are to impress us with writing a cultivation story based on your cumted experiences in the Celestial Realm. The story can be a fiction as long as you can impress us with a perfect cultivation hero."

    Xiang Li whispered to Ji Yuan, "This sounds hard¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had burst out with greatughter all of a sudden, "This is all too easy! For a moment, I''ve thought that this intellect trial will be a difficult one. Haha."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "It is easy?"

    "Of course Xiang Li! I''ve extensive knowledge of all the cultivation stories in the Celestial Realm haha and I patronized the storytellers from all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity. As a matter of fact, I am able to tell a perfect cultivation hero story!" Ji Yuan proimed with great assurances.

    He began to ask, "So where do I start?"

    The white hair old man pointed to a table, "You may go over there to write the story. You will be given a full day toplete your perfect cultivation hero story."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he walked to the table and ready to use his talents for writing.

    "Big Brother, is there really a perfect cultivation hero?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course there is and that is me. I am going to write about myself. Hahaha."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "Is this really our master?" Fairy Anyang muttered with great disbelief.

 Chapter 313 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (3)

    Ji Yuan wasughing, "Most impressive cultivation hero? Haha. This is too easy for me. I''ve read all the cultivation stories in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and I''m familiar with all the plots!"

    "But first we do need a title first, am I right? How about ''The Great Cultivation Hero''?"

    "No, that is too amateur. How about ''The Greatest Cultivation Hero Ever'' instead? Haha, it sounds better."

    Xiang Li was listening with great anticipation as she nodded, "Yes my Big Brother is the Greatest Cultivation Hero Ever."

    "That is for sure, Xiang Li. Haha. There is no doubt about it." Ji Yuan proimed proudly.

    "Absolutely!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Fairy Anyang whispered secretly to Xiang Li, "Is our master sure that he is able to write something so impressive that he is the greatest cultivation hero ever? The story also has to be the most impressive ever as well."

    Xiang Li put her hands on her bosoms as she whispered secretly to her, "In my heart Big Brother is the greatest cultivation hero ever. That is enough already."

    She began to giggle, "Maybe I will write a story also for this trial."

    Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes, "Keep it to yourself and don''t share with me. Or else I afraid that I may puke."

    Xiang Li giggled, "One day, you will be impressed by our master."

    "Never!" Fairy Anyang hummed coldly. "Did you see the way he is looking lecherously at me when we''ve only met for the very first time? And he had even lost control."

    "That is because you are too beautiful!" Xiang Li giggled with great delight.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was muttering to himself while he started to put his thoughts into writing. "Xiang Li, this will be the greatest cultivation hero that your Big Brother is going to create. Be prepared to be blown awaypletely! Haha."

    Xiang Li warned him, "Be careful of giarism."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not copying word for word. You need to be better educated. You need to improve upon yourck of knowledge."

    He quickly ignored Xiang Li and started writing his epic story; he had always wanted to write an epic cultivation story.

    <Ji Yuan a cultivator is born in Glory City, the only city that was well-preserved from the Age of Darkness.>

    <He is the solo survivor of a fierce attack by an evil organization and even his girlfriend Jiajia had died in his arms. He was not toment for too long before he too, was killed by the Evil Emperor and his fiend sage cultivators.>

    Xiang Li was stunned. "Big Brother, you''ve game over in only two paragraphs?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course not!"

    <Ji Yuan thought that he was dead until he found out that he was brought back through time when he was only 13 year old!>

    Ji Yuan exined with a grin, "Everyone loves transmigration stories! I am now brought back to life!"

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes¡­

    <This of course could not happen without the demonic book that he have found in his travel across the Divine Continent, among many mysterious things that he had also found. Even though Ji Yuan is a low talent cultivator but he is very good in finding mysterious treasures with his expert observations.>

    <This time he is determined to stop the evil organization, save his city and his girlfriend Jiajia; he is determined to stop the events that ur in 2 years from happening.>

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Big Brother, why are you only a 13 year kid? Aren''t you just a 15 year old brat 2 yearster?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "All the kids love this type of cultivation story and imagine themselves as a genius cultivator when they are just a kid. Do you think anyone will read my story if we start at an old age and at a high cultivation realm?"

    Xiang Li muttered, "But Big Brother, you''re trying to impress the three old men. They''re not kids."

    "Correction!" Ji Yuan rebuked her gently. "They''re only the trial spirits. Even though they look old but they are actually young at heart."

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "They are actually very old spirits¡­"

    Ji Yuan was not offended and instead he wasughing jovially, "Do you know why 99.9% of the cultivators have failed this trial in the first ce?"

    Xiang Li shook her head, "No?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "That is because they''ve forgotten that this is actually the intellect trial! If you base on the appearances of these old men then you are on the wrong track. Therefore in order to pass this trial, we need to write the most popr and most generic cultivation story ever in order to impress them with our cultivation knowledge. Do you remember that they are actually asking to test our cultivation knowledge at the same time too?"

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes, "Um¡­yes?"

    "Therefore we are going to write the most epic ever cultivation hero in order to impress them. The cultivation hero will save his city and his girlfriend; that is why he is a ''Hero''." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Um¡­ok¡­" Xiang Li muttered. "But do you think that going back to time is unrealistic?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Remember one of the trial conditions mention that we can write a fictional story. The second most important condition is to impress. It doesn''t matter if the cultivation isn''t real."

    Xiang Li returned a weak smile while Ji Yuan proimed loudly, "Just leave the epic writing to me!"

    Ji Yuan continued to say, "Know why 99.9% of the cultivators have failed this trial? Because theyck the intellect to pass this intellect trial!"

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "I think you''ve better start writing your own version of the cultivation hero to help him. Your master is going to look like an idiot in this trial and he will probably fail his trial."

    Xiang Li asked, "Why? Big Brother will never fail any of his trials!"

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "That is because he has already failed to impress the two of us with his cultivation hero already."

    Xiang Li protested weakly, "Big Brother will never be wrong¡­"

    Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes, "Do you have to deceive yourself like this? Are you in love with him?"

    Xiang Li put her palms on her face as she giggled shyly, "How do you know? Hehehe."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    <Now Ji Yuan found himself in a cultivation ss after he had transmigrated. He had instantly recognized familiar faces immediately and saw Yuluo, Little Princess, Qianxue, Feiyue, Chengxi, Yan''Er and of course Jiajia, whom he had thought had died in his arms.>

    <There is of course Guo Taiming in the ss as well who is always bullying Ji Yuan.>

    <Not to mention that Mo Bei is the teacher in charge of the cultivation ss now and when Ji Yuan had suddenly transmigrated and had given out a startled voice, Mo Bei began to angrily confronted Ji Yuan. "Adept Ji Yuan, do you have something to say about my ss or are you not paying any attention?"

    <Ji Yuan suddenly noted that Mo Bei is teaching the ss on how to draw mystic talisman so he begins to say, "This Thunder Talisman has several ws and is imperfect.">

    <Mo Bei immediately frowned, "What nonsense are you saying?! This Thunder Talisman has been perfected by countless generations of cultivators until it is no longer able to perfect.">

    <Because Ji Yuan has the Demonic Book of Darkness, he has foreknowledge of an even perfect talisman.">

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "How is it possible for countless generations of cultivators to begging behind an ancient book? Are they all idiots? In my trial, I''ve only the most basic profound cultivation methods¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted weakly, "Xiang Li, this is not the real world. In this cultivation world, my Demonic Book of Darkness is perfect."

    "Um¡­alright." Xiang Li nodded. "But you''re a cultivation hero, am I right? Why use such an evil name for your cheat?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Because it sounds badass and cool."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "Alright then¡­"

    "How did you find this book, you didn''t exin." Xiang Li asked again.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I found it during one of my travels. I did mention it."

    Xiang Li giggled. "I''ve forgotten. But you mention that you are a low talent cultivator so how did a low talent cultivator manage toprehend something so profound as the Demonic Book of Darkness? Is it because anyone can also easily learn it?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That is not the point. Stop interrupting. When I found the Demonic Book of Darkness, its knowledge just open to me because I am the destined cultivation hero, OK?"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes with a weak smile; her Big Brother''s points are getting weaker and weaker now. She was only trying to help him to improve upon his writing.

    <Ji Yuan immediately draws a new Thunder Talisman on the spot and smiled, "Try it.">

    <Immediately Mo Bei is stunned because he can find no ws in the new Thunder Talisman!>

    <Unknown to Ji Yuan and the cultivation ss, the Senior Principal Mo Ming and two of the masters are secretly observing the cultivation ss; they are all equally surprised that Ji Yuan is able to draw such a perfect Thunder Talisman!>

    <The Thunder Talisman is one of the most difficult talisman to even begin with and Senior Principal Mo Ming ispletely impressed by Ji Yuan''s skill!>

    <He says, "This kid must be a true genius!">

    <Immediately, everyone is awed by Ji Yuan!>

    <From that day onward, Ji Yuan is suddenly known as the genius of the cultivation ss!>

    <All the little maidens in the ss will be secretly in love with him from that point on but Ji Yuan has no time for them; in his mind, he has to cultivate every day to save the city from its impending doom.><sub> </sub>

    <Whether he is eat, sleep or awake; he is always cultivating at an insane speed and breakthrough every few days.>

    "You can breakthrough so easily? Sounds fake." Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan frowned. "This is a different cultivation world. I''m going to have level 1 to level 10 attach to each realm level. That is why I can breakthrough every now and then."

    "Erm, how many realm levels are there?" Xiang Li asked.

    Ji Yuan frowned again, "No one will ask that question at the beginning of the story. Maybe there are 10, maybe there are 20. I add as I think about it. I don''t think you ever read a cultivation story in your life."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "But if you don''t know theplete realm level at the very start, how do you know how strong your opponents are?"

    JI Yuan smiled and exined, "Because the MC of this story will never fight someone who is impossible to beat. Every realm level will be there to awe the readers to think that this is a new awesome realm level that has great disparity to beat from a lower realm level."

    Xiang Li asked, "Is it plot armor?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "The MC''s golden halo."

    Xiang Li said weakly, "What is the difference?"

    "Plot armor means someone is always there to save the MC. The MC''s golden halo means that the MC will have amazing luck." Ji Yuanughed.

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes; she still doesn''t see a difference.

    "This MC in this story is going to be super smart, always win, super perfect and have no weakness." Ji Yuan exined coolly to Xiang Li.

    "You mean there are no smart viins in the story and they are there to be face-pped by the MC?" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "All the viins are super smart! But the MC is the only genius in the story."

    "Then how did this MC dies in the future if he is so smart and has the Demonic Book of Darkness?" Xiang Li asked again.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Didn''t I say that he is a low talent cultivator from the beginning?"

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang covered her face with her hands as she whispered secretly to Xiang Li, "Our master is just using whatever arguments that can suit him. I got a feeling that he will never get toplete this story because the entire story is broken and he is just writing along when he is there."

    Ji Yuan exined as he shook his head while exining to Xiang Li who appeared to be such a cultivation noob in his eyes, "I''ve only got the Demonic Book of Darkness at the veryst minute so there is no time to grow very powerful. But now I''ve the perfect opportunity to return to the past and be a perfect cultivation hero."

    "This time travel skill looks so easily to be mastered." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan growled, "I''ve told you that the profound skills of the Demonic Book of Darkness revealed everything to me¡­"

    Xiang Li interrupted with more giggles, "Revealed everything toward to you but you still got killed."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly replied, "Erm, it is only the theory part. I need to reach the proper cultivation realm in order to be truly powerful."

    "If you''ve only known the theory part then how do you manage to time travel and made that earlier Thunder Talisman?" Xiang Li could not resist asking.

    "That is only because I am a genius. As long as I''ve that knowledge, I can make anything possible even without practicing it." Ji Yuan dered proudly.

    Xiang Li: ...

    Then how did you die in the first ce...

    <One day, Ji Yuan is taking a shower in the bathroom when Xue Qianxue has dropped into his bathtub.>

    <Xue Qianxue is actually only trying to get Ji Yuan''s interest and to peep at him but s, she has slipped and had identally dropped into his bathtub.>

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    <Xue Qianxue quickly says, "Don''t get me wrong! I''m only catching a thief on the rooftop when I''ve slipped!">

    <But Ji Yuan is very cool to it and he calmly tells her to leave, showing no interest to her whatever so. Other than cultivation, he has no other interest.>

    <This breaks Xue Qianxue''s poor heart because she is now a fangirl of Ji Yuan.>

    <But just as she is about to leave, Ji Yuan says to her. "Wait a minute! Are you being afflicted by a strange heat that causes you to have the urge to bath for hours every day?">

    <Xue Qianxue gasps, "How do you know?">

    <Ji Yuan answers coolly, "That is because you have the Icy Divine Body and you''ve been trying to practice the fire profound skills to keep your icy body in check, am I right? Your upper axis upoint and your middle axis upoint, do you feel difort in those areas? And it gets increasing painful as times go by. If I am not wrong, you won''t live past 18 because of this.">

    <Xue Qianxue gasps again, "How...do you know about...this?">

    Xiang Li suggested, "Because you''ve peep at her before?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "I just know with my superior divine sense." Ji Yuan frowned.

    "There is divine sense in this cultivation world?" Xiang Li asked curiously with a giggle.

    "The Demonic Book of Darkness will reveal everything to me if I want to know anything about any heroines."

    Xiang Li: ...

    Seeing that Xiang Li was not convinced, Ji Yuan quickly added clumsily. "In the future, she will die because of the afflictions of her Icy Divine Body. So I have already known about her condition. So this time I am now trying to save her life with my foreknowledge."

    <Ji Yuan calmly says, "Only I can help you to cure you of your afflictions. Now remove your clothes and I will apply the cure for you.">

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Big Brother, isn''t this too lewd for age 13-15 readers?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "The readers will love it, especially the three dirty old men that I am writing to impress. Haha."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li said weakly, "Big Brother, I am thinking that¡­"

    "You are already thinking that this cultivation hero is going to be super awesome, am I right?" Ji Yuanughed jovially. "He ispletely perfect."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes before saying weakly, "Well, please continue¡­"

    <Xue Qianxue looks at Ji Yuan in the eyes and hesitates for a while. But only for a while before she says to Ji Yuan, "I will strip for you to take a look. I trust you.">

    <Ji Yuan said coolly, "I am a perfect gentleman. I will not do anything funny. You can trust me to cure you or you can take away my life!"

    <Xue Qianxue lowers her head to ask shyly, "Can you really cure me?">

    <Ji Yuan answers coolly, "I can surely cure you with my advance medical knowledge. My master is a medical saint.">

    Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li, "After I''ve cured her after giving her several treatments, she will fall madly in love with me because she can never forget my manly touches on her body."

    Xiang Li: ...

    "So who is the second maiden that you want to write about?" Xiang Li quickly asked weakly.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he started to smile wryly, "Jiajia. In my story, I''ll be the one screwing her and not the other way around. And I will be the super smart cultivator instead of her."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Big Brother, why is that I''m thinking that you''re actually writing a revenge story on the heroines instead?" Xiang Li weakly said to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan denied it immediately, "Rubbish! I''m not that petty!"

 Chapter 314 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (4)

    Ji Yuan said coolly to Xiang Li, "I am going to write about Jiajia next. But first I''ve to write about Guo Taiming. Every story needs a local bully that will call the MC a trash."

    <A few dayster, Guo Taiming had confronted Ji Yuan coldly, "The ss beauties belong to me. You''re nothing but a lowly bronze trash that cannot advance to a silver realm level. As for me, I''m already at the silver realm cultivation level.">

    <But Ji Yuan calmly ignore him by walking away. It is because he only wants to cultivate in peace and have no time to entertain Guo Taiming. >

    <Guo Taimingughs to the other bullies that he has brought along, "This Ji Yuan is nothing but a trash.>

    <"Boss, so what are you going to do with this Ji Yuan?" One of the bullies say.>

    <Guo Taiming smiles coldly, "Don''t we have an expedition to the wilderness tomorrow?  I can make use of this opportunity to humiliate Ji Yuan in front of all the girls.">

    <The next day, the entire ss is on an expedition to the wilderness.>

    <Mo Bei did not go with them but had told them that they have to explore the wilderness as a big group and they have to arrive at the destination area in under six hours. This is their wilderness training.>

    <As the ss set off into the wilderness, Ji Yuan is quickly surrounded by Qianxue, Jiajia, Chengxi, Yan''Er, Yuluo and Little Princess who are all giving him all kinds of food and treats.>

    <"Ji Yuan, are you tired?" They ask.>

    <Ji Yuanughed, "We have only just set off. How could I be tired? Haha.">

    <"Ji Yuan, this is the meal that I''ve made. I can share with you¡­">

    <Ji Yuan answered them, "In that case, I shall not be too polite. Haha.">

    Xiang Li said, "They are literally throwing themselves at you. Is that realistic?"

    "Haha. That is because they are all secretly in love with me and have no eyes for the others." Ji Yuan dered proudly.

    "If Big Brother says so." Xiang Li replied weakly.

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "Haha. Wait till you hear the next fun part."

    <All of a sudden Guo Taiming has suddenly said to Ji Yuan, "Do you dare to have a man to man fight with me? The winner shall eat the girls'' sandwiches.">

    <Ji Yuan returns a solemn look, "The girls'' sandwiches are from their lovely hearts. You can''t have it therefore I will fight you.">

    <All the little maidens are all gasping with watery eyes when they had heard Ji Yuan.>

    Xiang Li muttered, "It is too mushy¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That is the way it should be."

    <Guo Taiming hums coldly, "You''re merely a bronze realm trash. Do you think that you are able to defeat a silver realm prodigy like myself?">

    <He is actually pleased that Ji Yuan has epted his challenge; it is because he has brought a profound treasure with him that can drain Ji Yuan of his profound strength permanent and adding it to his own. In this way, Ji Yuan will be a bronze realm cultivator forever.>

    <Ji Yuan says coolly, "I am trash? We shall see who the trash is then.">

    <The ss of twentyds and little maidens has all gathered around Guo Taiming and Ji Yuan. Naturally theds support Guo Taiming while the little maidens support Ji Yuan.>

    <Guo Taiming makes his attack first but Ji Yuan coolly steps aside and even trips him, causing him to fall t into the ground and broke his teeth!>

    <"Is this what you''re capable of? A silver cultivation realm that can''t even defeat a bronze realm noob like me." Ji Yuan smiled.>

    <"You!!!" Guo Taiming was enraged as he quickly disyed his profound technique, releasing a wave of profound energy wave that speeds toward Ji Yuan.>

    <However Ji Yuan easily step aside, avoiding the profound energy wave as he throws a rock at Guo Taiming, smashing his face hard. "Is that what you got? Is this the best that you''ve got?">

    "Big Brother, where that rockes from?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I pick it of course."

    "But you didn''t mention it in the story." Xiang Li pointed out.

    Ji Yuan replied righteously, "It ismon sense that I am super fast and can pick things up without anyone noticing. So I am not mentioning it."

    Xiang Li nodded weakly, "Alright then¡­"

    But did Big Brother mentions that he is super fast earlier in the first ce? Speed can be cultivate by a mere book? Isn''t it through sheer hard work and training? Isn''t Big Brother in a body of a 13 year now, so where did his speede from?

    "But your opponent is a silver realm expert, howe he is weaker than you?" She asked again.

    But Ji Yuan ignored her and continued to write;

    <Now Guo Taiming realizes that he is being outssed by Ji Yuan. Therefore he decides to use his profound treasure which can enable a soul attack on Ji Yuan. In this way, he can disable Ji Yuan permanently without anyone noticing and at the same time he can also win easily!>

    <So heunches his soul attack immediately on Ji Yuan!>

    "Big Brother, isn''t soul attack an immortal mythical ss type of attack? Howe the lowly cultivators in your story can use one? Plus he is only a kid." Xiang Li asked again. "Isn''t it a little too unrealistic?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is my story. I write whatever I want. And stop interrupting at the most exciting part."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang wasughing as she listened in secret to their conversations, "Now I am beginning to like this master of ours. He is just making whatever things he wants."

    <Ji Yuan suddenly feels a suppression enveloping him and realizes that he is being attacked by a powerful form of soul attack. However as he is a practitioner of the Demon Book of Darkness, he is immune to all forms of soul attack.>

    <In fact, this gives him an opportunity to turn the table on Guo Taiming.>

    <Ji Yuan smiles coolly and all of a sudden he has reversed the suppression upon Guo Taiming!>

    <Guo Taiming has suddenly fallen upon his knees as his profound strength is being taken by Ji Yuan!>

    <All of a sudden there is a golden aura around Ji Yuan as he has a sudden breakthrough to the silver realm level while no one notices that Guo Taiming is now being reduced to a bronze realm level!>

    <"Ji Yuan has a breakthrough!">

    <"He is a silver level now and he is no longer the ss trash?!">

    <"Howe Guo Taiming isn''t looking too alright?"><sub> </sub>

    <"Boss, are you alright?!" Guo Taiming''s henchmen immediately surrounded him but Guo Taiming had already fainted.>

    <"Ji Yuan has defeated a superior level cultivator and achieves a breakthrough at the same time!">

    Xiang Li muttered to herself, "Won''t they feel weird why Guo Taiming has suddenly fainted all of a sudden without my Big Brother hitting him. Why are they all behaving as though my Big Brother has beaten up Guo Taiming and is like the winner¡­"

    But she decided to keep quiet because Ji Yuan had a most excited look while he continued to write furiously.

    <The whole group soon reaches the end of their expedition. Guo Taiming of course has regained his consciousness and he is the only ident along the way.>

    <Ji Yuan has suddenly whispered to Jiajia. "I need a favor from you to enter the alchemist guild. I know that you''re the grand-daughter of the guild head.">

    <Jiajia is so startled and delighted that Ji Yuan is finally talking to her so she nods eagerly, "I will do anything for you!">

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    The real Jiajia isn''t like this¡­Big Brother is twisting everything in his favor¡­

    <"Extend your hand for me." Ji Yuan says.>

    <Jiajia curiously extends her hand and is startled when Ji Yuan has grabbed hold of her fingers. She is silently thinking shyly; Ji Yuan is holding my hands now¡­>

    <Ji Yuan says coolly, "Don''t get me wrong. I have no ill-intentions.">

    Fairy Anyangughed as she whispered to Xiang Li, "He has every ill-intention to woo all the girls but he is writing as though he is a gentleman while the girls fall in love left and right."

    Xiang Li covered her face with her palms, "I know¡­"

    <All of a sudden Jiajia feels a surge of power coursing through her and her silver realm level 5 has shot up to level 10!>

    <Ji Yuan smiles coolly, "This is my way of saying my gratitude to you."

    <Jiajia simply cannot believe that Ji Yuan can actually help her to gain 5 whole levels to her cultivation level with only a touch!>

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "I can''t believe it as well. Big Brother, isn''t this too exaggerated?"

    "Of course it is not!" Ji Yuanughed. "Don''t forget that I have two pages of the Demon Book of Darkness! I can do anything I want!"

    "Erm, don''t you have the whole book previously? Howe you''ve only left with two pages now?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "Because I''ve realized that I need some viins in this epic story as wepete for the remaining pages of the Demon Book of Darkness. An epic story isn''tpleted if there are no strongpetitors!" Ji Yuanughed.

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "I think he is too engrossed into his writings that he did not realize that he is writing a different ount from his earlier chapters."

    As though Ji Yuan could hear Fairy Anyang, he quickly said. "Don''t worry Xiang Li. The readers won''t notice at all. They will only be noticing how awesome I am in this story and that is the whole point. I can always make up a story to cover any earlier mistakester."

    "The next part will be even more interesting. Watch this!" Ji Yuan chuckled loudly.

    <Ji Yuan says solemnly all of a sudden. "Jiajia, tonight can youe to the inn?">

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Aren''t my Big Brother and his ssmates all 13 year old kids?

    They sure mature very fast at that age¡­

    <Jiajia gasps shyly, "Really I can?">

    <She is willing to surrender her body to Ji Yuan anytime¡­>

    <Ji Yuan coolly says, "Don''t get me wrong. There are more than one uses for going to the inn.">

    <Jiajia shyly replies with an awkward look, "I know¡­but why are we going to the inn?">

    <Ji Yuanughs, "I can help you to breakthrough to the gold cultivation level. Just now I''ve only help you to the peak of the silver level but actually I can still help you to breakthrough further to the gold cultivation level.">

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "If you can help the others to breakthrough to the gold level, why are you struck at the bronze level and has to absorb the profound strength of Guo Taiming to breakthrough to the silver level¡­"

    "Wait Xiang Li¡­don''t break my train of thoughts! I can give a reasonable exnationter¡­" Ji Yuan muttered excitingly as he continued to write with great fervor.

    <Ji Yuan says solemnly, "But there is a little problem though. You''ve to strip so that I can examine your body carefully to apply my golden hands on you. Are you willing to do so?">

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    <Jiajia nods shyly as she asks, "As long as I can breakthrough to the gold level, I am willing. But can you really help me to breakthrough to the gold level?"

    <Ji Yuan says coolly, "You can trust me on this. I am the only disciple of the greatest medical saint in the Divine Continent. With my golden hands, I can even aid you to be the strongest cultivator as well by unlocking all 47 of your profound upoints.">

    <Jiajia is truly shocked; it is because the maximum upoints a cultivator can unlock is only 7 of the profound upoints and most cultivators can only unlock 2-4 in their entire cultivation lifetime.>

    <Ji Yuan says to her, "You don''t have to believe me now but seeing is believingter. Try it and you will do. After I''ve applied my golden hands on you, you will know that I''m real."

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "Erm, is he writing I''m a con-artist that''s picking girls left and right with his golden hands?"

    Xiang Liughed weakly, "I think Big Brother is writing ''The Most Lecherous Cultivator Ever''."

    Ji Yuan wasughing, "So Xiang Li, what do you think? Am I smarter than Jiajia now?"

    Xiang Li said weakly, "The real Jiajia will probably kick your ass for your lewd ideas and will never strip for you¡­"

    "Of course she will!" Ji Yuan insisted righteously. "It is a great temptation for anyone including Jiajia if you give them the option to choose between progression or no progression in their cultivations."

    "Except that you seem to forget that Jiajia is already a peaked great saintess. So she won''t." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin as he frowned. "You got a little point¡­maybe I should tempt Jiajia with a sentient immortal sword¡­"

    Fairy Anyang was speechless when she had heard Ji Yuan; is he thinking of giving me away so that he can bang this Jiajia?!

    <Ji Yuan is now alone with Jiajia in the inn room.>

    "Big Brother, how did you manage to get an inn room? You''re underage!" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to mutter weakly, "In Glory City, even babies can rent an inn room. No questions will be asked."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    <Ji Yuan now says to Jiajia as he takes out three long needles. "You had already seen that I can help you to increase your cultivation level earlier. Right now, I am going to increase your cultivation realm but you must first agree to all my conditions first before we can continue."

    <Jiajia says, "Please state all your conditions."

    <Ji Yuan replies, "First, you must tell no one about this."

    <Jiajia replies, "This is totally reasonable.">

    <Ji Yuan begins to sigh deeply before he says solemnly, "I''m not any easy man. If I''ve seen your body, I will surely take responsibility for it. But you have to agree that you have to be faithful only toward me. In return, I will take you as my future consort. But if you were to be unfaithful toward, I will banish you out of my sight away forever and will also take back the cultivation realms that you''ve gained through me.">

    <Jiajia immediately replies without any hesitation, "I am most willing!">

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes as she muttered weakly, "Big Brother, you can''t take away cultivation realms from the others¡­"

    "I''ve the Demonic Book of Darkness, remember? I can do anything, ANYTHING! Haha." Ji Yuan interrupted with loud chuckle.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    <Ji Yuan looks at Jiajia emotionless as he says, "You can strip now. I will help you to increase your cultivation realm now.">

    <Jiajia nods before she slowly stripped away her clothing piece by piece¡­>

    <What follow next is several indescribable scenes *censor* *censor* *censor*>

    <Finally Ji Yuan says, "Reach into your inner cultivation sea. How do you feel now?">

    <Jiajia is stunned; she is now a gold realm cultivator now! Not only that, her profound strength, her soul strength and spirit strength all have a huge increase at the same time!>

    <"All my 47 upoints are cleared?!" Jiajia is stunned.

    <Ji Yuan smiles, "In the future, your cultivation realm will increase faster than anyone and you will be the top cultivator in the entire Divine Continent.">

    <Jiajia gasps with shock, "Really?">

    Even Xiang Li was asking, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course. The entire Divine Continent is only a mortal realm. I am after all from the Divine Realm and I can defeat any of the top cultivators in thisnd."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes, "Big Brother, when did you ever say that you are from the Divine Realm?"

    Even Fairy Anyang was muttering with disbelief, "He is just bbering along as he writes¡­"

    But Ji Yuanughed, "Did I forget to mention that I am the reincarnation of the Ancient Heretic God? Haha. That is why I can use the Demonic Book of Darkness. I''ve cultivated a specialw. As long as the Heavens and the Earth exist, I will never truly die. Haha."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "And as long as I want it, all my opponents will be killed by me in one hit. Do you know that in the story, I am also known as the One-Punch Cultivator Ji Yuan." Ji Yuan continued tough.<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "Then how did you die in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm¡­" All of a sudden Ji Yuan pped his fists, "That''s it. It is because my enemy the Evil Emperor has mastered the profoundws of time and space! That is why! The backstabbing Evil Emperor had ambushed me while I was holding onto my dead Jiajia."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "He is really making up as he writes along the way. His story has no plots at all."

    Xiang Li asked, "Then why didn''t you one-punch kill this Evil Emperor before the tragedy had struck?"

    Ji Yuan said with great seriousness, "That is because there is totally no point in it. Even if I can kill the Evil Emperor, he will not truly die and will only lose one cultivation realm. Therefore I can only try to find a way to truly kill him first."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Why can''t you kill him until his cultivation realm has dropped to nothing? Then won''t he not be a threat anymore? If I were you, I will kill him repeatedly and I can loot him as well."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "Looking at his expression, I am betting that he didn''t even think of that before."

    "Well, the pages of the Demonic Book of Darkness may not be with him. I''ve to ensure first that I have the pages first or else I can''t be a True God in the future." Ji Yuan said weakly. "That is my true goal."

    Xiang Li just kept quiet but she was thinking; how did you lose the pages of the Demonic Book of Darkness in the first ce if you are so all-powerful.

    And the goal is to write about an impressive cultivation hero and not a True God story¡­

    Fairy Anyang was shaking her head as she whispered to Xiang Li, "I am betting my everything that our master is going to fail this trial. His cultivation story is full of broken plot holes."

    Ji Yuan wasughing, "Xiang Li, keep it up! I have you to thank for making my story such a perfect story! You''re really so insightful! Haha."

    Xiang Li was muttering weakly, "You''re wee¡­" But secretly she was sighing that she was making the story worse for her Big Brother.

    "Now I am going to write something very cool. Read this!" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    <Ji Yuan now says to Jiajia. "Even though you want to give me your body now but I am a gentleman. You have to wait until you''vee of age. But rest assures that once you''re of age, I will surely take you."

    <Jiajia is truly touched by Ji Yuan''s manly vibes even though he is only still a kid.>

    <Ji Yuan then p on Jiajia''s bare butt and tells her to go. It is because he is now pretending to be greatly exhausted by the effort of unlocking her 47 upoints in order to win her sympathy.>

    <This pretense instantly wins over Jiajia''s heart to him.>

    <But in secret, Ji Yuan is now working on using his golden hands on Feiyue, Yan''Er, Chengxi, Yuluo and Little Princess as well. And of course, cute Qianxue is also his target.>

    Xiang Li eximed weakly, "Big Brother, why is that I feel that you are trying to make them all into your harem? Aren''t you supposed to write about an impressive cultivation hero?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Behind every great cultivation hero is his harem of consorts. Therefore I''ve to start off with writing my harem first. I can''t allow them to be with any others."

 Chapter 316 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (6)

    <Ji Yuan has summoned Qianxue, Feiyue, Yuluo, Little Princess, Chengxi and Yan''Er to his inn room and he is now saying to them. "I can help you all to be the first in the ss by giving everyone a perfect 10 for your cultivation exams. I''m sure that you have seen an improvement in Jiajia''s cultivation realm by now.">

    <All the little maidens are all saying pitiful to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, please help us! We will do anything for you!">

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "This is a little gross. Why would they all willingly go to your inn room and be manipted by you so easily¡­"

    These heroines that she had known were all strong-willed and would never be so docile¡­and shameless as in the story that Ji Yuan that had written.

    But Ji Yuan continued to grin as he continued to write with great pleasure;

    <Ji Yuan says, "At first I didn''t want to use my god-like cultivation to help mere mortals but you have shared your sandwiches with me so now I am repaying your favor to me in a super big way.">

    <He paused briefly before saying, "All you have to do is to strip in front of me and I will use my golden hands on you. Anyone that is not willing can leave now. I won''t force any of you.>"

    <But all the little maidens are all shouting, "We''re all willing to strip in front of you. Ji Yuan can do whatever you want with us with your golden fingers.">

    <Ji Yuan replies coolly, "But I am a responsible man as well. I will take all of you as my future consorts. How about it?">

    <All the maidens reply with great delight, "We are all d to be our Lord Ji Yuan''s consorts! This is the purpose of our life, not cultivation!">

    Ji Yuan could not resistughing out loud when he had penned to this passage. "Haha. I AM THE DOMINANT ALPHA!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes before saying weakly to him, "Big Brother, this doesn''t sound right. You''re asking a batch of 13 year olds lolitas to strip in front of you and you are rubbing your fingers on their nude bodies. Be careful that you may be cklisted by the FBI.">

    "Nonsense Xiang Li! They are all my real life consorts. This story is just a fiction." Ji Yuanughed. "And what is this FBI thing?"

    "Forever Banned Individuals." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, this isn''t funny¡­"

    Ji Yuan continued to write about how the little maidens were all pleasured by him and they all made an oath to follow him forever.

    <And so Ji Yuan spent the entire night looking at their naked bodies¡­>

    ¡­

    ¡­

    ¡­

    "Finally it is done!" Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Now for the next part of the story!"

    Xiang Li smiled weakly¡­

    Fairy Anyang was shaking her head, "He actually spent three hours of writing to describe their bodies and faces¡­I can''t believe this¡­"

    Xiang Li whispered back weakly, "I''m afraid that this trial may have taken away the sanity of my Big Brother¡­"

    <Ji Yuan has now walked into the local alchemist guild.>

    <He has decided to concoct some special profound pills to further improve his cultivation realm.>

    <Using the gold pass that he had obtained from Jiajia, he calmly shes it and immediately he is being surrounded by several helpful attendants.>

    <A head attendant immediately said sweetly to him, "My lord, what can we do to help you?">

    <Ji Yuan saw that this head attendant with long silver hair is really stunning and he is bewitched by her instantly.>

    <But he calmly says, "I want an alchemist room. The most expensive type. I only need it for just one day."

    <The head attendant weakly says, "My lord, the most expensive alchemist room will be 10 000 high grade spirit stones a day. May I suggest¡­">

    <Ji Yuan coolly interrupts, "Do you think that I cannot afford it?">

    <He immediately dropped a bag of high grade spirit stones into her hands. "There is more than 100 000 high grade spirit stones in here. The rest are tips for you.">

    <The head attendant is stunned. This young stranger who looks like a kid is freaking rich!>

    Xiang Li asked weakly, "Big Brother, where did you get your spirit stones from? Don''t tell me you are a rich young master?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I''ve loot it from Guo Taiming of course when I''ve defeated him."

    "But you didn''t mention it." Xiang Li frowned.

    "Losers in this cultivation world will automatically lose their possessions." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    "Then isn''t this Guo Taiming a little unrealistic rich for a 13 year old?" Xiang Li pointed out.

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "These are little technicalities and won''t affect the story. Stop dwelling on these little things."

    Xiang Li: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    <The head attendant takes the high grade spirit stones from Ji Yuan with delightful smile. "Please hold on while I go and prepare your alchemist room for you.">

    <As Ji Yuan waits for the head attendant to check the alchemist room for him, he notices that there is a hall with many people that are pasting papers on it so he asks. "What is that hall?">

    <An attendant smiles, "Alchemists can ask their questions there and any alchemists can also write the answers back."

    <Ji Yuanughs, "Then I am going there to answer everyone''s answers there!"

    <And he promptly walks over to the hall.>

    <The attendant is secretly mocking him to the other attendants, "He is just a rich brat! Nowadays the kids all think that they are super smart but they know nothing at all!">

    <All the attendants are allughing together and theyugh even more when they saw that Ji Yuan is now writing on the papers.>

    <Ji Yuan isughing as he writes the answers to all the alchemist questions, "You dummy. This is such an easy question to answer. You should go back to be a farmer instead of an alchemist¡­">

    <An attendant who is following Ji Yuan says weakly to herself, "This paper belongs to our alchemist head. You dare to call him a dummy. You''re literally courting your own doom.">

    <By now the head attendant has returned. "My lord, your alchemist room is ready. Please follow me.">

    <Ji Yuan coolly put down the paper back to the drawers as he follows the head attendant. "You look very pretty. So what is your name?">

    <The head attendant smiles, "My lord, my name is Bai Qianfeng.">

    <Ji Yuan looks at her butt and bosom, "Well Qianfeng, I see that you do have some potential in cultivation. Why don''t I help you a little bit for your cultivation?"

    <Bai Qianfeng smiles weakly, "My lord, you must really be joking with me. I''ve no cultivation talent at all.">

    <All of a sudden Ji Yuan presses his hand on her bosom and catches her by her waist¡­>

    <Bai Qianfeng is shocked, "My lord, what are you doing?!">

    <"Don''t be misunderstood." Ji Yuan coolly says. "Check your inner cultivation sea.">

    <Bai Qianfeng is suddenly shocked, "I am at the peak of the bronze cultivation realm now? How is it possible?">

    <Ji Yuan coolly says, "Come with me to the alchemist room and I can help to improve your cultivation realm even further with my golden hands. Are you willing?>

    <Bai Qianfeng begins to nod her head excitingly and she is being overwhelmed by tears of rejoice; she is finally a cultivator now. "I am most willing!">

    <Ji Yuan has suddenly turned solemn, "However, you must strip to nothingness. Are you willing to do so?"

    <Bai Qianfeng nods excitingly, "I am most willing!">

    <Ji Yuan sighs all of a sudden, "However there is still a little problem. You look a little older and is past the age of cultivation. How old are you now?">

    <Bai Qianfeng stammers, "I am 18¡­">

    <Ji Yuan shakes his head, "This is a little too old, I am afraid. Even if I can help you to reach the silver realm cultivation but it will be difficult for you to advance further.">

    <Bai Qianfeng looks a little disappointed, "Is there really no chance for me to advance further?">

    <Ji Yuan turns to her to say, "There is but you have to dual cultivate with me. Are you willing to do so?">

    <Bai Qianfeng nods her head eagerly, "I do anything for this. I am most willing!">

    Xiang Li said weakly, "Big Brother, I''ve never heard of an age limit to cultivation. As the saying goes, cultivation has no limit and it is never toote to start¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "This may be the case but everyone writes like this nowadays. We''re only following the norm. So the younger to cultivate higher, the more potential!"

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    <o>,m "But you''re only a 13 year old and you want to bang a 18 year old¡­"</o>

    Ji Yuanughed, "Although I am only currently 13 but I will surely grow up in the future. So let''s not worry about this small detail."

    In the meantime, the three spirit old men were looking at Ji Yuan who was writing with great excitement.

    The green hair old man said, "Among all the trial candidates, this candidate seems to be putting in the most earnest efforts."

    The ck hair old man nodded, "There are many candidates that take so long to even write a single page. Some are even spending so much time to plot their stories that they literally write almost nothing concrete at the very end."

    The white hair old man stroked his long beard, "Maybe this candidate may be an intellect candidate after all¡­"

    <When Ji Yuan has left the alchemist hall, he had not only bedded the head attendant Bai Qianfeng but he had also concocted several profound pills and he had given one to Bai Qianfeng.>

    <When Bai Qianfeng had received the profound pill, she was shocked. "This is a sixth rank miracle pill?!">

    <Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right. And with this, you can be a silver realm cultivator now.">

    <Bai Qianfeng was clearly shocked and words alone could not describe her happiness. If Ji Yuan was not in such a hurry, she would have stripped herself again and surrendered her body to him once again.>

    <Ji Yuan smiled, "We will see each other very soon. In another week, I will look for you and help you to be a gold realm cultivator.">

    <Bai Qianfeng was stunned; a gold realm cultivator is already like an elite cultivator already!>

    <Ji Yuan coolly said, "Although a gold realm cultivator is considered a high level cultivator but there are many hidden realms above it such as the gold core realm, nascent soul and the divine core realm. And further up is the emperor realm level.">

    <Bai Qianfeng had gasped, "I''ve never heard of these realms before. How did you know so much?"

    <Ji Yuan coolly says, "That is because these are immortal realms and I aspire to be a True God in the future. You are really lucky, very lucky to have encountered me. Since we are fated, I will allow you to stay by my side to be my immortal consort in the future then.">

    <Once again, Bai Qianfeng sunk her beautiful head on his bared chest as she gasped, "My lord, I wish to follow you forever!">

    <Ji Yuan patted her bare back as he said solemnly, "If you are ever unfaithful to me then I shall take back the cultivation realms that I''ve bestowed to you. Remember you have my mark in your soul sea now. Unfaithful to me and the wrath of my beastly mark will destroy your cultivation. The name of my beastly mark is 666.">

    Xiang Li said weakly, "Big Brother, in real life, Sister Qianfeng''s cultivation realm is higher than you and she is a real immortal god. Have you forgotten how she has helped you to form your soul core? Your cultivation is shit in her eyes. I am very sure that you''re taking your vengeance on her because this is all the opposite in real life."

    "Come on Xiang Li!" Ji Yuanughed, "As long as you don''t tell any of them, we arepletely safe! Haha."

    He added with a wry grin, "In my story, I am the Alpha of the Alphas! Muhahaha!"

    Xiang Li sighed softly; she had wanted to tell him that such a beastly mark to destroy and to track unfaithfulness did not exist but she decided not to argue anymore.

    Fairy Anyang wasughing nonstop, "This¡­is¡­so¡­funny¡­I feel that¡­I never know that there is a such a funny cultivator in¡­the¡­entire¡­three known realms¡­"

    <After Ji Yuan had left the Alchemist Hall, the Alchemist Grandmaster is staring at the answers that are written in his papers. "WHO IS HE?! Who is the man that says that I should be a farmer instead of an alchemist?!">

    <The Alchemist Grandmaster howled loudly, "He is right, he is right! I should be a farmer instead of an alchemist! Why didn''t I think of such a simple solution myself! He must be a high ranking alchemist and a bona fide genius! Quick! Find him for me! I want to be his disciple!"

    <Everyone is shocked!>

    <Their alchemist grandmaster who is the top alchemist in Glory City will actually want to be a disciple of a kid?!>

    <"Wait a minute. This golden pass. Isn''t this golden pass issue by my grand-daughter Jiajia?" The Alchemist Grandmaster holds the gold pass with trembling fingers. "Find me Jiajia quickly! I want to find this man at all costs!">

    <On the table are a few bottles of residue liquid and that is where the aromatic fragrance hase from. "This is an instant level up concoctions! This man must be a genius! Genius, genius!

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes as she muttered weakly, "Big Brother, you are mixing reality and fiction now. Please wake up to your senses. The real Jiajia is still very busy to have much time with you."

    "Nonsense! Jiajia is only too shy to date me openly. She is actually dying to be with me all the time." Ji Yuan dered proudly.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "You know. Since you''re so eager to bang Jiajia, why don''t you make her into an older maiden so you can actually bang her?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "Jiajia has to be my ssmate then the story will be perfected. Because if we are in the same ss then we can meet every day¡­"

    p "Xiang Li, what if I am drunken one day and Jiajia decides to take advantage of me? That''s it! Then I won''t be in the FBI cklist because she is the one that is taking the initiative!"</anda>

    "But that has to be waited for a little while. I have not written the Auction House arc yet where I will meet Sisi and the Trading House arc where I will meet Maiden Feng¡­"

    Xiang Li was suddenly startled when she noticed that Fairy Anyang was smiling all of a sudden, "You''re right. This master of ours is really interesting. His story is really interesting."

    Xiang Li frowned, "He is only writing soft porn. What is so interesting about it?"

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "He is really very faithful to his beloveds."

    Xiang Li began to flush and giggle at the same time, "Indeed!"

    Ji Yuan was now asking Xiang Li, "I have three interesting arc to write. Which one do you want me to write first?"

    "One; I''m going to the Trading House where I will be showing off my 100% chance to make profound pills of any ranks. There, I will meet Maiden Feng and of course, there will be some troublesome suitors for me to settle because they are my rivals in love. But afterward, Maiden Feng will be so impressed by me that she will give her heart to me. At the same time, I will be super rich and from here, I will build a huge trading empire that rule the entire Divine Continent!"

    Xiang Li smiled weakly; Yea and you forget that except for Glory City, all the other parts of the Divine Continent are enveloped in the Age of Darkness now. So good luck with your get rich dream!

    But she pretended to giggle, "Big Brother, this is such an interesting story arc. I want to hear it!"

    "Wait Xiang Li! I''m not done yet!" Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Or shall I write the Auction House first where I will meet Sisi next? Well, Sisi will be disguising herself as an old woman and I will disguise myself as an old man¡­"

    Xiang Li interrupted curiously, "You know how to disguise?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "My Demonic Book of Darkness allows me to change to any look, alter even my profound animus to anything else and I can even be a woman or a demon. My disguise will be super perfect that no one will be able to see through my disguise!"

    Xiang Li smiled weakly, "That is really impressive¡­"

    "I will see through Sisi''s disguise instantly of course. Because in my presence, no one, not even the Evil Emperor can see through my disguise but I can see through all their disguises!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes; Yea, how did you die in the first ce. Why don''t you disguise yourself then¡­

    "The third one is even more interesting I think." Ji Yuan chuckled. "I will have all my beloved maidens taking the cultivation tests and they will awe everyone with their impressive perfect 10! And they will pass with passing colors and be allowed to go to a better cultivation school. As for me, I will be super humble and I will only have a just pass so that no one can know my true god-like ability!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes; if they all go to a better cultivation school while you stay in a lousy one, how do you stay as ssmates in the first ce¡­

    "So Xiang Li, which one should I write next?" Ji Yuan grinned.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Which one do you want to bang next?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Xiang Li, you really know me best. Very well, I shall write about Feng Minyue next. Haha."

 Chapter 318 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (8)

    "Feng Minyue will finally be mine!" Ji Yuan chuckled aloud.

    "Xiang Li, can you imagine how docile she will be under the great massages of my golden hands and she will be begging me not to leave her for even a single minute!"

    Xiang Li giggled, "But only in Big Brother''s story."

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to write his juicy ount with Feng Minyue, the three spirit old men had suddenly said sternly. "Time up!"

    Ji Yuan was startled and he began to protest immediately.

    "What do you mean by time up? I''ve only just began and it isn''t even a full day yet!"

    The green hair spirit man said coldly, "Did we say anything about a full day? A day is only 12 hrs. Do you think we are so mean as to force you to write for such a long time without giving you a break?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Actually I''m a golden saint and I don''t need a break¡­"

    The white hair old man interrupted, "Surrender your manuscript now and we will judge if you are able to pass this trial."

    Xiang Li was suddenly giggling jovially again, for real. She was only too d this trial had finally ended.

    She hadpletely lost interest in her Big Brother''s story because there were no real bang, bang and her Big Brother was only trying to write a fantasy.

    She thought; my Big Brother won''t give up so easily¡­hehe¡­here is the fun part¡­

    True enough, Ji Yuan began to say shamelessly. "What if I forfeit my break? Can I have more extra time? I don''t mind if you allow me to write for another three days, one week or even one month. I will promise you an epic most impressive cultivation hero¡­"

    The white hair old man sharply said, "NO! Surrender your manuscripts now."

    "No negotiations at all?" Ji Yuan asked weakly.

    "None at all!" The white hair old man answered sternly.

    Ji Yuan looked quite sheepish as he slowly picked up his manuscripts; it was clear to everyone that he was not able to surrender easily.

    "It isn''t fair. I didn''t know that it is actually a 12 hour trial instead of a 24 hour trial. You didn''t set a timer to warn me at all." He said righteously.

    "You didn''t ask." The green hair old man said.

    "In a trial, will you argue with a deste monster when you are about to be killed by it?" The ck hair old man added.

    "Maybe you''re not the intellect cultivator that canplete this trial after all." The white hair old man hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan was totally defeated by the sarcasm remark made by these three cunning spirit old men. With a most unwilling look, he surrendered his manuscripts to them.

    There goes his dream of being an Alpha of the Alphas.

    Worst; he had not yet banged Jiajia or Feng Minyue yet in his story¡­

    When the white hair old man took a first look at the manuscript, he began to smile. "The Greatest Cultivation Hero Ever? This is a totally shameless title."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    That is because youck the culture to appreciate it, that''s why.

    He dared not voice out his thoughts lest they may decide to fail him in a moment of anger.

    Indeed, he forced himself to smile. "Read it and you will know that you''re reading an epic cultivation story!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes when she had heard him.

    Fairy Anyang was now giggling nonstop as she said to Xiang Li, "You know, he didn''t even write anything about being a cultivation hero yet¡­our master is going to fail this trial¡­very badly¡­hehe¡­"

    Xiang Li muttered weakly, "Big Brother won''t fail. He is the very best!"

    The green hair spirit old man had suddenly roared out withughter, "And this greatest ever cultivation hero died in the second paragraph?"

    The other two old men could not resistughing aloud as spirit tears swelled in their eyes, "This isn''t impressive at all¡­"

    Xiang Li face-palmed weakly; told you so¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned as he said solemnly, "This is only the beginning. As a result of my death, I will transmigrate to the past and have a chance to redo the past. From there, I will be the most impressive epic cultivation hero ever."

    "Why don''t you be the greatest cultivation hero first before you reincarnate to a new body. From there, you can cultivate your way up again?" The white hair old man smiled.

    "This is too clich¨¦!" Ji Yuan pointed out. "If the greatest cultivation hero even dies in the first ce then he is not the greatest ever cultivation hero."

    "Maybe this greatest ever cultivation hero is fighting tens or even thousands of top cultivators and hence that is why he has lost his life." Suggested the green hair old man.

    "Again this is too clich¨¦!" Ji Yuan frowned. "If the epic cultivation hero is so smart in the first ce, he won''t even be caught fighting everyone. His EQ must be really too low."

    The three old men immediately frowned; is he trying to imply that their EQ is low?!

    "Then how did your epic cultivation hero even die in the first ce?" The three old men broke out in loud chorus.

    Ji Yuan replied coolly, "My cultivation hero is ambushed by the Evil Emperor when I wasmenting for my dead Jiajia. He has mastered the profound art of time and space. That is why he manages to sneak past my defenses and got me."

    The green hair old man hummed coldly, "Then this isn''t an impressive cultivation hero at all."

    "Hold!" Ji Yuan interrupted. "You ask for an impressive cultivation hero, am I right?"

    The green hair old man smiled, "Of course."

    "Do you deny that the fact that I''ve died a most impressive death then? Imagine this; a hero cultivator holding the arms of his most loved one in her dying breath. And then all of a sudden the Evil Emperor kills the hero cultivator. Won''t this be the most impressive death ever?"

    The three old men: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered to Xiang Li, "This is really such a bad start. They''re already arguing at the very start."

    Xiang Li nodded weakly, "But Big Brother seems to have an upper hand in this."

    "As well as several negative reactions that can cause him to fail this trial." Fairy Anyang chuckled.

    The three old men continued to read rapidly.

    But the white hair old man was soon frowning, "Why should a little maiden that is 13 wants to peep at the body of a 13 year brat?! And she has even dropped into his bathtub. No one will ever fall into the bath tub of another person just like this."

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish; it was because he had dropped into Xue Qianxue''s bathtub previously¡­

    But he quickly protested, "I am a 13 year old hulk, that is why."

    The three old men: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang wasughing nonstop, "Someone please save me. This is so cringing¡­"

    All of a sudden the green hair old man began to frown, "You''re asking a 13 year to strip in front of you? Isn''t this smut?"

    "He should be in the FBI list." The ck hair old man growled.

    The white old man frowned. "It isn''t all. He is asking all the little maidens in his ss to strip too¡­"

    The green hair old man added with shock. "And even the attendant head¡­"

    "Dual cultivation¡­."

    "And he even describes all their features and figures in such detail¡­"

    Xiang Li was flustered when she had heard him; her Big Brother had spent three hours to write in great detail on his harem¡­

    Ji Yuanughed, "Behind every sessful cultivation hero, there is always his harem¡­"

    The while hair old man interrupted, "I am afraid that you can go already. This is because you''ve failed the trial."

    Ji Yuan was shocked. "WHAT?! Did you even read about my cultivation exploits at all?! How can you even dismiss my work just like this?!"

    The ck hair old man threw the manuscripts on the floor by summoning a breeze since he could not really hold the manuscripts. "This is a rubbish work! Your cultivation hero is unrealistic and full of broken plot armors. You are writing a cultivation hero that seems to know everything, do everything and fuck everyone as well. Why don''t you write that you''re superman and are indestructible as well?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "There needs to be some pain points, you know. So I can''t be indestructible¡­"

    The white hair old man interrupted coldly, "Well, you can go now. You''ve failed the trial."

    Ji Yuan appeared to be dazzled by the words as it rung sharply in his mind;

    "YOU HAVE FAILED THE TRIAL¡­"

    "YOU HAVE FAILED THE TRIAL¡­"

    "YOU HAVE FAILED THE TRIAL¡­"

    This is one failure that he cannot ept willingly. After all, he has spent so much effort on it¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I will like a second opinion from another trial spirit¡­"

    The white hair old man hummed coldly as he pointed at a yellow portal, "There is no second opinion. Exit through that portal. Your group is waiting for you outside."

    Seeing that Ji Yuan still refused to move away, he shouted. "OUT YOU GO!!!"

    Ji Yuan shouted back as he quickly moved away, "THE THREE OF YOU ARE OLD FRAGGOTS!!!"

    Since he had already failed his trial, he was back to the crude Ji Yuan again as he grumbled on his way out.

    Xiang Li giggled quietly as she secretly appeared in front of the three spirit old man, stunning them with her sudden appearance. "Heh! What do you think of my story?"

    She had dropped her spirit memory stone into their hands. "This is my story."

    With another chuckle, she quickly floated back into Ji Yuan''s soul sea again before he noticed her.

    Fairy Anyang covered her face with her palms as she whispered to Xiang Li, "Is this your smut collection..."

    The white hair old man had a stunned look, "Did you see what I''ve seen earlier?"

    "I did. If I''m not wrong, isn''t she the Goddess'' Tear?" The ck hair old man gasped.

    "She is actually with this cultivator?" The green hair old man gasped with shock.

    The white hair old man began to say solemnly, "We''ve better take a closer look at his depraved cultivation story again first lest it concerns the fate of the Three Known Realms."

    "I totally agree with you." The green hair old man said all of a sudden.

    The ck hair old man pointed at the memory stone that was given to them, "We have better check what her cultivation story is first."

    "Even if her cultivation story can fulfill our standard, we can''t allow this cultivator to ovee the trial. It is because he has failed already." The white hair old man said solemnly.

    The green hair old man nodded, "There can be no exception."

 Chapter 319 The Most Difficult Trial Ever (9)

    As Ji Yuan was heading toward the exit portal, he was still muttering furiously; he is so close to banging Feng Minyue in his cultivation story!

    Not only that; he had also failed the trial at the same time!

    This was actually the very first time that he had failed the trial in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Xiang Li saw his dark moods and she tried tofort him, "Big Brother, don''t be too sad alright?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not sad."

    "Don''t be too upset, alright?" Xiang Li giggled. "It is only a trial. At most, we can try to track the others downter."

    Ji Yuan grumbled softly, "I am not upset about that either."

    Xiang Li asked with a perplexed look, "Why not? It will be very difficult to find all the maidens again."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That is because I''m very sure that they will all fail the trial as well."

    "They will fail?" Xiang Li was startled, "How do you know?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is because they are only interested in beautiful clothes and their makeups all the time. None of them are honestly interested in cultivation. Moreover they are all saintesses not because of their hard work but it is only because their cultivation ns are rich. They may also probably be born Xiantian and born with a silver spoon as well. They have no idea how hard cultivation is."

    "But what if Big Brother you are wrong? Some of them look like very promising writers." Xiang Li asked with a little hesitation.

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, "Maybe if they are given more time but definitely not in a single day. They will probably be clueless on how to start even in the first ce."

    "Then why are you looking so upset?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "That is because I am so close to banging Maiden Feng, Sisi and Jiajia. I am actually nning a steamy scene with both Sisi and Jiajia together."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "Maybe he is only trying tofort himself for failing the trial."

    "Xiang Li." Ji Yuanughed, "Please don''t tell them what I''ve written alright? Promise!"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Sure!"

    Only to them? What about Xue Qianxue, Jiajia, Saintess Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan?

    When Ji Yuan exited the portal, he found himself outside the trial and back to the tform but the three spirit old men were nowhere to be seen.

    But in front of him were six maidens; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    They all had a downcast look but when they saw Ji Yuan, their heavy moods seemed to have been lifted and they had a delightful look at once.

    Shui Xisi wasughing jovially as she pointed to Ji Yuan, "I told you so! Ji Yuan is too dumb to pass the intellect trial!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am a dummy?!

    But instead of rebuking Shui Sisi, all the maidens were all pping and eximing delightfully;

    "Yes, he is a dummy!"

    "d he is dumb!"

    "Ji Yuan can''t be so smart¡­"

    "He doesn''t know how to write an impressive cultivation hero as well¡­"

    "He was really full of hot air when he first marched inside to take the trial¡­"

    Even Feng Minyue was saying, "He doesn''t look that smart¡­"

    Yu Jingjing was beaming happily, "Great Hero Ji Yuan may not be talented in all areas¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Howe all of you seem so d that I''ve failed my trial? You''ve all failed the trial as well?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Seem that you aren''t so smart after all. We are all here because we can''t pass the trial. Do you have to ask?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Haha. We are the 99.9%."

    A moment ago, all six maidens had a gloomy look; it was because they all shared the same fear that Ji Yuan may have already passed the trial and had abandoned them.

    Xiang Li''s magic can only bring them together if they enter through the same portal and Ji Yuan will probably be taken to another ce.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a vastbyrinth of worlds and once separated, they will have a hard time finding Ji Yuan again.

    But when they saw Ji Yuan again, they were all dancing for joy secretly in their hearts.

    Fairy Anyang was secretly startled; don''t tell me that he has failed the trial on purpose?!

    Ji Yuanughed as heforted the six maidens, "Actually, this trial is a little difficult to ovee, not because weck the intellect but because we don''t know the criteria of these three old men."<sub> </sub>

    "Yea!" Ling Feiyue was upset. "Don''t remind me of these three old men!"

    "They are three froggies!" Little Princess was clearly upset when she was mentioning them as well.

    In fact all six of the maidens were muttering soft curses when they had mentioned the three spirit of men.

    "These three old men are an insult to my intelligence!" Shui Xisi growled. "I will like to see if they can still remain in their jobs for long!"

    At the first opportunity, she wouldin to her Mother Consort and the Great God Pangu to screw these three old men.

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed, "So what did you all write?"

    All of a sudden there was a long silence from the six maidens¡­

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ling Feiyue smiled awkwardly, "How about you? Care to share with us first?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Actually, why don''t we forget about this incident instead?"

    All of a sudden all seven of them were allughing jovially at the same time;

    "Yea, let''s forget about this incident."

    "There is nothing interesting about this trial anyway¡­"

    "What a stupid trial¡­"

    "Maybe they are gays¡­"

    "Surely not!" Ji Yuan wasughing jovially along with them.

    "Looks can be deceiving¡­"

    Everyone was happy again because they had managed to stick together as a party again.

    -

    -

    -

    The three spirit old men were all shaking their heads with strong disapprovals.

    "What is wrong with cultivators nowadays?!" The white hair old man bemoaned.

    "Nothing but harem!" The ck hair old man sighed.

    "We hate harem stories!" The green hair old man shook his fist.

    "How can a maiden willingly shares a man with the other maidens?"

    "The worst thing is about their stories is that all the male lead is this cultivator that is called Ji Yuan¡­"

    "He has probably turned them into his depraved ves, that''s why¡­"

    "d we''ve failed them¡­"

    The white hair old man sighed heavily, "Does no one ever writes epic cultivation stories like the Brokeback Mountain Cultivator, Pink Panther, Cultivator Boys'' Love, Beach Rat Cultivators and Call Me by Your Cultivator Name anymore?"

    The green hair old man was also sighing. "The most impressive cultivation hero is the one with the most manly vibes that can attract other men¡­"

    "Let''s not forget that we have one more story here. This one is from her." The ck hair old man pointed out.

    "Even if she is the Goddess'' Tear, she won''t pass our trial too¡­"

    All of a sudden the three old men were all gasping as they yed the memory stone;

    Xiang Li''s voice was saying sweetly, "He is my cultivation hero."

    The memory stone showed all the different expressions that were made by Ji Yuan and nothing else.

    But of course, these expressions were mostly made when Ji Yuan was banging his women but the three spirit old men did not know about this.

    In the memory stones, Ji Yuan''s joys, sweats, sentiments, excitements and his beautiful face werepiled into a long memory.

    These images of Ji Yuan''s beautiful face and his many different expressions were actually recorded by Xiang Li and she spent all her time reying it.

    When Ji Yuan was banging his women, Xiang Li would be intently looking at his expressions¡­

    "This¡­"

    All three old men were weeping all of sudden as they be ovee by exciting emotions.

    "This is true appreciation of a man''s manly vibes!" The white hair old man dered loudly. "She passes our trial!"

    "Indeed! Indeed!" The other two old men dered emotionally.

 Chapter 320 The Chauvinist Cultivators (1)

    Ji Yuan did not have the chance to do any ''scouting'' because his main beloved maidens were all keeping a close eye on him; strictly no sharing for the time being because Ji Yuan had not been spending much time with them for the past two trials.

    After Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had realized that they had been so close to losing Ji Yuan, they decided to treat him a little nicer and started to shower him with more affection even in the presence of Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue; they simply did not care anymore about maintaining the proper social etiquette anymore.

    After a few days of search for a new trial, Ji Yuan and his party had found another trial in the deep mountains.

    This ce was really beautiful and had many waterfalls.

    When they had arrived at the trial tform, there were already hundreds of other cultivators.

    Ji Yuan did not know whether tough or cry when he had overheard them cursing the three spirit old men from their earlier attempted trial.

    He thought; are these cultivators the failures from myst trial?

    These cultivators were mostly high level cultivators and had a lofty air.

    When they saw Ji Yuan and his group, many of male cultivators were scoffing coldly;

    "A single male cultivator is actually in thepany of several female cultivators."

    "He must be a spineless cultivator."

    "Maybe he is just romancing them¡­"

    Even the female cultivators werementing coldly;

    "Although he is handsome but he is a little too spineless."

    "I doubt that the six veiled maidens that are with him are pretty¡­"

    "Only losers form a group¡­"

    "Maybe he is afraid of taking the trial alone. After all, this is the fifth level."

    "It seems that they are mostly from the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "Why is he a beardless cultivator then? I''ve heard that beardless cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all losers and scums."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are these cultivators too free? Why are they gossiping about me instead of focusing on the trial? And why are they all gathering outside the trial?!

    "Ji Yuan, ignore them." Ling Feiyue hummed coldly as she marched to the ck stele.

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly and saw that they were the only group from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    He began to smile weakly; where are all his fans when he needed them the most?!

    Are there no expert cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?

    Where are his friends or enemies?

    Ji Yuan had an ugly look on his beautiful face as though he wanted to bash the other cultivators.

    Obviously many of the cultivators were actually trying to provoke a fight with him to gauge his strength or reaction.

    For the trial, everyone was more or less a rival as theypeted for the limited resources.

    Even without any mean to check their profound animus, Ji Yuan knew that half of them were probably at the saint level and were all dangerous cultivators.

    He was about to shout back at them, being the uncouth cultivator that he had always been and unmindful of his foul mouth when Bai Qianfeng gently said to him, "My lord, you don''t need to be bothered with any of them. They are not worth our time. Why don''t we check the ck stele instead? I am curious to know why they are all here instead of inside the trial. This trial may have a specific condition to fulfill first."

    Ji Yuan frowned unwillingly¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she said gently to him, "Aren''t you a romantic cultivator? Can you be more gracious and more romantic?"

    She had been with Ji Yuan long enough to know about his short tempers.

    But she also knows that Ji Yuan is really different from the other men; he is really sincerely nice to his beloved and he will endure their gossips about him. Others may scold him for being a spineless man who will endure insults and teases from his beloveds but Ji Yuan actually does not mind at all.

    He mayint about it or muttering curses about it but in his heart, he actually did not mind. It is because Ji Yuan is actually a crude cultivator or rather a grumbly cultivator who tends toin about everything due to his years of being the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Even poor Shangguan Yan was not spared his constant grumbling.

    But Ji Yuan is now much kinder to Shangguan Yan and had totally restricted himself from grumbling against her; this applies to all his consorts and beloveds as well as he realized that he had a tendency to be a horrible foul mouth crude cultivator.<sub> </sub>

    In the eyes of the majority of the rich cultivators, he is an uncouth, uneducated and a peasant in the world of cultivation.

    Not that Ji Yuan really cares about their views on him because he can actually be quite thick skin and know when to retreat strategically at times.

    "That veiled maiden in white. Yes, the one with the puny lizard and the ugly green bird. Is she here to take the trial or she is here to take her pets for a walk?" A cultivatorughed aloud.

    This caused many of the cultivators tough jovially at the same time.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan buried his face into his right hand as he muttered, "This is a terrible mistake¡­"

    Before the cultivator who had first poked fun at Bai Qianfeng knew what was actually happening, she had shed next to him and had sent him flying with her fists!

    The cultivatornded with a loud stump as he struggled to pick himself up with disbelief; he is a great saint and he cannot believe that he can be tossed up in the air just like this.

    But when he saw the profound animus that was on the veiled white maiden, he was furthered startled; she has the aura of a peaked great saintess!

    He had just provoked a peaked top cultivator!

    Before he could react, Bai Qianfeng had unsheathed her celestial-step sword with a brilliant sh of light and had shed him twice on his chest, causing him to fly through the ground in a long streak of dust and debris!

    Again, he was stunned; her sword art is extremely swift and she has a celestial-step divine sword!

    He could not even react in her presence as he felt her overwhelming aura suppressing himpletely!

    How was it even possible?!

    He was a great saint, a power cultivator with the Ultimate Golden Body Profound Art!

    He was not the only cultivator that was startled; the hundreds of cultivators were all gasping with shock at the speed attack that was disyed by Bai Qianfeng.

    She had suddenly shed ahead of her party to assault her offender without even disying a hint of profound strength and had even shed with her celestial divine sword in a blink of an eye.

    Under Ji Yuan''s asional guidance, Bai Qianfeng''s reflexes are now much quicker because Ji Yuan specialty is his speed.

    Bai Qianfeng was about to sh again to make her next offensive move when Ji Yuan had suddenly shed ahead of her as he caught hold of her shoulder, "That is enough. He may die."

    When Ji Yuan had suddenly made his movement, many of the cultivators had broken into cold sweat because they could barely see how he had made his move.

    And moreover Ji Yuan had barely even pronounced his profound animus at all.

    They were all thinking; if he had disyed his full profound aura then won''t his speed be doubled?

    Luckily for them, Ji Yuan was actually not a power cultivator so he had weak profound animus. As a matter of fact, his profound specialty was actually not in his profound aura that could enhance his speed or the power of his defenses. Rather, it was in his profound recovery.

    The great saint that was beaten up by Bai Qianfeng was now pleading with fear, "Heroine, surely we can talk things over? This is¡­only¡­just a¡­tease¡­"

    Ji Yuan gently nodded to Bai Qianfeng to hint her to be more forgiving and to stay out of trouble.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Since my lord says so then so be it."

    Then she turned to face the pleading great saint who was heaving a soft sigh of relief. "But only if you can take a bite from my puny lizard and my ugly bird."

    The great saint began to heave with great relief; just a puny lizard and an ugly bird¡­

    But his relief was suddenly wiped out when the ''puny lizard'' and the ''ugly bird'' had both transformed into two gigantic seventh rank profound beasts in front of him, stunning all the cultivators who were in the midst of their jovialughter...

    "This...this...is..."

    "These two puny beasts...just be two seventh rank profound beasts..."

    The great saint immediately fainted from shock while the jaws of all the cultivators had all dropped and they did not dare to make even a feeble sound at all.

    The deadly silence had in fact intensified further when the veil from Bai Qianfeng had suddenly loosened to reveal her unearthly heavenly beauty.

    Immediately all the male cultivators were all gasping as they could not believe such an unearthly heavenly beauty could be among them!

    Even the female cultivators all had a envious stunned look as well!

    Ji Yuan began to frown immediately when his Qianfeng''s veil had identally been loosened and he was suddenly seeing green from all the lecherous eyes that were around him.

 Chapter 321 The Chauvinist Cultivators (2)

    Ji Yuan had not gotten over his green tunnel vision when Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had all taken off their veils.

    Not only was Ji Yuan stunned but all the cultivators that were looking them were also stunned!

    It was because these six maidens were all astonishing beauties and none of the maidens among them could even bepared to them!

    Ji Yuan frowned with a perplexed look. "What''s the¡­"

    Why did they have to take off their veils at the same time?! This is too attention grabbing. We have to be low profile¡­

    Feng Minyue and the rest of the maidens naturally had their very own reasons for doing so; they were quite indignant when they had heard the cultivators calling them old hags behind their veils.

    Who says we are old hags?!

    And that was why they had all taken off their veils at the same time to prove to everyone that they were a bunch of blind cultivators.

    All the cultivators, men and women were all gasping weakly; the seven of them, including Ji Yuan were all very good looking¡­

    Ji Yuan growled softly before he took out his saint-step divine sword, "Who says I am a weak cultivator? Who wants a one to one with me?"

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue: ¡­

    They were mostly thinking; Ji Yuan is showing off again¡­

    When Ji Yuan had taken out his saintly sword, everyone was further startled!

    A saintly sword is like the ultimate cultivation treasure!

    And many of the cultivators were now staring at Ji Yuan with a murderous intent but none of the cultivators dared to make a move against him.

    Ji Yuan of course knew that he was not the match of these cultivators if they decided to massacre him at the same time. But he was confident that his party would be able to defer them.

    For the very first time, he was thankful to the puny lizard and stupid bird in his party because they were two gigantic seventh rank profound beasts that could easily wipe out even the saint cultivators.

    Even Ji Yuan had no wish to test his luck by fighting his Qianfeng''s two pets.

    He coolly walked over to the ck stele with his party before saying, "I wonder who the trial really is and why are they all gathering around here for?"

    When Ji Yuan got to the ck stele to read it, he gasped softly; there was only a single sentence in it, the Trial of the Transmigration.

    "What is this supposed to mean?" Yu Jingjing asked curiously. "And why isn''t the trial starting yet?"

    Feng Minyue said, "It may be either the numbers of cultivators have not reached the desired count or the trial will only open under a certain conditions. We have to wait."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "But don''t worry, the trial will be opening soon."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "How do you know?"

    "I am able to sense it with my divine sense." Bai Qianfeng smiled. "It won''t be long before the trial portal will appear."

    Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue and Shui Xisi were actually quite startled and looked a little perplexed; how is it possible? Isn''t that considered as a cheat already if her divine sense is so formidable?

    Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were not surprised; after all they had already known that Bai Qianfeng is an immortal cultivator. Not just an immortal cultivator but a True Goddess.

    Ji Yuan was grinning to himself; he had actually banged an immortal goddess and Qianfeng is one of his main consorts as well.

    He was suddenly frowning; Not yet my official consort yet. I''ve got to marry her ASAP. These lecherous cultivators here are all looking at my Qianfeng with their depraved eyes¡­

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly said to Shui Xisi, "Maiden Xisi, we got to talk. Are you free to talk? In private."

    The rest of the party was startled when Bai Qianfeng had suddenly taken the initiative to talk to Shui Xisi out of the blue and she had wanted a private talk.

    Come to think of this, Ji Yuan could not remember Bai Qianfeng exchanging any greeting with Shui Xisi since day one¡­

    Shui Xisi merely smiled, "Sure¡­"

    All of a sudden a big and beefy cultivator had approached them. He was smiling to Ji Yuan and looking at Ji Yuan''s saintly sword at the same time, "I am a great saint from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. Please do not misunderstand my intentions, I''m not after your divine swords¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; then why are you looking constantly at my divine sword?

    "My name is Saint Tie Wangming. I''ve the intention to make friends with all of you. Who knows if we may be able to help one another in the trial?"

    Then he turned to look at Feng Minyue with the most charming smile that he could muster, "Maiden, may I have your name? We seem to be from the same celestial fraternity." He had identified Feng Minyue''s clothing to be from the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan was frowning now; someone is trying to snatch away his Maiden Feng!

    Xiang Li saw his expressions and she was raising her fists, "Kill him!!! He wants our harem!!!"

    Ji Yuan''s jaws almost dropped.

    "When did you be so violent? Seriously Xiang Li, we need to talk one to one. You are getting from worse to worse."

    But Xiang Li continued to giggle while ignoring Ji Yuan.

    She was actually trying to show Fairy Anyang that she was indignant as well.

    Fairy Anyang smiled weakly, "He doesn''t seem to be listening to you at all."

    "Of course not." Xiang Li giggled. "I''m used to it."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Saint Tie Wangming actually knows most of the high level cultivators in the Nine Celestial Fraternity. But like the dozen of cultivators that are all from the Nine Celestial Fraternity here, they had never met such a heavenly beauty like Feng Minyue in the Nine Celestial Fraternity before.

    They were all actually thinking; she may not be a saintess but a low level golden celestial¡­

    Saint Tie Wangming was actually thinking; since we are all from the Nine Celestial Fraternity, it is time for me to get to know this maiden. After all, we are going to meet again very soon after this trial.

    He was actually thinking of banging her because he had a powerful beefy body that many maidens would fall in love with him.

    All of a sudden Feng Minyue had shed her sleeves and immediately her fingers be five sword fingers as she sent Saint Tie Wangming to fly off dozens of steps behind!

    Saint Tie Wangming and many of the cultivators were startled by Feng Minyue''s profound strength!

    There was disbelief in Saint Tie Wangming''s eyes because even a great saint could barely cause him to fly off with their fingers'' profound art but this frail looking maiden actually did!

    She was actually a top cultivation expert!

    When her profound strength hits him, he immediately knows that she was a peaked great saintess and that she was actually quite merciful to him as she had withdrawn her profound strength halfway.

    <o>,m There were only just a few handfuls of peaked great saintesses in the Nine Celestial Fraternity but he had actually never heard or seen anyone like her before¡­</o>

    Feng Minyue coolly said with her heavenly voice, "You can go now. I''ve no wish to be friends with anyone."

    Saint Tie Wangming offered his apologies with stammering voice, "I¡­am¡­just trying¡­to¡­make friends¡­"

    The reason why Saint Tie Wangming had never seen Feng Minyue before was because she had long retired in the Nine Celestial Fraternity and had kept an extremely low profile. (The Fluffy Cultivation, The Good-For-Nothing Cultivation).

    But Feng Minyue was definitely renowned in her heydays when she was the top celestial beauty of the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    Many of the cultivators in the vicinity were now immediately cautious of Ji Yuan''s group; it seemed that they could not ignore the rest of his group either. After all, this is the fifth level of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and it is likely that they are all either golden supremacies or golden saints.

    Ji Yuan wasughing secretly when he saw that Feng Minyue had rejected this Saint Tie Wangming in such a manner.

    How dare he even try to hook up with my love interest!

    He resisted the temptation to go up to this Saint Tie Wangming to give him a few kicks in the face. After all he was quite gracious to the losers.

    Fairy Anyang said to Xiang Li, "Before Maiden Minyue rejects that man, did you see that our Master''s fingers seem to have moved slightly as though he wants to beat up this man? Or I am seeing things?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Nay! You sure did! Big Brother''s blood is definitely boiling!"

    As she inhabits Ji Yuan''s soul sea, she could see that his inner cultivation sea was boiling just now and he was preparing to muster his profound energies at short notice.

 Chapter 322 The Chauvinist Cultivators (3)

    Bai Qianfeng was now alone with Shui Xisi in a quiet ce.

    Shui Xisi smiled as she looked at Bai Qianfeng curiously, "Why do you want to talk to me alone? Are you sharing with me some of Ji Yuan''s dark secrets?"

    Bai Qianfeng turned to her to say coldly, "You may not know who I am but I know who you are. You didn''t tell Ji Yuan, am I right?"

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "Of course I did tell Ji Yuan. I am the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce. But didn''t you already know about this?"

    There was a sudden coldness in Bai Qianfeng''s golden eyes before she said. "Between us, we can drop the pretense. You''re the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice, do you need me to tell you this?"

    Shui Xisi was startled as she took a step back in rm, "How did you know about this?"

    "That is because I''m not an ordinary cultivator." Bai Qianfeng answered her. "My immortal title is the Abyssal Null Goddess and yes, I am a Citadel Lord and an enemy to the Pangu Immortals."

    She said mncholy, "I''ve escaped to the Celestial Realm after I was badly wounded by the Great Goddess Alice. I presume that you''re the daughter of my greatest enemy, am I right?"

    Shui Xisi was startled, "But you don''t have any deste aura around you¡­"

    "An ident happens to me and my deste force had be the righteous force." Bai Qianfeng interrupted coldly as she brandished her celestial sword.

    Shui Xisi was rmed as she quickly shed out her immortal sword. With another swing, her immortal sword had be a saint-step divine sword!

    Against an immortal, Shui Xisi was forced to unseal the true strength of her divine sword!

    "Just as I''ve though. Your divine sword is truly the divine sword of the Great Goddess Alice." Bai Qianfeng stared at the saint-step divine sword that was like a brilliant re in front of her.

    Shui Xisi asked weakly, "Do we have to fight?"

    "What do you think?" Bai Qianfeng asked her.

    Shui Xisi sighed, "I will surely defend myself. I''m not as weak as you think I am. My Sister Feifei (Jiajia) is way stronger than me. She will take vengeance for me."

    "So you are weaker than your sister and that is why the Great Goddess Alice has given you her divine sword instead of your sister." Bai Qianfeng said slowly. "The divine sword of the Great Goddess Alice is useless in your hands. It should be given to your sister instead. Because I can promise you that I can still kick your ass even in my weaken cultivation state."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Heh!" Shui Xisi protested weakly, "I am promise you that I can put up a good fight. I can even force you to suffer a bacsh from drawing upon your superior cultivation strength in the Celestial Realm."

    "Hmph!" Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly as she turned her back.

    "What?" Shui Xisi frowned immediately. "Are you looking down on me by turning your back against me? Are you giving me a couple of free strokes because I''m weaker than you? You will surely regret it if you do and never say I didn''t warn you at all."

    Bai Qianfeng looked up at the hundreds of floating inds in the heavens. "I''ve met your Sister Feifei. She did not expose me even though she had already suspected who I am. In fact, just before I''ve entered the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, we have a little chat."

    Shui Xisi was startled, "My Sister Feifei knows about you?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Your Sister Feifei prefers that I call her Jiajia instead. She asks me to take care of you inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth should I encounter you inside."

    "Oh? My Sister Feifei says that to you?" Shui Xisi was startled further.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "She says that you like Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Rubbish!" Shui Xisi interrupted with a chuckle. "How is it possible for me to like that badass rascal¡­"But all of a sudden she was flushing when she had suddenly recalled her lovemaking session with Ji Yuan in the valley that was known by everyone.

    "My feud is with the Great Goddess Alice alone." Bai Qianfeng said. "So I won''t involve you in this or your sister. I am not a petty goddess."

    Shui Xisiughed all of a sudden, "Why don''t you say so earlier? Do you know that I''ve just got a bad fright from you. Go find my mother consort then. This is none of my business."

    "I am going to kill your mother consort." Bai Qianfeng said matter-of-fact. "You''re not anxious for your mother consort?"

    Shui Xisiughed as she swayed to and fro. "Just go ahead. She is a Great Goddess now while you are merely a goddess. It is going to be hard for you to even attempt it or else you won''t be wounded by her. I''m actually more worried for you than her. You should be the one that is running away from her instead."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng wasughing softly, "I''m merely an initial ninth realm immortal while she is a peaked ninth realm immortal. Indeed, I am not her match."

    Then her voice turned soft as she said gently, "For the rest of my life, I just want to be with Ji Yuan."

    Shui Xisiughed softly too, "Heh! Why is that we seem to share the same goal as well?"

    All of a sudden both maidens wereughing jovially.

    Shui Xisi had suddenly realized why Bai Qianfeng was sharing her background with her; it was because she wanted to tell her that they are friends now.

    Suddenly there were several loud explosions and shockwaves that hade from the trial tform.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were rmed as they said at the same time, "Oh no!"

    Immediately they were all heading to the trial tform in a hurry.

    When they had reached the trial tform, the entire ce was in a mess and there were more than a hundred cultivators moaning on the ground!

    Ji Yuan and the rest of his party were fighting more than a hundred cultivators at the same time.

    There were still more than three hundred cultivators that were still watching quietly along the fence, waiting like vultures to pick up the leftovers.

    Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were both rmed as they quickly joined into the battle fray. "What is happening around here?"

    Ji Yuan was fighting an exceptional strong cultivator who was throwing him one profound spear after another like a mighty thunderbolt that was exploding mightily into Ji Yuan and he had wounds all over his body.

    Even a saint''s regeneration had a limit in the face of so many relentless cultivators who were hurling their profound energies onto him.

    As a matter of fact, there were more than a dozen peaked great saints among the hundred cultivators as well!

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly when he saw them, "It is a terrible long story¡­I sure need some help from your puny lizard and ugly bird now..."

    However Bai Qianfeng had already released her two spirit pets even before Ji Yuan had finished exining the situation.

    "Who dares to attack my lord?!" Bai Qianfeng shouted unhappily as sheunched herself into the midst of several cultivators, easily taking them apart with her sword.

    After Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had left for a while, there were several cultivators that were already thinking of attacking Ji Yuan to seize his saintly sword.

    These cultivators were mainly the unorthodox and heretic cultivators that would not hesitate to attack the weak and had no martial honor.

    When they saw that Bai Qianfeng had left Ji Yuan''s party for a while, they decided to attack at the same time.

    Without the presence of the two seventh rank profound beasts, it seemed easier.

    Moreover several of the attackers all have powerful profound arts and are all battle-hardened fighters.

    But when they had attacked Ji Yuan, they soon found out that Ji Yuan seemed to be a hard nut to crack.

    Seeing that the maidens in Ji Yuan''s party seemed to be watching, more and more cultivators began to join into the battle.

    No one wanted to be left behind when the prize was a saintly sword, a reward that exceeded any of the trial reward!

    When Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had suddenly realized things were getting out of hand, they were already surrounded by more than two hundred powerful cultivators!

    By the time Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had returned, more than a hundred cultivators were already moaning loudly on the ground.<sub> </sub>

    Although it was halved the number of cultivators at the peak but these cultivators were all exceptional cultivators.

    Moreover with so many cultivators using their profound arts at the same time, Ji Yuan and his maidens were all hard pressed.

    But the attackers were also quite startled because three of the maidens turned out to be great saintess with Yu Jingjing as the only exception but still, she was also a saintess.

    Feng Minyue was a peaked great saintess while Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had suddenly disyed their golden core auras which startled their attackers.

    But with so many attackers around, even Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were praying for Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi to return quickly; they sure need the help of the two peaked great saintesses.

    Luckily, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had returned quickly since they did not exactly go too far away; it was just that these expert cultivators were all fighting so fast and furious that every minute counts.

    Ji Yuan was furious as he parried the profound spear attack; his attacker was forming his profound spear with his profound energies and was hurling at him from afar, making use of every opportunity that he could to hurt him.

    As Ji Yuan was fighting more than a dozen cultivators at the same time, he could not disengage fast enough to handle the spear hurling cultivator.

    His attackers were startled that Ji Yuan was such a formidable fighter that had felled dozens of them.

    They were even startled when Ji Yuan had shed out one more divine sword which was an immortal sword and that there was even a divine halo on it as well!

    This Ji Yuan had actually had a double halo on his saintly sword and a single divine halo on his immortal sword.

    p This was totally unheard of in the entire Celestial Realm!</anda>

    "He has an immortal sword as well?!"

    "He is too rich!"

    "What? He also has a sword spirit as well?"

    But taking out his immortal sword had only caused more cultivators to join into the battle. This time there were even more cultivators that were from the orthodox celestial ns as they could not resist the temptation anymore.

    All the attackers had only one objective in their heads; Kill Ji Yuan, seize all his divine swords and plunder him clean!

    Ji Yuan broke into cold sweat even with Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and two seventh rank profound beasts joining on their side; it was because their attackers were too overwhelming and he had injuries all over his body now.

    When he saw that many of the cultivators were all looking lecherous at his beloveds, his golden eyes turned green.

    This time he had really met with some serious troubles and many of his opponents had sword spirits and powerful spirit entities as well.

    "You want to kill me? Fine! Then I shall kill you all!"

    Ji Yuan was so enraged that he started to use his life force energies as he disyed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    His Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was actually a supreme sword art andbining it with life force energies, he could even raise his profound power further.

    Dozens of profound arts were instantly dissipated by Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and quite a number of cultivators were overwhelmed by it.

    "What the¡­"

    "He still has a hidden trump card?!"

    "What is that?"

    "What the heck?! He actually has¡­"

    All of a sudden all the cultivators could see that there was another sword spirit on Ji Yuan''s left forehand and were stunned; No one has ever got two sword spirits before...

    Ji Yuan was so enraged that his second sword spirit was fully awakened.

    Usually sword spirit could only appear on a cultivator''s forehead and could be moved to the forehand if the cultivator was able to reach a high level of daoprehension in it.

    But as Ji Yuan was bent on killing his attackers, he wanted a more offensive sword spirit rather than having a defensive sword spirit on his forehead.

    And since he was ambidextrous anyway, the second sword spirit smoothly moved to his left forehand.

    Ji Yuan could feel that his profound strength seemed to have doubled.

    Two sword spirits and two godly divine swords at the same time!

    Once again he had used his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light with his life force energies as he seemed to shout silently; No one, ever cuckoo me!

    Dozens of cultivators immediately mustered all their profound strength to use all their trump cards immediately and without reserve anymore; it was because the attackers that were surrounding Ji Yuan were all pulverized and they could all sense that if they do notbine all their profound arts then they too would be pulverized.

    "Everyone train your profound arts on him! We can ovee him¡­"

    But Ji Yuan''s profound art was too overwhelming and many of the cultivators were pulverized instantly.

    But there were many cultivators who were fleeing from Ji Yuan''s profound art and were thinking; a super profound art is only powerful if it can hit. All we need to do is to evade it and he will only waste his profound strength in vain.

    One of the cultivators was the cultivator with the spear profound art that was attacking Ji Yuan nonstop earlier.

    He was a cunning cultivator and also a top cultivator. When Ji Yuan had exhausted his profound strength then he would make his final move.

    Therefore he smiled wryly as he quickly evaded out of the way since there were many scapegoats around.

    But all of a sudden his jaws dropped when he realized that the winged beam of light in the shape of a coiling dragon was flying toward him!

    As he fled away with the coiling dragon chasing after him, dozens more cultivators were killed instantly because they totally had no idea which direction to evade at all!

    The coiling dragon seemed to tunnel and fly everywhere because it was chasing after a cultivator that was evading everywhere, resulting in the deaths of the many cultivators that could have evaded it.

    The cunning cultivator with the spear profound art could not believe that the coiling light could have such asting effect and he continued to evade with all his remaining strength.

    All of a sudden he was horrified that there was yet another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light that had exploded out from Ji Yuan and it was also targeted at him!

    "Where did all his profound strengthes from?!"

    "Why is he only targeting me??!!"

    With two super profound art chasing after him, he soon exhausted his profound strength and was instantly pulverized but not before he had identally helped Ji Yuan to take away dozens of cultivators that were in his path.

    With another sword spirit, Ji Yuan thought that he may be able to use another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light at the same time and it really works!

    When all the debris had cleared, dozens of cultivators had all fled away from the trial while three hundred over cultivators were all left in stunned silence.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue were all gasping; it was because Ji Yuan really had another sword spirit and he really did not lie to them¡­

    Feng Minyue had a look of guilt as she felt her knees growing weak, "I didn''t believe him back then¡­"

    Just as most of the cultivators were thinking that this Ji Yuan may copse anytime soon because he had sacrificed his life force energies and were all thinking that this may be another good opportunity to attack again, they were quite startled to see him shouting angrily. "Any more? All of youe after me!"

    Ji Yuan was still looking quite spirited and he did not look the least bit exhausted as he continued to shout angrily, "Come,e. All of you!"

    Many of the cultivators were quietly making their exits because they did not want to be in the same trial with such a dangerous maniac cultivator.

    Who knows if he may bear grudges against all of them and it is better to live to fight for another day.

 Chapter 323 The Bogus Great Celestial Teacher Ji Yuan

    There were many among the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity that had exited the trial tform.

    The main reason why no one had recognized that they were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity was because they had intentionally donned on the robes of the other celestial fraternities that they had killed.

    Many of them only had a single purpose and that was to kill Ji Yuan.

    And many were from the reputable orthodox celestial ns and they did not want anyone to know who they really were.

    The cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce were naturally among them.

    The attacks on Ji Yuan partially were incited by them.

    "This Ji Yuan is too formidable!"

    "Even our leaders are all killed by him¡­"

    "We are lucky to be made out of there alive¡­"

    "When did he be so strong?!"

    "I can''t believe that with so many of us fighting together, we can''t even take away his life¡­"

    "He looked extremely alerted and spirited¡­today his form is in a tip-top condition¡­we have picked the wrong day to fight with him¡­"

    They did not know that when Ji Yuan is aroused with jealousies, he would be extremely alerted and have plenty of fighting spirit. This is especially so when he was being fuelled by his Undying Fighting Spirit.

    Instead of getting more tired as time goes by, Ji Yuan will only get more spirited if his green rivals are still around.

    -

    -

    -

    Right now Ji Yuan was being surrounded by hundreds of cultivators who were all greeting him with gifts.

    "Great Celestial Ji Yuan, this is just a token of my appreciation¡­"

    "Please take care of me when we are in the trial¡­"

    "These offenders against you should die, haha¡­"

    "We are innocents¡­"

    "You''re our hero¡­"

    "You''re the greatest cultivation hero¡­"

    Ji Yuan was now being surrounded by dozens of maidens who were treating him like their idol and hero-worshipping cultivators.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all seeing green now when they saw so many maidens were all surrounding Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue cursed softly, "These cultivators are all so shameless!"

    "They''ve all shitted in their pants after Ji Yuan turned crazy earlier." Little Princess muttered.

    Ling Feiyue whispered quietly, "Some of the dead may be from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. There are at least five that I''ve recognized."

    She had travelled extensively in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and had often traveled incognito. Therefore she had recognized some of the lesser known cultivators.

    Shui Xisi was startled, "But we didn''t see any one from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Why should they disguise themselves as from the other celestial fraternity?"

    "If I am not wrong, they are here to get Ji Yuan." Ling Feiyue.

    "Isn''t Ji Yuan a hero in the Deste Celestial Fraternity?" Yu Jingjing asked curiously. "Then are they all from the unorthodox side?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Some of them are actually from the orthodox side! They are orthodox cultivators."

    Little Princess smiled at Yu Jingjing, "A hero may not necessary be popr in the face of a conflicting interest."

    Shui Xisi muttered, "I just don''t understand this. How in the Three Known Realms did he get two sword spirits? This is impossible!"

    Bai Qianfeng also had a perplexed look, "Not only that, he had also divine harmonized with his other divine sword as well."

    Little Princess frowned, "It is not surprising. His other spirit entity is so beautiful and moreover he is so lecherous."

    Feng Minyue quietly said, "He is not lecherous."

    Shui Xisiughed, "Sister Feng, why are you defending Ji Yuan all of a sudden?"

    Feng Minyue panicky exined, "I am not!"

    But none of the other maidens believed her because they could tell that the way she was looking at Ji Yuan was like someone who was in love.

    Feng Minyue quickly said, "Why don''t we go and see what Ji Yuan is saying to them? He is giving a dao lecture now."

    Shui Xisiughed, "Alright, alright. I will like to hear what rubbish he is sprouting from his mouth."

    All the other maidens allughed softly when they had heard Shui Xisi; it was because Ji Yuan was now pretending to be a cultivation guru now when he was not.

    Ji Yuan wasughing weakly because it was now the time for his dao lecture.

    He was thinking; I am dead now¡­

    It was because he knew nothing about the mysteries of the dao.

    He is really not into it even though he is a high level cultivator; his only dao is his sword.

    A cultivator was asking Ji Yuan now, "Great Celestial Ji, how is it possible for you to have two sword spirits?"

    Many of the cultivators were also curiously asking the same. "This is clearly impossible¡­"

    "Either you have one spirit entity or a sword spirit¡­"

    "It is because our soul sea is only able to house one external spirit only, unless it is the spirit manifestation of a profound art and you can have two spirit entities¡­"

    "But never two sword spirits¡­"

    "No one ever has two sword spirits¡­"

    "So how did you manage to aplish this?"

    Ji Yuan was naturally unwilling to tell them how he had obtained the additional sword spirit; because this was a sad remnant from Xiang Li''s past and the second sword spirit was formed from the remnants of Xiang Li''s previous mistress.

    Moreover it was extremely difficult for Ji Yuan to exin the exact circumstances why he had two sword spirits.

    He had done a quick thought on it and he could only guess that his original sword spirit was actually granted by Xiang Li''s soul. And since Xiang Li''s previous mistress was also linked to Xiang Li in the past, she must have merged with his original sword spirit.

    But this was only his guess.

    Heughed, "Actually, I am just  a little more hardworking than any one of you, that''s all. Whether I am sleeping or awake, I am always constantly cultivating. Even though I am talking to all of you now but I am still cultivating."

    Everyone was gasping, "How is it possible?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan quickly cooked up an excuse, "That is because I''ve attained the divine state of the parallel mind. One part of my soul is constantly cultivating."

    "This parallel mind divine state sounds like an immortal profound art¡­"

    "I didn''t know something like this ever exists¡­"

    "So if we cultivate all the time then we can have two sword spirits?"

    "Sword spirits are even rarer than having a spirit entity. Not everyone will have the opportunity to cultivate their soul sea into a sword spirit¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he said gently, "Fairy Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang! Show yourself up!"

    The minute that Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang showed themselves up, they were smiling to everyone and immediately the jaws of most of the cultivators dropped to the ground in great disbelief; they were actually seeing two sentient spirit entities!

    Xiang Li giggled, "Hello everyone¡­I am Xiang Li!"

    "Fairy Anyang greets everyone."

    Moreover these two sentient spirit entities were enough to cause the lusts of the male cultivators to reach a new height as well!

    "This¡­"

    "He actually has two sentient spirits?!"

    "He has two spirit entities and two sword spirits, moreover his spirit entities are sentient spirits¡­"

    "This is¡­impossible¡­"

    "And he also have two superior divine swords¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Seeing is believing. As long as you cultivate like me, it is not impossible. Therefore don''t be misled by generations of false beliefs and you will reach a higher state of divinity in your dao."

    "Great Celestial Ji Yuan, please tell us what to do?"

    "Please¡­"

    "Great Celestial Teacher Ji Yuan, please impart your teaching to us and guide us please¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. Never stop with your cultivation. Although you may be rich and can reach the higher realm cultivation but don''t stop cultivating. The poorer cultivators have to cultivate more than you but they are also building a solid foundation. So, don''t fall into the deep abyss of luxuries and focus on your cultivation."

    He further pointed out, "Did you cultivate day and night like I do? Did you cultivate like the poor cultivators or did you depend heavily upon your rich spiritual mountains?"

    "Then I''m afraid that your dao will not advance at all! Because you didn''t spend as much time cultivating as the poor cultivators!"

    "It isn''t how high your cultivation realm is. It is how much time that you''ve been cultivating. Always cultivate ten times as long as the poorest cultivator and you can be like me!"

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were both muttering softly when they had heard Ji Yuan, "Not everyone is as poor as you...you''re just brainwashing everyone..."

    A cultivator took the courage to say, "But you have a harem¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted as he pointed to his party, "They are merely my followers and disciples! Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes as she whispered to Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng, "We are his disciples?!"

    "This time he is truly dead." Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly.

    "His ego is inting too much. He is going to regret the day that he is born now." Little Princess frowned.

    "Let me whip him for everyone. " Shui Xisi said unhappily.

    Ling Feiyue hummed bitterly, "Ji Yuan is too shameless. Some of you may not know this; do you know that he can be so shameless as to call Sister Ye Chengxi his master and he can do it with a straight face thinking that she can''t recognize him. And do you know that she is actually his core prot¨¦g¨¦!"

    Feng Minyue tried to reason with them, "Ji Yuan won''t retaliate against all of you. Maybe he is merely trying to find an excuse to cover himself in front of these cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue smiled coldly, "Senior Feng, this is our family matter."

    Then she giggled softly, "Or are you interested to be Ji Yuan''s consort as well?"

    There was a flush on Feng Minyue''s countenance, "Nonsense. We are merely friends."

    Even Yu Jingjing was also flushing shyly as she lowered her head but shecked the courage to say anything.

    Ling Feiyue turned to Shui Xisi with a smile, "Why are you teaching Ji Yuan a lesson?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Stop teasing me. You all already know the reason already."

    It was pointless to hide her affair with Ji Yuan anymore since everyone had overheard her lovemaking session with Ji Yuan in the valley.

    But she quickly said as she tried to distract everyone, "We have got more than thirty divine swords from the dead cultivators. So how are we going to distribute these divine swords and other profound treasures?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "We are definitely not going to leave Ji Yuan a share. I suggest that we let him be a poor cultivator forever."

    "I agree!" Bai Qianfeng could not resist a chuckle. "Did you see how un-gentleman he is earlier when he ordered us to pick up all the loot just because he is the ''hero''."

    "And he has been showing off in front of all these maidens from start till now." Little Princess pointed out.

    Shui Xisiughed, "And did you see his weird expressions when we have all unveiled ourselves earlier?"

    All the maidens wereughing jovially when they had recalled Ji Yuan trying to show off his manly vibes in front of the others.

    Ji Yuan had almost run out of things to say when all of a sudden the trial tform began to rumble nonstop as a shimmering grey portal began to make its appearance from the ground.

    "What is this?"

    "The trial portal has finally been opened?!"

    "This is the moment that we all have been waiting for¡­"

    The voice of the trial spirit began to resonate throughout the vicinity of the trial. "Wee to the Trial of the Transmigration. Step inside if you have the courage."

    Many of the cultivators were looking at Ji Yuan as they said at the same time, "Great Celestial Teacher Ji Yuan is the most heroic of all of us here. We should let him enter the trial first."

    "Yes, let Great Celestial Teacher enter the portal first¡­"

    "I agree as well!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why is it that I feel that they are only using me as a guinea pig?

    While Ji Yuan was cursing the cultivators, Bai Qianfeng was gasping suddenly, "This trial¡­"

    "What is it?" The other maidens were asking her curiously.

    "This trial spirit here is quite a powerful trial spirit. Not quite the level of the S Rank Trial but is almost on par." Bai Qianfeng answered them quietly.

 Chapter 324 The Trial Of The Transmigration (1)

    "Please excuse me for a while. I''ve got some farewells to say to my disciples." Ji Yuan said to everyone as he walked toward his own party.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all excited to see Ji Yuan back to their side.

    All thoughts of ''punishing'' Ji Yuan vanished instantly away from their minds as they greeted him with heartwarming smiles.

    "Finally you''re back!"

    "Wee back!"

    "You did very well earlier."

    "Sorry that we didn''t believe you when you''ve told us that you''ve two sword spirits¡­"

    "This is clearly impossible to have two sword spirits. What tricks did you use? Did you seduce the trial spirit or something?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha. I''ve almost shitted in my pant earlier."

    "This is so crude and vulgar." Ling Feiyue frowned.

    "Actually, I didn''t shit for centuries already. Haha." Ji Yuanughed. It was true. When the cultivators reached the fifth realm level after oveing their first life and death tribtion, they will have attained a golden body and will no longer have a need to eat or drink.

    But he soon said solemnly, "Luckily, my sword is fast enough."

    It was the truth;

    With hundreds of cultivators attacking at the same time, most of them could not use their profound arts with precision or else Ji Yuan would be dead in no time.

    But for Ji Yuan it was a totally different thing; he did not need to worry about hitting the wrong targets because they were all his targets.

    The only thing that kept Ji Yuan alive was because he had too many attackers and his sword was really fast enough to fend off so many cultivators at the same time.

    Many of his attackers were quite startled that Ji Yuan was fighting like a master swordsman and they were all struggling under his strong melee blows.

    What they did not know is that Ji Yuan is actually a Sword Saint so he is naturally a master swordsman. Fighting against so many swords at the same time is actually no stranger to him and he had turned his disadvantage to his advantage.

    In fact, his sword strength was so powerful that he was constantly sending his opponents to fly off even if they had sessfully parried with their weapons; after all, the profound might of his saintly sword coupled with Ji Yuan''s inherent sword strength was too much for many of the cultivators.

    Ji Yuanughed as he turned Sisi to say, "I feel that I''m now stronger than Jiajia now. Haha."

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes before she chuckled, "Maybe. Why don''t you try?"

    But she had put her fingers crossed behind her back; Her Sister Feifei (Jiajia) is actually a top cultivator in the Celestial Realm, not just the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I feel a little pitiful for Jiajia when we have a chance to duel the next time. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Me too¡­"

    She added silently, "For you."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Well, I''m not going to bash up Jiajia for real. How could I bear to do so? Haha. Next time when we''ve met again, I will be the romantic cultivator in her heart and I''ll melt her heart."

    All the maidens rolled their eyes when they heard that Ji Yuan had just self-dered that he is a romantic cultivator.

    Then the golden eyes of Ji Yuan began to soften as he said quietly, "I can help to tank her burden. She thinks that she can solve all her problems alone without help. She is wrong. I can help. I am really very strong now."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    My Sister Feifei indeed has a heavy responsibility. It is because she has inherited the mantle of protecting the Celestial Realm¡­

    Ji Yuan was recalling Sisi''s immortal sword art when she had first used it for the very first time against him; he had remembered seeing only seven streaking burst of ster light and that the profound power that had suddenly appeared was so overwhelming that he thought that he may not survive it.

    And Jiajia is supposedly to be stronger than even Sisi.

    So he is actually unsure if he is actually stronger than Jiajia now.

    Just exactly what is the background of these two sisters? And why are they in two different celestial ns?

    Most importantly, how did theye to have their immortal profound arts?

    He had thought that Jiajia having a celestial sword is already quite startling enough but Sisi is even more startling; she has an immortal sword.

    Ji Yuan did not know that Sisi actually has a saint-step divine sword but she has temporary sealed the profound power of her divine sword to a lower grade.

    All the other maidens were quite startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly be very serious and they could see that Ji Yuan''s feeling toward Jiajia was actually deep. It was just that he had been trying to hide it.

    "My lord," Bai Qianfeng said. "I''ve sense that a saint level immortal spirit in this trial. We ought to be careful for this trial. Or we may even want to consider skipping it."

    Immortal spirits also have their own hierarchy and are ranked mortal, earth, heaven, celestial and saint. Saint level immortal spirits are the rarest and the most powerful. Xiang Li naturally is above them all.

    Immortal spirits are the same as spirit entities. It is just that the immortals call them as immortal spirits while the celestials call them as spirit entities.

    Ji Yuan said slowly, "We''ve failed one trial already. There are no easy trials for the fifth trials and above so we only have to take a gambit on this. I''m going in. But¡­"

    After a short hesitation, he smiled bitterly. "You don''t have to follow me inside. I''ve a mission on my back that I''ve to carry through."

    "Forget the mission." Ling Feiyue looked at Ji Yuan with her mncholy golden eyes. "We all need you to be alive than dead. I can''t afford to lose you."

    Ji Yuan''s heart was warmed heartily when he had heard his Feiyue''s innermost sentiment but he quickly shook his head. "It is not just my mission. I''ve suddenly realized that there is a terrible foe that I''ve to kill in this trial."

    "Who?" All the maidens asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "The Death God Mingwang. He is here in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I need to stop him and our fight is inevitable sooner orter."

    The other maidens had all turned solemn immediately.

    Bai Qianfeng had actually secretly told the other maidens that day, "Actually our lord did not lie to us. I''ve examined the vicinity with my divine sense and found remnants of a fierce fight. The powerful deste profound energies are really that of an immortal and the Death God Mingwang is a known deste god in the Deste Realm. He is really a most dangerous foe."<sub> </sub>

    Although Bai Qianfeng had promised Ji Yuan that she would not tell the others but she did nevertheless.

    After hearing from Bai Qianfeng, all the maidens then decided to feign ignorance to Ji Yuan lest they affected him with their own fears.

    Actually Ji Yuan knew that Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were all really close. It was impossible for them not to know since he had caught them gossiping about him on a good number of asions.

    But today, he decided to be frank with his feelings.

    Because time is running out now and he has to reach the sixth level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth before the six months are up.

    Among the maidens here, only Yu Jingjing was clueless who the Death God Mingwang was. But nevertheless she could tell that this Death God Mingwang must be a most dangerous foe because she could see that the eyes of everyone were grim.

    And she was further startled that Ji Yuan is going to fight an immortal cultivator.

    She began to mutter almost incoherently, "What is an immortal cultivator doing in the Celestial Realm? This is not possible, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan said, "We don''t know the details of this trial until we enter inside. So far, we''ve only failed one trial and that is not bad already. I am going in."

    Feng Minyue smiled, "I am going in as well. Most of the trials are actually solo trials at the upper levels. It is only at the lower levels that there are a lot more of the group trials. I am not assuming otherwise. To me, this is also my own personal trial."

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "Sister Feng has said all that I want to say. I am going in as well."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were all saying firmly, "We are going in as well."

    Seeing that it was pointless to persuade them otherwise and that the other cultivators were all waiting for Ji Yuan to enter into the shimmering trial first, Ji Yuan nodded gently before he said to them. "Don''t die inside! Or I won''t forgive you!"

    "We won''t forgive you if you were to die inside as well." Ling Feiyue smiled.

    "Yes! We won''t forgive you if you were to die!" All the other maidens echoed together.

    Ji Yuanughed heartily before he marched into the shimmering trial portal.

    And behind him were the maidens of his heart.

    They were all cultivators and they were here for their trials so Ji Yuan had to respect their decision as a cultivator.

    Ji Yuan thought of all his good friends that had perished during their lives as cultivators, leaving only Guo Taiming as his only best friend in the Five Heavens Peaks that had survived.

    But he was soon frowning; why didn''t he die? He is like a cockroach.

    A bright light greeted him as he emerged out from the portal to the other side.

    He waited for a while before heaving a soft sigh as he continued into the tunnel; this was a solo trial and not a group trial.

    Or is it?

    He continued for a while until he reached arge cavern and was quite startled to see a giant blue blob in front of him; it was as twice his height as a matter of fact.

    To his amazement, two eyes and a mouth began to form from the giant blue blob as it greeted him, "Wee to the Trial of the Transmigration. I call this the Wicked Trial."

    "You''re a talking blob?!" Ji Yuan stared with great disbelief.

    Even Xiang Li was startled, "A talking slime?!"

    Fairy Anyang appraised the giant blue blob with interest before she whispered to Xiang Li, "This immortal spirit is a powerful one. You''ve better wish your master good luck."

    The giant blue blob answered delightfully in a neutral voice childlike voice, giving no hint of its gender. "Indeed I am! And I am the Master of the Trial."

    "So what is this trial all about?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The giant blue blobughed jovially. "You are to aid the mortals from the lower mortal realm in their transmigration."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested with disbelief, "You''ve got to be kidding me, am I right? Do you think that I am a cultivation god?! How the heck do you think I am able to help the mortals? I am in the middle of the trial here."

    "This will be your trial to do so." The giant blue blob winked at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did the giant blue blob just give him a wink that caused all his hairs to stand up?

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Tell me the details of this trial then."

    How the heck is he going to help the mortals to transmigrate when he is born in the Celestial Realm and he has never transmigrated before?!

    The giant blue blob giggled jovially, "Don''t worry. You won''t die in this trial."

    Ji Yuan''s countenance immediately lit up. "Haha! Why didn''t you say so earlier?"

    A deathless trial means that he did not need to worry for his loved ones.

    He immediately patted his chest, "I am excited for this trial already. Haha!"

    "You won''t die but the transmigrators will die because of you." The giant blue blob grinned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes; is this trial a trap or what?! He knew that there must be a catch somewhere¡­

    Wait a minute. Did this slime ball call this trial a ''Wicked Trial''?

    Crap...

 Chapter 325 The Trial Of The Transmigration (2)

    It is said that the way down to the Mortal Realm has been sealed forever ever since the reincarnated Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Fantian have ascended to the Immortal Realm, fulfilling their destinies as the gods of the immortals.

    Ji Yuan was now staring nking at the five thousands mortals that had gathered in front of him and everyone was looking extremely confused.

    These five thousand mortals all wearing identical robes, men and women had alle from the many different Mortal Realms and all had different backgrounds.

    Many of them were excited to see that they were all young again and in their most beautiful prime;

    "What is going on here? Aren''t I an old man?"

    "I am a cripple¡­was¡­"

    "I''ve regained my beautiful looks? Then am I a virgin again?"

    "I thought that I was killed by a truck?"

    "My ssroom exploded¡­"

    "I''ve thought that I was dead?"

    "I''ve got transmigrated into an isekai world?"

    "I''ve jumped down to the train track¡­"

    "Is this heaven?"

    "Did my evesting life profound pill works?"

    "Where am I?"

    "What is this ce?"

    "Just who are all of you?"

    "And the most important thing of all, who is that beautiful cultivator that is staring down at us?"

    This beautiful cultivator was of course Ji Yuan except that he was now in an ethereal form like a spirit.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; he is now the trial spirit in charge of leading these ''new'' cultivators to ascend to the Celestial Realm as a first realm cultivator in the Celestial Realm.

    This was his mission.

    And he could only pass this trial if there is at least one mortal that could be a cultivator and he cannot aid them directly.

    Not that he could since he had no real physical form now and was exactly like Xiang Li.

    In fact he felt a little funny when he could now see Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang all the time now and they were like two subus trying to devour his dao heart and to send him into the great abyss of temptation.

    Luckily for him, their beautiful viewings were only restricted to him and not the mortal cultivators.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at everyone, "You must be really confused where you really are. Let me tell you that you are in the middle of a transmigration dream."

    I am equally confused but I''m just repeating what the blue blob had said to me so don''t me me if I tell you the wrong stuff¡­

    He forced through a smile, "Haha. This is your second chance on life. Some of you may be in your dreams when you are experiencing this, some of you may have transited here when you''ve died¡­"

    A maiden sobbed, "I''ve tripped on a soap while stepping out of my bathroom and I was propelled out of the window. I''ve died a most embarrassing naked death¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "How do you die isn''t important anymore." Ji Yuan interrupted with a frown. "But if you die here then you will surely die for real."

    "What do you mean?"

    "We are actually not dead?"

    "Is this a dream?"

    "I''ve told you we are in an isekai world yah. We''re all dressed funny and so is he¡­"

    Many of the mortal cultivators were now addressing Ji Yuan, "May we know who you are?"

    "Hold, hold!" Ji Yuan shouted as he raised his hands to calm everyone down.

    "Alright. I should have introduced myself first." He began to smile bitterly.

    But he was soon grinning, "I am the Cultivation God of this world. You may address me as the Great God Ji Yuan. Haha."

    "Great God Ji Yuan! Please tell us what to do!"

    "Yes, we don''t want to die!"

    "I want to stay young forever¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Now I''ve got your attention."

    Then he pointed at a mountain peak in front of them. "On that mountain peak is a tform. All you''ve to do is to reach that tform and you can transmigrate into the Celestial Realm as a celestial cultivator."

    "Celestial cultivator?! What is that?"

    "Cultivators are practitioners of the dao. You can call it the Way of the Heavens or just the Way¡­"

    "We can be immortal?"

    "We''ve stuck gold!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; most of these mortal cultivators were only between the first to the second realm cultivators, depending on their mortal experiences and their mortal tribtions.

    All these information was actually given to him by the blue blob before he had arrived at the scene.

    He was thinking; these mortal cultivators are so lucky. They have such an easy trial and they can be celestial cultivators. Well, good luck to them.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan grinned, "It is about three to six hours, depending on the obstacles¡­"

    "Hey, you there." A mortal cultivator was shouting aloud now. "It looks more like three to six days. Are you kidding us?"

    Many of the mortal cultivators were nowughing out loud.

    "Be respectful!" Some of the other mortal cultivators were urging the others.

    "He is just a trial spirit. We are the heroes and the main MCs!"

    "Yes, we are all going to be gods in the new world¡­"

    But it was obvious that the mortal cultivators were now divided into two main camps, the respectful and the arrogant camp.

    Ji Yuan disyed a more forgiving look even though he was clearly frowning; I forget that that is my speed. For them, they may require many more days.

    I have better give them the details of this trial and then I can shake my leg.

    So heughed, "There are deste monsters in this vicinity but there is nothing to be anxious about it. The trial restricts these deste monsters to the fourth rank only. I will rmend that you stay out of trouble because all of you are just first or second realm cultivators. As a rule, third and fourth rank deste monsters are above your league and you should not engage it one to one¡­"

    "But we have several thousands here. Hehe¡­"

    "What is this first or second realm cultivator thing?"

    "Yes, what is it? We have a system here?"

    "Is the deste monsters scary?"

    "I am just a civilian where I''vee from¡­"

    "I am a swordsman but I''ve no weapons now¡­"

    "I am from the mortal celestial n so I know what he is talking about¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "First realm cultivators are called Practitioners. They are the Practitioners of the Way and the celestials here cultivate at this realm. As for the second realm, we call them the Master Practitioners. Naturally they are stronger than the first realm cultivators and have stronger profound strength. As for the third realm cultivators, they are the Enlighten Celestial. At this cultivation realm level, your aging will slow down. As for the fourth realm cultivation level, it is the Immortal Celestial level and you won''t age anymore at this point. In the future, you will have a chance to reach the fourth realm level if you cultivate hard enough."

    Haha. Most of you will probably perish before the fourth realm level anyway so I''m stopping my exnation here.

    Most of the mortal cultivators were all quite excited and the thought that they may gain eternal life strongly motivate them.

    Many were in fact quite eager to start.

    "So we are the bestowed sons and daughters of the heavens to be granted such a chance?"

    "Actually, I don''t know why I am here. I had died while helping a granny to cross the road¡­"

    Ji Yuan was delighted that his ''team'' was quite excited to start so he quickly hastens up his speech, "On your fingers is a spatial ring. Inside you will find your weapons. All you need to do is to will it with your mind and by rubbing it."

    Immediately the five thousand cultivators began to rub their spatial rings and they were all taking out their ''weapons''.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes when he saw their weapons because he could not recognize most of it; the giant blue blob had told him that their weapons will be the ones that they are familiar with in their previous life.

    Only a couple hundreds have a long sword.

    Many have choppers, daggers, bows, spears and lotsa of weird looking weapons.

    These weird looking weapons naturallye from a more futuristic mortal realm.

    Many of these cultivators wereughing out loud;

    "GPMG!"

    "M16!"

    "AK47!"

    "RPG!"

    "We have cheats in this world!"

    Many of the mortal cultivators were also looking at the other mortal cultivators with a weird look; they did not recognize their weapons either.

    Immediately the egos of the futuristic mortal cultivators went up several notches and they were starting to behave like they were the leaders of the group.

    Ji Yuan said to them, "You can be on your way now. If you think you cannot ovee the trial, you can return here. This is the safe point. However I must warn you first; you will die here and this will end your chance. And you may even die in your real life if your heart is weak. Well for those that had already died, it doesn''t matter."

    With that Ji Yuanughed as he retreated to the shade where he decided to drool at Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang until the end of the trial.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, you''re not keeping a watch over them?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Didn''t you hear what the fat blob says? As long as one mortal cultivator is able to reach the tform that is on top of the mountain then I can pass the trial. It is as easy as that. Moreover there are no deste monsters that are above the fourth rank here."

    Then he pointed at the excited mortal cultivators that were below. "Look at their excited faces. I think that morale is very good in a team and their morale looks great!"

    Xiang Li took a look below and indeed, many of the mortal cultivators were allughing as though it was a game.

    "Let''s go hunting!"

    "I am looking for blood now¡­"

    "I''m an experienced hunter in my previous life and I''ve hundreds of trophies¡­"

    "I''m from the animal rights¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed from above as he waved his hand to everyone, "Good luck! Farewell! Haha."

    Xiang Li asked again, "Big Brother, you sure?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course. Even my first realm cultivators from my Orthodox Sword Sect can pass this trial easily. If my useless Yan''Er can also pass, so can they. Moreover there are five thousands of them. Even the higher rank deste monsters will be afraid of such arge group. They can virtuallyplete this trial with their eyes closed."

    "Maybe it is not a Wicked Trial but an Easy Trial. Haha."

 Chapter 326 The Trial Of The Transmigration (3)

    Xiang Li was saying to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, do you think it is really alright for you to hands off from them?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Why not? They''re all cultivators with pride. We shouldn''t tamper too much with them lest it may affect their future cultivation growth."

    "But do you remember that the slimy trial spirit says that they are all failures in the mortal realm?" Xiang Li pointed out.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course they are failures. They can''t ascend to the Celestial Realm. If they can ascend to the Celestial Realm like my Sect Elder Li Ye then they would all be a fifth realm celestial and not some lowly first and second realm cultivators."

    Fairy Anyang suddenly said with a bitter look at both Ji Yuan and Xiang Li, "They look like epic failures in life. I''ve overheard some of them mentioning that they had died in the most unusual way or was a total failure in life. In short, they are losers in the Mortal Realm."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "May I remind you that this is a fifth level difficulty trial and not a first level difficulty trial." Fairy Anyang pointed out further.

    "I didn''t think of this." Ji Yuan was suddenly putting his palm on his face. "Darn, this may not be an ''Easy Trial'' now."

    But he brightened immediately, "But hey, maybe they are a failure in the Mortal Realm but it doesn''t mean that they are a failure now."

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "Master, you''re a little too optimistic. These mortal cultivators will find it difficult to ovee their heart demons in order to be a true cultivator. The Trial Spirit is merely using these failures to test you. You''re the test subject and not them."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now, "Why didn''t you say so earlier."

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "That is because I''m not as smart as you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Well, thank you for your high praises. I really appreciate it¡­"

    But he was soonughing out loud, "Fairy Anyang, I was almost fooled by you. What is so difficult about some second and third rank deste monsters? I can fight these monsters with my eyes closed and moreover there are five thousands of them. I highly doubt that they are foolish enough to challenge a rare fourth rank deste monster. Worsee to worse, they can ovee the fourth rank deste monster with their sheer numbers alone. Haha."

    -

    -

    -

    There were many chattering among the five thousand cultivators as they walked into the forest ahead of them; many of them were busy trying to get to know one another and to form possible alliances.

    However there were also many lone figures as well for many of them were actually Otakus.

    All these mortal cultivators all had a different background and hade from many different mortal realms.

    After walking for a while, a small group consisting of a few dozen began to form from the five thousand mortal cultivators.

    A beefy mortal cultivator was the group leader of this small group and he suddenly turned to shout at everyone, "Listen up. We are the alphas here while the rest of you are the betas and the omegas. If you want to live, you''ve better listen to my orders. Your leader name is Gao Kao."

    A nearby mortal cultivator immediately protested, "What are you trying to do¡­"

    BANGGG!!!

    Immediately the mortal cultivator that had protested was headshot by a pistol that was in the hands of the beefy mortal cultivator who had called himself Gao Kao.

    Many of the mortal cultivators were terrified by the sudden loud bang and many were wondering what sort of weapon it really was!

    One of Gao Kao''s subordinate immediately fired his machine gun on a tree; the rapid strafing were so loud but swift that everyone could see that the tree''s bark was being torn apart rapidly!

    Many of the cultivators were stunned by what they were seeing¡­

    It was only then that they noticed that Gao Kao''s group consists entirely of a group that was all carrying some weird ck weapons that could fire projectiles.

    "Defy us and your fate will be the same as him." Gao Kao smirked coldly.

    "What is the meaning of this?!" Another mortal cultivator wielding the same type of weapon as them asked with shock as he raised his firearm in rm in their direction.

    Not all the mortal cultivators wielding firearms had joined Gao Kao though and this mortal cultivator was one of them.

    Gao Kao stared coldly at him, "You''re from my era too. Surely you don''t want to join these peasants. Since you''ve a firearm, join us then and we can be the immortal gods of this new world. We can conquer the new world together."

    ? "This is a Hungry Game where only the fittest of the fit can survive. Didn''t you hear what that Trial Spirit had said earlier? We can be real cultivators if we can reach the top of the mountain."

    "In this type of trial, naturally the first one to reach the very top will have the greatest power and we aim to obtain this godly power for ourselves so that we can conquer this new world."

    "You''re all reincarnated here. Therefore you''re fit to carry our shoes for us."

    "As you can all see, our group has the strongest fire power here. Submit to us and we can ensure that we can carry everyone to the summit with little causalities."<sub> </sub>

    "Firstly of all, we want all the pretty women here to submit to us."

    "Secondly, we will be dividing everyone into small teams of 100. Every one of you will take turn to walk in front of us¡­"

    All of a sudden a loud roar had burst out of nowhere as a terrifying winged lizard had suddenly leapt into view and snapping off the head of Gao Kao in an instant.

    This terrifying winged lizard towered three times the height of the tallest man in the group and was only a second rank deste monster.

    Many of the mortal cultivators who had firearms reacted immediately by shooting at the terrifying winged lizard.

    Multiple strafing of glowing fire began to rain upon the terrifying winged lizard as the guns wielding cultivators screamed for blood to avenge their dead leader.

    The entire body of the terrifying winged lizard began to explode with multiple bursts impact that would surely tear any of the cultivators that were presented apart.

    But not this second rank deste beast; it was because it was protected by an invisible profound animus that rendered most physical attacks futile.

    Another mortal cultivator yelled aloud as he fired a RPG, "Everyone, get out of my way!"

    The rocket struck the head of the terrifying winged lizard and exploded mightily.

    Everyone was heaving relief as they were all sure that this terrifying winged lizard would not survive such a terrible implosion on its head.

    But to the astonishment of the cultivators, this terrifying winged lizard only had an injured eye but the injured eye was quickly covered by slime and in the next instant, the eye had fully regenerated!

    Everyone was rendered speechless by what they were seeing.

    "Attack it together! Don''t hesitate!" A mortal cultivator furthest away shouted but he was already moving away.

    "I''ve seen Jurassic Park. You can easily dodged it¡­"

    All of a sudden that talking cultivator and several cultivators were snapped into two by its tail. Several more were also sent flying away with severe injuries.

    Before the cultivators could react further, the terrifying winged lizard had gged its wings; in a blink of an eye, it had gged its wings more than 10 times and its razor sharp feathers were killing dozens and sending dozens more flying all around with the windforce that it was stirring!

    Many of the mortal cultivators were staring with great horror, staring with disbelief at what they were actually seeing.

    Many were so paralyzed with fright that they were unable to even move.

    A mortal cultivator shouted at the top of his voice, "I''m a cultivator from the mortal realm and we have these kinds of monsters from where I am from. You need to exert your strength through your inner cultivation core and only your profound strength can hurt these monsters! Throw away your useless missile weapons and sh it with your melee weapons! If you don''t have a melee weapon, pick up a rock and channel your profound energies into the rock before hurling it at the monster!"

    This mortal cultivator was actually right; only profound strength can prate the profound defenses of the deste beasts and halted its rapid regeneration.

    Otherwise, all the non-profound attacks werergely futile against the deste beasts. The higher rank deste beasts from the fourth rank onward werepletely immune to most firearms, even a cruise missile.

    As for the sixth rank and above deste monsters, they could survive even a nuclear bombardment and can be called the ''Godzi'' by the modern mortal cultivators.

    In the Celestial Realm, profound strength is the ultimate key to survival.

    Just as dozens of mortal cultivators were brandishing their weapons panicky, a dozen more of these terrifying winged lizards had suddenly emerged from the tall overgrowth and were ughtering everyone in their line of sight.

    These terrifying wing lizards had been attracted by the loud sounds of the firearms.

    Sensing no profound energies in the direction of the loudmotions which indicated there was actually little or no threat and possibly a good meal, these deste monsters quickly arrived at the scene.

    The sudden bloodbath had also attracted a few third rank deste beasts as well; several muscr lion-like deste monsters had also appeared out of the blue.

    Many of the mortal cultivators were training their firearms against these muscr lion-like deste monsters and were horrified that their bullets were falling off like sands against the fur of these monsters.

    "What the heck?!"

    "What is going on?"

    "Howe our weapons are not working against these monsters?!"

    "Everyone, run!"

    These deste monsters were actually quite startled to see so many cultivators in the vicinity but when they saw that these cultivators were moving like in a slow motion manner, the ughter feist against the cultivators were quickly started.

    All the mortal cultivators were stunned to see that these deste monsters were everywhere and were so agile that they could not evennd a hit against them. Instead, these deste monsters were moving so fast that they were like a blur sh.

    A mortal cultivator had raised his shotgun against one of the terrifying flying lizards and he was quickly stunned; this terrifying flying lizard had simply raised its talon to parry all the shotgun pellets.

    He was shocked, "This monster can see my bullets?!"

    But before he could react further, his head was beheaded by one of the terrifying flying lizard''s wing feather in a casual manner and at the same time, more than a dozen nearby mortal cultivators had also died in a blink of an eye, killed by the same monster.

 Chapter 327 The Trial Of The Transmigration (4)

    Ji Yuan''s jaws nearly dropped to the ground when he saw how pathetic the mortal cultivators were when they were screaming back to the safe zone.

    He tried tofort them, "It is alright. Just rest here until you''re ready to take the trial. Well I suppose that the rest of the group is on their way to the mountain peak, am I right?"

    A woman screamed hriously, "THEY ARE ALL DEAD! WE ARE THE ONLY SURVIVORS¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What the heck? What is going on here? You''re all safe here. Tell me what has happened? And is that all that is left here?"

    He could only count around three hundred of them.

    Out of five thousands, there were only three hundred survivors?!

    Ji Yuan could not believe what he was seeing after a mere half a day had just passed.

    He had heard a lot of firecrackers and thought that they were just celebrating their first voyager as a reincarnated cultivator.

    "All of you, wait here."

    He had to make sure what he was hearing first.

    When he had sped to the scene ahead, he waspletely stunned to find thousands of dead corpses. Literally more than four thousand dead mortal cultivators could be seen in pieces all over the ce.

    And the culprits seemed to be some easy to win second and third rank deste monsters.

    He totally had no idea what was happening.

    Many of the deste monsters were feeding on the dead mortal cultivator''s weapons.

    Ji Yuan soon saw that these deste monsters were licking on some ck powdery stuff and they were licking with great delight.

    He blinked with astonishment, "Why are they feeding these deste monsters with their weapons? I ask them to fight these deste monsters and not to feed them. What the hell is going on here?!"

    He had suddenly realized he was screwed; this easy trial had now be a nightmare trial.

    Soon he was back to the safe zone again as he stared at the hundreds of wailing mortal cultivators who were all shivering with fear and quite a few of them had lost their limbs or had severe injuries.

    He pointed at a mortal cultivator who looked more sane than the rest and asked bitterly, "Now tell me, what is going on here?!"

    "Great Cultivation God Ji Yuan¡­"

    The ''more sane'' mortal cultivator was actually sobbing and shivering but he managed to exin to Ji Yuan what had happened.

    Ji Yuan was stunned that there was an internal strife that he cursed out loud, "Didn''t I say that whoever reaches the top can be a cultivator in the Celestial Realm? When did I ever say you have topete to be the first?"

    "In cultivation, system andic stories, the first to reach the goal always gain the most power¡­"

    "The first to reach holds power over the rest¡­"

    "A hidden cheat may be revealed for the first¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard all their exnations, he had almost vomited blood but luckily, he was now a spirit entity so he managed to suppress his anger.

    He said bitterly, "There is no cheats whatever so. Wee to the brutal world of cultivation where hard work may not pay off."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    "What is that ck weapon?" Ji Yuan pointed at a firearm. "Can you show me how it is supposed to work?"

    The mortal cultivator with the firearm pressed the trigger with trembling fingers and there was a loud resonating bang.

    Ji Yuan could sniff the strong ck powdery smell even in spirit form; his nose has always been very sharp.

    "This is¡­"

    He was suddenly frowning, "This is a weapon from your world?! This ispletely a garbage weapon! How do you even channel your profound strength into this weapon? You can''t! You just press this trigger! No one uses a crossbow in the Celestial Realm for the same very reason!"

    "Also, this weapon is damn loud! Do you want to attract all the deste monsters from miles around to your group?"

    "Moreover, this ck powdery stuff attracts the deste monsters and they feed upon it.  Do you know the deste beasts can pick this scent from miles away? Who''s the idiot that invent this weapon to be used with this ck powdery stuff?!"

    Then he saw someone using aposite bow and he started to rebuke him, "No one uses a bow in the Celestial Realm too. Even though you can channel your profound energies to the arrow by pulling it with your profound strength but arrows have to be made of celestium. Do you know how rare celestium is in the Celestial Realm? They are what precious swords are made of. Do you think that you are a rich cultivator? Moreover at the lower cultivation level, the efficiency rate of your profound might is terrible. Better wait until you''re at the fourth realm level to use a bow!"

    The poor mortal cultivator sobbed, "I''m a hunter in my past life and I am best in using the bow¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually venting out his frustrations and he went on to rebuke several more mortal cultivators for their terrible choice of weapons.

    But eventually he had calmed down to say, "I want you all to regroup again and to go up to the mountain peak again. Now go!"

    "I''m not going¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "I shall stay here forever¡­"

    "No way I''m going back to the terrifying forest¡­"

    "That lizard is too terrifying¡­"

    "It looks like a bird though¡­"

    "I''m hungry¡­"

    "I''m exhausted¡­"

    "My injuries are too severe¡­"

    "I''m scare¡­"

    "I am not going anywhere¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "If they are not going anywhere, how the heck am I supposed to pass this trial?!"

    Fairy Anyang heard his soft curses and she was smiling, "If they''re not going anywhere then so are you. You will be forced to stay put here until this trial is over or until the end of the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Xiang Li was gasping with horror, "Oh no then won''t my Big Brother be screwed? Most importantly, no more bang, bang because we''re all struck here!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes immediately as he panicky shouted to everyone, "Listen up all of you! I will help you all to ovee this trial. This is because I have a kind soul. As the Trial Spirit here, I''m not supposed to aid you directly but I can give you advice on how to ovee this trial. With my aid, you will surely be able to ovee the trial!"

    How''s this? They should be delighted and cheering to the top of their voices now.

    Dead silence.

    No reaction¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the mortal cultivators were shaking their heads with fear and many were even biting their fingernails.

    No one was excited about entering the forest again and no one was excited about being a cultivator anymore.

    This group had only escaped because they were at the furthest point away from the deste monsters but even then, they could still remember all the dismembered bodies that were flying all over the ce.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "How about we have something to eat first?"

    Immediately the eyes of many of the cultivators lit up as they nodded eagerly;

    "We are hungry¡­"

    "Where is the food?"

    "I am really thirsty¡­"

    "We can ask the Trial Spirit¡­"

    Ji Yuan had an ugly face;

    They expect me to feed them?!

    He quickly forced out a smile, "Haha. We shall settle your hunger first. Next, we shall talk about the trial again¡­"

    But he was actually smiling most bitterly; with three hundred, they are not gonna survive even a single encounter with a fourth rank deste beast. Moreover I don''t think that they can even reach the foot of the mountain in the first ce¡­

    How the heck can a solid group of five thousand cultivators got their asses all wiped out by a couple of low level deste beasts?!

    Did he just make a new record in the Celestial Realm?

    This was a huge blow to his reputation...

    Worst; his bang, bang days are literally over now...

    He silently resolved; either they all have to die in this ce or at least one of them have to ovee this trial.

 Chapter 328 The Trial Of The Transmigration (5)

    Ji Yuan had said to mortal cultivators, "There are some berries and fruits upstream from here. Remember not to go too far."

    When they had returned, many of them were smiling excitingly; it was because they were carrying lobsters, prawns and crabs in their hands. They were literally drooling with excitement.

    But when Ji Yuan saw what was in their hands, he was gulping weakly as he cursed them; why are they eating mites, centipedes and spiders?! These mortal cultivators sure have funny taste buds¡­

    Maybe they are already being poisoned too much¡­

    These creatures are extremely tasty because they literally eat anything. When cultivators eat these creatures, they will also develop a ravenous appetite¡­

    Do these mortal cultivators even know that they are actually something weird? Or their intelligence is so low that they can''t tell that these creatures are all horrible creatures that look differently from us? They all have their skeletons outside and not inside¡­

    Since their inner cultivation sea is so weak now, maybe it doesn''t affect them very much. Most of them will perish anyway so I''ve better not share with them. I''ll let them discover all these things themselves in the future provided that they do survive.

    Right now, I''ve got to motivate them to go up to the mountain peak by hook or by crook or else I am really screwed¡­

    When all the cultivators had finished eating, they looked a lot more calmer now except for those that are still in great pain.

    But there was nothing Ji Yuan could do for them because he did not have any physical form now and he could not give them any profound pills.

    He could only pray silently for these cultivators; just treat it as a bad dream. After all, you already have your second chance but you''ve screwed it. But for me, I''ve only this one chance¡­

    Ji Yuan decided that he had to fix their morale first or rather their courage first.

    So he raised his voice to say, "Do you know why you''re all here?"

    "Because we''re losers in life¡­"

    "We have no aplishments in life¡­"

    "We are poor in our previous life¡­"

    "I''ve never kiss a girl before¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This group is a bunch of born losers¡­

    But he restrained himself from voicing his innermost thoughts and chuckled, "That is because all of you are the true sons and daughters of the heavens, that is why!"

    Everyone was curiously looking at Ji Yuan: ¡­

    We are the true sons and daughters of the heavens?

    "Do you know why you''ve survived and not the rest?" Ji Yuan pointed at them as he smiled. "That is because you''ve already passed the hardest trial now and had survived."

    The mortal cultivators were startled; we have already passed the hardest trial?

    Ji Yuan nodded with a fake smile, "That is right. And you''re all winners. This is actually a hidden trial and you''ve triggered the secret condition. Therefore all of you are now officially a true cultivator."

    The mortal cultivators could not contain their joys; we are the winners? For once, in our life?

    "You''re the champions." Ji Yuan grinned proudly at them.

    "Therefore from this point onward, I am going to teach you on how to be a true cultivator. When you are a true cultivator, you will be able to reach the peak of the mountain even with your eyes closed."

    A female mortal cultivator asked timidly, "Is it hard to be a true cultivator? What if I''ve no talent?"

    Many of the mortal cultivators were nodding and their eyes were showing fears that they may not have the talents at all.

    "I''ve always failed my exams¡­"

    "I have 0 for my exams all the time¡­"

    "My teacher says I''m hopeless¡­"

    "My master says I''m hopeless too¡­"

    Ji Yuan shook with his raised fingers, "Nay! This is as easy as 1+1 so don''t worry¡­"

    "Is 1+1 = 11?" A mortal cultivator asked.

    "I''m terrible in maths¡­"

    "I am uneducated¡­"

    "What is 1+1?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That is not the point." He finally said. "It is really easy like breathing, drinking and eating. No efforts are required!"<sub> </sub>

    "Really?" Many of the mortal cultivators were delighted.

    Ji Yuan was thinking; how am I going to teach these bunches of idiots to be a true cultivators in such a short time¡­

    But he forced himself to return a beautiful smile, "It is really easy because you are already winners."

    "First, I''ve to teach you how to use your divine sense."

    Many of the cultivators began to wonder out loud. "What is divine sense?"

    Ji Yuan exined bitterly, "Well, divine sense is something like your sixth sense. The stronger your spiritual sea in your inner cultivation core is, the stronger is your divine sense. But of course, your cultivation realm levels and your profound arts will also y a huge part."

    Then he said solemnly, "You have to depend on your divine sense at all times because most of the time, your reflexes may not be as fast as the deste beasts. They can really attack very fast and only your divine sense can warn you that they''re attacking. When they do, you need to dodge and you need to dodge fast or you will be dead next because your bodies will be ripped apart by them in the next instant."

    Many of the mortal cultivators were now looking at one another with a terrific expression; they had remembered how the deste beasts ughtered the rest as though they were like tofu.

    A mortal cultivator took the courage to ask, "But¡­we can''t move as fast as them¡­even I''ve blinked my eye, everyone around me is dead¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; this cultivator had struck a painful chord. From what he could see, these mortal cultivators are like free targeting boards for the deste monsters to kill.

    What had exactly happened in the Mortal Realm below?!

    Why has everyone be a pussy?!

    Did they all lead such decadent lifestyle that they have forgotten how to fight?

    This is going to be much harder than he had thought¡­

    But he smiled to them, "I''m going to put you all through to my special physical training. After you''ve emerged from it, you are going to be really, really fit."

    "Is it hard?" One of the mortal cultivators asked. "So what is the training routine like?"

    Ji Yuanughed. He is naturally going to keep things very easy for them all so he answered with a smile. "The routine will naturally be very easy and nothing that all of you cannot do. Firstly, for warm up, you are going for a 60 mile run. That will take less than 30minutes and then we will officially start our training routines¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen when he saw many of the cultivators had fainted from shock.

    "Run sixty miles in 30 minutes¡­"

    "This is impossible¡­"

    "It is too hard¡­"

    "I will rather die than run sixty miles¡­"

    "In my entire life, I''ve never run for more than ten miles¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; this is much harder than I''ve thought. Someone please kill all of them and deliver me from this trial¡­

    He began to wonder how the rest of his beloved maidens were all getting along or were they also suffering the same thing as him¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had all experienced the same shock as Ji Yuan and they were all banging heads at the sheer stupidity of the mortal cultivators.

    Literally most of them got wiped out in their first encounter.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had sent the cultivators off thinking that this trial looks easy enough.

    <o>,m "I don''t believe, I don''t believe¡­" Ling Feiyue muttered with shock.</o>

    Little Princess was cursing the dead mortal cultivators, "Did they even pay attention to what I am saying other than staring at me?!"

    Bai Qianfeng was furious, "I am an immortal. These mortals are driving me crazy with theirck of knowledge. This is definitely a generation gap¡­no two generation gap¡­"

    "If I''ve my physical body, I will surely whip them all." Shui Xisi wasmenting loudly.

    As for Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing, the two of them were serious in their trial and were patiently teaching the mortal cultivators the art of cultivation to prepare them properly so that they could all reach the summit.

    Even though the distance was quite short but they still felt they had to bring as many of the mortal cultivators to the summit so that they could have second chance in life.

    Therefore they were quite patient and did not rush in their trial undertakings.

    Elsewhere, 95% of the 300+ cultivators were all making the same mistakes as Ji Yuan; they were all thinking as long as one mortal cultivator manages to reach the summit then they will be able to clear the trial. That is why they see no point in wasting any time on these mortal cultivators.

    This was actually a ruse from the Giant Blob Trial Spirit; these high level cultivators had no idea how sucky the mortal cultivators were. In fact, their physical endurance and fighting ability were all worse than even a celestial first realm cultivator by several folds.

    This was something that most of the high level cultivators could not even imagine and he was leading many of the cultivators tocency.

    As a matter of fact, many of the celestial cultivators were now smiling bitterly now because they had suddenly realized it toote and that most of the mortal cultivators were actually losers in the mortal realm and hence, they were picked to be given a second chance.

    None of the mortal cultivators actually had the potential to be a true cultivator in the Celestial Realm and none of them could really fight.

 Chapter 329 The Trial Of The Transmigration (6)

    Ji Yuan was nowughing when all the 300 mortal cultivators hadpleted their run; they all had delightful faces and they were feeling highly motivated.

    For the very first time in their lives, they all feel like they were the winners and the champions.

    "So now, we all get to be the sons and daughters of the heavens?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That is right."

    All the mortal cultivators were extremely delighted and their morale was now unbeatable!

    Fairy Anyang sighed softly as she said with great sarcasm to Ji Yuan, "Running one mile in one hour? Even a tortoise can beat it."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "A tortoise definitely can''t beat that unless it is an immortal tortoise. But the size of that thing is already more than ten miles and it can move one mile with every step."

    Fairy Anyangughed, "Precisely. I am referring to the immortal tortoise."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was actually being sarcastic.

    But all of a sudden Fairy Anyang turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Do you really have a n?"

    Ji Yuan looked at her mounds through her flimsy dress, "It has to be more transparent¡­"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes because she knew what Ji Yuan was thinking while Fairy Anyang asked curiously, "More transparent? Meaning?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I mean we need a more transparent n to make my n an even better n. But I do have a n. Haha."

    Luckily, these mortal cultivators have weak divine senses and can''t see Xiang Li and Anyang or else they will be drooling at them like me now¡­

    But he quickly returned his attention to the mortal cultivators to ask him, "Well. I guess that you are all almost ready to go to the summit now. Haha."

    "So fast?"

    "Where is the sword fighting practice?"

    "But I don''t really know how to use my profound strength yet?"

    "No physical training?"

    "It is so easy?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course it is this easy. You''re all the survivors, the sons and daughters of the heavens. Your next step will be to reach the summit and be a true cultivator!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered, "I think our master is just trying to trick them into going to the summit. Why is it that I think that it is going to be a disaster in waiting?"

    Ji Yuan could hear Fairy Anyang now because she was not whispering to Xiang Li in the immortal sword but was forced to appear next to him.

    When he had overheard Fairy Anyang, he whispered back. "This is merely the first step of my n."

    Xiang Li put her face into her palms, not believing in Ji Yuan and was feeling extremely awkward; it was because it was a no brainer to see what would happen next. Ji Yuan was not even training them at all.

    But Ji Yuan insisted to them, "This is important that I give them the courage first. When they have courage, they will triumph over the most difficult trial. This is called the power of the soul."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    What is the power of the soul when in actuality, these mortal cultivators are all powerless and as weak as an infant?

    Ji Yuan pped his hands to get everyone''s attention, "Haha. From this point onward, you are all going to be true cultivators. So does everyone have any cultivation questions for me?"

    "Is there money in the Celestial Realm?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "Well, we do use bronze, silver and gold coins here. The more expensive cultivation resources will require spirit stones and high grade spirit stones."

    "What is the difference between a high grade spirit stones and a normal spirit stones?" Another asked.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Well, you need 1000 normal spirit stones to exchange for one high grade spirit stones. The normal spirit stones are actually almost worthless to be used as a trade. High grade spirit stones on the other hand can be used to recover your spiritual sea after a cultivation realm breakthrough and with some luck, you can even buy a divine sword with it. But that will be like a hundred thousand or more for a half-step mortal divine sword."<sub> </sub>

    "But as long as we work hard, we can easily earn the high grade spirit stones, am I right?" Another asked.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''ve to be very honest with you. If you have one thousand high grade spirit stones, you are actually a rich cultivator. Most cultivators even if they work hard, hunt the deste beasts all the time and risk their lives in the trials, they will never even see one hundred high grade spirit stones in their entire lifetime."

    "So it is actually very hard to obtain high grade spirit stones?" Another asked.

    Ji Yuan answered, "Actually it is not hard. It is just that high grade spirit stones are owned by the rich cultivation ns and they have literally millions. I just happen to know one celestial n that burn a billion high grade spirit stones recently."

    He was actually referring to the Mo n; Diviner Mo Ming had burned a billion high grade spirit stones so that he could take the Dream Trial.

    "Isn''t it like our real world? There are millionaires and billionaires but most people don''t even have a 100,000 in their bank ounts¡­"

    "What is the fastest way to earn high grade spirit stones then?" Another asked.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Well, you can hope to marry to the daughter of one of the rich celestial ns. Then you can be rich."

    The same person who asked the question earlier said, "That will make me a gigolo. I won''t do this. It is against my manly pride."

    Ji Yuan frowned; does he even have a pride at all?

    But he asked, "What is a gigolo?"

    Many of the mortal cultivators echoed at the same time, "It is someone that depends on a woman for a living."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did they just insult me by saying that I am a gigolo?

    When did I depend on a woman for a living?

    Xiang Li was giggling, "Yes, my Big Brother is a gigolo."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan forced himself to smile, "You''re not going to be rich if you''re not a seventh realm golden saint. Meaning to say, you have to first reach the seventh realm sacred saint level first in order to obtain rare cultivation resources. It is because sixth realm golden supremacies aremon ce in the Celestial Realm."

    Many were shouting aloud, "Then we shall all strive to be seventh realm golden saints!"

    Ji Yuan thought; well, good luck to all of you. Most of you will perish even before you can even be a fourth realm cultivator.

    Heughed, "So, shall we go to the summit now?"

    "Wait Great God Ji Yuan, shouldn''t we give a name to our group first? Since we are the sons and daughters of the heavens that are destined to be true cultivators?"

    "How about the 300 Spartans?"

    "Sounds like an awesome name¡­"

    "It sounds pretty heroic as well¡­"

    "Let''s use this name then¡­"

    Ji Yuan said, "Then you shall be known as the 300 Spartans then. But what is it supposed to be mean?"

    Many of the mortal cultivators were also asking the same because they had never heard of the name before.

    "Where I havee from, these 300 are heroes that all die together. Real heroes."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The rest of the mortal cultivators: ¡­

 Chapter 330 The Trial Of The Transmigration (7)

    As the 300 Spartans marched into the forest again, Ji Yuan was taking the lead in front of them.

    He was shouting words of encouragement to them, "You''re all sons and daughters of the heavens. You are all blessed by the Great God Ji Yuan, the Great Cultivation God. No dangers wille to you because luck will always shine upon you. As long as you''re united and move as a group, even a ninth rank deste monster will be afraid of you. This is the power of your soul! Soul power is your strength!"

    Fairy Anyang sighed heavily, "This is such a tant lie. The next encounter with the deste monsters will expose your lies."

    Xiang Li was forced to agree as well. "Big Brother, do you really have a n? What is the n? Don''t tell us, this is your n?"

    "No n is the best n?" Fairy Anyang offered a helpful suggestion.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I do have a n and a good n."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "What is it?"

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Xiang Li solemnly, "I''m not training them to be true cultivators. They''re hopeless. So I''m training you to be a true cultivator instead."

    Xiang Li was startled and returned a perplexed look, "But Big Brother, I''m useless."

    Ji Yuanughed, "You may be useless but you are not hopeless."

    "What is the difference?" Xiang Li asked curiously.

    "Stop interrupting me, Xiang Li." Ji Yuan frowned. "Do you want to hear my n or not?"

    Xiang Li nodded slowly while Fairy Anyang smiled, "I am curious to know as well."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the mortal cultivators who were marching behind him, "You will soon know."

    These mortal cultivators were not all simpletons and many were curiously asking;

    "Where the 100 pushups?"

    "Where the 100 sit ups?"

    "Where is the 100 squats?"

    "Where is the 10 miles run?"

    "No body strengthening training?"

    "We only have a 3 day meditation to prepare us¡­"

    "Isn''t our training too easy?"

    "Great God Ji Yuan says we won''t be encountering any more deste monsters from this point onward because we are all the sons and daughters of the heavens¡­"

    "He looks like a chatan to me¡­"

    "Where Ie from, there is a god by the name of Loki. He has a handsome face too. Maybe he is Loki in disguise and he is just trying to y a trick on us¡­"

    "But he is the handsomest man that I''ve ever seen so he must be a trustworthy person¡­"

    "Looks can be deceiving¡­"

    "Does all the women here only look at the looks?"

    "There must be a plot, a conspiracy or a twist!"

    "Maybe this is the Liar Game?"

    "Or the Life or Death Game?"

    "I am prepare to run back to the safe zone at the first sign of danger¡­"

    "Yea, me too¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "I''m with you for sure¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not care what they were muttering. Although he could sense their fear but the main point was, he had managed to get their butts moving and that was actually the most important point to him.

    So he shouted, "Spartans! Forward!"

    A woman cultivator asked, "Can a woman be a Spartan warrior too? I''ve never heard of it back to where I am from¡­"

    "This is a parallel isekai world so don''t mind the small technicalities¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was now saying to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "Did you all sense it? There are deste beasts that are near us now."

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang nodded as they sung in chorus, "This group is going to see their maker soon¡­"

    "Not so." Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at Xiang Li, "Now it is the time for you to be a true cultivator."

    Xiang Li: ???

    "Xiang Li, I want you to take on your physical form and go kick the deste beasts'' asses." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    "But Big Brother, I''m useless. Do I have the profound strength?" Xiang Li asked nervously.

    "They are only first rank to fourth rank deste beasts. While I am struck in this spirit form but you''re still able to draw upon my spiritual sea. That means on paper, you''re also a great saintess. Even though you don''t have any profound arts but one kick from you is still going to hurt most of the asses of the deste beasts hard."

    "And moreover, you''ve got one advantage that you can make full use of." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "What is it?"

    "Your stealth. In your spirit form, these deste beasts can''t sense you fast enough and you will be able to able to kick their asses and they can''t even hurt you even if you are able to go close to them." Ji Yuan exined.

    Xiang Li looked a little afraid. "But these deste monsters all have strong profound strength. They may be able to injure me."

    Even if Xiang Li is in spirit form, she can be injured by profound energies easily. In fact, she is quite vulnerable to it.

    "ording to the information that I''ve, none of the deste monsters here are capable of exerting any profound energies and their profound strength won''t be able to affect you too much because you are a great saintess. Remember you''ve the strength of my profound recovery." Ji Yuan exined further.

    Xiang Li nodded slowly, "But I''ve a condition, Big Brother. Or else I won''t do it."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You and me are one now. My sesses are your sesses and my failures are your failures. Do you need to negotiate a condition with me?"

    "But I am afraid, Big Brother. So I need a motivation." Xiang Li giggled.

    "Alright then." Ji Yuan heaved a soft sigh of resignation. "I will do more bang, bang for you. What do you say?"

    Xiang Li shook her head, "That is not what I want."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan said with a deep growl. "Then what is it that you want so that you can have the ''motivation''?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "I want to be Big Brother''s main consort."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Not only did Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped to the ground, Fairy Anyang was also stunned on the spot¡­

 Chapter 331 The Trial Of The Transmigration (8)

    The 300 Spartans were now singing loudly in the forest;

    "We''re all the sons and daughters of the heavens¡­"

    ? "We are all blessed by the Great God Ji Yuan, the Great Cultivation God¡­"

    "No dangers wille to us because luck will always shine upon us¡­"

    "This is the power our unified soul, our soul power is our strength as we triumphed over all adversaries¡­"

    "Hooray, hooray¡­"

    "We''re the Champions, we''re the Champions¡­"

    Fairy Anyang had a look of disbelief when she had heard the song that Ji Yuan had taught them to sing. "Do you really have to add a song when they''re marching? What if the noise attracts the deste monsters?"

    "Well, it helps with the morale." Ji Yuanughed. "Moreover, we have Xiang Li to seek out the deste monsters now."

    Fairy Anyang gave Ji Yuan a stern look, "You''ve better not lie to her or it will be very bad for your cultivation soul. She shares the same cultivation sea as you now and your bacsh will be very severe."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now; he had actually agreed to Xiang Li''s condition in an hurry to send her on the way before the deste monsters could close in on his 300 Spartans.

    "It must be a joke from Xiang Li, am I right? Just as the time she says that Ling Feiyue and I have four lifetimes together." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    But somehow he could sense that Xiang Li was quite serious about it, especially the delightful chuckles that she had made when she went on her way.

    "You do know that she is my little sister, don''t you?" Ji Yuan asked Fairy Anyang.

    Fairy Anyang returned a wry smile, "You''re not rted by blood. Why not?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "You may not know this but the maidens that I am with, they gossip too much and they may corrupt my innocent Xiang Li."

    "Is it good this way? Then Xiang Li can surely get along well with your other consorts." Fairy Anyang smiled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    In the meantime elsewhere, Xiang Li was now happily appearing before the deste beasts one by one as she gave them a kick on their asses with her foot.

    She giggled. "Big Brother did say that all I need to do is to kick their asses. This is so fun¡­"

    The deste monsters were naturally not a match for Xiang Li''s brutal kick and the word quickly spread to the other deste monsters that there was a crazy spirit in the forest that was only aiming at their asses and she reveled in their agonizing cries; it caused all the deste monsters to stay steer of Xiang Li in no time.

    -

    -

    -

    After three days of marching and difficult terrain, the mortal cultivators were actually astonished that they had actually reached the summit without any dangers or encounters.

    "This is amazing¡­"

    "Great God Ji Yuan really did not lie to us¡­"

    "He must be a real god¡­"<sub> </sub>

    When everyone had reached the summit, they could feel that their bodies were dissipating but they were not afraid because they could feel soothing energies into their bodies.

    Ji Yuan said proudly to them as he waved at them, "You will be sent to the Celestial Realm as a celestial cultivator now. Good luck and farewell¡­"

    And may we never meet again, yeah!

    All the mortal cultivators were waving their hands as they said tearfully to Ji Yuan, "Great God Ji Yuan, thank you so much. Hope that we may have a chance to meet you again one day¡­"

    "So, we are all going to be the new gods of this ''Celestial Realm''?"

    "Why not? We are supposed to be the sons and daughters of the heavens. Isn''t that what Ji Yuan has said to us?"

    Ji Yuan waved his hand as he shouted loudly, "Remember to sing my song as a prayer. Good luck everyone!"

    Yeah, they''re going to need a lot of luck as a first and second realm cultivators¡­

    Xiang Li was also very delighted as she looked lovingly at Ji Yuan who was trying not to look at her, "Big Brother, we''ve ovee the trial."

    "Yes¡­" Ji Yuan answered her weakly.

    I have to keep my promise to her now? Is Xiang Li for real? Spirit and human cannot marry¡­

    Ji Yuan was also dissipating at the same time as them as well; it was because he was being returned to the presence of the Giant Blob Trial Spirit.

    There was a brilliant sh of light as Ji Yuan disappearedpletely.

    When he had opened his eyes again, he found himself looking at the Giant Blob who was staring nkly at him.

    "You have passed the trial and you''re the first one to ovee this trial."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "I''m the first one to ovee this trial? What about the rest?"

    The Giant Blob smiled wickedly, "They''re all still struggling toplete this trial."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Then I must be a genius."

    "You''re a cheater." The Giant Blob was not amused. "It seems that you''ve a sentient immortal spirit to help you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "No methods are too unorthodox in a trial, don''t you think so?"

    The Giant Blob hummed coldly, "Here is your reward and be gone from here."

    There was a small pouch that floated into Ji Yuan''s hands and when he had opened it, he saw five rainbow profound pills.

    "What is this?" He asked curiously.

    "These five profound pills are the Rainbow Celestium Profound Pills." The Giant Blob said casually.

    Ji Yuan was shocked; the Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill is a mythical profound pill that is said to exist but very few celestials have actually seen it before. It is actually a sixth rank alchemy pill and the cultivator will be able to ovee their life and death tribtion without any consequences.

    In short, these Rainbow Celestial Profound Pills are extremely precious because with it, the cultivators can rank up in their cultivation realm without fearing for their lives.

    Ji Yuan naturally did not need these five Rainbow Celestial Profound Pills anymore so he was thinking of presenting it as gifts.

    He was naturally thinking that he could give it to Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Wan''Er and even to Chen Hanhan.

    "One question¡­" Ji Yuan said. "Did my party pass this trial or not¡­"

    "Be gone!" The Giant Blob growled. "You talk too much."

    And Ji Yuan was forcefully teleported away.

 Chapter 332 The Peak Of Loneliness (1)

    Ji Yuan found himself alone in an unknown ce after he was teleported away.

    He had ovee the trial and hence he was taken to another location.

    But after waiting for a few days, there was still no sight of the others.

    A breeze blew and a leaf drifted in front of Ji Yuan''s mncholy face.

    Extreme loneliness¡­

    To be invincible and to be the number one cultivator is extremely lonely¡­

    He began to sigh heavily, "I am now the number one cultivator. So it is what happens when you''ve reached the peak of cultivation and where there are no others¡­"

    "So this is the feeling of loneliness at the very top, the price of invincibility..."

    "Big Brother, you are not the number one cultivator yet and moreover you''re just the number one for only the earlier trial. You will see them very soon." Xiang Li winked at him.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Xiang Li¡­"

    Xiang Li winked at him, "Or maybe I shouldn''t call you Big Brother anymore but my lord like Big Sister Qianfeng?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Remember that you still have to call me Big Brother. Only you know and I know about this."

    He had agreed to take Xiang Li as his main consort but he had made Xiang Li promised not to tell anyone until the time is ripen or else he would not know how to exin it to the other maidens.

    He had not sessfully wooed Maiden Feng yet and he felt that he had already lost most of his good impressions in her eyes.

    If he tells the maidens that he is going to take Xiang Li as his main consort, they will think of him as a big pervert.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Alright, Big Brother!"

    Fairy Anyang had popped out to giggle, "Don''t forget that only you, she know but I also know."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had forgotten that he had another talking spirit entity.

    "And you too. This secret is between the three of us." Ji Yuan smiled weakly.

    "Yes Master!" Fairy Anyang giggled. "Since you''re willing to take Xiang Li as your main consort, why don''t you take me as your main consort as well?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When Fairy Anyang saw Ji Yuan''s awkward expression, she began to chuckle jovially; she was only teasing him.

    "Alright then. Then you shall be my second spirit consort." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "I was only joking. It isn''t real. Are you joking?"

    Ji Yuan answered very solemnly, "I''m not joking. What if you go around and tell others about Xiang Li and I? That will be too dangerous for my reputation. Therefore you have to be part of our murky reputation. Moreover, I don''t want you to badmouth Xiang Li on the sly and I need the two of you to get along."

    Xiang Li quickly protested. "But Big Brother, Fairy Anyang and I are actually getting along very well¡­"

    "She shall be your Sister Anyang from now on." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    If Anyang had a physical body, she would be vomiting blood and now Ji Yuan was exercising his will upon her now. This caused her to feel a need toply with it or else she would be afflicted with a bacsh; after all, she had already acknowledged Ji Yuan as her master¡­

    She struggled weakly before her voice trembled, "Yes¡­my lord.... Xiang Li shall be my Sister Xiang Li from now on¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially. "That is good. This secret shall be kept between the three of us from now onward."

    Finally his secret is safe!

    Fairy Anyang was almost in spirit tears; why didn''t she keep her mouth shut?

    Xiang Li shook her head awkwardly as she looked at Fairy Anyang; my Big Brother is really an unpredictable cultivator. You will never know what he is going to do or say next¡­

    Actually what Ji Yuan and Xiang Li did not know is that Immortal Spirits actually can enter into matrimony with each other and that once they do so, they will enter into a sacred contract that will pledge their soul to the undying loyalty of their soul partners.<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Anyang now felt that she had screwed herself very badly¡­

    She had thought that she may be able to remain an independent spirit since she inhabits the Immortal Sword and not Ji Yuan''s soul sea. But it is not possible anymore. Ji Yuan is now her lord¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw a light blinking down below and he knew that a cultivator had just been teleported to the vicinity.

    He had been standing on the highest point so that he can have a better look at the entire vicinity. Luckily for him, this ce was a londs and did not have many forests and mountains.

    Straining his golden eyes, he was excited to see that it was Bai Qianfeng that had appeared!

    He immediately shed down from where he was standing to her direction.

    Hooray! He was no longer the only one in the peak of loneliness!

    He finally had apetitor!

    "Qianfeng! Qianfeng! Haha, it is so good to see you again. It seems that you''ve passed the trial." He shouted excitingly while waving his hands.

    Bai Qianfeng was delighted to see Ji Yuan; she had an unpleasant look earlier and it seemed like she wanted to kill someone.

    She asked, "My lord, where is the rest? You''ve passed the trial as well? Sorry I''mte. I have run into some trouble with my trial."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "You''re not sote. In fact, you are the second after me to arrive in this vicinity."

    "This trial is really a tricky one. I''ve underestimate the trial." Bai Qianfeng sighed.

    Then she smiled, "It seems that my lord is the genius one for seeing through the trial, unlike me."

    Ji Yuan patted his chest proudly, "Of course your lord is a genius! In fact, the Trial Spirit had praised me as an impossible genius after I''ve be the first cultivator toplete the trial and I was even given me a pretty handsome reward forpleting the trial. Haha."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Sister Feiyue had already told me many times that you''re good with the trials. In fact, our trial results are pretty good with your leadership."

    Ji Yuanughed and his ego was ballooning. "Haha. Actually sometimes I just want to be a little humble but when you''re this good, you just can''t stop yourself from getting the number one spot."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li secretly whispered to Fairy Anyang, "Big Brother is always trying to impress Sister Qianfeng. It makes his manly pride feel good if he can boast in front of her."

    Ji Yuan was now asking, "Qianfeng, how did you manage to ovee your trial?"

    Bai Qianfeng returned an unpleasant look as she said, "The group that I was leading had been reduced from five thousand mortal cultivators to just a handful. In the end, in the end¡­"

    In the end she was so furious that she had disyed her raging immortal profound animus; this caused the deste beasts to be fearful in her presence and they had all stayed steer of her.

    But of course she could not tell Ji Yuan that she had lost her temper so she smiled weakly, "In the end, my group shows plenty of determination and courage. Their efforts are not in vain and finally they have managed to reach the summit. I must give them the credits."

    "Is that so?" Ji Yuan smiled weakly. Why is Qianfeng''s group so much better than my useless group?

    "My lord, how did you pass your trial?" Bai Qianfeng asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan was frozen on the spot; he had to think of an excuse fast or he will be screwed¡­

    "Qianfeng, do you know how much that I''ve been missing you?" Ji Yuan was suddenly kissing Bai Qianfeng passionately.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped several times when Ji Yuan''s fingers were already moving all over her body. "My lord, this isn''t appropriate am I right? We are in the wilderness¡­"

    "Precisely because we''re in the wilderness and there is no one around. Qianfeng, do you miss me?" Ji Yuan said.

    "I do¡­"

    "Then what are you waiting for?" Ji Yuan interrupted her with a kiss as he tried to pull her belt off but it was locked by Qianfeng''s profound animus.

    But to his delight, it was loosened in the next instant.

    Silently, Qianfeng had already given her consent.

    Ji Yuan was not shy as he quickly explored under her dress. "Qianfeng, we didn''t do for a long time already, am I right?"

    Bai Qianfeng returned a flushed nod.

    Xiang Li was giggling excitingly as she quickly appeared before them, "Big Brother, Big Sister Qianfeng¡­hehe¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng flushed even more shyly when she saw Xiang Li, "I''ve almost forgotten about Xiang Li¡­"

    "Forget about Xiang Li. This is our moment." Ji Yuan had gentlyid her onto the ground and he was slowly stripping her and reveling in her beauty. "Today, I will be the alpha of the alphas¡­"

    Fairy Anyang was shocked by Xiang Li''s actions as she whispered secretly to her, "What are you doing? They are doing something private. Why are you appearing before them?"

    But Xiang Li continued to giggle away and she was flushing shyly, "Big Brother¡­"

 Chapter 333 The Peak Of Loneliness (2)

    Dayster;

    Ji Yuan was holding onto Bai Qianfeng''s hand as he whispered in her ears, "Qianfeng, I love you. I really do."

    Bai Qianfeng returned a loving look at him. "My lord¡­"

    They had copted for many days in a row due to their pent up desires.

    "My lord, so how did you manage to ovee the trial to be the first one to pass?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The question has returned¡­

    Heughed, "I was actually suspicious about the trial in the first ce. As you know, this is a fifth level trial therefore I was already suspicious that the trial seemed too easy."

    "No, you didn''t!" Both Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang echoed silently at the same time.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded with a heavy sigh, "At first I''ve my suspicion as well but since I was the Trial Spirit and had all the information, I didn''t think there will be a catch."

    "The problem isn''t with the trial itself but the mortal cultivators themselves. They are a bunch of born losers." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "I''ve realized that toote." Bai Qianfeng said mncholy. "But I must really praise the sharp perception of my lord. It is a lucky thing that you''ve discovered it early or else you may have almost failed the trial like me. So how many survivors do you got?"

    Ji Yuan grinned awkwardly as he lifted his three fingers.

    "Three thousands? That is a lot. I''ve only thirty survivors." Bai Qianfeng was clearly very impressed.

    "Haha." Ji Yuan was also quite impressed with himself, for making through his lies.

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    "I am a little anxious for the others now." Bai Qianfeng said. "Actually this trial is not easy at all¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a brilliant sh of light that had appeared in the vicinity.

    Both Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng were startled as they quickly turned to the direction of the light to have a better look.

    A maiden began to materialize down below where they were watching and she was Shui Xisi.

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed; Sisi had also ovee the trial!

    He quickly shed down the mountain as he yelled aloud. "Yo Sisi! You''ve also passed the trial too!"

    In a short while, Ji Yuan was already hugging Shui Xisi. "Haha. Sisi, I''m missing you so much¡­"

    "Don''t¡­Qianfeng is here." She protested weakly.

    "Haha. It isn''t a secret that I will be taking you as my main consort." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Well, if you die in this ce then I am surely not going to marry you for sure." She giggled. "And who says anything about marrying a rascal like you? Did you even ask me if I am agreeable or not? What are my betrothal gifts? If it is too cheap, I''m not going to marry you. Never say I didn''t warn you first."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Her heart is already willing to be my consort yet she still has to act so cheekily¡­

    But she soon smiled awkwardly, "Sorry for keeping you and the rest in waiting. I have encountered a little difficulty in this trial."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Not at all. You''re actually the third after Qianfeng and I."

    Shui Xisi looked at Ji Yuan with a perplexed look, "You have passed this trial ahead of me?"

    "Obviously I did and I am the top cultivator for the trial as well. The Trial Spirit says that I am the first to have ovee the trial." Ji Yuanughed.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She muttered weakly, "You''re smarter than I''ve thought."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "So how did you manage to ovee the trial?"

    Shui Xisi answered weakly, "After some difficulty, my good-for-nothing group managed to reach the summit."

    She had actually threatened them with all kinds of threats with her whip to drive them ahead and even threatening to remove the safe zone. That was a lie; she can''t remove the safe zone.

    In the end only a handful had survived because they were all running nonstop.

    But she quickly added weakly, "They felt inspired by me and they didn''t want disappoint my guidance."

    "Haha, so I see." Ji Yuanughed but he was cursing; why is it that my group seems the most useless?!

    Shui Xisi asked as she looked at Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng, "Do you think that we are the only three that have ovee this trial?"

    Ji Yuan sighed bitterly, "I hope not!"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "Let''s wait for a few more days."

    Ji Yuan sighed, "I have full faith in Feiyue and Little Princess. After all, they are all strong willed cultivators. But for Maiden Feng and Maiden Yu, s, maybe we won''t be able to see them for the time being."

    -

    -

    -

    Sure enough, after waiting for a few more days, there were two shes of light.

    Ji Yuan was excited immediately.

    Once again, he sped down from the mountain slope and saw that it was Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing.

    Ji Yuan was truly startled, "Maiden Feng, Maiden Yu?"<sub> </sub>

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "Sorry foring a littlete. You seem quite surprised to see us?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It is within my expectations."

    Feng Minyue saw that Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were with Ji Yuan so she asked curiously, "Where are Feiyue and Little Princess?"

    "They are still in the trial I guess." Ji Yuan said with a disappointed look.

    Feng Minyue merely returned a light nod; she could tell that Ji Yuan was really anxious for the whereabouts of Ling Feiyue and Little Princess. Even though he did not say it loud but he was not in his usual self.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi could also see Ji Yuan''s anxiety look and they could see how restless he had been for the past few days.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were very dear in Ji Yuan''s heart. After all, they all had been through some very rough times together.

    Yu Jingjing suddenly said, "Ji Yuan, I want to ask you something."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "What is it?"

    Yu Jingjing said quietly, "Are you serious about me?"

    Ji Yuan was startled; why did she suddenly ask me about this question. Did she receive a setback in the trial?

    There was a slight flush in Yu Jingjing''s countenance, "That day when you touch me in my most personal ce, they have all witnessed it. I like you too but are you serious about me?"

    Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue were all startled that Yu Jingjing was dering her love for Ji Yuan in front of them.

    Feng Minyue sighed to herself, "I like Ji Yuan too but I don''t have the courage to tell him so¡­"

    Yu Jingjing said with the most utmost care, "I''ve an immortal recipe that can restore your beard. I can help you. As long as we can be together¡­"

    Ji Yuan patted her on her shoulder, interrupting her. "Jingjing, I like you too. And I hope that you can be my beloved as well. I want to let you know that I am not ying with your feeling and I really like you as well."

    Yu Jingjing broke into a smile, "Really? Then¡­"

    "As for the immortal recipe, I''ve no need of it because beards are ugly." Ji Yuan smiled.

    But he was actually thinking; I won''t fall into the same trick twice. After all Qianxue had already used the same trick on me. Haha.

    Yu Jingjing smiled and her tears had turned bleary, "This is good, this is good¡­"

    As she muttered her delights, she had also taken out a luminous pearl. "This is the Divine Translucent Pearl and is my reward for the trial earlier. This profound treasure can allow me to go to the celestial fraternity of my choice after the trial. All I need is a drop of your blood on it."

    Ji Yuan was actually delighted and he wasted no time to cut his finger, dripping his golden blood on it. "Jingjing, I will surely take you as my consort and I will treat you well."

    Yu Jingjing smiled with blissfulness. "As long as I am with you, my heart is d."

    Ji Yuan smiled with delight as well; he had remembered that he had actually molested Yu Jingjing while under the influence of the masculine pills and until today, he had no idea how to exin to her.

    Although his bad deeds were stopped just in time by his other consorts but he had felt that he had ruined the chastity of Maiden Yu.

    Hence out of guilt, he had been trying to avoid her.

    It was especially so when a series of eventster had caused his good reputation to plummet in front of her and Feng Minyue, especially when he was caught in the act with Sisi in the great valley¡­

    Bai Qianfeng immediately pulled Yu Jingjing to her, "From now onward, we will be a family."

    She had purposely said it loud in front of Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue because she knew that they liked Ji Yuan but did not dare to admit it openly.

    "Thank you, Sister Qianfeng." Yu Jingjing was delighted. "I will love to know all of you better."

    She took a forlorn look at Ji Yuan, "By going with you, I will be losing everything but I won''t regret it because you are the man of my heart."

    Ji Yuan smiled and said solemnly to her, "I may be poor but I will protect you."

    Xiang Li was also delighted as she did not expect that there would be such a sudden change of events. "So Big Brother, when are you going to bang her?"

    "Shut up Xiang Li. You''re spoiling a most romantic moment." Ji Yuan secretly made a whisper to her.

    JI Yuan hugged Yu Jingjing as he said warmly to Yu Jingjing, "I feel that I''m the luckiest man in this trial. Haha."

    Although he was hugging Yu Jingjing, he was actually secretly looking at Feng Minyue who shyly avoided looking at him¡­

    "Ji Yuan, do you know that you''ve touched my heart that day when youposed that song for me." Yu Jingjing said to him with meaningful nces.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; actually I''veposed that song for Maiden Feng¡­

    All of a sudden, there were two brilliant shes of light that startled everyone.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had both suddenly appeared and they had an unpleasant look on their faces due to the trial that they had just faced.

    Unlike Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing who had trained the mortal cultivators from the very start, they had made the same mistake as Ji Yuan and most of the other cultivators. In the end, they had to use their astonishing beauty to motivate the mortal cultivators. They were already thinking; better don''t let Ji Yuan knows about this...

    But when they saw Ji Yuan was hugging Yu Jingjing in front of them, they were even more startled as they said at the same time, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan was excited to see them again as heughed, "Wait, wait! This isn''t what you''re thinking. I can exin¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, what are you saying?" Yu Jingjing asked. "You''ve just pledged to take me as your consort."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Actually it is actually what you''re all thinking."

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were startled, "What?"

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling, "That is right. Maiden Yu will be our Sister Jingjing from now onward."

    Xiang Li giggled silently, "And me too as well."

    Fairy Anyang muttered with cold sarcasm, "And so am I as well."

 Chapter 334 All The Super Cultivators (1)

    In a lonely peak in the Deste Celestial Fraternity where the spiritual aura was weak and where no cultivators would even bother to visit;

    Two peaked great saints, one from the orthodox fraternity and one from the unorthodox fraternity were quite startled to see each other on the peak.

    "You?! Why are you here?" Mo Ming the Diviner was startled when he saw that it was Venerable Elder Ling Fang from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect as well as one of the top 10 most powerful super cultivators from the unorthodox fraternity side.

    Ling Fang is actually Ling Feiyue''s grandfather''s grandfather and he was the oldest cultivator in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. Not only that, he could even decided the entire fate of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    The top 10 super cultivators on both sides of the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators were all super cultivators with a high aplishment in their profound arts.

    Most cultivators hardly had a chance to encounter them and even great saints were wise enough to stay steer of them; it was because they had defeated countless number of great saints under their belts and were all old monsters.

    Even though cultivators could reach the sacred saint level and be a golden saint but what made them truly formidable were their secret profound arts.

    Cultivations without formidable profound arts are literally shit in front of these old monsters.

    And profound arts unlike cultivation cannot be taught easily because every individual cultivator will have their different experiences to ovee the barrier of the profound arts.

    Profound arts often have insane barrier to ovee and cannot be resolved simply by meditation alone.

    The secrets of most profound arts can only be discovered if the cultivators applied it against real life and death worthy opponents so that the cultivators would be able to understand its origin to the fullest in order to fully advance it to the next level.

    And these two old monsters were the super cultivators in this era.

    Most of the top 10 super cultivators in both the orthodox and unorthodox fraternities were all in seclusion and were rarely seen.

    Mo Ming was frowning, "Darn, I should have divined first before Ie."

    "Old freak, why aren''t you dead yet?" Ling Fang was frowning.

    Over the thousands of years, these two cultivators had fought against each other on numerous asions.

    "You''ve alle." A maiden in blue veiled had suddenly appeared with two other maidens by her side.

    Mo Ming gasped, "Qianxue? What is going on here?"

    "Tianshui, what is going on around here?" Ling Fang was also frowning.

    It was because the two of them had been invited by Xue Qianxue and Ling Tianshui at the same time. They were told that a super cultivator would be able to aid them to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

    Mo Ming frowned at the young looking veiled maiden in blue, "Don''t tell me that she is the super cultivator that can aid me to ascend to the Immortal Realm?"

    Xue Qianxue rubbed her belly with a cute smile, "That''s right!"

    It was almost time for her to give birth soon.

    Ling Fang turned to look at Ling Tianshui, "You should know that I will be ascending to the Immortal Realm in two months'' time. This isn''t a joke, am I right?"

    And he pointed at Mo Ming, "And why did you bring him here for? Is this a plot against me? If it is so then don''t me your patriarch for not showing any mercy to you."

    Mo Ming frowned, "I don''t like you either. Qianxue, what is going on around here?"

    But as he trusted Qianxue, he did not use her.

    The veiled blue maiden said quietly, "Please allow me to introduce myself first. I am better known as Saintess Fang Zhenfei from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect¡­"

    Ling Fang shouted furiously, "So this is really a plot against me!"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei is one of the leaders of the seven major orthodox ns. Naturally he would suspect a plot against him.

    Mo Ming was startled, "Qianxue, so you''re inviting me to join forces with Saintess Fang against this old monster?"

    Ling Tianshui panicky said, "Old Seniors, please take a step back first and cool it off first. We didn''t ask you toe here to fight."

    Mo Ming, Ling Fang: ???

    The veiled blue maiden in blue said quietly, "However not many people actually know that I am also the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    The jaws of both Mo Ming and Ling Fang almost dropped as they stared at the veiled maiden in blue.

    Jiajia removed her thin blue veil and her astonishing beauty startled both Mo Ming and Ling Fang.

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang could not believe their old golden eyes; so young and peerless in beauty, yet she is the actually the notorious super cultivator and leader of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower!

    This Divine Pce Master had once destroyed the 8th major orthodox celestial n and at one point of time, ''he'' was greatly feared in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    "She is a maiden?!" Mo Ming and Ling Fang gasped with shock that the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would actually be Saintess Fang Zhenfei and also a maiden.

    Mo Ming pointed at Jiajia, "I''ve never expected that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is actually the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. This is really new. Even my best divination is blocked from seeing the possibilities¡­"

    Ling Fang interrupted Mo Ming, "Old Monster. I think that this time we may have to join hands together if we are to get out of here alive."

    Mo Ming nodded, "Old Freak, I have to agree with you for once¡­"

    Jiajia interrupted them with a smile, "I''m not here for a fight. I am really here to aid you for your final ascension to the Immortal Realm."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Great Patriarch Mo, please trust Jiajia and please believe in me. We are not here to arrange for a fight but to aid you for your ascension."

    "Yes, this is our intention. Don''t you want to ascend to the Immortal Realm sessfully?" Ling Tianshui smiled. "Many great ones had failed in the past but the two of you will ascend as immortals."

    Mo Ming frowned, "Rubbish! My ascension will be a sessful one but I''m not sure about this Old Freak here."

    "Same goes for you as well, Old Monster!" Ling Fang growled. "The joke will be upon you instead."

    Jiajia said coolly, "Even with all your cultivation resources, you will only have 30-40% at the max. But I can promise you a 100% rate."

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang were both roaring out loudly, "A 100% rate?! You really know how to joke. You make it sound like it is such an easy matter."

    Jiajia smiled alluringly, "I am not lying to you."

    Mo Ming hummed coldly, "I don''t believe you."

    "Youngss, do you think that I am born yesterday?" Ling Fangughed jovially as though he had just heard the funniest joke in his life.

    "I am serious." Jiajia said as she slowly removed her cloak to reveal her mystic blue celestium dress, a rare celestial garb.

    Mo Ming blinked his golden eyes as he stared at her dress¡­

    Even Ling Fang was also blinking at the same time¡­

    It was because their divine sense had told them that she was actually wearing an immortal battle garb and such a profound treasure could not be found in the Celestial Realm.

    She waved her hand and two celestial swords floated in front of their eyes. "These two celestial swords will be able to aid you in your eventual ascension."

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang were startled; they had heard that the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce had a Hundred Flower Celestial Sword but they did not know that she actually had two other celestial swords!

    "Naturally with these two celestial swords, it is still not enough but I can aid you with my profound strength." Jiajia said.<sub> </sub>

    Mo Ming sarcastically said, "Are you trying to say that your profound strength is above us?"

    Even Ling Fang wasughing coldly, "I have heard enough already. I''m leaving already¡­"

    Jiajia said coolly, "My profound strength is indeed above the two of youbined."

    This caused Mo Ming and Ling Fang tough aloud at the same time, "She is really too arrogant, too insolence¡­"

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "Sister Jiajia has already formed her golden core. Not only that, she had long mastered the True Sacred Saint Profound Art."

    Mo Ming, Ling Fang: ¡­

    Ling Fang stammered, "This isn''t a joke?"

    Mo Ming smiled coldly, "Our profound artsbined are still stronger than any True Sacred Saint Profound Art. Youngss, you''re underestimating the two of us here¡­"

    Jiajia interrupted with a smile, "Is that so? What if I tell you that my profound art is also above the two of you?"

    She had suddenly leapt into the air and her Hundred Flower Celestial Sword had suddenly appeared in her hand.

    With a swing of her sword, a fluttering of profound sword energies had cleanly cut off the top of the mountain peak!

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang were speechless at her disy¡­

    "True flight¡­" Mo Ming was stammering. "This is not possible¡­"

    Ling Fang was gulping and blinking his eyes, "Her profound art does seem to be a little better than us but this doesn''t prove that she is able to defeat us."

    Mo Ming nodded weakly, "I''ve to agree with you for the second time, Old Freak."

    "But why should we believe in you?" Mo Ming and Ling Fang asked at the same time.

    Jiajia smiled, "That is because I''m daughter of the Great Goddess Alice, the future ruler of the Immortal Realm. My immortal name is Celeste Freya and I''m also the high priestess of the Goddess Theocracy in the Celestial Realm."

    Then she pointed at Mo Ming, "I believe that with this information now, you''re able to cast your divination now and you will know if I''m speaking the truth."

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang were stunned by Jiajia''s revtion.

    But they were not the only ones; even Xue Qianxue and Ling Tianshui were so startled that they were staring nkly at Jiajia.

    Future ruler of the Immortal Realm?

    Jiajia is the future ruler of the Immortal Realm?

    They could not believe what they were all hearing!

    Mo Ming was now divining with trembling fingers and he was soon gasping with shock, "She is really the daughter of the Great God Pangu¡­"

    Jiajia said coolly, "I can swear by my true name that I will send you to the Immortal Realm."

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang were suddenly on their knees, "Great Immortal¡­Great Goddess¡­please help us to ascend to the Immortal Realm¡­"

    They suddenly had no idea how to address Jiajia now¡­

    Jiajia said quietly, "You may address me as Saintess Fang here. I''ve not ascended yet."

    "Great Saintess Fang¡­" Mo Ming and Ling Fang quickly greeted her with trembling voice and they had purposely added a ''great'' in front of her saintess title.

    Jiajia said, "I need some help from the two of you before I can help with your ascension."

    Mo Mingughed, "Just count on us."

    "Please ask freely from us!" Ling Fangughed at the same time.

    Jiajia nodded before she said, "You''re not to reveal my identity to anyone, not even to Ji Yuan."

    Mo Ming smiled, "This is easy. But why mention Ji Yuan?"

    Jiajia had a slight flush on her countenance¡­

    Immediately Mo Ming and Ling Fang were smiling; it was very obvious to them now.

    "I know I''ve made the right choice to make him the Dark Lord of my celestial sect." Ling Fangughed out loud.

    "Damn Ji Yuan, he doesn''t even know he has such freaking luck." Mo Ming cursed softly.

    "Secondly¡­" Jiajia continued. "I need the two of you to help me to pass a message to the Immortal Realm."

    Mo Ming and Ling Fang had a perplexed look in their countenances; if Saintess Fang is the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice and the Great God Pangu then can''t she pass on the message to the Immortal Realm?

    Jiajia exined, "That is because the way to the Immortal Realm is nowpletely cut off. The only way for me tomunicate with the Immortal Realm is through the ascended immortals. Right now, I can only think of the two of you."

    "No problem!" Mo Ming and Ling Fang said together with great excitement.

    Lately they had been quite troubled by their eventual ascension and had been making plenty of preparations. But even then, they were unsure if they could ascend sessfully.

    But Saintess Fang had offered them a life line now and their dark clouds were lifted from their hearts.

    "Thirdly¡­" Jiajia turned to look at Mo Ming. "I need to use your Dream Trial to restore my golden cultivation core and also the soul of my Xiao Ruan."

    Mo Ming stammered, "That isn''t an issue¡­but¡­"

    "Qianxue has already told me that it will cost one billion high grade spirit stones." Jiajia smiled.

    Mo Ming nodded, "If Great Saintess Fang is able toe out with one billion high grade spirit stones then I will surely open the Dream Trial for you."

    Jiajia smiled, "Unfortunately I don''t have one billion high grade spirit stones. Not even a million high grade spirit stones. May I suggest that I have both old seniors toe out with 500 million high grade spirit stones each? After all, I''ve presented to you a celestial sword each and I will expending my profound strength to aid you for your ''100%'' ascension."

    Mo Ming, Ling Fang: ¡­

    500 million high grade spirit stones will almost bankrupt both their celestial ns¡­

    Actually Mo Ming and Ling Fang were both willing to bankrupt their celestial ns if they could ascend to the Immortal Realm given enough time to ponder over.

    Right now they were battling with their inner demons whether to leave some cultivation resources to their descendants.

    Mo Ming was thinking, "Without me, Mo Ming the Diviner, my Mo n won''t be able to gather cultivation resources from the other celestial ns in such an easy manner in the future¡­"

    Likewise Ling Fang was also thinking of the same thing, "If I take away almost all the cultivation wealth of my celestial n then my Spirit Blue Moon Sect will be the weakest of the five major unorthodox sect in the near future¡­"

    Jiajia smiled, "Do you have to think so seriously? You can''t bring your cultivation wealth to the Immortal Realm. You can only ascend with your divine swords to the Immortal Realm. I can promise you 5000 million high grade spirit stones and 33 heavenly fairies to be your consorts when I''ve be the future ruler of the Immortal Realm."

    When Mo Ming and Ling Fang heard her, they immediately shouted at almost the same time. "Deal!!!"

    Jiajia put her fingers behind her back; that is, when I''ve be the future immortal ruler. The two of you can wait long, long for my promise in the Immortal Realm¡­

 Chapter 335 All The Super Cultivators (2)

    Inside the Great Forsaken Basin;

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Evil Cultivation Master Yin Tianxing and the Sagess Alyssa greeted the Goddess Mei as they entered into the audience hall.

    The Goddess Mei said nonchntly, "The Great Demon God is already waiting for us."

    "Great Demon Lord, we give praises to your almighty name." They greeted the Great Demon God behind the curtain veil when they had entered into the hall.

    The Sagess Alyssa was the first to speak, "We can''t find her anywhere."

    The Great Demon Lord merely nodded, "The daughter of the Great Goddess Alice is indeed worthy to be our match. At this point, it doesn''t matter how much she has already known about our ultimate n. Anymunications to the Immortal Realm had long been severed on the day that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had descended."

    The Goddess Mei said solemnly, "But as long as she lives, she will be a threat to us."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi hummed coldly, "In this ce, we are practically invincible. She is merely a celestial."

    The Evil Cultivation Master smirked coldly, "It seems that the Deste Dragon God Longdi has a strong interest in her after yourst battle with her."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi hummed, "This is none of your business."

    The Great Demon Lord smiled, "Since the Dragon God Longdi is interested in her, you may have her."

    The Evil Cultivation Master disyed an ugly look but there was nothing he could say because he did not dare to be insolent in the presence of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon Lord smiled wryly, "Right now, the Pangu Immortals are probably thinking that the Deste Immortals are entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to seize its soul artefact core. But what they don''t know is that the soul artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth isn''t crucial to our ns."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi nodded, "They have no idea that we''re the True Deste Gods and that our real n is to revive the Ancient Fortress in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "And that we are tapping the immortal profound energies of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to revive the Ancient Fortress." The Great Demon Lordughed. "The day that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth disappears is also the day the Ancient Fortress will finally appear."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi added with a cold smirk, "Naturally that is because the Ancient Fortress is hidden below where the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is appearing."

    The Goddess Mei was also smiling, "The Pangu Immortals have been searching for the Ancient Fortress after thest immortal war but they have no idea that our Great Demon Lord has already seized it thousands of years ago and has sent it to the Celestial Realm."

    The Great Demon Lord raised his cup to toast himself, "This cat and mouse game that we''ve waging for thousands of years is finally going toe to an end. The Pangu Immortals have no idea that I intend to turn this Celestial Realm into the Deste Realm. This realm shall be our future sovereign realm."

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth;

    Ji Yuan was now asking Shui Xisi in secret, "What happens to you? You don''t look so happy in thest past few days?"

    "Hmph! Who says I am unhappy?" Shui Xisi puffed.

    "Haha. It is all written all over your face." Ji Yuan pointed out. "Are you envious of Jingjing?"<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    This struck a painful chord in her heart.

    While she had pretended to reject Ji Yuan offer to be his consort so that she would not appear to be awkward in front of the other maidens but Yu Jingjing was actually bold enough to profess her love for Ji Yuan.

    Therefore for the past several days, she was in an unpleasant mood, especially when she saw how warmly Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were greeting Yu Jingjing as their sister consort now.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw Sisi''s ugly look. "Well, you can always marry this poor cultivator here anytime."

    Shui Xisi stepped on his foot coldly, "Who wants to marry you? Dream on!"

    Ji Yuan continued tough before he nudged her lightly on the shoulder, "Say, I feel that I am stronger than Jiajia now. Do you think that Jiajia will be in awe of my prowess the next time that we meet?"

    "She will thrash you for sure." Shui Xisi giggled.

    Ji Yuan growled. "That is very unlikely. You know, I may even be in the top 10 super cultivator list now."

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes as she chuckled at the same time, "Well, I''m in the top 10 super heretic cultivator list and so is my Sister Feifei. Why don''t you try me first?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I don''t want to hurt you."

    Shui Xisi frowned softly, "You sound like you can really defeat me."

    "I am afraid if I''ve made you cry then there is no more bang, bang for me." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Well you can try me."

    You don''t know who I am, don''t you?

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "Well, I''m not interested to fight you. I just want to beat Jiajia. Haha."

    Shui Xisi giggled even louder, "Well, don''t run to me with sorry tears on your face then."

    Ji Yuan frowned. "We shall see about this."

    "Ji Yuan¡­" All of a sudden Shui Xisi had turned solemn as she looked into his eyes, "Do you remember what I''ve told you thest time?"

    "What is it?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    "Don''t give up on my Sister Feifei if you know what is good for you."

    Ji Yuan returned her a perplexed look, "I won''t. Why will you suddenly ask me this?"

    Shui Xisi lowered her eyes to say mncholy, "I''m just reminding you¡­"

    Because my sister is the future ruler of the Immortal Realm. If you give her up then you must be the stupidest man in the entire Celestial Realm¡­

 Chapter 336 The Fallen Gods Valley (1)

    After wandering for several days, Ji Yuan and his party soone to a ce where there were many waterfalls.

    Along the way, they had battled ferocious deste beasts but the strength of their party was too strong and most of the ferocious deste beasts had quickly beaten a hasty retreat.

    <o>,m They had followed the beam of faint light in the horizon and had discovered this ce; this was where the next trial was supposed to be.</o>

    Ji Yuanughed, "This ce looks so serene. It doesn''t seem that this trial will be so dangerous."

    Feng Minyue said quietly, "I hope that we''ve all learnt the lessons from thest two trials. Even if we are saints but less than 30% of the saints actually make it through the fifth level and even less will make to through to the sixth level."

    Ling Feiyue nodded as she said angrily, "Thest two trials really make me really furious¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a jovialughter, "Are you sure you''re angry? Your voice is too gentle."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, are you really on my side?"

    "Of course I am." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "But Maiden Feng is right." Little Princess said. "I''ve almost failed thest trial as well. For this trial, we must try to be as smart as Ji Yuan and learn from his good example."

    Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue all nodded at the same time. "Agree¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially but secretly he was thinking; I was lucky only in thest round. I''ve almost failed in thest round as well.

    He quickly added righteously, "We ought to heed Maiden Feng''s advice. It is a good advice. Cautious is always good."

    All the maidens nodded as they answered together;

    "Ji Yuan is right¡­"

    "My lord is right¡­"

    "We will follow this good advice."

    After arriving at the waterfall ce, they soon saw that there were hundreds of cultivators meditating in the vicinity.

    Some of the cultivators appeared to be injured but their expressions were serene so their injuries were not because of a fight with the cultivators in the vicinity and were probably caused by the dangerous encounters by the deste monsters on their way here.

    At least this was Ji Yuan''s quick guess.

    In front stood a tall ck stele and a shimmering portal; Ji Yuan and his party knew that the trial portal had already been opened.

    They were just curious why there were so many hundreds of cultivators that were meditating outside the trial instead of taking their trial in the inside?

    Ji Yuan was never shy so he shouted loudly to them, "Why are you all here instead of inside the trial?"

    But the hundreds of cultivators purposely pretended not to hear Ji Yuan and his party.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to growl almost incoherently, "I''m such a handsome cultivator but why is it that none of the maidens here bother to take a nce at me? And why are they meditating? And why are some of them appear to be injured? Or they are just taking refuge here because it is safer around the trial zone?"

    But he did not think much about it as he marched over to touch the ck stele; as long as these cultivators do not disturb him or his party, he felt pretty much at ease. At least none of the men were staring at the heart moving veiled maidens in his party.

    Bai Qianfeng whispered to them, "These cultivators are really in meditation. It seems that they have been inspired by some insights and are in deep meditation."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he began to decipher the coded messages in the ck stele with his divine sense.<sub> </sub>

    "S Rank Trial?! The Fallen Gods Valley?" Ji Yuan muttered. This was the name of the trial.

    All the maidens were gasping when they saw that it was an S Rank Trial; they had never expected that they would encounter an S Rank Trial so soon again.

    Either they were twice lucky or twice unlucky.

    But there was also a solemn look on their countenances; an S Trial won''t be easy and moreover this is already an on-going trial.

    Bai Qianfeng''s immortal divine sense was the quickest to decipher the coded messages of the ck stele so she recited out for the benefit of everyone in her party, "The trial portal will lead the cultivators to the Fallen Gods Valley. In order to ovee this trial, the cultivators must retrieve the Fallen God Relic from the deepest chasm of the valley¡­"

    There was a perplexed look in her countenance before she continued, "Upon entering the trial, every cultivator will be given three Escape Talismans. These Escape Talismans will allow the cultivators to escape from the Fallen God Valley thrice. Upon using the talismans thrice, the cultivator will no longer be allowed to enter into the portal trial."

    Ling Feiyue asked everyone, "So, are we going into the trial or not? This is an S Rank Trial."

    "Or we can go elsewhere to find an easier trial?" Little Princess suggested.

    "I don''t understand." Ji Yuan said all of a sudden. "If this trial allows everyone to exit 3 times then why don''t these cultivators just quit the trial instead after they had ''seemingly'' run into difficulty? Why are they insisting on ''courting'' their doom?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "This is something that I do not understand as well. If something inside is so difficult as to force them to quit the trial halfway then why aren''t they quitting the trial? Instead they will rather be in deep meditation after they have exit before entering the trial."

    Shui Xisi giggled, "That is because there must be some great rewards inside the trial or else they won''t be so thick skin as to stick around here."

    She had said it a little too loud and many of the sharp ear cultivators in the vicinity actually had a reaction as they opened their eyes to stare at her.

    "Ji Yuan, what do you think about this?" Feng Minyue asked quietly.

    Yu Jingjing was also nodding as she looked at Ji Yuan.

    As a matter of fact, Ji Yuan was their de facto leader and all the other maidens were all looking at Ji Yuan to abide by his decision.

    Ji Yuan frowned softly, "I suggest that we check this trial out. If it is too hard then we can definitely quit it anytime. After all, the trial is offering us three Escape Talismans. So it can''t be too dangerous, am I right?"

    "Actually¡­" Feng Minyue said quietly, "Precisely because the trial has offered us three Exit Talismans each, this is actually a most dangerous trial. Moreover, this is also an S Rank Trial as well."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "We don''t have to achieve a ster result. If we can ovee this trial then the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be our next destination."

    Ji Yuan nodded solemnly, "Remember if it is too hard, just quit the trial. There is no need to risk your lives."

    This time he did not say any farewells or wish any of the maidens good luck; by now they had alle to a mutual understanding.

    So he merely took the first step as he marched to the shimmering portal in front, "Let''s go!"

    All the maidens nodded excitingly, "Let''s go inside!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan turned back with a sudden grin, "I love you all!"

    All the maidens were startled by Ji Yuan¡­

    The maidens were all muttering shyly, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Even Xiang Li was wowed. "When did Big Brother suddenly bes so romantic?"

    Before the rest of the maidens could react, he had suddenly entered into the trial portal with an awkward chuckle.

    He was actually thinking; since we probably won''t see one another inside the trial, I''ve better voiced out my innermost feeling before the trial first.

    Because he was feeling awkward and lest they wouldugh at him, he had quickly entered into the trial portal.

 Chapter 337 The Fallen Gods Valley (2)

    After Ji Yuan had entered into the trial portal, he found himself in a ce that was surrounded by tall treacherous mountains and the heavens above were dark, exploding with purple lightning continuously that snaked down onto the ground and shook the ground with its almighty impact.

    At the same time three beams of light appeared in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan caught the three tiny beams of light and it was turned into three Escape Talismans which he quickly stored in his spatial ring.

    Xiang Li gasped, "This ce sure looks like a scary ce¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Nothing is more scarier than my earlier confessions. I''ve thought that I would die of embarrassment earlier. Haha."

    Then he sighed softly, "But it certainly makes me feel much better after bottoming it from my heart. I must be the most shameless cultivator ever. How can I love them all at the same time¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frozen on the spot because his divine sense could suddenly sense that all the maidens in his party were behind him and were giggling.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Xiang Li was face-palming while Fairy Anyang was giggling, "This is¡­really¡­awkward!"

    Ji Yuan turned back to face the maidens as he blinked his eyes, "Erm, this isn''t a solo trial?"

    Ling Feiyue wasughing to and fro as she ced her hand on her belly, "It appears to be so!"

    "Yea, this isn''t a solo trial." Little Princess winked at him mesmerizing.

    Feng Minyue averted her eyes, "I didn''t hear anything just now. My mind is on the trial." But she could not resist disying her smiles.

    Shui Xisi was giggling nonstop, "Why didn''t you die of your embarrassment yet?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Maybe he is too thick skin to die of embarrassment." Bai Qianfeng chuckled.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Qianfeng, even you¡­"

    Only Jingjing didn''t poke fun at me¡­she is the best¡­

    "Is Ji Yuan always so funny?" Yu Jingjing serene countenance finally could not resist breaking into soft chuckles.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''ve decided to take back my praises for Jingjing¡­

    I guess that only Jiajia is the most perfect maiden for me, because she has never gossiped orughed at me¡­

    She is so too busy to gossip about me, that''s why¡­

    Ji Yuan maintained a straight face as he said, "Actually I already know that this is not a solo trial and that is why I''ve thought of this to lessen the heavy mood for this trial."

    Shui Xisi burst outughing, "Like real!"

    Ling Feiyue fell into the arms of Little Princess, "Sorry¡­I¡­I just can''t¡­stopughing¡­"

    All the other maidens were alsoughing jovially.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was perplexed; he could have sworn that his bluff was really convincing but why didn''t they believe in him?

    "You must be wondering, am I right?'' Little Princess winked at him as she showed him a green glowing pearl. "This is the profound treasure that I got for my trial reward. Whenever a cultivator is to lie in front of this Untruth Nascent Pearl, it will glow green."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This was such a godly cultivation weapon against him¡­he was totally defeated!

    "Alright, you win. I was only joking." Ji Yuan muttered.

    Again, the Untruth Nascent Pearl glowed green.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Alright, I am serious." Ji Yuan frowned. "But I truly love all of you."

    This time the Untruth Nascent Pearl did not glow.

    All the maidens were flustered as they took a forlorn look at Ji Yuan¡­

    After a while Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Since we are still in the same party, we can continue together. Haha."

    But after walking for a while, they were stupefied by the sight that was ahead of them;

    In front of them was a ck mountain wall that sketched for miles and there were thousands of cultivators that were staring at the ck mountain wall.

    Every once in a while, the purple lightning from above the dark heavens above would strike down an unfortunate cultivator, sending them stumbling down the ck mountains.

    These cultivators actually did not die but had used the Escape Talisman to exit the trial when they could not resist the impact of the purple lightning that were striking with explosive fury upon them.

    "What are they doing? Why are so many cultivators staring at the ck mountain walls?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi answered at the same time, "There seem to be writings on the ck walls and these cultivators appear to be studying it."

    Ji Yuan also had a sharp vision and he could see it. Unfortunately the writings were shrouded by thenguage of the gods; in order to decipher it, he had to touch the writings with his hands and extended his divine sense into it.

    Some genius cultivators and immortal cultivators like Bai Qianfeng will be able to decipher it with their divine sense alone but they still have to get close enough first.

    Even though Ji Yuan could see tens of thousands of cultivators scattered all over the ce but because the ck mountain walls have extended for miles, there was actually plenty of space.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he was astonished by the sight of so many cultivators that were like ants in front of him.

    He muttered, "Did we miss something?"<sub> </sub>

    Shui Xisi smiled, "As we go higher up, the numbers of worlds get increasing lesser and we will actually see an increase in the number of cultivators. But these cultivators are all genius cultivators of their celestial fraternity. Therefore we must be careful when we are dealing with them. Also, it is not surprising that some of the trials have started ahead of us."

    Feng Minyue nodded, "Actually our progress isn''t that bad already. If we''re too fast, some of the higher level trials may not even started yet and we have to wait. We may end up wasting time and time is very precious in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    "Totally agree." Bai Qianfeng nodded lightly, "Our objective is the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. There is no need for us to dwell too long on this level even if this is an S Rank Trial."

    "Right." Ji Yuanpletely agreed with them. "We should go all the way into the most interior of the Fallen Gods Valley and be done with this trial as soon as possible."

    "Yeah!" All the maidens agreed with him.

    Very soon, they had reached the ck walls mountain by following the shortest path ahead of them but they had also encountered a group of twenty cultivators who were meditating and researching thenguage of the gods on the ck walls.

    These cultivators consisted of 15 men and 5 women; the men all had a beautiful short beard.

    When they saw Ji Yuan and his party, a handsome man with a beautiful short golden beard had turned to them with a golden smile.

    His smile was really golden because Ji Yuan saw that all his teeth were golden as well.

    Ji Yuan blinked with his eyes at the dazzling sh of the beautiful golden beard cultivator just to ensure that he was not seeing things; this cultivator really had golden teeth.

    The beautiful golden beard cultivator greeted them, "Beautiful maidens, where are you from? I am Hua Yingxiong, the Prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and even Ji Yuan were startled when they had heard his title.

    Only Bai Qianfeng was not because she had never heard of him or the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire before. But even if she has heard of it before, she will not be startled because she is an immortal.

    The reason why Ji Yuan and the rest were startled was because the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire is the only Celestial Empire in the Celestial Realm. Unlike the rest of the other celestial fraternities that are fragmented, a mighty cultivator had united this celestial fraternity into a mighty celestial empire.

    Even if Ji Yuan has not heard of most of the other celestial fraternities before but he has long heard of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, the one and only celestial fraternity that has united all the celestial ns into one mighty empire under a celestial emperor.

    And this Hua Yingxiong is a mighty noble prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    Ji Yuan immediately greeted him with a friendly smile, "Haha. So you''re a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire. It is my great honor to have met you in this ce¡­"

    Hua Yingxiong raised his fingers to wave a ''No'' in front of Ji Yuan, "I''m not talking to you. A mere servant like you is not fit to talk to me. I''m talking to the beautiful maidens behind you and not to you. Are you a maiden?"

    Immediately the neen cultivators behind Hua Yingxiong were allughing jovially at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The smiles on Ji Yuan''s face were immediately wiped away as he disyed a disgruntled frown. "Friend, do you have to be so rude? We''re all cultivators of the way here."

    Hua Yingxiong replied coldly, "Who is your friend? With one look, I can tell how much you''re worth by the clothing that you''re wearing."

    Ji Yuan replied coldly, "My clothing is worth 1000 gold¡­"

    Hua Yingxiong burst out jovially withughter, "1000 gold?! Did I hear correctly? Not 1000 spirit stones or 1000 high grade spirit stones? Just my robe alone is worth a 100,000 high grade spirit stones!"

    Then he pointed at the cultivators behind him, "And none of my subordinates'' clothing are worth less than 1000 high grade spirit stones here¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were all indignant and they had all interrupted at almost the same time, "How dare you look down upon our lord!"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "You''ve better apologized fast!"

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes as she whispered almost incoherently, "I really think that Ji Yuan should get a new clothing¡­"

    Ji Yuan pulled his robe to straighten it as he frowned, "What is wrong with my clothing?!"

    Hua Yingxiongughed, "Clothing makes all the differences in a cultivator. For example, my clothing is able to enhance my profound animus, is impervious to most divine swords and it can even weave itself almost instantaneously. So what about yours?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder for a while before he grinned, "I can disrobe myself with minimum effort and I can save my strength for my maidens on the bed."

    Hua Yingxiong and everyone: ¡­

    There were many flustered looks behind the curtain veils of the maidens in Ji Yuan''s party as they muttered silently; this is so lewd Ji Yuan, how can you say something like this to someone else¡­

    Hua Yingxiong hummed coldly, "Every trade has a patron saint. But it seems like you''re the patron saint of the beggars and the clowns."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Are you picking on me?"

    Ji Yuan asked with great annoyance now.

    Hua Yingxiongughed, "So what if I am? So what if I am not? What can you do to me?"

    All of a sudden a purple lightning had descended from the heavens.

    With a mighty shout, Hua Yingxiong had suddenly caught the purple lightning with his bare hand and extinguished it with a mighty explosive shockwave!

    Immediately he had disyed his profound strength as a peaked great saint and his profound strength was mighty!

    Even Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes when he saw Hua Yingxiong''s extraordinary disy; this Hua Yingxiong is definitely a super cultivator!

    Hua Yingxiong coldly smirked, "In the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, we have long eliminated the rivalries and secrets of the celestial ns. As a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, I''ve ess to the best cultivation resources as well as to the secrets of the top cultivation profound arts."

    Then he pointed at the cultivators behind him, "My saints and great saints here are stronger than the rest of the cultivators in the Celestial Realm because the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire ensures that the genius cultivators within our celestial fraternity has ess to the best cultivation profound arts. Every one of them is equaled to the top 10 super cultivators in the rest of the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes; did he just offend twenty super cultivators?!

    Just as Ji Yuan was rapidly thinking of his next course of action, Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. "How insolent! How dare you to be rude to my lord here. If my lord today don''t teach you a lesson today, you will think that the other celestial fraternities are only to be belittled by you. Let me tell you, you''re wrong! My lord here is a Sword Saint!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He has not yet calcted his odds of winning. Moreover this is just a spat of words. There is no need to be so serious¡­

    But he found himself saying, "Yea, if you don''t kneel and apologize to me, you''re not going to leave this ce today."

    Hua Yingxiong turned to the cultivators behind him tough out jovially, "You''ve heard him, am I right? It is not I who challenge him but he is the one that is challenging me. As a prince, I ought to be gracious to his challenge. Hahaha."

    Then he added with a cold smirk, "Sword Saint? Did I forget to mention that I''ve killed no less than ten sword saints from the other celestial fraternities here already."

 Chapter 338 The Fallen Gods Valley (3)

    Hundreds of cultivators from the ck walls of the mountains were now looking in the direction of Ji Yuan and Hua Yingxiong; they could all sense that a fight was about to start soon.

    And many of the cultivators were secretly hoping that these two groups would massacre one another while they sat on the fence to watch¡­

    Ji Yuan was quiet for a moment; he did not think that his odds of winning exceeded fifty percent in this case. It was because he had just witnessed how this Hua Yingxiong had caught the purple lightning in his bare hand and extinguished it with his profound strength.

    This was something that he could not aplish. He had remembered oveing his purple lightning tribtion with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue back then. At that time, he was only an initial saint while Ling Feiyue was a great saintess already.

    Even though Ling Feiyue was a great saintess back then, she still dare not catch the purple lightning with her bare hand.

    But this Hua Yingxiong actually can. Therefore he is not lying about being a super cultivator.

    Ji Yuan''s profound arts were mostly sword energies and it was weaker than the purple lightning. If this Hua Yingxiong can extinguish the purple lightning then he can also easily neutralize Ji Yuan''s profound sword energies as well.

    However Ji Yuan could tell that the other 19 cultivators that were behind Hua Yingxiong were actually not super cultivators even though he could not see their profound animus yet, mainly because their airs were somewhatcking.

    Because this Hua Yingxiong is a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire and that these cultivators were all wearing the robes of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, this Hua Yingxiong must have met them on this level and they have grouped together; it was quite well-known that the cultivators from the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire tended to group together and they followed a hierarchy should they meet in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan said, "I believe that I''ve not introduced myself yet¡­"

    Hua Yingxiongughed coldly, "I already know that you''re from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. As for your name, do I really need to know? I may forget about your name in the next instant."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hua Yingxiong continued tough, "You''re just a beardless cultivator. In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, it is shameful to be without a beard. Either you''vemitted some heresy and you''ve got your beard removed forcefully or your cultivation foundation is weak and hence you''ve lost your beard during your golden celestial transformation."

    Ji Yuan frowned; this Hua Yingxiong has just insulted his deceased beloved beautiful beard¡­

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, to insult a cultivator''s beard is a heresy crime by itself and it is the highest insult that can be hurled upon a cultivator.

    The other celestial fraternities have long heard of the odd culture of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and if they see a male cultivator from the Deste Celestial Fraternity that they can bully, they will not hesitate to insult his beard.

    When Hua Yingxiong saw Ji Yuan''s ugly look, he knew that he had provoked him.

    So he began tough jovially, purposely shing his golden teeth, his ten golden spatial rings on his fingers and straightened his glorious golden robe.

    All of a sudden he shed his divine sword; a celestial-step divine sword was suddenly unsheathed like a brilliant sun in the dark skies.

    The hundreds of cultivators that were watching from afar were all gasping with envious; a celestial-step divine sword is something that they can only see in their dreams!

    "How about that?" Hua Yingxiong grinned. "A poor pleasant must surely be in awe of my divine sword."

    There was a sh of coldness in Ji Yuan''s golden eyes before he grinned, "It looks like you''re just an uncultured cultivator. Wealthy yes but youck culture."

    Hua Yingxiongughed, "I am uncultured?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "A superior man of culture like you should at least allow me some free strokes to ready myself, am I right? Or else even if you''re a great saint but you''re just an inferior great saint."

    Hua Yingxiong frowned, "If you want me to give you some leeway, why don''t you say so directly?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I didn''t say it but you''ve said it."

    Hua Yingxiong hummed coldly as he raised three of his fingers up, "Very well then, I shall give you the benefit of thirty strokes."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Thirty strokes? That is just too wonderful. I was actually expecting only a measly three strokes.  You''re very generous indeed!"

    "Is that so?" Hua Yingxiong wasughing jovially as well. "Tell you what, I will not only give you the benefit of thirty strokes but I will not move from where I am standing here. Go on, do your best against me and I promise you that I won''t retaliate against you¡­"

    All of a sudden the smiles on his face were wiped clean when Ji Yuan had suddenly took out two divine swords; one saint-step divine sword and one immortal-step divine sword. Moreover Ji Yuan''s divine swords were glowing brilliantly with his divine harmony.

    Hua Yingxiong: ¡­

    Not only was Hua Yingxiong startled by Ji Yuan''s sudden disy of his divine swords but the hundreds of cultivators along the ck cliffs were all bbergasted with disbelief¡­

    "He has two superior grade divine swords?!"

    "He must be wealthiest cultivator in this trial¡­"

    "He is from the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "How is it possible?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I wonder if the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire can afford a saint-step divine sword?"

    Hua Yingxiong: ¡­

    Any immortal-step divine sword is already priceless. And a saint-step divine sword is priceless beyond priceless.

    "I wonder if your robe is really impervious against my divine swords." Ji Yuan grinned. "Hold on there while I take aim at you. Thirty strokes you just say. Haha."

    All of a sudden Hua Yingxiong''s almost dropped his jaws and he had almost taken a step backward when he saw that there were two sword spirits manifesting on his opponent''s fore hands.

    Many of the cultivators nearby were all gasping with disbelief as they simply could not believe what they were already seeing¡­<sub> </sub>

    "Two sword spirits?!"

    "Look at his profound aura now¡­"

    "If I''m not wrong then he is no ordinary sword saint but a super sword saint!"

    "A super sword saint?"

    "There is actually a super sword saint state of divinity?"

    "Cultivators that can be sword saints are people that can merge their selfpletely into their profound sword arts to deliver lethal strikes against the profound animus of their opponents¡­"

    "I''ve heard that if a sword saint is able to reach the super sword saint state of divinity, their sword intentions will be visible¡­"

    Hua Yingxiong had broken into cold sweat as he could feel the sword intentions that hade from Ji Yuan even before the strikes have arrived. Originally, he had stood a higher chance of winning but now he really could not dare to say loud now because he has given his opponent thirty free strokes to attack and a handicap not to move from where he was now standing.

    All of a sudden he felt himself reaching for the Escape Talisman¡­

    But all of a sudden heughed aloud as he smiled broadly at Ji Yuan, "Friend, I was only testing you! You''ve proven worthy to be my friend. Hahaha. So what is your name?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Who is your friend? Isn''t it toote to know my name now?"

    But Hua Yingxiong continued tough jovially, "Like I say, I was only testing you. From afar, I know that you are a dragon among men and a son of the heavens!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Oh really?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Hua Yingxiong nodded as he took off his golden robe as he walked to Ji Yuan, "In order to show my sincerity, I shall give you my battle garb."

    Ji Yuan smiled at the glittering battle robe, "It is really for me? In that case, I shall not decline your kind offer. Haha."

    Hua Yingxiongughed as he took out a golden token to give Ji Yuan, "Not only that, from today onward, you''re also a honorable knight of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire as well as an honorable citizen of the my Golden Majesty Celestial Empire!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Woot. You''re indeed very generous. Haha."

    Hua Yingxiong extended his hands to bow respectfully, "You''re not only just a friend. From today onward, you''re my brother as well! Erm, may I know the name of my brother here?"

    <o>,m "Ji Yuan. Haha."</o>

    "Great! Brother Ji Yuan! You can address me as your Brother Hua Yingxiong directly. You can call me by my name even. In front of Brother Ji Yuan here, there is no prince or whatever so!"

    "Haha. Brother Hua Yingxiong! But who is the elder and who is the junior?"

    Hua Yingxiong answered righteously, "Of course it is my Brother Ji Yuan here! It is my great honor to befriend a brother like you in this trial here."

    "Haha¡­"

    "Hahaha¡­"

    All of a sudden, all the cultivators including Ji Yuan''s party were all feeling that these two cultivators are both too fake and too shameless¡­

    Ji Yuan naturally knows that Hua Yingxiong was faking his real intentions but he did not want to waste his profound strength to fight a super cultivator like Hua Yingxiong.

    He knows that if he presses Hua Yingxiong too hard, he may well retaliate even before he could get ready his thirty strokes.

    "What a pity that there is no fight. I''ve been waiting in vain." A deep voice had suddenly said out of nowhere.

    This caused Ji Yuan, Hua Yingxiong and all the others who were nearby to be startled because a dark robe cultivator with a mask had suddenly appeared near to them and they had not detected his presence!

    Ji Yuan was startled because he had also recognized the intruder as the Death God Mingwang!

    Hua Yingxiong was back to his cocky self as he ordered one of his subordinates, "What a pest! Get rid of him!"

    Immediately a cultivator behind him shed to attack the dark robe cultivator with the mask.

    But before everyone could blink their eyes, the dark robe cultivator with the mask had taken out his dark scythe and a profound energy de had slice through to his attacker and had sent him flying through the solid ground loudly with a long streak of dust!

    Hua Yingxiong was startled; it is because that unfortunate subordinate is actually a great saint and one of his best fighters¡­

    Even Ji Yuan was startled by the profound strength that he had just witnessed; this Death God Mingwang was much stronger than the one that he had fought thest time¡­

    The Death God Mingwangughed behind his mask, "You must be wondering why. I am naturally not a clone and this is the real me."

    Ji Yuan gripped his divine swords tightly; a major battle is about to unfold very soon¡­

    All of a sudden his hands gripped even tighter because he had suddenly noticed that the Death God Mingwang was staring lecherous at his Qianfeng''s bosoms and butt!

 Chapter 339 The Fallen Gods Valley (4)

    Ji Yuan was now staring coldly at the Death God Mingwang. Without a doubt, he knew that the Death God Mingwang was here to take away his life.

    But luckily, he had just made a new ''Brother'' out of Hua Yingxiong. With more than twenty top cultivators supporting him, he felt a little confident now.

    He was even thinking; with hundreds of cultivators that are here, possibly even thousands in the vicinity, if you dare to disy your deste might then you''re dead meat.

    Cultivators with the deste profound force are an enemy to all the cultivators in the Celestial Realm. At least, ording to most ounts since cultivators with the deste profound force are rarely encountered.

    "Qianfeng, Sisi. I need your support. The rest of you step back." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    Ling Feiyue said unhappily.  "I can also help¡­"

    "No but!" Ji Yuan raised his voice to say firmly.

    Ling Feiyue was startled and so were the other maidens; they had never seen Ji Yuan raised his voice before and this was the first.

    Even if the maidens have frequently face-pped him, he will often maintain his good-nature smiles.

    This time Ji Yuan was really, really very serious.

    "Count on me." Sisi replied with equally solemnness.

    Bai Qianfeng said, "Ji Yuan is right. This foe here is a most dangerous foe."

    But she was rolling her golden eyes to Ling Feiyue to indicate to her that she can be a good support to Ji Yuan when necessary.

    As she had said that, she had also released her two spirit pets and they had transformed into their true size, two seventh rank profound beasts, stunning all the onlookers!

    The very reason why Ji Yuan had wanted the rest of the maidens to step back was because he knows how dangerous this Death God Mingwang is; he had almost lost his life in his previous battle against him and he also knows that the Death God Mingwang is able to disy his profound might to the ninth cultivation realm. Moreover this is not a clone.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi are not only peaked great saintesses but they are also super cultivators. Ji Yuan knows that they are not weak. Moreover he also knows that Sisi still have several hidden trump cards, including an immortal-step divine sword.

    He doesn''t know that Sisi actually has a saint-step divine sword.

    As for Hua Yingxiong, he was staring nkly at the Death God Mingwang''s ck scythe and was shocked; this is an immortal-step divine weapon!

    Yet, another influential cultivator with a lofty background has just appeared¡­

    Today must be his most unlucky day¡­

    The Death God Mingwang said coldly behind his mask as he looked into Ji Yuan''s direction, "You''re just lucky enough to escape from my sword arrays thest time. Unfortunately, I''ve yourbat profile now and you won''t be twice lucky against me."

    He pointed at the maidens behind Ji Yuan, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue from the Spirit Blue Moon Sect, Little Princess from the Evil Cultivation Pce or should I say formerly¡­"

    Then he paused at Shui Xisi as though he could see her behind her curtain veils before saying coldly, "You are worthy to fight me¡­"

    He stopped at Bai Qianfeng again, "You''re most worthy."

    Hua Yingxiong bowed with his hands to Ji Yuan and the Death God Mingwang, "I am most unworthy here. Since the two of you are old acquaintances, I shall take my leave now. I wish everyone the best of luck for your trials. Farewell!"

    Without waiting for Ji Yuan and the Death God Mingwang to respond, Hua Yingxiong and his group had quickly taken leave!

    Ji Yuan was startled¡­

    This Hua Yingxiong is full of hot air and totally unreliable. So much for this new ''brother''.

    He was now getting anxiety attacks as he put on a brave front, "Hehe! I don''t need any cannon fodders or someone else to get into my way here. Say, how about a man to man fight?"

    He did not want to risk his beloveds and that was why he was now trying to divert the fight to a one on one.

    "Ji Yuan, no!"

    "We will fight alongside with you!"

    "My lord, we will not ept this decision of yours!"

    All the maidens were panicky saying and they had all unsheathed their divine swords in a great show of solidarity!

    The Death God Mingwangughed coldly, "Even though I want to fight with you today but today isn''t a good time. How about we have a short truce just for this trial instead?"

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to taunt him with, ''are you a coward? Are you scared?'' But he quickly restrained himself lest it backfired upon him.

    Instead he asked curiously, "Why? You''re giving up such a good opportunity to kill me?"

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly, "That is because you have the Escape Talismans. I don''t want to waste my strength and time to kill someone who can escape in the next instant."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; he was actually thinking of using the Escape Talisman if things go south¡­

    "However there is a condition to my truce. I want to have a little chat with one of your friends here." The Death God Mingwang said as he looked at Bai Qianfeng at the same time.

    Ji Yuan clenched his grips on his divine swords, "You can say it here." But silently he was cursing, how dare you even have any designs on my woman. And his fighting spirit rose to its peak.

    No one can touch his women while he is around! Not ever!

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly as he turned away before his image vanished in the dark mountains, "It is done."

    "So fast?!" Ji Yuan was startled. He did not even see a single conversation that was being exchanged¡­<sub> </sub>

    But all of a sudden he saw that the lips of Bai Qianfeng were moving and he realized that they hadmunicated via the Divine Whispering Profound Skill Art.

    Ji Yuan turned to Bai Qianfeng to mutter weakly, "What did he say to you?"

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "He says he knows who I am. And also asks why I chose to assist the Pangu Immortals."

    Ji Yuan frowned suspiciously, "That is all?"

    Bai Qianfeng quietly looked at Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue, "I am actually a Deste Immortal Cultivator. My true name is the Abyssal Null Goddess. He seems to already know that I''ve lost my deste strength and gained the righteous strength instead. He offers to help me to restore my deste strength."

    Yu Jingjing was startled; she has not known that this ''Sister Qianfeng'' here will have such an extraordinary background!

    The celestials have studied the arts of cultivation so that they will one day, ascend to the Immortal Realm as Immortals. But here, is one living immortal that walks among the celestials.

    As for Feng Minyue, she was less shocked because she had already more or less guessed it; when Bai Qianfeng has tamed the seventh rank deste profound dragon, she already had her suspicions.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he muttered panicky, "Don''t¡­"

    "I didn''t agree to it and he says that he will let me think for a little while longer." Bai Qianfeng said slowly.

    What she did not say is that the Death God Mingwang had offered her a tempting offer; he will spare Ji Yuan if she is toe with him as a Deste Immortal.

    Eon Firmament Mountains, in a white cave;

    A blue veiled maiden was now looking at the shimmering portal ahead of her; she is Xia Jiajia.

    Behind him was Diviner Mo Ming and his elders, Venerable Elder Ling Fang who had been invited to witness the Dream Trial and a group of astonishing maidens; Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Ling Tianshui, Xue Qianxue, Zhao Songjin, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan and Sword Saintess Yuluo.

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang and Ling Tianshui were in awe of the Mo n; this was their very first visit to the Mo n and the Eon Firmament Mountains is considered to be the consecratednd of the Orthodox Fraternity. Normally they would never have a chance to visit this ce.

    But Venerable Elder Ling Fang had paid 500 million high grade spirit stones to sponsor Jiajia aka the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. Therefore he had asked for a chance to witness the Dream Trial personally for himself.

    Diviner Mo Ming said solemnly, "Are you sure that you want to take the ''Cunning and Ruthless Character'' setting?"

    Jiajia smiled, "If Ji Yuan can ovee it, I believe I will be able to."

    Xue Qianxue smiled weakly, "That is because he has a misguided motivation."

    At the mention of Ji Yuan, all the maidens were all smiling; Ji Yuan often did the most unexpected things.

    "Mistress, I know that I can''t sway your decision but I wish you all the best." Hua Wuwu sighed.

    Hua Baiyue bit her lips, "How I wish I can go inside the Dream Trial with you. We''re so useless, we can''t apany you or to aid you."

    Jiajiaughed gently as she pulled Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu into her embrace, "The two of you have already helped me more than enough throughout the years, especially with Ji Yuan."

    Then she whispered, "And you''ve even lost your chastity to this badass."

    Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu began to giggle all of a sudden.

    When they had thought of Ji Yuan, they could not resist a soft chuckle; they had pretended to be his enemy when they had first met him because they did not want him to know that they had been following him since the very start and also to connect the dots that Jiajia was actually the Divine Pce Master.

    But after being in Ji Yuan''spany for a while, they could not resist his badass charms.

    Hua Wuwu held onto Jiajia tightly as she sniffed, "Mistress, you will surely revive Xiao Ruan. We''ve faith in you."

    Hua Baiyue was also nodding mncholy, "And you will restore your cultivation core as well."

    Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Zhao Songjin and Saintess Yuluo were all nodding with encouraging eyes.

    "That''s right!" They chorused together.

    Jiajia smiled gently as she turned to walk into the shimmering portal.

    As she entered into the shimmering portal, she giggled lovingly. "I wonder who is smarter. The trial protagonist or me."

    Diviner Mo Ming disyed a heavy sigh after Jiajia had entered into the portal. "Other than that badass good-for-nothing cultivator Ji Yuan, I can''t remember another person that has ever passed the most difficult setting."

    Venerable Elder Ling Fang smiled weakly, "She has better passed or we can''t get her aid to ascend to the Immortal Realm."

    Diviner Mo Ming stroked his long beard as he said almost incoherently, "Yea¡­and the 33 immortal fairies¡­"

    All of a sudden Xue Qianxue gave a soft cry that caused everyone to look at her panicky.

    The maidens had all quickly surrounded Xue Qianxue who had broken into cold sweat.

    Saintess Yuluo gasped panicky to Diviner Mo Ming, "She is giving birth soon. Quick! Prepare hot water and towels!"

 Chapter 340 The Fallen Gods Valley (5)

    All the maidens were delighted that the Death God Mingwang was gone now and they were extremely relieved; not only Ji Yuan but Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing had no confidence after they had witnessed the terrifying profound aura of the Death God Mingwang.

    Only Ji Yuan remained extremely solemn.

    "What is wrong?" Shui Xisi giggled. "Didn''t you just hear what he has said? We have a truce!"

    Yu Jingjing was smiling too, "If I were him, I would not choose to fight you in this trial. This is the right decision. After all, we can always use the Escape Talismans and we can use it three times!"

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were both nodding delightfully.

    But there was a quiet look on Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng countenance instead.

    Ji Yuan solemnly said, "It is not over yet."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Why do you say so?"

    Ji Yuan sighed, "Did you see how he is able to approach us without alerting any of us? Maybe he is just lurking in the shadows, just waiting for us to finish our Escape Talismans in the trial."

    All of a sudden all the rest of the maidens were solemn, joining Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue.

    Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue had already thought of this earlier¡­

    Ji Yuan continued with a heavy sigh. "Moreover, I''ve just shed my divine swords in the open and there are thousands of eyes looking down on me. The Death God Mingwang may be just waiting for the other cultivators to attack us instead. If there is one super cultivator like that Hua Yingxiong, there are bounded to be others too. The cultivators on the fifth level are all strong cultivators and none of them are the weak ones."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly and she said with trembling voice, "With so many cultivators around, we are bounded to finish our Escape Talismans very fast¡­"

    Shui Xisi was also gasping with a sudden realization. "We may be able to use the Escape Talisman but we can''t recover our profound strength¡­"

    "Not only that," Little Princess interrupted with shock. "He may be just waiting for us outside the trial after we have used the Escape Talisman."

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "And he may have already set up a sword formation to replicate a clone of himself outside the trial. When I am forced to use the Escape Talisman, even his clone will be able to kill me in my weaken state. Yes, we may have a truce inside the trial but he has never promised me that he won''t kill me while I am outside."

    Yu Jingjing was staring in disbelief, "Surely not, am I right? Surely the Death God Mingwang won''t be able to think so many steps ahead?"

    "Beloved Jingjing, you''re wrong. We happen to be dealing with a ''Most Cunning and Powerful'' foe." Ji Yuan replied solemnly. "In my celestial fraternity, there are many smart opponents that will plot against one another."

    He could not resist adding, "Unlike the MCs in cultivation stories that can always predict their opponents'' moves but this is a real cultivation world where your opponents are capable of hundreds of plots simultaneous. The hardest part will be to guess their real plot. This is difficult because we are not them and it is very hard to guard against a dagger on the back."

    "He is talking about Jiajia." Ling Feiyue giggled all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Sorry, I can''t resist that." Ling Feiyue looked a little sheepish as she was the only maiden tough at such a solemn moment like this.

    She quickly took out a dozen profound pills to give to Ji Yuan, "This is for you, my lord."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared at the high level replenishing profound pills that Ling Feiyue had just given to him. These were all very expensive replenishing profound pills!

    Howe he did not know that Ling Feiyue has such a treasure trove of replenishing profound pills?

    But before he could react, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had all put dozens more replenishing profound pills into his hands.

    Ji Yuan stared at the dozens of replenishing profound pills; these maidens are too rich, too rich!

    He frowned, "You do know that I can''t possibly take all these replenishing profound pills at the same time, do you? Not only there is a diminishing effect but it will also stunt my cultivation strength and it may even be harmful to my cultivation core¡­"

    "Return to us then¡­"

    "Sorry, we have given you too many¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is right¡­"

    "We are just too eager to aid our lord¡­"

    "When he takes five masculine profound pills at the same time, he didn''t even think of his stunt cultivation strength and cultivation core¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly interrupted them with an impish grin as he quickly put the replenishing profound pills into his spatial ring, "However, I really appreciate this. Haha."

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "He may say he doesn''t want but he actually wants it."

    "Yea. He is too shameless." Little Princess nodded.<sub> </sub>

    But Ji Yuan pretended not to hear anything; he is like a stone statue now and a stone statue can be quite shameless because the skin can really be solid thick.

    "Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "He is back to normal again¡­"

    "Yea." Shui Xisi smiled.

    "Sister Qianfeng, are you alright?" Little Princess suddenly asked; she had noticed that Qianfeng had not been talking since earlier.

    Even Ji Yuan could sense that something was wrong. "Are you alright, Qianfeng? Actually that Death God Mingwang is just full of hot air. I can surely defeat him. Haha."

    But Qianfeng had walked away as she said quietly, "Ji Yuan is always thinking of the mostplicated plots against him. More often than not, he is often wrong. We don''t have to worry about the Death God Mingwang."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Qianfeng, are you really alright? Why is it that I sense that something is amiss here? What are you thinking? Surely you''re not thinking about epting the conditions of the Death God Mingwang?

    But he pretended tough, "Qianfeng is right. I am just overthinking things. Haha."

    All the other maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately shed next to Qianfeng as he began to show off his new golden robe, "Qianfeng, what do you think about my new robe?"

    He grinned, "This is a million high grade spirit stones robe, is almost impervious to most divine weapons and even whippings."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng muttered, "You sound like this is the first thing that you have worn something like this."

    "Indeed it is my first time and the feeling is really wonderful." Ji Yuanughed shamelessly. "Just this robe alone I can buy the entire Five Heavens Peaks. Haha."

    Then he grinned, "Qianfeng, you''re so beautiful today."

    "Only today? What about yesterday or tomorrow?" Qianfeng hummed coldly.

    There were choruses ofughter thate from the other maidens when they had heard her.

    JI Yuan muttered weakly, "My Qianfeng is always beautiful." Then he chuckled. "But I don''t know if my Qianfeng will be beautiful tomorrow because she seems to be unhappy today."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "Why don''t you spend more of your free time to examine these ck walls instead of chatting up on me?" She pointed at the ck walls.

    Ji Yuan saw that Qianfeng had already walked to the nearest ck walls and was already examining it as they chatted along the way.

    He replied cheekily, "Do I need to when I''ve my Qianfeng here to decipher the ck walls? And what is so interesting about these ck walls anyway? It is not like these ck walls contain any cultivation profound arts¡­"

    "These ck walls are all cultivation profound arts¡­" Shui Xisi had gasped out of a sudden from behind them.

    "Not only that, these ck walls contain many of the intricate mysteries of cultivation." Feng Minyue was also gasping. "I''ve never seen or heard anything like this previously."

    Little Princess added, "It is no wonder that these cultivators are all crowding all over this ck mountain¡­"

    As she said that, several shes of purple lightning had rained down and had struck several more cultivators on the ck mountains; some cultivators were able to tank it, some had used their Escape Talisman.

    Yu Jingjing said with a sudden realization, "So those cultivators that are outside the trial, they are actually contemting over the mysteries of these ck walls. It''s no wonder they have such ackluster interest when we''ve first appeared."

    Ling Feiyue was in awe as she looked at the ck walls mountain that sketched for tens of miles and her lips were trembling, "This whole mountain is a treasure trove¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he took a look around and he saw that the thousands of cultivators on the ck walls seemed to chant silently like zombies; breakthrough, breakthrough, secrets, secrets, immortality, immortality¡­

    Ling Feiyue was smiling excitingly, "This portion of the ck walls contains all the higher mysteries of cultivation in regards to the meridian channels. It may not be useful to me yet but it will certainly have its uses especially when I will be ascending to the Immortal Realm in the future. Maybe I can even find a breakthrough solution to my Six Realms Divine Art¡­"

    "Look what I''ve found here¡­the Master Level of the Absolute Spirits¡­"

    "The Million shes Sword Art¡­this supreme sword art is lost for a very long time¡­it is actually here¡­"

    "The Profound Art of Ultimate Body Strengthening¡­"

    All the other maidens except for Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng were frantically examining the nearby ck walls now¡­

 Chapter 341 The Fallen Gods Valley (6)

    Shui Xisi gasped excitingly, "The bottom ck walls are actually the foundation knowledge. If we climb higher, we may be able to receive more advance knowledge!"

    Yu Jingjing beamed with excitement, "You''re¡­right¡­"

    Just as all the maidens were reading the ck walls excitingly with their divine senses, Ji Yuan had suddenly pretended to cough loudly.

    "Everyone," he said. "We should continue our way!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Why? This is such an opportunity to discover the secrets of our opponents'' profound arts as well as to improve upon our own cultivation knowledge."

    Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were all smiling as they nodded in agreement with Ling Feiyue.

    Only Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng had a more neutral look.

    Feng Minyue had long retired and she actually could not be bothered to cultivate anymore.

    As for Bai Qianfeng, the intricate cultivation knowledge here was inferior to the immortal knowledge that she had possessed and hence she was uninterested.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "These cultivation knowledge here are mostly some intricate forms. Once we found some interesting sword arts, Ji Yuan won''t want to move."

    "That is because he is weak in his external and internal profound arts." Ling Feiyue giggled.

    Little Princess winked at him, "How about I give you my spot here? This Million shes Sword Art looks rather interesting."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned. "I''m serious about we get our butts moving."

    With a quiet solemn look, he said. "Do you think these profound arts here are something that you can learn in a year or two? The more profound it is, the more time it requires and it may even take several centuries."

    Then he pointed at the distant cultivators that were studying the ck walls above the mountains, "These cultivators are all trying to scan the profound arts rapidly with their divine senses as they move higher up. But let me ask you; what is the point of that if you don''t have a solid foundation? Or what is the point of that when you can only learn a profound art halfway before you will be struck down by the lightning?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Maybe we can even find a profound art or two toplement our existing profound arts and we may even be inspired to gain a breakthrough."

    Ji Yuan answered solemnly, "Feiyue, we don''t even have one week or one month here because we don''t even know how long we may take for the higher up levels. Forget about it."

    He paused for a while to look into the eyes of all the maidens, "We may have Three Talismans now but I can tell you that it is risky to even use any of them. The longer we stay around here, the more riskier it will be for all of us."

    Finally he took a deep look at Ling Feiyue because she was the unofficial leader of the maidens; all the maidens respect her because officially she is his official main consort.

    Ling Feiyue returned a few guilty nces at Ji Yuan before she nodded, "My Lord Ji Yuan is right. We ought to move on. This area is only a small part of the trial and we may still have a long way to go before we can even retrieve the Fallen God Relic."

    Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were muttering soft protests. "But this¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "In the past when I was taking a trial with Ji Yuan, he had also ignored a room full of cultivation arts and he has even given me the True Sacred Saint Profound Art¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Yu Jingjing was gasping with shock, "The True Sacred Saint Profound Art! He doesn''t want it?!"

    She had suddenly remembered seeing Ling Feiyue and Little Princess disying their golden cores during the battle arena when they were still rivals. But she did not know that their golden cores were from the True Sacred Saint Profound Art and was given by Ji Yuan.

    It was still possible for very powerful cultivators, especially the super cultivators to form their golden cores even without the True Sacred Saint Profound Art so she did not link it with the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    "At that time Ji Yuan had chosen an easier profound art to master rather than a more difficult one which he can never master." Ling Feiyue smiled.

    Then she looked at Bai Qianfeng, "Ji Yuan is right. The True Sacred Profound Art is actually rubbish in my hands because I can''t even form the golden core with it because my cultivation foundation is too weak even though I am a great saintess already. But luckily for Little Princess and I, we have Sister Qianfeng here to guide us."

    Little Princess also had a look of guilt in her expressions. "Sister Feiyue is right. Also, there are too many profound arts in this ce. We may end up being distracted by the multitude of profound arts too."

    Even when she was saying it, there were many cultivators that were hopping from the ck cliffs to another. Many of the cultivators had even broken into fights as they battled for the profound secrets of the ck walls.

    Feng Minyue smiled, "I vote for Ji Yuan''s decision too. It is a wise one."

    When Ji Yuan heard Feng Minyue''s praises for him, there was a burning joy in his heart.

    Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing had a reluctant look before they nodded as well.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw Shui Xisi''s expressions. "Do you really have to think so hard when you''ve already so many superior profound arts?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "The more, the merrier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But he quickly turned to Qianfeng to ask, "Qianfeng, how about you?"

    Qianfeng replied nonchntly, "I will follow my lord, naturally."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Then this is settled."

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "Ji Yuan, do you have a n? You seem to have one. Do you mind sharing with us?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course I''ve a n but I am afraid that I can''t share it now."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    "It isn''t because I don''t trust any one of you." Ji Yuan smiled gently. "But the walls here have many ears. We have to be exercising our most extreme caution on our toes."

    Ji Yuan does have a n; No one shall green him and he intends to get out of this ce quickly. In this aspect, not even the millions of profound arts in this ce can tempt him.

    He was even cursing loudly in his heart; Screw you Death God Mingwang!

 Chapter 342 The Fallen Gods Valley (7)

    The dark heavens were raining dozens of purple lightning onto the ck walls mountains, catching dozens of unlucky cultivators.

    There were actually tens of thousands of cultivators in sight as Ji Yuan and his party moved deeper into the mountains. Most of these cultivators were like ants for the ck walls mountains were vast in size.

    Ji Yuan had expected that some of the cultivators would being down for him because they may have seen his saintly and immortal divine swords. But to his surprise, he had no such encounter so far.

    Most of them were too engrossed in their divine sense readings on the ck walls of the mountains that they could not bother about Ji Yuan. Moreover Ji Yuan was in a big group and most of them were in a smaller group.

    Also, even though these cultivators may be very far away from Ji Yuan but some of them had heard Hua Yingxiong proiming Ji Yuan as a brother and they did not want to offend the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    At the same time, they saw that Ji Yuan had a beautiful 1 million high grade spirit stones golden robe that could weaken most of their profound arts except the most powerful. Therefore they would rather give up an opportunity for a saintly divine sword because they knew that they never have such luck in the first ce to hold one.

    Even if they could hold one, they cannot promise that they can hold it for long against the other cultivators in the vicinity and these cultivators are all strong cultivators.

    Therefore most of them had allowed Ji Yuan to pass through right under their very noses.

    But Ji Yuan was not feeling too happy at the moment because their progress was really slow.

    As they trekked through the mountains to try a way into the interior of the Fallen Gods Valley, Ji Yuan was muttering bitterly. "Our progress is really too slow. Even a tortoise can walk faster than us."

    There was a reason why he wasining about this;

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing were all rubbing their fingers on the ck walls as they moved along the way.

    Ji Yuan knew that they were inspecting the ck walls with their divine senses and hence they could not move fast.

    There were reluctant looks on their countenances for every step that they had taken.

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "There are dangerous lightning above us. If we move too fast then we may be a target for the purple lightning that is above us."

    "Totally agree!" Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing giggled at the same time.

    Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were looking weakly at them; obvious they knew that they were purposely dying the progression as the vast cultivation knowledge that were presented here was really too tempting.

    Moreover these ck walls were everywhere on the mountains!

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng said with a perplexed look, "Actually the cultivation knowledge here seems to have a w."

    Everyone: ???

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "I don''t seem to see any ws¡­"

    "I got lucky." Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "I happen to know one of the profound arts here pretty well. Take this Cherry Blossoms Heart Intricacy Form here for example. I''ve spend a few thousand years to perfect it and I know this intricacy form like the back of my hand. The reason why I know it has a w is because I''ve spent several thousands in the past to correct its ws."

    Actually Qianfeng was also scanning the ck walls of the cliffs; it is just that unlike the others, she doesn''t need to touch it to cast her divine sense into it so her actions were not so obvious.

    Everyone was muttering, "A few thousand years¡­"

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to ask Qianfeng what her age really was when Xiang Li chided him, "Never ask a maiden about her true age if you wanna live."

    Ji Yuanughed silently to Xiang Li, "Haha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang was also muttering to Ji Yuan and Xiang Li, "It is just a mere few thousand years. She isn''t that old."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He smiled weakly; even though a celestial is considered long livedpared to the mortals butpared to the immortals, their life-span is not worth mentioning¡­

    Bai Qianfeng continued, "Even though the w is just 1% at this level for this intricacy form but it is not noticeable at all. But if you have 1% w for every level then you may even need a lifetime to correct the wrong practice. Moreover I think the w is there on purpose, to mislead the cultivators."

    Ji Yuan and all the others were startled, "On purpose? To mislead the cultivators?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded quietly, "Because the ws are hidden intentionally to mislead the cultivators. Because the ws aren''t obvious, even great saint cultivators will not be able to know that it is an exact w. Like I say, I''ve almost perfected the Cherry Blossoms Heart Intricacy so I know how serious this w is. In theory, this w will be able to aid the cultivator on the next level and even the higher level but it is just thee to misguide the cultivators to lead them to believe that this part of the w isn''t the w and the mistakes must be because of the other parts of the cultivation practice."

    Ji Yuan nodded solemnly, "It is exactly as I''ve thought¡­"

    "You''re lying." Little Princess giggled as she showed him the glowing Untruth Nascent Pearl that was glowing green.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha." Heughed weakly, "I was just thinking along that line as well. You know that this is the Fallen Gods Valley for a reason."

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "Ji Yuan is a better cultivator than I am. I am so easily tempted, s!"

    "Maybe he is weak in picking new profound skills and therefore can''t be bothered? Even his swordy isn''t anything extraordinary." Shui Xisi offered a suggestion.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Why should I need any extraordinary swordy when all I need is a swift sword that can do the job for me. I don''t fight like a maiden."

    Yu Jingjing smiled weakly, "Intricate swordy is useful in a fight. You can''t be too honest and you need to use feints to fool your opponents in a fight."

    But Ji Yuanughed it off, "My opponents are too busy trying to fend against my attacks for any feints. Haha."

    Ji Yuan''s swordy is really very fast, so fast that his opponents can only count themselves lucky if they can defend against his sword attacks quickly. And feints don''t work against Ji Yuan because he has a hidden canny talent to know if the opening is a fake because he is always very cautious when he is doing sword fighting.

    When top sword saints fight, the mostplicated swordy will always be straightforward swordy because at their level, their sword arts are extremely focused, allowing their sword art to be doubly strong even against the cultivators that have the same profound strength as them; it is because all their sword strikes have no wastages at all. Whether it is speed, lethality or power, most cultivators have no chance to best a sword saint of the same cultivation realm with a sword.

    Saintess Yuluo and Ji Yuan can both kill a seventh rank deste beast with their relentless swordy. Although they may not be stronger than power cultivators of the same cultivation realm but power cultivators may not be able to deal with a seventh rank deste beast as easily as them.

    "Let''s go!" Ji Yuanughed; it was because he could finally get his party moving now.

    But all of a sudden a long bearded cultivator was waving in his direction from the mountains. And this cultivator was wearing the robe of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan did not recognize him but he was waving frantically in his direction, or was he waving at his beloveds?

    He began to frown¡­

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Who is he? Maybe he is a challenger who wants to obtain Ji Yuan''s golden robe for himself."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Maybe he wants my divine swords." He muttered.

    Little Princess whispered, "Careful. He is a saint cultivator. Did you see his burst of profound animus?"

    Ji Yuan frowned. "He must be courting his own death for daring toe alone."

    The long bearded cultivator was so in front of Ji Yuan and he was grinning excitingly, "You must be Ji Yuan, am I right? The Great Poet Ji Yuan?"

    "And who are you?" Ji Yuan returned him a disinterested look.

    "I''ve heard of your exploits in the trial settlements but I didn''t have the chance to meet you." The long bearded cultivatorughed. "Please allow me to introduce myself first. I am Saint Jon."

    "Saint Jon?" Ji Yuan''s disinterested look had suddenly be alive. "You mean you''re that Saint Jon the Great Cultivation Writer?"

    "Hahaha. I''m the one and only Saint Jon." The long bearded cultivator grinned. "I''ve long heard of your renown."

    "Haha." Ji Yuan wasughing too as well, "I am a big fan of yours! Do you know that I''ve read all your cultivation stories. Haha!"

    "Hahaha, I really didn''t know that you''re a big fan of mine." Saint Jonughed. "Actually I''ve thought of making you the main MC of my next cultivation hero. What do you think?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Really? Haha. By all means, please go ahead!"

    "This is too awesome!" Saint Jonughed aloud.

    Then he took a look at the six maidens with curtain veils behind Ji Yuan, "Maybe I should call the title of my new cultivation story ''The Romantic Cultivator''? It seems that the Great Poet Ji Yuan is ever the romantic cultivator. Even in the trial, you''ve so many maidens as yourpany."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Haha, actually¡­"

    Saint Jon interrupted with a grin, "Don''t worry. I totally understand your needs and I will keep it a secret from your consorts. Say, I''ve heard that you''ve banged the three great beauties of our celestial fraternity and even Little Princess. I wonder what techniques have you been using? Is it your bed techniques or your dual cultivation techniques? Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess: ¡­

    Rest of the maidens: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    "My apologies." Saint Jon smiled at the maidens behind Ji Yuan. "I am Saint Jon. I can see that some of you here are from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I''m sure that you''ve already heard of my name before. As for your secrets with Ji Yuan, I ampletely tight-lipped."

    "Saint what Jon?" Ling Feiyue frowned. "I''ve never heard of you before."

    "Never heard of you before." Little Princess began to ponder hard. "Are you famous?"

    Shui Xisi was also frowning, "Is he from the same poor region as Ji Yuan?"

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were not lying. They had never heard of Saint Jon before because they do not read any cultivation stories.

    Yu Jingjing however had heard of him before, "While I am not from the Deste Celestial Fraternity but I have long heard of your fame."

    Saint Jon began to smile broadly; finally there is someone who has eyes!

    "I wonder if you are the same Saint Jon as the cultivation writer that enjoys writing smut cultivation stories?" Yu Jingjing asked curiously.

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Ji Yuan panicky interrupted, "Of course not! He is the other one. Haha."

    He will be screwed if these maidens know that he had been reading smut cultivation stories.

    Saint Jon weakly said, "Of course not¡­"

    "You''re saying that you want to write about me as a main MC in your cultivation stories?" Ji Yuan quickly said to Saint Jon.

    Saint Jon quickly replied as he pretended that the conversations with the maidens had never happened, "That''s right. Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before replying, "You do have my permission but I want to set a few conditions first."

    "Oh? Let''s me hear." Saint Jon asked curiously.

    "First, I don''t enjoy reading about your separation arcs that can span 1000 chapters." Ji Yuan solemnly said.

    Saint Jon weakly said, "Don''t you think that the love story will be epic this way?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "After 1000 chapters, do you think that the main MC won''t be green?"

    Saint Jonughed weakly, "Of course not."

    But he quickly asked, "What''s the next condition?"

    "Do you have to write body strengthening art as the beginning for all the cultivators? You know that we''re all celestials here and we even have body strengthening art as the basis. Our body is naturally strengthened by the martial profound arts that we''ve been practicing."

    Ji Yuan continued to say, "Can you imagine the muscles a maiden will have after they have max up their body strengthening art? It is pretty gross, ugly and leaves a bad aftertaste when I am reading it all the time¡­"

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    "Also it is pretty unrealistic that fists and fingers can''t prate a cultivator''s body strengthening art but a sword can. Don''t they feel pain at all? My sword fingers can certainly piece through a body like a sword, you know. Also a power cultivator''s palm attack can even melt down a cultivator''s internal organs with a mighty hit¡­"

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    "The cultivators in the Celestial Realm practice internal profound art. With a snap of our fingers, we can easily break iron and steel into two. We don''t need any body strengthening profound art. We do have our profound auras to sway away attacks, you know..."

    Saint Jon was frowning bitterly; This Ji Yuan can really talk nonstop¡­

    "Look at my beautiful robe. It is far better than any of the body strengthening profound art. Howe you don''t write about defensive profound treasures like the other cultivation writers? Isn''t this more realistic this way?"

    Saint Jon smiled weakly, "Sorry, that is a bad habit that I''ve picked up while I was in the mortal realm. Erm, anything else to add?"

    Ji Yuan grinned with great delight as he took out his saintly divine sword, "I''ve christened my saintly divine sword as ''Lightning'' so I like you to write a cheat for me to be immune to lightning, haha."

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Is he trying to show off his saint-step divine sword in front of me after showing off his golden robe?

    But he quickly forced himself to smile, "Anything else?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I actually still have some more conditions to add. Haha."

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    "Remember to write me as a super smart and ruthless MC. I really love your style of writing that makes the MC look good by decreasing the intelligence of all the other protagonists¡­"

    "No Lolita please. I''m not into that¡­"

    "Make me irresistible to the maidens. Haha¡­"

    "¡­ ¡­ ¡­"

    "¡­ ¡­ ¡­"

    "¡­ ¡­ ¡­"

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    Saint Jon: ¡­

    He is talking nonstop. Is he the writer or I am the writer¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue started to pull Ji Yuan away. "You''re wasting too much time here¡­"

    "Didn''t you say that we should hasten our progress? Howe you are chatting nonstop here¡­"

    Ji Yuan panicky protested. "Wait, wait! Saint Jon is a friend. There is nothing wrong with chatting with a friend, am I right¡­"

    "We got to go now." Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi said at the same time.

    "But I''ve not done yet. Saint Jon says he is trying to write a cultivation story based on me so it is important that I give him as many tips as possible about myself¡­" Ji Yuan protested loudly.

    "Please pardon us!" Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing said at the same time to Saint Jon as they pulled Ji Yuan away.

    Saint Jon smiled weakly, "Not at all, not at all."

    And he really meant it; finally he had got rid of this talkative Great Poet Ji Yuan and he was relieved.

    But he was soon frowning, "How dare this cultivator thinks that he can write better than I. Very well then I shall make him be a fatty in my next cultivation story. He doesn''t want body strengthening art? Fine, I shall give him then. The more he advances in his body strengthening art, the fatter that he will be. Hahaha¡­"

    But still, this did not cool down his infuriating fires so he decided, "Not only that, whenever your body strengthening art improves, you will feel a lustful heat and you will bang anyone, including Lolitas."

    "You want lightning immunity? I shall not give you lightning but I will call the name of your profound art as Chaotic Lightning Cultivation. You can wait long, long to read about your immunity to lightning. Hahaha¡­"

 Chapter 343 The Fallen Gods Valley (8)

    "Ji Yuan, you''re such a hypocrite!" Ling Feiyue rebuked him gently as they entered into the interior of the Fallen Gods Valley.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It is only a quick chat and it won''t take long¡­."

    Shui Xisi expressed her annoyances, "You''ve actually let us wait two hours and you call that not long?"

    "Haha. I didn''t realize time flies so fast." Ji Yuanughed.

    Then he said solemnly, "Actually I am just digging for more information. I think he may have an ulterior motive when he had approached us earlier and that was why I was trying to find out more¡­"

    "You really think so?" Little Princess winked at him as she showed him the glowing green pearl in her hands.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly muttered, "Exactly how many times can you use this thing?"

    "As many times as I wish as long as I''ve profound strength." Little Princess chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then I''m screwed forever¡­

    But he quickly disyed his most charming grin as he looked into the golden eyes of Little Princess, "You and me, we''ve known each other the longest, am I right?"

    Little Princess nodded lightly, not knowing what Ji Yuan was going to say to her next.

    "Between us, there should be trust. Our rtionship should not depend on such a vile green thing. One day, our trust will be destroyed by such a vile thing and this is not something that I want."

    Little Princess looked at the Untruth Nascent Pearl and saw that it was not glowing; Ji Yuan is dead serious.

    "Is it something that you want to happen?" Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    Little Princess muttered. "No¡­"

    "Then give it to me for safekeeping." Ji Yuan said.

    Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi immediately said to Little Princess, "Don''t fall for his tricks!"

    Xiang Li asked curiously in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Big Brother, you''re going to use it on Jiajia?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially to Xiang Li, "Howe you know me so well? Haha. Don''t tell the others. With this Untruth Nascent Pearl, Jiajia will never be able to use her mind tricks on me anymore. In the future, I shall be the DOMINANT ALPHA!"<sub> </sub>

    He chuckled with a sudden new thought, "I shall ask her if she wants to go bed with me and I shall dominate her at every turn because I''ve this ultimate weapon in my possession."

    Fairy Anyang whispered with extreme curiosity to Xiang Li, "Did this Jiajia somehow hurt his ego in the past?"

    "Shhh." Xiang Li whispered back. "Don''t let him hear you. Lately his seventh sense profound art is improving."

    Ji Yuan''s focus had quickly returned back to Little Princess as he tried very hard to suppress his excitement, "My lovely Little Princess, you''re the great delight of my heart. Don''t let our trust be destroyed by such a vile profound treasure. Give it to¡­"

    All of a sudden Little Princess had crushed the Untruth Nascent Pearl to powder with her profound strength. "My lord is right. There should be trust between us. Such a vile profound treasure shouldn''t exist as a barrier between us."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had almost spurt blood on the spot¡­

    Little Princess winked at him mesmerizingly, "My lord, I''m sorry for using this vile profound treasure. I hope that you can forgive me."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he trembled on the spot, "Naturally I will forgive you. This is nothing unforgivable¡­"

    Unforgivable!

    As Ji Yuan turned his back around with a trembling sway, he failed to notice that all six of the maidens were smiling and trying very hard to suppress their secretughter; naturally they had seen through Ji Yuan''s tricks.

    Little Princess was smiling enchantingly; Ji Yuan, you and I, we''ve been ''enemies'' for so long. I''ve been following you and know all your subtle mannerisms. You want to use this Untruth Nascent Pearl on us, fat chance!

    Ji Yuan muttered incoherently as he walked off, "The weather is so good today."

    He was actually muttering to himself; my yacting is so convincing. How did Little Princess see through my real intentions?

    He had lost this round of the battle of the wits and had pretended that he was not aware of it.

    I shall win the next round! He resolved silently.

    All of a sudden, the dark heavens had shed hundreds of purple lightning strikes on the surfaces.

    Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi were both singing with great delight, "Yea, the weather is so good today!"

    After Ji Yuan walked a dozen steps, he was rubbing his chin and grinning;

    Well, I didn''t exactly lose this round of the battle of the wits. At least I''ve gotten rid of that vile pearl. So I''m still the ultimate winner. Muhahaha¡­

 Chapter 344 The Red Mansion (1)

    Ji Yuan and his party soon found an opening in the mountains after trekking for hours; they had long trekked past the ck walls mountains and they were now in a zone where there were no thunderstorms.

    While some of the maidens were sighing with regret after they had left the ck walls mountains, Ji Yuan was sighing that he was unable to talk to Saint Jon for a much longer time.

    Feng Minyue said coolly, "There is no point in looking back. We''re not turning back. While Ji Yuan is chatting with Saint Jon, you should spend your time to decipher the ck walls instead."

    Ling Feiyue smiled bitterly, "How do we know that Ji Yuan can talk for more than two hours."

    Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing were all groaning at the same time. "That''s right! He can really gossip like a woman."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng returned a soft sigh, "Didn''t I already tell you that these profound arts have a w?"

    Yu Jingjing giggled softly, "Maybe we can correct the ws on our own."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were all giggling in agreement with Yu Jingjing, "You are our good sister."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "Doesn''t the name sound ominous to you? That is the Fallen Gods Valley. This will be the ce that you will all fall in the future should you pick up the profound arts here."

    Ji Yuan sighed, "Actually we can''t me them at all. After all, secret cultivation profound arts are what cause the celestials to fight all the time. I remember that there was once a powerful sword art that almost caused the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity to go to arms. That happened thousands of years ago and more than a million celestials died because of that incident. In the end, many of the powerful profound arts of my celestial fraternity are lost till to this day."

    Little Princess smiled, "I am curious about the name of that sword art that can cause a million celestials to perish."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually I can''t really remember since it is something that had happened several thousands of years ago. That sword art is probably forgotten in the river of time¡­"

    "I do remember the name of that supreme sword art." Little Princess giggled as she gave him a wink. "It is the Million shes Sword Art."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes slowly, "Then¡­why¡­didn''t you say¡­so¡­earlier?"

    Little Princess sighed softly, "I did tell you."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Is it toote for us to turn back now?"

    Feng Minyue had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan''s hand, "It is toote to turn back now. Let''s go forward instead."

    Ji Yuan gasped silently; she is pulling my hand¡­

    All the other maidens were also startled that Feng Minyue had taken the initiative to pull Ji Yuan along with her.

    Xiang Li giggled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Big Brother, Maiden Feng likes you!"

    "Nonsense Xiang Li." Ji Yuanughed weakly, "All my good impressions are all gone by now. Haha."

    "What is that?" Feng Minyue said all of a sudden as she pointed at a red cliff that had appeared in the horizon ahead of them.

    There was a shimmering red portal that was blocking the entrance of this red cliff.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "We may have found the way to the next part of the trial."

    Ling Feiyue said excitingly, "Let''s go in!"

    Then she looked at Feng Minyue and Ji Yuan, "So, how long are you going to hold hands?"

    Feng Minyue gasped as she quickly loosened her grip on Ji Yuan as she had not realized that she had been holding him all this while.

    Actually it was mainly because Ji Yuan had also caught hold of her hands as well.

    Ji Yuan chuckled. "Haha.."

    It did not take them long enough to enter into the shimmering red portal;

    They soon found themselves in a big vast red hall and there was a ck stele near to where they had appeared.

    Touching the ck stele soon revealed that this ce was called the ''Red Mansion''.

    And they were not alone in this vast great hall.

    There were dozens of passageways and they saw hundreds of cultivators.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see so many cultivators and all of them were studying the red walls of the hall with their divine senses.

    An alluring maiden in red with an upper face mask had suddenly caught Ji Yuan''s attention but he pretended not to notice her; this alluring maiden had a wonderful figure and her mesmerizing charm could even rival Little Princess.

    She was wearing a short red skirt that revealed her beautiful legs and Ji Yuan enjoys looking at legs.

    Ji Yuan secretly gave her a score of 9.9. Maybe a 10 if he could see her face.

    Naturally Ji Yuan had an all-round vision and he could secretly look at her without any of the maidens in his party knowing about it; his eyes are really sharp and he can peek at the edge of his eyes with a subtle movement.

    Little Princess whispered to her party, "Did you all see that maiden in red over there? Even if I am a woman, I can''t help admiring her stunning beauty."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "I feel like taking off my curtain veil for a better look too."

    But Ji Yuan pretended not to see the maiden in red.

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "This is too weird. Howe Ji Yuan fails to notice such a stunning beauty?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I am paying great attention to the red walls here."

    "That is indeed weird. Maybe he has suddenly be a gay?" Shui Xisi giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng had just finished quietly analyzing part of the red walls with her divine sense and she had turned to say to everyone, "Hidden within these walls are cultivation profound arts as well. Although it is nowhere asplete as the ck walls outside but it seems to be wless so far."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was cursing softly, "Maybe if we can find the imperfect Million shes Sword Art outside and the iplete Million shes Art, we can restore the Million shes Sword Art. It is like 1+1¡­"

    "Stop thinking about it." Ling Feiyue kicked his foot gently. "It is already toote for regrets. You''re the one that is in such a hurry."

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Maybe it isn''t toote to study the invisible inscriptions here?"

    All the maidens were suddenly looking at Ji Yuan for his suggestion.

    Little Princess said charmingly, "It doesn''t hurt the least bit to stay for a little longer?"

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and Yu Jingjing were all nodding with beautiful smiles on their faces, even though Ji Yuan could not see their expressions.

    Ji Yuan could feel that they were all looking at him for a suggestion.

    But in his heart, he had also wanted to stay a little longer but the thought that the Death God Mingwang was on his back made him really uneasy.

    So he said solemnly, "We have to keep moving."

    Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were both nodding lightly.

    Bai Qianfeng did not want to stay in the ce for too long even though there were literally tons of cultivation profound arts that could even tempt an immortal; it was because presence of the Death God Mingwang was making her feel really uneasy as well.

    Somehow she got the feeling that the Death God Mingwang was also going after her instead of Ji Yuan alone.

    The power ranking of this Death God Mingwang is actually not beneath the Great Demon Lord.

    The Great Demon Lord, the Death God Mingwang and the Dragon Lord Longdi are three of the True Deste Rulers of the Deste Realm before the arrival of the Deste Immortals in their Ancient Fortress.

    With their permissions, the Deste Immortals are allowed to have a dwelling ce in their new home the Deste Realm and the four factions formed an equilibrium bnce.

    The Deste Immortals are not always known as the Deste Immortals but as the Immortals of the Gods'' Realm. They are only known as the Deste Immortals after they were forced to be exiled to the Deste Realm by the Great God Pangu.

    At that time the Deste Immortals were not weaker than any of the True Deste Rulers because they had two great immortal lords as well; the World Ruler Fuxi and the Great Lord Xuan Yuan.

    However the Deste Immortals may not be a match for thebined three True Deste Rulers. Luckily for the Deste Immortals, the three True Deste Rulers were at odds since the beginning of their time reckoning.

    In fact, many of the Deste Immortals had be their pawns as they waged their evesting battles against one another.

    At least that was what Bai Qianfeng had understood.

    She could not understand how the Death God Mingwang could be serving the schemes of the Great Demon Lord now.

    "Handsome hero." A beautiful maiden in fiery red with a ck mask that covered her upper face except for her golden eyes had suddenly approached them with a curtsy smile. Or rather, it was her head that had bowed instead of her smile.

    But Ji Yuan was only looking at her beautiful red lips and her smiles.

    "Haha, do I know you?" He asked curiously.

    He could not tell which celestial fraternity that she was from her dress but she was definitely not from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and hence, not someone that he would actually know.

    Ling Feiyue frowned softly, "You''ve better not know her."

    It was because Ling Feiyue and all the maidens could see that she was a really very beautiful maiden and her ck mask had only thinly covered only her upper face.

    Even Qianfeng''s green cockatiel was whistling a wolf call when she had approached.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; he had almost forgotten about this green cockatiel that was always on his Qianfeng''s shoulder...

    The other cultivators that were nearby, males and female alike were all looking at this red dress maiden from the very start because she was simply too attractive.

    The attractive maiden in redughed pleasantly, "Naturally you won''t know a nobody like me but you''re definitely someone with a powerful background. And even a genius cultivator."

    "Oh? Haha." Ji Yuan felt ttered, "Howe I do not know that I have a powerful background?"

    The attractive maiden in red smiled shyly, "You really do know how to joke. Look at your robe. It must have cost at least a million high grade spirit stones. If you do not have a powerful background, can you afford it? Or unless you''re a thief."

    Ji Yuanughed as he purposely shook his brilliant golden robe. "Haha¡­"

    The attractive maiden in red continued shyly, "And it is obvious to me that you have six beautiful attendants with you too¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    We are attendants?!

    "I can only make a humble guess that you''re a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, am I right?" The attractive maiden in red chuckled softly. "After all, there are some distinct clues in the marking of this robe."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "Actually I''m not a prince but I am merely a knight of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire." He had just remembered that Prince Hua Yingxiong had made him an honorable knight of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    "s, I am indeed mistaken about my guess." She nodded awkwardly and her awkwardness made her looked even more alluring. "But I''m not too far from my guess. A knight of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire is still a powerful figure. I''ve heard that there are one hundred powerful Knights of the Round Table in the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire."

    "Haha." Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly; he actually did not know a lot about the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    "Also, if you''re not a genius cultivator, you won''t be in this ce but struck outside the ck walls mountains outside." She winked lovingly at him.

    She paused for a while before adding pleasantly, "My name is Yun Chi. How about yours?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "My name is Ji Yuan."

    "It is my great honor to be able to talk to a great hero like Ji Yuan here today." Yun Chi giggled with delight.

    "Me too, haha." Ji Yuan was delighted as well; he had never seen such a pleasant, polite and vixen looking maiden in his life before.

    His golden eyes were already exploring every inch of her scantily dressed body.

    Ji Yuan failed to notice that the maidens behind him seemed to have a coldness around them and they seemed to feel threaten by this ''newpetitor''.

 Chapter 345 The Red Mansion (2)

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly as she looked at Yun Chi, "Hmph! Pardon! We''re not Ji Yuan''s attendants. Rather, we''re all his beloved consorts!"

    Both Feng Minyue and Shui Xisi were startled and their lips moved to protest silently; who is his beloved consort¡­

    Little Princess said with equal coldness, "I think that you look very much like a gold digger."

    Yun Chi appeared to be startled by the harsh tone that was used by Little Princess that she turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "Please believe me. I''m not a gold digger and I''ve no ill-intentions."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I believe you."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang was saying to Xiang Li, "I think that a big catfight is about to start. Don''t you think so?"

    Xiang Li was rolling her eyes, "I hope not! I don''t know who to support¡­"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Yun Chi turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "They are your women? Sorry I didn''t know about it."

    "It''s alright." Ji Yuanughed.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "But do you think that a consort should worship her lord? If I''ve a lord, I will surely put him above everything else and that includes respecting him and not interrupting him in front of the others."

    "Haha. That''s because you''re a wonderful maiden." Ji Yuanughed, "Actually I do not mind at all."

    Shui Xisi said coldly, "Are you here to tell us all these or are you here to lecture us? Let me tell you that you''re not wee here at all!"

    "We''re in the middle of a trial." Yun Chi smiled, "Where do you expect me to go then?"

    "Weird, this hall is so big and has so many passages. Or are you blind?" Shui Xisi mocked coldly.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "We''re all cultivators here and we can talk politely¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, whose side are you on?" Ling Feiyue interrupted unhappily.

    "Or he is thinking with his lower body now." Little Princess hummed.

    Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were looking awkward; they did not want to be involved in any spats.

    However it seemed that Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were all no pushovers and they were bent on driving this Yun Chi away.

    Shui Xisi repeated to Yun Chi, "Why don''t you leave now?"

    Instead of replying to Shui Xisi, Yun Chi turned to Ji Yuan with a pleasant smile to say. "If you''re my lord, I will just keep quiet because any disrespect to your guests is like a p on your face¡­"

    "You can leave now." Ji Yuan interrupted coolly.

    Yun Chi was startled, "What did you just say?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You must be hard on your hearing. I''ll repeat, you can leave now."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She could not believe what she was hearing¡­

    And she was very sure that no man will be able to turn her away, moreover turn her away in such an ugly manner.

    Even the six maidens that were with Ji Yuan were startled and they could not believe what Ji Yuan was saying all of a sudden. It was as though he had suddenly be another person and had suddenly lost all his friendliness with this Yun Chi.

    As Yun Chi slowly turned back, there was a perplexed look in her eyes.

    "We shall meet again soon, farewell¡­"

    Her walk was elegant and slow; she was half-expecting for Ji Yuan to call her back or to apologize to her but it did note¡­

    It was because Ji Yuan was serious when he had asked her to leave.

    Although Ji Yuan likes the beautiful maidens, especially the ones that appeal to his heart but this Yun Chi had made a terrible mistake and that was to belittle his innermost sentiments for his beloveds.

    He may be a male chauvinist most of the time but he also had the most sentimental heart. Ling Feiyue and Little Princess, they are both dear in his heart; he has never forgotten how they are acquainted, the rough journeys that they had been through and the tears that he had unwittingly brought to them.

    Even today, he could still remember how he had made the proud Dark Mistress Feiyue wept in front of him by pretending not to reciprocate her feelings and he had even shamed her in front of Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu. At that time, even Jiajia was there in secret to witness his shameful act.<sub> </sub>

    As for Little Princess, she had almost ended her life thest time and he was so close to losing her. It actually took them over three hundred years to clear their various misunderstandings.

    He is not prepared or is willing to lose her again. Since she had made the choice of entering the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he could not dissuade her, he had resolved to protect her instead.

    And he had fully understood that Ling Feiyue and Little Princess are quite tolerant to his overbearing male chauvinist behavior and did not rebuke him harshly.

    In fact they had closed an eye to his many misdeeds.

    Rather, it was their little act of theirs that showed him of their affections for him instead.

    And he was enjoying this little process of slowly opening up to them and they were also doing the same as well.

    He will not allow anyone to hurt nor belittle his beloveds.

    Yun Chi had clearly underestimated his love for them.

    Beautiful maidens?

    The Great Poet Ji Yuan has countless beautiful fan girls but this does not mean that he will take a liking to them all.

    In Ji Yuan''s tunnel vision, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess are his family; no one can insult them in front of him!

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she muttered, "You''re really letting her go just like this?"

    "I can''t believe." Little Princess muttered.

    Even Fairy Anyang was saying to Xiang Li, "I don''t believe¡­"

    Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were staring at Ji Yuan, unable to believe what they were actually hearing; Ji Yuan was actually acting quite rude in front of such a polite and pleasant maiden, at least to Ji Yuan that was the case.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why are all of you looking at me like this? Do you think that I''m only capable of thinking with my lower body?"

    All the maidens, including Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang in his soul sea were all nodding silently at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha, actually¡­"

    "Actually, this must be a plot of yours, am I right?" Little Princess chuckled.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "That how he got Maiden Yu."

    Yu Jingjing was suddenly flushing behind her curtain veil. She quickly muttered weakly, "No¡­this¡­isn''t what¡­you¡­all¡­think¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    There was a sudden earthquake that shook the entire red hall, startling Ji Yuan and his party all of a sudden.

    All of a sudden there were several loud shouts across the red hall and many of the cultivators were rushing to the source of the earthquake excitingly, "A secret passage has just opened!"

    Another shouted frantically, "Another of the Fallen God Relic has revealed itself!"

    "Quick, go and have a look!"

    "Hurry, everyone!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    He was growling softly to the maidens, "Why are they sharing the location of the Fallen God Relic with one another?"

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "Maybe they need one another. After all, this is an S Rank Trial."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I''ve almost forgotten that this is an S Rank Trial. The way here has been too easy except for a single bad encounter with the Death God Mingwang."

 Chapter 346 The Red Mansion (3)

    When Ji Yuan and his party had arrived at the scene, they were quite startled to see that hundreds of cultivators had already gathered at the source of the earthquake spot.

    Ji Yuan could see that there was an opening in the red walls ahead of them and that hundreds of cultivators were staring at an expanding shimmering red portal.

    This shimmering red portal had not fully opened yet and that was why the cultivators were all waiting with great anticipation.

    Ji Yuan saw that there were actually more than a dozen cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity that were presented.

    He could not resist rubbing his chin when he saw them stroking their beards.

    But it seemed that most of them were not able to recognize him except for two cultivators, one male and one female.

    Many of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had actually never seen Ji Yuan before and even before the gates of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had opened as the cultivators were in suchrge numbers that they were divided into many major and minor pre-trial settlements.

    That was the main reason why most of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity here are not paying any scant notice to him now.

    Moreover Ji Yuan was now wearing the robe of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    As a matter of fact, there were many cultivators from the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire that were suddenly giving Ji Yuan a respectful hand bow as though he was some big shot.

    The male cultivator quickly gave a subtle hand bow while the female cultivator quickly averted her eyes away.

    But when the male cultivator had also given a subtle hand bow in the direction of Ling Feiyue, he was frowning all of a sudden¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was thinking that he was finding this male cultivator to be familiar but yet he could not recall where he had seen him before, Ling Feiyue whispered quietly to him. "You call yourself the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect and yet you can''t recognize him. He is one of the senior elders of my sect. Your sect including."

    Ling Feiyue kicked him lightly on his foot before she giggled softly, "But I like your envious look earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He immediately protested weakly, "Who says that I am envious? I''ve already recognized him."

    His attention quickly returned to the petite maiden that had averted her eyes; he found her a little familiar but he could not recall immediately who she was¡­

    All of a sudden he began to frown when he remembered that she is from the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the same sect as Xue Qianxue and Zhao Songjin.

    This maiden name is Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang.

    The Holy Maidens in the Celestial Orthodox Sect are ranked Bronze, Silver, Gold and Royal Purple so this Qin Shuang here is actually a high ranking core prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Celestial Orthodox Sect. Below the Holy Maidens are the Holy Servants and the Celestial Maids.

    Ji Yuan began to frown immediately. It was because he had suddenly recognized the whip that was in her hand; when he was at the Celestial Orthodox Sect, he was whipped daily by her for three weeks and he was subjected to unbearable pains by her torments.

    However the others did not know that Ji Yuan was once subjected by his old master to a three year whipping and a three year sword stabbing which was even more brutal.

    He had told his old master back then, "I don''t want to be your sessor anymore. I''ve endured three years of whippings but you''re driving a sword into my body. What if I were to die from the sword wounds?!"

    But his old master grinned, "It is already toote for regrets. Ji Yuan, do you know why I''m doing this? Because your performance will be affected if you''ve injuries and your weakness will be apparent. I''m training you to be immune to pain and be emotionless in battle."

    And his old master had really driven a sword into his body, sending him to reel with extreme pain.

    "Master, did you just drive the sword into my internal organs." Ji Yuan foamed blood.

    "Take these pills and you will feel a little better." His old master tossed the pills into Ji Yuan''s mouth and disyed his profound energy to help him to close his wounds.

    "Master, I am still not feeling better. I''m in extreme pain and I think that I''m dying¡­"

    "Don''t keep thinking of how painful the pain is. Think of it as experiencing a sexual pleasure."

    "Master! You''re turning me into a masochist¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had remembered how brutal the sessor ritual was, he began to shiver. Over that three years, he had been given more than thirty fatal stabbing and he found himself in bed for several weeks and months each time.

    But he knew that his old master had finished all the profound pills in the Orthodox Sword Sect and had even bankrupted the Orthodox Sword Sect to purchase for more healing profound pills for his sake.

    So he sucked his own thumb and endured it; his old master is a Sword Saint and he has high expectations for him to be a Sword Saint like him as well.

    While Ji Yuan was recalling his past experiences, he saw the extremely attractive red dressed maiden Yun Chi again as she entered into the hallway.

    When she saw Ji Yuan, she did not hesitate to walk to him to smile pleasantly at him again, "I''ve told you that we''ll soon meet again."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he looked at her but he had decided to keep his mouth shut.

    But Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing were all growling softly, "You again¡­"

    Ji Yuan pretended to focus his attention on why all these cultivators were all camping together and many of them were even shouting in the great hall to echo their excited voices to alert the others.

    Yun Chi had suddenly approached Ji Yuan again, "I wonder what is up here."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "It is my first time witnessing such a sight."

    "Same here. Maybe we can even form a party together?" Yun Chi smiled, "After all, I feel much safer in yourpany."

    All the other maidens: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue said coldly, "You''re too shameless. Can''t you leave already?"

    Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing had all joined in as well, "Didn''t you just say farewell earlier? Who wants to be in the same party as you?"

    "I am in the same trial as all of you here. I can''t go elsewhere. Maybe you can all go elsewhere instead?" Yun Chi smiled pleasantly.

    Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Little Princess: ¡­

    Feng Minyue said, "You should really go. This party doesn''t seem to wee you."

    "What do you think Ji Yuan?" Yun Chi turned to Ji Yuan to ask him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She sounds as though we''re so close¡­

    He frowned, "I can''t stop you from taking the trial here but unfortunately, you''ve to go elsewhere for a party. We''re not partying any strangers."

    Yun Chi smiled, "We have our introductions already. Are we still strangers?"

    Ji Yuan growled, "Other than your name, I don''t even know your background. Who knows if your name is real as well."

    "Wind Cloud Celestial Sect, Profound Alps Celestial Fraternity." Yun Chi smiled.

    Feng Minyue said, "This celestial fraternity does not exist!"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly as she exined, "My celestial fraternity is not from the 47 known celestial fraternities so it is naturally that you''ve never heard of it before. Rather, my celestial fraternity is part of the 3000 lesser known celestial fraternities. Maybe you can''t call my celestial fraternity a true celestial fraternity as it is rather small. In order to take part in the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, I''ve to travel to the Eastern Isle Celestial Fraternity. It is a rather arduous journey, especially for a vulnerable maiden like me."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You don''t look so vulnerable or else you won''t be on the fifth level."

    It was a no brainer look that this Yun Chi was actually looking extremely sure of herself and that she was definitely not a vulnerable maiden.

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "I''m just putting on a brave front in front of a hero like you."

    Ji Yuan and all the maidens: ¡­

    All of a sudden there were many excited shouts, "Look! Look! The portal has revealed itself!"

    The portal has revealed itself? Ji Yuan frowned.

    What is that supposed to mean?<sub> </sub>

    He switched his attention to the shimmering red portal and saw that there was an image of an ind inside the portal.

    Many of the first timers like Ji Yuan were all gasping curiously and they had a perplexed look; they didn''t exactly think that they will be seeing an image of an ind in the portal. Rather, they have all thought that they are supposed to enter the portal to discover whaty behind the other side.

    A handsome cultivator immediately said, "We have failed to retrieve the Fallen Gods Relic against the other teams for the past three times. This time, follow my lead inside and I will lead everyone to our victory!"

    A first time cultivatorughed and mocked, "Since you''ve already failed for the past three times, do you think that we are able to trust your leadership?"

    Many of the first timers were allughing jovially too.

    "Yea!"

    "Why should we trust your leadership?"

    "How do we know that it isn''t your ruse to make use of us?"

    The handsome cultivator hummed coldly, "I, Gong Xiaotian is the strongest cultivator here. If I dare to make this im, no one else will dare to make the same im!"

    The same first time cultivator that was mocking him earlier replied coldly, "Heh! This im is too bold! Aren''t you afraid of meeting a stronger cultivator?"

    Gong Xiaotian hummed coldly as he suddenly disyed his profound animus which exploded furiously as it wavered with strong profound strength.

    Many of the cultivators were gasping with awe; indeed this Gong Xiaotian is not lying. His profound animus is really strong and he has revealed himself as a great saint to everyone.

    Gong Xiaotian lifted his hands as he said at the same time, "I shall let you witness my true profound strength."

    The strength of his profound animus had suddenly doubled and an image of a spirit entity in the form of a giant old man had suddenly manifested from his profound animus and was echoing with a deep voice, "My spirit strength is the power to double the profound animus of my deserving master."

    Many of the cultivators were gasping with even more awe and shock;

    "This is a sentient spirit entity¡­"

    "He has a rare spirit entity that can talk¡­"

    "He is really strong¡­this profound animus of his is the strongest that I''ve seen¡­"

    "Surely he must be the strongest cultivator here¡­"

    "He is a genius cultivator¡­"

    When Ji Yuan saw the old man spirit, he was grinning nonstop and his chest was puffy because he was trying very hard not tough because this Gong Xiaotian really got an ugly sentient spirit entity.

    When he thought that if this old man spirit was his own instead of Xiang Li, he was shaking uncontrobly because he wasughing inside his soul sea to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "Did you see that? I can''t imagine having to talk to an old man every day like this. Hahaha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang is now able to upy his soul sea because they are now soul bounded together as lord and consort now even though she could not tap into Ji Yuan''s soul sea since the real upier is actually Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were bothughing nonstop too.

    All of a sudden Gong Xiaotian had disyed his celestial-step divine sword in Ji Yuan''s direction because he saw that he had the most uncontroble expressions. "That fellow cultivator over there. You''ve an issue with me?"

    When the many cultivators saw that Gong Xiaotian had disyed a celestial-step divine sword, they were all gasping with disbelief and were envious.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was startled when Gong Xiaotian had suddenly pointed in his direction and had just shot him a question.

    Before Ji Yuan could answer him, Gong Xiaotian said coldly again. "Are you mocking me?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he began to straighten his golden robe but before he could think of a proper response, many of the cultivators could be heard saying;

    "Look at the way he is straightening his golden robe, he must be trying to show off his wealth¡­"

    "He must be some arrogant rich young master. He is all shy¡­"

    "No wonder he dares to mock at him because he looks like a rich wastrel that can afford tons of cultivation treasures¡­"

    "He is also handsome so he must bepeting with him to see who is the more handsome¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan took a look at his robe and he began to look weakly at the rest of the cultivators; I didn''t evenugh it out loud and why is he picking on me?!

    Gong Xiaotian added coldly, "What is your name? Since you''ve dared to mock at me, do you dare to report your name?"

    Yun Chi answered with a pleasant smile before Ji Yuan could even answer, "He is Ji Yuan, the greatest hero in the Celestial Realm. Naturally he should be the leader of our group for the trial, don''t you think so?"

    Many of the cultivators were either gasping with shock orughing with disbelief;

    "The greatest hero in the Celestial Realm?!"

    "What a big im¡­"

    "Is he for real?"

    "He must be an arrogant young master¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Does this Yun Chi have to add the ''Greatest Hero in the Celestial Realm'' for me? How do I get out of this situation then¡­

    "Why are you allughing at Ji Yuan?" Yun Chi smiled. "He is the greatest hero ever in the Celestial Realm. All of you are like ants in his eyes."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Many of the faces of the cultivators had suddenly turned ugly and there were many hostile looks that were now staring coldly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was rendered speechless as he stared at Yun Chi, "You¡­"

    She had just turned half of the cultivators in this hallway into his enemies¡­

    "Great Hero Ji Yuan, don''t worry." Yun Chi smiled pleasantly at him. "I''m on your side."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all rendered speechless by Yun Chi and they were now quite upset with her.

    But Yun Chi did not seem to mind their hostile stares and animosities as she continued to smile pleasantly, "Great hero, you must protect me against them for taking your side. I''m a little afraid of their reprisals. Their eyes are like wolves that seemingly want to rip my clothing apart."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was so shaking with rage that he had finally found his voice again to say, "If I tell you that I do not know this maiden here, will you believe me?"

 Chapter 347 The Red Mansion (4)

    Ji Yuan took a step back from Yun Chi as he said bitterly, "I don''t know her at all¡­"

    Many of the cultivators interrupted with a mockingughter, "He can really lie his way through. We saw them together and they are evenughing together."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Many of the same cultivators had an envious look when they saw Yun Chi talking to him earlier.

    When Yun Chi had left Ji Yuan''spany, she was even smiling pleasantly; this caused many of the cultivators to think that they had a big hit with each other. This further invoked their irk for Ji Yuan.

    Gong Xiaotian said even more coldly, "You don''t know her? What a coward. I saw the two of you earlier!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was frowning immediately. It was because he had suddenly realized that Gong Xiaotian had picked on him for another reason.

    A woman can often cause hot blooded men to fight with one another for her attention.

    And Ji Yuan was right; Yun Chi had indeed given Gong Xiaotian the cold shoulder when he had approached her earlier and he had witnessed her talking to Ji Yuan in an amicable manner.

    "Xiang Li, do you know what I''m thinking?" Ji Yuan asked Xiang Li inside his soul sea.

    "Why did you only ask Xiang Li? Am I not your spirit consort too?" Fairy Anyang said coldly.

    "Haha. I''ve almost forget that you can also hear me in my soul sea now. That of course includes my Consort Anyang too." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    He still had not gonna used to having Fairy Anyang presence in his soul sea until now. After all, he was used to murmur to Xiang Li in his soul sea even though half of the time Xiang Li was either sleeping or MIA.

    Why did he have to force Fairy Anyang to be his Spirit Consort?

    Because he wanted her to keep his secrets tightly within the three of them or else his manly pride would be screwed.

    "Erm, Big Brother. Are you thinking that this Master Gong Xiaotian is just a bitter love rival?" Xiang Li giggled as she answered Ji Yuan.

    "Not a bitter love rival. He is just an envious man that can''t even get his woman." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    "So, how are you going to settle this? Need my help?" Fairy Anyang smiled. "I am obligated to help my lord, naturally."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially in his soul sea, "Do I look like I need any help? Watch me!"

    Fairy Anyang and Xiang Li rolled their eyes as they looked at each other; they had no idea if Ji Yuan was just saying this to them because it serves to bolster his manly pride or because he really had a good idea.

    Their lord was sometimes too unpredictable even by their spirit standards.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud all of a sudden, startling all the cultivators, including the maidens in his party. "Haha, Master Gong. I''ve finally got your attention now."

    Gong Xiaotian: ???

    Ji Yuan grinned, "A woman is like a piece of clothing. If you want Maiden Yun Chi to be your own, I can give her to you."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all thinking the same thing; I''m going to hit Ji Yuanter. What does he mean by a woman is like a piece of clothing¡­

    Ji Yuan continued, "As for your leadership, I''ve no doubt about it."

    Then he pointed at the cultivator that had first mocked Gong Xiaotian, "As for him over there, I''m actually thinking of helping Brother Gong to teach him a lesson. Do you mind at all?"

    In a split second, Ji Yuan had quickly diverted the focus of attention from himself to the other cultivator.

    "Hmph!" The cultivator that was now at the center of the attention hummed coldly, "Who do you think you are that you think that you can teach me a lesson? Do you know who I am and my status in my celestial fraternity?"

    With a sudden sh of light, Ji Yuan had waved his hand and two superior divine swords had suddenly shed into the ground in front of everyone.

    Almost all the cultivators had dropped their jaws when they saw one saintly-step divine sword and one immortal-step divine sword in front of them¡­

    Just when many of them were thinking that this Ji Yuan was not able to wield two superior divine swords, he had suddenly lifted both superior divine swords into his hands as he eximed loudly, "Try me then!"

    Many of the cultivators, including Gong Xiaotian almost dropped their jaws again; it was because even a celestial-step divine sword is extremely difficult to wield with just profound strength alone and merely lifting it will reveal the full profound strength of the cultivator.

    At this moment they can all see that Ji Yuan is a peaked great saint.

    Just as they were all looking with disbelief, they were further startled to see that there were two divine halo on both of Ji Yuan''s divine swords.

    He had a perfect divine harmony with both divine swords!

    Even the maidens in Ji Yuan''s party were startled; they had never known that Ji Yuan had a perfect divine harmony with his immortal-step divine sword. Didn''t he say he will give this immortal-step divine sword to Qianxue?

    Ji Yuan had actually achieved a second divine halo on his immortal-step divine sword after he had taken Fairy Anyang as his spirit consort.

    Xiang Li was giggling to Fairy Anyang, "So you''ve decided to be fully bonded with him now?"

    Fairy Anyang looked shyly away, "I don''t want him to die or I''ll be screwed. That''s all."

    Many of the cultivators were muttering with shock;

    "Even a divine halo is something to be celebrated and it will take a lifetime to achieve¡­"

    "He has a double divine harmony¡­"

    "And on both divine swords¡­"

    "I can''t believe that he has the profound strength to lift two divine swords¡­"

    "His profound strength must be insane¡­"

    "Is he also a power cultivator?"

    Actually Ji Yuan''s profound strength was not as strong as these cultivators had thought; he had first divine harmonized with his divine sword before it got evolved into a superior divine sword. So it was not as taxing to his profound strength aspared to the others.

    As for his current immortal-step sword, when he had first got it, he had also divine harmonized with it.

    But even then, this was not enough but Ji Yuan had the profound strength of his sword spirit to aid him to wield his saintly divine sword and his immortal-step divine sword. Moreover he had two sword spirits to do the heavy lifting for him now.

    But all the other cultivators would not know because they were all thinking along a straight line. They were all thinking if they could obtain a saint-step divine sword, how long must they meditate upon it before they could even divine harmonized with their divine swords?

    In the Celestial Realm, even a great saint cultivator may find it extremely difficult to wield a celestial-step divine sword.

    There were many stories of many celestial ns that had a divine sword but because theycked the profound strength to wield it, they had to keep it hidden and even had to spend centuries and even thousands of years to ponder over it, hoping that they may one day be able to divine harmony with it.

    Even a heaven-step divine sword will require a cultivator to be a saint first before they have the profound strength to wield it.

    The only way for these requirements to be lowered down are several; either the cultivator has a sword spirit to aid them or they have reached oneness with their swords. However only the sword cultivators and sword saints have a higher chance to reach oneness with their swords.

    But no matter if Ji Yuan was a Sword Saint or a Power Cultivator, none of the cultivators that were presented were willing to provoke him now, especially when he also had a dangerous looking golden robe on him.

    The same cultivator that had just insulted Ji Yuan panicky said, "Actually Brother Ji Yuan, I didn''t say that I didn''t believe that you''re the greatest hero here. I actually believe that you are! Haha."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan frowned; he has not even disyed his two sword spirits yet and this cultivator is already conceding?

    Many of the cultivators were nowughing jovially, "Great Hero Ji Yuan, we''ve never doubt you in the first ce!"

    These cultivators were the ones that were mocking Ji Yuan earlier and they were now pretending that the incident earlier had never happened before.

    Many of them were already considering Ji Yuan to be more powerful than Gong Xiaotian now.

    But Ji Yuan grinned, "Whoever disagree that Brother Gong should be the leader has to first get past my swords first."

    Many of the cultivators were cheering for Ji Yuan now, especially the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.

    Many of the cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity had never seen Ji Yuan before but when they had suddenly heard that he was the beardless Ji Yuan, they were quite startled; even though they had never seen him before but they had heard of his exploits before.

    Many of the proud female cultivators were suddenly smiling in the direction of Ji Yuan.

    Gong Xiaotian weakly said, "Brother Ji Yuan is too humble. The two of us are actually co-leaders."

    Then he said fiercely to all the cultivators, "Anyone that wants to have a different opinion can voice out now."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Yea!"

    "I have something to say." Yun Chi had suddenly chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This maiden has a most dangerous mouth¡­

    Gong Xiaotian asked curiously, "You want to have a second opinion?"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "I am just curious if I can be a co-leader as well?"

    Ji Yuan, Gong Xiaotian and everyone: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian was thinking that since this Yun Chi was a friend of Ji Yuan so he had better let him decide. "As long as Brother Ji Yuan does not disagree, why not?"

    Thest thing that he wanted was any troubles that could screw his chances of obtaining the Fallen Gods Relic.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually a little afraid of this Yun Chi after witnessing her pleasant words that he decided that he had better not provoke her anymore.

    So he smiled weakly to say, "Why not?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "But I''m not as strong as a cultivator as the two of you. Other than my beautiful look, I''ve nothing to contribute as a leader."

    Gong Xiaotian, Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This Yun Chi is purposely setting them a difficult question, the two of them are both thinking at the same time.

    Many of the male cultivators wereughing quietly as they murmured softly; we don''t mind a beautiful vase as a leader at all¡­

    Ji Yuan and Gong Xiaotian were both looking at each other, not knowing how to answer her and at the same time they would be able to preserve their manly prides in front of these hundreds of cultivators.

    If they allow a weaker cultivator like Yun Chi to assume the leadership role then they may have a riot in their hands and these cultivators are not weak at all. If Yun Chi can be a leader, why not the rest?

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan chuckled loudly, "Anyone that is here won''t be a weak cultivator. Since Maiden Yun Chi wants to be a co-leader, Brother Gong and I naturally won''t oppose it. But we need to be fair to all the cultivators here. You can challenge Maiden Yun Chi to a duel if you want to be a co-leader."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan wasughing silently; he had decided to be mean and today he was not going to be a gentleman of the sword.

    Screw her!

    Even Gong Xiaotian was stunned by Ji Yuan''s suggestion as he thought; aren''t they friends?

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly as she quietly put her fingers onto her upper face mask, "I do agree with Great Hero Ji Yuan here. This sounds fair¡­"

    With her deft fingers, she had removed her mask and all the cultivators, including Ji Yuan were blinking their golden eyes with great astonishment.

    It was not because she was ugly but on the contrary, she was very beautiful, very beautiful. Much beautiful than everyone had thought.

    All the cultivators could tell that this Maiden Yun Chi was a really attractive maiden, with beautiful rosy small lips and dedicated facial features.

    But when they saw her peerless look now, they were all blown away by her breathtaking demeanor; she looked perfect in many ways.

    Many of the cultivators had seen many beautiful maidens before but this Yun Chi was like an alluring vixen that could charm everyone by her subtle expressions in her eyes and smiles alone.

    Her beautiful golden eyes had a hidden alluring smile and everyone was seemingly drawn to her golden eyes.

    When Ji Yuan saw her peerless looks, half of his rage against her vaporized and he was feeling a little regretful that he was now screwing her in front of the others.

    Xiang Li giggled shyly, "Big Brother, so are you going to bring her into the harem?"

    But Ji Yuan did not reply to Xiang Li because he was so drawn by Yun Chi''s enticing looks that he was admiring her instead.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "So do I have a challenger? I am definitely not a strong cultivator at all. Rather, I hope to contribute to our group in other ways¡­"

    Many of the male cultivators, including Ji Yuan were thinking; maybe you can contribute to us in the bed chamber¡­

    Actually Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had almost stepped out to teach this Yun Chi a lesson but when they had heard her saying that she was hoping to contribute to the group, they had second thoughts; thest thing that they had wanted was to contribute to the group other than to their own party.

    Moreover the shimmering red portal was about to be fully opened.

    Ji Yuan had almost panicked when he suddenly saw that Qianfeng and Sisi had stepped lightly forward and were about to remove their curtain veils to fight Yun Chi.

    Luckily for him, they seemed to stop in the nick of time or else this would soon turn into a battle of the three peerless maidens.

    When Gong Xiaotian saw the muted silence, heughed weakly. "Then it is decided then. Maiden Yun Chi shall be our third co-leader."

    Then he quickly said, "The portal is now opened. We should go inside now. Remember that we are a group!"

    All the cultivators nodded as they took a second nce at Yun Chi who maintained her pleasant smiles as she gracefully put back her upper face mask.

    Before she had fully worn back her mask, she took a smiling second nce at Ji Yuan. "I''ve told you that we will be in the same party."

    Ji Yuan scratched his face, not knowing what to say¡­

    There were several cold humming sounds behind him and he knew that it was made by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and he could even hear Feng Minyue humming softly!

    He protested weakly, "I didn''t exactly want to invite her into our party, you know. This situation is a little unexpected to me. We''re all here to take the trial. There is no need to be bothered by her¡­"

    Wait a minute! Why am I defending her now?

    It was not only Ji Yuan but many of the male cultivators also had second thoughts about humiliating Yun Chi earlier.

    They had all thought of humiliating her and to teach her a mean lesson but somewhat, they were all seemingly charmed by her pleasant words and they could not bring themselves to step forward to challenge her lest they be a public enemy of everyone in the group.

    Yun Chi smiled to Ji Yuan, "So shall we enter the portal together?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Why not?"

    Fairy Anyang sighed to Xiang Li, "These men are always thinking with their lower bodies."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Me too."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 348 Greed Isle (1)

    Ji Yuan and his party had immediately followed Gong Xiaotian lead into the portal.

    Much to Ji Yuan amusement, Yun Chi had followed side by side with him as well.

    The reason why he was amused was that Yun Chi was surrounded by the animosities of the six maidens in his party but she seemed unbothered by it.

    He was actually frowning; how did she manage to put on her pleasant smiles even under this situation?

    But he had no time to think over it; he had already entered into the portal which showed an image of an ind within it.

    As soon as he had stepped into the shimmering red portal, a beam of light was guiding him to the ind and he found himself flying toward it.

    He was praying; this light has better not break halfway. I don''t want to drop into the waters below because I can''t swim at all¡­

    At the same time he was astonished by the endless body of water below; this is an ocean?

    He had never seen an ocean before in his life.

    He was not the only light that was flying toward the ind. There were hundreds of lights flying at the same time.

    Within the light that were shing all around him, he could see Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing, Yun Chi, Gong Xiaotian as well as all the other cultivators that had gathered in the hallway.

    Suddenly a voice echoed in the spatial space around them;

    "This is the Greed Ind, your next trial location¡­"

    <o>,m "There will be five factions this time; Red, Blue, Green, Yellow and White¡­"</o>

    "You will be assigned to the Green Faction this time¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly saw that a green armlet had appeared around his wrist and there was a number on it.

    404.

    He was frowning all of a sudden; Die and die?

    "Your objective is to obtain a piece of the Fallen God Relic from the Greed Ind. In the Red Mansion, you''ve toplete the trials three times in order toplete the Fallen God Relic. Once you''vepletely collected the Fallen God Relic, you will be able to leave the Red Mansion¡­"

    "You are allowed to use the Escape Talisman to exit the Greed Ind but you will not be allowed to re-enter the trial here¡­"

    "The portal here will be closing soon¡­"

    "The Fallen God Relic is located in the middle of the Ind¡­"

    "The faction that can obtain it first will be the victor of this trial¡­"

    "Good luck to your trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled when he had heard the trial spirit announcement.

    So the Fallen God Relic here is actually a fragment and we have to collect it three times in order toplete the full Fallen God Relic?

    And we have five factions here?

    That means that we have four otherpeting factions?

    All of a sudden he had realized why when the trial portal had first opened, the cultivators were informing all the others; it was because they needed all the extra manpower in their faction.

    He quickly analyzed that the factions are imbnce in the first ce and the faction with the most number of strong cultivators would likely to emerge as the ultimate victor.

    He was suddenly frowning when he had realized another thing; the factions'' colors are not permanent. In the Red Mansion, depending on where the cultivators are at the point of the trial opening, they will then be assigned a random faction color.

    That means that today friends will be tomorrow''s enemies.

    Hundreds of lightnded on the shores of the Greed Ind at the same time and Ji Yuannded softly on the sandy beach.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing had allnded at the same time as well.

    And Yun Chi as well.

    There was another maiden that hadnded next to Ji Yuan and she was so startled when she saw Ji Yuan that she returned a soft gasp before fleeing away quickly.

    She is the Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; I can''t eat you up. Why are you so scare of me¡­

    All the maidens saw what had happened and Ling Feiyue was the first to ask, "Do you know her? Who is she? You seem to have many friends everywhere you go."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "I am well-traveled."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    "Haha¡­"

    The rest of the maidens in his party who had overheard him: ¡­

    Ji Yuan quickly regrouped with the maidens in his party but he was soon frowning when Yun Chi had also approached him.

    "Why? You do not seem to wee me?" Yun Chi smiled.

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Actually all of us do not wee you."

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "I do not mind at all."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Actually, I do not wee you as well."

    Yun Chi disyed more chuckles, "I do not mind either."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian raised his internal profound strength to echo vibrantly to everyone, "Listen up, everyone! Some of you may be taking part in this trial for the very first time and there are some hidden rules about the trial that you ought to know first."

    Everyone: ???

    Gong Xiaotian exined, "All of you may have already noticed that we have an armlet on us as well as a number, am I right?"

    Many of the cultivators began to nod lightly...

    Gong Xiaotian continued, "Now our numbers are very important. My number here is 101."

    Some of the cultivators that had not been checking their numbers were now looking at the number on their armlet now;

    Ling Feiyue: 77

    Little Princess: 3

    Bai Qianfeng: 200

    Shui Xisi: 106

    Feng Minyue: 12

    Yu Jingjing: 5

    Yun Chi: 1

    Many of the cultivators were now muttering among themselves or checking the numbers on one another.

    Gong Xiaotian echoed again. "The number 404 is the most important number. Only the number 404 can retrieve the Fallen God Relic from the stone page. It is because it symbolizes the great spiritual journey which will end in spiritual enlightenment for the cultivator."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and saw that the maidens were all staring at the number on his armlet which had the number 404 on it.

    He was very sure that 404 means ''die and die.''

    Gong Xiaotian turned extremely solemn, "If our number 404 cultivator dies, we still have a chance to obtain the Fallen God Relic by adding our numbers to 404. However that will be ourst resort."

    "Now may I know who has the number 404 here?" Gong Xiaotian turned to the three hundred cultivators that were presented.

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "I''ve the number 404 here."

    Gong Xiaotian turned to look solemnly at Ji Yuan, "Then we have to protect you all the way until we are able to reach the stone page that is in the middle of the Greed Ind."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I''m not a maiden. Do I need any protection?"

    Yun Chi turned in his direction to smile pleasantly, "I''ll try my very best to protect you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered back almost incoherently, "I may be jinxed by the fourth wall so be careful that the page cannot be found¡­"

 Chapter 349 Greed Isle (2)

    Gong Xiaotian gave the instructions to form the green faction into ten teams of around thirty cultivators or more.

    He exined, "We should stay in close proximity to one another but we cannot stick too close in case there is a mishap."

    Even though Ji Yuan was a co-leader but he was happy to let Gong Xiaotian gave the instructions since he actually knew nothing about the trial or any useful strategies for this trial."

    The same goes for Yun Chi as well.

    Gong Xiaotian said coolly, "Then we can draw lots to quickly form the teams. Ji Yuan''s team shall be the 10th team and the rest of us should ensure that we can safely protect him until the very end¡­"

    "Brother Gong." Ji Yuan chuckled. "I''ve a request."

    Gong Xiaotian looked into Ji Yuan''s direction: ???

    Ji Yuan pointed at Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing before saying. "My friends here and I are one team."

    He did not want to tell anyone that some of them are actually his consorts lest the cultivators would suspect that he has a cheat.

    Since Gong Xiaotian did not want to offend Ji Yuan and this was a reasonable request, he quickly smiled. "Alright then."

    "I''ll like to be in the same team as Great Hero Ji Yuan too." Yun Chi smiled pleasantly.

    Gong Xiaotian: ..

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was about to protest when he had suddenly remembered that this Yun Chi had a sharp tongue and it may backfire on him like in their previous rounds of verbal exchanges.

    Eager to start on the trial and also because he did not want any further dys, he decided to keep his mouth shut.

    Someone has to go keep a close eye on the beautiful butt of this Yun Chi and Ji Yuan has decided that the man will be him instead.

    Yeah, that''s right. He had decided.

    Even Xiang Li seemed to be echoing his thoughts by giggling, "Since she wants to be in the same team as Big Brother, we can keep a close eye on her. It is better to have an enemy within reach than in the darkness."

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, well said! This is my exact sentiments too!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered, "Both of you areme."

    Gong Xiaotian slowly said, "Since co-leader Maiden Yun Chi has said so, so let it be then¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" A bearded cultivator had suddenly stepped forward and he had an ugly look on his face.

    Gong Xiaotian frowned, "What is it? Are you not happy with my decision?"

    All three hundred cultivators here have a lofty status in their celestial fraternities and are all cultivators with pride. Therefore Gong Xiaotian knew that they would be constantly interrupting and questioning his decisions. He had already seen quite a lot in his previous three attempts.

    And he knew this bearded cultivator as Saint Ximen Wudi and they had fought in the same team as well as on the opposing side previously.

    This Ximen Wudi is definitely not a pushover and he is also a powerful cultivator as well.

    Ximen Wudi said mightily, "I want to be in Team 10 as well."

    He was already looking lecherously at Yun Chi and the six maidens that were with Ji Yuan, "I hope that Saint Gong Xiaotian will be able to grant my request!"

    When he had said that, he had actually opened the inner floodgates of the many cultivators presented;

    "I want to be in Team 10 as well!"

    "It will be our pleasure to travel with so many beauties and see what they look like behind their curtain veils¡­"

    "Let me join Team 10 as well¡­"

    "Hey, I''ve said it first¡­"

    All of a sudden half of the cultivators were all shouting madly at one another and the situation was almost out of control; swords were being drawn now and furious profound animus were being disyed¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was blinking his golden eyes¡­

    What the heck had just happen?

    Are they all trying to green me?!

    Yun Chi saw his expressions and said in a low voice, "Can''t you see? They¡­"

    "You want to say that they want to join my team because of your charms?" Ji Yuan interrupted unhappily.

    He had already known what Yun Chi was about to say because this was amon line that the maidens like to use.

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "You are such a lewd fellow for saying that. You may look honest but your eyes are not honest at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong wrongs. In what way am I lewd? And I always have honest eyes."

    When Ling Feiyue and the other maidens in his party had heard him, they were all rolling their eyes¡­

    Ji Yuan never got any honest eyes¡­

    "I actually want to say that these men all want to join your team because it is the safest team. All the other teams have to protect Team 10 and that is the reason why I''m joining your team because I am such a vulnerable maiden." Yun Chi giggled softly.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; he hadpletely misunderstood the situation because he had a green tunnel vision.

    So all these cultivators were all fighting to get into Team 10 because they were all trying to take lesser risks.

    Now this makes sense.

    All the other teams have to support Team 10 in order to reach the stone page in the middle of the Greed Ind. Therefore it makes sense that only Team 10 has the highest odds in reaching the final destination.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was shouting loudly, "Silence everyone!"

    All the cultivators were now looking at Ji Yuan with a perplexed look and themotions had died all of a sudden.

    Seeing that he had got the attention of all the cultivators, he said coldly. "You can only join Team 10 only if you''re a weak and vulnerable maiden."

    Then he grinned mockingly, "Or unless you''re just a eunuch without any traces of manly pride and is a beta cultivator."

    All of a sudden all the men kept quiet because none of them wanted to admit that they were beta cultivators. In their proud hearts, they were all the alpha cultivators instead.

    Seeing the deadly silence, Gong Xiaotian said. "It is decided then that only the maidens will have a chance to draw lots to join Team 10. If you''re a man then you will be in the vanguard team."

    Ji Yuan turned to grin at Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    He was already prepared to be receiving praises from them from handling the situation so well that he was now saying proudly, "Sometimes this takes a little wisdom to handle such a messy situation¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is only trying to get all the maidens into his team¡­"

    "He is indeed lecherous¡­"

    "Does he really have honest eyes?"

    "He doesn''t even look honest at all¡­"

    "He is too badass to think of something like this¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all muttering to one another at the same time but they made sure that Ji Yuan could hear them.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 350 Greed Isle (3)

    It did not take long for the ten teams to be formed.

    Twenty other maidens soon joined Ji Yuan''s team. His team had less than thirty cultivators altogether to keep the vanguard teams stronger.

    Altogether, there were seven main vanguard teams that consisted of forty cultivators while there were two weaker teams of thirty cultivators that would move at the end to safeguard Team 10 backside.

    When the twenty maidens joined Ji Yuan''s team, he was quite startled to see Silver Maiden Qin Shuang again.

    Seeing that she was not able to excuse herself again, she humbly paid her respect to Ji Yuan again as she said quietly. "Silver Maiden Qin Shuang of the Celestial Orthodox Sect pays my respect to Master Ji Yuan."

    When she had introduced herself, it was only then that Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and the rest know who she was.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were caught exchanging looking at each other by Ji Yuan who frowned, "It is not what you''re thinking."

    It was obvious to him that they were second guessing that he may have a rtionship with this Silver Maiden Qin Shuang.

    Naturally it was precisely what Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were thinking.

    Even Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were also thinking the same; if Ji Yuan can bed the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue in the Celestial Orthodox Sect then he is also capable of bedding the other maidens in the Celestial Orthodox Sect. After all, this Silver Maiden Qin Shuang was also quite a pretty face.

    Silver Maiden Qin Shuang said slowly, "I know that I''ve offended Master Ji Yuan dearly in the past. I am willing to ept your punishments but please allow me toplete my trials in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth first."

    Actually Ji Yuan hadpletely forgotten about her and even her name.

    He did not even harbor any hatred toward her because she was just doing her duty as punishment elder.

    Although her methods for whipping and insulting him were extreme but Ji Yuan had merely pretended to be in great pain in order to rack his brains for an escape n.

    Although he never had the chance to do so but he was sure his acting was really very convincing because this Silver Maiden Qin Shuang had a really guilty look on her now.

    When she was whipping Ji Yuan for weeks at that time, Ji Yuan was already a golden celestial therefore he was able to close his wounds quickly.

    But because he was trying to pretend to be a second rate cultivator, he had purposely dyed his regeneration until an appropriate timing where no one was looking at him. Hence he had given her the impression that he was in insufferable pain.

    Because he was covered with his own blood, he was able to fool the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Celestial Orthodox Sect with his acting.

    Silver Maiden Qin Shuang sighed softly as she continued, "I''ve vited your holy body. I know that it is futile to plead for your forgiveness¡­"

    All the maidens were staring at Ji Yuan now and were silently questioning; what does she mean by viting your holy body?

    Ji Yuan panicky interrupted, "The past is over now. You can put it aside. I was never in pain but in ecstasy¡­"

    All of a sudden he had suddenly realized he had said the wrong word when he had mentioned the word ''ecstasy'' so he quickly corrected himself, "I mean that you''re just doing your duty at that time and I was filled with great love for your Sacred Maiden Qianxue. Now that Qianxue has returned to the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the past is not worth mentioning. We''re on the same side. Haha¡­"

    Silver Maiden Qin Shuang nodded lightly, unsure if Ji Yuan was serious about forgiving her because she saw that Ji Yuan now had an awkward look on his face.

    Ji Yuan was actually awkward because he had identally said the wrong words and he saw that the six maidens in his party were all looking at him for an exnation; they were all thinking that this Qin Shuang may have vited Ji Yuan''s body somehow¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered, "This is really not what you''re all thinking."

    Silver Maiden Qin Shuang misunderstood Ji Yuan and she quickly said, "You can whip me to your heart''s content and I won''t resist you."

    This time Shui Xisi could not resist gasping, "Ji Yuan, you''re a masochist?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''m not and surely you know best." He frowned.

    But all of a sudden he had realized that he had asked the wrong person when Shui Xisi was nodding, "Yea, I think so¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi who had been listening all this while, suddenly smiled. "I wonder what it is like to vite the holy body of the Great Hero Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She is purposely making it worse for me¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The Greed Ind was actually muchrger than Ji Yuan had expected.

    Gigantic red wood trees towering hundreds of meters, giant ferns and mushrooms dotted the entirendscape as the Green Faction moved ind.

    Many of the cultivators were nervous when they saw the dense canopy and the uneasy terrain.

    This included Ji Yuan as he muttered, "This ind won''t sink all of a sudden, am I right?"

    He was not the only one who was thinking about this.

    The many female cultivators in his team were all thinking about the same thing as they felt uneasy knowing that they were on an ind that was being surrounded by an ocean of water.

    The cultivators of the Celestial Realm dwell on top of the mountains where the spiritual aura is strong which they drawn upon for their cultivation advancement.

    Below the mountains are the ''oceans'' of deste mists where the deste beasts dwell and it is also the boundary where the deste aura is stronger than the spiritual aura at which the no cultivators would be able to dwell for long below.

    There arekes on the mountains and somekes are even vast but many of the cultivators have never even seen a bigke in their lives before.

    And like Ji Yuan, many of the cultivators did not know how to swim.

    There were five teams that were ahead of them while two teams were nking them. At the same time, there were another two teams that were at their back.

    Ji Yuan''s team, Team 10, was in the middle.

    Ling Feiyue giggled to Ji Yuan, "This looks like an easy trial. I really can''t believe that this is an S Rank Trial. Maybe it is because the objective is hard to obtain and hence, that''s why."

    "I beg to differ." Ji Yuan frowned. "This trial isn''t as easy as it looks."

    Ling Feiyue was startled and so were Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    Ling Feiyue whispered as she gave Ji Yuan a curious look, "You''ve discovered something?"<sub> </sub>

    Even though the seven of them were all in Team 10 but they had maintained a social distance from the rest, especially from Yun Chi.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he disyed his armlet to them, "Did you see the color of my armlet. It is green and I''ve got an ominous feeling about this. Green is definitely not my favorite color¡­"

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng''s green cockatiel had gged its wings to protest and was about to attack Ji Yuan but was reined by Qianfeng soft gentle whispers, "Easy, he doesn''t mean you."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all rendered speechless as well.

    What kind of logic is that?

    Ling Feiyue really did not know how to say on this about Ji Yuan''s analysis; it is because every time she had doubted Ji Yuan, she was proven wrong.

    All of a sudden there were screams by the hidden teams ahead and the growls of the deste beasts could be heard.

    Ji Yuan and his team were all rmed as they quickly unsheathed their swords.

    Bai Qianfeng quickly extended her divine sense to the directions of the screams before she quickly whispered, "Seventh rank profound deste beasts, by the dozens!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So many? Why didn''t the teams ahead avoid these deste beasts¡­"

    All of a sudden a dozen gigantic deste armored spiders had dropped from the tall canopy of the trees, startling Ji Yuan and his team below.

    "Seventh Rank Deste Profound Monsters!"

    "Everyone, be careful!"

    "These deste monsters are able to conceal their deste aura till the moment of their strikes¡­"

    Ji Yuan and his party had all brandished their weapons as they prepared themselves to meet the new threats.

    The vicinity soon exploded with their profound energies and attacks against the gigantic deste armored spiders.

    Ji Yuan shouted furiously as he disyed a barrage of sword strikes against the rapid strikes of an armored deste spider. "Everyone, run!"

    This was the most proper tactical decision;

    Every one of these armored deste spiders had an agility that was greater than most of the cultivators here and their profound strength even exceeded the saint cultivators. One fatal strike and the injured saint cultivator would be consumed by them.

    Moreover there were a lot of these seventh rank profound armored spiders too. In order to have a reasonable chance, they would need at least five cultivators to support one another.

    As a matter of fact, in just a few blinks of an eye, two female cultivators were quickly killed outright.

    And many of the female cultivators were injured and they were already burning the Escape Talisman in a desperate bid to escape.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all taking evasive maneuvers as the armored spiders shed rapidly to attack them, shattering their profound energies with just a mighty flicker of their long spikey legs.

    Bai Qianfeng had released her two spirit pets from their restricted forms as they transformed into two seventh rank profound monsters tobat the deste armored spiders.

    Ji Yuan saw that Yu Jingjing was in danger so he quickly shed ahead with his two divine swords as he rammed into an armored spider to send it flying against a towering tree with a thunderous impact.

    "Jingjing, grab my hand!"

    Yu Jingjing flushed lightly as she quickly caught hold of Ji Yuan''s hand.

    The deste armored spider had already recovered from Ji Yuan''s attack and the minor wounds that it had received had already regeneratedpletely.

    An illusion of dozens of strikes had appeared over Ji Yuan as the deste armored spider shed toward him.

    Ji Yuan quickly disyed a barrage of explosive sword energies bursts to dissipate the profound illusionary attacks of the deste armored spider and in the next instant, he had beat a strategic retreat.

    He shouted to everyone, "Go ahead of me! I will cover your back!"

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had moved next to him, "We will fight alongside with you!"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "I will be fine. Go please and help me to protect the rest. I will buy us some time. Trust me."

    "But¡­"

    "No but!" Ji Yuan pushed them back with his profound strength.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi reluctantly nodded.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue gasped, "Ji Yuan, please be careful."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he quickly disyed his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as five deste armored spiders began to approach rapidly.

    The vicinity immediately exploded with his profound energies of his sword.

    Three of the deste armored spiders were partially hit by his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as his profound sword energies melted through into their protective profound animus.

    However none of it was fatal and the minor wounds on the three deste armored spiders were quickly healed by their inherent rapid regeneration ability.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he shed out of harm''s way as hundreds of profound strikes rained upon him by the five deste armored spiders.

    He weakly shouted back as he barely parried the attacks, "If you''re a real man,e one to one with me!"

    And seven more deste armored spiders had already appeared.

    Ji Yuan cursed softly; he calls for a one to one and seven more of these deste armored spiders hade...

    Not only were these deste armored spiders fast, they were also protected by the thick canopies so much that Ji Yuan was not confident that he could catch them with his profound sword arts.

    So he decided to make ast stand in an old fashion way, with the profound might of his swords.

    He knew that he had to buy his party as much time as possible; he could not flee for long because these deste armored spiders were too fast in their movements.

    All of a sudden more than sixty cultivators from the two rear teams had arrived at the scene.

    Ji Yuan''s golden eyes were suddenly beaming with hope; his reinforcements had finally arrived!

    There were panicky cries from the sixty cultivators when they saw that their opponents numbered some twelve seventh rank deste profound armored spiders;

    "Run!"

    "Everyone run for your lives!"

    "Seventh rank profound monsters!"

    "We can''t fight these monsters. They are too numerous¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 351 Greed Isle (4)

    Ji Yuan finally got his chance when he managed to iste one of the five deste armored spiders that were on his tail.

    He was cursing furiously earlier when he thought that his reinforcements hade.

    He had estimated that sixty cultivators would be able to stand a good chance against the twelve armored spiders in the vicinity as the cultivators outnumbered the deste armored spiders 5:1.

    This was the chance that he thought was reasonable for them to ovee these deste armored spiders.

    This 5:1 was much higher than the 2:1 chance that his Team 10 was facing earlier.

    His Team 10 actually had only 28 cultivators; quite a few had died immediately at the start of the ambush and quite a few had used their Escape Talismans.

    That was why Ji Yuan had ordered a strategic retreat for the time being because he did not want to risk the lives of his team, especially his beloveds.

    But to his astonishment, his reinforcements had actually shouted that they were being outnumbered by the deste armored spiders and had fled like the winds.

    He had clearly underestimated one thing; none of the cultivators had the motivation to be a cannon fodder for the others since they did not know one another nor can they trust the other cultivator to be their strong support.

    But still Ji Yuan found himself drawing five of the deste armored spiders away from them and he was now battling one of the deste armored spiders.

    He had disyed his sword spirits with his divine swords as he turned his body around to attack the deste armored spiders.

    He charged straight into the dozens of illusionary strikes that were being disyed by the deste armored spider.

    Dozens of strikes were exchanged in an instant before Ji Yuan shed straight into the face of the deste armored spider.

    Using exactly thirty strokes, he had cut through the profound defenses of the deste armored spider while receiving five deadly wounds at the same time before finally killing the monster.

    Ji Yuan coughed out a bout of bad blood as he quickly gathered his profound energies to treat his wounds.

    "Big Brother, are you alright?" Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang asked at the same time.

    Even Fairy Anyang was calling Ji Yuan her Big Brother out of concern now.

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly as he heaved softly, "My two divine swords are too powerful. I didn''t really expect to win after only thirty strokes."

    Then he examined his golden robe, "And thank goodness for this robe as well."

    His golden robe had greatly enhanced his profound defenses. Even though he had received three deadly wounds, the robe had protected him from losing his arms and legs.

    At the same time, the ripped robe was quickly weaving by itself and repairing its surface damages, even stopping his bleedings.

    He smiled bitterly as he looked at his robe, "Now I''ve finally known how the rich cultivators can afford to be so arrogant. That is because they can afford it."

    Ji Yuan did not hesitate for too long in the same spot.

    He was running a guerri battle with the four remaining deste armored spiders.

    Finally he got the second one as well; it took him forty strokes while receiving four fatal wounds.

    His speed was obviously slowing down.

    But Ji Yuan did not slow down in his movements and he was soon engaging the third deste armored spider; killing it with fifty strokes while receiving five fatal wounds.

    He soon killed the fourth deste armored spider; killing it with sixty strokes while receiving six fatal wounds.

    Soon the fifth deste armored spider was also killed by him but this time it had taken him only twenty strokes because he was now able to fully focus on this one target. At the same time, he did not take any more fatal wounds because he was now able to see the attacks of the deste armored spiders clearly.

    But the entire battle left him covered with his golden blood as he staggered weakly to look for his team.

    He was popping healing profound pills and regaining profound pills like candies now.

    He was quite anxious for his team because he was sure that there were more of these seventh deste monsters around.

    No wonder this was an S Rank Trial.

    All of a sudden he paused in his tracks because his sharp golden eyes could see someone ahead of him.

    He walked silently to a clearing and saw an extremely charming maiden in red dress sitting on top of a tree branch and she wasughing softly to herself.

    Ji Yuan had naturally recognized her as Yun Chi.

    But what caught him by surprise was that there were two carcasses of the deste armored spiders lying around her and they were ripped apart by sharp des.

    However Yun Chi did not seem to be carrying any sharp divine weapons nor did she have any blood strain on her.

    But if she was not the yer of these two deste armored spiders then who may it be?<sub> </sub>

    "Who is that?" She was suddenly rmed and she had stared coldly in the direction where Ji Yuan was hiding.

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he walked into the clearing; he had thought that he was able to conceal his profound aura very well but this Yun Chi was still able to detect him.

    Therefore he knew that she must be a super cultivator.

    One must know that Ji Yuan was not only able to conceal his profound animus when he was sneaking around but he could also control his heart beat so well that he could virtually walk into a nest of powerful deste beasts without them ever hearing his heartbeat.

    Yun Chi began to smile pleasantly when she saw that it was Ji Yuan, "I wonder who it is. So it is Great Hero Ji Yuan. If you are a littlete, I may have been ripped apart by these monsters."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at the ripped bodies of the two deste armored spiders that were in the vicinity, "Maiden Yun Chi really likes to joke with me. You''ve killed these monsters?"

    Yun Chi chuckled jovially, "Not really. These monsters are already heavily injured when I''ve encountered them. Therefore I merely give them a little push to meet their maker."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He doesn''t believe that she would be so lucky to encounter two heavily injured deste armored spiders¡­

    Yun Chi gently leapt off from the tree branch, "Look at poor you. You look really seriously injured. Do you need my help to look at your wounds? I''m actually a good healer."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No, thanks."

    He quickly added, "We need to find the rest of the team. Why are you alone? And where are the rest of them?"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "What if I tell you that I am waiting for you here? Will you believe me?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Why should you be waiting for me here?"

    "Because I think that you are really a handsome cultivator." Yun Chi winked at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi giggled softly, "I''ve thought that you may need some support so I''m waiting here. Are you touched? A weak and vulnerable maiden like me will actually be waiting in the middle of danger for you toe by. Imagine if it isn''t you thate by here and instead it is the monsters then I may have joined my maker even before I can get the chance to see you again."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Lucky it is me."

    "So you''ve managed to kill all five of these nasty monsters that were on your back?" Yun Chi smiled pleasantly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck did she know that I was being chased by five of these deste armored spiders?!

    "I know what you''re thinking." Yun Chi smiled with affectionate eyes, "I saw it earlier but unfortunately I was too weak to aid you and had to run too. Didn''t you ask all of us to run ahead first?"

    Then she giggled, "But I''ve a good heart and I''ve decided to wait for you here at my own risks. Unfortunately I''ve almost meet my maker while waiting for you here."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Her story sounds so convincing and logical but why is that I am not believing her bullshits?

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly at him, "So, do you think that I am more deserving to you than the maidens that are with you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as heughed bitterly, "Let''s go. We shouldn''t dwell in this ce for too long."

 Chapter 352 Greed Isle (5)

    Yun Chi smiled as she asked Ji Yuan, "Why are you in such a hurry? They have the Escape Talisman, you know. So they can''t be in any real dangers."

    But Ji Yuan hadpletely ignored her and had sped quickly ahead; he was anxious for the news of his beloveds. He had greatly underestimated the difficulty of this trial.

    Who the heck had said that Team 10 is the safest?!

    But he soon found Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue, Qin Shuang and the other cultivators from Team 10 in a small clearing.

    He quickly heaved a soft sigh of relief and he was smiling again.

    There were three dead deste armored spiders scattered around them. It seems to him that they did not have a good time either.

    But luckily, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Qianfeng''s two seventh rank monster pets were there.

    He turned to look at the bloodied two monster pets that had already shrink to a small size by now as he muttered, "Thank you!"

    The Green Cocketial hissed at him instead.

    Ji Yuan: ...

    What an unfriendly little green bird...

    Both Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were super cultivators so they had no problem handling one of the deste armored spiders alone. But it was difficult to say for the rest.

    Luckily there were only three of the deste armored spiders and not more or else he would not imagine what would happen.

    The female cultivators in the vicinity were trembling and they were staring at Qianfeng''s two spirit pets with shock; they had not expected that a cultivator would be able to own two seventh rank profound monsters as her spirit pets.

    And it was due to these two spirit pets that had taken the blunt of the attacks from them.

    Actually Qianfeng''s two spirit pets, one is a deste dragon and one is a divine bird; they are often at odds. But today they are actually helping to lick each other wounds.

    At almost the same time, dozens of cultivators from the vanguard teams that were led by Gong Xiaotian had arrived at the scene.

    He heaved a soft sigh of relief when he saw Ji Yuan, "Thanks goodness that you''re alright."

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily, "Where are the vanguards when we need you the most."

    Gong Xiaotian sighed, "We are also entangled by several of the same profound monsters too. We didn''t think that your team will be in any danger yet."

    Then he smiled, "Luckily it is only three deste monsters here and you''re alright."

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "We''ve encountered more than ten of these deste profound monsters."

    Gong Xiaotian looked a little startled, "And you''ve survived?"

    Then he looked around, "Where are the rear teams now? Are they fighting the deste profound monsters now? We need to check on them¡­"

    All of a sudden tens of cultivators began to pour into the vicinity; they were indeed from the two rear teams and they were looking quite exhausted.

    Gong Xiaotian asked them, "What exactly has happened?"

    Ximen Wudi who was in charge of the two rear teams shouted unhappily, "We are ambushed by the deste profound monsters and have almost lost our lives. What are the vanguard teams doing?!"

    Then he pointed at the cultivators behind him, "Do you know that we have lost twenty of our cultivation brothers and sisters in the ambush?!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he had heard him;

    He had clearly remembered that the rear teams were not ambushed. Rather, it was his Team 10 that got ambushed.

    When the two rear teams arrived at the scene, Ximen Wudi and his two teams were all screaming for their lives.

    He had even heard them iming that they were being ''outnumbered'' by the deste profound monsters and they were fleeing in all directions.

    The truth was that the twelve deste profound monsters were being outnumbered by sixty cultivators instead.

    But because they all thought that 5:1 is a bad odd and the first thought was that the deste profound beasts were too numerous.

    After Ji Yuan had lured five of the deste armored spiders away, the sixty cultivators had immediately calmed down.

    An odd of almost 9:1 is a good one and the rear teams began to fight back shortly.

    But still, they had lost twenty of the cultivators during the fight. Not all the cultivators had died and many of them had actually used the Escape Talismans.<sub> </sub>

    Gong Xiaotian said nonchntly, "I can''t help in such a situation. We just need to be more alert. I will assign one team to be attached to Team 10."

    "What about the rear teams?" Ximen Wudi protested immediately.

    Gong Xiaotian smiled coldly, "Justbine the two rear teams into one for now. The vanguard teams are the ones that are fighting and are taking the most risks. We have also lost quite a number of cultivators as well."

    When he had said that, the majority of the cultivators that were in the vanguard teams were staring at Ximen Wudi.

    When Ximen Wudi saw the cold stares, he began to keep quiet as he did not want to offend the majority of the cultivators.

    Gong Xiaotian then chooses the weakest vanguard team of twenty cultivators to be attached to Team 10 since Team 10 was now down to less than twenty cultivators.

    Ji Yuan had kept quiet because he knew that it was unreasonable to pile more pressure upon Gong Xiaotian. After all, he was the one that was being ''protected'' by all the teams and he was in no position to argue with anyone for more ''safety benefits''.

    But after his mood had calmed down, he began to look at Yun Chi quietly; who is she? Is she a super cultivator or just in lucky?

    He asked in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, Anyang, what do you think of this Yun Chi?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, what do you think then?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "You are my inner heart demon and you know of my track records. When ites to women, half of the time my conclusions are the wrong ones."

    Xiang Li chuckled jovially, "So true¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frozen in his tracks because while he was looking at Yun Chi, she had suddenly turned to appraise him with her pleasant smiles.

    "You want to talk to me?" She smiled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Yun Chi, "We''ve thought that you''re dead or fled from this trial when we didn''t find you among us. But you''re actually still alive."

    Yun Chiughed softly, "I''ve thought the same too but luckily Great Hero Ji Yuan had found me and he had rescued me. That is why I am here now."

    Then she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "He is all bloodied because of me."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    ? Everyone from Team 10 had indeed seen Ji Yuan and Yun Chi arriving together.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I did not¡­"

    All the maidens hummed coldly as they walked away, refusing to believe Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he said in his soul sea to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "I didn''t have any mistress but why is that everyone thinks that I am having an affair?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Maybe because Big Brother is too beautiful?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian was now rallying to all the cultivators, "Team 4 shall remain with Team 10 here. Everyone back to your teams! This time the vanguard teams will move at a less rapid pace. After we are out of this dense forest, we will make a make shift camp to treat the injured and to rest. This ce is far too dangerous for us to remain here for long."

    With that he had left the vicinity with many of the cultivators.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to rally his own team to move as well, Qin Shuang had suddenly walked past him with a low whisper. "Great Hero Ji Yuan, I''ve something very important to tell you. I''ll tell you when we''re aler."

    Then she had rejoined the rest of the female cultivators in Team 10.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Xiang Li asked in a hopeful voice, "Maybe she wants to tell you that she likes you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 353 Greed Isle (6)

    A few hourster, Gong Xiaotian had found a ridge that was overlooking the dense forest canopies and had given the order for the cultivators to rest for the night.

    More than a third of the cultivators had injuries on them and they needed a quiet ce to absorb the spiritual aura as profound energies to treat their injuries.

    The vanguard teams had actually encountered more of the deste monsters before they break for camp. But Ji Yuan''s Team 10 and 4 were spared from the encounters.

    And so were thebined rear team.

    Even Ji Yuan had to admit that Gong Xiaotian''s strategies made sense since he was leading the vanguard teams to protect him.

    He was thinking; s! He''s actually a real hero. Look at me. I shouldn''t doubt a nice guy like him. I am so petty. What happened earlier was only an ident. I should look at it if I were in his shoes.

    Immediately after the entire faction had settled down in a defensive circle around the ridge, Ji Yuan was suddenly showered with plenty of affections from Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Yu Jingjing.

    They immediately asked about his injuries and showered him with more profound pills.

    "Haha." Ji Yuan chuckled. "I''ve still got many leftover profound pills¡­"

    "My lord, are you alright?"

    "How are your injuries?"

    "Please take care of yourself!"

    "Sorry, we just don''t like that Yun Chi. She is too cocky¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed and enjoyed their affections; women are sure hard to predict.

    Only Feng Minyue was too shy to disy her affections for Ji Yuan.

    While Ji Yuan was thinking that he had negative impression left for Maiden Feng Minyue now, she on the other hand was also thinking that she had misunderstood and taken Ji Yuan''s words too light on a number of asions; she was also thinking that Ji Yuan had a low impression of her as well.

    Also after she had kissed Ji Yuan on his lips, she still did not know how he had felt about her.

    Even though she had emphasized that it was only a harmless kiss but she had never kissed anyone on the lips before, even if she wanted to repay her gratitude.

    It was only an excuse that she had cooked to test Ji Yuan''s reactions.

    And Ji Yuan was too gentleman.

    She was even thinking, maybe that was because he had liked Yu Jingjing who is also a superior beauty. And his fingers toward Yu Jingjing were not clean and he had outraged Yu Jingjing in front of so many of the maidens.

    If Ji Yuan could hear her thoughts, he would protest bitterly; at that time I was under the influence of the five masculine profound pills and had lost control of my fingers.

    But of course, Feng Minyue would question him why he had not lost control in front of her when she had kissed him.

    Ji Yuan actually respected Feng Minyue a lot and it took him all his willpower to resist doing anything funny to her.

    Although Feng Minyue had tried to hide her feelings from Ji Yuan but the other five maidens were not fools; they have already known that Feng Minyue is interested in Ji Yuan and that they are all watching how the drama is to unfold.

    Ling Feiyue had told Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing not to intervene, just to see how dense Ji Yuan was.

    Moreover as she warned them jokingly, she was also dropping a hint to Shui Xisi that they had all known about Ji Yuan and her.

    Shui Xisi just did not want to admit that she was an item with Ji Yuan even though she had been caught by the other maidens on quite a few asions already.

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng had been following Ji Yuan''s affair with Shui Xisi even before they had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Actually Shui Xisi may look to be a very bold maiden but she is also a very shy maiden; she wants Ji Yuan to profess his love for her boldly and not the other way round.

    Even though Ji Yuan had mentioned he would take her to be his main consort but he was always saying it in a half-joking manner and Xisi felt that he was not sincere at all.

    Moreover Ji Yuan did not know her real status and who she really is.

    She has often cursed Ji Yuan in her heart; You are a buffoon. You''ve no idea how lucky you''re. s, my Sister Feifei and I¡­s¡­are both ruined in your hands."

    Feng Minyue had quietly approached Ji Yuan and said, "Ji Yuan, your injuries are not light at all. I can use my profound energies to hasten your recovery."

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly as he patted his chest, "I''m really alright."

    In front of Feng Minyue, he had to pretend to be a man of steel. In this way, he would earn her respect or else she would think that he is a puss.

    Xiang Li giggled inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Big Brother, if I were you, I would let Maiden Feng massage her fingers all over my body."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, do you know that you are actually some as to think of this low method to win a maiden''s sympathy? Do you know what is a man''s pride?"

    Xiang Li giggled back, "But I''m a maiden. What is a man''s pride?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I don''t want to talk to you for the rest of the night."<sub> </sub>

    Then Ji Yuan pretended to be in great pain, "Ahh, my chest hurts¡­"

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "This master is also quiteme¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, are you alright?" Shui Xisi was the first to answer to Ji Yuan''s chest pain.

    She began to chuckle delightfully as she began to hit Ji Yuan''s chest, "Let me help you with your pain."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are you sure that you are helping to treat my injuries or you are helping to worsening it¡­

    Bai Qianfeng mncholy said to Ji Yuan, "My lord, do you know how anxious I am when you offer yourself to fight these deste monsters on your own. I really wish that I can fight alongside with you. I''m not weak¡­"

    "You''re not weak but we are." Little Princess said quietly. "Ji Yuan is more concern about our lives than his."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly kept quiet; he doesn''t want to reveal his innermost thoughts. He is an alpha male and this is what he is supposed to do for his beloveds!

    Yu Jingjing was smiling, "I am right in choosing you as my lord. Ji Yuan is the hero of my heart."

    Ling Feiyue was holding Ji Yuan''s hand gently and she was also looking with great gentleness at him, "That is why Ji Yuan is our lord."

    Yu Jingjing agreed with a light nod, "That is very heroic of him."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he muttered, "I didn''t really do anything heroic. Haha."

    Then he turned to look at Shui Xisi to say, "After defeating so many seventh rank deste monsters today, I really feel that I''m stronger than Jiajia. She is going to be so in awe of my awesomeness."

    Shui Xisi rolled her eyes before she pinched his chest as she giggled, "I don''t think so."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I don''t believe you either."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    My sister won''t even bat her eyes against these seventh rank deste monsters and she is a stronger cultivator than I am.

    Ji Yuan had no idea that Jiajia had just killed dozens of seventh rank deste monsters when she had gone to seek the Dragon God Longdi for her vendetta while he was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Little Princess suddenly lowered her voice to whisper to everyone, "Actually I''ve an uneasy feeling about this trial. Especially that Yun Chi."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "I, too have an uneasy feeling but I''ve no idea why. She is more dangerous than she looks somehow. This is just my inner feeling."

    "My lord Ji Yuan, you ought to be wary of her and not to be too close to her." Ling Feiyue sighed softly. "I am not against you having more harem but surely you can also tell that all of us can''t even get along with her, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he looked sentimentally at all six maidens as he assured them with heartfelt emotion, "Don''t worry. I''m not interested in her even if she is the most beautiful maiden in the Celestial Realm. Other than my own party, I''ve no interest in the other maidens."

    Feng Minyue was startled as she trembled lightly; did he include me as well? Or I am just the special case.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes had caught the Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang making a pass on him; she had quietly nced in his direction before she had disappeared into the shadows of the surroundings.

    Ji Yuan quickly got up as he said, "Excuse me for a while."

    And he had immediately sped after the trail of the Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang.

    This was not lost on the six maidens because they had all seen Maiden Qin Shuang walking past earlier and she was looking at Ji Yuan.

    And Ji Yuan had so conveniently excused himself.

    Shui Xisi cursed softly, "I''m not going to believe in that badass anymore."

    "A pretty maiden just walk and he has so quickly excused himself to chase after a new skirt." Yu Jingjing was in disbelief.

    Ling Feiyue kicked the ground, "Ji Yuan is too lecherous!"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered, "Did he just say that he has no other interest in the other maidens except for his own party? And he is off to chasing skirts in the next minute."

    Little Princess was shaking her head with soft resignations, "Despite his heavy injuries, he is still capable of thinking with his lower body."

    Then she added, "I just know that there is something between them."

    Ling Feiyue gasped, "Maybe we have misunderstood that Maiden Yun Chi. Rather Ji Yuan is having an affair with this Maiden Qin Shuang instead?"

    "You don''t say." Little Princess frowned. "But Sister Feiyue, I think that you''re right. Didn''t we hear that this Maiden Qin Shuang had vited Ji Yuan''s body earlier? And she was asking Ji Yuan to whip her too..."

    Everyone was gasping all of a sudden when they had recalled the conversations that were between Qin Shuang and Ji Yuan.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "Maybe we should really teach Ji Yuan a lesson instead."

    "Maybe I should help my sisters here to castrate him?" Shui Xisi offered a hopeful suggestion.

    But she was quickly smiling weakly, "Hey, don''t look at me like this. I was only joking¡­"

 Chapter 354 Sly Upon Sly (1)

    When Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang saw Ji Yuan, she immediately said. "Master Ji Yuan, please follow me to a somewhere quiet ce."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he quickly followed her.

    Her footsteps were extremely light and she seemed to be evading the cultivators that were on patrol on purpose.

    Along the way, Ji Yuan saw that it was the cultivators from the rear team that was on patrol; they had been assigned by Gong Xiaotian to patrol the perimeter of their camps.

    Ximen Wudi was overheard grumbling to the cultivators that were with him, "Who does this Gong Xiaotian thinks he is? How dares he order us around."

    A cultivator was also heard humming coldly, "He is indeed too overbearing to us!"

    Another cultivator said, "Actually there is nothing wrong with his strategies¡­"

    "You''re in our team now so everything is wrong with his strategies." Ximen Wudi said coldly. "It is either you are for us or against us."

    All of a sudden Ximen Wudi had caught hold of a female cultivator by her waist, "My little beauty, shall we go elsewhere for a little enjoyment?..."

    The female cultivator did not struggle but merely nodded and Ximen Wudi had lifted her from the ground into his strong arms.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This Ximen Wudi is really a badass cultivator¡­

    Ji Yuan did not stay for too long to eavesdrop upon Ximen Wudi and his group because Qin Shuang had moved quietly into the dense forest canopy.

    So he quickly followed her.

    All of a sudden he had an uneasy thought as they had moved quite far already from the main camp.

    He began to rub his chin to ponder; is she taking me to a quiet ce to vite me?

    Xiang Li was also thinking of the same thing as well, "Big Brother, she is taking you to a quiet ce to bang you?"

    Ji Yuan answered her with a deep frown, "Xiang Li, what is wrong with you. There is nothing but dirty thoughts in your mind."

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "I''m betting that our Lord and Big Brother here is also thinking of the same thing."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Howe she is able to read my mind?

    She is dangerous¡­

    Fairy Anyang asked Ji Yuan, "Are you thinking of something funny right now?"

    "Haha, of course not." Ji Yuan answered sheepishly.

    Ji Yuan and Qin Shuang continued to trend lightly as they moved further and further away from the main camp.

    Qin Shuang was leaping from tree to tree and she was purposely avoiding all the paths.

    Ji Yuan grew more and more suspicious at every passing moment. But still, he continued to follow her as he looked at her butt¡­

    Along the way, Ji Yuan was quite startled to find that there was a lot of hanky-panky that were going on in the darkness.

    There were many couples in the darkness of the perimeter of the camp...

    He even saw Gong Xiaotian with a female cultivator and he had his pants down. And this female cultivator was even from his Team 10...

    Ji Yuan had realized that these cultivators were exchanging their bodies to cement some sort of an alliance.

    But why is she showing me all these?

    Xiang Li giggled, "Is she hinting you something?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "She is trying to show me something¡­"

    Better not tell Xiang Li lest she is corrupted by all these hanky-panky that were going-on.

    All of a sudden Qin Shuang had stopped in her tracks on top of a tall tree as she whispered very softly. "Did you see all that?"

    Ji Yuan nodded lightly, "But what is the point of showing me all these? They are free to make alliances."

    Qin Shuang quietly said as she looked at Ji Yuan with a nervous look, "This is not my first time in this trial."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Oh? Isn''t that good? Then you can be our guide then."

    Qin Shuang looked even more nervous, "There are some cultivators who are also not the first time but they are pretending to be a first timer."

    ? Ji Yuan furrowed his brows, "Why would they do that for?"

    "Like that Maiden Yun Chi too." Qin Shuang slowly said. "I''ve seen her before."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned; the mystery seems to deepen¡­

    Then why did she want to pretend to be a first timer?

    No wait, she has never imed to be a first timer in the first ce¡­

    He was suddenly unhappy that she may be a secret lover of another cultivator; Darn, she didn''t give me her first time here...

    "Gong Xiaotian is not telling you or the other first timers the whole truth as well." Qin Shuang quietly continued.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Qin Shuang exined, "When you reach the site of the stone page, there will be a ck stele to instruct you on how to obtain the Fallen God Relic. He has conveniently missed that out and so did the others. Out of fear from them, I did not dare to tell you earlier."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Don''t tell me that they have conspired to get me? I''ve thought that this Gong Xiaotian is a nice man. But why didn''t they tell me everything? And what is this about?"

    Qin Shuang answered weakly, "There are two things that they didn''t tell you is that one of your Escape Talismans will be consumed. If you don''t have any Escape Talisman, you cannot retrieve the Fallen God Relic even if you have the number 404. This is the hidden rule."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then it means that he would be the only one who would be using up his Escape Talisman? For the greater good of the faction?

    But it doesn''t seem like a big deal¡­

    "This may seem like a minor loss to you if you have three Escape Talismans to spare." Qin Shuang exined weakly. "But you have to remember that we''ve toplete the trials here three times in order to obtain the full Fallen God Relic."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Yeah I know¡­"

    "If the cultivators cannot obtain the number 404, all the other cultivators that add up to 404 will need to use up their Escape Talisman in order for everyone else toplete this trial." Qin Shuang quietly said.

    "Um that is why they are protecting me, right?" Ji Yuan said weakly.

    "On paper, this doesn''t sound wrong." Qin Shuang said solemnly. "But we''re all proven wrong. Because this is an S Rank Trial and is not an easy trial toplete."

    "Exin." Ji Yuan asked weakly.

    "There are other factions too and they will all try to kill the number 404 of the opposing factions." Qin Shuang exined slowly. "The old birds here have all realized that and hence they have evolved the strategies to protect the number 404."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "This makes sense."<sub> </sub>

    Qin Shuang continued. "But when the number 404 is killed, the rest of the factions will need to sacrifice their numbers and their Escape Talismans¡­"

    "And the leaders shall pick the unlucky cultivators for it." Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. He had finally got it.

    He added, "And in order not to be picked by the leaders, many of the cultivators are sacrificing their bodies in order to be gratified by the leaders."

    Qin Shuang was flushing lightly when Ji Yuan had said so in such a blunt manner.

    She quickly said, "Gong Xiaotian is actually not working alone. At least forty cultivators are in his core team. They go everywhere where he goes."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes¡­

    But he was soon smiling, "Well, there is nothing to worry about. I am the number 404 and as long as I''m alive until the veryst, only my Escape Talisman will be used up. It is better for me to sacrifice than the others."

    "Then you will owe Gong Xiaotian a big favor because he has protected you for this time. In the next time, you will be expected to use your number as a favor back should the next number 404 dies." Qin Shuang exined.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "It sounds fair¡­"

    "It sounds fair," Qin Shuang interrupted. "Except that he is using the good man card against you. After using up one of your Escape Talismans, are you still confident of oveing this trial? You''ve seen how dangerous the trial is. But of course, you can still use the Escape Talisman to exit the trialpletely as ast resort."

    Ji Yuan frowned; he can''t use the Escape Talisman because he was quite worried that the Death God Mingwang had setup a sword array outside that would trigger when he had appeared outside.

    Once the sword array has been triggered, he may be caught between a clone of the Death God Mingwang and his true self at the same time, since the Death God Mingwang can sense that his sword array is being triggered and he can use the Escape Talisman instantly appear outside the trial to corner him.

    He doesn''t want to fight the Death God Mingwang until he was sure of winning or unless he had no other choices.

    He can be a real turtle if there is a need and he intended to be a turtle this time.

    Qin Shuang quietly urged him, "I will advise Master Ji Yuan to give up this trial or just spend your time in the Red Mansion. It is because this trial is quite impossible toplete."

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "Thanks for sharing this with me but I won''t give up on this trial."

    Qin Shuang slowly nodded and her petite face looked a little sad as she said. "The second thing that you have to know is that the faction that kills the other faction''s Number 404 will be able to obtain 1 Escape Talisman for the entire faction..."

    Ji Yuan was startled; don''t tell me that I''m in danger from the other cultivators as well?!

    "Also, you may not know this. Gong Xiaotian, Ximen Wudi and many of the cultivators in our faction are actually working in conspiracy with the others from the other factions against our own."

    "Also in thest round, Ximen Wudi is actually the leader of the faction while Gong Xiaotian is the rear leader. They''re actually working together and pretending to be at odds so that they can secretly work with each other."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "This sounds a littleplex. Why do these cultivators love to y politics so much?"

    Qin Shuang weakly said, "It is either you join them or you will be their cannon fodder."

    Ji Yuan muttered in realization, "I see their ns now. They want to kill all the Number 404 for one another and then uses the innocent first timers'' numbers to obtain the Fallen God Relic. In this way, they can obtain an extra Escape Talisman and the Fallen God Relic at the same time."

    He began to frown; Gong Xiaotian is just pretending to be nice to him so that he can gain his trust first before backstabbing him on the backter, depending if he has the opportunitiester. No matter what his ns actually are, he would never suspect him...

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why are you telling all this?"

    "That is because she likes you." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Aren''t you supposed to be gone for the night?" Ji Yuan muttered to Xiang Li in his soul sea before he quickly returned his attention to Qin Shuang.

    "The reason why I''m telling you all these are because I am hoping to make amend for my past acts against you." Qin Shuang slowly said.

    Ji Yuan nodded but he could not resist asking her, "And how did you know so much?"

    Qin Shuang averted her beautiful golden eyes, "You''ve forgotten that I am the Punishment Elder. I have to be observant enough in order extract the useful information to be used in their trials."

    Ji Yuan kept his mouth shut and he resisted the urge to chuckle in this situation; it was because he had fooled her previously so she was actually not as observant as she had thought.

    "Thank you for telling me all these." Ji Yuan grinned. "I was never upset with you. Go in peace."

    He had suddenly seen her in a new light and she was very attractive in his eyes.

    Qin Shuang is actually a really attractive maiden. The Celestial Orthodox Sect actually have numerous great beauties and he had heard that one of the criteria for promotion within the Celestial Orthodox Sect is beauty itself.

    "Really?" Qin Shuang gasped softly, "You will really forgive me?"

    "I really mean it. I can swear by my soul sea." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    "I believe you¡­" Qin Shuang said with trembling lips. "But Sacred Maiden Xue may not forgive me. I''ve almost killed you¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a softugh, "Qianxue isn''t that petty, I know her very well."

    Then he started to rub his chin as he muttered silently; or maybe not.

    He had suddenly remembered that she had ced a dead and alive bounty on him for a hundred years, renewing the bounty to new heights every year...

    All of a sudden he said solemnly to Qin Shuang, "You can go now. I need to do something else first."

    Qin Shuang was startled by his sudden solemnness but she quickly returned a quick nod before disappearing into the darkness.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had suddenly asked Qin Shuang to leave was because he had sniffed blood scent in the air.

    His nose was extremely sharp.

    He quickly slipped into the darkness and before long, he had quietly appeared in the another location.

    He had spotted Yun Chi and all around her were dead bodies of at least a dozen cultivators.

    From their armlets, it seemed that they had belonged to the White Faction and were probably nning a raid on the Green Faction.

    Ji Yuan had turned ashen;

    It was because Yun Chi had dismembered all these cultivators to pieces in the most ruthless way while maintaining her pleasant smiles.

    She did not have any weapons in her hands to do her ruthless killing because Ji Yuan saw that she had a pair of white wings on her back and it was dripping with blood.

    The wings that were attached on her bare beautiful back was not formed by any profound animus but were real wings that looked like sharpened des.

    Ji Yuan had to blink his eyes to check if he was really seeing things, checking if it is some sort of a profound treasure¡­

    This Yun Chi isn''t human?!

    "Who is that!" Yun Chi had suddenly turned around and her white sharpened wings appeared to withdrawn into her bare back in a blink of an eye.

    And her golden eyes had suddenly turned murderous.

    Ji Yuan had not expected that she would be able to sense him because he was merely blinking his eyes¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he stepped out of the shadows. "Haha. If I tell you that I didn''t see anything, will you believe me?"

    Yun Chi seemed to have lost the pleasant smiles that were on her countenance earlier and she was now looking at Ji Yuan coldly, "I don''t believe."

    Ji Yuan still had one more trump card to use.

    Heughed weakly, "I''m Number 404."

 Chapter 355 Sly Upon Sly (2)

    Ji Yuan had coolly said, "I''m Number 404."

    At the same time, he saw that the lips of Yun Chi had already started to move and he could well imagine that she was about to say to him, "Do you think that I''ll not dare to kill you because you''re Number 404?"

    So he quickly seized the initiative to continue, "It seems that these cultivators are from the White Faction and they are probably here to assassinate me. Luckily you''ve discovered them in a nick of time or you will soon lose your great hero."

    Then he smiled, "I''ve heard that killing the Number 404 of the opposing faction will grant the other faction an additional Escape Talisman."

    In one breath, he had indirectly warned her that she ought to ''protect him'' and he had also diverted her murderous intention, or rather he hoped to.

    Then he quickly walked in front of her before turning his back on her as he kneel down to examine the bodies, "Did you kill them all? Hmm, you''re quite skillful but there is no need to be so ruthless you know. They are only taking their trials."

    Although he had said quite skillful but actually he knew that she was extremely skillful.

    He had purposely turned his back on her, exposing an opening for her to strike his back because he wanted to pretend that he had not really seen what had happened.

    But in that short three blinks of an eye, his back had already broken into cold sweat as he did not know what she would do next.

    He was taking a gambit to put her guard down.

    Then heughed weakly, "Look at me. I got distracted by your cute pink panties that I forget to ask you what profound treasures that you are using against them?"

    Yun Chi gasped softly¡­

    Although her red skirt is short but she was careful not to expose her pink panties but how did Ji Yuan know?

    Ji Yuan actually got extremely sharp eyes and he could look up at an unlikely angle. For example, through the reflection of a de that was on the ground, he had already caught a look at the color of Yun Chi''s panties.

    He actually had another secret;

    Although the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect was ordinary and not extraordinary, it was actually an intentional swordy to be in this way.

    One would have thought that a celestial sect that could produce several sword saints in its past history would have some heaven-defying sword arts.

    While many of the sword sects that had produced sword saints in the past were either gone now or had their sword arts stolen, no one actually pay any attention to the sword arts of the Orthodox Sword Sect because it is not as highly ranked or extraordinary in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Therefore there were many that had thought that it was only because of the tenacity and courage of Ji Yuan that he could pass the trial of the sword saint. After all, the hidden moles that were in the Orthodox Sword Sect had never discovered anything new or unusual about the sword arts of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    So what was the secret of the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect?

    The focus was rather on the shining de of their own swords.

    Because the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect was slower and the secret training of the sessors of the Orthodox Sword Sect was on the training of their unblinking eyes, Ji Yuan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were actually reading their opponents'' moves by using their own swords as a mirror.

    Shangguan Yan does not know about this secret because only the rightful sessor of the Orthodox Sword Sect was allowed to know.

    That is the reason why Fairy Ye Chengxi is also a Sword Saintess when she is only a fifth realm cultivator, about the same time as Ji Yuan as well.

    But this is not as easy as it sounds because it needs the cultivator to have a parallel mind, good eyes and the reflexes to match the extraordinary sword disy of their opponents at the same time.

    Countless cultivators have actually studied the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect for its weakness and found it most ordinary.

    Countless challengers have challenged Ji Yuan, his old master and Fairy Ye Chengxi thinking that they could easily counter the Orthodox Sword Sect''s swordy and to take over them as the new sword saint of the region but countless numbers of challengers were also defeated.

    No matter how extraordinary their swordy is or no matter how swift their movements are, Ji Yuan is able to see through their actions as though he is watching a movie by using his sword as a mirror.

    Right now, even though he had his back facing Yun Chi and was kneeling in an awkward position as he examined the dead bodies, he was actually looking at what Yun Chi was doing with the subtle corner of his eyes that were on the reflection of a sword that was nearby.

    He did not use his divine sense lest it would alert Yun Chi that he was actually watching his back. Rather he had used the most inconspicuous method by pretending to be a fool.

    From his mentioning of the Number 404 to acting like a careless fool, it was his stratagem of putting her guard down.

    When he saw that these cultivators had all died in such a big group and seemingly without any resistances, he had already known that Yun Chi was a super cultivator and he was wary immediately.

    And he had no wish to fight a battle with a super cultivator in his current condition which lowered his chances for a victory, especially after witnessing the many dead bodies of the saint cultivators.

    Yun Chi had lifted her fingers and had hesitated.<sub> </sub>

    Then she immediately withdrew her fingers as she disyed a pleasant smile as she chuckled softly behind Ji Yuan, "I was taking a walk when I''ve encountered these cultivators from the other factions that are trying to make a sneak attack on our camp."

    Then she sighed softly, "Unfortunately they are too overwhelming for a vulnerable maiden like me. In my panic, I was forced to use a powerful profound treasure that I''ve found inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. However I can only use this powerful profound treasure only once."

    Then with a mncholy look, she added quietly. "I did warn them that I was about to use a powerful profound treasure that can take away their lives but they were all mocking me in disbelief. I didn''t think that they will end up in this state and I didn''t think that this profound treasure will be this powerful."

    As she recounted her story, she was paying very careful attention to all the little expressions that were made by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan sighed, "If I were them, I would surely believe you. So I guess that they''re just some arrogant cultivators that are only capable of thinking with their lower bodies."

    Then he chuckled softly, "But then again, I may fare no better than them as well."

    Ji Yuan sighed deeply in the next instant, "What a pity that you''ve used up such a powerful profound treasure. Then who is going to protect me from all the cultivators from the other factions?"

    Yun Chi smiled sweetly, "I will try my very best to protect you but there''s no promise that I''ll be able to do it. After all, I am just a weak and vulnerable maiden."

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly as he stood up to face her, "Actually it is a man''s job to protect a maiden. How can I ask you to protect me? Especially such a beautiful maiden like yourself."

    Then he put on his best charm as he explored her enticing figure with his golden eyes, "You know. I really want to bang you and I''m willing to give up my life for you."

    Xiang Li was shocked as she asked him in his soul sea, "Big Brother, I''ve thought that you don''t like her? And you want to bang her? You''re so direct."

    "See. I''ve told you that our lord is only thinking with his lower body." Fairy Anyang sighed.

    Ji Yuan immediately answered them with a soft frown, "You''ve all seen what I''ve seen earlier, am I right? Right now, I am only putting on an act to put her guard down."

    Pulling himself from his own soul sea, he quickly smiled to Yun Chi. "You''re the most beautiful maiden that I''ve ever known. All my consorts cannot bepared to you and I really want to take you as my consort¡­"

    "What about her then?" Yun Chi smiled as she suddenly pointed at a beautiful figure behind Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled because he could hear a familiar humming sound.

    "I must be the most na?ve maiden. I''vee looking for you but you''re actually having your little affair with this Yun Chi. So you want to bang her, is it? And she is the most beautiful maiden that you''ve ever known and none of us can bepared to her, you say."

    It was Bai Qianfeng and she hade searching for Ji Yuan because she was a little worried about him. After all, Ji Yuan was still bloodied from his earlier battles with the seventh rank deste monsters.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    His throat had suddenly gone dry; Wait Qianfeng! Hear me out¡­this isn''t what you think it is. It is only a ruse, a ruse!

    Bai Qianfeng had turned around as she sped off with bleary eyes.

    Ji Yuan quickly sped after her, "Qianfeng, wait! Please hear me out first!"

    In just a short while, Yun Chi was alone in the darkness again.

    Her pleasant smiles slowly disappeared as she began to ponder slowly;

    Did he or did he not see my wings earlier?

    Then when she recalled that he had seen her pink panties, there was a hint of anger in her golden eyes. "He is only paying attention to this?"

    There was a suddenly hot flush on the tips of her ears as she chuckled softly, "You want to bang me? Fat hope!"

    Then she muttered incoherently, "My heart will actually be stirred by him? It is impossible. He is only a beautiful face. This grea-"

    Then she rolled her golden eyes around to check the surroundings, including the fourth walls, "The walls have ears."

    Quietly, she tiptoed to lift herself up before she disyed her sharp feathered wings again as she sent the trees to topple over to bury the dead.

    In the next instant, her sharp feathered wings had disappeared into her bare back and she had also disappeared into the darkness.

 Chapter 356 Sly Upon Sly (3)

    Ji Yuan sped after Bai Qianfeng in a hurry in the darkness.

    He did not dare to shout after her or else he would have alerted the many cultivators that were hiding in the darkness that were doing their hanky panty stuff.

    To his astonishment, he had actually caught up with Qianfeng and he was facing her back now; maybe it is because she has been crying and hence, her speed was not in her usual form or else Ji Yuan would never be able to catch up with her.

    Her long silver hair was fluttering in the cool breeze under the cloak of darkness and she was like the only light in the darkness.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply, "Qianfeng, please hear me out. I''m sorry. This is a misunderstanding. Look, I can even ask Xiang Li toe out to exin to you."

    "No need!"

    Ji Yuan stammered panicky, "That Yun Chi is too dangerous¡­I was only trying to put down her guard¡­will you please believe me¡­"

    All of a sudden he was frowning because Qianfeng had turned around and she was smiling.

    Where are her tears?!

    She smiled sweetly, "So, what do you think of my yacting?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You are only yacting?"

    But it looks so real¡­

    This must be a trick¡­

    She must be trying to put my guard down before killing me¡­

    101%

    His inherent instinct is never wrong, especially when he is facing a crisis¡­

    But he quickly said with a trembling voice, "Qianfeng, you really got to believe me this time. I really have nothing to do with her. I swear it¡­"

    "Why are you so nervous about? I didn''t say I''m doubting you." She said wryly.

    "Really?" Ji Yuan asked suspiciously.

    She must be lying¡­

    Her tears are so real¡­

    I''m sure she isn''t yacting¡­

    "Xiang Li,e out to rify for me¡­"

    "Xiang Li?"

    "Where is she when I need her the most?!"

    "She is so undependable¡­"

    "Anyang, you there?"

    No response¡­

    What the heck? All my spirit entities are so undependable¡­I must be the first cultivator in the entire Celestial Realm to have spirit entities that do not answer to their master¡­

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled all of a sudden, "Why are you so scare of me? Come closer."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Never.

    But he took the courage to walk into striking distance of her.

    Well, if we want to break up then I''ve to be a real man.

    If she wants to p me or kick me, so be it then.

    I must have hurt her deep down in her heart¡­

    Darn that Yun Chi¡­

    When Ji Yuan was within an arm length of her, Bai Qianfeng smiled, "When I saw the dead bodies in the vicinity and saw that you''re acting quite weirdly in front of that Yun Chi, I knew that something is amiss."

    "I will be acting weirdly?" Ji Yuan frowned. "In what way?"

    Then he began to smile awkwardly; surely she didn''t mean the pink panties thing¡­

    Bai Qianfeng exined casually, "If you''re not acting with that Yun Chi, why are you maintaining a social distancing with her? You would have already run your dirty fingers all over her."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "I am a gentleman, you know. That''s why."

    But he soon chuckled, "That Yun Chi is just too dangerous. Luckily my Qianfeng has just arrived in the nick of a time to save your lord."

    Then he asked, "Erm, why are you looking for me? Aren''t you in the camp?"

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes as she hesitated for a little while¡­

    Earlier the other five maidens had asked her to follow Ji Yuan because they all know that she is the only one that can follow him without allowing him to detect her.

    It was because all the maidens had suspected that Ji Yuan was having an affair with Qin Shuang.

    But to Qianfeng''s surprise, Ji Yuan and Qin Shuang were actually very clean.

    And then she saw Ji Yuan had suddenly bade Qin Shuang farewell and he was suddenly very solemn.<sub> </sub>

    But like Ji Yuan, she had also sniffed the scent of blood in the air and knew that something was up.

    Then she saw Ji Yuan had quietly approached the location where the blood scent was, and was startled to hear the exchanges that were between Yun Chi and Ji Yuan.

    Although she could not see them or dare not move to close to them lest they would discover her, Ji Yuan started one of his famous lines, "Haha. If I tell you that I didn''t see anything, will you believe me?"

    And Yun Chi had replied, "I don''t believe."

    She immediately knew that something was wrong but had decided to wait a little longer before taking any action.

    And when she had heard Ji Yuan''s started to babble about how perfect Yun Chi was, she knew that it was the time for her to act because he seemed to have run out of excuses already.

    So she had ''conveniently'' moved in within their detection and had ''conveniently'' appeared.

    Ji Yuan asked again, "Uh, then why are you here?"

    Bai Qianfeng could not tell him that she was following him because all of them were jealous of Qin Shuang or else they would be seen as too petty.

    So she answered sheepishly, "You''re injured and I don''t trust that Maiden Qin Shuang. At your current weaken state, any one will be able to kill you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not really. I''m actually a tough nut to crack. Haha."

    "How about Yun Chi then?" Bai Qianfeng hummed.

    Ji Yuan began to smile awkwardly when she was mentioned.

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng gave Ji Yuan an appraisal, looking up and down at him. "My lord, you seem to be more beautiful than before."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuanughed as he shook his robe. "I''ve always been very beautiful¡­haha¡­"

    "It does seem that your beautiful robe makes you more beautiful." Bai Qianfeng smiled.

    Ji Yuan began to growl immediately, "A robe does not make a man more beautiful. This is too superficial."

    "I disagree with you, my lord." Bai Qianfeng insisted softly, "A beautiful dress will enhance the beauty of a woman-"

    Ji Yuan interrupted all of a sudden as he suddenly leaned closely to her, "But I feel that my Qianfeng is more beautiful without any clothes on and I really meant it."

    "Be serious." Bai Qianfeng muttered and there was a light flush on her beautiful countenance.

    "Qianfeng, your two spirit pets aren''t with you now¡­"

    "I''ve left them in the camp as it is easier for me to follow you¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "I don''t mean that. I mean without your two spirit pets, shouldn''t we have a little personal time together?"

    He was already putting his hands around her waist and was rubbing her butt.

    "Qianfeng, you must help me. I''ve swallowed five masculine profound pills and until today, I''m still on fire." Ji Yuan muttered as he continued to test his luck on her.

    To his delight, he had loosened her belt; Qianfeng didn''t use her profound energies to fasten her belt. This means that she is actually giving her approval¡­

    He quickly bent his head over to kiss her face, neck and mouth¡­

    Bai Qianfeng could feel that Ji Yuan had already lifted her skirt up and was exploring inside her panties. She panicky said, "My lord, this ce is too crowded. We can''t do it here."

    But Ji Yuan replied, "With our divine sense and alertness, no one will be able to approach us. So don''t worry about it. This is too good an opportunity to be wasted, don''t you think so?"

    As he had said that, he had already loosened her beltpletely and was already stripping her.

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes shyly, "A quick one then."

    But all of a sudden she giggled, "So who is the perfect one. Me or that Yun Chi?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why does woman always want to ask this type of question, especially in such a critical time?

    But of course, Ji Yuan is always smart enough to give the correct answer at the right timing when ites to tter his women. "Of course it is my goddess Qianfeng! Who will want that ugly and cocky Yun Chi? Even if she wants me to bang her, I will not even consider. Haha."

    Bai Qianfeng was naturally delighted with Ji Yuan''s answer and she was resting her head blissfully on Ji Yuan''s bare chest now, "My lord¡­I love you so much¡­"

    "I love you so much too as well." Ji Yuan dered his love proudly for his Qianfeng.

    "Weird..." Bai Qianfeng asked curiously, "Where is Xiang Li?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "She is too busy sleeping now. Isn''t this better this way? I''ve some hidden tricks that I''ve been waiting to use but I can''t use it in her presence."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly, "Is that what you''re truly capable of? Always thinking with your lower body."

    "Or else how will I be able to conquer you?" Ji Yuan teased her yfully and his fingers were equally yful with her body.

    "Shameless..."

    "Haha..."

    Out of earshot from Ji Yuan, Fairy Anyang was asking. "You''re asking me to keep quiet so that I can watch this show with you?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "That''s right. Tonight we''re going to take a mastercourse in banging so that we can prepare ourselves to be Big Brother''s consorts."

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "I don''t have a physical form. You have. If you want to watch then you continue alone. I am not watching..

    Then she pretended to close her eyes.

    In the cover of the darkness, Yun Chi was quietly trembling with rage; she had followed Ji Yuan out of curiosity and had just arrived in a nick of time as Ji Yuan painted her in the most negative light.

    Ji Yuan was not only inviting her for a free show to view his beautiful naked body but he had also called her ugly and cocky!

    She said coldly in her heart, "Ji Yuan, you''re dead now."

 Chapter 357 The Perilous Desert (1)

    At the first break of dawn, led by Gong Xiaotian, the cultivators break camp and set off again.

    Ji Yuan was in high spirits as he called for Team 10 and Team 4 to follow after the vanguard teams; he had a great secret night with Qianfeng and there was no Xiang Li to peep at them this time.

    He felt as though the entire universe was now revolving around him.

    He was with his beloveds when Yun Chi had suddenly approached him with a smile, "Great Hero Ji Yuan, are you feeling much better now?"

    "Uh, I am?" Ji Yuan answered curiously.

    Yun Chi smiled, "Your grievous wounds have yet to healpletely. Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''ve received worse than this in the past. Pain is nothing at all!"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Don''t forget what you''ve said yesterday we''re alone in the forest."

    Immediately Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were staring at Ji Yuan; he was actually with Yun Chi yesterday?!

    Bai Qianfeng muttered softly, "I''ll exinter¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What did I say yesterday?"

    Yun Chi giggled softly as she shed him a slight murderous intent, "Great Hero Ji Yuan really likes to joke with me. Did you not say that I am the most beautiful maiden that you''ve ever known?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am dead¡­

    He could suddenly feel several cold murderous intents behind his cold back as well¡­

    "Or are you just joking with me and toying with me?" Yun Chi hummed coldly all of a sudden.

    "Or¡­" She smiled pleasantly again. "You think that I am just an ugly and cocky maiden?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How does she know that I''ve been describing her ugly and cocky behind her back¡­

    She had overheard me? No, this is impossible¡­I''ve doubled my divine sense rangest night¡­although it is exhausting to maintain it through my session with Qianfeng but I''m sure that there is no one around¡­

    So he replied weakly, "Of course not."

    "Really?" Yun Chiughed softly.

    Ji Yuanughed at the same time, "Of course! It is exactly as I''ve saidst night."

    He had just given a political correct answer. By not revealing what he had saidst night and confirming what he had saidst night to her, he would be safe from all the maidens.

    "So you really mean it when you say you want to bang mest night?" Yun Chi chuckled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan began to curse her venomously in his heart; she is too shameless! Now I''m screwed¡­

    Either yes or no, he will die most horribly now.

    All the maidens except for Bai Qianfeng were now looking at Ji Yuan as though they were questioning him; did he or did he not say it?

    Although Bai Qianfeng knew the reason but she would not say it loud because she was helping Ji Yuan to deal with Yun Chi.

    All of a sudden Yun Chi looked to Bai Qianfeng with a sudden smile, "We''ve metst night. You''re really very beautiful."

    Bai Qianfeng and Ji Yuan were startled all of a sudden.

    Bai Qianfeng was always donning her curtain veil and face veil. Last night she had removed her curtain veil as there was a need for her to see in the darkness.

    Although everyone could tell that Bai Qianfeng was a really beautiful maiden even with her veil on but there seemed to have a hidden meaning to the casual remark that was made by Yun Chi.

    Both Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng had a bad feeling that they were seen by her while they were doing their hanky pantyst night¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was struggling to exin himself, Yun Chi chuckled softly. "Since we''re both co-leaders, you don''t mind giving me Team 4 to lead for the day?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Not at all."

    Then she turned to look at him with a smile, "By the way, I''ve some information for you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "This is actually not my first time in this trial." She smiled.

    Ji Yuan pretended to gasp softly, "This is good. Then you are a more capable leader than I am. Haha."

    Yun Chi smiled, "It seems that we havended on the most awkward ce in Greed Ind. The desert awaits us in the next couple of hours."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Desert?"

    How big is this Greed Ind really?

    Yun Chi nodded, "You may not know this but the trial is always focused on this Greed Ind. There are many starting points and a random faction will be assigned each time."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "What is so difficult about a desert crossing? We are all cultivators here. We don''t need to drink."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "You shall know very soon.

    To his surprise, Yun Chi had walked off just like this.

    Just as he heaved a soft sigh of relief, the other five maidens were all questioning him now. "Ji Yuan, what is going onst night? Why are you with Yun Chi? Aren''t you with Qin Shuang?"

    "Sister Qianfeng, can you exin why you''re hiding this from us?"<sub> </sub>

    "Aren''t we sisters?"

    Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Don''t believe this Yun Chi. She is only trying to sow discord between us. Do you believe me or her?"

    This was the ultimate question to test their rtionship.

    "Yun Chi is a maiden. She won''t ask for you to bang her. It must be you that had said it¡­"

    "Yea, I believe her¡­"

    "Knowing Ji Yuan, this is probably what he will say usually¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng weakly said, "Ji Yuan really didn''t have anything to do with Yun Chi. I was there. She is just framing him."

    "Really?"

    "Or is Sister Qianfeng covering up for Ji Yuan?"

    "Something is fishy here¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, where are you going?"

    Ji Yuan weakly answered, "I need to rally our Team 10 to set off after the vanguard teams. We''ve no time for gossips."

    "It is not gossip. We can talk while we walk¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you''ve better exin to us what had happenedst night¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He could only say bitterly, "I will exinter when we''re alone."

    He began to curse silently; This Yun Chi is really nothing but trouble¡­

    -

    -

    -

    After traveling for a few hours, they had left the thick canopy of the forest and saw a golden desert.

    Gong Xiaotian had immediately regrouped all the teams together.

    Ji Yuan could see that there were many cultivators that had fresh injuries and the number of cultivators had also been reduced by a little.

    Gong Xiaotian had an ugly look on his face as he turned to all the cultivators to say, "We may have taken the wrong route a few hours ago. Now it is toote to turn back or we will have wasted plenty of precious time."

    Yun Chi had suddenly moved forward to smile coyly to him, "Master Gong, this may be the case but the desert is also the closest to the Fallen Gods City. Although the way is perilous but we may have a chance of finding the Fallen God Relic first."

    Gong Xiaotian nodded slowly, "So be it. We shall cross the desert then."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously as he asked Gong Xiaotian and Yun Chi, "What is this Fallen Gods City that you''re talking about?"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "It is actually our final destination. The stone page of the Fallen Gods Relic is actually hidden in the Fallen Gods City that is in the middle of this Greed Ind."

    Ji Yuan merely nodded slowly but he was cursing Yun Chi again;

    It was because she had already known that Gong Xiaotian had already taken the wrong turn and yet she did not warn him that they would be approaching the desert.

    But when he saw that Yun Chi was looking at him with pleasant smiles, he cursed even louder.

    Just as he was about to rebuke her, Yun Chi asked pleasantly. "You seem to have something to say? Why don''t you bottom it up from your heart?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is she a worm in my stomach that she even knows what I was thinking about?

    He grinned, "Nothing. I was just looking forward to this Fallen Gods City actually."

    Xiang Li asked curiously in his soul sea, "Big Brother, why is that your soul sea is thinking of cursing her but you are saying something else instead?"

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "Maybe he is afraid of her."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Nonsense. I''m justzy to argue with her. Sure I can expose her but I''m a gentleman so I won''t take offense by her."

    "That is because our lord here can''t win her in any arguments." Fairy Anyang giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That''s not true, you know." Ji Yuan protested righteously. "I did remember that I''ve won at least one time."

    "Which one?" Fairy Anyang asked with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he tried very hard to recall, "Too many times, I can''t remember. I tell you when I''m less busy. Right now, I am focusing on the trial and guarding myself against her."

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

 Chapter 358 The Perilous Desert (2)

    There were endless sands all around the Green Faction as they marched together.

    Unlike the teams spreading strategies that were used for the deep forest, the different teams were now marching together instead.

    Out of the three hundred plus cultivators that had started off from the Red Mansion, only two hundred plus now remained.

    Nearly one third of the cultivators had either perished or had used their Escape Talismans.

    Gong Xiaotian exined his strategies to Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Ximen Wudi and to the other team leaders, "This desert is perilous and we need to move as a group. No one is to move recklessly without my orders."

    With that Gong Xiaotian was now leading all the cultivators into the desert.

    The sun was zing hot as the cultivators moved into the desert cautiously.

    Many of the cultivators were feeling extremely ufortable, including Ji Yuan as they dragged their foot in the sands.

    Literally dragging their foot in the sand because many of the cultivators were cursing loudly that there were sands inside their boots!

    Even though all the cultivators here were golden celestials and they did not need any water to sustain them but they were now expending their inner spiritual sea to sustain themselves. As a matter of fact, many of them were walking in a half-meditation state as they absorbed whatever little spiritual aura around them to rece their inner spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan is used to the cool mountains and he could not believe he was now walking in such a hostile ce and he was cursing ufortably as he used ten times more spiritual energy than he usually was ustomed to and he is a great saint.

    With every ten steps he had taken, he was cursing Yun Chi for bringing them into the desert; because she seemed unaffected by the fatigue that was brought upon by the zing heat.

    Other than Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng was also not affected.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had ackluster look as they followed Ji Yuan.

    Only Bai Qianfeng continued to walk in her usual spirited posture.

    There was a reason why Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were unaffected; they had released their profound auras continuously to keep themselves cool.

    Gong Xiaotian and many of the cultivators were shaking their heads when they witnessed what they were doing and were cursing them for their stupidity; the trek into the desert may take many hours and even days. These two maidens are exhausting their profound strength just because they could not bear the heat? Stupid¡­

    After an hour in the hot zing desert, Ji Yuan walked backward as he approached Bai Qianfeng with a grin, "Qianfeng, shall we walk together? You are so lonely today."

    The other maidens did not want to walk with Qianfeng because they had thought that she was hiding something from them.

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes before she giggled softly, "I don''t want to."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng exined with a soft chuckle, "If you want to keep yourself cool, use your own profound force."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed sheepishly; his little scheme was exposed. He had thought of cooling himself within Qianfeng''s profound aura.

    Although he could release his own profound force to keep himself cool for a while but he was a man of pride. It would be awkward to his face if he were to release his profound aura just to keep himself cool.

    Actually Ji Yuan was not the only man that was thinking the same.

    Many of the men were also thinking the same as Ji Yuan and they were resisting the urge to release their profound auras like Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng lest they would appear as feminine in the eyes of the other cultivators.

    Instead, they would rather curse Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng in their hearts to pass the time.

    All of a sudden an unfortunate cultivator in front of them was swallowed by a sand pit!

    Ji Yuan gulped when he saw what was happening; he could well imagine he was the one.

    Before everyone knew what was happening, dozens of golden scorpion-like deste monsters had appeared from the golden sands dunes all over the ce.

    Gong Xiaotian shouted all of a sudden, "Careful! Ambush!"

    "Sixth rank deste profound monsters! Be careful!"

    A sixth rank deste profound monster is actually the equivalent of a saint cultivator in their profound animus but their profound strength is several times stronger than even a great saint. One wrong move and even a great saint will be ripped apart.

    Immediately hundreds of cultivators began to disy their profound auras with no holds as they battled the deste golden scorpions that had appeared.

    Ji Yuan had just sheathed his divine swords but before he could sh forward to do battle, the dozens of golden scorpions were mostly decimated by the vanguard teams.

    There were excited look in their eyes and it seemed that their spirits were revived all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan thought; these cultivators were too fierce!

    In a short time, dozens of golden scorpions were dead.

    None of the cultivators had died except for the first cultivator that had triggered the ambush but there were eight cultivators that had used their Escape Talisman.

    But all of a sudden he had noticed many of the cultivators had not withdrawn their profound animus back into their inner cultivation sea even though they were not facing any opponents.

    He began to frown immediately because he had realized what had happened; the appearance of these deste monsters had given theme excuse to disy their profound animus to keep themselves cool.

    And no way would they want to withdraw their profound animus from this unbearable heat so quickly, including Ji Yuan.

    Many of the cultivators were muttering;

    "There may be more dangers around us¡­"

    "It is better to maintain our profound auras in case of danger¡­"

    "If that first cultivator had his profound force on in the first ce, there is still hope for him¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were agreeing with one another even though it drains them more spiritual energies in order to maintain their profound animus.

    They would rather eat more profound pills to replenish their spiritual seas than suffer under this unbearable heat; after all they were all the sons and daughters of the heavens that have a silver spoon in their mouths. No way they would be a sucker and endure such mortal sufferings.

    "Lame." Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently as he withdrew his profound aura.

    Gong Xiaotian and Ximen Wudi had also withdrawn their profound auras because it served their manly pride to do so.

    But Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had decided that enough was enough and that they were not going to suffer in this unbearable heat. Even if they were drained of their profound strength, they were all going to maintain their protective profound animus.

    Many of the female cultivators were all thinking of the same.

    What if their beautiful skins will turn dark under the scorching heat?

    That will be too terrible then!<sub> </sub>

    Worse, the men may find them not beautiful anymore.

    And so, yea, they''ve decided to maintain their profound auras like Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng can actually maintain her spiritual energies in an infinity circr loop because her cultivation realm is much higher and it is something that is effortless to her. She can maintain her profound aura without even losing her profound strength.

    At her cultivation realm level, she is already immune to the elements.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to pretend to ask the maidens some questions so that he could make use of their profound auras to stay cool, he sensed a familiar aura from one of the cultivators nearby who was from Team 4.

    There was a cultivator in ck hood and there was something familiar about him.

    At least his profound animus was something that was familiar to him.

    As Ji Yuan approached him to take a curious look, the ck hood cultivator began to walk away.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan shouted jovially, "Saint Xiao Muhan? Is that you? Aren''t you dead?"

    Saint Xiao Muhan weakly turned around, "It is me."

    Ji Yuan chuckled jovially, "I really thought that you''re dead. Howe you''re here? Do you know how sad I was when I''ve heard that you''re dead. Haha, I''m so d that you''re actually alive."

    The two of them were the best of friends and they were known as the Two Great Brushes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The Two Great Brushes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity naturally refers to the Great Poet Ji Yuan and the Great Painter Xiao Muhan.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Hey, are you still my good friend? Howe you didn''t tell me that you''re here? We are even in the same faction together. You should have told me that you''re here. You''re not a good friend¡­"

    Then he chuckled loudly as he rubbed his chin, "Is it because you''ve seen me with so many great beauties and you are envious of me? Haha."

    Xiao Muhan said coldly, "Have you said enough? Now it is my turn."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "First of all, we are not good friends anymore." Xiao Muhan slowly said.

    "Secondly, I don''t know you at all."

    "Thirdly, farewell."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Brother Muhan! What the heck happens to you?" Ji Yuan returned a perplexed look. "Of course we''re good friends! Didn''t you paint the ''Mighty Sword Saint Ji Yuan atop of the World, trampling his ultimate victory over his foes'' for me?"

    This painting was what Ji Yuan had seen when he had visited Ling Tianshui''s abode; it shows a handsome bearded cultivator who was holding his long beard and he had a long sword in front of him as he stood on the edge of the cliff.

    Xiao Muhan stroked his long beard as he said coldly, "You''re nothing but trouble. Do you know how much that I''ve suffered when Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had ced the dead or alive bounty on you?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Xiao Muhan continued, "You have disappeared for a hundred years while I''ve suffered for a hundred years because of the bounty that is on you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "What happens?"

    Xiao Muhan hummed coldly, "Hmph! And you''re still feigning ignorance. Everyone knows that we are the Two Great Brushes and are also the best of friends. Naturally they have alle knocking on my doors to seek your whereabouts. And I have to flee for a hundred years all because of you."

    When Ji Yuan heard him, he looked a little sheepish.

    But he soonughed, "Well, you''re alive now so that is a good thing. My Orthodox Sword Sect has suffered more than you do. Haha."

    Xiao Muhan added even more coldly, "What did you do then? You hand over your leadership to Fairy Ye Chengxi and run away!"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "I didn''t run away. I was having my breakthrough to the sacred saint level. I''ve an epiphany and hence, I had entered into seclusion. They should wait for me until I am back from my seclusion-"

    "Everyone knows that you are like a monkey and is almost never at the Orthodox Sword Sect. Instead, you prefer to spend your time drinking and reciting poems in my mountain." Xiao Mohan interrupted coldly.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "That is not entirely true. I love trials and am mostly in the trials. Haha."

    Then he rubbed his chin to look at his old friend, "You seem to have age a lot. Why is that so? Surely you can find somewhere to lie low for a while right?"

    Xiao Muhan growled, "I am not as poor as you are to run when and wherever you want to. I have my own harem and beautiful pces in my mountain."

    "This is too personal." Ji Yuan protested. "Look at my robe. Do I look poor now? And I''ve two superior divine swords."

    Xiao Muhan growled, "You are indeed not poor now. Farewell."

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Just exactly what happen to you? Aren''t we good friends? Do you know how d I am to see you again?"

    Xiao Muhan said coldly, "If you are beaten up every year like me for a hundred years, will you feel happy like I do?"

    "So that is why you have to fake your own death." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Then he patted Xiao Muhan on his shoulder, "Brother Muhan, you''re my good friend. I am Saint Ji Yuan now. Great Saint Ji Yuan! Don''t forget that I am also Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Now tell me who is the one that has been bullying you and I''ll surely beat them up. I swear by my soul sea that I will right the wrong for you! In the future, no one will be able to bully you anymore! You''ve my word for it!"

    There was a bitter look that was on Xiao Muhan''s face before he said slowly, "Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue had slowly approached them with a gentle chuckle, "Ji Yuan, you have a friend? Do you mind introducing your friend to me?"

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "Brother Muhan, do you mind going back to the grave once more?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

 Chapter 359 The Two Great Brushes (1)

    Ling Feiyue was smiling gently as she approached Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, "Is he a friend of yours? Why don''t you introduce your friend to me?"

    Xiao Muhan had turned ashen immediately when this lovely maiden in ck had approached. Even though he could not see her appearances because of her curtain veil and also because she was also wearing a face veil within the curtain veil, he had recognized her gentle voice as the one that had beaten him up every year.

    He began to stammer, "Dark Mistress¡­Ling¡­Fei¡­yue¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had naturally recognized Xiao Muhan who had refused to reveal the whereabouts of Ji Yuan to her for many years.

    "Let me ask you." Ling Feiyue coolly said. "Are you a friend or not a friend of my lord Ji Yuan here?"

    Xiao Muhan blinked his eyes¡­

    If he replies wrongly then he would surely die¡­

    He had faked his own death so that Ling Feiyue would not be able to find him¡­

    But today he had met her once again¡­

    Slowly he answered weakly, "Ji Yuan and I are the best of friends."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Then that is good. You know that I''m always polite to a friend, especially to the friends of Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan patted Xiao Muhan on his shoulder again, "Haha, since we are all friends, we shouldn''t have dwelled on the past anymore."

    Xiao Muhan weakly muttered, "I actually dare not. I am just a lowly saint while the two of you are great saints."

    Then he stared at Ji Yuan, "How the heck are you able to advance so quickly in your cultivation realm?"

    He was an initial saint while Ji Yuan was only at the peaked sixth realm golden supremacy level. He was still an initial saint now but Ji Yuan was already a peaked great saint.

    It was an impossible thing to achieve for most cultivators to do so and difficult for many to ept it.

    Because other than sword arts, Ji Yuan''s cultivation talents are lower than him. Moreover he was as poor as hell in the past.

    Ji Yuan gave him a serious look before he chuckled, "Do you really have to ask? That is because I''m a genius."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    If he is a genius then what am I?

    A fool?

    Why do the heavens favor him just because he has a beautiful face?

    Just as he was about to refute Ji Yuan, a beautiful and coy voice chuckled softly.

    It was Yun Chi and she had approached them with a smile.

    Xiao Muhan was trembling nervously when he saw her; after she had taken off her face mask, he had been so overwhelmed by her perfect beauty. Moreover he had been staring at her nice figure from behind ever since she was leading Team 4.

    Ji Yuan was also trembling lightly when he saw her because he did not know what she would suddenly say to screw him up. Right now, he is really afraid of her.

    Yun Chi smiled coyly as she approached them, "I''ve identally overheard your earlier conversations¡­"

    JI Yuan cursed her silently; you''re obviously eavesdropping on us¡­

    "I''ve identally overheard that the two of you are the Two Great Brushes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. One of you is the Great Painter and one of you is the Great Poet."

    Yun Chi chuckled softly.

    "I wonder if there is apetition between the two of you, which one of you is the superior, which one is the inferior?"

    "Of course I am the superior. He is the inferior." Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan said at the same time.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he stared at Xiao Muhan.<sub> </sub>

    And Xiao Muhan was also staring coldly at him.

    "Don''t forget that my paintings are worth high grade spirit stones but your poems are basically worthless." Xiao Muhan quickly added.

    Ji Yuan retorted coldly, "Don''t forget that I have all the thousands of beautiful fan girls while you got all the ugly old cultivators as your fans."

    "That is only because you have a beautiful face and not because your poem is a great writing." Xiao Muhanughed. "But ever since you''ve lost your beautiful beard, I am afraid that you may have already lost all your beautiful fan girls by now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan continued mockingly, "Moreover, you always like to exaggerate a lot. As your good friend for many centuries, I know you better than yourself."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is too personal. When did I ever exaggerate things? Come on, tell me! I will only under exaggerate and never over exaggerate!"

    Their arguments had also brought Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue over.

    In fact, quite a number of cultivators were now looking in their direction, curious to see what was happening.

    Xiao Muhan hummed coldly, "Did you not say that you have once bedded ten thousand maidens? Even your best friend Guo Taiming has also heard you boasting about it. Are you saying that you have only bedded more and not less?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was suddenly rolling his eyes as he looked weakly in the direction of Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue who were all looking none the pleased.

    "That is only a drunken statement. Please don''t believe what he has just said. He is framing me for sure." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    Ling Feiyue suddenly recited, "Ten thousand maidens as my bed chamber maids, I am indeed the most blissful cultivator in the Celestial Realm."

    She turned to look coldly at Ji Yuan, "Did you or did you not say this?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "It is only a poem. It isn''t true at all-"

    "Maybe he found some inspirations in real life for it." Little Princess hummed coldly.

    Yun Chi suddenly chuckled, "Say. Why don''t we have Saint Xiao Muhan and Saint Ji Yuan topete against each other to see who is the superior brush, instead of arguing with each other?"

    "It is a good idea." Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Mohan said coldly at the same time.

    "But it won''t be a fairpetition." Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden. "I am a poet while he is a painter. What if all of you are too uncultured to appreciate my poem? Then won''t I be the ultimate loser?"

    Xiao Mohanughed, "I must give you some credit for thinking of this. Everyone knows how to appreciate a painting but very few people will be able to appreciate a poem."

    Yun Chi chuckled, "I''ve a good idea. May I make a suggestion?"

    "Go ahead." Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Mohan answered at the same time.

    "Why don''t we have Saint Mohan to paint a portrait of myself while Ji Yuan will write a poem on the painting for us to judge? We will let the cultivators here to be the judge who is the better brush. I am sure everyone will be interested to know whether Saint Xiao Mohan will be able to capture my beauty with his brushes or whether Great Hero Ji Yuan will be able to capture my beauty with his poem."

    Yun Chi chuckled pleasantly and coyly as she looked at them.

    Ji Yuan, Xiao Mohan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Xiao Mohan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Xiao Mohan: ¡­

    Xiao Mohan was thinking weakly; it will be a great challenge for me to capture even one-tenth of her perfection¡­

    Ji Yuan was also thinking weakly; if I were to dedicate a poem to you in front of my beloveds, I will be surely end up as a dead man¡­

    But the two of them said loudly at the same time, "Who is afraid of who? The challenge is on!"

    Yun Chi chuckled, "May the best man wins."

 Chapter 360 The Two Great Brushes (2)

    Word quickly spread in the Green Faction that Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were pitting their artistic skills to extol the great beauty of Yun Chi.

    While the male cultivators were excited about it but the female cultivators were cool about it.

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly to the rest of the maidens, "She only knows how to pose herself, that is all. In terms of mesmerizing charm, is sheparable to Little Princess? In terms of refine beauty, is she up to Maiden Feng Minyue? In terms of allure, is she up to Qianfeng? In terms of imperturbable beauty, is she up to Jingjing? Is she as stunning as Sisi?"

    "Most importantly, is she as beautiful as me?"

    "That is right!"

    "Sister Feiyue, well said!"

    "Yun Chi cannot bepared to any of us!"

    "That''s right!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    They''re praising themselves¡­

    Bai Qianfeng whispered to them, "And our lord has even called her ugly and cocky too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly stopped their gossips, "Not so loud. The walls have ears."

    He was extremely afraid of letting Yun Chi overheard their conversations; for some unknown reasons, he is now freaking afraid of her whenever she is near to him.

    It is because he never knows what she is going to say¡­

    He had to move his eyes around to check if Yun Chi was near, not trusting his divine sense anymore.

    And he saw her chatting jovially with Xiao Muhan as though he was the handsomest cultivator.

    All of a sudden he was seeing green as he cursed silently, "Brother Muhan, do you know that you can''t take your best friend''s friend for yourself or you will be damned¡­"

    What am I saying?

    I''ve no rtionship with this Yun Chi at all¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The hours quickly passed and soon the sun had finally set.

    The Green Faction that was led by Gong Xiaotian had found a ruin and they had quicky made a makeshift camp in the ruins.

    Everyone was excited as they gathered in a big circle around Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan and Yun Chi.

    The reason why everyone was excited was because a fight between Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan was about to start soon.

    It was not a physical fight but an artistic fight.

    And they were now fighting over Yun Chi to see who the superior was and who the inferior brush was.

    They had all waited until it was night time and when the temperature was much cooler.

    Hundreds of torches were lit up around Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan and Yun Chi.

    Many of the cultivators were even making side bets to see who shall emerge as the better brush and victor.

    "Who do you think will win?"

    "Xiao Muhan¡­"

    "Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Xiao Muhan because Yun Chi seems to have taken an interest in him. I''ve seen them talking together for the entire day¡­"

    "Ji Yuan because he is more beautiful¡­"

    "Ji Yuan will lose because Yun Chi doesn''t seem to like him that much¡­"

    "Ji Yuan will win because Yun Chi seems to like him¡­"

    Eventually the odds of Ji Yuan winning are 1:3 while Xiao Muhan has a 1:1 winning odd.

    Ji Yuan was not happy with the odds because it seems that many of the cultivators were betting that he would lose.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all betting that he would lose.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Qin Shuang said to him, "Master Ji Yuan, I have betted that you will win."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Thank you-"

    "Mainly to improve your odds or it will look terrible on you." Qin Shuang giggled all of a sudden before she walked off.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had used their divine swords to cleave off a smooth table for them from the ruins that were around them.<sub> </sub>

    Right now, the two of them were staring coldly at each other.

    Although they may be the best of friends but today their reputations were at stake!

    The cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity were excited because they were witnessing a contest between the two legendary brushes today.

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, Saint Xiao Muhan''s paintings were worth thousands of spirit stones. He was the best of the best when ites to paintings.

    At the same time dozens of cultivators had also taken out their brushes, ready to best Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan with their paintings and poems.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were actually not the only talented cultivators around and these cultivators were ready to show everyone their awesome workster.

    Right now everyone was looking at Yun Chi who was smiling coyly at everyone as she slowly removed her upper face mask.

    Once again, many of the cultivators were gasping at her astonishing peerless beauty.

    She was like a sculptured goddess and her pleasant smiles were like the strong noon sun that lit the hearts of everyone.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had to admit that she was really good in smiling because she looked too natural.

    Ji Yuan whispered to Xiao Muhan, "It is not just apetition between the two of us. Did you see that there are so many cultivators that are around us that are also with their brushes?"

    Xiao Muhan whispered weakly, "I can see it. I don''t need you to tell me all this. You''ve better not disgrace our good name in the eyes of these cultivators."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is precisely what I''m trying to tell you. No matter who win or lose today, we have to be better than all of them."

    Xiao Muhan nodded as he cursed softly, "What is wrong with these cultivators? It is ourpetition and yet it has be theirpetition as well."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Because this Yun Chi is stripping herself for them to view, that''s why."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "You the Great Poet Ji Yuan. Why are you so vulgar? She is only taking off her mask and not stripping. You are just an uncultured couth. How did you ever get to be exalted as a great poet? Did you spend all your time describing the beauty of the beautiful maidens?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t remember you''re that cultured. You and your sick painting. You''ve even showed it to me."

    Xiao Muhanughed weakly, "Let''s have a friendlypetition. We are all good friends, you know. No personal attacks."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Right, right. No personal attacks."

    Their attentions were quickly distracted by Yun Chi as she seated herself gracefully.

    As Yun Chi seated herself, she had second thoughts about her pose so she started to sit cross-legged as she faced Ji Yuan Xiao Muhan.

    Ji Yuan''s lightning fast eyes had already caught between her bare legs and he was gulping¡­

    He was not the only one as Xiao Muhan and many of the male cultivators were all staring hard at the same time, releasing soft gasps of excitement¡­

    Gong Xiaotian was now whispering to the rest of his inner circle, "I want this Yun Chi."

    "We don''t know if she is a saintess or not. She doesn''t look weak." One cultivator whispered back.

    Gong Xiaotian frowned, "Does it matter if she is a saintess or not? She isn''t the only saintess that surrenders to us."

    Then he smirked coldly, "If she is really that strong, she won''t use that Ji Yuan as her support. No matter how strong she is, do you think that she is a match for all of us here? We''re all saints and great saints here."

    "True, true¡­" The inner circle of cultivators immediately agreed with Gong Xiaotian.

    Gong Xiaotian chuckled, "You just need to decide who will be the next one to ride her after I''m done with her."

    One cultivator slowly said, "I''ve only agreed to join you to ovee this trial. Do we have to be so underhanded? What is the difference between us and the heretic cultivators then?"

    Gong Xiaotian hummed coldly, "There is now inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the shameful things that happen inside will be a secret forever."

    Although there were many golden celestials taking part in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth every 500 years, very few cultivators were willing to share the experiences inside. It had be a taboo in the Celestial Realm to mention the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Gong Xiaotian said to the same cultivator, "So are you with us or not with us?"

    The same cultivator answered with a smile, "Of course I''m with everyone. I''m just bottoming my righteousness from my heart if not I won''t feelfortable after I''ve ridden her."

    Everyone: ...

    They were all loudly cursing him in their hearts for being a hypocrite...

    Gong Xiaotian smirked coldly, "This Ji Yuan is getting to be an eyesore. If he isn''t the Number 404, I would have killed him long ago here."

    Another cultivator asked in a low voice, "Are you thinking of silencing him?"

    Gong Xiaotian slowly nodded with a wry smile, "I want his saint-step divine sword. The rest of you can divide the rest of his profound treasures with one another."

    A saint-step divine sword is a profound treasure that is worth more than the Escape Talismans.

    Rather than letting the other Factions have a chance to kill Ji Yuan, he had decided to finish Ji Yuan personally now and to seize his saint-step divine sword.

    Another cultivator protested weakly, "I will be risking my life against this Ji Yuan but all the benefits belong to all of you. There are his golden robe and an immortal-step divine sword left. What is there left for me then?"

    Gong Xiaotian smiled as he answered him, "Can''t you see that he also have six astonishing beauties that are with him? These astonishing beauties and their profound treasures will also belong to you. Moreover Ji Yuan may have other astonishing profound treasures inside his spatial ring as well."

    Then he chuckled, "To be fair to all, you can all draw lots for it. I believe that even if your luck is the worst, you still have plenty of benefits."

    All the other twenty cultivators were all rolling their eyes as they took a look at one another. They were soon smiling; even if Ji Yuan doesn''t have so many profound treasures but some of them may not survive a fight with Ji Yuan or will be forced to use the Escape Talisman. Therefore they had good chance to seize some good profound treasures and beauties for themselves.

    Everyone was thinking that the others would be the one to die and they were allughing jovially now.

    And Gong Xiaotian was alsoughing jovially, "Ji Yuan will be a dead man soon."

 Chapter 361 The Two Great Brushes (3)

    Yun Chi smiled, "The time limit is two hours. You can all begin now."

    Ji Yuan sneezed all of a sudden as he held his brush.

    He began to mutter, "Who is cursing me?"

    "Did you do that on purpose? This is low." Xiao Muhan had said all of a sudden.

    Barely had Xiao Muhan began to start the first stroke of the brush to paint Yun Chi''s exquisite beauty, Ji Yuan had suddenly sneezed in his direction and had caused him to ruin his painting with a wayward stroke.

    Ji Yuan chuckled jovially, "You can''t even hold your brush properly."

    Xiao Muhan growled furiously before he took out a fresh piece of paper. "Stay far away from me. If you want to sneeze, please wear a mask!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Why must I wear a mask? I am not a maiden and it is not like I will infect you or something. You''re a golden celestial and are immune to sickness. Haha."

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly to Ji Yuan, "Great Hero Ji Yuan. Please restraint from using underhand methods to win. This is a fairpetition. It is luckily that Saint Xiao Muhan has not started yet. It will be terrible if he has almostpleted the painting."

    Ji Yuan grumbled weakly, "How do I know that I will sneeze. It is not as though I did it on purpose-"

    "He must have done it on purpose¡­"

    "Despicable¡­"

    "Underhand!"

    "How can this Ji Yuan do this¡­"

    "Because he wants us to lose our spirit stones¡­"

    "Lame. Using tricks to win¡­"

    "Just because his betting odds are low¡­"

    "Disqualify him!"

    "Cheater!"

    The cultivators behind Ji Yuan were furiously discussing hotly.

    Even Ling Feiyue was overheard saying, "Ji Yuan is toome. How can he do this¡­he really wants us to lose our spirit stones¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was now staring at Yun Chi who was sitting serenely in front of him.

    He was literally staring at her boldly, examining every single inch of her enticing figure.

    But at the same time, he was cursing silently; she is wearing too little. Does she know that all these cultivators are staring at her now? She may well be naked¡­

    Then he was staring between her legs as he muttered almost incoherent; why doesn''t she part her legs?

    "Why is that Ji Yuan staring at her instead of writing his poem?"

    "He isn''t a painter but he keeps staring at her¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is just a lecher¡­"

    "I think he calls himself the Gentleman of the Sword¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he heard the many cultivators that were criticizing him all of a sudden.

    He could not resist the urge to say aloud, "What do you all know about poems? You''re all uncultured cultivators. I''m studying her for inspirations. Hmph!"

    Immediately many of the cultivators were responding with jeers;

    "We don''t believe¡­"

    "It is just hisme excuse¡­"

    "You can literally see where his eyes are wandering to¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is just a self-righteous bigot¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Yun Chi seemed to turn to Ji Yuan to smile pleasantly and she seemed to be studying him.

    Ji Yuan quickly pretended to look at the nk silken paper in front of him as he pretended to write something but his mind was a nk; only the image of Yun Chi is upying his mind now¡­

    He began to curse silently; this Yun Chi is too fearsome and her air is too strong. I can''t focus at all¡­

    Then he took another peep at her before he wandered his eyes below her waist¡­

    Xiang Li asked curiously in his soul sea, "Big Brother, why aren''t you writing anything and why are you staring at her nonstop?"

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "Maybe he doesn''t want to win."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested, "What do you all know? I am studying her for her weakness. By staring at her, I''m hoping to unnerve her and this will trante into my advantage in our next confrontation. This is the ultimate science of the art of war. We win by psychology first!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes and said nothing.

    Her master did not seem to know that she and Fairy Anyang are both able to sense his emotions in his soul sea; at this moment, they both knew that Ji Yuan is actually thinking with his lower body as he looked at every single inch of Yun Chi''s figure.

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "Has he forgotten about his near-death encounter with Yun Chi that night?"

    Xiang Li re-examined Ji Yuan''s soul sea before she blinked her eyes, "Big Brother seems confuse whether he should fear her or he should bang her¡­"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "Mortals are soplex. I can also sense that he doesn''t want Xiao Muhan to win thispetition too because he seems to think that he is the better ''Great Brush'' in front of Yun Chi."

    "More like he doesn''t want Xiao Muhan to green him." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan was muttering to himself as he stared at the nk paper but the corners of his sharp eyes were looking at Yun Chi nonstop;

    Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. Don''t forget that this Yun Chi is up to no good. You''ve seen how ruthless she had been that night and that she got that terrifying de wings on her back. Maybe she isn''t even a celestial¡­

    But these cultivators are attacking our camp. She may be defending us against them¡­

    Did I misunderstand her or something?

    Hmm, she seems to like me¡­

    I can tell that she is extra friendly to me¡­

    Or maybe it is just a plot of hers¡­

    Maybe because my beautiful looks is too irresistible to her¡­

    No, wait! She knows that I''ve called her ugly and cocky behind her back¡­

    Or maybe that is just a random line by her?

    She looks gullible like Jingjing though¡­

    Maybe she is really innocent¡­

    Yea, maybe she is just a friendly maiden but I''ve been too suspicious about her motives¡­

    Am I too bad for doubting her?

    She hasn''t done anything to me so far¡­

    So far is a poor statement. She doesn''t have a chance to harm me yet but actually she is a demoness¡­

    Maybe I should ask her for a date¡­

    What am I thinking?

    I''m only interested in pursuing Maiden Feng¡­

    Ji Yuan gasped all of a sudden as he looked panicky in Feng Minyue''s direction.

    Her impression of me must be rock bottom now.

    I must cast this Yun Chi away from my mind¡­

    But how to cast her off when I''m supposed to describe her beauty with my poem?

    Am I doomed to lose?

    I can imagine Brother Xiao Muhan''s cocky look now and also in the future¡­

    I will be theughing stock in his eyes for centuries toe¡­

    Darn, even Brother Guo Taiming will learn of this too if I lose and I will be mocked¡­

    With a firm conviction, he finally gathered his focus again as he lifted his head to look at Yun Chi once more¡­

    "Look! That Ji Yuan didn''t even write anything yet and he is looking at Maiden Yun Chi now."

    "He is just a lecherous cultivator for sure¡­"

    "Is he really a great poet¡­"

    "One hour has passed and his paper is still nk¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he had heard the cultivators mouthing criticism behind his back¡­

    I must also pretend these cultivators are not around. They are so distracting¡­

    Ji Yuan willed all his mental together to cast away all the other distractions.

    It was too easy for him.

    After all, he had possessed the Divine Heart Recite; the Absolute Spirits being the first stage that he had long mastered.

    He began to calm himself down and to think of Yun Chi as just a peerless maiden whose he had no emotional attachments.

    In his mind, she was not good or evil but a peerless maiden.

    He saw the golden sands that were scattered around her and he began to put his poem into writing;

    When Ji Yuan had finally put his poem into writing, he had a satisfied look.

    I should give this poem a beautiful title as well. How about a name that no one will ever understand?<sub> </sub>

    After thinking of a while, he began to put down a catchphrase that he had thought of; Mona Lisa.

    That''s right. Mona Lisa is Yun Chi and Yun Chi is Mona Lisa.

    In this way, no one would be able to link the two of them together in the future and he would be safe from the wrath of his beloveds as well.

    At almost the same time, Xiao Muhan wasughing jovially as he hadpleted his painting. "It is done, it is done! I must say that this is a masterpiece¡­muhahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he saw Xiao Muhan excited chuckle, "Be careful that you will identally spit a drop of your saliva on your own painting and has an extra mole on her face. Then your painting will be ruined."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    He began to curse Ji Yuan loudly, "You think this is a white and ck painting? It is a colored painting and I can always correct it. Since you can talk so much, I presume that you''ve already finished your poem?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Of course I''ve finished and you will surely be impressed."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Don''t be too sure about it. Wait till you have seen my painting, you will surely be impressed."

    "Wait till you''ve seen mine and you will regretpeting with me again!" Ji Yuan mocked loudly.

    The two of themughed at the same time, "You''ve been warned!"

    Then the two of themughed jovially as though they were mocking each other.

    Ling Feiyue whispered to the rest of the maidens, "Now I truly believe that the two of them are best friends. They can''t help slinging shit at each other."

    "You bet that they are. They have been best friends for centuries." Little Princess chuckled softly; in the years that she had been secretly following Ji Yuan, he had been drinking with Xiao Muhan most of the time. She had witnessed many of their shameless acts together and their profanities against each other.

    At first, she was really startled that the Two Great Brushes were actually such vulgar cultivators but eventually she had gotten used to their constant antics.

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "I think the two of them are throwing the face of the Deste Celestial Fraternity away¡­"

    Yun Chi chuckled gently as she stood up, "So the two of you''ve finished. I am really ufortable after sitting down for so long."

    As she got up, she had to uncross her legs, this caused Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan and many others to have their eyes popped out; they all had a satisfied look on their faces.

    But this only applied to those with quick and sharp eyes like Ji Yuan, naturally.

    As for the losers, they could only sigh regretfully.

    Many of the cultivators that were still painting or writing their poems were panicky saying, "I''m not done yet¡­how can these two be so quick¡­"

    But Yun Chi ignored all of them because this was only apetition between Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan. This does not involve the others originally.

    Xiao Muhan was the first to show Yun Chi and the others his masterpiece painting.

    Many of the cultivators, including Yun Chi could not help gasping softly at the masterful strokes of this painting; in this painting, Yun Chi is really like a peerless goddess and she seems so surreal that it seems that she wille alive from the painting at any time.

    Many of the cultivators were actually asking, "Please quote me a price for your painting!"

    Even Ji Yuan was gasping breathlessly, "Beautiful painting! Brother Xiao Muhan, are you going to give this painting to me? Haha."

    All the painters around Xiao Muhan were all shaking their heads; they could not even measure to one-tenth of Xiao Muhan''s masterful hands.

    Especially the curve that was between Yun Chi''s legs, he could capture it so well and showed Yun Chi in all her captivating beauty.

    Xiao Muhan was extremely proud of his painting as he smiled, "I wish to dedicate this painting to Maiden Yun Chi and I like Maiden Yun Chi to give this painting a name."

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently, "You''ve already got a harem. Why are youpeting with me? You''re not a good friend."

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly to Xiao Muhan, "Maybeter. I''ll like to take a look at Great Hero Ji Yuan''s poem first."

    Ji Yuan chuckled with pride when he had heard that it was his turn and he could not wait to show off his poems.

    He put out the paper scroll for everyone to see as he recited proudly;

    Many of the cultivators were also impressed, especially the poets; Ji Yuan hadpletely captured Yun Chi''s beauty in their hearts with these poetic lines!

    The poets were all shaking their heads as their own poems could not even bepared to a tenth of Ji Yuan''s poem.

    Ji Yuan said proudly, "I call this poem the Mona Lisa!"

    All of a sudden his sharp eyes saw that many of the cultivators were taking their brushes to copy his poem frantically.

    Many were even shamelessly saying, "At least we can copy his poem down¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    There goes his copyright¡­

    Never mind, I shall be the final victor!

    Then he took a hopeful look at Yun Chi and asked, "So what do you think about my poem? Between Xiao Muhan and I, who is the better brush?"

    "Naturally it is me." Xiao Muhan hummed coldly, "And I''m sure that the majority of the cultivators agree with me."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t be too sure about this first. Haha."

    Xiao Muhanughed aloud, "My painting is the only copy in this world. As for your poem, I''m afraid that it is already widely copied and isn''t rare anymore."

    Ji Yuan rebutted him immediately, "It is signed by my hand and the personal hand of the Great Poet Ji Yuan is worth gold. It is not something that imitators can fake. It is as original as yours too."

    All of a sudden there were several cultivators that wereughing around them as they showed to the other cultivators, "Look! I''ve faked his brush strokes. It is really easy to copy his style!"

    Ji Yuan added weakly, "Also my poem has my own personal seal on it. It is not easy to fake it."

    Several cultivators wereughing immediately, "I happen to be good in making all kinds of fake seals¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly as he looked at Yun Chi and showed his most sincere and earnest charm, "What do you think of my poem? So who is the superior brush and who is the inferior brush?"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Great Hero Ji Yuan''s poem is really good but Saint Xiao Mohan''s painting is also equally good. To be honest, I really can''t decide who will be the winner is."

    "You must choose a winner!" Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Mohan insisted at the same time.

    Yun Chi smiled, "Actually both the painting and the poem have a little imperfection."

    "Imperfection?!" Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both horrified at the thought. They said at the same time, "It is perfect!"

    And silently they were both cursing Yun Chi for herck of artistic talent to appreciate their godly works.

    Yun Chi nodded as she said coyly, "If I was to choose my Lord Consort, I will not hesitate to choose Saint Xiao Muhan but this is a fairpetition between two great pieces of arts. Therefore it is actually hard for me to make a decision¡­"

    Ji Yuan was shocked; she will actually choose Xiao Muhan over me?! This is impossible!

    His heart was suddenly pieced by tens of thousands of arrows as he screamed silently with disbelief¡­

    Xiao Muhan wasughing all of a sudden, "I know that I am too irresistible. Muhaha¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Why not do this? May I have Great Hero Ji Yuan to write his poem on Saint Xiao Muhan''s painting. I like Ji Yuan''s poem and I think that it will be perfect on Saint Xiao Muhan''s painting."

    Xiao Muhan stammered, "Then who will be the winner?"

    "That is right." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Both of you can be the winner. Do you agree with me or not that Saint Xiao Mohan''s painting will be more perfect with the poem from Great Hero Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I don''t actually disagree¡­"

    "I must agree that Ji Yuan is really good in his poems and his calligraphy is also better than mine." Xiao Muhan muttered weakly.

    Yun Chi said coyly, "Then it is decided and this painting shall be called Mona Lisa after the name of Ji Yuan''s poem."

    Both Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan nodded at the same time.

    Ji Yuan immediately took his brush to write his poem on Xiao Muhan''s painting. In a short while he was done. Next he wrote the title of Mona Lisa on it and took out his own personal seal to stamp on the painting.

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "I must admit that my painting does look better with this rascal''s poem on it¡­"

    "Nonsense, it is the opposite." Ji Yuan insisted.

    But they were both happy to be the winner at the same time or else it would be such a big loss of face on their reputations.

    Perhaps today''spetition will even be extolled forever in the history of the celestial history for the future generations to remember.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Since thepetition is a dedication to me, why don''t you give me this painting?"

    All of a sudden both Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan disyed an ugly look on their countenance; they both wanted to keep their masterpieces and were reluctant to let the other party have it!

    But because they both wanted to be a gentleman in front of all the cultivators and most importantly, they wanted to impress upon Yun Chi, so they forced themselves to say at the same time. "Naturally this painting will be given to Maiden Yun Chi."

    Yun Chiughed coyly as she took the painting, "Thank you then."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan weakly muttered as they watched the painting disappeared into Yun Chi''s spatial ring, "You''re wee. Very much wee¡­"

    Shui Xisi stepped forward all of a sudden as she chuckled, "Maiden Yun Chi, I beg your pardon! I don''t think Ji Yuan''s poem is good at all!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chiughed coyly, "Why do you say so? Or are you envious of me?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "I''m not envious of you. But I am just curious why you like such a lewd poem and even want to keep as though it is a priceless treasure."

    Yun Chiughed softly, "It is a most beautiful poem. Why do you say that it is a lewd poem?"

    Shui Xisiughed before continuing.

    "The falling raindrops have turned into golden sands. In the vast deserts of vast eternity lies a beautiful goddess. She is like the desert oasis that quenches the thirst, bring hopes and love, the lifeless desert vanishes in front of her charming smiles."

    "Why is that it sounds like some horny men who have an unsatisfied thirst and you''re like a harlot that can bring them hopes and love by satisfying their horny orgasm that is waiting to be quenched like the vast eternal desert? And the falling raindrops is like the saliva of these horny men on you."

    When all the cultivators heard her, they were all stunned. The men were allughing weakly while the maidens were giggling at Yun Chi.

    Ji Yuan was also stunned because the true essence of his poem had just been exposed by Shui Xisi; he had never known that she had such a high level of enlightenment in her poems.

    He just got screwed by his own side¡­

    The smiles that were on Yun Chi had suddenly vanished as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan forced himself to smile back, "I can only tell you that she has totally misinterpreted my poem in the wrong way. You''ve got to believe me¡­"

 Chapter 362 The Perilous Desert Gets Even More Perilous (1)

    Yun Chi smiled all of a sudden as she looked pleasantly at Ji Yuan, "I believe you. Maybe she is being envious of me. That''s all."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly with quick relief, "Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi wasughing softly as well behind her curtain veil, "Who says I''m envious of you? Do you think that you''re the only beautiful maiden around here?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had all formed a circle around Shui Xisi as they chuckled at the same time. "Sisi is indeed speaking the truth!"

    They had all bet against Ji Yuan to win because they simply did not like this Yun Chi who was too mysterious and she was also too aloof.

    Also Ji Yuan actually had the tenacity to dedicate a poem to Yun Chi in their presence.

    This immediately invoked their irk for her.

    Yun Chi smiled coldly, "I''m not?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she stepped forward, "Of course you''re not the most beautiful maiden around. Say, why don''t we have apetition too? But unlike the men, we are going to have a real fight."

    And she had already put her fingers on top of her curtain veil to remove her head dress...

    But Ji Yuan was even faster than her fingers as he caught hold of her slender wrist, "Naturally you''re the most beautiful."

    He was not actually lying.

    Shui Xisi is indeed very beautiful and she has already captured the hearts of many of the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    "Oh? This should be interesting." Yun Chi smiled. "Why not then?"

    Ji Yuan turned to Yun Chi to say firmly, "Sisi is only joking with you. Please don''t put it to heart."

    Shui Xisi protested immediately, "I am not jo-"

    Ji Yuan pulled her away as he whispered weakly, "I will write a personal poem for you."

    Then he whispered to the other maidens, "I will also write a personal poem for all of you."

    When Shui Xisi and the other maidens heard Ji Yuan, they were quickly appeased. "Alright then¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled gently, "Actually we''re not that petty. You should know that we don''t like that Yun Chi."

    And soon they wereughing jovially again.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Women¡­are nothing but trouble¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, what did you just say?" Bai Qianfeng asked him.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Nothing. I''m just saying actually, I don''t like that Yun Chi either."

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang said at the same time in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Like real!"

    Ji Yuan cursed them loudly in his soul sea, "I am not like the two of you who only think with your lower body. She is dangerous."

    Then he was muttering incoherently to himself, "I wonder what she really thinks of my poem?"

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were also muttering incoherently; they obviously can ''see'' the conflicting emotions inside his soul sea.

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li, "It is better that we don''t tell him we know what is in his mind¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Better don''t. Men can be soplex."

    Yun Chi was quietly watching Ji Yuan and his group from afar.

    She quietly put on her upper face mask before she slowly turned away.

    As she turned away, she was rubbing her spatial ring and was slowly reciting Ji Yuan''s poem¡­

    She sighed silently; to think that I''ve almost lost my cool earlier. This Sisi is not easy to be dealt with...

    As she turned back to nce at Ji Yuan, she saw that Bai Qianfeng had also turned back to look at her.

    She returned a pleasant smile to Bai Qianfeng before turning her back to walk away.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly before she turned her back away as well and she was frowning silently; this Yun Chi really gives her the most uneasy feeling¡­

    Feng Minyue was now whispering to Ji Yuan and the others, "Don''t forget that this is an S Rank Trial. There are many cunning traps that are set by the trial. Not only must we fight a battle of the wits with the trial itself but also with the many cultivators here."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan nodded as he rubbed his chin, "This is the question that I''ve been thinking for some time too. The S Trial is divided into the ck walls mountains outside and the red walls red mansion inside. But why? Isn''t it simpler to lure all the cultivators into the red mansion instead?"

    "And there are thousands of cultivators that are outside the red mansion." Ling Feiyue pointed out.

    "But only the smartest one or the most enlightened ones will be willing to walk past the ck walls mountains." Little Princess said.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan gasped softly, "I get it now!"

    All the maidens curiously looked at Ji Yuan as they asked, "You''ve discovered something?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Not entirely. But if I''m not wrong, none of us will be able toplete this trial."

    All the maidens: ???

    Ji Yuan slowly said, "Because none of us will have enough Escape Talismans to reallyplete this trial. Therefore the only way to really stand a chance toplete the trial is to kill Number 404 for it. But even then, it may need several tries."

    All the maidens: ???

    Then he quickly exined to them what Qin Shuang had told him the previous night, "I will lose an Escape talisman if I were to obtain a piece of the Fallen Gods Relic. Number 404 will need to sacrifice one Escape Talisman at the stone page for the entire faction to obtain one piece of the Fallen Gods Relic. At the same time, killing the Number 404 from the other faction will gain the other faction one Escape Talisman."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "This isn''t too hard, am I right? Just kill all the Number 404 from the other factions for our faction and we can gain multiple Escape Talismans."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said bitterly, "If you can even think of this, do you think that the other factions won''t think of this?"

    "Maybe they aren''t that strong as our faction." Shui Xisiughed softly.

    Yu Jingjing was also giggling softly, "Sister Sisi is right. We just need to kill all the other Number 404 from the other factions to gain us unlimited number of Escape Talismans."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were alsoughing softly.

    Only Feng Minyue remained solemn.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Precisely because all of you can think of this, before you can even find Number 404, do you think that the Number 404 will be there for you to kill?"

    Feng Minyue nodded with a weak smile, "Either the Number 404 has already used the Escape Talisman to exit the Greed Ind or Number 404 is already killed by their own faction."

    Shui Xisi looked at Ji Yuan before she said weakly, "I really didn''t think of this."

    Then she chuckled, "But rest assures this. Before the other cultivators can get to you, I will give you a painless death with my sword. In this way, we won''t benefit the other factions as well."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why am I so unlucky to be the Number 404¡­"

    But he quickly said, "We will not kill the other Number 404 for any Escape Talisman."

    All the maidens: ???

    Ji Yuan exined, "Although this is a trial but I don''t believe in killing any innocents just because they are Number 404. Unless they''ve provoked me unnecessary or in self-defense, it is against my honor to use my sword for this purpose."

    "I agree with Ji Yuan." Feng Minyue nodded. "You are doing the right thing. You''re a good man."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly but he was really delighted to receive praises from Feng Minyue.

    Ling Feiyue nodded too, "I''ve to agree with my lord Ji Yuan and Maiden Feng. Although I am not an orthodox cultivator but we do have our martial honor. If we are so desperate to ovee this trial by any means then what is the point of the trial anyway? A trial is meant to test our hearts and temper our souls for our future ascension."

    Yu Jingjing, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and even Little Princess were all nodding as well as they said together, "I agree as well!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially and he felt proud of them, "Then we just have to y this trial with our own rules."

    -

    -

    -

    Gong Xiaotian was now telling his inner group of cultivators, "We shall let Ji Yuan live for another night. Tomorrow, he will be a dead man."

    One of the cultivators asked, "What is the n then?"

    Gong Xiaotian smiled coldly, "Tomorrow you shall all know."

 Chapter 363 The Perilous Desert Gets Even More Perilous (2)

    The Green Faction marched off at the first sight of the sun.

    The night was actually quite short,sting only about eight hours.

    But luckily, they are all cultivators and they do not need longer break except for the injured.

    Ji Yuan was grumbling softly; the night is really too short and they had to trek another sixteen hours nonstop. Even if they are cultivators, the trek is a tiring one.

    He had spent the night talking with the six maidens, renewing their bonds with one another.

    What he did not tell them is that his injuries are actually much more severe than they have thought.

    On the surface, he was stillughing jovially and arguing with Xiao Muhan early in the morning but this was just a brave front that he had put up in front of them; after all the battle with the five seventh rank deste armored spiders was not an easy feat to be aplished without any injuries.

    In the inside, he was cursing why it was taking so long for his wounds to heal. If he exerted himself further, then his more grievous wounds would start to re-open again.

    Three of his wounds actually went quite deep into his body, opening a big gash into his body. If it is not for his newly acquainted golden robe then it would be very obvious to the others.

    But Xiao Muhan had whispered to him, "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that you''re injured. I''ve known you for so many years. Whenever you''re injured, the more jovial you will be and the more you will drink."

    Ji Yuan merely said to him, "Don''t let anyone know about it."

    Ji Yuan was not only the Great Poet Ji Yuan; he was also the Sword Saint Ji Yuan. The number of battles that he had fought were too numerous for him to remember. Injuries weremonce for him.

    The number of golden supremacies that he had defeated were too numerous for him to remember. Luckily for him, there were few saint cultivators who were his challengers.

    The main reason why there were few saint cultivators was because he was not a saint yet a 100 years ago. If a saint cultivator were to challenge him then it would be awkward to their faces since they were of a higher cultivation realm.

    The few saint cultivators that had challenged Ji Yuan had suppressed their profound strength in order to make it into a fair fight.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan and the Green Faction, there were only a few minor fights with some deste monsters along the way.

    There was actually no need for Ji Yuan to step in because he was under ''protection''.

    As a matter of fact, Team 10 did not even need to be mobilized to fight these deste monsters at all.

    And soon it was night.

    The campsite was quickly built by the Green Faction and Gong Xiaotian immediately took his ns into action.

    There were twenty cultivators that were in his inner circle and they were now nning to ambush Ji Yuan, together with Yun Chi as well.

    Gong Xiaotian naturally did not intend to share Ji Yuan''s treasures or Yun Chi with the twenty cultivators.

    He was actually nning to make use of them.

    So he made ns with two cultivators in his inner circle as he promised them, "The three of us will co-operate together. At the end of the day, Ji Yuan''s immortal sword and his golden robe shall be yours to share, as well as Yun Chi after I''ve done with her."

    Then he smirked coldly, "As for the others, I will help you to strike them behind their backs. All you have to do is to strike first."

    He called this the War Team 1.

    Then he made the same secret arrangements with another two cultivators in his inner circle, promising to do the same.

    And this bes the War Team 2.

    Then he repeated to form the War Team 3.

    War Team 4 was also formed in the same manner.

    Soon there was a War Team 5.

    War Team 6 was formed.

    War Team 7 was also formed.

    All the way to War Team 10.

    Gong Xiaotian was nowughing jovially.

    When everything was done after killing Ji Yuan, these cultivators would all kill one another to get their ''spoils of war''.  But in the end, they would all end up dead together, leaving himself to all the battle spoils from everyone.

    The more Gong Xiaotian thought about this, the happier he was.

    Late at night;

    Gong Xiaotian had suddenly summoned Ji Yuan and Yun Chi to his presence as he said to them, "We have found a mysterious underground ruin around here. The reason why I''ve summoned the two of you here is because we''ve found a mysterious ck stele inside. As we''re all co-leaders in the same faction, I feel that I ought to inform all of you as well."

    Then heughed, "As the saying goes, if there are any benefits, as brothers we should share."

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "This is too sexist. What about maidens?"

    Gong Xiaotianughed, "Naturally we will also be sharing as well. That is why I''ve secretly summoned the two of you here. This news is only known to just a few of us."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "There are some things that even brothers cannot share."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    What is he thinking? And what is he trying to say?

    But he pretended to smile and said, "Brother Ji Yuan,e with me to explore this underground ruin. As brother, I will let you have the first pick of any profound treasure that we can find."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Actually what if I say I''m not interested? The two of you can go ahead without me."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    There goes his n¡­

    He began to ask weakly, "May I know why?"

    Ji Yuan coolly exined, "I don''t feel too well tonight. Haha. Maybe I''m still sore about losing to Xiao Muhan yesterday night."

    The real reason was that he had not recovered from his injuries yet. It would be bad if his weakness had been identally exposed to the others. That was why Ji Yuan had declined the invitation.

    Gong Xiaotian was panicky now, "Brother Ji Yuan, please doe with me. Treat it as a favor to me and I will surely repay ten times in return to you in the future."

    Yes, ten times the blood price. Muhaha¡­

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "My mind has already been made up."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Time to modify the n a little. Since Ji Yuan doesn''t want toe, let mey my hands on Maiden Yun Chi first¡­

    Yun Chi chuckled all of a sudden, "Since Great Hero Ji Yuan doesn''t want to go, I don''t want to go as well."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian stammered, "But why? What if you miss the profound treasures that are within the underground ruin? This is an S Rank Trial and the profound treasures are more powerful than elsewhere."

    Yun Chiughed, "That is because I''m just a weak and vulnerable maiden. I only feel safe if Great Hero Ji Yuan is willing to protect me."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he remembered the previous night with her; are you sure you need my protection¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    His masterful n is suddenly gone like the winds now¡­

    But suddenly Ji Yuanughed as he looked at Yun Chi with interest, "I actually don''t mind being a flower guarding bell to Co-Leader Yun Chi. Haha¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly at Ji Yuan, "Is that so? Then why don''t we explore this underground ruin together tonight? Do you think Great Hero Ji Yuan is willing to apany me to it?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Sure. Haha. That will be my great pleasure."

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    Gong Xiaotian: ¡­

    They sure change their minds like changing clothes¡­

    Xiang Li was startled, "Big Brother, didn''t you say Yun Chi is dangerous? So why are you going out with her sote at night? Have you forgotten what happen that night? Something may happen to you."

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "Maybe he is just thinking with his lower body."

    Ji Yuan said righteously, "Actuallye to think of this, she didn''t actually harm me that night, right? Moreover I''ve to thank her for stopping the surprise attack by the other faction. Haha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang muttered, "You say that she is ruthless-"

    "It is only self-defense. Haha." Ji Yuan interrupted with a jovial chuckle.

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Come on. Didn''t you hear Gong Xiaotian? With him around plus there are also some other cultivators as well, will we be in danger from Yun Chi?" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "Maybe the danger wille from Gong Xiaotian."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and growled, "He is a million years too young to be chasing skirts with me."

    Fairy Anyang weakly said, "I didn''t mean this danger."

 Chapter 364 The Perilous Desert Gets Even More Perilous (3)

    As Ji Yuan walked with Yun Chi side by side as he followed Gong Xiaotian and several cultivators, he was also cursing Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang in his soul sea.

    "Why didn''t you stop me?"

    But at the same time his roving eyes were looking at Yun Chi''s slender legs; she really got beautiful legs¡­

    Fairy Anyang protested weakly, "We did!"

    Xiang Li nodded, "Yes, we did!"

    "You should be more insistent! You should know sometimes that I really didn''t mean what I''m saying. And now you''re forcing me to go on a date with Yun Chi!" Ji Yuan sighed to them.

    "You should remember how dangerous she is that night. I actually don''t want to be in any dangerous ce with her around."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan sighed again to them, "But it is not your fault. She is too cunning. She has to use the good man''s card by calling me a hero and pretending to be a vulnerable maiden. s, I am really a sucker when a vulnerable maiden needs my protection."

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "You know and you fall for it."

    Xiang Li giggled, "That''s my Big Brother. He is always up for new game."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, we should really talk. You''re damaging my reputation in front of my Spirit Consort Anyang here."

    Fairy Anyang weakly muttered, "Forget about your reputation. There aren''t any."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then Fairy Anyang smiled, "My lord, you seem to have forgotten something."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "Shouldn''t you dedicate a poem for Xiang Li and I as well? It is only fair."

    Xiang Li giggled, "That''s right! Big Brother, I want a poem too. Write something that is better than the one that you''ve written for Maiden Yun Chi."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Fairy Anyang asked Ji Yuan, "My lord. I''ve found Maiden Yun Chi to be a little suspicious. Do you think that she is the Dea-"

    Ji Yuan firmly said, "She is not the Death God Mingwang for sure. First of all, the Death God Mingwang is a guy. Secondly, she doesn''t have any deste aura on her. She is the same as us."

    He sighed heavily before saying solemnly, "Although voice can be disguised but a person''s aura can never be disguised. As for her real intention, we may never know. But it is better that we guard against her."

    Fairy Anyang asked, "How do you intend to guard against her?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "This is actually the easiest. Never be caught alone with her. Haha."

    -

    -

    -

    Gong Xiaotian had led Ji Yuan and Yun Chi far away from the main camp.

    And soon they hade to deste desert valley where they saw another group of cultivators.

    Gong Xiaotian lit a smile as he said to Ji Yuan and Yun Chi, "We''re here."

    Ji Yuan shifted his eyes to look around suspiciously; he had sense killing malevolent intentions from Gong Xiaotian and the other cultivators¡­

    All of a sudden he had realized that Gong Xiaotian was leading him into an ambush and he was displeased.

    Gong Xiaotian did not know that Ji Yuan was actually extra sensitive when someone was nning to kill him and that he had been ying a game of cat and mouse with the ck Hand Guild, an assassin guild in the past.

    Ji Yuan suddenly said, "Brother Gong! There is no underground ruin, am I right? What game are you ying with me?"

    Gong Xiaotian had turned around with a cold smirk, "It is toote for you to realize it."

    When he had said that, twenty other cultivators had also surrounded Ji Yuan and Yun Chi with their swords that were drawn.

    Gong Xiaotian turned to Yun Chi to smirk coldly, "Maiden Yun Chi, this is none of your business. Step aside first. This is between us and this Ji Yuan."

    His n was simple enough;

    First, get Ji Yuan.

    Second, let the rest of the surviving cultivators fight over Yun Chi and then he will give the final backstabbing to thest remaining cultivators.

    All thest remaining cultivators were actually his remaining cultivators!

    Eventually he would get everything.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Indeed, this has nothing to do with me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Now he has to deal with twenty-one cultivators all alone¡­

    Fairy Anyang sighed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "I''ve told you to be wary of Gong Xiaotian. Now look what happens. Now we''re all going to die because of you. My million years of existence is gone like the winds."

    Xiang Li asked panicky, "Big Brother, do you have any trump cards left? Can you fight in this condition? Can you aim?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "My little brother never miss..."

    He quickly returned his focus back to his uing battle as he brandished his two divine swords out while saying emotionless to Gong Xiaotian and to the rest of the cultivators, "Try me."

    Yun Chi giggled as she interrupted Ji Yuan, "What''s the hurry? I haven''t finished yet. Although this has nothing to do with me, I''ve decided to take your side."

    Not only was Ji Yuan startled but Gong Xiaotian was also startled.

    Ji Yuan didn''t expect that Yun Chi will be fighting on his side.

    Gong Xiaotian said to Yun Chi, "I''ll give you one more chance to decide. We don''t want to hurt you."

    Yun Chi giggled softly, "Do you really think that I am a foolish young maiden that will believe everything that you''ve said? Ji Yuan didn''t offend you and yet you are after his life. Just because you covet his saint-step divine sword? If you can kill him for this, you''re capable of doing anything. I don''t believe that you will let me off after you''ve done with Ji Yuan. After all, you want to maintain your ''good guy'' image."

    Gong Xiaotian said coldly, "Then you will regret it! Everyone, attack!"

    Immediately, all the cultivators were attacking Ji Yuan at the same time as they disyed their powerful profound arts.

    Ji Yuan immediately lifted his left sword defensively to parry off the attacks while he used his saint sword on his right hand for his counter-attack.

    Several cultivators were startled by the profound strength that was disyed by Ji Yuan as they were suddenly knocked back at the same time while one cultivator was overpowered by Ji Yuan''s saint sword that he was crushed thunderously onto the ground with disbelief.

    "He is just a sword cultivator. It is impossible for him to overwhelm us with his profound strength¡­"

    "Don''t engage him with melee strokes. The strength of his divine sword is stronger than us¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Attack him with all our profound arts instead¡­"

    Several profound arts were fired in a barrage around Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan had suddenly turned his two divine swords in a whirlwind direction as he dissipated the profound energies that were being directed at him.

    That was not all.

    He had suddenly mustered his profound strength to execute two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as two bright profound light spammed around him to send all his attackers flying off.

    Four of the unlucky cultivators were caught by the overwhelming profound force and were killed instantly.

    A dozen cultivators all sustained heavy injuries while the rest was lucky to escape without any injuries; mainly because they were either cornering Yun Chi like Gong Xiaotian or were too far away.

    Gong Xiaotian and many of the cultivators could not believe that even saint cultivators would be killed in a single hit by Ji Yuan.

    Their divine sense had warned them of a profound energy build up but they had never suspected that it would be two super profound energies build up instead!

    In a blink of an eye, their divine sense was confused when the super profound energies that suddenly split into two and that was enough to cause chaos for the attackers who were all trying to disy their profound arts to neutralize it or just fleeing.

    Those that did try to retaliate with their profound arts were startled that they were also being overwhelmed by it and some was even killed instantly by their own profound energies.

    Using profound energies to neutralize profound energies can sometimes be extremely dangerous.

    For example, in order to neutralize a profound force, the cultivator must use a profound art that is equaled to 70% of the offensive profound art.

    Below 70%, their profound force will be dissipated and they had to take an extra 30% of their profound force as damage.

    Below 30%, their profound force will be added to the offensive profound force and will rebound upon them.

    None of them had expected that a sword cultivator would be capable of disying such an almighty profound force and many were gasping with shock.

    When the initial shock had cleared, they were stunned to see that there were two glowing sword spirits on both Ji Yuan''s forehand!

    Two sword spirits?!

    This has never happened in the Celestial Realm before!

    Also when a sword spirit is on the forehand instead of the forehead, the cultivator will be transferring the profound might of the sword spirit from a defensive sword aura into an offensive aura.

    And Ji Yuan had two sword spirits.

    All of a sudden they had all realized they had all underestimated Ji Yuan who was rumored to be heavily injured and incapable of exerting his profound strength.

    Not only did he still have the profound strength to wield his two divine swords but he had also just executed a super profound force that will tax the cultivator of almost all their profound strength.

    Gong Xiaotian quickly assured everyone, "Don''t be fooled by his feign attack! After using this super profound attack, he won''t have much profound strength anymore. This is just his feint. Attack everyone!"

    Immediately a dozen cultivators began their counter-attack.

    Gong Xiaotian''s words aroused their spirits once more.

    And he is right.

    It is impossible for Ji Yuan to use such a super profound attack so quickly because right now, his inner spiritual sea must be trying to re-charge itself. And if they could keep Ji Yuan upied by exerting his profound strength nonstop then he would never gain the profound strength to use another super profound attack again.

    Ji Yuan cursed Gong Xiaotian silently as he released a barrage of powerful sword energies that exploded furiously at his attackers.

    But his attackers were all top seventh realm cultivators so naturally his attacks were merely a nuisance to them and he could not stop them from surrounding him once again.

    Ji Yuan''s fingers were trembling now as he engaged the cultivators in a melee. One to one, he was stronger but these cultivators werebining their sword strength together to push him back now and they had also responded by attacking him on all fronts.

    Even though Ji Yuan was cornered, he still took a peek at where Yun Chi was and saw that she was being cornered pathetically and that she was using her bare hands to fight against several divine swords that were being used against her.

    He was quite stunned.

    She is so weak?!

    And she doesn''t even have a divine sword?

    Does she want to lose her fingers or something?!

    So he shouted over to her, "Yun Chi! You''re still pretending to be weak? Use your wings or we will all be dead!"

    Only his excellent swordy was keeping the dozens of sword strokes that were aimed at him at bay now.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had realized that he shouldn''t have said thest word out because he was pretending not to see it in front of her.

    This was not lost on Yun Chi when suddenly, she had grown a pair of white metallic wings on her bare back, startling all the onlookers.

    And before all the cultivators could react to it, the white feathers that were her wings were flying out in the form of twenty-four sharp flying swords, dismembering everyone to pieces in a blink of an eye, except for Ji Yuan.

    And the twenty-four flying swords were now hovering around Ji Yuan, ready to attack him at any time.

    Ji Yuan had never seen such swift swords before and he had never seen real flying swords and she had twenty-four flying swords¡­

    Moreover these twenty-four flying swords were all immortal-step divine swords as pronounced by their sword auras¡­

    Too fierce!

    How the heck

    Yun Chi was smiling coldly now, "So you''ve already known long ago."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I was only babbling nonsense earlier. How the heck do I know that you really have a pair of sword wings."

    Xiang Li weakly said, "Big Brother, you are saying that as long as you are not alone with her, you will be alright, am I right?"

    Fairy Anyang was also saying weakly, "Now you''re alone with her¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But he was now saying weakly to Yun Chi, "Maiden Yun Chi, erm¡­are we allies? You can put away your swords now. They are all dead now."

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Are we allies? When did that happen? I only remember that you don''t want me to be in your party. Isn''t it toote to im to be my ally now?"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly all of a sudden, "You''re too shameless!"

    "I''m shameless? In what way?" Yun Chi smiled.

    "Of course you''re too shameless! You''ve taken my betrothed gift and now you want to kill your future lord?" Ji Yuan hummed coldly.

    Yun Chi giggled, "You''re the shameless one. When did I ever take your betrothed gift?"

    Ji Yuan said righteously, "That painting with my dedicated poem that is for you, is my betrothed gift to you and you''ve already epted it!"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Well said, Big Brother!"

    Fairy Anyang sighed heavily, "This is not going to get you out of this situation. You''re just saying this out of desperation."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Then do you have any other solution?"

 Chapter 365 Romancing In The Underground Ruin (1)

    Ji Yuan said again, "So aren''t you shameless or what? You have imed that you would like to have me as your future lord. In front of everyone, I can''t promise you directly but look at the poem that I''ve written for you. All my great love is there for you to see!"

    Then he said righteously, "In front of everyone, I''ve professed my longings and love for you. What''s more do you want? What proof do you want?"

    Xiang Li gasped in his soul sea, "Big Brother, well said. You can be an actor too!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled back, "I''m thinking that will be my next profession."

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "If you manage to make it through tonight, that is."

    Yun Chi shuddered a little after hearing Ji Yuan and her twenty-four hovering flying swords around him were also wavering at the same time.

    "But you on the other hand, are just toying with my feelings!" Ji Yuan said coldly, "And you even want to kill me!"

    Then he took out the Escape Talisman and said, "But if you want to kill me, I will like to know if your swords are faster or my Escape Talisman is faster."

    Unlike the other cultivators who were unprepared earlier and got killed, Ji Yuan was telling her that he was fully prepared to ''escape'' at a short notice.

    But of course he was not preparing to do it because he would end up screwing himself; if the Death God Mingwang had setup a sword array outside that is triggerable only if he shows up, then he would have to fight the clone of the Death God Mingwang.

    Since the Death God Mingwang is also in the trial as well then if he will use the Escape Talisman immediately then Ji Yuan would be cornered by him.

    "Don''t forget that I''m Number 404. You need my help toplete the trial!"

    "I will keep your secret for you¡­"

    "You''re joking with me, am I right?"

    "Dear Yun Chi¡­"

    Ji Yuan was now babbling nonstop.

    Yun Chi was rolling her golden eyes as she looked at Ji Yuan; she did not want to kill him yet because he still has some uses.

    Most importantly, she was slightly confused and amused by him when he had suddenly told her that he had already given her his betrothed gift in the form of a poem.

    Truth was, she had been sleepless that night after Ji Yuan hadposed the poem for her and she had secretly taken out the painting to recite his poem and to appreciate his handwriting.

    But she still has to teach him a lesson first.

    And she was also interested to know how strong his sword skill was.

    And so, she raised her fingers tounch all twenty-four of her flying swords at him.

    Ji Yuan was startled; she is not afraid that I will use the Escape Talisman?

    The twenty-four swords immediately attacked like a shooting star all around Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan was even quicker as he parried all the attacking flying swords that were all around him as he charged toward Yun Chi.

    His attacking speed had suddenly doubled, especially his main sword arm that was reacting three times as fast.

    Ji Yuan knew that Yun Chi''s flying swords were really swift and powerful, capable of piercing through the profound animus of even the saint cultivators and even dismembered their almost indestructible golden skeleton so he dared not be careless.

    Moreover he had used the precious moments to quickly recover some of his profound strength.

    He was merely distracting her while he used his profound recovery to his advantage; his profound recovery is many times faster than most of the saint cultivators because he is a sword energy practitioner.

    Yun Chi actually did not send her flying swords to go through to Ji Yuan but had controlled it to stop at the precise moment.

    But when she saw Ji Yuan was capable of fending off her flying divine swords, her attacks got bolder too.

    Ji Yuan was thinking as he sped toward her; I need to get her before the end of my vital energies breath. But these damn flying swords of hers are distracting me and using the bulk of my profound strength¡­

    Yun Chi was smiling all of a sudden as Ji Yuan sped toward her.

    Six of her flying divine swords were suddenly by her side immediately and were hovering around her, ready to fly toward him.

    "So the renown of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is just so and so¡­"

    Ji Yuan gasped, "Oh darn¡­"

    He had suddenly realized that he had cornered himself into her barrage of flying swords on all sides without a chance to evade now¡­

    But all of a sudden a powerful profound force had exploded in another direction and had surprised both Ji Yuan and Yun Chi at the same time.

    It hade from the ''dead'' Gong Xiaotian. Although he had appeared to be dead and was severely maimed but he had used his secret profound art to y dead.

    When he saw that Ji Yuan and Yun Chi were both engaged in a fierce fight together, he had used the secret profound art that he had learnt in the red mansion to attack all of a sudden.

    This secret profound art was extremely powerful but it had a heavy price; the cultivator must use his life force energies as a price.

    At this time, Gong Xiaotian was already driven by the madness of enacting his vengeance on both Ji Yuan and Yun Chi so preserving his life was no longer his consideration.

    Moreover if he wants to surprise them then he had to use his life force energies instead or else their divine sense would alert them to his profound energies build-up.

    A simr size life force energies profound force is many times more powerful than a typical profound force. After all, life force energies used up the life force energies in the inner spiritual sea instead of the usual spiritual energies.

    Both Ji Yuan and Yun Chi were struck by the profound force that exploded furiously like a white nova on them!<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi immediately raised her sleeves to shield her face while she diverted her six hovering flying swords to dismember Gong Xiaotian, killing him for good this time.

    Gong Xiaotian was stunned when he had died; he had never thought that Yun Chi would react this fast. He did not even have a chance to use the Escape Talisman that he had prepared in his fingers!

    As for Ji Yuan and Yun Chi, at the same time that they were both struck by the white nova-like profound force, the ground below them had also given away and they were suddenly plunged into the dark abyss below.

    Ji Yuan and Yun Chi were still fighting with each other furiously when they had suddenly plunged into the deep dark waters below.

    They were both gasping with shock; it was because the golden skeletons of the golden celestials are denser and heavier than a non-golden celestial. This will cause them to sink rapidly in the deep waters.

    Plus their spatial rings contain their divine swords and other heavy items that will also drag them into the waters; spatial rings do not eliminate the weight at all.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had suddenly plunged into the waters; he did not know how to swim!

    Although he cannot drown immediately since he can hold his breath almost indefinite as long as he still has his spiritual energies but he cannot renew his spirit energies while he is still underwater.

    He must be the first MC in the cultivation stories that is afraid of water and probably drown in the water as well.

    He began to recall the poor fishes that he had saved by throwing them into the water, causing them to be drowned.

    When he was a young kid, he had also remembered throwing a tortoise into a pond of water, drowning it as well.

    He had always thought that all tortoises are able to swim but the unfortunate tortoise that he had thrown into the water happened to be a tortoise that cannot swim.

    This must be his bad karma.

    Water is scary!

    His mind was frantically thinking what he should do once he had dropped into the water.

    He must definitely struggle in order to reach to the surface or he would drown.

    Therefore he began to struggle very hard in the darkness of the deep water.

    Then his sharp eyes saw two balloons in the dark waters on top of him.

    Balloons will float to the surface, right?

    So he immediately swam toward it to grab onto the soft balloons!

    Yun Chi gasped loudly, "Let go of me, you pervert!"

    Ji Yuan was not only grabbing her boobs but he was also pulling her short skirt as well.

    It took Ji Yuan a while to realize what was going on and he saw that Yun Chi''s short red skirt had all fluttered up and that she was wearing transparent grey panties¡­

    But no matter what happened today, Ji Yuan simply refused to let go of the balloons that he had caught firmly or else he would be drowned by the fast moving underground river and he could see furious underwater whirlpools all around them.

    And the two of them were suddenly entangled in the dark waters; one trying to free herself from the other and the other trying to hold onto the other.

    p After an hour of struggling and entanglement in the dark waters, Ji Yuan and Yun Chi had pulled themselves to the nearest bank of the underground river that was flowing with torrential speed; they were basically pulling each other tightly.</anda>

    Ji Yuan spat out the water as he muttered weakly, "Haha, I didn''t drown¡­sorry Maiden Yun Chi¡­"

    No response¡­

    Did she drown?

    Ji Yuan quickly took a look at Yun Chi; he was quite startled to see that she had turned ashen and that she was trembling uncontrobly.

    She was having an epileptic seizure?!

    Ji Yuan was stunned; she can''t swim too?! And she is even more afraid of water than him¡­

    No, wait!

    Is she faking it to lure him intocency and then to attack him?

    Then he noticed something.

    Her belt was loosened.

    And her panties was pulled down by him earlier.

    His wandering eyes began to stare hard¡­

    And even her red robe was pull aside by him, exposing her perked bust front¡­

    She seemed to have lost control of her profound strength; hence her belt could be loosened, causing her robe to be loosened and he could even pull down her panties earlier¡­

    Ji Yuan stared hard as he rubbed his chin;

    What if this was an act?

    There is only one way to find out¡­

 Chapter 366 Romancing In The Underground Ruin (2)

    Ji Yuan was staring hard at the trembling Yun Chi now who was having a fit.

    He was rubbing his chin and thinking if she may be faking it; there is only one way to find out¡­

    For a moment, he was thinking of touching her to find out.

    But he quickly decided against it.

    After all, he is a gentleman of the sword and he will not do anything like this to an unconscious maiden.

    Pure Heart: +1

    Inner Demon: 0

    So he decided to consult his two spirit consorts in his soul sea instead;

    "She may be faking her fit."

    Fairy Anyang frowned, "It looks real to me."

    "What are you nning to do?" Xiang Li asked with a hopeful voice. "Are you going to do anything funny to her if that is the case?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What are you thinking Xiang Li. I''m a gentleman of the sword, you know."

    "Then why aren''t you covering her up?" Fairy Anyang asked.

    "I''m erm¡­checking for secret weapons first." Ji Yuan exined. "This is too good a chance to miss."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan exined righteously, "The most dangerous weapon isn''t in the spatial ring usually. When a cultivator takes something from their spatial ring, all the other cultivators will be able to know with their divine sense. And a woman''s clothing has plenty of hiding ces."

    Fairy Anyang weakly muttered, "She is wearing a short skirt bare back dress¡­you can''t hide anything in there¡­"

    "Out of habit, I must be extra cautious." Ji Yuan protested weakly when he realized that Fairy Anyang was right. "After all, a cultivator has a long life and you don''t want to die prematurely before you can ascend to the Immortal Realm."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had bent down in front of Yun Chi with his loose robe and he had caught of Yun Chi''s translucent grey panties.

    Fairy Anyang gave a startled cry inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "My lord, what are you doing?!"

    Xiang Li was also startled, "Big Brother, this doesn''t look right!"

    Ji Yuan weakly replied to them, "You''ve belittled your lord. Although I may be lecherous at times but I''m a gentleman of the sword. I am trying to help her put on her panties before she can recover her wits."

    After Ji Yuan had exined it, both Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang heaved a soft sigh of relief.

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "I''ve thought that you can''t resist your masculine profound pills that are acting upon you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Don''t remind me of this¡­"

    He had taken five masculine profound pills at a single go and each of the masculine profound pill wouldst for a month.

    Although he had it under control for now but seeing Yun Chi in such a manner, actually excited him a lot.

    But luckily, Ji Yuan had a good willpower and he was exercising the highest divine state of his heart intricacy to prevent himself from doing anything indecent to Yun Chi.

    His inner demons were warning him;

    You will regret this!

    This is too good of an opportunity to be missed!

    She will never know!

    Time to conquer her!

    Bring her into your harem!

    Strip herpletely and teach her a lesson!

    But Ji Yuanpletely ignored his inner demons and hold steadfast to his pure heart.

    Because of his inner heart struggles, he was actually still holding onto Yun Chi''s panties and was admiring her body along the way¡­

    He muttered weakly as he stared at her, "She is like a goddess¡­so beautiful¡­"

    As he began to pull her panties up, all of a sudden Yun Chi had opened her eyes and had gasped aloud.

    Before Ji Yuan could react, he was kicked in his crotch and he was sent flying off with Yun Chi''s panties in his hands.

    Yun Chi was bleary eyes as she quickly pulled her loosen robe together, "Ji Yuan, you! I didn''t think that you will be such a despicable man!"

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Hear me out! I can exin!"

    Yun Chi said with trembling lips as she shed her hovering flying swords again, "What is there to exin?! Exin what is in your hands and your indecent appearance!"

    Ji Yuan looked at the gray panties that was in his hand and was speechless; he was merely trying to help her to put her panties on but he had never expected that she would suddenly wake up and had given him a kick. That was how he had now ended up with her panties in his hands¡­

    Then he noticed another thing too and was startled; his robe was also loosened and even his pants was pull down¡­

    He was not the only one that had pulled at her clothing while they were underwater earlier, she was also pulling at his clothing as well...

    It was only now that he had noticed that he was also half-naked. He was so caught up by her peerless appearance that he did not realize he was in an indecent state.

    He weakly said, "If I tell you that this is all a misunderstanding, will you believe me?"

    Yun Chi sobbed, "No!"

    Ji Yuan weakly raised his hand forward, "Your panties¡­"

    "You can keep it!" Yun Chi said coldly as she trembled nonstop.

    Ji Yuan quickly tucked her panties under his sleeves while he adjusted his robe at the same time, "Maiden Yun Chi, look. I really didn''t see anything at all and this is all a misunderstanding."

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly to Xiang Li, "I think our lord really got nothing better to say now. She is not going to believe him for sure."

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself, "Yea. Big Brother is screwed now and so are we."<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Anyang sighed, "You''ve got anyst words to say now?"

    Xiang Li nodded slowly, "I want to be Big Brother''s real bride in a bridal chamber."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Yun Chi hadunched her hovering flying swords in her rage now.

    A dozen flying swords shed toward Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan easily parried off these hovering flying swords because Yun Chi was still trembling nonstop from rage and she was still having her fit now. Therefore her control of her flying swords was not in her usual form.

    Ji Yuan quickly parried off her flying swords before he brandished his swords in front of her, "Maiden Yun Chi! Please hear me out first!"

    He was actually quite surprised that he was able to ovee her so easily this time but he had her sudden fits to be thankful for.

    Even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were heaving quick signs of reliefs.

    Yun Chi was startled when she saw that Ji Yuan''s swords were on her throat now, "I¡­will lose¡­this is...impossible¡­"

    But she continued to say with trembling lips as her golden eyes had suddenly turned malevolent, "Ji Yuan, our fight isn''t over yet¡­"

    "Our fight is over!" Ji Yuan insisted before he withdrawn his swords from her neck.

    Then he added breathlessly, "Rest assures that I won''t tell anyone what has happened today. And I won''t tell anyone that I''ve seen your wings or your divine swords."

    "You''re pitying me?" Yun Chi bit her trembling lips and she was also trying to suppress her teething anger at the same time.

    Ji Yuan muttered to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang in his soul sea, "She doesn''t believe me? How? It either she dies or I die now. When she has recovered her profound strength or from her fits, we are going to have another showdown again."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, since you''ve seen everything and she is going to hate you for this. Why not turn her hate to love instead?"

    Fairy Anyang agreed, "This may be your only way out."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Xiang Li, you still have the mood tough now. Then won''t I be toying with her feeling instead? I don''t love her, you know. Moreover I haven''t wooed sessfully Maiden Feng yet. Maiden Feng is my ideal target."

    Xiang Li answered with a soft chuckle, "How about Wan''Er and Chen Hanhan. I don''t think you really love them too, am I right? But yet you''re willing to take them as your consorts."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I just don''t want to break their hearts. I''m not a yboy."

    Xiang Li giggled, "How about Yu Jingjing?"

    Ji Yuan frowned again, "You should know the reason. I''ve to take responsibility for my actions."

    "Then what about Maiden Yun Chi?" Xiang Li giggled. "Don''t you have to take responsibility for your actions today?"

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "Do you have to think so hard between a beautiful lie with a beautiful maiden or having a terrible enemy who is also a beautiful maiden?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then he muttered, "You''re right. But it is only because the two of you force me to pick the beautiful lie with a beautiful maiden. I''ve no other choices."

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    So Ji Yuan quickly said to Yun Chi as he pretended to be angry, "Do you not know my heart by now? Why do you doubt me?"

    Yun Chi was startled by his sudden outrage.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had drawn her to him by grabbing hold of her slender waist, "Dear Maiden Yun Chi, I love you from the first moment that my eyes have caught hold of you. Do you know that? You''re like a goddess that has suddenly appeared in my life. I don''t care who you are but I''m going to take you as my consort whether you like it or not."

    And without waiting for Yun Chi to reply him, Ji Yuan had suddenly bent over to kiss her trembling lips.

    Soon it had suddenly turned into a passionate kiss as the two of them were suddenly in tight embrace.

    Yun Chi had a look of confusion in her eyes and when Ji Yuan had suddenly kissed her; she was actually trying to push him away.

    But all of a sudden, she shocked herself by kissing him back passionately and exploring her tongue with his tongue¡­

    To her disbelief, she was actually moaning softly as she said to him, "Don''t you dare to lie to me or I''ll make sure you won''t live to see the next day."

    Ji Yuan responded by wandering his hands all over her bare back and below her skirt¡­

    He began to sniff her fragrance scent as he said gently to her, "Yun Chi, you''re my goddess and I love you so much. Don''t forget that my poem for you is my betrothed gift for you..."

    Yun Chi gasped softly when she had suddenly recalled Ji Yuan''s poem for her and she was flushing shyly now...

    Ji Yuan was now kissing her neck tenderly as he sniffed at the same time, "My dear Yun Chi, your scent is so heavenly and intoxicating..."

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was trembling in Yun Chi''s embrace and this was not lost on Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang who could see the turmoil in his soul sea.

    "Big Brother, what is wrong?" Xiang Li asked him curiously.

    "Maybe he is too excited?" Fairy Anyang offered a suggestion.

    Ji Yuan panicky said to them, "Xiang Li, Anyang. This time we''re screwed and it is all your fault!"

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ???

    Ji Yuan panicky sighed, "Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang! The Death God Mingwang is Yun Chi! They are the same person! This time, I am truly screwed!"

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: !!!

    Xiang Li panicky asked, "Big Brother, how do you know that you''re right? Didn''t you say that she has no deste aura on her?"

    Ji Yuan said with trembling voice, "My nose has picked up the scent of the Death God Mingwang on her when I am kissing her. This I can''t be wrong¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had just recalled the weird malevolent nces that she had shed earlier. Now he had recalled where he had seen this terrifying nce before.

    Moreover if she was not the Death God Mingwang, how then did she know that he won''t use the Escape Talisman and had attacked him earlier?

    He still could not exin why Yun Chi did not have any deste aura on her but he was really convinced that he was not wrong because his nose had never failed him before!

 Chapter 367 Romancing In The Underground Ruin (3)

    Yun Chi had suddenly asked Ji Yuan, "Are you alright?"

    She could feel that he was trembling nonstop when he was holding her.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am just too excited, that''s all. I''ve been dreaming of holding you all this while and now it has finallye true today."

    Yun Chi averted her eyes shyly when she had heard him.

    But Ji Yuan was now saying exasperatingly to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "I''ve told you that she is dangerous. Now look what''ve you done? Do we have any backup n now?"

    Fairy Anyang answered weakly, "You''ve to carry through the act now."

    "And pretending not to know her true identity." Xiang Li pointed out.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi whispered in Ji Yuan''s embrace, "Ji Yuan, you don''t want to know who I am?"

    Ji Yuan replied firmly, "Who you are is not important. You''re Yun Chi, the maiden of my heart."

    Yun Chi looked up at him and slowly looked into his eyes¡­

    Ji Yuan maintained his unflinching golden eyes as he pretended to look with great sincerity back into her eyes.

    Then he could feel her fingers were resting on his chest.

    He quickly used his control heartbeat skill to control his heartbeat.

    Yun Chi smiled, "You do not seem to be lying."

    Then she rest her head gently on his chest before whispering softly, "I will tell you when the timese."

    This time Ji Yuan was even more nervous when he saw that her head was on his chest so he disyed his control heartbeat skill to the highest level that he could manage and stopped his heartbeatpletely.

    Ji Yuan suddenly decided that he cannot be passive or his cover would be blown.

    So he grabbed Yun Chi by her butt and began to kiss her passionately again.

    Before he knew it, he was stripping her again.

    Yun Chi was gasping; she could not believe how easily she had loosened the grip on the profound force in her robe when she was being kissed by Ji Yuan.

    It was only when Ji Yuan had turned her around to lean on the wall and he was looking between her legs that she had suddenly realized what he was trying to do.

    So she quickly fastened her robe again and pushed him back gently with a smile, "Next time when you are my lord but not before that."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly when he was suddenly being pushed back.

    He had almost banged the Death God Mingwang...

    Luckily he was being pushed by her for he was being consumed by the lusts that were stirred by the five masculine profound pills and had lost control of his actions.

    He had already forgotten that she was his enemy as well as the Death God Mingwang.

    He weakly said, "So how do we get out of this ce? It seems that we have fallen into a deep chasm. It may take us hours, if not days to find our way out of this ce."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Just leave it to me and I will get us out of here. I need some rest first."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Yun Chi began to pop in some pills and then she had closed her eyes to meditate.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he too began to pop in some pills too.

    However his heart was anxious because he was unsure what she would do after she had regained her profound strength.

    Earlier, Gong Xiaotian had actually aimed at Yun Chi as she was the one that had maimed him. So she had actually taken the blunt of Gong Xiaotian''s devastating profound attack.

    And when Yun Chi and Ji Yuan had both fallen together into the chasm that had appeared, most of Yun Chi''s profound strength had been used to shield herself from the Gong Xiaotian''s attack.

    Coupled with the underwater battle with Ji Yuan, she had actually exhausted most of her profound strength temporary.

    While Yun Chi was meditating serenely, Ji Yuan had a confused look on his countenance as he secretly watched Yun Chi with great cageyness.

    He is not a fool to think that Yun Chi would fall in love with him so readily.

    Maybe she is just trying to regain her profound strength before waiting to finish him off?

    Then should he act now before she acts against him?

    No wait!

    His instinct tells him that Yun Chi''s actually has notpletely exhausted all her profound strength yet and that she is merely only putting on an act.

    Because if she is the Death God Mingwang then it is impossible for her profound strength to be drained just like this.

    Ji Yuan was actually right.

    As Yun Chi meditated, she was actually secretly looking at Ji Yuan as well.

    Her cheeks were still flustered by the earlier experiences...

    Her most private parts had been seen by Ji Yuan¡­

    She was now unsure of her feelings now.

    And even more confused now because Ji Yuan is the one that she is supposed to kill in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    She is actually the Death God Mingwang and she has pretended to get close to him to study his weakness.

    Ji Yuan would never suspect that she will be the Death God Mingwang because she had not only disguised her voice to a masculine one but she also had the ability to hide her profound aura.

    Not even the Great Demon God knows of this secret of hers.

    Also she had another heaven-defying secret; she actually had two types of profound forces, the Deste and Righteous Force within her.

    To get close to Ji Yuan, she had suppressed her deste force.

    Earlier when Ji Yuan had outraged her, she had almost released her deste force in her rage to finish him off but she was suddenly confused by Ji Yuan''s deration of love for her.<sub> </sub>

    Does he really mean what he is saying?

    Didn''t he say that I''m an ugly and cocky maiden previously?

    Ji Yuan had said to her, "Dear Maiden Yun Chi, I love you from the first moment that my eyes have caught hold of you. Do you know that? You''re like a goddess that has suddenly appeared in my life. I don''t care who you are but I''m going to take you as my consort whether you like it or not."

    Then he had kissed her passionately and she had alsocked the will to resist him.

    He doesn''t care who I am? Not even if I''m the Death God Mingwang, the enemy of the Pangu Immortals?

    Is he serious?

    And of course there was another reason why she had cast away her Death God Mingwang guise in this trial.

    She had actually arrived much earlier than Ji Yuan and had unfortunately failed the Greed Ind Trial.

    The cunning nature of the trial itself prevented her from killing the cultivators and making it through as a solo trial. Unless she could ovee this trial, she would be struck on the fifth level.

    That was also one of the reasons why she had pretended to offer Ji Yuan a truce previously when he had met the ''Death God Mingwang'' at the ck walls mountains.

    At the time, she had actually wanted to kill Ji Yuan directly but when she saw Bai Qianfeng, she had changed her mind immediately.

    It was because Bai Qianfeng aka the Goddess Abyssal Null had seemingly lost her deste force and only has the righteous force now.

    This fact intrigued her because it means that the Goddess Abyssal Null has the potential to learn her unique Dual Profound Forces.

    Therefore she had given her some time to think over.

    And the stake is of course with the life of Ji Yuan as a condition.

    What happened next with Ji Yuane to a total surprise to her when he had suddenly dered his love for her.

    Normally, she would not be moved but Ji Yuan was a little special.

    It was because he was a very strong sword cultivator like her and she believed that Ji Yuan''s sword art has the potential to be on par with her.

    And she was partially intrigued how Ji Yuan got his saintly divine sword.

    Only the strongest immortal cultivators will have a saintly divine sword but it may not always be the case.

    For example, both she and the Deste Dragon Lord Longdi did not have one.

    An immortal divine sword is already a powerful existence.

    And Ji Yuan had both an immortal-step and a saint-step divine sword at the same time.

    At the same time she was aware that Ji Yuan also had the Goddess'' Tear and she was a little afraid that he may use the Goddess'' Tear as a weapon against her.

    But the most important reason was that her heart had suddenly changed that night when Ji Yuan had dedicated a poem in front of all the cultivators to her; it is really a most beautiful poem and she is touched by it...

    All of a sudden her nk began to grow nk when she recalled that Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her boobs out of nowhere when she was about to escape from the strong underwater currents.

    At that time she had paused briefly to re-align all her divine swords into her wings to burst through the waters when Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her cleavage, stunning her.

    Actually she had a great fear of water and when Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her, she had an epilepsy fit all of a sudden.

    She was greatly embarrassed by it as she muttered to herself; to think that the Death God Mingwang will be afraid of water. If Ji Yuan knows about my true identity, he will be sure to mock me because of this¡­

    No, Ji Yuan will never know who she is¡­

    Because he looks like a dimwitted cultivator¡­

    And moreover she is sure that her disguise is perfect.

    Recollecting all her thoughts, she stabilized her unstable emotions as she slowly recovered from the effects of her epilepsy.

    She began to open her eyes to smile coyly at Ji Yuan who was watching her nearby. "I''ve recovered. Shall we go back to the surface now?"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "How? I''ve just checked our surrounding. There is nothing but water around us. We''re struck here unless we can swim."

    Yun Chi''s bare back burst forth with her twelve pair of divine sword wings all of a sudden as she grabbed Ji Yuan to fly upward.

    "We will fly up of course."

    Ji Yuan was stunned; she can fly?!

    In just a few short blinks of an eye, she had lifted Ji Yuan up to the surface as she sped upward like a shooting star.

    Ji Yuan had a sudden headache all of a sudden; how the heck can he even outrun an opponent that can fly faster than he can run?!

    "Ji Yuan, do you really love me?" Yun Chi giggled coyly all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan looked weakly at the great height below them and answered, "Of course I do!"

    One wrong answer and he would be dropped back to the chasm below...

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly at his answer before she added shyly, "Then can you swear by your soul sea to me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "My soul sea is doomed¡­"

    Xiang Li reminded him with a giggle, "It''s not like you really care."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­"

    "I can swear by my soul sea that I love you." Ji Yuan said firmly to Yun Chi. "But I hope that you will restraint yourself from killing unnecessary. It isn''t right to kill recklessly. You have me now. Let me do the killing instead. I don''t want your hands to be tainted with blood."

    Yun Chi nodded without any hesitation, "Alright. I will restraint myself then."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes; she had agreed so readily?

    But he quickly said, "I swear by my soul sea that I will love Maiden Yun Chi forever and to take her as my consort¡­"

 Chapter 368 Im Only Toying With Yun Chi

    Yun Chi was holding onto Ji Yuan''s arm when they had returned to camp.

    And she was whispering coyly to him, "Ji Yuan, am I ugly or cocky?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course not. Whoever says that must be a blind and ugly cultivator. Haha."

    When the many cultivators saw them, they were surprised to see them holding hands.

    And the most stunned cultivator was Xiao Muhan; he just got green by his best friend and his goddess is in his Brother Ji Yuan''s arm now.

    It was because Ji Yuan had told him that he was not interested in Yun Chi and had told him to go after her if he wants to woo her

    Perhaps the most astonishing looks were given by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    Ling Feiyue gasped to the others when she saw them walking into the camp together, "Why are they together and they''re even gathering everyone to make an announcement?"

    "Don''t tell me that they are announcing that they''re together?" Shui Xisi immediately gave a displeasure frown.

    Yu Jingjing shook her head as she said weakly, "This shouldn''t be. Just a few hours ago, our lord has sworn in his soul sea that he has no interest in Yun Chi whatever so."

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "Ji Yuan is a lowly uncultured peasant. He can swear by his soul without any thoughts to his future consequences to his soul sea."

    "But he has a pure soul sea." Feng Minyue weakly pointed out.

    Ling Feiyue smiled bitterly, "You don''t want to know how impure his soul sea is before you''ve known him."

    Even Bai Qianfeng was saying, "Ji Yuan is too much. He actually dares to lie to us!"

    "Maybe Ji Yuan has a reason why?" Feng Minyue said quietly.

    Shui Xisi hummed, "Don''t tell me that he can''t push Yun Chi away from him? You can''t exin why she is holding his arm so blissfully now and he is not even feeling awkward about it."

    Yu Jingjing nodded, "Even the poems that he has written for us are just mediocrepared to the one that he has written for Yun Chi!"

    "With the exception of Maiden Feng, of course." Bai Qianfeng smiled coldly.

    All the rest of the maidens were staring coldly at Feng Minyue now and nodding.

    Feng Minyue had a sudden flush when she had heard Bai Qianfeng.

    What Bai Qianfeng had just said happened to be the truth.

    Ji Yuan had indeed spent more effort on the poem for Feng Minyue earlier; he had been hard pressed toe out with a poem for everyone just before Gong Xiaotian paid him a sudden visit to investigate an underground ruin earlier.

    Feng Minyue was looking very confused now because Ji Yuan did not seem to be interested in her but he had actually written a dedicated song and poem for her.

    She lowered her head while thinking perplexedly; maybe he is only a lecherous cultivator. His actions speak louder than words. If he is not a flirtatious man why then is he chasing the skirt of Maiden Yun Chi and not me¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan quickly gathered the other cultivators to tell them the ''bad'' news.

    That they, together with Gong Xiaotian and twenty other cultivators had met with a mishap while scouting the perimeter of the camp.

    "We''ve encountered an epic seventh rank deste monster and are lucky to make it back alive."

    Finally Ji Yuan said to them, "Brother Gong Xiaotian has made me the new vanguard leader¡­"

    "But because Great Hero Ji Yuan is also the Number 404 so after we''ve discussed over it, I will lead the vanguard team instead." Yun Chi interrupted with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yeah, right¡­"

    Ximen Wudi immediately protested loudly, "Why should we believe what you''ve just said? What if you''ve killed Gong Xiaotian and the others instead?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why don''t you ask Gong Xiaotian and the otherster? We didn''t say that they''re dead. They are forced to use their Escape Talisman instead."

    Fairy Anyang shook her head in his soul sea, "Lies, lies, lies¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother is the best!"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "You''re encouraging him?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "Um¡­is wrong?"

    Ximen Wudi hummed coldly, "And the two of you happen to be unscathed? I don''t believe. Everyone knows that the two of you are in cahoots together."

    Ji Yuan growled, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words¡­"

    "Not only did we all witness you writing a love poem to Maiden Yun Chi the previous night but she is always in yourpany." Ximen Wudi interrupted coldly.

    Ji Yuan growled, "What the heck? She is always in mypany?! This is too ridiculous¡­"

    "Yes, they are always together¡­"

    "I keep seeing them together¡­"

    "In the red mansion, they''ve already known each other¡­"

    "And Maiden Yun Chi even asks to be in the same team as this Ji Yuan¡­"

    "And she calls him Great Hero too¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were muttering among themselves as well, "Why is Ji Yuan alone with Yun Chi? Howe they''re together?"

    Ji Yuan began to say righteously, "Of course I will survive. I''m Number 404. For the sake of everyone here, Brother Gong Xiaotian has used his brilliant leadership to ensure that I will escape back to the camp. And yet, you''re all shamelessly doubting me? Shame on all of you!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "My lord, you''re making it worse. You need to leave some room for them to be convinced to your side."

    Ximen Wudiughed coldly as he stepped forward, "This is just your one sided opinion only."

    As he stepped forward, twenty cultivators that were on his side had also stepped forward as well and it was obvious that they were all spoiling for a fight. After all, they all know that Ji Yuan had several epitome profound treasures on him.

    Ji Yuanughed as he brandished his two divine swords in front of him, thrusting it deep into the ground in front of him with a thunderous impact that shook the entire campsite with his profound strength.

    All of a sudden the opposing cultivators had tuned ashen immediately when they saw the two sword spirits that were on both Ji Yuan''s forehands.

    Previously they had all witnessed the double divine halo that were on both his divine swords that was an indication of his perfect divine harmony with his divine swords and were greatly startled by the sight.

    But now they were refusing to believe that they were now seeing two sword spirits that were on his forehands and he had even mastered his sword spirits to the offensive level.

    Many of the cultivators were staring with disbelief!

    When Ji Yuan was in the Red Mansion, before he had showed off his sword spirits, Gong Xiaotian was already convinced of his strength so he didn''t have to show off his sword spirits.

    Ji Yuan suddenly lifted his saintly sword and a quick burst of his sword energies exploded thunderously on the rocky cliff above him and when the debris had cleared, there was a small hole in it.

    Many of the cultivators were inhaling deeply and they could not believe their eyes; usually sword energies are pure profound energies that are cultivated from the inner spiritual sea and are much weaker than a profound force attack.

    It is because a profound force attack is a coalescent of the profound energies. Although it is shorter range but whenbined with a divine sword, the result can be extremely devastating. Many of the cultivators are power cultivators, capable of using powerful profound force as their profound arts.

    But for a sword cultivator that specializes in only sword energies, it may be useful against the weaker cultivators and is capable of longer range but most of the higher realm power cultivators will be able to shatter a sword energies into nothingness with ease.

    But what they were witnessing now was a physical sword energies that is on par with a profound force art.

    Normally the cliff will be able to absorb the impact of the sword energies.

    This spoke volumes of Ji Yuan''s profound strength.

    Actually this was Ji Yuan''s bluff. Although he was stronger than most of the cultivators here but had not recovered from his earlier battles yet.<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi was quietly observing Ji Yuan; she had seen his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon earlier in battle but she knows that this was actually not Ji Yuan''s strongest profound sword art. It was because she was aware that her Sword Clone was destroyed by Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    When her Sword Clone was triggered, she had actually spoken through her clone to Ji Yuan and she was in an actualbat with Ji Yuan through her astral projection.

    At that time Ji Yuan only had one sword spirit and only a saint-step divine sword. But now, he had one additional sword spirit and one more perfect harmony immortal-step divine sword.

    She really could not believe how swift Ji Yuan had advanced since theirst battle.

    Even though she seemed to have the upper hand in theirtest battle today but she knew that it was only because he was seriously wounded and was not in his best performance; it was because she had actually observed him while he fought with the five seventh rank profound armored spiders previously.

    Ji Yuanughed, "If you want the leadership from me then I''m afraid that you''ve got to fight me first. I am naturally opened to challenges."

    But none of the opposing cultivators, including Ximen Wudi had dared to move; it was because they could suddenly see Ji Yuan''s invisible sword intentions all around them.

    Those that could not see could see a suffocating pressure that was upon them.

    Ximen Wudi blurt out, "You''re a Sword Saint?!"

    Only a Sword Saint will be able to project their sword intentions in this manner.

    And Ji Yuan''s sword intentions were terrifying to the core.

    All the opposing cultivators could feel that if they have made the wrong move, they would be killed instantly by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan replied calmly, "So what if I''m a Sword Saint? So what if I''m not a Sword Saint?"

    "Haha. Please don''t mind us for asking. After all, we''re just concerned about our leader Gong Xiaotian only." Ximen Wudi exined but his tone was still cold.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had flickered his saintly sword and a burst of sword energies flew toward Ximen Wudi.

    Ximen Wudi was startled and he had quickly raised his divine sword to block it.

    Just when everyone thought that Ximen Wudi would be able to block the puny sword energies burst, he was sent flying backward in an explosive impact and the sword energies burst continued to explode through his body.

    He was dragged a good 30m away and he was gasping breathlessly with disbelief as he coughed out golden blood.

    Several vital energy points in his body were also shattered by the puny sword bursts.

    Then many of the cultivators were gasping with shock;

    "He uses his life essence for that attack¡­"

    "That is a life force energies attack? Is he crazy?"

    "No, he may have mastered the art of using his life force energies to reinforce his sword energies attack."

    Ji Yuan had decided to attack him to teach him a lesson or else these cultivators would think that he was only hot air.

    All of a sudden most of the opposing cultivators wereughing away and some were even condemning Ximen Wudi for being disrespectful to Ji Yuan.

    In the cultivation world, might is right.

    And Ji Yuan was able to demonstrate his strength in front of all of them.

    Ji Yuan said aloud, "So who else doubts my words?"

    There was deep silence all of a sudden from the opposing cultivators and many of the same opposing cultivators were hanging their heads low; although they covert Ji Yuan''s profound treasures but they did not have the guts to challenge him lest they would lose their lives.

    Whether Ji Yuan was saying the truth or not, was not important anymore.

    If he could kill Gong Xiaotian and the twenty cultivators who were all elite cultivators then they would be crazy to offend this ruthless character.

    Even Ximen Wudi was fearful now and he had hastily used his Escape Talisman as he thought that Ji Yuan was going to about to execute him in front of everyone.

    Half of the cultivators were now erupting into cheers for Ji Yuan, including Qin Shuang.

    Actually there were many cultivators here who were under the terror of Gong Xiaotian, Ximen Wudi and their gang, especially the female cultivators.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan found himself mobbed by many cultivators who were rushing forward to congratte him for taking charge of the Green Faction.

    Yun Chi sighed softly before she smiled at Ji Yuan, "The two of us are co-leaders. Why do they all think that you''re the leader instead of me? I am the vanguard leader while you are a good-for-nothing leader that needs everyone to protect you."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed weakly, unsure how to reply her.

    But all of a sudden he was being pulled away by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    Yun Chi shrugged her shoulders as she walked away.

    Ling Feiyue said to Ji Yuan with exasperation, "Ji Yuan! Please exin yourself! Why are you with her?"

    "Yes, why?"

    "Why is she holding your arms?"

    "You''ve better give us a good exnation or else."

    "Didn''t you swear by your soul sea to us earlier that you don''t like her?"

    "You say that she is ugly and cocky¡­"

    Ji Yuan solemnly told them, "Can''t you tell that I''m only toying with her? This is all part of my n."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan pretended to sigh deeply, "She is a powerful cultivator. I''m sure that Qianfeng has already told you all."

    Then he lowered his head to whisper softly, "Gong Xiaotian and all the cultivators are actually killed by me earlier. If it is not for my quick thinking, your lord won''t even be standing here now."

    All the maidens were gasping as they asked, "What happens?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before saying slowly, "It is like this¡­"

    "That despicable Gong Xiaotian and his gang have actually lured us to an ambush. Us refers to Yun Chi and I. Unluckily for them, I''ve sensed that something is amiss and reacted in a nick of time. As for why Maiden Yun Chi is sticking to me is because I''ve saved her life from them. These despicable beasts, they have almost vited Maiden Yun Chi. If it is not for me, she would be meat for these monsters."

    He conveniently left out the part where he and Yun Chi had almost drowned together plus many details. In this version, he is the hero.

    Fairy Anyang and Xiang Li both said at the same time in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "This is not what has happened! She is the one that has killed Gong Xiaotian!"

    But Ji Yuan ignored them as he continued to exin to the maidens.

    "But this Maiden Yun Chi is actually also quite scheming and dangerous. Therefore I''ve decided to toy with her feeling first."

    Feng Minyue quietly said, "Even if she is an enemy, you shouldn''t toy with a maiden''s feeling."

    Ji Yuan quickly exined with great righteousness, "Maybe you got me wrong. She is the one that is trying to toy with my feeling by pretending toe close to me. I''ve merely pretended to reciprocate her feelings to put her guard down."

    Then he pointed out further, "The two of us are just pretending to be close friends in front of these cultivators only. But only she knows and I know that we are not close to each other at all."

    Ling Feiyue held onto Ji Yuan''s hands gently, "My lord. I''m so sorry that I''ve wronged you!"

    "So that is why she is holding your arm just now." Bai Qianfeng gasped with enlightenment. "My lord, your Qianfeng is so petty and thought that you''ve lied to us."

    "Please forgive me as well." Yu Jingjing was apologetic all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not at all, not at all. Haha¡­"

    Little Princess and Shui Xisi were secretly exchanging nces; somehow the two of them were still not convinced¡­

    Fairy Anyang was whispering to Xiang Li in secret, "I got a feeling that our lord may escape tonight but tomorrow when Maiden Yun Chies looking for him, he will surely be a goner."

    Xiang Li answered weakly, "But Big Brother says we mustn''t let the maidens know that Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang or it will endanger them. We can only pray for the safety of Big Brother for now. Although Big Brother''s ns are very messy but I believe in him!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "He is just covering up the holes when he saw the holes. He doesn''t have any ns at all."

 Chapter 369 Youâ€™re All Wrong

    The next day the entire Green Faction had set off into desert again.

    And Yun Chi was leading the vanguard teams.

    Many of the cultivators were secretly anxious as they muttered among themselves;

    "Although her peerless beauty is acknowledged by all but women are infamous for theirck of direction¡­"

    "Although that is a sexist remark but you never know..."

    "Shall we ask Ji Yuan to lead us instead?"

    "She is leading us into the sand dunes? What if these sand dunes copse or if we are ambushed by the deste monsters?"

    Quite a few of the cultivators secretly informed Ji Yuan of their worries.

    "If we walk into a den of deste monsters in the thick sand dunes, our entire Green Faction will be wiped out if we cannot find a way out¡­"

    "We should choose a t terrain¡­"

    "Our divine sense may be blocked by the sand dunes¡­"

    But Ji Yuanughed and told them, "Maiden Yun Chi is an expert guide in the desert. Trust her."

    But secretly he was also anxious because Yun Chi was the Death God Mingwang and she may be totally unpredictable.

    What better way to kill him and the rest, was by leading them to their own dooms?

    She can fly, so naturally the ones that would perish will not be her.

    But he found himself saying to these cultivators, "Trust her, she knows what she is doing. Worsee to worse, we still have our Escape Talisman. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, he simply could not believe what he was saying.

    It was not just his life that was at stake but the maidens in his party as well.

    He quickly returned to his team but only found Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    "Where are the rest?" He asked curiously.

    "They''re discussing something and will be back soon." Yu Jingjing answered.

    Sure enough; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi had quickly appeared.

    Their moods were jovial when they had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan away from his conversations with Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It is only early in the morning and the three of you are already gossiping so merrily."

    Then heughed, "If you want to gossip,e and share with the four of us. Haha¡­"

    "My lord," Little Princess was smiling. "We just have a little discussion only and we are actually nning to tell you after we''ve done with it. Now we are going to share with you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "The three of you sounds so mysterious." He muttered.

    Yu Jingjing chuckled, "Sisters, why don''t you involve me in your discussion? I am so hurt!"

    Ling Feiyueughed, "We didn''t want to interrupt you with Ji Yuan, that''s all. Plus it isn''t something earthshaking."

    Yu Jingjing averted her eyes shyly as she smiled coyly, "I¡­am¡­not¡­"

    Shui Xisiughed as she hit Ji Yuan on his chest, "You will be pleased with our news for sure!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Stop beating around the bush and tell me already." He began to frown.<sub> </sub>

    Little Princess looked at Ling Feiyue, "You''re our lord elder consort. Why don''t we let you tell Ji Yuan instead?"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Then I shall not be too polite. Heehee¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, do you remember that we''ve met the Death God Mingwang here in this trial?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and was startled; did they discover Yun Chi''s identity already?!

    Ling Feiyue gigged, "Why are you looking so nervous? Tell you a piece of good news! After discussing, we think that it is unlikely that the Death God Mingwang will be in the same trial as us. If he is, then he will easily be the target of all the cultivators. The minute that he released his deste aura, all the cultivators will know that he is the enemy."

    "Moreover, if he kills everyone in his faction then he can''tplete his trial as well." Little Princess smiled.

    Shui Xisi chuckled as she further pointed out, "Therefore the Death God Mingwang has to quit this trial sooner orter. And he has probably quitted this trial already or else he will be just wasting his time here. That is why he has given our Sister Qianfeng the time to think over his condition."

    "But the true reason is that he is unable toplete the trial here." Ling Feiyue giggled. "Hence he has given Sister Qianfeng the time to think over."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You mean the one about restoring your deste strength?"

    Bai Qianfeng averted her eyes; the real condition is that she has to leave with the Death God Mingwang if she wants Ji Yuan to live.

    "So Ji Yuan, what do you think of our analysis? Are we brilliant or not?" Ling Feiyue giggled.

    Shui Xisi and Little Princess were also giving a hopeful nce at him.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he did not know what to say; he can''t tell them that the Death God Mingwang is right in their midst and is none other than Yun Chi.

    So he can only smile most bitterly, "It is a beautiful analysis. Finally I can set my mind toplete this trial in peace."

    When the maidens heard Ji Yuan, they were allughing jovially.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea, "Big Brother, why is that we can sense that your soul sea isn''t at peace?"

    Fairy Anyang sighed, "That is because he can''t tell them that Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang and she is in their midst now or they will panic."

    "But I don''t understand why the Death God Mingwang didn''t want to take out our Lord when he had the first opportunity?"

    p Xiang Li chuckled, "That is because Sister Qianfeng and Sister Sisi are very, very strong cultivators. Not to mention that Sister Qianfeng also has two seventh rank spirit pets too. If Yun Chi fights Big Brother headlong then she may not win. Therefore she is trying to separate Sister Qianfeng from us."</anda>

    Fairy Anyang nodded, "Right. This Qianfeng is an immortal goddess. She isn''t weak and moreover she has a celestial sword too."

    Xiang Li asked proudly, "Big Brother, am I right?"

    "Or it is because his Brother Xiao Muhan is now giving him the cold shoulder all of a sudden?" Fairy Anyang giggled. "So no more broke-back brothers.

    Ji Yuan began to inhale deep and he was sighing miserably, "I''ve been thinking the whole night. I was so close to banging Yun Chist night. I just can''t get the image of her body, especially the one between her legs off my mind. Why didn''t I bang herst night¡­"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang said with some sarcasm, "Our lord is thinking with his lower body again."

    "You''re wrong, my dear Anyang." Ji Yuan said righteously, "I am actually thinking of her lower body."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Then he gasped with an inspiration thought, "I must bang her for sure or else it won''t count as toying with her."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "May I remind you that she is your enemy and you may die in her bed anytime."

 Chapter 370 The Fallen Gods City (1)

    After two days of trekking in the hot desert sands, all the cultivators could not believe their luck; they did not even encounter a single deste monster.

    No casualties and no one have used their Escape Talisman for the past two days.

    And Maiden Yun Chi was suddenly being hailed as their living lucky mascot.

    One must know that the deste monsters on the fifth level are mostly sixth or seventh rank deste monsters.

    A seventh rank deste monster is mostly on par with a saint cultivator while a seventh rank profound deste monster is stronger than many saint cultivators that are added together.

    Under the cultivators'' present condition, even a seventh rank profound beast can take 10 of them. And if they were unlucky to encounter more than 10 seventh rank profound deste monsters, their entire faction may well be wiped off.

    And now the Fallen Gods City had been sighted in the distant horizon!

    Although there were eight rank deste monsters in this treacherous desert but the cultivators did not encounter any.

    Everyone was feeling lucky!

    The Green Faction had crossed the treacherous burning desert with little losses!

    Even Ji Yuan was somewhat surprised.

    He had been nerve racked for the past two days thinking that Yun Chi was going to kill him.

    And he had been thinking of banging Yun Chi for the past two days and, he did not seed too.

    He was suddenly thinking that it was weird for Yun Chi not to seduce him for the past two days and she had not been visiting him.

    This was something that was totally unexpected to him.

    And now he was missing her seduction.

    He had been waiting for her to ''attack'' him with her seduction but now all his preparations were in naught.

    This was pretty sad upsetting to him¡­

    He just could not get her off his mind nowadays¡­

    Fairy Anyang was whispering to Xiang Li, "Our lord doesn''t look so spirited these two days. Maybe he is too stressed about Yun Chi."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Indeed. Big Brother must be thinking hard on how he is going to protect everyone. He has a heavy responsibility on his shoulder."

    Fairy Anyang said, "Well, he is lucky that Yun Chi didn''t look for him for the past two days. Or else he doesn''t even know how he is going to die in front of his maidens."

    While Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were secretly whispering to each other, Ji Yuan was sighing regretfully to himself; where is Yun Chi¡­

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had gathered all the teams together to announce, "In front of us is the Fallen Gods City where the stone page will be found."

    Ji Yuan hurried in front as heughed, "Haha. So soon? Guess we''re the first one then? So let''s go in and toplete our trial."

    He surprised himself by his hasty attempts to speak to Yun Chi.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed that there were many solemn looks among the cultivators.

    "Erm, what is wrong?" He asked.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Great Hero Ji Yuan. You may not know this but it is better for us to camp for the night first and we shall set off in the next morning instead."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Isn''t it safer to camp inside the city?"

    Yun Chi exined pleasantly, "It is actually very dangerous inside the Fallen Gods City. And also the city is huge. Once you are inside the city, you can''t leave anymore unless you want to use the Escape Talisman."

    Then she winked at Ji Yuan, "Also once nightfall arrives, the city street will spawn eighth and ninth rank deste monsters."

    Ji Yuan was shocked by the revtion, "What?! Eighth and ninth rank deste monsters? What the heck? Are you kidding me?"<sub> </sub>

    Many of the cultivators were actually muttering and sighing;

    "It is the truth¡­"

    "We didn''t tell the first timers because we didn''t want to scare them off¡­"

    Even a great saint may not be able to defeat an eighth or ninth rank deste monster so easily; these monsters regenerate too fast and the profound animus of their profound strength can easily ward off most profound attacks.

    Ji Yuan had previously killed an epic metamorph eighth rank deste monster before but it was only because he had Xiang Li to thank for. Even his current Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was far inferior to the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that was affected by Xiang Li.

    Even Jiajia could do nothing much against that epic metamorph eight rank deste monster. It far exceeds even a normal epic ninth rank deste monster.

    Yun Chi further exined, "The city may looks small from afar but it is actually an infinity city once you''ve stepped inside. Once again, we have to find the stone page from within one of the infinity locations inside."

    <o>,m She paused for a while before adding, "Now this won''t be easy because the streets will be crawling with many high level deste monsters as well as the other cultivators from the other four factions."</o>

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "If this Fallen Gods City is infinity, how do we even find the stone page in the first ce?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "We don''t know if there is only one stone page or multiple stone pages inside the city. We only know that once the stone page has been found and the Fallen Gods Relic is obtained, the entire faction will be teleported out."

    Then she added with a wryly smile, "Or we will be forced to use our Escape Talisman if we are unable to collect the number 404. That is how I''ve failed this trial in thest round."

    Ji Yuan looked around as he counted the number of cultivators, "We have some two hundred cultivators now. Do you think this is enough toplete the trial?"

    Yun Chi rolled her golden eyes, "Hopefully."

    Xiao Muhan stroked his long beard as he turned to Ji Yuan to say, "Myst faction has some four hundred cultivators when we had reached the Fallen Gods City. Most of us are forced to use the Escape Talisman because we are unlucky to meet with a single ninth deste rank profound monster."

    Ji Yuan gulped as he stared at Xiao Muhan, "You sure are unlucky."

    Xiao Muhan stared coldly at him, "You sure are lucky."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly before he whispered to him, "Come on brother. Maiden Yun Chi isn''t the only pretty maiden here. Did you see Maiden Qin Shuang over there? She is also a most beautiful maiden."

    Xiao Muhan growled, "Then why don''t you woo her instead and leave Yun Chi to me?"

    Ji Yuan put his hand on Xiao Muhan''s shoulder, "You may be my brother but there are some things that cannot be shared."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "You''re the one that told me that Yun Chi isn''t your type and you don''t like her the least bit."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You can''t take my words seriously when I''m drunk, you know."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "You''re a golden celestial, will you even get drunk? And you''re not even drinking when you say that to me."

    "Brother." Ji Yuan said solemnly, "I was only testing if you really like Yun Chi, that''s all. Surely you aren''t that blind enough not to see that I like her from the poem that I''ve dedicated to her?"

    "Moreover¡­" he added with a soft chuckle. "You are not as handsome as me and you can''t force a maiden to love you."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan added with another soft chuckle, "Also, you have an ugly beard too. Haha."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

 Chapter 371 The Fallen Gods City (2)

    At night at the outskirt of the Fallen Gods City;

    Bai Qianfeng was sharing with Ji Yuan and the rest of the maidens in their party, "It is a good thing that the Death God Mingwang is restricted to the seventh rank cultivation realm in the Celestial Realm. Do you know that the Death God Mingwang is one of the three true deste gods in the Deste Realm?"

    "I''m only at the Ninth Realm Initial Immortal Realm, if it is tranted into your cultivation term. But the Death God Mingwang is a Great God, on the same level as the Great Goddess Alice. Meaning to say, he is at the Ninth Realm Upper Immortal Realm and is also a peaked immortal god. I''m afraid that even the Great Goddess Alice may pale inparison to him."

    "Hmph! Is that so?" Shui Xisi hummed coldly.

    She could not resist making an interruption after all, the Great Goddess Alice is her mother consort and she worships her mother.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled gently, not minding Shui Xisi; after all, she had already known of her background.

    "Can you imagine how strong is a peaked immortal cultivator?" Bai Qianfeng sighed softly. "Every stage disparity is almost double the disparity in profound strength. He can wield 8 times more profound strength than me."

    Each realm has 4 stages: initial, middle, upper and peak stage.

    "To fight him, I''ve to use my best profound art to be on equal footing with his profound strength. That is the disparity between us."

    Ji Yuan gulped, "Erm, you mean the Death God Mingwang is 64 times stronger in profound strength than me?"

    Bai Qianfeng slowly nodded.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; 64 times do not just mean profound strength alone but the speed of profound recovery is also 64 times faster¡­

    Yun Chi is this strong?!

    He knows that while her cultivation realm is restricted in the Celestial Realm but that is only partially; in theirst battle on the 4th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she had revealed to him that she was able to utilize her profound strength to the 9th level but it was only her profound arts that were restricted.

    Bai Qianfeng further exined, "You may not know this. Every realm and stage above the 7th level for the immortal cultivators is really tedious and difficult. You can actually count the number of great gods and goddesses in the Immortal Realm. As for peaked immortals, they are just a handful and you can literally count with your ten fingers."

    She paused to sigh softly, "The Dragon God Longdi, the Great Demon God, the Death God Mingwang, the Great Lord Xuan Yuan and the World Ruler Fuxi are just five of the peaked immortal gods from the Deste Immortals side."

    Then she shook her head with some regrets, "Sadly, the World Ruler Fuxi had long defected to the Pangu Immortals side and the Great Lord Xuan Yuan was killed by the Pangu Immortals. Without the Great Lord Xuan Yuan on our side, our defeat to the Pangu Immortals was evitable."

    Yu Jingjing asked curiously, "I thought that there are still the Dragon God Longdi, the Great Demon God and the Death God Mingwang? Howe they are still around and how did they arrive in the Celestial Realm?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly, "They are actually the true deste immortals of the Deste Realm. After the Great God Pangu exiled us to the Deste Realm, we are known as the Deste Immortals. But we are not the true denizens of the Deste Realm. As for the war between the Pangu Immortals, they have shown no interest in aiding us."

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "Just how strong is the Death God Mingwang? I really cannot imagine how strong the peaked immortals are."

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "He can kill a ninth rank epic beast easily. No wait, a ninth rank immortal ss beast easily."

    Everyone grows nk¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I''ve never heard of an immortal ss beast before."

    "Some ninth rank epic beasts are so powerful that they have evolved into an immortal ss monster and have their own domains." Bai Qianfeng exined.

    "I don''t believe." Ji Yuan said, "An epic ninth rank deste or a divine monster is already a divine existence. No way the Death God Mingwang can kill one so easily."

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "I don''t believe either. Until one day, my scouts have given me a visual report on a battle between the Death God Mingwang and the Sage Emperor Dragon Bahamut. In that battle, the Death God Mingwang appears to have an ''Extra Form'' and this enables him to win."

    "What extra form?" Everyone was asking curiously.

    "Before my scouts died, they had seen the spirit animus of the Death God Mingwang. He seems to have six extra wings and his spiritual level is overwhelming. That is when the transmission stops." Bai Qianfeng exins with a heavy sigh.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself; I''ve seen her sword wings¡­what the heck, she even has an extra form with six more wings?! This Maiden Yun Chi is now giving me a terrible big headache now¡­

    Yu Jingjing said nervously as she looked at Bai Qianfeng and Ji Yuan, "Then who can win the Death God Mingwang?"

    Little Princess turned to look mesmerizingly at Ji Yuan, "Maybe it is our lord. The Diviner Mo Ming did say that a Great Hero will appear and he will have two marks on his hands. Our lord here has two sword spirits on his hands. If he isn''t the one then who is? So he must be the one that can defeat the Death God Mingwang for sure."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Maybe¡­"

    "He is not. I think Lu Qingyun is the one that will be able to defeat the Death God Mingwang." Bai Qianfeng interrupted.

    When Bai Qianfeng saw Lu Qingyun for the very first time, she was quite startled. It was because there was a possibility that he may be the reincarnation of the Great Lord Xuan Yuan.

    But something else bothered her; Lu Qingyun was with Fan Yuqing and Fan Yuqing had given her a most uneasy feeling. She knew that she was one of the daughters of the Great God Pangu and she looked a lot more dangerous than she appears to be.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha¡­maybe¡­" Heughed weakly.

    "I''m going to take a little walk for a while." He suddenlyughed.

    Ling Feiyue solemnly said to Bai Qianfeng, "Sister Qianfeng, you shouldn''t hurt our lord''s ego. He must be feeling so upset now that he is now talking a walk."

    Bai Qianfeng had an apologetic look on her countenance, "I just want to remind him to be wary of the Death God Mingwang, that''s all¡­I didn''t expect that he will be hurt so easily."

    "Don''t worry, he will soon be fine." Shui Xisi chuckled. "He isn''t that petty."

    "Let our lord take a cool walk first." Little Princess sighed with a heartbreaking ache for Ji Yuan. "He must be feeling very stress that he has to confront the Death God Mingwang eventually."

    "I may not be as strong as him, if I were him." Yu Jingjing sighed.

    Feng Minyue nodded, "He is a good man and a responsible man."

    Ji Yuan had quickly moved around the makeshift campsite and he was searching everywhere for Yun Chi.

    "Where is co-leader Yun Chi?"

    "Brother Xiao Muhan, where is Yun Chi?"

    Xiao Muhan cursed him loudly before driving him away, "Go away! Do you think that I will help my love rival?!"

    "Co-leader Yun Chi? She is headed in that direction."

    "Haha, thanks!" Ji Yuan happily sped off in the direction that was shown to him.

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Big Brother, didn''t you hear what Sister Qianfeng has just said? Why are you looking for Yun Chi?"

    Fairy Anyang was also perplexed, "Erm, don''t get caught alone with Yun Chi or you won''t live to see the first light of dawn."

    No response¡­

    Fairy Anyang, "He isn''t even paying attention to us¡­"

    Xiang Li gasped all of a sudden, "Do you think that Yun Chi has put a love charm on our Big Brother?"

    Fairy Anyang muttered bitterly, "Does she even need to use a love charm on our lord?"

    "Yun Chi, here you are!" Ji Yuanughed when he had finally found Yun Chi standing on a ridge overlooking at the gates of the Fallen Gods City quietly.<sub> </sub>

    "Ji Yuan?" Yun Chi gasped with surprise when she saw him.

    But soon she was smiling.

    "Why are you here?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am looking everywhere for you. Haha."

    "Oh? For?" Yun Chi looked a little perplexed.

    Ji Yuan said, "You didn''t talk to me for the past two days! Why?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "Why? You miss me?"

    "Of course I miss you!" Ji Yuan said with great exasperation. "Do you know that for the past two days, these unsightly cultivators are looking at your butt from behind and at your perky mounds from afar. How outrageous!"

    Yun Chi giggled softly, "Are you sure that you are not the one instead of the others?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "You''re mine. So only I can admire you. If the others want to admire you then I shall turn them into eunuch. Haha."

    "Can you be serious?" Yun Chi asked, "Why are you looking for me?"

    "Dear Yun Chi." Ji Yuan solemnly said. "I''ve been missing your scents for the past two days."

    Yun Chiughed, "Is that all¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was holding her on her waist and was french kissing her, interrupting her.

    "Yun Chi, do you want to be my consort?" Ji Yuan muttered as he kissed her.

    "Um, no." Yun Chi muttered back.

    "I can''t take no for an answer." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    And his fingers had already moved into her short skirt. But he could not ce his fingers into her panties as a strong profound force prevented it.

    Next he tried to loosen her belt but again, her belt could not be loosened.

    So he put his fingers on her bare back and he was feeling her like a spider, molesting her mounds and also rubbing against her under her skirt.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Why are you so horny tonight?" Yun Chi gasped as she suddenly pushed him back. "Be civil!"

    Ji Yuan returned a sheepish look before he chuckled, "Why are you so soft and sensual to touch?"

    Yun Chi averted her eyes in hot flushes, "Surely you didn''te here just to tell me this?"

    "Indeed I''vee here to tell you only this." Ji Yuanughed.

    And he proceeded to kiss her passionately again.

    He had forced Yun Chi to lean against the walls of the cliff.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?" Yun Chi gasped. "I''m giving you onest warning to back off."

    Fairy Anyang and Xiang Li were immediately fearful for Ji Yuan''s life.

    "What is our lord doing? She is already giving him onest warning." Fairy Anyang was gasping inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Xiang Li said excitingly, "This is actually part of Big Brother''s n to screw her and to toy with her feelings!"

    "I don''t see it having a slim chance of seeding now." Fairy Anyang muttered.

    Ji Yuan ignored Yun Chi''s warning as he pressed onto her to kiss her passionately.

    He had gripped Yun Chi''s shoulders hard as he mustered all his charms to break down her defenses.

    Yun Chi was moaning under his relentless passionate kisses.

    And finally, Ji Yuan could feel her resolve weakening.

    Suddenly her belt was loosened and Ji Yuan immediately pulled down her panties.

    At the same time he was stripping her robe off and pulling off her sexy lingerie from her.

    Yun Chi was gasping breathlessly as she stared at Ji Yuan''s naked body and his manhood.

    Before she could react further, Ji Yuan had grabbed her butt to put her long slender leg around his waist.

    Ji Yuan was now banging Yun Chi and he was fingering all over her porcin body and sacred areas.

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang could not believe their eyes and they were staring until their eyes popped out.

    Fairy Anyang stammered, "He is¡­banging¡­Yun Chi¡­"

    Xiang Li was also stunned, "Big Brother is really toying with her now¡­"

    They were even more startled when they saw that Yun Chi was still a chaste maiden¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered with shock, "He has just banged the Death God Mingwang¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    After Ji Yuan had left to take his walk, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were left speechless for a while.

    It was because Ji Yuan had identally dropped a translucent grey panties on the ground as he left absent-mindedly.

    The grey panties had dropped off from Ji Yuan''s sleeves when he had left in a hurry.

    Ling Feiyue was the first to react as she looked at everyone, "Whose exquisite panties in this, this time?"

    All the other maidens replied, "Not mine!"

    "You can all be honest about this. I promise I won''t be upset." Ling Feiyue said firmly.

    "Not mine! How can this be mine?" Everyone was protesting at the same time.

 Chapter 372 The Fallen Gods City (3)

    For many hours, Ji Yuan and Yun Chi continued to make love madly.

    Ji Yuan was like a wild beast as he released the profound effects of the five masculine profound pills that he had been suppressing for so long.

    Although he was rich now due to the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but he was quite cheapskate; he did not want to waste any of the masculine profound pills that he had taken and therefore did not purge it out of his inner cultivation sea.

    Yun Chi could not believe what she was doing; she had literally fallen under Ji Yuan''s persistent charm and could not keep his hands off her. And she was actually not upset.

    If it was the others, they would long be dead.

    And tonight, she had actually lost her chastity to her enemy¡­

    For the very first time, she was feeling quite lost.

    She was actually standing on the ridge overlooking the Fallen Gods City and was not thinking of the stratagem for tomorrow to ovee the final trial but instead, she was thinking of the past several days event that was with Ji Yuan.

    She was gathering her confused thoughts together¡­

    She had approached Ji Yuan with her true appearance because she actually had an ulterior motive and could not use her usual guise of the Death God Mingwang.

    She was never interested in him because he was just another handsome face that she had encountered in her countless years of existence.

    To her, Ji Yuan is like a candle that will extinguish anytime while she is a true immortal, a true god that will never age or die.

    But Ji Yuan intrigued her; he was like a rising immortal me and he had ovee the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion. Unless something happens to him or his willpower falter, he would almost be certain to ascend as an immortal in the future.

    That was not what confused her the most; she kept refreshing and reying the scene when she was struggling underwater with Ji Yuan. At that time, she was grabbed by him and she was also panicky grabbing him.

    That the Death God Mingwang would actually be afraid of water. This is so embarrassing and awkward to her face¡­

    What she found amusing and speechless was, Ji Yuan was even more afraid of water than her¡­

    The so call ''Great Hero'' is actually afraid of water¡­

    Although she was afraid of water, she was still calm and would escape from the underwater currents in no time but of all time, Ji Yuan had to grab her boobs¡­

    She had almost released her deste aura at that time to kill Ji Yuan instantly when he was in his most vulnerable position.

    But somehow her tranquil mind kept her from doing so and she had continued to pretend her act to rely on her exhausted righteous force.

    But that was her greatest mistake.

    She was too calm in her thousands of years to do anything irrational.

    And she ended up being overwhelmed by her fear of water and she had a sudden fit; this caused her to nk out temporary.

    When she had opened her eyes, Ji Yuan was holding onto her panties and he was about to do something funny to her.

    She was so shocked and startled¡­

    What happened next was even more unexpected, they wereter exchanging passionate kisses in the chasm.

    How can she possibly lost her rational?

    She is the notorious God of Death, one of the three mightiest rulers in the Deste Realm and he is a mere celestial.

    Ji Yuan seemed to be everywhere in her mind even before the ident in the chasm happened¡­

    She was identally offended when he called her ugly and cocky¡­

    At that time, she wanted to whack him until she broke his back and he had to crawl under her skirt to beg her for mercy.

    But she cannot forget the poem that he had written for her; she had taken out the painting with the poem on more than ten asions just to recite his poem for her.

    As for her portrait inside the painting, she was actually uninterested. It is because that maiden inside the painting is herself. Why should she be interested in herself?

    But of course, all the male cultivators would argue otherwise with her as they were more interested in her portrait than Ji Yuan''s poem.

    But she was seeing it differently.

    That night, Ji Yuan had actually won thepetition in her heart but she just did not want see his triumphant detestable grin so she did not dere him as the winner.

    And for the past two days and tonight, she just could not shake Ji Yuan off her mind. It was like his pervasive image was constantly everywhere.

    That was why she did not want to talk to Ji Yuan for the past couple of days as she hoped that she would regain her rational back soon and be the ruthless Death God Mingwang again.

    But Ji Yuan''s haunting words in the chasm kept floating into her head;

    "I hope that you will restraint yourself from killing unnecessary. It isn''t right to kill recklessly. You have me now. Let me do the killing instead. I don''t want your hands to be tainted with blood¡­"

    <But of course Yun Chi did not know that Ji Yuan was only saying this to protect himself and he was actually thinking; don''t kill me.>

    Ji Yuan had also said this to her and it moved her heart, "I swear by my soul sea that I will love Maiden Yun Chi forever and to take her as my consort."

    So when Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared, she was gasping with surprise because she was also secretly pleased to see him.

    But he soon gets touchy and she had politely warned him off.

    But he was too persistent.

    And her defenses broke¡­

    She simply could not believe what she was doing with Ji Yuan now.<sub> </sub>

    She had literally surrendered her bodypletely to him and allowed him to be dominant over her, forcing her to do his sick acts.

    And she was actually a willing party¡­

    "Ji Yuan, can you promise me something?" Yun Chi had suddenly said to him.

    "Haha. Just one thing? Even a million things I will promise to do it for you." Ji Yuan said while fondling her breasts at the same time.

    Yun Chi smiled with a flushed look, "That is too frivolous. Men can''t keep their promises."

    "Alright then." Ji Yuan said firmly. "I will do three things for you then. As long as it isn''t against my martial honor, I will do it for you."

    "Alright then." Yun Chi chuckled softly as she pointed at the moon, "Can you get me the moon? This isn''t against your martial honor, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I need to add one more condition. You can''t ask for the moon or the sun, or things that I cannot possible do." He added weakly.

    Yun Chi chuckled, "Men¡­are some."

    But she eased her smiles all of a sudden, "I was only teasing you. Promise me that you will love me forever even if we are to be enemies."

    Ji Yuanughed, "How can we be enemies?"

    But secretly he was jolted; he had totally forgotten that she was the Death God Mingwang and his mind was only filled with Yun Chi for the past two days.

    Xiang Li was giggling to Fairy Anyang in secret in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Sister-consort, Big Brother is now executing his n of ying out Maiden Yun Chi very well."

    Fairy Anyang was muttering weakly, "How is it even possible for him to bang Yun Chi in the first ce¡­his actions in the past two days tell me he doesn''t even have a n at all¡­"

    "Well, have you forgotten that Big Brother is an aspiring actor? He manages to hide it so well from us!" Xiang Li giggled. "And he ns this surprise for us tonight."

    Fairy Anyang said weakly, "You seem to be enjoying yourself immensely earlier¡­"

    Yun Chi suddenly got up as she pulled her short robe over herself, "It is almost dawn. We should go now. You should save some strength for tomorrow''s trial."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am not tired."

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "You should take a short rest first. Tomorrow trial will be very difficult and it will be something that willpletely blow away your mind."

    Ji Yuan had a look of satisfaction on his face, "Yun Chi, you''re very beautiful."

    Yun Chi averted her face quickly because she was flushing but she said coolly, "As for all your impurities inside my body, I will purge it all. It is best that we do not mention what has happened tonight or even remember it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    No!!! His billions of little Ji Yuan are all going to be killed soon¡­

    That was a huge blow to him¡­

    Yun Chi added, "After this trial or the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, we will probably not meet again. You will return to your celestial fraternity and I will return to my celestial fraternity."

    That was because she will be assuming her Death God Mingwang identity again.

    Ji Yuan was stunned;

    But he knew that she was lying because she will be returning to the Deste Celestial Fraternity as the Death God Mingwang. She is never from the other celestial fraternities in the first ce.

    Yun Chi quietly said, "You can just treat everything as a dream."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Maybe not¡­"

    But he was trembling all over.

    He simply cannot ept that this is only a one night stand!

    He is not a loose or flirtatious cultivator!

    Yun Chi was quietly looking at the imposing walls of the Fallen Gods City that were spreading for hundreds of miles or even thousands of miles long as she muttered silently to herself; can she bear to kill Ji Yuan now? Or will she fall like the fallen gods?"

    Ji Yuan in the meantime was looking a little panicky as he checked his clothing; he seemed to have lost Yun Chi''s grey panties! What if someone picks it up and decides to do something funny to it. Won''t this be the same as greening him?!

    That was Yun Chi''s betrothed gift to him and he had lost it¡­

    Or rather this was her first gift to him but he was treating it as her token of love for him.

    But to Yun Chi, it was just her discarded item.

    For the past 2 days, he had been secretly holding it while thinking of Yun Chi and regretting of his actions with her; why didn''t he bang her that night. That was like his greatest mistake and he had been thinking constantly for the past two days.

    When the maidens were discussing how dangerous and formidable the Death God Mingwang was, he was not paying scant attention. His entire mind was filled with the images of Yun Chi when they were in the chasm that very night¡­

 Chapter 373 Into The Fallen Gods City (1)

    When Ji Yuan returned to his own campsite, he was carrying a brooding look on him.

    This is only a one night stand?!

    His ego was bruised very badly and badly shaken.

    "Ji Yuan, you''re back. Can you exin about this grey panties!" Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi said at the same time.

    Little Princess took a look at Shui Xisi, "You im to have nothing to do with him, why are you so excited for?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "I am erm¡­only¡­trying to help you all to punish an unfaithful rogue like him."

    Ji Yuan suddenly had a startled smile on his face as he rushed forward to pick the grey panties from Ling Feiyue, "Thank you, this is mine."

    "This is yours?! You''ve got a fetish or what? This is obviously a maiden''s panties!" All the maidens gasped at almost the same time with great disbelief.

    Then Ji Yuan muttered almost absent-minded, "It is all over now. I''m doomed now."

    With a great sigh, he began to walk away with great sorrow.

    All the maidens were startled for they had never seen Ji Yuan in this manner before.

    Usually a man will be like this if they have suffered a crushing defeat by their cultivation opponents and have lost everything.

    And now, Ji Yuan was disying such a symptom.

    Yu Jingjing slowly said as she watched Ji Yuan disappeared into the darkness, "What happens to Ji Yuan? He seems very lost from beginning until now¡­"

    "He even ims that this panties is his. He didn''t even deny it this time." Ling Feiyue was in disbelief.

    Little Princess gasped all of a sudden, "He had that exact same look before. I remember it now?"

    All the rest of the maidens: ???

    "300 years ago when I''ve met him for the very first time, he was like this too¡­"

    The other maidens were all gasping; these past few days together they had all been sharing gossips about Ji Yuan''s past.

    So they all knew that Ji Yuan had a sad breakup in the past.

    Yu Jingjing suddenly gasped, "You know sisters. My sect had treated many cultivators in the past. When they have received a major setback or under great pressure, they will also be like this."

    Ling Feiyue was gasping too, "I''ve heard of this as well. They may even develop a fetish like Ji Yuan is having now."

    Little Princess was nodding as well, "I too have heard of this symptom. The pressure of the Death God Mingwang is affecting him too much."

    Bai Qianfeng sighed with woeful eyes, "We all know that Ji Yuan doesn''t like to be green. He must be in this condition because of me¡­"

    "Yes." Feng Minyue nodded, "I''ve already noticed that something is already amiss that day when the Death God Mingwang had appeared and was looking at Sister Qianfeng with a strange look. Ji Yuan must have already sensed something is wrong and that is the start of his depression."

    Shui Xisi sighed, "We really shouldn''t have mentioned the Death God Mingwang in front of him earlier¡­"

    "Everyone has their own fears. The Death God Mingwang is simply too strong." Bai Qianfeng said weakly. "That is why Ji Yuan is like this."

    Shui Xisi muttered, "So he is not having an affair?"

    Ling Feiyue said solemnly, "Obviously he isn''t. You will know him one day soon. Do you really think that he has the mood to have an affair with such a depressing mood?"

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "At first I''ve suspected it may be that Maiden Yun Chi."

    Little Princess shook her head, "Trust me. It won''t be Yun Chi. She is too lofty and sure of herself. Even if you give Ji Yuan a million years, he is incapable of even seeding in wooing her. I can tell that this Yun Chi is not someone who can be easily touched."

    "How do you know?" Shui Xisi asked.

    "From the way she confronted death in a cold manner." Little Princess said. "I''ve been observing her since the very start. Do you know that she can even smile when people are killed in front of her?"

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "I agree as well. Moreover, that Maiden Yun Chi is constantly surrounded by Xiao Muhan and so many men for the past two days. And our lord Ji Yuan is also by our side. So we can rule her out."

    "So we can safely say that Ji Yuan is now suffering from a great depression. What shall we do to help him?" Yu Jingjing asked.

    Ling Feiyue sighed, "Never mention the name of the Death God Mingwang in his presence for the time being, unless it is absolutely necessary."

    Yu Jingjing nodded weakly, "I wish I was able to pay more attention to him in the past couple of days."

    "It isn''t your fault. Men are great in hiding their emotions until it is toote. We''ve all missed it as well." Little Princess sighed.

    -

    -

    -

    The next day, all the maidens pretended that nothing had happenedst night and instead, they were all trying to be even nicer to Ji Yuan so as tofort him, hoping to lift him up of his depression.

    The Green Faction was now passing through the imposing gates of the Fallen Gods City.

    By the early morning, Ji Yuan had more or less recovered from his depression as he watched Yun Chi''s from afar.

    Seeing her again, aroused his spirits again.<sub> </sub>

    Especially when she said to all the cultivators, "We shall all move as a single group."

    Ji Yuan stared in awe of the imposing gates that stood hundreds of meters tall and was stunned.

    Even the entrance was a good hundred meters wide.

    Ji Yuan felt like he was like a tiny ant even in the busiest trading city of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Half of the cultivators were also first timers and they were all gasping with astonishment.

    Yun Chi exined quickly, "There are actually more than one gates inside. Depending on which direction the factions areing from in the Greed Ind, they will be at the different gates. So we probably won''t be sharing the same gate. Moreover I''ve checked the vicinity and have found no sight of any other cultivators."

    After she had said that, they had entered through the huge gate that was actually a towering shimmering portal.

    The interiors of the Fallen Gods Citypletely overwhelmed Ji Yuan and many of the first time cultivators as they slowly emerged from the shimmering portal into a tform that was surrounded by a shimmering dark invisible wall.

    They were standing on a tform on top of a pyramid that was around 30m in height. While this was high enough but they were surrounded by thousands of concrete buildings that were hundreds of meters tall.

    And these concrete buildings were hundreds of meters wide as well and the city streets below were 40m wide.

    It was extremely orderly except that the concrete buildings were in a bad state with broken structures and a bad state of disrepair.

    Many of the cultivators had never seen such imposing buildings and it was as though only the gods can build such a thing.

    But seeing is believing since it really exists and the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth actually descended from the Immortal Realm.

    But this was not the most shocking thing that caught their eyes.

    Hundreds of gigantic high level deste monsters were walking on the streets below or flying above them.

    Many of the cultivators were gasping with shock;

    "Seventh rank deste monsters¡­"

    "Eighth rank deste monsters¡­"

    "Ninth rank deste monsters¡­"

    "Even epic seventh, eighth, ninth deste monsters¡­"

    "Is that an immortal ss deste monster over there?!"

    Yun Chi charmingly smiled to all the cultivators, "Wee to Fallen Gods City, Greed Ind most forbidden ce."

    Even for Ji Yuan, he was stunned silly as he turned to stare at Xiao Muhan. "What the heck?! Why didn''t you tell me this ce is so freaking dangerous?!"

    Xiao Muhan stroked his long beard as he coolly replied, "This is an S Rank Trial. Surely it is within your expectations."

    Then he added wryly, "I was tricked by the cultivators who had exited Greed Ind with their Escape Talisman to enter the Red Mansion. Why do you think I am here with all of you now?"

    Many of the cultivators presented were actually tricked into entering the Red Mansion by the cultivators that had previously entered the Red Mansion who had described to them many fantastic profound treasures inside and that the real trial was actually inside the Red Mansion.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly recalled seeing hundreds of cultivators that were meditating outside the trial and yet none of them was willing to offer him any advice or even talk to him.

    The cultivators in the Red Mansion that had experienced the trial of the Greed Ind know how hard it is toplete the trial. Therefore they need a lot of cannon fodders.

    If these cultivators tell anyone that has not been to Greed Ind that there are ninth rank deste monsters, even eighth rank deste monsters, many of the cultivators will actually give up on this trial.

    No one wants to take a risk of fighting a beyond divinity deste monster.

    Moreover there were thousands of them all over the city.

    Many of the cultivators were sighing and some cultivators were even thinking of using the Escape Talisman immediately.

    The profound skills on the ck and red walls were actually there to entice the cultivators to stay while hoodwinking them the true nature of the trial.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Greed Ind¡­Fallen Gods City¡­It''s no wonder why we are given 3 Escape Talisman to use¡­So we are supposed to trick one another toe to Greed Ind? Why all these trouble?"

    Bai Qianfeng answered him, "It is not only that. It is to entice the cultivators into thinking that there are even miracle profound arts on Greed Ind too so they won''t quit the trial."

    Xiao Muhan nodded, "Indeed there are many wondrous profound treasures here. There are even miracle spirit herbs here for the lucky cultivators."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he said to the cultivators, "Well¡­since we''re already here, we ought to take the trial. I see there are also many low level deste monsters around as well. We just be careful and creep around like ants so that we won''t attract the attention of these high level deste monsters."

    Then he added, "You''re all the sons and daughters of the heavens. Surely you aren''t afraid to take a challenge am I right?"

    Ji Yuan didn''t need to say this. Most of the cultivators actually will not quit the trial even though they are afraid; they have already made it so far to quit halfway.

    But Ji Yuan''s words were assuring and had re-ignited their courage.

    Yes! They are all the sons and daughters of the heavens!

    But all of a sudden their morale plummets when Ji Yuan sarcastically added. "Remember to protect me. I''m Number 404."

    Ji Yuan is their strongest cultivator here, if not one of the strongest cultivators and they found itudable that they have to protect him.

 Chapter 374 Into The Fallen Gods City (2)

    Yun Chi said to Ji Yuan in front of all the cultivators, "Shall we let co-leader Ji Yuan take charge of our faction? After all, he is probably the strongest cultivator in our faction even though he is also Number 404. I trust his experience to lead us or else he won''t be able to have such a high aplishment in his cultivation."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed. "If Maiden Yun Chi says so."

    He was delighted all of a sudden; that means that he can order Yun Chi to walk together with him.

    The ball is now in his court!

    His eyes were quietly looking at her butt and her bosoms; he was imagining her naked self and the wonderful experience that he had with herst night. Although they had made love for many hours but to Ji Yuan, it was like only a few minutes.

    And it was over before he knew it.

    Xiao Muhan was also looking at Yun Chi''s butt and bosoms when all of a sudden he had felt Ji Yuan''s cold stare upon him.

    The two of them were suddenly staring coldly at each other.

    Ji Yuan was saying silently to Xiao Muhan; What are you looking at? Back off! She is my woman!

    And Xiao Muhan was saying silently to Ji Yuan; You ugly beardless fraggot! She is my woman! You don''t stand a chance against me! I don''t know how you can suddenly be a great saint but when I''m already a saint, you''re just a lowly golden supremacy that still needs my protection!

    And the two of them said silently together; Pui!

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiao Muhan before he smiled to Yun Chi before finally turned to say to all the cultivators, "Well, I will like to ask if anyone know what the stone page looks like or have any clues to where it is most likely to be located?"

    There was a long silence.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to look at Yun Chi and Xiao Muhan, "Erm, what about the two of you? I know that you are not the first timers."

    Xiao Muhan shook his head, "I didn''t even get to smell the ass of the stone page. So don''t ask me what it looks like."

    Yun Chi smiled charmingly, "I didn''t find the stone page as I''ve given up halfway. Some of these cultivators may have seen it but they won''t admit it because this will mean giving up their advantage and they will even be in the center of attraction."

    Ji Yuan frowned; Yun Chi is actually right.

    "But it will be apanied by a ck stele next to it and you won''t miss it." Yun Chiughed softly.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; she sounds as if she has actually seen it but is also denying it¡­

    "You know, there are hundreds of floors in each of the building here. How the heck are we going to find the stone page? Are we going to search floor by floor? These buildings are like mini mountains here." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Then he added, "I''m not going up to each of the floor even if I''m Number 404."

    He pointed at a faraway building that was toppled over, "What if the building topples over while I am inside. These buildings seem to be made of stone celestiums and these things weighted hundreds of tons."

    Many of the cultivators quickly assured to Ji Yuan, "Great Hero Ji Yuan, don''t worry. The stone page will always be at the ground floor so there is no need for us to search floor by floor."

    <o>,m Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; they''ve obviously seen what the stone page looks like or else how did they know it will be on the ground floor?</o>

    "Alright." He weakly muttered. "Let''s move on."

    As he slowly walked down the pyramid steps, his golden eyes were secretly on Yun Chi''s swaying hips.

    There is no way he can ept a one night stand.

    He is not a loose man at all.

    He has to make Yun Chi his!

    Yun Chi did not say much as she followed Ji Yuan but she maintained some distance away from Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were expecting Yun Chi to say something out of the blue to ridicule Ji Yuan but that did not happen and they thought it was actually very strange.

    Or is she nning some plots against Ji Yuan?

    And that is why she has suggested for Ji Yuan to lead the Green Faction?

    Because Ji Yuan is new to this trial and he may be an unwilling scapegoat for Yun Chi.<sub> </sub>

    They have to think of this because the celestial fraternities of the cultivators are treacherous and full of backstabbing wiles for the precious cultivation resources.

    The entire Green Faction was soon at the base of the pyramid as they stepped out of the invisible dark animus that was surrounding the pyramid.

    Outside this invisible dark animus, they would be stepping out of the safe zone.

    Ji Yuan was horrified when he could not step back into the shimmering dark animus again as it be a wall of force instantly when he reversed himself.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?" Ling Feiyue asked weakly.

    "He is chickening out." Xiao Muhan coolly said.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''m just testing if I can run back to the safe zone just in case."

    Many of the cultivators were quietly cursing Ji Yuan for beingme.

    But actually Ji Yuan had answered the most important question that was in their minds; can they actually run back to the safe zone without being forced to use the Escape Talisman.

    As soon as the cultivators had stepped out of the safe zone, their divine sense could pick up all kinds of deadly profound signatures.

    The shimmering dark animus around the pyramid was actually acting as a shield against their profound divine sense, limiting their range.

    And now when they were outside, the cultivators were able to use their divine sense.

    Almost as soon as Ji Yuan had restored his divine sense, he quickly shouted to all the cultivators. "Quickly hide in the buildings!"

    It was because he could sense the powerful presence of a high level deste monster approaching in their way.

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi who all had sharp divine sense as well were all shouting the same, "Listen to Ji Yuan! Quickly hide! Mask your profound aura!"

    Sure enough.

    A dark behemoth had suddenly walked their way.

    Although this dark behemoth was extremely huge and bulky but no sounds were being made by its heavy footing; its powerful profound aura nullified all the sounds under its heavy weight.

    It was an epic ninth rank deste monster which the cultivators had never seen before; it had a giant head that was like a bull, horns like the dragon, its iron-dded body had hundreds of dark tentacles and the end of its horned tail had an eye that was searching for preys.

    One look and everyone knows that this dark behemoth was extremely powerful.

    Yun Chi whispered to Ji Yuan, "This is the God Emperor Megalodon Gorgon. All its tentacles are able to attack at the same time and have a range of 100m."

    Ji Yuan was startled. The tentacles were about 10m long and yet it can attack to a range of 100m?

    And there were hundreds of tentacles on its body.

    Many of the cultivators had broken into cold sweat at the sight of this monster; this is a beyond divinity monster and it can easily wipe out everyone without even being affected by their profound attacks.

    To put it simple; unless they have a superior divine sword, none of their profound attacks will work on this monster.

    The profound animus of this monster is so strong that it can create an inertia protection around it.

    No matter how powerful a cultivator is or their profound arts are, without a superior divine sword, they''re not going to prate through to the inertia barrier that is around the God Emperor Megalodon Gorgon.

    If a cultivator is capable of 1000 damage and a heaven-step divine sword is able to project only 5% of its damage then this monster is going to take only 50 damage.

    A saint-step divine sword on the other hand is powerful enough to ignore the profound defense of most deste monsters or reducing a lot of its profound defense to inflict maximum damage of 1000.

    The difference is 20 times as much.

    All the cultivators were looking at Ji Yuan now because only he had both an immortal-step and a saint-step divine sword.

    Ji Yuan knew what they were all thinking and he was wishing that he had never show off his superior divine swords now.

    He could only curse them silently; don''t look at me. Look at Yun Chi. She maybe can kill this monster but not me.

    Luckily for them, the God Emperor Megalodon Gorgon soon walked past them and then they noticed that there were actually 20 other seventh rank profound Megalodon Gorgon and 2 epic seventh rank Megalodon Gordon behind it.

 Chapter 375 Into The Fallen Gods City (3)

    Ji Yuan began to say to all the cultivators, "Since I am the faction leader, I expect everyone to listen to my instruction. Only move when I say move."

    A cultivatorughed coldly, "Then if you ask us to die then we have to die?"

    Many of the cultivators were nodding and agreeing as well. "That''s right. Even though he is the leader but what if he asks us to surrender all the profound treasures that we''ve found to him? That won''t do at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No one is allowed to pick any spirit herbs without my permission or seek any profound treasures without my knowledge." Ji Yuan barked impolitely.

    With that he said loudly, "Follow me to cross to the next street."

    Many of the cultivators muttered unhappily as they began to follow behind Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue whispered to Ji Yuan, "My lord, you''re really impolite to these cultivators. Many of them are the young masters and mistresses of their celestial ns. They''re not used to taking orders from anyone. If you''re not my lord, I won''t be taking any orders from you either."

    "Same here." Little Princess giggled softly. "But the ugly looks on them after they had heard our lord delights me."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "This is for their own good. Whether they want to listen or not, it is up to them. But I don''t want them to endanger the rest, especially my party."

    Yun Chi who was walking near to Ji Yuan had overheard him

    She knew that Ji Yuan was not referring to her as she was not in the party.

    But all of a sudden she was unsure suddenly because Ji Yuan had suddenly stolen a nce at her as though he was indicating to her that she was also part of his party.

    Ji Yuan grinned when he saw that Yun Chi was taking a nce in his way.

    Yun Chi quickly averted her eyes and she was suddenly talking to Xiao Muhan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But all of a sudden many of the cultivators were gasping with great delight when they saw dozens of spirit nts glowing with a soft light on the balcony of a mighty building.

    The spirit nts were on the 10th floor and this was actually an easy feat for many of the cultivators since many of them were saint cultivators that can climb almost vertically with their lighting profound art.

    The same cultivator that had said to Ji Yuan earlier, then if you ask us to die then we have to die, had immediately shed forward and he was quickly apanied by a dozen other cultivators!

    <o>,m It was because these spirit herbs are the Aloe Mystic Herbs, a super rare celestial herb that can be used as reagents for the forging of divine weapons. As the thousands of years go by, the once plentiful Mystic Herbs have be increasing difficult to find and it can only be found in the greatest depth below the deste mists.</o>

    And the price for divine swords are extremely getting more and more exaggerated each year until only the richer celestial ns are able to afford one.

    Many of the celestial ns did not have a new divine weapon for generations and it was mostly inherited from their patriarchs.

    And most celestial ns will be happy even with a half-step mortal divine weapon.

    Looking at the profound animus of these Aloe Mystic Herbs, many of the cultivators know that they were probably thousands of years old and even a heaven-step divine sword may be obtainable as a result.

    Therefore more than dozen cultivators began to ignore Ji Yuan as they made a mad rush to climb to the 10th floor.

    Ling Feiyue shouted after them, "Did you not hear what Ji Yuan has said to you?!"

    But probably because Ling Feiyue''s voice has always been very soft and gentle, it was like a whispering wind in their ears.

    Although Ling Feiyue''s voice was soft to the ears but it was clear and audible because of the depth of her profound strength. But these cultivators had all chosen to ignore her.

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "Ignore them and let''s go."<sub> </sub>

    And he had walked off in the other direction.

    Although many of the cultivators did not rush forward for the Aloe Mystic Herbs that were on top of the buildings but they also did not make any attempt to follow Ji Yuan. It was because they were still struggling with their inner heart demons; they were slightlyte in their reactions and may not be able to even pull one stalk of the Aloe Mystic Herbs. At the same time, they were unwilling to leave with Ji Yuan because the Aloe Mystic Herbs were the object of their desire to have.

    Many of them were cursing Ji Yuan; even though he looks like a wealthy cultivator but no one will give up an opportunity to obtain an Aloe Mystic Herb that is several thousands of years old. It can be traded for other fabulous treasures and even a divine sword!

    There were also many cultivators that were shaking their heads and were secretly praising Ji Yuan for his high state of divinity, able to disdain the desires of the heart and to fully focus on his cultivation. That was why Ji Yuan is a peaked great saint and had so many fabulous profound treasures.

    Ji Yuan was actually sighing as he stole another look at the bosoms and butt of Yun Chi; I must have her. In my dictionary, there is no one night stand.

    All of a sudden hundreds of sharp tentacles had burst out from the various holes of the building and almost instantly half of the cultivators were wiped out as their fleshes deteriorate with terrifying speed.

    The other half of the cultivators all had terrified looks on them and one of the cultivators was even screaming, "Help, help! Please help!"

    These cultivators were the stronger ones and their profound auras were able to shield them from the degenerating aura that had suddenly appeared.

    However all their attempts to free themselves were in vain as a gigantic ck slime like mouth had appeared at the bottom of the building and its jaws were wide-opened to receive any cultivators that would drop into its mouth.

    The divine senses of the cultivators were all ringing rm bells.

    8th rank epic monster!

    And more than a dozen profound animus of the 8th rank profound deste monsters could also be sensed by all the cultivators!

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "This is¡­this is¡­"

    A cultivator stammered, "Are we going to help them? The survivors can''tst long for sure¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already walked away with a heavy sigh, "They''ve all doomed themselves already. Let''s go."

    A cultivator stepped forward to stop Ji Yuan, "I am an orthodox cultivator. If we don''t attempt to help them and just walk away then is there any difference between me and a selfish unorthodox cultivator? At least we should all attack to distract the deste monsters to give them a fighting chance! You im to be a Great Hero and yet your actions are deplorable!"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately; it was Yun Chi that had kept calling him Great Hero this and that. He didn''t im to be one¡­

    But because this cultivator had a righteous heart, Ji Yuan replied politely. "What for? So that more of us will get the attention of these deste monsters and die? Surely you have sensed the profound aura of an 8th rank epic monster, am I right? And I can tell you, it has not even appeared yet. Let them use their Escape Talisman if they are unable to win."

    As he had said that, another cultivator up the building had died.

    Then he walked away while muttering, "Unless of course they are pigs that are struck between a profound treasure or their lives. If we don''t walk away, they will think that we will help them and the faster that they will die."

    As he walked past the cultivator with a righteous heart, Ji Yuan hummed softly. "If you really want to help them, you would have already stepped in to help them rather than trying to score points with the other cultivators. So this is the righteous respect that you''re trying to obtain? Actions sometimes speak louder than words."

    The cultivator with a righteous heart began to smile weakly as he protested weakly, "I am just respecting the leader¡­"

    Only Yun Chi, Xiao Muhan, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue had overheard Ji Yuan''sst remark to the cultivator with the righteous heart because Ji Yuan was speaking very softly. But it was quite audible in their ears as they were nearest to him.

    Sure enough, when Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators had started to move away, the surviving cultivators on top of the buildings had given up hope on a rescue and they quickly used their Escape Talisman.

    However one unfortunately cultivator was unable to use his Escape Talisman because he had already finished his.

    Before he died, he had deeply regretted not listening to Ji Yuan and had even scolded Ji Yuan, "Then if you ask us to die then we have to die?"

    Because at this moment, he had chosen to die himself.

    Ji Yuan was cursing these high level cultivators in his heart; did all these high cultivators cultivate in their rich spiritual mountains until they are saints or what. Did they not know that the most rare and ancient the spirit flora is, it is more likely that a powerful high level deste monster is going to be nearby. Luckily they didn''t pluck it or else the harmony profound animus in this area is going to be affected and all the deste monsters will being our way.

    That was the reason why Ji Yuan had asked them not to pluck any spirit herb along the way.

 Chapter 376 Immortal Class Demonic Beast (1)

    One full day had passed now but the cultivators still could not find any traces of the stone page in the Fallen Gods City.

    So far, Ji Yuan had led the Green Faction in their search for the stone page and they had covered around 50 of the massive ruined buildings.

    Some of these buildings were so massive that that they covered several streets and even blot the sun.

    The progress was really slow because the deste monsters were everywhere and they had to be really careful not to be spotted by them.

    However some battles were actually unavoidable but luckily there was no battle between the high level deste monsters.

    Ji Yuan had told them, "Even if the deste monsters are weak, do not engage them. It is because the blood scent may attract even more of these deste monsters. You never know if they are hidden behind the massive buildings. Also many of these high level deste monsters are actually capable of concealing their profound auras."

    Many of the cultivators were actually muttering theirints behind Ji Yuan''s back;

    "Who do you think he thinks he is?"

    "He just a coward¡­"

    "This great hero is overpowered but overly cautious¡­"

    Ling Feiyue looked a little bored so she asked Xiao Muhan, "While we are moving around to check the ruins around here, tell me something about Ji Yuan that I do not know."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan knew that the ck veiled maiden was the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue so he did not dare to be impolite and quickly stammered a reply, "Yes¡­yes¡­"

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue were all smiling and chucking, "Yes, please share with us some amusing things about Ji Yuan."

    Xiao Muhan asked, "May I know how I can address the maidens here?"

    He had only recognized Ling Feiyue''s voice behind her curtain veil. As for the other five maidens, he had no idea who they were as they were all veiled behind their curtain veils or veils. But he could tell that they were all astonishing beauties.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Who we are, isn''t important. Quick, tell us first!"

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "Yes, yes."

    Ji Yuan cursed Xiao Muhan silently; you''re so spineless and yet you want to fight with me over Yun Chi. I just can''t bear to tell you that Yun Chi is already mine, mine!

    The heughed silently; if you know that Sisi is the Patriarch Mistress of the Water Melody Pce, you will surely faint. And if you know that she is my woman, you will be so green with envy.

    Xiao Muhan actually did not know how to start the gossip.

    He quickly pondered for a while before he said weakly, "One time, some of us went drinking together. And we have asked Ji Yuan who he thinks is the most beautiful maiden in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. So we ask him Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue. Guess what he had said?"

    Ji Yuan: Oh shit!!!

    "Wait, wait!" He panicky turned around to stop Xiao Muhan.

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "I will like to know what he had said."

    Xiao Muhanughed, "He said Beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder. Although they may be very beautiful on the outside, they may well be venomous in the inside."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    All the other maidens: ¡­

    Shui Xisi had suddenly turned ashen all of a sudden¡­

    "We told him that he sounded like a sour grape. Is it because he knows that he has no chance with either of the Goddess Maidens." Xiao Muhan began tough when he recalled the incident. "You know what he had said? He said he had one of the most beautiful beards in the fraternity and the two Goddess Maidens would be going over heels on him. Then he suggested that he had already banged the Venerable Old Hag of the Water Melody Pce¡­"

    Ji Yuan: I''m dead!!! Sisi will kill me for sure¡­

    He did not know that Shui Xisi''s first encounter with him was at that ce where he had gossiped about her.

    Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue immediately said at the same time, "That''s enough. This is not funny."<sub> </sub>

    Even Little Princess was annoyed but for an entirely different reason because she was sure that Ji Yuan would refuse to mention her existence for thest 300 years. So she said. "Can you tell us something else that don''t involves the opposite sex? You are making him sound like a womanizer."

    Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly, "Alright¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly warned him, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong thing!!!"

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Why are you so afraid of? You''re scare that I will dig up your past?"

    <o>,m Ji Yuan stammered, "What¡­I will be afraid? I¡­have a most clean past!"</o>

    Shui Xisi warned Xiao Muhan, "You''ve better not lie to us or withhold anything from us!"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Yun Chi: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly when he felt the immerse pressure that he was getting; when did he be a storyteller now?!

    Finally he said with a heavy sigh, "Ji Yuan sometimes can be really stubborn¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan lifted his hand to say to the cultivators that were moving in small groups behind him, "Everyone, be quiet!"

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "I''ve barely started¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him quietly, "My lord is right. There is something moving ahead of us."

    Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes had spotted a tiny bright animus in between the hundreds of towering buildings; he did not use his divine sense but had used his superior eyesight and he saw a small color disparity in the sky above.

    "Something is moving toward us." Ji Yuan said solemnly. "And it seems to be moving very fast. Everyone stay away and break into smaller groups. Hide in the buildings. I will go and lure this thing away."

    Bai Qianfeng immediately said, "My lord, let me follow you."

    "Me too!" Shui Xisi giggled.

    Ling Feiyue said, "I am gong as well¡­"

    Ji Yuan gently patted her on Ling Feiyue''s shoulder as he interrupted her, "Feiyue, I love you. Stay here first. I''ve an uneasy feeling about this. My danger sense is off the scale this time."

    Then he said to the rest of the maidens, "I will be good with Qianfeng and Sisi around. The rest of you hide yourself first while we go ahead to check what it is."

    With great reluctant, Ling Feiyue and all the other maidens slowly nodded.

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Let me go with the Great Hero Ji Yuan too."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "You stay here as well."

    He was not exactly worried for her but he was afraid that she may identally reveal to Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi that she was the Death God Mingwang.

    Yun Chi said quietly, "This time you may need my help. This thing is actually an immortal ss demonic beast. It is way stronger than the deste or divine beasts of the Celestial Realm. This thing has already sensed our group before we can sense it. It is a true immortal monster of the Deste Realm and is unstoppable. I can help to lure it away."

    When Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had heard Yun Chi, they were shocked; an immortal ss monster in the Celestial Realm is an unthinkable existence!

    Yun Chi had suddenly sped off, "Don''t hesitate. This thing is faster than you think it is. If it wants to, it can even blink to you in an instant because it can fly."

    "Um¡­wait for me." Ji Yuan had immediately followed after Yun Chi through thepounds of the towering ruined buildings.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi quickly exchanged a nce; they were both thinking of the same thing. Howe Yun Chi knows that they are dealing with an immortal demonic monster even before them?

 Chapter 377 Immortal Class Demonic Beast (2)

    As Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Sisi and Yun Chi sped through the streets, they noticed that the deste monsters in the vicinity seemed to be fleeing rather than engaging them in battle.

    Therefore they had an easier time moving through the city buildings.

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly turned to Yun Chi to ask, "That''s weird. How do you know that it is an immortal demonic beast that we will be dealing with?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "It''s not my the first time in this ce."

    Shui Xisi immediately hummed, "Your divine sense seems way too OP to be just a vulnerable maiden."

    Yun Chi smiled, "I may be wrong in my guess. After all, I saw the panic look that was on Ji Yuan so I just assumed that this may be the immortal demonic beast that some of us may have seen in the earlier trial."

    Then she chuckled, "Don''t beat me up if I''m wrong on this."

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "I am a most gentle maiden so naturally I won''t beat you up."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are you sure¡­

    But he kept quiet; let these maidens argue with their tongues¡­I am not getting involved.

    Bai Qianfeng turned to look at Yun Chi coldly, "You say that you have a way to lure it away. Even we have no confidence to do it. I guess that you''re not a weak and vulberable maiden then."

    Yun Chiughed, "Actually that is a lie. If I don''t say like this, will my hero Ji Yuan agreed to bring me along? I didn''t think that I will be able to dupe you as well. You look smarter than Ji Yuan."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not smart?

    Bai Qianfeng muttered to herself; if I so smart then I won''t fall into Ji Yuan''s hands¡­

    Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were suddenly startled; it was because they could now hear the loud sounds of the cultivators and their divine senses had picked up the profound energies of a group of cultivators.

    It was probably the cultivators from the other faction and they were now fighting something.

    When Ji Yuan arrived at the scene, a hundred cultivators were fighting a monstrous humanoid monster and there were also dozens of dead corpses.

    The profound aura of this giant humanoid was terrifying even from afar.

    This giant humanoid was about 20m tall and had six wings. Instead of arms, it had two wings on its upper body. At the same time, two wings covered its face and another two wings covered its legs.

    And rotating around it, were two golden fires that were burnt everything that it touched; many of the cultivators were badly burnt by these two golden fires.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled by the carnage and he could see that they were all hard pressed but none of the cultivators were even using their Escape Talisman.

    His sharp eyes could see that these cultivators were from the Yellow Factor by their yellow sigil ring on their fingers.

    And he could recognize one of the cultivators among them; Hua Yingxiong the Prince from the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire that had gifted him the golden robe.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Hua Yingxiong is also here? Why is he fighting such a fearsome monster? Why didn''t he run away or he have already used up all his Escape Talismans?"

    Yun Chi said, "It is not that they do not want to but they can''t. There is an invisible profound field that is around it that cut off all profound energies to the outside."

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly, "What kind of a monster is this?"<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi said, "This is an immortal demonic beast."

    Ji Yuanmented, "Actually this demonic beast kinda looks very beautiful like a beautiful maiden. This is an angel?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "It sure is a beautiful monster."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that Yun Chi''s extra form was a six winged form so he thought; is she talking about herself? In this case, she is indeed very beautiful."

    "To be exact," Bai Qianfeng solemnly said. "This is a Cherubim Demonic Beast. The reason why this monster is shielding its face is because it has four hideous faces. Also you may think that its legs are beautiful and slender like an angel but the foot is equally hideous."

    Yun Chi hummed, "I don''t agree."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed even more coldly, "Some people may look beautiful but their hearts are actually evil."

    Shui Xisi said, "Totally agree with Sister Qianfeng!"

    Yun Chi chuckled, "I do agree but what is wrong with that?"

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ji Yuan interrupted them impatiently, "We leave the intellect debate toter. We need to think of a way to save these cultivators or they will all be doomed soon."

    The Cherubim Demonic Beast had now increased the intensity of its attack and the middle wings had suddenly transformed into two ming swords, causing the cultivators to cry out with great agony.

    The moving mes along the two ming swords were actually its feathers that were moving but each of the feathers were burning with so much profound energies that it now looked like two ming swords.

    This was profound energies beyond the 7th rank and none of the cultivators, even great saints could not withstand against it!

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Although I don''t like to be a hero but only I can help to free these cultivators from this monster''s profound spatial space so that they can use their Escape Talismans."

    He turned to look at Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi with a heavy sigh, "If I cannot make it back alive, please help me to tell everyone that I love them."

    Then he turned to look at Yun Chi with a quiet look before turning his back to face the Cherubim Demonic Beast.

    I wish I can bang her one more time and I still have not banged Jiajia and Maiden Feng Minyue yet¡­

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were startled and they quickly said, "Don''t do anything foolish! We can retreat. Just leave these cultivators to their doom."

    "Why did you have to learn that Undying Fighting Spirit. It is stupid!" Bai Qianfeng had suddenly caught hold of Ji Yuan by his arm and she was now looking at him with pleading eyes.

    Even Shui Xisi was shaking her head as she caught of Ji Yuan by his other arm, "Please don''t go."

    Ji Yuan shook them off gently before he returned a gentle smile to them, "It is not because of my Undying Fighting Spirit. But I''ve the profound power to save them and if I don''t, I will be undeserving to be a cultivator of the righteous path. Moreover, I may not necessary perish."

    Then he turned to look at Yun Chi¡­

    Yun Chi, if you love me then you will save me, am I right? This is your test.

    Yun Chi had suddenly smiled, "I will always remember your death anniversary. You will always be the hero of my heart."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 378 Immortal Class Demonic Beast (3)

    When Ji Yuan heard and saw Yun Chi''s nonchnt look, his heart sunk. He thought; she is really so heartless. She had yed with my feelings and caused me to lose billions of my precious little brothers¡­

    "Qianfeng, Sisi. Stay here. Don''t you dare follow me or we are over!" Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    "I repeat! We are over if you were to follow me!" He added firmly.

    Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Right now, Ji Yuan know that his profound power was above them because of his two superior divine swords and sword spirits that can amplify his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. Although he knew that they were both formidable fighters as well but he did not want them to take any risk.

    If he did not seed in breaking this Cherubim Demonic Beast''s spatial space then there was only a slim chance that Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi would seed too.

    No matter what, he would not stand by and wait for the 100 over cultivators to all perish right before his very eyes. Already around 100 cultivators had already perished and their corpses literally littered the ce.

    He did not have the heart to stand by and watch by the side.

    Against an immortal demonic beast that was stronger than even an epic ninth rank deste monster, he really had no confidence at all.

    The growth rate of the deste monsters is different from the cultivators and grows exponentially.

    Bai Qianfeng was quietly thinking; My lord. So our love is so superficial? Do you think that I will let you fight this monster alone?

    Shui Xisi was also thinking; Ji Yuan, do you think that you''re the only one that will have a saint-step divine sword? Today I will force open the seal of my divine sword and uses the holy sword of the Great Goddess Alice to y this monster.

    Even though Yun Chi appeared to be nonchnt and cool to Ji Yuan heroism, she was actually saying to herself; I won''t let you die so easily. It so happens that this immortal monster is a Cherubim and I can simply order her not to harm you and to depart away from here.

    She was not lying.

    As the matriarch of all the angels, even an immortal cherubim will need to obey her will. It is just like all the dragon demonic monsters will have to obey the will of the Dragon God Longdi.

    Just as she was about to send a mental message to the Cherubim Demonic Beast to pretend to lose to Ji Yuan, two dark figures from the other side had suddenly appeared and they had attacked the Cherubim Demonic Beast before Ji Yuan even had the opportunity to approach the monster.

    It was a male and a female cultivator with two divine swords each that had suddenly appeared.

    What was shocking about their profound aura was that they were both peaked great saints and they had two saint-step divine swords each in both their hands!

    All the cultivators that were fighting the Cherubim Demonic Beast were startled by their sudden appearance and their strong profound auras that were like a bright sun that stood out in the vicinity.

    The two of them quickly disyed their profound arts and soon the Cherubim Demonic Beast was screaming madly as the male cultivator disyed several ming firebirds to engulf it while the female cultivator disyed a bright light of harken crossing across its body.

    Ji Yuan was startled too but it was also because he had recognized that it was Saint Lu Qingyun and Saintess Fan Yuqing that had suddenly appeared.

    "Brother Lu Qingyun is in this trial too?"

    The Cherubim Demonic Beast screamed with great agony, raising its two ming swords and thousands of fire feathers began to shoot out in all directions like a meteor rain, each one exploding into a huge fireball in mid-air.

    By now Ji Yuan was already near to the battle scene and he quickly raised his two divine swords as he burned his two sword spirits to release all his most powerful profound art, the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Not one, but two simultaneously.

    Immediately his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon began to gather all the fireballs that were raining upon everyone before rebounding onto the Cherubim Demonic Beast.

    Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing had also attacked at the same time with their most powerful profound art.

    In the next instant, the Cherubim Demonic Beast had exploded into pure profound energies.

    All the surviving cultivators were suddenly relieved that they were now safe now and many began to copse on the ground from sheer exhaustion, finally able to rx their guards.

    Hua Yingxiong turned to face Ji Yuan with an extremely weary look, "I didn''t expect for you toe to save me. You''re indeed a great hero and a true knight of my Golden Majesty Celestial Empire. My apologies to you for my attitudest time."

    "The real heroes are them," Ji Yuanughed as he pointed at Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing.

    Then he quickly rushed forward to greet them, "Brother Lu Qingyun and Saintess Fan, why are you here? Haha. Luckily you are here or else I don''t know if I may see the next day sun."

    Lu Qingyun quickly bowed respectfully, "Brother Ji Yuan, you''re also here as well. It is your timely intervention that saves everyone here."

    Fan Yuqing giggled, "Yes, it is such a coincidence. So, have you been traveling with my Sister Saintess Feng Minyue? Where is she? Is she alright?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "She is fine. She is also in this trial."

    Then he noticed that they were in the Red Faction.

    "Haha, we are from the rival factions this time. Your Red Faction must be so lucky to have the two of you on their side."<sub> </sub>

    Fan Yuqing giggled, "My little brother-inw, you''re so wrong in this. They are so unlucky instead."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "You must be joking with me."

    Fan Yuqingughed, "We''re the only two survivors from our Red Faction. So do you think that they are unlucky or lucky?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi was the first to arrive at the scene and she was shouting excitingly, "Sister Saintess Yuqin. Sister Yuqin, you are here! I''m so lucky to have you around. Hehe."

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly, "I''m Yuqing now. You keep forgetting. Lucky I am here to save your ass or else our Sister Feifei will be so sad."

    "You are always my Sister Yuqin. Hehehe." Shui Xisi said as she hugged Fan Yuqing tightly.

    Ji Yuan had already known that Fan Yuqing and Shui Xisi were both half-sisters so they were rted by blood.

    But he never knew that Fan Yuqing would have two saint-step divine swords and the profound power that she had just disyed were stronger than his two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light.

    But this Brother Lu Qingyun was even more formidable.

    Sisi''s sister is so formidable?! Is this for real?

    Four saintly swords?!

    He began to recall that Bai Qianfeng had once told him that Shui Xisi may have an immortal background but he hadughed it off. It was because all the cultivators like to im to have some ties with the immortals but the truth is, it is just a way to increase their prestige.

    "My lord, you''re alright." Bai Qianfeng said as she arrived at the scene.

    She had purposely arrived slower than Shui Xisi because she was hesitant in meeting Lu Qingyun again.

    But Lu Qingyun seemed nonchntly about meeting her again and he had only returned a polite bow.

    This caused her heart to calm down immediately.

    Yun Chi was thest to arrive and she was not smiling.

    Fan Yuqing immediately said to Ji Yuan as she pointed at Yun Chi, "Who is this pretty maiden? I''m sure that she is a real beauty behind her mask."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not as peerless as you."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    It was the truth.

    Fan Yuqing was really an extremely beautiful maiden and she got an enchanting demeanor that could turn heads around.

    At this moment, all the surviving cultivators including Hua Yingxiong were all drooling at Fan Yuqing now.

    Lu Qingyun patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder, gently saying. "Brother, there are some things that your eyes can feast upon but you shouldn''t covet it, do you know?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Naturally¡­"

    But he quickly said, "Brother Lu Qingyun, I''ve met a Maiden Leng Qiuyue in the lower level trial here. She seems to be looking for you."

    Lu Qingyun was startled as he muttered, "Qiuyue¡­"

    Fan Yuqing sighed softly, "I guess that she didn''t forget about you all these years. You have better pay this ex-prot¨¦g¨¦ sister of yours a visit after the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I don''t mind, you know."

    Lu Qingyun sighed heavily, "Yes, I should pay her a visit¡­"

    "Sister Yuqin!" Shui Xisi said excitingly. "Now that you''re here, you can help us to deal with the Death God Mingwang! With brother-inw and you around, this time the Death God Mingwang will be a dead piece of meat. After we''ve killed him, let''s parade his naked body for all to see!"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 379 Immortal Artefact Core! (1)

    Ji Yuan quickly tried to distract the conversation from the Death God Mingwang as he said to Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing, "So I assume that one of you has the Number 404?"

    Fan Yuqing winked at him, "Are you thinking of killing us to get one additional Escape Talisman?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course not. But since the two of you are the solo survivors of your Red Faction, I guess that one of you must be the Number 404."

    Intelligence +10.

    Lu Qingyun smiled, "My number is 75."

    "And my number is 32." Fan Yuqingughed as she shed the number on her si ring for Ji Yuan to see.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Intelligence -100

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and asked, "Then how in the heavens are you going toplete this trial?"

    Fan Yuqing giggled, "We are just thinking of exploring a little more before we quit the trial. After all, it will be a little too wasteful if we use our Escape Talisman a little too early, don''t you think so?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I''ve to agree with you."

    Shui Xisi quickly interrupted as she cuddled Fan Yuqing, "Since there are only the two of you here, why don''t you join my faction to help us for this trial?"

    Fan Yuqingughed softly, "I don''t see why not as long as it is fun."

    "It will be fun!" Shui Xisiughed jovially. "With my Sister Yuqin here, it will always be fun."

    "What do you think Ji Yuan?" She turned to ask Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course."

    As long as they don''t parade Yun Chi naked, I am totally fine.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had an evil grin as he thought of Yun Chi''s naked body in his arms while they were ''ying'' together.

    Hua Yingxiong and several of the cultivators from the Yellow Faction were now bowing respectfully as they said, "We''ve to go now but we promise you that we won''t forget your kindness. If we see any cultivators from your Green Faction, we will surely keep a respectful distance and we won''t attack them."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he replied to them, "I trust your words."

    More than a hundred cultivators from the Yellow Faction chorused loudly at the same time, "We thank Great Hero Ji Yuan, Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing for saving our lives! We will not forget this gratitude that is from you!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t mention it."

    Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing merely nodded; they seemed uninterested and nonchnt.

    Hua Yingxiong smiled to Ji Yuan, "Do you mind if I call you Brother Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan smiled back, "As long as you don''t abandon me like thest time."

    When the Death God Mingwang had suddenly appeared, Hua Yingxiong had suddenly left in a hurry.

    "Hahaha¡­I won''t next time¡­" Hua Yingxiongughed awkwardly as he quickly left with the others. He was a little ashamed of that and Ji Yuan had to remind him of it.

    Shui Xisi turned to Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle, "You! You should keep that under wraps. These cultivators like their faces too much. Be careful that he may bear a grudge against you!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not as though I will be so desperate enough to go to his celestial fraternity and be his knight. Haha."

    "Don''t bet too soon on that. You may be wrong." Shui Xisiughed.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Don''t jinx me with your words."

    Then he turned to Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing to say, "Please follow us back to my faction."

    As everyone began to turn back, all of a sudden the profound energies that were scattered when the immortal cherubim demonic monster had died were suddenly gathering back again.

    This startled everyone.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "This is¡­"

    Fan Yuqing smiled, "We are unlucky and luck at the same time. It seems that it is an immortal artefact core that is forming right now. Unfortunately, no celestial cultivator will be able to harness it and it will even be detrimental to your cultivation core."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "It is impossible to use an immortal beast as an artefact core even if the cultivator has formed his spirit core. Even for a ninth rank immortal the chance is only less than 10% and it can even be deadly. But we are really lucky to encounter one. The chance is like 1 in 1 million¡­"

    She had suddenly kept quiet because she had realized that she had revealed too much of her background to Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing.

    But the two of them continued to look nonchnt and did not question her.

    Bai Qianfeng thought; he knows. Great Lord Xuan Yuan''s state of divinity is totally different from the past and he seems to be a different person now.

    Shui Xisi nodded, "We''re all cultivators of the righteous force. Taking an artefact core from a deste monster and absorbing it as a spirit entity is already so difficult. Moreover this is an immortal demonic beast. We will have a better luck with an immortal divine beast instead of this one. So let''s go and let this artefact core disperses on its ownter."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he brandished his swords to disperse the profound energies that were gathering.

    "Agree. Let me destroy it lest some unwitting idiot cultivatores along the way to absorb this artefact core."<sub> </sub>

    Lu Qingyun smiled, "Brother Ji Yuan is really a considerate cultivator¡­"

    But all of a sudden Lu Qingyun was startled.

    Not only him but Fan Yuqing, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were also startled; it was because the profound energies of the newly formed artefact core of the Cherubim Demonic Beast was flowing into Ji Yuan instead of being dissipated by his attacks.

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Don''t look at me like this! I didn''t do anything! Moreover, how can I absorb another spirit entity when I already have a sword spirits. You know that we can only have one spirit entity¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted weakly, "But you have two sword spirits and two spirit entities. Maybe you''re greedy for a fifth one."

    "Don''t remind me of my Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang. They''re useless, you know." Ji Yuan protested immediately.

    Fairy Anyang hummed coldly inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Hmph! I''m useless?! I am more useful than Xiang Li!"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Indeed Sister Anyang is more useful than me although I can''t remember what your usefulness is."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    The profound energies were now gathering into Ji Yuan''s soul sea at a furious rate.

    Lu Qingyun panicky said to Ji Yuan, "You must deny it quickly or it willy waste to your inner cultivation core and you will be a crippled!"

    Ji Yuan was already struggling panicky to deny the profound energies that were entering into him when a sweet voice said to him. "Don''t listen to him. Let these profound energies flow into you."

    Yun Chi?

    He had recognized the voice to be from Yun Chi.

    He must be getting delusion by now. Or was this the heart demon of the Cherubim Demonic Beast that was at work here and it was making ast attempt to destroy him.

    ''Yun Chi'' voice said to him, "Don''t resist it and soon you will gain yourself a cherubim spirit entity that you can use as your profound force. Allow me into your soul sea¡­"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly; I must be getting delusional now that I am now hearing the voice of Yun Chi¡­

    He said to the voice; if you want toe in then you cane in anytime¡­

    Xiang Li was startled, "Big Brother, you are still absorbing the profound energies?"

    Fairy Anyang was also startled, "You must severe it before it is toote."

    Ji Yuan was also startled, "I can''t control my profound energies now¡­"

    Yun Chi was also startled; it was because she could sense the presence of two sentient spirit entities inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    One of them must be the Goddess'' Tear.

    As for the other one, she had no idea.

    But the fact that Ji Yuan had two sentient spirits already startled her greatly.

    She was the one that had diverted the artefact core of the Cherubim Demonic Beast into Ji Yuan''s inner cultivation core because she wanted to prove to Lu Qingyun and all the others that they were wrong.

    She was an expert in soul energies while the Dragon God Longdi was an expert in body training.

    Therefore she could divert the profound energies into Ji Yuan without anyone noticing what she was doing.

    She was actually thinking; Ji Yuan, this is what I''ve owed you. From today onward, we are quits now. If we meet the next time then we shall be enemies.

    As the matriarch of all the angel monsters, Yun Chi is able to divert their profound energies with a 100% efficacy. Even if it is only a 0.1% chance, as long as it is an angel demonic beast then in her hands it will be 100%.

    But when she saw the two sentient spirits in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, she was quite startled and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

    Am I creating a monster to be my rival?

    Ji Yuan was now saying to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang in his soul sea, unaware that he had identally allowed Yun Chi into his soul sea as he thought that he was having a delusion.

    "You know, Xiang Li." Ji Yuan sighed. "My biggest regret in life now is I haven''t banged Jiajia and Maiden Feng Minyue yet¡­"

    Then he added with a loud chuckle, "And I also want to bang Yun Chi again."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "Me too, Big Brother!" Xiang Li giggled.

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    What is this spirit entity talking about?!

    Then Yun Chi shuddered; she saw our act together that night¡­Ji Yuan never put his spirit entity into sleep mode¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What has this got to do with you?"

    Fairy Anyang face-palmed and sighed, "The two of you are so hopeless. We''re all going to die now and yet you still have the mood to make lewd remarks."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Why am I so unlucky today? I get to be a hero today but this stupid artefact core has to pick me as a victim and now I can''t even shake its profound energies off me. Damn it, I''ve yet to see enough of Yun Chi''s butt. I wonder if she is thinking of me right now¡­"

    Yun Chi was thinking bitterly; I wish that I have never entered your soul sea and listen to your lewd thoughts. Or maybe I should let these chaotic profound energies explode in your inner cultivation core instead.

 Chapter 380 Immortal Artefact Core! (2)

    Ji Yuan continued toment to Xiang Li, "s. Now that I''m going to die, I still haven''t got a chance to tell Yun Chi that I really like her."

    "You mean you like to bang her?" Xiang Li sobbed.

    "s, her peachy between legs and her soft bosoms in my hot fingers¡­yeah¡­I really miss that." Ji Yuan sighed heavily.

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan! You can really die now! To think that I am here to help you. So this is your innermost thoughts!

    She really cannot believe that Ji Yuan was so degenerate as to share private moments with his spirit entity.

    Ji Yuan sighed again, "At least I''ve my two spirit consorts to be with me when I die. This isn''t that bad."

    Yun Chi was startled; he makes his two spirit entities as his spirit consorts?! Can anything be more ridiculous than this?

    Xiang Li nodded, "But Big Brother won''t die!"

    Ji Yuan said warmly to Xiang Li, "I love you Xiang Li."

    Fairy Anyang hummed coldly, "What about me then?"

    "I love you too, Anyang." Ji Yuanughed warmly.

    Fairy Anyang said solemnly, "I don''t want my lord to die. Moreover we still got Xiang Li."

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "No!"

    The first time that Xiang Li used her wish to transform his celestial sword to an immortal sword, he could feel her soul being torn apart and he felt a great sense of loss.

    He did not want to experience that again even though there was a chance that he may save his own skin.

    Fairy Anyang suddenlyughed, "No wait! My lord, you''re not going to die!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "You''re justforting me so that I can strengthen my resolve to live, am I right? This is one of the oldest tricks in the book and I won''t fall for it."

    Intelligence +10

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was startled, "My profound energies inside my spiritual sea isn''t chaotic anymore. In fact, it is quite soothing¡­"

    Fairy Anyang said weakly, "Told you so."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Haha¡­so I''m really not going to die¡­"

    Intelligence -100.

    But he quickly said, "Weird. Howe I don''t feel any deste profound energies in my spiritual sea?"

    Fairy Anyang was also perplexed, "It is too soothing. That is indeed too weird."

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Xiang Li, did you do anything or make any wish?"

    Xiang Li had a perplexed look, "What wish?"

    She just could not remember anything when the Goddess Tear''s ability was mentioned.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Xiang Li, Anyang. Guess what. It must because that I''m a genius cultivator. Haha."

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered, "You''re not¡­what is going on around here?"

    Yun Chi was thinking; he''s too idiotic to figure out that it is me who is helping him¡­

    Outside of Ji Yuan''s soul sea, all the others were equally perplexed.

    Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were all panicky examining Ji Yuan and were using their profound strength to help Ji Yuan to stabilize his inner cultivation core but they could not affect the external profound energies that were entering into Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi shouted at Yun Chi, "Why are you still standing there for? Come and help Ji Yuan!"

    But Yun Chi coolly answered, "This is an immortal beast''s artefact core. Serve him right for trying to absorb it on his own."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed, "This woman is too heartless. When Ji Yuan is in trouble, she refuses to recognize him but while Ji Yuan is a hero, she just flocks to him."

    "This is actually her true colors!" Shui Xisi hummed coldly.

    Yun Chiughed, "It is not like you can do anything to help Ji Yuan. Maybe the two of you are actually hoping that he will die instead so that you can inherit his profound treasures."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "If Ji Yuan dies then the next person to die will be you!"<sub> </sub>

    But Yun Chi pretended to be nonchnt while secretly filtering out all the harmful deste energies for Ji Yuan.

    All of a sudden Lu Qingyun gasped while examining Ji Yuan''s profound aura, "Weird. The profound energies of this immortal beast is quietly being absorbed by Ji Yuan at an ever increasing rate¡­"

    "And it doesn''t seem to harm his inner cultivation core too." Fan Yuqing added with a soft gasp. "But this is not possible since he can''t amodate anymore spirit entities into his spiritual sea anymore."

    "That means that Ji Yuan won''t be in any danger?" Shui Xisi was so relieved that her golden eyes had turned bleary with joy.

    Bai Qianfeng was muttering, "This¡­isn''t possible. By right, he cannot absorb anymore spirit entity¡­"

    Yun Chi giggled, "See! There is no need for me to get involved. He is a genius cultivator after all and he will be alright."

    "Count yourself lucky this time." Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly opened his golden eyes as the artefact core of the Cherubim Demonic Beast was absorbed into his inner cultivation core.

    He looked a little sheepish because he did not even need to do anything and he had already absorbed itpletely after the initial great hurdle.

    This great hurdle was cleared a little too fast and Ji Yuan did not even know what was going on!

    When he saw that he was being surrounded by Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi, heughed weakly. "Thank you all. Haha."

    Lu Qingyun weakly said, "Actually Brother Ji Yuan, we didn''t do anything at all."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to ask Lu Qingyun what was going on, his body began to shake uncontrobly and this forced everyone to take several steps backward immediately!

    Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were all gasping with shock at the same time too because Ji Yuan had suddenly absorbed half of their profound energies at the same time!

    Ji Yuan''s golden profound aura had suddenly been strengthened and an inertia barrier had formed at the same time.

    Instead of his usual faint translucent golden aura, his golden animus was radiating with a golden light and six golden wings had emerged from his golden aura!

    This was Ji Yuan''s spirit entity!

    An immortal spirit entity!

    Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi appeared to be shaken because when Ji Yuan had released his spirit animus, his state of divinity had suddenly reached to the mortal-step of the initial stage of the 8th cultivation realm!

    Right below everyone''s eyes, Ji Yuan''s spiritual sea was now expanding beyond its spiritual boundaries!

    Initial Mortal-step!

    Initial Earth-step!

    Initial Heaven-step!

    Initial Peak!

    Breakthrough to the Middle-Stage!

    Middle Mortal-step!

    Middle Earth-step!

    One step advancement for each wing that was spreading and strengthening!

    Everyone was shocked; Ji Yuan had be the first 8th realm great saint in the entire Celestial Realm without ascending as an immortal cultivator first!

    Fan Yuqing said with great disbelief, "The great seal of the Great God Pangu does not work on Ji Yuan? He can actually advance to the 8th cultivation realm?!"

    Even Yun Chi''s lips were trembling; did I just create a monster?

    Initial she had only wanted to strengthen Ji Yuan''s golden animus with the Cherubim Demonic Beast''s artefact core since she knew that Ji Yuan was unable to amodate another spirit entity.

    As she was dissolving the artefact core of the Cherubim Demonic Beast while giving Ji Yuan and the others a false rm, she was suddenly startled that the shattered profound energies of the Cherubim Demonic Beast were reforming into a core again.

    Fairy Anyang was now saying to Ji Yuan''s in his soul sea as she giggled, "I''m not exactly useless, you know. My spirit energies is the ability to expand the boundaries of the spiritual seas for you to amodate one more spirit entity. Also, I''ve absorbed half of their profound energies to help you to reform this immortal artefact core since you can absorb it so well."

    Xiang Li was also giggling, "Big Brother, I am also notpletely useless! I can enhance the spirit entities of the others but not myself. So I enhance Sister Anyang''s ability."

    Fairy Anyang gasped softly, "But I guess that Xiang Li enhance me too much. I can''t believe that she can actually expand your spiritual seas to beyond the 7th realm without triggering an ascension."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped as he stammered, "So I am really an 8th realm cultivator now?"

    Then he quickly frowned as he said to Fairy Anyang, "Why did you take their profound energies for?! Do you know that they will curse me hardter?"

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "Since they''re already using their profound energies to aid you so I may as well use it. Unless you want to burn your own spiritual seas to expand your spiritual boundaries."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before heughed weakly, "Better use theirs. Every one of them has more spiritual energies than me. Also, they can use profound pills and high grade spirit stones to replenish their spiritual seas. They are so rich anyway. Just treat it as a donation to a poor beggar like me."

 Chapter 381 8th Rank Immortal Cultivator

    A 7th rank profound deste monster had suddenly appeared in front of the blocks ahead.

    And an 8th realm cultivator had also appeared.

    He was actually Ji Yuan.

    An 8th realm cultivator is also an immortal cultivator because he has transcended all his life and death tribtions.

    But in the Celestial Realm, an immortal cultivator will be restricted to the 7th realm cultivation strength due to the specialws of bnce.

    But not Ji Yuan.

    He could use his profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm when he disys his Cherubim Spirit Animus.

    Right now his inner cultivation sea is doubled the size when he was a peaked great saint.

    And even his profound strength is also doubled.

    This includes his profound recovery as well.

    Not only that, his profound defenses had also been enhanced by several times as though he had an internal profound art.

    Not only that, he could lift both his two superior divine swords effortlessly now with his profound strength. Previously his two superior divine swords had used a lot of his profound strength just to lift them around and moreover he had two.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi. "We''re so lucky to have encountered a high level deste monster. Stay here and watch me!"

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "Of course we have to watch you. You''ve just drained our spiritual energies just now."

    Ji Yuanughed, "It is all thanks to all of you that I don''t have to use my spirit energies. If not, I will need to enter into seclusion for a number of years. The spiritual energies that are used for a realm breakthrough can only be cultivated slowly and only 30% of the spirit energies can be replenished by high grade spirit stones. It will cost me millions of high grade spirit stones just to replenish back my profound strength to the 8th realm level again. But for you all, your loss is just temporary so you can pop regaining profound pills and high grade spirit stone to gain back 100% of your profound strength."

    Shui Xisi cursed softly, "Excuses¡­"

    "Haha. We shall talkter. Let me settle this monster first." Ji Yuan interrupted with a chuckle as he brandished his two divine swords.

    Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing were rolling their eyes as they looked at each other; they were still speechless with what had happened to Ji Yuan earlier.

    Even Bai Qianfeng was looking dazzled; it looks so unfair that Ji Yuan is not restricted to the 7th realm cultivation while she a lofty goddess of the 9th realm initial cultivation is being restricted.

    Yun Chi was sighing bitterly; she has greatly underestimated the Goddess Tear and had forgotten that the heavenlyws of the cosmos do not apply to the Goddess Tear.

    The Goddess Tear is originally a tear from the Great Beyond Goddess to bring hope to the weaker races. However having the Goddess Tear does not necessary mean that the owner will be able to use the Goddess Tear. Only the pure heart and those that do not use the Goddess Tear for their own selfish means will be able to use it.

    That was why she refused to believe that Ji Yuan could use the Goddess Tear. And moreover, didn''t he already use the Goddess Tear already to obtain his immortal sword? But apparently, it seems that Ji Yuan still has the Goddess Tear.

    She had taken a peek at Xiang Li when she had secretly entered Ji Yuan''s soul sea and was startled to see an unfathomable spiritual energies within Xiang Li thates from the Great Beyond.

    She is very sure that Xiang Li is the Goddess Tear because of that.

    Moreover, it is impossible for Ji Yuan to be an 8th realm immortal cultivator without the aid of the Goddess Tear.

    But what startled her next was that Xiang Li did not disappear.

    ordingly to the secret knowledge of the immortal gods, the Goddess Tear actually can only be used only once before disappearing.

    Just as she was about to probe further, she was forced to leave Ji Yuan''s soul sea because her spiritual sense cannot dwell inside an 8th realm cultivator.

    Did Ji Yuan use or did not use the Goddess Tear?

    This bes her lingering question¡­

    Why am I trembling?

    I do not fear him.

    Even an eighth realm cultivator is merely a lowly immortal.

    I''m a peaked 9th realm cultivator, one of the mightiest immortals in the cosmos.

    Then she began to fluster as she remembered his light touches.

    She fears his light touches and sweet nothings¡­<sub> </sub>

    The 7th rank profound deste monster attacked Ji Yuan''s immediately.

    Immediately dozens of tentacles began to fly with a dazzling speed against Ji Yuan. Even before the tentacles could reach Ji Yuan, there was a sonic boom that ripped through the air and each of the tentacles could easily rip apart even a saint cultivator.

    Ji Yuan immediately lifted his divine swords in front of him to block the iing tentacles.

    But as he disyed his spirit animus, he had suddenly realized that his six wings were also lending him more speed than ever before so instead of blocking the previously impossible to evade attack, he sped out of harm''s way.

    He was even faster than before!

    It was not only his profound strength that was being enhanced but his reflexes as well!

    In a blink of an eye, he was already near the 7th rank profound deste monster and had killed it with two swing of his sword in the next instant.

    <o>,m He did not even need to disy any profound sword arts and his two superior swords broke through the profound defenses of the 7th rank monster like a piece of tofu.</o>

    Ji Yuan was astonished.

    His 8th realm cultivation strength, coupled with his two sword spirits and superior divine swords had given him a huge boost of profound power!

    Although his profound strength has doubled but sword spirits and his superior divine swords can actually enhance the profound power of his profound strength. The increase of his profound power is actually more than triple and not just double!

    He did not even need to use any profound sword art and the usually resilient profound defense of the 7th rank profound monster was bypassed by him.

    Ji Yuanughed as he walked back to his party, "This is too easy."

    Shui Xisi muttered, "You''re looking a little too conceit."

    "Not a little too conceit but extremely conceit now." Bai Qianfeng rolled her eyes.

    "Haha. Of course not. I will be conceited? No way!" Ji Yuanughed.

    Then he winked at Shui Xisi, "So now between me and Jiajia, who is the stronger now?"

    Shui Xisi murmured weakly, "Who say that you''re not conceited?"

    "Don''t forget that you may have a strong opponent that is still in the trial. Have you forgotten about the Death God Mingwang?" Bai Qianfeng reminded him.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Then I shall parade the Death God Mingwang naked in the streets. Hahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Why did I have to be so nosey and help him to strengthen his profound animus in the first ce¡­

    Then Ji Yuan said to his party as heughed jovially, "Oh by the way, I have suddenly realized that I''ve formed my golden core as well. Since I''ve already formed my soul and spirit core, forming the golden core means that I''vepleted the True Sacred Saint Profound Art."

    The very reason why Ji Yuan did not start with his golden core was because hecked any powerful internal profound art to form a golden art.

    But now after he had gained the Immortal Cherubim Demonic Beast as his artefact core, that had bes his golden core substitute.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Shui Xisi turned to Bai Qianfeng to say, "You''re right. He is indeed extremely conceited right now."

    "Maybe an 8th rank deste monster wille along his way to kill him shortly." Yun Chi smiled weakly.

    This time Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were not offended by Yun Chi but they added together, "Hope so!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Is this the way to curse your future lord¡­"

 Chapter 382 Whereabouts Of The Stone Page

    When Ji Yuan was back to the ce where the Green Faction had hidden from view, he was quickly greeted by Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing.

    Even Xiao Muhan and many of the cultivators were there to greet him back excitingly but they were all gasping when they saw Fan Yuqing.

    It was because Fan Yuqing was too astonishing in her alluring beauty.

    They had all thought that Yun Chi was beautiful enough and had a most charming demeanor that could make them fall over their heels with her but Fan Yuqing was another peerless beautiful with an enticing bewitching charm; the type that could cause men''s hearts to be stolen by her.

    Feng Minyue gasped as she hugged Fan Yuqing, "Sister Saintess Yuqing, you are actually here¡­"

    "Hehe!" Fan Yuqing chuckled, "That is right."

    "I really miss you so much." Feng Minyue said gently to Fan Yuqing.

    Fan Yuqing said with a sly smile, "I''m sure that you''re not because there is a beautiful man in yourpany."

    There was a suddenly flush behind Feng Minyue''s veil but she coolly replied, "I hate men."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fan Yuqing chuckled as she winked in the direction of Ji Yuan, "Is that so."

    Feng Minyue: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan looked at Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing before he asked Ji Yuan, "Why did you bring two cultivators from the other faction here? I must admit that this man is really handsome but he pales inparison to me. As for this maiden here, she has the most peerless looks. How did you manage to trick her to be in yourpany?"

    Ji Yuan kicked Xiao Muhan away, "Saintess Fan Yuqing and Brother Lu Qingyun is a couple. Moreover Brother Lu Qingyun is my true brother unlike you. He has helped me several times."

    Then he turned to say to the rest of the cultivators from his faction, "I''ve two friends here that are here to help us. They may be from the opposing faction but they are my real friends."

    Ling Feiyue pulled Ji Yuan aside, "Ji Yuan, let''s put that aside first. Tell us what have happens."

    Yu Jingjing was bleary as she said, "We''ve thought that you may have used the Escape Talisman or in mortal danger."<sub> </sub>

    "I''ve tried to stop her from going after you several times." Little Princess sighed.

    Ji Yuan looked at Yu Jingjing and he was secretly touched.

    He had met Yu Jingjing in this trial and he had never thought that she would be so infatuated with him and even got along with the rest of his love interests so well.

    He quickly tried tough it off by saying, "Of course, of course. I will tell you something very exciting. If you are not impressed by it than I shall parade myself naked in the streets. Haha."

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were ncing at each other with the same thoughts; he must be trying to show off his new cultivation realm to everyone¡­

    Fan Yuqing chuckled to the maidens that were surrounding Ji Yuan, "My greetings to everyone. But may I interrupt with something more important?"

    Ji Yuan and all the maidens: ???

    Fan Yuqing smiled, "Actually I do know where the stone page is. I''ve seen it."

    Ji Yuan and all the nearby cultivators almost dropped their jaws when they had heard her.

    Ji Yuan had a perplexed look on his face, "Then why didn''t you tell me earlier? This is such a heaven-defying news."

    Fan Yuqing chuckled, "That is because I''ve suddenly realized that this trial isn''t fun anymore and that is why I''m telling you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You mean if it is fun then you won''t tell me the whereabouts of the stone page?"

    Fan Yuqing nodded, "That''s right. I don''t want to ruin your fun of finding the stone page."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Actually it is more fun if you can tell us the location of the stone page."

 Chapter 383 The Stone Page

    Fan Yuqing really did not lie to Ji Yuan and his Green Faction about the stone page.

    After a day of navigating through the city blocks, they had found the stone page inside one of the ruined buildings.

    A stone monument stood in front of them and there was also a ck stele to exin its use.

    The cultivators from the Green Faction were all excited and they all had a sigh of relief when they saw the stone page.

    Finally they could receive a relic of the Fallen Gods Relic!

    Many of the first time cultivators including Ji Yuan and his personal party were soon touching the ck stele for further instructions.

    It was precisely as Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang had told him; there were several hidden rules for the trial that were not known until the cultivators could touch the ck stele. For example, killing the Number 404 by the opposing cultivator can gain the opposing faction an Escape Talisman.

    Xiao Muhan wasughing to Ji Yuan, "Hahaha. This is my first Fallen Gods Relic."

    Ji Yuanughed as he asked back, "So how many times have you failed?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Do you have to ask me such a personal question?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "In what way is this a personal question?"

    Xiao Muhan hummed coldly, "You''re such an insensitive person."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all giggling softly when they had heard Xiao Muhan.

    "Yea! He has always been insensitive." Ling Feiyue chuckled.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words¡­"

    "When you''ve made me cry, are you being sensitive or insensitive?" Ling Feiyue pointed out.

    "And you can even fool around behind our backs." Little Princess added.

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear them as he pulled Xiao Muhan closer to him, "You know. Let''s put this aside first. You know I''ve always been a sensitive person¡­"

    "You mean when you are counting spirit stones and did not want to pay for your share of the tabs?" Xiao Muhan frowned.

    "Indeed, you''re really sensitive when ites to money."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he muttered softly, "Can''t you all focus on the trial instead? We''re in the middle of a trial, you know. Be serious."

    "He just doesn''t want his awkward past to be mentioned in front of so many cultivators." Xiao Muhanughed.

    Yun Chi said quietly, "So what are you waiting for? Go on and ce your si ring on the stone page."

    It was not only Yun Chi that was wishing that Ji Yuan could quickly touched the stone page with his si ring but all the cultivators as well.

    Even Fan Yuqing and Lu Qingyun.

    Fan Yuqing smiled, "You should quicklyplete this trial so that we can party again when we are all back at the Red Mansion."

    Just as Ji Yuan took a step forward toward the stone page, he had suddenly halted his step. "I''ll like to try something first."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin for a while as he inspected the stone page from different direction and he even gave the stone page a strong kick.

    Xiao Muhan quickly stopped him with a big growl, "Brother Ji Yuan, what are you doing? What if you''ve destroyed this stone page and cause us to fail the trial?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I''m just testing if it is a solid or can even be moved from the same spot. Don''t worry, it won''t be damaged so easily since this is a trial objective."

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "You will never know, you know. Maybe under your mighty kick, it will break apart."

    Little Princess, Yu Jingjing and Shui Xisi were all nodding too.

    By now, they had already known that Ji Yuan had just be the first 8th realm cultivator.

    Ling Feiyue urged Ji Yuan, "Hurry and get done over it. We don''t want any idents to happen along the way."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What ident will happen? Don''t jinx me. Moreover it is only for a few extra minutes."

    Shui Xisi suggested with a wryly smile, "Maybe the Death God Mingwang is hiding nearby, just waiting for you to appear before assassinating you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He resisted the temptation to look in the direction of Yun Chi because she did not know yet that he had already known her true identity as the Death God Mingwang.

    But he could hear Yun Chi soft giggling.

    He was silently cursing; Yun Chi, do you know that this giggle of yours has already exposed yourself that you are linked to the Death God Mingwang. Never mind, I''m a gentleman of the sword so I won''t expose you or to screw you in front of the others. But privately, I like to screw you¡­

    "Ji Yuan, why are you being so cautious for?" Little Princess asked.

    Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh, "He is always like this. He did worse things when I am alone with him in another trial previously."

    Yu Jingjing said with an envious look, "How I wish that I know Ji Yuan earlier and is able to be in the same trial as he is."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "You won''t enjoy it because you will probably vomit blood several times."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Am I really this horrible that I can cause you to vomit blood several times¡­

    But he quickly said, "I''m going to test something first."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan said, "Feiyue is 77, Little Princess is 3, Qianfeng is 200, Sisi is 106, Maiden Feng Minyue is 12, Jingjing is 5, Yun Chi is 1. The seven of you adds up to 404 nicely. So I want the seven of you to touch the stone page with me."

    Then he turned to look at the two hundred surviving cultivators, "In additional, I want assemble another 404 from among the rest of the cultivators. So who wants to volunteer?"

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Did you read the ck stele already? Forming the Number 404 and touching the stone page will make us lose one Escape Talisman. Are you thinking of getting three Fallen Gods Relic from the stone page? Let me tell you, it won''t work because it isn''t mention that you can from the ck stele. Only one Fallen God Relic can be obtained per Greed Ind Trial."

    Ji Yuanughed, "No harm trying."

    Many of the cultivators wereughing at Ji Yuan;

    "Is he nuts?"

    "Just hurry and be done with the trial so that we can restart again."

    "He is just wasting our time here."

    "I believe in you." A sweet voice had suddenly said and Qin Shuang had stepped forward. "My number is 300."

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is a good number!"

    Qin Shuang: ???

    Xiang Li asked in his soul sea, "Because it resonates with the 300 Spartans?"

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li, "No, because my good friend Xiao Muhan here has the number 104."

    He quickly patted Xiao Muhan, "I know that your number is 104. So you gonna help me."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    He began to mutter while cursing Ji Yuan, "Why do I have a friend like you¡­what bad luck to know you¡­you didn''t apologize to me when you force me to be on the run¡­"

    Although he was unwilling in his speech but he had already followed Qin Shuang as they stepped forward to the stone page to assist Ji Yuan with his ''bright idea''.

    After all, Ji Yuan was his best friend no matter what even though they often had their fierce arguments.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said, "On my count of 3, we shall all touch the stone page together."

    Fan Yuqing rolled her eyes, "While this looks fun but this isn''t going to work."

    Ji Yuanughed as he began to count, "1¡­2¡­2 ?¡­"

    Everyone: ¡­

    "What are you doing?" Xiao Muhan frowned. "Are you trying to trick some of us to lose our Escape Talisman in this manner?"

    Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled pleasantly, "Maybe I should volunteer to do the counting instead?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I was only trying to ensure that we are all touching it on the count of 3."

    Then heughed, "Let''s restart the count again. Haha."

    Little Princess muttered, "My lord, you''ve better don''t do a 2 ? count again."

    "Or a 1 and ? count." Bai Qianfeng frowned.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly when he saw everyone''s expressions.

    The cultivators behind Ji Yuan were allughing nonstop at Ji Yuan''s antics andedic actions.

    Ji Yuan mustered his voice as he counted again, "Ready, 1¡­2¡­3¡­"

    At which everyone began to put their si rings on the stone page at the same time.

    All of a sudden there was a brilliant light from the stone page and everyone saw three Fallen Gods Relic flying into the si rings of Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue, Yun Chi, Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan.

    The rest of the cultivators were all startled when they saw the 3 Fallen Gods Relic.

    "There is really 3 Fallen Gods Relics¡­"

    "What is going on?"

    "This¡­isn''t supposed to be happening¡­"

    "Howe they are the ones that are receiving the Fallen Gods Relic? What about us¡­"

    The trial voice echoed loudly from above, "Because you''ve triggered a hidden special condition of the trial, you shall receive 3 Fallen Gods Relic instead of just 1. However, this special condition only rewards only those that are touching the stone page. As for the rest, no Fallen Gods Relic will be rewarded."

    When the trial voice had finished speaking, Ji Yuan and the rest that had touched the stone page with their si rings had vanished in a brilliant sh of light as they were forcefully returned to the Red Mansion.

    The rest of cultivators were left in a state of startled confusion and many had regretted that they did not step forward earlier to assist Ji Yuan''s request.

    Even Fan Yuqing was left in a startled surprise, "Hey, this isn''t fun for you toplete this trial alone¡­"

    Lu Qingyun smiled weakly to Fan Yuqing, "I guess that we have to do it the hard way again."

 Chapter 384 Completion Of The 5th Level S Rank Trial (1)

    Ji Yuan and his group now found themselves in a brightly lit chamber with three portals.

    Yu Jingjing was gasping with shock, "How did Ji Yuan know that this will work?"

    Qin Shuang was also gasping with astonishment, "I can''t believe that I canplete an S Rank Trial on the 5th level¡­"

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "He is only good in guessing. It is just blind luck."

    Ling Feiyue said weakly to the maidens in her party, "Luckily this time I did not doubt him."

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "You did¡­"

    "No I did not." Ling Feiyue protested.

    Little Princess asked Ji Yuan curiously, "My lord, how did you manage to deduct that this will work?"

    "Don''t give us any of that genius cultivator stuff." Ling Feiyue added with a soft giggle.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''ve thought that this trial is already unusual hard and yet we''re expected toplete it three times in a row. Moreover, the ck stele did not say that only one 404 is allowed. So I''ve thought of trying it."

    Yu Jingjing interrupted curiously, "Surely the others will try it, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Maybe not. It is because no one wants to lose their precious Escape Talisman if they are given a choice."

    Feng Minyue nodded, "People are selfish so they probably won''t even try. Look at the cultivators in our Green Faction and you can see."

    "Although they are willing to ept Ji Yuan as the leader but in their hearts they still mistrust him." Bai Qianfeng agreed.

    Even Yun Chi was forced to agree, "That is why these cultivators have to resort to getting the first timers into the Red Mansion so as to make use of them. I didn''t think that there may be a hidden loophole to ovee this trial. But this requires trust or it won''t work."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Luckily, I have my trusted friends here."

    Yun Chi averted her eyes, "We''re not friends."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    A voice had suddenly thundered above them, "You havepleted the trial and will receive your due reward."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all overjoyed.

    Even Qin Shuang, Xiao Muhan and Yun Chi were smiling.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Now it is our turn to pick one of the three portals."

    "What three portals? I''ve only seen two." Xiao Muhan frowned.

    "Same here." Qin Shuang quietly said. "But it seems because we''ve onlypleted our first trial on the 5th level so we still got one more to go."

    The trial spirit thundered, "That''s right. Only those that are able to go to the 6th level will be able to see the third portal."

    Ji Yuan patted Xiao Muhan before saying, "Sorry bro. You''re out of luck. Hopefully you are able to ovee the next trial on the 5th level. I''m sorry that I won''t be around to help you because I''m going to the 6th level now. Haha."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "I''m actually d to get rid of you, bro."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan turned to Yun Chi to ask, "You can see the third portal too?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Yes, I can."

    The trial spirit thundered again, "Ji Yuan, you''re the first cultivator to havepleted the trial as well as the first one to exploit the secret vulnerability of this trial. Therefore you will get a rich reward."

    Ji Yuan was pleased, "Haha. I''m the first? What a surprise. I really didn''t expect it."

    The trial spirit continued, "You can now choose the green portal to go to the next level, yellow portal to remain in stasis until the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over or the blue portal to remain in the 5th level.

    Ji Yuan said, "I will be going to the 6th level."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all nodding excitingly in eager anticipation for the 6th level.

    Yun Chi suddenly said to Ji Yuan, "I''m going to the 6th level as well. We probably won''t be meeting again so all the best wishes to you."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "You won''t know for sure if we will be able to meet or not."

    Yun Chi said firmly, "We won''t be."

    Ji Yuan thought; Is it because you will soon be resuming the identity of the Death God Mingwang¡­

    Yun Chi began to take a broad stride toward the green portal before she smiled, "Farewell everyone. All the best to all of you."

    All the maidens did not reply to her except for Xiao Muhan who said, "Hope to see you soon. All the best to you too!"

    The rest of the maidens know that Yun Chi was being sarcastic when she had said that.

    Ji Yuan suddenly said to Yun Chi, "May I speak with you for a second."

    Yun Chi paused for a while before she nodded.

    Ji Yuan said with a relief, "Then shall we go over to that corner to talk?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Are you sure? Can''t you talk here? Be careful that the maidens that are with you will be jealous of me."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course not."

    "I am jealous." Shui Xisi giggled.

    "Me too!" All the other maidens giggled at the same time except for Feng Minyue and Qin Shuang.

    "I am also jealous." Xiao Muhan frowned. "Surely you''re not thinking of dering your love for Maiden Yun Chi? You''ve already such a huge harem. Surely you can stop here."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It is not what all of you think it is."

    Yun Chi said quietly, "Alright, be quick about it. I''m actually in a hurry."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he pointed at a corner, "It will be a quick one, don''t worry. Come, let''s go over that corner first."

    Yun Chi nodded as she began to follow Ji Yuan to the corner.

 Chapter 385 Completion Of The 5th Level S Rank Trial (2)

    Once they were at the corner, Yun Chi turned around to ask Ji Yuan. "What is it that you want to say to me? Can''t you say it out in front of everyone?"

    Ji Yuan replied with a heavy sigh, "I can''t. Because I want to tell you that I love you."

    Yun Chi gasped softly before she quickly answered coldly, "We are a mistake right from the very start. Moreover, I am only making use of you to clear this trial. Now that this trial is finished, we can all go on our separate ways."

    Ji Yuan replied, "I can''t ept that we''ve only a one night stand. Do you dare to say that losing your chastity to me is only a small deal?"

    Yun Chi was stoned for a while before she moved her trembling lips, "You don''t know who I am. We are allpetitors in the trial and one day, we may even end up on opposing sides."

    Ji Yuan sighed; he does know who she is¡­

    But he pretended not to know as he said, "Who you are, isn''t important. The most important is that I like you."

    Yun Chi smiled bitterly, "This sounds pretty one-sided."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "This isn''t one-sided. Your orgasms indicate to me that you''re very happy to be with me."

    Yun Chi had a sudden flush on her cheeks, "You¡­you¡­this is something personal. Do you have to mention it?"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Since we like each otherpany, why don''t we be together?"

    Yun Chi lifted up three of her fingers, "I can give you three reasons why we shouldn''t be together."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Yun Chi said. "One, we barely know each other and we''re from different fraternities."

    "Two, you do not even know my background."

    "Three, you think too highly of yourself and you''re the type of cultivator that I will not hesitate to kill."

    "So, can you leave now?"

    Ji Yuan had also lifted three of his fingers, "I can also give you three reasons why we should be a couple."

    Yun Chi: ???

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "First of all, you are my woman already¡­"

    "Who says I''m your woman?!" Yun Chi interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan refused to answer her and instead he continued, "Secondly, I can''t allow you to go around attracting the attention of the lecherous men."<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "That is my business."

    Ji Yuan continued, "Thirdly, I will want to bang you again."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi stared at Ji Yuan with disbelief, "You are such an uncultured swine."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I can be shameless in front of the woman that I love."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "You don''t even know who I am. Maybe we will even be an enemy in the future."

    Ji Yuan said with a sigh, "I hope that we won''t be enemies in the future. But so what? As long as you don''t harm any of my beloveds and best friends, we are not enemies."

    Then he reached out from his spatial ring to take out a grey panties, "This is your betrothed gift to me. I know that you like me so why are you denying your own feelings?"

    Yun Chi stammered as she flushed, "Who says it is my betrothed gift to you?"

    Ji Yuan answered coolly, "Any gift from you is a betrothed gift to me."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "I''m not talking to you anymore."

    Yun Chi appraised Ji Yuan before she turned around to walk to the green portal.

    Before she entered the green portal, she took a second look at Ji Yuan who was still looking dreamily at her.

    She silently said; Ji Yuan, it is impossible for us to be together. It is because I''m the Death God Mingwang and the enemy of the Righteous Immortals. And my objective is to kill you lest you are able to use the Goddess Tear against us. After today, Yun Chi is dead and you will never see her again. Isn''t this good anyway? So that we can preserve the good memories that are between us.

    Ji Yuan was also thinking as he continued to look at Yun Chi until she had disappeared into the green portal; I know that you are the Death God Mingwang. But that isn''t important right? As long as you do noty your hands on my beloved and best friends, we can still be together. Moreover I know that you like me or else why will you give me your chastity¡­

 Chapter 386 Completion Of The 5th Level S Rank Trial (3)

    Ji Yuan had now stepped through to the green portal and he soon found himself in a dark spatial space.

    The trial spirit thundered above him, "Now it is the time for you to choose your reward."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I''m actually looking forward to it."

    The trial spirit asked. "Do you want to upgrade your immortal divine sword into a saintly divine sword? Or choose to have a celestial divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Are you treating me like an idiot? Of course I will choose to upgrade my immortal divine sword into a saintly divine sword."

    The trial spiritughed, "The odd for it to seed is only 1%."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Then I will rather choose the celestial divine sword¡­"

    "Not so fast!" Fairy Anyang interrupted sharply as she appeared next to Ji Yuan. "My lord, choose the first option."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Anyang, I didn''t ask you to be out. Why are you out?"

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "I am your spirit consort. Do I need your permission to do whatever I want now?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The trial spirit above them thundered shockingly, "Fairy Anyang, why are you with him? And what did you say? Why did you abandon your trial at the forth level?"

    Fairy Anyang chuckled lightly, "My utmost respects to the Most Reverable Spirit. Ji Yuan is my lord now and hence I''ve to follow him."

    The trial spirit thundered madly, "I''ve ask you why did you abandon your trial and not the reason why you''re following him. Have you forgotten your sacred oaths to the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan barked him immediately, "Hey, old man or old spirit. Don''t you get so vulgar with my Anyang. Only I can remand her, not you."

    "Mere celestial, shut up or you are not getting any reward from me." The trial spirit thundered madly.

    "Old fart, you shut up first!" Ji Yuan raised his fists up to shout loudly.

    He had a sudden startle when he felt a sudden electric charge on his raised fists and a wondrous sensation seemed to be coursing through to him.

    It was Xiang Li;

    She was smiling serenely at him while holding onto his raised fist with her two gentle hands. "My lord, do not be mad. Let Xiang Li reasons with him first. You know that you can''t bash a spirit."

    Ji Yuan frowned at her answer but then his eyes were popping on Xiang Li''s bosoms because he had realized that Xiang Li had materialized into her physical form to catch hold of his raised fists.

    At the same time, he had also noticed that Fairy Anyang was also in her physical body.<sub> </sub>

    What the heck? Anyang can materialize into¡­erm¡­a material form too¡­

    He began to gulp with dry throat as he stared at the two alluring vixen beauties that were swaying left and right of him.

    "Hmph!" It was Xiang Li that had raised her fist this time. "Just who do you think you''re by calling my Big Brother as a mere celestial? I am the one that has asked Sister Anyang to join me in my harem."

    The trial spirit above suddenly stammered, "Who¡­are¡­you¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Old Fart! You''re so funny. I''m the one that is asking who you''re and yet you''re asking me?"

    Ji Yuan had a sudden sheepish look when he realized that Xiang Li had been copying him, "Erm, Xiang Li, it is not nice to call someone like this¡­"

    He mentally hit his head to remind himself to be more cultured in the future when Xiang Li is around. But the problem is, he doesn''t really know if Xiang Li is around or not most of the time.

    The trial spirit stammered, "This¡­old fart¡­is Master Dai¡­Great Beyond Spirit¡­I didn''t know that you''re here¡­."

    "You know the Great Beyond Spirit can strip you of your spirit power if you displease her?" Fairy Anyang giggled.

    "I do?" Xiang Li blinked her eyes and asked.

    Trial Spirit Master Dai echoed weakly, "We can surely talk things over nicely¡­"

    "Then turn my immortal sword¡­my lord I mean¡­into a saintly sword. 100%" Fairy Anyang stared coldly.

    Trial Spirit Master Dai  protested immediately, "From 1% to 100%...that profound energies that is needed will be a million times and not a 100 times¡­it is exponential¡­this will expend all the profound energies for the rest of the cultivators¡­"

    "You know that I''m an S Rank Spirit too and I know you can manage it. Moreover my lord Ji Yuan is the first cultivator to win the top trial here. You have not even used a single of your artefact profound energies yet and you''reining already?"

    Trial Spirit Master Dai echoed weakly, "I''m notining¡­"

    "Then do it!" Fairy Anyang and Xiang Li chorused loudly at the same time as they raised their fists in the air.

    "Yes, yes¡­I do it right now¡­." Trial Spirit Master Dai stammered immediately.

    Ji Yuan hadpletely taken a back seat as he watched the beautiful backs of his two beautiful spirit consorts.

    Wow. They are so fierce¡­

    But he soon found his heart beating very fast as he stared at their butts at the same time and gulped¡­maybe time to bang them¡­no wait¡­Xiang Li is his sister¡­no she is his spirit consort now and so¡­.

    All of a sudden a bright light struck him, blinding him¡­.

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "I swear my eyes are clean! Forgive me Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    Everyone: ???

    Trial Spirit Master Dai panicky said, "Master Ji Yuan, you should take out your immortal sword to shower in the golden light. I didn''t hurt you, did I?"

    Ji Yuan had a sheepish look when he realized he was not getting any retributions from Xiang Li. "Oh haha¡­I was just teasing everyone here. You know, just to lighten the mood. Haha¡­."

    Everyone: ???

 Chapter 387 The 6th Level

    Ji Yuan had materialized in the middle of nowhere where he was being surrounded by lofty tall mountains and an imposing white citadel in front of him.

    He was in awe as he thought; is this the 6th level?

    This white citadel was as huge that he looked like a tiny ant and after staring at it briefly, he realized that the white citadel looked like the head of the Great God Pangu and was an exact copy of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    He found himselfnding softly on one of the many golden pavements that were leading to the white citadel and saw that there were hundreds of cultivators appearing every now and then.

    All of them were making their way toward the white citadel that stood treacherous on the highest and steepest slope.

    From below, his sharp eyes could see dozens of cultivators slipping down from the top the treacherous slopes almost all the time.

    He was immediately wary.

    That was because cultivators do not usually lose their bnce for no reasons especially the saint cultivators.

    There must be hidden forces, strong winds or traps along the way.

    But he was also delighted andughed aloud.

    It is because he was among the top 10% of the saint cultivators that has made it to the 6th level!

    From this point onward, his challengers will be the elites and prodigies of the Celestial Realm.

    And Yun Chi of course.

    Or rather the Death God Mingwang.

    Ji Yuan had actually just obtained his second saintly divine sword and had just emerged out of the spatial space.

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "My lord!"

    Ji Yuan turned around andughed again.

    It was because Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all materializing one after another behind him.

    Shui Xisi had suddenly run forward to pinch Ji Yuan on his chest, "Ji Yuan,e on and tell me what you got for your S Rank Trial Reward! I''m really interested to know!"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled too, "My lord, I hope you don''t make us too envious of you."

    "He has too many surprises for us already that this time I definitely won''t be surprised by him anymore." Ling Feiyueughed gently.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "But if I can surprise all of you? Will you all jump into my bed together?"

    ? Feng Minyue gasped as she took a step a back, "Shameless!!!"

    Yu Jingjing and Little Princess said at the same time, "Shameless indeed!"

    But Shui Xisiughed as she pulled Ji Yuan to face everyone, "Wait sisters. What if he can''t surprise all of us? You all know it is going to please all of us at the same time right?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she snapped her fingers, "Right!"

    Then she got took a mischievous look at Little Princess and Shui Xisi, "So¡­"

    "So if he can''t please all of us then we shall parade him naked on the streets!" Shui Xisi and Little Princessughed at the same time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to mutter weakly, "Why is it always the three of you that always have the nastiest idea? Can''t you more like Qianfeng, Jingjing and Maiden Feng Minyue instead?"<sub> </sub>

    "Actually, I think that isn''t enough. We should parade him naked in front of all the cultivators in this ce." Bai Qianfeng suddenly made a yful wink.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; Qianfeng you¡­

    "I do agree with Sister Qianfeng." Yu Jingjing giggled.

    Feng Minyue was also smiling, "It isn''t easy to get all of us into your bed and that is only your wistful thoughts."

    Shui Xisi sighed softly, "Someone here is so eager to surprise us but he is a coward not to ept our challenge. What a pity! Why don''t we call him the Boastful Saint of the Hot Air instead?"

    "Agree!" The other maidens nodded.

    "Hahaha." Ji Yuanughed aloud. "That is where you are all wrong. Haha. I shall take the challenge and surprise all of you!"

    Ling Feiyueughed gently, "Look at Ji Yuan. He is still trying to retain his manly pride¡­"

    "He never learns¡­"

    "Nothing will surprise me anymore¡­"

    "It is just a reward. There is no need to be so mysterious to bait us. We won''t fall for it¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly taken out his new saintly divine sword. "Behold! Watch in awe and burn with envy. This is my newly saintly divine sword¡­."

    "Let''s go, it is getting a littlete now¡­"

    "We should investigate that white citadel¡­it is probably our next trial objective¡­"

    "Yes sure¡­"

    "Let''s hurry¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is so superficial¡­"

    "It is merely only a saint sword¡­nothing special at all¡­"

    "Try harder next time¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was stunned; they are all not impressed?! This is a saint sword¡­

    Fairy Anyang chuckled to Ji Yuan in his soul sea, "These maidens have a much higher state of divinity than my lord¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was still muttering; this is impossible. This is impossible¡­

    All the maidens had walked past Ji Yuan with a nonchnt look but secretly they were all cursing Ji Yuan for his good luck and were all stunned that Ji Yuan got another impossible to obtain saint sword.

    This type of good fortune will never go to them and they were all envious!

    It took them a lot of yacting and all their mental fortitude to pretend to be nonchnt. Luckily as saintesses, they still have their amount of emotionless self-control especially when the bet was to bed all of them and especially when they had just ridiculed Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 388 The Confession

    The steep slopes of the white citadel were not the lofty peaks itself as Ji Yuan soon discovered the hard way.

    It was actually hundreds of thick metallic chains that were chained to the white citadel and each chain was as tens of miles long!

    Because it was covered with thick snow and ice, it looked like a lofty peak from afar.

    And now Ji Yuan and his party were now climbing onto the thick chains carefully.

    The icy winds were blowing furiously above.

    One wrong move, they will slip!

    One slip, they will fall down hundreds of miles below!

    And the efforts for the past several days will be in vain!

    Yes, the white citadel was further andrger than they had thought; they had indeed been climbing for the past several days.

    Ji Yuan was cursing under his breath, "Why are there so many cultivators around?"

    He had literally seen thousands of them already.

    "That is because there is only one main trial on the 6th level." Shui Xisi pointed out. "This is already the ultimate trial where all the worlds converged."

    "Ji Yuan!" Ling Feiyue said with great exasperation. "Can you please stop doing that?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he threw a shooting profound iceball down to hit the face of a cultivator far below, provoking an angry malevolent outburst from below.

    "Did you do that on purpose?!! What the heck?!"

    Ling Feiyue lifted her fingers to point in the direction of the cultivator below. "That. And you''ve already cause more than a dozen cultivators to fall below already."

    Yu Jingjing muttered mindlessly, "This is an utterly disgraceful act, you know."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "I don''t see anything wrong with this. It is not like they will die or something. They are all golden saints anyway. You mean, they can''t even dodge my projectile attack? It is only a small tickle to their face and lighter than even the icy breezes here and they can''t take it?!"

    He had a good reason for doing so.

    It was because the icy profound breezes here were capable of blowing off the maidens'' curtain veils and even their face veils. That was why they were not wearing any right now.

    And Ji Yuan could see the hundreds of lecherous golden eyes all around him as he was making his way on the huge chains toward the white citadel.

    The cultivator below Ji Yuan was now shouting furiously as he disyed his fighting profound aura, "If you want to fight, so shall it be! I shall teach you who the grand-daddy is!"

    Ji Yuan also shouted back as he disyed his fighting profound aura and his two saintly divine swords. "I am YOUR GRAND-DADDY¡­"

    But barely had he muttered out his words, the other cultivator had turned ashen when he saw the two saintly divine swords shing in front of him and had taken the initiative to jump down from the chains to the depths below.

    The other cultivator was thinking panicky; Oh shit! I''ve offended a great figure! I''ve better run first. It is better to lose some face than lose one own life¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "This cultivator is a little spineless. Ji Yuan has not even moved yet¡­"

    "Agree¡­" Little Princess nodded weakly.

    "Ji Yuan is my hero." Yu Jingjing shed an adoringly look at Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue reminded her, "What Ji Yuan did, is wrong. Don''t give him that look. Give him an angry look instead."

    "Give him a smoldering gaze..." Little Princess suggested.

    "Cold intense stare..." Shui Xisi giggled.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You all really think I am deaf, do you¡­"

    Shui Xisi also said, "He thinks he is the only blessed cultivator around but there is actually countless number of equally blessed cultivators around too. One day, he will know the hard truths¡­"

    Little Princess was also saying, "There is one cultivator in our party that keeps taking our luck. Look at our reward for thetest S Trial and you will know¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had told them how he had obtained the second saintly divine sword by cannibalizing all the other artefect profound energies in the trial.<sub> </sub>

    He mutterered silently; sometimes you can''t be too honest with them lest they use it against you....

    All of a sudden there was a soft gasp that hade from Feng Minyue and she had identally slipped.

    Just as she was reacting to regain her bnce, a dark shadow had shed past and had gripped her strongly in her slender waist; it was Ji Yuan.

    Feng Minyue gasped softly when she saw that it was Ji Yuan.

    There was a hint of flush on her as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan with her beautiful chiseled face.

    "Maiden Feng Minyue, are you alright?" Ji Yuan asked breathlessly.

    Feng Minyue quickly regained her sense and said, "Thank you¡­you can let go of me now."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Right¡­" But he was still holding onto her waist.

    "How sweet!" Shui Xisi giggled. "But howe you''re still holding onto her?"

    "Yeah, why?" The other maidens chorused.

    Ji Yuan coolly replied as he looked sentimentally into Feng Minyue''s eyes, "There is something that I need to tell Maiden Feng for the longest time and I''m not letting go until I''ve finished it."

    Feng Minyue: ???

    All the other maidens: ???

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he continued to look at Feng Minyue, "I don''t know how many times I''ve screwed up my chances with you but in my heart, I''ve actually wanted to court you and to make you as my consort. I know that in your heart, you are probably despising me as a lecherous man but I am not. The reason why I am telling you is that I keep screwing up no matter how hard I''ve tried to gain your heart that there are nothing but a bad aftertaste."

    Feng Minyue averted her eyes shyly, "You can let go of me now."

    Ji Yuan quietly loosened his grip with a heavy sigh¡­

    This is in rejection¡­

    The truth hurts¡­

    Feng Minyue quietly said, "What do you mean by you actually want to court me. So in the end, you''ve decided against trying?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "If you don''t try, how do you know you won''t seed?" Feng Minyue shyly smiled all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan was startled and he gasped aloud.

    And so did the other maidens; it is as though they are all about to witness something epic that is about to happen.

    "Are you really such a baboon?" Feng Minyue looked at Ji Yuan with bleary eyes. "At that time on the 4th level S Trial, I''ve already fallen in love and have given you my first kiss. What are waiting for? I don''t want you to be a gentleman. I want you to be the Romantic Cultivator Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan stammered, "But¡­you say don''t get you wrong that day¡­"

    Feng Minyue hummed softly, "I''ve never expected you to be so brilliant and get that wrong. Do you expect me to tell you that I love you first instead?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned.

    He had respected Feng Minyue a lot in his heart and hence, he had killed all his inner demons including Xiang Li''s ranting about the kiss.

    Turn out, he was too cautious and was too dumbass.

    But it was never toote still.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly seized Feng Minyue in his arms and he was kissing her lips, "Maiden Feng, I love you¡­"

    And the two of them were suddenly exchanging passionate kisses with one another¡­

    The hearts of both Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue were now felt with dness as they sunk into each other embrace; they were all waiting for this moment for the longest time...

    All the other maidens were too stunned to react by the sudden event that was happening in front of them that they forgot that they were in the middle of a treacherous huge chain that was as slippery as ice.

    Even the strong profound winds that were generating around them could not stop them from staring at the two couple.

    Finally Bai Qianfeng was the first to react as she looked at Shui Xisi, "I''m afraid that you are the only leftover in this party."

    Shui Xisi protested immediately, "Who says! Ji Yuan says he is going to marry me, so¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly smiling, "I''ve thought so that Maiden Feng likes Ji Yuan too but I''ve never expect for them to profess their love in this manner¡­"

 Chapter 389 An Old Enemy/ Friend

    One dayter Ji Yuan and his party had entered the white citadel.

    The hallway of the white citadel was huge and imposing.

    Ji Yuan could see thousands of cultivators along the numerous hallways and they seemed to be debating.

    Several spirit entities had immediately surrounded them and said to them, "Please follow us!"

    And soon they began to follow the spirit entities until they were in the middle of a golden hall.

    Thousands of cultivators were seen meditating behind an invisible golden wall at the end of the golden hall.

    The spirit entities exined, "These cultivators are taking their trials now. You may choose to take the trial at the convenient timing."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What trial are they taking?"

    He had echoed the thoughts of the maidens as well.

    The spirit entities replied, "The right to enter the Pangu Citadel naturally. Those who havepleted the trial will be allowed inside. Those meditating right now are those that are attempting it and you can see their progress."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes at the thousands of wandering cultivators all over the open space tforms, "Don''t tell me that all these cultivators here are so nosy parkers and why aren''t they taking the trial?"

    The spirit entities chuckled, "Some may have already taken the trial and had failed. So they may be resting first before undertaking the trial again or they are exchanging tips with one another."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "You can retake the trial?"

    The spirit entitiesughed, "You can retake it unlimited times until you''ve seed."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t know if this is a good news or a bad news. It sounds too good to be true¡­"

    Feng Minyue nodded, "Usually it will be very hard toplete if you are able to attempt so many times."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan sharp eyes spotted Mo Bei below the hall. "Senior Mo Bei is also here¡­"

    Mo Bei had also spotted him and he wasughing loud below, "Maiden Feng, Maiden Yu. Hahaha¡­it is so good to see you in this ce¡­"

    And Mo Bei quickly lifted the edge of his robe as he shouted to the cultivators in the hallway, "Out of my way! Out of my way!"

    At the same time he was shouting, "Wait there for me. I''m going! Give me like 15 minutes¡­this ce is so freakingrge and intertwining¡­"

    <o>,m Ji Yuan frowned immediately; Did he just leave me out of his greetings?!</o>

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frozen on the spot.

    This included the rest of the maidens!

    That was because a dark malevolent figure was suddenly seen in the same hall ¨C the Death God Mingwang!

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly to them, "I''ve told you that we will meet again very soon. Why, you''re not pleased to see me?"

    Ji Yuan grinned; on the contrary, I''m very pleased to see you again so soon, Yun Chi¡­

    Then the Death God Mingwang pointed at Bai Qianfeng, "I''ve believed that I have already given you more than sufficient time to think. If you don''t want Ji Yuan to die thenes with me and I will show him mercy¡­"

    "I don''t need you to show any mercy toward me." Ji Yuan interrupted weakly.

    Bai Qianfeng thought that Ji Yuan was going to confront the Death God Mingwang immediately so she quickly caught hold of his arm, "My lord. You''re not the Death God Mingwang''s match. But don''t worry, your Qianfeng will never consider going with your enemy. Even death will not part us. I''m already prepared to die together with you."

    "Sister Qianfeng, we will follow you as well!" The other five maidens had all raised their divine swords and chorused at the same time.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped as she turned to look at the other five maidens with a touched heart. "Everyone¡­"

    "Even if the whole lot of you adds together, I will still be able to massacre all of you without revealing my deste strength." The Death God Mingwang scorned coldly as a dark scythe was immediately brandished.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Easy everyone."

    Then he turned to look intently at the Death God Mingwang, "Do you agree that even if we want to fight, we should only fight once we are inside the inner citadel than here?"

    "No, I don''t agree." The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly. "Today, Bai Qianfeng has toe with me whether she is willing or not. As for you, it will depend on my mood if I want to kill you or not. Why don''t you write down yourst will then?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a grin, "I am not going to write down anyst will because I know that you won''t be able to kill me today."<sub> </sub>

    The Death God Mingwang: ¡­

    "You have better don''t test my patience. Within 100 strokes, I will be able to floor all of you down and take away Bai Qianfeng¡­"

    "I believe you." Ji Yuan interrupted with a soft sigh. "But can we have a private word in that corner for a while?"

    Bai Qianfeng panicky said, "My lord, don''t! If you''re alone then we may not be able to render aid to you in a timely manner¡­"

    Ling Feiyue and the other maidens were all panicky saying as well, "That''s right. It is far too dangerous. Together we can all make a stand¡­"

    Yu Jingjing added, "Senior Mo Bei is on his way up now. If we can endure the fight until hees, maybe we can have a fighting chance. And there are hundreds of cultivators around too¡­"

    All the maidens were trying to persuade Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan seemed to ignore them as he asked the Death God Mingwang, "Why? You dare not? Are you afraid that my words alone will be able to defeat you?"

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly, "This is your chance to speak to your Bai Qianfeng for the veryst time and you want to talk to me? Hmph! So be it and make it quick."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he walked to the corner and waited for the Death God Mingwang to walk over to him.

    "Hmph! I''m here now. If you have any craps to say, just say it." The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Actually, you don''t have to agree to my request. Is it because you''re hesitating to kill me?"

    The Death God Mingwang: ???

    Ji Yuan sighed, "Let me tell you a story first."

    The Death God Mingwang: ???

    Ji Yuan continued, "I have a maiden that love me and I love her as well. But I don''t think I will be able to see her again. Do you know what her wish is? Her one and only wish?"

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "She makes me sworn an oath to love her even if we are enemies in the future. Why do you think she will do it? Because she is already my enemy from the day that we''ve met."

    All of a sudden the Dearth God Mingwang was trembling lightly¡­

    Ji Yuan had spoken out her innermost heart demons...

    "But so what if she is the enemy? I''ve also made an oath in front of her to take her as my consort and to love her forever." Ji Yuanmented loudly. "I''ve not forgotten about our promises but do you think she has forgotten about it?"

    The Death God Mingwang answered with a trembling voice, "Why do you ask me for? Why don''t you go ask her¡­"

    "Because you are her. I have long known you are Yun Chi." Ji Yuan interrupted quietly.

    The Death God Mingwang gasped as she took a step backward¡­

    He knows who I am already?!

    Ji Yuan continued, "Because I know that you''re Yun Chi, I know that you won''ty your fingers on me. But why are you taking Qianfeng away from me? Qianfeng and I are inseparable, just like we are inseparable."

    "Yun Chi, I love you. Come with me¡­"

    But Yun Chi did not reply to him and instead she had marched off while saying to a nearby spirit entity, "I''m taking the entrance trial now. Prepare the portal for me."

    As she entered the portal, she was secretly weeping!

    Ji Yuan, you know who I am but you still love me?! Are you an idiot?!

    Ji Yuan was left stunned on the spot as he muttered silently, "Yun Chi¡­"

    But for the rest of the maidens, they were all equally surprised because the Death God Mingwang had actually walked away without a word!

    They were immediately curious what Ji Yuan had said to the Death God Mingwang?

    "Yo Junior Ji Yuan!" Mo Bei hastily shouted as he waved his hands when he had entered the great hall.

    At the same time he was stroking his long beard as he drooled at Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue. "Hehee¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Senior Mo Bei¡­"

 Chapter 390 The 6th Level Trial

    When Ji Yuan saw Mo Bei, he was grinning immediately; it was because he had found his ''scapegoat''.

    Heughed, "Senior Mo Bei¡­"

    "Ji Yuan! My lord!" The six maidens interrupted him by surrounding him and asking him, "What did you say to the Death God Mingwang? Why did he leave all of a sudden? What magic did you do?!"

    They were extremely intrigued because it did not make any sense to them why would the Death God Mingwang suddenly leave just like this?

    Ji Yuan of course could not tell them that the Death God Mingwang is actually Yun Chi and that she had left because he had surprised her by revealing that he had long known of her identity.

    Ji Yuan coolly said, "It is all because of Mo Bei. I told the Death God Mingwang that the most powerful cultivator from the Mo n is here. If he is wise enough, he has better fled while he has the time."

    When Mo Bei heard Ji Yuan, heughed. "Of course I am the most powerful cultivator in the Mo n, beside my patriarch Diviner Mo Ming. Who is this Death God Mingwang anyway? Is his background more powerful than my Mo n? Hahahaha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue turned to Mo Bei to smile gently, "You''re in luck. This Death God Mingwang is merely a 9th realm immortal cultivator. Thanks to you, we just got ourselves out of an otherwise tricky situation."

    Mo Beiughed weakly, "You must be joking with me, am I right? There are no immortals here."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled coldly, "You''ve better believed it."

    Yu Jingjing giggled, "That''s right. You''ve better believe it."

    Mo Bei turned to smile bitterly at Ji Yuan, "Junior, your maidens seem to be on a humorous side today."

    JI Yuanughed, "They are not joking. It is because this Death God Mingwang is an immortal cultivator that is being sent by the Evil Cultivation Pce here. He is extremely formidable. Luckily I am able to use your name to scare him away. But I am afraid that he will be hunting you next instead of me because I''ve told him that Senior Mo Ming dares him to challenge the Mo n first."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei muttered weakly, "Are you really the great hero that Diviner Mo Ming has said¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I''ve thought that you said I don''t look like a great hero."

    Mo Bei continued to mutter bitterly, "Junior, I suppose you''re joking with me, am I right? Can you be more serious this time? You will lose your creditability in front of the maidens. Can you imagine what they will think of you in the future? Surely you don''t want them to think that you''re a liar in their hearts, do you?"

    Ji Yuan turned to the six maidens to grin, "Senior Mo Bei thinks that I am joking that the Death God Mingwang is an immortal cultivator. What do you think?"

    "Ji Yuan is always serious!" Ling Feiyue chuckled.

    Ji Yuan chuckled at Ling Feiyue''s smart remarks. He knew that she was lying in front of him but he did not mind her sarcastic wipe at him because he truly loved Feiyue a lot and they had been through a lot together. Lots of fun and intimate sharing together in fact.

    He really could not imagine if Ling Feiyue was not around topany him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; the two of them had been together for such a long time on a daily basis that he could not imagine being without her.

    "You mean you don''t believe my lord?" Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng growled at the same time.

    Yu Jingjing was giggling, "Ji Yuan will never lie to us."

    Shui Xisi winked at Mo Bei, "The Death God Mingwang is really a 9th realm cultivator. Thankfully, you''re around."

    Feng Minyue said, "We thank Senior Mo Bei''s aid and your heroism..."

    Shui Xisi quickly added, "I will drop you some extra flowers on your death anniversary date¡­"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly changed topic by asking, "What is this trial all about? Howe you are wandering all over the outer citadel rather than partaking in the trial?"

    Mo Bei looked a little sheepish before he answered, "This trial is really not easy at all. I''ve failed it three times."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan''s interest was piqued immediately. "Tell me about it."

    Mo Bei bitterly said, "Why don''t you touch that ck stele over there and you will know?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "With my senior around here, do I even need to rack my brains to decipher any profound writing? Haha¡­"

    Mo Bei frowned, "You''re really¡­undeserving to be a great saint with yourziness."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I don''t even know how I have be a great saint. Haha."

    This was the truth.<sub> </sub>

    When he had said that, all the other maidens behind him were all looking sheepish and cursing him secretly; they had all been cultivating very hard yet Ji Yuan was able to be a great saint from an initial saint in less than two years. This does not make any sense to them at all!

    He had virtually skipped several centuries of hard work and he had no rich spiritual mountains to back his cultivation!

    But secretly they all knew that it must be Xiang Li that had been aiding Ji Yuan because the Goddess'' Tear is the only profound artefact that can perform a miracle.

    It is just that they cannot believe that a mostly useless Xiang Li and azy Ji Yuan would be able to advance together so rapidly.

    Ji Yuan now had two sword spirits, two saintly swords, a ninth rank spirit animus and he had evenpleted the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    They just could not believe that Ji Yuan would be this strong now.

    Mo Bei said, "In order to enter the inner citadel, we need to obtain the pure spiritual force of the lower mortal realm first. How can this be an easy task?"

    Ji Yuan asked, not understanding. "This really doesn''t sound too hard. Or is the spiritual force in the lower mortal realm really hard to obtain?"

    Mo Bei frowned, "This isn''t hard? Do you know that only the inner core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the celestial n are able to ess the secret spiritual veins of the celestial ns. This is the same here. No one will allow you to even ess the spiritual veins in the first ce."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "We are golden celestials. Surely we can just storm into the celestial n¡­"

    Mo Bei immediately knocked Ji Yuan''s head, "Idiot! If I can do that long ago, will I still be around here?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Well, I''ve thought that you''re a gentleman."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei solemnly replied, "Indeed I am. That''s why I''ve failed the trial."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Mo Bei continued, "This trial is a little tricky. Firstly, your profound strength will be sealed and you will be a just an ordinary mortal cultivator."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "This already sounds very bad to me."

    "Secondly, you''re not allowed to kill anyone while in the lower mortal realm or you will fail the trial." Mo Bei continued.

    "Thirdly, while you are allowed to retake the trial any number of times but you''re not allowed to kill a single person or else you won''t be able to retake the trial and you will be struck here."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "This doesn''t sound like a big problem."

    Mo Bei frowned as he patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder, "Junior, you''re too young, too simple. You have no idea how infuriating the mortal cultivators are and sometimes you feel like killing them."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Don''t tell me you''ve killed one already?"

    Mo Bei began tough weakly, "Of course not! I''m an orthodox cultivator. Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to the maidens to say, "I guess that this is the time for us to undertake our next trial. Are you all ready?"

    All the maidens answered Ji Yuan, "We are all ready anytime!"

    Mo Bei muttered, "Good luck to you then."

    The spirit entities nearby echoed, "Enter the golden portal. Please be seated at the upper halls in your meditation pose and when the golden light shines upon you, the trial will starts. It is advisable to touch the ck stele first to learn more about the nature of the trial first."

    Ji Yuan and his party quickly touched the ck stele before entering the golden portal; it is exactly what Mo Bei had told them. This trial will take them to the lower mortal realm for a trial to extract the spiritual veins.

    As Ji Yuan entered the golden portal, he found himself appearing on a small floating tform and he had also spotted the Death God Mingwang sitting on one of the floating discs above him.

    Yun Chi was now being surrounded by a golden halo and it means that the trial had already started for her.

    At the same time the other maidens had all found themselves in a small floating tform away from each other.

    They quietly nodded to each other as they began to seat themselves.

    They knew that they were being surrounded by an invisible profound barrier that prevent sounds from beingmunicated lest they disturb the thousands of cultivators that were floating on the discs who were all taking their trials.

 Chapter 391 This Is The Lower Mortal Realm? (1)

    After Ji Yuan had entered a meditation trance, he soon found himself on a standing on top of a serene mountain and in front of them were many pagodas.

    He was immediately excited, "I am in the lower mortal now? Wakaka."

    ording to the ck stele, he was allowed to end this trial anytime by severing his profound strength in his heart beat. To the others, he may be dead but in actuality, this body was only a temporary body that was given to him while he was in the lower mortal realm.

    Ji Yuan was not nervous about the trial despite being warned by Mo Bei; it is because he has a good mentality when ites to facing a trial. To him, it is always a new experience and he is only too eager to explore more.

    The cultivators may only see the trials as something to be ovee but to Ji Yuan, he is someone that likes to enjoy the progress.

    Even Xiang Li was excited because she could feel Ji Yuan''s excited vibes. "Woot! We''re in the mortal realm now!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "We are going to have a lot of fun in this ce."

    Fairy Anyang warned him weakly, "My lord, you''ve better focused on oveing the trial rather than having fun. Failing the trail will cost you all the fun."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­I''ve never been to the lower mortal realm. We''re going to see the innds and the oceans. Muhaha¡­."

    Xiang Li frowned as she looked around Ji Yuan from inside his soul sea, "Erm, Big Brother. We seem to be surrounded by the mountains. Where are the oceans and the innds?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he muttered weakly, "Did we get send to the wrong ce¡­"

    "Hey, you over there. Why are you staring in the air like an idiot? Are you lost?" Several shouts interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan looked up and saw several men in a Taoist robe.

    He smiled bitterly before shouting, "I am indeed lost. Where am I?"

    A man hummed coldly, "You are now at the Primeval Mountains the consecrated ground of the True Origin Celestial Sect, one of the seven most powerful celestial ns. Are you ignorant or not? It seems that youck spiritual roots to even be a cultivator of the way here¡­"

    Another man interrupted, "Since he is already here, this means that he is destined to be a cultivator. Don''t be too harsh on him. Maybe he is too tired and that is why. Or maybe he is too excited to have finally found his way up. We should give him a little credit."

    The same man turned Ji Yuan to say, "I am Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Wu Jinhua. If we are destined to be prot¨¦g¨¦s of the same celestial n then we will surely meet again."

    Then he pointed to a direction, "All you have to do is to travel up this path and you will reach the outer pces of the True Origin Celestial Sect in no time."

    Ji Yuanughed as he raised his hands to bow politely, "I thank you seniors for guiding my way. Haha."

    All of a sudden Wu Jinhua raised his sword and pointed at Ji Yuan, "Wait a minute! Your eyes! Why do you have golden eyes?! Are you a demonic cultivator?!"

    When he had said that the other four mortal cultivators had all unsheathed their swords and were pointing at Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared at them nkly; he had forgotten that he may look a little special with his golden eyes.

    He tried to exercise his profound strength and was shocked that he could only exercise it to the fourth realm level.

    He almost vomited blood!

    He could hear Mo Bei''s mockingughter; I told you so!

    His golden celestial profound strength hadpletely been suppressed and now he was only like the strongest mortal cultivator here.

    Although it did not affect his recovery and his true regeneration ability but it means that he would have a problem wielding even his own divine swords¡­

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I am actually not a demonic cultivator. Please hear me out¡­"

    "Rubbish!" All five cultivators shouted at the same time and they were all leaping around him in a sword formation now!

    "Leave him alone." A quiet voice said out of the blue.

    Ji Yuan and everyone looked up to see an extraordinary beautiful maiden appearing on top of them.

    This extraordinary beautiful maiden was dressed in elegantly in a Taoist robe as well, simr to what the other five men were wearing.<sub> </sub>

    When the five men saw her, they immediately greeted respectfully. "Our respects to Elder Qiu Xiuyu."

    The extraordinary beautiful maiden took a nonchnt nce at Ji Yuan before she said, "He doesn''t look like a demonic cultivator. He seems to have a respectful celestial background."

    Wu Jinhua asked, "He is one of us?!"

    Qiu Xiuyu pointed at Ji Yuan''s golden robe, "This robe of his must be a profound treasure. I''ve never seen anything like this before."

    Ji Yuan was sudden grinning; of course. I can''t even afford this robe myself. It is all thanks to the Golden Prince Hua Yingxiong. Haha.

    "Moreover, it is said that if we are able to cultivate to the Ascend Realm, our eyes can turn golden and we will be able to ascend to the Celestial Realm. Since this little fellow here already has golden eyes, maybe it means that he has the affinity." Qiu Xiuyu continued nonchntly.

    Ji Yuan frowned; I am a little fellow? I am older than anyone of you here. I am your grand-daddy!

    But he was also appraising this Elder Qiu Xiuyu at the same time.

    With a single look, he had already gauged her cultivation realm level; she is at the fourth cultivation realm and is an Immortal Celestial.

    Not bad, he thought. She is merely a realm to be a golden celestial. Maybe she will be able to ascend to the Celestial Realm in the future.

    Qiu Xiuyu said nonchntly to Ji Yuan, "You may go now."

    Ji Yuan answered, "Well thanks for your guidance. I am Ji¡­"

    Before he could announce his name, she had walked away!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He merely waved his hands to the other five cultivators, "Oh well, seniors. See you in the future! Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, you seem to have a sudden motivation now after seeing that Elder Qiu Xiuyu."

    Fairy Anyang hummed softly, "He is probably thinking of banging his new elder right now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly protested, "I am merely thinking of befriending her and to repay her for intervening to help me earlier. Don''t get the wrong idea."

    Fairy Anyang giggled as she winked at Xiang Li, "Why is that I can already sense that you are already thinking of banging your new elder in your soul sea now. You mean you are thinking of repaying her with your body?"

    Ji Yuan stammered weakly, "Nonsense! No such things!"

    -

    -

    -

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu was quietly watching Ji Yuan as he disappeared into the mountain trails.

    She had a flushed look on her countenance; I''ve never seen such a beautiful man. His eyes are too mesmerizing. What am I thinking? I''ve sworn to dedicate myself to cultivation. One day I will join my grand patriarch in ascending to the Celestial Realm. All these are just fleeting moments that I should not have any lingering with¡­

    Moreover, although I look young but I am already several centuries old. I will be aughing stock if I am together with such a young man¡­

 Chapter 392 This Is The Lower Mortal Realm? (2)

    When Ji Yuan had reached the heaven gate of the True Origin Celestial Sect, there were already thousands of people crowding along the steep steps.

    And they all rudely tell Ji Yuan, "Hey you, queue up please!"

    By now Ji Yuan had already decided to use his Golden Eye Mystic Skill to conceal his golden eyes. It was a trick that he had first used when he had first emerged from his seventh realm reclusion and a profound skill that he had stolen from Little Princess.

    He had decided that his golden eyes were too prominent to be of any use to him.

    After all he had a mission and that was to obtain the spiritual veins of the celestial n that he was being assigned to so that he could use it to open the gates of the inner Pangu Citadel.

    He soon found out that every twenty years, the True Origin Celestial Sect will open its celestial gates to wee the wannabe cultivators.

    And that was why there were so many thousands of these wannabe cultivators here; they are all interested to cultivate the way to obtain profound powers or to seek immortality.

    He soon saw that there was a testing stone in front of the heaven gate where the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the True Origin Celestial Sect were using it to test the spiritual potential of the wannabe cultivators.

    Naturally when it was Ji Yuan''s turn to take his turn at the testing stone, he was naturally full of confidence. After all, he was really a peaked great saint in the Celestial Realm!

    And when he was using his animus spirit, he was naturally an eighth realm cultivator without any equal.

    Haha, this is too easy¡­

    "You''ve no spiritual roots and you''ve failed your spiritual potential test." The cultivator in charge of testing Ji Yuan said casually after examining the testing stone that failed to light up.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is IMPOSSIBLE, IMPOSSIBLE!!!

    What is going on?!

    "Next." The cultivator in charge raised his voice to shout to the next candidate behind Ji Yuan to step forward.

    "No wait!" This must be a mistake!" Ji Yuan protested immediately. "This testing stone must be a bloody fake!"

    Even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were protesting at the same time, "That''s right!"

    As Ji Yuan was being dragged along, he was frowning at the same time. It was because he had suddenly realized that this was not because the testing stone was fake but it was too inferior to sense his golden profound strength.

    Ji Yuan was naturally a golden celestial and he had undergone his life and death transformation to be a true celestial. Therefore his profound strength is different from the profound strength of the mortal cultivators.

    Naturally this testing stone was not able to detect his golden profound strength.

    He had suddenly realized this.

    So he shouted panicky, "Wait, wait! This testing stone cannot detect my awesomeness¡­"

    "Let him go." An elegant voice said.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan looked up and saw that it was Elder Qiu Xiuyu again.

    It is her?

    The many cultivators quickly greeted their elder Qiu Xiuyu while the thousands of cultivators nearby were all awestruck by her beautiful appearance.

    She was like an astonishing beautiful fairy that had suddenly descended upon the mountains and it steeled the hearts of many of the wannabe cultivators to be a cultivator so that they can have another look at her.

    One of the cultivators said politely, "Elder Qiu. This man here has no spiritual roots so we are banishing him away."

    Elder Qiu Xiuyu said gently, "There is more than one way to be a cultivator of the True Origin Celestial Sect. Not all prot¨¦g¨¦s of the True Origin Celestial Sect need to have spiritual roots. Some can still take the schrly path or the alchemist path."

    Many of the cultivators were smiling secretly; cultivators without spiritual roots or profound strength are worse than second rate cultivators. They are third rate and to be despised upon!

    Often these no spiritual root cultivators are lowly servants who serve the needs of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the True Origin Celestial Sect. Even a lowly outer court prot¨¦g¨¦ will be able to bully them!

    Qiu Xiuyu turned to appraise Ji Yuan slowly before she asked, "Where are your golden eyes?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I''ve an ailment. Sometimes my eyes will turn yellow if I am sicky and tired."

    "Oh¡­" Qiu Xiuyu looked a little disappointed.

    But she quickly smiled and asked, "You have three chances to answer a celestial question that I am going to put forth to test your affinity to be a cultivator. So think carefully. If you can even pass even one of the questions then you will be epted as an outer court servant."

    Ji Yuan frowned weakly; Outer court servant?! I am a saint and I have to be an outer yard servant?!

    But he coolly smiled to Qiu Xiuyu because he was a little captivated by her captivating extraordinary beauty and he could tell that she was just trying to help him.

    Qiu Xiuyu said, "Great golden saint is the most powerful celestial cultivator in the Celestial Realm. What is the difference between a normal saint and a great saint?"

    Many of the cultivators were secretlyughing now; how could a country pumpkin like Ji Yuan knows about the cultivation world of the Celestial Realm when he is not even a cultivator yet. All these are forbidden celestial knowledge.

    Ji Yuan pondered briefly before he answered, "There are actually three sses to a golden celestial. The usual golden celestial, the golden supremacy and the golden saint. A great saint is also a golden saint but there is one difference that make them the highest ss of golden celestials and that is that they have ovee their lightning tribtion to reach the upper tier of the golden saint cultivation realm level. A great saint therefore isn''t a typical golden saint and instead they are the elites in the Celestial Realm."

    Qiu Xiuyu was gasping and so were many of the cultivators.

    Ji Yuan had answered the question without stammering and as though it wasmon knowledge to him.

    "So did I answer correctly?" Ji Yuan grinned.

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded slowly before she smiles, "You''ve answered correctly and you will be epted as an outer court servant. You must be very happy today to be epted as a servant of the True Origin Celestial Sect. And you even answer the question correctly on your very first try. You indeed have the affinity to join our sect."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes with bitterness; right¡­I am so happy to be an outer court servant¡­why is it it sounds so forced?

    But he was soon grinning back silently; I will be very happy if I can part your legs and hold your bosoms in my hands¡­

    Now this doesn''t sound so forced anymore...

 Chapter 393 Paying Respect To Grand Patriarch (1)

    Ji Yuan found himself standing with arge number of people that were without any spirit roots.

    He frowned when he saw that half of the group consisted of pretty maidens and another half of the group consisted of ugly men.

    What kind of a selection is this?

    In fact some of the pretty maidens were opening discussing, "Luckily I am pretty enough to be selected by the True Origin Celestial Sect. I am now able to leave poverty to be a servant of the True Origin Celestial Sect."

    "Same here!"

    "I can do anything for the prot¨¦g¨¦s for the True Origin Celestial Sect." Another maiden shyly said. "Maybe one of them will take me as their main consort¡­"

    "I hope for the same too¡­"

    The men were gossiping behind Ji Yuan''s back, "Don''t tell me that he got picked because he has a beautiful look¡­"

    "He is much more handsome than most of the cultivators in the True Origin Celestial Sect¡­"

    "I saw Fairy Qiu Xiuyu testing him personally. Maybe she wants him in her bed¡­"

    "He is nothing but a gigolo¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan soon found himself together with around three thousand new recruits.

    Roughly five hundred of them were the ''chosen'' ones and were to be selected as outer court prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    As for the rest including Ji Yuan, they were the outer court servants.

    One by one, they reported their names and were assigned a temporary number.

    "What is your name?" A mortal cultivator asked Ji Yuan in a nonchnt manner.

    "Ji Yuan."

    The mortal cultivator hastily wrote down his name on a wooden que before saying, "You are number 44044. And you will be assigned to the Purple Abode. Your-in-charge will be Elder Dong."

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had learnt of his number, "Can I change my number?"

    "No!" The mortal cultivator said rudely. "Next!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    <o>,m Ji Yuan: ¡­</o>

    As he left, he was muttering to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "I kinda believe that Senior Mo Bei must have hit someone really very badly and have failed the trial."

    "Even a good temper person like me is finding myself hard to restraint myself."

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "I don''t think that you have a good temper at all if you can be so easily angered by them. My lord, I think that this is a trial to test your patience and your nature."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan turned to ask Fairy Anyang curiously. "You mean this is also part of the trial?"

    Fairy Anyang nodded, "Can you imagine the wounded pride of all the high and lofty cultivators when they have suddenly all be restrained in their cultivation realm here?"

    "Hmph¡­right¡­" Ji Yuan muttered.

    "Therefore this is a trial to test your humble heart. If you don''t imagine yourself as a high and lofty cultivator but a humble seeker, maybe this trial will be much easier." Fairy Anyang smiled.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Sweet Anyang, thank you. Luckily you are here to enlighten me. Yes, you''re right. This is but a trial to test if I will be able to enter the inner gate of the Pangu''s Citadel. I keep thinking that I am a great saint here and I was looking down upon them for looking down upon me."

    Then heughed heartily, "I should pretend instead that I am a lowly cultivator instead and I am here to be a true core prot¨¦g¨¦ in order to ess the spiritual veins of the sect. Then I will be able to ovee this trial."

    But all of a sudden he said, "But do I have the time? From a lowly prot¨¦g¨¦ to a core prot¨¦g¨¦, this may take me years. How do I aplish this in such a short time?"

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "1 year in the Celestial Realm is equivalent to 10 years in the lower mortal realm. Therefore you got roughly 10 months to a year to aplish your goals."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "This still sounds a little short¡­"

    Several cultivators were now gathering everyone now and were shouting, "Now it is the time for you to pay your respect to our grand patriarch!"

    And so, they were all gathered to a grand hall and were told to kowtow in front of a giant statue to show their reverences.

    Inside the grand hall, Ji Yuan could see many high ranking cultivators and he guessed that one of them must be Elder Dong who was ''in-charge'' of him.

    He had also spotted Fairy Qiu Xiuyu inside.<sub> </sub>

    But when he saw the giant statue in front of him, he began to frown immediately.

    No way is he going to kowtow in front of this giant statue!

    It is because he has suddenly recognized Li Ye as the person that is being depicted by the giant statue!

    Li Ye is an Ascended Celestial that he had met during his recent travels and he had made him his elder of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Right now Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin were hiding like a turtle together in the lower Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, ording to the scrying device that he had used to spy upon them recently.

    "Number 44044! Why aren''t you on the ground?!" A cultivator shouted angrily at him.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "No way I am bending my knees to Li Ye."

    Another cultivator shouted furiously, "How dare you address our grand patriarch by his name!"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Li Ye is merely a golden celestial while I am a great golden saint. Do you know that I am a superior golden celestial than Li Ye¡­"

    All of a sudden an old cultivator had shed in front of Ji Yuan and he had raised his fist against Ji Yuan''s face.

    "Insolent fool! This is to teach you a lesson!"

    But all of a sudden he had frozen because Ji Yuan had caught hold of the old cultivator''s fists with his hand and grinned. "You got to try harder than this, old man."

    Several cultivators were shouting panicky, "This Ji Yuan. He dares to raise his hand against Elder Dong who is supposed to be his master. He is a goner now."

    "Erm, you are Elder Dong?" Ji Yuan weakly asked the old cultivator.

    The old cultivator hummed coldly, "Indeed I am your master. For disobedience against our grand patriarch and for raising your hand against me, you deserve two capital punishments."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Come on. Please give me a chance. I am new here."

    Elder Dong shouted, "Who the idiot that pass this idiot here?"

    Elder Qiu Xiuyu had a flushed countenance as she quietly said, "I am the one."

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Elder Qiu Xiuyu was an elder of the inner court and she was also the core prot¨¦g¨¦ of their Grand Patriarch Li Ye. There was a rumor that she may even be the next leader of the True Origin Celestial Sect after Grand Patriarch Li Ye had ascended to the Celestial Realm but she had chosen to let her senior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother be the next leader instead so that she can focus on her own ascension.

    In short, Elder Qiu Xiuyu aka. Fairy Xiuyu has a lofty status in the True Origin Celestial Sect and as an outer court elder, he cannot offend her.

    Ji Yuan was a natural trouble maker so he pointed at Elder Qiu Xiuyu as he grinned, "That idiot there passes me."

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Elder Dong: ¡­

    Fairy Xiuyu: ¡­

    Fairy Xiuyu: ¡­

    Fairy Xiuyu: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered helplessly to Ji Yuan, "My lord! We are already struck in such an awkward situation. Do you have to make it even worse¡­"

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself, "Big Brother just forgotten all about his humble heart."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I can''t help it especially when the person that I am supposed to kowtow is my elder that I''ve appointed. I can kowtow to a beautiful face like my Chengxi but not to a man."

    Fairy Anyang weakly said, "I can already see that you will fail this trial, even before you even start on it."

 Chapter 394 Paying Respect To Grand Patriarch (2)

    Fairy Xiuyu weakly raised her voice to echo in the grand hall, "This young man may be a country pumpkin and he doesn''t know the rule. We should give him a chance."

    Ji Yuan frowned silently; I will be a country pumpkin?!

    Fairy Anyang warned him, "This beautiful sister is trying to help you. You''ve better not screw this one and only chance or you will be out of this trial."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Now I know why Senior Mo Bei had failed his trial three times¡­"

    With great reluctant, Ji Yuan pretended to say. "Who says I am not going to prostrate in front of Grand Patriarch? It is just that I feel that kowtowing isn''t enough to show my sincerity¡­."

    As he said that, he hadin t on the ground to say, "This should be the proper way to show my proper respects."

    But silently he was saying; Li Ye, you don''t mind if I hit you a few times until you prostrate in front of me when we meetter? I know this isn''t your fault but I need to get my infuriating rage out of my heart¡­

    Many of the wannabe cultivators and mortal cultivators were actually cursing Ji Yuan silently; bootlicker¡­

    Fairy Xiuyu said quietly, "He isn''t disrespectful but maybe because this is his first time so he is a little awe of the celestial protocols."

    Elder Dong quickly said, "Right, right."

    He quickly agreed with Elder Qiu Xiuyu because he did not want her or anyone to remind him that he had just called her an idiot for recruiting Number 44044.

    He secretly swore to take ''special care'' of this Ji Yuan after this ceremony for causing him to be in such an awkward position.

    Fairy Xiuyu suddenly turned to the other elders to raise her hands politely, "I have a special request. I will like to make this new recruit my special prot¨¦g¨¦."

    When she had said that, all the elders and all the others were shocked.

    "This¡­"

    "It is not proper¡­"

    "He doesn''t even have any spirit root¡­"

    "What does Elder Xiuyu means by making him a ''special prot¨¦g¨¦''?"

    Even Ji Yuan was startled that this beautiful maiden was going to make him her special prot¨¦g¨¦.

    He began to smile bitterly; surely she isn''t this petty and wants to extract a personal vendetta on me for calling her an idiot. Woman¡­

    But Fairy Xiuyu was actually not thinking of this. She had made this bold request because she was afraid that Ji Yuan may be bullied by Elder Dong by offending him on his first day. She knew that the lives of the new recruits won''t be easy.

    Moreover there was something in Ji Yuan that seemed to attract her attention¡­

    An old elder in purple attire stood up as he stammered, "Elder Qiu. This young man here doesn''t even have any spiritual root. He won''t be even a good cultivator. If Elder Qiu wants a prot¨¦g¨¦ then I can help to select a worthy female recruit from among the five hundred new cultivators that we have recruited today."

    Fairy Xiuyu frowned lightly, "Female recruit? Is there a rule in the True Origin Celestial Sect that I must only have a female recruit? I seem to remember that a prot¨¦g¨¦ master is free to select both male and female prot¨¦g¨¦s as core prot¨¦g¨¦s. Don''t forget that I am the only prot¨¦g¨¦ and only female prot¨¦g¨¦ of our Grand Patriarch."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder; This Li Ye sure is lecherous. How can he leave such a beautiful maiden behind to ascend to the Celestial Realm¡­

    But secretly he was impressed because it was only proper that a prot¨¦g¨¦ master and his prot¨¦g¨¦s had a clean rtionship. He had never thought that he would have fallen in love with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, both who were his core prot¨¦g¨¦s.<sub> </sub>

    In the past, he had kept a proper distance between them and he had never known that they had secretly idolized him.

    He had actually thought that he was not a good prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster because he was rarely seen even in his own sect most of the time and preferred that that his prot¨¦g¨¦s had the ability to fend for themselves.

    When he had met Fairy Ye Chengxi again a hundred yearster after his breakthrough attempt, she had long seeded him as the new prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    He had thought that she was not able to able to recognize him and he was d that she was able to be independent now.

    His original intention was just to help her secretly before searching the celestial fraternity to look for Jiajia. But he had never thought that he would meet Jiajia so soon as his next door enemy and also, he had ended up taking Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan as his main consorts.

    From that point onward, his world of celibacy had taken a sudden turn.

    It waster that he had learnt from Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue that he had a reputation as a gay due to his rejections of numerous beautiful maidens and that was why Jiajia was probably testing if he was truly a gay.

    He was renderedpletely speechless by their assumptions.

    He just had a sad past from Little Princess and Jian Yuluo that had caused him to avoid the beautiful maidens.

    But after he had resolved his heart demons with Little Princess and Jian Yuluo, he no longer abstains from his celibacy anymore.

    The conversations between Fairy Xiuyu and the old cultivator continued, "Grand Elder Li Yimo, he may be an unpolished gem and hence that is the reason why I am taking him to be my core prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Grand Elder Li Yimo said sarcastically, "A person without any spirit root will never amount to anything good."

    "But did you see the way he has caught hold of Elder Dong''s fist?" Fairy Xiuyu pointed out. "He is nimble enough."

    Grand Elder Li Yimoughed, "This doesn''t prove anything and only proves that Elder Dong is being lenient toward him or else do you really think that he can really catch hold of Elder Dong''s fist?"

    Ji Yuan frowned silently; I can also catch of hold of your little brother and kick you out of this grand hall anytime¡­

    Fairy Xiuyu firmly said, "My mind is firmly made up. This Ji Yuan is not going to be just my special prot¨¦g¨¦ but my core prot¨¦g¨¦ as well. I am going to impart to him all my profound skills."

    Grand Elder Li Yimo: ¡­

    All the elders: ¡­

    All the cultivators¡­

    All the newly recruits: ¡­

    The elders and cultivators of the True Origin Celestial Sect were all taken by surprise by Fairy Xiuyu. It was because she had never been this insistent before and had never argued with any elders before. But today, she was openly defying all the elders to take Ji Yuan as her core prot¨¦g¨¦.

    As Grand Elder Li Yimo knew of her special status in the True Origin Celestial Sect and he was also willing to give her the face, he began to sigh softly. "This Ji Yuan is indeed so lucky to have the most beautiful fairy in the True Origin Celestial Sect as his prot¨¦g¨¦ master."

    Then he turned to Ji Yuan to say, "From today onward, Elder Qiu will be your prot¨¦g¨¦ master. After the ceremony is over, you can join her in her abode."

    But something about Ji Yuan made him uneasy so he raised his voice to warn Ji Yuan, "You must remember to show your prot¨¦g¨¦ master due respect at all times, never have any impure thoughts about your prot¨¦g¨¦ master and treat your prot¨¦g¨¦ master like your parents."

    Ji Yuan had already cast the warning out of his mind the minute as he turned to look at Fairy Xiuyu. He was already thinking; I have such a beautiful prot¨¦g¨¦ master¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered to Xiang Li, "He is definitely not paying attention to anything else except his lower body."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Isn''t this good anyway?"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 395 My New Master (1)

    After the initiation ceremony was over, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu took Ji Yuan to another mountain peak where she introduced it as her abode.

    "This is the Green Lofty Peak. From now onward, you will be my prot¨¦g¨¦. You will address me as your master and I will impart the sect''s profound skills to you."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu saw that Ji Yuan was grinning at her and she had a sudden flush to her beautiful countenance. She quickly said. "Ji Yuan, you are only lucky to have met me today and I feel that there is a celestial affinity between us. You should thank your lucky stars. The reason why I''ve made you as my core prot¨¦g¨¦ is not because you have an affinity to be a celestial cultivator but because I do not want you to be bullied by Elder Dong. Do you get me?"

    Ji Yuan continued to grin, "I am so lucky to have such a beautiful master. Li Ye is so lucky."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu gasped as she raised her fingers, "Ji Yuan. Please do not address our Grand Patriarch by his name. This is not only disrespectful but it also speaks of your personal character."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; I am used to calling Li Ye as Li Ye. Even if your Grand Patriarch Li Ye sees me, he has to address me as his Brother Ji Yuan and also as his prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu sighed softly as she turned away while Ji Yuan began to admire her beautiful back and curved butt from behind.

    She said mncholy, "Ji Yuan, we are all cultivators of the way. We must abstain from the worldly emotions and to cultivate hard. With some hard work, you may be able to follow Grand Patriarch to the Celestial Realm one day."

    "But Master," Ji Yuan grinned. "I''ve no spiritual roots so it is pointless for me to cultivate."

    Fairy Qiuyue was quite taken aback when she heard Ji Yuan and she blinked her eyes as she stared at him for a while; she had almost forgotten that he cannot cultivate¡­

    But she quickly recollected her thoughts to say coolly, "Even though you cannot cultivate but it doesn''t mean that you cannot ascend to the Celestial Realm. I''ve read some old books that even somemon folks are able to ascend to the Celestial Realm. Therefore it is important that you should have good characters."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately when he recalled the 300 Spartans that he was in charge of not too long ago. He had helped these worthless mortals to ascend to the Celestial Realm not too long ago. Every one of them seems to havecked a good character and he had to use forced coercion to keep them moving toward their goals.

    He had almost vomited blood when he was in charge of them¡­

    So he said, "Good characters may not be a criteria to ascend to the Celestial Realm. Sometimes, luck ys a huge part."

    Qiu Xiuyu was somewhat startled that Ji Yuan had talked back to her.

    She had thought that Ji Yuan may be in awe of her and was too excited to be her prot¨¦g¨¦ that he would have an almost reverent attitude.

    But to her astonishment, Ji Yuan had an almost nonchnt look.

    However she quickly put that aside as she muttered silently to herself; it isn''t because he has a beautiful face but because he is merely a country pumpkin that is still trying to adjust himself to his new life¡­

    "Follow me." Qiu Xiuyu said gently to him. "The route to my abode is still far and it will be a tiring trek for you."

    After half a day, Qiu Xiuyu led Ji Yuan to a beautiful ce with a beautiful waterfall as its background. In front of the waterfall, was a humble looking wooden hut that had earthen walls.

    Qiu Xiuyu said quietly to Ji Yuan, "This is our abode from now on. You shall sleep over there in the hut next to my hut. In the future, you shall train here in this vicinity. I rarely have any visitors and this ce is quite secluded from the main sect. Sometimes there may be dangers from the deste beasts in the vicinity so it is important that you will need to protect yourself. Take a short break first and in one hour time, I will impart to you our sect''s unique swordy."

    Ji Yuan was gasping silently; Did she just say that this ce is quite secluded and she rarely have any visitors? Does it mean that there are just the two of us? Hehe¡­

    Xiang Li was saying excitingly to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother! Did you hear that? She is staying alone!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he tried very hard to contain his excitement, "Xiang Li, I am a man of culture and moreover she is Li Ye''s core prot¨¦g¨¦. How can I have any designs on her? Do you really think that I will be so desperate? I really think that your re-education is long overdue."

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "Howe what he is saying and what he seems to be thinking, are both different¡­the two of them arepletely hopeless. Why am I here with them in the first ce¡­."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly quiet so she was a little concerned, "Ji Yuan, are you alright? Are you tired from the trek? Or do you want to take a break for the night first. I can wait for tomorrow to impart to you our sect''s swordy. I am sorry if I am not being considerate about your constitution."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am not tired. I can still climb up and down the mountains 10 times. Haha."

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Ji Yuan, "Be careful that your new master will really ask you to run up and down the mountains 10 times."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But Fairy Qiu Xiuyu merely shook her head lightly, "Men always like to im over their limits."

    Then she asked Ji Yuan curiously, "May your master knows why you are in the True Origin Celestial Sect? I''m sure that you''re here to be a cultivator but after learning that you''ve no spiritual root, are you disappointed with the result?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes for a while. He had not expected his new master to ask him this question.

    But he replied nevertheless, "I''m actually here to be a cultivator. I hope to be allowed inside the sect''s spiritual veins to cultivate."

    Thest part was a lie; his objective is to grab the profound spiritual energies of the spiritual veins so that he canplete the trial. This profound spiritual energies is the key to enter the Pangu''s Inner Citadel.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu gasped, "This is impossible. Only a few selected core prot¨¦g¨¦s and the elders are allowed inside the holy consecrate ground of the True Origin Celestial Sect. You do not have any spiritual root to cultivate in the first ce."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; actually I am the most powerful cultivator that you have ever known¡­

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly realized that she was putting down on Ji Yuan and she was a little afraid that he may be discouraged easily.

    So she quickly said, "Since you are not tired, let me disy our sect''s swordy to you. There is more than one way to be a cultivator. Maybe you can be a sword cultivator first and one day, your spiritual root will be able to awaken due to your aplishments in your sword art."

    So she passed Ji Yuan a wooden sword as she said, "Watch me."

    Inhaling softly, she began to disy the sword y of the True Origin Celestial Sect to Ji Yuan.

    "The True Origin Celestial Swordy consists of 72 steps and 360 changes. I''m going to disy it to you. It may take you months and even years to even grasp the basic sword forms but do not worry about your progression. Most prot¨¦g¨¦s can only grasp 10-30% of the True Origin Celestial Swordy."

    So she spent half an hour to disy the True Origin Celestial Swordy while Ji Yuan secretly drooled at the careless opening of her skirt that revealed her white thighs as she disyed the True Origin Celestial Swordy in earnest to Ji Yuan.

    When she was done, she smiled gently at Ji Yuan. "Why don''t you disy the True Origin Celestial Swordy to me with the best of your memory? I can instruct and guide you along the way."

    She was thinking; He must be awestruck by the swordy and I can feel that he is looking at the disy with earnest¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking; her skirt didn''t part even more¡­but her figure sure is good¡­

    "Ji Yuan?" Qiu Xiuyu saw his nked expression as she called his name. "Don''t be afraid. This is only your first practice. You really do not have to be too nervous about it. I won''t scold or eat you."

    Ji Yuan scratched his chin as he smiled weakly, "Haha¡­I got distracted¡­"

    Then he picked up the wood sword and started to disy the True Origin Celestial Swordy.

    In less than 5 minutes, he hadpletely disyed it and the profound force that he had disyed caused all the leaves in the vicinity to swap in a big circle and even the waters of the waterfall got swayed to one side while he was disying the True Origin Celestial Swordy.

    Qiu Xiuyu was stunned when she saw that Ji Yuan was able to disy the True Origin Celestial Swordy with such an uncanny resemble that she refused to believe that this was the first time that Ji Yuan had seen the True Origin Celestial Swordy.

    At the same time she was also stunned because of the pure strong profound that was being generated from Ji Yuan''s wooden sword.

    Isn''t he without a spiritual root?!

    Where did his profound strengthes from¡­

    Ji Yuanughed when he hadpleted disying the True Origin Celestial Swordy; this swordy is actually far inferior to the sword arts of the Orthodox Sword Sect. When he was roaming the celestial fraternity a hundred years ago, the sword arts of his Orthodox Sword Sect was at least in the top 100. As for Li Ye''s swordy, he had to say sorry that it cannot even be ranked in the top 1000 even if Li Ye managed to polish it.

    That was the reason why Li Ye was now practicing the swordy of the Orthodox Sword Sect under the guidance of Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Ji Yuan is a sword saint and he has seen countless swordy in his life. He doesn''t need to really remember the True Origin Celestial Swordy to know the entire moves of this swordy. To him, it is merely a practice round for him.

    Qiu Xiuyu on the other hand was trembling with shock; it was because her new prot¨¦g¨¦''s swordy had just exceeded her and she did not know how to react¡­

 Chapter 396 My New Master (2)

    Qiu Xiuyu was still in shock after Ji Yuan had disyed perfectly the True Origin Celestial Swordy and in a much shorter time than she was capable of.

    She took Ji Yuan to a small shrine within her hutpound and said to Ji Yuan, "This is the shrine of your Grand Patriarch. I am his core prot¨¦g¨¦ as well as the 132th lineage of the Green Abode. You will be the 133th lineage of the Green Abode. You ought to bow three times in front of our Grand Patriarch to show your proper respect for him and seek his blessings in the heavens."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I have to bow 3 times? Maybe he is the one that should seek my blessings instead."

    "What did you just say?" Qiu Xiuyu thought that she had heard something but she was not paying attention.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Nothing. Nothing at all."

    Qiu Xiuyu took three joss sticks for him. "This is the burnt offerings for your Grand Patriarch Li Ye. After you have paid your respect for him, you ought to bow down three times in front of him. Only then will our master-disciple rtionship be properly established."

    Ji Yuan continued to smile bitterly; he has no issue bowing in front of his new beautiful master but to Li Ye¡­it is unthinkable. He is now thinking of beating up Li Ye for no apparent reason now¡­

    Fairy Anyang could see the reluctance in his heart so she reminded him, "Remember this is a tempering of your heart. There are no superior celestials or inferior celestials. Everyone is born equal."

    Fairy Anyang''s words jolted Ji Yuan as he muttered a quick thanks.

    Very quickly he prostrated in front of the portrait of Li Ye and he was soon prostrating in front of Qiu Xiuyu as he said, "My respects to Master Qiu."

    There was a light flush on Qiu Xiuyu as Ji Yuan bowed himself in front of her.

    She tried very hard to contain her excitement as she said to Ji Yuan, "From today onward, you will be my core prot¨¦g¨¦. Do you know that you are my first core prot¨¦g¨¦?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head.

    Qiu Xiuyu continued as she smiled, "I am sometimes known as Fairy Xiuyu in the True Origin Celestial Sect but I am also holding the title of Elder of the Inner Court. My cultivation realm is at the Crisis Realm. In order to transcend to be a celestial, we have to ovee the seven celestial divinities of Genesis, Enlighten, Emotion, Transverse, Seventh Sense, Crisis and Ascend in order to transcend to the Heavens."

    Ji Yuan could not make any sense to the mortal cultivation realms but he knew that she can be tranted into a 4th realm Immortal Celestial in the Celestial Realm.

    He chuckled weakly, "Master, have you forgotten that I''ve no spiritual roots?"

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu blinked her eyes slowly before she said quietly, "You''re lying. Earlier I can see your profound strength that is being disyed and you aren''t weak."

    She was not lying. In fact, she could sense that Ji Yuan''s profound strength far exceeded her.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Maybe it is only because my master is such a good teacher that I am able to muster my profound strength even though I do not have any spiritual roots."

    Qiu Xiuyu slowly said, "Show me your palm."

    Ji Yuan did as he was told and disyed his palm out for her to examine.

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped softly as she began to examine Ji Yuan''s palm and she could feel that he had an unusual strong profound energies coursing within him.

    For a moment, she was confused and perplexed at the same time; the testing stone will be wrong? He does have spirit roots and he can obviously cultivate¡­

    She had used the old fashion method to examine Ji Yuan''s pulse instead in order to be sure.

    She was soon gasping again; it was because Ji Yuan indeed has profound energies within his inner cultivation sea but it was a different type from hers. In fact, she could feel that this profound energies actually have a familiar tingling.

    She gasped again; My Master Li Ye has the same profound energies before he had ascended to the Celestial Realm¡­how did this young mane to possess the same type of golden profound energies as my master?

    All of a sudden she was gasping again because Ji Yuan was holding onto her hands and was rubbing at the same time.

    She shook Ji Yuan off as she quickly withdrew her hands from him, "What are you doing?!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "My beautiful master, your hands are so silky and I can''t help myself."

    Qiu Xiuyu said angrily, "How dare you be respectful to me! Do you know that I am your master?"

    Ji Yuan asked, "Master, you like Grand Patriarch Li Ye, do you?"

    Qiu Xiuyu had a sudden flush, "Nonsense! How can you spurt rubbish!"

    But Ji Yuan insisted, "The way you look at the portrait of Grand Patriarch is very much different when you are looking at the rest of us. I know that Master must have loved Grand Patriarch a lot."

    p Qiu Xiuyu was taken aback by Ji Yuan''s boldness and she was suddenly speechless with her own emotions.</anda>

    After a while, she said mncholy. "Since you are my prot¨¦g¨¦, I ought to be honest with you."

    Slowly she turned her back on Ji Yuan to stare nkly at the portrait of Li Ye before saying with woeful mncholy. "Yes, I really like our Grand Patriarch but sadly mine is an unrequited love. Moreover he is my master so I dare not tell him that I like him."

    Ji Yuan said, "Why don''t you tell him that you like him?"

    Qiu Xiuyu sighed, "Actually I did hint to him many times but he always gives me a lecture that he is trying to cultivate the way and he has no interest in the worldly emotions. He has always told me that his destiny is in the Celestial Realm and one day he would find a maiden there to be his cultivation partner."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly as he thought; well, he got rejected by Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu¡­but finally he manages to find a love interest in Nangong Xiu now but if I tell you this, I am afraid of breaking your heart.

    Qiu Xiuyu said quietly, "Therefore I can only cultivate hard so that one day I may be able to join him in the Celestial Realm. Hopefully he still remembers me."

    Ji Yuan said, "If I were Grand Patriarch, I will surely not let such a beautiful maiden go."

    "But you are not him." Qiu Xiuyu hummed. "Grand Patriarch is the most heroic man that I''ve ever known. As for you, you have loose morals. You ought to cultivate the way and to temper your heart or else you will never be able to advance in your cultivation."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I have loose morals? I think Li Ye has a more loose morals than I¡­also, I do not need to cultivate anymore¡­"

    "What did you just say?" Qiu Xiuyu interrupted Ji Yuan as she could not hear what he was muttering.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am just saying if a man is not bad, the maiden won''t like him."

    Qiu Xiuyu was taken aback and there was a fluster in her countenance as she started to rebuke Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, I am really disappointed in you. Do you believe that I will expulse you from my sight as well as from the True Origin Celestial Sect?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "But master, you are really very beautiful. More beautiful than most of the celestial maidens in the Celestial Realm. I am a man so I can tell you that you are very desirable."

    "You are too outrageous!" Qiu Xiuyu raised her voice and at the same time she had also raised her hand to p Ji Yuan.

    But as she tried to p Ji Yuan, she missed him and had fallen into his solid embrace.

    All of a sudden she could feel Ji Yuan''s hands on her bosoms and her butt.

    She was so startled and shocked that she pushed him away quickly. "What are you doing?!"

    She was so shock that she burst into tears as she quickly stormed out of the room.

    Ji Yuan was left to look at his fingers, still remembering his master''s soft ample body.

    He said weakly, "She must still be a chaste maiden. Li Ye, you''re so lucky."

    Xiang Li asked him, "Big Brother, so you are going to bang your master?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he said firmly, "I got too carried away. I should apologize to her instead. Xiang Li, we shouldn''t have any designs on her, not ever."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Why?"

    Ji Yuan replied, "She is too innocent. Moreover she is my Brother Li Ye''s future consort. You don''t green your own brothers."

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before she giggled, "If you bang her before she bes your Brother Li Ye''s consort then this won''t be considered as greening your own brothers, right?"

    Ji Yuan disyed an ugly look as he said exasperatingly, "Xiang Li, you really need some moral education. This is still wrong¡­"

    "The pot calling the kettle ck." Fairy Anyang could not resist giggling. "Just now who is rubbing your hands all over your master''s body."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Don''t remind me of this. You think that my master will expulse me on my first day?"

    Fairy Anyang nodded with a grin, "Most probably. I can''t believe that you are so outrageous. You''re going to fail this trial, 100%."

    Ji Yuan face-palmed himself, "Why did I have to touch her¡­"

    Xiang Li interrupted curiously, "Big Brother, I''ve a question. Xiang Li really does not understand!"

    Ji Yuan asked, "What is it?"

    Xiang Li asked, "You say you can''t green your own brothers but why did you fondle her just now?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is such a good question¡­

    Ji Yuan replied righteously, "I didn''t. She fell into my embrace just now."

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "Someone dodges her p and purposely trips her into falling into his embrace. You can trick Xiang Li but not me."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­actually it is a pure ident just now and not on purpose¡­"

 Chapter 397 My New Master (3)

    Qiu Xiuyu was bleary eyes when she had burst into the interior of her abode.

    She could not believe that her new prot¨¦g¨¦ actually had such an audacity as to molest her in front of the portrait of their Grand Patriarch.

    She wanted to be upset with him but strangely she was actually not upset with him. She had actually stormed off the shrine room because she was feeling too awkward and at a loss on what to do.

    She began to mutter with a shy flush, "I''ve tripped into his embrace and yet I''ve used him of outraging me. I must have ruined his first day impression of me¡­"

    She did not know that Ji Yuan did it on purpose. It was just that his movements were too quick that it looked like an ident.

    She continued to mutter, "I''ve forgotten to ask him how he got his golden profound energies. Or is it because he is a genius?"

    With a soft sigh, she began to examine herself in the mirror and saw that she had ruined her light make-up with her tears.

    She began to stare at herself for a while as she muttered silently; I may be the most beautiful maiden in the True Origin Celestial Sect but my master has never looked into my eyes like my new prot¨¦g¨¦¡­

    She began toment over her past rtionship with Li Ye.

    He was not only her master but her hero. She had dropped him numerous hints that she had liked him but he had rebuked her fiercely on several asions.

    "Xiuyu, I am so disappointed in you! Do you know that we are master and disciple! I hope that you do not entertain any lofty thoughts on me and instead you should cultivate your heart and the way!"

    "Xiuyu, maybe I ought to find you a dao partner here. I don''t need your concerns for me. My injuries are light and it is part of my tribtions¡­"

    "Xiuyu, I am going to the Celestial Realm soon. I will have no emotion attachments to anyone here in the mortal realm. I am going to find a celestial maiden to be my dual cultivation partner¡­"

    Qiu Xiuyu was suddenly rolling her eyes when she recalled the hurtful words that Li Ye had said to her in the past.

    Her heart began to stir with emotions as she muttered silently; Actually my master with his short curly beard is quite ugly. In fact, he is just average looking¡­

    The heroic Li Ye in her heart has suddenly been reced by a beautiful young man and he is Ji Yuan.

    She has never met anyone that is as beautiful as Ji Yuan before and her heart has been fluttering ever since she first caught sight of him.

    That was why she had been paying extra attention to him and had even taken the bold initiative to take him as her prot¨¦g¨¦ in the grand hall.

    The cold and icy Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly taken a core prot¨¦g¨¦. This was a shock to many of the elders and cultivators of the True Origin Celestial Sect.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu was infamous as cold and impersonal in the True Origin Celestial Sect and she was unwilling to say a word more to anyone. At the same time she was also known as a reclusive elder because she was known not to meddle in the sect''s affairs.

    That was why everyone in the True Origin Celestial Sect was shocked that she had taken a core prot¨¦g¨¦ and right now, this was the hottest gossip.

    Moreover she had taken a core prot¨¦g¨¦ who was without a spirit root.

    Ji Yuan had quietly entered her abode.

    It was because he had a great sense of guilt and he wanted to apologize to his master.

    He knew what he did was wrong.

    And he was cursing himself silently; I know that this is the lower mortal realm but you should have kept yourself in check. Moreover she is Li Ye''s woman¡­

    But he had suddenly realized that he hade in at the wrong timing because Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly stood up and she was loosening her profound belt.<sub> </sub>

    Her short skirt had suddenly been loosened and dropped to the ground.

    Ji Yuan''s eyes nearly popped out when he saw the scene in front of him.

    Actually he was about to reveal himself to apologize to her but he quickly hid himself because he did not know how to react in this situation¡­

    Even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were dumbfounded¡­

    But Xiang Li was more excited than being dumbfounded and she was giggling at the delicious scene in front of her.

    Ji Yuan gulped when he saw that Qiu Xiuyu had also removed her outer garment robe and she was now in her lingeries.

    He was now staring at her beautiful perfect bare back and saw that her bunnies were being held together by two  thin strings.

    At the same time he was staring at her white silken legs that were being exposed in front of him and she was only wearing a sexy light blue panties.

    Qiu Xiuyu was trembling lightly as she began to touch herself at the ces where Ji Yuan had touched her earlier¡­

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he muttered silently; this is too sinful. What is my master doing? Is she¡­

    Before he could second guess what his master was doing, he could hear soft light moans.

    She was already confirming what Ji Yuan had just thought and he was quite startled to see the events that were unfolding in front of him.

    He could see that she had also loosened her lingeries and he could see her perked peaks clearly and she seemed to be ying with her two balloons¡­

    He could also feel a big bulge below him because Qiu Xiuyu was simply too beautiful and her voice was too seductive.

    If he was a bad guy, he would have rushed forward to bang her like an animal.

    But he was a good guy as well as a cultivator with a high state of divinity.

    But even then he was breaking into cold sweats as he tried to suppress his beastly urges as he watched the events unfolded in front of him.

    He was cursing Li Ye all this while; You lucky bastard. Your prot¨¦g¨¦ can''t get your heart and she is forced to masturbate to release her pent up feelings for you¡­

    After some time, Qiu Xiuyu gasped aloud and there was a deep flush on her countenance; she had imagined that Ji Yuan was kissing her passionately and he had been banging her violently.

    Slowly she bent her back over and began to slide off her panties.

    Ji Yuan had a good view of her naked lower body and he was gulping¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu shyly began to examine her wet panties and there was a deep fluster on her countenance; she could not believe that she was actually masturbating after years of abstaining¡­

    All of a sudden she had frozen on the spot because she saw something in the mirror; it was the reflection of Ji Yuan in the mirror!

    She gasped with shock as she quickly pulled her loose clothing to cover herself while shouting shockingly, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing in my room?! Get out of here!"

    Ji Yuan also had a flush countenance after being treated to such a good show that his legs were too weak to speed off immediately.

    He could only say weakly, "If I tell you that I didn''t see anything, will you believe me?"

 Chapter 398 My New Master (4)

    Qiu Xiuyu was staring nkly at Ji Yuan when she had heard that he did not see anything.

    She held tightly onto her loose clothing and she was trembling; right now, she was not wearing anything underneath and she could not believe that Ji Yuan did not see a thing.

    Her divine sense was actually one of the best in the True Origin Celestial Sect. She simply could not believe that a new recruit could hide in her room without her knowledge. But the fact was, it did happen and if she had not seen Ji Yuan''s reflection through the mirror, she would have no idea that she would be spied upon in such a shameless manner.

    Moreover she saw that Ji Yuan was rubbing his underneath when she saw him and she was greatly startled by what she had seen as well.

    Fairy Anyang face-palmed herself as she said to Ji Yuan, "My lord, I can''t help you to wriggle out of this. Good luck to you¡­"

    Xiang Li on the other hand was giggling softly, "Maybe Big Brother should perform a show as a favor in return."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, this is not the time to joke around. Can''t you see that I am now in serious shit¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled, "I''m sure Big Brother has a way out."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly to Qiu Xiuyu as he undone his Mystic Eyes Profound Skill to reveal his golden eyes once more, "Master, is that you? I have an eye ailment. Sometimes when my eyes are golden, I can see nothing except for a bright ring light. I must have identally entered your room."

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    No way is she going to believe this tall tale¡­

    But she was forced to swallow her bitterness as she said quietly, "I¡­believe¡­you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled; she will actually believe me?!

    He was finding this a little hard to believe as well.

    Qiu Xiuyu lowered her head in great awkwardness, "Ji Yuan, I want you to swear three things to your soul sea."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What is it?"

    Qiu Xiuyu bit her lips before saying, "Firstly, swear that you are not a heretic cultivator or an unorthodox cultivator."

    "I can swear on that." Ji Yuan answered.

    Qiu Xiuyu sighed with relief before continuing, "Secondly, promise that you won''t tell anyone what you have seen today."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I really didn''t see anything at all."

    Qiu Xiuyu inhaled softly before saying woefully, "You are lying. Tell me who you are before¡­"

    All of a sudden her eyes had turned murderous, "Tell me who you are before I kill you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; he knew that he had crossed a line and this trial was basically over for him.

    But he was not giving up easily.

    Not yet.

    So he said with a heavy sigh, "Actually I don''t wish to lie to my beautiful master anymore."

    Qiu Xiuyu: ???<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan suddenly stood upright as he put his hands behind his back and he looked more like a master than Fairy Qiu Xiuyu.

    He continued, "I''ve actuallye from the Celestial Realm. My golden eyes are evidence that I am actually a golden celestial. I am sure that you have also found out that my profound energies are much stronger than anyone else."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped, "You''vee from the Celestial Realm? I¡­knew it¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; is she so gullible? She didn''t even ask me for more evidences¡­

    Usually Ji Yuan was used to handle the shrew celestial maidens who would ask him nonstop before trusting him. This was an unusual experience for him to have a maiden that took his words literally.

    Ji Yuan did not know that Qiu Xiuyu actually did not have a trusting nature. But in front of such a beautiful young man, she was willing to believe everything that he had said.

    Ji Yuan said, "I actually know Li Ye personally and he has asked me to visit you so that I may aid you with your celestial practice."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped softly, "Grand Patriarch Li Ye¡­has sent you to me? How is he?"

    Actually at this point of time, she was reluctant to mention Li Ye and in fact, she looked a little disappointed that Li Ye has remembered her. How she wished that Ji Yuan was a golden celestial that hase to visit her on his own ord¡­

    But out of politeness and social etiquette, she had asked Ji Yuan about Li Ye.

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "He misses you and that is why he has sent me here to look for you. He is doing fine in the Celestial Realm but he is feeling quite lonely up there."

    Silently he was saying; I''ve better not tell her that he is with Nangong Xiu or her heart will surely be broken¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded quietly as she turned her head away, "Is that so¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes had suddenly spotted the gap between her loose clothing and he was suddenly gulping as he stared at her naked body behind¡­

    While staring hard, he continued. "He is now an Elder of the Emperor Hall Sect in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. So he has considerable status in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. He is famous now. Haha."

    Yea, his considerable status actually started from the bottom up.

    He is actually a nobody in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­

    Ji Yuan actually had a heartache when he had said that. He sighed woefully; Li Ye, you lucky bastard. You ought to thank me in the future when you are able to take her as your second consort...

    Qiu Xiuyu said quietly, "So you are a great golden celestial from the Celestial Realm. What a joke that I will actually take a great golden celestial as my core prot¨¦g¨¦. I guess that from today onward, I ought to be the one that address you as my Senior or Great Celestial."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he took out a golden pill and a divine sword, "This golden pill is able to help you to breakthrough to the next cultivation realm to ascend to the Celestial Realm. As for this divine sword, it will be able to aid you to ascend to the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan had found several such golden pills that he had reserved for Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi to aid them to reach the next cultivation realm. It was more useful at the lower cultivation realm than to a golden saint.

    As for the divine sword, it was something that he had randomly picked up along the way. He had actually lost count in the number of divine swords that he had picked up from the defeated/ dead cultivators.

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped when she saw the divine sword; it was an earth-step divine sword.

    Even a half-step divine sword was an astonishing powerful profound treasure in the mortal celestial fraternity!

    She simply could not believe that Ji Yuan would simply give her a divine sword out of the blue and in such a casual manner¡­

    In fact, she was so shocked that she had dropped the loose clothing that she had grabbed around her.

    Ji Yuan''s eyes nearly popped out at the full beautiful view in front of him¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu panicky gathered her loose clothing once more and she was flushing hotly. She really did not know what to say in this situation¡­

    But Ji Yuan was muttering, "You''re more beautiful than most celestial maidens in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    Before he knew what he was doing, Ji Yuan had already grabbed Qiu Xiuyu in his embrace and he was kissing her passionately.

    He hadpletely thrown Li Ye out of his mind.

    And Qiu Xiuyu was reciprocating his kisses with passionate kisses on her own and once more, she had dropped her loose clothing.

    Before the two of them were realizing what they were doing, they were already rolling on the ground and Ji Yuan was already exploring Qiu Xiuyu''s body¡­

    Fairy Anyang was looking exasperatingly as she stared at Xiang Li, "This is your doing, am I right?"

    But Xiang Li was giggling softly, "This is so excitingly. I love it!"

 Chapter 399 Illicit Affair (1)

    ? The entire room was filled with scents of the lovemaking juices that were being made by Ji Yuan and Qiu Xiuyu.

    Ji Yuan had realized that Qiu Xiuyu was actually a chaste maiden but that did not stop him from banging her the whole day and whole night.

    He was filling her constantly and he had never had just a joyful love making session before Qiu Xiuyu was constantly pleading with him not to stop.

    And he could not stop because she was too soft and delicious for him to let go of her.

    When he did stop after a nearly a full day had passed, he was feeling extremely guilty.

    It was because he had not just banged his own master but he had also green Li Ye¡­

    This was actually the first time he had green his own brother so how could he not feel guilty?

    Xiang Li could feel his emotions so she reminded him, "Big Brother, this is not the same as greening your own brother because you are the first to im her! Moreover Xiang Li can feel that she likes you and not Li Ye!"

    "Stopforting me." Ji Yuanmented in great misery.

    He felt like there was a dark blemish in his heart now and that his dao had sunken into the abyss. This would be bad for his future cultivation¡­

    Except that he did not have to cultivate anymore but he would probably fail his ascension to the Immortal Realm in the future because of this dark blemish.

    He felt like he had destroyed his own honor.

    How could he do such a thing to his Brother Li Ye?

    He could have sworn that he was trying to help Li Ye but when he saw Qiu Xiuyu had identally dropped her clothing in front of him, he hadpletely lost his mind to his inner heart demon.

    But he had never thought that if Qiu Xiuyu was also a willing party and that he was the one that was seducing her instead.

    The truth was that Qiu Xiuyu had beenpletely charmed by him from the very first instant that she had met him and her dao heart had beenpletely unsettled by him.

    Ji Yuan could only me the five masculine profound pills that he had taken not too long ago¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu was suddenly asking him as they lie in bed together, "Ji Yuan, can you really tell me who you are? Because I know that my Patriarch Li Ye did not send you to me."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Why do you say that?"

    Qiu Xiuyu said mncholy, "My Patriarch Li Ye is someone that can scold me for hours should he discover that I''ve been sipping tea that is more expensive than the average. If he really sends you here, I doubt that he will ask you to give me a coveted divine sword. He will rather give it to the True Origin Celestial Sect rather than to me."

    "Maybe he is now a wealthy celestial in the Celestial Realm now, that''s why." Ji Yuan exined weakly.

    "Don''t lie to me." Qiu Xiuyu quietly said. "I may not know much about the Celestial Realm but I know that it is extremely rare for celestials to visit the mortal realm. I doubt very much that my Patriarch Li Ye has the resources to send you here. Moreover if he really a wealthy celestial, why don''t he pay me a personal visit rather than asking you to visit me?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "That is because¡­"

    "Why are you still hiding things from me? Are we not close now?" Qiu Xiuyu bit her lips shyly as she looked into his golden eyes.

    Ji Yuan answered, "Erm¡­"

    "You have obviously made this up at the veryst minute, did you?" Qiu Xiuyu looked away mncholy. "If he has really sent you here then why don''t you state your intention to me much earlier? Or you don''t know my Patriarch Li Ye at all. You are just lying to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was a little startled by her questioning. He had thought of her as a simpleton but now he was not sure anymore¡­

    With a deep sigh, he said. "Actually I do know Li Ye personally. In fact, we are brothers in the Celestial Realm."

    He was feeling terribly guilty now because he had just green his brother and elder¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled, "You really know my Patriarch Li Ye?"

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly, "Of course I do. Li Ye is a good fighter and he has a righteous heart. I''ve met him when he had first ascended to the Celestial Realm. He was trying to fight some golden supremacies. Haha."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped. A golden supremacy is a superior golden celestial and is ranked much higher than a golden celestial. "My Patriarch is so strong?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Well, he is really strong and he can beat most of the golden supremacies."<sub> </sub>

    He neglected to mention that most of the golden supremacies that Li Ye had defeated were from the second and third tier celestial ns. Moreover they were all unranked fighters.

    Ji Yuan may be from a third tier celestial n but he was a ranked sword cultivator and a sword saint. Even though he may be looked down upon by most of the power cultivators from the first tier celestial ns but none of them dared to say that their swordy is superior to him.

    Qiu Xiuyu asked quietly, "So are you a golden celestial as well?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes before he admitted, "I am a great golden saint. Haha."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped with shock as her naked body fell weakly into Ji Yuan''s embrace again.

    Ji Yuan took advantage of it to fondle her again¡­

    The reason why Qiu Xiuyu was so stunned was because a great golden saint is also known as the Great Eternal Golden Saint (Daluo Jinxian), the highest level of the golden celestials.

    In the annuals of the mortal celestial records, the Great Eternal Golden Saint is a lofty existence in the Celestial Realm. Even 100 golden saints are not equaled to a Great Eternal Golden Saint and the power disparity between a Golden Saint and a Great Eternal Golden Saint is like the heavens and the earth.

    And a golden saint is already a lofty existence in the Celestial Realm and they rule over all the Golden Celestials and Golden Supremacies by the sheer profound power of their cultivation realm.

    "Haha." Ji Yuanughed. "Well, we don''t really call ourselves as the Great Eternal Golden Saint up there. We just have a great to our golden saint title, that is all. The celestials up there will address us as Great Saints or Great Saintess depending on our genders."

    He felt a little awkward to share with Qiu Xiuyu that he is a great saint because he had only attained to the seventh realm saint level not too long ago.

    His speed of cultivation surprised even himself.

    Qiu Xiuyu held onto Ji Yuan tightly as she gasped weakly, "Ji Yuan, will you look down upon me?"

    "Of course not. Why should I?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    "Because you are an old freak. Maybe you are just toying with me." Qiu Xiuyu began to sigh woefully.

    She turned her head away with great mncholy, "Maybe you have a secret celestial mission in the lower mortal realm and after you have done with it, you will return to the Celestial Realm and willpletely forgotten about me."

    Ji Yuan quietly said as he stroked her, "Xiuyu, I won''t ever forget about you. After you have ascended to the Celestial Realm, remember to go to the Deste Celestial Realm to look for me. I can''t control where you will ascend in the Celestial Realm and the Celestial Realm is a vast realm with many celestial fraternities but I will surely take you as my beloved consort when you are in the Celestial Realm."

    "Really? You really mean it?" Qiu Xiuyu asked as she looked with great mncholy into his eyes.

    Ji Yuan nodded, "I really mean it. When you are in the Deste Celestial Realm, you can ask any celestial for Ji Yuan."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped with tears of joy, "Really¡­I so happy¡­you must really be a renowned figure in the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; actually I am quite infamous recently¡­

    He is the hated enemy of half of the celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and half of the men in the Deste Celestial Fraternity for taking three out of four of the most beautiful celestial beauties as his consorts.

    Actually it is four out of four because no one really knows that Xia Jiaqing is actually Jiajia and she has disappeared¡­

    Moreover the men in the Deste Celestial Fraternity prided themselves for their beards and he is beardless¡­

    Thinking of his poor beard, Ji Yuan could not help returning a deep sigh.

    "What is wrong, my lord?" Qiu Xiuyu asked with a soft gasp, thinking that she may have displeased Ji Yuan somewhat.

    Ji Yuan quickly smiled, "Nothing. It is just that I am thinking that our lovemaking session is over so soon."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped shyly as she lowered her head, "I am a mere mortal. I may not be able to satisfy a Great Eternal Golden Saint like my lord."

    Ji Yuan quickly exined. "No, no. I don''t mean this¡­"

    But Qiu Xiuyu had already pulled Ji Yuan''s hand down below her parting legs as she shyly said. "I am still wet below. I will try to satisfy my lord to the best of my ability."

    Ji Yuan did not need to be told what to do next and he quickly began to get into his act of exploring Qiu Xiuyu''s body passionately again.

    That very night, Ji Yuan had no idea how many times he had entered into Qiu Xiuyu but the whole bed waspletely wet.

 Chapter 400 Illicit Affair (2)

    For the next couple of days, Ji Yuan and Qiu Xiuyu were always together.

    They were more like a couple than a master-disciple rtionship.

    They did not make love only at night but throughout the day as well.

    Whether it was during the ''practice session'' or just having a meal, Ji Yuan would make love to Qiu Xiuyu.

    Qiu Xiuyu actually has nothing to teach Ji Yuan because he is a superior great celestial. Instead she benefits more from Ji Yuan who enlightened her in many of the problems that she had been struck in her cultivation.

    Ji Yuan had told her, "Actually you are more suitable to use sword energies. But because the True Origin Celestial Sect isn''t a sword energy sect, your potential is severely limited here. But I can help you to unblock your profound energies to enable you to use sword energies."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled, "I can really use sword energies? Is it difficult to unblock for me? Will it cost you a great deal of profound strength? If so, forget about it."

    But Ji Yuan simplyughed it off, "Actually it is very easy for me to help you."

    And he was not lying.

    In less than an incense work, he hadpletely cleared her energy channels to enable her to use sword energies attack.

    Ji Yuan said, "I shall impart to you my sect sword energies skill. You can start with the Sword Energy Earth Wave and the Sword Energies Bursts. After you have mastered it, I shall impart to you my sect''s unique swordy the Major Heavens Sword."

    Qiu Xiuyu was even more touched by Ji Yuan as she began to study diligently on her newfound sword art.

    And of course, she was practicing something more exciting with Ji Yuan everyday as well.

    They would make love everywhere; in the woods, in the waterfalls behind the hut, in the kitchen, in the courtyard, in the bathroom, the practice chamber, the alchemy chamber and the most unlikely ces.

    At first Qiu Xiuyu did not wear any lingeries or panties so as to convenient Ji Yuan to grab and enter into her anytime.

    But after a few days, she did not even bother to wear any clothing while indoor because Ji Yuan was always on her and she was constantly covered with his masculine oozing.

    Their lovemaking was not restricted to long breaks. In fact after a short thirty minutes break, Ji Yuan was grabbing her again.

    Qiu Xiuyu was quite stunned by Ji Yuan''s masculine procreation ability but she thought it was because he was a Great Eternal Golden Celestial.

    But the truth was that Ji Yuan was finally managing to release all his vent up five masculine profound pills that he had swallowed a month earlier.

    And Qiu Xiuyu provided him a good way to release as she allowed him to constantly filling her up.

    Ji Yuan never thought that the lower realm mortal was so opened and he felt like he was in paradise.

    Literally, Qiu Xiuyu was so docile that she literally allowed Ji Yuan to ''y'' with her anytime and in whatever positions he desired. And she also allowed Ji Yuan to have a good look at all her private parts whenever he desired.

    Even when they were not making love, Ji Yuan''s fingers were constantly fondling her too¡­

    It was a scene that Fairy Anyang could not believe was unfolding right in front of her and it was a scene that caused Xiang Li to be really very excited.

    Even Qiu Xiuyu was surprised by her wantonness that she asked Ji Yuan, "My lord, am I a slut?"

    Ji Yuan replied firmly, "Of course you are not. You are my woman."

    This caused Qiu Xiuyu to surrender even more to Ji Yuan as she replied shyly, "Then cover my whole body with your love then and leave no ce untouched¡­"

    Ji Yuan willingly obliged her.

    A few dayster when Qiu Xiuyu was asleep, Fairy Anyang had appeared in front of Ji Yuan all of a sudden.

    p Ji Yuan immediately said, "Beloved Anyang, why are you here? You-"</anda>

    "I know that I am not supposed to be out unless you have given me the permission but this is important." Fairy Anyang said solemnly.

    Ji Yuan could see that she was very serious.

    Fairy Anyang added, "Your new toy Xiuyu is asleep now and so is Xiang Li. I put them to sleep."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Xiuyu isn''t my toy. She is my consort-to-be."<sub> </sub>

    But he quickly asked, "What is it? Why did you put them to sleep?"

    He was quite startled that Fairy Anyang had such ability.

    Fairy Anyang exined, "It is not easy to put them to sleep at the same time. I''ve been trying for many days. But they are really exhausted so this time it works."

    Ji Yuan nodded but he asked, "Erm, what is it regarding?"

    Fairy Anyang sighed, "My lord, I think that you are acting out of character. I have examined your soul sea memories. You are not like this in the past."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Fairy Anyang said quietly, "You are never a lecherous man but look at you now and nowadays. What have you been doing?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "People do change. In the past, I don''t know the joy of being in the maidens''pany. Haha."

    Fairy Anyang shook her head, "Qiu Xiuyu is your master. Think back. In the past, you are also against master-disciple rtionship."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Not anymore ever since I''ve married my dear Chengxi and Yan''Er to be my consorts. They used to be my core prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Fairy Anyang solemnly said, "A person''s principle does not change easily."

    "My beloved Anyang, maybe you are thinking too much. It is true that in the past I will avoid women like a gue and that is because of the dark blemish that is left in my heart by Little Princess. But after we have resolved our differences, I''m different again. Haha." Ji Yuan winked at her.

    Fairy Anyang said mncholy, "My lord, you may not know this and this is the reason why I''ve put Xiang Li to sleep."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Fairy Anyang continued solemnly, "Xiang Li is the Goddess'' Tear. While she is attracted to the good souls and is able to grant them her wishes but there is something that most people do not know about the Goddess Tear."

    Ji Yuan weakly asked, "What is it?"

    "The Goddess Tear has the inherent ability to corrupt the hearts of even the good souls, manifesting out their inner heart demons. Eventually most people who manage to obtain the Goddess Tear, they will be corrupted by the power that the Goddess Tear is bestowing to them and it will end up destroying them."

    Fairy Anyang paused for a while for it to sink in for Ji Yuan before continuing, "She is corrupting your good heart. You are never a lecherous man but look what have you be now. You may think that you are the one that is collecting your harem but it is actually Xiang Li who is collecting the harem for you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Surely not. Xiang Li is so innocent. She can''t corrupt me at all¡­"

    Fairy Anyang interrupted him, "Look at the entire ce. This wanton lovemaking. Is this really something that you will do or it is actually Xiang Li who wishes to see this oue?"

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the mess around the hut. These past few days, he had been banging Qiu Xiuyu nonstop that they did not even bother to clean up¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was blinking as he muttered, "I actually supposed to keep a distance from her because she is my Brother Li Ye''s woman¡­"

    "Now you see it, do you?" Fairy Anyang sighed. "Only when Xiang Li is asleep, only then will your rational mind be returned."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I still don''t think it is Xiang Li¡­"

    Fairy Anyang interrupted again, "You have mentioned so many times that you are going to re-educate Xiang Li but what happens every time? You''ve actually forgotten about it. Is that usually what you will do?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes again as he stared at the naked Qiu Xiuyu who was sound asleep. She still looked so tempting that he wanted to grab her and to bang her again.

    But this time he managed to control his bestial urges.

    He muttered weakly, "Is it really Xiang Li''s doing? But no way. It is actually me."

    Fairy Anyang said firmly, "Xiang Li has be your inner heart demon and has taken control of your will. You can''t resist her once you have obtained her. She can corrupt even the most pure souls."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes again; it was because he had suddenly realized that he had be too lecheroustely and he seemed to have no restraint anymore.

    He was beginning to doubt even himself now¡­

    Or rather, Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Thanks for telling me this. But keep this from Xiang Li first. I will think of a way first. From now onward, I will sustain myself from degeneration and cultivate my heart¡­"

 Chapter 401 Xiang Li, We Need To Talk.

    After Fairy Anyang had warned him, Ji Yuan had finally let the fact sunk in on how depraved he had beentely.

    He was indeed acting too much out of character.

    And in the past, he was actually suspicious of the celestial maidens whom he had always suspected that they had always an ulterior motive for getting close to him.

    In fact, he was infamous for turning away the many beautiful maidens that were all pestering to know him and he had never liked to keep his whereabouts known to anyone.

    And he would often criticize his Brother Xiao Muhan for having such a big harem.

    He was a strict prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster and he was also against any master-disciple rtionship.

    But today he had realized that he had been seducing his master and in the past, it was something unthinkable to him.

    Perhaps Fairy Anyang is right. Somehow, he had been corrupted by Xiang Li.

    Fairy Anyang''s words continued to haunt him, "None of the previous masters of the Goddess Tear have ever escaped from being corrupted by the power that the Goddess Tear can grant them. Either their egos be inted or they will be extremely conceited. In the end, they are all corrupted by the Goddess Tear until they got consumed by the depraved lusts in their hearts. My lord, I hope that you can retain your good soul and restrained from being corrupted by the Goddess Tear. It is actually not Xiang Li''s fault since she isn''t aware that she is capable of manifesting the inner demons of her master."

    He had asked Fairy Anyang, "What happens if my good soul is corrupted."

    Fairy Anyang answered solemnly, "You will lose yourself and your mind. You will no longer be yourself and you will turn into a mindless cultivator. Then the Goddess Tear will depart from you because you no longer have your good heart."

    Ji Yuan was startled to hear this.

    He does not want to lose Xiang Li at all¡­

    Ever since he had found Xiang Li, they were inseparable and Xiang Li knows all his dark secrets.

    That was why Ji Yuan was now determined to restrain himself from degeneration and to cultivate his heart now.

    It was because he did not want anything to happen to Xiang Li and he did not want to lose himself.

    As soon as Fairy Anyang had disappeared into his soul sea, he could hear Xiang Li yawning inside. "Big Brother, why have you stopped? Why am I asleep? No more bang, bang?"

    Ji Yuan solemnly answered her, "Xiang Li, we need to talk."

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan sighed, "What I have been doingtely ispletely wrong and is out of character from my usual self. Do you understand me?"

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan solemnly exined, "Therefore I''ve decided to abstain from sex and to cultivate my heart."

    Xiang Li was shocked, "Noooo Big Brother! This is such a horrible idea!"

    Then she turned to Fairy Anyang to say, "Anyang, please say something to dissuade Big Brother! This won''t be fun anymore!"

    But Fairy Anyang replied her, "No, I think this will be a good idea. Remember that our lord is a cultivator and he has to cultivate his heart. Do you want him to fail in his ascension to the Immortal Realm in the future?"

    "Erm, no." Xiang Li replied weakly, "But Big Brother is still a long way from his ascension so maybe that is alright?"<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Anyang frowned, "By then it will be toote. Depravation is a sickness and is extremely addicting. We need to encourage our lord now and to encourage him to cultivate his heart at the earliest possible so that he can have the greatest chance of ascending to the Immortal Realm."

    Ji Yuan also stepped in to say, "That is right. My Beloved Anyang is right."

    Xiang Li looked a little confused, "What is going on here¡­didn''t we have so much funtely. Why are we stopping when things are getting interesting¡­"

    But Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li as he firmly said, "I may have ruined Xiuyu and causes her dao heart to be degenerated. I need to correct my mistakes. She is a good maiden and I don''t want to ruin her. Do you get me?"

    Xiang Li sobbed with great reluctant, "Alright then¡­"

    All of a sudden Qiu Xiuyu had awakened and she was smiling at Ji Yuan, "My lord, you''re already awake?"

    Ji Yuan smiled to her, "Yes. I don''t need much rest."

    He was already looking lustfully at her because he could see that she was still naked.

    "Why are you dressed in your robe?" Qiu Xiuyu giggled softly.

    Her other meaning was that Ji Yuan ought to be naked too.

    Ji Yuan replied solemnly, "My dear Xiuyu, we need to talk¡­"

    But Qiu Xiuyu interrupted with a really shy look and her countenance was flushing, "Maybeter. I can help my lord¡­"

    Without waiting for Ji Yuan to say a word more, she had turned her butt to Ji Yuan''s face and had shyly opened up Ji Yuan''s robe to look at his little brother. "If my lord needs time to be strong, I can help you to blow."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he stared between her legs and he could see her honey dews were already forming in her sacred forbidden ground.

    He quickly protested weakly, "Actually this isn''t what I mean-"

    But Qiu Xiuyu hadpletely misunderstood him and she was holding his balls and was now blowing him.

    At the same time, her sacred forbidden ground was rubbing against Ji Yuan''s face.

    Ji Yuan began to grab onto her butt and before long, they were having their sexual escapades all over the ce once again.

    Xiang Li wasughing excitingly, "Big Brother, this is so excitingly!"

    Fairy Anyang tried to remind Ji Yuan, "My lord, have you forgotten that you are supposed to cultivate your heart?"

    But Ji Yuan replied weakly, "Maybeter. Onest time¡­."

    His mind waspletely on Qiu Xiuyu.

    Xiang Li was giggling, "So Big Brother is nning this surprise for me. I knew it. He is just trying to tease me!"

    She added excitingly, "Big Brother, you should fondle and rub her there¡­she will be more wet¡­"

    Fairy Anyang sighed silently; the hold that Xiang Li had exerted Ji Yuan is simply too powerful to be broken especially when she''s awake¡­

 Chapter 402 No More Degeneration; My Mind Is Set!

    It was not merely a few dayster but weekster.

    Every time Ji Yuan would say, "Onest time."

    Fairy Anyang was rendered speechless.

    Ji Yuan would always exin, "1 day in the Celestial Realm is 10 days here. Haha."

    "My lord, it has been over 2 weeks now." Fairy Anyang reminded him.

    "I didn''t want to disappoint Xiuyu¡­"

    "3 weeks now¡­"

    "Onest time. Xiuyu will be so disappointed¡­"

    But eventually Fairy Anyang good heart and Ji Yuan''s mastery of the Divine Heart Recite managed to triumph over Xiang Li''s Demon Heart Sutra.

    Or maybe Xiang Li got bored, rather.

    But regardless of the reasons, Ji Yuan was now determined to stop his degeneration and to salvage whatever leftover of his good heart.

    When Xiang Li heard of his determination, she was shocked again. "Big Brother, you are stopping? Why? No!"

    But Ji Yuan was extremely determined this time, "I have ruined the good image of the golden saints in front of the mortals. Now Xiuyu must have thought that the golden saints in the Celestial Realm are nothing but a group of lecherous pigs."

    In the end Xiang Li failed to persuade Ji Yuan as Ji Yuan recited his Divine Heart Recite, a top heart intricate form that he had found in a cultivation hall while taking the trial with Ling Feiyue and that was their very first trial together.

    Ji Yuan said to Qiu Xiuyu, "My beloved Xiuyu, from today onward, I''m going to cultivate my heart. You ought to do the same as well."

    Qiu Xiuyu asked with stammering lips, "My lord, what do you mean? You are looking down on me?"

    "No, not that." Ji Yuan sighed as he looked at the surrounding. "What if someone visit the ce and saw the mess and your reputation will be ruined."

    Qiu Xiuyu had a guilty look as she already known that the entire abode and even the surrounding areas were messy with their lovemaking acts.

    She sighed woefully, "My lord, you are right. It is time for us to clean out our mess."

    Ji Yuan proceeded to hand her high grade spirit stones and many other profound pills, "These are for you to cultivate."

    Qiu Xiuyu was shocked to see so many high grade spirit stones; there isn''t a lot of high grade spirit stones in the entire mortal celestial fraternity!

    "Is it really for me?" Qiu Xiuyu was shocked as she turned to ask Ji Yuan for permission to take it.

    Ji Yuanughed, "It is quitemon in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    But secretly he was thinking; even for me, high grade spirit stones are hard to obtain outside the trial. But luckily I got several wealthy consorts recently. Haha¡­

    Ling Feiyue and Jiajia should be very wealthy.

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden as he suddenly recalled that he was the Dark Lord of Ling Feiyue''s Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Wait a minute. Where is my stipend? As the Dark Lord, maybe my monthly sry is worth high grade spirit stones!

    Qiu Xiuyu saw Ji Yuan''s expressions and asked curiously, "My lord, what is wrong?"

    Ji Yuan attention was quickly returned to Qiu Xiuyu as he bitterly said, "My beloved Xiuyu, you must remember this. It doesn''t matter how high your cultivation talent is. The most important is that you must have cultivation resources, able to cultivate in a mountain with high spiritual aura and have lots of high grade spirit stones."

    Qiu Xiuyu: ???

    "My lord, cultivation talent is not important?"

    In all her cultivation life, she has always been taught that cultivation talent is the most important factor and that is why she is able to advance to the Crisis Realm and be a top cultivator in the True Origin Celestial Sect.

    Ji Yuan exined to her, "Trust me on this. Although cultivation talent does y a part but if you not rich, you can''t advance to a golden saint in the Celestial Realm!"

    Seeing that Qiu Xiuyu had a lost look, Ji Yuan continued solemnly. "In the future when you ascend to the Celestial Realm, remember to join a celestial sect with rich spiritual auras and never a poor one. Or else you will be screwed."

    Qiu Xiuyu slowly smiled, "Then my lord must be a rich cultivator. Why don''t I join your celestial sect?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    My Orthodox Sword Sect and Emperor Hall Sect must currently be in debt now especially when my beloved Chengxi and Yan''Er have now joined Jiajia to increase their cultivation. I have so many parasites that are bleeding me dry every month¡­

    It is not easy to run a sect¡­

    He suddenly had a bright idea; maybe my Qianxue, Feiyue, Sisi and Jiajia can consider giving me some aids. They certainly look like the richest cultivators in my harem¡­

    But Ji Yuan quickly said to her, "Remember that I am in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. There are many celestial fraternities in the Celestial Realm and each one of the celestial fraternity is separated by an almost impassable barrier. Although it isn''t impossible to cross the treacherous barrier but you have to cultivate as a golden saint first for there are many deste beasts around and many evil cultivators."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped, "There are also evil cultivators in the Celestial Realm?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Unlike the lower mortal realm where you can ascend by cultivating your heart, there are many cultivators that are born celestials in the Celestial Realm. They are actually the majority and is like themon people."<sub> </sub>

    He further exined, "In the Celestial Realm, Golden Celestials and Ascended Celestials are lofty existences and you can literally roam without fear most of the time. But the real arrogant cultivators are the Golden Supremacies and 80% of the time, they are the real powers in the Celestial Realm."

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded as she eagerly tried to absorb what was being revealed to her about the Celestial Realm. This was a golden opportunity for her to learn.

    She asked, "Then what about the 20% of the time?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "20% of the time, you will have the extreme unluckiness to meet with a golden saint."

    Qiu Xiuyu asked curiously, "Aren''t golden saints highly enlightened celestials?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Not in the Celestial Realm. They can be extreme bastards at times and look down on anyone who is below the golden saint cultivation realm."

    "But my lord, aren''t you a golden saint and a Daluo Jinxian at the same time?" Qiu Xiuyu asked with some hesitation.

    Ji Yuan solemnly said, "Trust me. I can be a bastard at times too."

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was not lying to her.

    Most of his golden supremacy and golden saint brothers are arrogant and unmindful of their words. Because they are a lofty existence for such a long period of time and live longer than most celestials that cannot be a golden celestial, they all tend to be careless in their behaviors.

    Qiu Xiuyu asked, "Then how do I avoid the golden saints?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "This is easy. Just avoid the rich spiritual aura regions and the trading cities. The golden saints usually won''t visit the poorer regions. Haha."

    Qiu Xiuyu pondered for a while before she asked curiously, "But my lord, you told me to go to the rich regions earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Right¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu returned a gentle smile, "I am only teasing my lord. I am going to look for you after I''ve ascended. You will remember me, am I right?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course I will remember you. You are my beloved consort."

    But Li Ye won''t be happy that I have green him and have seduced his woman¡­I am screwed¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly recalled that he still had a trial that was on-going so he said, "My beloved Xiuyu, you promise to take me to the sect''s spiritual veins. When will you take me there?"

    Qiu Xiuyu turned her face away and there was a guilty look in her eyes so she did not want Ji Yuan to see it.

    But she quickly turned her head around with a beautiful smile, "My lord, before that. I have a good news to share with you. Do you want to hear it?"

    Ji Yuan asked with a perplexed look, "Of course I do since it is a good news. What is it?"

    Qiu Xiuyu lowered her eyes shyly before saying almost inaudibly, "I am with a child now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am really screwed now¡­

    Or rather I have screwed Li Ye really hard now¡­

    Ji Yuan has almost forgotten that it is easier for a lower level celestial to have a child, especially when he had consumed five masculine profound pills that supposedly said to be able to bestow an increase odds of having a child with a celestial. And he had used it almost exclusively on Qiu Xiuyu...

    In the Celestial Realm, it is nearly impossible for two golden saints to have a child together. The higher their cultivation realm, it is more difficult. That is why it is widely eptable for the male high level cultivators to have a harem because of this very same reason or else most of them will be without any descendants; they will often pick a much low level celestial and many will even pick a first realm celestial out of desperation.

    Of course, this only applies to the high level male celestials. As for the high level celestial maidens, it is almost impossible for them to marry down to a short lived celestial. But when it does happen, it is called true love.

    But usually most of the time, the high level celestial maidens will have extremely high standards when choosing their man because they know that it is quite hard for them to have any children.

    And Ji Yuan in the Deste Celestial Fraternity is their unfortunate target because he is not only beautiful but is also a romantic poet. Not to mention that he is also a Sword Saint. The only bad part about him is that he is poor and is from a poor region.

    But this does not stop the high level celestial maidens from the less well off regions from being Ji Yuan''s fangirls; to them, Ji Yuan ispatible and just right.

    But of course Ji Yuan did not know that the rich celestial maidens like Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue etc. also have their targets on him long ago...

    Actually Ji Yuan still have no idea that Li Ye did not love Qiu Xiuyu and it was only a one-sided puppy love from Qiu Xiuyu.

    Li Ye actually had a lofty ambition of dual cultivating with a celestial maiden in the Celestial Realm so that he would one day be a golden saint and to led an immortal life.

    As for Qiu Xiuyu in Li Ye''s heart, he had long forgotten about her after he had ascended to the Celestial Realm.

    But the same goes for Qiu Xiuyu. After she had seen Ji Yuan, she hadpletely cast Li Ye out of her heart and that was only because she had found her one true love.

 Chapter 403 I Am Immune To Temptations

    Ji Yuan asked Qiu Xiuyu again after a few days, "My beloved Xiuyu, can you bring me to the sect''s spiritual vein?"

    After a short hesitation Qiu Xiuyu replied, "My lord, I don''t understand why you need to go to the spiritual vein to cultivate when you have so many high grade spirit stones with you. The spiritual aura of the spiritual vein is actually much weaker."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "It is actually part of my trial."

    Qiu Xiuyu asked without understanding, "You mean your tribtions?"

    The reason why she had said that is because cultivators have to face constant tribtions in order to increase their cultivation realms as they are constantly defying the heavens.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Erm, actually that is why I am here in the mortal realm. I don''t have any ill-intentions and I just need to touch the spiritual vein."

    Qiu Xiuyu quickly said, "It is not that I don''t believe my lord but¡­"

    She began to sigh before saying, "The spiritual vein is heavily guarded by the elders of the True Origin Celestial Sect and it is forbidden to bring anyone inside. Not even the inner court core prot¨¦g¨¦s are allowed inside. I am really in a dilemma."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly and he fully understood why.

    The spiritual vein of a celestial sect is considered extremely sacred and is the source of spiritual auras in the entire mountain vicinity. Cultivators depend on the spiritual auras of the mountains to cultivate into their inner spiritual sea in order to expand their inner cultivation core.

    Usually the spiritual vein is extremely difficult to find and even established celestial ns have to spend centuries in order to locate it deep inside the mountains.

    The reason why spiritual vein is so extremely hard to locate is because it is undetectable by the cultivators'' divine sense and is everywhere, just like the light from the sun is everywhere; the cultivators are able to know that the vicinity has spiritual auras but they simply cannot see it.

    Also, while spiritual veins in the Celestial Realm are almost everywhere and are divided into many tiers of strength but in the lower mortal realm, the spiritual veins are few in between. Those mountains that have spiritual veins are usually the holy mountains of the mortal celestial fraternity.

    That is another reason why it is usually heavily guarded lest an enemy is to destroy their holy mountain''s spiritual veins.

    Ji Yuan was now beginning to understand why even Senior Mo Bei was roaming the outer pce of the Pangu Citadel and why he had kept failing.

    He began to curse silently; this trial was not easy at all!

    He had betrayed his flesh only to gain nothing at all.

    He quickly corrected himself; oh well, I didn''t really lose much¡­haha¡­and now I''m going to gain a baby¡­

    Thinking of his unborn baby, he now had a terrible headache. He certainly didn''t want to leave his unborn baby and beloved Xiuyu in the mortal realm anymore but he is also at his wits end on how they are going to meet in the Celestial Realm in the future, even if Fairy Qiu Xiuyu can manage to ascend to the Celestial Realm.

    Seeing his disappointed look, Qiu Xiuyu quickly said. "My lord, I will surely think of a way. Please believe in me, will you?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Of course I do believe in my beloved Xiuyu."

    She quickly said, "My lord. There is a recent bad news that the heretic cultivators areunching an attack on the orthodox celestial ns with a fearsome deste beast that they have found. One of the nearby orthodox celestial n had been attacked several days ago and they are seeking our help to help them to fight back the heretic cultivators. ordingly to the news, the heretic cultivators are actuallying our way."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan muttered.

    Qiu Xiuyu smiled, "Don''t you see it. You are a mighty golden saint that no one can fight against. This is a golden opportunity for you to save the orthodox celestial fraternity from the heretic cultivators and hence, you may be rewarded as a hero. And you can make use of this opportunity to request to meditate inside the sacred chamber where the spiritual veins are located."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly.

    There was no joy when he had heard this.

    It was because he could not be able to kill anyone in this trial. Moreover he had his profound strength being restricted to the peak of the fourth cultivation realm. Not only that, he could not even use his two saintly divine swords because he did not even have the profound strength to wield them now.

    Nice working from this stupid trial.

    But still he managed tough, "Haha. No problem. Leave everything to me. But I don''t like to kill anyone even if they are heretic cultivators."

    This was a tant lie.

    <o>,m How Ji Yuan wished that he could just storm to where the mountain''s spiritual veins were located and kicked everyone asses just toplete this trial.</o>

    Except that the trial has ced a restriction on the cultivators undertaking this trial; no deaths or permanent injuries to be inflicted upon any of the mortals in the mortal realm or the trial will fail.

    Ji Yuan was thinking; what if some random first realm cultivator attacks me and I kick him too hard? Then I will fail this stupid trial for no apparent reason¡­<sub> </sub>

    He was more afraid of breaking their bones because he was too used to fighting with the other golden celestials and the powerful deste beasts.

    Qiu Xiuyu suddenly grabbed his arm as she rubbed against him, "My lord, we have not been intimate for many days now¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately recited the Divine Heart Intricacy to resist all temptations; he was very determined to stop his degeneration and to find a cure for himself.

    "Yes, yes! Go bang her!" Xiang Li was suddenly giggling excitingly in his soul sea.

    "Xiang Li, no." Ji Yuan frowned to her.

    Suddenly Qiu Xiuyu was suddenly kissing Ji Yuan passionately as she moaned softly.

    Ji Yuan was about to protest when he felt her tongue inside his mouth.

    All of a sudden his defenses broke as he caught of Qiu Xiuyu''s swaying hips and he could not resist rubbing her back and down between her legs.

    He could feel her wet panties below¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu smiled shyly, "My lord, I know that you are not in the moodtely but please let your beloved consort service you instead."

    And she had expertly loosened Ji Yuan''s robe.

    Or rather Ji Yuan had released his profound strength on his belt¡­

    After several weeks of special training by Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly be quite an expert in pleasuring Ji Yuan.

    And after several days of self-control, Ji Yuan''s masculine profound pills that he had consumed were back to its full potency again.

    Also there was Xiang Li who was giggling nonstop, "Big Brother, you are a man, aren''t you? What are you waiting for? Or are you not a man?"

    Fairy Anyang was literally speechless.

    Not at Xiang Li but at Ji Yuan because Ji Yuan was now eagerly pulling down Qiu Xiuyu''s wet panties aside and he was fingering her inside.

    She could only sigh weakly, "Men are always¡­like men¡­what happens to the cultivation of the heart¡­this trial is about the cultivation of the heart¡­"

    She doubted very much that Ji Yuan was even paying attention to her now¡­

    But Xiang Li''s voice was loud and audible in Ji Yuan''s mind.

    Ji Yuan was even replying to Xiang Li, "Of course I am a man! A true man. Watch me, Xiang Li!"

    The voice of the heart demon is always louder than the good soul conscious.

    Ji Yuan and Qiu Xiuyu were both naked as they engaged in their pleasure making; they had suppressed for too long and their pipes were already at bursting point.

    "Xiuyu, I''m going to ride you and bang you for night to dawn." Ji Yuan dered as he salivated her beautiful body.

    Qiu Xiuyu shyly replied, "I am ready for this. My lord, please fill me up¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not wait as he spread her legs and looked eagerly below, "I''m going to bang my master¡­"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "This is too lewd. I can''t bear to watch this anymore."

    Xiang Li giggled, "But you''re still watching it."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 404 It Is The End

    Ji Yuan indeed had a long lovemaking session with Qiu Xiuyu thatsted from night to almost dawn.

    He was literally unstoppable.

    The entire room was extremely messy, messy with their outrageous lovemaking sessions; there were no ce that that had been untouched by them.

    Qiu Xiuyu had already lost her consciousness but Ji Yuan was still fondling her perky firm boobs and he was holding her arms backward as he rode her nonstop from behind.

    He had facialized her with his seemingly unlimited cum due to the masculine profound pills'' effects and also filled her up but it was so overfilling that he had covered her entire body with his precious cum.

    Qiu Xiuyu was really very beautiful and also, she was also very docile but bold when ites to love making.

    Ji Yuan could not understand why Li Ye could not like her because most of the celestial maidens paled inparison to her.

    He was worried what Li Ye may think of him when he has discovered that he is with Qiu Xiuyu¡­

    Ji Yuan really like his new ''master'' Qiu Xiuyu too much even though they were together for such a short time.

    He began to sigh bitterly when he thought that he may be leaving her soon.

    Just the past few weeks alone, he had already lost count how many times he had made love to Qiu Xiuyu but it was not exaggerating to say that it exceeded his harem in the Celestial Realm!

    He really liked her softs because it was very real but of course she was not as tough as the celestial maidens so she tended to moan more but it was extremely thrilling to Ji Yuan.

    And he really liked to touch all her beautiful parts¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to fire more of his load, his sharp ears had picked up something outside.

    He was immediately rmed and had turned ashen!

    His eyes had suddenly turned murderous and he quickly covered Qiu Xiuyu with a nket while putting on his golden robe around him as he shed out of the room.

    No way he must allow their affair to be discovered by anyone and even if he has to silence the intruder and fail the trial, he must not allow his master Qiu Xiuyu''s reputation to be ruined by anyone or this may also affect her ascension.

    He began to curse silently; why am I so reckless. Of all days, I have to pick today to be horny¡­

    As he shed outside, he was quite startled that the intruder had also noticed him and had shed away.

    Ji Yuan was fast enough but he had not expected that there was an intruder in the mortal realm that could match his speed.

    So he increased his speed to sh ahead but after a while, he was startled again; it was because the intruder was still able to sh ahead of him and he had not caught up with the intruder.

    But he was soon smiling wryly because the direction that the intruder had picked was a dead end that led to a steep cliff.

    "Haha!" Ji Yuan chuckled as he caught up with the intruder who was startled to see a dead end after the forest.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan was the one that was startled because he had recognized a familiar upper face mask from the intruder and her figure was all too familiar to him; she was Yun Chi!

    "It is you? Yun Chi, I really miss you!" Ji Yuan gasped with shock upon seeing her again.

    He had recognized her ever beautiful small lips, her beautiful bosoms and butt¡­

    But Yun Chi hummed coldly, "I''m sorry that I''ve just interrupted your despicable moment. I didn''t think that you are so despicable to force yourself on a maiden like this and to think that you are a golden saint from the so call orthodox celestial fraternity!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It isn''t what you think it is. Xiuyu is just unconscious from our passionate lovemaking. I really didn''t force myself on her¡­"

    "Well, I don''t believe in you." Yun Chi interrupted him coldly. "I''m so sorry foring at the wrong timing¡­"

    "Haha, you havee at the right timing. Yun Chi, do you know how much I am missing you?" Ji Yuan interrupted as he gripped her shoulder.

    Yun Chi raised her hand to knock him away but Ji Yuan grinned as he blocked it, "We''re both peaked fourth realm cultivators here. Even if you are a mighty goddess, you may need to try harder than this to shake me off."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued, "Yun Chi, why are you here?"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "Of course you won''t want to see me here."

    "Oh no!" Ji Yuan protested strongly. "I really d to see you here!"

    As Ji Yuan was about to go forward to grab Yun Chi again, Yun Chi had unleashed dozens of divine swords from her back as de wings.

    This startled Ji Yuan as he quickly stepped back to avoid getting hit by the dozens of divine swords that were lining around Yun Chi in a protective manner.

    "You can use your divine swords here?" Ji Yuan was stunned. "Where did you get your profound strength?"

    Yun Chi returned a wry smile, "That is because I am not as weak as you. My divine swords are part of me therefore I can use it."

    All of a sudden her dozens of immortal divine swords began to form into a single feathered sword and her killing air surged immediately. "Ji Yuan, you are so unlucky to have met me here. Today, I am going to kill you here. Without your divine swords to protect you, you''re nothing¡­"

    "Woot." Ji Yuan gasped as he interrupted. "Yun Chi, you also have a saint-step divine sword? So this is your secret trump card? I am truly impressed. Howe your saintly sword seems more powerful than mine?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She muttered exasperatingly, "Are you deaf? I am going to kill you. Who needs your praises about my divine sword¡­"

    "You won''t kill me." Ji Yuan cut in with a loud chuckle. "If you really want to kill me, you would have already killed me when I was pursuing you. Haha¡­"

    "Don''t be too sure about this." Yun Chi suddenly said as she sent her sword to sh toward Ji Yuan.

    In that instant, dozens of sword energies had shed and exploded onto Ji Yuan, sending him to fly backward with a tremendous crash.

    Ji Yuan had tried to avoid the sword energies but there were simply too many plus Yun Chi was standing at point nk at him, making it even harder for him to evade her attacks. Moreover Yun Chi''s reflexes were actually on par with him.

    Ji Yuan moaned painfully on the ground, "Yun Chi, you want to kill your future lord¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Stop pretending. I won''t fall for it. My attacks are only fourth realm profound strength and moreover you''re protected by your golden robe." Yun Chi hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly as he moaned even more painfully. "But you have got a saintly divine sword¡­"

    "Stop your faking and get up. You are pathetic." Yun Chi said coldly.

    Ji Yuanughed as he got up again. "Haha but it is really painful. Even though the attacks don''t hurt me so much but you''ve bled my heart and causing it to be heartbroken because my future consort wants to kill her future lord."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She inhaled heavily before saying woefully, "Don''t you get it? We are enemies. Today only one of us can leave this ce alive. Draw your sword. I don''t want to kill a defenseless man."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Although I am enemy with the Death God Mingwang but I am not enemy with Yun Chi. Yun Chi, I like it more when you are smiling. Why are you so cold to me?"

    This time Yun Chi smiled but it was a cold smile. "That is because I am only trying to get close to you and to study your weakness. Simple as that. I must admit that you are a worthy opponent-"

    "You mean a worthy dual cultivation lord to you." Ji Yuan interrupted with loud chuckle.

    "Go to hell!" Yun Chi suddenly swung her sword as a sh of sword energies exploded next to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed, "That will surely hurt if it hits."

    Yun Chi hummed, "You think that I dare not hit you? I just don''t want to kill a defenseless man."

    Ji Yuan began to turn solemn, "Yun Chi, I know you love me and I love you. So why can''t we be together? Why can''t you join me?"

    Yun Chi answered softly, "Hmph. I am a true goddess of the Deste Realm and I am eternal while you are just a cultivator that is still dreaming of immortality. Do you know that all the true gods of the Deste Realm are already here in the Celestial Realm? You are not their match. Sooner orter, this Celestial Realm will turn into the new Deste Realm. Since you''re about to die, let me tell you one more thing, the immortals of the Immortal Realm won''t being to aid the celestials because we have blocked the spatial space between the two realms now."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That may be the case but I will fight all the true gods of the Deste Realm then."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "You should hide instead. Are you too dense to realize that you are just like a roving ant in front of us?"

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before saying, "I am not too stupid to realize that. But I have many love ones to protect. I can''t allow the Celestial Realm to fall into the hands of the nefarious gods of the Deste Realm do you agree with me?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan looked at the heavens with a heavy sigh, "Now I''ve finally understood why Jiajia had a heavy heart when Ist saw her. She carries a heavy burden on her."

    Yun Chi knew who Jiajia was because she had overheard Shui Xisi talking about her Sister Feifei whom Ji Yuan had called Jiajia many times.

    "I don''t know how you manage to seduce the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice but I''m impressed by your lecherous charm." Yun Chi hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "When did I ever seduce the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice?"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "Not one but two. You mean you don''t know that your Jiajia and Sisi are both are the daughters of the Great Goddess Alice?"

    JI Yuan blinked his eyes and was stunned; he really did not know¡­

    And he had already banged Shui Xisi many times¡­

    Then won''t the immortal gods of the Immortal Realm be after his life from now¡­

    Oh crap¡­

    "You are really an idiot." Yun Chi smiled coldly.

    Ji Yuan stammered, "You must have got this wrong somewhere. It is impossible¡­"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "She is probably dead by now."

    Ji Yuan was shocked as he shed forward to grip Yun Chi. "What did you just say?!"

    Yun Chi turned her head away, "I am sent here to destroy the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. In the meantime outside, the Great Demon Lord had already sent the Deste Dragon God Longdi to destroy the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce. That is right, we have already known that Saintess Fang Zhengfei is also the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce and she is also your Jiajia."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly fallen on his knees and he was shaking all over, "No, not Jiajia¡­"

    Yun Chi was suddenly startled to see that Ji Yuan was suddenly weeping silent tears¡­

    She was suddenly at a loss too¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stood up and he had turned around to walk away.

    Yun Chi was quite startled that Ji Yuan had suddenly walked away without saying a single word.

    So she quickly called out from behind him, "Are you going to fight the Great Demon Lord and the Deste Dragon God Longdi? Forget it. You have no hope of winning against them. In their ultimate forms, they can use the sacred powers of their saintly swords without any restrictions."

    Then she paused for a while before sighing softly. "And when I''ve destroyed the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the restrictive seal of the Great God Pangu will be removed and they will be unstoppable."

    Ji Yuan continued to walk away.

    Yun Chi continued, "But you do have a chance. You can kill me and this will make your future fight easier with them."

    Ji Yuan paused in his steps before saying quietly, "The maidens that I love, I''ll never fight them."

    Then he had walked away.

    This time, it was Yun Chi who was trembling¡­

 Chapter 405 This Is Not The End

    Ji Yuan was dejected as he walked slowly back to his abode.

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were both trying their best to cheer him up but to no avail.

    The thought that Jiajia had already been killed shattered Ji Yuan''s will¡­

    When Shui Xisi reminded him that her sister was someone special and she had told him not to give her up, he had thought that it was only a joke.

    It is because if Jiajia is special then Sisi is also special for they are sisters.

    But he had never known that his Jiajia will actually be the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice, the Empress of the Immortal Realm.

    Moreover Jiajia had lied to him about her background but he was convinced that she was telling the truth.

    At that time he could only sigh that Jiajia must havee from a dysfunctional family since her sister and half-sister do not stay together.

    He was not one who was overtly concerned about someone''s personal family matters so he did not ask for more details.

    But now Jiajia is dead.

    JI Yuan''s heart was bleeding with indescribable heartache because Jiajia was the first maiden that renewed his interest in women again after so many years.

    Also without her, he had no motivation to breakthrough to be a saint and he got his first divine sword from her as well.

    The way that they had met was funny too. On their very first meeting, Ji Yuan could not resist touching her butt and he was pleased with it. Luckily, Jiajia did not p him¡­

    At the time, he was thinking that he may have already screwed up his romance with her¡­

    He began to recall how Jiajia had fooled him into battling the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce and Jiajia turned out to be the Divine Pce Master herself.

    He was trying his best to protect Jiajia from the Divine Pce Master and he did not think that it was only a test by Jiajia.

    Come to think of that, why should the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce dy their duel to six monthster and had even sent ''his'' aides to protect him.

    And without Jiajia, he would never have met Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, two of the best maidens in the Celestial Realm that would eventually be his consorts.

    In a way, Jiajia interest in him brought him to the world of the rich and mighty celestials that he did not want to have anything to do with.

    But the main reason why he was so despondent was that all the other maidens that he has loved were all with Jiajia.

    He was depressed over their fates¡­

    Xue Qianxue¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi¡­

    Shangguan Yan¡­

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo¡­

    Hua Wuwu¡­

    Hua Baiyue¡­

    Ling Tianshui¡­

    Ji Yuanmented silently; Jiajia, didn''t you say that you will be with me once I''ve be a romantic cultivator?! Why did you lie to me? How dare you leave me alone¡­

    "Hey! Why are you in such a hurry?" Yun Chi had suddenly shed in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan raised his hand to push her away, "Get out of my way!"

    To his surprise, Yun Chi had suddenly gasped softly and had fallen to the ground.

    Just when Ji Yuan was about to apologize to her, he had suddenly realized that she may only be yacting so he gave a cold hum before walking off again.

    "Ji Yuan, you are really vicious." Yun Chi said unruly. "You didn''t even want to help me up."

    Ji Yuan stopped in his tracks but he did not turn around. "You have legs so why can''t you pick yourself up? Leave me alone. I am not in a good mood."

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "I am not in a good mood too. So is this the way that you treat someone that you im to love? How vicious!"

    Ji Yuan turned around to frown unhappily, "I am vicious? Isn''t this the other way round."

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "You''re not vicious? If you are not vicious, will you push your unborn child and me to the ground?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly rushed to help Yun Chi up, "You¡­are¡­really pregnant?"

    Yun Chi turned her eyes away shyly as she nodded lightly.

    "This is impossible, right? Didn''t you purge it after our love making session?" Ji Yuan asked with trembling lips.

    "Hmph!" Yun Chi sighed. "This is my mistake."

    She had lied about purging the aftermath of their love making but now she was regretting it.

    "But this is impossible." Ji Yuan shook his head with great disbelief. "You are a goddess. How is it possible for you to be pregnant on your first time?"

    Yun Chi said bitterly, "Don''t ask me. Ask yourself! I didn''t think that you can be so fertile."

    Ji Yuan began tough bitterly as well; haha. It is the fault of the five masculine profound pills. One masculine profound pill is supposed to give increase fertility for one month but I''ve swallowed five at one go¡­

    But he could feel that he had almost purged most of the effects of the masculine profound pills by now, after weeks of constant love making with Qiu Xiuyu.

    Yun Chi added coldly, "I really didn''t think that you can be so fertile but it seems that it is only because you are just a lowly celestial, that''s why."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly; that was what he had thought of Qiu Xiuyu when he had first learnt that she is pregnant.<sub> </sub>

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could hear a soft feminine melody voice, "Mama, is he my bad papa? Why did he push you down? Is he also the same man that makes you cry? Then I don''t want him to be my papa anymore."

    Yun Chi suddenly patted her belly as she smiled, "Yes, he is your bad papa indeed. He is just an uncultured barbarian."

    Ji Yuan was startled and he was shaking all over, "Is that our daughter? She can talk?"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "Of course she is our daughter, you irresponsible man. How can you suggest otherwise?"

    But she soon disyed a smile to say most casually, "Our daughter is a divine because I am a true goddess. Naturally she can talk while in my womb."

    Ji Yuan quickly reached his fingers to Yun Chi''s belly and said, "You are my daughter? Haha. I am actually a good papa and not a bad papa. Your mama is actually the bad mama¡­"

    Yun Chi suddenly knocked Ji Yuan''s fingers away from her belly with an angry hum, "What did you just say?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a soft chuckle, "I am educating our daughter."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly began to stammer, "Sorry, I didn''t know that you''re with child. I¡­didn''t mean to push you like this. Yun Chi, I really love you but I am really not in a good mood."

    Yun Chi folded her arms as she said casually, "Maybe Jiajia is still alive."

    "What did you just say?" Ji Yuan was suddenly hopeful again.

    Yun Chi said, "Your Jiajia is someone that we have been trying to track for years but to no avail. It is only because of Shui Xisi that we have learnt of her hideout."

    "What does Sisi has to do with this?" Ji Yuan asked suddenly.

    "She borrows a ninth rank epic blue phoenix from Jiajia and that is how we know the hideout of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce." Yun Chi smiled coldly.

    Ji Yuan shook her head as he muttered, "I''ve better not tell Sisi or she will be ming herself for her sister''s death¡­"

    But he quickly looked up again, "You just say that Jiajia is not dead. Is it true?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "Although there is a n to attack the hideout of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce but your Jiajia is not there for sure. We know that she is at the settlements."

    Ji Yuan began to sigh with relief, "That is good to hear¡­"

    "But we have also sent a force to attack the settlements as well." Yun Chi interrupted.

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted, "What did you just say? Then, then¡­."

    Yun Chi was suddenly smiling, "Why are you so nervous for? That is only a diversion attack. I doubt that it will seed."

    Ji Yuan began to heave a soft sigh of relief again¡­

    "So Saintess Fang Zhenfei is really the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce?" Yun Chi was smiling all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan began to freeze on the spot; he had suddenly realized that he had fallen into her trap and had revealed Jiajia''s identity.

    He quickly said, "Oh no, Jiajia is Jiajia. She is not the Divine Pce Master. The Divine Pce Master is a guy."

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "Toote now. I don''t believe."

    Ji Yuan turned very solemn, "I have no other choice now but to reveal my true identity. Actually I am the real Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce¡­"

    "This is the funniest thing that I''ve ever heard." Yun Chi interrupted with more chuckles.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was frowning bitterly and at a loss, Yun Chi had suddenly stoppedughing.

    "Ji Yuan, do you really mean it when you say you love me?" There was a flush on Yun Chi''s countenance when she had asked him.

    Ji Yuan answered without any hesitation, "Of course I do. You should know my heart."

    Yun Chi sighed as she turned her eyes away, "Just now I was only ranting because I was upset at you. But actually I''ve decided to follow you from now on."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Really?!"

    He was suddenly jumping for joy as he embraced Yun Chi tightly. "Yun Chi¡­"

    "Not too tightly." Yun Chi reminded him.

    A soft feminine voice echoed, "Mama, did you say that papa is a rascal? Why are you forgiving him?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I will be a rascal?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "Yes indeed he is a rascal who has captured my heart. Your papa actually is a good papa. I am actually¡­not a good mama¡­"

    "No, mama is the best!" The soft feminine voice said.

    As Ji Yuan was holding them tightly, he had a sudden realization; wait a minute. I have another child now? Crap, I am screwed again¡­

    Fairy Anyang was floating in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she looked silently at Xiang Li who was giggling at the sight of Ji Yuan and Yun Chi reunion; the powers of the Goddess Tear are too terrifying. She can even cause Yun Chi to fall in love with my lord Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 406 The Smiling Goddess

    Ji Yuan was still holding onto Yun Chi tightly when Yun Chi asked him with great exasperation, "Can you please let go of me?"

    "I can''t. I really love you so much, Yun Chi." Ji Yuan grinned as he continued to press her intimately.

    "I don''t mind an embrace but can your hands behave themselves or do you want me to cut them off?" Yun Chi hummed softly.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; his hands were touching all over Yun Chi and were rubbing against her¡­

    "I think that is enough already." Yun Chi pushed Ji Yuan away.

    "Yun Chi, howe you are here?" Ji Yuan asked curiously as he caught hold of her hand.

    "Do you have to keep touching me?" Yun Chi frowned.

    "Haha¡­if I don''t hold my love, who do I hold then?" Ji Yuanughed.

    "You can hold your little brother." Yun Chi chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Yun Chi, you still haven''t told me why you are here?"

    Yun Chi replied, "So you are hoping that I am not here so that no one can bear witness to your misdeeds?"

    "Haha¡­we are clean." Ji Yuan insisted.

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "Like real."

    But she softened her tone, "This is my trial as well. I am sent here for my trial. But the heretic sect that I was sent to is a total mess¡­"

    "It is not safe for you to be in theirpany." Ji Yuan anxiously interrupted.

    Yun Chi giggled, "They are just a bunch of lecherous cultivators that try to drug me¡­"

    "Damn it. I am going to kill them all!" Ji Yuan flew into a rage.

    Yun Chi frowned, "Stop interrupting me. You know drugs don''t work on us."

    Golden saints and above are immune to all drugs and scents, naturally.

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed weakly. "Sorry, I''ve overreacted."

    Yun Chi smiled, "I can take care of myself. You don''t need to worry for me. I have only fallen from grace only once¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly interrupted again, "Who is he? I will kill him!"

    Yun Chi chuckled, "You can go kill yourself then."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Anyway¡­" Yun Chi continued. "These heretic cultivators don''t even know where their mountain spiritual veins are and they are only interested to attack the orthodox celestial ns. Out of exasperation, I''ve decided to leave the ce and to check the orthodox celestial ns out. Hence, I am here¡­"

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan unhappily, "And that is how I''ve witnessed your earlier misdeed."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha. Actually it isn''t what you think it is."

    He quickly added, "Maiden Xiuyu is actually my future consort."

    Yun Chi frowned unhappily, "She is a mere mortal. How can she be your future consort?"

    Ji Yuan slowly said but firmly, "I will make it happen."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "Alright then¡­" Yun Chi said after a short pause.

    "Yun Chi." Ji Yuan said hesitatingly, "So are we a couple now?"

    Yun Chi rolled her eyes, "So what do you think then?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I guess we are. After all, we already have a daughter together now."

    Yun Chi suddenly turned away, "But we are enemies. This doesn''t change this fact and moreover, you have no idea how powerful the Great Demon God is. Do you know that the reason why I am willing to be subjugated by him is because he is too terrifying."

    "I can help you to be freed of the Great Demon God. I am strong now." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    Yun Chi gasped softly before she shook her head, "You may have gained the ability to use the life force energies as your profound attack but it is a two edged sword. It will drain your life force energies at the same time. The Great Demon God is a true god. You can''t defeat him. In terms of profound power and cultivation realm, he ispletely above you by leagues."

    "I know but I will fight him nevertheless." Ji Yuan said firmly.

    "Why?" Yun Chi hummed. "This is suicide."

    Ji Yuan answered as he raised his fist, "Because I cannot allow Jiajia and all the beloved maidens to be at his mercy! I will protect all of them and this includes you."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued, "I don''t think I am a hero. But if I refuse to fight the Great Demon God, how many celestials in the Celestial Realm are able to fight him?"

    "Will you help me, Yun Chi?"

    Yun Chi sighed woefully.

    She hesitated as she examined Ji Yuan with her golden eyes before she inhaled slowly, "I have a daughter to protect now¡­"

    Again she hesitated before she nodded slowly, "There is one condition first before I help you."

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "What is it?"

    Yun Chi slowly said, "You need to persuade your beloved Qianfeng to join me. If she joins up with me, I may finally have the chance to oppose the Great Demon God. I can awaken her deste force so that she will be able to use both the deste and spiritual force at the same time."

    Ji Yuan hesitated for a while, "This is not for me to decide for her¡­"

    Yun Chi interrupted with a wry smile, "Why? Because she doesn''t like me. I know."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; that is right¡­

    Yun Chi said slowly, "Why don''t you let me talk to her first. Maybe she will be willing after hearing me out."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded but he was suddenly smiling, "Yun Chi, I so happy that you are on my side now."

    Yun Chi averted her eyes away, "But I am the enemy of the immortals. I can''t be tolerated in the Three Known Realms. My very existence is a threat to them."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course not. You''re not the Death God Mingwang but Yun Chi."

    Yun Chi turned to look at Ji Yuan, "What do you mean?"

    Ji Yuan asked her instead, "Let me ask you something first. Does anyone know you are Yun Chi?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Of course not. No one knows that I am capable of wielding dual profound energies."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That''s right. No one knows that you''re Yun Chi. What if the Death God Mingwang is killed by me instead? Then you will be Yun Chi and not the Death God Mingwang anymore."

    Yun Chi chuckled, "Only you can think of something like this."

    Ji Yuan solemnly said, "That is because I love you, Yun Chi."

    Yun Chi averted her golden eyes shyly, "Don''t talk rubbish¡­"

    "Actions speak more loudly than words." Ji Yuan had suddenly embraced Yun Chi as he whispered. "Shall we¡­"

    Yun Chiughed as she pushed him aside. "Don''t you do anything funny in front of our daughter."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He haspletely forgotten about his daughter and she has be their light bulb.

    He could only smile weakly, "Yun Chi, I like you best when you''re smiling."

    Yun Chi could not resist another smile, "Is that so? Then I shall smile for you every day then. Maybe I can give myself a new immortal title. How about the ''Smiling Goddess Yun Chi''?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he pped his hands at the same time, "That is a good idea!"

 Chapter 407 My Two â€˜Mastersâ€™

    Ji Yuan had taken Yun Chi back to his abode.

    By now, Qiu Xiuyu had woke up and she had just cleaned the room. She was wondering where Ji Yuan had gone to¡­

    When she saw that Ji Yuan had brought back a maiden back, she was quite startled; although this maiden was wearing an upper face mask but she looked perfect and Qiu Xiuyu was able to tell that she was really a peerless looking maiden behind her mask.

    But what startled her more was that this maiden also had golden eyes like Ji Yuan.

    Qiu Xiuyu quietly asked Ji Yuan, "Who is she?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Let me do the introduction."

    He gestured to Qiu Xiuyu and said, "This is my master, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu."

    "Master or lover?" Yun Chi smiled wryly.

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped softly. She was startled that the other party would suddenly ask this question and she was feeling guilty all of a sudden...

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Slowly he answered with a weakugh, "My lover as well."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly dered her to be his lover. It was because their affair was supposed to be a secret and they would both fall into disrepute should their affair be discovered; it is because master-disciple rtionship is frowned upon by the orthodox celestial ns.

    Ji Yuan next gestured to Yun Chi, "This is Maiden Yun Chi. She is my friend."

    Yun Chi frowned, "Friend or lover?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Lover."

    Qiu Xiuyu was shocked that this Maiden Yun Chi here was also Ji Yuan''s lover...

    She quicklyposed herself, "Who are you? And are you a golden celestial as well?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Naturally I am a golden celestial and I''m also Ji Yuan''s master as well."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled as she looked panicky at Ji Yuan for an answer; It is because Ji Yuan had just dered Maiden Yun Chi to be his lover and now she is his master as well?

    Ji Yuan turned to Yun Chi instead to ask, "You are my master?"

    Yun Chi giggled, "My little prot¨¦g¨¦, what happens to you? Have you lost your memory?"

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherent; you''re making me look bad in front of Xiuyu. What if she thinks that we are a bunch of evil cultivators in the Celestial Realm that have improper rtionship¡­

    Just when Ji Yuan was about to protest, he had suddenly remembered that Yun Chi had a wicked sense of humor and she would always be able to out-talk him, so he decided to keep quiet and said. "Yea, she is my master as well¡­"

    He thought; maybe she should change her immortal title to the Wicked Humor Goddess instead of the Smiling Goddess¡­<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi answered with a beautiful smile, "Now that is my good prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes¡­

    He muttered silently; actually I don''t have that kind of master fetish, you know¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu quickly raised her hands to bow respectfully, "Great Celestial Yun Chi, Xiuyu pay my respect to you¡­"

    "There is no need to be so respectful. Just be casual about it and be yourself." Yun Chi smiled as she interrupted her. "Moreover we are one family now. Just call me Yun Chi will do."

    When Qiu Xiuyu heard Yun Chi, she was flushing shyly all of a sudden.

    But she was soon stammering, "Is that alright? Since Ji Yuan is a Great Eternal Golden Celestial then his master must also be a Great Eternal Golden Celestial as well. How can I be so disrespectful as to call you by your name?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "What is so great about a Great Eternal Golden Celestial?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly to himself; of course what is so great about a Great Eternal Golden Celestial (Great Golden Saint) when you''re a great goddess¡­

    Yun Chi continued to say, "You may address me as Yun Chi. I have no issue with it. Moreover, did you hear what Ji Yuan has said earlier? We are both his lovers."

    Qiu Xiuyu averted her eyes shyly as she nodded slowly when she heard Yun Chi teases.

    Ji Yuan was frowning; Yun Chi is really shameless¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu asked curiously, "Great Celestial¡­I mean Yun Chi, may I know your celestial title?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I am the Smiling Goddess."

    Ji Yuan thought; she sure can smile so beautiful whenever she can. Her smiles can be so enthralling¡­I can''t believe that she is actually the Death God Mingwang¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu smiled back in return, "This is good to know."

    Yun Chi suddenly pulled Qiu Xiuyu to her and smiled pleasantly, "Come sister. We are going to have a little chat and sleep together. You look so tired. Don''t tell me that you didn''t sleep the whole night?"

    Qiu Xiuyu was all flustered because she was engaged in a love making session with Ji Yuan for almost the entire night and did not know how to reply to her¡­

    Ji Yuan called out to them, "Wait a minute. What about me?"

    Yun Chi turned back with a soft chuckle, "You can go sleep with yourself."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 408 The Great Beyond Goddess

    Late at night, a baby girl was looking quietly at a peerless maiden who was meditating with another beautiful maiden.

    The baby girl smiled, "This is my mama."

    She did not know how she could have left her mama''s womb but right now, she was in spirit form and was invisible to all.

    Then she appraised the other maiden, Maiden Qiu Xiuyu.

    "This is mama''s new sister."

    Qiu Xiuyu was extremely startled when Yun Chi had removed her face mask and she had never seen a maiden as peerless as Yun Chi.

    She had gasped to Yun Chi, "If all the celestial maidens are as beautiful as Sister Yun Chi, how can I retain Ji Yuan''s heart? It''s no wonder why my Patriarch Li Ye was so eager to go to the Celestial Realm to find his dual cultivation partner¡­"

    Yun Chi hadughed to her with a yful wink, "Not all celestial maidens are as beautiful as me. Forget about that whoever Li Ye. I don''t even think he can bepared to Ji Yuan at all."

    The baby girl floated invisible in the room before she made a determined will to look for her papa; I want to see papa and see what he looks like¡­"

    Previously she could only hear her mama and papa voices but she had no idea how they looked like.

    She giggled as she left the room; I give my mama a perfect 10."

    She drifted in therge abode and she found a beautiful man who was sleeping soundly in another room.

    He was muttering in his sleep, "Who needs to meditate when I am already at my peak. Sleeping is the best meditation. Haha¡­"

    The baby girl looked curiously at her papa and she looked disappointed; My papa profound strength is so weakpared to mama. Is he really my papa?

    But she could recognize her papa''s voice and moreover they were linked together heart to heart so she knows that he must be her papa.

    All of a sudden she felt herself being pulled to her papa''s soul sea and a voice asked, "Who is it and who are you?"

    The baby girl was greatly frightened and she soon found herself staring at a peerless statuesque maiden who was looking curiously at her.

    This peerless statuesque maiden had eyes like no others. Instead her eyes seemed to have many tiny stars within her ck bottomless pupils.

    Not even her mama and papa could sense her presence but this peerless statuesque maiden could.

    The peerless statuesque maiden appeared to be astonished when she saw that the intruder was only a small infant.

    "What a divine child. Your existence is truly unique."

    Then she was smiling, "So you are the daughter of Ji Yuan and Yun Chi."

    The baby girl mustered her courage to ask, "Big sister, who are you? Why are you inside my papa? Are you his mistress?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden was amused as sheughed gently, "I am not your papa''s mistress. What is your name, little girl?"

    The baby girl answered, "I''ve no name yet but my mama calls me her little precious."

    The peerless statuesque maiden nodded with a smile, "It is normal not to give you a name just yet."

    "Big sister, who are you? You haven''t answered me." The baby girl giggled all of a sudden, her fear dissipated all of a sudden. This peerless statuesque gave her a calming effect and she was suddenly unafraid.<sub> </sub>

    The peerless statuesque maiden paused for a while before she gazed nkly at the soul sea that was whirling around them.

    "Who am I? I have almost forgotten¡­how long have I been asleep?"

    She inhaled deeply as though she was searching her memories before she smiled, "You can say that I am Xiang Li. Or rather, Xiang Li is just an avatar of mine."

    The baby girl looked perplexed, "Avatar?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden simply smiled, "It isn''t important who I am. I am here to help your father Ji Yuan."

    The baby girl looked even more perplexed, "Help my papa? Is my father in danger?"

    Her mama had often whispered to her how treacherous the world of cultivation is, so she now fears for her father.

    The peerless statuesque maiden shook her head gently, "I am here to grant your papa his wish. After that, I will disappear."

    The baby girl looked confused, "I don''t want big sister to disappear. Why must you disappear after you have granted my papa his wish?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden said mncholy, "That is because I''m the Great Beyond Goddess. There are too many miseries in the world so I want to give the righteous a hope."

    The baby girl blinked her eyes before asking, "I wonder what is papa''s wish?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden smiled, "Your papa has not made his real wish yet so I do not know. But he has a secret desire so Xiang Li will help to surface it out as his wish."

    The baby girl asked, "I wonder what is papa''s secret desire?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden answered, "In his heart, he hopes that he can be a romantic cultivator so that he can be worthy of a maiden named Jiajia. And so Xiang Li is fulfilling his secret desire into bing a romantic cultivator. Your papa really has a weird desire but there is nothing bad about it. My Avatar Xiang Li is attracted by the determination in his heart and she will apany him to be a romantic cultivator until the day he finally makes his wish."

    The baby girl looked more and more perplexed, "A romantic cultivator?"

    The peerless statuesque maiden waved her hands, "You should go back now. The reason why I am talking to you is because you are the first one to wake me up from my slumber. Begone. You won''t remember our meeting, little one."

    ? And the baby girl was forcefully sent back to her mother''s womb and put to a slumber.

    The peerless statuesque maiden floated high above the soul sea as she slowly appraised the souls of Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang.

    None of them could see her because she existed in a higher ne than them.

    The peerless statuesque maiden seemed a little lost as she read the memories of Xiang Li and she was trembling lightly, "This Ji Yuan has taken you as his spirit consort¡­"

    Then she whispered softly, "A romantic cultivator? In all my past avatars'' memories, everyone desires to be strong and have the power to oppose their enemies and against the heavens. With power, they can have anything they want, including a harem. But this Ji Yuan only wants to be a romantic cultivator to please only a maiden. He even considers her to be more important than his beautiful beard¡­"

    As she read Xiang Li''s memories, she began to tremble and gasped again. "He did make a wish previously when his Jiajia is in danger. Xiang Li had granted him his wish to be stronger but halfway through, he had rejected Xiang Li''s wish for him. And he has even healed Xiang Li''s soul due to the wish¡­"

    She looked perplexed as she gasped again, "So Ji Yuan, you know that Xiang Li is the Goddess Tear and yet you have purposely refused to make your wish known?"

    Then she was giggling suddenly, "Oh Xiang Li. He only wants to be a romantic cultivator for Jiajia but you''ve made him a romantic cultivator to so many others¡­"

    She began to appraise Ji Yuan again, "This man is really interesting. Maybe I should stay awake for a little longer then¡­"

 Chapter 409 The Legendary Demonic Beast Dark Tyr (1)

    After a few days Ji Yuan was actually quite surprised to see that the two maidens Yun Chi and Qiu Xiuyu were actually getting along very well.

    Both of them even know that they were now pregnant with Ji Yuan''s child as well.

    They were chatty except that they did not let Ji Yuan into their conversation. This caused him to think that they were gossiping about him.

    One day, Qiu Xiuyu panicky said to everyone. "I''ve just received an urgent message from the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster that the heretic cultivators are grouping to attack our sect. The situation is not very good. They have even unsealed a legendary demonic beast the Dark Tyr to use against us."

    This got Ji Yuan and Yun Chi attention immediately as they looked curiously at her.

    "Legendary demonic beast? Sounds very badass." Ji Yuan smiled bitterly. He began to wonder if his fourth realm profound strength would be enough to defeat this legendary demonic beast.

    So he took a look at Yun Chi¡­

    Yun Chi smiled, "Don''t look at me. You''re the hero."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You are not nning to give a helping hand, is it? Even though we are on the same boat¡­

    As though Yun Chi could read his thoughts, she smiled coyly as she patted her belly. "You don''t want anything to happen to your unborn daughter, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by her reply as he muttered weakly, "Right, right¡­I''m the hero¡­"

    Even Qiu Xiuyu could not resist poking fun at Ji Yuan as she touched Ji Yuan''s belly with a yful chuckle, "My lord, you''re the only one who doesn''t have a big belly. So you will get a chance to be a hero."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he muttered, "I never want to be a hero¡­I actually never a busybody. You know heroes usually die tragically."

    That''s right. He never wants to be a hero in the first ce.

    Yun Chi chuckled, "That is why a hero is always a hero. If he doesn''t die, how can he a hero? Only heroes that die will be remembered as heroes."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Yun Chi, which side are you on?"

    She is as sharp witted as ever before¡­

    "Do you even need to ask?" Yun Chi winked at him. "Of course I''m on the hero side. Don''t worry, when you are dead, I will sing your praises to our daughter on what a great hero her father is."

    Then she whispered to her belly, "My little precious, do you agree that your father is a great hero?"

    A cute soft voice chuckled from Yun Chi''s belly, "Yes, my papa is a great hero!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    <o>,m Ji Yuan: ¡­</o>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I think I''ve better kept my mouth shut in front of Yun Chi¡­

    "My lord¡­" Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly turned solemn. "My Sister Yun Chi¡­"

    She began to sigh deeply, "This legendary demonic beast that we call the Dark Tyr cannot be underestimated and is a terrifying monster. Thousands of years ago, a dozen Ascend Realm Cultivators, the best from the seven celestial orthodox ns joined hands together to seal the Dark Tyr. Although the Dark Tyr was sealed but all the Ascend Realm Cultivators lost their lives. They were just one step to ascending the heavens to be a true celestial but¡­s¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Then this legendary demonic beast must be truly powerful."

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded, "Our ancestor patriarchs have used the seven heavenly profound treasures of the seven celestial orthodox ns to seal this monster. I didn''t think that we will bear witness to this Dark Tyr again. Indeed, a cmity is about to befall the entire seven celestial orthodox ns now."

    She added fearfully, "This Dark Tyr is unkible hence we call it the legendary demonic beast."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Yun Chi, "What do you think about this monster?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Why do you ask me? You''re the hero, not me."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he answered weakly, "This Dark Tyr is able to kill 12 half-step celestials. Naturally we can''t underestimate it. I just wonder how the heretic cultivators are able to unseal such a terrifying legendary demonic beast all of a sudden? After all, this monster had been sealed for thousands of years already. Moreover if this legendary demonic beast is so terrifying, how is it possible for the heretic cultivators to control it?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Maybe I do have an answer to that."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan said.

    "A powerful cultivator must have broken the seal and has contracted this legendary demonic beast as a spirit pet to the leader of the heretic cultivators." Yun Chi smiled.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly staring at Yun Chi before he said weakly, "You sound as if you have bear witness to it yourself. Don''t tell me that you are that ''powerful cultivator''."

    Yun Chi realized that she had a slip of tongue so she covered her mouth as she chuckled, "Why are you so smart today."

    Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Yun Chi quickly exined with a soft sigh, "The leader told me that he can bring me to his mountain spiritual vein to meditate if I can unseal the Dark Tyr for him. In the end, he brought me to his sect most secret cultivation chamber to meditate but I realize that there is no spiritual vein in that ce at all! He doesn''t even know what a spiritual vein look like¡­s!"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Sometimes the heretic cultivators can be quite ignorant. They cultivate the power profound arts and they don''t really spend that much time cultivating in meditation. Why didn''t you cripple or kill him after that?"

    Yun Chi exined, "Then I will have failed my trial. Do you want me to fail my trial?"

    Ji Yuan weakly replied, "Of course not. Or else we won''t meet in this ce."

    Yun Chi suddenly averted her golden eyes and she had a shy smile on her, "Moreover, I did promise a rascal that I won''t kill unnecessary."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­I wonder who this rascal is¡­"

    Then he suddenly asked Yun Chi, "Is this Dark Tyr powerful then since you have seen it with your very eyes."

    Yun Chiughed, "I''ve no idea."

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "Howe you have no idea?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "In front of me, this Dark Tyr looks pretty docile to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I think I''ve asked the wrong person here. Maybe she should be the one to confront this Dark Tyr then¡­"

    Yun Chi had suddenly turned solemn, "Ji Yuan, be careful. This Dark Tyr is powerful. If you want to confront this Dark Tyr then you need plenty of luck. You have to remember that you only have your fourth realm profound strength here and you can''t use your most powerful sword arts as well. "

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Thanks for sharing this with me."

    Then he added with a bitter smile, "I also can''t use my divine swords and my spirit animus here as well."

 Chapter 410 The Legendary Demonic Beast Dark Tyr (2)

    Thousands of orthodox cultivators had already gathered around a ridge that was critical to the defense of the True Origin Celestial Sect.

    These orthodox cultivators were from the seven major celestial orthodox ns and hade to help defend the True Origin Celestial Sect from the attack of the heretic cultivators.

    The ridge was narrow and was the perfect strategic ce to hold firm the positions of the celestial orthodox ns.

    It was perfect except for two little problems.

    The heretic cultivators had already unleashed the legendary demonic beast the Dark Tyr on the ridge and hundreds of cultivators from the celestial orthodox ns were either injured or dead.

    Right now, all the top cultivators from the celestial orthodox ns had just beaten a hasty retreat.

    This Dark Tyr was too formidable; it is a ck beast with nine tails that cansh from all sides, have eight limbs and a head with three horns that can generate lightning.

    The sword arts of the seven major celestial orthodox ns were futile against it. Any wounds that the Dark Tyr had received were quickly regenerated but the Dark Tyr was rarely injured because its profound defense was too formidable and moreover it could move so fast that the top cultivators from the seven major celestial ns were defending more than attacking even though they were many versus one.

    When the Dark Tyr had suddenly cut down three top cultivators in a blink of an eye with one of its nine tails, the orthodox cultivators were immediately demoralized.

    But they had a sudden hope because these three top orthodox cultivators had sacrificed their lives to cut one of its nine tails down.

    This may be a small victory but it was also a small step for the orthodox cultivators, one giant leap for the celestial orthodox fraternity!

    Just as the orthodox cultivators were cheering for their one small step and one big leap, the Dark Tyr had already fully regenerated its broken tail.

    At the same time dozens of cultivators were either wounded or killed by the lightning of the Dark Tyr.

    This forced the remnants of the top celestial orthodox cultivators to beat a hasty retreat.

    There were loud wailing from the sides of the celestial orthodox ns as they weed the remnants top cultivators back; many of the perished or seriously wounded were their elders or the gifted cultivators of their generation.

    "Master is dead¡­"

    "Our celestial n has lost so many of its geniuses¡­"

    "Almost all the next generation core prot¨¦g¨¦s are dead¡­"

    Out of 1000 top orthodox cultivators, only 300 managed to pull back and it was only because the Dark Tyr was not chasing after them across the ridge.

    That was only because the Long Tingguang the leader of the heretic cultivators wanted to jeer at the fleeing top experts of the seven major orthodox ns so he had restrained his spirit beast. "Is this the so call top experts of the seven celestial orthodox ns? I must say that I am disappointed. Maybe you may want to send your leaders to challenge my Dark Tyr instead. Muhahaha¡­"

    The heretic cultivators were allughing aloud at the same time as well.

    Many of the orthodox cultivators were indignant but they were also put down to shame¡­

    There were also many orthodox cultivators who were also secretly thinking of surrendering to the heretic cultivators in the hope that their lives would be spared from today''s carnage.

    It was because their enemy was too formidable today!

    Moreover the orthodox cultivators were also facing a second problem from the heretic cultivators that had gathered in their thousands; fighting along the heretic cultivators were 1000 Green Hulks, powerful deste apes that are twice the size of the average cultivator but they are 10 times as strong as the average cultivator and their arm muscles are as big as the biggest chest of the cultivators.

    One Green Hulk already can easily take down 10 cultivators and moreover there are 1000 of them today!

    Qiu Xiuyu and Ji Yuan had just arrived and they were in time to see the carnage and the humiliation of the orthodox cultivators.

    Yun Chi was not with them as she deemed it inconvenient for her to show up. Moreover mask or no mask, she may be recognized by the heretic cultivators because her air was too extraordinary.

    She had said to them, "I will watch the battle from afar."

    Qiu Xiuyu quickly pays her respect to Xiang Wen the prot¨¦g¨¦ grandmaster of the True Origin Celestial Sect, "My respect to sect leader."

    Xiang Wen was a middle age looking man and when he saw Qiu Xiuyu, he began to sigh loudly. "Elder Xiuyu, you are here. s, it seems that today I will be letting our Patriarch Li Ye down and the True Origin Celestial Sect will be ruined in my hands today."

    Qiu Xiuyu was also shocked when she saw the carnage.

    She had recognized many of the dead and wounded as the top cultivators from the seven celestial orthodox ns and many of them were even stronger than her in cultivation. But yet all of them grouped together was not even able to scratch the Dark Tyr.

    She felt a little foolish now because she was about to rmend her ''prot¨¦g¨¦'' Ji Yuan to fight against the Dark Tyr and she did not know how to even start the conversation now¡­

    She did not want Ji Yuan to die now¡­

    Ji Yuan had also seen the carnage and he was appraising the Dark Tyr now.

    He muttered silently; Hmm, is this really a legendary demonic beast? It is only a sixth rank profound deste monster. It is also a defense type so it will have formidable defenses, recovery and regeneration. Indeed, it may look legendary in the eyes of the cultivators here¡­

    He began to rub his chin; even a sixth rank profound beast can kill a lone saint cultivator¡­

    "Master?" Ji Yuan had turned to Qiu Xiuyu to call her. She was supposed to rmend him to fight the Dark Tyr.

    Qiu Xiuyu turned to whisper to him instead, "My lord, it is unwise for you to fight this Dark Tyr alone. Didn''t you say that your profound strength is restricted here?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I won''t die. If I die then you will have to sleep alone."

    Qiu Xiuyu had a suddenly flush on her countenance.

    Fairy Anyang muttered inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Is our lord using the same remark that Yun Chi had used on him?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "That is right. Big Brother is very petty."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am not¡­"

    But he quickly ignored them as he stepped forward as he raised his voice, "My respect to all the leaders and elders of the seven celestial orthodox ns. May I have your permission to fight this Dark Tyr?"

    When Xiang Wen and all the thousands of orthodox cultivators heard Ji Yuan, they could not resist a chuckle. It was as though they had heard the most funny thing.

    On the side of the heretic cultivators, Long Tingguang was quite startled to hear chuckles from the orthodox cultivators'' side and he was feeling a little perplexed¡­

    Xiang Wen solemnly said to Ji Yuan, "You are out of your line here. Quickly step back. This is not the time for foolish heroism¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already shed down the ridge to challenge the Dark Tyr.

    His nimbleness surprised and started many of the orthodox cultivators¡­

    But many were sarcastic against him, especially Elder Dong who had borne a grudge against him.

    "He is only a junior prot¨¦g¨¦ who wants to be a hero¡­"

    "Just because he has Fairy Xiuyu as his master, he wants to show off in front of her¡­"

    "Does he have a pig brain? He has to weight his worth first¡­"

    "He wants to challenge the Dark Tyr when so many of our top experts have already failed¡­"

    "He is too young, too simple¡­"

    "He is going to be a dead hero¡­"

    All of a sudden, dead silence began to follow¡­

    It was because Ji Yuan had not only shed in front of the Dark Tyr but he had also dismembered the legendary demonic beast in a blink of an eye.

    No one had actually seen how Ji Yuan had moved or attacked and all of a sudden the Dark Tyr was suddenly dead.

    This shocked everyone, including the heretic cultivators¡­<sub> </sub>

    They could only see two shes of light as Ji Yuan randomly took out two divine swords that he had plundered from his opponents a month earlier.

    Although he could not use his own saintly divine swords but he could always use a less inferior divine sword.

    One must know that the Dark Tyr can make dozens of attacks in a single blink of an eye and it was impossible for a cultivator to even go near to it without any support.

    But Ji Yuan had done the impossible.

    Ji Yuan chuckled to himself, "It is merely a sixth rank deste profound beast. I can handle it even with my eyes closed. Haha¡­do I even need to use my two sword spirits for this battle? I thought I may need but in the end, this is too easy."

    Then he rolled his eyes when he remembered his conversations with Yun Chi; she had me fooled¡­

    At first he was a little nervous about this fight because Yun Chi sounded as though it was going to be a deadly battle.

    He began to sh his eyes around hoping to catch a glimpse of Yun Chi as he cursed silently; she must beughing somewhere¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "Our lord is getting too conceited especially when he haspleted his True Sacred Saint Profound Art."

    Xiang Li giggled, "He has his golden core now so he is way stronger than even most sixth realm golden celestials."

    Long Tingguang was infuriated by the loss of his Dark Tyr as he shouted furiously, "Release the Green Hulks on that insolent cultivator! I want his head on the sacrificial altar and I want to drink his blood personally!"

    And a thousand Green Hulks were now charging toward Ji Yuan almost immediately.

    Qiu Xiuyu panicky raised her profound strength to shout, "Ji Yuan, quickly turn back. We will support you¡­"

    Xiang Wen was still stunned from what he was seeing and he could only manage a hoarse voice, "Yes¡­we will support you¡­hero¡­"

    He was not the only one that was in disbelief and stunned on the spot. Thousands of them were all stunned that such a formidable Dark Tyr was just killed like this that they did not even know how to react when Long Tingguang had suddenly unleashed the hordes of Green Hulks to attack Ji Yuan.

    But instead of pulling back, Ji Yuan started to sh ahead, stunning everyone.

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "These Green Hulks are all deste monsters so they are not cultivators, am I right? So I won''t fail my trial if I kill them."

    Then he chuckled as he took down the first Green Hulk, "Don''t me me. me yourself for being green in color. I hate green most."

    In a blink of an eye, Ji Yuan had taken down another ten Green Hulks.

    All the heretic and orthodox cultivators were stunned by what they were seeing; they could only see Ji Yuan walking very slowly as he took down one Green Hulk after one another. They could not see his swords because he was swinging his sword arms so fast that his swords were like shes of light.

    All they could only see were that this Ji Yuan was not only a master of the sword but he was also a sword energy practitioner as he literally exploded the vicinity with his deadly sword energies, cutting down one Green Hulk with a sh of light and ying more as the swing of his sword exploded behind the dead.

    From dozens of dead Green Hulk, it quickly bes hundreds of dead Green Hulks.

    Everyone was stunned with disbelief; it was as though Ji Yuan had unlimited stamina and he could still keep fighting with his optimize prowess!

    Although Ji Yuan''s profound strength was restricted in the mortal realm but his recovery was never restricted. Using the profound strength of a fourth realm cultivator with the astonishing recovery of a great saint is like taking a walk for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was like a battle god and a god of war as he ughtered all the Green Hulks and it did not even take him long as a thousand corpses soon littered all over the ce.

    Everyone was too startled because one Green Hulk is pretty strong even for a high level cultivator like Fairy Xiuyu and moreover Ji Yuan had just taken down 1000 Green Hulks!

    Long Tingguang stammered when he saw the carnage as he lifted his middle finger, "This¡­is¡­not¡­over yet¡­"

    Then he was hastily beating a retreat.

    "Great Supreme Leader, where are you going?!" Many of the elders of the heretic cultivators were stunned as they called after him. "Didn''t you just say it is not over yet?"

    Long Tingguang turned back to say bitterly, "If we stay around here then it is truly over for all of us. Are you stupid or what? Hurry and sound the retreat rm!"

    "But¡­but¡­"

    "No but!" Long Tingguang continued to say bitterly, "Have you ever seen someone with sword energies with this kind of range and deadliness? Even before we can even say hello to him, we will already be dead!"

    Then he pointed to the same group of elders who had tried to act brave in front of him. "Since you are not afraid then you shall act as our rearguard and to cover our retreat from this monster."

    The elders: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere Yun Chi was smiling as she watched the battle on top of a tree, "So Ji Yuan, so this is your hidden trump card. You are indeed the fastest sword in the Deste Celestial Realm and maybe even in the entire Celestial Realm."

    Today she had finally witnessed how fast Ji Yuan''s sword truly was; his speed attack was so fast that his sword had tripled the prating power without a need to triple his triple power.

    That was how the Dark Tyr was yed instantly when Ji Yuan had bypassed its profound defenses in an instant.

    Ji Yuan had a reputation as the fastest sword in the Deste Celestial Realm even when he was just a golden supremacy.

    Few had actually witnessed how fast his sword was but several top swordsmen had acknowledged that Ji Yuan was the fastest sword hence they had spread the word.

    Since this was only the mortal realm and Ji Yuan would not see them again, so for the very first time in ages he had disyed his true sword speed.

    Ji Yuan''s right sword arm was much faster than his left sword arm. In recent years, he had been secretly training his left sword arm to be equally as fast.

    Yun Chi began to sigh all of a sudden, "He is too unfathomable. I''ve almost let down my guard against him¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Fairy Anyang was also stunned when she saw Ji Yuan speed attack, "I didn''t know our lord can attack so fast¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed unabashedly, "Haha, usually I only use my best speed when I am dueling with someone."

    Fairy Anyang said quietly, "This type of speed cannot be easily aplished by most cultivators. How did you manage to push yourself beyond your limits?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am afraid this is my secret as Sword Saint."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I know how Big Brother is able to push beyond his limits!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Xiang Li, go ahead and make your guess but you will never be able to guess correctly."

    Xiang Li winked at him, "Although I''m your useless Xiang Li but I understand you all too well so I will be able to guess correctly!"

    "Go ahead!" Ji Yuanughed even more loudly. "Prove me wrong then."

    No one would be able to know the tedious training that he had been through, much less Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother must be practicing very hard at pulling down panties of the maidens without they ever realizing it, that''s why."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, we really need to talk for once. For real¡­"

 Chapter 411 Ancestor Patriarch Ji Yuan

    When Ji Yuan had climbed up the ridge where all the seven major celestial orthodox ns were all watching, everyone was greeting him with stunned disbelief.

    Even Qiu Xiuyu was stunned.

    Didn''t her lord tell her that his profound strength is restricted here?

    Did this lone cultivator just banished the Dark Tyr, a thousand of the Green Hulks and caused the heretic cultivators to all beat a hasty retreat?

    Xiang Wen the prot¨¦g¨¦ leader of the True Origin Celestial Sect was the most stunned because all the other prot¨¦g¨¦ leaders and elders from the other six celestial orthodox ns were all looking at him as though they were all asking him; howe we didn''t know that the True Origin Celestial Sect has such a formidable cultivator?

    Xiang Wen was smiling bitterly as though he was saying; I don''t even know who this cultivator is till today. His name is Ji Yuan? Never heard of him before this¡­

    All of a sudden all the cultivators that wereughing at Ji Yuan earlier were rendered speechless when they saw him returning now.

    And many were also staring at the two divine swords that were in Ji Yuan''s hands.

    How could a mere ordinary cultivator possibly have two divine swords?

    Only Qiu Xiuyu was smiling and she was all too d that Ji Yuan had made his way back unscathed.

    Xiang Wen blinked his eyes as he stared at Ji Yuan, not knowing what to say or do in front of this Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan knew that he was now in the center of everyone''s attention as everyone was watching him but he was unfazed.

    Heughed softly as he dissipated his Mystic Eyes Profound Skill to reveal his golden eyes all of a sudden, "You must all be guessing who I am, am I right? Actually I am a golden celestial from the Celestial Realm and I am here to lend a helping help to the seven major celestial orthodox ns."

    Fairy Anyang frowned in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "This is too shameless. Only our lord can say something like this."

    Xiang Li was giggling, "That is my big brother, alright."

    When all the cultivators from the seven major celestial ns heard Ji Yuan, they were all startled and there were loud mutterings.

    "Any proof?"

    "Can we believe him?"

    "What if he is a fake?"

    "What if he has an ulterior motive in doing so?"

    "What are his ulterior motives?"

    "Maybe he wants our women¡­"

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "Maybe none of you believe that I am your savior from the Celestial Realm but that is not the most important to me."

    Then he pointed at Xiang Wen and the elders of the True Origin Celestial Sect, "Well, my name isn''t Ji Yuan. But the whole lot of you should very well kowtow in front of me at the very least!"

    Xiang Wen frowned unhappily, "You''re asking us to kowtow in front of you? Even if you are a golden celestial, isn''t it a little too arrogant for you to ask us to do so? And why only us?"

    Ji Yuan answered coolly, "I can give you two very good reasons. Firstly, I just save your asses."

    "Secondly, I am your ancestor patriarch that found the True Origin Celestial Sect. So, shouldn''t my lineage line of prot¨¦g¨¦s be kowtowing in front of me?"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the True Origin Celestial Sect were stunned with disbelief.

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself, "Only Big Brother can say something like this."

    Even Fairy Xiang Li was shaking her head, "He is supposed to be cultivating his heart¡­"

    Qiu Xiuyu was taken in by Ji Yuan''s lie as she stared nkly at him; he is my ancestor patriarch?

    Xiang Wen muttered, "My ancestor patriarch name isn''t called Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I''ve changed my name to Ji Yuan after I''ve arrived in the Celestial Realm." Ji Yuan interrupted as he immediately disyed the swordy of the True Origin Celestial Sect in front of everyone.

    Xiang Wen and all the other prot¨¦g¨¦s of the True Origin Celestial Sect were startled immediately. They had never expected to see someone disying the swordy of the True Origin Celestial Sect in such a swift and astonishing manner!

    Even the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the other celestial ns were impressed for they had never thought that the True Origin Celestial Sect was so impressive!

    Just as Xiang Wen and many of the elders were about to give praises to Ji Yuan for showing them how astonishing swordy their celestial n was, Ji Yuan hummed loudly. "This is rubbish swordy."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Once again, Ji Yuan disyed the swordy of the True Origin Celestial Sect again. This time, there were many subtle differences but these subtle differences awed everyone, transforming many of the ordinary strokes into even more impressive strokes!

    Xiang Wen stammered, "This¡­this is¡­"

    Ji Yuan said, "Although I had ascended to the Celestial Realm a long, long time ago but I am sad that the swordy that I have handed down seems to have degenerated into a crappy swordy."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan purposely returned a long sigh before he tossed his two divine swords into the hands of the two nearby celestial orthodox leaders, "Since my own prot¨¦g¨¦s refuse to acknowledge me and they have also disappointed me, you may have my two divine swords."<sub> </sub>

    The other two celestial orthodox leaders were only too delighted as they quickly kowtowed onto their knees, "Oh great celestial! Please acknowledge our eternal thanks for our sects to you¡­"

    This shocked and startled Xiang Wen as well as many others as they watched two divine swords given free just like this¡­

    In the mortal realm, a divine sword is like a most priceless profound treasure that can be given to a celestial n!

    Not only do these two leaders from the celestial orthodox ns want to kowtow to Ji Yuan, they even want to kiss his foot as well!

    And these two leaders were shouting angrily to their prot¨¦g¨¦s, "Where are your manners?! Quickly kowtow to Great Celestial Ji Yuan and greet him with your proper manners!"

    Immediately all the prot¨¦g¨¦s from these two celestial ns were all on their knees as they quickly greeted loudly, "All hail Great Celestial Ji Yuan!"

    This was not lost on Xiang Wen as he too, quickly kowtowed on the ground. "Great Ancestor Patriarch Ji Yuan, please forgive your sect for not recognizing you earlier!"

    Then he was shouting to his elders and the other lower ranking prot¨¦g¨¦s, "Where are your manners? Come greet your ancestor patriarch!"

    All the elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s were all on their knees quickly as they shouted, "All hail Great Ancestor Patriarch Ji Yuan!"

    And of course, they were all actually hoping that Ji Yuan would bestow something in return to them. After all, in their eyes, interestse above all.

    And this is something that Ji Yuan understands very well and he is very experienced when ites to the politics of the Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he seemed to reciprocate their thoughts, "Haha, since this is my first time returning to the mortal realm, I should bestow something for those that can recognize me¡­"

    As he was saying, he had already taken out a random divine sword to give it to Xiang Wen before tossing dozens of random profound pills to the kneeling cultivators. "Since I can''t decide who to give these profound pills that I''ve got from the Celestial Realm to, whoever can catch one, it shall belong to them then."

    When the cultivators heard that these profound pills were from the Celestial Realm, there was a mad rush by everyone for the profound pills.

    Many of the high ranking celestial orthodox cultivators could only swallow their bitter saliva as they watched their juniors making a mad rush for the dozens of profound pills because their status were too high to make a mad rush for these profound pills.

    The other four celestial orthodox leaders naturally wanted a share of the pie and they were all soon kowtowing to Ji Yuan and praising his name.

    "Please ept our deepest gratitude foring to our aid!"

    "So you are patriarch ancestor Ji Yuan, we have long heard of your renown¡­"

    "Great Celestial, please ept the head bows of all my prot¨¦g¨¦s in my celestial n!"

    "We are actually very impressed by you earlier¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I do have several more divine swords that I can bestow¡­"

    Immediately, everyone was shouting loudly.

    "All hail Great Celestial Ji Yuan!"

    "All hail Great Celestial Ji Yuan!"

    "All hail Great Celestial Ji Yuan!"

    Fairy Anyang wasining to Xiang Li, "How can he tell such a lie?"

    Xiang Liughed, "That is because Big Brother is a gentleman. He never lies!"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "He just lies and you just say he never lies¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled as she exined, "Big Brother always say he is a rascal. He is never a self-righteous cultivator. In this aspect, he is truly a gentleman who sticks to his principles."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    She began to mutter almost incoherently, "I got a feeling that he has corrupted you instead¡­"

    Just as Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, the prot¨¦g¨¦ leader of the Cherry Cosmos Celestial n humbly said to him. "Great Celestial Ji Yuan, my daughter is renowned as the most beautiful maiden in the entire fraternity. I will like to offer her in marriage to you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said weakly, "I am not single already."

    The prot¨¦g¨¦ leader smiled, "She can be your concubine to serve you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 412 How Can They Be So Shameless?!

    When Ji Yuan heard that he was being offered the hand of the most beautiful maiden in the celestial fraternity in marriage by the prot¨¦g¨¦ leader of the Cherry Cosmos Celestial n, he began to roll his eyes and quickly rejected the offer in a kind manner.

    "It is not that I did not want to marry your daughter but I am a cultivator of the heart and moreover I won''t be staying for long in the mortal realm. But I appreciate your kind offer."

    He took out another divine sword and handed it to the prot¨¦g¨¦ leader of the Cherry Cosmos Celestial n, "This is for your daughter. If we are fated to meet in the Celestial Realm in the future then this divine sword will be our betrothal token and I will surely take her hand in marriage."

    He had rejected the offer without causing the other party''s reputation to be harmed and in such an understanding manner without making anyone feeling awkward.

    Just as he was praising himself in secret for his sudden brilliant for rejecting this sudden marriage, he was swarmed by dozens of loud cries.

    "Great Celestial Ji Yuan, please take my daughter hand as well!"

    "And mine too¡­"

    "You will surely find my daughter very appealing to your taste¡­"

    "You will find my daughter very desirable to your eyes¡­"

    "Your heart will surely stir with passions by my daughter¡­"

    "Please take my daughter¡­"

    "Great Celestial Ji Yuan¡­take my daughter instead¡­"

    "I have a grand-daughter¡­"

    "You can have two of my daughters¡­"

    "You can have all my daughters¡­"

    "You can have all my daughters, nieces and grand-daughters¡­"

    When these cultivators saw that there was a divine sword to be given if they offer their daughters to Ji Yuan, they quickly hatched a n; If reject, they may get a divine sword. If Ji Yuan epts their offer then won''t the gift be more than a divine sword then?

    Ji Yuan began to curse silently; these people are even more shameless than him¡­

    "No, I do not need to examine your daughter''s body. I''m a cultivator of the heart¡­"

    Finally he had managed to reject all their kind offers and he ended up poorer as well.

    He had not forgotten about his trial mission, of course.

    And very finally, he managed to talk to Xiang Wen in peace after sending away the other six celestial orthodox ns away with some gifts.

    "I will like to meditate in the sect''s spiritual veins to recuperate back my profound strength. Will that do?"

    Xiang Wen was naturally only too d to be able to render help to Ji Yuan so he answered quickly, "Of course! As long as Great Ancestor Patriarch wishes, you can use it anytime you want to!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Is that so? Haha. That is good¡­"

    All of a sudden he caught Qiu Xiuyu''s mncholy eyes looking at him; it is because she knew that that the day that Ji Yuan goes to the spiritual veins is also the day that he will leave her forever.

    Xiang Wen bowed with his hands, "I do have a request for Great Ancestor Patriarch. I wonder if Great Ancestor Patriarch will be able to ede to my request?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "As long as it is a reasonable request, I will surely oblige you."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Wenughed slyly, "Actually I have a grand-daughter. She is really beautiful and have a pleasant attitude. I am sure that Great Ancestor Patriarch will surely find her pleasing¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan randomly took out another divine sword, "I am a cultivator of the heart. Thank you for your kind offer instead. When your grand-daughter is able to ascend to the Celestial Realm in the future, I will surely take her hand in marriage."

    Xiang Wen was smiling and looking very pleased as he held onto the divine sword that Ji Yuan had just given him.

    Ji Yuan said, "I am tired and I will like to retire with Elder Xiuyu. In 3 days'' time, I will visit the sect''s spiritual veins."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled but secretly pleased when she heard that Ji Yuan would be going to the spiritual veins in 3 days'' time instead of immediately.

    She still got 3 days to be with him¡­

    "Great Ancestor Patriarch, please hold!" Elder Dong had suddenly rushed forward to pay his respect.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "What is it?"

    Elder Dong humbly smiled weakly, "I hope that Great Ancestor Patriarch will not bear any grudges to me. I know that I''ve been too disrespectful to you in the past. I really have no eye balls and can''t recognize Great Ancestor Patriarch."

    Ji Yuanughed loudly, "Not at all. I''ve always been a forgiving man."

    p "Except to those that try to green Big Brother." Xiang Li chuckled loudly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she added for him.</anda>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Fairy Anyang could not resist a chuckle as well.

    Elder Dong smiled and continued, "I''ve a grand-daughter that I will like to betroth to Ancestor Patriarch¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Several elders immediately stepped forward to ask for forgiveness all of a sudden, "Great Ancestor Patriarch, actually I''ve looked down on you previously. So, I will like to offer my daughter/ grand-daughter/ niece to you¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Many of the elders that did not have any daughters, grand-daughters, nieces, great grand-daughters were now cursing those that have one for being too shameless, utterly too shameless in their hearts.

    Even Ji Yuan was cursing them loudly in his heart; It is no wonder why Senior Mo Bei has failed this trial 3 times. These mortal cultivators are trying to bankrupt me and corrupting a faithful man like me...they are even more shameless than me...

 Chapter 413 Ji Yuan +2 Points Over Yun Chi

    Yun Chi was smiling when she had regrouped with Ji Yuan and Qiu Xiuyu back in their abode.

    "So the Great Hero Ji Yuan is indeed extremely generous."

    She had seen what had happened earlier.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The only reason why Ji Yuan was so generous was because he wanted to maintain his face as well as the face of the great saints in front of everyone. It would be horrible if the mortal cultivators learnt that he was as poor as hell.

    He was not exactly poor a while ago because he had plenty of loot from his previous fight with the celestial cultivators.

    But now, he could be considered as official poor again.

    And he was back to square one again.

    He rolled his eyes at the number of divine swords that he could have given to his Emperor Hall Sect and he could be a very rich cultivator if he could just sell 1 or 2 divine sword. He could even fund his Emperor Hall Sect for several years and even expand his own sect!

    Ji Yuan replied with a loud chuckle, "I am actually a wealthy cultivator in the Celestial Realm. Haha. And I''m also a generous cultivator."

    In front of Yun Chi, he had to try his best to be as shameless as possible to elevate his own status.

    Yun Chiughed softly, "Do you know that you are causing a mess for this mortal realm?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am doing a good thing for them. Why did you say that I am causing a mess for them?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "That is because the number of divine swords and other profound treasures that you have thrown to them today will cause plenty of bloodshed in the hundreds of years'' time as their future generations fight over them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I didn''t think so far¡­"

    He purposely said, "Well in that case, they didn''t cultivate their hearts enough. I am actually testing their worthiness to be in the Celestial Realm in the future."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed silently when he saw Yun Chi''s expression. Finally his shamelessness had rendered Yun Chi speechless.

    Ji Yuan +1

    Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "My lord, may I ask you something?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Heughed coolly, "Of course, my beloved! You may ask me anything you want."

    Just don''t ask me about my wealth¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded before she inhaled deeply, "Why three days? Is it because of me?"

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly before he nodded.

    "Why?" Qiu Xiuyu asked.

    Yun Chi smiled, "That is because he wants to apany you for three more days."<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li giggled as she added in Ji Yuan''s soul sea to Fairy Anyang and Ji Yuan, "That is because Big Brother wants to bang her for three more days."

    When Ji Yuan heard Xiang Li, he almost choked all of a sudden and he could only mutter weakly, "Rubbish!"

    But his attention quickly returned to Qiu Xiuyu as he said gently to her, "Do you still remember that profound pill that I''ve given to you?"

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded slowly, "I do."

    Ji Yuan said, "That is actually the Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill and is a sixth rank alchemy pill."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled immediately, "Isn''t that a miracle pill?"

    Even Yun Chi was surprised, "You got one?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; actually he got five. It was his reward forpleting the Trial of Transmigration after he had led his 300 Spartans to the Celestial Realm to be celestial cultivators.

    "Haha. I just got lucky I guess."

    Yun Chi frowned, "You are very lucky."

    Ji Yuan turned to say to Qiu Xiuyu, "This Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill is highly coveted in the Celestial Realm because the cultivators can rank up in their cultivation realm without fearing for their lives.

    When Qiu Xiuyu heard Ji Yuan, she was gasping all of a sudden as she realized something¡­

    Ji Yuan exined inly, "With this Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill, you can ascend to the Celestial Realm immediately."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped after Ji Yuan had confirmed her suspicion.

    Yun Chi smiled, "Indeed. You are really lucky to have such a good lord."

    Qiu Xiuyu began to flush shyly, "Sister Yun Chi, you''re teasing your Sister Xiuyu."

    Ji Yuan said, "Therefore for the next three days, I am going to prepare for your ascension."

    Yun Chi smiled, "With this Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill, you can be rest assured that she will surely ascend to the Celestial Realm. I still think that you''ve an ulterior motive for asking for 3 days."

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he said solemnly, "No. I can''t afford to have any incident to happen to Xiuyu and I can''t afford to have any ident to happen to her unborn child. Her child is my child as well. I must aid her ascension personally. This is my responsibility as father."

    Yun Chi was startled as she looked nkly. Unconsciously, she began to pat her belly¡­

    Ji Yuan looked at Yun Chi and he was secretly smiling to himself.

    Ji Yuan +2

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped as she covered her mouth with her hands; her eyes were bleary and she was greatly touched by what Ji Yuan had just said.

    Both Qiu Xiuyu and Yun Chi were suddenly looking at Ji Yuan nkly.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was so man in front of them.

    Even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were impressed by what Ji Yuan had just said and they were also staring nkly at him¡­

 Chapter 414 Ji Yuan Loses All His Points And More

    Ji Yuan had suddenly started to remove his outer garment, startling Qiu Xiuyu and Yun Chi at the same time.

    "What are you doing?" Yun Chi halted her smiles as she disyed her displeasure. "This is the daylight and you are showing a bad example to our unborn daughter."

    Even Qiu Xiuyu was panicky saying, "My lord, this isn''t too appropriate, right¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What are all of you thinking about? I''m just trying to remove my golden robe to give it to my beloved Xiuyu."

    He had been wearing his golden robe inside the sect''s official robe or else he would look too striking.

    Yun Chi gasped, "Serious? Do you know how invaluable that robe is?"

    Qiu Xiuyu asked curiously, "That golden robe is really invaluable?"

    Yun Chi nodded with a weak smile, "Even if you have tens of millions of high grade spirit stones, you can''t buy it. Even if you are willing to use 100 heaven-step divine swords to trade for it, you cannot get one."

    Qiu Xiuyu immediately gasped with shock, "And my lord is giving this robe to me?"

    Ji Yuan had already taken off his golden robe as he put it around Qiu Xiuyu, "That is right. Your life and our unborn child''s life are more important to me than anything else."

    Qiu Xiuyu was bleary eyes and she really did not know what to say¡­

    Ji Yuan +3

    Even Yun Chi was muttering softly, "He is too rich¡­"

    Ji Yuan +4

    Ji Yuan looked quite proud of himself as heughed.

    Yun Chi smiled, "That is probably thest of his assets by now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi +1, Ji Yuan -1

    Ji Yuan managed a weak smile as he said to Yun Chi, "I will need your help to help us to keep intruders out."

    Yun Chi nodded, "You want to do it now?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Yea. The sooner the better."

    "Do you really need 3 days then?" Yun Chi asked with some suspicion.

    Ji Yuan answered, "Haha. This is my first time helping someone to ovee their life and death tribtion. I don''t know how long it will take so I randomly say 3 days."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Got it."

    "Good luck sister." She smiled to Qiu Xiuyu before slipping away.

    Qiu Xiuyu was trembling lightly as she held onto the Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill, "I am really going to transverse to the Celestial Realm soon? Just like my Patriarch Li Ye¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled to her, "Take it away. It is going to be a breeze with me."

    Then he whispered romantically, "My beloved Xiuyu, since you''re going to the Celestial Realm, shall we have a onest time¡­"

    "So that is really what you are thinking?" A sweet voice suddenly chuckled from behind.

    Ji Yuan turned ashen immediately as he recognized the voice to be Yun Chi.

    Yun Chi +2, Ji Yuan -2

    Ji Yuan thought; Oh crap, I left with 2 points now.

    He was actually thinking;

    Day 1 with Qiu Xiuyu.

    Day 2 with Yun Chi.

    Day 3 for the finalpletion of the trial.

    Qiu Xiuyu was flushing shyly and she was too awkward to say anything.

    Yun Chi chuckled, "I shall be on my sentry duty. Have fun."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Qiu Xiuyu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan took a sly look to check if Yun Chi was really gone before he smiled to Qiu Xiuyu, "Shall we?"

    ? Qiu Xiuyu answered by nodding shyly.

    When Ji Yuan saw her shy nod, he began tough softly as he quickly got hold of her to kiss her passionately.

    What followed next was hours of passionate lovemaking as though they were doing it for the onest time.

    It was really the onest time though.

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Let me help you to put on this golden robe."

    "You mean you want to help me to undress first?" Qiu Xiuyu teased him.

    Ji Yuanughed as he worked his fingers around Qiu Xiuyu, "Is there any differences?"

    What quickly followed were several indescribable scenes.

    -

    -

    -

    After a fun session with his beloved Qiu Xiuyu, Ji Yuan naturally had to return to reality.

    He quickly drew arge circle around Qiu Xiuyu and scattered high grade spirit stones around the circle that he had drawn.

    As he scattered the high grade spirit stones, he muttered silently to himself; Xiuyu, may you have the blessing to ascend to a spiritual rich ce in the Celestial Realm. We may not meet in the Deste Celestial Realm and I won''t be able to see our unborn child¡­<sub> </sub>

    Qiu Xiuyu thought that she saw Ji Yuan was muttering to himself so she asked curiously, "My lord, what are you thinking about?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. I was just thinking of warning you to hide your golden robe when you are in the Celestial Realm. Never reveal it to anyone. There are actually many bad celestials in the Celestial Realm."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled, "There are many bad celestials?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Actually the Celestial Realm is almost like your mortal realm. There are good and there are bad cultivators. The Celestial Realm is actually not the ultimate realm. Above the Celestial Realm is the Gods'' Realm or the Immortal Realm."

    Qiu Xiuyu had never heard of the Immortal Realm before and she was startled, "The Gods'' Realm? The Immortal Realm?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "As celestials, we are all striving ascend immortals as true immortals. We the celestials are not immortals. Only the true immortals can really be considered as true gods for they are immortal and ageless."

    Qiu Xiuyu was truly startled, "I have thought that after ascending to the Celestial Realm, I don''t have to cultivate anymore."

    Ji Yuanughed, "In the Celestial Realm, we have many celestial cultivators that are almost like the realm levels of the cultivators here. It is just that that they are born celestials. I am a born celestial so I have never been in the mortal realm before."

    Qiu Xiuyu blinked her eyes, "I have thought that my lord has also ascended to the Celestial Realm at one point or another."

    Ji Yuan quickly exined to her about the cultivation realms in the Celestial Realm before telling her that she was now at the fourth cultivation realm. The Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill that she got would be able to skip several mortal cultivation realms for her and straight away elevated her from a fourth realm cultivator to a fifth realm cultivator.

    Qiu Xiuyu sighed woefully, "Then my lord is a seventh realm cultivator and also a peaked seventh realm cultivator. Maybe when we see each other again, you may have already ascended to the Immortal Realm."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually not so soon."

    By now, Qiu Xiuyu''s grey eyes had suddenly turned golden.

    This was a sign of ascension.

    When Qiu Xiuyu had consumed the Rainbow Celestial Profound Pill, her eyes had suddenly turned grey as she entered thete stage of the Crisis Divinity.

    Before the dawn, there will be the darkness.

    The colors of the eyes of the cultivator reflect this change.

    Now that her grey eyes had turned golden, she had now entered the Ascend Divinity rapidly.

    Normally the Ascend Divinity like the Crisis Divinity also had an initial stage, middle stage and ate stage.

    But Qiu Xiuyu could feel that she was passing through the stages of the Ascend Divinity rapidly.

    She was only too astonished; if she cultivates alone then this may take her several decades or centuries and there is always a high chance of failure along the way.

    That was why she had been cultivating her heart until recently when she had met Ji Yuan¡­

    The bright noon sky had suddenly turned dark and the winds were suddenly blowing strongly.

    Ji Yuan sighed as he knew that the Divine Cmity is about toe.

    So he unsheathed his two saintly divine swords and ced them in front of him and Qiu Xiuyu.

    Although he could not lift his two saintly divine swords but he was going to use them to protect Qiu Xiuyu who had also unsheathed the divine sword that Ji Yuan had given to her.

    Ji Yuan had earlier given to her two heaven-step divine swords as he said to her, "One for you and for our child in the future. Actually the divine sword that I''ve given to you is a random divine sword that I had picked in the past and I didn''t have the time to check its grade before giving it to you."

    Ji Yuan said loudly, "Xiang Li! Anyang! I need your help!"

    And two astonishing beautiful spirit maidens had suddenly appeared and hover above the two saintly swords.

    Qiu Xiuyu was very astonished, "Who are they and what are they?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "I am Xiang Li! I serve my Big Brother."

    Fairy Anyang was more cool, "I am Fairy Anyang."

    Ji Yuanughed, "They are my twopanion spirit entities and they are also the spiritual masters of my two divine swords."

    Qiu Xiuyu was trembling as she stared at the two superior divine swords, "I have never seen such divine power in a sword before. Moreover I''ve never heard of a sword spirit in a divine sword before. My lord, you must be someone important in the Celestial Realm."

    "Haha. My two divine swords aremon ce in the Celestial Realm." Ji Yuanughed aloud.

    Ji Yuan +3 again.

    Fairy Anyang frowned, "We aremon ce?"

    Xiang Li protested, "Big Brother''s divine swords are saint swords, notmon ce at all!"

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped aloud, "Saint swords?! Aren''t saint swords legendary swords that are formed only at the beginning of time? It is said that these superior swords are impossible to obtain."

    Ji Yuan -1 from Fairy Anyang.

    Ji Yuan -2 from Xiang Li.

    Ji Yuan -3 from Qiu Xiuyu.

    All his precious good man points are suddenly wiped out instantly.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am only trying to be humble."

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded before she turned to smile to Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "I''m pleased to know the two of you. I am Ji Yuan''s new consort."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I am pleased to know you as well. I am aware of that. I''m Big Brother''s consort as well and so is Fairy Anyang. Therefore we are sisters."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li! This is our secret, our secret! You''re not supposed to go around telling everyone about it¡­

    Ji Yuan total point -1.

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped with shock as she looked confused, "You are both Ji Yuan''s consorts as well¡­"

    Ji Yuan total point -2

    Ji Yuan covered his face with his right hand, "This is not what you think. I will exin to you in the future. Time is now running short. The Divine Cmity is about to start."

 Chapter 415 The Divine Calamity

    The strong winds were blowing furiously against Ji Yuan and Qiu Xiuyu as they braced for the iing Divine Cmity that was forming in the dark heavens above in the form of a gigantic dark cloud face above them.

    Long streaks of lightning were shing and striking on the ground below, causing Qiu Xiuyu to be very startled and very much afraid.

    Ji Yuan said to her, "Do not be afraid. I am here. There will be 99 lightning that will attempt to strike you."

    Qiu Xiuyu gasped, "99 lightning?! I can''t survive it."

    Ji Yuan answered quietly, "I will be with you. Usually the first few lightning won''t hit you because these lightning represent the first few years of your life and usually a cultivator has a pure soul at the beginning. It is onlyter in life that a person''s soul will be corrupted and hence, the lightning will be aimed at you. You need to prepare for it and use your divine sword as your protection."

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded fearfully, "My lord must have a really pure soul in order to be a great saint."

    "Of course! Haha." Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    He remembered that he had to take 13 lightning strike for his first golden body transformation, which was not too bad already.

    Usually if the lightning strike was more than 9 times, most cultivators would not be able to survive the Divine Cmity. However, he was a tougher nut than most.

    That is why the storytellers always love to tell the cultivators in the Celestial Realm that the younger they are, the higher their potential is; actually it is only because the younger that they are, the less corrupt their souls are.

    The number of lightning strikes continued to strike with increasing frequency.

    Ji Yuan was anxious for Qiu Xiuyu.

    It was not just his consort Qiu Xiuyu alone but his unborn child as well.

    Therefore he was doubly alert.

    There was also something that he was anxious about and that was that if a cultivator chooses to help another person to ovee their life and death tribtion, the strength of the Divine Cmity will also be enhanced to the strongest cultivator and doubled again for each additional cultivator.

    Therefore Qiu Xiuyu will never be able to take even a single lightning and that is because Ji Yuan is too high level.

    But Ji Yuan is willing to take the double strength Divinity Cmity for her.

    It will be even more powerful than his own lightning cmity!

    All of a sudden the entire heavens were rumbling fiercely and even the mountains were shaking tremendously!

    This caused Ji Yuan to have a sudden ominous feeling.

    He had never heard of the mountains moving for a breakthrough to the golden celestial realm level even when there were many stories of multiple saints aiding a cultivator to breakthrough.

    He muttered weakly, "What is going on here?"

    Fairy Anyang offered him a suggestion in his soul sea, "Maybe you aren''t just a peaked great saint?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not?"

    Xiang Li reminded him with a soft giggle, "May I remind you that you are an 8th rank middle realm cultivator if you were to use your Cherubim immortal core."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "But I can''t now and moreover my profound strength is restricted to the fourth realm cultivation level now. Is the heavens blind?"

    "Wait a minute." He frowned all of a sudden. "And the strength of this lightning obviously is of the saint power level. Is the heavens cheating or what? Or the heavens have a grudge against me or something?"

    Fairy Anyang smiled weakly, "You can try arguing with the heavens all day and you won''t get any response. My lord, you have better focused on defending your beloved consort Xiuyu against the Divine Cmity instead."

    Ji Yuan sighed bitterly to them, "I can only show off my 8th realm cultivation level for just a while and now I am even demoted to a 4th realm cultivator."

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "Your Xiuyu will be so shocked to learn that you are actually an 8th realm cultivator."

    Ji Yuan replied, "I can''t tell her this or she will think that I am a liar once she is in the Celestial Realm. The 8th realm cultivation level is only for those that can ascend to the Immortal Realm. Moreover, I am only an 8th realm cultivator only when I can disy my immortal cherubim spirit animus. I''m not a real 8th realm cultivator."

    "But you are." Xiang Li giggled.

    All of a sudden a bolt of lightning thundered and shed toward them.

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his two sword spirits on his hands as he shouted, "Xiang Li and Anyang!"

    Two bright sword spirits immediately red brilliant around Ji Yuan.

    At the same time, Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang instinctively know where to lift their divine swords and there was a thunderous shockwave when the lightning collided with the divine swords.

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang had suddenly turned to physical form when they were lifting their divine swords all of a sudden.

    This shocked Qiu Xiuyu when she saw that Ji Yuan''s spirit entities were able to have a physical form and she was also shocked when she saw that Ji Yuan had two sword spirits.

    Ji Yuanughed as he praised Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "Good work! Hahaha. Even though I can''t use my divine swords but the two of you are not restricted and can tap into my soul sea directly. With my sword spirits to guide you, I don''t even to take any risk at all."

    Fairy Anyang frowned, "This sounds like an exploit to me."

    "Who cares if it works." Ji Yuanughed aloud.

    "But Big Brother, the lightning may be close but it certainly cannot hit you or Maiden Xiuyu. You need to be more urate than this." Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    -1 point with everyone.

    Slowly he frowned, "Actually I am only giving a trial run for this first. I am actually very urate especially when I am aiming the holes. You can''t do things at thest minute, do you know."

    Somehow this caused Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang and even Qiu Xiuyu to giggle softly in an otherwise solemn mood.<sub> </sub>

    Dozens of lightning soon shed down but none of them were close enough to strike Qiu Xiuyu.

    This caused Ji Yuan to frown silently; this is impossible. She is so pure?

    Eventually all 99 lightning had struck all around them but none of the lightning was actually aimed directly at Qiu Xiuyu even though there were some close shaves.

    However there were 13 lightning that were aimed at Ji Yuan directly instead.

    But luckily there were Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang who were there to protect him.

    This caused Ji Yuan to curse loudly, "I am not taking the ascension. Why are you aiming me instead?!"

    Even Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang and Qiu Xiuyu were quite astonished that the lightning seemed to be aiming at Ji Yuan instead.

    When the 99 lightning had finally passed, Ji Yuan face-palmed himself; this is so embarrassing. Xiuyu is actually so pure and she is purer than me. I can''t believe it¡­I am supposed to be the pure one. Didn''t I cleanse my soulpletely in the Dream Trial?

    There was a sudden bright light as a golden animus began to surround Qiu Xiuyu all of a sudden and at the same time Qiu Xiuyu was transforming into a spirit animus as she was lifted up slowly to the heavens.

    When a cultivator managed to ascend, only their profound items will be able to transform with them as these profound items contain profound energies and they will be able to transcend together.

    Qiu Xiuyu cried out, "My lord. I am a golden celestial now. Will I see you soon?"

    Ji Yuan gasped as he tried to catch hold of her but he was only able to touch her finger with his finger tip, "We will surely see each other again very soon. Remember that I will be in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Remember to look for me at the Emperor Hall Sect! It is at the Five Heavens Peaks in the Deste Celestial Fraternity!"

    That was a lie.

    Ji Yuan did not want to tell her that she would be randomly sent to a different celestial fraternity for the Celestial Realm is a vast realm, much bigger than the mortal realm.

    There are many mortal realms but there is only one Celestial Realm.

    <o>,m Qiu Xiuyu muttered tearfully, "The Deste Celestial Realm¡­the Emperor Hall Sect¡­the Five heavens Peaks¡­I will remember this¡­"</o>

    Ji Yuan was actually heartbreak to see her fly off but he tried to maintain his manlyposure, "There is no hurry to look for me. Remember to look for a spiritual rich mountain to join as your new celestial sect. It is more important to cultivate first¡­"

    Then he quickly said what he had been trying to suppress in his heart, "Xiuyu, I love you¡­"

    Even though Qiu Xiuyu was high up now but in spirit form her perceptions were actually enhanced many times, "Ji Yuan, I love you too. Till the oceans dry up and the stones age to dust, I will love you forever¡­I want to be with you till the end of time¡­"

    Her voice was extremely mncholy and this caused Ji Yuan''s heart to bleed internally when he had heard herst parting mncholy words.

    There was another sh of light as the sh of light sped up to the canopies of a small window in the dark heavens and disappeared.

    All of a sudden the bright light was everywhere, vanishing the darkness and tranquility was restored.

    There was even a rainbow in the clouds above.

    Ji Yuan could not resist shedding a drop of tear and his eyes were bleary when he saw Qiu Xiuyu disappeared just like this.

    He tried to remind himself; She is only ascending to the Celestial Realm and maybe one day, you may see her and your child again. So Ji Yuan, why are you so sad?

    But silently he is afraid because the Celestial Realm is a treacherous realm with many dark politics and hypocrites. And moreover she is already very beautiful now and when she has transformed into a golden celestial, she will be even more beautiful.

    And he may be green as well.

    "She is even more pure than I''ve thought. You are really lucky to have met a maiden like her." Yun Chi had suddenly appeared out of the blue.

    "Are you crying?" Yun Chi teased him with a wry smile.

    "Of course not! I have a heart of stone!" Ji Yuan answered with a hoarse voice.

    Yun Chi rolled her eyes before she turned to smile at Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, "I believe that this is the first time that we have met. I am Yun Chi."

    Secretly, she was appraising Xiang Li closely; so she is the Goddess Tear. And who is this other spirit entity? Ji Yuan actually has two spirit entities? No, he has five spirit entities now if I am to include his two sword spirits and immortal animus spirit. Is this really possible? Or is this the power of the Goddess Tear?

    She had actually witnessed the entire ascension from afar.

    Xiang Li giggled, "I am Xiang Li!"

    "I am Fairy Anyang."

    Yun Chi chuckled, "You are both so beautiful. More beautiful than me. Ji Yuan is so lucky to have the both of you."

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were both suddenly flushing shyly.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "We can both leave this ce now."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "s, only for you but not for me. Do you think that the sacred ground of a celestial n where the spiritual veins are located, is a ce that any stranger can enter as they please? They only know you but not me."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Don''t worry. I will surely help you toplete this trial. Don''t forget I am now their Ancestor Patriarch now. How dare they refuse to heed their Ancestor Patriarch. Haha."

    "Maybe I can im to be their Ancestress Patriarch?" Yun Chi had suddenly winked at him. "I can tell them that I am your consort. What do you think, heh."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was suddenly smiling, "I think that is a good idea¡­"

    Yun Chi was smiling too because she had managed to make Ji Yuan smile; she knew that he was clearly heartbroken and was looking sad.

 Chapter 416 Completion Of The Trial

    "We are not going to theplete the trial straightaway?" Yun Chi asked curiously. "Didn''t you say that we can both leave this ce now?"

    "Yun Chi, we still got a day more to go." Ji Yuan said with a  pleading look. "We should have some private time together first."

    Yun Chi rolled her eyes before she smiled, "No, I want toplete the trial as soon as possible."

    Ji Yuan reminded her, "I have got a wounded heart."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She muttered weakly, "You are too shameless. You can even use your misfortune as an excuse."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly before he directed a low voice to below Yun Chi, "My daughter, do you want your papa''spany for a day more?"

    A soft cute voice answered, "I want my papa''spany every day, not just one day."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Look! Even our daughter is saying the same thing."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    The soft cute voice whimpered, "I want papa and mama to be together forever¡­"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is my good daughter."

    He winked at Yun Chi as he caught hold of her waist, not forgetting to slide his fingers further down below to her butt and used his lecherous fingers to stroke below.

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "Watch your hands."

    Ji Yuan pretended to ask curiously, "Ask my hands not to do what?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    In front of her unborn daughter, she can''t say anything lewd.

    So she caught of Ji Yuan''s hand that was already pushing the way into her robe and short skirt below, "Do you mind hands off from me?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a grin, "Actually I do mind."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang was sighing to Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "As soon as he thinks he will be able toplete this trial, our lord haspletely forgotten to cultivate his heart."

    Xiang Li giggled back, "Big Brother never disappoints."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "Alright I won''t do it again." Ji Yuan sighed softly.

    As soon as he had said that, Yun Chi could feel Ji Yuan poking her below.

    Yun Chi said exasperatingly, "You are such a liar. What did you just say?"

    Ji Yuan said innocently as he raised both his hands, "Look, my hands are here. I really didn''t do it. Oh, you mean my third hand?"

    This caused Yun Chi to look a little flushed because she had suddenly realized that the third hand that Ji Yuan was referring to, was actually his little brother¡­

    "Stay away from me." She muttered weakly.

    Just as she had just turned to walk away, Ji Yuan had suddenly caught hold of her slender waist, "Actually, if we don''t say any lewd words or sound, our precious daughter won''t know what we will be doing¡­"

    "What is papa trying to do?" A soft and cute voice said from within Yun Chi. "Why can''t I know about it?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "My precious daughter, actually both your papa and mama used to be very uncouth persons. We are just trying to learn our manners in front of you so that we can be good parents."

    "Wow, my papa is so noble. I really love you papa!" The soft and cute voice sung out with great emotions.<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She muttered weakly, "Who is the real uncouth person here¡­"

    "I am." Ji Yuan grinned as he moved his relentless hands on her.

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Xiang Li was encouraging Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, if you don''t take down Maiden Yun Chi''s defenses today then you are not a man!"

    "Of course I am a man! Watch me, Xiang Li!" Ji Yuan chuckled in his soul sea.

    Fairy Anyang sighed with great exasperation; when Xiang Li is encouraging Ji Yuan in this manner, she was unstoppable and Ji Yuan will surely be hooked to prove his manly charm.

    She could only sigh that luckily she isn''t the victim here.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly overjoyed when he had suddenly loosened Yun Chi''s profound belt and he knew that she had given him her silence consent.

    He proceeded to kiss her passionately and he was already stripping her with his deft fingers.

    Yun Chi suddenly stopped him as she smiled, "What gives you the right to do this to me? Am I your consort?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course you are and I am your lord."

    "You are my lord?" Yun Chi giggled. "I don''t ever remember going through the rites with you."

    Ji Yuanughed again, "Then you tell me what the rites are? I can swear an oath to be your lord and to take you as my consort."

    Yun Chi rolled her eyes before she answered, "We make an oath to the Great Beyond Goddess."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as well; make an oath to Xiang Li?

    Heughed weakly, "I think better not. It isn''t a good idea."

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, the true Great Beyond Goddess had heard him and she was cursing him silently; why not? You''re not making an oath in my name? How impertinent you are. I should have enhanced the Divine Cmity earlier and strike you dead.

    Ji Yuan sneezed all of a sudden, "Who is cursing me."

    Yun Chi suddenly hit him on his chest as she smiled wryly, "Who else other than me? You don''t want to take me as your consort?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I want to¡­at the same time, we can also discuss how we can handle my other consorts when we havepleted this trialter. Haha¡­"

    Yun Chi began to smile with a shy look, "Tell me about this¡­"

    She was gasping all of a sudden because Ji Yuan had suddenly caught her as they rolled together on the ground¡­

    What happened next was up to anyone guess.

    -

    -

    -

    After making love for one day and one night, Ji Yuan and Yun Chi were finally at the spiritual veins of the True Origin Celestial Sect.

    Ji Yuan had easily persuaded the sect leader and the elders to allow Yun Chi to enter inside together with him.

    He had also informed them that Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had ascended to the Celestial Realm, startling everyone.

    Xiang Wen the sect leader and many of the elders naturally had seen the auspicious signs in the heavens and know that someone had ascended to the Celestial Realm but they did not know that she was Qiu Xiuyu.

    Ji Yuan took out hisst remaining high grade spirit stones and scattered it all over the spiritual veins. His high grade spiritual stones are naturally richer in spiritual energies than the spiritual veins here.

    With that he and Yun Chi started their meditation to absorb the spiritual energies of the spiritual veins and shortly after, they had exited the trial and they were to return to their real bodies.

    There was no reward for this trial as their mission was to obtain the spiritual energies as a key to enter the inner citadels of the Pangu Citadel.

 Chapter 417 An Imposter Arrives

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, at the Eon Firmament Mountains where the Mo n is located;

    Xue Qianxue was looking serenely as she hugged a baby in her bosoms; this baby is a baby boy and is the result of her union with Ji Yuan.

    She was singing a baby luby to her baby while muttering at the same time, "We shall wait for your father to return from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth before giving you a name, what do you say about it?"

    When she had thought of Ji Yuan, she was sighing mncholy. "I wonder how he is doing in there? I hope that he will be safe. As long as he is safe, it doesn''t matter if he is struck at the lower levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "s, Feiyue, Little Princes and Qianfeng, you may have the chance to go with Ji Yuan into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but all of you won''t be able to regroup so easily and even if you do, the trials will separate you soon after. Only at the highest level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will you all be able to meet permanently¡­"

    Again she was mncholy, "Jiajia, you are still in the Dream Trial. I hope that you will be able to ovee it soon. You''ve already been inside far longer than we have been expecting. Ji Yuan can''t lose you¡­"

    "Sister Qianxue." A heavenly voice called out and Fairy Ye Chengxi had suddenly entered her bed chamber and she was apanied by Shangguan Yan who greeted her as well.

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "Sister Qianxue must be thinking of our lord Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue nodded with a lovely smile, "Indeed I am. I was just thinking that he will be so lonely inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and moreover there will be many powerful cultivators inside topete with him. I am¡­just a little anxious."

    Shangguan Yan answered with a soft sigh, "Our lord will be alright. He always has a trump card or two hidden in his sleeves."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi bit her lips, "I hope so."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "It seems that Sister Chengxi is even more anxious than me."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi sighed softly, "How can I not be anxious? My old master can be very stubborn at times. That is his weakness."

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "Actually he has many weaknesses."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi seemed to have lit up immediately as she smiled all of a sudden, "Indeed. He always likes to imagine himself as the perfect MC in the cultivation stories but he is actually imperfect."

    "Sister Chengxi, you should stop addressing our lord as our old master now. He is your lord now." Shangguan Yan reminded her.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled, "It is an old habit that is hard to get rid of."

    Shangguan Yan smiled before she added, "Once I took a quick look at those cultivation stories that our lord is reading and I could not read further into it. All the MCs are supposed to be saviors but yet they all resort to lying to obtain their objectives without any consequences to their souls. How can they even ovee their life and death tribtions when all of them act like a liar constantly?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "That is why I don''t read such cultivation stories either. It is too unrealistic."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled, "Old master¡­I mean our lord is different. He is never a liar. He is a true gentleman of the sword."

    "Agree!" Xue Qianxue and Shangguan Yan giggled softly at the same time.

    Xue Qianxue said with more giggles, "When he dropped into my bathtub at that time, he is so honest that he blurted out all his intentions to me."

    This brought moreughter to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi giggled, "He even calls himself Yuan Ji¡­"

    "And yet his body mannerism is actually the same as his real identity Ji Yuan." Shangguan Yan face-palmed herself with more chuckles.

    Xue Qianxue giggled and her cuteness level increased, "But no matter what, he will be alright. I mean his stealth ability is unsurpassed. He can even climb up to my rooftop when I was bathing without my knowing."

    Shangguan Yan nodded, "Brother Ji Yuan can conceal himself in the same room as Hai Sheng and I before killing him with his sword."

    As she called him Brother Ji Yuan, her countenance was flushing because Ji Yuan had allowed her to call him Brother Ji Yuan as it was more intimate.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "I always thought that he is boasting to us when he says that he can even kill the leader of the ck Hand Guild who is a saint while old master is only at the sixth realm golden supremacy level. It is only when Little Princess shared with me then I have realized he is not lying at all."

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly, "At first I''ve thought that he is afraid of Feiyue and I that he went for his breakthrough. But the truth is¡­"

    "The truth is, he just want to be a saint so that he is able to negotiate his position better with the two of you." Shangguan Yan smiled. "My master can turn invisible if he wants to and he often says, against the honorable, I will be honorable but against the viinous, I can be despicable as well."

    That was the truth.

    At that time Ji Yuan had no real animosity against Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue. Rather, he had thought that he had greatly offended them so he was trying to breakthrough to the saint level to better negotiate his position with them rather than confronting them.<sub> </sub>

    The truth was, he was not really afraid for himself but for his sect. So in order not to drag his Orthodox Sword Sect into the shit hole that he had dug himself, he had decided to enter seclusion so that his crisis would just turn into a personal vendetta.

    And he hoped that with time, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue would quickly forget about him or make new enemies.

    Moreover he was just looking for an excuse to leave the Five Heavens Peaks too so that he could be a parasite in Saint Xiao Muhan''s richer spiritual mountains where he could enjoy free wines.

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "Even though he can''t win us in a fair fight but if he really wants to ambush us, he may have an advantage. If he can''t win, he can surely run."

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded too as they recalled how Ji Yuan had turned himselfpletely invisible to the deste beasts before he plucked the Millions Suns Sage to get rid of the deste beasts'' threat to the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had suddenly turned solemn, "Sister Qianxue, actually we havee to inform you on something."

    "Oh?" Xue Qianxue asked curiously. "What is it?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi promptly said, "There seems to be an Ascend Celestial who has suddenly popped up around here¡­"

    "Ascend Celestials may be rare but they do pop up asional. Do I need to know about this?" Xue Qianxue interrupted with a giggle.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said with a hesitation, "There is something weird about her."

    "Oh?" Xue Qianxue said.

    "She ims she is Ji Yuan''s consort and she insists on going to the Five Heavens Peak where the Emperor Hall Sect is and keeps asking if this is the Deste Celestial Fraternity." Fairy Ye Chengxi said weakly.

    This time Xue Qianxue was startled, "But Ji Yuan has never been to the mortal realm. Is she making up stories? Or is she just Ji Yuan''s fangirl who is trying to get close to him?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi shook her head, "She is obviously an Ascend Celestial because we saw her descending from the heavens when we are taking a stroll and moreover, if she is an outsider then the Mo n will be alerted immediately. You know that you can only fly to the Eon Firmament Mountains here and she has no mount too."

    Shangguan Yan added, "We didn''t tell her yet that we are actually the Pce Mistresses of the Emperor Hall Sect. We''ve only shared that this is the Eon Firmament Mountains and is the Mo n as we do not know if she is lying to us."

    Xue Qianxue muttered, "This is indeed very strange."

    Shangguan Yan continued, "This is not the strangest thing. She has a golden robe, an obvious profound treasure that is more precious than most divine swords. And moreover she has two heaven-step divine swords with her. We didn''t know our lord has such a rich consort."

    "So we need your help to check her out." Fairy Ye Chengxi said.

    Xue Qianxue giggled, "I shall interrogate her then. No one can lie past this great saintess here. Moreover Great Patriarch the Diviner Mo Ming is here too. With a little divination, we shall know if she is telling the truth."

    "There is something that you must know too." Fairy Ye Chengxi weakly said.

    Xue Qianxue giggled again, "What is it? She is probably a liar. You are worried that I can''t expose her lies?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi turned to look hesitatingly at Shangguan Yan before she answered Xue Qianxue, "She says she is carrying Ji Yuan''s child."

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    She immediately cursed softly, "Her lies are getting more and more outrageous. If I don''t teach her a lesson then I am not Xue Qianxue the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox Sect."

    All of a sudden a burst of golden light was suddenly infusing into the room before disappearing.

    Xue Qianxue was greatly startled.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi saw her startled expression, "Sister Qianxue, what is it?"

    Xue Qianxue giggled jovially, "It seems that our Sister Jiajia has returned from the Dream Trial now and from this light, it seems that she has a great sess. Very well then, leave it to Jiajia and I to expose this liar. So what is this faker name?"

    Shangguan Yan answered, "Qiu Xiuyu."

 Chapter 418 Jiajia Returns From The Dream Trial

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had also said to Xue Qianxue, "This Maiden Qiu Xiuyu is also an astonishing beautiful maiden."

    Xue Qianxue frowned, "Definitely not as beautiful as us. If she is a really an Ascend Celestial then and she is more beautiful now. If so, then she must be a real beauty in the mortal realm."

    But she was smiling to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "Don''t forget that I am one of the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, including you Sister Chengxi."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi looked down humbly, "That is only an undeserved title. I only want to be with our lord Ji Yuan."

    That is the truth; she has long admired her old master and for the longest time. She had thought that she could never be able to be with her old master because she was aware that he had long toyed the thought of leaving the Five Heavens Peaks and the Orthodox Sword Sect and was always scolding her, "Chengxi, one day I won''t be around. If you don''t improve your sword art, how can I ever pass the leadership to you?"

    She had replied with shock, "Master, you will surely live long and moreover you are so young."

    Ji Yuan had grumbled, "Who says I will be passing away? Do you really think I want to stay in this deste ce? There are more fun ces around the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I''ve already put you in charge of the prot¨¦g¨¦s while I am away most of the time. Surely you know that I''ve high expectationsing from you."

    She had replied weakly, "I am only a fourth realm cultivator while Master, you are a sixth realm golden supremacy. I don''t know if Chengxi can meet your expectations¡­"

    Ji Yuan had immediately frowned with great displeasure, "There are many sect leaders that are fourth realm and even third realm cultivators in the Five Heavens Peaks. If you are not worthy then who is worthy?"

    The number of golden celestials in the Five Heavens Peaks is few in between indeed and hence, there are many sect leaders and elders who have never reached the golden body transformation of the fifth cultivation realm.

    "I will be leaving for several months and even years. Don''t bother to look for me or worry about me. I won''t be back so soon this time."

    She was greatly startled, "Master, you are leaving for so long?"

    Ji Yuan hadughed jovially, "I have just been conferred with the title of one of the four most beautiful bearded cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. This time I will be meeting the other three beautiful bearded cultivators. After meeting up with them, I will be going to the rest of the Deste Celestial Fraternity to show off my beautiful beard, muhahaha¡­"

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Actually master, your unsightly beard is never beautiful but ugly¡­

    "Chengxi, do you agree that my beard is indeed the most beautiful beard?" Ji Yuan stroked his beautiful long beard in front of her as heughed at the same time.

    Ye Chengxi weakly said, "Be careful someone pulls your beard during a fight."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Chengxi, do you know what you''re saying? This is considered extremely disrespectable in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity to pull someone''s beard and all cultivators regardless of alignments will be going after that dishonorable cultivator that pulls someone''s beard. So how can you say something like this? Or are you envious that your master has such a beautiful beard?"

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Then Ji Yuan patted her on her shoulder, "I won''t bear any grudge against you. At most, I will look for a man with a beautiful beard for you. But I can''t promise he will have one-tenth of my beautiful beard, muhahaha."

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued, "While I am away, don''t get too close with Guo Taiming. Even though he is my best friend but he is just a toad lusting after the swans. Moreover, he is just a trouble-maker. He keeps telling me he is going to go after you so that he will take over my Orthodox Sword Sect after I have passed the leadership to you. What an insolent friend he is!"

    She had replied, "He is always like this. You know he always unmindful of his thoughts and he has always been offending people. If not for Master, he won''t be alive to this day."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do I have such a good friend? It must be my bad karma in my past life. I keep cleaning his shit for him."

    Ye Chengxi answered, "You can choose to severe ties with him."

    Ji Yuan frowned again and rebuked her, "And loses a drinking partner? Never!"

    Ye Chengxi silently said; I can drink with you¡­

    Back to the present;

    Xue Qianxue was now saying to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "Let''s go and interrogate this Maiden Qiu first."

    "You''re not visiting Sister Jiajia first?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked with astonishment.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "I am more interested in beautiful maidens."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    When they had reached the hall that Qiu Xiuyu was being held and interrogated, they saw that Saintess Yuluo and Saintess Ling Tianshui were there and they were interrogating Qiu Xiuyu.

    The two of them had been there interrogating Qiu Xiuyu while Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were away as they informed Xue Qianxue.

    When they saw Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, they were all shaking their head lightly.

    When Qiu Xiuyu saw Xue Qianxue and the rest of the beautiful maidens after she had ascended to the Celestial Realm, she was shaking her head; the celestial maidens here are all so peerless. It is no wonder why my Patriarch Li Ye wants to have a celestial maiden as his dual cultivation partner¡­

    When Xue Qianxue saw Qiu Xiuyu, she could not help nodding. "She is indeed beautiful."

    At this point, Qiu Xiuyu did not know how beautiful her beauty had been enhanced by her golden body transformation and her features had been further refined as she exuded a heavenly look.

    Xue Qianxue also could not help looking at Qiu Xiuyu''s golden robe, "I don''t believe that the mortal realm will be able to produce such a heavenly robe."

    As she stepped forward to appraise this Maiden Qiu Xiuyu, she was also smiling with great loveliness, "Sister Yuluo, Sister Tianshui."

    Shui Tianshuiughed softly when she saw it was Xue Qianxue, "You should be recuperating after all you have just given birth."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "I''m a great saintess. I don''t need much rest."

    Qiu Xiuyu was startled; this extremely beautiful maiden here is not only a saintess but a great saintess¡­<sub> </sub>

    She stammered, "My respects to great saintess¡­"

    "No need!" Xue Qianxue had suddenly ceased her lovely smiles as she turned to look at Qiu Xiuyu coldly. "So you know Ji Yuan and you''re carrying his child?"

    Qiu Xiuyu averted her eyes as she said softy, "Indeed."

    Xue Qianxue asked, "So when did youst see him?"

    Qiu Xiuyu answered without any hesitation, "Only yesterday. Just before my ascension to the Celestial Realm."

    Xue Qianxue rolled her eyes before she said coldly, "Hmph! Do you know that Ji Yuan has been in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for the past 5 months and it is impossible for him to be with you. If you want to im to know Ji Yuan, you can try harder next time. Your golden robe and your divine swords, how did you get them?"

    Qiu Xiuyu looked up as she said firmly, "He is my lord. Why should I lie? This golden robe and my divine swords are all from Ji Yuan himself. He gives me as a final parting gift."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "Good try but do you know that he is a freaking poor cultivator? He can never be able to afford even a divine sword and moreover, you have two heaven-step divine swords. If I am not wrong then your golden robe is a profound treasure of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire. Even the insignias are the same. Are you really from the mortal realm?"

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded firmly, "Yes I am."

    Xue Qianxue sighed with some exasperation, "Never say I didn''t give you a chance. How did you know Ji Yuan?"

    Qiu Xiuyu answered, "I am his master in the mortal realm¡­"

    "That is enough already." Xue Qianxue giggled as she interrupted her. "The real Ji Yuan will never take his master as his consort. He is a man with principles."

    As she said that, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were both flushing shyly; it is the true. The reason why they are now with Ji Yuan their old master is because of a special circumstance.

    Qiu Xiuyu was also exining with great exasperation, "I am telling the truth."

    She had exined again and again but somehow these maidens did not believe that she knows Ji Yuan.

    She was beginning to doubt herself¡­

    An astonishing beautiful maiden in blue had suddenly appeared in the hall with two beautiful maidens and she was smiling beautifully, "Why are you all here instead of asking after me?"

    When all the other maidens saw her, they were all smiling warmly as they greeted. "Sister Jiajia!"

    It was indeed Jiajia and apanying her were Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    Jiajia smiled as she looked at Qiu Xiuyu, "I''ve heard that you are all interrogating an imposter who ims to know Ji Yuan?"

    Xue Qianxueughed as she returned a lovely wink, "Jiajia, it is good that you are here. You can help us to interrogate her. So how is it in the Dream Trial?"

    Jiajia smiled as she disyed her profound animus and everyone was startled to see a powerful blue profound animus in the form of a blue phoenix that was surrounding her and they could barely stand still.

    What was even startling was that Jiajia cultivation realm level seemed to have exceeded the seventh realm level when she had disyed the profound animus of her spirit blue phoenix!

    She smiled warmly, "I have not only revived Xiao Ruan and as you can see, I have also received her profound strength as well."

    Everyone was startled as they muttered excitingly, "Then our Sister Jiajia may be the first 8th realm cultivator now."

    Jiajia sighed softly, "I don''t know if it is enough. I can only exceed the 7th realm cultivation strength for only short burst of time with my spirit animus. That is how the Deste Dragon God Longdi is able to extend over his limit as well."

    Then she turned to smile at Qiu Xiuyu, "So you are that imposter?"

    Qiu Xiuyu nodded firmly, "I am not an imposter. I know Ji Yuan and he is the father of my child."

    Jiajia looked a little startled, "You are carrying his child?"

    Qiu Xiuyu said impatiently, "This is my business with him and none of yours. I am tired and sick of your interrogations. If you do not know where Ji Yuan, please let me go in peace. Until now, I''ve not asked who anyone of you is."

    Jiajia smiled and she looked amused, "You don''t know who we are? We are all Ji Yuan''s consorts here."

    Qiu Xiuyu was greatly startled as she stared nkly at all the maidens presented; all these beautiful maidens are Ji Yuan''s consorts?!

    Jiajia turned to the other maidens to ask, "So what is the conclusion?"

    Xue Qianxue answered, "She is probably lying."

    Jiajia smiled as she turned to ask Saintess Yuluo, "Sister Yuluo, what do you think?"

    Saintess Yuluo smiled, "I am not as close to Ji Yuan as the rest of you. Why do you want to ask me?"

    Jiajia answered with a wry smile, "That is because your son is also Ji Yuan''s firstborn. In terms of seniority, you are ranked above us."

    Saintess Yuluo lowered her eyes before she looked up again, "I may be wrong on this but she doesn''t seem to be lying. Since Ji Yuan is going to be out of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in a month''s time, why don''t we wait for him and ask him instead?"

    Jiajia returned a smiling nod, "I know that Saintess Yuluo is fair so that''s why I''ve asked you. I have the same thoughts as you too."

    Saintess Yuluo sighed softly, "I have lived many years of being wronged by Ji Yuan so I don''t want to wrong anyone else."

    All the other maidens nodded quietly; they know that Saintess Yuluo had a woeful past with Ji Yuan¡­

    Jiajia turned to the rest of the maidens, "What do the rest of you think?"

    Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan and Shui Tianshui were all nodding in agreement.

    "I''ve no issue with waiting for a month¡­"

    "Sister Yuluo''s advice is good¡­"

    While she was the quietest most of the time but all the maidens respect Saintess Yuluo in their hearts.

    When Sword Saintess Yuluo had ''died'', they knew how grieved Ji Yuan had been.

    Jiajia returned her attention to Qiu Xiuyu with a wry smile, "In the meantime, may I ask you to stay here for a month as we extend our warm hospitality to you while we wait for Ji Yuan."

    Qiu Xiuyu could only nod because she knew that she had no other choice.

 Chapter 419 Back To The Outer Pangu Citadel

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth 6th level;

    Ji Yuan had just opened his eyes as he returned from his meditation to the mortal realm.

    A spirit key had immediately formed in front of him and flew into his soul sea. This spirit key was actually formed from the spiritual veins in the mortal realm and was the key to the inner citadel of the Pangu Citadel.

    However there was no sense of achievement in histest triumph over the trial. In fact, there was a sense of loss in his heart.

    It was because he had met Qiu Xiuyu in the mortal realm and lost her at the same time. Worse, he has lost his unborn child as well.

    He knows that he may never see her again as he had no idea where she will be ascending to in the Celestial Realm; the Celestial Realm has too many celestial fraternities and each one is almost impassable or else it won''t exist as a separate celestial fraternity. Only when a special trial like the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has appeared, will the cultivators from the different celestial fraternities ever meet for the first time.

    A lone and beautiful fifth realm golden celestial like Qiu Xiuyu will surely be bullied in the treacherous Celestial Realm¡­

    He was already imagining that Qiu Xiuyu would be telling their child this, "Don''t me your father for abandoning us. It isn''t his fault."

    He had never thought that the trial in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has the power to send the cultivators down to the mortal realm.

    He began to sigh bitterly; you may as well send me to a different part of the mortal realm. I rather not meet Xiuyu and caused her to suffer such heartbreaks. It is all the fault of my masculine profound pills.

    Then he sighed even more; maybe the trial can send me to the mortal realm where they use stic weapons that can shoot rubber pellets. Over there with my profound strength, I can easily be a man of steel since they do not have any profound strength at all. I will be the number one cultivator there since I am the only cultivator. Maybe I can even give myself a new celestial title. How about superman?

    But his attention quickly returned to his eyes in front of him; it was because Yun Chi was also rousing from her meditation and she was now smiling wryly at him.

    Immediately the heartbreak in his heart lessened a little when he saw the smiles of the Smiling Goddess Yun Chi.

    He sighed again; guess that my onlyfort is meeting Yun Chi again in the mortal realm and he is able to rekindle their love again.

    And of course, he had also found out that he is going to be a father of a daughter with Yun Chi.

    Why did I have to consume five masculine profound pills at one go?

    He sworn silently; I am not going to take another masculine profound pill in my lifetime ever again.

    "Don''t look at me like this." Yun Chi whispered to him with a wry smile. "Remember our n."

    Ji Yuan immediately nodded; they had developed a n during their love making session the night before.

    He took a quick look around but he did not see any of his beloved maidens among the thousands of meditating cultivators.

    He was startled: Don''t tell me that they''ve allpleted the trial already?

    Bute to think of that, he had actually been with Qiu Xiuyu for several weeks¡­and had forgotten the time.

    Soon Ji Yuan and Yun Chi had made their way from the meditating tform as they made their exit back to the golden hall where they had first entered.

    Ji Yuan was immediately delighted when he saw Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all already waiting for him.

    Mo Bei was also there as well.

    They were all smiling excitingly when they saw Ji Yuan but when they saw Yun Chi exiting with him, they could not resist taking back some of their excitement.

    As they surrounded Ji Yuan, the maidens purposely ignored Yun Chi.

    <o>,m Yun Chi smiled, "Don''t look at me like this. We just happen toplete the trial at around the same time."</o>

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she smiled back, "Do you think we care about your exnation? We can always ask Ji Yuan ourselves."

    Yun Chi smiled before she walked away.

    Meanwhile, Ji Yuan was feeling quite awkward as he watched the exchanges between Ling Feiyue and Yun Chi.

    Both were his beloved and he was trying very hard not to take sides.

    Actually Ling Feiyue''s smiles were more captivating and moving than Yun Chi. In fact, no one can smile the way she smiles without feeling moved.

    Ji Yuan was always delighted to see Ling Feiyue captivating smiles, if she smiles at all.

    Yun Chi on the other hand, was always smiling but her smiles were sometimes quite pretentious.

    After Yun Chi had walked away, Ji Yuan quicklyughed. "Haha. So how are your trial? Did you pass?"<sub> </sub>

    Mo Bei seized the opportunity to ask, "Little prot¨¦g¨¦ nephew, so did you pass? It is alright to fail. You can always try again. This trial has no reward but at least you are allowed to take an unlimited number of times until you can pass. It is not as though the gates of the Inner Pangu Citadel will be opening anytime soon. You have several more days more to retake your trial."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Senior, who says I didn''t pass my trial? I''ve passed. Don''t tell me that you haven''t passed it till now?"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Correction!" Mo Bei began to say righteously, "I can pass this trial anytime. It is just that I don''t want to pass it first lest my juniors here pester me for tips to pass. Now that you''ve passed, it is time for me to pass."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What a shameless excuse¡­

    Mo Bei grinned as he said to Ji Yuan, "If you''re free, why don''t we go elsewhereter? The cultivators are setting up shops and they are trading their profound treasures. Maybe we can even find a profound treasure or two that you will like."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I have no use for more profound treasures¡­"

    "Look what I got." Mo Bei interrupted him as he secretly showed him a profound pill out of view from the maidens before he quickly kept it away.

    Ji Yuan had naturally recognized it as the masculine profound pill and he was cursing Mo Bei; you old froggy. Do you even need this at your age?

    But he was suddenly grinning back and whispering back, "Show me where you got it."

    Mo Beiughed jovially, "Of course, of course."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan wasughing jovially as well.

    "Why are the two of youughing?" Little Princess asked curiously as she turned her mesmerizing eyes to query them curiously.

    "Nothing, nothing." Ji Yuan quickly answered.

    He turned to the six maidens to ask, "Haha. How are your trials? Is it easy to ovee?"

    Shui Xisi gave an infuriating reply, "I have retaken this trial 3 times. First time that I had failed, was because there was one cultivator that could not keep his hands off me and so I had kicked him real hard. Needless to say, I had failed the trial. This trial is so infuriating. Mortals are irritating."

    Yu Jingjing was equally infuriated, "The mortal realm that I went to, the women there did not even cover their boobs¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was shaking her head as well, "Where I go, the women there are all so scantily dressed and walking around in their panties. There is even one man that called himself Conan the King. But he is actually a barbarian that thinks all women should sleep with him. And you can''t believe it. The women there just throw themselves at him just because he had helped them and to them, the only kind payment is their bodies."

    "The mortal realm that I was at, the maidens there don''t even wear lingerie and they are all wearing transparent silk." Shui Xisi sighed with exasperation.

    Little Princess, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were all sighing, "We had all retook the trial more than once¡­"

    Ji Yuan and Mo Bei were suddenly rolling their eyes and looking at each other¡­

    Why didn''t they have such luck at the mortal realm?!

    Mo Bei was suddenly smiling, "Now that my juniors have ovee your trials and have obtained the key. As your senior, I ought to be serious now."

    He was actually thinking; I am going to keep retake this trial until I havended myself in the right mortal realm¡­

    Ji Yuan was already rubbing his chin and he was thinking the same; there is still some time right?

    He was grinning halfway and had taken a step to follow Mo Bei when Bai Qianfeng suddenly said to him, "My lord, do you know that once you havepleted the trial, you cannot take it again?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly answered, "I am not thinking about that. I just want to wish Senior Mo Bei good luck¡­"

    Mo Bei chuckled loudly as he made a mad rush for the trial portal. "Wish me good luck then. Hahaha..."

    Ji Yuan cursed him silently; I wish you bad luck and hope that you will transcend to a world of ugly women."

 Chapter 420 Have You Forgotten About The Secret Plan?

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to the maidens, "Senior Mo Bei says that there is a ce somewhere where cultivators trade their profound treasures. Maybe we ought to pay that ce a visit?"

    Ling Feiyue asked him curiously, "Didn''t we hear you telling Senior Mo Bei that you have no use for more profound treasures?"

    All the other maidens were all nodding.

    Yu Jingjing added with a perplexed look, "I have heard it loud and clear."

    Ji Yuan exined with a soft chuckle, "I just don''t want Senior Mo Bei to think that I am someone that will lust after profound treasures so I am just trying to keep up a good image in front of him. Haha."

    Little Princess nodded, "This sounds reasonable."

    Then she returned a wry smile, "But where is your golden robe? You are wearing it when you enter the trial but it is nowhere to be seen now."

    Ji Yuan was stunned; indeed he did not have his golden robe with him now and he can''t tell them that he has given it to Qiu Xiuyu¡­

    He quickly tried to exin, "That is because I feel that I am showing off too muchtely and that is why I am keeping a low profile now."

    "Oh really?" Little Princess looked at him with suspicion. "Howe I didn''t sense your golden robe beneath your robe?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is because it is still a show off if I wear it beneath my robe."

    Ling Feiyue asked with disbelief, "It is really rare for Ji Yuan not to show off his awesomeness."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Actually¡­" Ji Yuan tried to exin. "As you know, I''m a sword saint. It is against the dao of my sword to have such a formidable golden robe. By being too dependable on my golden robe, I can''t pursue the pinnacle of the sword dao anymore."

    When he had said this, he was looking quite pleased with his quick thinking; this looks like a most genius excuse.

    So he gave himself: Ji Yuan +1 point.

    Bai Qianfeng said, "But with your golden robe, you can disy your sword dao to your fullness without a care for your defenses. Isn''t it better?"

    All the maidens were nodding as they agreed with Bai Qianfeng. After all, a goddess had just spoken and she can''t be wrong.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He blinked his eyes before he said slowly, "Haha¡­actually¡­I wish to keep my offense and defense both in harmony¡­"

    "Your arguments seem weak." Ling Feiyue interrupted him.

    Shui Xisi kicked Ji Yuan on his leg and coldly said. "You have better be honest with us. You are lying."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck did they know that I am lying?!

    Ji Yuan slowly cleared his throat, "You won''t want to know the real reason."

    Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi said at the same time, "We do want to hear the reasons!"

    They were quickly followed by Yu Jingjing, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess.

    Only Feng Minyue remained quiet but her eyes were already showing doubts.

    Ji Yuan took a deep breath as he said, "Actually I was taking a bath in a small river in the mortal realm when I had heard something. In my rush to check things out, I forget about my golden robe that I had left behind on the riverbank. When I had returned to the riverbank, s, I had lost my golden robe. Now it is so embarrassing that I didn''t want to tell anyone of you."

    He started to look nkly at all six maidens, not knowing if they would buy his story.

    Actually he had no confidence at all because after he had said it out loud, he felt that this story was actually quiteme.

    All six maidens were looking at one another for a while.<sub> </sub>

    Finally Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "This sounds like the type of silly things that Ji Yuan will do¡­"

    "Indeed¡­" Little Princess nodded. "He is always so careless¡­"

    "Although it is unbelievable, it is the type of unbelievable things that Ji Yuan will do." Shui Xisi agreed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Howe they have such low regard of me in their hearts?!

    I will be silly?!

    Impossible!

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had suddenly approached Ji Yuan and his group again and she had stopped smiling, "What is taking you so long? Have you forgotten what you are supposed to do?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly; he had almost forgotten about it after being distracted by the masculine profound pill that Senior Mo Bei had shown to him earlier.

    He was supposed to execute upon their ''n'' to Bai Qianfeng.

    And of course he was also distracted by another escapade to the interesting and fun mortal realm¡­

    Bai Qianfeng frowned as she looked at Yun Chi coldly, "Why are you here again? We do not wee you."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Soon you will be."

    "Hmph. Never." Bai Qianfeng answered coldly.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Actually, I need the two of you to talk."

    Bai Qianfeng: ???

    Ling Feiyue said unhappily, "Why the two of them? Why can''t you involve us?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "May the rest of you stay here for the time being while the three of us talk privately."

    Bai Qianfeng and all the other maidens: ???

    Yu Jingjing asked, "My lord, what is going on?"

    Shui Xisi was also asking with a perplexed look, "Why can''t the rest of us follow you?"

    But Ji Yuan answered them solemnly, "Just the three of us. I am serious."

    When Bai Qianfeng and the rest of the maidens saw that Ji Yuan had never looked so serious before, they were quite startled.

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly as she stared at Yun Chi, "Very well then. I like to see what tricks you''re ying or¡­"

    She had turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Or what tricks he is ying."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Definitely not a twosome. Or you like a threesome?"

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    The rest of the maidens: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He cursed weakly: Yun Chi still got the mood to crack her wily jokes at this time¡­

 Chapter 421 This Is My Hall

    The Outer Pangu Citadel had hundreds of small halls and passage ways. Most of the halls were upied by the cultivators who were using it as their meditation hall or as a discussion hall.

    Ji Yuan was searching for an empty hall along the passage ways and unfortunately all of the halls were upied by the thousands of celestial cultivators in the Outer Pangu Citadel.

    Bai Qianfeng was asking Ji Yuan, "Are we there yet? Can''t we talk along the passageway?"

    Yun Chi was smiling, "Yes, are we there yet?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He thought bitterly: Yun Chi, do you need to add to my woes of finding a hall?

    But he quickly replied to Bai Qianfeng, "The walls have ears here. It is better that we talk inside the hall."

    "But there is no hall avable." Yun Chi smiled wryly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I will find a way." He muttered weakly.

    Ji Yuan then turned into the nearest hall with a dozen cultivators inside.

    As soon as he had entered the hall, he said. "Everyone, out of here immediately. On the count of 3, if you don''t leave this hall immediately, don''t me me for not warning you."

    When the group of 12 cultivators inside the hall heard Ji Yuan, they were allughing loudly.

    "Is he joking?"

    "Can''t he tell that we are all saints here?"

    "This is the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. None of us are simpletons."

    "Is he courting his own death?"

    "Or is he trying to show off in front of the two beautiful maidens behind him?"

    "They are indeed peerless¡­"

    "Rascal. What is your name and which celestial fraternity are you from?"

    Ji Yuan answered them, "I''m Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    When he had announced his name, all 12 of the cultivators were allughing out loud.

    p "He says he is from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"</anda>

    "He is only a beardless cultivator¡­"

    "I have heard that beardless cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity have a low status and are mostly ves¡­"

    "Hey, Ji Yuan. Where is your manly beard? Hahaha¡­"

    "Have your manhood beard been castrated? Muhahaha¡­"

    The eyes on Ji Yuan began to twitch as he had just been hurled the highest insult in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they had touched an untouchable topic by insulting his beard!

    All of a sudden he was seeing green.

    Ji Yuan immediately shed in front of 12 cultivators.

    When the 12 cultivators saw that Ji Yuan was actually making an irrational rush toward them, they were not worried at all but were allughing even more loudly as they know that they have sessfully provoked him.

    Now they all have the opportunity to teach this beardless arrogant cultivator a lesson¡­

    But all of a sudden three of the cultivators were suddenly floored onto the ground with thunderous crashes.

    As the other cultivators started to react, Ji Yuan had already shed his saint-step divine sword as he cut down another two cultivators.

    A power cultivator immediately exercised 130% of his profound strength. The reason why he can exercise 130% of his profound strength is because he has a powerful spirit animus and a powerful internal profound art.

    But to his horror, he was overwhelmed by Ji Yuan''s profound strength and he was suddenly sent flying through the air and he could hear his golden bones cracking at the same time!

    The remaining cultivators were stunned and they started to appraise Ji Yuan seriously.

    But right now none of them dared to act now.

    Because they could see that Ji Yuan was surrounded by an animus spirit with six spirit wings and he had saint-step divine sword that immediately pronounced that his cultivation realm was at the middle 8th cultivation realm level!

    They were all stunned.

    Immortal animus spirit?!

    Saint-step divine sword?! The most powerful divine sword in existence!

    8th cultivation realm level?!

    Is this Ji Yuan an immortal in disguise?

    Or is he using a powerful profound art to temporary increase his profound strength?

    Or is he taking some kinds of a drug?!

    Many more questions began to sh into the minds of the 12 cultivators¡­

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he felt his sword arm was lighter than usual.

    He was actually eximing silently: Wow. It seems that the secret attribute of my immortal spirit animus is speed¡­<sub> </sub>

    When he had disyed his immortal spirit animus, he had suddenly noticed that he was able to react much faster than before and before he knew it, he had already caused several of the cultivators to be on their floor.

    Ji Yuan said to them, "What are you all waiting for? Come attack me. I am itching for a fight¡­"

    Immediately all 12 cultivators quickly picked themselves up, with some even limping away while muttering. "We are not ying with you anymore¡­you may have this hall if you want to¡­"

    But when Ji Yuan gazed sternly at them as they scurried past him, most were saying to him:

    "Great hero, we didn''t recognize who you are¡­"

    "Please forgive us¡­"

    "We are just teasing you¡­"

    "No offense and pun intended¡­"

    But of course, there were still quite a few defiant cultivators.

    While they did not dare to insult Ji Yuan anymore, they still had some courage to say to Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi. "You can see how rascal this man is¡­he is like a barbarian¡­you will regret following him¡­"

    However Bai Qianfeng replied coldly, "I will be more ruthless than him."

    All 12 cultivators: ¡­

    Yun Chi was also saying sarcastically, "There is so little blood? I can do better than him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The two of them are deste goddesses. They are all so violent¡­

    When the hall was finally cleared, Bai Qianfeng folded her arms as she turned to ask Ji Yuan and Yun Chi. "So what do you want to tell me?"

    Ji Yuan began to scratch his cheek as he tried to think of a good approach to exin their objectives. "Actually¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng said coldly, "Actually you''re having an affair with Yun Chi, am I right? But why tell only me? You want me to cover it for you in front of the other maidens?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly protested, "Qianfeng, you''ve misunderstood our objectives. This isn''t what our objective in asking you toe here¡­"

    As he said it halfway, he was suddenly thinking: Actually Qianfeng isn''t wrong to suggest that. We are indeed having an affair. Maybe I can ask her to cover it up for me?

    Yun Chi was smiling, "Actually you''re right. We are indeed having an affair together."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This isn''t part of our n. Our n is to tell Qianfeng that you''re the Death God Mingwang so that she can help you¡­

    Bai Qianfeng gasped as she stared at Ji Yuan, "Is she telling the truth?"

    Ji Yuan quickly protested, "Not really true¡­"

    "I am carrying Ji Yuan''s child now." Yun Chi smiled wryly as she patted her belly gently.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was shocked beyond words as she stammered, "When did this happen¡­"

    She turned to ask Ji Yuan, "My lord, what have you done? Is she telling the truth?"

    Ji Yuan stammered weakly as he stole a nce at Yun Chi, "This isn''t part of our n¡­"

    "But she will surely know one of these days. So why not tell her?" Yun Chi smiled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng started to turn around to walk away, "Fine. I will keep your secret for you. But don''t expect me to befriend her. I just don''t like her."

    Yun Chi chuckled after her, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? We haven''t even told you why we have asked you toe here. I am sure that you will be interested in what we are going to tell you."

    Bai Qianfeng turned around to hum coldly, "I don''t think it is necessary anymore. I don''t want to know about your affair with Ji Yuan."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "You will be interested because I am the Death God Mingwang. If you want to leave this hall right now then I shall take Ji Yuan''s life immediately."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Taking my life isn''t part of our n¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was startled, "You¡­you are the Death God Mingwang?! Impossible!"

    Yun Chi began to smile coyly, "I can prove it to you."

 Chapter 422 Shall We Make A Deal?

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "I don''t believe¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping when Yun Chi''s spiritual profound animus had suddenly transformed into a deste profound animus.

    That was not all; Yun Chi had also flipped her white robe into the ck robe of the Death God Mingwang and she had also taken out the signature death mask of the Death God Mingwang as she said in an eerie masculine voice, "I''m indeed the Death God Mingwang."

    Bai Qianfeng gasped with great shock, "You''re a transsexual?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi hummed, "Do I look like I am a transsexual to you?"

    "Who knows?" Bai Qianfeng muttered as she looked at Ji Yuan.

    "I can prove that she isn''t." Ji Yuan quickly said. "I have checked every inch very thoroughly."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng weakly said, "I''ve never known that the Death God Mingwang will actually be a woman. This is indeed very surprising."

    "No one has ever known about my true identity except for the two of you." Yun Chi curved her lips to smile.

    "You havee to tell me only this?" Bai Qianfeng frowned and she was starting to look confused. "So what is your purpose?"

    Yun Chi quickly retracted her deste profound animus before saying solemnly, "I want you to join under my tutge. I will help you to regain back your deste profound strength."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "I don''t want to. I am starting to like my righteous profound strength now. With my spirit profound animus, the Pangu Immortals will not be able to know my true identity."

    "Heh." Yun Chi smiled. "I didn''t say anything about removing your spirit profound animus, did I? You can be like me and you can have dual spirit and deste profound energies."

    "What if I say no?" Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly. "You want to force me into a fight?"

    Then she turned to stare at Ji Yuan with disbelief, "I can''t believe that you are with the Death God Mingwang and you even know Yun Chi''s real identity. Why didn''t you tell us? Does she have your handle in her hands?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Actually¡­"

    Yea, she got my little handle in her hands and I have my little handle in her as well¡­

    But he quickly said. "Of course not. Yun Chi has always been on our side. She is actually a heroine that doesn''t want the Great Demon God''s n to seed. She is erm¡­actually working undercover¡­"

    "That''s enough already." Yun Chi interrupted with a resigned sigh. "You''re just randomly bbering and making it sounds so fake."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed weakly. "I just didn''t want the two of you to fight all of a sudden."

    Yun Chi hummed softly before she smiled to Bai Qianfeng, "I am also an ambitious True Deste God and I did not want to be subservient to anyone¡­"

    "Except for me of course." Ji Yuan interrupted with a grin.<sub> </sub>

    "Can you step aside please?" Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng said coldly at the same time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were both startled that they had actually said the same thing at the same time and they were suddenly smiling.

    "It does seem that we have a sudden consensus." Yun Chi smiled wryly.

    "Indeed." Bai Qianfeng was also smiling.

    Then she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Why are you still here? This hall is so big. Can''t you move aside first?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "At most I will keep my mouth shut."

    There was no indication that he intended to move aside and he was curious to hear what Yun Chi will say to Bai Qianfeng.

    Yun Chi ignored Ji Yuan and said to Bai Qianfeng, "You are a goddess. A deste goddess. But not yet a great goddess. If I am to help you and impart to you my profound arts, you can surely be able to ovee your current cultivation realm and be a great goddess. Do you not want to be a great goddess?"

    Bai Qianfeng was startled and there was a hesitation in her eyes. Indeed, Yun Chi had just made her a most tempting offer.

    Slowly she asked, "So what is your condition?"

    Yun Chi smiled as she answered, "Aid me to fight the Great Demon God. Help Ji Yuan to fight the Great Demon God."

    "That''s all?" Bai Qianfeng pondered for a while before she asked again.

    Yun Chi smiled, "Help me to keep my identity a secret from the others and of course, support me in front of the others."

    She chuckled softly before adding, "You ought to know that I am extremely unpopring from the rest of the maidens."

    Bai Qianfeng took a look at Ji Yuan before she asked, "Tell me honestly, are you really carrying Ji Yuan''s child? Because it is impossible¡­"

    "I didn''t lie. I am indeed carrying Ji Yuan''s daughter." Yun Chi smiled coyly as she touched her belly lightly. "I don''t want to risk my daughter''s life. If you don''t want to help me then I may just join the side of the Great Demon God. After all, I may never get to have a child again."

    Ji Yuan could not resist a soft murmur, "Don''t worry, I am very fertile¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng ignored Ji Yuan as she sighed softly, "Deal then. Since you are the Death God Mingwang and I don''t want such a powerful enemy on our backs as well¡­"

    Then she was suddenly smiling, "Wee to the family then. I really don''t know how he has managed to seduce you but he is really very bold."

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "He is indeed very bold¡­"

    "As bold as an iron-gut donkey." Ji Yuan grinned.

    Xiang Li chuckled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Naturally Big Brother is bold with my constant encouragement of course."

    Fairy Anyang muttered almost incoherently: With your constant corruption of course¡­

 Chapter 423 Can We Be Friends?

    When the other five maidens saw Bai Qianfeng returning with Yun Chi in a cordial manner, they were actually quite surprised.

    What is going on?

    This is the most foremost question that is in their minds right now.

    Ling Feiyue turned to Ji Yuan with a perplexed look as she muttered softly, "What is going on¡­"

    She had thought of rebuking Yun Chi again after she had returned but right now, she was really very confused.

    Even Little Princess and Shui Xisi who were both equally strong willed, were rendered wordless as they turned to look at Bai Qianfeng for an answer.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly, "Maiden Yun Chi here is actually very sorry for her past haughty attitude toward all of us and hope that we can put aside our past enmities and we can all be friends."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Yes, I am indeed very sorry. Please allow me to offer you my sincere apologies."

    Everyone, including Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng were all looking at Yun Chi weakly because she did not look the least sorry and she continued to maintain her haughty smiles.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Yun Chi is really sorry and it is in her insides. She''s just not good in disying her emotions."

    "That is right." Bai Qianfeng quickly added for Yun Chi.

    She was quick toe to Yun Chi''s defense; it is because she is actually secretly relieved that Yun Chi is on the same side now. When she had learnt that Yun Chi is actually the Death God Mingwang and that she wants to aid them, she actually got a big relief. After all, she did not want to fight against the Death God Mingwang and was even nning to sacrifice herself for Ji Yuan''s sake.

    She is actually quite fearful as the Death God Mingwang is a true god and she knows that she will not stand a chance.

    It is no wonder that Yun Chi seems very casual about her trial when they were partying with her; as the top cultivator in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she has no little fear from anyone.

    Ling Feiyue slowly said, "Since Sister Qianfeng has pleaded for Yun Chi, I don''t see any reason why we cannot be friends."

    "As long as she isn''t our enemy, I am alright as well." Little Princess sighed softly.

    Shui Xisi muttered unhappily, "As long as she doesn''t remove her mask, I can ept her as a friend."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he had heard her; he almost burst outughing. So Sisi is just being envious that Yun Chi is such a beautiful maiden. Oh well, I just have to write her a good poem to pacify herter¡­

    Yun Chi smiled before she chuckled softly, "Actually, I don''t want to be just friends with all of you. I am carrying Ji Yuan''s child now. We can all be sisters."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were all gasping with shock¡­

    "You''re lying¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is never alone with you¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, is that true?"

    "This is impossible¡­"

    "I don''t believe¡­"

    "Even hundreds of years of trying will not necessary grant a child to saint cultivators¡­"

    "Ji Yuan?! Where did he go?"<sub> </sub>

    Indeed Ji Yuan had suddenly slipped away while the maidens were shocked by Yun Chi sudden announcement.

    He had anticipated the shock and he had quickly left the scene.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, where are you going? Why did you leave all of a sudden?"

    Ji Yuan exined awkwardly, "They will surely have an argument for hours so it is wiser for us to leave first. Let them resolve their own conflicts first before we make our appearance."

    "Oh¡­" Xiang Li muttered. "So where are you going now? To find more maidens?"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "What else."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Thest thing that I have in mind is to expand my harem." He protested immediately. "With so many of them, they are already giving me a terrible headache."

    Fairy Anyang said wryly, "That is because if they gang up, you know that you can''t win."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Who says I can''t win? I just don''t want to bully them and make them cry. I am a gentleman, you know."

    Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes before she smiled weakly, "So where are you going now?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a loud chuckle, "Do you remember that Senior Mo Bei said that there is a trading hub somewhere here? I''m looking for more masculine profound pills, of course."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "Why did you need the masculine profound pills for? You don''t need it¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to sigh bitterly, "I mustn''t allow Yun Chi to know that I am actually so weak without the masculine profound pills. She will surely look down upon me if she knows the truth."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    "My lord! You are already addicted to the masculine profound pills. You must quickly kick this bad habit!"

    Ji Yuan sighed even more bitterly, "I can''t. I don''t want Yun Chi to think that I am losing interest in her and hence I cannot perform like before."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother is wise! I hope that Big Brother can find more of the masculine profound pillster!"

    "Haha. Xiang Li, you are the best!" Ji Yuan chuckled loudly.

    Fairy Anyang sighed weakly; they are both not paying any attention to me¡­they are treating my sound advice as though it is the devil advice¡­

 Chapter 424 The Trading Hub

    Fairy Anyang made ast attempt to persuade Ji Yuan not to be addicted to the masculine profound pills, "My lord. You ought to cultivate your heart and you should not pursue pleasures."

    Ji Yuan disagreed immediately. "I need it to satisfy all my beloveds. How can you say that I am pursuing pleasure? Xiang Li, do you agree or not?"

    "Of course not." Xiang Li giggled.

    "See! Even Xiang Li agrees with me. Haha." Ji Yuanughed.

    Fairy Anyang muttered softly, "It ispletely pointless to ask Xiang Li. Her answers are too predictable."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I disagree. Sometimes I don''t even know what Xiang Li will say to me. Haha."

    Xiang Li nodded with soft giggles, "I agree with Big Brother on this."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    I need to save this silly lord of mine from self-destruction¡­

    So she said firmly, "My lord, do not let yourself be addicted to the masculine profound pills. In which cultivation story is there a MC that is addicted to drugs like you? Only a loser MC will get addicted to drugs."

    Ji Yuanughed it off, "The MCs in the cultivation stories are all too goody good. Even if they have a harem, they act like they are saints. I am the REAL MC. Muhahaha¡­"

    "You need to have faith in true love." Fairy Anyang said firmly. "Using unorthodox means like this to boost your masculine belittle the maidens, especially to Maiden Yun Chi. She likes you not because of your masculine performance but because of your good virtues. Therefore you must believe in true love."

    Ji Yuan pondered for a while before he had a sudden enlightenment, "That is right. My true love applies equally to all my beloveds. Therefore I must get enough of the masculine profound pills to satisfy all of them."

    Xiang Li nodded excitingly, "Big Brother, well said!"

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    I give up¡­

    My lord, you are too corrupted¡­

    But she decided to try again.

    After all, she refused to believe that she cannot break the corruption that was holding Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan has a good soul and he is more righteous than most of the self-righteous cultivators.

    "My lord, between true love and masculine profound pills, you can only choose one." Fairy Anyang told him. "Please make a choice."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "My beloved Anyang, let me tell you a little story first. A mother says to her child, between a small apple and a big apple, which one do you want?"

    "The child answers, he wants the big apple."

    "But the mother tells him, he should be polite and chooses the small apple. It is because you have to be polite and chooses the small apple. My Beloved Anyang, do you agree with that? So which one will you choose?"

    Fairy Anyang answered immediately, "The mother is right it is polite to choose the small apple. Never be too greedy. I will also choose the small apple."

    Then Ji Yuan turned to say to Xiang Li, "My Beloved Xiang Li, which one will you choose? The big apple or the small apple?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Of course I will choose the big apple?"

    Ji Yuan grinned and asked, "Why?"

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before answering, "I will choose the big apple of course. Why choose the small apple when I can choose the big apple? Xiang Li of course wants the bigger apple."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Hahaha. Xiang Li, you are very honest with your feeling. Between fake politeness and true honesty, you have chosen to be honest with your feelings."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I am always honest."

    Even the Great Beyond Goddess who was secretly listening to their conversations was praising Xiang Li in secret, "I will pick the big apple as well."

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "So Big Brother you will pick the big apple as well?"

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "I''ve thought you understand me the most. But it seems that I am wrong. Why pick the big apple only? I want both the small and big apple. Between true love and masculine profound pills, I want both at the same time. This is called politeness and honesty at the same time. Muhahaha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li, Great Beyond Goddess: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang was so speechless that she muttered wordlessly: I give up on himpletely¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess was so enraged that she started to mouth profanities, "How dare you make sport out of me. Screw you Ji Yuan!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt a sudden jolt in his body that shook him to the very core.<sub> </sub>

    He was so startled that he muttered, "What is going on with my body? Am I injured? Or is it because of the consequences of using my immortal spirit animus?"

    He quickly circted his profound energies throughout his body in order to ensure that he was alright but he could not find anything wrong with his body.

    "What is going on?" He muttered weakly. "Or is it because someone is cursing me?"

    But since he could not find anything wrong with his body, he continued on his way and soon he found the trading hub that Senior Mo Bei had told him about.

    The trading hub was filled with thousands of cultivators and it was in a huge hall that can amodate thousands of cultivators without any problem.

    So he was soon walking around to look for the masculine profound pills and was asking around for it.

    But he soon got a shock of his life.

    "1 million high grade spirit stones?! What the heck?! This is merely a low level masculine profound pill!"

    A disgruntled cultivator who was selling it answered, "Although it is a low level profound pill but you can''t find it in the Celestial Realm nowadays and the secrets of concocting it has been lost. This is thest one already. Yesterday it is 900k high grade spirit stones. If you don''t want it, someone will want it."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Let me think about it first¡­"

    An excited cultivator had suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan and the disgruntled cultivator, "You have a masculine profound pill?! Here is a one million high grade spirit stones! Quick, give it to me!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I didn''t say that I didn''t want. It is just that I don''t have so many high grade spirit stones with me at the moment¡­"

    But the disgruntled cultivator ignored Ji Yuan and quickly sold it to the excited cultivator.

    Ji Yuan cursed them weakly as he continued his way around the trading hub. "I don''t believe that no one is selling a masculine profound pill. This is rip-off price and I am not falling for it¡­"

    "What?!"

    "1.2mil high grade spirit stones for one masculine profound pill?!"

    "1.3mil?"

    "1.5mil?!"

    "What the heck?!"

    "Are these cultivators crazy?"

    "Are they doing bang, bang in the Outer Pangu Citadel?!"

    Ji Yuan was actually right; many of the cultivators in the Outer Pangu Citadel are actually trying to impress the numerous saintesses around.

    "These low-ball drug addicts." Ji Yuan cursed them venomously.

    As he looked around the trading hub, he was getting desperate.

    Fairy Anyang said bitterly to him, "My lord, you have no high grade spirit stones. There is no point looking around."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "You will never know unless you''ve searched. Maybe there is a fool around. You will never know."

    Fairy Anyang: ...

    Suddenly Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan, with a panic look "Big Brother, so how? We can''t pleasure Maiden Yun Chi anymore if we can''t find more of the masculine profound pills."

    Ji Yuan was getting panicky as well but he was soon smiling, "We can always borrow the high grade spirit stones from Feiyue and Sisi. They are rich¡­"

    But he was soon saying, "They will surely get suspicious¡­"

    "Haha¡­" He was grinning all of a sudden. "I seem to remember that Senior Mo Bei has one masculine profound pill. Maybe we can get it from him instead."

    "How?" Xiang Li asked curiously. "I don''t think he will give it to you."

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin, "Of course we are going to trick him for it."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    He is desperate¡­

 Chapter 425 Are You Having Fun, Mo Bei?

    A few dayster;

    Many things had happened during the past few days

    Ji Yuan was now sitting at the entrance of the hall that was nearest to the Inner Pangu Citadel and he was looking quite miserable.

    It was not because he cannot find the masculine profound pills¡­

    But because he was forced to stand outside the hall entrance and not inside the hall entrance where the seven beautiful maidens were in.

    At this moment, he was staring nkly inside the hall where Yun Chi wasughing with the other six maidens.

    He had not expected that the other six maidens would be giving Yun Chi such a warm reception after such a short time.

    She had used the most direct method to win over the six maidens (Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing) by showering them with extremely rare profound treasures).

    He had suddenly realized that Yun Chi is filthy rich.

    And of course, the other maidens have realized that they can do nothing against Yun Chi especially when she is carrying Ji Yuan''s child now. So this is how they havee to ept Yun Chi.

    Fairy Anyang had pointed out, "She is a true goddess. So she definitely has many profound treasures that she has umted in the past. Goodness knows how ancient she is."

    "These maidens have no backbones at all. They can be so easily bribed. I look down upon them!" He had replied to Fairy Anyang.

    "Is it because Maiden Yun Chi never gives you anything?" Fairy Anyangughed.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How does she know about this?

    He quickly protested, "Of course not!"

    "I am angry that they are treating me like a watchdog and asking me to watch over the entrance."

    That was partially the truth.

    Yun Chi had wanted an empty hall so she had asked Ji Yuan to clear the hall for them.

    Problem was, she had to choose the hall that was nearest to the Inner Pangu Citadel and that was the most popr hall for numerous cultivators.

    But of course, he had no problem clearing out the cultivators from the hall.

    But the problem is, everyone knows that there are seven great beauties in this hall and he has to fight daily challenges after challenges continuously because these lecherous cultivators are all so eager to enter the hall to have a look at the seven beautiful maidens.

    So he had to continuously watch over the hall entrance to prevent anyone from looking at the seven maidens.

    And he cannot ask them for help either.

    Because he is an alpha male and he values his face a lot.

    Yun Chi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi had teased him, "You can do it alone and you don''t need our help."

    Right now, he was watching over the hall entrance and was peeping inside but at the same time, he was also warily watching the movements of the other cultivators who were trying to get close to the hall entrance so as to peep inside.

    No way will he allow himself to be green by these cultivators!

    Especially when these seven maidens were changing inside¡­

    He could not help ncing inside the hall even though the maidens had told him not to; right now inside the hall, the seven maidens were allughing together.

    His sharp eyes were trying to look down under Yun Chi''s short skirt and he was peeping at the rest of the maidens too, paying special attention to Feng Minyue and Shui Xisi especially.

    Fairy Anyang was looking a little awkward because she could see in Ji Yuan''s soul sea that he was imaging them to be naked and he was inspecting their bodies.

    Indeed Ji Yuan was imagining them to be naked in his mind because he was familiar with all their bodies except for Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    In his eyes now, Yun Chi sexy legs and firm boobs were naked in front of him even though she was fully clothed.

    And he was looking at the naked figure of Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing too.

    Fairy Anyang tried to tell him, "My lord, this is the side effect of the masculine profound pills after it had worn off. You got to resist its temptations and focus on cultivating your heart. Once the side effects have passed, you will be normal again."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he replied sheepishly, "But I don''t want to be normal."<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    All of a sudden his sharp eyes caught Senior Mo Bei walking in the hallway.

    Mo Bei had also spotted him as well as he quickly shed to him, "Junior Ji Yuan, why are you standing here all alone?"

    Ji Yuan managed a weak smile, "That is my business and not yours. You must be enjoying yourself in the mortal realm, am I right?

    He was green with envy as he looked at Mo Bei because he knew that he was enjoying himself down at the mortal realm.

    But Mo Bei sighed bitterly, "s, don''t remind me of this."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "Too enjoyable to share."

    Mo Bei frowned, "I feel like killing the mortals."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang was giggling all of a sudden in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Are you thinking that he is enjoying in the mortal realm below?"

    "Of course. What else?" Ji Yuan grumbled unhappily. "He gets to see all the boobs."

    Fairy Anyang chuckled, "You men are all so lecherous. Naturally he won''t get to see any of the fantastic scenes because it is a trial of the heart. Only the women will get to see such a scene but not the men."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Why didn''t you tell me earlier? Do you know that I am so sad for the past couple of days because of this?"

    Fairy Anyang giggled, "I didn''t want to bust your naked illusions."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Then he patted Mo Bei on his shoulder, "Senior, I really sympathize with you. Haha!"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Who is inside the hall? Why are you here?"

    Mo Bei took a step toward the hall entrance but in the next instance, he was punched by Ji Yuan in the face and hadnded on the ground with an agony yell.

    "Junior Ji Yuan, why did you hit me all of a sudden?!" Mo Bei shouted angrily at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "My beloveds are changing inside. So I am only acting defensively. Haha¡­"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had thought of something and he was grinning to himself.

    So he suddenly said, "Senior, I found out something about the masculine profound pills that have been selling around here. Most of them are fake and I afraid that you have been had."

    Mo Bei was startled, "Surely not! At this level, the price for one masculine profound pill is really exorbitant!"

    "You don''t mind taking it out so that I can help you to inspect it?" Ji Yuan asked with great concern.

    Mo Bei panicky took out the masculine profound pill to show Ji Yuan, "Junior, help me to check if this is real or not¡­"

    All of a sudden he had turned ashen.

    It was because Ji Yuan had suddenly put the masculine profound pill into his mouth and had swallowed it.

    And he was saying to him, "The only way to know if this is a real masculine profound pill is by testing its effect for you."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

 Chapter 426 Prelude To The Inner Pangu Citadel (1)

    Mo Bei immediately ranted upon Ji Yuan, "Junior! How can you be so shameless as to eat my masculine profound pill?!"

    Ji Yuan answered innocently, "Senior, are you not the one that have asked me to check for you if this masculine profound pill is the real thing?"

    Mo Bei stammered, "I did¡­but¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "But I am not an alchemist nor am I good in identifying profound pills. Therefore I can only use this stupid method to check for you."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Junior Ji Yuan, if you are not my rtive now, I will have beaten you to a bloody pulp. Count yourself lucky that you have grand-niece Xue Qianxue as your protection."

    Mo Bei fumed unhappily.

    "Senior, I am your junior and your family now too. You ought to take care of me¡­"

    "I am just being helpful to you earlier. Don''t get too angry with me¡­"

    "At most if I have another masculine profound pill, I will give it back to you¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he patted Mo Bei on his shoulder, "On ount that we are rtives, if you have anything to ask of me in the future then I will surely help you."

    Mo Bei frowned, "Now that is better. I hope that you will keep this promise of yours."

    "Of course I will. You have my word as Sword Saint Ji Yuan." Ji Yuanughed.

    "I have already forgotten that you are a sword saint." Mo Bei frowned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly before he said solemnly, "As long as it is not against my martial honor, I will surely help you."

    Mo Bei looked a little appeased, "That is better¡­"

    "Wait, I am not done yet." Ji Yuan interrupted him with a soft chuckle. "As long as it doesn''t involve any financial investments, don''t require me to help you to write a poem to impress the maidens and doesn''t require me to lose my face, I will surely help you."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "You might as well tell me that you won''t help me straightaway." Mo Bei cursed Ji Yuan immediately. "It is no wonder your soul is so polluted."

    "My soul is pure now." Ji Yuan reminded him with a loud chuckle.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "You are not afraid that I will tell your beloveds that you have just consumed a masculine profound pill?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Senior Mo Bei, do you want me to tell them that this masculine profound pill hase from you? Do you want me to tell the Mo n and Qianxue that you are a lusty old man?"<sub> </sub>

    Mo Bei began tough bitterly, "Haha¡­Junior, don''t be so serious. I am only teasing you. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as well, "I am only teasing my senior too. Haha¡­"

    <o>,m The two of them continued tough jovially but they were actually cursing at each other.</o>

    Theirmotions had attracted the maidens who were inside the hall.

    Ling Feiyue was the first maiden to step out of the hall and she was immediately followed by the rest.

    She smiled immediately, "So it is Senior Mo Bei. You have returned from your trial. How is it?"

    Mo Bei said weakly, "I''ve managed to pass after 30 tries."

    "30 tries?!" All seven maidens gasped. Even Yun Chi was surprised.

    This must be a new record.

    The truth was that Mo Bei was trying to get to the ''right'' mortal realm and he had failed his trial on purpose."

    But no matter how many times he had tried, he only managed to get the naked men but not the naked women as his mortal realm trial setting.

    Worse, he had his masculine profound pill stolen by Ji Yuan when he had returned¡­

    All of a sudden Mo Bei had frozen on the spot; it was because he had suddenly spotted Yun Chi and she was without her mask.

    This maiden is so gorgeous¡­

    He seemed to have remembered her a few days ago but she was wearing a mask but he had not asked for her name.

    He quickly said, "Maiden, I am Mo Bei. I believe that we have met a few days ago. I wonder what your name is and if you are attached. Hahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Yun Chi is my name. I am afraid that I don''t like men with beards. They are ugly. Moreover, even if you want to shave off your beard, you''re a little toote because I belong to Ji Yuan now."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei began to smile weakly; he had always been very direct but he had never been put into an awkward position because everyone always gives him a face or two. But this maiden just shot him on his foot.

    Ji Yuan was secretlyughing; good luck in pulling a fast one with Yun Chi. Her tongue is very sharp, no matter if you are offensive or not.

    Mo Bei was saved from further awkwardness when a golden light began to sh all over the Outer Pangu Citadel.

    Everyone was gasping as their divine senses picked up a message.

    The Inner Pangu Citadel will be opening in 3 days'' time!

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Finally! We can ess the Inner Pangu Citadel. I wonder what is in there and what the trials inside will be?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as well, "Hopefully we don''t get to meet the rest of the cultivators here."

    "Why?" Yu Jingjing asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Because I''ve made so many enemies here while clearing the hall for you."

    All the maidens wereughing jovially.

    Ji Yuan muttered. "Not funny at all."

 Chapter 427 Prelude To The Inner Pangu Citadel (2)

    There is still three days before the Inner Pangu Citadel will open.

    All the cultivators that have already obtained their Pangu Key will be able to enter into the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    Many of the cultivators that have not yetpleted the trial are now rushing toplete the trial hastily.

    Actually the Pangu Key is not hard to obtain at allpared to the usual trials but it is a perquisite to enter the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    Ji Yuan knows that he only has to wait patiently for the next 3 days.

    As usual, he was camping outside the hall so that no cultivators can approach his women.

    And once again, he was frowning why he was not inside¡­

    He soon dozed off.

    Ji Yuan soon woke up and he was quite startled to find himself in a dark forest.

    "Where am I?"

    He looked cautiously around him and he was greatly perplexed.

    "Where are my beloveds?"

    He extended his divine sense around him but there were no profound signatures everywhere.

    "Xiang Li, Anyang. Where are we?" He turned to his soul sea to ask.

    All of a sudden he turned ashen; he could not even sense where Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were!

    "This¡­what is going on?"

    "Is this a dream?"

    "This must be a dream."

    He had suddenly decided that it was a dream because everything looked very surreal.

    This was the very first time that he had such a realistic dream.

    He was smiling bitterly, "Fairy Anyang has warned me of the side effects of taking the masculine profound pills. I should have listened to her."

    As he pondered to himself, he continued to explore his surroundings.

    Soon, he was quite startled toe to find a walled gate in front of him and it read the ''Purification Vi.''

    "Purification Vi?"

    He stared weakly at the name of the vi before he pulled on the handle of the metallic door as he knocked it against the metallic gate.

    "Hello. Is there anyone there?"

    Ji Yuan was feeling a little spooked by now because the surroundings had an eerie atmosphere and he did not even know where he was.

    All of a sudden his divine sense could pick someone approaching and he could even hear light footsteps.

    He was smiling now: So there is someone here and it is not a ghost house. Hahaha¡­

    As the footsteps got closer, he was pleased to sniff a sweet fragrance in the air.

    He thought with a grin, "This maiden must be a beautiful maiden."

    As the gates opened, two astonishing beautiful maidens had suddenly appeared in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was stunned not because they were astonishing beautiful but because he had recognized them.

    But he could barely recognize them because they were looking extremely lofty and forbidden.

    "Xiang Li, Anyang. Why are you here?"

    Xiang Li answered nonchntly, "Young master, I may not know how you know our names but since you are here, our mistress has bade you to be a guest of the Purification Vi."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Xiang Li, are you teasing your big brother?"

    Then he turned to Fairy Anyang, "Anyang, you are always sincere and honest with me. Don''t joke with me anymore."

    But Fairy Anyang also answered nonchntly, "Young master, I do not know you at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then the two maidens had turned around, leaving Ji Yuan to admire their bare backs and swaying butts.

    "Where are you taking me?" He asked curiously.

    Xiang replied, "Naturally, we are taking you to see our mistress."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Your mistress?"

    Then he began to wonder which one of the seven maidens he would be dreaming of next.

    Yun Chi?

    Feiyue?

    Maiden Feng?

    Or Xisi?

    Little Princess?

    Jingjing?

    Maybe it is Qianfeng¡­

    Then he was grinning: Maybe it is Jiajia. Finally I got the chance to bang Jiajia in my dreams. Haha¡­

    A little whileter, he found himself entering a big golden hall.

    He was gasping immediately: this vi sure looks very big. But since this is only a dream, everything is possible.

    Barely had he entered the big golden hall, he was gasping again.

    It was because a sensual maiden with bare back was lying on a bed at the end of the hall.

    Although there were many silken curtains in front, this did not block Ji Yuan''s view as the silken curtains were quite transparent and he had really sharp eyes.

    Although he could not see her face as her back was facing him but he could tell that she is really a most beautiful maiden. After all, all of his beloveds are all peerless beauties of the Celestial Realm.

    He wasughing aloud immediately, "Heh! I wonder who this mistress really is. Come and show me your face. I can''t wait for you to kneel down and pleasure your lord. Haha¡­"

    "How audacious! Kneel down before me!"

    Ji Yuan could only see her raise five fingers and he could feel a strong profound shockwave fluttering toward him.

    Before he even knows what was happening, he was suddenly on his knees.

    Or rather, he was ttened on the ground, suppressed by a powerful profound force greater than anything that he had ever known.

    "This¡­" Ji Yuan muttered but he was quickly interrupted by two kicks from Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang.

    Xiang Li hummed coldly, "Be quiet in front of our mistress. You can only take instructions and only answer when questioned."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered bitterly, "Even if this is just a dream, this dream has gone too far."

    "Alright, great mistress. Just turn around and let me have a look at your face so that I know which one of you has been cursing me in my sleep..."

    Fairy Anyang had suddenly kicked Ji Yuan on his face with her foot, "Be quiet."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The mysterious mistress said, "Ji Yuan, do you know what your crimes are?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed, "Did Imit a crime?"

    He looked really innocent because he thought he was really innocent!

    How could he possibly havemitted any crimes?

    Don''t tell me that she is referring to the masculine profound pill that I have taken from Senior Mo Bei?

    Since this is a dream and it is rted to Senior Mo Bei, then this mysterious maiden must surely be my adorable Qianxue.

    So Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Haha. Qianxue. I know it is you. How can you bear to punish me?"

    The mysterious maiden answered, "I am not Qianxue."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You are not Qianxue? Then who are you? Do you mind turning around so that I can identify you?"

    The mysterious maiden answered, "If you see my face then you will surely die. So do you want to see my face?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 428 Prelude To The Inner Pangu Citadel (3)

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly to himself: If I look at your face then I must die?

    By now he had totally no idea who this mysterious maiden was except that she looked extremely beautiful.

    He had made this conclusion because he could not recognize her serene voice which was unique.

    None of the maidens sound like her unless they are faking their voices.

    He could only ask weakly, "So what do you want with me?"

    The mysterious maiden who was called great mistress answered without turning her head over as she lie on one side of the bed, "You shall stay here in this hall to meditate until the effects of your masculine profound pill has worn off."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately, "This dream is too ridiculous. If you got anything against me, just go after me. Why did you have to go after my masculine profound pill? Do you know much trouble I have to go to get my hands on it? It is worth 1 million high grade spirit stones on the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    RUMBLE!!!

    Ji Yuan had suddenly been interrupted as he was ttened instantly on the ground again with a loud crashing sound when the mysterious great mistress suddenly raised her five fingers again.

    She said serenely, "You can only listen and not raise your objections."

    "Wh¡­why?" Ji Yuan asked weakly but his eyes were defiantly.

    He was not going to be submitted to his dream. After all, he had his Undying Fighting Spirit to fight against his dream and he believed that he would eventually triumph over it.

    The mysterious great mistress seemed to be able to see his defiant thoughts and answered, "You''re a going to be a romantic cultivator and you''re not going to touch a single masculine profound pill in your lifetime. Therefore you are going to stay here until you have purged out the masculine profound pill from your body. If you are wise, you will do it now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    NO WAY!!!

    He protested silently.

    After all his troubles of obtaining histest masculine profound pill, no way he would surrender it even though he knew that this was just a dream and it was not real.

    So he smirked coldly, "Heh. What if I don''t agree? Are you going to suppress me in the same spot while you are lying there? I think not! If you want me to purge my masculine profound pill out, you need to at least move your little butt and face me one to one."

    The mysterious great mysterious answered coolly, "Then I shall crash your balls."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was literally speechless; this is the first time that a maiden has said something this crude in front of him and he did not quite believe that it hase out from the mouth of a maiden.

    Well, he quickly said to himself, this is after all, just a dream. Anything is possible¡­

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "I yield¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had disyed his immortal spirit animus as six profound wings sprouted from his profound animus and he had broken freed of the suppression that was upon him.

    "I yield not! Haha."

    There was a ring of shockwave around him that immediately sent Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang to scurry backward.

    Seizing the opportunity, Ji Yuan immediately shed toward the mysterious great mistress as he shouted. "I will like to see who you are!"

    The mysterious great mistress had suddenly turned around with a soft gasp as she raised her fingers once more.

    Ji Yuan could see that she had a veil and was dressed in an almost transparent toga that showed her body clearly.

    His first thought was that her eyes. It was unlike any eyes that he had seen before and was not golden. Rather, it was a dark golden as though it was filled with the lights of the stars in her pupils. Next was that her figure was really nice and that she was not wearing any panties¡­

    His second thought was a miserable agonizing pain that shook him to the very core as an invisible profound force had struck his body and even cracking his golden body.

    His third thought was that she must be an internal power cultivator because he had not seen her disying any profound aura.

    His fourth thought was a perplexing one because none of the maidens that he had known had the internal profound power to use their profound strength at such a powerful strength over a distance that could even crack through his golden body; one must know that right now when he was disying his immortal spirit animus, his profound defenses had also been raised to the eighth cultivation realm level and moreover he had already formed his golden core.

    Therefore, it was quite impossible for any internal power cultivators to even damage him without engaging him at point-nk except for her.

    His fifth thought was that he must be experiencing an unrealistic nightmare because in real life, no cultivators have such a powerful internal profound power like this mysterious maiden.

    The mysterious maiden was smiling when she had heard the loud cracking of Ji Yuan''s golden ribs, and she wasmanding as she disyed another five fingers gesture at the same time to Ji Yuan. "Down!"<sub> </sub>

    But to her surprise, Ji Yuan had continued to sh forward as though he did not experience any pain and suddenly he was upon her!

    Ji Yuan actually felt extreme agony pain but he was trained to endure pain during a fight. Moreover his pain threshold had been enforced by the fact that this was just a dream and it was not real.

    His only thought was that he must definitely win over his dream and uncovered the identity of this sensuous mysterious maiden!

    Ji Yuan shouted aloud as he reached out with his fingers, "Today I will uncover you and end my nightmare!"

    The mysterious great mistress scoffed with amusement as Ji Yuan missed her veil, "Do you think that you will be able to lift your fingers on me? Fat chance!"

    Ji Yuan was startled when the mysterious maiden split into several images in front of him.

    Isn''t this the highest level of my Three-in-One Reflex?

    The Three-in-One Reflex is one of the ten supreme cultivation profound arts from his Divine Heart Recite and Ji Yuan had recognized it to be so.

    While he has not yet mastered it to the highest level yet but he had recognized it and knew how to counter it with his Divine Sense Revtion, Awakened Seventh Sense and Spirit Perceptions. These three cultivation profound arts are also from the Divine Heart Recite.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had caught hold of the mysterious maiden''s right boob, causing her to gasp with great shock and disbelief when Ji Yuan speed had suddenly increased tremendously.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "My reflexes are better than all my beloved maidens supposed to be, especially when my immortal spirit animus is mustered. Haha¡­"

    The mysterious maiden''s shock did not end there after she had kicked Ji Yuan away from her, cracking his golden body once more; Ji Yuan ignored his agonizing pain as he snatched away her veil, after all this was a fake opening that he had created.

    He had not expected that his feint would work so well. Although this mysterious maiden had great profound strength but her moves were petty amateur.

    But he was suddenly gasping with shock because her face was a face that he had not seen before but was also an embodiment of great beauty.

    Perhaps, great beauty was an underestimation because her beauty was indescribable; his only thought was that she is really extremely beautiful and that she is a goddess that can only appeared in a dream because her extreme beauty is matched by innocent looking eyes that further enhance her already enticing extreme beauty.

    Indeed Ji Yuan had never seen such an innocent looking face before and it was as though she had never been tainted by the corruption of the world before.

    He was looking at a primeval beauty that he had not known was possible.

    Before that he had thought that Xiang Li and Yun Chi were already very beautiful but it seemed that this dream had shown him that was not the case.

    It is said that imagination has no peak.

    And now Ji Yuan finally believes it.

    He could not resist rubbing his fingers against her flushed cheeks to see if she was real and he did feel her hot flush underneath her cheeks but deep inside his heart, he knows that she is only his imagination.

    It is said that if a man banged enough beautiful maidens then he would be able to imagine someone beautiful in his heart.

    Don''t tell me that I have reached such a peak? Haha¡­

    However his thoughts ended here because the mysterious maiden had suddenly disyed her profound aura and he was suddenly flung to the far end of the hall and crashed with a thunderous impact.

    When profound aura was formed, there will be an inertia barrier that will make touching almost impossible unless the opponent had the profound strength to breach it.

    Right now, the profound aura of the mysterious maiden had reached an insane power level and was like a zing sun that lit the entire golden hall and it was more golden than the lights of the golden hall itself.

    Ji Yuan coughed out a bout of golden blood and he was smiling bitterly; now this mysterious maiden is also a power cultivator. This dream is getting more and more ridiculous. How can a cultivator be an all-rounder? Don''t tell me that next she will be a sword energy cultivator too?

    Because his dream has decided that it has enough and decides that he cannot touch this mysterious maiden anymore.

    The mysterious great mistress was visible upset as evidenced by her starry eyes that seemed to be able to disy her emotions as she eximed with angry eyes, "Enough is enough already."

    This further convinced Ji Yuan that it was only a dream because only in a dream can one predicts the next line of the script that will follow and her words reinforced his conviction that it was a dream.

    The mysterious maiden said sternly, "You''re too corruptible. I''ve given you my warning that you will surely die if you see my face. Also, how dare youy your dirty fingers on me. So don''t me this goddess for extinguishing your puny life force."

    Although Ji Yuan was trembling weakly as his golden body had received severe injuries but since this was just a dream, he was not afraid of death so he chuckled aloud. "And I want to pop your cherry."

    The mysterious great mistress trembled with shock before her eyes shed with killing intent, "You have asked for this¡­"

    "You mean I can pop your cherry?" Ji Yuan chucked painfully. "I shall not be polite then. Haha..."

    The mysterious great mistress: ¡­

    The mysterious great mistress: ¡­

    The mysterious great mistress: ¡­

 Chapter 429 Prelude To The Inner Pangu Citadel (4)

    The mysterious great mistress immediately hurled a profound attack from where she was standing at Ji Yuan.

    <o>,m Although Ji Yuan was in great agony and he had suffered severe injuries to his golden body, this did not stop him from mustering his two sword spirits on his forehands to brace himself for the attack.</o>

    He had thought of brandishing his two saint swords but on second thought, his opponent was such a stunning great beauty so how could he bring himself to really hurt her?

    Although he may die but he thought that since this is only a dream, it doesn''t really matter to him.

    The profound attack that was hurled upon Ji Yuan was an extremely formidable attack, more powerful than any of the profound attack that Ji Yuan had ever seen and was on par with his Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    This caused Ji Yuan to be startled when he suddenly realized how powerful the profound attack had expanded from her little finger gestures.

    Ji Yuan cursed bitterly: This dream is too ridiculous. She didn''t even make much of an effort and yet she can unleash such a powerful profound attack without using any divine weapons¡­

    He didn''t get to finish his thoughts when the shimmering profound attack in a form of a chromium orb had suddenly strike him and it had exploded into multiple chromium explosions that shook the entire golden hall furiously.

    When the aftermath of the shimmering profound attack had settled, Ji Yuan was still standing firmly on the ground. However his arms were trembling with the afterglow of his two sword spirits that had absorbed the chromium orb.

    This time the mysterious great mistress was looking quite startled, "You can actually take a blow of my profound attack?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Of course. I am the MC of this dream after all."

    The mysterious great mistress smiled wryly as she generated another two shimmering profound orbs on her two palms. "Then how about another two."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck is this dream? She can divide her profound attack into two profound attacks?!

    Without waiting for Ji Yuan to reply her, she had hurled the two shimmering chromium orbs against Ji Yuan.

    Wisppppp!!!

    Immediately there were several chromium explosions as Ji Yuan was struck by the high velocity chromium orbs and this time he was sent flying back as he crashed thunderously into a giant pir.

    Two chromium orbs were too much for even his sword spirits to tank.

    Ji Yuan was panicky; her profound attacks were too speedy that he did not even have the time to generate his own sword profound attack to negate her profound attack.

    He coughed another bout of golden blood as he felt his internal organs being crushed by the pressure of her profound attacks andnded t onto the ground.

    But in the next instant Ji Yuan was upon his feet again as he forced out a grin, "Is that all you can do? By using such a powerful profound attack, you must have used up plenty of profound energies. Now it is my turn to retaliate upon you¡­"

    The mysterious great mistress interrupted Ji Yuan with a curly smile, "I am not done yet."

    Indeed she had generated ten spinning chromium orbs with her ten fingers almost instantaneously.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This dream is too ridiculous and unrealistic!

    He almost fainted from there.

    But he is not going to back off from this fight, especially when his opponent is such an extremely beautiful maiden.

    The mysterious great mistress had hurled the ten spinning chromium orbs at him in the next instant.

    Ji Yuan was just in time to brandish his two saint swords to tank against the ten spinning orbs and also to retract his two sword spirits on his forehead; he is going for a full defense mode and he is going to need all the luck that he can muster.

    Eight powerful explosions glittered and exploded upon Ji Yuan, creating a powerful shockwave that rocked the entire golden hall.

    And another two shimmering chromium orbs were deflected back to the mysterious great mistress, startling her.

    "He can deflect my profound attacks?"

    In order to do so, Ji Yuan''s speed and profound strength must match her at equal strength.

    She quickly raised her right fingers to fling the two shimmering chromium orbs aside and it exploded near her with thunderous explosion.

    Her fingers were trembling from the counter attack but she quickly withdrew her fingers to her back to hide her weakness while mocking Ji Yuan, "Is this the best that you can do? Or are you dead already?"

    But she knows that Ji Yuan is not dead yet because she has preserved a fragment of his soul with Xiang Li; he can only suffer near death experiences but won''t die from her relentless profound attacks. After all she has only one aim and that is to force him to submit to her will by dispelling his masculine profound pill.

    She was expecting Ji Yuan to be ttened on the ground because she knows her profound strength only too well.

    But Ji Yuan was only on his knees and Xiang Li was also kneeling next to him and she was whispering to him gently, "Big Brother, are you¡­alright?"

    Ji Yuan was trembling all over as he held Xiang Li gently onto his arm, "Xiang Li, you have remembered your¡­big brother?"

    Xiang Li nodded with brimming tears, "Xiang Li¡­will never forget Big Brother."

    Ji Yuan was touched but he quickly put his hand on her back, "Are you hurt? You¡­protect me from thest two profound attacks. Don''t ever do this again. I don''t want anything to happen to you even if this is a just a dream."

    It pained him greatly when he felt the smoldering burns that were on Xiang Li''s back...

    Xiang Li muttered, "Big¡­brother¡­"

    The mysterious great mistress was greatly startled: Xiang Li has managed to wrestle herself from my mind control? She had thought that it was impossible for Xiang Li to regain her free will because¡­

    "Is that the best that you can do?!" Ji Yuan interrupted her thoughts as he shouted aloud, struggling to stand firm with his trembling body.

    The mysterious great mistress hummed with great amusement, "In your present condition, what can you do now?"

    Ji Yuan hummed back with trembling voice, "Don''t bet on your cherry too soon."

 Chapter 430 Prelude To The Inner Pangu Citadel (5)

    The mysterious great mistress was now visibly upset as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan while Ji Yuan was thinking that he was in his dreams and he was now looking at the most beautiful pair of golden eyes that he had ever seen.

    She was literally teething with great rage when she recalled that Ji Yuan had rudely grabbed her boobs tightly earlier, seen her true face by unmasking her and now he was mouthing crudely that he wanted to pop her cherry.

    Therefore she raised her finger gesture in a show of profound might as a powerful profound aura burst out from her as her killing intent filled in her deep golden eyes.

    She gasped with soft teething rage, "I''m not going to purify you anymore but I will purify your everything from this existence."

    But Ji Yuanughed as he coughed weakly as he endured his painful injuries, "My pleasure to be served by such a wondrous maiden!"

    He had no idea that this was not a mere dream.

    "This great goddess of goddesses here will not endure your punitive remarks anymore!" The mysterious great mistress answered word by word in an extremely cold manner.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li had suddenly grabbed Ji Yuan by his arm, "Big Brother, please don''t provoke her anymore. You don''t know who you are dealing with and you are not the MC of your dreams."

    Ji Yuan smiled gently as he shrugged off his shoulder, "This is my dream. Of course I''m the MC. If I''m not the MC then she is?"

    Xiang Li nodded with watery eyes, "She is."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, which side are you really on¡­" Ji Yuan muttered weakly.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan grasped when the mysterious great mistress had shed in front of him as she raised her fingers to deliver an attack upon him.

    He instinctively raised his two swords up to deflect her attack as he shouted, "Wait, don''t do it. My divine swords are saint-step divine swords. Be careful of your fingers¡­"

    But to his utter surprised, not only were her fingers unharmed but she had also parried through his raised divine swords and had also sent him to topple t on the ground.

    At the same time she had also pushed Xiang Li out of the way as she said coldly to Xiang Li, "This impure man is hopeless."

    Before Ji Yuan knew what was happening, she had her foot on his back. Try as hard as he could, he could not break free of the profound force that was on him.

    This caused Ji Yuan to mutter as he turned his head to her with disbelief at her profound power, "This is not real, right? I am a great saint after all."

    The mysterious great mistress hummed coldly, "This is all too real and you will be dead soon."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly smiling, "Yes, it is indeed all too real. The view is really good here. Nice cherry."

    All of a sudden the mysterious great mistress was flushing lightly when she noticed that Ji Yuan''s eyes were appreciating from below her.

    She grasped with a sudden shock as she quickly took a step backward in an embarrassing manner.

    Just as she was rposing her thoughts, Ji Yuan had suddenly shed to her, grabbed her slender waist and had nted a kiss on her lips with an impish smile.

    The mysterious great mistress waspletely stunned by Ji Yuan''s actions.

    Aplex look of confusing emotions had suddenly overtaken her all of a sudden; first Ji Yuan had unveiled her, insulted her and her modesty and now even her first kiss was taken away by him¡­

    She is the Great Beyond Goddess, the goddess of goddesses and yet today, she was ''humiliated'' by the densest person that she had ever seen who stubbornly believed that he was the MC of this ''dream'' of his and hepletely refused to yield even in his dreams.

    Even Xiang Li was gasping with great shock as she covered her mouth, "Big Brother, you don''t know what you''re doing¡­you''re dead this time¡­"

    Just as Xiang Li really thought that Ji Yuan was dead for sure, the Great Beyond Goddess had merely struck Ji Yuan on his chest to push him away and it was not with great force but merely enough force to push him away.

    And the Great Beyond Goddess merely said to Xiang Li with a soft countenance, "Do not say a word out." And she had simply vanished in the next instant.<sub> </sub>

    When Ji Yuan had awakened, he was aching with pain all over and he was blinking his eyes; all the maidens (Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Yun Chi) were surrounding him warmly and excitingly.

    And that included Mo Bei who was looking at him with a perplexed look.

    Ling Feiyue was the first to say, "Ji Yuan, you''ve finally opened your eyes. Do you know that you''ve us all so worried about you?"

    Shui Xisi was cursing coldly, "Don''t let me catch the cultivator that ambush you."

    Yun Chi stared at Ji Yuan for an instant before she said, "Weird. Who can be it? So there is someone as strong as you who is around here?"

    Ji Yuan was a little bewildered, "What do you mean? Of course I am the strongest." But he quickly added silently: of course other than beside you.

    Yu Jingjing was looking at Ji Yuan with a sentimental look, "There are so many top cultivators in this ce. We ought to be more careful. We shouldn''t have left Ji Yuan outside the hall. This is all our fault¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he turned to look at Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue, "What is going on here?"

    Little Princess smiled weakly at him, "My lord, don''t you remember? You''ve been unconscious for three days now. The gates of the Inner Pangu Citadel is now opened."

    Ji Yuan gasped aloud, "What?! I''ve been unconscious for three days? IMPOSSIBLE!"

    But all of a sudden he had coughed out a mouthful of blood as he felt throbbing pain in his chest.

    Bai Qianfeng said with exasperation, "When we had found you, you were almost dead. It was only when Xiang Li and Anyang had called us to your attention that we were able to find you in the nick of time to attend to your injuries."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Mo Bei was shaking his head, "You know what. If only I was with you, this shouldn''t have happened at all."

    Ji Yuan had a sudden throbbing headache now; he had only remembered that he just had a most beautiful dream but when he had woke up, he was suddenly covered with injuries?

    Yun Chi said with a perplexed look, "Weird, where is Xiang Li? She refuses to tell us who the assant is."

    Feng Minyue said with a weak smile, "If Ji Yuan don''t want to share who is the one that had injured him, let''s not forced him."

    All the other maidens were suddenly nodding silently; they all knew that Ji Yuan had his manly pride. Naturally he would not want to share his humiliation with the others and that was why Xiang Li had refused to share with them who the assant was. Ji Yuan must have forbidden her to say who the assant was since he was her master.

    Little Princess winked at Ji Yuan, "I''m actually not worried for Ji Yuan. I am more worried for his assant who has clearly offended our lord here. Am I right, everyone?"

    Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Yu Jingjing wereughing jovially now, "That''s right!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes for a moment as he had not yet clear his head about what was going on around here before he answered, "Yeah right¡­"

    Mo Bei interrupted them, "Now that Ji Yuan is up, let''s hurry into the final leg of the trial. We don''t want to lose to the other cultivators."

    Ling Feiyue hummed, "Senior Mo, if you''re in a hurry why don''t you go first instead?"

    Mo Beiughed weakly as he patted Ji Yuan, "Someone got to take care of Ji Yuan, am I right? Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan stared at Mo Bei, "I don''t need a man to take care of me."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

 Chapter 431 To The Inner Pangu Citadel

    The inner sanctuary of the Inner Pangu Citadel was finally opened now; the golden portal of the entrance was now beaming brightly and anyone with a Pangu Key was able to pass through.

    Thousands of cultivators were now pouring into the golden portal, into the Inner Pangu Citadel now.

    This however did not stop those who never got the Pangu Key from trying and they were left with agonizing pain and even death.

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he looked at the dozens of dead cultivators and the severely wounded cultivators that were agonizing on the ground.

    He could only mutter, "Dudes, just go and take the trial. There is still time. After all, I''ve a senior here who has failed over thirty times."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei muttered weakly, "It is thirty times and not over thirty times. Junior, this is too disrespectful."

    Ji Yuanughed it off, "Senior, failure is the mother of all sesses!"

    The maidens behind Ji Yuan and Mo Bei chuckled softly when they had overheard their conversations.

    Although Ji Yuan had a jovial countenance but he was struggling with agonizing pain.

    He growled silently as he asked Xiang Li in his soul sea, "Xiang Li, which of the maidens beat me up like this?"

    Ji Yuan had suspected that he was beaten up by the maidens in his group so that he could behave for the next three days until the opening of the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    Xiang Li said weakly, "Big Brother, it is not that I didn''t want to tell you but I can''t."

    Once more Ji Yuan growled silently, "Xiang Li, you are supposed to be on my side and not the maidens'' side."

    This convinced Ji Yuan that he had been beaten up secretly by the maidens, probably using various drugs or tricks.

    However he was in a total nk how such a thing would happen to him.

    So he could only muster his courage to say silently, "The same trick won''t work on me again. At most, I won''t let anyone of you touch me."

    But he quickly changed his mind, "This is not the same when if I were touching you."

    To alleviate his pains, he began to recall his vivid dreams that he had about the sensual maiden; this dream was all too real. He could remember her all too clearly and the kiss that he had with her. Even her slender waist when he had held her felt all too real.

    He thought, "Precisely she is too perfect, it is unreal. No one will dress the way she is. Moreover, it is usually normal to be helpless in a dream."<sub> </sub>

    "Anyang, why are you so quiet?" Ji Yuan began to turn his attention to Fairy Anyang in his soul sea.

    Fairy Anyang began to smile weakly, "Nothing."

    Xiang Li had warned her not to say a word to Ji Yuan on what had happened. The truth was that Fairy Anyang had no memories on what had happened. But she knew that something had happened and had taken possession of her will three days ago.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan received a jolt as he recalled that he had previously received a jolt in his body so he thought, "I''ve already suspected that it may be a result of the consequences of using my immortal spirit animus. Is it because I''ve gone beyond my limitations and is suffering a bacsh?"

    With a shrug of his shoulder, Ji Yuan began to walk into the golden portal as he decided that it was pointless to think too much about it anyway.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, the Great Beyond Goddess was quietly watching Ji Yuan.

    Through the connection with Xiang Li, the Great Beyond Goddess was able to appear in this spatial space and she was invisible to all the cultivators.

    She was trembling lightly as she watched Ji Yuan as she recalled all the outrages that Ji Yuan hadmitted against her.

    She was constantly thinking of removing Ji Yuan from his very existence or she would remove Xiang Li from him.

    But in the end, she failed to act upon her willful notions.

    Eventually she muttered silently, "I''m a gracious great goddess of goddesses. Very well, I will forgive you this once for your transgression. This will be yourst transgression against me."

    As she said that, there was a flush on her porcin countenance.

    But she was quickly smiling: Although this great goddess of goddesses is gracious but I didn''t say that I won''t punish you. In fact, I''ve nned a little surprise for all of you here.

    Using her profound powers, she had quietly interfered with the uing trials inside the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    This was all too easy for her to aplish without anyone knowing.

    And the key objective of her interferences was of course Ji Yuan.

    None of the thousands of cultivators know what was lying in store for them. If they know then they would all be in great shock!

    That was because the wrath of the Great Beyond Goddess had all been attributed to Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 432 Cultivation Test (1)

    After entering though the golden portal, Ji Yuan and his group found themselves in another citadel hall.

    This citadel hall was imposing and had manyrge pirs; as a matter of fact, it was big enough to amodate the thousands of cultivators that were presented here and spacious enough for many more.

    Ji Yuan made a slow frown as he noticed that the thousands of cultivators were not looking at his group; he was quite ustomed to attract the looks from the many maidens but this time round, many of the cultivators that were in front of them were all looking tense.

    It seemed to him that the trial mission for this level was not going to be easy!

    Feng Minyue took a nce at Ji Yuan before saying slowly to the group, "The upper level of the trial is the most difficult. All the cultivators from the numerous celestial fraternities will be taking the same trial from this point onward. Those who can reach the 7th level and thest level are among the strongest cultivators."

    Yun Chi gave a slow smile when she had heard Feng Minyue but said nothing. Instead, she rubbed her belly tofort her unborn daughter as she whispered silently to her: do not be afraid my precious. Your mum will protect you.

    The rest of the maidens, including Mo Bei were looking uneasy though since they could see the tense atmosphere in the air from the thousands of cultivators and also because they had no idea what the nature of the uing trial would be.

    Shui Xisi tried tofort the group, "What is there to be anxious about? We will be fine here."

    Ling Feiyue returned a faint smile before she pointed at Ji Yuan, "I am not anxious. I am just worried about Ji Yuan here who is injured."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Not to worry. I can manage just fine¡­"

    "He won''t die." Yun Chi chuckled all of a sudden. "He is too thick skin to die anyway."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly, "That''s true."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Qianfeng, even you''re poking fun at me¡­

    Mo Bei interrupted, "Let''s take a look at the ck stele in front of us to check the nature of the trial first instead of staying here. We''re blocking the rest."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. What so difficult about the trial anyway? I can pass them all with flying colors. Unless of course, the trial is created to oppose me specifically which is impossible. Hahaha."

    Everyone began to chuckle softly as they nodded at the same time.

    Little Princess touched Ji Yuan''s fingers lightly before she smiled softly, "I won''t let you die. I will watch out for you."

    Ji Yuan was about to answer her that he would not have any incidents when Yu Jingjing had suddenly mustered the courage to walk to him to say, "I will keep an eye for you as well."

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes before she sighed helplessly to herself: I should have just shared Ji Yuan with Sister Qianxue if I know Ji Yuan is such a romantic cultivator.

    But she quickly returned her attention to Ji Yuan and was looking tenderly at him.

    Ling Feiyue and the rest of the maidens were all looking at Ji Yuan at the same time; they were all determined to help Ji Yuan ovee this trial no matter what.

    After all, he had helped them to reach this level so far. Without him, they may not have reached this level yet or would have wasted a lot of time in the lower levels. As a matter of fact, they were early and had to wait for the 7th level of the trial to be opened.

    Ji Yuan raised his voice as he marched forward with a jovial smile, "We''vee and we''ll conquer."

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was now staring nkly at the ck stele in front of him and he had a bewildered look.

    The maidens in his group and Mo Bei were all staring nkly at the same time too.<sub> </sub>

    Around them were thousands of cultivators who were all muttering softly and many of them were just as bewildered.

    Ji Yuan took a look at the shining gate that was at the end of the hallway which was filled with cultivators moving in a slow manner toward the gate; none of them were showing any enthusiasm as well.

    Ji Yuan began to shiver a little, breaking into cold sweat as he muttered to his group, "Cultivation Examinations¡­someone please kill me now."

    Mo Bei stroked his beard and chuckled, "What is so difficult about a cultivation examination? We are all saints and saintesses here."

    Yun Chi was smiling, "That is right."

    Shui Xisi looked a little nervous, "I can''t believe this."

    Yu Jingjing turned to look at Ji Yuan with a smile, "At least this isn''t abat trial. Ji Yuan will be alright and no harm will befall him."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "This is worse than abat trial for sure."

    Feng Minyue smiled, "What do you mean? Are you nervous?"

    Ji Yuan disyed an ugly look, "You got to be kidding me. I didn''t take any cultivation exams for hundreds of years. How am I supposed to recall my cultivation practice?"

    Little Princess smiled weakly as she rolled her eyes, "Do you mean that your third rate celestial sect don''t even have a proper cultivation examination in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan: Bingo¡­

    Mo Beiughed aloud, "This won''t be too difficult. Our cultivation knowledge is like an inherent thing inside of us by now. There''s nothing to be anxious about. Lucky me, I''ve always kept my cultivation knowledge up to date. The Mo n has an extensive library for me to do research during my free time as well."

    Then he sarcastically looked at Ji Yuan as he patted him on his shoulder, "So junior, what have you been doing during your free time? Reciting poems or chasing skirts? Surely you''re not a good-for-nothing cultivator, am I right? Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue was now smiling weakly and she was exchanging nervous nces with the other maidens.

    Mo Bei was suddenly aware that there was an uneasy air that wasing from the other maidens so he asked curiously, "What is wrong?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Do you think I''m the only good-for-nothing cultivator in this group who wastes away my free time?"

    Ling Feiyue began to flush shyly as she stammered, "I''m the heiress to my celestial n. It isn''t that important to pass any cultivation tests. I pass anyway even if I do not take it."

    Shui Xisi blinked her eyes, "Do I need to know anything about cultivation practice when I am a golden celestial at the age of 13?"

    Bai Qianfeng was also returning a bewildered look, "Don''t look at me like this. You know who I am."

    Little Princess shook her head, "Just don''t ask me anything about talismans and concocting pills, I''m weak in these areas."

    Ji Yuan lifted a hopeful look at Little Princess, "That is great. At least you know the rest."

    Little Princess smiled weakly, "Also don''t ask me about meridian channels, cultivation energies knowledge, soul sea, spirit entities, metallurgy, cultivation histories and others."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "And others? Exactly what do you know?"

    Little Princess chuckled softly, "I only know how to make my lord happy now. Surely you know love will make a person dumb."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 433 Cultivation Test (2)

    The numerous cultivators that were presented in the testing hall were all muttering uneasily among themselves.

    "Darn it. What if the test is to ask me to concoct a pill? That will be too time consuming and the rates of failure will be too high¡­"

    "What kind of cultivation examination will we be facing. This is too nerve racking¡­"

    "I''ve actually regretted stepping into this hall but this is the only trial¡­"

    "I didn''t draw a talisman for a very long time¡­"

    "Usually I leave it to the lesser cultivators in my sect to do all these uninteresting things¡­"

    "We are all lofty cultivators here and are only interested to elevate our cultivation strength. We don''t really research about cultivation practices that do not benefit us¡­"

    "My celestial sect specializes in poison arts. Hopefully this will be a question on poisons¡­"

    "The fail rate for this trial will be too high¡­"

    Ji Yuan shifted ufortably when he had overheard the cultivators; these cultivators were voicing out all his inner nightmares!

    They were all in a spacious hall now and everyone was looking around for any clues to the next trial that would take ce very soon.

    But saved for the thousands of cultivators who were looking tensely at one another and those that were stilling through the trial gate, there was no sight of any trial.

    Moreover, there was also no other exits to be seen in this spacious hall.

    All of a sudden there was a burst of light as an old spirit entity appeared at the end of the hall.

    Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators were gasping softly; their divine sense had picked an immense power level from this old spirit entity and he was an 8th rank spirit entity. Therefore he was also an immortal spirit entity!

    Only Yun Chi gave a disdainful look as she curled a smile while muttering, "What is the fuss about?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly as she took a nce at Yun Chi.

    She had agreed to be her apprentice quite reluctantly and she knew her true identity as the Death God Mingwang. But for now everyone just knows her as the Smiling Goddess Yun Chi.

    The old spirit entity waved his hand and thousands of rows of tables appeared in the hall, "Please be seated in front of the table. You shall all take your cultivation test right now."

    A cultivator stammered out to interrupt, "What if we fail the test? What will happen to us?"

    Immediately there were hundreds of loud voices echoing the thoughts of this cultivator; none of them had wanted to die for failing a cultivation test!

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly to himself; actually he wanted to ask the same very question but he was a little slow.

    So heughed weakly, "These cowards. It is only a test."

    In front of Feng Minyue and the other maidens, he ought to behave more manly than the other cultivators!

    Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue were sighing softly at how easy Ji Yuan seemed to have taken things. The trials had not been very easy to them so far and it was mostly due to Ji Yuan that that they had made it so far ahead.

    But unknown to them, Ji Yuan was shaking with dread at the prospect of taking a cultivation test to test his cultivation knowledge.

    The old immortal spirit entity smiled wryly as his old voice croaked, "Not to worry. This test won''t kill you. You can take the test as many times as you wish until you are able to pass."

    There were a sudden relief in the countenances of many of the cultivators, including Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing.

    Mo Bei shrugged his shoulders, ""These cowards. It is only a test."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan began to frown, "Senior, why are you copying me?"

    Mo Beiughed, "Did I? Hohoho."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The old immortal spirit entity said, "Please be seated as I exin the test."

    Many of the cultivators nodded as they walked to find an empty table to seat themselves, the old immortal spirit entity continued. "On your table is a test paper with a hundred questions that will test you on your cultivation knowledge. It is a multiple choice question of 4¡­"

    Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators were all roaring with loudughter now.

    Multiple choice questions?! This is too easy!

    The immortal spirit entity added, "You will be given a day toplete the trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan and the thousands of cultivators were allughing nonstop now; 1 day to finish the test?! It is too long! They can even finish it in one hour!

    Technically it will be good easy to score 25 points and with some basic cultivation knowledge, they will be able to score 50 points to pass the trial!

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Haha, this is way too easy than I''ve thought¡­"

    "All of you have to score 100 points to pass this trial." The immortal spirit entity curled a wicked smile.

    When he had said that, many of the jaws of the cultivators began to drop; they had to score a perfect score in order to pass this trial?!

    Ji Yuan was blinking his golden eyes nonstop as he looked at his group panicky, "Erm, I didn''t hear it wrongly, am I right?"

    Mo Beiughed, "No, you didn''t. Hahaha."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I''ve never have a perfect score before."

    Ling Feiyue was also smiling weakly, "I always have a perfect score even when I didn''t answer a single question and my celestial teachers will often praise me how good I am."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He looked at Ling Feiyue with exasperation, "That old immortal spirit entity isn''t your celestial teacher¡­"

    "I know." Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "That is why I am worried now."

    Ji Yuan lifted his hand to face-palmed himself, "This hero here is gonna to fail his trial for sure now."

    Mo Bei patted him with a smile, "Perhaps, you''re not the hero but actually I am the one."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 434 Cultivation Test (3)

    As Ji Yuan seated himself, the old immortal spirit entity raised his old voice to warn sternly, "You can only make your choice of the answer ONLY ONCE by tapping on it. And no cheating! Anyone who cheats or exchanges their answers will fail immediately and be sent to the limbo until the end of the trial!"

    The old immortal spirit entity added, "Those who are stilling through the hall, you''ve the choice of taking the test now or wait at the portal. Those who are able to pass are able to enter the gate that is behind me to the next level of the inner sanctuary¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "That old immortal spirit entity is going to repeat himself every time a cultivatores through the gate. I''ve better focus on the test instead."

    He quickly opened the first page of the cultivation manual that was in front of him as he began to read the first question.

    The first question read: When facing the lightning tribtion, what are the conditions that are necessary to ovee it?

    Ji Yuan began to smile to himself.

    Haha! This is all too easy! Fancy asking me a question on the lightning tribtion?

    He quickly checked the possible multiple choice answers.

    A)    A proper preparation is the best way to ovee it.

    B)      Lots of high grade soul jewels and spirit stones.

    C)      Pray for the blessings of the heavens

    D)    A good divine sword

    E)      All of the above.

    F)      None of the above.

    G)    All is right except for one. Answer the wrong one.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he saw that there were a 5th, 6th and 7th choices!

    What?! Didn''t that old spirit says that there are only 4 choices. Howe there are 3 additional choices?!

    All the other cultivators were all frowning as well when they saw that all the questions are apanied by a 5th, a 6th and a 7th multiple choice answers.

    But Ji Yuan quicklyposed himself as he muttered to himself, "This isn''t so hard to answer after all."

    He already had an answer in his mind as he was about to choose E.

    Just as he was about to press his finger on the answer, Xiang Li panicky said in his soul sea. "Big Brother, no! The answer is A! You''ll need a proper preparation. So that is the correct answer! Luckily I am awake to help my Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Are you sure Xiang Li? Everyone knows that we need a divine sword, lots of high grade soul jewels and we need to pray for the blessings of the heavens in order to ovee the lightning tribtion¡­"

    Fairy Anyang interrupted all of a sudden, "Obviously the blessing of the heavens can''t be counted as a criteria. It is the wrong one. So you should pick G and answer that C is the wrong one.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Are the both of you sure?"

    "Of course I am sure! I am the trial spirit and I know all the answers!" Xiang Li and Anyang both answered at the same time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "But the two of you give me a different answer."

    "Trust me, Big Brother. Your Xiang Li will never lie to you!" Xiang Li proimed with a soft chuckle.

    Fairy Anyang answered with a soft sigh, "Do you think that I will lie to you?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly when he had overhead them. He took a second look at the question before he said all of a sudden, "Wait a minute. A isn''t the right one either. So Xiang Li, you''re wrong."

    Xiang Li was startled, "Big Brother, you don''t trust my answer?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "It is not that. Do you recall when I took my lightning tribtion to be a great saint? You are there with me at that time."

    Xiang Li nodded slowly, "Xiang Li remembers¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "At that time, the lightning tribtiones all of a sudden and I didn''t even have the time to prepare myself. So you can''t say a proper preparation is the best way to ovee it, am I right?"

    Xiang Li protested immediately, "But that is still the best way to handle your lightning tribtion, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "There are many stories of many cultivators who had failed even though they had prepared sufficiently. Therefore A obviously isn''t the right answer."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Then what is the right answer?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin for a while before he smiled confidently, "All is the right answer except for A of course."

    Xiang Li looked a little hurt when she had heard Ji Yuan''s answer but she asked curiously nevertheless, "Why so?"

    Ji Yuan replied, "Look here. When I was taking my lightning tribtion and whatever tribtion, the divine sword that Jiajia has given to me has always helped me in my tribtions. Therefore a divine sword is a must¡­"

    "I''ve thought it is your five leaf clovers." Xiang Li giggled all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he was reminded how he had shown Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue his five leaf clovers during their lightning tribtion together, "This is not funny."

    But he quickly said, "And you know how these cultivators have ovee their lightning tribtions? They are filthy rich and have plenty of high grade soul jewels. As for the blessing of the heavens, of course you will need it. It is in every cultivation manuals. I may not be a studious cultivator but I sure know my basic cultivation knowledge."

    Fairy Anyang smiled weakly, "I tell you that part is not necessary."

    Ji Yuan did not care to exin as he tapped on G and to cancel out A.

    Both Xiang Li and Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had a look of great satisfaction as he ovee his first question and was looking rather pleased with his answer.

    "That is an easy question to answer. Haha." He praised himself for his brilliant answer.

    p The second question shocked Ji Yuan a little: How many cycles of cultivation are required for a Sixth Realm Supremacy to ovee to the Seventh Realm Saint level?</anda>

    A)      365 Cultivation Cycles

    B)        1080 Cultivation Cycles

    C)      3600 Cultivation Cycles

    D)      9999 Cultivation Cycles.

    E)      All of the above added together.<sub> </sub>

    F)  None of the above.

    G)    All is right when added together except for one cycle. Answer the wrong one.

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes awkwardly as he muttered, "How the heck do I know? Everyone has a different cultivation cycle. The rich ones will have shorter cultivation cycles obviously. The question didn''t even mention if the cultivator is rich or poor. Also this doesn''t apply to me. I have a pledge to Jiajia and that is why I''ve forced myself to be a saint¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had said to this point, he was smiling all of a sudden; it was because this reminded him of Jiajia.

    At that time, the clock was clicking on him as he realized that a hundred years was almost up and he had gambit on a breakthrough to be a saint in order to win Jiajia''s hundred year pledge to be with him.

    And his first divine sword was given to him by Jiajia as well and the divine sword had aided him to ovee his tribtion to be a saint.

    He began to smile with fondness as he recalled the past and how he had met Jiajia again in the Emperor Hall Sect again. He didn''t think that he could find her so easily¡­

    "Big Brother, what are you doing? You''re supposed to be filling in the answers on this cultivation question." Xiang Li had suddenly interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he snapped out of his thoughts, "Can anyone of you help me for this answer?"

    "A!" Xiang Li answered proudly.

    "No, it is B! No wait, it is E!" Fairy Anyang answered nervously.

    JI Yuan: ¡­.

    "Umm, don''t tell me none of you know the answers?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "We''re not cultivators and we don''t have any cultivation practice. How do we know the cultivation cycle?"

    Fairy Anyang smiled, "Maybe we can make a lucky guess?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Or you can make the calctions? It is just a few days of calctions." Fairy Anyang added with a hopeful smile.

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to bang his head on the table.

    He muttered weakly, "Maybe I should take a look at the other questions first."

    But he was soon stumped when he saw all the questions. They were all equally impossible for him to answer or for Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang to answer.

    It was really a question of 8 choices instead of 4 because one of the questions had to tap again to get the correct answer if he chooses that.

    Ji Yuan began to roll his eyes as he began to look around him.

    He had suddenly noticed that he was not the only one that was having trouble answering the questions; many of the cultivators were sighing heavily and some was even pulling their hairs and beards nervously. As a matter of fact, many of the cultivators were now staring nking at their cultivation manuals or were looking around nervously.

    Ji Yuan hummed softly, "Why are these cultivators looking around as though they are expecting answers to be delivered to them? The old spirit entity has just warned anyone about cheating¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed that Yu Jingjing who were seated a few tables away seemed to be smiling and was tapping on her cultivation manual in a casual manner.

    Don''t tell me she knows how to answer the questions?

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin: did she sayst time that her celestial sect is in charge of a library of celestial practices and knowledge?

    Then he saw that Mo Bei, Yun Chi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were all disying a look of frustration; obviously it seemed to Ji Yuan that even immortals are having trouble handling the cultivation questions.

    Ji Yuan soon smile as he said to Xiang Li and Anyang, "I''ve got an idea. Maybe we should get Maiden Yu to help us to answer our questions."

    "No cheating." Fairy Anyang warned him.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "If we are never discovered then it is not cheating."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately enacted upon his n and saw that Little Princess was the one nearest to him and that she was also nearest to Yu Jingjing.

    He picked a small pebble as he threw it to hit Little Princess.

    Little Princess was startled as she looked up to see Ji Yuan who was looking at her.

    Then he whispered as softly as he could to Little Princess, "Tell Maiden Yu to show me her answers."

    Little Princess had a perplexed look before she nodded with a flushed look before she turned to whisper to Yu Jingjing.

    Yu Jingjing had a flustered look before she nodded lightly as she picked a pebble to write down her answers.

    After a short while, she checked her surroundings before she flickered her fingers to send the pebble flying to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he opened his fingers to catch the flying pebble.

    But before he could catch the pebble, the immortal old spirit had suddenly teleported in front of Ji Yuan to catch hold of the pebble as he roared thunderously, "What did I say?! I say no cheating!"

    Ji Yuan and Yu Jingjing began to be flustered immediately and many of the cultivators were now looking in their direction.

    The table to table of each of the cultivator was actually quite far apart and moreover the immortal spirit entity was at the other end of the hall.

    "No way¡­" Ji Yuan could only smiled bitterly when he was caught for cheating.

    The old immortal spirit entity hummed coldly as he showed Ji Yuan the pebble, "For cheating, both of you will be¡­"

    All of a sudden the old immortal spirit entity was stammering to read the answer on the pebble.

    Ji Yuan caught the answer on the pebble with his sharp eyes and on it was written, "Sorry Ji Yuan. I can''t show you my ass."

    It seemed that either Little Princess or Yu Jingjing heard wrongly and had passed Ji Yuan''s message wrongly.

    The old immortal spirit entity crushed the pebble before warning Ji Yuan, "Behave yourself."

    Ji Yuan sighed with great relief and he turned to look awkwardly at Yu Jingjing. He saw that she was greatly flustered.

    He exined silently as he rolled his eyes with great exasperation at her: No, I ask you to show me your answers, not your ass¡­"

 Chapter 435 Cultivation Test (4)

    The cultivation test was much harder than anyone had thought.

    Fully a day had passed and many of the cultivators could barely cover even half of the 100 questions.

    Ji Yuan had covered more than half of the questions because he had skipped many of the questions or he was making a wild guess at the questions.

    When the old immortal spirit entity dered it was now time up, the scores of the cultivators were shing in front of them.

    Ji Yuan was quite stunned to see that he had scored 0 for the cultivation test.

    What the heck?!

    He was not the only 0 warriors here and quite a few of the cultivators had scored 0s as well.

    Ji Yuan was half-expecting Mo Bei to pass the test but he wasughing out loud when he saw that Mo Bei had scored only 5 points.

    Mo Bei had a silly look on his face but as he stared in Ji Yuan''s direction, he muttered. "Better than you, a zero."

    Yun Chi had scored 60 and she was cursing softly.

    Ling Feiyue had a 30.

    Little Princess scored 25.

    Shui Xisi scored 10 points.

    Bai Qianfeng scored 64.

    Feng Minyue scored 82.

    But the most shocking was Yu Jingjing who scored 99 and she was short of 1 point to pass the trial.

    Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators were dumbfounded by Yu Jingjing''s stunning result and they were wondering how she managed to do it.

    Some of the questions like array formations required a long and time-consuming calction in order to deduct the answer.

    As for Ji Yuan because he was never even good in any arrays, he just put a random answer.

    The old immortal spirit entity was smiling, "It seems that none of you is able to pass this test. Don''t worry. You can have unlimited tries. It is just a matter of time for the questions will still be the same."

    Many of the cultivators know that the old immortal spirit entity was right. But the problem was that they did not even know if they had answered correctly and even the right answer that they had put may even be a lucky guess.

    "You will all be given 1 hour break before your cultivation test will resume again."

    Ji Yuan and his group quickly gathered together, gathering around Yu Jingjing who was looking awkwardly as they asked her:

    "Jingjing, how did you manage to get 99?"

    "I don''t even know how to answer many of the questions¡­"

    "I have put a random answer¡­"

    "Can you share with us your answers?"

    Ji Yuan was also about to ask Yu Jingjing a couple of questions too when he suddenly saw that their group was being approached by hundreds of cultivators in all directions.

    He was immediately frowning for he knew that they were trying to approach Yu Jingjing to obtain the cultivation answers.

    The closest cultivator had immediately introduced himself, "I''m Great Saint Zhang Yang and I will like to befriend you¡­"

    Another cultivator nearby quickly raised his voice to cut in, "I am Great Saint Jiang Qi from the Eastern Ocean Fraternity. I will like to befriend¡­"

    As he introduced himself, dozens of cultivators were all hastily introducing themselves as well and quickened their steps toward Ji Yuan''s group.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan unsheathed both his immortal swords and thrust it in front of him as he rudely warned, "Back off or face the wrath of my divine swords!"

    All the cultivators were startled when they saw the pair of divine swords that were in front of them; this was a pair of immortal-step divine swords and was extremely sought after!

    Naturally in order to have even one immortal-step divine sword, the cultivator that owned them need to be a powerful figure in order not to lose these immortal swords as well. Moreover he must also be someone with a considerable background and that he should also be someone who is filthy rich and have other wondrous profound treasures as well.

    And so naturally Ji Yuan was not someone that they could easily offend.

    This caused them all to halt in their steps.

    Ji Yuan continued as he worded sternly to them, "This maiden here is my consort. Whoever is thinking of talking to her is the same as greening me. And don''t ever think of cooking an excuse of befriending me because I don''t need any friends. Anyone who takes a step more in my direction will have to face my wrath. Got it?"

    All the cultivators were stunned at how unfriendly Ji Yuan was.

    Some were even muttering, "Is he serious about fighting us all?"<sub> </sub>

    But none of them dared to approach a single step and many of the cultivators were quickly backing off for they could see that Ji Yuan meant business and that his group was not weak either.

    Yu Jingjing was flushing shyly as she averted her eyes while thinking, "Ji Yuan has acknowledged me as his consort in front of so many others¡­"

    As Ji Yuan disyed more frowns, more and more cultivators were panicking moving away as they all thought that he may be making a move against him.

    Finally when all the cultivators had dispersed, Ji Yuan was able to turn his attention back to his group as he asked Yu Jingjing, "Jingjing, you''re impressive. Haha. How did you manage to answer so many of the questions?"

    Shui Xisi could not resist a soft exasperation as she looked at Yu Jingjing, "That''s right. These questions are impossible to score a perfect 100. I don''t believe that anyone can but I think there is only one person that can and that is you."

    Yu Jingjing replied humbly, "I didn''t answer all the questions correctly."

    Feng Minyue smiled, "I am really curious which question that has stumped you is?"

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "It is a question on a celestial array. I am afraid that it is a little hard for me."

    Yun Chi smiled all of a sudden, "Do you mean question 69? What did you answer?"

    Yu Jingjing sighed softly, "I am unsure if it is E or F. We have to add all the profound changes together or to eliminate one of the four choices. So it can be A, B, C or D. I''ve actually spent three hours on this and this may be the only wrong answer that I may have picked."

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "I have picked F and I have cancelled A. But I am unsure if this may be the right answer."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "It is definitely not E for sure. Because I am quite an expert in arrays."

    Yu Jingjing smiled weakly, "I have picked D so I am probably wrong? It may be A or B. I feel that they are equally right."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "It is not A either."

    Mo Bei roared withughter. "For a person that is a zero warrior, you really know some bold words!"

    All the other maidens were giggling too.

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is because I''ve picked F before tapping A. So I know that A is not the right answer. Remember I score a 0 for picking this. So obviously the answer is B."

    Mo Bei frowned, "Are you sure? Are you sure that you even remember the question correctly and even the answer that you have picked?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I have a good memory. In fact, I''ve a spent some time on this question so I am very sure."

    Ling Feiyue was impressed, "I didn''t know that my lord excels in arrays as well."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he recalled his conversations with Xiang Li and Anyang Xiahou¡­

    "Xiang Li, question 69 sounds like a nice position, don''t you think? Haha."

    "That''s right! Xiang Li loves this position best!" Xiang Li had replied to him.

    "Buting from you, I''m going to choose F as an answer. Haha. Who knows if this may be the right answer." Ji Yuanughed.

    "Big Brother, you''re so mean. Then I want A for the next answer. I am a A and not a F. Remember this is my turn to choose the answer!"

    Fairy Anyang was shaking her head, "The two of you are hopeless¡­"

    By the time Ji Yuan had reached his 5th question, he hadpletely given up on answering any of the cultivation questions. Rather, he had decided that between Anyang, Xiang Li and himself, they would pick one answer turn by turn.

    That was how he had remembered question 69.

    He did not even remember what the exact answer was even.

    Back to the present, Ji Yuan was grinning all of a sudden. "I''ve an idea¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted, "Don''t tell me you want to cheat again?"

    Yu Jingjing was suddenly flushing when she recalled Ji Yuan''s message¡­

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Feiyue, this isn''t cheating if you are not caught."

    Feng Minyue gasped, "This isn''t a good idea. We may all get sent to the limbo."

    Mo Bei frowned, "Your soul sea isn''t pure at all, Junior."

    Ji Yuan patted his chest as heughed, "But my heart is very pure."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

 Chapter 436 Cultivation Test (5)

    Once again the cultivation test had begun again.

    Ji Yuan was now looking sheepishly at his surroundings.

    His n was actually really very simple; Yu Jingjing would be the one that provides the answer for all of them at the same time.

    He had told his party, "Do you think that the questions will still be the same?"

    Shui Xisi had answered, "Of course it is. Didn''t that freaky old spirit says so already?"

    Ji Yuan hummed softly before he chuckled, "Then you''re too young, too simple!"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "I will be too young, too simple?! Ji Yuan, you''re really a rascal. I''m going to teach you a lesson now¡­"

    Feng Minyue interrupted, "Stop it the two of you. We''re running out of time now."

    Mo Bei growled, "We''re honorable cultivators. We shouldn''t cheat and we should depend upon our own strength to ovee the trial. Then it is much more meaningful and we can further our cultivation to a higher level¡­"

    "You can go now." Little Princes interrupted him with a wry smile. "I''m not an orthodox cultivator."

    "Yea. Please go away." Yun Chi smiled as she winked at Mo Bei.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Actually, as your Senior, I am willing to close one eye to this¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "No Senior, you''ve better go away. What we are doing is something extremely dishonorable. But lucky I am also an unorthodox cultivator so this is perfect for me."

    Shui Xisiughed, "I am not an orthodox cultivator as well."

    Feng Minyue smiled weakly, "Although I am an orthodox cultivator but what is so dishonorable about using a little stratagem in the trial?"

    "I totally agree." Yu Jingjing nodded.

    Mo Bei smiled weakly, "Actually I just want to say I will go with the majority."

    Then before anyone can say anything, Mo Bei quickly asked Ji Yuan. "So what''s the n?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly, "You shall know very soon¡­"

    As the cultivators opened the cultivation manual, many were shocked that the questions seemed a little different now. The questions were still the same but were in different order now and the multiple choice questions had changed.

    Some of the cultivators were looking a little confused now and were blinking at the questions while trying to pick the right answer.

    It was precisely what Ji Yuan had correctly deducted.

    Shui Xisi gave a soft sigh of resignation while muttering softly, "I''m too young, too simple¡­darn you Ji Yuan¡­"

    She caught Ji Yuan giving a triumphant look at her and she quickly averted her eyes, "Darn you twice Ji Yuan. I am going to screw you if I''ve the chance¡­"

    Ji Yuan was silently nodding to his party and everyone was executing ''his n."

    "His n'' was really simple; they were all looking at Yu Jingjing silently and she was tapping her fingers on her cheek or on the table to give everyone the clues.

    For answers A, B, C, D and E, she would tap her cheeks while for answers F and G, she would tap on the table.

    And if she encircled her fingers then it is a signal for her to move on to the next question.

    If anyone encircles their fingers then it would mean asking for her to repeat her questions again and she would touch her ear to remind everyone to pause in the current answers first.

    And so everyone was copying Yu Jingjing''s answers with great confidence.

    When the time was up, Yu Jingjing had scored 100 much to the amazement of the other cultivators.

    Even more amazing was that Ji Yuan, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Mo Bei had also scored 100 as well.

    The old spirit entity had an unhappy look on his face as he said, "The eight of you can proceed to the portal behind me."<sub> </sub>

    Then with a loud growl, he added. "The rest of you shall take an hour break before the next round starts."

    The rest of the cultivators were all cursing silently Ji Yuan and his group; they knew that Ji Yuan had cheated in the trial and that was actually the key to ovee the trial.

    All the cultivators were sprinting into action now as they quickly looked for the cultivators with the higher scores; they had only a hour to strategize a winning team to ovee this trial and an hour will pass fairly quickly. After all, Ji Yuan had already shown them how to do ovee this trial. The problem was to actually finding someone who was really good in their cultivation practices.

    "Can I team up with you?"

    "May I join your group?"

    "Go away! You''re a zero warrior..."

    "I demand to be leader of this group and I should im the first to enter the portal when we have ovee the trial..."

    Ji Yuan gave a triumphant look as he chuckled to his party, "See! I told you that it will work!"

    Then he looked gently at Yu Jingjing, "Jingjing, thank you!"

    Yu Jingjing returned a flushed look as she nodded light. "I am d that I am of help to my lord."

    She had felt that she was probably the weakest link in this group as she was not a skilled fighter and she was really d that she was able to contribute finally.

    As Ji Yuan and his party walked to the portals at the end of the hall to im their rewards, the invisible Great Beyond Goddess was looking a little exasperated at how easy Ji Yuan had ovee the trial that she had specifically picked because she knew that Ji Yuan would never be able to pass this cultivation test on his own; after all she knew Ji Yuan''s soul sea very well.

    This cultivation test won''t be easy for any of the cultivators either to crack either and they would mostly be struck here until the end of the trial was over.

    However she had not expected that there would be a genius cultivator in Ji Yuan''s group who actually knows most of the cultivation answers.

    Returning a hateful nce, she muttered. "We shall see again very soon."

    She was already thinking on how to screw Ji Yuan for the next trial already as she had determined that Ji Yuan was too impure and was offensive toward her in their earlier encounter.

    Such an impure man must surely be put down for the good of the cultivation world.

    Ji Yuan naturally was not aware of the things that would happen to him very soon. His thoughts were naturally on the rewards of the trial itself.

    He was already asking, "So who will be the first? The first will naturally have the best rewards."

    And he was smiling at Yu Jingjing, "Since it is due to Maiden Yu''s credit, we should let her enter the portal first."

    Ling Feiyue smiled with a light nod, "That''s right and it sounds fair. And I suggest that Ji Yuan be the second since he is the one that have thought of this idea¡­"

    "No, I disagree." Yu Jingjing had suddenly interrupted with a shy look. "I will like Ji Yuan to go first."

    Mo Bei muttered a weak protest, "This isn''t a good idea. He only has crooked ideas."

    Feng Minyue and Shui Xisi said almost at the same time, "Ji Yuan is right. This is to your credit. The first reward should go to you."

    Yu Jingjing averted her eyes, "No, I will insist on this. He is my lord and I want the very best for him."

    Ji Yuan was looking a little awkward as all the maidens were looking at him with the same thought: You''re so lucky to have Maiden Yu Jingjing.

    "Haha¡­then I shall not decline." Heughed weakly.

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "He is really such a thick skin fellow."

    Bai Qianfeng wasughing as well, "That is why he is our lord."

    Yun Chi sighed softly as she took a nce at Bai Qianfeng, "Shameless lord."

    All the other maidens were all giggling softly as they nodded in agreement.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 437 A New Profound Sword Art

    Ji Yuan naturally picked the portal to advance to the next level of the Inner Pangu Citadel and he was also the first cultivator to step into the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    He found himself in a dark spatial space that he was expecting and the old voice of the trial spirit soon thundered, "You are the first cultivator to have passed the trial and also the first cultivator to enter the Inner Pangu Citadel. Therefore your reward will be¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he interrupted, "This is nothing at all. This trial is so easy. I don''t really expect getting a good reward from this trial."

    "Ignorant mortal." The old voice of the trial spirit mocked loudly. "It isn''t because the reward isn''t good but your talent is low."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "My talent will be low?!" Ji Yuan returned a look of disbelief. "What does my talent have to do with this reward of yours?"

    The old voice of the trial smirked coldly, "That is because I will be showing you a profound sword art. It will only be shown only once. How much of this sword art that you can grasp is up to your talent."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "A sword art?"

    He was immediately excited; it was because his Major Heavens Sword had originated from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and was his sword sect secret sword art. He had always dream of obtaining a power sword art from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well.

    "Well, this better be good. I hope it isn''t inferior to my Major Heavens Sword¡­no, it has better be better than Feiyue and Qianxue sword arts or I can''t hold my head in front of them¡­no, better be better than Jiajia''s sword art. Hoho, if it is a supreme sword art then it is even better¡­Haha-"

    "It depends on your talent, cultivator." The old voice of the trial spirit interrupted him.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Of course I''ve the talent. I am a genius sword cultivator. Haha."

    Xiang Li giggled inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea. "Of course! Big Brother definitely has talent!"

    Anyang said weakly, "Wooing maidens is his only talent."

    Ji Yuan said to Anyang, "C''mon Anyang, you ought to have stronger faith in me. After all, we have divine harmonized with each other already. Surely you know how strong I am."

    Anyang smiled awkwardly, "Super strong in your addiction of your masculine pills, I can see that."

    Ji Yuan: Haha¡­

    The old voice of the trial spirit suddenly said and this returned Ji Yuan''s attention to his surroundings, "Look carefully into the light."

    There were illusions of a hundred swords flying in the light and Ji Yuan could see the profound energies linking to each of the flying swords.

    Ji Yuan instantly knew that these profound energies were like the profound energies that linked to his soul sea and teaching him how toprehend the sword stances of this new sword art.

    His eyes began to sh nonstop as the sword stances began to change very fast.<sub> </sub>

    Instantly he hadprehended his Major Heaven Sword to a higher understanding at the same time as he grasped softly, "I didn''t know it can be done in this way. No wonder my old master had told me that it is important for me to find a superior sword energy sword art in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so that I may delve deeper into the Major Heaven Sword."

    After an unknown time had passed, the light disappeared and the shadows of the sword had also faded.

    The old voice of the trial spirit smirked coldly, "I hope that you may be inspired by this sword art. However this may be a little tough since this is a sword energy sword art-"

    "What is the name of this sword art?" Ji Yuan interrupted with soft gasps. "This sword art is too amazing. Maybe it is almost on the level of the Million shes Sword Art."

    Ji Yuan was naturally referring to the Million shes Sword Art, a supreme sword art that caused a great war in the Deste Celestial Fraternity thousands of years ago.

    ? The old voice of the trial spirit answered nonchntly, "The name of this sword energy sword art is called the Sacred Swords. The sword stance that you''ve witnessed is the Thousands Sacred Swords. However it may be a long time for you to really master this sword art since this is the highest level that you can actually reach. It is up to you to create the basics and the steps to reach this unfathomable sword art."

    Ji Yuan looked impressed as he nodded, "Usually a master will divide the stances into 9 levels and set a target for their prot¨¦g¨¦s to reach the zenith of their secret sword art."

    "This is up to you to decide." Then the old voice of the trial spirit added with some sarcastic, "So which level of the Sacred Swords have you mastered?"

    Ji Yuan immediately shed his two saint-step divine swords and the after-images of hundreds of swords began to sh all around him. "I have fully mastered it naturally. This Sacred Swords is sure exhausting to use for my current cultivation strength. Thank goodness that I''ve mastered the physical embodiment form of my Major Heaven Sword or else I won''t be able to master it."

    Then all of a sudden Ji Yuan said, "Are you sure you show me everything? Because I sense that I can further condensed this sword stance even further."

    Without waiting for the trial spirit to say anything, Ji Yuan had suddenly condensed all the after-images together and there was a thunderous drift that appeared above the dark spatial space.

    Then Ji Yuan was coughing weakly as he felt all his cultivation strength withdrawing and attempting to crush in a bacsh against him.

    He thought, "I don''t have enough profound strength to disy this stance?"

    Without thinking further, he quickly summoned his immortal spirit entity to disy his profound strength to the eighth cultivation level.

    All of a sudden, the entire dark spatial space was shaking violently as a brilliant sword energy exploded through the drift in a pir of brilliant white re light, stunning Ji Yuan.

    Even the trial spirit was stunned as his old voice gasped with shock, "This is the Sacred Sword Pir¡­"

    Ji Yuan could sense the destructive profound energies that had just shed in front of him, "You old goat. So there is really another stance and yet you did not tell me¡­"

    But before Ji Yuan could scream further his displeasure, he was kicked out of the dark spatial space in a brilliant sh of light. Or rather, he had identally destroyed the dark spatial space with the sword energies that he had just created.

    The old voice of the trial spirit could be heard muttering with shock, out of ear-shot from Ji Yuan. "This Sacred Swords is actually a Supreme Sword Art but you have unlocked it as a Miracle Sword Art. This is impossible for a seventh realm cultivator¡­no wait, did he just disy his cultivation strength to the eighth level? And he has an immortal spirit entity?!"

 Chapter 438 The Shameless Sword Art

    Ji Yuan soon found himself in a golden hallway after he was forcefully kicked out of the dark spatial space.

    He was not alone as the rest of his party, including Mo Bei was all already waiting for him.

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "What takes you so long? Are you arguing with the trial spirit again?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Is this your only impression from me?"

    p "Yes!!!" Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng giggled at the same time.</anda>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He shrugged his shoulders to protest weakly, "Well, this is only your misconception¡­"

    "What is your reward? Hurry and share with us!" Shui Xisi cut in with a soft chuckle. "You suppose to have received the best reward."

    Ji Yuanughed, "So you''re impatient to know my reward already. Well, I got a profound sword art as my reward and it is also a sword energy profound sword art as well. Haha."

    Ling Feiyue giggled and tried to look a little impress, "Compare to my sect sword art, your n sword art is a little inferior so it is time for a little upgrade."

    Ji Yuan smirked with pride, "I don''t deny that my Major Heavens Sword is a little inferior to your Flying Spirit Sword Art. However my new sword art the Sacred Swords has a stance that is quite simr to your Thousand Raining Swords and it is called the Thousands Sacred Swords..."

    "Copycat!" Ling Feiyue giggled. "My sword art is very close to a supreme sword art. Quit boasting."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested, "I''ve tested it earlier. My sword art is definitely on par with your Flying Spirit Sword Art and the profound strength is also on par with ourbined sword art the Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon."

    Ling Feiyue and the other maidens were all giggling; the more Ji Yuan tried to defend his new sword art, the more the other maidens did not believe him.

    Yun Chi was rolling to and fro, "Don''t make meugh. You didn''t even have the time toprehend it, much less use it."

    Even Mo Bei wasughing loudly, "Your soul sea is too impure. Are you saying that you have a supreme sword art."

    Ji Yuan immediately nodded with great seriousness, "Thest stance of my Sacred Sword is the Sacred Sword Pir. It is definitely a supreme sword art. I''ve witnessed the profound might it is definitely a very strong profound sword art."

    Shui Xisiughed, "Then can you prove it? Show it to us then?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he said weakly, "Thisst sword stance requires a lot of my profound strength. Give me a few hours and some profound pills then I will be able to show you."

    All the maidens were giggling again;

    "Ji Yuan is only trying to trick us into giving him some of our profound pills¡­"

    "Yea, because he is too poor to afford one¡­"

    "Our lord is like a King of the Beggars when ites to shamelessness¡­"

    "I like to believe Ji Yuan but (giggle), he is always so funny (giggle)¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "Let''s give him a few months toprehend his new sword art first (giggle)¡­"

    "He is just too shameless¡­"

    Ji Yuan grumbled, "We should be on our way now."

    The maidensughed after him, "Ji Yuan is beating his hasty retreat now."

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know that his profound strength was being suppressed in the dark spatial strength earlier and that his Thousands Sacred Sword was already on par with a supreme sword art while his Sacred Sword Pir was on the level of a miracle sword art level.

    His veryst act with his Sacred Sword Pir had in fact destroyed the dark spatial space that he was trapped in earlier and he was booted out all of a sudden.

    However Ji Yuan misunderstood that the old trial spirit was the one that had kicked him out of the spatial space.

    Ling Feiyue held onto Ji Yuan''s fingers with a soft giggle, "My dear lord, I think you ought to stick to the sword technique that we have invented together. That is powerful enough and you can definitely use it more than 3 times now, rather than just one time."

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile; it was because Ling Feiyue was right. For a sword art that exhausted all his profound strength and even exhausted his eighth realm cultivation profound strength, this was a double edged sword. Moreover it did seem to him that his Supreme Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon was actually stronger than the Thousands Sacred Sword¡­

    Heughed weakly, "Give me a few more months to understand my new sword art. I''m sure it is a much superior sword art than my Major Heavens Sword."

    Feng Minyue said gently to him, "One day you will find a supreme sword art. But it isn''t necessary for you. All sword arts have their strength and weakness. Your current sword arts are already quite powerful."

    "That''s right." Yu Jingjing also tried to put in a gentle word for Ji Yuan. She looked a little guilty as she realized that she was mocking at Ji Yuan as well. "Ji Yuan, I''m sorry. I believe in your sword art¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Hah! A supreme sword art is useless in the eyes of the immortals. You will need a miracle sword art and a miracle in order to defeat an immortal."

    Ji Yuanughed loudly all of a sudden when he heard Yun Chi, causing all the other maidens and Mo Bei to look curiously at him.

    "What''s wrong?"

    Ji Yuan exined gleefully as he looked at Yun Chi, "I don''t need a miracle sword art to defeat an immortal. I have plenty of ways to dominate over an immortal. Say, don''t you agree with me Yun Chi?"

    Yun Chi was startled and her smiles had ceased all of a sudden; she knew that Ji Yuan was referring to that he had dominated over her even if he had no miracle sword art.

    She could only mutter weakly, "You''re too shameless¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng who knew of Yun Chi''s real identity was also lowering her head with a flushed look, "Yes, he is really too shameless¡­"

    Shui Xisi who did not understand what was going on but when she had heard that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were all calling Ji Yuan a shameless man, she could not resist adding. "I agree that he is really shameless and his new sword art should be called the Shameless Sword Art."

 Chapter 439 Choosing The Passages (1)

    Ji Yuan and his party continued along the golden hallway.

    "So what rewards did you obtain earlier?"

    Ji Yuan was asking them about their rewards as he walked with Mo Bei.

    "Well, it seems that the rewards of the seventh level trial isn''t that impressivepared to my sword art. Maybe except for that fifth rank cultivation pill that Little Princess had just obtained.

    Little Princes smiled wryly, "This profound pill is really good. It is able to treat even the most grievous injuries of the cultivator and even preserve their cultivation core intact."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "The name of your profound pill is the Wondrous Bliss Elixir. It is indeed very useful and has many uses. For example, it can also be used when a cultivator is oveing his cultivation tribtions."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he turned to Feng Minyue. "Maiden Feng, this is thest trial already, am I right?"

    Feng Minyue nodded. "Yes, this is thest trial already before we can reach the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Once we can clear it, we will receive a mark as well as a reward for oveing the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The reason why Ji Yuan had asked Feng Minyue was because she had already ovee the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth several times in the past; she was the most experienced cultivator in the group.

    Yun Chi suddenly said, "I''ve an uneasy feeling over this¡­"

    "Same here." Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden and she was looking at her surroundings keenly. "But I can''t ce a finger."

    Ji Yuanughed, "There is no need to be nervous. I am not nervous."

    Mo Bei suddenly lifted his finger, "Look. There are two passages in front of us. So which one should we take?"

    Feng Minyue looked a little startled, "There are two passage ways?"

    "What is wrong with that?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Feng Minyue blinked her eyes as she answered, "Thest two trials of the seventh level are straightforward. There is only one option all the time, never two choices."

    Yu Jingjing looked a little afraid, "But there are two options now. So which of the passage should we take?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin as he pondered, "That is indeed the most interesting question. So which of the two passages should we take?"

    All of a sudden he was frozen on the spot when he noticed that everyone was looking at him. This naturally included Mo Bei.

    He rolled his eyes before asking, "Why are the whole lot of you looking at me as though as if I know which of the two passages to take?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled gently as she shot Ji Yuan a yful wink, "You are our leader so naturally you should choose help us to decide which route we should take."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What if I am wrong?" He muttered weakly.

    "Then you will be the one taking responsibility for our mishaps." Ling Feiyue winked at him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He inhaled slowly before he turned to Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "Yun Chi, Qianfeng. What is wrong?"

    Bai Qianfeng was startled; she did not think that Ji Yuan would suddenly ask her a question.

    Yun Chi was also somewhat startled but before she could reply to Ji Yuan, he had added. "Didn''t you say that you have an uneasy feeling earlier? I didn''t forget. Haha."

    Yun Chi sighed softly; she did not think that Ji Yuan would be paying them any scant attention especially when he had just rubbed off theirments earlier.

    Bai Qianfeng disyed a shy countenance as she saw that Ji Yuan was looking at her intently before saying, "It is as though there is someone who is observing us. But I really can''t ce a finger."

    Ji Yuan nodded beforeughing, "Well, I believe in my Qianfeng."<sub> </sub>

    "You do?" Bai Qianfeng returned a curious look at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan nodded and said, "So let''s us all wait here to decide which of the two passages to take."

    Mo Bei was startled, "You are not going to pick a passage to go? Why are we waiting here for?"

    Ji Yuan replied coolly, "We are not just going to wait here but we are also going to meditate here."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Junior, we have an advantage by being the first. Don''t throw away our advantage so hastily."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Senior, why don''t we do as Ji Yuan has suggested? Even if my Sister Qianxue is here, she will also do as Ji Yuan has suggested."

    Mo Bei grumbled, "I don''t understand. He lookedpletely clueless so why should we follow his suggestion?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he admitted, "Senior, you''re so brilliant. I am indeedpletely clueless on which of the two passages should we take."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei turned to the rest of the maidens to ask, "Are you all going to do as he just suggested? He just admitted that he ispletely clueless."

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all nodding at the same time and echoed, "We will listen to Ji Yuan."

    Mo Bei was startled but he noticed that Shui Xisi did not say anything so he asked her, "It seems that among all the maidens, you are the most sensible one. I am d that you are on my side on this. It is just in foolhardy to lose our advantage-"

    "I agree with Ji Yuan." Shui Xisiughed jovially. "I was just thinking what fun things are happening in Ji Yuan''s little brain."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan called out to Shui Xisi all of a sudden. "Who are you suggesting that has a little brain?"

    Shui Xisiughed, "I am not suggesting. This is a fact. If you''re not happy about this, why don''t we have a little fight in that corridor over there? Or are you afraid?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to be angry as he shouted, "Who is afraid of who? C''mon, let''s take our fight away from the rest and I will settle my score with you!"

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to sprint off, Little Princess stopped in front of him and said coolly. "Stop it. We all know your little tricks already. The two of you are just going off to your love escapades, am I right? Have you forgotten that you have already used this trick a little too many times?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi averted her eyes, "Hmph! I''m really upset with him!"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her eyes as she heaved a soft sigh of resignation, "The two of you are really hopeless."

    Although she wasining but there was nothing much she could do against Shui Xisi for she was the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce; she was a top great saintess cultivator above her league to stop and also her senior. She had not expected that the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce to have such a personality and that she would have fallen so much in love with Ji Yuan. And moreover, she is also Jiajia''s sister.

    Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were all flushing shyly when they recalled Ji Yuan''s light touches on their bodies¡­

    Yun Chi muttered, "Ji Yuan deserved to be castrated¡­"

 Chapter 440 Choosing The Passages (2)

    Ji Yuanughed it off when Yun Chi had suggested for him to be castrated.

    "Haha. Don''t forget that I am a great saint. I can regenerate my little brother back. It is just a matter of time."

    Ling Feiyue gasped with great exasperation, "Ji Yuan, you are too crude. Don''t say anything like this?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he asked Xiang Li silently, "Xiang Li, am I crude?"

    Xiang Li giggled as she said lovingly to him, "My Big Brother is never crude!"

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou almost fainted as she muttered, "He is actually very crude."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Anyang, I am a gentleman of the sword so how can I be a crude cultivator?"

    Anyang rolled her eyes, "I don''t want to argue with you. It is all Xiang Li''s fault for tricking me to follow you. It isn''t fun to follow you at all."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Anyang, be patience! Soon Ji Yuan will be doing the fun thing again. We just need to wait."

    Anyang looked a little flush as she protested feebly, "Who says that I am waiting for that kind of fun things? I am not you. You''ve tricked me."

    "But you have never closed your eyes." Xiang Li giggled as she pointed it out.

    Anyang: ¡­

    "That''s because¡­" She panicky argued rather weakly, "I am actually trying to correct our lord''s actions. I can''t allow him to sink into depravity and someone has to save his soul sea."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I don''t need saving. Haha¡­"

    Anyang hummed coldly, "That is because you''re hopeless like your other consorts have just said."

    Naturally no one knows that Ji Yuan was also talking to Xiang Li and Anyang at the same time.

    Yu Jingjing reminded him, "Ji Yuan, you have two sentient spirit entities with you. Be careful that you do not corrupt them lest they will think that you are actually such an awful person."

    Ji Yuan patted his firm belly with a chuckle, "Don''t worry. They are sleeping in my soul sea now and can''t hear our conversations."

    Ling Feiyue heaved a soft sigh of relief, "That is good. Xiang Li is so innocent. Don''t you ever corrupt her."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; Xiang Li is more corrupted than me. Why does everyone thinks that Xiang Li is so innocent? Is it because she is a maiden? This is gender discrimination. I''m protesting against this¡­

    However he did not voice his protests aloud or else he knew that he would be floored by the maidens; he did not have so many hands to handle all of them at the same time.

    Rather, he began to seat himself down on the ground to begin meditation.

    The rest of his party did the same as well.

    As Mo Bei sat on the floor to mediate, he was also muttering. "This is so unwise. We have a 50% chance of choosing the correct passage.

    Ji Yuan was actually not really meditating but rather he was staring at the two passages with his back facing the other maidens so that the others would not see his expression.

    He was actually thinking what Maiden Feng Minyue had said to him, "There is supposed to be only one passage but why are there two now?"

    ? Time passed and two dayster, Ji Yuan was still glued to the same spot.

    This time round Mo Bei was quite irritated, "We are lucky that the other cultivators have note this way yet but it won''t be for long. Why don''t we make a move first? We have a 50% chance of choosing the correct passage anyway. Or maybe we can even split the party. Surely one of the two groups will be able to reach the second trial and evenplete it."<sub> </sub>

    But Ji Yuan simply replied, "Let''s wait a little longer."

    Mo Bei turned to the maidens in the group as he voiced his displeasure, "Can anyone of you say something?"

    Yun Chi smiled coolly as she said casually, "I''m not in any hurry."

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling too, "Either am I."

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently, "I am afraid that it is pointless to ask Ji Yuan to move his butt. He won''t listen to you or us."

    Mo Bei frowned, "Is he that stubborn?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "That is because you have never been in the same trial as Ji Yuan in the past and you don''t know him that well. Unless he can crack the trial, he simply won''t move his butt. He is really an old goat."

    This time round Ji Yuan had turned his head around as he frowned, "I am an old goat?!"

    Little Princess smiled mesmerizing; she was ever as charming as ever. "An old goat that likes to chew on tender grasses."

    The tender grasses were of course referring to the maidens.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am not that old. Some of you here are less tender than me and even older than me. Old Cows wanting to eat tender meat."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    "Shut up Ji Yuan!"

    "What did you just say Ji Yuan?!"

    "I dare you to repeat yourself Ji Yuan!"

    Immediately all the maidens have rushed forward to give Ji Yuan several kicks and ps, including the usuallyposed Yun Chi.

    Just as everyone was kicking Ji Yuan, the entire hallway seemed to be struck by an earthquake and was shaking violently now.

    Everyone was startled while Ji Yuan had stood up as he pointed at the two passages.

    The two passages seemed to be moving and finally it was merged into one passage.

    This startled everyone who had witnessed it.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he said coolly, "Just as I''ve thought. Someone has used their profound power to create an illusion. Neither one of the passages are the real one. This passage is actually the real one."

    Ling Feiyue gasped as she blinked her eyes, "Ji Yuan, how did you know this?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "Actually I did not know but I am just making a guess. Like Yun Chi and Qianfeng, I''ve sensed that someone is actually watching over us. But I can''t really ce my finger as well."

    The Natural Instinct of his Divine Heart Recite seemed to have sense a presence constantly keeping an eye on him. This weird feeling had actually intensified ever since he was beaten up in his sleep.

    He exined, "But if this illusion is created by someone then it won''tst. It is just a matter of time before the illusion array will wear off since it isn''t supported by any heavenly relic or divine swords."

    He had been using his divine sense to probe the two passages for the past 2 days and could not sense any profound fluctuations.

    Ji Yuan smiled as he said to his party, "Come. Let''s us be on the way on."

 Chapter 441 The Great Beyond Goddess (1)

    When Ji Yuan and his party had stepped through the passage which was marked by a shimmering defensive light, they were quite startled to see a beautiful statuesque veiled maiden meditating in the middle of the passage.

    This veiled maiden was stunning in appearance and had an exalted air radiating from her profound animus.

    Ji Yuan gave a most startled gasp when he recalled that he had actually dreamed of this great beauty in his dream.

    He had remembered her dazzling misty golden eyes and it was a sight that he could not easily erase from his mind. As a matter of fact, he actually had the intention to recite a poem to this dream maiden.

    This statuesque maiden was indeed the Great Beyond Goddess.

    She had been here in this ce trying to mess up with Ji Yuan''s trials. But little did she expect that Ji Yuan would actually wait up to several days and this had drained her profound strength due to the constant efforts of trying to maintain the array illusions.

    Worse, she was now caught in her actual appearance by not just Ji Yuan but also forced to appear in front of so many.

    As a matter of fact, she was feeling extremely indignant now as she was snapped out of her meditation.

    Yu Jingjing stammered, "Who is this maiden? Is she a trial spirit? Why is she blocking the passage?"

    As she spoke out, she was shivering.

    And she was not the only one.

    Mo Bei and the rest of the maidens were all shaking slightly as though a deadly fear was upon them.

    Even Yun Chi was no exception.

    The only person that was undeterred was Ji Yuan who looked more startled than afraid when he recalled her wondrous face behind her veil.

    Yun Chi was the first to speak, "Be careful, she is no ordinary cultivator. Do not approach her. She is an immortal cultivator."

    She wanted to add that she had never seen any immortal with such a powerful presence but as the others did not know her true identity, she did not echoed her thoughts out.

    Yun Chi was a true goddess and she had no fear of anyone naturally but this maiden in front of her seemed to be causing a profound fear on her. Although she could not ce a finger but she knew that this unknown cultivator was extremely dangerous.

    Everyone in the group did not need Yun Chi to warn them because they could all sense an insufferable pressure that was upon them.

    Every slight movement of this unknown cultivator''s eyes was like piercing daggers upon their hearts and they were afraid that she may make a move anytime.

    Shui Xisi stammered softly as she could feel her fingers moving nervously on the hilt of her divine sword, "Who is she? What is this tingling feeling that I am feeling?"

    She was echoing the thoughts of everyone in the group.

    Ji Yuan broke the silence as he tried to ask in a calm manner, "Maiden, we are taking our trial here. I wonder if you are the trial spirit?"

    Then Ji Yuan remembered Xiang Li and Anyang so he asked them in his soul sea, "Xiang Li and Anyang, is she a trial spirit?"

    There wasplete silence.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What Ji Yuan did not know was that while the Great Beyond Goddess was in the flesh, Xiang Li could not materialize. At the same time, because Anyang was also linked to Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, the Great Beyond Goddess was also using Anyang spiritual strength to maintain a presence in the Celestial Realm.

    A soft hum could be heard from the veiled statuesque maiden and everyone could imagine that she was making a wry smile behind her veil.

    A secondter, she spoke softly. "Ji Yuan¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Although her voice was extremely soft but it echoed clearly in everyone''s ears and they could feel the profound power of her voice.

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Wait a minute. How did you know my name? Have we ''really'' met before?"

    Mo Bei and the other maidens were all staring at Ji Yuan as they echoed an answer to Ji Yuan''s question silently: Yea, how did you know this maiden and how did you manage to offend such a powerful cultivator?

    "Ji Yuan, you are really unbelievable." The Great Beyond Goddess said sarcastically.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    What did I do?

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly rose up, "You didn''t fall into my illusional arrays causing me to waste much of my precious strength on a decadent man like you."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he muttered weakly, "I am a decadent man? What did I do to you?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess had a sh of anger in her eyes; although Ji Yuan was muttering to himself but she could hear his voice within her. After all, she had also existed within Ji Yuan''s soul sea through Xiang Li and was invisible to him.

    "What you did is unpardonable."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    What did I do that is unpardonable?

    Mo Bei pointed at Ji Yuan with trembling voice, "What did you do to her?"

    Ling Feiyue said with great exaggeration, "What did you do to her, Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "You know. I don''t even know what I did to you thest time that cause you to be offended with me."

    Ling Feiyue had a sudden flush when she recalled how Xue Qianxue and her had conspired together to check who Ji Yuan really like.

    Little Princess who by now had learnt of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue story with Ji Yuan, said weakly. "Maybe because of your nasty poem again."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Surely not?

    Or is it?

    Ji Yuan turned to the veiled statuesque maiden to ask with a most perplexed look, "Actually, what did I do?"

    To shave off his nervousness, Ji Yuan added with augh. "Haha, but you''re not Xiang Li. I surely won''t bang anyone in front of you¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess: ¡­

    That is precisely what you did.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could not continue anymore; it was because he could sense a killing malevolent that was behind directed at him and acting ordingly with his instinct as though he had sensed a threat, he had unsheathed his two divine swords.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said coldly, "Today I will cripple you andy waste to your cultivation core. You will be a mortal from this day onward¡­"

 Chapter 442 The Great Beyond Goddess (2)

    The Great Beyond Goddess had said to Ji Yuan, "You will be a mortal from this day onward and will no longer be able to cultivate."

    Ji Yuan was taken aback by the sudden warnings that stemmed from the statuesque veiled maiden; he just could not remember how he had even offended her.

    But before Ji Yuan could shoot her another question, there was a sh of forward light.

    It was Yun Chi and she had shed ahead to engage the statuesque veiled maiden.

    Yun Chi hummed coldly; she could not understand how she could be affected by any profound fear and she did not even fear the Great Demon Lord. Moreover in the Deste Realm, she was one of the three supreme immortals.

    Even if she were to walk in the midst of a hundred top level Pangu Immortals, she would also show no fear.

    As she shed forward, the statuesque veiled maiden had also shed forward.

    There was no mighty profound force to be seen and Yun Chi had suddenly found her profound strength dissipating all of a sudden as she gave a startled outcry before hopping several steps backward.

    Ji Yuan was not slow as he shed forward to catch Yun Chi before he shed his enraging eyes at the statuesque veiled maiden, "No one touches my woman and no one is allowed to hurt my woman!"

    Yun Chi returned a flush look at Ji Yuan before she said hurriedly, "Be careful. You''re not her match. We need to attack together."

    Then she shed a look at the rest of the group behind her, "We need to attack together, all of us."

    Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Yu Jingjing were all nodding with a startled expression; none of them could see clearly in that instant when the statuesque veiled maiden had attacked but they knew that they all had to attack together.

    Mo Bei was trembling as he stammered, "Yes¡­we have to attack together."

    The mysterious profound fear was affecting Mo Bei more than the others.

    Only Ji Yuan was not affected and he was now shouting angrily, "Darn you! I don''t even know you. Why don''t you show me your face first?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess answered him, "You don''t deserve to see my face. If you don''t want to be turned into a mortal, why don''t you make a wish to defeat me?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly frozen in his forward attack stance as he had a sudden realization; how did she know of my wish from Xiang Li?!

    She is trying to provoke me to use my wish?

    Ji Yuan suddenly turned to his group as he raised his voice to say, "Everyone back off! This is my battle between the two of us!"

    Ling Feiyue retorted, "Ji Yuan, we can use ourbine sword technique. Surely it will bring her down."

    Shui Xisi also responded, "There are so many of us and we are all great saints and saintesses. Do we need to fear a single immortal cultivator?"

    Feng Minyue nodded lightly but she was saying firmly, "Ji Yuan, I will fight alongside you."

    Yun Chi was shing a look at Bai Qianfeng who returned a nod; they had exchanged empathy as though they were saying that with the two of them joining hands together, they would be able to defeat this unknown immortal cultivator.

    Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were saying at the same time, "Ji Yuan, I too, will fight alongside with you!"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "This is my battle."

    Then he looked at the statuesque veiled maiden with a frown, "I remember you now. So my dream isn''t really a dream."<sub> </sub>

    The statuesque veiled maiden flickered a more intense killing malevolent air from her eyes when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan continued with a wry smile, "You really have nice soft boobs."

    The statuesque veiled maiden gasped softly when she had remembered Ji Yuan''s wicked grab on her¡­

    Yun Chi who was next to Ji Yuan and had not stepped back, shed a started look at Ji Yuan. "What did you do to her?!"

    Although her voice was soft but the rest of the group had heard her and everyone was actually echoing Yun Chi''s sentiments.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I have not only grabbed her boobs but had also kissed her."

    The Great Beyond Goddess began to tremble uncontrobly¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had shed forward and he was upon the statuesque veiled maiden; he had left behind his two divine swords to increase his speed.

    He was not worried about leaving his divine swords behind since he could muster his profound strength to summon his two divine swords at such a close proximity anyway.

    The most important was timing and speed; he had purposely taunted this unknown immortal cultivator because he had wanted to seize the initiative to attack her.

    When he sensed the chaotic fluctuations of her profound animus, even if it was only slightly, he knew that he had to take his chance now, which was now or never.

    In that very instant, Ji Yuan had raised his fingers as he struck at the statuesque veiled maiden with a thunderous impact on her chest.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were greatly startled when they had witnessed Ji Yuan''s speed; he wasughing and had a sluggish movement. They had not expected Ji Yuan to attack suddenly for he did not even reveal his profound strength in the slightest bit. When they had realized that he had moved, he had already hit his target hard!

    The reason why Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were the most startled because they had been trying to figure out how Ji Yuan managed to elude the ck Hand assassination guild in the past and had even make a counterattack; Ji Yuan had struck such a profound fear in the hearts of the ck Hand Guild that they had refused to reveal what had happened to this day. This was something that Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had been trying to learn for hundreds of years.

    The rest of the group was equally startled as they gasped softly; they too did not expect Ji Yuan to have such a quick reflex.

    To say that his reflex was quick was an under statement; it was insanely quick in that single moment!

    Even Yun Chi was quite startled because she had thought that she had seen Ji Yuan''s strength thoroughly and that he was beneath her in terms ofbat prowess. This forced her to evaluate Ji Yuan on another angle now¡­

    Ji Yuan had attacked the statuesque veiled maiden with his sword finger. In that very instant, he had decided to disy his newly acquainted sword art, the Sacred Swords and had disyed his newly acquired sword stance the Sacred Sword Pir.

    This was the only sword art that he thought may work as he had witnessed his profound power of this sword art previously. However without his eighth rank profound strength and divine swords, the profound power through his sword finger was limited to only one-tenth of its usual true potential.

    The Great Beyond Goddess received a great jolt on her chest before she smiled behind her veil, "What puny profound strength. Know this, I cannot be hurt by any cultivation practices..." In that instant, she had counter-attacked and had delivered a hard blow on Ji Yuan''s chest.

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock and with great agony as he grasped his chest; he simply could not believe that he could not evade at such a close point.

    He could only curse silently; darn it. This useless sword art took too much of my profound strength¡­

    All of a sudden the Great Beyond Goddess gasped with startled shock as her body began to sway, "This is a miracle sword art¡­"

    In the next instant, she had copsed on top of Ji Yuan who was still in disbelief that he was being beaten up by just a single strike on his chest.

    All the others in Ji Yuan group was also startled and were perplexed; everything had happened so suddenly and their eyes could not really follow what was going on.

 Chapter 443 The Great Beyond Goddess (3)

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly copsed onto Ji Yuan for two reasons; one was that Ji Yuan''s attack had dissipated her profound strength. The second reason was that she was drawing upon Ji Yuan''s meagre profound energies in his soul sea to sustain herself and when Ji Yuan had exhausted his profound strength temporary in that single instant, the Great Beyond Goddess had received a double hit.

    Just as the Great Beyond Goddess was dazzled from the attack and was on Ji Yuan, her dazed golden eyes saw Xiang Li appearing in front of her.

    She gasped, "Xiang¡­Li?"

    All of a sudden her mind was clouded as though she was trying to recall something important but could not.

    Xiang Li was not supposed to appear when she was in physical form because she was actually drawing upon Xiang Li''s strength for her own existence in this ne of existence.

    The Great Beyond Goddess suddenly looked at Xiang Li with a nk look, "Who are you?"

    Xiang Li answered delightful, "I am Xiang Li! Nice to meet a beautifuldy such as you!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess muttered with a nked look all of a sudden, "And who am I?"

    Xiang Li giggled delightfully before she pointed at Ji Yuan, "You are his ex-girlfriend."

    Ji Yuan almost choked when he had heard Xiang Li, "Xiang Li, don''t talk rubbish!"

    But Xiang Li protested immediately, "You are just having a lover''s fight."

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to protest back, the rest of the maidens had shed next to him and they had all overheard Xiang Li.

    Ling Feiyue said with great exasperation, "So she is your ex-girlfriend?!"

    Shui Xisi said unhappily, "I knew it!"

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were both taken aback; is it the true? The maiden that had attacked Ji Yuan is obviously an immortal cultivator of great frighteningbat level.

    Everyone was looking at Xiang Li for an exnation.

    Xiang Li looked at everyone with an innocent look before she giggled, "I am a spirit entity and as you know, spirit entities cannot lie."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No, you are lying. Xiang Li." Ji Yuan protested weakly.

    Xiang Li felt a little indignant as she pointed at Ji Yuan and the Great Beyond Goddess, "Then may I know why the both of you are in each other''s arms?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he panicky tried to push the statuesque veiled maiden away from him but all of a sudden he felt voided of his cultivation strength after he was struck on his chest by her.

    The Great Beyond Goddess stared nkly at Ji Yuan, "I''m your ex-girlfriend?"

    "Not ex anymore." Xiang Li giggled. "Since the two of you are back together now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    ? Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, this is too outrageous. This is a tant lie." Ji Yuan growled unhappily as he tried to push the Great Beyond Goddess to one side so he could at least muster his strength to stand up.

    All of a sudden the Great Beyond Goddess was gripping Ji Yuan hard with her fingers and held him tightly, "You''re my man so I''m not letting go of you."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Little Princess grasped with shock, "I knew it. Xiang Li did not lie at all."<sub> </sub>

    Mo Bei was also stunned, "This Ji Yuan is such a rascal. How did he have an immortal cultivator as his lover?!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess looked at Xiang Li, "Why can''t I remember anything?"

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes before she smiled with an exnation that she had randomly imagined, "Your breakup with my big brother has really affected you badly."

    Then she began to sigh woefully, "You love big brother so much but big brother dare not love you because he feels that he is inferior to you."

    Ji Yuan protested, "I will feel inferior?! Never!"

    Xiang Li answered with an even more woeful look, "Definitely! That is the reason why my big brother trains himself day in and night out so that he is able to bepatible to you."

    Ji Yuan turned to the Great Beyond Goddess with an exasperated look, "Look, don''t believe Xiang Li. Just a minute ago, we are fighting as though we are arch enemies. I don''t know what happens but if you are to recall what happens earlier, we are indeed enemies."

    "Ex-lovers." Xiang Li corrected Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess drew a nk look as she tried to remember what had happened earlier.

    All of a sudden she was flushing as images of Ji Yuan grabbing her boobs and kissing her lips began to sh in her memories.

    Therefore she gasped and held onto Ji Yuan even more tightly as she said firmly, "I remember now. He is indeed my lover."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had regained some of his profound strength and he had begun to stand up now, "No, this is not true at all."

    But to his surprise, the statuesque veiled maiden had continued to cling onto him tightly as she muttered, "No, you are my man."

    The maidens were all staring coldly at Ji Yuan and were muttering, "Ji Yuan, you are too rascal! She has to be his ex-lover for sure."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to look at everyone with a bitter look, "Look, you got to believe me and not Xiang Li. She is not my ex-lover or even my lover. As a matter of fact, I don''t even know her at all. Look, I don''t even know what she looks like so how can she be my lover?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess looked grieved and said mncholy as she slowly removed her veil, "My lord, you really do not remember me anymore?"

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock when he had recognized her extraordinary face and she was indeed the maiden in his dream.

    The rest of the group was also gasping and amazed at the extraordinary beauty of this unknown immortal cultivator.

    Ji Yuan immediately gave a weak cough before he looked up awkwardly, "Everyone, I have a confession to make. A man has to be a man to admit his deeds. She is indeed my ex-lover."

    Xiang Li rejoiced by pping with her hands, "See! I didn''t lie!"

 Chapter 444 The Worst Chapter Of Ji Yuanâ€™s Life

    If there was a chapter in Ji Yuan''s life that he did not like, it was probably now.

    Right now, he was having the worse crisis of his cultivator life where the dangers go beyond the deste monsters and the big bosses.

    He muttered weakly to himself: it is really like a die, die and die chapter at this point of my life. Who knows if this may really be a Chapter 444 of my life?

    The reason why he had suggested so because all the maidens in his party was staring coldly at him.

    Ji Yuan could only return a most bitter smile back at everyone before he looked at the beautiful statuesque maiden that was clinging tightly onto him.

    The more he tried to free himself from her, the more tightly that she had held onto him.

    This caused all the maidens to be envious and they were all staring murderously at Ji Yuan as though they were all thinking of castrating him.

    Ji Yuan did not think that his deration that this unknown maiden was his lover would actually end up in this manner.

    When the statuesque maiden had unveiled her face, her peerless beauty had awestruck him and she was even more beautiful than in his dreams. Overwhelmed by her enticing allure, he had dered that she was indeed his ex-lover. Almost immediately, he had regretted it as he knew that it must be Xiang Li that was influencing his mind and he quickly sought to shake off the evil temptations from his mind.

    He could only say silently to them; look. I am the victim. How the heck do I know that she will not release me and hold me in this manner? Is it really my fault?

    Now matter how much profound strength that he had recovered, he just could not free himself from her strong grip.

    And he was equally exasperated.

    What he did not know that was that the more profound strength that he could recover, the more profound strength that the Great Beyond Goddess could muster for her profound strength was a multiplier of Ji Yuan''s profound strength.

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "Can''t you let go of her already?"

    Again Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I am making a lot of efforts but I can''t."

    Little Princess said coldly, "I really can''t see you making any efforts."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "He is like a ravenous wolf that never let go of a delicious feast.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I can''t believe that this is your opinion of your lord? Am I such a lecherous cultivator?

    Xiang Li who could hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts began to giggle in his soul sea, "Yes you are."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li had taken refuge in Ji Yuan''s soul sea once more as she realized that something was amiss with the situation outside.

    None of the maidens had dared to wrestle the unknown maiden from Ji Yuan because every time they tried to approach Ji Yuan, she would stare at them with such deadly profound fear that they would back immediately.

    Even Yun Chi dared not approached her and she could only pretend to smile wryly as she said, "Isn''t that good? Ji Yuan has another maiden in his harem."

    But inside her heart, she was furious and she had wanted to beat up Ji Yuan as much as Shui Xisi and the other maidens do.

    Ji Yuan had turned to the unknown maiden once more as he asked gently, "Erm, don''t be afraid. What is your name?"

    But at the same time, he was also on guard against her because he knew that he was not her lover and that Xiang Li seemed to have convinced her that she was his lover.<sub> </sub>

    This was something that Ji Yuan could not understand.

    Or is she a mad immortal cultivator in the first ce?

    The Great Beyond Goddess answered with a perplexed look, "My¡­name¡­"

    There was an agonizing look in her countenance as she desperately tried to recall her name¡­

    When Ji Yuan saw her look, he had an empathy look and he said, "Never mind. Take your time to remember. You will surely remember who you are and your name in the future."

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly nodded but her expressions drew a nk.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big brother, why is she forgetful?"

    Ji Yuan could only answer bitterly, "Don''t ask me. How should I know? Maybe it is you who cause it."

    Xiang Li protested strongly as she cuddled Anyang, "Sister, our lord is so bad. He is using me! Xiang Li is unhappy now."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Alright, alright. This is not your fault."

    Xiang Li began to nod delightful as she giggled, "She is such a pretty maiden. It is such a pity that she is forgetful."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Indeed!"

    Xiang Li began to sigh for this ''pretty maiden''.

    What Ji Yuan and Xiang Li do not know was that Xiang Li was actually the cause of the memory loss of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    When the Great Beyond Goddess had struck Ji Yuan''s chest in a swift counter-attack, she had also identally awakened Xiang Li as well.

    Because she was using Xiang Li''s soul as a conduit to materialize in this ne and both of them could not exist at the same time, she was also hit by a sudden jolt that caused her to lose her memory when Xiang Li had suddenly awakened.

    The double shock of getting hit by Ji Yuan''s miracle sword art and seeing Xiang Li when she was supposed to be suppressed by her nked the Great Beyond Goddess. In that very instant, Xiang Li''s willpower had taken over the Great Beyond Goddess temporary and the reversal had happened; in the Celestial Realm, Xiang Li is actually the supreme goddess.

    Naturally Ji Yuan also had a part to y as he had provoked her into anger before the fight; this had caused her judgement to be clouded when Ji Yuan had suggested that he had kissed her and even grabbed her boobs.

    Right now, the Great Beyond Goddess was disying a trusting empathy towards Xiang Li and believed in anything that Xiang Li had said because she could sense that Xiang Li had the most innocent soul.

    Xiang Li did not lie for her malicious intentions but she only did so because she was unconsciously trying to find Ji Yuan a harem.

    Because Xiang Li also had the profound power of the Great Beyond Goddess within her and she was now manifesting her profound power to protect Ji Yuan and to gather a harem for Ji Yuan, the Great Beyond Goddess was also indirectly affected by Xiang Li as the two emotions began to conflict, causing the Great Beyond Goddess to lose her memory all of a sudden.

    Once more Ji Yuan sighed as he felt the soft sensual cuddle of the Great Beyond Goddess in his embrace. This caused a spike in the potency of the masculine profound pill that he had taken and he found his fingers stroking her back.

    Thinking that no one was able to see him as he was facing the maidens, he slowly moved his fingers between the firm butt of the Great Beyond Goddess and he began to y with his fingers¡­

    This caused the Great Beyond Goddess to flush as she let go of a soft gasp¡­

    This was not lost on Mo Bei who Ji Yuan did not take into his equation and he was immediately cursing silently, "This Ji Yuan is definitely not a hero and savior of our celestial fraternity. How dare he does something so outrageous in my presence?!"

    Ji Yuan was definitely not mindful of Mo Bei cold stares but he was being excited by his moist fingers that he was feeling right now.

    And because his nose was particrly sensitive, he knew that this unknown maiden in front of him was getting aroused by him as well¡­

    Xiang Li was also getting aroused as she whispered to Anyang Xiahou, "Sister Anyang, are you enjoying this?"

    Anyang shook her head but she was looking intently at Ji Yuan''s fingers with her divine sense, "No, I am not¡­"

 Chapter 445 The Trial Of The Righteous (1)

    Ji Yuan pulled the unknown statuesque maiden along with him because she was cringing onto him and no matter how hard he had tried, he just could not shake her off.

    He could only mutter as he faced the hostile looks of his party, "Look, it isn''t what all of you think. I really can''t shake her off. Moreover, I don''t even know her name."

    Ling Feiyue hummed softly, "Just because you have a handsome face doesn''t mean that you can flirt with just anyone."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Actually, I am more than just a handsome face-"

    "Other than his handsome face, he has no other substance." Shui Xisi interrupted out of the cold.

    Little Princess agreed, "And he is infamous as an old miser."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am an old miser?!

    Is this a ss discrimination now?

    Are they saying that they are only interested in my good looks only?

    At least Maiden Feng Minyue and Maiden Yu Jingjing don''t think this way. Their impression of me is way better.

    All of a sudden his golden was frozen when he saw that Maiden Feng Minyue and Maiden Yu Jingjing were nodding in agreement with Little Princess.

    What about my lovely Qianfeng?

    Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden, "Other than his lecherous look, I can''t think of anything good about him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I would have a lecherous look?!

    He turned to the statuesque maiden to ask awkwardly, "So, what is it that you like about me?"

    It was just a random question so he did not expect her to reply him anyway.

    But she replied with a smile, "You are a lovely man. The loveliest man that I''ve ever seen."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why is that everyone justmenting on my looks and not my real merits?!

    This is an insult to my pride!

    But he quickly shrugged his shoulder as he rubbed his chin with pride as he thought to himself: Oh well, s, I know that I am really handsome but I cannot help it. Hahaha¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled in his soul sea, "Yes, Big Brother is the most handsome and I love my big brother!"

    Ji Yuanughed: Haha, I love my Xiang Li as well.

    Anyang rolled her eyes as she sighed, "My lord, you are really hopeless."

    But she muttered silently in the next instant and her eyes were beaming: Yes, he is really handsome and lovely¡­

    All of a sudden several golden lights had shed into the golden hallway that Ji Yuan and his party were in and had startled them.

    Immediately a golden portal had appeared in front of them and the voice of a female spirit entity echoed, "Wee to the final trial of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, the Trial of the Righteous."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he muttered, "The Trial of the Righteous?"

    Mo Bei was smiling, "This is just the trial that is meant for me."

    Ji Yuan scoffed at Mo Bei, "Are you suggesting that I won''t pass this trial?"

    But he quicklyughed aloud, "To think that I will be able to reach thest trial of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth on my very first attempt. I must be a genius cultivator."

    "This isn''t thest trial yet." The voice of the female spirit entity echoed.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This isn''t thest trial yet? What do you mean? If this isn''t the final trial then why are you here?"<sub> </sub>

    "I am afraid." The female spirit entity simply said.

    "Who are you afraid of? We can''t hurt spirit entities anyway." Ji Yuan returned a perplexed look.

    The female spirit entity refused to answer Ji Yuan and instead she answered nervously, "In order to qualify for thest trial, you will need to obtain the key of righteousness from the Trial of Righteous."

    The reason why the spirit entity was afraid was because of the presence of the Great Beyond Goddess who could actually hurt the spirit entities in their incorporeal forms.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he asked again, "Is this a group or an individual trial?"

    The female spirit entity answered, "This is an individual trial."

    When she had said that, the maidens in Ji Yuan''s group looked disappointed and were all cursing softly; they wanted to be with Ji Yuan even though he was really very badass and insolent in the trials.

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite disappointed as he did not want to be separated with any of the maidens.

    But this is a trial and he had to ept the nature of the trial in order to move ahead.

    So he sighed softly as he turned to look at the maidens, "I am ready to enter the trial. Are you all ready?"

    Ling Feiyue too, was sighing softly. "We are always ready."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "This is just like any other trial. Do we even need to get ready? By being in the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth, we are all prepared for the trial."

    She was actually just mouthing brave words but in actuality, she was reluctant to be parted away from Ji Yuan.

    The rest of the maidens were all nodding.

    Mo Bei grinned, "I am also ready."

    Ji Yuan returned a nonchnt look at Mo Bei when he had heard him as though he did not care.

    He turned a look at the statuesque veiled maiden in his embrace, "Erm, I am going to take my trial now. Do you know that even if you cling onto me, we will still be separated in the very end? Are you prepared to take the trial as well?"

    But the Great Beyond Goddess simply looked at Ji Yuan and her expressions were a nk.

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "I may want to take the trial but I can''t enter the portal with her. What if she meets up with an incident inside the trial and loses her life?"

    He was imagining deste monsters inside the golden portal and all kinds of horrors that were inside.

    "No one will lose their lives inside this trial." The female spirit entity answered him.

    Ji Yuan was immediately overjoyed; that means that no harm will befall to any of his dear consorts and lovers either.

    "Haha, that is so good to hear."

    Ji Yuan''s spirit was aroused immediately as he whispered to the statuesque maiden in his arm, "Well, you have heard the trial spirit. So I am stepping into the golden portal now. Unfortunately, we have to part after this."

    He knew that this astonishing beautiful immortal cultivator would not be able toplete the Trial of Righteous in her present state.

    Although he was reluctant but he was also d at the same time. It was because he could not risk his group should she regains her consciousness all of a sudden; she is simply too dangerous.

    "Don''t leave me¡­" The Great Beyond Goddess pleaded with Ji Yuan and her beautiful starry eyes seemed to have the power to melt hearts.

    But Ji Yuan''s heart was as hard as stone as he dashed into the golden portal; he had only one main objective and that was toplete this trial and to aid Jiajia quickly.

    There was a brilliant sh of golden light as Ji Yuan entered through the golden portal.

    The bright lights continued endlessly and there were a lot ofmotions.

    When Ji Yuan''s visions had cleared, he was quite startled to find himself seated in a throne and he was facing hundreds of people.

    Where am I?

    One person in front of him addressed respectfully, "My king, this is time for you to make your royal decisions."

    Ji Yuan was startled: I am a king?! What royal decision?

    Then heughed, "Since I am a king, where is my queen?"

 Chapter 446 The Trial Of The Righteous (2)

    Ji Yuan wasughing in jest as he addressed his ''subjects'', "Since I am a king, where is my queen?"

    He immediately knew that this was a trial like the Dream Trial. No wonder the female trial spirit had told him that no one would die in this trial.

    Because everything here was not real.

    That caused Ji Yuan tough loudly as he repeated, "So where is my queen?"

    One of the hundreds of subjects answered solemnly, "Your Majesty, you have no queen."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li looked equally disappointed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea; that would mean a no show for her and Anyang Xiahou.

    So she hastily said to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, ask them about your harem!"

    Ji Yuan quickly acknowledged to Xiang Li and asked his subjects, "Where is my harem then?"

    Another subject hastily answered, "Your Majesty, you''ve no harem either."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Even Fairy Anyang Xiahou was cursing softly, "This is too ridiculous¡­"

    She was starting to mimic what Ji Yuan would usually say after spending too much with him.

    A disappointed but quick witted Ji Yuan quickly encouraged himself by dering, "Then let''s have a beauty selection in the kingdom to select consorts for my harem."

    Another subject hastily bowed, "Your Majesty, there are no women in the kingdom."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was muttering weakly, the voice of the female trial spirit echoed into the throne room and said, "Your subjects will present three tasks for you to judge as a king. Only if you are able to judge worthy then will the Key of Righteousness be obtainable for you. Now let the trial begins."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he asked, "What three tasks? Is there any scores or points in this trial?"

    But the female trial spirit seemed to have departed and did not answer Ji Yuan.

    The subject with the tallest headgear returned a light bow as he said respectfully, "Your Majesty, we have three urgent matters for you to exercise judgement and we are awaiting your decree."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he said unhappily, "Hurry and tell me. I am in a hurry to return to my lovers-"

    "And to bang them." Xiang Li interrupted with a giggle.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "Don''t add words to my mouth, Xiang Li."

    "There are no women here. Naturally our lord will not want to stay here a second longer." Anyang Xiahou also gave her suggestion.

    Ji Yuan returned an awkward look before he muttered weakly, "I seem to have two worms in my stomach that is able to know all my thoughts¡­"

    Xiang Li had heard him and she was smiling, "Of course I know Big Brother''s thoughts, spirit entities do not lie!"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly when he had heard Xiang Li; he had wanted to tell her that she was never a spirit entity in the first ce but the Goddess'' Tear. However he could not even tell her because everything rted to her existence, she would forget immediately. So it was pointless to even mention to Xiang Li.

    "Never mind." Ji Yuan weakly said before he raised his voice to ask his subject, "So what is the first task?"

    Again the subject with the tallest headgear said, "Lately we have too many in the kingdom that are taking drugs and their punishment are the death sentence¡­"

    "Do they have to be sentenced to the death? They will ruin themselves anyway by consuming drugs anyway." Ji Yuan interrupted with a frown. "This isn''t hard. Just demolish the death sentence."

    The subject with the tallest headgear said, "It is a punishable death offense for holding 1g of any drugs¡­"

    Ji Yuan cursed softly: 1g of drug and it is punishable by death. What sort of a stupidw is this¡­

    The subject with the tallest headgear continued, "The vast majority of the people believes that the death sentence is for the good of the state and it keeps the drug abuse low, making this kingdom one of the safest ce in the continent."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "So what is the problem?"

    The subject with the tallest headgear said gravely, "It is the minority of the people that is a problem as they want to demolish the death sentence. So we want to ask Your Majesty how we are going to deal with the minority."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; he cannot believe that such a draconianw would exist in the world. With thisw, all the cultivators in the Celestial Realm would already be sentenced to the death sentence since they are all drug abusers.

    But now, he had to y the righteous card in order to obtain the Key of Righteousness. Obviously this trial is the Trial of the Righteous and he had to fulfill the trialws in order toplete the trial even though he did not like thew.

    And he had to punish the minority who had protested against this stupid draconianw.

    Ji Yuan asked Xiang Li and Anyang, "So what are your thoughts on this?"

    "Our lord should be the one that ought to be sentenced to death for abusing the masculine profound pill." Anyang chuckled and her smiles were really lovely.

    Seeing her lovely smiles, Ji Yuanughed jovially. "That is so true, Haha. What about you Xiang Li?"

    Xiang Li said with an uninterested look, "They are all men. None of my concerns."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is so typical of Xiang Li¡­

    Only another maiden will be able to get Xiang Li''s interest.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly since none of his two spirit consorts would be able to help him on this.

    "Your Majesty, what is your judgement and decree?" The subject with the tallest headgear urged him.

    Ji Yuan frowned; the more he thinks about this, the more he detests thisw. Why should he punish the minority even though the majority wants the death sentence?

    Finally he rolled his eyes and chuckled, "Listen up! This is my decree. Let the kingdom be divided into those that support the death sentence and those that don''t support the death sentence. For those that support the death sentence, they and their future descendants will be subjected to the death sentence for breaking thew in the future. As for those that opposes it, they and their future descendants will be rehabilitated and counselled but never the death sentence."

    All the subjects seemed to be reacting in horror.

    "Your Majesty, this isn''t wise! Do you mean that even murderers will be allowed to roam free in the future?"

    But Ji Yuan said firmly, "Those that support the death sentence are brutal people anyway. So their future descendants are often the ones that will be brutal murderers anyway. So they deserved the death sentence."

    "Your Majesty, please reconsider your decree!" The subjects were all in an uproar now. "How is thisw fair?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Thisw is very fair since only a small number of minority is able to enjoy the special rights of not being able to get the death sentence. So I hereby dere them to be the special privilege group like myself and they will all be the new nobles instead."

    All the hundreds of subjects were rendered speechless by their king: ¡­

 Chapter 447 The Trial Of The Righteous (3)

    Ji Yuan simply frowned with a stern voice, "My decree is thew."

    Just as the hundreds of subjects were all muttering among themselves, Ji Yuan added sarcastically, "I am the King or you are the King?"

    When the subjects heard Ji Yuan, silence began to overwhelm them because Ji Yuan is really the king and not them!

    Xiang Li and Anyang panicky shouted in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Big Brother/My lord! Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan answered by further announcing with a haughty look, "For disobeying the king, you will all be sentenced to the death unless of course, you happen to be the special privilege."

    He was not making an empty threat; this is a cultivation dream trial after all so he did not have any grudges to put anyone to the death because it isn''t real.

    The hundreds of subjects had no choice but to ept the decision because all of them supported the death penalty for drug abusers.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he thought; Eek, it seems that all my subjects support the death penalty because they are all loyal subjects that want to make the kingdom a good ce to live. No, there must be a catch somewhere. THIS MUST BE A TRICK!

    Xiang Li screamed at Ji Yuan, "Big Brother! No, no, this isn''t a trick at all~"

    Anyang face-palmed herself, "This is actually an obvious trial. Why can''t my lord see through this¡­"

    Ji Yuan insisted that he was right, "I tell you girls, this is a TRICK!"

    Anyang rolled her eyes but said nothing now; there was nothing that she could do now. Ji Yuan had already given his decree.

    One of the subjects with a grand hat stepped forward, "Your Majesty, we have a grave situation in the city now. A deadly sickness and que has now invaded our city and we need to iste the sick."

    Another subject urgently added, "We need to quarantine them and disinfect all their things."

    "I will suggest that we fence them in their respective blocks and don''t allow them to go out." Another added.

    "What if there is only one case in the block?"

    "If there is one case in the block, we will quarantine all of them."

    "How about their daily needs?"

    "Do we even need to give them vegetables? They can eat grass!"

    "Better to sacrifice one lives than afford to have ten more lives that will be lost eventually!"

    "Kill all their pets too! They may spread the que!"

    "Your Majesty, this is our proposal to save our royal city from this iing cmity!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he asked coldly, "They are not cattle. Why can''t you send in the physicians to save them?"

    "The gue is too deadly! There are no cures at all! Many of the physicians are dead because they are in contact with the afflicted! These people are cursed by the gods!"

    Ji Yuan asked again, "You are not going to give them any food?"

    "They are going to die anyway. Why waste good food on them? Also, everything that they touch will cause everyone else to be sick! We cannot even afford to send them any food at all!"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "The sick are not cattle¡­"

    Then he sighed again; the cultivators are immune to sickness and aging. We are immune to afflictions because we cultivate the ways of the heavens¡­

    He asked coldly, "Then do we need to burn their houses to contain the que?"

    "Good idea! Your Majesty, you''re a genius! Let''s burn down their houses and everything that they have touched. Leave nothing to chance! Even the space and air around them are tainted!"

    The subjects immediately shouted with great fervor, "Deaths to all the gued people! Kill them all!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<sub> </sub>

    Anyang muttered softly, "I know that this is a trial but this is too heartless. My lord, you may have already failed thest trial but this trial is too much even for me to bear."

    Xiang Li had watery tears as she spoke, "This trial is too much. It tests your resolve to save the majority by sacrificing the minority."

    Ji Yuan nodded to them as he frowned, "For once, we all agreed with one another."

    Xiang Li giggled softly as she rubbed her tears clean, "I always agree with Big Brother!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Never and you are just a peeping tom."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Big Brother, this is too hurtful! You are the one that enjoying it!" Xiang Li protested immediately.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "Sure I am the one enjoying it but what does it have to do with you in the first ce?"

    Xiang Li protested to a slight whisper, "I am keeping watch over Big Brother in case you lost all your vitality to depravity."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    "Ahem!" Ji Yuan coughed weakly as he tried to focus on the hundreds of subjects that were appealing loudly to him to carry out the royal decree and many of the subjects were even on the knees begging the king to save the royal city.

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "What is the name of this que? What are the symptoms?"

    "We just call this the Covid. People just die mysteriously from this! Save our women, our children, our elderly and our ves!"

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "You mean, we have ves in this city?!"

    "Of course we have ves in the city, Your Majesty! ves are good. They do the menial work!"

    Ji Yuan had a shiver down in his spine; he rarely felt fear but this brought coldness to his heart.

    It was because he was once a ve to Little Princess and that was why he hated very with all his heart.

    p Even such a mesmerizing and sensual beauty like Little Princess, he could not bear her sexual very and when he thought that all the gross and olddies forcing themselves on tender grasses like himself, the shiver down his spine was shaking more violently than before.</anda>

    Thinking of Little Princess now, he began to drool when he pictured her naked in front of him andpleting the full rated services for him¡­

    I must find a time to bang my dear Little Princess thoroughly. This time I will be the alpha, hehehe¡­

    He was instantly filled with drooling images of a naked Little Princess in variouspromising poses...

    "Your Majesty! Please give us your decree!"

    Ji Yuan was interrupted from his blissed picture that was between Little Princess'' legs and he released a long groans. "This is my royal decree then. We must live with the Covid. Everyone is equal in the eyes of thew¡­I mean everyone is equal in the eyes of your king. Therefore you are to mix with the afflicted, eat with them and also to kiss them."

    All the hundreds of subjects werepletely stunned!

    Xiang Li chuckled as she raised her thumb to praise Ji Yuan, "Best ever decision made by Big Brother!"

    Anyang face-palmed her face, "No, it is not! Our lord is just screwing everyone, including this trial¡­"

 Chapter 448 The Trial Of The Righteous (4)

    Ji Yuanughed as he ignored Anyang face-palming and his ego was bolstered by Xiang Li''s praises.

    He said to Xiang Li, "You know, your big brother has always been a humble man but I don''t want to disappoint you. Hahahaha¡­"

    "Naturally my decisions are always the best!" Ji Yuan could not resist adding.

    Xiang Li nodded gleefully as she returned a happy wink, "That is right. Big Brother never disappoints me!"

    Nothing pleases Xiang Li more than the praises from her big brother since it was rarely granted especially when Ji Yuan often disagreed with her by insisting that he was right, rather than she was right.

    When Anyang saw their expressions, she could only mutter weakly. "That is only because Xiang Li is praising you¡­"

    Then she looked at Xiang Li before muttering. "Why are you so happy for? That is because you''re praising him and that is why he is agreeing with you. If you disagree with him, of course he won''t praise you¡­"

    Just like Xiang Li would never remember she is the Goddess'' Tear even if someone mentions in front of her, Ji Yuan and Xiang Li will never remember if Anyang rebukes them negatively; they have evolved their shameless level to a whole new level by now.

    Ji Yuan stepped forward and asked them, "So what is the third decree that I will need to grant? Hurry and tell me!"

    He did not care for the trial anymore because he knew that in his heart, he had already screwed up the trial so he was determined to screw the trial back.

    That was why he had an indifferent look now especially when the first two royal decisions that he had to make had crossed his bottom line.

    A subject with a tall purple hat stepped forward to say gravely, "Your Majesty, themoners are asking for the right to represent themselves in important matter of state through voting or they will start to riot against us."

    Another subject angrily said, "Thesemoners deserve no right! Rather, we should put them to the death!"

    "Commoners are ignorant and their stupidity are absorbs!" Another subject angrily said.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This doesn''t sound too wrong?"

    "Your Majesty!" Another subject stepped forward to say, "You are our monarch and we are your court officials. Who knows the matter of state better than the peasants? I suggest that we punish the rioters and put them all to the death."

    Many of the subjects stepped forward to agree as they echoed together, "Let''s put them all to the death!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "What if I suggest that we give them the chance to vote?"

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    Ji Yuan raised his voice to dere, "So hear me loud and clear. This is my royal decree. We will give them the chance to vote in matter of the state."

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects broke into chaotic mumblings in the royal hall and were dumbfounded by Ji Yuan''s decision.

    An old subject stepped forward to say slowly, "If this is Your Majesty''s decision then we will not stop you. How about this then? Shall we divide themoners into their districts and the provinces then they will vote to elect a respected noble in their area. Then we will have the noble to represent them. In this way, we can avoid the foolishness of the peasants while giving them a chance to vote."

    Many of the subjects were now smiling and nodding that this was a great idea.

    Ji Yuan disyed a deep frown, "You mean this is a false sense of voting? Are you thinking of protecting your very own interest? Sure themoners may not vote in the best interest of the state but I am sure all the nobles aren''t voting in the best interest of the state either and are voting in their best interest only."

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was too tant in his opinion that he caused his subjects to be speechless.<sub> </sub>

    He asked again, "Why do themoners want to vote all of a sudden? Answer me honestly. Is the tax too high?"

    A subject said with great indignant, "Absolutely not! Under our superior guidance, our kingdom has been growing stronger and stronger everyday. As a matter of fact, under our supreme guidance, our people is able to live in greatfort. We only recently revised the wages of our prime minster and the cab ministers and the people are protesting."

    "So what is the prime minster pay?" Ji Yuan smirked coldly.

    ? "It is only 2.2mil gold." A subject stepped forward and he was the prime minister. "But I have your blessing, remember?"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "Only 2.2mil? I am sure that you may have a lot of secret backdoor bribes too."

    The prime minster protested immediately, "Of course not! Under my leadership, our kingdom totally has no corruption at all!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "My foot. Do you mind telling me what is the average wage a month for amoner?"

    Many of the subjects were stammering now, "1200 gold, 1500 gold, 2000 gold, 2500 gold, 3000 gold¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "Are you trying to revise your people average wages a month now to justify your millions? Damn it. Our kingdom is like a little red dot."

    "No, no, no¡­" All the subjects protested immediately.

    Ji Yuan dered loudly, "This is my royal decree. The people will get to vote in all matters of the state. However all the nobles and court officials will not be able to vote but they will also get the lowest wages of the lowest wage peasant."

    All the subjects were shocked beyond words by Ji Yuan and they were stunned.

    "Your Majesty! Please reconsider!"

    "This is too ridiculous!"

    "How can we get the same wages as the peasants¡­"

    Ji Yuan had a sudden quirky thought as he quickly smiled jovially, "Also, none of the nobles and court officials are allowed to marry one another. You must only marry themoners. Those who break myw will be reduced to amoner."

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects: ¡­

    All the subjects were in an uproar now.

    But Ji Yuan began tough aloud, "Now you are all truly servants of the state now. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden a bright light had descended onto the royal hall and the voice of the trial spirit could be heard again. "The trial has ended. Now it is the result of your trial."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly as he face-palmed himself, "Oh crap. I forget that I am in the middle of the trial."

    The trial spirit said gently, "Based on the result of your three royal decisions, you will receive a score ranging from 0 to 100. In order to pass the trial and to obtain the Key of Righteous, you have to obtain at least 70 points."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "That doesn''t sound too hard to pass."

    Anyang face-palmed herself, "Why is that I got a feeling that you will score a 0."

    "I think so too as well." Xiang Li was face-palming as well.

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "Me too as well."

    The Trial Spirit said coolly, "Behold your result¡­"

    In the middle of the royal hall, there was a blue whirling of light and a number began to sh slowly.

    Soon the number began to reveal as a 1.

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed as he almost screamed out with joy. "Haha look my girls. I''ve got a 1 and it is not a 0."

    Xiang Li was also overjoyed and she was beaming with joyful tears, "Woot! My Big Brother isn''t a zero fighter and he has got a 1! I am so happy for my Big Brother!"

    Anyang said weakly, "0 and 1. What is the difference? It is still a fail¡­"

    But Ji Yuan and Xiang Li were bothughing jovially, "Haha. We got a 1! Haha¡­"

 Chapter 449 The Trial Of The Righteous (5)

    Ji Yuanughed as he watched his 1 intently, "Haha. At least we got one thing right in the trial."

    Xiang Li nodded jovially, "That is right! Big Brother is so impressive!"

    Anyang reminded them, "Do you know that you''ve just failed the trial."

    Ji Yuan was grinning, "At least I am not a zero fighter like the earlier trial. Haha. This is something worth celebrating about."

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li suddenly screamed as she pointed to the light in front of them. "Big brother, look!"

    The 1 had suddenly swirled into nothingness and a 2 had reced it.

    Ji Yuan could not believe his eyes as he stammered, "It is a 2! We actually got a 2!"

    Anyang shook her head as she face-palmed herself, "A 2 is still a failure."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "A 2 makes a whole world difference. It is a double of a 1. We have scored twice as much as our previous score."

    Xiang Li began to p her hands, "Hehehe, yes it is! Big Brother is good in maths too!"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Haha, of course I am."

    Just as Anyang wanted to say something, the 2 had suddenly be a 3.

    Ji Yuan saw that too as he gasped, "We got a 3¡­"

    Before he could finish his sentence, the 3 had be a 4 and the 4 had be a 5.

    Ji Yuan asked the trial spirit with a frown, "Are you ying me? So I score a 5?"

    The trial spirit muttered weakly, "I don''t know. I''ve never seen anything like this before. Something went wrong in the dream trial¡­"

    Anyang shouted all of a sudden, "Look!"

    The 5 had suddenly be a 6 and it was now rapidly increasing to 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 44¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I actually score a 44¡­what amazing score¡­"

    Xiang Li was startled too, "We have 44 right decisions¡­"

    Anyang gasped aloud, "No, it is not over yet."

    The 44 had suddenly be a 50 and the numbers are rapidly increasing.

    Soon it bes 55, 60, 65, 69¡­

    Ji Yuan stared at the number 69, "One more point and I will pass¡­"

    Anyang gasped, "69¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled shyly, "Position 69¡­"

    Ji Yuan and Anyang: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan, Anyang and Xiang Li were all shouting jovially when the number had suddenly changed to 70.

    "We have actually passed! This is impossible!"

    Ji Yuan could not resist chuckling, "It is all thanks to my brilliant decisions."

    Xiang Li nodded, "Big Brother is indeed a genius in oveing the trials!"

    Anyang gasped, "Look¡­"<sub> </sub>

    The score had suddenly jumped to 80 and was rapidly increasing to 90.

    Then 91, 92, 93, 94 before slowing to 95¡­

    Ji Yuan was bewildered, "Is this trial broken? Not only have I passed but I have scored a 95?"

    The trial spirit soft voice was muttering with disbelief, "Impossible, impossible¡­no one has ever score this high before¡­the highest ever was 79¡­and he scores a 95¡­"

    All of a sudden the 95 began to spin again and it bes a 96 and a 97 before increasing to 98 and 99.

    Ji Yuan''s jaws began to drop¡­

    All of a sudden it had be a 100.

    The trial spirit was muttering nonstop now, "Impossible, impossible. This trial result is too absurd¡­"

    Even Anyang was blinking nonstop but as a former trial spirit, she knew that this was too real. "How did my lord get a 100? All these decisions are actually the right ones?"

    Xiang Li giggled; she did not care for the reasons at all.

    Anyang muttered, "This is the Trial of the Righteousness and the purpose is to obtain the Key of Righteous¡­that means that the decision my lord has made is the righteous ones¡­"

    There was a sudden golden light as a spirit key had suddenly materialized in front of Ji Yuan and it was quickly floating into Ji Yuan''s body.

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly as a warm sensation entered his body, "So I have now passed the trial and have now obtained the Key of Righteous as well."

    The Trial Spirit muttered weakly, "Congrats, you have passed the trial."

    Ji Yuan grinned before he asked solemnly, "How about the rest of mypanions? Did they pass?"

    The Trial Spirit answered nonchntly, "Some are still making their decisions. Probably half of them won''t be able to pass because the failure rate for this trial is more than 70% previously."

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed but he was not saddened. It was because the trial would soon end anyway and they would all be united again.

    Xiang Li was actually disappointed as she asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, so who do you think will be able to pass the trial?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly before answering her, "Probably Feiyue. She always has a righteous heart even though she is an unorthodox cultivator. Probably also Maiden Feng Minyue and Maiden Yu Jingjing as well."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan seemed to remember something as he raised his voice to the air, "Wait a minute! Why are we still in the trial? Didn''t we already obtain the Key of Righteous? Why are we still in this trial?"

    The Trial Spirit answered softly, "Before the trial officially ended, don''t you want to know what your reward will be?"

    Ji Yuan was too caught up with passing this trial to think of any reward. In fact, he was expecting himself to fail this trial.

    Heughed, "Haha. I will actually get a reward?"

    The Trial Spirit answered softly and her voice was like a breeze, "Not just any reward but a S Rank Reward forpleting this trial perfectly."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he was startled, "A S Rank reward?"

    He began to rub his chin to ponder over his reward. "So what will I actually get? A divine sword or a cultivation pill? Frankly speaking, I don''t need any¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled as she whispered to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, maybe you will get more of these profound masculine pills¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Don''t be ridiculous. These profound masculine pills aren''t even a B grade reward."

    Then he grinned to the air, "So what is my S Rank Reward? I am dying to know already. Haha."

    The Trial Spirit answered softly, "This is your reward..."

    All of a sudden a familiar voice broke through the air but it was not the voice of the Trial Spirit, "You will get a Queen."

    Ji Yuan immediately turned ashen because it was the voice of the veiled statuesque maiden.

    And in the next instant, a rift had appeared above the royal hall and an absolutely stunning maiden had fluttered down the royal hall with a graceful tiptoe; she was indeed the Great Beyond Goddess.

    And she was lookingpletely sane!

 Chapter 450 The Temptation (1)

    When the Great Beyond Goddess broke through the rift into the royal hall, her soft enticing voice drowned out the voice of the trial spirit who reacted with great fear.

    "You will get a Queen."

    This was what she had muttered softly as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see her but he quickly reacted calmly, "This is a dream trial. You cannot kill me in this ce."

    He had suddenly recognized her as the maiden goddess that he had dreamed of that was trying to kill him.

    She isn''t a dream?

    That was his first thought.

    The Great Beyond Goddess smiled coldly, "Is that so? This ce is not the first time that we have met. I''ve wounded you in your dreams previously."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly startled when he recalled his injuries when he had woke up; he had thought that he was beaten up by his maidens when he was sound asleep but it now seemed that his dream was not a dream anymore or else how was he going to exin where this mysterious maiden hade from?

    He could only say weakly, "This must be a misunderstanding, am I right? I mean, I don''t even know you."

    Regardless, it was better to im not to know her first. After all, he was only here to pass the trial and to get the trial reward.

    Xiang Li could only cowered in fear in the presence of this mysterious statuesque maiden as she whispered in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Big Brother, your girlfriend looks really unhappy today."

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "She isn''t my girlfriend. Where is Anyang?"

    Xiang Li could not find Anyang anywhere near and she could only muttered weakly, "I can sense that she is asleep now. Just a minuet ago, she is awake¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly at the statuesque maiden, "I don''t even know what your name is. Are you sure we have met before or are you one of the deste immortals? Do you think that you ought to owe me an exnation?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess answered coldly, "You are Ji Yuan. I know you. Don''t bother to try to make a sneak attack on me. I know all your tricks."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes; how did she know that I am checking her for a chance to make an attack?

    No matter how beautiful this statuesque maiden is, Ji Yuan knows that she is an immortal and the power disparity between them is vast. That is why he knows that he has to strike fast and hard if he has to live.

    He already had the cultivation of a great saint and his profound aura was that of a great saint. But this maiden goddess'' cultivation strength here was stronger than even a great saintess!

    Shall he disyed his fighting profound animus to that of an eighth immortal positioning?

    But all of a sudden he had a shiver; No, this won''t work. This maiden goddess here was even stronger in her cultivation than even Yun Chi...

    But how is this possible? Maybe it is because she is also a trial spirit?

    The Great Beyond Goddess was now looking intently at Ji Yuan and she had conflicting emotions; it was because she had remembered all his light touches and that this insolent mortal had even dare to put his fingers between her legs¡­

    At the same time, she was also startled that Xiang Li and she could now co-exist in the same space and this was something unthinkable. It was as though Xiang Li had evolved her own personality due to Ji Yuan.

    She had tried to search Ji Yuan''s soul sea for an answer but she could simply not understand why Ji Yuan had not made any wish despite the fact that he was aware that Xiang Li is the Goddess'' Tear.<sub> </sub>

    ? In Ji Yuan''s soul sea, she saw memories of Ji Yuan saying to himself. "Goddess Tear or not, Xiang Li is not a tool for me or for anyone. She is my best friend, my dearpanion and my spirit consort. Therefore I will always protect her like a big brother should."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was well aware that merely possessing the Goddess'' Tear even unknowingly will surely prompt the owner to make the wish as soon as possible for the Goddess'' Tear corrupts the heart of everyone, including the immortals.

    But Ji Yuan was the only one that was unmoved even though Xiang Li had magnified his heart demons by manifolds and he remained true to his heart.

    The Great Goddess sighed softly as she recalled how she had regained her temporary memory loss; the instant that she had entered into the Dream Trial, she had suddenly remembered who she was. As the Great Beyond Goddess, she willed herself to pass the trial and to tear a rift to where Ji Yuan was.

    This was something that no cultivators or immortals were able to aplish because only she was a special existence and she was the Great Beyond Goddess, the great goddess above all the great goddesses.

    Ji Yuan simply could not find any weakness to attack even as he asked weakly, "What is it that you want with me?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not answer Ji Yuan and instead she continued to stare at Ji Yuan for a while before she answered softly, "Did you hear me? You will get a Queen."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "You don''t mean yourself, do you?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not respond immediately but as Ji Yuan was thinking that she was only teasing him, she had suddenly returned a light nod. "Indeed!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    It took a while before Ji Yuan started to regain hisposure as heughed, "For a moment I was almost fooled by you. Let me tell you. I will refuse you for two reasons. One, no one can force me to do what I don''t want to, no matter how beautiful you are. Two, I have my own manly principles to adhere to."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was smiling all of a sudden when she raised two of her fingers, "I can tell you two reasons why you will. One, Little Princess has already forced you to submit in the past and this won''t be the first time that you will submit¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly protested loudly as though his manly pride had been wounded, "That is different! Who says I''ve submitted to her? She may have my body but never my soul!"

    But silently Ji Yuan was cursing; how did she know my past?!

    The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly smiling, "Two, don''t you want to regain back your beautiful beard? Isn''t this something that you want to take back all this while? What if I can restore your beautiful beard?"

    Ji Yuan''s golden eyes were wild all of a sudden and he was suddenly trying to suppress his excitement, "Haha¡­is this for real?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess smiled, "For real."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, "My beautiful beard¡­"

    Xiang Li was protesting loudly, "No! No! No! Big Brother!"

 Chapter 451 The Temptation (2)

    Ji Yuan tried to suppress his excitement, "You can really help me to get back my beautiful beard back, restored as before and even more beautiful than ever before?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess nodded with a curtsy smile, "Indeed I can."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "In that case then I shall¡­"

    "You shall receive your wish." The Great Beyond Goddess smiled in respond as she lifted her fingers.

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan interrupted her with a frown. "I didn''t say that I will agree to that."

    p The Great Beyond Goddess was startled and so was Xiang Li.</anda>

    Xiang Li gasped with startled expressions, "Big Brother, didn''t you say¡­"

    Even the Great Beyond Goddess was greatly startled, "But you just say¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted them as he replied nonchntly, "I am just rejoicing that I may get my beautiful beard back but I didn''t say I want to get my beautiful beard back."

    Xiang Li, Great Beyond Goddess: ???

    Ji Yuan exined with a soft sigh, "If I want to get back my beautiful beard, do you agree that I can get it back anytime?"

    Xiang Li was perplexed, "How Big Brother? You''ve never share with me¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess wavered a little before she rposed herself; she had instantly understood what Ji Yuan had just said.

    If he had wanted to regained his beautiful beard which was the one that he actually desired the most, all he needed to do is to make a wish since he had already understood that Xiang Li was the Goddess Tear and he can make a wish to regain his beautiful beard. But he had firmly resisted this.

    Rather, he had decided to shoulder upon the great shame of not having a beard in his cruel celestial fraternity and be subjected to ridicule than be tempted to wish for his beautiful beard to be restored back.

    "I may not know who you are." Ji Yuan continued, "But I can see that you are trying to make me to make a wish from Xiang Li. Is that what you are trying to do?"

    Xiang Li suddenly had a nk expression; anything that is rted to her as the Goddess Tear or as a hint, she will not remember or be able to hear it.

    Ji Yuan took a quick nce at Xiang Li and as he sighed softly; poor Xiang Li¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess was quiet; it was because Ji Yuan had struck bull-eye on her intention.

    Ji Yuan continued coolly, "I will never do this because I don''t want to lose Xiang Li. Compare to Xiang Li, my beautiful beard means nothing. For Xiang Li, I can even throw away my manly pride and ego. Therefore, you can''t move my heart. It is something that I have already decided."

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly nodded, "Just like you will not want to lose your Jiajia even though you may have the chance to regain your beard, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan disyed a frown, "You even know this?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly nodded, "Even when everyone else thinks that otherwise, you have stubbornly hold upon your beliefs and refused to abandon her even though she had you believed that she was undeserving of you."

    "She is never undeserving of me." Ji Yuan interrupted with a loud chuckle as he recalled their first meeting together at the information guild.

    Meeting Jiajia for the very first time had suddenly revived his interest in women again after he had buried it for hundreds of years. Prior to that, there was rumor that he was actually only interested in men and he had badmouthed all the beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity every time someone mentioned a well renowned beautiful cultivator.

    But the truth was that Ji Yuan was extremelyfortable with Jiajia because he thought her as the most beautiful maiden that he had ever seen and mostly importantly, her cultivation was actually below him!<sub> </sub>

    That was what gave him the courage.

    Although that turned out to be a great mistake after he had panicked, thinking that he would never seen her again after he was being chased by two saintesses, he still managed to cultivate to the saint level with whatever resources that he could muster. So that was still consider a fortunate event. His original n was to wait another 500 years to cultivate to a saint.

    Ji Yuan suddenly spoke up as he said to the unknown maiden goddess, "Let''s be frank and let me ask you this. Are you the Trial Spirit or not?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess lied, "Naturally I am."

    She had suppressed the original trial spirit to officiate the trial. In a sense, she was not lying but this was actually not the whole truth.

    Ji Yuan nodded cautiously as he raised his voice firmly, "In that case, I want my trial reward for passing this dream trial but this is not my wish. Although I don''t know how do you know about Xiang Li but this is what I really want."

    The Great Beyond Goddess had an unhappy look on her beautiful countenance. The main reason why she had appeared in this trial was to trick Ji Yuan in making his wish but it seemed that she had failed.

    It seemed that she could not fool Ji Yuan¡­

    After a moment of thought, she lifted her fingers to say. "You shall get your trial reward then¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" JI Yuan had suddenly shouted.

    The Great Beyond Goddess paused in her action with an annoyed look and asked, "What is it?"

    Ji Yuan grinned like a badass as he rubbed his nose, "So you''re the Trial Spirit and therefore you''re incapable of lying. Just now you have said that you are willing to be my Queen?"

    Xiang Li was instantly delighted as she pped her hands, "Wow good. I am going to have a sister very soon! Where is Anyang? Is she still in a slumber? I must tell her that when she has woken up!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess was jolted; she had said that in a jest but she had never expected this Ji Yuan to be so shameless as to raise this issue as a reward!

    She slowly said, "That is only a joke. Please do not take it into heart¡­"

    "It is a joke?! A Trial Spirit can actually lie?!" Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her with shock in his eyes.

    But the Great Beyond Goddess merely smiled as she answered, "Unfortunately you have already reached the limit of your ability to obtain spirit animus. You should well be aware of this. You can only have one spirit animus at the sixth cultivation realm and another at the seventh cultivation realm. That is your limit."

    She did not lie and she knew that Ji Yuan was well aware of this fact.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was smiling enchantingly now.

    This caused Ji Yuan to groan almost immediately.

    Surely not!

    Ji Yuan was well aware of this fact but he was also quite shameless when it came to a trial and especially when ites to a such a powerful spirit animus such as her.

    "Hmph, who says anything about making you my spirit animus? I just want you to be my Queen. Isn''t that what you''ve just said?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess looked a little startled. Indeed, that was what she had said earlier...

 Chapter 452 The Temptation (3)

    The Great Beyond Goddess was indeed startled but it was only briefly.

    She had also quicklyposed herself to hum coldly in return, "You should well know that this is impossible. Therefore I can only give you another S Rank Reward¡­"

    But Ji Yuan interrupted her again, this time with a solemn look. "Isn''t it enough already? We all know that there is only one Trial Spirit and you are not one. In fact, you are supposed to take the trial with me and you have actually lost your memory. Before I take this trial to obtain the Key of Righteous for the final trial, you are with me and you have actually lost your memory. So howe you are the Trial Spirit now? And most importantly of all, what are you doing in my Dream Trial?"

    He turned to Xiang Li and asked, "Xiang Li, don''t you think this is a little too weird as well? You are a Trial Spirit too and you should know that there is only one Trial Spirit in each trial. Never two."

    But Xiang Li answered with a nonchnt look, "What is so weird about this? She is your girlfriend and she has followed you here somehow."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Follow me somehow? Somehow?! Xiang Li, you are totally hopeless¡­ I am talking about having two Trial Spirits in a single trial... what is this answer that you are giving me...

    But Ji Yuan began to turn solemn once more as he turned to the maiden goddess to say firmly, "Since you''ve recovered your memory, you can tell me who you are. And why are you trying to kill me just now?"

    He had clearly remembered that this maiden goddess was trying toy waste to his cultivation core before she had lost her memory earlier. (Chapter 441)

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly lifted her fingers as she pondered nkly; should she kill or not kill this cultivator that had so much as to lift his dirty hands on her?

    When she had suddenly recalled his dirty hands on her boobs and butt, she had suddenly begun to flush all of a sudden¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess shook off her thoughts. She had also remembered that she was caught in her actual form as she setup the illusionary array to confuse Ji Yuan and his party by slowing them down as much as possible. After that, she had attacked Ji Yuan and had lost her memory. Only after entering the Dream Trial did she manage to regain her memories as her cultivation soul sea began to stabilize again.

    When she had lost her memories, she had remembered clinging onto Ji Yuan and that he had once again rubbed his dirty hands on her¡­

    Finally she said, "You are not fit to know my name. Consider your lucky stars that your life is being spared¡­for the time being."

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly at that.

    The Great Beyond Goddess added, "Follow me out of the trial and don''t you mention what has happened inside for you and our encounter here. Should I happen to hear you mentioning anything about me, I shall kill you and yourpanions immediately. We shall carry our little pretense outside but this time, you are to be my ve."

    This caused Ji Yuan to smile even more bitterly¡­

    She turned to stare intently at Ji Yuan, "Do you or do you not understand what I''ve mean?"

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently, "Well¡­I have caused you to lose your memories once¡­I can defeat you once again¡­"

    "What did you just say?" The Great Beyond Goddess lifted her eyes to dare Ji Yuan to speak in a much louder tone.<sub> </sub>

    She had definitely heard Ji Yuan. After all, she could see and hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts in his soul sea except that he did not know about it.

    Ji Yuan began to murmur even more softly before he answered awkwardly, "I am just wondering what my S Rank Reward is."

    The Great Beyond Goddess disyed a smile, "You shall get none. Your greatest reward is the fact that I''ve chosen to spare you."

    The Trial Spirit was about to say something but after seeing the stares of the Great Beyond Goddess, she quickly kept quiet. After all, in the imposing presence of the Great Beyond Goddess, she did not even dare to even whimper.

    The Great Beyond Goddess took a meaning nce at Ji Yuan before she sighed quietly to herself; of course she was not serious about killing Ji Yuan. After all, killing Ji Yuan was the same as killing herself because she was drawing upon Ji Yuan''s spiritual soul sea. Naturally she could not really die but she would be severing a bond to the Celestial Realm.

    So this is the Celestial Realm and its many trials? All these spiritual energies here that are once created by me?

    The Trial Spirit summoned another portal as she said quietly, "This portal will lead you to the outside. Congrats on passing this trial to obtain the Key of Righteous. Very soon, you will soon be able to enter the final trial."

    Ji Yuan took a reluctant look at the portal as he began to walk toward it, grumbling unhappily. "My S Rank reward¡­"

    And secretly he was anxious for the safety of his party. I am now a hostage¡­how do I tell them to get as far away as me as possible? I am in a terrible mess now and I can''t even remember how I offend this immortal cultivator¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess lifted her fingers as she produced a Key of Righteous. With a soft smile to herself she said, "I am the goddess of all the goddesses. Do I even need to key to go to the next trial?"

    Before Ji Yuan had entered through the portal, she said gently behind him. "Your Queen demands your absolute loyalty."

    Ji Yuan groaned back immediately, "What am I? Your manservant?"

    The Great Beyond Goddessughed softly, "You''re definitely not my King."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    As Ji Yuan entered through the portal, the Great Beyond Goddess said coolly to herself with some pride. "He does have the most charming face in all the divine realms that I''ve created. It is no wonder all these maidens are falling in love left and right, no thanks to Xiang Li as well. Unfortunately, his cultivation and character is whollycking."

    Behind her, the Trial Spirit bowed respectfully to send off the Great Beyond Goddess. However she was soon startled that the Great Beyond Goddess was still standing in the same spot so she took a curious look...

    The Great Beyond Goddess merely said nonchntly, "Surrender the S Tier reward to me instead."

    The Trial Spirit: ...

 Chapter 453 Partings

    When Ji Yuan had exited the trial, a red portal had appeared in front of him. Obviously only a cultivator with the Key of Righteous would be able to enter into this portal.

    He was soon joined by Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi; they had all obtained the Key of Righteous.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had also appeared next to him and she was still clinging onto him but this time Ji Yuan did not dare to touch her. In fact, he was extremely ufortable next to her!

    But he had to pretended otherwise or ''he will be killed'' by her.

    He was soon joined by Mo Bei, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing. Unfortunately, they had all failed the trial and failed to obtain the Key of Righteous; they had the most downcast face.

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly as he tried tofort them, "We are already on the final floor of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Soon, we will be in the final trial and will be able to meet again."

    Shui Xisi was in disbelief as she muttered, "I don''t believe it. How can I fail this trial?"

    She was the daughter of the heavens and her talents were boundless; she simply refused to believe that she had failed the trial.

    Ji Yuan could only sigh in front of her as he said, "This trial is really hard. I''ve almost failed as well. This trial is actually impossible to pass."

    Mo Bei totally agreed as he mmed his fists, "This trial is simply too hard!"

    Little Princess shrugged her shoulders, "I am never a righteous cultivator to begin with anyway. Naturally it is impossible for me to pass this trial. I just can''t figure why I''ve failed though. I try to be as righteous as possible."

    She took a quiet look at Ling Feiyue who had passed the trial. Even though Ling Feiyue was an unorthodox cultivator but she had never done a single unorthodox deed and instead she had roamed the orthodox fraternity to right injustice with another identity.

    Yun Chi said nonchntly, "You need to look beyond the trial. On the surface, the trial appears to be righteous and you seem to be able to pass by following the wishes of the majority but this is actually a trap. I''ve barely passed the trial myself."

    Feng Minyue nodded, "I agree. I don''t think I have a good result for my first trial. It is only during my second trial that I''ve discovered that something seems to be amiss. As a matter of fact, I''ve found myself making some very hard decisions. This trial is really not easy at all."

    Yu Jingjing had a tear expression as she muttered, "I can''t believe my results¡­"

    She had a good result on her previous trial on the final floor and she had helped everyone to pass their trial. But now she had such a miserable result¡­

    Ji Yuan¡­

    She had turned to stare tearfully at Ji Yuan as she muttered his name silently. She just did not want to be separated from him in this trial. It just grieved her heart so much¡­

    Ji Yuan tried to force out a smile as he bitterly said, "Nevertheless this will be a short parting and I can''t forget my mission of obtaining the artifact core of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    He turned to look at Yun Chi who remained nonchnt. This was her mission as well.

    But to Yun Chi, things seemed to have changed now¡­

    Feng Minyue said quietly, "Although some of us have failed the trial but this doesn''t mean that those who have failed are unable to continue."

    Yu Jingjing asked with a stammering voice, "What do you mean?"

    Feng Minyue brushed aside her beautiful hair and softly said, "This is just like the other trials on the lower levels. If you have failed the trial, it doesn''t mean you are unable to proceed further. All you need is to find another portal on the final floor of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth and obtain the Key of Righteous. Then you can continue onward to the final trial."

    Mo Bei mmed his fist, "That is right! I''ve entered into the panic mode too early!"

    Feng Minyue nodded, "The other cultivators will all be looking for the same golden portal as well. We are not just the only cultivators who are trying to vie for the ultimatepletion of the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth. Only your determination will get you toplete the trial in time. Instead ofining, why don''t you setoff immediately to look for the golden portals instead?"

    Little Princess nodded, "Although every trial is different but thanks for the tips that are given to us, this time round, we may be able to obtain the Key of Righteous."

    Ji Yuan nodded with a smile, "This is only a temporary parting. We will surely meet again very soon."

    Yu Jingjing nodded quietly, "We will surely obtain the Key of Righteous and to join you inside the red portal for the final trial."

    "Definitely." Ji Yuan forced out a smile. "So. let''s hurry."

    Although Ji Yuan was sad to part with some of hispanions but he was also d. It was not because they slowed him down but he was like a walking time bomb in thepany of the beautiful maiden goddess cultivator.

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not say anything behind her veil. Although she could summon the golden portals anytime but she did not disy her cultivation prowess. As a matter of fact, she could even produce the Key of Righteous for everyone anytime she had wanted to but she had chosen to keep this a secret. After all, she was role ying an immortal cultivator that had lost her memories in front of everyone.

    In this party, only Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were a threat and she knew that Yun Chi was suspicious of her even though she did not disy it.

    Yun Chi was ever disying a nonchnt look but she was wary of this new joiner. It was because even though she had lost her memory but she was extremely powerful cultivator!

    How could there be a cultivator that was seemingly on par and even be stronger than her in the Celestial Realm?

    Yun Chi had tried to peek into her cultivation soul sea multiple times but she failed to read past the Great Beyond Goddess'' profound animus.

    Just how strong was she?

    If she was really so strong, why had she seemed to exhaust her cultivation strength so quickly?

    This was a mystery to Yun Chi.

    Naturally the Great Beyond Goddess would not tell her that she was sharing the same cultivation soul sea as Ji Yuan.

    The same went for Bai Qianfeng as well; she was quietly observing the Great Beyond Goddess and she was quietier as usual.

    Poor Ji Yuan was left to wonder inside his mind if the Great Beyond Goddess had some cultivation power to exhaust his cultivation energy. Naturally the Great Beyond Goddess would not tell him that they were sharing from the same source.

    Ji Yuan''s cultivation soul sea was too little to maintain the tenth immortal positioning cultivation strength of the Great Beyond Goddess, naturally.

    Every time the Great Beyond Goddess blocked Ji Yuan''s attack or injured Ji Yuan, she would consume Ji Yuan''s cultivation energy. That was the reason why Ji Yuan felt really weak against her.

    The Great Beyond Goddess naturally know that Ji Yuan was secretly scheming against her in his soul sea by consulting with Xiang Li and Anyang for she could listen into his soul sea; she could only smile happily at every one of his futile silly oues naturally.

    Yu Jingjing took a final look at Ji Yuan before she said tearfully, "My lord Ji Yuan, I hope to see you soon enough."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "We will. Who knows if we can see each other in the next moment again? Haha."

    Yu Jingjing nodded. Meeting Ji Yuan was the happiest moment of her life and she regretted her past disdainful attitude toward him.<sub> </sub>

    She said meaningfully and with great reluctant, "My lord, you must be the son of the heavens. Even though I do not know your background well but I can tell that you must be someone really very important in your sect."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "You are not wrong about this. In fact, I am the sect grandmaster. Haha."

    Yu Jingjing was delighted when she had heard this. "That is wonderful to hear. You are someone in great position of power. The mountains that you are cultivating upon must also be a great cultivation holynd. I can now imagine how rich is the cultivation spiritual seas in your mountain. I hope to join you there one day."

    <o>,m Ji Yuan weakly smile, "Of course you will. Didn''t I already given you an artifact that can bond you to my Deste Celestial Fraternity?"</o>

    But don''t visit my mountains please.

    It was because Ji Yuan''s sect happened to be in one of the poorest regions in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. There were no spiritual seas except for lots of deste monsters. That was another reason why he did not stay there often after he had reached the fourth realm cultivation and almost disappeared when he was at the fifth realm golden celestial cultivation.

    Little Princess and Ling Feiyue could not help giggling when they had heard Yu Jingjing, "His ce has plenty of cultivation resources. Be sure to go there someday."

    Ji Yuan had a most ugly look when he had heard them as he bitterly said, "Sure. Sure."

    He thought: They mean, cultivation resources = deste monsters.

    Yu Jingjing lit a smile as she looked at Ling Feiyue and Little Princess, "As his consorts and my good sisters here, I hope to visit you as well."

    Little Princess gave an awkward smile; she had no cultivation mountains anymore¡­

    Ling Feiyue only smiled shyly as she lowered her head, "Ji Yuan has other consorts¡­"

    Yu Jingjing nodded and she smiled undeterred, "With his talent, naturally he will have many consorts."

    Shui Xisi could not resist a chuckle from the sideway, "With his looks, you mean?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess and Yun Chi could not resist a tiny movement from their bodies as they overheard Shui Xisi.

    Even Feng Minyue could not resist saying, "He is not handsome at all."

    Mo Bei said aloud, "He is definitely not handsome at all and most importantly, he has no beard at all!"

    However, none of the maidens actually agreed with him.

    Shui Xisi ignored Mo Bei and said to Yu Jingjing, "My good sister,e to my cultivation mountain one day. My sect is one of the three sacred ces in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. It is definitely better than Ji Yuan''s cultivation mountains."

    Yu Jingjing was startled and in fact shock, "You don''t stay together?"

    After all, she had overheard them making love more than once and she had always thought of them as a couple.

    Shui Xisi smiled awkwardly. How could she tell Yu Jingjing that they were actually having an ''affair''?

    "Well¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted awkwardly, "Well, I have many consorts and some of them are their own sect grandmasters. So we don''t really stay together. Haha."

    Shui Xisi took an awkward look at Ji Yuan, "Who is your consort? Are we even married?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I can only say that Matriarch Shui Xisi is a little loose¡­"

    *Kick*

    Shui Xisi had suddenly kicked Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan wasughing.

    If it was not for the Great Beyond Goddess that was next to Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi would have kicked and pped him several times more.

    Ling Feiyue muttered speechlessly, "These two are always not honest with themselves¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly jokingly said, "Why don''t I enter this red portal first while the rest of you form a part to look for the golden portal instead? Haha¡­"

    "No and why?" Yun Chi said all of a sudden, startling the maidens.

    Some of the maidens were quite surprised that Ji Yuan had suggested so.

    Only Yun Chi and Feng Minyue could guess the reason why.

    Feng Minyue was smarter than most but she had quietly suppressed her thoughts about the immortal cultivator that was next to Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi naturally knows that Ji Yuan was subtly trying to warn them but some how she wanted to challenge the immortal cultivator.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly stroke Ji Yuan''s face with a curtsy smile, "Why, you want to get rid of them and be with me alone?"

    Mo Bei did not know of the reason and he could not resist a frustrated voice, "Young man, this is too much! You are too lecherous to be forgiven!"

    Ji Yuan could onlyugh bitterly, "It is only a suggestion. Haha¡­"

    Mo Bei hummed coldly, "It has better be!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he said, "It is time for us to part ways."

    Yu Jingjing nodded sorrowfully as Little Princess, Mo Bei and Shui Xisi stood grimly behind her.

    Ji Yuan took a final look at Yu Jingjing, Little Princess and Shui Xisi before saying, "I hope that we will meet really soon."

    With that, he had entered the red portal with the Great Beyond Goddess, Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue.

    Shui Xisi sighed softly before she smiled at Yu Jingjing, "You know. There is something that I wish to inform you first. Things are actually not that peaceful in the Deste Celestial Fraternity..."

    This surprised Yu Jingjing a little, "Exin?"

    Little Princess took the opportunity to say, "We are at war there..."

 Chapter 454 Prelude To The Final Trial (1)

    When Ji Yuan, the Great Beyond Goddess, Ling Feiyue, Yun Chi and Feng Minyue had entered through the red portal, they had found themselves overlooking a vast canyon.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "So where are we? Where is the final trial? Or are we here already?"

    It did not take long for his question to be answered.

    A feminine spiritual voice soon murmured from the skies, "Wee to the final trial. You are among the very first to have arrived. The trial will only open once three thousand cultivators have arrived."

    "What? We are not allowed to enter the final trial yet?!" Ji Yuan was astonished almost to the point of speechlessness.

    The same voice answered, "Not yet. You have to wait a little longer first."

    Ji Yuan asked ruefully, "What if there are never three thousand cultivators in the first ce?"

    "Then the trial will not open. You will all be expulsed from the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth when the time limit is reached."

    Ji Yuan was taken aback, "You are not joking with me, right?!"

    Feng Minyue said quietly, "It is to be expected. This is something that I want to tell you for some time. Currently, no one has everpleted the final trial. To be allowed into the final trial is also considered to be apletion of the trial itself."

    Among everyone here, only Feng Minyue had ovee the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. The rest of them were all first timers.

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he blinked his eyes, "What??"

    Feng Minyue said nonchntly, "Usually the final trial will be opened eventually. It is just a matter of time. However, it is nearly impossible to pass the final trial for there is no criteria."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "There is no criteria?"

    Feng Minyue nodded, "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan asked again, "Even so, how is it possible to gather three thousand cultivators for the trial?"

    Feng Mingyue smiled, "There are more than three hundred thousand golden celestials from all over the Celestial Realm. Many of them are the geniuses of their fraternity. We are actually not special and they will soon arrive. I actually did not expect that we will be among the very first."

    Then she pointed at the canyons in front of her, "These canyons may well hide a couple of cultivators too."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he asked another question, "If there is no criteria then how do we obtain the artefect core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Feng Minyue exined, "The final trial is for cultivators to find extreme profound treasures and translucence cultivation arts. It is usually a never endingndscape of hidden cultivationnds. In all my previous attempts inside the final trial, I''ve never heard that there is a way to obtain the artifact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as he rolled his eyes, "You are not joking with me, right?"

    Feng Minyue looked at him intently, "Do you think that I am joking with you?"

    p Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Well no¡­ but¡­"</anda>

    He began to sign softly¡­

    This was thest month already¡­

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia) had told him to stop the Evil Cultivation Pce from obtaining the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth while inside but she had never told him the real reason why. (See Chapter 194).

    So he turned to look at Yun Chi for an answer.

    Yun Chi took a nce at Ji Yuan before taking a nce at Bai Qianfeng.

    But in the end, she was quiet.

    This caused Ji Yuan to smile weakly but he did not fault her because he knew that this was an inconvenient time and he had no idea if the maiden goddess next to him was an enemy or a friend. But on all appearances, she was more like an enemy.

    This was the same thought that Yun Chi had as well. Also except for Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng, no one else knew that she was the Death God Mingwang.

    Even though Yun Chi had betrayed the Great Demon God and his schemes and had even carried Ji Yuan''s daughter in her womb, she was still hesitating.

    Her unborn daughter so happened to kick a little fuss at this time as she asked sweetly inside her womb, "Mama, why papa seems so distant now? He has not touched you for some time."

    Yun Chi got distracted momentarily as she rubbed her slim belly, "My child, papa is really busy nowadays."

    "You are not lying right, mama? Papa has so many sweethearts around him. Mama must be sad." The unborn daughter whimpered softly inside Yun Chi''s soul sea.

    Yun Chi onlyughed softly in her spiritual soul sea, "Hah, no! Your mama is really proud of you and can''t wait for you to be born. Moreover I have just epted a new disciple and her name is Qianfeng. Together, we will defeat the Great Demon God together."

    "If mama is not angry with papa then why don''t you answer papa?"

    Yun Chi answered emotionlessly, "Hmm, I am just cautious about the maiden that is constantly clinging onto your papa. She is dangerous."

    "Mama can''t defeat her? She is¡­stronger than mama?"

    Yun Chi was forced to admit, "She seems to be and she is really mysterious. Her profound strength is truly terrifying."<sub> </sub>

    But she quickly added with a smile, "Not to worry. I am not afraid of her."

    Then she tapped her belly lightly, "Protecting my child is my first priority now¡­"

    In all the millions of creation, no True Gods had never had a child. By some miracle, she was now expecting. This had totallye at a huge surprise to her and for a while, she did not know how to coup with it. Also how did she fall into Ji Yuan''s charms so easily?

    Until today, she still found it hard to believe how she had fallen into Ji Yuan''s hands. Even though she had run millions of simtions in her mind, she still find Ji Yuan''s charms irresistible. And this caused her to sigh softly.

    After a while, she gathered a divine whisper to transmit into Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Although it may be difficult to obtain the artifact core but for a True Goddess such as me, I can actually pinpoint its exact location."

    Ji Yuan was startled to hear Yun Chi''s voice in his soul sea but he was also excited, "Yun Chi, I can actually hear you? Xiang Li, Anyang, can you hear Yun Chi''s voice too?"

    Xiang Li was delighted in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she pped, "Yes I can!"

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou nodded as well, "I can hear Maiden Yun Chi''s voice¡­"

    Yun Chi sighed softly before she said, "For thousands of years, we have secretly infiltrated your realm which is the Celestial Realm. You should know that for immortals to go to the Celestial Realm, our cultivation strength will be suppressed to the peaked seventh rank. Even True God and Goddesses have no exception though it is quite hard for even one of your peaked seventh rank golden saints to even defeat us on even ground."

    Ji Yuan agreed in his soul sea even though he had no idea why Yun Chi was suddenly telling him this.

    Yun Chi continued, "It will take us thousands of years to restore to the Ninth Immortal Positioning but we are ever patience for time has no real meaning for our kind. We have tricked the Deste Immortals into attacking the Pangu Immortals via their Ancient Fortress and promising aid to their causes. It is but a lie. We have never helped but torn through into the Celestial Realm to hide our presence. For thousands of years, the Pangu Immortals have been looking for us everywhere but it has always been futile. Then we cut off the only tunnel that can link the upper Immortal Realm to the Celestial Realm, preventing the Pangu Immortals from descending. Now we are the only supreme beings in the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan said, "Then you must have paid a heavy price for sealing the tunnel, am I right?"

    Yun Chi did not disagree, "Indeed you are right. It is a very, very heavy price in cultivation strength from the three of us but one that we are willing to pay nevertheless. That is why we need the energy from the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to restore some of our cultivation strength. As you have noticed, this Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth itself is an immortal spiritual artefact and defies thews of the Celestial Realm. It is indeed the energy that we have craved."

    "Only some?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Yun Chi said, "Our cultivation strength is still being suppressed by thews of the Celestial Realm. We have restored our cultivation strength, only to use up our Ninth Immortal cultivation strength to close the immortal realm tunnel for a short period of time."

    Then she mused, "Do you think that the Great Demon God will allow me to swallow up the energy from the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth all by myself? Sess or failure, the Great Demon God has already taken the worse case by calction by itself."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Then your mission is irreverent to your cause?"

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "I will say that even if I were to swallow the energy from the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, I am still not strong enough to defeat the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now, "So the Great Demon God is really so strong?"

    "Yes¡­" Yun Chi was forced to agree. "I am actually the weakest of the three. Moreover I am expecting now so you can expect my cultivation strength to decrease further. It is all thanks to you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yun Chi, you can still joke at this time. We need to defeat the Great Demon God."

    Suddenly Ji Yuan began to pause for awhile to ponder over Yun Chi''s words. Then he asked with a growl, "That is weird. Since the Great Demon Lord has sent you here then what is he doing in his hideout?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "You didn''t figure it out yet?"

    "What?" Ji Yuan was perplexed.

    "There are only two things that can arouse the interest of the Great Demon God. One is your Jiajia¡­"

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "Then Jiajia is in danger?! What am I doing here for?!"

    "She is stronger than you think she is. You are of no help to her outside." Yun Chi said matter of fact.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Surely not?

    Yun Chi smiled, "Maybe you do stand a little chance now with your spirit animus that can rise your immortal positioning to the eighth. But before that, I can''t view you as a serious threat."

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly in his soul sea, "Yun Chi, why are you so frank with me¡­" But he quickly asked, "So what is the second thing that the Great Demon God desires?"

    Yun Chi coolly said, "You should know. She is your Little Princess. On the surface, it is the Evil Cultivation Master that seems to nurture Little Princess to be his living furnace but actually he did it unknowingly for the Great Demon God."

    "This, you are wrong." Ji Yuan weakly answered. "How should I know about this. I am not such a great schemer like your kind."

    Yun Chiughed softly, "How would you not know? You have taken her primeval yin away before she is ready to be a living furnace. My other mission is to take her away if she is in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I haven''tint that my primeval yang was taken away from me just like that by her in the past¡­"

    "You are too shameless." Yun Chi interrupted him with a soft chuckle.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Xiang Li and Anyang, the Great Beyond Goddess had overheard their conversations and she was quietly saying to herself, "How so interesting¡­"

 Chapter 455 Prelude To The Final Trial (2)

    A day or two had gone by, a meditating Ji Yuan began to wonder how vast the entire canyons and valleys were in front of him. He still had not seen a single cultivator yet!

    The Great Beyond Goddess was also meditating beside him, though not as close to him as previously especially since she had regained her memories.

    It was a huge relief to Ji Yuan nevertheless. However the Great Beyond Goddess still kept a close eye on him and preventing Ji Yuan from directlymunicating with Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue.

    p Yun Chi appeared not to mind as she focused on giving Bai Qianfeng her cultivation tips. She needed time to do so and this was a golden opportunity. However she had to do so via the soul sea and this consumed her essence. But this was a necessity that she had to do.</anda>

    Bai Qianfeng could only sigh quietly and asked Yun Chi, "Are we a match of this immortal cultivator? Do you have the confidence to beat her a second time?"

    Yun Chi replied matter of fact in secret, "I do not know. I have to divert a great deal of my profound strength to protect my unborn child. If I am in my peak, this will be hard to say."

    Bai Qianfeng mused weakly, "The answer is the ''if'' and there is no ''if''."

    Yun Chi answered coolly, "That is why I am training you, right?"

    Bai Qianfeng could only say with some resign, "I am the Abyssal Null Goddess, a Great Deste Goddess. You are a Great Deste Goddess and also a True Goddess of the Deste Realm but yet the two of usbined, we are still unable to beat her. Just who is she?"

    Yun Chi answered with a sigh, "This is the answer that I am trying to figure out. Maybe she is the Spirit Artefact of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she knows that we are trying to obtain her. Who knows. But this is the answer that I am trying to know. But I won''t move against her just yet until I have the confidence or she has chosen to break this secret truce."

    Bai Qianfeng could only acknowledge it for the time being as she took a surrender look at Ji Yuan¡­

    Ling Feiyue was no pushover however. She was simply not as quiet as Feng Minyue, Yun Chi or Bai Qianfeng!

    Therefore she had approached the mysterious maiden immortal cultivator with some tenacity as she hummed coldly, "Ji Yuan is my Lord Consort, officially. If you have any shame at all, you should move aside and know what is best for you!"

    Her actions caused Ji Yuan and Yun Chi to be startled for her for Ling Feiyue had not felt the full strength of this mysterious maiden immortal cultivator!

    Ji Yuan immediately said, "Feiyue, no¡­"

    "You like her?" Ling Feiyue could only say with some disgust.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately awkwardly, "Of course not! Why should I be?"

    Ling Feiyue scoffed softly, "What a heartless man. You have forgotten how you have groped all over her so fast."

    Ji Yuan was immediately feeling awkward, "Haha¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess had immediately rose to her feet and with a cold alluring smirk, said. "You have dared to raise your voice against this great goddess?"

    Ling Feiyue answered coldly, "Indeed. Why not?"

    The Great Beyond Goddessughed before she pointed at Ling Feiyue, "In the entire party, you are the weakest!"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    This immediately got on Ling Feiyue''s soft nerve and she had suddenly unsheathed her divine sword!

    She shouted softly, "You are courting your own death!"

    Although she was fast but Ji Yuan was even faster and he had caught hold of her wrist.

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "Enough is enough. Feiyue, you don''t have to raise your sword against her."

    Ling Feiyue truly felt indignant and this was the very first time she had been this upset!

    While Ji Yuan appeared to beposed on the outside, he was smiling really bitterly inside as he said to himself. "Feiyue, this is for your own good. We are not her match at all! I myself is cracking my brain to discover her weakness. Until we truly know who she is, we must be patience!"

    As he did not know any divine transmission unlike Yun Chi, he naturally did not know how to transmit this message to her so he had to warn her off verbally.

    He was actually hoping that Yun Chi would intercession on his behalf and exined it.

    However Yun Chi was in deep divine transmission with Bai Qianfeng and also she could not be bothered wasting her essence on this petty meddle¡­

    Ling Feiyue was shocked beyond belief, "You are actually taking her side?!"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Of course I am¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess naturally could hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts in his soul sea and she was naturally delighted.<sub> </sub>

    Xiang Li was muttering to Anyang, "Brother Ji Yuan is too cruel toward Sister Feiyue¡­"

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan''s left hand had pped the cheek of the Great Beyond Goddess, stunning her; she simply did not see thising!

    In that one brief moment Ji Yuan had pped her while he was talking to Ling Feiyue.

    Even Ling Feiyue was stunned!

    This immediately aroused Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng attention as well!

    The Great Beyond Goddess stared at Ji Yuan with a stunned look; when and how did he manage to p her?!

    Feng Minyue who was meditating quietly was also startled¡­

    Ji Yuan promptly said to the Great Beyond Goddess, "Ling Feiyue is my woman and consort. Only I can raise my voice against her, not you. If you want to take her out then you have to take me out first. I hope that I''ve made myself very clear to you."

    The Great Beyond Goddess touched her burning face and she did not know how to react¡­

    She did not see this attacking because Ji Yuan had his back against her and moreover he did not even give a conscious thought in his soul sea beforehand. She was truly taken by surprise by this attack.

    But this was not the reason.

    Ji Yuan''s p had simplye too fast. Although the p was not really painful but it was a speed that broke through her defense at that single moment!

    As for Ji Yuan, he knew that he was fast but he had not expected that he would be able to p the maiden goddess. He had actually did it without thinking. Because he had so much indignant inside him, he had suddenly pped the Great Beyond Goddess unconsciously because Ling Feiyue who was his woman, had been insulted right in front of him!

    Ji Yuan was really never a gentleman to begin with in front of any beautiful maidens or goddesses!

    Ling Feiyue was so startled that she immediately said, "Ji Yuan, don''t be upset at me. I am just teasing¡­with you¡­"

    She had thought that Ji Yuan was upset with her as well and that he would p her next!

    Ji Yuan muttered something as he pretended to storm off in rage; I am screwed!

    He literally walked past the Great Beyond Goddess and Ling Feiyue before he grabbed Feng Minyue by her wrist, "Maiden Feng, let''s talk a walk together¡­"

    Feng Minyue was too startled to react and she began to be led by Ji Yuan¡­

    Although no one could hear Ji Yuan''s muttering but the Great Beyond Goddess certainly could and it came as a total surprise to her¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually muttering that he should have kept the secret of his left hand in total secret!

    The Great Beyond Goddess looked into his memories and she could see that Ji Yuan was back to the Orthodox Sword Sect and he was training Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    In the distorted scene, Ji Yuan had purposely hint to Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan that he was training his new trump card and that he was actually training his left hand. When they had caught sight of his new trump, he would purposely stop training his left hand.

    This was actually his ploy!

    He had wanted to let them to think that he was training his left hand to be as effective as his right hand in order to fool his enemy one day.

    But the truth was, Ji Yuan had always been a left hand and that his left hand was several times faster than his right hand!

    So when Ji Yuan had pped the Great Beyond Goddess, he was actually using his left hand unconsciously!

    This was actually Ji Yuan''s ultimate trump card as he did not want the others to know how fast he truly was!

    Another distorted scene soon caused the Great Beyond Goddess to flush and she had quickly pulled herself away from Ji Yuan''s memories; she saw Shangguan Yan making a deep sigh in secret and she was muttering, "Old Master must be training his left hand to pull panties¡­"

    Ji Yuan in that scene could naturally hear Shangguan Yan but he had pretended he was hard on hearing from so far away and he was cursing softly, "Am your old master such a dirty old man? Yan''Er,ter I am going to punish you and I won''t tell you a reason for this! This is for your own good!"

    But he was soon sighing, "Yan''Er, this is for your own good. Our cultivation resources are limited and even our mountains are poor in spiritual energies. If I don''t train you to be better and a suspicious heart, how can you fare better than all the same level cultivators? I hope that you know that this is for your own good..."

    After the Great Beyond Goddess pulled herself from Ji Yuan''s spatial memories, she had a terrible flush and quickly turned around to quietly meditate.

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and even Ling Feiyue were all quite surprised by her reactions as they had expected a fight to be started at any time.

    The Great Beyond Goddess muttered to herself, "I must use my divine sense to track this insolent Ji Yuan so that he won''t give me any surprises¡­"

    But actually when she had retrieved the memories of Shangguan Yan mentioning that Ji Yuan''s left hand was only good for pulling panties and undies, her mind was flooded by scenes of Ji Yuan using his left hand to do the exact same deed to Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Ling Tianshui and quite a few others¡­

    She was flushing with great embarrassment as she pulled herself from all these ''wicked memories''.

 Chapter 456 Prelude To The Final Trial (3)

    Ji Yuan had pulled Feng Minyue away to a distant valley, causing her to be surprised by his actions.

    Feng Minyue asked with a startled voice, "You''re not anxious for them? That immortal cultivator is dangerous!"

    Ji Yuan answered solemnly, "With our cultivation level, we can easily return to our camp. Yun Chi and Qianfeng won''t give up without a fight."

    Feng Minyue gasped after a throbbing Ji Yuan, "This is too reckless. We got to stop. We mustn''t go too far away¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped as well as he turned to look at Feng Minyue, "You are also wary of her?"

    Feng Minyue nodded quietly. "After you hadpleted yourst trial, she did not seem to be closer to you anymore. At least¡­"

    She began to hesitate as she pondered for words. She had wanted to say that the beautiful maiden immortal was no longer rubbing her bosoms on Ji Yuan but she thought that this was too crude so she said instead, "At least she doesn''t look to be as close to you as before. She has regained her memory?"

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly, "And she will kill me if anyone else knows about this."

    Feng Minyue returned a startled look, "And you are telling me?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "This is my only option of letting you know about it. But luckily you are already wary of her. We need a n to bust her¡­"

    Xiang Li immediately echoed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, "Big Brother, you mean to bang her?"

    Anyang could not resist a chuckle¡­

    Ji Yuan growled as he ignored Xiang Li but he muttered to her nevertheless: Xiang Li, I am having a serious life and death conversation with Maiden Feng or we will all be dead tomorrow.

    Anyang could not resist adding: Maybe not dead by tomorrow but you may not know how you are going to die at any time.

    Ji Yuan: ..

    Right¡­

    But he quickly turned his attention back to Feng Minyue for Xiang Li and Anyang were a distraction and they had almost nothing important to contribute most of the time¡­

    "And what do you propose?" Feng Minyue asked earnestly.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I canbine my sword art with Feiyue but I am not sure if that is enough."

    Feng Minyue asked softly, "Can''t you use the same technique on her again?"

    Ji Yuan returned several more sighs, "That is the problem! I don''t know if I will seed again. For some unknown reasons, she seems to have the ability to drain my cultivation energy and I find my cultivation strength to be much lower than usual. If I can use my most powerful sword art three times previously, now I can only use them only once!"

    Feng Minyue was truly startled, "Only once? Meaning that you can only have one time to seed?"

    Ji Yuan nodded and he looked a little pitiful.

    Feng Minyue was almost very sorry to hear it from him¡­

    Unknown to Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue, their conversations were in fact overheard by the Great Beyond Goddess for she dwelled inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was indignant: This man never keeps his promise! Didn''t he promise ne to keep my awakening a secret?!

    She was also groaning awkwardly at the same time: Will he tells the others how he had grabbed me¡­

    Naturally Ji Yuan would not. He may not be a gentleman but he had not reached the level of despicable yet. All his deeds were for his own pure enjoyment only.

    Feng Minyue sighed weakly, "We are now weaker in numbers. If Shui Xisi is here then we will stand a higher chance."

    Ji Yuan was also sighing weakly, "Sisi is truly a strong cultivator but why did she have to fail her trial?"

    Feng Minyue answered weakly, "She is the daughter of the heavens. She will surely ovee her trial the next time. 70 points isn''t too hard."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Haha¡­"

    He was actually thinking of something else. Sisi being a ''strong'' cultivator mean that she was really good in their fights in the bed chamber¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess could not resist a woeful reply: He is toome. Toome!

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan realized something and he had suddenly turned to corner Feng Minyue, "Maiden Feng, do you realize something?"

    "What is it?" Feng Minyue asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before he said, "That you and I are finally alone¡­" He didn''t finished his words but purposely allowed it to linger instead.

    Feng Minyue was gasping too¡­<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "It is so hard to be alone with you."

    Feng Minyue turned her head away shyly, "You''ve too many beautiful maidens around you. That is why. You don''t need me at all."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "That is not true at all. You should know how I feel toward you."

    Feng Minyue shook her head, "No, I do not know how you feel toward me nor do I care for it¡­"

    Ji Yuan was too thick skin to be deterred and moreover he knew how Maiden Feng had felt toward him.

    Instead he asked earnest and in a soft voice, "Do you really not know how I feel toward you all this while? You have the most fragrant scent among all the maidens and the most refined of them all. I am really attracted toward you from the very first."

    Then he asked, "If you do not like me then why did you kiss me after Yu Jingjing had kissed me? You just ran away that day without giving me any exnation or do you want me to misunderstand forever?"

    Feng Minyue looked at him intently into his golden eyes but barely a few secondster, her defenses had broken and she lowered her golden eyes shyly. "You are truly a rascal like what Mo Bei had said. You should know how I feel about you."

    That day, his actions and music had touched her. She knew that she could not be able from Ji Yuan''s clutches ever since that fateful day¡­

    So she finally mustered her courage once more as she looked up into Ji Yuan''s golden eyes once more before tiptoeing to kiss Ji Yuan once more.

    This was all the courage that she could muster!

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was also delighted. He did not waste time in wrapping his hands around Feng Minyue!

    Xiang Li was covering her hands but she was staring with delight through the many holes in her fingers¡­

    Anyang was stunned¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess could not pull herself away from Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she watched¡­

    Ji Yuan began to kiss Feng Minyue fervently and his hands were moving all over her body¡­

    He was hot and unstoppable now!

    Feng Minyue was startled when Ji Yuan had moved his hands into her robe and into her bodice; he was literally caressing and fondling her bosoms. And moreover Ji Yuan''s hands were also moving underneath her panties and he was literally touching her most sensual part.

    "Ji Yuan, no¡­ we are in public¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was unstoppable now and he did not know how to stop; his mind was in a nk now¡­

    Xiang Li was shouting in Ji Yuan''s soul sea now: Yes! Yes! Yes!

    This was the very first time that the Great Beyond Goddess had witnessed such a thing and she was quite startled that it was slightly different from Ji Yuan''s memories.

    While she had heard Feng Minyue telling Ji Yuan to stop, what she had actually heard in Ji Yuan''s head was Feng Minyue him not to stop. That immediately gave him all the courage that he could muster.

    It began to dawn upon the Great Beyond Goddess that Xiang Li was Ji Yuan''s heart demon and that she had been influencing him rather badly all this while.

    In fact, she was rather horrified that her pure Xiang Li had such a fetish¡­

    By now Ji Yuan had stripped Feng Minyue down to her undies before he pulled down her panties. He began to whisper to her as he pressed down onto her naked body, "Maiden Feng, you are so beautiful¡­"

    He saw that she was moist, both underneath and in her panties¡­

    Feng Minyue was flushing hotly. She knew that Ji Yuan had stripped her and he was staring in all parts of her body but she just did not have the will to resist his charms anymore¡­

    In the end she could only sighed softly as she said quietly, "I have no experience in such matter. You ought to teach me."

    Then she hesitated for a while before she said firmly, her white cheeks turned rosy. "No. Teach me all you can and turn me into your woman. I want you to teach me everything and I want you to teach me how to make love¡­"

    Ji Yuan said gently as he showed her his manhood, "Then the first step I am going to teach you how to lick¡­"

    Feng Minyue nodded and she began to kneel in front of Ji Yuan, "My lord, is this the way."

    Ji Yuan held her soft hair with his heads and said gently as he looked down into her eyes, "Yes this is the way and I want your lips to be onto me. We will finally copte today¡­"

    Behind the valley, loud moaning was suddenly heard. It was because Ji Yuan was full of vigor and he was not a gentleman at all.

    But Ji Yuan did not care for anything in the world now because this was between Maiden Feng and him. No one would know about this today and that gave him the courage.

    Except that he had overlooked that three other maidens were spying upon him. They were Xiang Li, Anyang and the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The Great Beyond Goddess found her heart pacing very quickly as she stared at the ''scene'' that she was witnessing and it was a ''scene'' that she would be witnessing for several hours¡­

 Chapter 457 Prelude To The Final Trial (4)

    When Feng Minyue and Ji Yuan were returning from the valley, back to their camp, they were still holding hands.

    As soon as they caught sight of their camp, they quickly broke loose of each other.

    This however, was not lost on Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue.

    As for the Great Beyond Goddess, she naturally was aware of what was happening but she was ying dumb.

    Feng Minyue was still quietly looking at Ji Yuan. She had so many orgasms that she had actually lost count and this was the very first time that she had orgasm. She felt really embarrassed and chided herself for actually being a hoe.

    In fact, she was quite addicted to the experiences and she could not let go of Ji Yuan¡­

    But in Ji Yuan''s eyes, she was perfect and he liked her. Moreover he had actually conquered his dream girl!

    Xiang Li had to remind him: Big Brother, you have not conquered Jiajia yet!

    Ji Yuan simply brushed Xiang Li aside!

    Ling Feiyue was the first one to greet them as she put on a purposeful smile before grabbing Ji Yuan, "Follow me!"

    Ji Yuan was astonished as he asked Ling Feiyue, "Where are we going?"

    Ling Feiyue answered him with a wink, "You have taken a day stroll with Sister Feng. Now we are going to take a evening stroll together."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he began tough weakly. "Haha¡­next time, next time. I''m a little tired today¡­"

    "Oh? You didn''t seem to do much today, Great Saint Ji Yuan." Ling Feiyue swiftly interrupted him.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I may be a great saint but it doesn''t mean that I am not tired¡­"

    "The two of you seem to be much closer now." Ling Feiyue suddenly suggested.

    JI Yuanughed it off by grabbing Ling Feiyue''s hands, "I am suddenly not tired anymore. Haha¡­"

    Feng Minyue purposely disyed a weak smile, "You should go with Sister Ling and¡­enjoy yourself."

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly giggling delightfully much to the displeasure of Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng who were watching them nearby.

    Ji Yuan purposefully coughed aloud, "Ahem! I am going to do some patrolling nearby. As the only man in the party, I have the duty to patrol day and night to assure the safety of our party against the wicked monstrous geniuses of the Celestial Realm."

    "Well said!" Ling Feiyue had already grabbed Ji Yuan and was pulling him away.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly interrupted them, "The two of you are not going anyway. Stay where you are."

    Ling Feiyue scoffed, "Where we are going is none of your business¡­"

    "Indeed it is none of my business." The Great Beyond Goddess said as she pointed in their opposite direction. "But there is a powerful cultivator that is approaching our way. And to our back, there are another two powerful cultivators. So do you want to leave the party just yet?"

    Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan were both rmed as they tried to look in the direction of where the Great Beyond Goddess was pointing.

    Even Feng Minyue was no exception.

    Bai Qianfeng said all of a sudden, "She is right. There is indeed three cultivatorsing from two directions. They may not know each other but they are certainly aware of us. They are not weak."

    Yun Chi disyed a nonchnt look before adding, "It seems to me that they have a scrying artefact in their hands. Therefore their divine sense to sense cultivators are many times ahead of us."

    Ji Yuan was growling immediately, "It seems that the first cultivator in that direction will be the first to arrive. As for the other two cultivators in that direction, I can''t sense them yet."

    Feng Minyue nodded after she had disyed her divine sense, "He isn''t suppressing his cultivation profound aura. At least that is a good news."

    But Ji Yuan said instead, "We may not know if that is his true cultivation strength either. Therefore we ough to exercise caution!"

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Ji Yuan, aren''t you a little too cautious sometimes? We have Sister Qianfeng here. Do we need to fear anyone? Moreover¡­"

    She had turned to look at Yun Chi and the Great Beyond Goddess, "Moreover¡­we have two monsters here."

    Yun Chi''s upper mask almost fell down before sheposed herself to say with a softugh, "I am not a monster. You mean the other one?"

    <o>,m The Great Beyond Goddess had turned to look at Ji Yuan with a cold smile, "Do I look like a monster in your eyes?"</o>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly¡­

    He had wanted to say that she was a monster in all aspects but he had thought that it was wiser to keep his mouth shut instead.

    However the Great Beyond Goddess knew exactly what he was thinking but she merely smiled.

    It was not long before the lone cultivator had arrived.

    He was a bearded cultivator and had a powerful build. On his back, there was even a heaven-step divine sword!

    Ji Yuan had immediately recognized him as havinging from the Divine Steppe Fraternity, as indicated by his clothing.

    He was all smiles as he disyed a greeting toward this new cultivator, "Fellow Brethren Cultivator, Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity greets you!"

    The Divine Steppe Fraternity was a celestial fraternity that shared the same tradition as the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they all had a beard tradition.

    That was the very reason why Ji Yuan was instantly friendly toward this new stranger!

    But the bearded cultivator growled when he saw Ji Yuan and even gave off a disdainful look when he saw Ling Feiyue. "I am from the Great Martial Sect of the Divine Steppe Fraternity, one of the six major orthodox ns in my celestial fraternity. I do not mix with any unorthodox cultivators or any beardless eunuch."

    Ji Yuan''s expression had suddenly turned ugly, "Who are you saying a beardless eunuch?!"

    Ling Feiyue had also disyed a disdainful countenance as she disliked the self-righteous cultivator the most. So she could not resist fanning the fire, "Dark Lord Ji Yuan, who else but my lord here who can be called a beardless eunuch here?"

    The bearded cultivator immediately stared at Ji Yuan, "So you are also a Dark Lord and her lord. You are an unorthodox cultivator!"

    Ji Yuan answered coldly, "So what if I am? So what if I am not?"

    The bearded cultivator had suddenly disyed his heaven-step divine sword, "While it ismon for all cultivators regardless of alignments to pause in their feuds in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but if my enemy crosses my path, I will not be so kind as to show any mercies."

    Then he turned to look at the rest of Ji Yuan''s party. "Is there any one of you here who is an orthodox cultivator?"

    Feng Minyue smiled coldly, "I am."

    The bearded cultivator immediately smiled as Feng Minyue was really a lofty and alluring maiden, "Maiden, do not fear and stand behind me. I am Du Qingming, a great saint and I can protect you!"

    He had immediately disyed his profound aura to match that of a great saint who was in the initial cultivation realm!

    He was very sure that this maiden would be very impressed by him and even joined hands with him!

    Ji Yuan returned a disinterested look as he said, "Actually I am orthodox cultivator too¡­"

    But before he could finish, Du Qingming had suddenly attacked him with his heaven-step divine sword!

    Ji Yuan growled as he evaded the attack at the same time. "Is this the way of the righteous orthodox cultivators to attack while a person''s guard is down?"

    Du Qingming answered, "Not against an unorthodox cultivator such as you and especially not when I am outnumbered¡­"

    But all of a sudden he had frozen on his spot as Ji Yuan had disyed his peaked great saint profound aura!

    He was three steps ahead of him and their cultivation realm''s disparity was like the heavens and the earth!<sub> </sub>

    Du Qingming was shocked; he had good intelligence about the Deste Celestial Fraternity before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he had not heard that there was an unorthodox peaked great saint in the Deste Celestial Fraternity!

    But he quicklyposed himself; it was because he still had his heaven-step divine sword and his opponent did not seem to have a sword. With his sect''s sword art and heaven-step divine sword, surely he would be able to ovee this power cultivator.

    A battle of two great saints were about to ur and this was going to be really earth shaking!

    Ji Yuan said, "You are a great saint and I am also a great saint. But in terms of cultivation strength, I am above you!"

    Du Qingming nodded coolly, "If you have a single shred of honor then you shall ept my challenge."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes before heughed, "Do you think that I am someone that will back off from a challenge?"

    Du Qingming pointed to the Great Beyond Goddess, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng. "And your friends won''t interfere in our duel?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "Naturally they won''t."

    Du Qingming was suddenly smiling. He had tricked this unorthodox cultivator into giving him a leeway and he was about to put his disadvantage into an advantage and his advantage into advantageous use!

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "If you can defeat Ji Yuan then we will allow you to duel us one by one."

    Du Qingmingughed, "I am afraid that after I''ve defeated this Ji Yuan, none of you will have the courage to duel with me."

    "You''re looking down upon us?" Bai Qianfeng stared coldly at Du Qingming.

    Her sudden cold stares had given Du Qingming a deadly shiver!

    Du Qingming did not know where this sudden shiver hade from.

    Bai Qianfeng slowly said, "This Ji Yuan is the weakest great saint here. If you are able to defeat him then it will be our turn to grant you a quick death."

    Du Qingming was stunned: what?! They are all great saints and Ji Yuan is actually the weakest?!

    All of a sudden he had discovered that his so call advantage was not so advantageous after all¡­

    Ling Feiyue was smiling weakly: it is not entirely the truth. I am weaker than Ji Yuan but the rest are all peaked great saints and they are all stronger than Ji Yuan in some ways. Even Maiden Feng Minyue isparable to Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Why is your attention on the others? We have a duel that is on-going, am I not right to say so? Because this is a duel, I should make my formal introduction first¡­"

    He then disyed his saint-step divine sword from his spatial storage and coolly said, "I am Great Saint Ji Yuan, a peaked great saint and also a sword saint. My weapon of choice is naturally my sword."

    Du Qingming waspletely rendered speechless. His opponent was not only a peaked great saint and he had also a saint-step divine sword?! Even if he was the son of the heavens, how was he going to win this duel?!

    But the duel had already started!

    Du Qingming said not so eagerly, "I''ve taken three thousand years to reach the great saint level. You are just an old freak in a young body. Do you think you should give me a few free attacks first?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little astonished as he looked at Du Qingming. "Three thousand years?!"

    Du Qingming was actually quite proud of his achievements. His celestial n had given him all the cultivation resources that were necessary and he was extremely proud that he was able to be a great saint when he was three thousand years.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly rolling inughter and he was almost in tears, "Hoho¡­ muhahaha¡­ three thousand years¡­ I took just 500 years to be a peaked great saint and Maiden Ling Feiyue here is just three hundred years old great saintess. Isn''t that a little too long?"

    Du Qingming was stunned and was renderedpletely speechless.

    500 years? 300 years? This ispletely impossible!

    Is this a ruse or something?

    But Ji Yuan continued to say as he created an opening, "If you don''t believe, I can allow your divine sense to examine my skeleton age. Muhahaha¡­"

    Qu Qingming was not one who would be fooled so easily or else he would not be a great saint. Therefore he had reached into Ji Yuan''s profound aura and was dismayed to discover that Ji Yuan was really 500 years old.

    Once again, he was leftpletely stunned¡­

    Ji Yuan taunted Qu Qingming, "Why are you so slow in your cultivation? Is your celestial mountain poor in spiritual seas?"

    Qu Qingming did not know whether he couldugh or cry now, having offended such a lofty cultivator¡­

    But Ji Yuan was not actually feeling all the pleased. It was because 3000 years was indeed a rapid cultivation ascension.

    As for Ji Yuan, his cultivation progression was actually quite slow and painful. If it was not for his forceful cultivation into the golden saint seventh realm, he would still be a sixth realm golden supremacy today. Moreover he had owned Diviner Mo Ming a billion high grade spiritual stones for using the Dream Trial. He had been really lucky inside and this caused his cultivation realm to balloon.

    But how on earth was he going to repay that one billion high grade spiritual stones?!

    Diviner Mo Ming had reminded him that to take care of Mo Bei and his n while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This was the only way to lessen the repayments of his debts¡­

    But sometimes he had felt like kicking Mo Bei¡­but that was another story.

    Ling Feiyue was too embarrassed to admit that she was some heavenly genius. She had be a great saintess due to Ji Yuan''s help and they had found the Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    And naturally she had Bai Qianfeng''s help as well.

    Bai Qianfeng brushed her long silver hair aside as her peerless look seemed to pierce through to Qu Qingming, "Why aren''t you starting the duel yet? I believe that Ji Yuan is willing to give you the benefit of the first strike."

    Qu Qingming nodded reluctantly before he shouted loudly, disying his profound might "This is my ultimate profound art. Even if you are a peaked great saint, you may not be able to receive my profound attack¡­"

    There was a brilliant sh of light as the profound energies from Qu Qingming burst into the vicinity¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually rendered speechless; it was because the profound energies were only a distraction and Qu Qingming had run away like a hare and he was shouting, "I just remember that I''ve something on¡­"

    Yun Chi had suddenly spoken up, "Aren''t you going to chase and kill him?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "He is just a minor character. We need him as one of the three thousands cultivators to trigger the final trial."

    "Or you have consumed plenty of your soul sea in your great battle earlier in the valley?" Teased Yun Chi.

    Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue were all suddenly looking awkwardly!

    Ji Yuan quickly protested, "I am saving my profound strength for our next battle with the other two cultivators. Didn''t you say that there are two of them?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "It seems to me that they do not have any good intentions and they are not easy to deal with."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "Usually in cultivation stories, the main hero will be meditating at the back and he will make hisst appearance. Why is that I seem to be making the first move all the time?"

    Yun Chiughed, "That is because you are not the main hero. I am."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was about to protest when he heard Anyang said to him, "Your cultivation realm is indeed lower than her. So it is better for her to be the one who is meditating and be the main hero."

    Xiang Li agreed, "Indeed!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Which side are the two of you on?!

 Chapter 458 Prelude To The Final Trial (5)

    It did not take long for the two cultivators to arrive from the opposite directions.

    As soon as Ji Yuan spotted the two bearded cultivators, he was rmed for they were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    However it was not the primary reason that had caused Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue to be rmed but they had all the markings from the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    Yun Chi did not seem to be surprise at all for she seemed to have recognized their profound animus.

    Ji Yuan mused weakly; it was no wonder that Yun Chi had warned him that the next fight would not be easy at all.

    Ji Yuan did not dare to be careless and he had immediately disyed his two saint-step divine swords and even the double halos of his divine swords were shown.

    Even the two sword spirits that were in both of his hands and his ''Sword Intentions'' did not manage to warn them off!

    These two bearded cultivators continued to sprint toward Ji Yuan and his party at a terrifying speed!

    It was obvious that they had recognized Ji Yuan and they were unafraid.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It seems to me that they are not weak at all."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Indeed they are not. In fact, the two of them are the elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Do you think that anyone that can reach onto this level will be weak?"

    Ji Yuan answered faintly, "Naturally not."

    Ling Feiyue panicky asked Ji Yuan, "My Lord Ji Yuan, I will fight alongside with you."

    Then she turned to look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "Are the two of you with me or not?"

    But Ji Yuan tapped Ling Feiyue gently on her shoulder before saying, "No Feiyue my dear. I will handle them all by myself. The rest of you please step back!"

    ? Ling Feiyue was startled, "Are you sure you are able to do it?"

    "As you wish, my lord." Bai Qianfeng said matter of fact, saying at the same time as Ling Feiyue.

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Ling Feiyue with a warm smile, "They are from the Evil Cultivation Pce and they have wicked means against maidens. You will be at a disadvantage against them. Not to worry, no one will be able to green me."

    Ling Feiyue saw that the grip on her shoulder was firm and that Ji Yuan had already made up his mind. Therefore she could only sighed softly before giving her silence consent.

    "As you wish my lord but be careful. If you are in trouble, I will surelye to your aid!"

    That was her left words that she had whispered to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan jumped down the canyon and into the valley to meet the speeding cultivators. This was his fight.

    Above him, the Great Beyond Goddess silently watched and there was no indication that she would help Ji Yuan.

    However she had turned to Yun Chi to say, "You are not concern for him?"

    Yun Chi lit up a smile before she casually said, "I am actually more anxious about you."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was also smiling.

    Bai Qianfeng and Ling Feiyue did not know why they were smiling but their presences were equally terrifying!<sub> </sub>

    As for Ji Yuan he had intercepted the two bearded cultivators and he was heard saying coldly to them, "No one shally a finger on my beloveds and I am going to kill the two of you!"

    The two bearded cultivators were both smirking coldly as they stopped in front of Ji Yuan.

    The bearded cultivator that was on the right side of Ji Yuan announced his presence, "I am Great Saint Jin Dahai and he is Great Saint Jin Qiang. We are both elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce and we have both used more than ten thousand maidens for our living furnaces. Needless to say, we are going to turn everyone of the maidens with you into our living furnaces too. Needless to say, we are here to kill you."

    Great Saint Jin Qiang said, "Unfortunately it seems that we have made a little miscalction. It seems that Little Princess is not here at all."

    Great Saint Jin Dahai however was smiling as he spotted the Great Beyond Goddess above, "Look brother. There is a cultivation that has such a pure primeval yin. We are in luck!"

    Great Saint Jin Qiang nodded and he was suddenly smiling.

    Ji Yuan raised his two saint-step divine swords, "Heh! Do you believe that I can in the two of you with my swords?"

    But the two great saints shown little fear as they suddenly surrounded themselves with tens of spiritual talismans.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "You are dark alchemists?!"

    He was a little anxious now. It was because the spiritual talisman required only one-tenth of the usual profound strength to use and to disy its full power. From the intricate designs of these spiritual talismans, Ji Yuan had recognized it to be the most powerful seventh rank spiritual talisman.

    Therefore these two elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce were actually not any simple elders and instead they should have a really lofty status in the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce was really ruthless to send these two lofty alchemist grandmasters to kill him!

    Ji Yuan saw that there were tens of spiritual talismans that were rotating around these two great saints; there were offensive, defensive and misc spirit talismans.

    This was going to be a hard fight!

    Great Saint Jin Qiang was smiling coldly, "So what if you are a peaked great saint now? Our profound animus is more than your puny profound animus. Sword Saint or not, you won''t be able to defeat any one of us. Moreover there are two of us here. So the one that is preparing to die is actually you."

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "We shall see about this¡­"

    When he had said that, he had immediately merged his two sword spirits into his saint-step divine swords as he released two Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light against his two opponents.

    A ck talisman that was encircling each of the two bearded cultivators had suddenly reacted and absorbed Ji Yuan''s sword art in a binding white sh of profound energies.

    Ji Yuan was startled that his sword art did not make an impact at all.

    Great Saint Jin Qiang smirked coldly, "Impressive but useless sword art. I believe that you have a super version of the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light. Unfortunately, we also know that you can only use this two times before your cultivation energies will be exhausted."

    Ji Yuan did not deny this; they seem to know plenty of his trump cards¡­

    Above, Ling Feiyue was gasping that these two enemy great saints were aware of many of Ji Yuan''s trump card. "They seem to have study our Ji Yuan so well¡­"

    "Naturally they are well-informed since I am the one that can inform them about Ji Yuan''s abilities." Yun Chi casually smiled.

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and even the Great Beyond Goddess were shocked.

    Ling Feiyue asked coldly as she began to stare at Yun Chi, "What did you just say?"

 Chapter 459 Prelude To The Final Trial (6)

    Ling Feiyue asked again, "What did you just say again?"

    She had remembered that the first time that she had met Yun Chi, she was purposely dering Ji Yuan as the greatest hero in the entire celestial and was trying to screw him up in front of the other cultivators.

    It was not wrong to say that she did not trust Yun Chi at all.

    Even Feng Minyue was taken aback by what Yun Chi had said and there was a look of hostility in her gentle golden eyes; Ji Yuan is now her man!

    Bai Qianfeng was now Yun Chi''s direct disciple but even then, she too had a look of surprise in her eyes.

    Yun Chi had realized that she had a slip of her mouth and she awkwardlyughed before saying, "I''ve met them on the earlier levels and have a casual talk with them. At that time I didn''t know that they are Ji Yuan''s enemies from the Evil Cultivation Pce. Look, I am trying to praise Ji Yuan to the moon and to the sun in front of them, that is why! Don''t you agree that Ji Yuan¡­ um¡­ is actually such an interesting man?"

    Of course she had known these two grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Pce. She had not only recognized their profound animus and had even led them on a mission to kill Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when she was the Death God Mingwang. Except that no one else knows of her identity as Yun Chi.

    Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue were naturally not convinced and as a matter of fact, they had be even more wary of Yun Chi!

    Who were they? They were not some three year old cultivators that could be easily fooled by a casual story. Firstly, Yun Chi''s story had a big loop hole; she had only known Ji Yuan in the Red Mansion. After that, she had been separated from Ji Yuan briefly. That would mean that Yun Chi had already betrayed Ji Yuan when she was in the Red Mansion!

    Secondly, they were now suspecting that Yun Chi''s child was not fathered by Ji Yuan!

    Bai Qianfeng was not a schemer because she was a goddess immortal. She could only think straight and she stared at Yun Chi for an answer.

    But Yun Chi simply made an wry smile, "Our attention should be their fight, am I right? After all, if these two grand elders have defeated Ji Yuan then we will naturally be their next targets."

    "Ji Yuan will never be defeated." This time it was Feng Minyue that had spoken up.

    It startled Ling Feiyue to hear so but she stomped her foot to agree, "That is right!"

    The two maidens then began to look into each other''s golden eyes and there was a sense of appreciation.

    Feng Minyue best friend in the party was actually Yu Jingjing and the two of them were as close as sisters. Even though they did not show it when they were parting but there was indeed a look of grief in their golden eyes. Some things were better not be said.

    Moreover these two maidens were the most refined in the party. They were the refined types and although Ling Feiyue may seem emotional when ites to Ji Yuan but even her shouts were soft. There were too many times that Ji Yuan hadmented secretly that if Ling Feiyue had wanted him to take her threat seriously then she ought to learn how to shout first, otherwise he would just treat it as music in his ears.

    Ling Feiyue turned to look at Bai Qianfeng, "Sister Qianfeng, I''ve noticed that you are not close to us anymore but you are suddenly really close to her. Why?"

    Her here referred to Yun Chi!

    Bai Qianfeng looked up from her meditating pose as she forced out a smile from behind her veil, "Am I?"

    Silently both Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue were both saying ''YES, YOU ARE!"

    Yun Chi smiled with her rosy small lips before she pointed at the Great Beyond Goddess, "Hey, we must maintain our party unity first. Don''t forget that we have another opponent here and we don''t even know her name or background!"

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were all looking at the Great Beyond Goddess. Although Yun Chi''s diversion wasme but it actually worked!

    Somehow they would still need Yun Chi''s help to ovee this unknown immortal cultivator first!

    Ling Feiyue could not sigh softly as she turned to look at Yun Chi, "Rest assure that I will surely let Ji Yuan know all about your little schemester!"

    -

    -

    -

    Below the valley, Ji Yuan was panting hard; he had disyed on the 500 strokes to test the defenses on the two bearded cultivators that were from the Evil Cultivation Pce but it was in vain!

    There seemed to be an invisible protective spatial space around them and it caused his attacks to be deflected.

    Those attacks that were strong enough to go through a little were easily deflected by their heaven-step divine swords!

    JI Yuan was thinking to himself; should I get a little serious and summon my spirit entity to raise my profound strength to the eighth level and to kill them off with the Sacred Sword Pir from my newly acquired Sacred Swords Profound Art? These two old freaks are really hard to crack. But if I were to use it now and if they don''t die then I am dead. No! I must look for further opportunities or till they have used up their spiritual talismans. I have my own trump cards but I am sure that they have theirs as well¡­

    Great Saint Jin Dahai suddenly said as he attacked several more times on Ji Yuan, "Why don''t we all get serious a little?"

    All of a sudden he had touched a rotating spirit talisman and it had turned into a ming runic spirit talisman. That was not all. A red ming spirit animus had also emerged from his body!

    This was a seventh realm deste spirit animus!

    Ji Yuan was already shocked to see this but his startled shock did not end there when Great Saint Jin Qiang had also disyed the very same move!

    He immediately knows that these two ming spirit animus were able to enhance their fire attacks.

    The two of them had trapped him in a small space and they were now suddenly throwing the two ming runic spirit talismans on him!

    The two ming runic spirit talismans had exploded into two huge columns of fire that were more powerful than any seventh rank fire that Ji Yuan had ever since.

    Great Saint Jin Qiang coolly said, "Our runic spirit talismansbined with our profound strength and spirit animus is able to increase the might of our seventh rank fire by 6 times. So be prepared to die!"

    A single seventh rank fire was already capable of injuring a saint. With double the power, even a great saint could not escape unscathed. Moreover the power of these ming fire was 6 times two!

    Ji Yuan was forced to wrap his saint-step divine sword in a defensive posture and to use his puny profound aura to tank the attacks. But his profound defense was quickly burn off in just a second by these persistent fires!

    A quick though paced into his mind as he unleashed the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to neutralize the attack before he was mmed with a thunderous impact into the side of the cliffs.

    Coughing out a bout of golden blood, he began to slide almost helplessly down the cliff!

    Xiang Li was panicky inside of Ji Yuan and she was rebuking Fairy Anyang Xiahou: Didn''t you say that you have full mastery of the five elements including poison? Why can''t our master tanks these mes?

    Anyang weakly said: I did enhance our Lord Consort and Master fire defense and I can even further enhance it with your aid. But you have forgotten to enhance my abilities and you have scolded me? Regardless, our master profound defense is too weak. He isn''t a defense cultivator or a power cultivator. How is it possible for him to have strong protective profound defense?

    Xiang Li bared her cute little fangs to say: Well, our master is a sword cultivator. They should use their swords indeed. These monkey cultivators that ain''t ying fair!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Outside, even though Ji Yuan was heavily injured by the two ming attacks and he was stumbling onto the ground in great agony but his strong will force himself to raise almost immediately.<sub> </sub>

    This action caused the two beaded cultivators to be a little surprise.

    Ji Yuan had immediately summoned all his profound strength for another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon; he was determined to destroy his foes with the remaining vestige of his profound strength!

    But to his stunned surprise, the two destroyed me runic spiritual talismans were reforming in front of him again and were flying toward him again!

    What the?!

    Isn''t spiritual talisman supposed to be only useable once?

    He had made a gambit that these two great saints may not be able tounch another attack so soon because they need a little more time than him to muster their profound energies to sync with their spirit animus.

    But it seemed that he was wrong!

    There was another wave of thunderous sh as the mid-air between them exploded thunderously.

    Great Saint Jin Dahaiughed, "Unfortunately we don''t want a man to be our living furnaces."

    Great Saint Jin Qiang was also smiling as the me runic spirit talisman began to reform once again, "Our me talisman can be used a total of 4 times and each time they will evolved to a more powerful version. It is just your bad luck that to run into two of the most powerful dark alchemists from the Dark Cultivation Pce. And also, we are not just any elders of the Dark Cultivation Pce but we are the grand elders."

    "We have thought that you may be strong enough to warrant our attention but it seems that we are wrong obviously." Great Saint Jin Dahai could not resist adding. "There is no need for the Death God Mingwang to be involved. What good luck for us and what bad luck for you. So did we burn off all your profound strength?"

    Ji Yuan was struggling to stand straight now and he was thinking: Darn it! I didn''t even have the strength to use my ultimate sword art now¡­ these two freaks are too formidable. But one to one, I may not lose¡­

    But there was a sudden rascal smile from Ji Yuan.

    This caused the two bearded great saints from the Evil Cultivation Pce to be taken by surprise: Is he putting on a brave front?

    Ji Yuan said slowly, "I am not dead yet. That means that I am not defeated yet. As long as I still have a little breath, I can still outrun the two of you and I can still deny you the ultimate victory¡­"

    Xiang Li was shocked: Big Brother, you are running away?!

    Anyang face-palmed herself: I don''t believe¡­

    Great Saint Jin Qiang was suddenly not amused as he flew to intercepted Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan had already leapt away!

    Great Saint Jin Dahai shouted loudly, "Don''t let this rascal escape! He is known as the fastest runner in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. More so now since he is a great saint now!"

    He too was now chasing after Ji Yuan!

    But Ji Yuan did not care as he continued to run away, much to the exasperation of his party above who was stunned by what they were seeing.

    And moreover Ji Yuan was popping profound pills to regain his profound strength as he ran!

    All of a sudden Great Saint Dahai seemed to whisper a divine transmission to Great Saint Jin Qiang.

    With a cold smirk, they had suddenly stopped chasing Ji Yuan and were flying up the valley with a tremendous speed toward the Great Beyond Goddess and Yun Chi!

    Great Saint Dahaiughed wickedly as he was the first one to catch sight of Yun Chi, "Very well then. I shall make your women into my living furnaces¡­"

    All of a sudden Yun Chi''s smooth bare back had spurtedrge white metallic wings. Great Saint Dahai''s head, neck and body were all pierced into a bloody mess and in a single blink of an eye, he was being dismembered.

    Not one drop of his blood managed to touch Yun Chi.

    This stunned Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue as well!

    Yun Chi was not human?!

    Yun Chi could only sigh softly; she did not want to reveal her ultimate trump card but she did not want to fight with her profound strength lest her unborn daughter would be hurt.

    Great Saint Jin Dahai was shocked beyond beliefs. They all had a defensive profound aura around them and it was even enhanced by their runic spiritual talisman. So how would their protective barriers be pierced so easily?!

    He had no time to ponder over this first and moreover when he had suddenly met the golden eyes of the Great Beyond Goddess, he felt very tiny and her profound strength was like a towering cloud that could threaten to snuff his very life.

    Therefore he had panicky retreated down the valley.

    But before he could reach down the valley, Ji Yuan was upon him and he had pierced through him with a brilliant grand cross of light.

    This stunned him because he had no idea why his defense barrier was taken down all of a sudden and before he could ponder further, his head was suddenly sliced off by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had used his Sword of Destruction or rather, his soul life force for his attack.

    He was actually growling softly as he looked at Yun Chi, "I just need a little more time to test my life force sword with my new ultimate sword art, you know. You don''t have to help me."

    He had been running away to consolidate his strength for a new fight and he did not think that the two bearded cultivators would suddenly depart to attack his innocent party members.

    It seemed to Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue that Ji Yuan was not terrified of Yun Chi''s new look and in fact, he had already known about it!

    Ji Yuan was murmuring, "Weird. He seems to be weaker all of a suddenly¡­"

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou proudly announced to Xiang Li and Ji Yuan in their soul sea: That is because their five elements protection didn''t extend its protection to your life force sword. That is why!

    But Ji Yuan said to them: This fight isn''t fair. That goddess maiden had scared the freak out of him and he had not noticed I wasing. Or else it won''t be so easy¡­

    Anyang muttered: You really think that you can defeat the two of them together?

    Ji Yuanughed it off: It is only a matter of time. Now we will never know.

    Anyang said bitterly: That is so shameless¡­

    But Xiang Li was saying: My big brother is the best!

    Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 460 Prelude To The Final Trial (7)

    Now that the fight was over, Ling Feiyue had immediately pulled Ji Yuan to confront Yun Chi.

    "Ji Yuan! Did you see that?"

    She was naturally referring to Yun Chi''s six metallic white wings that were shaped like twelve des on each side.

    In that very instant, everyone could pick up the profound strength of 24 immortal-step divine swords that were on her de!

    While an immortal-step divine sword was just one step below the perfect saint-step divine but having 24 immortal swords were more overwhelming than a single saintly sword!

    Yun Chi smiled nonchntly before she withdrew her white metallic wings.

    Ji Yuan asked with a soft chuckle, "You mean the sword des that are on her back?"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Everyone else except Ji Yuan: ¡­

    They were all startled to see the sword wings that were on Yun Chi''s back but it seemed that only Ji Yuan was not surprised by it.

    Ling Feiyue said exasperatedly, her profound strength trying to lend resilient to her voice, "I mean the wings on her back. She ain''t human. The wings are part of her and is not any profound treasure for sure. There are no spatial movements when my divine sense is upon her. These wings are obviously part of her. She is definitely not a human!"

    Feng Minyue nodded, "I agree with Sister Feiyue''s analysis. She is right."

    Ji Yuan took a look at Yun Chi and he was smiling weakly, "Haha¡­ this is only a small matter."

    Then he quickly growled, "Something wrong with my awesome performance again."

    Bai Qianfeng quickly kept her two seventh rank deste spirit pets before she chuckled softly, "What is wrong with your awesomeness today? You mean you didn''t manage to outrun them?"

    She was actually nning to aid Ji Yuan too¡­

    Ji Yuan growled weakly, "I actually have a trump card and that is my ninth rank immortal demonic cherubim. When I use it, my cultivation strength and profound strength will be at the eighth realm middle tier. But I can''t seem to muster it?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "You are just finding an excuse why you are unable to solo these two evil great saint cultivators."

    After she had said that, she had secretly lit a smile. It was because she was the one that had prevented Ji Yuan''s one and only spirit animus from awakening; she hadplete and full power over the angels'' demonic beasts. Moreover she was also the one that had gifted Ji Yuan''s his spirit animus when he was at the 5th level.

    However she did not expect for Ji Yuan to gain the cultivation strength of an eighth rank immortal cultivator and she was actually quite shocked.

    By preventing the use of the spirit animus, she was not screwing Ji Yuan on purpose. She knew very well that Ji Yuan would find his own ways to defeat the two grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Pce but she did not want Ji Yuan to be dependable on his spirit animus.

    Ji Yuan was still murmuring, "That is weird. So weird¡­"

    Even though he knew that he had drained his profound strength too fast and was popping profound recovery pills but he could not believe he was not able to summon his spirit animus. In fact, his spirit animus was dormant in his inner spirit seas and could not be awakened.

    He was asking Xiang Li and Anyang: Ladies, I can''t summon my spirit animus. Why?!<sub> </sub>

    Fairy Anyangughed softly, "Maybe you can only summon your spirit animus only once?"

    "Or once in a in full moon?" Xiang Li chuckled as she helped with her own suggestion.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue angrily interrupted Ji Yuan as she said, "She and ''she''. Today you must give an ording to us!"

    One ''She'' was referring to Yun Chi and the another ''She'' was naturally referring to the unknown maiden immortal that was with Ji Yuan.

    It was because she saw that the Great Beyond Goddess was giving one of the bearded cultivators such a fright by disying her profound animus and for a second, she too, was being startled by it as well.

    All of a sudden she was gasping softly.

    It was because everyone could suddenly see that the Great Beyond Goddess had turned very pale!

    Indeed the Great Beyond Goddess had turned extremely pale and by all ounts, it seemed to be the best opportunity to attack her as well.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see the Great Beyond Goddess in such a weak condition.

    The condition of the Great Beyond Goddess was indeed extremely weak; it was because Ji Yuan had used up all his spiritual energies in his soul sea to fight the two grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Pce. When Ji Yuan was weak, so was she since she was upying and tapping upon Ji Yuan''s spiritual energies in order to dwell in this realm.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan fell to his knees as he coughed a bout of golden blood; he had suddenly suffered a minor bacsh as his spiritual energies were suddenly convulsing in his soul sea. He had used his profound strength too fast in his great haste to catch up with the Great Saint Jin Dahai but the main reason he had suffered a bacsh was because he had consumed his life energies.

    Ling Feiyue was exasperated, "I told you not to use your life energies under any circumstances-"

    She had barely finished what she was trying to say when everyone saw that the Great Beyond Goddess had also bent over at the same time!

    This was not lost on Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue as they gasped quietly: what is wrong with the two of them?

    But their attention was mostly on the Great Beyond Goddess and not Ji Yuan because firstly, the Great Beyond Goddess had not been in any battle and therefore how would she possibly be in this pathetic state all of a sudden?

    Secondly, this seemed to be the most perfect time to attack and to get rid of her. Right?

    But before anyone of them could react, Ji Yuan was already helping the Great Beyond Goddess by lifting her up. "Look at you. You look a little careless today."

    The Great Beyond Goddess could feel Ji Yuan''s strong grip on her arms and she was startled that Ji Yuan was helping her up instead of attacking her.

    In fact, she could feel the warm blood that was coursing from Ji Yuan''s arms into her own¡­

 Chapter 461 Prelude To The Final Trial (8)

    When Ling Feiyue saw that Ji Yuan was helping to lift the Great Beyond Goddess, she was startled. "Ji Yuan! Do you know that she is your enemy and she is trying to kill you?"

    Ji Yuan had a most awkward look on his face and he had immediately loosened his grip on the Great Beyond Goddess.

    He could only mutter weakly, "I forget¡­"

    That was the truth and he had merely did so out of his natural reflexes.

    Ling Feiyue then pointed at Yun Chi, "Did you see the six wings that are on her back? She ain''t human but you seem to have already known that."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he tried to cook an excuse, "Yun Chi is on our side. She doesn''t have any deste aura, I''m sure that you know about it, I can vouch for her Moreover she is my woman with my unborn child now. Haha¡­."

    Yun Chi was secretly touched but it was her nature to be mean so she casually smiled, "You''ve heard Ji Yuan, right?"

    Bai Qianfeng quietly said, "Sister Yun¡­" But she quickly changed her tone to emphasis. "Yun Chi is someone that is trustworthy."

    Ling Feiyue was still indignant as she could not believe that Ji Yuan was standing on the side of Yun Chi and moreover he had long known about Yun Chi''s secret.

    But there was nothing she could not do if Ji Yuan was standing on her side and moreover even Bai Qianfeng was on her side.

    Of course the most important reason was that she could not outfight Yun Chi or else she would have given her a few lessons first. Fight first and talkter!

    She began to look at an equally startled Feng Minyue who was also surprised by what Ji Yuan had known about Yun Chi.

    Even though Feng Minyue was a formidable cultivator than her but she was too passive. She was beginning to miss Shui Xisi who would rush in to fight Ji Yuan at a moment notice. Moreover she knew that Shui Xisi was a sly fighter that still have several unknown trump cards¡­

    Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Bai Qianfeng who had suddenly attacked Ji Yuan with all her might using her palm!

    This startled and shocked everyone.

    And naturally Ji Yuan was the most shocked, "My Dear Qianfeng¡­why¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediate raised his right palm in defense but he was still knocked back three steps even though he was a peaked great saint as he was still trying to recover his profound strength from using his super sword arts.

    Everyone could see that the Great Beyond Goddess had also turned pale at the same time¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was bncing himself and asking Bai Qianfeng why was she attacking him, she had suddenly made another subtle move by attacking the unknown maiden immortal cultivator.

    Even though she had supported Yun Chi, it did not mean that she was supporting the unknown maiden goddess.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was startled as she quickly mustered all her profound strength and this time Bai Qianfeng was knocked back seven steps!

    This retaliation had taken all of the Great Beyond Goddess'' profound strength because her host was just too weak in his cultivation strength to sustain her profound strength¡­

    Even though Bai Qianfeng was knocked back seven steps, she was still smiling; it was because the attack was obviously not as powerful as previously and it seemed to have drain the unknown maiden immortal cultivator even more.

    Ji Yuan coughed weakly as he flew to Bai Qianfeng to ask her, "Qianfeng, why did you attack her¡­"

    He never got the chance to get an answer from her because Bai Qianfeng next blow had sent Ji Yuan to fly away like a defenseless cultivator even though he had raised his palm.

    Yun Chi, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue were startled as they all almost said at the same time, "Qianfeng¡­you¡­"

    But Bai Qianfeng coolly said instead, "Just as I''ve thought. They are sharing the same inner cultivation sea or else Ji Yuan''s profound strength won''t drop so drastically."

    This revtion shocked everyone including Ji Yuan.

    "We share the same inner cultivation sea?" Ji Yuan was startled. "Is it even possible? Isn''t this the same as fighting with myself?"

    He began to stare at the Great Beyond Goddess for an answer¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess began to sigh softly as her cover was exposed all of a suddenly. She had never thought that this day to be so soon so she was forced to admit, "So you have already known. Very well then, I will not hide from you anymore¡­"

    "That''s it! I know the reason why!" Ji Yuan suddenly had a triumphant look on his face as he interrupted the Great Beyond Goddess.

    This caused every one to look at Ji Yuan with a look of surprise. What did Ji Yuan know?

    Ji Yuanughed as he coolly exined, "Actually she is a Trial Spirit. She did not lie to me at all. And she has wanted to be my spirit animus. But unfortunately, I can''t receive any spirit animus anymore. As you all know, Xiang Li and Anyang are upying my two saint swords now and they don''t work as part of me as they can dwell inside my saintly swords. I have two sword spirits. One at the sixth realm golden supremacy level and one at the seventh realm golden saint level. Naturally my spirit animus is for my eighth realm immortal positioning level. Therefore I am fuller than full. Because I''ve rejected her, she is now following me. Haha¡­"

    This was the most feasible reply and Ji Yuan was now praising his super big brain for exining it.

    Even Xiang Li was in awe of his exnation as she said silently in his soul sea: Omg my big brother! Why didn''t your Xiang Li pierce this together? You are so brilliant!"

    Fairy Anyang shook her to protest weakly, "You still can''t exin why she is following you and draining your inner spiritual seas without your permission. This is just not possible at all and moreover we didn''t even see her in your soul sea."

    When Ji Yuan heard Fairy Anyang, he quickly added loudly for all to hear. "And the reason why she is following me is because I have rejected her to be my Queen¡­ I mean my spirit animus in the Trial of Righteousness¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you have met her before the Trial of Righteousness and in the Array of Illusions. She is trying to kill you." Feng Minyue said quietly.

    Ling Feiyue was nodding as well, "Have you forgotten?"

    Even Bai Qianfeng was saying, "Did you?"<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was now saying confidently, "Of course she was trying to kill me and because she was trying to kill me previously, she is now trying to follow me."

    Everyone: ¡­

    What kind of a logic is this?!

    Ji Yuan was naturally thinking in his soul sea: Well, I can''t tell you about Xiang Li''s ability to grant a wish since I don''t intent to make it so this is going to be my secret forever. This beautiful Trial Spirit here is trying to make me make a wish so that Xiang Li may leave me. She has her own good intentions actually. So she is not actually trying to kill me because she can''t kill me as we are sharing the same soul sea¡­

    His thoughts were actually being overheard by Anyang and the Great Beyond Goddess.

    As for Xiang Li, she could not recall Ji Yuan''s thoughts as it was taboo to her.

    Ji Yuan''s thoughts had suddenly given the Great Beyond Goddess an idea and she was thinking: This pig brain cultivator¡­

    So she said, "I am really a Trial Spirit and I was only testing Ji Yuan. I am actually someone who admires him greatly and wish to be his spirit animus. Unfortunately his quota of having more spirit animus has already been exceeded."

    Ji Yuan was now rubbing his chin, "And it is no wonder why I can''t summon my Demonic Cherubim Deste Beast. I''ve a conflict of interest in my soul sea that I will need to resolve. So, should I choose my Demonic Cherubim Deste Beast or this beautiful and powerful maiden spirit animus?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    She was suddenly cursing Ji Yuan all of a sudden: she was the one that had prevented the Ninth Rank Immortal ss Demonic Cherubim from awakening¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was unconvinced and she quickly echoed everyone''s thoughts by saying, "But she has a physical form. Spirit animus do not have a physical form."

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "That is not true at all. Xiang Li has a physical form. And Anyang also has a physical form now. This is the power of my soul sea and that is why she also has a physical form. Am I right to say so?"

    Yun Chi, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were all held speechless by Ji Yuan''s exnation but there was nothing that they could say to refuse this¡­

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou was silently looking at Ji Yuan and she was saying in her heart: My master as well as my Lord Consort, thank you so much for giving your Anyang a physical body. I am willing to pledge my heart and love for you forever¡­

    Meeting Xiang Li and Ji Yuan happened to be the happiest moment of her eternal life¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly smiling, "As you know, Trial Spirits are sacred spirit entities and cannot lie. This is the brokenw of the divine. Therefore I cannot lie to you."

    Bai Qianfeng answered, "What if you are not a Trial Spirit? Therefore if you dare to make the most sacred oaths of all to the Great Beyond Goddess on your own soul sea then I will believe you. Do you or do you not dare?"

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue said in concert, "Do you dare or do you not dare?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly smiling; she is the most high divine. Making an oath in her name is the mostughable thing that can ever happen.

    "I can make the sacred oath to the Great Beyond Goddess." She casually replied them.

    Ji Yuanughed all of a sudden, "Come to think of this. Even though you have a physical form and can''t seem to dwell in my inn spiritual seas, you are still my spirit entity. I still don''t know your name yet."

    "My name?" For the very first time, the Great Beyond Goddess was startled: her real name is unspeakable and therefore no one knows of her real name. And this lowly cultivator is trying to learn her name?

    But she quicklyposed herself to say, "My name is Dream Mist. You may call me Dream."

    She did not lie to Ji Yuan for this name was a shorten name of herself.

    Ji Yuan began to mutter, "Hmm¡­Dream¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess smiled angelically as she said softly, "I, Dream Mist, will now make the most sacred oath of all to the Great Beyond Goddess that I did not lie about my identity as a Trial Spirit and as Ji Yuan''s spirit animus. If I were to lie then may my soul sea be shattered and my immortal soul shall never be reborn ever again."

    She had just made the most deadliest of all oaths.

    Yun Chi was surprised as she pondered secretly: Am I wrong in my assumptions about her? There is no reason why such a powerful immortal spirit entity will want to be Ji Yuan''s spirit animus. Ji Yuan may still die in his ascension and she may be screwing herself, right?

    Ji Yuan was delighted by the oath as he began to tap onto the Great Beyond Goddess'' shoulder, "So Dream, I guess that I will be introducing you to my Xiang Li and Xiahou for a quick get to know each other¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess merely nodded casually when Ji Yuan began to speak to her. She just had no sentiment or romantic attachments to Ji Yuan.

    But all of a sudden she was gasping when Ji Yuan had suddenly moved his hand down to her butt and began to tickle between her legs.

    "You!" She stared at him coldly and was cursing him silently.

    Ji Yuan pretended to cough weakly as he quickly made his getaway; he just could not resist touching her and he was feeling very awkward when she was staring at him suddenly.

    Just as the Great Beyond Goddess was thinking that this crisis was over and that she could hide her real identity from everyone, she had a sudden indescribable pain in her heart and was startled; her body was perfect and she could not possibly have any ailments.

    So she reached into her soul and her Dao told her that this was her first lie ever and this caused the mysticws of her divine heart to suffer a minor bacsh.

    This isn''t possible?!

    She was startled¡­

    This Ji Yuan can corrupt even her heart?!

 Chapter 462 Prelude To The Final Trial (9)

    <Maturity Warning in this chapter>

    Nightfall.

    Ji Yuan had stolen away with Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue, away from his other party members.

    Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "You''ve asked the two of us to be here? So no more night escapades for you?"

    Feng Minyue was a little surprised as well for she had thought that Ji Yuan would ask Ling Feiyue to be alone with him. Or even Bai Qianfeng or even Yun Chi.

    She did not know why Ji Yuan had asked her to go on a patrol too.

    Ji Yuan looked a little upset as he said bitterly, "Do you think that I am only capable of thinking only with my lower body?"

    Ling Feiyue was delighted as she asked, "So you''ve finally figured out that ''Dream Mist'' has lied to you? A spirit entity that is able to survive outside a soul sea is simply too ridiculous. So what is our stratagem then?"

    Ji Yuan had a nked expression as he looked into Ling Feiyue''s gaze, "Um, what¡­ stratagem?"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Feng Minyue was startled too as she asked, "I''ve thought you have asked Sister Feiyue and I to be out here with you to discuss a potential stratagem?"

    Ji Yuan asked innocently, "I''ve thought that we have agreed to trust Dream Mist and Yun Chi?"

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue: ¡­

    "Then why are we here in the first ce?!" Ling Feiyue said exasperatingly. "I''ve thought that you have discovered the loopholes that are in her stories and that you have also noticed that Qianfeng is walking a little too close to that Yun Chi nowadays."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan began to give a stupefied face as he did not think of any of these reasons. "Actually I am just asking the two of you to take a little stroll with me. Qianfeng is a little busy so there are just the two of you."

    They had heard Bai Qianfeng telling Ji Yuan to ''enjoy himself'' with a soft chuckle but they did not know what she had meant. Moreover she had also said to him. "You should know that I am busy with something, right? You''re the one that gives me this hope!"

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to protest, Bai Qianfeng chuckled. "If you are so need of some apany, I can lend you my little green'' lizard and bird.''."

    Ji Yuan had a look of disgust as he quickly muttered, "No thanks. Not them. I would rather have Senior Mo Bei''s good for nothing ck Dragonpig¡­ I mean Dragonpeak."

    Then he had turned to look at Yun Chi but Yun Chi quickly smiled, "No thanks. You may leave now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then he turned awkwardly to Dream Mist and told her, "I''ll be patrolling with Maiden Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue but we will be back shortly.

    That was how they had turned out to be alone in the dark valley now.

    Feng Minyue turned to look at the bright starry skies, "Isn''t it good this way? The night skies of the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is so beautiful."

    Ling Feiyue softly said as she too looked at the heavens above, "Yes it is. It is indeed beautiful."

    Ji Yuan awkwardlyughed, "Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly smiling too, "So why not be honest with yourself?"

    Feng Minyue: ???

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Only my Feiyue knows me better than anything."

    "Don''t give me that." Ling Feiyue chuckled softly. "Sometimes I don''t understand you at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Feiyue, how can you say this? I am¡­ so hurt¡­

    Ji Yuan coughed softly and he was looking with pride, "As you know, Maiden Feng Minyue is now my woman."

    Feng Minyue was suddenly flushing!

    She really did not know why Ji Yuan would suddenly choose to announce something like this at this time?

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly smiling, "Isn''t this just a matter of time? You want to chase her skirts so badly that this isn''t a secret anymore."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Feiyue is indeed my bosom sweetheart. You know me so well."

    Feng Minyue looked a little hurt, "And I am not your bosom sweetheart?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "You are¡­"

    "No, you are not yet." Ling Feiyue interrupted with a wry smile. "Unless of course¡­" She did not finish her sentence.

    Ji Yuan growled, "She''s not? She is definitely is."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Of course she is not. Unless of course she is willing to bend into the rules of my harem."

    Ji Yuan growled immediately, "What harem rules? Howe I didn''t know there is one?"

    In his mind, the only harem rule is for everyone to just love only him.

    Ling Feiyue slyly answered, "Don''t forget that Qianxue and I have married you at the same time. Only Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi are above us in status. Therefore don''t you think that I am able to make the rules of our harem?"<sub> </sub>

    "What rules?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Even Feng Minyue was silently asking what the harem rules were.

    She thought: Entering Ji Yuan''s harem isn''t as easy as it looks to her¡­

    <o>,m Ling Feiyue was suddenly loosening her belt that was bounded by her soul force and allowed her skirt from within her robe to slip down.</o>

    Ji Yuan immediately gulped¡­

    Xiang Li was immediately excited¡­

    Anyang was staring widely¡­

    Even the Great Beyond Goddess who was secretly spying upon them was startled¡­

    But Ling Feiyue was still smiling as she dropped her outer robe to reveal her exquisite upper and lower undies.

    She did it slowly because she knew that she was enthralling and beholding for men to take notice of her immediately.

    Ji Yuan weakly said and his voice was faltered, "I.. erm¡­ actually¡­don''t remember¡­ I have¡­ such¡­ a good rule¡­"

    Ling Feiyue gently lifted her fingers to loosen the soul bound that was on her undies and she had suddenly slipped them off slowly to reveal her beautiful slender white body.

    She asked shyly, "Ji Yuan, am I good to look at?"

    A stunned Ji Yuan could only mutter, "Very good¡­ very beautiful¡­" And he was trying to look between her valley but Ling Feiyue had one hand on it while her other hand was on her bosoms.

    He simply could not wait to pull her hands away from his bestial eyes¡­

    Xiang Li was muttering: Sister Feiyue should be more open. I can''t see really well via Ji Yuan''s eyes. Big Brother, can Ie out?

    Ling Feiyue quietly said, "Ji Yuan is really a popr man and he has many beauties by his side. Not once but many and we serve at his side to fulfill his beastly desires."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I will have beastly desires?!"

    Feng Minyue was gasping softly but she immediately knew what Ling Feiyue''s game was about. And she immediately loosened her belt to let slip of her skirt down her robe.

    This was not lost on Ji Yuan or anyone else!

    Feng Minyue nodded shyly, "Naturally our lord deserves the best and he deserves the two of us to serve him tonight, am I right?"

    Ling Feiyue did not agree or disagree as she watched Feng Minyue disrobed herself in her bodice and undies.

    It was not very soon before Feng Minyue had revealed her peaked bosoms and had slipped down her undies to expose her beautiful valley¡­

    Ji Yuan had taken several steps forward and he had taken off his robe. He could not stand this temptation anymore¡­

    This was not lost on either Feng Minyue or Ling Feiyue.

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said as pulled down his pant to reveal his bulging manhood, "This¡­ isn''t¡­ some trick¡­ I hope? Haha¡­ the night sky is indeed¡­ beautiful today¡­ "

    He did not know what to say because this was all too new for him!

    Ling Feiyue had a naughty look as she was suddenly kneeling down to hold onto Ji Yuan''s genital carefully before she started to kiss it gently and soon she was licking it, slowly butfortably.

    Feng Minyue did not hesitate and she was also bending down; she was soon sticking her tongue to cover every inch of Ji Yuan''s manhood.

    Ji Yuan was very, very surprised.

    Xiang Li was looking intently at Ji Yuan''s expression and felt very satisfied while Anyang was looking at Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue¡­

    Feng Minyue said to Ling Feiyue, "Let''s see who can first make our lord cum first. You or me."

    "Fine!" Ling Feiyue giggled. "But the loser shall kiss the other and share the cum. Deal?"

    Feng Minyue smiled shyly, "It is only natural."

    Ji Yuan was startled that they were both pleasuring him and they had even agreed to taste his cum at the same time¡­

    He could not help reaching for his hands to grab their heads forward and to fondle their perky bosoms hard.

    The sensation of their soft breasts had caused Ji Yuan to grow very hard and he was deep throating them hard while spilling his billions of sticky Little Ji Yuan into Feng Minyue''s throat but it was so overwhelming that it had spilled from her mouth to her face and hair, even shooting to hit Ling Feiyue extremely alluring face.

    Ling Feiyue immediately kissed Feng Minyue on her lips and the two of them were grabbing around each other as they attempted to swallow every one of the Little Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan also noticed that their moisty valleys were wet and had waters rapturing down their thighs, unstoppable like a flood.

    Therefore he could not help putting his fingers between their valleys and were very pleased that they had also released their soul force on their most secluded areas. So, he did what every man will do and sticked his fingers inside their moisty valleys and he was rubbing hard.

    Not only that, he had parted their moisty valleys and he was given the most admirable view while Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue took turns to pleasure him.

    One moment it was him banging Ling Feiyue hard while fingering Feng Minyue, the next moment he was banging Feng Minyue hard while fingering Ling Feiyue. Or the next moment they would be pleasuring his little brother together while fondling each other.

    The three of them banged each other hard without a care for anything else in the world. Ji Yuan had lost count on the number of times that he had filled into their moisty valleys but he did not care nor did the maidens care. When their moisty valleys were full, they would help to clean with their mouths.

    There was however something else in the world; they had forgotten that Xiang Li, Anyang and the Great Beyond Goddess were watching them with a lot of mix feelings and their undies were all wet¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess was beyond such desire, or so she had thought. But she had shared Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she could feel his pleasuring sensations; his desires were to enter into Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue, until he had made them into his depraved sexual ves, he just would not stop.

 Chapter 463 The Final Trial Is Finally Opened (1)

    Barely three days had passed when there was a purple portal that had suddenly burst from one of the directions of the canyons.

    Ji Yuan was caught by surprise by the sudden appearance of the purple portal.

    A feminine voice was heard loudly in the heavens above, "The final trial is now opened. 3000 cultivators have now gathered in this area. More will arrive but the first 3000 cultivators will have the benefits of your lucky urrences first for you are the strongest in your cohort."

    With that, the mysterious feminine voice was gone.

    Feng Minyue immediately said, "The final gate of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is finally opened. It is a SS Rank Trial."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "An SS Rank Trial? Isn''t this thing harder than the S Rank Trial?"

    The S Trial was already extremely hard to ovee and many cultivators had chosen to search for an easier trial elsewhere.

    And now this was the SS Rank Trial.

    That also mean that there were now three thousand cultivators that had gathered in the canyons.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I really don''t see the others. This canyon must be really vast."

    Feng Minyue smiled, "It is. And it is not strange to gather three thousand cultivators in such a short time either. It is just that we are among the very first. Usually 10% of the cultivators will make their way to the 6th level. That is at least 30 000 of them. So gathering three thousand cultivators are not hard at all. However the final trial is the most dangerous of all the trials and that is why we can only know the exact location of the purple portal once it has spawned. Never earlier. Now we must make haste to im the best rewards and lucky urrences from the trial."

    Ji Yuan was muttering, "Well you know. I''m already a peaked great saint. Do I need more lucky urrences?"

    He was naturally thinking that he could not bang Feng Minyue or Ling Feiyue anymore. Three days were too short for him!

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly, "Of course you need your lucky urrences. You are so weak in your five elements. Other than your profound energy recovery, what other cultivation benefits do you have?"

    Ji Yuan awkwardly answered, "You don''t say. I have my Qianfeng to protect me¡­"

    "Fat hope!" Bai Qianfengughed it off before she cast a yful wink at Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue who had caught her yful demeanor.

    She did not need eyes to know what they had been up to with Ji Yuan for the past 3 days.

    Although Bai Qianfeng wished to join them but she needed to ponder over the mysteries of Yun Chi''s cultivation first. This was much important in her eyes. Luckily for her, she was originally a deste immortal in the first ce and it was not too hard on the deste profound energies part. But for the righteous profound energies part, she was struggling.

    Ji Yuan reluctantly announced, "Let''s go into the purple portal then!"

    For the past three days, the Great Beyond Goddess was not clingy to Ji Yuan anymore and had kept her distance. In fact, she was now afraid of Ji Yuan''s light touches; it was a touch that could burn away her very defenses and for the very first time, she was afraid. Why didn''t she stay inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea instead and lied that she had a physical form?

    -

    -

    -

    The purple portal was bigger than Ji Yuan had imagined. It was 33m tall and 33m in width.

    Hundreds of cultivators were seen dashing into the purple portal before Ji Yuan and his party could do so.

    He was surprised by the number of cultivators that were hiding in the vast canyons and valleys.

    He began to wonder how Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing and Little Princess were doing and if they were nearby¡­

    But somehow, he wished that they had failed the trial as he did not want them to risk themselves in an SS Rank Trial.

    When Ji Yuan had entered through the purple portal, he saw that he was standing on a ridge and there were dozens of cultivators as well. Almost all of them had reached around the same time.

    He could suddenly hear the feminine voice from the heavens again, "Not all of you will have the same starting point. As the 3000 of you are first, you will be allocated to an area that is much closer to the inner ridge of the final trial. Lateers will naturally be allocated to the outer ridge. This does not mean that you have a much greater opportunities in the wondends of the final trial and this must rely on your lucky urrences. Also you will be allocated a golden talisman which you can use to save your own life only once. When you have used the golden talisman, you will be teleported outside at which you will have two options. You can either choose to stay outside ore inside but at your own personal risk."

    Ji Yuan of course was not attentive enough to finish hearing what the Trial Spirit was saying. It was because he was already turning his head around to look for his party.

    When he saw Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and ''Dream Mist'' in the same group as him, he was a little relieved.

    Only then did he start to count the number of cultivators in the vicinity and there were around 300.

    All the cultivators were actually quite well spread out as the vicinity that spawned them was huge and they were all overlooking a thick forest of ironwoods. Many of the ironwoods were 100m in height!

    Immediately everyone knows that they must find a path through the thick woods but they could also sense a strong deste presence inside the woods, indicating the presence of seventh, eighth and even ninth rank deste monsters!

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes; it was because fighting any deste monsters that were the seventh rank and above was never an easier thing and they drained too much profound strength from the cultivators.

    The trick was to avoid the deste monsters and to find the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­

    At least that was his primary objective.

    But Ji Yuan was more concerned about the safety of his women than any artefact cores but he had promised Jiajia that he would seed in his mission and hence, that was why he was here.

    The truth was that he had only entered the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth out of curiosity and that he was only interested in the trials of the Celestial Realm. Whether he passed the trials or not, was not his primary concerns.

    As Ji Yuan walked to his party members, he wasughing. "Haha¡­ we have met once again."

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue were all smiling.

    There was no need for any words.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan spotted Lin Antian, a ck robe cultivator with a ck spear that had soundly defeated him previously. It was only with Fairy Anyang''s interference that Ji Yuan had ''won'' his match.

    Ji Yuan immediately ran to him as though he had encountered an old friend and he was smiling, "Hey old friend! Shall we go in a group? It is much safer for us to enter the forest together."

    Lin Antian was surprised to see Ji Yuan again. He merely said, "No thanks. I am used to being the solo cultivator."

    With that, he had entered into the forest.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "What a weird fellow. Well, I don''t need him anyway¡­"

    He was about to leave when a familiar voice shook the very core of his soul. That voice was shouting, "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan!"<sub> </sub>

    He looked up to see Yu Jingjing who was with three other maidens and she was flying to him.

    Ji Yuan was startled: Jingjing! You are actually among the 3000 cultivators?!

    They had actually parted ways not long ago after she had failed the Key of Righteous. To think that he would find her again so soon¡­

    Although it pained him to say so, he was actually missing her very much!

    He immediately flew to embrace Yu Jingjing and he would want to grope her butt but Yu Jingjing yfully stepped aside when they had almost embraced.

    She shyly whispered to him, "My matriarch and my prot¨¦g¨¦-sister is with me. Don''t you dare to be disrespectful to me."

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes¡­

    He looked up and saw a slightly aged maiden. That must be Yu Jingjing''s matriarch and she had the most formidable profound aura. She must be great saint. As for the maiden who was always smiling behind her, she must be Yu Jingjing''s prot¨¦g¨¦ sister. As for the third maiden, Ji Yuan was surprised to see her. "Isn''t she Qin Shuang? She is from my celestial fraternity."

    Yu Jingjing nodded, "I have only met them a day earlier. You know Qin Shuang? Indeed, she is from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and she is from your Celestial Orthodox Sect. We have all decided to band together as it is safer in numbers. Moreover we are all from the orthodox sects."

    Ji Yuan nodded; of course he knew Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang. She was the maiden that had whipped him while he was in the Celestial Orthodox Sect. However he had long forgiven her for her whippings since she had also aided him while they were in the Red Mansion trying toplete the Fallen Gods Relic Trial, an S Rank Trial. That was the fifth level trial and they had since been separated from each other.

    Suddenly Yu Jingjing began to whisper to Ji Yuan, "I have to warn you first. My matriarch hates men so don''t get too wanton or too friendly."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am a good man, you know¡­

    Yu Jingjing was immediately joined by her party members while Ji Yuan''s party members had also caught up with him.

    Feng Minyue could not resist greeting, "Sister Jingjing!"

    Yu Jingjing was also d to see Feng Minyue again as she said, "Sister Feng Minyue!"

    Most of Ji Yuan party members had actually recognized Yu Jingjing and Qin Shuang, much to the surprise of Yu Jingjing''s matriarch.

    "I am Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping." She quickly greeted them when Yu Jingjing had introduced Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue to her.

    She had naturally known who Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue were since she was from the Holy Oracle Sect and she knew all the renowned cultivators.

    But still she could not hide her surprise when they were introduced to her, "The two of you are from the opposite sides of the cultivation fraternity. And you are close sisters and friends?"

    Ji Yuan could not resist adding silently: And they have also banged each other too.

    Xiang Li began to giggle when she had heard Ji Yuan and so did Anyang.

    As for the Great Beyond Goddess, she rolled her misty eyes and pretended she did not hear Ji Yuan¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping took a look at the Great Beyond Goddess, "This Maiden Dream Mist ¡­ has¡­ unique eyes."

    Ji Yuanughed as he quickly found an excuse, "Haha ¡­ yes. Her cultivation is a little damaged. That is why. Soon she will be alright."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping nodded, "This is quitemon among the cultivators, especially for cultivators that are taking the trials in this ce."

    Then she looked at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng with meaningful nces, "As with Maiden Dream Mist, I''ve never heard of you before. Our celestial records must be quite outdated."

    She then proceeded to introduce Yang Mi, the cultivator that was always with a smiling countenance. "Yang Mi is still young. She has just reached the golden saint level and is an earth-step saintess. She still has many things to learn from everyone here."

    Yang Mi immediately greeted everyone and when she was greeting Ji Yuan, she was particrly nervous for she had never seen anyone as good looking as Ji Yuan.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled after all the introductions had been made, "Since we have already been acquainted, shall we not make a party and travel together then?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is what I''ve in mind as well."

    He was actually thinking: Yu Jingjing''s matriarch really isn''t that bad. Maybe it is my charms. Haha ¡­

    All of a sudden Yu Jingjing said, "Grand Matriarch, I''ve something urgently to report. I''ve almost forgotten about it."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, "What is it?"

    Yu Jingjing took out a blue zither that Ji Yuan had purchased for her and said, "This zither is from Ji Yuan for me. Can I keep it?"

    When Ji Yuan saw the zither, he was muttering silently to himself: I remember this zither. This costs me 40 million spirit stones¡­ I wonder if this Grand Matriarch willpensate me for my losses?

    Grand Matriarch gasped when she saw the zither, "This zither is the zither that our Ancestor Matriarch had lost. You have actually found it? If you can practice it then you may gain valuable insights of our Melody Harmony Divine Art. You must protect this zither at all times. Thanks to the Great Beyond Goddess above, we have finally found our Ancestor Matriarch''s divine art again!"

    Yu Jingjing was gasping with shock when she had heard her grand matriarch. She could only mutter tearfully, "Thank you Ji Yuan, thank you Ji Yuan¡­"

    Even Yang Mi was in tears for she too, was from the Holy Oracle Sect of the Endless Celestial Fraternity as she muttered. "We''ve finally found our Ancestor Matriarch''s lost divine art again¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping turned to Ji Yuan to say, "Thank you, thank you¡­this gift has been so priceless¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually waiting for her to ask for the cost so that he could receive hispensation but there was none to speak of. So he had to swallow his pride and muttered silently: At least you will allow me to bang Jingjing right?

    All of a sudden there were two loud shouts at the back and Ji Yuan turned toward it; he was quite startled to see that it was Senior Mo Bei and his best friend Xiao Muhan that had suddenly appeared as they shouted. "Isn''t that Ji Yuan? Hoho!"

    Thest two persons that Ji Yuan had wanted to see were actually Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan.

    So he could not resist saying aloud, "What the heck are they doing here?!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling, "Who are they?"

    Ling Feiyue could not resist the urge to answer, "They are two of Ji Yuan''s best friends, Senior Mo Bei and Saint Xiao Muhan."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed that there was a slight malevolent air in-between the golden eyes of this Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping when Mo Bei''s name was being mentioned.

    Although it was slight but Ji Yuan was a sword saint and all he could sense malevolent air from a mile away!

 Chapter 464 The Final Trial Is Finally Opened (2)

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan were d that they had caught sight of Ji Yuan and moreover he was in apany of several astonishing beauties.

    Mo Bei was the first to tap Ji Yuan on his shoulder, "Junior, we have met again. Hahahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan smiled when he saw Ji Yuan and he was grinning when he saw Yun Chi, "Haha, Brother Ji Yuan. Even though I don''t really like your character but I must admit that you do have your ways in the trial. Therefore I have decided to follow you!"

    There is strength in numbers and Xiao Muhan knows it. Moreover this is the SS Rank Trial, the highest difficulty in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan muttered his niceties, "Well, I really have no objections in allowing you to apany me but I have just agreed to join hands with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s party. If she allows it then I have no other objections."

    To Ji Yuan''s surprise, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping simply said. "I have no objections."

    Mo Beiughed and said, "In this case, I hope that Junior Ji Yuan will make an introduction for us here."

    Ji Yuan thought: They did not know each other? I would be wrong with my malevolent sense?

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled briefly before she said, "Actually we do have one more malepanion with us that we will like him to join us. Hopefully you don''t mind?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised as he said, "Sure, sure."

    This party is sure crowded¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping pped her hands and a shy cultivator had suddenly appeared on the distant ridge.

    He was Hua Yingxiong from the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire whom Ji Yuan had taken his godly robe from but he had since given it to Qiu Xiuyu.

    Hua Yingxiong respectfully smiled awkwardly, "My respects to Great Hero Ji Yuan. I hope that you can forget the past enmities."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What happened to all your saints'' protectors?"

    Hua Yingxiong said ruefully, "They are either dead or lost. So far, it is only me. But maybe I can still meet remnants of my celestial n when we are elsewhere."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Maybe."

    Then he forced himself to grin, "Alright then. It seems that we have a big group now and can enter the forest now. Good luck and hope we didn''t get swallow by the deste beasts in the forest."

    JI Yuan saw that the others had also formed their own groups.

    One particr team seemed to have evolved their tactics on following his team¡­

    When he saw that, he was immediately growling.

    Ji Yuan immediately introduced Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan to Hua Yingxiong. With that, they were one happy group of cultivators and were ready to storm the final trial now.<sub> </sub>

    But everyone failed to see that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had been trembling earlier and she seemed to be hiding something¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Some time ago in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was alone when she was being attacked by Great Saint Jin Dahai who had announced that he was from the Evil Cultivation Pce and that he would make a living furnace out of her.

    The two of them began to fight for a while and their battles were astonishing since they were both great saints.

    But somehow Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was not able to ovee her opponent despites using many of her trump cards.

    The power of a Dark Alchemist was simply too terrifying and this Great Saint Jin Dahai hade prepared with his many runic spirit talismans. Where else others needed to pay extortionate prices for their one use runic spirit talismans, they did not need to for he could make his own and even reserve the best for himself.

    She had even burnt her essence to escape this heretic cultivator but to no avail. Even her mystical robe was burnt by his corrosive attacks and had exposed her breasts.

    But she was a great saint, a leader of the Endless Celestial Fraternity and also a mighty matriarch leader of her own Holy Oracle Sect; she would not allow her pure primeval yin to be taken by this beast of a man. She had long known of the terrifying reputation of the Evil Cultivation Pce and their beastly methods.

    But Great Saint Jin Dahai simply could not let her go and he even taunted her, "I have long desired your body and have long entertained the thoughts of copting with you. Muhahaha¡­"

    "Then you can dream on! For I will not allow you to do as you want. You may even find that I am a hard nut to crack!" Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping hummed coldly and flew up the nearest cliff; she had no time to cover up the tears that were in her upper body.

    Great Saint Jin Dahaiughed behind her, "I really love your two cute little bunnies. Why don''t you surrender your pure primeval yin to me?"

    As he said, all of a sudden two blue startling light had shed from a cave and had struck Great Saint Jin Dahai and he was yelling aloud as he stumbled backward while shouting. "Impossible! You are not dead yet!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could see that although these two blue sh of lights were really powerful but they had failed to prate through to the protective barrier that had surrounded Great Saint Jin Dahai.

    A dark figure had suddenly shed out of the cave and had grabbed her, "Don''t be rm. I''ve setup my defensive arrays here. He won''t get in for the time being. You will be safe with me and you can even use the time to recuperate back some of your profound strength."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was conscious that her upper body was naked but at the same time she was startled by the dark figure who was a bearded cultivator and she could not resist asking him, "Who are you? And why are you here?"

    The beard cultivatorughed softly, "I am Mo Bei from the Mo n! You''re from the Holy Oracle Sect? So surely you have heard of my name. We are both from the orthodox ns and therefore we have the samemon enemy."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was instantly relieved for she knew that Mo Bei had a high status in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and his Mo n was extremely rich!

 Chapter 465 The Final Trial Is Finally Opened (3)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had quickly taken out a new mystic robe from her spatial storage before she asked Mo Bei, "What are you doing here instead of fighting that evil cultivator?"

    Until now, she could still hear Great Saint Jin Dahai shouting, "It won''t be long before I can break down this defensive array and you will have wasted one profound treasure!"

    Mo Bei sighed softly, "As you can see, I am not his match."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping asked, "We can''t win even if the two of usbined?"

    Mo Bei managed a weak smile before he sighed, "It is extremely difficult. But if I can reach the next level of my Eons Divine Art then I will surely be able to defeat him. Unfortunately, I am only half a step to a breakthrough."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping immediately saw a glimmer of hope, "How long do you need? Maybe I can guard you long enough for it to happen?"

    Mo Bei shook his head with great sadness, "It is actually quite long and quite short at the same time. Forget¡­ about it!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping especially hated people that spoke halfway so she asked again, "You should finish what you had just said. We are in a crisis here and we need to analyze all the possibilities here."

    With a heavy sigh, Mo Bei finally said. "The Eons Divine Art is too heavy on the pure primeval yang. For me to breakthrough to the next level, I need at least fifty years. But if I can have a maiden with a pure primeval yin that can copte with me then I can surely have a breakthrough in my Eons Divine Art instantly."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked and she protested immediately, "I can''t possibly do that with you¡­ this is too hasty¡­"

    Mo Bei smiled weakly, "I''ve told you that I shouldn''t have mentioned this. I am right but you have insisted. However, you are really beautiful and attractive earlier."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was immediately flustered when she recalled that she had been naked in her upper body earlier and had identally exposed her white bosoms¡­

    Mo Bei sighed all of a sudden, "I really do not want to die. I''ve a bright future ahead of me and I can be the next super great saint. After Diviner Mo Ming, I am actually the next leader of the Mo n. Therefore I can''t allow myself to die in this case."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was also filled with sorrows when she had heard Mo Bei. "I understand. I didn''t want to die too. I am the Grand Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect and my sect is one of the three most powerful celestial ns in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. I am their leader and I cannot allow myself to fall in this hand, especially in the hands of the Evil Cultivation Pce that would defile my body."

    Mo Bei slowly nodded for he had agreed with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    All of a sudden he had taken out a misty glove from his spatial belt and said softly, "I believe that this misty glove is from the Holy Oracle Sect?."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked to see this misty glove. When her Ancestor Matriarch had gone missing in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth thousand of years ago, she did not expect that her descendants would fail to master the Melody Harmony Divine Art.

    Therefore only her Ancestor Matriarch''s misty glove and zither would give clues to the Melody Harmony Divine Art.

    Of course the effect of her Ancestor Patriarch''s zither had the best effect and was 100 times better. But after all these years, finding the zither was impossible and it may even get recycled by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    That was why she was shocked to see this misty glove and her divine sense had quickly picked up the profound signatures of her Ancestor Matriarch.

    And if she could bring this misty glove back to the Holy Oracle Sect, her name would be etched forever as the greatest of all the Holy Oracle Grand Matriarch and her name would be next to the Ancestor Matriarch herself.

    She looked softly at Mo Bei before saying, "Is it for trade?"

    Mo Bei looked passionately into her golden eyes before he nodded slowly, "Only if you''re willing. You''re the most beautiful maiden that I''ve ever seen."<sub> </sub>

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping seemed to ponder for a while: This Mo Bei is the son of the heavens. IN the future, he will be the leader of the Mo n. And I will be his wife. As far as I know, he is a good man and he did not have any consorts or harem. Until today, he is still a bachelor¡­"

    Finally she looked back into the passionate golden eyes that were from Mo Bei before she said firmly, "I can give you my primeval yin for this misty glove. Also, you must also take me as your consort. Is this a deal or not?"

    Mo Bei was delighted as he held onto her hands excitingly, "Deal of course! I can''t be happier than this. This must be the happiest day of my life! I swear to the heavens that I will only have you as my one and only consort!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was extremely touched to hear this and she was now flushing awkwardly like a little maiden. "Mo Bei, I love you¡­"

    Mo Bei promptly dered, "And I love you as well..."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping nodded shyly before she proceeded to loosen her belt and soon she had disrobe herself, letting her new mystic robe to drop onto the ground.

    She had revealed her silky naked shoulders to Mo Bei and had exposed her almost translucent bodice in front of him.

    Mo Bei could see her perky nipples behind her bodice.

    Her soul force was still bound onto her skirt but under Mo Bei passionate gaze, she too had dropped her skirt to reveal her white panties and ample white thigh.

    Mo Bei praised her, "Beautiful, beautiful! You are indeed the woman of my dreams!"

    He had also disrobed and had also pulled down his pants in a hurry.

    Just as Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was saying, "You ought to be gentle with me¡­", Mo Bei was already flushed with lust as he began to grope her ample full beasts and was already sticking his hands into her panties.

    She just gasped softly for a while before undoing the soul bound that was on her bodice and her panties, allowing Mo Bei to rip her undies apart, exposing her nakedness to him.

    Mo Bei was quick to part her legs and he had exposed his huge rod and he was now trying to force it into her wet valley between her legs.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked, "This thing is so big. Can it go inside?"

    Mo Bei was flushed with tion as he said, "Not only that. I can also go inside your two other holes as well."

    "I am going in¡­" he grinned and he had prated through her pussy hole, opening up her virginity mightily and into her womb.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could not help but to moan with some extremities moaning. "Mo Bei¡­ please¡­ you are going in too fast and too hard¡­"

    There were tiny tears that were forming in her eyes as Mo Bei had entered in into her womb, ripping part the thin skin of her precious pure primeval yin.

    Today Mo Bei was going to im her pure primeval yin and there was no one to stop him!

    He grinned, "The more painful you are, the more throughout it is. Tonight, you are mine and I will make you into a true woman."

 Chapter 466 The Final Trial Is Finally Opened (4)

    It was all a lie!

    A big lie!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping found herself clinging to ''Mo Bei'' but he was actually Grand Elder Jin Qiang from the Evil Cultivation Pce and next to her, her enemy Jin Dahai was now toying her.

    However she did not resist Jin Dahai now who was also a grand elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce because she was now their living furnace.

    She was a mighty lofty great saint and leader of the Holy Oracle Sect from the Endless Celestial Fraternity was being toyed by two men from the Evil Cultivation Pce and she had no will to resist their lusty advances.

    It was her fault; if she had not thought that this man was Mo Bei and the cultivation wealth that she could enjoy, she would not be in this state.

    The two evil grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Pce had actually nted a ruse on her.

    For them to defeat her together was all too easy but they had to break her will to put their soul marks into her soul sea as to make her into their living furnace.

    Jin Dahai wasughing wickedly now, "Brother, you didn''t leave a lot of her primeval yin for me."

    But Jin Qiang simplyughed it off, "This is my turn now. She is indeed a treasure among treasures. With her around, maybe things won''t be so boring in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Jin Dahai nodded, "We still have our orders to kill that sneaky Ji Yuan."

    Jin Qiang nodded, "Don''t worry about it, brother. If we can''t catch him on the lower levels, it is actually normal. When we are at the higher level, the number of worlds will be reduced. In fact, we will all be in the final trial together. All we need to do is to catch him and then to kill him."

    "Agree." Jin Dahai said. "We have already watched his fights on numerous times and we already know that his strongest sword art is the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. It is just too weak even against one of us. Does the Evil Cultivation Pce need to send us on this mission? Isn''t the Death God Mingwang enough toplete the mission?"

    Jin Qiang quietly lowered his voice to hiss, "That Death God Mingwang may be enough but he is totally unpredictable and may end up killing the intended targets. He has no interest in our dual cultivation arts¡­"

    "I''ve almost forgotten about this." Jin Dahai interrupted softly as though he was afraid of being overheard by the Death God Mingwang. "Damn him and his avatars. Quite a few of our cultivators, including our elders had already been identally killed by him."

    Jin Qiang nodded quietly as he sighed softly, "He says he is killing the living furnaces but I can tell that he is just killing everyone. He is actually more evil than us."

    Jin Dahai hissed, "Remember this. If the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is here, we must capture her and give her to the Evil Cultivation Master and the Great Demon Lord. Her primeval yin is really precious to our cause and she is the first one to finally attain to the eighth level of her Sacred Maiden Profound Arts. That is the reason why we have been waiting for thousands of years."

    "That Zhao Songjin is really useless." Jin Qiang could not help cursing her. "She was supposed to be our mole but she had turned against us."

    Jin Dahai nodded angrily, "We should have turned her into our living furnace in the first ce but could not lest her identity in the Celestial Orthodox Sect would be exposed."

    Although Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was now their depraved ve and could not resist against theirmands, she forced herself to listen in to their conversations so that she may gain any valuable information that could be used against them while she was pleasuring them.

    Jin Dahai had suddenly grabbed Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s left breast and squeezed her nipple hard and there was a milk stuff that had suddenly appeared. "Do you know what it is meant to be a living furnace? Your breasts will start toctate milk to nourish us with your primeval yin and to advance our cultivation. You will also be our depraved ve that cannot refuse us."

    Although Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was angry inside her, she pretended to be docile and said quietly, "Yes master."

    Jin Dahai praised her, "Good! Good!"

    Then he said to her, "Even though you are a supreme living furnace but there are two of us. Therefore we want you to bring us victims. With your lofty status, it is easier for you than for us. Do you understand what I mean?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping nodded slowly as she swallowed up the cum that was suddenly into her mouth by Jin Qiang before saying, "I will get masters many, many ves."

    Jin Dahai was pleased and he said to Jin Qiang, "Hehe, this bitch is so docile and so rich!"

    Jin Qiang grinned as the two of them had just finished examining her spatial items and had distributed her profound treasures between the two of them.

    He then grabbed Xi Jingping''s neck all of a sudden as he smiled, "If you can prove your loyalty to us, we may even teach you how to be dual cultivators like us. In this way, you may live longer. As you know, living furnaces will all die eventually. If you treasure your remaining primeval yin then work hard for us and for yourself."

    -

    -

    -

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had delivered upon her promises to Jin Qiang and Jin Dahai. She did not have the choice to resist theirmands.<sub> </sub>

    She only had the choice of carrying out theirmands and she chose to work very hard for it because she was too lofty to die inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; she must definitely outlive them!

    She had captured five golden celestials for them to feast upon and to make into a living furnace.

    Two of them were fifth realm golden celestials and they did notst very long.

    One was a saintess and she was also a virgin but she did notst very long.

    Two were sixth realm golden supremacies. One of them were actually from her own Holy Oracle Sect and it was easy to trick her. Unfortunately she did notst for too long either.

    Thest golden supremacy was actually Qin Shuang and she too was tricked and made into a living furnace.

    Both Jin Dahai and Jin Qiang were very pleased with Qin Shuang because she was a virgin and her primeval yin was very pure.

    Like Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Qin Shuang was forced to be their living furnace and she was also forced to serve Xi Jingping.

    Every night, Qin Shuang wouldment her woeful fate but there was nothing she could do. The only hero in her heart was Ji Yuan but even Ji Yuan could not save her from her woeful fate. Many times, she had thought of suicide¡­

    As for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, she would always be naked in front of her two masters and hadmanded everyone to do the same as well. There was totally no disobedient that could be seen from her.

    But for poor Qin Shuang, she was given double theshings and she was forced to repay twice the torments with her primeval yin.

    Finally one day, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had kneeled naked in front of Jin Qiang and Jin Dahai, saying to them. "Masters, do you think that I did good?"

    Jin Qiang looked at her curiously, "You seem to have something to say. Speak!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping humbly said, "Masters promise me to teach me the Dual Cultivation Arts. I am willing to learn. I believe that I will make a good chess piece for my two masters by being the leader of the Holy Oracle Sect. Also, the Holy Oracle Sect have uncountable number of chaste maidens and is ranked as the top three celestial ns in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. Whether they are golden celestials, golden supremacies or even chaste and beautiful saintess, I can offer them all to you."

    Jin Dahai was already gulping when he had heard her.

    Chaste beautiful saintess. That is what he had always wanted. He wanted to bang as many saintesses in his life as much as possible. Their primeval yin is so pure and they are so sexual¡­

    Even Jin Qiang was also moved but they had to keep a straight face!

    Jin Qiang pretended tough, "Then we can''t enjoy you alone and we have to share with the other men for you. You are our precious great saintess. How can anyone rece you?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping slowly smiled, "I can always bring you more great saintess from my Holy Oracle Sect. As you know, they are all great beauties."

    Jin Qiang and Jin Dahai were both looking at each other¡­

    "Also, I am still yours anytime. Even though I may have dual cultivated with the other men but they are all my living furnaces. You will always be my masters and I will never be tired of copting with the two of you." She added meaningfully to them.

    Once again, Jin Qiang and Jin Dahai looked at each other; if they''ve taught her the Evil Cultivation Art then she will regain her free will and will no longer be their depraved ves.

    Finally they nodded.

    Jin Qiang began to smile, "Grand Matriarch Xi, from today onward, you are one of us now."

    They had to admit that she was right and her proposals would benefit them immensely. Moreover with her status, no one would know that she was actually an Evil Cultivator.

    Jin Dahai was suddenly smiling, "I''ve heard that your Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing is also in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Is that right?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile, "If my masters desire her, I can deliver her chastity for you to feast. And also all the female cultivators that are from my Holy Oracle Sect. They will be delivered for your pleasure."

    Jin Qiang began tough wickedly in eager anticipation and so did Jin Dahai.

    Unfortunately, these two lofty grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Sect did not anticipate that they would be killed by Ji Yuan and the Death God Mingwang shortly afterward.

    And Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was surprised by her sudden freedom...

 Chapter 467 Into The Iron Desolate Forest (1)

    There were only four men in the party; namely Ji Yuan, Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and Hua Yingxiong. Naturally they also acted like they were the bravest cultivator and had taken the initiative to step into the Iron Deste Forests.

    The rest of the female cultivators began to follow behind them.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were the best of friends but they could not resist stepping on each other. While it was not a surprise for those that knows them, it was a surprise to the others that they would have such a thick face without fighting with each other.

    Added one more Mo Bei who always seemed to be at logger logs with Ji Yuan, the vanguard group was extremely loud. It seemed like they were in for a pic instead of a trial.

    Hua Yingxiong was actually the quieter one but Ji Yuan kept forcing him to side with him as he said, "They are definitely wrong. Hua Yingxiong, do you agree with me?"

    He could only mutter weakly, "I totally agree with Great Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    While his body was with Ji Yuan, Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan but his lusty eyes were actually with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Qin Shuang.

    "He is definitely taking the wrong step in the wrong direction." Xiao Muhan insisted.

    "I totally agree with this. My divine sense tells me that we should go right instead of left." Mo Bei pointed out.

    Ji Yuan disagreed immediately, "Trust me. I am the master of the wilderness!"

    Behind Ji Yuan, Feng Minyue was secretly whispering to Ling Feiyue. "Do you think that Qin Shuang seems to be acting weirdly? She seems to be following Grand Matriarch Xi rather tightly."

    Ling Feiyue nodded lightly, "While it is weird but it is also the norm. We are never close with her in the first ce."

    Yu Jingjing was walking with Feng Minyue as she had treated her as her very best friend. She had naturally heard her. She smiled, "Maybe Qin Shuang has the intention to join our celestial sect?"

    She had suddenly pulled Yang Mi to them and said, "I am sure that you know that she is Yang Mi. She is also my best friend in the Holy Oracle Sect and I want to introduce her to my sisters here."

    Feng Minyue smiled, "It is good that you have a best friend in the Holy Oracle Sect."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "Who are your sisters here? Or you are thinking of joining our harem and be with Ji Yuan?"

    Yu Jingjing was now flushing shyly, "Keep our noise down please. I have not told my grand matriarch yet. I am the Holy Oracle Priestess¡­ I can''t leave like this¡­"

    She actually had the intention of leaving the Endless Celestial Fraternity to be with Ji Yuan...

    When Ling Feiyue saw that Yang Mi was also listening onto their conversations, she knew that Yu Jingjing must have trust Yang Mi a lot so she was also quite casual with her words. "But it seems that you really want to, am I right?"

    ? Yu Jingjing hesitated for a while as she looked at the shocked Yang Mi before she firmly said, "I really want to be with Ji Yuan. I am willing to give up my position as the Holy Oracle Priestess as well as my Ancestor Matriarch''s zither to the Holy Oracle Sect. I feel that my life in the past is not worth living!"

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Yang Mi were all quite startled by Yu Jingjing''s brave and firm words. That was because she was very firm about her beliefs!

    Away from them, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping were walking with Qin Shuang.

    Along the way, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was thinking angrily to herself; she had been tricked by a mere misty glove while her direct prot¨¦g¨¦ who was also the Holy Oracle Priestess had the Ancestor Matriarch''s zither.

    To think that she had to give up her chaste body for an inferior misty glove while Yu Jingjing got the direct inheritance of her Ancestor Matriarch without even losing her chasity.

    Just thinking about this was enough to infuriate her!

    For the orthodox fraternity, she had sacrificed a lot and she had been defiled by the two grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Soon after she had begun to practice the Evil Cultivation Arts, Qin Shuang had told her that her soul marks had disappeared. It must be because their two masters were dead.

    At first Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not believe her. How could two lofty great saints be dead all of a sudden?

    But she had to ept this as the truth because they had never returned even though she had waited for them for a full day.

    It was because she knew that both of them hadscivious appetites and they would never leave their bodies alone even for half a day.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping knew that Qin Shuang knew of her secret and that originally, she had wanted to kill her. But short afterward they had dumped into Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi who had recognized their grand matriarch.

    Therefore she had stayed her hand for the time being.

    Qin Shuang was smarter than she thought and she knew that Grand Matriarch Xi would not let her off. So she said, "It is pointless to kill me. I am a living furnace anyway and without primeval yang, I will wither and die anyway. I am a whore but so are you. If you don''t kill me then I am willing to be your depraved ve."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had considered for a while and indeed she had wanted Qin Shuang to suffer as she did. Therefore she said to her, "If you allow me to nt a soul mark into your soul sea and be my depraved ve then I have no issue about this."

    Qin Shuang answered nonchntly, "I have no issue about it. I am just changing my previous soul mark for yours."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingpingughed after she had nted a soul mark on Qin Shuang, "Then you shall be my sexually depraved ve and you have to obey mymands. Look at you, your primeval yin is so little. Why don''t I get you a man?"

    The very reason why Qin Shuang had agreed to be Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s ve was because she had given up on her life but she would not give up without a single fight!

    She had intended to live long enough to expose this Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping!

    When she looked at Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi, there was great sadness in her golden eyes. She had actually intended to inform Yu Jingjing and the Holy Oracle Sect that their Grand Matriarch Xi had be an Evil Cultivator.

    But she just was not able to tell them about this information!

    It was because Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping herself was a recent depraved ve and she knew her thoughts very well. Therefore she had put several restrictions andmands on her.

    She was much more ruthless than she had thought, even more ruthless than the two grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled at her naivety, "It is not easy to free yourself from a great saintess, don''t you think so, my dearest Qin Shuang¡­ now serve me with all your heart."

    A few days after meeting Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi, the Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had found Hua Yingxiong alone.

    She was delighted.

    At first, Hua Yingxiong did not know of her intentions; he was respectful toward her as he had recognized her background as from the Holy Oracle Sect and also from the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

    Then to his shocked look, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was suddenly stripping herself in front of him as she attempted to seduce him by loosing her belt and skirt.

    She had left her robe on for him to imagine her perky bosoms inside.<sub> </sub>

    Then she began to pull down her panties and Hua Yingxiong saw that there were long strands of sticky stuff that appeared to drip down from her legs and also in her panties.

    "This is¡­?!" He asked.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling seductively, "Do you agree that we all need allies in the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Hua Yingxiong gulped hard, "Yes we do¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled further, "We are forbidden to speak of what happens inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for good reasons. No one will know of our affairs while we are inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Therefore I think that this is the best way for us to have some little fun while forging an alliance together."

    Hua Yingxiong was staring hard and he was almost drooling, "I don''t disagree."

    "Then do you want to enter into the forbidden ground of a great saintess? I am willing to copte with you. Naturally I want your protection and I hope that you can protect me." Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile seductively.

    Hua Yingxiong said awkwardly, "Grand Matriarch Xi must be joking. I am only a saint while you are a great saintess. You can crush me like an ant."

    Grand Matriarch Xi shook her head gently, "You are rich cultivator with a formidable background and has a rich future. Maybe in the future when you are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth again, you will still remember me."

    Hua Yingxiong immediately said, "I will surely remember you."

    He was indeed staring very hard because he had never banged a great saintess before. He knew that she had already taken off her panties and she had nothing inside...

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping flew gently toward him and she had suddenly disrobed herself, showing her beautiful naked body to Hua Yingxiong.

    It was at this point that Hua Yingxiong found himselfpletely losing control of himself.

    He began to grab Grand Matriarch Xi and to open her legs to admire her naked valley from below before hastily undressing himself.

    He squeezed both her soft boobs tightly and repeatedly, "I want to enter into you now."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled as she admired the naked Hua Yingxiong, "Before we copte together, may I introduce you to one more person?"

    Hua Yingxiong was stunned, "One more person?"

    Qin Shuang had suddenly appeared and she was naked.

    Hua Yingxiong was suddenly very pleased for Qin Shuang was really very beautiful and he wanted to experience her immediately.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "My Qin Shuang and I will pleasure you whenever you need."

    "Really? Hahaha¡­ it is so good." Hua Yingxiong admitted and he was groping Grand Matriarch Xi in one hand and another hand he was groping Qin Shuang''s breasts.

    Then he saw milk flowing from Qin Shuang''s nipples and he was curious.

    "My Qin Shuang has just given birth. That is why. But don''t you like it?" Grand Matriarch Xi casually exined away.

    Her own milk had since dried up because she was no longer a living furnace.

    Hua Yingxiong did not care for any of the reasons. He was only interested to bang them furiously and to satisfy his own lusts.

    Qin Shuang almost cried aloud when Hua Yingxiong was pushing his fingers into her moisty valley but she had to obey themands of Xi Jingping to unbound the soul force that held her sexuality.

    When Hua Yingxiong saw that Qin Shuang was so wet, he was extremely pleased and he banged Qin Shuang more than Grand Matriarch Xi.

    However Grand Matriarch Xi did not mind as she said to Hua Yingxiong, "You can also make her swallow all your primeval yang. She will finish every single drop just to pleasure you. Have fun."

    Hua Yingxiong was not polite at all and he did as he was told!

    After toying with both Qin Shuang and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, an exhausted Hua Yingxiong looked extremely pleased with himself.

    To his surprise, Grand Matriarch Xi told him another piece of good news. "How about I let you y with my Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing and my young saintess Yang Mi?"

    Hua Yingxiong was stumbled for words, "I''ve thought that the Holy Oracle Priestess needs to be a chaste maiden forever?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingpingughed softly, "For your sake, I will let you bang her and I can always find a new recement."

    Hua Yingxiong was delighted immediately and he was already thinking of banging Yu Jingjing.

    While Hua Yingxiong was in ecstasy, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had shot Qin Shuang a quiet look. It was as though she was saying: I have now taken his primeval yang and he is now my living furnace. Qin Shuang, now that you have obtained some of his primeval yang, you will be serving me a little longer.

    She added wryly to herself: Jingjing and Yang Mi, because I am your beloved mistress, that is why I want you to join me to practice the dark arts of the Evil Cultivation Pce. With our heaven-defying looks, we will make all the men as our living furnaces.

    But before she could set her ns into notion, the final trial had already begun and she was forced to enter into the purple portal with Qin Shuang, Hua Yingxiong, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were actually surprised that their Grand Matriarch Xi had brought Hua Yingxiong along as an ally.

    Since she was their sect''s leader and grand matriarch, they naturally did not dare to question their master and readily epted this neer.

    It was then that they had all dumped into Ji Yuan and his group, including Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan.

    Never had Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping expected herself to meet the real Mo Bei here.

    But looking at his character, she now knew the reason why he had not found his opposite half. It was because he was both stingy andme at the same time!

    But nevertheless, she was determined to make Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and especially Ji Yuan into her living furnace at the same time.

    As for the rest, she would give them an option to be evil cultivators like herself or be her depraved female ves.

    She was now smiling to herself when these thoughts had crossed her mind!

    Unknown to her, ''Dream Mist'' or the Great Beyond Goddess could see her divine heart and she was shaking her head: This Grand Matriarch Xi Jinping practices the evil cultivation arts and it has now corrupted her. Does she not know how impure her soul is?

    She was soon cursing Ji Yuan silently: He has a pure soul but everything that he does is totally impure¡­

 Chapter 468 Into The Iron Desolate Forest (2)

    Although the Great Beyond Goddess could see the nefarious heart of Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, she kept quiet about it. It was because she was merely an observer in her creations and she did not want to interfere with the affairs of the Six Divine Realms.

    That was why she had created ''Xiang Li'' to give hope to the pure heart so that the weak would not lose hope. For anyone less than pure heart, Xiang Li would not appear in the first ce.

    She however, had a look of pity on Qin Shuang though; she can see that her soul is still incorruptible and she is trying to resist the soul marks that are on her. In fact, there are numerous times that she has wanted to inform Ji Yuan and his party but her restrictions will forcibly suppress her will.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was cold by nature. To her, the lives of these cultivators were over in a blink of an eye while she was the true eternal goddess.

    However, she had taken an interest in Yun Chi who was almost like her and she was even expecting a child.

    This was a great surprise to her¡­

    Yun Chi on the other hand was wary of ''Dream Mist''. It was because she did not believe that a mere high level spirit entity would be able to take her blows previously. Although Dream Mist had almost lost to Bai Qianfeng because Ji Yuan''s soul sea was exhausted, Yun Chi continued to suspect her.

    But the Great Beyond Goddess merely met her intense zes casually and there was nothing Yun Chi could do to her.

    She also knew that Yun Chi was now trying to protect her child and would not act rashly.

    It was a waiting game for the both of them but it was a game that could only benefit the Great Beyond Goddess for she was merely an observer.

    She was intrigued by both Ji Yuan and Xiang Li¡­

    Her thoughts were quickly interrupted by Ji Yuan who was suddenly shouting from among the tall ironwoods and he was shouting in great rm at the team of cultivators that were following them.

    "Stop immediately! There are several dangerous arrays by your side!"

    This team was trying to follow Ji Yuan at a great distance through the thick ironwoods and because they were trying not to alert Ji Yuan and his party, they had purposely walked the other way.

    JI Yuan had a much sharper malevolent sense than the others and moreover he had Senior Mo Bei to warn him so he was able to avoid almost all the dangerous arrays and to lead his party to safety.

    But the cultivators from the other team had triggered a dangerous array that spanned a hundred miles!

    Immediately there were hundreds of dark phantoms appearing from the deadly hidden arrays.

    These dark phantoms were formed from the deste energies of the arrays and were not weak at all!

    Typically a fifth realm golden celestial was able to handle one and a seventh realm golden saint was able to handle five with ease.

    But there were literally hundreds of them and every cultivator was forced to fight at least ten of these things.

    The dark phantoms had deadly attacks that could corrode through the protective clothes of the cultivators and even affected their profound recovery.

    Ji Yuan was not slowed to react as he quickly cut down four dark phantoms that were in front of him with his saintly divine sword and his sword energies had also helped Xiao Muhan to cut down two dark phantoms.

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly as he fended off eight of the dark phantoms that were surrounding him, "Um¡­ thanks brother."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You''re wee brother."

    The saintly sword that was in Ji Yuan''s hand was actually Xiang Li and Ji Yuan did not hesitate in using it to y his enemies.

    Anyang looked a little hurt that Ji Yuan did not use her so she said: My lord! You did not use Anyang! I am now much stronger than Xiang Li!

    Ji Yuan answered weakly: I am just too used in using Xiang Li. Previously you are only an immortal sword but now you are a saint sword. With my seventh realm great saint cultivation strength, I can barely lift you up. Haha¡­

    It was the truth.

    Ji Yuan had tried to show off his great profound strength and recovery by lifting two saint-step divine swords at full power but it turned out he was being slowed and his profound energies were depleting at a much faster rate than he could recover.

    But that was not the real point.

    The real point here was that he was expecting to use his eighth realm cultivation profound might via his spirit animus.

    Therefore he could only say weakly to Anyang: Stay where you are first. I will use youter when I''ve encountered a much stronger foe. These foes are moving too fast for me to use two saint swords!

    It was the truth. In order to kill these dark phantoms very quickly, Ji Yuan had to use his sword arts more than usual.

    He was even forced to disy his miracle sword art, the Thousands Sacred Swords!

    Dozens of images began to splinter all around him as Ji Yuan took down one dark phantom after another, totaling thirty.

    Each of the illusional sword had the profound power of a single Heaven Light of the Coiling Dragon!

    This was not lost on Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping who was secretly observing Ji Yuan: This is a miracle sword art and he had also a saint-step divine sword?!

    Mo Bei grumbled softly as he took out three dark phantoms, "Are you trying to show off in front of me?"<sub> </sub>

    An exhausted Ji Yuan said breathlessly, "I am trying to prevent the majority of these dark phantoms from reaching my party members. Why don''t you fight a bit harder?"

    But all of a sudden he was stunned when Mo Bei had suddenly left him and Xiao Muhan¡­

    It was because Mo Bei''s sharp eyes had seen that Maiden Qin Shuang was in trouble.

    Her Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was fighting against twelve of the dark phantoms while Qin Shuang was forced to fight eight of the dark phantoms all by self.

    Mo Bei had immediatelye to her aid as he shattered the deste energies of the dark phantom that was nearest to her, "Are you alright Maiden Qin Shuang?"

    Qin Shuang gasped softly and was startled that Mo Bei still have the room to rescue her.

    Mo Bei grinned, "You are just a golden supremacy while I am a great saint. You can''t defeat these dark phantoms on your own even if you have a saintly divine sword."

    Qin Shuang was about to thank him but when she had heard hisme rebuke, she decided not to answer him anymore¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had heard Mo Bei naturally and she could only wryly say to herself: This Mo Bei is indeed true to his character and he is indeedme. It''s no wonder that he can''t find his cultivation dao partner.

    Ji Yuan had naturally saw that Qin Shuang was in trouble and before he could shout for Xiao Muhan or Hua Yingxiong to go to Qin Shuang''s aid immediately, Mo Bei had already gone to her aid.

    This caused Ji Yuan to curse Mo Bei silently; it was because Mo Bei was the second most capable fighter in the vanguard and he had just abandoned him to tank even more dark phantoms. If he was given a choice, Ji Yuan would also go to Qin Shuang''s aid.

    Far behind Ji Yuan and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Bai Qianfeng had released her two seventh rank deste beasts and they were crushing the dark phantoms left and right. For those dark phantoms that were near her, she would immediately in them with her celestial-step divine sword.

    Ji Yuan gulped weakly when he saw that: What a terrifying maiden. Luckily my Qianfeng is on my side.

    With Bai Qianfeng around, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Yun Chi and Dream Mist did not have many dark phantoms to deal with.

    However the same could not be said for the other team; three of the cultivators were killed and five were forced to use their golden talisman to escape before they had in all the dark phantoms.

    Ji Yuan took a little longer to finish killing all the dark phantoms as he was cleaning the perimeters.

    After he was done, he saw that his team was now bigger than the other team.

    However the other team of eight continued to maintain their distance from their team and did not even bother to send in a token of gratitude.

    Ji Yuan did not bother with them since he knew how lofty the high level cultivators were and they had always thought that they were the only sons and daughters of the heavens.

    He did not notice that there was one robed cultivator from among the eight cultivators that bear great animosity toward Ji Yuan.

    He was supposed to be dead and killed by the Devil Goddess Fan Yuqing; his name is Jin Yilong!

    When the Devil Goddess had used a sword to pierce his heart, he had thought that he was dead for sure¡­

    He was in a cahoots with the Dark Cultivation Pce to kill Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth because he had always feared Ji Yuan and he had also believed that Ji Yuan was a hindrance to him.

    The Devil Goddess had tricked him with a Mystic Star Profound Pill that could enhance his cultivation level but instead, she had given him an extremely rare sixth rank divine pill that turned him into a woman.

    Rather to say he was a real woman, it was better to say that he was not a true woman or a true man now.

    The Devil Goddess had patiently waited for him to digest the effects of this divine pill into his soul sea before telling him the truth.

    In the entire celestial fraternity, only the Devil Goddess would expend such a great expenses of cultivation resources to concoct something so useless such as the gender changing divine pill.

    When Jin Yilong had awakened from his injuries, he had thought that he was dead; the Devil Goddess had literally taken him on a rollercoaster ride¡­

    That was not the end of his troubles; in his weaken state he was picked up by the two grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce and was mistaken as a female cultivator. Before he had realized it, he was made into their living furnace.

    He was literally screaming at them when he had regained his consciousness, "I am Jin Yilong! I''m on your side!"

    "You¡­ look so different without your beard¡­" Great Saint Jin Qiang stammered out.

    Great Saint Jin Dahai almost puked, "I''ve thought that you are just in ugly and I''m forced to have whatever little primeval yin that you''ve."

    The two grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Pce, Great Saint Jin Qiang and Great Saint Jin Dahai then hurriedly left in great disgust, pretending that they had never encountered him.

    Jin Yilong was filled with hatred for Ji Yuan and the Devil Goddess. As a living furnace, his cultivation realm would never increase again and moreover he had to depend on the primeval yang of the male cultivators in order to survive.

    But there was a little problem; he was too ugly to attract the male cultivators.

    It was a lucky thing that he was a saint cultivator and he could have his way with the weaker male cultivators.

 Chapter 469 The Long Night (1)

    In just two days Ji Yuan and his entourage had emerged from the monstrous Iron Deste Forest. For two days, they had traveled nonstop.

    It was not without any incident though.

    Just today they had seen a monstrous eighth rank immortal ss deste beast.

    It was going to be a tough fight for sure because none of the cultivators in Ji Yuan were willing to show their trump card.

    Ji Yuan had wanted to use his ultimate miracle sword art the Sacred Swords to fight back this monstrous monster.

    But Ling Feiyue had told him that he should keep his ultimate sword art a secret first.

    Instead they should disy theirbined sword art the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon first.

    It had been a long time since they hadst used theirbined sword art together and it was more powerful than Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    The profound effect surprised even Ji Yuan''s expectation and had caused the deste monster to flee.

    Ling Feiyue had an alluring smile in her countenance, "It is alright. Since the deste monster has fled, there is no need for us to waste more profound strength to chase it."

    JI Yuan agreed; the life forces of these deste monsters are too rich and they could easily regenerate their wounds. It is best to stop while they have their advantages.

    All the others were awed by Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyuebined sword arts. It was becausebined sword arts were extremely difficult to form. Moreover it seemed that Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan had already formed theirbined sword art a long time ago!

    If one was to say that they were not a close couple, it was really difficult to believe!

    Ji Yuan merelyughed, "Haha¡­ this is nothing at all."

    There were envious looks in Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and even from Yang Mi!

    Ling Feiyue quickly grabbed Ji Yuan''s hands as she asked him, "Do you still remember the name of ourbined sword art?"

    "Erm¡­" Ji Yuan began to hesitate for a while before he asked Xiang Li: what is the name of ourbined sword art?

    Xiang Li answered weakly: Flying Coiling Dragon Sword?

    Ji Yuan answered her weakly: That is the name of my sword energies¡­

    Ling Feiyue asked again, "Ji Yuan?"

    But Ji Yuan had ran away with a guilty look, "There may be more monsters ahead. Let me scout ahead. All of you walk slowly!"

    It was a lucky thing that Ji Yuan had quickly found the edge of the Iron Deste Forest. However it was nightfall now and they had decided to camp for the night.

    -

    -

    -

    When cultivators camp for the night, the area of their vicinity could sometimes cover arge area as they would need some quiet time for their meditation.

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue had chosen to meditate next to Ji Yuan.

    It was something that Ji Yuan did not mind for he could touch them secretly. As a matter of fact, he was already groping them under their robes¡­

    Ling Feiyue looked a little perplexed as she whispered to Ji Yuan, "Your Qianfeng didn''t choose to meditate with us. She is still with Yun Chi. Howe they are suddenly so close? Do you have any idea?"

    Ji Yuan kept a straight face as his fingers moved under Ling Feiyue''s bodice and was fondling her perked breasts while his other hand was forcing his way into Feng Minyue''s moist undies that was under her skirt.

    "I don''t see anything wrong. Maybe they just decide to be best of friends? Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue stared at Ji Yuan for a while before she sighed softly, "I give up. You must have known something or else you will be jumping into that Yun Chi''s bed. You just don''t want to tell me. Puff!"

    Seeing that Ling Feiyue was getting angry and sensing a soul force was about to push his fingers away from underneath her, Ji Yuan panicky whispered. "Alright, alright. I can tell you the reasons but you must keep this a reason, alright?"

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue eagerly pushed themselves closer to Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan whispered, "They are learning a new cultivation art to defeat the Death God Mingwang."

    Ling Feiyue gasped with shock, "Why didn''t they tell us?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Do you agree that I am not the match of the Death God Mingwang and that they are actually stronger than me?"

    Ling Feiyue nodded slightly as she absorbed this heaven-defying secret¡­

    "It is really rare for our lord Ji Yuan to admit that he can''t defeat the Death God Mingwang." Feng Minyue said with a slow nod.

    Ji Yuan pretended to inhale deeply, "Even though I want to be as awesome as any cultivator but sometimes I am forced to admit that I have low talent in learning new cultivation arts. I am nothing but a sword cultivator. Not a power cultivator, defense cultivator, spirit cultivator, alchemist cultivator or an array cultivator."

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue literally believed Ji Yuan and they felt a little sad that Ji Yuan was finally admitting that he had a low talent in cultivation arts.

    But Ji Yuan was adding in his soul sea: However, I''m a peaked great saint now and have alsopleted my True Sacred Saint Profound Arts. I am truly awesome!

    Xiang Li was also praising him: My Big Brother is totally awesome!

    Anyang rolled her eyes weakly: what are your hands doing now?

    It was because Ji Yuan''s two hands were now inside Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue undies and he was making them very wet¡­

    This caused Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue to be awkward.

    Ling Feiyue said to Ji Yuan, "Don''t¡­ there are still so many people around¡­"

    Ji Yuan whispered, "There is no one but us¡­"

    But all of a sudden, he began to shut up because Xiao Muhan had suddenly appeared and he seemed dejected.

    It seemed that he had juste in the direction of Yun Chi and she had rejected his advances.

    Ji Yuan cursed him softly: I told you that Yun Chi is mine. Mine!

    Xiang Li shook her fists: Go away! Yun Chi belongs to me!

    Anyang turned to look at Xiang Li: She belongs to you?!

    Xiang Li smiled: Of course!

    Ji Yuan frowned at Xiang Li: She is mine!

    Xiao Muhan had stopped near to where Ji Yuan could see him and he was rubbing his beard in soft resignation, "Since Yun Chi says she is busy talking with Maiden Bai Qianfeng, maybe I should talk with Maiden Dream Mist? She seems so alluring and lonely. Maybe she needs my apany¡­"

    With this though in his mind, he had walked away.

    Naturally Ji Yuan was not able to hear him or he would vomit blood immediately.

    -

    -

    -<sub> </sub>

    Yu Jingjing was naturally camping near Yang Mi, Qin Shuang and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping. They were originally from the same group.

    Although Yu Jingjing had wanted to camp with Ji Yuan but she knew that it was not allowed and she had to suppress her feelings.

    There was a reason why the Holy Oracle Priestess must be a chaste maiden and it was because only the Holy Oracle Priestess was able tomunicate with the Gods via divination. For that, the Holy Oracle Priestess has to preserve the pureness of her primeval yin body.

    But Yu Jingjing did not care to be a Holy Oracle Priestess now and she was constantly thinking about Ji Yuan. How she wished that Ji Yuan was a despicable man and that he had bedded her during their trial together¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly interrupted her thoughts by saying aloud, "Jingjing and Yang Mi, stay where you are. Qin Shuang and I are going to check the vicinity for a while. We will be back shortly."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi immediately answered respectfully, "We''ll abide our grand matriarch''s instructions."

    When Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Qin Shuang had left, Yu Jingjing suddenly turned to Yang Mi to chuckle softly. "Sister Saintess Yang Mi, why is that you are so flush in front of Ji Yuan?"

    The smiles that were on Yang Mi almost vanished and she had turned very red, "Non¡­ Nonsense! I''m not interested in him!"

    Although Yang Mi was always with Yu Jingjing but her alluring golden eyes were constantly looking at Ji Yuan and the redness in her countenances could not be masked easily.

    Yu Jingjing chuckled, "Or do you want me to perform an oracle to inquire for your heart?"

    Yang Mi giggled softly before she turned her head shyly away, "I¡­I just¡­find him a little too handsome¡­ that is all. Nothing special at all!"

    Just as Yu Jingjing wasughing softly with Yang Mi, they had suddenly spotted Mo Bei and they were startled to see him in their camp.

    "Senior Mo Bei, why are you here?"

    Mo Bei blinked his eyes nkly for a while before heughed aloud, "I was just wondering if Maiden Qin Shuang is here. It seems that she isn''t. Haha¡­"

    He wasughing like Ji Yuan now.

    Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi: ???

    "You are looking for Maiden Qin Shuang for?" Yu Jingjing asked him curiously.

    Mo Bei awkwardly answered, "Well, I''ve saved her in the earlier battle. I wonder if she wants to say thank you to me personally. Haha¡­"

    Yu Jingjing asked him weakly, "Why should she wants to thank you personally?"

    Mo Bei answered with some indignant, "That is because I''ve saved her, that is why."

    It was however not the entire reason. When Mo Bei had saved Qin Shuang, he had also identally held her waist and a lightning seemed to have strike him; he found her waist to be so soft and inviting that he was immediately curious about her.

    Yu Jingjing said with a straight face, "You are her senior. So saving her is the norm. If she is grateful to you, she will definitely look for you to give you her personal thanks. But I''ve never heard of someoneing to someone to ask for a personal thank."

    Yang Mi was covering her mouth and she was trying not tough aloud.

    Mo Bei weakly answered Yu Jingjing, "I don''t think you understand the reason why. Anyway, I am leaving now."

    With that he had left.

    When he had left, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi wereughing out loud as they embraced each other.

    They knew that this Senior Mo Bei was suddenly interested in Qin Shuang but he just could not find any reasons to talk to her. That was the reason why they were nowughing out now.

    Yu Jingjing had tried to put a straight face to pretend otherwise.

    In the previous battle, they had also tried to help Qin Shuang but Mo Bei was just too fast and he had aided Qin Shuang.

    However they could see that Qin Shuang had a bad impression of Mo Bei because Mo Bei was suddenly rebuking her.

    Yang Mi could not stop giggling, "Well, good luck to this Senior Mo Bei¡­"

    "How about you and Ji Yuan?" Teased Yu Jingjing.

    Yang Miughed, "I don''t want to be your rival in love!"

    -

    -

    -

    Matriarch Xi Jingping and Qin Shuang had naturally looked for Hua Yingxiong.

    When Hua Yingxiong saw them in his meditating campsite, he immediately got up to greet them. He was now getting impatient and he could not wait to bang them anymore.

    In fact, he wanted to strip them all naked and to bang them whole night.

    And he was taking off his robe now¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling at him, "Did we keep you waiting?"

    Hua Yingxiongughed, "Not at all. It is just nice. This night is meant for us. Finally, we can get some rest. This Ji Yuan is too perverted. We''ve been walking nonstop for the past two days."

    And he was now removing his pants.

    But when he saw that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Qin Shuang were still clothed, he was a little surprise.

    So he asked them, "What is wrong?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping exined with a wry smile, "We will naturally like to get banged hard by you for you are like no other men. But you ought to honor your part of the deal to protect us, am I right?"

    Hua Yingxiong was perplexed, "I did. I am in the vanguard. Naturally I am doing my best to protect you and everyone."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Naturally you are not wrong to say so. But the best form of protection is your golden talisman. If you can give me your golden talisman then this is considered the best form of protection."

    Hua Yingxiong was stunned, "If I give you my golden talisman then won''t I be vulnerable?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping pointed at Qin Shuang, "Look at my Qin Shuang. She is a whole realm lower than you. Naturally she will need more protection. I''m not asking for your golden talisman for my own sake but for her own sake. You should have already seen earlier how she had almost perished. If it is not for Mo Bei, I am afraid that she would already be forced to use her golden talisman. And getting back to us is also a dangerous undertaking."

    Hua Yingxiong answered impatiently, "Yes, yes. You are right¡­" And he had impatiently thrown the golden talisman to Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    He actually did not care for the actual reasons; he just wanted to bang Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Qin Shuang right away.

    When Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping got the golden talisman, she began to smile and she began stripping.

    With a fickle of her fingers, she hadmanded Qin Shuang to surrender her body to Hua Yingxiong.

    Hua Yingxiong took no time to ravage them viciously as he thought: I am going to bang this Xi whore now and fill her sopletely that she will surrender to me¡­

    But he was more gentle toward Qin Shuang because from her moaning sounds, he knew that she was in pain.

    Till now, Hua Yingxiong had no idea that he was actually Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s living furnace and that she had nted her ve mark into his soul sea.

    She could easily have asked for the golden talisman directly but she did not want Hua Yingxiong to know first that he had been her depraved ve all along. He was to be her trump card.

    When Hua Yingxiong was ravaging Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s naked body and spread her legs widely, she chuckled softly to him. "In a few more days, I will give you Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing bodies. Do you like the idea of possessing them?"

    When Hua Yingxiong had heard her, he began to ravage Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping even harder and even Qin Shuang''s two boobs were squeezed red with his hands, squirming a great deal of milk on his hungry lustful face and mouth.

 Chapter 470 The Long Night (2)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping actually did not want to fulfill Hua Yingxiong''s fantasies by allowing him to bang her the whole night.

    It was because she still had something to do and she was not one who would give up an advantage or else she would not be a great saintess.

    She had defeated numerous saintess on her way up the powerdder of the Holy Oracle Sect and she still remembered how a potential Holy Oracle Priestess and future Grand Matriarch was set upon by several cultivators and she got ravaged until her cultivation core was broken.

    So naturally she would not be the next Holy Oracle Priestess as she was no longer chaste.

    That was actually her doings, so to speak.

    Today the Holy Oracle Sect was filled with her own prot¨¦g¨¦s and disciples, with little opposition.

    She had merely told Hua Yingxiong, "You are tired now and should take a sleep first."

    And Hua Yingxiong had slumbered into a deep sleep.

    Qin Shuang was whimpering as she put on her clothes.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had actually ordered her not to speak unless she had willed her, giving her only simple word gestures like: Thank you, Sorry, Greetings¡­

    She had wanted Qin Shuang to be as loyal to her as possible until she could have more depraved ves.

    Moreover Qin Shuang was really a stunning maiden and even Ji Yuan could not help taunting her while he got whipped by her in the past; she had literally flogged Ji Yuan for three weeks thinking that it was torture for him but Ji Yuan was a golden saint that had disguised his cultivation realm and also he was mostly impervious to pain.

    She did not know that Ji Yuan already had the opportunity to escape but he felt a sense of guilt toward Xue Qianxue and he was suddenly feeling lost after he had banged her. So he had spent some time to ponder over his actions and of course, he had secretly whispered to Xue Qianxue a single word which was ''Ruse''.

    He had wanted to tell Xue Qianxue that someone was out to get her and they should not make a false move first. Rather, they should investigate in secret.

    So when Ji Yuan was taken to the punishment tform to be killed by golden tribtion lightning array, he began to bid Xue Qianxue, Shangguan Yan, Ye Chengxi and Jiajia farewell. It was not to say that he had surrendered already but he was ready to be a fugitive again!

    Until he could unravel the plot against Xue Qianxue, or he got stronger or he had a n to rescue Xue Qianxue, he would surely be back again!

    That is his Ji Yuan''s sword saint fighting spirit!

    However before he could break free of his confinement, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue hade to his rescue.

    Naturally Qin Shuang was not aware of this since Ji Yuan had never shared with anyone.

    In everyone''s eyes, Ji Yuan was a weak cultivator that deserved death for banging the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping hummed coldly at Qin Shuang, "It is only a little pain. After a few more times, you won''t feel any more pain."

    Qin Shuang: ¡­

    No matter how many times, she will never be able to get used to it. She wants to kill this Grand Matriarch Xi now¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling to her all of a sudden, "Make yourself clean. We are going for our next target now."

    Qin Shuang gasped with shock: That means that she has to entertain one more male cultivator? Is it Ji Yuan?

    "We are going to see Mo Bei." Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping chuckled wickedly.

    Qin Shuang almost fainted on the spot when she had heard that it was going to be Mo Bei¡­

    It was not long before they had found Mo Bei.

    Mo Bei was feeling dejected because he could not find Qin Shuang in her campsite.

    But now he had suddenly lit up when he saw that it was Qin Shuang who had appeared with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    Mo Bei began tough jovially, "I don''t know that I''ll have guests tonight. So it is Maiden Qin Shuang and Grand Matriarch Xi."

    Qin Shuang respectfully greeted as she lowered her golden eyes, "Senior Mo Bei."

    Mo Bei asked, "What brings everyone here?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile as she seductively walked close to him, "Naturally it is to repay you. I''ve seen how you havee to my Qin Shuang today. Therefore I want her to repay you tonight."

    Mo Bei curiously asked, "Repay me? There is no need to repay me. Haha¡­"

    Grand matriarch Xi Jingping smiled before she looked at Qin Shuang with meaningful nces, "Qin Shuang."

    Qin Shuang lowered her nces before she loosened her silken belt.

    Mo Bei''s eyes almost popped out, "Is¡­ this really necessary?!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping whispered seductively, "What goes inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is our personal secret. No one outside will ever know what ur inside. Do you remember that it is forbidden to talk about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Mo Bei nodded slowly but his golden eyes were still upon Qin Shuang, "We can''t even if we want to. There is a soul binding oath in our soul sea. If the other cultivators want to know the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth then they have to enter it to find their own lucky urrences."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling now, "And we are your lucky urrences." And she too had loosened her silk belt and dropped it in front of Mo Bei.

    Mo Bei muttered weakly, "This isn''t a good idea, am I right?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi stared at Qin Shuang to make her next move.

    Qin Shuang reluctantly went in front of Mo Bei and then she seemed to be reaching into her robe and skirt; she was pulling down her undies and slowly putting it into Mo Bei''s trembling hands.

    Mo Bei could sniff the fragrance from her panties and he was now staring at Qin Shuang; he knew that she had nothing on between her legs now¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled as she disrobed herself, showing her ample body to Mo Bei. "Well, what do you say now? Shall we cement a secret alliance? We will be yours to toy with and I can even give you my Jingjing and Yang Mi as well."

    She did not believe that Mo Bei would be able to resist this great temptation and very soon, she would have one more living furnace.

    "Don''t you want to bang a great saintess like me and to feel your big thing in my most forbidden ground?" She began to suggest to him as she dropped her skirt to reveal her translucent panties.

    Qin Shuang asked Mo Bei as she slowly opened up her robe and she was not wearing anything inside her robe therefore he was able to see her perky bosoms. "Can we have a secret alliance?"

    Mo Bei had immediately grabbed Qin Shuang''s soft boobs, "Of course we can have the secret alliance. Let''s do it!"<sub> </sub>

    And while he was massaging her soft boobs, he was suddenly startled to see milk flowing out of her perky peaks.

    A normal person will immediately question Qin Shuang but Mo Bei was so excited that he was starting to massage her bosoms really hard while he was also trying to pull down her skirt.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling, "Isn''t this good this way?" And she had stripped herself naked.

    Mo Bei answered and he was flushed, "Good, good!"

    He had already taken off his outer robe and inner garment!

    He was now like an unstoppable beast as he tried to ravage Qin Shuang.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled as she began to push her naked to caress Mo Bei, "Our alliance will be the most formidable one. You are a great saint while I am a great saintess¡­"

    As she said that, she began to recall how she was tricked into dual cultivating with Jin Qiang who had pretended to be Mo Bei. And this is the real Mo Bei¡­

    But all of a sudden she was stunned for Mo Bei had suddenly pushed her out of his way!

    Even Qin Shuang was stunned; did Mo Bei just push Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping out of his way?!

    Thinking that it was an ident, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly embraced Mo Bei''s back and said seductively, "Shall we have some fun together? The three of us?"

    Again Mo Bei had pushed her away and he was blinking his golden eyes, "Um, I think it is alright. I want only Maiden Qin Shuang. You can keep your chastity. Frankly speaking, you''re a little too old for my liking."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Qin Shuang: ¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Qin Shuang: ¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Qin Shuang: ¡­

    They just could not believe what they were hearing from Mo Bei!

    Mo Bei had actually liked Qin Shuang from the very start but he did not know how to tell her his feelings. When he saw that she was undressing in front of him, he decided not to use words but actions to prove how man he was instead.

    Mo Bei gave Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping a sudden awkward look, "Erm¡­ Grand Matriarch Xi, why are you naked in front of me. This isn''t necessary you know."

    Then he looked a little awkward before saying, "Can you please go away please? Erm, I feel a little shy now and I need some privacy. This is between Maiden Qin Shuang and me. Don''t worry, I won''t say a word to anyone, especially that rascal Ji Yuan. Haha! For once, I am superior to him!"

    This was the very first time that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had been so embarrassed. She promptly said awkwardly as she gathered her clothes, "Then enjoy yourself tonight."

    She had literally left in a rage!

    Mo Bei, seeing that he was now alone with Qin Shuang began to say to her as he attacked her. "Maiden Qin Shuang, I love you so much¡­"

    Maiden Qin Shuang began to dodge his beard as she managed to gasp out, "Can you please shave first?"

    But Mo Bei was muttering to himself, "If she don''t love me then why is there no soul bound between her legs. She must have already fallen in love me¡­"

    Qin Shuang was gasping all of a sudden as Mo Bei was holding her waist and had spread her naked legs around him; he was now pumping into her and she could feel his vitality.

    She was quite shocked that Mo Bei''s primeval yang was actually so pure and so masculine that she was gasping continuously.

    When Mo Bei saw that Qin Shuang was moaning, he said awkwardly. "I am actually still a virgin and I intend to give my virgin to my one and only true love. And I think this is you."

    Qin Shuang had tears rolling down her cheeks; she did not know what to answer. Moreover she was not permitted to say much.

    This caused Mo Bei to think that Qin Shuang was being touched by his heartfelt words and that she was surrendering herself to his masculine vitality.

    Qin Shuang actually tried to pull away from Mo Bei but he was too strong and he was too sticky on her. She really did not know whether to cry orugh when she got banged by Mo Bei who she happened to detest.

    But his masculine primeval yang was really strong and Qin Shuang could feel her cultivation strength returning. In fact, a single session with Mo Bei was enough tost her primeval yin for one month!

    She really could not believe it¡­

    Mo Bei was really afraid that he would lose her so he was also saying to her at the same time, "I am going to be the next leader of the Mo n. As my consort, naturally you are going to share my great influence in the Mo n as well. I can give you unlimited cultivation resources¡­"

    "I¡­ don''t want any of your stuff!" Qin Shuang blurted out.

    This was the truth. She really did not want any of Mo Bei''s great wealth or any status.

    Mo Bei had misunderstood her, "I can make an oath to the Great Beyond Goddess that you will be my one and only consort. That is because you are the only maiden that truly understands me."

    Qin Shuang was in tears and she was crying silently: I really don''t understand you¡­ I think that you are actually a simpleton now¡­ do you know that there is currently a plot against everyone of you by Xi Jingping? She wants to make you all into her living furnaces!

    Mo Bei continued to murmur, "Grand Matriarch Xi is really too generous to me. I ought to repay her one day¡­"

    Qin Shuang almost faint: she wants you dead¡­

    But all of a sudden Qin Shuang had stopped struggling all of a sudden because she could feel Mo Bei''s strong primeval yang entering into her once again and was startled.

    Her divine sense could suddenly feel that Mo Bei''s soul sea was very pure. In fact, the pureness of his soul sea meant that even if he had banged Grand Matriarch Xi, he would never be able to turn into her living furnace.

    She had suddenly remembered that the Mo n was a celestial n that emphasized on their soul sea and they even had the Dream Trial to cleanse their soul seas.

    If she can enter the Dream Trial then she will be able to remove her stigma as a living furnace. Also, her cultivation realm may also be able to progress!

    Just as Qin Shuang was trying to tell Mo Bei that she was not willing to be his consort but if he would be so kind as to allow her to use the Dream Trial, she would do anything to repay him, she was suddenly gasping again.

    It was because Mo Bei was squeezing her soft boobs really hard and making it as though it was jelly, causing her primeval yin milk to flow out continuously.

    He was saying to her at the same time, "If you are silent then it means that you are actually willing to be my consort. I know that you are too shy to tell me. Don''t worry, I shall make the decision for you!"

    Qin Shuang was exasperated that she could not mutter out a single word; she hadpletely forgotten that she could not be able to speak her mind out¡­

    To think that today, she would fall into this beast of a man here.

    That was what she was thinking but she was actually grabbing Mo Bei hard. For the very first time, she was actually enjoying herself too as she muttered, "Mo Bei, Mo Bei¡­"

 Chapter 471 The Long Night (3)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had walked away from Mo Bei in a fit of rage.

    She simply did not believe that such an insolent man would actually exist!

    And he had even called her too old for him!

    She sworn in her heart that she would make Mo Bei pay dearly for this and she would still make him into her living furnace!

    If either Yu Jingjing or Yang Mi were to learn of her Dual Cultivation Art then she would have ask them to seduce Mo Bei immediately. Or else she would turn them into her depraved ves.

    She quicklyposed herself for the time being because she had now set upon her next target and that was Xiao Muhan.

    Xiao Muhan was meditating in front of a 150m tall dense ironwood in the cover of the night when he saw Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping appearing in front of him.

    He actually had quite an ugly look on his countenance after Dream Mist had told him that he should first cultivate his soul sea or else he would risk losing himself.

    She merely told him before dismissing him coldly, "It is best that you stay away from the maidens."

    That was the reason for Xiao Muhan ugly countenance because his pride had been badly wounded by both Yun Chi and Dream Mist, "Um? Grand Matriarch Xi? You are not recuperating for the night?"

    He was not expecting a visit from such a high and lofty great saintess.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping returned a wryly smile as she lifted her skirt to hop over.

    Xiao Muhan could see that the upper part of her robe was apart, exposing her white shoulders and ample bosoms.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping asked, "Why should a renown cultivator like yourself be alone for the night?"

    Xiao Muhan asked curiously, "You know my background?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Don''t forget that I am from the Holy Oracle Sect. In my sect, we know almost all the renown cultivators. Naturally we have your record as well since you are also a renowned cultivator and also a golden saint. Also, you are one of the two legendary brushes of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, am I not wrong to say so?"

    Xiao Muhanughed awkwardly, "You are naturally not wrong. When I am a golden saint, Ji Yuan is just a golden supremacy. To be honest with you, even Ji Yuan is my junior. I am almost five hundred years his senior. I just don''t get it how he is able to attain as a golden saint and then he is suddenly a peaked great saint? This is truly hard to believe."

    "But do you know that in my eyes, you are even more superior to Ji Yuan?" Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping said gently. "And I greatly admire your paintings too."

    "Is it?" Xiao Muhan chuckled. "Of course I am superior to Ji Yuan. He is just a good-for-nothing cultivator and is just my winepanion. Other than drinking himself silly, he has never contributed a single spirit stone for my wines."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was suddenly sitting very close to Xiao Muhan and she was smiling at him, "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is really a dangerous ce and I am very much afraid. As you know, no matter how strong I am, I am just a woman and so are my sect''s prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Xiao Muhan immediately said, "Don''t worry, I will protect you!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile wryly, casting a long meaningful nce at him. "Naturally I believe you but I can''t have it for free."

    As she said that, she began to bend down her head to kiss him.

    Xiao Muhan was stunned but he did not resist her, "But I am only a low level saint while you are a great saintess. How can I protect you?"<sub> </sub>

    He was conscious of his low level status.

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had already pressed down her lips on him as she whispered, "It is not just for myself. I have so many prot¨¦g¨¦s to take care of. Beside Jingjing, Yang Mi and Qin Shuang, I may have other prot¨¦g¨¦s in the final trial as well. I am afraid that I won''t be able to protect them and that is why I need your help to protect them. Will you do it for me?"

    Xiao Muhan bravely tapped his chest, "Of course I will! Please rest assure that I will do anything for you¡­"

    It was because he saw that bottom of Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s robe was wide opened now and that she was not wearing anything inside.

    He immediately put his hands on her ample breasts and he was staring at her beautiful valley below.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping moaned softly, "I actually desire you tonight¡­"

    Xiao Muhan could not believe his luck as he moved his hands shakily below while muttering, "There is no soul bound anywhere and you are wet¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping giggled, "Have you ever banged a great saintess before?"

    Xiao Muhan was already fingering her as he answered with a trembling voice, "Never. But I would like to try."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping nodded slowly with a wry smile, "And you will have the entire night."

    Xiao Muhan continued to mutter, "I may have a small harem but I''ve never banged a great saintess before¡­"

    While he was saying that, he had already taken off his robe and he was also moving his hands all over Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    He said softly with trembling fingers as he touched her body before pulling her robe off, "You are indeed the phoenix of all the phoenixes¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingpingughed softly as she suddenly lowered herself, "Why don''t I help my lord first?"

    Xiao Muhan was startled that a great saintess and also the leader of the Holy Oracle Sect would suddenly bend down on her knees to fondle and to swallow his manhood!

    He could only say, "Grand Matriarch Xi, I am afraid that I will quickly lose control of myself¡­"

    "Then lose control." She answered mischievously. "The more, the better."

    Xiao Muhan held her head and he was now deep pumping into down her throat and he could not believe what he was doing!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was still smiling while doing this depraved act, "And if my lord so desires, I can even deliver Qin Shuang, Yang Mi and Jingjing to you."

    Xiao Muhan began to lose control when he had thought of these three beautiful maidens as he poured down his primeval yang down her throat, "Really? I would like to desire them as well."

    "Then I shall deliver them all to you." Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping promised him as she looked up at him with a smile and her mouth was filled with thick sticky white stuff.

    But secretly, she was now working on draining his primeval yang and to make him into her second male living furnace after Hua Yingxiong!

    Very soon, she would have three living furnaces in her hands; Qin Shuang, Hua Yingxiong and Xiao Muhan.

 Chapter 472 Desert Or Secluded Valley

    The next morning, Ji Yuan gave a mighty shout to rally everyone.

    He had the most fulfilling night with Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue¡­

    This was the signal to move on.

    He was soon joined by Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Dream Mist.

    Next he saw a smiling Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, a shy Qin Shuang, Yu Jingjing and a smiling Yang Mi.

    Next was Hua Yingxiong as he greeted Ji Yuan with a roguish smile, "Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    A smiling Mo Bei had also appeared and he seemed to be looking in the direction of Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and her group.

    Ji Yuan first thought was: did he actually fall in love with Grand Matriarch Xi?

    Last was a Xiao Muhan and he seemed to be in high spirits.

    He was secretly casting his nce in the direction of Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Qin Shuang, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing as he imagined them dancing naked in his high and lofty presence.

    Ji Yuan was now a little suspicious because it seemed that Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and even Hua Yingxiong were even more spirited than before and the atmosphere had a different mood from yesterday.

    What the heck has happened?!

    The Great Beyond Goddess could sense the disturbances in Ji Yuan''s inner cultivation sea but she had chosen to keep quiet instead; she was naturally aware of what had happenedst night.

    And she knew that Xiao Muhan had been turned into Grand Matriarch Xi''s living furnace.

    She did warn him but he had refused to listen to her subtle advice.

    She could only say to him: Serve you right.

    As for Mo Bei, he is a great saint and has only lost a little of his primeval yang to Qin Shuang who is only a golden supremacy. But if he insists on doing every night then he got nothing to me but himself.

    But for Mo Bei, the Great Beyond Goddess was secretly smiling; it was because she had already seen into his future and she knows that his destiny is with Qin Shuang. The two of them are meant to be together in the future and it is their destiny to be together.

    This was very clear to her.

    As for the destinies of others like Ji Yuan, she could not see clearly their destinies because their lives were hanging like a thread.

    When she looked at Yang Mi, she was actually sighing: Poor maiden¡­

    Ji Yuan saw that there were now two paths in front of them.

    One path seemed to lead into the vast desert while the other path looked serene and appeared to lead them into a peaceful valley.

    Ji Yuan asked everyone, "So which path should we take?"

    But before anyone could reply him, he chuckled aloud. "I am definitely not going to take the desert because I am unable to keep myself cool there."

    Then he cast a look at Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi, "Unless someone will be willing to keep me cool with their profound animus."<sub> </sub>

    Bai Qianfeng was also smiling behind her veil as her beautiful eyes look at Ji Yuan. "Aiya. Even though the desert looks a little dangerous but it may be a shortcut to the interior of the final trial. Don''t you think so?"

    "I''ve actually agreed with this conclusion." Yun Chi curved up a smile.

    Mo Bei had also spoke, "I am actually alright with the desert. I''m a great saint but I wonder if the otherdies will be alright with this decision?"

    He was casting a lovelorn look at Qin Shuang who quickly looked away¡­

    Xiao Muhanughed aloud, "Of course I will pick the desert. I am not a sissy like Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "I will be a sissy?!"

    "Then why didn''t you pick the desert?" Xiao Muhan began to taunt him.

    Ji Yuan answered immediately, "I am actually thinking of thedies¡­"

    But before he could finish, Hua Yingxiong had said. "I will choose the desert as well. We may have more lucky urrences there as well."

    But the main reason why he had chosen the desert was because he wanted to look manly in front of thedies and in front of Grand Matriarch Xi.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You too?!

    Before Ji Yuan could speak, Grand Matriarch Xi had said. "Then I shall choose the desert too since most of the men have all decided on the desert. My sect is not weak and they will abide by my decision."

    Ji Yuan bitterly whispered to himself: Most men? Am I the only exception? Howe I look like a sissy today?

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping turned to look at Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Dream Mist for a decision, "What do you think?"

    But before Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue could say that they were actually supporting Ji Yuan, Dream Mist said. "Since it is the wishes of the majority to pick the desert, we shall go by the desert instead."

    p Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled back, "Alright then. To the desert then."</anda>

    Actually Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi had not made a formal decision yet. Even though they may thrive very well in the desert but they were just taunting Ji Yuan.

    Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue were all looking at one another secretly; the atmosphere today looks a little weird.

    But Yun Chi being Yun Chi, she could not keep quiet.

    Instead she smiled wryly, "The desert seems to be a better choice. After all, I enjoy the challenges of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Worsee to worse, I still have my golden talisman to make my escapade. But I may not choose the desert on my next round. Heehee¡­"

    When Hua Yingxiong had heard her, he had turned pale immediately. It was because he had already surrendered his golden talisman to Grand Matriarch Xi¡­

    He could only smile weakly to himself and tried to convince himself to be more careful. After all with Great Hero Ji Yuan around, there is noting to be feared, right?

    He had not banged Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi yet so therefore he did not want to die yet.

 Chapter 473 Into The Desert!

    Ji Yuan and his team began the long trek toward the burning hot desert.

    Even though they were a team but it seemed that there were actually two parties; one that was led by Ji Yuan and the other one by Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    After trekking for some hours in the hot burning desert, many of the cultivators in Ji Yuan''s team was alreadyining about the scorching heat.

    Ji Yuan saw that the second team that was following them seemed to be split now; seven of the cultivators were heading to the secluded valley while one dark robe cultivator was trying very hard to follow them.

    Although he could not see this dark robe cultivator but his malevolent air could not be hidden from his sharp divine sense.

    A sweating Ji Yuan was now looking intently at Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and Hua Yingxiong. "You love the desert, hmph!"

    He could see that they were all sweating under the hot sun but their manly prides stopped them from releasing their profound animus to cool themselves off.

    That was because Ji Yuan had not released his profound animus yet even though all the maidens had already done so.

    Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and Hua Yingxiong were all trying to prove how manly they werepared to him!

    Although Ji Yuan was sweating profusely, he was grinning.

    It was because he did not mind to sweat at all if others were suffering in the same shoes as him.

    Mo Bei could not resist grumbling at him, "Why are you so happy about?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly as he sung poetically, "The weather is so good and we are all taking a march in the hot scorching desert. Why are we in the desert? That is because we want to bang the maidens but we found out that there is nothing to hide. Hohoho¡­"

    Xiao Muhan and Mo Bei said almost at the same time, "Ji Yuan, you rascal, can you shut your crap?"

    Even Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Qin Shuang were all greatly embarrassed by how crude Ji Yuan''s poem was.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping however was smiling, "We are all here for our lucky urrences. However it is good that you are so spirited."

    She saw that he was reciting a crude poem and was secretly rejoicing. It was because the more crude Ji Yuan was, the more vulnerable he would be to her seduction.

    Without a doubt, she had already put it in her mind to make Ji Yuan into her next target and naturally a living furnace.

    She could see that Ji Yuan had so many beautiful maidens with him and that he was someone who could be easily be tempted.

    Therefore as soon as they had reached the next camping site, she would embark upon her dark nefarious ns to dual cultivate with him.

    She said wryly to herself: Ji Yuan, I will dance naked in front of you and turn you into my living furnace. I am sure that with your great saint primeval yang, you can contribute to my breakthrough in my cultivation realm¡­

    Then she was also smiling: I can tell that you want Yu Jingjing, am I right? I can also give her to you after I''ve turned her into my living furnace¡­

    She was suddenly thinking of another new n: Isn''t there a cultivator who is following them? Even though he is trying to hide himself but he can''t hide from a great saintess like myself. Maybe I should seduce him as well¡­

    At the same time, Ling Feiyue was trying to distract Ji Yuan because she knew that he was purposely trying to create trouble for everyone. So she asked a random question, "Say, do you remember Jin Yilong? He is the father-inw of your son and also the father of your daughter-inw."<sub> </sub>

    This got Ji Yuan attention as he asked curiously, "What about him?"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled, "Do you think that you have been too vicious against him by abandoning him in that forested valley? What if he cannot defend himself against the others?"

    Ji Yuan immediately growled, "I will be vicious? This is already considered to be too lenient for him. He didn''t lose his arms, legs or even his little brother. Moreover he is like a cockroach that can never die."

    Ling Feiyue began to chuckle secretly when she saw that Ji Yuan had a sudden ugly look when Jin Yilong was being mentioned for this man had taken Ji Yuan first sweetheart from him and they even got a daughter together.

    For some time Ji Yuan indeed had kept quiet much to the delight of many because he appeared to be glooming sullenly.

    -

    -

    -

    Away from Ji Yuan''s team, a lone dark robe cultivator was tailing them.

    He was none other than Jin Yilong and he had a burning hatred for Ji Yuan.

    p His arse was burning in pain, no thanks to Jin Qiang and Jin Dahai who had mistaken him for a female cultivator and they had even mistaken the wrong hole; it was because he had to thank the Devil Goddess for withering his little brother and turning him into a half-woman.</anda>

    When he had thought of the Devil Goddess, he was also filled with hatred but was also that of fear.

    It was because the repute of the Devil Goddess was really horrid in the Nine Celestial Fraternity. At one point of time she had even caused all the cultivators be they unorthodox, orthodox or even heretics to hunt her down. That was how bad her reputation was! (See the Fluffy Cultivation).

    But he had thought that the Devil Goddess was finally killed by a Hero Cultivator called Lu Qingyun? Why was she still alive to this day?! (See the Good-For-Nothing Cultivator).

    Just as Jin Yilong was concealing himself in the sand dunes, there was a sudden movement in the sands below that had caused him to panic and he was shocked that it was a seventh rank epic ss deste monster that was shaped like a gigantic cockroach!

    Before he could raise his divine sword against this deste monster, his two arms were suddenly cut off by its two sharp antennas!

    This caused him to yell aloud in great pain as he stumbled onto the sands and unable to use the golden talisman that was in his spatial storage.

    And before he could react the gigantic deste cockroach beast had stabbed him on his back with something sharp that he could not see.

    He mustered with all his strength to forcible turn his head around and was shocked that it was actually the long cercus of this deste monster and it was nowying parasite eggs into his body!

    He tried to yell aloud in pain but for some unknown reason, he was unable to shout anymore for this deste monster seemed to have seize his nervous system and was trying to soul merge with him!

    A thought of horror had suddenlye to him; he had suddenly remembered that one of the rarest ingredients for the gender-changing pill was a male cockroach like deste monster. Is this monster treating him as though he was her mate?!

    This horrifying thought was brief for Jin Yilong for he soon lost his consciousness and was being dragged away¡­

 Chapter 474 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (1)

    After another day and a half of traveling through the vast forbidden desert, Ji Yuan began to reckon everyone to take a look in front.

    He was awed for a while.

    It was because the fog in front had suddenly lifted and thousands of gigantic monuments could be seen, the highest being 300m while the smallest was 50m!

    Ji Yuan began to grin as he rubbed his nose, "It seemed that we have found one of the wondends of cultivation. I can use plenty of profound energies in front of us."

    Yun Chi was also smiling, "And you have also sessfully evaded all the deste monsters as well."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I''ve actually learnt it from you. I''ve actually learnt fast."

    He had recalled her leading the Green Faction while they were on the way to the Fallen Gods City.

    Yun Chi hummed with a smile, "Sometimes men can be more dangerous than the deste monsters."

    Ji Yuan stopped his grin slowly as he looked at the gigantic monuments in front of them, "I can sense at least a dozen super cultivators in that ce."

    Most of the great saint and saintess in Ji Yuan''s team had already sensed the presence of the super cultivators. This included Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    However Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not have any fear; in fact, she had actually weed the presence of more male super cultivators.

    When it was nightfall, she would then set upon her ns to seduce Ji Yuan¡­

    As she thought of that, her golden eyes began to look behind her as she wondered: Weird. How can''t I sense the profound animus of the cultivator that has been following us? Or is he dead?

    She began to sigh softly: I''ve thought that he was a cockroach but unfortunately, he is but a useless man¡­

    Mo Bei was shouting excitingly, "So what are we all waiting for? Let''s go there and have a look!" And he was casting a nce at Qin Shuang: Finally they can find a ce to get together tonight¡­

    Xiao Muhan and Hua Yingxiong were also grinning; they were all having the same thoughts as Mo Bei and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    It seemed that tonight would really be an extremely busy night after all.

    Ji Yuan suddenly felt a cold shiver running down through his spine. Call it instinct then and he had a really unspeakable feeling today¡­

    But he tried to shake off this uneasy feeling and hurried his team to the distant cultivation wondend.

    The monuments in front were further than he had thought and it took them more than four hours to reach even at top speed.

    What more Ji Yuan was stunned that the entire remnants of tall arching monuments were hundreds of miles wide!

    It was like seeing a superss city!

    When they had reached the array cornerstones of the towering monuments, they immediately knew that this cultivation wondend was called the Gods'' Monument City.

    And previously they had not noticed a ck cliff that had towered to the skies and all the thousands of towering monuments were all actually surrounding it.

    These tower monuments were actually not smooth but hundreds of caves were dotting it and there were even stairs leading to these caves!

    Ji Yuan and his team were all inhaling softly; they could tell that all these monstrous tall monuments had some profound insights and there were multiples of cultivation arrays embedded in them.

    This wondend of cultivation sounded too good to be true and they could literally stay here for their cultivation breakthroughs till the final trial was over!

    Xiao Muhan was already muttering, "I''ve decided not to shift my butt from this ce anymore. The other cultivation wondends may not be better and may even be more dangerous especially when you are in the interior. I don''t want my cultivation profound treasures to be recycled in this ce."

    When Yun Chi and Ji Yuan had killed the two grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce, they actually did not get any of the profound treasures including their spatial storages because their fights had taken ce outside the spiritualws of the trials. All the profound treasures were re-absorbed by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to be re-used again.

    Feng Minyue did not disagree with Xiao Muhan but she merely said quietly, "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am going into the interior of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "You are so.. crazy¡­"

    But Ji Yuanughed it off as he continued his march, "Come. Let''s go in to check the ce."

    Barely had they entered into the interior of the Gods'' Monument City toward the ck cliff, they could see the profound presence of more than forty cultivators. Some were hidden and some others were in visible view.

    Most of them were meditating for their insights but because Ji Yuan had brought arge team into the Gods'' Monument City, many of the cultivators that were already in this ce were taking Ji Yan and his team a curious look.

    These cultivators were all in the fifth realm, sixth realm and seventh realm but none of them were truly weak or else they would not be in this ce. As a matter of fact, they were all super cultivators in their own right, with their own unique inheritances.

    Also, Ji Yuan could feel the huge pressure that was in this ce and the closer that they were to the ck cliff, the more intense the pressure was!

    But a cultivator had caught Ji Yuan''s notice almost immediately and he was the ck robe cultivator with the ck spear, Lin Antian."

    Ji Yuan was surprised as he thought: He is also here?

    All of a sudden a monk cultivator had suddenly walked from the shadows of the towering monument toward Ji Yuan and his team as he said respectfully. "May the Great Beyond Goddess blesses you. I am Jue Jie, a great saint from the Celestial Tranquil Fraternity. Maybe I can be your guide in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan saw that he was polite so he answered respectfully, "We have just arrived. I am Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, he is¡­" Yu Jingjing was gasping softly. Her Holy Oracle Sect had kept records of all the renowned cultivators for the past ten thousand years.<sub> </sub>

    "Yes?" Ji Yuan said curiously. "Who is he?"

    Yu Jingjing took a look at her startled Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Yang Mi before she mustered her voice to say, "He is Jue Jie! The super cultivator who had the deepest foundation in his inner spiritual seas and he has never learnt a single offensive or defensive profound arts in his life. Instead, he focused on expanding his inner spiritual seas and cultivation realm. Also he is a peaked great saint as well!"

    With one breath, she had blurted it out all for Ji Yuan and for all the others to hear!

    Jue Jieughed humbly, "I am greatly humbled that I will be recognized by maiden. May I know your name?"

    Yu Jingjing immediately replied. "I am Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing from the Holy Oracle Sect, hailing from the Endless Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "Hold!" Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped her. "How can you give him your name? How do you know if he is a good guy or a bad guy?"

    Yu Jingjing protested immediately, "Great Saint Jue Jie is naturally an orthodox cultivator. As a matter of fact, he is one of top three orthodox exponents in the Celestial Tranquil Fraternity. It is said that there is not a profound art in the entire Celestial Realm that can prate through to his profound defense¡­"

    "He is merely a defense cultivator?" Ji Yuan interrupted her and Yu Jingjing failed to see that he had an ugly look.

    But it was not lost on Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and Feng Minyue who were all shaking their heads lightly; it was because Ji Yuan was acting too defensive and as though he was being green.

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Jue Jie, "She may knows you but I have never heard of you before. Therefore you are not as renowned as she has imed."

    Yu Jingjing was held speechless by Ji Yuan.

    How could Ji Yuan have heard of him? He isn''t even from his celestial fraternity or surrounding celestial fraternities!

    But Jue Jie good-naturely said, "There is a ck cliff here. If you can hit it with all your might then it will show you your rankings and you can even inscribe your name on it. This is also a reflection of your cultivation strength and you can choose the monuments of your choice to meditate upon for your spiritual insights.

    "What is so hard about this?" Ji Yuan hummed softly before he walked to inspect the ck cliff.

    He looked up and was suddenly horrified to see that Jue Jie had scored 10,101 points and he was first while Lin Antian was literally second with 9999 points.

    His opponent was actually the number one cultivator here?!

    Had he offended the wrong figure?

    Jue Jie smiled at him, "The highest limit is 33,333 points but no one has ever reached that limit before. So do you want to try?"

    Before Ji Yuan could reply him, Mo Bei had shouted loudly, "I am Mo Bei from the Mo n in the Deste Celestial¡­" And he had mmed the ck cliff mightily with his Eons Divine Art.

    To Mo Bei, this was the perfect chance that he could show off his profound might!

    A white streak of light shot up the ck cliff and stop at the 6,777 point mark.

    Mo Bei gulped with great shock, "This¡­ this¡­ is¡­ impossible¡­"

    Jue Jie was smiling, "You can try as many times as you want but I am afraid that your results can only get worse and not better."

    "Great Saint Jue Jie." Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had greeted him all of a sudden. "I am Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping of the Holy Oracle Sect. This is my pleasure to know you."

    She was immediately looking at him with a captivating look and in the most friendliest manner. It was as though they were the best of friends.

    Jue Jie immediately returned a polite hand gesture, "I must be blind not to recognize the Grand Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect¡­"

    He did not manage to finish his words for he was suddenly distracted by Ji Yuan.

    For Ji Yuan had taken out his saintly step divine sword and on it were two beautiful divine halos!

    Ji Yuan was saying aloud to the ck cliff, "Xiang Li, I am going to bang you hard now!" And he had disyed the ultimate ''Sacred Swords sword'' stance, a miracle sword art and had mmed his saintly sword into the ck cliff.

    And Xiang Li was also shouting: YYEAA!

    A thunderous impact urred and there was a bright streak of light that shot up to the very top, bypassing Mo Bei, the other cultivators, Lin Antian and even Jue Jie, stopping only at the 10,404 mark.

    Ji Yuan had scored 10,404 points to overtake Jue Jie and he could leave his name at the very top of this ck cliff!

    Jue Jie was startled when he saw Ji Yuan''s saintly sword, "This is a saint-step divine sword and the profound power of your sword art is a miracle sword art¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled as he looked slowly at everyone to proim himself King of the World, "I am so awesome¡­"

    All of a sudden Dream Mist had shed in front of the ck cliff and had given it a gentle kick; the entire ground seemed to be vibrating like an earthquake and the white streak of light had suddenly shot past Ji Yuan''s previous record and ended up at the 33,333 point mark.

    All the cultivators including Ji Yuan almost toppled over in great horror as they saw the results that were on the ck cliff¡­

    Everyone was suddenly asking secretly: who is she?

    And that included Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan, Hua Yingxiong, Grand Matriarch Xi, Yang Mi and also Qin Shuang!

    But Dream Mist merely asked innocently, "Is this ything really so difficult?"

    Ji Yuan had bent over and there was a shimmer of tear in his golden eyes; it was because Divine Mist had drained all his inner spiritual seas with just a single attack!

    Even Anyang and Xiang Li were speechless as they muttered together: we forget that she shares the same soul sea as our master¡­

 Chapter 475 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (2)

    Dream Mist was veiled of course but even before she had kicked the ck cliff, many of the other cultivators were already taking notice of her misty eyes.

    At first many of these cultivators had thought that she was blind or that her cultivation core had been damaged due to her misty eyes.

    But one thing they had agreed inmon was that she must really be a most alluring maiden because these cultivators had taken several looks at her and many of them really had cold hearts that knew no attachments for a long time.

    And also there were Yun Chi, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Qin Shuang, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.

    It seemed to them that the newly arrived group had gathered some of the most beautiful maidens to this ce and that was why many of the cultivators, hidden or visible were all looking at Ji Yuan and his group with interest.

    And then Dream Mist had kicked the ck cliff to score 33,333 points.

    This caused even Lin Antian to drop his ck spear onto the ground and many of the super cultivators in the vicinity were dropping their jaws with a dumbfounded look. Many had also dropped their divine weapons, profound treasures and even their pants.

    But none of them had detected any profound animus from her!

    What exactly was her cultivation realm? And what profound arts were she doing?!

    Many of the superior cultivators were now eager to know¡­

    Even Jue Ji who was standing very near to her was trembling nonstop and he did not know how to address this maiden¡­

    Who is she?

    That was the question that was on everyone''s mind!

    Even Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was now forcing herself to re-examine this maiden in her grand scheme now; at first she had thought that she was just a fangirl of Ji Yuan but she could tell that Ji Yuan was purposely trying to avoid her. But this performance waspletely on another level¡­

    What was her name again?

    One must know that that the points on the ck cliff was not linear. In fact as one''s profound power increased, the harder it was to score a single point.

    The Great Beyond Goddess coolly imprinted her alias on the ck cliff for all to see; the name ''Dream Mist'' had suddenly appeared on the ck cliff and everyone was now secretly taking notes of her name.

    As she imprinted her name on the ck cliff she was saying to Ji Yuan silently: The Great Beyond Goddess will not bless you all with good results because she is here personally.

    In the meantime Jue Jie was muttering, "In the name of the Great Beyond Goddess, this is impossible¡­"

    Had all the years of his cultivation training been in vain?!

    He had told to ask Ji Yuan with a trembling voice, "Who is your¡­ thispanion?"

    Xiang Li warned Ji Yuan: Big Brother, he is trying to green you!

    Anyang protested immediately: No, he is not!

    After hearing Xiang Li, Ji Yuan was on the defensive and he sarcastically answered. "Can''t you read her name herself? She is my Queen of course and I am her King!"

    Jue Jie trembled, ''Your¡­ Queen?!...you are the King?!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess suddenly took a meaningful nce at Ji Yuan all of a sudden because this was the very first time that Ji Yuan had called her Queen without any resentments. As a matter of fact, he had been most unwilling to call her a Queen previously.

    She was perplexed immediately.<sub> </sub>

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were all shocked by Ji Yuan''s sudden announcement; JI Yuan had never called another person as his Queen and this was the first. Howe they did not know Dream Mist was his Queen?

    There was a sudden enviousness in her eyes and obviously even immortal cultivators like Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were now trembling with shock over this sudden announcement.

    A Queen or Queen consort was the highest prestige that could be given to Ji Yuan''s consorts!

    Everyone had thought that this title would fall to either Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Xue Qianxue, Jiajia, Sword Saintess Yuluo or to Ling Feiyue. Even to Little Princess because she was the first to take Ji Yuan''s primeval yang.

    And today, Ling Feiyue was now standing with them but Ji Yuan had never called her as Ji Yuan''s Queen¡­

    Even Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan, Hua Yingxiong, Qin Shuang and Matriarch Xi Jingping were shocked by the announcements and they were dumbfounded. They had been Ji Yuan''spanions for the past few days and they had never known that Ji Yuan was the King and that he had a Queen.

    But Dream Mist merely said, "I am Ji Yuan''s Queen and he¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was suddenly looking at her with renewed interest, "Maiden Dream Mist, are you being forced to be with this rascal? I can help you¡­"

    Before the Great Beyond Goddess could say that Ji Yuan was actually merely her manservant, she was being interrupted by Xiao Muhan and therefore she was annoyed.

    And moreover Xiao Muhan had ignored her advise not to go near the maidens and he had ended up as a living furnace for Grand Matriarch Xi.

    He may think that no one knows his secrets with Grand Matriarch Xi but her discern eyes had already known about it.

    Therefore she replied him coldly, "Why don''t you try beating my record on the ck cliff first before you lend me your profound strength to fight Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was quite offended that Xiao Muhan was trying to sow discord between him and Dream Mist so he grabbed Dream Mist''s waist all of a sudden, we are going somewhere quiet now!"

    Dream Mist gasped with shock when Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her waist and when she tried to hit Ji Yuan on his chest, she was startled that she could not muster any profound power. It was because she had already consumed almost all of Ji Yuan current profound strength in his inner spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly pped her butt and he had grinned shamelessly, "Why my Queen? This isn''t the first time that I have hold you in my embrace, right?"

    He had purposely said it aloud for everyone to hear.

    See! I am the King!

    Dream Mist naturally tried to protest but Ji Yuan was not using his profound strength and he had a really strong grip so her struggle was in vain for now.

    But in others'' eyes, she was in embrace with Ji Yuan, caressed and fondled by him and she was even acting coyly by beating Ji Yuan softly on his chest!

    What does Ji Yuan mean by this is not the first time that they had embraced?!

    They are definitely lovers!

    The looks that were on Ji Yuan''s sweethearts were definitely ugly for they had never expected Dream Mist to have suddenly be a potential threat and moreover she was really unfriendly to them.

    After Ji Yuan and Dream Mist had disappeared from their sight, they were all hitting the ck cliff as well.

    However Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had orded Ji Yuan some face and did not smash his records.

    As for the others, they really were unable to smash Ji Yuan or Dream Mist records.

    But for most of the onlooker super cultivators, they were all using their divine senses to know where Ji Yuan and Dream Mist were going instead¡­

 Chapter 476 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (3)

    After JI Yuan had left with Dream Mist, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had taken charge of the team.

    She announced to the party. "Let''s spread out for now for our cultivation insights. I''m sure that you must have gained plenty of insights for today from the ck cliff. Why don''t we pick a monument whose pressure that we can withstand nearby to mediate for now?"

    Everyone agreed and slowly walked off in different directions.

    Xiao Muhan was naturally looking at Grand Matriarch Xi and was wondering if she would look for her.

    Hua Yingxiong on the other hand was feasting his eyes with Qin Shuang, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing!

    Mo Bei naturally had no other eyes except for Qin Shuang and he was clumsily looking at her. He tried tofort himself by saying: Well, at least my ck cliff score is much higher than Qin Shuang. So naturally she won''t look down upon me right?

    If Qin Shuang could hear him, she would reply: You are a Great Saint while I am only a lowly sixth realm golden supremacy. Is this even a fairparison?

    But in front of Qin Shuang, Mo Bei could be as shameless as Ji Yuan, and even more!

    In front of a man that was as shameless as Mo Bei, Qin Shuang really could not escape from him and she was destined to be his one and only consort.

    As for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping she had walked away with Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Qin Shuang but she was already thinking about her next n.

    She smiled meaningfully at Jue Jie before she walked away.

    Tonight there were four potential male cultivators that could be her target. They were Xiao Muhan, Hua Yingxiong, Jue Jie and of course Ji Yuan.

    She was already thinking of Ji Yuan because controlling Ji Yuan would mean that she would be controlling Dream Mist and the rest of his group.

    He is the King to this Dream Mist, right?

    As Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping walked for a while, she began to beckon to Qin Shuang. "Come with me. We are going for a short patrol to ensure that Jingjing and Yang Mi will be able to meditate in peace."

    Qin Shuang immediately, "Yes-"

    "Grand Matriarch Xi." Yu Jingjing had suddenly interrupted Qin Shuang in order to speak to Grand Matriarch Xi. "Yang Mi and I are just your juniors. How can we allow you to patrol in our stead? Why don''t you meditate in peace while Yang Mi and I patrol the perimeter? After all you have already patrolled on our stead previously."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to growl immediately, "You are not listening to me anymore?"

    "Oh no¡­" Yu Jingjing lowered her nces immediately.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping pretended to smile, "Do you think that I do not know that you are thinking of looking for Ji Yuan? Forget about him. He is nothing but a rascal like what Xiao Muhan and Mo Bei had said. Didn''t you hear his desert song? He is really a crude cultivator. What''s more, he is surrounded by so many heaven-defying beauties."

    When Yu Jingjing heard Grand Matriarch Xi, she was greatly embarrassed and did not dare to speak out anymore.

    Grand Matriarch Xi hummed coldly, "Stay around here first. If you run into any danger, activate the profound signature with your si ring. But I doubt that the other cultivators would be so foolish to attack any of you for I can reach you at a moment notice."

    That was the truth; every one of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Holy Oracle Sect carried with them a profound ring to detect one another if they were in the vicinity. Therefore it was all too easy for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to locate Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi even if she was away for they were still in the same vicinity.

    She took a sly look at Yang Mi and saw her curved slim figure: Yang Mi, I am very sorry to be sacrificing you tonight.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was now saying to Qin Shuang, "Come with me."

    Qin Shuang was now trembling hard and she forced herself to obey hermands¡­

    Soon they had walked away from the rest.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was rolling her golden eyes to think: No, it still isn''t safe to visit Ji Yuan tonight. He is obviously with Dream Mist tonight. I should instead pay-"

    She did not get to finish her thoughts when Mo Bei had suddenly appeared out of the blue.

    His appearance stunned her.

    "Senior Mo Bei, what are you doing here? Why aren''t you meditating for your cultivation insights? Don''t you want your breakthrough and ascend as an immortal?"<sub> </sub>

    Mo Beiughed as he turned to look at Qin Shuang andpleting her, "I am here to look for Qin Shuang. Heehee."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled coldly when she had remembered how Mo Bei had rejected her advances. "Well, she isn''t free now. Good bye!"

    But Mo Bei had suddenly went inbetween Qin Shuang and her to smile at her, "I don''t think that Qin Shuang is a cultivator from your Endless Celestial Fraternity or even your celestial n right? She is from my Deste Celestial Fraternity and her Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue also happens to be my grand niece as well. So how can you take her away?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping however continued to maintain her eyes, "She, however, has the intention to join my celestial n. As a matter of fact, I''ve already prepared to ept her as my direct prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Mo Bei asked her, "How can you ept her as your direct prot¨¦g¨¦ when she isn''t even a chaste maiden? Isn''t that supposed to be the rule of your Holy Oracle Sect?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping hummed coldly, "Whatever. This isn''t your business."

    Mo Bei began to chuckle, "Honestly, I doubt that you are a chaste maiden yourself when you have stripped in front of me. But didn''t you say that we can have a secret alliance? I didn''t tell the others, you know. But now, you won''t let me have Qin Shuang anymore? Do you want me to tell the others that you are a whore instead?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked¡­

    This Mo Bei was actually threatening her now; she had seriously underestimated him. To think that he is from an orthodox celestial n and a famous one too¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping answered coldly, "This is the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. It is forbidden to reveal anything about anything rted to it. What happens inside is none of your concerns."

    Mo Bei grinned, "Even though when the trials had ended, we are unable to reveal what has happened due to the divinew that is binding here but I can tell Ji Yuan, Yang Mi, even your sweet Sacred Oracle Priest Yu Jingjing and the others about you."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping: ¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping: ¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping: ¡­

    "What do you want?" She finally said.

    Mo Bei chuckled shamelessly, "I only want Qin Shuang to be with me and I have the intention to take her away. Shall we or shall we not have a deal?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingpingughed coldly, "Why do you want to take her away? Are you trying to make her into your ything or your consort."

    Mo Bei solemnly rebuked her, "She is never my ything. She is my future consort."

    "But she is not as chaste as you think she is." Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping hummed coldly.

    Mo Bei answered nonchntly, "Chaste or not chaste, is it really so important? She is who she is. I know that she is not evil and I know that she is right one for me. I just don''t understand why she is listening to you, that''s all. But nevertheless, I want her for your dark secrets."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping stared at Mo Bei for a while: He is really serious?!

    Then she said, "I can let you have her for your golden talisman. Is this a deal?"

    Mo Bei did not hesitate for even a second and he immediately threw Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping his golden talisman.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping caught hold of the golden talisman before pocketing it. She then turned to look angrily at Qin Shuang before she said coldly, "Good. Qin Shuang go serves Senior Mo Bei well with your ''body'' of course."

    She had purposely emphasized that Qin Shuang was to serve Mo Bei with her body. It was because that was actually hermand to her!

    Although Qin Shuang was forced to obey Mo Bei but she was also listening to him.

    In fact she was startled by what Mo Bei had just said and there were hot tears shimming down her cheeks¡­

    She could only mutter silently: He didn''t mind that I am no longer a chaste maiden?

    When she had lost her chastity to the two grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce, she had wanted to die immediately. If it was not her pride as a cultivator and a golden supremacy, she would havemitted suicide immediately¡­

 Chapter 477 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (4)

    Ji Yuan was now alone with Dream Mist.

    He literally had her in his arms all this while even though she was looking coldly at him. "Is this enough already? You can let go of me now. There are no other cultivators here already. So you need not worry about being green by anyone and no one is going to wound your manly pride."

    The Great Beyond Goddess had actually wished that she could fade into his soul sea immediately. But she had to maintain her lies so she had resisted the temptation to disappear.

    And Ji Yuan''s hands were definitely not clean¡­

    Ji Yuan was astonished as he looked at Dream Mist, "You will actually know what I am thinking about? I am astonished!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly startled because she seemed to have identally revealed her secrets and that she could hear his thoughts and even see through him.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly patting her shoulder as he grinned, "You know I have suddenly realized howpatible we are. You are actually able to understand me so well."

    Even Xiang Li was giving him her approval: Omg big brother! She is good. She is able to know you so well in such a short time!

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou was muttering inplete surprise in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: I can''t believe that she is actually understanding you. She must have studied you a lot in the past few days¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess could not believe what she was now hearing from Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang. They were just like three rotten eggs that were together¡­

    She reminded herself: I really must recheck the mysticws of my avatar Xiang Li. She is more corrupted than I have thought. What''s more, she is collecting her own personal harem and causing this Ji Yuan to be a pick up artist here.

    In her divine mind, she was able to count the limited number of consorts that Ji Yuan would actually have but due to Xiang Li unreasonable spirit powers, Ji Yuan''s harem had expanded unreasonably.

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Wan''Er, Chen Hanhan, Ling Tianshui, Qiu Xiuyu and even Yu Jingjing would never be able to touch Ji Yuan''s heart. Even Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi were also not in Ji Yuan''s list.

    And howe there was Fairy Anyang Xiahou as well?

    Xiang Li was simply messing up the destiny threads of these maidens on her own whims simply because her master was also a reckless master that told her to have just fun and was uninterested to seek more cultivation powers.

    Ji Yuanbined with Xiang Li were one mess up pair!

    But there was nothing she could do because destiny had picked Ji Yuan to be Xiang Li''s new master.

    Even though Ji Yuan had refused to make his wish, Xiang Li had already made several little wishes because she saw Ji Yuan''s properties as her own. At one point, Xiang Li had almost disappeared but Ji Yuan firm resolute had actually prevented her from dissipating.

    Xiang Li had some form of free will because her main role was to tempt and corrupt her master into making a personal wish to be stronger and more powerful than the others. Naturally her masters would be imagining how deadly their enemies would be.

    Ji Yuan was no exception because he was imaging that everyone was going to green him due to Xiang Li''s corrupting powers in which she had actually no control.

    Others would wish to destroy their enemies instantly.

    But this Ji Yuan was actually nning to take out his enemies personally and that had prevented the wish from activating.

    Xiang Li''s wish was actually not omnipotence and could only affect an upgrade in cultivation strength and talent. That was her limit and also thest blessings of the Great Beyond Goddess to the weak.

    But she could not change things much because everything was actually predestined to happen.

    Just creating Xiang Li had already consumed plenty of her profound strength and also every time a wish had been activated because she was dealing with destiny itself.

    Shall she destroy Xiang Li instead?

    No. She had already thought of this many times but Xiang Li was now too deeply etching in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. Removing Xiang Li was the same as crippling Ji Yuan and he had a powerful destiny.

    In fact, she may even lose her Tenth Immortal Positioning at the same time for messing up with his destiny.

    If his destiny was not powerful, there was no way for his Jiajia, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue to favor him. He would not even have the luck to be a saint too even though he had poor cultivation resources. Lastly, if his destiny was not powerful enough, he would not be able to find Xiang Li.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was pressing upon the Great Beyond Goddess as he pressed on her, having pushed her to a corner inside a cave of one of the towering monuments.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had thought that Ji Yuan would take her to the nearest monument that was nearest to the ck cliff. That is where the pressure was the heaviest and the greatest. Although he may be restricted to the lowest level but she knew that he actually cared more for his face than anything else.

    But no. Ji Yuan had randomly taken her to a monument that was on the high floor, beyond the reach of any of the cultivators. Although this made sense too from his perspective but she was not going to cave in to his wanton demands.

    For Ji Yuan had suddenly slipped her thin veil aside and was saying to her, "You are a most beautiful maiden. Probably one of the most beautiful maidens in the entire Celestial Realm."

    The Great Beyond Goddess could feel his heavy breath on her and she was saying, "Hmph, is that what you''ve been thinking of, all this time¡­"

    "But¡­" Ji Yuan had interrupted her. "I know that this is all your ploy to make me fulfill my wish, right? You are purposely showing off in front of me so that I would be envious and then set it as my goal to overtake you."

    Anyang and Xiang Li were both startled as they said at the same time: Omg! We didn''t think of this at all¡­ Big Brother is really a genius for thinking of this¡­

    Ji Yuan proudly dered to them: Of course!

    Ji Yuan +3 Big Brain Points!

    And he had wished that there were more people in his soul sea that he could add into his big brain points now.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was saying silently: No, you big idiot. I am just kicking for fun.

    But she refused to say her thoughts out because she was cool to this.

    "Think what you think."

    That was all that she had said.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Keeping silence will only deepen your guilt and will never prove your innocent. By keeping quiet, you are just saying that I am right."

    Ji Yuan +6 Big Brain Points!

    The Great Beyond Goddess: ¡­

    "So why are you taking me to this ce? Is it to give me only a warning?"

    She had gazed coldly at Ji Yuan before giving him her warnings.

    Ji Yuan growled all of a sudden, "Stay away from all the other male cultivators. They are all perverts. You''re my Queen and my spirit entity so naturally you belong to me. Only I will be allowed to see your wondrous looks but not the others. I''ve thought that you know me best."

    The Great Beyond Goddess smiled coldly, "I know that you are a pervert cultivator yourself."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "I will be a pervert cultivator?! This isn''t true!"

    Xiang Li was also protesting mightily: My Big Brother, he is never a pervert!

    Anyang giggled: He is just a super pervert cultivator.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes on Anyang in his soul sea: Anyang, you¡­

    All of a sudden the Great Beyond Goddess decided to push Ji Yuan away from her. This was enough for her already.

    And she was pushing with both hands through her long sleeves of her robe.

    But Ji Yuan had caught hold of her long slender white porcin fingers immediately as he said, "I''ve not finished¡­"

    But the Great Beyond Goddess had lifted her right knee to kick Ji Yuan between his legs and she was smiling, "You are still too young, too simple¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping when Ji Yuan had lost his bnce and was stumbling with his body onto her.

    Not only that but Ji Yuan had also pressed his mouth against her lips!

    The Great Beyond Goddess was immediately flustered because she simplycked the profound strength to push Ji Yuan away simply because there was almost none to speak of.

    Although Ji Yuan had insane profound recovery and he could recover his profound energy passively without a need to meditate, but she had tried to consume Ji Yuan''s profound energy in his soul sea and he was also trying to do the same too to defend himself against her.

    And they both ended up consuming profound energy from the same pool of soul sea and ended up consuming nothing at all.

    It was like a fourth realm or fifth realm cultivator trying to beat up a great saint like Ji Yuan with the current profound strength. Naturally it would not hurt him at all.

    Moreover she was struggling all this while and did not allow for Ji Yuan''s inner spirtual seas to replenish itself.

    Ji Yuan was also startled when he was kissing the Dream Mist and he could not stop!

    Especially when Xiang Li was giggling and urging him on: Big Brother, so this is your tactic today. Well done! Go and bang her!

    Even Anyang was shyly saying: No harm in a little coption. It is not like we don''t know what you are capable of.

    The Great Beyond Goddess found herself sticking her tongue into Ji Yuan before she gasped all of a sudden as she mustered all her might to push Ji Yuan out of her way.

    A while ago, she was actually enjoying it and she could feel her moisty primeval yin gathering in her forbidden valley.

    But she soon realized that she had lost transmission to Xiang Li and that she could not hear from Ji Yuan''s soul sea anymore.

    Therefore she had quickly pushed Ji Yuan away and was quite rmed: Xiang Li''s powers are stronger than I''ve thought. She is actually influencing me?!

    After Ji Yuan had been pushed away, he was suddenly looking awkward and he could not believe that he had been kissing Dream Mist.

    He tried to take a look at Dream Mist but she had suddenly walked away!

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, what has happened? Did you just bust your romance because you happened to be a bad kisser?

    But Ji Yuan ended up staring nkly at Xiang Li: What did I do just now?

    It was never his intention to kiss Dream Mist again after he ended up getting bashed up by her a while ago. He was actually trying to expose her ploy¡­

    But when he had kissed her earlier, he just could not stop. It was like his soul had been sucked in a beautiful and blissful wondend¡­

    And then this beautiful and blissful wondend was suddenly shattered when he was suddenly being pushed away.

    There was a sudden desire for him to dominate this beautiful blissful wondend so that he could be the lord of this ce.

    "What am I thinking about¡­" Ji Yuan weakly said. "I have better think of saving my own skin when she has her profound strength back."

    He was looking down between his two legs and he had remembered the soft kick from her right knee.

    Then he remembered her kick on the ck cliff that scored 33,333 points.

    He was now connecting her kick to his lower body¡­

    "Crap. I think I will be dead very soon."

 Chapter 478 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (5)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was still upset with Mo Bei as she walked alone in the shadows of the towering monuments.

    She had just lost her most capable assistant Qin Shuang just like this.

    She was now thinking of making Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing into her female living furnaces now. The sooner, the better.

    She had no use for the male living furnaces; their only purposes were to serve her and other female living furnaces.

    Mo Bei was safe for now for a living furnace like Qin Shuang did not have any ability to turn him into a living furnace. Only a cultivator with the dual cultivation ability would be able to do so.

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was unwilling to teach Qin Shuang her dual cultivation art nor would Qin Shuang be willing to learn as well.

    Just as she was still fuming over Mo Bei, she was startled to see Ji Yuan walking in her direction.

    With a seductive smile, she called out to him. "Isn''t this our Great Hero Ji Yuan? Aren''t you erm¡­ with Dream Mist?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little nk when she had suddenly mentioned Dream Mist.

    Then he pulled her to a side before he whispered softly, "Yes, actually I was with her just now but not anymore even though she was begging me to stay. She said she can''t live without me. Haha¡­ but you know, I am really a busy with the rest of my harem."

    Xiang Li was stunned as she asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea: Did Dream Mist really say that?

    Anyang giggled: Of course not. Don''t be taken in by him.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was bbergasted as her divine soul listened into their conversations: I was begging him?

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled seductively, "I am very sure that Great Hero Ji Yuan is busy with your harem."

    Then she looked meaningfully at Ji Yuan before she smiled again, "What do you think about our Sacred Oracle Sect? Do you think that we will make a good additional to your harem?"

    Ji Yuan was gasping all of a sudden as he looked at her.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled as she stepped closer to Ji Yuan and was even fingering his chest, "You are a smart man and I''m sure that you will definitely know my meaning. I may be the grand matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect but in front of a great hero like yourself, I am just a normal maiden. All you need to do is to tell me who you want. I can deliver all of them to you, including myself."

    This was in enough and any man would be able to know her deep meanings.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly gripped Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s arms as he said excitingly, "Thank you! This is exactly what I have always want!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile too as she noted that Ji Yuan was actually taking the initiative to touch her now. "Good. So shall we begin now?"

    She was going to let Ji Yuan undressed her now and very soon, he would be her living furnace¡­

    "Now? Really? That is great news!" Ji Yuan had suddenly loosened his grips on her and had run off in a hurry.<sub> </sub>

    This stunned Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    "Where are you going?" She asked in a panic.

    Ji Yuan turned his head back and said excitingly, "Of course I am going to tell Jingjing this great news. Isn''t it great news that her grand matriarch is now allowing us to be together? I hope that she won''t be so anxious now. Haha¡­ you must really be impressed by my results on the ck cliff. Well, let''s talkter¡­ good bye¡­"

    With that, he had sped off in a hurry.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was doubly stunned by Ji Yuan.

    First of all, she had thought that he was a smart man. But he turned out to be an idiot who could not catch her hint.

    Secondly, she did not know that Ji Yuan actually had a rtionship with her Jingjing¡­

    After a while, she hatefully said. "It seems that all the men in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are such a couple of weirdos."

    She was of course referring to Ji Yuan and Mo Bei, of course.

    Then she hatefully said, "Ji Yuan, you rascal. Fine. I will turn Jingjing into an unchaste maiden then. I will never forgive you for rejecting my advances."

    She had suddenly recalled that Xiao Muhan was also from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    So she said softly, "I shall torture you by not visiting you tonight. It is all thanks to your two great friends Ji Yuan and Mo Bei."

    As she turned to ponder over her new strategy, she was already thinking of sacrificing Yang Mi.

    Yang Mi had been one of best direct prot¨¦g¨¦s and she had be a young saintess at a young age. She was always smiling and was positive. Best of all, Yang Mi had never dared to defy her will and that was the reason why she had been patiently grooming Yang Mi to be the serving maid of the current Holy Oracle Priestess.

    But tonight, the word grooming had another meaning. She was going to groom Yang Mi into her sexually deprave wanton ve while preserving Jingjing to be her exclusive cultivation partners. She was sure that many of her dual cultivation partners would be dreaming of bedding the Holy Oracle Priestess and turning her into their personal depraved ything.

    When that happened, even Ji Yuan would not be able to escape from her five iron fingers then!

    She stopped for a while to contemte over her next move: Who shall she visit next? Hua Yingxiong or Jue Jie?

    She was suddenly smiling.

    It won''t be Hua Yingxiong next. Because she is going to offer Yang Mi as a living furnace to Hua Yingxiong next as a reward for being such a docile servant.

    So she was going to visit Jue Jie next.

 Chapter 479 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (6)

    Jue Jie was meditating in a secluded cave in one of the inner monuments when Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had arrived.

    And he was surprised to see her.

    "It seems that I''ve a surprise guest."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had remembered his profound signature from earlier and had patiently tracked him down.

    She was looking very pale because the pressure here in this cave was not meant for her to stay for too long.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile seductively when she saw Jue Jie, "Great Saint Jue Jie. How have you been?"

    Jue Jie was smiling too, "It is only a few short hours since we have parted."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could not disagree with it as she calmly approached Jue Jie, "s, the night seems to be a little too long. Aren''t you alone meditating here all by yourself? Whether you will receive any cultivation insight is down to pure luck."

    Jue Ding began to sigh softly, "That may be truth. I am already a great saint now so I am actually looking for a breakthrough to ascend to the Immortal Realm. Surely you must know that there is a heaven above our heaven. To be an immortal will mean breaking the shackles of the Divine Cmity and I shall have an eternal life. Therefore I value the descend of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with every visit for any little breakthrough."

    Thest stage of ascension was the most crucial for all the ascending great saints and all of them would prepare for hundreds of years for a breakthrough to the Immortal Realm and to be a God!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping chuckled softly, "Even though I am a great saint but I am still so far away from being a peaked great saint so I can still afford to wait."

    A great saint is thest of the seventh cultivation realm. It consists of half-step, earth-step, heaven-step and peaked step.

    Each little step can literally cost more than a thousand years and even more!

    Even then there is no promise that a peaked great saint will be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm sessfully because the consolidation of one''s inner spiritual sea inside their soul sea is the crucial key to ascending.

    Also, some cultivators like Sword Cultivators, Runic Cultivators, Alchemy Cultivators etc. can breakthrough easily but it did not mean that their profound strength are stronger than the Power, Spirit and Defense Cultivators.

    In fact, their rate of ascension to the Immortal Realm are few inparison to the Power, Defense and Spirit Cultivators.

    Jue Jie had suddenly said, "If I have a saintly divine sword in my hands or even a profound art, I am very sure that my profound strength will be even higher than Ji Yuan. Do you or do you not agree with me?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was suddenly giggling, "Naturally you are the best."

    Jue Jie looked at her before he began to sigh heavily, "Then why do you think that Maiden Dream Mist is with Ji Yuan then?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping suddenly had a most ugly look but she quicklyposed herself to smile again, "I am sure she has not seen your better side."

    But Jue Jie continued to say, "Maiden Dream Mist is a mysterious maiden. If only I can study her. What is her cultivation realm, do you know?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was stumbled for words; she had no idea what was her cultivation realm.

    Unless a cultivator wills it, they can always suppress their cultivation realm. The only thing that they can''t hide are their golden eyes. That is why it is considered dishonorable if a cultivator did not dere their cultivation realm in advance. It is actually normal for cultivators to suppress their cultivation realm in a non life threatening duel.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was thinking: What is wrong with all these cultivators?!

    But she quicklyposed herself to smile, "I can see that you greatly desire Dream Mist, am I right?"

    Although this was a tease but she had never expected Jue Jie to say firmly, "YES!"

    This startled Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping for a while before she smiled meaningfully, "Actually Dream Mist isn''t that strong. But she will listen to me for she is a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Holy Oracle Sect and I am her grand matriarch."<sub> </sub>

    This was a tant lie!

    Jue Jie asked, "Really?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled as she lied without blinking an eye or a heartbeat, "She has a lofty status in the Holy Oracle Sect and her results at the ck cliff is actually due to a profound treasure that she has."

    Jue Jie was suddenly enlightened, "This makes a lot of sense to me now¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping continued, "However the Holy Oracle Sect is still a weak sect and needs plenty of support for this final trial. So we are hoping to anchor ourselves to some strong cultivators. As you can see, we are forced to ally with this Ji Yuan because he is simply too strong for us and also because he has¡­ seduced our Maiden Dream Mist. If you can free us from his tyranny, then I¡­even I will give my body to you."

    Jue Jie appeared to be startled, "You will give your body to me?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to sob, "That Ji Yuan had stolen my chastity since the very beginning. I''ve no other choice but to cave into his wanton demands."

    Jue Jie was now angry, "He is indeed a beast of a man!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping nodded, "If you can help us then I can promise that you can also have Maiden Dream Mist''s body to yourself."

    Jue Jie angrily said, "Naturally I will help you to get rid of this Ji Yuan!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was now thinking: It is a pity that I have to sacrifice this Ji Yuan. But if he is dead then won''t I have his harem and all his maidens will be my living furnaces to seduce even more male super cultivators?

    She said smilingly, "You can have his saintly divine sword too. But remember to make a spirit pact first or his saintly divine sword will be recycled into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    While she was saying this, she had suddenly moved very close to him.

    Jue Jie had suddenly noticed that Grand Matriarch Xi was moving very closely and that her robe was loosen opened; he could even see her beautiful buxom figure from within.

    Grand Matriarch Xi had suddenly bent down to his crotch area as she smiled upward to him, "In order to show proof of our newfound alliance, please allow me to pleasure you."

    Jue Jie did not hesitate at all as he quickly loosen the soul bound that held his belt to his robe.

    Even though he was bald and looked like a monk, he was anything but a monk.

    Also Grand Matriarch Xi was also a great saintess. For her to offer herself first, this showed her sincerity. Moreover this would mean that he could obtain Dream Mist for herself.

    He began to ce his hands on Grand Matriarch Xi''s slender body and was surprised that she had loosened all her soul bounds on her body, causing all her clothing to fall apart in his strong grips.

    Soon he was fondling her naked body while she was lowering her mouth to massage his manhood.

    Jue Jie slidded his fingers down her butt to discover that she was really very wet and her sticky primeval yin was already dripping.

    He was very excited as he suddenly flipped her over to expose her nakedness to his eyes, "You are mine!"

    He had spread her legs wide and he was banging hard into her while Grand Matriarch Xi had entered a state of non stop ecstasy.

    While he was imagining her as Dream Mist, Grand Matriarch Xi was secretly using her primeval yin to convert him as her living furnace.

    This would take her some time because Jue Jie had a higher cultivation realm than her and his soul sea was really stronger than her.

 Chapter 480 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (7)

    Time passed.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had no idea on the passage of time that had passed because Jue Jie''s primeval yang was simply too overpowering.

    He had totally filled her up and more; even her head, her face, mouth and body were all filled by his sticky primeval yang.

    She felt recharge and that even her dual cultivation art had even advanced its profound power.

    Luckily it was this advance in profound power that caused her to finallyplete the profound seals in his vast soul sea.

    Although his cultivation core was vast and filled with a strong inner spiritual sea but there was a crack.

    And through this crack, Grand Matriarch Xi was able to nt her profound seals to make him into her living furnace.

    The stronger Jue Jie''s primeval yang had entered into her, the stronger her primeval yin would be and eventually the weak had triumphed over the strong.

    Now her primeval yin was stronger than his primeval yang whose essence was scattered all over her body and onto the ground.

    Jue Jie really did not give her any mercy at all and he had copted thoroughly with her, dominating her entire body to the fullest.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping almost was unable to walk because her butt really hurts!

    But she said to him, "We can have another session another day. I must return now lest Ji Yuan will be suspicious of me. I shall bring you the other maidens and you can ravage them slowly."

    With that she gently dispersed the primeval yang that was on her to dry herself clean before putting on her robe.

    Jue Jie was reluctant to let her go!

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s words were like an invisible edict now.

    Jue Jie could only agree with her!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had to go now because Hua Yingxiong was still waiting for her.

    She turned to smile at Jue Jie, "Be good. You are my subtle ally against Ji Yuan now."

    The web of her deceits continued to grow stronger!

    As she exited Jue Jie''s meditating abode, she quickly made her way to Hua Yingxiong''s meditating abode.

    She knew that this young saint must be waiting impatiently for her.

    As a great saintess, she was very careful not to let anyone see her in the darkness and her divine sense was formidable.

    But as soon as she had flown to the next towering monument by leaping across at great heights, she was suddenly pulled into a cave by a pair of strong hands and she was shocked!

    Her assant actually had the ability topletely sealed his profound animus and to bend into the surroundings. It was a terrifying ability!

    The man behind her said slowly and his voice was gentle. "You don''t have to be surprised. I''ve trained in all aspects of cultivation and I''m the number one genius in the entire Celestial Realm."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could only smile weakly for it was quite a boast to say so.

    She immediately mustered her profound strength to fight the assant but she was suddenly hitting air because he had suddenly stepped aside.

    She took a careful look at her assant and was startled that he was actually Lin Antian!

    What is he doing here?

    Lin Antian smiled, "I will advise you not to fight me here or else everyone will know about you and me."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was indignant. "Oh? We have no secrets to hide¡­"

    "But very soon, we will have." Lin Antian had interrupted her. "I know about Jue Jie and you. I was there."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked: This was impossible!

    Even if her divine sense has beencking but Jue Jie formidable divine sense would have doubled the range as any cultivators. No one can surprise Jue Jie. Is he even more formidable than Jue Jie?!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping quicklyposed herself to ask curiously, "What do you want?"

    Lin Antian answered, "Don''t be mistaken. I just happen to be there. I have heard that you are offering Maiden Dream Mist to Jue Jie?"<sub> </sub>

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling all of a sudden, "Indeed. So you want Maiden Dream Mist as well?"

    Lin Antian nodded coolly, "Yes!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling brighter than before, "She is really hot. But if you want to copte with her then you must seal an alliance with me. We shall make a secret oath to the Great Beyond Goddess and to the Great God Pangu."

    Lin Antian said coolly, "This is not an issue with me."

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping continued to say, "But you have to pleasure me first. Only if you are worthy then I will agree to let you have Dream Mist. What do you say?"

    Lin Antian appeared to hesitate for a moment before he asked, "You are serious?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Of course I am serious. Do you think I am joking with you? Maybe I can even give you some tips to save Maiden Dream Mist from Ji Yuan. Ji Yuan is the son of a beast. If you do not know what Ji Yuan is capable of, how can you save Maiden Dream Mist and let her forgets about Ji Yuan?"

    Lin Antian finally nodded as he said, "This Ji Yuan is really the son of a beast. I have observed him for some time now and he is always changing maidens as though they are clothes. Very well, I shall kill him for you."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping pretended to lookforted and there were even tears in her golden eyes, "Then this is good. With Jue Jie and your help, we can surely kill Ji Yuan."

    She was already starting to loosen her belt once more¡­

    But Lin Antian had suddenly stopped her, "Before we make this oath, I want you to know that Maiden Dream Mist belongs only to me. Jue Jie mustn''t touch her at all. Can you promise this with your soul sea?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping lied, "I promise you! Maiden Dream Mist shall belong to you then!"

    She knew that she may suffer a cultivation loss if she broke her oath but this Lin Antian was too good to be missed. And he was also really handsome!

    Moreover once Lin Antian had be her living furnace, she could revoke the oath with him anyway.

    Why was she suddenly so lucky tonight to have two extraordinary super cultivators as her living furnaces?

    This was beyond her expectations.

    Soon she and Lin Antian had strippedpletely and they were now copting together.

    He was even more powerful than Jue Jie and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was truly satisfied.

    And of course, she had also made Lin Antian into her living furnace.

    Now she had Jue Jie and Lin Antian tomand, she felt like she truly owned the entire Celestial Realm for these two were super great saints and their cultivation strength was above her.

    However, they could not tame their hearts and had fallen into her dark cultivation arts.

    For that, she was truly grateful to the two dead grand elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    When her deed with Lin Antian was done, she had quickly rushed to find Hua Yingxiong.

    It was because she had been dying thest part of her nefarious ns.

    She said to Lin Antian, "Now be good and go back to your meditation ce. I will look for you tomorrow night."

    -

    -

    -

    When she had found Hua Yingxiong in his meditating abode, he was already growing extremely impatient.

    As soon as he saw her, he began to smile and he was disrobing. "What takes you so long? I have been suppressing my anger against Ji Yuan in the day and now I have been waiting impatiently for you."

    He began toment before he asked suddenly, "Where is Qin Shuang?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Qin Shuang won''t being today but tonight I will let you y with Yang Mi and she is a chaste young saintess."

    Hua Yingxiong was startled but he was also delighted, "Yang Mi¡­ I have been thinking of ying with her for things. Where is she?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile, "I shall deliver her to you soon enough. But you must listen to me¡­"

 Chapter 481 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (8)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly appeared in front of Yang Mi out of the blue.

    Although Yang Mi was startled by her for this was in the middle of the night but she had quicklyposed herself as she smiled beautifully, "Grand Matriarch."

    Grand Matriarch Xi however said solemnly, "Yang Mi, follow me now."

    Yang Mi was even more startled, asking. "Where are we going? It is already sote. Shall I call our Holy Oracle Priestess to join us as well?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi hummed coldly, "There is no need for the others."

    With that she had walked off.

    Yang Mi was perplexed why her grand matriarch was suddenly so cold towards her. But she continued to maintain her bubble countenance and followed her.

    Soon Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had taken her to a cave which was in one of the towering monuments.

    This monument was not too tall and measured only 200m but the pressure that it was exerting was still great.

    Anyone below the seventh realm cultivation could not be able to climb any of the stairs. How high they could climb would have to depend on their cultivation strength.

    When Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was inside with Yang Mi, she began to say to her. "Yang Mi, how dare you!"

    Yang Mi was startled immediately and she began to drop tearfully to her knees, "Grand Matriarch, what did Yang Mi do wrong?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping slowly said, "Do you dare to admit that you are no longer a chaste maiden anymore and you are actually having an affair with Ji Yuan?"

    Yang Mi was stunned as she answered tearfully, "This isn''t true. Please give justice to your Yang Mi. Grand Matriarch can use your divine sense to probe the pureness of my primeval yin..."

    With that she had dropped down her profound defenses to her soul sea and was begging Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to probe her soul sea. It may be an exhausting affair but it will prove her innocent!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was now saying angrily, "You can fake it with profound treasures and I know that this Ji Yuan is full of profound treasures!"

    If Ji Yuan was here, he would be perplexed and would immediatelyin that he was actually dirt poor!

    Yang Mi was shocked by this usation, "Grand Matriarch have to believe me. I ampletely loyal to you. You have brought me up and cultivate me. Your Yang Mi really does not dare to lie to you!"

    She was now sobbing with hurt and her tears were flowing nonstop now.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping continued angrily, "Do you know that I will make you the next Holy Oracle Priestess soon, after Jingjing and I will be bestowing to you our ''Jing'' name which mean chaste. Your new name will be known as Yang Jingmi. But you have greatly disappointed me!"

    When Yang Mi had heard her, she began to hit her head onto the ground hard. "Your Yang Mi will never dare to lie to you!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping said coldly, "Jingjing also says the same thing in the past. But now she must be happily in Ji Yuan''s bed. Yu Jingjing is already such a disappointment to me and I never think that you will be the same!"

    Yang Mi looked up with tears flowing down her cheeks, "What must Jingjing does to convince Grand Matriarch?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping said coldly, "I must examine your chaste body then and examine your hymen. Only then will I be convinced."

    Yang Mi was shocked; her Grand Matriarch was going to examine her naked jade body?

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to hum coldly, "I know that you dare not! You are a traitor to our celestial n."

    Yang Mi suppressed her tears courageously as she stood up but her head was still lowered, "Your Yang Mi is willing to undress myself to prove my innocent..."<sub> </sub>

    She willed with her profound energies as she slowly removed the soul bounds that were on her belt and dressings.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was already watching in anticipation; that was because this was actually her real ploy. By removing the soul bound that was on her, she was making things very convenient.

    It was because there were few ''rapes'' among the cultivators as the cultivators would protect themselves with their soul bound. This soul bound was actually connected to the soul sea and was as resilient as the soul sea. Breaking it apart was often an exhausting affair. And it was next to impossible to ''rape'' a saintess.

    Unknown to Yang Mi, Hua Yingxiong was also hiding in the darkness of the cave and he was watching gleefully.

    He had diminished his profound aura and had taken a stealth profound pill to hide his presence. Now he was waiting to watch a show, ording to what Grand Matriarch Xi had told him. After all, Grand Matriarch Xi had told him that this very night, Yang Mi would be his to take.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to say to Yang Mi, "What are you waiting for?"

    Yang Mi tearfully pulled her silken belt aside before dropping it onto the ground.

    She was trembling hard and she was continuing to say tearfully, "Yang Mi''s chastity is for the heavens and the earth to see. Please believe your Yang Mi..."

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s heart was hardened and she was only concerned about having more living furnaces than cherishing a loyal prot??g?? that had been with her for the past few hundred years.

    In her heart she was saying: Yang Mi, don''t me me. My misfortunate is also your misfortunate."

    Shemanded loudly, "Strip!"

    Yang Mi began to tearfully dropped her sect robe down onto the ground, leaving only a visible short skirt that reached to just above her knees to cover her legs and a beautiful light blue apron to cover her top.

    All these were not lost on Hua Yingxiong who was watching from the back. It was because the apron only covered the front and not the back.

    Therefore Yang Mi''s back was actually bare and he could see her porcin white figure clearly; her bare back was visible all the way to her lower slim waist!

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping continued to say solemnly, "Why are you hesitating? Continue to strip!"

    Yang Mi hesitated for a while before she tearfully pulled at her skirt before she lowered it down...

    Hua Yingxiong was excited now because he could see that Yang Mi''s panties were almost transparent and her almost naked lower body were full view of his beastly eyes.

    Yang Mi slowly moved her fingers to her back as she pulled the strings of her apron but as she removed her apron, she refused to remove her hands from her two perky mounds.

    Only onest piece of clothing was blocking now.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping said coldly, "Remove your panties. Then go put your hands on the walls and spread your legs. I want to examine your chastity."

    When she had said that, she was secretly charging her profound energies to her fingertips to knock down Yang Mi as she got close.

    But a distraught Yang Mi did not notice and also she did not suspect her prot??g?? mistress.

    Yang Mi wailed aloud and she was sobbing loud as she moved one of her hands to the side of her panties, ready to lower it down.

    She tried very hard to convince herself that her grand matriarch was humiliating her only in private and she was already extremely gracious to her.

    Hua Yingxiong was really excited now because he could see the outline of Yang Mi''s butt now and he was very eager to see her wet valley when he was thrusting into her.

    It was because this were their ns. As soon as she had removed her panties, Grand Matriarch Xi would stab Yang Mi by using her profound fingers to knock her down and then Hua Yingxiong would be thrusting into her two lovely valleys, ravaging her until she would beg him to do it again and again.

 Chapter 482 The Godsâ€™ Monument City (9)

    After Ji Yuan had met up with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, he had indeed run off to see Yu Jingjing.

    Yu Jingjing was mediating for her cultivation insights when Ji Yuan had suddenly entered into her cave. This startled her.

    "Ji Yuan, why are you here?"

    Yu Jingjing panicky said, "If my grand matriarch saw you here, you will be in trouble. And even our temporary alliance will be gone. Let''s meet during the day alright? But I will need at least 5 days here. I have already gained plenty of insights and I wish to ponder over its mysteries."

    Ji Yuan looked a little guilty when she saw that Yu Jingjing had been cultivating hard.

    But he quickly grinned, "Don''t worry. Your grand matriarch seems to have given us her blessings."

    Yu Jingjing was startled, "Really? When?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Just now."

    Yu Jingjing looked truly startled, "You have seen my grand matriarch earlier?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly.

    Yu Jingjing looked happy and she was looking romantically at Ji Yuan, "Are you saying that it is alright for me not to be the Holy Oracle Priestess and that I am allowed to go with you?"

    Ji Yuan hesitated for a while before he grinned, "I think so."

    But he quickly said, "Jingjing, do you mind if I can ce my soul mark on you?"

    Yu Jingjing was startled as she stared at him, "You want me to ce a tracker on me?"

    Although a soul mark was only used to track a cultivator and was not a ve mark but most cultivators would not allow such a soul tracker to be ced in their soul sea.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "That''s right."

    Yu Jingjing slowly said with her beautiful big eyes on him, "Alright then."

    This time, it was Ji Yuan that was surprised. "You don''t want to ask me for the reason?"

    Yu Jingjing shook her head, "I trust you."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly when he had heard her. "But I am a rascal cultivator. Don''t you know that?"

    Yu Jingjing shyly replied, "A real rascal cultivator or an evil cultivator won''t advertise it to anyone."

    When Ji Yuan heard her, he could onlyugh weakly.

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "So shall we begin now? I will lower the guard on my soul sea."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Even though I am a great saint but my profound strength in soul mark is really weak. I can''t affect anyone who is above the fifth cultivation realm, unless they actually allow me."

    Then he said weakly, "I am also not an expert so I may need some time to create a soul mark on you."

    Indeed Ji Yuan had taken some time.

    When he was done, he said to Yu Jingjing, "Don''t worry. I won''t abuse this soul mark. I will always be here to protect you. Now I have to leave."

    Yu Jingjing was startled, "Where are you going? You have only been here for just a while. Can''t we chat casually for tonight?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Not tonight."

    Yu Jingjing asked suspiciously, "Or are you going back to see Dream Mist? I saw you with her earlier."

    "Of course not." Ji Yuanughed weakly; he had suddenly remembered again the kick that was on his lower body and the kick on the ck cliff.

    He could not help muttering silently to himself: She is too terrifying. Too terrifying¡­

    With that, Ji Yuan began to take a few steps away from Yu Jingjing before he looked back to say. "It is just that I need to confirm something first."

    Yu Jingjing asked curiously, "What are you confirming? Maybe I can help you?"

    But Ji Yuan was already gone from the scene.

    And he wasst seen popping a profound pill.

    She began to sigh softly¡­

    -

    -

    -

    A tearfully but alluring Yang Mi was now slowly pulling her panties down below.

    Hua Yingxiong could see her beautiful butt now and he was already thinking of grabbing her and to dominate her.<sub> </sub>

    Even Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was looking at Yang Mi''s figure and she was sighing how beautiful she was. And now she was going to sacrifice this direct prot¨¦g¨¦ of hers.

    But she was soon saying firmly to herself: Yang Mi, don''t be too sad. I will get you plenty of men. They will be able to satisfy you to no ends. Only in this way may you continue to serve me in the future.

    All of a sudden a deep voice interrupted, "I didn''te for this show¡­"

    Yang Mi was startled by this new voice that she quickly pulled up her panties again and she was in great shock.

    And so was Grand Matriarch Xi and Hua Yingxiong as they looked at the direction of the new voice.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared at the entrance, startling everyone!

    He said coolly, "There are two hidden cultivators hiding in this cave."

    Then he pointed at where Hua Yingxiong was hiding in the darkness and said, "You don''t have to hide anymore. Hua Yingxiong! I know that you are hiding there."

    Yang Mi burst into more tears when she had suddenly realized that there were two other cultivators that had seen her in her nakedness!

    She really did not want to live anymore now¡­

    It was really Hua Yingxiong and he was wearing just a robe with nothing inside. Slowly he stepped out of the darkness and said, "I happen to chance upon this scene and I''ve nothing to do with it."

    It was a lie.

    But Ji Yuan was never one to believe stories and he said crudely, "My foot! You are in cahoots with Grand Matriarch Xi!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping forced herself to smile, "Ji Yuan, how can you say such a thing? I am just disciplining my prot¨¦g¨¦. It got nothing to do with this Hua Yingxiong or you."

    But she quickly said as she scanned her golden eyes in the dark recess of the cave, "You say that there is another cultivator in this cave? Who is he?"

    Ji Yuan was forced to admit, "Although I can''t tell where he is hiding but I know that he is here. He has indeed hidden himself very well."

    The very reason why Ji Yuan could see Hua Yingxiong was because he had Darksee and he could see very well in the dark.

    This was his secret trump card.

    His other trump card was triggered when he had caught hold of Grand Matriarch Xi''s grip earlier; it was because he could sniff her scent.

    But her scent was mixed with plenty of primeval yang from many cultivators including the two dead grand elders.

    This immediately triggered rm bells in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Although Grand Matriarch Xi had purged all the scents already but Ji Yuan''s nose was simply too sensitive.

    Ji Yuan''s trump cards were never his cultivation strength but his physical senses!

    "Maybe you are wrong?" Hua Yingxiong said weakly.

    It was because he had been in this cave all this while. So how could he not know if there is someone here?

    A most mesmerizing voice could be heardughing in the darkness, "We didn''t meet for just a short while and you are now able to detect me? Amazing, amazing."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Hua Yingxiong and even Yang Mi were all startled; there was really someone else in this cave!

    Ji Yuan almost dropped his jaws when he had heard this voice.

    A most mesmerizing maiden in ck was giggling softly as she appeared and she was in short skirt, not robe.

    Her dressing was extremely revealing and she had also removed her veil.

    Ji Yuan''s eyes almost popped out when he saw that it was Little Princess!

    Little Princess smiled mesmerizing as she winked at Ji Yuan, "I am just curious to find a living furnace in this ce and that an evil dual cultivator must surely be nearby. It seems that I am not wrong."

    When she had said that, she was smiling at Grand Matriarch Xi and Hua Yingxiong.

    She began to wink at Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, "Do you think that you can hide the dark arts of the Evil Cultivation Pce from me?"

    She was after all, was one of the three citadel lords of the Evil Cultivation Pce in the past!

    Ji Yuan said coldly as he stared at Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, "It seems to me that my suspicion in now confirmed."

    He had been trying to confirm this suspicion of his but this was something that he could not tell Yu Jingjing yet in case that he had been wrong.

    Little Princess was winking mesmerzingly at Ji Yuan, "It is just such a wonderful surprise to find you here."

    Ji Yuan was now grinning as he began to examine every inch of Little Princess'' body.

    Xiang Li was literally screaming with joy as she shouted inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: It is Little Princess! She is back!

    The Great Beyond Goddess said silently: It seems that Yang Mi''s fate has now changed¡­

 Chapter 483 Fingers Pointing (1)

    Ji Yuan turned to look at Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping with an ugly look even as he asked Little Princess at the same time, "You practice the Dual Cultivation Art?"

    He had hated the Evil Cultivation Pce for a long time especially when he was kidnapped by Little Princess in the past and he was forced to ''dual cultivate'' with her. To make matter worse, that was his very first time as well.

    He, a renowned sword saint, was captured by the Evil Cultivation Pce in his drunkenness after losing his first sweetheart to Jin Yilong. This was a taint that could never be removed until he had destroyed the Evil Cultivation Pcepletely.

    For hundreds of years, he had actually viewed Little Princess as his one and only enemy for torturing him both mentally and physically.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping faked her anger as she said angrily, "How dare you pour this fake usation on me! You have entered our personal abode at night and have cooked up this story about me. I must say that you are an unorthodox cultivator like that Maiden Ling Feiyue. It''s no wonder why you are in herpany."

    Then she pointed at Little Princess, "The two of you must be in this together. Now tell me! How did the two of you got together? I don''t know anything about this dual cultivation art at all!"

    Ji Yuan did not reply her immediately for he was slightly distracted; a tearful Yang Mi was trying to hastily grab her celestial robe around her and he was looking at her exposed perked mounds¡­

    He was gulping suddenly because he had never taken any real notice of her; he was suddenly finding her figure to be extremely enticing and this was really extremely hard to forget. He was also having shbacks of her smiling countenances and that when she was with him, she was always smiling brightly and had a flustered look.

    He quickly casted her thoughts away for she was really too sinful, especially when she was just wearing her transparent panties and was exposing herself half-naked in front of him.

    Too sinful!

    "And why are you here in the first ce?! Are you spying on my Yang Mi?" Grand Matriarch XI Jingping was suddenly using Ji Yuan with a cold shout.

    Her shouts had fully brought Ji Yuan''s thoughts back and he was soon grinning as he pointed at Hua Yingxiong, "Then can you exin about him?"

    Grand Matriarch XI Jingping answered coldly, "I don''t know him at all."

    Hua Yingxiong was stunned, "Grand Matriarch Xi, we are in this together? How can you say you don''t know me at all? With your cultivation strength and minebined, why must we be afraid of this Ji Yuan?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping looked at him in horror, "What are you talking about? You are just like Ji Yuan! Why are you in this ce and what are you doing here?!"

    Her reply shocked Hua Yingxiong who was stammering, "What do¡­ you mean ¡­ we are¡­ in this together¡­"

    Of course Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was refusing to know Hua Yingxiong now. While he was useful as her living furnace but Yang Mi value as a living furnace was even higher. She could not afford to have her prot¨¦g¨¦ Yang Mi to turn against her at this very moment.

    Therefore, even if it pained her heart to do so, she was forced to sacrifice Hua Yingxiong. It was a lucky thing that she had never told him that he was her living furnace and his reactions were all too real.

    Yang Mi had turned to Hua Yingxiong as she cried out, "Hua Yingxiong, you are a most despicable saint!"

    But for Ji Yuan whom Grand Matriarch Xi had suggested that he was an equally lecherous saint cultivator, she did not point at him.

    In her mind, she believed that Ji Yuan had just happened to show up.

    Hua Yingxiong was visible upset that Yang Mi did not rebuke Ji Yuan and that he felt like he was the only victim around here.

    Therefore he started to raise his heaven-step divine sword from his spatial storage in a bid to attack Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was actually about to teach Hua Yingxiong a lesson as he was already seeing green now so he had raised his saint-step divine sword in retaliation.

    The very reason he was seeing green now was no thanks to Xiang Li who was shouting in his soul sea: Big Brother, he is seeing Yang Mi without any clothes and imagining all kinds of beastly acts upon her!

    A burst of profound energies resonated loudly when the divine swords of Hua Yingxiong and Ji Yuan began to sh together.

    Hua Yingxiong was surprised that he did not stumble back and he was holding his ground; it was because Ji Yuan was a great saint while he was just a saint. Moreover his divine sword was several leagues more powerful than his profound strength could withstand.

    He naturally did not know that Ji Yuan''s profound strength had been greatly depleted by Dream Mist earlier and that Ji Yuan was only sustaining his profound strength with profound pills.

    Hua Yingxiong was secretly smiling in his heart: I can fight with him on an equal footing? This must be due to my huge talent and also because of my coption with a great saintess.

    This thought had immediately lent him strength and he was now furiously attacking Ji Yuan with all his profound power!

    But barely had he disyed a tornado of attacks upon Ji Yuan to cut him down, Ji Yuan had coolly shed him on his right shoulder.

    This was quickly followed by his left chest.<sub> </sub>

    And before Hua Yingxiong was aware of what was happening, Ji Yuan''s saintly divine sword had shed repeatedly upon him to send him onto flying thunderously to the ground.

    Hua Yingxiong had suddenly found himself to be much mistaken. In terms of swordy, Ji Yuan waspletely above him.

    As for his puny profound defense, Ji Yuan''s saintly divine sword could cut him down like a piece of paper. He had suddenly regretted why he did not spend more time to train himself as a Defense Cultivator; he hadpletely cked away his talents and the cultivation resources that were given to him.

    But Ji Yuan was not about to stop there as he continued to sh at Hua Yingxiong relentlessly!

    Hua Yingxiong''s golden body was punctured; he was coughing golden blood and holes had appeared in his body!

    He managed to mutter a cry, "Is this¡­ what a sword saint¡­ will¡­ behave¡­ once an opponent¡­ is fallen?!..."

    But Ji Yuanpletely ignored him as he swung his sword upward before he pierced his sword into Hua Yingxiong''s chest to nail him onto the ground, stopping short of the heart.

    Hua Yingxiong coughed another bout of golden blood when he was nailed onto the ground as he cursed, "Ji Yuan, you¡­"

    But Ji Yuan said to him, "You can''t even take ten strokes from me even though my swordy isn''t in the top 100 in my Deste Celestial Fraternity. Aren''t you a disgrace?"

    Then he turned to ask Yang Mi, "Maiden Yang Mi, what do you want me to do with him?"

    Yang Mi was still tearful and she was quite startled that Ji Yuan was suddenly talking to her. She stammered with her sobs, "I think¡­ he has been punished enough. This will take him some time to recover his golden body. As long as he does not tell anyone about¡­ this incident today¡­ we can spare his life."

    Ji Yuan nodded and Hua Yingxiong was instantly relieved.

    Hua Yingxiong was also thinking: At most I can only be considered as peeping on her. There is no need to punish me this severely. Moreover I am also the mighty prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire¡­

    All of a sudden he was staring nkly because Ji Yuan had suddenly taken out his pierced sword and he had pierced it into his heart!

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Ops, my hands slipped."

    He added nonchntly, "You and me, we''re different."

    The reason why he had said that was because he had once peeped at Xue Qianxue and had survived the encounter but he did not have any ill-intention on her.

    However, regarding the incident today, he had seen what Hua Yingxiong was trying to do and he could even see the hidden profound energies that were on Grand Matriarch Xi''s fingers. It was obvious to him that they were trying to harm Yang Mi.

    With that he had killed Hua Yingxiong.

    Yang Mi gasped with shock¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly raised her voice to shout at Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan! Why did you kill your aplice? Do you believe that by doing so, you can free yourself from this incident?"

    Then she was pointing at Little Princess, "And you have one more aplice here too as well!"

    She turned to look at Yang Mi, "You are still too young and simple. You did not know that this Ji Yuan is actually the beast of a man."

    Yang Mi shook her head tearfully, "But he has just exposed Hua Yingxiong and ''her''. They can''t be aplices."

    ''Her'' referred to Little Princess.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping pretended to shake her head sorrowfully, "My dear Yang Mi, this is all a ploy to trick you into thinking that he is a good man. By sacrificing Hua Yingxiong, he will be winning over your trust. Why do you think all these maidens are all sticking with him? Why do you think even my Jingjing is so hopelessly in love with him?"

    Yang Mi began to stare at Ji Yuan and her tears were shimmering down on her cheeks, "Please tell me that this isn''t the truth?"

    Ji Yuan was clearly upset as he said angrily, "Of course this isn''t true!"

    Instead of being a good guy, he was now bitten by this Grand Matriarch Xi.

    Now that Hua Yingxiong was dead, he could not argue with this Grand Matriarch Xi anymore because he knew that the bonds between master and prot¨¦g¨¦ were deep. Nothing he said could rock their rtionship unless he had some evidences.

    And evidences were something that he did not have!

 Chapter 484 Fingers Pointing (2)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had already shed her heaven-step divine sword in front of Ji Yuan and she was now saying to Yang Mi, "Disy your divine sword as well for tonight we have two demons to y!"

    Little Princess walked mesmerizing toward Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, swaying her mesmerizing figure as she smiled. "While I don''t know who you are but I know that you are definitely a practitioner of the dual cultivation arts. Lady, why don''t you repent from your wanton ways instead or do you want to force my hands?"

    Ji Yuan answered wryly while he was secretly watching her swaying slim figure, "She is Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and also the leader of the Holy Oracle Sect. This Grand Matriarch Xi is also a great saintess. Her celestial n is one of the top three most powerful celestial ns in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. Little Princess, you ought to be careful of her. Let me fight her instead."

    Then he looked at Yang Mi, "As for the maiden that is behind her, she is Saintess Yang Mi. But don''t harm her. It is because she is Jingjing''s friend."

    Little Princess raised a lovely look at Ji Yuan as she disyed her heaven-step divine sword, "Oh?"

    She knew Yu Jingjing of course and she could tell that she was infatuated with Ji Yuan.

    Matriarch Xi Jingping had turned to look at Yang Mi, "Where is your divine sword? Didn''t I just expose this beast of a man and can''t you see that they are going to gang up to deal with us."

    Yang Mi reply had suddenly stunned her for she had replied, "I trust that Ji Yuan is a good man."

    Matriarch Xi Jingping was held speechless. "You¡­"

    Even Little Princess was stunned by Yang Mi because they had not caught hold of Matriarch Xi''s criminal evidences yet.

    And also because Little Princess did not want to tell anyone that she was once from the Evil Cultivation Pce and that her heretic divine sense would be able to tell if a cultivator''s soul sea was tainted by the dual cultivation art.

    Ji Yuan was now looking at Yang Mi with a weird expression, "Huh?!"

    He has always believed that the master-prot¨¦g¨¦ bond was stronger than anything else and cannot be shattered by mere words.

    Little Princess sarcastically chuckled, "It seems that another maiden has fallen in love with his good looks."

    Xiang Li agreed silently: That''s right! Me too as well!

    Ji Yuan was offended as he muttered weakly, "What does my looks have to do with this matter? Leave my looks alone¡­"

    Yang Mi was flushing shyly as she looked at Ji Yuan and her cheeks were burning as she said silently: Everything¡­

    Matriarch Xi Jingping said coldly to Yang Mi, "Yang Mi! How dare you disobey your grand matriarch and prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress! I''ve asked you to draw your divine sword and you''ve dared to disobey my decree?"

    Yang Mi quickly answered with weak voice, "Grand Matriarch, I think that you ought to investigate first. Ji Yuan, he may be just passing by. As for this maiden in ck, she may be wrong to use you but we can always ask her to provide proof or else none of us will be treating her words seriously."

    What Yang Mi had said was totally rational.

    Even Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was thinking: If there is no proof then they can''t do anything against me. Now that Jue Jie and Lin Antian are all my living furnaces, they will need to obey me. I also have Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan to aid me. Even Jingjing and Yang Mi will not like to see their grand matriarch getting humiliated in front of the rest. No matter how formidable Ji Yuan is, he can''t fight all of us at the same time¡­

    "You have two options." Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her, startling Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Little Princess and Yang Mi at the same time.

    "One is to cripple your cultivation core and to cultivate again. Secondly, I will have to put you down today."

    What Ji Yuan had suddenly said shocked Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Yang Mi for his words were far too ruthless!

    Ji Yuan exined, "If Little Princess says you are an evil dual cultivator, then you are one. I''vepleted faith in what she has just said."

    Little Princess was touched by what Ji Yuan had just said.

    She knew why Ji Yuan had hated the evil dual cultivators so much, especially the cultivators from the Evil Cultivator Pce.

    And she was very much to be med for this¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was suddenly smiling, "What if I don''t do what you''ve just said? What if I choose to refuse your demands?"

    Naturally she knew what would happen as she continued, "We are both great saints. Do you think that I am afraid of you? Do you dare to fight me one to one?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised that Grand Matriarch Xi was actually challenging him so he answered immediately, "Why not?"

    Little Princess gasped softly while Grand Matriarch Xi was smiling.

    It was because they could both tell that somehow Ji Yuan was not in his peak condition and his profound strength seemed to be ''weak''.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Isn''t this what you''ve wanted in the first ce?"

    She had given up on defending herself because this Ji Yuan was just too unreasonable. If he wants to fight then they shall fight!

    Yang Mi could notpose herself; it was because she did not want her grand matriarch to be dead nor did she want Ji Yuan to be dead either. And now both of them are challenging each other to a duel!

    Barely had Little Princess stepped forward, Ji Yuan was saying sternly to her. "This is between the two of us so I hope my dearest Little Princess will be a spector today."

    With a soft sigh, Little Princess had stepped back but not without muttering some curses.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Ji Yuan were immediately encircling each other with their divine swords in their hands!<sub> </sub>

    A golden light in the form of a goddess had suddenly burst forth from Grand Matriarch Xi''s profound animus and she was carrying a bnce, startling Ji Yuan and Little Princess.

    All of a sudden Grand Matriarch Xi''s profound strength had suddenly increased to that of a peaked great saintess!

    Yang Mi gasped with awe, "This is the spirit animus of the Holy Oracle Goddess that is appearing¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly made her move and she was enveloped in her pure profound power as she attacked Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan dared not be careless as he raised his sword spirit to empower his saint-step divine sword to brace himself for the attack.

    There was a brilliant light as they shed together in a blink of an eye and they appeared to be even.

    But all of a sudden the spirit animus above Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had swung her golden bnce. Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly lifted his sword to block the attack but still he was being swapped by the golden bnce!

    This caused him to fly backward and he had struck the back of the cave in a thunderous impact!

    Little Princess and Yang Mi were shocked and they were now fearing for Ji Yuan.

    But as soon as the debris had settled, everyone could see a bloodied Ji Yuan had already picked himself up but he was shaking weakly.

    Ji Yuan coughed weakly; he had not expected to find a true spirit cultivator here and she could even attack with her spirit animus. At first he had thought that she was a power cultivator and that her spirit animus was only there to lend aid to her profound strength.

    But that was not the point; he was now depleted of his inner spiritual sea¡­

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling for she could sense that Ji Yuan''s profound animus had dimmed.

    She had a secret and this secret allowed her to see the inner spiritual sea of a cultivator. This was due to her years of training in spirit cultivation and it had now be her trump card against Ji Yuan.

    That was also the reason why she had chosen to challenge Ji Yuan.

    While she did not understand why Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea seemed to be empty, it was no longer important to know why. As long as he was not able to bring forth his full profound strength, it was just a matter of time before she could destroy his golden body.

    p Without waiting for Ji Yuan to react, Grand Matriarch Xi had suddenly shed toward him and her profound animus was shaped like a bright golden phoenix!</anda>

    Ji Yuan saw her attack and he was bracing for the profound attack now¡­

    But all of a sudden Yang Mi was pierced through her slim body by Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping for she had suddenly shed in front to block the attack for him.

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not even stop her attack for she had wanted Ji Yuan to be dead!

    Ji Yuan was stunned for he had already readied his life force energies to retaliate against Grand Matriarch Xi.

    His life force energies were able to force him to use his profound strength at his highest peak and he was already aiming at Grand Matriarch Xi.

    Instead Ji Yuan channeled half of his profound strength to hold protectively onto Yang Mi and he threw half of his other profound energies at Grand Matriarch Xi.

    To his horror, he saw that his profound attack against Grand Matriarch Xi seemed to have dissipated all of a sudden and that he had wasted his life force energies.

    It was because Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could sense that Ji Yuan''s attack was most unusual and she had suddenly used one of her golden talismans!

    And she had vanished!

    Ji Yuan was now holding onto a pale looking Yang Mi as he slowly whispered woefully to her, "Yang Mi, close your eyes to rest for now¡­"

    "Did I¡­ save you¡­" Yang Mi gasped weakly.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "You don''t have to help me. I can handle my own battles¡­"

    But Yang Mi merely smiled before she closed her eyes.

    All of a sudden there was the voice of Grand Matriarch Xi outside the cave and she was shouting with her profound strength, "Ji Yuan! Do you dare toe out to fight me?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Didn''t she use the golden talisman already?"

    Little Princess answered the question for him, "If you have used the golden talisman outside a trial, it will teleport you to the edge of the final trial. But if you are inside a trial area and this is a trial area, you will only be teleported nearby. Also by using the golden talisman, her inner spiritual seas will also be fully replenished. In other words, you will be fighting her at full strength again."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly as he struggled to stand straight. "And I am almost depleted of my inner spiritual sea and even my life force energies."

    But he shouted aloud nevertheless, "Old Witch Xi! Wait for me! I aming for you!"

    Then he carefully put the bloodied Yang Mi into Little Princess'' arms, "Please help me to take good care of her. This is my battle!"

    With that he had sped out of the cave.

 Chapter 485 Great Saint Vs. Great Saint (1)

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping profound voice was resonating throughout the Gods'' Monument City, making no secret of her presence. "Ji Yuan, are you a cowardly sword saint that dares not fight with me?"

    All the cultivators could hear her voice!

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi and Yu Jingjing were all aroused by Grand Matriarch Xi''s challenge and they had no idea what was going on.

    Yu Jingjing was bbergasting with shock; Ji Yuan had simply told her that he was only going to ''confirm'' something but how could he have end up picking a fight with her grand matriarch?

    Mo Bei and Qin Shuang were entangled together in a secluded cave and they were also startled by the challenge.

    Just as Mo Bei was about to investigate what was going on outside, Qin Shuang had pulled him back to her and she was looking full of coquettishness. "Don''t go. I need you."

    She was still under thest decree of Grand Matriarch Xi but Mo Bei did not know this.

    Qin Shuang looked lustfully at Mo Bei with her jade figure and her nectar was overflowing as she kissed Mo Bei passionately, "Please don''t go¡­"

    So how could Mo Bei leave her?

    As for Xiao Muhan and the other cultivators in the vicinity, almost all of them were aroused from their meditations and they were all rushing to take a look at the fight; it was because an open fight between two great saints were not to be missed and they might even gain an insight or two, be it cultivation insights or fighting insights.

    Jue Jie and Lin Antian had of course heard Grand Matriarch Xi''s voice and they too, were curious.

    Moreover Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was purposely shouting tactfully, "Great Saint Jue Jie, Great Saint Lin Antian and Saint Xiao Muhan,e watch me fight with Ji Yuan!"

    She had summoned them subtly!

    As for Ji Yuan, she was taunting him to fight.

    And Ji Yuan had of course answered her call and he had appeared in the middle of the Gods'' Monument City, "Old Witch Xi, I am here!"

    He was angry of course and for two reasons.

    Firstly, she had hurt Yang Mi and did not even slow down her attack; she had even make use of her to act as a shield so that she could kill him.

    Secondly when he had used his sword of destruction or life force energies, she had sensed a vast amount of profound energies that were suddenly gathering. Moreover Ji Yuan''s profound strength seemed to have been restored.

    She soon recognized that Ji Yuan was sacrificing his life essence topete with her and moreover she had the spirit animus of the Holy Oracle Goddess and could gauge Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea with great uracy.

    Therefore she had chosen to use one of her golden talismans to void Ji Yuan''s attack and caused it to be executed in vain.

    p It was not all before Grand Matriarch Xi and Ji Yuan had met once more as they had their divine sense on each other.</anda>

    They were also quickly apanied by plenty of unknown cultivators who were all watching the fight gleefully.

    Ji Yuan chuckled when he saw Grand Matriarch Xi, "You can only run once but not twice. Now we shall finish our fight!"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping wasughing coldly, "Is that so?"

    She actually had another three golden talismans that were on her.

    The golden talisman actually had two secret uses and it was difficult for the first timers to find out. For example, when used in the trial area, the golden talisman could teleport them nearby.

    The second secret use was that it could also restore a cultivator''s inner spiritual sea to its brink.

    Now this was advantageous to Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping as her Holy Oracle Goddess would consume a vast amount of her inner spiritual seas, limiting her actualbat ability. But now, she had no such weakness.

    As Ji Yuan and Grand Matriarch Xi began to face off with each other, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Yu Jingjing had also arrived nearby and were shocked that they were actually fighting with each other.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was actually exasperated by Ji Yuan for he did not act the part of a righteous orthodox cultivator and had caused her carefully nned schemes to fold.<sub> </sub>

    Nevertheless, I shall first kill Ji Yuan and give an exnationter. How about I call him an evil dual cultivator?

    She could not help taunting him, "Ji Yuan, you look like a sick cultivator. Muahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan shed his sword spirt on his saintly divine sword, "Hehe. Xiang Li and I are not so weak. I can still use my sword spirit!"

    Xiang Li chuckled: That''s right!

    Anyang was pleading with Ji Yuan in his soul sea: Master! Lord Consort! Your Anyang wants to fight too!

    Ji Yuan could only weakly answer her: Later. I just don''t have the profound strength now. It is all thanks to Dream Mist.

    Now when the Great Beyond Goddess had heard Ji Yuan, her heart began to shake with guilt. She knew that she should not be interfering with any destiny and had only kick the ck cliff for fun. Little did she know that she would cause Ji Yuan such pain.

    But all of a sudden her divine sense alerted her to an energy fluctuation that was abnormal as she thought: The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth seems to be acting weirdly¡­ is it because she has absorbed that metamorphed cultivator called Yin Wei?

    Outside Ji Yuan was already flying toward Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping as he disyed the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon; he no longer had any profound strength to disy the super version.

    The Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon zapped like a powerful sword of white sword energy light to attack Grand Matriarch Xi even as Ji Yuan shed behind it to attack her.

    Grand Matriarch Xi shouted, "Is this a joke?"

    She had used her Holy Oracle Goddess to dissipate Ji Yuan''s Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon even as Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Yun Chi were allmenting that Ji Yuan''s performance was looking weird.

    Powerful profound power began to pour into the Holy Oracle Goddess from Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping as the Holy Oracle Goddess disyed her ultimate profound attack on Ji Yuan right after the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was dissipated.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he braced for the attack before he disyed his golden talisman, "Time for round two. Hehehe¡­"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked when Ji Yuan had suddenly disappeared.

    A short secondter, Ji Yuan powerful profound voice would be heard echoing in the darkness. "Old Witch Xi! Where are you? I am back!"

    All the other cultivators were watching the duel with interest and were blinking their eyes. One must know that while there were many fifth realm cultivators, the number of saint cultivators were actually in the majority in the final trial and they outnumbered great saints 20:1.

    So when they saw so many great saints and saintess arriving in a big group, most of them really did not dare to offend Ji Yuan''s team. It was because the disparity between a saint and a great was simply too big a disparity for them to beat in a one to one fight.

    But right now, they were seeing an in-fighting between two great saints and that aroused their interest.

    Just as Yu Jingjing was questioning were they for real, Ji Yuan had suddenly returned!

    He was grinning and the peak of his great saint profound aura was really pronounced. On both his hands were his two saint-step divine swords and shining sword spirits.

    He began to remind Xiang Li in his soul sea: Xiang Li, don''t forget to enhance Anyang and my two sword spiritster. Just like you have always been doing!

    Xiang Li began to look a little guilty as she answered Ji Yuan: Even if your Xiang Li can enhance the spiritual auras of Anyang and your sword spirits but you have never asked me to do any enhancement. So I''ve forgotten about it.

    Anyang face-palmed herself: Our master has always assumed that Xiang Li will help with the spiritual augment but she iszy Xiang Li. How can you expect her to do anything on her own?

    Xiang Li protested immediately: It''s all Big Brother fault. He has never reminded me¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 486 Great Saint Vs. Great Saint (2)

    The profound animus that was upon Ji Yuan was truly terrifying and many of the cultivators could not believe what they were seeing now.

    It was because Ji Yuan had two saint-step divine swords!

    ording to the celestial lore, there were less than ten saint-step divine swords in the entire Three Known Realms!

    This was not the only thing that had freaked them for Ji Yuan had two sword spirits on both his forearms, one left and one right!

    They were all asking with shock, "What do you think is the profound power of his sword spirits?"

    When Lin Antian saw Ji Yuan, he was also shocked: Is our disparity so great?!

    Even Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping''s face was suddenly twitching now; she had been in Ji Yuan''s party and she did not even know that he had a second saint-step divine sword and even a second sword spirit.

    How was this even possible?!

    Has he been acting all this while? Acting the weak cultivator?!

    It was not that Ji Yuan wanted to act like the weak cultivator but he was continuously beaten up by the Great Beyond Goddess who shared his soul sea and he really could not lift a second saint-step divine sword or to muster a second sword spirit.

    But now thanks to Grand Matriarch Xi who had told him that the golden talisman could create a miracle by restoring all his inner spiritual sea, he had wasted no time to use it.

    Ji Yuan''s sword intentions from his two spirit spirits had brought down many of the cultivators even before he had moved; it was because they could all see his sword intentions and it was unparallel.

    Even Grand Matriarch Xi was breaking in cold sweat now.

    In the mean time Ji Yuan was grinning, "They have always said a sword cultivator is weak. Today I am able to test my limits against a powerful Spirit Cultivator."

    Grand Matriarch Xi had suddenly shouted, "Jue Jie, Lin Antian, Xiao Muhan and Jingjing,e to my side immediately!"

    Immediately Jue Jie, Lin Antian and Xiao Muhan had shed next to Matriarch Xi.

    Xiao Muhan found himself saying, "Ji Yuan is bullying ady. This is so unrighteous. Therefore I must help Grand Matriarch Xi!"

    He had no idea that he was beingmanded by Grand Matriarch Xi and he would give any excuse to justify her decrees.

    And the same went for Lin Antian and Jue Jie as well!

    This was followed slowly by Yu Jingjing and it was obvious that she was hesitant to obey her grand matriarch and to fight Ji Yuan.

    Jue Jie''s powerful animus had suddenly burst forth, revealing an eighth rank immortal ss colosseum giant and he was smiling, "You''ve thought too highly of your saintly swords and sword spirits. How about seeing my profound aura. I am a Defense Cultivator and no one had yet to prate through my profound defense."

    The colosseum giant was huge and exerting a powerful pressure upon all the cultivators presented and it was like a gigantic wall of force!

    Even Ji Yuan was forced to admit that his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and even his miracle sword art was helpless in front of this formidable aura. It was because in order to block his energy attacks, the defender would only need to exert 70% of the profound power. And both Ji Yuan and this Jue Jie''s profound strength was almost simr.

    Many of the cultivators were in awe.

    "This is an immortal eighth rank deste monster! Eighth rank! What a godly spirit animus!"

    "Don''t forget that it is also an immortal ss eighth rank!"

    "Who can withstand Jue Jie?"

    "Erm, three great saints versus one great saint? How is this fight fair?"

    Lin Antian spoke next and his voice was masculine and powerful, "I guess that I don''t have to hide my cultivation strength anymore."

    As he had said that, he had lifted his ck spear and a powerful pressure could be sensed from within.

    To the horror of all the cultivators, the ck spear began to shatter and a white spear began to lit up from it.

    It was also a saint-step divine weapon!

    Everyone was shocked and startled.

    As Lin Antian lifted his white spear, they all noticed that there was also a white sword spirit on his right forearm!

    He said coolly, "I happen to be a Power Cultivator. Even though you may have two saintly divine swords but you won''t be able to carry both swords for too long. Therefore after a few rounds, your advantage will be bust."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and did not disagree.

    All the cultivators were now taking side bets that Ji Yuan would surely lose. It was because there was no way that he would be able to defeat three top cultivators!

    "This is truly a most terrifying fight between the great saints!"

    "I''ve never seen anything like this¡­"

    "I may be a great saint but¡­ let''s forget about me. They are on another league¡­"

    When Xiao Muhan was standing next to Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Jue Jie and Lin Antian, he felt that he actually got nothing to contribute.

    So he shouted at Ji Yuan, "Old friend! I hope that you will show me a little mercy, right?"

    Ji Yuan disyed an ugly look, "If I don''t aim at you, do I have the chance with the others? You are the weakest."<sub> </sub>

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    You are really my best friend¡­

    Yu Jingjing who was a middle tier saintess was actually a cultivation level higher than Xiao Muhan began to take out the heaven-step zither that Ji Yuan had given her and she had disyed a woeful battle stance.

    Although she looked like she was ready to fight Ji Yuan in her battle stance but her woeful expression gave her away to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan simply nodded in her direction and he would ignore Yu Jingjingter. It was because he could not hit his beloved Jingjing and he knew that Jingjing would not attack him as well for she was only acting on an act.

    All of a sudden the Great Beyond Goddess whom many had recognized her as Dream Mist shed in front of Ji Yuan and she was saying to him, "It isn''t fair for you to fight alone. Let me give you a hand. Let me make repents on my mistake."

    When she had said, all the other cultivators began to turn ashen because they had all remembered how her kick at the ck cliff had racked 33,333 points!

    The smiling Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Lin Antian and Jue Jie had all turned ashen immediately!

    Jue Jie had broken into cold sweats on his back because he was now imagining his eighth rank immortal ss spirit animus getting shattered by just one kick and he would suffer a bacsh¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he saw her and he said to Dream Mist in front of all the cultivators, "No thanks. You are thest person I want help from."

    It was because he was truly terrified of her and was afraid that she was here to drain his profound energies instead. Therefore he had thought that it was much wiser not to ept her aid instead.

    The Great Beyond Goddess took a guilty look at Ji Yuan before she quietly walked but she could not help feeling bad¡­

    When she had walked away, Matriarch Xi Jingping, Lin Antian, Jue Jie and Xiao Muhan were all suddenly feeling very relieved.

    Only Yu Jingjing appeared to have a regretful look...

    Above the tforms of the tower monuments.

    Feng Minyue was dumbfounded as she said in a usual quiet demeanor, "Did Ji Yuan just send the most powerful cultivator away?"

    Yun Chi raised her eyebrows as she sighed softly, "I am sure... impressed by him sometimes."

    Ling Feiyue was shouting to her group, "How is this fight being fair to begin with? Come! Let''s go down and fight them. With Sister Qianfeng here, we don''t have to worry about this fight."

    Feng Minyue nodded, "The four of us are all great saintess. Including Ji Yuan, that''s five of us. Five vs. three great saints, this is only fair!"

    Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue were suddenly looking at Yun Chi and they seemed to be seeking her approval.

    Yun Chi could only smile weakly for she did not want to risk her unborn daughter. "Honestly I doubt that you are all a match for them, especially that Lin Antian there."

    Bai Qianfeng was shocked, "You are really not helping?"

    Yun Chi giggled softly before she shook her head.

    Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue saw that Bai Qianfeng had an ugly look on her alluring features and she was muttering, "And I thought that the two of you are so close."

    But Yun Chi was smiling all of a sudden, "Don''t worry. Ji Yuan can fight his own battle."

    Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue: ???

    Then Yun Chi got up to the edge to shout to Ji Yuan below, "Great Hero Ji Yuan, are you dead?"

    Down below, Ji Yuan really had an ugly look because he was now being bashed by Lin Antian, Jue Jie and Matriarch Xi. Even Xiao Muhan was taking small pokes at him.

    The battle ground below was filled with profound energies and the ground below was shaking violently with the disy of their profound powers.

    Ji Yuan parried with his two divine swords as he was attacked by all his enemies at once, "Maybe¡­ not for long¡­ do you have any golden talisman¡­ to spare?"

    Yun Chi said coolly, "Why don''t you release your spirit animus?"

    Ji Yuan: Huh?

    Yun Chi giggled, "Trust me. This time it will surely work."

    Ji Yuan: Really?!

    And he had suddenly consumed half of his inner spiritual sea and a burst of profound power began to explode around him, sending Lin Antian, Jue Jie, Xiao Muhan and Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to fly off all of a sudden and shocking them.

    All of a sudden they could see that an angel spirit animus with six wings had appeared around Ji Yuan and this profound aura had quickly pronounced him as a eighth realm middle tier immortal cultivator!

    All the onlookers that did not know Ji Yuan were shocked with disbelief!

    They were now witnessing a cultivator that had reached his limits and that his spirit animus had the rare power to grant him beyond his cultivation realm!

    Ji Yuan wasughing, "I''ve also have an immortal ss spiritual animus and it is an Cherubim Demonic Deste Monster. Wakakaka."

    Then he said, "Now it is your turn to DIE!!!"

 Chapter 487 Great Saint Vs. Great Saint (3)

    The power disparity between an eighth realm middle tier cultivator like Ji Yuan and a peaked great saint was all too terrifying even though he was not a power cultivator or a cultivator that specialized in profound power.

    This was especially so when Ji Yuan had two saint-step divine swords in his hands which no longer weighed down upon him like before.

    Moreover Ji Yuan''s demonic cherubim spirit animus orded him three pairs of wings that enhanced his speed even more.

    And he used this speed to pursue his opponents relentlessly.

    However he had chosen to ignore Yu Jingjing and merely gave Xiao Muhan a few kicks.

    But for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Jue Jie and Lin Antian, they were totally a different thing and he was determined to defeat them.

    Jue Jie had used all his profound power to resist Ji Yuan''s charge and he was being empowered by his almighty eighth rank immortal ss spirit animus.

    But no sooner had Ji Yuan swung his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon, Jue Jie had coughed blood immediately and the ground below him was destroyed by their conflicting profound powers.

    Lin Antian swung his white spear to resist Ji Yuan but instead he was sent crushing onto the ground.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had tried to aid Lin Antian but it was already toote. Before she knew it, Ji Yuan had sent another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to forcible strike her, causing her profound animus to tear apart and even her Holy Oracle Goddess was unstable.

    Yu Jingjing gasped when she saw the state that her grand matriarch was in, "Grand Matriarch!"

    Then she quickly turned to Ji Yuan to raise her profound voice, "Ji Yuan, why are you attacking my grand matriarch?! What is wrong with you today?"

    Ji Yuan was still fighting Lin Antian when he had heard Yu Jingjing so he shouted, "That is because she really is a practitioner of the dark cultivation art! Jingjing, do you know that she is trying to turn Yang Mi into her living furnace?"

    Yu Jingjing was startled as she turned to look at her surroundings, "Huh? Where is Yang Mi now?"

    "She is dying now and it is all thanks to your grand matriarch. But¡­ don''t worry¡­ I''ve a good friend that¡­ is currently¡­ taking care of her now¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s answer shocked Yu Jingjing to the bones.

    All of a sudden Lin Antian had raised his white spear and had struck Ji Yuan with his profound power merely because he was momentarily distracted.

    This caused Ji Yuan to stumble backward.

    Seeing this great opportunity, Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping shouted. "Come! Let''s attack together with our profound arts!"

    Immediately after she had said that, Lin Antian, Jue Jie, Xiao Muhan and her began to attack Ji Yuan with their ultimate profound arts.

    Ji Yuan''s reaction was not slow as he immediately reacted with two super white sword energies in the form of two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, "What? He can use his two ultimate sword arts together?!"

    Even Jue Jie and Lin Antian were shocked by the sudden onughter.

    Xiao Muhan was horrified, "Ji Yuan you rascal! I am also here!"

    The two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon literally ovee all their profound arts. The disparity between seventh rank profound arts and two eighth rank profound arts were simply too vast!

    Soon a storm of profound energies then exploded right in front of them, burning through their profound animus and defenses as it burned through their defensive clothing!

    The impact of the explosion was so great that it not only scattered them but burned a huge pit where they hadst stood!

    Just when they had thought that it was over, Ji Yuan had charged upward toward them and his divine swords had turned white and were glowing brightly like a cross.

    Everyone was startled at how fast Ji Yuan could use another profound art again and the profound power that was gathering now was much more powerful than any that they had ever since.

    In fact, it was more powerful than the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and the profound power that had gathered was exerting a tremendous pressure!

    Everyone had immediately recognized that it was a miracle sword art. Only a miracle sword art would exert such a tremendous amount of power.

    Ji Yuan had seized the opportunity to use his ultimate miracle sword art, the Light of the Sacred Swords when his opponents were down or trying to recuperate back their profound strength. This sword art was actually quite slow to use but it was really powerful. Moreover it was the very first time that he had used two of them together and it was at his eighth realm power.

    In his seventh realm great saint form, he was actually unable to use two miracle sword arts together.

    But today he was going to exhaust all his profound strength to deal with these three super cultivators.<sub> </sub>

    Grand Matriarch Xi shouted hastily, "Jue Jie! Use your life to tank it for us! Only you can do it! If you are able to tank this then he will bepletely exhausted and be vulnerable next!"

    Jue Jie was actually shivering with great fear and he was actually trying to evade this move since this was a melee move which required point to point contact.

    But when he had heard the decree of Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, he had lost his fear all of a sudden and he immediately charged toward Ji Yuan to disy all the remnant of his profound power.

    The profound aura that Jue Jie could muster was extremely massive for he had twice the inner spiritual sea of the typical cultivators and he was also a defense type.

    Ji Yuan could not stop his attacks and he was forced to engage Jue Jie.

    There were two bright lights in the form of a gigantic grand cross as it imploded upon Jue Jie!

    Jue Jie was shocked at the pressure that was generated against him. Even with his super profound aura and his 8th rank defensive immortal spirit, he did not stand a chance against the profound art that was upon him; hehad died instantly and every single part of his golden skeleton in his body was broken!

    When Ji Yuan saw his newly created miracle profound art, he was shocked at the power that it was able to generate and it was 5 times stronger than a single Ultimate Sacred Sword Miracle Art. So he called it the Miracle Grand Cross after the first time for looking like a constetion grand cross.

    Ji Yuan was now exhausted and he could no longer use any of his super profound arts or miracle arts; he was almostpletely drained and he could only use the normal heavenly light of the coiling dragon but it was a little useless against the great saint cultivators because projectiles were actually weaker than pin-point profound attacks.

    Then he would raise his saint-step divine swords against them until he broke through their profound defenses!

    But before he could speed to attack them, Matriarch Xi Jingping and Lin Antian had raised their fingers to use the golden talismans in their hands!

    Ji Yuan was shocked as they blinked into the thin air!

    "What?! They areing back for round 3?"

    He began to shout furiously, "Old Witch Xi! So you want a round 3? Fine! Fine!"

    At this time, his spirit animus had suddenly dissipated and Ji Yuan felt a lot heavier.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that he had overdrawn his eighth realm profound energies and he could no longer be able to activate his spirit animus again.

    He almost banged his head as he cursed: This is such a bad timing¡­

    But after waiting for a few minutes, he had suddenly realized that they were noting back and had run away together!

    "They are noting back?!"

    Xiao Muhan was groaning with pain as he cursed Ji Yuan, "You rascal. Are you trying to kill me?"

    Ji Yuan growled softly as he looked at his friend Xiao Muhan, "Honestly, I think that you are in trouble. Did you or did not copte with that Old Witch Xi?"

    Xiao Muhan stared at Ji Yuan and he was also looking guilty at Yu Jingjing, "I am afraid that this is a secret."

    Ji Yuanughed as he patted Xiao Muhan hard on his shoulder, "Then the answer is yes."

    Xiao Muhan became very flustered but he did not dare to say a word more.

    Ji Yuan pulled Xiao Muhan toward him, away from Yu Jingjing as he whispered. "You know my friend. If you are a living furnace then I think you are in deep trouble. Even your cultivation realm will not advance anymore. And I am not going to let you touch any of my beloveds. Therefore, you can only settle your needs yourself."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Slowly he asked, "Are you serious? Grand Matriarch Xi really knows the dark dual cultivation art?"

    Ji Yuan answered him, "If you are not under her spell, why should a coward like you suddenly decides to fight me? Are you nuts?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

 Chapter 488 The Great Saintsâ€™ Battle Is Over!

    While Ji Yuan was talking to Xiao Muhan, he was looking out for any sights that were from either Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Lin Antian.

    However there was none to speak of.

    It was as though they had totally disappeared after using the golden talismans.

    This was the truth; after they had disappeared from the ''arena'', they had decided to flee instead of fighting Ji Yuan again.

    While Lin Antian had no more golden talisman but he was unwilling to take the risk of fighting Ji Yuan again and he had quickly made his concerns known to Grand Matriarch Xi.

    Even though Grand Matriarch Xi still have some golden talisman to restore her profound strength but she was now unwilling to fight Ji Yuan as well; she totally had no idea the limit of an eighth rank immortal positioning cultivator was. This was the legendary peak and only the deste monsters would possess such strength.

    For Jue Jie to have an eighth rank immortal ss colosseum giant to be his spirit animus, he must first kill one and to obtain its rarely dropped artefact core. The number of golden celestials required to y it was unimagined!

    It must be noted that a deste monster was stronger than a cultivator due to its strong body, regeneration ability and near unlimited profound strength. A single seventh rank deste monster was sometimes more than a match for a saint and depending on the ss of the seventh rank deste monster, it could even kill a great saint.

    Any deste monster above the eighth rank was a total freak and it was near impossible for any cultivators to deal with. Even heaven-step divine swords in the hands of a great saint may not enough to deal any damage.

    So when she saw Ji Yuan had two saint-step divine sword which was more powerful than a heaven-step, celestial-step and an immortal-step divine sword, she was almost freaked out. Moreover Ji Yuan was an eighth rank cultivator with two sword spirits.

    ? One to one, she could not even escape from him for his speed was even greater than her and he could sh between one cultivator to another at ease.

    At one point of time, she was even thinking of using Yu Jingjing, her direct prot¨¦g¨¦ as an hostage but Ji Yuan seemed to anticipate it and in fact, he even increased his profound strength and pursue her relentless each time she was even near or looking at Yu Jingjing. This was a warning to her and she was forced to heed this warning.

    She had also wanted to use Xiao Muhan as her hostage but when she saw Ji Yuan kicking his ''best friend'' so hard, she thought that this may be a bad choice after all.

    Instead she focused on fighting Ji Yuan with everything that she had got.

    But when Ji Yuan disyed his two miracle sword arts, she hadpletely lost her courage to fight with him.

    So she lied to Jue Jie to give him the impression that they would be making a counter-attack but behind him, she was already shing her golden talisman and this was not lost on Lin Antian who nodded in response.

    Even when Jue Jie had died, he had assumed that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Lin Antian would be making their counter-attacks.

    The truth was that they had all exhausted their profound strength fighting Ji Yuan and even Grand Matriarch Xi''s Holy Oracle Goddess was about to be extinguished.

    So fleeing was their only option now.

    When Ji Yuan saw that they had fled, he shouted to the vicinity, "Old Witch Xi, where are you?!"

    But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not even dare to response to him on the outskirt of the Gods'' Monument City.

    She told Lin Antian, "Let''s go for now. We can still live to fight another day. It is not so easy to kill a great saint like us."

    Lin Antian was trembling as he weakly said, "I¡­ still have a hidden trump card to use against him."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, "Why didn''t you use it then? Tell me."

    Usually no cultivators would tell another cultivator about their trump card but she had purposely said, "Tell me.".

    As Lin Antian was her living furnace, she hadplete control over him and moreover a living furnace would never think of attacking their master.

    Lin Antian answered, "It is my divine tree spirit animus that I''ve found in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. It is able to absorb all five elements and unlike the deste monster spirit animus, I am able to summon it at a low cost and it can even slow down Ji Yuan."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, "Then why didn''t you use it just now?"

    Lin Antian weakly said, "That is because this is my trump card and I can only use it only once! Moreover I don''t want any of the other cultivators to see my trump card."

    This was entire logical and moreover Lin Antian had not reached the stage of using his trump card yet.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled slowly, "Next time when we are copting, please tell me all your abilities so that we can sync together to kill Ji Yuan. He is really a beast of a man and I want to free my innocent prot¨¦g¨¦s from his evil hands."

    -<sub> </sub>

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had waited for some time for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to return and it was apparent to him and all the cultivators that were presented that Ji Yuan had indeed won this battle!

    There was no round three for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed triumphantly as he walked away from the ''arena'' with Yu Jingjing and Xiao Muhan.

    Many of the cultivators were bowing their heads and extending their hands to bow in Ji Yuan''s direction for Ji Yuan deserved their fullest respect for reaching a realm that no one had ever reached.

    "His name is Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I shall remember his name¡­"

    "Isn''t he from the Deste Celestial Realm and supposed to have a¡­ beard?"

    "His robe did not seem to radiate any profound animus¡­ is just amon robe?"

    "Don''t be disrespectful to him! He probably can hear us¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is truly too terrifying!"

    Ji Yuan had gathered Yu Jingjing and Xiao Muhan and soon they were with Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue.

    Dream Mist had also followed Ji Yuan but she had stood some distance away.

    The first thing he had said was, "Darn! Senior Mo Bei isn''t even here to watch my duel?!"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted coldly, "Instead of embracing us, the first thing that hase to your mind is actually a man?"

    Ji Yuan weakly protested, "He is still my Patriarch Uncle Mo Bei. I''ve married his grand niece Xue Qianxue¡­ Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly, "Look at you. It is just an eighth ream immortal positioning. It isn''t strong at all. This goddess here isn''t impressed by you."

    Even though Yu Jingjing, Xiao Muhan and Feng Minyue were all impressed by Ji Yuan but Bai Qianfeng did have her reasons for saying so and she actually had very right.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly because he knew that Bai Qianfeng was actually a goddess and she had attained the initial stage of the ninth immortal positioning. She was actually a lot more powerful than him if her cultivation strength was not being suppressed.

    But her love for him was genuine and Ji Yuan had remembered how she had sacrificed her cultivation to use the profound strength of her peaked cultivation to y an epic 7th rank deste beast, saving him and everyone in his sect poor mountain peaks.

    Therefore he was grinning while looking deeply at her, "My Qianfeng¡­"

    Obviously Bai Qianfeng saw his expression and she had looked away shyly¡­

    Yun Chi suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan, "So you can use your spirit animus again?"

    Ji Yuan began to frown as he looked at Yun Chi, "That is weird. This time my spirit animus is not dormant. Why?"

    "Don''t tell me that it is you¡­"

    Yun Chi quicklyughed, "You think too much, as always."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan said excitingly but he was also anxious as well, "Everyone, please follow me! We have an old friend here and let me bring you to Yang Mi!"

    "Oh? Not Senior Mo Bei?" Ling Feiyue could not help teasing him.

    Ji Yuan took a hurried look at her while answering weakly, "Not Mo Bei!"

 Chapter 489 Secrets Of The Holy Oracle Goddess

    Ji Yuan had arrived at a cave with his group, which consist of Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Yu Jingjing, Dream Mist and Xiao Muhan.

    This cave was the same exact cave that he had left earlier and where Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had injured Yang Mi.

    The first thing that they saw was the dead body of Hua Yingxiong that was on the edge of the cave. Someone had ruthlessly kicked his dead body outside.

    Other than Ji Yuan, the rest of the group was astonished to find a dead Hua Yingxiong in this ce.

    That was because Hua Yingxiong was supposed to be theirpanion.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly, "What had happened?"

    Ji Yuan exined without a remorse, "Well, I happened to kill him by ident."

    Everyone: ...

    Ling Feiyue said weakly to Ji Yuan, "This is definitely not the real reason. In all the cultivation stories, the MC will kill cultivators that are two realms higher but you seem to enjoy killing cultivators that are two realms lower all the time."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "That is not right..."

    "Just now he was an eighth realm middle tier cultivator against a couple of great saints. That is two or more realms disparity." Yun Chi had suddenly chuckled.

    JI Yuan: ...

    He began to mutter weakly, "We have more important things inside. Come inside to meet my ''old'' friend''."

    Inside the cave, Little Princess had just finished treating Yang Mi with profound pills and she was now healing Yang Mi''s wounds with profound energies.

    As soon as Ji Yuan had entered the cave, he began to said aloud. "Look who is in here!"

    Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue and Yu Jingjing were all bbergasted when they saw that it was Little Princess and was excited to see her again.

    But as soon as they saw that it was Yang Mi who was injured with a grievous wound and was ina, their excitement turned to shock and even anguish!

    Yu Jingjing was furious as she quickly flown next to the unconscious Yang Mi who was lying on the makeshift floor, "Who is the one that did this?!"

    Before Yu Jingjing could finish her words, Ji Yuan solemnly showed his angry fist. "It is that Old Witch Xi!"

    Yu Jingjing was shocked beyond belief, "This... this is... impossible...our grand matriarch really takes care of us..."

    Beyond these feelings, she was also feeling very guilty that she was secretly helping Ji Yuan and not her grand matriarch. As a matter of fact, when this was over, she had the intention to seek forgiveness with her grand matriarch.

    Xiao Muhan was stammering, "She really did this?"

    Ling Feiyue angrily stared at Xiao Muhan, "You are really bold to ask about this. Just now, why are you helping that Old Witch Xi to fight against Ji Yuan? Why are you still with us and not with that Old Witch Xi?"

    Xiao Muhan was lost for words, "Erm... because Ji Yuan is bullying ady, that''s why. I am actually trying to humble Ji Yuan a little..."

    Ji Yuan had bended down to examine Yang Mi''s injuries, began to interrupt nonchntly. "It isn''t Muhan''s fault. He has unknowing be a living furnace and has to obey themands of that Old Witch Xi."

    Xiao Muhan and the others were all startled...

    Xiao Muhan began to stammer with disbelief, "How is this even possible? I am a saint...

    Ji Yuan began to look at Little Princess for an answer. It was because she was the expert in this matter.

    Little Princess giggled mesmerizing at Ji Yuan before exining, "There is no doubt that Xiao Muhan is really a living furnace. That ''Old Witch Xi'' or whatever Ji Yuan calls her, she is an evil dual cultivator. Just now, she was trying to convert Yang Mi into her living furnace. As for the dead cultivator that is outside now, he is now a dead living furnace to that Old Witch Xi."

    Ji Yuan began to nod.

    During the fight earlier, Ji Yuan had no time to exin to anyone that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was an evil dual cultivator.

    Yu Jingjing was beginning to think that this was actually the matter that Ji Yuan was trying to confirm his suspicion earlier.

    Xiao Muhan had a look of confusion as he interrupted impatiently, "The sixth realm level is called the Spirit Level while the seventh realm level is called the Soul Level. How can we be affected by soul attacks to be a living furnace?"

    Little Princess nodded, "Usually this evil dual cultivation art can only be used against cultivators that are at least one realm below and usually not saints because saints are mostly immune to soul attacks. However, this is not a certainty because there are many weak saint cultivators like sword cultivators..."

    "I am a sword cultivator that has already formed my soul core and I have mastered the True Sacred Saint Profound Art." Ji Yuan could not help interrupting with a grin. "Therefore, I am sure I am immune."

    Little Princess began to giggle; she had actually purposely mentioned sword cultivators to taunt Ji Yuan and he had fallen for her little ruse. She knew that he could not resist an urge to protest.

    ? She continued, "However that Old Witch Xi is a Spirit Cultivator and she is very, very good in using spirit and soul attacks. Whenbine with the evil dual cultivation art, she is deadlier than a lot of the evil dual cultivators."

    Then she smiled enthralling to Yu Jingjing, "Earlier, I saw your grand matriarch disying the Holy Oracle Goddess as her spirit animus. This is unlike most spirit animus that I''ve seen. This spirit animus is formed from your soul core too, am I right? And you are also capable of using it."

    Slowly Yu Jingjing began to nod, "I am the Holy Oracle Priestess. Naturally I am able to cultivate a secret way to summon the Holy Oracle Goddess to be my spirit animus. But how do you know?"

    Little Princess casually smiled, "That is because in our Deste Celestial Fraternity, we have a friend who is called Xue Qianxue. She is able to use her Sacred Maiden Profound Art to summon a special type of aura spirit animus. That is exactly the same as your celestial profound art. Therefore there is no need for them to kill a deste monster and to obtain their artefact core to use it as their spirit animus."

    Xiao Muhan weakly asked, "Erm, so I am really screwed?"<sub> </sub>

    It sounds like no one was answering him as they continued to talk.

    Yu Jingjing slowly nodded, "The Holy Oracle Goddess is able to uncanny exploit the weakness of a cultivator''s soul core and also to sense their profound might. This is actually one of my trump cards."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Maiden Jingjing have so many trump cards."

    Yu Jingjing began to flush shyly as she looked at Ji Yuan; one of her other trump cards were hitting an opponent from below while diverting her profound energies elsewhere. She had previously used it when she was in the same trial as Ji Yuan when an evil cultivator had tried to trick her into surrendering her body.

    Xiao Muhan muttered slowly as he was beginning to understand his predicament, "So I am really screwed? Because that Old Witch Xi has that Holy Oracle Goddess and she can manipte profound energies in the soul core? But how do you know that I am really a living furnace?"

    Little Princessughed slow but beautifully; she was not going to let him know that she was actually one of the three Citadel Lords of the Evil Cultivation Pce and that she had even called the Evil Cultivation Master as her father.

    Few knew of Little Princess'' secret; Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue would naturally help her to keep her true identity aplete secret.

    Ji Yuan purposed patted on Xiao Muhan''s shoulder, "You know my friend. As a living furnace, your cultivation realm will no longer be able to increase anymore and you have to obey Old Witch Xi from now. And if you happen to copte with Old Witch Xi, I am afraid that you can only withstand her evil dual cultivation less than 10 times before you are dead. Even if you don''t meet her, you still need primeval yin to sustain yourself or you will also die."

    Then he chuckled loudly, "And since I''ve so many maidens here with me and I think that you are a risk factor, I should finish you here first."

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    "Seriously, you are ''such'' a good friend of mine." Xiao Muhan expression was sour and regretful; he had thought of showing off to Ji Yuan that he had banged Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping but he had ended up being a living furnace...

    Ji Yuan''s distraction for Little Princess allowed her to cook up an excuse as she smiled, "I have a special divine ability to see the tainted cultivators."

    Dream Mist who had been keeping quiet did not expose her lies and instead, she continued to listen nonchntly while quietly looking at Ji Yuan...

    Little Princess winked at Xiao Muhan, "However it is not impossible to be freed from the fate of being a living furnace. There are four ways to do so."

    Xiao Muhan wasughing immediately and he had suddenly brightened up, "four ways? This is way too many. Hahahaha..."

    Little Princess answered enchantingly, "The first way is to force a confinement for yourself and stay away from the opposite gender. Usually you will need around 10 years. You may lose some cultivation strength but you will be able to recover."

    "The second way is to cripple your cultivation core and to re-cultivate again."

    "The third way is to find the master that forced the living furnace upon you and you have that master to remove for you."

    "The fourth way is to be able to afford 1 billion high grade spirit stones to enter the Mo Bei''s Dream Trial."

    Xiao Muhan asked weakly, "So, is there a fifth method?"

    Little Princess nodded, "This one needs a miracle to happen and it requires a blessed prayer to the Great Beyond Goddess to help you."

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    "I am seriously screwed..."

    Ji Yuan grinned all of a sudden, "However there is a sixth option for me to save you and it is rtively easy."

    Xiao Muhan growled softly, "You got a bright idea?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "I can help you to kill that Old Witch Xi. Once she is dead, you will no longer be a living furnace."

    Xiao Muhan was now furious, "Then why don''t you kill her just now?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is because you are blocking me just now and preventing me from killing that Old Witch Xi. Well, I''ve got one month to find her before she returns to the Endless Celestial Fraternity."

    Xiao Muhan said miserably, "Then every day for one month, I have to pray very hard to Ji Yuan so that he will be able to aplish his mission of killing Old Witch Xi."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Well said!"

 Chapter 490 Little Princess (R18)

    Ji Yuan had suddenly grown very solemn now as he said, "Since Jingjing says she may need 5 days to meditate in this ce, I guess we can still afford to stay here for 5 days before we move on to the next cultivation wondend. 5 days may not be enough so I don''t mind that anyone of you will be choosing to stay here instead. As for me, I am going to the interior of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    As he said that, he was actually looking at the unconscious Yang Mi who had blocked a deadly blow for him earlier and he was guilty.

    He hoped that 5 days may be enough for Yang Mi to regain her consciousness.

    Then he said to the group, "I shall stay here for a little longer to check on Yang Mi. Good luck with your cultivations."

    Yu Jingjing shook her head, "I should be the one to stay behind to look after her, not you or Little Princess."

    But Ji Yuan shook his head and his look on Little Princess was suddenly intense, "I have something to ask Little Princess first and I don''t want to be disturbed."

    Everyone was startled for they had never seen Ji Yuan looking this intensely before.

    Little Princess was also startled and her mesmerizing smiles seemed to have vanished, "You want to ask me about that incident hundreds of years ago?"

    He wanted to ask me if I had ever turned him into my living furnace?

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded as he said slowly, "I happen to know of another way that can cause even a great saint to be a living furnace but it seems that you have conveniently forget to mention about it."

    Everyone was curious immediately and did not seem to be moving away.

    Little Princess asked nonchntly but this time she was not smiling anymore. Instead she was looking downward.

    Ji Yuan said with a soft sigh, "The methods that you have listed are methods that can be done unknowingly. But if a great saint is tortured knowingly and has suffered excessive injuries to his soul core then an evil dual cultivator or more together can still make him or her their living furnace."

    Little Princess did not deny this for she had beaten up Ji Yuan really badly for several months in the past. Even a Sword Saint like Ji Yuan was forced to dual cultivate with her.

    Little Princess raised her slender fingers before humming coldly, "Please leave everyone."

    Her tone was really strict.

    And Ji Yuan was also saying, "Little Princess, can you please setup a defense array here to nullify all the sounds?"

    Ling Feiyue who was annoyed at being driven off from their conversation, sarcastically said in her usual soft voice. "Hmph! He is so dirt poor that he has to ask a maiden to help him to setup a defense array!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and felt like he got a p from Ling Feiyue.

    This was not exactly wrong to say so, for he was dead poor since he did not have plenty of high grade spirit stones to setup any defense array. Moreover, he also did not have any cultivation items that can be used for any arrays in the first ce nor did he have any cultivation methods neither. How in the Celestial Realm are they expecting a sword cultivator to setup a workable array?

    As Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing began to follow Ling Feiyue on her way out, it seemed that they were all spotting a despised look at him.

    Even Xiao Muhan was shaking his head as he left the cave.

    Only Dream Mist did not look at him and she was the first one to have left quietly.

    When everyone had left, Little Princess began to setup the defense array and when she was done, she lowered her nce to ask Ji Yuan, "So what do you want to ask?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly chuckled, "My Little Princess, why are you looking so gloomy?"

    Little Princess began to turn away without losing her mesmerizing bearings while clenching onto her short ck skirt tightly, "You want to ask me about our dual cultivation in the past, am I right? And whether I have turned you into a living furnace?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "How do you know about the first part about the dual cultivation? And do I need to know about the second part?"

    Little Princess said quietly, "What if I tell you that I''ve never turn you into my living furnace, will you believe me?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had patted her shoulder gently and lowered his voice to say, "What happens in the past isn''t important anymore. I still have your memory stone and I know how you feel about me. We have a big misunderstands in the past. I was drunk..."

    He began to sigh softly at the past memories.

    Little Princess looked at him curiously, "Then why are we setting up an array for?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled when he saw her cute expressions, "I had taken five masculine profound pills that are enough tost me 5 months. And I had also taken one masculine profound pill on this level. I am thinking that since you are here, why don''t we practice the allowed dual cultivation art that erm... you had previously used on me?"

    Little Princess was astonished and she had finally realized why Ji Yuan had wanted her to use a defense array that could nullify sounds. "You are only putting on an act just now?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "You know that I am a rascal sometimes. If I don''t pretend to be stern to you, how can I get the chance to be alone with you?"

    Little Princess wasughing mesmerizing again and her slim body was swaying, "You''re such a badass rascal... so you want to use me to satisfy your lust?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Aren''t you my consort too?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly kissing Little Princess with great passion on her trembling lips.

    Little Princess tried to pull herself away from him and she was suddenly protesting shyly, "Ji Yuan. The dual cultivation art that we had practiced in the past is the orthodox version between a couple... but it is also downright dirty..."

    But Ji Yuan did not answer her and instead he was looking at her half-exposed neckline and was looking at her bosoms.

    She was looking suddenly very tense and especially when Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her slim waist to pull her into his close embrace. At this point, she did not protest anymore and she returned a passionate affection in return.

    Ji Yuan began to explore her tongue as they kissed, and soon his hands were moving downward onto the sides of her ck skirt.

    Little Princess was dressed more provocatively than the other maidens save for Yun Chi; there was only her undies below her skirt when Ji Yuan had moved his light and gentle fingers inside her forbidden valley to explore.

    There was a twitch on Little Princess as she knew that Ji Yuan was ying with her now and he was now exploring her lustful body but still, she hesitated to loosen the soul bound that was on her undies.

    But Ji Yuan was not one to give up; he also began to fondle and tease on her protruding chest until she began to loosen her soul bound that was on her ck low-cut upper bodice.

    Ji Yuan was not one who would give up on an advantage and a whileter, her naked white jade boobs were exposed to the cool air outside by him as he admired with lust in his eyes, "What a nice pair of breasts."

    "Ji Yuan, this is very lewd." Little Princess could see that Ji Yuan was now running his fingers on the front of her bosom now and she felt electrified by him as he pinched, fondle, grabbed and yed with her naked protruded boobs.

    She had wanted to stop him all of a sudden because she was not prepared for anything like this; Ji Yuan simply had too many maidens in his harem and she was fine to just follow him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    More so when Ji Yuan had suddenly lifted her ck skirt upward and he was exposing her ck undies for his feasting.

    Her ck undies were made of thin celestium silk and was very expensive.

    To her horror, Ji Yuan had suddenly ripped her ck undies to pieces and he was now exposing her lower body. "Little Princess, even if you do not loosen your belt, I can still admire your peerless beauty."

    And he was ying with her tender butt and in-between her coquettish and mesmerizing legs that were opened wide now.

    Ji Yuan had already loosened the belt that was on his robe and dropped his pants, teasing her. "My Little Princes, why don''t you loosen the soul bound to your little sister? Your little sister is now missing my little brother and she is thirsty."

    Little Princess gave a soft mesmerizing coquettish sound and she was beginning to have some fun now. She began to kneel down in front of Ji Yuan before looking up to smile at him, "You want to y with Little Princess'' little sister so soon? Why don''t I y with your little brother first?"

    With that, she began to put her mouth onto his little brother, slowly caressing him with her saliva and tickling of her tongue as though she was giving him a massage.

    Ji Yuan was greatlyforted and he began to pull and hold her head onto his little brother, forcing his little brother down her throat all of a sudden.

    Little Princess gasped softly with a couple of lewd moans as the little brother in her mouth moves in and out before ejacting hot steam of primeval yang essence inside. Save for some of the overflowing primeval yang essence, she swallowed every single drop inside.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan could see that Little Princess usually pale face was now flushing hotly. As he looked down, he saw that her below was leaking milky white juice.

    Little Princess moaned softly, "Big Brother...Ji Yuan... I am so wet below."

    Ji Yuan nodded and they were suddenly in a 69 position because Little Princess was still passionately kissing his little brother and Ji Yuan wanted to y his tongue to y with her little sister.

    So the two of them began to tear off the remainder of their clothing as they pressed and rubbed passionately against each other.

    Yang Min was disturbed by the sudden lewd sounds and she had opened her golden eyes which were small enough for her to peep at the scene where Ji Yuan and Little Princess were.

    She was relieved and not relieved at the same time.

    Relieved because she was not the one that was being yed upon. Not relieved because she was not doing with Ji Yuan and was ''forced'' to watch their performance.

    Who would have thought that the two of them would suddenly force upon this exotic scene in front of her golden eyes while she was lying down?"

    And right now, they were in the 69 positions.

    Yang Min could see what they were doing clearly and she was now trying very hard to hold her breath to remain undetected. However, both Ji Yuan and Little Princess had not noticed her even though their divine sense was sharp.

    It was because they had actually included Yang Min as part of the defense array and had thought that she would still be unconscious.

    And right now, Yang Min could see Little Princess between her white jaded legs and she was passionately caressing and cleaning Ji Yuan''s little brother with her mouth.

    And Ji Yuan had caught hold of Little Princess'' tender butt and he was ying with her little sister, causing mountain springs and nectar to flow on his face.

    The two of them wereughing softly and they were trying to turn to the superior position at the same time.

    Yang Min could clearly see Ji Yuan''s firm body and also, lower region very clearly and she was staring very hard...

    It was very lewd and extremely lewd to a chaste maiden like Yang Min who had never experienced the coption between man and woman before.

    In fact, she had never masturbated before or exposed to any lewd imageries.

    Her Holy Oracle Sect was an all-female celestial sect that emphasized greatly on chastity to the cultivator, chastity to the orthodox fraternity and chastity to the Holy Oracle Sect.

    All of a sudden Yang Min was twitching in her lower body as she reached climax on her own. Her orgasms were so much that she was beginning to think that her entire skirt and not just undies were all wet.

    That was her very first orgasm...

    But still, she continued to keep silence because this was not the end yet.

    Actually Xiang Li and Anyang were also watching and they were also very wet but they did not dare to make a single sound because they had set themselves a rule to see and hear nothing.

    Xiang Li said to Anyang secretly: Remember! We mustn''t, mustn''t allow Big Brother to know that we are watching him. Only with Qianfeng, we are allowed to watch them openly. Heehee.

    Anyang asked: Why?

    Xiang Li giggled: She is kind to animals.

    Anyang wanted to faint: We are not animals...

    Ji Yuan was now changing positions as he grabbed Little Princess snow white body that was now covering with her fragrant sweat, "Little Princess, you have finally released your soul bound below and your little sister is opened now. Haha..."

    Little Princess was trembling lightly now and she was flustered from top to bottom. She had never expected that Ji Yuan would be so powerful after consuming the masculine profound pills.

    So she could only protest shyly and softly, "Do you know that in the past, I''ve fed you with the most powerful profound tonics from the Evil Cultivation Pce? You really cost me a lot... as upkeep... many of the profound tonics are so rare and precious... that you can''t even buy them... anymore... that is why your little brother... is so strong now..."

    All of a sudden Little Princess was making loud lusty involuntary moans because Ji Yuan had suddenly poked his two fingers into her little sister and was simting her, causing her to twitch uncontrobly and a fan of mountain springs were sprayed out. "Ji... Yuan, no..."

    Ji Yuan answered casually as he squeezed hard her two breasts before sucking with his wet mouth on her hardened nipples. "Other than Saintess Yuluo, I didn''t touch any maidens for a long time..."

    Little Princessughed coquettishly, "Lucky you have only a short stint with her...and...this didn''t affect you too much..."

    "Haha..." Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Do you mind if you can tell me how much that you had spent?"

    Little Princessughed shyly, "It... is a secret. A poor cultivator like you... cannot afford even in 1000 lifetimes."

    Ji Yuan muttered softly, "Darn..."

    But he was grinning as he caught hold of Little Princess'' slender waist, "I want to ride you in the down position."

    Little Princess chuckled softly, "I don''t want... that dog position. You will kill me."

    Ji Yuan had already put her crawling under him; he was already salivating and looking at her dripping valley while pulling down the long hair on the back of her head to ride her, "What do you mean that I will kill you? I will never hurt you..."

    "Cos, you are always unkind to animals and kill ever single one of them... heehee... even Qianfeng''s two spirit pets don''t like you." Little Princess teased.

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Is this the time for suchme joke?

    No wait, it is a little true...

    But Ji Yuan had no time to think of this. It was because he wanted to attack her body now with his little brother and he could not wait to enter into her little sister.

    And he did.

    There were a lot of trembles and shakes between them,sting hundreds of thrusts before Little Princess could not help sobbing aloud, "I...am..ing..."

    But Ji Yuan did not stop.

    And they continued for thousands of thrusts more until an exhausted Little Princess managed to ovee Ji Yuan by pinning him onto the ground.

    By then Little Princess'' slender body was all covered with her fragrant sweat and just now she must have climaxed at least five times while Ji Yuan hade seven times.

    Little Princess was trembling nonstop as she caught hold of Ji Yuan''s little brother, "Now it''s my time to ride you. I want to try the Lotus Stance..."

    Ji Yuan could only plead exhaustingly, "Oh no! We''re not at the Evil Cultivation Pce anymore..."

    But Little Princessughed with a bewitching gaze upon Ji Yuan, "You have forced me to make a pond...and... I want to shower with your sticky milky cream."

    Ji Yuan replied tenderly, "Before you do that. I will like to tell you that I''ve truly love you. I''ve been waiting for an excuse for us to be a alone but you just won''t give me the chance. Today, I''ve finally caught you alone. Having that said, can you show me a little mercy?"

    Little Princess looked away tenderly as well, "Your Little Princess dares not be alone with you lest everyone says that I am bewitching you. Moreover, I should be dead if not for Sister Jiajia..."

    Yang Min who was watching them with many soundless gasps were forced to straighten her pointy bosom and she was also convulsing nonstop below. She had climaxed at least six times and the entire floor was wet with her maiden''s foam...

    She was thinking: Why did they have to do something like this? Are they the real evil dual cultivators? Why is that I can''t pull my eyes from watching them. Is Ji Yuan going to pick me after his show with that maiden is over...

 Chapter 491 Three Awkward Cultivators

    When Ji Yuan and Little Princess had finished their coption acts, they fell down exhaustedly together on the ground and was embracing each other nakedly.

    Little Princess had turned to look with great affection at Ji Yuan as she said sentimentally, "My lord. Do you really mean what you''ve said just now? Or a man''s words are always just tofort a maiden?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly before he solemnly answered, "You are my first maiden. Naturally I can''t forget you easily. You are like the stain in my Great Dao in the past but no longer now. You are always princess this and that. So I am freaking irritated by you."

    Little Princess chuckled with her mesmerizing eyes falling upon him, "But I am much humble now."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "In fact, I am a little unused to it still. Haha¡­"

    He was thinking: Actually, Little Princess is really a stunning maiden and she could express many affectionate emotions just by her looks alone. In the eyes of many, she is really too bewitching and can fill men with lusts¡­

    Little Princess cuddled to Ji Yuan as she mused softly, "In the past, you were my dual cultivation toy. If you try to run, I would be very upset and I would break your golden body. When you finally escaped from me and was with Saintess Yuluo, I hate you so much that I tried to sow the divide that was with the two of you. I''ve also did a lot of unforgivable things to you on the sly because I can''t stand Sword Saint Ji Yuan with another maiden. Do you know that after you have be the Great Poet Ji Yuan, you have so many fangirls? I am an evil cultivator and I''ve killed many people."

    "Lingyun¡­" Ji Yuan gently called her name. Little Princess name was Yin Lingyun. "Didn''t I tell you already that the past is the past?"

    Little Princess nodded slowly before she gave him a wry look, "Everything is perfect in you except for two things."

    Ji Yuan asked her curiously. "What is it?"

    Little Princess giggled, "First imperfection is that you are a poor cultivator without any cultivation resources."

    Ji Yuan began to growl¡­

    Little Princess began to smile gently, "Second imperfection is your beard but since you no beard now, this second imperfection is no longer valid. I''ve actually wanted to shave off your beard when we had first met but I had restrained because that was the highest insult on a male cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to rub his chin and had disyed an ugly look, "Well Jiajia likes my beard."

    Little Princess rolled her lovely golden eyes, "Do you really think so?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a firm look, "She hung my bearded portrait and looked at it day in and night out when she was Xia Jiaqing. That''s how much she liked my bearded look. And I am so manly with a beard. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden Yang Mi had chuckled at where she was lying and her small chuckle had alerted Ji Yuan and Little Princess to her.

    At first Yang Mi had managed to deceive them by keeping quiet but when Ji Yuan had suddenly said how manly he was, she just could not let go of a little chuckle.

    This was fatal and she had alerted them.

    Moreover she could not move now and what if they saw what was below her waist?

    Ji Yuan and Little Princess panicky began to put on whatever clothing that they could grab before speeding to Yang Mi in a sh as they were concerned about her injuries.

    But when they saw the wet foam that was on the cave floor and on Yang Mi''s skirt, all three of them suddenly had a most awkward silence.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan and Little Princess were looking awkwardly at each other for they knew that Yang Mi had seen everything. And they knew that they had actually gone too wild just now.

    Yang Mi was also looking away shyly because the two of them had simted the lower half of her body even though she still could not move.

    After a long silence, Ji Yuan finally said awkwardly. "I have happened toe by to check on Maiden Yang Mi''s injuries."

    Little Princessughed shyly, "Same here."

    They had expected Yang Mi to join them in their lying game but instead she said gently, "There is still a lot on your bodies. Shouldn''t you use your profound force to disperse of your strains first before putting on some clothes?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before heughed awkwardly. "True. True."

    Then Yang Mi lowered her nce, "You have seen my naked body once and I''ve also seen yours once. Now we are fair."

    She turned to Little Princess with a gentle smile, "Big Sister Saintess, I didn''t know that you have such a past. About my grand matriarch, are you telling me the truth?"

    Little Princess chuckled softly as she held Yang Mi''s arm, "Little Sister, I had spied upon them and I know that they are trying to turn you into their living furnace. But you are safe now and no one will bully you anymore."

    Yang Mi asked quietly, "My grand matriarch. Is she alright?"

    She had seen Ji Yuan chasing her earlier.

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "She has escaped. I was not able to kill her just now."

    Yang Mi sighed softly, "In one month''s time, my grand matriarch will be returning to the Holy Oracle Sect once more and we are forbidden to speak of our experiences and knowledge in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, be it spoken or written. If my grand matriarch is really an evil dual cultivator, all my prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters will be defiled by her."

    Ji Yuan thumped his fist onto his chest all of a sudden, "Maiden Yang Mi, don''t worry. I will surely kill that Old Witch Xi."

    Yang Mi respectfully said, "Then I shall thank Great Hero Ji Yuan on behalf of all my prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters in the Holy Oracle Sect!"

    Ji Yuan replied awkwardly, "No problem at all."

    He was actually thinking: the final trial is so big. How the heck will I know where she goes?

    Little Princess winked at Ji Yuan as she put on a new blouse and a skirt before she had suddenly walked away; she had noticed that he was literally staring at Yang Mi and he was like a hungry wolf.

    A startled Ji Yuan asked her, "Little Princess, where are you going?"

    Little Princessughed casually, "You''ve only notice me after I have changed to a clean clothing. It looks like I am going to have a new sister very soon. Good luck with your flirtings. I''m going to look for Sister Ling Feiyue to cool her down. She must be so upset with you earlier."

    When she was at the almost gone, Ji Yuan''s voice could be heard muttering behind. "She¡­ didn''t even wear any undies¡­"

    This caused Little Princess to be flustered immediately and caused her to sped off even quickier.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw that Little Princess was gone but he continued his mutterings, "I don''t know why she is so shy for? It not like anyone can hear me us in this soundless defensive array¡­"

 Chapter 492 Yang Mi (R18)

    Yang Mi had suddenly got up; although she was struggling to stand straight and was still looking pale, there was apparent no more danger to her or to her inner cultivation core.

    Ji Yuan was startled by her and he quickly held her slim waist to support her, "You''ve just recovered and should rest a little bit more."

    But Yang Mi replied softly as she leaned weakly against him, "I should be fine now. I am a golden celestial after all. Once I am awakened, my life essences will regenerate in a much faster pace now. Thank you for your concern. I am a bit weak for my first step but I''ve already more or less fine now."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "It is not a problem at all."

    His voice was a little soft because he could still vividly remember Yang Mi''s naked look earlier and also because he was looking at the ground below her that was wet. It was a lie to say that he did not desire her or else he would not be looking at her.

    This caused him to wonder: She is so wet?

    All of a sudden he saw that Yang Mi was looking tenderly at him and she is saying, "If I can''t return to my Holy Oracle Sect, may Ie with you?"

    Then she quickly added, "I¡­ I think Great Hero Ji Yuan is a dragon among men. If I can be just your maid, that will also dden my heart."

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to reject her, Yang Mi was suddenly reciting softly and her gentle voice was like a breeze.

    "There is a flower bud in the desert valley¡­"

    "That is waiting for the right traveler to bloom¡­"

    "Waiting for the rain toe refresh the bud¡­"

    "Do you have the heart to cut its bud before you seen the blooming flower?"

    "What if the flower is only blooming for you?"

    "Do you still have the heart to cut its bud down before it can bloom?"

    And after reciting, she was looking at Ji Yuan with a despaired heart.

    Ji Yuan was flustered immediately¡­

    It was because he was a poet as well and he knew that she was telling him that she was the flower bud that was waiting for him to bloom. To be more urate, she was telling him to have her chastity bud of her forbidden valley and to make rain for her.

    He actually did not know that Yang Mi would actually be such an aplished poet.

    But he casuallyughed it off, "I may actually be a lizard among men. Also, I have many consorts and maidens that are with me. As you can see, I have also lost my beard too¡­"

    Yang Mi lowered her tearful nces when she had heard Ji Yuan as she interrupted, "My father the White Sword Monarch also have more than thirty in his harem. It is not unusual for a mighty lord to have many consorts and concubines because it is so hard for the high level cultivators to have an heir. The higher the cultivation, the harder it is for them to conceive¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly. But he was actually thinking: He calls himself the White Sword Monarch? Is his sword a famous one? Or is he a sword saint?

    Yang Mi continued slowly, "I was just one of the few exceptional female prot¨¦g¨¦s that had been sent to the Holy Oracle Sect due to the cultivation influence of my original celestial n and reputation of my father.

    When she had exined to this point, Ji Yuan had a sudden realization why she was telling him this; she is actually from a rich celestial n and no wonder the nobleness of her character would not be hidden.

    "Because you have saved me, my father the White Sword Monarch will also be sure to reward you handsomely." Yang Mi firmly said. "And if you take me, the betrothal gift will also not be light."

    Ji Yuan shook his head lightly: Big mistake. Although he was a dirt poor cultivator but he was not after any cultivation riches. He already had two saint-step divine swords so there was nothing that he would actually want now. If he had so many desires then he would have forced Xiang Li to make a wish for him.

    Yang Mi stopped briefly to look at him before she continued, "The White Sword Celestial n is the top celestial n in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. My father the White Sword Monarch also has a saint-step divine sword that he has inherited for generations. Not only is he a sword saint but he also has 12 grand elders who are all sword saints as well¡­"

    Ji Yuan was secretlyughing at the first part but when he had heard the second part, he was suddenly dumbfounded: Just how many sword saints does her parent celestial n have?! Did he just offend a powerful Sword Saint n?

    He was beginning to gulp now¡­

    Then Yang Mi was suddenly looking up at him with teary eyes and she had suddenly twisted her waist to drop her robe and skirt, leaving only her wet undies. She did not have her apron on because there was a bandage on her upper body.

    Once again, Ji Yuan began to recall her naked figure vividly. Only this time, he was looking at her at point-nk.

    She said bitterly and was afraid of being rejected, "But I know Great Hero Ji Yuan will not care for all these because you are who you are. Also my Sister Jingjing is also going to be with you. She may be bullied by your other consorts and I can''t be with her. But this also won''t be the reason why you will be rejecting me."

    "Therefore, I can only offer myself unconditionally to you for saving my life or I will die in front of you."

    Ji Yuan was about to reject her when he had heard the first part but he had heard the second part, he was actually stunned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was actually screaming in Ji Yuan''s soul sea to ask him to ept her but he was so engrossed in looking at her that he could not hear Xiang Li till now: Big Brother? You are not epting her? Do you want her to die in front of you?

    Ji Yuan muttered: Many of my fangirls in the past have used this same very trick, including Shangguan Yan.

    Xiang Li giggled: Oh?

    Ji Yuan said weakly to Xiang Li: Also, she has just tried every single trick in her book to seduce me. You didn''t notice it? She has used at least five tricks just to get me to drop my guard but I am too big brain to fall into it.<sub> </sub>

    Anyang was startled as well: Oh really?!

    Dream Mist had of course heard Ji Yuan as well and she was silently giving him credit: He isn''t a fool that is always thinking with his lower body.

    Yang Mi could see that Ji Yuan remained unmoved and she was actually beginning to lose hope. In terms of beauty, she could also be considered as one of the peerless beauties too. In fact, she was a ranked beauty in the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

    But she knew that a man like Ji Yuan had nock of great beauties that were constantly by his side and she had already seen several of them.

    Ji Yuan was staring at Yang Mi''s t waist and well-proportioned legs when she had suddenly tiptoed to kiss him on his lips.

    "My lord Ji Yuan, are you despising Yang Mi because you think of me as a harlot?"

    "My lord Ji Yuan, then why are you rejecting my advances? You don''t like me?"

    "My lord Ji Yuan, then what is the reason?"

    Ji Yuan answered the same for all her questions, "No, no, no..."

    Finally Ji Yuan was forced to sigh heavily and he was admitting, "I don''t have a spare profound item to bring you back to my Deste Celestial Fraternity. And I don''t wish to hurt you."

    Yang Mi gasped softly as she smiled alluring and her smiles were like the sunshine, "This is the reason? I happen to have one."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, this immediately opened his floodgate of passions...

    She was also cuddling Ji Yuan to fondle her inviting and firm boobs that was apanied by her petite red tender nipples.

    And her weak hands had undo Ji Yuan''s robe and she was looking below.

    She had suddenly giving a coquettish soft squeak when she saw his hardened little brother and just as she was about to kneel down, Ji Yuan had suddenly caught hold of her as he said tenderly. "You are recovering from your injuries now. We should go gentle."

    And Ji Yuan had suddenly turned her around to lean against the wall. He began to fondle her small and firm bosom as he admired her long jade back.

    Then his eyes were on her wet transparent panties which he slowly slid down to reveal her dripping wet and forbidden valley. Inside was her flower bud...

    Ji Yuan was gasping as he had finally managed to feast his eyes upon.

    He slowly moved to fondle her boobs down to her firm butt and he saw that she was really very wet.

    Anyang was asking in disbelief: Master I thought that you say that this is all a trick?

    But Ji Yuan hadpletely ignored Anyang while Xiang Li was giggling: This should be the way!

    Ji Yuan eyes began to admire and to take note of the wet valley slowly before he started to slowly part her jade white legs to reveal a small coquettish opening.

    And Yang Mi was already on fire and her golden eyes had grown misty from lust. She was already muttering, "My lord Ji Yuan, my lord Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan was feeling through her dedicate body which was also falling into inexplicable pleasure. He pulled her right fingers to his little brother to handle as he said, "Shake it. This is my little brother and he is going to enter your little sister bud now."

    Yang Mi shook his little brother for a while before she grasped softly, "My lord Ji Yuan, I really can''t stand this anymore. May you please don''t torture me anymore and push your little brother into my bud. I¡­ really want you now."

    Ji Yuan saw that she had an insufferable heat now and her viscous liquid was just leaking now down from her beautiful slender thighs to the ground.

    So he began to push his little brother into her while they were in a standing position.

    Yang Mi was already simted to the point of unspeakable moaning and there was a lot of fluid that was rushing out now even though Ji Yuan was not even 4/5 inside.

    Ji Yuan knew that she was already experiencing inexplicit pain and pleasure so he told her gently, "This is going to hurt for the first time."

    There was a "squeak" sound as Ji Yuan was halfway inside.

    A fresh burst of brand new pleasure began to make Yang Mi shudder nonstop before Ji Yuan had pushed his little brother inside. She was really tight inside.

    Ji Yuan said to her, "I am going to thrust inside you for more than twenty times, in and out. Only then can I clean the blood inside your bud. It is going to be painful in the very beginning but after that, you will feel that you are released."

    Yang Mi almost fainted at the thought of going through it 20 times when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had caught hold of her tight butt to separate her two buttocks to the sides, "Maybe I need 40 times. You are just too small and tight."

    Then he had started thrusting into her quivering little bud.

    Yang Mi had actually fainted in the middle of the thrusting and it was not even close to the 10th thrusting. It was because she was only putting on her strong front to seduce Ji Yuan and secondly, she really got no experiences in coption. Moreover her body was still weak and she already got burn up by what she had seen earlier. Also, she could finally feel Ji Yuan''s on her and she was really excited.

    But of course, Ji Yuan had not realized this as he was focused on his sacred mission to open her beautiful bud.

 Chapter 493 Ji Yuan, Were Over!

    Ji Yuan really could not believe his eyes and he was staring in disbelief when Yang Mi had fainted in front of him and she was naked.

    There were so many first time that she hadmitted unwittingly that he was exasperated that such a day would actually happen to him.

    Firstly, she had fainted halfway when he was opening her bud for the very first time. And she was the one that had recited her poem to him and told him that she would "bloom". Instead of "bloom", she had "bombed" herself to the ground.

    Secondly, she was the one that was trying to seduce him into temptation. But he had never heard of a temptress that had actually fainted barely before they had even started.

    Just as Ji Yuan was sighing and he was muttering to himself, "I should at least finish my manly job with her. I''ve barely even started¡­

    Right now, he really did not know whether tough or cry.

    Just as Ji Yuan was pushing the unconscious Yang Mi to lean against the wall so that he could finish his manly job, he was suddenly interrupted by a loud gasp at the entrance of the cave.

    It was Yu Jingjing and she was shocked to see Ji Yuan trying to copte forcefully with Yang Mi. "Ji Yuan! What are you trying to do?! Of all the maidens, do you have to touch her? You can''t afford the price of touching her!"

    When Ji Yuan saw Yu Jingjing, he was so startled that he was stammering to her. "Jingjing, it is you? What are you doing here?"

    Yu Jingjing was upset, "You mean I shouldn''t be here?"

    Earlier, she had retreated back to her own meditating cave for her cultivation insights. However when she thought that her best friend Yang Mi must be suffering right now, it pained her so much that she had decided that she would camp by her side instead of her own cultivation.

    Even though she may be a Holy Oracle Priestess but she had never treated Yang Mi as a maid. Moreover Yang Mi had a most powerful background in the Endless Celestial Fraternity for her father was the White Sword Monarch of the White Sword Celestial n which was also the most powerful celestial n in her fraternity.

    But right now, she was witnessing something horrible and even terrible to behold.

    Ji Yuan had forcefully stripped Yang Mi of all her clothing and she could see that even her soul bound on her sacred areas had also been forcefully ripped open by Ji Yuan.

    Worse, Ji Yuan was even shing his little brother into her innocent eyes now...

    Yu Jingjing was really disappointed in Ji Yuan now: So this is why he had asked for a sound barrier defense array to be setup so that he could fulfill his beastly acts?

    She said hatefully, "Ji Yuan, you are a great saint but you are now forcing yourself upon a young saintess. To think that we are the best of friends. I can even let you vite me but you must never touch her. I can promise you that even if you have ten lives, it is not enough."

    When Ji Yuan saw Yu Jingjing, he had decided to add a third first for Yang Mi and that was she was now causing others to misunderstood to think of him as a flower thief¡­

    Yu Jingjing said coldly as she stepped forward hastily, "White Sword Monarch is extremely ancient. Some say he is also the patriarch of the White Sword Celestial n. There was once a powerful dark celestial n that had dared to challenge White Sword City and it was suddenly destroyed by White Sword Monarch himself. There is a rumor that he is actually an immortal and not a celestial."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Don''t you think the stories about this White Sword Monarch is getting more and more exaggerated?"

    He was thinking: At most if the rumor is true then I shall stay shamelessly next to my Qianfeng and Yun Chi for protection since they are also immortals.

    Yu Jingjing rebuked him fiercely, "You may be very strong but no one is able to fight against so many powerful cultivators. And I can promise you that even if the rumor isn''t true, there is no way that you can defeat all 12 of the grand elders for they are all sword saints and saintesses. Moreover, there are still the 36 Sword Lords who are all sword saints themselves."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "You are not joking with me right?"

    It was as though he had suddenly offended a super power influence in the Celestial Realm.<sub> </sub>

    Yu Jingjing had suddenly attacked Ji Yuan and had forced him to drop Yang Mi into her arms. She was sobbing uncontrobly, "Ji Yuan, you are the son of the beast!"

    Ji Yuan who had purposely surrendered the naked Yang Mi to her, tried to exin. "Look Jingjing, listen to me please. This isn''t what you are seeing. You can eat the wrong food but you don''t say the wrong words¡­"

    Yu Jingjing had taken out her extra robe and had gently covered Yang Mi with it before she stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, are you shameless? You dare to be naked in front of me and you have even vited Yang Mi in front of my eyes."

    Ji Yuan quickly put on his robe after Yu Jingjing had reminded him of his nakedness and he was still panicky exining, "Jingjing, you should know me very well by now, right?"

    Yu Jingjing had suddenly taken out the heaven-step divine zither that he had given her and she had raised it high above her.

    "By the Great God Pangu of the Three Known Realms and the Great Beyond Goddess of the Six Divine Realms, I am now severing my ties with Ji Yuan!"

    With that she had thrown the heaven-step divine zither with all her profound energies and had smashed it in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock, "My 40mil high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Yu Jingjing cried as she spit her golden blood on the fallen heaven-step divine zither, "As for today onward, Ji Yuan and I are over. We will have nothing to do with each other now. To think that I have always have aplete faith in you but today, you''ve greatly disappointed me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Our rtionship is over even before we have begun?

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Look. Let me get Little Princess and she can exin to you. Alright?"

    Yu Jingjing said coldly as she grabbed Yang Mi to her embrace, "No need. We are over."

    Just as she was about to leave, Yang Mi was suddenly giggling softly like a young maiden. "My lord Ji Yuan, you are done? I''m sorry that I''ve passed out. This is¡­ so awkward¡­"

    But all of a sudden Yang Mi was startled for she was suddenly holding onto a pair of soft bosoms and she gave a startled jump as she flew into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    ? Yang Mi finally realized that it was Yu Jingjing who was carrying her and she was stammering awkwardly, "Sister Jingjing, what are you doing here?"

    When Yu Jingjing saw that Yang Mi had jumped into Ji Yuan''s arm, she immediately knew that she had misunderstood Ji Yuan.

    So she whimpered softly, "It is all a misunderstanding just now. About our blood oaths¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a chuckle, "Luckily you are not a good oath maker and have forgotten to mention never again be with me. Although we can break off but we can still get back together. Muhaha¡­"

    Yu Jingjing had a soft sign of relief before she turned to look coldly at Yang Mi, "Can you exin to me why the two of you are naked and are in each other embrace?"

    Both Ji Yuan and Yang Mi were suddenly looking away awkwardly¡­

 Chapter 494 Threesome (R18)

    When Yu Jingjing was suddenly questioning Ji Yuan and Yang Mi who were both wearing a single piece of flimsy robe, both Ji Yuan and Yang Mi were awkward immediately.

    The lust that was in Yang Mi had not been fully subsidized yet and she was panting heaviler than usual. But she dared not look into Yu Jingjing or Ji Yuan. It was because she was still thinking of the unspeakable lust that had just happened between Ji Yuan and her.

    Ji Yuan was also feeling quite lusty because he had barely started and especially so when he was now holding onto the naked Yang Mi in his arms.

    Yu Jingjing had suddenly discovered that she had stumbled into a forbidden ground between Ji Yuan and Yang Mi. She was actually the intruder¡­

    She should be the one that is supposed to leave¡­

    It was obvious to her that both Ji Yuan and Yang Mi were reluctant to leave and they had nned to carry over their game of love once she had left.

    Even Xiang Li was aching as she sighed aloud to Anyang: Big Brother has not even filled his yang essence into Yang Mi yet and this is over. Wuwuwu¡­

    Anyang looked equally pained and she was muttering: Well, at least we got Little Princess just now¡­

    Just as Yu Jingjing was about to turn around, Yang Mi had hopped next to Yu Jingjing as she giggled gently, "Sister Jingjing, are you upset with your Yang Mi? Wu~wu."

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "Of course not. Why should I be upset with you?"

    "That is because Sister Jingjing you have known Ji Yuan longer than me but we¡­ we¡­" Yang Mi began to look down shyly and was unable to continue.

    Yu Jingjing actually had such a sour feeling after learning that Yang Mi was actually fine. She had been so worried for her.

    Yang Mi was suddenly tagging at Yu Jingjing''s belt and robe but there was a powerful soul bound that had bound Yu Jingjing''s clothing together.

    But Yang Mi was a maiden and she knew the weakness of Yu Jingjing''s dressing so she had suddenly fluttered it up for Ji Yuan to look into between her jaded legs.

    Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes saw that Yu Jingjing was wearing a pink undies today and he was aroused.

    Yu Jingjing was startled by Yang Mi, "Sister Yang Mi, what are you doing?!"

    Yang Mi who had regained her bubbly countenance began to protest coyly, "Why don''t we both lose ourselves to Ji Yuan tonight? Then there will be no first orst. Why don''t we serve Ji Yuan together?"

    Ji Yuan was staring at how bold Yang Mi was. Even he did not dare to suggest something as ridiculous as this.

    But in terms of boldest, it seemed that he hadpletely lost to this Maiden Yang Mi who looked weak and she would faint anytime.

    Yu Jingjing did not protest for she was looking at Ji Yuan and she was very much afraid.

    All of a sudden Yang Mi had loosened Yu Jingjing''s silk belt and she was giggling yfully and even Ji Yuan was aroused just by looking at what was happening.

    This means that Yu Jingjing was actually willing.

    Ji Yuan said suddenly, "Both of you are my future consorts. As my future consorts, is it wrong for us to be together."

    Yang Mi was gasping and she was rejoicing now; that means that Ji Yuan had epted her.

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Yu Jingjing was teary for she had always wanted to be with Ji Yuan and she had been waiting for him to confirm her into his harem.

    She did not care for her Holy Oracle Priestess position; she just wanted to be with the man that she loved.

    And she had jumped into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    Ji Yuan happily gathered Yu Jingjing into his fold and he was soon slipping her robe off her shoulders to admire her peerless beauty. Soon he was admiring at the pink apron that was covering her bosoms.

    Yang Mi started to remove her robe now and at the same time she was untying theces that was on Yu Jingjing''s jaded back. When these softces fell, the pink apron that hold onto Yu Jingjing''s bosom had also fall to reveal Yu Jingjing''s near perfect bosoms; not too big or small but extremely firm.

    Ji Yuan was now hugging onto Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi now; his fingers were upon their bared bosoms and he was fingering their pointed tits, arousing them and causing indescribable pleasure to surface and their wet valleys were spinning silver threads in all directions.

    Yu Jingjing was feeling especially flustered when she was now looking at Ji Yuan exposed body and that even her Sister Yang Mi was naked in front of her. This was after all, her very first time and she did not expect that she would be sharing a husband with her sister.

    She began to wonder if Feng Minyue had been taken by Ji Yuan? Feng Minyue was her best friend in Ji Yuan''s group and she was thinking of inviting her to do a foursome together. Feng Minyue, Yang Min and her will share Ji Yuan for a night of passions.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan knew that Yu Jingjing was shy and this was her first time so he slowly undid her skirt to let it fall onto the ground, leaving only her pink undies intact.

    Yang Mi took a look at Yu Jingjing''s extremely wet pink undies and giggled, "Sister Jingjing, you are so wet now."

    Yu Jingjing protested weakly, "That is because he is groping my bosoms now¡­"

    This was the truth and she had no idea how sensitive that she had been and she found that she was secreting her juices onto her pink undies.

    Yang Mi was holding onto Ji Yuan''s firm little brother while pointing at her secret valley which was dripping nectar. She was flustered and her voice was soft, "I just can''t stop my dripping as well¡­"

    When Yu Jingjing saw that Yang Mi was holding onto Ji Yuan''s little brother, she could not resist cupping her fingers over it and she was suddenly ying with it with Yang Mi.

    The two of them were suddenly kneeling together and they were now passionately exploring with their tongues and mouths.

    Ji Yuan knew that these two sisters were now slowly exploring his little brother and he was not in a hurry to bang them.

    Gently, he pulled down Yu Jingjing''s soaking wet pink undies down and he was admiring her secret valley.

    Yu Jingjing was greatly flustered and she knew that Ji Yuan was secretly looking down at her. She suddenly saw that there was a milky white stuff dripping down from her secluded valley and was greatly embarrassed.

    But her attention had quickly returned to Ji Yuan''s little brother because Yang Mi was now attempting to be the solo owner and she could not allow this to happen. So the two of them were deliciously trying to stroke Ji Yuan''s lust.

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I can''t bear the attacks of the two of you anymore."

    Yu Jingjing was suddenly looking up at him and she was giggling silly, "This is so exciting and thrilling. I''ve never known that this will be so fun."

    Yang Mi was nodding too and she was pleading with Ji Yuan, "My lord, please enter me. I am so itchy and I can''t stand it anymore. She was flustered and she looked a little dizzy.

    p Even Yu Jingjing was looking like a swan; it seemed that they did not know how to start and were already very wet.</anda>

    Ji Yuan could not believe that these two maidens would be so inexperienced and he was scratching his head weakly: It seems that I still have many things to teach them. So he decided they can start from the beginning and go immediately to business.

    These two maidens were now lusty but were also lost at the same time.

    So Ji Yuan turned Yang Mi around and he began to thrust her from behind.

    He also turned Yu Jingjing around as well and he was thrusting her next.

    Soon he was thrusting them turn by turn as they let go of their lustful moans.

    The stimtion was too much for them and they were spraying their ying essence at Ji Yuan but still he could not stop.

    Yu Jingjing was screaming, "Ji Yuan... please stop... help... I aming... reallying... ahhh..."

    Even Yang Mei was moaning weakly, "No my lord... I aming... not again... I havee so many times already... I am dead... ahhhhhhh...."

    Ji Yuan know that this was the beginning of their climaxes.

    After a hundred thrust, he began to pour his yang essence into Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing at almost the same time for he was taking turns to thrust into them.

    50 thrust each was their absolute limit!

    Ji Yuan could see the blood of their chastity seeping down onto their thighs as they ttened at almost the same time, exhausted with deep pleasure.

    Even though they were both saintesses, with Yu Jingjing a realm higher than Yang Mi but the two of them were just too weak as Ji Yuan shook his head in disapproval.

    They were twitched and their little sisters were now twisting involuntarily as Ji Yuan''s yang essence flowed out with their yin essence.

    But on their faces, they were all smiling because they were all taken by Ji Yuan and they would be in his harem together.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly: They are golden saintesses and they would be up in no time. But for now, I must let them rest for a little while.

 Chapter 495 Ji Yuan New Skirt Rule (R18)

    When Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had awakened, they were both looking at Ji Yuan and there was happiness on their countenances.

    They saw that Ji Yuan had not left the ce and he was in fact, silently guarding them all this while.

    When Ji Yuan saw that they were both awakened, he smiled and said to them. "Now that the two of you are awaken, I should go now. You should continue on your meditation."

    Yu Jingjing still had her flushness from yesterday as she quickly asked, "Ji Yuan where are you going?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "I am going to find Mo Bei and to inform him that we are setting off in another 5 days. He seems to be missing. And I need to look for Maiden Qin Shuang too."

    Yu Jingjing nodded looked a little unhappy, "Why do you want to look for another maiden so soon?"

    "That''s right." Yang Mi chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan growled as he said gravely, "I think the two of you really have a dirty mind. I am looking for her because I suspect that Old Witch Xi had turned her into a living furnace. There is a possibility that Old Witch Xi will look for her. Or Mo Bei has already been turned into a living furnace as well."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Min were suddenly ashamed.

    Yang Min looked up to him to ask suddenly, "Please allow us to go with you."

    Yu Jingjing nodded, "Yes. Please allow us to go with you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I don''t think there is a need and it is quite dark now."

    As Ji Yuan moved away, he had suddenly noticed that they were also following him and they were giggling.

    It was because they could still vividly remember each other''s nakedness yesterday.

    Ji Yuan was beginning to feel a little ufortable for they were too sticky.

    Yang Min suddenly asked him, "My lord, what must we do to please you more?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly looked at them with an evil grin, "Since you are both my consorts, you should learn to follow the customs of my Deste Celestial Fraternity. That means, strictly no soul bound on your undies and when I visit your secluded valley, you must also allow me to visit anytime."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi immediately acknowledged this new rule, much to Ji Yuan great delight.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea: Big Brother, is there such a rule?

    Anyang weakly said: He is lying for sure.

    Having Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi to ept this new rule of his, Ji Yuan was delighted as they sped off together. This time, he did not stop them from following him any longer.

    It did not take them too long to locate Mo Bei.

    Or rather, they had found Mo Bei and Qin Shuang embracing together and they were naked.

    Ji Yuan simply could not believe his eyes and he saw that Mo Bei and Qin Shuang were doing the dragon and phoenix stance which were extremely difficult. Moreover it seemed to him that they were blissfully doing it together.

    And of course, they had peeped.

    Ji Yuan began to look weakly at Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi while thinking: Howe my two "living furnace" is so weak?!

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were all flustered up as they whispered, "Don''t look¡­"

    While Ji Yuan was cursing them for being weak, he could not resist putting his hands into their skirts and soon he had felt their undies and he began to rub them.

    It really did not take them very long to be very wet and Ji Yuan could feel the wetness of their undies.

    Then he slid their undies aside and was astonished that he could actually move their undies. This means that they were not using any soul bound on their undies...

    Could it be that their forbidden valleys were also visitable for his fingers?

    He decided to put it to the test.

    True enough, he soon found both sides of his two fingers thrusting into their wet forbidden valleys and soon he was ying with their little sisters.

    He began to stroke them inside and he could feel their love juices were being stimted from within and they were now very wet, spurting their nectar uncontrobly.<sub> </sub>

    Yang Mi coquettishly gasped and her flustered expression was causing her raindrops to flow down from her thigh and to her foot. She was muttering, "Lord Ji Yuan, look. I am flowing a lot."

    Yu Jingjing was lustful but shy, her beautiful expressions were on Ji Yuan and she was squeaking softly, "I havee¡­ ahhhh¡­."

    Ji Yuan thought: Are they having apetition to see who is the wettest?

    But all of a sudden, he had turned ashen and he stopped stimting them; it was because he had noticed that they were unusually easy to get wet and to be stimted.

    Is it due to their cultivations in the Holy Oracle Sect? Is that the reason why they must have a chaste body?

    A fearful thought dawned upon him; if they are already this sensitive then what about Old Witch Xi?

    Ji Yuan was suddenly fearful for them for he may have identally screwed them unwittingly because of what he had done to them¡­

    His instinct was never wrong and he knew that there was something amiss about their cultivation practice.

    He immediately told Xiang Li and Anyang about his new findings.

    Instead of receiving a praise from Xiang Li, she rebuked him instead: Big Brother, when is thest time that your instinct is correct?

    Anyang chuckled: Xiang Li has a point. You have more misses on your conjectures than a hit.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Mo Bei was shouting almightily with his profound power, "Who is outside?!"

    And when he had sped out, he was already in a robe.

    He was startled to see that it was Ji Yuan, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi.

    Mo Bei looked a little flustered as he said, "It is only me that is inside and there is no one else inside. Hahaha¡­"

    Obviously, they had already spotted Maiden Qin Shuang who was inside. Did he thinks that they were blind or low level cultivators?

    Then it dawned upon Ji Yuan that Mo Bei may have lost alot of his yang essence and his senses were actually dull now.

    Ji Yuan pretended that Qin Shuang was not inside and he joked with Mo Bei, "Where are you just now? I just have a big fight with Old Witch Xi and she had now fled."

    Mo Bei was startled, "You did what?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You don''t know that she is an evil dual cultivator? And that Xiao Muhan and Hua Yingxiong are also her living furnaces."

    Then he purposely stressed to his ears, "I think Maiden Qin Shuang is also her living furnace as well."

    "What??!!" Mo Bei had a big reaction and he was shouting out with shock. "This is impossible, right?! Tell me about all that you know. Quick!"

    Ji Yuan said to him, "I will tell you more when we meetter. I''m going to find Maiden Qin Shuang first. Let''s meet at Ling Feiyue''s meditating caveter. That is where Little Princess is and she will be able to verify if you are a living furnace."

    With that, Ji Yuan had left.

    After Ji Yuan was far away from Mo Bei, Yang Mi asked him. "Obviously Maiden Qin Shuang is with Senior Mo Bei. You are going to let Senior Mo Bei brings Qin Shuang to us?"

    Yu Jingjing asked with a smile, "And so, we just have to go to Maiden Ling Feiyue''s cave then Senior Mo Bei and Maiden Qin Shuang will then be delivered to us?

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Smart. Why are the two of you so smart? If only the two of you are my spirit entities, haha..."

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were smiling bashfully when Ji Yuan had showered his praise upon them.

    As for Xiang Li and Anyang, they were both shouting a big NOOO!!!

 Chapter 496 False Hope Or Hope? (1)

    It had taken Ji Yuan some time to find Ling Feiyue and Little Princess profound signatures among the thousands of towering monuments that were all as tall as mountains.

    And when he did, he saw that they were chatting with each other instead of meditating the profound mysteries of the cultivation cave.

    He had naturally entered with Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi.

    When Ling Feiyue saw him, she was naturally displeased immediately. Not because of him but that Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were cuddling very close to him; it was as though they were his lovers.

    Ling Feiyue had a mix reaction when she saw Yang Mi, "Not Yang Mi too. You don''t even spare the injured."

    As for Little Princess, she just lowered her nces but were smiling enthrallingly and not bothering. However Ji Yuan had remembered that she had told him to enjoy himself before she had left. Therefore she may have already guessed what would have happened.

    There was a sense offort when Ji Yuan saw Little Princess again. She had rarely made her feelings known and she was game for whatever Ji Yuan would like her to do. For example, when he had suggested that Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and her had a foursome with him, she did not resist the thought at all.

    JI Yuan knew that she was just trying to redeem herself from the past but he was missing her old wild side and the arrogant Little Princess.

    But he quickly cast thoughts of Little Princess away,ughing weakly to Ling Feiyue, "Don''t misunderstood. They are both grateful to me for my aid..."

    "Oh? The one that provides profound healing pills is Little Princess and the one that heals Yang Mi with her profound energy is also Little Princess. So what did you actually do? Help her with your hand massage?" Ling Feiyue hummed.

    Even Yang Mi had spoken out, "My lord Ji Yuan, didn''t you say that Jingjing and I will be your consorts?"

    Yu Jingjing was also nodding as she hugged Ji Yuan''s left arm even tighter, "Jingjing will always follow you from now onward."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "Erm, this is not what you all think..."

    But he quickly surrendered as he said weakly, "You are all my consorts. Happy now? Shall we get to the real topics?"

    Ling Feiyue alluring countenance began to hum softly but she did not forget to mention to Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing, "Wee to the harem."

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were also smart as they quickly began to shower Ling Feiyue with praises.

    "Sister Consort Ling Feiyue, you are more beautiful than us..."

    "We are nothingparable to you..."

    "We can only be Ji Yuan''s concubines while like Little Princess, you are his true consort..."

    "We are a little unwilling at first but Ji Yuan has forced himself on us..."

    Ji Yuan interrupted their praises finally when he had heard thest praise that was muttered and he had disyed an ugly look, "This is ridiculous? Who forces upon who, is still a who you knows question."

    But he quickly said as he looked at Little Princess, "Senior Mo Bei will being very soon with Qin Shuang..."

    "And you want me to tell you if they have been turned into a living furnace or an evil dual cultivator, am I right?" Little Princess had quickly said.

    Ji Yuan nodded with a soft sigh, "The worse scenario that I can ept is that Qin Shuang is a living furnace and not an evil dual cultivator. I really do not want Qin Shuang to be an evil dual cultivator..."

    Little Princess, Ling Feiyue and Yu Jingjing were all nodding; they knew that Qin Shuang had given Ji Yuan a lot of tips to survive the 404 Fallen Relic Trial not too long ago.

    "And one more thing." Ji Yuan actually had a sour look when he had said that. "I saw Maiden Qin Shuang and Mo Bei together just now."

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were startled as they said at the same time, "They are together as a couple?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "That I do not know. I am afraid that Senior Mo Bei is a victim just like Xiao Mohan."

    When he had said that, there was a sadness in his eyes.

    Little Princess began to look away because she had recognized the sorrow in his eyes. The art of the evil dual cultivation was really too much in Ji Yuan''s eyes and he wanted to eliminate them.

    Many of the cultivators did not oppose dual cultivation because it is able to nourish the yin and yang of the cultivators at the same time and they can cultivate together as a couple.

    However the evil dual cultivation art is another thing; it only benefits the one who is cultivating and destroys the victim cultivation. Also both the cultivator and the victim would be very promiscuous.

    Ling Feiyue knew by now that Hua Yingxiong was a living furnace and she had discussed with Little Princess earlier on this. As a living furnace, that could mean that Hua Yingxiong had been secretly targeting her and the other maidens. It was no wonder he was appearing to be so humble and friendly. Many of the maidens, including Ling Feiyue already had a good impression of him and they were upset that Ji Yuan had been ''bullying'' him.

    She found herself saying, "Qin Shuang must have..."

    Everyone was quiet now because they all knew that Qin Shuang had probably been sleeping with many men by now.

    Yang Mi was muttering and she was teary, "That was supposed to be my fate tonight...we must help her..."

    Ji Yuan did not want to hurt Qin Shuang too...

    He got nothing to do with living furnace because they were victims themselves. He had only killed Hua Yingxiong because he had shown no remorse and he was trying toy his hands on Yang Mi.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan finally broke the silence, "I will try to help Maiden Qin Shuang. As for Senior Mo Bei, he is just a lusty old man. I will kick him so badly that he will never dare to touch another maiden in his life..."

    All of a sudden he had paused because he could sense two cultivators moving upward the stairs outside and they were reaching the cave very soon.

    And he had recognized Mo Bei loud voice as he shouted, "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan! Little Princess! Little Princess!"

    In a short while Mo Bei and Qin Shuang had indeed arrived into the cave.

    And Mo Bei was still his usual self while Qin Shuang was standing with lower nces.

    Mo Bei was giving Ji Yuan and Little Princess an anxious look and he was saying with great righteous, "I actually didn''t want toe here and I don''t believe in what you are saying. In fact, Maiden Qin Shuang will be my consort to be."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped, "You are marrying Maiden Qin Shuang?"

    Mo Bei nodded angrily, "Why can''t I? Or you are thinking of feasting my Qin Shuang with your dirty mind and hands?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    I am going to kick you now...

    Little Princess suddenly said as she interrupted Ji Yuan and Mo Bei, "Senior Mo is fine. He isn''t a living furnace. As for Maiden Qin Shuang, she is actually a living furnace..."

    Then she be very solemn as she added, "There are many, many restrictions that are on her. She can''t speak or to give us any hints. She can''t even give us any hints be it gestures, writings or riddles. The person that put such a restriction on her must really be extremely vicious."

    She began to sigh, "You can tell that Maiden Qin Shuang must really be most unwilling or else there won''t be so many restrictions that are on her."

    Mo Bei was still in a state of denial and he was saying, "This isn''t true. You shouldn''t be able to know unless..."

    He was suddenly looking at Little Princess and he was about to say that she would not be able to know unless she was an evil dual cultivator herself. But at thest minute, he did not say it aloud.

    Instead he said aloud, "So what if Maiden Qin Shuang is a living furnace? I will still take care of her and will feed her my primeval yang. I have many yang essence hoho."

    Qin Shuang was teary when she had heard Mo Bei and she had long fallen in love with him. But she was afraid that he may despise her when he had learnt of the truth. Moreover she was not any chaste maiden now...

    But Mo Bei was very firm and resolute on this, not only Ji Yuan could see it but everyone else could also see it. And he continued to say, "The Mo n has the Dream Trial and I can cleanse her with the Dream Trial of the Mo n!"

    "That''s nice." Ji Yuan said. "But do you have a billion high grade spirit stones or other simr profound treasures? How much does the Mo n still have? Are all the elders as willing as you? Have you been inside the Dream Trial?"

    Mo Bei was suddenly caught dumbfounded by Ji Yuan, "I...I...erm..."

    It was because Ji Yuan was given the right to enter the Dream Trial by Diviner Mo Ming insistence that he was the future savior and he could affect the destiny of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Even then, elders like Mo Bei were opposed to allow him to enter the Dream Trial, citing high costs that they could not afford. And Diviner Mo Ming was even their Grand Patriarch and he had to join hands with Xue Qianxue to persuade everyone.

    When Ji Yuan had thought of this, he was smiling secretly: Even if Jiajia is from a powerful influence, she still could not be able to enter the Dream Trial like Xue Qianxue and him. This was one area that he was superior to her!

    Little did he know that Jiajia had already paid the one billion high grade spirit stones and she had recentlypleted the Dream Trial.

    Mo Bei suddenly asked, "How?!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly to him, "Are you sure you are asking the right person here? Even my best friend Xiao Muhan is also a living furnace. I can''t even save him. How do you expect me to save Maiden Qin Shuang?"

    Ji Yuan and everyone else was quiet too.

    After some time, Ji Yuan began to say quietly in a most cold and logical way, "Give her up. Or you will never be able to be a peaked great saint and ascend to the Immortal Realm."

    Ling Feiyue was upset with him, "Ji Yuan you!"

    Ji Yuan did not want to say this. But he was his own sectarian leader and he was often forced to say all the bad things that others did not want to hear. That was why he was always the strict and inflexible sectarian leader in the eyes of Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. And he knew that most of his prot??g??s did not like him too but someone had to be the bad guy that was willing to tell the hard truth.

    So he answered Ling Feiyue, "So you want to lock her up like a prisoner? Or allow Mo Bei''stent talent to waste away? Also don''t forget that we are in the midst of a trial too."

    Dream Mist had suddenly appeared in the cave, startling everyone.

    It was because no one had detected her presence till now.

    Behind her veil, her alluring misty eyes that seemed to sparkle with the stars seemed to have an irresistible pull on everyone.

    She walked gently into the cave before she stopped at Qin Shuang and softly whispered, "Don''t worry, you will be fine."

    Then she had tapped Qin Shuang''s shoulder with a meaningful nce.

    Qin Shuang answered, "Thank you for your concern but Qin Shuang will not harm Senior Mo Bei and I will leave the group..."

    All of a sudden she was gasping with shock for she had suddenly said what was on her mind to everyone.

    Even Little Princess was blinking her eyes, "This is impossible. Qin Shuang cultivation soul core is no longer impure... she is no longer a living furnace now..."

 Chapter 497 False Hope Or Hope? (2)

    Little Princess was stunningly looking at Dream Mist, "How did you do it? And how?"

    She could not even find traces of any profound energies. This happened way too fast¡­

    Ji Yuan however had an ugly look because he could feel his inner spiritual seas being consumed again. He was cursing silently: She ought to ask me for my permission. I have never known of any spirit entity that can use a cultivator''s inner spiritual seas without permission¡­

    What Ji Yuan had said is the truth and is the unbroken spiritualw between a cultivator and a contracted spirit entity. Spirit entities usually do not have any free will.

    Qin Shuang was looking at Dream Mist with great awe, "Thank you¡­ Maiden Dream Mist¡­"

    Mo Bei was stunned too but he began to look at Ji Yuan then Little Princess before looking at Dream Mist, "Actually, are you sure that you are not colluding with each other just to fool me? How can this sort of thing be removed so quickly?"

    If anyone was Mo Bei, they would think the same too and moreover Ji Yuan was sometimes a naughty trickster that liked to fool Mo Bei.

    Ji Yuan began to growl at Mo Bei, "Do you think that I will be so bored as to fool you with something like this?"

    Mo Bei stared at Ji Yuan before nodding, "If this is my Junior Ji Yuan then definitely."

    Ji Yuan was speechless: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Howe I didn''t know my reputation is so bad in your eyes?"

    Mo Bei answered him, "Do you even have a reputation to begin with?"

    Even Ling Feiyue could not help chipping in with a softugh, "Ji Yuan is so illogical that he is capable of doing anything that you won''t be thinking of."

    Ji Yuan growled at Ling Feiyue, "My dearest Feiyue, whose side are you on? He is using us, you know."

    While Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue wasughing at each other, Qin Shuang was looking at Mo Bei now and asking him, "Senior Mo Bei, are you really¡­ serious about me?"

    Mo Bei embraced Qin Shuang tightly in front of everyone and he had tears shimmering in his eyes, "Of course! Of course! I''m not an old uncle like some junior who cares about chastity. I know that we are meant for each other and that is important for me. I only want you. What else do I want now? Come with me to my Eons Divine Mountains!"

    Qin Shuang nodded slowly. She was very, very touched by what Mo Bei had promised her. She had thought that her life was at the end of a tunnel but this tunnel was not the end and was filled with light now.

    Dream Mist suddenly said to Qin Shuang, "I''ve purified your soul core now. You will not be limited to just being a saintess in the future. You can even be a great saintess and your lightning cmity will be easier than most."

    Qin Shuang was startled. She was now sixth realm golden supremacy and she had dreamed of the difficult saintess position day in and night out. She did not even know if she would be able to survive her divine cmity to be a seventh realm saintess; she just did not have the cultivation resources. That was why along with many of her celestial sectarian prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters, she had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to search for more cultivation resources and profound treasures.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was more brutal than she had thought and the cultivators were from all over the Celestial Realm. Many of them had their ambitions and they could hide their ambitions very well, be they orthodox or unorthodox. As a lone cultivator that got separated from her prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters and also a sixth realm golden supremacy, the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were really testing for her.

    Dream Mist smiled to her before she looked at Ji Yuan and Mo Bei. Then she turned to walk away, "Enjoy your squabbles. I''m going off now."

    Ji Yuan could see that Dream Mist was able to purify Qin Shuang so he quickly stopped her, "Maiden Dream Mist, I didn''t know that you''ve got such an astonishing ability. May I implore you to remove the dark taint that is on my friend Xiao Muhan?"

    Dream Mist turned slowly to face Ji Yuan¡­

    She knew that she should not have intervened to help Qin Shuang but she was touched by Qin Shuang; she had been willing to forego her life just to warn everyone and for that, she was willing to take the ve soul mark a second time. Unlike the other depraved ves, Qin Shuang felt no pleasures but only disgust

    Moreover the love that Mo Bei had for Qin Shuang meant that they would undergo plenty of hardships together. But eventually they would be able to ovee it together as a couple. And she could see Ji Yuan gathering his harem to help Mo Bei and Qin Shuang as well.

    Ji Yuan was a badmouthed cultivator and looking unhelpful most of the time but the truth was that he would go to a great heights to help all his friends, including Xiao Muhan. That was why Ji Yuan best friends never have to pretend to be someone else and they were allfortable around him.

    Therefore she had intervened to help Qin Shuang.

    Ji Yuan was anxious for his best friend Xiao Muhan, so he asked again. "Well, I don''t want him to touch any of my harem, that''s why. Haha¡­" The truth was that he did not want Xiao Muhan to suffer any loss in his cultivation.

    Dream Mist said to Ji Yuan, "I am only returning a favor back to you by helping Maiden Qin Shuang."

    By favor, she meant that time when she had caused Ji Yuan to lose his inner spiritual sea hence preventing him from using any of his profound strength.<sub> </sub>

    She added nonchntly, "This Queen has a cold and hard heart. Therefore I am afraid that I can''t help your friend Xiao Muhan."

    When she had helped Qin Shuang, her avatar was also being weakened. That was why she was reluctant to help Xiao Muhan. Moreover, Xiao Muhan had a more impure soul than Qin Shuang and the effort to help him was many times greater.

    With that, she had left the cave while leaving Ji Yuan to have a bitter aftertaste.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "She is able to help but she refuses to help Xiao Muhan¡­"

    But secretly he was actually delighted that she had helped Qin Shuang. It was just that he just was not able to understand this Dream Mist. Just who was she? While it was not surprising to him that most of the higher ranking spirit entities know about Xiang Li as the Goddess'' Tear but this Dream Mist was actually trying to force him to make a wish.

    Xiang Li was suddenly suggesting to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I''ve an idea on how to make her help Xiao Muhan.

    Ji Yuan frowned to her: Even a big brain like me can''t think of a way. Can you?

    Anyang giggled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Xiang Li is suggesting for you to bang Dream Mist so that you can force her to submit to you.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled: That is right. Good idea, right huh?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: We really need to talk about some moral codes, Xiang Li. And you too, Anyang.

    Ling Feiyue smiled and had interrupted Ji Yuan''s conversation with Xiang Li and Anyang, "Minus the first day here. We still have four days of cultivation to do. I wish everyone good luck in your lucky urrences. The time that we have is really short so please make the full use of it."

    She emphasized, "No secret meeting until then."

    Ji Yuan had a bitter look and so did Mo Bei.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing also had a most disappointing look.

    Ji Yuan was actually very weak in most of the cultivations and he was staring nkly at the profound energies of this cave: Someone please kill me for the next four days¡­

    A cultivation slip is rare in the hands of a cultivator and it is unlike the standard scripts and cannot be copied easily.

    It was because a cultivation slip was just dots and symbols, with some symbols even containing thousands of dots. These symbols and dots represented the cultivation insight of that particr profound art and is the ster systems within the body to unleash the celestial power of the cultivator.

    That is why it was not as easy to master whenpared to a sword art nor can it be copied easily; to copy one, even a mistake in the spacing of a dot can change entire meanings!

    It is just too hard to copy a cultivation slip if one does not have a good understanding of the profound art. Even if they can understand it, copying a cultivation slip is on an another level. That is why cultivators often fight to the death over a single original cultivator slip and even just a portion of it.

    In many celestial ns, cultivation slips are the sect most valuable heritages and only direct prot¨¦g¨¦s are able to view the cultivation slips. For heir apparent, they can even get the original and the copied version forparison because sometimes a sect may improve a certain aspect of the celestial profound art.

    Least but not all, everyone has a different constitution and they have to adapt the ster systems of the cultivation slip for their own. That is why the same cultivation slip often have many meanings when used by many cultivators.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was staring at the broken cultivation profound energies that were waiting for him to be converted into symbols andparing to his existing cultivation knowledge.

    He gave a bored look as he thought: Other cultivation MCs can learn any profound art instantly and be insanely powerful but why is that I have such a mind-block?

    Then he shrugged his shoulders: This peaked great saint here decides to practice my swordy for the next four days instead. I am going to train on my reflexes and speed. To hell with all the cultivation practice. I am already a peaked great saint. Wakakaka¡­

    Xiang Li reminded him: Big Brother, this isme. How do you improve upon your profound strength then? Speed attacks don''t work against the cultivators if you can''t even prate through their profound auras. You need more profound power, PROFOUND POWER!

    Anyang was also nodding: Look at that Jue Jie. His profound defense and aura are so powerful. That is because he is a genius in cultivating.

    Ji Yuanughed their concerns off: But still I had killed him, right? Haha¡­

 Chapter 498 What Is Ectasy Island? (R18)

    Somewhere in the final trial;

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had just finished a session of steamy coption acts with Lin Antian; the two of them were naked together but they were embracing tightly.

    For Lin Antian, she had felt uncontroble lust for him because he was perfect in many ways and he was even a secret peaked great saint. He was her best living furnace.

    She was quite sad actually because a living furnace often had short lives. The more they copted, the faster they would die. But she had no other choice but to take his very pure primeval yang because she would see the benefits in the speed of her improving cultivation. Soon, she would be able to breakthrough to the earth-step of the Great Saintess Level!

    Her entire body was flushed with redness because Lin Antian was like a ravaging beast that hady his hands without any mercy on her body. And right now, he was still ying with her swelling breasts; he was still squeezing and shaking it with all his strength, causing her breasts to swell with lusty pleasures and she was moaning uncontroble as he was still inside her.

    She said in-between her soul snatching moans, "Faster¡­ I want you more¡­ and harder¡­"

    She had climaxed again and once more Lin Antian was pouring his yang essence into her. His yang essence was a lot and this was already his seventh time.

    <o>,m As she slumped to the ground, Lin Antian forced his little brother into her mouth and said coolly. "This time, I want to thrust into your throat. Make sure you swallow everything."</o>

    Throughout this, he was still continuing to shake her breasts nonstop and he had already shook her breasts for the past five hours.

    Grand Matriarch Xi eagerly obeyed his depravedmands.

    And soon, her throat exploded with his yang essence and overflowed out of her throat.

    She was very satisfied when Lin Antian had pulled out from her and coolly said, "You are the first woman to have withstand my full yang might. Even your chrysanthemum is so nice."

    Lin Antian had heap praises upon her!

    This caused Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to smile at the praises.

    Lin Antian continued to say, "Unfortunately, I can''t remain in this forsaken ce for too long. I must kill this Ji Yuan now. I will hunt him down and kill him. So I have to say goodbye to you now."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, "You''re leaving?"

    But secretly she began to smile: Even if you want to leave, I can alwaysmand you to stay. You are my living furnace and you can''t escape from me.

    Lin Antian answered firmly, "That is right."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping chuckled softly, "This must be your very first time in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, right?"

    Lin Antian nodded and said, "That''s right."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Even if you have the intention to go back to the Gods'' Monument City, Ji Yuan may have already departed. It isn''t a secret that he has the intention to visit the interior of the final trial which is also the hardest part of the final trial. What are your chances of killing him? You can''t even defeat him previously."

    Lin Antian answered coolly, "It is fifty-fifty."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping frowned, "Then why did you flee thest time?"

    Lin Antian said, "It is because of Maiden Dream Mist. I had an uneasy feeling because of her. So it is best that I keep my trump cards first. Moreover the next time that we fight, Ji Yuan will think that I am the inferior opponent while he is the superior opponent. Then I will be able to use my trump cards in more effective way against him."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingpingughed, "It is only a fifty-fifty. I however, know of a 100% way to kill him and to take away his maidens from him."

    Lin Antian looked startled, "Are you sure?"<sub> </sub>

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping chuckled, "We should go to the middle of the final trial first. While there are dozens of trials in misced locations, these trials will not be the same and always randomly appear. That is why no two final trials are alike. However, there is one ce in the entire final trial that is always at the crossroad of the middle final trial and that is Ecstasy Ind."

    Lin Antian asked curiously, "Ecstasy Ind?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping exined with a lewd smile, "That''s right. That ce is a most dangerous ce and its difficulty rating can sometimes be even higher than the interior of the final trial. That is the ce to kill Ji Yuan and to take away his maidens."

    Lin Antian asked, "What is so dangerous about that ce?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping sighed softly, "That is a ce where all the orthodox cultivators will turn into unorthodox cultivators and the unorthodox cultivators will turn into heretic cultivators. Ji Yuan is a man and he will definitely not give that ce a miss. That is the ce where Ji Yuan will surely die. I have been there only once and I can''t even stay there for a minute."

    Lin Antian asked, "What is in that ce?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping began to smile, "It is forbidden to share anything about Ecstasy Ind. It has the same simrw to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and it is reinforced even in here. In additional there are many mysticws too. However, it is stricter than even the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth itself and I can''t even tell you about the mysticws in there. It is for you to find out."

    Lin Antian was looking perplexed, "A ce that you won''t even stay for a minute?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling, "That is the past. This time, I may be even be enjoying myself in there."

    Lin Antian said, "Then I shall enter this Ecstasy Ind myself to find out."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping panicky said, "Oh no, you shall stay outside. It is not the ce for you¡­"

    Lin Antian suddenly said to her, "What if I refuse you?"

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping giggled as she lifted her breasts in his view, "You won''t because I know that you hold me in the greatest of respect¡­"

    "You''re wrong." Lin Antian said coolly, "In fact, I only think of you as the lowest of whore to be disregarded."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was shocked; this was not supposed to be happening¡­

    Lin Antian said, "Just now during our lovemaking session, I''ve already removed the taint in my soul sea. What''s more, I have absorbed your primeval yin instead. If you don''t believe, you can try to cultivateter."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping stammered, "No, this isn''t true. My cultivation is increasing¡­"

    Lin Antian returned a wry smile, "That is only the impression that I want you to feel. That is actually one of my divine arts."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping screamed at him, "Why are you treating me like this?"

    Lin Antianughed, "Firstly, you have promised me Dream Mist. But you have broken your promise. Secondly, you have actually turned me into your living furnace while my soul strength is weak for lusting after Dream Mist pure primeval yin. I have thought that my soul core is already very perfect but you have proven me wrong."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping said to him hatefully, "So what are you doing to do with me?"

    Lin Antian answered coldly, "Nothing. In a few more days, your cultivation will suffer a bacsh and you will drop to the half-mortal great saintess level or lower. If you are lucky, it may not be permanent. That is punishment enough for you. I don''t want to dirty my hands to kill you and I will kill Ji Yuan myself."

    With that, he had turned his back on her and had put on his clothing before leaving the ce. As he left, he said. "I will get to Ectasy Ind before Ji Yuan. Thanks for your tips."

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping screamed at his back, "May you and Ji Yuan dies in Ecstasy Ind!"

 Chapter 499 The Great Desolate Divine Palace

    At the Great Forsaken Basin, where a gigantic maelstrom boiled over the great deste mist that covered the spiritual mountains and deste under-mountains of the Celestial Realm.

    This great deste maelstrom was over a hundred miles and was still expanding.

    The deste aura of this ce was extremely heavy and great flocks of powerful deste beasts had built their worlds below.

    If the deste aura of a ce is strong, it will mean that the spiritual aura will be weak for this is the mysticws of the Celestial Realm.

    And this ce was extremely robust in its deste aura so finding 7th, 8th and even 9th rank deste monsters were a lot easier to find here.

    Below the maelstrom, was the divine pce of the Great Demon God Hong Meng.

    In this ce, all deste beasts, even the 9th rank deste monsters had to bow down to the profound might of the Great Demon God Hong Meng for he was a True God of the Deste Divine Realm.

    And now, he was caressing a celestium sculpture of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Jiajia and she was also known as the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    This celestium sculpture of Jiajia was extremely obscene; she was naked and her breasts were several times bigger like a balloon and she was feeding two infant horned deste demons with her nipples.

    And there was another obscene that portray the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue in a simr way as well.

    But this was also the sculpture that the Great Demon God Hong Meng greatly enjoyed viewing and touching the naked posture of Jiajia for she was to be the great mother and consort of the Great Demon God Hong Meng.

    He knew that Jiajia was the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. While the Great Goddess Celestial Alice was invible because she was in the seventh heaven of the Immortal Divine Realm, her daughter was now in his grasp.

    He also knew that Jiajia was a chaste maiden because she was practicing a type of extreme yin primeval profound art and he desired her body greatly.

    He had watched the battle scry between Deste Dragon God Longdi and Jiajia. He had to admit that Jiajia was more formidable than he had thought.

    At that time the Goddess Mei and he were directing amunication to invade the Immortal Divine Realm, spreading chaos for the Righteous Immortals.

    He was quite surprised that Jiajia had shattered her golden cultivation core and had even escaped from the Deste Dragon God Longdi. He was naturally furious because this was a trap to ensnare her.

    The Goddess Mel was cuddling nakedly against him, "Are you still upset with Longdi? Now that we know where they are hiding, we can definitely destroy their nest. And this Jiajia will be yours."

    As she had said that, the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Sagess Alyssa and the Evil Cultivation Master had slowly entered the great hall.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi was naturally walking in front while the Sagess Alyssa and the Evil Cultivation Master were behind.

    No one had noticed that the Sagess Alyssa and the Evil Cultivation Master were secretly making eye contact for they had now made a secret alliance with each other. They had even copted together.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi took a burning look at the obscene sculpture of Jiajia before he said, "This time I will get Saintess Fang Zhenfei and the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue for you."

    He was angry that the Great Demon God Hong Meng refused to give him the Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Jiajia but there was nothing he could do to oppose him.

    That was because the Great Demon God was able to utilize his profound arts to the ninth level immortal positioning while he was still restricted to the peaked seventh immortal realm. The same thing had also happened to the Death God Mingwang.

    All three of them were originally the True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm and their cultivation realm at the peaked 9th immortal positioning. They were half-divinities to the mystical Tenth Immortal Positioning and were stronger than any of the peaked 9th immortal positioning due to their bloodlines as first generation immortal gods.

    And the Great Demon God Hong Meng had a higher cultivation than anyone of them and he was said to have the highest possibility to be a True Divinity.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng said bluntly, "They are at the Eon Firmament Mountains. This time round, I want you to take the Evil Cultivation Master and his men and the Sagess Alyssa with you. As for the Goddess Mel¡­"

    He began to stroke her enticing figure before saying, "She shall remain in Great Deste Divine Pce with me."<sub> </sub>

    The Goddess Mel giggled, "I have to because I am also helping to direct the Immortal Wars now."

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi frowned unhappily, "I shall not fail you."

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng continued to ask gently the Goddess Mel, "How is the Immortal War doing?"

    The Goddess Mel shook her head and she said matter of fact, "Without the True Deste Gods to direct the denizen of Deste Divine Realm and the Deste Immortals, it is only a matter of time before we do. We are not as strong as previously as when we have the Ancient Fortress¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Great Demon God Hong Meng had grabbed her chin and said coldly. "Remember this. The Ancient Fortress has nothing to do with the Deste Divine Realm. You are all my ves."

    The Goddess Mel was quiet immediately as she nodded with shimmering tears. They, the Deste Immortals were banished from the Immortal Divine Realm to the Deste Divine Realm in their city fortress the Ancient Fortress. There, they were allowed to dwell by the three True Deste Gods of the Deste Divine Realm.

    At that time, the Deste Immortals were strong and they had many peaked 9th rank immortals. They were even stronger than many of the Deste Demonic Races of the Deste Divine Realm.

    But after the invasion of the Immortal Divine Realm, they had lost the Ancient Fortress and many of the peaked Deste Immortals. Many of the Deste Immortals like the Goddess Mel had decided to surrender to the Deste Demonic Races like the Great Demon God Hong Meng instead of the Righteous Pangu Immortals.

    The Goddess Mel tried to distract attention from herself by saying, "I wonder how the Death God Mingwang is doing? The final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth should start by now."

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng answered coldly, "He should be able to kill Ji Yuan and get Little Princess back for us."

    When the name of Little Princess was mentioned, there was a twitch on the face of the Evil Cultivation Master. It was because the Great Demon God Hong Meng had turned murderous and he had turned to look coldly at him.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng said coldly, "Little Princess is my creation and you have actually ruined this creation of mine by allowing Ji Yuan to copte with her. You have better prayed that the Death God Mingwang will do you a favor by bringing her back."

    The Evil Cultivation Master had broken into cold sweat because this was a secret that only the Great Demon God Hong Meng and he knew. Not even the Sagess Alyssa knew about it because she had refused to surrender her body to the Deste Demonic Race.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng had secretly impregnated the Sagess Alyssa Lu Yinxuan and Little Princess carried his secret bloodline. This result of their union waspletely unexpected to even the Great Demon God Hong Meng who had never sired a single offspring in tens of thousands of years.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce had been trying toy their hands on the Sacred Maiden Manual for thousand of years but they had always failed and also because Grand Matriarch Han Yuchi was also cunning.

    Therefore they had tried to put Zhao Songjin to be a spy in the Celestial Orthodox Sect and the next Sacred Maiden in order to study the Sacred Maiden manual itself. There, they discovered that once a practitioner had mastered to the 9th profound level of the Sacred Maiden Profound Art, they could also benefit her chastity taker by making him more fertile.

    That was why the Great Demon God Hong Meng had wanted to take Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue for himself.

    But Ji Yuan had taken the chastity of Xue Qianxue and had taken her most precious chastity primeval yin for himself.

    This enraged the Great Demon God Hong Meng to no ends.

    He had now regretted not killing an insignificant ant like Ji Yuan to no ends.

    The Dark Demon God Hong Meng now flickered a vision array in front of everyone which showed 33 female demonic cultivators.

    He said, "These 33 female demonic cultivators are my tools to conquering the Celestial Realm. They have no names but are ranked 1 to 33. 1 being the strongest while 33 is the weakest. The Immortal Divine Realm has their 33 Heavenly Sovereigns and I have my 33 Demonic Swords."

    Then he said regally to the Deste Dragon God Longdi, "I shall let youmand number 5 and 21 to 33 for the attack on the Eons Firmament Mountains. And don''t fail me!"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi hummed coldly, "What is there to fear from a mere mountain of cultivators? Even though I am nowhere to my peak but my cultivation strength is that of a 9th rank immortal. Thews of this Celestial Realm can only partially affect us since we are not denizens of the Immortal Divine Realm. It can only affect our profound arts but not our cultivation strength."

    As he walked away, he sneered coldly. "With three half-divinities in an alliance, who in the Celestial Realm can oppose us? Only a half-divinity can kill a half-divinity and there are none in the Celestial Realm. Definitely not that good-for-nothing Ji Yuan. Anyway, killing is the forte of the Death God Mingwang and he has never failed you. Ji Yuan will surely be a dead man."

 Chapter 500 The Wonderland Of The Spirit Plants

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, inside the final trial;

    A group of 6 cultivators were in the spiritual nts wondend and they had found something extremely rare.

    It was a million year old nt that was called the Celestial Shadow Fern and it was useful to concoct many powerful potions and could even be used on a divine weapon to upgrade it.

    Moreover this was a one million year old nt and the effects must be extremely potent.

    All these 8 cultivators began to pull at the small nt, hoping to uproot it.

    They had all made an agreement, whoever managed to pull it, was able to keep it; they had decided to do it in a most civil way.

    So they began to pull this small nt.

    This may be a small nt but all 8 cultivators were now breaking in cold sweats as they exerted all their profound strength.

    It was not as easy as it sounded for this small nt had one million year of growth and it was extremely difficult to pull it and they probably need several hours to do it.

    One of the cultivators suggested, "Why don''t we use our weapons?"

    Another cultivator angrily rebuked him, "While it cut down the time but we still need the spiritual roots. It is also extremely valuable."

    "If you cut it, who shall get it?" Another cultivator was also rebuking at the same time.

    While they were arguing, a dark shadow was suddenly looming above me.

    Everyone looked up with horror as the profound animus of an eighth rank profound deste beast had suddenly emerged on top of them.

    They were all terrified and had all drawn out their weapons.

    "8th rank profound deste beast?!"

    "How the heck can we win this thing?"

    "Shall we run?"

    "And give up this million year old Celestial Shadow Fern? Never!"

    The 8th rank profound deste beast was huge and it had 6 legs and 6 ws. Moreover, it wasshing tenacles that were 40m long and whipping the surroundings with its profound might.

    The most powerful of the cultivator attacked its leg but he was shocked to see that even his mortal-step divine sword had failed to cut it.

    A power cultivator was weakly punching it with his fist to no avail, "This monster profound aura is stronger than my profound power and I am a saint¡­"

    Two cultivators were already injured.

    And one more had almost died when he had quickly thought of his golden talisman and had used it.

    A cultivator with a strong profound art managed to cut one of its 20 tenacles and was smiling how awesome he was until the cut tenacle began to regenerate instantly and whipped him to explode onto a mountain wall, instantly dispelling his profound aura and causing his golden ribs to crack.

    The remaining cultivators were despaired and one of the cultivators shouted, "Run in five different directions. This is our only hope!"

    Just as all the cultivators were fleeing, a small shadow had suddenly jumped from the mountain top and had punched against the body of the 8th rank profound beast with his profound power and a sword spirit could be seen in his forearm.

    Everyone was shocked because a cultivator with six spirit animus wings had suddenly appeared and he was even levitating!

    One cultivator stammered, "He is flying?!"

    Many could not believe their eyes.

    The cultivator with six spirit animus wings had immediately turned to them to gently rebuke them, "I am technically levitating and not flying. Haha¡­"

    While he got distracted, the 8th rank profound beasts attacked with its 6 ws and 20 tenacles. No cultivators would be able to evade such massive attacks that flooded almost everywhere.

    A cultivator below muttered weakly, "Did he just got himself distracted¡­"

    Another cultivator said, "He is going to be dead."

    But this cultivator with six spirit animus wings moved with such agility to evade all the attacks that all the onlookers were stunned.

    Then they saw that the cultivator with six spirit animus had suddenly raised his profound aura to the eighth realm and had shed two saint-step divine sword.

    He moved with so much profound power in his strokes that the 8th rank profound monster was chop and slice to hundreds of parts as he shed his miracle sword art the Thousands Sacred Sword.

    All five of the cultivators were stunned¡­

    "There is a cultivator that can reach the 8th cultivation realm? Isn''t he an immortal already?"<sub> </sub>

    "He has two saint-step divine sword¡­"

    "Two sword spirits¡­"

    "He has even divine harmony with his divine swords and so did his sword spirits¡­"

    "And also a miracle sword art¡­"

    The cultivator with the six spirit animus wings was of course Ji Yuan.

    He grinned and said, "I actually did not want toe to this wondend. I am actually in a rush to reach to the furthest end of the final trial. But when I saw that the five of you are in trouble, I can''t helping to your aid."

    All five cultivators were extremely touched and they bowed with their hands respectfully, "Thank you senior¡­ may we know your name¡­"

    As they said that, they noticed that the cultivator with six spirit animus wings had pluck the one million Celestial Shadow Fern as well as all the rare parts from the 8th rank profound deste beast to his spatial ring before waving to interrupt them, "No need to thank me! This ce is really dangerous! Don''t stay for too long and good luck with your cultivation finds!"

    And he had taken off.

    Suddenly all five of the cultivators had a most ugly look before they said with great exasperation, "Let''s go elsewhere to look for another spirit nt. This one is taken by that unknown cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuan had immediately sped back to where hispanions were waiting as he said to them, "See! I told you that I will be fast."

    Four days had quickly passed and they had already left the Gods'' Monument City. And another three more days had also passed.

    Ling Feiyue said weakly to Ji Yuan, "You are the one that just tells us that we mustn''t enter this spirit wondend to pick any spirit nts because all the rare spirit nts are guarded by one or more deste monsters. But you went nevertheless."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I can''t leave them to their deaths and moreover we are quite near to them even though we are passing through only. It didn''t really take a long time¡­"

    "It didn''t really take a long time to showoff how awesome you are, right?" Bai Qianfeng had suddenly teased him.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "My Qianfeng knows me so well. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was grumbling, "Why I am feeling so weak now¡­"

    Ji Yuan patted him, "That is because you are a living furnace now and you are not touching any of my beloveds. So day in and night out, either me or Senior Mo Bei will be taking turn to watch over you."

    Mo Bei stroked his beard while smiling at Qin Shuang, "That is right."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan looked weakly at the other maidens for some help.

    But Dream Mist, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all moving away from him and it seemed to him that they were all saying, "Please go away and don''t touch us!"

    Even Mo Bei was protective over Qin Shuang and moved to protect Qin Shuang from him.

    Ji Yuan grinned to Xiao Muhan, "As long as you don''t touch any maidens for ten years, you will live long. It is just a little cultivation loss."

    Xiao Muhan muttered helplessly, "Do you know how much cultivation resources that I have expended to be a saint? I don''t want to be a golden supremacy again."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly walked away, not paying much attention to Xiao Muhan as he said, "Come! We must hurry!"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    The reason why Ji Yuan was hurrying, was due to his conversation with Feng Minyue when they had set off from the Gods'' Monument City.

    He was saying, "The final trial is so vast and there are only 3000 of us. We don''t need to hurry."

    Feng Minyue replied to him, "3000 cultivators are only for day 1. Everyday thousands of cultivators will arrive at the final trial. It is estimated that 10% of the 300 000 to 500 000 cultivators will be able to reach the final trial. So, 10% of 500k is 50 000 cultivators. This year, it looked particr crowded so I guess there may be more than 50 000 golden celestials this year."

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he had heard the number of cultivators that would be in the final trial.

    Feng Minyue continued, "Also, most of the experienced golden celestials will be rushing to the middle and interior of the final trial. This is because there is nothing much to see at the exterior final part whenpared to the middle and interior. And we have wasted a lot of time already. I gather that more than 20 000 cultivators are actually ahead of us by now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had quickly said to everyone, "Everyone! We are going all the way to the middle final trial. No stopping!"

 Chapter 501 Yun Chi Becomes The Death God

    Another two dayster had passed quickly.

    A wondend of a gigantic floating citadel could be seen chained to the ground but Ji Yuan had decided to give it a miss. Nothing in the exterior final trial now interested him.

    Ji Yuan and his group ofpanions had taken a short break in the mountains.

    They could tell that it was now getting more dangerous now and deste monsters were now roaming everywhere and it was obvious that they were reaching the middle final trial very soon.

    Yun Chi had suddenly called Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng to have a chat with her.

    This surprised Ji Yuan for it did not happened often.

    When the three of them were alone, Ji Yuan asked Yun Chi. "My dear Yun Chi, you want to talk to me?"

    At the same time he was rubbing Yun Chi''s belly as he said to his daughter, "Be good. Daddy will protect you."

    His unborn daughter answered softly, "I wonder what Daddy looks like. Howe your profound strength is weaker than Mummy and Big Sister Qianfeng?"

    Ji Yuan exined weakly, "I am not a power cultivator like them. When I draw my divine swords, my profound power can bepared against them. Profound power is everything. Next time, let me impress you with my miracle sword art. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was giggling, "You can try but I can still beat you up."

    Ji Yuan quickly asked with a weak smile, "Yun Chi, why do you call us here? Why can''t you tell us in the group?"

    Then he rubbed his chin, "Or are you actually thinking of a threesome with me? With two immortal maidens, I am most willing¡­"

    Yun Chi quickly cut in, "No, I am not thinking of that and please don''t say anything bad in front of our daughter now."

    Bai Qianfeng was also flushing.

    Ji Yuan quickly cut his crap, "I am only joking. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li pointed out: Big Brother, you sound so serious just now.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to Xiang Li: I am serious¡­

    Anyang giggled: That is our master.

    Yun Chi solemnly said to Ji Yuan, "We are reaching Ecstasy Ind very soon. Promise me that you must never, never step into that ursed Ecstasy Ind."

    Ji Yuan was startled for he had never heard of that ce before.

    Yun Chi said, "The Ecstasy Ind lies in the crossroad to the middle final trial and all the cultivators will have to go through this wondend. They can choose to walk through this wondend or to go to Ecstasy Ind itself. But you must never go to that ce or else you won''t be able toe back. It is not a ce for impure soul like you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "My soul will be impure?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "Very, very impure."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "May I know what is inside Ecstasy Ind?"

    Yun Chi answered coolly, "It is forbidden to speak of what is inside because we have ced a special mysticw inside."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "We?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "That ce is actually created by the profound powers of the Great Demon God, the Deste Dragon Lord and me including."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Yun Chi continued, "We have actually tried to find the artefect core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth a long time ago. Having failed in our attempts despited many tries, we have since created an anomaly inside the final trial to bend thews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to serve our nefarious purposes. I can only say that I know this ce all too well and it is not suitable for you. Moreover it is pointless for you to visit the ce."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Alright then. I promise you."

    Yun Chi sighed with great relief before she said to Ji Yuan, "Look at my true form."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "True form?"

    Yun Chi had suddenly disyed her profound strength and there were three pairs of silver wings on her back. These wings were actually swords and there were twenty-four in total. All of these swords were at the immortal-step level.

    And the profound strength that Yun Chi had just disyed was that of a ninth rank peaked immortal positioning and the pressure that Ji Yuan could feel was immerse that he began to step back with great fright.

    Even Bai Qianfeng who was a ninth rank initial immortal was fearful of Yun Chi.

    Yun Chi said coolly, "I have suppressed my cultivation strength to fight you because I didn''t want anyone to know of my true cultivation strength. Do you understand now? And I have not disyed my angelic spirit animus yet."

    Ji Yuan was still startled, "My Yun Chi is indeed very strong. Haha¡­"<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi began to lower her nces, "I don''t know why I have chosen to fall into your hands. Maybe this is my destiny¡­"

    She had a mission to kill Ji Yuan and it was all too easy for her. She was like a hunter ying sport with her prey because her prey had no idea how strong the hunter was.

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan, "Do you know how strong the Great Demon God and Deste Dragon Lord are now?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "They are very strong¡­"

    Yun Chi said slowly, "A eighth realm middle immortal cultivation is still an ant in front of a peaked ninth rank immortal god."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly and he had to agree with Yun Chi''s conclusion.

    Yun Chi said, "I am training Qianfeng to use her deste profound energies. Right now, I am just hiding my deste profound energies in my righteous profound energies."

    Then all of a sudden, her profound aura had turned purple and had disyed her deste profound energies.

    Even her twenty-four swords had turned ck!

    Yun Chi had suddenly taken out her Death God Mingwang mask and said to Ji Yuan, "I have important business at the Ecstasy Ind. Heed my advice. Do not ever go there or else not even I can save you. It is not the ce for any cultivators to go. In fact, it is a trap."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "A trap?"

    But Yun Chi did not say more as she said, "I am going off now. May we meet soon."

    Ji Yuan was shocked as he stammered immediately, "Yun Chi, you are leaving our group?!"

    Yun Chi nodded, "I have taught my divine skill to Sister Qianfeng here. She will be able to protect you. By the way, be wary of Dream Mist. She is extremely formidable. I don''t know if she will make her move against you when I have left but you ought to be careful of her. But she doesn''t mean to be your enemy. If she isn''t, maybe she can help you."

    Ji Yuan wasughing weakly; he knew that Dream Mist was not his enemy because he had groped her on numerous times when he was weak. When he was weak, she was weak too. They were sharing from the same inner spiritual sea after all.

    Yun Chi said with a heartfelt look at Ji Yuan, "Good bye. And good luck at the interior of the final trial."

    With that, she had sped off and disappeared.

    She was literally flying over the mountains with her wings and in a sh, she was gone!

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded when he saw her speed. "She can travel so fast¡­did she just cover 10 days of our trip in the final trial with just an instant of her flight?"

    Bai Qianfeng giggled, "I can fly too if I have my profound strength back."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to say, "What is the use of our legs for? It is naturally used for walking and running on the ground. I am strictly against flying."

    But he wasmenting how useless his swiftness movement skill was. How matter how fast he could run, he still could not outrun Yun Chi.

    He could only say to himself: Luckily Yun Chi is not my enemy now. Or else I don''t even know how I die.

    Then he paused for a while before muttering to himself: Weird. I have been sneezingtely. I wonder if there are any one cursing and wishing me to be dead? No, it can''t be. I am a good guy and I don''t have any enemies. Haha¡­

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "Sister Yun Chi is gone now. We should continue our way to the middle final trial and avoid this Ecstasy Ind."

    Ji Yuan looked at Bai Qianfeng with a chuckle, "Naturally we are going to this Ecstasy Ind first to look for Yun Chi."

    Bai Qianfeng was shocked, "But you promise¡­"

    "I did promise but it isn''t an oath. Haha." Ji Yuan interrupted her with chuckles.

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng said exasperatedly, "You are such a liar. No, I won''t allow you to go to the Ecstasy Ind¡­"

    All of a sudden she was breathing hard because Ji Yuan had suddenly embraced her and he was saying, "Qianfeng, I miss you. There are only the two of us now. This is a golden opportunity for us to be together. Shall we?"

    Ji Yuan was already rubbing over her so Bai Qianfeng could only shake her head weakly. She did not disagree or agree.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly embraced her to the grassy ground and called out her name softly, "Qianfeng¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded shyly as she loosened all her soul bounds on her body...

    Ji Yuan lost no time to attack her¡­

    Xiang Li had suddenly pulled Anyang as they popped outside Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she was giggling to Anyang, "Sister Qianfeng allows me to watch. Kekeke¡­"

    Anyang was flushed as Xiang Li had forced her out of Ji Yuan''s soul sea to watch this scene together for the very first time.

 Chapter 502 Prelude To The Wonderland Of The Ecstasy Island

    2 more days had passed.

    Xiao Muhan was now suffering great pain as he muttered weakly, "I am dying¡­ and even Yun Chi is not around¡­ I am so miserable¡­"

    But no one took a look in his direction.

    Ji Yuan and his group had finally arrived reached a ce between two high mountain ridges. Beyond the ridge, there was ake with a vast expanse of water and there seemed to be no limit to its waters in sight.

    A small quarry could be seen and there were at least 500 cultivators that were queuing there and a small ferry could be seen.

    Without touching the ck stele that was at the quarry, Ji Yuan knew that they had reached the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    Ji Yuan loudly proimed, "Let''s go and take a look there. It seems that we have reached the middle final trial now and there is even a trial that is waiting for us."

    Feng Minyue quickly said, "Let''s ignore that ce. It is too crowded and it is unlikely that we will be able to find any lucky urrences."

    Mo Bei began tough weakly, "Haha, I do agree with Maiden Feng here."

    Ji Yuan began to look at them with some suspicions, "It seem to me that the two of you already know this ce that we are going?"

    Feng Minyue turned flustered immediately, "I¡­ don''t know anything about this ce!"

    Mo Bei protested immediately, "No, no. Of course no. Not at all¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to growl, "I am sure that you have been to that ce. Hmm weird¡­"

    He was actually thinking: Didn''t Yun Chi says I won''t be able to return from that ce? Howe they are able to return from that ce?

    The sudden protest of Feng Minyue and Mo Bei had caused Ling Feiyue, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Qin Shuang to be curious about the wondend by the quarry.

    Even Bai Qianfeng was thinking that the ce was not as dangerous as supposed since even Feng Minyue and Mo Bei could return from it.

    Dream Mist was saying all of a sudden, "This ind is full of anomalies. Even I can''t see through it. I need to check this ce out."

    She was thinking: So this is Ectasy Ind? The ce that Yun Chi had mentioned just before she had left?

    Ji Yuan said casually, "This ind is actually called Ectasy Ind."

    All of a sudden Mo Bei had grabbed Ji Yuan and he was cursing loudly, "You rascal! You really have been to that ce!"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly as he broke free from Mo Bei, "Senior, 500 years ago I was just a baby and not even a golden celestial. How do I go to that ce? But from the look of it, you seem to have visited that ce before?"

    Mo Bei was suddenly looking very awkwardly, "Hahaha, I was¡­ only joking with you. Of course, I have never been to that ce."

    Feng Minyue said to Ji Yuan and her golden eyes were pleading to him, "I don''t know who is the person that has told you about that ce. But you mustn''t go there. Alright?"

    Ji Yuan answered frankly, "Yun Chi is there. I want to look for her there."

    Feng Minyue was startled and she looked extremely shocked, "This¡­ this impossible. You are not lying?"

    Even Mo Bei was shocked, "It shouldn''t be. That Yun Chi looks so innocent. Bute to think of this, she is always dressing so indecent¡­"

    Before Mo Bei could finish, he could suddenly see Qin Shuang''s angry looks so he quickly said. "Junior Ji Yuan, if you insist on going there, I can''t stop you. But Qin Shuang and I are definitely not going there. I shall see you in other parts of the final trial."

    With that he was really biding Ji Yuan his farewell!<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan was shocked that his farewell was so sudden.

    Even though Ji Yuan did not like Mo Bei to be around him in the trial but he was now used to seeing Mo Bei that he was like an old friend to him.

    Mo Bei had suddenly grabbed Xiao Muhan, "You are not going to that ce, either."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "Why can''t I go?"

    Mo Bei did not reason with him as he grabbed him away, "Because I have said so!"

    Naturally Xiao Muhan a mere saint was not a match for a great saint like Mo Bei. Also, Xiao Muhan was really weak now.

    With that Mo Bei had sped off with Xiao Muhan and Qin Shuang.

    Qin Shuang barely had the time to say farewell to everyone before she was taken away by Mo Bei hastily.

    Ji Yuan began to look at the rest of his group, "Who else is going with me?"

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were naturally going to follow Ji Yuan, no matter what.

    Even Feng Minyue just nodded shyly, "I will follow you."

    Ji Yuan looked at the seven maidens and said aloud, "Let''s go to have a look then. We are just there to look for Yun Chi. As long as we stick together, no harm will befall us."

    He sighed briefly as hemented, "At the start of the final trial, we have such a big group. Now we are down to just the 8 of us."

    But he was soon grinning to his group, "Anyway in case if there is a danger, just use your golden talisman..."

    Feng Minyue rolled her eyes and reminded him, "You don''t have any golden talisman anymore."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly; he had used up his golden tailsman too soon at the beginning of the trial.

    Soon they were down at the quarry.

    First thing that they did was to touch the ck stele for more information. Ites to no surprise that this was the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    The ck stele actually have another message for everyone and that was to enjoy heartily on Ecstasy Ind with no inhibitions.

    When Ji Yuan and his group had joined the queue at the quarry, many of the cultivators were already looking at their group and they all had a weird look.

    Also even as they queued, they were quickly joined by another 150 cultivators and most of them seemed to be in a hurry to join the queue here and they were disinterested in the other trials.

    The newbies were very obvious for they were touching the ck stele for more information while most of the cultivators could not even be bothered.

    It suddenly dawned upon Ji Yuan that many of the cultivators actually know that they were newbies and were looking at them with a smile.

    All of a sudden he had a bad feeling about this...

    He suddenly felt like he wanted to swim over to his destination immediately. The problem was he did not know how to swim. The only time he could swim was because he was trying to impress Feng Minyue the first time he had met her and had pretended that he could swim with his mind over matter by holding his breath.

    His second time, was with Yun Chi when they fallen into the deep and rushing waters; his mind over matter just did not work anymore because Yun Chi had kicked him hard underwater and had caused him to lose his breath.

 Chapter 503 Wonderland Of The Ecstasy Island

    Ji Yuan and his group did not wait for too long before they could board a ferry to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    There were in fact, many ferries.

    Their ferry was manned by only a man who asked them, "A person or a group."

    When Ji Yuan saw this ferryman, he was startled for he was a mere mortal man.

    Can mortal evene to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the first ce?!

    Feng Minyue was flushing and she was ncing downward while saying to the ferryman, "Group." Then she said to Ji Yuan and the rest, "Let''s board the ferry immediately."

    Even the other maidens except for Bai Qianfeng and Dream Mist were all looking uneasy.

    Ji Yuan did not disagree with Feng Minyue as he was now getting an uneasy feeling now because he felt like he was being greened by all the surrounding cultivators.

    The ferry itself was notrge but could easily amodate 10-12 people easily.

    When they were onboard the ferry, Little Princess had suddenly grabbed Ji Yuan and pointed at an insidious sign that was hidden inside the dark woods of the ferry. She looked startled and whispered to Ji Yuan, "This is a symbol of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Only the Citadel Lords and the Evil Cultivation Master know about this symbol. Not even the elders and grand elders. How can it possible be here?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly smiled, "Maybe this ce is really the den of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    He did not tell Little Princess that Yun Chi was actually one of the three founders of this ce.

    Soon the ferry hadnded along with many other ferries on a beautiful ind.

    This ind lookedrge and there were many docks and beautiful buildings; it was like a big city.

    Ji Yuan took a quick look and he was shocked that there were many mortals in the ce and he was bewildered like many of hispanions except for Feng Minyue since this was not her first time.

    He could not helpmenting, "Why is it that they are so many mortals here?"

    In the Celestial Realm, mortals are those that are below the fifth realm and they had not formed their golden eyes and golden skeletons. A vast majority of the cultivators in the Celestial Realm are actually the mortal cultivators and golden celestials are like the overlords in the Celestial Realm.

    It is said that once a cultivator reached the fifth realm golden celestial level, they are the superior cultivators and overlords of the mortal cultivators. When they had reached the sixth realm golden supremacy level, they will be arrogant for they ruled over the fifth realm golden realm cultivators. When they have reached the seventh realm golden saint level, they will be lofty because they will look down upon the rest of the golden celestials.

    That is why arge majority of the golden supremacies in the Celestial Realm had an arrogant young master attitude and Ji Yuan was not an exception.

    Ji Yuan was not an exceptional cultivator among the powerful celestial influences but he was still an exceptional cultivator who had reached the golden supremacy level earlier than most of his peers in his poor region which wascking in spiritual auras.

    He had feasted, drink, gambled, raid tombs, hunting deste monsters and go for trials when his mood suited him. In his poor region, all the golden supremacies had only one rule and that they were kings of the world.

    No saints would ever visit their poor regions and even a single saint was like a powerful influence in their poor regions.

    The only saint friend that Ji Yuan knew was Xiao Muhan but he was actually weaker than Ji Yuan in terms ofbat ability so Ji Yuan did not have a good impression of the other saints in the richer regions.

    All his troubles started when he had offended the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue by ident a hundred years old and then he had also discovered that he had also offended Ling Feiyue by ident as well.

    He was actually thinking; what if he had disappeared for a hundred years then ording to the rules of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, they should forgive his rudeness right? But a hundred year of istion was too much for him so he had decided to try to forcibly breakthrough to the saint level. Halfway through his breakthrough, he had suddenly realized that it was actually harder than he had thought; he did not have any cultivation resources and that there was something wrong with the iplete cultivation methods that he was hoping to depend upon.

    When he had suddenly thought that his Jiajia would be with another man if he died and that he would be greened, a wave of conviction overwhelmed him and he got his breakthrough profound strength once more.

    Therefore he had spent one hundred years clinging onto the divine sword that Jiajia had given him as his only spiritual support and had finally breakthrough to the half-step saint level.

    As he had long finished all his profound pills and being dirt poor, he had to suck his thumb to be the weakest saint ever to step out of the cultivation chamber. While the other half-step saint would be cultivating their profound strength with profound pills and the rich spiritual auras of their mountains to consolidate their cultivation level, Ji Yuan was forced to end his seclusion early and to look around for spiritual profound pills to aid in his recovery.

    Unfortunately, in his haste for a breakthrough and without a lot of cultivation resources to aid him, he had lost his poor beard in the process.

    Since he did not want people to know that he was such a disgraceful saint, he decided to suppress his cultivation realm. Luckily for him, he had kept a mystic skill that he had stolen from Little Princess as a trump card and he could hide his golden eyes. In everyone eyes, he was now Yuan Ji the mortal cultivator instead of Ji Yuan the Saint.

    Although his profound strength was that of a mortal cultivator but it was almost impossible for any mortal cultivator to actually injured his golden body and to kill him for a saint golden body and recovery was extremely resilient whenpared to a golden supremacy golden body.

    Ji Yuan thoughts had now returned to the docks as he weakly said, "We are all golden celestials here and these are mortals? Can we even die in this ce? Moreover we are all saints here."

    Feng Minyue quickly grabbed onto his arm and said, "Ji Yuan, we can still turn back now. Don''t go into the city. It isn''t a good ce for us to go¡­"<sub> </sub>

    "No, we must enter the city." Dream Mist had suddenly interrupted her. "The obscurews are really strange and even I cannot prate it. I am curious to know what is inside."

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the hordes of cultivators that had quickly disembarked from the ferries and they seemed to be making a beeline to the city.

    Many of the cultivators were even looking at their group and were heard saying:

    "You will surely enjoy your time here."

    "I will see youter, Hahaha¡­"

    "This is the ce that I have been waiting for the past 500 years. I am finally back now¡­"

    "This time I have brought many high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw that even the female cultivators had an excited look as they sped to the city.

    This was too weird to him¡­

    But when he had thought that Yun Chi was inside the city, he had made up his mind. "I am going inside the city. I shall go in alone with Dream Mist. The rest of you can stay here at the dock first¡­"

    "No, I will go with you." It was Feng Minyue who had said that and her reply surprised Ji Yuan.

    Even Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue were looking at him with a strong conviction as they said, "Even though we don''t know what is in the city and it is giving us an uneasy vibe but we are all your consorts so we should follow you."

    Ji Yuan nodded to them as he said slowly, "Well then¡­ we shall enter the city then."

    As they approached the city, invisible spiritualws began to form around them and were gathering into their soul core.

    The words of the spiritualws were:

    "Wee to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind¡­"

    "This is the City of Bliss¡­"

    "No one is allowed to reveal what is in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind to anyone outside of this ce. This will be written into your soul core¡­"

    "Not even in the rest of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth are you allowed to reveal what is inside the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind save its name¡­"

    "No one is allowed to fight inside or to kill anyone or else your cultivation core will be ruined¡­"

    "No one is allowed to interfere in the fun activities of the others or else your cultivation core will be ruined¡­"

    "No one is allowed to speak of the Extreme Bliss Colosseum to anyone by any means, not here nor outside¡­"

    Ji Yuan was now staring nkly at the spiritualws of this wondend as he muttered, "No one can even speak of this ce outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? They can only speak of this ce when they are here? And no fighting?! What is this Extreme Bliss Colosseum ce?"

    Dream Mist was also saying quietly, "There must be something in this ce. The cultivation resources that they have put into this ce is truly unbelievable. I can''t even sense beyond this city."

    Ji Yuan asked her curiously, "Cultivation resources?"

    Dream Mist answered quietly, "Such as powerful profound treasures. There are many saint level profound artefacts in this ce and even an emperor ss profound artefect."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "Saint level profound treasures?!" He had never heard of saint level profound treasure before except for his saint-step divine sword and what the heck is an emperor ss profound artefact?

    Even Bai Qianfeng were stammering as she looked at Dream Mist, "Just who are you? How did you even know about the emperor ss profound artefact?"

    But Dream Mist merely said, "All profound treasures have a ranking. They are half-step, mortal-step, earth-step, heaven-step, celestial-step, immortal-step, saint-step, emperor-step and sacred-step."

    Bai Qianfeng were stunned, "There is even a sacred grade?!" She was an immortal and yet she did not know that a sacred level could actually exist.

    Dream Mist nodded but did not give any rifications as she walked away; she did not tell anyone that Xiang Li was actually at the half-sacred level.

 Chapter 504 Bliss City (1) R18

    Bliss City, Inside the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    When Ji Yuan had entered Bliss City, he was literally speechless even though he had thought that his vignce was high enough.

    It was not.

    Along the city streets, he could see there were many vendors that were selling portraits of the naked maidens in manypromised positions.

    All the maidens including Dream Mist were actually flushing now.

    Ji Yuan muttered softly, "This is¡­"

    "No, you are not going to buy any of these." Ling Feiyue had suddenly said.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I was going to say that this is ridiculous. I''ve never said I am going to buy these paintings¡­

    Yang Mi who was smiling throughout was now really flushed as she urged Ji Yuan, "Let''s go elsewhere. This ce is too lewd."

    The rest of the maidens quickly agreed and so did Ji Yuan.

    As Ji Yuan walked past the vendors, he could not resist asking one of the vendors. "How much is one?"

    But before he could get an answer, he was quickly punched by Yu Jingjing and Ling Feiyue before he was pulled away in a hurry.

    Soon they hade to another part of the city where there were many pavilions and this time, they were truly shocked.

    It was because they could see that there were hundreds of golden celestials in this ce and they were all almost half-naked or naked.

    The first to be most shocked were Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi, causing them to tremble uncontrobly for they had quickly spotted their Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping in one of the faraway pavilions.

    Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping waspletely naked and there were three naked men that were ying with her. She looked hungry and thirsty with lust but she was enjoying herself tremendously.

    Ji Yuan had actually wanted to go forward to attack Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping when he found out that he had no profound strength. He had realized that this was the spiritualw of this ce; no one is allowed to attack another.

    Little Princess saw his looks and caught hold of his left arm before saying, "They are not her living furnace. It seems that the evil dual cultivation is impossible to use in this ce."

    She was perplexed.

    If this ce was the den of the Evil Cultivation Pce, why were the dark arts of the Evil Cultivation Pce being restricted here?

    So Ji Yuan began to look the other way now and that was a mistake.

    He had suddenly saw a peerless naked maiden who was ying with a zither. She was in a transparent top so her naked upper body was actually in visible view. There were two men that were with her, one front and one back.

    She was so astonishing beautiful that Ji Yuan could not believe that she was wasting her body just like this and there were even 8 male cultivators that were waiting for her.

    He could hear her saying to the waiting cultivators, her looks and voice was really peerless like a fairy. "Today, I am only able to take at most 2 at a time or else I will surely break."

    Even Ji Yuan was moved by her looks but he could not stand a maiden that would green him so his heart would only take pity on her.

    Yu Jingjing was trembling nonstop, "She is my¡­ Ancient matriarch Zhi Jiugong. She had never used the ''Jing'' character in her name because she is our founder¡­"

    Yang Mi was bleary too, "We have only seen her portrait in our Holy Oracle Sect but never the real person. Even then a mere portrait of hers is not enough to hide her peerless fairy looks. Why is she in this ce¡­"

    Little Princessmented softly, "All of them seem to be willing partners. I can''t find a single taint on them."

    Although Yu Jingjing had heard Little Princess but she still turned to say to Ji Yuan, "My lord, you must help her. The heaven-step divine zither that you have given me is actually hers in the first ce. She is my ancient matriarch. I can''t allow her to sink to depravity in this ce."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly: I can''t use beat anyone up in this ce. What can you expect me to do in this ce?

    Xiang Li giggled with lust as she secretly said to Ji Yuan in the soul sea: That''s easy. We can use negotiations. You can use your manly charms to negotiate with her to give up on her vice.

    Ji Yuan had almost choked when he had heard Xiang Li: I am not a duck and I don''t know how to swim.

    Although Ji Yuan was saying that to Xiang Li but Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi business were also his own. So when he suddenly saw that the two men who were ying with Zhi Jiugong were getting up, he immediately flew to her side and said, "Are you Maiden Zhi Jiugong? We need to talk."

    Zhi Jiugong was still struggling to support herself with her soft hands on the pavilion table when Ji Yuan had approached her. Her coquettish and sexy legs were opened widely in his direction as well.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly staring at her widely opened coquettish legs and he had suddenly realized he had made a bad mistake in his arrival timing¡­

    Zhi Jiugong was humming coldly when she had heard Ji Yuan approaching steps but she did not look at her, "Do you not know the rules here? Not only do you need to queue for your turn but you have to pay me 10 million high grade spirit stones for an hour of service."

    Ji Yuan was shocked: 10 million high grade spirit grade stones?! This is daylight robbery¡­ but then¡­ with her devil body and looks, she definitely deserves this¡­."<sub> </sub>

    The cultivators that were queuing behind Ji Yuan were all scolding and cursing him now for cutting the queue.

    "Who is this upstart?"

    "He didn''t even queue¡­"

    "He looks poor. Can he even afford 10mil high grade spirit stones?!"

    Zhi Jiugong had suddenly turned her face to look at Ji Yuan.

    All of a sudden she was flushing, "Who is this beautiful cultivator? Are you here to enjoy yourself?"

    Before Ji Yuan could reply her, the 8 angry cultivators that were queuing were all scolding Ji Yuan.

    Zhi Jiugong had suddenly interrupted them as she said coldly, "No one can interrupt the fun of the others here. Have you forgotten the rule? Right now, I am having fun talking to this beautiful cultivator here."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he was hovering his eyes all over her, "I erm¡­ cannot be described as a beautiful cultivator but a handsome cultivator¡­what is my name?"

    He was so enthralled by her that he had forgotten what his name was. Or rather, he was actually focusing on her body and he was afraid that this may be the end of their conversations so he was trying to prolong it.

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were now at Ji Yuan''s side. The rest of the maidens had decided that they would watch from afar since this was none of their business and moreover they were grossed by the two naked men that were at the pavilion.

    When Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had arrived, they too were startled by Zhi Jiugong''s nakedness but it appeared that she did not seem to mind at all.

    Yu Jingjing quickly pay her humble respect, "Ancient¡­I am the present Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing and this is Yang Mi, my Holy Oracle Maiden¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong interrupted her with a wry smile as she swallowed up the sticky stuff that was on her lips, "You have wanted to acknowledge me as your ancient matriarch but you seem to have changed your mind all of a sudden because you did not want anyone to know of my identity, am I right?"

    Yu Jingjing just nodded and did not disagree.

    Zhi Jiugongughed and herughter was soft and beautiful like music, "Yes, I am Ancient Matriarch Zhi Jiugong of the Holy Oracle Sect and I am the one that have imparted my divine profound art to you. I am not worried about my reputation because all these men here know that I am a whore and some of them have even yed with me on many asions."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were truly shocked when they had heard her proiming to them about her deeds without any shame.

    Zhi Jiugong chuckled, "But I am truly happy here and that is why I have never left this ce to return to the Holy Oracle Sect."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were shocked that this was the reason.

    Zhi Jiugong was smiling as she examined them, "It seems that the two of you have lost your pure primeval yin already. To this man? Or to this ce? Actually I do not care. But since you are here, let me tell you a secret of our Holy Oracle Divine Skill."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were both looking perplexedly at each other: A secret?

    Zhi Jiugong giggled alluringly, "The Holy Oracle Divine Skill demands your fullest chastity to drive its divine profound power to its fullest. Naturally such a profound power alsoes at a price. Once you have lost your chastity, you will be forever be thinking of your man or other men. This is the hidden restriction for such a divine profound power. However this isn''t bad too. Throughout the years, I have discovered a way to create the Unholy Oracle Divine Skill. Will the two of you be willing to learn this divine skill from me?"

    Yu Jingjing firmly said as she took out her heaven-step divine zither, "No thanks. I will never be like you. This is your divine weapon and today, I shall be returning this divine zither to you!"

    Yang Mi was also saying firmly, "I only want to be with my lord Ji Yuan here. I am not interested in other men. So farewell!"

    Zhi Jiugong did not lose her temper as she took back the heaven-step divine zither to examine it, "It seems a little broken. It still works as a weapon but I am afraid its music is not as beautiful as it is before."

    Yu Jingjing looked a little awkward for she was the one that had smashed this heaven-step divine zither in a fit of rage when she had thought that Ji Yuan was viting Yang Mi.

    She quickly said, "The condition is already like this when I had found it."

    When Ji Yuan had heard, he really did not know whether to cry orugh.

    Zhi Jiugong had suddenly turned to Ji Yuan with a smile, "You are Ji Yuan?"

    She had just heard from Yang Mi that Ji Yuan was her man and had guessed that the beautiful man that was talking to her was Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Since you are unrepented, this is the end of our conversation then."

    Zhi Jiugongughed like the blooming flower, "Although you sound cold but your eyes are not honest at all."

    She had been following Ji Yuan''s eyes for a long time and she knew that Ji Yuan was admiring her in secret.

    But she merely said without any shame, "We shall meet again and the next time, it will not be free and I shall charge you a fee."

    Ji Yuan turned back with a shock and he was looking miserable, "You mean this is free this time?"

    Zhi Jiugong merely smiled and said, "I shall see you at the Extreme Bliss Colosseum."

 Chapter 505 Bliss City (2) R18

    When Ji Yuan, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had returned to their group, Ji Yuan could see that several cultivators were already surrounding Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Dream Mist.

    Ling Feiyue was telling them angrily, "Good dogs do not block the way!"

    In this ce, they were also helpless against these cultivators because they could not force them away.

    "Maidens, you are all so beautiful. Shall we copte?"

    "We want to see your naked bodies..."

    "This ce is a ce of endless passions and no one will ever know about our deeds..."

    "How about a group coption party together..."

    But as soon as Ji Yuan had arrived, he began to shout angrily. "These maidens are not having fun with you!"

    Ling Feiyue caught on very fast as she shouted in her soft voice, "We are not having fun at all. Get lost!"

    All of a sudden the cultivators were pushed away by a hidden force and they had all sustained heavy injuries as the spiritualw of thew began to punish them!

    Ji Yuan and their group had quickly discovered the hiddenw to hurt people!

    The injured cultivators quickly realized that they were messing with the wrong group and they had quickly fled the scene.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Dream Mist had turned to look at Ji him and there was a soft glimmering look in her eyes: So this is the way to affect the mysticw here.

    Ji Yuan had discovered that Feng Minyue was sobbing now so he approached her and asked her quietly, "What is wrong?"

    Feng Minyue sobbed, "I''ve actually found my best friend in this ce..."

    Ji Yuan followed Feng Minyue''s eyes to a misty pavilion and on top of it, was another peerless beautiful maiden who was naked and she was being surrounded by four naked men.

    He could not help asking her, "Who is she? She is really beautiful."

    Feng Minyue had suddenly sped toward the misty pavilion!

    Ji Yuan shouted to the rest, "Stay here! Let me check on Maiden Feng on my own!"

    In a short while they had reached the misty pavilion.

    It was difficult to reach this pavilion for it was high on the side on the mountain but it was not an issue for Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue.

    Therefore the four men above must all be saints and above.

    Even before they had arrived, they could hear endless lewd moans above.

    When Feng Minyue had arrived, she began to sob softly. "Ye Jing, why are you here?"

    This beautiful and peerless maiden was actually Ye Jing and this shocked Ji Yuan.

    He had heard that Ye Jing was the number one heroine and a stunning beauty in the Nine Celestial Fraternity in recent years. But 500 years ago, she had disappeared in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. She was actually here?

    In recent years, he had heard of two astonishing great beauties of the Nine Celestial Fraternity. One was naturally the Great Heroine Saintess Ye Jing and the another one was the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. But both great beauties seemed to have disappeared now.

    This left Ji Yuan''s heart a little sour because he had hoped to catch their graces in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but it was no longer possible.

    That was what he had thought.

    Now that the stunning Ye Jing was in front of him, moreover she was naked and was covered thickly with primeval yang from the four naked cultivators.

    When Ye Jing saw Feng Minyue, she looked startled but soon she had quicklyposed herself as she said to the four men. "The fun is over. Please leave."

    How could the men spare such a great stunning beauty?

    But even if they wanted to say no, it was impossible because they could feel that their soul core was being crushed down.

    So they quickly picked up their clothes and had reluctantly left the scene.

    One of the cultivators could not resist sneering coldly at Ji Yuan, "Just you watch. I will kill you!"

    Ji Yuanpletely ignored him because he was looking at Ye Jing instead.

    Ye Jing was also smiling frivolously at Ji Yuan, "Who is this handsome man? Is he here to y too?"

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "I am Ji Yuan."

    Feng Minyue asked again, "Ye Jing why are you here? Stop this please. You are only degenerating yourself. Did you do it on your own free will? Please tell me who is forcing you?"

    Ye Jing looked really sorrow before she suddenly giggled at Feng Minyue, "Sister Saintess Feng, how can you say that? Of course I did it of my own free will."

    Then she said slowly, "500 years ago... after I''ve lost my lord consort, I''vee alone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and to this ce. I have thought that with my cultivation attainment, I would have nothing to fear from the evil of this ce. But I am so wrong. I had wanted to bust this evil ce but had failed utterly."

    Now Feng Minyue was smart so she asked, "Where did you fall from grace?"

    Ye Jing said beautifully, "It is in the Extreme Bliss Colosseum."

    Ji Yuan knew of the mysticws of this ce and he knew that Ye Jing would not be able to give them any info or hints. So he said, "This must be the most dangerous ce in this trial. It seems to me that it must be the ce where Zhi Jiugong wants me to go as well."

    Ye Jing nodded and her naked body was trembling; she did not care about her shame nor did she want to cover herself up now.<sub> </sub>

    She began to say quietly, "You must never trust Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. They are not what they are seemed."

    Ji Yuan muttered and he staring nkly, "I know who Zhi Jiugong is. The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu is also here?!"

    As Ye Jing nodded, there was a sudden shout below in the distant garden pavilion which was more majestic than most.

    Many cultivators were shouting with shock over there, "50 million high grade spirit stones? He can actually afford it for just one session?!"

    A cultivator was now holding onto a peerless delightful maiden in both his arms and he was now ripping off her clothes.

    Ji Yuan had looked below and he was shocked that the rich cultivator was actually Lin Antian and he was looking extremely haggard.

    He could not help himself by saying, "He is so freaking rich?!"

    This peerless delightful maiden was still giggling as her jaded body was being exposed but she did not mind at all. Even after her panties were ripped, she was still delightful.

    Ji Yuan had never seen such a lovely maiden that was constantly looking so delightful and he was curiously to know her name.

    Ye Jing seemed to know his thoughts and said quietly, "She is the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu."

    Feng Minyue could not help gasping, "She is so lovely...no wonder he is willing to pay 50 million high grade spirit stones for her."

    Ye Jing said quietly, "She knows how to choose her victim carefully."

    Ji Yuan was actually very hard below and he was trying his best to take away his eyes from the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. Even Ye Jing was also an astonishing beauty but when the Lovely Empress had appeared, she began to pale inparison. Even though Zhi Jiugong was only second in temptation to him but she had also paled in front of this Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. She is a nature born ything.

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly, "Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong must be the two most peerless maidens in this ce. Since Zhi Jiugong is also the ancient matriarch of her Holy Oracle Sect and she is so ancient, it is not wrong to assume that she is a great saintess and even a peaked great saintess."

    Ye Jing nodded quietly, "She is indeed a peaked great saintess."

    Ji Yuan could not understand how a peaked great saintess like Zhi Jiugong would allow herself to be yed by men that are not her equals and he could see that there was no remorse in her eyes. She was even enjoying it.

    He quickly asked, "The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu must have a lower cultivation since she is so much younger than you."

    Ye Jing quietly said, "You''re wrong. She is also a peaked great saintess. Her talent for cultivation is monstrous."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    How can this be possible?!

    Ye Jing said, "You should not have any mercy against them, not that you can attack them here. They seemed to have only one goal in their eyes; that is earning the high grade spirit stones and to obtain whatever profound treasures that they cany their hands on. This by itself, is a little too highly unusual."

    Ji Yuan asked, "What is so weird about it? Isn''t it the nature of all the cultivators?"

    Ye Jing smiled slowly, "Excluding their arsenal of profound treasures, they have literally billions of high grade spirit stones and yet they have never thought of leaving this ce?"

    Ji Yuan began to blink his eyes, "Erm... I don''t mind if they are willing to buy my high maintenance sect..."

    When talking about billions, Ji Yuan had already lost count on how rich Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Ancient Matriarch Zhi Jiugong were.

    Ji Yuan respectfully said, "Senior Maiden Ye. Thank you for these tips. I will surely bust their den to free you from this ce."

    Ye Jing hummed softly as though she did not believe in Ji Yuan, "I wish you good luck then."

    Ji Yuan nodded and he had raised his arms, "Farewell Senior Maiden Ye."

    Ye Jing had suddenly rolled her alluring golden eyes to stop him, "Beware of the Smiling Divine Maiden."

    Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue were both looking with a stunned look at each other.

    Ye Jing slowly exined, "She is by far the most dangerous and she seems to be their boss. In front of her, I am afraid that even Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong can only be considered her maids."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Can you tell me more about her?"

    Ye Jing said, "I can''t. Farewell."

    Therefore Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue were forced to leave the mountain pavilion.

    As they jumped down to the ground, Ji Yuan whispered to Feng Minyue, "I am afraid that Senior Sister Ye is under controlled like a puppet."

    Feng Minyue was startled, "How do you know?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "This is my instinct. Although their cultivation soul cores aren''t tainted on the surface, they must all have fallen under the mysticws of this ce. They are all puppets of a higher power. All we need to do is to find that higher power and to bust this ce."

    Feng Minyue muttered, "But we haven''t got a clue who is running this ce?"

    Ji Yuan answered her, "But first we got to find Yun Chi first."

    Feng Minyue had suddenly caught hold of Ji Yuan, "You must find Yun Chi immediately. This ce isn''t meant for her to roam. I don''t want anything to happen to her."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly: Shall I tell you that Yun Chi is one of the higher powers here?

 Chapter 506 Bliss City (3) R18

    After Ji Yuan and Feng Minyue had left, Ye Jing was left to ponder nkly over her flight as she began to recall the events that had happened 500 years ago.

    500 years ago, she had indeed stepped into the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind to bust this evil ce which had existed for thousands of unknown years.

    The Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind was an anomaly and even the trial spirits did not know that it had existed. Therefore it was right to say that it was not part of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    When she had first arrived in this ce, she was as shocked as Ji Yuan.

    There were many other heroines and heroes from her celestial fraternity that were in this ce. They were equally shocked to see her.

    Many of the heroines and heroes were involved in dirty affairs in this ce and this shocked Ye Jing greatly.

    Some even had an incestuous rtionship with each other!

    She had tried to avoid these past acquaintances as much as possible but this city was still too small as she kept bumping into them.

    Many of them were even trying to hook up on her by saying lewd things to her.

    She was flustered by them but she had ignored them all.

    This ce was supposed to be a paradise for the unorthodox cultivators but to her surprise, there was an equally number of orthodox cultivators.

    Under the secret mysticw of this ce that prevent secrets and identities from leaking out, there were no orthodox and unorthodox cultivators. There were only male and female cultivators.

    This ce also had another great secret; when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had ended, all the golden celestials were supposed to be sent to their ce of origin, back to one of the 47 Empyrean Gates.

    However those that chose to stay in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind would be allowed to stay for this was the only permanent wondend of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    For those that stay, they could still carry on their amorous lifestyle and they could only leave once the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was opened once more. However, the dark secret within prevented most of the cultivators from leaving and would anchor them into the Wondend of the Ecstasy itself.

    Because this ce was a permanent wondend, there were also many mortals that were birthed from the inhabitants that were in this ce.

    Ye Jing was one of the cultivators to have fallen to this ce because she had entered the Extreme Bliss Colosseum to bust the evil influence that she had felt.

    When she had entered the Extreme Bliss Colosseum, she saw rows of seats around a tform and thousands of cultivators had already gathered in this ce.

    There were eight mortal male and female dancers that were dded sexily and they were dancing for the amusements of the guests until the show could start.

    The dressing on them immediately caused Ye Jing to redden and she had averted her eyes as she quickly entered the colosseum to look for a seat.

    As soon as she had entered the ce, the mysticws of the ce had informed her that all the cultivators could not leave this ce once the show had started and that they must finish the show. They were also not allowed to touch each other until the show was over.

    Ye Jing had thought: What a weird rule. What is so dangerous about this ce?

    The mysticws sounded like it was there to protect all the cultivators. She was actually expecting an evil cultivator to address everyone.

    Why were there so many cultivators in this ce?

    Half of the cultivators had actually never been to the Extreme Bliss Colosseum before and like Ye Jing, this was their very first time and they were curious.

    Frankly speaking, Ye Jing had never expected to see so many cultivators that had gathered together in the final trial except for this ce.

    But even before she could seat herself, she was greatly embarrassed for quite a few of the cultivators had recognized her.

    Because she was a great beauty, many of the cultivators were even looking lecherously at her.

    "Isn''t this the number one heroine in the Nine Celestial Fraternity? She is also here?"

    "Ye Jing is also here¡­"

    "What a surprise!"

    Two ugly unorthodox cultivators had also approached Ye Jing and they were grinning, "It is good to have thepany of the great heroine Ye Jing with us."

    When Ye Jing saw them, she was naturally unhappy to see them because she had bashed them once before.

    But this time they were not afraid and were even excited.

    They even said, "It seems that we have the chance to defile our goddess today."

    Ye Jing immediately rebuked them angrily, "Get away from me or I won''t be polite to you anymore."

    But the two ugly unorthodox cultivators justughed as they continued to admire her figure.

    Because Ye Jing was a stunning beauty, she was in a limelight and many hundreds of cultivators were actually looking at her.

    Ye Jing was feeling ufortable now but without seeing what the Extreme Bliss Colosseum was about, she had no way to use her divine sense to find out about the mysterious array in this ce.

    For many days now, she had roamed Bliss City in futility and this ce seemed to be the most suspicious. And today, this ce was finally opening.

    A young mortal maiden with arge bosom, dded only in a white short toga had stepped onto the tform to say, "The show will begin soon."

    Immediately, the sexy dancers were all dispersing like the winds when they had heard her.

    The same young mortal maiden was smiling, "Today we shall have Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue to be on the stage."

    Half of the cultivators who were not first timers were all gasping with shock and surprise, "It is really her? She ising to stage?"<sub> </sub>

    The other half had no idea who she was, including Ye Jing.

    A peerless and coquettish maiden was the first to have stepped on the tform from behind the stage curtains behind. She was smiling alluringly and everyone could see that she was just wearing a transparent top that could show the full view of her tight bosoms and also her lower body; she did not have wear any panties and her secluded valley would be discreetly be seen from certain angles.

    Many of the cultivators were all gasping with shock at the peerless beauty of this maiden and she was like the zing sun in the entire ce.

    "She is the Smiling Divine Maiden?"

    "Her smiles are so beautiful¡­"

    "She is indeed peerless¡­"

    "No, she isn''t the Smiling Divine Maiden¡­"

    The young mortal maiden on the tform smiled, "This is Zhi Jiugong, she is but a mere maid to the Smiling Divine Maiden."

    Even Ye Jing was moved by the great beauty of this Zhi Jiugong and she was quite startled that she was not the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Many of the cultivators were as shocked as Ye Jing and had thought that she was actually the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Another peerless maiden had appeared and her loveliness began to grace everyone. She too, was wearing a transparent top like Zhi Jiugong.

    If anyone thought that Zhi Jiugong was beautiful and regal enough, this maiden hadpletely upset their idea of beauty.

    And when she chuckles softly, all the male cultivators were pulled into her astonishing loveliness and the sexuality of her jade body. They could even see that her bosoms were jumping lightly and they were all hardened.

    Her shyness and lovely coquettish demeanor simply had no equal among all the maidens presented.

    "I want to copte with her now¡­"

    "Her great beauty has no equal¡­"

    "She must be the Smiling Divine Maiden?!"

    "No, she isn''t¡­"

    "I''ve never seen her before¡­"

    "She is the¡­"

    The young mortal maiden on the tform nodded and smiled her before announcing, "Today is only her first appearance. She is the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. As some of you may have already known, she is one of the two peerless great beauties in the Nine Celestial Fraternity. And she is also a chaste maiden."

    When the male cultivators had heard her, they were all gasping with shock that she was still a chaste maiden in this ce?

    The young mortal maiden on the tform smiled, "After the show is over, we will parade her chastity to the highest bidder. The minimum bid will be 99 million high grade spirit stones and each bid cannot be less than 1 million high grade spirit stones."

    "99 million high grade spirit stones? Isn''t that too much?"

    "It can buyout even a middle influence celestial sect¡­"

    One male cultivator was suddenly shouting, "100 million!"

    Another male cultivator was suddenly shouting, "200 million!"

    "250 million!" Another male cultivator was suddenly shouting.

    There were many mad bids because these rich cultivators were all eager to copte with the greatest beauty of one of the major celestial fraternity. Who would not want to?

    The young mortal maiden on the tform began to chuckle, "This is not the auction house. You can bid for herter."

    With that she had silenced everyone.

    Ye Jing was trembling nonstop. She had of course recognized who the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was and even though people had put them as two peerless beauties together but the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was actually several notches above her, and even two notch above Zhi Jiugong.

    She had not expected that she would be selling her chastity in this ce?!

    And what type of a show would they be performing today?

    All of a sudden another peerless and jaded maiden had just walked into the tform. There seemed to be a divine aura on her that caused all the men and women to hold their breath for she was really too enthralling.

    She was smiling but it also seemed that she was smiling at everyone.

    And when her golden eyes moved, it seemed that she was moving her golden eyes just at them.

    There seemed to have a divine feel about her and everyone seemed to have forgotten to look at her silk apron and short skirt which showed her undies below.

    Her golden eyes began to sparkle, touching the hearts of all the cultivators be they men or women.

    If a smile could kill, then it was her smiles.

    Ye Jing could not believe such a perfect maiden would exist and she could beparable to Fan Yuqing¡­

    The young mortal maiden on the tform smiled as she introduced the main lead, "This is the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue¡­"

 Chapter 507 Bliss City (4) R18

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was smiling alluringly and her presence looked so sacred and untouchable that all the cultivators were holding their breath as they begun to watched her keenly.

    They did not think that a tall and muscr bald young-looking celestial would have suddenly appeared naked from behind her and he was tearing off her silken apron and skirt off her!

    Many of the cultivators were shocked by his sudden appearance and they had wanted to rush in to beat him but they were all being forcible held back by the mysticalws of this ce.

    "This is all a show?"

    This bald man was now gripping the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was showing her naked white bosoms to all the audience.

    As for Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress, they were watching nearby but did not do a thing.

    Then the bald man had suddenly bended the Smiling Divine Maiden to her knees and he was shing his little brother onto her face.

    His little brother was long and thick; many of the female cultivators were truly shocked to see it, including Ye Jing.

    They were all asking silently: Can she swallow it and can she handle itter?

    Many of the female cultivators were wet below and they were flushing.

    They were now watching a peerless maiden and who was their own kind getting vited by such a man of great brutal size. But none of them were able to avert their gazes, including Ye Jing.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled softly as she put her two hands on the little brother but still, her two hands were not big enough to cover it.

    As she giggled, the bald cultivator was not polite again and had immediately thrust his little brother into her mouth.

    Everyone was shocked and the male cultivators were even more shocked that their goddess were being humiliated in front of them.

    But the Smiling Divine Maiden did not seem to care as she tried to deep throat the little brother. After dozens of thrusting, burst of cream had exploded into her mouth.

    There was so much that she was not able to swallow it all that it burst through her mouth and into her face.

    p Next the bald cultivator had pulled her to a bed before he ripped her panties off before opening her legs widely for all the onlookers to look at her astonishing valley.</anda>

    Everyone was gulping now.

    In front of everyone''s eyes, the bald cultivator was now pushing his little brother into the secluded valley.

    All the cultivators could see that the Smiling Divine Maiden could not stand the thrust of his little brother that she was now moaning lewd sounds, her tightness could only be imagined by everyone.

    But the bald cultivator did not care for her pain as he began to push deeply into her while shaking her two milky tits.

    Ye Jing had a mixed reaction when she saw that this beautiful goddess was being insult in such a manner. Instead of being angry, she was now excited to see this flower being trampled upon.

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden was being trampled upon, it inspired bestiality among the men as they watched how a high and lofty divine maiden got humiliated and she was even portraying pitiful eyes on everyone that caused all the men to want to trample upon her more.

    And even the women could not let her off.

    Many of the men had taken off their pants to masturbate with their little brothers. They could no longer stand it anymore.

    Even some of the women had dropped down their skirts and were touching their little sisters...

    Ye Jing hade here to investigate the evil of this ce but now she was imagining herself to be the one that was vited by the bald man instead...

    The bald cultivation yelled aloud and he hadpletely entered into the Smiling Divine Maiden and everyone was shocked.

    Then he started the beginning of his hundreds of thrusting and he was soon cumming nonstop into her little sister and also outside.<sub> </sub>

    There was so much cum that the Smiling Divine Maiden was soon covered by his cum.

    What was more, everyone could hear the sensation lewd voice of the Smiling Divine Maiden and her waters were spraying in front of them.

    More and more male cultivators had already begun to take off their pants...

    Even more female cultivators were finding it hard to suppress their desires. They had pulled down their skirts and even their panties were not spared, exposing their nakedness to all the male cultivators nearby. But instead of shame, they did not even care and was excited by the scene in front of them.

    The bald man shouted loudly as he began to climax again and again. After another 300 thrusts and alot of cumming on her, he stopped to let the Smiling Divine Maiden to clean his little brother for him.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden passionately cleaned his little brother for everyone to see and she was really gentle as though she was helping everyone to clean their little brothers.

    Many of the male cultivators were shooting off their loads now and even more cultivators were dropping their pants.

    Even the female cultivators were hot now.

    Suddenly the bald man had left the scene, much to the disappointment of many of the female cultivators that were hoping for more acts to be performed by him.

    But as he left, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were suddenly kneeling side by side to the Smiling Divine Maiden and they were licking up all the thicky cum.

    Even a maiden like Ye Jing was hot and she was still watching with trembling legs. She knew that her panties were now all wet.

    All of a sudden five really handsome naked men had walked into the scene and they were suddenly ying with the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    They opened her jaded legs, yed with her bosoms, her little sister, her mouth and the rest of her face with their little brothers.

    The scene was too exotic to be described. No parts of the Smiling Divine Maiden were spared.

    And they yed with her for the next two hours in full frontal view of all the cultivators. Even Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress had stripped themselves naked for everyone to view them.

    Fully 95% of the cultivators that were looking had all taken off the clothes that were on their lower bodies.

    Ye Jing was feeling a lusty heat over her as she watched the scene and she was very wet. She did not know what had gone over her; she had also ripped off her skirt and her panties in full view of the male cultivators and the two male unorthodox cultivators who were watching her greedily.

    Then she began to spray forth her nectar and water...

    Everyone around Ye Jing had already undressed themselves and they were all ying with themselves.

    When the young mortal woman on the tform had suddenly announced that the show was finally over, Ye Jing was not even paying any attention because she was so hot watching the three maidens and the five naked young men...

    All of a sudden she saw that the male cultivators around her were all filled with lust and they were allunching themselves on her.

    Even the two ugly unorthodox cultivators were waiting for the show to end to feast upon their goddess and they did not hesitate at all.

    Ye Jing had tried to resist them but all her profound strength had gone to her lower body and she was powerless or rather she seemed to desire for these men to vite her. After watching the Smiling Divine Maiden getting vited, she was imagined herself to be the Smiling Divine Maiden now.

    She was not the only ones; many of the female cultivators had their clothes ripped off and they were shared between multiple partners.

    There were many pa pa pa sounds and lewd sounds!

    The entire colosseum had suddenly be a mass orgy.

    Ye Jing had suddenly cked out because this was too much for her body to bear and there were simply too many men that had wanted her body.

    As for the Smiling Divine Maiden, she was smiling in secret as she walked away. Those that lost control and had cked out would be her puppets from this day onward and could never leave the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

 Chapter 508 Bliss City (5)

    In the secret underground hall of the Bliss City;

    The Death God Mingwang had just finished checking on the cultivation treasures that wereid in front of him as he questioned in a manly voice, "Only 12.5 billion high grade spirit stones and these profound treasures?"

    He was asking the four cultivators now.

    He had gathered the two factions here today; the Death Faction and the Dragon Faction.

    The Dragon Faction was led by Steward Gu Bugu while the Death Faction was led by the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    There was a bald male cultivator in front of him and he was Steward Gu Bugu.

    Behind him were the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    They were all bending low in front of the Death God Mingwang as he was their overlord and he was also here to take away the profound treasures of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth away from the hands of the cultivators that were taking the trial.

    Steward Gu Bugu answered, "The final trial has only just started. These profound treasures are actually from the past 500 years. This year it seems that there are almost twice the usual number of golden celestials and it will be a bountiful harvest."

    The Death God Mingwang nodded slowly and he was saying to the Lovely Empress, "Jiangsu, let me examine your cultivation core to see if you have any improvements. You have only recently joined us in the past 500 years ago."

    The Lovely Empress nodded humbly and was delightfully saying, "Yes my lord."

    The Death God Mingwang did not have to touch her to examine her inner cultivation core. Instead, he probed her with his divine sense before inhaling softly. "You are really a monstrous genius. This is a huge improvement from 500 years ago."

    The Lovely Empress began to smile with great coyness, "It is because I''ve such a good master. I only want to learn from master and to learn the immortal arts."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue chuckled softly, "I think that is only her secondary reason. Her primary reason is to serve our master... in the bed chamber."

    The Lovely Empress began to giggle too and she did not deny it. "Elder Sister Lixue is bullying me again¡­ hehe¡­"

    The Death God Mingwang interrupted, "Is there anything interesting to report to me?"

    The Lovely Empress answered with a wry smile, "I was one of the two peerless beauties in the Nine Celestial Fraternity. The other one is Ye Jing and she is now our depraved ve here."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden tried to interrupt, "The new group of cultivators have some really astonishing maidens whose beauties are not beneath us. Maybe our master will like to take them in as your disciple?"

    The Death God Mingwang said quietly, "No need."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked a little shocked, "No need?"

    The Death God Mingwang nodded, "This year our Death Faction will not attend the Extreme Bliss Colosseum. I shall let the Dragon Faction to take this year lead."

    Then he turned to say to Steward Gu Bugu, "You have heard me? Your Dragon Faction will take the lead this year. You will naturally receive the greater share of your fair rewards. Now dismiss. I will now talk to my three prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    There was a look of surprise in Steward Gu Bugu look as he answered with great delight, "We shall not disappoint you!"

    Gu Bugu was still smiling as he respectfully hurried away.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was looking a little infuriated, "Master, I feel so unjust for you! The Great Demon God has no respect for you. You are the one that hase here, not the Deste Dragon God Longdi!"

    The Death God Mingwang answered nonchntly, "This isn''t the Great Demon God or anyone decision. I have decided it."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, so were Zhi Jiugong and Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as they muttered. "What is going on here?"

    The Death God Mingwang said to them, "It is time for your ascension and it is long overdue. This ce isn''t a good ce for the three of you to stay."<sub> </sub>

    The Smiling Divine Maiden were shocked, "Master, you don''t want us anymore?"

    Zhi Jiugong said shockingly, "All these years I have never ascended, that is because I want to faithfully follow master¡­"

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was stunned, "Master, I am still young and I don''t have to ascend. May I follow you to the ends of the earth?"

    The Death God Mingwang answered her, "No, you will ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm with your two other two sisters. With the three of you forming a team together, I will be more assured."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked, "Or master has a mission for us in the Immortal Divine Realm? You will like us to join the Immortal Wars?"

    The Death God Mingwang shook his head, "Your mission is just to get along well with the Pangu Immortals. You are not to do anything foolish. The three of you are not of my demonic race so after you have ascended, you will be a Pangu Immortal. Also¡­"

    He paused for a while as though he was afraid of hurting their feelings. "I''ve just taken another direct prot¨¦g¨¦. In terms of talent and beauty, she has it more than the three of you."

    A stunned Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue could no longer smile now as she said with great sadness, "So master is thinking of kicking the three of us out because she is capable of sleeping with you-"

    Paaaaaaaa!!!!

    The Death God Mingwang had suddenly sent the Smiling Divine Maiden to crush thunderously on the white celestium walls.

    This shocked Zhi Jiugong and Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who were also thinking the same as the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    The Death God Mingwang said to them coldly, "I will never touch the three of you. Not in the past or in the future."

    As the Death God Mingwang was preparing to leave, Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had suddenly caught hold of his leg and she was sobbing, "Master! I know that you may have a powerful enemy on your back, right? Please let your prot¨¦g¨¦ Jiangsu to fight alongside you. I will surely help you to kill him! Unless you tell me who he is, I will never let go of your leg!"

    The Death God Mingwang began to hum coldly, "I do have one mortal enemy that I am fated to be defeated by him. But he is someone that you will never be able to defeat because he won''t being here."

    "What is his name? I only want to know." It was Zhi Jiugong and she was holding onto the other leg of the Death God Mingwang.

    The Death God Mingwang sighed softly, "Very well. No harm in letting the three of you know. His name is Ji Yuan. Now that you have known his name, go and prepare for your ascension. I will help the three of you."

    When he had said that, he was touching his t waist again...

    With that, he had left the great hall.

    Zhi Jiugong was suddenly smiling.

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu asked unhappily, "Why are you smiling? Do you know that our master does not want us anymore?"

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue had a dark smile too, "It is not funny at all."

    Zhi Jiugong began to giggle, "What if I tell you that I happen to know that Ji Yuan is inside Bliss City now? That is because I happen to see him in here!"

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was delighted, "As long as he is in here, there is no escape from us."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was smiling beautifully now, "Usually no man can escape from anyone of us. Now that we have the three of us together, this Ji Yuan is surely going to be a dead man."

    "And we will be helping our master to kill this great enemy of his." Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu began to smile. "Then our master won''t be asking us to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm anymore."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue giggled, "Just to be on the safe side, I will be triggering the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array on him, just to check what profound treasures that he has got. He won''t feel a thing and all his trump cards will be naked in front of our eyes."

    These three most beautiful maidens were all nodding immediately and they had set their targets to kill Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 509 The Uneven Night (1)

    In a mystical chamber of the underground Bliss City;

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was looking at the dark mist array of the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array that were rotating slowly around her.

    Behind her, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were also deep in thoughts as they searched in the array too.

    Basically once they had locked onto the name and image of a cultivator that had entered the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind, they would be able to use this vision array to obtain information on what that cultivator had in his spatial possessions.

    As they viewed the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array, they began to find various parts of the deste monsters and other minor stuffs that were on him.

    The Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were also searching through Ji Yuan''s spatial space.

    Zhi Jiugong could not help muttering, "He looks like a poor cultivator¡­"

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was panicky searching, "He doesn''t seem to have a lot of high grade spirit stones. I can find some inferior spirit stones on him. Are you sure that this Ji Yuan is not a same name cultivator?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden rebuked them gently, "You ought to have a little patience in your search. Look, isn''t this a million year old Celestial Shadow Fern? He does have something."

    Zhi Jiugong was actually cursing, "How did this man survived till the 6th level with so little profound items? I have found many 1st and 2nd rank profound pills. You can buy these low level profound pills even on the streets."

    "Wait look!" The Lovely Empress was shouting all of a sudden. "He does have something astonishing! I saw two saint-step divine swords over here! Did you all see that?"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both gasping as they looked into the direction of the Lovely Empress, "It is really two saint-step divine swords¡­"

    The Lovely Empress had actually found it by ident in a random direction in Ji Yuan''s spatial space as she got bored.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to say slowly, "It is no wonder that he is able to defeat our master. This isn''t a joke and we must be extra careful when we are near him."

    The Lovely Empress asked, "You mean that he may have some hidden trump cards?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded, "That''s right. It may not necessary a profound treasure. This man seems to have none. But he may have some deadly profound arts that can defeat our master."

    Zhi Jiugong was smiling weakly, "His overall profound aura seems weak¡­ are you sure that he is able to injure our master with his profound arts?"

    The Lovely Empress rolled her lovely delightful eyes, "Let''s trick him into entering the arena to find out. Maybe he has managed to learn some miracle profound arts?"

    Zhi Jiugong answered weakly, "Maybe. But with his profound aura, he can''t really sustain his miracle arts."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden waved her hand to silence them, "Enough of your spections. The fact is that he has two saint-step divine swords. This fact alone means that we have to be careful of him."

    The Lovely Empress was giggling, "I don''t think he can even use two saint-step divine swords at the same time. He just doesn''t have enough profound strength to do so."

    All of a sudden an alluring heavenly veiled maiden had suddenly appeared in the midst of the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array, shocking the three of them.

    She merely said, "What are you looking at."

    They could see that her eyes were misty like the stars as through she was looking into their hearts. With a wave of her hands, the entire Profound Heavenly Eyes Array had exploded thunderous all of a sudden!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong had quickly raised their profound aura to protect themselves from the exploding profound energies.

    Luckily they were not injured but the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array waspletely destroyed.<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress asked, "What was that? Is she an immortal?"

    The Profound Heavenly Eyes Array may be a formidable vision array but it still could not be used on an immortal. So her very first thought was that she may be an immortal.

    Zhi Jiugong was startled and she had lost her beautiful regal countenance, "Did that maiden just destroy a saint level profound artefact? This is a big loss for us¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was no longer smiling and she had turned pale, "This maiden is too formidable. Or rather this Ji Yuan has such a powerful maiden immortal to aid him, this is scary."

    But she quickly said, "Retrieve our 8 heaven-step divine swords from this array. Even though our array was destroyed and the loss of this saint profound treasure is irreceable, we can still get our 8 heaven-step divine swords from the eye of this array."

    The Lovely Empress nodded slowly before she was reminded of something, "Sisters, have you noticed something that is unusual with our master in this trip?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled as she could not help praising the Death God Mingwang, "No. He is still as formidable as before.''

    The Lovely Empress solemnly said, "No! Our master keeps touching his belly! And when he had talked about his mortal enemy Ji Yuan, did you all notice that he had lingered on his belly longer than usual? It was as though he had been wounded by Ji Yuan on that spot."

    Zhi Jiugong was suddenly gasping now.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled as she cursed herself softly, "How can I miss such an important detail? Our master has never got this strange habit before. It must be Ji Yuan that had wounded him."

    Zhi Jiugong was smiling bitterly, "This Ji Yuan must be some heaven-defying genius¡­"

    The Lovely Empress chuckled all of a sudden, "Speaking of geniuses, I happened to meet one powerful Lin Antian that is enamored by me. He was talking about killing a powerful opponent but I didn''t pay much attention to this little detail. Now that I''ve recalled it¡­"

    She closed her lovely eyes to ponder with her divine art as though she was retrieving something, "That powerful opponent happens to be Ji Yuan too."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked her, "Hmm, what is his odds?"

    The Lovely Empress began to smile, "50-50."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden rolled her alluring eyes with a soft chuckle, "Let''s set them up for a fight in the arena then."

    The Lovely Empress said naughtily and her eyes were delighted, "In the arena, it won''t be 50-50. Ji Yuan will only have 20% or less because we will be sabotaging him discreetly."

    The Smiling Divine Maidenughed enthralling, "This Ji Yuan is going to be a dead Ji Yuan soon."

    Zhi Jiugong was also smiling alluringly, "But of course we can''t just depend on just an arena. We are naturally going to kill him in three different directions. Even if he has wings, he can''t fly away from us."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue nodded with a coyly smile, "No man has yet to escape from my hands¡­"

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly asking Zhi Jiugong when she had suddenly noticed that she had turned around and was about to leave, "Sister Jiugong, where are you going?"

    Zhi Jiugong answered regally as she disyed the divine zither in her hands, "Today, I have happened to get back something that is very precious to my heart. However it is damaged and so, I will like to find a quiet ce to repair it."

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue were suddenly looking weirdly at Zhi Jiugong.

    It was because Zhi Jiugong was different from them and she did not have any lofty ambitions; she may be the Ancient Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect but she had always been humble in her pursuits. In fact, she had followed the Death God Mingwang out of her own free will and not because she was seeking immortality. They began to recall that she had wept more than them when she had fallen to the ground to plead to the Death God Mingwang for the name of his mortal enemy.

    So when she had mentioned to them that she had found something precious in her heart and it was just a zither, they were blinking with curiosity.

 Chapter 510 The Uneven Night (2)

    It was the first day at Bliss City and it was night now.

    There was a sudden glow in the skies above and heavenly words were disyed in the heaven that read: The Extreme Bliss Colosseum will be opening in 5 day.

    Ji Yuan gasped to his group, "That means that we only five days before the Extreme Bliss Colosseum starts?"

    Dream Mist said, "I wonder what is in there?"

    Yang Mi was smiling brightly, "The name sounds a little weird. It says Extreme Bliss. I won''t believe it until I have experienced it myself."

    "It sounds like a fun ce to go though." Yu Jingjing was also smiling. "If it is not fun then I shall kick the ce down."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Let''s find an inn first for the night."

    Soon Ji Yuan and his group had found an inn in Bliss City. There were literally hundreds of taverns and inns in the tavern.

    His eyes popped out when he saw the exorbitant prices that was being charged and he looked at Ling Feiyue.

    Ling Feiyue giggled with Feng Minyue before winking at him, "I will pay for it."

    As Ji Yuan began to mutter that he was not a duck to Ling Feiyue; Yu Jingjing, Yang Min, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Feng Minyue were allughing softly. Only Dream Mist was ever asposed.

    However their presence had attracted hundreds of lusty cultivators to the inn and moreover, these veiled maidens were all too beautiful. Even though they had all veiled themselves, there was no hiding their astonishing beauties.

    Ji Yuan simply said to the inn keeper, "I want two rooms. One room for them and one room for myself."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly to Ji Yuan''s ear, "Shouldn''t it be one room for Dream Mist and one room for the rest of us all?"

    Ji Yuan whispered softly, "Are you sure I can take in so many? Even if I am willing, are they willing?"

    Ling Feiyue answered with a sly wink, "Don''t I know you well by now? You actually want to take all 6 of us into bed."

    Ji Yuan began tough softly, "Haha¡­"

    As Ji Yuan took them to their room, he was staring at the numerous cultivators that had dotted the inn.

    He quickly pushed them to their room and said, "We didn''t rest for many days now. Tonight, all of you shall rest well."

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "I don''t need to rest. I can apany you."

    Yang Mi was also saying shyly, "I can also apany my lord as well."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I won''t be in my room. I will be moving around the city to search for clues to the masterminds of this ce. But I don''t want any of you to apany me because you are all too eye candy."

    The real reason why he did not want them to follow was because every time they had appeared, dozens of cultivators would be following their group and he felt like he was being greened.

    All the maidens could see the ugly look that was on Ji Yuan. They knew that if Ji Yuan had a choice, he would bash these cultivators immediately. Whether he could win or not, was another matter.

    Ling Feiyue had tried to lighten the mood by teasing him but still the ugly look that was on Ji Yuan refused to go away.

    So she answered, "Alright then but you can''t go to the brothels or touch any of the maidens here."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Am I the sort that will go to the brothels and to touch the maidens here?"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng immediately nodded their heads.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were gasping with shock, "My lord Ji Yuan will actually go to the brothels?"

    Even Dream Mist was saying, "I am not surprise."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Rubbish!" Ji Yuan protested immediately. "I have never visited the brothels before¡­"

    "Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had said that you had been to the brothels before." Ling Feiyue and Bai Qianfeng had interrupted Ji Yuan.

    But a flustered Ji Yuan had already sped off while muttering: I am only there to drink my wine¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was now roaming Bliss City to check for anything unusual. The city was bigger than he had expected and he was roaming aimlessly.

    Soon he was back at the pavilions area and he saw Zhi Jiugong was ying with two men. His heart began to ache a little as he sighed: She is such a good-looking maiden, why did she have to degenerate herself to this level?

    She was naturally not the only the ones at the garden pavillions site. There were still hundreds of cultivators even at this hour.

    He was soon speeding his way to the outskirts of Bliss City.

    Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan: Big Brother, are you sure you know what you are doing? This wondend is so big, how do you expect to find the masterminds to bust this ce?

    Xiang Li was right. All the wondends of the final trial were monstrousrge and could easily cover hundreds and even thousands of miles. These wondends were and by themselves.

    Even Anyang was asking, "Do you have a n?"

    Ji Yuanughed: Of course I do have a n. I always have a n.

    Anyang asked him curiously: You have a n? What is it?

    Ji Yuan solemnly told Anyang and Xiang Li: While we do not know who are the masterminds are but we do know that Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang. So all we need to do is to find Yun Chi and she will be able to tell us who are the masterminds of this ce. Then we can bust this ce."

    Anyang said weakly, "I had thought that you are using your divine sense to search the ce but you are actually looking for Yun Chi."

    Xiang Li however praised Ji Yuan: Big Brother is such a genius. So we are finding Yun Chi!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan said to them: Quiet. I am able to sense that there is something in the mountains over there.

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ???

    With that, Ji Yuan had sped to the east side of the mountains.

    He had just climbed onto the mountain when he said, "There is an array in this ce?"

    Xiang Li was impressed: You are able to sniff arrays like Big Sister Qianfeng now?

    Ji Yuan answered weakly: Actually I sense a disturbance¡­

    All of a sudden, he had entered a dark tform that was hidden by the shadows of the tall mountains and he was stunned that he could suddenly hear music.

    Zhi Jiugong was ying her divine zither when Ji Yuan had suddenly popped into her view. She was engrossed in the music and did not notice that someone had entered her defensive array. Moreover this was a sound barrier array and could keep out any sounds. So how could Ji Yuan possibly have found her?

    She was now looking with great rm at Ji Yuan; this man was really too formidable!

    Ji Yuan was actually equally surprised to find Zhi Jiugong in this ce because he had earlier seen her in another location¡­

    Also he actually did not use his divine sense but he had sense an invisible disturbance in the air to the mountains of the east.

    Although Zhi Jiugong''s music could be blocked but the soundwave ripples that she had created could not escape from Ji Yuan who could feel the winds moving and this was a talent that Ji Yuan had picked up from his long years of fighting in the deste wilderness.

    "Maiden Zhi Jiugong?" Ji Yuan was the first to react. "What are you doing here?"<sub> </sub>

    Zhi Jiugong began to tremble lightly: She had never expected for this man to have found her so easily. She was thinking: But he can''t fight me right? Because this is thew here. But even if we fight, I may not lose as long as I can repair my divine zither¡­

    So she quickly lit the ce with her smiles, "So it is Young Hero Ji Yuan. I am just ying my zither here, that''s all."

    Ji Yuan asked her curiously, "With a broken zither?"

    Zhi Jiugong: ¡­

    This divine zither had been with her since the beginning and she had used it to create the Holy Oracle Divine Skill. Therefore she had great sentimental attachment to this divine zither.

    During a trial in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she was forced to give up this divine zither to another cultivator due to the effects of a spiritual contract and she had been feeling down since.

    Then she had met the Death God Mingwang who had helped her to kill that despicable cultivator. However she was unable to get back her divine zither because the divine rules of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were such that if someone was killed then all his items would be taken away unless of course, the trial itself permitted the cultivators to loot from each other.

    Since that day, she had been following the Death God Mingwang.

    There was one thing that she could not understand. Although she was a heaven-defying beauty but the Death God Mingwang had never touched her even once or to make her into his living furnace. Rather, he had provided her with all the resources that she could need to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm and had only asked her to join his Death Faction to help him.

    Although she knew that she was harming the cultivators, it was a lesser evil to her because they were all doing it out of their own free will and she had never forced them to copte with the others.

    Recently she had met a Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and was startled that she had actually learnt the evil dual cultivation art. Displeased that the Holy Oracle Sect had such a depraved leader, she had brought Xi Jingping under her control in the Extreme Bliss Colosseum and had destroyed her evil dual cultivation art.

    This had the effect of further reducing her cultivation to the golden supremacy level; from a great saintess to a golden supremacy, this was a mighty fall in cultivation. That was also because Zhi Jiugong had shown no mercy and disregard when she had destroyed the evil dual cultivation art in her cultivation core. Although she could remember the dark cultivation art but the crucial spiritual threads were severed by Zhi Jiugong, making it impossible for Xi Jingping to practice the evil dual cultivation art again. There was also a possiblity that Xi Jingping could never be a saintess again.

    As for her divine zither, she had been looking for it for thousands of years now but to no avail. But today when she was able to get back this divine zither from Yu Jingjing, she was actually extremely excited but she hidden it from being disyed on her countenance.

    Right now, she was actually trying to repair this divine zither.

    And that was when Ji Yuan had suddenly barged in.

    Ji Yuan was asking her again, "I mean, you are trying to repair your broken zither?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled coldly, "It sounds like you know music and even know how to repair my zither."

    Ji Yuan said, "Um, why don''t you y again? I was outside and I can''t really hear your music earlier."

    Zhi Jiugong began to hum coldly as she yed the ''Pure Tranquil Melody'' on her divine zither. This tune was not long and she had finished it in 100 breaths.

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin and said, "Your zither is indeed unique. There are 24 strings unlike the usual 10 strings version. Strings 1, 5, 7, 10, 16, 17, 18, 22, 23 are all broken. Strings 1, 3, 18, 22 are broken in the low note. String 3, 5, 10 are broken in the middle while 1, 17, 22 are broken in the high note.

    Zhi Jiugong was startled; she herself was a highly aplished musician and she was one of the very few that could repair something asplicated as her divine zither but this Ji Yuan was able to pin point all the musical faults of her divine zither from just a single y?

    "You are joking with me?"

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "You can try."

    Zhi Jiugong hesitated for a while before she diligently followed what Ji Yuan had told her. She began to spend an hour to y and to fine-tune the strings again.

    To her utter surprise, the music of her divine zither was now fully restored and had no more faults.

    She began to look at Ji Yuan with bewilderment in her golden eyes, "You really know music?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am not only a poet but a musician as well."

    Zhi Jiugong seemed to have ignored Ji Yuan and she was still touching her divine zither with great gentleness; there were even shimmering tears in her golden eyes as she looked with great mncholy on her divine zither.

    Ji Yuan had never thought that Zhi Jiugong would be such a sentimental maiden. He had remembered that when Yu Jingjing had returned her this divine zither, she did not even pay any scant notice.

    Zhi Jiugong began to say slowly with a confused countenance, "I am not someone who declines to return a favor. You can tell me an unfulfilled wish of yours. Then we are even."

    Xiang Li began to interrupt Ji Yuan hastily: Big Brother, tell her to return the favor by allowing you to bang her!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan decided to ignore Xiang Li for now and pressed on with his question, "I am actually here to look for the Death God Mingwang. If you can be so kind as to tell me where he is, I will be grateful to you!"

    There was a heartache in Zhi Jiugong''s heart: So he is really here to kill my master. All the more, I can''t allow him to do so.

    So Zhi Jiugong began to smile, "I don''t know any Death God Mingwang."

    Ji Yuan was startled: Didn''t Ye Jing says Zhi Jiugong is one of the in-charges? She doesn''t know the Death God Mingwang?

    He asked again, "You know. He always dresses in ck, carry a mask and have an unforgettable killing malevolent¡­"

    "I really don''t know any Death God Mingwang." Zhi Jiugong interrupted him. "And moreover such a person will be easily identified in Bliss City but no one has ever seen him. So he is definitely not here."

    Ji Yuan was frowning now¡­

    Zhi Jiugong asked Ji Yuan, "I am just curious. Why are you looking for this Death God Mingwang?"

    Ji Yuan began to chuckle when he had thought of Yun Chi''s delightful full body, "Nothing really. I just looking for the Death God Mingwang to bang him hard. Very hard until he screamed for mercy. Haha..."

    Zhi Jiugong was startled: They are definitely enemies¡­

    But she quickly asked him, "So, do you have any other unfulfilled wish?"

    Ji Yuan suddenly said, "You are not Zhi Jiugong for sure. Because I had seen her earlier. It is not possible for you to be in two ces."

    Zhi Jiugong was startled: Has he discovered my secret?

    But she quickly smiled, "If I am not Zhi Jiugong then who am I? How do you examine this divine zither?"

    Ji Yuan said slowly as he examined her with his eyes, "The real Zhi Jiugong is naked but you are fully clothed. Also, you don''t have a single primeval yang or yang essence on you. But the most important of all is, you did not try to seduce me. Therefore you are not the real Zhi Jiugong."

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both startled: She is not the real Zhi Jiugong?!

    Xiang Li quickly agreed: My Big Brother is so smart. Come to think of this, only the real Zhi Jiugong will try to seduce you!

    Zhi Jiugong chuckled softly, "This must be the funniest that that I have ever heard. If I am not Zhi Jiugong then who am I? What must I do to prove that I am the real Zhi Jiugong?"

    Ji Yuan began to look at her transparent robe and he was imagining her body from within, "Unless you can strip for me¡­"

    p When Ji Yuan had met Zhi Jiugong for the first time, he was already staring very hard at her and his eyes could not help wandering all over her body.</anda>

    Zhi Jiugong was now flushing in front of this Ji Yuan and she could feel that his eyes seemed to be watching her naked body that was inside her clothing.

    All of a sudden Zhi Jiugong had used her profound force to st the ground between them and she had shed away to the top of the mountains before disappearing into the darkness.

    Although Ji Yuan was unharmed but he did not pursue her either.

    Xiang Li was shocked: Big Brother, why don''t you chase her?

    Ji Yuan began to answer Xiang Li with great misery: I can''t even fight her. So what if I am able to catch up with her?

    He said: Anyway, we have found two Zhi Jiugong and only one of them is the real one. Don''t you think that this is really strange?

    Xiang Li asked: Big Brother, I don''t understand why you say that this sister here isn''t the real Zhi Jiugong? Shouldn''t she be real Zhi Jiugong instead?

    Anyang was giggling: Because this Zhi Jiugong did not let our lord to bang her while the other one allows our lord to bang her. So who the real Zhi Jiugong is very obvious.

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly: Haha¡­

 Chapter 511 The Uneven Night (3)

    When Ji Yuan had returned to his inn room, it was already quitete.

    He had made a futile search for Yun Chi and he did not spot anything that was unusual saved for there were two Zhi Jiugong and that was something that had perplexed him.

    Can it be¡­

    p Just as he was about to draw upon his conclusion as he opened the inn room, a delightful voice had said from behind him. "Kaka. So you are Ji Yuan?"</anda>

    He was startled for he had not detected any presence and he had quickly turned around.

    But before he could even turn around, a beautiful white jaded hand had grabbed him into his room.

    The entire inn room seemed to lit up by the lovely alluring presence of a peerless maiden and she was now looking delightfully at him.

    Ji Yuan gasped softly.

    For it was the Lovely Empress that had entered his room and she was giggling softly and looking at him as sheughed, "You are indeed beautiful. Unfortunately, you can only be number 2 and not number 1."

    Ji Yuan returned an unpleasant look, "Who is number 1?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly as she looked away, "He is someone perfect. You can''t bepared to him¡­"

    She was naturally thinking about the Death God Mingwang of course. Once Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and her had caught sight of the reflection of the Death God Mingwang as he briefly took off his face by the riverbank.

    Although it was only briefly but his beautiful face was so perfect that it shook their hearts to the core for they had never expected their master to be so good looking. Their first thought was: It is no wonder that he is wearing a mask or else with his beautiful face, he won''t be fearsome inbat anymore¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Who is he?"

    The Lovely Empress lifted her finger yfully as she shook her slender waist, "I can''t tell you."

    Then she asked, "But do you know who I am?"

    As she said that, she had begun to sit cross-legged on a chair.

    Ji Yuan was gulping because she was wearing a really short skirt and he could even see her transparent white panties below. Moreover she was also very perfect and this was the very first time that he had seen the Lovely Empress in such close proximity.

    He was now examining her from bottom to her revealing gown that was on top, revealing only her white melons only halfway and he could not help praising how stunning she really was.

    The Lovely Empress was not upset as she asked again, "You don''t know who I am? I am so silly. Of course you don''t. This is only the first time that we have met¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a smile, "Oh no, I do know who you are."

    The Lovely Empress was delighted as she chuckled stunningly, "Well then, what is my name since you know who I am? I''ll like to see if you''re right."

    Ji Yuan confidently answered, "Of course I know your name. You are the 50 million maiden that even Lin Antian had wanted to bed."

    The Lovely Empress began to tremble a little but she was smiling with her usual loveliness again, "I am the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. I can promise you I am not like the other maidens that you have bedded."

    Ji Yuan pretended to say, "Oh really? So what do you want?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "There is an arena in Bliss City. It is only opened during the day and it is the only ce where duels are allowed. I''vee to warn you that tomorrow your rival Lin Antian will also be in the arena and he hopes that you will also be in the arena. Are you game enough for that?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin, "Hmm¡­ why should I duel with Lin Antian?"

    The Lovely Empress coyly moved her body as she rubbed her exposed white jaded thigh, "s I do not know. This must be a feud between the two of you. I am just the one that is here to deliver his challenge invitation to you."

    Ji Yuan said, "Oh?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled, "So, will you ept his challenge?"

    Ji Yuan blinked at the Lovely Empress, "I didn''t expect that the 50 million Lovely Empress will be here to deliver this challenge personally."

    The Lovely Empress was not offended, "There will be plenty of fabulous rewards too because there will be a lot of other contestants. So this may not necessary be a duel between you and Lin Antian. After the 3 days arena is over, you will be a rich cultivator."

    Ji Yuan said, "What if I tell you that I won''t be free to go to the arena?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "What is your condition? If you are willing to go, I can even be willing to let you have me."

    Ji Yuan pretended to be surprised, "Really?"

    The Lovely Empressughed as she raised her five fingers, "But it can''t be free right? I can let you have me for 5 million high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuan had a nked expression as he stared at this amount.<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress winked at him as she pretended to say, "Oh. I seem to have forgotten that you look a little poor right? How about it. I let you have me for 500 000 high grade spirit stones. You must know that this is already a big discount from my usual asking fee. Moreover if you win in the arena tomorrow, you will definitely get more than this mere amount."

    She obviously knew that Ji Yuan was penniless and was only teasing him.

    "Weird." Ji Yuan snorted. "Why should I be paying you to enter the arena. If you are free of charge then I can consider it."

    The Lovely Empress chuckled, "I am sure 500 000 high grade spirit stones are but a small change to you, right? As for free of charge, I am afraid that this won''t do. As you know, I am not a maiden that allows myself to be cheaply obtained by any men."

    Then she began to roll her eyes with gentle loveliness, "But if you really want me free of charge then I can allow you to have me after the fight in the arena is over. What do you say?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her as he sniffed the air, "You don''t have any primeval yang on you. Why? Not single sniff. You seem to be chaste for a long time or maybe you are a chaste maiden. You are here to observe me right?"

    The Lovely Empress dropped her smiles before her lips began to stammer lightly, "Of course I am not. You know who I am."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "Weird. Some maidens want to pretend that they are chaste but I have never heard of maidens that are pretending that they are unchaste."

    The Lovely Empress had stood up now and there was a brooding look on her; it was because persuading Ji Yuan to enter the arena was much more difficult than she had thought.

    "I really don''t know what you are talking about. If you are uninterested to join the arena tomorrow then in my eyes, you are just a coward. I can''t be bothered to talk to you."

    She could not believe that her charms had failed to work against this Ji Yuan today and he seemed to be posing difficult questions for her all the time.

    Ji Yuan smiled, "I didn''t say I won''t go to the arena."

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly smiling again, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "But you must strip in front of me and let me examine you. How do I know that you will back off with your free of charge deal?"

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly very quiet.

    Ji Yuan said, "It is not like no one has ever seen your nakedness before, right?"

    The Lovely Empress slowly said, "Very well. Let me attend to something important first and then I wille back to you¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "No, I want you to strip yourself now. If you don''t then I know that you are not the real Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and is a fake. If you strip then I shall enter the arena."

    Xiang Li was shocked: Big Brother, you are asking her to strip in front of you?

    Anyang coolly said: She is obviously a fake and won''t strip. Our lord is putting a test for her.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu began to tremble before she forced a coyly and trembling voice, "Of course I am the real Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu¡­"

    When she had said that, she had begun to pull down the strings to her gown and after a short while, she allowed it to fall.

    During that brief moment before her gown was dropped, she had steeled her heart: This is all for my master... and... is a necessary sacifice... in the end... I am still degenerating myself...

    Ji Yuan was gasping immediately because she was not wearing any tops beneath her gown and when her gown was removed, only her transparent flowered pattern panties was left.

    He was looking at her trembling breasts and was gulping: Howe she looks more beautiful than the fake Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu in the day?

    Xiang Li was also saying: She is really more beautiful than the fake Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu¡­

    Anyang said to them: She is the real Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. The two of you are confusing me with your confusing thoughts¡­

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu''s fingers were now upon her panties and she was brimming with tears. It was obvious to everyone that her fingers were trembling very hard.

    Ji Yuan saw that she had covered her tits with one hand.

    He had suddenly said aloud, "That is enough. I will go to the arena. You can put your gown back now."

    When the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had heard him, she did not hesitate to take her gown at all but before she could put on her gown, the room door had opened.

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Yang Min, Yu Jingjing, Feng Minyue and Little Princess hade to look for Ji Yuan because they could hear amotion inside.

    And when they saw a most beautiful and delightful maiden sobbing in front of them, they were shocked. And moreover she was the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu!

    Ling Feiyue immediately questioned Ji Yuan, "What kind of a bestial act did you do to this harlot that cause her to even cry?"

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded, "If I tell you that I did nothing, will you believe me?"

    All the maidens echoed, "NO!"

 Chapter 512 The Uneven Night (4)

    Just as Ji Yuan was trying to exin himself to the maidens that had gathered, the Lovely Empress had quickly put on her gown and had bolted away, without leaving any exnation for anyone. She had bolted so fast that she was even disying her full cultivation realm and it was the realm of a peaked great saintess.

    <o>,m Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You are all at the door, why didn''t you stop her?"</o>

    Ling Feiyue had asked him, "Did we alle at a wrong timing?"

    Ji Yuan could onlyugh weakly, "She is probably our clue to finding the hideout of the masterminds of this den. I was so close to getting one of her clothing and to sniff her hideout with my nose."

    All the maidens: ???

    Ji Yuan exined breathlessly, "She is a fake. The Lovely Empress in the day isn''t her. Wait for me here."

    With that he had sped off after her. That was after he had quickly left behind a quick exnation to the maidens.

    Once he was outside, he began to use his divine sense to track for her profound animus.

    "East!"

    He had picked up her profound animus in the east side so he began to sped toward that direction in the cover of the darkness.

    Her mistake was that she had sped off too quickly and did not cover her tracks so her profound animus was still radiating strongly.

    He had actually wanted to steal a piece of her clothing and to use it to check the different hideouts of Bliss City.

    But when his ns had failed, he was now panicky.

    As he sped east toward the mountains and forests outside of Bliss City, he was frowning: Their hideout is not in Bliss City?

    After meeting Zhi Jiugong earlier, he had begun to ponder at the same spot for a while on who Zhi Jiugong really was. If she was fake then how was she able toy her hands on the divine zither that Yu Jingjing had given to the real Zhi Jiugong?

    And this fake Zhi Jiugong did not seem to have the lewd aura of the real Zhi Jiugong and she was also more regal in her appearances.

    Also she was not willing to strip for him.

    As Ji Yuan scanned his surroundings for any sight of the Lovely Empress, he was a little disappointed that he had lost her tracks.

    That was because he still had some questions to ask from her.

    He weakly muttered, "Never mind."

    It was actually not easy to catch a great saintess like the Lovely Empress anyway. It was impossible that she would not have any profound items to hide her tracks and when she had realized that Ji Yuan was following her, she could also suppress her cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan began to tap his fingers as he muttered, "The fake Zhi Jiugong was in the east side just now. And this fake Lovely Empress is also heading east. Hmm..."

    Could it be that their hideout was in the east?

    Just as he was about to sped forward, a white light had suddenly shed in front of him and he was startled.

    An extraordinary peerless maiden had suddenly appeared in front of him, startling him with her stunning looks.

    She then lifted her alluring eyes slowly as she lit a slow smile, "You must be Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "And you are?"

    "The Smiling Divine Maiden." She casually answered Ji Yuan with a wry smile.

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "So you are the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled as she swayed in her flimsy short toga, "Am I so easily to be recognizable?"

    As she had said that, she was also checking every inch of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Someone as beautiful as you are not easy to be missed. I am sure that you didn''t appear here by any ident?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled a dangerous nod, "I saw that you are following my Sister Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress. I have never seen her so hurt like this. And I want to tell you that your pursuit should stop now because you can never find out anything from her."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan asked, "Or is it because you are the real mastermind and all the information is with you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden chuckled softly, "I am but a mere maiden. How can I be a mastermind of anything? Why don''t you tell me what you want instead? Maybe I can grant it to you instead."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I just want to find the Death God Mingwang and to destroy this ce. I am sure this isn''t too hard?"

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden had heard Ji Yuan, she was thinking: So he really wants to kill master and to destroy our paradise. I must get rid of him as soon as possible then.

    She said to Ji Yuan, "Very well then. Let''s keep it simple. Join the arena tomorrow and if you can defeat me then I will tell you everything that I know."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You are joining the arena too?"

    "Yes!" The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled. "You are afraid?"

    "Sister Chu!" A voice had suddenly interrupted her and it was the Lovely Empress that had appeared in the forest. "I will join the arena as well to kill this Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan saw that these two peerless maidens were also joining the arena to kill him so he asked curiously, "Erm... do we have any feuds?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed, "We do have a feud with you."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "We do have a feud? What is it?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered, "Only if you can survive the arena then I will tell you."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "What if the two of you are killed by me? Then who shall tell me what I want to know?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered nonchntly, "Zhi Jiugong will answer your questions."

    Then she lifted her fingers with a smile, "Farewell..."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her, "You don''t have any primeval yang essence on you too. Are you a chaste maiden?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden turned a curious look at him before she smiled, "I am naturally an unchaste maiden. Chaste or no chaste, is it really important to you?"

    She had suddenly pulled the Lovely Empress to her and they had blinked away.

    Ji Yuan was left to mutter, "Just as I''ve thought, they do have some sort of teleportation profound treasure. That means that even if I do know about their general direction, I can''t reach their hideout."

    Then he said weakly, "Even this Smiling Divine Maiden is saying that she is an unchaste maiden. Why is it so? Are they so afraid of being a chaste maiden? And I didn''t even say I will enter the arena."

    Xiang Li had suddenly asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you are really going to this arena? They have killing intentions against you. I can sense it.

    Anyang nodded: Same here and it is really obvious.

    Ji Yuan grinned: I didn''t join the arena because of them but because I want to beat up someone already.

    When Ji Yuan had returned to Bliss City, he had suddenly stopped at a building and there were lewd voices there.

    There were naturally plenty of other lewd sounds in the city but Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped here.

    It was because he had suddenly recognized Ye Jing''s voice.

    And he was drawn to take a quick look.

    He saw that she was naked with two very ugly male cultivators and that they were ying together.

    One of the ugly male cultivators was saying to Ye Jing, "We are both unorthodox cultivators and your enemies yet we are never sick of ying with the Great Heroine Ye Jing."

    Another wasughing, "To think that the Great Heroine Ye Jing is in our bed and she is addicted to us. We must be the ugliest cultivator to have ever defied her."

    Ye Jing giggled lewdly, "Why do you have so much words today? Harder and faster!"

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes when he had heard Ye Jing: Is her information still reliable then?

 Chapter 513 Prelude To The Arena (1)

    The next day, Ji Yuan had arrived at the arena with the rest of the maidens.

    Like many ces of Bliss City, this arena would only open for 3 days at a 2 weeks interval.

    Therefore the number of cultivators that were crowding into the arena numbered several thousand cultivators and almost all the cultivators that were in Bliss City were here.

    Only roughly 30% of the contestants would usually be new and today Ji Yuan would be among one of them. As for the rest of the newly arrived cultivators, they had decided to observe from the spector stand to observe the mysticws of the ce and the rules of the arena.

    Naturally some of the mysticws affecting the arena were that none of the spectors would be allowed to disturb the arena when it had started and none would be allowed to leave while the arena was still unfinished. Also no one could reveal any information about the arena itself.

    The arena was also one the few ces that the contestants would be able to obtain lucky urrences and rewards.

    But unknown to these contestants, the profound treasures of the dead contestants would be taken back by the Wondend of Ecstasy Ind and not by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Actually Ji Yuan had no idea on the rules of the arena when he had joined but he insisted that none of the maidens would be allowed to follow him.

    He had told them, "We don''t know the nature of the arena and it will be bad if we were to fight among ourselves. Let me enter the arena first."

    They had tried to ask around for the general rules of the arena but the reply was that it was always different.

    When they had pressed for more information, they had all received the same message, "It is forbidden."

    There were two gates for the arena.

    One that led to the spector stand and the another would lead to the contestant area.

    So Ji Yuan said to the maidens with a chuckle, "Don''t worry about me. Just watch my awesome performance."

    Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue had asked him, "Do you really need to go? Even though you know that this is a trap?"

    But Ji Yuan had replied to them and also to the rest, "Even if this is a trap, it is still a trial. I just have to defeat the Smiling Divine Maiden and she will give me the answers that I want. But that is not the reason because I am not a foolish enamored man that believed that she will give me an answer. My real purpose is to make a real ruckus in there and I am going to make the Death God Mingwang to take notice of me."

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were all shocked, "You are going to fight the Death God Mingwang?"

    Ling Feiyue quickly said, "Don''t! We should avoid the Death God Mingwang. His aura is too terrifying. I will never want to see him again!"

    As Yang Mi did not know who the Death God Mingwang was, she was wondering who he was.

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is right, I am going to fight the Death God Mingwang! And I am going to bang him to his knees too."

    Bai Qianfeng almost choked when she had heard Ji Yuan and she could only suppress herughter: You mean you want to bang Yun Chi¡­"<sub> </sub>

    He gave a confidence look before he went into the contestant area to register himself.

    Except for Dream Mist, all the other maidens were either sighing softly or wishing Ji Yuan good luck for they did not know where his confidence hade from.

    Ling Feiyue could only quietly say to the others, "He is a quirky cultivator that knows how to solve trials. Even I don''t have his talent in this. Leave him be. He is always thinking so weirdly."

    Just as she was about to go inside the huge spector stand, Bai Qianfeng had suddenly stopped her. "Look."

    All the maidens followed the look that was on Bai Qianfeng and saw that it was Zhi Jiugong and she was already in one of the cozy spector stands with the best view.

    Yu Jingjing said with a bitter smile, "She is my ancient matriarch¡­ there is nothing to talk about her¡­" She was still suffering from the heartbreak of knowing that her much respected ancient matriarch would choose to degenerate herself.

    Bai Qianfeng said slowly, "She is different from the Zhi Jiugong that we saw on our first day. This one has an excessive amount of life force in her. She is a half-immortal. But the one we saw, seems to have reached the end of her life force."

    Yang Mi was curious enough to ask, "What do you mean? They are not the same? But¡­"

    Yu Jingjing followed after her as she looked at the faraway Zhi Jiugong, "But she is carrying the divine zither of our Holy Oracle Sect. I can''t be mistaken. Maybe she is weak then and today she is strong?"

    Bai Qianfeng who was the Abyssal Null Goddess and who was also an immortal goddess said nonchntly, "The Zhi Jiugong that I saw yesterday, I didn''t even want to take a look for her life force is but a candle light. This one however is like the day. No amount of rest can increase a cultivator''s life force and this one is a totally different person. She is a half-step immortal and not a celestial. Luckily, our lord isn''t going to fight her."

    Feng Minyue had suddenly remembered Ye Jing''s warnings and said, "You don''t say that. Sister Ye Jing had told me that the Divine Smiling Maiden and the Lovely Empress are equally formidable. Maybe they are half-immortals as well?"

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "Enough of these endless spections and don''t jinx our lord. Maybe this Zhi Jiugong is but an exceptional cultivator."

    Bai Qianfeng said thoughtfully, "Our lord did mention there is a fake Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu yesterday and now we are seeing two Zhi Jiugong¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had interrupted her with a soft giggle and had pulled her away, "Sister Qianfeng, why are you thinking so hard for? Surely you know that our lord Ji Yuan is always muttering some weird stuffs. You don''t have to take him so seriously."

    Yu Jingjing was giggling too, "And he always hiding something from us too!"

    Bai Qianfeng did not try to argue with that because she was supposed to keep Yun Chi identity a secret from the rest. It was because Yun Chi did not want anyone to know that she was the Death God Mingwang for not even the Great Demon God or the Deste Dragon God was aware of her real identity. In this world, only Ji Yuan and her were aware of her true identity.

    As she was being pulled away, Dream Mist was looking at Zhi Jiugong discreetly.

    It was because she had recognized her as one of the three maidens that had used the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array to search into Ji Yuan''s spatial storage space. The activation of this powerful array required someone who was well verse in the immortal arts and not any mere peaked golden saints would be capable of using the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array.

    And with a few quick calctions, she had already known the immortal methods they were using and how this Zhi Jiugong had split herself.

    She merely smiled, "Small y."

 Chapter 514 Prelude To The Arena (2)

    After Ji Yuan had entered the contestant area, he had quickly signed up to be one of the contestants.

    The waiting room was actually a big spendid hall and there were hundreds of cultivators in there.

    With a look, Ji Yuan knew that they were all powerful cultivators and none of them were actually weak. Or else they would not be in the final trial.

    Many of these cultivators were also risk takers and they were only interested in the trial rewards. So Ji Yuan had a better impression of them than the cultivators that had lingered at the pavilion gardens.

    Once again, there was nothing that Ji Yuan could do since he could not ask for any information about the arena because it was forbidden to even mention it.

    All of a sudden he had recognized a cultivator and he was approaching him coldly.

    He was actually Lin Antian!

    Ji Yuan smiled, unsurprising to see him. "So it is Brother Lin Antian."

    Lin Antian answered coldly, "I don''t have a poor brother like you. I am just here to tell you that you indeed have the guts toe to the arena."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Actually I didn''te for you¡­"

    He had actuallye to create ruckus so that Yun Chi would know that he was here. By now, he had realized that no one had seen the Death God Mingwang in Bliss City and he was now having a weird feeling.

    But he quickly changed his tone to say, "I don''t think you can defeat me." It was because he did not want to look inferior to Lin Antian and right now, they werepeting on their wills to gain the superior advantage in their fighting airs.

    Lin Antian said coldly, "The first time that we have fought, you have actually fought lose to me and the second time that we have fought, it is a draw."

    Anyang immediately rebuked in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: If I know he is such a person, I would have dered him a loser in your first fight!

    Xiang Li was saying: I told you so!

    Ji Yuan had remembered that the first time that they had fought, it was actually a loss for him but Fairy Anyang Xiahou had dered that it was a draw.

    The second time was the fight that they had together with Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Jue Jie, Yu Jingjing and Xiao Muhan.

    So he said with a small frown, "Howe I remember that you are the one that have run away instead with a golden talisman?"

    Lin Antian snorted, "That is only because you are hiding behind your cohort of maidens. Do you think that I will believe that you will fight fairly? And it is also because I appreciate the fair maidens the best and I do not want to harm them."

    Ji Yuan dered without a doubt to what he was saying, "Naturally I am a fair person. On my sword saint honor¡­"

    "Who do we have here?" A delightful voice had suddenly chuckled in the hall as she interrupted Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and saw that it was the Lovely Empress that had appeared. Her captivating figure had immediately attracted the attention of all the cultivators in the hall.

    Even Lin Antian was not an exception for he was enamored with her.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "So it is the Lovely Empress."

    The Lovely Empress began to look mockingly at Ji Yuan, "I''ve thought that you don''t have the courage to be here."

    Ji Yuan began to pat his chest closest to his heart, "No, no. If there is something that I do notck, it is actually courage."

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "See you inside the arena then. I don''t want to talk to an eunuch like you."

    Ji Yuan was slightly offended, "I will be a eunuch?!"

    The Lovely Empress giggled with great loveliness and many of the nearby cultivators were enthralled by her. Was there anyone that was as lovely as her in this hall?

    She smiled, "If you are not a eunuch then why are you unmoved by me?"

    She had actually wanted in-person to seduce Ji Yuanst night but Ji Yuan kept making things difficult for her.

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Of course I am not a eunuch. I still want to bed you free of charge after the arena is over. Isn''t this the promise that you have made to mest night? And that is the reason why I am here today."

    Lin Antian was shocked, "Free of charge?! You went to see himst night?!"

    The Lovely Empress quickly said with a look of panic in her eyes, "I am only trying to persuade him toe to the arena."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Alright then. I am leaving¡­"<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress was shocked, "You can''t leave like this. You have promised!"

    Ji Yuan of course had no intention to leave and he was only teasing her. But he pretended to say with a hurt look, "I am only here because you have promised that I can bed you for 500 000 high grade spirit stonesst night or free of charge after the arena."

    Lin Antian shockingly said, "What?! Only 500 000 high grade spirit stones?!"

    Then he had turned to look at the Lovely Empress, "You have told me that I can have you for only 10 million high grade spirit stones if I were to join the arena."

    Ji Yuan added fuel to the fire by saying, "You can bang her 20 times at my price."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    "Don''t believe him!" The Lovely Empress was now saying panicky and she was flustered by Ji Yuan, "He is a badass rascal cultivator!"

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to protest for himself, everyone was shouting at the red gates of the hall for a most holistic maiden had walked inside and the divine appearance of her looks were enthralling numerous cultivators.

    "It is her?!"

    "She is so beautiful¡­"

    "I have never been such an enchanting maiden before¡­"

    "I''ve thought that the Lovely Empress is beautiful enough¡­"

    "She is the Smiling Divine Maiden¡­"

    "Is she going to go to the arena too?"

    "This is the contestant arena¡­"

    "Of course she is going to join as a contestant¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly walked into the great hall and her astonishing smiles were pulling everyone to her, captivating them to her countenance and everyone thought that she was actually smiling at them.

    Even Ji Yuan had thought of the same too.

    Only the Smiling Divine Maiden was really looking at Ji Yuan for she had walked to look at him with a coyly smile as she said, "You have reallye."

    Ji Yuan smiled as he turned to say to the Lovely Empress, "I havee for her and not for you, unfortunately."

    The Lovely Empress: ...

    The Smiling Divine Maiden transmitted a divine whisper to the Lovely Empress in secret: He is merely trying to provoke you. Do not fall into his tricks.

    The Lovely Empress answered secretly with her own divine whisper: He is a really bad guy.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered: That is why we are here to get rid of him.

    The Lovely Empress nodded discreetly as she whispered silently: Right and I will be the one that will strip him in public!

    The Smiing Divine Maiden could only smile weakly for she could see that the Lovely Empress was still sour that Ji Yuan had asked her to strip in public. However she had to cut short their divine transmission or else Ji Yuan could suspect that they were actually talking with each other.

    So she smiled to Ji Yuan, "We will surely keep the part of our agreement to you."

    Ji Yuan began tough loudly, "Yes, yes. Our secret agreement..."

    She had failed to notice that Lin Antian had a most ugly look because he had misunderstood the agreement that they hadst night.

    And moreover, Lin Antian had thought that even the Smiling Divine Maiden was going to strip herself in Ji Yuan''s bed.

    They were interrupted again by a beautiful voice and they saw a alluring maiden and also appeared. "Junior Ji Yuan? You are also here?"

    She was naturally surprised to see Ji Yuan with the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Ji Yuan called out her name with an astonished look, "Great Heroine Ye... I mean Sister Senior Ye..."

 Chapter 515 Bliss City Arena Day One (1)

    Zhi Jiugong had quietly presented herself to the thousands of cultivators that had gathered at the arena.

    She was astonishing beautiful and she carried a zither with twenty-four strings in her hands. Behind her were eight mortal maids and they were all beautiful.

    She raised her profound voice and immediately almost all the thousands of cultivators in the arena were dumbfounded for her profound voice was that of a peaked great saintess.

    Those that did not know her was surprised that she would be a great saintess, much less a peaked great saintess. It was because she had rarely disyed her profound animus in this ce.

    But today, she would be disying her profound animus because there was a need for her to preside personally over the affairs of this arena.

    She had rarely appeared in public because she was always cultivating. Instead she had left Bliss City to the other Zhi Jiugong. But today, she was the real one.

    She had appeared in public because there was a special need to kill the mortal enemy of her master and that was Ji Yuan.

    When she saw first Ji Yuan, it was when she was repairing her divine zither and Ji Yuan had actually given her a good impression. However, between her master and Ji Yuan, she could only choose one and that was her master. There was never a single doubt in her golden eyes that between these two choices, which one was the correct one.

    And Ji Yuan must die.

    Also, today her two prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters the Lovely Empress and even the Smiling Divine Maiden had setup the arena trial just to get Ji Yuan.

    Therefore short of a miracle, there was no escape from them.

    She had a mixed reaction however. It was because she still owed Ji Yuan an unfulfilled wish and she was not the type that would own a favor to someone. Especially not when that person would soon be dead. Naturally she would not strip for him for her chaste body was not meant for his wanton eyes.

    This would be what she would say to him: I will burn a lot of incenses and ghost monies for you Ji Yuan as your unfulfilled wish.

    Zhi Jiugong was now looking at the spector stands and once again, she had spotted the veiled maiden with the misty eyes among the thousands of cultivators.

    There was almost a sense of relief when she saw her here for this would mean that she would not be inside the arena to mess up their carefully crafted n.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also cautious of this misty eyes maiden and had only entered the arena as a contestant at the veryst minute.

    She had said, "If she is joins as a contestant then we may need to tweak our ns a little. If she did not join then we can still carry out our ns to kill Ji Yuan."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong had naturally spotted Ji Yuan even before he had arrived at the arena.

    Therefore when the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress had taunted Ji Yuan that he did have the courage to join as a contestant, they were actually just taunting him and not because they were surprised to see him.

    Zhi Jiugong muttered, "Ji Yuan, you have no idea how you are going to die in there. Even with your two saint-step divine swords, do you think that you can evenpare to the Smiling Divine Maiden? She can still easily rip you apart."

    As for the Lovely Empress, she was upset that she had failed to seduce Ji Yuan and she had chosen to enter the arena out of her own will. There was never a need for her to be involved in the first ce.

    However the Lovely Empress had exined that she would want to kill Ji Yuan personally for humiliating her.

    That was why the Lovely Empress had joined as a contestant.

    Right now, Zhi Jiugong was partaking as the final judge of the arena as she said musically to the thousands of cultivators, "I have the honor of being the judge of honor for Bliss City''s arena. May the best cultivators emerge victoriously in the arena. The mysticw of killings had been lifted for the arena for what is the arena if there is no blood?"

    Her voice was beautiful and musical. Many of the cultivators were enthralled by her mesmerizing voice. In fact Zhi Jiugong had the most beautiful voice among her three sisters due to her almost perfection in music.

    Almost perfection in music until she had met Ji Yuan who seemed perfect in all ways in his music.

    Once again, Zhi Jiugong was musing ufortably as she thought quietly: It is such a pity to kill you. If we are not enemies then we may evenpose music together¡­<sub> </sub>

    But she quickly cast away her distracted thoughts to announce aloud, "The arena is a demanding trial for the cultivators and it willst for three days. ording to the arena record, this year we have 850 cultivators that will be joining the arena."

    When she had said that, there were many ps and apuses from the thirty thousand audiences.

    Not all of these thirty thousand audiences were golden celestials. Only 12 500 of them were golden celestials while the rest were mortal cultivators. Out of the 12 500 golden celestials, only 5000 were golden celestials that had just recently entered the final trials. Arge majority of the golden celestials were actually denizens of Bliss City and they were the cumted golden celestials from thousands of years of the final trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Zhi Jiugong began to smile to the crowd, "Now we shall introduce the contestants."

    As soon as she had said that, all 850 arena contestants were teleported into the huge arena colosseum immediately and brought in front of the 30 000 odds spectors.

    And Ji Yuan was naturally among one of the 850 arena contestants.

    There were thunderous loud apuses from the spectors when the arena contestant was brought into view. However the arena contestants were not able to hear anything save for the profound voice of the judge. This was the mysticw of the arena.

    Many of the spectors were now shouting excitingly, "Look! Who is there?"

    "I can''t believe it. It is the Great Heroine Ye Jing?"

    "No, stupid. It is the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress! They are there as contestants too!"

    "The Smiling Divine Maiden is also there? What is her cultivation realm?"

    "A delightful and vulnerable maiden like the Lovely Empress will actually join the arena as a contestant?"

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were not interested in any Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden; they were here to cheer for Ji Yuan.

    Even Dream Mist were looking expectantly at Ji Yuan¡­

    Bai Qianfeng said to the rest of the maidens as she scanned the contestants, "I can now confirm that the Lovely Empress that we had seenst night is also a half-immortal. There seem to be another half-immortal as well¡­"

    But she was soon sighing softly for the rest of the maidens were not paying any attention to her. Instead they were now giggling softly among themselves.

    "Look, that is Ji Yuan!"

    "He still looks as poor as ever."

    "Will he be alright?"

    "I don''t even want him to join this arena¡­"

    "What is the purpose again of this arena? To expose some fake maidens right?"

    Zhi Jiugong began to smile as she began to teleport all the contestants to a ce where there were many tall mountains, "The first part of today''s arena final is really very simple. All they need to do is to reach the other side of the mountain in one piece and they will be allowed to go to the second part of today''s trial."

    Inside the new ce, Ji Yuan could hear Zhi Jiugong''s musical voice but he could not see her.

    He wasughing jovially, "What? This sounds like an easy trial to me."

    While he wasughing jovially, Lovely Empress and Smiling Divine Maiden were also giggling softly; it was because they wereughing at Ji Yuan who wasughing.

 Chapter 516 Bliss City Arena Day One (2)

    Zhi Jiugong''s voice echoed was extremely smoothening, "Before this trial has started, there are several things that you must know first. Firstly, the effects of your profound pills will only be at 1/10 effectiveness¡­"

    When she had said that, many of the first timers like Ji Yuan were protesting venomously that this rule was most unfair to them.

    The old timers however knew of this forbidden rule and it was not really a surprise for them.

    Lovely Empress whispered to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "This Ji Yuan only has some worthless second rank profound pills, does he need to have such a big reaction? His profound pills are next to worthlessness. Just this fact alone and with his cheapskate protests, he is definitely not going to be a MC. Who has ever heard of a saint, let alone a great saint that is too poor to even afford a decent profound pill or two?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden merely nodded for this Ji Yuan had intrigued her. There was something in him that she felt was not simple but she could not find any words to exin it.

    Zhi Jiugong continued, "The second rule is that you must remember is that each of you are able to copte with each other only once to recover your profound strength. Therefore this is also the rule for the the next 3 days."

    Immediately when she had said that, many of the cultivators were smiling as they looked at Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, the Lovely Empress and Ye Jing.

    Even the many female cultivators were looking at many of the male cultivators with interests, especially Ji Yuan and Lin Antian who had the most beautiful looks.

    Ji Yuan was frowning because he had noticed that many of female cultivators including the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and even Ye Jing were all looking at him with a sly smile.

    The Lovely Empress was smiling with great loveliness now as she whispered to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "He will never suspect that she isn''t the real Ye Jing and when he has copted with her, he will be poisoned by us instead. Even if he is a great golden saint, he isn''t going to escape without some miracle pills¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly shot her an angry look, "Do not discuss our ns in public."

    Outside the arena trial, Ji Yuan''s maidens were of course shaking their fists furiously as they said, "Ji Yuan, don''t you dare!"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled as she informed them of the third rule, "The third rule is that you have only two hours toplete this trial. And if you fail toplete the trial, you have to pay a million high grade spirit stones. Completing this trial will naturally grant you two million high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock, "Two million high grade spirit stones! I am rich!"

    Anyang reminded him: Be careful you don''t end up losing a million high grade spirt stones. We don''t have any spirit stones right now.

    Xiang Li was nodding too: All our spirit stones go into buying the masculine profound pills. Pffff...

    Zhi Jiugong was now dering aloud as she disyed her musical voice which was enhanced by her profound power, "There are rows of blue gs on the other side of the mountains. The trial will start now. Run toward the mountains and touch the blue gs! This is your objective."

    The entire ground began to shake violently.

    Many of the cultivators were shouting as they sped through the mountain forests and paths, "Let''s go!"

    Ji Yuan was naturally ahead as he did not want to lose this race. Especially when he had prided himself on his speed.

    But all of a sudden he was shocked to see a gigantic ninth rank epic deste raptor with six beaming ws on its back appearing in front of a group of cultivators as it started to massacre them.

    Even Ji Yuan had broken into cold sweat because even for him, he was not confident of beating one himself.

    He began to shout loudly from behind, "If we group together, one gigantic ninth rank epic deste raptor isn''t an issue at all¡­"<sub> </sub>

    All of a sudden he was shocked to see groups of the same gigantic ninth rank epic deste raptors were popping left and right.

    And then he had heard many of the injured cultivators were shouting, "What?! Our golden talismans cannot be used in this ce?!"

    He was thinking: This is too ridiculous! Isn''t this supposed to be the easiest trial on the first day?!

    He had suddenly realized that the first few groups that were running in front were actually the first timer cultivators and the old timers had not made a move first for they were making use of the first timers to check which of the paths were safe for them.

    Regardless, no one was foolish to fight these ninth rank epic deste raptors and Ji Yuan was not an exception. He had to conserve his precious profound strength first instead of wasting it on some meaningless fights, especially a fight where he would get no help from the surrounding cultivators.

    All the cultivators began to speed forward hastily.

    Even though some of the paths may be a trap, there were still many cultivators that took a gambit by trying to speed through the gigantic forms of the ninth rank epic deste raptors. But in order to survive, many of these cultivators were purposely pushing one another. Some would even cut down the other cultivators and to use them as a slowing shield for them to make their getaway!

    In the ensuring confusion, Ji Yuan had taken a path that seemed safe.

    He was jolted when Ye Jing had caught up with him as she said, "If you trust me, I know of a safe path through the mountains."

    Ji Yuan asked her as he sped along with him, "How do you know?"

    Ye Jing answered without batting an eyelid, "I have a danger sense that is sharper than most. I just know where the deste monsters in hiding. So, do you trust me and is willing to follow me?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Of course I have full faith in the Great Heroine Ye Jing. Even if you have asked me to go fetch the moon for you, I will do it for you. Haha¡­"

    Ye Jing smiled alluringly, "You''re indeed the man that can capture the heart of my Sister Saintess Feng Minyue. Come with me then."

    All of a sudden she had sped down the mountain cliffs.

    Ji Yuan was astonished as he pointed to the mountains on the other side, "Erm, I believe that our destination is over there but why are we going down and further away?"

    Ye Jing returned a smile at him, "Didn''t you say that you have full faith in me? So what are you hesitating about? Or do you want to fight with these deste monsters?"

    Ji Yuan immediately jumped down with her as heughed, "Of course I have full faith in the Great Heroine Ye Jing."

    When Ji Yuan had jumped down the cliff to follow Ye Jing, this was not lost to the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden who had been putting on a close tag to Ji Yuan.

    The Lovely Empress was smiling, "It seems that he has taken the bait now."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was also smiling, "This is good and is ording to our calctions. We have the Spirit Divination Compass to aid us in this ce. This is an emperor-step artefact without any equal in the entire celestial realm."

    But the Lovely Empress suddenly had a sour look as she secretly looked in Ji Yuan direction: Why did he trust her so readily and yet he is full of mistrust for me? Am I not beautiful in his eyes?"

 Chapter 517 Bliss City Arena Day One (3)

    Ji Yuan had followed Ye Jing down the mountains and they were soon taking a path that was going up again.

    When Ji Yuan saw that, he was greatly relieved.

    But he could not resist saying, "Senior Sister Ye, we still have slightly more than one hour now. Aren''t we taking things a little too long?"

    Ye Jing chuckled, "With your speed and mine, do you need to fear that we will be a littlete?"

    "Erm, no¡­" Ji Yuan weakly answered.

    Ye Jing was suddenly looking romantically at him, "It is just the two of us here. Do you not think that this is the most romantic thing to happen between the two of us?"

    Ji Yuan was forced to admit, "Well yes...haha..."

    All of a sudden there were two ninth rank epics deste raptors that had jumped from the top of the mountains into their paths, startling the two of them and blocking their paths.

    Ye Jing hastily shouted alluringly, "let''s divert one each as we try to shake them off."

    "Alright." Ji Yuan answered her but he was also weakly saying, "It seems that this path isn''t as safe as you think."

    But barely had he said that, he was already in hot pursuit by the ninth rank epic deste raptor which towered 20m. By deste monsters standard, 20m was not towering at all for a ninth rank epic deste monster but it made up its size by being really very fast. Moreover this was an epic ss deste monster and not a mere profound deste monster so it had really deadlybat techniques.

    Ji Yuan had hurled his sword energies upon the epic deste raptor as he ran but he failed to injure it even with his saint-step divine sword and sword spirit. Even the sword energies of his heaven light of the coiling dragon had just bounced off the thick profound armor of this deste monster as he tried to maintain a distance between the two of them.

    Ji Yuan shoutedmely to the epic deste raptor, "Can''t you see that I have a saint-step divine sword in my hand? If you dare toe close to me, I will cut you down."

    This was only a threat. And there were several times that the epic deste raptor hade close to him and he had barely delivered a scratch on the heavily armored monster which was quickly regenerated by its profound animus.

    And this epic deste raptor had six beaming sharp des that were as strong as his saint-step divine swords and were slicing the trees and rocks apart whenever the monster attacked him.

    Ji Yuan saw that Ye Jing had lost the monster that was pursuing her and had climbed to a cliff top in front. So he tried to follow her too.

    However there were suddenly two epic deste raptors that were on him in the next instant.

    As he did not want to use his spirit animus that would consume half of his inner spirit sea, he began to unleash a stroke from his newly acquainted miracle art and the profound power unleashed was shocking;bined with the strength of his saint-step divine sword and his sword spirit, he had delivered a cutting wound into one of the epic deste raptors and knocking it against the other epic deste raptor with a thunderous smash against the sides of the mountain cliff.

    However he did not press his advantage as he quickly flew up to the top of the cliff, knowing very well that the stunned epic deste raptor would soon regenerate its wound in a blink of a few eyes.

    This small distraction was good enough for him to fly up to the top of the cliff as Ye Jing caught his hands firmly as she giggled, "You are good. We are so high now that they won''t be able to catch us so soon. Let''s continue on our way."

    A breathless Ji Yuan could only nod as he followed his idol, the Great Heroine Ye Jing.

    He had thought that Ye Jing was about to take him to fight another round of deste monsters again when she had brought him up to another mountain top as she smiled. "We have arrived."

    She pointed to a mountain tform and there were hundreds of blue gs on top.

    With an excited look she said to Ji Yuan, "Follow me. We don''t have much time left."

    An exhausted Ji Yuan had estimated that he had climbed the mountains down and up at least 30 times. However Ye Jing did not seem exhausted and he was quite ashamed of his physical attributes.

    He was wondering to himself: What if I were to follow the cultivators in front? Will I be this exhausted?<sub> </sub>

    While thinking he had sped along with Ye Jing and had finally reached the other mountain tform.

    All in all, he took almost two hours.

    When he had reached the mountain tform he saw that Lin Antian, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden had long arrived at the ce.

    He put on a brave front and a smile, "This trial isn''t too difficult, haha!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden merely smiled quietly in his direction.

    The Lovely Empress was giggling softly when she saw him and she could not resist saying, "Hey Ji Yuan. You look so exhausted. Are you sure that you canplete the rest of the trial? How much inner spiritual sea have you used? Do you need to copte with me to regain your profound strength?"

    When Lin Antian had heard her, he was annoyed and shot Ji Yuan a look that was filled with bloodlust. However the Lovely Empress ignored himpletely.

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly at the Lovely Empress and said, "Even if all the women are dead, I will never copte with you."

    There was twitching in the countenance of the Lovely Empress and it was obvious that there was anger in her golden eyes.

    The Lovely Empress answered coldly, "Not even free of charge?"

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded as he put his fingers crossed behind his butt before he answered her coolly, "Not even free of charge."

    The Lovely Empress began to chuckle softly, "I was thinking if you want to honor your deal with mest night. But since you have said that you are not interested in me, I guess the deal is off now."

    Actually Ji Yuan was looking at her short skirt and between her legs. When she had suddenly said this, he was banging his head on the wall as he said shit to himself.

    But he pretended to be as cool as before andughed nonchntly, "I was actually about to suggest the same thing. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "Hmph! So be it!"

    Ji Yuan began to walk away nonchntly but he actually had a heavy heart.

    Xiang Li was curious: Big Brother, I don''t understand. Didn''t you say that you are not interested in the fake Lovely Empress?

    Ji Yuan answered with a heavy heart: Not when she is free of charge, right?

    Xiang Li: ???

    Anyang: ???

    A short whileter, Zhi Jiugong''s beautiful voice began to echo in the heavens above. "Congrattions to those that have cleared this trial. There are 600 of you that have cleared this trial. Unfortunately, 250 of you have failed this trial and¡­ may not even have survived to hear me."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he did not know whether tough or cry at the dead cultivators. He took a quick look around him and saw that many of the 600 cultivators were injured as well.

    Unfortunately, the same could not be say for the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Lin Antian; they were all uninjured.

    Zhi Jiugong continued to say, "All of you will be receiving 2 million high grade spirit stones when the 3 day arena trial has ended. You will now be taken to the next trial of the day where a reward of 3 million high grade spirit stones will await you. However if you fail in the next trial, you have to pay a 2 million high grade spirit stones penalty. But as a small constion for those that fail the next trial, we will be giving you a free ticket to the Extreme Bliss Colosseum."

    Then she said coolly, "To the next trial¡­"

 Chapter 518 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (1)

    Ji Yuan''s maidens had been watching Ji Yuan from the arena spector stands and they were cursing him softly.

    "What is Ji Yuan doing?"

    "He has almost failed the trial."

    Feng Minyue was muttering, "Why is he with Maiden Ye Jing?"

    Bai Qianfeng was muttering softly, "Do you think that Ji Yuan did not know that we are watching him?"

    Ling Feiyue asked her curiously, "Why do you say so?"

    Bai Qianfeng weakly answered, "He may think that he is in a trial that is simr to the Dream Trial where the outsiders can''t see him."

    Little Princess panicky said, "You don''t say it. I don''t want him to copte with anyone inside. There are 30 000 people that are watching him¡­"

    Yang Mi was bbergasted, "Surely not?"

    Yu Jingjing weakly said, "Isn''t he with Maiden Ye Jing for that purpose?"

    "What are you all doing here?!" All of a sudden a fascinating voice said as she appeared next to them and she had an upper mask on her face, revealing her stunning thin red lips, "This isn''t the ce for you to be here!"

    All the maidens were now staring at this masked maiden with a sexy red skirt for she was Yun Chi.

    Ling Feiyue was startled to see her, "Yun Chi! Why are you here?!"

    Even Bai Qianfeng was startled and she was stammering, "Yun¡­Chi¡­"

    Yun Chi said coldly, "Didn''t I tell Ji Yuan not toe to this ce already? Why did hee here for? Is he here to enjoy himself in the vices here?"

    When she had said that, many of the maidens were flustered with shame; in just a few short days, they had indeed seen many things that they should not have seen.

    Yun Chi looked around them and asked angrily as though she wanted to strangle Ji Yuan, "Where is he?"

    Little Princess pointed to the imagery that was being disyed in the middle of the arena as she weakly said, "He is inside."

    Yun Chi almost fainted on the spot, "What is he doing in there for?"

    Ling Feiyue made a weak smile, "Ji Yuan says he is going in there to create a ruckus to attract the attention of the Death God Mingwang. Possibly to duel with him."

    Bai Qianfeng weakly interrupted, "Actually I think he is looking for you Yun Chi..."

    She was the only that knew of Yun Chi real identity but could not disclose to anyone that Yun Chi was actually the Death God Mingwang.

    Yun Chi rolled her golden eyes with great astonishment, "What? He is looking for me?!"

    She almost really fainted again when she had heard that Ji Yuan was trying to look for her here.

    Meanwhile Yu Jingjing was weakly trying to exin for Ji Yuan to Yun Chi, "Our lord Ji Yuan actually did not want to enter the arena but he had said that it was the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress that have challenged him inside."

    Yang Mi nodded quickly, hoping that Yun Chi would not be angry with Ji Yuan, "That''s right!"<sub> </sub>

    Yun Chi gasped softly, "What did you just say?"

    Then she took a quick scan at the imagery that was in the middle, "They are inside too as well¡­ what is going on here?"

    Feng Minyue exined quietly, "He kept talking about a fake Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress¡­ we really don''t know what he was talking about."

    Yun Chi began to sigh softly.

    Seeing Yun Chi expression, Bai Qianfeng sent her a divine whisper to ask: Senior Sister, do you know what is going on?

    Bai Qianfeng had called Yun Chi her senior sister because Yun Chi did not want her to call her as a prot¨¦g¨¦ master even though technically she was her prot¨¦g¨¦.

    Yun Chi answered her weakly: They are actually my prot¨¦g¨¦s and this is actually my immortal Avatar Profound Art that they are using. Even though they are life-like but they are merely puppets with limited functions. But in Bliss City where the cultivators cannot harm each other, it is perfect for their uses."

    Bai Qianfeng was truly startled: They are actually your prot¨¦g¨¦s? And they can actually master something asplicated as the Avatar Profound Art?

    She had remembered that Ji Yuan had been fighting the Avatar of the Death God Mingwang. Even though the Avatar of the Death God Mingwang was not as powerful as the original, it was enough to give Ji Yuan some hell.

    Yun Chi nodded: They actually have a monstrous genius and should have ascended to the Immortal Divine Realm a long time ago. But they have stayed behind so that they can help my cause. Unfortunately, my cause has now changed and I have returned here to help them to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm.

    Bai Qianfeng asked Yun Chi: Are you able to stop this arena trial and get Ji Yuan back here?

    Yun Chi sighed softly: Once the arena trial has started, there is nothing that I can do to stop it. We can only watch and pray that Ji Yuan survives.

    She was not only praying for Ji Yuan to survive but she was also praying for the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress to survive.

    What are their real bodies doing inside the arena trial?

    Dream Mist had kept quiet and was even smiling in their midst; it was because she could not only hear the conversations between Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi but she had long figured out that the Lovely Empress was using the Avatar Profound Art and that she was only using a puppet to deceive everyone.

    Just as the maidens were discussing about Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong had teleported everyone to a new location now and that was the second trial.

    Ji Yuan found himself in a dimly lit passage all of a sudden and he was alone.

    "Where am I? I am in a maze?"

    Zhi Jiugong pronounced her voice above the darkness and coolly exined, "As you can see, all of you are now in a maze. You have 24 hours toplete the trial of this maze and to score 6 points¡­"

    Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators inside the maze were blinking their eyes; 6 points? How do we score 6 points?

    "It is actually very simple. If you team up with the same gender, you will automatically get 3 points. But it is only limited to just two persons. If you team up with another cultivator of a different gender, you will get only 1 point. But there is no limit to the points that you can earn. If you team up with 6 other cultivators, you will get 6 points. All you need to do, is to wait for the trial to finish. It is really as simple as that. If you copte with a person in here, you will also get another 3 points. Killing 1 cultivator however will gain you 3 points as well."

    All the cultivators were gasping; did she just say if they can copte with two people then they canplete this trial?

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: So we are going to bang that Smiling Divine Maiden and Lovely Empress toplete this trial?

    Ji Yuan frowned at Xiang Li: We are finding 6 other cultivators and to form a group.

    Zhi Jiugong had paused for a while for the rules of the second trial to sink in before she smiled, "Friends or Foes, it is for you to decide. Let the trial begins now."

 Chapter 519 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (2)

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixie was now smiling to herself when she was teleported to the second trial. It was because she had already known the oue of this trial and the method topass perfectly; it was all due to her Spirit Divination Compass, an emperor-step profound artefect.

    While it may appeared that she was taken to a location of the second trial and was alone just like the other 649 cultivators, it was all but a clever deception.

    As she walked forward and made several turns in the maze, including walking down the steps of the maze to a deeper level, she was the first cultivator to have encountered another cultivator.

    And this cultivator was none other than the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who was also smiling at her as she pretended that this was just an idental coincidence.

    Immediately these two maidens had pped hands and were smiling at each other for they had already scored 3 points for being a pair. And they had no other intention to pair with any others.

    Then they began to walk forward and soon saw the next cultivator who was injured and much weaker than them.

    This cultivator name was Fatso Pang and he was immediately smiling when he saw them; it was because if he was able to copte with them, then he would be able to score 3 points each for a total of 6 points and he would be able to pass the trial easily.

    So he began to greet them lecherously, "So who do we have here? It is the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress-"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was the first to strike at him while he was still greeting them; she had immediately disyed her internal profound arts and a burst of profound power began to burst into the face of Fatso Pang.

    Before he could react and was astonished how profound was the internal profound power of the Smiling Divine Maiden, he was punched six more times and his golden bones were scattered.

    As he fell down onto the ground, the Smiling Divine Maiden had received 3 points at the same time. That was when she had stopped her attack. She did not care if her opponent was really dead or not once her objective was achieved.

    Now she had achieved 6 points and had passed her trial.

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu however gave Fatso Pang a kick that smashed his face because he was a most despicable and lecherous cultivator in Bliss City, "Better to make sure. These golden celestials are able to regenerate their hearts and bones as long as they still have a single vital breath."

    Afterward, they began to walk left and up to another level before encountering another cultivator who was renowned for his lecherous ways.

    Like Fatso Pang, he was also thinking of bedding these two peerless maidens and scoring his 6 points for passing the trial. So when he saw them, he was really excited and especially more when the Lovely Empress was looking delightfully at him with great loveliness.

    Just as he thought that he could copte with her, the Lovely Empress had disyed her internal profound power arts to send him smashing thunderously over the thick celestium walls with an explosive debris.

    The surprised cultivator managed to cough out, "Internal profound practitioner-"

    Paaaaa!!!!!!

    The Lovely Empress had smashed him with several bouts of powerful profound force until he was left for dead within the celestium walls.

    Now she had 6 points as well to pass this trial.

    The Smiling Divine Maidenmented, "Isn''t this a little too brutal?"

    It was because celestium walls were extremely hard to crack and this showed that the Lovely Empress had used alot of profound power.

    But the Lovely Empress merely smiled, "He deserves it."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a faint smile, "The first part of our n is nowpleted. Now for the second part."

    They had cheated via the Spirit Divination Compass. While the trial appeared to be stacked against them, it was actually helping them.

    The Lovely Empress smiled, "You mean, it is time for us to kill Ji Yuan now?"

    They were not afraid ofmunicating with each other because the arena spectors could only see their imagery from the outside but not hear them.<sub> </sub>

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled, "Ji Yuan will never suspect he is already in our carefully crafted trap."

    -

    -

    -

    Meanwhile at the viewing stands of the arena, Yun Chi was still in a state of disbelief at what Ji Yuan had done. He had not only entered the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind but he had also entered the arena as a contestant.

    Ling Feiyue weakly muttered and was awkward, "He is a little addicted to the trials."

    Ji Yuan was known by many to have entered the same trial multiple times even though the trial rewards were sometimes pathetic.

    Little Princess who had been keeping tabs on him in the past said, "He needs to kick this bad habit of his."

    Yu Jingjing was protesting weakly, "Actually he is only trying to fight the Death God Mingwang and to find you, Yun Chi."

    Yun Chi hummed coldly to Yu Jingjing, "Do you think he is able to defeat the Death God Mingwang by making a ruckus here?"

    Although Ji Yuan had not found the Death God Mingwang but Yun Chi had found his group first. It was because she had spotted them from afar as they were all attractive beauties. When grouped together, they were such a great sight that many of the lecherous cultivators were already looking in their way.

    Yun Chi had of course appeared incognito. As the Death God Mingwang, she was interested in the performances of her foes and that was why she was here.

    However she was hiding her identity as the Death God Mingwang and not even Zhi Jiugong knows of her true identity.

    She had a dark brooding look as she thought that this may be the work of the Dragon Faction? The trials were actually designed by the Deste Dragon God Longdi and he had broken many saintess whenever he was here. That was why the trials were so depraved due to the constitution of the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    "Everyone. I want all of you to close your eyes in meditation. Do not even think of opening your eyes to look into the imageries in the arena trial for they will destroy you. I repeat, do not open your eyes."

    Yang Mi was protesting, "Then how do we know if Ji Yuan is going to be alright?"

    Yun Chi said coldly, " I will be watching. If anyone of you dares to open your eyes, I will kill you personally myself."

    She was not directing her words toward Dream Mist because she was not part of Ji Yuan''s group. Whether she was affected by the deprave power of the trial, she truly did not care.

    Then she said to Bai Qianfeng via a secret divine whisper: Only you are allowed to view the imagineries for you are a goddess of the ninth immortal positioning and is above the emotion lust. In fact, this will be good for your cultivation and may even help you to advance in your cultivation.

    Bai Qianfeng acknowledged and answered nonchntly: I will only watch Ji Yuan and not the others. I have no interest in anyone but my lord Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi sighed and asked Bai Qianfeng: Do you think that this idiot knows we can see him from the outside?

    Bai Qianfeng answered weakly: I hope so...

    --------------------------

    Author Note: There are 27 chapters this week. I a little buzy next week so cross fingers.

    Quick update: A quick fix was made to change thest profound item to deity-step for Chapter 503. After the saint level, it will be the emperor and the deity level.

 Chapter 520 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (3)

    On the spector stand of the arena, Zhi Jiugong who had just finished announcing the rules of the second arena trial was now quietly looking at the imageries inside the arena.

    She could see that the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were the first to move in their respective area in the trial and they had quickly joined hands. When they did, they had quickly moved on and had even killed two cultivators in such a short time.

    This shocked many of the cultivators who were watching as spectors for they had merely thought of them as mere weaklings for any male cultivators and that they would be in for a ''great coption show''. However these two maidens had killed two golden saints and had shocked many.

    "What is going on?"

    "Not one but two cultivators actually got killed?!"

    "These two maidens are actually so formidable?"

    "Maybe they are actually injured?"

    "This trialsts for 24 hours so it is actually not over yet."

    Zhi Jiugong sighed softly; she knew that the first part of their n waspleted.

    This trial had a 24 hours limit because this was actually the real trial for them to screw the cultivators.

    The first trial had only a 2 hour time limit. It was actually just a bait to catch the unsuspecting first timer contestants and the spectors off guarded; the 2 hour limit was actually too little for anyone to do any coption and most would only be interested to run to their destination goal in the quickest time. If they had stopped then they might die.

    But the 24 hours trial however, provided the contestants plenty of time and dark spaces to set their dark desires into y. And this was the reason why this was actually the real trial.

    Zhi Jiugong heaved a soft sigh: This was the trial to screw Ji Yuan...

    There was a heartaching pain in her heart when she had thought of the fate that Ji Yuan would be facing. But she quickly convinced herself that Ji Yuan was but another lecherous cultivator and that he deserved to die in this ce. Moreover he was also trying to kill her master.

    Then she caught sight of a red dress maiden that donned an upper face mask and she was in the midst of Ji Yuan''s maidens.

    She was suddenly caution of this red dress maiden immediately. It was because she seemed extremely formidable despite her casual pose and moreover she had somehow evaded her divine sense to pop up suddenly in this ce.

    Who is this new maiden? I have never seen her before...

    Then she was startled to see that most of the maidens were starting to close their eyes and they were actually meditating in this ce.

    The mysticws of this ce had stated that no one could disrupt the arena and to leave the ce.

    She immediately thought: Have they seen through our ruses already? It is impossible and not at this stage...

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had found himself in a dimly lit dark maze. Like many of the cultivators that were trapped with him in the trial, he was alone and was walking slowly as he explored the maze.

    Ji Yuan was telling Xiang Li and Anyang: We got to move slow in case there are hidden traps here. So we have to score 6 points. All we need to do is to find 6panions to be in our group and we can clear this trial. It doesn''t look too hard at all.

    Anyang pointed out: We can also kill 2 cultivators to pass this trial.

    Ji Yuan was frowning immediately: I may not be a real hero but I am not an unorthodox cultivator. I don''t kill recklessly.

    Xiang Li chuckled: Big Brother, why don''t you bang two maidens instead? That will get you 6 points as well.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan began to ponder hard: There are only 3 maidens here that I can consider banging if they beg me to. As for the rest, there is no need to.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: You mean Maiden Ye Jing, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden?

    Anyang could not resist a smile: That Lovely Empress will never want to copte with you. You can forget about her.

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed a dark look: Well, I am saying if she begs me to.

    It was obvious that he was still sour about losing the chance to bang the Lovely Empress free of charge and this killed his motivation for this trial.

    Anyang warned: We don''t need to copte with anyone to pass this trial. There is no need to sacrifice our lord''s body in this trial. I suggest that we kill 2 evil cultivators instead.

    Ji Yuanughed: Anyang, what are you afraid of? We are in the trial now and no one can see us. Haha...

    Xiang Li giggled: That is right! No one can see us anyway!

    Anyang muttered weakly: The two of you have loose morals...

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: That is Xiang Li. I am actually proposing that we find 6 cultivators to join me in a group.

    Anyang answered weakly: I feel that this is a weird trial. What if the others can see us?

    Ji Yuan frowned: You mean the arena spectors? Of course they can''t! We are in a trial now, you know.I had been in hundreds of trials but I have never seen anyone with the ability to see what is going on in a trial. Xiang Li, have you?

    Xiang Li giggled: Of course not! All trials are personal and secret! Have you Anyang?

    Anyang answered awkwardly: I have not yet too but it does not mean such a trial did not exist...

    Ji Yuan interrupted Anyang: It is impossible. The two of you are Trial Spirits and yet you know that such a trial did not exist too. If the others can see us then this is not a trial anymore. Haha...

    He continued proudly: You know Anyang. Since I know so much about the trials and more than you, I think I can be a Trial Spirit too. Haha...

    This prompted Anyang to chuckle and so did Xiang Li.

    Soon the three of them wereughing in agreement; all trials were secret and no outsiders would be able to view it.

    When Dream Mist had secretly overheard them in the soul sea, she was held a little speechless by their ignorances and she could only sigh in secret.

    Ji Yuan had entered the arena trial as a contestant and not as a spector. If he could see that the spectors would be able to see him from the imageries outside, he would have vomited blood immediately.

    But he was not an MC that knows everything so he had simply assumed that this was how the trial works.

    Just as Ji Yuan was talking to Xiang Li and Anyang in his soul sea, he had also taken a right turning in the maze and he saw a famr maiden in front of him.

    That was Ye Jing.

    Ji Yuan was the first to call her out, "Senior Maiden Ye? We have met so soon again."

    Ye Jing was smiling when she saw that it was Ji Yuan, "How fortunate that we have met again."

    Ji Yuan wasughing, "Haha, that is really fortunate. I am so happy to have the Great Heroine Ye in my group now. Time for me to find 5 more cultivators that can join us..."

    Ye Jing then returned a sly smile when she had heard him.

 Chapter 521 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (4)

    Ji Yuan was actually delighted to see Ye Jing in the maze. It was because he was sure that she would readily agree to form a group with him and they would both receive a +1 Points. And he would then need to find another five more cultivators to join the group in order to clear this trial.

    So he immediately told her of his n.

    Ye Jing winked and smiled beautifully, "Why not?

    Immediately they received a profound voice that told them that they would both receive a temporary +1 points and these +1 points would remain until they had decided to part ways.

    Ye Jingughed, "What a pity. If we are both from the same gender then we would have received a head start of 3 points."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Haha. But it will just be a temporary +3 points. Once we have found a third cultivator to join us then our points will be dropped to +2 points."

    Ye Jing had suddenly tiptoed to him and gently stroked his cheek before she whispered with great allure, "Have you ever consider this. What if we copte with each other? Then won''t we simply will have received a permanent +3 points? And because we are also in the same group, then we will also have a 4 points head start. After that all we need to do is to find 2 more cultivators and then we can clear this trial."

    Ji Yuan was startled for he had never thought of this situation before. If given a chance, he would have banged Ye Jing because she was the Great Heroine of the Nine Celestial Fraternity and one of the two greatest beauties there. The other being the Lovely Empress.

    To copte with the Great Heroine and Great Saintess Ye Jing was like every male cultivator''s fantasy dream and Ji Yuan was not an exception. He had immediately be hard-on by this thought as he had thought of this several times. But when he had thought that Ye Jing had copted with so many other male cultivators, he felt being greened and he was frowning...

    So he answered, "Senior Sister Ye must be pulling my legs right? I think this is a little unappropriated. Moreover, there are a total of 650 cultivators here. It is going to be easy for us to find another 5 more cultivators. The end goal is to survive this trial and get the 3 million high grade spirit stones as a reward. I''m sure that all the cultivators will be more than willing to co-operate."

    Ye Jing loosened her slender hand on his cheek as she smiled alluringly, "You are still too young, too simple. You can''t depend on stuff like co-operation for the cultivators. But..."

    She began to rub against his chest with her dedicate body, "But your Senior Sister Ye will definitely listen to you because I like you."

    When Ji Yuan felt Ye Jing''s rubbings, he was actually feeling hot and he had almost shouted loudly. "Let''s do it then."

    But something else had pulled him back and it was the image of the Lovely Empress that had suddenly appeared in his mind to rebuke him; she was mocking him and saying, "I just know that you are too poor and wants it free of charge."

    This caused Ji Yuan to frown immediately and he had startled Ye Jing because she had thought that he was frowning at her.

    Therefore she smiled at him coyly, "This matter is too early. You can still consider it. After all, you are a man and has nothing to lose."

    Then she had turned around to say, "Come Junior Brother Ji Yuan, we should be on our way now."

    Actually Ji Yuan was frowning at the Lovely Empress that had suddenly shed in his mind and when Ye Jing had backed off, it was already toote for him to react with words.

    This caused Ji Yuan to have a regretful look and he began to curse the Lovely Empress: Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress, it is all your fault. Why did you have to pop in my mind at such a worst timing?

    And he could hear the Lovely Empress scolding him mockingly: Ji Yuan you are just too shameless. You are really a free of charge man!

    Even Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you are rejecting Maiden Ye Jing?

    As Ji Yuan did not want to exin to Xiang Li that it was the horrible Lovely Empress that had caused him to hesitate earlier, he had decided to keep his silence instead; rather than confusing Xiang Li by mentioning that he had suddenly thought of the Lovely Empress who was mocking him.

    And so Ji Yuan and Ye Jing continued to navigate their way through the maze which towered at least 10m in height and width. Moreover this maze also had multiple floors.

    After 1 hour had passed, Ji Yuan began toment that it was actually not easy to find another cultivator.

    Ye Jing was breathing heavily as she said to him and there was a look of exasperation in her golden eyes, "Junior Brother Ji Yuan, do you have to be so slow and you have to keep looking for traps?"

    Ji Yuan protested stubbornly, "Senior Sister Ye, if we are not in a maze then I won''t be so careful. But since we are in a maze, we ought to lookout for traps and hidden passages. It never hurts to be a little careful."

    Ye Jing said exasperatingly, "There are no traps here. We can walk a lot faster if you didn''t keep slowing down."

    "Oh no. This is safer this way. Trust me." Ji Yuan insisted.

    At the trial where Ji Yuan had found Xiang Li, he had ended up annoying Ling Feiyue unwittingly and she was extremely sarcastic with his choices too.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan shouted, "Look what I''ve found!"

    It was actually a hidden secret passage that led to the floor below.

    Ye Jing was stunned when she saw that Ji Yuan had really found a secret passage.

    Ji Yuan disyed a delightful look, "Look Senior Sister Ye, I didn''t lie to you. There is indeed a secret passage here. Haha..."<sub> </sub>

    Anyang who was also not expecting Ji Yuan to be able to find any traps or secret passages were blinking her eyes: I can''t believe it...

    Ji Yuan entered the secret stairs below and he was saying aloud to Ye Jing, "Come with me Senior Sister Ye and I can promise you that you will be safe with me as your guide. Haha..."

    Ye Jing smiled weakly behind him, "Alright..."

    As she entered the secret passage with Ji Yuan, she was startled that the secret passage behind her had closed again.

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere in the maze.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were now at a cross section of the maze and they were looking a little perplexed.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was divining with her fingers while keeping the Spirit Divination Compass a secret inside her sleeves, "Weird. By now, Ji Yuan would have copted either with Ye Jing or fight with Lin Antian while we would secretly appear behind his back via another passage. But where is he now? Either way, he would have exhausted his profound strength and would be opened to our attacks."

    The Lovely Empress had a look of surprise but she was smiling with great loveliness, "It is impossible for the Spirit Divination Compass to be wrong, am I right? Or else why is that we can''t find him here? We need to recalcte our positions again to avoid this Lin Antian."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden muttered, "All the possible routes have already been calcted by the Spirit Divination Compass. It is an emperor ss profound artefact. It won''t be wrong by such arge margin."

    The Lovely Empress rolled her golden eyes before she giggled slowly, "Surely he can''t be that slow, am I right? Or he is such azy cultivator that he has decided to stay at the same spot?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shook her head as she ceased her usual smiles, "We had already thought of this possibility and had nted Ye Jing next to him to ensure that he would move on."

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly asking the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Sister Chu, I have spent a lot of efforts to bring the real Ye Jing to our master. I''ve thought that our master will like her to be his prot??g?? as Ye Jing is not only a great beauty but her talent is also as high as mine. But our master didn''t even look at Ye Jing or at any of the potential cultivators that can join our Death Faction. Why is that so? And he has also refused our Death Faction for participating in the Extreme Bliss Colosseum. Isn''t master acting a little weird?"

    When Ye Jing had entered the Extreme Bliss Colosseum, she had endured very well till the very end of the show until her clothes were ripped apart by the male cultivators and she had cked out due to channeling much of her profound strength to resist against the temptations of the show.

    It was the Lovely Empress that had rescued her because she did not want Ye Jing to be soiled by these lecherous men. She also did not want Ye Jing to go back to the Nine Celestial Fraternity with the knowledge that she was a harlot in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    Even though there were many cultivators from the Nine Celestial Fraternity that could recognized the Lovely Empress but she did not care for their opinions because only Ye Jing had the same renown as her; that being the two greatest beauties of the Nine Celestial Fraternity. And she had thought of dragging Ye Jing to her level by offering her as a a prot??g?? to the Death God Mingwang.

    Because the Lovely Empress was a monstrous genius, she was more proficiency in the Avatar Profound Art than the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong. She could not only create an Avatar for herself but she could also create an Avatar for Ye Jing while she was in aa. For Ye Jing''s Avatar, she had actually imnted false memories of the Extreme Bliss Colosseum and her Avatar was also subjected to her subtle suggestions.

    See Chapter 508 (When the Lovely Empress had tried to present the real Ye Jing to the Death God Mingwang).

    The Smiling Divine Maiden immediately returned a look of disapproval, "It is not our ce to question our master. Why do you want to ask so many questions in the first ce for?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled weakly before she changed the questions with a delightful smile, "This Ji Yuan is really too arrogant. He thinks that he is the most beautiful cultivator in Bliss City and that all the female cultivators should be in his bed. I am going to kill him myself and make sure that he will never see another day again."

    When she was first aware of Ji Yuan, she had decided to pay him a personal visit to see what kind of a person that he was for daring to try to kill and wound her master.

    ? That night, she had caught hold of his hands and was looking at a most beautiful cultivator and she had thought: He is that Ji Yuan?

    But their conversations soon turned ugly and this Ji Yuan had even dared to order her to strip or else he would not believe that she was the real Lovely Empress. She had wanted to leave for an hour to bring her Avatar instead but this Ji Yuan was too shrewd and had refused to let her leave the room to do so.

    In the end she was forced to sacrifice herself for her master by stripping herself in front of Ji Yuan; she had thought that this was a necessary sacrifice to keep their ns of killing Ji Yuan a secret but instead she had only felt humiliation and she also had a mixed feeling when she was stripping in front of him.

    She really could not describe this feeling when she was stripping because she had never stripped in front of a man before. Before she knew it, tears began to flood in her eyes for the first time in many centuries and all of a sudden, she was not willing to strip for her master anymore or for any cause.

    Then Ji Yuan had told her to dress up and that was enough; he would go to the arena after all and there was no need for her to strip anymore.

    She was actually relieved.

    Since then, she had been thinking more about Ji Yuan than her own master...

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was slowly looking at the delightful Lovely Empress who was now telling her, "I will surely kill this Ji Yuan. What a hypocrite. He didn''t even want me for free of charge..."

    But she could not find any cause to ease her anxieties. It was because she had noticed that the Lovely Empress was especially delightful when she was talking about Ji Yuan and this was already the umpteen times that she had mentioned Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 522 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (5)

    Zhi Jiugong was gently ying her divine zither while the second trial was going on.

    She had activated a small array that muted her surroundings from the rest of the arena so she would not be disturbed by anyone save for her eight apanying maids who were all fourth level Immortal Celestials. These maids of hers were all half a step away from attaining as a full golden celestial.

    Right now she was ying the ''Pure Tranquil Melody'' on her divine zither. This melody had the effect of suppressing all emotion of lusts for the listener. However she did not need to y it for herself or to her maids to suppress the emotion of lust; it was because this was actually a secret spirit and soul profound art of the Death Faction and they all knew how to recite this intricate form.

    That was why she could send any of her maids to any of the dangerous trials of Bliss City, including the Extreme Bliss Colosseum and they still would not be affected by anything that was happening around them.

    Right now she was just ying the ''Pure Tranquil Melody'' just for her own amusements and also partly because Ji Yuan had helped her to repair the profound strings of her divine zither and this was the very first music that she had yed for him.

    All of a sudden she had turned ashen when she had suddenly thought of Ji Yuan; if Ji Yuan could understand her music, this would mean that he was already highly aplished in a certain highly advanced recite heart profound skill and like her, he may have already attained the cultivation peak of the Heavens and Earth as One. And cultivators at this level were all immune to the outside emotions that could affect them.

    Suddenly there was a shocked look in her golden eyes; that would also mean that Ji Yuan was someone that could control his desires very well and not be moved tomit fornications in this ce...

    Indeed. While Ji Yuan was someone that could be moved by his own desire or some said by Xiang Li to dominate and to have more harem members but he was unmoved by lust and he was never someone to scheme to forcefully dominate those that he had liked.

    Some may even say he is more moved by his own face and pride than anything else but that is another story for another day.

    Just as Zhi Jiugong was muttering, "Sisters, I think that we may have a miscalction..."

    She was suddenly shocked again. It was because she could see that Ji Yuan had suddenly found a secret passage in one of the many imageries below and he had gone in another direction.

    "This, this..."

    She was literally speechless.

    Firstly Ji Yuan had not touched Ye Jing even though they had given him plenty of chances to be together. Secondly, he had found a secret passage and gone somewhere else.

    In another imagery, she could see that the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were looking a little baffled now and was wandering the passage ways aimlessly. She knew that they were looking for Ji Yuan and had nted several knives along the way to weaken him. But this Ji Yuan simply did not follow their well-crafted script...

    All of a sudden she was startled to see something else in the imageries; she had suddenly caught sight of a bulky man with a dark cloak over him and he was Vice Steward Gu Sangu and he was the brother of Steward Gu Bugu. Both of them were from the Dragon Faction.

    Thebat level of Vice Steward Gu Sangu was not weaker than her and as the dragon-demonic race, they could even transform into draconoids, a super metaphysical humanoid with resilient body and they even had leathery wings. When transformed, he was stronger than her.

    She was really shocked to see Vice Steward Gu Sangu inside the arena trial because this Gu Sangu and his brother the Steward Gu Bugu had been lusting after the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress for a long time now but there was nothing that they could do to them due to the special mysticws of this ce.

    But in the arena, it was different. Cultivators were allowed to hurt one another. And it was obvious that Gu Sangu knew that the real Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were inside the arena as a contestant.

    She took a quick look around her and she had quickly spotted Steward Gu Bugu as one of the arena spectors in the crowd.

    "He is also here... that means that they are in this together..."

    Now the Dragon Faction and the Death Faction were nominal allies. It was because the Great Demon God, the Deste Dragon God and the Death God had founded this wondend together as a base to steal the profound treasures of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The Great Demon God had shown no real interest in this ce in running this ce except for his Evil Cultivation Pce. Therefore he had delegated the running of this ce to the Deste Dragon God and the Death God.

    Although the Great Demon God had shown no real interest in this ce but this ce was a strategic asset that must be governed because this was where the bulk of all the profound riches of the Evil Cultivation Pce hade from.<sub> </sub>

    The Deste Dragon God had founded the Dragon Faction while the Death God had founded the Death Faction to run this ce together because one of them woulde every 500 years to collect the massive tributes of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    At the beginning, the Dragon Faction was the dominant force of this wondend for Steward Gu Bugu and his brother the vice steward Gu Sangu were also one of the demonic races of the Deste Divine Realm and they were held in high regard by the Deste Dragon God.

    Also in the beginning the Deste Dragon God had visited this wondend more than the Death God. However he soon grew bored of thisnd because there were no saintesses that could take his body without breaking their backs and the mysticws of this ce prevented him from wantonly taking any maidens that could have pleased him.

    Although the Deste Dragon God was also punished by the mysticws here and suffered several bacshes, it did not affect his cultivation core since he was half-step Divinity.

    Also a great battle took ce thousands of years ago when the Deste Dragon God began to battle with a powerful cultivator called the White Sword Monarch from the Endless Celestial Fraternity. At that time the Deste Dragon God had only regained his profound strength to the eighth immortal positioning and he had thought that he was an invincible existence until he had met the White Sword Monarch.

    In that battle the Deste Dragon God was forced to use his trump card and transformed into his true draconoid form and he had defeated the White Sword Monarch.

    Till to this day, Zhi Jiugong could not forget how terrifying this transformed form was and she still shivered to this day when she had remembered it.

    Although the White Sword Monarch was defeated by the transformed Deste Dragon God in the end, he still managed to escape from this wondend and the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Since that day, the Evil Cultivation Pce had marked him and he had never entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth again.

    As for the spectors in the arena, the Deste Dragon God had massacred everyone except for the Dragon Faction and the Death Faction by extending the arena trial to include the spectors.

    The White Sword Monarch had never ascended too because he was now aware of the threat that could be posed by the Deste Dragon God Longdi and till today, he had waited in the White Sword Celestial n of the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce however did not take further action against the White Sword Monarch mainly because his celestial n was a major power in the Celestial Realm and was even the most powerful celestial n in the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

    Both the Evil Cultivation Pce and the White Sword Celestial n had both decided to y the waiting game instead.

    Since that fateful battle in the arena, the Deste Dragon God had rarelye again and he had spent the time to recuperate instead. Rather it was now the Death God Mingwang that hade more often nowadays.

    And the Dragon Faction was actually quite resentful of the Death God Mingwang even though they did not show it openly and was even respectful to him for he was one of the three True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm.

    Although the Death Faction was more powerful now due to the protection of the Death God Mingwang but that was only once every 500 years.

    In secret, Steward Gu Bugu and his brother Vice Steward Gu Sangu were always pressuring for the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong to copte with them. It was their continuous refusals that had offended them and they had disliked the Death Faction.

    Steward Gu Bugu was of course tired of ying with their dolls and he wanted much more and that was to dominate the real Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

    Just yesterday, he had even purposely asked the Death God Mingwang if he was going to the arena but the Death God Mingwang simply stated that he was not free to make his appearance.

    Zhi Jiugong suddenly had two frightening premonitions and she was shivering.

    One, did the two brothers Gu Bugu and his brother Gu Sangu had a way ofmunicating with each other? And Steward Gu Bugu was outside the arena to warn him?

    Two, is Ji Yuan in cahoots with the Dragon Faction all this while?

    Author Note: You didn''t think the Dragon Faction has been forgotten, right?

 Chapter 523 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (6)

    Inside the maze trial.

    2 hours had passed now.

    Ji Yuan could not believe what he was seeing now.

    Ye Jing had bumped into a fat and ugly cultivator that was roaming the passage way and she was pleasantly surprised to see him.

    Ji Yuan had also recognized this ugly cultivator too because he had seen Ye Jing with two ugly cultivators previously.

    Ye Jing smiled as she promptly introduced her friend to Ji Yuan, "This is Jian Ba. He and his brother Jian Ren are renowned as the Twin ck Sparrows. He is also from the Nine Celestial Fraternity."

    Then she giggled, "He is from the unorthodox fraternity so he is actually an unorthodox cultivator."

    Ji Yuan said unhappily when he had heard that the Great Heroine Ye Jing was actually in bed with an unorthodox cultivator, "Well Jiang Ba, how are you. I am Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I am ''so pleased'' to meet you."

    Jiang Ba took a look at Ji Yuan beforeughing out aloud, "He is from the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Where is his beard then?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Look here. I have a n to get us all 6 points in this trial. If you were to join us then we would all get an additional of +2 points.

    Jian Ba took a look at Ji Yuan before he smiled, "Why not?"

    After Jian Ba had agreed to Ji Yuan''s n, there was an invisible pronouncement that they would all get 2 points.

    Ji Yuan was looking pleased and now all they would need to do is to find 4 more cultivators and they couldplete this trial.

    He had estimated that 2 hours had passed and they still had 22 hours more.

    He grinned to himself: Haha. This trial is not hard at all!

    And so the three of them began to walk together as a group.

    But after a while, Ji Yuan was getting ufortable. It was because he was suddenly seeing that Jian Ba was hugging Ye Jing intimately.

    Jian Ba was not only hugging Ye Jing intimately but he was also putting his hands under her robe and had even pulled up her skirt. And he seemed to be doing something to Ye Jing that caused her to fluster with great shyness.

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now because he knew what was going on.

    Xiang Li asked: Big Brother, did he just green you right in front of you? Kill him!

    Ji Yuan answered her: He isn''t greening me because I don''t have a rtionship with Senior Sister Ye...

    But in reality Ji Yuan had an ugly look because his goddess was now flirting with another cultivator and moreover he was an unorthodox cultivator. And this cultivator was also fat and ugly.

    All of a sudden Jian Ba turned to smile at Ji Yuan while holding onto Ye Jing, "Brother Ji Yuan. Can you wait here for a while? We are going to that corner for a while."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "As a golden celestial, you don''t need to pee. Why did you want to go that corner for?"

    Jian Baughed, "We are going to that corner to get our 3 points."

    Ye Jing was winking with great allure, "That''s right."

    It was only then was Ji Yuan aware of their purposes and he was startled, "What? You are really doing to do it in this ce? Do you need to replenish your profound strength?"

    Jian Baughed as he hugged Ye Jing tightly, "There is no need to wait till we need to replenish our profound strength. We can do it anytime."

    With that, he had taken Ye Jing to a corner.

    From the shadows of the passage way, Ji Yuan could see that Jian Ba and Ye Jing were hugging each other in apromising position and they were kissing. It was not long before long Ji Yuan could see the shadows of their clothing falling down around them.

    Then he could see that Jian Ba was now banging Ye Jing and she was making loud lewd sounds.

    Ji Yuan was seeing green now and he was clenching his fists; he could not believe that today he was now witnessing his goddess getting banged by another and he was powerless to stop them since they were both willing parties.

    After an hour of intense coption, both Jian Ba and Ye Jing had started to put on their clothes and they looked delightful.

    Ji Yuan began to grumble to Jian Ba, "What took you so long? I can finish it in 1 minute."

    Jian Ba looked at Ji Yuan before heughed aloud, "Brother Ji Yuan, do you need my tip to hold on longer?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    All of a sudden Ye Jing was giggling with gleefully, "I have +5 Points now. Because I have copted with Jian Ba, I have gained +3 Points permanently."

    Jian Ba was alsoughing, "I have +5 Points now as well. Haha."

    Ji Yuan looked at his miserable +2 Points and said nothing.

    Ye Jing was now looking at Ji Yuan, "Junior Brother Ji Yuan, if we copte together, I can gain another +3 Points. Can you help big sister over here? Then I can pass this trial and I can also help you to gain +3 Points."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Senior Sister Ye really knows how to tease this junior. There are still 21 hours left and we can easily find 1 more cultivator to join our group. Then you will have your +6 Points."

    All of a sudden Jian Ba was saying, "Weird. I feel much weaker now?"

    Ji Yuan gave him an ugly look, "That is because you just have a strenuous exercise so it is quite normal to feel a little weak. Do you need my tip in helping you to keep fit?"

    Jian Ba took a look at Ji Yuan andughed; it was because he knew that Ji Yuan was unhappy to see him copting with such an alluring beauty like Ye Jing and that he was envious of them.

    Just as the two of them were poking at each other, a short old man with long white beard was suddenly seen at the other end of the passage.

    Ye Jing and Jian Ba were bothughing softly as they said to Ji Yuan, "Herees 1 more cultivator but he seems to be going to the other way. Ji Yuan, don''t let him get away."<sub> </sub>

    When Ji Yuan saw this white hair old man, he had immediately sped to intercept him with a fierce look.

    And right before the eyes of a shocked Ye Jing and Jian Ba, Ji Yuan was actually beating up this white hair old man with his fists.

    A startled Ye Jing said, "Is he trying to kill this old man so that he can score +3 Points instead?"

    Jian Ba nodded, "He is smart. In this way, he will have the same points as us. And all we need to do is to find another cultivator to join our group."

    As Ji Yuan kicked and punched the white hair old man without any mercy, the white hair old man was also kicking and punching Ji Yuan at the same time.

    Soon both were yelling out loud at each other.

    They really did not show mercy at all!

    However the two of them had only disyed their profound strength to the fifth cultivation realm and it looked more like a minor fight than a real one.

    The white hair old man was yelling at Ji Yuan madly, "Ji Yuan, you dare to hit your old master?!"

    Ji Yuan shouted back with his fists, "This Ji Yuan is your grand daddy now and I am now a great saint!"

    Then he wasughing loudly, "Where have you been for the past two hundred years? I have thought that you have died below the great deste mists?"

    The white hair old man kicked Ji Yuan hard on his chest before he gave him a startled look, "What?! You are a great saint now? No wonder you can punch me so hard now."

    Ji Yuan patted his old master on his shoulder as he grinned, "Haha. I am also taller than you too!"

    The white hair old man muttered something incoherently before Ji Yuan continued, "This grand daddy has now taken over your broken sword sect and is also the sect leader of a new sect the Emperor Hall Sect. Do you think that it is time for you to repay me what you have owed me for 200 years of sect maintenance?"

    "You little rascal! I''ve made you my sect leader and the first thing that you have done is to beat your old master up and ask me for spirit stones?!" The short white hair old man was exasperated.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "And you have tortured me for over 200 years with your constant beatings and nightmare training. If I don''t beat you up today then I am not Ji Yuan. Moreover I am a great saint now, you loser sword saint."

    The short white hair old man frowned at Ji Yuan as he made the same expression, "If I am a loser sword saint, what about you? Aren''t you a loser sword saint as well? I almost can''t recognize your beardless look. Did your enemies happen to shave off your beard to humiliate you?"

    Ji Yuan stared unhappily, "Do I look like I have many enemies? Let me tell you this. I have no enemies in the Three Known Realms. Haha. I have erm, decided to cut off my beard myself..."

    "You didn''t happen to lose it during your breakthrough, am I right?" The short white hair old manughed aloud. "Didn''t I tell you to be careful, very careful, patience and very patience? Or else how did you even be a great saint now? Or are you just pulling my leg?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "If I show you my great saint profound animus then how matter how formidable your sword is, I am afraid that you are just an ant in my eyes now..." Then he emphasized. "Weak Old Master!"

    The short white hair old man frowned unhappily, "Darn you Ji Yuan. You ought to tame your attitude, especially toward your grand daddy..."

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "Wait a minute! I am your grand daddy now!"

    When Ji Yuan was a new fifth realm golden celestial, he had made a pact with his old master that whoever was the stronger of the two would be the grand daddy.

    The short white hair old man snorted, "Of all ces, you have toe to this ce. Are you courting your own death?"

    Ji Yuan grabbed his arm around the neck of the short white hair old man, "And what are you doing here then?"

    With that both of them were suddenlyughing now.

    The short white hair old man suddenly chuckled as he took Ji Yuan awhile to whisper, "I have heard that the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress are peerless the most when they are naked..."

    Ji Yuan suddenly put his fingers on the short white hair old man''s face and said coldly, "Don''t you have any funny ideas on them. They are mine."

    The short white hair old man: ...

    "Do you know that these two maidens are poisonous scorpions?" He was suddenly solemn.

    Ji Yuan snorted coldly, "I am afraid that this is none of your business. So what are you doing here?"

    The short white hair old man began to stroke his long white beard as he grumbled, "I don''t know how much you have spent on these dolls but it won''t be cheap. The sooner you get out of here the better. As for me, I am here to kill someone."

    Ji Yuan was curious immediately, "Old man, do you need my help?"

    The short white hair old man took a disgruntled look at Ji Yuan, "Do you think this old man needs your help?"

    Ji Yuan whispered even softly, "Why are you hiding like a thief? You have seen me in the contestant hall and at the end of the first trial, am I right? But you didn''t try to greet your grand daddy and to tell me that you are alive. Do you really want to cheat me of my whatever little spirit stones that I have left and also my meagre tears every time of the year that was your death anniversary?"

    The short white hair old man growled, "That is because you are always in the wrongpany. Is this my fault that I don''t want to talk to you?"

    Then he quickly put a hood over his head, "I am going to be discreet from now on. Go away and don''t bother me."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan said, "Look, I am gathering a group to score 6 points. Now I have 2 Points and if you join me, I will have +3 Points. Old man, are you going to help me or what?"

    The short white hair old man stared nkly at Ji Yuan for a while before he burst out withughter, "I didn''t expect you to be so slow. I have +6 Points already."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What? You mean you have banged two maidens already?"

    The short white hair old man had suddenly punched Ji Yuan in the face, "What are you talking about? I have killed two cultivators already."

    JI Yuan was now holding onto his face, "Then why didn''t you say so in the first ce..."

    But he quickly asked, "Old man, do we have secrets among us? Who are you nning to kill in this ce?"

    The short white hair old man whispered, "Alright since you are my direct prot??g??. I am going to kill the Death God Mingwang here."

    Ji Yuan was shocked: What? You are going to kill Yun Chi and my unborn daughter?!

    "What?" The short white hair old man had suddenly looked at Ji Yuan in the eyes, "You seem to know who the Death God Mingwang is?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he raised both his hands to indicate that he was not lying, "Of course not, old man. On my soul sea, I really don''t know any Death God Mingwang. Is he a powerful cultivator? Between us, there are naturally no secrets. Haha..."

 Chapter 524 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (7)

    Ji Yuan had one more cultivator in the group now and he was the short white hair old man.

    This short white hair old man did not talk to Ye Jing or Jian Ba. Instead he was talking to Ji Yuan nonstop. Or rather, Ji Yuan did not let him have the time to talk to anyone else.

    Ji Yuanughed. "You know old man. Your only use in this trial is to help me to score my point. Don''t be too sad that you are now weaker than I am. Hahahaha."

    He continued, "Old man, do you remember Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan?

    "You mean that two littlesses?" Said the short white hair old man with some fond memories. "I remembered that they are your first prot¨¦g¨¦s. They are both beautiful maidens¡­"

    "What are you talking about?" Ji Yuan interrupted rudely. "They both have potential and that is why I have recruited them for our Orthodox Sword Sect."

    The short white hair old man nodded, "I remembered Ye Chengxi. She really does have the potential to be a sword saint of her generation."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Well, she is a sword saint now."

    The short white old man stared at Ji Yuan, "I didn''t know that you can really teach? How did you do that without giving her any beatings?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly and he was stammering, "Well, she had be a sword saint while¡­ I was having my breakthrough¡­ for a hundred years."

    The short white hair old man: ¡­

    "Well, that isn''t the main point." Ji Yuan began tough aloud. "The main point is that I have taken both of them as my consorts now. Haha. Shangguan Yan is my first consort while Fairy Ye Chengxi is my second consort."

    The short white hair old man began to mutter weakly, "I can see that you have taken them both as your consorts because they are beautiful."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The short white hair old man began to say solemnly, "Since you have already got two wonderful consorts, you shouldn''t be in this ce. You are still young and you ought to umte more experiences first."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Well I am here because my third consort Ling Feiyue is also here."

    The short white hair old man was almost dumbfounded, "What you have actually taken Ling Feiyue as your consort?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially.

    During his old master time, there were two peerless beauties in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they were the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Therefore I am also the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect now. And even Xue Qianxue is also my consort."

    The short white hair old man was now staring nkly at Ji Yuan, "What did you just say? Just how many consorts do you have now?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well you can actually count the number of my consorts with my ten fingers."

    The short white hair old man heaved a sigh of relief, "That is less than ten and is still manageable."

    "I mean I brought less than 10 of them into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I can still count my other consorts outside with another ten fingers." Ji Yuan began to chuckle.

    The short white hair old man frowned immediately, "Ji Yuan, are you trying to pull my leg?"

    Ji Yuan took a weird look at his old master, "Old man, you sound like you have not been in the Deste Celestial Fraternity for a long time. What? You didn''t hear of my recent exploits?"

    The short white hair old manughed, "I am actually in another celestial fraternity now. When you are old, you tend to be affected by wanderlust more."

    Ji Yuan lowered his voice to say, "Well old man. I think that you are getting old now and I don''t know what feud do you have with that Death God Mingwang cultivator. I am young and I can help you to take care of him. Leave your feud to me."

    The short white hair old man took a curious look at Ji Yuan, "You must be hiding something, rascal."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "I am not?"

    The short white hair old man took another caution look at him before saying casually, "You are Ji Yuan alright. I remembered teaching you about the Death God Mingwang cultivator''s avatar array. But you seem to have forgotten about it."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Oh that Death God¡­ Haha¡­ old man, you have too many enemies and you have taught me too many things. How can I remember all your teachings? Haha¡­"

    The short white hair old man was suddenly solemn, "Ji Yuan, your old master will never harm you. If you can survive this arena, quickly leave this ce. This ce is not for the impure souls. I don''t want to lose you to this ce."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Except for a lot of vices, I really don''t see how dangerous this ce is."

    The short white hair old man had suddenly pped Ji Yuan''s ears, "Listen to your old man and leave this ce!"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Alright. Alright. But this grand daddy is a great saint now-"

    "Even great saints will die in this ce." The short white hair old man had interrupted him suddenly with a heavy look. "Sometimes if your soul has died, it is worse than dying."

    Ji Yuan lowered his voice to say with a meaningful nce, "I didn''te here to y. I am here to bust this evil ce."

    The short white hair old man took a curious look at Ji Yuan as he whispered back, "Really? You found some clues already on how to do so?"

    Ji Yuan looked at his old master as he shook his head, "Not yet. And so¡­"

    "And so you have decided to have a little fun first, am I right?" The short white hair old man interrupted Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden they saw four dark figures in front of them and they were fighting.

    Ji Yuan shouted to Ye Jing, Jian Ba and his old master, "Wait here! I will take a look at that corner first!"

    With a quick sprint, he had shed to where the four dark figures were and he was quite startled that the fighting was really fierce!

    He had actually wanted to stop the fighting and to persuade the fighting cultivators to join his group because he would need all the extra points that he could gather.

    But he had turned ashen immediately when he saw that there was a leathery humanoid with an ugly wings that were suppressing the Smiling Divine Maiden and that Lin Antian was also fighting against the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.<sub> </sub>

    And it looked like Lin Antian and the draconian humanoid were actually allies.

    And the Smiling Divine Maiden was shouting with her petite voice, "Gu Sangu! What are you doing? And why are you attacking us?!"

    The Lovely Empress had just crushed into the walls and Lin Antian had raised his saint-step white spear against her and said, "Bare hands? You want to fight bare hands against my saint-step divine spear and against my formidable sword spirit? Lu Jiangsu, I want your body today!"

    Gu Sangu had actually told Lin Antian that this Lovely Empress was the real one and she was still a chaste maiden. And he had promised to give him the Lovely Empress while he would take the chaste body of the Smiling Divine Maiden to advance his own cultivation and to satisfy his own beastly urges.

    Just before Lin Antian''s saintly divine spear could rain down to pierce through to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu''s profound aura, Ji Yuan had suddenly shed his saintly divine sword in front of Lin Antian as he said coldly, "Your opponent is me!"

    Both Lin Antian and the Lovely Empress were startled, "Ji Yuan!"

    The Lovely Empress had never expected to see Ji Yuaning to her aid especially when she was trying to kill him.

    Lin Antian had suddenly shed his saintly divine spear at Ji Yuan, unleashing dozens of fearsome strikes onto Ji Yuan, each one was capable of imploding with great profound power.

    Ji Yuan swung his divine sword as a shield to deflect the attacks while helping the Lovely Empress to stand but his eyes were actually looking between her short skirt¡­

    All five of them were disying their profound animus to the peaked sacred saint level.

    Lin Antian was too fierce and he was disying all his profound power against Ji Yuan and he had quicky sent Ji Yuan to lose much of his profound strength to defend himself against him.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he quickly disyed his trump card as he summoned his spirit entity, the Demonic Cherubim spirit animus.

    Immediately his profound strength was raised to the eighth immortal positioning and he was also contesting against Lin Antian with yet another saintly divine sword.

    Now Ji Yuan had two saint-step divine sword and he was disying two sword spirits to even the fight.

    When Gu Sangu saw the spirit animus that was on Ji Yuan, he merelyughed and he had shed to intercept the fight that was between Ji Yuan and Lin Antian.

    Ji Yuan was startled for that leathery humanoid Gu Sangu was so far away earlier but in the next instant he had appeared next to him...

    When Gu Sangu had shed next to Ji Yuan, he had immediately punched through the two saintly divine swords that belonged to Ji Yuan and had sent him to crash against the wall with a tremendous impact!

    Ji Yuan coughed out golden blood immediately because he did not expect that this Gu Sangu would have so much profound power in him and it was even greater than all the profound power that Ji Yuan could muster.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped panicky to Ji Yuan even as she evaded several blows from Gu Sangu while trying to intercept him, "Ji Yuan, do not take his blows directly. He is a powerhouse cultivator in this form!"

    Gu Sangu ignored the Smiling Divine Maiden as he shed to Ji Yuan in the next blink of an eye, "This is the Demonic Cherubim spirit animus. Interesting but useless."

    All of a sudden he had punched into Ji Yuan again, into his chest and this punch took out half of Ji Yuan''s profound strength and immediately caused the Demonic Cherubim to disappear.

    Ji Yuan could not believe that there was such a powerful cultivator in this ce and he could not even evade his attacks.

    But Ji Yuan was not someone who could stand there to receive a beating so at the same time he had also pierced his divine sword into Gu Sangu''s body but it did not go very deep because Gu Sangu''s profound defense was really too strong and Ji Yuan had already also lost his eighth realm profound strength.

    The Lovely Empress had coughed out golden blood as well as she fended herself from Lin Antian and she had also received a blow from Gu Sangu when she tried to speed forward to aid Ji Yuan.

    She had suddenly disyed her spirit animus and it was a holy seraphim with six wings, consuming half of her inner spiritual seas. Immediately she had knocked Lin Antian aside and had raised her palms to rain upon Gu Sangu.

    This gave Ji Yuan a chance to recover from the earlier attack as he attacked the front of Gu Sangu while the Smiling Divine Maiden was also punching with all her profound power to the back of Gu Sangu.

    But in the next instant Gu Sangu had picked the Lovely Empress and Ji Yuan as he threw them down the stairs below with a thunderous impact!

    As the Lovely Empress stumbled down the stairs, she had also lost the profound might of her spirit animus.

    And for Ji Yuan his injuries were not light either. He had wanted to use his miracle sword art against Gu Sangu but it had taken him too long to charge his profound energies. In his haste to help the Lovely Empress, he got careless too as he was looking at her and was not giving his full attention to his fight with Lin Antian.

    The result was that he got thrashed by two super cultivators and had even wasted his spirit animus. This was an important lesson that Ji Yuan would not forget for a long time.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan saw Lin Antian flying down the stairs to chase after them.

    Ji Yuan had wanted to fight Lin Antian but when he saw that the Lovely Empress hadpletely lost her profound strength and was lying powerless on the ground, he began to sigh softly.

    In the next instant, he had picked her up on his shoulder to flee down the passage way. It was a strange feeling because he was actually feeling her soft sensual body for the very first time.

    He was thinking; she is in this state because she hase to my aid. I can''t leave her in this ce, especially when that Gu Sangu is still above us¡­

    Lin Antian began to shout furiously as he chased Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, put her down immediately and fight me!"

    Meanwhile above the stair and on the upper floor of the maze, the Smiling Divine Maiden could sense that Ji Yuan had taken her sister the Lovely Empress away so she began to flee in the other direction.

    Gu Sangu original target was the Smiling Divine Maiden so he did not really care if Ji Yuan was able to flee. After all, in his eyes, Ji Yuan was already a defeated opponent. After a short hesitation, he began to chase after the Smiling Divine Maiden instead.

    As the Smiling Divine Maiden was fleeing down the passage, she saw a short old man standing in the middle of the passage and was startled to see another opponent of hers had also gathered today.

    With a soft sigh, she began to stop to tidy her dressing but it was not to seduce this old man. Even if she were to die, she had to die with full dignity.

    Instead she had humbly lowered her head to say before kneeling down onto the ground, "Senior old sword saint, I know that I''m not your match-"

    "Go before I''ve changed my mind!" The short old man had suddenly interrupted her as he pointed the passage behind him.

    This maiden had aided Ji Yuan earlier. For that, he was willing to close an eye for now.

    The Divine Smiling Maiden was startled but she quicklyposed herself to offer her gratitude before she disappeared in the darkness of the passage.

    Gu Sangu who was chasing after the Smiling Divine Maiden had also seen this short old man. But when he saw him, he was terrified.

    Before he knew what was going on, the short old man had crashed his head against the celestium wall with his five fingers that were charged with powerful sword energies.

 Chapter 525 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (8)

    Outside the trial of the arena, at the spector stand.

    Yun Chi had a dark brooding look when she had suddenly spotted Vice Steward Gu Sangu inside the arena trial.

    With a quick scan of her divine sense, she had also found out the location of Steward Gu Bugu who was hiding among one of the 30 000 spectors.

    She had already guessed that Steward Gu Bugu was here to warn his brother Gu Sangu if the Death God Mingwang were to make his sudden appearance in the VIP spector stand.

    If the Death God Mingwang did not make his appearance, then they would consider his proteges to be the living meat for their Dragon Faction.

    It was because the arena was a free for all bestial ce for the cultivators and there were no reasons for her prot??g??s to be inside.

    Indeed Yun Chi had no idea why her prot??g??s were inside the arena for.

    If she had known that Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were also nning to kill Ji Yuan in the Auction House, the Gambling Dens and the Extreme Bliss Colosseum as well, she would have fainted at their audacious ns that spanned several areas in Bliss City.

    Right now she had a spinning headache.

    Then she saw that Gu Sangu had suddenly grouped with Lin Antian and that they were grouping together to attack the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden, she was anxious.

    She thought: Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue is strong enough to hold them off but Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu is still too young...

    As she was outside the arena trial as a spector, there was no way for her tomunicate with anyone inside and there was no way to save her prot??g??s now.

    Then she saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly rushing toward to punch and kick a short old man. When she saw this short old man, she was twitching: It is him?!

    To her horror Ji Yuan was now beating up this short old man and he was courting his own death. And this short old man was also beating up Ji Yuan.

    To her reliefter, the two of them were suddenlyughing together.

    Yun Chi had a dark look in her eyes; all that she was witnessing today was not good for her child expectancy.

    She could only pray for her prot??g??s for now.

    Almost an hour had passed, this was the time that her prot??g??s had fought with Gu Sangu and Lin Antian until Ji Yuan had suddenly arrived at the scene. By now Gu Sangu had already transformed into his true form as the Smiling Divine Maiden was tougher to beat than he had thought.

    When Ji Yuan had arrived at the scene, Yun Chi only had a short sense of relief; it was because she still did not know what the short old man would do.

    Then she saw Ji Yuan fleeing with the Lovely Empress and Lin Antian was giving chase to them.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had fled to the wrong direction and had dumped into the short old man. All of a sudden, she was kneeling down but was waved away by the short old man.

    As this was a imagery, she could not see their conversation.

    The short old man was actually alone because he had already dismissed the two cultivators that were with him.

    All Yun Chi saw was that the Smiling Divine Maiden making her getaway.

    As for Gu Sangu, he too had dumped into the short old man and his fate was quickly ended.

    Steward Gu Bugu who was watching from the spector stand was shocked that his brother Gu Sangu could die so in such a quick manner. Although he was shocked but he was even shocker to see the short old man in this ce...<sub> </sub>

    All around Yun Chi, people were discussing the many imageries that they were seeing in the arena trial.

    "That cultivator that can transform into a humanoid monster with wings, he looks badass..."

    "This must be a new bodily transformation profound art..."

    "Although he is formidable but that short old man seems even more formidable..."

    "Many of the cultivators inside the trial are actually ughtering each other or are copting with each other..."

    Yun Chi was looking at Bai Qianfeng and she too, was looking back at her.

    Bai Qianfeng divine whispered to Yun Chi: I don''t know who that short old man is but he looks extremely formidable. He seems to be a friend of Ji Yuan?

    Yun Chi slowly answered: I know who that old man is but I find it impossible that Ji Yuan will know him. They are from two different celestial fraternities and it is impossible for them to meet...

    It was only then that Yun Chi had noticed that Dream Mist was watching the imageries and she did not seem to be affected by what she was seeing. In fact, she could not detect a single emotion in Dream Mist''s misty eyes. It was as though she was just casually watching a show while not caring for anything that was happening.

    Yun Chi was now burning with hatred for the Dragon Faction and for this ce.

    Dream Mist had suddenly turn to her to say enticing, "Hmph. Maiden Yun Chi. Why are you standing up now? Why don''t you sit down and be chill?"

    Yun Chi answered nonchntly, "That is because I like to stand."

    Dream Mist smiled with great gentleness, "You sound like you are the owner of this ce but has suddenly lost control. So why don''t you chill down first?"

    Yun Chi: ...

    Then Dream Mist was smiling with great allure, "What are you worrying about? With your current profound strength, you are still more than a match for him. But if you fight him, you will surely lose your child and this isn''t something that you want to see, am I right?"

    Yun Chi: ...

    "Just who are you? How did you know so much about me?"

    Dream Mist merely smiled, "If you don''t want to fight him then you can only rely on Maiden Bai Qianfeng to fight your battle for you. Although she is an immortal cultivator of the ninth immortal positioning but her current cultivation strength is only peaked at the seventh cultivation realm. This is still not enough to beat that old man. And she only has a celestial-step divine sword while her opponent has a saint-step divine sword."

    Bai Qianfeng was gasping, "I have never shared with you about who I am. How did you know about it?"

    Dream Mist said enticingly and her alluring voice seemed to be alive. "So if you don''t want to fight him then why don''t you try to hide from him?"

    Yun Chi: ...

    "Or you are actually anxious for your three other prot??g??s?" Asked Dream Mist gently.

    Yun Chi had broken into cold sweat as she slowly said, "You even know about my other three prot??g??s?"

    The other five maidens like Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and Yang Min and Yu Jingjing were not able to listen into their conversation because they were deep in meditation now and could not hear them.

 Chapter 526 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (9)

    Ji Yuan had grabbed the weaken Lovely Empress and carried her on his right shoulder as he fled from the fight scene and chasing tightly behind him was Lin Antian and he was astonished that Ji Yuan could really run even though he was carrying someone.

    While running, Ji Yuan could feel the sensuous boobs of the Lovely Empress that were heaving up and down down on the back of the right side of his shoulder.

    The Lovely Empress said coldly to Ji Yuan, "Isn''t it enough already? You are actually taking advantage of me."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately even as he took a right turn to another passage way before speeding down into a step of stairs, "We are being chased by that Lin Antian. This is not the time for any etiquette."

    An annoyed Lovely Empress continued to say with great exasperation, "Can you at least get your hands away from my legs?"

    Ji Yuan''s hands were in the middle of her stark-naked jaded legs and he was rubbing against her undies as he ran...

    "Erm... I really don''t know how my hands got into your short skirt. You shouldn''t be wearing such a short skirt. At least you should wear a robe over your skirt, am I right?"

    The Lovely Empress kicked him and said unpleasantly as she removed his right hand, "This is my business and none of your business."

    But soon Ji Yuan''s right hand was upon her butt.

    The Lovely Empress was exasperated, "Get your dirty hand off from me..."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I need my hands to support you, you know? Or else I won''t be able to run fast."

    "Put your hands on my waist!" The Lovely Empressmanded him as she pulled his right hand to support her slender waist instead.

    Ji Yuan was protesting weakly, "I am running at full speed and I am looking where I am running. I really didn''t notice where I am putting my hands..."

    A flustered Lovely Empress was not paying attention to Ji Yuan''s exnation. It was because Ji Yuan had touched her in her forbidden area by ident and he had also been touching all over her. No man had ever touched her before and Ji Yuan was the first.

    After running for 30 minutes, Ji Yuan was now breathless and it seemed that he had temporary lost track of Lin Antian.

    After he had made a turning in the passage way, he started to stop at a dark corner with another opening; he had dropped her to the ground and he was also leaning breathlessly on the wall; he had used a great deal of his profound strength to speed ahead of Lin Antian.

    He said breathlessly, "We should be safe for a while."

    The Lovely Empress saw that Ji Yuan had purposely put her in a ce where there were more than two passages and she said quietly, "I didn''t think that you can really n your escape routes but you really can."

    "Haha..." Ji Yuan knew what she was talking about as he gulped for breath and he was now trying to stabilize his vital profound energies. "Better be safe than sorryter."

    When the Lovely Empress saw how exhausted he had been, she quietly said to him. "Thank you."

    Ji Yuan took an exhausted look at her before saying breathlessly, "You know. You should lose some weight..."

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly kicked him as she said angrily, "I have decided to take back my words now!"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "What happen to your usual loveliness?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled impolitely, "My loveliness is not for you."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    All of a sudden, the Lovely Empress saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly looking gravely and he was standing up again.

    "What is wrong?"

    Ji Yuan turned to say solemnly, "Wait here. Or you can leave as soon as you have recovered some of your profound strength. I am going back now."

    The Lovely Empress was startled, "You are going back so soon?"

    Ji Yuan nodded with a heavy sigh, "My old master may be in grave danger and I got to go back to help him. Or else next time of the year, today will be his new death anniversary date. That Gu Sangu is really formidable. My old master is definitely not his match. I need to go to his aid immediately."

    The Lovely Empress was startled, "You have an old master?"

    But she had suddenly caught hold of Ji Yuan by his wrist before mming him down against the wall with a thunderous crash, "Look at you. Do you still have the profound strength to fight that Lin Antian? So what if you were to go back? It may be already toote by now. And what if you have dumped into Lin Antian again? You should know that he is looking for us. I didn''t see your old master earlier. Maybe he had already sensed the fighting and had escaped. I am sure that he isn''t that foolish to have stayed behind."

    Ji Yuan was stunned by the sudden attack of the Lovely Empress and he was weakly struggling to stand now, "You are right. That old man is indeed very good at running. He didn''t even bother toe to my aid."

    The Lovely Empress asked bewildered, "Did I just hear you calling your old master that old man?"

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "I usually call him old man and he usually calls me rascal. And in front of him, I am his grand daddy now. Haha..."

    The Lovely Empress: ...

    The Lovely Empress: ...<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress: ...

    "You have a terrible disrespect for your prot??g?? master. Without him, there won''t be a you."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the Lovely Empress and saw that she had a woeful expression, "Why are you like this all of a sudden? You have no idea how much torture that old man had once put me through."

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "Hmph! Are you able to give me an example?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly as he began to ponder...

    "Does whipping till to the death for 3 month count?"

    "Or breaking all my bones and I need a year to recover from my injuries..."

    "How about hanging me on a rope on top of a cliff to shoot little peas with my sword fingers..."

    "Took me for tomb raiding and pushed me in front to check for traps..."

    "How about this then..."

    "And this..."

    "This?..."

    The Lovely Empress rolled her eyes before she stopped Ji Yuan, "This is enough already. I have never seen such a horrible master in my life before."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Now you know how horrible he is? And if you know how I have be his prot??g??, I am sure that you will vomit blood as well. I call my sect the Broken Sword Sect in secret, haha..."

    The Lovely Empress muttered, "I am actually not interested in your old master or old man."

    She was suddenly looking at Ji Yuan, "Interesting. I didn''t know that you have an angelic spirit animus as well."

    But she was suddenly saying, "The two of us have consumed our spirit animus now. Do we still have the profound strength to fight Lin Antian?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Sure we can."

    The Lovely Empress hummed softly, "No we can''t. That Lin Antian has too many cheats that he can use as his trump cards. Moreover we have been weakened by Gu Sangu now. Even if we can defeat Lin Antian, can we defeat Gu Sangu?"

    Then she looked really woeful, "Maybe by now my sister the Smiling Divine Maiden has already fallen into his hands and her fate cannot be described."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Don''t worry. We will find a way to save your sister too."

    The Lovely Empress turned to him with her lovely soft eyes, "You... did you copte with Ye Jing?"

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to bang his head when Ye Jing was mentioned; it was because he was suddenly back to +0 Points now, having lost his group.

    He said weakly, "Of course not."

    The Lovely Empress asked him, "Then why are you so weak during the earlier battle?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "You have never seen my fights. How do you know that I am weak?"

    The Lovely Empress said quietly as she continued to hold him into her lovely gaze, "Something tells me that you are not giving your best earlier."

    Ji Yuan did not dare to tell her that he had actually been distracted by her and the Smiling Divine Maiden during the earlier battle. So he did not really put his entire focus during the fight with Lin Antian. So when Gu Sangu had suddenly appeared to attack him, he was actually caught off-guarded.

    "You didn''t?" The Lovely Empress asked again. "This is my instinct."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course not."

    The Lovely Empress lowered her nces to say, "It is alright if you do not want to admit it. But I want to tell you that I''ve actually nted a toxic poison within Ye Jing. If you copte with her then you will unknowingly be poisoned by her."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What?! You have poisoned my Senior Sister Ye?!"

    The Lovely Empress slowly said, "It is harmless to the female cultivators but extremely poisonous to the male cultivators. It will cause the male cultivators to lose their profound strength over time. Even if they are golden celestials, they will still need time to purge it and it will be expensive without any antidotes."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "Luckily, I did not copte with Senior Sister Ye. Haha..."

    But he was thinking: Oh crap. I''ve almost...

    The Lovely Empress had turned her head away as she said softly, "She isn''t your Senior Sister Ye. She is merely a doll avatar of mine. And I''ve purposely put her next to you to screw you up. Now that you have learnt of the truth, you must have already known that I am actually not a good person. I am not even an unorthodox cultivator but a heretic cultivator."

 Chapter 527 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (10)

    The Lovely Empress had said, "She isn''t your Senior Sister Ye. She is merely a doll avatar of mine. And I''ve purposely put her next to you to screw you up. Now that you have learnt of the truth, you must have already known that I am actually not a good person. I am not even an unorthodox cultivator but a heretic cultivator."

    She continued to say slowly with great woefulness, "In additional, I am also one of the ring leaders of Bliss City. Now that you know of my true identity, are you surprised?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin as he looked at her nonchntly, "I am actually not surprised."

    The Lovely Empress began to look at him with a sudden perplexed look, "You are not?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Now it makes even more sense to me."

    The Lovely Empress chuckled, "Then why don''t you tell me your thoughts?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he answered, "That is because you don''t wish to betray your evil master yourself and also because over time you have grown attached to your sisters, am I right? That is why you have used Ye Jing to inform the others to be wary of Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and you. In this way, this is not counted as betrayal to your own evil master. This is something that I''ve been trying to figure out since the beginning."

    The Lovely Empress was jolted before she took a deep look at Ji Yuan.

    This Ji Yuan indeed has a powerful perception...

    She began to say quietly, "However there is still something that you have got it wrong."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Which part did I get it wrong?"

    The Lovely Empress nonchntly said, "That is, I am absolutely loyal to my master. Although he is evil but he has taught me my immortal arts and has protected me from the Dragon Faction. You can say that without him, I will not have achieved so far in my cultivation."

    "Who is your evil master?" Asked Ji Yuan.

    The Lovely Empress snorted coldly, "This, I won''t tell you because even if you have ten lives, you won''t be able to live to tell anyone."

    Ji Yuan rolled withughter, "Actually I do have ten lives. Even if you don''t tell me, I know that he is one of the three True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm. That is why he is all powerful."

    The Lovely Empress pretended to look disconcert as she looked at Ji Yuan, "You know?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly¡­

    The reason that Ji Yuan had known about it was because Yun Chi had mentioned to him that the Wondend of Ecstasy Ind was created by the three True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm.

    The Lovely Empress returned a mockingughter, "I am actually unsurprised because I know that you have indeede to kill my master. If you have pretended not to know then I am really surprised. However before you have the chance to kill my master, I will kill you with my hands first."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Then why didn''t you kill me just now when you have the chance?"

    The Lovely Empress said, "Maybe you are only putting on an act or maybe you still have a hidden trump card that I do not know. But since you have saved my life, I should at least give you a fair warning before we fight¡­"

    ? "If you really want to fight with me then you won''t stop me from looking for my old master or to stop me from fighting with Lin Antian in my current state." Ji Yuan interrupted her coldly before he chuckled warmly, "Even in my weaken state, you know that I am still stronger than you and¡­"

    He stopped for a while before he said hesitatingly, "You think that I will forcibly copte with you so that I can regain my profound strength to fight with Lin Antian, am I right?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled coldly, "Isn''t all men the same? They are always thinking of their lower bodies. Moreover you are a beautiful man with many peerless maidens in your harem."<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan answered nonchntly, "I don''t need to copte with you to defeat Lin Antian. I have my own ways to defeat him. As for the True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm, this is my personal feud with them. You are already helpful to my cause. Thank you."

    Then he had turned around to walk away.

    The Lovely Empress called out from behind him, "Ji Yuan, where are you going?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "I am naturally going to witness what Lin Antian''s trump cards are. And I am going to¡­ try to find my old man. If he dies in this ce then I am really an unfilial prot¨¦g¨¦."

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly shouted softly before she looked away, "My¡­ master¡­ is the Death God Mingwang and he is your mortal enemy. Now that you know the truth and that I am the prot¨¦g¨¦ of your mortal, why don''t you fight me instead? I am keeping my chastity for my master the Death God Mingwang and I hope to be his consort one day."

    She did not know why she was suddenly telling him all these. Maybe she had hoped to retain him or to make him envious?

    "What?!" Ji Yuan had turned around.

    The Lovely Empress was thinking quietly: He has really turned around to kill me now¡­

    Ji Yuan could not believe what he was hearing and he was actually cursing Yun Chi: You are my woman and not a man. How can she be your consort? If she knows that you are a woman, she would surely faint¡­

    All of a sudden the Lovely Empress saw that Ji Yuan had turned around again and she was startled, "You are not going to kill me?"

    But Ji Yuan had ignored herpletely and he was already speeding away.

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress had hastily picked herself up as she ran after Ji Yuan.

    It was not long before she had caught up with him, "Hey Ji Yuan, where do you think you are going?"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw her again, "You shouldn''t be here. I can only protect myself but not you at the same time."

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "I have already regained some of my profound strength and I have some profound pills with me. Do you need my profound pills."

    Ji Yuan returned a weak smile, "Do you think that I am unable to afford profound pills of my own?"

    This caused the Lovely Empress to giggle even more because she had already known that Ji Yuan only had some low level profound pills and it was useless in this arena trial.

    As the Lovely Empress was still following him, Ji Yuan once again turned around to look with great displeasure at her. "Why are you following me?"

    The Lovely Maiden began to look at Ji Yuan with gentle loveliness before she yfully smiled, "Since you don''t want to kill me then I can assume that I still have a little ce in your heart so I have decided to follow you to wait for an opportunity to stab you in the back."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 528 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (11)

    As Ji Yuan walked with the Lovely Empress, he asked her curiously. "You don''t seem to be too worried for the Smiling Divine Maiden? That Gu Sangu is truly terrifying."

    The Lovely Empress said unhappily, "You seem to be anxious for her well-being?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "We have left her to fight Gu Sangu alone. Shouldn''t you show a little concern for your sister?"

    The Lovely Empress rolled her delightful golden eyes before answering nonchntly, "Sister Chu Lixue is stronger than you think she is. She is the first direct prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Death God Mingwang while Sister Zhi Jiugong is the second. I am the third and also the youngest. Before you have joined the fight, we had already been fighting for the past 1 hour. As my Sister Chu Lixue is protecting me, she is unable to disy her profound arts to her fullest potential. But one to one even though she isn''t as strong as Gu Sangu, her speed and reflexes are better than him. Even if she cannot defeat him, he won''t be able to defeat her too especially when that Lin Antian isn''t around now."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "I see now."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly patted the Lovely Empress on her right shoulder, as he whispered. "Be quiet."

    Before the Lovely Empress could ask him why, she had heard Lin Antian.

    Lin Antian was shouting loudly, "Ji Yuan! Lovely Empress! Where are you? I know that you are around here! I''ve heard the voice of the Lovely Empress just now!"

    The Lovely Empress muttered softly, "He sure has sharp ears¡­"

    "He sure has..." Just as Ji Yuan was alsomenting the same, the Lovely Empress had suddenly popped in a fifth rank profound pill for profound strength recovery into Ji Yuan''s mouth.

    "What did you feed me?" Ji Yuan growled as he looked at her.

    The Lovely Empress giggled as she pped her right fingers on his face, "Swallow it! It is just a free of charge fifth rank profound pill for your profound strength. Hmph! I won''t charge you for this."

    Ji Yuan frowned but he did not hesitate to swallow the pill, "Well, thank you¡­"

    "But actually this may be poisonous. So you may consider purging it out before it is toote." Interrupted the Lovely Empress as she winked at him.

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he ignored her tease. "I don''t believe."

    Then he gestured with his fingers as he said quietly, "Wait here. I will fight with Lin Antian first."

    The Lovely Empress disyed a hurtful look, "You want me to stay here while you fight him alone?!"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Isn''t this what you are supposed to do? I am giving you an opportunity to stab me in the back."

    The Lovely Empress hummed softly, "Then you have better watched out for your back. I can really be a most vicious maiden when your guard is down."

    Ji Yuan nodded and he had already shed away while he was shouting out loud, "Lin Antian! Your grand daddy is here!"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had quickly found Lin Antian along another passage way.

    He was quite shocked to see that Lin Antian had dragged a naked Ye Jing along with him.

    "This¡­"

    There was a strong killing malevolent air from Lin Antian as he raised his white saint-step divine spear against Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan shouted immediately, "What have you done to my Senior Sister Ye?"

    Lin Antian smirked coldly, "Naturally I had used her to regain my profound strength and also to score an additional +3 Points. There were two other ugly cultivators that were with her and they had used her as shield before running off. How unfortunate or else I would have scored another +6 Points. Now I am using her for my pure pleasure."

    Ji Yuan had secretly resolved to kill these two ugly cultivators, Jian Ba and Jian Renter on.

    Lin Antian had suddenly disyed his Divine Tree spirit animus over his profound aura, "This wretch had tried to poison me with her body but she did not know that my Divine Tree is a profound spirit animus that can remove any toxins. Therefore this little trick will never work on me."

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "I am sure that your Divine Tree has other trump cards as well but you won''t be telling me until I''m dead."

    Lin Antian merely smiled; what Ji Yuan had said was the truth. His Divine Tree also had the ability to absorb profound energies to grow even stronger as well. This Divine Tree of his was the nemesis to the sword energies practitioners.

    "Did you copte with the Lovely Empress?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to lie so he answered nonchntly, "No."<sub> </sub>

    Lin Antianughed, "What a missed opportunity. That means that you are now incapable of using your spirit animus. Without your spirit animus, you won''t have the profound power to hurt me. Don''t worry. After this fight is over, I will copte the Lovely Empress for you and I will absorb her primeval yin into my cultivation core. When that timees, even if you have your spirit animus, you won''t be able to harm me anymore."

    Ji Yuan looked at Lin Antian cautiously, "You don''t seem to be a living furnace of the Old Witch Xi. Or else your vitality won''t be this strong. Is it because you are a practitioner of something even more evil like the Evil Veins Profound Art?"

    Lin Antian was truly startled, "I am really surprised that you are actually aware of my Evil Veins Profound Art."

    Ji Yuan had actually heard it from Little Princess once. There was even one time that he had suspected that she was also a practitioner of the Evil Veins Profound Art.

    Lin Antianughed mockingly, "I have fully unlocked 180 out of 360 of my evil veins. Once I have copted with enough powerful saintesses and can fully unlock all 360 of my evil veins then I am invincible under the heavens."

    The Lovely Empress who was hiding in a corner by concealing her profound animus was shocked that this Lin Antian was even more evil than she was¡­

    Ji Yuan said aloud as he disyed his saint-step divine sword and his sword spirit, "Enough of these small talks. This is a life and death duel between just the two of us."

    Lin Antian nodded coldly, "You are a hindrance to my ambitions. Don''t worry, I shall help you to take care of your harem for you¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had shed with all his profound power against Lin Antian and the air between them had exploded with their profound powers.

    Ji Yuan shouted angrily, "Never! You shall not green me¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had summoned another sword spirit in his left hand and he was using both sword spirits to a single saint-step divine sword.

    Lin Antian had raised his white saintly divine sword to block his attack but he was suddenly forced to use both his hands now because he had never seen Ji Yuan using two sword spirits at the same time.

    He shouted, "Ji Yuan, I shall show you my true profound arts¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly thrown away his saintly divine sword behind him and he was suddenly shing another saintly divine sword, "Sorry Xiang Li but you are a little useless. I have to use Anyang this time."

    Xiang Li protested immediately: Wuwuwu, my Big Brother has just thrown me away¡­

    Anyang chuckled: That is because my divine sword has the power of the five elements while you have got nothing.

    Lin Antian had suddenly mustered a dark profound aura that was expanding toward Ji Yuan and it was like a ck hole that could swallow him up.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly unleashed a white beam of streaking light that sliced through this ck hole and had exploded through the formidable aura of Lin Antian.

    Lin Antian shouted with great rage, "It is impossible that you have the time to execute your miracle sword art¡­"

    But he was not worried because his Divine Tree was empowered with the five elements and could also absorb Ji Yuan''s profound might.

    But all of a sudden the Divine Tree was withering because Fairy Anyang Xiahou was now saying sternly to the Divine Tree, "You shall not prevail against your former mistress! I have the profound power of the five elements too!" She then shouted loudly, "Fire burn Wood!"

    There was a brilliant sh of light as Lin Antian was thrown with such force against the celestium walls that the entire section of the walls had copsed alongside with him.

    Before he could muster his profound strength again and to solidify his profound aura, Ji Yuan had suddenly thrown his saintly divine sword in a form of streaking light as it pierced through his body; he had once again used his most powerful miracle sword art again but this time it was not as a melee weapon but as a missile weapon.

    Ji Yuan had not wasted a single blink of an eye as he performed this attack on Lin Antian.

    This broke Lin Antian''s profound defense immediately as he coughed out blood. But before he could react in the next blink of an eye, Ji Yuan had thrown another saintly divine sword in another form of brilliant miracle light and had pierced Lin Antian''s throat!

    To say that the second saint-step divine sword had pierced Lin Antian''s throat was an understatement. It had pierced with so much profound power that Lin Antian''s throat was actually severed from his body.

    When Lin Antian had died in that very instant, he still could not believe that Ji Yuan had killed him so quickly with so little profound strength and with such ease. Even his speed was impossible fast.

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "No one shall green me and live to see another day. The right side of my sword spirit is power while the left side of my sword spirit is speed¡­"

    With the left side of his sword spirit, he was able to reduce his profound charging time by two blinks of an eye. Also while it appeared that he was using both of his hands, he had actually switched to his left hand as his main sword arm which was even faster than his right hand.

    That was why Lin Antian could not believe that Ji Yuan could react with a miracle sword art in such a short time and he could muster the profound power to fight against him. Moreover in such a small time frame, Ji Yuan had used three of his most powerful miracle profound sword art against him.

    While Ji Yuan was previously fighting against Lin Antian, he was also secretly observing movements of the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Gu Sangu as they may be his potential opponents.

    When the Lovely Empress saw the scene, she was shocked that Lin Antian was literally massacred by Ji Yuan in just a few blinks of an eye.

    Ji Yuan coolly said, "My old man always taught me to keep my trump cards hidden from the masses. Only when I am alone with them then I am allowed to use my trump cards. Today you are the first to see my trump card. It is because you have also told me your personal secret so this is a fair exchange."

    The Lovely Empress was looking weakly at Ji Yuan and she was a little dumbfounded: Does he knows that everyone who are at the spector stand can also see him?

 Chapter 529 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (12)

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly said to Ji Yuan, "Wait here for me."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The Lovely Empress did not reply to Ji Yuan''s perplexed look but she had walked to the naked Ye Jing and all of a sudden there was a profound light.

    Ji Yuan was startled for the Lovely Empress had dissipated the fake Ye Jing with her profound force.

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu heaved a soft sigh, "This avatar is my wrongdoing... rest in peace..."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he disyed a weird look at the ''death'' of the goddess in his heart. This bust his bubble of banging the Great Heroine Ye now...

    Even Xiang Li was muttering weakly: Our bubbles are bust now...

    Anyang frowned: She isn''t even real in the first ce.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly on high alert as he quickly turned around, "There is someone else who is in this passage!"

    A beautiful shadow could be seen emerging from the darkness of the passage and she was the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The Lovely Empress gasped when she saw her sister, "Sister Lixue, you are also here..."

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden had appeared, she was like an enchanting light that lit the ce with her charming presence.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled alluringly, "Little Sister Jiangsu, I have finally found you atst and it seems that our ns can still be carried out after all. This Ji Yuan does not have much profound strength now after using three miracle sword arts. This is our chance to kill him now."

    She had naturally used the Spirit Divination Compass to track down the Lovely Empress.

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly now because what she had said was true. Moreover, she had also concealed herself so well that that he was not able to sense her. That would mean that she had already seen his trump cards.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled with great loveliness, "Ji Yuan, even if you can really run, you won''t be able to run away from me."

    Ji Yuan asked her instead, "You have managed to run away from Gu Sangu? How?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden slowly nodded but there was a hint of unpleasantness in her golden eyes, "I am afraid that there is a big possibility that he may be dead by now."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Who can kill that monster?"

    The Lovely Empress was also startled, "Vice Steward Gu Sangu will be defeated?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded lightly, "It is because we had met a more terrifying monster in this maze."

    The lovely Empress was blinking her shocked eyes, "Who can be stronger than Gu Sangu and my Sister Lixue here?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden slowly said, "That old freak is back."

    The Lovely Empress took two steps back and she was truly shocked, "Really?"

    "Let''s discuss thister. But first, we have to kill Ji Yuan." The Smiling Divine Maiden had walked forward and she was monitoring Ji Yuan keenly.<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly stepped in front of Ji Yuan, "This is most unfair to Ji Yuan if we were to take him out when he was at his most vulnerable. Also, he dide to our aid earlier, am I right? Or else we won''t be talking now."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled to see the Lovely Empress suddenly defending Ji Yuan, "You have only been with him for a while and you are already defending him?! Have you forgotten that he is our mortal enemy? The purpose of using down inside the arena trial is simply to kill him or else why should we expend so much effort in doing so?"

    She was not only saying to the Lovely Empress but she was also saying it to Ji Yuan. She had wanted to shock Ji Yuan with this revtion but from his nonchnt look, it seemed that he had already known about it.

    The Lovely Empress answered softly, "Sister Lixue, I..."

    She was trembling all of a sudden and was lowering her head before she lifted her delighting golden eyes to say firmly. "Yes. I have wanted to kill Ji Yuan before this but now I don''t want him to die. I am willing to go back to exin to master."

    Then she quickly turned to say to Ji Yuan with pleading eyes, "As long as Ji Yuan can promise us that he won''t oppose or lift his fingers against our master the Death God Mingwang, can we let him go?"

    "What? You even let him know the name of our master?!" The Smiling Divine Maiden was shocked and her smiles had ceased.

    Ji Yuan thought that it was impossible not to lift his fingers on Yun Chi and that it was also very hard to agree with Yun Chi all the time so there may still be a little opposing. So he quickly said, "I am willing to make an oath with my soul sea that I won''t be an enemy of the Death God Mingwang. Do you think that this is even better?"

    The Lovely Empress was startled as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Really?!"

    She had not expected Ji Yuan to say that and that he was willing to drop his feud with the Death God Mingwang. Was it because he had been touched by her?

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Really."

    The Lovely Empress was now saying to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Sister Lixue, what do you say?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a hesitant look, "He is lying. Our master has treated him like a mortal enemy. If our master wants to kill him then is he going to stand there and let our master kills him? Can he still make such an oath in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a stupefied look that was disyed more on himself than with the others, "If I can make such an oath and I won''t retaliate against him then you will let me live?"

    He had no wish to fight against Yun Chi''s prot??g??s. Even though he may not have his full profound strength back but deep inside him, he was itching for a fight but because of Yun Chi, he had decided to suppress his fighting will.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden sighed softly, "After I had met that old freak today, I seem to have lost some of my usual killing intentions. Very well, if you can make the oath then I shall spare you today."

    The Lovely Empress was delighted as she grabbed Ji Yuan, "Quick! Make the oath!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "In the sacred name of the Great Beyond Goddess, I, Ji Yuan swears by your name that I will not be an enemy of the Death God Mingwang. Even if he wants to kill me, I shall allow him to y me...uh... erm... is this alright?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had a pleased look as she smiled beguilingly, "Remember what you have said or your soul sea will suffer a bacsh. My master is a vengeful master and there is no promise that he will spare your life. But for now, you are safe in ourpany."

    Ji Yuan could only weakly nod as he thought: Well, Yun Chi will never kill me right?

    Xiang Li giggled: Unless you make her angry enough.

    Anyang was nodding: Did our lord makes her angry?

    Ji Yuanughed and said to Anyang: Well, never! Haha...

    He did not know that right now Yun Chi felt like strangling him for not listening to her.

 Chapter 530 Bliss City Arena Second Trial (13)

    Outside the arena trial, the turmoil that was within Zhi Jiugong could really be imagined as she watched the multiple imageries that were being disyed in the arena. It was so intense that she had even forgotten to y her divine zither.

    First, she had seen both her sisters the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress in a fight with Vice Steward Gu Sangu and Lin Antian.

    Then she saw Lin Antian chasing after the Lovely Empress and Ji Yuan.

    Afterward Vice Steward Gu Sangu was chasing after the Smiling Divine Maiden and both had run into a terrifying old freak.

    She was so engrossed in watching the fights between the Smiling Divine Maiden and Gu Sangu that she had no idea when the mortal enemy that she called the old freak had appeared.

    Many of the cultivators also had no idea as well as there were simply too many imageries that were being disyed in the arena and they could only track one imagery at a time. If it was too boring then they would switch to another imagery.

    Someone as appealing as the Smiling Divine Maiden naturally attracted scores of divine senses on her imagery. Moreover she was also with the Lovely Empress and the two of them were the main highlights of the arena.

    No one except for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng cared too much for Ji Yuan to view his imagery. And for those that did, they were actually tracking Ye Jing and not Ji Yuan.

    Naturally acts of coptions between the cultivators also attracted plenty of attention.

    Zhi Jiugong was very much relieved that the old freak had spared the Smiling Divine Maiden after she had humbly kneeled in front of him.

    As for Vice Steward Gu Sangu, he was killed when he had tried to chase after the Smiling Divine Maiden for he had bumped into the old freak.

    She saw that Steward Gu Bugu was so shocked that he had actually stood up and he was trembling. There was even no time for Steward Gu Bugu to even warn his brother.

    No one even knows when the old freak had appeared in the middle of the passage because no one wanted to watch an imagery of an old cultivator.

    Zhi Jiugong''s thin cherry lips were trembling after that incident and she had continued to force herself to track her sisters.

    Then she saw that the Lovely Empress and Ji Yuan appeared to beughing casually together and she was startled: Sister Lu Jiangsu, is this just your ploy or are you reallyughing with your enemy? Don''t forget that he is the mortal enemy of our master...

    Afterward she saw that Ji Yuan had left to confront Lin Antian and the Lovely Empress was following him.

    Soon Ji Yuan had found Lin Antian and they were fighting again.

    She was expecting to see Ji Yuan being suppressed by Lin Antian because she had seen how powerful Lin Antian was and that Ji Yuan performance during the group fight earlier was dismaying, to say the least.

    This time she was proven to be so wrong.

    It was because Ji Yuan reflexes and speed were more than doubled and his strokes were so insanely fast that even her super reflexes golden eyes could barely follow him.

    Then she saw Lin Antian profound defenses breaking in front of her eyes and Ji Yuan had used three miracle sword arts with an impossible charging speed.

    She could barely believe it because if that was the case, then Ji Yuan would be able to defeat the ninth rank epic deste raptor alone during the first trial.

    Naturally she did not know that Ji Yuan had always concealed his speed attack because he did not want his opponents to know how fast he was able to charge up his profound energies into profound power for the use of his sword art. And moreover, charging up so fast in such a short notice actually required plenty of Ji Yuan''s profound strength in his inner spiritual sea. So it was not an action that Ji Yuan had wanted to reveal so readily.

    But the main reason which was known by Ji Yuan, Xiang Li, Anyang and Dream Mist were that Ji Yuan was particrly angry when someone was trying to green him and he would then find the extra reserve profound strength to attack his foes.<sub> </sub>

    Ji Yuan''s performance during his fight naturally attracted the attention of Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng who also did not think that he had a chance too. And they were surprised that Ji Yuan had actually fought differently from previously and he had killed Lin Antian almost effortlessly.

    Bai Qianfeng said to Yun Chi, "Did that Lovely Empress fed him a powerful profound pill or something? Profound pills that can upgrade power may be potent but it always has an adverse after effect."

    However Yun Chi did not reply to her for she was still glooming over the appearance of the old freak so she merely nodded.

    She was thinking: What is Ji Yuan rtionship with that old freak? Their swordy and sword arts arepletely different and yet they are chatting so casually. Did they know each other from an earlier level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? The onlymon trait that they shared, is that they always seem to have plenty of trump cards hidden...

    As for Dream Mist, she had continued to watch the imageries with a nonchnt look.

    Bai Qianfeng was suddenly shouting to Yun Chi, "Senior Sister Yun Chi, look! That Lovely Empress has suddenly killed Ye Jing and she is merely an avatar. And also the Smiling Divine Maiden has suddenly appeared..."

    Zhi Jiugong who were following both the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden was not too surprised. This was the moment to strike down Ji Yuan when he was at his most vulnerable. Finally the Spirit Divination Compass would be proven to be right and Ji Yuan would finally be killed by her two sisters.

    But to her startled surprise, the Lovely Empress seemed to be arguing with the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress seemed to be protecting Ji Yuan.

    And then after a short argument, the three of them had actually formed a group together?!

    Zhi Jiugong continued to monitor them for several more hours.

    She saw that Ji Yuan seemed to know where he was going and he was going fast. And when he had spotted the Twin ck Sparrows, Jian Ba and Jian Ren, he had quickly put them with his sword.

    For killing them, Ji Yuan had a permanent +9 Points now, since he had also killed Lin Antian.

    As for the Lovely Empress, killing Ye Jing had also counted as +3 Points. So she already had her permanent +6 Points for killing a total of two cultivators.

    As for the Smiling Lovely Maiden, she only had a permanent +3 Points and a temporary +2 Points for being in a group with Ji Yuan and the Lovely Empress.

    For the next 12 hours, she did not make any slight movement but instead she had found a ce for meditation. Ji Yuan and the Lovely Empress had also joined her.

    When the time was almost up, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress walked away in their group while Ji Yuan was alone.

    Hence, without killing anyone the Smiling Divine Maiden now had +6 Points now and she could pass the trial. As for the Lovely Maiden, she had +9 Points now which was more than enough.

    For Ji Yuan, he already had a permanent +6 Points and he could pass the trial alone.

    When the time was up, Zhi Jiugong began to announce the results of the trial. "The second part of the trial has now ended. Out of the 650 contestants, 48 did not get the +6 Points. These 48 contestants will be punished with a 2 million high grade spirit stone debt. There are also another 244 contestants that have failed because they have all perished inside the second arena trial. Therefore we have 358 Cultivators that will receive an additional of 3 million high grade spirt stones."

    Zhi Jiugong paused for a while before she said musically, "In the third and final trial, the surviving arena contestants will all receive 5 million high grade spirit stones while the top contestant will receive an additional 5 million high grade spirit stones and a celestial-step divine robe. As for the losers, they will be penalized with a fine of 3 million high grade spirit stones..."

    Almost all the contestants and spectors were startled and they were all either thinking or talking about the celestial-step divine robe; it was because celestial-step items were extremely rare and moreover this divine robe was a protective profound treasure. And the value of this celestial-step divine robe could easily exceed 100 million high grade spirit stones!

    -----------------------

    Author Note: There is a mistake in Chapter 517. 650 Cultivators have passed the trial and 200 Cultivators did not, instead of 600 and 250. This figure has since been corrected.

 Chapter 531 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (1)

    Zhi Jiugong''s heavenly voice was announcing to the arena contestants, "The third and final trial willst for 40 hours. If you had already copted with a cultivator, remember that you will have to copte with a new cultivator for the renewal of your profound strength. In this trial however, you have to obtain 9 Points instead of the usual 6 Points. Killing one cultivator will get you 3 Points each while copting with a new cultivator will also get you 3 Points. This time round, there will be no group points. As it is before, profound pills will still be limited in its uses."

    She paused briefly before saying, "However, you will be allowed to give or trade to the other cultivator up to a limit of 1 Points. If you do so, 1 Points will be deducted from you. You can''t trade your Points if you have less than 0."

    Ji Yuan saw that he had been taken to a dark spatial space while he was listening to Zhi Jiugong. He began to wonder what the third and final trial will be?

    "This one actually requires 40 hours? The Points require is now 9? No group points now? And a new rule for trading or giving away 1 Points?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was taken to a new ce and he found himself looking at hundreds or even thousands of green swords that towered over 400m and thunderous lightning could be heard in the dark heavens above.

    He quickly looked around him and saw that he was alone.

    Where are the rest of the 358 cultivators?

    Ji Yuan began to calcte in his mind; If every cultivator required 9 Points to clear this trial, then in the best situation, only 95 cultivators would eventually be able to survive. They could of course choose to copte with the others for more points but if they were killed halfway then all the points would be wasted. Therefore only roughly 40 cultivators would eventually survive this trial¡­

    Zhi Jiugong continued to say, "This trial is divided into two parts. The lesser and the greater area. As you can see now, you are in the lesser area. In this lesser area, there will be 12 ck portals at any given time. The first pair to enter the ck portal will be grouped together for the greater areater. The same will goes for all the subsequent pairs. You can however choose to go alone for the greater area. This grouping is to ensure fairness and at the same time, ally or foe is for you to decide¡­"

    The first pair would naturally be the Smiling Divine Empress and the Lovely Empress. It was because this trial was also rigged in their favor and they had already known where the ck portals would spawn and therefore, they could make a beeline for it.

    "Please note that as long as you are in the lesser area, there will be divine lightning that will strike randomly where you will be spawning. Every 12 portals that is triggered, the divine lightning will strike with greater frequency and with more profound power. So be warned to enter the ck portal as soon as possible."

    Zhi Jiugong secretly thought of the fate that would await Ji Yuan. Without a doubt, he would be spawning in an area with the most divine lightning and he would also be furthest away from the ck portals.

    She pronounced slowly, "Once you are in the greater area, your goal is to reach the middle where the safe area is. This safe area is marked by a yellow portal so you won''t miss it. If you fail to reach this safe area before the 40 hours are up then your trial will also be considered as a failure even if you managed to have 9 Points."

    Zhi Jiugong sighed softly before she said in a heavenly voice to the contestants, "I wish all of you good luck with this trial¡­"

    Was she actually wishing Ji Yuan good luck as part of his unfulfilled wish?

    She was heaving a soft sign of mncholy now. Somehow she was d that Ji Yuan did not get himself killed in the second arena trial. But the third and final arena trial would be the most difficult for him even without the involvement of the Divine Smiling Maiden and the Lovely Empress.

    -

    -

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was sighing softly as she looked at her surroundings; she was surrounded by gigantic green swords that were sticking halfway from the ground and there were white terrifying lightning that was shing from the dark heavens onto the ground.

    Getting hit by one of the white terrifying lightning was definitely not a joke and it would burn up the cultivator''s profound animus and even killed them.

    These gigantic green swords were about 400m tall and were so towering that it virtually blocked out the other cultivators to give the impression that she was just a lone cultivator.<sub> </sub>

    However this was just a deep deception and she knew that there were a total of 358 surviving cultivators.

    She was not sighing because of the difficulty of this trial but because of what the Lovely Empress had said to her when they had left together in a group, just before the end of the second arena trial.

    The Lovely Empress had said mncholically to her, "I don''t have the heart to tell Ji Yuan of the difficulty in the next trial. Even if that old freak is here, he may not even survive the third trial. And we are cheating?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had kept a quiet countenance before saying quietly, "Sister Lu Jiangsu, you seem to have forgotten that we are here to kill him in the first ce. Have you really forgotten? And yet you are worrying for our enemy? So what if he has made an oath not to be an enemy of our master? You are too young and too simple. These golden celestials are more treacherous than you think they are. If they can''t be an open enemy, they can still be a covert enemy. Once Ji Yuan is dead, your heart will eventually be settled. Look at you, you have even wasted a precious fifth rank profound pill on him¡­"

    "Ji Yuan didn''t waste it. He killed Lin Antian with it." Although the Lovely Empress'' golden eyes looked mncholy but she had interrupted firmly as she looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled for this was the very first time that the Lovely Empress had interrupted her with such rudeness.

    The lovely Empress continued with a bleary look, "He has no profound pills now and he didn''t choose the coption path. Will he be able to survive the third arena trial?"

    "I say," The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coldly, "That he probably didn''t have the chance to do so. If he is alone with your avatar Maiden Ye Jing long enough, I don''t believe that he won''t take the bait. Or he will eventually choose to copte with a maiden in the third trial because he did not want to die. Or maybe he is just trying to fish you¡­"

    "Enough sister. You have too much darkness in your heart." The Lovely Empress had stormed off.

    Before the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had met Ji Yuan, she had a poor opinion of the male cultivators and had only held her master in high regards. It was because her master was not only a beautiful master but he had never given any hint of touching her.

    Instead her master had left her for 500 years to be trained by the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong. But when she had met Ji Yuan, something in her was awakened and it was her suppressed emotions. She had actually found Ji Yuan to be irritating but she could not resist the urge to quarrel with him and she liked to see his beautiful face turned ugly in front of her.

    By now, she had already known that she had loved Ji Yuan more than her own master. The affections that she had for Ji Yuan was love while the feeling for her own master was just simply respect. Ji Yuan was the man that she could see having a future with.

    Moreover Ji Yuan was able to understand that she had not lost her good heart and through Ye Jing, she was actually giving away hints to warn the cultivators away from Bliss City.

    And she was not stupid to know that Ji Yuan was constantly looking at her with interest as well¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to mutter softly behind the Lovely Empress, "You have really changed and it is not a good change¡­"

    But she quickly interrupted herself as she caught up with her to say, "You had only seen that old freak from the memory scans that we had given you. So if you were to see him, pretend that you do not know him. This is for your own good."

    The Lovely Empress hummed softly, "I will."

    Then she began to soften her tone, "Sister, you must survive this trial. Alright?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled quietly, "I have the Spirit Divination Compass. Naturallypleting this trial isn''t any issue for me."

    With a sentimental look, the Lovely Empress said distressly, "Sister, you are lying to me. What if you see that old freak again? What will you do? He''s the final boss in this trial for you."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had halted her steps before saying with a quiet countenance, "I can only say that I deserve to die in his hands."

 Chapter 532 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (2)

    Zhi Jiugong had pronounced her heavenly profound voice above the heavens, "I wish all of you good luck with this trial¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had briefly pondered for a while to recall her conversation with the Lovely Empress.

    Slowly she curled a wry smile, "I don''t disagree that I have too much darkness in my heart but my loyalty to our master is absolute."

    When she had said that, she had sped among the dozens of gigantic green swords that were half buried in the ground here. The faster a cultivator had sped, the more divine lightning were drawn from the dark heavens above to the cultivator. This was the special mysticw of this ce.

    That was why in order to reach the ck portal to ess the greater area of this trial, the cultivators had to trend carefully or else they would end up wasting plenty of their time.

    Even for that old freak, he would need some time to study the Dao of this trial first before he could continue on his way.

    But she was different; she was a speed cultivator and she expertly evaded all the divine lightning that was being generated against her even as the ground exploded furiously all around her.

    She was in no hurry to kill any of the cultivators in this ce for she knew that the divine lightning were less fierce for the first 12 ck portals or for the first 12 cultivators only.

    Therefore she had quickly located the ck portal and with a quick sh, she had quickly entered into the ck portal.

    As she entered through to this ck portal, the ck portal disappeared from the location and instantly began spawning in another random location.

    As the Smiling Divine Maiden appeared in the new location, she soon found herself overlooking a forbidden pulverized city; for there were broken walls all over the ce that towered 200m and each of the stone masonry that consisted of the walls were 2m in height and 8m long.

    This was a gigantic city!

    Although the dark heavens had no lightning here, this was actually the more dangerous ce for there were many ancient deste monsters that roamed in the deeps of this city.

    She muttered softly to herself, "Wee to the greater area of the third arena trial, the Forbidden City of Death."

    This was the name that was given by the Death Faction to this trial.

    Now all she needed to do now was to wait for the Lovely Empress to appear and then they would join hands toplete this trial together.

    All in all, she had used up almost 1 hour of the time to find the nearest ck portal.

    This would take just a little while of waiting as the Lovely Empress was not as proficient as her in evading the divine lightning and to locate the nearest ck portal.

    A dark form had suddenly materialized behind her and she knew without any doubt that it was the Lovely Empress.

    But she was soon gasping with startled eyes because she had suddenly recognized the form that was materializing and he was Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw her, "It is you? I didn''t think that you are able to locate the ck portal so fast."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shockingly looked at him with bewildering eyes, "I didn''t think that it is you as well. How did you manage to get here so fast?"

    They had marked Ji Yuan and dropped him into the area with the most plentiful divine lightning strikes and also the most difficult terrain in the lesser area.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Is it supposed to be hard? Haha¡­"

    Then he wasughing, "Well, I happen to be a master in evading lightning. This amount of lightning won''t be able to kill me. After all, I am a great saint that had ovee the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion, haha¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was stunned, "You have ovee the nine-stage purple lightning tribtion¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded with pride when he had heard the praise of such a peerless maiden and it was music to his ears, especially when she knew how awesome he actually was.

    "¡­with your puny profound strength?" Continued the Smiling Divine Maiden with a perplexed look.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately when he had heard her. "This is a little too insulting, you know."

    Did she just say he had puny profound strength?

    But then on second thought, he had actually ovee his nine-stage purple lightning tribtion with the aid of the profound treasures of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue while the only profound treasure that he could offer to the group was his five-leaf clover.

    But Ji Yuan was soon looking with great expectation at the beautiful countenance of the Smiling Divine Maiden as he asked, "Well, are we friend or foe?"<sub> </sub>

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled by this question for she still had not regained herposure that the Lovely Empress was noting.

    Inhaling a soft sigh, she turned to Ji Yuan with a light enchanting smile. "Ally. This ce is too dangerous for me to explore alone."

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden had said ally, Ji Yuan was delighted immediately and he was looking at her beautiful butt at the same time. "This is great. Let''s go in together then!"

    Then he paced himself next to her and asked, "I am just curious. How did you get here so fast? I''ve thought that I would be the first."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden naturally would not want to tell him that she had cheated and to reveal her trump card. Therefore she just smiled interestingly to Ji Yuan, "That is because you are not the MC. I am."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Liughed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big Brother, you are never going to conquer her. She is too tough for your nut to crack.

    Anyang was giggling too: His nuts will probably crack first before he can crack open her icy heart.

    Ji Yuan frowned at Xiang Li and Anyang: Did I say anything about cracking her?! Seriously, I need to talk to the two of you about some moral lessons when we are free.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked Ji Yuan, "We need to score +9 Points. So even if we find the yellow portal to the safe area first, it is useless. So we need to fight and kill 6 cultivators. Do you agree with me?"

    Ji Yuan began to scowl a little, "Do we really need to kill so many cultivators? What if there are some good cultivators among the contestants?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden took an enchanting look at Ji Yuan as she asked captivatingly, "Or do you intend to copte with 3 others? If so, don''t you nt any of your obnoxious designs on me."

    Xiang Li answered for Ji Yuan: Absolutely!

    Anyang casually added: And the Lovely Empress as well.

    Xiang Li shook sadly: Unfortunately, Ye Jing isn''t around now...

    Ji Yuan answered three times, "No! No! No!"

    He was actually answering to the Smiling Divine Maiden, Anyang and Xiang Li at the same time.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden ignored his protests. She said captivatingly before speeding off, "Time is short. Let''s go!"

    Ji Yuan found himself following her as he looked with fascination at her slim devil figure before he muttered, "This is too sinful¡­ to think that I am with the number one beauty in Bliss City at this very moment¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    When the Lovely Empress had entered through the ck portal, she was stunned that it was not her sister the Smiling Divine Maiden that was greeting her in the new location.

    Instead it was a short old man with a long white beard.

    Immediately she had broken into a cold sweat as she had recognized as the old freak from the memory stones that she had viewed previously.

    She immediately thought: He won''t know who I am right?

    The short old man did not turn to face her and instead, he had suddenly croaked softly with his old voice. "I know you. You are that Lovely Empress and you are a harlot of this Bliss City."

    The Lovely Empress was trembling now and she did not know why she was unable to muster her profound strength and she was pressured by the deadly sword intentions that hade from this short old man.

    The short old man added coldly, "Therefore you are my enemy and you are my +3 Points."

 Chapter 533 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (3)

    Ji Yuan had barely closed his eyes to meditate when he saw that the Smiling Divine Maiden was standing near the windy tall edge of the city walls and she was looking cautiously into the streets that were below; where a gigantic looming ninth rank immortal ss ancient deste raptor was roaming slowly.

    This ancient deste raptor was so huge that its entire body was heavily armored and it even had ten powerful profound des on its dark back.

    Ji Yuan growled softly when he saw the beautiful butt of the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was unhappy; it was because he had imagined her taking off her robe for the lustful eyes of the other cultivators to feast upon.

    The thought that she would be lifting her skirt to the other cultivators to pass this trial made him feel really green.

    The more that he had looked at her, the more wanton she had be in front of him and the more he was growling madly.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly shed next to Ji Yuan and she had bended herself to rebuke him angrily, "You say you only need 30 minutes to condition yourself and you waste all your time to look at me?!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he looked at the exposed curved bunnies from her top when she had bended over, "What a beautiful view¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had gasped all of a sudden as she quickly covered her bosoms with her two slender hands and she had taken three steps back, "Where do you think that you are looking at?!"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly as he tried to make a protest, "Look. You want me to make a run to that wall opposite this powerful ancient deste raptor, this isn''t too impossible for me but I need to condition myself through meditation first to calm my mind down first. Just give me a little time alright?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said with great exasperation, "You have been taking far too long. Are you meditating or are you actually looking at me?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "You want me to run across that street in 20 blinks of an eye and to climb up to that tall imposing wall that is 50m tall in 6 blinks of an eye¡­"

    He paused to emphasis, "That imposing wall is 50m tall and I have to climb it in 6 blinks of an eye. This is the most difficult part. Without my spirit entity, it is already near to my limit. Erm, do we have to be so precise with your counts?"

    The Divine Smiling Maiden answered nonchntly, "You have to do it or I will drop you here. This isn''t too difficult. Even the Lovely Empress is able to do it. It is 50m and not 100m. This section of the wall is actually the lowest but we have to be alive to reach it. 6 blinks of an eye to climb that wall is already our minimum to stay safe. Or you want to fight with that ancient deste raptor? Besides, you don''t have your spirit animus. Or rather, I doubt that you can summon your spirit animus. These angelic spirit animus cost too much to summon."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "You sound like you know my spirit animus so well and besides, I doubt that you can really run in that long robe of yours that is flurrying your back."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled alluringly before she hummed with a beautiful expression, "The spirit animus that you have is the Demonic Cherubim. It is a ninth rank immortal ss deste monster. I don''t know how you have managed to even defeat it in the first ce. You must have some lucky urrences in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. However, it is still pale whenpared to my saint-ss Holy Seraphim which also happen to be a ninth rank spirit animus¡­"

    Ji Yuan was almost choked with words when he had heard as he interrupted her, "What the heck?! Saint ss ninth rank deste monster?! Then why don''t you use it?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coolly before she lit her countenance to answer with a captivating smile, "That is because it does consume plenty of my inner spiritual sea to summon it. I am not as foolish as you to show off and to lose your spirit entity in the next minute. Although our spirit animus is extremely formidable but the profound aura that it is disying is also its greatest weakness. While it can act as a protective defenseyer but it is always the first to be crush by a formidable cultivator. That is why yours didn''tst."

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly now. Even though he was not giving his full focus to his group fight with Gu Sangu and Lin Antian, he had remembered raising his two saint-step divine sword to defend against Gu Sangu. Not only was he not able to defend against Gu Sangu profound attack, his spirit animus was also crushed.

    That was because his spirit animus was defending for him before his two saint-step divine swords. And when his spirit animus had dissipated, he could no longer wield two saint-step divine swords at the same time and hence, breaking through the profound defense of his two saint-step divine swords was as easy as a piece of cake.

    For a sword cultivator without any other formidable profound auras or internal profound arts to protect himself, he could not tank against Gu Sangu''s profound attack once he had been hit by it.<sub> </sub>

    It was clearly easy to figure this out once he had the mood to think over it but for the Smiling Divine Maiden to tell him so casually, her perception in situational battle must really be formidable for she was fighting with a difficult opponent and yet she was also observing him.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked at a frowning Ji Yuan with her stunning captivating eyes and it was as though her eyes could talk: You mean that you have not figured that out yet?

    But she quickly hummed softly to interrupt Ji Yuan''s train of thoughts as she guessed that he must be reying that earlier battle in his mind, "I guess that I have talked too much..."

    However she could not resist adding, "I did warn you not to take his blows directly when you are trying to show off."

    Ji Yuan bitterly smile, "I think that you warn me a little toote."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could not resist a chuckle, "You should have thrown away one of your saintly divine swords."

    Ji Yuan chuckled too, "I should have thrown away Xiang Li that day."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang began tough silently in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    "Who is Xiang Li?" The Smiling Divine Maiden began to ask curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Xiang Li is the name of one of my saint-step divine swords. The other one is called Anyang."

    "You know." Ji Yuan had suddenly grown solemn. "I have suddenly realized that you can really chat. Are you like this most of the time or are you too lonely?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly frozen on the spot before she lightly rebuked Ji Yuan, "Hmph! I am never someone that likes to talk a lot. I am just giving you some tips on how to handle your spirit animus. That''s all."

    She was not upset when she was rebuking Ji Yuan for it was more like a gentle reprimanding.

    Then she started to take off her robe to reveal her white cicada dress with gold runes inside.

    Any cultivator would immediately tell that her dress was a profound treasure. As for what grade it was, Ji Yuan did not know and this was not his concern at this moment.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at her tempting slender devil figure, "What are you doing? Why are you taking off your clothing in front of me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden took a disgusted look at him with her captivating eyes before she smiled nonchntly, "I am naturally taking off my robe so that I can fulfill the conditions that I''ve given you. What are you thinking about?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I think I need more time for my meditation now¡­"

 Chapter 534 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (4)

    As soon as Ji Yuan had said to the Smiling Divine Maiden that he would need more time for his meditation, he had suddenly chuckled. "I am ready."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled as she disyed an incredible look at him, "Are you sure about it?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he began to do his warming up exercises in front of her and he was grinning, "Haha¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed softly as she turned around, "Then don''t say that I didn''t give you any time for you to do your meditation."

    Ji Yuan''s eyes were shining as he looked at her butt and her jade legs from her short skirt¡­

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself: Now I know where big brother motivation ising from¡­

    Anyang nodded as she eyed the Smiling Divine Maiden with an envy look: She has a body and face that can cause any man to willingly die for her¡­

    Ji Yuan ignored them as he walked to the edge of the broken wall ruins as he looked down on the streets below where the ancient deste raptor was prowling for signs of any cultivators. Slowly he turned to look at the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Are you ready?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden chuckled to herself before she smiled with her captivating eyes at Ji Yuan again, "I am just afraid for you. I am always ready."

    Ji Yuanughed softly; he had finally realized today why this Maiden Chu Lixue was called the Smiling Divine Maiden because her smiles could captivate any men that were looking at her. And she was smiling not for anyone but for herself. There was a triple smile to her smiling countenance. Firstly she would smile to herself before she would smile with her eyes and lively lips to another.

    Even though Ji Yuan was not someone that could easily be captivated by a maiden''s smiles but she was really good to look at. Moreover she also had a devil figure to match with her peerless look.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly shouted alluringly, "Go!"

    And she had jumped down from a terrifying height of 50m.

    When Ji Yuan had recovered from his daze, he was already 2 blinks of an eye toote.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to speed through the streets toward the gigantic ancient deste raptor which immediately reacted with devastating speed to plow its sharp ws and body talons all around it, exploding the entire street with its killing profound powers.

    But the Smiling Divine Maiden simply shed through the multiple waves as though she could sense where the attacks wereing from and she had quickly sped past the gigantic ancient deste raptor. All in all, she had taken 15 blinks of an eye and another 5 blinks of an eye to reach the other side of the towering walls, taking precisely 20 blinks of an eye before she started to speed up the walls on the other side.

    Ji Yuan was startled at her speed and the way she had evaded the rest of the monster''s attacks. "This evasion¡­ where did I seem to have seen this before¡­"

    For Ji Yuan, he was bombarded with dozens of fierce attacks all around him but he was nimble enough to evade the attacks as he sped past the gigantic ancient deste raptor.

    But he was a little slow and took 24 blinks of an eye to run to target walls at the other side of the street.

    It was only then that he had noticed that the gigantic ancient deste monster had turned to attack him with all its profound strength and the entire street had exploded thunderously as the profound aura of the monster was awakened.

    Ji Yuan now knew why the Smiling Divine Maiden had only given him 20 blinks of an eye.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was already halfway up the towering walls when she saw that Ji Yuan was in trouble.

    She was actually half-expecting for him to perish while running across the street as he was killed by the gigantic ancient deste raptor but somehow he had evaded the bulk of the fierce profound attacks and she was startled.

    "This evasion of his¡­ is so simr to mine?"

    Ji Yuan was now regretting that he had been distracted by the Smiling Divine Maiden and also because he did not know how powerful this ancient deste raptor was.

    One must know that even a seventh rank profound deste monster was a match for a great saint and could even kill one due to its strong physique and regenerative abilities.

    And Ji Yuan was facing a ninth rank immortal ss ancient deste raptor of impossible profound strength to beat.

    So he was just trying to evade this gigantic monster that was towering over him instead of wasting his precious profound strength to fight it. It was because the disparity in power between the two of them were simply too great.

    Usually when a ninth rank deste monster had spawned from the depths of the deste mist, all the golden celestials from the surrounding regions would put down their differences and join their hands to fight it. Usually there would be thousands of non-golden celestials that would be used as cannon fodders because the life of even one golden celestial was simply too precious to be wasted.

    Ji Yuan had quickly sped up to the towering walls but the gigantic ancient deste raptor had already seen where he was going and had smashed against the towering walls, causing Ji Yuan to lose his bnce!

    Suddenly, the Smiling Divine Maiden had shed behind the gigantic head of the raptor and had attacked it.

    This startled Ji Yuan who had fallen onto the ground again.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shouted panicky at Ji Yuan, "Don''t just stand there. Muster the vital profound energies of your breath and go up again. I¡­ will be fine¡­"

    Ji Yuan was ufortable that he had been saved by a maiden but he listened to her nevertheless because he did not want to distract her.<sub> </sub>

    In 8 blinks of an eye, he had climbed up to the top of the towering wall, short of the 6 blinks of an eye target that she had set for him.

    Ji Yuan could only fall with his knees on the top of the tform because he had expended so much of his temporary profound strength to maintain his speed and he needed to urgently regained his vital breath by stabilizing his erratic profound energies in his inner spiritual sea.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shed behind and forward of the gigantic ancient deste raptor and she had only slightly injured it on her first strike and the rest of her attacks were merely distraction.

    Like Ji Yuan, she was also reluctant to waste her profound strength to fight against this monster. Instead, she was more interested to conserve her profound strength for evading it and running away.

    Indeed, after she saw that Ji Yuan was safe on top of the tall stone tform, she had quickly sped up to join Ji Yuan and had copsed breathlessly near to him.

    As the ancient deste raptor was now smashing against the walls that they were at and its profound attacks could still affect the top of the tform, Ji Yuan had quickly grabbed the Smiling Divine Maiden as they escaped in another direction together.

    Ji Yuan saw that the Smiling Divine Maiden was sweating profusely and looked a little powerless just like Ji Yuan was earlier.

    It was as though they had both made the trip back from hell.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was carrying her in both arms and he was looking at her sweating sensuous body. He could only mutter silently that this was too sinful for him to behold¡­

    After a while the Smiling Divine Maiden quickly waved for him to stop as she said slowly in his strong arms, "I am alright now."

    With that she had got off from Ji Yuan''s strong arms, afterward she had immediately disyed her profound force to dry herself uppletely from her fragrant sweats.

    She muttered, "Thank you¡­"

    Ji Yuan felt a little bad as he quickly said awkwardly, "I should be the one that should say thank you instead."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden turned her head away, "It''s alright. We are a¡­ team."

    This was the first time that she had acknowledged that they were a team.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Just now when you go to the back of that monster''s head, did I see a short sword in your sleeve?"

    All of a sudden, the Smiling Divine Maiden had shot him with a dreadful look and she was no longer smiling, "You know too much!"

    Ji Yuan began tough awkwardly, "Don''t be so upset. I won''t tell anyone¡­ Haha¡­"

    He had always seen her fighting unarmed and he had assumed that it was due to the mastery of her powerful profound arts. But today he had actually seen her with an immortal-step short sword that was hidden under her sleeves.

    The sword energies that had suddenly burst out discreetly earlier was unmistakable to Ji Yuan. It was because he could feel the sword profound energies in her fingers earlier but she had chosen to conceal it as her trump card.

    He turned to ask her with a suspicious look, "You didn''t happen to be reclusive sword saintess, right?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden chuckled with amusement, "Do I look like one? So what if I am one and so what if I am not?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is because I happen to be a sword saint."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled jovially all of a sudden, "You don''t look like one. Your swordy is just so and so."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Darn my old man. I knew that I have always joined the wrong sword sect¡­

    But he was suddenly solemn as he inhaled deeply, "I am really afraid for the Lovely Empress now. This ce is too dangerous for her."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden stopped her softughter immediately and there was a look of guilt in her captivating golden eyes. If their n works as nned, her sister the Lovely Empress would be with her right now.

    She turned to stare angrily at Ji Yuan, for with this man, none of her ns seemed to have worked.

    Ji Yuan saw her angry looks, "What is wrong?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden coldly hummed at him, "So you like my sister? But you have only just remembered her."

    Ji Yuan looked weakly at her, "I am always concerned for her¡­"

 Chapter 535 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (5)

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the jagged horizons of the gigantic ruined city and he was clenching his fists tightly, "I hope that she is alive and will live to survive this trial."

    Although the time spent with the Lovely Empress was short, they had both helped each other in their hours of need.

    He could still remember how the Lovely Empress had used her spirit animus to sweep Lin Antian away to save him and that she had also furiously attacked Gu Sangu, simply to buy him time.

    If he still could not see it how earnest she was in trying to go to his aid while sacrificing a huge part of the reserve of her inner spiritual sea to summon her spirit animus then he must really be blinded to her devotion.

    In that moment, the Lovely Empress already had a ce in his heart even though Ji Yuan did not want to tell her that as he sort of enjoy bickering with her. And that was the reason why he ahd swallowed her profound pill without even doubting about her ''poisonous'' intentions.

    Ji Yuan said quietly but it was firm, "We need to find her in this trial."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden merely hummed as she turned around and Ji Yuan could not see the expressions that were on her.

    But deep down, Ji Yuan knew that they were actually very close to each other and were even closer than real sisters.

    He was now thinking that the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was a very mysterious maiden. She seemed to have many secrets that she was not willing to share and she seemed to be wearing a mask to disguise her true facade.

    But he knew that behind her haughty icy mask, she was actually not a cold person. It was because she had risked herself to buy him time to escape up the walls. This one was real and that she had also helped him to analyze the mistakes in his fighting style with Gu Sangu as well.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden seemed to know what was on Ji Yuan''s mind and said to him with shrugged shoulders, "Don''t be mistaken. Just now I had a suddenpassion to help you. However I have soon regretted my actions as reckless. I should remain as still as water."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Lucky for me."

    Then he softened his voice to ask quietly, "Actually why are we taking the most dangerous route? We can just avoid that monster and to take our chances with the less powerful deste monsters, right? It seems that we are too far ahead and there are no other cultivators around here."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled casually before asking him with a wry smile, "What is the objective of this trial and how many cultivators do you think will be able to survive this trial?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "All of us have to score +9 Points and I am estimating that around 40 cultivators will be able to survive this trial."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled softly before she smiled mysteriously, "Less than 10 cultivators will be able to survive to survive this trial."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Seriously?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked up to the windy dark heavens with a knowing smile, "They will be contesting over the celestial-step robe and will be ughtering each other for the highest points."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he sighed softly, "So this is actually your ns? You offer such a godly reward for this trial because you want to recycle all of them and take their profound treasures?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded slowly, "And should you fall as well then we would have gotten two saint-step divine swords. Isn''t this more rewarding than anything else?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Then why did you save me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maidenughed aloofly for a while before she smiled, "That is why I had regretted saving you."

    But secretly, she was saying to herself: I don''t want my sister the Lovely Empress to be hurt when Ji Yuan is dying or dead¡­<sub> </sub>

    She said slowly, "The route that we have taken is the shortest route. The rest of the route are just longer or deathtraps and they will only dy us from reaching the yellow portals."

    As Ji Yuan looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden, he began to ponder for a while before he said, "This is but one answer to one of the two questions, right? We still need to get +9 Points. Without getting the +9 Points, we can''tplete this trial."

    He was actually thinking of shing his two saintly divine swords and to force his weaker opponents to surrender, hence they would be forced to donate 1 Points to him. All he needed to do was to find 9 cultivators that got at least 1 Points and he couldplete the trial when he had entered through the yellow portal.

    In this way, he couldplete the trial without killing anyone and still got his 5 million high grade spirit stones. Altogether, he could get 10 million high grade spirit stones forpleting all three finals.

    When he had thought of his n, Ji Yuan thought this was such an awesome n. He had never felt so rich before. Although he had once traded 40 million high grade spirit stones for Yu Jingjing''s heaven-step divine zither, it was mostly in ughter points and he had to spend it or it would be wasted.

    How much was 10 million high grade spirit stones in standard spirit stones again?

    Ji Yuan made a quick calction and it was 1000 million standard spirit stones.

    He was now feeling filthy rich enough to buy all the surrounding celestial ns around the Emperor Hall Sect!

    Even if he had kept half of the high grade spirit stones to use for realm breakthroughs and replenishing for his sect, he was still a filthy rich cultivator.

    But when he had thought that he still owed 990 million high grade spirt stones to the Mo n, he felt extremely poor again.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly looking at him with a weird expression and she was wryly smiling, "Huh? When did I say we are going toplete the trial? Although the trial rules state that we have to get +9 Points toplete this trial when we enter the yellow portal, it never says we can''t fail the trial if we got 0 Points when we enter the yellow portal."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What do you mean that you want to fail the trial on purpose? You mean you are aiming for 0 Points?!"

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue lovingly looked at Ji Yuan''s golden eyes as she hummed with a wry smile, "My aim is just to reach the safe area and to let everyone kills each other. This trial is just my trap to kill everyone in the lesser and greater areas."

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted when he had heard her.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to walk away, "Be thankful that you are still alive..."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had thought of something and had interrupted her, "You can track down the Lovely Empress, am I right? Or else how did you manage to find us? I run like hell in the previous trial so it is quite impossible for you to find me and Lin Antian."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly gasping as she put her fingers to her face, "You... you''re right..."

    Immediately she had turned to another direction now.

    Ji Yuan asked her, "You are heading back now to the exterior walls now?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden paused for a while before she said mcholy, "Unless I find her, the darkness in my heart will never go away. Why are you so surprised? We are not here to win anyway."

    Ji Yuan was grinning now, "I don''t care about this trial either."

    -----------------------

    Author Note: Here goes another plot twist. The fun part about ''The Romantic Cultivator'' is the multiple twists, don''t you think so as well? This arc is a major arc and it isn''t so simple to end at the Extreme Bliss Colosseum and that is why the hardest trial is shown first instead of the usual sequence.

 Chapter 536 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (6)

    As Zhi Jiugong watched the imageries inside the arena, she was feeling more and more uneasy. It was because the Spirit Divination Compass which was an emperor-steppass would actually fail so many times; the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were supposed to be grouped together for the final trial and by now, they would be speeding toward the safe area without any incident.

    However the Smiling Divine Maiden had ended up with Ji Yuan in a group while the Lovely Empress had suddenly met up with the old freak.

    The meeting between the Lovely Empress and the old freak had greatly startled her because there was no way that the Lovely Empress was a match for the old freak.

    She silently shouted to her: Lu Jiangsu! Run!

    It was because this was an open space and not a narrow passageway so there might be a chance that the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu might have a chance to outrun the old freak. It was unlike earlier when the Smiling Divine Maiden was trapped between two powerful opponents in a narrow passage where her movements were limited, one in her back and one in front.

    Then she saw that the old freak seemed to have a heavy killing intention on the Lovey Empress¡­

    The Lovely Empress was naturally afraid of the old freak when she had first seen his cold voice. But her proud defiance soon kicked in as she was one that did not like to yield in to any threats.

    Her thought first was naturally to resist as she thought: This great saintess isn''t afraid of you. Not when I am also a peaked great saintess!

    Especially when he had dared to say to her that he knew that she was the Lovely Empress and that she was also a harlot of this Bliss City. To add salt to injury, he had even told her that she was his enemy and that she was only worth +3 Points.

    So how could she not be mad at him?

    But when she had suddenly remembered that even the Deste Dragon God Longdi could not ovee this old freak in the past and even her master the Death God Mingwang had viewed him as his mortal enemy, she was wary of him immediately as she thought: Just how strong a peaked great saint sword saint is? Don''t tell me he had a level 10 in all his small realms?

    The cultivation realms of the celestials are actually extremelyplex and what was generally known is actually a simplified version. While it isn''t wrong to say that there are 7 cultivation realms in all, with thest cultivation realm being called the Sacred Saint Realm and the cultivators there are called golden saints. It is actually divided into two power disparities, the normal golden saints and the great saints.

    Every realm actually has 4 stages; initial, middle, upper and peak stage. Therefore the same will naturally goes for the Sacred Saint Realm and only the third stage onward can be called a great saint. And in order to be a great saint, one has to ovee the lightning tribtion first. It is never easy and some cultivators are known to be injured for decades as they hastily breakthrough to the prestigous great saint level.

    Each stage also has 4 steps; half-step, earth-step, heaven-step and peak step and each step also has 10 levels.

    For thest step, it was in turn divided into the 4 again, the energy (or Qi Refinement) cultivation, the soul cultivation, the spirit cultivation and the mental cultivation. It was here that the steps were given a rating of 1-10 levels, where most of the cultivators will only score an average of 3.

    Most of the cultivators usually ignored thest 2 parts because it was not crucial to get to the maximum in order to ovee their breakthroughs and they would only start to panic when they had reached a deadlock in their breakthroughs or ascension.

    As for Lovely Empress, she was the peak of the peak great saintess. Therefore she had her own personal reasons to be vain of her cultivation strength.

    As for Ji Yuan, she had a bad impression of his cultivation level because while Ji Yuan had disyed and pronounced his profound animus to be that of a peaked great saint but he could be the lowest level of the peaked great saint; she was not surprised if he only had a half-step cultivation attainment as a peaked great saint.

    Most cultivators like Ji Yuan would never dare to tell the others how low their attainments were as they were too hasty in their breakthroughs and refused to solidate their cultivation inner spiritual seas first, relying more on luck and poor resources for their breakthroughs.

    When she had thought about Ji Yuan''s soul cultivation for his cultivation realms, she could not resist a silent chuckle when she thought that he probably scored only level 1 for all his seven major cultivation realms on the average because she had thought that his soul must really be impure.

    Usually for major powerhouses or celestial ns, they have much more cultivation resources to solidate their cultivation realms and they are much stronger than the poorer same cultivation realm cultivators, having a level 3-5 on average.

    Anything above level 5 is extremely hard and it requires lucky urrences or a very long time. That is why many of the smarter cultivators prefer to go slower to solidate their cultivation realms instead of rushing for breakthroughs that would bring them the benefits of a stronger cultivation profound strength.

    She was thinking that Ji Yuan profound strength was simply too weak because he had such a low level in his cultivation realms and he was only relying on his two saint-step divine swords to ovee his opponents.

    She thought again, maybe not just his two saint-step divine swords. He was also lucky enough to have two sword spirits and a powerful spirit animus.

    The Lovely Empress began to sigh that some cultivators like Ji Yuan was simply too weak and that they had simply relied on their lucky urrences in the trials to ovee their opponents. However this was useless to her because at the end of the day, real cultivation attainment means that they all had to face the cultivation breakthroughs and to ascend as immortals.

    And she, the Lovely Empress has all the strong qualifications to ascend as an immortal cultivator eventually.

    That is, if she doesn''t die now.

    And she was now facing this old freak now.

    She could only forcibly smile to this short old man as she lied, "Senior cultivator. I think you are greatly mistaken about this. I am not the Lovely Empress and I don''t have such an evil sister like her. While she may be a harlot in Bliss City, I am a chaste maiden. If you don''t believe me, you may examine me with your powerful divine sense. I can give you the time to examine me."

    Did she just shamelessly lie like that Ji Yuan now? It must be his bad influence on her that is causing her to lie like this manner!

    The short old man looked a little surprise, "You are really not the Lovely Maiden?"

    The Lovely Maiden raised her fists with much indignant, "She is absolutely evil while I am good and has apassionate heart. And she is the one that forces me to join in this trial to get her more cultivation resources. She is after all still my sister and I have no choice but to obey her wicked wishes."

    She quickly resolved to go on her soul meditationter and to sincerely repent of her lies and never to lie again or else her soul level will drop to Ji Yuan''s shameless level.

    It is all that stupid and shameless Ji Yuan''s fault, for sure!

    I bet that his soul level is only 0.1 but he had shamelessly round it off to the nearest 1 to make himself look awesome in front of all the other cultivators that have also scored a 1 in their soul level.

    He has probably made one too many oaths to his soul core, that''s why.

    The reason why the Lovely Maiden had mentioned thest part was that all the promises and oaths regardless if it make to the soul core, are a form of restriction when a cultivation is having his breakthrough and can hinder them.

    The short old man frowned, "If you are not the Lovely Empress, then who are you?"

    The Lovely Empress immediately answer innocently, "Uh¡­ I am the Innocent Empress. I am the opposite of that wicked witch. I am good."

    The short old man rolled his old eyes and he appeared to be startled before he roared with loudughter, "I see. So you are the Innocent Empress."<sub> </sub>

    The Lovely Empress answered immediately as she crossed her fingers to her butt, "Of course I am the Innocent Empress. Who else can I be? And what is your name then?"

    The short old man pondered for a while before he answered, "You can call me your grand daddy?"

    "Grand daddy?" The Lovely Empress giggled uncontrobly. "If you are my grand daddy, then I am your daughter?"

    The short old man frowned, "You don''t believe me?"

    The Lovely Empress pondered shyly, "I think that you are not a bad old man. Why don''t I call you sugar daddy instead since you are so sweet to me and especially if you want me to be your god-daughter?"

    The short old man said nonchntly, "Whatever."

    The Lovely Empress asked him shyly, "So we are allies now? My sugar daddy?"

    The short old man merely said to her, "Follow me if you don''t want to die, my Innocent Empress."

    The Lovely Empress quickly said, "Well, if you don''t need me, I think I can go explore the other way now. So, farewell¡­"

    The short old man turned around to stare at her, "If you dare to go ten steps away from me, I shall forcible copte with you and then I shall kill you for a total of +6 Points. Do you believe me?"

    The Lovely Empress was startled but she quickly put on a delightful smile, "s, sugar daddy really knows how to joke with me. Of course I shall follow you. I feel so safe with my sugar daddy around¡­ hehehe¡­"

    While she was saying that, she had of course put her fingers to her butt again.

    That was how the Lovely Empress had followed the old freak.

    And this was what Zhi Jiugong had seen with her own eyes and she was perplexed; she could only see the imagery of the Lovely Empress but not any sounds.

    All of a sudden she was startled; it was because Steward Gu Bugu had suddenly stormed to the judge stand and he had brought along the four most powerful cultivators from the Dragon Faction and they were the East King, South King, West King and North King.

    When Steward Gu Bugu was near to Zhi Jiugong, he had immediatelymanded, "It is time to activate the emergency rule. I shall enter into the final trial myself, along with my four subordinates."

    Then he took a dark orb, "That old freak is here now. I shall use this Dragon Subduing Orb to kill him inside."

    He was naturally seeking vendetta for his brother.

    Zhi Jiugong was stunned, "You.. really want to do so? And release the Dark Sol Dragon?"

    Steward Gu Bugu stared coldly at her, "Quick and do as I have said!"

    He was of course extremely angry that his brother Gu Sangu had been killed. And even more angry that these three sisters had been using dolls to satisfy his bestial urges. This time round, he was going to forcibly copte with the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden for real inside.

    Zhi Jiugong had no force but obey him for this was his right as the chief steward. In theory, Steward Gu Bugu was the highest inmand in Bliss City and he was only trying to kill the old freak.

    She sighed softly before pronouncing her heavenly voice into the arena for all to hear her, "We are all going to increase the risk of the final trial so we are sending 5 cultivators inside to be the hunters as special rewards. But as an additional risk for reward, if any cultivator is able to kill one of the hunters, you will receive +9 Points and also an additional 10 million high grade spirit stones as your reward."

    Many of the cultivators in and out of the arena were startled but it soon gave away to loud cheers.

    "The reward for ying a hunter is +9 Points?"

    "Then it will mean that they will be able toplete this trial?"

    "And 10 million more high grade spirit stones too! Wow!"

    "I wish I am one of the contestants now¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong announced slowly, "This is how the five hunters will look like and they will spawn randomly in the greater area of the trial. Once again, I wish good luck to the contestants. The hunters will spawn inside the trial in a minute time."

    Yun Chi who was also looking at Zhi Jiugong and Steward Gu Bugu had an even more dark look now; it was because Steward Gu Bugu was nning to unleash the Dark Sol Dragon on all the contestants without letting them know how they would die.

    The Dark Sol Dragon was a dark deste monster that was controlled by the Dragon Faction via the Dragon Subduing Orb. Even for her status as the Death God Mingwang, she was not unable to stop them from using it. And moreover, they had all the justifications to do it because that old freak had now appeared.

    The situation inside the arena trial was now getting more and more out of control¡­

    And she could only pray for good luck to Ji Yuan?!

    She had lost all of her humorous smiles by now¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was equally frustrated. It was not because it was due to how powerful Steward Gu Bugu was but that Ji Yuan was actually chasing skirts inside.

    She knew very well that when Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin, he was actually looking at the butts of his interested maidens. When they had turned their heads, he would then pretend that he was actually thinking about something else.

    The problem was that when Ji Yuan had his beard, this was actually not obvious. But when a beardless Ji Yuan was rubbing his chins, he looked extremely obvious because he looked more like a lecherous cultivator who was googling on a maiden; when he was rubbing his chins, he actually looked like a lecherous man that was hinting that he would like to rub against their bodies than pretending to be pondering away.

    Bai Qianfeng whom had spent countless moons with Ji Yuan in the Dream Trial, knew all his dirty secrets.

 Chapter 537 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (7) R18

    The contestants inside the arena trial were naturally pleased that there was a special reward for killing the hunters and many of them were already thinking on how to kill the hunters to get the +9 Points immediately.

    After all, the cultivator with the highest points would be able toy their hands on the super rare celestial-step robe and this would greatly strengthen their profound defense. For golden saints that have yet to face their lightning tribtion, this is a profound treasure that could even be handy against the lightning tribtion!

    Most of them did not even suspect that this was a trap to kill the cultivators for the five hunters were all formidable cultivators and they had many profound treasures with them.

    Naturally when the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden saw that Steward Gu Bugu was entering the arena trial himself, they were startled and were uneasy.

    The Lovely Empress was worried that she may be treated as an enemy if she was seen in thepany of the old freak and Steward Gu Bugu would punish her in ways that she could not imagined; it was because she had the reputation as an adorable ything and she had rejected the advances of Steward Gu Bugu all too many times in the past.

    Inside the arena trial, 4 hours had now passed.

    In the greater area of the third trial.

    A male unorthodox cultivator was now putting on his pants and he was also from the Heavens Separation Fraternity and he was looking extremely pleased with himself.

    In front of him was a beautiful naked heroine of the Heavens Separation Fraternity and he had just finished copting with her. This heroine was actually the nobledy of a renowned celestial n and was married to another renowned celestial n in his fraternity. She was also in the list of the top 30 most beautiful saintesses and she used to have many suitors.

    But today he, an unorthodox cultivator had managed to brutally savage and explored all parts of her body so naturally he was feeling extremely pleased with himself.

    Usually back in the Heavens Separation Fraternity, it was impossible for orthodox and unorthodox cultivators to mix with one another and when they did, a fight was inevitable.

    This male unorthodox cultivator then began to take souvenirs of his exploits immediately by pocketing her high ss undies into his spatial storage.

    The naked heroine did not stop him for she was already used to it by now. And also because she was too exhausted to do anything and could only spread her naked legs wide for the male unorthodox cultivator to feast with his eyes; this male unorthodox cultivator was really too ravage and did not spare her delicate body and had covered her with his marks.

    However she was pleased as well for both of them had scored +3 Points for copting with each other.

    Like Ji Yuan, this was her first time in Bliss City and she did not know that her dirty affairs were being broadcast. Since she had arrived in this wondend, she had been affected by the lusts that she had seen and she had be wanton due to the presence of the many beautiful men presented.

    The male unorthodox cultivator was suddenly bending now to y with her firm perky bosoms and also her forbidden valley with his fingers while saying suddenly to her in a threatening tone. "If you don''t give me your heaven-step divine sword and your golden talisman then I am afraid that I will have to kill you now. And I also want your 1 Points as well."

    The heroine was shocked when he had suddenly threatened her when she was at her most vulnerable, "What did you just say?"

    The male unorthodox cultivatorughed wickedly as he shed his earth-step divine sword to her throat, "While you have the most tempting body and I would love to copte you over and over again but the lure of the celestial-step divine robe is even more tempting for me."

    The heroine was outraged but there was nothing that she could do.

    So she was forced to surrender her divine sword, one golden talisman and 1 Point to this male unorthodox cultivator.

    She said impolitely, "I shall remember this¡­"

    All of a sudden the male unorthodox cultivator had mustered all his profound power to piece through her throat as he said, "I am afraid that you won''t have the chance."

    Once she was immobilized with her injuries to her neck, the male unorthodox cultivator began to sh into her naked body multiple times with all his profound strength before finally killing her for +3 Points.

    He heaved a soft sigh, "These renowned orthodox cultivators are really hard to kill. If she is not in this vulnerable state, I won''t be able to kill her so easily."

    Now he was looking even more pleased with himself because he had scored +7 Points just from this renowned heroine alone.

    Although he felt it was a little pity but a celestial-step divine robe would be able to buy him even more heaven-defying beauties. When he is rich in the future, all the maidens, whether married or unmarried will be throwing themselves at him anyway. So what is one beautiful heroine to him?

    All of a sudden, he had frozen in his tracks but he was also delightful for in front of him was the Smiling Divine Maiden and another man that he did not recognize.

    In Bliss City, the Smiling Divine Maiden was like most peerless maiden and there was no price that was attached to her. Even the Lovely Empress had a price tag of 50 million high grade spirit stones but not the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Therefore this male unorthodox cultivator had always wanted to copte with the Smiling Divine Maiden and to make her into his trophy. And to think that she would be in this trial together with him. He had no doubt that the Smiling Divine Maiden had already copted with many other men.

    So he quickly smiled to her, "Is this the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue? Do you want to copte with me for 3 points¡­"

    Before he could finish, Ji Yuan had angrily shed his saint-step divine sword and knocked him brutally to the ground.

    The male unorthodox cultivator was only a saint and when he saw Ji Yuan''s great saint aura zing in front of him and also he had a saint-step divine sword, he was panicky and shouted. "Hero, please have mercy on me! I didn''t do anything to the two of you and I have no feuds with you!"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "I saw what you did. I can spare you if you give me two golden talismans. Also you have to give me 1 point and also 1 point to the maiden that is next to me."

    The male unorthodox cultivator stammered with fright, "Alright¡­"

    And he had surrendered two golden talismans and +1 Point to Ji Yuan. As for the Smiling Divine Maiden, he had also transferred another +1 Points to her.

    After he had transferred the points, both Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly attacked him at the same time!

    The male unorthodox cultivator was so taken by surprise that he had fell onto the ground with a loud thunderous bang.

    Ji Yuan disyed his saint-step divine sword and killed the male unorthodox cultivator while he asked the Smiling Divine Maiden, "I thought that you don''t want to kill anyone?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coldly, "You should worry for your broken promise first. I fear for your soul sea. This type of man truly deserves to die."

    Then she turned to ask Ji Yuan, "Why did you give me 1 point for? I don''t need it."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulder as he chuckled, "It is free anyway. Haha¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said with a look of anxiety in her captivating golden eyes, "These five hunters are not easy to deal with. If they did not see us, don''t ever fight them. Remember this!"

    Then she paused briefly to say, "Also, we are looking for my sister the Lovely Empress now. Along the way, if you happen to see an old man with a dark hood, run immediately! Don''t ever think of engaging him. I can assure you that you will die most horribly if you were toy even a little finger on him."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and was startled, "I will die if Iy my little finger on him? This is too exaggerating, am I right? I am after all, a peaked great saint. He is even stronger than Gu Sangu?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly turned to look at Ji Yuan with her captivating soft eyes as she said softly, "You must listen to me. Even if the two of usbined together, we won''t stand a chance!"

    Ji Yuan hummed before he said firmly, "There is no unbeaten foe in my dictionary. I have already learnt a miracle sword art here and I don''t believe anyone can withstand the power of my Grand Cross. It is different from the miracle art that you have seen. It is 5 times stronger than the miracle sword that you have seen. I will protect you from him¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, "This grand cross is 5 times stronger? And you¡­"

    All of a sudden she was flustered, "And you will protect me from that old man?"

    Ji Yuan quicklyughed, "And also the Lovely Empress of course."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    All of a sudden she had hummed coldly and had sped away.

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he muttered, "Why is she so angry all of a sudden? She don''t believe that I can protect both the Lovely Empress and her from that old man?"

    He had quickly shed to her, "Did I say anything wrong?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered unhappily, "Tell me about this Grand Cross of yours. If it is so powerful, then why don''t you use it earlier?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "This one needs me to use two saint-step divine swords. In short, I need my spirit animus in order to use this Grand Cross. The current me, is incapable of using it right now."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, are you trying to pull my legs here?"

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile, "I am actually trying to ask if you got any free profound pills for me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked at him unpleasantly with her captivating golden eyes, "Why don''t you go one corner to die instead? It is no wonder my sister calls you the free of charge man."

    Ji Yuan growled immediately, "What? She actually calls me that?!"

 Chapter 538 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (8)

    6 hours had passed inside the arena trial.

    A group of three male cultivators had grouped together to fight a terrifying seventh rank profound beast and they were all sweating heavily; they had been pushed into the corner of the city tall blocks by this monster and they were being forced to fight it now.

    Their group consists of 3 saints. 2 were saints in the initial stage and 1 was in the middle stage.

    These three cultivators were already injured by the divine lightning in the lesser area and it took them a long time to find the ck portals. As a result, they had decided to group together for their own protection after they had met in the greater area.

    It was not a bad suggestion because there were many great saints that were roaming in the greater area. These great saints had less troubles with the divine lightning as they had experienced their lightning tribtion already.

    They had figured that 3 golden saints were equaled to one badass great saint so they had grouped together for protection as well as to find a route to the safe area.

    So when the special reward was announced, they were extremely delighted. This meant that all they needed to do was to kill a single hunter and they could get +9 Points. As long as they were able to stay united, killing 3 hunters were not an issue for them.

    Also, all they needed to do was to find 3 female cultivators to copte with them and they all could score +9 Points; they couldplete the trial in this way as well.

    Now this seventh rank profound deste monster was shaped like a jelly with eight legs and it was shooting 8 barbed tenacles and spinning it, creating a wave of 360-degree destruction that exploded the surroundings with its tremendous profound power.

    Lucky for them, the middle saint cultivator was also a defense type and he was also capable of summoning a fifth rank defense spirit animus as he stood in front of the seventh rank profound deste monster to absorb all the iing profound attacks for his 2 otherpanions.

    The 2 saint cultivators behind his back were naturally grateful because the profound power of this deste monster was simply too great for them to handle and they had been fighting against it for nearly 30 minutes without even managing to wound it.

    Even the middle saint cultivator was beginning to lose his hope and he was coughing out blood now as he thought: If this monster uses this devastating attack again, I can only hold off one more time before my defensive spirit animus disappears¡­

    All of a sudden a dark shadow had appeared just behind the monster and a sh of brilliant light from his divine sword could be seen.

    All of a sudden, this jelly like deste monster was cut into halves as a sense of awe could be felt from all 3 of the cultivators who was finally seeing hope.

    The middle saint cultivator muttered weakly but he was spirited again, "This is¡­ a divine power profound art¡­"

    All of a sudden the dark figure had shed to the middle saint cultivator and the 2 saint cultivators behind with a long shing line that was powered by his divine profound art, killing all three instantly by severing even their golden bodies.

    The dark figure merely said, "I am the Hunter East King and I''m not here to save the three of you. It is just that this monster blocks my way. Are the three of you really golden saints? You can''t even take a single hit from my divine profound art."

    As he coolly walked away, two dark figures had suddenly shed in front of him and had struck him with so much force that he was sent flying against the incredible hard stone walls andnded with a huge thunderous impact.

    One of the dark figures was naturally Ji Yuan and he had disyed a quick strike with saintly divine sword by mustering all his profound strength to strike at the forehead of the Hunter East King.

    He was saying, "Are you sure you are a golden saint cultivator? You can''t even sense we are behind you. Is a hunter so weak?"

    The skull was naturally the hardest part of a golden celestial''s golden body and was extremely hard. Even Ji Yuan''s saintly divine sword could only pierce through a little and it was not enough to kill the Hunter East King who had be enraged that he had been surprised by two sneaky cultivators.

    All of a sudden, the other dark figure had shed forward to severe the Hunter East King''s neck with her secret immortal-step divine sword that was hidden under her sleeves and she was naturally the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Why did you aim for the forehead?" The Smiling Divine Maiden was annoyed by Ji Yuan. "These hunters are not weak and what if they retaliate against us?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I did it for two reasons."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ???

    Ji Yuan continued with his chuckles, "Firstly, you have killed this hunter now and you have +10 Points now. So you are now able toplete the trial."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was infuriated with Ji Yuan; she did not know why in front of him, she had lost her cool for quite a few times already.

    "Have you forgotten that it doesn''t matter to me? So what if I can''t pass the trial?"

    Ji Yuan ignored her as he continued, "Secondly, you have now killed a hunter, one of your own. So you are now on my side."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, "You! You''ve done it on purpose then?!"

    Ji Yuan nodded with a grin, "So what if I did?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to storm off, "It is no wonder that you did not even use any of your profound sword arts. Hmph! Next time don''t expect me toe to your aid!"

    Ji Yuan had immediately shed to her as he tried to change to a new conversation, "I really don''t understand why you need so many high grade spirit stones for? Are you in debt?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden simply answered while keeping her captivating countenance away from Ji Yuan, "I am collecting for my master."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "How many high grade spirit stones does he needs?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden did not know why she had answered Ji Yuan but she did, "Not so many. Only 30 Billion high grade spirit stones. It is a 50% increase fromst time. My master exined to me that it is urgent."

    Ji Yuan almost fainted when he had heard of the figures and he was cursing Yun Chi: Why did she need so many high grade spirit stones for?!

    "It is not my concern to question my master. My loyalty to my master is absolute." Answered the Smiling Divine Maiden nonchntly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Elsewhere in the greater area.

    A female cultivator was smiling.

    She was an unorthodox cultivator, a viiness and also a most petite maiden.

    And she already had +120 Points from sleeping with 20 male cultivators and from killing all of them.

    She felt very good and proud of her smartness; this celestial-step robe was definitely going to be hers for sure.

    Now she was going to look for her 21st victim.

    All of a sudden, a dark figure had shed from the top of the broken city blocks and had ambushed her.

    It was a hunter and he had used a divine profound art to kill her instantly.

    And when she had died, she did not even know that she had died; it was totally painless.

    He merely said, "I am the Hunter South King. You are not as beautiful as the Lovely Empress or the Smiling Divine Maiden, therefore I am not interested in you. So you deserve to die."

 Chapter 539 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (9)

    8 hours into the third arena trial.

    A most beautiful and peerless maiden who looked more like a coyly ything in short skirts was now moving cautiously with a hooded short old man.

    This peerless coyly ything was none other than the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who had called herself the Innocent Empress as her fake alias while she followed the hooded short old man that was known as the Sugar Daddy.

    The winds were getting heavier now and the Lovely Empress was getting anxious because this short old man seemed to be wandering in circles around the imposing city blocks. And she knew that the safe area was in the other direction, far, far away.

    And she wanted to reach the safe area because once she was there, she would be protected by the mysticws of this ce and no cultivators would be able to hurt one another.

    So she said sweetly, "Sugar Daddy, I think that we are just moving in circles? And most probably in the wrong direction as well. Um erm¡­ do you need my help to show you a way?"

    The short old man frowned before he said, "No need."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    She hummed with a captivating and yet nonchnt voice, "Hmph! Up to you!"

    But all of a sudden she was gasping with shock, "Be careful!"

    It was because a dark figure had suddenly appeared in the vast city street in front and when he hade into view, he was the Hunter West King and he was known for his extreme vicious and brutality. None of the women that he had taken was able to survive a night of coption with him save for the female golden celestials. And even if the maidens were golden celestials, they were also badly broken by him.

    The Hunter West King began tough cruelly as he disyed his formidable profound aura to indicate that he was a great saint in the upper realm cultivation. "I wonder who my next victims will be. So it will actually be the Lovely Empress. You are in bad luck today, unfortunately."

    Then he looked at the short old man with a mocking smirk, "As for this old man, once I''ve finished him off, I will have my fun with you..."

    All of a sudden, the Hunter West King was violently pped to the ground by the short old man that had suddenly appeared next to him and he was hearing the old voice of the old man. "You are a mere low level great saint. The one that sends you here isn''t a good leader for he did not tell you who I am¡­"

    Then before he could react on the ground, in the next blink of an eye, sword energies began to explod onto him as the old man had suddenly punched him into the chest where his heart was and he was staring with shock, "You are a peaked great saint.. but how can¡­ there be¡­ such power¡­ disparity¡­"

    The short old man did not reply to him but he had continued to use his sword profound fingers on him until his target was dead.

    Finally he said with his old voice as he got up, "You are merely only a distraction that is sent by your leader. Your cultivation realm is forcefully raised to that of a great saint. Even though you are a great saint but you are just a weak great saint. This is to ensure that you can''tpete with your leader in the future."

    Although peaked great saints are the maximum cultivation realms but all the cultivators have taken different steps to reach this pinnacle. And there are strong peaked great saints and weak peaked great saints.

    Then he had turned back to sigh heavily.

    It was because the Lovely Empress had taken the opportunity to flee from the scene.

    As the Lovely Empress began her escape, her heart was anxious for Ji Yuan as she sighed with heartbreaking concern for his well-being, "Ji Yuan, you must not die in this ce. I''m sorry that I''ve got you here into this ce. And I mustn''t die in this ce as well¡­"

    Then she mused lovingly and her golden eyes were full of adoration as she cursed him, "Ji Yuan, you''re just a free of charge man heehee¡­"

    The short old man hummed coldly as he looked at the back of the fleeing Lovely Empress, "You can run but you can''t hide, Lovely Empress. Do you really take me as an old fool?"

    He added slowly, "She will probably lead me to the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue so all that I have to do is to just follow her from behind¡­"

    Then he shrugged his shoulders as heughed in his old voice, "She is right. I am indeed lost in this area. But I have to look like a cool and respected old man, otherwise she will look down on me. I can''t have my enemies looking down on me even if they are dead. Haha¡­"

    ? Then he began to track down the Lovely Empress as he moved like a silent hunter, using the same methods that he had taught Ji Yuan a long time ago.

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere in the greater area of the on-going trial, a slender man was seen copting with a beautiful naked maiden in the shadows of the city blocks.

    This beautiful maiden was fully naked and she was very much afraid as this slender man who called himself the Hunter North King was forcing her to copte with him.

    Just a few short distance away from them, were the corpses of an eighth rank profound beast and a naked male cultivator who was copting with her earlier.

    This naked male cultivator was forcing her to copte with him so that they could join hands to defeat this eighth rank profound beast that was prowling the broken blocks.

    At that time she felt that she had no other choice but to submit to his demands so as to find a way out of this trial. Moreover she could also gain +3 Points. So in the end, she nodded to the demands of this naked male cultivator.

    But then this naked male cultivator was quickly killed by this Hunter North King and his corpse was thrown away into the nearest broken blocks street.

    This had quickly attracted the attention of the eighth rank profound beast but this Hunter North King still managed to kill it with ease with his Divine Profound Arts.

    The naked maiden could not believe that she was seeing a Divine Profound Arts that was being disyed and she knew that she would not be able to escape from her fate today. It was because the hunter role was simply to kill all the cultivators in this trial.

    When she saw that he could kill an eighth rank profound deste monster with such ease, she hadpletely lost her will to resist him.

    After more than 1 hour of plowingter, the Hunter North King was done and he was looking pleased with himself.

    He muttered a praise to the naked maiden below and said, "What a gentle flower. What a feast for myself."

    Then he had clothed himself and had turned to leave.

    The naked maiden was startled as she stammered with fright, "You are not killing me?"

    The Hunter North King merely raised his fingers up as he walked coolly away, "Don''t mix me up with the other hunters. I don''t kill women."

    With that he had disappeared in the darkness of the gigantic blocks of the ruined city.

    The naked maiden was stunned by his actions and also because she had gained another +3 Points.

 Chapter 540 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (10)

    10 hours had passed in the trial now.

    The cultivators in the third arena trial had 30 hours more to achieve 9 Points or to reach the safe area.

    Steward Gu Bugu or Hunter Gu Bugu as he was called now, was standing on top of a secret stone block that was taller than any of the towering stone bulwarks in this fragmented gigantic city.

    Along the way, he had already killed 3 cultivators. Unfortunately, he had not spotted the Lovely Empress or the Smiling Divine Maiden yet.

    But fortunately for him, he had not spotted the old freak as well. Fortunately because he was not yet ready too.

    In this trip, he had brought his four subordinates with him from the Dragon Faction; they were the North King, East King, South King and the West King. Among them, the North King was the strongest and he was also a peaked great saint. And these subordinates of his were now all called Hunters.

    The Hunters role were to exterminate all the cultivators in their path. The reward for killing one of them would give the cultivators that dealt thest blow a +9 Points.

    Right now, these 4 Hunters of his must be creating lots of havocs in the trial for they all possessed their own unique divine profound arts.

    Naturally he was the most powerful Hunter of them all and he was also the main steward of this wondend. If the Death God was not here then he, Gu Bugu was the de facto leader.

    This wondend actually had two factions, the Death Faction and the Dragon Faction. He, Gu Bugu had belonged to the Dragon Faction and nominally over the weaker Death Faction. He had his eyes on the three peerless maidens of the Death Faction for the longest time but due to the special mysticws of this ce, he was unable to force his will upon them unless they could sumb to the lust in this ce.

    Unfortunately for him, these three peerless maidens, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were all unconcerned with the depravity of this ce and instead they had used their avatar dolls to collect the useful memories for them while they continued on their cultivations.

    While he could y with their dolls, they refused to allow him to even touch them!

    To add insult to injuries, they had even told him that they had no memories of the depravities that he had done to their dolls because this was not useful information for them.

    Now he wanted to y with the real things!

    He was really surprised that the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were both joining the trial and even his brother Gu Sangu was intrigued. This was a golden opportunity not to be missed for the arena was the only ce where he could force himself upon them.

    He did not even care why they were here in the first ce. As long as they were here, he could make them into his women and even dominate the entire Death Faction!

    Once the deed was deed was done with them, he could simply report to the Death God Mingwang that it was actually their fault for entering the arena trial and they could not me the Dragon Faction for being lusty.

    The Deste Dragon God was the real master of the Dragon Faction and he did not need to be answerable to the Death God Mingwang. After all, the special mysticws of this wondend would be able to protect him somewhat from the full powers of the Death God Mingwang.

    At most, Gu Bugu would be given just a few ps for forcifully copting with the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress.

    With these thoughts, he was now grinning nonstop as he imagined them as his real dolls now.

    The winds were really strong today and it was howling soundly.

    With a smile, Steward Gu Bugu had raised the Dragon Subduing Orb high up into the air to summon Dark Sol Dragon.

    Immediately the dark aura of the Dark Sol Dragon began to envelop the entire tform and it was giving shape to the spirit form of a three-headed dark dragon.

    Dark Sol Dragon used to be one of the mightiest dragons and an opponent of the Deste God Longdi; it happened also to be a ninth rank unholy ss dark ancient dragon. But now Dark Sol Dragon had been reduced to just a sentient dark spirit that must obey the Dragon Subduing Orb.

    He said simply, "Imbue upon me with your might, Dark Sol Dragon. For the duration of this trial, you must be my spirit animus and lend upon me your unholy dark strength."

    As he said that, he had triggered the Dragon Subduing Orb and the dark aura of the Dark Sol Dragon was now forming to be part of his dark animus; his aura was suddenly forming the shape of a three-headed dragon on top of him.

    Immediately, his profound strength had also shot up to the peak of the eighth realm immortal positioning!

    Dark Sol Dragon would never be dispelled by itself because it need not feed upon the cultivator''s inner spiritual sea and instead the Dragon Subduing Orb would provide the source of its spiritual strength. And this Dragon Subduing Orb was also a saint-step profound treasure!

    Now for the duration of this trial, Steward and Hunter Gu Bugu was now the strongest cultivator in the entire wondend save for the Death God Mingwang.

    However the profound power of the Dark Dragon Sol could only work in the arena trial here as the ability to always remain imbued was actually powered by the vast secret arrays of this wondend.

    Once Dark Sol Dragon had been used outside, there were no seventh realm cultivators that could actually power the spirit animus of the Dark Sol Dragon and it was too draining to use its godly profound powers.

    Naturally such a powerful dark array was actually created by none other than the Dark Demon God himself.

    When the three True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm hade together, nothing was truly impossible for them.

    Now Gu Bugu had another title now and he was Immortal Gu Bugu now.

    It was now time to use his newfound powers to rip the clothes of the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress, forcing them to submit to him.

    As for old freak, he was only a seventh realm peaked great saint and there was a limit to his profound strength.

    Immortal Gu Bugu was now smiling; he was now 8 times more powerful than ever before. And when he had transformed into his draconian form, there was virtually nothing that could harm him.

    He coldlyughed, "Old freak''s battle with my master the Deste Dragon God was so long ago. At that time my master is still in his weakened form. Moreover my master did not really lose and it was actually old freak that had escaped. Today, I am even stronger than my master in his past battle with old freak, so why should I fear from this old freak now?"

    Then he smiled wryly, "This Dark Sol Dragon is our secret weapon against the old freak if he dares toe again. And it is developed after his battle with my master so naturally he is not aware of this."

 Chapter 541 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (11)

    15 hours had passed in the trial now.

    The Lovely Empress sped through the ruined city gigantic stone blocks and there were only two targets in her mind, "Ji Yuan and the safe area."

    As she searched through the towering stone blocks, she was anxious for Ji Yuan. "I didn''t see him yet? Is he dead?"

    Along the way, she had spied more than 10 cultivators who were equally startled to see her. But before they could get to talk to her or to fight her, she had quickly disappeared.

    Then an ominous thought had dawned upon her as she muttered softly with shock, "That impure Ji Yuan. Don''t tell me that he has actually died in the lesser area of this trial and not in the greater area? If so then he is really a weak great saint¡­"

    All of a sudden she was startled because she had spotted the Hunter South King and he had just killed a cultivator.

    And the Hunter South King had also spotted her and he was grinning coldly, "I wonder who it is. So it is the Lovely Empress."

    The Lovely Empress adjusted her speeding posture into a standing posture before giggling with great loveliness, "So it is you. Well, we are on the same side. So why don''t you go away and don''t block my way here."

    The Hunter South Kingughed jovially, "My Lovely Empress. This won''t do at all. My mission as a Hunter is to kill all the cultivators. Even though we are on the same side but you are a cultivator now. Moreover there are so many spectors that are watching us from the outside. If I let you go, then they will suspect that we are conspiring together. In this case, this won''t do."

    "Then what do you propose we should do?" The Lovely Empress had a suddenly uglyplexion and she had readied to muster her profound strength in the next instant by readying a defensive stance as she adjusted one foot forward.

    "Of course I will be forced to copte with you. Hahaha¡­" The Hunter South King wasughing nonstop and told her his true intention. "After I have my fun with you, I will let my other brothers in my team to enjoy you as well. With such a delicate flower like you, how should I bear to kill you? Moreover you are the perfect y doll for me."

    The Lovely Empress chuckled softly, "Is that what you have been thinking of, all this while? You seem to have forgotten that I am one of the leaders of the Death Faction while you are merely a servant in the Dragon Faction."

    The Hunter South King crackled with loudughter, "Although I am merely a servant but I am still a great saint. Moreover, I am been honing my unique divine profound art while you are merely cultivating behind closed doors."

    The Lovely Empress frowned with displeasure, "I have the lofty ambition to ascend as an immortal, unlike you. When I am an immortal, you will crumble to dust. Then I shall see who will have thestugh."

    The Hunter South Kingughed aloud, "Not before I can break you first to my manly vibes first¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had attacked the Lovely Empress by shing in front of her.

    However the Lovely Empress was not surprised and she had raised her fingers into a chopping palm as she enveloped herself with her profound power to block his attack.

    The Hunter South King disyed a few stances before he had suddenly disyed his half-step celestial divine sword and he exploded his profound power through it, narrowing missing the Lovely Empress.

    The Lovely Empress was startled, "You have a half-step celestial divine sword?!"

    A half-step celestial divine sword was a grade between a heaven-step and a celestial-step divine sword.

    The Hunter South Kingughed with pride, "I got lucky with my heaven-step divine sword. Now with more cultivation resources, I will be able to turn my divine sword into a full celestial divine sword. Even though you are a peaked great saintess, it isughable for you to use your profound power to block my divine sword."

    The Lovely Empress wrapped more profound power around her, increasing her profound defense with her profound aura. "Try me then! This great saintess shall teach you a lesson that you won''t easily forget today¡­"

    The Hunter South King had suddenly raised his divine sword and a profound wall of profound power had suddenly exploded around him as he interrupted the Lovely Empress.

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly thrown back by this great profound power as she gasped, "Divine profound art!"

    And she had quickly stepped back.

    The Hunter South King chuckled as he flew to her again, "Your profound defense won''t be able tost for long against my profound attack. I bet that other than your mental cultivation, all your other cultivation levels must be a 1. Maybe even your mental cultivation is also a 1 since you have spent more time dolling your own appearances than cultivation. Muhahaha¡­"

    "What did you just say?!" The Lovely Empress was truly enraged, "Don''tpared me with that Ji Yuan!"

    The Hunter South King slowed down his profound attacks against the Lovely Empress, "Ji Yuan? Who is he?"

    The Lovely Empress chuckled with delight at the mention of Ji Yuan, "He is a cultivator that got almost all his cultivation levels below level 1 and he is so shameless that he rounded it up to level 1. Also, he is a good-for-nothing cultivator except for a beautiful face. Hehe¡­"

    The Hunter South King was startled, "This Ji Yuan sounds really weak."

    The Lovely Empress retaliated by kicking at the Hunter South King before replying with great delight, "Indeed he is and you are as weak as him!"

    The Hunter South King raised his divine sword as he disyed his divine profound art again, this time he had struck furiously against the profound defense of the Lovely Empress for her movements had been slowed down by him as he shouted angrily, "Do notpare me with that weakling!"

    This strike had exploded violently against the Lovely Empress and had sent her to flew against the gigantic stone walls with a thunderous smash and her profound defense was immediately weakened.

    The Hunter South King was smiling gleefully now as he had shed forward with his divine sword once again, preparing a new surge of profound power with his divine profound art.

    A great saintess was pretty hard to kill so he had to make sure that he would break her profound defense first until she could no longer be able to resist him.

    For that he was prepared to be ruthless against her.

    When he was upon the Lovely Empress once more, he began to disyed his astonishing divine profound art once more, this time he had used 100% of his profound power because this was a golden opportunity to strike at a weaken Lovely Empress now that he saw that she was not unable to escape.

    But all of a sudden, the weakened Lovely Empress had suddenly regained her vitality and she had suddenly raised her palm to strike at his chest with a thunderous impact.

    Even before he could react, the Lovely Empress had also struck his jaws with her other palm. Before he knew it, he was struck a dozen times and this scattered his profound defense!

    As he fell down hard onto the ground, the Lovely Empress had suddenly disyed a celestial divine sword and had pierced it through his heart!

    "You''ve a¡­ celestial divine sword¡­"

    The Lovely Empress began tough with great delight, "You didn''t think I don''t have a divine sword that is better than yours? But you didn''t lose to my divine sword. You lost because you are disying all your profound strength into attacking me while leaving your profound defense weak. As for me, I am just wrapping all my profound strength into my profound defense. Therefore I have used much less profound strength than you."

    Indeed. She had increased her profound defense to reduce the profound power of the Hunter South King''s divine profound art. And when she ''appeared'' to be weaken, she was actually preparing her profound strength to attack him.

    For the Lovely Empress to withstand Gu Sangu and Lin Antian for an hour, she was certainly not a weak great saintess.

    The Hunter South King coughed out blood, "Wait! Have mercy¡­ on me¡­ great heroine¡­ I was only teasing you earlier¡­"

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly as she kicked him in the face, "Hmph! I am no heroine. Try harder."

    The Hunter South King gasped as he tried to pull her divine sword out of his chest while gasping on the ground. "My Grand Nanny¡­ please have mercy¡­ on me¡­ I am willing to be¡­ your god-son¡­"

    The Lovely Empress rolled her lovely golden eyes as she ttened his face before she took out her divine sword from his chest to sh multiple times against him, "Grand Nanny?! Do I look so old to you?"

    Then she had killed him and had received a +9 Points.

    She muttered, "I''m not supposed to score any points. But this is free of charge like Ji Yuan, so never mind."

    Then with a soft delighting chuckle, she had disappeared into the darkness.

    Unknown to her, a short old man was following her and he was muttering. "She can really be so vicious. This maiden can really change her face from an innocent maiden to a vicious maiden in the next moment. I should get rid of her for Ji Yuan or else he will suffer in her hands in the future. And even his harem will suffer along with him."

    He did not need to be with Ji Yuan to know that the Lovely Empress had known Ji Yuan; it was because he was also aware that the Lovely Empress had saved Ji Yuan when he was fighting against Gu Sangu and hence, he had spared her life for the time being. Moreover he was now tracking her down to look for the Smiling Divine Maiden.

 Chapter 542 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (12)

    20 hours had passed in the trial now.

    The Lovely Empress was now cursing her bad luck for separating with her sister and also her bad luck to meet the old freak in the trial.

    The outer area of the third arena trial was so vast that all the cultivators were separated by many miles inside the Forbidden City of Death. Not only was this broken-down city a maze of towering stone blocks, there were also many deste monsters that prowled within the city.

    She had no idea how many of the 358 cultivators were able to survive this final trial of the arena.

    But her past experiences had taught her that they would either be ughtering each other, betraying each other or would be forming into groups to fight the stronger cultivators, everything for the +9 Points to gain themselves the extra 5 million high grade spirit stones or 10 million high grade spirit stones in total. They could even get more rewards if they were to kill a Hunter.

    To many of the cultivators, these high grade spirit stones were not a small figure, especially to a poor cultivator like Ji Yuan.

    At the thought of Ji Yuan, she began to sigh mncholy. At first, she had entered the arena trial to kill this insolent Ji Yuan. One look at him, she could tell that he was no different from a typical arrogant young master. The only difference between them was that he was dirt poor.

    Well, add one more difference, she had told herself.

    This Ji Yuan actually has no airs because he is dirt poor, unlike the arrogant young masters.

    And this was the difference that break down any barriers that they had and Ji Yuan was also someone that randomly offended people with his reckless mouth for no apparent reasons.

    At this thought, the Lovely Empress was immediately cursing Ji Yuan softly. "This Ji Yuan, he has no logical action to speak of..."

    All of a sudden, she had paused in her cursing for she had suddenly seen Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden in the jagged horizon.

    Ji Yuan chuckled when he had finally found her, "We are looking everywhere for you and almost died in order to search for you. But the first thing that I''ve heard from you is your curse against me."

    "Did we almost die?" The Smiling Divine Maiden was saying unhappily as she looked at Ji Yuan with her captivating smiling eyes, "I am actually a good guide."

    But she quickly returned a faint smile to the Lovely Empress for she was so d to see her again.

    The Lovely Empress had immediately flown to embrace Ji Yuan, startling him as well as the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The Lovely Empress was now eximing jovially as she embraced Ji Yuan tightly, "So you little rascal, you didn''t die yet?"

    When she saw Ji Yuan, there was actually shimmering tears in her eyes...

    Ji Yuan was stunned when she had suddenly flown to him and had embraced him, "Uh... I have actually almost died, haha."

    Although he did not want to admit it but he was quite emotional when he finally managed to find her again as he thought that it was so good to know that she was safe...

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue did not believe her eyes; did her sister just embrace a man?!

    All of a sudden the Lovely Empress had also realized what she had just done and she had quickly let go of Ji Yuan. In her great delight to see Ji Yuan again, she had forgotten that they were technically ''enemies'' and that Ji Yuan fate was to die in this arena trial.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly as he said, "Now that we have met, we should form a group to reach the safe area, am I right?"

    The Lovely Empress nodded shyly before she turned to embrace the Smiling Divine Maiden coyly, "s, sister, I had killed the Hunter South King and got +9 Points by ident. I didn''t want to kill him but he is really too much."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled faintly, "It is alright. I had also killed the Hunter East King too and I have got +10 Points. He is really too much too. It seems that the Dragon Faction is just venting against us. Even that Gu Bugu is here in this trial now. I am so d that I have found you before he does."

    Ji Yuan had a most ugly look as he muttered, "And I have +4 Points only..."

    But the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Maiden were both ignoring Ji Yuan as they continued to talk excitingly to each other.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly felt so lonely because no one was talking to him now...

    The Lovely Empress was nodding lovingly as she said coyly, "I am so d to have found you too sister."

    When she had said that, the Smiling Divine Maiden began to smile faintly as she took a subtle look at Ji Yuan, "Really? I miss you too sister."

    But she could tell that the Lovely Empress was missing Ji Yuan more than her.

    She quickly said with a sense of urgency, "I am afraid that Gu Bugu is trying to use the dark powers of Dark Sol Dragon for himself. He is already so strong and when he has the dark powers of Dark Sol Dragon, I am afraid that no one in this trial will be able to stop him. Therefore, we must quickly reach the safe area ahead of him..."

    "Well..." Ji Yuan could not resist interrupting when he had overheard them. "If I were him, I will just camp at the safe area and wait for the two of you toe."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Maiden were both blinking their eyes as they looked at Ji Yuan; they did not actually think of this before.

    Ji Yuan pointed out with a loud chuckle, "The safest ce isn''t always the safest ce."

    "He is right." An old voice had suddenly croaked.

    Ji Yuan, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were startled and they quickly turned to see a short old man emerging from the shadows of the gigantic jagged stone blocks.

    Immediately both the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress had turned pale when they saw this short old man. It was as though they were saying silently together: Old freak!

    The Lovely Empress stammered out, "Sugar Daddy... is also here..."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What?! You call him your Sugar Daddy?! Are you his god-daughter?!"

    The Lovely Empress turned to Ji Yuan with a perplexed look, "I am sort of his god-daughter. What is wrong?"

    But she did not get an answer from Ji Yuan for he had already shed to the old short man with rage in his golden eyes.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was shocked as she panicky shouted, "Ji Yuan, don''t! Come back immediately! This old freak isn''t someone for you to lift your fingers! You will surely die if you fight with him..."

    To her astonishment and to the great astonishment of the Lovely Empress, Ji Yuan was now punching the face of the short old man and he was even pulling the short old man to kick him hard.

    The short old man was also not going to let Ji Yuan punch and kick him for free so he was also punching Ji Yuan hard as well.

    But the problem was, they were both using only their profound animus to the fifth cultivation realm. While it was extremely painful to the non-golden celestials, it could not kill a great saint even if they were punching each other hard for a full day.

    Ji Yuan was shouting to the short old man, "Old man! How dare you! Do you know that you have just provoked your Grand Daddy Ji Yuan? How dare you call yourself her Sugar Daddy?! Darn you!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress werepletely stunned that Ji Yuan was beating up the old freak...

    What was going on here?

    The short old man was also shouting and punching Ji Yuan hard, "You little rascal! You dare to punch your old man. Today I am going to teach you a little respect or I am not your old man anymore! Besides, she isn''t from the Deste Celestial Fraternity. How will she even know what Sugar Daddy means?"

    When Ji Yuan had heard him, he had begun to weaken his punches. "Um... you are right. As long as I don''t tell her and you don''t tell her what it means. Haha..."

    All of a sudden, the short old man had pushed Ji Yuan aside and he had turned to stare coldly at the Smiling Divine Maiden. "Ji Yuan, I want you to go to one side first."

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly pulling the Smiling Divine Maiden as she said panicky, "Sister, we should run now in opposite directions..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden cleaned her robe first before arranging her short skirt as she kneeled humbly in front of the short old man.

    This shocked both Ji Yuan and the Lovely Empress who did not know whether this was a dying tactic or should she run now?

    The short old man was now saying to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "I have said before. If I find you the next time, I will surely kill you. I had spared you thest time because there was another opponent behind you."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded lightly and even her faint smiles had disappearedpletely, "And I have also said before, I will not resist you and you are free to kill me if I am caught in your hands."

    Ji Yuan was shocked and he was shouting to his old master, "Old man, what are you saying?! You want to kill her? Sure she may be evil but I won''t allow you to kill her today!"

    The short old man had suddenly kicked Ji Yuan very hard away and had disyed his peaked great saint profound aura.

    This shocked Ji Yuan who had always thought that his old master was only a sixth realm cultivator, "Old man, you are actually a great saint?"

    He gulped before continuing, "Uh, and also a peaked great saint too?!"

    The short old man said coldly, "Ji Yuan, do you know that she is your senior prot??g?? sister? She is not only your senior prot??g?? sister but she is also my unfillial daughter! Do you still think that I shouldn''t have the right to kill this traitor?"

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "I have a senior prot??g?? sister?! And you''re her father? This peerless beauty here is actually my... erm... from the same prot??g?? n as me?"

    It was no wonder that he had found her moves to be very simr to his own.

    The Lovely Empress was also shocked as she stared at the Smiling Divine Maiden, "The old freak is your father?!"

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan, "Sister and you are prot??g??s of this old freak?!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered nonchntly but firmly, as she kneeled down defenselessly without a hint of disying her profound animus, "He is not my father!"

 Chapter 543 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (13)

    The Smiling Divine Maiden repeated, "He is not my father!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "He is not your father?"

    Then he had quickly turned to his old master, "Old man, she isn''t your daughter?"

    He paused for a while before he said solemnly, "She is really my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister? Why do you want to kill her?"

    Then he turned to ask the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was upset, "If he wants to kill you, why didn''t you fight him back? Do you need me to beat him upfor you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man immediately said coldly at the same time, "This is our family business and none of your business!"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said weakly, "Both of you are family alright..."

    The short old man had angrily turned to Ji Yuan to say, "She is one of the ring leaders of this ce. Do you know how many people had died because of her and is going to die because of her? So do you think that she deserves to die or not?"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "So what? You are her father and you want her dead? You are not a good father."

    The short old man snorted coldly, "She is a sword saintess and she has made an oath that the next time that I have caught her, is also the day of her execution. That is the reason why I have spared her that day!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said quietly, "Indeed! That day when you hade looking for me in this wondend, you had indeed said so and I have indeed promise you!"

    The short old man hummed, "Sword Saintess Chu Lixue is indeed a maiden of her words! So prepare to die..."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted him, "I say old man, you are indeed not her father! Because i don''t believe that you can give birth to such a peerless maiden. Moreover you want her dead as well."

    The short old man stared nkly at Ji Yuan before he said coldly, "Little rascal, you are so right. She is indeed not my real daughter."

    Ji Yuan stared at his old master, "What did you just say? I was only kidding just now..."

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue lowered her nces to interrupt, "He is indeed not my real father..."

    "Her mother is my concubine," Interrupted the short old man. "As for her real father, her mother has never told me or her, noteven when she is no longer around. But I had raised her nevertheless."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a hurted look, "When have you ever treated me as your real daughter? Have you forgotten all the abuses that you had ever given me? And you have never even taught me your secret profound sword arts. Can you even consider yourself to be my father? Even my n name is taken from my mother''s side and not yours!"

    The short old man hummed angrily, "If I don''t train you hard, can you even be a sword saintess? As for your n name, how many times must I tell you that this is the wish of your dying mother!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed back, "Hmph! I don''t believe!"

    "And that is why you have joined this wondend tomit evil? You can even join the side of these evil gods?!" The short old man angrily rebuked her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly cut in as he said to both, "I must say my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister is right. My old man''s training is truly inhumane. I can be a witness. As for why she isn''t taking your n name, it is all your fault old man..."

    "Why don''t you just shutup, Ji Yuan?" The short old man had suddenly interrupted him. "Whose side are you on?"

    Ji Yuanmely replied, "Of course I am on your side old man. I haven''t reproached my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister yet for joining this evil wondend yet..."

    "Why don''t you just keep quiet, Ji Yuan?" The Smiling Divine Maiden had interrupted him. "This is not your business."

    Ji Yuan immediately said firmly as he looked at her captivating eyes, "Do you expect me to allow my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister to be killed by my old man just like this?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ...

    Then Ji Yuan continued firmly, "You may be my only senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister here and if you are not around anymore, I am going to miss your smiles and where can I find you if you are no longer anymore?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked up to him with bleary eyes, "Ji Yuan..."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Besides, a peerless maiden like you shouldn''t cry at all."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden muttered softly, "An oath is an oath. Since he has caught up with me in this ce then this is just my fate..."

    "Fate can be changed." Ji Yuan said firmly as he had suddenly brandished out his saint-step divine sword, "Then why not let me change your fate for you by defeating this old man? What do you say?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked at Ji Yuan with a confused look, "You are courting your own death..."

    The Lovely Empress who had been keeping quiet all this while had suddenly spoken, "To be fair, it is all this old freak fault."

    The short old man stared coldly at the Lovely Empress, "Youngss, what did you say?!"

    The Lovely Empress began to hide behind Ji Yuan, "Of course I will be supporting my sister. Are you expecting for me to erm... support you?"

    The short old man stared at her, "Then what the heck is the ''to be fair thing'' that you have just said?!"

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "This is my fairest opinion. Do you really think that I will let you kill my sister without a fight to the death?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was gasping softly, "Sister..."

    Ji Yuan was also saying, "Of course I will also be supporting my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister as well."

    The short old man stared angrily at Ji Yuan, "Little rascal! Are you really going to fight your old man here? Are you going to be a traitor? Are you going to betray the righteousness of the sword saint code of honor? Or are you falling with her evil looks?"

    Ji Yuan answered nonchntly, "Old man, you can insult my honor but you can''t insult my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister''s honor. So what if she is wrong? Right or wrong, let our swords decide for us!"

    The short old man growled angrily, "Ji Yuan, then don''t me your old man when you are in your grave! I won''t go easy on you!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "When have you ever go easy on me?"

 Chapter 544 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (14)

    Ji Yuan was now pointing his saintly divine sword Xiang Li on his old master and he had also disyed his peaked great saint profound animus.

    "If I win this duel then you must leave the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue alone and also free her from your stupid oath!"

    The short old man stroked his long white beard before he snorted coldly, "Fine! But don''t me me if you are killed because I won''t go light on you!"

    Ji Yuanughed coldly, "You only know how to talk big in front of your Grand Daddy Ji Yuan here. I shall show you how a sword saint fights!"

    The short old man hummed coldly, "You mean with your puny sword arts that I have taught you or your saint-step divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan growled as he remembered his puny sword arts, "I am also going to fight you because you have only been teaching me your puny sword arts and not your high level sword arts."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had shed to his side and she was softly speaking to him with a humble look, "Ji Yuan, are you sure about this? I really don''t me you even if you don''t do anything for me. Really. This old freak is too formidable for you to handle..."

    Ji Yuan replied gently to her as he interrupted her, "I can''t allow my fellow seniorprot¨¦g¨¦ sisterto be hurt by this old oaf and horrible father. Moreover I am also challenging him because he is a good-for-nothing master that refuses to teach us his best skills."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now looking affectionately at Ji Yuan and she was not stopping him anymore, "If you die, I.. will surely join you... to be your drinkingpanion!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Better join me as my consort. Haha..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly flustered as she looked shyly away, "My heart is already... with someone else. Maybe in my next life..."

    Ji Yuan''s heart was suddenly heartbroken when he had heard that she had someone else in her heart. He was nowmenting who was the cursed guy that had greened him and he would kill him...

    The Lovely Empress had also sped to him as she said woefully, "Ji Yuan, I know that you are a level 1 great saint cultivator and you can''t defeat this old freak here. But don''t worry, I will surely be yourpany when you are dead. I can be your consort when you are dead."

    Ji Yuan was touched by the Lovely Empress as heughed softly, "I can ept that consort part but what is it about that level 1 great saint cultivator part? Am I really so weak in your eyes?"

    The short old man had suddenly said aloud, "Are all of you done with your farewells? If so, let start the duel immediately!"

    Ji Yuan had already stepped forward, "Old man! Since you are my old master, I shall let you have the advantage of 3 strokes!"

    The short old man hummed coldly, "You mean you want to let me sh you 3 times first?"

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "No! I mean you can disy 3 strokes against me and I won''t fight back!"

    The short old man frowned, "For a moment, I''ve thought that you are such a generous cultivator but you turn out to be so stingy..."

    "What? No personal attack in a duel! Where your martial honor?" Interrupted Ji Yuan unpleasantly. "Enough with the talks! Branish your sword!"

    The short old man had immediately shed out a white sword and it was a saint-step divine sword.

    A stunned Ji Yuan was now staring nkly at the white sword as he stammered, "When did you... have a... saint-step divine sword?!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could not resist saying, "He always have one. Ji Yuan, you don''t know about it?"

    The short old manughed as he waved his divine sword high above him, "Prepare to die! This is my first stroke!"

    The short old man had suddenly exploded the air with his profound sword energies and immediately the ground was lit by waves of sword energies that instantly crumbled the rocks into dust!

    Ji Yuan immediately raised his profound defense and lifted his saint-step divine sword to block the iing strike because it was nearly impossible to evade with all the lethal sword energies that were surrounding him.

    ng!!!

    A mighty ng sound was heard when Ji Yuan had blocked the attack but he was sent flying all the way to the back!

    The power disparity between them was simply too great!

    The short old man was furiously shouting now, "This is just my first stroke and you are already blocking with your sword?! Where is my free 3 strokes?!"

    Ji Yuan ignored him as he unleashed his super sword energies as he sent a wavering white sword energies that resembled a coiling dragon. Such was the force that the ground below Ji Yuan was shattered even as this super sword energies could hit the short old man.

    But the short old man merely swung his divine sword to deflect the iing super sword energies aside and exploded it nearby.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You can actually deflect my most powerful sword energy profound art?!"

    The short old man was enraged as he exploded angrily at Ji Yuan, "And you even attack me even before I have used my second stroke? Ji Yuan, where your martial honor?!"

    Ji Yuan disyed his miracle sword art as he shed dozens of sword images to deflect his old master moves, "I change my mind now. Haha..."

    In the next few blinks of an eye, the two of them were suddenly fighting furiously on top of a tall stone monument.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were now looking nervously at the duel that was taking ce.

    The short old man was shouting against the strong winds to Ji Yuan, "Hmph! Your reflexes are so fast now that you are able to block from my sword strokes now. Unfortunately, you have to use your miracle sword strokes in order to catch up with me and this is draining to you."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he replied bitterly, "Old man,please have mercy on me. The way you attack me, I really can''t maintain my miracle sword art for long. Also, you are way stronger than I think."

    The short old manughed, "So you are regretting it now?"

    Ji Yuanughed against the strong winds that almost drowned his voice, "C''mon. Show me a little face in front of thedies. Why don''t you let medefeat you?"

    The short old man hummed coldly, "Dream on, Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan said as he attacked and parried at the same time, "If you want to kill your daughter in the first ce, why did you force her to make an oath? You should have killed her a long time ago. So I know that you are only sparing her and hope that one day she will repent from her ways. Am I not right to say so?"

    "Little rascal!" Said the short old man. "Darn you! Are you the little worm in my tummy?"

    Ji Yuanughed. "Indeed I am. I have known my old man for over 200 years. Haha..."

    The short old man asked, "So what do you think I should do? They know that I am strong and how do you defeat me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he smiled, "We are on a tform so you can fall down from here. In this way, I can score a win against you."

    The short old man was smiling immediately as he purposely over-extended his sword profound attacks, "This is a good n. So let start our acting."

    All of a sudden the short old man seemed to be weakened and Ji Yuan had suddenly increased his profound power.

    Before the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely

    Empress could guess what was going to happen next, the short old man had suddenly slipped and had fallen down from the top of the stone tform!

    Ji Yuan had actually pushed the short old man into a corner with his miracle profound sword art!

    As the short old man fell t on his back to the ground, Ji Yuan had suddenly unleashed his ultimate miracle sword art and his saint-step divine sword had turned into a ring white sword.

    In the next instant, Ji Yuan hurled his divine sword like a piercing flying sword and had pierced it through the body of the short old man!

    The short old man was gasping with shock, "How vicious!"

    This vicious word had two meaning. It may mean Ji Yuan was vicious or his miracle sword art was too vicious.

    Ji Yuan muttered softly, "Sorry old man but if I am not acting ruthless, these two maidens won''t believe our stories."

    In the next instant, Ji Yuan had jumped down and was shouting to the short old man, "Do you yield or not? Did I win or not?"

    The short old man gasped weakly as he grasped onto Ji Yuan''s divine sword, "You win!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I have won. Haha..."

    And the two of them were secretly making meaningful looks at each other with a knowing nod.

    Ji Yuan knows that it is never easy to kill a great saint and moreover he had pierced his sword in one of his old master non-fatal part.

    After being subjected to grievous injuries by his old master in the past, Ji Yuan knew precisely where to hit to inflict minimum and maximum damage to his enemies.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress could not believe that Ji Yuan had actually won against the old freak and he had actually surrendered the duel.

    Lovely Empress was gasping jovially, "This Ji Yuan is really too lucky! That old freak has actually slipped when he was pushed to the corner..."

    There was shimmering tears in the captivating eyes of the Smiling Divine Maiden as she smiled with great disbelief, "He... has actually won... we have won..."

    She had unconsciously used the word, "we".

    As Ji Yuan was triumphing over his fake victory, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were both embracing him tightly and they were weeping jovious tears.

    Ji Yuan suddenly had two peerless maidens in both his arms and he wasughing softly, "Haha... I got lucky while he got careless..."

    He was actually saying: Haha... thank you old man.

    Xiang Li was dumbfounded with disbelief: Is this real?

    Anyang was blinking her eyes: Both you and your old master are both chatans...

    Xiang Li debelief had quickly turned into great delights: Woot! Big Brother has cracked the icy heart of the Smiling Divine Maiden now!

    Ji Yuan was now rolling his eyes with temptation as he looked at both the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress; he was moving his hands from their slender waists to fondle their butts...

    --------------------------

    Author Note: There are 26 Chapters this week. We have two exciting trials this week; the second and third arena trial.

 Chapter 545 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (15) R18

    Immortal Gu Dugu as he called himself was now ying with a really adorable naked great saintess.

    She had been totally broken by him as he forcible copted with her.

    She was so broken that she had actually lost her mind now because of the brutality of what he had done to her.

    In the end, when she could no longer cry in pain, she had chosen to lose her mind rather than be tortured by Gu Dugu.

    When Gu Dugu got bored of ying with her, he began to pull her by her long hair and he began to drag her abused naked body along with him.

    Soon he had encountered a group of 4 cultivators who were all shivering with fear when they saw him; it was because his eighth realm peaked immortal aura was suppressing them, causing them to unable to move.

    Immortal Gu Bugu grinned as he pulled the abused naked maiden in front of them and said, "This great saintess here really has a most adorable look and is second in ce to the Lovely Empress."

    He pausesd briefly tough evily, "I won''t kill the four of you if you listen obediently to me. Now I want the 4 of you to have fun with this great saintess."

    And he had thrown down the abused and naked maiden in front of them.

    The maiden looked up weakly to them and she was really adorable and she was also beautiful. However her golden body was broken and she was unable to move now.

    Moreover she was also drooling and she was staring nkly; this was not strange as she had already loat her mind.

    In normal circumstances, all 4 male cultivators would not even be her match, much less have the chance to copte with such a lofty great saintess.

    One of the male cultivators was already lecherously looking at the adorable naked great saintess as he said, "I know her. This is her first time here and she has a fiery temper."

    And he had already taken off his robe.

    The other 3 cultivators were also taking off their robes for this great saintess was simply too beautiful to behold.

    Immortal Gu Buguughed jovially as he watched the 4 cultivators began their assualt against this adorable and naked great saintess.

    "Good! Don''t stop until I say so!"

    Outside the arena final, Zhi Jiugong had broken into cold sweat when she saw that the old freak had caught up with the Lovely Empress and also the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Through the imagery here, she knew that the old freak was actually following the Lovely Empress but she was also powerless to do anything.

    By now, Steward Gu Bugu had already imbued the dark powers of the Dark Sol Dragon upon him...

    But her primary concern was with her two sisters first so she was paying more attentions to their imageries first. For now, they were not in any mortal danger from Steward Gu Bugu but from the old freak instead.

    Suddenly, she saw that the Smiling Divine Maiden had kneeled in front of the old freak.

    She was startled; what was going on?

    Is my sister the Smiling Divine Maiden going to submit to the old freak or is she pleading with him to let the Lovely Empress off?

    No, it isn''t the first thought that she had. It is because the Smiling Divine Maiden is absolutely loyal to the Death God Mingwang...

    Then she saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly disying his saint-step divine sword and the old freak was also doing the very same.

    They are fighting with each other?!

    Indeed her conclusion was proven right; she saw that they seemed to be quarreling and then the Smiling Divine Maiden had got up to approach Ji Yuan. She seemed to be saying something to him and so was the Lovely Empress.

    Then Ji Yuan and the old freak were suddenly fighting!

    Their fighting was extremely intense and Ji Yuan seemed to be having the lower hand.

    After a heart stopping battle, both Ji Yuan and the old freak had sped off on top of a tower tform to continue their duel.

    After several rounds of intense fighting, Ji Yuan was suddenly having the upper hand and the old freak had lost his bnce and had fallen off the tform!

    And Ji Yuan did not stop there. In fact he had ruthlessly used his miracle sword art into a piercing flying sword to pierce into the body of the old freak!

    Zhi Jiugong was shocked;

    Ji Yuan has killed that old freak?!

    All of a sudden she saw that the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were suddenly embracing the victorious Ji Yuan.

    She nearly fainted when she had seen this and she was even more stunned when she saw that Ji Yuan''s dirty hands were rubbing their waists and moving on their swaying butts.

    She just could not believe what she was seeing!

    Then she saw that the old freak seemed to stand up and he looked badly wounded.

    Ji Yuan seeemed to beughing at the old freak and they seemed to have reached a form of armistic for they were suddenly walking together in a group.

    What was going on here?!

    All these was of course noticed by Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng. They could not believe that Ji Yuan was holding both the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress just now!

    Yun Chi could not believe that Ji Yuan had actually won against the old freak?!

    Yun Chi now had a terrible headache; her two most trusted proteges were now with Ji Yuan?!

    What is going on here?!

    This entire arena trial was a roller coaster ride for Yun Chi becauss she could not exin the actions of too many things here.

    Yun Chi said with great unhappiness, "I am going to kill Ji Yuan even if he don''t die in there."

    All of a sudden her unborn daughter moved slightly: Mummy, why do you want to kill papa?

    Yun Chi silently said with great exasperation: Because he is ying a fool out of me.

    Yun Chi''s unborn daughter: ???

 Chapter 546 Bliss City Final Arena Trial (16)

    Ji Yuan was walking in front, along with the short old man while the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress had kept a respectful distance away from them.

    It was because the short old man had never said he would not kill the Smiling Divine Maiden or the Lovely Empress.

    Right now, they were just following Ji Yuan and if he needed any help from them, they would all gang up against the old freak.

    Ji Yuan whispered to the short old man, "Is it still painful?"

    The short old man frowned, "What do you think if you got hit with a miracle sword art and a saint-step divine sword?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "At least I never use my sword spirit on you, haha! Well, I don''t think you will be painful because my old master once taught me that real men must be able to take stabbing and can''t make anyins even if they are bedridden for a year. But since you can still stand and walk, it isn''t any much pain I suppose."

    "You sure know how to take advantage of your old master." Frowned the short old man.

    But he soon soften his voice to say, "I hope that you are able to guide my daughter Lixue to a righteous path.She can be as stubborn as me. Once she set her mind into doing something, she will almost never changes her mind."

    Ji Yuan nodded eagerly, "I will surely help to take care ofsenior protege sister for you, haha."

    The short old man sighed softly before continuing, "Once we are out of this ce, I will make an arranged marriage for you. This is something thatI have actually wanted to do for a long time. This is because you are my best direct protege."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly as he was already thinking of the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Really? Haha... then I shall not decline... haha..."

    The short old man stared at Ji Yuan, "Little rascal, you are indeed too shameless. You didn''t even say no to my request."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Is this the first day that you have known me?"

    The short old manughed as well, "Among all my proteges, you are the only one that can be my direct protege by being the most shameless but smart cultivator. That is why I have chosen you to seed me."

    "Haha..." Ji Yuan had indeed used the most unorthodox means to be a direct protege. "But you know, after I have be your direct protege, I have already regretted it. If I know you will break my bones almost every day and force me on your brutal trainings, I would definitely want to be just a normal protege."

    The short old man frowned, "Darn you. You are too spineless. When I adopted you as a baby, you still have to beg me for your milk!"

    Ji Yuan shruuged his shoulders as he muttered, "As if you can produce any milk..."

    The short old man: ...

    "You know. When the others are just a baby, they will tend to add strength, intelligence and wisdom but you probably end up adding physical beauty at the expense of your wisdom, which cause you to be a big mouth."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Are you insulting me that I have only a beautiful face?"

    The short old man chuckled, "If you are not an adorable baby back then, will I not adopt you?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    The short old man quicklyughed and asked, "Are you using my methods to train your two direct proteges?"

    Ji Yuan had a stupidified look before he said awkwardly, "Actually I have never hit them before."

    The short old man was startled, "What?! And Chengxi can be a sword saintess?!"

    Ji Yuan began toment awkwardly, "The minute i opened my mouth to scold them, Chengxi and Yan''Er would start to cry. Can you imagine if I were to use your methods? Therefore I can only abuse them with my mouth everyday."

    The short old man: ...

    "Little rascal! This is your biggest mistake! You shouldn''t have abused them with your mouth!"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Um? What do you mean? What did I do wrong?!"

    The short old man howled with displeasure, "Do you know what is your greatest weakness? You got a big mouth. Sooner orter, your mouth will end up killing you!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Howe I didn''t know that I have a big mouth? Care to give me an example?"

    The short old man angrily said, "You still dare to ask me for an example?! There was one time when you are drunk, I saw you boasting to some cultivators that the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce was too old for you and she was begging you to bang her..."

    "Wait a minute! Did I really say that?" Ji Yuan interrupted with a soft growl.

    The short old man continued, "Then I saw an old granny following you and she was beating the hell out of you."

    Ji Yuan began to frown immediately for he did remember getting beaten up by an old granny now...

    "Then why didn''t you help me? Since you are so strong? You actually allow your direct protege to be beaten by someone?!"

    The short old man hummed coldly, "That old granny happened to be the Matriach Shui of the Water Melody Pce. She is on par with me and I may not even be able to win her. Are you asking me to court my own death? If it is that Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing then it is really easy."

    Ji Yuan was now staring at the short old man, "You sure it is the matriarch of the Water Melody Pce?!"

    The short old man nodded firmly, "And moreover she had already known that I was there to follow you but she still beat you up and did not give me any face."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Sisi actually knows me back then?!

    Ji Yuan told the short old man, "If I tell you that I have banged the Matriarch Shui, would you believe me?"

    The short old manughed uncontrobly, "You really got poor taste. I think you got forced by her, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Well, sort of so...

    He was already missing her...

    And she was the only uncontactable maiden left...

    Ji Yuan quickly tried to change the topic, "Say old man, so you are here to save your daughter from this ce?"

    The short old man hesitated for a while before he solemnly said, "That is right. I need to bring her back. However her master is a half-step divinity and also a true god of the Deste Divine Realm. Should Iperish in this ce, I want you to take her away no matter what to fulfill this wish of mine. But it will be extremely difficult. I have already tried for many years now and have failed. Today is the first time in a thousand years that I have seen her."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and said with a soft chuckle, "What if I can defeat the Death God Mingwang and takes her away fromthis ce?"

    The short old man hummed coldly, "You are getting more and more shameless with your big mouth. If you can do that then I shall call you grand daddy for life!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Haha, I shall remember what you have said..."

    All of a sudden he had frozen on his tracks as did the short old man.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Maiden had also frozen in their tracks.

    It was because they had suddenly spotted a dark figure moving toward them in the fog and his profound aura had pronounced him aa a peaked great saint.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shouted a warning, "He is Hunter North King and he is the strongest under Steward Gu Bugu!"

 Chapter 547 Bliss City Final Arena Trial (17)

    The looming dark figure had already disyed his divine sword and he seemed unafraid that he was fighting 4 opponents.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had already warned everyone, "He is the Hunter North King."

    The Hunter North King was looking lecherously at the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress, "I am so lucky to encounter two of the most peerless maiden together."

    Then he grinned, "So are you fighting me 4 to 1 or 1 to 1?"

    Ji Yuan had stepped forward as he brandished his saint-step divine sword, as he said solemnly. "I shall be your opponent!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, "Ji Yuan, let me fight alongside with you."

    She was suddenly very concerned about Ji Yuan now and it was not lost on the Lovely Empress.

    But Ji Yuan smiled, "This is my battle and I want to fight him alone."

    The short old man was also asking him, "Are you sure? This cultivator seems very full of himself and he isn''t afraid of your divine sword."

    But Ji Yuan answered firmly firmly, "Yea."

    The short old man stroked his white beard, "You can still fight then."

    "Be careful, Ji Yuan!" The Lovely Empress had shouted mncholy to him.

    Ji Yuanughed as he went ahead, "My name is Ji Yuan, a great saint of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    The Hunter North King smiled before he had suddenly metamorphed into a leathery humanoid with wings with a burst of his profound aura, "If you do not know, this is my draconian form and I am not human."

    Ji Yuan nodded unsurprised, "I can tell that you are the same race as Gu Sangu since the very start. The two of you have simr vibes."

    The Hunter North Kingughed, "Then you know how powerful I am. I shall let you have 3 free strokes first or else you will think that I am bullying you."

    "Oh really?" Ji Yuan was delighted. "Then I shall not be polite..."

    The Lovely Empress was overheard talking to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "This Ji Yuan really likes free of charge. Do you think that he is just trying to get his +4 Points to +7 Points instead?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also muttering, "Now I am convinced that he really isn''t a sword saint."

    Ji Yuan was feeling awkward for he could hear the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden behind him.

    But he quicklyposed himself as he swung his sword, "Then I shall attack now..."

    In the next instant, he had suddenly disyed his two sword spirits with his saintly divine sword as he shouted, "Xiang Li! This time you have better not bezy! I need your help this time!"

    When he had said that, he had shed in front of the Hunter North King with two amplified sword spirits and he had unleashed his most powerful miracle sword art, the ultimate sacred sword as a stroke of brilliant light shed across his opponent.

    ? The Hunter North King was split into half immediately when Ji Yuan had shed past to him.

    This result was totally unexpected to the short old man, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden!

    Even Ji Yuan was caught by surprise, "This is..."

    He had used his two sword spirits and had even asked Xiang Li to amplify his sword spirits for the very first time and Xiang Li finally responded this time.

    Xiang Li was also surprised: I did this?

    When Ji Yuan used his amplified speed sword spirit, he could reduce his charging time for his ultimate miracle sword art but he had never though that it was instant and he had already disyed it on the move.

    Even the Hunter North King did not expect this!

    Ji Yuan praised Xiang Li: When did my Xiang Li bes this powerful?! This is a miracle sword art that I am using...

    Xiang Li was looking at Anyang beforeughing shyly, "I am so awesome now? Hehe."

    Anyang was shocked: I really don''t believe it is from you...

    Dream Mist who was secretly watching Xiang Li and Ji Yuan was sighing: Xiang Li, you are merely using my powers. When I am not around, your amplification is limited to just 20% instead of 200%.

    I didn''t realize that today Xiang Li will be using her profound powers in such a long time that I didn''t severe our link...

    Xiang Li only special profound power as spirit entity is the ability to amplify the other spirit entities but not herself.

    Ji Yuan felt that he had suddenly disyed the profound power of the grand cross with his other amplified sword spirit and he was staring with disbelief at the dead corpse of Hunter North King.

    At the same time, he felt as though he had used 3 ultimate miracle sword art instead of 1 andrge quantities of his spiritual force had also been used.

    The short old man was also dumbfounded, "Little Rascal, what did you just do?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "He tries to give me a free stroke and told me to hit him instead of blocking and evading it. Before I know what is happening, he is already in two parts."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden also found it difficult to

    exin, "What are you trying to do just now?"

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "I am actually trying to test a new style of sword stroke and before I can shout to him that nobody shall green me, he is in this state that you saw."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked curiously with her captivatingly look at Ji Yuan, "What new sword style..."

    "I think it is bad to give 3 free strokes to Ji Yuan." The Lovely Empress had suddenly interrupted with a giggle. "Cos his opponents won''t even know how they die."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Is this a praise or just sarcastic?

    The Smiling Divine Maiden resumed her questionings, "Ji Yuan, what are you trying to do just now?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Let me show you in the next fight. I think that Xiang Li didn''t uses her power for such a long time already so she has overextended herself, haha..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and the short old man were all startled as they asked together, "Who''s Xiang Li?"

    All of a sudden a most stunning spirit maiden with the stunning ability to awe all her onlookers had suddenly materialized with a soft giggle, "Hello everyone! I am Xiang Li. I can enhance the other spirit entites but not myself so I ampletely useless! And I am Big Brother Ji Yuan''s first spirit entity!"

    Ji Yuan face-palmed himself, "Xiang Li, you aren''t supposed toe out unless I''ve summoned you. Look at you! What is this scantity dress of yours?!"

    The short old man was saying immediately as he looked with great delight on Xiang Li, "This is alright. She looks good..."

    Ji Yuan interrupted by suddenly punchinghis old master, "Old man! You can go die first!"

 Chapter 548 Bliss City Final Arena Trial (18) R18

    25 hours into the trial;

    This trial also had another name by the Dragon Faction and it was the Wind Monument City of the Eternal Night for it was always night and windy here.

    Immortal Gu Dugu was still watching how the 4 cultivators were savaging the mindless adorable naked saintess when he was suddenly startled.

    It was because he was being soul-link to his half-brother the Hunter North King; if he had taken a severe damage then he would know immediately.

    Now, not many people knew that the North King was actually his half-brother. This was a secret among themselves. Only his other brother Gu Sangu knew of this secret.

    That was the very reason why the Hunter North King was very confident when he had confronted Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress, the short old man and the Smiling Divine Maiden; it was because he knew that Gu Dugu was able to track him down if anything was amissed.

    Moreover he was also from the draconian demonic race and once he had transformed, his body strengthening profound art was even stronger than even any of the celestials'' peaked great saints.

    The Hunter North King of course knew that Steward Gu Bugu would be obtaining the dark powers of the Dark Sol Dragon as well.

    Immortal Gu Dugu had suddenly taken flight by spreading his draconian wings wide. In the next blink of an eye, he had disappeared in the windy dark night.

    The 4 cultivators were startled when they saw that Hunter Gu Bugu was able to fly and he had also quickly disappeared into the darkness, leaving them to y with the adorable and naked great saintess.

    This caused them to get bolder now when Hunter Gu Bugu was no longer looking at them with a threatening manner and even his powerful great pressure had also disappeared.

    The 4 of them were now savaging the naked body of this great saintess more ruthless than ever before. It was because she was simply too adorable and beautiful for them.

    Cultivator 1 was banging into her secret moisty valley and was attempting to reach into her womb.

    Cultivator 2 was raming into her dry valley.

    Cultivator 3 was deep throating her.

    Cultivator 4 was ying with her full but firm pinky tits and he was saying, "The breasts of a great saintess is really so firm and I can''t get enough of squeezing her.."

    Everyone agreed with him for they should y with her firm breats whole day and would not be tired.

    Cultivator 1 agreed, "And she is so tight as well even though we have all yed with her for hours."

    Cultivator 2 was smiling with pleasure, "And she is ever so wet..."

    Cultivator 3 was smiling as he continued to push deep into her throat, "Let''s take her back and we can have fun with her all the time. She seems to have lost her mind already."

    All four of them had immediately agreed on this n of action.

    Among these 4 cultivators, 2 were newly promoted 5th rank golden celestials and they were from Bliss City. Another one was a 6th rank golden celestial from the outside. One more was merely a half-step golden saint that was also newly promoted and he was also from Bliss City.

    For them to feast upon a golden saint was already a feast and this was such a beautiful and adorable great saintess that this was a super great feast!

    As the 4 cultivators were gleefully ying with the adorable but broken naked great saintess, Cultivator 3 was suddenly yelling in pain!

    It was because his little brother had suddenly been bitten off...

    Cultivator 1 and 2 were also suddenly yelling with pain as a powerful profound force began to seal off all her forbidden regions, cutting off their little brothers.

    Cultivator 4 who was ying the pink tits of the adorable great saintess suddenly got his neck twisted around.

    All of a sudden her widely opened naked legs began to twist, catching Cultivator 1 and 2 by surprise that she broke their backs.

    As for Cultivator 3, his body was pierced through by the profound power of this adorable naked great saintess. This was easy to aplish since he was only a low level 5th rank golden celestial.

    The dull golden eyes of this adorable naked great saintess had suddene alive again and with a disy of her profound animus, even her broken golden bones were now back in their original ce and was regenerating.

    The adorable great saintess then disyed her half-celestial divine sword to slice all 4 cultivators to pieces as she hummed with a wry smile, "This is the price for ying me without paying!"

    When all 4 cultivators were dead, she had clothed herself in a simple yet elegant robe as she remarked, "I got +15 Points for the coption and +12 Points for killing 4 cultivators. Altogether I got +27 Points from them.

    She began to depart for her next destination before musing; when Gu Dugu had attacked her, she had used a powerful soul art to hide her conscience from the depravities that would befall her.

    Only when she had sensed that the monster Gu Dugu was gone then she had dared to use her soul art to regain her conscious again.

    As she walked away, she began to sigh softly...

    It was because 1000 years ago, she was not like this.

    She hade from the Sna Celestial Fraternity and hade from a leading orthodox celestial n. On her first trip to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she had been tricked to take a look at the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    When she was in there, she saw one of elders there banging a naked renowned heroine in the street and was startled. This renowned heroine was actually soon going to be the consort of her sect leader and she was also a renowned ranked beauty.

    The elder had also seen her. Instead of showing shame, he had began to show the full nakedness of this heroine to her by spreading her legs wide in full view of her before ying with her full perked bosoms by cupping with his fingers...

    And then the elder had shown her his full rod as he banged the renowned beautiful heroine right in front of her.

    This was a vivid sight that she could never forget before she shamefully fled the ce.

    Back then she was only a bashful saintess who had no experiences in the matters of coption.

    It was a lucky thing that it was forbidden to mention anything rted to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind and it was also forbidden to share details of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth due to its special mysticws.

    So when she was back to her own celestial n again, she had met the same elder that she saw inside the Wondend of the Esctasy Ind and she was awkward.

    And this elder had also recognized her.

    To her surprise, this elder had cornered her and without saying a word, began toy hands onto her.

    She had tried to resist but when she had recalled the dirty scenes that she had seen, she felt weak and wet within her. Before she had realized what had happened, she was already naked and the elder had already explored her entire body.

    That night, she had lost her very first time. As for her soul bound to protect her chastity, it was removed by the fires of the elder''s passionate kisses and her own passions.

    This was her very first act of coption but not thest as the elder shown her many lewd ways of coptions.

    Instead of being angry with him, she felt she had been pleasured by him.

    Since that day, she had entered into a coption partnership with him.

    This did not end there.

    He had also brought all the other 5 elders in the celestial n to copte with her. In return, they would give her all the resources that she would need to be an elder and also a great saintess.

    And she had also enjoyed copting with all 6 of them, sometimes with all 6 at the same time. She was startled when even the renowned beautiful heroine had also joined her to be their lusty ydoll.

    She was more surprised when even her sect leader wanted to copte with her in secret. And she readily agreed to be his secret ydoll.

    Actually she was renowned as a great beauty in her Sna Celestial Fraternity and there were a great number of cultivators that had wanted to copte with her but due to her innocence, she had rejected them all.

    It waster that she had learnt that it was her sect leader that had wanted to corrupt her in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind because he had wanted her body.

    But instead of being upset with her sect leader, she had willingly epted her fate.

    So in front of the juniors in her celestial n, she was the perfect untouchable goddess that everyone dreamed of banging but to her fellow elders and sect leader, she was their lusty coption doll.

    And so, she and that beautiful renowned heroine were shared by the sect leader and all the elders.

 Chapter 549 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (19)

    Just as the short old man, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were all gasping with astonishment that Xiang Li was actually a sentient spirit entity that could talk, she had shyly sped back into Ji Yuan''s soul sea by saying aloud. "A powerful dark animus ising our way!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Luckily there are only the four of us here. Please keep Xiang Li a secret..."

    "What do you mean?" The short old man had interrupted him with a bewildered look, "You mean you didn''t know that we have more than 30 000 cultivators that are outside and they can view through our imageries?"

    The Lovely Empress was blinking at Ji Yuan, "Cheapskate Ji Yuan, you didn''t know?"

    Ji Yuan stammered weakly, "I didn''t know and what is up with this cheapskate name calling?"

    Then he solemnly asked his old master, "Seriously?!"

    The short old man stared at Ji Yuan, "Do I look like I am joining hands with this ''Innocent Empress'' here to joke with you?"

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly be extremely flustered when she had heard old freak mentioning her random alias.

    Ji Yuan turned to the Smiling Divine Maiden who disyed him a weak faint smile as she nodded slowly to indicate indeed this was the case.

    He had pped his forehead hard now, "Who is the one that says we can''t be viewed by anyone in this trial¡­"

    Xiang Li was panicky: You mean everyone outside can see me?!

    Anyang muttered weakly: The two of you are the ones that were so confident that no one could view you. Luckily, I am not outside.

    Then she turned to Xiang Li to say: Didn''t I tell you to wear more clothes?

    Xiang Li: Big Brother Ji Yuan is too poor to afford me spirit clothes...wuwuwu¡­

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    All of a sudden, the atmosphere outside were quivering with a great pressure and all the gigantic stone bulwarks seemed to be trembling violently.

    Then a leathery winged humanoid with a powerful dark animus in the form of a three-headed dragon was seen in the dark sky above.

    The powerful dark animus had immediately pronounced him to be a peaked 8th Immortal positioning cultivator!

    Typically, 1st to 2th cultivation realm rank (Practitioner, Master Practitioner) are known as mortal cultivators, 3rd to 4th cultivation realm rank (Enlighten Celestial, Immortal Celestial) are known as celestials while 5th to 7th cultivation realm (Golden Celestial, Golden Supremacy and Golden Saint) cultivators are known as golden celestials.

    Those cultivators that can cultivate above the 7th level peak, either with profound powers or treasures are all referred to as the immortal cultivators by the celestial cultivators of the Celestial Realm.

    The real immortals in the Immortal Divine Realm actually have their own titles ording to their immortal cultivations but they are not known to the majority of the cultivators of the Celestial Realm.

    The cultivation practitioners of the Celestial Realm will usually refer to themselves as the celestial cultivators or just cultivators regardless of their exact cultivation realms since all of them are from the Celestial Realm.

    But when they met with the cultivators from the Mortal Realm, they will then assert their im as the celestial cultivators while referring the cultivators from the Mortal Realm as the mortal cultivators. In the Celestial Realm, if a cultivator has a 1st or 2nd cultivation realm, they will also be referred to as a mortal cultivator.

    Sometimes even a golden celestial will sometimes refer the 1st to 4th rank as mortal cultivators due to their insolent high horse attitude in the Celestial Realm.

    In short, the golden celestials are the elites of the Celestial Realm and even Ji Yuan simply refers the normal celestials as mortal cultivators as long as they do not have any golden eyes.

    Ji Yuan has a typically arrogant young master mentality because he had lived for hundreds of years with his equally arrogant fellow golden celestials and he is unlike what you will call a goody good MC that won''t bully the weak with his arrogant attitudes.

    Unlike in most cultivation books, the golden celestials here typically forget that they are once mortal cultivators and be the arrogant golden celestials that they hate, simply because centuries of being the superior beings had caused them to be so.

    As for most of the cultivation stories that do not have arrogant MCs, it is because the arrogant young masters are there for the MCs to kill and after killing them, the story cultivation world will only have humble young masters to submit to the MCs.

    A big difference is that the cultivators here like to show off their peak cultivations rather than hiding their cultivations like in the cultivations stories simply because they are just in arrogant and wants to impress the others, especially the maidens. Also, they didn''t want to injure themselves and the higher realms that they are, the easier for them to force the weaker cultivators to submit than force them to a deadly fight.

    The leathery winged humanoid with a powerful dark animus was naturally Immortal Gu Bugu and he was alerted to the scene by the death of his half-brother the North King.

    And now he was naturally looking with great arrogant upon Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the old freak simply because he was an immortal while they were all merely golden celestials.

    Typically, a low tier 8th rank Immortal is able to kill 8th rank profound deste beasts with ease, a middle tier 8th rank immortal is able to kill 9th rank profound beast deste beasts with ease while an upper 8th rank immortal is able to kill a 10th rank profound beast with ease and a peaked 8th rank immortal like Gu Bugu will be able to kill a 11th rank profound beast with ease.

    When he saw the split body of the North King that was lying on the ground, he was immediately enraged as he shouted almightily, "Who is that god-forsaken fellow that has killed the Hunter North King?! Is this the work of the old freak?!"

    The Lovely Empress and the short old man were immediately pointing their fingers to Ji Yuan while the Smiling Divine Maiden had lifted her hands defensively to indicate that it was not her.

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly, "Did I just get betrayed by my own group?"

    He had actually wanted to point to his old master but he was a little too hard.

    Now Immortal Gu Bugu was pointing his scaly finger at Ji Yuan, "So it is you!"

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly, "So what if it is me? So what if it is not me? You are so high up while I am on the ground. Do you expect for me to fly up to battle you?"

    Immortal Gu Bugu had suddenly raised his right fingers into a w as he hummed coldly, "You still do not know the profound power of the eighth immortal profound art? It is on apletely different level than a puny celestial like you can ever imagine. As for the 9th Immortal profound art, it is totally out of your 7th rank profound art imagination."

    All of a sudden there were powerful energy fluctuations that were glowing in Immortal Gu Bugu''s hands; the deste energies from the vicinity were suddenly attracted and was enveloping around Gu Bugu!

    The short old man was shouting to Ji Yuan and the rest, "Our sword energies is unable to reach him. Everyone takes evasive action and run!"

    "It is already toote!" Immortal Gu Bugu had suddenly unleashed a powerful dark profound energy that beamed in a straight line to the ground and it looked like a gigantic ck spear; it was powered by the howling profound strength of the three-headed dark dragon spirit animus.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden raised her defensive profound arts to her strongest profound strength as she shouted panicky, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    But before she could finish, she was swept aside by a thunderous dark light that exploded and enveloped everything as it swallowed up everyone including Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and the short old man¡­

    When this powerful dark profound energy had struck the ground, the entire rows of stone blocks below and by the sides were all pulverized by the violent dark energies!

    Immortal Gu Bugu coolly stared at the messy destruction that was wrought by him, "This is the true powers of the immortals and even a 11th rank profound beast was not able to withstand the profound attack of this stance of mine, much less a seventh rank cultivator like all of you."

    Indeed, when some of the debris were cleared, he could see the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, the old freak and Ji Yuan were all lying t on the ground and they were scattered all over the ce.

 Chapter 550 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (20)

    High above, Immortal Gu Bugu could see that his immortal profound attack had ripped off most of his opponents'' profound animus, rendering them defenseless or else they won''t be lying t on the ground.

    When a cultivator was not protecting themselves against with their profound animus as profound defense, they would have to depend on their body strengthening techniques and golden body to survive the subsequent profound attacks. This was not a wise thing to do because once the golden body of the cultivator was damaged, it would affect their ability to regenerate wounds and their profound energies.

    When Immortal Gu Bugu hadunched his profound attack, many of the other cultivators in the vicinity were shocked because it was like the heavens itself had been ripped apart with a powerful energy fluctuation in the spatial space; they saw a gigantic beam of light and that area was totally obliterated.

    All the arena contestants could actually see it and they were all equally stunned.

    "Oh crap, what is that?!"

    "I see a figure and he can fly?!"

    "He has wings and even use something like a profound art that we have never even see before¡­"

    "Isn''t that Hunter Gu Bugu in his body strengthening profound art?"

    "It doesn''t look like a body strengthening profound art to me¡­"

    "Is he an immortal?!"

    "Immortals can''t exist in the Celestial Realm¡­ "

    "I have heard that Immortals can''t use any profound arts that are in the 8th realm and above here because the heavenlyws of the Celestial Realm prevent its use¡­"

    "That is why we don''t have bad immortals in the Celestial Realm that are creating havocs due to our special heavenlyws¡­"

    "Can anyone exin what is that?"

    "How do we fight that thing?"

    "I think he will just massacre all of us even if all 358 of usbine together to attack him¡­"

    "Probably only half of the 358 cultivators are left now¡­"

    "I give up! I''m going to find the safe area now¡­"

    Even the monstrous deste beasts were quietly retreating from that area.

    At the arena''s spector stands, more than 30 000 cultivators were all staring with disbelief at the profound power of Gu Bugu and everyone was talking at the same time as well

    "What is that?"

    "This hunter can kill everyone..."

    "Is he an immortal?"

    "All the contestants will stand no chance against him..."

    "What absurb power?!"

    "He can fly?!"

    "And he is attacking 4 cultivators now..."

    "Is he trying to copte with the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress at the same time?"

    Yun Chi was twitching at the almighty profound of Gu Bugu under the influence of the Dark Sol Dragon.

    Although she was a peaked 9th immortal positioning true god of the Deste Divine Realm and this amount of profound power would not kill her instantly, the devastating dark powers of Dark Sol Dragon was still an attack that she dreaded.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped with shock, "This is an immortal profound power attack and an unholy ss¡­ He didn''t suffer a bacsh?!"

    She had once used her 8th rank immortal profound art to help Ji Yuan to pulverize a 7th rank epic deste beast at the Five Heavens Peaks (See Chapter 115) and had suffered a terrible bacsh.

    "This is an immortal profound art that he is using. How is it fair?!"

    Yun Chi nodded slowly while stealing a nce at the nonchnt Dream Mist who was indifferent to what she was seeing.

    She had always suspect that this mysterious Dream Mist was an immortal cultivator and she was so mysterious that even Yun Chi thinks that she may be a high level immortal cultivator from the Immortal Divine Realm.

    This confirmed her guess when she saw the Dream Mist was indifferent to a peaked 8th rank unholy profound art.

    Yun Chi was cursing Gu Bugu now: If I can use my 8th and 9th profound art in this ce, I shall show you what is the true power of one of the three true gods of the Deste Divine Realm.

    At the judge stand, Zhi Jiugong was trembling and she was bleary as she muttered. "It is all my fault¡­ all my fault¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Immortal Gu Bugu was now staring at the 4 celestial cultivators below him as he prepared for another of the same dark profound attack; If the first one doesn''t kill them, the next one will kill them. However this was just a threat to show them his true profound power...

    He was feeling a little lenient now because he was still thinking of banging the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden so he did not really want to kill them with his immortal profound art.

    Instead his real target was only supposed to be old freak.

    But when he saw the same handsome cultivator in thepany of the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden, he began to mutter almost incoherently, "I don''t even know his name. What is it again? He is my brother''s killer. Nay, he is just an insignificant ant that is more handsome than me so he must die."

    He had already seen Ji Yuan killing Lin Antian. Moreover he was also in thepany of the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden. He knew he was not weak and was also a great saint due to his profound animus. Also this man was also responsible for killing his half-brother the North King!

    Below, the Lovely Empress could barely move now and she was lying t on the ground. In that earlier powerful immortal profound attack, she had disyed all her spiritual force into her profound aura to resist the attack.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was struggling to stand weakly and her loveliness looked pathetic. However to Gu Bugu, she was extraordinary beautiful in this state and he could not wait to feast upon her. The more pathetic she looked, the greater was his pleasureter!

    As for the short old man, he was inhaling breathlessly and he had blocked the profound attack with his saint-step divine sword and had defended himself with his sword spirit. And he still got some profound animus left.

    The short old man was coughing hard as he had used his entire profound animus to tank the insane immortal profound attack, "I guess I am too old now. This is indeed a most powerful profound attack¡­"

    Ji Yuan was badly burnt by the immortal profound attack more than the others. Because his profound animus was weak, he had tanked the most with his golden body. And even his poor robe was torn now.

    Now tearing a robe with profound energies was a most difficult thing to do because most profound robes would offer protection to the profound energies first.

    One must know that profound robes here worked differently and could regenerate over time by absorbing the spiritual aura in the vicinity.

    Golden Celestials in the Celestial Realm do not need to eat, drink and even do any repair work even when their almost indestructible divine swords were broken. Given time, even their broken divine swords could regenerate back with enough spiritual force.

    There was only one word to describe Ji Yuan''s robe and the short old man was now saying weakly to Ji Yuan, "Little rascal¡­ honestly, you need a better robe for your own protection¡­"

    Ji Yuan was already standing halfway even though he was trembling very hard after taking such a devastating blow from the immortal profound attack. He had survived with Anyang''s help and his sword spirit. At that crucial moment, Anyang had taken a full profound defense mode for him to tank for him in the form of his saintly divine sword.

    Xiang Li did not help Ji Yuan to enhance Anyang and his sword spirit because Ji Yuan had told her to focus on something else first¡­

    Even though the short old man was dabbling wildly about Ji Yuan''s robe but secretly he was rebuking Ji Yuan silently: Ji Yuan, are you crazy! You have actually defended against his immortal art with just your sword, your sword spirit and just your golden body! Do you know that that you can get yourself killed in this manner?!

    Ji Yuan looked at his old master with a weak grin as though he was saying: I need every little of my precious spirit force in my inner cultivation sea for my profound attacks. I can''t afford to waste it on defending myself.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had thrown Anyang like a speeding bolt of white light toward Gu Bugu as he disyed his ultimate miracle sword art!

    Immortal Gu Buguughed as he easily deflected the streak of white light with his right w and had sent Anyang flying far to the other side!

    "I am already expecting this. You didn''t think I didn''t watch your battle imagery with Lin Antian?"

    Ji Yuan had disyed his other sword spirit as heughed weakly before he had suddenlyunched Xiang Li with another of his ultimate miracle sword and the speed was so fast that it zoomed past toward the head of Gu Bugu in another streak of light and this time Ji Yuan had used all his profound strength unlike earlier which he knew would actually miss.

    Anyang was but a red herring and a false distraction for Gu Bugu!

    It pierced the profound aura of Gu Bugu and had only slightly drawn some blood on the right side of his face

    Both Ji Yuan and Immortal Gu Bugu were both surprised¡­

    Ji Yuan had thought that he could definitely pierce the profound defense of Gu Bugu because he had seen Xiang Li''s speed earlier. When an attack was moving so fast, it would naturally convert some of the speed to more profound power as well. Instead of the profound power of his grand cross, it only had the profound power of a normal ultimate miracle sword art.

    A startled Ji Yuan asked Xiang Li: Erm, you didn''t work this time?

    Xiang Li was also guilty: Am I supposed to work?

    It was the doings of Dream Mist naturally, for she had blocked Xiang Li''s link to her and Xiang Li could only use her own profound ability now.

    Dream Mist was saying silently: Ji Yuan, if you don''t want to die. This is the best time for you to use Xiang Li as a wish. This is the moment that I have been waiting for. Or are you bidding the chance to use yourst two trump cards? Do you still have the profound strength to do so when the timees?

    After pausing briefly, she continued nonchntly to herself: If you are to make your wish then I shall kill this lowly ant for you!

    While Gu Bugu was calling the others as an ant, he did not know that he was also being called an ant by Dream Mist, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng.

    Now Immortal Gu Bugu was also surprised because Ji Yuan''s miracle sword art could actually move faster than he had thought and could even injure him slightly.

    Slightly because by now, the wound that was on his right face had already healed.

    This however caused Immortal Gu Bugu to be even more enraged with Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was now shouting weakly and he still could not stand up fully, "Gu Bugu! Are you merely a coward that only hide from your opponent in the sky? Where is the pride of your martial honor? Or are you afraid of fighting 1 to 1 with me?"

    The short old man immediately shouted to Ji Yuan as he fully got up now while still trembling, "Little rascal! You have better don''t be hasty. This is not a 1 to 1 fight anymore but a group fight! Only if we join hands together then can we defeat this monster!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also panicky saying to Ji Yuan, "The old freak is right. If all of us join hands together, we can still stand a fighting chance¡­"

    The Lovely Empress was still being immobilized and she was weakly saying to Ji Yuan, "Ji¡­Yuan, use the specialws of the arena trial¡­ to your advantage¡­ I will be most amodating¡­ it won''t take you too long right?"

    Then she added with great shyness and she was almost incoherent, "It''s... free of charge..."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he looked at the Lovely Empress; it was because she was openly hinting to him to use the specialw of coption to regain his profound strength¡­

    The short old man was also looking at the Lovely Empress and he was muttering weakly to her, "This¡­ is for our group survival¡­ to think that heroine here is so willing to sacrifice yourself¡­"

    "For you¡­ dream on!" Interrupted the Lovely Empress with a firm look.

    The short old man: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now saying to Ji Yuan and her flustered countenance looked really coyly, "Ji Yuan, I can be your¡­ willing partner as well. So long as we can defeat him."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly: I don''t want to do it in front of 30 000 spectors¡­

    Immortal Gu Bugu had suddenly air dropped himself to the ground with a loud thunderous bang which shook the very ground itself.

    And he was saying angrily to Ji Yuan, "Do you think that I am afraid to fight a mere ant like you?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he shouted with his profound voice, "Return!"

    And immediately Xiang Li and Anyang which hosted his two saint-step divine sword were flying back to both his hands.

    Ji Yuan was not afraid of losing his divine swords because divine swords were naturally attached to their master. Moreover Ji Yuan had already divine harmonized with both his divine swords so he could summon them with just his will alone.

    He got up to walk past his old master while shouting, "THIS IS MY BATTLE!"

    Immortal Gu Bugu wasughing nonstop; it was because Ji Yuan hadpletely fallen into his trap. He did not want to kill both the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress with his powerful immortal profound attack. As for the old freak, there was a possibility that he could speed off while he was charging for his immortal profound attack.

    Also, he did not want Ji Yuan to die a cheap death. He wanted to rip him apart with his bare hands and to take vendetta for his half-brother the North King!

    So he shouted loudly and his profound voice shook the vicinity, "You shall die most HORRIBLY!"

 Chapter 551 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (21)

    As Ji Yuan mustered all his strength to meet Immortal Gu Bugu face to face, he was saying softly to his old master, "Old man, you are too old! If you want me to win this battle then you have better honored... what you have told me, about that arranged marriage of yours!"

    The short old man said weakly, "I will! Go fight your best and don''t die on me!"

    He was sighing: You are buying time for me to recover my profound strength, ain''t you? Because I am the real MC and not you?

    Although Ji Yuan''s voice was very soft but the Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly looking very flustered: Arranged marriage? Us?

    Ji Yuan was now shouting loudly to Gu Bugu, "It seems that you are not a coward after all for daring to fight with your grand daddy! I am Great Saint Ji Yuan and I''m hailed from the Deste Celestial Fraternity!"

    Immortal Gu Bugu smirked coldly, "This fight will soon end in a few minutes. Say whatever you want. I am now called Immortal Gu Bugu and you don''t have to know where I havee from because I am not from around your Celestial Realm."

    Then he pointed his scaly finger at Ji Yuan, "There is only one sword art that you got, that can work against me and that is your miracle sword art. All your other profound sword art is simply too weak to hurt me."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly as he disyed his two sword spirits that were on his forearms before lifting up the saint-step divine sword Anyang, "That''s right. You must have seen my battle imagery then."

    Immortal Gu Bugu smirked, "This is indeed right. And your intention is to attack me with all the powers of your two sword spirits with just a single hit of your saintly divine sword. However, the difference between Lin Antian and me is that your miracle sword art won''t be able to stun me and give you the chance to charge up another miracle sword art at close melee. Also¡­"

    He was suddenly making loud chuckles, "Also I know that you have already charged up your profound energies to make your one and only stance against me. Therefore, this is actually your one and only chance against me."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "I won''t deny this because this is my n."

    Immortal Gu Bugu smiled coldly, "I am willing to give you this onest chance before I retaliated against you. Does this fulfill your sense of martial honor now?"

    Ji Yuan disyed a cold frown, "I am expecting something better from a superior being to give me a free 3 strokes head start."

    When the Lovely Empress had heard Ji Yuan, she was shaking her head as she muttered softly: He won''t give you any 3 free strokes. Ji Yuan you are hopeless. At this time, you''re still hoping for some free of charge free strikes against him. He is a most despicable man¡­ "

    "Alright. I won''t retaliate 3 times against you. Muhahaha!" Immortal Bugu was heardughing nonstop.

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    I''ll take back my words. You guys are all so cheap¡­

    Ji Yuan raised his thumb up, "Now we can truly fight now."

    The short old man was thinking: Ji Yuan, your sacrifice won''t be in vain. Immediately after your final strike, I will attack him...I will regain enough of my profound strength for some of my most powerful profound arts. Your aim is to get him to the ground, right? I am truly ashamed to let a junior like you to be a tank first to weaken my opponent for me¡­"

    Immortal Gu Bugu was proud that even his opponent was giving him a thumb up and he wasughing jovially. In front of the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress, he felt that he got a lot of face.

    Ji Yuan shouted, "I am ready to attack! Be ready!"

    Immortal Gu Bugu was thinking: He is stupid. He even warning me that he is attacking. Are all of the honorable celestials as stupid as him?

    Ji Yuan had suddenly attacked with all his profound might as he shed upon Gu Bugu and his Anyang saintly divine sword, empowered with two of his sword spirits that were further enhanced by Xiang Li for an additional of 20%.

    Ji Yuan had told Xiang Li: Today is our life and death battle, therefore no cking today!

    Then he told Anyang: You too, Anyang!

    And that was why today Xiang Li was really a hardworking spirit entity! If her big brother dies, she will be a homeless sword spirit entity like Anyang.

    Ji Yuan had actually shifted them to his saintly divine swords because he did not want them to die when he had died. He had told them instead, I need rooms in my cultivation core for my sword spirits, not weak spirit entities like the two of you and you are taking up my spirit animus slots!

    However, Xiang Li and Anyang were both spirit entities and they could sense Ji Yuan''s great love for them despite what he was saying to them.

    In the meantime, as soon as Ji Yuan used his miracle sword art to attack Gu Bugu but the moment that his streak of white light touched the dark profound animus of Gu Bugu, his profound attack was evaded and he had wasted his profound strength to execute the attack.

    A column of white light exploded like a brilliant re of white nova

    Gu Bugu had shed away as he watched the white streak of light expanded like a ballooning nova in front of him, "Usually no one can evade this when you are able to use it at close melee. It is because its range of destruction is too big. However, I am different. I am a superior being. So where is your second stroke?"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he had suddenly taken out a heaven-step divine sword that he had looted previously. It was as though he had already expected for Gu Bugu to evade his first attack. So while Gu Bugu had shed out of his way, Ji Yuan was already preparing for his real second profound attack.

    Gu Bugu did not know why Ji Yuan was grinning as he shed to a new location.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan had jumped up high in the air and he had crossed his two divine swords into his most powerful profound art the Grand Cross!

    This Grand Cross was 3 times more powerful than a normal miracle sword art. The power of this Grand Cross was not just its profound power but the white streak of light on Ji Yuan''s divine sword was suddenly extended more than 30m each, making evasion almost impossible.

    Gu Bugu gasped aloud as he raised both his hands to shield himself from this powerful profound attack and even his leathery wings were folded defensively in front but still he had received such a huge impact that he was flung away with a thunderous impact on the ground that arge pit was instantly created.

    This Ji Yuan is too dangerous! No more free attacks for him!

    At the instant that Ji Yuan''s Grand Cross had struck Gu Bugu, his heaven-step divine sword had broken into halves as it was not able to withstand the profound power of his miraculous sword art.

    Ji Yuan was heard saying, "Who say that I need my demonic cherubim spirit animus to use two divine swords¡­ I can just use a weaker divine sword with my saintly divine sword for my Grand Cross attack¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled because Ji Yuan had once told her about this Grand Cross super miracle sword art of his but he was saying that he needed two saintly divine swords to use so therefore he needed his 9th rank demonic cherubim spirit animus to use it.

    He lies to me?!

    Immortal Gu Bugu was really angry now as he slowly picked himself up with all his profound strength as he trembled weakly from the effects of the Grand Cross''s attack.

    Ji Yuan''s powerful profound attack naturally could not kill him and had only nullified his profound aura for a short period of time. In this arena trial, the spirit animus of the Dark Sol Dragon would never really die.

    He had only sustained some minor injuries which would heal very soon.

    The power disparity between them was just too vast to be ovee!

    All of a sudden Gu Bugu was startled to see that Ji Yuan was high up in the sky above him and he had disyed his demonic cherubim spirt animus which had caused his cultivation level to reach the 8th middle tier rank.

    Ji Yuan roared in the loud howling winds, "Now this is so much better!"

    He was of course referring to the great pains in his body that had lessened considerably, the increased flow of his profound energies and his superb recovery when his cultivation realm had be the 8th cultivation realm.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were both startled; he still has the spiritual force in his inner cultivation sea to summon his spirit animus?!

    Actually the short old man had already used his divine sense to probe Ji Yuan''s battle with Lin Antian and Gu Sangu so he knew that Ji Yuan had a special spirit animus. However, he did not know about Ji Yuan''s special profound attack, the Grand Cross which he had recently invented before he hade to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had meditated for 12 hours before he entered the third arena trial. Coupled with the profound pill that the Lovely Empress and his own speedy recovery, he had already more or less regained his entire profound strength.

    And of course much of his enduring strength had alsoe from the promise of an arranged marriage and also because he hated being green by Gu Bugu.

    Ji Yuan may not have a powerful profound aura whenpared to the other cultivators of the same level but he was really speedy when ites to his recovery, especially more so under the special mysticalws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    "Now this is so much, so much better!"

    Ji Yuan had repeated himself that he was feeling much better now; it was because he had purposely injured himself so that he could save as much precious spirit force as possible to use his demonic cherubim after learning about its weakness from the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The solution was not to use his spirit animus at the very start if he could not evade a powerful attack but save it until the veryst. That was why Ji Yuan had taken a gamble not to tank without his profound animus.

    At this moment Ji Yuan already got his two saintly divine swords into the position of his Grand Cross ultimate miracle sword art.

    Before Gu Bugu could even know what was happening, the entire heavens above him were lit by a bright white cross that exploded directly on the spaces above and on him; it was even bigger and more powerful than the first Grand Cross that was being used.

    The first time that Ji Yuan had used his Grand Cross technique, it had a x5 profound power. But with Xiang Li and Anyang working together with all their profound strength, this Grand Cross actually had a x7 profound power, which was x4 times more powerful than the first Grand Cross.

    Ji Yuan had used his time very well; when Gu Bugu was thrown on the ground, he had already summoned his demonic cherubim spirit animus and readied the profound attack of his Grand Cross.

    When Gu Bugu had died on the spot, he really could not believe it as he was ripped apart by Ji Yuan.

    The short old man, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Empress really could not believe their eyes as they stared at the scene; Ji Yuan had actually killed Gu Bugu!

    The Lovely Empress was flushing shyly as she looked at Ji Yuan; she had wanted Ji Yuan to copte with her but she did not know that he still had so much profound strength¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also smiling weakly, "It''s no wonder that he is someone that my master wants to kill¡­"

    She had suddenly remembered that Ji Yuan had grievously injured her master on his belly...

    The short old man was muttering, "This little rascal. Never be fooled by him and never, never gives him any free strokes or he will use it against you."

    But he quickly said, "He is indeed worthy to be called a sword saint and my son-inw!"

    Dream Mist on the other hand was not surprised as she said casually to herself: I did say that he has two trump cards..."

    As she had said that, there was a wry smile on her beautiful countenance.

 Chapter 552 Bliss City Arena Final Trial (22)

    When Ji Yuan had killed Gu Bugu, he immediately got +9 Points and now he had +13 Points. It was enough for him toplete this trial but he knew that he did not score the highest. But he would get 20 million high grade spirit stones if he could reach the safe area!

    A Hunter was really worth alot of millions of high grade spirit stones!

    When Ji Yuan had disyed his Grand Cross on Gu Bugu to kill him, he had also used up all his profound strength and hence he could not maintain his demonic cherubim spirit animus anymore so he began to fall down onto the ground.

    He waspletely exhausted from his battle with Gu Bugu and could barely stand.

    But as soon as he hadnded on the ground, he was immediately embraced by the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden who were both looking with great endeavor at him.

    There were no words thate from the Smiling Divine Maiden or the Lovely Empress as they looked at Ji Yuan; it was because Ji Yuan had saved them from Gu Bugu and they had no idea how to defeat this Gu Bugu with the Dark Sol Dragon empowering him. To them, this Immortal Gu Bugu was an invincible enemy but Ji Yuan had found a way to defeat him.

    Therefore, they could only look with great affection at Ji Yuan and mere words could not express the gratitude of their fluttering hearts.

    The short old man could only stare at them for a while but when Ji Yuan had regained some of his strength and he was starting to grope the Smiling Divine Maiden, he immediately said. "I am sorry to be a light bulb. Let''s go find the safe area and toplete this trial."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden quicklyposed herself when she had realized that Ji Yuan was touching her from behind, "I have the Spirit Divination Compass so finding the safe area isn''t a problem for us. Come, follow me."

    This was the first time that she had admitted to an outsider of the Death Faction that she was actually cheating.

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I am so weak now that I don''t think I can fight anymore. What if I were to meet with more dangers ahead of us? Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress said shyly to him, "I will fight your battles for you and walk you myself."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden were smiling faintly as she lowered her nces shyly, "Leave your battles to us. I will help to support you too¡­"

    And once again Ji Yuan was holding the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress. He waved to his old master with an excited look, "Old man! Remember what you have promised me!"

    The short old man was frowning softly as he thought: Weird. He has never seen my other daughter before. What is he so excited about?

    -

    -

    -

    More than 30 000 spectors outside the arena trial were stunned as they watched the battle between Ji Yuan and Gu Bugu.

    No one had thought that Ji Yuan would any chance of winning and this included Zhi Jiugong, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng.

    In the end Ji Yuan had won and he had killed an 8th rank peaked immortal.

    "This Ji Yuan can also fly?"

    "He is also an immortal?"

    "Is he using a divine profound sword art or a miracle profound sword art?"

    "This Gu Bugu is now dead so he is not going to massacre any one¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong was gasping with disbelief; it was because in this arena trial, all the ring leaders of the Dragon Faction except for the Deste Dragon God Longdi were now all dead¡­

    The Death Faction had been bitter rivals with the Dragon Faction for thousands of years. Outside the arena, no matter how bitter their rivalries were, they still could not hurt each other due to the special mysticws of this wondend.

    Elsewhere in the arena, even though Yun Chi appeared to be cold but she was actually not as emotionless as everyone thought and that was why she could fall in love with Ji Yuan. She was pleasantly surprised when Ji Yuan had won against Gu Bugu.

    But still she could not resist a curse against him: You are dead once you''vepleted this trial.

    Although she was cursing Ji Yuan, she was smiling now.

    She said to her unborn daughter: Your Papa truly deserves to die.

    Yun Chi''s unborn daughter: Huh??? Why Papa deserves to die?

    Yun Chi randomly found an excuse to answer: Because he dares to flirt with my two beautiful prot¨¦g¨¦s right in front of my eyes.

    Yun Chi''s unborn daughter: Then Papa truly deserves to be punished but don''t kill Papa please. I''ve only got one Papa¡­

    Yun Chiughed silently: I am only teasing you¡­

    Yun Chi''s unborn daughter: ???

    Bai Qianfeng was holding her fingers to her small cherry lips as she watched the battle between Ji Yuan and Gu Bugu. And when Ji Yuan had won, she was very much relieved and there were shimmering tears in her golden eyes¡­

    After she had gone through so much ordeal with Ji Yuan, she could not have him to die before her. And she was determined to help him ascended as an immortal.

    When Ji Yuan had told her that Yun Chi was the Death God Mingwang and she was the only maiden to know about this, she was very surprised. Moreover Yun Chi had wanted to take her in as her only prot¨¦g¨¦.

    Moreover, she was probably the only ''animal'' in the form of a nine-tail silver fox that Ji Yuan could keep alive to this day; Ji Yuan truly sucks at keeping any animals alive.

    She quicklyposed herself to ask, "Weird, why is that Gu Bugu just standing there for Ji Yuan to attack him? Is he nuts?"

    In the arena, almost all the cultivators were now following the battle imagery of the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, Ji Yuan and the short old man.

    Ji Yuan''s victory against the Gu Bugu had caused some of the spells of depravity to be lifted and many of the cultivators were no longer interested in the many lusty things that happened between the contestants inside.

    Inside the arena trial, many of the contestants actually did not know that Gu Bugu was dead but they could see that a deadly battle had happened and several powerful profound energies that exceeded the norm of a great saint cultivation realm had been unleashed.

    Therefore, many of the cultivators had decided to stop their schemings and were making for a beeline to the safe area.

    It was because they did not want to die or meet with the monster like Hunter Gu Bugu.

    They knew that there were at least two super cultivators in the arena final that they could not defeat and they were not willing to y with their lives.

    -

    -

    -

    Time passed.

    By now, Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress, the Divine Smiling Maiden and the short old man had long reached the safe area and had founded the yellow portal.

    It was not without any incident but there were no major incidents either.

    They were actually not the first cultivators to arrive and there were already 7 cultivators who meditating inside.

    As soon as Ji Yuan had reached the safe area, he began to meditate and so did the others.

    Over time, they were joined by the other cultivators that had reached the safe area and they too, close their eyes to meditate as they waited for the arena final trial to end.

    Soon the 40 hours were up.

    And Zhi Jiugong was now announcing to everyone, "The third and final trial has now ended. Out of the 358 cultivators, there are 148 cultivators that have survived to reach the safe area. There are 40 other cultivators that have failed the trial because they did not reach the safe area. Out of the 148 cultivators, only 83 cultivators have managed to collect +9 Points and above¡­"

    Then she paused to say serenely with her heavenly voice, "However there can be only 1 winner that can obtain the celestial-step robe and she is Hua Xunzi with a total of +69 Points."

    She had disyed an imagery of an adorable beautiful maiden for all to view the top scorer of this final arena trial.

    Ji Yuan was startled that someone could actually get +69 Points and he began to look around the safe area to check out this top victor, "This 69 happens to be my favorite number as well. How the heck did she gets so many points?! I have only got a miserable +13 Points in the form of an unlucky number 13 and it had almost cost me my life¡­ well at least it isn''t a 4 or a 44. Wait a minute, I did get a +4 Points before Gu Bugu is killed by me..."

    But when he saw her, he was praising her adorable look and beautiful features. "She sure deserves to win..."

    The short old man had heard Ji Yuan and he had patted him, "What are youining about? You are now a rich cultivator with 20 million high grade spirit stones. You should be rejoicing!"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin, "You are right. My first priority is to keep my wealth a top secret from my consorts as my trump card¡­"

    -----------------------------

    3) Ji Yuan is now a rich cultivator with 20 million high grade spirit stones. Major milestone broken.

    4) All the Dragon Faction''s ring leaders are dead except for the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

 Chapter 553 The White Sword Monarch

    When Ji Yuan had exited the arena, he was closely followed by the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress.

    Behind him walked the short old man.

    Almost all the male cultivators were envious of Ji Yuan when they saw him embracing two of the most peerless maidens in Bliss City.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said softly to Ji Yuan while disying a captivating look, "Please take care. Today may be the veryst time that we are seeing each other."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What do you mean?"

    The Lovely Empress lowered her delightful eyes to say woefully as she took the ce of her sister to exin, "Sooner orter, our master will know that we have helped you. The profound imageries of the arena trials will be sent for our master to view. Even if our master did not view it but there are many in the Death and Dragon Faction that will seize this golden opportunity to inform our master about it for some rewards¡­"

    "In fact, we cannot betray our master." Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue melecholy looked at Ji Yuan. "There is no way for us to be together. In fact, we may even be enemies."

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "You don''t have to worry about it. I can help you to exin to the Death God¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a faint but nonchnt smile, "Don''t forget your oath to the Great Beyond Goddess that you will not be his enemy. Just making this oath with your soul sea alone means you will not be able to ovee him in the future anymore and he will be your heart demon."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "Haha¡­ actually I will have a way. Trust me¡­"

    "Sister, let''s us go now." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled faintly to the Lovely Empress. "It will be awkward if we meet the rest of Ji Yuan''s consorts, am I right? They will think that we are harlots."

    Then she took a quiet look at the short old man before she silently said: Farewell father¡­

    "Ji Yuan, farewell." The Smiling Divine Maiden took ast look at Ji Yuan as she put on her most enchanting smiles for him.

    She had wanted him to remember her most beautiful moments.

    The Lovely Empress was also taking onest look at Ji Yuan, "Farewell¡­ free of charge Ji Yuan. I have a very good memory of you. Don''t die on me and please also forget about me."

    Ji Yuan had wanted to catch the two of them to embrace them together but before he knew it, they had hastily slipped away and had disappeared together.

    In his current condition, there was no way for him to catch up with these two astonishing maidens that had once plotted to kill him. "Actually¡­ s!"

    He turned to stare angrily at his old master, "Old man! Why didn''t you help me to stop them from leaving? One of them is your very own daughter!"

    But the short old man just sighed heavily, "In the end, she still decides to go back to serve her evil master."

    Ji Yuan punched his old master, "Old man! You''ve promised me an arranged marriage to your daughter Chu Lixue and now you''re breaking your words!"

    The short old man began to punch and kick Ji Yuan, "What the heck! When did I ever promise you something like this? I mean I am going to betrothe you to my other daughter, not Chu Lixue!"

    "No way old man!" Ji Yuan cursed loudly, "You are so ugly. You won''t have a beautiful daughter. Besides, I must take the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue as my consort!"

    The short old man pped Ji Yuan, "She is your senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister and is thousands of years older than you, you stupid fool! As a peaked great saintess, she won''t be able to give you any descendants too. Moreover she is evil and serves our enemy¡­"

    "Your enemy only!" Ji Yuan kicked back his old master. "Remember that I''ve made an oath not to be the Death God''s enemy?"

    "That is why you are a stupid fool!" The short old man pulled Ji Yuan to him before punching his face. "If I were there, I would surely stop you!"

    "Ji Yuan!"

    There were a chorus of jovial sounds calling for Ji Yuan''s name and Ji Yuan looked up to see that they were Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Dream Mist, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Yang Mi that had arrived.

    To Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Dream Mist, they were not surprised but to the others, they were mostly surprised to see that Ji Yuan was brawling like amon rascal now.

    But when Yang Mi saw the short old man, she was terrified and she had immediately dropped to her knees, "Father, why are you here¡­"

    It was because she had thought that her father had discovered her rtionship with Ji Yuan and was punishing Ji Yuan. And moreover Ji Yuan looked super weak now.

    Everyone was startled when they saw Yang Mi calling the short old man her father.

    Yu Jingjing was startled as she quickly said, "Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing pays my respect to senior¡­"

    The short old man cut her out, "This is just between my daughter and me!"

    As Yang Mi, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were meditating during the 3 days arena event, they did not know exactly what had happened save that Ji Yuan hadpleted the trial.

    The short old man had stopped punching Ji Yuan and he had shed next to Yang Mi immediately as he rebuked her angrily, "Yang Mi! Why are you here in this evil ce? Are you trying to drive me to your grave by trying to follow your oldest sister?!"

    Yang Mi was shocked, "I have an older sister in this ce?"

    All of a sudden the short old man had realized that he had identally revealed a secret...

    Ji Yuan immediately interrupted, "Actually she is only following¡­"

    "Shut up Ji Yuan!" The short old man had suddenly thundered out very loud and he was really furious.

    This caused Yang Mi to wept even more as she bitterly wept, "Father, please don''t scold Ji Yuan or beat him up anymore. He won''t be able to take it¡­"

    "You will being with me!" The short old man shouted furiously, "I will confine you for a hundred years in solitary foring to this ce and then you will ept my arranged marriage for you!"

    Yang Mi began to wept aloud and she was shivering hard, "Father, didn''t I tell you that I won''t ept any arranged marriage? That is why I have joined the Holy Oracle Sect in the first ce. But¡­ your unfilial daughter has already decided to quit the Holy Oracle Sect to be with the one that I''ve met in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "What did you just say?" The short old man was so furious that he had raised his hand high up now. "If you dare to say one more time that you will not ept my arranged marriage for you, I will kill you immediately! Your future husband may have a foul mouth but at least he is around your same age and he is already a sword saint!"

    "No, I''ll refuse to marry him!" Yang Mi dered firmly. "I will rather kill myself than marry someone that I do not love! And please don''t hit Ji Yuan anymore! He is innocent!"

    "Erm," Ji Yuan managed to interrupt finally amidst all the shouting. "Old man. Erm, you don''t mean Maiden Yang Mi is actually your daughter?"

    Yang Mi was suddenly startled, "Old man?!"

    She had remembered that her father had told her that he was going to marry her off to a prot¨¦g¨¦ of his in a faraway ce and this prot¨¦g¨¦ of his would always call him old man instead of prot¨¦g¨¦ master.

    Ji Yuan and Yang Mi both gasped at the same time, "Our arranged marriage?"

    All the maidens standing near were startled, "What arranged marriage? And who is this old man to you?"

    Ling Feiyue was frowning, "I am the head consort, why didn''t I know about this arranged marriage?"

    The short old man was about to hit Yang Mi but he had managed to restraint himself as this wondend forbidded anyone to touch one another unless they were both willing parties, "Naturally it is your arranged marriage! s! Since you are so resilient to this arranged marriage of yours then I shall cancel it. From this point onward, you are no longer my daughter and you can join your sister in this evil ce!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly patted his old master on his right shoulder, "Erm old man, at this rate that your hot temper is going, you are going to have no daughters soon."

    Yang Mi had suddenly stopped her wet tears as she turned flustered since the man in her arranged marriage was actually Ji Yuan, "Father, in that case, your fillial daughter will have no other choice but to ept this arranged marriage of yours!"

    The short old man was stunned as he looked at Yang Mi before he looked at Ji Yuan with an angry growl, "Did you do something to my daughter?!"

    Ji Yuan pretended to say, "You will actually have such a beautiful daughter?"

    No way, he would admit to banging Yang Mi and took away her first time.

    Then he was suddenly staring at his old master with a sudden realization, "Don''t tell me that you are that White Sword Monarch? You are that old freak with 12 grand elders who are also sword saints under you?"

    Yang Mi had once told him that her father was the White Sword Monarch and he also had a saint-step divine sword. Moreover, the White Sword Celestial n was also the most powerful celestial n in the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

    The short old man pulled Ji Yuan to Yang Mi as he said solemnly, "Ji Yuan is my only direct prot¨¦g¨¦ in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Yang Mi was looking with her shocked eyes at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan is a direct protege of my father. He isn''t just a normal protege?! How is it possible?"

    She had thought that Ji Yuan may be a protege of the protege of a certain elder or grand elder from her father''s celestial n.

    Ji Yuan was stammering, "Old man, are you joking with me? The White Sword Monarch is so ancient that he exceeded the life span of several of my patriarchs in the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    "Are you stupid or not?" The short old man chuckled loudly. "They are all me. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly said, "Old man! I am going to kill you now for making a fool out of me! You have better give me a very good exination why you have only taught me your broken sword arts instead of your superior sword arts. Now I know why your older daughter hates you now!"

    Meanwhile Yun Chi was also shocked: Ji Yuan''s old master is actually this old freak?!

    Yun Chi''s shocked look had suddenly attracted Ji Yuan''s attention and he was gasping with a sudden realization, "Yun Chi, it is really you?! Do you know that I''ve been looking everywhere for you?!"

    Ji Yuan had immediately abandoned talking to his old master as he greeted Yun Chi excitingly and he was actually going forward to embrace her.

    "So you have finally realized that I am actually here? Are you sure that you have been looking everywhere from me?" Hummed Yun Chi coldly. "I can only see you enjoying yourself in the arena with 2 peerless maidens..."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly embraced Yun Chi tightly and he was rejoicing with heartfelt emotions, "Do you know that I have only joined the arena to attract your attention? I didn''t find you everywhere so I can only think of the most stupid ways to find you..."

    Yun Chi was feeling awkward now because all of a sudden she saw that the old freak and all the other maidens were all looking curiously in her direction.

    In the end she was sighing softly; instead of ''killing'' Ji Yuan outright for entering the Ind of Ecstacy Ind without her permission, she was now actually touched that Ji Yuan hade to the Ind of Ecstary Ind to help her get rid of the Dragon Faction. For a number of days now, she was experiencing a headache on how best to destroy the Dragon Faction.

    She muttered softly to Ji Yuan, "Why are you silly?"

    Ji Yuan tightened his grip and said, "Actually I''ve wanted to leave this ce the instant that I''ve arrived at this degenerate ce. But the thought that you may be greening me cause me to stay..."

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had kicked Ji Yuan away with a hateful look, "Go die Ji Yuan..."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly before he chuckled, "I was only teasing you..."

    Ling Feiyue giggled to the rest of the maidens, "He sucks in being a romantic cultivator...Ji Yuan doesn''t even know when to stop his bad jokes even if this is the most romantic moments..."

    All the other maidens agreed heartily including the short old man.

    The short old man sighed softly, "I may have trained him wrongly and he likes to be beaten up by the maidens now..."

    Little Princess was suddenly flustered as she interrupted, "Enough already..."

    All of a sudden the short old man was frowning as he stared at the veiled Little Princess, "This enticing clothing... do you happen to know the Third Citadel Mistress of the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Little Princess quickly answered with a flushed look and put her crossed fingers behind her, "Uh who? Oh no..."

 Chapter 554 Death Goddess Yun Chi

    In the secret underground base of Bliss City.

    Anyone without the special seal of the Death God or the Deste Dragon God would not be able to enter the special array that led to this ce.

    The Death God Mingwang was now standing in the Death Hall and in front of her were her three prot¨¦g¨¦s, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress.

    They did not conceal all that had happened inside the arena trial, helping the Death God Mingwang to fill in the missing gaps as sounds within the battle imagery could not be transmitted.

    All 3 of them were looking extremely pale as they wept uncontrobly and they were all bowing with their backs onto the ground.

    Their tearsbined could even form a small puddle of water!

    The Death God Mingwang was cold and he asked with great coldness as he pointed at the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress, "So this is why you had entered the arena as a contestant?! Are you trying to drive me to the grave by disobeying my direct orders never to enter the arena trials? That is the only ce in this entire wondend that can harm the two of you!"

    He stopped for a while to reproach all three of his prot¨¦g¨¦ by looking at them one by one before continuing, "Do you really think the Dragon Faction is without any influence in Bliss City and they will not know that you have entered the arena as contestants? And how many times must I tell you that you can''t even trust some of your own even in the Death Faction. Over time, some of them may even allied with the more powerful Dragon Faction. Are the three of you stronger than Gu Bugu and Gu Sangubined? What if they had led all the powerful cultivators from the Dragon Faction just like this time to screw you up? Have you forgotten that they have the Dragon Subduing Orb to Imbue themselves with the dark powers of the Dark Sol Dragon as well?"

    The Death God Mingwang or Yun Chi was so furious that she had rebuked them almost nonstop, causing tears to swell in the golden eyes of the three maidens in front of her.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was trembling as she answered with her captivating look but she had lost her usual captivating faint smiles, "We are absolutely loyal to our master here. If our master has any orders for us, we will not disobey. The very reason why we had entered the arena is to kill Ji Yuan for our master."

    She had emphasized the reason again even though she had just finished exining the details to her master. And this reason was very weak because she did not kill Ji Yuan when he was at his most vulnerable. Moreover like the Lovely Empress, she had fallen in love with Ji Yuan as well.

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly as she said with great sarcasm, "Then why didn''t you fight with Ji Yuan? I didn''t see you fight with Ji Yuan when I was there watching you. On the other hand, I saw the two of you embracing Ji Yuan."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said with trembling lips, "Our original intention is to kill Ji Yuan by luring him into the arena trial. But things happen and our honey-traps didn''t work as intended¡­"

    "A great deal of things happened right?" The Death God Mingwang interrupted with great amusement. "And you dare toe back?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden slowly said as her tears flowed down but she had to defend Ji Yuan at a risk of being punished, "I know what I did is unpardonable. That is why your loyal servant is here to receive my punishments. Ji Yuan promises us that he won''t make an enemy out of you and that is why we didn''t fight him. We believe in the oath that he has made to the Great Beyond Goddess...."

    The Death God Mingwang ignored the Smiling Divine Maiden as she pointed at the Lovely Empress, "How about you? From what I can see, have you already fallen hopelessly in love with that Ji Yuan?"

    The Lovely Empress sobbed tearfully with great softness and her tears were flowing nonstop, "I¡­ I am also here to receive my punishments. No matter what, I won''t betray my master. The three of us here will never betray the kindness that our master has shown us."

    As for if she had fallen in love with Ji Yuan, she had refused to answer her master because she had really fallen in love with Ji Yuan¡­

    "Do you know what you did wrong?" Asked the Death God Mingwang and he had slowly raised his profound voice.

    The Lovely Empress nodded lightly, "We have also caused the leadership of the Dragon Faction to be destroyed. What we did is unpardonable even though we are only trying to help our master to kill Ji Yuan."

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly, "WRONG! Your biggest mistake is to try to kill Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan is a friend of mine and I refuse to let anyone touch him!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were suddenly looking shocked when they had heard the Death God Mingwang; did they hear it wrongly?

    The Death God Mingwang said with great displeasure, "Now you know why I am so angry with the three of you? How dare you take things into your own hands and try to kill Ji Yuan! If you have killed him, I will also kill you in retaliation!"

    ? The Lovely Empress trembled uncontrobly before she asked timidly, "That day when I had asked master who your enemy was, master has answered that Ji Yuan is your mortal enemy and that master is fated to be defeated by him. That is why¡­ we had tried to kill Ji Yuan for you¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong was also saying with startled eyes, "When master touched your belly, we thought that Ji Yuan was the one that had wounded our master. That was the reason why we were taking this vendetta for master."

    The Death God Mingwang hummed really coldly before he sighed, "You know that I have already summoned all the members of the Dragon Faction to the Dragon Hall?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were slowly nodding and they were all trembling; earlier the Death God Mingwang had already summoned them there to do some ''ountings'' in the form of justice for the deaths of their leadership.

    "Do you know what I will do?" Asked the Death God Mingwang.

    Zhi Jiugong had burst into more tears as she answered tearfully, "Master will hand us over to them to be their y dolls. If this is to be our fate, your prot¨¦g¨¦ Zhi Jiugong is willing to ept it."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were also weeping for they had long heard of the cruel brutality of the Dragon Faction in Bliss City.

    But like Zhi Jiugong, they mncholy wept aloud. "If this is our fate, we will dly ept this."

    The Death God Mingwang grew even angrier when even her prot¨¦g¨¦s had misunderstood her intentions, "They are all dead now, killed by my Avatar Killing Arrays."

    Zhi Jiugong, Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were all shocked; they knew that their master could summon multiple avatars with an immortal-step divine sword but they did not know that their master could kill anyone outside of the arena!

    "My role is originally the executor here so this is not surprising. Or else how do you expect for us to take care of the traitors? Do you think that I am the Death God because it is just my fanciful title?" The Death God Mingwang had quickly answered the question that was in their minds.

    "It is good that the top cultivators of the Dragon Faction were all killed inside the arena trials. I have a headache for the past several days on how to get rid of Gu Bugu, Gu Sangu and the four Dragon Kings. They are not cultivators that my avatars would be able to defeat easily in this wondend. Together, they are truly formidable."

    The Death God Mingwang had suddenly turned solemn, "Today I''ll reveal a deadly secret of mine to you¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Death God Mingwang had taken off ''his'' mask and the face of a peerless person could be seen, lighting the Death Hall with the radiance of the Death God.

    Indeed Zhi Jiugong, Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress had never seen such a beautiful man before and even Ji Yuan could only be ranked number 2.

    Even if they were a maiden, they would also fall in love with such an astonishing peerless demeanor of their master.

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had loosened her long hair and had allowed it to flow down like a river of binding silk before she said to them in her normal feminine voice, "This is my true voice and I am a maiden just like the three of you here. That is why I have never touched you in all these years. Do you now know the reason why? And I havee back to destroy the Dragon Faction."

    Zhi Jiugong, Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were all shocked; their master was actually a maiden?! And she was also such a stunning beauty too? But she hade to destroy the Dragon Faction?

    "You may address me as the Death Goddess Yun Chi in the future and mistress instead of master." Yun Chi casually said to them. "I won''t punish the three of you so get up now¡­"

    She paused briefly as she waited for them to stand before continuing, "And by the way, Ji Yuan is my lord consort and also the father of my unborn child. Therefore, this is the reason why you mustn''t touch him. Do you remember what I have said? This is your reward for your undying devotion toward me but tell no one about my true identity. I will also introduce you to my 4th prot¨¦g¨¦ but she will rank higher than the three of you because she is also a 9th rank immortal goddess here and I have imparted to her my secret dual immortal profound art. Very soon, she will soon have her breakthrough to the 9th rank middle tier immortal positioning and she will be an immortal high goddess."

    Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress did not know whether tough or cry when they had learnt that their ''master'' had always been their ''mistress'' and there were many secret things that they had only known today.

    But they were not saddened at all because this would also mean that the Death Goddess Yun Chi would also not beying her hands on Ji Yuan anymore¡­

    Also, they would also be forgiven for messing up Bliss City and causing the Dragon Faction to lose all its current leadership.

    The Lovely Empress could not resist a lovely chuckle now that her tears had dried, "Mistress, so how do you n to defeat that old freak? Do you need my help?"

    Yun Chi said coolly, "A big fight between us is inevitable. But don''t you help me without my permission. I am really afraid of the mess that you would be making for me now."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly kneeled again and there were tears in her tears, "Mistress! I have a confession to make. Old freak is my father. The reason why he is here is to look for me and to destroy this wondend. I hope mistress understands why I can''t and won''t fight against him."

    By now, Yun Chi had already known that old freak was actually Ji Yuan''s old master but this was the first time that she had heard that old freak was actually searching for his daughter in this wondend. It was no wonder why old freak had kepting back.

    Yun Chi rolled her golden eyes and muttered a soft sigh, "He is really a troublesome old man¡­"

    It was moreplex now because he was also Ji Yuan''s old master too.

    The Lovely Empress chuckled softly, "Since that old freak is Sister Lixue''s father, it is probably quite tricky for us to plot against him first. Why don''t I try to trick Ji Yuan into staying at Bliss City instead? He is really very weak now..."

    Yun Chi had suddenly said unpolitely to the Lovely Empress, "You are now confined for a day. Now go!"

    The Lovely Empress: ...

 Chapter 555 Background Of The Orthodox Sword Sect

    Back at the tavern in Bliss City which Ji Yuan had brought over the entire rooms of the tavern by saying to the tavern keeper, "I am rich now and I am going to pay 10 times the price for you to drive away all your stayers away. Also, setup a barrier array for the tavern for me and I will pay youter. I don''t want to be disturbed."

    Ji Yuan had actually returned to the tavern without Yun Chi.

    It was because Yun Chi had told him that she still got something to do first and asked him to go back to his lodgings first. She would be paying him a visitter.

    As Ji Yuan and his old master still have some business to talk first, they went to a spacious room alone.

    Ji Yuan said curiously, "So old man, your reasons for not teaching me your sword arts have better to be good. So the Major Heavens Sword that you have taught me is really a trash sword art?!"

    The short old man began to sit downfortably as he smiled wryly, "Little rascal, you should sit down as well."

    Ji Yuan frowned but he sat nevertheless.

    The short old man asked quietly, "So you have already known that I am the White Sword Monarch. But do you know my name?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head slowly¡­

    "This is not surprising." The short old manughed. "It has been such a long time that anyone has dared to call me by my name. I am the White Sword Saint Yang Kai the Invincible and also the White Sword Monarch, so named because of the whiteness of my saintly divine sword. I have over 30 consorts and concubines in my harem but I have only two daughters, Chu Lixue and Yang Mi."

    "And the strongest swordy in my sword arsenal is my Yang Invincible Sword Art and the strongest internal profound art of the White Sword Celestial n is the Yang Invincible Internal Profound Art. For these two powerful profound arts, not even my two daughters are allowed to practiced it as they are females. Only strong males are allowed to learn these two profound arts from me."

    Ji Yuan muttered with some sarcasm, "I am also a male but you have never taught me."

    "That is because you are a weak male and not a strong male. Hahahaha." Laughed the short old man.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The short old man patted Ji Yuan hard, "I am only joking with you. Can''t young people take jokes nowadays?"

    Ji Yuan muttered with displeasure, "It isn''t funny."

    The short old man had suddenly grown solemn, "If I did not intend to impart these two profound arts to you then why did I have to arrange a marriage for you 200 years ago? At that time, I had already returned to the Endless Celestial Fraternity as I can''t stay for too long in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. I do like you and that is why I have arranged a marriage for you to my daughter Yang Mi because you are worthy of her. And the battle with Gu Bugu has proven it."

    Ji Yuan was muttering almost incoherent: If I tell you that it is your other daughter Chu Lixue that had given me the tips to defeat Gu Bugu, would you still think that I am worthy? I still sore that you didn''t arrange for Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Sister Chu Lixue to be my consort¡­ Yang Mi is a good maiden but she is already mine¡­ but not her eldest sister the Smiling Divine Maiden¡­

    Back then he was already thinking that the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue seemed to be disying the same simr movements as him. It turned out that she was actually his senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister¡­

    The short old man continued with a heavy sigh, "As you know, I have been searching for my eldest daughter all these years in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind ever since I know that she is in there. But she had refused to go back with me and had even tried to avoid me. Because of her, I had even fought with the Deste Dragon God and the Death God in the past. Therefore, I can only find a way to destroy this wondend on my own because I can''t share any information with anyone... I can''t tell anyone my daughter is in this wondend, am I right? It is a family scandal and a most shameful thing that can happen to the White Sword Celestial n."

    He grew a little angrier, "This is a most evil ce and she has actually served the Death God willingly and has even be his harlot¡­"

    "That is her doll avatar and besides, you so mean to her and that''s why she has willingly joined the Death God." Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted his old master.

    The short old man: ¡­

    "Whose side are you on?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course it is my old man side¡­"

    But he quickly said silently: The side of Yun Chi and Chu Lixue of course.

    The short old man raised his fist, "And so a battle between me and the Death God is inevitable! I dare the Death God to go outside of this wondend to have an honorable duel with me!"

    Ji Yuan thought: And let you hurt my Yun Chi and unborn daughter? No way!

    The short old man sighed, "After some time, I''ve managed to discover that this wondend is somewhat connected to a secret celestial n in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and that is the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    "The Evil Cultivation Pce has many secret hideouts in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and for a number of years I have been secretly trying to find out where the true gods of the Deste Immortal Realm have been hiding but it is without any sess."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "I have stayed in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and I have never even heard of any true gods except for the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    The short old man nodded, "They have chosen the Deste Celestial Fraternity as their base because this part of the Celestial Realm is the poorest in spiritual auras but richest in deste auras. It is the perfect ce for the denizens of the Deste Immortal Realm to grow their strength."

    Ji Yuan had a sudden realization now, "So while you are checking the Deste Celestial Fraternity, you have founded a celestial n?"

    The short old man smiled, "I need a cover for myself so I have picked the poorest region as my base."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "You sound as if the ce that I have stayed in, is such a poor ce."

    Then he growled, "If you are from the richest and most powerful celestial n in the Endless Celestial Fraternity, can''t you make our broken celestial n a bit stronger by donating some of your spirit stones?"

    The short old man had immediately punched Ji Yuan, "What broken n! The name of our great n is the Orthodox Sword Sect! Orthodox! We practiced the Orthodox Sword!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Broken Orthodox Swordy¡­"

    The short old man: ¡­

    "Are you stupid or what?" The short old man kicked Ji Yuan. "The Orthodox Sword n is in the poorest region. Of course, we must be poor or else the Evil Cultivation Pce will suspect us. I had once unknowingly disyed my sword skill and I have to use the cover of a sword saint for our celestial n. Also, the Major Heavens Sword is just a random raw sword manual that I had founded inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so it is perfect to be given to the Orthodox Sword n. Anyway, I do have a more polish version in my White Sword Celestial n, hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan shook his fists, "Darn you, old man! Now you''re telling me you have purposely taught me all these trash swordy!"

    The short old man frowned, "Little rascal, do you think sword manuals are the true essence in being a sword saint? Aren''t you a sword saint now? Didn''t I teach you how to run faster, evade better and use a sword than anyone else? These are the real foundation of a sword practitioner and I have taught them all to you!"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin with suspicion, "This may be a little true¡­"

    Then he was suddenly asking, "Wait a minute! Howe my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister''s evasion seems to be more polished than mine?"

    The short old man appeared to be stunned for a while before heughed weakly, "That is because you have low talent while she has a higher talent."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Old man, you didn''t give her the more polish version ones while giving me a sucky one, didn''t you?"

    The short old manughed awkwardly as he patted Ji Yuan, "I can''t have you or the Orthodox Sword Sect in the top 100 right? After all, I am only trying to stay low in the Deste Celestial Fraternity while I try to find the bases of the Evil Cultivation Pce. I didn''t think that you can push that sucky lightness movement art to the top 10. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Now you have finally admitted it¡­

    He said angrily, "Do you know that I was almost killed by the swiftness movement art of Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue? Luckily, I am a good runner."

    "But they are your consorts now, right?" The short old man pointed out.

    "Haha¡­ that''s right." Ji Yuan chuckled jovially.

    Afterughing for a while, he began to ask. "So did you find out anything in the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    The short old man nodded before sighing, "I have found out that there are many top cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity like the Water Melody Pce and the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    "Once, I had once tried to duel with the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce but even before I can even see his true face, his four elders had beaten me back. But I am not any cultivator who would give up easily so I used a trick to go near to him but even before I could see his face, he had already defeated me!"

    "It was only when ''he'' had said to me and then I realized that the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Flower Pce was actually a young maiden. And she said to me that she had already known why I was in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and I should go back to the Endless Celestial Fraternity. She told me that she would help me to take care of the Evil Cultivation Pce here and that was why I had left that very same day!"

    Ji Yuan began to gulp: Is Jiajia so powerful? Even his old master is not able to see her face?!

    Then he thought that he may be better than his old master because at least he had hold her slender waist before and that he had almost banged her¡­

    The short old man was extremely solemn now, "You must know that no one is supposed to know of my secret identity in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and I am someone who is very good in keeping secrets. But this ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is actually more resourceful than I''ve thought and no one has even known where the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is really at."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "Back then, she had asked you to go back to the Endless Celestial Fraternity and you had listened to her? Are you so spineless?"

    The short old man nodded, "She had warned me that she did not want anyone to know her true face so I had to leave right away or she would imprison me. Between life and death, naturally I have decided to choose life. Also, she had promised me that she would help me to take care of my Orthodox Sword Sect."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He was frowning immediately: You mean she has been plotting against me for 200 years?!

    The short old man continued, "Little rascal. We got more important matters to do now and that is to destroy this ce! Without the top cultivators from the Dragon Faction, this is a golden opportunity to save my daughter Chu Lixue from the Death Faction. Therefore, you must help me!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "What if I say no to you?"

    No way, he was going to fight with Yun Chi¡­

    The short old man immediately stood up, "If you can save my other daughter Chu Lixue from the Death God Mingwang and if you don''t despise her, I will give her to you as your concubine!"

    Ji Yuan had also immediately stood up and wasughing jovially, "Deal, old man! Don''t you ever forget what you have promised me!"

    Then theyughed jovially together to say, "This time, the Death God Mingwang is going to be dead!"

    They did not know that Dream Mist and even Bai Qianfeng could hear them and they both muttered the same words in a different location, "Two Idiots."

 Chapter 556 Chu Lixue & Yang Mi

    Shortly after Ji Yuan had talked to the short old man, he had made a short trip outside and he was soon back to the tavern again. He was saying excitingly, "Less than 2 dayster is the Extreme Bliss Colosseum. This looks really fun."

    When Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Yang Min, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng had heard Ji Yuan, they were discussing excitingly. "This sounds like a great ce to visit. The name itself sounds great too¡­"

    Only Dream Mist was nonchnt about this.

    The reason why most of the maidens were excited about this was because Ji Yuan had strictly forbidden them to go to the streets where all kinds of lewd things were happening in broad daylight and he was displeased at the sight.

    He had emphasized that he was only here to take Yun Chi away or to explore the trials. Once his business here was done, he would quickly leave. In the meantime, they would need to stay in this tavern.

    Ling Feiyue giggled to the maidens in her group, "Last time in the arena we are forced to meditate for 3 days by Yun Chi. This time, never!"

    "Totally agreed!" Yu Jingjing was giggling too. "Say no to meditation!"

    When the short old man had heard that they were nning to go to the Extreme Bliss Colosseum, he panicky shouted aloud, "All of you shall stay here! And none of you shall go to that ce!"

    This outburst caused everyone to turn to the short old man as the majority of the maidens were muttering, "Why not?"

    Even Ji Yuan was frowning, "Why not?"

    The short old man panicky said, "It is not even a trial. Why do you want to go there for?"

    Ji Yuan looked at his old master for a while, "You have been there?"

    The short old man hastily replied, "Of course not! Do I know like the type that will go to that kind of a ce?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "If you have not been to that ce, how do you know what kind of a ce is that?"

    The short old man growled softly, "You must have been corrupted by her!"

    "Who?" Ji Yuan asked curiously. "Chu Lixue?"

    However, the short old man was actually referring to the Little Princess, the enticing maiden in a revealing ck attire that was behind.

    When Yang Mi had told him earlier that her name was Little Princess, he immediately knew that she was none other than the Third Citadel Mistress and Little Princess of the Evil Cultivation Pce. It was because Little Princess was her alias that she had been using!

    Just as the short old man and Ji Yuan were about to break into another argument, Yun Chi had suddenly walked in with a wry smile.

    As usual, she was always wearing an upper half mask that showed only her golden eyes and cherry lips but this could not hide her extraordinary stunning demeanor.

    Today, she was dressed in a robe that showed the naked top side of her beautiful bony shoulders and as she entered into the tavern, she was sping her thin short skirt that was iid with mystic celestium runes.

    Ji Yuan was delighted when he saw Yun Chi and he began to ignore his old master, "Yun Chi, you''re finally here, haha. Let me tell you something interesting. In 2 days, the Extreme Bliss Colosseum will be opened. Let''s go in there to take a look!"

    When Yun Chi heard that Ji Yuan was going to the Extreme Bliss Colosseum, she had immediately said with great conviction, "No! You''re not going to that uninteresting ce."

    She quickly made a resolve to shutdown that ce permanently. She had been too busy cleaning up the Dragon Faction ever since the end of the arena trials and barely one day had passed.

    Ji Yuan blinked with his eyes, "That ce is uninteresting?"

    Yun Chi answered, "There are many beautiful men there though. If you really want to go there to take a look, I really don''t mind at all."

    Ji Yuan was startled immediately.

    Beautiful men?!

    He quickly dered loudly, "We are not going to that uninteresting ce anymore."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "If you''re bored, why don''t you go to the gambling den instead? With your good luck, you probably won''t lose and may even win quite a bit there."

    Ji Yuan began to chuckle as he thought of the spirit stones that he would be earning, "That is a good idea. I happen to be the God of Gamblers too. Haha..."

    Just as Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, he was startled to see that the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress had all walked into the tavern hall and they were exceedingly beautiful especially when they were in a group since they did not veil themselves.

    But individual wise, they were really much more alluring than thest time that Ji Yuan had seen them.

    The astonishing demeanor of the Smiling Divine Maiden and her faint smile, coupled with her captivating golden eyes seemed to be like a mesmerizing torch that immediately attracted the most attention; she always carried a faint but divine smile in her countenance and that was why she was known as the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The Loveliness of the Lovely Empress had almost no equal. While she was not nearly as beautiful as the Smiling Divine Maiden, she had more or lesspensated it with her delightful loveliness that was full of charm as she folded and unfolded hervendar short skirt.

    As for Zhi Jiugong, she was also a most beautiful maiden as well and today she was wearing a long blue dress. She always had a more amicable temperament and as usual she had an elegant demeanor as she carried her divine zither. However, this was only just her quiet appearance. In reality, she was the Ancient Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect and she was extremely formidable, more so than Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    When Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi saw Zhi Jiugong, they quickly lowered their nces respectfully even though Zhi Jiugong had never exined to them that this was the real her and not a wanton doll.

    When Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi saw the real Zhi Jiugong in such a close distance, they were confused. It was because she was radiating a strong pure primeval yin unlike the Zhi Jiugong that they had seen previously. One must know that the profound power of the Holy Oracle Goddess depends on how pure the cultivator''s primeval yin really is.

    Zhi Jiugong actually had a talent from her long years of cultivating the Holy Oracle Goddess profound art and that was, she knew whether if a maiden was chaste or not.

    Also, while she was ranked number 2 in the Death Faction, her internal and external profound strength were actually the best among the 3 sisters.

    Zhi Jiugong took a quick discreet look at the tavern hall and she could see that only Dream Mist was still a chaste maiden.

    As for Yun Chi her mistress, she could not tell because Yun Chi was a half-step divinity and was out of divine sense to read. Also, when Yun Chi had switched to the Death God Mingwang, she also had a profound treasure that could give off a fake reading of her gender. Instead of giving out primeval yin, she had given out a strong primeval yang instead.

    Unknown to Zhi Jiugong, Dream Mist or the Great Beyond Goddess could conceal this information to Zhi Jiugong if she had so desired.

    However, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were instantly wary of this Dream Mist for they had seen her taking down their Profound Heavenly Eyes Array apart and they had all suspected that she was an immortal.

    Regarding the destruction of the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array, they had also made a honest report to Yun Chi.

    Yun Chi was astonished because this was quite hard even for an immortal that was aplished in array.

    When she had secretly told Bai Qianfeng about it, she had also replied that even though she was highly aplished in arrays, this was impossible for her to do.

    Ji Yuan purposely said aloud, "Old man, your eldest daughter is here to see you!"

    The short old man sighed heavily before saying, "You are here..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden lowered her head and she was quiet; she had actuallye to see Ji Yuan¡­

    All of a sudden Yang Mi had stepped forward and with one look, she had identified the Smiling Divine Maiden as her sister for she was the only one with a guilty look.

    "Sister, is that you?" Yang Mi had burst into tears as she ran forward to hug the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled but soon she had wrapped her slender hands around Yang Mi, "I am indeed your sister, Chu Lixue. But I am not Yang Lixue."

    Yang Mi sobbed as she rested herself on her sister, "It doesn''t matter because we are sisters. Do you know that I have no other siblings except for you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked quite startled as she turned to look at the short old man, "Really?"

    Yang Mi nodded melecholy, "Father never tells me about you. I have only just recently known about it¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled faintly as she stroked Yang Mi''s back lightly, "He isn''t a good father¡­"

    The short old man: ¡­

    Although Ji Yuan had wanted to talk to Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden all at once and asked them why they were here, he decided not to disturb this touching moment first.

    That could wait for a little while.

    While these two sisters were smiling and crying in each other''s arms, Ji Yuan was looking discreetly at Yun Chi for an answer.

    Why did she ask her three prot¨¦g¨¦s to be here?

    But Yun Chi was just smiling wryly and silently saying: So Ji Yuan, Qianfeng has told me that you want to kill me. We shall see about this today."

 Chapter 557 Little Princessâ€™ Secret

    After the Smiling Divine Maiden and Yang Mi had acknowledged each other as sisters, Ji Yuan began to ask the three sisters, "Um¡­ why are you here?"

    Ji Yuan had of course taken the opportunity to feast upon both the Smiling Divine Maiden and Yang Mi with both his eyes.

    As usual, he was rubbing his chins while looking at them.

    But this was not lost on the maidens who knew about Ji Yuan''s dirty habits of trying to pretend to ponder but his eyes were actually looking in front.

    Ji Yuan''s old habits indeed died very hard.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gently released Yang Mi with a beautiful faint smile before turning to Ji Yuan to say, "I''ve almost forgotten about it. Actually, we havee to surrender to you. We havee to you at our own personal risk and we will betray the Death God Mingwang."

    When she had said that, everyone was not only startled but was in bewilderment!

    The short old man was the most taken by surprise, "Lixue, you''re willing to betray your master and leave with me finally? If so, I will acknowledge you as my daughter again!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he had heard his old master: Actually, you have already acknowledged her as daughter or else why you keeping back to this dangerous ce every 500 years in secret to look for her¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked at the short old man to nod lightly, "That''s right. We will betray the Death God Mingwang as we have realized the error of our ways."

    The Lovely Empress said to everyone but actually she was just looking at Ji Yuan, "To show our sincerity, we will release everyone that we have control over, including the Great Heroine Ye Jing."

    Ji Yuan was startled and he quickly asked, "The real Ye Jing is with you?"

    Feng Minyue was also startled as she asked, "What real Ye Jing?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "The Ye Jing we saw was actually the fake one, including the one that had entered the arena trial with us¡­"

    The Lovely Empress had a look of envious in her usual delightful countenance before saying, "That''s right. I have used my secret avatar profound arts to clone a fake Ye Jing because she is such an astonishing beautiful maiden. The real Ye Jing isn''t that weak in the arena trials. There are times that I''ve regretted that she isn''t the real Ye Jing or else she can help us to beat off Gu Shagu and Lin Antian. These two are simply courting their deaths if they happen to encounter the real Ye Jing."

    There were tears in Feng Minyue''s eyes now, "Good. My Sister Saintess Ye Jing is safe¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "I have long heard that the Great Heroine Ye Jing is someone that can fight the Devil Goddess to a standstill. One of them is the ultimate good and one of them is the ultimate evil. How is it that you can manage to capture Ye Jing and make an avatar out of her?"

    The Lovely Empress began to curse in secret that he was indeed a big mouth cultivator that always wanted answers. This was not part of the grand script between Yun Chi, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and her.

    But she tried to answer most casually, giving no concrete answer. "We have captured her in her moment of weakness by pure luck."

    She did not want to tell Ji Yuan or the others that they had been following Ye Jing since day 1 that she had arrived in Bliss City and had nned the events at the Extreme Bliss Colosseum just for her. When she was shaken and confused, they had stuck against her when she was unable to use the mysticws of the Bliss City to her advantage. Also, they had released plenty of lusty mists in secret to weaken the golden will of even the great celestials like Ye Jing.

    She actually did not want to harm Ye Jing and that she had wanted to offer her to the Death God to be his prot¨¦g¨¦ so she had Ye Jing to sleep for 500 years until the Death God had arrived.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Tell me more about this. I am curious¡­"

    Yun Chi began to interrupt Ji Yuan, "Defeating the Death God is more important than talking about a maiden, right?"

    Ji Yuan started to mutter weakly, "Right, right¡­"

    The short old man agreed loudly, "We need to kill the Death God!"

    The short old man was now looking in the direction of Yun Chi and he was nodding with approval for her actions. Finally he had found someone that totally agree with him on the matter of killing the Death God Mingwang first.

    Then he said loudly to the Lovely Empress and her two sisters, "But how?! If you want to betray the Death God then won''t he knows about this? How do you betray him?"

    This time Zhi Jiugong spoke, "We may or we may not be able to kill the Death God so easily. As you know he is a true god as well as a half-step divinity. It isn''t that easy to kill someone like him even though thews of our Celestial Realm severely restricted him. However, if we are many, we will still stand a good chance."

    The short old man stroked his long white beard, "I totally agree with you. I may not be able to outfight them but they also won''t dare to risk blowing their covers to chase me. And that is also the reason why they didn''t dare to attack the White Sword Celestial n directly but have used many subtle methods to infiltrate my White Sword Celestial n."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You have spies even in the White Sword Celestial n?"

    The short old manughed unhappily, "Naturally my celestial n and the other celestial ns have long been infiltrated by the Evil Cultivation Pce. They are everywhere! In fact¡­"

    He had suddenly pointed in the direction of the Little Princess, "Due to my acute observations, I have also found out that she is actually from the Evil Cultivation Pce and she is none other than the Third Citadel Mistress of the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    All of a sudden, he saw that Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue were shrugging their shoulders as though they did not care about this.

    Even most of the other maidens like Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Dream Mist, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi from Ji Yuan''s group were disying a nonchnt look.

    And only Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were gasping with shock.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were also surprised as they looked at Little Princess.

    But Little Princess simplyzily moved her enthralling slender body and said enticingly with her mesmerizing golden eyes behind her veil, "Indeed, I am Little Princess and I had also used to be the Third Citadel Mistress of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan quicklyughed, "She isn''t from the Evil Cultivation Pce anymore and she is my future consort."

    The short old man pulled Ji Yuan to punch him furiously, "What do you mean? You are marrying her?! She is evil. Absolutely evil! You are a disgrace to our Orthodox Sword Sect! Orthodox! How the heck are the two of you together?!"

    Ji Yuan and the short old man were probably the only ones that could fight each other inside Bliss City because this was their usual habits and also because they did not use their full strength.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coldly, "She is evil? She is absolutely evil? This is the exact words that you have also told me when you had found me in this ce."

    The short old man: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he repeated his old master''s words, "How the heck are the two of us together?"

    He had suddenly recalled the past. His first time was not with his first love and she was stolen by Jin Yilong from me. Depressed and drunk, he had identally disturbed Little Princess'' peaceful continency and got himself captured.

    After he had seen Little Princess'' memory stones, he knew that it was actually his fault in the first ce. Although Little Princess was also at fault for copting with him forcifully and had almost tortured him to the death before he had escaped her, he no longer hated her now even though he had hated her for 200 years for being his heart demon. Once his heart demon was removed, Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm had actually increased.

    But he quickly turned to the short old man, "Although our meeting isn''t smooth at the start but after 200 years, we are finally together again. Isn''t this good?"

    The short old man roared angrily, "Let me repeat myself. She is from the EVIL CULTIVATION PALACE and is our enemy! Just like that Death God that we are going to deal with today. Do you understand me?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; among his consorts, he also has Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue, Deste Immortal Bai Qianfeng and the half-step Divinity Yun Chi¡­

    So he said casually, "Does it matter? I have said already, she isn''t from the Evil Cultivation Pce anymore."

    The short old man angrily pulled Ji Yuan to him, "Once a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Evil Cultivation Pce, always a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Evil Cultivation Pce. They are always linked again. They can''t quit the Evil Cultivation Pce! This is one of their secret rules. Goodness know how many prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce there are in this Bliss City!"

    "Actually, several but not many." This time Little Princess had suddenly spoken, "For example, that Hua Xunzi that has just won the final arena trial."

    Ji Yuan was actually startled, "How do you know about it?"

    It was because he had never seen the Little Princess talking to anyone.

    Little Princess casually said, "There are symbols of the different fraternities that only a Citadel Lord of the Evil Cultivation Pce can recognize here. Moreover, I saw her fight in the arena. I didn''t close my eyes."

    Yun Chi was startled, "You didn''t close your eyes to meditate?"

    Little Princess simply said nonchntly, "There are worse things that I have seen in my life. This is just trivial. Don''t worry, I won''t be affected. My heart is stronger than you think."

    Then she said casually with her enticing slow voice, "This old man is right. In the Evil Cultivation Pce, we are always mark one way or another and we can''t really leave the Evil Cultivation Pce. As for me, they told me that I am born with the Ultimate Evil Veins and I am destined to be evil."

    This time round, it was Yun Chi who was startled as she stared at the Little Princess, "You have the Ultimate Evil Veins?!"

 Chapter 558 The Plan Of Killing The Death God

    Yun Chi was startled when she had heard the words that were muttered by Little Princess; it was because the Ultimate Evil Veins was a bloodline ability that could only be passed on and not cultivated. And this Ultimate Evil Veins had belonged to none other than the Great Demon God!

    This was supposed to be Little Princess'' ultimate secret but today she had revealed it.

    Maybe it was because she did not care anymore.

    Yun Chi had remembered that one of her secret missions was to bring back the Little Princess to the Evil Cultivation Pce and she must be alive.

    Naturally she did not put it to her heart or care for this mission. But now, she had finally understood why the Great Demon God had wanted the Little Princess.

    That was because the Little Princess was his daughter in secret!

    Ji Yuan did not know anything about whatever Ultimate Evil Veins thing. But no one is allowed to hurt his Little Princess so he said to the short old man, "Let''s talk about thister. Aren''t we supposed to talk about why these three sisters are here today?"

    With reluctant expression, the short old man had slowly released Ji Yuan.

    When Zhi Jiugong saw that the tensions in the air had be lessened, she continued with her heavenly voice. "We havee at our own personal risk while the Death God is in meditation. There is a secret array deep underground inside the depths of Bliss City. You can only go there if someone were to give you the proper permission. If you want to destroy the Death God, first you must destroy this secret immortal array first."

    The short old man asked curiously, "What is so special about this special immortal array?"

    Zhi Jiugong answered, "This special immortal array binds all of us to Bliss City and creates the many trials of Bliss City. So, if you want to make Bliss City a safe ce again for the cultivators, you must destroy this special immortal array. However, this special immortal array is actually created by the Great Demon God and it is not easy to be destroyed. Therefore, we need your help to destroy this special immortal array."

    The short old man growled, "We definitely needs to destroy this special immortal array then. But how does doing this help us with killing the Death God?"

    This time, the Smiling Divine Maiden smiled. "Without this special immortal array in ce, all the profound treasures from the dead cultivators will naturally go back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and not back to Bliss City where the Death God will receive it. This is just the first step to weaken the Death God and the other 2 true gods¡­"

    She paused briefly as she looked at Yun Chi, "The second step is more psychological. When this special immortal array is destroyed, the Death God will probably be very angry and he knows that the Great Demon God will surely punish him for this secret immortal array is linked to the soul sea of the Great Demon God. In this way, the Death God will be angry and helpless against us while in Bliss City. Note that this mysticw is seperated from the co-existent mysticws of this ce. We will not be touching this array."

    "The third step will be to provoke the Death God into fighting you outside of Bliss City where we are many. Isn''t that what you want? To have an honorable fight with the Death God Mingwang?"

    The short old man was pping his hands immediately as heughed aloud. "Leave the third step to me! I will surely kill the Death God!"

    Ji Yuan was curious, "Old man. I know that you are strong but can you kill the Death God Mingwang? The Death God will probably be as strong as that ''Immortal'' Gu Bugu, you know, even though he may be restricted here."

    The short old manughed aloud, "But outside of here, I am totally confident of killing the Death God."

    "Why so?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    "That is because I have this," the short old manughed aloud as he had taken out 5 golden talismans to show to Ji Yuan and to the rest.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes for a while before he said weakly, "That is cheating, you know."

    He was not the only ones who were staring at the 5 golden talismans that the short old man had.

    The short old manughed, "This isn''t cheating butbat tactics. I cane back again and again to haunt the Death God and he would not be able to escape from my sword."

    Ji Yuan was forced to admit, "Well, this looks like a great idea. So you don''t need my help?"

    The short old man frowned immediately, "You are not going to idle. Of course, you have to help me. All of us have to join hands to fight the Death God or else why are you all saints and sacred saints in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Of course you can say that. You have 5 golden talismans to save your life."

    The short old man chuckled, "As long as we can kill the Death God, sacrifices are to be expected. I shall remember all of your names and your glorifying deaths. Also you will have a ce in the celestial annuals."

    Everyone else: ¡­

    "That is a great n actually," Yun Chi was smiling. "I feel that this n will surely seed."

    The short old man was also smiling at Yun Chi and he had a high appraisal of this astonishing beautiful maiden, "Maiden Yun Chi. You are indeed a great heroine of the times and worthy of having a foresight. Ji Yuan really has a lot to learn from you as his world view is too myopic."

    Ji Yuan growled immediately, "My world view will be myopic?!"

    The short old man growled angrily, "You have mixed with the badpany while I was not around with you. I can ept you being with the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue since she doesn''t have a bad reputation but for you to get entangle with the Evil Cultivation Pce, never!"

    Ji Yuan suddenly asked him, "What if I want to be with the Smiling Divine Maiden and she has since betrayed the Death God? Will you oppose me or is she evil?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled all of a sudden and she flustered: He wants to be with me?

    The short old man angrily said, "This is a different thing. Don''t twist the facts!"

    Yun Chi had chuckled suddenly, interrupting them with her soul snatchingughter. "Let''s go and destroy that secret immortal array first instead of some meaningless quarrel. I am actually quite eager to see how the White Sword Monarch is going to kill the Death God."

    The short old man then began tough loudly as he was being praised up high to the heavens by Yun Chi, "I like you your style, Maiden Yun Chi. Hahahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi was alsoughing softly: Old freak, do you know that I have 300 golden talismans from all the dead cultivators in Bliss City? Let''s see who has thestugh."

    While the short old man and Yun Chi were bothughing away, Dream Mist was heaving a soft sigh.

    She turned to look at Ji Yuan and there was some reluctant in her expressive golden misty eyes. She seemed to have a strong premonition and said silently, "Farewell Ji Yuan and Xiang Li¡­"

 Chapter 559 The Secret Immortal Array (1)

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress had indeed taken Ji Yuan and his group to a distant mountain that was in the east, far from Bliss City.

    When they had said that it was an underground city below Bliss City, it was not exactly under Bliss City.

    It actually took them 2 hours to get there even when they were in almost full throttle and it was approximately 200 miles away.

    Along the way, the Lovely Empress was constantly striking a conversation with Ji Yuan and it was obvious to Ling Feiyue and the rest of the maidens in Ji Yuan''s group that the Lovely Empress was interested in Ji Yuan.

    And Ji Yuan did not shy away from the Lovely Empress either and he was constantlyughing along with her.

    During the time in the arena trials, they had already grown veryfortable with each other.

    Zhi Jiugong on the other hand had a mixed reaction; it was because she had missed out the chance to get to know Ji Yuan better and that she still owed him an unfulfilled wish.

    And she could also see the changes in the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress as well.

    Actually, she had not been expecting the Smiling Divine Maiden to have a change of heart; it was because the Smiling Divine Maiden was known as the icy smiling maiden, her icy heart was too hard to crack and it was not possible for her to change her heart to love someone.

    Indeed the Smiling Divine Maiden had not and she had in fact told Ji Yuan that if destiny wills it then they would be together in the next life. Her loyalty to the Death God was absolute and that was why she had to return to him.

    However when she hadter learnt that the Death God was actually a maiden, she was stunned and this caused her to think of her many affections that she had for Ji Yuan; they don''t have to be together in the next life after all.

    As for the Lovely Empress, she had truly fallen in love with Ji Yuan and she was not afraid to admit it. However love and loyalty were two different matters. Therefore she had chosen to go back to the Death Faction to ept her punishments. If Ji Yuan truly loves her, then chaste or not chaste, he would still want her, right?

    In the Celestial Realm, there were many widows due to the high mortality of the cultivation world. So remarrying was never a taboo.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gently said to all, "We have arrived."

    They had arrived between some mountains with a crystal clear pool among the groves.

    As soon as the Smiling Divine Maiden had said that, she began to reveal a secret profound treasure and immediately a golden portal was seen in front of them.

    "Let''s go in," she said simply.

    Ji Yuan immediately said, "Wait a minute. We should examine this area for any traps first or maybe there are cultivators that are around¡­"

    The short old man immediately kicked Ji Yuan inside the golden portal, "I trust my daughter, you idiot!"

    Almost all the maidens were giggling because they all knew that Ji Yuan was fond of doing his sometimes meaningless exploration. In the early levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, a super cautious Ji Yuan had cause them a lot of dys.

    Inside the golden area was a huge passage and the Smiling Divine Maiden soon led them to portals after portals within as she said, "Without me to guide you, you will surely be lost."

    Soon they hade to a sword pavilion in the middle of a superrge cavern. All around this sword pavilion were thousands of swords, and many were the famous swords of the dead cultivators over thousands of years.

    Ji Yuan began to blink his golden eyes for he had never seen so many divine swords in his entire life. "So this is the secret immortal array that we will be destroying?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded, "Breaking this secret immortal array will stop any powers from activating the secret trials of Bliss City. However as this ce contains extremely powerful killing profound energies, only the strongest cultivator could actually move to that sword pavilion over there..."

    Ji Yuanughed as he wanted to be as awesome as possible in front of the Smiling Divine Maiden, "I don''t believe..."

    And he had immediately flew toward the sword pavilion. But barely 1/10 of the way into the array, he was suddenly pushed back with a tremendous force and dozens of profound sword energies had pierced into his golden body!

    Ji Yuan immediately coughed out blood and he was startled, "What a powerful sword array!"

    Bai Qianfeng had caught hold of Ji Yuan as she smiled coolly, "My lord, are you alright? This is a most powerful sword array and is also an immortal one. Naturally it is hard for you to go to the center. Even if you have used your spirit animus, it will still be pointless because your spirit animus is not a defense spirit animus and is a special type that can enhance you. However, it still cannot withstand the brutality of this immortal sword array."

    After Bai Qianfeng had exined it, Ji Yuan was now smiling awkwardly. "So we can do nothing against this secret immortal array?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Not really."

    Then she pointed at Yun Chi and the short old man, "Including me, the two of them are strong enough."

    Then she was also pointing at Dream Mist, "Or maybe her as well."

    Bai Qianfeng was giggling lovingly at Ji Yuan as sheughed charmingly to Ji Yuan, "My lord, are you a noob? This is an array and a most powerful array. You can''t just barge into it just like this. You have to trend very carefully as the steps will change in the next blink of an eye. Therefore, to break this array, either you must be a knowledgeable array master or you are strong enough to neutralize the sword profound energies that areing to your way."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he immediately pointed at the short old man, "I am noob because I happen to have a noob old master who never teaches me anything except for sword arts."

    The short old man immediately frowned, "Don''t use yourziness as an excuse!"

    Ji Yuan immediately protested, "As though you can afford the spirit stones to teach me the array cultivations?"

    Meanwhile Ling Feiyue was sighing softly, "We are all golden saints here and we can''t do a thing to this secret immortal array? I don''t believe too¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had disyed her sword spirit and raised her sword as she disyed her thousands swords profound sword art into the center of the sword pavilion

    But as soon as her sword profound art had entered into the array, the sword energies from the thousands of swords in this sword immortal array were all attacking Ling Feiyue''s sword profound art and had dissipated it in the next instant.

    Ling Feiyue was startled for this was her most powerful sword profound art and it was destroyed as soon as she had disyed it. "This¡­"

    Yun Chi said nonchntly, "Stop wasting your profound strength. Let me go inside first."

    The short old man was staring at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng as he thought: These two maidens are actually as strong as me here?!

    Yun Chi had suddenly walked into this secret immortal array and she was walking casually without triggering any of the thousands of swords.

    And she was the first to have reached the sword pavilion.

    Next was Bai Qianfeng. Although she was slowly, she too was able to walk across the secret immortal array and she had also reached the sword pavilion.

    The short old man was stunned that these two female cultivators were so highly aplished in their array cultivation and their divine senses.

    By now, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong had already known that Bai Qianfeng was Yun Chi''s fourth prot¨¦g¨¦ and she was to be their leading prot¨¦g¨¦. When they saw her array skills, they were forced to admit that she was indeed superior to anyone of them.

    The short old man was sighing softly now because it had taken both Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng just a few blinks of an eye to reach the sword pavilion. For him to reach the sword pavilion was not merely in a few blinks of an eye but a burning incense time.

    He was feeling great ashamed of himself!

    But still he continued onward.

    While in the secret immortal array, he had made 12 mistakes but he had managed to deflect all the profound attacks; the closer to the sword pavilion, the more powerful the profound sword energies were!

    Finally the short old man had taken 10 times the time to reach the sword pavilion and he was sweating breathlessly!

    But there was an achievement in his old golden eyes as he thought: This is why I am the White Sword Monarch. The rest of you are just my juniors¡­

    All of a sudden the Smiling Divine Maiden had shed forward and dozens, then hundreds and then thousands of profound sword energies were now shing like bombardment on her!

    This scared the hell out of everyone, including Ji Yuan!

    But the Smiling Divine Maiden merely disyed a faint smile as she stepped into the safe area of the sword pavilion.

    The evasion that she had just disyed was just too insane and it was as though she could know when she would be attacked.

    The short old man was stammering weakly as he looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden, "This¡­ this¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden returned a haughty look, "This isn''t so hard after all."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself, "Old man, I am now 100% sure that she isn''t your daughter¡­"

    The short old man was naturally unable to hear Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was now trying to wink at Bai Qianfeng and he was pointing at himself to look awesome in front of the Smiling Divine Maiden and the rest: Qianfeng, help me to ovee this immortal array...

    Although Bai Qianfeng saw the secret hint that Ji Yuan was disying, she merely shook her head lightly: My lord, I can''t. This is too dangerous and can cost you your life. So stay where you are...

 Chapter 560 The Secret Immortal Array (2)

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now saying to Bai Qianfeng, the short old man and Yun Chi. "We need to use all our profound strength to break this secret immortal array. I wish that I can help but I am not strong enough. Therefore, I hope that together, we will be able to break this secret immortal array."

    Yun Chi nodded but this was just a ploy of hers and this was exactly what she had told the Smiling Divine Maiden to say.

    She naturally knew how powerful this secret immortal array was and when it was destroyed, it may not really be a good thing too¡­

    But she had to destroy this array and to prevent the Great Demon God from obtaining the rich profound resources of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and to turn his emperor-step divine sword into a deity-step divine sword.

    As she was thinking about this, all of a sudden Ji Yuan was charging toward to the sword pavilion and he was disying the same evasion as the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    He had disyed his spirit animus and he had used his divine sword to parry those sword energies that he could not evade and with a loud chuckle, he had reached the sword pavilion after thousands of sword energies had bombarded him.

    A breathless Ji Yuan wasughing weakly, "I am actually not bad, right?"

    His actions stunned Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man.

    Yun Chi weakly said, "Don''t do that again. This is suicide. I can''t believe that you are able to be here in the first ce without any profound aura to protect you."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders as he looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden, "If my senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister can do it, so can I. Haha¡­"

    The short old man muttered weakly, "Your source of strength must havee from trying to impress someone¡­"

    The rest of the maidens that were outside the secret immortal array were all shocked at how reckless Ji Yuan was and it was only when they saw that he had reached the other side that they were all heaving as soft sigh of relief for him¡­

    Some like Ling Feiyue, Yu Jingjing and Lovely Empress were already cursing Ji Yuan softly.

    Ji Yuan had heard their soft cursing but he knew that was because they were concerned about him. But he wanted to try this because the evasion skill of the Smiling Divine Maiden fascinated him and he was already learning how she managed to perform her evasion. The main reason why he was able to pick up so fast was because they had shared the same simr evasion skill and also because he had wanted to impress her as well.

    "Let''s get going," Ji Yuanughed.

    Yun Chi nodded slowly, "We need to pour in all our profound energies to destroy this sword pavilion. This sword pavilion is enveloped by a powerful profound force as you can see and we need to break it."

    She had identally taken the initiative to talk about this array. Technically, she was not supposed to be the person that was in the know of this information first unless she was given an advance hindsight.

    Luckily for her, the short old man did not notice it and he was focusing on examining the sword pavilion with his divine sense.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden however noticed it and she quickly disyed an alluring smile, "Maiden Yun Chi is right. This is indeed the right conclusion."

    Ji Yuan nodded and he was already examining the sword pavilion with his divine sense.

    This sword pavilion was like a giant gxy and there were thousands of stars in it and they were supposed to muster all their profound energies to destroy the stars within.

    For Ji Yuan, as soon as he had destroyed a star, the next one would pop up immediately because he had been channeling at the wrong ces or that his profound strength was too weak to prate through the star formation of this sword pavilion.

    He ended up doing almost nothing here¡­

    After some time Yun Chi said, "The firstyer has been removed. Now for the secondyer. If we can''t remove the secondyer in time to go to the third and finalyer, then the firstyer will be restored."

    The one who was doing the most work were actually Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and the short old man.

    As for Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden, they were all wasting their profound energies and they were just staring nkly at each other¡­

    The old man was grumbling to Ji Yuan as he had started to sweat profusely, "I don''t know why you are here. You might as well stay behind."

    Ji Yuan started to chuckle weakly, "I am actually here to witness your awesome moment. So, don''t fail me. Haha¡­"

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    After 3 more hours, Yun Chi was saying to their group. "It is no good. The secondyer is now closing. We just don''t have the profound power to reach the thirdyer. Even if we can reach theyer 3, we just don''t have enough profound strength to continue. In short, we can''t break this immortal array. It is much tougher than I have thought."

    When Yun Chi was talking, everyone was naturally listening now.

    It was because they could see that she was responsible for unblocking more than 50% of the star systems in the sword pavilion and this was already a great feat.

    Bai Qianfeng was second and she was responsible for unravelling 30% of the star systems in the sword pavilion.

    As for the short old man, he was only able to aplish only 15% of the star systems.

    As for the other 5%, Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden were responsible for it. And most of the time, it was because they just got lucky.

    But now theyer 2 star systems were now closing and restoring again.

    All of a sudden they were all astonished when Dream Mist was in their midst; no one had seen hering.

    Even for the maidens at the back like Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Yu Jingjing, Yang Min, Zhi Jiugong and Lovely Empress, they did not see her making a move to the sword pavilion and suddenly she was there.

    It was because Dream Mist had entered Ji Yuan''s soul sea and had exited again.

    Dream Mist had turned to look at Ji Yuan with a soft sigh, "I truly enjoy this journey with you. Even though it is a short journey but it is enough for me. Please take care of Xiang Li for me¡­"

 Chapter 561 The Secret Immortal Array (3)

    The enticing soft voice of Dream Mist was now resounding in Ji Yuan, "I truly enjoy this journey with you. Even though it is a short journey but it is enough for me. Please take care of Xiang Li for me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Huh? You''re not going to force me to¡­"

    He could not tell anyone why Dream Mist was here but silently he was asking her: Huh? You''re not going to force me to make a wish anymore?

    Xiang Li was surprised: This mysterious but beautiful statuesque maiden is going to leave now? Why? My Big Brother Ji Yuan is the best!

    Anyang was also saying: My lord, your ex-girlfriend is going to leave. Aren''t you going to stop her from leaving?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: Girlfriend. They are back together now.

    Even Ji Yuan was confused because he knew that behind her veil, she had the most sinful innocent face that he had ever seen before and she was like a primeval beauty that had never seen the taint of the corruption of the world.

    She was what he would call an extreme beauty.

    And this enticing extreme beauty was now going to say farewell to him?

    But he did not even have a chance to flirt or to bang her yet¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess had originally appeared before Ji Yuan in his dream to force him to undergo self-purification from the effects of the masculine profound pills that he had been taking. (See Chapter 427) and to force him to be a romantic cultivator as this was his destiny.

    But this Ji Yuan was too rude and too fouled with mouth; he had actually said he had wanted to pop her cherries and he had even looked at her forbidden face. This caused her to be enraged with him.

    The very reason why she was in the Celestial Realm was because Yun Chi''s divine child had awakened her through Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea. Therefore, she got a little curious about this Ji Yuan. (See Chapter 408).

    The Great Beyond Goddess said softly as she looked at Ji Yuan with her enticing misty golden eyes, "You are indeed an interesting man. I have not wasted my time here. Consider your past transgression to be forgiven¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What transgression?"

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man were all staring with great perplexations: what is she saying?

    The Great Beyond Goddess turned to look at Yun Chi with a smile, "Your little precious baby girl has a great destiny ahead of her and that is why she can draw me to this realm¡­"

    Yun Chi: ???

    All of a sudden, everyone could see that a powerful profound animus seemed to be enveloping around Dream Mist and her clothing was fluttering upward but never messy.

    To the astonishment of everyone, bright stars were now appearing in her clothing and the profound aura of her clothing revealed that it was actually a deity-step profound treasure!

    Ji Yuan, Bai Qianfeng and everyone else including Yun Chi were suddenly all on their knees because a powerful pressure had suddenly descended upon everyone!

    To the horror of Yun Chi and everyone else, the immortal positioning of this Dream Mist had actually exceeded the 9th immortal positioning and to the forbidden 10th immortal positioning!

    "True Divinity!" Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were horrified; this Dream Mist was actually a True Divinity and yet they had despised her being in their group because she was always so cold and forbidden, not even bothering to help.

    Yun Chi was suddenly staring at Dream Mist as she stammered with fear, "No, this isn''t the 10th immortal positioning but the 11th immortal positioning. She is the Beyond Divinity Goddess¡­"

    Xiang Li was thinking innocently: Big Brother''s girlfriend is the Great Beyond Goddess? It is no wonder he has made so many oaths to her¡­

    Bai Qianfeng was shocked too but she could not move and all her profound strength was being used to hold onto the ground, "Beyond Divinity? What kind of a cultivation realm is that?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess now spoke, "I am the great goddess of all the great goddess. What is a mere 11th immortal positioning to me?"

    Yun Chi was stunned as the great pressure continued to increase. Except for her, everyone was now t on the ground. "12th immortal positioning?! This is impossible¡­"

    They could not even talk or think because the descending great pressure was simply too great and they felt like they were being crushed by a heavy weight.

    And poor Ji Yuan was feeling like someone was sucking his soul sea out of him too¡­

    So naturally Ji Yuan''s mind was a total nk now¡­

    Beyond the 9th immortal positioning, every half-step increase in the cultivation realm was extremely tedious.

    Yun Chi was a peaked 9th realm immortal and she had reached the peak of the peak and was a half-step divinity now. But she still could not find a way to be a true 10th realm Divinity and had to be struck in the realm above the peaked 9th immortal positioning.

    That was actually powerful enough.

    Yun Chi muttered weakly, "I am so blind¡­ you must be the Great Beyond Goddess¡­ I have once dreamed of surpassing the Great Beyond Goddess but this... is but a joke¡­ it is no wonder, there is a saying that anyone that looked in the face of the Great Beyond Goddess must die¡­ and that is the reason you are always veiled¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled: Oh crap! I''ve seen her face and my adventures end here today¡­

    All the maidens that heard Yun Chi were also scared now because when the Great Beyond Goddess had lost her memories, she had removed her veil for them to see. (See Chapter 443)

    The Great Beyond Goddess put her hands to her back as she looked at the sword pavilion, "The past doesn''t matter anymore. All your transgressions are forgiven and I believe that I don''t have to repeat myself."

    Then she said to the sword pavilion, "You can destroy yourself right now."

    All of a sudden, the sword pavilion was dissipating and the entire secret immortal array was shattering in front of everyone!

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were stunned; this speed of destroying an immortal array was simply too fast and she had merelymanded it¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly waved her hands and three divine swords had suddenly shed in front of her.

    Yun Chi naturally recognized that one of the divine swords was hers¡­

    "These three divine swords are emperor-step divine sword," The Great Beyond Goddess smiled nonchntly.

    All of a sudden two of the divine swords werepletely ripped off to pieces in front of her and not even its soul artefact was left.

    Only Yun Chi''s emperor-step divine sword that was used for this secret immortal array was now left.

    At the start Yun Chi had already discreetly mentioned that destroying this secret immortal array may not be a good thing because once this secret immortal array was destroyed, all 3 of the emperor-step divine swords would fly back to their respective owners which were the other two true gods of the Deste Divine Realm.

    The Great Beyond Goddess simply said, "You can keep this."

    Then she turned to Ji Yuan to smile, "Today, this Queen is going to return to my divine realm. If you can''t be a romantic cultivator or you will let Xiang Li down, I won''t forgive you!"

    With that she had dissipated and the great pressure that was on everyone had suddenly disappeared.

    When she was gone, everyone was looking at Ji Yuan with a strange look¡­

    But Ji Yuan was muttering weakly to himself as hey t on the ground, "My Queen has just taken all my spiritual force¡­ in my¡­ inner spiritual seas¡­ this King here¡­ is not going to let you off so easily¡­"

 Chapter 562 Ji Yuan, Did You Or Did You Not?

    Back at the tavern in Bliss City.

    Ji Yuan and his group had returned to the tavern that he rented while Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden had to depart to attend some matters.

    Before they had left, Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all giving Ji Yuan a weird look...

    Ji Yuan was now alone in the tavern room and he appeared to be a little lost.

    It seemed like a little piece of his soul had left his soul sea.

    He knew that Dream Mist had been using his spiritual force in his inner spiritual sea or soul sea. And he was most afraid of her doing so because this would sometimes result in the most unexpected of all situations.

    He began to sigh deeply when he first remembered her from his dream till how she scored 33 333 points at the ck cliff in the Gods'' Monument City. He also remembered trying to flirt with her afterwards.

    And then the short time that they had in Bliss City.

    When the Great Beyond Goddess had vanished, she had discreetly told Ji Yuan in his soul sea. "I have always existed in your soul sea. I can always see your interactions with Xiang Li and Anyang. In your Celestial Realm, I have restricted myself to the weak 10th Immortal Positioning but this time I am going to use my full profound strength and that''s why I can''t stay in your realm anymore. Farewell¡­"

    That was the veryst of her enticing voice that he had heard.

    All this while she had been fighting along with him and yet he did not know¡­

    He had actually known that she was not going to kill him and that was why he had dared to flirt with her. It was because if she really wants to kill him in the past, there were just too many chances to do so and moreover her motivations were very clear from the start; it was to get him to make a wish from Xiang Li and to make him into a worthy romantic cultivator.

    But he had never expected that she would be the Great Beyond Goddess herself.

    All of a sudden there was a knock and Ling Feiyue hade in with an alluring smile.

    She was carrying a bowl of tonics and she was smiling, "My lord Ji Yuan, how are you feeling now?"

    When Ji Yuan saw that it was Ling Feiyue, he was smiling immediately. It was because Ling Feiyue was extremely breathtaking in her quiet demeanor although she was always rebuking him but she was just too soft with her voice so she sounds more like music in his ears. "Erm, I am fine. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she took out a rare 4th rank profound pill, "This is for my lord to help you to regain your spiritual force. Do you like it?"

    Ji Yuan readily epted it as his mood improved, "My Feiyue is indeed the best consort. Thank you!"

    "My lord, so did you bang Dream Mist?" Ling Feiyue giggled softly as she cuddled to him. She was too shy to say the word copte.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No?"

    Ling Feiyue continued to cuddle to him, "Really? Why are you shy?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am not."

    "Really?" Ling Feiyue looked a little disappointed.

    Before long she had left the room.

    But as soon as she had left, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had entered at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was also surprised to see them but he was d to see these two beautiful maidens in his room. So he chuckled, "Isn''t this my Jingjing and Yang Mi?"

    The two of them immediately chuckled in chorus as they began to coyly cuddle him.

    Yu Jingjing whispered shyly, "As our lordmands us, we didn''t wear any undies. So we wonder if our lord have the mood?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm, not now. I am too weak at the moment¡­"

    Yang Mi whispered shyly in Ji Yuan''s ears, "We are just curious. Did our lord also did not spare Dream Mist?"

    "Spare what?" Ji Yuan began to frown slowly.

    Yu Jingjing chuckled softly, "You surely know what we are talking about. You didn''t even spare the two of us. How would you spare Dream Mist?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes, "Actually I did spare her."

    Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi: ¡­

    After failing to seduce Ji Yuan with their charms to coerce an answer from him, the two maidens began to leave with regrets in their heart¡­

    But barely had they left, a most enchanting maiden with long silver hair, extremely peerless in her demeanor had walked into the room and she was Bai Qianfeng.

    She was smiling and she had immediately sat down next to Ji Yuan, "My lord, are you well?"

    Ji Yuan looked at her with a weak smile, "Erm, I think you want to ask me something else right?"

    ? Bai Qianfengughed silently, "Actually I am also asking for Sister Yun Chi as well. So did you bang Dream Mist or not?"

    She was very direct.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly in return, "What if I did and what if I did not?"

    Bai Qianfengughed coyly, "So it is yes or no?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Actually it is a no."

    Bai Qianfeng refused to believed him, "She is the Great Beyond Goddess. Surely not!"

    Ji Yuan defended himself, "Actually I am not as lecherous as you think."

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    "Hmph! You just refuse to tell your Qianfeng!" And she had stormed off.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly, Little Princess and Feng Minyue had entered the room at the same time.

    Little Princess was smiling as she winked mesmerizing at Ji Yuan, "My lord, Sister Feng Minyue and I just have a little bet with each other. So we want you to be our judge."

    Feng Minyue looked a little ufortable but she nodded lightly nevertheless, "It is nothing much actually."

    Little Princess giggled seductively as she began to cuddle next to Ji Yuan, "Aren''t you curious about my bet with Sister Feng Minyue?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he smiled weakly, "Howe I didn''t know that the two of you are this close all of a sudden?"

    Ji Yuan knew that Feng Minyue was actually closer to Ling Feiyue and Yu Jingjing.

    Little Princess giggled yfully, "I''m betting with Sister Feng Minyue if my lord here has actually made Dream Mist into your woman yet?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "So we want our lord to tell us the answer." Little Princess giggled, "I''m sure that in front of Sister Feng Minyue here, my lord would not lie to us, right?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Actually Maiden Dream Mist isn''t my woman."

    Little Princess refused to believe him, "Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am very sure."

    "Hmph! Come Sister Minyue!" Little Princess had pulled Feng Minyue away. "He is just refusing to tell us!"

    Ji Yuan almost banged his head.

    What is wrong with all these maidens today?

    I am speaking the in truth but none of them actually believe me?

    Must I summon Xiang Li and Anyang to be my witness?

    He began to get off his bed to take a walk outside.

    But as soon as he had walked out of his room, he began to see Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were all gathering at the tavern and they seemed to be gossiping quietly.

    But he still could pick up from words from their gossips.

    It was Ji Yuan this and Dream Mist that¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he wanted to bang his head: Maybe I should really try to bang Dream Mist and see what happens next¡­

 Chapter 563 The Yang Invincible Profound Arts (1)

    Almost as soon as Ji Yuan had stepped out of his room, he had bumped into his old master.

    "Ji Yuan, you can move now?! Hahaha¡­" The short old man chuckled loudly to greet him.

    His voice was so loud that the maidens below could all heard him.

    Immediately Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing, Yang Min and Bai Qianfeng were all pretending that they had identally bumped into one another. It was not long before they had all left hastily and some were even looking quite awkward.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he had used his stealth this time, "There goes my gossips¡­"

    The short old man had immediately pulled Ji Yuan to him as he lowered his voice to whisper, although his voice was still loud so his voice should be considered a loud whisper. "Little rascal, actually when I first saw Maiden Dream Mist, I already have a very good impression of her."

    Ji Yuan thought: You can really lie¡­

    "We are both men, you know. So did you copte with her?" The short old manughed. "And how does she look like behind her veil? Care to share? If you are sharing then I am all ears. Hahahaha..."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why don''t you go and die, old man?" Ji Yuan growled.

    The short old man continued to be persistent, "I have always treated you like my son-inw and I have even given Yang Mi to you. You can tell me and I will surely promise you to keep it a secret for you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why should you want to know? You can''t tell anyone what is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth anyway or this ce."

    The short old manughed awkwardly, "Because I am a man."

    "Lusty man you mean." Ji Yuan said with a bored expression. Then he said with a weak smile as he admitted, "I didn''t."

    The short old man looked very disappointed all of a sudden.

    But he quicklyughed, "I wonder who this Maiden Yun Chi is. She is actually quite aplished in her profound arts and I''m totally impressed by her."

    Ji Yuan growled immediately as he pulled his old master to him, "She is mine and she is carrying my child. So don''t you have any designs on her."

    The short old man frowned, "I know. Why are you so nervous about? Can''t you see that the Great Beyond Goddess is actually talking to her and best of all, she hates the Death God as much as I do."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly¡­

    "The Great Beyond Goddess is also talking to me but I don''t see my old man praising me¡­"

    "To be honest, I can only see that she is actually criticizing you," The short old man frowned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The short old man quickly asked Ji Yuan as if he remember something, "Did the Great Beyond Goddess give you the emperor-step divine sword? Care to let me have a look?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly recalled that Yun Chi now had an emperor-step divine sword.

    Her emperor divine sword had vanished in thin air when the Great Beyond Goddess had said, "You can keep this."

    Ji Yuan knew that the emperor divine sword was quickly pocketed by Yun Chi for she was the real mistress. However, his old master had misunderstood that the emperor divine sword was actually given to him because the Great Beyond Goddess did not name who would get the emperor divine sword.

    Ji Yuan muttered a weak exnation, "Maybe it was given randomly away but not to me though."

    The short old man looked extremely disappointed; owning an emperor divine sword was really such a lofty achievement for anyone especially a sword saint.

    "Or maybe she means that the Celestial Realm could have 1 emperor-step divine sword in existence and had sent it away. Haha¡­" Ji Yuanughed weakly as he offered another exnation.

    This caused the short old man to sigh even heavily as he muttered, "My emperor-step divine sword¡­ you know if I could have an emperor step divine sword when I am fighting the Death God, my victory would surely be ensured."

    Ji Yuan sarcastically said, "Why don''t you say it would be even better if Maiden Dream Mist would help us to take care of the Death God?"

    "s!" The short old man had immediately jumped up in sudden realization. "We should have fought with the Death God immediately in this case. Now Maiden Dream Mist is gone¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You didn''te to tell me all these am I right? Can I go now?"

    The short old man growled, "Of course not! I havee to look for you for something else."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "It has better to be good."

    The short old manughed aloud, "It is definitely good!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Stop beating the bushes and tell me."

    The short old man disyed a mischievous look as he looked with his divine sense in his surroundings to ensure that there was no one around before he whispered loudly, "Today I am going to give my Yang Invincible Profound Art and the Yang Invincible Sword Art to you."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he hurriedly said, "Old man! This is indeed a good matter. Seriously?! Why?"

    The short old man answered, "Come with me to a sealed room first. I do not want the profound secrets of my Yang Invincible Profound Arts to be identally leaked. This will be your trump card in the future."

    Then he sighed heavily, "Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and my daughter Chu Lixue are going back to the Death Faction now to issue a formal challenge to the Death God on my behalf. The Death God will certainly be very enraged especially when he has learnt that I am the one that had destroyed his secret immortal array¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded; they had all agreed to let his old master or the White Sword Monarch to im the credit for destroying the secret immortal array so that he would be the one that would attract the wrath of the Death God.

    The short old man said with a deep sigh, "However this may be a really brutal fight and I may note back alive."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t say that old man. You surely cane back!"

    Haha, I am sure that Yun Chi won''t kill you¡­

    The short old man took a look at Ji Yuan before he patted him, "Don''t stop me. I have already decided to be a tank for you. While I am entangling with the Death God, I want you to use your Grand Cross miracle sword art on the two of us. It is better for me to sacrifice myself than allow a true god to roam the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What if I were to say no?

 Chapter 564 The Yang Invincible Profound Arts (2)

    Ji Yuan was now in a sealed room with the short old man now.

    He was really excited because today his old master was going to finally impart to him his two most formidable profound arts, the Yang Invincible Body Art and the Yang Invincible Sword Art.

    As soon as they had entered the sealed room which was actually a sealed cultivation chamber that was underground, Ji Yuan was more docile than docile even though his golden eyes were looking greedily at his old master.

    The short old man said solemnly, "You must know that not even my two daughters are imparted these two profound skills because they are females and not males."

    Ji Yuan thought: In front of you, I can even be a weak male and not a strong male¡­

    The short old man took out two cultivation slips and passed it to Ji Yuan, "These two are the original cultivation slips."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "These two cultivation slips are originals? Not copies?"

    One must know that copies may not necessary be able to copy the original in its entirety for a cultivation slip is extremely difficult to copy even for masters. Moreover if a master has not passed away or ascended, usually the original cultivation slip will never be given away for it is too precious. As for why original cultivation slips are so precious, please refer to earlier chapters.

    The short old man shook his head, "Nope, they are not because there aren''t even any copies."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he stared at his old master, "Then how do my old man practice or improve upon these two profound arts in the future? This is too invaluable."

    Then he sighed softly before handing it back to his old master, "Nay! I am fine. You can take it back. These two cultivation slips are too precious for me¡­"

    Paaa!!!

    All of a sudden the short old man had punched Ji Yuan as he interrupted him with an unpleasant voice, "Idiot! You''re my son-inw. If I don''t pass this to you, do you expect me to pass it to someone else? All two of my daughters are both taking you as their lord!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You mean I am allowed to take Chu Lixue as my consort?"

    The short old man immediately frowned, "Between my two cultivation slips and my daughter Chu Lixue, you seem to be picking my daughter?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Did I? Haha¡­"

    The short old man had suddenly pped the top of Ji Yuan''s head, "Are you even a cultivator?! You should pick my cultivation slips!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Isn''t it the same¡­"

    But he quickly put on a straight face as he said with a forced smile, "Of course I pick your cultivation slips!"

    "This is so much better." The short old man snorted coldly as he stared at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan muttered something incoherent: If I am in the other celestial n, I won''t get beaten by you for choosing a maiden over your cultivation slips¡­

    The short old man was now grinning, "My Yang Invincible Body Art is one of the most powerful profound aura arts a sword practitioner can use¡­"

    "You know I am suck in this, right?" Ji Yuan could not help interrupting his old master.

    The short old man frowned before he continued, "A sword practitioner weakness is that all his profound energies are directed into the offensive, leaving behind little profound strength for profound aura. However, my Yang Invincible Body Art is different; a sword practitioner will be able to use his offensive sword arts together with it. And that is why this is called the Yang Invincible Body Art."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at his old master, "Is there really such a thing?"

    The short old man nodded, "And that is why this is called the Yang Invincible Profound Arts! Do you really think I will call these two profound arts as the Yang Invincible Profound Arts for nothing?"

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded as he muttered, "So every time I use my profound sword art, the Yang Invincible Body Art will also be activated? Is that what you mean?"

    The short old man nodded solemnly, "Little rascal, you finally got it! And moreover more, this Yang Invincible Body Art is just like your secondary innate ability so it would not cost you plenty of profound strength to use. In fact the principle of the Yang Invincible Body Art is the ability to use the profound energies of your sword art to generate a profound defense for you instead of relying on the spiritual seas of your profound strength!"

    Ji Yuan was totally impressed by such a profound art and he was nowughing jovially now, "Old man, if you have taught me this profound art earlier then I might have be the greatest swordsman in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Haha¡­"

    "Indeed you can!" The short old man grinned proudly.

    Ji Yuan was grinning as well, "And then I can show off in front of Chu Lixue and Jiajia. Haha¡­"

    "Jiajia? Who is she?" The short old man frowned.

    Ji Yuan patted the back of his old master, "Haha¡­ Jiajia is none other than the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flowers Divine Flower."

    The short old man almost stumbled, "Seriously?! She is actually someone that you know?!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Do I think that I am joking with you? And she is going to be one of my consorts too. Do you know that even my saintly divine sword is also from her?"

    The short old man began to frown slowly, "Actually you should remember that I''ve lost to her with my Yang Invincible Profound Arts? Right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I guess that your Yang Invincible Profound Arts aren''t so invincible after all¡­"

    He paused for a whole before asking weakly, "So, is there any weakness in the Yang Invincible Profound Arts? You know, before I start to practice it, you should at least tell me, right? After all you are the master while I am just your disciple."

    The short old man began to stroke his white beard, "This isn''t a major weakness but I can tell you alright. The Invincible Yang Body Art can only be triggered by the Invincible Yang Invincible Sword Art. That is why you have to practice the Yang Invincible Sword Art first¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why don''t you go die now, old man! This isn''t a major weakness? My foot!" Ji Yuan had started to raise his fists furiously to punch and kick his old master.

 Chapter 565 Do You Want To Be Immortals Or Not?

    In the meantime, elsewhere in the underground base of the Death Faction, Yun Chi was talking with her prot¨¦g¨¦s the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong.

    The events that had urred earlier in the deep underground cavern where the secret immortal array was destroyed, was still haunting them.

    It was because they had been so close to the presence of the Great Beyond Goddess and they did not even realize this.

    No one knows why the Great Beyond Goddess was in their midst and no one knows why the Great Beyond Goddess was helping Ji Yuan, who was just a mediocre cultivator.

    Ji Yuan was not just a mediocre cultivator but he also had several ws in his character and there were thousands of male cultivators that were better than him in terms of character. Therefore, it was not because of his character which was almost non-existent.

    Only Yun Chi knew that Ji Yuan had Xiang Li, a spirit entity that the Great Demon King feared would mess up his ns because Xiang Li could make a wish for her owner. It was because Xiang Li was the Goddess'' Tear or the Goddess Tear of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    That was why the Great Demon King wanted the Death God Mingwang to kill Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi had thought that it wasudable because she knew that Xiang Li''s wish was not formidable at all and could only give small benefits to the pure heart cultivator that could have her. Moreover, Ji Yuan was just a sword cultivator. Even some of his consorts were more dangerous than him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, like Bai Qianfeng, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue.

    But Ji Yuan was suddenly advancing very fast in terms of his cultivation strength and wits in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he was also unpredictable.

    At first Yun Chi had only wanted to y with Ji Yuan before killing him. But it had actually backfired; it was because this Ji Yuan was too idiot that she had be a fool too and fallen into his cheap tricks¡­

    No.

    She had suddenly thought: Xiang Li is more dangerous than anyone has thought. It is because everyone has thought that the Great Beyond Goddess is only at the 10th Immortal Positioning. But we are all wrong about this because we have all underestimated the profound powers of the Great Beyond Goddess. If the Great Beyond Goddess can grant powers beyond imagination to Xiang Li in the form of a wish, then the real Great Beyond Goddess is actually an unfathomable existence. It is because not even a 10th Immortal Positioning Divinity can grant such a godly power like a wish and moreover, can grant a wish through an avatar¡­

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had noticed that her three prot¨¦g¨¦s appeared to be restless after they had said farewell to Ji Yuan.

    The Lovely Empress was seen kicking her foot on the ground for no apparent reasons far too many times while the Smiling Divine Maiden refused to say a single word and she was looking away. As for Zhi Jiugong, she seemed to be lost.

    Yun Chi could not believe that all three prot¨¦g¨¦s of hers seemed to have fallen in love with Ji Yuan in such a short time.

    She said coolly, "What is wrong with all of you? The Great Beyond Goddess is a lofty existence. She won''t fall in love with Ji Yuan or be in Ji Yuan''s bed chamber. Ji Yuan may be a lewd cultivator but you should have no doubt about the Great Beyond Goddess."

    The Lovely Empress was suddenly looking at Yun Chi with her delightful countenance, "Really?!"

    Yun Chi nodded, "Of course. Will your mistress lie to you?"

    Even the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong seemed to have brightened up all of a sudden.

    But secretly Yun Chi did not believe in what she was saying and she had secretly sent a divine whisper transmission to Bai Qianfeng to ask her to find out the truth.

    After all, Yun Chi was also a woman and all women like to gossip.

    Yun Chi quickly reminded everyone, "We are back here to forge a fake challenge to the Death God Mingwang while Ji Yuan and the old freak wait for us. You are supposed to be pretending to betray the Death God and to help them to arrange for a duel outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly asked, "Mistress, are you really going to fight that old freak outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Of course not. I don''t even intend to turn up for the duel. He can wait and curse all he wants."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ???

    The Lovely Empress: ???

    Zhi Jiugong: ???

    Yun Chi said, "There are two things that I want everyone to do first. Firstly, announce to Bliss City that the Extreme Bliss Colosseum will be cancelled and all the other subsequent trials will also be cancelled. From now, this Bliss City will be just a peaceful city to take in the travelers."

    The three sisters slowly nodded¡­

    Yun Chi said, "The reason why we don''t want to destroy this wondend is because there are too many mortal cultivators here and they have only known Bliss City all their lives. They may as well stay in Bliss City."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded, "Mistress, you are right. But the lewd things, what are you doing to do about it?"

    Over the past thousands of years, Bliss City had actually be a corrupted city and the cultivators were even copting in the public ces.

    Yun Chi simply said, "None of our business. We are not staying here anymore."

    Zhi Jiugong quietly asked, "May your prot¨¦g¨¦ Zhi Jiugong asks something rude. Since we are destroying the trials in this wondend and restoring the profound treasures to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, does this mean that we are all betraying the Great Demon God and leaving this ce?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "Indeed. From now onward, we have nothing to do with the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God."

    Zhi Jiugong asked again, "Are we capable of opposing the Great Demon God?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "That will be my battle and not yours. As for the three of you, I have a second task for you to do."

    Everyone: ???

    Yun Chi said slowly, "Before I leave this ce with the 30 billion high grade spirit stones, I will help you to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm. This is the least that I can do for you."

    These 30 billion high grade spirit stones were actually meant to be given to Yun Chi''s little precious or her unborn daughter to cultivate. But it was not convenient for her to say so the reason to anyone.

    But if Ji Yuan were to learn about this, he would instantly vomit blood on the spot that his daughter education fund would be so monstrous plentiful.

    Yun Chi was a half-step divinity and she was sparing no expenses for her unborn daughter so her logic was unfathomable to Ji Yuan.

    The Lovely Empress was startled, "I am still so young. I don''t have to¡­ go to the Immortal Divine Realm!"

    When she had said that, even the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were ncing with a lost expression¡­

    Yun Chi said weakly, "This is what I''ve promised the three of you in the past and that is the reason why you have be my prot¨¦g¨¦s, right? With the profound treasures that I have collected from the cultivators in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, helping the three of you to ascend isn''t an issue for me."

    The Lovely Empress panicky said, "I feel that this Ji Yuan is definitely up to no good. He may be a beast in a man hide. I''ve decided to help my mistress to keep a close eye on him!"

    Yun Chi rolled her golden eyes: You mean that you''ve decided to join Ji Yuan''s harem and to help me to keep a close eye on the rest of his harem, am I right?

    "Mistress." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled with great shyness and her golden eyes were coyly, "The old freak is my father while Ji Yuan is my junior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother. Also, my younger sister is now betrothed to him. I am in a good position to monitor this Ji Yuan for you."

    Yun Chi was frowning silently: Ji Yuan got nothing to do with the Great Demon God. I am going to fight both the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God. This got nothing with Ji Yuan¡­

    Zhi Jiugong lowered her nces shyly, "I''m sure that mistress need an assistant to fight the Great Demon God, am I right? Then your prot¨¦g¨¦ Zhi Jiugong is willing to lend you a helping hand here."

    Instead of feeling pleased that finally one of her prot¨¦g¨¦s was helping her instead of talking about ji Yuan, Yun Chi frowned silently: Actually, you just want to have the opportunity to be with Ji Yuan and never about helping me¡­

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "For a mere celestial, you are all giving up a chance to be an immortal?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were all quiet all of a sudden.

    Yun Chi hummed softly before mncholy saying, "How about this. If he is willing to take the three of you as his consorts then I will allow you to stay in the Celestial Realm. How about it?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were all looking at one another and there was a glimmer of hope in their golden eyes¡­

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "I just happen to know his weakness and I can exploit it¡­"

    "What is it?" Zhi Jiugong interrupted panicky, "We are sisters, surely you don''t intend to hide his weakness from us?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled coyly and with great loveliness, "He is a free of charge man so he likes things that are free of charge¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Empress: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

 Chapter 566 All The Maidens Laughing Together

    When Yun Chu and her three prot¨¦g¨¦s the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had returned to the tavern where Ji Yuan was, they had learnt that Ji Yuan was in closed meditation with the old freak.

    What they were doing together, no one was in the know.

    However they were quickly greeted by Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi.

    Yun Chi muttered weakly, "What are these two men doing? Surely, they don''t have that fetish?"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her golden eyes, "Of course not!"

    Then she slowly whispered, "Do you think that Ji Yuan and Maiden Dream Mist have something on together?"

    Yun Chi was startled, "You''re asking me?"

    It was because Yun Chi had a lofty look and technically, she was epted into their group because she was able to shower them with her profound riches. However, except for Bai Qianfeng, she was not exactly popr with the rest of Ji Yuan''s harem.

    It seemed that gossips could really bring even love rivals together¡­

    Little Princess mesmerizing smiled to Yun Chi, "Surely you are not thinking of bringing your three friends into Ji Yuan''s harem?"

    It was because she had noticed that the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Empress were unusually docile in front of Yun Chi.

    Now only Bai Qianfeng in their group knew of Yun Chi''s real identity as the Death God Mingwang.

    Yun Chi was frank as she chuckled softly, "These three beautiful maidens here indeed like Ji Yuan. However, it is up to our lord decision whether to ept them or not. After all, Ji Yuan is someone who cannot count with his 10 fingers and if he has too many consorts, he won''t be able to keep track."

    Ling Feiyueughed alluringly, "He probably will starts counting with his toes. Hehe."

    As Yun Chi and Ling Feiyue poke fun of Ji Yuan behind his back, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were all shyly looking away. But at the same time, they were anxious because Ji Yuan may not want them to be in his harem.

    The most anxious was of course Zhi Jiugong; even though she had remembered how Ji Yuan had repaired her divine zither and this had touched the deepest innermost of her heart but she did not know how Ji Yuan would feel toward her. And he may even reject her. Even she was a peaked great saintess and had a lot of advantages but Ji Yuan was also a peaked great saint and he was also a young cultivator.

    So she thought: Maybe I should go to the Immortal Divine Realm instead of humiliating myself here¡­

    Feng Minyue had suddenly spoke out and dispelled her usual quiet and noble demeanor, "If you are all friends of Ji Yuan, why we are in such cold animosity? Maybe we should all sit down to get to know one another instead."

    Yang Mi smiled in her usual cheerful countenance, "That is right! I actually didn''t know much about Ji Yuan in the past¡­"

    As she said that, she was flushing beautiful. "I will like to know his past..."

    Then she was giggling softly as she pulled the Smiling Divine Maiden to her, "My Sister Lixue and I will really like to Ji Yuan better. Please don''t bully my sister!"

    Yu Jingjing was also smiling, "Any sister of Yang Mi is also my close sister!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped softly as she returned a faint smile, "Yang Mi¡­"

    "I am so pitiful." The Lovely Empress was suddenly saying. "I don''t have any solid mountain in your group¡­"

    "You do have." It was Bai Qianfeng who had interrupted her with a beautiful wink. "Thank you for helping Ji Yuan during the arena trial. From onward, we are close sisters."

    Then she looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong without putting on any air, "The two of you are also my close sisters."

    Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both startled but they were soon smiling delightfully.

    Yun Chi had told them that Bai Qianfeng was their prot¨¦g¨¦ sister but she was to be their leading prot¨¦g¨¦ and she was also to be their senior. It was because she was a 9th realm immortal goddess and also because she actually had a lofty status among the deste immortals as well. However the three sisters did not know anything about Bai Qianfeng''s personality as they did not much chance to interact with one another.

    This immortal sister of theirs were now admitting them as her close sisters as well!

    Yun Chi casually asked, "Bai Qianfeng, so did you have your breakthrough that day?"

    That day refers to the day when the secret immortal array was destroyed.

    Bai Qianfeng saw no reason to hide it from anyone since all the maidens here were either Ji Yuan''s or Yun Chi''s friends. So, she said nonchntly, "Thanks to the extra push by Maiden Dream¡­I mean the Great Beyond Goddess, I have now attained to the middle 9th realm immortal positioning. I am officially a high goddess now. Also, I am able to use my profound strength to the middle 8th realm cultivation strength now."

    The Great Beyond Goddess had not only given Yun Chi back her emperor-step divine sword, destroyed the emperor-step divine swords of the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God, destroyed the secret immortal array and she had also helped Bai Qianfeng to push up her spiritual boundaries for her to breakthrough to the forbidden middle 9th realm immortal positioning to be a high goddess!

    Everyone except Yun Chi was now gasping with shock; what kind of a realm was the 9th middle tier immortal positioning?!

    And Bai Qianfeng could actually use her profound strength to the permanent 8th immortal positioning now.

    Ling Feiyue wasughing softly now, "It seems that this is not going to be the duel between the Death God Mingwang and the White Sword Monarch but between our Sister Qianfeng and the Death God Mingwang now."

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling wryly as she looked at Yun Chi and her three prot¨¦g¨¦s, "Maybe."

    Except for Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi''s three other prot¨¦g¨¦s, no one knew that Yun Chi could disy her profound strength to the peaked 9th Immortal Positioning. However due to the restrictions in the Celestial Realm, she could not use any of the 8th and 9th realm profound arts in this ce unless she was willing to risk a bacsh.

    Little Princess was also smiling enticingly, "s. It seems that our Sister Qianfeng is going to beat our lord Ji Yuan even if he has his spirit animus to aid him."

    All the maidens wereughing jovially together now.

    The Lovely Empressughed, "I don''t need to be an immortal to bash Ji Yuan. I know his weakness."

    Ling Feiyue was curious, "You do?"

    The Lovely Empress nodded delightfully, "He is really very cheapskate and he likes things free of charge!"

    Ling Feiyueughed gently as she buried her hands to her face, "Even you know about this. I can''t tell you how cheapskate he is during our first meeting¡­"

    The Lovely Empress chuckled, "Tell me about it."

    Ling Feiyue started to look at Little Princess as theyughed jovially together, "He is not only cheapskate but he is also weird sometimes¡­"

    All the maidens including Yun Chi were now crowding around Ling Feiyue as theyughed at the same time, "Tell me about it¡­"

    In this group, only Ling Feiyue and Little Princess knew the most about Ji Yuan''s past.

    Hourster¡­

    Yun Chi wasughing nonstop, including many of the other maidens. "This Jiajia¡­ did you say that she is actually the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce? She has actually yed Ji Yuan around her fingertips?"

    Little Princess was also in the mood to admit, "Ji Yuan lost his first time to me too¡­ this is what happens¡­"

    All the maidens were stillughing nonstop when a furious Ji Yuan and the short old man had suddenly barged into the tavern hall.

    Ji Yuan and the short old man were both hitting each other and they were shouting too.

    Ling Feiyue was gasping as she asked Ji Yuan, "What is wrong?"

    All the maidens could see that Ji Yuan had turned red in his face.

    Ji Yuan''s face was all flushed with redness as he shouted furiously, "I''ve been practicing his Yang Invincible Profound Arts but it turns me all red now. How can I not be furious?!"

    The short old man protested immediately, "I did warn you not to rush the stages but you refuse to listen to me. My Yang Invincible Profound Arts will not only increase your profound strength but your masculine primeval yang ability too and that is why you have turned red."

    "How can I walk around the streets like this?" Ji Yuan punched his old master angrily. "How dare you ruin my beautiful face!"

    The short old man pulled Ji Yuan close to him to whisper, "You just need the icy divine bodies of some maidens and they could cause your redness to subside¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped hitting his old master as he whispered back, "Really?"

    "And¡­" the old man wasughing softly. "You will be more powerful below¡­"

    "Really? Haha¡­" Ji Yuan whispered as he patted his old master. "Why didn''t you say so, much earlier? Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue asked the other maidens, "What they are suddenly whispering about? And they have stopped fighting?"

    Many of the maidens were as perplexed as her.

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly raised her alluring voice, "Ji Yuan, look who is here now."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had stopped what he was doing and he was gasping delightfully because he had suddenly saw Yun Chi, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden again.

    The short old man was also startled as he looked in Ling Feiyue''s direction, "It is Maiden Yun Chi and my daughter Chu Lixue¡­"

 Chapter 567 Three New Consorts!

    Ji Yuan was naturally staring at the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress because Xiang Li was also thinking of bring them into her harem.

    Every time Ji Yuan had encountered the Smiling Divine Maiden, he could not help but in awe with her beautiful dignified appearance and her eyes that could smile with little disdain to everyone, immediately brightening the attention of all the male cultivators with her faint divine smiles.

    As for Zhi Jiugong, she had a quiet and coquettish look.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was not thinking about her most beautiful looks that was like a fairy or her heavenly and haunting softughter but coquettish and sexy naked legs. He had actually wanted to get to know Zhi Jiugong at the very start as he was mesmerizing by her devil naked body. But the real Zhi Jiugong had left really too hastily¡­

    As for the Lovely Empress, anyone that saw her would be in awe of her loveliness and she was like a fascinating y doll that cost men to lose their wills.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly; if only he could get them to be his consorts and that would be the most perfect thing that would happen to him in Bliss City.

    He had really grown close and fond of both the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress during the arena final. But it was a trial and they were bonded as temporary allies with amon enemy. When the trial had ended, it was actually time to say farewell.

    The thing was, after he had learnt that they were all Yun Chi''s prot¨¦g¨¦s, he had almost given up the thought of being with them. A little flirt was alright to him.

    Well, if his old master insisted on marrying his oldest daughter Chu Lixue to him, then he had no other choice but to ept it.

    Ji Yuan was a sword saint with a high moral principle and he would never touch his prot¨¦g¨¦s or touch his consort''s prot¨¦g¨¦s. In his heart, he was still a traditional orthodox cultivator and he was unlike the unorthodox or even the heretic cultivators that had messy rtionships.

    Yun Chi was now asking Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, it seems that these three maiden friends of yours are going to a farewell journey and they may never being back anymore."

    She was naturally referring to the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What did you just say?!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked woefully at Ji Yuan, "It is actually time for my immortal ascension. I am actually thousands of years older than you or Yang Mi."

    The short old man was sighing too, "That''s right. It is about time. The life span of the celestials in the Celestial Divine Realm actually depends on the lightning tribtions that they had faced. I am actually also an ancient old fellow that is due for ascension too but I have anchored to this realm with a powerful profound artefact so that I can help to free my daughter from the evils of this wondend. Look at my white hair and you will know. Myst wish will be to fight the Death God Mingwang and to kill him for the good of our Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan was heartbreak when he had heard this and he was now trembling hard, "Tell me this isn''t the truth?!"

    The expressive golden eyes of the Smiling Divine Maiden were woeful as she melecholy said like a soft whisper, "Ji Yuan. From these maidens, I have already known so much about you. This may be enough for me to cherish our memories together. Maybe this is really time for us to part now¡­"

    "No!" Ji Yuan had interrupted soundly. "Why?! What is so fun about being an immortal? Because the celestials have to face their divine cmity or because your time is really up? If it is your divine cmity, I will help you!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled by Ji Yuan''s outburst, "You will help me to ovee my divine cmity?"

    There is actually no divine cmity in this wondend and all the celestials fear the Divine Cmity that would take away their lives if they are unprepared for it.

    "What right do you have to order me to stay in this realm?" The Smiling Divine Maiden looked woefully at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan answered firmly as he said shamelessly, "My old man and your father has agreed to betroth you to me as my consort."

    To hell with his moral principle!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was gasping softly; it was because even though she has liked Ji Yuan but in reality, she found it really hard to tell Ji Yuan her true feelings due to huge age gap between them. "My father has betrothed me to you? But I am evil¡­"

    "But you are always my daughter, no matter what." Interrupted the short old man with a heavy sigh. "If I don''t love you as my daughter, will I even be here in the first ce?"

    There were woeful tears in the Smiling Divine Maiden now as she looked at the short old man. Then she was weeping and she had suddenly kneeled down in front of him, "This unfilial daughter doesn''t deserves your attention and fatherly love!"

    The short old man appeared to be awkward as he hurriedly lifted her up, "s! Don''t cry anymore. Go to this little rascal from this day onward. He will take care of you. Do you know that he keeps pestering me for you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, "Really?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly before heughed firmly, "Yes I did¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly shed into Ji Yuan''s embrace and she was weeping hard!

    Many of the maidens all had watery eyes when they saw the Smiling Divine Maiden was weeping in Ji Yuan''s embrace and this included Yun Chi who was sighing, "This is good¡­"

    The Lovely Empress also have watery eyes as she nced downward, "I guess that I have to go to the Immortal Divine Realm now because I am the most unwanted here¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly shed to her and he was lifting her delicate chin to look at him with her shimmering and hazy golden eyes, "Who says you are unwanted? You are worth 50 million high grade spirit stones a session haha."

    "Go and die Ji Yuan!" The Lovely Empress had raised her fist and leg to kick Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan had simply seized her into his embrace by grabbing her slender waist.

    "Come with me too." Ji Yuan said gently to her.

    When he had said that, the Lovely Empress was shyly nodding and she had buried herself into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    Yun Chi sighed again, "So be it then¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong began to look away and her countenance was regretful; it was because in the end she could not put down her pride to say anything to Ji Yuan and also because she was not a little maiden anymore.

    She was quite surprised to see Ji Yuan standing in front of her and he was saying earnestly, "We can''t have only two sisters and not three sisters together, am I right? Come with me too."

    Zhi Jiugong was numbed from the shock of seeing Ji Yuan in front of her that she began to fall like a dainty fairy into his arms. "I am¡­ most willing¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was smiling beautifully and there were tears in her eyes as she shrugged her shoulders gently, "Well, I''m not opposing them to join us."

    Yun Chi was also surprised; Ji Yuan seemed a bit abnormal today? Isn''t he so dense and unromantic in the past? Why is he so romantic today?

    Today, Ji Yuan was going to be the most shameless cultivator ever!

    And he was suddenly holding Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden at the same time while shouting jovially to the other maidens, "This cultivator today is a rich patron! Whoever can toast me a drink, I will reward you with a million high grade spirit stones. Haha..."

    All of a sudden, the short old man was pping his forehead and breaking into cold sweat; it was because he had suddenly remembered that Ji Yuan was actually drunk. He was not really drunk in the real sense but he was drunk from practicing the Yang invincible Profound Arts that caused his face to turn red and he was full of masculine now.

    The short old man was muttering weakly, "This.. is a horrible wrong timing¡­ "

    A dumbfounded Yun Chi smiled weakly, "Actually we are here to inform you that the Death God Mingwang has issued the White Sword Monarch to a duel just outside this wondend. If anyone do not turn out for this duel then they are a coward and they would not be able to fight each other for the next 100 years¡­"

    Actually, this message was not supposed to be delivered by her but by the Smiling Divine Maiden. But right now, she had lost her soul in Ji Yuan''s embrace¡­

    Author Note:

    1) The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress actually have a good ending as supposed to their first appearances in Bliss City which is actually to throw the readers off.

    2) There is actually no n to show the Extreme Bliss Colosseum, hence it is why it is shown as the very start to showcase how trecherous that ce is. Since JY is not going there, we still need to show that evil ce, right? Or else the mood won''t fit it and there will be a disappointment why it is so dangerous right?

 Chapter 568 White Sword Monarch Vs. Death God

    Bliss City;

    The next day, Ji Yuan and his group was leaving Bliss City. This group naturally consisted of Yun Chi, the Lovely Smiling Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress as well.

    All the maidens seemed to be in jovial mood and they wereughing softly; they were such beautiful sight that all the male cultivators were looking in their way.

    As there were no more trials and the famous Extreme Bliss Colosseum was mysteriously shut down, many of the cultivators in Bliss City were unhappy; many of them actually knew what was inside the Extreme Bliss Colosseum.

    Also, Ji Yuan did not see the Great Heroine Ye Jing again even though the Lovely Empress had told him that she had released everyone.

    The real Ye Jing was probably too shy and shocked to appear after she had awakened from hera and had fled Bliss City immediately.

    Today was also the day which the duel between the Death God and the short old man was supposed to be held.

    But for now, Ji Yuan was truly awkward; it was because he had 3 new consorts out of a sudden after he made all sorts of promises just to embrace them and to flirt with them in his drunken state.

    He was not acting like himself but from his primeval instinct after getting conned by his old master to learn the Yang Invincible Profound Arts which turned his face red with masculine shamelessness.

    This was not exactly a bad thing since he had always coveted the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress.

    But he had regretted immediately after he had sobered up.

    It was because he had prevented them from ascending as immortals which was actually a good thing for them and he had also promised them to help them with their divine cmities.

    Now facing the divine cmities was extremely hard and he had no cultivation profound treasures to help them...

    Another deep regret was that he had taken out his 30 million high grade spirit stones to show off in front of Ling Feiyue and the other maidens; in the end, it had all been taken away by the maidens as he showered rich gifts of spirit stones to embrace all the maidens...

    Like newlyweds, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were now hugging Ji Yuan as they walked out of Bliss City.

    The short old man was smiling bitterly because Ji Yuan was under the influence of his Yang Invincible Profound Arts for the whole ofst night and also because today was the day he would be fighting with the Death God.

    To be precise, Ji Yuan and the rest his group would also be joining also.

    So, this was not a 1 to 1 duel but they were allowed to fight 10: 1 against the Death God. It was a fight that they could not back off because it was a spiritual contract and they had signed with their soul seas!

    The short old man asked Ji Yuan, "Little rascal, what do you think of our chance of winning against the Death God Mingwang?"

    Ji Yuan took a look at Yun Chi before weakly answered, "100% my old man will win."

    The short old man was startled, "You have so much faith in me?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he shrugged his shoulders, "That is because you have 5 golden talismans. Haha¡­"

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen; it was because he had suddenly spotted Xi Jingping nearby.

    Xi Jingping was naked in the streets and there were two men that were openly toying with her. And these two men were actually merely lowly celestials who are not even a golden celestial. However, she seemed most willing and she allowed them to run wantonly on her as she parted her slender naked legs for her as she seemed to sink with intoxicated depravity.

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi immediately averted their guilty eyes; they refused to even acknowledged that they had such a matriarch as their leader.

    And even the short old man was angry upon seeing her; it was because Yang Mi had told him about Xi Jingping and how she had tried to get her to be a living furnace.

    Zhi Jiugong simply said, "I don''t want to dirty my hands to kill her. She can stay in this city all her life. Hmph!"

    Yun Chi said, "Hm, her cultivation realm seems to drop to the sixth realm golden supremacy level? She used to be a great saintess. This is such a tremendous drop in cultivation realm."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "I''ve crippled her evil dual cultivation art. She is a traitor to my celestial n and therefore I have partially crippled her cultivation as a lesson to her."

    Ji Yuan had wanted to kill Old Witch Xi in the past but he was toozy to kill her now. Moreover, in Bliss City, hurting another person was not allowed.

    Suddenly, he turned to Zhi Jiugong to ask, "How do you do that?"

    Then he turned to ask the Lovely Empress, "And how do you make Ye Jing slipped into aa? What methods did you use?"

    Zhi Jiugong was suddenly quiet while the Lovely Empress was giggling lovingly, "Ji Yuan, don''t you think the streets are so beautiful today?"

    The two of them simply refused to tell Ji Yuan the special mysticw of the Extreme Bliss Colosseum could allow them to actually break this co-existentw in Bliss City temporary at a certain triggered condition and they had made use of this secret loophole that no one other the ringleaders of the Bliss City know about.

    Soon they were out of Bliss City and they had also crossed the vast waters of the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind to leave this wondend.

    Back to the pier where they first saw this wondend, there were still hundreds of cultivators that were queuing to enter this ce. It was near the pier that they began to wait patiently for the arrival of the Death God Mingwang and was patiently on high alert for a powerful profound animus to appear at anytime.

    The short old man was nervous and he looked extremely solemn.

    It was because this duel was going to be his hardest battle ever.

    However Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were still casually chatting while the rest of the maidens were as anxious as the short old man the White Sword Monarch.

    After they had waited a full day, Yun Chi smiled with plenty of praises to the short old man. "That challenge contract has the Death God Mingwang''s soul bond vow to the Great Beyond Goddess and there is not a chance that he will actually break this. For someone so powerful as to break the secret immortal array, he is truly afraid of you, the White Sword Monarch. Therefore, he won''t touch you for the next 100 years."

    When the short old man had heard this, he wasughing jovially. "Hahahaha, I actually know that the Death God Mingwang is nothing about a coward. Hohoho¡­"

    When he hadughed, all the other maidens were alsoughing jovially with him too; most were eitherughing that they needed not fight with the Death God Mingwang today or because they wereughing because he was silly to believe that he had really scared off the Death God Mingwang.

    "I have always believed in my absolute faith in you," Yun Chiughed softly with the short old man. "The unrighteous can never triumph over the righteous, am I right to say so? With the White Sword Monarch around, even the Death God Mingwang is nothing but a hot air balloon. He dares not evene out to punish his own traitors. What a coward he is!"

    The short old man was praising Yun Chi to the heavens, "Maiden Yun Chi is indeed a most righteous cultivator!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes weakly as he looked at Yun Chi who seemed disconcerted and she too, wasughing jovially along with the short old man.

    He was muttering silently: Old man, I can''t believe that you believe in everything that Yun Chi has said to you. If you know that she is the Death God Mingwang, I bet that you will shit in your pants instead...

 Chapter 569 The Assault At Mt. Eons Firmament (1)

    Continued from the events in Chapter 499.

    The Eon Firmament Mountains;

    The entire mountains were shaking violently because at this moment, hundreds of deste beasts were crawling from the deste mists to destroy the many formidable defense arrays of the Eon Firmament Mountains!

    Thousands of cultivators were now standing within the defensive arrays of the Eons mountains and the banners of their celestial ns were flying defiantly in the face of iing threat.

    And they were all listening to an astonishing breathtaking great saintess who was now talking to them in the face of dangers.

    And she was the Great Saintess Fang Zhenfei or Jiajia.

    Jiajia was apanied by Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, 6 other saintesses and 2 grand elders of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    And on this day, she was the de facto leader of this alliance.

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei or Jiajia were now saying to the numerous cultivators that had gathered to listen to her, "For three days now, the Evil Cultivation Pce has been attacking and tearing through the profound defenses of this ce. We have now almost expended most of our high grade spirit stones and will no longer be able to use our array profound defense anymore to hold back our enemies¡­"

    "But are you afraid?" She paused to ask.

    The Diviner Mo Ming, his elders and thousands of cultivators from the Mo n were all shouting frantically, "NO! We are not afraid at all! We shall live and die together!"

    This included several thousand other cultivators from the other ns such as the Celestial Orthodox Sect, Water Melody Pce, Hundred Flowers Divine Pce, Profound Heaven Manor, Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was holding Sky Forth; it was merely a heaven-step precious sword and not even a divine sword but it was a sword that her old master Ji Yuan had once used. Apanying her was naturally Shangguan Yan. The Emperor Hall Sect was too weak to send any help so they were alone.

    Zhao Songjin had actually given Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan a divine sword each but these two prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters had rejected it.

    The Profound Heaven Manor was led Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and there were three thousand cultivators that were with her.

    Her fatrher the Great Saint Jian Kang was at the Profound Heaven Manor and did note. However he had sent his daughter, the Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo more than 300 golden celestials to defend this ce. He had actually wanted to send more but many of the golden celestials from his celestial n was actually still inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Matriarch Moon Elder Ling Tianshui was leading the Spirit Blue Moon Sect.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were actually leading the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the Hundred Flower Divine Pce but at this moment, they were standing next to their prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress.

    Shui Qingqing was naturally leading the Water Melody Pce as Pce Mistress. However, she seemed tock experiences and was constantly asking her elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s for help. The cultivators from the Water Melody Pce was actually all females.

    Matriarch Sacred Maiden Han Yuchi and Right Protector Zhao Songjin on the other hand were leading the female cultivators from the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    Jiajia sighed softly as she disyed her spellbinding demeanor to say with great dignity to all the cultivators presented.

    "It is most unfortunately that we have many orthodox and unorthodox celestial ns that are on the side of the Evil Cultivation Sect. Even a major orthodox n like the Mystic Profound Pavilion has chosen to join the sides of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    "We did not expect that the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa will attack us from below the deste mists where our array defenses are the weakest¡­"

    "It is actually my Mo n''s fault," Diviner Mo Ming sighed. "All these years, we are only guarding against the threats from the above and not the bottom."

    Jiajia smiled nonchntly, "It is all thanks to you that we have an advance warning too."

    Then she began to sigh most melecholy, "It is my entire fault and I didn''t realize this. In order to revive my Xiao Ruan, I have to use the Dream Trial and this is something that they have already calcted against me. So, when I am here, they have decided tounch their attacks to corner me."

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo shook her head, "This isn''t your fault. The entire Eon Firmament Mountains are isted from the other mountains. The only way here is by flying mounts. If we have more mounts then we will have more cultivators that cane to defend this ce."

    Diviner Mo Ming was smiling bitterly as he looked at the translucent form of the gigantic Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, "This is actually our fault for being in a ce so defensive. s, maybe today is the end of my Mo n."

    Hua Wuwu could not resist a soft chide, "You are not the only celestial ns here."

    Hua Baiyue was nodded angrily too, "I say that this so call Deste Dragon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce is only so and so. If they are really so capable, it won''t take them 3 days to destroy our defensive arrays."

    Diviner Mo Ming bitterly said, "If it is the other major celestial ns, our defensive array can actuallyst for nearly a month¡­"

    Jiajia flipped her sleeves as she looked up to the heavens where the translucent form of the gigantic Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that was shaped like the Great God Pangu sitting on an equally gigantic mythical Xuanwu Tortoise was located. "I am just wondering where Ji Yuan is now. I wonder if he is well inside?"

    Diviner Mo Ming was also sighing, "I''ve asked him to protect the Mo n before he has entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But I have never expected that the Mo n that he is supposed to be protecting isn''t inside but outside."

    Although he was saying that, he was actually looking at the Saintess Fang Zhenfei; the two of them had pretended not to know each other in front of Ji Yuan. In fact, Saintess Fang Zhenfei had told him to lie to Ji Yuan so as to get him to join the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth which may be good for him.

    As for Saintess Fang Zhenfei, she needed to fight the Evil Cultivation Sect alone as Ji Yuan would not be able to help her much. Between romance and mission, she was forced to choose her mission.

    Even though Jiajia had known Ji Yuan for 200 years but most of the time, she was not free to look for him or to plot against him. So she was always forcing herself to postpone her possible romance.

    Han Yuchi weakly said, "This Ji Yuan is the only cultivator with an immortal divine sword. His sword is our only hope against the forces of evil."

    She did not know that Ji Yuan actually had two saint-step divine swords now.

    Zhao Songjin was nodding as well as she lowered her nces with heartfelt emotions, "I believe in him and I¡­ don''t ever wish to go back being ackey of the Evil Cultivation Pce again."

    There was a soft chuckle that had suddenly appeared; an extremely beautiful maiden in white had suddenly arrived and she was radiating the vicinity with her adorable smiles.

    She was actually the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and following behind her was Qiu Xiuyu, an equally beautiful maiden with a stunning appearance like a fairy. In fact Qiu Xiuyu was also known as Fairy Qiu Xiuyu in the mortal realm and she was really very beautiful.

    Maiden Qiu Xiuyu had imed to be Ji Yuan''s consort while he was in the mortal realm and at the very start Xue Qianxue actually did not believe in her. But now they were as close as sisters after spending plenty of time together. Moreover, Qiu Xiuyu was also helping Xue Qianxue to take care of her baby son for her.

    Xue Qianxue was chuckling softly as she looked at everyone, "Please don''t look at me like this even though I am one of the four peerless maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. To be honest, I have already more or less recovered and I can fight as good as anyone here."

    Then she winked at Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin, "This great saintess here who is also the Sacred Maiden of the Celestial Orthodox n and kin of the Mo n wishes to fight just like everyone here. I can''t allow my fellow cultivators to fight while I rest, don''t you agree?"

    Han Yuchi was startled, "Qianxue, you sure you don''t want to recuperate more? You have just only given birth."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled as she rolled her expressive golden eyes, "Um, nope! I''m the only one in the Celestial Orthodox n that has mastered the Sacred Battle Maiden to the 9th profound rank. So naturally I am stronger than most of you here. Moreover I am also a great saintess with the purple lightning tribtion. So how can I idle here?"

    Han Yuchi sighed softly as she took a guilty look at Xue Qianxue, "Alright then. If you are unwell, please tell me and I will ask our cultivators to cover you¡­"

    At the same time, she was also discreetly looking at her other daughter Shui Qingqing who had annocent aura around her. But today, she was also forced to fight for the Water Melody Pce because her matriarch was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Jiajia did not say anything because she knew that it was impossible to change Xue Qianxue''s mind and right now, they were all fighting for their own survival.

    Qiu Xiuyu took a quiet look at Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan before she walked to Jiajia.

    While she was here with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, she was quite shocked to learn that her grand patriarch Li Ye was merely an elder in the Emperor Hall Sect and that he already got someone else in mind. As for Ji Yuan, he was actually Li Ye''s sect leader and he was also more renowned than Li Ye. It was no wonder why Ji Yuan had refused to bow down to Li Ye.

    Qiu Xiuyu carried a golden robe that Ji Yuan had given to her and she had walked up to Jiajia to say, "This is for your protection in battle. I don''t need it. I am too weak anyway."

    Jiajia smiled and was touched by her gesture; she held onto her hand and said gently, "Please keep this golden robe for yourself. I''ve better ones. In fact, I am full of profound treasures. Please take good care of Ji Yuan''s child in your belly instead..."

 Chapter 570 The Assault At Mt. Eons Firmament (2)

    Jiajia was still musing as she smiled to Qiu Xiuyu, "Protect your unborn child. This is your first priority to our lord Ji Yuan."

    Although Ji Yuan had never touched her chastity and they had never officially be lord and consort but she considered herself to be a consort of Ji Yuan; it was because Ji Yuan was worthy of her.

    She also got a sister too, Shui Xisi and they were shared the same mother as well.

    n names were irrelevant to them for their mother was the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, once the Sovereign Empress of the Three Known Realms.

    The two of them were originally in the Celestial Realm for their self-cultivation as the Immortal Divine Realm was not a ce for low level cultivation and they were expected to join their mother consort in the Immortal Divine Realm at ater date.

    However, Shui Xisi was too yful while she had held too many responsibilities in eradicating evil from the Celestial Realm.

    While she had only a celestial-step divine sword the Hundred Flowe Divine Sword, Shui Xisi had the replica immortal-step of their mother consort''s divine sword. It was deemed that Shui Xisi being her younger sister was in need of a better protection.

    Now both of them were peaked great saintesses and Shui Xisi was even running her own celestial sect the Water Melody Pce to support her Hundred Flowers Divine Pce. Although she was supposed to be supporting but she was full of refusal most of the time. It was because she had actually done it on purpose as she craved to receive the attention of her Sister Feifei which was also Jiajia.

    Jiajia had always thought that her sister was willful and was always causing trouble for her. But now that they had finally resolved the differences, they were close again. Also, they have also fallen in love together with Ji Yuan too.

    Right now, Shui Xisi was in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth undergoing her trials.

    She wished both her and Ji Yuan good luck.

    As cultivators, they had to face the various difficult trials to gain experience.

    Even though she could be very protective of her Sister Sisi (Shui Xisi) but trials were all personal and she was not able to help her once she was in there. Moreover, her Sister Sisi was not as weak as supposed or else she would not be a peaked great saintess. The number of trials that she had experienced were numerous, although her trial results could be said to be quite horrible for a powerhouse influence.

    Naturally she did not know that her Sister Sisi had indeed failed a trial in the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she was not able to join Ji Yuan in the final trial. Or that most of the trial she was just relying on Ji Yuan to quickly ovee her trials in there.

    All of a sudden, the entire mountain tform that they were assembling in, was beginning to shake violently as the fragile profound defense arrays of the Eons Mountains were now being torn apart by the profound might of the attackers.

    Hundreds of powerful deste beasts were now rushing up the mountains and the evil cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce and its allies were also rushing into the outer defenses of the fragile arrays.

    She hastily told Hua Baiyue and Bai Wuwu, "Please look after Maiden Qiu Xiuyu."

    Then her astonishing beautiful golden eyes were beaming as she pronounced with her breathtaking profound voice as she exercise her divine echo profound art, "Formation!"

    When she had shouted formation, this means that all the weaker cultivators of the same celestial n were now forming themselves into a battle array so that they could strengthen and linked their profound animus together into a profound defense as an defensive act against the more powerful profound attacks of the deste monsters and the great celestials.

    There were numerous normal celestials among them and they were not the hard to kill golden celestials. Therefore, they had to band together in order to stand a chance of fighting against the powerful deste monsters and the golden celestials that wereing their way.

    Jiajia could see that the Evil Cultivation Master was leading thousands of cultivators to storm into their weaken arrays now.

    She was gasping, "How did they manage to break through our profound defenses so fast?"

    Then she saw something unusual; the Sagess Alyssa were leading 13 cultivators of the great saint cultivation strength and these female cultivators were just shing through their defensive ranks as though it was cheese.

    These 13 female cultivators were not exactly strong but they could regenerate instantly and their auras were red, instead of the usual blue, purple, white and yellow. Also they could also perform their profound attacks in a blink of an eye without the need to recharge their profound strength.

    And there was also a particr unknown female cultivator with the red aura and she was at the middle 8th realm cultivation level that had caught Jiajia''s attention.

    Jiajia gasped softy, "8th cultivation realm?! She is an immortal cultivator too?"

    Xue Qianxue, Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo had immediately recognized this new threat and they were all responding to fight against this unknown powerful cultivator.

    The rest of the golden saints were all rushing to the front to fight the deste monsters that were also pouring into their defensive lines.

    Naturally these enemies were not the most powerful.

    The most powerful of them all were the Deste Dragon God Longdi and he had levitated on top of the super vast mountain tform as he sent the great pressure of his cultivation strength to ripple upon all the fighting cultivators and the deste monsters.

    "9th cultivation realm!"

    "He can fly?!"

    "He is an immortal god?!"

    "Can we even fight that thing?"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi disyed his full haughtiness from above, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei, where are you?! Do you dare to fight me again? You may have escaped thest time but unfortunately, your escape ns have already been calcted. No matter how you try to escape from our hands, we are always one step ahead of you. Today is the day that I will break your holy jade body!"

    Jiajia''s White Paragon Xuanfeng, a 7th rank profound divine phoenix with four wings and six reflective tails were already howling angrily at the profound haughtiness of this challenger.

    Jiajia said to her divine beast, "Go help the rest. I will be alright."

    Then a burst of golden light had enveloped her light blue robe and the translucent icy blue light of her Xiao Ruan the Spirit Blue Phoenix could be seen forming as her spirit animus.

    In that instant, she had leviated herself and shed to the same eye level of the Deste Dragon God Longdi by disying her profound cultivation realm to the peak of the 8th cultivation realm.

    "Saintess Fang Zhenfei is also an immortal cultivator?"

    "Or is it the profound power of her spirit animus?"

    "She has the rare spirit blue phoenix as spirit animus!"

    "But 8th realm vs 9th realm, our side still stands no chance¡­"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed jovially, "Are you kidding me? 7th realm and 8th realm cultivation is still so much below me. Moreover, once I disable your spirit animus then your cultivation realm will drop immediately!"

    Jiajia hummed coldly, "Why don''t you take my Hundred Flower Divine Strike again?"

    All of a sudden, her profound animus burst like a gigantic pair of blue phoenix wings as a wave of powerful blue profound energies began to form in the instant as she aimed at the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    The Deste Dragon God Longdi immediately evaded out of the way as he knew how powerful this attack was.

    Instantly a wave of blue profound light began to sh like a ray of death throughout the battle field and instantly obliterated hundreds of attacking deste beasts and cultivators that were below the Deste Dragon God Longdi!

    "Your target is actually below me?!"

    Almost all the cultivators could not believe what they were seeing when Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s profound attack streaked from the heavens to obliterate so many of her enemies in an instant.

    "What the hell is this strike?!"

    "It is a miracle profound art?!"

    "Even for a miracle profound art, I have never seen anything like this before¡­"

    "I don''t think this is even a 7th realm profound art. It may even be a 8th realm cultivation miracle profound art¡­"

    The Deste Dragon God Longdiughed haughtily, "Is this what you got? Your main target isn''t my troops but me. Once you have expended all your profound strength, you are mine to take. Our power disparity is still too huge to ovee even though you are capable of using your 8th realm profound art."

    Jiajia answered softly but it was loud and clear to everyone as she was still using her divine echo, "Even so, I can still defeat you. This time is different from thest time because this time I have mergedpletely with my Xiao Ruan and I am also a peaked 8th realm cultivator. Plus, I know your weakness after we have fought with each other."

    The Dragon Deste Godughed jovially, "I will have my weakness? Tell me about it."

    Jiajia said nonchntly, "Although you are a 9th realm immortal cultivator but you are still weaker than your original self. Not only you can''t use your above 7th realm profound arts here but every time that you have tried to use your 9th realm profound strength to fight me, you will be very slow. This may not be noticeable to you for it is only 2 blinks of an eye but to me, I can make use of your shorings to defeat you."

    The Deste Dragon God was now frowning, "I must admit that you are indeed very observant and you can indeed spot the weakness of the true gods here. However, this is your bad luck that your opponent is me and not the Great God of Death. Because I am definitely stronger than the Death God Mingwang and I have no such weakness¡­"

    All of a sudden the Dragon Deste God had exploded with his profound aura and he had transformed into his true dragon humanoid form!

    His profound power had also increased and the pressure that he was exerting was even flooring all the cultivators that were below the 3rd cultivation realm!

    Now only was he looking stronger, bulkier and also, he had two fierce ck wings on his back!

    "When I am in this form, I can fight as though I am in the Deste Divine Realm. Therefore, you have miscalcted today!"

    Jiajia was gasping and she was trembling. Her heart had sunk immediately. She was betting on a slim chance to defeat this monster but now it had be hopeless; she had indeed miscalcted again¡­

    She had sent her Sister Sisi to help Ji Yuan against the Death God Mingwang but even if her Sister Sisi was here today, the two of them would be able to stand a stand against the Deste Deste God Longdi!

 Chapter 571 The Assault At Mt. Eons Firmament (3)

    This lone enemy female cultivator was indeed very bold; she had rushed into the midst of the hundreds of cultivators seemingly without fear and she had every reason to be so. It was because she was an 8th rank power cultivator!

    Even when other golden saints were surrounding her, she had shown no fear.

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo was now saying to Han Yuchi, Zhao Songjin and Xue Qianxue. "Be careful! She is unbelievably strong!"

    A golden animus of a winged battle maiden had suddenly burst forth from Xue Qianxue''s profound aura as she disyed the highest level of her internal profound art the 9th Rank Sacred Maiden Profound Art!

    Xue Qianxue pursed her cherry red lips to say, "I can get close to her with my spirit animus!"

    The special spirit animus of the Celestial Orthodox Sect was a defensive spirit animus type and could tank more effective than the other types of spirit animus.

    Xue Qianxue had once used her spirit animus to protect herself, Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan from their lightning tribtion.

    She knew that her opponent was a 8th realm power cultivator so it was not possible for them to win even if she threw all her attacking profound arts on her. But defense wise, she was definitely superior and she had the intention to buy everyone as much time as possible.

    Maybe long enough for Ji Yuan to appear and to bad mouth her to the death?

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly as she was starting to miss her foul-mouthed lord now¡­

    In the meantime, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin had also disyed their battle maidens spirit animus to help support Xue Qianxue!

    Now they had three almost unbreakable wall of spirit animus!

    The unknown female cultivatorughed, "It won''t be long before I will be able to break your profound defense."

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo swung her sword at her before being covered by Xue Qianxue, "Who are you? And what is your name?"

    "My name? I am just called Number 5 and I have no name." The unknown female cultivator called Number 5 smirked coldly. "I am an 8th realm power cultivator and I am stronger than anyone of you here. Even if you are able to reach the same realm as me, you won''t have my profound power. It is because I am not human. You can say that I am from the demonic race instead."

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, Han Yu Chi, Zhao Songjin, Xue Qianxue and 6 other golden saints were all startled. "She isn''t a celestial? But is from the demonic race?"

    Number 5ughed, "That''s right. And I can tell you that other than the Deste Dragon God Longdi here, I am the most powerful."

    Then she paused to grin, "Not exactly."

    She pointed at the skies and said, "This Saintess Fang Zhenfei isn''t that bad and she may have the profound might to defeat me. However, her opponent is the Deste Dragon God and she won''t survive his wrath. But of course, our intention is not to kill her but to bring her back¡­"

    Then she smirked coldly and pointed at Xue Qianxue. "And I''m going to bring you back as well. Or else when do you think I have been so lenient so far?"

    As she said that, she had pieced her heaven-step divine sword into the unfortunate golden body of a saint cultivator, bursting his profound defense with just a single hit.

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Why do you want me back from? I will rather die than be a living furnace of the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    Number 5 gave a haughterughter before she brandished her divine sword upward in the form of a red burning bird before she mmed upon Xue Qianxue with such a great force that Xue Qianxue and beside Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi were all swept away by her!

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo was startled as she tried to sped forward but in less than 10 strokes, she was knocked back as well!

    "You are just too weak to stand below me." Just as Number 5 was about to put Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo to the sword, Shui Qingqing had suddenly raised her divine sword and she was followed by 6 of her golden saint protectors.

    Number 5 snorted, "Just more flies for me to kill."

    She had immediately raised her profound energies again to disy the same fire bird ming sword again when Shui Qingqing inhaled deeply before causing her divine sword to turn golden.

    Number 5 did not know what had happened but she was suddenly knocked back with a loud thunderous impact!

    Shui Qingqing was inhaling heavily now; she had just used her Divine Exaltation to neutralize the profound attack of her enemy to buy everyone some time. However she was not able to use this super secret profound attack anytime so soon... for this was an immortal art that only Shui Xisi and Saintess Fang Zhenfei know about it but it had its own weakness too.

    Her 6 female golden saint protectors were all shouting, "Protect our pce mistress!"

    And they had sped to attack Number 5 who had already recovered from her crushing impact; this was not an offensive profound art so it did not even do any damage to Number 5.

    Everyone was just buying time for Saintess Fang Zhenfei because they had faith in her.

    -

    -

    -

    Meanwhile Jiajia was fighting with the Deste Dragon God Longdi and she was losing her profound strength very fast.

    The Deste Dragon God haughty dered as he dissipated Jiajia''s Hundred Flower Divine Strike into nothingness with just the profound might of his cultivation strength alone!

    "There is nothing you can do against me. Whether it is profound strength, speed, evasion, profound arts, endurance, resilient... everything I have is above you."

    And faith was something that Jiajia wascking right now.

    In just a few rounds, the Deste Dragon God had soundly beaten her and had ripped away much of her profound animus. Even her profound attacks were not working against the Deste Dragon God.

    Very soon, she would lose even her 8th realm cultivation strength and could plummet to the ground.

    This battle was hopeless and nothing short of a miracle could reverse this battle.

    As for help, she knew that there would be no help from anyone, not even from the Pangu Immortals.

    She was absolutely alone and helpless.

    For the first time, she felt like weeping her heart out¡­

    The Deste Dragon God was now just toying with Saintess Fang Zhentian all this while as he mused to himself; the true gods of the Deste Divine Realm had been patiently waiting for their profound strength to consolidate until they could seal off the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm. This was to prevent any immortals from interfering. By then, even if their existences were known, everything would be toote. That was why the true gods of the Deste Divine Realm was making their daring appearances now, instead of hiding.

    However they still had to wait until the appearance of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth first which was a 10th Immortal Positioning creation. That was when many of the golden celestials and great golden celestials would be missing from the Celestial Realm as they entered it. In this way, the Celestial Realm would be even more vulberable.

    Many of the golden celestials would be going for the trials inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to obtain profound treasures and high grade spirit stones. Also, their cultivation realm would also be improved, even if they are a peaked great saint. It was because there were no perfect great saints and there were still so many cultivation levels to be improved for a sessful ascension to the Immortal Realm.

    The trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were all high trials and above, rich in profound treasures and high grade spirit stones. This was unlike the low level and risky trials in many of the Celestial Realm which opened quite frequently. That was why even though Ji Yuan was an experienced trial cultivator, he almost got nothing except for low level spirit stones from his hundreds of times in the low level trials and even got mocked by Ling Feiyue because of this.

    Although the high level trials were sometimes rewarding but they could only be opened once every few decades which was a long time but almost all the cultivators nearby would be storming for it, including the golden celestials. It was in a high trial that Ji Yuan had found Xiang Li to join him and it was also a high trial that created a chance meeting with Ling Feiyue again as well.

    "Therefore I have dered the dawn of the new Age of Darkness upon the Celestial Realm. From today onward, your divine realm will be known as the Dark Celestial Deste Realm!"

    The Deste Dragon God wasughing nonstop, "Give it up, Saintess Fang Zhenfei. If you give it up and surrender to me then I can consider sparing your friends. Or else thousands today will be buried in this ce. As for you, I won''t kill you but I will break your will and I want you to remember this day well. Your intelligence is just so and so,pared to the Great Demon God. You are simply destined to lose this game of chess. I do pity you and your fate, daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice."

    Jiajia was sweating profusely now as she swung her sword feebly, "Is there really no way for me to defeat you¡­"

    This was not a question but a desperate plead to the heavens¡­

    The Deste Dragon God smirked coldly as he shed against her sword but had suddenly plummeted her painfully in the mid-air.

    The soft and fragile body of Jiajia was suddenly crumbled by the Deste Dragon God¡­

    "In this form I am simply invincible. Even when I close my eyes, my battle instinct will take over from me. There are no one stronger in battle than me in this Celestial Divine Realm now. And in this battle form, even my profound strength isn''t slowed down by the mysticws of restriction. Therefore, I can only say, I am truly invincible."

    "So," the Deste Dragon God smirked coldly. "Nothing short of a miracle can help you now. Saintess Fang Zhenfei, are you giving up now?"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei quickly mustered all her profound strength to fly away from him but it was only because the Deste Dragon God had allowed it.

    None of her profound attacks now worked on the Deste Dragon God and she would really need a miracle now¡­

    The Deste Dragon God smirked with extreme confidence, "Nothing short of a bacsh to my cultivation core can save you now."

    Then he added with a loud roaringughter, "Unfortunately, this is impossible and for tens of thousands of years, my cultivation core has long been stabilized. Hahahaha¡­."

    Jiajia clenched her fists tightly at this bad joke. Firstly, he had given her a hope and then he destroyed the same hope; this Deste Dragon God was trulyme¡­

    As the Deste Dragon God had said that, he had suddenly shed to the Saintess Zhenfei and he was intending to p her into submission and toy his wanton hands on her. At this moment, he knew that he had already ripped apart most of her resisting profound animus so she waspletely helpless now.

    How about stripping her naked by tearing away her profound celestium dress that the Great Goddess Celestial Alice had given to her for her protection?

    And then parade her nakedness in front of all the thousands of cultivators to see and admire?

    That the holy body of the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice was free for all to see and for him to abuse?

    This would totally humte her and broke her all her willpower to resist!

    This would be fun and with this wicked n in mind, he flew in a sh toward her.

    But all of a sudden, he had frozen in mid-air; he was suddenly coughing out golden blood and was even reverting to his original form!

    Not just reverting to his original form but his cultivation realm was also dropping rapidly too!

    The Deste Dragon God was stunned; it was because there was a sudden bacsh to his cultivation core and it had cracked violently suddenly.

    This was impossible and it could not even be happening!

    All of a sudden, his cultivation core recorded a sh of memory as his emperor-step divine sword in the Bliss City was suddenly ripped to nothingness. Because he was linked to his divine sword, he had suddenly suffered a severe bacsh to his cultivation core!

    In the beginning, the three true gods of the Deste Divine Realm had all put their divine swords into the secret immortal array to power it. It was not just a simple array but it was also an array that could transform their divine swords into deity-step divine swords. Once their divine swords have achieved the deity status, they would also be transformed into True Divinities!

    And that was why they had agreed to leave their precious divine swords in Bliss City as the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is the only wondrous cultivation trial that have almost an infinity amount of cultivation resources.

    This was supposed to be their most brilliant master strokes in one of their several secret ns.

    But all of a sudden, the Deste Dragon God could feel the bacsh in his cultivation core as his precious emperor-step divine sword was destroyed instantly by an unknown power.

    There was no known force in the universe that could destroy an emperor divine sword!

    Even if the secret immortal array was destroyed, his emperor-step divine sword would actually fly back to his soul sea for him to use again.

    Jiajia was stunned; a miracle had really happened all of a sudden on this day!

    She mustered all her profound strength and delivered her Hundred Flowers Divine Strike again as a powerful wave of profound energies swept into the Deste Dragon God who was now even weaker than a great saint and he was instantly pulverized, leaving not even his cultivation core intact!

    When the Deste Dragon God had died in this manner, he could not even believe what was happening!

    Below, the Cultivation Pce Master, the Sagess Alyssa and Number 5 simply could not believe their very eyes either!

    What the hell had happened to the all-powerful Deste Dragon God Longdi?!

    Just an instant ago, he was all-powerful. In the next instant, he was reduced to nothingness!

    Jiajia did not care for any of these reasons; she had finally exhausted her 8th realm cultivation realm and she hadnded gently on the ground.

    But barely had shended, she had mustered all her profound energies again as sheunched another Hundred Flowers Divine Strike in the direction of the 13 red aura female cultivators. In the next blink of an eye, all 13 of the red aura female cultivators were also pulverized!

    She did not need to be an 8th realm cultivator to use her Hundred Flower Divine Strike.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was truly fearful now and he was shouting panicky, "Retreat! Retreat!"

    Even before the retreat was sounded, the Sagess Alyssa was already fleeing.

    Jiajia had sped to where Xue Qianxue was and she produced another Hundred Flower Divine Strike on Number 5.

    However even though her profound strike was powerful, it could only wound Number 5 and she managed to make her escape too.

    Jiajia had no more strength to chase after her enemies so she just copsed breathlessly while muttering, "What exactly has just happened?!"

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the Great Deste Divine Pce;

    The Great Demon God was having fun with the naked Goddess Mei when he was suddenly coughing out golden blood.

    This shocked the Goddess Mel and she panicky asked, "Great God, what has happened?"

    The Great Demon God shouted furiously, "Get out of here! Now!"

    Goddess Mel thought that it was she who had caused the ident and she had quickly fled, unwilling to incur the wrath of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God had sent her away because he did not want anyone to know that his cultivation core had just suffered a severe damage and he was now in his most vulnerable state.

    As the Goddess Mel was a Deste Immortal of the Immortal Divine Realm and not from his demonic race, he did not trust her at all.

 Chapter 572 Hua Xunzi

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the final trial of the 6th level.

    Ji Yuan and the short old man was walking awkwardly in front as they searched the middle part of final trial for more wondends to explore.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was feeling awkward was because he could hear Ling Feiyue gossiping softly behind him with the other maidens. And even his old master was feeling awkward as he muttered with disbelief, "Did you really say all that?"

    Now Ling Feiyue was happily telling the other maidens, "Do you know that when Little Princess and I first saw Ji Yuan on the first level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, what did he do? He actually attacked us!"

    Yang Mi was shocked while the Lovely Empress scream softly with disbelief, "Really? Seriously? Why?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "He insisted that we are his heart demons that are conjured by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and so he had attacked us!"

    Feng Minyue was also shocked, "Why didn''t you exin?"

    "I did!" Ling Feiyue stomped her foot angrily. "Then do you know what he had said?"

    Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Yun Chi and all the other maidens were all shaking their heads with disbelief.

    "He told me, I am the fake Ling Feiyue!" Ling Feiyue sighed heavily before she whispered softly. "He says he knows the real Ling Feiyue and all his women very well, clothes or no clothes. Then he insisted on ughtering me."

    When she had said that, all the maidens were muttering with great disbelief. "Did he really say that?"

    Even the short old man had turned to whispered Ji Yuan, "Little Rascal, did you really say that?!"

    Ji Yuan was feeling extremely awkward because he had really said that. So he could only lower his head and walked a bit faster.

    Little Princess was now saying to the other maidens, "When he first stepped into the Empyrean Labyrinth Warrior, he was overtly cautious so he doesn''t believe that he could meet me and Sister Ling Feiyue right after we had stepped inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    Yu Jingjing could not help asking again, "Then did he really try to ughter the two of you?"

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess both nodded at the same time as they said together, "He really did but luckily Yin Wei hade into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well. So he was too exhausted to fight uster after his fight with Yin Wei."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "That was only when I have helped him then he had a change of mind or else I would surely be ughtered by him."

    Yang Mi was shocked, "Is this the Ji Yuan that we know? How can he be so horrible?"

    Even Yun Chi was frowning, "He actually has the intentions to ughter his own consorts?"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered, "You have better believed it and he is also the killer of all the cute animals too¡­"

    Then she sighed woefully, "He has even thrown my body out of my coffin to house another too¡­ he has a totalck of respect for the dead¡­ and he can''t sleep without using me as his pillow¡­"

    The short old man was saying to Ji Yuan now, "I didn''t you that you can be so vicious. I don''t know you at all!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "If you think that this is the only weirdest thing that he has ever done, then you are really wrong. He has actually banged my little aunt behind my back too while he is at my Spirit Blue Moon Sect. And you know, they areplete strangers too."

    Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was startled, "Do you mean that Maiden Dream Mist and Ji Yuan actually¡­"

    Little Princess pointed out, "He is really good in keep secrets. We did not even know about his affair with the Water Melody Pce Shui Xisi until it was toote¡­"

    All the maidens were suddenly nodding all of a sudden in unison that something actually did manage between Ji Yuan and Maiden Dream Mist¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi giggled jovially, "Maybe he has even made a deal with the Death God Mingwang behind everyone''s back but he did not tell you."

    Ling Feiyue disyed a small frown, "Surely not¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said awkwardly, "I think you have better believe it¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng began to sigh as she looked at Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Yang Min, "Until today, I don''t even know how he got his two saint-step divine swords¡­"

    Ji Yuan had heard her and he was muttering almost incoherently: I did tell you but none of you believe me¡­

    He was beginning to miss Jiajia now but he was also sighing. While he was ying in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth here, Jiajia must be trying to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce and he was of no help to her at all...

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen as he spotted an adorable maiden in a celestial-step robe and this robe was the prize of the Bliss City arena final trial.

    He had of course recognized her as Hua Xunzi.

    The short old man and all the maidens in his group had all spotted her as well.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You are looking for me?"

    Hua Xunzi smiled wryly as she pointed to the maiden in ck behind and she was Little Princess, "I''m looking for her and she seems to be an old friend of mine."

    The short old man snorted coldly but he did not attack her even though he knew that she was from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Instead, he turned to Ji Yuan to say, "Little rascal, you are a little too shameless. She didn''te to look for you."

    Little Princess took a look at the short old man as she shed alone to talk to Hua Xunzi.

    Hua Xunzi actually did not dare to approach Ji Yuan''s group and she had maintained a safe distance. If anything goes wrong, she would run immediately.

    Little Princess had shed next to her and asked her, "Why are you looking for me?"

    Hua Xunzi said immediately, "Third Citadel Mistress, I dare not approach you while you are in your group but why didn''t you look for me while in Bliss City? I really can''t resist it anymore so I am forced to make contact with you."

    The light mood that was on Little Princess hadpletely disappeared now as she said enchantingly, "I am no longer your Third Citadel Mistress. I have disbanded everyone in my sphere of influence. And that includes you. You are now free to go."

    Hua Xunzi was shocked, "But why? I am your mole in my celestial n¡­ if my Citadel Mistress requires the resources to rebuild our citadel again, we can start off with my celestial n¡­"

    Little Princess sighed, "From now on, I am the enemy of the Evil Cultivation Pce. So stay away from me as far as you can."

    Hua Xunzi was stammering in bewilderment, "Then we can make a breakaway dark celestial n. There is no need to drive me away? Or is it because Citadel Mistress wishes to convert the maidens in your group and this is such a bad timing for me to appear? I can help you too."

    "Hua Xunzi," Little Princess said firmly, "Go and tell all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of my Third Citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce to go in peace. If you still think of me as your Citadel Mistress then give up your evil ways and kill all the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce for me!"

 Chapter 573 No Praise To Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan and his group could only see that Little Princess and Hua Xunzi seemed to be talking for a while and it appeared to be quite emotional.

    Then finally with a most reluctant look that was cast upon Little Princess, Han Xunzi had suddenly taken flight and she had disappeared in the vast mountains of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The jovial mood of the party was also affected by this encounter.

    Soon Little Princess was back with a mesmerizing smile as she was disyed a dazzling look at everyone who was looking her way.

    Ji Yuan could not contain his curiosity, "What is it?"

    Little Princess answered nonchntly, "Although my Third Citadel was destroyed in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, there are actually still severalworks of mine throughout the rest of the Celestial Realm. The purpose is to avoid bringing all the attention to the Deste Celestial Fraternity on the real whereabouts of the Evil Cultivation Pce and is also for us to collect intelligence on the rest of the celestial fraternities."

    "Some of them did not even know that my Third Citadel is no longer around. As you know, the loyalties of the evil cultivators are foremost to the Citadel Lords when they are under our directmand, rather than with the Evil Cultivation Pce. In a way, she is directly under mymand. However just now I''ve released her from mymand. Whether she has really decided to change her ways, it is none of my business now."

    Ji Yuan was actually curious about her Ultimate Evil Veins but as he did not want Little Princess to be troubled more than necessary, he did not ask her about it.

    After all, he loves her with all his heart.

    Whether she is good or evil, is it really that important?

    Ji Yuan just shrugged it away with a loudugh, "We are just curious who you are talking with. But it is really an unimportant matter. I''ve got a much worse reputation than my Little Princess. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, all the maidens, including Little Princess was all softlyughing jovially together.

    It was because Ji Yuan indeed had the most horrible reputation in their eyes.

    The short old man took a look at Little Princess before he took another look at the Smiling Divine Maiden who was also his daughter Chu Lixue, "Actually what is evil, what is good? As long as they are willing to change, we should give them a chance to repent¡­"

    With that, he shouted loudly. "Let''s go Little Rascal Ji Yuan!"

    "Actually," Ji Yuan protested after him. "My nick isn''t little rascal. I am your grand daddy, you know."

    The short old man snorted coldly before giving him a strong kick, "Have you defeat your old man yet? How dare you im to be my grand daddy! You are not even qualified to call me big daddy even! Moreover¡­"

    He turned to look at Yang Mi and Chu Lixue with a badass grin, "You are soon going to beg me to call me your big daddy, haha!"

    When the short old man had said that, Yang Mi and Chu Lixue were flustered with great shyness but there was also a hint of interesting anticipations in their golden eyes¡­

    As for Ji Yuan, he wasughing away awkwardly. "Right, right¡­"

    In order to bang the Smiling Divine Maiden, I can even call you my ancestor too. Haha¡­

    The short old man chuckled before saying, "But for now, make sure your fingers are clean until you can officially take them as your consorts. I will be watching you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was protesting weakly, "Old man, do you really think that I am this sort of a person?"

    When he had just finished, all the maidens in his group and the short old man were all echoing loudly to him, "Yes, you are definitely that sort of a person."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed it off quickly, "You know we are at the start of the middle final trial, right? And we still got some way to go before we can reach the upper frontier of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. So instead of gossiping against one another, we should put all gossips aside and be united as a single party¡­"

    "Ahem," the short old man had suddenly interrupted him. "You are wrong on this for sure."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What?"

    The short old manughed aloud, "They are only gossiping against you and not against one another."

    All the maidens were nowughing nonstop, "That''s right. We are only gossiping against one person and his name is Ji Yuan."

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she turned to the other maidens, "Shall I tell you the time that he took an alias by calling himself Yuan Ji?"

    Yun Chi frowned, "Ji Yuan, Yuan Ji? Who the dumb fool that can fall for this name?"

    All the maidens wereughing jovially together¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "I am the one with two saintly step swords, none of you here have one and cannot bepared to me¡­"

    Xiang Li was giggling in his soul sea: Actually, Big Brother, without me to get you Anyang, it is impossible for you to get two saintly divine swords. Heehee. So, you should thank me instead.

    Anyang was smiling with great delight: Without my aid, you may already have died a dozen times by now. Luckily, you have your Fairy Anyang here to be your ever helpful spirit entity heh!"

    She was especially delighted recently because she had not expected to see the Great Beyond Goddess in real life as all spirit entities were subjected to the spiritualws that were weaved by the Great Beyond Goddess. To her, it was like seeing an idol.

    This had convinced Fairy Anyang Xiahou that she had indeed served the right master.

    However, for some unknown reasons or due to the spiritualws that were weaved within Xiang Li, anything rted to Wish, the Goddess Tear, Great Beyond Goddess and Xiang Li''s purpose, she could not remember.

    Another delightful thing was that when the Great Beyond Goddess had destroyed the two emperor-step divine swords, Ji Yuan''s two saintly divine swords were actually absorbing their profound energies. This could mean that Xiang Li and she could have a chance to grow into an emperor-step divine swords in the future!

    As she delightfully dreamed of a higher existence, she had turned to look at Xiang Li with a soft chuckle.

    Xiang Li was alsoughing yfully before she asked suddenly: Hmm, I wonder what Maiden Dream Mist is doing now and where did she go? That day she is so awesome and she has destroyed the secret immortal array¡­

    Anyang was suddenly shocked; Xiang Li could remember the incident that day? And she had called the Great Beyond Goddess, Maiden Dream Mist instead?

    The real Great Beyond Goddess had awakened from her slumber and she was still thinking about her first lie that she had made and that was to swear in her own name that she was simply just Ji Yuan''s spirit entity.

    This had caused her to have suffered a minor bacsh and she was looking to cultivate back the loss.

    But her cultivation realm did not suffer at all as though some powers had prevented it from being a lie.

    All of a sudden she was startled as she started to drawn upon her infinity wisdom of cultivation to investigate the reason, "It is Xiang Li?!"

 Chapter 574 The Yang Invincible Profound Sword Art

    Ji Yuan and his group was now taking a short break while the short old man scouted the mountains ahead for new wondends.

    The short old man had quickly realized that he was a light bulb hence he had scouted ahead; the maidens in the group were actually all Ji Yuan''s beloveds.

    However Ji Yuan was not someone who could be idle so he had started to practise the Yang Invincible Sword Profound Art.

    Now practicing the Yang Invincible Sword Profound Art would not cause his face to turn red and that was the main reason why he was practising it in front of the maidens.

    Also the Yang Invincible Internal Profound Art was an internal profound art and it was harder for Ji Yuan to cultivate in the first ce.

    Ji Yuan expertise was in his sword skills and not in his internal profound arts at which he got almost none to speak of anyway.

    Now among the maidens, many of them were also sword practitioners like Ling Feiyue, Yun Chi and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue took a look at the new swordy that Ji Yuan was practising and she was sighing, "So this is the sword art that my father has refused to impart to me. It is indeed a strong sword art."

    Yang Mi was smiling too. However she had no interest in the sword art of her father as she had long left for another celestial n.

    Ling Feiyue was curious about this new sword art that seemed to carry a stronger profound power butcked the usual speed of Ji Yuan''s usual swordy.

    "The most intricate part of a swordy is its secret intricate heart form. Without this secret intricate heart form, even if our lord shows this sword art to us, it is quite hard for us to fathom its profoud mysteries."

    All the maidens were nodding in agreement and they were just being appreciative of the sword art that was being disyed in front of them.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard them and he wasughing out loud, "Since my old man is not here, i don''t mind sharing the secret heart intricate form of this sword art with all of you. After all, you are all my consorts. Haha..."

    Many of the maidens were flushing now when Ji Yuan had said that.

    Ji Yuan began to recite the secret heart intricate form.

    "All profound energies of my Yang Invincible Profound Arte from the yang primeval energies..."

    "All profound energies of the yang primeval energiese from the bottom..."

    "It can be discharged like roaring dragon primeval yang waters to cover your opponents..."

    "Drenching them wet, disabling their resistances, forcing them to submit to your wills..."

    Ji Yuanughed, "This is only the first part. Next is the stances like Disabling the Lotus Stance, Riding the Bitch, Submitting the Flushing..."

    Ling Feiyue had immediately interrupted and she was flushing, "That is enough now, my lord. Please stop immediately."

    Ji Yuan growled with great perplexation, "What is wrong?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also flustered, "I can see why my old man refuses to teach me his secret sword arts now..."

    "Me too." Yang Mi hung her head awkwardly as she agreed.

    Yun Chi could not believe what she was hearing, "This is your Yang Invincible Profound Sword Art? Why is it so lewd?!"

    Feng Minyue said weakly, "This is a lewd swordy..."

    Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng andZhi Jiugong were nodding as they agreed with the conclusion by Feng Minyue.

    The Lovely Empress giggled as though it was the fun thing that was ever said, "Ji Yuan is actually practising such a lewd swordy..."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "How is it lewd? Care to exin?"

    All the maidens echoed at once, "Everything about this sword art of yours is lewd!!!"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ....

    -

    -

    -

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Exactly on the same day as Ji Yuan and many days after the death of the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    Today was the day that the Evil Cultivation Master, the Sagess Alyssa and Number 5 had brought back the heretic cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    They were all bowing with their backs facing the ground and they were trembling with fear in front of the Great Demon God and the Goddess Mel.

    The Evil Cultivation Master said in his trembling old voice, "We... really didn''t expect that the Deste Dragon God to lose to Saintess Fang Zhenfei. Save for Number 5, we have also lost Number 21 to 33..."

    The Great Demon God had a most fearsome countenance now as he interrupted in his deep voice.

    "Enough! Days before you have returned, I haveknown that the Deste Dragon God is already dead."

    The Evil Cultivation Pce, the Sagess Alyss and Number 5 were all startled.

    They had taken days to prepare for the attack on the Eons Firmament Mountains and also days to return. So how could the Great Demon God know of their defeat and the death of the Deste Dragon God so readily?

    The Great Demon God said coldly, "Under this heavens, it is impossible for the Deste Dragon God to be defeated. He is like my open sword while the Great God of Death is my hidden sword. With hisdemise, it is as though I have lost my able sword arm."

    Then he tossed his wine goblet on the ground, "Even if Saintess Fang Zhenfei hit him directly with her most powerful immortal profound attack, the Deste Dragon God won''t even be affected much for he has the best demonic physique of our n..."

    The Evil Cultivation Master, the Sagess Alyssa and Number 5 trembled even harder when they had heard the Great Demon God, as they did not know why their Great God had gone off topic instead of punishing them directly.

    The Great Demon God continued coldly, "During the battle, he must have consumed plenty of his profound strength from his cultivation core so when he had suddenly received a bacsh, he was punished even more severely and his cultivation realm must have gone down quite rapidly. Because of this reason, he was killed instantly by Saintess Fang Zhenfei. What a horrible death to happen to a Great God like the Deste Deste God..."

    "And even me, is not spared from this bacsh to our cultivation realm. As I am not inbat at that time, I am able to use my profound strength to suppress the worse of this severe bacsh..."

    "However even for a Great God like me, I still sacrifice some immortal cultivators to be sacrificed for my attainment..."

    When he had said to this point, the Evil Cultivation Master had broken into cold sweat!

    It was because he had already given up some of his immortal attainment to the the Sagess Mel to help her attained as an immortal goddess, hence her title now was the Goddess Mel.

    Number 5 and the Sagess Alyssa were also sweating profusely because they knew that the Great Demon God had the ungodly demonic profound power to drain cultivation attainments and to transfer it.

    The Great Demon God saw their terrified look and he was smirked coldly, "Due to the timing of the bacsh, I have no choice but to sacrifice Number 11 to 20 to preserve the bulk of my cultivation realm."

    Number 5 was horrified; Number 11 to 20 were sacrificed?! There were two close sisters in Number 11 and Number 19...

    The Great Demon God said nonchntly, "For now until my full recovery, we shall lie low for a chance. Once the Great God of Death the Death God Mingwang is back, we will wipe out the celestials."

    The Sagess Alysaa asked shakingly, "We will not capture the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and Xue Quanxue from now?"

    "Consider it a short 1 month of peace for them." The Great Demon God answered.

    The Goddess Mel was startled that the Great Demon God was injured so she quickly asked. "Then is the seal still working?"

    She was naturally referring to the deste seal that sealed off the Immortal Divine Realm from the Celestial Divine Realm. This required the profound power of the Great Demon God to maintain from time to time. That was why the Great Demon God was unable to leave the Great Deste Divine Pce for long.

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly, "Thanks to the heroic sacrifices of Number 11 to 20, I will still be able to maintain the seal."

 Chapter 575 Aftermath In The Mt. Eons Firmament

    Eons Firmament Mountains.

    Dayster, the number of deaths had continued to climb due to aggravated injuries from the wounded cultivators

    There were more than 3000 casualties that had been incurred after the attack by the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Deste Dragon Lord Longdi.

    More than 300 golden celestials had also perished. Although the majority of them were the 5th realm golden celestials but it was a terrible grievous loss; it was because some of them had the potential to attain as a 6th and 7th golden celestials in the future.

    As for the deaths of the 6th and 7th golden celestials, it was a terrible loss to all the defending celestial ns.

    Diviner Mo Ming was sighing as the Mo n had lost more than 1/3 of its great celestials. He was now wishing that Mo Bei and some of his more powerful elders would be in the Eons Firmament Mountains now.

    Although Mo Bei looked weak most of the time, he was actually a great saint and he could actually fight better than most if his peers. His only w was that sometimes he was too hot temper and he was too simple minded.

    However, it was to Mo Bei that Diviner Mo Ming had the intention to pass the leadership of the Mo n to him in the future.

    As Mo Bei was a little too anti-social and had no consorts until now, Diviner Mo Ming was anxious for him and he had even asked him to try his best to befriend Ji Yuan.

    It was because Ji Yuan was the link that could help him connect to many of the powerhouses of the Deste Celestial Fraternity as many of Ji Yuan''s consorts were important great celestials or golden celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan also had an immortal-step divine sword (which had now been upgraded to a saintly divine sword inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth).

    Also, Diviner Mo Ming had actually known Saintess Fang Zhenfei for a long time but he had pretended not to know her in front of Ji Yuan.

    Someone as powerful as Mo Ming in the profound art of divination would naturally find out that Saintess Fang Zhenfei had the most unusual destiny.

    Therefore, Jiajia as the Saintess Fang Zhenfei as well the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce did not keep her identity a secret from Diviner Mo Ming.

    And Diviner Mo Ming also did not tell anyone else that Saintess Fang Zhenfei was actually the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    In fact, after she had defeated the Deste Dragon God Longdi, all the cultivators had actually thought that it was impressive that the Saintess Fang Zhenfei from the smallest major orthodox n the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect would be such an impressive lofty cultivator in secret!

    In fact, after this victorious battle, many of the surviving cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity were now thinking that the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect would actually be the most powerful celestial n in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    For the majority of the cultivators from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, they were equally surprised as well; other than Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue who knew about Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s true identity, no one else know of Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s dual identity.

    While everyone was still celebrating over this hard-earned victory, Jiajia was feeling lost in the secret guest chamber of the Mo n.

    She was apanied by Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue who had almost never left her side unless they were given a special mission such as the one that required them to follow Ji Yuan in the past.

    Hua Baiyue was intrigued as she said in her petite voice, "Mistress, what''s wrong with you nowadays? Did we not win this battle and has killed the Deste Dragon God Longdi?"

    "That is right!" Hua Wuwu smiled as she quickly added.

    Jiajia looked nkly at them and said with great mncholy, "Did I really do it right? I feel so weak and helpless fighting the Deste Dragon God alone. I just couldn''t win against him until his cultivation realms were suddenly dropping rapidly. Do you know how helpless that I had felt at that time? That he would strip me naked in front of tens of thousands of cultivators presented and I could not do anything to oppose his intentions?"

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were suddenly stunned at the woeful expression of their mistress who had never shown this side of hers.

    "I''m not a smart as everyone think I am and I''ve made many errors in my calctions." Jiajia began to weep softly as she gave a recounting of her battle with the Deste Dragon God Longdi. "I don''t even know what had happened to the Deste Dragon God and what caused the drop in his cultivation realms all of a sudden¡­"

    At that time the Deste Dragon God Longdi was OP and he had even taunted her about the invincibility in his draconian form.

    She knew that the Deste Dragon God Longdi was merely toying with her until she had exhausted her profound strength. Once she hadpletely exhausted her profound strength then he would then take her and y with her like a puppet.

    For the very first time, she was fearful of the future.

    Jiajia said woefully and her tears dropped to the ground, "That cultivator called Number 5 isn''t a celestial like us but she is from the demonic race. Just like the deste beasts, they are stronger than us at the same cultivation realm level due to their superior racial traits. If there is a Number 5, then there are Number 4 to Number 1 as well."

    Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu were quiet; it was because their mistress was rarely wrong in her analysis.

    Jiajia trembled as she continued, "If it isn''t for that fateful battle, we would never know how many celestial ns, whether orthodox and unorthodox are with the Evil Cultivation Pce. Now we know and it is not just a few¡­"

    "I just don''t understand," Hua Wuwu could not fight back her tears when she saw the state that her mistress was in. "Where did the Evil Cultivation Pce get its great wealth from? Surely they need to have plenty of cultivation resources in order to bribe so many of the celestial ns?"

    Hua Baiyue nodded with her trembling voice and she too, was sorrowful when she saw that her mistress was so sad now. "The Evil Cultivation Pce have no ess to the rich spiritual mountains and is amon enemy to be eradicated by both the orthodox and unorthodox celestial ns. Why is that we can never finish them off even after hundreds of years? Why are so many cultivators still willing to join the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Jiajia quietly said, "They are a secret organization for thousands of years. We are merely hundreds of years. For a dark power like the Great Demon God who can united the Deste Dragon God and the Death God to his banner, his dark powers cannot be estimated. As for the wealth of the Evil Cultivation Pce, I really do not know where it ising from."

    The Evil Cultivation Pce had many elders and thousands of heretic cultivators, supporting even the three Dark Citadels of the Evil Cultivation Pce as well. Such arge sect would naturally require an unimaginable amount of spirit stones to support the cultivation of its heretic cultivators.

    They did not know that Great Demon God had been mining the rich profound wealth of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth every 500 years to support the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    In the Evil Cultivation Pce, the Great Demon God had created a contribution point system for the heretic cultivators for them to exchange for high grade spirit stones and profound treasures. It was a system that worked very well.

    Hua Baiyue asked quietly, "If one Deste Dragon God is already so strong, how can we hope to win against the Death God Mingwang and the Great Demon God Hong Meng?"

    Jiajia was quiet too; it was because she really did not know how to even defeat the Great Demon God now.

    Even when she knows where their hideout is, it is still impossible for her to storm it.

    Only by killing the Great Demon God can the forbidden seal that severe the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm be removed.

    "I am betting this." Hua Wuwu tried to force a smile on her mistress'' countenance, "That the Deste Dragon God must be too haughty and that was why he was suddenly struck by a divine cmity that only affected his soul sea. In that case, then it was not surprising that we could not see it. Hence, that was why his cultivation core was suddenly devastated and this had suddenly affected his cultivation realms."

    "I second this." Bai Baiyue was nodding with a forceful smile. She had wanted her mistress to be happy as well. "I bet that the Great Demon God would be struck by a divine cmity to his soul sea as well if he dares to fight with our mistress!"

    Jiajia knew that they were only trying to make her happy so she just nodded quietly¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere in the Mo n.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had grown closer to Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin now. She knew that they had risked their lives for her and had mustered all their profound strength to fight alongside with her.

    Han Yuchi smiled, "It is nothing. We are all from the same celestial n anyway."

    Zhao Songjin told Xue Qianxue, "I am your right protector now. So, it is only natural that I will do all my best to protect you."

    That battle had also brought Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and Shui Qingqing closer to Xue Qianxue, Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin.

    Han Yuchi had reprimanded Shui Qingqing gently after the battle with the Deste Dragon God, "You are a sect leader as well as the Pce Mistress of the Water Melody Pce, one of the three consecrated forbidden ces in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. You shouldn''t risk yourself."

    But Shui Qingqingughed it off with an innocent look, "I have only one mother, right? You are my mother consort so I have toe to your rescue. Moreover, I am also aiding the friends of Ji Yuan."

    Han Yuchi was startled that she actually could have such a sensible daughter in Shui Qingqing.

    As for Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and Xue Qianxue, they also got to know Shui Qingqing better than before now. After all they had all been through a life and death battle versus the all-powerful Number 5.

 Chapter 576 The Wonderland Of The Unwavering Monument (1)

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth 6th level, in the middlends of the final trial.

    Ji Yuan and his group was still casually wandering the mountain trails to look for the next wondend.

    The only person that was not here was the short old man or the White Sword Monarch which was Ji Yuan''s old master.

    Ji Yuan was still sore that none of the maidens seemed to be interested in his Yang Invincible Profound Sword Art. After all, this was his old master best sword art.

    They hadmented that his swordy was a lewd swordy instead!

    Even the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Yang Mi were not interested in the Yang Invincible Profound Sword Art anymore.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had said with a heavy sigh, "All these years, I have always thought that this sword art is such a top epitome sword art and I have coveted it but he has always refused to teach it to me. Today I have finally know of the reason why¡­"

    Yang Mi had also said, "This is such a lewd swordy! My big daddy is such a bad influence on Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan was frowning to himself: I don''t see anything lewd about this swordy. I didn''t even point the de or the handle at them. It is them who are lewd and not my swordy¡­"

    But this was not the main reason why today he was walking alone and ahead of everyone.

    It was because Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had told the other maidens that it was Ji Yuan''s house rule that forbidden them to wear any undies below.

    Imagine the great ruckus when the other maidens had heard this from Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing!

    "Jingjing, Yang Mi! And you have really believed him?"

    "Do you know that he has been practicing a most lewd swordy now?"

    "He really said that? Ji Yuan must be courting his own death!"

    "Listen, Sisters Jingjing and Yang Mi are our close sisters so we must right their injustices for them. Let''s ignore Ji Yuan from now onward!"

    "Jingjing and Yang Mi, do you know that Ji Yuan has been bullying you?!"

    "He must have purposely taken advantage of our poor Jingjing and Yang Mi here¡­"

    "Just like he did with our new sisters Zhi Jiugong, Lu Jiangsu and Chu Lixue here!"

    "I like to see who he dares to bully next¡­"

    "Stripped him naked and throw him down the mountains for a few days?"

    Ji Yuan was extremely awkward when he had heard the maidens, especially when his misdeeds had been discovered. Actually, it was only a tease to Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing but he did not expect that they would believe him and had stopped wearing any panties.

    And now, after traveling for three days in the mountains in search of a new wondend, all the maidens were suddenly so close inpanion together, united by their burning hatred toward Ji Yuan and his ridiculous antics.

    And so it was then that Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had identally told the rest of the maidens about Ji Yuan''s rule when they noticed that some of the other maidens were actually wearing such short skirts that exposed their panties. This caused all the other maidens to be infuriated by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was surprised that even Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Feng Minyue were not even standing by his side when he was besieged by all the other maidens.

    He had suddenly be themon enemy of all the maidens that were in the group, save for the short old man. And if the short old man happens to know that he had been bullying his Yang Mi, he would be then be themon enemy of the entire group instead of just the maidens in the group.

    As Ji Yuan was now so lonely, he began to randomly say, "s, it will be so great if someone is able to fly over the mountains to check for a new wondend? This will definitely save us plenty of precious time instead of wandering around."

    He was actually referring to Yun Chi who could fly.

    But he also knew that this was an only a tease as she could not reveal her identity.

    Yun Chi chuckled back from behind, "Ji Yuan, why don''t you use your extraordinary spirit animus to fly up the mountains? Maybe this will help us in our search for the new wondends?"

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently in return, "You know my spirit animus is not capable of real flight, do you? And it is so wasteful to consume my spirit force just like this. Do you really want to kill me when we encounter a most dangerous foe?"

    He was beginning to miss his Jiajia who was never free to rebuke him. And there was a look of guilt that was overwhelming him. Once again, he was musing how useless he was to her because he could never be able to help her one way or another. Instead, he was just ''having fun'' inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan naturally did not know that he had been a major help to Jiajia when their group had contributed to the destruction of the secret immortal array. Although it was Maiden Dream Mist that had destroyed the two emperor-step divine swords and had grievously injured both the Deste Dragon God and the Great Demon God but this was his destiny that led to this event.

    If Ji Yuan had not insisted on following Yun Chi to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind, then this ''destined event'' would not have happened.

    Ji Yuan began to sigh heavily when he had thought of how useless he had been and his heavy sighs were heard by all the maidens in his group, "I wonder how formidable the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God is? Can we even hope to defeat them?"

    Yun Chi answered nonchntly, "This is something that I have heard¡­"

    This was a lie of course since she did not want to tell anyone else other than Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress that she was actually the Death God Mingwang and that she had actually wanted to kill Ji Yuan in the past.

    "In terms ofbat ability, the Deste Dragon God is actually the strongest. Next is the Great Demon God due to his ability to regenerate and he can even regain his expended profound strength much faster than anyone. Third in ce is the Death God."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly when he had overheard Yun Chi, "So you mean that the Evil Cultivation Pce has sent their weakest true god against us?"

    Yun Chiughed jovially, "Yes and no. While all three true gods all have their own trump cards but they were all reluctant to use in a realbat. But if they were to fight briefly, this is actually their power ranking."

    Ji Yuan asked again to rify, "You mean that the Deste Dragon God is actually the strongest of the three true gods? Seriously? Stronger than even the Great Demon God?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "You have seen how strong the demonic cultivators from the Dragon Faction are after they had transformed into their draconian form, right? When the Deste Dragon God takes the form of his true draconian form, he is invincible in battle. It is said that even if he hit by a 9th rank profound art, he still won''t be able to take any damage because he is constantly radiating strong life force that can negate profound attacks. Unless you are also a 9th rank peak immortal cultivator, basically you have no chance to win against him. Even if he can''t use his 8th and 9th profound arts, it doesn''t matter to him because he can still rip everyone with his bare hands. That is actually how strong they are."

    Feng Minyue had suddenly interrupted as she looked at Yun Chi, "And how do you know all these? It isn''t something that any cultivators would actually know."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed her usual faint smile, "This is not unusual. I have told Maiden Yun Chi while she was in Bliss City."

    "That is right!" the Lovely Empress was giggling too. "This is not unusual at all."

    Yun Chi smiled even more wryly, "And I can tell you my true mission now and that is, I am here inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to kill or to foil the Death God Mingwang. In a way, after giving my best to persuade these three sisters, they have finally decided to betray the Death God Mingwang."

    The three sisters naturally refer to the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes; she can really lie about killing herself without battling her eyelids...

    This assured Feng Minyue a little as she answered, "I see now."

    Ji Yuan however was frowning with a deep sigh, "Then Jiajia and the rest may be in deep trouble outside¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled, "They probably have other ns for the next month or so. So, your Jiajia may be still safe."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Why do you say so?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "This is probably just my instinct, of course."

    It was because she knew that the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God would have a really severe bacsh. The recovery of the Great Demon God would probably be much faster.

    Now if she was not pregnant, this was a most excellent opportunities to attack the Great Demon God when he was down.

    Unfortunately, all three of the true gods were not at their peak at the moment.

    Zhi Jiugong tried to change the topic by saying, "The demonic races is not a single race. The Deste Dragon Godmands the draconian races while the Great Demon Godmands the dark elven race. As for the Death God, hemands the deste angels¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly interrupted, "The deste angels? Really? I have fought one previously and it is a 9th rank deste cherubim¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong chuckled, "Didn''t you realize yet that we all have an angel animus? I have two actually. One is my angel animus and the other is my Holy Oracle Goddess spirit animus. The Death God has the ability tomand any deste angels to surrender their artefact cores to merge with the cultivator. It is said that he is actually the Ultimate Dark Angel of Death."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at Yun Chi: Erm, does this mean that my spirit animus actuallyes from Yun Chi instead of my own good luck?

    Yun Chi smiled wryly as she looked at Ji Yuan silently: Now you know, idiot!"

    At this time, the short old man had suddenly returned from the mountains and he was shouting joyously. "I have found the next wondend! And this is something really good! Hahahaha¡­"

 Chapter 577 The Wonderland Of The Unwavering Monument (2)

    The short old man was proudly telling Ji Yuan and his group, "This is a most wonderful wondend and is called the Wondend of the Unwavering Monument. Best of all, it is quite safe and is not abat trial. Also, we can even improve upon our profound arts in this ce!"

    Ji Yuan was delighted as heughed, "Then I am going to restore my reputation and to show everyone how awesome I am by being the top cultivator in that wondend! Haha..."

    The short old man frowned, "When is thest time that you are the top cultivator in a trial?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "I am always top but not recently. It just happens that you are not around to witness my awesomeness, that''s why.""

    He began to frown as he pondered with displeasure, "I did remember I was top in the Trial of Righteousness. But I can''t remember getting a thing from that trial¡­"

    That was because the Great Beyond Goddess had taken his reward but as the reward was not something that could help Ji Yuan, she had kept quiet about it. Instead, she had changed the reward by helping Ji Yuan discreetly instead. Because the Great Beyond Goddess could not help directly without a reason, she had taken Ji Yuan''s reward. In a way, this was her best reward for Ji Yuan.

    The short old man asked Ji Yuan quietly by whispering to him, "Howe these maidens are not happy when I have returned? And I seem to notice a look of despise in their eyes when they are looking at me? Even my two daughters are looking at me weirdly as though I am a pervert."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he answered quietly, "They are also giving me the same look, didn''t you notice it as well?"

    The short old man pondered for a while, "You are right. But why is that so?"

    Ji Yuan hastily thought of an excuse, "Well, they are afraid, that is why. After all, we are so deep inside thest level of the final trial now. Their hearts are not as strong as us. After all, we both have our saintly divine swords but they do not have any¡­ haha¡­"

    The short old manughed too, "Hahahaha¡­ so that''s the reason. But now I am back, I will definitely protect your beloveds for you, especially Maiden Yun Chi. Hahahaha¡­"

    After some time, their group had finally reached the next wondend and the name of this wondend was the Wondend of the Unwavering Monument.

    A gigantic ridge cliff measuring 600m high stood in front of them and below were the deste mists.

    The instant that they had arrived at this wondend, they could feel immerse pressure radiating from the towering ridge cliff in front of them. Nearly 600 cultivators could be seen in deep meditation all over the ce; the closer they were to the ridge, the better was their Daoprehension!

    The short old man immediately said to Ji Yuan and his group with augh, "Did you notice the immerse pressure of this ce? This ce will be most helpful to our internal profound arts. The closer that we are to that ridge cliff, the more powerful our internal profound arts will be strengthened in understandings. Even your Yang Invincible Body Profound Art would be improved by this Daoprehension!"

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he chuckled aloud, "This is great news! So what are we waiting for? I can''t wait to let everyone see how awesome I am in this ce, haha! Watch me old man as I make perfect my understanding of the Yang Invincible Body Art, haha! I love this type of trial the best! Simple and direct!"

    There were 600 steps to the ridge cliff.

    For the first 200 steps, there were only 69 cultivators. And most of the cultivators were between the 201-400 steps.

    The cultivators that were within the first 100 steps all had formidable profound defenses or internal profound arts and they just numbered 33 of them.

    Ji Yuan''s group was a big one so many of the cultivators that were in the vicinity had already sensed their approaches with their divine sense. When they saw that it was merely a group of 10 maidens and 2 male cultivators, many of the cultivators were actuallyughing secretly in their hearts; it was because usually a big group means that they were weaker than the others hence there was a need for alliance. Moreover many of the cultivators were males and they had looked down upon the female cultivators.

    The short old man had suddenly disyed his profound aura with his Yang Invincible Body Profound Art and he had calmly walked to the 555 steps which was his limit before he was forced to meditate for his next step.

    He was now sweating profusely and had to stop.

    This was really impressive!

    It was actually not easy for the short old man.

    In fact when he was at the 400 steps, the great pressure was already slowing him down and he had to use plenty of his profound strength to resist the great pressure from the ridge.

    By the 450 steps, he could feel that his legs were trembling!

    By the 500 steps, he was just using his willpower and all his profound strength!

    At the 555 steps, he was forced to stop as he copsed onto the ground in a meditation posture. This was his absolute limit!

    Even Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were at the 440 and 344 respectively!

    Ling Feiyue was able to reach the 510 steps. Her internal and external profound arts were both top notched!

    Little Princess was also among the top cultivators and she was at the 513 steps.

    Feng Minyue was at the 530 steps!

    Zhi Jiugong had also reached the 530 steps and she was quite startled that a frail maiden like Feng Minyue was actually her peer.

    Feng Minyue saw that Zhi Jiugong was surprised, so she smiled to her. "My internal profound art may be better than yours. But your spirit profound arts are definitely superior to mine."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was at the 501 steps.

    The lovely Empress was at the 488 steps.

    Every step difference was actually a huge power disparity and could not be ovee easily.

    As the short old man was at the 555 steps, he was naturally the first and the most powerful cultivator.

    And he was now smiling to himself: I am so awesome.

    All the 600 cultivators presented were suddenly impressed by this new group and there were loud mutterings.

    "Most are of them have actually made it to the first 200 steps. They are actually quite formidable. Don''t tell me that they are mostly golden saints or even great saints from the powerful celestial influences?"

    "I was blind¡­"

    "They are all so impressive¡­"

    "Wait, look!"

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng had walked to the 600 steps and was meditating in front of the ridge cliff!

    "Did you see that? Someone has actually reached the end of the ridge!"

    "Who is she? She is so impressive¡­"

    "I don''t believe it¡­"

    Even the short old man was dumbfounded by it.

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had also walked past the short old man with a wry smile as she said, "This isn''t so hard after all."

    And she had seated herself next to Bai Qianfeng.

    "Did you see that?!"

    "There are now two cultivators that have reached the end of the ridge now¡­"

    "This is impossible right?"

    "How formidable are they?"

    Once again the short old man was dumbfounded when he saw that Maiden Yun Chi had overtaken him to reach the end of the ridge in such an effortless manner.

    "Look there is one more¡­"

    "He seems to be thest and he is at the 55 steps¡­"

    "I don''t think he is in their group¡­"

    "Yea, he probably meets them halfway and join them for protection so that he can reach this wondend¡­"

    "Agree. He is so weak and is also thest¡­"

    Ji Yuan was indeed thest and his dream of being awesomeness was bust in this ce. So he had a most ugly look on his face as he was forced to meditate to improve upon the strength of his internal profound art.

    A golden celestial was meditating slightly in front of him at the 56 step and he had turned around tofort Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry brother. One of these days, we will definitely reach the 400th step."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Not the 600th step?"

    The golden celestialughed, "It seems impossible for me. So 400th step is my goal. So what is your goal?"

    Ji Yuan frowned before he answered, "The 100 steps."

    The golden celestial: ¡­

    "That is indeed the most impressive goal ever¡­"

    "You know fellow brother cultivator," The golden celestial smiled. "Even though I am just a 5th realm middle tier cultivator but thews of the Empyrean are really fair. We have the most recovery to offset the imbnce between the great saints and us. In this way, we have a better fighting chance against these great saints who cannot use their profound arts to kill us so easily. If we cannot beat them, we can always try to outrun them in a fight. Speaking of this, we seem to be around the same cultivation realm so I am just wondering what your current cultivation realm is?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes before he answered awkwardly, "Peaked Great Saint Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    This was the most embarrassing line that a MC would ever say in a cultivation story to an inferior and now it was spoken by Ji Yuan.

    The golden celestial: ¡­

    The golden celestial: ¡­

    The golden celestial: ¡­

 Chapter 578 The Wonderland Of The Unwavering Monument (3)

    By consensus, Ji Yuan had made an agreement with his group not to stay in a ce longer than 5 days.

    But by the end of 3 days, he really had an ugly look.

    He had moved forward by 2 little steps while the golden celestial in front of him had moved by 4 steps.

    The golden celestial stared at Ji Yuan and asked him, "Are you sure that you are really a great saint?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You want to try me?"

    The golden celestial immediately kept quiet.

    Ji Yuan pped his forehead with great awkwardness. If it was not for the Yang Invincible Body Art, he would have got an even worse result.

    The golden celestial asked him, "Are you sure that you are alright? Why is that your face is so red?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly answered, "I am not upset with you. It is due to the effect of my internal profound art. Before I can fully master it, my face will turn red."

    Darn you, old man!

    Xiang Li was telling Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you arest. What happens to your awesomeness?

    Anyang covered her face: It more like awkwardness instead of awesomeness¡­

    Ji Yuan was surprised that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had packed up to leave just after 3 days and they were smiling at him.

    He was really d and praised these two maidens in his heart: They must have known that I am bored of this ce already so they are sacrificing their cultivation in order to be with me¡­

    So when Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi had walked back, Ji Yuan began tough jovially. "Are the two of you missing me already?"

    The golden celestial in front of Ji Yuan had heard him and he was immediately envious; it was because he had seen these two maidens at the 600 steps and he was impressed with their cultivation.

    Yun Chi took a curious look at Ji Yuan, "No?"

    "Why should we?" Bai Qianfeng was also looking at him curiously.

    "Then why are you here?" Ji Yuan began to smile weakly.

    Yun Chiughed softly, "That is because we have justpleted our daoprehension of this ce and there is nothing we can learn here already."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "My lord," Bai Qianfeng said to him with a horrified look in her golden eyes. "I didn''t realize that you are actually at the 59 steps of this ce. This is a most horrible result. Howe you are so weak in your internal profound arts?"

    Ji Yuan stole a look at his old master in front of him before he bitterly said, "That is because I have a sucky master who never taught me a top notch internal profound art."

    Bai Qianfeng giggled before she said to him, "We shall meditate nearby while waiting for the rest. It is only a short two days."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes; he would rather bang the two of them than cultivating here¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled lovingly, "My lord, I am so d to see you cultivating so hard with your new internal profound art. You seem to have made plenty of progress in ittely. Your Qianfeng will always be here to support you."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Really? Coming from my dear Qianfeng, this is so good to be praised by you. Haha¡­"

    "One day you will be as strong as your old master." Bai Qianfeng smiled as she interrupted Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi was also smiling as she raised her fingers to show him a V sign, "We will be giving you our spiritual support at the back. Be encouraged and don''t fail us!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    For the next 2 days, Ji Yuan''s cultivation actually did not show any improvements.

    It was because instead of meditating over his profound cultivation, Ji Yuan had fallen asleep for 2 days in a row.

    But when everything had ended, he pretended to be working very hard in his daoprehension.

    Naturally this was not lost on Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng as they had heard him snoozing loud and clear since they were the nearest to him.

    The golden celestial in front of Ji Yuan could not believe that he was actually hearing snoozing sounds and he could not focus on his meditation.

    When Ji Yuan had finally left the ce, he was very much relieved and vowed that Ji Yuan must be a fifth realm cultivator instead of a peak great saint.

    When Ji Yuan''s group had set off now, everyone was discussing with one another how helpful this wondend had been.

    Zhi Jiugong had seen an improvement in her Holy Oracle Goddess and she began to share her insights with Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Yun''Er and Bai Qianfeng were secretly discussing their immortal skills.

    The Lovely Empress was winking at Ji Yuan, "How is your meditation? Do you have any insights on your cultivation?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "That is for sure¡­"

    "But howe you are thest?" The Lovely Empressughed.

    When she had said that, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi and Zhi Jiugong were allughing at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even the short old man was shaking his head as he stared at Ji Yuan, "I am so strong but howe you are so weak?"

 Chapter 579 Alone With The Three Sisters

    After they had the left the Wondend of the Unwavering Monument, Ji Yuan''s group was a little lost in the mountains. So, they had split up for a short time in search of the next passage way through the mountains or for new Wondends to encounter.

    Ji Yuan was surprised that he had been assigned Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden in his small group.

    Or rather Yun Chi had assigned it on purpose.

    From being the most unwee maiden in the group, she was now the most popr de facto leader along with Bai Qianfeng.

    Since Bai Qianfeng did not like to talk very much, leaving it to Ling Feiyue to handle much of the talking for her, Yun Chi had somehow taken over the maidens as a group.

    Although Ji Yuan was the nominal leader of the group, he had lost his say due to his disappointing performance in thest trial for not ''working hard enough''. And also, because he was a male and no one wants him to pick his favorite maidens to go patrolling with him.

    His only constion from Yun Chi was that she did not let him pick his old master to go patrolling with him. Or it would be super boring for the two men.

    Now that Ji Yuan was with Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden, he was spirited again. "Haha, these mountains really have such a nice view."

    In his heart, he had Yun Chi to thanks for.

    Thank you Yun Chi!

    Along the way, he was constantly looking at the swaying butts of Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden; there were great delights in his golden eyes as he watched them...

    After walking for a while, the Lovely Empress giggled softly and she had turned to ask him. "Ji Yuan, we are now patrolling in a group now. For the very first time."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, we are. Nothing special about it."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had turned to look at him with a not so pleasant faint smile, "This is our first time going for a patrol and you''re not happy about this? Ji Yuan, you are indeed not a romantic cultivator."

    "I will be not a romantic cultivator?!" Ji Yuan was shocked to the core.

    How would he not be a romantic cultivator?

    Zhi Jiugongughed from behind him, "That is because you can''t remember or ce emotion attachments to our first time."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You mean that you are all going to give me your very first time in this ce? I can''t wait¡­"

    All of a sudden, all three maidens were punching and kicking him for being dirty minded.

    "You are simply courting your own death!"

    "You''re hopeless!"

    "Go to die, Ji Yuan!"

    "Is that what you have been actually thinking all along?"

    "Stupid Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan justughed loudly, "I was only joking¡­"

    "Ji Yuan," the Lovely Empress had suddenly asked him. "Why didn''t you cultivate your internal profound arts when you have the chance? I have heard you snoozing."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "From so far away?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden covered her face, "Your snoozing is really loud."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. I didn''t realize this."

    Then he rubbed his chin before saying solemnly, "I have reached my limit after 3 days. So I have stopped."

    The Lovely Empress curiously looked at him, "What limit? Cultivation has no limit unless you are like¡­ Maiden Yun Chi."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    She had wanted to say, her mistress instead.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "If I had continued to cultivate back then, do you know how red my face would be and after that I won''t even be knowing what I was doing?"

    When he had said that, all three maidens began tough jovially and they even had tears rolling down their eyes...

    The Lovely Empressughed, "I cannot imagine a free of charge cultivator like you, will actually give me so many millions of high-grade spirit stones¡­ so thank you¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan simply shrugged his shoulders as he muttered almost incoherently, "I can bang you so many times with these millions..."

    "What did you just say?" The Lovely Empress said him with a cold look.

    "Nothing. Haha..." Ji Yuanughed it off.

    It was because he really did not mind if he had lost 2 days of cultivation at the Wondend of the Unwavering Monument.

    It was because he had always been an attack type and seldom focused on his defenses. Because if he did then his profound power in his swords would be much weaker.

    Although Power and Defense Cultivations are strong in their profound auras and can defend against profound attacks in a much more effective way than a sword practitioner like Ji Yuan, but they rarely have the ability to make projectile attacks.

    But of course, they do not need to since projectile attacks always require much more profound strength and also required aiming. At the same time, projectile attacks would also weaken over distances and further weaken when there are resistances.

    Also when a cultivator is a Power or a Defense Cultivator, their profound defense which can be profound aura or animus can also be improved at the same time. When used with a divine sword, their profound attack will also be much stronger.

    The main reason why they have scorned the sword practitioners is because fanciful sword attacks just cannot prate their profound defenses or their golden body. So sword strokes are useless in the Celestial Realm aspare to the lower mortal realm. Profound power is everything in the Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan''s attacks were weaker than most of the Power and Defense Cultivators. That was why he relied on his sword attacks to strike continuously as to weaken his opponent''s profound animus little by little first before making his final attack.

    Also he had relied more on his speed to evade attacks rather than tanking a direct hit most of the time.

    Even if he was a sword saint, he was not exactly a respected sword saint without a sword spirit in the past.

    Usually for the sword practitioners, a sword spirit can further augment their sword profound power instead of a spirit animus while Power and Defense Cultivators rely more on spirit animus to be stronger since they have so much more spiritual reserves.

    That was one reason why Ji Yuan did not have a lot of motivation to pick up the Yang Invincible Body Art since this skill required hundreds of years to perfect and to build up his foundation.

    Instead, he continued to rely on his speed attacks and speed.

    That was the reason why when the Smiling Divine Maiden was making her evasion in the secret immortal array back in Bliss City, he got very interested. Because he had also wanted to impress her, he really tried his best to improve upon his own evasion. And he did manage to push his evasion to a whole new level as well.

    At this moment Ji Yuan was looking dazedly at the three maidens as they disyed their fists and kicks on him.

    With a loud chuckle, he grabbed them one by one to his embrace andughed jovially. "I think that Yun Chi is purposely pushing the three of you into my arms instead¡­"

    And the three maidens were all flushing in his embrace in return.

    After looking at Ji Yuan, they began to smile dreamily as they rested their heads on him¡­

    And naturally, Ji Yuan''s hands were not clean and he was groping them all at the same time¡­

    But the three maidens did not mind as they allowed him to flirt with them for a while as they dreamily wrapped themselves around him. That was because Ji Yuan was the man they had loved dearly now and today was their time with him. If Ji Yuan was honest then they would indeed be very disappointed...

 Chapter 580 Prelude To The Great Valhalla Hall

    Ji Yuan and his group had now found a new wondend and the name of this wondend was the Great Valha Hall.

    This was what they had found out by touching the ck stele and they saw that there was a huge cavern opening in front of them.

    When Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had found this wondend, Ji Yuan was not surprised at all.

    It was because he knew that they had been cheating.

    While everyone was patrolling, Ji Yuan was flirting with the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

    It was because he knew that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng would take flight in secret after everyone was away and they would quickly find the next wondend. In this way, none of them would be lost.

    By taking flight, he meant that they were not merely taking flight but was flying.

    And he was proven right.

    That was why he did not go too far away from their appointed meeting ce.

    When the short old man saw this wondend, he was trembling but he was also excited, "I had once visited this wondend when I was very young. I''ve thought that I may never seen it again. This is one wondend that I must go."

    When he had said that, Ji Yuan and the 10 maidens were all curiously looking at him.

    "What is it this ce?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The short old man solemnly answered them, "This ce is actually abat trial. There are a lot of unspeakable horrors in this ce and you must have a golden talisman or else you will surely die in there. This will be exinedter once you are inside the Great Valha Hall. This ce is where the names of the heroes that die shall be engraved in the Great Valha Hall. Therefore, I shall not advise that you go to this ce. So, I guess that this is time for us to say farewell."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I will be afraid? My fighting spirit is aroused now. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue whispered to the rest of the maidens, "He happens to learn a stupid skill called the Undying Fighting Spirit¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan began to ask the short old man solemnly, "What is the reward of this ce since you have been in there before?"

    The short old man grinned, "I''ve got my Yang Invincible Profound Arts and my white saintly divine sword in there. But it is a most dangerous ce. I wish I can tell you more but the mysticws of this ce prevent me from telling you more about this trial unless you have been inside yourself. However, I am allowed to warn you because this is a most difficult trial of the middle final trial."

    Ji Yuan took a quiet look at the 10 maidens behind and he was saying, "I am going in. It is because I am a cultivator and I need to improve my sword skills in abat trial. This is the only way that I can improve myself and it is not by meditation. And as a cultivator, I need to take certain risks."

    When he had said that, the short old man nodded as he stroked his long beard in approval: This is his Ji Yuan!

    "So, anyone going or who is staying behind?" Ji Yuan asked quietly; he had suddenly lost his usual humor in his golden eyes.

    The ten maidens quickly discussed among themselves and the reply shocked Ji Yuan.

    Except for Yun Chi, Little Princess, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue who were the 5 that were not going, the other 5 maidens, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all going in.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    The reason why Yun Chi had chosen not to go was because her unborn daughter whom she called Little Precious was more important than any profound treasures. Unless it was necessary, she was not going to take any risks.

    As for Yang Mi, she felt she was too weak and she did not want to give her father any pressure by going inside; she was actually the only maiden that was not a great saintess. Moreover she could cultivate her Holy Oracle Goddess with her Sister Yu Jingjing too.

    As for Yu Jingjing, she had wanted to cultivate her Holy Oracle Goddess with the cultivation methods that Zhi Jiugong had taught her.

    As for Feng Minyue and Little Princess, they were taking the opportunity to cultivate more of the insights that they had gained from the earlier wondend. And that was the reason why they had decided to give this wondend a miss.

    Ling Feiyue rolled her alluringly golden eyes as she took a look at Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong. "I am forced to admit that I seem to be the weakest among my sisters that are going to this ce."

    Although she had said that but she was smiling wryly.

    The Lovely Empress chuckled softly as she disyed a moment of loveliness, "Hehe. I''m just going in for some profound treasures. Maybe I can even find a saint sword or two."

    The short old man reminded her, "It is not for ying. This ce is particrly brutal."

    Then he turned to look at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, "Are you sure that you really want toe? It is really a dangerous ce."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden faintly smile, "Just because my mother consort had perished in this ce too, so you are trying to dissuade me?"

    The short old man was startled but he quicklyposed himself; just before her mother consort had passed away, she had used several profound treasures to send out herst location in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the name of the wondend where she had died was the Great Valha Hall.

    When Ji Yuan had heard this, he was startled as he turned to look at Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden. "Is that true?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gave a soft divine hum as she nodded quietly, "My mother consort had indeed died inside the final trial and that is reason why I am also here. Because this ce has my mother consort''s memories. She was only here because she had wanted to help my father to fulfill his dreams."

    The short old man returned a dark frowned, "What is the past, is the past! I have already forgiven her for her infidelity to me. She is still my first consort and you are still my daughter!"

    When Ji Yuan saw the mncholy look that was on the Smiling Divine Maiden''s countenance, he was saddened too. But as this was a family matter, he decided not to ask too much.

    He pretended tough, "Haha. Let''s go then. We will soon return from this trial. So stay safe everyone!"

    He took a slow look at Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong; we are all cultivators and we have to defy death all the time or death will surely overtake us. This is our choice to enter this trial to be stronger. I hope to see everyone safe and sound after this¡­

    When Xiang Li saw that Ji Yuan was so sad in his heart, she asked him: Big Brother, why are you so sad?

    Ji Yuan bitterly answered: That is because I have not banged the three sisters yet¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Author Note:

    1. This is the beginning of the next major arc!

    2. What will be inside this Great Valha Hall?

 Chapter 581 The Great Valhalla Hall

    Ji Yuan, the short old man, Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, Ling Feiyue and Zhi Jiugong had all stepped into the big cavern that was in front of them.

    There were 7 of them.

    Before they had stepped into the cavern, Ji Yuan was saying to his old master. "The name of this ce does not sound too dangerous? After all, this is merely a hall, right?"

    The short old man inhaled deeply as he sighed, "That is because this isn''t just a hall. The hall is just here to record your names and the real dangers are not in the hall."

    Now that Ji Yuan had entered the cavern, he was quite startled to see thousands of golden skeletons being piled up a big straight line and they were everywhere inrge quantity.

    He was startled, "What is this?! Howe there are so many dead cultivators in this ce?"

    Even Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and Bai Qianfeng were startled to witness such a dreadful sight.

    Only the Smiling Divine Maiden remained asposed as ever before but her woeful golden eyes had betrayed her.

    An old voice, that of an Old Trial Spirit began to tremble in the cavern as they approached, "This is the Great Valha Hall. It is rmended that you have a golden talisman with you when you enter the trial. If you do use the golden talisman when you are in danger, you will be teleported here. However please note that you are only allowed to take this trial only once¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned with great displeasure, "I actually have 2 golden talismans¡­"

    At which the short old man immediately rebuked him angrily, "You are some¡­"

    "I have 5. Yun Chi has given me 5 golden talismans." The Lovely Empress interrupted with a soft sigh.

    Immediately Ji Yuan had turned to her and frowned, "Lame."

    And he was immediately kicked by the Lovely Empress in the next instant.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly as he rolled his golden eyes by her kicks. "I am only teasing you¡­"

    "Hmph!" The Lovely Empress hummed unhappily.

    The Old Trial Spirit continued, "If you are able to score 100 000 points and above, your name will be forever be remembered as a hero in this hall and you will also receive a reward from the trial¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "How many heroes are there in this hall?"

    The Old Trial Spirit echoed his old voice, "164."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "Only 164? Out of several thousand?"

    He saw that there were thousands of golden skeletons in this great hall.

    The Trial Spirit answered him, "More than 1 million cultivators have taken this trial throughout the ages. These are but the dead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Trial Spirit continued, "If you wish to proceed further, all of you will be given a memory stone. This memory stone will record your final regrets before you truly passed away. As the Trial Spirit of this wondend, I will retrieve your body back and also your final memories even if you fail to use your golden tailsman."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "This ce looks too scary."

    Then he had turned back to look at the 5 maidens behind him.

    However, they all had a resolute look and was not afraid.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Therefore, Ji Yuan could only make a soft sigh before he said. "We are going in then¡­"

    When he had said that, the short old man was already walking in front.

    So Ji Yuan began to follow him.

    As he followed him, there were 7 bright stones that had suddenly speeded in their directions and Ji Yuan had caught one of the stones, "This is the trial memory stone?"

    The short old man nodded, "Indeed it is."

    All of a sudden the Smiling Divine Maiden was gasping as she had picked up something with her divine sense.

    Even the short old man was gasping softly, "This familiar sense¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had shed forward to a pile of golden bones and there were shimmering tears in her golden eyes and she was holding a memory stone from within the many memory stones that could be seen, "This is my mother consort''s bones and this is her dying ce¡­ but which one is my mother consort¡­"

    She could not tell which pile of golden bones belonged to her mother consort but the memory stone that she was holding was able to preserve her mother''s profound animus perfectly.

    "This is¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly covering the lower part of her mouth as she cried in front of this memory stone as she probed with her divine sense into the memory stone¡­

    A visual memory of her mother consort had suddenly appeared inside the memory stone and an injured woman was seen crying pitifully on the ground, "Lixue, I will soon be gone now. You must know that you''re always your father''s daughter and not someone else. I have lied to your father that I have someone else but this is not true. At that time, I am the leading consort and my greatest regret is that I cannot produce an heir for your father¡­"

    The memory stone disyed a brief distortion before continuing, "But your father refuses to take any other consorts except for me. I have no other choice but to lie to him so as to lessen his love for me..."

    "My Lixue... do you me your mother consort..."

    "Don''t me your father Yang Kai... he is a good man..."

    "Lately your father seems so distant from me... Although I know that he have many consorts now and I am also happy for him... but I wish that he can be happier... I know that your father has obtained the Yang Invincible Profound Art, his white saintly divine sword and other cultivation treasures in this wondend, so I have ventured alone in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth hoping that I can please him with something¡­"

    The memory stone had suddenly showed the badly injured woman dead on the ground and then the visual memories of this dead woman had gone nk. This was her greatest regret in her life.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden wailed tearfully as she threw the memory stone into her father''s hands, "Take a close look at this!"

    The short old man was suddenly trembling as he used his divine sense on the memory stone, "This¡­ this¡­"

    He was suddenly on his knees and he wasmenting loudly, "Why didn''t you tell me all these years¡­ then I would not have allowed you toe to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth alone¡­ is a heir so important? I have never got a heir... do you know all this or not..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also on her knees and she was bending her trembling body over as she cried aloud, "Mother consort¡­ your unfilial daughter¡­ has finally found you¡­"

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were also emotionally moved and there were tears in their golden eyes¡­

    Even Ji Yuan was trembling and he had walked over to embrace Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden; he had wanted tofort her with words but there were no words that couldfort her now so he had kept quiet for a while.

    When she had cried out her heart, Ji Yuan said to her. "Senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister, you have me in the future and I will take good care of you¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden slowly looked up and stared nkly at Ji Yuan as their golden eyes meet¡­

    Author Note

    1. I''ve been wanting to write this chapter for a long time; this chapter explores the hidden rtionship been Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden and her father Yang Kai the White Sword Monarch.

 Chapter 582 The Demonic Outer World (1)

    After a while, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man hadposed themselves.

    The short old man sighed heavily as he handed the memory stone to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Lixue, this belongs to your mother consort. You deserve to keep this more than me¡­"

    For the very first time, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden had dared to look straight into the eyes of the short old man and for the very first time, her alluring voice was earnest. "Father¡­ thank you¡­"

    The short old man rubbed his old shimmering tears from his old face, "I''ve always thought of you as my daughter because you are my Chu Xueren''s daughter. That is why I have to bring you back no matter what. It is just that I don''t know¡­ how to face you and your mother consort because I am too thick skin to admit that I love her more than anything¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shook her head woefully, "It is my fault too. It is because I had insisted on learning your profound skills in the past and when you had refused to teach me, I was really upset¡­"

    She had suddenly turned to look at Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle, "You can keep your lewd skills to your son-inw instead."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    What is so lewd about the Yang Invincible Profound Arts?

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gently took the memory stone to her bosoms as she muttered, "Mother consort¡­"

    Then she smiled faintly but her tears had continued to flow, "Let''s go inside the trial now."

    The short old man nodded as he hastily walked in front without a word.

    Ji Yuan followed his old master as he chuckled, "Old man, are you crying? Don''t be shy¡­"

    The old man had suddenly punched Ji Yuan hard with his profound strength of the seventh cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan was left aching with great pain as he cursed softly, "Old man, you are serious this time¡­ ouch¡­"

    Ling Feiyue kicked Ji Yuan''s foot as she walked past him, "Serve you right!"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were by the side of the Smiling Divine Maiden as they tried their best to make her smile.

    As Bai Qianfeng walked past Ji Yuan, she had also kicked him. "Serve you right too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he shrugged his shoulders to continue¡­

    At the end of this hall was a shimmering blue portal and this was where the exact trial would start.

    The seven of them bade one another a forlorn farewell before they stepped into this shimmering blue portal.

    Ji Yuan was actually trying to lighten the mood because he had no idea whether he would survive this trial or not.

    Every trial was a challenge and every trial had their own risks.

    Ji Yuan soon found himself in another ce; the forests here were really towering and the spiritual force here was really rich.

    All of a sudden, he was startled; it was because there were two types of rich cultivation auras in this ce; both the deste and spiritual auras were extremely rich in this ce!

    His curiosity had immediately spiked; why did this ce have two types of cultivation auras?<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    So far, this ce did not look dangerous, right?

    As he continued to walk, all of a sudden, he spotted five cultivators fighting against a big sized red humanoid and it had horns.

    Even the cultivators look a bit weird to him because they did not have golden eyes and they don''t even wear robes which were like themon attire in the Celestial Realm. Instead, they worn just a tunic and pants, which looked weird in Ji Yuan''s eyes.

    Ji Yuan did not wait to see the oue of this battle but he had immediately shed forward with his trusty Xiang Li the saintly divine sword and he had instantly sliced the red monster humanoid into two halves.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan found out that he got an invisible 5 points.

    His golden eyes began to roll at this miserable 5 points.

    How many points are required to be recorded in the Hall of Valha?

    Is it 100 000 points?

    The ''five cultivators'' were shocked at Ji Yuan''s martial disy and they were all looking at him weirdly but they were soon looking at him with great delight.

    "You are a great golden celestial! Thank you for helping us to kill this red fiend. We are in your debts. Hero, do you minding to our vige?" One of the cultivators took the initiative to say. "I am Long Hu. We are not bad guys."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I didn''t say you are the bad guys. Hmm, am I in the mortal realm?"

    He had said that because he seemed to be the only golden celestial here.

    Long Hu said wearily for the battle earlier with the red fiend had drained him quite badly, "Great Golden Celestial, you are in the Demonic Outer World."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Long Hu exined as he saw Ji Yuan''s perplexed look, "The Demonic Outer World have many strong demonic cultivators as well as deste monsters. Legend had it that every 500 years, golden celestials from another divine realm wille here to be our salvation. So it is true after all."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "This Demonic Outer World has erm¡­ demonic cultivators? As in what demonic cultivators?"

    Long Hu blinked his eyes and said, "The red fiend that you have killed earlier is a low level demonic cultivator. The demonic racese in many forms and many of them have the ability to transform. My vige is just one of the few ces that are still free from the demonic races influence and we depend on you to save us from the demonic races."

    Ji Yuan looked a little stunned before he asked with a nk look, "Erm, vige? You don''t have a celestial n here?"

    Long Hu smiled bitterly, "How is it possible for us to have a celestial n when this divine realm is ruled by the demonic races? We humanity is but ants in this ce. On the other hand, this ce is ruled by the Dark Phantom Citadel. It is the demonic powerhouse of this ce."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he wanted to bang his head now; now he had to kill the demonic cultivators for his 100 000 points¡­

    All of a sudden Long Hu had kneeled in front of him and so did the other 4 men behind him, "May Great Golden Celestial has mercy on us and bestow upon us your golden talismans in order to escape from this Demonic Outer World!"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    I have only 2 golden tailsmans and I am definitely not going to give them to you...

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. I want to write about the romantic rtionship between Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong in this ce *___*

 Chapter 583 The Demonic Outer World (2)

    Long Hu and the other 4 cultivators were delighted to take Ji Yuan to their hidden vige in the dense woods.

    Ji Yuan saw that this vige was indeed extremely well hidden and as he stepped into this hidden vige, he could immediately detect the many defense arrays that were in this ce. From the outside, he was actually unable to detect it.

    Long Hu was shouting loudly in the vige now, "Everyone! I have brought a great golden celestial back to our vige!"

    Dozens of cultivators began to pour out of their abodes to look at Ji Yuan and he saw that there were even a few golden celestials among the group.

    Long Hu said, "We do have just a few golden celestials here but they are all low levels and cannot bepared to you."

    When Ji Yuan had heard him, he began to chuckle. "Of course, of course. I am the most awesome cultivator. Haha¡­"

    When the many cultivators heard him, there were looks of disgust in their eyes; they had never seen any cultivator like Ji Yuan who would paste gold on his face in front of so many.

    Long Hu had suddenly said, "Grand Elder! You are here!"

    An old elderly man with golden eyes could be seen arriving and he appeared to be the leader of this group, "Yet another one? So the 500 years have already arrived. Good."

    Long Hu was surprised, "There is another 1?"

    The old elder nodded. "This man that you have brought back is actually the second one."

    Then he took a look at Ji Yuan, "He doesn''t look very strong¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was quickly grinning, "I am actually very strong. I am Great Saint Ji Yuan. Haha."

    When he had said that he began to disy his profound aura for everyone to see his lofty cultivation of the seventh realm.

    The old elder had taken a golden rock while Ji Yuan was disying his profound animus, "Only 444 points. He''s just a weak great saint. We have someone who has 3212 points here."

    When the old elder had said that, many of the cultivators were all shaking their heads woefully.

    "Although he did not lie to us that he is a great saint but his profound aura is weaker than a fifth realm golden celestial¡­"

    "He is not any stronger than our golden celestials¡­"

    "Luckily we have a strong great golden celestial here already¡­"

    "Maybe he can be that great saint''s subordinate?"

    Xiang Li was feeling awkward: Big Brother, I told you to work on your internal profound art!

    Fairy Anyang Xiahou was shaking her head: This is so awkward for a great saint. Only 444 points versus 3212 points...

    Ji Yuan felt like he just got face pped by everyone. As a typical arrogant young master type, Ji Yuan quickly protested about his weak profound strength. "Take me to see this great saint now! I wanna to face p him in front of everyone."

    When he had disyed his two saintly divine sword and his divine halos, everyone would probably give him some face and be in awe of him.

    Haha¡­

    With this thought in his mind, he was spirited again.

    "What are you all waiting for? Who is the master and who is the subordinate? You will never know. Let me tell you this. I am Sword Saint Ji Yuan as well as Great Saint Ji Yuan. What is the point of having a strong profound aura when your opponent can hit you continuously? Although I am weak in my profound aura, I am really strong in my profound attacks. Haha¡­"

    "Oh this is terrible, he is just a sword cultivator¡­"

    "Sword cultivators, sword saint or not is useless¡­"

    "We need someone with a powerful divine sense¡­"

    "Or someone with a strong profound aura to protect us, not someone that hit and then run away¡­"

    "We can''t depend on him to protect us¡­"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    "He can''t even tank for us¡­"

    "Sword cultivators are infamous for their runaway in battles¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he said to the old elderly man rudely, "Hurry bring me to this great saint and what is your name?"

    The old elderly man stared at Ji Yuan for a while and he was frowning in his old voice, "I am Grand Elder Tu, the leader of this vige. Young man, you are too rude. I am probably older than you even if you are a great saint. That great saint earlier is much more polite than you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I will be impolite? I am actually really polite. So what if I am a sword cultivator? I am still a great golden celestial and a great saint."

    Long Hu did not speak anymore for he was feeling a little awkward for bringing Ji Yuan back to the vige. He had expected that Ji Yuan would be such a weak savior.

    Grand Elder Tu disyed a deep sigh, "Young man. This is the Demonic Outer World and I have seen the deaths of many great golden celestials. If you can''t tame your hot blood then I am afraid that this ce will be your grave eventually. Whether you believe it or not, take my advice soundly."

    Ji Yuan began to disyed a boastful look, "I have heard that the Dark Phantom Citadel is the powerhouse of this ce. How about that I help you to destroy them?"

    Grand Elder Tu sighed even more heavily, "Someone told me the exact same thing 500 years ago. He is also a great saint and there were 19 great saints in his group as well. We have thought that they had a good chance back then. But in the end, they had all perished during an attack on the Dark Phantom Citadel."

    Ji Yuan began to gulp, "20 great saints and they had all perished? How many great saints did you say we got now?"

    Grand Elder Tu stared at Ji Yuan, "Including you, that is 2."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    2 vs. 20

    I am screwed.

    Can I take back my words now?

    Soon after they had reached Grand Elder Tu''s abode and they were being followed by all the curious cultivators behind.

    They had wanted to see if Ji Yuan could really defeat the Great Saint that was resting in Grand Elder Tu''s abode.

    When Ji Yuan had entered into the abode, he was quite startled to see a most beautiful heavenly fairy and she got a devil body to match for that.

    "Zhi Jiugong!"

    "Ji Yuan?"

    "Why are you here?" Both Zhi Jiugong and Ji Yuan said at the same time.

    It was really Zhi Jiugong and she was startled to see Ji Yuan.

    Like Ji Yuan, she had actually just arrived.

    Grand Elder Tu was startled, "The two of you know each other?"

    Long Hu asked, "So who wins in a fight now?"

    Ji Yuan stared at Long Hu, Grand Elder Tu and all the rest of the onlookers. "Do you know that she is my consort? Are you asking me to fight my consort?"

 Chapter 584 The Demonic Outer World (3)

    The duel between Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong naturally did not take ce.

    Hourster.

    Zhi Jiugong and Ji Yuan had been assigned amon abode because everyone had thought that they were a couple.

    Ji Yuan had actually mean consort-to-be instead of consort but he was too used to call everyone his consorts so there was a blunder.

    Now that they were alone, Ji Yuan was now saying awkwardly. "Shall we tell them that we need 2 abodes instead of just one?"

    Zhi Jiugong lowered her nces as she said softly in her usual heavenly voice, "No need. We are all cultivators here. Do you mind?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Of course I don''t mind at all."

    Finally, he got to sleep with Zhi Jiugong and that was what he had always wanted so he had no issue about that.

    Zhi Jiugong suddenly said as she looked at him, "Ji Yuan, did you notice that the cultivators are really strong in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "They seem weak to me. Or else they won''t need our help."

    "No, Ji Yuan." Zhi Jiugong said with a pondering look. "If we are at the same cultivation realm, they are definitely stronger than us."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan looked at her with a perplexed look.

    "I was here much earlier in this vige than you and moreover I saw their fights with the demonic cultivators." Zhi Jiugong pointed out to him.

    "What is stopping them from reaching the sixth and seventh cultivation realm is the cultivation resources and they have none to speak of. Even a profound treasure like a divine sword is almost non-existent for them."

    "Can you imagine that? Although this ce is rich in spiritual auras but they just cannot produce any profound treasures due to theck of cultivation resources. Instead, they have spent all their high grade spirit stones to maintain the elusiveness of their profound defense arrays."

    "And they also have much better profound pills than us."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "That means that erm¡­ the enemy demonic cultivators are all stronger than us?"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "Even a demonic sixth realm cultivator may be able to kill us. If they are also the great saint cultivation level then they are 100% stronger than us."

    Ji Yuan gasped softly, "This is such a brutal truth¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded slowly, "And that is why this trial is actually the most brutal trial. We can''t be holding onto our golden talisman at all times. What if the enemy has the profound strength to massacre us? Even if I have 5 golden talismans, it is also useless."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Actually I have only 2 golden talismans¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong sighed softly, "That isn''t the point. What if we are beaten until we are so weak and we don''t even have the profound strength to burn our golden talisman to escape?"

    Ji Yuan answered most awkwardly, "At least the Old Trial Spirit has promised us that he will retrieve our bodies for us. Haha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong: ¡­

    Zhi Jiugong: ¡­

    Zhi Jiugong: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, do you dislike me?" Zhi Jiugong had suddenly asked him and she was looking nervously at him.

    Ji Yuan was startled by her question and he looked a little perplexed, "No. Of course no. Why should I be? I have flirted with you, right? Haha."

    Zhi Jiugong smiled as Ji Yuan had said that but she was solemn almost immediately, "Or is it because you''re with me because of my two other sisters? I can tell that that you like them more than me."

    Ji Yuanughed softly before he said solemnly, "Actually I think that you are noblest among the three and you really have a most noble demeanor. Also, you are very good in ying music and you have such a heavenly voice. I really like you. In fact, I like you on the first day that I''ve seen you."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Zhi Jiugong blinked her eyes with surprise, "Really? You like me on the very first day that you have seen me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Of course! And I have wanted to get close to you since day 1."

    Xiang Li giggled to Anyang: Big Brother means the Doll Zhi Jiugong. That real one.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes in his soul sea: Shut up Xiang Li and stop corrupting Anyang. We really need to talk one day and stop sleeping when I''m talking to you on serious matters.

    Zhi Jiugong lowered her golden eyes, "Is that so? That is good¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Of course I am telling the truth. Also, I think that you are also the strongest cultivator among the three sisters."

    Zhi Jiugong was startled, "You really think so?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he said without any doubt, "If you are not strong then you won''t be known as the Ancient Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect. And you have formed the foundation of the Holy Oracle Sect into the top 3 celestial ns in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. This is really such an achievement."

    "It is just that," Ji Yuan began to say curiously. "I don''t understand why did you choose to abandon your lofty status as the Ancient Matriarch and did not return from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Zhi Jiugong heaved a soft sigh, "Because most of the great saints will not ovee their ascension to the Immortal Realm. I want to be an immortal. This is my end goal and my destiny. I want to be an immortal cultivator and have an unlimited lifespan."

    Then she turned to look at Ji Yuan with a quiet voice, "Is this really wrong?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "No, you are not wrong. But you have given it up because of me?"

    Zhi Jiugong was quiet all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan saw her silence and he was quietlymenting, "I like to be an immortal now too. In the past when I have nothing, I didn''t really think about it. But I am just a sword cultivator. Am I able to pass the gruesome conditions to ascend as an immortal?"

    "Aren''t you a purple lightning cultivator? These types of cultivators are the most likely to ovee their ascension and to be an immortal." Zhi Jiugong returned an encouraging smile.

    JI Yuan smiled weakly, "I am sure that you know by now that I have ovee my purple lightning tribtion with the help of Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. They have all the profound treasures with them while I have only my five leaf clovers. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li protested immediately: That is not true big brother. Xiang Li has also contributed to your lightning tribtion!

    Ji Yuan growled to her: No, you did not.

    Xiang Li raised her sweet voice: No, I did! I make Xue Qianxue''s spirit animus much, much stronger!

    But Ji Yuan had already ignored Xiang Li and he was looking intently at Zhi Jiugong.

    Zhi Jiugong was flustered when she had noticed that Ji Yuan was looking at her, "What are you looking at? There is something on me?"

    Ji Yuan answered softly, "No. That is because you are too beautiful¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong quickly said, "Ji Yuan, do you think remember that I have owe you one unfulfilled wish? Why don''t you tell me what your unfulfilled wish is and I see if I am able to fulfill it for you?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised that she had still remembered and he was quick to chuckle, "It is really easy for you to fulfill and within your limits."

    Zhi Jiugong gave him a flushed look as she asked softly, "What is it?"

    Ji Yuan had already move closer to her and he was bending upon her, "Um, I am actually thinking of kissing you. Is it alright?"

    Zhi Jiugong reacted with a coyly look before she had suddenly grabbed her slender hands around Ji Yuan''s head to kiss him mouth to mouth and head to head...

    And then both of them stumbled onto the bed with a strong burning passion¡­

 Chapter 585 The Dark Phantom Forest (1) R18

    Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were both given a token to explore the Dark Phantom Forest. Or rather, this token was actually for them to bypass the profound defensive arrays of the vige and also for them to enter into the vige.

    The reason why they were in such a hurry was because they had no idea how vast this realm was or how the time would run in this ce.

    They only know that they were not be able to stay in any ces for too long because their ultimate goal was to reach the innermost area of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth''s final trial.

    Imagine that they had nearly fainted when they were told that this Dark Phantom Forest was hundreds of miles in area and that they could find the Dark Phantom Citadel on the fridge of this Dark Phantom Forest. And that was only one demonic n.

    They were also told that there were many deste and divine beasts in the Dark Phantom Forest. With all the dangers presented in the innermost of the Dark Phantom Forest, that was why the vige that they were in, had escaped extermination.

    There may be other viges too elsewhere but everyone was in hiding as humans were a minority here.

    Every 500 years or so, the second sun would appear in the heavens and it was much brighter than the first sun.

    When the second sun appeared in the heavens, it was a sign of a divine cmity that could soon be descending upon this Demonic Divine Realm in the form of the descending golden celestials from the Celestial Divine Realm.

    This Demonic Divine Realm was actually divided into the Demonic Outer World and the Demonic Inner World.

    There was only twilight instead of day light in the Demonic Inner World and that ce was filled with powerful deste and divine beasts at which even the demonic races dared not easily encroached.

    But every 500 years, the light from the second sun would light up the Inner World and turned the twilight into day.

    That was all the information that Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were able to obtain from Grand Elder Tu.

    At this moment Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were hiding on top of a tree branch and had concealed their profound animus; it was because they had sensed strange movementsing their way from another part of the forest. So they had decided to make their observations first.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan was holding the hand of the flushing Zhi Jiugong as though they were close lovers.

    Last night, they had actually managed to break down the thin barrier between them; Zhi Jiugong was Ji Yuan''s woman now as they copted together.

    It had only started off as a small forey before it quickly became an unstoppable flood of passions and then either one of them had wanted this to end.

    And so, one thing led to another.

    Zhi Jiugong hadpleted surrendered to Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan had also banged the maiden of his dreams, Zhi Jiugong.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang looked extremely satisfied.

    Zhi Jiugong was the one that had alerted Ji Yuan to the danger and he was quite rmed how strong her divine sense was. It was 3 times longer than he had expected.

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking: Oh crap. She can gossip beyond the range of my divine sense¡­

    It did not take long for them to see a group of strange humanoid cultivators and they were escorting a group of 10 naked human females behind them.

    From the brief knowledge that Grand Elder Tu had given them, they knew by now that these humanoid cultivators were the red fiends, orcs and the beastmen.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Their leader was a big ogre that was double the height of a normal human and he was in a big open carriage that was being drawn by a fourth rank divine beast. This ogre was half-naked below and he was seen copting fiercely with a coyly looking golden celestial who was drooling with soft lewd sounds.

    It was obvious to Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong that this coyly looking golden celestial was a newly depraved ve and she may well be from their own divine realm.

    Also, they could see four other unconsciousness naked maidens next to the makeshift bed of the big ogre cultivator.

    All of a sudden, both Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were gasping softly; it was because they had suddenly recognized that the naked maiden that was being toyed by the big ogre cultivator was actually Hua Xunzi!

    And she had indeede from their divine realm.

    At this moment, she seemed to have lost her golden talisman and she was forced to copted with this big ogre cultivator.

    The big ogre cultivator was groping her breasts without letting off of the grip that were from his big hands and he was seen spreading her naked legs widely around his fat waist to copte violently from behind her butt.

    Hua Xunzi was screaming and twitching, "You hitting my flower petals... stop it please.."

    Her bottom was rushing now like torrent of water...

    Ji Yuan was immediately aroused with anger; even though he was not close to Hua Xunzi but she was a cultivator from his divine realm.

    Zhi Jiugong could sense his rage and she had quickly put her hand to catch hold of him as she shook her head gently; it was as though she was saying to him that Hua Xunzi was a great saintess and she had a celestial-step celestial robe with her. But yet she could still crumble into the hands of that big ogre cultivator. This would only mean that this big ogre cultivator was stronger than a great saint!

    Right now as this group of demonic cultivators got closer, Ji Yuan could hear the loud chuckle of the big ogre cultivator with golden eyes, "This human great saintess is so tight and so good¡­"

    Hua Xunzi was screaming painfully as she was being toyed forcefully by this inhumane cultivator and her lewd waters were sshing nonstop.

    She had never expected that this big ogre cultivator would actually be a great saint and so much stronger than her and she was in painful tears.

    She had not only lost her celestial-step golden robe but she had also lost her golden talisman to this big ogre cultivator; it seemed that these demonic cultivators were already expecting the golden celestials to arrive and they were readied to fight them.

    If Ji Yuan was someone that could listen to advise, then he would not be Ji Yuan.

    Immediately he had swooped down on the demonic cultivators with his saintly divine sword and had killed three of the weaker demonic cultivators with a strong sh by disying his great saint profound animus.

    When Zhi Jiugong saw that Ji Yuan had actually shed forward to challenge the big ogre cultivator, she had joined him with a sh next to him as well.

    Now the big ogre cultivator was also at the golden great saint level and there were also red fiends with golden eyes at the golden saint level.

    The big ogre cultivator banged Hua Xunzi hard for onest time before he cast her violently down on his carriage, "You got to wait. I have two enemy cultivators here."

    And he was greedily looking at Zhi Jiugong with lusts in his golden eyes.

    Ji Yuan was feeling very angry now and he felt that he was being green by this big ogre cultivator. So he swung his sword forward and said rudely, "Go and die!"

 Chapter 586 The Dark Phantom Forest (2)

    This was the very first time that Ji Yuan was fighting against so many demonic cultivators.

    Other than the big ogre cultivator who seemed to be the strongest, there were also two strong demonic cultivators such as the two red fiend cultivators. From their profound animus, Ji Yuan could tell what their cultivation realm were; 1 great saint and 2 golden saints!

    There were also 10 other golden celestials in the enemy group which consisted of 4 golden supremacies and 6 golden celestials. As for the rest of the 30 other demonic cultivators, they were not even of the golden celestial level so Ji Yuan was confident that he would be able to ughter themter.

    It was easy to tell for they had golden eyes plus their profound animus would pronounce the differences in their realm divinities.

    Naturally the demonic cultivators were not using the same cultivation system as Ji Yuan; their equivalent of a golden saint and great saint were known as the profane daemon and great profane daemon cultivation realm.

    As for their equivalent to the sixth realm golden supremacies, the demonic cultivators were known as the great daemons.

    The fifth realm golden celestial level would be their equivalent of the daemon level.

    In any case, they were all radiating with a translucent bloodlust red aura which again, looked differently from the celestials from Ji Yuan''s own divine realm.

    The big ogre cultivator roared withughter as he disyed an earth-step gigantic sword, "I am Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama. That strong female celestial is mine to fight and conquer. The rest of you¡­"

    He had the intention to fight Zhi Jiugong and to make her into his new conquest.

    Ji Yuan had a twitch in his countenance and he was shouting loudly, "Your opponent is me! Great Saint Ji Yuan!"

    Once again, he had shed his Xiang Li saintly divine sword in front of him and he looked ugly; it was because this big ogre cultivator was ignoring a cultivator with a saintly divine sword and instead, he was trying to fight a cultivator with a heaven-step divine zither.

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama and many of the demon cultivators had burst out inughter; this was indeed the funniest that they had ever heard.

    This caused them to halt in their advances temporary tough aloud.

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lamaughed as he shook his finger at Ji Yuan, "You are too weak. Even your saint-step divine sword is but a toy in your hand. We will take the artefact core of your saint swordter and reforge it into our daemon sword instead."

    JI Yuan rolled his golden eyes; he had only 444 points vs. Zhi Jiugong 3212 points.

    He had a sudden grin in his heart; however, his 444 points was better in bed and he had dominated Maiden Zhi Jiugong''s 3212 points.

    As he was thinking about it, he had actually swung his sword forward as he unleashed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light and the white ring light of his sword energies flew to explode furiously toward his opponents!

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama immediately shouted as he raised his earth-step divine sword to block it, "Be careful! He is capable of powerful projectile attacks!"

    Almost all the cultivators had raised their weapons and profound animus in the area to block or to resist the iing attack.

    Those that failed to block it, were the weaker ones and 6 demonic cultivators were instantly pulverized into dead burning ck bodies.

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was naturally unharmed because he was simply too strong; he could block off the sword energy easily. Moreover, even if he got hit by it, the wounds would not be able to affect hisbat ability and would be quickly regenerated.

    The power disparity between him and Ji Yuan were really too vast!

    It was because the demonic cultivators were much stronger than a golden celestial of the same cultivation level!

    Just as the demonic cultivators had blocked or evade this super powerful sword energies from Ji Yuan, there was another another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that exploded upon them!

    Ji Yuan was really too fast with his sword profound arts nowadays!

    Zhi Jiugong had summoned her Holy Oracle Goddess as her spirit animus by now and she had levitated her heaven-step divine zither in front of her to y her deadly sword melodies.

    Immediately her profound animus had lent strength to her profound energies as she sent deadly sword energies to fly all over the vicinity and moreover, her music had a most disharmony effects that could cause the demonic cultivators not to focus!

    As she yed her music, she began to take a weird look at Ji Yuan; he was not disying his sword spirits and the divine halo of his sword?

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama shouted angrily, "These two are not weak! Attack!"

    With a might burst of his powerful aura, he hadpletely dispelled the sword energies from the air and he had charged toward Ji Yuan.

    Or rather it was Ji Yuan who had leapt forward to intercept him with a shining white re of his saint-step divine sword.

    This was actually Ji Yuan''s ultimate sword art the Sacred Sword Pir.

    Immediately, a white re profound of light began to sweep into the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama as their swords met with a furious ng.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was stunned that he was suddenly being forced back and he had crashed into the ground with arge bang!

    At that moment, Ji Yuan''s profound power had far exceeded anyone but it was temporary; Ji Yuan had increased his profound strength through the profound power of his sword arts and he had proven to everyone that he was not weak!

    However, the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was not harmed at all for Ji Yuan had only seeded in pushing him back and most of the profound aura of the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was actually still intact and unaffected.

    But as he got crashed down onto the ground, he was startled to see that the weak and vulnerable Great Saintess Zhi Jiugong suddenly had another spirit animus and it was a powerful angel animus that would boost her profound aura and strength. And more it was a ninth rank angelic spirit animus!

    "She has two spirit animus?!"

    It was extremely to use two spirit entities and was more difficult than anything to sync them together. Most cultivators would think that this was actually an impossible feat to aplish and if a cultivator would be able to do that, then his/her talent must really be heaven-defying!

    The Holy Oracle Goddess spirit animus had suddenly transformed her spirit fists into two gigantic profound swords and had pierced through to the two red fiend profane daemon cultivators as they shrieked painfully when they were being pierced backward!

    Even Ji Yuan was taken by surprised because he had once been mmed by the Holy Oracle Goddess before but never been pierced by it before; this was another level of power and divinity entirely!

    Ji Yuan gulped; his new consort was stronger than he had thought and he feared for his little brother¡­

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was also startled that his two powerful subordinates were being pushed back by a single enemy cultivator and moreover they were being supported by tens of other cultivators too but they just could not overwhelm this female cultivator who was protected by her two spirit animus.

    This time Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama was furious enough and he had decided to be serious now; he had decided to rip apart Ji Yuan in his rage before he captured the female cultivator personally.

    Anyway, he had already known that this Ji Yuan was not be able to hurt him.

    But all of a sudden, a white ring light had suddenly appeared with so much profound power that it instantly pierced through his body!

    And he was suddenly seeing a saintly divine sword in his tummy!

    Before he could even react, another white re of light had once again pierced through his tummy again and it was another saintly divine sword!

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama stared widely, "This cultivator has two saint-step divine swords?! He can''t possibly use two¡­"

    But before he could finish, Ji Yuan had shed down upon him with his two sword spirits and had smashed his face!

    When Ji Yuan had used his first sword spirit, his profound strength would naturally be increased.

    When he had used his second sword spirit, his speed would naturally be increased.

    Combined, he had both profound strength and speed now!

    The Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama growled in rage as he tried to remove the two saintly swords from his tummy but Ji Yuan was pressing upon his two saintly swords and was also punching him with his formidable sword energies, "Two¡­ sword¡­ spirits¡­ what are you¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not reply for he was timing himself and then he was grinning, "It is time¡­"

    He had suddenly grabbed the handle of his two saintly divine swords, crossing them together and was shouting aloud, "Grand Cross!!!"

    Although he could not use his grand cross profound sword art with two of his saintly swords, he could always pin his enemy to the ground to use it. That was his n all this while.

    He did not try to pierce the neck of his opponent because his opponent could still move and that was his strongest point. Instead he had pierced his saint swords onto the tummy of his opponent because it was a bigger target anyway. Once he had seeed, he knew what he must do next to win this battle.

    Immediately the vicinity had exploded with a white light, ripping the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama apart as well as killing dozens of cultivators that were trying to rush to aid their leader.

    Ji Yuan was simply too fast with his sword profound arts for anyone to help.

    Before anyone could know what was happening, their leader was ripped apart by a very weak golden celestial!

    Even Zhi Jiugong was gasping with surprise; the way Ji Yuan could transfer his profound energies into profound power was simply too fast. She was getting a little worry that she may be ravaged by him day and night now¡­

    Ji Yuan suddenly saw that he got 1000 points, then several 5 points and 10 points...

    The 1000 points had actually belonged to this Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama himself.

    He thought: I need to kill 100 demonic cultivators like the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama then?

 Chapter 587 The Dark Phantom Forest (3)

    Ji Yuan quickly put all the demonic cultivators to the sword.

    He had pretended to be exhausted after killing the Great Profane Daemon Baozi Lama and the other powerful demonic cultivators.

    This gave the lower ranking demonic cultivators a hope to be promoted to a higher hierarchy and what was more, Ji Yuan''s profound animus was really weak and they did not expect for him to have plenty of profound strength left.

    This allowed Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong to ughter all the demonic cultivators that would otherwise flee the ce.

    Zhi Jiugong could not believe how easily these demonic cultivators would fall for Ji Yuan''s y acting.

    When they were done, Ji Yuan wasughing jovially. "The spiritual aura here is too rich! I can quickly recover my profound strength in this ce."

    Zhi Jiugong quietly appraised Ji Yuan with a new light; she knew that he was actually a very good sword cultivator and probably a super sword cultivator as well.

    "You are not afraid of them?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Actually yes but even the strongest big ogre cultivator seems weaker than Gu Dugu. I was expecting for them to transform and scare the hell out of me."

    Zhi Jiugong smiled, "They had more powerful brutal profound strength but overall, they are actually weaker than the draconian race. Luckily there are no draconian race in their midst or we will be in deep trouble."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "True¡­"

    He was suddenly interrupted by a chorus of naked human maidens who were all bowing down gratefully in front of him and they were all thanking him for saving them.

    Then he saw that Hua Xunzi was looking wretched but she did not cry. Instead, she began to walk feebly to the dead big ogre cultivator to search for her tattered celestial-step golden robe and her heaven-step divine sword.

    She did not thanks Ji Yuan or Zhi Jiugong and treated them as though they wereplete strangers.

    But Ji Yuan knew what was on her mind; it was because she had just gone through a huge humiliation in the hands of these demonic cultivators.

    The main reason why he knew what was on her mind was that he had gone through a simr experience when he was being humiliated by Little Princess. For a long time, he did not even want to talk about it or let anyone know about it. It was only when he had met Saintess Jian Yuluo that he got back his fighting spirit.

    JI Yuan raised his voice to say to the naked Hua Xunzi but his voice was gentle, "Do you want to join us? As our ally against the demonic cultivators? Don''t you want to avenge yourself?"

    Hua Xunzi had suddenly turned to look at Ji Yuan, unafraid that Ji Yuan would see her naked body and her leaking scenery between her two beautiful jade legs.

    She clenched her fists and firmly said quietly, "Count me in."

    Zhi Jiugong had suddenly sped forward as she took a new mystic robe for Hua Xunzi to wear, "Your golden robe needs some time for it to be fully repair¡­"

    She said gently, "Although my robe isn''t as good as your golden robe, you do need something useful. This mystic robe may be useful to you."

    This mystic robe was actually a heaven-step robe and was extremely difficult to obtain!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I am also in need of a new robe¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong hummed softly as she looked at him, "I''ve only female robes and not male robes. You are asking the wrong person here."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually trying to lighten the mood and he was now looking at the rest of the female humans, "There is no need to thank us. We have a much more dangerous mission here so we can''t bring any of you with us. Will you be alright if we leave you here?"

    A petite human maiden stared at Ji Yuan. Deep inside her, she was hoping to follow this great golden celestial but she knew that this was an impossible dream.

    So she answered on the behalf of all the rest of the freed captives, "We will be alright. We are all cultivators here. Once free, we can make our way back to our viges. It is just that we are unlucky to be captured by these monsters. Except for us, all the men were killed."

    Ji Yuan was looking a little awkward for he could see clearly her perked tits and her forest below her lower waist. And further below as well where the demon cultivators had tainted her...

    Ji Yuan nodded; this was the poor fate of the men in any battles. The first to die was always the men.

    He answered gently, "We don''t need their cultivation resources. The rest of you can take what you want. Just divide it fairly among yourself."

    As Ji Yuan did not want to linger in this ce to watch at the naked maidens, he awkwardly said to Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi, "Let''s go elsewhere."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded to his decision and she lent Hua Xunzi a helping hand as she was now too weak to even walk properly.

    When she looked at Hua Xunzi and remembered her naked enticing body, she knew that this maiden indeed had the most sinful body and she could easily capture the attention of any men.

    She took a nce at Ji Yuan and saw that he had disyed an disinterested look and he was also walking in front of them. When she saw that, she was quickly secretly relieved.

    However Ji Yuan may look disinterested but he was actually thinking that this Hua Xunzi really had the most sinful looking body. Even though she was now wearing a robe but Ji Yuan could visualize all her nakedness within and moreover, he knew that she was not wearing anything inside.

    This was actually the third time that he had met her.

    The first time was toward the end of the arena third and final trial. The second time was in the wilderness of the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she was talking to Little Princess. The third time was here and he could not imagine to find her in this poor state.

    Author Note:

    1. This is just the beginning of the Demonic Divine Realm arc. Just reading!

 Chapter 588 The Dark Phantom Citadel

    In the Dark Phantom Citadel;

    In the main audience hall where a group of 4 demonic liege lords were hotly in debate with their Dark Phantom sect leader.

    The Dark Phantom sect leader was an old big ogre and one who was also a peaked Great Profane Daemon. He was already approaching his ascension age and he had been hoarding various profound treasures to ensure that he would have an eventful ascension to the Deste Divine Realm.

    He called himself the Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming.

    Right now, he was in hot debate with his 4 liege lords for measures to be taken against the golden celestials.

    His 4 liege lords were all non-humans and they were all inmand of their respective powerful demonic race; all of them were all at the peaked Great Profane Daemon cultivation realm.

    The first liege lord was the red fiend faction that was led by Great Daemon King Maluk.

    The second liege lord was the beastman faction that was led by Beast King Zyrek the Super Great.

    The third liege lord was the orc faction that was led by Great Orc King Bao Buyao.

    The fourth liege lord was the subus faction that was led by the Subus Queen Minami.

    All 5 of them were arguing hotly what to do and to n their tactics ordingly to this dark disaster.

    Should theyb the Dark Phantom Forest, the Dark Phantom Mountains or to defend the divine mountain of the Dark Phantom Citadel?

    Every 500 years or so, the great disaster known as the Dark Golden Divine Cmity would descend upon their divine realm, bringing powerful golden celestials from the Celestial Divine Realm to their Demonic Divine Realm.

    In this divine battle, there would be uncountable number of demonic races that would be massacred by the golden celestials.

    When they had killed one golden celestial, their dead bodies would always disappear or if they were losing, they would use a golden talisman to escape.

    But their purpose was actually very clear; that was to loot and plunder from the demonic races.

    Although the demonic races were stronger than humanity, from which the golden celestials hade from, there were still many weak demonic races and demonic ns which would be threatened by them.

    Also, while the golden celestials may look weaker than the demonic races, they were all formidable cultivators with many profound skills and in terms of profound arts, the golden celestials were more formidable in their uses than the majority of the demonic races.

    Their daemon sages could give no answers why the golden celestials coulde and go every 500 years. But one thing was very clear, they were the mortal enemies of the demonic races.

    It was not to say the demonic races were weaker than the golden celestials but the stronger demonic races were shattered and few. Some like the Draconians, the Angels, the Eldars and the Infives were extremely formidable in all areas and not even humanity could stand a chance against them.

    The problem was right now, none of the major demonic races in the Dark Phantom Citadel were from the powerful demonic races.

    This Dark Golden Divine Cmity had actually started when thest of the humanity celestial n was destroyed by the demonic races thousands of years ago and repeated every 500 years.

    A long time ago, this divine realm was ruled by the powerful human cultivators and they had oppressed the various demonic races.

    The fondness for war among the human cultivators eventually gave the demonic races a chance to group together to form their demonic ns'' alliances and to destroy humanity.

    Humanity must be destroyed because their women were too beautiful while their men were too ugly!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Since the demonic races hade to dominate, they have been oppressing humanity to this day by making their women into their depraved ves until they were broken.

    Save for the Subus Queen Minami, all the others including Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming all had their own depraved human harem to y daily with.

    In the Demonic Divine Realm, beautiful maidens especially the chaste ones wouldmand a lot in high grade spirit stones while a depraved golden celestial wouldmand a worth in profound treasures depending on cultivation realm level, beauty and whether the depraved ve was chaste or not.

    The Subus Queen Minami snorted coldly as she unted her beautiful figure, "This must be your bad karma for torturing the humans over the years."

    Great Orc King Bao Buyao protested immediately, "You can''t say that. Your subus males are more ruthless than us in sexually depraving the female humans. And they are known perverts of the Demonic Divine Realm."

    The Subus Queen Minami icily said, "At least I do not. There are bad and good golden celestials just like there are good and bad in my subus race. If we can negotiate peace with them, isn''t this better?"

    Great Daemon King Maluk interrupted with a loud frown, "You think too na?ve, Minami. I say we should contact our head branch n the Major Dark Phantom Citadel for extra help¡­"

    The Orc King Bao Buyaoughed as he interrupted soundly, "You are the one who is na?ve. Do you think that our head demonic n would be so free to send some token reinforcements? We have so many daemons that are in the great profane daemon cultivation level here, do we need to fear from them?"

    Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming unhappily said aloud, "Have you forgotten how 500 years ago, there are 20 golden celestial great saints that attacked us while shouting for cultivation slips and profound treasures? They literally killed so many of our strongest demonic cultivators that till to this day, we are still trying to recover from their attacks."

    Beast King Zyrek the Super Great clenched his fists angrily, "Of course I remember! A few of them are even perverted enough not to spare the females of my beastman race! These perverts! They dare to y with my consorts, I shall y with their females!"

    Great Daemon King Maluk frowned, "And most of them eventually run away with a bastard grin on their faces by using their golden tailsmans. Some even dare to say to see us in 500 years after we have soundlly defeated them..."

    The Subus Queen Minami hummed amidst themotion, "You lot just disgust the hell out of me."

    All of a sudden Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming was convulsing uncontroble and one of his soul stones on his ne began to explode!

    All the other liege lords were startled and asked, "What has happened?"

    Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming was shaking with teething rage, "My son! My sessor and son Baozi Lama has just been killed! This must be works of these golden celestials¡­"

    He was suddenly shouting furiously now, "This means WAR! Pass my orders down. Kill all the human golden celestials. Spare none of them! Comb the Dark Phantom Forest for my son''s body! I will make the one that kills my son to die a most horrible death!"

    "My son! s my son! I have the intention of giving my 4 human maidens to you but s, you are dead now. I shall keep them for myself then¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. Mean while, these are what the demonic races are thinking about the ''invasion'' of the golden celestials like Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 589 The Arrogant Demonic Cultivators (1)

    A convey of 12 dark demonic cultivators were in the Dark Phantom Forest for their experiential training and to gain contribution points from their demonic n the Dark Phantom Citadel.

    None of them was above the fifth cultivation realm and hence, they did not have golden eyes.

    The leader of this group was a red fiend and he was also the strongest at the 4th cultivation realm.

    He turned to remind the birdman cultivator that was at the rear, "Remember this! You are the only one of us that can fly. If we catch sight of any of the golden celestials in the forest, flee to make your report to our liege lords and sect leader! It doesn''t matter if they are native golden celestials or not. This is already the perimeter of our sphere of influence in the Dark Phantom Forest. If they dare to appear in these parts then it would mean that they are a threat."

    An orc cultivator angrily said, "They are merely using us as a cannon fodder. These bastards."

    A male subusughed, "I, on the other hand, hope that there are female celestials among the new threats so I can feast upon them."

    A beastman cultivator immediately interrupted, "You are all not practical. There are more than 100 sectors in this Dark Phantom Forest and we won''t be so unlucky to meet any of the golden celestials."

    Another beastman cultivator agreed, "We got to be really unlucky to meet one of the golden celestials. Moreover this divine cmity doesn''t affect us that much. It is the higher level demonic cultivators that must be careful."

    An ogre cultivator nodded with a loud grunt, "That is right. In the past, I have heard many said that these golden celestials are not interested in fighting against our low levels demonic cultivators and they were more interested to fight the higher level demonic cultivators instead¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan in the form of a dark shadow had swooped from behind and had killed the birdman.

    Just as the rest of the 11 demonic cultivators were turning to face this new threat, Ji Yuan had raised his saintly divine sword with his power sword spirit and massacred all of them as he shed across them.

    His sword y was too fast and swift and in less than two blinks of an eye, all the 12 demonic cultivators, including the birdman were all killed by him.

    Ji Yuanughed, "It is your honor to be killed by the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Never mind, you can call me Great Demon Sword Ji Yuan for now. Muhahahaha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi had suddenly shed behind Ji Yuan and they were startled to see the dead bodies of the demonic cultivators that were scattered in front of them.

    Zhi Jiugong reprimanded Ji Yuan''s gently, "Why didn''t you wait for us? What if there are any dangers?"

    Hua Xunzi took a quick look around as she said slowly, "There doesn''t seem to be any of the high level demonic cultivators around. Or else this fight won''t be so clean cut and fast."

    Zhi Jiugong was too busy reprimanding Ji Yuan to take notice. After being told by Hua Xunzi, she took a quick scan at the dead demonic cultivators before she nodded, "Don''t do it again. We need to conserve our profound strength against the more powerful demonic cultivators."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuanughed as he got another 89 Points, "That is the problem with power cultivators like you. If you need to strike you have to strike hard to kill your enemies with your profound arts. And you will end up consuming plenty of your profound strength. But for me, I can kill them easily with my swiftness and the profound power of my sword stances. Haha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong sighed softly, "These are only weaker demonic cultivators and not the stronger ones. What if you have met the stronger demonic cultivators?"

    "Don''t worry," Ji Yuan chuckled aloud. "The spiritual aura here is like a top spirit mountain in my Deste Celestial Fraternity. I can readily recover my profound strength easily."

    While Zhi Jiugong was shaking her head, Ji Yuan was already counting his 1278 points and he had the intention to kill all the demonic cultivators in this vicinity.

    Hua Xunzi who had started off as a gloomy great saintess was moved toment to Zhi Jiugong in secret, "Is he ying a game here? Why is he so cheerful?"

    The reason why she had recovered some of her spirits was that immediately after she had regained some of her profound strength, Ji Yuan had said to her. "You will need this. That big ogre cultivator had actually destroyed your golden talisman."

    She was stunned by his gesture, "You don''t need yours?"

    Without a golden talisman, she was actually unable to return to her own divine realm and returned to the Great Valha Hall.

    Ji Yuan had smiled to her, "I have actually two. So it is just right for me to give you one. Don''t lose it again."

    To be honest, this was the very first time that Hua Xunzi was touched by a man and moreover he did not seem to have any interest in her too.

    She was now curious about him for he had two saintly divine sword and 2 sword spirits; these were rare to be found in a single cultivator. Moreover he was also a sword saint and he was what she could describe as a super sword cultivator.

    Zhi Jiugong on the other hand was still thinking shyly of that night when Ji Yuan had kissed her and they had copted like a dragon and a phoenix. This was a scene that she could not drop from her mind and whatever Ji Yuan said now, she was going to help him to fulfill all his wishes.

    If he wants to storm the Dark Phantom Citadel, she would follow after him, even if this means a certain death for her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly paused in his tracks for he had suddenly noticed that both maidens seemed to be rather slow in their walks and he was impatiently trying to check the demonic n ahead of him.

    "What is wrong?"

    Both Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi were startled by him as they quickly answered, "Nothing wrong¡­"

 Chapter 590 The Arrogant Demonic Cultivators (2)

    "What?!" We have eight parties that were either lost or cannot be contacted in the Dark Phantom Forest?" A sixth realm ogre demonic cultivator of the great daemon cultivation realm gasped with utter shock.

    One by one, the patrol parties were being exterminated as though the other side did not care if they had been found out.

    This was ridiculous!

    Moreover, none of the missing demonic cultivators had made their way back.

    He was in a group of 30 hunters and he was reading from the array stones in his hands.

    But he was not themanding leader of this party.

    Rather, this party had three powerful demonic cultivators of the profane daemon level, equivalent to a seventh realm golden saint level.

    Themanding leader was a beastman that was at the Profane Daemon level and he was also very close to advancing to the Great Profane Daemon level. In fact, he was stronger than most of the celestial great saints.

    This same beastman who called himself the Profane Daemon Shiba La was the most powerful demonic cultivator of his generation and he could even beat some of the Great Profane Daemons such as Great Profane Daemon Baozi, the son of their demonic n sect leader.

    After Great Profane Daemon Baozi had died, their demonic n sect leader the Dark Sect Leader Baozi Renming was so enraged that he had sent out 10 powerful groups of hunters to track down the killer of his son.

    This hunter group was not weak and everyone of them had a daemon sword and their own profound treasures.

    And this hunter group was named number 1. The rest of the hunter groups were named number 2 to 10.

    Profane Daemon Shiba La barked angrily, "Just how many golden celestials are we expecting to send out 10 groups of hunters?"

    An old red fiend cultivation called Old Daft of the sixth cultivation realm answered, "Judging from the field of destruction, I say at least six groups of them."

    Profane Daemon Shiba La frowned, "That is a lot. Is this information reliable?"

    Old Daft answered, "Based on our estimates, we won''t be wrong on this."

    Little did he know that he was wrong. It was actually Ji Yuan who were going around to flush out the experiential and patrolling parties.

    It was as though he knew where they were going.

    Profane Daemon Shiba La said unhappily, "We shouldn''t have cleared the deste monsters from these areas. They are our best defenders against the golden celestials."

    Old Daft smiled wryly, "We have to, or the deste monsters will pose a danger to our demonic cultivators and moreover this ce is too near to our Dark Phantom Citadel as well."

    All of a sudden there was a bright light that exploded in front of them and it startled everyone.

    It was because in front of them were hunter group number 4.

    Old Daft who was in charge of monitoring the hunter groups gasped aloud as he saw the light from the hunter group number 4 hadpletely vanished as he monitored the magic tool that was shaped like a lotus in his hand.

    "They have allpletely vanished¡­ this is impossible¡­"

    Profane Daemon Shiba La immediately barked through his magic tool stone which was a heaven-step profound treasure tomunicate among the hunter groups, "Hunter group 10, you are in very good position to investigate that bright light for you are the nearest. Moreover you are twice as strong as in a group than hunter group number 4. Go check the ce out first. I will be joining you in the shortest time!"

    After he had sent out his instructions, he immediately ordered the 29 other cultivators in his hunter group number 1, "Advance immediately! We are going to rip these arrogant golden celestials to many pieces!"

    As soon as he had given out the order, there was another tremendous brilliant re of profound energies that were being released and this time they could all feel the ground was shaking.

    Old Daft was holding onto his magic tool with trembling fingers, "Hunter group 10¡­ they are also¡­ wiped out¡­"

    Profane Daemon Shiba La was stunned, "They can''t have unlimited profound strength, right?"

    Old Draft was saying with trembling voice, "I have heard of an old legend. That one day, a Great Demon Sword Cultivator will appear to turn our world of cultivation upside down. Maybe today is this day¡­ can you feel the sword energies that are in the air?"

    Profane Daemon Shiba La was looking a little unsettled now; he could indeed feel the deadly sword energies that were in the air. Profound attacks would only leave behind profound energies and not the deadly prating power of the sword energies.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Usually profound defense can block off sword energies because there are not many powerful sword cultivators around that specialized in sword energies. Moreover sword energies will weaken very fast once it was projected.

    Usually a profound attack need to be 30% stronger than the opponent profound defense to do any damage to the cultivator or else the profound attack would only damage the profound animus.

    As for sword energies, although most of the time it is weak but the pentrating power is extremely strong and only require 50% or lesser, depending on their weapons and sword spirits to bypass a cultivator''s profound defense.

    Most profound defenses and auras would be sufficient enough to block off the sword energies. A powerful sword cultivator would need to have a powerful sword art, a high grade divine sword and also a sword spirit at the highest cultivation level in order to stand a chance against the powerful power cultivators.

    And it seemed to him that their enemy did possess the three criteria''s.

    Profane Daemon Shiba La muttered, "Don''t tell me our enemy has a supreme sword art and a celestial sword¡­"

    All of a sudden, a beautiful golden celestial had suddenly shed in their midst and he had raised his saintly divine sword with two sword spirits.

    He had suddenly disyed dozens of illusional swords in their midst and each of the swords had suddenly exploded into deadly burst of sword bursts.

    "Miracle art?!"

    "Saintly divine sword?!"

    "Two sword spirits?!"

    Profane Daemon Shiba La had estimated wrongly!

    But before he could mutter a word, Ji Yuan had sliced off his head with his ultimate sacred sword profound art as he sent a pir of light to kill Profane Daemon Shiba La and four others that were strong enough to withstand his exploding sword energies.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Not bad, you can tank my Thousands Sacred Swords."

    Such speed and power!

    In a few blinks of an eye, the entire hunter group number 1 waspletely massacred by Ji Yuan and he had received a total of 3378 points from the three hunter groups.

    Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi could not believe what they were seeing. Moreover they were moving faster than they had originally anticipated.

    Hua Xunzi muttered with disbelief, "I don''t believe it¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong was also in disbelief at the speed that Ji Yuan could absorb the spiritual auras from this ce. "In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the mysticws there actually lowered the recovery speed of the higher ranking cultivators while increasing the recovery speed of the lower ranking cultivators so that these two groups would not end up massacring each other in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Hua Xunzi looked at Zhi Jiugong, "You mean that because we are no longer in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now and therefore Ji Yuan''s profound energy recovery is now much faster?"

    Zhi Jiugong slowly nodded, "There are actually two types of sword cultivators. The normal ones and the sword energy cultivator. Sword energy cultivators are renowned for their insane recovery in profound energy. Never mess with them for they will wear us down slowly but surely for the ultimate kill."

    Hua Xunzi said awkwardly, "It is no wonder why he is looking so spirited."

    Zhi Jiugong smiled weakly, "They really need to send someone at the great saint level to slow Ji Yuan now. Right now, Ji Yuan''s profound power is stronger than the profound defense of these demonic cultivators and he is unstoppable because he can keep using his sword profound arts to block their profound attacks almost nonstop."

    Ji Yuan actually did not need profound defense when he had the profound power to cancel his oppoent''s profound attacks.

    Hua Xunzi looked at the dead demonic cultivators all around them and asked weakly, "Are you sure that we are not picking any of the profound treasures that are all over the ce?"

    Zhi Jiugong shook her head, "Ji Yuan says that this is against his martial honor. So usually he won''t loot from the dead cultivators that are killed in battle by him or he will have bad luck."

    Hua Xunzi sighed softly, "Bad luck? He actually believes in that? It''s no wonder why he looks so poor¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong was also looking awkwardly as she shed forward, "Well, he actually has a bag of five leaf clovers. Believe it or not. Come. Or we will soon lose track of him. He is moving too fast with these rich spiritual auras in the air."

    Hua Xunzi smiled weakly, "You just remind me not to pick a rich spiritual ce for me to duel with a sword saint."

 Chapter 591 The Divine Omen

    Dark Phantom Forest;

    Ji Yuan had suddenly made a detour to clean the other sectors of the Dark Phantom Forest.

    Zhi Jiugong asked him curiously, "Why do you do that for?"

    Even Hua Xunzi was looking at Ji Yuan with a weird look.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said, "I need to clear all the possible enemies that may attack from the rear so we won''t be ambushed from the back."

    Zhi Jiugong, Hua Xunzi: ¡­

    They were actually thinking why did he not just tell them that he was just looking for easy points?

    They had been in the Dark Phantom Forest for the past 9 days now and along the way, they had encountered several groups of demonic cultivators and deste monsters. So far, they had been victorious as there were no great profane daemon level so far, which was equivalent to a great saint level.

    Hua Xunzi had told them that there was actually an old male golden celestial that was with her but he got killedter on. He had told her that the time here flowed much faster at a rate of 10 to 1. So every 10 days here was actually 1 day in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Therefore, they still had plenty of time.

    This relieved Ji Yuan immediately for he did not want to spend more than 5 days in any ce.

    By the end of 9 days, Hua Xunzi had also regained most of her profound strength as the spiritual auras here was simply too rich.

    Just as they were about to march to across the heavy misty forest again after taking a short break, the entire dark heavens above seemed to be shaking violently and a rainbow column of light was seen opening up the dark heavens above.

    This startled Zhi Jiugong, Hua Xunzi and Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What is it?"

    Zhi Jiugong had disyed her fingers to divine rapidly as she gasped with shock, "This is actually a divine omen!"

    Hua Xunzi and Ji Yuan were perplexed, "What divine omen?"

    Zhi Jiugong said slowly as though she was in doubt, "A true immortal weapon is about to be birthed around here and that is why we are now seeing this strange divine omen."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What immortal weapon?"

    Zhi Jiugong inhaled deeply as though she was afraid of giving the wrong information, "Our heavenly relics can be made into divine swords of different grades. This immortal weapon is by far stronger than any divine weapons. In fact, if you manage to capture this true immortal weapon, you will also be able to ascend to the Immortal Realm with a 100% chance of sess."

    Ji Yuan looked really startled but there was also a look of excitement in his eyes, "An immortal weapon? Interesting. Is it an immortal sword?"

    Zhi Jiugong shook her head, "It isn''t just an immortal weapon. It is a true immortal weapon. A true immortal weapon cane in many forms and always contain awesome power. When it is birthed, the divine omen shall sh in a 10 000 miles radius."

    ? Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "10 000 miles radius?!"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "This means that we won''t be dealing with just the Dark Phantom Citadel but several demonic ns that would be arriving at this vicinity soon. That is because no one wants to give up the chance to obtain a true immortal weapon."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Hua Xunzi was also looking excited, "How long before the birth of this true immortal weapon?"

    Zhi Jiugong calcted with her fingers again, "Three days. We will have only 3 days before the birth of this true immortal weapon. And in 3 days, all the powerful demonic cultivators will also be arriving at the scene. To be honest, as this is their territories, we actually have no chance at all."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly, "Darn it¡­"

    At the Dark Phantom Citadel;

    The Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming had suddenly called for all the liege lords, great profane daemons and profane daemons to gather.

    He had summoned all the high level demonic cultivators and they numbered 66. Among them were 20 great profane daemons and some of them were the reclusive elders that had suddenly ended their cultivation retreat.

    It was more right to say that these elders hade on their own ord rather than being summoned to the Dark Phantom Citadel.

    The Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming said solemnly, "Everyone. I am sure that you know the reason why you are all here today. ordingly to our shamans, a true immortal weapon will soon be birthed very soon and this divine event shall happen in 3 days¡­"

    He inhaled deeply, "This true immortal weapon will be birthed in our territory and all the nearby demonic ns will surely be here to contest over this true immortal weapon¡­"

    "This means war with the other demonic ns and they will sure be sending their most powerful demonic cultivators here¡­"

    "I have already sent a message to our Major Dark Phantom Citadel for help and they will be sending 13 more of their most powerful great profane daemons to aid us now so we won''t be fighting alone."

    The Subus Queen Minami asked, "So we have 33 great profane daemons to fight against dozens of demonic ns. Is this enough?"

    Even the Great Daemon King Maluk was looking hesitant, "We will be heavily outnumbered. All the major demonic ns will surely be here as well."

    The Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming nodded slowly, "That may be the case but this time Draconian Master Darth Ya will also be among the 13 great profane daemons and let''s not forget he is one of the top 13 cultivation fighters in the entire Demonic Divine Realm. Also, the experts in our Major Dark Phantom Citadel also have a lot more powerful profound treasures than us and these profound treasures will be most helpful inbat¡­"

    "Our orders are to secure the true immortal weapon for our Draconian Master Darth Ya."

    Beast King Zyrek the Super Great growled, "And we are the cannon fodders for Draconian Master Darth Ya?! No way! Whoever is the destined demonic cultivator to own the true immortal weapon shall be its master!"

    The Great Orc King Bao Buyao mmed his heavy hammer onto the ground so hard that the ground began to shake violently, "Thews of the demonic race is the strongest shall lead and take. If the true immortal weapon falls into our hands, so be it!"

    The Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming smiled coldly, "Actually I do agree with everyone here. Whoever cany their hands on the true immortal weapon shall be its master. If I cany my hands on that true immortal weapon, I can also ascend to the immortal realm without any issue."

    Everyone was now shouting, "May the strongest be the master of this true immortal weapon!"

 Chapter 592 The Gathering Of The Demonic Clans (1)

    2 dayster;

    There was a huge shimmering glow of invincible light that was shaped like a giant egg shell on the surface of the ground. In the dark stormy heavens above were the divine omen and the two suns.

    And around this giant egg shell, hundreds of powerful demonic cultivators had gathered around it, sometimes they even had an open fight with each other!

    Ji Yuan naturally had to lie low for the past 2 days because the number of powerful demonic cultivators that hade to im this ''true immortal weapon'' was in the thousands and none of them were weak.

    There was actually an intense pressure that was in the vicinity and even for the seventh realm demonic cultivators, they could not even get close to the shinning chromium egg shell and had to camp more than 1 km away.

    As for the sixth realm and fifth realm cultivators, they had to stand very far away!

    Altogether there were now more than 30 demonic ns in the vicinity and the news of the descend of the true immortal weapon had really spreaded very fast. There were even several powerful hermit renegade cultivators as well who were nless and they were just trying their luck.

    All the demonic cultivators were divided and they had eveny down several powerful arrays in the area to oppose against each other.

    The situation was actually very messy now.

    The Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming actually did not expect to see so many demonic ns within a 10 000 miles radius; it seemed to him that every demonic n did indeed have the moles of the other demonic ns and hence that was why the news of the true immortal weapon had quickly spreaded.

    In just 2 days, numerous demonic ns had already gathered.

    The Dark Phantom Citadel was actually allied with three other demonic ns here, the Dark Spire Peaks, the Inferno Cavern and the Dark Myriad City. However at this moment, these 3 demonic ns were refusing to admit that they were allies and had evene to the territory of the Dark Phantom Citadel by refusing to back off.

    The most powerful of these opposing demonic ns were actually the Dark Sky Profound Sect, the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect; they were also the 3 major demonic ns to oppose the Major Dark Phantom Citadel.

    Among these three 3 major demonic ns, the Dark Sky Profound Sect had numerous cultivation experts but there was a power struggle in recent days and it was said that many of its expert cultivators were all killed.

    Therefore, the Dark Sky Profound Sect was not a threat now and instead it was the other two major demonic ns the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect that were the real threats.

    Luckily for the Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming, he was being supported by the Major Dark Phantom Citadel, who was also a powerful major demonic n.

    This time round, their Major Dark Phantom Citadel had sent their most powerful cultivation expert the Draconian Master Darth Ya to support them and he had brought alone 12 other powerful cultivation experts and most of them were the elders of the Major Dark Phantom Citadel with the peaked great profane daemon cultivation level!

    Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming was naturally apanied by his four liege lords and numerous high level demonic cultivators.

    His four liege lords were the Great Daemon King Maluk, the Beast King Zyrek the Super Great, the Great Orc King Bao Buyao and the Subus Queen Minami.

    Although he was the sect leader of the Dark Phantom Citadel, it was more correct to say that he was actually a minor branch head of this ce.

    When the Draconian Master Darth Ya was here, he was to be their acting boss and he would lead the entire operation.

    His objective was simple enough; even if he had to sacrifice the entire Dark Phantom Citadel, he had to obtain the true immortal weapon for himself and for the Major Dark Phantom Citadel!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    As Draconian Master Darth Ya was looking at the chromium eggshell, there was news that one of the top 13 cultivation experts in the Demonic Divine Realm had died from his injuries and he was from the Dark Sky Profound Sect.

    He was grinning immediately; it was because the Dark Sky Profound Sect had only a top cultivation expert and he was to be the next sessor as the dark demonic sect leader. Also this top expert demonic cultivator was also his bitter rival and now that he was dead, he was truly d.

    That would mean that the Dark Sky Profound Sect now had no true experts to fight him. Moreover he had heard that the Dark Sky Profound Sect had lost half of all their high level demonic cultivators in the recent conflict.

    And he was now expecting some major moves from the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect.

    True enough, hundreds of the top demonic cultivators from the Dark Heretic Alliance and Profane Obliteration Sect were suddenly attacking the camp of the Dark Sky Profound Sect.

    This time Draconian Master Darth Ya was shocked.

    It was because he had never expected for the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect to form an alliance. If that was so, then his Major Dark Phantom Citadel may well be their very next target!

    He quickly sent his demonic massagers with his orders, "I want to know everything about the conflict between these three ns and how many of the top demonic cultivators have actually died!"

    It was inevitable that the Dark Sky Profound Sect would be out of the picture very soon and would even flee from this ce. But he had to know how many top demonic cultivators from the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect would be left to face him.

    The demonic messengers that he had sent off were quickly back and he was surprised along with Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming and his four liege lords.

    "All 500 top demonic cultivators from the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect are all killed. This included 4 out of the 13 top demonic cultivators in the Demonic Divine Realm¡­ the Dark Heretic Alliance and the Profane Obliteration Sect are nowpletely out of the picture now."

    The jaws of the Dragon Master Darth Ya, Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming and his four liege lords were dumbfounded; this was impossible and it had only been such a short time?!

    The demonic messengers stammered awkwardly, "It is true. They are mostly killed by their new sect leader who was a veiled maiden in silver."

    The Dragon Master Darth Ya was startled, "Their new sect leader is actually so formidable?! This is impossible. She can''t possibly kill so many. What demonic race is she?"

    The demonic messenger answered in fright, "We think that she is the Dark Angel race¡­"

    The Dragon Master Darth Ya disyed a brooding look, "Even a Dark Angel isn''t that strong to kill almost 500 top demonic cultivators on her own. Did you see what techniques that she was disying?"

    The demonic messenger weakly said, "She just kills everyone instantly like tofu with her celestial sword. We have no idea on her exact strength."

    The Dragon Master Darth Ya frowned, "It is impossible. No top demonic cultivators can be in in one hit. What you are seeing is probably just an illusion that is projected by their defensive arrays. What exactly happen inside is another matter. You have all been fooled by this new sect leader! They are just trying to trick us into retreating from our positions in order toy their hands on the true immortal weapon!"

    This was also the conclusion that the other 30 plus demonic ns had concluded as well when they had received their demonic messengers'' reports on the major battle between these 3 major demonic ns.

    It was because the demonic cultivators were really good in using the illusional profound arts and they were actually not surprised.

 Chapter 593 The Gathering Of The Demonic Clans (2)

    In the mean time Ji Yuan was watching the developments that were gathering with interest.

    He had seen the chromium light in the Dark Phantom Forest and he saw that it was impossible for most of the powerful demonic cultivators to even get within 1 km of it due to the intense pressure that had appeared in its vicinity. Even flying was impossible.

    As for him, he could not even get close to within 1.5 km of the chromium light as he had weaker profound strength. Although he was sure that Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi would be able to get much closer.

    He saw that there were also numerous flying mounts, both divine and deste beasts that were being mounted by the demonic cultivators. Most of the flying was actually done near their camps rather than the shining chromium light.

    Then he had also witnessed hundreds of demonic cultivators attacking the camp of a single demonic n and these demonic cultivators were all fierce and even look extremely powerful. In fact he was able to identify two demonic n banners so it was actually two powerful demonic ns ganging up on one demonic n.

    But to his startled surprise, even to Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi, the attackers did not return from their attacks on the enemy camp and was seemingly swallowed up by their defensive arrays.

    The weaker demonic camp had actually won?!

    Ji Yuan actually found it hard to believe that there were actually no survivors.

    There were actually plenty of fighting sounds but 3 hourster, the fighting sound hadpletely vanished all of a sudden.

    What treacherous dangers actually lie within?

    He was actually not too eager to find out.

    His main concern was how to get his hands on that true immortal weapon and to face the thousands of powerful demonic cultivators in this ce?

    The problem was that the number was too plentiful and they had only three.

    Zhi Jiugong had told him, "Once the true immortal weapon has spawned, it will start to fly off and it will be surrounded by a powerful profound animus. Everyone will then be chasing after it to weaken its profound animus and to gain mastery over it."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This true immortal weapon will fly off by itself?"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "It is a sentient actually and it will move very quickly. All the thousands of demonic cultivators will then be trying to attack it with their best profound arts hoping to stop it and to gain mastery over it. It will be very, very messy."

    Ji Yuan was actually surprised that Zhi Jiugong knew so much about the true immortal weapons.

    He asked again, "How do you know so much?"

    Zhi Jiugongughed softly as she rolled her golden eyes to Hua Xunzi, "It is in some ancient lore that I''ve read previously."

    She had actually wanted to say that the Death Goddess Yun Chi had told her about it but because Hua Xunzi was here, she had twisted the story a little.

    Hua Xunzi said, "I don''t understand why we are here. Isn''t this the best time to attack their base now since everyone is here? It is not as if we stand a chance of obtaining this true immortal weapon."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuanughed before saying, "There are two main reasons. Firstly, it is a divine event that I have never seen before. So I want to witness the birth of a true immortal weapon. Secondly, who says we don''t stand a chance? If we don''t try, we shall never know. Maybe the true immortal weapon will even fly in our direction. Haha¡­"

    Hua Xunzi said weakly, "It is not as if we can weaken it with our profound arts. We are too few and didn''t you hear what Maiden Zhi Jiugong has said just now? The profound animus of this true immortal weapon requires hundreds of strong cultivators to weaken. Anyone who isn''t strong enough can''t even scratch its profound animus. That mean that you can''t even use your normal attacking strokes to stop it."

    Zhi Jiugong was forced to agree, "Even if the true immortal sword will run into your direction, thousands of demonic cultivators will then discover you. What will you do?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It isn''t like this true immortal weapon will y punk with us, am I right?"

    Hua Xunzi chuckled softly and she looked coquettishly at Ji Yuan, "You never know. Maybe the true immortal weapon actually hates you."

    She had changed us to you to tease Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t believe."

    Hua Xunzi teased Ji Yuan, "That is because you have killed too many demonic cultivators in recent days. I have heard that sentient weapons are typically drawn to the bloodlust of the cultivators."

    Zhi Jiugong gasped, "I have also heard something like this in the past."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "Please try another story to convince me. I won''t be fooled by the two of you so easily. Haha¡­"

    Then Ji Yuan be solemn as he pointed to two directions, "There are two ces with the most powerful demonic aura. One is the camp that has just defeated arge number of demonic cultivators. The other camp has the same banner as the ones that we have been attacking in recent days. These two camps represent the highest threat to us."

    Zhi Jiugong weakly looked at Ji Yuan, "Actually all the other ces are also dangerous for us. Did you not notice that the demonic cultivators that are all here are all extreme characters?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is a little true."

    Hua Xunzi turned to look at both Zhi Jiugong and Ji Yuan, "So what is our strategy now?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Our strategy now is to lie down and wait for an opportunity to act. In the mean time, I am going to explore the other camp first to look for weakness to exploit."

    Hua Xunzi smiled coyly, "You mean you are going to look at that subus female again? What is her name? They seem to call her Queen Minami if I did not hear it wrongly."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Of course not! With two great beauties here, why should I be looking at a non-human? Do you really think that I am a beast of a man?"

    With an awkward smile, Ji Yuan had sped away in the next instant.

    When he was gone, both Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi said at the same time, "Maybe."

    And they were bothughing jovially.

 Chapter 594 Succubus Queen Minami (1)

    Ji Yuan was now spying on the camp of the Dark Phantom Citadel.

    He was able to do so because he did not need to disy any profound animus for his stealth and moreover he had a weak profound animus so it was all too easy for him to dissipate itpletely.

    It was not actually true that he was trying to take a look at the Subus Queen Minami; he was just trying to look at the entire female subus race because they looked so interesting to him.

    The female subus race was all scantily dded only in their panties and there was only a thin strap of leather on their bosoms. Also, they had small horns that looked like wings on their heads.

    Right now Ji Yuan was observing the high level female subus cultivators as they shed their butts to him and he was actually drooling with interest.

    The Subus Queen Minami was extremely arousing in her sexuality and moreover she was also extremely enticing as Little Princess. Moreover, she was just wearing a red strap and a thin red panties.

    Ji Yuan was grinning to himself: Why is she shing her red panties and butt in front of my eyes. Haha¡­

    Xiang Li was also drooling: Woot, they wear so little in this ce.

    Anyang said weakly: Are you guys so interested in this matter than the true immortal sword?

    Ji Yuan said to Anyang with a chuckle: This is a cultural exchange to broaden our experiences. You don''t want others to say that we are all frogs in a well, do you?

    Xiang Li was giggling: Afterst time when everyone wasughing at us for not knowing that we can be viewed in the arena trial, we are now smarter now.

    Ji Yuanughed: That is right. We''re now smarter than before now¡­

    As he said to Xiang Li, he was already following the swaying butt of the Subus Queen Minami as she checked the perimeter of the camp with her divine sense.

    The reason why Ji Yuan knew her name was because he had overheard her subordinates addressing her.

    Right now, the Subus Queen Minami was talking to two other of her subordinates and they were also female subus.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "This is too sinful¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Subus Queen Minami was looking at the direction of Ji Yuan and a burst of profound animus had burst forth from her and a pair of ck wings had suddenly appeared on her back.

    Her two subordinates had also disyed their ck wings and they were taking flight behind their Subus Queen Minami.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he had realized that he had been discovered.

    When he had muttered out that this is too sinful, he did not expect that he would be heard.

    Ji Yuan''s ultra sharp eye sight could see the horn wing of Subus Queen Minami moving in his direction and he was startled that her hearings were so superb.

    Ji Yuan had immediately shed away because if he did not do so, more of the powerful demonic cultivators would soone after him.

    The Subus Queen Minami sped after Ji Yuan as she hummed coldly, "What do we have here? It is a pesky little golden celestial that thinks that he can outrun us? He is dreaming!"

    But she was also astonished that Ji Yuan was moving faster than she had expected.

    Subus was actually not capable of true flight but their extra wings actually gave them an advantage in movement speed.

    Right now, she was witnessing a golden celestial that could move equally as fast and he knew that he had been spotted the instant that she had looked in his direction even though she could not see him.

    The Subus Queen Minami soon stopped in a clearing and she was frowning.

    Her two subordinates had also stopped and they were using their divine sense to find the intruder.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    They hadpletely lost the golden celestial as he did not disy any of his profound animus even when he was running. Therefore, it was easy for them to lose track of him.

    The Subus Queen Minami said slowly and her voice was alluring, "Be careful. He may be leading us to an ambush."

    One of her subordinates called Miya said cautiously, "He sure is quick. We are too near to our camp. He may not be stupid to attack us in this ce."

    The Subus Queen Minami slowly nodded but she was constantly looking at the dark shades of the forest, "This one may be just a scout for the more powerful golden celestials. This is already the second time that he is here. And he maye a third time."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he watched them keenly from his hiding ce: Huh? I have already been spotted a second time? They sure have excellent hearings. Next time I must be more careful. This Subus Queen is not simple¡­

    But he was also growling: I will be a mere scout for a more powerful celestial? I am actually the leader...

    But he was soon grinning again: This ce is better suited to see their boobs and butt¡­ haha¡­

    The Subus Queen Minami said to her two subordinates, "The two of you can go back first. I will linger for a little to check for any alien presence while here and will join youter."

    The two subordinates immediately nodded before they sped back to where they hade from.

    After a while, the Subus Queen Minami began to smile as she yfully moved her fingers along her long flowing hair and it was in a slow seductive manner to disy her full sexuality.

    Ji Yuan began to wonder, "What is she doing?"

    Then to his startled bulging golden eyes, he saw that the Subus Queen Minami was starting to strip, first she removed her top strap and then she slowly pulled down her red panties between her legs.

    Ji Yuan almost made a wolf whisper at the scene.

    Then the Subus Queen Minami started to dance slowly and really seductively as she disyed her perked full boobs and her naked butt.

    Ji Yuan chuckled to himself: This is too sinful¡­

    Xiang Li asked: What is she doing?

    Anyang solemnly reminded them: She knows that we are here so this is her trick to find out where we are. Once we have revealed ourselves, she will attack us with everything that she got and will even alert her group.

    Xiang Li asked: So this is actually a trick?

    Ji Yuan answered: Yea, this is one of the oldest tricks in the books. It seems to me that she has the ability to hear even our heartbeats. Unfortunately for her, I am able to stop my heartbeat for a long time due to my Control Heartbeat profound art that I have found.

    Xiang Li: And so this will be a free stripping show?

    Ji Yuanughed: Haha, it is a safe and free stripping show.

    With that both Ji Yuan and Xiang Li were bothughing nonstop.

    Just as the Subus Queen Minami was thinking that she was indeed mistaken, Ji Yuan had suddenly made a crack on the tree top that he was concealing when he was edging for a closer look...

    Ji Yuan awkwardly looked at Xiang Li and Anyang: This is really a mistake¡­

    "There!"

    The Subus Queen Minami had suddenly turned to look at the ce where the sound hade from and that was when Ji Yuan was hiding!

    And she had shouted again as she startled to sped toward Ji Yuan''s hidden location, "There you are!"

 Chapter 595 Succubus Queen Minami (2)

    The Subus Queen Minami had disyed her talons that were as sharp as a heaven-step divine weapon as she had shed into the direction of her concealed foe.

    All of a sudden she saw a really beautiful man with golden eyes and was startled for she had never seen anyone as beautiful as him, not even among the subus males.

    This beautiful golden celestial had suddenly raised his divine sword and she was startled to see that it was a saintly divine sword and the profound power that was being disyed was that of a miraculous divine realm profound art. What was more, he had disyed two sword spirits hastily and his profound power had suddenly exceeded her own profound power.

    Needless to say, she was sent flying back with a thunderous crash onto the ground!

    The Subus Queen Minami was startled; instead of a scout, she had met a super cultivator of the golden celestials!

    Ji Yuan was also awkward because he was now looking at the widely opened legs of the Subus Queen Minami as she crashed onto the ground.

    He muttered, "This is too sinful¡­"

    The Subus Queen Minami was flustered as she quickly recovered from her fallen pose and she had weaved a think silk robe around her while waiting for Ji Yuan to attack her.

    She gasped aloud, "Who are you?"

    However Ji Yuan had turned around and had fled in the next instant.

    Just before he had left, he was saying awkwardly as he randomly put a title for himself, "Sword Demon Ji Yuan¡­"

    At this time, her two subordinates had also returned; the minute that their Subus Queen Minami had used her profound art, they would know for they were soul linked together by a profound magic tool.

    When the three of them fight as three as one and one as three, there was barely any cultivator saved for the top 13 demonic cultivators that could actually be their match.

    The subus named Miya asked softly, "Queen Minami, shall we pursue him?"

    The Subus Queen Minami shook her head with a still flushed look for she knew that this intruder was staring with his big eyes on her earlier, "No Miya and Misa. He is much stronger than us."

    Misa asked, "How can this be? What is his profound power strength?"

    The Subus Queen Minami took out a profound orb as she stared nkly at it, "It is 4040¡­"

    Miya said, "4040 profound power isn''t that strong. We can easily hit 5000-6000 with our most powerful profound arts."

    The Subus Queen Minami showed them her talons, "Use your divine sense and tell me what did you see."

    Misa was startled, ''This is profound sword energies?"

    Miya was also equally startled, "He is a sword energy cultivator?"

    The Subus Queen Minami said quietly, "Before you can even muster your profound power of 5000 to counter attack him, I am afraid that you may already be the victim of his saintly divine sword. At least, I can''t and my profound aura isn''t strong enough to withstand his attacks either."

    Miya was stunned, "He has a saintly divine sword?"

    The Subus Queen Minami nodded, "And two sword spirits and I can tell that he isn''t using his full profound strength either. It was a split-second attack that was upon me and I had lost my bnce."

    Misa was dumbfounded, "Two sword spirits? What monstrous talent is this? Isn''t this quite impossible to obtain two spirit spirits? Won''t the power of the sword spirits negate each other?"

    The Subus Queen Minami said with a perplexed look, "I don''t know. But his sword spirits did not appear on his forehead; instead they had appeared on each side of his forearm."

    Miya was startled, "He has the power to transfer his sword spirit to his forearm?"

    Misa was curious, "What is his name?"

    The Subus Queen Minami muttered slowly, "He called himself the Sword Demon Ji Yuan¡­"

    Miya had suddenly said with a startled voice, "Don''t tell me that he is the rumored Great Demon Sword that will one day turn our divine realm upside down?"

    Misa gasped, "Isn''t this just a fabled story?"

    The Subus Queen Minami looked quiet for a while, "Hmm, a sword cultivator? And the true immortal weapon will be birthing at this time too?"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Then she smiled weakly, "I am more curious who would get their hands on this true immortal weapon. It is an event that won''t repeat for at least 10 000 years."

    Miya and Misa immediately bent to their knees, "We will surely get our Queen this true immortal weapon, even if we sacrifice our lives for her dreams!"

    The Subus Queen Minami nodded slowly, "Thank you. I have always thought of the two of you as my sisters and never my subordinates."

    All of a sudden there was a loud profound trumpet from their camp as the heavens began to echo with all kinds of sounds and warnings.

    The Subus Queen Minami was startled, "What is this? This is the highest rm that is being sounded. Let''s go back and take a look first!"

    Miya and Misa were nodding too.

    Immediately they had sped to where their camp was and they saw that many of the demonic cultivators were rushing to the scene of where the shining chromium light was.

    It was not just their camp but thousands of demonic cultivators were all rushing from all over the Dark Phantom Forest and they all had a shocked expression.

    It was not before long that Subus Queen Minami and her subordinates was able to see what was happening.

    From where the Subus Queen Minami had appeared, the Draconian Master Darth Ya and many of the leaders of the Dark Phantom Citadel and Major Dark Phantom Citadel had also appeared on a slope overlooking the shining chromium eggshell.

    A veiled maiden in silver robe was seen attempting to break the pressures of the shining chromium egg shell and everyone could see that she was now within 0.8 km from it, the furthest of any of the demonic cultivators!

    "Isn''t this the new demonic sect leader of the Dark Sky Profound Sect?"

    "Why is she here?"

    "This isn''t the time yet for the true immortal weapon to be birthed¡­"

    "She is trying to force her way into that divine chromium light?"

    "Is it even possible?"

    "She won''t be able to make it."

    "No one has the profound strength to do so."

    "Look, she is already slowing down and every step will be doubly hard¡­"

    "But still 800 m is already extremely formidable for a cultivator¡­"

    "Maybe she is just trying to show us how strong the Dark Sky Profound Sect really is?"

    "It is no good. Hundreds of our demonic cultivators have already tried to approach the true immortal sword but they have all failed. She isn''t going to make it."

    "Look! She is still pushing her way forward!"

    Indeed the veiled maiden in silver robe was still walking step by step toward the shining chromium light and she had now lifted her right fingers in front of her to breakthrough the intense pressure.

    "She isn''t even using her daemon sword?"

    "She will break her fingers¡­"

    "It useless for a great profound daemon profound aura to try to withstand this intense pressure. No matter how strong her profound aura can be enhanced by her internal profound arts, she is only a little better than us and she would only be expending her profound strength¡­"

    "Once she has expended her profound strength, isn''t this the best time to attack her?"

    "This is indeed a great golden opportunity for us to wipe out the Dark Sky Profound Sect¡­"

    The Draconian Master Darth Ya was also saying the same to his demonic cultivators, "When that foolish sect leader of the Dark Sky Profound Sect has expended her profound strength, she will be thrown out of the intense pressure. I want all of you to attack her immediately!"

    Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming and the rest of the powerful demonic cultivators from the Dark Phantom Citadel and the Major Dark Phantom Citadel had all answered resoundingly, "Yes Draconian Master Darth Ya!"

 Chapter 596 The Birth Of The True Immortal Weapon (1)

    Ji Yuan was actually on his way back to where Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi were after his fateful encounter with the Subus Queen Minami.

    He was not about to fight against three Great Profane Daemons which was equivalent to that of the great saint level.

    3 vs. 1, it was actually a fight that was stacked against him.

    Moreover, it was also against his martial spirit dao to fight against three scantily dressed maidens even though they were from a difference race.

    It seemed to him that with Subus Queen Minami around the camp of the Dark Phantom Citadel, it was a little difficult for him to spy on their camp.

    Maybe he should try the other camps?

    Anyang said to Ji Yuan: I told you so! We should try the other camps. These subus all seem to have such superior hearings! And you want to test your limits!

    Ji Yuanughed weakly: You never know till you have try. Haha¡­

    All of a sudden he heard the sounds of dozens of trumpet sounds blowing from all directions.

    His first thought to Xiang Li and Anyang was: Eh? We''ve been discovered?

    Anyang panicky said: Or maybe worse. We''ve been surrounded!

    Ji Yuan frowned at that but he soon discovered that all the profound animus of the demonic cultivators were actually heading toward the shining chromium light that looked like an egg shell. Within it was a dark shadow but he could not see what sort of a true immortal weapon it was.

    And yes, he was already back to investigate the uproar since he was not the object of their targets.

    He soon saw the swaying butt of a veil maiden in silver robe that was surrounded by a red aura and she was attempting to force her way through to the intense pressure field of the light of the true immortal weapon.

    His first thought was: Her butt looks so familiar.

    Xiang Li chuckled: All the butts of the maidens look so familiar to you.

    Anyang also seconded Xiang Li with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly: That is so true.

    His second thought was that it was impossible for her to traverse the pressure field with her current cultivation realm.

    His third thought was that he was impressed by her silver robe which seemed to radiate a powerful defensive animus and as he strained his divine sense upon her silver robe, he quickly discovered that she was wearing an emperor-step silver robe.

    He began to curse silently: These demonic cultivators are all so rich. Half of them is even wearing heaven-step garbs.

    Xiang Li giggled: And some of them are not even wearing anything at all.

    Ji Yuanughed: That is so true.

    But he soon be solemn: What is she trying to do? Both of you are thousands old spirit entities. Surely you know something since the two of you are so old?

    Anyang frowned: I am not even a million year old. How can I be old?

    Xiang Li giggled: Same here. We are very, very young.

    Ji Yuan pped his face as though he had said something wrong: Alright, both of you are not old. Please tell me what she is trying to do?

    Anyang smiled wryly: She is trying to force her way through to the chromium light. If she can do so then the true immortal weapon will recognize her as the mother and will follow her. So there is no need to wait for the full 3 days to be up.

    Ji Yuan was startled: This won''t do! The true immortal weapon belongs to us! What if this was a sword? Then it will be most useful to me, right?

    Xiang Li growled softly: The true immortal weapon won''t be as useful as us.

    Anyang hummed coldly: With your puny profound strength, can you even carry a true immortal sword?

    Ji Yuan could feel that Xiang Li and Anyang were envious for they were only saint-step divine swords.

    Ji Yuan weakly said to them: There is no need to be upset over a true immortal sword, right? Maybe it won''t even be a sword too.

    Xiang Li said unhappily, "The true immortal weapon will be a sentient spirit of utmost power. It may well be a she and she may well be a lusty vixen.

    Anyang nodded: I totally agree with this conclusion.

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said: Erm but are you all going to stay here until she could seize that true immortal sword? Shouldn''t we make a move too?

    Anyang giggled: Don''t worry. With her puny cultivation strength, she can''t even get close to the chromium light.

    Ji Yuanughed: Then I am indeed thinking too much.

    As they watched, all of a sudden the veiled maiden in silver robe had suddenly raised both her fingers upward and her cultivation realm had been raised to the peaked of the 8th immortal cultivation realm!

    And she was suddenly moving within 600m of the chromium light!

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded as he muttered out of his soul sea, "8th cultivation realm?! Is it even possible?"

    Not only was Ji Yuan dumbfounded, all the other demonic cultivators including the Dragon Master Darth Ya was also dumbfounded by her sudden increase in cultivation realm!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Many were now asking:

    "It is impossible for her to raise her cultivation realm to the peak of the 8th cultivation realm¡­"

    "Is she using a spirit animus to enhance her cultivation realm?"

    "I don''t see any spirit animus¡­"

    "If she is really in the peaked 8th cultivation realm, then it is not a surprise that so many of the demonic cultivators were killed by her¡­"

    "That must be her limit¡­"

    "She is probably using some powerful profound arts to increase her limits but it won''tst forever¡­"

    "Or she has consumed some blood pills? I have heard that the Nirvana Blood Pill is able to increase one''s cultivation realm by a full level but after that, her attainment will be ruined¡­"

    "She is too ruthless to use the Nirvana Blood Pill¡­"

    "I am surprised that she can even find one of these Nirvana Blood Pills in the first ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked Anyang and Xiang Li: Are you sure that she won''t be able to reach that true immortal weapon?

    Anyang and Xiang Li both eximed together: We are absolutely sure about this! No eighth realm cultivator will be able to approach that chromium light!

    Ji Yuanughed: That is so good to hear.

    So he continued to monitor her or rather, he could only see her swaying butt as she moved little by little.

    Finally at the 300m mark, she began to slow down and it seemed that this was her absolute limit!

    Ji Yuan saw that Xiang Li and Anyang were both right.

    Now all the demonic cultivators were waiting for the bacsh to happen as she was too deep within the pressure field and her profound strength must be consuming at a rapid rate!

    Then the veiled maiden in silver robe raised her fingers again and her cultivation realm exploded into half-step 9th cultivation realm!

    Everyone was stunned, including Ji Yuan and he had almost fallen down from the tree.

    "9th cultivation realm?"

    "Seriously?"

    "Even half-step into the 9th cultivation realm is still a 9th cultivation realm¡­"

    "Half a step into the 9th cultivation realm won''t help her much. At most she can only move 200m within that chromium light¡­"

    But all of a sudden the cultivation realm of the veiled maiden in silver robe had been increased again and it had be the initial tier of the 9th immortal positioning.

    Everyone was startled for she had be a full 9th immortal positioning demonic cultivator!

    "What the hell is going on?"

    "She is now a 9th rank immortal?!"

    The veiled maiden muttered softly and all the great profane demons who were waiting to attack her within the 1000m mark could actually hear her, "This¡­ is still not enough actually. I guess that I have to do my best a little¡­"

    All of a sudden the veiled maiden in silver robe had raised her cultivation realm once again to the middle tier of the 9th immortal positioning.

    All the demonic cultivators including Ji Yuan was stunned.

    Ji Yuan asked Xiang Li and Anyang awkwardly, "What are you saying just now?"

    He had actually said it aloud since there was no one around him.

    Anyang muttered weakly: I am just saying that even with your 8th immortal rank that isbined with your spirit animus, it is impossible for you to obtain that true immortal weapon. I am not referring to that veiled maiden.

    Xiang Li giggled awkwardly: Yeah! That what I mean as well.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan asked them and he was solemn, "Listen. I want that immortal weapon to be in my hands. If that true immortal weapon were to fall into the hands of these vicious demonic cultivators, we will all be ughtered without a mercy."

    Anyang awkwardly said: With or without a true immortal weapon, can you beat that 9th realm immortal demonic cultivator?

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes: That is a very good question¡­

 Chapter 597 The Birth Of The True Immortal Weapon (2)

    The veiled maiden in silver robe continued to move toward the shining chromium light and now she was within 100m.

    Many of the demonic cultivators including Ji Yuan was now panicky when they saw that!

    No one here wanted to let her obtained the true immortal weapon as her own weapon!

    However none of them could do anything to her unless the intense pressure field could force her out; it was because their profound arts would not even touch her from this range and moreover the intense pressure of the entire field would dissipate all the profound power of their profound arts the minute that it was being disyed.

    So it would not even rmed her to the outside profound attacks; if all the demonic cultivators could not even get close to 1000 m of the chromium light then all the profound attacks would also be dissipated within 1000 m because the intense pressure was like another invisible wall of force!

    Right now, even the Draconian Master Darth Ya was panicky and he had transformed into his draconian form and he had lifted his celestial-step daemon sword to charge within 900m of this intense pressure field.

    No matter what had happened, he was not going to let this new sect leader of the Dark Sky Profound Sect obtained the true immortal weapon!

    He was also grinning too;

    Firstly, he knew that he was not going to get close to the veil maiden at all. But by doing so, he was going to demonstrate his lofty profound strength to all the demonic cultivators here and he would gain new renown in the annals of the demonic cultivators!

    Secondly, even when he got rebounded by the intense pressure field, he knew that there was no one strong enough among the thousands of demonic cultivators that would defeat him. Moreover he was also surrounded by a hundred of his own powerful demonic cultivators.

    Thirdly, he would then pretend to be injured and waited for the other demonic cultivators to weaken the veiled maiden and then he would seize the true immortal weapons for himself.

    This was killing 3 birds with one stone!

    Ji Yuan was also not going to allow the true immortal weapons to be seized when all of a sudden he was approached by Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi!

    He was startled, "How did you find me?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled awkwardly, "You was growling so hard. We can all hear you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he pointed to the distant scene, "Did you all see that? That veiled maiden with the red aura has suddenly raised her cultivation realm to the 9th cultivation realm and she is on the verge of obtaining the true immortal weapon. She must be stopped at all costs!"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "We have seen that as well. It is impossible for us to stop her. Even if we want to stop her, we should let the thousands of demonic cultivators stop her first?"

    Hua Xunzi turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Do you have any idea how to stop her?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Actually although I can''t stop her but do you agree that once she has obtained that true immortal weapon, almost all her profound strength will be expended?"

    Hua Xunzi nodded slowly, "I guess so. So you will be striking at her?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course not immediately. I will let the others weaken her first before I kill her for her true immortal weapon?"

    Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi: ???

    Ji Yuanughed, "And now I have the strongest pig that has just delivered himself to me¡­"

    He grinned as he gathered Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi near to him, although this was just an excuse to touch them. "This is my n¡­ and I need the two of you to be my backup¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    The veiled maiden in silver robe was now within 50m of the shining chromium light that was shaped like an egg shell!

    It was also at the same time that the Draconian Master Darth Ya had been rebounded by the intense pressure field that was generated by the chromium light of the true immortal weapon.

    Even with his dragon transformation bodily strengthening profound art, Draconian Master Darth Ya was only able to get within 750m before his profound strength was expended and he had coughed a bout of blood as he was being flung from the intense profound field that he was in.

    All of a sudden, there was a speeding light that had rushed from the towering forest fridge of the vicinity.

    It was actually Ji Yuan with his deste cherubim spirit animus and he had sped to where the Draconian Master Darth Ya was being flung and he had suddenly unsheathed his two saintly divine swords with his two sword spirits.

    In that very instant, he had disyed his grand cross and the profound might of his middle 8th cultivation realm; he had suddenly ripped Draconian Master Darth Ya apart in that very instant!

    When the Draconian Master Dark Ya had died, he simply could not believe that his super draconian body would be ripped apart so suddenly and he did not even know who his foe was!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Right now, ji Yuan had disyed his middle 8th cultivation realm as he mocked softly to the Draconian Master Darth Ya, "You know. I know your little tricks when I was just a five year old. You didn''t expect this, right? Haha¡­"

    Then he had turned to the other demonic cultivators to say with a grin, "Do I have any other challengers?"

    All the demonic cultivators were stunned by Ji Yuan''s actions. It was because they were all nning to attack the veiled maiden when she was done. It was because when she was done, the intense pressure field would also disappear.

    Ji Yuan only had one objective and he could tell that the Draconian Master Darth Ya was his strongest opponent. Therefore he could not afford to have one strong opponent lying in wait around.

    And when he saw that the Draconian Master Darth Ya had foolishly entered into the intense pressure field to expend his profound animus needlessly, he was delighted. It was because he could second guessed the ns of the Draconian Master Darth Ya and he had the intention to use it against him.

    This was a most excellent golden opportunity to kill this Draconian Master Darth Ya that he had been spying for days and he was not one to waste it even it means exposing his identity.

    He was nning to run away anyway and to watch the show between the veiled maiden and the rest of the demonic cultivators for a while, since she was so close to obtaining the true immortal weapon. And then he would appear to seize her true immortal weapon.

    And of course, he would obtain some points too from killing Draconian Master Darth Ya.

    He was delighted that he had actually obtained 2000 Points from this Draconian Master Darth Ya and it was more points than the others!

    Subus Queen Minami was startled that it was the Ji Yuan earlier and she had never thought that he would be empowered to the 8th cultivation realm by his spirit animus.

    Miya and Misa grasped with shock, "Isn''t this the Sword Demon Ji Yuan?"

    Dark Phantom Sect Leader Baozi Renming and many of the demonic cultivators were already rushing to attack Ji Yuan, "Who are you? And why did you kill our Draconian Master Darth Ya! You shall pay heavily for this!!!"

    "Look!"

    "He isn''t one of us and he isn''t a demonic cultivator¡­"

    "His aura isn''t red¡­"

    "He is a golden celestial¡­"

    "8th realm cultivator¡­"

    "With two saintly divine swords and two sword spirits¡­"

    "This one also a monstrous talent¡­"

    "Can we win him?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am your Grand Daddy the Sword Demon Ji Yuan!"

    Now it was time to run; he was quite confident that he was able to outrun them all since their primary motivation would still be the veiled maiden and not him, so they would not actually be using their full profound strength. However he would be using his full profound strength till he was able to escape and he got two helpers to assist him at the fridge; they were Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi, two great saintesses.

    At the same time he had raised his sword to send one demonic cultivator from the Major Dark Phantom Forest to fly off and swung with his another sword to send the Great Daemon King Maluk crashing onto the ground!

    In the next split second, a weaker red fiend cultivator was nailed onto the ground by Ji Yuan''s fast swords!

    One must know that none of the demonic cultivators within 1 km of the intense pressure field was weak and they were all seventh realm demonic cultivators.

    ? When the thousands of demonic cultivators saw that Ji Yuan was fighting with the cultivation experts from the Dark Phantom Citadel, they were quite amused and did not know whether they should step in to help for their real target was the true immortal weapon.

    In that split second when Ji Yuan was about to flee, the veil maiden had suddenly turned around with a startled look and her beautiful voice echoed, "Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan had frozen all of a sudden as he stared at the veil maiden for he had recognized Bai Qianfeng''s beautiful voice, "Qianfeng, it is you? Why do you have red aura? When did you get your new silver robe?"

    Xiang Li was also stunned as she rebuked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, didn''t you say that you can recognize your woman with or without clothes?

    Ji Yuan frowned: I did say I find her butt so familiar.

    Anyang stammered: I think our n is screwed up now, right?

    Ji Yuan answered bitterly: Naturally we have to change our n now because no one is allowed to green us!

 Chapter 598 The Birth Of The True Immortal Weapon (3)

    Ji Yuan was now shouting loudly as he taunted all the demonic cultivators, "All of you bastards. Come and fight me. Are you going to just stand there and be a cowardly tortoise? Where is your pride in being a demonic cultivator?"

    Xiang Li was asking: Big Brother, what are you doing? You are drawing fire to yourself?!

    Anyang was also stunned: That is right¡­

    Ji Yuan said to them with a weak chuckle, "I have just changed my mind now and I will fight them all."

    Xiang Li asked: Why?

    Anyang weakly said: He don''t want these demonic cultivators toy their hands on his Consort Bai Qianfeng and he wants to look good in front of her¡­

    Ji Yuan answered breathlessly as he was still fighting the demonic cultivators: Wrong. I have to endure until my Qianfeng is able to obtain the true immortal weapon!

    When Ji Yuan had said that, dozens of demonic cultivators from all the other demonic ns were now rushing forward to attack Ji Yuan.

    One must know that 70% of the demonic cultivators were actually unable to attack Ji Yuan even if they had wanted to. It was because they were unable to approach the intense pressure field. So they had to wait bitterly.

    In the mean time, all the strongest demonic cultivators were now calling for blood and they had the intentions to rip Ji Yuan apart now.

    Bai Qianfeng had now moved with 40m of the shining chromium egg shell and she had turned to echo her voice, "None of the prot¨¦g¨¦s of my Dark Sky Profound Sect is to attack this Sword Demon Ji Yuan. Rather, kill anyone that dares to attack him!"

    Ji Yuan weakly thought to himself: Your so-called subordinates won''t listen to you. It is suicide trying to attack all the other demonic ns for one great celestial¡­

    All of a sudden he was startled to see the camp of the Dark Sky Profound Sect exploding into loud yells and they were actually attacking all the other demonic cultivators.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see this sort of thing happening and was startled that his Qianfeng couldmand such loyalty from her prot¨¦g¨¦s¡­

    He did not know that Bai Qianfeng had single handed destroyed two major demonic cultivators and in the Dark Sky Profound Sect, she was like their dark goddess and her words were the decrees. That was why all the demonic cultivators from the Dark Sky Profound Sect were now attacking the rest of the demonic cultivators.

    Actually Ji Yuan was not weak too.

    One by one Ji Yuan had killed one powerful demonic cultivator after another; it was because he was simply moving too fast and his 8th cultivation realm had no opposition in this intense pressure field.

    As for the demonic cultivators that were attacking all around him, all their movements and profound strength had a big discount as they engaged Ji Yuan and instead Ji Yuan was now ughtering them.

    In fact with so many of them gathering around him, Ji Yuan''s ultimate grand cross miracle sword art was able to kill dozens of high level demonic cultivators in a single disy, stunning hundreds of demonic cultivators who were overwhelmed by Ji Yuan''s profound power.

    "What is this sword art?!"

    "Advance! We are all many and he is only one!"

    "We are actually getting ughtered by him¡­"

    "I have managed to survive 3 hits from him, he isn''t that strong¡­"

    "My elder just died!"

    "We can''t even trap him¡­"

    "The intense pressure here works against my profound attacks and weaken it¡­"

    "I am dying¡­"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    "He is a 8th realm cultivator. Can we win?"

    "We are the strong demonic cultivators. We don''t need to fear against a single great golden celestial¡­"

    "While we are getting ughter here, our backs are also getting ughtered by the Dark Sky Profound Sect¡­"

    "The Dark Sky Profound Sect is a major demonic n and they have numerous cultivation experts¡­"

    The Subus Queen Minami and her two subus subordinates Misa and Miya had stayed behind while they had sent the other subus experts forward to fight against Ji Yuan.

    Misa whispered to Subus Queen Minami and asked with a startled voice, "We are not helping our demonic n to fight off this arrogant intruder?"

    The Subus Queen Minami quietly said, "Most of the demonic cultivators possess great pride and are easily taunted but not us subus. It is because we are weaker than them in terms of our profound strength and sometimes, we have to even serve their whims¡­"

    Then she lowered her voice even lower to say. "I don''t think that they can defeat this Sword Demon Ji Yuan and today they are all going to fall here."

    Miya was curiously, "How is it possible? One vs. at least 300 top demonic cultivators. He doesn''t have the profound strength to sustain in a fight and now he is trapped. He can''t escape either."

    The Subus Queen Minami answered quietly, "This is just my instinct. He may not survive such an attack but it is my instinct that he won''t be forgotten after today''s battle. So just wait and see¡­"

    Indeed the Subus Queen Minami was proven to be right.

    After almost an hour of intense fighting, Ji Yuan could feel that his sword arm was weakening and he had even lost his 8th cultivation realm spirit animus.

    But he had killed more than 150 demonic cultivators by now and he had scored more than 180 000 points!

    This was more than enough for him to put his name in the Hall of the Valha and he was able to obtain his trial reward!

    And just then Bai Qianfeng had also reached into the chromium light; thest few steps were extremely difficult and time consuming because the true immortal weapon was sentient and was resisting her attempts to get closer by increasing the formidable pressures!

    That was why it had taken her almost an hour to walk thest few steps and the attempt had also fully exhausted her deste profound strength!

    Ji Yuan began to look in the direction of Bai Qianfeng, "Has Qianfeng obtains the true immortal weapon already?"

    By now, he had killed more than 180 out of 400 demonic cultivators of the seventh cultivation realms. This was already a huge feat because all these demonic cultivators were craftier than he had thought and they had plenty of profound treasures to sustain themselves.

    Moreover Ji Yuan had made use of the intense pressure field to his advantage and he had prevented himself from being swamped by the demonic cultivators.

    He saw that Bai Qianfeng had entered the shining chromium light now¡­

    But his cultivation realm had also dropped so he was forced to drop Anyang as his saintly divine sword now.

    Many of the demonic cultivators were shouting now:

    "His cultivation realm has dropped to the seventh cultivation realm now!"

    "He is also being affected by the intense pressure field of this ce now!"

    "This is now our golden opportunity to kill him!"

    "He is going to be dead this time!"

 Chapter 599 The Birth Of The True Immortal Weapon (4)

    Just as the dozens of demonic cultivators were all about to seize upon this opportunity to attack a faltering Ji Yuan, a divine echo resounded throughout the vicinity of the battle field.

    "You dare!"

    It was Bai Qianfeng and she had emerged from the shining chromium light with a dark object which she had pocketed into her spatial space.

    All at once the entire intense pressure field began to cease and everyone could now move normally.

    Thousands of demonic cultivators were now freed to rush down upon Ji Yuan for blood now.

    Bai Qianfeng''s red aura had suddenly be a golden aura, stunning all the demonic cultivators on the field.

    "Howe she has a golden aura now?!"

    "Isn''t she one of us?"

    "She is one of the golden celestials?!"

    Actually Bai Qianfeng''s original deste aura was blue and the yellow had represented the aura of the righteous immortals. However Yun Chi was a true deste immortal and her aura was red; she had taught Bai Qianfeng how to convert her deste aura to a true deste aura, from blue to red.

    Yun Chi had another secret and that was she actually had two auras. One reddish purple and one yellowish white.

    And she had taught Bai Qianfeng how to use two types of profound strength, one deste and one righteous.

    Just now Bai Qianfeng had indeed expended all her deste profound strength but she had not expended her righteous profound strength yet.

    Therefore she had now released her righteous profound strength which caused her red aura to turn to yellow.

    She was now like the third sun as she levitated into the air.

    Just as everyone was startled by her sudden show of her golden aura, the tens of demonic cultivators around Ji Yuan were suddenly knocked back or killed by a golden ripple as she shed next to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled by her sudden appearance and she looked really holy in her golden aura; he could scarcely believe that this was his Consort Qianfeng.

    He gasped softly, "Qianfeng?"

    Bai Qianfeng giggled softly behind her veil, "I won''t let anyone hurt you."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Isn''t this supposed to be my script?"

    As he said that, almost all the demonic cultivators except for the Dark Sky Profound Sect''s demonic cultivators were all shouting loudly, "Everyone! Go get the two of them! Kill them all!"

    "She got a true immortal weapon?"

    "Is she going to use it on us?"

    "Are we able to contest against a true immortal weapon?"

    Some of the weaker demonic cultivators and the more intelligent demonic cultivators were actually waiting on the fence as they muttered with some hesitations.

    Ji Yuan said to Bai Qianfeng, "I am your man. I will defend you¡­"

    "Thank you for buying me the time to obtain the true immortal weapon." Bai Qianfeng giggled softly. "But I shall take over now."

    She began to gently touched the ground with her foot to leap high above Ji Yuan as she said with great coldness, "I am the Abyssal Null Goddess, a high goddess of the ancient deste immortals and also one of the mighty 12 citadel sovereigns of the Ancient Fortress City. I govern the Null Citadel and 1/12 of all the deste immortals. None of you are even fit to nce me with your eyes in normal circumstances¡­"

    Many of the deste immortals were nowughing nonstop at this promation.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    "She is only one, we are many¡­"

    "9th rank or not, she must be weakened by now and this is our opportunity to take her¡­"

    "How dare the Dark Sky Profound Sect allied with a golden celestial immortal!"

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly raised her celestial sword and with a single swing, the entire vicinity around Ji Yuan had exploded with profound energies, killing and injuring dozens of high level demonic cultivators!

    A radius of 300m was suddenly cleared by the High Goddess Bai Qianfeng with a simple swing of her sword, stunning all the onlookers...

    At the same time, she had raised her left hand and spheres of powerful white lightning with the power of the lightning tribtion could be seen flying all over the battle field while conveniently avoiding the demonic cultivators from the Dark Sky Profound Sect, killing hundreds of demonic cultivators and injuring thousands.

    Bai Qianfeng giggled coldly, "You think this is all? Then you have no idea how powerful is the 9th rank secret immortal profound arts a deste citadel sovereign is, especially someone with my status."

    She had raised her celestial sword and a bolt of electricity that span miles had exploded across the battle field, killing dozens more of the powerful demonic cultivators.

    The demonic cultivators that were in her attack path had panicky raised their profound animus to tank her attack or were desperately using their profound treasures but all of their souls were instantly drained and even their cultivation cores were shattered instantly.

    Needless to say, by now, all the nearby demonic cultivators especially all the attackers from the Dark Phantom Citadel, including the Dark Sect leader Baozi Renming were all killed.

    All the demonic cultivators were terrified now because they did not even have any opportunity to get close to her and within a few short moments, thousands were already injured and she was killing them by the dozens with every blink of an eye with her Null Lightning that formed an eerie looking eye as a spirit animus around her.

    It was seriously with every blink of an eye for each time her spirit animus Null Eye blinked an eye, profound lightning would start to fly for miles everywhere!

    Only Ji Yuan waspletely safe from her profound attacks while having a good view from below her skirt...

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded as he stammered to look up from below the skirt of Bai Qianfeng, "Erm my Beloved Qianfeng, why did you suddenly be this powerful? And you did not even use that true immortal weapon?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled behind her veil; her beautiful form swayed with her nonstop attacks as she sent gigantic profound beams of electricity throughout the entire Dark Phantom Forest, uprooting the trees and causing the demonic cultivators to muster all their demonic auras to defend against her attacks.

    She answered Ji Yuan with her divine voice, "I am always this strong. Don''t you know that? Have you forgotten that I have the profound might to duel with the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, formerly the ruler of the Immortal Divine Realm? Unfortunately I was mortally wounded by her and my body was sumbed for dead inside my immortal coffin for thousands of years¡­"

    "In this divine realm, my profound strength and arts are no longer being restricted. This is the real me."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes; he had forgotten that Bai Qianfeng was an immortal. She was not just an immortal but a lofty immortal.

    In the mean time, many of the demonic cultivators were now rushing to escape but they were shocked that there was a dark pressure at the perimeter of the vicinity that were preventing their escape!

    Bai Qianfeng echoed coldly to all the surviving demonic cultivators, "It is useless to escape from my wrath. Today is your divine cmity and the abyss of your deste darkness."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered the curse of the ck stele that warned anyone of disturbing the resting ce of the Null Abyss Goddess lest the Null Abyss Door of the Deste Darkness would woefully befall onto the ones that broke her seal¡­

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly asked Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, do you want the true immortal weapon?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at Bai Qianfeng, "You don''t need it?"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly as she rolled her golden eyes, "I have several immortal artefacts. Even the coffin that you have seen when you have first found it, is also an immortal coffin¡­"

    Ji Yuan was dumfounded and his first thought was why did he not pocket that coffin and to sell itter. "Several?!"

    Bai Qianfeng was naturally not joking with him for she was an ally that even the Great Demon King had asked his followers to first persuade to join forces with him instead of making an opponent with.

    And she was also someone that Yun Chi was willing to impart her immortal profound skills with.

    She was the Null Abyss Godddess, Great Goddess of the Null Citadel of the Deste Immortals.

 Chapter 600 The Birth Of The True Immortal Weapon (5)

    Ji Yuan looked under the skirt of Bai Qianfeng and he could see the nakedness between her legs, "Haha. If only my Qianfeng can really give me a true immortal weapon as a gift, I really do not mind at all."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she curled her smiles, "This goddess naturally do not mind at all and what are you looking at?"

    She had finally noticed Ji Yuan was looking at something where he should not be looking at.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and he wasughing softly, "I am looking at my dear consort Qianfeng of course. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng said coolly, "Actually there is a misunderstanding that the birth of a true immortal artefact will be a weapon. It can be anything such as a brush, scroll, coffin, robe or anything that you can think of. It can even be something as formidable as the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "Really?! Then I will be rich cultivator! Haha." Ji Yuan interrupted with loud chuckles when he started to imagine the profound riches of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "That is naturally a Divinity ss immortal artefact and it won''t happen here. At most this is just a lesser immortal artefact and not even a greater immortal artefact. So naturally I can freely give it to you."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned weakly, "Lesser immortal artefact?!"

    Half of his enthusiasm was killed instantly.

    At this moment, the few remaining hundreds of demonic cultivators, including Queen Subus Minami were all weeping with loud wails, "May the Abyssal Null Goddess have mercies on all of us!"

    Bai Qianfeng disyed her divine voice as she resonated with great rity, "That means that you are all willing to yield under my influences. If so, kneel before me and swear with your soul sea that you will worship the Abyssal Null Goddess. Then I shall spare your lives."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Worship you?!"

    Barely had he said that, all the demonic cultivators that had not been struck dead by the shing lightning had immediately kneeled down and were swearing their allegiances to the Null Abyssal Goddess!

    The spirit animus of the Abyssal Null Eyes that was formed from Bai Qianfeng''s profound animus had suddenly stopped attacking and Bai Qianfeng had a small frown, "They have all submitted to me?"

    After seeing more than 80% of the demonic cultivators that had died today, the more than 30 demonic ns had no wish to end their extremely long cultivation life and had chosen to submit to a higher power instead...

    ? Bai Qianfeng looked a little displeased as she said, "Abyssal Null Eye, seek out those that dare to be disrespectful to me or Ji Yuan."

    Unknown to all the onlookers, her Abyssal Null Eye was actually a profound soul attack and not a spirit profound attack.

    As soon as she had muttered that, sphere of lightning bolts with several times the power of a typical lightning tribtion began to fly all over, killing the injured and the unconscious that was on the ground.

    Nothing could hide from her Abyssal Null Eyes!

    Bai Qianfeng was actually not a righteous immortal; she was an Ancient Deste Immortal and punishing her enemies were like second nature to her.

    This was her wrath!

    Just like the first time that she had sent the lightning tribtion to punish Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded because he had not expected that a fully unleashed Bai Qianfeng would be this formidable.

    Standing so close to Bai Qianfeng, Ji Yuan could feel her 9th rank immortal positioning that was like an inertia force-field that was protecting her.

    Even that Immortal Gu Bugu would have to give way to her and died on the spot!

    When her Abyssal Null Eye had ceased her attacks, Bai Qianfeng smiled divinely, "This goddess considers this as your mercy so I am sparing the rest of you today."

    Ji Yuan had estimated that he had killed 180 or so of the powerful demonic cultivators but Bai Qianfeng had actually killed 1800 of the powerful demonic cultivators without expending any effort and it had also happened so quickly that he was just dumbfounded between their power disparity.

    He had only one word to say for this this.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    And that was, at least in the bed chamber, he was superior to her.

    With that his manly pride was preserved and he was grinning again as he looked up above him to admire the holynd under her skirt.

    "Mighty Goddess Qianfeng, please bestow upon this lowly cultivator your immortal cultivation." Ji Yuan was grinning.

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly thrown him a dark shape that fastened onto his back and it was shaped like a scabbard.

    This was a quite arge scabbard that could hold two divine swords!

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed that it was not a weapon but a useless non offensive scabbard¡­

    "This is¡­ my immortal gift?"

    Bai Qianfeng giggled from above, "My lord. Are you not happy with your immortal gift?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I love this gift so much that I can kiss this scabbard every night."

    Xiang Li and Anyang were actually relieved that Ji Yuan''s immortal gift was not a weapon.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled enticingly, "Why don''t you put your two saintly swords into your scabbard?"

    Ji Yuan did as he was told and all of a sudden, he was startled to see that his two divine swords were imbued with an awesome power.

    Curious, he began to take his saintly divine swords out to have a look and he was shocked that his two saintly divine swords had be a pair of emperor-step divine swords!

    When all the demonic cultivators saw the profound animus of the two emperor-step divine swords, they were also stunned for they never seen an emperor-step divine sword in their lifetime and there were actually two instead of just one; the profound power of an emperor-step sword was also twice as powerful as a saintly divine sword!

    It was not wrong to say that Ji Yuan could simply lift his emperor-step divine sword and he could even mortally wound a seventh realm cultivator with just his profound strength alone!

    Ji Yuan was also stunned, "This is¡­two emperor-step divine swords?!"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly as she winked at Ji Yuan, "Did you not notice that you can now wield two emperor-step divine swords now?"

    Ji Yuan was further startled as he looked at the two emperor-step divine swords in his hands, "Oh crap, I didn''t notice. Do I even have the profound strength to lift even one emperor-step divine sword?!"

    "Your profound strength didn''t improve but this is the profound power of your immortal scabbard." Bai Qianfeng disyed a soft chuckle. "With some time, you may even discover more of its abilities."

    Xiang Li was also feeling weird that her saintly divine sword was able to form into an emperor-step divine sword. This was actually not the immortal power of the scabbard; her saintly divine sword was actually quite close to being an emperor-step divine sword and only needed a little push to awaken as an emperor-step divine sword.

    All the immortal scabbard did was to consolidate the scattered profound energies from Xiang Li and Anyang to reform them as an emperor-step divine sword.

    Anyang was gasping with disbelief: This immortal scabbard seems to have the power to weave together the profound energies and to store it. That was why our lord is able to wield two emperor divine swords now. This is a most precious immortal profound treasure among the other immortal treasures!

 Chapter 601 The Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng

    In the aftermath of the battle;

    Bai Qianfeng said to the Queen Subus Minami, "So you are now the highest ranking demonic cultivator in the Dark Phantom Citadel now? Very well then, you shall be the new demonic sect leader."

    The Queen Subus Minami weakly said, "Above the Dark Phantom Citadel, we still have a headquarter the Major Dark Phantom Citadel. I need their approval to be leader¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng waved her down, "No need. They are already destroyed and I am now the supreme leader of the Major Dark Phantom Citadel. As for the rest of the major demonic ns, they will be submitting very soon."

    The Queen Subus Minami was stunned as she stammered with disbelief, "They are all destroyed? How is it possible? We didn''t even receive any news yet¡­"

    Ji Yuan pretended to be all-knowing as he looked at the beautiful Queen Subus, "Well. She must have sent her Avatar. As long as the Avatar does not receive a fatal hit, they won''t dissipate. Even if it is Qianfeng''s Avatar, none of you are able to fight against an immortal¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng had a slight frown as she pinched Ji Yuan hard to interrupt him, "You talk too much."

    And then she turned to the rest of the survivors who were all bowing down rows by rows in front of her.

    "From today onward, I am your supreme leader the Abyssal Null Goddess. Put anyone that opposes to me to the death. They have only one choice. To oppose me or stand with me. Also, from this day onward, you must free the native humans into their own cities and help them to form their own celestial ns."

    "Also, bring me the White Sword Monarch, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue. I want them to be brought to me alive no matter what."

    There were no dissenters because all the rebellious at heart could not escape from the watchful ze of her Abyssal Null Eye which was a soul attack; no demonic cultivators would be able to lie in front of the Abyssal Null Eye. Those that were capable of lying were all killed.

    "Now disperse to all your demonic ns and spread my message of war."

    The Queen Subus Minami took a bold step in asking with trembling lips, "What if we encounter the golden celestials? They are from humanity too."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "You are allowed to give them the choice of serving my cause to fight the other demonic cultivators or they can choose to do whatever they want. If they want to fight you then you shall fight back. Isn''t this simple enough?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "She means to say, you can choose to leave them alone if they really do not want to fight you¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was not a celestial and she would not stand fully with the celestials. So Ji Yuan saw it fit to correct her sometimes unreasonable directives.

    At this moment Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi had also arrived; they were shocked at the carnage as they looked around. They had seen thebat scene at the distant but they could not believe that this was done by a single cultivator.

    Hua Xunzi actually did not want to approach a dangerous cultivator such as Bai Qianfeng but because Ji Yuan was there and Zhi Jiugong had told her that she would be alright.

    Zhi Jiugong could not believe that her senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister Bai Qianfeng was capable of such a carnage. It was no wonder why the Death Goddess Yun Chi had said to them, "It is not a matter who is first orst. The Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng is to be your senior and she is also my most direct sessor to my immortal arts."

    "Sister Qianfeng... you are here too..." Zhi Jiugong had quickly greeted Bai Qianfeng.

    The Queen Subus Minami was startled that there were two other great celestials that were hiding in the dark misty forest and one of them seemed to know the Abyssal Null Goddess too.

    The rest of the demonic cultivators were already starting to leave save for Queen Subus Minami and her demonic n; it was because this was actually their territory and they had to serve the Abyssal Null Goddess a little longer.

    Bai Qianfeng had now turned to her own demonic prot¨¦g¨¦s the Dark Sky Profound Sect, "Elders of the Dark Sky Profound Sect, go back and lead the other demonic ns for war against the demonic ns. If they resist, exterminate them without any mercy. Now go."

    As she had said that, her elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s were also departing hastily to carry out their orders with fervour.

    When Ji Yuan saw that most of the demonic cultivators had already left, he began to examine the dead, glittering profound treasures and the daemonic swords in the vicinity. "Qianfeng, we need to talk."

    Bai Qianfeng turned to look at him with a perplexed look, "Yes my lord?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Actually what you did is not right."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    The Queen Subus Minami was shocked at Ji Yuan''s audacity toward the Abyssal Null Goddess and so were Misa and Miya.

    That was because in the point of views of the demonic cultivators, might is always right.

    Even Hua Xunzi and Zhi Jiugong were startled by Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly, "So what if you manage to subjugate this divine realm into your divine realm? Have you forgotten how the Ancient Deste Immortals are driven away from the Immortal Realm? Your race has escaped to the Deste Divine Realm to co-exist as a major faction along with the three true gods of the Deste Divine Realm. While you seek to regain mastery over the Immortal Divine Realm, the Great Demon God has already set his sights on my Celestial Divine Realm¡­"

    "Without the restrictivews of the Celestial Divine Realm, I can now imagine how a single true god of the Deste Divine Realm is able to reign havoc in the Celestial Divine Realm. Maybe then, you won''t even have a chance to meet me for I won''t even be born. Millions would be enved or ughtered by the three true gods without the restrictivews of the Celestial Divine Realm¡­"

    "I know that this isn''t what I want to happen to my Celestial Divine Realm¡­"

    "But this is exactly what has happened to this Demonic Divine Realm. You are able to reign supreme because there is no one that is powerful enough to withstand your profound cultivation realm. With a flicker of your fingers, you are able to tear anyone apart in this divine realm. This is what I am seeing now."

    "Therefore¡­" Ji Yuan inhaled heavily now. "You can stop now. This isn''t what Xiang Li and Anyang wants to see either."

    Xiang Li nodded in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: That''s right. We want to see your love again!

    Anyang was frowning: You mean you want to see Qianfeng''s love making session with Ji Yuan?

    Xiang Li giggled jovially: She is the only one that allows me to watch in my physical form next to her...

    Bai Qianfeng''s heavenly golden eyes were quiet for a while; this was her true nature even if she had lost her deste strength previously. This was the way of the Deste Immortals and the Ancient Deste Immortals had always practiced the way of the might is right.

    She answered slowly, "This goddess needs to think for a while¡­"

    Then she said to the Subus Queen Minami, "Bring your Lord Ji Yuan to the Dark Phantom Citadel for his rest first. I shall also join him there."

    The Subus Queen Minami immediately nodded and said, "Miya and Misa, please serve Lord Ji Yuan well and ede to all his requests."

    Miya and Miya immediately acknowledged this request and they were by Ji Yuan''s side in the next instant.

    Miya said quietly, "Lord Ji Yuan, pleasee with us."

    Ji Yuan took a look at their scantily dressing and their beautiful looks as he muttered incoherently, "This is too sinful¡­ ede to all my requests?"

    He looked at their scantitly panties while imaging them naked and mutttered, "ede to all my requests..."

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly waved her hands and the entire battle vicinity was shaking violently; thousands of swords and all kinds profound treasures were being absorbed into her sleeves!

    Ji Yuan saw that even the indestructible storage items were being ripped apart by Bai Qianfeng and their contents were all being absorbed as well.

    He was suddenly stammering because he could spot tens of millions of high grade spirit stones and other wondrous profound treasures that were flying into Bai Qianfeng''s sleeves.

    Now even one of the high ranking demonic cultivator was a solo powerhouse, having acquired uncountable amount of profound wealth in their life time. And there were more than 2000 demonic cultivators that were scattered dead here.

    The profound wealth that was here could not be imagined by anyone!

    Bai Qianfeng said softly, "Maybe this is myst plundering of these great profound wealth since my lord did not want me to kill unnecessary now."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes: You can start by sharing some of these profound wealth with me first. Moral standings can actually be bribed over by you¡­

 Chapter 602 Letâ€™s Have â€˜Cultural Exchangesâ€™

    Ji Yuan was now feeling like the happiest man in the entire divine realm.

    Right now, he was being served like a king by two subus great profane demoness which was equivalent to being served by two great saintesses.

    And they were both scantily dressed, wearing only a thin panties and a thin straps that covered their nipples.

    He was constantly looking at the tightness between their long jaded legs or their protruding nipples, "Do you agree that we are now having our cultural exchanges so that we may be able to know each other better?"

    Misa and Miya were both smiling with sincerities, "We are pleased to serve a great lord such as our Lord Ji Yuan here."

    Misa chuckled for a while before she winked at Ji Yuan to disy her deadly subus charms, "You are indeed the Great Demon Sword that is prophesied to appear. You have two emperor-step divine swords and there are no cultivators that can withstand the might of your sword in the entire realm."

    Miya smiled with a curly nod, "This is true. The number one top cultivator is our Draconian Master Darth Ya and he is dead now."

    "He cannot be more dead than a dead corpse now." Misa giggled softly.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I didn''t know that I am actually such a formidable swordsman?"

    Miya smiled coyly as she bent over to cuddle him, "You are indeed a formidable swordsman and is so manly. You even dare to talk back to the Abyssal Null Goddess."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "I just want less bloodshed. But don''t you want lesser bloodshed too?"

    Miya asked him curiously, "Why should we want less bloodshed? We only want to serve the most powerful cultivator. Whether they are golden celestials, demonic cultivator or even a deste immortal, it doesn''t matter to us."

    Misa giggled as she caressed Ji Yuan lightly, "As pioneers to our supreme leader the Abyssal Null Goddess, we will only have benefits and not any disadvantages."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "But among your enemies, there are bounded to have many of your subus race as well. You want them dead as well?"

    Miya asked curiously, "Why should they be dead if they just surrender to the might of our supreme leader? If they oppose our superme leader, then they deserve to die and be wiped out. Isn''t this normal?"

    "Yeah!" Misa seconded her as well.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "You know. You fight because you want freedom. You fight the strong because they look down upon you as weaklings."

    Misa asked curiously, "Why should we? If we are weak then we deserve to be trampled. If we are strong, then we can trample the others. Isn''t this good this way?"

    "Freedom? Fight for freedom and die? Is it worth it?" Miya asked Ji Yuan curiously.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I give you a better example. If I ask you to strip in front of me, will you do so willingly? Naturally you will detest it because I am tramping upon your pride, right¡­"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly repeating, "Right¡­"

    It was because Miya and Misa were suddenly naked as they had released the soul bounds on their flimsy undies.

    Miya giggled, "If our lord wants us to strip, naturally it is our great pleasure to serve him."

    "Absolutely and with great pleasure." Misa giggled softly and she was rubbing against Ji Yuan with her naked bosoms now.

    Ji Yuan did not notice what they were saying and instead he was staring widely between their naked legs, "This is¡­ cultural exchanges¡­"

    Xiang Li and Anyang were giggling too in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: That''s right. This is a perfect opportunity to study a new race.

    Miya was now rubbing her holynd in Ji Yuan''s face as she smiled coyly, "My lord, why are you not undressing yet?"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Do you think if I ask your Queen Minami to strip, will she strip like the two of you?"

    Miya answered without any hesitation, "She will definitely strip for you without any hesitation. We are subus and this is our way. Do you want our Queen Minami to serve you instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "if she isn''t busy, you can summon her here for some cultural exchanges. We can then get to know each other better¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen because he saw Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Xunzi and the Subus Queen Minami arriving into the resting hall where he was at now.

    Miya and Misa quickly greeted their supreme leader Bai Qianfeng.

    "Supreme Leader Abyssal Null Goddess, your servants pay our obeisance to you."

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly to Ji Yuan as she drew a long sigh, "You seem to be enjoying yourself."

    Ji Yuan quickly protested, "I am innocent. You can ask them. We are only having some cultural exchanges with one another¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng rolled her golden eyes as she said softly, "Cultural exchanges with them naked?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "If I tell you that this isn''t what it seems to be. Do you believe me or not? You know that I am fully clothed."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled all of a sudden, "I am only teasing my lord. Why are you so serious for?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am most afraid that you will misunderstand me. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you are not banging them to taste new vors?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly said, "I''ve been thinking that I may be wrong to oppress the demonic cultivators¡­"

    "No, you are right." Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted weakly. "Go do your worst. They don''t mind at all."

    Bai Qianfeng: ???

    Zhi Jiugong: ???

    Hua Xunzi: ???

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "They really have the servitude mentality and are just waiting for someone to dominate over them. I am so wrong in helping them to fight for their rights."

    Author Note:

    1. Well, this is a really light chapter.

 Chapter 603 Hua Xunzi Admits Her Woeful Past

    Bai Qianfeng had told Ji Yuan and the rest that she would be going for a quick closed-door meditation.

    Ji Yuan was startled and secretly asked her, "Qianfeng, are you alright? If you are not alright from the earlier battle, please do tell me. After all, I am your lord consort right? And I deserve the right to know if you are in trouble."

    He was really anxious for her.

    But Bai Qianfeng pulled him close to her bosoms and whispered shyly, "I have plundered so many profound treasures that I need some time to sort them. It isn''t because I am in trouble. So don''t worry."

    Then she kissed him softly on his cheek, "My lord, thank you for your concerns. I will be out soon enough."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and just as he was able to tell Bai Qianfeng that he was responsible for over 200 kills and hence he deserved a share of the loot, she had already vanished.

    Right now, he was alone with Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi.

    The Queen Subus Minami had already left to announce to the stunned demonic cultivators from the Dark Phantom Citadel that all of their elders and leaders were now dead. From now onward, she was to rule them on behalf of the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    As for Miya and Misa, they had left to serve as protectors for Bai Qianfeng as she entered into her seclusion.

    Unknown to the rest except for Ji Yuan, this was not even a seclusion but Bai Qianfeng was actually inside the cultivating chamber to count her newfound wealth.

    When Ji Yuan was alone with Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi, Zhi Jiugong said with a divine hum for her voice was ever so heavenly and beautiful to behold. "Until now, I can''t believe that we will actually meet my prot¨¦g¨¦ sister here in this ce. I was still wondering how it was even possible for us to deal with so many powerful demonic cultivators in this ce. As a matter of fact, I don''t even think it is possible for us to obtain the true immortal weapon."

    Hua Xunzi stared at the scabbard behind Ji Yuan as she slowly heaved a soft sigh, "This immortal weapon is actually an immortal scabbard and it is now in Ji Yuan''s hands. This is indeed a most unbelievable thing that can happen. And moreover¡­"

    She lingered for a while before she stared nkly at the two emperor divine swords that were inside the scabbard, "And moreover, he has two emperor-step divine swords now. I don''t think there is any cultivator in the entire Celestial Realm that can fight him on an even ground now, saved for the true immortal swords of the immortal cultivators."

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "The immortal cultivators don''t need a divine sword to kill me or anyone else. Look at the Abyssal Null Goddess and you will know."

    To be honest, he had never thought that he would seen this side of the usual docile Bai Qianfeng. It was true that she had admitted to him that she had tried to kill him in the past. But because Ji Yuan could not really feel her killing intents and that he was always lucky to survive her attempts as a lucky urrence, he had never thought of Bai Qianfeng as a goddess or someone who was trying to kill him.

    From Bai Qianfeng, he had actually ovee his purple lightning tribtion and got 10 000 life span of immortality and he even obtained his first celestial-step divine sword from her as well. Also, without her silver coffin, he could never have revived his Sword Saintess Yuluo from her grave as well...

    Hua Xunzi and Zhi Jiugong slowly nodded; while Ji Yuan had to use all his profound strength to kill 200 powerful demonic cultivators with the aid of the intense pressure field, Bai Qianfeng just took just a while to send 2000 powerful demonic cultivators to the abyss. If she had not stopped, all the surviving demonic cultivators would also be sent to the abyss too.

    Hua Xunzi suddenly said with a soft inhale, "It is no wonder why my mistress chooses to be with you."

    "Huh?" Ji Yuan said with a perplexed look.

    He knew that Hua Xunzi was Little Princess'' subordinate because Little Princess had actually told him after her talks with Hua Xunzi that day.

    That was the main reason why he had given her a golden talisman to leave this ce.

    The beautiful and coyly looking Hua Xunzi looked at him with trembling eyes, "Right now, you must be despising me because you saw what had happened to me on that fateful day¡­"

    She was naturally referring to that fateful day when she was violently ravaged by the big ogre cultivator Baozi Lama.

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he grinned, "Is that important?"

    Hua Xunzi looked quietly away, "You may have saved me thinking that I may be of some help to you. In the end, I am unable to do anything to help you. Not only did I cause you to lose one precious golden talisman, I am also a burden to you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "With such a lovely maiden such as you in mypany, why should I think of you as a burden?"

    This was the true. Along the way, he was feasting with his eyes on both Hua Xunzi and Zhi Jiugong.

    Hua Xunzi took a look at the noble demeanor of Zhi Jiugong before she averted her woeful nces and she was almost in tears, "Although I am a great saintess but I am nothing but a cheap whore¡­"

    Paaaa!!!!<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuan had suddenly pped her face hard and Zhi Jiugong was gasping with shock from the p.

    "Ji Yuan, you¡­" Zhi Jiugong could not believe her eyes.

    Hua Xunzi smiled coldly as she burst into tears, not mindful at all. "Good. Even you think of me as a cheap whore that can be wantonly abuse¡­"

    "No!" Ji Yuan interrupted her firmly before he said unhappily, "I p you not because you think of yourself as a cheap whore from that one incident but because you have already given up on yourself! Where is your pride in being a great saintess?"

    Hua Xunziughed coldly as she cried out tearfully and her whole body was trembling, "Do you know my past at all? That isn''t the only incident. I''ve slept with many, many men and I was used by them¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her, "We are not mortals. We are great celestials with a long life. In our long lives, we tend to make many mistakes. Do you really think that I am a hero? I can tell you that before they even call me a hero, I have trampled upon the prides of numerous celestials because they are inferior to me. But do they hate me? Yes. But do I love myself? Yes. So why should I care about their views when I love only myself?"

    As he was saying this, he was saying silently to Xiang Li and Anyang: Oh my beautiful beard where are you. Now no one can see my beautiful beard. I do care about their views on my beautiful beard¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Hua Xunzi was staring tearfully at Ji Yuan now¡­

    Ji Yuan continued with great righteousness, "My old master said this to me: What is evil, what is good? As long as they are willing to change, we should give them a chance to repent."

    Zhi Jiugong had actually heard this and the old freak had said it for his daughter the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue to hear.

    Ji Yuan looked at Hua Xunzi with a heartfelt smile, "Maybe if you don''t do that, you may have already died several times over. You should be grateful that you are still alive and is still able to turn over a new leaf."

    Hua Xunzi gasped softly as she looked at Ji Yuan and her hot tears were flowing, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had never met a man like Ji Yuan before.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Everyone will have their own sad past. I have mine too. Take for example, that time when I was kidnapped by the Evil Cultivation Pce and was forced to copte with 3000 maidens¡­"

    "There isn''t so many maidens in the Evil Cultivation Pce." Hua Xunzi had suddenly said as she interrupted him slowly and doubts had appeared in her golden eyes.

    "Haha¡­ I mean 3000 times. It is a slip of a tongue." Ji Yuanughed most awkwardly; actually he was just being forced to copte 3000 times with Little Princess¡­

    All of a sudden there were earth shaking profound shouts from the outside of their room and the entire Dark Phantom Citadel was shaking violently!

    It was the powerful profound shout of a 9th rank immortal and he was shouting divinely, "Who has dared to kill my demonic cultivators, my prot¨¦g¨¦s and grand prot¨¦g¨¦s? Come out now and fight me!"

    His profound shouts carried a profound shockwave that could immediately injured the lower cultivation realm cultivators.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Immortal cultivators?! And there are 3 of them?

    His divine sense had picked up 3 immortal cultivators in the heavens outside.

    Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi were also startled for they had also picked up the profound animus of 3 immortal cultivators!

    Two were 8th realm immortal and there was even a 9th realm immortal too!

    Author Note:

    1. This arc has not ended yet. Three Immortals!

 Chapter 604 The Three Demonic Immortals (1)

    Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi had all rushed outside and they were startled to see 3 immortal cultivators floating in the heavens above the many citadels of the Dark Phantom Citadel.

    The Subus Queen Minami had also rushed outside and she was followed by thousands of demonic cultivators. When they saw the three demonic immortals, they were also shocked.

    Now these three demonic immortals all had horns and were of the red fiend race; they were demonic cultivators that had long ascended from this divine realm to the Deste Divine Realm.

    Technically it was not impossible to return to the lower realm but an equivalent price had to be paid in order to dwell in the lower realm for a limited time; it was because their presence would unbnce the delicate bnce between the two divine realms.

    However there were other methods to remain in the lower realm by the immortals but the price was often high and they had to ept multiple restrictions that would also be imposed upon them.

    When these 3 immortal cultivators had sensed a powerful immortal was creating havoc in their old divine realm, they were enraged. Therefore they had decided to punish this immortal themselves by requesting donations from the hundreds of powerful immortals in the Deste Divine Realm.

    One must know that the Deste Divine Realm was not called the Deste Realm for nothing for it was poor in spiritual aura. Only a divine realm that was rich in the universal force could spawn spiritual aura and spiritual aura would then spawn the birth of new profound artefacts.

    That was why the Immortal Divine Realm was always a prized target for the denizens of the Deste Divine Realm to invade.

    Now these three demonic Immortals were determined not to allow an enemy immortal from messing up the Demonic Divine Realm which they had ascended from and it was a necessary price to pay for in order for them to interfere.

    An old immortal raised the ugly tip of his fingers and all of a sudden a profound spear had materialized in mid-air and he had thrust it into one of the many citadels to implode it violently with his 8th cultivation realm profound energies.

    This was a powerful 8th cultivation realm profound art and even Ji Yuan was looking at it with awe. Butpared to his Qianfeng, it was still too weak.

    But as soon as Ji Yuan had appeared, all 3 of the immortals were now staring in his direction; it was because they had noticed the immortal scabbard that was on his back!

    This immortal scabbard was giving away too much spiritual aura and they had immediately identified it as a true immortal artefact!

    The strongest of the 3 immortals, was an old red fiend by the name of the Demonic High Immortal Ena and he was also a 9th middle cultivation realm immortal.

    He had suddenly said aloud as he pointed at Ji Yuan, "If you surrender your immortal scabbard to me, I will then spare your puny life."

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly as he stepped forward, "What if I say no?"

    The 8th cultivation realm immortal that had just fired his profound spear was actually called Grand Sage Mud face and he had stepped forward to say angrily, "Then you shall die!!!"

    Ji Yuan saw that he was about to raise his profound spear again and he quickly said, "You know. I can''t fly so how do I fight you? Why don''t youe down and fight me instead? Or are you a coward that likes to stay high up? Well, if you stay high up you may not be able to kill me. Even if you are an immortal, your profound energies will weaken over the vast distances."

    Then Ji Yuan pointed at the carnage that he had just caused, "From the time you summon your profound spear tounching it at that citadel over there and then exploding it, is around 10 blinks of an eye. Honestly, I can just speed away in only 3 blinks of an eye. If you persist in your attacks then you would only be wasting your profound strength."

    Grand Sage Mud face was furious but Ji Yuan was right; his profound spear was massive and he needed time to pour his 8th cultivation realm profound strength in order to shape it into a mssive profound spear with his profound energies. And that alone took 6 blinks of an eye.

    It was a quick attack. If he were to solidify it then it would need 30 blinks of an eye and a mere 6 blinks of an eye was actually not enough to kill a seventh realm cultivator.

    By any standard, this was already fast enough for 6 blinks of an eye.

    But this may seem too slow to a peaked seventh realm speed cultivator and especially one that had an immortal scabbard.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    So he answered with a cold smirk, "Very well then. Then I shall show you the profound strength of a middle tier 8th cultivation realm immortal. Hahaha¡­"

    When he had said that, he hadnded loudly on the top of the citadel wall where Ji Yuan was and the entire citadel was violently shaking when he had suddenlynded like this.

    The eruption of his profound strength when he hadnded was truly earth shaking and terrifying!

    The other two immortals were all smiling; it was because they had already anticipated the pathetic ending of the cultivator with the immortal scabbard.

    Their lecherous eyes were already looking at Zhi Jiugong, Hua Xunzi and the Subus Queen Minami; since they had spent so much of their profound wealth on this trip, they may as well try to enjoy their stay here with these depraved vester.

    Zhi Jiugong was anxious for Ji Yuan as she said softly, "My lord, do be very careful and don''t get careless. If you die in this battle, I will join you."

    Hua Xunzi tugged on Ji Yuan''s sleeve and there was real concern for him, "Don''t lose your life in this ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan was really touched by these two maidens...

    The Queen Subus Minami was actually standing in another location and she had a mixed feeling; it was not the way of her race to wish someone good tidings in battle and hope that they would survive.

    Ji Yuan had walked calmly to Grand Sage Mud Face and said nonchntly, "I am Great Saint Ji Yuan. You can also call me Sword Demon Ji Yuan."

    Grand Sage Mud Face was amused, "Sword Demon Ji Yuan? It is funny that we do have a Demon Sword legend here but unfortunately you are not the one because you will surely die here today. All of you here! Remember my name, engraved it into your very soul sea well for I am Grand Sage Mud Face. How about I use only 30% of my profound strength¡­."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly drawn out both of his emperor-step divine swords and had disyed his Grand Cross attack; the speed in which he could use his grand cross attack astonished even Ji Yuan and the minute that he had unsheathed his divine swords and was already thinking of using his Grand Cross profound art, he had already executed it in the next instant!

    A wave of white light more majestic than anything Ji Yuan had ever seen before had instantly overwhelmed Grand Sage Mud Face and had pulverize him on the spot by sawing him into 4 meatball parts!

    Ji Yuan was stunned at how powerful his Grand Cross was now with his emperor divine swords and this was even more powerful when he was using his Cherubim Deste spirit animus!

    Even the Demonic High Immortal Ena was stunned and so was the other 8th cultivation realm immortal next to him!

    Two emperor divine swords?!!!

    Did they really see what they were seeing?

    Even the Subus Queen Minami and the thousands of demonic cultivators were also stunned; did they just witness the death of one immortal just like this?!

    ----------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Is this Ji Yuan first true immortal kill?

    2. The immortal scabbard is proving to be too OP for Ji Yuan lol.

 Chapter 605 The Three Demonic Immortals (2)

    Ji Yuan had killed one immortal just like this and his profound power was greater than even the profound power that Grand Sage Mud Face was able to produce.

    Just as the Demonic High Immortal Ena was about to order his other subordinate immortal to attack Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan had suddenly jumped up high into the heavens with his Demonic Cherubim spirt animus and had violently shed with two beaming white ring light that exploded on the other subordinate, instantly killing him.

    That was now two immortals that were dead and all the demonic cultivators that were on the ground was stunned¡­

    The profound animus that Ji Yuan had just disyed was on par with the two immortals that were killed and it was exactly the middle 8th cultivation realm tier!

    Ji Yuan had suddenly tried to attack the Demonic High Immortal Ena but he had quickly evaded away by exploding a powerful st of profound energies upon Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan used his two emperor swords to block off the attack as he could not evade in a timely manner and was startled that he was not injured; the profound st had been fully exhausted by Ji Yuan''s two emperor step divine sword!

    He was astonished; the power disparity of having two emperor swords were just too great, especially when Anyang could activate her five elements defense to further reduce the offensive profound energies.

    Ji Yuan grinned at the Demonic High Immortal Ena, "Actually I have lied that I can''t fly to the heavens and I''m a little sorry. Do you mind at all?"

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena was shocked, "You are also an immortal?! No, you are not. You just a seventh realm cultivator that got lucky with a powerful spirit animus. Your bones density has not advanced to the indestructible golden body yet."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Well, I don''t know what you are talking about. But you are an immortal so you can see from many angles above me. So let me ask you. Do you want to fight or to go away peacefully?"

    The reason why Ji Yuan was giving him this option was because he really had no confident that he could defeat a middle tier demonic high immortal that was at the same cultivation realm as his Bai Qianfeng.

    In order for this old red fiend to be a ninth realm immortal, it must have taken him several eons.

    And he may be extremely ancient.

    Ji Yuan was actually not wrong.

    Because this Demonic High Immortal Ena had already existed in the Deste Divine Realm long before the Deste Immortals from the Immortal Divine Realm had arrived in their profound ship the Ancient Fortress City.

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena smirked coldly, "You just have no idea on the power disparity between an 8th realm and a 9th realm cultivator, don''t you? It is like the heavens and the earth."

    There was a huge burst of profound animus that had suddenly exploded all around the Demonic High Immortal Ena and it was even more formidable than Ji Yuan''s eighth realm grand cross!

    The Subus Queen Minami gasped with shock as she spied into her profound orb from below, "14 534 profound power rating!"

    "What was Ji Yuan''s grand cross profound rating?" Many of the demonic cultivators were curiously asking.

    The Subus Queen Minami muttered, "6254¡­"

    Many of the demonic cultivators were in shock;

    "6254 vs. 14 534?"

    "This is suicide¡­"

    "Such a powerful grand cross attack is only capable of doing 6254 profound power rating?!"

    Ji Yuan could hear them and he awkwardly looked in their directions to say silently: I''ve actually start off with 444 profound animus. Do you know how much profound power is my miracle sword art and my emperor swordsbined?

    Far below Ji Yuan, there were two female cultivators that were praying to the Great Beyond Goddess for Ji Yuan''s deliverance and they were trembling with fear for Ji Yuan. They were Zhi Jiugong and Hua Xunzi.

    It was because they knew that the power disparity between a 9th realm immortal and a fake 8th realm immortal was simply too vast. There was no way that Ji Yuan could win this time round.

    The Demonic High Immortal Enaughed jovially and his profound voice exploded in shockwaves around him. "So, do you still have any other worthy attacks?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he disyed his two sword spirits and he had also disyed the divine halo of his emperor-step divine swords, "We can only fight now."

    As soon as he had said that, he had sped toward the Demonic High Immortal Ena to disy his Grand Cross technique.

    However the Demonic High Immortal Ena had suddenly raised his palm and a profound devil hand had suddenly descended upon Ji Yuan and had sent him crashing onto the ground.

    The minute this profound devil hand had appeared, a huge pressure had suddenly appeared and hadpletely dissipated Ji Yuan''s attack and had even extinguished his Demonic Cherubim spirit animus!

    The Subus Queen Minami was gasping, "The profound power of that devil''s hand has actually exceeded 18 999 profound power rating¡­"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Ji Yuan did not even have a chance to attack and he was being crushed by a Power Immortal!

    All the onlookers could see that Ji Yuan was half buried in a pit on the ground and he had crashed with such force that he had imploded soundly on the ground!

    It was horrible to look at!

    Indeed the profound attack hadpletely extinguished all of Ji Yuan''s profound animus and he had even vomited blood. Moreover he could even feel that his golden body had actually cracked and there were multiple lines of cracks all over his body. If he moved then the line cracks in his golden body would spread even further!

    The Demonic High Immortal Enaughed resonantly as he raised his hands again, "This is the power disparity between the two of us. Go to the great abyss..."

    All of a sudden Hua Xunzi had disyed her great saintess profound animus and she had sped to him with a profound flying sword; this startled everyone because they did not expect that there would be a cultivator that could actually fly up to engage the Demonic High Immortal Ena.

    Even Zhi Jiugong was startled for Hua Xunzi did not give any warnings!

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena was startled too and instinctively he had turned with his fiendish ws on Hua Xunzi and he had twisted her neck and body, instantly killing her as she dropped down from the sky.

    Ji Yuan was stunned and he was angrily trying to stand up as he mustered all his profound strength, "Maiden Xunzi!!!"

    Even Zhi Jiugong was shocked; a great saintess had just died like this and was twisted like paper in front of a ninth cultivation realm immortal...

    Just as the Demonic High Immortal Ena was feeling pitiful that he had just killed a great beauty, he had suddenly coughed out golden blood as a beautiful hand had suddenly struck him on the back; this profound attack had suddenly sent him crashing all the way to the ground and he had exploded with a thunderous impact!

    From where he was, a pit bigger than Ji Yuan had been dug and he was also half buried in it!

    The Subus Queen Minami was startled, "Our supreme leader has a profound rating of 28 000!"

    Indeed it was Bai Qianfeng that had suddenly appeared behind the Demonic High Immortal Ena and she was looking none the pleased!

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena was stunned when he saw her and he immediately stammered, "The Abyssal Null Goddess! Please forgive me! I didn''t know that it is you that is here! If I know that it is you who is here, I would never havee down to this inferior divine realm!"

    All the cultivators, including Ji Yuan was startled that this Demonic High Immortal Ena had actually known the Abyssal Null Goddess?!

    Ji Yuan thought: I thought that Qianfeng''s cultivation realm has only just advanced to the middle tier of the 9th cultivation realm. Why is he so afraid of my Qianfeng?

    His puzzled question would actually be answered by Bai Qianfeng in the next instant.

    Bai Qianfeng said icily as she floated in the heavens, "There are 3, 6, 9 grade to even an immortal of the ninth immortal positioning. When this goddess was in the Deste Divine Realm, you were not even qualified to seek an audience with me. And today you have such an audacity to attack my new sect?"

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena stammered, "I can quickly retreat and leave this ce¡­"

    "You can die in this ce actually." Bai Qianfeng coolly said.

    The Demonic High Immortal Ena was shocked, "We are both 9th immortal positioning cultivators. Although you are my superior in profound strength and profound arts but it is not impossible for you to kill me outright too. I can always escape¡­"

    All of a sudden there were two Abyssal Null Eyes appearing on Bai Qianfeng, one on the right side and one on the left side; one was red and one was golden.

    The heavy pressure that in the vicinity had suddenly increased by many folds and spheres of lightning, red and yellow were suddenly descending upon the Demonic High Immortal Ena.

    It was so earthshaking that even the profound orb of Queen Subus Minami had exploded!

    And this was even more powerful than when Bai Qianfeng had used just one golden Abyssal Null Eye!

    Bai Qianfeng smiled enchantingly as she torn the Demonic High Immortal Ena apart with her earth quaking lightning bolts that had also ripped the ground apart with its fierce profound attack, "Now that I can wield two types of profound energies, do you think that a mere immortal like you can escape from my divine wrath?"

    Ji Yuan''s dropped his jaws and was dumbfounded; did his Qianfeng just effortlessly killed a 9th middle cultivation realm immortal with just her spirit animus alone?

    Did he really identally offend such a powerful goddess in the past and had lived to tell the tale?

    And he had even banged this powerful goddess more times than he could remember¡­

    But Ji Yuan had something more in his list of concerns and he was struggling with his body to reach the mangled body of Hua Xunzi...

    There were hot tears in his eyes and Ji Yuan could not even remember when was thest time that he had been this emotional...

 Chapter 606 The Death Of Hua Xunzi

    A stunned Ji Yuan was now dragging his body to where Hua Xunzi had fallen while Bai Qianfeng had gently dropped behind him with a light tiptoe.

    A remorseful Ji Yuan had now fallen to his knees and he was bowing next to the mangled remain of Hua Xunzi''s dead body; she had died a most horrible death when she was twisted to death by the Demonic High Immortal Ena and also because she had used her body to buy Ji Yuan some precious time.

    Ji Yuan mmed his fists onto the ground next to her and he was angrily saying with hot tears in his golden eyes, "This is my fight. I don''t need you to help me¡­"

    Although he had said that but he also knew that she had brought him the precious time until Bai Qianfeng could appear to deal with the Demonic High Immortal Ena.

    Ji Yuanmented loudly, "You don''t ever deserve to die¡­"

    And he was grasping her hand tightly as he had said that.

    But all of a sudden he could feel a little vital life energies in her and when he saw that she still had a little life in her, he began to panicky infused his life force energies into her.

    Hua Xunzi''s twisted neck began to open her eyes as she weakly said, "Ji¡­ Yuan? I don''t deserve your concern ¡­ I am just a wanton maiden¡­"

    Ji Yuan knew that his profound energies were not going to help but he continued to persist; her injuries were simply too fatal to be healed.

    "No, you are not a wanton maiden¡­ I don''t see it this way¡­ listen to me; you are a golden celestial, a great saintess, are you going to just die in this manner?!"

    He was just lying to himself; when a golden celestial had broken their fatal golden body, it was extremely fatal to their cultivation core and it was also beyond any hope of repair.

    If his neck was twisted like her, he would have died instantly and moreover Hua Xunzi also had her body twisted by the Demonic High Immortal Ena.

    Ji Yuan said panicky and his eyes were shimmering hot with his tears, "Listen, you got to muster all your profound strength for healing. As long as you live, it doesn''t matter if you lose your cultivation strength. With your talent, it is only a matter of time before you can cultivate it back to the great saintess level¡­"

    Hua Xunzi forced a smile, "Silly¡­ I won''t die¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a loud cry, "You should not talk but focus all your mental will for your healing instead. I know that you are just trying tofort me¡­"

    He turned to look at alluring figure of Bai Qianfeng who was behind him and said, "Qianfeng, can you do anything to help her? You are an immortal. Surely you can help her? Where are your immortal profound treasures?"

    Bai Qianfeng disyed a look at surprise at Ji Yuan, "Help her? Why should I?"

    Ji Yuan stammered, "She is a friend of mine¡­ so you have to help her."

    Bai Qianfeng shrugged her shoulders to leap and sh to where Zhi Jiugong was; this only took her a split second. In just a blink of an eye, she had moved a mile away and she had echoed. "Why should I? I can''t help her."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was startled: Big Brother, did our Qianfeng just leave like this?

    Fairy Anyang weakly said: She sure did. Therefore it is obvious to even an immortal that it is hopeless to save Hua Xunzi now and our lord here doesn''t even have any heaven-defying profound treasures to prolong her life.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly: You have all misunderstood Qianfeng. She means to say that it is better to give her a clean and painless death¡­<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    Fairy Anyang asked curiously: So you will give her a clean and painless death then?

    Xiang Li muttered weakly: My Big Brother is going to kill an innocent? This won''t do. She just saved your life¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned as he tried to suppress the hot tears that were in his heart: Do you think that I will be so cruel? I am going to be a romantic cultivator of course and see her through the end of her life...

    With that he had caught hold of Hua Xunzi and said gently to her, "Maiden Hua Xunzi, you have lost your life because of me. There is nothing that I can say to you that can allow me to rte my emotions to you. But since you have saved me and you are now dying in front of my eyes, I shall make you into my consort to be part of my n and I shall remember this day forever¡­"

    Hua Xunzi was startled as she interrupted weakly, "I am only your consort because¡­ I have saved your life? Then I¡­ don''t want to be your consort¡­ saving you is because you have given me a hope, that''s all¡­ and also¡­"

    "Don''t say anymore!" Ji Yuan had interrupted her angrily and he was wailing out loud, "I take you as my consort because I like you and not because you have saved me! Don''t you understand my heart?"

    Xiang Li was also sobbing: Big Brother is so impressive when he is acting to be a romantic cultivator.

    Fairy Anyang was smiling weakly: Our lord doesn''t look like he was actually acting.

    Hua Xunzi was startled as she stared at Ji Yuan, "Really¡­"

    Ji Yuan said firmly as he trembled, "Really. I swear by my soul sea!"

    Hua Xunzi was suddenly flushing and she had found the added profound strength that she had needed to disy her secret profound skill; this time round it was much quicker than before.

    Right in front of Ji Yuan, she was suddenly twisting her form back to her original form and was like a doll.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and was stunned.

    He had suddenly realized why Bai Qianfeng had suddenly left when she spotted her giggling with Zhi Jiugong behind.

    Bai Qianfeng had actually left because she had found it weird that Hua Xunzi still had so much vital life energies in her and that she must be practicing some unknown skill. As she was a high level soul immortal, her divine sense could actually read that much.

    She had never thought that Hua Xunzi would die but it was amusing to see Ji Yuan over-reacting so she had left to giggle with Zhi Jiugong as they watched what would happen next.

    And true enough, Hua Xunzi had reshaped to her original form and she could even repair the cracks of her golden body and her meridians.

    This stunned Ji Yuan¡­

    As Hua Xunzi got up, she was greatly flustered; she did try to tell Ji Yuan that she won''t die but he had kept interrupting her¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: I think that Big Brother just got himself a new consort¡­

    --------------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This chapter has a twist. If anyone remember Hua Xunzi twisting her body in the earlier chapters then you will know that she won''t die in this chapter.

 Chapter 607 Ji Yuan Finally Found The Remedy For His Beard!

    The Dark Phantom Citadel;

    Although Hua Xunzi had recovered from her near death experiences, she was still weak and in need for a recuperation.

    Bai Qianfeng had ordered the Subus Queen Minami to give Hua Xunzi the best possible care since Ji Yuan had dered that it was his intentions to take Hua Xunzi as his consort.

    But no matter if Ji Yuan was serious or not in taking Hua Xunzi as his consort, she had saved Ji Yuan''s life and this was undeniable. Therefore Bai Qianfeng had ordered the best possible profound pills to be found and given to Hua Xunzi.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was actually seriously injured as well and he was also given the high level precious profound pills for his recuperation as well.

    Ji Yuan was now resting in his room when the Subus Queen Minami had entered with a tray of high grade profound pills and spirit fruits.

    "It is Queen Minami." Heughed. "Actually you can just order your underlings to do this task."

    The Subus Queen Minami chuckled for a while before she smiled, "Lord Ji Yuan''s injuries cannot be attended by just anyone. I have to personally attend to your needs."

    Ji Yuan returned an awkward look before he asked quietly, "Hmm, how is Maiden Hua Xunzi? Is she well now?"

    The Subus Queen Minami nodded with a smile but she was soon saying, "She is recovering well. At that time, I had thought that she would surely be dead. Frankly speaking, I''ve never seen a profound skill like this before. It must be a supreme or a miracle profound skill."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "It is a miracle that she can still be alive and she can even muster the willpower to restore her body to its original shape. The possibility of a failure is just too high for this profound skill and most people will never even practice it in the first ce."

    The Subus Queen Subus nodded slowly, "She must have a terrible woeful past that enable her to see past the deadly death experiences. Or maybe some other terrible dark experiences."

    Ji Yuan did not disagree; some profound skills were best mastered when a cultivator had experienced some terrible depressing acts.

    "You are going to take her as your consort?" The Subus Queen Minami asked him curiously.

    JI Yuanughed awkwardly, "She knows that I am joking and just trying tofort her."

    "Is that so?" The Subus Queen Minami sighed softly. "She is such a beautiful and coyly looking maiden. If you don''t take her as your consort, it would be such a waste."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he tried to change the topic of the discussion, "By the way, have you got a profound pill in this divine realm that can restore a person''s beard?"

    The Subus Queen Minami was startled, "Why do you need this for?"

    Ji Yuan tried to exin as solemnly as possible, "Surely you can tell that I''ve lost my beard during my cultivation breakthrough? What if I breakthrough to be an immortal in the future and have all the bearded immortalsughing at me? If so, where do you think that I can hide my face then?"

    The Subus Queen Minami had wanted to tell Ji Yuan that he was already the most beautiful man that she had ever seen and an ugly beard would hide his beautiful glory. But she decided to keep this to herself by saying, "We do have 1 profound pill that can restore the beard loss due to the mishaps caused by the cultivation breakthroughs. But it is really very precious..."

    Ji Yuan muttered softly to interrupt and there was excitement in his golden eyes, "Is it expensive?"

    The Subus Queen Minami smiled, "It is but for my lord, it is free."<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    JI Yuan was suddenly delighted, "Really? Haha..."

    "Yes, it is absolutely free." The Subus Queen Minami smiled, "As long as my lord is willing to bestow upon your special favors upon me and always regard me kindly, this is already my best reward."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he patted the Subus Queen Minami on her naked back, "As long as Queen Minami is able to get me this profound pill, I can give you all kinds of special favors."

    The Subus Queen Minami was flustered as she felt Ji Yuan''s touch on her back, "It will be my honor to serve my lord for a single night then."

    With that she had shyly added, "I can go and find it now."

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he said spiritedly, "The sooner the better! Haha..."

    The Subus Queen Minami winked at Ji Yuan as she put the tes of profound pills and spirit fruits down, "In that case, I''ll go and get it now for my lord."

    When she had said that, she had left, leaving Ji Yuan tough jovially in the bedroom.

    She had perfectly got the hint that Ji Yuan was going to copte with her for a single night.

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted, "And she only ask to serve me for a single night? It looks like I didn''t even need to pay anything for it. I can imagine myself eating the rich spirit fruits here while she peeled for me to eat. Haha..."

    Heughed aloud as he turned to soul sea, "Xiang Li and Anyang! Are you d that I''m going to get back my beard now?"

    Total silence...

    "Erm, Xiang Li and Anyang?"

    Xiang Li and Anyang had purposely refused to reply to Ji Yuan because they all hated his beard and cannot imagine how ugly he would look.

    Ji Yuan was thinking how manly he would look with his beard back and he was rejoicing jovially, "Finally! I have finally found the remedy of getting my beard in this ce. This is my best reward for being in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Hoho hoho..."

    He began to pace around, "Then with my beard, I am going to be the most romantic cultivator and I will get to bed my Jiajia finally. One hundred years ago, with my romantic beard around, I was able to impress my Jiajia..."

    "And she likes me so much that she had even given me her divine sword..."

    Xiang Li said quietly to Anyang: Am I supposed to feel ''impress''?

    Fairy Anyang sighed to Xiang Li: He can actually find a remedy in this ce...

    Xiang Li weakly cry: Huhu... I am just surprised that he can still actually remember about his beard at this time...

 Chapter 608 Ji Yuan And Zhi Jiugong

    Just as Ji Yuan was eagerly waiting for the Subus Queen Minami to fetch the profound pill to restore his beard for him, Zhi Jiugong had entered his bed chamber.

    As she entered, she was asking with great concern. "My lord, are you feeling better now?"

    She saw that Ji Yuan seemed to be quite delighted and she looked a little flustered.

    It was because she knew that the Subus Queen Minami was in Ji Yuan''s bed chamber a while ago and because of that, she had hesitated to enterinto Ji Yuan''s bed chamber.

    After all, the Subus Queen Minami really had a good figure and was mesmerzing. She was the type that the male cultivators would like.

    And moreover she was able to bring her sexuality to the full y in her enticing undies.

    Zhi Jiugong never had the courage to dress the way she did. She did y with some really sexy dresses in the past but she was not willing to disy it in public.

    She was totally different from her doll avatar.

    Only when the Subus Queen Minami had left Ji Yuan''s bed chamber, did she manage to muster some courage to enter his bed chamber.

    When Ji Yuan saw her, he was naturally delighted as he smiled happily, "Maiden Zhi Jiugong, I am well. My bones are harder than I thought. Haha..."

    The expression of Zhi Jiugong habored a feeling of hurt as she muttered, "Maiden Zhi Jiugong? You are too polite..."

    That night back in the hidden human vige in the Dark Phantom Forest, they had been intimate for the very first time and Zhi Jiugong had lost her chastity to Ji Yuan. But he was still addressing her so politely...

    Ji Yuan asked, "I am too polite?"

    Zhi Jiugong averted her mncholy before smiling, "Am I not worthy of the Great Hero Ji Yuan who is surrounded by so many great beauties nowadays. You have the lucky urences to have two emperor-step divine swords and is destined to have a great destiny ahead of you. Even my Protege Sister Bai Qianfeng is your consort. Although I am a great saintess, I am no help to you in this ce and I didn''t even have an opportunity to find my lucky urences in this ce..."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her with a wry smile as he lifted her chin up to look into him, "You are my sweet Jiugong and I love you as much as much as my Qianfeng."

    Zhi Jiugong started to avert her golden eyes, "I am not as astonishing beautiful as Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden, not as cute and lovely as Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress, or as coy and enchanting looking as Hua Xunzi who can sacrifice herself to save your life, or as divine and alluring as your Qianfeng, nor am I as enticing to behold as Misa, Miya and the Queen Subus Minami..."

    She was suddenly in hot tears now...

    Ji Yuan had suddenly kissed her forehead and moved down to kiss her lips, "But you are my noble and beautiful Jiugong. In terms of beauty, you are in the top 3 in Bliss City. How can you bepared to the rest? You are unique and I love you as my consort. In fact, I am so d that you are my dear consort."

    Zhi Jiugong was stunned as she looked into Ji Yuan''s golden eyes, "Really..."

    Ji Yuan nodded with a grin, "If you are the same as the others then won''t you be a little too boring? It is all looks and no talents. Among the maidens, I think you are as learnt as Maiden Feng Minyue. You should talk to her more and she is also good with the zither. Most times, I have also called her Maiden Feng Minyue because I have respected her and not because I do not love her. It is the same as for you."

    Zhi Jiugong was startled; maybe it was she that was overthinking it instead.

    "You are never inferior to any of my consorts or sweethearts." Ji Yuan was now smiling to her. "How do you know that I will get an emperor-step divine sword?"<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    "And in what way are you inferior to me? That day when I saw you with two spirit animus, I was like holy shit; this is too OP." Ji Yuanughed. "You are probably the strongest among your 3 sisters."

    Then he started to inhale heavily, "In terms of profound animus and the depth of our inner cultivation sea, I am probably inferior to most of you save for my Chengxi and Yan''Er. After all, I am only a weak sword cultivator most of the time..."

    "No," Zhi Jiugong smiled and this time she was trying tofort Ji Yuan instead. "There no sword cultivator with your reflexes. Now I know why you are able to pass the Sword Saint Trial and be recognized as one. The Sword Saint Trial is a life and death trial. If you fail, you will die. And there are too many fake sword saints around. There are many cultivators that try to fake that they are sword saints with a rare sword spirit but the truth is, the Sword Saint Trial isn''t about your cultivation realm or strength."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "You even know about this? I am amazed."

    The Sword Saint Trial was too brutal and Ji Yuan had never talk about his hallowing death experiences.

    He knew that Fairy Ye Chengxi had an equally death hallowing death experiences and that was why he was astonished when she had be a Sword Saintess like his other beloved Jian Yuluo.

    The Sword Saint Trial required them to be extremely fast, both in speed, judgement and reflexes.

    Most of all, they had to drain the spirit animus of their opponent with their superior attacks. It was extremely testing on their patience, guts and willpower because they were constantly under threat of deaths.

    Ji Yuan actually did not look like a typical Sword Saint at all and most people tended to overlook his sword skills and deadly speed.

    Zhi Jiugong was now smiling now after Ji Yuan had told her that he had never looked down upon her.

    So she tried to ask about something happier, "You must have a great romance with my Protege Sister Qianfeng, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly flustered and his golden eyes began to dart around before he whispered to her, "Haha... actually I have tried to skin her alive when we first met. She had turned herself into a nine tail silver fox and I thought that she was worth alot of high grade spirit stones... hopefully she did not remember this grudge..."

    "You are serious?!" Zhi Jiugong was shocked.

    Ji Yuan awkwardly replied, "They managed to convince me that she is worth much more alive than being skinned."

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

    Ji Yuan had suddenlyughed, "Let me tell you something even better. I am about to receive a profound pill that will restore my beard very soon! Haha..."

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

    Zhi Jiugong: ...

 Chapter 609 Zhi Jiugong Playing Flute For Ji Yuan (R18)

    Ji Yuan was now saying with anticipation to Zhi Jiugong, "Do you feel excited that I will be getting my beard back?"

    Zhi Jiugong looked a little confused when she had thought of his hair on his chin and below...

    But she faintly smiled as she looked at Ji Yuan sentimentally, "As long as my lord likes it, your Jiugong will surely like it."

    Actually she had meant it with her heart and was sincere. It was because she really likes Ji Yuan and had even surrendered her heart and body to him.

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw the sincerity in the reflection of her golden eyes.

    Finally he had someone other than Shui Qingqing that appreciated his beautiful beard!

    Then he jokingly said, "Maiden Zhi Jiugong, you have such a heavenly voice and I wonder if you are able to y the flute for me."

    Actually Ji Yuan was only teasing Zhi Jiugong and ying flute actually had another meaning and it was helping him to blow his little brother.

    However Zhi Jiugong was a noble maiden who and recently only lost her chastity so she would not be able to understand his hidden meaning.

    However this was not something that Ji Yuan actually minded; it was because he was in no condition of any strenuous activities as he had broken his bones in several parts.

    To his startled surprise. Zhi Jiugong shyly said. "If my lord has the mood then I shall y the flute for you."

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said to himself: Actually I don''t mean this flute but that flute...

    "My lord, you are injured and in condition for any strenuous activities. Why don''t you rx on your bed and let your consort herefort you?" Zhi Jiugong took a meaningful look at him.

    Ji Yuan was startled: Rx myself? On my bed?

    Zhi Jiugong had suddenly loosened the belt on her tight robe and Ji Yuan was suddenly gulping.

    Ji Yuan began to wonder: She knows what i mean?

    He had suddenly remembered her firm breasts in his hands and he was itching to grope her now...

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were suddenly gasping as they broke their radio silence over Ji Yuan''s excitement for his beard.

    Zhi Jiugong gently brushed her long hair to a side before she put her hands on Ji Yuan''s waist, "May my lord undo your soul bond on your belt."

    If you were Ji Yuan, would you reject a request from such an exquisite maiden?

    Naturally Ji Yuan was not an idiot and he knew that Zhi Jiugong had fully caught on into his meanings.

    The belt that was on Ji Yuan had loosened all of a sudden as Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Look at me. In my weaken condition, even the soul bond on my belt is loosened."

    Fairy Anyang groaned: Our lord is too shameless...

    But Xiang Li on the other hand was giggling nonstop.

    But Zhi Jiugong had merely smile to say, "I have heard that my lord has taken too many masculine profound pillstely and need to vent. I can help you."

    Ji Yuan was really startled when Zhi Jiugong had pulled down his pants from within his poor man''s robe and she was feeling him below with her soft fingers.

    But he was feeling awkward now because even Zhi Jiugong knew about his masculine profound pills; just how many gossips did these maidens exchange be<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    After she had massaged him for a while as she was looking dazedly at his flute, she began to lower her head down to put her cherry lips onto his flute.

    Ji Yuan wasughing awkwardly but he was also looking reallyfortable and he could see the long silver threads that were forming from her saliva and his yang essence from her cherry lips.

    This went on for some time until Ji Yuan could not resist his urge anymore and started to pour his yang essence down her throat which she choked for a while before trying to swallow it.

    Zhi Jiugong had put her slender hand on her mouth as though she was afraid that she may spill Ji Yuan''s yang essence.

    After she had fully swallowed it, she smiled at Ji Yuan and her hands were still on her cherry lips.

    This momentary smile that was disyed by Zhi Jiugong was deeply etched in Ji Yuan''s mind as this smile was simply the most beautiful smile that could be disyed by a maiden for her man.

    Ji Yuan was afraid that this would be the end and he was now looking disappointed.

    But Zhi Jiugong seemed to be able to read his mind as she said softly, "My lord, may you rest on the bed while I make you reallyfortable. Let your humble Jiugong do the hard work for you until the day of your full recovery."

    With that she had let her robe fell to the ground before she climbed to Ji Yuan''s bed.

    Ji Yuan could see that she was now lifting her skirt and he could see her panties had a wet patch below. Then she had started to remove her top undie to reveal her firm breasts which she tried to cover with her hands.

    Ji Yuan was gasping at her naked glory and if he was not heavilly injured now, he would get up to feel her firm breasts in his hands.

    Then he saw that Zhi Jiugong had also removed her skirt and was pulling down her panties to reveal her perfectly slit holynd that looked like a single line.

    But Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes could see that her single line was dotted with her dews and from her flushed look, he knew that she was aroused as she was looking down at his flute...

    A flustered Zhi Jiugong then began to sit on top of Ji Yuan and she had spread her beautiful jaded legs in front of him and had exposed her beautiful watery holynd.

    With a soft gasp, she had forced Ji Yuan''s flute to enter into her wet holynd and she was gasping heavenly until Ji Yuan was fully inside her.

    Then she started to rock slowly and was slowly riding Ji Yuan.

    This caused Ji Yuan to be extremelyfortable and the feeling of being served by such a noble maiden like Zhi Jiugong was enough to send waves of manly vibes into his pride; he was now being intimated with one of the strongest great saintesses in the entire Celestial Realm and was dominating over her.

    Time passed and Ji Yuan could see beads of fragrant perspiration on her forehead and body.

    And Ji Yuan was looking at where her perky firm breasts were when the beads of perspiration started to be soaky.

    Hours passed and Zhi Zhigong was still rocking onto Ji Yuan endlessly.

    She was persperating heavily now and her body was dripping with her fragrant sweat.

    But so was Ji Yuan as he caught hold of her hips to thrust deeper into her.

    All in all, both had already climaxed multiple times.

    Ji Yuan felt like the luckiest man now as he enjoyed the view of Zhi Jiugong''s dripping sweats and her firm perky breasts that he had wanted to see and groped hard...

    The two of them hadplelely forgotten about the passage of time...

 Chapter 610 Cultivator Origin Profound Pill

    When the Queen Subus Minami had finally found the profound pill that could restore Ji Yuan''s beard and had returned to where his bed chamber was, she was quite startled to hear lewd noisesing from inside.

    She was immediately flustered and this was unusual for a subus since they were the pros in this aspect.

    The reason why she was flushing was that she truly cared about how the Sword Demon Lord Ji Yuan was viewing her and how he had regarded her; to her, having a status was extremely important in the caste of the demonic races.

    She was naturally unwilling to be just the mistress of this small Dark Phantom Citadel.

    As she peeped with her divine sense, she was startled that it was Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong. Actually she was not startled that Ji Yuan was intimated with one of his consort maidens but Zhi Jiugong had struck her as a maiden with a noble demeanor. And they were actually making such lewd noises without a sound barrier?

    The reason why a sound barrier was not erected was because Zhi Jiugong had not expected Ji Yuan to make such a ridiculous request and she was grieved in her heart earlier.

    And when her mood had lightened and Ji Yuan wanted her service, she was all too willing to help him.

    She actually had not forgotten about it but once she had started, it was too hard for her to stop.

    So right now the Subus Queen Minami was waiting outside as she listened to their lewd sounds for hours; it was extremely arousing and she was forced to erect a sound barrier and to prevent the others from entering the court yard that belonged to the Sword Demon Lord Ji Yuan.

    Right now, she was not the only ones who were getting aroused; Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were also watching with interest in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    The two of them were giggling as they started to p each other palms in a high five as though they were the ones that were collecting the harem instead of Ji Yuan.

    They did not expect that a badly injured Ji Yuan would be able to enjoy such good services. This had reallye at a most unexpected timing and they had quickly forgotten about Ji Yuan''s beard remedy.

    But all things muste to an end eventually.

    Eventually Zhi Jiugong was tired and she was lying on top of Ji Yuan and she was dripping with her fragrances on him.

    Ji Yuan could feel her firm bosoms pressing onto his chest and he was delighted while he hugged her tightly at the same time.

    This was the second time that he had been intimated with Zhi Jiugong and now this felt like the doll Zhi Jiugong that he had seen inside Bliss City¡­

    Zhi Jiugong did not know that Ji Yuan was actually thinking about the scenes that he had seen in Bliss City but Ji Yuan was a normal man and he was no saint in such matters.

    While all the MCs always have a righteous existence or a viin existence, Ji Yuan was more like the typically MC that got lucky with these maidens. He got nothing except for his beautiful looks and poetry talents. If it was not for his friend Guo Taiming that had spread his infamous poem all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity, he would probably have spent his time in the trials that were scattered in his celestial fraternity and eventually ventured into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth alone.

    Given his infamousrge mouth like most of the typical young masters or sect masters, he would probably offend several more celestials and had to flee with his sword behind his back.

    Unless it was a huge crime of extermination, the celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity was actually more forgiving because most of them had the bad habit of offending the wrong person; as long as they were willing to go into exile for a hundred years, everything would be forgiven ording to the celestialws of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Other ces may have shorter or longer exile period for the celestials, depending on the celestial fraternity that they were in.

    The main reason why Ji Yuan had decided to go for his breakthrough in the past was not because he truly feared Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue but because he needed to say something impressive to Jiajia when he was about to go into exile.

    If you were Ji Yuan, you would probably care about your face and would not tell Jiajia that you would be going into a hundred year reclusion because you wanted to escape from two saintesses, right?

    So Ji Yuan had actually told Jiajia that actually he was going for his breakthrough to the saint level as a face saving measure. And he told her that he was making a breakthrough to have a fighting chance with the two saintesses.

    Now alot of people may think that fighting chance means the ability to fight the two saintesses but it actually meant that Ji Yuan was of the same cultivation level as them and they could talk on the same level.

    The rules were always different when applying for the cultivators of the different cultivation levels!

    But Ji Yuan was not merely saying he would attempt a breakthrough; he was dead serious especially when Jiajia was willing to pledge a hundred years to wait for him.

    A hundred years to a sixth cultivation realm peaked golden supremacy like Ji Yuan was actually nothing and he was already ageless and he did not require any food or water.

    However it was too soon for him for a breakthrough as he had just attained to the peaked golden supremacy not long ago and he did not even have the time to cumte a lot of spiritual stones and profound pills. In fact, he was 500 years too early and he could have waited 500 yearster.

    Ji Yuan had attained the sixth golden supremacy fairly quickly because this cultivation level was the spirit level while the seventh cultivation realm was the soul cultivation level; his mental willpower had always been stronger and sharper than most of his peers.<novelnext>  </novelnext>

    So using whatever his fighting spirits could gather, he had attempted for his breakthrough.

    However, it was proving harder than he had expected and it had taken him a full 100 years before he decided to force his way to the saint cultivation level. Luckily divine swords were always helpful with a breakthrough and he had sustained his spiritual energies through his divine sword that acted as a conduit to absorb the spiritual energies of the mountains.

    When he had finallypletely his breakthrough to attain his seventh cultivation realm and to reform his golden body once again, he was like a hungry wolf that was being starved for profound replenishing pills.

    But this was not the point of why we were refreshing Ji Yuan''s chapter 1 cultivation story all over again.

    The main point was that Ji Yuan had lost his beautiful ''BEARD'' during his hasty cultivation breakthrough and today was the day that he would finally get back his beautiful beard!

    When the Subus Queen Minami noticed that everything was quiet, she waited for a little longer; she knew that they must be resting in each other''s arms right now.

    When she had heard movements again in the bed chamber, she knew that they must be dressing up now and she said beautifully into the bed chamber, "My lord, may your humble Minamie in with your profound pill now?"

    It was not before long she could hear Ji Yuan''s exciting loud voice, "Pleasee in quickly! Please!"

    When she had entered Ji Yuan''s bed chamber finally, she was excited and was eager; it was because her lord Ji Yuan had promised her one precious night together if she could get him the beard remedy profound pill that could restore his beautiful beard.

    The Subus Queen Minami was smiling as she carried a tray and on top of this tray was a luminous profound pill; this was actually a rare fifth rank profound pill and really precious to create. This was the Cultivator Origin Profound Pill that many cultivators would actually fight for because they would not allow any blemish to happen during their cultivation breakthrough; all the cultivators wanted the others to know that they had a perfect breakthrough or were trying to hide their blemishes.

    Ji Yuan was now looking with eager anticipation at this Cultivator Origin Profound Pill and next to him was Zhi Jiugong who was looking as noble and serene as usual.

    Ji Yuan however was not looking noble or serene; he was looking like a hungry wolf as he snatched the Cultivator Origin Profound Pill and he was swallowing it with a loudughter the minute that he saw it, "Muhahahaha¡­ finally!"

    As soon as he swallowed this Cultivator Origin Profound Pill, its profound energies were suddenly exploding inside his spiritual seas and it got dissipated all of a sudden.

    Ji Yuan was shocked and he was blinking his golden eyes, "What exactly has just happened just now?!"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Subus Queen Minami were both in great shock, "This profound pill did not work?!"

    Indeed the Cultivator Origin Profound Pill was wasted and had dissipated; it was unable to amalgamated into Ji Yuan''s spiritual sea at all!

    The Subus Queen Minami was trembling for her night with Ji Yuan was over all of a sudden, "My lord, have you eaten something previously that prevent the use of Cultivator Origin Profound Pill?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "No?"

    He asked Xiang Li, "Have I eaten anything wrongtely?"

    Even Xiang Li was perplexed, "No?"

    The Subus Queen Minami asked again, "Have you eaten any fake remedy recently that may have caused this anomaly to happen?"

    Ji Yuan began to think really hard before he muttered, "Erm, Jiajia had once given me a fake remedy. You don''t think that may be the reason?"

    See Chapter 128.

    The Subus Queen Minami bitterly said, "That may be the only possible reason¡­"

    Regardless, Zhi Jiugong, Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were both secretly rejoicing now and they all wanted to kiss Jiajia now.

    ----------------

    Author Note:

    1. Back in Chapter 128, Jiajia has already ensured that Ji Yuan could not get back his beard anymore xD

 Chapter 611 Hua Xunzi Seduces Ji Yuan

    A few dayster when Ji Yuan was getting better enough to walk and got over his great disappointment that he was struck as a beardless cultivator, he had decided to pay a visit to Hua Xunzi.

    It was because her injuries looked more severe than him.

    As this was a sudden decision, he did not tell anyone and moreover it was night now.

    In the past few days, Zhi Jiugong had been taking good care of him while the Subus Queen Minami seemed to be brooding over something whenever he took a look at her.

    So he told her, "I am alright. You can settle your sect affairs first. I have Maiden Zhi Jiugong to take care of me."

    This caused the Subus Queen Minami to brood even darker.

    As Ji Yuan was also brooding over the loss of his beautiful beard so he did not notice the brooding look that was on the Subus Queen Minami.

    It was not before long that he had reached the court yard that led to Hua Xunzi''s residence.

    There were actually several female cultivators that were standing guard here but when they saw Ji Yuan, they quickly gave way to him as they respectfully gave him a half bow.

    When he had walked past them, they were all raising their lovely countenances and were giggling silently; it was because this Sword Demon Lord Ji Yuan was simply just too good lookingpared to the ugly beastman, ogre and fiend male cultivators!

    Ji Yuan had entered the inner court yard and there were also some female cultivators that were on guard in the premises.

    But when they saw that it was actually the Sword Demon Ji Yuan, they giggled soft as they quickly left the inner court yard.

    Ji Yuan did not think much of their behaviors as he was not familiar with the ways of the demonic cultivators. He then quietly knocked on Hua Xunzi''s door and said, "Maiden Hua Xunzi, it is me."

    A startled voice eximed with surprise, "Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "May Ie in?"

    Hua Xunzi said quietly, "It is already sote. Why don''t youe back in the day? We don''t want to cause any misunderstanding in the eyes of the others..."

    Ji Yuan simply pushed the door opened, breaking the weak profound bonds on the door; the door could not stop a great saint like Ji Yuan from breaking through and moreover Hua Xunzi did not reinforce it as well as she did not think that she was in any danger.

    As he entered into Hua Xunzi''s room, he was sighing broodingly and asked. "What did you say just now?"

    Hua Xunzi was startled when Ji Yuan had absented mindedly entered into her room and he did not seem to have heard her.

    "Nothing." She muttered softly.

    At thiste hour of the night, she was not resting but was sitting serenely in the small study table as she read her cultivation slip.

    However her focus was not on the cultivation slip but on what had happened between Ji Yuan and her; while reading her cultivation slips, she was actually thinking if it was proper to be with Ji Yuan because she felt that she was an undeserving maiden to have any status or attention. And moreover Little Princess was her citadel mistress and Ji Yuan was her man.

    Also, Ji Yuan had too many attractive sweethearts in his harems and even a lofty beauty like her felt that she wascking in charms in front of all these extremely beautiful maidens.

    Also, she had a wanton past and she was also from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Therefore she had already decided to leave at the first break of dawn.

    However she did not expect to see Ji Yuan tonight and he was looking quite depressed.

    Curious, she asked. "Ji Yuan, what is bothering you?"

    Maybe he wanted to tell her that he had sworn in his soul sea to take her as his consort because he had thought that she would not be able to live. But now when she was alive, he was unable to take her as his consort and was here to ask her to cancel what he had said. Then he could be freed of his heart demon.

    Ji Yuan sighed as he sat down next to her, "Maiden Hua Xunzi, are you feeling better now?"

    Hua Xunzi said quietly as she turned to look at Ji Yuan with her coyly golden eyes, "I am well now. Thanks for your concern. What is bothering you?"

    Ji Yuan had a long sigh and he had a brooding look.

    Finally he said slowly, "Not long ago, I had found a Cultivator Origin Profound Pill that can restore my beard but¡­ s!"

    Hua Xunzi was startled; this was not what she had been expecting to hear.

    She said curiously, "Isn''t this good? If this is your wish."<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuan sighed even louder, "This is the reason why I am so depressed about."

    Hua Xunzi looked a little perplexed and she said, "You are undecided if you should take this Cultivator Origin Profound Pill or not, am I right?""

    Ji Yuan was startled as he looked up: No?

    But before he could give her his reply, Hua Xunzi had misunderstood his startled look as a yes so she smiled. "Actually you should not bother to think so much over this. Beards are ugly and can get into the way. Also men that have beards have no interest in women and instead they spent too much of their time grooming their beards. Some bearded men will even develop a fetish for other men. But you are different. You have a beautiful harem and you should appreciate your beardless look."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Liughed in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: You know. I totally agree with Maiden Hua Xunzi''s point of view on this.

    Fairy Anyangughed too: Me too as well!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hua Xunzi saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly very quiet so she asked curiously, "Did I say something wrong?"

    Ji Yuan answered bitterly, "Nothing wrong¡­"

    He was not one who would purposely hurt the feeling of a maiden, especially someone who was also injured for his sake. So he had to suck his thumb and answered her otherwise.

    Actually, he had actuallye here to look for Hua Xunzi tofort him over the loss of his beautiful beard but instead, he had heard her disliking his bearded look¡­

    Worse, even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were both telling him the very same thing tonight¡­

    This caused him to look even more depressed¡­

    As Ji Yuan sunk deeper into his depression, Hua Xunzi was suddenly looking at him with a weird look.

    Hua Xunzi was actually thinking that this may be Ji Yuan''s final gift to her before she departed from this ce.

    She had actually saved her true yin essence in her cultivation core to be used for someone that she truly loves in the future. And tonight was a given opportunity. Moreover Ji Yuan looked vulnerable in his current state and he was also not a defense or power cultivator that could resist her hallucinations.

    So she said to Ji Yuan all of a sudden, "Ji Yuan, look into my eyes¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he turned to look into Hua Xunzi''s golden eyes, "Yes?"

    Hua Xunzi said slowly, "Tonight, you will be the happiest man. Are you willing to be a happy man?"

    Ji Yuan dully said, "I am willing to be a happy man¡­"

    Fairy Anyang asked Xiang Li: Erm, what is this Hua Xunzi doing to our lord here?

    Xiang Li covered her face as she giggled: I think she is trying to get intimate with our lord here. If so, we shouldn''t break her mesmerizing spell over our lord.

    As Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were Ji Yuan''s spirit entities, they could also strengthen his resistances or to cause soul attacks to fail immediately.

    But at this moment, they had purposely allowed Ji Yuan to be caught in Hua Xunzi''s mesmerizing hypnosis¡­

    Author Note:

    1. Hua Xunzi is actually to try Ji Yuan''s seeds, if you know what I mean *___*

 Chapter 612 Farewell From Hua Xunzi

    Ji Yuan had a strange dream all of a sudden.

    One instant he was looking at a bewitching Hua Xunzi and in the next instant, he was watching her stripping herself naked in front of him.

    Now in terms of desirability, Hua Xunzi was second to the Lovely Empress and Little Princess but that was enough to drive any man crazy with lust for her coquettish look and body.

    And Ji Yuan was not an exception.

    He had been discreetly looking at Hua Xunzi for some time, at her butt and her bosoms, thinking how great it may be if she was interested in him.

    However Hua Xunzi had never expressed her interest in him and had maintained a respectful distance away from him.

    Moreover he knew that she needed to recover from her nightmare attack first from that big ogre cultivator.

    No matter how much desire that Ji Yuan had for a maiden but he had to first respect her; this was his dao.

    But this was a dream, right?

    Right now, he was watching Hua Xunzi with great passion.

    Hua Xunzi inhaled softly as she said to him, "Just think of this as a dream. I''m sorry that I am going to borrow your seeds. After that, you won''t be able to see me again. As a man, you will have nothing to lose and there won''t be any regrets. Also, you don''t have to take me as your consort too."

    Ji Yuanughed in his dream, "Why shouldn''t I take you as my consort? You are so beautiful¡­"

    Hua Xunzi returned a faint smile, "This is a dream. Dream talks are never serious¡­"

    There was a hint of guilt in her golden eyes because she was serious but she quickly said, "Come¡­"

    Ji Yuan found himself carrying Hua Xunzi into her fragrant bed and he enjoyed the feel of her soft bedding, "Xunzi, your bed is just so wonderful. This fragrance is so wondrous¡­"

    Hua Xunzi smiled as she nodded lightly; she knew that her charms were working perfectly because Ji Yuan was now talking about anything that he had seen and felt.

    Usually most men would not talk about minor stuffs like this.

    Ji Yuan seemed to be in daze and in the next instant, he was naked and in bed with Hua Xunzi.

    He imagined himself touching all over Hua Xunzi and her holynds. When she did not resist, he got bolder.

    In this dream, Hua Xunzi was really sensual and amodating.

    Ji Yuan really had such a good time that he did not want this to end and his depression over his beard had been lifted by quite a bit.

    In fact he had quite forgotten about it as he was being distracted by her naked sights.

    He had finally gotten a good look between her wless jaded legs and it was a most wondrous sight.

    Finally he was able to sleep now.

    He thought that only his Qianfeng was able to cure his insomnia by hugging her but it seemed that Hua Xunzi was also able to cure his insomnia as well.

    Finally Hua Xunzi looked a little daze as she looked at him with her beautiful and coyly countenance, "Good bye Ji Yuan¡­"

    And then Ji Yuan had fallen asleep.

    When Ji Yuan had awakened, he felt like he had a good sleep and he was covered with a nket.

    But he was suddenly looking startled because he saw Zhi Jiugong and the Subus Queen Minami next to his bed.

    "Huh? What are the two of you doing in my bed chamber?"

    Zhi Jiugong looked a little awkward as she asked him, "What are you doing in Maiden Hua Xunzi''s bed instead?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly looked around; he was indeed not in his bed chamber.

    The Subus Queen Minami weakly said to him, "What did you do to Maiden Hua Xunzi? She is gone now."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he muttered, "What did I do to Maiden Hua Xunzi? And she is gone now?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    He had suddenly remembered that he had banged Hua Xunzi''sst night¡­

    Zhi Jiugong was trembling lightly, "My lord, you have entered her living quarter yesterday and¡­"

    "You have forced yourself on her?" Added the Subus Queen Subus.

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "I''ve forced myself on her?!"

    Come to think of this, he had indeed forced himself on her but he had thought that this was but a beautiful dream? How could he have done something like this?

    He quickly turned to his soul sea to ask Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang: Xiang Li, Anyang. What exactly happenedst night? Did I force myself on Maiden Hua Xunzi?

    Xiang Li was giggling: Yes, you did. You keep saying that she is so coquettish and her body is so nice¡­

    Anyang was giggling shyly too: You have said so many embarrassing words that I can''t bear to tell you what you had said. But it is all lewd, lewd things.

    Ji Yuan was startled: I have really forced myself on her?!

    He was shocked.

    But he did not know that Xiang Li and Anyang had no concept on who was forced as they thought that Ji Yuan was always the alpha male.

    He was now trembling as he looked at Zhi Jiugong and the Subus Queen Minami.

    As he tried to get up, all of a sudden he spotted a letter dropping onto the ground.

    "There is a letter?"

    This was not lost upon Zhi Jiugong or the Subus Queen Minami.

    Ji Yuan quietly opened the letter to read:

    "Ji Yuan."

    "By now, when you see this letter, I''ll be gone."

    "What happens between you and me is not meant tost. I am the willing party in this. So you should not hold yourself guilty over this matter."

    "I thank you for your time andpany."

    "From now onward, I should be on my own again."

    "Knowing you is the happiest moment of my life and you have taught me that it is never toote to repent. Finally I can say now that I am no longer from the Evil Cultivation Pce and I have a good citadel mistress that is willing to allow me to repent. I will never forget about you."

    "You don''t have to hold your oath to take me as your consort because I will surely reject your kind offer."

    "We are from different celestial fraternities and we each have our own destinies."

    "Farewell Ji Yuan, from Hua Xunzi."

    Ji Yuan''s golden eyes were suddenly bleary red and he was saying with trembling emotions, "You are the willing party but I am not. How do you know that I did not want you to stay¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Subus Queen Minami had also read Hua Xunzi''s letter and they were trembling lightly; by now they knew that Hua Xunzi had actually left on her own and she was not going back.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly thrown down the letter as he trembled with great resolute, "Xunzi, once my woman, forever my woman. I''m not going to let you go just like this. Even to the ends of the earth, I shall find you! Whether you want to be my woman is another matter!"

    Author Note:

    1. I had actually wanted to write about a long battle between the liege lords of the Dark Phantom Citadel and Ji Yuan before Draconian Master Darth Ya joined in. But that will be 20 chapters longer. As this arc is actually a long arc and there are still so many things to write, I''ve decided to cut short on this to focus on other more important details.

    2. This arc is not ending yet!

 Chapter 613 Isnt This My Lovely Empress?

    Hua Xunzi was really noting back.

    As no one had seen her leaving the Dark Phantom Citadel, Ji Yuan guessed that she must have used the golden talisman that he had given her to leave this trial.

    He was saddened by her loss and had only Zhi Jiugong tofort him for the next few days.

    He was actually expecting for Bai Qianfeng to finish her ''seclusion'' by now and weirdly she had not. And Miya and Misa had specially instructions not to allow anyone to disturb her. What was more, Bai Qianfeng had put her two seventh rank deste beasts with Miya and Misa as well.

    As Ji Yuan disliked these two deste beasts and vice versa, he did not try to barge in to check.

    But he knew that Bai Qianfeng was really in seclusion because she was linked to these two deste beasts as her spirit pets. If she was safe then her spirit pets would also be alive.

    Before he left the ce where Bai Qianfeng was in seclusion, he could not help muttering. "I know that the two of you are lecherous beasts that try to upy my Qianfeng."

    This invited lots of hissings from the two deste beasts but not before Ji Yuan had fulfilled his fantasies of looking at both Miya and Misa as he left.

    It looked like a typical day while Ji Yuan waited for Bai Qianfeng toplete her seclusion. As usual he was thinking what was she doing inside her seclusion chamber and as usual Zhi Jiugong was blowing flute for him.

    Actually by now Ji Yuan had more or less recovered; the spiritual auras in this ce was really too rich and this had sped up his recovery.

    Also he had secretly pocketed quite a lot of the replenishing and recovery profound pills in secret.

    "One for me¡­"

    "Another one for my spatial ring¡­"

    "Third one for my Xiang Li¡­"

    "Fourth one for Anyang¡­"

    "Fifth one for me¡­"

    "Sixth for my spatial ring¡­"

    "Seventh for Xiang Li¡­"

    For Xiang Li and Anyang, he had actually meant he was throwing the profound pills into his spatial ring instead of giving to them.

    Xiang Li asked him curiously, "Big Brother, why are you pocketing all these profound pills when it is supposed to be feeding you?"

    Anyang had also asked the same for she did not understand too.

    Ji Yuanughed: That is because I am keeping some in reserves for my future battles. If they see that I am still not well, they will keep giving me more profound pills haha¡­"

    But after a few days, the Subus Queen Minami had told Ji Yuan. "My lord Ji Yuan, we need to cut off your profound pills supply as you may have a overdose and it will be detrimental to your cultivation attainment."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smallfort was that he still got Zhi Jiugong to service him daily.

    Today was just like another typical day as Zhi Jiugong was blowing him and her tops were loosened so that Ji Yuan would act like a beast of a man for him to fondle her firm perky breasts.

    Just as he was enjoying himself with Zhi Jiugongforting him, an extremely lovely maiden had suddenly barged in as sheughed lovingly. "Who dares to stop me from entering? I am a personal friend of Ji Yuan¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong happened to be blowing Ji Yuan and there were silver threads of her saliva and some of Ji Yuan''s yang essence on her cherry lips.

    Worse, she was also topless and Ji Yuan also happened to be groping her breasts when the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had suddenly entered into Ji Yuan''s room...

    A flustered female subus female guard was muttering weakly behind the Lovely Empress, "Lord Ji Yuan is¡­ erm¡­ having his private moments¡­ and he is not to be disturbed¡­"

    She had repeated her instructions again because she was afraid that Lord Ji Yuan would feel offended that she was disobeying him by letting someone else into his audience without his given permission.

    Ji Yuan weakly said to the flustered female subus, "You can go now. She is my erm¡­ consort as well."

    Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress was still stunned when she saw the scene that was in front of her; she had not expected that Ji Yuan and her Sister Zhi Jiugong would be this intimate in such a short time!

    Zhi Jiugong quickly wrapped her robe around her and she quickly pulled out of Ji Yuan''s flute to cover her mouth.

    However there was an ident and Ji Yuan''s flute had bounced to hit Zhi Jiugong''s face and he was spurting yang essence on her face¡­

    This caused Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress to be even more stunned¡­

    Zhi Jiugong quickly exined, "Sister Lu Jiangsu, I can exin¡­"

    Ji Yuan was also weakly exining to her, "Erm, this is a misunderstanding. I was actually really depressedtely and Maiden Zhi Jiugong is only trying tofort me¡­"

    This exnation had only caused Zhi Jiugong to flush even more and she was gasping softly, "Please don''t say anymore¡­"

    The lovely features of the Lovely Empress disyed a feeling of hurt and Ji Yuan could see the shimmering in her golden eyes, "Sister Zhi Jiugong, it isn''t your fault but this man''s fault."

    She had turned to look slowly at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan. While I am taking my trial here in this ce, you are actually enjoying yourself. Because you are so weak in this ce¡­ do you know that I''ve been so worried about you¡­"

    The Lovely Empress actually had a conflicting look when she was looking at Ji Yuan; it was because she was not upset that Ji Yuan was intimated with her Sister Zhi Jiugong. She was upset and hurt because she was not the one that Ji Yuan had in his arms¡­

    Ji Yuan was bitterly smiling to himself because he knew the reason why she was looking so hurt: Don''t give me this look. Actually you are so lovely. Even if you have not asked, I would like to bang you in this ce¡­ even if you are not free of charge."

    Author Note:

    1. Ji Yuan has united with the Lovely Empress now;)

 Chapter 614 Alone With Lovely Empress

    Ji Yuan was now sitting in his bed chamber and next to him was the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who was sitting next to him as she rocked her jaded naked legs.

    She was not shaking her lower legs but she was also singing a soft inaudible tune too; she looked happy.

    The Lovely Empress had a look of loveliness in her countenance as well as a coquettish purity that could make men sunk with depraved desires for her.

    But Ji Yuan was different as he appeared at ease in her sinful presence.

    At this moment, she was looking lovingly at Ji Yuan because she was now alone with Ji Yuan and she also was looking coyly at him.

    The minute that Ji Yuan had penned a romantic poem for her was enough for her anger subsided. The main reason was because Ji Yuan had said that he needed to be alone with her to think of the poem and being alone was what had caused her to giggle lovingly again.

    It was because she could be now be alone with Ji Yuan now.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu giggled softly, "Do you know that I was so worried for you every day? The demonic cultivators here are really tougher to beat than the ones in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I had to worry every single day for you if you are dead or alive. When they had told me that you are here with the demonic cultivators, I actually did not believe them. But I took the gambit of believing in their trickeries..."

    Then she chuckled lovingly for a while as she looked coyly at Ji Yuan before she emphasized, "At the terrible risk of my personal safety. As you know, I am such an attractive maiden..."

    "I know. You are worth 50 million high grade spirit stones per session and much more if you are a chaste maiden." Ji Yuan chuckled as he interrupted her.

    The lovely Empress rolled her golden eyes when Ji Yuan had second guessed her thoughts but she giggled, "That is only for the fake Lovely Empress and the real me is priceless. But can you afford me?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to cough weakly, "You know that I didn''t have it easy either too and was bed ridden because I had fought with an immortal cultivator. That is why your Sister Zhi Jiugong is helping to treat my injuries. I''ve been afflictated by a weird poison in my bones and yang essence."

    The Lovely Empress stared at him with disbelief, "Are you teasing me?"

    Ji Yuan lifted his arms wide and said, "Then why don''t you use your divine sense to probe my golden body? I am cracking all over."

    The Lovely Empress used her slender fingers to poke Ji Yuan and used her divine sense on him, "Hmm, this seems true and you are not faking it. But howe you didn''t die?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He muttered weakly, "Is this the way to greet an old friend? You should say that I am lucky to survive instead of asking why I didn''t die."

    The Lovely Empress hummed softly but her loveliness was radiating, "I like to say whatever I am pleased. It is none of your concern."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; this was her typical reaction.

    But he really enjoying his time with the Lovely Empress. It was because she was really a coquettish maiden and she was full of coyly expressions that were always poking fun of him.

    The Lovely Empress had actually made Ji Yuan the center of her life and she wanted his response in everything.

    They had chatted for a long time before Ji Yuan could get down to business by telling her what he had experienced in this ce while the Lovely Empress was also telling him the same.

    To his astonishing surprise, he had learnt that the Smiling Divine Maiden, his old master and Ling Feiyue were exploring a Sword Trial.

    "You mean you have seen them? But you didn''t join them?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    The Lovely Empress nodded, "It is a Sword Trial and it isn''t suitable for me to join them. They all have a sword spirit and I don''t have one. I am not even a sword practitioner. I should join them?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am not suggesting that. I am d that you are with me now."

    The Lovely Empress smiled lovingly, "Well, I am gullible enough toe to this ce. Maybe they would too."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "I thought that my name is enough to make youe to this ce but you will actually doubt my invitation. I am really so sad. I don''t mind that you sullen my name but even the name of your Sister Zhi Jiugong and Sister Bai Qianfeng are not enough to convince you that we are here?"

    The Lovely Empressughed coquettishly, "I am not as na?¡¥ve as you to believe everything that a demon cultivator would say to me. Maybe what if they had used tortured to force your name out and you had chosen to betray my Sister Zhi Jiugong and the others in order to save your own skin?"

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "I believe that only you would think of something like this..."

    At this moment he had suddenly noticed that she wasughing so coquettishly and he had actually reached out to try to grope her wavering bosoms.

    But all of a sudden the Lovely Empress had used her slender hands to cover her bosoms as she shyly said, "This is not the time yet and I believe that you will surely lose control of yourself."

    Then she looked shyly into Ji Yuan to said slowly, "In time, I will surely give you my first time but I can only give it to you on our wedding day. Is that alright with you?"

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded with a soft chuckle but he was not upset at all; after all this was a most reasonable request.

    The Lovely Empress yfully said with a soft chuckle, "Just in case you won''t be able to make it to our wedding."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly bent forward to Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle, "But I can allow you to kiss me, will that do? Kiss you above and not below. Do you want to?"

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he chuckled, "As long as it is free of charge, why not? Haha..."

    The Lovely Empress wasughing softly too but she was suddenly rolling her lovely golden eyes, "It is free of charge but I''ve suddenly remembered that you are poisoned and I don''t want to be poisoned by you. It is an immortal poison after all. So farewell..."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    "Wait, wait! Don''t go yet. Actually, erm.... I... erm... haha....e back Lovely Empress!"

    Author Note:

    1. This is a perfectly innocent scene!

 Chapter 615 Ji Yuan Finally Kisses The Lovely Empress

    Ji Yuan naturally had the chance to kiss the Lovely Empress. After all, she was just teasing him and did not believe in his ghost stories about being poisoned by an immortal. Moreover Ji Yuan did not look serious as well.

    She knew very well that Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were doing that kind of a thing and Ji Yuan was also so simted or else he would not be shooting his yang essence on her face when she had suddenly startled him.

    When Ji Yuan kissed the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, he was greatly startled as there was a lingering fragrance in her mouth; she was a natural ything that could simte the men with lust. But he had not expected that even touching and kissing her were enough to send waves of desires into his heart.

    As he kissed her, he was already putting his hands on the side of her bosoms.

    He knew that she could feel it but did not stop him so he started to get bolder and he was slowly massaging her bosoms.

    But when he was trying to put his hands down under her short skirt, a breathless Lovely Empress started to push him away and she was giggling softly with a lovely flushed countenance, "This is too much. You can''t control yourself and I won''t be able to control myself."

    Ji Yuan gasped breathlessly as well, "What do you propose? You are just too lovely and I can''t control myself¡­"

    Not even Ji Yuan was unable to control his urges but Xiang Li and Anyang were gasping with startled shock: The show is over so fast? Is there more?

    Xiang Li sobbed: So, no more bang, bang now?

    Fairy Anyang muttered: This is indeed disappointing¡­

    The Lovely Empress smiled at Ji Yuan with a yful chuckle, "Why don''t I blow for you? Just like my Sister Zhi Jiugong?"

    Ji Yuan was delighted and heughed, "Really? Haha. This would be most excellent¡­"

    The Lovely Empress said with a flushed coquettishly look as she lowered her countenance shyly, "However this is my first time doing it. You mustn''t scold me or be impatient with me. Alright?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "How would I be angry with you? The less inexperience the better. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang had both brightened up and they were giggling softly now in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    JI Yuanughed to the Lovely Empress, "So shall we begin?"

    The Lovely Empress took a weak look at him as she rolled her lovely golden eyes, "You didn''t remove your robe or take off your pants yet."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm, I am waiting for you to help me¡­"

    The Lovely Empress chuckled, "Do you think that I will fall for your trick? What if you have not removed your soul bond in your belt yet? What if you suddenly ask me what am I doing? That would be so awkward, am I right? What if you have used me of molesting you instead? Where can I hide my maiden face?"

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted from awkwardness when he had heard her; she was really so inexperienced and only an inexperienced maiden would say something like this.

    The Lovely Empress looked at him with a weird look, "What are you still waiting for?"

    JI Yuan muttered, "I''m waiting for a forey¡­"

    "Forey?" The Lovely Empress looked at him with a perplexed look.

    Ji Yuan muttered with a weakugh, "Never mind."

    He loosened the soul bound in his belt and started to loosen his belt before reaching to pull his pant down; he had thought that it was a bad idea to exin further to the Lovely Empress on what was a forey. It would get reallyplicated the more that he tried to exin it and he may even scare her off. The aim now was to get her to blow for him while she still had the mood.

    This was the rule number 1 and 3 of the Gentleman''s guide to winning over the affections of a maiden!

    Xiang Li who could hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts, asked him curiously: Howe I didn''t know that you have such a gentleman guide?

    Fairy Anyang was asking curiously too: I''ve thought that our lord only knows the Lewd Guide of the Cultivator?<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly: I am the gentleman of the sword. Talk to the two of youter. This is more pressing¡­

    The Lovely Empress gasped when she saw Ji Yuan''s little brother but she soonposed to giggle softly, "It looks smaller when I saw it earlier. Why?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "It will soon be big¡­"

    The Lovely Empress had put her hands on her mouth to gasp softly and there was a yful look in her lovely golden eyes, "It looks like a juicy sausage. One bite and the juices will alle out?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I think I am the one that is being awkward by your innocence instead¡­

    The Lovely Empress was giggling softly as she scrunched and shed her white teeth, "Ji Yuan, let me bite it. I want to leave a mark below so that you will forever remember me¡­"

    With that she had really bended over to bite Ji Yuan''s little brother.

    What was more, she had put her hand on Ji Yuan''s chest and to suppress him with her profound strength.

    In Ji Yuan''s position, he was now at a vulnerable position and his profound animus was actually weaker than the Lovely Empress. Therefore he was unable to move from his position!

    Ji Yuan was so startled that he was suddenly shouting loudly, "No! No, no! I don''t want to y with you anymore! No! No!"

    Just as the Lovely Empress was about to leave her mark on Ji Yuan''s little brother, they were startled by three powerful animus that had suddenly barged into Ji Yuan''s bed chamber.

    Looking up, they were surprised to see the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and the short old man the White Sword Monarch in the bed chamber.

    Ling Feiyue and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both gasping, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?"

    The short old man raised his fist furiously, "When have you be such a lecherous cultivator?"

    Ji Yuan had a ray of hope in his shimmering golden eyes when he saw them as he said panicky to them, "Thank goodness. I am so d to see the three of you here¡­"

    Behind the Smiling Divine Maiden, Ling Feiyue and the short old man was the same subus female guard who was stammering, "I''ve tried to stop them but¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It is alright. Luckily you have let them in at the right time."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Ling Feiyue, the short old man: ???

    The Lovely Empress had turned away her flustered countenance before saying shyly, "Ji Yuan has been poisoned by a powerful immortal cultivator. The only way to save him is to severe his thing¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Author Note:

    1. This is Ji Yuan''s most perilous battle in this chapter!

 Chapter 616 Bai Qianfeng Exits Seclusion

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially now; it was because he was now united with Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden and his old master.

    Together with Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong, the six of them had ventured into the Demonic Divine Realm to find their lucky urrences and heritances.

    Except for Bai Qianfeng who was not here, the five of them began to recount their experiences in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    All of them had their lucky urrences except for Zhi Jiugong.

    However Zhi Jiugong did not mind at all and she merely smiled; sometimes the courage to enter a dangerous trial was enough to build a solid cultivation base and that was enough for her.

    Ji Yuan had also asked why they (the Smiling Divine Maiden, Ling Feiyue and his old master) had finished the Sword Trial so quickly.

    It turned out that it was not because they were fast but it was actually the Lovely Empress that was slow in deciding whether to believe in the demonic cultivators that were looking for her; she had actually taken several days to decide.

    It was really too difficult to trick the Lovely Empress and she was too suspicious.

    When everyone had recounted their experiences and know that Bai Qianfeng was the supreme leader of this new faction, Ji Yuan then showed them his immortal scabbard with a grin.

    Everyone except for Zhi Jiugong was stunned when they saw the immortal scabbard.

    Just as everyone was inspecting the immortal scabbard, Ji Yuan had grinned again and he had taken out his two emperor-step divine sword.

    "I can even wield both of them too. Haha... this is all thanks to my immortal scabbard."

    The short old man which was also Ji Yuan''s old master waspletely stunned when he saw the two emperor-step divine swords.

    Even Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress could not believe what they were seeing!

    "This is?" The short old man gasped with great shock. "With this immortal scabbard and your two emperor-step divine swords now, you are now be considered as a Great Sword Saint now."

    When the short old man had said this, even the Smiling Divine Maiden was startled. "Ji Yuan is on par with our Sword Divine Realm now?"

    The short old man nodded quietly as he touched the two emperor divine swords¡­

    ? Ling Feiyue asked curiously, "What is this Great Sword Saint level?"

    The short old man exined, "It is actually a state of divinity that is above the Sword Saint Divinity. We call this the Great Sword Saint Divinity or the Great Sword Saint Divine Realm. In this state of divinity, Ji Yuan is capable of the unison between sword and profound energy as one."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden sighed softly, "His sword profound art isn''t weaker than any power or defense cultivator now. But he has to cultivate his profound animus first; it is still too weak. He is only a Great Sword Saint because of his immortal scabbard and the two emperor-step divine swords."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "This doesn''t sound like a praise to me¡­"

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "And I have suppressed a great sword saint in his bed earlier."

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    The short old man sighed softly but he was soon grinning, "Perhaps, Ji Yuan had the chance to reach the Sword Immortal Divinity Realm and be a Sword Immortal in the future."

    When he had said that, everyone including Ji Yuan was startled. "There is a Sword Immortal Divinity Realm?"

    The short old man nodded, "That is the great dao that I''ve been pursuing for many years. However I can only be considered as a half-step Sword Immortal. This state of divinity is simply too hard."

    Then he looked up with an even long sigh, "Above the Sword Immortal Divinity Realm, there is still the legendary Sword Deity Divinity Realm. We will probably need to be an immortal to even understand this legendary lofty state of divinity."

    Ji Yuan was gasping, "Sword Deity Ji Yuan¡­ this will sound really impressive¡­"<novelnext></novelnext>

    All of a sudden the short old man had hit Ji Yuan on his head, "Stop dreaming!"

    All of a sudden everyone could feel a startling presence that had appeared at the entrance of the great hall and she was Bai Qianfeng.

    Her profound aura was startling and she was exerting a great pressure in front of everyone with her presence.

    The short old man could not believe this was the same Maiden Bai Qianfeng that he had known.

    JI Yuan had to exin quickly, "Actually Qianfeng, she is an immortal cultivator. Haha¡­ why do you think that all these demonic cultivators will submit to her?"

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling as she walked in and behind her were Miya, Misa and the Subus Queen Minami.

    The short old man stared at Ji Yuan, "Is she really an immortal?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "And she is a really strong immortal cultivator too."

    "And she submits to a weakling like you?" The short old man stared at Ji Yuan with disbelief.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled at everyone as she entered the great hall, "Wonderful. You are all here now. Finally we can leave together as a group. But before we do that, there is something that I need to do in this divine realm first."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Qianfeng, you have been away for seclusion for so long. And you are still trying to do something first? Maybe it is time for us to leave this divine realm first?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Not yet. This Demonic Divine Realm is divided into the Outer and the Inner Demonic Worlds. We are only upying a small part of the Outer Demonic World. There are still many powerful demonic cultivators that still see us as a threat."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I don''t think they even dare to attack us."

    This was the truth; the Subus Queen Minami had actually told him that most of the neighboring demonic ns would rather sign a peace treaty than to fight them after learning that so many top tier demonic cultivators had died while fighting the Abyssal Null Goddess and Sword Demon Ji Yuan.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "My lord, do you think that I''ve been in seclusion for only my own sake? It is for you!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he blinked his golden eyes, "For me? What do you mean?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled mysteriously, "Have you forgotten that I am really good in the immortal arrays?"

    Ji Yuan said curiously, "No, I haven''t but I don''t need any immortal array, right?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she said alluringly, "I have collected over 1000 divine and daemon weapons from all the dead demonic cultivators here and have made an immortal array for you. This immortal array will be used to absorb all the divine and daemon weapons to upgrade your two emperor-step swords¡­"

    When everyone had heard her, they were greatly startled.

    JI Yuan was the most startled, "My emperor-step divine swords can still be upgraded?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "That is secondary. With my immortal strength, I am going to raise your attainment and made you into a Sword Immortal."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped and so did everyone; it was because they were all discussing on hard it was to be a Sword Immortal earlier¡­

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Bai Qianfeng has finally exited seclusion!

 Chapter 617 How To Become A Sword Immortal? (1)

    Bai Qianfeng had taken Ji Yuan and the rest of the group to her seclusion chamber.

    This group consisted of just Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man; the Subus Queen Minami, Miya and Misa were not included in their group and were guarding outside.

    As soon as they had entered the seclusion chamber, they seemed to have entered a dark spatial space and were startled to see more than a thousand swords encircling around a dark spatial space.

    The short old man was gasping breathlessly when he saw the sight of more than a 1000 divine swords in this ce, "Amazing, amazing."

    Even the Smiling Divine Maiden was gasping at the wonderous sight of so many divine swords in this ce.

    But she was soonmenting softly, "All these divine swords have no masters, Just how many cultivators did Sister Qianfeng kill in order to create such a startling immortal array?"

    Ji Yuan gasped when they saw the sight of so many divine swords here but there was a tingling familiarity here. "This formation looks a little too familiar?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Naturally it is. In the cave outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth where you had given me my celestial sword and in Bliss City, you had already seen it. This is the Swords Absorbing Immortal Array where a single divine sword can grow just by absorbing the artefact cores of the other swords here."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "You know. My divine swords are already an emperor-step divine sword. It will take them thousands of years to be a deity-step divine sword or even a true immortal sword. Haha. I can''t wait that long."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled curly, "This Immortal Sword Array is customed for my lord here."

    JI Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng exined with a smile, "You know that my purpose is not to upgrade your divine sword. When I saw that you have an immortal scabbard, this gave me an idea to imnt this Immortal Sword Array into your immortal scabbard and to raise your cultivation attainment to that of a Sword Immortal Divinity¡­"

    The short old man could not help muttering softly, "You know. I am a half-step Sword Immortal. I am way better than Ji Yuan. He is just a lowly sword saint that barely makes it into the divinity of the Great Sword Saint level."

    Although he was whispering to himself but it was actually quite loud in the ears of these super cultivators.

    But even Ji Yuan was actually doubting himself, "I really don''t know if I can be a Sword Immortal. I am like 10 000 years too early for this."

    In the past, he had never even dared to dream of any divinity above the Great Sword Saint level because there were just too many geniuses with the swords and they all had their powerful profound arts to back them up.

    Even though Ling Feiyue was not a Sword Saintess but her Flying Spirit Sword Art coupled with her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force could easily put her on par with Ji Yuan by providing both offense and defense.

    At the same time, her Six Realms Divine Art could also provide her with a stronger profound strength than Ji Yuan to empower her Flying Spirit Sword Art and her Unrighteous Moon Profound Force.

    When all three profound arts were used together, Ling Feiyue could easy fight off a Sword Saint like Ji Yuan.

    And Ji Yuan was not the only one that was constantly finding lucky inheritances; Ling Feiyue had also found a sword spirit and had even formed her golden core with the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

    Most of the time Ling Feiyue was only ying the part of a vulnerable maiden when she was with Ji Yuan but she was not weaker than Ji Yuan.

    If she was given a saint-step divine sword, her profound power would also increase tremendously like Ji Yuan.

    The truth was that Ling Feiyue was a young genius and she was capable of attaining a high level of cultivation in her profound arts.

    When Ji Yuan had raised this question to Bai Qianfeng, she merely smiled and said nonchntly. "There are only 5 Sword Immortals among the Deste Immortals and they are all lofty immortals and are stronger than most of the deste immortals. Even I may not be their match in a battle."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "My Qianfeng isn''t their match? How is it possible? Are their immortal cultivation higher than you?"

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head, "Two of them are actually 8th realm Sword Immortals. So how can you say I am stronger than them?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "My Qianfeng isn''t a match for a 8th realm Sword Immortal? But you can easily kill a 9th realm immortal¡­ this is so hard to believe¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "This is not surprising at all. Their one strike is extremely powerful. Even for me, I can''t say that I will be able to tank it myself. You can ask your old master about his secret trump card."<novelnext></novelnext>

    "What trump card?" Ji Yuan frowned. "My old man says we can''t share our trump card even if we are master and prot¨¦g¨¦."

    The short old manughed weakly before he said solemnly, "My Yang Thunder Sword is a sword art that I was inspired to create at the peak of my Great Saint level. And with this sword art, I am able to step into the half-step Sword Immortal Divinity."

    Then he turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Therefore if you have mastered my Yang Invincible Profound Arts to its pinnacle, one day you would also be able to visualize the Yang Thunder Sword."

    JI Yuan frowned, "I didn''t see you using this Yang Thunder Sword."

    The short old man weakly said, "That is because I didn''t have the chance to duel with the Death God Mingwang yet! And also¡­"

    He began to sigh softly, "Although this Yang Thunder Sword is extremely powerful and can create a chasm across the heavens but it can only be used once."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Then what is the use?"

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    The short old man: ¡­

    The old man frowned, "Do you know my Yang Thunder Sword is not a cultivation profound art? It is actually a state of divinity that allows a sword cultivator to exceed beyond their cultivation realm and this is what we call a Sword Domain¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue nodded as she interrupted wryly, "When you disy this Sword Domain, you are also able to suppress your opponents with your sword intentions. Although I can be considered a Great Sword Saintess but I am unable to visualize a new state of divinity in the Sword Immortal Divinity Realm yet. Maybe I need to work on my sword spirit abit more..."

    Then she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Your grand cross sword art isn''t a sword art from your cultivation slip. You have attained it when you are trying to defeat your opponents. That is why you are able to cross the boundary to be a Great Sword Saint. But in order to be a true Sword Immortal, you must be able to create a new sword art that is capable of destroying the heavens and the earth with a single disy of your sword domain. Do you get me?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and he had an awkward look, "You are asking the weakest profound strength cultivator in this group to create a new sword art that can destroy the heavens and the earth?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled at Ji Yuan, "My lord. I have full faith in you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "That is because you are my Qianfeng and have full faith in me naturally. But I wonder where the source of faith reallyes from? Do I really have that quality to be a Sword Immortal?"

    He had asked a frank question that was in the minds of everyone but because none of them had wished to demoralize him, they had kept quiet about it.

    Even the Lovely Empress was awfully quiet as she looked at Ji Yuan with a small shimmer of hope. Usually she would tease Ji Yuan but not at this time; she really wanted Ji Yuan to be a Sword Immortal.

    So were Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Ling Feiyue as well...

    Bai Qianfeng smiled at Ji Yuan with a hopeful look as she answered him, "That is because my lord has the Undying Fighting Spirit. You will surely seed."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is not funny¡­

    1. Next chapter will be more exciting!

 Chapter 618 How To Become A Sword Immortal? (2)

    Bai Qianfeng was now saying to Ji Yuan as she pointed at the 1000 over divine swords, "In order to step into the lofty realm of a Sword Immortal and be above all the other cultivators, you must have already stepped on the bodies of countless geniuses in order to reach the pinnacle. These are their swords..."

    "Erm, actually I don''t remember stepping on so many bodies in order to gather so many divine swords in this ce." Interrupted Ji Yuan with a weak chuckle.

    "It is alright. I have brought all their divine swords to you so it is still the same thing." Smiled Bai Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the short old man: ...

    They were all thinking: This is a little toome...

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly to Ji Yuan, "Right now, you are the center of this Immortal Sword Array so you must position yourself in the center."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Alright then. I will go to the center and see what I can do."

    All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng was holding onto Ji Yuan''s hand as she said mncholy, "My lord. You have to be absolute serious in this..."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng continued with great mncholy, "This is the only thing that I can do for you here in order to defeat the Great Demon God and the Deste Dragon God. This Immortal Sword Array is created with my 9th cultivation realm profound art and I can only use it here. When I am back to the Celestial Realm, I will not be able to use my 8th or 9th cultivation profound arts anymore. And also, all these divine swords will also be consumed for you to reach your sword awakening. Whether you are able to create your own Sword Domain and be a Sword Immortal depends on your willpower and strength."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded and he was secretly touched by what Bai Qianfeng had done for him; she did all these for him and she had even gone on a secret seclusion just to create this Immortal Sword Array for him. The profound resources that Bai Qianfeng was willing to use for him was simply too great for him to repay with just mere words...

    At this moment, the Smiling Divine Maiden was also gently holding onto Ji Yuan''s hands as she said quietly. "Ji Yuan. Don''t forget that the key to understand your sword intentions lie in your sword spirit and you have two sword spirits! Don''t forget about this!"

    Ji Yuan looked at the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was also touched; her presence was always enough to arouse a look of dness in the eyes of the onlookers. And right now, she was holding his hands and encouraging him. Moreover she was also his older prot??g?? sister.

    Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were also surrounding him now and they were looking sentimentally at him.

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Why are you all looking as though I may die? It is just a breakthrough. Haha..."

    The short old man grumbled behind, "Idiot! You even know that this is a breakthrough. If you fail, you may even develop a phenomena deviation, die, be a crippled, wasting your cultivation core, drop in cultivation realm or have multiple afflictions at the same time! So you have better take this seriously or I will lose a good son-inw!"

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "Haha..."

    The Lovely Empress could not resist adding for him with a soft chuckle, "That is how you lose your beard, remember?"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    I have no more beard to lose except the hair on my hair. Trust me, if I were to lose my hair on my head, I would surely look very ugly...

    Finally Ji Yuan had walked to the center of the Immortal Sword Array as everyone watched him.

    Bai Qianfeng quietly said, "You can put your immortal scabbard with your two emperor divine swords in front of you. When you are done, I will be activating the Immortal Sword Array for you. May the Great Beyond Goddess bestows her blessings on you."

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan had suddenly said as he took out his heaven-step divine sword which had been fully restored by now. "The more swords the better!"

    Then he had pierced this heaven-step divine sword in front of him.

    He would have thrown out more divine swords but he had long given all his divine swords that he had looted to the cultivators in the lower mortal realm.

    Bai Qianfeng said slowly, "Your immortal scabbard is able to gather profound energies all around you. Hence this is the reason why you are able to wield two emperor-step divine swords. I know this is a bit hasty to ask you to envision how to use create a Sword Domain with your immortal scabbard but I believe in my lord."

    Ling Feiyue said quietly and her golden eyes were woefully, "Remember this my lord. Your Jiajia is still waiting outside for you!"

    Ji Yuan inhaled slowly as he looked at the five maidens slowly before he started to close his eyes; in his heart, he could only say thank you to all of them.<novelnext></novelnext>

    "I am ready!"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she started to disy her profound strength to activate this Immortal Sword Array.

    Almost immediately, hundreds of divine swords were all moving at the same time; it started off with the weaker divine swords before the stronger divine swords were also starting to tremble all around Ji Yuan.

    Many of the divine swords were also resonating loudly as many of them were now resisting Ji Yuan''s call for them to be in unison with him.

    Although Ji Yuan''s eyes were closed but he could see all the divine swords clearly in his mind. Even the light of their artefact cores was also shining brightly inside his mind.

    All the hundreds of divine and daemon swords were all shaking violently to resist Ji Yuan''s call; it was because Ji Yuan was never their master in the first ce!

    In these divine swords'' lifetime, they were their masters'' beloved and every one of these divine swords had their own lofty pride!

    It was just like Ji Yuan had been using the same divine sword for a hundred years now and this divine sword was his one and only because it was given to him by his Jiajia as an engagement token!

    There was no way for these divine swords to submit so willingly unless their previous masters were wanton with them.

    The few divine swords that had submitted were exactly those because they were unloved or their previous masters had too many divine swords.

    Ji Yuan''s fore arms had two sword spirits now; it was because Ji Yuan needed his sword spirits to act as a conduit for him to ry his sword intentions as he disyed his life time battles in front of these hundreds of divine swords.

    The sword intentions of these divine swords began to chorus immediately.

    "Too young!"

    "Your sword spirits are too weak!"

    "Not fierce enough!"

    "Not enough killing malevolent!"

    "There are not enough wins in his battles..."

    "He seems to lose quite a few of his battles too..."

    "He is a loser..."

    "I am not following a loser..."

    "He needs a divine sword to win his battles for him and now he is begging us to join him to increase his attainment so that he can create a Sword Domain. Fat hope!"

    "It is not him that defeat our former masters!"

    "Submit to him? Never!"

    Ji Yuan was frowning now as he said to these divine swords, "Did I really lose a lot of battles? Are you looking down on me?"

    As he frowned, he had a small constion; at least he got a high level divine sword that had submitted to him and it was a heaven-step divine sword that he had just thrown into the ground.

    ---------------

    Author Note:

    1. Next Chapter: Can Ji Yuan create his own Sword Domain?

 Chapter 619 How To Become A Sword Immortal? (3)

    JI Yuan was actually not angry when he had heard the voices of these divine swords.

    Rather, he was d as he startled tough aloud at these insults.

    When he had faced these divine swords, he felt a little awkward and he actually did not know how to convince them over to his side.

    But when these divine swords were mocking him, Ji Yuan had remembered the days when he was an arrogant young master and he was trading daily insults with the other young masters.

    Rather than demoralizing JI Yuan, he was grinning in his mind and this aroused his fighting spirit!

    On the outside, none of his group could see his expressions as Ji Yuan was having an exchange with the thousand over divine swords via his sword intentions; on the surface, Ji Yuan was actually meditating serenely.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he disyed his two emperor-step divine swords in front of him, "These two are my divine swords. Are you superior or inferior to them?"

    Half of the divine swords became silent.

    Ji Yuanughed as he disyed his two sword spirits, "Have you ever have a master with two sword spirits?"

    Many of the divine swords were silence¡­

    "Know why I have two sword spirits?"

    Then he pointed at the beautiful sword spirit on his left forearm with a long sigh, "I didn''t want to say this. This sword spirit on my left is something that I''ve cherished a lot. It is something that I am unwilling to mention even to Xiang Li. It''s not as if she can remember this sword spirit¡­"

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan continued, "I have almost never used this sword spirit with Xiang Li unless I am really desperate to win my battle. Doing so will only make this sword spirit even more powerful because she wants to protect Xiang Li¡­"

    Xiang Li asked: Isn''t this just a sword spirit that can increase speed?

    Ji Yuan continued as he said to the hundreds of divine swords, "This sword spirit used to be Xiang Li''s old mistress. When she had learnt that Xiang Li is now my spirit entity, she is willing to be my sword spirit so that she can be with Xiang Li forever."

    Xiang Li was startled: I have a former mistress?!

    Anyang was startled: Our lord has never told us about this...

    Ji Yuan said mncholy, "She told me that in the past Xiang Li had served her and had even helped her to fulfill her wish but now, her only wish now is to serve Xiang Li and I should protect her forever."

    Then he said, "With such a conviction, do you think that my sword will be inferior to your former masters?"

    "And moreover I have two sword spirits that have sessful merged together. What is the possibility of your master having the courage to try to merge two sword spirits into their cultivation core? Most will probably die because of this experience."

    A great number of divine swords had stopped wavering and were listening¡­

    Ji Yuan called out, "Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, please show yourself up!"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang had suddenly appeared in their spirt forms and they were so beautiful in spirit that many of the divine swords had stopped moving to admire them¡­

    He said, "They are the souls of my two emperor-step divine swords. If you are all willing to serve them, then they would be your mistresses in the future."

    Xiang Li giggled as she winked at the hundreds of divine swords, "Together, we can be stronger together!"

    Anyang wasughing softly too, "Are we inferior to your former masters?"

    Many of the hundreds of divine swords hadpletely stopped moving now, tamed by Xiang Li and Anyang into submitting to their wills.

    "If you look at my sword spirits then you will also know that I have also mastered the sword of destruction and is able to use my life force energies as a weapon. I am young and have plenty of vital life energies. My grand cross is a miracle sword art and I want to use disy my life force energies into it to create a sword art that can destroy the heavens and the earth. I can do it. But I need your help to create a Sword Domain."

    Many of the divine swords were asking, "What sort of a Sword Domain are you thinking of creating?"

    Ji Yuan inhaled slowly before saying, "I want to create a Life and Death Sword Domain to contain my own life force energies so that I won''t die from using my grand cross as a life force energies profound art."

    Many of the divine swords were saying, "Since you have already ovee the Dark Malevolent Domain in the past, you can surely create such a sword art eventually. But do you really need to create a Sword Domain for this? With the power of your immortal scabbard, sooner orter you will be able to disy your life force grand cross sword art."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "It is still not earth shaking enough without a Sword Domain. I want to leave my sword mark in the heavens and the earth. Also, this is not the only Sword Domain that I want to create."

    The hundreds of divine swords: ???

    Ji Yuan said slowly, "If I only manage to create one sword art and one Sword Domain then I can only be a half-step Sword Immortal. And I can''t use all of you, right?"

    Then he grinned, "Don''t you want me to use all of you, so that we won''t ever be green by anyone again? No longer will you need to change your master ever again and I would be your one and only master. All of you will be my pioneer swords!"<novelnext></novelnext>

    The hundreds of divine swords were resonating as they echoed: How? How?!

    Ji Yuan said, "My Thousand Sacred Swords is able to create swords out of my profound energies. Although it is still a powerful sword art but I still have to consume my profound energies to create a sword. What if I am able to gather all of you to be my swords? So I am able to create a Million Swords Field using all of you. To use all swords under the heavens as my own and I will name this sword art the Harker of the Million Swords to gather all my swords into a single impale."

    The hundreds of divine swords seemed stunned; was this even possible in the first ce?

    Ji Yuan tapped on his immortal scabbard and said, "This is my immortal scabbard. It is able to contain an infinity amount of profound sword energies. If you are willing to discard your physical body to follow me then I can promise you that not only can this be done but I can also help to evolve you in the future."

    He then disyed his sword intentions to show the hundreds of divine swords how he could create such a sword art.

    He emphasized, "Then we shall never be green again."

    When he had said that, the hundreds of divine swords resonated loudly as they agreed with Ji Yuan!

    With two Sword Domains, Ji Yuan was fully a Sword Immortal now and not merely a half-step!

    All the divine swords in the vicinity hadpletely submitted to Ji Yuan now!

    "Wait a minute." Ji Yuan said to the hundreds of divine swords. "We still need to create one more sword art."

    The hundreds of divine swords exchanged wondrous and bewilderment; their new master was still able to create one more sword art?

    Ji Yuan pointed at his sword scabbard as heughed, "I need to make a box for my immortal scabbard or else it would be too obvious. I can hide my profound animus but I can''t hide the immortal animus of my scabbard. I need 9 divine swords from the hundreds of divine swords here. The stronger the better. And I will name them Sword Number 1 to 9."

    The hundreds of divine swords asked, "You need a Sword Domain for this?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Yun Chi have her 24 immortal swords and I will have my 9 flying swords to counter her. Haha¡­"

    Then he grinned, "I shall call this my Flying Swords Domain."

    The hundreds of divine swords asked Ji Yuan when they understood his sword intentions, "Do you need such a weak Sword Domain?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Weak has its advantage too. The first two Sword Domains will exhaust me but this weak Sword Domain won''t. Moreover I can use this to hide my true trump cards from the others."

    Then he began to say solemnly without borating, "I can also use this wooden box to train my sword energy fingers."

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Big Brother, you have 10 fingers. So if you are training your sword energy fingers, don''t you need 10 fingers?"

    JI Yuanughed awkwardly, "I may need 1 extra finger to scratch my backside¡­ I mean when I rubbing myself, you don''t want to cut yourself right? Never overdo something or it will surely backfire. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    The hundreds of divine swords trembled as they said to Ji Yuan, "Creating 1 Sword Doman is hard enough. Creating 3 sessive Sword Domains will increase the chances of failure. Do you really want to do it?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Even if I were half-dead from creating 3 Sword Domains, I will still do it. It is because I don''t want to be green. Do you want to be green by the others?"

    All the hundreds of divine swords answered resoundingly, "We don''t want to be green by anyone else!"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he started to raise his fingers physically to say to the hundreds of divine swords, "Very good! Then Xiang Li and Anyang will be your new mistresses in the future and you must protect them well so others will not be able to green you in the future. Now we shall begin finally!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly to Ji Yuan: My lord, are you sure? They are expecting you to create one Sword Domain to fight the Great Demon God but you are erm... creating 3 Sword Domains?

    Ji Yuan said to Anyang: Creating 1 Sword Domain has the chance to die. Creating 3 Sword Domain also has the chance to die. We may as well go for as many as possible.

    Xiang Li giggled: I totally agree with Big Brother.

    Anyang protested weakly: The chances of failure are different...

    2. This is pretty long chapter.

 Chapter 620 How To Become A Sword Immortal? (4)

    All of a sudden all the onlookers saw that Ji Yuan had started to move his fingers now and all the hundreds of divine swords were all shaking on the ground now.

    Bai Qianfeng was startled, "He is ready to go to the next stage so soon?"

    The short old man sighed, "Most of these divine swords are actually demonic in nature. It is very difficult to purge their old sword intentions. Even for me, I can''t do it."

    Ling Feiyue pondered for a while before she said, "Knowing Ji Yuan, he has probably asked Xiang Li to wipe away the auras from these divine swords and to make them submit to him. But this will also destroy much of the divine sword''s attainment and it will affect his chances of creating a Sword Domain."

    The short old man was startled, "You mean that beautiful spirit entity that this little rascal got, actually has such an ability? Is it even possible in the first ce? Isn''t she just a soul entity of his divine sword?"

    He had heard Ji Yuan mentioning it to him before.

    This was actually half the truth; Ji Yuan had transferred her to his divine swords because he needed to wield his sword spirit and also to preserve Xiang Li''s life in case he was killed.

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Actually he has two such spirit entities¡­"

    She was actually referring to Anyang.

    Ji Yuan actually rarely showed anyone his Xiang Li or Anyang but all of Ji Yuan''s maidens would know about them somehow.

    Or rather once Xiang Li acknowledged anyone that was Ji Yuan''s new consorts, she would appear to greet them and to befriend them.

    Xiang Li had made an appearance to greet the Lovely Empress and Chu Lixue back inside the arena trial while the White Sword Monarch was presented also. At that time she did not know that she was being watched by everyone in the arena.

    As for Anyang, she was more shy and rarely appeared.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded slowly next to Ling Feiyue as she sighed softly, "The attainment of the divine sword is crucial to create a powerful Sword Domain. The higher it is, the better. If the attainment and memories of the divine sword is wiped out, it is almost useless to be used for creating a Sword Domain¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong said quietly and her countenance was anxious, "I''m more worried that Ji Yuan may absorb too much of the evil malevolent of these swords and may be a Sword Demon instead."

    The Lovely Empress looked at the hundreds of shaking divine swords and wondered aloud, "Maybe he is trying to create the Yang Thunder Sword? After all, he is versed in the Yang Invincible Profound Arts."

    The short old manughed jovially, "My future son-inw is indeed wise."

    But he was soon sighing softly, "But it is really quite impossible. First, he has to master my Yang Invincible Profound Arts first. He is 10 000 years too early now. I am such ax old master. I should have made him into a more hardworking cultivator."

    Ling Feiyue muttered incoherent, "Half of Ji Yuan''s bad habits like tomb raiding actuallyes from you¡­"

    Luckily Ling Feiyue''s voice usual voice was really soft and when she was whispering, it was really soft.

    However Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden could actually hear her and they were flushing slightly; it was because Ji Yuan actually had quite a few typical habits of a young master like bragging, big mouth and he likes his awkward face.

    But they were soon watching Ji Yuan as the hundreds of divine swords began to tremble and many were lifting itself from the ground.

    This was not a quick process and ten hourster, Ji Yuan had finally disyed a loud shout and his profound shout exploded around the Immortal Sword Array.

    Although it may looked like a short period of time as Ji Yuanmunicated his sword intentions to the hundreds of divine swords but showing them his life experiences and convincing them actually took him 10 hours.

    Everyone could suddenly see that the scabbards of many of the divine swords were suddenly dissembling and were all flying onto Ji Yuan''s immortal scabbard!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled, "The divine swords didn''t fly to Ji Yuan but the scabbards did?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Even the short old man was startled and he was perplexed, "What the heck is he doing? Is he creating a useless scabbard sword art?"

    The Lovely Empress weaklymented, "Maybe the divine swords have rejected him but the scabbards happen to be free of charge so he didn''t want to waste this opportunity¡­"

    Everyone: ¡­

    All of a sudden all the scabbards around Ji Yuan''s immortal scabbard was dissembling into small pieces and they were forming into a big wooden box!

    Zhi Jiugong who was anxious for Ji Yuan asked the short old man, "What is Ji Yuan doing?"

    The short old man smiled bitterly, "This is too bizarre even for me. Maybe he is trying to make a wooden coffin for himself."

    Zhi Jiugong and everyone else: ¡­

    All of a sudden nine of the most powerful divine swords in the Immortal Sword Array were suddenly flying into the open box!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was the first to gasp with shock, "Ji Yuan has managed to tame 9 of the most powerful divine swords here?!"

    Even the short old man was startled, "Why only 9 swords? This is still not enough to create a powerful Sword Domain¡­"

    "Maybe Ji Yuan can''t count more than 10 fingers." The Lovely Empress muttered weakly.

    All of a sudden, hundreds of divine swords were uprooting themselves and they were all breaking apart into heavenly relics as the sword energies of their artefact core were pouring into Ji Yuan.

    This time the short old man was shouting jovially, "This little rascal is now forming his Sword Domain! The rest of you should watch carefully. This may be helpful for your cultivation in the future."

    Ling Feiyue and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both watching in earnest and they were gasping at this superior state of divinity.

    Actually Ling Feiyue was an unofficial sword saintess; it was because she had be a sword saintess in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and this was her trial reward. However as she did not ovee the life and death experience to be a real sword saintess, she did not feelfortable to proim herself as a sword saintess.

    All of a sudden everyone could feel an inertia barrier that was radiating from Ji Yuan and they could hardly move from their current positions.

    The short old manughed jovially, "He has finally seeded! No matter if this is a weak or strong Sword Domain, he is now a half-step Sword Immortal now. Even for half-step Sword Immortal, there are the 3, 6, 9 grades. You can say that Ji Yuan is the lowest at the 9th grade while I am at the 3rd grade¡­"

    "Or the opposite." The Lovely Empress had interrupted him before she quickly hid behind her Sister Chi Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden; this old man was too fierce!

    All of a sudden the profound animus of the hundreds of divine swords became even fiercer and there was no sight of stopping as they whirled around Ji Yuan in a rotating circle, going faster and faster.

    A more powerful profound animus was suddenly formed around Ji Yuan again and this time the profound animus was pushing everyone back!

    The short old man was startled, "This little rascal is creating a second Sword Domain?!"

    When they had heard him, they were all startled.

    -------------------

    1. First Sword Domain!

 Chapter 621 How To Become A Sword Immortal? (5)

    When the short old man which was also the White Sword Monarch had gasped that Ji Yuan was creating his second Sword Domain, everyone was startled.

    "Second Sword Domain? From the same Immortal Sword Array?"

    Even an immortal like Bai Qianfeng was asking, "Is this even possible?"

    The short old man smiled bitterly at Bai Qianfeng, "Well, did you tell him that this is impossible by the way?"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered weakly, "Isn''t thismon sense?"

    Ling Feiyue muttered weakly, "Ji Yuan doesn''t have themon sense because he doesn''t even follow the normal norm¡­"

    The short old man said solemnly, "A Sword Domain requires the cultivator to focus all their willpower into the boundary of the Sword Domain. After creating one Sword Domain, the cultivator''s mental strength will bepletely drained. I remember that I have to sleep for 7 days and 7 nights after I have first created by Yang Thunder Sword¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said quietly as she interrupted her father, "This second Sword Domain looks several times stronger than the first one. Maybe Ji Yuan did not use up all his mental energies. After all the first Sword Domain is just a wooden box."

    "I still don''t know why Ji Yuan wants to create a wooden box for?" The Lovely Empress muttered weakly.

    Bai Qianfeng said quietly, "Did you notice that we can no longer sense his immortal scabbard now?"

    Everyone was suddenly realizing the same too and was gasping¡­

    Bai Qianfeng said, "And there are 9 divine swords that did not lose their heavenly relic in the wooden box too. Therefore he ns to use that 9 flying swords and his immortal scabbard at the same time."

    The short old man frowned, "So he ns to control his 9 divine swords with his sword energy fingers and one more finger to control his immortal scabbard¡­"

    But he quickly said with a look of pride, "Let''s hope that this second Sword Domain is stronger than mine, Sword Immortal Ji Yuan."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was also smiling as she turned to look at her father, "He is already stronger than you now, my old man. With two Sword Domains, he is now a full-step Sword Immortal."

    The short man frowned, "He is just partitioning his mental energies into two by creating one weaker Sword Domain and one stronger Sword Domain so that he can prove that he is my grand daddy. He can dream on. My Yang Thunder Sword can turn him into a worthless trash in the next instant."

    The Lovely Empress muttered almost incoherently, "Well, I didn''t see you using it on that Gu Bugu at the very first instant¡­"

    This time the short old man could hear her. Or rather after being repeatedlymented upon by the Lovely Empress, the attention of the short old man was on her. "We are in the arena trial where everyone can see us. This is supposed to be my secret trump card against the Death God Mingwang. If I show it too soon then the Death God will be able to discover the weakness of my trump card. If the little rascal can defeat that Gu Bugu by pretending to be weak, so can I. There is no need to show my ultimate trump card just yet."

    All of a sudden an even more powerful profound animus was surrounding Ji Yuan and all the hundreds of divine swords were resonating and giving off a divine halo!

    Everyone was suddenly startled and they were staring with disbelief¡­

    "Is this the third Sword Domain already?!"

    "Ji Yuan had created the third Sword Domain?!"

    "And he has even divine harmony with all these divine swords?"

    "How did he manage to convince all of these divine swords to be in unison with him?"

    "A clean divine sword cannot divine harmony with anyone¡­"

    The short old man was in total disbelief when he saw that Ji Yuan had created 3 Sword Domains, each one more powerful than the next!

    Even Bai Qianfeng was shocked, "Is he on the way to be a Sword Deity in the future?"

    All of a sudden the inertia profound animus around Ji Yuan hadpletely ceased and he was now slowly opening his golden eyes.

    He had a grin on him as he stood up to put the wooden box on his back before he greeted everyone, "It is a big sess. I am a half-step Sword Immortal now. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng looked at him curiously, "Only a half-step Sword Immortal?"

    "You didn''t faint for 7 days and 7 nights?" The Lovely Empress looked at Ji Yuan and then she looked at the short old man.

    The short old man muttered weakly, "Don''t look at me like this¡­"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Then he asked Ji Yuan, "Little rascal, you don''t feel tired at all?"

    Ji Yuan was perplexed as he asked curiously, "Why should I be tired?"

    The short old man said, "You supposed to be using all your mental willpower to force these divine swords to submit to you and to use them to form your Sword Domain."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Do I need to force them to submit when we all have amon goal?"

    "What goal is that?" The Smiling Divine Maiden asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan began to stammer, "Erm, saving the world together?"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly stepped on Ji Yuan''s foot, "You have mastered 3 Sword Domains right? Why don''t you tell us what it is? Enough of your stupid trump cards."

    JI Yuan stammered weakly, "How the heck do you know that I have 3 Sword Domains?"

    Ling Feiyue put her left hand on her face in shame, "We are watching you¡­"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "You are not supposed to be watching my secret retreat¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng hummed as she kicked Ji Yuan, "Is this even supposed to be a secret retreat in the first ce? I am the one that make this Immortal Sword Array for you. And you are not even telling me about your Sword Domains?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "My old master taught me never to reveal my trump cards¡­"

    The short old man hit Ji Yuan hard on his head and said, "Well, your old master is here now and I''m telling you to reveal all your secret trump cards now. What the heck is this wooden coffin?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he became a little defensive, "It isn''t a wooden coffin but a wooden box. Wait a minute! How do I know that you are indeed my old master instead of my heart demon? Any proof? And moreover my master won''t ask me to do something like this. Therefore you are a fake¡­"

    Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

    Bai Qianfeng had suddenly knocked Ji Yuan to crash thunderously to the end of her secret chamber, "I know that this hard knock would wake you up. Ji Yuan, you have better owned up 100% of your Sword Domains to us by today or this is over for us."

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly as she winked at Ji Yuan who was growling with pain at the other end, "Same here!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he ced his wooden box in front of him, "I will never yield in to any threats!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly as she turned to look at Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the White Sword Monarch. "Do you all agree that this is the most excellent chance for us to beat Ji Yuan seriously for once?"

    "I have really soft blows." The Lovely Empress giggled, "But I don''t know if my Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Sister Qianfeng here also has soft blows?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled alluringly, "My Abyssal Null Eyes don''t really care about any weak or strong blows. If he is lying then it is no mercy from my Abyssal Null Eyes who will not stop until the truth is revealed."

    Ji Yuanughed all of a sudden as he tried to stand up with a manly pride, "I was only joking with all of you! Haha¡­"

    But he was woefully saying to Xiang Li and Anyang: There goes some of my trump cards¡­

    Anyang asked curiously: Some?

    Xiang Li: ???

    Ji Yuan exined with a chuckle: You will know my true trump cards very soon¡­

    Author Note:

    1. No one shall green Ji Yuan and his divine swords!

 Chapter 622 Battle For The Demonic Outer World (1)

    Several days had passed since Ji Yuan had formed his 3 Sword Domains.

    And Ji Yuan was forced to show everyone his Sword Domains.

    When the short old man saw Ji Yuan''s Sword Domains, he sighed heavily but he was also proud of Ji Yuan. "You have really exceeded me now. Sword Immortal Ji Yuan!"

    After Ji Yuan had formed his Sword Domains, Bai Qianfeng had said to the group. "Good. Now we can all go to battle. So let''s go now."

    -

    -

    -

    Tens of thousands of enemy demonic cultivators from all over the Demonic Outer World had gathered to challenge the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    There were only a couple of hundreds of demonic cultivators from the Demonic Inner World as most of that world was untamed and too dangerous for even the demonic cultivators to dwell in that ce.

    All in all, these demonic cultivators were so numerous that at least 1 million of them had gathered to fight this divine cmity that took ce every 500 years.

    They were upset that a small part of their demonic domain had been captured by the Great Celestials from the Celestial Realm.

    Although it was only a small part but several powerful major demonic ns had already been defeated and had surrendered to the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    This same Abyssal Null Goddess was now iming herself as the supreme leader of the entire Demonic Outer World!

    "This Abyssal Null Goddess was not a celestial from the Divine Realm but it is said that she is from our Deste Divine Realm¡­"

    "I have heard that she is an immortal¡­"

    "Immortals can''t stay in our divine realm for long unless they are wealthy immortals¡­"

    "Why is there so little information about this Abyssal Null Goddess?"

    "Because they have all surrendered¡­"

    "Over 2000 top demonic cultivators have perished and the rest have also surrendered¡­"

    "Why are these demonic cultivators so spineless and acting like dogs that readily surrender to a higher power so quickly?"

    "We are 1 million strong and we hailed from all over the Demonic Outer World to destroy this evil cmity from another world!"

    "So far, we have been winning so we have nothing to fear from them."

    "Maybe the Abyssal Null Goddess is wounded after herst battle. This is our chance to defeat her."

    Thousands of demonic ns were now forming a battle line against the demonic ns of the Abyssal Null Goddess that numbered several dozen demonic ns and the demonic cultivators on her side just numbered ten thousand.

    1 million vs. 10 000.

    This disparity is 1: 100!

    Right now, Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess was sitting serenely on a golden throne that was specially made for herfort.

    Next to her was the Subus Queen Minami, Miya, Misa and other leaders of the demonic ns.

    Naturally Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, the White Sword Monarch, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were all presented as well.

    For the past several weeks, Bai Qianfeng had been drawing all the demonic ns into this final battle by feigning weakness.

    This was actually the very first time that her enemies had the chance to see her in person and they were startled to see an extremely beautiful maiden with a long silver hair, adorned with many precious profound stones as her essories were seated in a throne as she faced them serenely.

    She was extremely breathtaking especially when she had unveiled herself today.

    When the demonic cultivators saw her, half of the them were actually secretly trembling rather than in awe of her unearthly beauty; it was because they had never seen any cultivator that could suppress the entire vicinity with merely her profound animus alone.

    And also they had sensed the powerful profound animus of a middle 9th cultivation realm immortal that was looking so fearless in their presence, they were the ones that now having a second thoughts abouting here.

    "How did the top 2000 demonic cultivators die again?"

    "She got the true immortal weapon?"

    "I have heard that even the number one demonic cultivator the Draconian Master Darth Ya had also died¡­"

    "I heard that he was actually killed by Sword Demon Ji Yuan instead¡­"

    "Who is this Sword Demon Ji Yuan? Is he also an immortal?"

    When Bai Qianfeng saw that it was almost time, she began to smile and her divine voice sung from all over the mountains, "Good. I''ve all of you here now. What a great show of so many cultivators here. You aren''t worried that your base may be attacked by the rest of the great celestials that are temporary visiting this divine realm?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Then she smiled, "Do you want to fight me 1 by 1 or all of you wille together? And who are your leaders that are representing you?"

    When she had said that, five peaked old demonic cultivators had stepped forward; these five demonic cultivators were really ancient and they would usually not make any appearance easily as they were in seclusion.

    But this crisis concerned the survival of their entire demonic race and they were forced to end their retreat.

    These five old demonic cultivators were not ranked because they were the acknowledged strongest and uninterested in the messy affairs of the demonic cultivators.

    Although they were peaked cultivators but they were still seventh realm cultivators but they were stronger than any of the seventh realm cultivators.

    An old demonic cultivator that had a shell on his back hissed, "I am Old Venerable Lang Ya. You can say that I am representing the alliance as leader."

    When Old Venerable Lang Ya had stepped forward, many of the demonic cultivators were cheering madly; it was because Old Venerable Lang Ya was their strongest champion.

    The shell that was on his back was not for merely decoration and it could also absorb profound energies. And throughout the years, he had collected numerous profound treasures.

    Old Venerable Lang Ya said slowly, "So it is the Abyssal Null Goddess that I am seeing today. It is a pity that I have to put aside my ascension to the Deste Divine Realm to settle this affair first."

    Many of the demonic cultivators were cheering loudly, "Old Venerable Lang Ya is indeed noble!"

    Old Venerable Lang Ya took a look at his dragon staff which was a saint-step daemon weapon and said, "After I have reached the lofty Great Profane Daemon cultivation realm, I have merely lost only a single battle¡­"

    Many of the demonic cultivators were cheering madly, "Hear! Hear! Old Venerable Lang Ya had only lost a single battle!"

    "I''ve lost that battle to a visiting immortal." Old Venerable Lang Ya began to sigh softly. "Even though he is merely a low level immortal at the early 8th cultivation realm, I''ve lost terribly. Even though I can exceed myself to have profound power above the 8th cultivation realm for a while but against a true immortal, I have no chance. Especially against a lofty 9th cultivation realm immortal such as the Abyssal Null Goddess¡­"

    Many of the demonic cultivators were startled, "What is our Old Venerable Lang Ya saying?"

    Old Venerable Lang Ya had a most bitter smile as he turned to look at the 1 million demonic cultivators that had gathered, "You really think that an immortal will care about numbers? In our divine realm, several peaked seventh cultivation realm cultivators will be able to soundly defeat a stronger peaked seventh realm cultivator like myself. This Abyssal Null Goddess had killed 2000 top cultivators previously. Do you really think that she is being weak by allowing us to trap her in this ce?"

    One of the top 5 leaders, which was another old demonic cultivator called Old Gray Skin Ning Fa smiled, "All of us will surely die if we are to attack her. Do you believe me or not?"

    Another one of the 5 top leaders, was a bald hunchback fey called Old Ming Zai croaked as he held his profound crystal ball. "No matter how many times I have divined our fate, it is impossible for us to defeat this Abyssal Null Goddess."

    All the demonic cultivators were confused now and were muttering, "Our alliance leaders are not fighting?! Then what are we here for?!"

    Another one of the top 5 leaders, was an old Lycan called Da Mo. "The minute we have entered into these mountains, we are already trapped by her immortal profound array. To escape, we have to defeat her but can we defeat a 9th cultivation realm immortal?"

    Thest leader of the 5 top leaders, was a short green face called Lei Tianhe who began tough coldly. "I am sure that we don''t want to know the result of this fight. It will be a massacre."

    Many of the demonic cultivators were startled and were muttering among themselves; they had never seen the profound strength of an immortal before and Bai Qianfeng looked like a weak maiden that they could wantonly abuse.

    It appeared that not all the demonic cultivators were convinced!

    The viewpoints of these so called 5 top leaders were not shared by the thousands of demonic ns presented!

    In fact many of the demonic cultivators especially the sect leaders and elders were extremely angry that they would be defeated even before the fight had started!

    More than a million of the demonic cultivators were now chanting, "We want war! We want to fight!"

    If anyone thought that the 5 top leaders did not want to fight then they were mistakened. In fact, the top 5 leaders were secretly looking and smiling at one another; there was a way to destroy an immortal and that was to wait for the Abyssal Null Goddess to expend all her profound strength.

    They were simply waiting for such an opportunity while waiting for the million demonic cultivators to be their scapegoats!

    The five of them were not only old but extremely wise and experienced in fighting their enemies too!

    And they were hoping that their words would also cause the Abyssal Null Goddess to show them some leniency if she happen to win.

    In the end, they would pretend that they were the unwilling parties in this should they lose the opportunity to kill the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    This was their two-fold battle strategy!

    When Ji Yuan heard the battle cries of these demonic cultivators, he was smiling bitterly as he looked at Bai Qianfeng. "Well, they are in for some surprisester."

    Bai Qianfeng however was smiling, "The more packed that they are, the easier it is for me."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "Well, watch out for your spiritual seas. Killing 1 million of these demonic cultivators are not going to be easy."

    Bai Qianfeng winked at him, "Well, I have a Sword Immortal Ji Yuan that will join meter. Right?"

    Ji Yuan was already patting the wooden box on his back, "Haha¡­"

    Author Note

    1. This is not only a long chapter but a surprise chapter to go directly into the final battle of this arc;)

 Chapter 623 Battle For The Demonic Outer World (2)

    The 1 million demonic cultivators that were led by their respective demonic ns were now chanting their battle cries now as they charged toward their enemies.

    Bai Qianfeng said to her side, "Prepare for battle! And to fight them!"

    The Subus Queen Minami was smiling as she raised her sword to ready for a charge, "10 000 versus 1 million. Sounds fun. We will follow the Abyssal Null Goddess into battle."

    The 10 000 demonic cultivators behind her began to chant their own battle cries.

    The short old man stroked his beard as he looked at his white saintly sword, "I didn''t use my full strength for a long time. Today is the day."

    Ji Yuan murmured to his group, "Everyone, be careful. I shall fight alongside with Qianfeng today..."

    Bai Qianfeng waited for a little while before she shed from her throne to the top of the iing demonic cultivators.

    When the demonic cultivators saw her, they immediately disyed their long range profound arts to attack her.

    "Kill her!"

    From above them, she disyed her red aura and a red Abyssal Null Eye had formed from her aura. Immediately, streaks of earth-shaking red lightning as powerful as the lightning tribtion began to explode across the battle field.

    Many of the demonic cultivators were shocked as they watched theirrades being ripped apart. Even seventh realm cultivators were not an exception!

    It was just too fierce!

    But they could not retreat now because anyone that had fallen was immediately trampled by the charging demonic cultivators.

    Bai Qianfeng echoed her voice as she hummed as she watched the thousands of profound arts dissipating in front of her profound aura, "Try harder."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly shed below Bai Qianfeng as he mmed his wooden box in front of him.

    With a grin, his wooden box had suddenly split opened and 9 divine swords were seen.

    There was 1 half-step emperor divine sword.

    1 saintly sword.

    1 immortal-step divine sword.

    1 celestial-step sword.

    5 heaven-step divine swords.

    There was also a strange looking wooden scabbard.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was sending his nine divine swords into all directions as he shouted, "I am Sword Demon Ji Yuan!"

    Many of the demonic cultivators were startled as they raised their swords to defend against the flying swords.

    Some seeded while others were cut apart.

    A powerful peaked seventh realm demonic cultivator had managed to avoid the lighting from the Abyssal Null Eye and the flying swords that were flying in 9 directions to attack Ji Yuan.

    But the instant that he had reached Ji Yuan, he was cut down by the two emperor divine swords in Ji Yuan''s hands and there were two brilliant divine halo that were radiating like rainbow that hade from these two divine swords.

    Ji Yuan''s forearms were also glowing and there were his two sword spirits!

    All of a sudden all the nearby demonic cultivators could feel the powerful sword intentions radiating from this Sword Demon Ji Yuan.

    The discarded 9 divine swords were suddenly moving again and they were now rotating all over the ce as they cut down one demonic cultivator after another!

    One knowledgeable demonic sect leader shouted, "He is a Sword Immortal?! This is his Sword Domain. Use your profound strength to resist his weaker flying swords. Avoid the more powerful divine swords. His Sword Domain cannotst forever. When he has exhausted his sword intentions, this is the end of this Sword Domain¡­"

    Another high level demonic cultivator added, "He is an idiot for using his Sword Domain so early!"

    While Ji Yuan was using his Flying Swords Domain with his sword intentions, all 9 divine swords would be flying swords capable of rotating and attacking all around him as though they had a will on their own.

    While his Sword Domain was activated, his profound power with his swords would also increase tremendous and the profound power increase was that of a Sword Immortal level and even a defense cultivator would be shocked by Ji Yuan''s direct attacks.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was disying his Thousands Sacred Swords as he attacked with his two emperor-step divine swords, creating dozens of profound swords and exploding it fiercely all around him.

    The strength of his profound power startled even Ji Yuan himself as the profound power of his sword arts depends on the type of Sword Domain that Ji Yuan was using. Usually most Sword Domains would notst this long for Ji Yuan to use any other sword arts and the profound power of his Thousands Sacred Swords were even stronger when he was a middle 8th cultivation realm cultivator!

    He was actually wondering how long this Flying Sword Domain would actuallyst?

    Watching Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng, were the 5 top leaders of the demonic races.

    They were actually watching high above the battle field and were alone.

    They were Old Venerable Lang Ya, Old Gray Skin Ning Fa, Old Lycan Da Mo, Short Green Face Lei Tianhe and Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai.

    The Old Venerable Lang Ya said to the 4 others, "The Abyssal Null Goddess won''t be able to sustain herself at this rate. Although her Abyssal Null Eye is formidable but she can''t move from her position. As for that Sword Demon Ji Yuan, his Sword Domain is too weak and he can''t stop us."

    Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai smiled as he looked at Old Venerable Lang Ya, "I didn''t expect to see another cultivator like you here. Compare to you, his Sword Domain is indeed weak."

    Old Gray Skin Ning Fa smirked, "I am actually expecting for Old Venerable Lang Ya to make the final strike against the Abyssal Null Goddess."

    Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai chuckled, "Do they even stand a chance against the five of us when we join hands?"

    Old Lycan Da Mo said coldly, "I want one of his emperor swords for myself¡­"<novelnext></novelnext>

    All of a sudden he was startled because Ji Yuan had suddenly popped in front of them with a grin and he was saying, "Now that my own forces have reached the battle field, I have decided to leave my Qianfeng for a little while to look for the five of you first."

    There was now no Sword Domain around Ji Yuan anymore.

    Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai smiled, "You have found us to be more friendly hence you have thought that this is a good opportunity to try to persuade us to join your side?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly as he walked on the steep mountain edges, "Actually I am here to kill the 5 of you first. Because I can sense your malevolent air and I know that you are just waiting for an opportunity to turn the tide of battle."

    Old Gray Skin Ning Faughed, "With you alone? You have even exhausted your Sword Domain. How can you fight the 5 of us?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Actually I have dispelled it myself. I found out that my Sword Domain is just zoomed in the same area that I am in. So I drop it toe here."

    The Old Venerable Lang Ya said slowly, "Whether you exhaust your sword intentions or drop your Sword Domain, you can''t muster it again in the short term. Do you know?"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders as he grinned, "I know and that is why I have left my 9 divine swords on the battle field below."

    Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai had suddenly attacked Ji Yuan as he raised his saintly sword, "Without your Sword Domain, you are nothing and you are not a match of our demonic race¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly shed his grand cross in a blight of white light with his two emperor-step divine swords and Bald Hunchback Fey Old Ming Zai was killed instantly.

    The grand cross profound art had also exploded thunderously on the other top 4 leaders but they were quick enough to evade it as the sides of the mountain exploded thunderously with Ji Yuan''s profound energies.

    Old Gray Skin Ning Fa was shocked, "Miracle sword art? You can actually use this powerful profound in such a short time without a warning¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Even since I''ve be a Sword Immortal, I can channel my profound energies at a much faster rate. Even if I don''t have my Sword Domain, I can still defeat all 4 of you."

    Old Lycan Da Moughed, "That Old Ming Zai died because he was too careless. The same sword art cannot be used twice against an experienced opponent such as us. If this is your most powerful sword art then this is the end of your good luck¡­"

    Powerful red profound animus was now being disyed by the top 4 leaders as they nned tobined their powerful profound arts together against Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "This is indeed my most powerful sword art¡­"

    He was suddenly startled because he could feel profound power that could reach to the 8th cultivation realm from these 4 top leaders!

    The Old Venerable Lang Ya smiled wryly, "Actually I have lied about losing to that 8th cultivation realm immortal. I have killed him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But Ji Yuan was soonughing as he leapt into the air to disy his deste cherubim spirit animus and his cultivation realm was increased to the upper 8th cultivation realm.

    This was a surprise to Ji Yuan as well for his cultivation realm had suddenly increased from the middle to the upper tier of the 8th cultivation realm.

    He could feel a surge of profound strength in him and he was quite startled that an upper 8th cultivation realm Immortal was actually much stronger than he had expected.

    The reason for the increased boundary of his cultivation realm was due to his enlightening in the Sword Immortal Divinity and also because his deste cherubim was a ninth rank deste angel.

    Short Green Face Lei Tianhe was startled, "Upper 8th cultivation realm¡­ 9th rank deste cherubim..."

    All of a sudden the entire mountains were shaking as a powerful Sword Domain had suddenly descended and hundreds of profound swords had suddenly appeared around Ji Yuan.

    Old Lycan Da Mo almost vomited blood when he saw that Ji Yuan had another Sword Domain, "This is impossible¡­ you have another Sword Domain?!"

    In fact, all 3 others of the top leaders were also stunned.

    They really did not expect that Ji Yuan would have a Sword Domain to fight all four of their profound arts together.

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "This Sword Domain is my Million Swords Field and the name of this sword art is the Harker of the Million Swords¡­"

    When he had said that, hundreds of profound swords were now gathering from all over the field to follow the lead of Ji Yuan''s two emperor divine swords as they formed one straight line to attack the 4 top leaders who had mustered their profound arts at the same time.

    The profound power of this profound sword art was so overwhelming because these hundreds of profound swords were formed from the profound energies of a physical divine sword that the entire mountain top had a deep cut on top of it and parts of the mountain had even copsed violently onto the battle field!

    In that very instant, the ground below the 4 top leaders had simply exploded thunderously!

    When Ji Yuan had used his Million Swords Field, tens of thousands of demonic cultivators were so shocked by the sudden pressure that had appeared from Ji Yuan that they hadpletely ceased fighting to look at the mountain where the top 5 leaders were.

    Even the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch was watching in awe, "So this is little rascal''s second Sword Domain¡­ it is indeed much stronger than my own Sword Domain¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was also startled by the sudden profound power that had streaked from the heavens to the ground as the hundreds of profound swords exploded thunderously behind the two emperor-step divine swords like a falling meteor.

    The profound power of this Sword Domain had exceeded the 9th immortal cultivation realm!

    Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were also shocked by the profound power that was being disyed by Ji Yuan; this was indeed a heavenly strike that exceeded their imaginations!

    As Ji Yuan fell on the ground of the mountain after the use of his Harker of the Million Swords, he was startled to see that Old Venerable Lang Ya was not dead and he was actually crawled out of the dusty debris!

    Old Venerable Lang Ya said coldly as he stood straight in front of Ji Yuan, "I have never expected to see a full-step Sword Immortal among the cultivators in my day. But this is still not enough to kill me because the shell on my back is a profound treasure that can absorb profound energies."

    Then he had suddenly split his dragon staff apart to reveal an emperor-step divine sword. "There is something that you must know and that is, I am a half-step Sword Immortal and I have not used my Sword Domain yet. I am the strongest cultivator in the entire Demonic Divine Realm."

    On his forehead a red sword spirit had suddenly appeared as he hummed coldly, "This is my immortal sword spirit, the immortal red dragon sword spirit..."

    Author Note:

    1. This chapter is really long and isn''t ending yet;)

 Chapter 624 Battle For The Demonic Outer World (3)

    The heavens above Ji Yuan and Old Venerable Lang Ya had suddenly turned red.

    This shocked the short old man the White Sword Monarch and many others; this sword intention was really strong and it hade from the Old Venerable Lang Ya!

    Bai Qianfeng was suddenly panicky but she could not move from her position as there were too many profound arts that were raining upon her now.

    Instead she turned to rage as she opened her another Abyssal Null Eye, which was golden in color as she disyed her abyssal wrath on all the attackers!

    The numerous demonic cultivators had not expected this and were shocked as the number of dead had suddenly increased as furious divine lightning began to fly in all directions!

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly shouted to the short old man, "Can you clear a path for us through these demonic cultivators?!"

    "Please!" The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly pleading to the short old man too.

    The three of us were the superior swords but they were now being trapped on all sides by the numerous demonic cultivators.

    The short old man sighed heavily, "It is toote to help Ji Yuan and it is impossible for you to enter their fights..."

    "I don''t care! I want to collect his corpse at the very least! He is my lord!" Ling Feiyue cried out.

    "He is my lord too! Once my lord, always my lord even if we are only engaged with each other!" The Smiling Divine Maiden stubbornly insisted and there were shimmering tears in her golden eyes.

    "Alright then..." The short old man sighed as he knew how stubborn his firstborn daughter really was; this was not merely an empty threat. Even if he did not help them, they would both charge into the midst of the demonic cultivators anyway.

    "Yang Thunder Sword!"

    The short old man had suddenly disyed his Sword Domain and an orange chasm had appeared in the heavens above him; this was his one strike, one kill sword immortal profound art which he had created with all his sword intentions!

    Many of the demonic cultivators were suddenly confused and were startled, "There is another Sword Immortal in this ce?!"

    When the heavens had opened a crack, a big crack had also appeared on the earth too as a wave of powerful profound energies exploded like an unstoppable orange wave to create a corridor toward the mountain where Ji Yuan was!

    Uncountable demonic cultivators were killed by this Yang Thunder Sword alone!

    The short old man said quietly to himself after he had unleashed his sword domain, "I can only use my Yang Thunder Sword only once but it is still not enough..."

    Ling Feiyue had disyed her lightness skill as she flew along the path of the Yang Thunder Fire and next to her was the Smiling Divine Maiden as well!

    All of a sudden Ling Feiyue had disyed her Flying Spirit Sword Art as she sent dozens of profound swords to explode a path but for her but this was still not enough!

    And she was in tears now.

    All of a sudden her dozens of profound swords had be hundreds of profound swords as her terrifying sword intentions began to form into her very own Flying Spirits Sword Domain as she raised her sword spirit to merge with her sword intentions!

    If Ji Yuan could do that, so could she!

    The short old man and the Smiling Divine Maiden were startled that Ling Feiyue had suddenly be a half-step Sword Immortal and had realized her very own sword domain; she was indeed a genius among all the sword geniuses!

    However this was still not enough even though hundreds of demonic cultivators were wounded or dead along their paths.

    Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden quietly said to Ling Feiyue as she shed forward, "I will be your shield!"

    She had turned into a sh of blur as she raised her divine sword; she too had formed her very own sword domain but this was a weaker sword domain like Ji Yuan''s Flying Swords Domain but was sustainable; she had the intention to cut a path through the demonic cultivators to reach Ji Yuan!

    The short old man blinked with disbelief when he saw that the two maidens had suddenly realized their very own unique sword domains with their indomitable sword wills.<novelnext></novelnext>

    Bing a sword saint was already not an easy thing and creating a sword domain was something that was actually almost impossible for the boundary to the Sword Immortal was an almost impassable barrier that required the cultivator to have absolute conviction in their wills; it simply could not tolerant any forms of doubts or it would surely fail!

    Even 1 failure could assure that cultivator would never again form his sword domain from their sword intentions ever again!

    And also, forming sword domains in battle could also assured plenty of bacshes on the cultivator and the chances of failure was even higher!

    However these two maidens simply wanted to reach Ji Yuan and to collect his corpse!

    -

    -

    -

    It was really toote to stop the Old Venerable Lang Ya.

    He had dyed the heavens above him into a blood color and his powerful red dragon sword spirit was glowing brilliantly.

    And in his hand was also an emperor-step divine sword!

    He said coldly, "This is my Blood Heavens Sword Domain, my Blood Heavens Deste Sword!"

    A powerful red profound sword was suddenly forming above the red heavens and was descending upon Ji Yuan, exerting a tremendous amount of pressure upon him!

    Old Venerable Lang Ya added with a wryly smile, "Today is a battle between two of the greatest Sword Immortals from the two divine realms!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "You are waiting for my spirit animus to be exhausted before you use this sword art, am I right? So I won''t be able to even use my 8th cultivation realm to escape from you."

    Old Venerable Lang Ya smiled coldly, "This is our Demonic Divine Realm. It is not hard to obtain information of my enemies as long as you are willing to pay the price."

    Ji Yuanughed too, "Unfortunately I have no intention of escaping..."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was able to stand and to neutralize the great pressure as he disyed his third sword domain, the Life and Death Sword Domain."

    Old Venerable Lang Ya was startled as he stared at Ji Yuan with disbelief, "You have a third sword domain?! This is impossible..."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly raised his two emperor-steps swords and his life force energies were surging like a rising phoenix before exploding through the vicinity in the form of a gigantic grand cross, dissipating the gigantic red sword in the heavens above and also ripping Old Venerable Lang Ya as well.

    Everyone could see that the mountain top had exploded with a brilliant white explosion and was developed with deadly life force energies!

    The short old man was startled, "This is Ji Yuan''s third sword domain?! Didn''t he say that this is only his miracle sword art the grand cross sword art? But this is actually a life force energies sword art? He is... crazy... but worthy of being my direct prot??g??. Muhahaaha..."

    Ji Yuan shed to crush the head of the Old Venerable Lang Ya as he said breathlessly, "Haha. Your tortoise shell can absorb profound energies but can you absorb my life force energies? In the end my life force energies grand cross is superior to your sword domain. Maybe if you have one more emperor sword and one more sword spirit, you may stand a chance. But this is no for now."

    Ling Feiyue and the Smiling Divine Maiden had reached next to Ji Yuan by now and they were startled with disbelief that this third sword domain of his would be even more powerful than his second sword domain!

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Ji Yuan has disyed all 3 of his Sword Domains in this battle!

 Chapter 625 Battle For The Demonic Outer World (4)

    Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden gasped when they saw that Ji Yuan had survived the battle with Old Venerable Lang Ya.

    How did Ji Yuan''s third sword domain suddenly be a life force energies grand cross profound attack?

    Ji Yuan had actually told them that his third Sword Domain was to strengthen his grand cross profound attack; he really did not lie at all except that he had left out the life force energies portion of the story.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he asked Xiang Li to wipe out Old Venerable Lang Ya''s emperor sword and he had handed it over to Ling Feiyue.

    There were actually 4 other saint-step swords here and he had passed one to Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    In normal circumstances, Ji Yuan would never loot from his opponents save for their divine swords; sword cultivators actually considered confiscating the renowned swords of their opponents as a honor to their defeated opponents.

    The Old Venerable Lang Ya actually had a dragon staff which was a heaven-step divine weapon and inside it was actually an emperor-step divine sword.

    For the dragon staff, although he had shown little interest but he had picked it nevertheless as a tribute to the strongest sword saint that he had fought in this battle.

    Ji Yuan muttered with wondrous as he felt both his sword spirits growing in power as though they were absorbing profound power of the immortal sword spirit as their own; both sword spirits were glowing brightly right now!

    Ling Feiyue was startled that Ji Yuan had actually thrown the emperor-step divine sword to her instead of giving it to Chu Lixue who was the stronger sword saintess between the two of them.

    "This is too precious a gift?"

    Ji Yuanughed nonchntly, "Although your new sword domain covers a wide area but without a good divine sword, the killing field of your sword domain is limited and you won''t be able to hurt the cultivators that are at your same cultivation level."

    Ling Feiyue said shyly, "Thank you my lord then..."

    Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden was all smiles as she raised the saint-step divine sword to inspect it, "Good sword! Thank you!"

    Ji Yuanughed when he had heard the praise of his senior protege sister. "Wee!"

    Then he said solemnly, "I need to help my Qianfeng now..."

    Ling Feiyue was startled, "My lord, do you still have the profound strength?"

    Even Chu Lixue was startled, "You have already been through a terrible battle and our enemies are too numerous..."

    But Ji Yuan had already shed down the mountains as he appeared quickly near to Bai Qianfeng. As he raised his two divine swords, he shouted aloud. "Qianfeng! I am here!"

    As Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue knew of Ji Yuan''s intention, they quickly backed him from the back, preventing the demonic cultivators from overwhelming Ji Yuan.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly when she saw Ji Yuan, "My lord, you are safe..."

    Ji Yuan shouted aloud with all his profound strength, "No one can green us!!!"

    All of a sudden powerful sword intentions began to sharply exploded where Ji Yuan was and a powerful pressure began to seize all the demonic cultivators from the vicinity.

    All of a sudden thousands of masterless divine swords and precious swords began to tremble and fly all around the vicinity, killing and wounding the shocked demonic cultivators!

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed his fourth sword domain which was abination of his Million Swords Domain and his Flying Swords Domain!<novelnext></novelnext>

    Thousands of masterless swords were now flying all over the ce as the entire battle field was filled with even more terrifying battle cries.

    And those that could survive the flying swords were fried by the spheres of lightning from the 2 Abyssal Null Eyes!

    The short old man, Ling Feiyue, Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, Bai Qianfeng, the Subus Queen Minami, Misa, Miya and all the rest of the demonic cultivators were shocked that Ji Yuan was capable of disying a fourth sword domain!

    The short old man gasped with shock, "To control so many swords in actual battle, this is the divinity of a Sword Deity..."

    The Subus Queen Minami gasped with shock, "Our lord Ji Yuan is the Sword Demon God which our legend is said to have prophesied toe..."

    Then she shouted loudly with her profound strength, "Anyone that fights the Sword Demon God will surely die. Many cultivators will die and their blood spill without even realizing that they have encountered the Sword Demon God. Even the top 5 legendary demonic cultivators havd all died trying to fight against the Sword Demon God Ji Yuan! Do we still need proof that our lord Ji Yuan is the Sword Demon God?!"

    When she had said that, the demonic cultivators on Ji Yuan''s side became berserk and their vigor increased further!

    On the other hand, the opposing demonic cultivators were demoralized and they were not fighting that hard; it was because many of their leaderships were using them as scapegoats or wishing that an opposition demonic n would lose their top cultivators.

    And also, many of the demonic cultivators were now fearful of Ji Yuan and they really thought of him as the Demon Sword God as tens of thousands of masterless swords were flying all over the ce to inflict carnage!

    Many of the demonic ns were even openly switching sides now and were proiming that they were surrending!

    "He is the Sword Demon God Ji Yuan! We can''t defeat him..."

    "This sword domain looks endless..."

    "More than 300 000 demonic cultivators are dead now..."

    "I see 300 000 swords flying all around..."

    "Are we fighting swords that can''t even die?!"

    Actually Ji Yuan was already at his breaking point when he had used this sword domain but he refused to give up. If he did, then he would be green by his opponents.

    And he would not allow himself to be green by his opponents so he forced himself to persist with all his remaining profound strength; he was actually also startled by the numerous swords that he had to control!

    But all of a sudden 12 lights began to sh and exploded above the heavens!

    It was the sight of 12 high level immortals and they had suppressed Ji Yuan''s sword domain in an instant!

    This caused Ji Yuan to copse instantly,pletely spentand drained!

    1 of the 12 immortals was shouting furiously now, "Who dares to mess with our Demonic Divine Realm?"

    -------

    Author Note:

    1. This arc has not ended yet!

 Chapter 626 Battle For The Demonic Outer World (5)

    12 lofty Immortals had suddenly appeared in the heavens above and they were exerting such a tremendous pressure on the battle field below that many of the demonic cultivators were on their knees and most of the fighting had also ceased.

    These 12 Immortals were naturally aware that something was amissed in the lower divine realm below and hade to investigate with a much stronger number this time.

    Also they were awared that 3 Immortals from the Deste Divine Realm were killed in the lower divine realm and they could not believe that any cultivator from the lower realm would be able to kill 3 Immortals and that none of them could even make their escape.

    Bai Qianfeng had ceased her profound attacks to conserve her remaining profound strength to turn her attention to this new threat.

    Ji Yuan''s sword domain waspleted dissipated by the new threat; he did not have much profound strength to maintain his sword domain anyway and he had maintained it by his sheer willpower to protect Bai Qianfeng.

    When his sword domain was dissipated, Ji Yuan waspletely ttened on the ground but in the next instant, he was trembling uncontroble as he struggled to stand with his two emperor-step swords but he really could not...

    "Xiang Li, Anyang. I need your help to stand.."

    This was a strange request and was the first time that Ji Yuan had asked his two spirit entities to do so.

    But a tearful Xiang Li and Anyang knew what was happening and they had appeared in their stunning beautiful forms to help Ji Yuan to stand straight...

    When everyone saw Xiang Li and Anyang, they were stunned for they gave off an unearthy beauty that was unnatural and yet they were all so holistic.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "This is myst battle I guess..."

    Xiang Li and Anyang knew that Ji Yuan hadpletely exhausted his profound strength to use thest sword domain...

    "Tell me where are my opponents are and help me to face them." Ji Yuan continued to tremble uncontrobly.

    The reason why he had said that was because he could no longer see as he had used arge amount of his profound strength and even his life force energies in this battle. Now even his divine sense was extremely feeble!

    What had appeared in front of Ji Yuan was just a blur and he could only see darkness; he hadpletely over exceeded his cultivation boundary.

    A tearful and trembling Xiang Li guided Ji Yuan to

    face the 12 Immortals while a weeping Anyang helped to steady him.

    Ji Yuan said almost incoherent, "I can still... use a single...life force energy grand cross profound attack. This is enough to take 1 of them... right?"

    Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue were startled when they had heard Ji Yuan...

    By now an anxious Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong had alsoe near to Ji Yuan and they were shocked when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    This was not something that they had expected to hear but against 12 Immortals, this was an almost impossible battle to ovee!

    The profound auras of these 12 Immortals were all extremely powerful and all of them were of the 9th immortal positioning cultivation realm!

    Most of the demonic cultivators were actually about to surrender when the 12 Immortals had suddenly appeared.

    When they had appeared, most of the demonic cultivators had actually changed their mind about surrending!

    In fact, many of the demonic cultivators were now cheering when Ji Yuan''s flying swords and Bai Qianfeng''s Abyssal Null Eyes had suddenly stopped.

    Today was going to be a victorious day for the demonic cultivators from their Demonic Divine Realm!

    As soon as the Immortal had shouted who had dared to mess around with their Demonic Divine Realm and saw that it was an Ancient Deste Immortal that was floating in the heavens before him, he was startled.

    It was because many of the other Immortals, including him had recognized that it was actually the Abyssal Null Goddess, an Ancient City Citadel Sovereign that had disappeared for a few thousands years.

    And today, they had finally found her!

    Most of these Immortals were actually Deste Immortals and they had paid an equivalent price in profound treasures to go down to this lower realm to investigate the strange things that happened in there.

    One must know that Ancient Deste Immortals have a much purer bloodline than a normal Deste Immortal.<novelnext></novelnext>

    So when they saw the profound aura of an Ancient Deste Immortal, they were shocked.

    In fact, the leading Immortal quickly said with great reverence. "This immortal pays my homage to the Great Abyssal Null Abyssal! You are finally back now!"

    Bai Qianfeng was surprised also, "You are Little Doggie?"

    When everyone heard that Bai Qianfeng had called this powerful leading immortal ''Little Doggie'', they could notugh at all and were startled instead!

    The Immortal that called Little Doggieughed jovially, "It is instead your Little Doggie! I am so d to wee the Null Abyssal Goddess back today!"

    Many of the other immortals were also shocked as they muttered, "This is the Abyssal Null Goddess and she is alive?!"

    Ji Yuan was also startled that the leading immortal had recognized Bai Qianfeng and he was weakly muttering, "I wonder why Qianfeng keeps so many pets around for..."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled and asked, "How are things now at the Ancient Fortress City?"

    Little Doggie the Immortal quickly answered, "6 out of the 12 Ancient Citadel Lords had either perished or defected to the Pangu Immortals since you hadst fought with the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. Another 3 are missing and there are only 2 Ancient Citadel Lords to fight the Pangu Immortals now..."

    Then he said with a short pause. "As for your Null Citadel, your Little Doggie has been keeping it running while we search for our Great Abyssal Null Goddess to return."

    Then he smiled, "And today we have found you!"

    He had suddenly turned to look at the thousands of demonic cultivators below with an angry wrath, "Whoever dares to even lift a little finger against the Great Abssyal Null Goddess shall face our full wrath today!"

    All the 11 other immortals were all disying their powerful profound animus now and their profound animus were backed by their 9th cultivation realm profound arts!

    Little Doggie the Immortal hummed coldly, "These stupid demonic cultivators here did not seem to know the lofty status of a Ancient Citadel Sovereign in the upper Deste Divine Realm. And today they have dared to offend one of the rulers of the Deste Divine Realm. They must be tired of living!"

    Ji Yuan was startled: My Qianfeng is one of the rulers of the Deste Divine Realm?!

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as her divine voice echoed, "They have dared to hurt Ji Yuan so their only punishment is to be killed by us. And moreover they have dared to look into this goddess with such disdainful look, this is also a death sentence. So kill them all."

    When all the opposing demonic cultivators had heard Bai Qianfeng, they were all on their knees as they wailed aloud to plead for clemency and mercy!

    There werepletely no opposition because no one could win against 13 immortals!

    And when they had heard of the lofty status of the Abyssal Null Goddess in the Deste Divine Realm, they were now all begging to kiss her toes and to worship her as their supreme leader!

    Bai Qianfeng hummed softly, "If you really want to join my side then join with your most sincere heart or my Abyssal Null Eyes will surely strike you down!"

    All the demonic cultivators, numerous demonic sect leaders and elders were all swearing allegiances to the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    And the Abyssal Null Eyes did not even trigger once!

    Ji Yuan was startled as he struggled to stand and he was cursing almost incoherently, "These demonic cultivators are all dogs and have no spines..."

    Bai Qianfeng said coldly to all the demonic cultivators presented, "Then you shall follow my rules for this divine realm..."

    Little Doggie the Immortal said, "Then we shall help to enforce the will of our Great Abyssal Null Goddess before we depart from this divine realm."

    Most of the immortals could only go to the lower realm with a heavy price and it was only temporary. But for certain extremely powerful immortals like the True Gods of the Deste Divine Realm and the Abyssal Null Goddess, they could stay in the lower realm by paying a price and blending the mysticws of the ce because of their powerful bloodlines and profound strength.

    Author Note

    1. There is actually no fight in this chapter!

 Chapter 627 A New Homeland For Humanity

    The Demonic Outer World now had a new supreme leader and that was the Abyssal Null Goddess. All the demonic ns were fully united in this.

    Because none of the demonic cultivators were willing to fight against 13 immortals and especially when they had learnt that the Abyssal Null Goddess had a lofty status in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    For those demonic ns that did not send any representative, they were beaten into submission by the powerful demonic ns that hailed the Abyssal Null Goddess as supreme leader; it was because the demonic ns that had submitted to the Abyssal Null Goddess were all the powerful demonic ns.

    Now the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel was even more renowned than the Major Dark Phantom Citadel and that was because that was where the Abyssal Null Goddess had her residence.

    And the Subus Queen Minami was naturally held in a high esteem now as she was now known as the demonic servant that was nearest to the Abyssal Null Goddess. Naturally her words were noww.

    Tens of thousands of the demonic cultivators were now at the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel to pay their humble respect to the Abyssal Null Goddess and the 12 Immortals.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was now renowned as the Sword Demon God Ji Yuan as he had not only defeated the top 5 demonic cultivators but he had also killed numerous demonic cultivators with his sword arts.

    There was no doubt that Ji Yuan was an extreme sword cultivator in the Demonic Divine Realm and no one had the intention to fight with either Ji Yuan or Bai Qianfeng.

    Also, Ji Yuan''spanions were not weak and there were even 3 Sword Immortals among them and they were the White Sword Monarch, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Ling Feiyue.

    Behind the close door of the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel, there were 2 powerful demonic immortals that did not share the same origin with the deste immortals and they were heard expressing their unhappiness to the Abyssal Null Goddess in her throne room.

    In this close door was Ji Yuan, the short old man the White Sword Monarch, Ling Feiyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the 13 Immortals and thest was naturally Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    One of them said, "We are unlike you. We do not hail from the Immortal Divine Realm. Instead we are from this divine realm before we ascended and we belong to the Death God Mingwang faction. Do you think that we will submit to this callous rule of yours?"

    Another one said coldly, "Even though the Death God Mingwang is absent from our Deste Divine Realm for the past thousands of years, his position is firmly in our hearts. One day our Death God Mingwang will surely return to teach you Deste Immortals a lesson or two!"

    Little Doggie the Immortal shouted at the two demonic immortals, "How dare you be rude to our Great Abyssal Null Goddess¡­"

    The Abyssal Null Goddess interrupted as she smiled coldly, "Then all the more you should bow before me. That is because I am the direct prot¨¦g¨¦ of your Death God Mingwang. Not only me¡­"

    She then pointed to the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress. "They are also the direct prot¨¦g¨¦s of your Death God Mingwang. And what are the two of you? You are merely loyal servants."

    When she had said that, all the other immortals and even Little Doggie the Immortal was shocked; the Abyssal Null Goddess was the direct prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Death God Mingwang?!

    Ji Yuan turned to the two immortals to grin, "You have better believe it. Because¡­"

    He wanted to say because he had already banged their True God the Death God Mingwang aka Yun Chi. But he quickly changed his mind to say. "Because we are much closer to the Death God Mingwang than you think. And moreover we even know where the Death God Mingwang is now. In fact, after this trial, we will be seeing the Death God Mingwang again. You don''t mind letting me know your names so that I can report this directly to the Death God Mingwang?"

    The two immortals had turned ashen and they quickly said, "Naturally we won''t doubt the Abyssal Null Goddess if you say that you are our True God''s direct prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Then they quickly bowed with their hands toward the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress even though they had a much lower cultivation realm than them.

    The world of the immortals is different from the lower realm; their words are golden and are sealed in gold.

    When the Abyssal Null Goddess had said that she was a direct prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Death God Mingwang, she would not be making any false ims. This was not the way of a high immortal and their soul sea would not allow them to tell any untruths or there would be an immortal bacsh.

    When Ji Yuan saw that these two immortals were suddenly so submissive, he was thinking in secret: Maybe if Yun Chi is here, things would be even easier.

    He was suddenly curious to know how strong a True God was.

    The Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng said nonchntly, "The two of you are merely ascended immortals and are not native of the Deste Divine Realm. You may not know this previously but now you do now."

    `Ji Yuan asked Bai Qianfeng curiously, "Now that you are a supreme leader. What do you n to do with this world now?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "We are going to partition a part of this divine realm for humanity."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng exined with a wry smile, "There is a ce in the Demonic Inner World that looks like the Celestial Realm and it have many tall mountains. It is quite an isted ce that even the demonic cultivators would dread to go."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What ce is this?"

    When he had asked this question, all the immortals, including his group which consisted of the short old man the White Sword Monarch, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong, Ling Feiyue and the Lovely Empress were all looking at Bai Qianfeng curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled slowly as she looked at the map array in front of her. After a while she began to say slowly, "Let''s call this ce the Fenghua Great Continent then. We shall move all humanity to this ce since they have no homnd now. If they persist in staying in their current homnds, we can''t stop them since this is their choice to remain. But for those that persist in staying in the Fenghua Great Continent, this ce shall be their safe haven."

    Then she started to smile at Ji Yuan and the rest, "I guess that we will be a little busy before we go back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I need all of you to gather humanity to this safe haven first. We can''t really use the demonic cultivators for this and we need to find the other golden celestials here and to persuade them to move to the Fenghua Great Continent.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "No problem! Leave this to me instead!"

    Ling Feiyue was smiling too, "No problem! Leave them to me."

    The Lovely Empress hummed softly, "Can''t I stay here a little longer? I am injured¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden took a weak look at her but say nothing; she was actually not in the least injured¡­

    Ling Feiyue weakly thought: She just want to be with Ji Yuan for a few days? Isn''t this a little too obvious?

    The short old man took a look the Lovely Empress before he roared withughter, "Let me check your injuries for you first."<novelnext></novelnext>

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    "Don''t you dare to touch me..."

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was now back to the human vige in the Dark Phantom Forest with Zhi Jiugong.

    This human vige was where they had first started when they had first stepped foot in this Demonic Outer World and it was where they had learnt about this divine realm.

    The Grand Elder Tu, Long Hu and many others were surprised to see Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong again.

    There were even some maidens that Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong had rescued back then in the Dark Phantom Forest and they had also recognized Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong as well.

    "Great Hero, you are back so soon?" The Grand Elder Tu was startled. "Then he quickly said, "It is alright toe back for resupply. We know that the strength of your profound animus is only 444 points."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly protested, "Actually I am much stronger now¡­"

    "Actually we are here to tell you that we have reached a settlement with the demonic ns in the Demonic Outer World." Zhi Jiugong smiled as she quickly stated their intentions.

    "If you are willing to trust us then we will bring you to a new homnd via a teleport array. In this ce, you will be safe from the constant threats of the demonic cultivators and you will be able to cultivate in peace."

    JI Yuan nodded as he exined, "And you will be able to obtain new profound treasures as your heritages and the demonic cultivators would not oppress you anymore. You lot are the luckiest because you are still free. As for those that are captivated by the nearby demonic ns, we will try to put all of you in the same vicinity so that they can at least be united with some of their kins and friends."

    Grand Elder Tu could not believe what he was hearing, "Is this really true? This isn''t a trick?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course not. You can trust me on this."

    Grand Elder Tu said with uncertainty as he looked at the rest of the human cultivators that had gathered, "I will rather trust Maiden Zhi Jiugong on this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Zhi Jiugong smiled awkwardly, "We are serious. This Fenghua Great Continent is where you will be safe from the demonic cultivators. And I hope that you would all go to this ce. If you remain in this ce, we really can''t promise you if the demonic cultivators would not attack you."

    Grand Elder Tu muttered, "But this ce is safe for us and we have been here for generations."

    Zhi Jiugong smiled, "The Fenghua Great Continent will be safer for your future generations. It is because several immortals will create an immortal array there. Any demonic cultivators entering that ce will be restricted in their profound strength. So it will be a dreadful ce for them."

    A handsomed of 13 asked curiously, "Is this even possible? Just how big is this Fenghua Great Continent anyway? The cultivation resources that are required to create such an immortal array are not something that any cultivator or immortal can afford to pay."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t you worry about this. We have thousands of demonic ns paying for this immortal array. Haha¡­"

    The youngd and the rest of the human cultivators were startled, "How is it possible?"

    But the youngd quickly said as he took a curious look at Ji Yuan, "You are not lying¡­"

    He turned to Grand Elder Tu to say, "They are not lying. I know."

    Now it was Ji Yuan turn to be startled, "You know? How do you know?"

    Grand Elder Tu exined, "He is the young genius of our vige. He has the foresight ability."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he looked at the youngd, "This is an interesting ability¡­"

    Then heughed as he mmed his wooden box in front of the youngd as he opened it to reveal 9 divine swords and a scabbard.

    "Except for 4 of these divine swords and my wooden scabbard, I am leaving you 5 of my divine swords and this wooden box to help your vige in the future."

    The youngd smiled weakly, "Actually I have nobat ability. That is because I suck in this. So you can keep it."

    Ji Yuan frowned with disbelief, "Young genius. What is your name?"

    The youngd answered quietly, "Shen Lie."

    1. The Sword Demon God at the start of the story actually refer to the futureing of Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 628 5th Sword Domain

    Ji Yuan and Zhi Jiugong were now back to the Dark Phantom Citadel; it had taken them actually several days to search for the remaining human viges in the innermost dark phantom forest and to convince them to go to the new ce.

    It was because if humanity had decided to stay with the demonic cultivators, they would always be the weaker race and never the superior race. And it was human nature to bow before the superior.

    Ji Yuan was delighted that the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both back to the Dark Phantom Citadel.

    This was a surprise to him as he was actually the nearest to his destination than the others.

    "They are back so fast?"

    Indeed the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were already waiting impatiently for him.

    The minute that they saw him walking with Zhi Jiugong along the majestic castle ramps of the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel, they began to walk rapidly to greet him as though they had already been waiting for him for a long time.

    "Ji Yuan!" The Lovely Empress giggled softly as she looked coyly at him with her lovely golden eyes. "You are finally back now?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue shyly said as her divine look lit up the vicinity with her presence, "Junior Prot??g?? Brother Ji Yuan, you are back."

    As Ji Yuan walked to greet them, he was startled when the two sisters had suddenly grabbed him by his arms and they were resting their heads on his shoulders.

    A startled Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "This... erm..."

    He tried to turn around to look at Zhi Jiugong for an answer but instead she was smiling and pretending not to see a thing.

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "Ji Yuan, are you happy to see us again? Come share with us your adventures while you are away."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Actually it is only a few days. Surely you don''t expect that I have something unusual during the past few days? My answer is actually nothing unusual has happened..."

    "Come." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled as she pulled Ji Yuan closer to her. "Tell us about your adventures."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Zhi Jiugong smiled as she walked in another direction, "I have something else first. Enjoy your chats with one another."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Maiden Zhi Jiugong, you are not joining us?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled as she continued to walk away and her back was turned in Ji Yuan''s direction, "Next time."

    She was smiling as she left the scene; these two were her sisters and she knew what they were thinking about.

    When Ji Yuan had suddenly be so strong, these two sisters were a little panicky that they did not have a position in Ji Yuan''s heart and hence they were trying to get more intimate with him.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu knew that Zhi Jiugong was already intimate with Ji Yuan and she was panicky.

    As for the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, she had already heard from Zhi Jiugong that she had been intimated with Ji Yuan.

    Zhi Jiugong was frank with both her two sisters about her rtionship with Ji Yuan since the three of them had always been very close with one another.

    Also, once they were back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they would get even lesser chance to be with Ji Yuan.<novelnext></novelnext>

    Therefore they had hurried back from their ''mission'' as they knew that Ji Yuan would be back the earliest.

    However they had to be back even earlier and notter.

    That was the reason why Zhi Jiugong was smiling as she left the scene: s, Sister Chu Lixue and Sister Lu Jiangsu. I know the two of you only two well...

    Among the three sisters, Zhi Jiugong knew that the Lovely Empress was the most impatient; or else she would not have gone alone to try to confront Ji Yuan at the very first opportunity while they were at Bliss City.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was feeling he was so blessed to have two most beautiful maidens around and they were both hugging him tightly side by side.

    He was like the happiest man in the Demonic Divine Realm right now.

    "Haha... I just wondering what is up with the two of you today?" Still, he could not resist asking them.

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "You know. You don''t have to be serious about what I say that day."

    "That day?" Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "What day? Haha..."

    Actually he could guess that she meant the day that she said that she would only give her body to him only when they got married. But he pretended to ask nevertheless.

    The Lovely Empress was flustered as she giggled softly, "You! You... are really a free of charge guy..."

    JI Yuanughed as he turned to the Smiling Divine Maiden to ask gently, "And what''s up with you today as well?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled faintly as she looked at Ji Yuan for a while before answering bluntly, "I don''t want to be your senior prot??g?? sister. I just want you as my lord. Surely you have already known about this. We give up our immortality for you. Also..."

    She began to smile alluringly, "You are someone that knows how to use 4 sword domains. Naturally I am unwilling to give up on someone like you so easily."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually I do know a 5th sword domain."

    When he had said that, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were both stunned, "A 5th ... sword domain?!"

    One must know that even a single sword domain was already extremely difficult but Ji Yuan was now telling them that he actually knows how to disy a 5th sword domain?!

    This was too unbelievable!

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I was actually out of profound strength that day. The 5th sword domain isn''t that awe inspiring whenpared to my 4th sword domain."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked him curiously, "Do you care to tell us about this mysterious 5th sword domain?"

    Ji Yuan slowly moved his hands from their waists to their butts and then between the curves of their butts to say, "Of course I can. The two of you are my consorts to be."

    The Lovely Empress could feel Ji Yuan''s dirty hands on her butts and she was flushing, "You sure know how to take advantage of us..."

    Ji Yuanughed as he pulled the two of them close to him, "I can promise you that this is a secret that only the three of us know. Not even Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong or my goddess Bai Qianfeng knows about this. Haha..."

    1. JY knows a 5th sword domain!

 Chapter 629 Return To The Great Valhalla Hall

    Dayster in the Minor Dark Phantom Citadel...

    Ji Yuan was able to spend time with Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    By then, Ling Feiyue and the White Sword Monarch had also returned.

    Bai Qianfeng and the 12 other immortals had also returned from the Fenghua Great Continent; they had erected an immortal array in that ce as a safe haven for humanity.

    When Bai Qianfeng had returned and saw that everyone was already back, she smiled faintly and said. "We should leave now too."

    Ji Yuan and the others agreed with this decision.

    Right in front of Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, the lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the White Sword Monarch, she hadmanded her Avatar, an identical clone of herself to step forward.

    This startled everyone.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "This is my Avatar. She shall rule in this ce in my stead."

    Ji Yuan knew that all avatars had amon weakness and that was that they could not withstand a strong hit.

    But the presence of this Avatar Abyssal Null Goddess would ensure that peace would be there for some time since this divine realm needed a supreme leader.

    As for the Subus Queen Minami, Miya and Misa, they would be staying put in this ce as the leaders of the new alliance.

    Now it was time for Ji Yuan to bid them farewell.

    Ji Yuan took a look at the Subus Queen Minami, Miya and Misa but there was no reluctant in his heart even though he had missed theirpany; he was now ready to leave this ce.

    From where he was, he raised both his hands to say. "Minami, Miya and Misa. This is farewell now..."

    For the past several weeks, he had also been quite close to these three subus females. There were even a few times that he was so jovial that he had got drunk with them.

    The Subus Queen Minami sighed softly, "Farewell Sword Demon God Ji Yuan..."

    Miya and Misa also had a look of reluctant as they bade him farewell.

    To them and to many of the demonic cultivators, Ji Yuan was the undisputed Sword Demon God after he had defeated the 5 top fighters of the demonic cultivators and that he had also disyed 4 sword domains in front of so many demonic cultivators; he was the number one top fighter among all the seventh realm cultivators in the Demonic Divine Realm, whether they were the demonic cultivators or the golden celestials.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he looked at them once again before shing his golden talisman.

    The rest of his group were also shing their golden talisman; it was finally time for them to go from this Demonic Divine Realm and back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    After Ji Yuan had burned his golden talisman, he had vanished and was gone. He was soon followed by hispanions too.

    There were tearful looks on the Subus Queen Minami, Miya and Misa.

    The 12 Immortals were all shouting aloud as Bai Qianfeng disappeared in a golden halo of light, "Farewell to the Great Abyssal Null Goddess! May the great blessings of the Great Beyond Goddess be onto the Great Abyssal Null Goddess!"

    Bai Qianfeng merely nodded as she disappeared but she had caught their farewell messages and was thinking: I had actually seen the Great Beyond Goddess...

    When Ji Yuan was gone, these three subus females were known as the Sword Demon God''s women and their descendants would be known as the royal demonic cultivators in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    -

    In the Great Valha Hall, five maidens were waiting patiently for Ji Yuan and his group to return.

    These five maidens were Yun Chi, Little Princess, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue.

    In the past several days, they could see several dozens of the golden celestials returning from the trial in a sh of light.

    However none of the golden celestials were able to score 100 000 points to make a mark in the Great Valha Hall.

    All of a sudden Yun Chi could sense a familiar aura as she said to the others, "Look!"

    Immediately the other four maidens began to look in the direction that Yun Chi was looking at.<novelnext></novelnext>

    First to enter the Great Valha Hall was Zhi Jiugong who had suddenly appeared and she had scored 3231 points.

    However her spiritual points vanished almost immediately as she had scored less than 100 000 points.

    Next to appear was the Lovely Empress and she had scored 4212 points. Again this score was less than the 100 000 points required.

    She was giggling softly and looked unmindful at all at her disappointing results.

    Ling Feiyue was the next one to appear and she had scored 28167. This was a massive gain in points but however this was still short of the 100 000 points required.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was the next person to appear and she had scored 36135 points. But again, this was far less than the 100000 points required.

    However the Smiling Divine Maiden did not look in the least disappointed and everyone that was looking at her were all delighted by her delightful divine presence; like Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress, she was also smiling.

    The short old man or the White Sword Monarch was the next person to appear in the Great Valha Hall and he had scored 101245 points.

    Yun Chi and the rest of her group were now gasping; it was because he had scored 100000 points to leave his mark in the Great Valha Hall and he would get a lofty trial reward.

    Feng Minyue smiled as she took a look at Yang Mi, "As expected from your father the White Sword Monarch, this is an amazing result."

    Next to appear was Bai Qianfeng and as she graced the great hall, there were loud trumpets in the Great Valha Hall and her points were 3 244 123!

    And she would soon receive her trial reward.

    Yun Chi, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all startled by her astonishing result. This was a new record in the Great Valha Hall!

    Yu Jingjing muttered, "Is Ji Yuaning back? I am a little anxious for him..."

    Yang Mi was also anxious for Ji Yuan, "Our lord, he is a little weak in his profound strength but he is strong in his cultivation realm. He will be alright..."

    As Yang Mi tried to convince herself, Ji Yuan had appeared in a golden light and the trumpets were blowing loudly; it was because he had scored 4 212 224 points!

    This was a new record!

    Ji Yuan had actually lost count of his victory points because he was so focused on killing the top 5 demonic cultivators. Also when he had used his 4th sword domain and was controlling 300 000 swords, he was too drained to focus on the points that he was gaining.

    He looked delightfully as heughed jovially, "I have 4 212 224 points. Haha. Am I second?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she looked at him, "I have only 3 244 123 points. Therefore you are first. Congrats on being a mass murderer."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He muttered weakly, "Why do you say that?"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly, "That is because you love to kill animals and these demonic cultivators have some features of an animal in their appearances."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He smiled weakly before heughed to his group, "I wonder what my reward shall be?"

    But he was soon grinning broadly when he had spotted Yun Chi, the Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing. "Everyone, I am back now. Haha..."

    Then he took a look at Little Princess as he said weakly, "My dear Little Princess, erm... have you seen Hua Xunzitely?"

    Author Note:

    1. Well, JY did have an affair with the three female subus when he was drunk but he did not know about this. *silly face*

 Chapter 630 The SS Trial Reward

    Ji Yuan had suddenly asked Little Princess if she had seen Hua Xunzitely.

    A surprised Little Princess slowly nodded, "I did. She seems to be in a hurry to leave. Did she rob you or something?"

    When Ji Yuan had heard that Hua Xunzi had already left the Demonic Divine Realm, he was relieved but at the same time he was a little perplexed.

    "Nothing really. Haha¡­" Although he had said this but there was a look of determination in his golden eyes; he was determined to catch this ''little vixen'' that had banged him when he was not himself.

    An old voice had suddenly interrupted all of them, ringing through them. This was the old voice of the trial spirit, "The three of you that have scored 100 000 points, will you pleasee to the end of the Great Valha Hall. From now onward, this trial will no longer exist but your names shall be immortalized here forever."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This trial will no longer exist? Then how do we go back again?"

    The old voice answered nonchntly, "This trial exists as a divine cmity to punish the denizens of the Demonic Divine Realm for pushing humanity to the brink of extinction. However your efforts prevent such a cmity from happening. Not only have you saved humanity, you have also saved the demonic race as well. Therefore your reward for this trial will be truly exceptional."

    Ji Yuan was startled but joyous at the same time, "Haha, as long as there is a reward¡­"

    As he moved forward, he had suddenly thought of something else and he was grinning at Yun Chi, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.

    Then he had suddenly tossed them five saint-step divine swords from his spatial ring with a yful grin, "This is for all of you."

    Yang Mi was startled as she stared at the saint-step divine sword that was in her hands, "This¡­ this is a saint-step divine sword?! And this is for me? Are¡­ you sure?"

    She was not even a great saintess and Ji Yuan was giving her a saint-step divine sword?!

    Even Little Princess, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were shocked at the saint-step divine swords in their hands. "This is for us?!"

    Yun Chi simply pocketed it as though it was nothing unusual. Instead she was smiling, "It seems that you have quite a bit of lucky urrence in there?"

    The Lovely Empress seized the opportunity to chuckle softly, "Indeed he has. He has given us a saint-step divine sword each."

    When she had said that, Yang Mi had almost fainted on the spot as she listened with great disbelief.

    Yu Jingjing was stammering, "How did Ji Yuan get so many saint-step divine swords?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue answered for her half-sister with a beautiful smile, "He has killed many top demonic cultivators in there and looted their heritages in there¡­"

    "I was being attacked, you know." Ji Yuan interrupted weakly before he ran after the short old man and Bai Qianfeng.

    He added with a grin, "These are actually all the saint-step divine swords that I can find. However some of them are only half-step saint swords. It is just nice that I can distribute this to everyone here."

    The short old man the White Sword Monarch muttered, "You didn''t give me anything, you know."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled as she watched him left the scene before she turned around to all her sisters and to look at Yun Chi, "How should I start? This is a most interesting trial¡­"

    The Lovely Empressughed as she seized to say, "Let me tell you the story instead¡­"

    "Let me tell you the story instead. I was with Ji Yuan from the very start." Zhi Jiugong offered with a soft chuckle.

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue smiled alluringly, "I think we have better let Maiden Zhi Jiugong do the talking instead. After all, she is with Ji Yuan. We are all secondary here. Hehe¡­"

    -

    There was a shimming reflective dark portal at the end of the Great Valha Hall.

    Ji Yuan said to his old man and to Bai Qianfeng, "Guess we should walk through this portal."<novelnext></novelnext>

    As he had said that, the short old man and Bai Qianfeng nodded as they walked into the shimmering portal.

    Ji Yuan soon followed after them and he found himself in a dark spatial room.

    Heughed aloud as he asked into the dark spatial space, "So what is my reward?"

    "But this has better to be good." He could not resist putting a threat due to hundreds of years of bad habit as an arrogant golden celestial and sect master.

    An old voice croaked, "It seems that you have a great breakthrough in your sword saint attainment now and is now a Sword Immortal. Maybe, you are even a half-step Sword Deity too. However, you have a weakness and that is your profound strength."

    Ji Yuanughed as he raised his sword fingers up, "After I have be a Sword Immortal, my profound strength has also increased tremendous. I doubt that there are many cultivators that can withstand the strength of my sword fingers now."

    The old voiceughed, "You are confusing your profound power with your profound strength. I am talking about the profound strength of your inner spiritual sea. When you train your inner spiritual sea, naturally your profound strength will be stronger. You have spent too much time cultivating on your profound power with your sword¡­"

    "I am training my natural reflexes and speed too." Ji Yuan interrupted with a grin, "Therefore I can''t afford any time for cultivation."

    He wanted to say his spiritual mountains suck in meditating anyway but he had decided to keep quiet about this.

    "And also because your talent with cultivation is bad. You are not even at the genius level and you can''t cultivate well too even if you have a good spiritual mountain." The old spiritual voice chuckled.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes but he was bitterly smiling: Thanks. You have just pped my face hard. Do you have to be so frank?

    It was true that Ji Yuan hates to cultivate peacefully and he would rather shake his leg; it was actually amazing that he would actually be a great saint in the first ce too.

    Ji Yuan weakly muttered, "Enough of my weakness. So what is my reward then?"

    The old spiritual voiceughed jovially as a shining profound pill appeared in front of him, "This is the Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill. Even in the Immortal Divine Realm, this Minor Miracle Profound Pill is extremely rare. You can say that this is a 7th rank profound pill in your Celestial Realm. Taking this profound pill will increase your attainment by 1000 years."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Seriously? By 1000 years? Then what for do I need to cultivate for? I am only 500 years¡­"

    The old spiritual voiceughed, interrupting Ji Yuan. "However you need to be at least a golden saint or you may explode your inner spiritual sea. It is safer if you consume this as a great saint."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "This is a Minor Miracle Profound Pill. So there is also a Major Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill?"

    "There is but this one is even more rare. You need to be at the 9th Immortal Positioning in order to consume this and it is extremely rare even in the Immortal Divine Realm." The old spiritual voiceughed jovially.

    "Can''t you give me 10 of these Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The old spiritual voice growled, "You can only consume 1 of these Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill only once. If I have 10 then this won''t be a SS reward."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This is a SS reward?"

    He muttered, "This can''t be right? It is only for 1000 years. Some of my beloveds have already been cultivating for thousands of years¡­"

    The old spiritual voice answered a little agitated, "This is pure spiritual attainment. Your beloved can''t be cultivating for 1000 years nonstop right?"

    Ji Yuan pointed out, "They are extreme geniuses, you know."

    The old spiritual voice frowned, "I''ve suddenly realized something."

    "What is it?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The old spiritual voice said coldly, "That you actually talking a lot. Are you taking this Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill or not?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Naturally I am taking this but¡­"

    "But what?!" The old spiritual voice asked impatiently.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed his deste cherubim and his cultivation realm was increased to the upper 8th immortal positioning, "I am thinking that if I take this profound pill when I am at a higher cultivation realm then won''t the boundary of my spiritual seas be even better? Maybe I can even have some hidden benefits as well?"

    Author Note

    1. This arc has officiall ended now;)

 Chapter 631 A New Ji Yuan

    Ji Yuan was grinning when he had exited the dark spatial space of the Great Valha Hall; it was because his profound strength had indeed increased tremendous.

    He had never thought that such a profound pill could actually exist in the Immortal Realm.

    Although this Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill could only be consumed only once but this was enough for him.

    He had never felt so strong in his profound strength before.

    This profound strengthbined with his sword domains were enough to propel him to the top cultivators in the entire Celestial Realm.

    So when he had exited the Great Valha Hall at the same time as his old master the White Sword Monarch and Bai Qianfeng, he was grinning.

    Bai Qianfeng saw his smiles and asked curiously, "What did you get for your number 1 reward?"

    She was not the only ones who were curious; his old master and the other maidens were all crowding around him to ask him what was the number one reward for this trial.

    Ji Yuan pretended to act mysterious for a while before he grinned, "I''ve got a Minor Sanctorum Profound Pill."

    "What is this profound pill?"

    "What did it do?"

    "Huh? It is only a profound pill?"

    But Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were both gasping with shock when they had heard the name of this profound pill.

    Ji Yuanughed with pride as he raised his hands in front of them, "This is a profound pill that can increase a cultivator''s cultivation attainment by 1000 years."

    When he had said that, there were general disbelief.

    "Impossible¡­"

    "This doesn''t exist¡­"

    "Cultivation attainment is all pure hard work¡­"

    "Ji Yuan must be hiding his reward again¡­"

    "Tell us the truth¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Howe no one believes me when I am telling them the truth? Am I such a liar?

    Xiang Li and Anyang could not resist giggling: Yes, you are!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi were both gasping with shock; it was because they had both recognized the name of this Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill and they knew what it was.

    Yun Chi took a quiet look at Bai Qianfeng before she nodded to her; it was not convenient for Yun Chi to reveal who she was to the rest of the group, especially when the White Sword Monarch was also in their group and moreover, he was the old master of Ji Yuan.

    Bai Qianfeng said, "Even in the Immortal Realm, this is a most rare profound pill. It is actually a seventh rank profound pill and even 9th realm immortals will have difficulty making one."

    Almost everyone in the group was gasping with shock that such a profound pill could actually exist.<novelnext></novelnext>

    It is because the highest rank profound pill that can be made in the Celestial Realm was 6th rank profound pill and even then, 6th rank profound pills are all considered to be miracle profound pills; they are so rare that even one 6th rank profound pill can be considered an equivalent to a powerful heaven-step divine sword!

    And no one has ever heard of a seventh rank profound pill before.

    So this has to be a profound pill from the Immortal Realm!

    By now, even the short old man the White Sword Monarch knew that Bai Qianfeng was an immortal cultivator.

    He had no idea how a lofty immortal cultivator such as Bai Qianfeng was in their group and she was even Ji Yuan''s consort but he did not ask too much. After all, it was rude to ask the origin of an immortal within their hearing range.

    It was enough for him that Bai Qianfeng was on their side.

    But he still had something that he had kept it wrapped in his heart; it was because Bai Qianfeng had clearly exhibited the deste force of the Deste Immortals and not just the righteous force of the Righteous Immortals.

    This was something that had bothered him when he had learnt of it all of a sudden.

    And even the Immortals from the Deste Divine Realm were all bowing in front of her and had acknowledged her as the Great Abyssal Null Goddess.

    He had tried to hint to Ji Yuan and the rest of the group, including his daughter the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue but all of them, including his daughter, Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and even Ji Yuan did not even seem startled or shocked.

    Now this was a big surprise to him.

    Is he the only sane cultivator in this group?

    The more the short old man looked at Ji Yuan group and even Yun Chi, the more surprises there were in his head.

    When Bai Qianfeng had told the rest of the group about this Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill that could be found in the Immortal Realm, even Yun Chi, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and even Yu Jingjing did not seem to be surprised.

    It was because for Bai Qianfeng to point that something like this would only mean that she was not a celestial but an immortal.

    He was expecting his other daughter Yang Mi to be surprised or expressed shock why Bai Qianfeng would know something like this.

    But instead, she did not seem to be concerned.

    Naturally he did not know that the other maidens had already shared with Yang Mi and even Yu Jingjing that Bai Qianfeng''s origin and how she had met Ji Yuan in their gossips.

    Now the short old man felt like sharing with Yun Chi because he felt that she was the only cultivator that shared in his belief of ying the Death God Mingwang and that she could at least understand his concerns.

    But Yun Chi did not seem to be surprised that Bai Qianfeng was actually such a lofty immortal.

    In fact, the short old man felt like he was the only sane cultivator in this group!

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had patted his old man with a grin and said, "You know old man. It feels weird that I am sharing this with all my consorts but you are the only outcast in this group¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. In this arc, I wanted to write about the perspective of the demonic cultivators when the Divine Cmity had suddenly arrived in the form of the Golden Celestials. Although the start looks terrible on the golden celestial''s perspective but there are always two sides to a coin.

 Chapter 632 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (1)

    A tall yellow mountain was seen among the horizon.

    This ce was the upper area of the final trial.

    However a powerful barrier was blocking the passage of this tall yellow mountain and a ck stele in front indicated that a group of cultivators were required tobine their profound power together in order to enter this passage.

    A group of thirty cultivators were hence frowning in front of this passage as they waited for more powerful cultivators to arrive.

    Soon they spotted a group of ten beautiful maidens and a rugged cultivator arriving at the scene.

    When they saw this rugged cultivator, most of them had a disdain in their golden eyes for he was really rugged.

    Several of them immediately muttered, "Ten females and a male. That male must be the servant to this group."

    Many of the cultivators in this group were nodding or agreeing with this conclusion.

    This rugged cultivator was quickly making his way to their group and he was grinning as he waved loudly with a shout. "Yo!"

    Many of the cultivators were humming softly, "He must have been sent by his group as a scout to check us and this vicinity out. For sure, he has a low status in his group."

    Many of the cultivators in this group were young masters of their celestial ns and they all had a lofty status.

    That rugged cultivator was actually Ji Yuan and when he saw that there was a group of cultivators in front, he had immediately made his way to greet them.

    The maidens were telling him that there was no hurry but Ji Yuan was happy to see so many cultivators after some time that he was so excited that he had hastily sped ahead.

    As for the short old man which was his old master, he was scouting in another part of the vicinity and was not in the group.

    Ji Yuanughed as he hastily greeted the group of 30 cultivators, "Fellow dao cultivators, greeting to all of you. I am Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    One haughty cultivator named Zhan Wuji frowned, "You are from the Deste Celestial Fraternity? So where is your beard? Did you lose your beard during your hasty breakthrough."

    Many of the cultivators wereughing jovially at Ji Yuan now.

    "Where is your beard?"

    "You look like a poor cultivator¡­"

    "Can''t you get a more decent robe?"

    "He is carrying a wooden scabbard on his back?"

    "This wooden scabbard looks most ordinary¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned at the mention of his wooden scabbard; he had given up his wooden box after his wooden scabbard was able to absorb the profound power of his wooden box and could conceal its identity as an immortal profound treasure. At this moment, his wooden scabbard looked like an ordinary scabbard and was not any profound treasure.

    He protested, "Actually my wooden scabbard is most extraordinary and I am able to conceal quite a number of divine swords in it."

    When the rest of the cultivators had heard him, they were allughing nonstop and many were swaying as theyughed aloud.

    "What did he just say?"

    "He says that his wooden scabbard is a profound treasure?"

    "He actually says his wooden scabbard contains many divine swords¡­"

    "If he can afford a divine sword, why can''t he afford a good robe?"

    Ji Yuan said with a straight line, "As for my beard, I have purposely shaved it as it is no longer the in-thing in the Deste Celestial Fraternity anymore."

    This was a tant lie of course.

    Zhan Wujiughed as he mmed his divine sword onto the ground, "Rubbish! I''ve just met several cultivators from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they still pride their beards dearly. So this Ji Yuan, what is your cultivation realm?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes with a startled look as he thought; there goes my story¡­

    But heughed aloud, "I am Great Saint Ji Yuan. Peaked Great Saint."

    When he had dered his cultivation realm, half of the cultivators were startled; did they hear correctly that this Ji Yuan was actually a peaked great saint?!

    If he was really a peaked great saint then many of them must greet him as their senior and they had actually just mocked him.

    Zhan Wuji who was also a great saint but he was just a middle tier great saint, began to look at him with a look of disbelief, "You are really a Peaked Great Saint?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I am not only a Peaked Great Saint but I am also a Sword Immortal. Maybe I am even a half-step Sword Deity."

    When he had said that he was a Sword Immortal, many of the cultivators were allughing out loud as though this was the funniest thing that they had ever heard.

    Ji Yuan raised his sword fingers and immediately, dozens of swords from all the cultivators were all vibrating violently and some of the swords were even flying andnding in front of Ji Yuan!

    Many of the cultivators were now using their profound strength to contain their swords and Zhan Wuji had even use his sword spirit to suppress his divine sword, "This is impossible¡­ I have already divine harmonized with my divine sword¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "I have only used a little of my profound strength. Do you now believe that I am a Sword Immortal?"

    Zhan Wuji hummed coldly as he stared with equal coldness at Ji Yuan, "There is only one Sword Immortal and he is my Ancestor Patriarch the White Sword Monarch. How dare you im to be a Sword Immortal in front of him!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Oh you know the White Sword Monarch? In front of him, I am his grand daddy too."

    Zhan Wuji was flustered with rage as he raised his divine sword. At the same time, ten of the cultivators were also raising their divine swords with teething rage as well.

    "I am Great Saint Zhan Wuji and I am also a Sword Saint of the White Sword Celestial n. I am afraid that you have offended the wrong cultivator today¡­"

    "Zhan Wuji! What are you doing?" An old voice had suddenly appeared from the horizon and it was the White Sword Monarch!

    Zhan Wuji was startled but he was immediately rejoicing in his heart.

    He and many of the cultivators were immediately greeting, "Our great respects to our Ancestor Patriarch the White Sword Monarch!"

    Zhan Wuji was immediately smirking to Ji Yuan, "Our Ancestor Patriarch is not only a Sword Immortal but he is also extremely ancient. Today you will learn the price of insulting our Ancestor Patriarch¡­"

    "Ji Yuan is my sessor and he is also the sessor to my White Sword Celestial n. Quickly pay your homage to him." The short old man had suddenly interrupted Zhan Wuji unhappily.

    Zhan Wuji was shocked as he stared at Ji Yuan as he stammered, "But he¡­ he says¡­"

    The short old man frowned, "I''ve heard him alright. He is like the loudest kid here. He is indeed my grand daddy and a Sword Immortal too. Now pay your homage to him!"

    Zhan Wuji was shocked as he looked at Ji Yuan who was grinning and also shrugging his shoulders as though he did not care¡­

    But he was quickly bowing with his sword fingers at Ji Yuan and so did the rest of the cultivators from the White Sword Celestial n, "Our humble respect to Great Saint Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he interrupted them, "Haha, you are all making me awkward. There are other cultivators in this ce. So what is this trial that we have here?"

    This time round, none of the cultivators dared to show him any disrespect.

    Especially when Ji Yuan had pointed to the group of ten maidens behind him as he chuckled, "They are all my consorts."

    Many of the cultivators were dumbfounded by Ji Yuan...

    ---------------------

    Author Note

    1. Ji Yuan and his group has now reached the upper area of the final trial now.

 Chapter 633 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (2)

    Ji Yuan was now examining the powerful barrier in front of him with his divine sense. As he did so, so did the members of his group.

    He was naturally with his old man the White Sword Monarch and 10 of the female cultivators of his group. Or rather, these female cultivators were all the members of his harem.

    Also with him were 35 other cultivators and many of them were from the Endless Celestial Fraternity and were even in the White Sword Celestial n.

    This caused the White Sword Monarch tough jovially, "It seems that I am not so lonely after all."

    Right now, everyone was examining the sealed barrier in front of them.

    Yun Chi smiled and said nonchntly, "It seems that the profound strength of the cultivators is necessary to open this sealed barrier. The number of cultivators actually did not matter."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she agreed too, "That''s right."

    Zhan Wuji and the rest of the cultivators were suddenly quiet; it was not because they were suddenly humbled by Ji Yuan or the White Sword Monarch but the presence of the ten extremely beautiful maidens were too overwhelming; they were just too enticing and enchanting together that all the 36 male cultivators were all looking in disbelief at their presence.

    Moreover this Ji Yuan had imed that he was the lord consort of these ten maidens!

    How could this Ji Yuan be so lucky?

    As they watched and listened, Ji Yuan had suddenly said. "Since it is profound strength that we need in order for us to check the trial inside, why don''t I force my way through with my profound power of my sword arts? This will work just as good, am I right?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "That may be so¡­"

    "Then I shall do it¡­" Ji Yuan had immediately interrupted with a soft chuckle.

    "But this is actually unnecessary." Yun Chi interrupted him with a wry smile as she tapped on the sealed barrier gently and all of a sudden, the sealed barrier in front of them had suddenly dissipated!

    Everyone was startled, including the White Sword Monarch.

    "What did you just do?" The White Sword Monarch looked curiously at Yun Chi; he was actually thinking of forcing his way through this sealed barrier with Ji Yuan if thebined profound strength of all the cultivators were still not enough.

    Yun Chi smiled nonchntly, "Nothing really. I happen to know a thing or two about unraveling sealed barriers. Since this trial is in the final section, it may be interesting to explore the trial here. So let''s go in?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard Yun Chi; he knew very well the depth of her profound strength.

    But he said nothing and instead he was smiling as he said to the maidens in his group. "Let''s go in!"

    Soon everyone walked into the valley of darkness but they were all cautious.

    It was because they could sense the presence of numerous powerful arrays in this ce; for all they know, the trial may have already started!

    Zhan Wuji said as they walked cautiously in the darkness, "We have more than forty cultivators here. Do we need to be so afraid? Moreover we have Great Saint Ji Yuan and the White Sword Monarch here."

    The short old man frowned at him, "It is better to be safe¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin, "Yea. I totally agree with this¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan to walk in front and said weakly, "Ji Yuan! Stop thinking too much! Safe or not safe, we will handle this for you."

    Many of the maidens including Bai Qianfeng were nodding weakly as they looked awkwardly at Ji Yuan.

    For those that had been with Ji Yuan for some time, there was a tendency for him to be in a safe mode and when he did his super cautious mode, the whole journey would end up being extremely slow and even awkward.

    It was not that Ji Yuan was wrong in drawing the cautious conclusion but the maidens had thought that with Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and even the White Sword Monarch around, things would not go too terribly wrong.

    Ji Yuan muttered as he protested weakly, "This is my first time in the final section of the final trial and this is the first trial. Therefore I should be as cautious as possible¡­"

    Yun Chi had suddenly pushed himself forward as she whispered in his ears with her divine whisper profound art, "At this moment, you are our mascot. So you ought to act as awesome as possible."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he wasughing softly as he stood upright with righteousness and said to the rest of the cultivators that were all moving in the same direction. "Follow me! Haha¡­"

    But at the same time, he was whispering to Yun Chi. "Erm, I have an uneasy feeling about this ce. I can walk in front but erm, try to keep me safe."<novelnext></novelnext>

    Yun Chi giggled softly, "I won''t let my lord dies in this ce."

    When she was giggling, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all giggling softly behind.

    The Lovely Empress could not resist adding, "Ji Yuan is no hero of mine!"

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all giggling softly.

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently, "This sounds a little suspiciousing from the Death God."

    Yun Chi quickly disyed an unhappy look at Ji Yuan as she kicked him to move faster; she had heard him alright even though it was really soft. It was because she was the one that had given him his deste cherubim and through the connected spirits, she was able to discern Ji Yuan''s almost incoherent protest.

    Soon Ji Yuan and the rest of the cultivators hade to another section of the mysterious valley and there was a ck stele in front of them.

    All the cultivators were immediately probing with their divine senses on the ck stele to discern the messages that were on it.

    It read;

    S+ Rank Trial.

    This is a valley of darkness and death.

    At least 8 cultivators in each team are required to enter the Valley of the Darkness.

    In the Valley of the Darkness, cultivators are not going to teach their sons no more, and sons will be cowards.

    The sons will search for something without knowing what they search for, insecurity and doubt will torture them for the answers that their father cultivators have already known.

    Women will be like men, and men will be like women.

    If you are the courageous, you may enter this trial and be the beacon of light in the Valley of the Darkness.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned at the message of the ck stele, "S plus trial? This is between a S and a SS trial. And what is this riddle that is written on it?"

    Ling Feiyue had be thoughtful all of a sudden, "We need 8 cultivators at least for this trial? This means that this is a major trial and a tough trial."

    The short old man stroked his long white beard before saying, "Although I do not understand this riddle but it is actually a warning for us to leave this trial."

    Zhan Wuji took this opportunity to tter the White Sword Monarch, "Ancient Patriarch is indeed right. However I am willing to be this beacon of light that will lead us to shine in the darkness."

    Many of the cultivators were chorusing the same; they were not going to give up so easily especially when they were already here.

    Ji Yuan who was rubbing his chin had suddenly clicked his thumb and said excitingly, "I think that I''ve finally figured out this strange riddle!"

    The White Sword Monarch, the maidens in the group, Zhan Wuji and the rest of the cultivators were now turning with eager anticipations as they looked at Ji Yuan.

    Everyone seemed to be saying: What is it then?

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he said with a wry smile as he looked at the White Sword Monarch, "I don''t have a father cultivator so I do not know. Anyone here is a father?"

    Everyone: ¡­

    The White Sword Monarch growled immediately, "Why are you looking at me like this? I have only daughters and I don''t have a son."

    Author Note:

    1. Been rather sicktely ~__~

 Chapter 634 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (3)

    Ji Yuan and everyone naturally opted to continue; it was because none of them were quitters or else they would not be appearing in the upper section of the final trial.

    Moreover, the possible enticing rewards of a S plus Trial was too tempting for anyone to actually resist.

    So they continued into the Valley of the Darkness.

    They continued for a while before they were startled to see a group of cultivators in front of them; they seemed to be waiting for their group of 8s but they had only 7.

    Ji Yuan was astonished and startled for he had recognized all 7 of them.

    They were actually Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan; when they saw that it was Ji Yuan and his group, they were grasping, "It is Ji Yuan¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was looking very pale but he managed to mutter, "It is that rascal Ji Yuan¡­"

    Mo Bei was roaring withughter, "Haha junior Ji Yuan is here."

    The other group was also startled and they were Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Leng Qiuyue and Shui Xisi.

    Shui Xisi had immediately ran to Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle, "Why, this isn''t Ji Yuan? Why aren''t you dead yet?"

    Ji Yuan was actually overjoyed to see Shui Xisi again and he wasughing jovially, "If you are not dead, why should I be dead?"

    The Lovely Empress looked a little annoyed when she saw that Shui Xisi was greeting Ji Yuan in such an intimate manner so she said unhappily, "Who is she? Ji Yuan, you can ignore her."

    Shui Xisi looked annoyed as well, "Who is this maiden? What is your name? How dare you be disrespectful to a great saintess?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "Weird. I am a great saintess too. So why should I be respectful to you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed behind the Lovely Empress as she stepped forward, "You dare to be disrespectful to my sister?"

    Shui Xisi had caught sight of the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Yang Mi which she did not recognize and turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "Ji Yuan, who are they?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "You are all friends so there is no need to quarrel¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng had also stepped forward and said, "Sisi is a close friend of ours."

    Even Ling Feiyue had stepped forward to defend Shui Xisi, "We are all friends here¡­"

    "Harem, you mean?" Shui Xisi expressed with disbelief as she looked at Ji Yuan. "What has exactly happened while I was gone for a while?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "It is a long story. Haha¡­"

    "Brother Ji Yuan." Lu Qingyun had also stepped forward to greet him hastily, "It has been some time since we havest met."

    Ji Yuan was only too d to be find something to distract himself, "Brother Lu Qingyun! I see that you have finally found Maiden Leng Qingyue."

    Leng Qiuyue looked a little awkward as she shyly said, "Thanks to you, I''ve finally found Brother Qingyun¡­"

    JI Yuan was immediately gesturing with a loud chuckle, "It is my pleasure to help you. Haha¡­"

    He had actually met Leng Qiuyue on the lower level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. At that time, she had mentioned that she was looking for Lu Qingyun.

    Lu Qingyun was also looking a little awkward as he bowed with his hands respectfully, "This will be forever in my debt for you, Brother Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Not at all and don''t bother about this¡­"

    Shui Xisi who was now surrounded by her old friends, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing wereughing jovially. "This is probably the only good deed that he has ever done in his life."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Behind Shui Xisi, Fan Yuqing was smiling nonchntly and even yfully; after all, no one will actually knows what the Devil Goddess is thinking about.<novelnext></novelnext>

    Shui Xisi looked a little flushed as she turned to say to Fan Yuqing, "Sister Saintess Yuqing, may I join Ji Yuan''s group?"

    Fan Yuqing raised her lovely eyebrows, "Then we won''t have enough cultivators in our team. Do we have anyone to join us then?"

    Shui Xisiughed as she looked at the other 30 odds cultivators that had gathered, "There are so many cultivators in this ce. Hehe."

    As they conversed, Yun Chi was actually looking into their direction.

    It was because she knew that Shui Xisi had a most extraordinary background but she was more cautious of Fan Yuqing; it was because Fan Yuqing had given her a most uneasy feeling. This was not the first time that they had met in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but the second time.

    Fan Yuqing had given her a nonchnt feel but Yun Chi knew that Fan Yuqing was highly intelligent and she was also studying her as well.

    Because Shui Xisi and Fan Yuqing seemed to be so close, she could garner that she too, had an immortal background.

    As for Lu Qingyun, he was the most dangerous and she had caught Lu Qingyun''s look on her; it was not because he had admired her great beauty behind her upper mask but he was appraising her discreetly as well.

    It seemed to her that the Celestial Fraternity still have many extreme characters and many of them are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for their trials.

    It was no wonder why the Great Demon God had waited for this opportunity to seal off the passage from the Immortal Realm to the Celestial Realm.

    The veryst time that she had met them, Shui Xisi had suggested to them that they paraded the Death God naked after they had killed him. However for her to suggest that, this would mean that both Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing were extremely formidable.

    Sometimes, the cultivators did not need to appraise their enemies through their profound animus. By instinct, they would already know that the other cultivator was dangerous.

    Right now, Yun Chi, Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing were at this stage of appraising each other.

    Yun Chi was extremely curious to know Fan Yuqing''s background as she thought: Is she a daughter of the Great Goddess Alice as well?

    Her thoughts were interrupted when Feng Minyue and Fan Yuqing were embracing each other warmly and they were smiling jovially.

    Fan Yuqing giggled softly as she stole a look at Ji Yuan, "My Sister Saintess Minyue, it seems to me that you have finally fallen in love? If you continue to be single then others might think that we have a most unusual rtionship."

    Feng Minyue smiled gently, "Sister Saintess Yuqing really knows how to tease me. Yes¡­"

    She began to lower her head shyly and as she did so, she had stolen a nce at Ji Yuan. "He is my lord consort now."

    Fan Yuqing gasped softly with a little disbelief, "This is a little too fast. He is already my brother-inw and now he is twice over¡­

    Then she saw the look that was on Shui Xisi''s countenance, "Maybe thrice over. Heehee¡­"

    Shui Xisi protested immediately with a soft chuckle, "Never. He is just a yboy rascal!"

    Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were too awkward to say anything; it was because the loud lovemaking sessions between Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan were so loud that everyone knows about their rtionship and they had always tried to pretend that they were friends.

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially as he looked yfully at Shui Xisi''s slim and enticing figure; he was just too happy to see Sisi again.

    He chuckled loudly, "Before we enter the trial, I think we should start off with a tale of our journey here so far."

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she looked at the Lovely Empress, Yang Mi, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Tell me how you''ve met these maidens..."

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, "Look at me, I''ve forgotten to introduce all of you here."

    Xiao Muhan interrupted weakly, "Don''t forget about your good friend here..."

    Author Note:

    1. The team required is 8 and not 7.

 Chapter 635 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (4)

    There were 7 shimmering dark blue portals in front of them. Once a group had been formed, they would be free to make their choices.

    Many of the cultivators were already hastily making their choices and forming their groups as they bade the White Sword Monarch good tidings.

    This included Zhan Wuji.

    As for Ji Yuan, he wasughing with Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan as he was interested to know what had happened since they hadst parted.

    Xiao Muhan said miserably, "You know what has happened to me. So do you think need to ask?"

    Mo Bei was asking Ji Yuan, "You have really went to the Bliss City and have met three beautiful maidens there?"

    He was casting a look at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    Ji Yuan did not deny this.

    Mo Bei pulled Ji Yuan to him and whispered a word of cautious to him, "Are you sure that they are clean? You ought to be careful of the maidens that are in the Bliss City."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately, "Of course they are!"

    Qin Shuang who was with Mo Bei was smiling, "I am sure that Hero Ji Yuan did not mind. What is the point of bring up the past?"

    When Mo Bei had heard her, he wasughing. "That is right. That is right."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially too, "I am so d that we have all met in this ce. Haha, it must be destiny that we have met in this ce."

    Just as he was about to look for Lu Qingyun and introduced his friends to him, Lu Qingyun seemed to be turning his attention to the entrance of the valley.

    As he did so, Fan Yuqing was also looking in that direction.

    Feng Minyue was gasping as she walked together with Fan Yuqing, "It is her?"

    Ji Yuan was curious as he thought: Who is she?

    He was immediately when he saw that it was Ye Jing the Great Heroine that had suddenly appeared at the back.

    When Ji Yuan had broken down the sealed barrier, it would remain open for a while so that other cultivators may yet enter into the Valley of the Darkness.

    And Ye Jing had found the unhindered entrance to this trial.

    She was gasping when she saw Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing and Feng Minyue.

    At the same time, the Lovely Empress had a look of guilt when she saw that it was Ye Jing.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were no less guilty too.

    Ji Yuan was about to step forward to greet Ye Jing when she was suddenly crying and in the next instant, she was in Lu Qingyun''s embrace.

    Lu Qingyun looked a little awkward as he said gently, "It is alright. You are safe now with us. We have finally found you at longst¡­"

    Feng Minyue, Fan Yuqing and Leng Qiuyue were allforting Ye Jing as well.

    Ji Yuan awkwardly decided not to interrupt their precious moments but he was d for them even though he still harbored a little shred of a dream for the Great Heroine Ye Jing.

    He turned to look at Mo Bei, the short old man which was the White Sword Monarch, Xiao Muhan, Yu Chi and the rest of the maidens. "I guess that the next step that we are going to do is to form a team, am I right?"

    Mo Bei grinned and said, "I guess that Maiden Feng Minyue may not be joining us this time round. As the other group is short of a few cultivators, Xiao Muhan, Maiden Qin Shuang and I can join them over there."<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Then they will have 8 in a team. This will probably do. We can now form 2 groups to venture into the Valley of the Darkness."

    But his countenance was still full of ponder and this caused Mo Bei to ask him curiously, "Junior, haste is a necessary. Let''s talk about our experiencester. I am sure that you want to talk over this over a drink for two. Maybe even for 3 days and 3 nights."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is so true. Let''s wait until they have finished their reunion and then we will tell them our ns. But before that, we need to consider the riddle that is in this ce first."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "What riddle?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "We can certainly ignore it."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at Xiao Muhan and the puzzled looks that were on the maidens'' faces and he began to say solemnly, "There is a riddle in the ck stele that we have not deciphered. Am I right?"

    Many of the maidens including Mo Bei and the White Sword Monarch were nodding lightly.

    Ling Feiyue smiled alluringly as she took in a quick breath, "That may be so but it does not look the least helpful. We are cultivators so we can think of thatter when we are inside the trial."

    Ji Yuan said righteousness, "Well, I''ve happened to decipher the message now."

    When he had said that, everyone was startled and began to look at Ji Yuan with an earnest look.

    "What is it?" Shui Xisi giggled. "Stop beating about the bush and tell us what you know."

    "Yes, what is this?" The Lovely Empress had quickly said too, because she had virtually treated Shui Xisi as her rival.

    Ji Yuanughed with some pride; he had always felt a sense of awesomeness whenever he could get Shui Xisi to be hooked to his tales. And even the Lovely Empress sounded impressed by him.

    The same however could not be said for the rest of the maidens, especially Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess who only knew him too well.

    Ji Yuan exined as he raised his voice, as though he was afraid that Lu Qingyun''s group could not be able to hear him. "I am actually a father. I have a son with my Yuluo, Sword Saintess Yuluo. The riddle says that in the Valley of the Darkness, cultivators are not going to teach their sons no more, and sons will be cowards. The sons will search for something without knowing what they search for, insecurity and doubt will torture them for the answers that their father cultivators have already known."

    "So?" Xiao Muhan asked with a frown.

    Ji Yuanughed, "I seem to have fitted this bill. I have actually never taught my son anything."

    The short old man aka the White Sword Monarch covered his face before he said weakly, "There are plenty of irresponsible fathers like us here."

    When he had said that, Yang Mi and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both smiling weakly.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Hear the next line of the riddle. Women will be like men, and men will be like women. If you are the courageous, you may enter this trial and be the beacon of light in the Valley of the Darkness."

    He quickly added, "Men will be like women. I have lost my beard. So I am thinking that this fits me¡­"

    "I am thinking that we should quickly enter the trial first." Yun Chi interrupted Ji Yuan with a resigned look.

    Even Ling Feiyue was muttering weakly, "No one other than you are thinking about the riddle in that ck stele¡­."

    "I can''t believe that you are actually thinking about that riddle till now." Bai Qianfeng was sighing softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered a weak protest, "Maybe it is important. You know¡­"

    ---------

    Author Note:

    1. This chapter is sort of a happy ending for Leng Qiuyue and Ye Jing for The-Good-Nothing Cultivator.

 Chapter 636 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (5)

    The remaining cultivators in the vicinity had quickly decided to be split into two main groups.

    Lu Qingyun would lead his group which consisted of Fan Yuqing, Feng Minyue, Ye Jing, Leng Qiuyue, Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan and Qin Shuang.

    Ji Yuan would lead the second group which consisted of Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Yun Chi and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Feng Minyue looked a little apologetic as she looked at Ji Yuan, "We shall part temporary for the time being. I have to be with my sister saintesses."

    JI Yuan smiled weakly, "Don''t worry. I understand."

    He had perfectly understood; it was because Feng Minyue was actually from Fan Yuqing and Lu Qingyun group when they had first met. And it their reunion was long overdue.

    Feng Minyue nodded gently at his response and she was flushing with shyness; it was because as she said this to Ji Yuan, she saw that Fan Yuqing was giggling behind her and Ye Jing was also watching her with amazement that she had given her heart to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was actually feeling a little awkward as well and he tried to distract everyone by turning to Xiao Muhan andughed, "Are you sure that you don''t want to go with me? After all, we are the best of friends."

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "You just want me to be in your group so that I will be envy of you. Therefore I rather not. Also, you know that I am currently in a terrible condition."

    Ji Yuanughed silently: As a depraved ve, you mean? Don''t worry, I shall find you a cure, my friend.

    Mo Bei wasughing jovially, "Well, I don''t mind being in your group, junior."

    Ji Yuan ceased his smiles immediately: Actually I do mind a little¡­

    But heughed to say, "You have to take care of my friend Xiao Muhan here and also the other group did not have 8 in their group. Since you are with Maiden Qin Shuang, I presume that the two of you will be together in a group. Unfortunately for my group, it is a little too big."

    Mo Bei looked a little disappointed as he looked weakly at Ji Yuan while thinking: You rascal. You can''t even be bothered to decline me politely?

    When Ji Yuan had said that, many of the maidens in his group were all giggling behind him.

    Mo Bei grumbled softly, "Well, see you inside the trial then."

    Ji Yuanughed as he reminded him, "Senior, remember the riddles. Good tidings!"

    When Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan, Lu Qingyun and the rest had picked a portal of their choice and had entered a dark blue portal, Shui Xisi giggled and said to Ji Yuan. "You are not serious about that riddle, right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned with a sheepish look, "Naturally I am serious."

    All the other maidens were muttered, "He is serious. Let''s hope he isn''t serious about it."

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she gave Ji Yuan a wicked look that seemed to see through his very soul which caused Ji Yuan to have an awkward shiver.

    Among all the maidens here, only Shui Xisi was able to tell that Ji Yuan was not serious and he was just randomly suggesting a random idea.

    It was because Shui Xisi had been living a life of deception with her Sister Feifei aka Jiajia or Fang Zhenfei. And she had even deceived her entire celestial n on who she really was; in their eyes, she was an old granny but instead she was just a young cultivator.

    Like her Sister Feifei, she was a born Xuantian and when she was 13, she was already a golden celestial. Her growth in her cultivation was as phenomenon as her sister and was only slightly worse.

    And her mother consort had given her an immortal sword, which was the heritage sword of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice for her own protection. Most of the time, she had kept the real profound powers of this immortal sword a secret.

    With this immortal sword, she was able to conceal her true strength from the others.

    The only two persons that knew of her true strength were actually her Sister Feifei and Sister Fan Yuqing the Devil Goddess.

    Although she shared the same father as her Sister Fan Yuqing, and their father was the Great God Pangu the true sovereign of the Immortal Divine Realm, they had different mothers.<novelnext></novelnext>

    Fan Yuqing was the daughter of the Great Goddess Fantian and the Great Goddess Fantian was the most powerful goddess of the Immortal Realm and she was even above the Great Goddess Celestial Alice.

    By nature, Fan Yuqing was extremely talented in her cultivation. She may bezier than even herself but no one will actually dare to say that she was inferior to her or to her Sister Feifei.

    That was why her Sister Feifei had said that with Fan Yuqing around, she may have a chance to kill the Death God Mingwang. But she would need Fan Yuqing''s help.

    However there was now one little problem now.

    Shui Xisi hadpletely put her mission aside and had joined Ji Yuan''s group instead. And moreover, she did not try to persuade Fan Yuqing to join her group because she felt too awkward knowing that Fan Yuqing was there to gossip about her.

    And Fan Yuqing was infamous as a gossiper; in no time, what Shui Xisi would do, she would be renowned throughout both the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm.

    This was something that she had wanted to avoid.

    She was actually thinking: With Bai Qianfeng and Ji Yuan around, surely I have a good chance of killing the Death God myself?

    There was another an old man that called himself the White Sword Monarch. From her intel, she knew that he was a half-step Sword Immortal and was extremely formidable.

    Surely they would stand a good chance to kill the Death God?

    If Yun Chi knows that she was plotting to kill her, she may vomit blood immediately. But unfortunately, only Bai Qianfeng and Ji Yuan know of Yun Chi''s true identity now. And of course, Xiang Li and Anyang. But as they were spirit entities in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, Xiang Li and Anyang were not counted.

    All of a sudden, she remembered that there was a Maiden Dream Mist too but where was she now?

    So Shui Xisi could not resist asking Ji Yuan and the maidens and she was smiling, "I don''t see Maiden Dream Mist anywhere now. Where is she? Has she finally left the group?"

    When she had mentioned Maiden Dream Mist, Ji Yuan, all the rest of the maidens and even the White Sword Monarch were all sighing immediately.

    She was startled and asked curiously, "What is wrong?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Erm, I''ve forgotten that you are not around. If I tell you that she is the Great Beyond Goddess, will you believe me?"

    Shui Xisi was startled and there was a look of disbelief in her golden eyes, "You are not teasing me?"

    Ling Feiyue weakly said, "You''ve better believed it. You can''t believe how formidable she really is. Luckily we didn''t offend her or something."

    Shui Xisi was stammering now as she looked at Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan, "Does insulting her counts as an offense against her?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Don''t look at me like this. How do I know? I have insulted her more than you do and I am still alive, right?"

    Shui Xisi stared at Ji Yuan before muttering weakly, "You don''t look at all convincing."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Honestly, I have no idea what the Great Beyond Goddess is thinking."

    As they discussed about the Great Beyond Goddess, Yun Chi had a mixed look on her countenance. It was because the Great Beyond Goddess had spared her life and had even given the emperor-step sword back to her.

    She asked quietly to herself: Why did she spare me? It is obvious that she knows who I am¡­

    All of a sudden her daughter in her womb had given her a soft kick and she was muttering: Mummy, you are thinking of that big sister? I seem to have remembered her but I can''t remember the details.

    Unknown to Yun Chi, it was her unborn daughter that had aroused the Great Beyond Goddess'' interest through this miraculous birth and she had awakened via Xiang Li in the Celestial Realm.

 Chapter 637 Murong Yue The Eternal Night (1)

    Just before Ji Yuan had led his group into the shimmering dark blue portal, the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch began to warn him. "Are you thinking that this is a trial that is easier than even the Great Valha Halls Trial? Then you are wrong. No trials are easy especially the ones at the final section."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Well, I didn''t say so."

    The short old man said solemnly, "Good if you think this way. Have you not noticed that the trials here involved visiting all the worlds of cultivation except for the Immortal Realm? And that we must obey thews of that ce. Therefore we must always be careful. And don''t forget that we have not killed the Death God Mingwang yet."

    Ji Yuan weaklyugh as he stole a nce at a nonchnt Yun Chi, "Haha¡­ sure, I will be careful."

    "Good!" The short old man said.

    Ji Yuan put his hands on his face as he disyed a miserable look, "As long as I don''t get send to the lower mortal realms, I am actually fine with anything."

    Shui Xisi giggled when she had heard him, "Be careful for what you have wished for."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When he had finished speaking, Ji Yuan began to led the rest of his group into the shimmering dark blue portal.

    As they entered into the shimmering blue portal, Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng could not help sighing, "The mortal cultivators are just too irritating¡­."

    The short old man frowned behind them with a short curse, "What sort of an example are you setting for your group?"

    Then he began to shake his head and muttered, "Hopefully it is not the mortal realms¡­"

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Zhi Jiugong, Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    But as they entered into the shimmering blue portal, they too were shaking their heads and praying that it would not be the lower mortal realm because there were simply too many restrictions in there!

    -

    -

    -

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth;

    At the Mt Eons Firmament;

    A female demonic cultivator had quietly descended upon the mountains of the Eons Firmament and she had a haughty look.

    There was a reason for her haughtiness; it was because she was the Number 2 warrior of the Dark Demon God and she was also called Murong Yue the Eternal Night.

    She looked human except for her elfin ears and she carried a celestial-step sword with a ck edge.

    In actuality, she was not supposed to be here but she was amused that Number 5, Yao Hong the Raging Fire had actually been defeated by a mere celestial.

    This was such a shame to immortal cultivators such as them!

    The top 5 numbers of the Dark Demon God were all immortal cultivators that had followed the Dark Demon God for a long time and had followed him to the Celestial Realm.

    In the presence of the others, they were simply known as mere ''Numbers''.

    However this was just a guise for them to observe their enemies, especially the factions of the Deste Dragon God and the Great Death God.

    Murong Yue was at the 9th rank upper immortal positioning and she had a disdain look at everyone except for Number 1. Even Number 5, Yao Hong who was a middle 9th rank middle immortal cultivator had a vast gap with her.

    In the Celestial Realm, Yao Hong''s cultivation profound strength was suppressed at the 8th cultivation profound strength and so was Murong Yue.<novelnext></novelnext>

    However Murong Yue was at the peak of the 8th cultivation profound strength and she could even disy her 8th rank profound arts. This was a major difference between them in the cultivation realm.

    The reason why she was here today was to meet Saintess Fang Zhenfei who could even kill the Deste Dragon God himself and sent the fighters of the Evil Cultivation Pce packing away.

    Right now, due to the death of the Deste Dragon God, the faction of the Deste Dragon God was now submissive to the Dark Demon God now.

    Both the Deste Dragon God and the Dark Demon God had their own factions in the Celestial Realm except for the Great Death God Mingwang who preferred to do his own kills on his own.

    To be honest, she was not afraid of this Saintess Fang Zhenfei that had killed the Deste Dragon God as she believed that this was due to a unexined fluke. But she was afraid of Number 1. Number 1 was Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    Although Ding Xiaoxiao had a fragile nickname but she was anything but that. In the Deste Divine Realm, she was a peak immortal and she had once fought with 3 of the Citadel Sovereign Lords of the Ancient Fortress to a standstill. This was a terrifying testimonial to her true strength.

    None of the lower numbers in the Dark Demon God dared to mess up with her and she had no friends. Even the Dark Demon God did not dare to use her easily.

    She had once overheard a conversation between Ding Xiaoxiao and the Dark Demon God; Ding Xiaoxiao had said, "You can only use me 3 times. The first is that I will follow you to the Celestial Realm. The second time is that I will be your loyal servant to defend you in your dark divine pce. So what is the 3rd time?"

    However the Dark Demon God had merely said, "This is not the time yet."

    Murong Yue was startled that Ding Xiaoxiao could actually talk to the Dark Demon God in such a nonchnt manner and did not fear their True God.

    Even in the Deste Divine Realm, the background of Ding Xiaoxiao was a mystery and she had no friends or enemies. The real reason why she had no enemies was because all her enemies had been killed by her.

    None of the numbers wanted to befriend her and they had all feared her.

    As Murong Yue walked in the darkness of the mountains, she was startled to see two beautiful maidens had appeared with their swords to interrupt her.

    One of the beautiful maidens was only at the 6th cultivation realm and was a low level cultivator in her sight while the other one was a 7th realm cultivator.

    She merely smiled, "So I''ve been discovered?"

    The beautiful low level cultivator said quietly, "I am Fairy Ye Chengxi and is a golden supremacy."

    The other beautiful cultivator said slowly, "I am Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo. A saintess."

    Murong Yueughed softly as she yed with her sword, "Oh? None of you are at the great saintess level and you have dared to stand in my way? Or are there more of you around in this ce?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said, "There are only the two of us. We have sensed your wayward sword intentions and havee to intercept you."

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo hummed softly, "And who are you? Or are you a coward that did not dare to reveal your name?"

    Murong Xue smiled faintly and there was a killing intention in her golden eyes, "You may call me Number 2. I am the Number 2 of the Great Demon God''s personal guards. I have heard that a few ants had recently defeated Number 5 and even killed the Deste Dragon God. Hence I am here to take a closer look."

    She had disyed her ring red aura and the intense pressure of her profound animus was immediately upon the vicinity. In this instant, she had revealed her profound strength at the 8th immortal positioning and any cultivators below the 8th immortal positioning realm would surely be afraid, especially the lower cultivators.

    However, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Saintess Jian Yuluo disyed no fear whatever so and they had disyed their sword spirits on their foreheads.

    With a look, Murong Xue the Eternal Night began to say casually. "Sword Spirits. And also the two of you are also sword saintesses. Interesting."

    "Unfortunately, you have met the wrong opponent today." She said as a dark sword spirit began to surface on her forehead. "I am also a sword saintess and I can tell you that my sword art is really very good."

    Author Note:

    1. I want to write something about the Numbers background.

 Chapter 638 Murong Yue The Eternal Night (2)

    Murong Xue the Eternal Night or Number 2 simply shed her dark edged celestial-step divine sword as she split her profound force into two beaming sword energies upon Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    This was her Lunar Crescent de profound sword art.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess were immediately sent flying backward even as they raised their swords to block it.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi gasped softly as the sword de of her precious sword was broken into halve while she was also sent flying backward at the same time. "I can''t block her sword energies?"

    Even Sword Saintess Yuluo was startled too as she quickly gathered her sword energies to dispel the offensive sword profound energies before she turned to destroy the sword energy that was almost upon Fairy Ye Chengxi, "It is not a straight sword energy projectile but it is a curved sword energy that seem to distort our perception as well."

    As they steadied their footing, both of their sword arms were now trembling lightly!

    Although their opponent''s sword profound art looked ordinary but it punched a powerful profound power that was beyond the seventh cultivation realm!

    Murong Xueughed softly, "Do you expect for me to give you 3 free strikes or something? Just because I am your superior? Or do you expect for me to wait for you to execute your profound attack¡­"

    Sword Saintess had immediately shed to attack Murong Xue as she swirled her sword to create a projectile of six swords to attack at point nk.

    As Murong Xue raised her sword to fend her the puny attack, Fairy Ye Chengxi had raised her broken sword to attack her as well.

    This caused Murong Xue to smile wryly at this futile attack as she immediately raised her sword fingers to deal Fairy Ye Chengxi a lethal hit but all of a sudden Fairy Ye Chengxi''s sword had shed a white sh of light and had neutralized half of the profound animus from her.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said coldly, "You shouldn''t have broken my old master sword¡­"

    Murong Xue was startled as she quickly turned her melee sword fingers into sword energies sword fingers as she sent Fairy Ye Chengxi to fly off with a burst of fierce sword energies impact.

    "Life and Death destruction sword? You are willing to expend your life force energies in this manner?"

    Sword Saintess Yuluo gasped softly when she saw that Fairy Ye Chengxi had coughed out blood; she could not speak as she was hit by Murong Xue''s sword energies.

    Just as she switched to another sword art at this Number 2 as she focused all her profound strength into disying the full profound power of her secret sword art, Murong Xue merely wavered her divine sword and a burst of several sword bursts had struck upon Sword Saintess Yuluo!

    This caused Sword Saintess Yuluo to gasp softly as shended next to Fairy Ye Chengxi. When she hadnded, she began to tremble before coughing out blood!

    Fairy Ye Chengxi caught hold of Saintess Yuluo immediately and there was blood dripping down by the side of her mouth as she gasped weakly, "I can''t get rid of her sword energies in my body¡­"

    A stunned Sword Saintess Yuluo gasped weakly, "She is only ying with us in the first ce. She is capable of hurling several sword energies from her sword art instead of two¡­"

    Murong Xue was smiling casually as she swung her sword as though she was ying with it, "I told you already. With or without any sword spirits, the power disparity between us are simply too vast to ovee. You may be lofty figures in the Celestial Realm and maybe you can survive several rounds with that useless Number 5 but against me, you can only die."

    When she had said that, she had already stopped swinging her sword and had projected a burst of six sword energies on both the fallen Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Yuluo.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi closed her eyes but she was serene as she muttered almost incoherently, "My old master and lord Ji Yuan will avenge me for today."

    Sword Saintess Yuluo had suddenly pulled to cover Fairy Ye Chengxi with her body as she punched with all her profound strength to purge the sword energies from Fairy Ye Chengxi at the risk of worsening her own injuries, "This is only for 6 months in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Our lord Ji Yuan may not be able to defeat her yet but for now, you must try to live. I have died once and got to see Ji Yuan once more. This is enough for me already¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was startled to see what Sword Saintess Yuluo was doing and saw that she had turned really ashen; by devoting all her profound strength to purge the sword energies for her, Sword Saintess Yuluo had given up on resisting the profound energies that were in her body.

    At this moment, she had wanted to scream with her beautiful voice but there were no sounds from her except for her tears¡­

    All of a sudden there was a sh of shadow and a beautiful figure had intercepted the sword burst energies with a soft loud, "Great Exaltation!"

    Murong Xue was startled and before she could react, this beautiful figure had suddenly raised her divine sword and had unleashed a wave of profound power in the shape of a ming blue phoenix to engulf her.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo were startled: Shui Qingqing?!

    When did she be this strong and did she just disy a profound art that hade from Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Jiajia?

    Murong Xue quickly stepped back before she dispelled the profound power art that was engulfing her before she angrily said as she pointed her celestial-step at her attacker, "Who are you?"

    Shui Qingqing disyed an innocent look as she put her left fingers to her back; her left fingers were trembling as she had just disyed the Great Exaltation which could neutralize most profound arts but at a great cost of consuming much of her profound strength.

    As for the ming blue phoenix, it was a newly acquired profound art that was imparted by Jiajia to her as she said to her, "Your matriarch which is my Sister Shui Xisi isn''t here. But I can teach you my secret profound art since we share the same cultivation origins."

    Shui Qingqing had actually followed Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Yuluo due to curiosity this night. As she was from one of the three holynds of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, she actually possessed several superior cultivation profound arts including a stealth ability to follow without detection.

    "Pce Mistress Shui Qingqing from the Water Melody!"

    Murong Xue the Eternal Night merely returned a wry smile, "Just another dead body count. But I must say that you are more impressive than the other two."

    Shui Qingqing merely returned a faint smile and she was only yacting; she knew that she was actually not really strong and most of her profound arts were more for show than practical. Her prot¨¦g¨¦s were constantly praising her or protecting her so much that in her real fight, she actually did not know how to react without thinking.

    At this moment she was actually thinking: What do I do now?

    Just as she was thinking on what to do and Murong Xue was about to make her next move, a stunning maiden with long flocks of golden hair braided to the left side of her head had suddenly walked silently in their midst.

    She was wearing a flimsy white bodice and a short skirt but she was extremely alluring to behold. Even a Fairy like Fairy Ye Chengxi had to admit that she was really beautiful but at the same time, she looked extremely cold.

    As Shui Qingqing, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Yuluo had no idea who she was, plus her profound animus was a faint red, they had quickly surmised that she was an enemy.

    When Murong Xue saw her, she had turned ashen immediately at the sight of this maiden in front of her that looked more human than a demonic race

    It was because she was Number 1 and Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    Murong Xue said weakly to her, "Good that you are here in this ce. Why don''t webine our strength together to kill everyone in this ce?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled alluringly as she rolled her cold golden eyes at Murong Xue, "Hmph, I am actually here to get you back to the Deste Divine Pce. As for destroying this ce, this isn''t my mission."

    Murong Xue hummed coldly, "We are both servants to the Great Demon God and you know very well that our True God desires to destroy this ce¡­"

    All of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao had raised her sword scabbard in an uproar of profound power and the ground below Murong Xue was split and had exploded with in a white symbol of a white lily.

    As for Murong Xue, she was sent flying with a burst of powerful profound power that swept her away without any resistance before her profound animus disappeared away in the darkness.<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ding Xiaoxiao merely said nonchntly, "So the power disparity between Number 1 and Number 2 is actually this great? Hmph, I''ve thought that as Number 2, she may fare better than this."

    Shui Qingqing, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Sword Saintess Yuluo were now trembling with fear for they had never seen anyone that was as powerful as her. Only Jiajia could give them the same impression.

    And moreover this maiden had not even unsheathed her divine sword yet!

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo mustered the strength to ask, "Who are you?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled coldly, "I am Number 1."

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo said weakly, "Good. At least we know who is the one that will kill us."

    Shui Qingqing was nodding quietly along with Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was surprised that these 3 maidens had not asked for any mercy.

    She began to smile wryly, "However I will allow you to live if you are able to win a game of chance with me."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked weakly, "What game of chance?"

    Shui Qingqing was also curious, "What kind of a game?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she disyed 3 cards in front of them. The cards showed a heart, a sword and a shield.

    She said coldly, "Hmph, if you can guess where the heart is, then I shall spare you."

    Then she began to flip the cards rapidly in mid-air with her profound power and she had covered them at the bottom with her profound animus. "So are you able to guess where the heart is?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had stepped forward immediately to say, "Let me make the guess!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao returned a wryly cold smile, "Then their lives are in your hands then."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had turned to Shui Qingqing and Sword Saintess Yuluo and asked them quietly, "Sisters, will you put your lives in my hand today?"

    Sword Saintess Yuluo nodded, "I will put my life in your hands."

    Shui Qingqing smiled, "My life is in your hands now."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled warmly, "Thank you sisters¡­"

    Then she turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiao, "Shall we continue now?"

    She knew that they had no choice but to y this game because this Number 1 was able to end their lives at any time. So this was their only chance for survival!

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she waved her hands, "You may continue."

    The reason why she was smiling was because this was no ordinary card game and they had 0 chance of survival.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had walked calmly in front of the floating cards and she had pointed to the card on the left, "This is not the one."

    She had immediately flipped it and revealed a sword card.

    Then she pointed to the card on the right and said, "Not this one as well."

    She had flipped it and revealed a shield card.

    Then she looked at Ding Xiaoxiao and said slowly, "Therefore the middle card must be the heart card. We have won this game."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was slightly startled that her opponent had won and she was blinking with disbelief, "What is your name?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said nonchntly, "Ye Chengxi."

    With that she had turned around to lift Sword Saintess Yuluo away and Shui Qingqing had also followed them to leave hastily.

    They did not turn back.

    Ding Xiaoxiao took a look at her cards before she turned back with an unhappy look; this was the very first time that she had lost in this game.

    When Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Shui Qingqing were far away, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Shui Qingqing could not resist the curiosity in their hearts. "How do you know which one is the heart card? Why don''t you guess the heart card from the very start?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly, "There isn''t a heart card in the first ce. She may have concealed her killing intention very well but I am still able to see it in her eyes."

    Sword Saintess Yuluo and Shui Qingqing were both startled, "There isn''t any heart card? How do you know this?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi replied weakly, "My old master and lord Ji Yuan often yed this game with me in the past and I always lost. One day he admitted to me that he was cheating."

    Shui Qingqing was startled, "My hero Ji Yuan will cheat?"

    Saintess Yuluo smiled as she looked at this lovelorn maiden, "You have better believed this. He is no hero."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi could not resist a wry smile, "He hates to lose and he will cheat to win even if you are the weaker sex. In this aspect, he does not care about his face."

    "Except his beard." Saintess Yuluoughed softly.

    Shui Qingqing muttered weakly, "I still can''t cope with his beardless look¡­"

    -------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This is an awful long chapter:X

 Chapter 639 Ding Xiaoxiao The White Lily

    The Great Deste Divine Pce where the Great Demon God was.

    When Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had returned to the Great Deste Divine Pce, she was dragging the wounded and unconscious body of Murong Yue the Eternal Night aka Number 2 along with her.

    She tossed her in front of Number 3, 4 and 5 who were shocked at the barbaric treatment of Number 2 and said, "Don''t worry, she won''t die. She is an immortal cultivator. As long as her vital parts are protected, she can regenerate her injuries by releasing her profound animus."

    Number 3 aka Mei Yinxuan the Seer an elfin maiden with a noble look immediately asked, "Who did this to her?"

    Xu Xianzi the Destroyer aka Number 4, a lofty maiden with a beautiful look stared coldly at Ding Xiaoxiao before humming with great bitterness, "Murong Yue is one of us. You have actually dragged her across this hall in a nonchnt manner?!"

    Number 5 aka Yao Hong the Raging Fire was unusually tame in front of Ding Xiaoxiao and decided to stay out of this for two reasons. Firstly, she was injured and secondly, she was never Ding Xiaoxiao''s match. If she can cause Number 2 to be injured in such a manner, then she may well be able to kill her.

    Ding Xiaoxiaoughed softly as she smiled coldly at Xu Xianzi, "You mean Number 2. Have you forgotten that we are not supposed to be addressing our names in this ce? Ops, I seem to drag her across the heaven stairs as well. Oh, I have forgotten that she is your friend. So this is the power of friendship. However, why are you kicking a fuss? She isn''t dead yet and she has disobeyed a direct order from the Great Demon God to stay put in the Great Deste Divine Pce. Am I wrong in trying to fetch her back? What if she has killed the wrong targets instead? Then won''t our Great Demon God be grieved by her actions?"

    As she said that, the rest of the weaker Numbers from the back did not dare to say a word. After all, Ding Xiaoxiao was the acknowledged Number 1 and she was not a soft immortal cultivator.

    Xu Xianzi said with equal coldness, "I may be Number 4 while you are Number 1. But I am not afraid of you."

    As she said that, she had opened her robe to reveal her naked bosoms. However, she was actually showing her the metallic object that was between her bosoms and not her naked bosoms by revealing it to Ding Xiaoxiao. "As you can see, I have merged and metamorphosis with the deste beasts. I am now stronger than before and stronger than you think I am."

    Many of the numbers including Number 3 and 5 were gasping with shock.

    In fact, Number 3 and 5, Mei Yinxuan and Yao Hong were gasping. "You have merged with the deste beasts? This a path of no return¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Oh? This is interesting. So do you want to challenge my position and be Number 1 instead?"

    Xu Xianzi nodded slowly, "This is my intention. You didn''t stop Murong Yue because you are a obedient servant but because you are bored in here. You really think that I do not know what goes in your mind?"

    Then she pulled up her robe and said coldly, "I have the profound energy of my demonic race and now I have also the metamorphed body of the deste beasts. My offense and defense are almost twice as strong as before. So, don''t say that I didn''t warn you."

    Number 3 aka Mei Yinxuan had suddenly hold onto Xu Xianzi as she shook her head slightly, "Forget it. You''re not her match."

    But Xu Xianzi shook her head and stared coldly at Ding Xiaoxiao, "I have called the challenge and there is no backing down now. Ding Xiaoxiao! Have you forgotten that you must adhered to the call of the numbers to be challenged. Or are you a coward?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled and there was an anticipated look in her golden eyes as she stroked her golden flock tresses, "Hmph, this is interesting. Naturally I will answer this call."

    When she had said that, Number 3, Number 5 and all the other Numbers began to stay further back from this great hall.

    There were also some looks of anticipations on the other Numbers; this was actually the very first time that Number 1 was being challenged and also because they would be able to learn of the sword arts of this Number 1. Maybe they could even exploit the weakness of her sword arts too.

    Xu Xianzi the Destroyer had disyed her celestial-step divine sword, "Draw your divine sword."

    Ding Xiaoxiao raised her sword scabbard as she chuckled softly, "Hmph, you mean this? Unfortunately you are still unworthy for me to disy my divine sword."

    Xu Xianzi hummed coldly, "Then you shall regret this."

    As she said that, she had swung her divine sword and whirls of dark wind des began to flutter from all around her and she had also disyed her profound animus to her greatest peak.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao continued to stand on her ground and asked, "Is that all?"

    Xu Xianzi smiled coldly as she transformed into a humanoid with thick armor and had raised her profound strength to the middle 9th immortal positioning!<novelnext></novelnext>

    This startled everyone because they were all restricted in the Celestial Realm here and even Ding Xiaoxiao was unable to break past the 9th immortal positioning barrier to regain her fullest profound strength.

    Xu Xianzi said coldly, "In this way, I can use my immortal profound art to the 9th cultivation realm. Because you are too arrogant, you have going to pay the price for your own folly."

    As she said that, she had gathered a barrage of dark spires around her and with a swung of her sword, she had sent a powerful dark profound energy that sped toward Ding Xiaoxiao and the entire Great Deste Divine Pce was now shaking nonstop by the sheer might of her profound power!

    Ding Xiaoxiao raised her sword domain and a White Lily had blossomed like a sh of astonishing light to envelop her.

    It was a most beautiful sight within the darkness of this powerful profound attack that was directed against her.

    But all of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao had swung her sword scabbard and the dark profound attack was ripped apart and Xu Xianzi was suddenly coughing blood with an open wound on her body!

    The reinforced body of a ninth realm immortal and her profound aura were suddenly dismembered in that instant by a puny eighth realm immortal!

    This was too fast and everyone was startled with a weird look.

    "What is going here?"

    "We didn''t see a single thing?"

    Number 3 aka Mei Yinxuan the Seer who had superior divine sense than the others was more shaken by the others as she tried to extend her senses deep into the duel. She could only mutter with disbelief, "This is her¡­ Sword Domain¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao giggled softly, "Is that all? Is there no cultivators that can use the sword better than I? This is too boring."

    She coolly walked in front of the wounded Xu Xianzi and took her 3 cards that showed a Sword, a Shield and a Heart. "If you able to pick a Heart from these 3 cards then I will consider sparing you. If you pick the Shield, then I will just beat you up but I will spare you. But if you pick the Sword then you have to die. How about it? This is really fair for you and you will have 33% of making the correct guesswork. And a 66% of survival."

    As she said that she covered the cards with her profound animus and smiled at Xu Xianzi.

    A stunned Xu Xianzi murmured weakly as she stared at the 3 cards in front of her before she pointed to the middle card, "The Heart is here..."

    Ding Xiaoxiao flipped the card to reveal a Sword before she rolled coldly.

    In that instant, she swung her sword scabbard and had beheaded Xu Xianzi, stunning everyone.

    The head of an immortal cultivator was hard and the profound defense was also strongest; it was impossible to behead an immortal without a powerful divine sword and she had only used a sword scabbard.

    Ding Xiaoxiao simply shrugged her shoulders to walk away, leaving the rest of the Numbers in stunned silence.

    As she left, she was sighing to herself. "Are there no one that is good with a sword nowadays? This Celestial Realm is too boring and victories are too easy. Maybe the Great Demon God will want me to fight with the Saintess Fang Zhenfei next? Hmph, I doubt that he will because he wants her to be alive than dead."

    From this day onward, all the other Numbers had all decided to get out of her way and not to mess with her.

 Chapter 640 The Hollow World (1)

    Back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth;

    When Ji Yuan and his group had entered through the shimmering blue portal, they found themselves in a majestic rain forest overlooking several ringing mountains with ice cap on it.

    They were not actually in the rain forest below but high above it and were still in spirit form. There should be a short briefing before they were sent down for their trial.

    A profound voice then immediately said to them, "Wee to the trial. You have picked the 4th portal out of the 7 portals¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked with his golden eyes as he looked at the short old man, Ling Feiyue, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and the rest of his group. "Crap! I knew I''ve forgotten something. It is the portal sequence¡­"

    Ling Feiyue kicked Ji Yuan softly on his boot and disyed a weak smile, "Forget it. It is toote already."

    The profound voice of the trial spirit hummed in the heavens above and said, "If you have a golden talisman, you are allowed to use it to exit this trial. If you use your golden talisman, you are no longer allowed to return to this trial."

    The short old man, Ling Feiyue, Yun Chi, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all nodding at this announcement.

    Ji Yuan was also nodding slowly as he thought: It seems that the golden talisman can only be used once if we are entering a trial with a portal.

    Xiang Li giggled: That''s right!

    ? Anyang said weakly: I am sure that you answer before thinking¡­

    The profound voice continued with a monologue echo but it was a female voice nevertheless, "The object of this trial is to survive for 1 week and you will receive rewards pertaining to your ability to survive which has a hidden score of 100. In order to pass this trial and to im your reward, you must achieve 80 marks."

    When the profound voice of the trial spirit had said this, Ji Yuan felt likeughing out loud as heughed. "This is a S+ Trial? All we need to do is to find a cave and sleep for 1 week. Haha¡­"

    Then he turned to ask Bai Qianfeng with a wry smile, "Are you able to use your profound strength in this ce?"

    Bai Qianfeng slowly nodded but she looked uneasy. "I can. But this ce gives me the creeps. I have the most uneasy feeling about this ce."

    "Same here." Yun Chi slowly said.

    The profound voice of the trial spirit continued, "Then wee to the Hollow World. In a while time, I will teleport you below¡­"

    "No wait," the trial spirit had suddenly said. "Let''s wait for a little while."

    This stunned everyone.

    Ji Yuan was about to protest with a loudugh when all of a sudden a huge golden dragon with six golden wings had suddenly appeared over the horizon and immediately Ji Yuan could sense a great dread that was suddenly upon him and his fingers were actually trembling and he was not actually the only one!

    Even Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi and the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch had suddenly turned pale!

    This gigantic dragon was so huge that Ji Yuan was just the size of its toe nail and its entire body was covered with splendid gold scales that reflected the sun rays of the light brilliantly.

    This gigantic dragon was a 13th rank divine beast and the profound animus of its aura was terrifying.

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled heavily and her lips were trembling, "There are no 13th rank divine or deste beast even in the Immortal Divine Realm. What is this monstrosity¡­"

    "Look! There is a man on the golden divine dragon." Yun Chi had suddenly pointed to a dark cloaked man that was on top of the golden divine dragon.

    Although this dark cloak man did not disy any profound animus but the aura around him looked extremely lofty and forbidden.<novelnext></novelnext>

    When this dark cloak man on top of the golden divine dragon passed through the heavens, there were huge horrid winds and hundreds of high ranking monsters that were at the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th rank were running on the ground and in the heavens.

    Then the dark cloaked man raised his finger and a ck bolt of light had suddenly vitalized into profound energy as it flew to strike dead a 11th rank serpent that was on the ground and the ground below had exploded into a burning pit. As for the serpent deste monster, it hadpletely imploded into pieces on the ground below.

    Then the dark cloaked man and the golden divine dragon sped past the heavens below disappearing in a blink of an eye.

    Bai Qianfeng was gasping as she turned to look at Yun Chi, "Did he just kill a 11th rank serpent with a single hit?! Is it even possible?"

    Ji Yuan was gulping now as he muttered weakly, "My spirit animus is only at the 9th rank¡­ and I didn''t even notice that there are so many deste monsters below us in the thick forest below¡­"

    Yun Chi said slowly and she was pale, "We are actually high above the heavens and in spirit form. That is why our divine sense is not able to sense the deste beasts below¡­"

    Then she turned to look at the rest of the group, "And that man just now isn''t a celestial cultivator or an immortal. He is from the God Race."

    Bai Qianfeng was startled, "God Race? I''ve never heard of them before."

    There were also many perplexed looks on the others, including Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "That man earlier is at the 10th Immortal positioning. I can''t be wrong about this. I have heard that there is a God Race and they stay in a mysterious divine realm that is close to the Great Beyond. Realm. This may even be a lower divine realm of the Great Beyond Realm."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "Are you kidding me? And this is only a S+ Rank Trial. How the heck did we get send to such a high level divine realm? They may as well send me to the Immortal Divine Realm!"

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "The Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Fantian are at the 10th Immortal Positioning too and they have created the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Therefore there is a possibility that they have the ability to create a secret way to this ce. However, this is only my guess. Where we are, I actually do not know."

    Yu Jingjing asked, "Maybe we can ask someone else here where we are?"

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "And get ourselves killed in the process?"

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly raised her lovely voice as she shouted to the trial spirit, "Hey! Where actually are we now?"

    "This is the Hollow World." The trial spirit simply answered.

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I think I have just changed my mind on hiding in the cave. Now I want to dig as deep as possible underground¡­"

    "You can continue on your trial now. Best of luck to survive." The trial spirit interrupted Ji Yuan all of a sudden and immediately 12 beams of light had descended into the rain forest below.

    Only when the beams of light had taken Ji Yuan and his group to the ground below, did Ji Yuan realize they were actually very far up and everything in this ce was gigantic. In fact, the rain forest looked taller than even a mountain here!

    Ji Yuan almost fainted when he saw the sight.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly, "These trees really had the height of the World Trees in the Immortal Realm¡­"

    ----------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This trial is going to be extremely hard for Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 641 The Hollow World (2)

    When Ji Yuan and his group hadnded in the towering rainforest, they had discovered that that they were feeling extremely heavy and could not move.

    A few blinks of an eyeter, their profound animus had been triggered automatically to fight off the increased pressure of this ce.

    Ling Feiyue sighed when she was being forced to disy her profound animus, "Our profound animus is like a beacon of light for the divine sense of our enemies. These high level deste beasts may as well have a much sharper animalistic divine sense than us¡­"

    But all of a sudden she was gasping as she stared at Yun Chi for Yun Chi''s profound animus was at the peak of the 9th immortal positioning.

    Even the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch was startled as he stared nkly at Yun Chi; it was because he had never thought that Yun Chi was actually a high level immortal among them.

    Shui Xisi had suddenly raised her divine sword at Yun Chi, "Just who are you?!"

    Ji Yuan had quickly stepped in to stop Shui Xisi as he smiled weakly, "She is one of us. Don''t attack her."

    Other than Ji Yuan, only Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress knew the true identity of Yun Chi.

    Yu Jingjing asked quietly, "She is really one of us? She is a 9th immortal just like Maiden Qianfeng here."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded slowly, "She is really one of us and I know who she is for some time already."

    Little Princess and Yang Mi asked with a startled look, "You know?"

    Yun Chi smiled as she removed her upper face mask, to reveal a most stunning maiden. "I guess that it is pointless to hide who I am anymore. If you want to know who I am, then you must really address me as the Death God Mingwang."

    When she had revealed her true identity, there were looks of startled shock from Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and the short old man.

    "She is the Death God Mingwang?!"

    "Isn''t the Death God Mingwang a male?!"

    "The Death God is actually in our party all this while?"

    "Didn''t Ji Yuan say that he has been fighting the Death God Mingwang and that he has no chance of winning?"

    "Or is Ji Yuan her depraved ve now?"

    Ji Yuan weakly interrupted themotions, "Also, Yun Chi has my unborn child too."

    Many of the maidens and the short old man: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue weakly said, "What is going on here?"

    Shui Xisi gasped with disbelief, "Ji Yuan, do you know that the Death God Mingwang is from the Deste Divine Realm and she is one of the True Gods of that divine realm? And she is also our enemy as well as the enemy of the Pangu Immortals."

    When Ji Yuan had heard Shui Xisi, he could onlyughed weakly, "Haha... rx..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue stepped in between Yun Chi and the short old man before turning to the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch, "Father, she is my prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress as well."

    The reason why she had stepped between them was because she knew that her father had harbored a deep hatred for the Death God Mingwang.

    The short old man was stunned that Yun Chi was actually the Death God Mingwang. All along, he had thought that the Death God Mingwang was a male.

    In the past, when he had heard that his beautiful maiden had actually joined the Death God Mingwang, he was so enraged that he had actually vomited blood. It was because he had imagined his daughter bing a depraved ve of the Death God Mingwang and that she would be subjected to his merciless depraved mind every single day.

    And he was even cursing the Death God Mingwang every day for bringing his astonishing peerless daughter Chu Lixue to depravity.

    But the thing was, Chu Lixue was really too astonishing to behold so much that the men that had seen her only once would gasp that she was indeed a divine maiden that could bring their hearts to smile at her presence. Hence she got her nick the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Also, she was regal and noble looking. Men could really find no fault in her as she did not have any emotional outburst.

    As for why the Smiling Divine Maiden had joined the Death God Mingwang was that in her younger days, she was set upon by the lustful and tricky cultivators who were determined to obtain her body and the Death God Mingwang had saved her.

    In her mind, the Death God Mingwang was more noble than the lustful cultivators and that the Death God Mingwang had given her plenty of freedom to cultivate in Bliss City. Other than this condition that she could not leave Bliss City without the permission of the Death God Mingwang, she was also given the leadership position to run Bliss City on ''his'' behalf.

    Although the Death God Mingwang had taken her as ''his'' prot¨¦g¨¦ but he had used this as an excuse to touch her or to obtain her body. In fact, ''he'' did not show any interest in the opposite sex and ''he'' had even introduced Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress to her at ater time too. And ''he'' did not touch them too.

    As for the ugliness of the male celestial cultivators, she saw their ugliness in Bliss City and she hated them for that.

    That was until she had met Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi said slowly as she looked at the short old man, "Indeed I am the Great Death God. Other than all of you here, no one else knows of my true identity. So do you want to fight with me?"

    The stunned look of the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch slowly revealed a look of surprise before he regained hisposure to say nonchntly, "Hell. No."

    This time round, it was Yun Chi who was looking surprised. "No?"

    The short old man aka the White Sword Monarch began tough jovially, "No. Why did all of you have to think this way? I am actually a generous old man."

    Ji Yuan and the rest of the group were startled and were perplexed.

    Actually they did not know that the reason why the short old man was secretly searching for his daughter Chu Lixue all these years was because he had wanted to save her from a depraved servitude that was bonded by the Death God Mingwang. That was the very reason why he had wanted to kill the Death God Mingwang so badly.

    But when he had realized today that the Death God Mingwang was a maiden and that she was actually Yun Chi, he was quite relieved now. In fact, he had developed a fondness for Yun Chi and now that he knew that she was his daughter''s prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress, he was also happier.

    Ji Yuan began to scratch his head as he said to his old master, "Erm, well if you want to put it this way."

    The short old man kicked Ji Yuan and said solemnly, "What are you thinking about? We should be thinking of a way of oveing this trial instead!"

    Just as he was about to say so, there was a powerful roar beyond the shadows of the rainforest.

    He said instead, "Let us try to survive in this ce first."

 Chapter 642 The Hollow World (3)

    All of a sudden, a monstrous deste beast with armored body that stood upright burst into view. Instead of having a pair of forearm, it had six evil looking des instead. It looked horrid and more like a monster from the abyss.

    The armor of this beast was hissing immediately and it was drooling acidic saliva.

    Ji Yuan immediately shed toward this monstrous deste beast with his two emperor-step divine swords and he was only as tall as its bended knees.

    There was a brilliant sh of light as he unleashed his grand cross on the body of this monstrous beast before he was forced to evade out of its way when the four ws began to swing and exploded the ground around him!

    To the startled shock of Ji Yuan, he had only made a dent to its armor and it was quickly regenerating.

    Yun Chi immediately said, "This is a 10th rank deste monster. Be careful!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "10th rank?"

    He quickly turned to look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng as he called out hastily, "What the heck? 10th rank? Yun Chi, Qianfeng. The two of you can beat this thing? Our profound strength doesn''t seem to be restricted in here."

    Yun Chi had already shed to Ji Yuan and had pulled him away, "Although we can win this thing but we need to run first!"

    Bai Qianfeng had already told the rest of the ground, "Run!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Run? Why?"

    Yun Chi answered as she pulled Ji Yuan just in time away as the ground behind them exploded loudly into a wall of profound energies, scattering and raining debris and dust onto them. "There are more of these things around this ce. If I am not wrong, then this is a trap."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This is a trap?!"

    Yun Chi said quietly, "The instant that we appear in this ce, we are all forced to reveal our profound animus. If I am not wrong, then this ce is a ce to trap the immortals."

    Bai Qianfeng had also turned to say to Yun Chi and Ji Yuan, "We ought to escape from this ce. All of us."

    The rest of the cultivators in the group were all startled, "This is a trap?"

    Ling Feiyue was startled, "Who will design such a trap?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hurled a st of sword energy behind her and at the deste monster that was still chasing them, "We have better shake this monster first before we do any talking."

    After 20 minutes, they had finally shaken off the deste monster away from them in another location by suppressing their profound animus.

    The short old man aka the White Sword Monarch said breathlessly, "Thews of this ce ispletely different from the Celestial Realm. In this ce, we have to consume our profound strength to suppress our profound animus. This is really tiring."

    Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "Luckily we have Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng here¡­"

    Shui Xisi was smiling bitterly, "10th rank deste monster?! What kind of a joke is this. This is more tiring than I''ve thought."

    Zhi Jiugong said quietly, "The higher our cultivation realm, the more profound strength that we need to suppress our profound animus. But if we don''t have our profound animus, how do we fight or even run?"

    The Lovely Empress bitterly said, "Then we have to keep our profound animus up and this is like advertising our whereabouts to everyone in this ce. Moreover I am betting that their divine sense is able to sense miles away."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Then what do you suggest we do now?"

    Yun Chi answered sharply, "We need to use our golden talismans to escape from this ce as soon as possible. And I mean for real. We are leaving this ce."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "We are leaving so soon?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "If we do not leave, then we will surely die in this ce. There is no doubt about it."

    Yang Mi who had the lowest cultivation realm, began to answer weakly, "I am in for leaving this ce."

    She looked exhausted and she was a saintess.

    This ce had a high difficulty level.

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "Let''s leave this ce first. Now I know what the ck stele means."

    He began to recite the lines from the ck stele;

    "This is a valley of darkness and death.

    At least 6 cultivators in each team are required to enter the Valley of the Darkness.<novelnext></novelnext>

    In the Valley of the Darkness, cultivators are not going to teach their sons no more, and sons will be cowards.

    The sons will search for something without knowing what they search for, insecurity and doubt will torture them for the answers that their father cultivators have already known.

    Women will be like men, and men will be like women.

    If you are the courageous, you may enter this trial and be the beacon of light in the Valley of the Darkness."

    He bitterly said, "I know why the sons are cowards now and the men will be women. But I still don''t get the women will be like men part."

    But he had already taken out the golden talisman and was saying, "Let''s turn back. This ce is too dangerous. Let''s burn our golden talismans and leave this ce now."

    Everyone in their group nodded and agreed.

    However none of them saw the look that were on Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng or Shui Xisi.

    As Ji Yuan flickered his golden talisman, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess, the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch, Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden had all burnt their golden talismans as they disappeared from this ce; this ce was too dangerous and it was wiser for them to give up.

    When Ji Yuan had burnt his golden talisman halfway, he had suddenly destroyed his own golden talisman and were staring at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng; they had already burnt their golden talisman halfway but they were looking grim.

    The Lovely Empress who was also burning her golden talisman halfway was startled by Ji Yuan and she had also stuff out her golden talisman, "What is wrong Ji Yuan?"

    Only Shui Xisi did not burn her golden talisman yet.

    "What is wrong, Qianfeng?" Ji Yuan had suddenly asked. "You are not like this before?"

    Bai Qianfeng took a nce at Yun Chi before she lowered her head to say to Ji Yuan, "So you have discovered¡­"

    When her golden talisman had finished burning, she was still in the same spot.

    Shui Xisi quietly said, "Immortals thate to this ce won''t be able to escape. This is a trap for the immortals."

    Ji Yuan was startled and he stared angrily at Shui Xisi, "Then why didn''t you say so earlier?"

    Shui Xisi protested weakly, "I''ve only realized it after I am here. Do you really think that I know everything? I have never even been here. I have heard of this ount before but it is at the back of my head. I didn''t burn my golden talisman so that I can verify this. What if I am wrong?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi quietly said to Ji Yuan, "You should have another golden talisman. Burn your golden talisman and be gone. As long as we can survive for 7 days, we can rejoin you outside."

    Ji Yuan shook his head with a grin, "I am not going anyway. I will be joining the two of you here."

    "I will join you here as well," the Lovely Empressughed softly and there was delight in her lovely golden eyes.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why are you still here? Go back!"

    The Lovely Empress took a yful step back, "I don''t want to do so. So what can you do to me? Ravage me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi was also giggling, "Ji Yuan, let me join you here. Maybe I can be helpful to you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I doubt so."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Barely 1 hour in this ce, we are now down to 5. It is no wonder why this ce is a S+ Trial and required a group."

    "Because some of the cultivators in the group will be cannon fodder?" Shui Xisi giggled as she offered a helpful insight.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 643 The Hollow World (4)

    The group of five which consisted of Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress sped through the rainforest with their suppressed profound strength.

    As they sped across the rainforest, Yun Chi asked Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan, why don'' you use your golden talisman? You know that this ce is highly dangerous, right?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a broad grin, "And abandoned my unborn child? Never!"

    Yun Chi smiled weakly at this reply but in her heart, she was touched.

    At the same time, her little precious which was her unborn daughter began to chuckle softly to her: My daddy is so awesome nice to mama.

    Yun Chi said to her in secret: He is just a foolish cultivator. This ce is beyond his cultivation realm to survive and is a entrapment for the immortals.

    Her little precious was quiet because she did not know the meaning of entrapment yet.

    But Yun Chi knew that this was an entrapment because the Pangu Immortals would surely have thought of a safety measure to prevent the immortals from unraveling the secrets of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Right now, she alongside with Bai Qianfeng were now trapped in this ce for 7 days.

    Bai Qianfeng turned to Shui Xisi as they sped across the rainforest, "Out of curiosity, do you know where we are now?"

    Shui Xisi shook her head, "I wish I know. I have heard that there is a trial in the upper level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that has a mysticw that restrict the immortals. I didn''t expect that this will be the ce. When I saw that golden dragon and the high level monsters in this ce, this has suddenly urred to me."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she said, "It is weird that such a ce exists in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I am beginning to doubt that the Great God Pangu or even the Great Goddess Fantian have the profound power to create such a connection to this ce. But I really don''t know for sure."

    Yun sighed, "Same here¡­"

    "So who do we have here?" An old voice had suddenly interrupted her, startling her and a dark figure had suddenly shed in front of them with such speed that Ji Yuan and his group were in disbelief.

    A youthful but fat man could suddenly be seenughing jovially, "What do I have here? It seems that I have two immortals here to be added into my collection. As for the lowly celestial cultivators, you may go. I am not interested to toy with you. And what''s more, these two immortals are such astonishing maidens as well. Hohohoho¡­"

    The profound animus of this youthful but fat man when he had appeared, had immediately pronounced him at the 10th immortal positioning and his profound aura was terrifying to even Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng.

    It was because he was at the peak of the 10th immortal positioning and even more terrifying than the dark cloaked man!

    Yun Chi could not believe that there was actually someone that was at a higher cultivation realm than her by a full cultivation realm and she could immediately feel the disparity between them. Moreover she was also pregnant and could not fight in her optimum condition.

    As for Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress, they could barely move and they were trembling out of their control!

    The youthful fat man continued with more jovialughter, "I have forgotten to introduce myself. I am Old Reverend Beiyuan and my only joy is to collect immortals for my own amusements."

    Yun Chi had suddenly disyed her sword wings, disying all 24 of her immortal-step swords and she had also disyed her emperor-step divine sword. "There is no escape from this old freak. Qianfeng, run while you can. I will hold him back¡­"

    "Wait!" It was Ji Yuan that had interrupted her loudly.

    Even though Ji Yuan was trembling, he took all his willpower to say as he stepped forward with his two emperor-step divine swords. "No one shall green me! They are my consorts! If you want to have them, them I am afraid that I have to cross sword with you!"

    Xiang Li was also saying inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: That''s right!<novelnext></novelnext>

    Anyang weakly said: We are a goner now¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan stared at Ji Yuan with a startled look, "You have the Goddess Tear?!"

    He immediately waved his hands and Xiang Li and Anyang were both forced out of Ji Yuan''s soul sea, to reveal two beautiful scantily dressed young elfin maidens.

    Xiang Li was panicky as she hid behind Ji Yuan immediately, "Big Brother, he is not only a collector of immortal but he is also a collector of the spirit entities."

    Xiahou Anyang was also terrified and she followed Xiang Li to hide behind Ji Yuan, "Master, he is truly scary¡­"

    The Lovely Empress was surprised to see Xiang Li in person and she was also surprised to see Anyang. She had heard of Xiang Li from the others and was briefly introduced to the mysterious Anyang but she had actually never seen them before.

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "So what if I have the Goddess Tear? You may not be a match for my swords."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed aloud, "Hohohoho. You can''t even dent that 10th rank deste beast earlier. Do you think that you can even hurt me?"

    Yun Chi said coldly, "Maybe just Ji Yuan alone won''t be able to hurt you but the five of us will be able to hurt you!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho¡­"

    Whenever heughed with his Hohohoho, there was a terrifying pressure that wavered throughout the vicinity and it struck fear in their fears.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan and his group did not need to suppress their profound animus for with this old freak here, no deste beasts would dare to approach them. As a matter of fact, several deste beasts faraway were seen moving rapidly out of the way.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan grinned like an old imp, "You didn''t realize that I am the master of this ce, do you?"

    When he had said that, Ji Yuan and the rest of his group were all shocked: He is the master of this ce?

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself: What bad luck¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho, but if you surrender your Goddess'' Tear to me then I will let your group go. How about this?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by his request but he quickly said firmly, "Over my dead body!"

    His boldness startled everyone.

    Ji Yuan then said, "If I die, then my Goddess'' Tear will die along with me¡­"

    "Won''t." Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "She has found a soul vessel in your divine sword now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then he dered loudly, "Then I shall destroy my divine sword in front of you! Since you know almost everything, then surely you know that I am a half-step Sword Deity and I am capable of doing so?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan looked a little panicky, "Erm, want to negotiate?"

 Chapter 644 The Hollow World (5)

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to pester Ji Yuan, "Hohoho, I can give you an immortal profound treasure for your Goddess Tear and spare your friends too."

    Ji Yuan bitterly, "Why do you want my Goddess Tear so badly? I am telling you that I am not trading my Xiang Li for anything in the world!"

    When Xiang Li had heard Ji Yuan, she was touched in her innermost heart and she muttered silently: Big Brother¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan roared with anger, "You are not afraid that I will kill all of you here?!!!"

    Ji Yuan began to raise his two emperor-step swords in a threatening manner, "Heh, I am dying for a fight anyway. I repeat myself again. I won''t ever give up my Xiang Li for anything, ever!"

    When he had said that, even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had all disyed abat stance along with him!

    Ji Yuan said angrily to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Also, because I have promised the Great Beyond Goddess to protect Xiang Li and not to give her up easily!"

    All of a sudden Old Reverend Beiyuan seemed to have turned ashen and he had suddenly shed more than a 100 yard away, startling everyone!

    He seemed to have muster his profound strength and his profound aura had suddenly expanded like a force of powerful barrier around him.

    But after a while, he blinked his eyes as he looked at Ji Yuan nkly before he muttered, "You didn''t get strike down by the ck cmity lightning?"

    Although he was 100 yards away and was muttering but his voice was audible in everyone''s ears.

    Ji Yuan frowned weakly, "What ck cmity lightning?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to hop madly and his steps were like earthquakes before he stopped to exim with great exasperation. "Do you know that you must not mention her name in this ce. If you misuse her name and tell a single untruth, then you will be strike down by the ck cmity lightning. Even if you are a ninth and tenth immortal, it is impossible to escape without any injuries and even death!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized why this Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly shed away all of a sudden and so did the others.

    Heughed jovially before saying, "You know, the Great Beyond Goddess and I are actually friends¡­"

    When he had said that, Old Reverend Beiyuan had turned even paler and he had shed to a mile away.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; did he have to be so exaggerated?

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know how powerful the ck cmity lightning was at this point. The great penalty for saying anything sacrilegious against the Great Beyond Goddess, the invitation of the ck cmity lightning was even worse and that was why Old Reverend Beiyuan had decided to get out of the way and watched them getting pulverized.

    But again, nothing happened.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly shed to Ji Yuan and he was encircling him like an imp, "You¡­ you are really a friend of my great mistress?"

    Ji Yuan was startled and so did the others.

    And he answered what was on everyone''s mind, "Erm, you are a prot¨¦g¨¦ of my mistress?"

    "Hohohoho, surprise!" Old Reverend Beiyuan patted his pot belly as heughed. "I am her disciple to be exact. So how is my great mistress now?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Well, actually this is a long story. She has never told me about you."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    He began tough weakly, "Hoho, so my mistress didn''t ask you to be here to release me."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Release you? You are in a prison?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan muttered, "Can''t you see?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do you think I can ''see''? And where are we now and why are you here?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohoho, this is the Hollow World. If you are here, naturally you are taking your trial in this ce."

    Ji Yuan disyed a perplexed look, "Is this ce even a trial? This ce is so dangerous and we can die at anytime even without knowing why."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "We are not allowed to lift our fingers against the celestials in this ce so you won''t be in any dangers. However, if you are an immortal then it is a different story."

    When he had said that, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng began to look uneasy.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "How about the high level monsters in this ce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed mischievously, "You are supposed to survive in this ce for 7 days by suppressing your profound animus."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "If not, we can get ourselves killed in this ce?"

    Then he quickly asked, "And who is that dark cloak man with the golden dragon that we saw a while ago?"

    "Dark cloaked man?" Old Reverend Beiyuan disyed a perplexed look.

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I thought that you say that you are the master of this ce and you didn''t know about this dark cloaked man and his golden dragon?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly burst into jovialughter, "Hohohoho! That isn''t a man. She is a maiden. You have me confused for a little moment, that''s all."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "She is a maiden? She is kinda fierce."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed nonstop, "Just now I pulled the tail of her golden dragon and she is kinda mad at me. She is Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing."

    Ji Yuan asked bitterly, "And why did you do that for?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan blinked his eyes before he answered, "Hohoho. Because it is fun and I am bored? And I like it when she is irritated by me?"

    Ji Yuan almost fainted at his reply, "Can you don''t do that ''Hohohoho''ughter? It is so irritating."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to pat his pot belly as heughed jovially, "Hohohoho."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "How did you someone of your great immortal positioning happened to be trapped in this ce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to sigh woefully as though this had reminded him of a most painful past, "I have offended my great mistress so she cursed me not to mention her name or title and send me to this ursed ce."

    Ji Yuan weakly asked, "What exactly did you do?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly caught hold of Ji Yuan and said with a pitiful look, "Brother, you seem to have understand me. I have actually done nothing wrong! My great mistress had ordered me to keep quiet and I didn''t talk! Then she had sent me to this ce. Wuwuwuw!"

    Ji Yuan asked bitterly, "You didn''t talk but did you Hohohoho or Wuwuwuw?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to ponder meaningfully, "This isn''t talking right?"

    Ji Yuan and everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered incoherently, "I may have guessed why you are here in this ce¡­"

    He asked curiously, "Are there others like you here? How did you get trap in this ce with that Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan answered jovially, "Hohohoho! There are actually 7 of us here. We are all being send here to temper our cultivation."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This exins why there are 7 portals. If I am not mistaken, these portals will take us to one of the domains of the rulers of this ce."

    "Hohohoho. That is right!" Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially.

    Then he shed a look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "Our mission is to kill or imprison all the immortals in this ce."

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Listen. We are all friends of the Great Beyond Goddess here and¡­"

    All of a sudden Old Reverend Beiyuan had shed away to a mile away before he said cautiously, "Erm, there is no ck cmity lightning? You are all really friends of my mistress?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Of course we are. We have even party together for quite a while. So you mustn''t hurt them."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan cautiously went up to Ji Yuan again before he looked at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "Alright then. I dare not hurt the friends of my great mistress."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were suddenly relieved; they had no wish to fight against a peaked 10th immortal positioning freak and moreover they did not want to test how strong he really was.

    Ji Yuan asked Old Reverend Beiyuan again, "Why did you need the Goddess'' Tear for?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly before he finally heaved a soft sigh, "Have you heard of the Goddess Star Pce before?"

    Ji Yuan took a puzzled look at Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and the others who were all disying equally perplexed looks before he said, "No? What is this ce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Every 500 years, the Goddess Star Pce will be opened briefly. There are plenty of cultivation slips inside. I am struck in a room. Now if I have the Goddess Tear then I can unravel the mysteries of that room and even make my escape from this ce."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "Are you kidding me? You will be trapped by a room?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan frowned, "God Immortals can''t lie. And that is why I am catching the immortals to make them help me inside the Goddess Star Pce."

    Ji Yuan suddenly had an idea, "What if we can help you? Can you bring us to that Goddess Star Pce to have a look?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan took a look at Ji Yuan before he said, "That ce isn''t for the celestials. This is dangerous even for me. Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Dangerous even for you?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nodded, "Then why do you think that I am trapped in this ce for such a long time?"

    Yun Chi was suddenly smiling as she said to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Senior, we will surely help you."

    Even Bai Qianfeng was smiling and nodding, "Just take us to this Goddess Star Pce."

    There was a reason why they were suddenly really friendly right now. When they had heard that there were cultivation slips in the Goddess Star Pce, they were excited immediately; this would mean that the secrets of the 10th immortal positioning may be hidden in the Goddess Star Pce!

    Yun Chi was even asking, "Senior, do you have any cultivation tips for us?"

 Chapter 645 The Goddess Star Palace (1)

    With a wave of Old Reverend Beiyuan''s hand, Ji Yuan and his group were suddenly lifted up from the group as their profound animus began to join up with him.

    "Hohohoho." Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially and he began to lift up high into the air and he was soon speeding through the heavens in the next blink of an eye.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stammered, "I can now fly?"

    The Lovely Empress smiled weakly, "It isn''t you that is flying but him."

    She was actually referring to Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Ji Yuan could feel an invisible force that was carrying him along with Old Reverend Beiyuan. He could not help asking weakly, "We won''t fall, right?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohoho! Of course not! Trust me!"

    Shui Xisi was also smiling weakly as she took a look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "He won''t drop us from this height, right? He says he can''t kill the celestials but he never say he won''t drop us, right?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Please don''t give him any bright ideas."

    Shui Xisiughed weakly, "Just kidding."

    As they sped along the heavens, they passed through many forests and mountains below.

    Ji Yuan was astonished that they were moving so fast that they may as well as covered a hundred miles in a blink of an eye.

    A short whileter, Old Reverend Beiyuan seemed toe to an icy mountain range that was taller than any mountains that they had seen and this mountain was at such a great height that they could only see icy mountains below and there were no more rain forests.

    They soon see a huge runic door at the end of this tall icy mountain and they soonnded on a tform near it.

    And when they hadnded, Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress immediately went to one side and they were vomiting.

    Bai Qianfeng took a look at Yun Chi and said weakly, "I guess that they have motion sickness."

    Yun Chi nodded weakly as she looked at Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    Indeed, Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had experienced motion sickness and they were dazed by the speed flying.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohoho. This is only a little flying. Are you ready to enter the Goddess Star Pce now?"

    Yun Chi asked Old Reverend Beiyuan, "The Goddess Pce is behind this door?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohoho. Indeed! I am struck in the 32th room. Over the course of thousands of years, I have managed to unravel most of the mysteries of the Goddess Star Pce."

    Bai Qianfeng asked curiously, "How many rooms are there in the Goddess Star Pce?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to scratch his face before saying, "There should be 33 rooms in total. Just a little bit more and I can escape from this ce."

    "You are uncertain?" Bai Qianfeng asked weakly.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to smile weakly, "Only that petty Qi Yuexing is struck at the same ce as me. The rest are not as smart as me."

    Bai Qianfeng asked curiously, "Aren''t the 7 of you together? Howe you are not guiding the other 5 to the 32rd room?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan returned a perplexed look at Bai Qianfeng before grinning, "We have a gamble to see which of us is able to escape from this prison first. Hohoho."

    Yun Chi began to say bitterly, "Maybe if you join hands together, you may have already escape from this ce¡­"

    "Are you kidding?!" All of a sudden a beautiful voice had suddenly interrupted Yun Chi and the dark cloaked ''man'' had sped across the heavens to where they were and as she reached the icy mountains, she began tond gracefully like a feather. It was as though she had just teleported to this ce.

    Ji Yuan and the rest of his group were startled by her sudden appearance; they saw an exquisite picturesque maiden with a pair of long tresses in front and long flowing hair on her backnded gracefully on the ground as she threw her dark cloak at Old Reverend Beiyuan in a fit of anger.

    She was dressed in a white golden thin toga that revealed much of her desirable delicate figure and immediately there was a strong crushing pressure in the vicinity; her profound animus had revealed her to be at the 10th middle immortal positioning.

    She simply waved her hand at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng; this immediately forced them to bend their knees in her direction!

    Old Reverend Beiyuan immediatelyughed, "Hohohoho!" And when he hadughed, there was a protective force that picked Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng again.

    "Qi Yuexing, why are you here?"

    This maiden was indeed Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and she was looking at great annoyance at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Today you have dared to pull my golden dragon''s tail and now I have heard you badmouthing me as petty. And why did you not kill these 2 immortals and have protected them instead?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho! This young man here is friend of our great mistress and he has the Goddess'' Tear. In fact, they are all friends of our great mistress."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing immediately took a nce at Ji Yuan and she was gasping softly, "Indeed, he has the Goddess'' Tear. Is it even possible?"

    When Ji Yuan saw that Qi Yuexing was now looking in his direction, he began to wonder weakly to himself: These God Immortals sure can go to ces really fast¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing returned her attention to Old Reverend Beiyuan and frowned, "Who are they and what are their names?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to turn to Ji Yuan, "Erm, what is your name?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly answered, "I''ve thought that you would never ask this question."

    When he had said that, even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were smiling weakly.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing began to hum coldly at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "You don''t even know their names and who they are, yet you have the tenacity to bring them to this sacred ce?"

 Chapter 646 The Goddess Star Palace (2)

    Ji Yuan and his group promptly introduced themselves.

    Afterwards which Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a look at Yun Chi and said, "It seems that she is with child. Very well then, I shall spare her instead. However¡­"

    She began to take a look at Bai Qianfeng for a while before saying, "However this one is an immortal too¡­"

    "She is also a friend of the Great Beyond Goddess." Ji Yuan had stepped in to say with a soft chuckle.

    All of a sudden Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had turned ashen and she had quickly sped 2 miles to the heavens and had raised her fingers in front of her in a defensive posture.

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan saw this, he wasughing jovially. "Hohohoho! I didn''t think that the renown Qi Yuexing would also have this side of hers."

    Grand Qi Yuexing muttered while stationary in the heavens, "There is no ck cmity lightning? They are really the friends of our great mistress?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan answered jovially, "Hohohoho. I''ve already tested them and that is why I have brought them to this ce. Maybe they can help me to unravel the mysteries of the room 32.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing gracefullynded near Ji Yuan and she took a look at Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi, "It is impossible that our great mistress has any association with them. They are mere insignificant cultivators in the lower divine realms. Even for me, there is only one conversation every few tens of thousands of years."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I don''t think you are your great mistress'' favorite disciple."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly lifted her fingers and there were golden sparks that were being disyed, "Rubbish! You shall pay for your insolence attitude¡­"

    "Hold, hold!" Old Reverend Beiyuan had hastily stepped in front of them and he began to rebuke Ji Yuan, "Qi Yuexing is actually my great mistress'' favorite disciple. You have no idea how boring the Great Beyond is. Hence, we have few chances to talk to our great mistress¡­"

    "You still have the cheek to say this!" Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was now saying angrily to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Because of your boredom, you are the one that cause us to be struck in this ce for the past tens of thousands of years!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan protested weakly, "Didn''t our great mistress says that let this be a trial for us? Why must you say that this is a prison?"

    Ji Yuan and the rest of the group were actually thinking: The pot calling the kettle ck; he is the one that is also calling this ce a prison¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed before she stared coldly at the mystic door that was in front, "Hurry and open this door."

    It seemed that she had suddenly decided to give up on arguing and to follow them into the Goddess Tear Pce.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohoho. It will be better if we join forces to force this door open. After all, this door needs plenty of profound strength to open. If I am too weakter, how do we even reach the 32 roomter?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a cold look at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "You are a peaked 10th immortal positioning Godly Immortal. Will you hurry up?"

    With a soft grumble, Old Reverend Beiyuan began to approach this mystic door and then with a loud shout, he began to mmed his hands loudly on the mystic door!

    At this point, Ji Yuan and his group could feel that it was like a violent earthquake had happened and the heavens and the earth were both howling with the might of his profound strength!

    Just feeling the strength of his profound strength, Ji Yuan felt drained of his profound strength.

    Even Yun Chi was not an exception as she turned to look at Bai Qianfeng; there were both thinking, so this was the might of the 10th immortal positioning!

    They immediately knew that this mystic door could only be opened by the Godly Immortals. Even a peaked 9th immortal like Yun Chi was not able to open this mystic door to unravel the mysteries inside.<novelnext></novelnext>

    When the mystic door was finally cracked opened by Old Reverend Beiyuan''s profound strength, he began to mutter. "I am your eldest disciple brother. Why are you ordering me? You are but the youngest disciple sister¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing ignored him as she promptly walked into the mystic door. When she crossed the dark spaces beyond this mystic door, she had disappeared!

    This startled Ji Yuan for they could not see anything beyond this mystic door!

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed at the puzzlement of Ji Yuan and his group as he chuckled jovially, "Hohohoho. Just follow me tightly if you don''t want to be killed."

    Then he had extended his profound animus to envelop Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    Although Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress did not say anything but they were filled with awe at the profound power of Old Reverend Beiyuan and the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing; it was because they were Godly Immortals and they were giving them an insight to the wondrous divine cultivation realm of the Godly Immortals, which was beyond that of the immortal realm!

    By nature, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were actually the most talkative of the maidens but today they were extremely docile as they tried to probe the profound animus of the two Godly Immortals for any cultivation insights and abilities.

    "Follow me!" Old Reverend Beiyuan had said to Ji Yuan and his group. And he had stepped and disappeared beyond the mystic door.

    Ji Yuan and his group promptly followed him inside and they soon found themselves in a dark spatial space and there were thousands of brilliant stars all around them.

    There was no sight of the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was heard muttering, "She didn''t even bother to wait for us¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled and he immediately asked, "Where are we?!"

    Xiang Li who was in Ji Yuan''s soul sea was dazzled by the beauty of this ce: Big Brother, where are we? This ce is so beautiful¡­

    Anyang took a curious look around: Are in a trial spatial space? What are these lights that are around us? Are they really stars?

    This was a question that even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were going to ask too but Ji Yuan had seized the opportunity to ask first.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had turned to them with a jovialugh, "Do you really think that we are at the Goddess Star Pce yet? We are just at the very beginning and has yet to reach the Goddess Star Pce."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "So in which direction is the Goddess Star Pce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. After searching for thousands of years, we have finally found the location of the Goddess Star Pce¡­"

    "Thousands of years?!" Ji Yuan almost fainted. "Just how big is this spatial space?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. It is actually very big. I don''t think you can even find the Goddess Star Pce on your own. The Goddess Star Pce is actually in the center of the universe."

    Ji Yuan stammered, "The center of the universe?!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho. That''s right. These bright lights are actually the lights of the heavenly stars and along the side, you will be able to see gxies of stars. The distance between one star to another isn''t something that you can actually reach in your life time. But we are different. We are Godly Immortals. Hohoho."

 Chapter 647 The Goddess Star Palace (3)

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was soon taking Ji Yuan and his group through the dark spatial space; they were indeed moving very fast, way faster than the speed in the Hollow World.

    Ji Yuan asked weakly as his head began to feel wobbly, "We are now traveling at a 100 times faster than before?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Not really. While it looks like a 100 times faster in the great void but actually it is not real space that we are moving. Otherwise, we won''t be reaching the next star no matter at this speed."

    Ji Yuanughed curiously as he looked at Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "I am a little confused."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "I am twisting this spatial space with my godly immortal profound power in a distorted space. This is how the Godly Immortals travel in the dimensions. This is beyond your understandings. But the other two will be able to understand."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "This is how our Ancient Fortress is able to travel from the Deste Divine Realm to attack the Immortal Divine Realm. Ji Yuan, I will exin to you next time. When you have ascended to be an immortal in the future, you will be able to understand the dimensions of space much better."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ I can''t even fly you know¡­"

    Yun Chiughed, "Say, Old Reverend Beiyuan. You didn''t answer if you are going to give us some immortal tips to reach the 10th immortal positioning."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough jovially, "Hohohoho! It all depend on your predestined ordinances. I can''t help you much."

    "Just like you have be a disciple of your great mistress?" Bai Qianfeng asked curiously.

    "How did you be a disciple of your great mistress?" The Lovely Empress was also curious as she asked.

    "Or are you afraid to share with us?" Shui Xisi yfully smiled as she pulled a reverse psychology on Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    This time round Old Reverend Beiyuan began to loosen his tongue andughed, "Well, I am actually not the first. Before me, there was actually an immortal that got the chance but he screwed it up."

    "How did he screw it up and who is he?" Yun Chi asked curiously.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho. He called himself the Lord of the No Boundaries. My great mistress had put a test for him to kill an evil immortal or to cripple him. He had chosen to cripple that evil immortal and my great mistress did not make him her disciple. Hence he had lost the chance to cultivate beyond the 10th immortal positioning."

    The Lovely Empress asked with a perplexed look, "This only shows that he is a kind person. What is wrong with this choice?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. He is just suggesting that my great mistress is an unkind God Immortal. Anyway, that evil immortal soon manage to cultivate back to his original cultivation realm and he had killed the Lord of the No Boundaries and all his loved ones."

    Ji Yuan and his group: ¡­

    "I would have killed that evil immortal too." Ji Yuan began to mutter weakly.

    "Then how did you be a God Immortal?" Shui Xisi asked curiously.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "I am smarter than the Lord of No Boundaries. I choose to kill that evil immortal. Hohohoho."

    Yun Chi smiled weakly, "This sounds like the correct choice. But this doesn''t answer how you have managed to attain to the 10th immortal position, right?"

    She was trying to find out the secrets of bing a Divinity.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "I actually don''t know. I am always at the 10th immortal positioning. I''ve thought that you are asking how did I be my great mistress'' disciple?"<novelnext></novelnext>

    Ji Yuan and everyone: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly as she asked, "Then how did Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing be a disciple of the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to ponder, "Well, this is a very long story¡­"

    "You can tell us the shorten version." Ji Yuan bitterly said.

    "Hohohoho." Old Reverend Beiyuan seemed to think for a while before he answered, "Well, I actually don''t know. She isn''t too fond of talking with me."

    Ji Yuan and his group: ¡­

    Ji Yuan almost fainted as he asked with looks of disbelief, "And this is the shorten version?!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Actually I wanted to tell you how boring she is¡­"

    All of a sudden they seemed to have stopped for a little while; it was because they could suddenly see the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing in a battle with a dark abyssal monster.

    This dark abyssal monster had a hundred eyes and dozens of tenacles that wereshing against the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and it was enveloped in a dark animus.

    As for the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, she was enveloped in a brilliant golden light and even her skin was a metallic golden.

    The battle between them were fierce and earth shaking; the entire space seemed to be shaking as they fought with their profound powers!

    Old Reverend Beiyuan said to them, "Good! She is being slowed down now. Let''s go!"

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan frowned. "You are not helping her?!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Well, she won''t die so easily. If she really dies then this is her bad luck and her destiny."

    Ji Yuan and everyone were stunned: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said with a big frown, "I don''t care what you are thinking. I am going to help her now!"

    Shui Xisi was also indignant, "Yea, same here! She is in our party and we share the same goal¡­"

    "It is pointless to help her." Old Reverend Beiyuan pointed out with an amused look, "That dark abyssal monster is beyond your means to defeat it¡­"

    "Let''s go to help!" Yun Chi had interrupted Old Reverend Beiyuan as she began disyed her profound aura to envelop her party.

    At the same time, so did Bai Qianfeng as she expanded her profound aura to envelop everyone.

    They had enveloped their profound animus around Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress as they did not have the ability to move through the spatial space.

    Without a word more, Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi had departed from Old Reverend Beiyuan''s profound animus as they flew hastily toward the battle.

 Chapter 648 The Goddess Star Palace (4)

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was burning with a brilliant golden re from her profound animus. At this moment she was fighting a dark abyssal monster with her golden fingers that were disying flickers of golden swords that were being disyed by her profound power.

    Although her dozens of golden swords were extremely powerful and it hurts the dark abyssal monster that screamed maddening as it exploded with a brilliant light but it did not really seem to do much of a damage through the protective dark animus of this creature.

    Ji Yuan was startled for each of the golden swords that were hurled was more powerful than his grand cross sword art. At the same time, he was fascinated by the dark abyssal monster for he had never seen any creature with a totally dark profound animus before.

    But this did not stop him from hurling his two emperor-step divine swords as two powerful projectiles that were directed at this dark abyssal monster.

    Bai Qianfeng had revealed her two Abyssal Eyes and she was hurling yellow and red lightning at the dark abyssal monster.

    Yun Chi disyed her 24 sword wings into 24 whirling des and this was the very first time that Ji Yuan saw that she was using all her profound might to do so.

    As for Shui Xisi, she gave a soft shout before she hurled a long beam of profound energy with her divine sword.

    The Lovely Empress tagged along and did not do anything as she did not have any projectile attacks to use at this vast range.

    As expected, all their profound attacks did nothing to hurt this dark abyssal monster because this dark abyssal monster was truly a monster from beyond. However, they did manage to distract this dark abyssal monster as it momentarily turned to evaluate this new threat.

    This little distraction was enough for the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as she seized this opportunity for a melee profound attack as she summoned forth a brilliant golden ming sword with her left hand to chop off the head of this dark abyssal monster.

    However this was not enough to kill this dark abyssal monster and its severed body was now attempting to hastily regenerate itself.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing seemed to know this and she was already deploying all her golden swords together into the body of this dark abyssal monster as she imploded it to millions of dark matter pieces.

    This time round, the dark abyssal monster was finally dead and she heaved a soft sigh before she looked in the direction of Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    Although there were no smiles on her countenance but she murmured softly, "Thank you."

    By this time Old Reverend Beiyuan had joined Ji Yuan andughed jovially, "Hohohoho. I told you so. There is no need to help her. She can cope all by herself."

    Ji Yuan stared at Old Reverend Beiyuan and he wasughing bitterly, "That is one hell of a tough monster and you did not help her?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan grinned, "She did win, right?"

    Ji Yuan and everyone: ¡­

    An exhausted Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a look at Old Reverend Beiyuan before saying coldly to no one in particr before flying off, "Now you know why he is so unlikeable."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially as he enveloped his profound animus on Ji Yuan and his group before he hastily sped off after Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Hey! Don''t be so petty. I have full confidence in you, that''s why I am saying so. Hey, hey Yuexing! Wait for me! I don''t want to lose you in this space again¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing paused to turn her head back briefly before humming coldly, "Are you being sarcastic again?"

    When she had said so, she had began to speed off with Old Reverend Beiyuanughing as he sped hastily after her.

    Ji Yuan actually did not know what was wrong between them but if he were Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, he would also be irritated by him. It was because he had only watched silently while Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was battling with her life. It was no wonder that she was so pissed off by him.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He turned to look discreetly at Old Reverend Beiyuan for a while and wondered if he did so on purpose; it was because in the past he had often pretended not to aid Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, including his son so that they could learn to fight without depending on him.

    But he soon quit this notion of his for this Old Reverend Beiyuan really looked too cold and yful to be putting on an act.

    He had suddenly realized that he had been attacked by the dark animus of the dark abyssal monster earlier and that he must purged it immediately. And he was not the only one that had this problem; Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were also looking pale.

    As for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, they looked unaffected.

    Soon, they were off flying through the spatial space again.

    It took more than an hour before Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing seemed to have regained herposure and her profound animus had stabilized again.

    When that happened, she quickly catch up to Old Reverend Beiyuan and flew next to him to say coldly, "We are nearly at the Goddess Star Pce soon. Are you sure that you want to take them to that ce? They may not survive in that ce on their own."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. I can protect them. I am a mighty God Immortal."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed softly before she warned coldly, "Then you have better kept this part of your promise."

    With that she had sped ahead of Old Reverend Beiyuan but it was not much as she maintained a close proximity to the party.

    However Ji Yuan had overheard their conversations and he shivered to think to think that this Old Reverend Beiyuan would be doing his ''best'' to ''protect them''.

    Ji Yuan was muttering weakly to himself: Well, if you really want to protect me then why don''t you offer a hand to purge the dark animus that is afflicting me out first...

    The maidens in his group were also thinking likewise as they exchanged an awkward look at one another; none of them really trust this Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    It was a little longer before Ji Yuan had finally purged the dark animus out of his body and he began to inhale heavily to ask Old Reverend Beiyuan, "I am so far away from that dark abyssal monster and yet I was attacked by its dark animus when its hundreds of eyes looked at me. What kind of a monster is this dark abyssal monster?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "It is one of the first monsters of creation but it feeds off the lights of creation. We are just unlucky to encounter one today. These things are not thatmon and they are always solitary."

    Ji Yuan asked, "What lights of creation? I don''t have any."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Your aura is the light of creation. These things feed off your auras."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he suddenly realized why he felt so weak when he had disyed his profound animus, "It is stronger than any of the deste monsters that I have ever seen."

    Although the fight looked easy with the involvement of the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing but it was actually a most difficult fight.

    "Well, I don''t know why it is here. Usually they don''t go near to the center of the universe where the lights of creation are the brightest¡­" Old Reverend Beiyuan simply shrugged his shoulders.

    "You mean you can''t exin it?" Ji Yuan had cut him short.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially and did not answer Ji Yuan, "Hohoho. In a while time, we will reach the center of the universe¡­"

 Chapter 649 The Goddess Star Palace (5)

    Old Reverend Beiyuan soon took them to a beautiful blue with a big moon that was a quarter of the size of this blue.

    This blue seemed to be the third of the sun.

    Then heughed jovially, "Behold! We are now at the center of the universe and in this ce we can view the glory of the heavens."

    Ji Yuan said curiously, "We have reached? That blue is the center of the universe?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled as she interrupted Ji Yuan and Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Not yet. It is above this. Follow me!"

    And she had sped downward to a dusty canopy below this blue.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan immediately gathered his profound animus and sped toward her, "Wait for me!"

    As Old Reverend Beiyuan dashed into the canopy clouds below, it was not long before Ji Yuan and his group saw a magnificent mountain that was shaped like a beautiful pce and it wasposed entirely of golden celestiums.

    It was a most wondrous sight and its beauty stunned Ji Yuan and his group.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was smiling as she floated to the base of this mountain and there was a gigantic open door that was sealed by multiple star arrays.

    She echoed her voice to Ji Yuan and his group, "Behold and wee to the Goddess Star Pce!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes and one look, he knew that this golden door was sealed with many powerful immortal stary arrays and was beyond his ability to force it opened.

    He turned to look at Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress; hey were both shrugging their shoulders at the golden door that had appeared in front of them.

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "Don''t look at me like this."

    She paused to smile weakly at the group before saying weakly, "As if I can open this door."

    Bai Qianfeng appeared to be fascinated by the golden door and she was gasping, "This is more intricating than anything that I''ve seen in my life. This is really profound. Are we able to open this door on our own?"

    Yun Chiughed softly with a teaseful look, "It is always dangerous to try to unravel any immortal arrays. Better let these two Godly Immortals attempt to open this golden door. I don''t want to lose my life in this ce and I am awfully curious to know what is actually inside."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Actually I have the desire to look at the inside of this Goddess Star Pce as well."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng actually had the intention to discover the cultivation secrets to be a Beyond Divinity. It was especially so when they had witnessed how formidable Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan were.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing said aloud from where she was as she said coldly in the direction of Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Old Beiyuan, why are you still waiting there for? Are youing to help me to open this door or not?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan muttered weakly before he floated to where Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was, "I am Old Reverend Beiyuan and not Old Beiyuan. Don''t call me by this name when there are strangers around."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing ignored him as she said, "Old Beiyuan, you can go to that side of the door."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had already began to mp her fingers together and had raised it upward with a gesture as she disyed her profound power to force open the golden door.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan casually raised his fingers together with a jovialugher, "Hohohoho."

    When he wasughing, the golden door began to disy a shimmering bright light and it began to swing open slowly.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was quietly observing the two Godly Immortals and he noticed that Old Reverend Beiyuan looked much stronger even though he had a nonchnt look while Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing''s forehead was perspiring.

    He knew that Old Reverend Beiyuan was at the peak 10th immortal positioning while Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was at the middle immortal positioning. It seemed that the power disparity between the two Godly Immortals were actually quite big.

    Even Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were quietly noting the same too.

    As the golden door opened, the Lovely Empress was giggling with great loveliness to the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "s, big Sister, you are so strong and beautiful. I wish that I can help you but I am too weak. You are so impressive during the fight with the dark abyssal monster too."

    The Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled to the Lovely Empress as she looked a little awkward, "It is nothing. You are beautiful as well."

    The Lovely Empress smiled coyly, "Not as beautiful as big sister."

    Shui Xisi muttered almost incoherently to herself: This Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress is so shameless. She is already trying to hook up to her¡­

    But before she could finish with her thoughts, she was already shing next to the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and was smiling coyly, "Big sister, you are indeed the most beautiful maiden among us. I am also in awe of you¡­"

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were quietly cursing Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: The two of you are really too shameless¡­

    Even Ji Yuan was covering his face as he muttered almost incoherently, "Too shameless. More shameless than me¡­"

    Then he went up to Old Reverend Beiyuan andughed awkwardly, "Brother Old Reverend Beiyuan, I am so impressed by you. You just raise your fingers and this golden door is opened just like this. It is simply too astonishing!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough jovially, "Really? Hohohoho!"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yun Chi said after she saw that the golden door had been fully opened by now, "We should be able to enter this Goddess Star Pce now. The golden door is now opened."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "True, true! Let''s go inside right now. I can''t wait to go to room 33."

    With that he had already sped past in and a shimmering spatial space seemed to have been triggered as he went past the golden door.

    From outside, no one could see the sight of Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    He was soon followed by the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi.

    Ji Yuan took a look at Yun Chi as he muttered, "Actually I am not so eager to go inside. What if my Goddess Tear isn''t able to help him to enter room 33?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Then you are in deep trouble."

    "Very deep trouble, my lord. So you''ve better bootlick him in a much more impressive way." Bai Qianfeng was smiling bitterly.

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He began to shake his head bitterly to protest, "He can''t attack celestials right? Maybe the two of you will also be in deep trouble since the two of you are not celestials."

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

 Chapter 650 Inside The Goddess Star Palace

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was already waiting for them as Ji Yuan entered into the darkness of the Goddess Star Pce as he emerged from it.

    The inside of the Goddess Star Pce startled Ji Yuan; it was not what he was expecting to see. It was arge golden hallway and it appeared that there were three portals in front of them, on the left, middle and right side of the golden hallway.

    Above the dome of the hallway was an imagery of a masked helm man in ck robe surrounded by cultivators and he was ughtering them with his profound ck swords. Only a veiled maiden in purple appeared to be standing to face the masked helm man but she too, was injured under the might of his profound assaults.

    This imagery was so profound that it caught the attention of Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Ji Yuan immediately.

    As for Old Reverend Beiyuan, he wasughing jovially and was looking at their awestruck looks. "Hohohoho, wee to the inside of the Goddess Star Pce."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously as he continued to look at the imagery at the top, "This canvas certainly looks impressive."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Of course this is impressive. This is the divine battle between the Boundless Sovereign Demon God and my mistress. In that battle, my mistress had saved the Six Divine Realms from destruction by the Great Sovereign Demon. Hohohoho."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin at the reply before heughed softly, "Well, it doesn''t look like your mistress is winning though."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan growled unhappily when he had heard Ji Yuan, "Foolish young man! Do you know how powerful the Boundless Sovereign Demon God really is? You simply have no idea! Have you ever heard of his Obliterating Godly Sword of Wrath? That is his demonic sword and he had taken down countless number of my God Immortal Race with his Profound Obliterating Wrath that are shaped like his demonic sword! And only my great mistress is able to able to take him down despite her injuries."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly and was awkward; the canvas imagery really did not portray a victory for the Great Beyond Goddess and so how could he know about it?

    But he quickly said with a weakughter, "Well, at least the Boundless Sovereign Demon God is now dead now."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan continued to growl unhappily, "The Boundless Sovereign Demon God is different from the God Immortal Race. He is one with the great void and cannot be truly killed. As long as the Obliterating Godly Sword of Wrath is sealed, the Boundless Sovereign Demon God can''t be resurrected."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "So this Obliterating Godly Sword of Wrath is sealed by the Great Beyond Goddess, right? So we are all safe?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nodded slowly, "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan nodded with a soft relief, "I wonder why the Great Beyond Goddess did not destroy the Obliterating Godly Sword of Wrath?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan gave him an annoyed look, "That demonic sword is born with the Boundless Sovereign Demon God. And do you think that you can destroy such a demonic weapon as you pleased?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, I am just suggesting. You don''t have to be so upset about this. I am merely a celestial and not an immortal. Even an immortal may not know anything about this too."

    As he said that, he took a meaningful nce at Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi; they were looking a little flushed as well.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly interrupted everyone as she turned to face Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Enough with the talks. They have only 7 days to be in this ce and this ce only opens every 500 years."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was still growling as he said unhappily, "True, true¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing continued, "Every time we have failed the trials here, we will be kicked out of the Goddess Star Pce. Although we can enter throughout the year but we have to pay a heavy price to replenish our profound strength. If you have not found the Goddess'' Tear, I am reluctant to enter the Goddess Star Pce in such a short time after myst failure."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan continued to mutter weakly, "True, true¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing turned to Ji Yuan and his party to say coolly, "This is but the 1st room and we have 3 portals here. In this case, this is the easiest and we already know that the left portal is the portal to the next room. Every time we enter a new room, there will be an additional portal. Therefore room 32 will have 34 portals. We are currently struck there."

    Ji Yuan nodded and asked, "So what if we choose the wrong portal?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled coldly, "Then we have to take a trial sessful and be kicked from the Goddess Star Pce. I can assure you that you don''t want to fail it because none of you will be able to survive it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually we only have to follow you to the correct rooms, right? So it is quite safe for us."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled slowly, "You seem to have forgot that I''ve mentioned to you that the Goddess Star Pce is fraughted with dangers. From time to time, the guardians of the Goddess Star Pce will manifest and if we are unlucky enough, you''ll see them."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ I really don''t want to see them at all."

    But he asked curiously, "Hmm, so you''ve searched all the portals to reach room 32? If there are 7 of you, isn''t it only a matter of time for you to find room 33? Maybe all of you should work together to find the right portal to room 33."

    This time Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was unhappy as she answered, "Do you really think it is easy to ovee the trials here? It takes us a lot of time to discover the right portals and moreover the portals reset every 500 years."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "The portals will reset each time?! Then how did you even reach room 32 in a single year? I hope this isn''t your first few attempts or else we are screwed for sure."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing lifted her right finger and pointed to the canvas imagery of the Boundless Sovereign Demon God, "Did you not see that his eyes are looking to the left? This is the clue."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You mean every 500 years the direction of his eyes will change?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing nodded slowly, "Now you get it."

    Ji Yuan almost fainted, "That is creepy¡­"

    But the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had already turned around as she fluttered her cloak to enter the left portal.

    When the Old Reverend Beiyuan saw her moving toward the left portal, he hastily moved to follow her.

    Ji Yuan followed behind Old Reverend Beiyuan and asked, "You remember how to go to Room 32, don''t you?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "Not really. This year, I''ve only managed to reach Room 20. I was recuperating until you guyse along."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "You mean you don''t remember which portals to take? I mean the clues in the room?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan took a look at Ji Yuan and bitterly said, "You think too simple. Do you really think that the clues are so obvious each time?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered what the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had said about them not able to survive a single trial here and he had suddenly freaked out.

 Chapter 651 So Typical Of Ji Yuan

    Ji Yuan was actually thest person to be entering the portal to the next room.

    In front of him, were Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress. They were actually thest to have entered the portal.

    As Ji Yuan walked behind them, he had suddenly pinched Shui Xisi''s butt from behind and this caused Shui Xisi to have a flush in her countenance.

    Shui Xisi resisted the urge to turn around as she was walking side by side with the Lovely Empress while Ji Yuanughed softly from behind.

    But his antics were not lost on either Xiang Li or Anyang as they expressed a face-palmed look when they saw what Ji Yuan was doing.

    Ji Yuan had wanted to pinch the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as well but he had resisted the urge as he did not know what she would react into.

    As Ji Yuan watched the two of them entered into the portal, he had suddenly turned around with a grin as he looked at the canvas imagery on top. "We are not done yet. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ???

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed Xiang Li as his emperor-step divine sword and had unleashed a flurry of sword energies to the top and exploding the canvas imagery into a burst of dusty cloud.

    A startled Xiang Li asked with shock: Big Brother, what and why are you doing that for?

    Ji Yuan answered with a loud chuckle, "This masked man has insulted the Great Beyond Goddess and I don''t like his face so I''m destroying his annoying face."

    Anyang said weakly in his soul sea: He doesn''t even have a face, much less how annoying is his face.

    Ji Yuan answered nonchntly with a slow shrug, "I just don''t like him towering over the Great Beyond Goddess. The sight of him is just too annoying for my liking."

    Xiang Li giggled softly: I totally agree with Big Brother¡­

    Anyang pointed to the dome on top with a weak smile: Do you think that your puny attacks will actually have any impact on the painting above? This ce is meant to withstand the might of a God Immortal.

    She was right; when the dusty clouds had dispersed, the canvas imagery above was still intact and there was no damage.

    Ji Yuan was not someone who would give up so easily so he summoned Anyang as his other emperor-step divine sword while disying his spirit entity which immediately raised his celestial limitation to that of an eighth immortal positioning immortal cultivator. "We shall see about this. After all, I am a Sword Immortal now. Hahaha¡­"

    He immediately proceeded to disy his two shining sword spirits in both his forearms as he summoned his Sword Domain which shed barrages of profound swords all around him.

    With a mighty disy of his mental willpower, Ji Yuan shouted mightily. "All go!"

    Immediately hundreds of barrages of profound swords began to rush forward into barrages of swords as it poured into the canvas imagery above, exploding into waves of profound sword energies upon impact and the dust clouds were even bigger than the first attack.

    Ji Yuan was looking pleased as thest of the barrages of swords began to explode upon the dome above him, "I swear I am not Ji Yuan if I can''t even make a dent out of you¡­"

    To his startled shock, his keen eyesight had suddenly noticed that the canvas imagery was still intact and he was muttering weakly, "This is impossible¡­"

    Anyang sighed softly: I''ve told you so already. So, what is your new name now?<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled: How about Yuan Ji then?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to reply to Xiang Li, a dark sword energy imagery from the canvas imagery above had suddenlye to live and had pierced into Ji Yuan''s heart.

    This profound attack was so fast that Ji Yuan had no time to react and he was not expecting a painting to suddenly attack him.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were shocked by this.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly screaming in loud pain and he could feel that his heart had been pierced and it was as though he was being killed all of a sudden. He was in such loud agony that he was now rolling on the ground and he was shivering with agony!

    Xiang Li and Anyang were suddenly crying as they could feel the great agony that Ji Yuan was suddenly experiencing as they shared the same empathy.

    This was the very first time that Ji Yuan had experienced such great pain as though this was the very first time that he had experienced such great pain in his life.

    Ji Yuan was shivering with cold sweat on the ground and he was yelling aloud even though he had always thought that he was immune to pain but this time it was not.

    This was worse than death!

    It was because a death man would not even feel such agonizing pain!

    Anyang was suddenly saying to Xiang Li: Look, there is something in our lord''s soul sea¡­

    Indeed, a dark sword had suddenly appeared inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    But as soon as it had appeared, it had suddenly dissipated again. And when it did, Ji Yuan no longer felt any pain and he had suddenly recovered.

    Ji Yuan had also seen the dark sword in his soul sea and was greatly perplexed.

    How could he be possibly attacked by a canvas imagery? Or maybe that is the power of the 10th immortal positioning? This is the profound power of the beyond divinity cultivators?

    Ji Yuan struggled to stand up and he was white with ashen while muttering, "What exactly happened just now¡­"

    Xiang Li was delighted that Ji Yuan was still alive and she was beaming with tears: Big Brother, you are alright now¡­

    Even Anyang was trembling with fright at what happened earlier and there were tears in her eyes: My lord, you are alright now¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly and he was still being dumbfounded by the earlier experiences. He tried to make light of the situation by muttering, "Nowadays, even an imagery holds grudges like a nasty animal."

 Chapter 652 Room 2

    Chapter 652 Room 2

    When Ji Yuan had entered through the portal to Room 2, he was looking ashen and was even staggering.

    This shocked Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu; they were startled and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was gasping softly. "What happens to you?"

    On the other hand, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan were returning Ji Yuan a growled look as though they were asking him what had happened to him in their minds.

    Ji Yuan saw that they were in a simrrge golden hallway as Room 1. The so-called rooms were not a small room at all but a gigantic golden hallway littered with portals. However, this time round, there were 4 portals instead of 3; one portal was on the left, two portals were in the middle while there was a portal to the right.

    As with the first room, there was also a picturesque imagery in the middle of the golden hallway which was shaped like a dome.

    Ji Yuan began to said immediately as he clutched his heart, "You won''t believe it but I was attacked by that masked man and his profound sword energies pierced my heart¡­"

    "Hohohohoho¡­" Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough aloud. "Young man, you really know how to joke. Just like me, hohohohoho¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''m not joking, you know¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan continued tough jovially, "There are no signsof any injuries on you, young man. Do you think that you can hide your condition from my sight with my supreme divine sense?"

    Ji Yuan continued to protest, "Look, I got pierced by a sword energy and there is even a dark sword inside my soul sea now."

    "And where is it now?" Old Reverend Beiyuan snided him with a chuckle.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; the dark sword hadpletely dissipated into his soul sea and it was nowhere to be found. Moreover he had alsopletely recovered from his agonies earlier and appeared to bepletely unharmed.

    How is he going to exin this to them?

    Suddenly, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing began to hum coldly in their directions, "Enough of your jokes and pretenses. We need to keep up our guards up in this ce. If you have so much energetic stamina to waste, use it for the room trials instead."

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan frowned. "I''m really not joking. I got attacked by that masked man in the canvas imagery earlier."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing answered coldly, "It is impossible."

    Ji Yuan raised his voice to protest, "Maybe you can consider it as a possibility. What if there is a profound art that can be triggered in the canvas imagery and he really attacked me?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan could not helpughing even louder while Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing firmly said coldly, "There is no such profound art. Are you even a cultivator at all? You should tell through your divine sense that there is no profound formation in that canvas imagery earlier. Enough with your talks or don''t me me for sealing your mouth."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck? I really got attacked. No one believes me?!

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both protesting loudly in Ji Yuan''s soul sea even though no one but Ji Yuan could hear them: Big Brother/ My lord is speaking the truth! He''s really got attacked! We saw a dark sword in his soul sea earlier except that it just disappeared mysterious¡­

    Ji Yuan had turned to look at Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress; it was alright if these God Immortals did not believe him but at least his maidens would, right?

    But when he saw the almost silent giggles on their countenances, he was left cursing to himself; none of them believed in his story.

    Just as he was cursing silently, Shui Xisi had suddenly flown next to him and she wasughing as she cuddled him, "I believe in you¡­"

    Shui Xisi was winking at him and she was rubbing him with her body as she whispered softly, "Hehe, I know you only too well¡­"

    She had purposely dragged her words as though she was implying that Ji Yuan had a real purpose in faking his story. It was quite obvious to her that Ji Yuan was pretending to be injured so that he would have a chance to hold his maidens. Therefore, she had pretended to believe in Ji Yuan''s story.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "That''s not really what I want¡­"

    He was suddenly interrupted by the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who was giggling softly as she grabbed Ji Yuan''s other arm, "Ji Yuan, you look badly injured. Come, let me support you while you stand."

    The Lovely Empress had also thought that Ji Yuan was staging a pretense and when she saw that Shui Xisi was cuddling next to him, she got envious immediately and she was also cuddling Ji Yuan with her body warmly.

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "Men are just animals on heat."

    Bai Qianfeng had lowered her head and was looking the other way, too awkward to look at Ji Yuan. She was actually thinking to herself why she had such a lecherous lord even in thepany of strangers.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly but he could not resist grabbing hard the waists of Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress, "It isn''t what you all think¡­ that is the whole truth¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled as she hugged Ji Yuan even more tightly, allowing his fingers to move discreetly down her waist. "This is the whole truth¡­"

    Even the Lovely Empress was nodding and giggling as she flushed hotly for Ji Yuan was moving his fingers between her butt¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was looking displeased and impatient as she hummed coldly, "In this room, the Boundless Sovereign Demon God is pointing his sword to the middle and his eyes are looking to the middle right. Therefore we should take the middle portal to the left."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly noticed the canvas imagery on the dome above; this time there was only the Boundless Sovereign Demon God and he was seated regally on his throne. He had his demonic sword pointing to the middle and he was looking left as well.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing said, "It is rtively easy in the first few rooms but it will get increasing difficult. Follow me quick."

    With that she had vanished into the portal that was in the left side in the middle of therge golden hallway.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough jovially as he entered the portal after Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Hohohoho. Young man, maybe I can try your joke sometimes on Qi Yuexing to see if she would hug me instead. Hohohoho¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    That isn''t my intention and I am not joking.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had also quickly vanished into the portal.

    Ji Yuan was pulled along by Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress into the portal and they were giggling at almost the same time, "Nice joke."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Maybe this is a nice joke after all."

    After all, he got to hug two peerless maidens by his side now by pretending to be injured.

 Chapter 653 The Beginning of the Great Void

    Chapter 653 The Beginning of the Great Void

    Room 3 was also simr to Room 2 and Room 1. But this time, there were 5 portals; 2 on left, 1 in middle and 2 on the right side.

    Once again, Ji Yuan saw the masked man and he was standing with his sword facing the right hallway where there were 2 portals. But his eyes were looking to the left.

    Ji Yuan muttered to everyone, "What the heck is this? So is it left or right?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. It is to the right. Did you not notice his hand gesture?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "What the hell?! Not his eyes?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan frowned, "Do you think that it is the same clue all the time?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How do I know the clue will change?!

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing interrupted and disyed a rare smile, "I saw Old Beiyuan taking the wrong turn not so long ago. That is why he remembers."

    Ji Yuan burst outughing, "So he takes the wrong turn? So who isughing at who? Haha."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan ceased hisughter immediately and he bitterly said to Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "You are only a little luckier than me. And don''t call me Old Beiyuan again. I''m Old Reverend Beiyuan."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled as she shed to the second portal on the right where the hand gesture was pointing, "Old Beiyuan, don''t just stand there. Keep moving."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan grumbled to himself before moving slowly toward the portals to the right side of the golden hallway, "I am your senior. Do you think that you can order me to walk fast? Then I shall purposely walk like a tortoise¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he looked at Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress; he did not know what was up with the two God Immortals who were always at loggerheads.

    But he could not resist asking after Old Reverend Beiyuan who seemed to be a little more friendly with his casual talks. "Actually, I am just curious. Isn''t this ce the Goddess Star Pce? Why is that we have so many imageries of this annoying masked man? I certainly don''t mind if it is the imagery of the Great Beyond Goddess."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan paused in his steps and so did the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing who was about to enter into the next portal to Room 4.

    "Well¡­" Old Reverend Beiyuan turned to look at Ji Yuan. "This isn''t a terrible secret anyway. This ce is the birthce of the Boundless Sovereign Demon God. So you will see him in almost every room."

    Ji Yuan was startled and so did Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    "This is his birthce? Isn''t he born with the void?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan casually said, "That is right. This ce however, is also the center of the universe. This is where the void and the universe first begin."

    Ji Yuan muttered slowly, "So this is his birthce and where the void starts¡­"

    Yun Chi was suddenly excited and her eyes were beaming, "I''ve heard that if one were to reach the beginning of void then they would also be able to unravel the secrets of cultivation. So this is the ce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nodded slowly, "After the 10th room, you will be able to stumble upon some cultivation secrets if you are capable."

    Yun Chi was smiling now, "How can I miss such an obvious thing. The center of the universe is where the great void begins."

    Even Bai Qianfeng was excited because this could mean a certain breakthrough in their cultivation methods. Any breakthroughs from the 9th immortal positioning onward were extremely precious and any meaningful cultivation methods were worth a try.

    As for Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi, they were less concerned with the cultivation secrets in this ce. It was because they knew that it was beyond their means toprehend. All they wanted to do were to get out of this ce alive.

    This was precisely what Ji Yuan had in mind as he thought: I don''t care if you are able to escape out of this prison by reaching Room 33. I am getting out of this ce in 7 days¡­ wait, 6 more days. So I''ll try to waste as much time as possible in this ce. Being with these two God Immortals is much safer than being outside this ce.

    That was his n and possibly his maidens'' ns as well.

    The only problem was, what if they were to take the wrong turn and screwed him and his maidens instead?

    Judging from what Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had told him, it seemed to him that previously they had reached Room 33 and not this time yet, with Old Reverend Beiyuan reaching Room 20 before he got kicked out.

    While Ji Yuan was left to strategize his ns, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi were secretly looking at each other and they were thinking instead: We are going to waste as much time as possible in this ce. Hopefully we may unravel some of the beyond divinity cultivation secrets. Even if we can''t, the divine aura in this ce is stronger than any spiritual and deste auras elsewhere and this may be useful to us...

    Ji Yuan could not resist shouting after the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as he abandoned Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu in his arms, "Hoho, so which room are you previously at before you''ve encountered us?"

    This was important to him for he was Ji Yuan and he was never without any ns.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a cold look at him before she answered, "Room 18."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her reply, he nearly fainted on the spot!

    This unexpected answer was even worse than Old Reverend Beiyuan and he was expecting that she would fare much better judging from her supposedly sess in Room 2.

    "This is¡­" Ji Yuan was quite speechless.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing interrupted him coldly, "And can you don''tugh like Old Beiyuan. This ''hoho'' thing is irritating and this is what caused me to be struck in the same prison as him in the first ce."

    While Ji Yuan was bitterly smiling to himself, Old Reverend Beiyuan was muttering weakly from behind. "How can this be irritating. This is my signatureughter. Also, please don''t call me Old Beiyuan. I am Old Reverend Beiyuan, you know."

 Chapter 654 The Gambit (1)

    Chapter 654 The Gambit (1)

    The next few rooms were almost identical to the first 3 rooms, with the same golden hallway but having 1 more portal each time that Ji Yuan and his group were in a new room.

    Another thing that was identical was that the Boundless Sovereign Demon God was always in the canvas above the hallway dome. As for the Great Beyond Goddess, sometimes she was there and sometimes she was not. There was also sometimes the depiction of the other God Immortals as well and when they did appear, it was always a battle between them and the Boundless Sovereign Demon God.

    It was rtive quick for the first few rooms since Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan had already been here previously.

    After Room 18, it was actually Old Reverend Beiyuan that led the way and he wasughing jovially as he led them through to the right portals in Room 18 and Room 19.

    There was a look of displeasure on the countenance of Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as she followed Old Reverend Beiyuan into the portal but she said nothing.

    Ji Yuan and the rest of his group, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were always behind them.

    He was as usual was supported by Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress even though he hadpletely recovered from his ordeal in Room 1. However, it did not hurt him to continue on his little act.

    But still he could not resistughing softly and looking at both Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress with great tenderness.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng on the other hand were excited and they were looking at the picturesque canvas on the top with great interest, especially the ones with the cultivators disying their gestures during their battle with the Boundless Sovereign Demon God; they were in awe of the power of the God Immortals Race and they were even more in awe with the Boundless Sovereign Demon God and the golden runes that were being disyed in sequence which they had never seen before.

    Both of them immediately proceeded to memorize as many of the runes as possible that were being disyed by the God Immortals and the Boundless Sovereign Demon God since this could shed a breakthrough in their cultivations.

    The two of them seemed to have agreed silently that this trip was really the worthiest trip in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they were excited at the number of new cultivation techniques that they had picked up.

    When they were in Room 20, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan had paused for a while to evaluate the canvas imagery above them.

    There were 22 portals this time and there were 9 on the left, 7 in the middle and 6 on the left.

    This time there was only the Boundless Sovereign Demon God and there were a dozen demonic eyes on his demon sword and his sword was pointing left and he was looking to the middle.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had turned to look at the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "So which way should we go now?"

    However the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing did not reply to him and she was studying the canvas imagery intently.

    It was only then that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had also turned around to see that Ji Yuan was chatting softly with Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    Yun Chi smiled and said softly to Bai Qianfeng, "I knew that he is putting on an act ever since. He doesn''t look like an injured man. These two maidens just throw themselves at him. They are too shameless and moreover one of them is my disciple and the other one is the daughter of my enemy the Great Goddess Alice."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled awkwardly and replied defensively, "Our lord just needs some attention. Maybe he is just bored."

    Yun Chi took another look at Ji Yuan and sighed, "He doesn''t look bored anymore and he seems to be enjoying himself."

    She was right.

    Bai Qianfeng began to fluster immediately as she obviously knew what was going on.

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were both flushing hotly around Ji Yuan and it was because he did not keep his unclean hands from groping them from behind even though they had others in their group.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was suddenlyughing jovially, "Hohoho, I think we should go¡­"

    The Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly said, "Left. We should go left."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan frowned, "We should go middle and pick the most left portal."

    The Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed coldly, "We should go left and pick the middle portal instead."

    "Middle!"

    "Left!"

    All of a sudden they were quarreling over the directions.

    Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were suddenly smiling weakly; it was because if these two God Immortals had picked the wrong choices, then this would mean the end of their cultivation life.

    Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi had no mood to study the canvas imagery at this time and they were staring at the portals and the clues given so that they would find the correct portal.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu asked nervously, "What is this trial that we will be facing if we pick the wrong portal again?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I didn''t think that they mention it."

    Shui Xisi smiled bitterly, "I think they did say that we can''t survive any of the trials as far as I can remember."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly turned around with an awkward look, "Don''t worry. I have a n for this."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, not knowing if he shouldugh or cry. "So, what exactly is your n?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "Grand Holy Saintess Yuexing and I will take turn to enter the portal, of course. In this way, your group won''t have to take any of the trials."

    Yun Chi said weakly as she interrupted, "Then how do we know if the choice that you''ve picked is the right one? How do we know if we should follow after you?"

    "That''s right." Ji Yuan added in with a bitter smile. "What if you''re wrong?"

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu weakly said as well, "Yea, what if you are wrong? Don''t tell me you have a way to tell us that?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "Of course I do have a way. All you need to do is to wait me in this ce for a full day. I will be back as soon as possible. Isn''t my n brilliant or not?"

    Ji Yuan raised his golden eyes to look with shock at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Have you ever considered the possibility that you will die inside that portal and you will nevere back?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan looked a little shock, "Indeed, I''ve never considered that as a possibility."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "But there is a possibility that I may be too serious injured. Maybe you should wait for me for 2 days or more? Just in case, I couldn''t muster the profound strength to enter the Goddess Star Pce again. You should know how tough the gates of the Goddess Star Pce are right? Also, I may need more days if I keep failing to pick the portals. There are no way my profound cultivation pills can regenerate my profound strength so quickly too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuan eximed weakly, "This sounds better like having no n at all."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough jovially, "I''m d that you like my n after all."

    The Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed coldly, "Can''t you tell that this Ji Yuan is being sarcastic?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­"

 Chapter 655 The Gambit (2)

    Chapter 655 The Gambit (2)

    Old Reverend Beiyuan turned to the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "So Junior Sister Yuexing, are you going into the portal first?"

    When he had said that, there were a look of disbelief in Ji Yuan''s golden eyes and were Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to blurt out why Old Reverend Beiyuan did not want to go first, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had turned coldly to look at Old Reverend Beiyuan and said deadly cold. "You are my senior, why don''t we try your theory works or not first."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho, I can''t allow myself to be right all time so I''m giving my Junior Sister Yuexing a chance to prove yourself."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed before she turned around to the center of the hallway and started to meditate without saying any word.

    This stunned Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Junior Sister Yuexing¡­ erm¡­ Yuexing, you are not going first this time?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing looked up unhappily before saying slowly, "You didn''t bother to help me just now when I am fighting the abyssal creature. Naturally my profound strength is depleted. Therefore I need to cultivate back my profound strength first. Maybe I am wrong. So Old Beiyuan, why don''t you go first instead?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan returned an awkward look before turning to look at Ji Yuan and his group, "Well, this time round is my turn. Wait for me here and don''t wander around."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "We won''t so don''t worry about this. Take care."

    "Hohohoho, I won''t. If I didn''t return after a day, jump inside the portal after me!" Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially before shing into the portal that he supposed was right.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he watched Old Reverend Beiyuan shed into the portal in the middle before he turned to smile bitterly in the direction of Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    "You know, I didn''t want to bust his bubbles but we won''t seed in reaching Room 33."

    "Why?" Shui Xisi giggled softly.

    The Lovely Empress giggled as well, "The n sounds good. At least we don''t have to take any risk. "Are you worried if one day is not enough for us to validate if this portal is safe

    Ji Yuan turned to look intently at the Lovely Empress, "You mean you didn''t figure one day isn''t enough yet?"

    The Lovely Empress frowned softly, "He looks strong. Even if that is not the right portal, I''m sure that he would be back in less a day very soon."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and said bitterly, "There isn''t the point. The point is that even if he is right in picking all the portals, we don''t have 13 days to wait for him. Moreover, we are left with 6 days remaining now."

    When the Lovely Empress had heard Ji Yuan, she was gasping softly and so was Shui Xisi.

    Even Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were startled; it was because they were being distracted by the intricate runes in the dome above that they were not paying any attention to Old Reverend Beiyuan ns.

    It was precisely because it was Old Reverend Beiyuan''s ns that no one was paying particr attention to it except for Ji Yuan of course.

    Shui Xisi blurted out, "Then why didn''t you say so earlier?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "He didn''t let me say anything and he was not interested to talk to me except for his junior sister."

    He turned to look at the meditating Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and said weakly in her direction by raising his voice. "Erm, surely you have already known of the ws in God Immortal Old Reverend Beiyuan n by now. So we need a new n, right? I mean, surely you''ve already known of his wed n and already has a new n for us. And you have sent him inside just to punish him for not aiding you earlier, right?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing opened her misty golden eyes and lifted her head to look intently at Ji Yuan seemingly in a new light, "You are right, celestial. His n indeed has a w. However, I didn''t think there is such a w in the first ce and I''ve no other ns. I''ve a whole year to reach Room 32 again while you have only 7 days. This is something that I''ve failed to consider."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "So what are we supposed to do now? We can''t possibly take a gambit in each room, right? We only have 6 days left."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing asked softly, "What do you supposed is the better n then?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "You are asking me for a n, right? I didn''t hear you wrongly?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing did not look awkward and instead she was nodding slowly to say, "Indeed. What do you propose?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes in disbelief and he turned around to look with equal disbelief at Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi to look for a way out of this question.

    Bai Qianfeng said panicky, "My lord, surely you have a better n, right? You always have a n."

    Shui Xisi was suddenly giggling again, "I''ve forgotten that this is Ji Yuan that we are talking about. Ji Yuan always has a n or else he won''t be mentioning it. After all, he is the one that have gotten us so far deep into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth without a lot of troubles."

    Yun Chi was smiling too, "I must admit that Ji Yuan is good in oveing the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    When the Lovely Empress had heard them, she was looking with a great sense of relief. "I know it."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before returning a sheepish look at the maidens, "Actually, I don''t have a n and that is why I am asking you this question."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Even the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had a slight movement in her meditating pose when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Are you all not going to help with forming a new n?"

    Shui Xisi looked stunned before she bitterly said, "If only my Sister Feifei is here, she can help us to form a good n."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly at the mention of Shui Xisi''s sister: Indeed, if only my Jiajia is here, she always has a n. Now where all the smarter maidens now like Shangguan Yan and Xue Qianxue?

 Chapter 656 The Gambit (3)

    Chapter 656 The Gambit (3)

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing said nonchntly to Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress. "Don''t worry about that old freak. He will be back in less than a day. In fact, less than you think it is. His main problem will be in opening the gate of the Goddess Star Pce all by himself."

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed that Old Reverend Beiyuan would be back so quickly but he asked nevertheless, "Erm, that is good to hear hahaha. So just exactly how many times have the two of you been inside this ce so far?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing answered nonchntly, "Five times for me and about ten times for him."

    Ji Yuan looked a little stunned at the answer as he stammered, "Senior Old Reverend Beiyuan rate of failure is so high?"

    He had thought that Old Reverend Beiyuan was way stronger since he had a higher cultivation level and also because he had reached more rooms than Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    Even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi looked a little startled as well and they were questioning their sanity now.

    When Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing saw their subtle reactions, she curled a smile and it was a rare thing to see. "He is as ever as impatient as before while I studied the canvas imageries for the hints."

    Ji Yuan weakly heaved a soft sigh, "He looks quick to me."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled coldly, "Why do you think he had failed in this room previously?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I have actually forgotten that this is the second time that old monstrous freak is here in this ce¡­

    Damn, I should''ve let Grand Holy Saintess Qi makes this attempt first.

    But heughed instead, "Well, I wonder how many times can he attempts this trial if he keeps failing like this."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled, "Not many times more. He has already extended most of his profound strength in his attempts already."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What do you mean? He looks energetic to me."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing disyed a rare yful smile, "He did not recuperate before each of his attempts and was too hasty. Now that he has found you, he is even more eager to barge into the Goddess Star Pce. Why then do you think that he needs my help to open the Star Goddess Pce? And why didn''t you think he is not aiding me earlier?"

    Ji Yuan frowned and it suddenly dawned to him of the real reason why Old Reverend Beiyuan was so passive.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes in the direction of Yun Chi and Shui Xisi before he chuckled, "Haha. You''re not afraid that he may die in this ce? After all, the two of you are prot¨¦g¨¦s."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing answered nonchntly, "He won''t die inside the trial portals. If he fails it, he will be put into a temporary stasis sleep for a while. But I can''t say the same for you. The only thing that can kill him in this ce are the nasty guardians here and you probably would be meeting them soon."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Hahaha, the guardians sound dangerous since they can even kill a Beyond Divinity God."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing nodded and answered, "They are indeed dangerous and is really pretty strong. If possible, don''t fight them and don''t let them merge together."

    Shui Xisi seized to ask curiously, "What do you mean by that they can merge together?"

    "When they merged together, they will be even stronger and unkible. Usually theyes from all sides and they won''t merge if you can prevent it. Even I am not their match when they''ve merged."

    Ji Yuan was stunned and so were the maidens, "You are not their match?! Then how about us?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing coldly smiled, "You will be ripped apart in no time."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Lovely Empress: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress could not resist asking with a surrendered voice, "Then how do you all survive this long against the guardians of the Star Goddess Pce?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing chuckled silently and she seemed to know what was the Lovely Empress was thinking, "We just have to jump into the nearest portal and we will be safe. At most, we just have to sleep for a couple of hundred years as a punishment. To us, this doesn''t matter at all since this entire world is like a prison to us."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi and Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled coldly, "But for your group, you can die inside the portals since the portals aren''t meant for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan finally said after a brief pause of stunned silence, "So this ce is like a prison and the guardians are like the wardens¡­"

    The Lovely Empress turned to look at Ji Yuan and said exasperatingly, "What do you mean? This is not the same¡­"

    Shui Xisi suddenly interrupted her, "Don''t worry about what Ji Yuan had just said. He is always thinking funny but sometimes, he may be able to get us out of the situations by thinking funny."

    When Bai Qianfeng had heard Shui Xisi, she began to giggle softly when she suddenly remembered their times together but quickly suppressed it as this was a bad ce for her tough, especially in the light of their current situation.

    Even Yun Chi had an awkward look as she turned to look at Ji Yuan¡­

    She is the Death God Mingwang, a lofty figure to be feared, and she still cannot believe that she has fallen into Ji Yuan''s hands until today

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could see that the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was looking intently at him and he was suddenly awkward, "Hahaha. I know that I am handsome but you don''t have to look at me like this."

    When he had said that, the expressions on Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were looking a little flushed.

    However the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing merely shed her fingers and said, "Young celestial, you are too sure of your ugly looks. I am not interested in you and is just looking at your soul sea. It is interesting to see that you have two sentient spirit entities inside your soul sea. One of them must be the Goddess Tear. I wonder who the other is."

    Ji Yuan was slightly hurt when he had heard her: I would be ugly?! This is impossible¡­

    Xiang Li and Anyang who were in Ji Yuan''s soul sea were startled that this Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing would be able to see them.

    Xiang Li was startled and curiously muttered: I am the Goddess Tear?

    At this moment, Ji Yuan and either Fairy Anyang had the mood to listen to what Xiang Li had just said and should be rmed; it was because Xiang Li was not supposed to remember anything about the Goddess Tear.

 Chapter 657 The Gambit (4)

    Chapter 657 The Gambit (4)

    While Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress awaited Old Reverend Beiyuan to return, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had returned to her meditation.

    As for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, even though their golden eyes were not looking at the canvas imagery above, their divine senses were already looking at the top of the dome and they were trying to imagine the profound thoughts that went into the canvas imageries.

    Because they are immortals, they could feel the immerse cultivation intricates that were in the canvas imageries. For example, if one of the Immortal Gods were to raise his fingers to disy a hand gesture, there would be apanying spirit animus that could be seen even though it may not be shown in the canvas imageries and they could learn of the flow of the profound energies.

    And they would learn plenty of cultivation methods just by using their divine senses.

    Even though Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were celestials but they could also sense the weaving of profound energies in the canvas imaginaries above. At the beginning, they did extend their divine senses in secret to the canvas imaginaries but they find it was quite hard to delve their divine senses into either the Great Beyond Goddess or the Boundless Sovereign Demon God.

    As for the Immortal Gods in the canvas imageries, they could still have chance to ponder over their profound cultivations.

    However they got one problem and it was Ji Yuan; they got distracted by a roguish Ji Yuan who were exploring their maiden bodies with his constant looks.

    It was one thing for their minds to be distracted by Ji Yuan and it was another thing when even their physical bodies were also craving for Ji Yuan''s attention as well.

    Ji Yuan was a cultivator and a peaked great saint too, so therefore he could also use his divine sense to know that there were profound cultivations in these canvas imageries.

    He thought: Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing really did not lie to me. The further we go in these rooms, the more profound the cultivations were. But I can swear that I was being attacked by a profound sword energies in the first room even though there were no cultivation formations around¡­

    But anyway, Ji Yuan was uninterested to expend his profound strength into the canvas imageries as it would be exhausting to his mental and profound energies. He would rather conserve his profound strength for a fight.

    Also while everyone was waiting for Old Reverend Beiyuan to return, this was a golden opportunity for Ji Yuan to admire the beautiful views of his maidens.

    The Lovely Empress had turned around to ask Ji Yuan, "You are not cultivating?"

    Ji Yuanughed as his golden eyes greedily looked down at the Lovely Empress'' naked neckline, "This is a little too hard for me¡­"

    "You are a cultivator that is not a cultivator," Shui Xisi frowned with displeasure but secretly she was pleased that Ji Yuan had his attention on her and he was not cultivating.

    Ji Yuan began to protest weakly, "I am a sword cultivator¡­"

    "You''re a sword cultivator that is too stupid to cultivate," Laughed and teased the Lovely Empress next to the two of them.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he stared at the Lovely Empress and he was looking down to her bosoms again, "I am a peaked great saint that doesn''t need to cultivate¡­"

    "Ya, ya!" Interrupted Shui Xisi with a soft chuckle. "You''re just a cultivator that is too poor to find high grade spirit stones and profound treasures to cultivate. Don''tin to us when you have failed your ascension to the Immortal Divine Realm!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and muttered weakly, "If I failed to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm, would I still be able toin to any of you?"

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress began to chuckle softly at Ji Yuan''s reply.

    Ji Yuan weakly continued to say, "But I''ve two emperor-step divine swords now. Surely, I can ascend to the Immortal Realm¡­"

    "Not quite!" The Lovely Empress chuckled in, "Divine weapons may be able to protect you, yes. But it is really not as easy as you think it is. Why do you think that I''ve spent thousands of years to prepare for my ascension?"

    Ji Yuan continued to look at the Lovely Empress'' bosoms as he muttered slowly, "Luckily you didn''t or else I won''t be able to see you anymore¡­"

    When he had said that, the Lovely Empress began to flush in her countenances and she began to look away; she along with her two other prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue had opted to stay in the Celestial Realm. They had a reason that was more important than being an immortal and it was Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi was envious of the Lovely Empress when she noticed that Ji Yuan was paying too much attention to her and he was talking to her. So she tried to distract him by asking curiously, "I wonder what the story behind this Goddess Star Pce and why it is built."

    Her question worked and Ji Yuan was looking at her again.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Naturally it is to celebrate the victory of the Great Beyond Goddess over this big demonic god.

    As heughed, he could not resist the thought of trying to grope Shui Xisi but he tried his best to resist the urge in the open, especially with so many others around.

    However his thoughts were heard by Xiang Li and Anyang who were giggling in his soul sea in secret.

    Fairy Anyang asked Xiang Li in secret by whispering to her: Do you think our lord will be able to make this Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing to fall in love with him?

    Xiang Li sadly shook her head: I really hope so but this is impossible.

    Fairy Anyang asked curiously: Why so? Aren''t you invincible in this sort of things? You''re not helping our lord to increase his harem?

    Xiang Li corrected her with a chuckle: That is my harem! Not Big Brother!

    But she shook her head by saying: This Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing already has someone that she likes. So it is impossible her love to join my harem.

    Fairy Anyang asked curiously: I wonder who may he be?

    Xiang Li giggled for some time before she whispered even softer: Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Fairy Anyang was stunned with looks of disbelief: I don''t believe it. This Old Reverend Beiyuan actually has someone that likes him?!

    Xiang Liughed as she whispered: Not only that. Actually he likes Grand Holy Saintess Yue Yuexing too.

    Fairy Anyang was even more stunned: ¡­

    Xiang Li began tough jovially to herself when she saw Fairy Xiahou Anyang''s expression.

    In the meantime Ji Yuan was saying to Shui Xisi on the outside, "Well, the only thing that we ought to know is that the Great Beyond Goddess has won and the big demon god is dead now. Haha."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly opened her golden eyes and said coldly, "Hmph! Do you really think that the Boundless Sovereign Demon God is so easily to be killed? He is a True Devil God! Do you know that my great mistress is seeking the remnant of his soul so as to destroy himpletely. Only then would the Six Divine Realms be safe from destruction and chaos!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly when he had heard her, "Don''t be so upset. I am just chatting here. You should vent your rage against that True Devil God and not me at me. You sound like I am that True Devil God. Unfortunately, I am far more handsome that him. He must be freaking ugly to keep his mask on him with a ck helmet. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had also broken out in chorus ofughter.

    Shui Xisi winked at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan is far too weak to be the True Devil God. That True Devil God only wants to destroy the Six Divine Realms while this Ji Yuan here is only interested to get back his beard."

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had heard Shui Xisi, "Thanks for reminding me about my beard¡­"

    "You can do without a beard. You look far better without any beard." The Lovely Empress giggled softly.

    Although she had not heard Ji Yuan mentioned how he had lost his beard previously but from the other ''sister consorts'', she had heard of his beard story before and she had purposely said that to provoke him.

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was growling softly with displeasure and he was looking at the bosoms of the Lovely Empress that were jumping up and down.

    At this moment, he felt like ripping her revealing low neckline robe apart to vent all his frustrations on her. This should teach her a good lesson for reminding him of his beard.

    But this dark thoughts of his was contained only on his mind and he was hot with lust from watching both the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi.

    He began to wonder if this was the effect of his new masculine profound pill that had yet to fade away.

    -----------------------

 Chapter 658 The Gambit (5)

    ?

    After Ji Yuan got a small rebuke from the Holy Grand Saintess Qi Yuexing, he spent the remaining of the hours in ''quiet'' meditation but he was facing directly in front of Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress who were meditating likewise.

    While Ji Yuan was busy examining every inch of their bodies with his intense golden eyes while pretending to be meditating, these two maidens were also likewise secretly examining Ji Yuan''s beautiful face and his yful looks.

    As for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, they were meditating away from Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress preferring to focus their attentions on the canvas imagery instead and the curious dark eyes that had appeared in the sword of the Boundless Sovereign Demon God, cultivating with their divine senses.

    However Yun Chi had used a divine whisper to say to Bai Qianfeng, "They don''t have to sit so close to each other."

    Bai Qianfeng returned a curled smile as she slightly looked at Yun Chi with her divine whisper, "So my master as well as my sister here would also be jealous? I''ve always thought that the Death God Mingwang is an emotionless deste god."

    Yun Chi returned a slow smile, "In front of the beyond divinity true gods, I dare not call myself any god."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded weakly, "I am actually caught between wanting to leaving this ce and staying in this ce."

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "Same here¡­"

    The two of them were having the exact same thoughts. When cultivators meditate, sometimes they could meditate for years non-stop since they rarely require any food or water as long as they have their profound cultivation.

    And there are so many mysteries here that they wished that they could meditate in deep delve so that they could ponder over the profound mysteries of the beyond divinity.

    Time and hours quickly passed.

    Shui Xisi could not resisting whispering to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, why are you so calm? Aren''t you worried? What if we can''t help them to escape from this ce?"

    This was overheard by the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu since she was meditating quite near to Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled and answered confidently, "Naturally I am not worried at all. Why should I be? Haha. They are the ones that are being trapped and not us. At the end of 7 days, we can escape from this trial. Also, I have my own golden talisman to burn and escape from this ce too¡­"

    "And abandoning my Mistress Yun Chi and your precious Qianfeng? I don''t think so." The Lovely Empress had suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan with a smile. "If you are such a person, you would have used the golden talisman a long time ago."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly; Naturally he would not use the golden talisman since Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng could not use their golden talismans as they were immortals and the normal mysticws of this ce could not be applied to them at all.

    "But other than waiting for the 7 days to be up, you do have a n, right?" Shui Xisi asked curiously. "You always have a n. I''m sure of this because you think differently from us."

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily, "Actually my n is just to wait for the end of 7 days and that is my only n."

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ji Yuan exined when he saw their stunned expressions, "They can''t kill us. The mysticws of this ce prevent the God Immortals to kill the celestials. They have said so themselves."

    "But they can throw you to the divine beasts in this ce and you won''t be able to survive." Shui Xisi weakly said.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately, "They are God Immortals and the disciples of the Great Beyond Goddess. We have kept our side of our bargain and entered this ce with them. So we should be quite safe and they would need to keep me alive until they can reach Room 33. Although my actual cultivation is not as profound as the two of you but I know that the higher the divinity of the cultivators, the more that they cannot lie."

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly as she praised Ji Yuan, "Not bad. You still remember your cultivation basis."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not a simpleton, alright?

    But he kept his thoughts to himself as he could hear Xiang Li and Anyang giggling as well in his soul sea.

    He said quickly to them: The two of you are so useless. If you know any ns, hurry up and tell me. Can''t you see that they are mocking me? I mean mocking ''US''!" <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiang Li replied with a chuckle: So what is the n then?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He replied: I asked you for the n and you are asking me?!

    He gave up on talking to Xiang Li and returned his thoughts to look at the Lovely Empress with a weak chuckle, "Actually, I am a peak great saint and a sword saint¡­"

    "I''ve noticed that when you are at a loss of words, you''d always say this." Chuckled the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi was also giggling.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Howe she knows me so well now when we have only just met not long ago?! It must be the gossips that they are feeding her¡­

    Just as he was about to protest, there was a loudughter at the entrance of the golden hallway and Ji Yuan saw that it was Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    "Hohohohohoho! I have returned!" Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially. "And it has only been 6 hours!"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing looked a little surprise as she opened her golden eyes, "You are back so fast?"

    Then she calmed down to say unhappily, "Why are you forcing yourself like this? You should have taken more time to return."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed it off, "That is because I am strong and also a genius. Hohohohoh!"

    Then he shed to the middle and with a proud look, he turned to Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing to say, "The portal that I''ve picked is the correct one. I am right! Hohohohoho¡­"

    Then he paused briefly to say with pride, "I am right and you are wrong."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan then turned to Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress to say proudly. "Why are the whole lot of you still meditating? Follow me quickly!"

    Ji Yuanughed with a shrug of his shoulder, "Why are you in such a hurry? When we get to the next room, we still have to wait anyway. Hahaha."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan gently rebuked Ji Yuan, "Young celestial. You are wrong instead. I have also found the way to the next 3 rooms as well. Hohohoho."

    Ji Yuan and the rest of the group including Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing were all surprised.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Do you really think that I will be so stupid as to just randomly picked a portal so that I would fail and then get back to you?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said incoherently to himself, "That is what I''ve thought¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had turned to say excitedly say to Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, you are in bad luck. Even a genius like me can''t get the correct portal in Room 24 to Room 25. Junior sister, what you still meditating for? It is your turn now to pick the portal."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing slowly smiled, "So if I can pick the correct portal, then I am a genius above a genius?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan frowned, "Not exactly. It is my presence that makes you smarter."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

 Chapter 659 The Boundless Sovereign Demon God

    ?

    Room 24 had 26 portals, 6 on the left and 8 in the middle and 12 on the right.

    The canvas imagery showed the Boundless Sovereign Demon God standing on a mountain peak and a veiled Great Beyond Goddess was fluttering in the air above and powerful golden profound seals were ringing around her, disying a multiple of runic profound circles all around her.

    They were facing each other in a stand off and were looking at each other intently.

    Because this was a canvas imagery and on top of a top, they were looking intently at each other and were not looking at any of the portals. Even the demonic sword of the Boundless Sovereign Demon God was pointing at the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing looked perplexed when she saw the canvas imagery while Old Reverend Beiyuan wasughing at her and saying, "Hohoho. Find the right portal, my genius junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    But she slowly answered coldly, "I need some time to think¡­"

    Yun Chi was in awe of the canvas imagery and she said to Bai Qianfeng, "Did you see that? The Great Beyond Goddess is already capable of using 12 profound circles as profound seals back in those days. Just how strong is she? Is she the strongest God Immortal from Beyond?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded slowly, "Even the strongest immortal is only capable of using only 2 immortal profound seals. But most of us can only use one. She is capable of using 12 and I can only recognize two of the profound seals. But these are greater immortal profound seals and beyond my understandings¡­"

    Yun Chi nodded slowly, "She is definitely a top power cultivator. You know that the Great Demon God''s secret weapon is that he is capable of using 3 immortal profound seals and that is why he is far stronger than any of the immortals. Even though I am ranked in the same peak as him but I am really unsure if I can best him on my own. I don''t want to risk that."

    Each of the 3 Great Deste Gods of the Deste Divine Realm had their own powerful strength but none of them were willing to go all out on their trump cards.

    Ji Yuan interrupted them, "If so, it is no wonder that this ugly grand daddy of demons will be killed by the Great Beyond Goddess. He doesn''t even have anything except for his demonic sword."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan growled behind Ji Yuan, "Young celestial. What do you know of the strength of the True Devil God? Did you know that during the final battle, he killed all the other Immortal Gods?"

    Ji Yuan turned to look at him with a perplexed look, "Then what are you? Aren''t you an Immortal God too?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "My mistress told me that the 7 of us are all recreated from the remnants of the Immortal Gods'' souls that she could still find. She is the only True Immortal God that is from the beginning of time."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes; he didn''t know about this.

    Even Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were listening with interest; it was because they actually know very little about the Beyond Divine Realm. Therefore, whatever little information that they could gather was important to them.

    Shui Xisi asked curiously, "Is this True Devil God really so strong with his sword?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan stroked his beard before saying, "Strong? He is impossible strong! I''ve forgotten that at your cultivation attainment, you can''t see his sword domains and his devil''s sword intentions. He can rip you apart just with his gaze alone!"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders andughed, "He is still an ugly fellow that hides behind his mask. Moreover, he is already dead."

    Then he suddenly asked out of the blue, "Actually I am more interested to know what the Great Beyond Goddess looks like behind her veil. I''ve only caught a glimpse of her but I can tell that she is really beautiful."

    This was the truth; Dream Mist was very careful not topletely allow anyone to see her full face and he could only see glimpses of her beautiful features.

    All of a sudden Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had a really big reaction as they gasped together, "You have seen our great mistress?!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course. Didn''t I tell you before that I am a friend of your great mistress?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan flew into a rage, "I know that you are a friend of my great mistress and also have the Goddess Tear but you are not allowed to look at her face!"

    Ji Yuan frowned with an ugly look, "Why not?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan stammered with rage, "That is because it is forbidden! Forbidden! Don''t you understand that this is forbidden?! Once I had tried to peep at her and I had to nurse my cultivation back from a whole minor positioning after she had nearly killed me!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Surely your great mistress isn''t that petty right? She looks alright to me. I have even kissed her on her lips, Hahaha¡­"

    Grand Saintess Qi Yuexing took a step backward and she stammered, "You did what¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was seething with rage and he was shouting angrily, "You have kissed my great mistress?!!!"

    When he had shouted, his profound echo began to ripple throughout the golden hallway causing Ji Yuan and his group to take several steps backward.

    "This is impossible! IMPOSSIBLE!!!" Old Reverend Beiyuan was seething with rage. "If you really do, then you should be dead by now!"

    Ji Yuan coughed out weakly and he could feel that his profound energies within his body had been disrupted by Old Reverend Beiyuan. If Old Reverend Beiyuan continued to shout like this then it would only be a matter of time before he and his group would be coughing out blood. But he would be the first since his cultivation foundation was the weakest among Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

    So he quickly said, "Hold it there! I was only kidding. I''ve only kissed your great mistress in my dreams. This is just my male fantasies. Surely you have the same dream as well, right?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan seemed to have calmed down almost immediately but he was stammering, "Of course not! I have¡­ the fullest respect for my¡­ great mistress!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and said to Xiang Li and Anyang in his soul sea: He is lying¡­

    Shui Xisi was also rolling her golden eyes and thought: He is definitely lying¡­

    The Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi were both thinking: He is lying for sure¡­

    Yun Chi weakly thought: All men are beasts in their hearts in front of a beautiful maiden¡­

    Grand Saintess Qi Yuexing was looking annoyed and she was thinking: How dare you have such thoughts on our great mistress¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was not stupid. In fact, he could see that everyone including Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was suddenly quiet but they were all staring at him and they seemed to be thinking about something.

    And he could also see the annoyed look that was on Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    So he quickly tried to distract everyone by saying out loud, "Well, let me tell you about the Great Beyond Realm where I am from. The reason why it is called the Great Beyond is because it is the furthest ce in the universe and you can''t reach it unless you have reached true divinity. It is also the most untainted ce in the entire universe and it is where my great mistress dwells¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. I''ve finally reached this part of the main story arc. This is something that I have wanted to write the longest time. This main story arc actually consists of multiple important arcs that are quite difficult to write and pieced together. (You shall seeter why). The next important part will be in the next chapter. After I had broke my arc and got covid a few months ago, I kinda didn''t put to pieces this part yet and got writer block. But now, my head is clear after a period of rest.

    2. The entire story of The Romantic Cultivator consists of many plot writing so it is harder to write than most cultivation stories and is of much faster pacing. So there is many nning ahead instead of just writing. Although the story may be slow but I need to ensure that it is of quality writing.

    3. Some of you may have already felt that many of the chapters in The Romantic Cultivator only cost 1 pass but it seems to be longer than most 1 pass chapter. That is because I have purposely stopped at around 1.3k words per chapter. 1.5k words chapter cost 2 pass. 2k words cost 3 pass.

    Usually if there are 2 chapters update, the total words count is ard 2.6k, or 4 pass in total. This is to keep the chapters easy to ess for most readers rather than write for the sake of writing.

    And 2 pass chapters are actually closer to most 3 pass chapters.

 Chapter 660 Room 24

    ?

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was pondering deeply as she stared at the canvas imagery on the dome of Room 24 for the hint to the next portal.

    And she had been pondering for the past 3 hours, although she did not have any peace of mind from Old Reverend Beiyuan who was constantly teasing her with his signatureughter.

    As for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, they were eagerly studying the immortal profound seals that were in this ce and they were totally immersed in their cultivations.

    However for Ji Yuan, he wasughing and chatting with Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress; the three of them was uninterested to try their luck with the mysteries of the profound cultivation in this ce and were more interested to talk nonstop with one another.

    Ji Yuan n was simple enough and he intended to waste as much time as possible to get out of this trial and to im for his reward. After all, this was a high level trial and surviving it was his greatest reward.

    Shui Xisi suddenly frowned when Ji Yuan appeared to be a little too boastful in his chats, "You know. You are not that strong a cultivator. You should try to cultivate a little in this ce. Maybe you would get an insight or two that may be useful to you in the future."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned with an answer, "And get heart demons from it? Never!"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes, "Didn''t you just boast that you are the strongest cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and maybe even in the entire Celestial Realm? You would get heart demons?"

    "He is just boasting. He sucks in his cultivation." The Lovely Empress hummed but her lovely golden eyes were filled with delight at the chance of putting down on Ji Yuan. "My mistress Yun Chi is far more stronger than him. Also there are the Deste Dragon God and the Great Demon God as well. Maybe he can''t even defeat the Evil Cultivation Master too. If you are so strong then why did you almost die inside the Bliss City Arena?"

    p¦Ánd¦Á---no¦Í?1,§ão§® Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He grumbled softly, "I am only pretending to be weak in there, you know."

    Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan further pointed out, "If there is a cultivation story, then it would be me. The MC would have the most beautiful beard in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity and even in the Celestial Realm. Haha¡­"

    "No one will like to read about an ugly bearded cultivator," Shui Xisi interrupted with a soft chuckle. "Or any bearded cultivators."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You can eat the wrong food but you can''t say the wrong words! You are not just insulting me and my beard but all the other manly cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity as well."

    Shui Xisiughed jovially, "And where is your beard now? Fancy a cultivator without a beard trying to write a cultivation story about a cultivator with a beard. What a joke!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi continued, not leaving Ji Yuan the chance to protest. "Also, you are nothing without your divine swords. Are you even able to beat me without your divine swords or even the Lovely Empress here?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "You have no idea how formidable my sword fingers are¡­"

    As he said that, he was looking at the tempting body of Shui Xisi and also the enticing figure of the Lovely Empress.

    But he quickly added, "However, I am known as the Gentleman of the Sword. There is no way that I would fight a maiden that is beneath my level. Haha. Don''t forget that I am a peak great saint."

    Shui Xisiughed as she swayed her body withughter, "Don''t make meugh aloud, alright? You are talking with two peaked great saintesses here. We can defeat you 1 to 1 anytime and twisted your sword fingers with our superior profound power. Your puny profound power is nothing without your divine swords."

    "That is right!" The Lovely Empress giggled. "I can nail him down as soon as he dares to raise his little fingers."

    Although she had said it was his little fingers but she was looking down below Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan suddenly had the cringes and heughed if off by saying, "My spirit animus is far stronger than you think¡­"

    "We can just y along with you until you have exhausted your spirit animus," the Lovely Empress blinked with her golden eyes. "I know all your weakness."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly rebuked, "No one has ever killed me yet or even humiliated me yet. Hahaha. Try harder the next time. I''m not going to y a fight of words with the two of you. This is not my strength. You maidens are just good with ying with your words and I''m not falling for this. I am a Gentleman of the Sword, the Great Saint Ji Yuan and Sword Immortal Ji Yuan. Some say, even a Sword Deity. Hahaha. It is just that I don''t wish to use my sword domains on the two of you lest you start to beg me for a little mercy. You know, I can be really soft hearted at times¡­"

    "Oh really? You have never been humiliated before?" Shui Xisi interrupted with a loud chuckle as she raised her alluring voice. "Hehehe. Have you forgotten a few hundred years ago how you got hung up on a tree and your ass kicked?"

    Ji Yuan was jolted as he stared at Shui Xisi with disbelief and he was suddenly shouting, "That is YOU!? You!!!"

    At that time, he was drunk and was walking in the dark woods on his own and he was suddenly attacked by a masked person. He did not know if it was a man or a maiden but his attacker had beaten him up rather badly and kept pulling his beautiful beard.

    Eventually he got hung up by the tree and even got his beautiful beard insulted.

    To this day, this was a most humiliating thing that had happened to him because even though he may be drunk but there was no one that could surprise him just like this.

    He had always thought that it was Little Princess or someone with a feud with him.

    Shui Xisiughed nonstop, "So you have finally remembered? You have dared to call me an old freaking woman that day and this ''old woman'' would be smitten by you?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned; he had suddenly remembered his boasts.

    He began to growl and raised his fists angrily, "Sisi! Today, you shall pay for this insult! I am going to KILL YOU!"

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were suddenly startled by Ji Yuan''s loudmotions and Yun Chi began to frown softly, "What is wrong with Ji Yuan? Just a moment ago, he was happily chatting with them. Now he is so angry¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess also had a bewilder look; she was focusing too much on unraveling the profound cultivation mysteries that she did not know what was going on.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had coldly turned to look in the direction of Ji Yuan and was humming coldly, "Celestials, how dare you interrupt my divine thoughts. Do you want to live or not? I can assure that I have many ways to kill you even if I cannot directly kill a celestial."

    Ji Yuan turned to the direction of the Grand Holy Saintess and weakly said, "Great Immortal God, I am sorry to interrupt your peace. I was just a little bored that you have not yet picked a portal."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed with sarcasm, "If you are that smart, why don''t you pick the portal then?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he answered, "You can pick the middle portal and the 4th portal from the right."

    There were 26 portals, 6 on the left and 8 in the middle and 12 on the right.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan coldly said, "It is just random a guess. Don''t try to fool us. We are not amused by your antics."

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "There are 6 portals to the left and 8 in the middle. On the right side are 12 portals. It is in multiple of 2. So it should be the middle portal which is 2nd in ce. As for why it is the 4th portal counting from the right and not the left, it is because the Great Beyond Goddess have 12 profound circles around him. It is the same as the 12 portals on the right."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had a sudden realization now but he said, "But it can also be the portal on the right since there are 12 profound seals. As there are only the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess here, it may be the second portal. As for whether we start counting from the left or right¡­"

    "I think he is right." Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly said aloud. "I am going to pick the portal in the middle."

    When she had said that, she had already shed to the portal.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan panicky began to shout, "Junior sister, wait! You can''t trust him¡­"

    But it was already toote and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had already shed into the 2nd portal in the middle.

 Chapter 661 The Schemes Of The Great Demon God

    ?

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea that is located in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The Great Demon God was caressing the revealing body of the Goddess Mel in his embrace and they were in the private chamber of the Great Demon God.

    The Goddess Mel was sweaty from her own sweet fragrances after a long and fulfilling coption with the hungry Great Demon God who did not show her the least mercy.

    Their coption was very rough and could break any normal celestial. But fortunately, the Goddess Mel is a deste immortal but even then, their harsh coption was even too much for her; this was any normal coption but an extreme dual cultivation that drained the profound strength from her to replenish and repair the soul sea of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God had been injured by an unknown force when he had suffered a severe bacsh to his cultivation core when the emperor-step divine sword that he had been nurturing for thousands of years had been suddenly severed from his soul sea.

    That was why the Great Demon God had been dual cultivating with the Goddess Mel in secret to hasten his recovery.

    The Goddess Mel saw that the Great Demon God was in a better mood today so she took the opportunity to say with a seducing look, "That Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily is too arrogant. She has not only killed Number 4 in a gruesome manner but she has also injured Number 2. Are we going to let this matter rest just like this? We ought to give her a punishment in front of the others¡­"

    "You are merely in charge of the Evil Cultivation Pce and not in charge of my demonic race," The Great Demon God had interrupted her coldly all of a sudden.

    The Goddess Mel was quiet and withdrawn after this cold rebuke; she knew that she was just a deste immortal from the Immortal Divine Realm and not from the same Deste Divine Realm as the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God continued to say coldly, "Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao can do whatever she likes. This is none of your business and you shall not interfere¡­"

    Then with a cold smirk, he added. "If you dare to offend her then you are only courting your own death. When that happens, not even I, would be able to protect you from your own death."

    The Goddess Mel: ¡­

    The Goddess Mel: ¡­

    The Goddess Mel: ¡­

    The Goddess Mel muttered weakly, "I am merely trying to warn my Great God about her. Of course, whether if she would be punished by my Great God is up to your whims. I won''t interfere at all¡­"

    Then she quickly asked, "Great God, I am just a little curious. Are we going to let off the cultivators that are at the Eons Mountains just like this for killing the Deste Dragon God? They may think that we are weaklings. Why don''t we sent Number 1 and the rest of the superior Numbers to the Eons Firmament Mountains to capture Saintess Fang Zhenfei?"

    This was her way of sending Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to her certain doom.

    It was because she knew that the Great Demon God would not be able to send any deste beasts or more cultivators to support Number 1 at this moment because the Great Demon God had not expected to be suddenly injured; the Great Demon God had to use his great profound power to power the powerful profound seal that sealed the Immortal Realm from the Celestial Realm so as to prevent the Pangu Immortals from descending into the Celestial Realm.

    She quickly added with an innocent look, "I am sure that Saintess Fang Zhenfei and the rest of the celestials that are on her side have expended their profound strength. This is actually a golden opportunity for us to capture Saintess Fang Zhenfei."

    Then she pointed at the lewd naked sculpture of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and smiled, "I am sure that my Great God wants to copte with the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice as soon as possible."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She had purposely said that to arouse the interest of the Great Demon God. It was also to pretend to be putting the best interest of the Great Demon God in her heart.

    The Great Demon God frowned as he stroked his long white beard as he pondered briefly before he said, "No, this won''t do until the Death God Mingwang has returned."

    The Goddess Mel asked curiously, "We have been trying to obtain the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for the past thousands of years. I really don''t see how the Death God Mingwang is going to seed this time round."

    The Great Demon God slowly curled a smile, "It is actually not important to obtain the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Goddess Mel was stunned; she had thought that this was original their intentions?

    The Great Demon God grabbed the Goddess Mel to him before banging her hard, causing her to moan lewdly as he smiled coldly. "As long as I can maintain the profound seal to keep the Pangu Immortals out, there is no way for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to return to the Immortal Realm¡­"

    p¦Ánd¦Á---no¦Í?1,§ão§® "And that is why we have chosen to strike when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has descended upon the Celestial Realm¡­" The Goddess Mel began to gasp with a sudden realization.

    The Great Demon God smiled, "Now you''ve finally got it. With my great profound power, I would be able to seize control of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when the trials have finally ended. Then this Celestial Realm shall be the new Deste Celestial Realm and I shall be the master of this ce."

    The Goddess Mel smiled with pride, "My Great God is ever the tactician."

    But she quickly asked out of curiosity, "I have heard that Number 1 is the strongest demonic immortal under my Great God and she is just below the Deste Dragon God in strength. Surely, we can just send a crack troop to find an opportunity to seize the Saintess Fang Zhenfei? Sending just a small crack troop won''t diminish the deste force from this ce and affect the profound seal to the Immortal Realm, am I right?"

    The Great Demon God slowly said, "I don''t wish to use Number 1 for the time being. Naturally if she goes, there is a good chance that she may seed But then, there is also a chance that the Saintess Fang Zhenfei may escape and this will be troublesome for me. Then I may end up losing both Number 1 and Saintess Fang Zhenfei."

    The Goddess Mel looked confused, "My great god means that Number 1 would end up being killed instead?"

    The Great Demon God answered, "It is because I can only use Number 1 only onest time and then she is free to go. Therefore, I will only use her as thest resort."

    The Goddess Mel was startled, "Onest time? Free to go? She dares to leave my great god?!"

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly, "You seem to be looking down on Number 1. She may not be a god of the Deste Divine Realm but her profound strength is actually on par with any of the three deste gods."

    The Goddess Mel could not believe what she was hearing and she was stammering with shock, "She is on par with my great god¡­"

    She really could not believe her ears¡­

    No wonder the Great Demon God had been lenient to her for killing Number 4 and injuring Number 2.

    Then she suddenly hatched a n: What if she could trick Number 1 to the Eons Firmament Mountains to capture the Saintess Fang Zhenfei instead. Then won''t the Great Demon God be pleased with her and would even grant her even more immortal power?

 Chapter 662 The Five Heavens Peak

    ?

    Five Heavens Peak, in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had suddenly departed from the Great Deste Divine Pce for a break.

    As the Great Deste Divine Pce was unlikely to be attacked by the celestials even if they had known of the location, she was not too concerned about it. Moreover, if there were any dangers, the Great Demon God would summon her anyway.

    She brushed her long flowing hair that was bundled in a curl next to her pointed ears to hide the fact that she was from the demonic race and not the same as the celestials.

    At the same time, she had also hidden her red demonic eyes which was a distinct feature in her demonic race, contrast to the golden eyes of the golden celestials in this Celestial Fraternity.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce had specifically invented this profound art of hiding the true colors of their eyes for their nefarious purposes of infiltrating the Celestial Realm.

    This profound art was extremely difficult to create and it took the demonic race centuries of their time in the Celestial Realm to finallyplete it.

    Although this is one of the precious cultivation arts of the Evil Cultivation Pce it is also quite a useless profound art as well unless they wanted to disguise themselves as a lower cultivation realm cultivator; the Evil Cultivation Pce had plenty of spies that were below the fifth cultivation realm to do their biddings and there were also many evil celestials among their ranks.

    Also, this profound art is also extremely difficult to master its profound intricates at the same time and only a bored cultivator would spend the effort to try to learn it. Unless of course, that cultivator happened to have his own nefarious purposes.

    But for Number 1, this is a most useful profound art that would allow her to mingle among the celestials in the Celestial Realm.

    Today she had randomly picked a location in the Deste Celestial Realm to wander and she had arrived in this ce because the deste aura in this ce was rich and it pleased her. Naturally ces with rich deste aura would have poor spiritual aura.

    Therefore, there were few golden celestials in this ce.

    Even if there were, most of the poorer golden celestials would take their chances in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, hoping to find a profound treasure or two to change their cultivation fortunes.

    Imagine her surprise when she stumbled upon a bearded golden celestial walking along the mountain path and from the looks of it, he had a battle not too long ago and was looking rugged.

    The bearded cultivator was also quite startled to see such an astonishing beautiful maiden in this deste ce and quickly prompted a question, "Maiden, are you lost around here? I have never seen you before."

    Ding Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes before she nodded slowly and she was thinking to herself: Consider his bad luck today in disturbing my peace. He won''t even know how he dies hehe¡­

    The bearded cultivator smiled amicably, "I am Celestial Ji Hao. What is your name?"

    He was indeed Ji Hao, Ji Yuan and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo''s son; he had been training in the wilderness to hone his fighting skills as well as to increase his cultivation potential so as not to be a disgrace anymore to both his parents.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled but this was not a look of relief and she was not lost.

    She was thinking: Why should I tell you my name? The minute my name is revealed to you is also when it is time for you to die.

    Ji Hao quickly said when he saw that this maiden was quiet, "You can trust me. I am an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect and it is the strongest influence in the Five Heavens Peak. Which celestial ns do you belong to? Or do you even have one?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao disyed a smile, "The Emperor Hall Sect?"

    She was actually thinking: What is this puny celestial sect that even has a name? Let me wipe it off the face of the Deste Celestial Fraternity then.

    Ji Hao had misunderstood her that she may have heard of his celestial sect so heughed jovially, "That is right. The Emperor Hall Sect is where Sword Saint Ji Yuan is the sect leader and I''m his son. Haha."

    Ding Xiaoxiao disyed a most beautiful smile now; just a few days ago, she was thinking how bored that there was no one that could match her with a sword. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She was now thinking of beheading this Sword Saint Ji Yuan to ease her boredom and blood thirst.

    So she said with a soft giggle, "This Sword Saint Ji Yuan, where is he now? In the Emperor Hall Sect?"

    Ji Hao shook his head and solemnly said, "Hard luck. My father is the greatest sword saint and hero in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity. Even if he is not in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, it is hard to even catch him in the Emperor Hall Sect."

    Ding Xiaoxiao frowned softly, "Greatest Sword Saint and hero in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    She had not heard of this Ji Yuan previously; it was because Ding Xiaoxiao had been in a deep cultivation to increase her cultivation strength to its previous peak and had only recently been called upon by the Great Demon God.

    Also, she could not recklessly expend her profound power lest it would attract the attention of the Divine Cmity as the Celestial Realm is hostile to the immortals. But now, it is different; the Divine Cmity had also been suppressed by the profound power of the Great Demon God and they would no longer need to hide their profound powers anymore.

    Ji Haoughed jovially and looked proud of his father, "My father Ji Yuan is definitely the best swordsman in the entire Deste Celestial Realm and he has no equal."

    He was thinking that this young maiden may be too young and that was why she did not know who his father was.

    ¦Ñ¦Á§ád¦Á---n?¦Ía| §ãom Ding Xiaoxiao suddenly asked curiously, "Then, are you a sword saint?"

    Ji Haoughed, "s, unfortunately I am not¡­"

    "Then you can die now." Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly swung her fingers and had struck him down onto the ground!

    Ji Hao was suddenly moaning in great pain as he dropped onto the ground and he was moaning with great agony but could not stand up again.

    He really could not believe what had just happened; did he just got attacked by a non-golden celestial?!

    There was a twitch on Ding Xiaoxiao''s facial countenance; it was because her profound attack would shatter the golden bones of any golden celestials and they would be killed by her in an instant. But this golden celestial was only moaning in great pain and at the moment of her strike, she could feel an inertia force that had repelled her attack.

    Even though that inertia force was subtle, she would sense it and this was what had prevented her profound attack from shattering his golden body.

    She stared at this Ji Hao who was still struggling with pain to expel her profound force in his body and thought: He has demonic bones in his body? If not, why can''t I shatter his body?

    Naturally she would still shatter the golden body of this Ji Hao with a more powerful attack but she did not want to make another attack.

    This was not her way.

    So she said coolly as she walked away, "Consider yourself, golden celestial."

    Then she started to look up to the gigantic image aura of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and thought: The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be over in less than a month time and this Ji Yuan would be returning to the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Or she could seek him out to duel with him for some amusements.

    Or maybe she could use this opportunity to challenge the Death God Mingwang inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?

    All of a sudden she seemed to be spirited again as though she had just found a purpose.

 Chapter 663 The Evil Cultivation Master (R18)

    ?

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea that is located in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    A pale looking Number 2 Murong Yue was now standing in the dark chamber of the Evil Cultivation Master.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was smiling coldly, "I didn''t expect for you to talk to me. I am only a 8th positioning immortal that is being suppressed to the peaked great saint cultivation. But you are a 9th positioning immortal that is suppressed to the 8th positioning cultivation. Among my deste immortal race, you are a Great Goddess and even I must bow before you. And you are actually seeking my help?"

    Number 2 Murong Yue slowly said without any emotion, "I want my vendetta against Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao for humiliating me in front of the others and also to avenge Number 4 my friend."

    The Evil Cultivation Master smiled, "And so, you want my precious metamorphosis core? You must know that I don''t have too much to spare now."

    Number 2 Murong Yue slowly asked, "But you have helped Number 4 to imbue a metamorphosis core, am I right?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master smirked coldly, "She has to pay a price naturally."

    Number 2 Murong Yue frowned, "What is your price?"

    The Evil Cultivationughed nonstop before he smiled coldly, "Naturally it is the same as Number 2 and that is your body."

    Number 2 Murong Yue was startled and she turned to look coldly at the Evil Cultivation Master, "How dare you! Number 2 Xu Xianzi would never do agree with your condition!"

    The Evil Cultivation Master looked at Murong Yue with a haughty look, "Then you are wrong. She desires more power and I am the only one that can give this to her. Moreover, I don''t give my precious metamorphosis core just to anyone."

    Then he sighed, "Unfortunately for her, she had challenged Number 1 too soon before the metamorphosis process had been fullypletely or I would say that even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would be begging me for a metamorphosis core to make her stronger than even the true deste gods¡­"

    He turned to look at Number 2 Murong Yue, "But you are an immortal at the upper immortal positioning and you have the potential to be one with the true deste gods one day."

    Number 2 Murong Yue: ¡­

    I will kill you when that day arrives¡­

    Finally, Murong Yue slowly said. "Your metamorphosis for core for my body. This secret is between the two of us and¡­"

    All of a sudden. the Evil Cultivation Master had his fingers on her chin as he caressed slowly, "Naturally. You are a true gem and I want you on my side as well. This secret deal is sealed between the two of us and I swear by the Great Beyond Goddess to give you my very best metamorphosis core and to make you stronger than even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao."

    An immortal promise is absolute.

    It was only then that Murong Yue began to slowly nodded¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Then the Evil Cultivation Master began to grab her bosoms and squeezed her tightly.

    Number 2 Murong Yue looked away as she bit her rosy lips as she felt the Evil Cultivation Master on her bosoms but she was soon gasping softly when suddenly he had slipped under her revealing skirt to touch her underneath.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was not in a hurry as he slowly slipped the robe off Murong Yue to reveal her beautiful naked upper body; he knew that she had loosened her cultivation seal that was on her clothing and that he could freely do whatever he wanted now.

    With a sly smile, he began to admire her upper body of this beautiful demonic great goddess and he had the intention to use her as his melting cauldron for his evil dual cultivation profound art. This was a chance that he could not miss and the second golden opportunity for him.

    Unfortunately for him, Number 4 Xu Xianzi had died too early before he couldplete his evil dual cultivation art but Number 2 Murong Yue is a worthy recement and she is far more superior as a melting cauldron for him.

    The Evil Cultivation Master slowly said as he ripped the robe off Number 2 Murong Yue as he looked down on her lower body, "Join me. Join me along with Sagess Alyssa and we will make our enemies suffer for their insolence."

    Number 2 Murong Yue hummed softly, not daring to look at the Evil Cultivation Master because he was now pushing her to the wall and he was groping her passionately.

    But she gasped out between her hot flushes, "This is your business with the Goddess Mel. I don''t want a part in this¡­ This Goddess Mel is just an inferior¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation Master reminded her, "She is a close aide to the Great Demon God and so is Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. They are riding on top of us. We can overthrow them and be our own masters."

    Number 2 Murong Yue trembled as the Evil Cultivation Master were suddenly groping her bosoms tightly so as to forcefully imposed his will upon her and this was something that she had found it hard to disagree.

    So she gasped out, "Whatever¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation Master began to smile as he kissed her on her lips, "That is a good maiden."

    Then he said, "Why are you so tight? Open your legs so that I can feel what is inside you. Tonight we shall have the most wondrous time and you will have an experience that you won''t forget after dual cultivating with me."

    He could already feel the lewdness between her legs as he said that to Number 2 Murong Yue.

    Murong Yue found herself kissing the Evil Cultivation Master in return and for some unknown reason, she could not resist his advances.

    And she could feel that the Evil Cultivation Master had removed his robe as well and she could feel his hardness between the lewdness of her legs.

    Slowly she began to part her legs and she could feel the fingers of the Evil Cultivation Master that were greedily upon her.

    The Evil Cultivation Master smiled and said, "Tonight, no part of beautiful your body shall be spared and I shall admire you in all your beautiful glory¡­"

 Chapter 664 The Goddess Mel And Ding Xiaoxiao

    ?

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea that is located in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was now back to the Great Deste Divine Pce and there was a piece of information that she had sought to learn and that was the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    She had caught the neck of a golden celestial from the Evil Cultivation Pce and said impolitely, "Now tell me. What is the fastest way to reachplete the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    e¦Áglesnovel`c,om This dark cultivator and also golden cultivator, was actually an old man that was nearly his prime and it made sense to her that he must have visited the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the past.

    The dark cultivator from the Evil Cultivation Pce gasped weakly as he was being seized before stammering, "Great One, it is forbidden to tell you anything about what can ur inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth due to the mysticws that are imposed upon us."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily growled before she pondered and smiled, "I''m not asking you about the trials inside or what could have urred inside. I am asking you about what is the easiest way to pass the trials. Now answer me."

    The poor old cultivator began to struggle under the profound strength of this demonic cultivator; he could not believe that a golden saint like himself could not even move an inch of his profound strength under her assault.

    He also could not believe his bad luck because he had not expected a Great One from the Demonic Numbers to visit the section of the Great Deste Divine Pce where the dark celestials were housed.

    This Great One simply tossed aside all the lower cultivation realm cultivators before setting her sights on him.

    "Now answer me. Or I''ll crack your neck." Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao warned him.

    This old cultivator naturally believed her threats because words had already spread that she had beheaded Number 4 for challenging her and she had even dragged Number 2 across the hallways of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    He quickly gasped breathlessly, "There is no easy way to the top of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but the trials there are divided into various difficulties from B to S. Maybe you can try the B trials if you want to reach to the very top in the fastest possible way¡­ but the rewards won''t be too good¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled coldly and let go of the old cultivator by flunking him aside, "I don''t need any rewards and this information is good enough."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled to herself: So this is the fastest way.

    She had never been to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the past and everyone was forbidden to talk about their experiences inside by a powerful immortal mysticw. Not even an immortal can bend this mysticw as the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is an immortal profound artefact from the Great Beyond.

    The only thing that she knows about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was that the Great Demon God farmed the ce for its vast immortal treasures and riches every 500 years to maintain the growing influences of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    At the same time, the Numbers which had followed the Great Demon God also received the various cultivation resources to allow them to quickly regain their cultivation strength.

    But it was painstaking slow as the Celestial Realm had a 7th cultivation positioning limit. That was why while they were here, they were not allowed to use their cultivation power lest they would be injured by the Divine Cmity.

    But now the Great Demon God has sealed the Divine Cmity along with the passage to the Immortal Divine Realm and that is why all the Numbers are now on the offensive after a long wait of thousands of years.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly as she raised her fist, "This feeling of being suppressed is not a good feeling at all¡­"

    As she turned away and returned to the section of the Great Deste Divine Pce where the Numbers dwelled, the Goddess Mel had suddenly appeared along the hallways and she was smiling.

    The Goddess Mel chuckled, "I wonder who is causing all thesemotions. So it is you."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao knew that this slut was the close aide of the Great Demon God and did not want to answer her. So she simply walked past her without a word.

    However the Goddess Mel turned around with a soft giggled and said, "s, why are you in such a hurry? Do you want to know something interesting?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao continued to ignore her and walked away.

    But the Goddess Mel continued to giggle, "I have heard that there is a strongest sword at the Eons Firmament Mountains. Do you want to know who he is?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had paused in her steps and quietly asked, "Hmph, what is his name?"

    The Goddess Melughed, knowing that she had caught Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily''s attention so she giggled, "His name is Ji Yuan and he is the consort lord of Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi. He is said to be the strongest sword cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and even in the entire Celestial Realm."

    She had purposely neglected to mention the White Sword Monarch that was in the other celestial fraternity because her aim was just to bait Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to the Eons Firmament Mountains.

    "Ji Yuan?!" Ding Xiaoxiao muttered with bewilderment.

    Didn''t that Ji Hao say his father is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?

    The Goddess Melughed, "Yes, the same Ji Yuan that had killed our 8th deste rank metamorphosis deste beast when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had just ascended. And he has an immortal-step sword with him as well. He is also a Sword Saint. You have not heard about his renown?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao began to frown; she really had not heard of this before.

    "Immortal-step sword? Killed an 8th metamorphosis deste beast?" She muttered with a curled smile. Now this was getting interesting and this Ji Yuan may be a worthy opponent. At least she would get some pleasure in killing him and hearing his cries for mercies.

    She turned around to ask, "This Ji Yuan, he is at the Eons Firmament Mountains?"

    The Goddess Mel smiled amicably, "Naturally he is. However he won''t show up so easily because he is the trump card of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei. I guess that you may have to force her a little so that this Ji Yuan would show up."

    She was smiling because if this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily could get close to the Saintess Fang Zhenfei in the first ce, she may as well capture her for the Great Demon God toplete their schemes.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily pondered for a while before she walked away; she had decided to pay the Eons Firmament Mountains a visit first.

    As for the Goddess Mel, she did not need to ask where Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was going; it was because she knew that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would be going to the Eons Firmament Mountains to look for Ji Yuan.

    But no matter the oue, she had already set this useless Ji Yuan to be Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s enemy and had helped the Great Demon God.

 Chapter 665 Number 1 Vs. Shangguan Yan

    ?

    The Eons Firmament Mountains.

    Night.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had returned to the Eons Firmament Mountains once again.

    This was actually the second time that she had been here. The first time was not too long ago and that was to punish Number 2 Murong Yue for acting on her own orders.

    The irony was that she was now also acting on her own orders even though the Great Demon God had sternly said that all operations to the Eons Firmament Mountains should cease for now and until further notice.

    She flew quietly andnded on top of a mountain ledge; as an immortal, she would muster her profound animus and flew on her own.

    She remembered that she had once lost a game of chance against 3 maidens in this ce. As for their names, she did not know nor care to know. After all, they were just inferiors and just got lucky.

    But there would not be a next time.

    These 3 unknown maidens were actually Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and Shui Qingqing.

    She did not go to the base of the Eons Firmament Mountains directly as she could sense that there were many celestials in that ce and she did not want to fight against so many celestials at the same time.

    Moreover, she had just one objective and that was to find this Ji Yuan and to check how good he was. Was he really in this ce or in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?

    e¦Áglesnovel`c,om Actually, she was aware of the Goddess Mel little scheme and that was to force her to handle Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    It was not impossible for her to handle Saintess Fang Zhenfei on her own but there was a little problem that she did not want to risk; it was because her cultivation realm was still being suppressed to the peak of the eighth immortal positioning.

    And Saintess Fang Zhenfei was someone that could defeat the Deste Dragon God at his peak. And this caused her to be curious.

    How did she manage to do it when she is only a great saintess at the 7th cultivation realm?

    However, she has no interest to fight with a power cultivator and she is only interested to duel with a sword cultivation like this Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    When she is fighting with this Ji Yuan, naturally she would be suppressing her own cultivation realm to match his level or else this would not be a fair sword fight.

    She is already ying with the thought of suppressing this Ji Yuan with her sword intentions and humiliated him for being a good-for-nothing sword saint.

    It is because no one understands the art of the sword better than her and she only seeks out her opponent out of boredom and she wants to humiliate all the best swords in the Six Divine Realms.

    As she walked along this familiar trek that she had also visited some time ago, she spotted a memorial marker.

    Curiously she took a look at the words on the memorial marker and it read: Here lies Sky Forth, the precious sword of my Master Ji Yuan. From your unfilial disciple and consort Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao frowned softly when she saw the name of Ji Yuan being engraved onto the stone memorial marker.

    Precious sword?!

    Is it a divine sword?

    All of a sudden, she had suddenly remembered the precious sword that Number 2 Murong Yue had broke and one of the maidens had suddenly be quite upset over it.

    And this same maiden had also won the game of chance against her.

    She pondered to think to remember that maiden name, "Did she say that her name is Ye Chengxi that day? It is just an inferior sword. Why does she have to put so much attachment into it? It isn''t even a divine sword and it can''t regenerate itself once it is broken anyway."

    She began to hum coldly at the foolishness and naiveties of these celestials who ced such emotion attachments to the worldly objects around them.

    All of a sudden she was interrupted by a movement behind her and she saw a beautiful maiden that was approaching in her direction. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    This beautiful maiden was actually a golden celestial.

    The same beautiful maiden was equally surprised to see her standing next to the memorial marker.

    The beautiful maiden was soon smiling as she looked curiously at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden, I don''t remember seeing you around. Who are you? By the way, my name is Shangguan Yan."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily smiled, "I am a lowly celestial from one of the celestial sects here. I am just curious at this memorial marker here and so I am just taking a look."

    She was indeed a lowly celestial now; it was because she had used the Mystic Eyes Cultivation Profound Art to change her eyes color.

    Shangguan Yan nodded and smiled, "How may I address you? Maybe I can help you?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was thinking whether she should kill this Shangguan Yan but when she had heard that this maiden may be able to help her so she smiled, "I am Maiden Xiao. I am just wondering where this Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now. I''d like to meet him."

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "It isn''t easy to meet him and that is because he is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now. But if Maiden Xiao would really like to meet him then perhaps, I can make an introduction for you in the future."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked surprised, "You can? Are you from the same celestial n as him?"

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "A beautiful maiden like Maiden Xiao is surely to attract his attention. Therefore I should help to make such an introduction in the future."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was thinking: So, this Ji Yuan is nothing but a lecherous fool.

    All of a sudden Shangguan Yan giggled softly as she ran off, "I just remember that I''ve got something really important. Remember my name is Shangguan Yan. Don''t forget my name, Maiden Xiao. Farewell!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao frowned slightly when Shangguan Yan had suddenly left just like this and she thought: Consider yourself lucky tonight. So it seems that I should go to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth instead¡­

    She had not expected that she would get this piece of information so readily and without creating a disturbance. Is this supposed to be her lucky day?

    Shangguan Yan on the other hand had fled as quickly as possible; it was because she knew that this maiden was too dangerous and she could sense her hidden killing intents.

    In terms of sensing the intents of her opponents, Shangguan Yan has almost no equal.

    Also, she had heard from her Sister Consort Fairy Ye Chengxi about a maiden with white hair that had challenged her to a game of chance and she had a strong guts that this Maiden Xiao may be the very same person.

    Even though her sword skill may be slow but her intellect is superior than most.

    The instant that she had seen this Maiden Xiao, she could sense her hidden killing intent that she had concealed on purpose and that was why she had purposely greeted her in an amicable manner to put her off guard.

    Her suspicious was further confirmed that this Maiden Xiao was a spy when she did not state which celestial sect that she has belonged to.

    Shangguan Yan was too smart to tell her to rify this or else it would surely raise her suspicious.

    Rather she had pretended to be offering her a helping hand.

    When she had learnt that this Maiden Xiao was looking for Ji Yuan, she was quite amused because in the Eons Firmament Mountains, everyone knows of Ji Yuan as the Great Hero Ji Yuan and that he was not in the Eons Firmament Mountains but this Maiden Xiao actually did not know about this.

    She was really not a good spy.

    But Shangguan Yan had purposely told her where Ji Yuan was and she had also used this little distraction to escape as soon as possible.

    There was a reason why Ji Yuan had once taken Shangguan Yan as his direct prot¨¦g¨¦ in the past and that was because he had found the young Shangguan Yan to be really sharp with her instinct and that she could easily channeled profound energies into sword energies.

    But Ji Yuan had made one mistake that caused him to almost cough out blood and he did not know that Shangguan Yan was ever so slow in her sword arts and he had to scold her constantly to be better.

    Shangguan Yan''s main strengths were never her sword arts but her quick instincts and sharp wits.

 Chapter 666 The Evil Alliance (R18)

    ?

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    In the bed chamber of the Evil Cultivation Master, there were also Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night and the Sagess Alyssa.

    They were all naked because they were all dual cultivating together.

    Sagess Alyssa Lu Yinxuan was smiling as she looked at the naked beautiful and slender body of Number 2 Murong Yue.

    She curled an enticing smile to say to Number 2 Murong Yue, "From today onward, you will be my Sister Murong Yue and we will be dual cultivating together with our master."

    Number 2 Murong Yue dreamily nodded slowly and she was flustered; she was now only too eager for their ''master'' to bang her.

    It took Number 2 Murong Yue several days to ovee her inhibitions before she was eager in the dual cultivation and it had be something that she was now ustomed and even looking forward for it.

    By now, the three of them had formed an Evil Alliance in secret within the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The Evil Cultivation Master had now won an important ally that he could use to regain his Dark Commander title from the Goddess Mel.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce was his prized creation and the Evil Cultivation Master was itsmander but the Great Demon God had instead ced the Goddess Mel asmander now for his failures.

    This infiltrated the Evil Cultivation Master.

    It was because the Goddess Mel was merely Sagess Mel in the past but the Great Demon God had increased her cultivation realm to Goddess and ced her as Dark Commander in charge of the Evil Cultivation Pce now.

    The Evil Cultivation Master had once created 3 Evil Citadels for his 2 sons and 1 daughter and they were once part of the Evil Cultivation Pce. However, one of his sons had died now and his only ''daughter'' the Little Princess had defected to join Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Yin Wei is his only sessor now and the Evil Cultivation Master is quite proud of turning him because he is his greatest creation; he had turned Yin Wei into an ugly powerful metamorphosis cultivator.

    He is truly proud of Yin Wei!

    And he believes that Yin Wei would be able to kill Ji Yuan if he chances upon him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Now he soon has another proud creation and that is Number 2 Murong Yue; she is going to be his strongest metamorphosis cultivator and she shall be his weapon against the Goddess Mel and even the Great Demon God.

    How dare the Great Demon God, a demonic race of the Deste Divine Realm insulted the honor of the Great Deste Immortals!

    He had temporary sought refuge under the Great Demon God after the disastrous defeat of the Ancient Fortress by the Pangu Immortals thousands of years ago.

    His mighty Great Deste Immortal Race was betrayed by the True Deste Gods when they had only sent a token invasion and their true intention is actually the Celestial Realm.

    The Celestial Realm is a rich divine realmpared to the Deste Divine Realm and the Great Demon God has the intention of making the Celestial Realm into his new divine realm.

    At this moment, the Evil Cultivation Master were lecherous looking at the back view of Murong Yue and the Sagess Alyssa as they kneeled down on all fours. From there, he could clearly see their two holy valleys.

    With a lecherous look, he began to thrust his fingers impolitely, one left and one right into their first holy valleys and they began to moan lewdly as thrusts continued nonstop.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was pleased as he increased the speed of his thrusts while rubbing his thumbs at their second holy valleys.

    In that instant, their lewd waters began to spurt nonstop and their lewd moaning had also increased; they were sticking their tongues with uncontroble passions and they were swinging back and forth, their boobs drooping and swinging like see-saws as they started to beg the Evil Cultivation Master to dual cultivate with them.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was pleased with his new toy Murong Yue and she was bing more like the Sagess Alyssa now.

    He knew that at the very start that Number 2 Murong Yue was nning to kill him but even for someone with her strong will, she could not escape from his evil dual cultivation profound art once she had be his living melting cauldron.

    Naturally the whole game was on his ying level and not hers.

    The demonic race from the Deste Divine Realm has always looked down on the immortals from the Immortal Divine Realm and have thought of themselves as the superior race.

    So he knows that Number 2 Murong Yue was basically looking down upon him and only see him as someone that she could make use to seek vendetta on Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    However, the Evil Cultivation Master sees her only as his pawn to further his own gains and nothing else.

    Number 2 Murong Yue was drooling now and she had turned her lovely head to look with great passions at the ugly old Evil Cultivation Master and wondered why he had not banged her like a slut yet. The only words that she could mutter out in her passionate moans were, "Master¡­ I want¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation Master was delighted to hear her begging moans; just a few days ago she was most unwilling in her heart and even refused to perform obscene profanities with him.

    But no longer; she was now all ready to perform all forms of obscenities with him as long as it pleased the Evil Cultivation Master.

    That was why today he had even invited the Sagess Alyssa into their evil dual cultivation profanities together to gain even more profound power by increasing his immortal soul sea.

    He replied with a cold smirk as he thrusts even more rapidly with his fingers, "Very soon enough when you are wet and lusty enough. I shall give the two of you the heavens of your life and rightly so, because I''m your master¡­"

    What happened next could not be described and could only be left to the imagination.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, 5th level;

    Li Ye, Guo Tianming and Shen Qin were pleased with themselves as they appeared on the ins of the 5th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Shen Qin from the Astonishing Sword Manor and also 1 of the 5 major unorthodox ns from the Deste Celestial Fraternity was looking pleased with himself as he said to Li Ye and Guo Tianming, "Haha brothers. I didn''t think that we can make it to the 5th floor of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This is too amazing!"

    e¦Áglesn?¦Íel Li Ye muttered weakly, "What is so amazing about this¡­ we are just lucky to find a B Trial on the 4th level¡­"

    Guo Tianmingughed as he patted his pot belly, "Luck is also a factor to determine our cultivation fortunes! I am betting that Ji Yuan is probably searching everywhere for the B Trials to get as far as possible."

    Li Ye said unhappily, "I actually want to take that A Trial much earlier but the two of you stopped me."

    Shen Qinughed, "This is for your own good. I don''t want you to get killed in that trial for no good reasons. Also, we don''t know what the nature of that trial is. What if it is a fight to the finish? Then we would be screwed."

    Guo Tianming chuckled too, "That is right!"

    Li Ye frowned, "Young Master Shen Qin, you''re a middle-tier saint. You would be afraid?

    Then he turned to Guo Tianming and frowned too, "Sect leader Guo Tianming, you are a golden supremacy, do you have to be so cautious?"

    Li Ye himself is only a fifth cultivation realm golden celestial and he is also an Ascended Celestial; he is just antonished that the higher cultivation realm golden celestials like Shen Qin and Guo Tianming would be so risk averted.

    Guo Tianming immediately said coolly, "The mysticws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth bnce the low level and the high level golden celestials here. The higher our cultivation here, the harder it is for us to regain our profound strength¡­"

    "¡­ the lower your cultivation level, the faster you can regain your profound strength." Shen Qin interrupted as he continued with a chuckle.

    Li Ye smiled weakly, "But we will also miss out on the great rewards that are in this ce¡­"

    Shen Qin patted Li Ye''s shoulder, "Don''t worry about this. I am rich. It is much more important that we get to preserve our own lives in this ce and to boast about our achievementster."

    Li Ye frowned, "Taking B Trial is an achievement?"

    Guo Tianmingughed as he seized to exin, "Hahaha, of course it is. You must remember that no one will be able to reveal anything about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. We can always exin that this is forbidden and we can get along with it."

    Shen Qin nodded and smiled, "Now we only need to find some S Trial in this ce and to show our faces and the cultivators from our Deste Celestial Realm will think that we are taking the same trials¡­"

    Guo Tianmingughed at the same time, "¡­ But we are only there to show our faces while looking for the B Trials."

    Shen Qinughed aloud, "We are truly geniuses to figure this exploit of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Hahahahaha¡­ we are surely the best cultivation alliance in this ce."

    Shen Qin proudly dered, "Not only in this ce but the entire Celestial Realm as well!"

    Guo Tianmingughed jovially, "You know that Ji Yuan is my best friend and even it is impossible for him to figure out this exploit like us. We are the genius of the geniuses. Hahaha...."

    Shen Qin suddenly had a bright idea as he exined, "Since we are aiming for the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and there are 3 of us here, why don''t we call ourselves the 666 Alliance here?"

    Guo Tianmingughed, "Brother Shen Qin, this is such a good idea. Hahahahaha...."

    Li Ye: ¡­.

    Li Ye: ¡­

    Li Ye: ¡­

    The two of them are so shameless. How did my Sect Leader Ji Yuan get to know them in the first ce?!

 Chapter 667 Old Reverend Beiyuan Has A New ProtÃ©gÃ© Disciple

    ?

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, Inside the Goddess Star Pce;

    It was 8 hours before Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had returned and she was gasping breathlessly.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan who was pacing nonstop ever since Grand Holy Saintess Yuexing had entered the portal that Ji Yuan had indicated, was absolutely delighted when he saw that she had returned.

    He did not even scolded Ji Yuan nor Shui Xisi as they began to fight with each other.

    It was because Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that Shui Xisi was the one that had humiliated him so many centuries ago and he had sworn to avenge his humiliation (See Chapter 169).

    Shui Xisi had actually thought of sparing Ji Yuan that day as she was intrigued by him and did not want to ruin their first impression as she was in the guise of an old woman.

    However, in the end, she could not resist on ''ying'' him for a while before the White Sword Monarch arrived at the scene.

    She did not exactly fight with the White Sword Monarch but she had sensed hising and that this opponent was not going to be an easy one. Since her intention was just to check Ji Yuan''s skills and to teach him a lesson, she had quickly fled into the darkness.

    And Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had really fought with their fists for the past 8 hours, much to the surprise of Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and the Lovely Empress.

    This time round Ji Yuan was much stronger and he could not be bullied by Shui Xisi.

    The three maidens had tried to break off but gave up eventually. It was because they were confused by their fights; Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were both not using their full profound strength and they appeared to be aiming for the faces.

    Bai Qianfeng was well aware of how strong Shui Xisi really was and that she had got the immortal sword of the Great Goddess Alice. In the end she told Yun Chi and the Lovely Empress. "Let them fight shamelessly since they like to fight."

    When Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had returned, Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were still fighting but they stopped when they saw her as well.

    Ji Yuan was breathlessly and was dazed by the scratches on his beautiful face; he was thinking, how did Sisi have so much profound strength in her soul sea?

    On the other hand, Shui Xisi or Sisi was unfazed at all and she wasughing jovially behind him while mocking. "Ji Yuan, you are a few million years too early to punch my face."

    The Lovely Empress muttered weakly to herself, "They have finally stopped wasting their profound strength. What exactly happens between them?"

    She had never seen Ji Yuan so hot faced in the past.

    Ji Yuan was actually not angry, especially when he had learnt his assant was actually Shui Xisi. He just felt awkward and shameful that it was actually Shui Xisi. His only small constion was that he had banged Sisi several times already to make up for his humiliations.

    He had only thought of teaching Sisi a little lesson but she was proving to be an extremely tough nut for him to crack and she got a miracle art that could cause his profound strength to falter.

    But of course, none of them were serious and did not draw their divine weapons.

    Also, they were pretty used to try to beat each other up and were also amusing themselves with the time here.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was smiling when she saw Ji Yuan and Old Reverend Beiyuan, "He is right. This Ji Yuan is right. That is indeed the right portal. Unfortunately, I can''t clear the next portal as well and would need his help again."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan took a look at the smiling Ji Yuan before he muttered weakly, "He is just lucky to solve this portal. It doesn''t mean that he is a genius¡­"

    "Speaking of geniuses," Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a look at Old Reverend Beiyuan. "Aren''t you supposed to acknowledge me as a genius if I can go to Room 25?''

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was startled and he was suddenly blinking his golden eyes weakly, "Erm¡­"

    Then he seized Ji Yuan with a loud chuckle, "Young celestial, consider yourself lucky today."

    Ji Yuan was startled that Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly shed next to him and had seized him like a powerless cultivator, "Let me go. What are you doing? And what do you mean?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Yun Chi was startled and she was shouting, "Let go of Ji Yuan at once!"

    Even the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng were panicky and they were shouting the same as well.

    Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were also shocked inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea and they were both shouting: let''s go of our big brother immediately!

    "What are you trying to do?" Even Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was startled that Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly seized Ji Yuan by his neck.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he muttered breathlessly to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Did I happen to offend you by any chance?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Hohohoho. You have misunderstood me. I have the intention of making you my prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple. That is all."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as well as the others.

    "Is this the way you ought to ask me to be your prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple?" Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Erm, why don''t you let me go first?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohoho, so you have epted?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is he forcing me to ept him as his master?!

    But he muttered weakly, "I don''t get it. Why did you want to ept a lowly celestial as your prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple? Am I a talented cultivator or something? Why not the others?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan shook his head andughed, "Naturally I have my own reasons to make you my prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple instead of the others. Now, your answer is Yes or No?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes breathlessly and knew that he could not freed himself so he had to suck his thumb and said, "Alright master but can you let go of me at once?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially before he released Ji Yuan from his grip, "Hohohoho, from today onward, you''re my prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was totally wordless to answer him and he did not even know why Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly wanted to make him into his prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan turned to look at Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing with jovialughter, "You may be a genius but it is my prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple that has helped you to solve the portal. Therefore, as his master, I am the genius of the geniuses."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Fairy Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    When Ji Yuan and the others had heard him, they were all stunned.

 Chapter 668 Ji Yuanâ€™s Second Immortal Artefact

    ?

    Ji Yuan was stunned;

    In order to be called genius of geniuses, Old Reverend Beiyuan had actually wanted to make him into his own prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple.

    Is there really such a free thing in this world?

    Fairy Xiang Li was growling madly as she raised her fists, almost hitting Fairy Anyang in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big Brother, how dare he tries to take advantage of you! You are the genius and not him!

    Fairy Anyang hummed coldly: This time I have to agree with Xiang Li. It is not so easy to be my lord''s prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple and it is even impossible to lord it over as my lord''s master.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes before he smiled at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "You know. It is not impossible to be my cultivation master but you should at least give me an immortal item or two as a gift first, right?"

    When Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had heard Ji Yuan, they almost fainted from his sheer shamelessness.

    Even Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were awkward at his shamelessness.

    Xiang Li muttered weakly as she covered her face with both her hands: That is indeed my Big Brother.

    Fairy Anyang nodded weakly: That is exactly what to be expected from our lord here¡­

    Ji Yuan did not care about his face to a superior immortal god as he extended his right palm in a gesture to mean this: where is my gift?

    Old Reverend Beiyuan looked a little awkward when he had heard Ji Yuan and saw his open palm extending out.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled before pointing it out to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "He is right. This is only proper. We do have a custom of a master giving an important immortal artefact to a new prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple. Have you forgotten about our rules?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan muttered weakly and he looked reluctant, "But he is a mere celestial and not an immortal. I am afraid that he may not be able to handle any of the immortal artefacts."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he interrupted, "Look at my back. I do have an immortal scabbard on my back and I''m doing fine."

    This immortal scabbard that was on Ji Yuan''s back was able to house two of Ji Yuan''s saintly divine swords and unsheathed them as emperor-step divine swords for a while.

    He grinned, "Master, surely your immortal gift can''t be weaker than my immortal scabbards. Right?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan rolled his golden eyes before looking at Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing for a brief¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled, "How about the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that can help to increases the richness of his inner cultivation spiritual seas? He looks weak in that aspect. This divine pearl may be useful for the two spirit fairies in his soul sea as well."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said with disbelief to Xiang Li and Anyang: I would be weak with my cultivation?!

    Fairy Xiang Li giggled: Indeed big brother, you are a little weak in this aspect.

    Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes: You have the weakest spiritual sea among all the same level cultivators because you are a sword cultivator¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yue gazed at Old Reverend Beiyuan coldly, "He isn''t a bad character or else he would have used the Goddess Tear a long time ago. Moreover, he is also a friend of our great mistress. Or are you an old hoarder?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    With a flustered look and under the fierce gaze of the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, Old Reverend Beiyuan reluctantly took out a golden pearl before he pressed it onto Ji Yuan''s chest, "This is the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. It is an immortal profound treasure from the Great Beyond and it will be able to help you to consolidate your inner spiritual seas. It¡­ have other uses as well and you will soon find out about it¡­"

    e¦Áglesn?¦Íel Shui Xisi was in disbelief that Ji Yuan had got a great immortal profound treasure free just like this and she began to mutter, "This is so unfair¡­ I want an immortal master as well¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The instant that Old Reverend Beiyuan had shed the Golden Natal Divine Pearl, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had already disyed their divine senses onto it. It was mostly out of curiosity as anything from the mysterious Great Beyond was worthy of their attention.

    However, they could only sense that this Golden Natal Divine Pearl was a most precious immortal profound treasure before Old Reverend Beiyuan had quickly caused it to disappear into Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Ji Yuan looked curiously at himself, "But I don''t feel any differences?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan bitterly said, "You have no idea how precious this godly artefact is."

    Godly artefact?!

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi were startled.

    Even Ji Yuan was startled, "It is a godly artefact?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan hummed coldly, "It is a Beyond Divinity immortal artefact. Consider yourself lucky."

    Ji Yuan did not care on the effects of this Golden Natal Divine Pearl anymore. Instead, he wasughing as he turned to look at the maidens in his group. "Hahahaha, I have a godly artefact in the same immortal league as the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Hahahaha¡­ I have a Beyond Divinity profound treasure on me. Hahahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "Show off¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled coolly, "Congrats my lord."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was smiling lovingly, "Ji Yuan, let me y with it for a while. Alright?"

    Yun Chi was literally speechless at Ji Yuan''s good fortune; if only she had one Beyond Divinity profound treasure to study it, she may be able to breakthrough to the Beyond Divinity 10th immortal positioning level. That was the main reason why she was extending her cultivation energies to unravel the mysteries of the canvas imageries here.

    And she had almost said out the same thing as the Lovely Empress.

    But because the Lovely Empress was her prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple, she could not be as shameless as her¡­

    Ji Yuanughed as he bowed with both his hands in front of Old Reverend Beiyuan, "My respect to my Master Old Reverend Beiyuan. Hahaha¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing looked pleased before she smiled, "Come and follow me to the next room."

    And she had shed into the portal to Room 25.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan bitterly followed after her.

    There were envious looks from the maidens and even Bai Qianfeng could not be spared from looking envious at Ji Yuan as they entered the portal together.

    The happiest person among them was naturally Ji Yuan who could not stoppedughing.

    Shui Xisi muttered with sarcasm, "I am sure Ji Yuan is too dumb to figure out how to use the Golden Natal Divine Pearl on his own. He is just horrible with his cultivation¡­"

    The Lovely Empress shrugged her shoulders to say weakly, "I don''t even see him cultivating at all¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had heard her, "I''ve got profound pills that can help me to replenish my cultivation strength¡­"

    "You are not supposed to take too much of these profound pills. It will weaken you and slow down your recovery." Bai Qianfeng reminded Ji Yuan.

    As they conversed, all of them had disappeared in a sh of light inside the portal to Room 25.

 Chapter 669 Room 25 (1)

    ?

    The whole group was now in Room 25.

    There were 27 portals that could be seen in Room 25; 9 portals on the left, middle and right.

    When Ji Yuan had stepped into Room 25, he could still hear the non-stop whispers that were from Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    Shui Xisi was telling the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as she whispered, "You know, he should be called the most shameless cultivator. The thickness of his skin is thicker than even the hide of a ninth rank deste beast."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu nodded as she whispered back, "I am in total agreement with you. He is just too shameless!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and thought with a frown: When did they suddenly be the best of friends now?!

    One must know that Shui Xisi had only recently rejoined his group after being separated at the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth after some time of absence. (See Chapter 634).

    Therefore, she did not exactly know the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong or the Smiling Divine Maiden. And even Yang Min and his Old Master the White Sword Monarch.

    Fairy Xiang Li was giggling to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, they are calling you shameless. You ought to punish them by banging them hard!

    Fairy Anyang was face-palmed when she had heard Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned silently to Xiang Li and said: Xiang Li, we really need to have talk on your uneducated behavior here.

    Fairy Xiang Li giggled: But isn''t this what you want, Big Brother?

    Ji Yuan chuckled shamelessly: I am a gentleman of the sword¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly: Like real¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly thought of something and said to them, "Anyang, Xiang Li. Especially Xiang Li who is my most useless best friend. I want the two of you to do something for me¡­"

    Fairy Xiang Li interrupted unhappily: Huh? I am your most useless best friend?

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li and chuckle: To make yourself more useful, the two of you shall study this Golden Natal Divine Pearl and cultivate it for me.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered with disbelief: This is too shameless. You are not cultivating it on your own?

    Ji Yuanughed in his soul sea: I am a little busy. Since the two of you have the time, why don''t you have me to cultivate the Golden Natal Divine Pearl first. Hahaha¡­

    Outside, Shui Xisi was whispering to the Lovely Empress, "Look at Ji Yuan. He must be thinking of something that is shameless again."

    The Lovely Empress asked softly, "What shameless stuff again?"

    Shui Xisi whispered in a low voice, "Like looking at the butts of Yun Chi and Qianfeng that are in front of him. So don''t stand in front of him. He likes to see the swaying butts of beautiful maidens¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not deaf you know. Moreover, I have sharp ears as well¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had quickly interrupted everyone by saying, "So which portals should we take?"

    She was pointing to the 27 portals in front of her, dividing into 9 portals on the left, middle and right.

    There was a canvas imagery of the True Devil God (the Boundless Sovereign Demon God) and the Great Beyond Goddess that was at the center.

    But strangely when they were standing on the right, the canvas image would seem to rotate right with the Great Beyond Goddess facing the left side of the portals and the True Devil God facing the right.

    But when they were standing on the left, the directions would be reverse.

    Even more strange, when they were in the middle, the canvas imagery did not rotate anymore and the True Devil God''s back was at the middle and the Great Beyond Goddess was facing the middle.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing exined as she looked at Ji Yuan, "The profound imageries here will get even more intricating and may even appear to be alive from this point onward. It won''t be easy at this point and we may even need several trials and errors to find the right portal."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan turned to take a hopeful look at Ji Yuan, "Now you see why we have been struck here for so many thousands of years?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly to himself: Why are they all looking at me like this? This is tough even for me to decipher¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan shed next to Ji Yuan as he gave him a pat on his shoulder, "Well my genius disciple, so which portal should I take now?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he looked at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "My genius of geniuses master, you''re asking me?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan could suddenly feel that there were six pairs of eyes that were looking at him and he was awkward all of a sudden¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan muttered as he raised his hand into a fist as though he was about to hammer Ji Yuan, "Naturally I am asking you."

    How dare this Ji Yuan took his immortal gift and refused to answer him!

    Ji Yuan naturally could sense the killing intents from Old Reverend Beiyuan and he quicklyughed awkwardly, "Wait, wait! I was only kidding just now. Of course, I do have a solution but let me think first. Alright? I have only just arrived at this ce¡­."

    He quickly threw a random hint, "It seems that we may have to get into a 69 position in this ce first¡­"

    "Where did you get the 6 from?" Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing interrupted Ji Yuan curiously.

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Erm¡­"

    Shui Xisi added with a bitter smile, "I think he may be thinking of something else at this moment¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Hahaha¡­"

    While they were all in the center of the hallway to n for their next move, suddenly there was a loud thundering sound that shook the entire golden hallway.

    4 golden golems had suddenly appeared in 4 different directions!

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had turned ashen and she was shouting, "I''ll go left. Old Beiyuan, block the guardian on the far right!"

    Then she turned to look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "The two of you block the middle!"

    And she turned around to look at Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi even as she shed to the far left. "The three of you block the guardian at the entrance. Remember this! We must allow them to merge together, no matter the costs!"

    The Lovely Empress panicky asked, "We can hold them back?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had already shed to the far left to do battle with the golden golem but she had raised her profound voice to say sharply. "We can only depend on Celestial Ji Yuan to tell us which portal to take before it is toote."

    Ji Yuan had already unsheathed both his saintly divine swords from his scabbard as it transformed into two emperor-step divine swords. "I am suddenly so stressed now¡­"

    Shui Xisi had tapped him on his shoulders as she said solemnly, "Ji Yuan, I''ll try to hold the guardian back. You must quickly decipher the message in the canvas imageries for us¡­"

    And when she had said that, she had suddenly unleashed her sword from her belt and there was a golden blink of profound light; it was not any divine sword but an immortal sword!

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had already shed to the middle and they were astonished by this brilliant golden light.

    But Yun Chi had recognized this golden light and she was gasping, "The immortal sword of the Goddess Celestial Alice. Is she going to unseal it?"

    e¦Áglesn?¦Íel Even the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan were startled as they could sense a powerful profound light that was suddenly appearing from Shui Xisi.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; Shui Xisi''s ''divine'' sword is actually more powerful than his two emperor-step divine swords!

    He thought further: No, it is not a divine sword but an immortal sword!

    There was a look of wetness in Bai Qianfeng''s golden eyes as she recalled the ancient days when she was felled by the Astronomic Eulogy Divine Sword the immortal sword of the Great Goddess Alice, the ruler of the Immortal Divine Realm.

    ----------------------

    Author Notes:

    1. Jiajia didn''t inherit the Astronomic Eulogy immortal sword as stated a long time. It is actually her Sister Sisi that inherited their mother consort''s immortal sword.

 Chapter 670 Room 25 (2)

    ?

    "Remember! Don''t let theme together or it would be disastrous for us if they are to merge together! Ji Yuan, quickly figure out which way to go!"

    That was Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing''sst instructions before shepletely focused all her attention on the golden golem to the left.

    The golden golem that Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was fighting was twice asrge as them and it was imbued with a powerful immortal profound animus that was golden.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing quickly got into her fighting form and everyone was startled that Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had released even more profound energies than when she was fighting the abyssal monster and there was a spirit animus in the form of a golden winged dragon that was coiling around her white profound animus!

    That was because she had expended too much of her profound strength while attempting the Goddess Star Pce and she had to use her trump card now.

    With a soft shout, she had unleashed dozens of waves of profound swords on the seemingly invincible golden golem.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan on the other hand had tumbled his heavy body like a feather at the golden golem to the right and he was shouting mightily with both his fists raised, "Hohohoho, I am not afraid of you!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and so were the other maidens when they had heard Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Ji Yuan thought weakly: Does he have to go ''Hohohoho'' in battle?

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were up against a golden golem in the middle.

    Yun Chi had unleashed 24 immortal-steps divine swords as her wings and hovering swords. At the same time, she had also raised her emperor-step divine sword, a half-step immortal sword as she made the first attack against golden golem.

    To her startled surprise, the golden golem was just knocked back one step with a mighty blow from all her profound power while her profound attack was seemingly deflected and she was forced to take seven steps backward before she was caught by Bai Qianfeng.

    Yun Chi gasped aloud, "This monstrosity is tough!"

    Bai Qianfeng muttered weakly as she caught of Yun Chu, "I didn''t expect that we can cut them down like tofu¡­"

    But she quickly added, "These guardians are almost indestructible and even the two God Immortals seem to be dying them instead of oveing them. We ought to do the same and fight to dy for Ji Yuan rather than to win. And also, we need to remember not to let them merge together¡­"

    Yun Chi nodded and she had shed to engage the golden golem once again even before Bai Qianfeng had finished.

    Bai Qianfeng raised her celestial-step divine sword and released her immortal profound animus to her peak; in that instant two abyssal null eyes had formed on both sides of her as she muttered. "Abyssal lightnings of my Abyssal Eyes. Destroy the guardian in front of me."

    Almost immediately, dozens of purple and golden lightnings began to streak across her two abyssal null eyes to zap the guardian with shocking loud impacts.

    Although the sound of the impacts was loud but the golden golem guardian was unfazed by the profound power of the lightnings that were as strong as the Divine Cmity.

    In the meantime, Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi were fighting against another of the golden golem guardian.

    Shui Xisi had shed her immortal sword on the golden golem and exploded a powerful explosion of profound energies to halt it even as she shouted, "Fifth seal unsealed!"

    But she was flung back by the profound energies as well and she was angry, "It seems that even my fifth seal ispletely useless."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She pointed her immortal sword at the iing golden golem guardian and shouted, "Unsealed Sixth Seal! The Wraths of the Heaven and the Earth!"

    Ji Yuan shouted as he attacked instinctively with his two emperor-step divine swords as he mustered his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as two powerful piercing waves of profound sword energies halted the golden golem guardian for a blink of an eye.

    He was startled that he did not even do any damage with his most powerful sword energies techniques.

    He began to frown, "You are quite a tough nut here. Now I am mad. You really want me to melee with you with my ultimate grand cross sword art and seize you with my sword domains¡­"

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly interrupted him solemnly by tapping him on the shoulder to his right, "Ji Yuan, you mustn''t fight anymore¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu looked at him solemnly as she said gravely, "You can''t use your sword intentions if you are distracted with solving the hints that are up there in the canvas imagery. I want you to focus on solving it instead of focusing on this futile battle. Can''t you see that these guardians are undefeatable?"

    Ji Yuan began to shutter briefly when he had heard her, "Maiden Jiangsu, the two of you can''t cope¡­"

    But the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu interrupted him softly and there was a wet shimmer in her lovely golden eyes, "Know this Ji Yuan, even if I were to die in this ce¡­ I love you. Don''t take vendetta for me. Do me a favor by being alive at the end of the day and may our souls meet one day¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had shed to join Shui Xisi in battle and she had released her angelic spirit animus.

    Ji Yuan was trembling when he had heard her and his heart was angry as he muttered to himself, "How do you all expect me to solve the hint in such a short time? What if I were to make the wrong decision and kill all of you instead¡­ I can''t do this¡­"

    He had broken into a cold sweat as he stolen a nce to look at Yun Chi and he was even more startled when he saw that Yun Chi was holding onto her belly with her other hand¡­

    His unborn daughter was fighting with her mother over there¡­

    For the very first time he was fearful, not because he feared his enemies but he feared that he would make the wrong decisions.

    But if he did not make the decision anytime soon then even the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi would die in this ce. So would Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and his unborn daughter as well¡­

    Fairy Xiang Li stammered: Big Brother, what do we do now? Which portal should we take?

    But Ji Yuan did not seem to hear her.

    Fairy Anyang had suddenly said: Sister Consort Xiang Li. If I were to die, always remember me as your best friend¡­

    Xiang Li was startled: Anyang, what do you mean?

    But Fairy Anyang had already vanished in a blink of an eye in the soul sea¡­

 Chapter 671 Room 25 (3)

    ?

    Just as Shui Xisi was hesitant if she should unseal the seventh seal of her immortal sword and whether she could control the wild profound power that was in the Astronomic Eulogy, there was a sudden blink of light from behind her.

    This startled Ji Yuan and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as well.

    A slender and beautiful youthful maiden had suddenly appeared from within Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she was Fairy Anyang.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes; he had not remembered calling for Fairy Anyang to be materialized to the outside¡­

    All of a sudden, the spiritual profound animus that was around Fairy Anyang seemed to be changing and she was gaining a physical form.

    But that was not all, she was also maturing into a most alluring young maiden and even her flowing hair seemed to be growing as well.

    Ji Yuan had to blink his golden eyes several eyes to be sure that this was really Anyang and he was muttering, "Anyang, is that you?"

    Fairy Anyang nodded slightly and the transformed emperor-step divine sword began to fly into her extended right hand, "My lord. This is your Anyang¡­"

    The sudden appearance of Fairy Anyang had not gone unnoticed by Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as well; they were astonished by the sudden bright animus.

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were the most astonished as they were the closest to Fairy Anyang when she had suddenly appeared.

    Ji Yuan said with a startled look, "What are you doing here¡­"

    Fairy Anyang flew to assist Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress as she shouted softly without turning her head around, "My lord, I hope that you would remember your Anyang as well. Hurry and solve the clues in the canvas imagery. Your Anyang will cover you!"

    The spiritual force around Fairy Anyang had suddenly increased tremendous and renewing the profound strength of Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress all of a sudden.

    "This is¡­" Shui Xisi was startled as she regained some of her profound strength.

    Even the Lovely Empress was looking more spirited than a while ago.

    Fairy Anyang gasped to them, "Heehee, don''t forget that I am still a spirit fairy that is older than the two of youbined and also a S Trial Spirit. This is my true form naturally and it is something that I don''t wish to reveal unless I have no other choices. Unlike Xiang Li, I am notpletely useless¡­"

    Xiang Li had heard Anyang alright in Ji Yuan''s soul sea and she was covering her face: Wuwuwu, Xiang Li can''t fight and ispletely useless¡­

    But all of a sudden, she began to lit up and she was shouting: I may be the useless Xiang Li but I can enhance everyone''s spirit animus except for myself¡­

    Ji Yuan could suddenly feel a sudden spiritual force surge that was surging to all corners of the hallway, affecting the spirit animus of everyone including Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing''s golden dragon spirit animus.

    The deste angels of Yun Chi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had suddenly grown in profound power while Fairy Anyang and Bai Qianfeng also had their profound animus being strengthened!

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was startled as she turned to nce at Ji Yuan: Is this the power of the Goddess'' Tear?

    She could suddenly feel that the profound power of her golden dragon animus had suddenly been increased and that her cultivation level was temporary increased to that of an upper 10th immortal positioning, matching Old Reverend Beiyuan¡­

    A trembling Ji Yuan was staring at the top of the dome now, trying to decipher the canvas imagery as soon as possible now.

    Everyone was fighting so hard so that they could give him a chance to try to decipher the canvas imagery and he was their only hope.

    Ji Yuan angrily said to himself, "Darn it. I want to fight so badly¡­ this sword saint here wants to fight with the rest¡­"

    But he knew that this battle was not his to fight and everyone was fighting for him instead.

    He felt as though there was a mountain of weight that was pressing upon him now.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan panicky stared at the canvas imagery at the top of the dome and he was muttering, "There are 9 portals on the left, middle and right¡­"

    "The canvas imagery changes when I go left or right but stop when I go to the middle to view it¡­"

    "Do I go to the left or right? Or even the middle?"

    "But there are 9 portals on each side¡­ but there is only one side that is the real path¡­ and which of the 9 portals should I take?"

    "If I stand on the right side, then the canvas imagery will rotate to the right and the Great Beyond Goddess would be looking at the left side of the hallway¡­"

    "If I stand on the left side, then the canvas imagery will rotate to the left and the Great Beyond Goddess would be looking at the right side of the hallway¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s mind was in a turmoil as he cursed while turning to look at the direction of Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Fairy Anyang with a worrisome look, "How the heck do I know which direction is the correct one? Left or right, does it even make a difference? The number of portals is all the same¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan yelled aloud while thinking out loud, startling the others, "No, wait! A circle has no end! Left or right, does it really matter? The answer has to be an odd number¡­"

    "27 portals¡­ what is the middle of 27? It is 14. The number 14th portal! This is also the portal that is in the middle of the middle direction as well¡­"

    He began to shout aloud, "Everyone! Follow me to the portal in the middle!"

    Shui Xisi was fighting desperately against the golden golem and she was still thinking if she wanted to risk unsealing her immortal sword when she had heard Ji Yuan shouting out loud, "Huh? So fast?!"

    Even Fairy Anyang was surprised of the speed that Ji Yuan had resolved the hints, "My lord is so fast? Or is he faking it?"

    Shui Xisi had the same thoughts as Fairy Anyang as well; it was because Ji Yuan had once wasted so much of their group''s time while at the lower levels and he seemed to enjoy taking his own sweet time.

    If Ling Feiyue was here, she would constantly remind the group at how pissed off she was with Ji Yuan when they were taking the trials together and at one point of the time, Ji Yuan had even attacked her at the beginning of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when he was taking the trial too seriously.

    Xiang Li asked curiously in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big Brother, are you sure? Do you want to think over again?

    Ji Yuan did not want to think over it because everyone was struck at an impossible to win fight that could even cause God Immortals to falter.

    So he shed to the 14th portal and shouted urgently, "What are you all waiting for? Come over here immediately!"

    The Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi were just knocked back by the profound attack of the golden golem and they were now shouting back panicky, "Alright. Wait for us¡­"

    Fairy Anyang picked the two fallen maidens to their footings and said solemnly, "We got to trust Ji Yuan on this!"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing shouted to the rest, "What are you all doing? Come into that portal now! We will hold them off first!"

    By ''we'', she was actually referring to Old Reverend Beiyuan and herself.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng nodded as they hastily moved to where Ji Yuan was.

    When Ji Yuan saw that Fairy Anyang, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Bai Qianfeng the Null Abyssal Goddess and Yun Chi were all next to him, he said quickly. "We don''t have time to think anymore. We have to go in now¡­"

    Even as he said this, the two golden golems were already almost in their way and they had nowbined to form a bigger golden guardian and its profound power was even more terrifying when 4 golden golemsbined!

    Ji Yuan began to pull all the maidens along with him as he solemnly said, "Let''s hope that I am right¡­"

 Chapter 672 Genius Of All The Geniuses

    ?

    Ji Yuan was right.

    The portal that he had picked was exactly right.

    There was a dazzling of light when Ji Yuan and his group had exited the portal into another golden hallway.

    This had to be Room 26 since there was 28 portals in this ce.

    Even though the fight hadsted only briefly but it looked like an eternity.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were looking extremely pale and they had almost exhausted all their profound strength in keeping the guardian golden golem of the Goddess Star Pce at bay.

    Even Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were perspiring heavily.

    They were all quite relieved that Ji Yuan was able to decipher the right portal so quickly.

    All of a sudden they were all looking at Ji Yuan as though he was their hero now¡­

    They were quickly followed behind by the breathless Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho. This is really a close shave. We''ve actually made it to safety here."

    There was a rare smile that was on Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as she nodded while expressing a look of relief at Old Reverend Beiyuan; this was a rare asion of agreement between them.

    On the other hand, Ji Yuan was staring at Fairy Anyang and he had a look of bewilderment, "Erm, Anyang¡­ is that really you?"

    She was really astonishing beautiful but her robe was really too revealing and look a little too small for her grown up size now.

    There was a flush on Fairy Anyang''s countenance as she quickly turned into a misty sh of light as she retreated back to Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "She don''t have to be so shy. I haven''t see enough yet¡­"

    Actually Ji Yuan was not the only one that was surprised.

    Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were also astonished; they had known Fairy Xiahou Anyang for quite some time now and they had never known that she could transform from an immature maiden into such an astonishing alluring maiden.

    Although Yun Chi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were also surprised to see Fairy Anyang in her most allure form but they were more surprised by that fact that Fairy Anyang could take on a physical form instead of being a spirit fairy.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly when Fairy Anyang had suddenly disappeared just like this but he was soon staring at the bulging open bosoms of the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and he was drooling with a lecherous look.

    He had made no secret of his hidden desire as he said to himself: How many millions high grade spirit stones she is worth again? For a single session?

    Xiang Li chuckled for she could hear Ji Yuan''s loud thoughts in the soul sea that they were inhabiting together: Big Brother, you are having your dirty thoughts again.

    By now Anyang had shrunk back to her normal self and she was flustered. But she managed a chuckle to say: I am betting that he wants to bang the Lovely Empress now.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly to them: Actually, any of these maidens are all heaven-defying beauties. I just want to bang them day and night. Hahaha¡­

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly: Our lord here is just like a top cultivator that shakes his head that he has screwed up for his cultivation trials but when the results havee out, he still tops all the cultivators¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: More like he says he don''t want to bang them but he still wants to bang them in his heart.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned at Xiang Li: I still remember that we have something to talk about your bad habits and lusty behavior, right Xiang Li?

    Xiang Li began to giggle when she had heard Ji Yuan but said nothing.

    Ji Yuan continued to frown as he continued: And where are you when we are all fighting just now?

    Xiang Li giggled back: Hey Big Brother, you didn''t even fight just now while I was lending them my spiritual support!

    Ji Yuan growled: I did fight but they told me not to! And we all know that your spiritual support ispletely useless and it sounds more like moral support while doing nothing¡­

    Fairy Anyang sighed softly: These two are always bickering. Sometimes, I don''t even know what is going on between the two of them...

    Ji Yuan suddenly said out of the blue as he appeared to beughing: This ce is too small. I want to find a ce to bang Sisi whole day and night. Darn, she is the one that had pulled my beard that night¡­ for humiliating me, I want to humiliate her back¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    However Xiang Li was giggling at Ji Yuan''s remarks instead and replied with a loud chuckle: That''s my Big Brother! This n is good!

    Ji Yuan began tough jovially: Hahahahaha¡­

    As Ji Yuan wasughing to himself while maintaining a coolposure to hide his true intentions, Old Reverend Beiyuan was suddenlyughing out too.

    "Hohohohoho¡­"

    Ji Yuan and his group were startled by the powerful profoundughter that was emitting from Old Reverend Beiyuan and they began to look in his direction.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had turned to say to Ji Yuan with a loud chuckle, "Hohohoho. I am the genius of geniuses. But I must admit that my disciple here is the genius of the genius of geniuses¡­"

    "I am just the genius of all the geniuses." Interrupted Ji Yuan without any shame and he wasughing too.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nodded as he gave Ji Yuan a hearty pat, "We didn''t pick the wrong person. Maybe you are just the right person to help us to escape from this ce, with or without the Goddess'' Tear¡­"

    Ji Yuan suddenly began to frown weakly now; he had a bad feeling all of a sudden¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan grinned as he started to pat nonstop on Ji Yuan''s shoulders, "Therefore may this genius of all the geniuses help us to pick the right portals for the rest of the rooms in the Goddess Star Pce."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to protest weakly, "Erm, I am a great saint while you are a Beyond Divinity God. The disparity between us is like heavens and the earth. And you are asking me to help you to escape from your trials?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed without any shame or awkwardness, "Hohohoho. It is the duty of the disciple to assist the master. This settles this once and for all. Go and check the canvas imageries now, genius of all the geniuses."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did I say anything about agreeing with what you''re saying?

 Chapter 673 Room 31 (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now tasked to solve Room 26, taking the ce of Old Reverend Beiyuan to do so.

    Not only Room 26 but all the other rooms as well.

    The only thing that Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing needed to do was to take turn to check the portals. That is, if they did not encounter any guardians at all.

    Ji Yuan naturally did not dare to take his time because he was most afraid of encountering the guardians and the two God Immortals had told them that the longer that he took to solve the hints from the dome''s canvas imageries, then the risk of encountering the guardians would be much higher.

    Also the canvas imageries had be more and more lifelike as well and it was like a hologram instead; the canvas imageries had evolved to the point of it being animated and it was watching the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess in action.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were even more excited and were intrigued by the canvas imageries.

    Even Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were impressed by Ji Yuan''s ability to get them to the right portals.

    As for Ji Yuan, he had to suck his thumb and embarked on solving the canvas imageries to get to the next room, all in the name of being called the ''Genius of all the geniuses''.

    All in all, Ji Yuan took about 4 days before they were finally in Room 31 now.

    The reason why they had taken 4 days to solve the next 5 rooms were not because Ji Yuan had told the two God Immortals the wrong answers.

    He had been right in his deductions and this had actually impressed the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan so much that they were now respectful to him in their attitudes; Gone was their usual lofty attitude towards him.

    The main issue why they were slowing down was because the wait between the intervals from the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan were now getting longer as well; they were both looking extremely fatigued and none of them had actually guessed the right portal in the next room before returning to group with Ji Yuan again.

    Also, the canvas imageries were getting harder for Ji Yuan to decipher and he had to spend several hours to ponder it over.

    Of course, he had also received a no thanks from Xiang Li''s side as she tried to guess the right portal and was wrong.

    He could only mutter weakly to her: Thanks, but no thanks Xiang Li. You''repletely useless.

    Now that they were in Room 31 now, Old Reverend Beiyuan solemnly said to him. "After Room 30, the imageries here will get more erratic and it will be even more difficult to get to the right portal. Previously, my junior sister and I didn''t get past Room 32 and the year is quickly up."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing nodded and she was looking really pale; it was because for the past several days, they had been expending all their profound strength to open the gates of the Goddess Star Pce as well as taking punishments for their failures.

    Even though Ji Yuan and his group had not seen them taking any divine pills but Ji Yuan could tell that they had actually consumed out of sight from them; it was because their profound animus were considerably weaker now.

    And when Ji Yuan was deciphering the canvas imageries, the two God Immortals were quietly meditating to regain their profound strength.

    Even the usual imp-like Old Reverend Beiyuan was unusually quiet as he retreated into his meditation almost immediately.

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress did not want to disturb Ji Yuan as he deciphered the canvas imageries as this concerned everyone''s life and death, so they decided to cultivate instead by following the footsteps of Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng.

    It was kind of eerie quiet for Ji Yuan even though he was in a group of 6 others, minus noisy Xiang Li and Anyang of course.

    But this was something that he had been tasked to do. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    So, he looked up to the canvas imagery on the dome and tried to do his very best.

    In this canvas imagery, the Great Beyond Goddess was fighting the True Devil God in an inertia barrier and the misty golden eyes of the Great Beyond Goddess seemed to be shimmering.

    It seemed to Ji Yuan that the Great Beyond Goddess seemed to have trapped the True Devil God in an immortal formation and that the final hour of victory was now here. That exined the shimmering in the misty golden eyes of the Great Beyond Goddess and the awkward look that seemed to havee from the True Devil God.

    Naturally this was Ji Yuan''s guess since the Great Beyond Goddess was veiled and the True Devil God was masked.

    In order to validate this conclusion, he had to observe the moving canvas imageries first as they fought against each other and he did not know how long this would take.

    Xiang Li had suddenly chuckled to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I have an idea for you. Do you want to listen?

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Fairy Anyang: ???

    Xiang Li seemed truly proud of this great idea of hers as she giggled with great delight: Why don''t we lie to them about the right portal? With only a day or so left before we can exit this ce to im our trial rewards, it is alright to guess incorrectly for once or twice. I doubt that they have much profound strength left. Heeheee¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned back: Xiang Li, we are not going to make the incorrect guess. I am going to solve the mystery of this room instead.

    Xiang Li was surprised: Huh? Isn''t this your n to dy as much as possible until the 7 days are up?

    Ji Yuan frowned most unhappily: You are outdated. Now, I am going to do my best.

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes: ???

    She asked curiously: We are going to help them? When did you change your mind about helping them?

    Ji Yuan frowned: Of course we will try to help them. And I''ve already changed my mind some time ago. Don''t you know?

    Xiang Li muttered weakly: Erm, I don''t?

    Fairy Anyang patted Xiang Li softly and giggled: Our lord has decided to help them when the two God Immortals have called him the ''Genius of all the Geniuses''. That maybe our lord''s new immortal title now and this fits his big ego.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly and he looked awkward: Anyang, you can eat the wrong foods but you can''t say the wrong words! What big ego? I don''t have any ego at all. Hahaha¡­

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

 Chapter 674 Room 31 (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuanmely told Xiang Li and Anyang: A big ego person don''t forgive easily. You can really tell that I don''t have a big ego when I am now willing to help the two God Immortals. Hahaha¡­

    Fairy Anyang muttered: But that is only because they have praised you as the ''Genius of all the Geniuses''¡­

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear from Anyang anymore that he was now busy inspecting the canvas imageries. "Shhhh, Anyang. I need to focus now. I''ll talk to youter."

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li on the other hand simply shrugged her shoulders; it was because she was already used to the flip reversals by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was really staring at the canvas imagery at the top of the dome and he was trying to decipher for any clues that may lead him to pick 1 of the 33 portals in Room 31.

    But this time it was not easy; it was because he found himself immersed by the canvas imagery instead and he had suddenly lost his orientations.

    He began to ask himself: Where are they looking at now and which direction is the correct one?

    As the divine sense of Ji Yuan began to immerse himself into the canvas imagery, there was a daze that dulled Ji Yuan''s senses all of a sudden.

    He then began to try to shake the daze off by heightening his focus; luckily for him he had long mastered the highest level of his undying fighting spirit and his mental fortitude was stronger than most cultivators despite his cultivation base.

    It was also his strong mental fortitude that enabled him to focus his sword intentions into his sword domains.

    Come to think of this, he began to praise his ego by praising his ingenuity at how he had chosen to pick the Divine Heart Recite over the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. (See Chapter 56).

    The Divine Heart Recite is actually a divine profound art and actually consisted of 3 stages; the Absolute Spirits, the Undying Fighting Spirit and the Natural Instinct.

    By now, Ji Yuan has unconsciously actually attained the profound level of the Natural Instinct in which his natural speed and reflexes would increase over the limit.

    He neglected to remember the fact that he had picked the Divine Heart Recite at that time because it was easier to master than the True Sacred Saint Profound Art and that he got screwed up quite a few times by the Undying Fighting Spirit.

    Naturally the benefits of mastering the ultra-instinct part of the Natural Instinct would also endow upon Ji Yuan ten additional rted cultivation arts.

    The 10 cultivation profound arts are:

    Heaven, Earth and Mortal as One.

    Perfect Heartbeat.

    Awakened Seventh Sense.

    Three-in-One Reflex.

    Attunement to the Spiritual Aura.

    Divine Sense Revtion.

    Profound Energies Attunement.

    Immortal Body.

    Supreme Soul Force.

    Spirit Perceptions.

    All these Ji Yuan had unconsciously mastered without realizing it as they were all mental cultivation profound arts and he has always got a good mental fortitude.

    Without realizing it, he has mastered the Immortal Body which allowed him to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm with a much lower risk of failure in his ascension. But that was not all; this cultivation profound art will also allow him to cultivate in a much faster rate and aided his profound recovery.

    Right now, Ji Yuan had not realized that he had a mental breakthrough in his mental profound arts yet because mental profound arts were more subtle than any of the other cultivation profound arts.

    Rather, he had found himself drawn by the canvas imagery at the dome''s top and when he had regained control of his focus, he had suddenly found himself in a surreal space that was surrounded by a circle of ming inertia barrier. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    This shocked him all of a sudden because he had suddenly realized that this scene was all too familiar and it was as though he was now inside the inertia barrier of the canvas imagery now.

    He got another shock when his golden eyes saw a dazzling profound aura began to descend upon him and she was the Great Beyond Goddess!

    As typical of all the canvas imageries, the Great Beyond Goddess was veiled; no one has ever seen her true face and even Ji Yuan had only caught a glimpse of her peerless face.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was now saying to him, "Today is the day of your demise. You cannot stop me for I''ll destroy the Six Divine Realms."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly confused; why did the Great Beyond Goddess wants to destroy the Six Divine Realms? Shouldn''t this be the opposite instead?

    The True Devil God was suddenly heard saying, "I shall not allow you to destroy the Six Divine Realms¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard the words of the True Devil God, he had suddenly realized that he was seeing through the eyes of the True Devil God; in his current state, he could not freely speak or act and he was merely just a spector.

    The Great Beyond Goddess raised her unmistakeable profound voice and weaved 12 magic seals around her before saying, "This battle between us is unavoidable. There can only be one victor among us. But you should be d because you have killed all my tribe thest time. You have killed 11 of the Prime Gods, leaving me alone toment for their fates."

    The True Devil God said, "So you are thinking of killing me so that you can remake the Six Divine Realms and to revive the 11 Prime Gods?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess answered bitterly, "Since you have already known the answer, why did you have to ask?"

    The True Devil God had disyed his demonic sword by shing it into his arms, "So today, there can be only one of us that is alive?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess nodded lightly, "Today I shall vanquish you with the divine remnants of the 11 Prime Gods¡­"

    There was a sudden sh and Ji Yuan had suddenly found himself back to the ground again.

    He blinked his eyes and turned to look at the 33 portals across the golden hallway.

    Slowly he muttered, "We should take the 11th portal."

    Although his voice was soft but it was heard by everyone.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing were startled that this time round Ji Yuan was able to decipher it so quickly.

    Even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Shui Xisi were surprised that Ji Yuan was able to pin-point the portal so quickly.

    They were actually thinking; Is Ji Yuan trying to fool the two God Immortals because he is only trying to dy as much time as possible?

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing stood up and said, "I shall go and take the 11th portal then¡­"

    "I''ll go instead." Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly shed in front of Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, much to her surprise.

    "You¡­" Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was startled as she stared at Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "I am your senior after all. You don''t have to think so hard. I got a suspicious that this Ji Yuan may be wrong this time so I''m taking the risk¡­"

    But all of a sudden, they were suddenly frozen on the spot because Ji Yuan had suddenly shed to the 11th portal and he was saying to everyone, "Let me go inside first. This should be the right portal¡­"

    Without saying a word more, Ji Yuan had stunned everyone by walking into the 11th portal!

    Shui Xisi was stunned, "This is too reckless. What the heck does he thinks he is doing?!"

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were also too stunned to react.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was blinking his eyes weakly and he said with disbelief, "Wait for me here. I shall follow him inside. This may be the wrong portal¡­"

    As he called out for everyone to wait, he had also shed into the 11th portal.

 Chapter 675 The True Devil God Vs. The Great Beyond Goddess

    ?

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang both heaved a soft sigh of relief when Ji Yuan had appeared in Room 32.

    Xiang Li muttered weakly: We didn''t die¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly at Xiang Li''s utterances when he was startled by the sudden appearance of Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to rebuke him immediately, "My young disciple! Luckily you are right this time round or you''ll be dead! This is so reckless of you¡­"

    But barely had he said that, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had all barged into the same room with a sh of light.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was stunned that they had followed him so recklessly when he had told them to wait for him instead, "Why didn''t you wait for me in that room? What if my disciple Ji Yuan is wrong?!"

    Ji Yuan had also turned to rebuke Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress. "You follow me? What if I am wrong?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "We can''t have you dead all by yourself if you are wrong, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan continued to rant at Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Why didn''t you listen to me?"

    But Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing simply replied, "Because I like."

    The Lovely Empress rolled her lovely golden eyes before she chuckled to them, "Because she is concerned about you. That''s why."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began tough weakly, "Hohohohoho¡­"

    He quickly turned to Ji Yuan and said, "I don''t get it. It is supposed to get even harder. How the heck did you get the hint so quickly?"

    However, Ji Yuan did not reply to his question; it was because he had suddenly been mesmerized by the canvas imagery at the top of the dome.

    And also because he was once again looking through the eyes of the True Devil God and the ensuring battle with the Great Beyond Goddess.

    There was something in him that caused Ji Yuan to want to know what had exactly happened in the past and he had be reckless unwillingly.

    In this canvas imagery, the True Devil God had now brandished his demonic sword and he was facing the 12 immortal seals of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The True Devil God said slowly to the Great Beyond Goddess, "It is time for us to put end to all these¡­"

    "Indeed. And I shall return you to the great void." Interrupted the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The True Devil Godughed mightily, "Indeed you can because you are now the only Prime God in the Six Divine Realms and you have inherited their prime profound strength. You are now a True Goddess of the Sixth Divine Realm now and you now wield the power to kill me."

    The Great Beyond Goddess suddenly said mncholy, "So, is this really what you want in the first ce. After I''ve ascended to be a True Goddess then I''ve realized your intentions¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The True Devil Godughed, "Because if I did not die then there will be no end to the entropy of destruction and corruption will eventually reign from the center of the universe to the furthest reaches of the Great Beyond."

    All of a sudden, the True Devil God had shed next to the Great Beyond Goddess and had put his demonic sword into her hand, "Only a True God can kill another. You are now a True God now¡­"

    This had happened in a sh and in that very instant the True Devil God had reversed all his profound strength together with the profound strength of the Great Beyond Goddess upon himself.

    This sudden profound attack was so powerful that it shattered the demonic bones of the True Devil God in that very instant.

    Ji Yuan could feel a shiver down his spine and he seemed to have experienced the shattering of his bones as well!

    The Great Beyond Goddess gasped with shock at the sudden demise of the True Devil God and she was suddenly shivering with great shock¡­

    But the True Devil God simplyughed weakly, "I''ve always love you¡­ you''re the light in my darkness¡­ I am now released from my torments¡­ when I am gone, you can gather the souls of your tribe again. May they experience a world without the True Devil God¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess burst out in tears, "Why me? Why must you force me to kill you?!"

    As the True Devil God slowly dematerialized, he said weakly. "Because¡­ you are different from me¡­ you are the only one¡­ that can change the fates of the Six Divine Realms from the great void. For this¡­ I am willing to give it to you¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess shook her head frantically and she was tearfully trying to catch the star dusts of the dematerialized True Devil God, "No wait! There is something that I''ve not told you yet¡­ I love you as well¡­ why didn''t you wait for me to tell you¡­"

    She had burst into a terrible sorrow and her misty golden eyes were red with her tears; one of her tears had condensed all her great griefs into a special tear drop and that was the Goddess'' Tear.

    This was supposed to be the end when the vision of the canvas imagery had suddenly ended for Ji Yuan.

    Or is it really the end?

    It took Ji Yuan awhile to sober up when he had suddenly witnessed the birth of the Goddess'' Tear.

    He thought to himself: Luckily Xiang Li is not able to remember or see anything pertaining to the Goddess'' Tear¡­

    However unknown to Ji Yuan, Xiang Li was quietly watching the whole event that had taken ce; the reason why she was so quiet was because a great sorrow had suddenly overwhelmed her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly walked to the 1st portal that was on the left side of the golden hallway and he was saying solemnly, "This portal will lead us to the next room."

    Everyone was startled once more; it was because Ji Yuan had once again seemingly resolved the clues in such a quick manner that everyone almost did not even have the time to do anything else.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan blinked his eyes, "Are you sure¡­"

    But even he could finish asking his question, Ji Yuan had already disappeared into the 1st portal.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled weakly at everyone, "So, shall we follow him?"

 Chapter 676 The Great Beyond Goddessâ€™ Last Wish

    ?

    Room 33; this is thest room with 35 portals to be seen in the golden hallway.

    This was also the room that Ji Yuan had found himself into.

    He was a little startled by his own recklessness because this was unlike his cautious self. But somehow, he knew that the portal that he had picked was the correct one.

    This was something that he could not exin.

    And also, he was also curious to know what happened next; it was because the finale battle between the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess were actually in thest room.

    Just as he was walking to the middle of the golden hallway to inspect the dome''s canvas imagery above, Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly burst into the same golden hallway.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan began to curse loudly at Ji Yuan, "My disciple Ji Yuan! You''re too reckless! What if you are wrong?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly almost incoherently, "I''d like to know why I have entered the portal without a thought too¡­"

    His mutterings were soon interrupted by Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu; they had all entered the same golden hallway in a brilliant sh of light.

    Yun Chi had a look of relief in her golden eyes as she disyed a forceful smile, "I know that this little rascal won''t die so easily."

    As she said that, she was patting her belly tofort her daughter; this was a big risk that she was taking in following Ji Yuan.

    But somehow, none of the maidens had wanted to wait to see if the portal to Room 33 was safe or not.

    And so did Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing disyed a mixture of relief and perplexation, "Weird. How did this Ji Yuan manage to decipher the clues so fast?"

    Ji Yuan had heard her and he answered weakly, "They are in their finale battle and I have heard them speaking to each other. So, I have concluded that being the only one that survives may be the hint."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan frowned at the same time, "You can''t hear them talking. It is only a canvas imagery."

    They had answered exactly the same thing.

    Shui Xisi offered a suggestion, "Ji Yuan, maybe you''re having a delusion earlier. Maybe it is time for you to take a short break first or this may be bad for you."

    Bai Qianfeng was concerned as well, "My lord. You should take a rest first. I can be your pillow if you can''t sleep."

    Ji Yuan had a sleeping issue and he could not sleep without using Bai Qianfeng as his pillow.

    The Lovely Empress nodded, "I can sing you a luby to make you sleep faster."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I am perfectly alright and I don''t need any breaks. Why don''t all of you cultivate while I check the dome''s canvas imagery."

    But no one moved and they were all staring at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Why are you all looking at me like this?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "Maybe you can find the next portal in the next instant so it is better that we don''t waste our cultivation strength unnecessary."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu smiled, "That''s right. Why don''t you go ahead first while we watch you?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was stroking his beard and said, "I just don''t get it. It seems that my disciple Ji Yuan is seeing things that we don''t. Why is that so?"

    Shui Xisi offered a helpful suggestion, "Maybe he is really a genius of all the geniuses?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan shifted his golden eyes to stare at her and Shui Xisi quickly backed off behind Bai Qianfeng.

    But not before Shui Xisi muttered out a weak protest first, "He looks meanie."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing said quietly to Ji Yuan, "Why don''t you continue? We will just be looking at the canvas imagery too and won''t be disturbing you."

    Ji Yuan nodded quietly and he saw that in this canvas imagery, there was only the Great Beyond Goddess floating in the heavens.

    In the eyes of everyone else, that was what they could only see.

    But for Ji Yuan, he was seeing something else.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was fluttering in the heavens and he could see that she was bitter and was even trembling as she wept, with her tears sparking like the stars as it dropped from the heavens.

    Ji Yuan was trembling and his heart felt as though it was bleeding just from looking at her grieving tears.

    Somehow, he had wanted to reach out tofort her but he could not.

    The grieving Great Beyond Goddess was still holding the demonic sword of the True Devil God or the Boundless Sovereign Demon God as he was called.

    She was trembling and her hot tears were still weeping down from her misty golden eyes...

    Ji Yuan felt a heart ache from his heart as he watched her helplessness and it was like he was a non-existent person...

    The Great Beyond Goddess screamed tearfully, "So this is all your ns? You have nned for me to be a True Goddess so that you can borrow my hand to kill you? I don''t want your ns. I don''t want you to do anything for me..."

    Finally, she took a sorrowful look at the demonic sword as she said with dripping hot tears that seemed to melt the heavens, "One day, your master will return. Therefore, I shall put you here in this ce, in the center of universe. He is the True Devil God and no matter how long that it would take him, he would surely return one day to im you back."

    Then she said slowly and with great sorrow, "I''ll promise you to safeguard the Six Divine Realms and be a True Goddess¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had raised both her fingers into a mystic gesture as she cried out to the heavens, "O Great Heavens, I shall give you a portion of my soul. This soul is the emotion aspect of my soul. May the remnant of my soul one day united with the soul of the True Devil God and they may one day enjoy a bliss that we are unable to experience¡­"

    As she said that, the strong winds of the heavens began to lift up her veil.

    And for the very first time, Ji Yuan could see a bigger portion of the face of the Great Beyond Goddess with his sharp eyes.

    But he was soon shocked; it was because he had suddenly caught a glimpse of Jiajia from behind the fluttering veil.

    Just as he wanted to strain his golden eyes to see if he was mistaken, the fluttering veil had settled and he could no longer catch any glimpse.

    He had only less than a blink of an eye to check!

    The Great Beyond Goddess muttered sorrowful as she wept aloud, "This may be the end but this is also a new beginning."

    Suddenly a dazed Ji Yuan was returned to reality and he was staggering back.

    Bai Qianfeng saw him staggering back and she quickly caught hold of him, "My lord, are you alright?"

    Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Shui Xisi began to follow after her as they grouped around Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he enjoyed thefort of Bai Qianfeng''s embrace, "Qianfeng, I''m alright¡­"

    Then he said to the approaching Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan, "We should take the 1st portal again. This is the end but it is also a new beginning¡­"

 Chapter 677 The Immortal Ascension Profound Pill

    ?

    Ji Yuan was still feeling a throbbing aching in his heart when he had dered to everyone that they ought to take the 1st portal to exit the Goddess Star Pce.

    He could not exin this grief that he was feeling.

    But he felt that this True Devil God was not as bad as he looked at the very start, for he had sacrificed himself to maintain the order of the universe.

    He began to mutter, "I wonder if it is possible for the True Devil God to revive?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing answered, "It is possible. But when he is revived, we will surely send him into the cycle of reincarnation again."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "How did you identify him in the first ce?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing replied, "Unless he is awakened as the True Devil God and disys his entropy force, this may be a little hard. But even his mortal body would be much tougher than even the demonic body. So that may be a clue to his identity. Also, he cannot be born from any parents. And that is the second clue."

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself, "No parents?"

    Ji Yuan had no parents as well and was an orphan until he was initiated by the White Sword Monarch, his old master to the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    As far as he had remembered, he was a wandering kid in the past.

    His mindless thoughts were interrupted by Old Reverend Beiyuan who was now sighing, "Now it is really farewell to everyone here. Soon we will be returning to the Great Beyond."

    Then heughed as he patted the left shoulders of Ji Yuan a couple of times, "Hohohoho, thanks to you my disciple Ji Yuan. We are now able to escape from this prison¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted weakly, "You know it is painful if you pat me like this¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan quickly switched his patting to the right of Ji Yuan''s shoulder, "Hohohoho¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know that this is equally painful if you pat me like this because you are a God Immortal and that I have almost no resistance to your profound strength."

    Immediately Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu wereughing softly when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    Somehow only Ji Yuan could still make everyone smiles with his casualments even in the most unlikely of situations.

    Even the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing could not resist a smile.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan immediately patted his pot belly with a weakughter, "Hohohoho. I didn''t know that you would be this weak, my disciple Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes and resisted the temptation to rebuke Old Reverend Beiyuan but it was only briefly.

    He grinned back, "You know. I may be wrong about this. So if you can''t escape from this ce, don''t me me for this. I am not following you into that portal."

    But Old Reverend Beiyuan did not mind Ji Yuan''s rebukes andughed jovially, "At most, I juste back to this room again and to look for you again. Hohohohoho."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Then I hope that I''m right because I don''t want to ever see you again."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed, "Not so easy, my disciple Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had flickered his fingers and shot a bolt of profound force into Ji Yuan. This startled Ji Yuan and the rest of the maidens!

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu shouted immediately, "What did you just do to Ji Yuan?!"

    "Why did you attack Ji Yuan for?!" Shui Xisi was startled as well.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng on the other hand, they had quickly regained theirposure and were blinking at Old Reverend Beiyuan; it was because this profound attack was actually harmless.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan exined with a loud chuckle, "Hohohoho. I have just ced my profound tracking in your soul sea. Even though I may be in the Great Beyond, but I would be able to know your location at any time."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li offered a suggestion: Maybe this Old Reverend Beiyuan has a fetish for you, Big Brother¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately rebuked Xiang Li with a helpless reply: Shut up, Xiang Li.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly walked in front of Ji Yuan and she presented to him a shining profound pill.

    Ji Yuan was surprised, "What is this?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing began to curl a smile, "This immortal pill is called the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill. It will enable you to ascend to the Immortal Realm¡­"

    Then she turned to look at Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, "Or you can give it to the others. I can tell that you may not necessarily require this Immortal Ascension Profound Pill. However, note that this is a miracle pill. Even if you are grievous injured, this miracle profound pill will still be able to aid you in your ascension. So, make full use of this."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he took it, "This is a little too valuable for me to take¡­"

    Even though he may have said that but he still took it nevertheless and his golden eyes were beaming with delight; now he could boast to the maidens in his group how good his future cultivation was. This would teach some of them from looking down at him. Hahaha¡­

    Naturally his thoughts were revealed to Fairy Anyang and Xiang Li who were both covering their faces with their hands; this was so typical of Ji Yuan.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled when she saw that Ji Yuan had taken the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill, "Consider this a gift to my disciple-nephew."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he immediately bowed with his hands. "Hahaha¡­ thank you to my martial-aunt as well."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan were both smiling too; it was because they had both epted Ji Yuan as their prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan chuckled aloud all of a sudden, "Hohohoho. There is something that I need to tell you. We have not entirely been truthful to you about this trial."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Bai Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress: ???

    Old Reverend Beiyuan exined with a grin, "We are only scaring you when we have first met. But actually we are here as guardians to protect the celestials from the dangerous deste and divine beasts in this ce. Hohohoho¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he replied weakly, "Then are you joking about killing the immortals too?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan took a look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng before he slowly replied, "You know we can''t lie. So it is true that we have to exterminate any immortals here, especially the ones with the great deste force."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    But Old Reverend Beiyuan simply shrugged his shoulders, "But since they are also my great mistress'' friend, we shall see about it in the future when I have talked to my great mistress again."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng suddenly had a look of relief in their golden eyes¡­

    Then Old Reverend Beiyuan looked at Ji Yuan with a grin that he had imitated from him, "I won''t forget to mention to my great mistress that it is you that have helped us to escape from the Goddess Star Pce. Hohohoho.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "You know what. I have a bad feeling about this if you do tell your great mistress that I have helped you. Maybe you shouldn''t have mentioned me. I don''t want to die from a sudden divine cmity. Hahaha¡­"

    Suddenly Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had interrupted them and she was smiling to Ji Yuan, "Enough of the chat. This will never end. We should go now. Farewell."

    Ji Yuan immediately bowed with his hands to bid them farewell and so did the maidens in his group.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing and Old Reverend Beiyuan began to turn around as they headed toward the 1st portal.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed as he asked Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "So my junior sister, what is the first thing that you want to do when you are back to the Great Beyond?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly turned to say sharply to him, "I hope that you better don''t do anything that would make us return to this ce."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    With that, the two of you had disappeared into the 1st portal.

    As for Ji Yuan and his group, they still had 1 day before the trial could end and this ce was the safest ce for him. So, they had decided to stay put in this ce first.

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin as he said to the maidens, "You know. I have been thinking of this. What if we happen to encounter the guardians in this ce?"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "Ji Yuan, you are really too foul-mouthed. Why don''t you die instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. This story arc is ending soon. There will be a new and exciting major arc for the Upper Area Trial. There will be a major y between the Smiling Divine Maiden and Ji Yuan in that story arc.

 Chapter 678 Ji Yuanâ€™s Outrageous 10 Times Demand

    ?

    Now that both the God Immortals were gone, the air that were around Yun Chi, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had also changed around Ji Yuan.

    This ''air'' referred to their quiet demeanor previouslypared to their natural demeanor naturally, even though Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were not so quiet previously. But they were now looking less tame than earlier.

    Now all the maidens were surrounding Ji Yuan and they were smiling with their own little intentions.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Erm¡­ what is happening? You''re not cultivating? Why are all of you staring at me like this?"

    Yun Chi slowly smiled, "Ji Yuan, I really didn''t know that you are so good in solving the clues here. I know that you are good previously but not this good. And you''ve almost got us all killed."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded as she shyly looked at Ji Yuan, "My lord. Do you think that you ought to deserve a punishment or two?"

    Shui Xisi raised her fingers as she eagerly nodded, "He definitely deserves to be punished."

    The Lovely Empress was actually less devious than any of the 3 maidens and she was looking a little bewilderment, "Punish Ji Yuan? For?"

    She had just wanted to cuddle Ji Yuan when the other 3 maidens had suddenly surrounded Ji Yuan; she had thought that they had wanted to do the same as her.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Hahaha¡­ what sort of a punishment then?"

    Xiang Li offered a suggestion in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big Brother, maybe they want you to bang them for 1 day and 1 night in this ce.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Yun Chi continued to smile as she took the initiative, "It is only a small matter and not a punishment. Ji Yuan, why don''t you show us your Golden Natal Divine Pearl that your new master has bestowed upon you? We just wanna a look at your immortal profound treasure."

    Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess was also smiling, "It is only a small request. Surely you are not that petty?"

    Shui Xisi was more direct as she smiled alluringly, "Ji Yuan,e and let us appreciate your Golden Natal Divine Pearl. I just want to take a look at this great immortal treasure."

    The Lovely Empress had suddenly realized what their intentions were.

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were looking for a breakthrough and nothing beat having a true immortal profound treasure to study than the canvas imageries from the dome.

    As for Shui Xisi, she is a cultivation genius like her sister Jiajia and she was curious to see if she could gain any lucky urrence from the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    Ji Yuan was looking quite prideful that he had got an immortal treasure that even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were interested in and he was grinning with absolute delight.

    So, he shamelessly replied. "You know that this is my lucky urrence and not yours. And it is a taboo in the cultivation world to steal another person''s lucky urrence. What if my cultivation destiny is affected by showing you my Golden Natal Divine Pearl? What if you were to attempt to steal it away from me?"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi kicked Ji Yuan hard and said angrily, "You are too shameless. What do you want in order to show us your immortal profound treasure?"

    But Ji Yuanughed instead as he firmly had the advantage this time round, "Surely you know what I want."

    He began to stare at the bosoms of Shui Xisi before looking at peerless figures of Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi. "I am actually easily satisfied¡­"

    Xiang Li began to giggle immediately in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: I told you that Big Brother wants to bang them. I know him best of all.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had already grabbed Shui Xisi''s waist and he was groping her butt. At the same time, he had also pulled Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng into his tight embrace. "Hahaha¡­ what do you think that I want?"

    Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress stomped her foot as she watched them and she was upset: In what way is she inferior to the other maidens? Why didn''t Ji Yuan want her? It isn''t even easy to bed her puppet and this is the real her.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had wanted to grab the Lovely Empress as well and he had actually greatly desired her but she was looking a little confused and he did not want to scare her off. And he was also a little worried that she may charge him instead.

    Yun Chi was rolling her golden eyes at the other maidens as though she was saying: How dare Ji Yuan makes a demand in front of the Death God Mingwang¡­

    Ji Yuan had already raised his ten fingers with a grin, "This is the number of times that I want all of you to settle payment with."

    Shui Xisi grasped with shock, "Ten times¡­"

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Even the Lovely Empress was shocked at the outrageous demands that Ji Yuan had wanted.

    Shui Xisi managed to suppress her anger as she said bitterly, "Is this the way that you treat your future consorts?"

    Bai Qianfeng was nodding as well, "That''s right!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan pretended to disy an innocent look as he grinned, "Did I ever say that I''ll take all of you as my consorts in the future?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Shui Xisi was speechless, "Ji Yuan, you¡­"

    But Ji Yuanughed jovially as he began to grope them by stroking their bodies, "Hahaha. So, what do you think of my condition?"

    Ji Yuan''s ego +100 points.

    Fairy Anyang muttered weakly in the soul sea: I don''t think that they would agree¡­

    Ji Yuan had heard Fairy Anyang and he gently rebuked her: My dear Anyang. This, you''re wrong. Hahaha. They would definitely agree to my condition."

    Fairy Anyang asked curiously: Why so?

    Ji Yuanughed: Because I have already banged them in the past. So, they got nothing to lose.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling: That''s right!

    Yun Chi was the first to speak as she caught hold of Ji Yuan''s fingers that were sliding into her robe and he was touching her panties, "Show us first and then we will agree to your term and condition."

    When Bai Qianfeng had heard Yun Chi, she had also returned a flushed nod.

    Shui Xisi was still infuriated by Ji Yuan''s demand and she was thinking Ji Yuan was not going to spare her because he had now known that she was the one that had humiliated him in the past.

    Ji Yuan grinned with great delight, "High level immortals and celestials should not lie or this will be bad for your soul sea. This is also bad for your future cultivation. After I''ve shown you my Golden Natal Divine Pearl, remember to allow me to im my reward anytime whenever I am pleased. Haha..."

    Shui Xisi said impatiently and her ears were burning intensely, "Enough already of your talks. Show it to us."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were nodding shyly as well, even though they appeared to be a little flushed because of Ji Yuan''s ungraceful hands around them.

    Ji Yuan was naturally pleased that he had scored a major victory against them and his manly pride began to rise to new heights.

    Ji Yuan''s ego +200 points.

    Heughed as he let go of the maidens to muster his profound cultivation strength to surface the Golden Natal Divine Pearl from his soul sea to the outside.

    But despite his best efforts to do so, he had suddenly realized that he could not muster enough profound strength to do so and that it would need an immortal profound strength to do instead.

    Then he was forced to look up under the watchful looks of Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi as he said weakly. "You know. I bet that Old Reverend Beiyuan knows that I would definitely show off my Golden Natal Divine Pearl to all of you and he had put a profound seal on it. But I tell you, once I have enough profound strength as an immortal, I may have the chance to show it to you¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan''s ego -1000 points.

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were now staring angrily at Ji Yuan¡­

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes before she grinned, "Sisters. I suggest we''ll let him have a taste of our most powerful profound attacks 10 times."

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "This is my intention as well."

    Even the usual cool demeanor Bai Qianfeng was saying, "My pleasure."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly put a feeble protest, "You know what. I was actually teasing all of you just now. You are all my future consorts for sure¡­."

    Shui Xisi was the first to attack Ji Yuan as she interrupted him with her profound attack, "Ji Yuan, you are going to be dead soon!"

    At this moment, she could not decide if she wanted Ji Yuan to bang her 10 times instead of wanting to kill him 10 times instead.

    Bai Qianfeng was actually looking a little disappointed that Ji Yuan could not bang her...

    Yun Chi on the other hand was smiling as she joined Shui Xisi, with her daughter in her belly muttering with great bewilderment: Mama, why are you beating papa up?

    She whispered back to her daughter: Your papa is someone that enjoys a beating or he won''t feelfortable.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu who had been watching by the side, was now giggling nonstop; she was absolute delighted that Ji Yuan did not need have to bang any of the maidens 10 times now.

    But she pretended to giggle softly, "Even though he deserves this. But be gentle on Ji Yuan and don''t kill him..."

    Author Note:

    1. This is a light-hearted chapter and they were all teasing each other.

 Chapter 679 Ji Yuans Most Awesome Trial Reward

    ?

    Room 33.

    1 Day had quickly passed and it was almost time for the trial to end.

    The fact that both the Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing did not return to the Goddess Star Pce, would only mean that they have already exited this trial and have returned to the Great Beyond.

    For Ji Yuan and his group, they were lucky that they did not encounter any of the roaming guardians even though they had taken the contingencies by meditating next to the exit portal or the 1st portal.

    JI Yuan however was still sore from the beatings that he had received from Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi.

    They had shown him almost no mercy because he could hear them remarking to him, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you won''t die so easily. We all know what your golden body is made of."

    Ji Yuan had protested, "But my profound defense is so weak and you know that¡­"

    Shui Xisiughed it off by adding for him, "But I know that you have a much stronger willpower than any of the cultivators. You are not afraid of pain¡­"

    This resulted in Ji Yuan having a red-faced countenance and he was covered with the injuries of his beatings as he meditated next to the maidens.

    He ended muttering nonstop for hours as though he was chanting, "I have internal injuries. Internal injuries are not so easily to be healed¡­ even for a great saint¡­"

    Instead of getting what he had wanted from the 3 maidens, he ended up getting beaten up by them.

    Only the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was there tofort him but she was giggling to him, "I didn''t want to say this to you but you definitely deserve their beatings."

    Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang were unusual quiet as they pretended to sleep when Ji Yuan had called upon them to materialize and to help him to plead to Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi.

    Ji Yuan had no time to goad over his sustained injuries when he was disturbed by a profound disturbance and saw that they were now shifting through the spatial space.

    He was delighted as he exined loudly to the 4 maidens, "Haha¡­ we havepleted the trial now. We are going to im our rewards now¡­"

    iming any types of rewards were exciting to Ji Yuan and he immediately forgot any pains that he was experiencing.

    He shouted excitedly as he slowly faded away into the spatial space, "Sisi, Qianfeng, Yun Chi, Maiden Jiangsu. See youter. Hahaha¡­ am I first?"

    He quickly found himself in a dark spatial space.

    There was a solemn old voice from beyond the spatial space that said to him, "You havepleted this trial by staying in this ce for 7 days. ording to your difficulty ranking, I shall bestow upon you a fitting reward¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted the solemn old voice as he had identified it as the Trial Spirit, "Am I ranked number 1? The reward forpleting this trial must truly be astonishing."

    The Trial Spirit answered, "Indeed. There are many astonishing rewards for this trial. However, you are not ranked number 1 in the ranks."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ I wonder who can possibly rank better than me?"

    He has suddenly remembered that Brother Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing are in the trials as well; maybe they have ranked better than him.

    The Trial Spirit answered him, "There are many that have ranked higher than you. You are ranked at the bottom."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he began to protest loudly, "Is this a joke? Cos I am not falling for it. I would be among thest? I have a ster performance in this trial, you know¡­"

    But the Trial Spirit interrupted him solemnly, "You are supposed to take the trial in this ce by suppressing your profound animus. This tested your continuous cultivation strength at how long you can suppress your profound animus and will be extremely draining to your profound strength. But you did not and freely reveal your profound animus in the Goddess Star Pce¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly to himself; he has almost forgotten that the trial automatically forces them to reveal their cultivation aura to its fullest in this ce and they are like beacons to all the powerful profound monsters here. Therefore, they have to use their profound strength to suppress their cultivation aura instead.

    The Trial Spirit added further, "And you have to stay in a ce like the Goddess Star Pce where there are no profound monsters to harass you¡­"

    "I''ve fought with the guardians." Ji Yuan insisted as he interrupted.

    The Trial Spirit seemed to frown, "Did you really?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ of course I did but my contribution is not as great as the others¡­"

    The Trial Spirit ignored Ji Yuan and said solemnly, "Also, you have the protection of the two God Immortals all the time in this ce. Each time you are under their protections and each time that they have helped you, your secret contributions in this ce will be deducted."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Deducted? Surely you can''t do that to me. This is so unfair to me. I didn''t want to mess with the two God Immortals, you know."

    Xiang Li and Anyang, where are the two of you? Come speak a minute of fairness for me here¡­

    No reply.

    The Trial Spirit hummed coldly, "You don''t even have enough contributions for me to deduct further anyway. Now take your reward and begone from this ce!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly but when ites to rewards again, he was excited. "I wonder what is my reward?"

    Five huge silver profound pills began to float in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed excitedly when he saw the rewards, "These profound pills are so big and it seems to be awesome. Hahaha. This is indeed a S+ Trial in the upper area¡­"

    "These profound pills are Iron Tendons profound pills. Don''t tell me you didn''t recognize them? Or you have never studied your cultivation alchemy?" The Trial Spirit had interrupted Ji Yuan by informing him.

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he protested immediately, "Iron Tendons are only 3th cultivation realm profound pills for regaining profound strength. This reward is too cheap! I can easily buy Iron Tendons profound pills outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "These are extraordinary 4th cultivation realm Iron Tendons profound pills. They are bigger and more effective than the normal ones." The Trial Spirit frowned.

    Ji Yuan began to protest aloud, "3rd or 4th cultivation realm profound pills are still low-level cultivation profound pills. And these are still Iron Tendons! They have no other uses other than regaining profound strength, Moreover, they are also bad to our cultivation core when we consume them too much¡­."

    "You talk too much." The Trial Spirit was now frowning. "You are behaving like an amateur cultivator than a seasoned cultivator, great saint. You ought to ept your lucky urrence and begone from this ce."

    The Trial Spirit was actually right.

    In the Celestial Realm, all the cultivators inly epted their lucky urrence. Only an inexperienced cultivator would argue with fate over their lucky urrence for the first time. But eventually, even an inexperienced cultivator would learn that it is futile to argue with their fates and instead, they would put in more hard work for their future cultivation.

    But now Ji Yuan was insisting that he was right.

    And so, the Trial Spirit had suddenly caused the 5 Iron Tendons Profound Pills in Ji Yuan''s hands to vanish and he had dismissed Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was shocked when he got dismissed just like this.

    And he ended up getting no rewards for his efforts in this trial¡­

    This was the ''most awesome reward'' that he had ever received for putting in his best efforts...

    Author Note

    1. This concludes the first trial in the Upper Trial Area of the Empyrean Warrrior Labyrinth.

 Chapter 680 â€œNo One Believes Me Again!â€

    ?

    Ji Yuan had exited the trial now and he saw that there were many familiar faces in the vicinity.

    He looked a little sheepish for being robbed of his trial reward by a Trial Spirit but at the same time he was happy to see some of his old friends again.

    Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng had all exited the trial as well and they were looking not so delightful.

    Ji Yuan took one look at them and he knew that their trial rewards must also be quite pathetic.

    Ling Feiyue were delighted to see Ji Yuan but she was also unhappily saying, "Why didn''t you burn your golden talisman, Ji Yuan? Do you know that you are actually taking a risk in there?"

    Little Princess, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Feng Minyue and Zhi Jiugong had all surrounded Ji Yuan and were checking his injuries while showing him their affections. "Ji Yuan. What has happened to you? Are you hurt? Look at your injuries¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch was frowning some distance away and he was standing with Zhan Wuji, Lu Qingyun, Fan Yuqing, Ye Jing, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang, Xiao Muhan, Leng Qiuyue and many others.

    He muttered, "My two daughters have forgotten about their old father in a blink of an eye¡­"

    There were also many other cultivators as the trial had just ended; some had endured till to the veryst. Some had perished inside while some others had given up and had used their golden talisman.

    For those that had left early, this was the ce that they were camping as they waited for the cultivators that were taking the trial.

    Ling Feiyue was gasping with shock when she saw Ji Yuan''s injuries, "Ji Yuan, are you really alright? Do you need any profound pills?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he was surrounded by so many maidens, "It is nothing really. I was in a battle with three ferocious monsters inside. But I was lucky enough to escape from them. Hahaha¡­"

    The maidens quickly gasped with shock as they all showered Ji Yuan with all their concerns and affections, "These 3 ferocious monsters deserve to have a bad end for hurting you!"

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Even the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu could not help but disyed an awkward look at Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi.

    She shrugged her shoulders as she tried to interrupted the gatherings that were around Ji Yuan, "Sisters. Sister Jiugong, Sister Lixue. I am back alive¡­"

    "Later, Sister Jiangsu." The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue had interrupted her. "You look alright but on the other hand, look at poor Ji Yuan. He is so badly hurt. He must have risked himself to save you."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu: ¡­

    She muttered weakly, "He isn''t honest at all. How can he be a great saint in the first ce?"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly as he said to the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng. "I bet that he must be a liar in his past life as well."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "He must be a most unromantic cultivator in his past life and so is in this life as well!"

    Even Bai Qianfeng could not help but took a dig at Ji Yuan as she whispered to them, "I am betting that in his past life, he must have killed himself during his divine cmity for being a liar."

    The 3 maidens quickly agreed that Ji Yuan must have told a big lie just before he had died in his previous life and began to curse him softly for describing them as ''3 ferocious monsters''.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu smiled weakly to the other 3 maidens, "I am more surprised that his golden skeleton did not crack under your intense beatings."

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng began to shift a little ufortable; it was because they had delivered a little more profound power on Ji Yuan than necessary as they were no longer restricted inside the trial earlier.

    But thankfully, Ji Yuan did not seem to be too badly injured.

    Shui Xisi offered a suggestion, "Ji Yuan is just a male chauvinist. I am betting that he is just suppressing his pains due to his manly pride."

    Yun Chi nodded before she walked over to Ji Yuan with a curved smile, "Ji Yuan. Why don''t you share with everyone on the rewards that you have got inside the trial? I am sure that you must have got something really good?"

    After all, Ji Yuan had helped the 2 God Immortals to escape from the Goddess Star Pce and he was even grinning with great pride when it was his turn to im his trial reward.

    When Yun Chi had said that, all the other maidens including Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Bai Qianfeng had all crowded around Ji Yuan and were also asking him. "Ji Yuan, what did you got for this trial?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes before he rubbed his chin, "Erm, if I tell you that I''ve got nothing for my trial reward, would you believe me?"

    Immediately all the maidens disyed looks of great disbelief and were muttering, "Ji Yuan, you must be teasing us. This is not possible. You havepleted the trial¡­"

    Even Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had looks of disbelief as they stared at Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "How can he get nothing in the trial? Do you all know that he has got 2 immortal profound treasures inside the trial too. They are Golden Natal Divine Pearl and the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The other maidens were startled.

    "2 immortal profound treasures?"

    "Ji Yuan, why didn''t you tell us?"

    "Can you show us?"

    "We just want to take a look."

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish as he tried to calm the maidens down, "Hahaha¡­ at this moment, I can''t really show you the Golden Natal Divine Pearl yet¡­"

    "Selfish!"

    "Ji Yuan just does not want to show it to us¡­"

    "He is so selfish¡­"

    "This is his lucky urrence. Maybe we shouldn''t impose our wills on him?" Feng Minyue who was more sensible than the rest had actually tried to argue with the other maidens.

    And her only supporter was Yang Mi.

    Little Princes looked a little hurt as she said mesmerizingly, "Hmph! Even our rtionship cannot withstand your selfishness!"

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "Maybe he is just being his cautious self again and he is afraid that we may betray his trust on him. Come to think of this, I still can''t forgive him for attacking me inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!"

    She had actually forgiven Ji Yuan for attacking her but at this moment, she was a little upset with him so she was settling old scores again.

    Ji Yuan quickly said to pacify all the maidens, "However I can show you my Immortal Ascension Profound Pill. This wondrous immortal profound pill is a miracle pill that can allow anyone to ascend to the Immortal Divine Realm¡­"

    When he had said that, the maidens were all gasping with shock.

    Ling Feiyue hastily interrupted, "An immortal profound pill that really allows you to ascend to the Immortal Realm?! There is such a good thing in this world?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Yea. Unfortunately, there is only one¡­"

    All of a sudden Yun Chi had interrupted him as she had thought of something, "Ji Yuan, this immortal Ascension Profound Pill may still be useful. We can actually make full use of this."

    Ji Yuanughed and he said without understanding her intentions, "You mean we can use it to save my good friend Xiao Muhan over there? But he is just an initial saint Hahaha. He needs to be at least a great saint in order to use it. You have just reminded me to try to save his depraved soul¡­"

    "No," Yun Chi interrupted Ji Yuan as she said quietly.

    With a soft sigh, she lowered her voice to say. "The Great Demon God has sealed the way to the Immortal Realm. This Immortal Ascension Profound Pill may just be the only thing that can get the Pangu Immortals to know the devious scheme of the Great Demon God and his whereabouts."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes before he looked slowly at the maidens, "You may be right¡­"

    But all of a sudden, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were all answering at the same time. "Don''t look at me. I''m not going to the Immortal Realm. I''ve just given up my chance of ascension¡­"

    When the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong had left Bliss City, they had also given up the chance to use a unique immortal formation that was there to ascend to the Immortal Realm together.

    And the reason why they had given up on ascending to the Immortal Realm was because of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan began to turn to look at the faraway White Sword Monarch before he started tough while looking at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Yang Mi, "Didn''t my old man says he has once screwed up his chance of a proper ascension to the Immortal Realm because he has overextended his stay in the Celestial Realm?"

    Yang Mi was startled as she said to Ji Yuan, "Are you thinking of sending my father to run an errant for you?"

    The White Sword Monarch had caught Ji Yuan''s look on him and he was shouting, "What the heck are the whole lot of you talking there all by yourselves? Can''t you see that we have so many of us here waiting for you?"

    Fan Yuqing the Devil Goddess who was standing by the White Sword Monarch''s side, was smiling alluringly. "s, it seems that my Sister Sisi is enjoying herpany over there than with her sister here. Even my closest sister Feng Minyue is also noting my way. This Ji Yuan is really too lucky."

    1. In the next story arc, JY is going to be extremely rich for once. (or is it?)

 Chapter 681 Gold Tailsmans Are The Real Deal

    ?

    Zhan Wuji really did not dare to travel with his patriarch the White Sword Monarch so he had departed with the other cultivators.

    As for the White Sword Monarch, he had decided to stick with Ji Yuan and his two daughters, Chu Lixue and Yang Mi.

    Lu Qingyun, Leng Qiuyue, Ye Jing and Fan Yuqing bade farewell to Ji Yuan and his group as they had decided to explore elsewhere in the other sections of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    But not before Fan Yuqing had teased Shui Xisi, "Heehee, remember to have some ''fun''."

    Fun in the eyes of Fan Yuqing actually had another meaning because she used to be the Devil Goddess that had terrorized everyone.

    Shui Xisi was not dumb as she returned a meaningful smile, "I will."

    Fan Yuqing and Ye Jing had also bade farewell to Feng Minyue.

    Fan Yuqing quietly said and there was a spark of sorrow in her golden eyes, "This Ji Yuan is really too lucky to have captured my best friend to his side¡­"

    The golden eyes of Feng Minyue were shimmering as she gave Fan Yuqing a tight embrace; the two of them had been close sisters for centuries and had even taken turn to masquerade as the Devil Goddess to confuse their enemies.

    They had many moments of fun and epic stories together (See the Fluffy Cultivation and The Good For Nothing Cultivator).

    Fan Yuqing muttered to Feng Minyue, "I still remember the good old times when Xuan Danfeng and you are around¡­"

    Feng Minyue smiled, "Don''t forget that you got the other sisters now too. Qian Jingjing, Tang Xuefeng and Yue Lingxi are all waiting outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for you."

    Fan Yuqing hummed softly, "Tang Xuefeng is a crybaby and the othersck your guts¡­"

    Ye Jing interrupted with a smile as she looked at Lu Qingyun, "Well, you have me now. Don''t you?"

    Fan Yuqing rolled her golden eyes, "I guess that I will be struck with my old arch enemy for a long, long time¡­"

    Leng Qiuyue was in awe of both Fan Yuqing and Ye Jing as she quietly stood next to Lu Qingyun but she was looking blissful.

    Finally, Fan Yuqing and her group had departed, leaving Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue to stay behind with Ji Yuan.

    Only the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan were now left with Ji Yuan and his group.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan, "You are not leaving for other ces?"

    Mo Beiughed jovially as he stroked his beautiful beard, "Junior Ji Yuan. Are you hoping that I will leave? Fat hope!"

    Xiao Muhan was also smiling while looking at Yun Chi, "There is safety in numbers. This ce is getting more and more dangerous. I don''t want to die before I can get to reach any of the trials in the upper area."

    The trials were not the only ces that have dangers. Traversing the vast terrains of the upper areas of the Empyreans Warrior Labyrinth also had its dangers too."

    Ji Yuan took a look at Xiao Muhan beforeughing out loud, "My friend Xiao Muhan. You are now a living furnace. I don''t feel safe with you around my maidens."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan took another look at Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan before he rubbed his chin, "Hmm, let me guess. You have run out of golden talismans now?"

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan were bothughing weakly as they said almost the same time, "Why are you so smart? Hahahahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan promptly shed a golden talisman as he chuckled aloud, "Luckily, I have some spare golden talismans. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan and Mo Bei were grinning as they looked at the golden talisman that were in Ji Yuan''s fingers.

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "You have only one talisman to spare?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he had suddenly turned and ced the golden talisman into Qin Shuang''s hands, "Maiden Qin Shuang, this is for you. After all, we have known each other for some time already."

    Qin Shuang was startled, "Young Master Ji Yuan, this is too valuable. I can''t ept this¡­"

    But Ji Yuan insisted as he waved for her to keep it, "This is a spare. And don''t call me Young Master. Just call me Ji Yuan. Hahaha¡­"

    Qin Shuang sighed softly before bowing with both her hands, "Thank you¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was speechless, "Hey Brother Ji Yuan. Aren''t we the best of friends? We have known each other for a long time¡­ where is my golden talisman?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Mo Bei was also frowning, "Do you still remember that my grand-niece Xue Qianxue is your consort? In short, we are rtives."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at them and pretended to frown, "Do you know that golden talismans are worth more than any cultivation profound treasures in this ce? With the golden talismans, you will be able to have a grab at the lucky urrence in this ce. If I give you my golden talismans, then I won''t have enough golden talismans toplete the trials in this ce¡­"

    Then he turned to look at the maidens behind his back, "I still remember that no one has everpleted the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but I have the intention of being the first to do so. Therefore, I will need as many golden talismans as possible."

    Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was only joking with them; he did not want anyone to die in this trial, especially the friends that he had known. But he just wanted to be a badass as long as possible.

    He pretended to ignore them as he turned with a grin to the White Sword Monarch, "Old man¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned as he hit Ji Yuan on his head, "Little Rascal. You dare to call your old master an old man. Where are your manners?"

    Ji Yuan protested almost immediately, "Hahaha, I''ve always called you my old man. Why are your mood so foul today?"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned as he stared at Ji Yuan, "I''m always foul in my moods. Is this the first day that you have known me?"

    He was actually looking at Ji Yuan''s injuries and was saying bitterly, "You can stillugh in your condition? If it is not because of my fierce trainings that I have made you to do, you would be dead by now!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Yes, yes. For sure. Hahaha¡­"

    He knew that this was his old man''s way of showing his concerns for him.

    "Old man, look at what this is first."

    Ji Yuan had taken out the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill and had gently put it into the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch''s hands.

    The White Sword Monarch was startled as he could feel that this was a miracle profound pill.

    Or rather this was actually an immortal miracle profound pill!

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said, "Old man. This is the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill and it will ensure a smooth ascension to the Immortal Realm."

    The White Sword Monarch began to frown unhappily and he had made the gesture of returning the profound pill to Ji Yuan, "This is too valuable and is your trial reward. I can''t take your lucky urrence away¡­"

    "No, my old man." Ji Yuan had interrupted him and pushed back the profound pill back to the White Sword Monarch.

    He said firmly, "I know that you have expended much of your cultivation strength to overstay in the Celestial Realm because all these years, you have been trying to look for your daughter. Although you may be formidable in the Celestial Realm but I doubt that you have any spiritual energies left in your inner spiritual sea to make it through your ascension. I know that you don''t care about your life and death but I want you to live a little longer."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Yang Mi had also surrounded the White Sword Monarch; they were tugging his sleeves and were nodding to him.

    The White Sword Monarch muttered awkwardly as he looked at Ji Yuan and the other maidens with him, "Frankly speaking, I''ve lived long enough and I don''t mind being turned into a valuable heaven relic when my ascension fails. Why don''t you give it to a worthy maiden among your future consorts instead?"

    But Ji Yuan began tough heartily and the other maidens in his group were alsoughing jovially along with him.

    They were all saying at the same time in unison, "We are still young and so we don''t need it."

    The White Sword Monarch pretended to be angry, "What? Are you saying that I am an old fellow here?! Where are your manners?"

    Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng returned a jeer, "We are immortals. Don''t include us into your squabbles!"

    In Ji Yuan''s soul sea, Xiang Li was dreamingly thinking of the canvas imageries that she had seen in the earlier trial.

    "Isn''t that my Big Brother''s ex-girlfriend? No, my Big Brother''s girlfriend now. Why is she there? And isn''t that my Big Brother in the canvas imageries too? Why is he wearing a hideous iron mask to cover his handsome face?"

    She had tried to tell Ji Yuan but no words could be formed when she had tried to mention this to her Big Brother.

    Author Note:

    1. The next major story arc will be really dangerous and exciting. Not kidding!

 Chapter 682 Do We Have Enough Golden Talismans?

    ?

    Eventually Ji Yuan had turned his attention to his two acquaintances andughed as he told Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan, "I can spare you 1 golden talisman each¡­"

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan were suddenly looking quite relieved.

    This ce was really too dangerous without a golden talisman and they did not expect that a golden talisman would be needed almost immediately inside the earlier trial.

    Without a golden talisman, it was quite impossible for them to even retreat to the beginning of the final trial where it was much safer.

    Mo Bei muttered weakly, "Luckily you got some spare golden talismans for us¡­"

    All of a sudden Xiao Muhan was staring at Ji Yuan, "How did you get your spare golden talisman? I don''t remember that you got so many spare golden talismans when we had parted thest time."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Indeed, I don''t have any spare golden talismans."

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Mo Bei began to curse loudly, "Junior Ji Yuan, how dare you fool your senior¡­"

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan panicky shouted as he raised his hand to point at the group that was behind him, "Even though I may not have enough golden talismans but I do know someone that has some spares."

    The short old man aka the White Sword Monarch that was behind Ji Yuan began tough aloud, "Little Rascal. So that is what you are actually nning for giving me your Immortal Ascension Profound Pill. Fine. I shall give you my spare golden talismans. I have 5 originally and had used up one earlier. Therefore, I still have 4 more golden talismans. I can definitely spare you 2 golden talismans¡­"

    Then he turned to look at the Smiling Divine Maiden and Yang Mi, "However, I can''t give you more than 2. I am going to give myst 2 golden talismans to my two daughters. Or they would be vulnerable in this ce."

    Then he looked at the maidens in Ji Yuan''s group, "Little Rascal, you are a good brother to your friends but you have too many maidens in your group that do not have a spare golden talisman now."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue quickly stepped in as she smiled weakly, "Old Father, no need¡­ you ought to save one golden talisman for yourself or else it would not be good for you¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch immediately flew into a big rage, "You are my precious daughter. How dare you reject my fatherly love¡­"

    "This isn''t what she means." Yun Chi chuckled softly as she quickly stepped in.

    The White Sword Monarch: ???

    "In fact," Yun Chi rolled her peerless look at Ji Yuan with a curled smile. "Ji Yuan is talking to me instead."

    Ji Yuan began tough loudly, "My Yun Chi is so smart."

    Yun Chi smiled, "Chu Lixue is my core disciple. Naturally I won''t allow her toe to any harm. Naturally the others are my sisters as well so I won''t allow them toe to harm either."

    The White Sword Monarch asked curiously, "But do you have enough golden talismans?"

    Yun Chi smiled mysteriously as she took out a stack of 300 golden talismans to disy to everyone, "Not many. Just a couple of hundreds of golden talismans."

    When she had shown everyone the stack of golden talismans, everyone except for the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were shocked¡­

    The jaws that were on the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan had also dropped¡­

    This included Ji Yuan as well; he knew that Yun Chi had many golden talismans but he did not know that she actually had so many golden talismans that she had looted from the celestial cultivators in Bliss City!

    The White Sword Monarch was now stammering, "This is, this is¡­"

    Previously he had not known that Yun Chi was the Death God Mingwang and he had challenged the Death God Mingwang to a duel. He was quite sure at that time that he would be able to exhaust the Death God Mingwang by using his five golden talismans repeatedly.

    With 300 golden talismans to use in the wilderness of the final trial, Yun Chi is virtually unkible. Unless of course, she is being restricted to use the golden talisman in a trial.

    Yun Chi lit a slow smile, "I can actually give everyone 3 golden talismans each. This should be enough for now. But if you still need more, I can still spare you."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan was immediately smiling, "Maiden Yun Chi is the best. I shall follow you whenever you are going. I feel safe around you. Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a big frown, "What are you? A dog? Go away! She has a lover already¡­ how dare you try to green me in front of me¡­"

    Xiao Muhan protested immediately, "I am just Yun Chi''s admirer¡­"

    Mo Bei had a look of bewilderment as he stared at Yun Chi, "How did you manage to get so many golden talismans?"

    Even Qin Shuang had a look of puzzlement in her golden eyes.

    It was because Xiao Muhan, Mo Bei and Qin Shuang did not know that Yun Chi was actually the Death God Mingwang and they also did not know what had happened in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind where Bliss City was located.

    When Xiao Muhan saw the looks that were on Mo Bei and Qin Shuang, he too had suddenly realized why they were looking so startled; it was because every cultivator in the final trial was only given 1 golden talisman to have a shot at their lucky urrence.

    Even the White Sword Monarch that they had realized to be Ji Yuan''s old master after they had chatted, had only 5 golden talismans.

    And now Yun Chi was proposing that she was willing to give everyone 3 golden talismans so that they could use it to escape from their enemies.

    All the celestial cultivators that can reach the final trial are those that have fierce pride and they are all veterans with many profound treasures; and it was a do the trials or die mentality when they are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    So, none of them would be willing to give up their precious golden talismans unless they were being forced to by the others. Take for example, Xiao Muhan was forced to give Xi Jingping his golden talisman because he had be her living furnace.

    Even Ji Yuan was eagerly taking every trial that he was encountering.

    Yun Chi smiled coolly, "If I tell you that they willingly give me their golden talismans, would you believe me?"

    Xiao Muhan gasped with shock, "Maiden Yun Chi, you are sacrificing your body in exchange for the golden talismans? Hundreds of times¡­"

    Yun Chi, Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately kicked Xiao Muhan away and he was cursing loudly, "Is there nothing but lust inside your puny head? Go and die!"

    He quickly turned to smile at Yun Chi, "My dear Yun Chi. Please don''t mind him at all. May I have a couple of golden talismans from you?"

    Yun Chi chuckled with great loveliness before she ceased her smiles to say, "Everyone except for you will get 3 golden talismans from me."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Why?"

    Yun Chi still remembered how Ji Yuan had called her a ferocious beast earlier so she hummed coldly, "Because I like."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yun Chi, aren''t we close? Look, I am the papa of our daughter too¡­"

    All the others were quite dumbfounded; it was supposed to be Ji Yuan handing over the golden talismans but now it had suddenly be Ji Yuan trying to beg for a couple of golden talismans from Yun Chi.

    Author Note:

    1. Next major arc is starting soon;)

 Chapter 683 Prelude To The 2nd Upper Final Trial (1)

    ?

    The upper area of the final trial was indeed dangerous.

    From the towering mountains, a gigantic deste beast with 4 legs and 2 arms that were shaped like sharpened wings were slowly roaming the towering mountains in search of a prey.

    This was an epic 8th rank deste monster and it was also a formidable looking epic deste monster.

    Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Yang Min were trying to conceal themselves at a rocky ledge to the right.

    As for the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan, they were concealing on the left.

    They were all waiting for this epic deste monster to walk past and they did not want to fight against such a formidable epic deste monster.

    It was because this was an epic ss deste monster and its fighting strength could top even most 9th rank deste profound beasts!

    This was a king of the 8th rank deste beasts that they were seeing it and they did not dare to even train their divine sense on it lest it would betray their hiding ces.

    When the gigantic epic deste beast was finally gone, Xiao Muhan began tough jovially. "Haha. It is afraid of us."

    When Ji Yuan had heard hisugher, he rolled his golden eyes as he muttered a curse to Yun Chi, "He is trying to impress you and is trying to green me."

    But Yun Chi simply smiled and there was a soft flush on her cheeks, "You should know my heart. So how are your injuries?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he patted his chest, "I am fine now."

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the speed of recovery was actually 20 times in the final trial than in the Celestial Realm. This was a spark contrast when Ji Yuan had first stepped into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when the high level cultivators had sluggish recovery to prevent them from fighting the lower level golden celestials.

    With Ji Yuan''s recovery speed, it only took him just 2 days to be a fighter again.

    Shui Xisi was giggling, "He is like a tough nut that can''t be cracked."

    Bai Qianfeng was also smiling at Shui Xisi''s remarks.

    Actually Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi did not hit Ji Yuan on his vital parts so there was almost no chance that he would get any internal injuries.

    But Ji Yuan liked to exaggerate his injuries so he could win some sympathies from the maidens but none of them including the Lovely Empress were falling for his tricks.

    Ji Yuan smiled to Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng before he asked curiously, "Did you manage to gain any insights while inside the Goddess Star Pce?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded, "It is only a brief cultivation insight. But if I were to mediate for 10,000 years in seclusion, I may be able to gain the insight."

    "I would need maybe 3000 years." Yun Chi said coolly.

    Ji Yuan was startled; 10 000 and 3000 years?! That is long even by the years of the golden celestials depending on their lightning tribtion. He doubted that he may be even be here 10 000 years ago.

    But they are immortals and they have such a long life¡­

    This was not the main issue that Ji Yuan had. His main issue was that he could bang them for 3000 and 10 000 years. This is simply too insane and he cannot ept such an oue.

    Maybe by then, even his daughter would grow up to be a maiden and without knowing that she has got a papa.

    Even the maidens that were next to Ji Yuan were startled that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng may be going to seclusion for such a long time.

    However their chats were soft because only Ji Yuan''s closest group knows that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng are actually immortals. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    So Ji Yuan frowned, "Give me a little more time. I''ll show you my Golden Natal Divine Pearl¡­"

    He was quickly interrupted by Xiao Muhan who had raised his voice on the other side, "You know. For an epic deste monster to appear in this ce, there must also be some miracle herbs. We should follow it to its hideout¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him almost immediately, "We shall go to the opposite direction and that will be our final destination."

    Xiao Muhan began tough weakly for Ji Yuan was the de facto leader of this group.

    Ji Yuan did not cast Xiao Muhan out because he was actually protecting his friend; he did not expect for Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan to actually reach the upper area of the final trial.

    Xiao Muhan was only an initial saint and Ji Yuan was bemused that even if he got 10 golden talismans with him, this would still be futile.

    It was because even though his Senior Mo Bei was a little formidable but he was more interested to protect Maiden Qin Shuang than Xiao Muhan.

    As he did not want his best friend to die in this ce, he pretended to grudgingly ept Xiao Muhan into his party.

    Ji Yuan suddenly had a brilliant thought as he whispered to Yun Chi, "Why don''t you scout ahead of us by checking for us where the trial portals are? After all, you can fly."

    Yun Chi rolled her golden eyes before she smiled coolly, "I am afraid this is impossible."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The other maidens: ???

    Yun Chi exined with a soft sigh, "Why do you think we have Bliss City in the middle area instead of the upper trial area? It is because the upper trial areas are filled with deadly traps to kill any trespassing immortals. There are plenty of hidden immortal formations in these mountains so I can''t fly recklessly and who knows if I may even be a target in this ce and endanger all of you."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he bitterly said. "Just like in the previous trial, it is designed to destroy the intruding immortals?"

    Yun Chi nodded slowly, "Even the difficult will change when I have entered the portals. It has been so long since I have entered a trial in the upper trial area that I have almost forgotten how dangerous it can be."

    Then she touched her belly with a blissful look, "I don''t want to take any risk anymore. It is because I have a daughter now and I am going to protect her no matter the costs¡­"

    When she had said that, all the maidens around Ji Yuan had an awkward look but they were also happy for Yun Chi.

    Shui Xisi giggled to damper the atmosphere a little, "I don''t get it. It is so hard for even golden celestials to have a child. And Ji Yuan can actually have a child with an immortal. I still don''t believe it."

    Ji Yuan took a meaningful look at her before he grinned shamelessly, "That is because I am powerful in that area. Haha¡­ you can try me if you don''t believe me."

    Yun Chi, Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi: ¡­

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. The next trial is going to have insane difficultypared to thest trial. The previous trial is only scare but this is going to be really difficult. (roll eyes).

 Chapter 684 Prelude To The 2nd Upper Final Trial (2)

    ?

    3 days had quickly passed.

    Ji Yuan and his group had finally found a new trial area in the towering mountains.

    They did not waste their profound strength to fight any of the deste monsters or dark creatures in the vicinity.

    And they were also lucky enough to avoid getting ambushed by the many dark denizens that haunted the vicinity as well.

    The trial area was located on a tform and there was an inertia barrier around it that prevented the deste monsters from approaching.

    You can say that the trial area was the only safe ce in the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth from its dangerous denizens. However, the dangers maye from the other celestial cultivators that are camping at the trial safe zones.

    Right now, there were close to 300 celestial cultivators that were camping around this trial area. These celestials were naturally all high level cultivators and there were even many old freaks that were at the epitome in their celestial fraternities.

    Naturally when they saw Ji Yuan and his group, they had a look of wee in their golden eyes because theycked the numbers to start the trial.

    However, many of the celestial cultivators were smiling lecherously when they saw the many alluring and moving veiled maidens in Ji Yuan''s group; not all the cultivators were orthodox cultivators and even the orthodox cultivators were lustfully looking in the direction where Ji Yuan was.

    Veil or no veil, these maidens were all extreme beauties.

    One of the celestials, had taken a disdain look at Ji Yuan and his group and was heard muttering, "Do they have to travel in such a big group for protection? Cowards."

    But he quickly stepped forward as he rubbed his short beard to smile, "Hurry up and touch the ck stele in the middle of the tform. We need 300 cultivators to touch this ck stele in order to open the trial. Your group has managed toe in a nick of time."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially when he saw the short beard cultivator and he went ahead of the others, "I am Ji Yuan from the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "Did you just say you are from the Deste Celestial Fraternity?" The short bearded cultivator began to frown before heughed. "Then where is your beard?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He hated it when the others mentioned about his beard when he had no beard¡­

    So he rudely said, "Brethren Brother Cultivator, you seem to have forgotten to make your introduction. Do you know the rules of the Celestial Realm?"

    The short bearded cultivator hummed coldly in return, "Great Saint Xi Huangdi!"

    Ji Yuan hummed with equal coldness, "You know. I don''t have any fondness with any cultivators that have the family n name of Xi."

    Xi Huangdi rebuked Ji Yuan angrily, "I am a great saint. Where are your celestial manners?"

    Many of the celestials that were behind Xi Huangdi were secretly mocking Ji Yuan for not knowing the celestial rules of the Celestial Realm. This type of cultivator is usually the first to be killed for offending the other celestial cultivators.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he patted his old rugged robe, "You have better believe it. I am Great Saint Ji Yuan as well as Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Haha¡­"

    The maidens that were behind Ji Yuan was quietly whispering awkwardly among themselves: We ought to buy Ji Yuan some decent cultivation robe. He is just a disgrace in his old robe¡­

    Even the White Sword Monarch that was far behind Ji Yuan had a look of awkwardness when his core disciple Ji Yuan was being mocked by hundreds of celestial cultivators.

    He began to mutter weakly: It is all my fault that I have never brought him any decent cultivation robe in the past and now he is addicted to his old robe¡­

    Xi Huangdi took a mocking look at the old and broken robe that was on Ji Yuan before heughed, "You are just a poor cultivator that tries to seek your lucky urrence in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I am just surprised that you are able to make it to the final trial."

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "Lucky?! Haha¡­ if you know how many times that I have ranked number 1 in the trial, you would surely eat the dirt in this ce. Haha¡­"

    Xi Huangdiughed jovially, "Oh really?"

    He took out a cultivation profound treasure and dared Ji Yuan, "Do you dare to touch this orb?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he touched the orb, "See I''ve touched it! Why shouldn''t I dare to touch this orb? Haha¡­"

    Xi Huangdi smirked with mockingughter in his golden eyes, "This orb will reveal if you are telling the truth. Green for the truth and red for the untruth."

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was also intrigued by this cultivation profound treasure, "This cultivation profound treasure is so interesting. You n to give it to me?"

    Xi Huangdi: ¡­

    Give it to you? Fat hope!<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But he replied instead, "You say you are first in many of the trials. So I want you to know what is the result of yourst trial."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Number 1 of course¡­"

    The orb was suddenly shing red.

    "What the heck?!" Ji Yuan was startled.

    Xi Huangdi hummed coldly, "Now tell me honestly. Are you at the bottom of your ranking in thest trial? Yes or no?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "No, of course¡­"

    Once again, the orb began to sh a bright red.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered, "Then, yes?"

    All of a sudden, the orb began to sh a bright green.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xi Huangdiughed in a mocking manner, "There is nothing truthful about you. Just a quick check and I know how weak your cultivation foundation is. I don''t want to waste my time with you. Hurry and touch the ck stele. Can''t you see that we are all waiting for your group to start the trial?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden, a most coquettish looking maiden with a beautiful vixen look had shed next to Xi Huangdi and Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that it was actually Maiden Hua Yunzi¡­

    He had suddenly remembered he had a wet dream about her just before she had quietly left his group while they were in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    Hua Yunzi looked equally awkward when she was looking at Ji Yuan but she quickly said coldly to Xi Huangdi, "Leave Great Saint Ji Yuan alone. He is indeed a great saint. Both of you are great saints. It will be a tough fight between the two of you¡­"

    Both Ji Yuan and Xi Huangdi immediately protested at the same time, "I will surely kick his ass¡­"

    Xi Huangdi hummed coldly but not before leaving with a stern warning, "Don''t let me see you inside the trial or you will surely regret it."

    Ji Yuan did something crude and pointed his middle finger behind Xi Huangdi.

    This stunned all the celestials that were looking in his direction.

    But Ji Yuan pretended that he did nothing of this sort and quickly looked the other way at Hua Yunzi, "Maiden Hua Yunzi, why are you here?"

    Hua Yunzi quickly said with a look of panic in her golden eyes, "Don''t be mistaken. I did not follow you or Little Princess. I just happen to be here to take the trial here."

    This was the truth.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he stared down at Hua Yunzi''s bosoms; he was not even paying attention to what she was saying just a moment ago.

 Chapter 685 Prelude To The 2nd Upper Final Trial (3)

    ?

    Hua Yunzi shifted ufortably when she saw that Ji Yuan was suddenly staring down at her bosoms.

    She quickly whispered, "Be wary of some of the cultivators here. There are a few cultivators that are from the Evil Cultivation Pce here and you are their target."

    With that she had quickly left to rejoin the group of celestials that were slowly shifting from their meditations; it was because this may mean that the trial was going to start anytime soon and they were now ending their meditations.

    Ji Yuan took a quick look at the male and female celestials that were all looking in his direction.

    It was easier to identify the men from the Evil Cultivation Pce since they were from the Deste Celestial Fraternity and should have a beard. Also, their robes may mark the origin of their celestial fraternity but this was not reliable.

    But then again, the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce maye from a different celestial fraternity like Hua Yunzi too.

    So, he gave up on trying to guess who his enemies were.

    At least he knows that they would not strike at this moment since they need his group to open the trial first.

    Ji Yuan was quickly joined by his group as they slowly walked to the ck stele in the middle of the tform.

    Almost 300 cultivators were now checking them out.

    Ji Yuan could feel that every single one of these cultivators were all formidable figures in their own right.

    There were also some unfathomable old freaks like his old master the White Sword Monarch too and they were watching them quietly.

    Xiao Muhan could not help but shiver under their intense gazes and he was muttering, "I guess this ce isn''t for the likes of a mere saint like me¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he could tell that more than half of the celestials here did not look the least friendly at all and they were looking at them impatiently to touch the ck stele.

    But Ji Yuan did not touch the ck stele as these celestials had hoped and instead, he wasughing out loud, "Let''s read the ck stele first¡­"

    Xi Huangdi had heard him and he was raising his voice impatiently, "It doesn''t matter. Just touch the ck stele and the portal will open for us. You can choose not to enter the portal to take the trial. Do us a favor and hurry!"

    But Ji Yuan pretended not to hear him and his group was also showing no interest in touching the ck stele too; they were all purposely trying to infuriate everyone here.

    Ji Yuan began to read the inscriptions on the ck stele and he was quite startled that this was actually a SS Trial.

    "SS Trial¡­ and it is also an individual trial. So, there are no chance that we may meet inside. It requires 300 cultivators to touch the ck stele for the portal to open. Also, this is a spiritual trial? What is a spiritual trial?"

    Ji Yuan turned to his group and asked, "So who is going to take the trial with me?"

    Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi were giggling as they said, "Take us with you!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were also nodding to indicate that they were also willing to take the trial.

    The White Sword Monarch muttered a word of warning, "This is not a joking matter. This is a SS Trial and also an individual trial. Therefore, it won''t be easy."

    Yun Chi had suddenly said, "I''ll stay here instead."

    Ji Yuan was surprised, "You''re sure?"

    Yun Chi nodded, "We won''t know of the hidden mysticws until we are inside the portal. I am not taking any necessary risks after thest trial."

    Bai Qianfeng was also saying, "I will also stay here instead. The trials here are too unfriendly to us¡­"

    She had neglected to mention that she is an immortal like Yun Chi because she did not want Xiao Muhan, Mo Bei and Qin Shuang to know of their immortal origins.

    Mo Bei gave Ji Yuan a pat as he said, "Junior Ji Yuan, I am not going to the trial. Maiden Qin Shuang and I shall stay in this ce."

    Ji Yuan nodded and said, "So I guess that Xiao Muhan is also staying with you?"

    But Xiao Muhan quickly said, "Do you think that I am a coward like you? Of course, I am going inside the trial. This is a SS Trial and I want to experience what a SS Trial."

    In front of Yun Chi, he had to act braver than Ji Yuan, of course.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he muttered weakly, "Friend, are you sure? I can''t protect you if you insist on going inside the portal."

    Xiao Muhanughed it off, "Don''t worry about me. Worry about your maidens first."

    Yu Jingjing smiled as she interrupted them, "I''m not going."

    "Same here." Yang Mi was also saying. "I will apany my Jingjing here."

    They really did not have any confidence in making through this trial after thest trial. Moreover they were not sure if they could use the golden talisman to escape from this trial.

    Feng Minyue said gently, "Ji Yuan, I will stay here as well."

    Ji Yuan was surprised, for Feng Minyue is a peaked great saintess and she was more than capable to survive the trials.

    Feng Minyue actually did not enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to seek any lucky urrence and she had merely entered to apany Fan Yuqing. She was actually a passive maiden that had no worldly interest, even giving up her sect leadership position in the past too so that she could retire from the intrigues of the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    Little Princess was smiling mesmerizingly, "I shall apany Maiden Feng here as well."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "It seems that half of our group is staying in this ce. But this is good¡­"

    He had actually wished that the maidens would not enter this trial because this was an individual trial and he did not want to endanger their lives.

    But they are all cultivators and he had to respect their decisions.

    The White Sword Monarch said to Ji Yuan, "Little Rascal. I''ll be staying here as well."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Old man, you are afraid? I''ve thought that you are full of iron guts?"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned unhappily, "Can''t you read? This is a spiritual trial. I amcking in my inner spiritual seas. This will be hard for me. As for you, are you sure that you are able to take a spiritual trial?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes before he looked at everyone, "I do have a pure soul sea, you know."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue muttered weakly, "He just wants to try all the trials that he is encountering. He is so greedy."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Isn''t this the purpose ofing to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the first ce?"

    Once everyone had decided their options, Ji Yuan and his group proceeded to touch the ck stele.

    Almost immediately, a red portal had suddenly opened in front of the tform that was facing a steep mountain.

    Almost immediately, the celestials that were nearby began to make a mad rush into the red portal to seek their lucky urrence.

    Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong began to follow the celestials into the red portal.

    Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang, Feng Minyue, Little Princess and the White Sword Monarch had decided to camp in this ce as they awaited the return of Ji Yuan and his group.

    They could only wish the best of luck for Ji Yuan and his group; it was because it was the way of the cultivators to take on the trials and no one should dissuade anyone from making their life and death callings.

    1. What kind of a SS Trial is this?

 Chapter 686 Ji Yuan The Infamous

    ?

    Soon after Ji Yuan had entered the red portal, he found himself floating in a dark spatial space and the lovely voice of a trial spirit began to say to him.

    "Wee to the Wondend of the Spirit Divine Realm Trial¡­ this is the Trial of the Spirits¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to nod eagerly and he was grinning.

    The lovely voice of the Trial Spirit continued slowly in the background of the spatial space, "After I''ve exined to you on the mysticws here, you will be free to start the trial."

    "I am all ears." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    The Trial Spirit said lovingly, "You will be given a profound ring on your finger. The main objective is to obtain 100 points of trust from the Divine Consort in the trial. You have 7 days to do so. Or 70 days inside the trial to do so since the time flows at a different rate there¡­"

    "¡­ for this trial, you will be sent to the Spirit Divine Realm where the Spirit Race dwells. You may also call them the Spiritas Race..."

    "¡­You will also be allowed to use your golden talisman within 70 days inside to escape from the trial. But by doing so, you will also be failing your trial. However, be warned. Gaining 100 Trust Points does not mean that you can leave the trial and you need to maintain the 100 Trust Points till the 70 days are over. At the same time, I will disguise your robe into a local clothing so that you can blend in for this trial¡­"

    The lovely voice of the Trial Spirit paused for a while before saying, "¡­so do you have any other questions for me before I send you on your way?"

    Ji Yuan began to frown slowly as he tried to understand the nature of this trial, "You mean this is a SS Trial? This doesn''t seem to be so hard after all. So, my objective is just to seduce the Divine Consort and gains 100 Trust Points? I am sure that I have no issue about this but my friend Xiao Muhan is going to be in deep trouble. Luckily for him, he now has a golden talisman to exit the trial¡­"

    The Trial Spirit interrupted him impatiently, "What are your questions?"

    Ji Yuan continued to ponder, "I wonder what the Spiritas Race looks like. Are they ugly or beautiful? Or they look monstrous¡­"

    The Trial Spirit raised her lovely voice, "Your questions please¡­"

    This sobered Ji Yuan a little as he began to chuckle before taking out 3 golden talismans in his fingers, "I have 3 golden talismans with me as well. I can''t possibly die in this SS trial. At the most, I can just forfeit this trial anytime. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Trial Spirit had zapped Ji Yuan and the 3 golden talismans that were in Ji Yuan''s fingers were snatched away by an unknown force and had also disappeared.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What the heck? Did you just steal my golden talismans from me??!"

    The Trial Spirit answered coldly, "You must be that Ji Yuan and the cultivator with the Goddess'' Tear."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You know me?"

    Even Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang who were in Ji Yuan''s soul sea were startled that this Trial Spirit had known Ji Yuan.

    Xiang Li said to Fairy Anyang: Let me guess. This is Big Brother''s ex-girlfriend too?

    Fairy Anyang answered weakly: I''ve got a bad feeling about this¡­

    The Trial Spirit hummed coldly, "Of course I do know you. You are the infamous Ji Yuan that quarreled and argued with all the Trial Spirits in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. In all the years of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, there are no cultivators that are as notorious as your ugly reputation¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to protest halfway, "I am a cultivation hero in my celestial fraternity. And I am also from an orthodox celestial n. How can you say that I have a most notorious ever reputation in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? This is impossible, right?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Trial Spirit ignored Ji Yuan and continued to say coldly, "And also, you have even taken away 2 Trial Spirits from their Trial Wondends. And have even offended my 3 old friends by calling them old fraggots¡­"

    One was Fairy Xiahou Anyang and the other used to be Xiang Li''s mistress (she had since transitioned into Ji Yuan''s sword spirit now).

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan was startled, "You mean you know that 3 old fraggots that can''t even appreciate my most impressive ever cultivation hero story? You have no idea howme they are! Also, I have a most friendly rtionships with most of the Trial Spirits in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth except for that 3 old fraggots!"

    Xiang Li meanwhile had turned to Fairy Anyang to ask her: Hmm? The Trial Spirits here canmunicate with each other?

    Fairy Anyang replied weakly: Not all the time. But this is a SS Trial Spirit and she must have a way to view the trial events that are in the lower Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I don''t know her at all.

    The Trial Spirit hummed coldly, "Have you also forgotten so fast already how you have offended my other friend in your previous trial?"

    Ji Yuan began to frown, "You mean that stupid old Trial Spirit that have stolen my trial rewards?"

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    "Begone now! I don''t want to answer any of your questions even if you have one¡­"

    Ji Yuan panicky shouted, "Wait! Wait! How about my 3 golden talismans? Return it to me!"

    The Trial Spirit seemed to smile coldly, "Not a chance. This is your due punishment. I am also sending you to where the hardest Divine Consort is. May your trial ends in utter failure."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "Hey! You can''t do this to me. You are a Trial Spirit and where is your fairness? This is wanton discrimination¡­"

    But before Ji Yuan could say further, he was kicked down the spatial space with a brilliant sh of light.

    Fairy Anyang stared nkly at Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Xiang Li, I think this SS Trial has just turned into a SSS Trial for our lord here¡­

    Even Xiang Li was smiling weakly as she looked at Fairy Anyang: I think Big Brother has screwed up even before the trial has started¡­

    Fairy Anyang nodded bitterly: He ought to respect the Trial Spirits a little bit more¡­ frankly speaking, I actually believe that his reputation is this horrible. How do you even manage to endure him?

    Xiang Li began to giggle softly: Is that so? I don''t think so.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Author Note:

    1. The Spirit Divine Realm is a trial of the spirits and is also a SS Trial. In the next chapter, JY will be sent to this ce.

 Chapter 687 The Spirit Divine Realm (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan had crashed onto the grassy ground while he was still cursing unhappily, "You can''t do this to me. This is wanton discrimination against a gentleman of the sword like me¡­ you know what. I am going to hate this ce and I want to forfeit this trial now..."

    But as soon as he hadnded onto the ground, he began to shake the wobbly feeling that he had just experienced from traveling through the spatial space to examine his new surroundings.

    He saw that he was in a ce full of lush meadows and there seemed to be a white city with blue spires that stood on top of a hill that was nearby.

    He began to frown, "This ce looks quite beautiful and is full of spiritual auras. Also, there is a city in front of me. Is this ce really a SS Trial?"

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, this trial has just be a SSS Trial for you now.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Where are you when I need you just now?"

    Xiang Li began to protest immediately: Big Brother, have you forgotten that you have sent Anyang and I to meditate on the Golden Natal Profound Pearl on your behalf?

    She stopped briefly to giggle before adding: We need intense meditation on this, you know.

    Fairy Anyang rolled her eyes but said nothing.

    Ji Yuan began to say aloud, "s. I''ve almost forgotten about this. Keep up the good job, Xiang Li and Anyang. Haha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang began to shake her head¡­

    Xiang Li began to giggle as she whispered to Fairy Anyang: Anyang, remember to meditate on the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. You know that I amzy and useless at the same time¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had paused in his tracks and he was quite startled that his old robe had been transformed into a toga under the profound illusion of this trial.

    He shockingly gasped, "I am wearing a short skirt now?! And where is my boot? I am wearing a sandal now? And this toga is exposing my hairy legs¡­"

    Xiang Li interrupted with a giggle: Big Brother, where are your hairy legs?

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly; he had forgotten that he had also lost his hairy legs after his failed bodily transformation into a saint¡­

    So he quickly babbled, "Haha. It seems that it is up to the 3 of us now toplete this trial on our own. But you all know that I am actually the one that is doing all the work and the thinking¡­"

    As he said that, he began to sh toward the white city that was on the top of the hill that was in front of him.

    While running toward the city, he also saw that he was wearing a weird looking ring with a ck ember on it.

    "This must be the trial ring that can enable me to read the Trust Points?"

    "So, what is my trial objective again?"

    Xiang Li offered a helpful hint: Seduce the Divine Consort and gains 100 Trust Points.

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily all of a sudden, "Xiang Li. Howe you are still able to talk to me? Aren''t you supposed to be meditating on the Golden Natal Divine Pearl like Anyang now?"

    Xiang Li giggled: I am actually going soon but I am afraid that my Big Brother may need some help to remember his trial objective."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am a cultivator and I have a good memory. How is it possible for me to forget about my trial objective?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiang Li giggled in response, "That is why I am Big Brother''s most useless sidekick."

    "Of course you are!" Ji Yuanughed aloud. "Just follow me and I''ll make sure that you will be able to survive this trial."

    Fairy Anyang was rolling her eyes as she said to herself: My lord Ji Yuan haspletely forgotten how he has got into this fine fix. And he is supposed to be the one that is taking the trial and not Xiang Li. Xiang Li is just buttering to her Big Brother¡­

    Soon Ji Yuan had reached the foot of the hill that the white city with blue spires was located.

    But he was soon blinking his golden eyes and he was looking quite shocked.

    It was because he had suddenly seen the sight of many beautiful maidens walking into the city and most of them were wearing revealing short robes that showed their bodies that did not hide their modesty.

    He even saw that some of the more noble looking maidens were just wearing a flimsy transparent silk short robe that did not seemed to hide their boobs from view and they were not even wearing any panties with only a metallic chain that was hanging loosely between their butts and front.

    Some even had just a thinly piece of silk cloth between their legs, exposing their thighs to the fullest.

    "They are wearing nothing for the imaginations..."

    Also, he had noticed that there were few men in the crowd and they were all wearing togas like him.

    He began tough jovially as though he suddenly had other ns, "What is this ce again? The Spirit Divine Realm? Haha¡­ I think I am in love with this ce already. Hahahahaha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang could not resist it anymore and she was suddenly reminding Ji Yuan, "My lord! Remember that this is a Spirit Trial! Don''t be deceived by your eyes and this is also a SS Trial!"

    Ji Yuan seemed to have forgotten that Fairy Anyang was supposed to be in meditation and he quickly found an excuse as heughed, "Don''t worry Anyang. I have really good eyes and my eyes never fail me¡­"

    He was already casting his nces at the swaying butts of the maidens that were at the city gate.

    Fairy Anyang reminded him again, "You''ve got 70 days to gather 100 Trust Points. Without any golden talisman, you can''t quit this trial and you will be struck here for 500 years or 5000 years here¡­."

    But Ji Yuan was simply not listening. "s Anyang, 70 days here is just too short for me. Maybe the Trial Spirit meant to say 700 days? Haha..."

    Instead, he was running faster than ever toward the white city as heughed with great delight. "What is my trial objective again? Get more information in the city. Found out where the Divine Consort is and seduces her for my Trust Points. I''ve got such a beautiful face and no maidens would be able to resist me¡­ Hahahaha¡­ I am simply in love with this beautiful ce¡­"

    Fairy Anyang pointed it out with an exasperated look: Didn''t you say that you hate this ce and wants to forfeit the trial at the very start?

    Ji Yuanughed, "I don''t remember saying anything like this. I just love my trials."

    Fairy Anyang: ...

    She could only sigh weakly: I got a feeling our lord is going to fail this trial badly¡­

    Xiang Li was heard encouraging Ji Yuan: Big Brother, so we shall collect them all?

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This trial definitely has a catch or else it won''t be a SS Trial.

 Chapter 688 The Spirit Divine Realm (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was running across the beautiful meadows in a hurry and heading toward the white city that was sitting on top of the hill when he spotted a familiar sight.

    And he was quite stunned.

    It was because another bearded man in a toga was also running toward the same ce and he looked delighted.

    He had naturally recognized that bearded man to be Xiao Muhan of course.

    And both men were suddenly staring at each other and shouting at almost the same time.

    "Dang! Why are you here in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan quickly warned his friend, "Brother Xiao Muhan, listen to me. Quickly use your golden talisman. This is a most difficult trial and you are not going toplete it."

    Xiao Muhanughed coldly, "Brother Ji Yuan, are you trying to pull my leg? Why don''t you use your golden talisman instead?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "My golden talismans were all stolen by the Trial Spirit of this trial."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Darn you, Ji Yuan! Can''t you tell a better story than this? The Trial Spirit won''t take anything away from the cultivators. This is not their way and they have their own mysticws to follow."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Look at my eyes. Do you really think that I am lying to you? How long have you known me by the way?"

    Xiao Muhan hummed coldly, "Precisely that I have known a drunkard like you for centuries and precisely I have been tricked numerous times by you that I know when you are not honest."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am serious now, Brother Xiao Muhan¡­"

    Xiao Muhan waved his hand as he interrupted Ji Yuan, "Don''t give me this crap of yours. Now you don''t have the protection of the others and Maiden Yun Chi isn''t here anymore. You can stop your yacting¡­"

    "Do you think that Great Saint Ji Yuan here will be afraid of a mere saint like you?" Interrupted Ji Yuan coldly.

    Xiao Muhan answered with equal coldness, "When I was a golden saint, you are still a mere sixth realm golden supremacy. What a joke."

    Ji Yuanughed, "When I am now a peaked great saint, you are still a mere golden saint of the lower tier. Are you still at the earth-step or have you managed to reach the heaven-step of your saint tier?"

    Xiao Muhan warned Ji Yuan, "You may have won Yun Chi thest time but this time, I am going to seduce the Divine Consort for myself and toplete this SS Trial. My manliness got nothing to do with the status of my cultivation or yours."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "What a joke. I am the one that is going to seduce this Divine Consort and toplete this trial. And I am definitely more manliness than you¡­"

    "Without your beard?" Xiao Muhan interrupted with a loud chuckle. "Ji Yuan, you are still as funny as ever."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "It isn''t funny¡­"

    Xiao Muhan stared at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, what is wrong with you? Are you my brother or not? Give it up and go away! Burn your golden talisman!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan growled, "There is nothing wrong with me. You are the one that is wrong!"

    Xiao Muhan angrily said, "Of course there is something wrong with you. It is just that you have not realized it and I don''t want to break your fragile heart."

    Ji Yuan retorted with a chuckle, "I would have a fragile heart?"

    Xiao Muhan pulled Ji Yuan to him and said solemnly, "In all the years that we have known each other, how many times have you fought with me over a maiden?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "Erm, none?"

    Xiao Muhan nodded slowly, "Of course you don''t fight over a maiden with me. That is because you are not interested in any maidens¡­"

    "Of course I am interested!" Ji Yuan quickly interrupted him.

    "No!" Xiao Muhan pointed out. "You are never interested in any maidens. Moreover, you are never interested in any maidens that you have never met before. This is so unlike you. You are not the Ji Yuan that I have known in the past. You have never acted recklessly based on hearsays. In fact, I clearly remember that you don''t like Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue in the past. You have even called them fake beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan began to frown rather sheepishly, "Did I? I don''t remember¡­"

    Of course he remembered for he had insulted these two maidens more than once in front of his drinking friends.

    He quicklyughed, "But it is all in the past, Hahaha¡­."

    Xiao Muhan continued to say, "And you don''t even know how whether if this Divine Consort is beautiful or not, fat or thin and you want to seduce her? Is this really the Ji Yuan that I have known in the past? What if this Divine Consort is a super ugly maiden?"

    Ji Yuan began to hesitate as he began to ponder¡­

    This is a SS Trial and didn''t that Trial Spirit say that she will send me to the most difficult part of the trial? What if Xiao Muhan is actually right?

    Xiao Muhan continued to say solemnly, "And what if this Divine Consort is a man? Have you ever considered this as a possibility before?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly gasping with shock, "I have really never considered this as a possibility. Maybe you are right¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was smiling now when he saw Ji Yuan''s expressions.

    He knows Ji Yuan all too well; as long as he ys the super cautious card then Ji Yuan will surely fall for it. It is because Ji Yuan is by nature a cautious person when ites to people.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had patted Xiao Muhan on his shoulder as he began to grin, "Give me a golden talisman and I shall forfeit this trial. You can seduce the Divine Consort for all you want and I won''t even blink my eyes."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Why do you want my golden talisman for? You have 3 already."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he pointed out, "Well, these golden talismans belong to Yun Chi actually. If you give me your golden talisman then I can simply use yours to exit the trial and they won''t even know that since I still have 3 golden talismans¡­"

    He added with a grin, "You know that I value my face a lot."

    Xiao Muhanughed as he handed Ji Yuan a golden talisman, "Good point, Brother Ji Yuan! Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as well, "Haha. Thank you, Brother Xiao Muhan!"

    But he was actually thinking: It is not toote to check the looks of the Divine Consort first¡­ and at least I can y in this city for a while and won''t be struck in this trial now¡­ haha¡­

    Just as he was worried that he may be struck in this trial forever without any golden tailsmans, he had the good fortune of encountering Xiao Muhan and scamming his golden tailsman instead.

 Chapter 689 The Spirit Divine Realm (3)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had quickly reached the city gate of the white city with the blue spires and they were quite relieved to see that the ''Spiritas Race'' did not seem all too much different from them.

    They were quite concerned about their physical characteristics to the Spiritas Race and their eyes'' colors; they were most afraid that their identities as celestial cultivators would quickly be exposed.

    However, the Spiritas Race looked human. Some have pure golden eyes like them, some have mixtures blue and golden eyes, some have slightly pointed ears but some do not.

    They had no idea what the cultivations of the Spiritas Race''s cultivation was. Or maybe they were just among their own kind?

    But nevertheless, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were quick to pick up the localnguage in just a few blinks of an eye by listening to the gossips around them.

    This speed was actually much quicker than their usual speed of learning a newnguage because they were both quite passionate to learn about this ''Spirit Divine Realm''.

    They were both grinning as they stared at the swaying exposed butts of the maidens that were standing in front of them as they were being let in into the city gate by the city''s guards.

    There were actually more maidens than men among the crowd, outnumbering by 10:1.

    This was something that was unexpected to Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan.

    Also, the maidens were all scantily dressed and they were not shy to expose their boobs beneath their transparent silk robe.

    Ji Yuan began to mutter, "This is too sinful¡­ are they all dressed like this in this ce?"

    Xiang Li was also muttering without Ji Yuan hearing her: This is really too sinful¡­

    She was supposed to be quietly meditating over the Golden Natal Divine Pearl and not supposed to hear Ji Yuan. That was why she was trying very hard not to make known of her presence to her big brother.

    Ji Yuan was also staring down at their exposed butts because there was just a short linen between their butts while some only had a piece of metallic chain between their butt.

    He continued to mutter, "This is really, really too sinful¡­"

    And so was Xiao Muhan.

    But Xiao Muhan soon turned to Ji Yuan to whisper, "Do we need an identification paper or something to be allowed into the city?"

    He was looking a little nervous.

    But Ji Yuan shook his head while rubbing his chin at the same time, "I don''t think so. I don''t see anyone giving the guards anything. Just a few simple questions and the city guards look casual¡­"

    Xiao Muhan frowned nervously, "I hope that you are right. I don''t want to be thrown into a jail without even seeing the Divine Consort¡­"

    "Me too," Chuckled Ji Yuan.

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Didn''t you promise me that you won''t approach the Divine Consort?"

    Ji Yuan weakly protested, "Just a glimpse only. Why are you so jumpy? When did I ever let you down?"

    Xiao Muhan muttered unhappily, "All the time. Remember all the good wines that you had drank in my ce over the past 3 centuries. I didn''t hold a poor cultivator like you ountable, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan then softly punched Ji Yuan before grinning, "So as brothers, you should always be honest with me. Now, one look at your sheepish face, I know that you have not entirely been truthful to me. So tell me, what have you been hiding from me?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he began to rub his chin to pretend to look innocent, "Do I look sheepish or even untruthful? It must be my missing beard. I swear it that it must be case that makes you think so¡­"

    Xiao Muhan growled, "You have better spill your marbles or I would tell your maidens all your secrets over the past years."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly protested, "This is emotional ckmail¡­"

    But he quickly grinned, "Well there is something that I didn''t want to tell you. I hope that you won''t be angry with me?"

    Xiao Muhan hummed coldly as he stroked his beard, "I promise I won''t get upset with you if you are honest with me."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuanughed softly before he lowered his voice to a whisper, "Well, you are right that I have been hiding something from you. You are indeed my best friend. You see. I have met Xi Jingping in the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind."

    Xiao Muhan was stunned and he startled to show rage in his golden eyes; this freaking Xi Jingping was the one that had turning him into her living furnace and cultivation melting cauldron!

    "You didn''t kill her to free me from my condition?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t be jumpy first. That ce is governed by a mysticw that prevents a cultivator from hurting another cultivator. So, there is nothing that I can do."

    Xiao Muhan stared at Ji Yuan coldly, "And you didn''t tell me until now?!"

    Ji Yuan smiled as he patted Xiao Muhan, "You can''t defeat her anyway. If you return to confront her then you would end up being her depraved ve. I am saving your life. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    The Spiritas Guards in front of them were now asking the group of 4 maidens that were in front of them, "Why are you here for?"

    The 4 maidens began to giggle softly, "We have some personal business here."

    Ji Yuan could not make any sense to what the maidens were saying but he saw the guards passing a note to each of the maidens. "This is your permit. Keep it properly. Now go."

    And the 4 maidens were allowed to enter the city.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he thought: It is this simple? There is no need to give them my name or cultivation realm?

    He was preparing to wow everyone with his peaked great saint cultivation realm just like in the cultivation stories and the guards would then be begging him to enter the city as a VVVIP.

    Even Xiao Muhan was looking startled for he was thinking on cooking up some excuses like he was a friend of the Divine Consort so that he could enter the city.

    Next it was Xiao Muhan and Ji Yuan turn.

    The guards were also asking them the same question, "Why are you here for?"

    Ji Yuan grinned and answered, "We have some personal business here."

    The guards appeared to be startled but they were soon grinning as they handed Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan the same piece of note, informing them. "This is your permit. Keep it properly. You may enter the city now."

    One of the Spiritas Guards even took a look at Ji Yuan, "He is really a beautiful male."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were absolutely delighted that they did not need to fight their way into the city.

    Therefore, they hastily entered into the city and they were grinning like they were in the Nine heavens while muttering excitingly, "I am a man of great culture..."

    The two of them had a lofty ambition now; they were going to dominate this city with their manly vibes!

    But they seem to have forgotten that this ce is called the Spirit Divine Realm and not the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The Spiritas guards could clearly see the joyous looks that were being disyed by Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan.

    They were grinning and shaking their heads.

    And one of the Spiritas Guards chuckled softly, "Nowadays even the male prostitutes are so passionate about their upation¡­"

    They had all misunderstood when Ji Yuan had grinned and told them that he had ''some personal business here''.

    If Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan could read the Spiritasnguage that was written in their permits then they would recognize that their upation was actually called ''male prostitute''.

    Author Note:

    1. More unexpected things are yet toe when Ji Yuan is inside the city.

 Chapter 690 Everyones Little Schemes

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both warning each other, "Don''t you dare to follow me!"

    Even though they were warning each other sternly but they were still walking together with a delighted look.

    This entire city was full of scantily dded maidens and there were few men.

    Xiao Muhan began to wonder, "Ji Yuan, do you think it is strange that there are so few men around here?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Not at all. Aren''t the city guards also men as well? Look, there are men there and over there. Aren''t we men as well?"

    Xiao Muhan said, "The maidens are also starting to look at us now and they are all smiling¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a loud chuckle, "They are looking at me, of course. The maidens here are really so sweet and friendly. I am going to rank this city as the friendliest ce for cultivators. Haha¡­"

    "They are actually looking at me, you beardless goat." Xiao Muhan protested immediately and he soon cast away his doubts. So, where are we going next?"

    Ji Yuan pointed to his left with a grin, "We are going to pick up some maidens and dig up some information about this ce. We can start with the 4 lovely maidens that we have seen earlier. Being in the same queue would also allow us to break the ice quickly. Moreover, I am quite masterful with the flowerynguage of the Spiritas Race now."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "You sure pick up theirnguage quickly."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Naturally that is also because I am gifted as a Great Poet. Haha¡­"

    The two of them were able to pick up the Spiritas Language just by picking up pieces mainly because they were cultivators and they could naturally assimte it through their profound cultivations.

    That was the reason why the cultivators never have a need for any trantors.

    "Look! There!" Ji Yuan had suddenly tugged at Xiao Muhan.

    Xiao Muhan looked up and saw that the 4 lovely maidens had entered into a building and it seemed like a tavern building.

    "We are going there now." Ji Yuan proudly dered.

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "This isn''t a good idea, right? I mean, do we look like stalkers? Why are we stalking them instead of looking for the Divine Consort?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Then do you have a better n than this? Brother Xiao Muhan, never say that I didn''t warn you. You can''t ask anyone in the street where the Divine Consort is or they would think that you are a pervert and they may even raise the rm against you. Then your trial will fail very badly. Therefore, we need to be as subtle as possible first¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen as he spotted Xi Huangdi on the street to the left and he was hugging a beautiful scantily dded maiden on her waist.

    "What the heck?!"

    But luckily this Xi Huangdi did not spotted them and they quickly shed out of his sight.

    Xiao Muhan turned to stare coldly at Ji Yuan, "Subtle? Inconspicuous? Look at what the other cultivators are doing now. We need to take action immediately and that Xi Huangdi is definitely going to affect my Trust Points."

    Ji Yuan had an ugly look when he had spotted Xi Huangdi.

    This was too unexpected and this had affected his ''ns''.

    But he could not tell Xiao Muhan that his n was to check the looks of the Divine Consort first before deciding on his next n of action. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    If the Divine Consort is beautiful, then he would dump Xiao Muhan off immediately in a most ceremonially manner. After all, there was no honor among thieves when ites to wooing a beautiful maiden.

    That was the reason why he was taking Xiao Muhan on a wild ride first.

    Xiao Muhan on the other hand, also had his own ''ns''.

    Naturally he did not trust Ji Yuan because Ji Yuan''s eyes had already betrayed him. But this was something that Xiao Muhan did not want to tell Ji Yuan.

    He nned to use Ji Yuan as a ma to attract the attention of the beautiful maidens since he had a more handsome look.

    Eventually, Ji Yuan would lose his natural advantage in this ce because Xiao Muhan had one clear winning advantage; he is really freaking rich. At least much richer than a poor cultivator like Ji Yuan.

    He nned to leave Ji Yuan with a huge debt in this ce and he would be too busy washing dishes in this ce than to fight with him over the affections of the Divine Consort.

    He began to grin as he pulled Ji Yuan to the tavern, "This may well be an inn at the same time. Why don''t we reserve for ourselves the best rooms while we are here?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Let''s take the best rooms and order the best food, just like in the good old days!"

    This sounded like a good idea since Ji Yuan was feeling quite poor and he was nervous about the finances in this city.

    Xiao Muhanughed, "Of course. We are brothers, after all."

    But secretly he was cursing: Ji Yuan, you are just a simpleton. You want me to foot your bills for you? My foot!

    Unknown to them, another cultivator had spotted Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan; he was a dark cultivator elder from the Evil Cultivation Pce and was also a great saint.

    He had naturally recognized Ji Yuan and one of his objectives were to kill him.

    But he had more sinister grin on his mind now; this ce is perfect for him to practice his evil dual cultivation profound arts. What if he could make the Divine Consort his depraved ve instead?

    Maybe he could even be a lord of this ce and also a ruler of the Spirit Divine Realm.

    This ce had so little men and the maidens here were all so enticing.

    The name of this dark cultivator was Grand Elder Gao Deyi and he was a peaked great saint that directly answered only to the Evil Cultivation Master.

    He was a master of many dark profound arts like profound poisons, shadow assassinations, dark alchemy, evil charms and pervert maniptions.

    Once he had locked on a target, no men or no maidens would be able to escape from his clutches. It was only a matter of time.

    -----------------------

    Author Note:

    1. The plot deepens in the next chapter with a Spiritas female lead.

 Chapter 691 Welcome To Snowy Pavilion City

    ?

    "Two rooms!"

    "We want the best rooms in this ce!"

    "And serve us the best spiritual food too. Mundane best food will also do!"

    "We only want the best and the most expensive."

    "We want a 2 month stay too!"

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had said at the same time as they grinned at the lovely maiden at the guest counter.

    This lovely maiden also has golden eyes; she was wearing a low neckline bodice that clearly showed her perked nipples clearly and moreover the silk that she was wearing were also transparent.

    Even her long hair could not hide herck of modesty.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both trying drooling over her and trying to impress her with their ''profound riches''.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Maiden, what is your name? How long have you been working here?"

    The lovely maiden casually said, unmindful of their stares. "That will be 2000 high grade spirit stones a day or 120 000 high grade spirit stones for a 2 month''s stay. Since there are two of you, that will be 240 000 high grade spirit stones. As for your food, how about 60 000 high grade spirit stones for the two of you? That will be 300 000 high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were suddenly blinking their golden eyes before they stared awkwardly at each other; this was too expensive¡­

    Ji Yuan slowly began to pat Xiao Muhan, "Brother Xiao Muhan, thank you for footing the bills for me. I really appreciate this¡­"

    Xiao Muhan began to curse Ji Yuan softly, "Do you really think that I can afford to stay here? Why don''t we ask what the cheapest rates are first?"

    Ji Yuan warned him softly, "This will be quite awkward to our faces if we mention this."

    Xiao Muhan weakly said, "Actually I am waiting for you to ask her about the cheapest rates and then I would say it is a good idea¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am also waiting for you to say the same¡­"

    The lovely maiden asked curiously when she saw their looks, "Well. How is it? Have you decided?"

    Ji Yuan quickly grinned back, "Erm, we are just discussing how much that we are going to tip you for your ''excellent'' services. Haha¡­"

    The lovely maiden began to smile, "I am more than happy to receive 10% of your payment as tips."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "10% is too little. It should be doubled. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued tough, "My Brother Xiao Muhan is really freaking rich here. But he is rather slow up there in his head when ites to tipping the right amount. It depends on your performance, of course. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    The lovely maiden began to smile; she immediately proceeded to shift her body as she leaned forward with her bouncing bunnies and with an amicable smile, "Is that so? Are there any other special demands that I can help you to fulfill then?"

    Xiao Muhan and Ji Yuan were both staring at her bunnies and they were almost drooling; they were both thinking at the same time: I want a bed service¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Young maiden, what is your name and how old are you?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The lovely maiden smiled with great loveliness, "You may call me Maiden Flower Ju. I''m quite young at 7000 years old."

    The jaws of Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had almost dropped in front of the table; this young maiden was actually older than them by scores of years!

    Ji Yuan was blinking at his 500 years vs. this young lovely maiden 7000 years¡­

    He began to mutter, "I wonder what is the cultivation realm of young maiden here?"

    The lovely maiden giggled softly as she began to ponder with a soft sigh, "I am merely at the beginning of the Sixth Spirit Realm here. I am still so far from the 7th Spirit Realm and it will be a long time till I will be able to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm. s, the Divine Consorts are all at the 7th Spirit Realm¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a shocked look, "You mean there are more than 1 Divine Consort in the city?"

    The lovely maiden returned a puzzled look at Ji Yuan, "You must be from the other outer world cities. We have 4 Divine Consorts in Snowy Pavilion City."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both gulping at the same time: There are actually 4 Divine Consorts in this city?!

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both thinking at the same time: Actually, I don''t mind seducing all 4 of the Divine Consorts at the same time¡­

    Unknown to Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, there was yet another cultivator that hade with them into the Spirit Divine Realm and he was drinking at a nearby table.

    He was Jiang Guanzhong, a great saint from the Middle Celestial Kingdom. In that celestial fraternity, he was a great hero and the smartest cultivator too.

    In fact, if there were a cultivation hero in the Celestial Realm, then the MC would surely be the Great Hero Jiang Guanzhong and he was perfect in all ways.

    And his celestial title happened to be the Perfect Hero as well.

    He had naturally recognized Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan even though they may not know him from among the hundreds of cultivators that hade into this trial.

    At this moment, he was cursing them silently: Are these two cultivators idiots? Why are they being so high profile in enemy''s territory?

    Don''t they know that this mere 6th Spirit Realm young looking maiden is stronger than any great saintesses from our Celestial Realm?

    Naturally he knows more about the Spirit Divine Realm than Ji Yuan or Xiao Muhan because he had been here 500 years ago previously and had failed the trial back then.

    He was also aware that there were two other cultivators, Xi Huangdi and Gao Deyi that were also in the vicinity; he did not waste his time on meaningless things and he had actually taken the time to remember all the faces of the cultivators that were taking part in the trial so he would not miss any of his potential enemies or rivals.

    He was the Perfect Hero of course. Therefore there were no details that were too small or insignificant for him to remember.

    Naturally, it was going to be him as the Great Hero Jian Guanzhong that would emerge gaining the 100 Trust Points andplete this SS Trial to im his heaven-defying cultivation fortune.

    And with this though, he was secretly smiling as he toasted himself a cup of wine.

    -------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. No wait! Maiden Flower Ju isn''t the lead heroine in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    2. There are actually 4 Divine Consorts in Snowy Pavillion City ugh).

 Chapter 692 The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong

    ?

    While Jiang Guanzhong was smirking coldly at Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, the best delicacy that he had ordered had just arrived.

    This was supposed to be best profound fish dish in this tavern and it was supposed to benefit the cultivator by boasting their inner spiritual seas over time. Therefore the more theye to this tavern to sample this dish, the more their inner spiritual sea would eventually increase.

    It was also the reason why this tavern would have so many people at this hour and they were all willing to pay an exorbitant figure of 100 000 high grade spirit stones for this profound fish dish.

    This profound fish dish had a name and it was called the Magnificent Spirit King Fish.

    Needless to say, this tavern was able to make a huge profit in Snowy Pavilion City just from selling this dish alone.

    When Jiang Guanzhong had taken his chopsticks to eat from this Magnificent Spirit King Fish that was put on his table, he instantly knew what was wrong with this dish.

    It was because he was perfect in all ways and even his cultivation culinary skills were 10 out of 10.

    He took a cold look at the guest counter where Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were at as he smiled silently: The two of you are just too young and too simple. Learn from me instead. This is how you are able to attract the attention of the Divine Consort¡­

    "This Magnificent Spirit King Fish is not worth 100 000 high grade spirit stones at all!"

    Jiang Guanzhong had raised his profound voice loudly so that everyone in the tavern from all corners, including the upper floors could hear him. "This profound fish dish is only worth a mere 1000 high grade spirit stones and even then, this valuation is still deemed to be too high!"

    Everyone was startled and shocked by Jiang Guanzhong''s sudden announcement.

    Naturally even the lovely maiden by the name of Maiden Flower Ju, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were also startled by the suddenmotion.

    Maiden Flower Ju had suddenly turned very pale as she hastily excused herself from Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan.

    She approached Jiang Guanzhong and said politely, "Master Cultivator, is something wrong with your dish? We only serve the most authentic profound food here in this ce."

    Jiang Guanzhong hummed coldly, "Everything is wrong with this Magnificent Spirit King Fish. The food is wrong and even the profound herbs that you have used are also wrong!"

    Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

    Everyone was gasping softly and did not know what to say; it was because there were many of them that had ordered the same dish as well.

    Therefore, they were all interested to hear what this Jiang Guanzhong was going to say.

    Jiang Guanzhong exined coolly, "The profound herbs that you have used in this dish may create an aromatic vor but it also has an addiction in it. The Green Spirit Lingzhi here may look like and taste like a thousand year old tonic Lingzhi but it is also what makes it addicting too¡­ if you consume too much of it, your spiritual strength may even weaken rather than having any increases¡­"

    Next, he pointed to another ingredient and smiled coldly. "This Toad Leaf is used as a substitution for the superior Dragon Mint Leaf, am I right? Both of them have the same simr look but its medical properties are a thousand miles apart!"

    He turned to look slowly at the crowd to say, "If you don''t believe me, you can easily take this dish to a local alchemist to examine it.

    Everyone was now gasping with shock.

    Jiang Guanzhong was not only an expert in cultivation culinary but his knowledge of the cultivation herbs was also 10 out of 10.

    And so was his food appraisal skill.

    He added with another smile, "This sauce may seem good but there is nothing in this whole thing that warrants a hefty 100 000 high grade spirit stones price tag."

    His intention was to attract the attention of the Divine Consort and this dish happened to provide him with the right excuse to kick a fuss that rocked the entire city.

    He knew that many of the maidens in this tavern were important dignitaries or young mistresses of the powerful Spiritas Race. Therefore, they would naturally help him to spread the word of his fame in a fairly quickly manner.

    Maiden Flower Ju quietly said, "Maybe our chef is not in a form today. Should I get you another dish to try? We can also waiver the price off for you¡­"

    Jiang Guanzhong interrupted her coldly, "This will not do, maiden. This dish is a scam and are you trying to bribe me¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was at the table and he was picking up a pair of chopsticks to sample the Magnificent Spirit King Fish.

    He took one bite beforementing, "Brother, this dish isn''t that bad and is fact quite tasty. Why are you making things so hard for a young maiden?"

    Ji Yuan had caught sight of the ck ring that Jiang Guanzhong was wearing and he was grinning, "We are not from this city. So maybe you are not used to the good foods that are here yet. I say, this dish is actually quite delicious. Haha¡­"

    Then he shoved the fish food to Xiao Muhan for him to take a sample too.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    At first Xiao Muhan had a look of disgust but as he chewed the food, he was muttering. "Actually I have to agree with you, Ji Yuan. This dish isn''t that bad¡­"

    Jiang Guanzhong stared coldly at Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan; he was quite disgusted by them because they had no sense of culinary in their taste buds and they were consuming food as though it was junk food.

    He smiled coldly at the two of them, "Then why don''t you pay 100 000 high grade spirit stones for me then?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly: Maybe I should shut up my mouth instead?

    All of a sudden, a young maiden in a gold and white transparent robe with a long golden pony hair on her left side was seen walking casually down the stairs.

    She was really a young beauty of course but Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were not staring at her beautiful face but somewhere below¡­

    It was because they could see her revealing boobs quite clearly and there was only a thin piece of cloth between her legs.

    It was obvious to Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan that she was not wearing any panties below. In fact, the maidens in this ce do not seem to be wearing any panties at all.

    Ji Yuan was muttering to himself: this is really too sinful.

    This extremely beautiful maiden casually looked at Maiden Flower Ju before saying in a soft musical voice, "Our mistress will like to see these two guests upstairs¡­"

    She was naturally referring to Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan of course.

    "¡­therefore, may you bring these two men of cultures upstairs first. As for this unhappy guest here, I shall be here to pacify him. Now go."

    Maiden Flower Ju quickly nodded as she pulled away Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, "Come follow me quickly. Our mistress is someone that does not like to wait."

    Ji Yuan reluctantly began to leave.

    Actually, he did not want to leave this extremely beautiful maiden here to pacify a celestial from his home world but neither did he want to cough out 100 000 high grade spirit stones.

    Therefore, he could only choose to leave with Maiden Flower Ju.

    And of course, he was also being pulled away by Xiao Muhan who did not want any troubles in this ce.

    "Ji Yuan, let''s go. This is not our problem!"

    When Maiden Flower Ju, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had disappeared from view; the extremely beautiful maiden began to smile at Jiang Guanzhong. "Great Hero, do you dare to take back your words earlier?"

    Jiang Guanzhong began tough coldly, "Is this the way to threaten your guest in this ce? Are you not afraid that your tavern will lose its reputation in the city? Maybe if you or your mistress would sleep with me then I may consider taking back my words."

    The extremely beautiful maiden sighed softly as she pped her hands loudly, "Our mistress says if this man does not take back his words, then we can only feed him as cultivation food to our spirit fishes in the pond."

    As she said that, the thirty maidens in the tavern were all suddenly staring coldly at Jiang Guanzhong.

    Jiang Guanzhong was startled to see that all the maidens in this tavern were staring murderously at him and he was stammering as he unsheathed his saint-step divine sword, "You are all not guests?!"

    He could still be able to escape because he was wielding a saint-step divine sword, a divine sword almost without an equal in the Celestial Realm.

    The extremely beautiful maiden began to giggle, "Outer world cultivator, you can eat the wrong foods but you can''t say the wrong words. Consider your saintly divine sword and your life as a just payment¡­"

    Jiang Guanzhong had a sudden realization, "You have already known that I am an outer world cultivator?!"

    The extremely beautiful maiden simply smiled, "I can assure you that no one will be able to hear the cries of your screams in this ce."

 Chapter 693 Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei

    ?

    Maiden Flower Ju had quietly taken Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan to a splendid room in the top upper floor.

    There were at least a dozen attractive maidens that were quieting standing at all corners of the floor that led to this splendid room.

    These attractive maidens lowered their heads humbly and did not flinch or even look when Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had walked past them.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Your mistress is waiting in this room for us?"

    Maiden Flower Ju slowly nodded and said, "My mistress is behind the curtains in this room."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both startled; it was because they could not sense the presence of anyone in this room!

    A soft melody voice began to say from behind the curtains, "Lift the curtains. I want to look at these two men."

    Maiden Flower Ju began to pull the curtains slowly to reveal an astonishing beautiful maiden that was lying sideway in front of the curtains and she had a hand resting on the side of head.

    This astonishing beautiful maiden had a mixture of gold and blue eyes as well as a pink sigil on her forehead.

    She looked frail though but unlike the other maidens, her modesty was carefully concealed by her flimsy transparent robe.

    Maiden Fairy Ju quickly said, "This is my mistress the Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei. She is also the owner of this tavern."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily when he saw that ''this mistress'' was actually such a great beauty and he began to introduce himself, "I am Ji Yuan."

    Xiao Muhan was also eager to hit it off with this Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and he quickly introduced himself, "I am Xiao Muhan."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei inspected them for a while before she smiled, "Please forgive my weak health. The two of you seem humble. Do you really like the Magnificent Spirit King Fish dish?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Oh that. It is delicious. I''ve never eaten anything this great."

    "Same here!" Xiao Muhan proimed. "It is just too heavenly!"

    Actually Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were not lying; it was because they truly enjoyed the dish earlier. Or rather, they had low culinary skills and they stayed in the poor regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. So any good food like the Magnificent Spirit King Fish dish was just too heavenly for them since they had never tasted better food than this in the past.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei took a moment to appraise them before smiling, "You have indeed been truthful. Naturally we only serve the best profound dishes in my tavern here."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he looked at this frail but astonishing beautiful maiden. "How dare anyone speaks ill of the food in your tavern. You know. Just ignore that cultivator just now and don''t pay too much attention to hisints. He is just someone that isn''t worth your time."

    Xiao Muhan was also smiling, "With a beautiful mistress like you in this tavern, who dares to say anything bad about the food here? Hehe¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei curiously asked, "But what if that man is right?"

    Ji Yuan immediately answered with a chuckle, "How could he be right? One look and I know that he isn''t even a profound culinary expert. He is just talking rubbish here¡­."

    "I bet that he is being sent here by your rivals to ruin you! If I were you, I shall chop him into pieces and feed him to the fishes..." Xiao Muhan quickly raised his voice to interrupted Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes to look sheepishly at Xiao Muhan and he was cursing silently: Bruh. You didn''t happen to see the ck ring that is on him, do you? He is actually one of us¡­ you are way too overboard with your curses¡­

    Concubine Xu Yifei turned to Ji Yuan with a wry smile, "What do you think is a fitting punishment for him then?"

    Ji Yuan quickly answered with a chuckle, "Feeding him to the fishes is just too good for the fishes. If I were you, I would surely put him into apany of depraved men. This will teach him not to open his vicious mouth in the future. Haha."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled, "I don''t think I can find any depraved men. How about depraved deste beasts instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "This is even better than my own idea. Haha¡­"

    Concubine Xu Yifei smiled more beautiful than ever, "If only everyone is as considerate as the two of you then this ce would be a happier ce."

    Just then, the extremely beautiful maiden with the long pony hair that had earlier appeared downstairs was now back and she was giggling to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "Mistress, I have settled him already."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei looked a little disappointed before she returned a soft sigh, "This Master Ji Yuan here says it is better to thrown him into apany of depraved deste beasts. I actually think that this is a good idea."

    The extremely beautiful maiden began to frown as she turned to stare at Ji Yuan, "I think it is already a little toote¡­"

    She had turned to see that Ji Yuan was also staring back at her or rather her body and she lit a curled smile in return, "Is there anything wrong? Why are you staring at me like this?"

    Actually, it was not only Ji Yuan that was staring at her but Xiao Muhan as well.

    Ji Yuan quickly tried to exin but in a rather weak manner, "I am just wondering if I am worthy to know what the name of maiden is?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He was actually wondering if the profound slips that were on her would suddenly be loosened and she would be ''identally'' exposing herself in front of him.

    At least, that was what had happened in many of the cultivation stories that he had read in the past.

    And Xiao Muhan was indeed his brother; the two of them were precisely thinking about the same thing as well.

    And of course, Ji Yuan was also thinking it would be great if she was his maiden and he would be pulling her pony hair as she blows for him¡­

    It was actually not wrong to say that this extremely beautiful maiden was actually more beautiful than even Concubine Xu Yifei herself.

    Moreover, Concubine Xu Yifei looked fragile.

    But this extremely beautiful maiden on the other hand looked energetic and even bubbly; moreover she also looked approachable.

    So naturally Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both thinking: It is not our fault that you have chosen to sh in front of us. I am actually a man of culture¡­

    Ji Yuan added one word silently: Since I am a ''great saint'' then I am definitely a man of ''great'' culture too¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden with the long pony tail began to giggle softly and she started to roll her beautiful golden eyes, "But I don''t even know what your names are¡­"

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "Xiao Muhan!"

    The extremely beautiful maiden took a look at Concubine Xu Yifei before turning to smile at Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, "My name is Maiden Han Muyuan. I am pleased to know you."

    Xiao Muhan was grinning with delight as he promptly chuckled, "Maiden Han Muyuan, I am pleased to know your name. Your name is indeed as beautiful as you!"

    Ji Yuan on the other head was smiling in a rather bitter way; it was because when she had reported her name to them, he had suddenly realized that she had simply taken all their names together and had pieced it together. This was a trick that he had used in the past¡­

    But he continued to grin awkwardly and quickly said, "Beautiful name! Beautiful name!"

    The extremely beautiful maiden took a look at Ji Yuan before smiling, "You seem less enthusiastism than earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly protested, "Of course not! I am just shy! Hahaha¡­ in fact, I want to ask your mistress if she can give your hand to me as consort. Hahaha¡­"

    "What the heck¡­" Xiao Muhan was stunned, "Ji Yuan, are you an ugly toad that is lusting after a swan?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes to Xiao Muhan to growl, "Who are you calling an ugly toad? You old goat."

    Xiao Muhan growled angrily, "I am an old goat now?!"

    Ji Yuan was secretly d that he was being distracted by Xiao Muhan and he was actually quite rmed that this extremely beautiful maiden looked a little too sharp for his liking.

    The extremely beautiful maiden smiled to Ji Yuan, "Unfortunately, I am already married and can''t be given to your hands."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Hahaha¡­ this is most unfortunately¡­ what a pity¡­"

    While Ji Yuan was faking his disappointments, Xiao Muhan was looking really disappointed when he had learnt that Maiden Han Muyuan was married.

    The extremely beautiful maiden giggled softly as she replied them with a wryly smile, "But fortunately, my mistress has been a widow for many years. If you are willing to ept a widow, then look no further."

    When Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had heard her, there was a subtle look in her eyes as she looked at Ji Yuan up and down for a few times.

    Finally, she answered nonchntly. "I wonder if Master Ji Yuan has any cultivation partner?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned when Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly asked him this question.

    Xiao Muhan was blinking his eyes when he stared at Ji Yuan and he was silently cursing him: Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei didn''t even ask me. How lucky you are¡­

    Ji Yuan began to blink his eyes to say with a straight face, "Erm, I don''t have any cultivation partner?"

    The extremely beautiful maiden began to look at Maiden Flower Ju and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei at the same time...

 Chapter 694 Maiden Han Muyuan

    ?

    Ji Yuan began to blink his eyes as he stared at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, Maiden Flower Ju and the extremely beautiful maiden by the name of ''Han Muyuan''.

    With a straight face, he said without any flinching in his countenance. "Erm, I don''t have any cultivation partner in this ce."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded and she curled a smile, "That''s good¡­"

    "But I do have a cultivation partner from where I am from." Ji Yuan interrupted with a soft sigh, "Therefore I must be honest with you. I''m sure that with the great beauty of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, you would definitely have nock of suitors."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei: ¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: Ji Yuan, you are an idiot! Just take her first. What are you thinking?

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking: My lofty aspirations are the 4 Divine Consorts. In order to reach the pinnacle of this trial here, I can''t be bothered with any other maidens. Haha¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei lowered her beautiful eyes to say, "I can understand. After all, I am frail and may be more than a burden for you."

    The extremely beautiful maiden was already next to her tofort her, "This¡­ at most I can find you another one¡­"

    "It is alright." Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled.

    Then she turned to Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan to ask them, "You are from the other city?"

    Ji Yuan immediately answered with a chuckle, "Yes, we are from a city that is far, far away¡­"

    "What is your city name?" Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were startled all of a sudden; they simply had no idea which city they were from and they were at a loss of words to answer this answer¡­

    But Ji Yuan quickly pulled his awkward acts together and answered weakly, "We are from Jedi City. It''s a really small city, some say it is just a vige. I don''t think you would have heard of my city''s name."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded slowly, "Indeed, I have not. It is not a city that I''ve known."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan immediately heaved a soft sigh of relief on the sly; they seemed to have passed their origin test. From today, they just have to fake their origins as from Jedi City.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked, "So what is your purpose ining to our city?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "We are here for some personal business."

    He had suddenly recalled what he had told the Spiritas Guards at the city gates.

    Xiao Muhan was also nodding to indicate that this was precisely their business.

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' had suddenly asked, "Do you mind if we take a look at your papers?"

    Ji Yuan promptly took out his permit as heughed, "Not at all. We are really here for personal business. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was also taken out his permit to hand over to the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan''.

    Ji Yuan was feeling a little awkward now; it was because he felt that they were grinding him more questions than Xiao Muhan.

    He was unsure if he was able to maintain the fact that they were not the Spirit Race for long if they continued to grind him questions after questions.

    When the extremely beautiful maiden looked at the papers from Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, she appeared to be startled but very soon, she was looking up at Ji Yuan with a wryly smile.

    This aroused the interest of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei who asked, "What''s wrong?"

    Even Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were startled; did <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The extremely beautiful maiden giggled as she showed the papers to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    "This¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei gasped softly as she looked nkly at Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan¡­

    They are male prostitutions?

    Ji Yuan weakly rolled his golden eyes to look at Xiao Muhan as though he was saying to him: Bro, if things go south, we''ll fight our way out of this mess. Just follow my lead¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden giggled as she quickly said to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "They are male entertainers. I wonder what they are capable of?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly nodded, "I was just surprised to find male entertainers from the other ces, that''s all¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted, "Yes, yes. We are male entertainers and we have plenty of talents. Hahaha¡­"

    Then he pointed at Xiao Muhan, "He is a good painter while I am a poet. We entertain people for a living. Haha¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei curiously looked at Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, "A poet and a painter?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said defensively, "I am also a good musician if you don''t like any poems. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was also smiling weakly, "Hahaha¡­ that''s right. Right¡­"

    The two of them began to say at the same time, "We are really male entertainers. You can test us¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei took an amusing look at the extremely beautiful maiden Han Muyuan who appeared to be equally amusing; it was because it was as though Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both saying, "We are really male prostitutions. You can test us¡­"

    All of a sudden Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei began to cough weakly and she had turned slightly ashen.

    With another quick look at Ji Yuan, she said weakly. "It is gettingte now. I must retire. You may go now¡­"

    "Erm, Fairy Concubine Xu. It seems that you are not feeling too well. Do you need any help?" Ji Yuan interrupted curiously.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei gasped softly, "You are able to help me?"

    Even the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' was look curiously at Ji Yuan, "Maybe he has a way and it is worth a try."

    Ji Yuan was stunned; he was only showing his concerns and they have thought that he may be able to help?!

    Do they really think that he is a miracle physician with the golden fingers'' skill; just a few rubs on their bodies and he would cure them of their ailments?

    Well, they are going to be disappointed today because he is unlike the cultivation hero in the cultivation stories that also happens to know profound medical skills¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' said with earnest sincerity, "If Master Ji Yuan is able to examine my mistress'' body and to find a cure for her ailment, we will surely be extremely grateful for your aid."

    Ji Yuan muttered with great bewilderment, "Examine your mistress'' body¡­ grateful to your aid¡­"

    He took a nk look at the beautiful astonishing Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei who was disying an earnest look at him.

    She was asking earnestly, "Master Ji Yuan is willing to help me? I won''t fault you even if you''ve failed to find a cure for my ailment."

    When Ji Yuan had heard that he would not be faulted for not finding a cure, he immediately beat his chest to say loudly, "Don''t worry. You can depend on me to do my very best for you."

    Xiao Muhan was stunned as he stared at Ji Yuan: You are just a fake physician. Do you really think that I did not know that you just want to run your hands all over her body instead?

    Ji Yuan stared back weakly at Xiao Muhan: It is not what you think it is.

    It was because the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' had disyed a sudden malevolent look at Ji Yuan when she suggested that maybe he had a way and it was worth a try.

    Although it was subtle but for a Sword Immortal like Ji Yuan, he could clearly read her brief intentions; in that brief opening, she had also revealed herself to be an extremely dangerous opponent that could not take no for an answer.

    This extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' was extremely dangerous and Ji Yuan''s danger sense was triggered off!

 Chapter 695 Examining The Body Of The Fairy Concubine Xu

    ?

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded at the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' and Maiden Flower Ju, "You may leave with this Master Xiao Muhan to another room first. I will like to be alone with Master Ji Yuan here."

    Xiao Muhan stared at Ji Yuan as though he was saying: Ji Yuan, don''t you dare to go overboard!

    Ji Yuan took a weak nce at Xiao Muhan as though he was saying instead: Bro, this is not what you think it is. You have better believed in me¡­

    He quickly added with an unpleasant thought: If things go south, I can definitely escape from this Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei who looks frail. But good luck escape from that two maidens that are with you. Hahaha¡­

    He added again: You can''t me from escaping alone. I''m not a chivalrous cultivation hero in the first ce and self-preservation is the only goal for all the cultivators¡­

    But that was only in Ji Yuan''s unpleasant heart as he enjoyed painting an evil scenario on what he would do to his friends.

    In reality, he was still reluctant to abandon any of his friends and that was why he had epted the challenge made by the Hundred Flower Pce Master in order to preserve all the celestial sects in the Five Heavens Peak in the past.

    The room was soon quiet now when Xiao Muhan had left with the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' and Maiden Flower Ju.

    So, it was only Ji Yuan and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei that were left in this room now.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei began to shift her body and she was now sitting in an upright as she waited patiently for Ji Yuan to examine her ailments.

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly to himself: I am just studying the physique of the Spirit Race for weakness. It is not what anyone else is actually thinking about. After all, knowing the enemy''s weakness is the key to tomorrow''s victory. Moreover, I am also a man of culture and a gentleman of the sword. Hahaha¡­

    He added hastily to himself: Therefore, I am going to disy my newly acquired golden fingers skill to massage all over her body and then she would be sofortable to the point of begging me to bang her. But I would say no because I am a man of culture¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said slowly to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, is this your first time here?"

    Ji Yuan''s thoughts were interrupted and he hastily replied, "Of course it is the first time that I''ve been here in this ce¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei began to shook her head, "No. I mean. Is this the very first time that you have been to our Spirit Divine Realm?"

    Ji Yuan was startled: how the heck does she knows that I am an outer world cultivator?! Do I look like or sound like one?! No way that she knows about this. This must be a test. That''s right. This is a test and I''m not going to fall into her trick¡­

    He quickly suppressed his bitter look and said with a straight face, "I am a Spiritas from Jedi City¡­"

    "I know that you are a celestial cultivator from the Celestial Realm." Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei interrupted softly.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Great mistress, you must be greatly mistaken¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said quietly, "If you are a Spiritas, then you must know that Fairy Concubine is my Spiritas noble title and as a Spiritas, you must bow down on your knees in front of me. Therefore, you must be a newly arrived and did not know our Spiritas'' customs."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had thought that she was a mere concubine judging from her title¡­

    How the heck did he get so lucky to meet a Spiritas noble in such a small tavern?!

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei continued to sigh, "Below my Spiritas noble rank, there is the Spirit Concubine. Above me is the Fairy Consort and above that is the Divine Consort."

    She cast a frail look at Ji Yuan, "Now, do you understand how I know that you are an outer world cultivator?"

    Naturally, this was not the only loophole that she knows but this was the only thing that she could reveal to Ji Yuan at this moment.

    Ji Yuan heaved a deep sigh; he really did not expect that he would get bust so quickly even before he couldy his ''golden fingers'' on Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    He began to ask curiously and he had a bitter look, "Since you''ve already known who I am then why did you have to invite me to examine you?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s frail countenance was looking a little flush as she answered with a soft sigh, "That is because you have a strong spiritual body. So maybe a strong spiritual person like Master Ji Yuan will be able to help me¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This was the very first time that someone had told him that he was a strong spiritual person¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Even Xiang Li who was pretending to be quiet could not help a chuckle: Big Brother, when did you be a strong spiritual person?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, what the heck are you doing here and not meditating?

    Xiang Li giggled: I am just taking a short break, you know. There can''t be all work and no y.

    Ji Yuan began to ponder: Hmm, Xiang Li is right¡­

    But he quickly turned to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei to say solemnly, "I am actually not a strong spiritual person nor do I have any strong spiritual body. Even though I really want to help you but I really can''t."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly said with a flush look, "Master Ji Yuan really did not want to allow me into your inner spiritual seas?"

    Ji Yuan was puzzled, "Allow you into my inner spiritual seas?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei slowly nodded and there was a pitiful look in her countenance, "I can sense something profound in your inner spiritual seas. If Master Ji Yuan allows me to harness some of your spiritual force in your inner spiritual seas, then it may cure the ailment that is affecting me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It is this simple? There is no need for me to examine you?"

    Xiang Li sighed: So, no more golden fingers¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned at Xiang Li: How the heck do you know my thoughts?

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei slowly nodded, "It is really that simple."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially with a soft sigh of relief, "Then why don''t you say so earlier? C''mon in then."

    He was actually thinking how he was going to hoodwink her with his ''godly medical golden fingers skill''.

    The frail Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was delighted, "You are really going to allow me into your inner spiritual seas?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he said firmly, "This is not an unreasonable requirement. If I can help to cure your ailment, why not then?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled shyly, "Thank you, Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    As she said that, there was a brilliant light as she had entered into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual conscience and had descended upon his inner spiritual seas.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled that this Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei actually have such a strong spiritual force and he could feel the impressive profound power of her strong spiritual force in his inner spiritual seas.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were startled by this ''new guest'' as they gasped inside of Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas.

    But Ji Yuan was even more startled when he saw a naked and an astonishing beautiful Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly descended upon his inner spiritual seas.

    He could really see her nakedness in all her glory.

    And his divine sense could even examine all parts of her nakedness as well¡­

    Xiang Li immediately said to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you are going to bang her in your inner spiritual seas?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 696 Ex-Divine Consort Xu Yifei

    ?

    Ji Yuan was startled when he saw a naked and an astonishing beautiful Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly descended upon his inner spiritual seas.

    In his inner spiritual seas, she was looking more spirited than what Ji Yuan had known.

    Ji Yuan could only mutter: This is really too sinful¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said musically and she was looking flushed; it was because she knows that Ji Yuan was looking at her.

    But she had no other choice.

    She was soon startled when she realized that there were two fairy spirits that were also in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas; Fairy Anyang and Fairy Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Hello there! Nice to meet you!"

    Fairy Anyang muttered to Xiang Li, "You are too friendly. You don''t even know her true intentions yet¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly said, "I meant no harm to your Master Ji Yuan."

    She quickly said with a flushed look, "Master Ji Yuan, may I examine your inner spiritual seas?"

    Now Ji Yuan could not really be seen by anyone in his inner spiritual seas since he was omni-present in his own inner spiritual seas.

    He could only make into be heard by replying, "Sure you can but just don''t get too disappointed. I''ll be busy doing other stuff in the meantime¡­"

    He was too busy examining Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s naked body with his divine sense, naturally.

    He had only said that in order to be as noble as possible.

    However, he was not aware that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei as a member of the Spirit Race, has a superior spirit sense that could prompt what he was doing with his divine sense.

    Ji Yuan had thought that since this was his inner spiritual seas, therefore his divine sense was everywhere and there was no way she would know that he was peeping at her.

    However, Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s divine sense was so extraordinary sharp that she was able to differentiate it.

    But she had something much more important to do first; she needed Ji Yuan''s permission first as this was his inner spiritual seas.

    A cultivator would always need to require the permission to enter another cultivator''s inner spiritual seas no matter how powerful they are.

    Well, that was in most usual cases.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei began to wave her fingers and all of a sudden, a huge golden pearl began to survive from within the vast oceans of spiritual seas.

    Ji Yuan was shocked; he did not know that he had such a golden pearl that was inside his own inner spiritual seas.

    But he was soon frowning and lookingme; it was because he had suddenly realized that this was the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that he had obtained not long ago.

    Fairy Anyang was muttering weakly, "I am sure our lord has totally forgotten about this. Because I am the only one that is doing all the work around here."

    Both Ji Yuan and Xiang Li conveniently pretended not to hear Fairy Anyang.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was gasping softly, "This is a rare immortal golden pearl from the Great Beyond. It is the same presence that I have sensed from the outside¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought with an ugly look of disappointment: So, she isn''t sensing my great spiritual body or person but this Golden Natal Divine Pearl¡­

    But he could resist asking, "I wonder why did Fairy Concubine Xu needs to harness the spiritual energies of this Golden Natal Divine Pearl? What is your ailment?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quietly said, "I was once at the Fairy Consort Spirit Realm. During my failed ascension into a Divine Consort, my spirit realm was dropped to the Fairy Concubine Divine Realm. Naturally this has also affected my cultivation too. And from then on, I can no longer cultivate anymore."

    That was a little lie actually.

    She did not want to tell Ji Yuan that she was once Divine Consort Xu Yifei and she was also once the most powerful Divine Consort in Snowy Pavilion City. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan began to sigh¡­

    Nothing is worse than having a crippled cultivation.

    It was no wonder why Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was looking quite frail.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was soon startled as she touched the Golden Natal Divine Pearl and even her voice was excited, "This immortal golden pearl is able to repair my damaged cultivation¡­"

    She began to close her eyes as she focused all her divine sense into the Golden Natal Divine Pearl as she started to harness the spiritual energies from it to try to repair her damaged cultivation.

    Time quickly passed.

    3 hours.

    6 hours.

    12 hours.

    24 hours.

    2 days.

    3 days.

    And finally, she had opened her eyes once again.

    She gasped softly, "It is done!"

    When Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was once again outside, she was looking rosy and was no longer frail looking.

    She took an awkward look at Ji Yuan, "Thank you, Master Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite awkward for he had seen everything there was to be seen, "It is nothing at all. I didn''t actually do anything at all."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said shyly, "I know that this is rude to ask about the origin of your Golden Natal Divine Pearl. But this is a great immortal profound treasure and you ought to treasure it. It doesn''t seem to be cultivated too much upon. If Master Ji Yuan were to cultivate it then your inner spiritual seas would surely be extremely profound."

    Ji Yuan had a weak look on his face as he muttered silently: Lazy Xiang Li and Anyang didn''t cultivate for me?!

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said with a mncholy look, "This is an extremely profound spirit immortal treasure and my Spirit Race is unlikely to spare you if they are aware of its existence."

    Ji Yuan began tough bitterly¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei continued quietly, "But if Master Ji Yuan is willing to trust me, I can put a spirit seal on it to conceal its presence from my Spirit Race."

    Ji Yuan answered, "Sure. But there is something that I am curious about. Since this is such a great treasure to your Spirit Race and you are also a Spiritas. Why didn''t you erm, kill me to get it?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled, "Maybe it is because I know that I can''t seize this great immortal profound treasure. If you are dead then this Golden Natal Divine Pearl will fly back to its original owner. Also, I don''t want to offend that great immortal that has given you this great immortal profound treasure¡­"

    She paused briefly before saying, "It seems that he has ced a profound tracker on you. Naturally if you are killed then my city will not be spared by this great immortal."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "If that is the case then I won''t be afraid of anyone trying to seize my Golden Natal Divine Pearl, am I right?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei shook her head and she looked mncholy, "That is only because you are lucky to have met me first. I used to have the strongest spirit divine sense in Snowy Pavilion City¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. The ''fun'' part of this SS Trial is just starting and this is the only beginning of this major story arc.

 Chapter 697 Divine Consort Tang Manni

    ?

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said quietly to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, you are free to stay in my tavern. I will reserve for you the best room and the best food. It will be free of charge for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he heard the words ''free of charge''. When ites to this word, it was not always ''free of charge'' when ites to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. He began to wonder how she was coping now.

    It was likely that she had already used the golden talisman to escape from this trial. After all, this trial was totally unfriendly to the maidens who had to seduce another maiden.

    This trial was a man''s paradise instead¡­

    When he had thought of this, he could not help making a subtle grin¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei took a slow flush look at Ji Yuan before saying, "You are not a Spiritas and therefore not from my Spirit Race. I''ll sent Maiden Flower Ju to brief you on the important matters of the city."

    The reason why she was looking a little flustered was because Ji Yuan was going to stay under the same roof as her and moreover, she knew in her heart that he had seen everything of her while she was in his inner spiritual seas.

    Earlier, she had actually hesitated to enter into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas because she knew that she would be entering in her nakedness into his inner spiritual seas.

    She had sensed something in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas that may be able to aid her recovery but that thing was firmly rooted inside his inner spiritual seas by an unknown immortal power. The only way for her to find this out was to enter his inner spiritual seas to take a look.

    That was also why she had asked him if he had a cultivation partner earlier. It was mainly because she did not want anyone to look at her sacred body.

    But this Ji Yuan was the most beautiful man that she had ever seen and he also exhibited a good character when he had intervened earlier when an outer world cultivator had criticized the food in this ce and even used her for overcharging.

    Now this was most unreasonable since the rates that she had been charging was so cheap!

    She was not wrong on this Ji Yuan too; only a noble celestial cultivator like him would have such a pure profound inner spiritual seas. Even though his inner spiritual seas may not look formidable but this was only a matter of time since he had the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to aid him.

    It was already rare enough for a great saint celestial cultivator to emphasis such a strong emphasis on cultivating the pureness of his inner spiritual seas instead of cultivating the cultivations strength of his soul sea first.

    But at the same time, she could also see that Ji Yuan had a good heart in his soul sea too and that he even had two spirit fairies following him.

    It was amon knowledge in the Spirit Divine Realm that spirit fairies would never follow a cultivator with an impure soul and moreover he had two of them following him.

    However, there was one spirit fairy by name of Xiang Li that had caught her attention. It was because while she was inside Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas for the past 3 days, she could feel that this Xiang Li was also aiding her to harness the spiritual powers of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl and to cultivate it.

    Actually, Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei did not know that Ji Yuan had once entered the Dream Trial to cleanse his impure inner spiritual seas.

    Ji Yuan had a sudden weird look as he looked at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei; it was because now that she was no longer looking frail, she was actually growing more and more attractive each time that he was looking at her and he was suddenly thinking of herplete nakedness in his inner spiritual seas¡­

    Just then, the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' had entered the room with a chuckle and she was apanied by Maiden Flower Ju and Xiao Muhan.

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' giggled softly, "While outside of this sealed room, I can already sense that mistress has made a full recovery. This Ji Yuan is really something. I don''t believe it¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was muttering unhappily and he was staring at Ji Yuan, "I don''t believe it either¡­"

    It was because he had been imagining Ji Yuan running his dirty fingers all over the Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei for the past 3 days and that due to some luck, Ji Yuan had actually seeded in ''curing'' her.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he stared back at Xiao Muhan: I know what you must be thinking. Actually, this isn''t what you are thinking. I''ve actually done nothing at all in the past 3 days¡­except for staring where I shouldn''t be staring but this is only looking and nothing else¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju was gasping, "Mistress, you''ve recovered now¡­"

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' turned to look at Ji Yuan with a most pleasant look and this waspletely different from her usual look that was 3 days ago.

    She smiled pleasantly at Ji Yuan, "I am afraid that you must take my mistress as your consort now¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had suddenly raised his hands to say firmly, "This, I am afraid that I can''t. I am only here to cultivate myself and have no interest to look for any cultivation partner¡­"

    That is a big lie; he has the intention to seduce the 4 Divine Consorts and have no time for the others.

    Hahaha¡­

    When Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had heard him, she appeared to be disturbed but she quickly said. "I shall not force Master Ji Yuan then¡­"

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' turned to stare angrily at Ji Yuan, "Why you! You have no idea what is good for you!"

    Ji Yuan gave her a most awesome look as he grinned, "Even if it is a most beautiful maiden like yourself that is standing in front of me, I am afraid that I have no interest in seeking you out as a cultivation partner. My Way is the Dao and the Dao is the Way of my cultivation life."

    He had a loftier target and that was to seduce all 4 Divine Consorts toplete his trial here.

    After all, this was a SS Trial and the rewards forpleting it must be insane good and he was determined to be the number 1 cultivator again after the disastrous failure of hisst previous trial.

    And he was going to prove to Xi Huangdi wrong in looking down upon him.

    Xiao Muhan''s jaws almost dropped when he had heard Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    It was because both Han Muyuan and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei were highly attractive maidens and were both great beauties¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    She had already raised her hands into a fist when Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei interrupted her, "Han Muyuan, stay here. I have things to discuss with you. As for Maiden Flower Ju, may you take Master Ji Yuan and his friend to their own rooms first."

    Ji Yuan respectfully bowed with his hands to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "Please forgive me for my disrespect. I have my own difficulties."

    With that, he had left the room with Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju.

    He simply had no time for any maidens except for the Divine Consorts!

    When the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' was alone with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, she began to say unhappily. "This Ji Yuan is too insolent! How dare he say such disrespect things in front of me!"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei also disyed a displeasure look on her, "Divine Consort Tang Manni, how dare you say that I am a widow? You have ruined my reputation with your words."

    The extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' or rather Divine Consort Tang Manni began to giggle, "Sister Yifei. I am just putting a test on him. Maybe he is just a lecherous outer world cultivator. But I really didn''t expect that he will be able to cure you of your aliment after such a long time. So, does it mean that Divine Consort Xu Yifei is going to be back to the pinnacle again?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei slowly said, "Don''t get distracted. I saw your expression earlier. You have almost lost your cool earlier."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni weakly said, "He has dared to disrespect me straight in my face¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei interrupted softly, "He has a good soul unlike the others. Not all the men are fascinated by looks alone."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed coldly, "Is it? He seems to forget that I am a Divine Consort and that he has to earn 100 Trust Points to get into my goodwill."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said quietly, "You are not the only one Divine Consort in Snowy Pavilion City. Don''t forget that there are 3 others."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni curled a slow smile, "Oh? You mean that he has just rejected the most friendliness Divine Consort so that he can get into the goodwill of the other 3 difficult Divine Consorts?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said, "He doesn''t know that you are a Divine Consort. And he isn''t a bad man too. Leave him out of your schemes."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni rolled her eyes before she chuckled, "Sister Yifei, I am only trying to help you. Maybe he is just a beast of a man and is only yacting with you. We clearly have an advantage and we know that these celestial cultivators are on a trial here."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was quiet.

    This was the truth; the celestial cultivators did not know that the Spirit Race had already known what their trial''s objectives were and they were also able to identify them with such a nce.

    Every 500 years, the celestial cultivators would visit the Spirit Divine Realm with their nefarious purposes.

    However, in the past 1000 years, after the capture of a celestial cultivator that spilled the beans loose on the trial that they were having; the Spirit Race was now aware of the intrusions of the celestial cultivators.

    The celestial cultivators had one fatal w that identified themselves and that was their unremovable ck rings that had betrayed their origins.

    That was also the reason why Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei knew that Ji Yuan was an outer world cultivator in the first ce but this was also a fact that she had concealed from him.

    As Divine Consort Tang Manni started to leave the room, she turned around for thest time to say coolly. "Sister Yifei, I know that this tavern is your haven and you will naturally try to protect them. I don''t really care if you give them our information. But I can''t promise you that I won''t harm them if they are outside of your sphere of protection. Also, I hope that you won''t reveal to them that I am the Divine Consort Tang Manni."

    When she had finished giving her warnings, she said slowly. "While I am grateful to this Ji Yuan that is able to cure my sister and to give her a hope but let''s not forget that he is not of our Spirit Race."

    With that, she had left the room.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei heaved a soft sigh when the room was closed, "Indeed the other 3 Divine Consorts are not easy to handle."

 Chapter 698 Ji Yuans First Target: Divine Consort Tang Manni

    ?

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled as she showed Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan their new rooms, "How is it? Do you like it?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "And these rooms are free for us? Absolutely free?"

    Maiden Flower Ju nodded with a smile, "Absolutely free. You''re now our honorary guests and we wouldn''t dream of charging you."

    Ji Yuanughed again as he patted Xiao Muhan, "Look brother. Do you think that you owe me for getting us free lodgings and food?"

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "I appreciate the free meditation room for cultivation but not for the food. Cultivators like us don''t really need to eat¡­"

    "These are spiritual foods and I''m sure that you will like it." Maiden Flower Ju giggled softly.

    Xiao Muhan weakly nodded but he quickly asked a solemn question, "So, Maiden Flower Ju. It is alright if we bring a maiden into our room, right?"

    Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

    Ji Yuan nearly puked out as he turned to stare with great bewilderment at his best friend Xiao Muhan, "Brother, what are you saying?"

    Xiao Muhan began to curse Ji Yuan in his heart: I need maidens. Have you forgotten about it? Or unless you have a solution for me. You have only saved Maiden Qin Shuang but not me. What a good friend you are.

    Ji Yuan hastily shoved Xiao Muhan aside as he said weakly to Maiden Flower Ju, "My Brother Xiao Muhan is a joker and he likes to tease you. Of course, he isn''t going to bring any maidens to the tavern. Hahaha¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju heaved a soft sigh of relief, "That''s good¡­"

    But she muttered a soft warning, "This ce isn''t the ce to bring in any maidens. If my mistress knows about this, she won''t be too happy."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Our rooms are not soundproof?"

    Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

    "It is soundproof naturally. Rest assure that you won''t be disturbed while cultivating."

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan began to say at the same time, "Hahaha¡­that is a relief¡­"

    Ji Yuan then patted Xiao Muhan with a grin, "Brother, you can do your business in your own room and don''t worry, you won''t be disturbed."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju asked curiously, "What business?"

    Ji Yuan quicklyughed, "y with his little brother."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, you even dare to goad over my misfortune?!

    Maiden Flower Ju asked curiously, "Master Xiao Muhan has a spirit fairy as his little brother?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan grinned in response, "That''s right."

    But he quickly said, "By the way, Maiden Flower Ju. Your mistress says we can ask you any questions about the city. It is now convenient to ask you?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Naturally, you may ask me any questions that please you."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he asked, "We know that there are 4 Divine Consorts in Snowy Pavilion City. May I know their names?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "That is an easy question for me to answer. The 4 Divine Consorts are Divine Consort Tang Manni, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er."

    Ji Yuanughed as hemitted their names into memories, "Out of these 4 Divine Consorts, which one is the easiest? I mean the friendliest?"

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "You are not after the Divine Consorts. Why did you want to ask so many questions about the Divine Consorts for? Have you forgotten about our gentleman agreement?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Brother Xiao Muhan, I am asking for you. Just in case you have forgotten to ask about it. Also, I am Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s benefactor now and it is only fitting that I''ll be the one that is asking all these questions for you."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Maiden Flower Ju began to hesitate; it was because none of the 4 Divine Consorts were easy to handle or friendly by nature.

    However, there was 1 Divine Consort that she did not want to offend and that was the Divine Consort Tang Manni; it was because she was in this tavern right now.

    So, she replied, "Divine Consort Tang Manni is the friendliest of the 4 Divine Consorts. She has the most pleasant character and is also the most beautiful."

    "Well said!" A feminine voice had said from behind Maiden Flower Ju and it was actually the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan''.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had seen her, "It is you. Well said or not, she isn''t referring to you."

    ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju had turned pale all of a sudden¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly moved to lean toward the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' and this forced her to lean her back against the wall¡­

    Ji Yuan put his right hand on the wall, brushing against her right ear as he said coolly. "This matter doesn''t concern you. I''m sure that you want to ask why I am so curious about the 4 Divine Consorts right?"

    This Maiden ''Han Muyuan'' was trying to pair him off with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei earlier and she was trying to sabotage his chance with the 4 Divine Consorts.

    Therefore, he had decided to be as badass as possible now so that she would not think of pairing him off with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei or herself.

    So, he began to stroke her face with his fingers while making a badass grin, "Unfortunately, I am only interested in wooing the 4 Divine Consorts. No matter how beautiful you are, you are nothingpared to a Divine Consort."

    Maiden ''Han Muyuan'': ¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju was gasping silently with great shock when she saw Ji Yuan touching the face of the Divine Consort Tang Manni aka Maiden ''Han Muyuan'' right in front of her eyes¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled too when Ji Yuan had suddenly cornered and pushed her to lean on the wall.

    Even before she could react, she was startled when he had suddenly begun to caress her face and was threating her.

    She was expecting a burst of anger to burst from her heart but instead, she felt her heartbeat was pacing very fast instead¡­

    Ji Yuan continued to grin at Han Muyuan, "Well, I''m going to approach Divine Consort Tang Manni and to get her to like me. As for you, I did remember telling you that I have no interest in seeking you out as a cultivation partner. My Way is the Dao and the Dao is the Way of my cultivation life. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden, she began to react by angrily pushing Ji Yuan away, "No one cares about your beautiful face either. You will surely regret your choice of words today."

    With that, she had stormed off angrily.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand wasughing jovially, "I will regret my choice of words? Never!"

    Then he turned to grin at Maiden Flower Ju, "What did you say just now about the Divine Consorts. Did you just say that the Divine Consort Tang Manni is the easiest to handle right?"

    A frightened Maiden Flower Ju tried topose herself as she said with a straight face, "Divine Consort Tang Manni is the easiest to approach¡­"

    Ji Yuan had already turned to Xiao Muhan as he grinned, "Therefore we should try to woo Divine Consort Tang Manni first."

    Then he turned to Maiden Flower Ju with a chuckle, "Is Divine Consort Tang Manni still unmarried and is she beautiful?"

    Maiden Flower Fu could only smile bitterly, "She is unmarried and is really very beautiful."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Unmarried you say? She is 10 times stronger than that flirtatious married Han Muyuan. Haha¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju weakly said but her voice was incoherent, "Maybe you want to try to approach the other Divine Consorts first¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. The Chapter is titled JY''s first target. But it also quickly ends as a failure. *Laugh*

 Chapter 699 The Spiritasâ€™ Spirit Race

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had also asked Maiden Flower Ju about other questions on the Spirit Race and the Spirit Divine Realm.

    They had to be careful with their questions lest they exposed their identities as an outer world cultivator.

    Ji Yuan thought: Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei looks like someone who can keep a secret. Therefore, she may be the only one that knows about our real identities.

    He did not know that Maiden Flower Ju was also aware of their secret outer world cultivator''s identity but she had kept quiet over it.

    She did not want to tell them that at this very moment, the Spirit Race was aware of the intrusions that were being made by the celestial cultivators.

    The Spiritas had another word for these celestial cultivators that formed the intrusions and they called them the ''griefers''.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan received many information about the Spirit Divine Realm even though none of the information was really confidential.

    They learnt that the Spirit Divine Realm was as vast as the Celestial Realm.

    Rather than having a particr celestial n to rule over a domain, the Spirit Divine Realm is divided into many city-states in which the Divine Consort is always the most influential.

    In any given city-state, there are usually a few Divine Consorts that rule the city-state together in a council.

    Strangely, the Divine Consorts are always the female Spiritas as the male Spiritascked the spiritual aptitude to reach the higher divine state of their cultivation spirit realm.

    At the same time, the male Spiritas are few and numbered by the females by 1:20.

    This also exined why there are so many female Spiritas in the city and they are not afraid of showing off their nudity.

    It is also mainly because the male Spiritas are considered to be inferiors.

    When Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had learnt of this part of the Spirit Race''s history, they were quite speechless; it was because they were men and they had little or no status in a Spiritas'' city state.

    They also learnt that there are 4 noble ranks to the Spirit Race; the Divine Consorts are the highest spirit cultivators in the city-state, followed by the Spirit Consorts, Fairy Concubines and the Spirit Concubines.

    When the Divine Consorts obtained vast amount of spiritual force or when they have reached the spiritual peak, they would have a chance to ascend to the Greater Spirit Divine Realm, simr to the Celestial Realm to the Immortal Realm.

    Every 500 years, a divine spirit portal to the Greater Spirit Divine Realm would also be opened and the Divine Consorts of each city-state would then vie for the opportunity to obtain the powerful spiritual force that would be bestowed upon them through the divine spirit portal.

    Maiden Flower Ju was about to answer more questions that were being asked by Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, such as where the Divine Consorts were, when she was being interrupted by a sound of a profound bell.

    She quickly said, "Please excuse me. I''ll be back soon. I have something urgent to attend to."

    Ji Yuan nodded and he was grateful for her information about the Spirit Race and the Spirit Divine Realm.

    So, he took out a bag of 100 gold coins and grinned, "This is a tip for you."

    Maiden Flower Ju looked stunned when she opened the bag and saw the gold coins that were inside, "This¡­"

    Xiao Muhan had taken a peek at the bag and he looked disgusted with Ji Yuan.

    It was because in the Celestial Realm, 100 gold coins are worth only 1 low grade spirit stone.

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly as he stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "1 low grade spirit stone¡­ it doesn''t evene close to a high grade spirit stone¡­"

    Ji Yuan said with a straight face, "You don''t have to thank me. Hahaha¡­ I don''t have a lot of spirit stones but I have plenty of gold coins."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju stammered weakly, "Thank you, Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    With a weird look that was upon Ji Yuan, she quickly exited the room.

    When Xiao Muhan saw that Maiden Flower Ju had exited the room, he angrily pulled Ji Yuan by his cor. "You are throwing away the faces of the cultivators in the Celestial Realm by being such a poor pauper. Gold coins, my foot!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Bruh. Don''t get so upset. Hahaha¡­ she deserves some tips for answering our answers¡­"

    "But not gold coins!" Xiao Muhan hit Ji Yuan on his face.

    Ji Yuan did not fight back as he was being a little guilty as well for tipping 100 gold coins that were only worth 1 low grade spirit stone.

    Ji Yuan tried to make a distraction out of this by saying awkwardly to Xiao Muhan, "Now that we got the names of the Divine Consorts. Why don''t we test out our trial rings?"

    Xiao Muhan slowly began to nod but not before he frowned a few more times at Ji Yuan.

    But eventually he was eager to test out their trial rings; he started by rubbing his trial ring by calling out the names of the Divine Consorts.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xi: 0 Trust Point.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun: 0 Trust Point.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er: 0 Trust Point.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni: -50 Trust Points.

    Ji Yuan began tough jovially and his stomach was aching with his continuousughter when he saw that Xiao Muhan had got a -50 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    "Hahahaha¡­ isn''t she supposed to be the easiest to approach? Brother Xiao Muhan, maybe you are just too ugly¡­ Hahahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed nonstop, "Maybe I got a 50 Trust Points with all the Divine Consorts because of my beautiful face¡­"

    He began to recite the names of all the Divine Consorts by rubbing his ck trial ring.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xi: -10 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun: -10 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er: -10 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni: -100 Trust Points.

    An unbelievable look greeted a shocked Ji Yuan, "This is impossible¡­ impossible¡­ I got a -10 Trust Points from 3 Divine Consorts and a -100 Trust Points from the easiest to approach Divine Consort Tang Manni?!"

    He did not know that Divine Consort Tang Manni had gone around to me him by warning the other Divine Consorts to be wary of a celestial cultivator called Ji Yuan.

    When Xiao Muhan saw Ji Yuan''s trust points with the Divine Consorts, he began tough so jovially that the entire room was shaking with his profoundughter. "-100 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni? Maybe she doesn''t like cultivators without a beard. Hahahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan was still stammering with shock and his confidence was suddenly crushed, "-100 Trust Points¡­ how is it even possible? I have to earn twice the amount of Trust Points to get to 100 Points? But the most impossible thing is, how the heck did Xiao Muhan get a higher Trust Points than me with all the Divine Consorts?!"

    Xiao Muhan continued tough jovially at Ji Yuan, "I have always know that I am more handsome and beautiful than Ji Yuan, Hahahahaha..."

 Chapter 700 Can We Find A Divine Consort In The Street?

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were now roaming the streets of Snowy Pavilion City.

    They were now checking the city as well as trying to meet a Divine Consort and making a good impression out of her.

    Ji Yuan looked ugly and he was brooding; it was because he could not believe that Xiao Muhan''s Trust Points are actually higher than him.

    There were hundreds of scantily dressed maidens on the streets but Ji Yuan was disinterested and he was still bewildered why he had lost to Xiao Muhan.

    On the other hand, Xiao Muhan was looking spirited and delighted as he looked at all the scantily dressed maidens around him.

    He wasughing softly while saying, "These maidens are all going to be in my paintings! The Trial Spirit is so good to me..."

    Finally, Ji Yuan had a sudden inspiration as he said aloud to himself: That must be it. It must be that Trial Spirit that is screwing me up. Didn''t she say that she will send me to the most difficult Divine Consort for my trial¡­

    Dang!

    This did not help to improve Ji Yuan''s mood at all.

    They were now hunting the streets in the hope that they would encounter a random Divine Consort.

    Now, meeting a Divine Consort in the city proved to be harder than they were expecting. It was because this was too random and a Divine Consort would never be in the streets without any of her entourage.

    They soon found out that they had another problem; even if they did see a Divine Consort, how the heck are they going to approach her without any excuse?

    In the end, even Xiao Muhan was also looking as sheepish as Ji Yuan as the hours went by as he realized the problems.

    This trial was getting harder than what they were expecting.

    Xiao Muhan asked Ji Yuan, "So shall we go back and ask Maiden Flower Ju instead like erm¡­ where the Divine Consorts are staying?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "And then? Storm in? We need an excuse to meet them, you know. Do you think that they will be around on the left and right in the street, waiting for us to chat with them?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frowning; it was because he had suddenly spotted the extremely beautiful maiden ''Han Muyuan'' in front of him as he walked into the bazaar area of the city.

    He hissed softly to Xiao Muhan, "This Han Muyuan is just everywhere! She must be following me and is only interested in my good looks!"

    Xiao Muhan hummed as he answered back softly, "You should just stick with her and leave the Divine Consorts to me. You really think that I didn''t know what you have been thinking? Don''t forget that I am your little worm in your stomach for more than 2 centuries!"

    Ji Yuan returned a bitter smile, "Howe you are still alive in my stomach after such a long time?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni aka Han Muhan wasughing cheerfully with a group of her followers when she had suddenly spotted Ji Yuan and she was gasping with disbelief that she would actually encounter him here in the streets.

    This must be fate?

    She was actually traveling incognito and only her followers know who she really was.

    Even the Spiritas in the streets would not be able to recognize her since she was donning a thin veil and was not in a spendid golden robe of a Divine Consort.

    However, Ji Yuan was able to recognize her at first nce, veil or no veil because he had been in close contact with her for a few days and he had recognized her signature scandals and earrings.

    A female follower immediately whispered to her when she saw her startled look, "Divine Consort, shall we clear the two ugly men that are in front of us?"

    But Divine Consort Tang Manni waved her back with a faint smile, "This won''t be necessary. I know the two of them¡­"

    Her heartbeat was suddenly pacing fast when she had suddenly spotted Ji Yuan; it was because no man had ever pushed her to the wall like what he did and had even molested her face.

    Since that day, she had been quietly cursing him but she did not want to return to the tavern to be humted by him again...

    But this was really unexpected and this lighten her mood even more. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    So, she walked forward with a wry smile. "Who do we have here? Isn''t this Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan?"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw her, "Maiden Han Muyuan. Surely this isn''t a coincident right? You must have been following us. How many times must I tell you that I am not interested in you. I am not interested in any married maiden. But married or not, it is unnecessary to use such devious scheme to get my attention. I am just too smart for that."

    The smiles that were on Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly disappeared and she was now staring coldly at Ji Yuan with a murderous look.

    Even the followers behind her were shocked¡­

    Xiao Muhan panicky said to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, I know that you got a rude mouth. But you don''t have to hurt her in this manner. Married or not, she is still a great beauty that deserves some love from you. You can always dump her after bedding her, you know¡­"

    "But this will drop straight into her trap, right?" Ji Yuan interrupted Xiao Muhan, "What if she turns up to be an evil dual cultivator that seeks to turn me into her depraved ve. Then won''t I be just like you¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni: ¡­

    I want to kill these two men¡­

    The only thing that was restricting Divine Consort Tang Manni now was that Ji Yuan was still within the sphere of influence of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and this was not her power influence.

    She was not exactly afraid of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei but she respects her as a half-step sister. Moreover, in the past, Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was known as one of the greatest Divine Consorts in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    The reason why she was a Divine Consort now was mainly due to her sister''s tutge.

    That was also the reason why she could visit Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern when it pleased her and also because why she was willing to call her ''mistress'' in front of her servants even though she was now a Divine Consort.

    No matter what her status is now, Xu Yifei is always her most beloved step-sister and it is not something their Spirit Titles is able to change.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly distracted by a hot pizza that was smelling really nice next to him.

    So, heughed, "You know I like my maidens, like how I like my pizza¡­"

    Xiao Muhan asked curiously, "Hot and ready?"

    "No," Ji Yuan frowned. "Freshly baked like a chaste maiden."

    He had purposely said this aloud so that Han Muyuan could hear him loud and clear.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was naturally upset when she had heard Ji Yuan and she was trembling.

    She shot him an icy look before she turned around to storm off with a burst of anger, causing her 8 female followers to quickly hasten after her.

    Xiao Muhan turned to Ji Yuan with a frown, "Is this really necessary? What if you have broken her heart? I can tell that she had an excited look when she saw you."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I have no other choice. I am not from this divine realm and can only stay for only 70 days. I don''t want to screw her future so it is better that I bust her illusions as quickly as possible. Also, I don''t want to have any attachments to this divine realm."

    This was the same reason why he had rejected the advance of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei as well even though he could tell that she was interested in him.

    He neglected to mention to Xiao Muhan that the Divine Consorts in this ce was an exception to his rule. It was because he had to earn 100 Trust Points from them as the main condition in this trial.

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Well, I hope that you don''t regret this."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Honestly, I don''t know the meaning of the word ''regret''. It is not even in my dictionary. Haha..."

    Xiao Muhan began to stroke his beard as he nodded, "Well, you''re speaking like a true cultivator for once now. A cultivator never regrets his decision, whether it is a bad or good thing. This is his karma."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he patted Xiao Muhan, "Brother Xiao Muhan, well said indeed like a wise cultivator! Any cultivator that regrets anything ought to eat shit instead!"

    Xiao Muhan took a slow look at Ji Yuan before he frowned, "You say this. I didn''t force you to say this."

    Ji Yuanughed as he patted heartily on Xiao Muhan, "Until today, no one has ever forced me to eat any shit. Haha..."

 Chapter 701 Divine Consort Sun Dingjun

    ?

    It was now almost dark.

    After walking in the city for a while, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were feeling a little lost; this city was bigger than what they had expected.

    And moreover, they were googling at the numerous hot maidens that were walking in the streets.

    They had noticed something that were peculiar and it did not dawn upon them the first time that they had stepped into the city.

    Minus the fact that there were 20:1 maidens to men in this city.

    The maidens here seemed to have aplete disregard for the men here and they found the men doing many of the menial work in the city too.

    Most of the few men in this city did not even dare to look at the beautiful bodies of the maidens here except for Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan.

    Xiao Muhan began to ask quietly, "You know. I notice that many of the maidens here like to put a metallic chain between their exposed butts. I wonder why this is the case?"

    Ji Yuan returned a badass grin, "Haha! Brother Xiao Muhan, you are indeed too young and too simple¡­"

    "You sound as if you are an expert. Don''t forget that I''ve a harem even before you do." Xiao Muhan interrupted and pointed it to him.

    But Ji Yuan ignored him and said, "They look really sexy with the metallic chain between their butts. When bedding them, their true beauty will be shown by the way their legs opened like a blossoming flower¡­"

    "Easier for banging, you mean?" Frowned Xiao Muhan. "Can you please talk like a man instead of beating around the bush."

    Ji Yuan growled, "I am not like an uncultured man like you. I am the Great Poet Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a maiden in splendid golden silk that was flying overhead them and this startled Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan; it was because she was really flying through the air above them just by exercising her profound animus.

    Their first thoughts were: Is she an immortal?

    But their thoughts were quickly dispelled when the maidens next to them were shouting excitingly, "It is the Divine Consort Sun Dingjun!"

    "Why is she here?"

    "Did she find the rebels?"

    Ji Yuan saw that while the Divine Consort Dingjun was dded with a golden metallic vest but much of her body was still nude; it seemed that this was actually the dressing custom here in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    He was gasping now because Divine Consort Sun Dingjun looked as like a peerless maiden with soft golden flocks of long hair and exactly the type that he liked.

    She had a kind of holiness beauty in her and had an elegant mannerism.

    He was suddenly spirited as he tugged Xiao Muhan, disying a grin. "Brother, did you see that? That is Divine Consort Sun Dingjun. We did manage to find a Divine Consort in the streets today. Now that we have seen her here, she is our target then¡­"

    "My target. Not yours." Interrupted Xiao Muhan unhappily. "You seem to have forgotten that all the Divine Consorts are mine to seduce."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am only trying to help you, you know."

    Xiao Muhan said firmly, "No thanks. You''ll only make it worse with your -10 Trust Points."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    I havepletely forgotten about my -10 Trust Points¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was blinking his golden eyes; it was because his sharp eyes seemed to have caught sight of the nakedness that was beneath the revealing metallic skirt of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had suddenly flown thunderously into a house''s top, crashing through it and there were profound energies rippling inside the house.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "Is she attacking someone in that house over there?"

    And he had hastened his movement together with Xiao Muhan to take a closer look at the house in front of them.

    They were not the only ones; many of the onlookers were also doing the same.

    But all of a sudden, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were startled to see dozens of Spiritas men rushing out of the house and they were shouting loudly, "Run! Divine Consort Sun Dingjun is here!"

    These Spiritas men quickly rushed in the direction of Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan, much to their startled surprise.

    The Spiritas maidens in the streets began to shout angrily, "The men are escaping! Kill them all!"

    Ji Yuan could not believe what he was hearing as he muttered in bewilderment, "What the heck did these maidens want to kill the men?"

    All of a sudden, several Spiritas men had caught hold of Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan in the darkness and they were shouting at them. "Don''t be an idiot and stand there. Divine Consort Sun Dingjun has discovered our hide-out and she will kill us all. Run along with us!"

    Ji Yuan actually did not want to run but when he saw that Xiao Muhan was running along with them, he was stunned. "What the heck?!"

    Just as he was hesitating, he could suddenly sense powerful profound energies had exploded behind him and several more Spiritas men were being killed.

    The profound power of these profound energies was on par with any great saintesses in the Celestial Realm!

    Also, many of the Spiritas maidens were now attacking the Spiritas men that were around and they were shouting, "Divine Consort Sun Dingjun has found the den of these rebels. We ought to help her¡­"

    Ji Yuan had a bad feeling if he continued to stay so he quickly run after Xiao Muhan and the rest of the Spiritas men as well.

    Because it was now dark and it was futile to exin to the bloodlust maidens that were attacking all the men, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were forced to run as fast as possible along with the other Spiritas men.

    Ji Yuan had never seen so many Spiritas men before and they numbered almost 300 hundred.

    Who could have expected that the small house would actually contain a hideout of so many Spiritas men?

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: What are so many men doing in a small house like this? Are they having an orgy or something?

    All of a sudden, they seemed to have run into a small alley and one of the men in front of them was shouting, "Over here! We have another hide-out."

    Ji Yuan found himself following these men and Xiao Muhan into a secret wall in this small alley¡­

    He was cursing softly, "I am supposed to be winning over Divine Consort Sun Dingjun. Why am I trying to run away from her?"

    ---------------------

    Author Note.

    1. This is the second Divine Consort that Ji Yuan has met.

 Chapter 702 Cult Of The True Devil God (1)

    ?

    The new hideout was dimly lit and was filled hundreds of men; there were no maidens because the Spiritas maidens were the enemies of the rebel Spiritas men.

    As more and more of them regrouped in this hideout, the angry men were alsoining bitterly to one another:

    "Kill all the maidens¡­"

    "These maidens have been lording over us for thousands of years¡­"

    "We can''t take this lying down¡­"

    "These decadent maidens have been destroying the Spiritas for thousands of years¡­"

    "How did Divine Consort Sun Dingjun discover our hideout?"

    "She is really vicious!"

    "This Divine Consort Sun Dingjun is really strong¡­"

    "I can''t win her¡­"

    "I will make strip this slut of a Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and make her into my depraved ve the next time¡­"

    "Next time we shall parade Divine Consort Sun Dingjun in all her naked glory in the streets¡­"

    "A fitting punishment for Divine Consort Sun Dingjun would to make her serve all the men here¡­"

    "Did you even try to fight her at all? I saw you running at the very first instant¡­"

    "We salute the fallen men that have fallen into the debauchery of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun¡­"

    Ji Yuan was bitterly smiling at Xiao Muhan and the two of them were shaking their heads with soft sighs of bitterness; how in the heavens did they even get involved with the rebels?

    Their only other option was to stay in the dark streets but then they would get misunderstood as one of the rebels in the darkness.

    Also, they did not want Divine Consort Sun Dingjun to have a bad impression of them and affect their Trust Points.

    So in the end, they had decided to flee away from the scene like the rebels did.

    It just that they did not expect that they would flee into a new hideout like this.

    Xiao Muhan whispered to Ji Yuan, "How do we get out of here?"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly to Xiao Muhan, "I was following you¡­"

    Xiao Muhanughed weakly, "That is not the point now. The most important thing now is not to get discovered and escape out of here alive. There are too many of them now¡­"

    "I can tell that they aren''t really good in fighting." Ji Yuan interrupted with a bitter look.

    Xiao Muhan kicked Ji Yuan with an angry look, "Why are you so stupid Ji Yuan? There are always some concealed fighters in this ce. Even if you are a Sword Saint, you can''t fight them all."

    Ji Yuan whispered with a mocking look, "I''m d that you''ve remembered that I am a Sword Saint. I am just worried about you and not about me¡­"

    Their conversations quickly escted into a war of words.

    But in this ce, they looked as normal as the other Spiritas men and everyone else was alsoining loudly to someone else.

    So, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan quickly mingled with the crowd and did not receive any unwanted attention to themselves.

    All of a sudden, an elderly old man had stepped in front of them and there was a sudden silence; this elderly old man seemed to havemanded a great deal of respect among the Spiritas men and he seemed to be their leader.

    Indeed, many of the men were now shouting excitingly.

    "It is Elder Xie Tianzun! He is here!"

    "Elder Xie Tianzun is our current leader¡­"

    "I didn''t expect for him to grace our presence¡­"

    "Are we going to make our counter-attack on the Divine Consorts anytime soon?"

    "The Spiritas Resistance now is now on full swing!"

    "Long life Elder Xie Tianzun!"

    "Elder Xie Tianzun is very ancient. He has been leader as long as I can remember¡­"

    "He has saved uncountable of us from being the depraved ves of the maidens¡­"

    The elderly old man who was also called Elder Xie Tianzun began to cough weakly before he raised his profound voice to say, "Once again, the evil Divine Consorts have destroyed one of our hideouts. But rest assured of this, we are like vermin that can never be trulypletely eradicated!"

    Many of the men were now shouting with great fervor, "We are the vermin! We can never be eradicated!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes to look bitterly at Xiao Muhan before he whispered weakly, "I am not any vermin¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was also weakly saying, "Same here. We are not of the same kind as them¡­ we are just a different type of vermin you know¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to sigh and there was a deep regret in his old eyes, "I still remember the good golden days of our great Spirit Race when the Divine Lords dominated the Spiritas Cities and there were still no Divine Consorts¡­"

    Many of the men were greatly moved and they were shouting, "Down with the decadent Divine Consorts!"

    Elder Xie Tianzun continued, "With every generation, the men of the Great Spiritas Race have to bear witness to the continued decadent life that are brought to us by the Divine Consorts. And that is why we have to fight back. It is now or never! For the glory of our Great Spiritas Race!"

    Many of the men were now shouting loudly, "For the glory of our Great Spiritas Race!"

    Elder Xie Tianzun raised his fists and he was trembling loudly, "One day, even our true god the True Devil God shall return with his immortal soul to the Spirit Divine Realm and we shall make all the maidens bend their knees in front of front of us! We want them to beg us for their mercies but we shall not grant it to them until they are willing to pay with their depraved nakedness for an equivalent price!"

    Many of the men were now shouting excitingly, "We shall make the maidens bend their knees before us! We shall make them pay with their depraved nakedness!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at Xiao Muhan, "The True Devil God?!"

    Xiao Muhan returned a curious looked at him, "This is a cult?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that Xiao Muhan had never been to the Goddess Star Pce so he muttered weakly, "Yea. This seems to be a cult¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to sigh deeply, "I am getting old now and can no longer lead our great Spiritas Resistance against the Divine Consorts. Therefore, I am thinking of stepping down to allow a new and energetic blood to lead us in our great battle against the Divine Consorts¡­"

    "Unfortunately for us, we have been discovered by Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and many of our brilliant leadership have now been either killed or captured¡­"

    Then he raised his old voice to say aloud, "Therefore this is what I am going to do to announce our new leader. Only those of you that are here today are eligible to be elected as the new leader of our Spiritas Resistance¡­"

    Immediately many of the men were excited and were now talking among themselves with great excitement¡­

    Elder Xie Tianzun said aloud, "Whoever can donate the most high grade spirit stones to our great cause shall be the new leader! As you know, we need funding for our hideouts and to run our operations¡­"

    "¡­And of course, 8 others of you that have also donated the most shall be the new elders and you shall assist the new leadership."

    Immediately all the men were buzzing excitingly!

    This was a great chance for them to advance in their ranks.

    Immediately, there were great shouts from all the men attempting to make their donations.

    "7000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "10 000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "3 000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "30 000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "5000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Ji Yuan giggled at Xiao Muhan, "I wonder how rich you are?"

    Xiao Muhanughed as he shouted jovially, "100 000 high grade spirit stones!"

    He was determined to be the new leader of this group.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Immediately all the men were gasping with shock; it was because they had struggled to earn only a pittance amount of spirit stones under the oppression of the Spiritas maidens and could not afford to donate more.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to Xiao Muhan, "You are serious?"

    Xiao Muhan patted at Ji Yuan and he was grinning at him with a cunning look, "Ji Yuan, you are still too young, too simple. Once I am the new leader then I would have ess to the entire treasury. Then my investments will pay off by itself. This is how I am always richer than you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    ?

    Elder Xie Tianzun was impressed by Xiao Muhan''s show of great wealth and he was smiling, "I didn''t know that we have quite a rich man in our group. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was alsoughing jovially, "This is really nothing. It is my pleasure to contribute to the Spiritas Resistance."

    Elder Xie Tianzunughed heartily as he said to all the men that were looking at Xiao Muhan, "Everyone would have a chance to contribute to the cause of the Spiritas Resistance too. What is your name, young Spiritas?"

    Xiao Muhanughed heartily as he proimed himself, "Xiao Muhan. You may call me Master Xiao. Haha¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun gave Xiao Muhan a big thumb up before he pointed at Ji Yuan, "How about the man that is standing next to you? How much are you donating to the cause of our great Spiritas Resistance?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish as he took out 100 gold coins as donation, spilling his share on the table in front of everyone. "I still have more gold coins if you value my cause. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly to himself: Why did I have to know him in the first ce? He isn''t ashamed of taking out his gold coins that are only worth a puny 1 low grade spirit stone. It isn''t even worth a fraction of 1 high grade spirit stones!

    Elder Xie Tianzun and all the men were now staring nkly at the gold coins that were at the table¡­

    Ji Yuan was feeling awkward when he saw the looks that were on their faces. "Hahaha¡­ this is too little?"

    Then he took out another 100 gold coins and put it again on the table, "Erm, is this enough now?"

    He still got several thousands of worthless gold coins because he always has some gold coins for paying his wine tabs.

    Elder Xie Tianzun blinked his eyes as he stammered hastily, "It is¡­ more than enough¡­"

    Everyone was gasping with great shock¡­

    Ji Yuan awkwardly answered, "I am d that this is enough. Haha¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun stared at him for a moment before he asked, "Young Spiritas, what is your name?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to be infamous so he quickly said with an awkward look, "Yuan Ji is my name."

    Elder Xie Tianzun slowly said, "So Master Yuan Ji, I think that you are the most fit to be our leader now¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he blinked his eyes: What did he just say?!

    Xiang Li was perplexed: What?! Big Brother is most fit to be leader of these men? But these are men and not maidens. Why did Big Brother suddenly have to be interested in men now?

    Fairy Anyang could not believe what she was hearing from Xiang Li as she meditated upon the Golden Natal Divine Pearl: What has just happened?

    All the men were loudly talking among themselves now¡­

    "This Yuan Ji is so rich?!"

    "I didn''t know that we have such a rich Spiritas in our midst¡­"

    "I don''t think that I have ever seen him before¡­"

    "He must be working his ass off from these depraved maidens and that is why we did not notice him previously¡­"

    "He literally donates all his wealth to our great cause¡­"

    "Such a noble Spiritas¡­"

    "Our great spiritas resistance now has a glimmer of hope of seeding now¡­"

    "All hail Master Yuan Ji¡­"

    "No, you should address him as our Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji now¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to pat heartily on Ji Yuan as he tried to struggle with his old voice amidst all themotions.

    "I am old now and I think that none of you would be able toe out with a grander donation than Master Yuan Ji here? If not, then he shall be our new Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji to oppose the Divine Consorts. All hail to Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji and our True Devil God!"

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "Did I donate a lot?! How much is 1 gold coin equivalent to 1 high grade spirit stone?"

    Even Xiao Muhan was stunned and he was secretly asking the same as well; like Ji Yuan, he was in disbelief.

    Howe Ji Yuan got to be the rebel leader instead of him?!

    1 million high grade spirit stones is really worth a lot!

    Elder Xie Tianzun sighed, "The price of gold is ever increasing in the Spirit Divine Realm. It can only go up and never go down¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He started to inspect the weight of the golden coin with his spirit sense, "Each of these gold coins is worth 1 million high grade spirit stones."

    When he had announced it, everyone was shocked.

    Xiao Muhan was stunned; Ji Yuan had just donated 200 times what he had just donated?

    Ji Yuan almost fainted; did he just donate 200 million high grade spirit stones away?

    All of a sudden, he had remembered the startled look that was on Maiden Flower Ju''s face; it was not because she had thought that Ji Yuan was too cheapskate but he was really too generous¡­

    Now all this had suddenly made sense to him.

    This is the Spirit Divine Realm and not the Celestial Realm.

    In the Spirit Divine Realm, spirit stones must be reallymon but on the other hand, metals like gold which aremon in the Celestial Realm is quite rare around here.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning now; it was because he still has several thousands of these gold coins around in his spatial storage¡­

    What if he were to exchange his useless gold coins into high grade spirit stones instead? Then, won''t he be the richest man in Snowy Pavilion City instead?

    Maybe he can even drown the 4 Divine Consorts with his filthy rich newfound wealth?

    This was the first time that Ji Yuan felt so filthy rich!

    Elder Xie Tianzun was smiling now, "Let have our new Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji to make his grand speech to us then!"

    Ji Yuanughed heartily as he turned to look at the 300 men that were presented.

    "From now on, our great spiritas race is going to enter into a new era under my charge. We definitely can''t allow these depraved maidens to look down upon us or toy with us anymore¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to grin but it was more like showing off to Xiang Li and Anyang.

    He said loudly to all, "I don''t believe that any of the 4 Divine Consorts will not be moved by my wealth. Everyone has a hidden price that they will be willing to surrender their bodies to. I am going to make the 4 Divine Consorts kowtow between my legs. Haha¡­"

    He was actually thinking more on his trial quest than fighting for the male spiritas.

    Luckily for him, his thoughts went unnoticed since they all had the same objectives anyway.

    All the men except for Xiao Muhan were now shouting with great fervent, "All hail Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji! All hail Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji!"

    Ji Yuan shouted heartily amidst all the hails, "From now on, we will be the griefers that shall make all the maidens and Divine Consorts to grief in Snowy Pavilion City!"

    Xiao Muhan was muttering almost incoherently to himself: Ji Yuan, are you yacting too well and forget our disparity with the Divine Consorts?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was truly delighted and he was patting Ji Yuan heartily, "Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji, from now onward, you are also the Cult Leader of the True Devil God Sect."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You mean I have a religious duty as well?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun chuckled in his old voice, "That''s right. As our Cult Leader, it is also your duty to burn the Divine Consort as a burning sacrifice to appease the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "What if I fail to do so?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun solemnly said, "Then we have no other choice but to burn you instead. That is how we have lost ourst Great Rebel Leader."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When Xiao Muhan had heard Elder Xie Tianzun, he began to mutter with a soft sigh of relief. "Luckily I am not the Great Rebel Leader or the Cult Leader¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun continued to say solemnly to Ji Yuan, "It is considered to be a great honor to be sacrificed to the True Devil God. Only the noblest souls among us can revive the True Devil God one day and as cult leader, your soul will naturally be the most noblest of us all. When the True Devil God returns to our Spirit Divine Realm, you will know that your sacrifices will not be in vain¡­"

    J Yuan began to curse loudly but silently: How the heck do I know if my sacrifices will not be in vain when I am already dead?!

 Chapter 704 Divine Consort Dongfang Xin (1)

    ?

    "Presumptuous!"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was just blown her tops after missing the chance to eradicate the sneaky rebels.

    A group of her followers were awkwardly looking down onto the floor of the messy streets in the aftermath of their raid.

    Their operations hadsted until dawn.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun hummed coldly, "Nowadays these rats seem to be getting better in running."

    All of a sudden, she was frowning; it was because she had spotted an elegant maiden with a light purple hairstyle that was approaching with her female followers.

    This was her arch rival, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin an upper 7th Spirit Realm cultivator.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was only at the middle 7th Spirit Realm and therefore she tried to suppress her anger by smiling, "So who do we have here?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin curled a smile, "Divine Consort Sun Dingjun is getting more and more beautiful with each passing day."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun snorted lightly, "So is Divine Consort Dongfang Xin."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "You know. You are too hastily in hunting down the rebels and should have waited for your followers to arrive. These rebels are not weak and they have setup several rms in their hideout to warn them of any intrusions. Better yet, you should have wait for me to arrive."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun returned a cold look, "By then, it will be dark and they will not be there anymore. And you are several hours toote. I have to strike them while there is still a little light."

    There was a soft chuckle from Divine Consort Dongfang Xin as she answered, "I got a little matter to settle first. Hence, I am a little toote."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun hummed, "Hmph. What can be more important than eradicating these rats from Snowy Pavilion City?"

    "Hehe¡­" Divine Consort Dongfang Xin giggled, "Have you forgotten about the intrusions of the celestials that will ur every 500 years? I''ve just killed one of the celestial griefers. He is an evil dual cultivator that thinks that he can turn a female spiritas of our Spirit Race into his living furnace. But unfortunate for him, his evil dual cultivation arts are useless against our Spirit Race¡­"

    She paused to ponder, "What is his name again? Gao Deyi? It seems that he is a peaked great saint of the celestial race and he called himself grand elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun hummed softly, "Show off. That celestial is just unlucky to have fallen into your hands. With you and Divine Consort Tang Manni around, do I even need to be bothered about the celestial griefers?"

    Like Dongfang Xin, Divine Consort Tang Manni is also at the upper 7th Spirit Realm.

    Therefore, the two of them are good enough to handle the celestial intrusions of these griefers. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    There is another Divine Consort by the name of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and she is only at the middle 7th Spirit Realm. However, she is a good friend of hers and the two of them are weaker Divine Consorts that choose to ally together against Divine Consort Tang Manni and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    She sarcastically said, "Have you seen the message that is from Divine Consort Tang Manni? She told us to wary of a celestial by the name of Ji Yuan."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was suddenly smiling, "s that. I did recall. She says she want him alive so that she can deal him her personal punishment. But I think it looks a little fishy to me."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin rolled her beautiful eyes, "Given Divine Consort Tang Manni''s profound cultivation, can someone really escape from right under her nose? Unless of course, this Ji Yuan is actually much stronger than that Gao Deyi."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun hummed coldly, "These celestial griefers are few in numbers and this is none of my business. I have better things to do than hunting the griefers. I am more concerned about hunting the new rebel leader of the evil cult of the true devil god. These depraved and degenerated evil men of this evil cult must be fully eradicated from our Snowy Pavilion City."

    With that she had turned around and was heading to the opposite direction.

    Her female followers quickly began to follow after her.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin giggled softly behind her, "Only one of us will be allowed to receive the spirit power of the great spiritas in the uing days. It is better than you pick a champion from among the griefers instead. The rebels are too useless to be of any use to you."

    "I do appreciate your advice but this is my personal choice. I will rather prefer to use one of my kind instead." Divine Consort Sun Dingjun answered coldly without turning her back.

    In just a few moments, she had left the messy street with her followers.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin slowly turned to one of her female followers to ask, "Just now, did you say that you have identified another of these griefers in our city?"

    This female follower was called Spirit Concubine Ling Zhuqing and she answered with a smile, "Indeed Divine Consort. He called himself by the name of Xi Huangdi and we''ve been following tabs on his movements."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin asked curiously, "How is he?"

    Spirit Concubine Ling Zhuqing answered with a soft chuckle, "He looks like a lecherous cultivator. This may be his weakness but he isn''t an evil dual cultivator like thest one."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin slowly began to smile, "That is good. We should arrange a meeting between the two of us then. Since he wants my Trust Points and I need him to gain the great spiritas profound power, this is something that we can fully make use of."

    Spirit Concubine Ling Zhuqing giggled, "So which trick are we going to use for this Xi Huangdi?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin pondered with amused look as she put her fingers on her lips, "So shall I be a damsel in distress? Or a lovelorn maiden that is in awe of his profound cultivation?"

 Chapter 705 Divine Consort Dongfang Xin (2)

    ?

    Xi Huangdi was now on the second floor of an open tavern where he could see the streets below and he was embracing a lovely female spiritas.

    This lovely female spiritas was giggling and toasting him small cups of wine, "Master Xi. You''re so handsome as well as so wealthy."

    Xi Huangdi was pleased because he had been banging this lovely female spiritas for the past 3 days and she did not disappoint him.

    Through her, he had also known several customs about the female spiritas; for example, if he wants to bang them then he had to fork out 10 000 high grade spirit stones.

    One must know that the average male spiritas can only earn 1 000 high grade spirit stones in the city in a single month.

    Now this may seem a lot but it is not.

    It is because spirit stones are almost everywhere in the mountains of the Spirit Divine Realm and therefore it is not worth a lot in their eyes.

    100 000 high grade spirit stones may seem a lot in the eyes of the celestials here but it is like 1000 high grade spirit stones in this ce.

    In the past 3 days he had already spent 100 000 high grade spirit stones on this lovely female spiritas and his lodgings.

    He felt a little poor now.

    This ce was like a running tap that drained his great wealth very quickly.

    In this ce, if you are a maiden then you have a 90% discount in everything but if you are a man then you have to pay everything in full.

    Touching a maiden in public will also set back the man 1000 high grade spirit stones as a fine. If a man protests against the fine then the other maidens will then be able to humiliate him in public and thrown him into the dungeon.

    Even banging a maiden will set back a man by a lot and they have to pay the full 10 000 high grade spirit stones.

    That was why most of the men that he had seen were doing menial work or were guards while the maidens were leisurely roaming the streets.

    Only the rich men have any real status in the city but they are few in between because their spirit stones would drain very fast once they were in contact with the maidens.

    Whether they like it or not, the maidens would invite themselves to please the rich men and in no time, even these rich men would lose their wealth.

    Just like Xi Huangdi had no problem attracting this lovely female spiritas as long as he had the spirit stones to flirt with her.

    But there was a slight problem now and that was his spirit stones were diminishing at a fast rate now and there was no way for him to earn any spirit stones¡­

    This ce did not even have a gambling den and even the jobs here all required a work permit.

    This work permit was actually the same as the paper that first allowed him into the city and he had put his upation as a visitor; he could only spend spirit stones here and not allowed to find any jobs that could earn him spirit stones.

    And until today, he had no idea how to approach a Divine Consort!

    But he had a small constion though and that was his main rival Ji Yuan was probably having a most difficult time as well since he looked like a poor pauper.

    He could even bet with his life that this pauper Ji Yuan would soon be sleeping in the streets!

    With that, he began to grin at the misery that would be facing Ji Yuan.

    But he was soon frowning again; it was because he had only 100 000 high grade spirit stones that were left.

    It may seem a lot but in this ce, it was not.

    He remembered he had once spit on the ground on the first day and he was fined 10 000 high grade spirit stones. He was told that if he breaks any rules again then the fine would be increased by 10 folds the second time.

    If he fails to pay up then he would be entering the diator arena to fight for the amusements of the spiritas maidens in the city.

    Even raising his arrogant voice against a spiritas female here in public is not allowed and he was fined 100 000 high grade spirit stones for that on his second day.

    And he was told that his next fine would be 1 million high grade spirit stones¡­

    This ce was impossible to survive for even 70 days¡­

    He was sighing in thepany of this lovely female spiritas when all of a sudden, he had spotted a beautiful maiden with purple hair and she was dded in golden mystique robe as she walked slowly up the stairs to the second floor of the tavern where he was at.

    He looked a little startled because this beautiful maiden had a powerful spiritual animus around her and instantly, he knew that she must be a high ranking noble spiritas in the city.

    What was more, she was also apanied by 8 maidens in loose translucent robe behind her.

    The lovely maiden that was sitting in close intimacy with Xi Huangdi had suddenly ceased her giggling and she had immediately stood up to greet respectfully, "Divine Consort, your servant here pays my humble respects to you."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xi Huangdi was startled: She is a Divine Consort?!

    He could feel his face twitching; it was because he was wondering if his identity as a celestial had been found out?

    This was impossible right? He looked exactly like a rich spiritas man from the other cities¡­

    This beautiful Divine Consort began to smile warmly as she looked at Xi Huangdi, "I am Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, in case you are wondering who I am."

    She proceeded to exin nonchntly, "I have thought of many ways on how to approach you but then I have decided on the most direct approach to talk with you."

    Xi Huangdi weakly asked, "You know me?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "You are Celestial Xi Huangdi and judging by your minute profound animus, you are also a great saint as well."

    Xi Huangdi was shocked; he has not disyed his profound animus while he is here but yet his true cultivation realm is already known to this Divine Consort?! Just how powerful is a Divine Consort?!

    But he stood his ground and looked calmly back at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin; thousands of years of cultivation had taught him to remain calm even under the grimmest of all situations.

    He was thinking: I am a great saint and I may not lose¡­

    It was as though Divine Consort Dongfang Xin could read his mind and she was smiling, "Are you thinking that you would be able to fight me?"

    All of a sudden, she had released her golden spirit animus and a golden clock was formed from her profound aura.

    Xi Huangdi tried to move but he was startled that he could barely muster his profound strength.

    Before he knew what was happening, he was kicked down from the second floor of the tavern in a thunderous crash that imploded loudly in the streets below!

    Many of the onlookers in the street below were startled and had gathered to take a look; they were wondering if the man that had crashed into the street from above the tavern was in fact a rebel?

    Xi Huangdi had coughed out golden blood despite the protection of his profound animus cultivation when he had crashed with a furious loud sound, sending debris to fly all around him.

    This Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had just shown him who had the superior profound strength and even profound animus instantly!

    As he tried to shake off the debris, he had renewed his profound strength to get off the ground. But it was not to fight back with his hidden divine sword but to escape from her!

    He had already decided that she was indeed very dangerous but luckily for him, he was in an open space now and he was confident that he could be able to make his escape...

    But Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had suddenly appeared in front of him and had lifted her naked leg to deliver a powerful profound kick at him, sending him to crash thunderously through the walls of a shop!

    Xi Huangdi was shocked; under her simple profound attack, he actually could not even muster any of his profound strength to resist her at all?!

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled coldly as she cornered him to a wall, "I must say that you are weaker than some of the celestial great saints that I''ve seen in the past. At least some of them have the guts to raise their divine swords against me."

    Xi Huangdi: ¡­

    He coughed another bout of golden blood before he struggled to speak weakly, "It is not that I am weak, right? It has to do with your spirit animus that seems to be slowing me down."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin disyed a wryly smile, "Not bad. At least you are able to see through my spirit profound attack. Therefore, you are smarter than most¡­"

    She paused to roll her eyes before she chuckled, "You have two options now. First, fight for me as my champion in the Spiritas Pavilion Tower. Or die."

    Xi Huangdi weakly said, "You are¡­so much stronger than me and you need me¡­as your champion?!"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "I can''t participate of course. None of the Divine Consorts are able to. That is why we need to send our champions to fight in the once every 500 years contest to gain the spiritual power from the Great Spiritas in the Greater Spirit Divine Realm."

    Xi Huangdi asked weakly and with great bewilderment, "You can''t send a spiritas from your own race to be a champion?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smirked, "Naturally I can and there are other champions that I''ll be using. Among the spiritas men, you are perhaps my strongest dog at this moment. As for my female champions, you are not even close."

    Xi Huangdi returned a bitter smile and he was saying almost incoherently, "I am¡­ a dog?!"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "So what is your choice then? Are you willing to be my dog or die in this ce? You have a count of 3 to answer me."

    Xi Huangdi answered bitterly, "That won''t be necessary. I am willing to be your dog¡­"

    He was thinking; she did not know that I have to gain her Trust Points yet. Being her dog will also allow me to quickly gain her trust, right? At least in this aspect, I am stronger than that Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 706 Offending Divine Consort Tang Manni (Again)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were now back into the tavern that was owned by Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    Along the way back to the tavern, Xiao Muhan was in a daze. "I can''t believe it. I can''t believe it¡­ that you actually now the Great Rebel Leader of the Great Spiritas Resistance now¡­"

    At first Ji Yuan had thought that he was just the local rebel leader until the old spiritas man Elder Xie Tianzun had told him that he was also in charge of the Great Spiritas Resistance in 100 other city states across the vast Spirit Divine Realm.

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted at this news...

    And along the way, Ji Yuan had also gone to a bank and exchanged for 1000 million or 1 billion high grade spirit stones, stunning all the spiritas in the bank.

    The spiritas maidens in the bank were the most stunned because they had never seen any man that was richer than Ji Yuan.

    Now back at the tavern, Ji Yuan was immediately greeted by Maiden Flower Ju with a warm smile and she was only smiling for Ji Yuan but not Xiao Muhan.

    Naturally no matter how dense Xiao Muhan was, he also knows the reason why and it was only because Ji Yuan had tipped her 100 gold coins or 100 million high grade spirit stones.

    Maiden Flower Ju quickly asked, "Master Ji Yuan, you are back now. I''m d that you are back. The streets are not safe at this moment."

    Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed as he asked curiously, "Why is that so?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er are going around checking on the men and checking if they are rebels. You ought to be careful."

    She was naturally also aware that Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both outer world celestial cultivators. Once Divine Consort Sun Dingjun or Divine Consort Ding Jing''Er sees their ck rings, they would know immediately their true identities.

    So she added a warning, "You will be safe here and under the protection of our Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei."

    Ji Yuan pretended to ask, "Hmm, what if the rebels are caught by them?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "They will be thrown into the Spiritas Pavilion Tower as diators for the amusement of the city."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "This seems to be a bad ending for them. How about their rebel leader if he is caught?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "He will be sacrificed as a burnt offering to the Great Beyond Goddess."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Either way, I am going to be sacrificed?

    He quickly answered, "Well, he deserves this bad ending for disrupting the peace of the city state."

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled as she returned a coquettish look at him, "Master Ji Yuan, my work here isn''t busy, especially at night. If you are free tonight, why don''t I visit your room to have a little chat with you?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I''m always free."

    Maiden Flower Ju giggled softly, "That''s great to know!"

    Xiao Muhan was frowning unhappily; it seemed to him that this Maiden Flower Ju was suddenly interested in Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan lowered his voice to ask of a sudden, "Erm, Maiden Flower Ju, there is something that I need to check with you. May I know where the 4 Divine Consorts are and how can I meet them?"

    Maiden Flower Ju looked startled and she asked him, "You really going to look for the Divine Consorts?"

    She was actually thinking: Did he knows that he is actually courting his own death by trying to seek out the Divine Consorts?

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Is something wrong?"

    Maiden Flower Ju answered weakly, "Commoners like us don''t really have the chance to meet a Divine Consort¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Actually, I have already met one. Haha." Ji Yuan could not helpughing as he interrupted her.

    Maiden Flower Ju was startled, "Which one? And you are alive?"

    Ji Yuan did not know why she was asking if he was alive but he answered nevertheless, "Of course I am alive. As for the Divine Consort that I had seen, she is actually Divine Consort Sun Dingjun. She looks really impressive and she can even fly in the air."

    Maiden Flower Ju looked a little relieved as she smiled, "Divine Consort Sun Dingjun only have eyes for the rebels¡­"

    She wanted to say that Divine Consort Sun Dingjun only had eyes for the rebels and not the celestial griefers.

    Instead, she had decided to leave it unfinished by adding, "If you have met Divine Consort Dongfang Xin then this is another matter entirely."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly; it was because he was now a rebel and also the Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji as well as the cult leader of the true devil god.

    But he quickly asked with a curious look, "This Divine Consort Dongfang Xin is the most unfriendly?"

    Maiden Flower Ju said weakly, "Men are like dogs in her eyes."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly when he had heard her, "Haha¡­"

    But he quickly grinned, "Tell me more about the 4 Divine Consorts. The more information the better, haha."

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "The city is divided into 4 major spheres of influence and each of the Divine Consort represents 1 of the 4 major spheres of influences. All the minor spiritas nobles fall into 1 of the 4 major spheres of influences. The biggest influences are of course Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Tang Manni. It is because they are at the upper 7th spirit realm while Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er are at the middle 7th spirit realm."

    Ji Yuan said as he digested the information, "This is interesting. Then which influence did your mistress fall under?"

    Maiden Flower Ju was startled by this question but she did not want to tell Ji Yuan that her mistress Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was actually an independent influence in Snowy Pavilion City as she was an ex-Divine Consort in the past.

    So she smiled weakly to answer Ji Yuan, "My mistress is under the sphere of influence of Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her with an excited grin, "Speaking of Divine Consort Tang Manni, do you know what her preferences are? Tell me everything about her. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan frowned all of a sudden, "Why are you asking so much about the Divine Consorts for? I should be the one that is asking the question."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am merely asking for you¡­"

    Then he gave Xiao Muhan a kick to hint to him that he was also now the new rebel leader. "After all, knowing the enemy is the best way to ovee them. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan rolled his golden eyes¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju weakly said to Ji Yuan, "It is better that you show some concern to Maiden Han Muyuan instead¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a snort, "She again? I keep knocking into her everywhere wherever I go. She is like a slut in her flimsy robe that could slip off to reveal her boobs anytime and she is even shing her white buttocks in my beautiful face. I don''t mind if she is a Divine Consort but she isn''t¡­"

    All of a sudden Maiden Flower Ju had turned ashen; it was because she had suddenly spotted Divine Consort Tang Manni aka ''Han Muyuan'' at the entrance of the tavern and she had obviously heard Ji Yuan¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hade to the tavern to check if Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were alright after the raid by Divine Consort Sun Dingjunst night but the first thing that she had heard was Ji Yuan calling her a slut.

    She was so upset when she had heard Ji Yuan that she turned around to storm off with her followers behind her.

 Chapter 707 Shocking Revelations

    ?

    Maiden Flower Ju looked weakly at Ji Yuan who was unaware that he had offended Divine Consort Tang Manni again by calling her a slut.

    She could tell that Tang Manni was really furious this time by judging at the way that she had stormed off without a word.

    She thought weakly: Luckily for Master Ji Yuan, he is inside the tavern. If he is outside, I don''t know what Divine Consort Tang Manni will do to him¡­

    Ji Yuan saw the expressions that were on Maiden Flower Ju and he turned around just in time to see ''Han Muyuan'' storming off with an angry look.

    Xiao Muhan had also saw ''Han Muyuan'' and he was saying weakly, "You seem to have something against that beautiful maiden¡­"

    But Ji Yuan simply shrugged his shoulders nonchntly, "She must be following me again. She seems desperate to get me to be her cultivation partner. Haha¡­"

    Suddenly, Ji Yuan had lowered his head to whisper to Maiden Flower Ju. "I wonder what is up with the rebels? What are these spiritas men trying to rebel against?"

    He quickly added with a weak smile, "I have been isted in Jedi City and it is far, far away from here. That is why I am quite ignorant about the rebels. Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan was not going to let Han Muyuan affects his questions. Whether she was upset or not, he was not concerned.

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled weakly to herself: Of course, he did not know. He is a celestial after all.

    But she quickly exined with a bitter smile, "In the past, the Spirit Divine Realm was ruled by the Divine Lords. They are extremely tyrannical and they treat the female spiritas as their ythings. Not only tyrannical but extremely degenerated as well. In the past, they can parade the female spiritas naked in the streets whenever they like."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "They are so horrible?"

    Maiden Flower Ju hummed coldly, "Horrible isn''t the right word to describe these degenerated spiritas men. Whether human maidens or spiritas maidens, they are the toys of the spiritas men and they can take them in public, sometimes multiple maidens can be taken by a mere man. Using the name of their degenerate god which is the true devil god, these degenerated spiritas menmitted many untold acts of depravities on the maidens¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly: I was told by the rebels that it is the maidens that are the ones that are degenerated here¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju continued bitterly, "These rebels just want to restore the glory days of their Divine Lords when so that they can continue to treat the maidens in the Spirit Divine Realm as their ythings. While we have tamed the ambitions of most of the men now but the rebels just refuse to give up and they have a rebel leader in all the spiritas cities to fight for their cause. You can never trust these menpletely."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ luckily, I am a good man¡­"

    Xiao Muhan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan tried to distract Maiden Flower Ju from the depravities of the men by asking, "Erm, there are humans around here? I mean mortals. I don''t see any?"

    Maiden Flower Ju answered casually, "The original humans are long extinct. Most of spiritas that you are seeing today is a mixed blood between the original human race and the spirit race."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "Huh? Mixed blood?"

    That exined why he was seeing all the weird colored eyes around and the reason why he could not pinpoint the characteristic of the spiritas spirit race¡­

    "That''s right." Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "I am a mixed blood as well. There is no pure blood in the Spirit Divine Realm."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why is that so?"

    Maiden Flower Ju answered bitterly, "It is all due to the wanton depravities of the spiritas men in the past. But they are now cursed to be extremely low in fertility now and most of the children are now also females."

    Ji Yuan thought weakly: Woes to the spiritas men for their low fertility. But luckily, I am high in fertility¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju was saying silently: That is why we need the celestials every 500 years to help to improve the fertility rates in the Spirit Divine Realm¡­

    Ji Yuan asked another question, "If the Divine Lords were so powerful in the past, how did the maidens be the dominant now?"

    Maiden Flower Ju began to smile, "That is due to the credit of our Great Ancestor Divine Consort who was the first Divine Consort ever. Legends say that she had found the Goddess'' Tear of the Great Beyond Goddess and had made a wish to be stronger. That is also why we worship the Great Beyond Goddess as our patron goddess here instead of the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Haha¡­ I will never worship the True Devil God too¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled at him, "You are a good man so naturally you won''t worship a degenerate god such as the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan stammered, "Yes, yes¡­"

    Xiao Muhan weakly looked at Ji Yuan; it was because just before they had left the rebels'' hideout, they had just worshipped the True Devil God in order to seek his blessings for the rebels.

    All of a sudden, the profound voice of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was heard from upstairs of the tavern, "Master Ji Yuan. I have something to discuss with you. Could you pleasee up alone?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes and wondered why the Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was looking for him.

    He had suddenly remembered that the spiritas men here have extremely low fertility and he remembered that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had previously asked him if he has a cultivation partner.

    Don''t tell me that she wants me to bang her?

    Maiden Flower Ju said to Ji Yuan, "My mistress wishes to see you. Follow me."

    With a weak look, Ji Yuan began to walk up the stairs and he was apanied by Maiden Flower Ju. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan was smiling bitterly as he watched Ji Yuan; it was because he was not summoned¡­

    -

    -

    -

    In no time, Ji Yuan was inside Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s personal room.

    Maiden Flower Ju did not enter the room and instead she just said to him as she stood outside, "You may enter."

    When Ji Yuan had entered the room, Maiden Flower Ju had quietly closed the door behind her.

    Ji Yuan knows that once inside this room, no sounds could be heard from within as there was a anti-sound formation array that protected this room.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was looking rosy and no longer looking frail.

    In fact, she was looking extremely enticing which shocked Ji Yuan; she was naked from her body except for two thin straps that covered her perked nipples and a beautiful decorated jewel was covering her sacred valley below her.

    Other than that, she was almost partially nude.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he stared at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei who seemed like a different maiden now.

    He got a feeling that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei intended to have him banged her today¡­

    This is going to be the first ce that he would be banging a spiritas maiden¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled enticing when she saw Ji Yuan.

    "Master Ji Yuan, please have a seat and don''t stand there."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he walked to the nearest chair before asking, "Fairy Concubine, you want to see me? About?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei smiled, "I want to talk to you about Han Muyuan."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned; he was actually disappointed that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was not talking about herself¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly looked quite solemn, "I think there is a misunderstanding between Han Muyuan and you."

    Her divine sense had sensed her sister earlier and she appeared to be quite upset.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "We have no misunderstandings. It is just that I am not interested in her. Haha¡­"

    He was only interested to bang the 4 Divine Consorts in order to gain his 100 Trust Points for this trial.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said slowly, "Han Muyuan is actually my step-sister by another mother. And Han Muyuan is actually not her real name. She is actually a most affectionate maiden if you know her well enough."

    Ji Yuan snorted, "I know that this isn''t her real name. She is just using Brother Xiao Muhan and my name as her alias. I am not interested to know her name and I don''t want to know her. Don''t be misunderstood. She is a most beautiful maiden but she is not my cup of tea."

    "No, you will be interested." Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei interrupted gently, "My sister is actually the Divine Consort Tang Manni."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did I just screw up on something?!

    She is the Divine Consort Tang Manni?!

    He began to stammer, "You are not joking with me, right?"

    Ji Yuan discreetly rubbed his ck ring as he willed the name of Divine Consort Tang Manni into it and was suddenly shocked to see that he had just broken a new record for his trust points.

    -250 Trust Points!

    He had a negative 250 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni now¡­

    He had suddenly remembered why he had a -100 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni when he had first tested his ck ring¡­

    I am going to eat shit this time?

 Chapter 708 The Truth Hurts

    ?

    As Ji Yuan walked down the stairs with Maiden Flower Ju, he was still thinking if he ought to eat shit this time; it was because he had previously said that he would eat shit if he were interested in ''Han Muyuan'' who was actually the Divine Consort Tang Manni herself.

    He had suddenly realized that he once had a good chance to gain the Trust Points from Divine Consort Tang Manni but he had now screwed it.

    The ''easiest to approach'' Divine Consort had now been turned into the ''hardest to approach'' Divine Consort by his own remarks ofte.

    He looked terrible after walking out from the personal room of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    Maiden Flower Ju saw his terrible look and had asked what was wrong.

    But Ji Yuan simply said to her, "Nothing¡­"

    Xiao Muhan saw the bitter look that was on Ji Yuan as he was walking down the stairs, "What is wrong? You don''t look too happy. Did Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei says something to you?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Nothing at all."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "You look like as though you just got rejected by someone."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When Maiden Flower Ju had reached the first floor of the tavern, she had immediately returned to the counter that she was manning.

    Ji Yuan waited for her to be far away before he put on a straight face as he forced himself to smile at Xiao Muhan, "Brother Xiao Muhan, I have been thinking about something. Erm¡­"

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "What is it and stop beating around the bush."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am thinking that you may be right after all. I am going after Maiden Han Muyuan instead and I shall let you have a chance to be with the Divine Consorts."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "Really? Suddenly you are enlightened?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am always enlightened. I must admit that you have higher trust points than me too and that you are my superior."

    Xiao Muhan was naturally delighted to have Ji Yuan out of his way but he was also suspicious, "What did Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei talks to you about?"

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "She is only informing me that Maiden Han Muyuan is actually her sister and that Maiden Han Muyuan is also a most affectionate maiden. That is why I have changed my mind."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Is that so? And you change your mind because of this?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "I need to give Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei some face, right? After all, we are using her ce for free lodgings and food. Also, do you agree with me that Maiden Han Muyuan is actually a most beautiful maiden?"

    Xiao Muhan was forced to agree, "That Maiden Han Muyuan is indeed the most beautiful maiden that I''ve seen so far in this city¡­"

    "Indeed!" Ji Yuan interrupted, "And I feel so guilty that I''ve been hurting her all this while as well."

    Xiao Muhan took a wary look at him before he said, "Well, good luck then. I don''t think she will forgive you or even like you now."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "This is not a problem. I can quite confident that I can make her make her change her heart. Hahaha¡­"

    Actually, he was not confident at all¡­

    Xiao Muhanughed heartily all of a sudden, "I remember that you say a true cultivator never regrets his decision, whether it is a bad or good thing. And also, you will eat shit if you do regret it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Brother, do you really want me to eat shit so much? This is just between the two of us and moreover, I am leaving the Divine Consorts for you to handle now. How can you be so ungrateful to my goodwill?"

    He had naturally neglected to mention that Maiden Han Muyuan was actually the Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Ji Yuan had examined all his options and he had felt that Divine Consort Tang Manni was actually a more realistic goal since she was the sister of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and that she was also a frequent visitor to this tavern.

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth 5th level.

    Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin were now looking at a fairy like beautiful maiden that was with them in this trial.

    Guo Taiming and Shen Qin were grinning at her and they were curious to know her name.

    "May we know the name of maiden and your cultivation?"

    The fairy like beautiful maiden with white snowy hair returned a beautiful smile, "I am Ding Xiaoxiao. I am just a lowly golden celestial in the 5th cultivation realm."

    Indeed, she is Ding Xiaoxiao aka Number 1.

    The reason why she had been patience with these 3 men was because she needed them to ovee a group trial that required each other and that they may also be usefulter.

    She had noticed that there were more group trials for the B Trials the more she ascended the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and there was also many other trials that required a team.

    Shen Qin took the opportunity to pay his first respect over Guo Taiming by bowing respectfully with his hands, "I am Saint Shen Qin from the Astonishing Sword Manor. I may be an unorthodox cultivator but I am really a nice guy. If maiden does not believe me, you can ask my two brothers here. They are orthodox cultivators."

    Guo Taiming was not slow to introduce himself, "I am Supremacy Guo Taiming from the Five Heavens Peak and I am also the sect leader of my own celestial sect too. Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, you are from the Deste Celestial Fraternity too as well? I can tell from the intricate designs of your robe."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "That is right. I am indeed from the Deste Celestial Fraternity but I am just a weak cultivator from a poor region. You say that you are from the Five Heavens Peak? So you know Ji Yuan?"

    Li Yeughed heartily, "I am Celestial Li Ye and I happen to be an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect in the Five Heavens Peak. Ji Yuan is actually my sect leader! Nowadays almost everyone in the Deste Celestial Fraternity has heard of his renown."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "That is good to know. Do you mind telling me more about Ji Yuan? I want to know everything about him."

    Shen Qin quickly said, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, I happen to be a good brother of Ji Yuan here¡­"

    "I''m his best friend." Guo Taiming quickly interrupted and he was smiling with pride, "Without my guidance in the past, he would long be dead!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said with some sarcasm but it had gone unnoticed by them, "So you all know Ji Yuan? Howe you are all taking the B Trial here?"

    Shen Qin answered with a straight face, "We are actually here to help the other weaker cultivators to ovee the weaker trials here. And we are d to meet you here too."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled with some amusement, "Well, I am looking for the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and is looking for the B Trials to quickly reach to the top."

    Shen Qin was startled, "Maiden, are you really going to the 6th level? It gets harder to find the B Trials as we go higher level in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and as far as I know, there are no B Trials anymore on the 6th level. It is better to cultivate to a higher cultivation realm first before going to the 6th level. Even a saint like me dares not easily go to the 6th level."

    Guo Taiming was muttering, "Maiden, you must really consider this carefully. We have barely even manage to survive in the wilderness of deste monsters in this ce."

    Ding Xiaoxiao aka Number 1 simply smiled with a lie, "Then I have to wait for another 500 years, right? I''ll refuse to do so then and regrets it."

    Shen Qinughed weakly, "Naturally I will apany maiden to the 6th level if you really want to take a look there¡­"

    Guo Taiming said nervously and he was sweating, "I don''t mind be a tank for maiden for the entire expedition¡­"

    Li Ye was startled, "You are all going to the 6th level now?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao giggled softly, "I am d that I have somepany. But first, tell me more about Sword Saint Ji Yuan first."

    Guo Taimingughed, "No one knows more about that rascal''s little ck history than me here. All I can say is that he is really fast with the sword."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled and asked nonchntly, "Just exactly how fast is he?"

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "He can touch the butts of the maidens faster than you can blink your eyes."

 Chapter 709 Divine Consort Jieâ€™Er (1)

    ?

    A cultivator with an aged toga had suddenly appeared in a high fashion shop in Snowy Pavilion City. He had heard that this ''Dandelion Fashion'' in this ce had the best profound clothes in the entire Snowy Pavilion City.

    Though it took him some time to find it but he was excited when he had finally it.

    "Haha, so this is the ce."

    This cultivation was actually Ji Yuan.

    It was time for him to buy the best toga in this ce in order to make a good impression on Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    So, he started to walk in, much to the stares of the many of the maidens that numbed a dozen inside who wore even more revealing clothing than he was expecting.

    Or rather, there was ack of clothing on them¡­

    A scantily dressed maiden immediately stepped forward and she was greeting him coldly, "Men and dogs are not allowed inside the shop."

    Ji Yuan was startled; Maiden Flower Ju did not tell him about this rule.

    So he asked bitterly, "Howe I didn''t know about this rule? When did this rule starts?"

    The scantily dressed maiden answered coldly, "Today. I don''t want you to disturb the noble maidens in my ce. So please leave now."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Men and dogs are not allowed in this ce? Do you know who I am?"

    The scantily dressed maiden looked at his poor toga and snorted coldly, "And who are you?"

    Ji Yuan was only trying to scare this maiden off but he did not think that she would ask who he was in the next instant.

    So, he was stammering for words in the next instant, "Well¡­I am¡­ erm, actually I am a personal friend of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and Divine Consort Tang Manni. You may call me Master Yuan¡­"

    He had suddenly paused to think: Wait! Yuan Ji is the great rebel leader. I can''t use this name or my real name in case they really track me down¡­

    So he quickly said, "Yuan Beluga."

    This was actually a spiritas name that he had picked up along the way.

    The scantily dressed maiden frowned unhappily, "Well, Yuan Beluga. You can leave now. We do not wee you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I have plenty of spirit stones, you know."

    The scantily dressed maiden took a look at Ji Yuan before she chuckled coldly, "You look like a poor pauper to me. Surely you know that men have to pay in full and we can''t give you any discount. Moreover, you can''t even afford even a belt in this ce¡­"

    All of a sudden, a young and extremely beautiful dark blonde maiden dressed in translucent white and gold silk had appeared from one of the dressing rooms in the shop and she was looking amused. "Since he wants to shop in this ce, why not allow him to do so?"

    When the scantily dressed maiden saw this extremely beautiful dark blonde maiden with white jade figure, she had immediately turned ashen and she answered, "Yes, yes¡­"

    She had wanted to answer yes to this Divine Consort but her shop had a privacy use to protect its customers and this Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er did not want anyone to know who she was.

    One must know that even some of the richer and noble maidens in Snowy Pavilion City had no idea what the Divine Consorts truly look like especially if they have never met them before.

    As for the men, they had even fewer contact with the Divine Consorts.

    Ji Yuan was delighted as heughed jovially, "Maiden, you are wise indeed."

    He began to appraise this extremely beautiful dark blonde maiden who was dressed in gold that covered her boobs and a thin veil of gold that covered her crotch. Other than that, she was quite nude. Even her short shirt was a translucent white that did not cover anything.

    This extremely beautiful dark blonde maiden smiled at his praises before she giggled softly, "This is not a big deal anyway. Moreover, your name is exactly the same as my deceased cat. He is also called Beluga. And I have a little known nick as Beluga-mom."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly when he had heard her and he was saying to himself: If my mom is this beautiful then I don''t mind at all.

    Xiang Li was giggling: Big Brother, I giving your mom 11 out of 10.

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden: Xiang Li, aren''t you supposed to be cultivating like Anyang? Why are you here?<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiang Li giggled: I did but all work but no y is boring. Don''t you agree with me?

    Ji Yuan frowned: This is a little true.

    But he was soon frowning again: Xiang Li, did you just use this as an excuse not long ago?

    The extremely beautiful maiden giggled softly, interrupting Ji Yuan''s thoughts. "So Yuan Beluga. This shop is really a little too expensive. Can you really afford it or are you actually inside the shop to ogle at the maidens here?"

    Ji Yuan was frowning¡­

    Not because she was wrong but he was actually here to ogle at the butts and bosoms of the maidens here too as well.

    He lifted a gold coin and tossed it to the extremely beautiful maiden, "This is a tip for you for being the friendliest staff in this shop."

    The extremely beautiful maiden blinked her eyes as she caught hold of the gold coin, "This is real gold¡­"

    Even the scantily dressed maiden was startled when she saw the gold coin and realized that his poor pauper was actually quite rich¡­

    Ji Yuanughed, "This is nothing. I still got more gold coins. Haha. But at this moment, I''ve got too many high-grade spirit stones to spend instead."

    The extremely beautiful maiden yed with the gold coin in her hands and she was looking weirdly at it, "This doesn''t look like a fake."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course this isn''t fake. I don''t have a single fake stuff on me."

    The extremely beautiful maiden smiled, "That is good. Because I have met some fakes in the past and I''ve chop off their hands for deceiving me. I hate people that lies to me the most."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Lying about my name is not a real lie, am I right?

    What am I thinking. I am a great saint. She isn''t my match. Haha¡­ silly me¡­ even that Divine Consort Tang Manni doesn''t look that strong to me¡­

    The extremely beautiful maiden disyed an alluring smile at Ji Yuan and her eyes seemed to be extremely piercing as she examined him, "You won''t lie to me, am I right?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Why should I try lie to you? I am just here to buy some clothing. Hahaha¡­"

    Well, at least that was his initial business here¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly put his hand around the waist around of this extremely beautiful maiden, startling her and he was grinning. "Why don''t maiden show me around your shop? I can give you another gold coin for your effort. A gold coin is like a million high-grade spirit stones. This is easy allowance for you and you can use this to improve your cultivation. What do you think?"

    The extremely beautiful maiden stared at Ji Yuan with shock: How did he manage to move so fast?

    Then she was further shocked when she saw the ck ring on his finger: He is a celestial cultivator?!

    As for the scantily dressed maiden, she had turnedpletely ashen for this man here had just molested a Divine Consort¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was trembling now as she stared at Ji Yuan; she was visiting incognito in the shop here and she did not want anyone to know her true identity.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly moved his hand down from her waist and he was rubbing her soft naked butt while grinning, "You really have a nice and perky butt. If you can please me well, maybe I can even give you another gold coin as a tip. It is easy money for you and you don''t have to work so hard in the future."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly said coldly, "You are courting your¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her by squeezing her soft naked butt and he wasughing, "Are you trying to say that I am courting you? Well, on ount of your lovely butt, I can allow you to try to seduce me while I am inside the shop. But let me warn you first. I am a difficult man to please. Haha¡­"

 Chapter 710 Divine Consort Jieâ€™Er (2)

    ?

    Divine Consort Ding Jing''Er pushed Ji Yuan out of the way and she was now saying coldly to him, "How dare you¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he took out a bag of gold coins as he tossed it into her hands, "I know the rules here. Haha. Touching a maiden here will fine me 1000 high grade spirit stones. Banging a maiden here will cost me 10 000 high grade spirit stones. Maybe you are not for sales but everyone has a principle that can be bend. So, what do you think?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er looked into the bag of gold and was startled to see that there were at least 50 gold coins inside this bag; it is worth 50 million high grade spirit stones¡­

    She was suddenly gasping¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er quickly turned to the scantily dressed maiden to say coldly, "What are you looking at? We are actually joking with each other just now to test if you are nice to your customers. Now keep quiet and leave us alone."

    She quickly looked up at Ji Yuan since she was a head shorter than him and grinned at him, "Master Yuan Beluga, please let me be your guide in this shop."

    Ji Yuan wasughing too, "Maiden, I still don''t know your name yet. How may I address you?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled, "You may call me Little Jie''Er here."

    Ji Yuanughed as he wrapped his arm around Little Jie''Er, "So, Little Jie''Er. Shall we have a tour around this shop? I want the best profound toga in this shop. Oh yes, maybe you can even help me pick a pair of profound scandals as well."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled, "This may cost you quite a hefty amount. How much do you have?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I''ve 1 billion high grade spirit stones in my spatial storage. And if that is not enough, I still have some gold coins."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was gasping, "You are a billionaire?!"

    Among the 4 Divine Consort, she was actually the poorest and moreover, she had to maintain the contribution points of her followers who were keen to withdraw their contribution points for high grade spirit stones to exchange for profound treasures.

    At one point, she was so upset that she had actually wanted to sell all her followers to the brothel to earn back some of the expensive upkeep.

    So when Ji Yuan had suddenly tossed 50 million high grade spirit stones into her hands, she was stunned; it was because this was worth 3 years of her contributions for her followers!

    Another reason why she was not with her followers today was because she did not want them to gain any contribution points for escorting her.

    She would rather save her high grade spirit stones to do her own personal shopping!

    She took a look at this Yuan Beluga again¡­

    This Yuan Beluga was a freaking rich man!

    And now he was telling her that he was actually a billionaire!

    As far as she knows, most of the celestials that hade to the Spirit Divine Realm were dirt poor and they hade to seek their cultivation fortunes in this ce.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er could not resist asking Ji Yuan, "How did you get so rich?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he stroked the smooth and silken naked butt of Little Jie''Er, "I actually own a gold mine. Haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jing''Er was gasping with shock as she quickly asked him, "You are not from this city, right?"

    She was stating the obvious as she had already known that Yuan Beluga was a celestial cultivator; she actually had a list of the richest men in this city and none of them could even fit the beautiful face of this celestial cultivator.

    Today was really her lucky day!

    Ji Yuan was also thinking that today was his lucky day for meeting such a gorgeous and sensuous looking maiden.

    But naturally he was only ying with her because he did not want to cause any maidens to fall in love with him since he would be leaving this Spirit Divine Realm after 70 days.

    Only the 4 Divine Consorts would be in his radar. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And he was only here to buy the best toga clothing so that he would look awesome in front of Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Divine Consort Ding Jing''Er giggled, "Do you have a cultivation partner?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised when she had suddenly asked him this question.

    He answered with a chuckle, "I am still looking for one. Hahaha¡­"

    When he ''Hahaha'' three times, it means that he was actually lying awkwardly.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was now smiling to herself: What luck. I am going to have him all for myself and make him cough out all his wealth for me. I mustn''t let him have the chance to meet the other Divine Consorts or this will be terrible for me¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her thoughts and he was asking, "Among the 4 Divine Consorts, which one is the easiest for me to approach?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled, "Naturally it is the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled, "Not Divine Consort Tang Manni?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er looked a little unhappy when she had heard her name, "This Divine Consort Tang Manni is the most difficult to approach. You can forget about her."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "She is the most difficult to approach?"

    He was actually thinking: Really? Or maybe Tang Manni has only her eyes on me?

    But he quickly realized something, "Wait a minute. You are saying that Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er is the easiest to approach. She is also called Jie''Er and your name is also called Jie''Er¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled softly, "I am Little Jie''Er. She is called Ding Jie''Er. Jie''Er is actually amon namesake in this ce."

    Ji Yuanughed with a sudden realization, "Oh I see! Haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was actually smiling weakly in her heart when she had said that and she was thinking: It is better that none of the maidens here can recognize me in this ce. That personal shop assistant knows who I am. She has to disappear. I value my reputation as a Divine Consort and I don''t want anyone to know that I''m a gold digger¡­

    She was already thinking of her next few moves: He has two options. If he doesn''t submit to me then I am afraid that I have to rob him clean. But this shouldn''t be the case. I am quite confident of my beautiful looks and we look perfectlypatible¡­

    If he submitted to me then all is fine. But I don''t want him to mess around with any of my followers. So I just castrate him after the birth of our daughter¡­

    But if he doesn''t submit to me then I can''t let my followers know either. Or they will know that I am robbing him¡­

    But can I defeat him?

    He is a peaked great saint¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had already checked Ji Yuan''s cultivation soul sea with her superior divine sense.

    This is actually one great advantage that the spiritas have over the celestials and it is the ability of the high level spiritas to read the cultivation soul seas of the celestial cultivators.

    Can I defeat him alone?

    The reason why she was asking herself this question was because she was only at the earth-step level of the middle 7th Spirit Realm. Compared to the two Divine Consorts like Dongfang Xin and Tang Manni, she was still a little weak.

    There was also a 3rd option for her but she did not want to exercise this option. At least not unless she did not have any other options and that was to make this Yuan Beluga into her champion to fight in the Spiritas Pavilion Tower for her to obtain more spiritual power for a breakthrough in her spirit cultivation realm.

    If she chooses this option, even a peaked great saint would be no match for thebined profound attacks that were from her and also her followers.

    But this would mean that she had to send this beautiful Yuan Beluga to his death in the Spiritas Pavilion Tower¡­

 Chapter 711 Divine Consort Jieâ€™Er (3)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now admiring a purple toga and it even had a red cloak at the back, "Omg. The profound defense of this clothing is like 10 times better than the one that I am wearing¡­"

    Little Jie''Er or rather Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was smiling, "There seems to be nothing special about your toga. It is just a mortal-step profound treasure and it isn''t worth a look. This purple toga on the other hand is made of the finest mystique spiritual threads and is a heaven-step saint profound treasure. This should be the most expensive and strongest toga in this shop."

    Ji Yuan nodded and checked the price tag, "Hmm, 100 million high grade spirit stones?"

    Little Jie''Er asked curiously, "Is it too expensive?"

    This was worth 6 years of her finances so this was naturally truly expensive in her eyes.

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "No, this is truly cheap. I was half-expecting that the profound clothing here would cost me a hand or a leg. You can''t find even this profound treasure where Ie from. I really like this ce. Haha¡­."

    In the Celestial Realm, spirit profound treasures like this purple toga will naturally cost 10 times as much and it is much difficult to weave than in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Little Jie''Er was smiling weakly, "This is cheap¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw several sexy mystique robes and he began to pile it on the hands of Little Jie''Er, "This and this. I want them all."

    Little Jie''Er was startled, "But these are maidens'' robe. You are going to wear these?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Hell no¡­"

    He was thinking of buying these mystique robes as presents for his maidens and also to sell the excess ones when he is back to the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Little Jie''Er was stunned as she stared at the number of mystique robes that were in her arms, "This may cost you 800 million high grade spirit stones. Maybe even more. And you will be bankrupted. Are you sure that you want to buy all these mystique robes?"

    Ji Yuan began to murmur, "Hm, this is expensive for just a few mystique robes¡­"

    Little Jie''Er smiled, "I told you so¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly tossed another bag of gold coins into her arms, "This is another 1000 gold coins. This should be enough then. I want to buy more then, haha¡­"

    Little Jie''Er was stunned, "You are going to spend more than 1 billion high grade spirit stones on clothing?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Why not?"

    He was load up with gold coins simply because he was too poor in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. But in this ce, he could actually buy so many stuffs with his gold coins.

    He was now on a spending spree!

    Little Jie''Er almost fainted from seeing how rich this Yuan Beluga was. "This, this¡­"

    Ji Yuan patted her gently as he grinned, "Little Jie''Er, I know that you are worried about my finances. But don''t worry about it. Go and pick the most expensive mystique robe that you like and I''ll foot the bill for you. Haha¡­"

    Little Jie''Er was stunned, "Really?!"

    But she was soon grinning, "Master Yuan Beluga, you are too kind¡­"

    Even though she may be a Divine Consort but she dared not buy the most expensive mystique robe here. There was one golden mystique robe that she had been eying for several months now¡­

    She was so delightful that she began to cuddle on Ji Yuan''s right arm in the most amicable manner and forgetting that she was Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er instead.

    This Yuan Beluga was not only rich but he was also very beautiful looking; he was just the perfect lord consort for her.

    She made a suggestion for him, "Why don''t I buy these clothing for you instead and you pay me a little tip? I got a 90% discount while you have to pay in full."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "You are not a shop assistant?"

    Little Jie''Er giggled, "I never say I am."

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly but he was soonughing heartily, "90% discount you say? That means that I can buy dozens more. This is really good. I''m so d to have met you today."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Little Jie''Er was also smiling, "Same here as well. Hehe¡­"

    She was actually thinking of her ''tips''¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan was frowning as he muttered. "This won''t do¡­"

    Little Jie''Er asked curiously, "What is wrong?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "These maiden outfits are too revealing¡­"

    He can''t allow his maidens to wear these revealing outfit in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­

    Little Jie''Er: ???

    "They seem alright to me¡­"

    Ji Yuan said to Little Jie''Er, "I''ve got an idea. Maybe the shop is able to custom tailor for me."

    Little Jie''Er: ???

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Follow me!"

    Little Jie''Er curiously followed him to the counter where the scantily dressed maiden that he had first met was.

    He said to her, "I will like some extra services like making a new fashionable clothing. Is your shop able to handle my requirements?"

    The scantily dressed maiden was actually more afraid of the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er that was standing next to this Yuan Beluga so she answered quickly, "If this is not thatplicated, it isn''t an issue at all."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "This is definitely not an issue at all."

    Then he took out a panties and put it on the counter, "I want you to make this."

    The scantily dressed maiden looked a little startled, "What is this?"

    Ji Yuan proudly exined, "This is a panties, for the maidens. Look at how sexy it is?"

    It was time for him to start his own fashion brand now. Now what should he call his new fashion brand? Maybe LV? LV would stand for Longevity Victory. Just imagine all the maidens in this city wearing his LV brand between their legs really excited him to no ends.

    The scantily dressed maiden asked weakly, "How do you wear this?"

    Ji Yuan frowned with a puzzled look, "Can''t you see? You have to put it on through your legs to wear it. This will help to protect the modesty of the maidens too."

    The scantily dressed maiden looked a little helpless as she said weakly, "This is too crude. No maidens will dare to wear this in public."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Little Jie''Er had naturally recognized that it was a panties that Yuan Beluga was showing; she had seen it on the celestial maidens in the past.

    She quickly exined to Yuan Beluga, "No maidens here will wear this. No maidens here like to pull something over their legs. This is too crude and it is like the mark of very."

    The scantily dressed maiden was also nodding, "Only the rebels will force a panties on the maidens. This is too decadent for a maiden to be wearing it. I hope that Master Yuan Beluga understands why we can''t help to weave this for you."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "How is it decadent? I really don''t see anything wrong with wearing one¡­"

    Little Jie''Er quickly pulled him over and said sternly, "This is enough. I know that you are not a rebel so let''s drop this topic. You have no idea how decadent the rebels are. After making the maidens wear these panties, they enjoy stuffing these panties into their mouths as well. This is too debauched."

    Ji Yuan was about to say there was also nothing wrong with this but he had decided to shut up with his fetish.

    He began to roll his golden eyes with a sheepish look; he had finally understood why it was no wonder that the maidens here did not wear any panties¡­

 Chapter 712 Divine Consort Jieâ€™Er (4)

    ?

    Several hourster, Ji Yuan had finished with his shopping and he had paid 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones for all his purchases.

    He was looking pleased as all his purchases for his maidens did not evene close to 2 billion high grade spirit stones yet.

    He had even found two spirit weaving robes for Xiang Li and Anyang as well.

    Xiang Li and Anyang of course were no longer doing any cultivation but they were too busy pointing out to Ji Yuan which of the beautiful clothes that they had actually liked.

    They were equally excited too.

    Naturally, Little Jie''Er was not privacy to their conversations with Ji Yuan.

    While it may seem little to Ji Yuan but it was only because of Little Jie''Er that had helped Ji Yuan to get so much discount.

    Even the scantily dressed maiden was shocked by Ji Yuan''s outrageous purchases and she had a change of attitude regarding this poor pauper now and she was showering Ji Yuan with all kinds of friendly smiles.

    But still she was shocked when she had counted the bill and it amounted to 12 billion high grade spirit stones¡­

    "After discount, this will cost you 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones¡­ are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "No problem! So shall it be."

    His instant and casual reply stunned Little Jie''Er and the scantily dressed maiden¡­

    Little Jie''Er wanted to faint on the spot as she thought: He is just too freaking rich¡­just how many years of contributions these 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones canst me¡­ I really can''t imagine anymore¡­

    She almost wanted to cry on the spot; actually, every month she had almost cry whenever she saw the amount of high grade spirit stones that her followers were withdrawing from her. It was as though she was a bank.

    And that was why she was quite picky about the contribution points that her followers would be allowed to gain. In fact, there were much fewer chances of gaining any contribution points from her than the other Divine Consorts.

    Among the spiritas cultivators in Snowy Pavilion City, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er is renowned as the stingiest Divine Consort and her followers have divided loyalties due to that. That is also the reason why she has the least amount of power influence in Snowy Pavilion City.

    Luckily for her, she had a good sister in Divine Consort Sun Dingjun that was willing to lend her some spirit stones every month.

    Because her followers know about their rtionship, they were unlikely to join Divine Consort Sun Dingjun as followers.

    They also did not want to join Divine Consort Dongfang Xin too because she had a reputation of treating her followers like dogs and her orders were like decrees.

    As for Divine Consort Tang Manni, being her follower was hard work because she was too active and she likes her followers to be more active too.

    In the end, most of her followers were content to earn a little contribution point just for sticking with Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er mainly because they did not have to do anything much and were content to just earning the basic contributions that were allocated to them each month.

    Unlike the other Divine Consorts, they had a Divine Consort that was actively avoiding them like a que.

    But today Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was absolutely delighted and she had not been this happy for such a long time.

    Not only did she get a beautiful and sexy new robe to show off to her followers, she actually had a lot of tips from this Yuan Beluga.

    The scantily dressed maiden was now asking Ji Yuan, "Master Yuan Beluga, do you want to pay with your spirit stones at hand or with your spirit card?"

    Ji Yuan muttered with a sudden realization, "Spirit card?"

    He had just remembered that he had a spirit card that was allocated to him since he was the Great Rebel Leader and that spirit card had exactly 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones, an amount that was gathered painstaking by the rebel resistance over the years.

    This spirit card worked just like a bank system within the rebel resistancework and the rebels were allowed to use their contribution points to withdraw spirit stones from it.

    As Great Rebel Leader, he was supposed to safeguard this spirit card and to allocate funds from it during times of great troubles like building a new hideout.

    Usually there were some safeguards to prevent abuse by the Great Rebel Leader but since Ji Yuan had contributed 200 million high grade spirit stones to the cause of the rebel resistance, the elders had forgotten to restrict him especially when they had learnt that Ji Yuan was quite wealthy.

    Without thinking, he took out the spirit card and grinned. "I have exactly 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones in this card."

    He was thinking: What luck!

    The scantily dressed maiden was shocked and quickly scanned the spirit card; indeed, there were 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones credit in this spirit card.

    She stammered, "This spirit card is indeed enough¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Little Jie''Er was shocked when she saw that Yuan Beluga had another 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones in a spirit card.

    Just how rich is he?!

    Ji Yuan was now saying to Little Jie''Er, "Thank you very much, my good friend for helping and guiding me. You may keep these 120 million high grade spirit stones in additional to the gold coins that I''ve given you. I didn''t even spend so much because of you. Haha¡­"

    Little Jie''Er was shocked and she was dazzled with happiness now; 120 million high grade spirit stones as her tips?!

    She was also feeling quite rich now and she finally have the cultivation resources to cultivate peacefully¡­

    Little Jie''Er was now smiling lovingly at Yuan Beluga and replying, "This is nothing at all. I can do more for you¡­"

    Her heart was actually thinking; Even if this Yuan Beluga wants to bang her for the entire night, no¡­ entire month, she doesn''t mind at all. She is even willing to be his whore...

    Ji Yuan had already put all the newly brought clothes into his spatial storage and he was now saying to Little Jie''Er, "Good bye, my friend."

    And he had already turned around to leave.

    Little Jie''Er asked him with a startled look, "You are leaving now?"

    Ji Yuan turned back with a grin as he pointed at his majesty profound toga that he had just brought to wear, "Of course I am leaving. I am done in this ce. Haha¡­"

    Little Jie''Er quickly asked him, "Where do you stay? I can apany you back."

    She was thinking if she could ambush him in some dark alley and forced him to be her dual cultivation partner. In this way, she would also be entitled to half of his wealth too.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "There is no need to do so. I don''t mind telling you my lodging though. I am staying in the tavern where Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is staying. I am actually her guest. Do you know her?"

    Little Jie''Er was stunned as she stammered, "I do know¡­ Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei¡­"

    In Snowy Pavilion City, everyone naturally knows who is Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei. It is because Xu Yifei was not only a peaked 7th Spirit Realm Divine Consort in the past but she was also ranked the strongest Divine Consort in this city state as well as thousands of city states all across the Spirit Divine Realm.

    In the past, she was known as the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and the title ''Great'' is not given easily given that there are thousands of city states and thousands of Divine Consorts in the entire Spirit Divine Realm.

    Sadly, to say, she suffered a damage to her cultivation core 500 years ago when she was supposed to ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm and she had since fallen from grace.

    Even so, the superiority of her spirit divine sense still cannot bepared to this day even though she is a Fairy Concubine now.

    She may have fallen from grace but she still has many followers that are willing to follow her till to this day.

    Also, it is alsomon knowledge that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei does not tolerate men in her tavern and if this Yuan Beluga is staying there, it would mean that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is also interested in him¡­

    Now Little Jie''Er aka Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er did not want to offend Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei at all. Not because she has a powerful sister that is Divine Consort Tang Manni but because she cannot afford to offend Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei at all.

    It is because her good friend Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had once dared to provoke Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and demanded that she gave the right of passage to her since she was Divine Consort now; she had thought of trampling upon the pride of this once former Great Divine Consort and to humiliate her so that she could take away her influence in Snowy Pavilion City.

    In that duel between Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, it was actually Divine Consort Sun Dingjun that got thrashed; the former Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was still as formidable as before despite losing her 7th Spirit Realm cultivation.

    When she had asked Divine Consort Sun Dingjun why she had lost to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, she could only say weakly, "She seems to be able to read all my moves even better than myself¡­ it is best that we leave her alone in the future."

    Little Jie''Er aka Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was now blinking her eyes as she looked at Yuan Beluga; all her ns were now screwed¡­

    If this Yuan Beluga is really staying in Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern, then one of her followers must surely be following him to monitor his movements.

    Then all her schemes against this Yuan Beluga would then be fallen apart¡­

    Ji Yuan saw that Little Jie''Er seemed to be dazed but he had no time left to wait so he said, "Farewell Little Jie''Er. I need to go now."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er quickly sobered up as she disyed a forceful smile, "I wonder if Master Yuan Beluga will be so kind enough to visit my ce of residence? I can be a really good host."

    Ji Yuan was used to having lovelorn maidens around him but he had no interest in any maidens except for the 4 Divine Consorts.

    So, heughed it off. "Maybe next time. I got to go now. Farewell."

 Chapter 713 The Scheme Of The Evil Cultivation Master

    ?

    Outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea.

    A few days earlier at the Great Deste Divine Pce;

    Along a quiet hallway.

    The Evil Cultivation Master was talking quietly to the Sagess Alyssa, "We mustn''t allow anyone to know that the Great Demon God is injured."

    The Sagess Alyssa expressed a startling shock, "The Great Demon God is injured? Is it even possible? How?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master sighed softly, "I don''t know the exact reason as well but it seems to be a bacsh on his cultivation core. I can feel the minute bacsh of the profound energies even in the Great Deste Divine Pce. Therefore, it must be quite severe on our Great Demon God. Why do you think we are halting our attacks on the Eon Firmament Mountains until further notice?"

    He paused to say slowly, "That is because our Great Demon God requires the deste profound strength of everyone that is in the Great Deste Divine Pce to maintain the immortal array that seals the passage to the Immortal Realm as he could no longer maintain it with his own profound strength anymore."

    The Sagess Alyssa nodded slowly, "Now this makes sense. I wondering why we are not avenging the demise of the Deste Dragon God and the Dragon Faction is quite upset about this. I sense almost a revolt in our Great Deste Divine Pce."

    The Evil Cultivation Master whispered to the Sagess Alyssa, "No one must know that our Great Demon God is injured, especially the Saintess Fang Zhenfei."

    He pretended to sigh, "Number 1 has gone missing. Number 2 is injured. Number 4 is killed. We only have just a few top cultivation exponents to defend the Great Deste Divine Pce now. Let''s hope that the Saintess Fang Zhenfei would not choose to attack us at this time. You won''t tell anyone, right?"

    The Sagess Alyssa giggled, "Of course not. My lips are tight."

    This was only an act.

    It was because they had purposely said it to a female attendant who was hiding in the corridor.

    This female attendant was actually a close aide of Zhao Songjin who used to be from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Naturally the Evil Cultivation Master knows who the aides of Zhao Songjin are since he had been secretly monitoring Zhao Songjin for years.

    Today, the two of them were purposely leaking this ''news'' to Zhao Songjin and to Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    This female attendant quietly left the corridor, unwary that this was actually a purposely leak.

    The Sagess Alyssa then asked the Evil Cultivation Master, "I wonder if the Saintess Fang Zhenfei would take this bait and really attack the Great Deste Divine Pce?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master smiled coldly, "Maybe yes. Maybe no."

    The Sagess Alyssa asked, "What if she dares toe?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master smiled, "Then we can activate our trap on her. She will fall into our hands and not the Great Demon God."

    The Sagess Alyssa said warily, "But she can kill the Deste Dragon God. Are we able to trap her? We have failed thest time when shees, do you remember?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master began to smile wryly, "I am more afraid that she won''t dare toe. Don''t worry. My spies that are at the Eon Firmament Mountains have told me that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is injured and she is cultivating behind close door. The battle with the Deste Dragon God must have sapped her profound strength severely. This is the best time to trick her toe to the Great Deste Divine Pce."

    The Sagess Alyssa began to smile, "That is because she can''t afford to wait for the Great Demon God to recover his profound strength. Brilliant."

    The Evil Cultivation Master began to smile coldly, "While the Great Demon God and the Saintess Fang Zhenfei are fighting each other, we will be just behind them to ambush them."

    The Sagess Alyssa smiled, "I think Number 2 will y an important role."

    The Evil Cultivation Master nodded, "Number 2 is now my ything to be manipte. It is a lucky thing that Number 1 isn''t around at this time. I am actually a little afraid of her."

    The Sagess Alyssa asked curiously, "I wonder where did Number 1 goes to?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master began to grin, "That stupid Goddess Mel has tried to trick Number 1 to go to the Eons Firmament Mountains to confront Sword Saint Ji Yuan. She was hoping that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would capture Saintess Fang Zhenfei for the Great Demon God. She did go there but she has since changed her destination to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now because Sword Saint Ji Yuan is there."

    The Sagess Alyssa was now giggling, "It is no wonder why the Great Demon God had been so angry with the Goddess Mel a few days ago and I had heard that she was even beaten up quite badly by him. Now I know."

    The Evil Cultivation Master was also smiling, "That Goddess Mel is just a stupid whore that only knows how to spread her legs. She has now caused the Great Demon God to lose a most formidable fighter."

    The Sagess Alyssa grinned as she nodded, "I hate this Whore Mel a lot. How dare she forgets that she is a Deste Immortal and betrays our own kind. She haspletely side with the demonic race."

    She paused to ask, "So what is our next step now? Wait for Saintess Fang Zhenfei toe?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Evil Cultivation Master grinned, "We are going to continue our dual cultivation. With you and Number 2 of course."

    Present time at the Eons Firmament Mountains;

    Jiajia and Zhao Songjin were now alone in a cultivation study room.

    Zhao Songjin said to Jiajia, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei, this is what my ex-aide has told me and she has smuggled this piece of news out at her own personal risk. But do you think that this news is reliable?"

    Jiajia sighed softly, "This may be true. When the Deste Dragon God had met with his demise, I can sense the weakening of the immortal sea above. Something had happened to the Deste Dragon God and he was suddenly weakened. I suspect the same thing had happened to the Great Demon God and the Death God Mingwang as well."

    Zhao Songjin slowly nodded, "It is a lucky thing that the Death God Mingwang isn''t here in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But we have only less than 1 month before he is back."

    Jiajia sighed, "We have only got less than 1 month to do action now. If I am not wrong, the other n of the Great Demon God is to prevent the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth from returning to the Immortal Realm, rather than capturing the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. We have all been misled by the Great Demon God."

    Zhao Songjin slowly nodded, "I am more worried about Ji Yuan. Do you think that he is able to fulfill his mission?"

    Jiajia shook her head, "I''ve lied to him on the importance of obtaining the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. No one knows where the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is obtained. The only clue is inside the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I had been there before and I did not find any clues."

    Zhao Songjin smiled weakly, "So you are only sending him away because you do not want him to be in this mess, right?"

    Jiajia slowly nodded, "He is not strong enough to help me yet. I don''t want him to die."

    Zhao Songjin heaved a deep sigh, "Actually I have heard your secret conversation with Little Princess too. You have asked her to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so that she won''t be caught by the Evil Cultivation Pce. At least you think that she would be safer inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth than the outside."

    Jiajia was quiet for a while before she slowly nodded, "So you know."

    Zhao Songjin asked another question, "You believe that the words of Fairy Qiu Xiuyu? That she is now with child by Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and that she is from the realm?"

    Jiajia nodded, "I do believe her. She doesn''t look like the type that can lie. It is entirely possible that Ji Yuan has a trial that sent him to the lower mortal realm. At least we know that Ji Yuan is still alive inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, so that is actually good news."

    Zhao Songjin smiled coldly, "I think this Ji Yuan is just enjoying himself inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Fairy Qiu Xiuyu has also mentioned that Ji Yuan also has another lover by the name of Yun Chi."

    But Jiajia did not seem to mind and she was smiling gently, "Isn''t this good? He is learning to be a romantic cultivator now."

    Then she said to Zhao Songjin, "Thanks for the information. I would like to be alone for a while."

    Zhao Songjin nodded as she left the room.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue who were standing at the entrance were about toe inside the door when Jiajia told them, "Close the door. I would like to be alone¡­"

    Hua Wuwu blinked her golden eyes, "Alright mistress¡­"

    Hua Baiyue took a queer look at Hua Wuwu; it was because they had heard the conversations between their mistress and Zhao Songjin. So, they were quite eager to hear about their mistress'' next n of action.

    However, their mistress was not willing to share her ns with them which was something that rarely happens.

    So they began to sigh as they closed the door before leaving.

    When the Hua Sisters had left, Jiajia had suddenly coughed out a bout of golden blood¡­

    She did not want anyone to know that during the fateful battle with the Deste Dragon God, she too, had been severely injured.

    She began to look weakly at her dyed long blue hair, which was original a rich golden blonde¡­

    Blue was her favorite color and she likes blue because blue is also the color of her close divine pet Xiao Ruan, a blue phoenix.

    She said weakly, "I don''t have much time left. Ji Yuan, I won''t be able to see you anymore¡­"

 Chapter 714 Jiajia And Xue Qianxue

    ?

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was ying with her newborn baby, a baby boy when Saintess Fang Zhenfei had suddenly dropped in into her personal room.

    Her already loveliness and cuteness level were further enhanced when she saw that it was Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Jiajia.

    She began to chuckle with a yful wink, "Jiajia, so it is you! My personal room is never secure against you. You can simplye and go as you wishes, hehe."

    She did not mind this intrusion at all because she was proud of this new friend and bosom sister. Although they had known for 100 years now but it was only in the past year or so that they had be really close.

    Xue Qianxue was always grateful to Jiajia for bringing Ji Yuan and her together, even though this was actually not really Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s original n; Ji Yuan was just too unpredictable to follow any ns and he was always thinking funny.

    They had setup a ruse for Ji Yuan 100 years ago because they had all heard that he was infamous not attracted to any of the lovely maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and they wanted to know if he was really a gay since he had many drinking brothers.

    But it turned up that he was actually not¡­

    Meeting Jiajia for the very first time actually awakened something in Ji Yuan again after his bitter past rtionships.

    She had guessed that even Jiajia had given up on trying to predict his moves and at one point had even sent Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue to ensure that he was at least doing something predictable.

    When Jiajia saw Xue Qianxue, she was smiling too; it was because they seemed to be sharing the same thoughts.

    She had no idea how Ji Yuan had managed to find the Goddess Tear while he was a fugitive from her and she had never expected that the Goddess Tear was hiding in a low level trial.

    At one point of time, she was even trying to seek the Goddess Tear to enhance her own profound strength but it was just a legendary story and no one had ever seen one before.

    It was primary because the Goddess Tear only appeared to the most pure heart and the most desperate. Also, the Goddess Tear would never appear to the powerful and the greedy.

    Till today, she had no idea how Xiang Li the Goddess Tear was willing to be Ji Yuan''s soul mate. Ji Yuan had no idea as well and he could only say, "I didn''t think too much. I only want a friend¡­"

    The truth was, Ji Yuan had too much heart demons and he was always trying to talk to himself to convince himself. Having Xiang Li as his new heart demon actually resolved many of his inner heart demons. He could not say no to his heart demons but at least he could say no to Xiang Li. Plus the fact was that Ji Yuan really only wished for a friend and he did not think of anything else.

    When Ji Yuan had first acquired Xiang Li, she had warned him that she waspletely useless and asked him if he still wants to have her.

    Ji Yuan reply was sincere and funny; he had simply told her to be quiet and watch him perform. A Sword Saint like him has his own pride and he believes that he is the best.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled sweetly, "What brings my Jiajia to visit me today?"

    Jiajia slowly smiled, "You know that I have a purpose?"

    Xue Qianxue slowly put down her baby on her bed before she walked over to Jiajia, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka the Pce Divine Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is always so busy. Even if we are under the same roof, it is still impossible to talk with you."

    Jiajia sighed softly, "I am really busy¡­"

    Xue Qianxue interrupted her with a soft chuckle, "And now you are not?"

    Jiajia smiled, "I am still busy."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled with a nod, "So I guess that you are here because you are on official business, am I right?"

    Jiajia nodded as she started to hold onto Xue Qianxue''s hands gently, "You are right. I want you to take care of the other sisters and also¡­ Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "What do you mean? Jiajia, surely you are not nning to do anything reckless, am I right? This is so unlike you¡­ maybe you can tell me your ns and we can look into it together?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Jiajia shook her head slowly, "Among the sisters here, you are the strongest here and you are a great saintess of the purple lightning tribtion. So I want you to lead them out of the Eons Firmament Mountains and go into hiding until the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over."

    Xue Qianxue was upset, "You are really nning something and you are not telling me¡­"

    But Jiajia continued, "Remember that you have to persist until the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over. Although there will be many golden celestials that have perished in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but there will still be many, especially the strong great saints. They will be back stronger with ever with their profound treasures. Together, you can lead them to attack the Great Deste Divine Pce and to expose the traitors from the 12 major celestial ns in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Xue Qianxue was growing exasperated, "And what about you? You sound like you are no longer here and is preparing your funeral."

    Jiajia ignored her and said slowly, "You must not allow the Great Demon God toy his hands on you. Because you are the only one that has ever attained the Sacred Maiden Profound Art to the 9th level and he would want you to bear his demonic scions. Also, you must keep Little Princess out of his reach because he would sacrifice her if he is desperate enough to obtain more power from his Evil Veins Profound Art. A cultivator with the Evil Vein Profound Art is able to absorb another cultivator with the Evil Veins Profound Art."

    Xue Qianxue was shocked, "The Great Demon God is willing to sacrifice his daughter?!"

    Jiajia nodded slowly, "You can''t use emotion attachments to describe these immortal gods. They have no hearts and only craved for more immortal power to ascend as a Beyond Divinity God."

    Xue Qianxue asked unhappily, "Jiajia, please tell me your ns. I''ll promise not to tell the others¡­"

    All of a sudden Jiajia had coughed out golden blood and this shocked Xue Qianxue who asked, "Jiajia, what happens to you?"

    Jiajia had turned pale immediately but she slowly said, "Sister Qianxue, I am dying."

    Xue Qianxue was so startled that she took a step back, "Jia-jia, you don''t mean it. Right?"

    Jiajia sighed softly, "But don''t worry. I won''t allow the Great Demon God to get me..."

    She added silently: After all, I am the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice¡­

    Then she turned to look at the heavens above through the balcony window with a quiet prayer: Mother consort, I didn''t see you for a long time and I don''t think I ever will again¡­

    Xue Qianxue had suddenly hugged Jiajia from behind her back, "Sister Jiajia, I don''t know what to do if you are not around¡­"

    Jiajia sighed softly, "You are smarter than most here. I am sure that you will be able to. If necessary, you should ask Ji Yuan to seek the help of the Goddess Tear. This may be our only hope against the Great Demon God."

    Xue Qianxue said bitterly, "Can mere celestial cultivators like us hope to contest with the immortal power of these demonic beings?"

    Jiajia had turned around suddenly as she taken out a blue glowing artefact core and ced it in the hands of Xue Qianxue, "This is my Xiao Ruan''s artefact core. She is still alive but Ick the profound strength now to nurture her now. I hope that you can pass it to my Sister Sisi when she returns from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. She is stronger than Ji Yuan and so is my other sister, Fan Yuqing."

    Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "We can depend on them?"

    Jiajia did not nod or shake her head but said instead, "There is something that I should tell you now. We are all the daughters of the Great God Pangu, the True God of the Immortal Divine Realm. The reason why we are here in the Celestial Realm is because we are born as a celestial and we can''t cultivate in the Immortal Realm."

    Xue Qianxue was gasping with shock, "Seriously?! You are the daughter of the Great God Pangu?! But you have sent them away to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    Jiajia slowly said, "It is because I didn''t want them to risk their own lives to save the Celestial Realm. They are not as strong as me."

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Aren''t they peaked great saintesses as well?"

    Jiajia exined slowly, "Like my Sister Sisi, we have the bloodlines of the Primeval Phoenix as our bloodline from our mother consort is the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. But I also have the True Primeval Phoenix and my bloodline is stronger than my mother consort and my sister. Therefore, I can easily use profound power that is greater than that of the 7th cultivation realm here. However, my 2 other sisters aren''t able to."

    Xue Qianxue was gasping with with disbelief when she had learnt that Saintess Fang Zhenfei has an immortal background, "Jiajia, you''re also the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. You have the most extraordinary background..."

 Chapter 715 Xia Jiajia (1)

    ?

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, at the Great Forsaken Basin where the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea is located.

    Xia Jiajia had just arrived in her White Paragon Xuanfeng, a four winged phoenix with six reflective golden tails.

    She was dressed in a brilliant blue heavenly celestium silk dress and she had arrived alone.

    Whether the information that was offered by the Evil Cultivation Pce was important or not, it was irreverent to her because she did not have any much time left.

    Like the Eons Firmament Mountains, the Great Forsaken Basin was inessible by foot as it was surrounded by oceans of deste mist and could only be traversed by flight.

    And in one of the oceans of deste mist, a gigantic deste red eye was formed by the abyssal maelstrom that hadsted for thousands of years and this ce was called the Abyssal Maelstrom.

    Inside this dangerous Abyssal Maelstrom that were shing with dangerous lightning continuously was located the Great Deste Divine Pce where the Great Demon God Hong Meng was.

    Xia Jiajia had arrived back at this location again, after an absence of several months. (See Chapter 308-309)

    At that time, she had challenged the Deste Dragon God Longdi and sacrificed her golden core to snatch back the artefact core of her Xiao Ruan from him. Once that was done, she had quickly fled.

    She had plenty of help from her other sisters at that time.

    But this time, she was alone.

    When she had arrived, her White Paragon Xuanfeng was withdrawn back into her spirit animus as she floated above the Abyssal Maelstrom and she had disyed her celestial-step divine sword.

    It was weirdly quiet and she hade directly in the open skies instead of under any cover.

    By right, the detection arrays of the Great Deste Divine Pce would have already sounded its rm and the denizens were prepared for battle.

    She mustered her divine echo profound art to resonate throughout the Abyssal Seas, "Does the Great Demon God has no champions to oppose mying?"

    The red eye of the Abyssal Sea had suddenly opened a passage from within and the thunderous profound voice of the Great Demon God could be heardughing, "I have never expected the Saintess Fang Zhenfei to deliver herself to me¡­"

    "¡­ so are you here to fight or to talk terms? If you are here to talk terms, I can give you a generous offer by sparing everyone in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    "I am here to fight you and I prefer to be known as Xia Jiajia now." Xia Jiajia interrupted as she echoed back, "Do you have the guts to fight me or do you want me to shame you in front of your henchman bying to you instead?"

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly as his echo filled the heavens, "You don''t have to bait me by arousing my anger. I have expected so and that is why I have opened a passage for you to my Great Divine Deste Pce. But do you have the guts toe for me instead?"

    Xia Jiajia hummed coldly as she flew down into the middle of the Abyssal Sea where a passage had been formed from within.

    She shed through the passage with a great speed and sped through a hundred miles of deste mists before saw an opening.

    The continuous brilliant white erratic lightning that was shing all over the Abyssal Sea did not seem to be attacking her because this passage was opened by the Great Demon God and therefore immortal array here did not attack her.

    Xia Jiajia had not expected that she would be entering the Abyssal Sea in such an easy manner but she knew that her enemy was ensuring that this time she would not escape.

    Escaping was never her option.

    She was here to buy herpatriots the time to make their escape until the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was over.

    She could not afford to wait for the Death God Mingwang to return.

    And she was praying that the Great Demon God Hong Meng was really serious injured and he had no profound strength to spare as he had to maintain the immortal barrier to seal off the Immortal Realm

    Xia Jiajia quicklynded on the t terrain that was below the Abyssal Sea and she could see abyssal mountains that towered to the heavens and there was lightning that were shing overhead the thick deste mists that now formed the heavens.

    In front of her was a gigantic fortress with formidable walls that stood 10 miles in height and there were gigantic steps leading to it.

    This was the Great Deste Divine Pce, the immortal profound ship of the Great Demon God.

    Xia Jiajia was startled at the great size of this Great Deste Divine Pce; she had never expected it to be so huge and the scale of its walls were mind blogging. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Only the legendary profound ship of the Deste Immortals was bigger and it was called the Ancient Fortress; it was not just a fortress but an entire city and there were 12 citadels in there, each representing a powerful Citadel Lord of the city.

    Her mother consort had once shown her the imagery of the Ancient Fortress as it returned to the Immortal Realm tounch an immortal invasion.

    The battle between the Deste Immortals and the Righteous Immortals were brutal; there were many deaths among the immortals and the three known realms were shaken by this terrible battle.

    Nothing in the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm was spared from that terrible destruction.

    It was irony that she had actually met 1 of the Citadel Lords in the Celestial Realm and she was the Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng.

    Her mother consort the Great Goddess Celestial Alice had fought with the Abyssal Null Goddess and severely wounded her, causing her to flee to the Celestial Realm to escape the wrath of the Righteous Immortals.

    She was not the only Deste Immortal to have escaped to the Celestial Realm and there were scores of them pretending to be celestial great saints.

    And Xia Jiajia knows that the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa were one of the Deste Immortals that had escaped to the Celestial Realm.

    It is impossible for the Righteous Immortals to seek out the Deste Immortals in the Celestial Realm because the Celestial Realm is simply too vast and the Deste Immortals can simply retreat down the divide of the mountains where the deste mists are, instead of being up in the spiritual rich mountains.

    If the Righteous Immortals are to fight the Deste Immortals down the deste mist, then they will be at a disadvantage since they cannot replenish their profound strength by cultivating in the dense deste auras.

    Right now, this was exactly what Xia Jiajia was experiencing; in this ce, there was virtually no spiritual aura for her to tap upon.

    In fact, in this ce, she was no longer able to fly at will with her spirit animus as the deste auras were too dense.

    She quickly shed to the top of the steps of the gigantic walls and she was greeted by the great towering domes of the Great Deste Divine Pce that were at the far reach of the tform that were front of her.

    She was greeted by another sight at the tform and some 300 draconian cultivators were already waiting for her.

    All of them have the profound strength of a saint and at least a dozen of them had profound strength that was greater than the 7th cultivation realm!

    These draconian cultivators all had a murderous look and it was because they were waiting for her here to avenge the death of their Deste Dragon God Longdi!

    Xia Jiajia charged into their midst as she disyed her Hundred Flower Divine Strike, as she swept her profound power through the legions of draconian cultivators¡­

    "Don''t let her live!"

    "Avenge our Deste Dragon God!"

    "Rip her to pieces!"

    Many of the draconian cultivators were now undergoing bodily transformation and disying formidable profound power.

    As Xia Jiajia disyed her Hundred Flower Divine Strike, she was dismayed that there were suddenly 3 powerful draconian cultivators that shed forward to neutralize her profound attack halfway and these 3 powerful draconian cultivators were also the elders of these draconian cultivators.

    She had knocked back 10 of the draconian cultivators before her profound attack was halted by thebine profound power of these 3 draconian cultivators.

    And even then, 7 of the draconian cultivators had actually survived her profound attack because none of them were ordinary celestial cultivators and they had far stronger bodies and bones than the celestials.

    Author Note:

    1. I actually want to write about this story arc a long time ago because Jiajia is actually the main leading heroine in ''The Romantic Cultivator''.

    Maybe this maye as a surprise to many since Ling Feiyue has the most screen time with Ji Yuan:X

    Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng probably have the second most screen time *chuckle*.

 Chapter 716 Xia Jiajia (2)

    ?

    Inside the throne room of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng was delighted and he had been this delighted for ages; it was because the Saintess Fang Zhenfei was now fighting her way through his Great Deste Divine Pce.

    He was now viewing the battle imagery of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei as she fought against the 300 draconian cultivators that were surrounding her.

    Next to him, was the Goddess Mel as well.

    It was because the Goddess Mel was sitting naked as she cuddled to the Great Demon God and she was using her yin essence to aid the Great Demon God to quickly repair his cultivation core.

    And she was fine with the Great Demon God using her for this purpose because he is a True God.

    The Goddess Mel asked curiously as her breasts were swinging to and forth, "You are not afraid that the Saintess Fang Zhenfei will be killed by them? Then you can''t dual cultivate with her anymore. Is it alright to use draconian cultivators? They are our elite guards and they will surely be out for blood to avenge their Deste Dragon God. Surely, she can''t fight all of them. I can''t."

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "Even if she is dead, I can still pluck her yin essence with the cultivation of my Evil Veins. Alive or just a corpse, it doesn''t matter to me. But then, I don''t really expect Saintess Fang Zhenfei to fall so easily in her first battle."

    The Goddess Mel was surprised, "Oh?"

    The Great Demon God continued with a cold smile, "Therefore for these draconian cultivators, I have no more use for them anymore since the Deste Dragon God Longdi isn''t around anymore and they have no respect for me as their True Deste God¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Mel was gasping at the battle imagery, "Look¡­"

    The Great Demon God was stroking his long beard, "Interesting¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Xia Jiajia had now disyed her spirit animus which radiated an icy blue light but unlike thest battle with the Deste Dragon God Longdi, this was not the spirit animus of her Xiao Ruan the Spirit Blue Phoenix because she had given it away to Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue for safekeeping.

    Although she had entered the Dream Trial to revive her Xiao Ruan but using her as her spirit animus was still not the same as before she was killed and she could not close the gap between the Deste Dragon God and herself.

    But how could she still be able to disy her icy profound aura?

    It was because she had the bloodline of the Primeval Phoenix that was inherited from her mother consort the Great Goddess Celestial Alice.

    But the bloodline that she was now disying today was the True Primeval Phoenix.

    Bloodlines actually weakened over time and she had no idea why she was able to disy the True Primeval Phoenix bloodline, especially when her mother consort was only a second generation true immortal since the beginning of time.

    But at this moment, she was going to burn all her life force into triggering her True Primeval Phoenix Bloodline.

    There was a sudden blue sigil that had suddenly appeared on her forehead and even her golden eyes had suddenly turned a brilliant blue.

    The draconian cultivators that were surrounding her were startled and they could sense that their opponent had her cultivation realm suddenly increased to the peak of the 8th cultivation realm!

    The 12 elders among the draconian cultivators were not too worried because they too could harness the profound power of the 8th cultivation realm after their bodily transformation and they were originally 8th cultivation realm immortals. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Moreover, they were also draconian immortals, renowned for the toughness of their body and bones; the body of an 8th immortal positioning draconian cultivator is far stronger than a typical 9th immortal positioning cultivator.

    Also protecting them were their formidable inherent profound auras that was stronger than the celestial cultivators.

    In short, a draconian cultivator is actually equally as hard to kill whenpared to the same rank deste monster!

    Fighting against these draconian cultivators were like fighting against 12 Number 5 and almost 300 great saints at the same time.

    Therefore Xia Jiajia had no choice but to burn her life force in order to invoke her True Primeval Phoenix Bloodline.

    She began to swing her celestial sword and a mile long of blue profound energies streaked all around her, shing and dispelling all the other profound attacks that were raining upon her by the draconian cultivators.

    This blue streak of profound energies also burnt all the other draconian cultivators as though their profound defenses were paper.

    In that split second, the blue light of Xia Jiajia''s profound animus was like a blue sun that zed upon the tform and it was too brilliant to look upon.

    For the draconian cultivators that were not instantly killed by her, the rest were pulverized by the enveloping radiance of her blue spirit animus.

    None of the draconian cultivators had survived.

    The Evil Cultivation Master, the Sagess Alyssa and a thousand cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce that were watching the battle imagery in the Great Deste Divine Pce were all stunned and looking confused; it was because they were supposed to be next group that would fight the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and they had never seen anything like this before.

    The Evil Cultivation Master had schemed to trick the Saintess Fang Zhenfei intoing to the Great Deste Divine Pce and there, he would then pretend to lose and he would lead her to the throne room to fight the Great Demon God.

    Unknown to everyone, the Evil Cultivation Master had long regained his half-step 9th immortal positioning and he was only feigning weakness.

    The Evil Cultivation Master gasped with disbelief, "This is beyond divinity profound power. It is impossible¡­"

    The Sagess Alyssa gasped anxiously to the Evil Cultivation Master, "How now?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master had momentarily turned ashen before he shook his head to answer, "No, we all got tricked. It is impossible that she has the inner spiritual sea to even use such a heaven-defying profound power. Her true cultivation is only at the peak of the 7th cultivation realm. She must have paid a heavy price for this and she must be really vulnerable now¡­"

    True enough, the celestial sword that was in Xia Jiajia''s hand had suddenly scattered to pieces a few blinks of an eyeter and even her brilliant profound aura had suddenly vanished and there was darkness once more.

    Xia Jiajia had suddenly coughed out golden blood as she fell weakly onto her knees!

    She had lost all her profound animus in that very instant!

    Sagess Alyssa said softly to the Evil Cultivation Master, "Shall we go and engage her now?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master whispered, "We don''t have to take a risk. Let Number 2 confront her first¡­"

    Sagess Alyssa said with a startled look after viewing the battle imagery, "I think this won''t be unnecessary anymore¡­"

    It was because Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night was suddenly seen standing at the other end of the tform and she was walking toward the Saintess Fang Zhenfei!

 Chapter 717 Xia Jiajia Vs. Number 2 Murong Yue

    ?

    At the throne room of the Great Deste Divine Pce;

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng had seen the brilliant blue that was being disyed by the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and he was as startled as the Evil Cultivation Master that was also viewing the same battle imagery at the outer dome of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    He was momentarily stunned by the scene while the Goddess Mel was gasping with disbelief, "Is this the profound power that is from a beyond divinity entity?"

    The old countenance of the Great Demon God Hong Meng was grave and he now saying coldly, "It may be the time for me to act¡­"

    He had suddenly pushed the naked Goddess Mel on the table, tting her big breasts while he was thrusting wildly from behind and was using her long hair as a harness by pulling madly it, "Orgasm quickly! I want your yin essence now! Whore, orgasm now!"

    The Goddess Mel began to moan lewdly and spurted her honey juices nonstop¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Fierce lightning exploded throughout the clouds of the deste mist above but on this tform where the Great Deste Divine Pce was, there was a vacuum.

    And in this vacuum, a fierce battle had just been ensured and the 300 burnt bodies of the draconian cultivators were now scattered across the tform and even some of their immortal bones had been turned into heavenly relics as though they had just been through a failed ascension.

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night had suddenly appeared on the tform and she was walking toward Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Xia Jiajia with a murderous look.

    She had appeared when the blue radiance of Saintess Fang Zhenfei had disappeared and also when the celestial-step divine sword in her grasp was also shattered by her own sheer profound power at the same time.

    Xia Jiajia swiped the dripping golden blood that was at her trembling lips as she slowly lifted herself up to face this new threat.

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night had appeared because she knew that the Evil Cultivation Master was too gutless to y the bait that he had intended.

    In her heart, she had despised the Evil Cultivation Master and even looked down upon his deste immortal race.

    Only her demonic race was the true superior race in the entire Deste Divine Realm.

    The irony was that she had the intention to kill the Great Demon God Hong Meng today by aiding the deste immortal race.

    She knew very well that she was a depraved sexual ve of the Evil Cultivation Master and she greatly desired his touches now and without his yang essence in her body, it was totally unbearable to her.

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night said coldly to Saintess Fang Zhenfei as she disyed her 8th cultivation realm profound aura, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei, today I shall have your head! Know that you are killed by me, Number 2 of the demonic personal guard of the Great Demon God."

    Xia Jiajia hummed coldly, "If you value your dear life, go away! I am sure that you have already seen the deaths of these immortal draconian cultivators. Although you are strong but you are not stronger than all of them."

    Number 2 Murong Yueughed coldly as she lifted her divine sword to point at her opponent, "I am afraid that you have misjudged this time. My true cultivation realm is at the middle 9th immortal positioning and I am just being restricted here to the 8th cultivation profound strength. However, my innate profound defense is still at the 9th immortal positioning. Therefore, I am not the same as them¡­"

    Al of a sudden she had suddenly shed next to Xia Jiajia and she had executed her Lunar Crescent de profound sword art, sending three powerful profound energies that were shaped like curved des that moved erratically and exploding on the ground that were aimed at her opponent.

    Xia Jiajia was startled at the unpredictable movement of these profound attacks that had cornered all her retreat points but still she had managed to shed away by lifting her profound fingers to deflect slightly one of the curved des¡­

    Number 2 Murong Yue''s forehead was also burning with the sigil of her dark sword spirit as she relentlessly pursued Saintess Fang Zhenfei and taunting her, "Perhaps if you can still use that dazzling move just now, you can perhaps win. So why aren''t you disying your profound aura now? Or is it because you are incapable of using it now?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She had already analyzed the powerful beyond divinity profound attack that was made by Saintess Fang Zhenfei and it seemed that there were several conditions in order for it to happen.

    Firstly, Saintess Fang Zhenfei had to disy her blue profound aura first.

    Secondly, Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s golden eyes had to turn blue and there was also a mysterious blue sigil that was on her forehead as well.

    Thirdly, there was a blink of an eye when she was harnessing this great profound power.

    Therefore, she was actually not afraid that Saintess Fang Zhenfei would be able to use this great profound power because she had noticed that this great profound power also had the added effect of consuming all her profound animus, rendering her defenseless as she was now.

    The very reason why she was also filled with murderous hatred for Saintess Fang Zhenfei was because she originally had the intention to seek her out in the Eons Firmament Mountains to challenge her (See Chapter 637-638).

    But instead of finding Saintess Fang Zhenfei, she was found by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily and she was humiliated in front of her very own demonic race by her.

    Not only that, even her best friend Number 4 Xu Xianzi was beheaded by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    From that point onward, she hated Saintess Fang Zhenfei, hated Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and even her own demonic race!

    And that was why she had secretly even secretly approached the Evil Cultivation Master to be even stronger and to nt the metamorphosis core inside of her.

    The price was of course that she had to be the living furnace of the Evil Cultivation Master and to be a depraved sexual ve.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hummed coldly, "I shall not let you pass¡­"

    Saintess Fang Zhenfei had suddenly disyed her golden profound animus and she had struck Number 2 Murong Yue, sending her to fly off and exploded with a loud rumble.

    She was quite startled because she had expected her opponent to be knocked slightly off if her profound attack was sessful, not expecting her opponent to fly off since her opponent was actually an immortal of the 9th cultivation realm.

    In fact, she was also expecting herself to be overpowered by this Number 2 when she disyed her counter attack.

    Just as she was looking confused whether to make another move against the fallen Number 2 or to make her way into the Great Deste Divine Pce, a dark looming presence had suddenly shed forth from within the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    This dark looming presence was none other than the Great Demon God Hong Meng!

    This was the very first time that Xia Jiajia had seen this terrifying old true god of the Deste Divine Realm and she was truly terrified; it was because his dark demonic aura was extremely dense and this was a peaked 9th cultivation realm immortal god!

    But her heart refused to falter because she was here to cause as much destruction as possible to the immortal arrays that were here or to grievously injured the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God said to Number 2, "Back off now. You are still injured and may not be a match for Saintess Fang Zhenfei. Today I shall give her the honor of battling me."

    Number 2 Murong Yue coughed out weakly as she staggered backward but in secret, there was a glimmering in her red demonic eyes and she was actually smiling in her heart.

    This was even better since she did not even need to lure Saintess Fang Zhenfei to the throne room where the Great Demon God was located.

    The reason why she had feigned weakness was because she did not want anyone to know that she had sincepletely recovered from her injuries from Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao with the aid of the metamorphosis core that was inside her.

    And of course, she had also plenty of dual cultivation aid from the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa as well.

 Chapter 718 Xia Jiajia Vs. The Great Demon God (1)

    ?

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng said coldly to Saintess Fang Zhenfei, "Daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, I have thought if I should pluck you alive or dead. But with that profound power that you have just exercised, it is better for you to be dead rather than alive. Unless of course, you are willing to submit willingly to me to be my depraved ve."

    He smirked coldly as he appraised the astonishing beautiful form of the Saintess Zhenfei, "You are indeed much more beautiful in person than viewing you through the battle imageries. I can imagine you to be even more beautiful if you are stripped naked in front of me and disying your wanton look at me, begging me to pluck your yin essence and submit to me as my depraved ve."

    Xia Jiajia: ¡­

    Xia Jiajia: ¡­

    Xia Jiajia: ¡­

    She did not dare to attack the Great Demon God now because she needed some time to muster all her profound strength; the powerful profound attack that she had used earlier had not only drained almost all her inner spiritual sea but had drained her vital life force energies. It was a profound power that she would not use in normal circumstances because it would destroy her painstaking cultivation attainment.

    The Great Demon God waved his hand and coldly smiled, "So what is your decision? Submit to me or die fighting me?"

    Xia Jiajia hummed coldly, "You know my answer. But I don''t understand this¡­"

    The Great Demon God frowned, "Continue."

    Xia Jiajia continued weakly, "Why should a great true god of the Deste Divine Realm wants to hide in the Celestial Realm, behind the dark veil of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Indeed, you have managed to hide so well that for a long time, I''ve thought that my enemy is only the Evil Cultivation Master."

    The Great Demon Godughed heartily, "That is because the Celestial Realm is a way better ce for my demonic race. Look at the vast quantities of deste mists that divided the Celestial Realm into the lower abyss and the higher celestial. This is only too perfect¡­"

    Then he clutched a fist and said, "Unlike my Deste Divine Realm, one half of it is always a desert and under the eternal sun. The other half is always covered in darkness. The Great Beyond Goddess has been most unfair in her allocation! My demonic race is cursed to dwell only in a deste divine realm of the immortals¡­"

    He started to raise his terrifying voice as he thundered, "In my Deste Divine Realm, there are hundreds of deste races that have to battle each other for whatever little cultivation resources in the Deste Divine Realm. It seems that the Great Beyond Goddess has since forgotten that the Deste Divine Realm is 1 of the 6 major immortal realms."

    Xia Jiajia answered coldly, "No one has ever seen the Great Beyond Goddess. It isn''t the fault of the Immortal Realm of the Ninth Heavens or the Celestial Realm that your own immortal divine realm is in such a deste state. The immortals of the celestial race have their own hands full with the troubles of the Deste Immortals and it is you that have instigated them tounch an invasion against the Righteous Immortals¡­"

    Then she sighed softly, "We have thought that the three true gods of the Deste Divine Realm would join them in the invasion but you are all actually hiding in the Celestial Realm. We are so wrong!"

    The Great Demon God smiled coldly, "The Deste Immortals are not the same as our Deste Races. Whether they are Deste Immortals or Righteous Immortals, they are all celestial immortals. They are just red herrings for us to distract and weaken the celestial immortals¡­"

    Then he revealed his secret n, "But don''t worry. Soon I''ll make the Celestial Realm into a higher immortal realm and my demonic race shall have a new home to cultivate and to plunder."

    Xia Jiajia weakly said, "And one of your ns also depend upon the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, am I right?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Great Demon God smiled wryly, "The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is an immortal profound ship that descends from your Immortal Realm. Once it descends, I can then nail down the immortal passage that is being forced opened¡­"

    "And you have sealed it with the profound power of your immortal arrays¡­" Xia Jiajia gasped as she interrupted; the pieces were now making sense to her but it was already toote.

    The Great Demon God nodded before saying coldly, "I am also nning to be the new master of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when it can no longer returns to the Immortal Realm of the Ninth Heavens. This is a little tricky for me to aplish but it is not impossible. So, if the Death God Mingwang can obtain for me the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, then this will save me a lot of troubles in bing the new master of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Xia Jiajia began to sigh deeply, "Everything is already toote¡­"

    There were now no immortals to aid the Celestial Realm. Even if the immortals could somehow descend to the Celestial Realm, they would be restricted to the 7th cultivation profound strength for a long time.

    As for Great Demon God, his side had already been nning for thousands of years and they were quietly cultivating this whole time to ovee the restrictions that were on them.

    Xia Jiajia was suddenly sighing, "You didn''t tell me everything, am I right?

    The Great Demon God smiled coldly, "Is it important?"

    Xia Jiajia said slowly, "You are nning to be a beyond divinity true god by absorbing the vast profound cultivation of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, am I right?"

    The Great Demon God was suddenly smiling, "Saintess Fang Zhenfei or should I say Saintess Xia Jiajia is indeed very smart. But this is already toote¡­"

    Then he snapped his fingers as he smiled wryly at her, "Also there is now one more option for me to be a True Divinity now. Just now, you have just disyed the profound power of a True Divinity. Therefore, your yin essence may just be the key to it. So, I can just pluck your yin essence for that."

    Xia Jiajia: ¡­

    "I will never submit to you!" Xia Jiajia hummed coldly as she disyed all her profound strength into a golden profound aura and summoned her Xuanfeng spirit entity for herst battle.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng appraised Saintess Fang Zhenfei to see if she had a change of heart before he said coldly, "It has a long time since I have been in battle, mainly because there are no one in the Deste Divine Realm that can survive a battle with me. Today I shall grant you this special privilege of making your first move against me first¡­"

    Author Note

    1. The battle between the Great Demon God and Xia Jiajia is about to take ce. Can you guess the oue?

 Chapter 719 Xia Jiajia Vs. The Great Demon God (2)

    ?

    Xia Jiajia had already raised her broken divine sword high up when she had heard the Great Demon God Hong Meng said to her, "Today I shall grant you this special privilege of making your first move against me¡­"

    A powerful outburst of profound life force energies began to flow through her broken divine sword to reform into a sword of profound power.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng hummed coldly, "Life force energies sword? You will only be sapping away your life force away and this amount of profound power is not enough to hurt me. It seems that your reserve of inner spiritual sea is already spent. But I apud your tenacity. Come and show me your first move!"

    Xia Jiajia only had enough strength for two major moves and she was going to take her chance to hurt the Great Demon God.

    She inhaled slowly as her Xuanfeng spirit animus exploded into a bright golden animus to lend her the profound strength to burn her life force as she mustered the sanctorum power of her broken divine sword into a blue streak of profound energies the Hundred Flower Divine Strike.

    A power wave of terrifying profound power immediately exploded from her broken sword into a point-nk straight line toward the Great Demon God, rendering evasion impossible.

    This straight line of concentrated profound power was massive and no less than dangerous than her blue spirit animus which she was now incapable of disying since this was her life force energies.

    It exploded with a brilliant streak onto the Great Demon God directly but all of a sudden, this straight line of profound power had swayed from its path and was deflected with the mere right hand of the Great Demon God and it soon dissipated into nothingness up to the heavens!

    Xia Jiajia was startled; it was because she did not even as much as dent the Great Demon God and the Great Demon God was able to deflect her vast profound energies with his mere hand!

    She had suddenly realized that the disparity between the Great Demon God and her was indeed vast and moreover her opponent was supposed to be injured and restricted in the Celestial Realm¡­

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly, "You can''t hurt me, much less kill me with this. Is this really your best profound technique?"

    Then he smirked, "I believe that this is my turn now¡­"

    And immediately he had raised two profound energy ball from each of his hands to hurl at Xia Jiajia.

    Xia Jiajia was startled that the Great Demon God could move again in such a short notice after deflecting her strongest profound technique that she had developed into the sanctorum power of her celestial-step divine sword.

    She mustered her remaining profound strength as she quickly evaded the two profound energy balls which exploded in a big radius near her; if it is just an ordinary saint then this profound attack would have burnt all his profound animus and fatally injuring him and the second profound energy ball would then kill him.

    Because the explosion radius was huge, she had to raise her divine sword to defend herself from the profound st and causing her already faltering profound strength to further sapped away.

    The Great Demon God was suddenly smiling coldly, "I wonder how long you can evade my attacks¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had hurled one profound energy ball after another, in quick session and there was suddenly more than a dozen of these profound energy balls that were now flying toward Xia Jiajia.

    Xia Jiajia waspletely startled as the profound energy balls began to form a storm of profound energy balls that were homing toward her as it exploded around her or directly struck her.

    This caused Xia Jiajia to be thrown back when she was struck and her Xuanfeng profound animus was evenpletely burnt away by the fierce profound energies and in the next moment, she was lying t on the ground and sundered by the profound energies.

    Most of the profound ball energies were actually hurled off target on purpose by the Great Demon God; it was because he did not want to kill Saintess Fang Zhenfei so quickly and he knows that she was now incapable of withstanding his further profound attacks.

    Xia Jiajia was in tears as shey motionless and without any profound strength to even move her feeble broken body.

    She was weeping hot silent tears not because of her forting woeful fate but because she did not have the chance to say her farewell to Ji Yuan¡­

    And many more things that she had actually wanted to tell him¡­

    How she had once chanced upon his shaven portrait in the auction house and her icy heart was moved by his beautiful looks¡­

    She was an icy maiden that had never thought of looking for a cultivation partner one day and she had found most of the celestial males were too couth and arrogant.

    She did not want anyone to know that she was the Sacred Saintess Sect Leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect or the mysterious Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce.

    All the celestial males in the Celestial Realm were beneath her because she was the noble princess of the celestial race and she was the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, a former divine ruler of the Ninth Heavens, the immortal realm of the celestial race.

    Her destiny lies in the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm and not in the Celestial Realm.

    She knows more about the mysterious Ninth Heavens than any of the celestials who are all trying to make their ascension to the immortal realm above; they don''t even know the name of the immortal realm above that they are ascending to. To them, it is just the Immortal Realm or the Immortal Divine Realm.

    Many of them did not even know about the existence of the other middle heavenly realms that are simr to the Celestial Realm or the other immortal divine realms until they gained the knowledge of these realms in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    However, the mysticws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth prevented the celestials that ''know'' about the other different heavenly and immortal realms from telling anyone about their knowledge. They can only experience the lower mortal realms and the other heavenly realms through the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    As for the immortal realms, they can only gain knowledge of it but not visit it because the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth could not send them before their immortal ascension.

    But at this moment, Xia Jiajia was not thinking about her fallen destiny but a missed opportunity to be with Ji Yuan¡­

    This Ji Yuan who is renowned more as a Great Poet than his Sword Saint identity.

    Also, he is an arrogant young master too and have many bad vices like drinking, swearing loudly and was even uncouth.

    He is just like any of the typical golden celestials.

    What is more, he is actually quite proud of his beautiful beard just like the other bearded cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, something that she did not find fancy with.

    He is just too typical¡­

    And moreover, his cultivation sucks big time, his soul sea is too impure and he is also too poor.

    She really did not know whether tough or cry when she had learnt that Ji Yuan had ended up owing the Mo n 1 billion high grade spirit stones for entering the Dream Trial.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He was actually forced to enter the Dream Trial by Xue Qianxue so that he could have a fighting chance against the Old Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce to cleanse his impure soul sea; he ended up passing the Dream Trial with an impossible flying color result and shocking the Mo n.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was actually thinking of screwing her own patriarch Mo n and to trick the Mo n into paying 1 billion high grade spirit stones to activate the Dream Trial, just to give Ji Yuan a fighting chance.

    She could never imagine that she would end up helping Ji Yuan to be in a 1 billion high grade spirit stones or 1000 spirit jade stones huge debt.

    Either Xue Qianxue or Ji Yuan, had expected that the ''Old Master'' of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce would actually be Xia Jiaqing aka Xia Jiajia herself and that she did not have the intention of killing Ji Yuan at all.

    It was because Xia Jiajia had wanted to test Ji Yuan to see if he was worthy for her or not. And to see if he was willing to risk his untapped long celestial life for ''Xia Jiaqing''.

    She had to admit that she was indeed quite moved in her heart when Ji Yuan had epted her duel and had even dared to go to the Lofty World End Peak for his duel.

    She had actually purposely given him many chances to run away from this duel but he still turned up despite knowing that he did not stand a chance against a peaked great saint.

    Ji Yuan was actually preparing to die to save everyone at the Five Heavens Peak.

    Since then, her icy heart hadpletely melted in front of Ji Yuan but this was something that she did not want to tell him because if he knows, he would be boastful to no ends.

    It was because she had actually studied him for almost 200 years and she knows him better than he knows himself.

    She had purchased Ji Yuan''s beardless portrait in the auction house 200 years ago due to impulse. But the more she looked at this beardless portrait, the more unsettled her icy heart was.

    Therefore, after some time, she wanted to y a prank on Ji Yuan and to have a chance to talk to him in person.

    Another reason why she had wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Ji Yuan was because he was famously a bachelor that liked to talk bad about the renown maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and it was no wonder that many in the Deste Celestial Fraternity had thought that he was actually a gay.

    That was why she had arranged for Ling Feiyue to be disguised as a ''man'' to make Ji Yuan feelfortable.

    To her startled surprise, he had actually touched her butt on their very first meeting (See Chapter 12).

    This was actually not the most startling to her; it was the fact that she could not stop his hand from touching her butt that startled her the most; she was shocked that Ji Yuan''s reflexes were so astonishing startling that he was unlike any of the golden celestials that she had previously fought against.

    She had recalled that day¡­

    He had chuckled to her, "Isn''t this a little too soon? We have just met. This isn''t too romantic, don''t you think so? But if that is what you want, then¡­"

    She was startled as she caught his hand that was on her butt, "You! What are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan was startled too as he stammered, "I am just trying to warm us up."

    She began to smile weakly as she pushed his hand away, "It isn''t what you think it is."

    Ji Yuan was gasping as he took a step back, "You are attached to someone already?"

    She had chuckled softly, "I''m not. In fact, you are just my type."

    But actually, her hidden thought that day was, "This Ji Yuan is not a gay?!"

    How did all her reports about him were all wrong?

    In her reports, he would refuse to touch any maidens or associate with any other maidens, fleeing from them as though he was seeing them as scary ghosts.

    She did not know that if Ji Yuan was here today, he would tell her that seeing her for the very first had actually ignited something in him.

    When Ji Yuan first caught sight of Xia Jiajia, he had already decided that he had to take her as his cultivation partner and that was why he was willing to give her his precious sword, his sect heritage treasure to her as a betrothal gift.

    He could not exin why he had a sudden feeling for Xia Jiajia after three failed rtionships in the past and that was why he was always in thepany of his drinking brothers like Xiao Muhan and Guo Taiming.

    Xia Jiajia had suddenly many things more to tell to Ji Yuan¡­

    But she could not because he was not with her and her hot tears wetted her face, sending her to tremble and giving her broken body some life¡­

    She had suddenly realized at that time the immerse pressure that Ji Yuan had to face when he had to fight her as the ''Old Master''. It was especially so when Mo Ming the Diviner had told Ji Yuan before and after his experiences in the Dream Trial that he would not be able to win his hopeless duel.

    And his maidens were cursing him at the Lofty World End Peak:

    "He is stupid!"

    "Really an idiot!"

    "Why did we have toe here with him in the first ce?"

    "Who cares about the destruction of the Five Heavens Peaks?"

    "What is martial honor?"

    "He already knows Diviner Mo Ming''s prophecy and yet he is so foolhardy toe¡­"

    But still, Ji Yuan did not give up his fighting spirit as he confronted the ''Old Master''.

 Chapter 720 Xia Jiajia Vs. The Great Demon God (3)

    ?

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng had walked calmly toward the fallen Saintess Fang Zhenfei and he was smirking coldly, "I have thought that the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice can fare better this pathetic state. You are nothing but a crybaby. I am going to strip you naked and parade you in front of all my minions. I''ll let you be humiliated and I shall pluck your yin essence like a whore in this ce¡­"

    Xia Jiajia screamed and wept aloud, "I didn''t weep for you! Ji Yuan did not give up. I won''t give up too¡­"

    Her fighting spirit was aroused as her memories of Ji Yuan had caused her already still body to tremble, lending her a little strength¡­

    Ji Yuan had not given up his fighting spirit when he was facing his certain death and she was also not going to give up on her fighting spirit too.

    All of a sudden, she had managed muster her remaining strength to burn all of her life force energies in a brilliant blue re and she had turned herself into a fiery furnace¡­

    Her hot tears did not stop and her icy heart was bleeding but instead of growing cold, she felt a blissful warmth as she sacrificed her life for everyone, just like what Ji Yuan would do in the past.

    She did not have the strength for words and she could only silently mutter: Ji Yuan, live well¡­ and farewell...

    This was her only regret in this life.

    Herst thoughts were not if herst profound attack could kill the Great Demon God but instead, she was thinking tearfully of Ji Yuan just before she had sundered herself to nothingness¡­

    She had chosen to end this way because her life was seeping away gradually due to her grievous injuries after her battle with the Deste Dragon God Longdi and she did not want to tell her other sisters about this lest they be anxious; to them and the many cultivators in the Eons Firmament Mountains, she was like their only hope after her victory against the Deset Dragon God Longdi.

    But the Deste Dragon God Longdi was a half-step True Divinity, there was no way for her to escape unscathered especially when her true cultivation realm was only at the peak of the 7th cultivation realm...

    Herst silence words were: Ji Yuan... you are already the romantic cultivator of my heart...

    Before long, in the next blink of an eye, she had exploded like a thunderous blue nova that shook the entire tform and even the earth below¡­

    Surprisingly, the only thing that had survived her own sundering were her hot tears that seemed to flutter upward.

    The Great Demon God was startled that Saintess Fang Zhenfei was still capable of using this true divinity profound power of hers and he quickly raised his profound strength to defend himself from the sudden blue nova that had urred¡­

    This point-nk blue nova was so powerful that it could even kill any lesser immortals instantly.

    But it was the Great Demon God in question here; the blue nova had only knocked him hard across the tform and causing him to sustain heavy injuries. But it could not kill him because he was after all a half-step True Divinity.

    The Great Demon God slowly got on his footings and he was sighing heavily, "She has rather killed herself and disappear into oblivion rather than allowing me to pluck her¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had quickly turned back and saw that a gruesome humanoid monster shing at twice at him with her hands that were shaped like a de!

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng was sent flying backward with heavy wounds and he looked startled; it was because his profound defense had actually been prated? Not even Saintess Fang Zhenfei was able to injure him to this extend.

    He got another shock as he muttered, "Number 2?"

    This gruesome humanoid monster was indeed Number 2 and her face was elongated, there were sharp rows of teeth as she opened her jaws with hissing sounds.

    Even her hands looked more like ws now and there were eight long des on her back.

    She looked nothing like a demonic race anymore.

    And this change was permanent due to the metamorphosis core that was given to her.

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night hissed, "Indeed¡­"

    As the Great Demon God weakly stood up, he said coldly. "You dare to attack your master? Have you forgotten that I am the immortal god of the demonic race?"

    Number 2 hissed as she shed with great speed and she was next to the Great Demon God in the next instant, smashing him with a loud thunderous profound explosion onto the ground. "No longer. Now¡­ I am the true god of the demonic race. You have weakened so much. This is too easy¡­

    The Great Demon God yelled as he struggled to stand weakly, "Do you think you can fight my entire army? Number 3. Number 5. Goddess Mel. Where are you now?"

    All of a sudden, the Evil Cultivation Master and the Sagess Alyssa had appeared by his side to support him to stand on the ground. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Number 3, Number 5 and the Goddess Mel had heard the callings of the Great Demon God and they had also appeared on the tform with the rest of the weaker Numbers.

    The Great Demon God cursed coldly, "Where are the cultivators from your Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    All of a sudden, the Evil Cultivation Master had mightily struck the Great Demon God on the back, stunning Number 3, Number 5, the Goddess Mel and the rest of the Numbers that had arrived at the scene.

    The Great Demon God had coughed out blood as he was flung in front of Number 2.

    Number 2 hissed coldly as she gave a sudden stomp on the Great Demon God and there was a loud outburst of her profound power that exploded all around, cracking the immortal bones of the Great Demon God!

    The Great Demon God stared with disbelief at the Evil Cultivation Master for he was struck by the profound power of a 9th cultivation rank immortal.

    And the Evil Cultivation Master began tough jovially as he stared coldly at the Great Demon God, "From now onward, I shall be the new master of the Great Deste Divine Pce and the true god here."

    The Great Demon God gasped weakly as he cursed him coldly, "You can''t! You are just a lowly immortal. Do you think that you can control the Great Deste Divine Pce and the immortal arrays to hold off the celestial immortals?"

    The Evil Cultivation Master smirked, "Do you think that you are the only one with the Evil Veins? I have long experimented with the Evil Vein and I know that I can absorb your cultivation core into mine."

    The Great Demon God waspletely stunned¡­

    He was not defeated by the Saintess Fang Zhenfei today but he was defeated by the Evil Cultivation Master and his crafty schemes¡­

    Today, the dog had decided to bite the owner.

    The Evil Cultivation Master swept his cold gaze at Number 3, Number 5, the Goddess Mel and the rest of the Numbers. "Do you all choose to submit to my Evil Cultivation Pce as my depraved ves or choose to die most horribly?"

    The Sagess Alyssa was now smiling when she saw the terrified look that was on the Goddess Mel; from today onward, she would now be torturing and humiliating this rival of hers to no ends.

    The thousand over dark cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce had also arrived at the scene and they were looking confused; should they obey their former master the Evil Cultivation Master or the Goddess Mel who was their dark supreme leader?

    Naturally they had quickly switch allegiance to the Evil Cultivation Master because most of the elders were secretly loyal to the Evil Cultivation Master and they were groomed by him.

    But primary, almost everyone was terrified of Number 2 because her profound animus was that of an upper 9th rank demonic immortal; she could literally tear everyone that oppose her apart in this ce.

    And she also had the Great Demon God under her foot now.

    The Evil Cultivation Masterughed jovially because no one dare to mutter any word, "From today onward, there is no more Great Demon God Hong Meng. There is only the Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian¡­"

    Author Note:

    1. I''ve wanted to write about the death of Xia Jiajia aka the Saintess Fang Zhenfei for a long time. She is the main heroine of The Romantic Cultivator and she had her own story arc that is dependable on the MC Ji Yuan.

    I have actually written The Fluffy Cultivation and the MC is a heroine. In the Good-For-Nothing Cultivator, Fan Yuqing is the main viiness in both stories and she is the big boss in the Good-For-Nothing Cultivator. Both stories have alot of female readers.

    But for The Romantic Cultivator, I didn''t know if I should go with a male MC or a female MC. I end up with a male MC but focus on the story of a smart heroine in Xia Jiajia that makes everything possible and the male MC Ji Yuan that doesn''t have any cheat or cultivation resources to ovee his hurdles except for his beautiful face.

    2. Thest chapter actually exins the story between Ji Yuan and Xia Jiajia from the beginning.

    3. If you are still reading the story to this point, then you have IQ 1000 for going through all the plot twists and in rl, you must be a really smart person or a really cool person.

    The chapters in The Romantic Cultivator are like my previous stories, are nned in advance. So any questions that you may wanna ask, are actually taken out on purpose to be answered a few chapterster. So if you are reading the advance chapters, then you know what I am talking about.

    4. I actually enjoy writing about Divine Consort Dongfang Xin in thetest story arc of the Spirit Divine Realm and she looked fierce. That is why JY offended Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, many of the readers thought that JY would surely be beaten up for sure but she turns up to be ame Divine Consort and is also a gold digger ugh*. These two parts are actually nned ahead.

    5. There is also a subtle rtionship between Lin Antian that fought with Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the Evil Cultivation Master. Lin Antian if you remember, also has the Evil Veins and he is an experiment of the Evil Cultivation Master.

 Chapter 721 Ji Yuan Got Killed By Xiao Muhan

    ?

    Spirit Divine Realm;

    Snowy Pavilion City, in the hideout of the spiritas rebels.

    Elder Xie Tianzun was casually in one of the rooms of the hideout when a spiritas man had suddenly barged in and he was panting breathlessly.

    He began to frown with irritation because he had just received a bad news yesterday that Red Mane City had just decreed that from now on, there would be no more male gynecologists. That was thest city to be still holding onto the old spiritas tradition and it was a blow to the rebels'' pride.

    To the rebels, it was perfectly alright for them to open the legs of the maidens when they were giving birth because they were the alpha males!

    He had just informed the acting leader of Red Mane City to create more havocs to show that the rebels were unhappy with this decision and he wanted Red Mane City to suffer the wrath of the rebel resistance.

    "What is this? This have better to be some good news or I won''t be too pleased."

    The breathless man panted heavily before he stammered, "It is our new rebel leader¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was startled, "What is it? Is he alright?"

    The breathless man gasped, "We saw him with the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er in the city¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to roar withughter, "Our Great Rebel Leader is taking action for our resistance cause so quickly. This Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er is always alone and she is too cheapskate to bring her followers everywhere. Our Great Rebel Leader Ji Yuan has picked a good target to assassinate this time¡­"

    Then he shouted excitedly, "So what is the oue of their fight? Speak quickly! Who has won? Is our Great Rebel Leader alright? Is he injured? Come tell me quickly! Bring me to him now! I will tend his wounds with my best profound pills¡­"

    The breathless man said weakly, "Not that. We saw him with the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er in the most expensive fashion shop in the city and they were hugging each other''s waists¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked, "This is impossible?! They know each other? This Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er never have a dao cultivation partner as far as we know¡­"

    The breathless man took in a deep breath before saying bitterly, "Not only that, we saw our Great Rebel Leader paying for the expenses of the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. We dare not go too near but we have heard that the expensese to a 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun gasped, "This is too rich, too rich¡­"

    The breathless man said most bitterly, "He has used our resistance''s spirit card to pay for the tag."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was now shocked beyond belief, "He did what?!"

    He had suddenly remembered that the rebel resistance total fund amounted to exactly 1.2 billion high grade spirit stones¡­

    He gasped again, "Don''t tell me that he is being sent by Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er to infiltrate into our rebel resistance? It was just a setup that fateful day when our resistance''s hideout was attacked by Divine Consort Sun Dingjun? Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er are the best of friends¡­"

    The breathless man interrupted Elder Xie Tianzun, "Now our entire resistance can''t trade our contribution points for any spirit stones and everyone is angry¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was suddenly shaken and he was stammering with shock, "I haven''t finish paying the expensive mortgage for my vi in the city yet¡­ this is a most terrible news¡­"

    The breathless man said most bitterly, "This is not the most terrible news. We have also checked that our Great Rebel Leader is staying at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun felt like banging his head, "He is also in cahoots with the Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei?! Then he is also a friend of Divine Consort Tang Manni?!"

    In the past, their rebel resistance was almost driven to extinction in Snowy Pavilion City by the then Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei before she had fallen from grace. To this day, Elder Xie Tianzun still had nightmares about it when he had to flee from hideout to hideout constantly and there were many times that they had to hide in the sewage.

    At one point of time, he had even requested to be sent to the other city states¡­

    Ji Yuan had just stepped foot in the tavern when he had heard Xiao Muhan telling Maiden Flower Ju, "Let me tell you a secret of Ji Yuan. Do you know why he is conferred the title of the Gentleman of the Sword by the fraternity brothers?"

    He was actually thinking of showing off his fantastic profound toga to Xiao Muhan and the others...

    Maiden Flower Ju shook her head gently as she smiled sweetly, "I don''t know. Maybe he is a gentleman?"

    "Wrong!" Xiao Muhanughed aloud. "That is because he is disinterested in any maidens and that why we have conferred upon him this title. Haha¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju was startled, "He is uninterested in any maidens?"

    She was thinking it was no wonder that Master Ji Yuan was not interested in Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan had heard Xiao Muhan telling Maiden Flower Ju about his ck history so he quickly interrupted from behind, "Ahem!"

    Xiao Muhan looked a little flustered as he turned to smile bitterly at Ji Yuan, "s Brother Ji Yuan, you are back now."

    Ji Yuan had rushed forward to pull the robe cor of Xiao Muhan and he was saying angrily, "Bruh!!! Dang!!! You have promised not to tell anyone about this. What a good brother you are!"

    Xiao Muhan protested weakly, "This is just something harmless. Why are you so panicky about this¡­"

    Ji Yuan angrily said, "Fine! Then what if I tell all the maidens here that you are an expert in painting life-like portraits and you are the Saint of Painting here? And that you are always shifting your dirty eyes on their bosoms and below so that you can paint them secretly in your room¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Maiden Flower Ju was gasping and she was covering her bosoms.

    And so did the dozen maidens on the first floor of the tavern as well as they used their hands to cover their bosoms and they were even screaming panicky as they looked at Xiao Muhan¡­

    They were now wondering if this Xiao Muhan was a depraved spiritas man now...

    Xiao Muhan was truly angry now, "Ji Yuan, how dare you! Why did you say that out?!"

    Ji Yuan had calmed down a little after seeing the angry look that was on Xiao Muhan and he was weakly saying, "Sorry my friend. Guess I was erm¡­ a little upset and didn''t mean to spill your secrets¡­"

    Xiao Muhan began to shake his fist furiously and he had actually punched Ji Yuan¡­

    When Ji Yuan got punched by Xiao Muhan, he did not really feel any pain; it was because he is a cultivator and as long as he has any profound strength, his innate profound defense will automatically kick in to protect him from harm like an invisible force shield.

    But at his moment Ji Yuan was in a daze and he felt like his heart was in great pain; it was as though something in him had suddenly died and he was feeling unbearable pain.

    In fact, without knowing it, there was a shed of hot tears in his golden eyes as well¡­

    For unknown reason, he was suddenly recalling thest moments that were between the Great Beyond Goddess and the True Devil God¡­

    And in that scene, the Great Beyond Goddess was weeping and her tears were like the dazzling stars that were around her¡­

    In that scene, he could not move because he was now seeing through the eyes of the True Devil God¡­

    But he was able to feel the unspeakable pains of the Great Beyond Goddess in this scene¡­

    Because he was also feeling the same unspeakable pains now¡­

    He had wanted her to live so he had to die...

    But instead, he had sensed her unspeakable grief just before he had died...

    Something in Ji Yuan had suddenly died¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stumbled onto the ground in a loud bang and he appeared to be knocked out cold; this quickly stunned Xiao Muhan and Flower Maiden Ju at the same time.

    Maiden Flower Ju was shocked as she looked at Xiao Muhan, "You have killed Master Ji Yuan?!"

    Xiao Muhan quickly inspected Ji Yuan and he was panicky saying, "No way! He is only yacting. We have been fighting like this for such a long time and this has never happened before¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju was also inspecting Ji Yuan and was shocked that there were no vital signs in Ji Yuan all of a sudden. She panicky shouted to the other maidens in the tavern, "Quick! Bring him to our mistress! Maybe she can help him¡­"

    Xiao Muhan said panicky as he reached out to carry Ji Yuan, "Let me carry him..."

    But Maiden Flower Ju had pushed him away and she was upset, "Go away! You are a murderous male!"

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    Xiao Muhan: ...

    1. In this chapter, poor Xiao Muhan got med with murdering Ji Yuan:X

 Chapter 722 Why Is Xu Yifei Kissing Ji Yuan?

    Maiden Flower Ju and the other maidens had quickly brought Ji Yuan to see Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei who was also appearing shocked.

    Naturally Xiao Muhan was not around as he was forbidden to follow them.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei gasped with shock as she touched Ji Yuan''s chest, "What has just happened?"

    Maiden Flower Ju panicky said, "Master Ji Yuan, he is punched to the death by that Xiao Muhan¡­"

    Many of the maidens were also nodding as they said together, "Xiao Muhan has killed Master Ji Yuan. We have seen it with our very own eyes."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei: ¡­

    She said quietly, "Master Ji Yuan is not dead yet. He has just entered into a state of animated death¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju and the rest of the maidens were startled, "Master Ji Yuan is still alive?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded slowly, "Leave us alone. I see what I can do."

    Maiden Flower Ju and the rest of the maidens respectfully acknowledged her order and as they turned to leave, they began to mutter to one another.

    "Let''s lock up this lecherous Xiao Muhan first. If anything happens to Master Ji Yuan, he shall pay with it with his life."

    "To think that we have living under the same roof as this depraved Xiao Muhan who is always peeping at us¡­"

    "He is nothingpared to Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Master Ji Yuan not only help our mistress and he has also helped us to have a footing in Snowy Pavilion City¡­"

    "It is such a pity that Master Ji Yuan has a beautiful face but he has to be a gay¡­"

    "Is he in a rtionship with that Xiao Muhan? They look quite close actually¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was flushing all of a sudden when she had heard that her followers have called Ji Yuan a gay.

    When they were out of her personal room, she could not heave a soft sigh. "They wouldn''t dare to spread rumors in front of me. Then, he must really be a gay. It is no wonder that he is uninterested in any maidens. So he in fact, doesn''t have any cultivation partners elsewhere. It is no wonder that he has rejected me¡­ and my sister as well¡­"

    She continued to sigh softly as she reached her spirit divine sense into the soul sea of his slumber body.

    When she was inside his soul sea, she started to look at the vast expanse of inner spiritual sea that was all around as she quietly asked. "Fairy Anyang. Fairy Xiang Li. Master Ji Yuan. Are you there?"

    Nothing.

    Ji Yuan and his two spirit fairies were all not responding.

    She was beginning to be panicky.

    But she was sure that Master Ji Yuan was not dead because she could still sense the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that was deep in the depths of his inner spiritual sea.

    She tried to extend her spirit divine sense deep into his inner spiritual sea to find out what was wrong.

    This time she was much stronger than previously and even her spirit divine sense was way much stronger now; it was because she had regained her cultivation strength as a Divine Consort now.

    And very soon, she would also regain her cultivation strength as a Great Divine Consort.

    But all of a sudden, she was startled.

    It was because she had suddenly discovered a profound darkness that was hidden in his inner spiritual sea¡­

    She was trembling now, not because she was naked but because this profound darkness hade from the True Devil God!

    She had previously found some of the traces of this profound darkness in some of the most ancient relics that were disced in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    But this profound darkness was extremely strong and it had also hidden itself very well.

    If she was not Xu Yifei, even her own kind would not be able to sense this profound darkness.

    She wanted to enter into Master Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas to check further but shecked the spiritual strength to do so as she did not have the permission of Master Ji Yuan to enter his soul sea in the first ce.

    The very reason why she could even enter his soul sea in the first ce was due to her formidable spiritual strength as Divine Consort Xu Yifei now; she was now far stronger than previously.

    But how matter how powerful she was in this aspect, she still could not enter deep into Master Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea and without his permission, she had plenty of spiritual restrictions in ce and could easily suffer a bacsh.

    All of a sudden she was startled; it was because this profound darkness seemed to be able to sense her spiritual presence and it felt offended.

    And in that moment, she saw that this profound darkness seemed to be shaped like a dark sword.

    Once again she was startled; it was because this was a true divinity sword and was also aplete profound treasure unlike the broken profound relics that she had previously seen.

    How should there be a profound darkness sword in a celestial body?

    Surely the celestials have no idea who the True Devil God even is, for the Spiritas is the closest race to that ancient era.

    She did not want to admit this but the Spiritas Spirit Race was once the ancient minions of the True Devil God and they had once fought against the Immortal Gods of the Great Beyond.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    That was why the Spiritas men worshipped the True Devil God as their True God and there were many profound darkness relics that were still scattered throughout the Spirit Divine Realm.

    And there were supposedly even more of these profound darkness relics in the Greater Spirit Divine Realm, which was their immortal realm.

    When she had thought of that fateful day when she had lost her cultivation due to her failed ascension, there was still a shiver in her heart.

    She was once a Great Divine Consort, the strongest Divine Consort in Snowy Pavilion City and her reputation resonated throughout the Spirit Divine Realm.

    That day, when her champion had won in the Spiritas Pavilion Tower that was held every 500 years and she was supposed to receive the spiritual power from the Great Spiritas that were from the Great Spirit Divine Realm toplete her ascension, she had suddenly hesitated¡­

    It was because she had the most extraordinary spirit divine sense and she had suddenly sensed the presence of profound darkness in this ''spiritual gift'' from above.

    Because she had hesitated in the middle of her ascension, she had suffered a cultivation bacsh to her cultivation core.

    And from that day onward, there was no more Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and there was only the lowly Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    Today, she had discovered that there was profound darkness that was hidden in Master Ji Yuan''s body and this had caused her to tremble.

    But all of a sudden, her fear had dissipated because she could suddenly sense that this profound darkness was in fact benevolent and was simply trying to push her out of Master Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    With a soft sigh, she retreated her naked spiritual body out of Master Ji Yuan''s soul sea and her spirit divine sense was back to the outside now.

    It seemed that there was nothing she could do but wait¡­

    This was all too strange even for her.

    As she looked at the beautiful face of Ji Yuan that was motionless, there was a weird stirring in her heart.

    Her small rosy lips began to tremble¡­

    She could not help bending forward to kiss slightly on his beautiful face¡­

    Maybe she was sad for him for his current predicament and she was helpless to help him¡­

    Or maybe she just wanted tofort him¡­

    Or even maybe she was sad that he was a gay¡­

    Or maybe she could not help him to get rid of the profound darkness in his soul sea and she could only watch as he be more degenerated and depraved over time¡­

    Or maybe she¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly opened his golden eyes and he was shocked to see that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was kissing him¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was also shocked when Ji Yuan had suddenly opened his golden eyes and she began to stumble forward even more and soon, she was pressing her lips against his lips in a kiss.

    Both of them were suddenly startled and awkward¡­

    A flustered Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly moved away from Ji Yuan and panicky said, "This is not what you think it is¡­"

    A bewildered Ji Yuan was staring at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and he was questioning himself why he was now in Concubine Fairy Xu Yifei''s person room?

    He was trying to recollect what had happened...

    He remembered that Xiao Muhan had punched him and he could not remember the rest...

    Dang! When did Xiao Muhan be such a good puncher?! This is impossible!

    Even Fairy Anyang and Fairy Xiang Li who were suddenly awakened were shocked by what they were seeing.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, what has just happened? And why are the two of you kissing? Howe I don''t remember anything?

    Ji Yuan quickly inspected his toga to check if his clothing was intact¡­

    Fairy Anyang said: Erm, maybe the rebels are right after all. The maidens here are really decadent. My lord, luckily nothing has happened to you. I''ve just checked. Your yang essence is still intact¡­

    Xiang Li looked a little disappointed and asked: So there is no show?!

    When the flustered Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei saw that Ji Yuan was checking his clothing, she was even more flustered; it was because she was thinking that he might have thought that she had secretly drugged him and even vited him.

    Because she knows now that Ji Yuan is gay, this matter is extremely taboo to him¡­

    She felt like digging a hole to hide her awkwardness now¡­

    She had never thought that the noble Xu Yifei would be in this awkward situation today that she could not exin herself...

    1. This time, it isnt JY turn to say. "This isn''t what you think it is. Please believe me."

 Chapter 723 I Hope That You Believe My Story

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now looking curiously at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei; it was because he had suddenly recalled he had awakened just in time to see her kissing him gently on his face and then when he had suddenly opened his eyes, she had slipped and their lips had suddenly touched¡­

    The reason why he had suddenly regained his senses was because he had suddenly thought that he had sniff the heavenly fragrance that was from Jiajia.

    He had suddenly gasped aloud when he had opened his golden eyes because he could also remember that sudden painful grief that had ovee him when the True Devil God had died; but this pain did note from the True Devil God but hade from the Great Beyond Goddess instead.

    But this heavenly fragrance did note from Jiajia but hade from Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei instead.

    Only Jiajia and Feng Minyue have this kind of heavenly fragrance.

    Ji Yuan'' has a hidden talent and it is his sharp nose that can sniff anyone distinctly.

    But at this moment both Concubine Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan was blinking at each other awkwardly.

    And Concubine Xu Yifei was now saying awkwardly to him, "This is not what you think it is¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang almost asked at the same time, "What happens?"

    While Ji Yuan was asking Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, Xiang Li and Anyang were actually asking inside his inner spiritual sea and they were asking Ji Yuan instead of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei since they could only be heard by Ji Yuan unless they had chosen to materialize outside instead.

    However, Xiang Li and Anyang would rarely materialize outside unless Ji Yuan called for them to appear.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was blushing awkwardly and she was using her left hand to cover her revealing bosoms while trying to find an excuse, "This is really not what you think it is. You have been knocked down by Xiao Muhan and they have brought you here for me to treat you."

    Ji Yuan was frowning immediately when he had recalled Xiao Muhan''s harmless punch, "When did his punch be so powerfultely. He must have used some form of a trick on me. Grrrrr¡­ darn you, Xiao Muhan¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was once again looking at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and also secretly behind her revealing outfit, "Erm, and the cure is¡­"

    He wanted to say if the cure was the kiss but he was also feeling quite awkward to ask; what if he got it wrong instead?

    Maybe she had found an ugly ulcer growing on his beautiful face and she was just helping him to suck it off instead?

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly exined with a most awkward smile, "I''ve checked your soul sea when you are unconsciousness earlier and I found a mysterious profound darkness hidden in your inner spiritual sea that is shaped like a dark sword¡­"

    She hesitated for a while before adding with a bitter smile, "I am actually using my spiritual force to help you to stabilize the profound darkness inside your soul sea."

    This was an awkward lie and she did not know if Master Ji Yuan would actually believe her or not.

    Ji Yuan was growling all of a sudden, "Dang!"

    This scared Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and she thought that Ji Yuan was upset with her for lying to him¡­

    Ji Yuan continued to say loudly, "Oh crap! That ursed sword is real¡­"

    He had suddenly recalled how he was attacked by a dark sword way back in the Goddess Star Pce (See Chapter 651) and that attack had caused him unbearable pain in his heart.

    This unbearable pain was the same unbearable grief that he had just experienced too.

    He could clearly see that demonic sword sinking into his inner spiritual seas but a check told him that it was not there. So, he had thought that he was actually attacked by a hidden profound array in the Goddess Star Pce instead and that he was just experiencing a hallucination instead.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked curiously, "You know about that sword?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She was wondering if he was an Evil Devil Cultivator instead and he had purposely concealed his profound darkness within his soul sea¡­

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Please believe me. I''ve got nothing to do with this profound darkness thing. I must be cursed by it in myst trial¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked curiously, "Last trial?"

    Ji Yuan exined awkwardly, "Since you already know that I am a celestial cultivator, I have nothing to hide from you. As you know, I am on a trial here too. As for this profound darkness thing, I think it is because I got cursed by a demonic sword in myst trial."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked him curiously, "How did you got cursed by it? Maybe I can help?"

    Ji Yuan began to stare nkly at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and he was feeling awkward; it was because he did not want to tell her that he had taken the initiative to attack the imagery above the dome simply because he did not like the masked face of the True Devil God.

    And then he got cursed by this demonic sword¡­

    But of course, he did not want to tell her this because this would be awkward to his face and reputation.

    He hesitated for a while before he weakly said, "I got into a ''BIG'' fight with some cultivators during myst trial. They were bullying the weak and I cannot bear to watch their arrogance. I know that I have to intervene and one of them cursed me and hurled a demonic sword into my heart¡­"

    He stopped briefly to emphasize, "That attack had almost killed me but luckily, through my strong willpower, I have actually survived."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei asked curiously, "They didn''t ensure that you are dead or to take back this demonic sword?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He didn''t think too much about his story because he was making it along as he speaks. And also because Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was making his heart paced very quickly the longer he looked at her; he could clearly see her pink tits and even the curve between her legs even with her flimsy robe on...

    Time to press the time reverse button.

    "I''ve missed something," Ji Yuan said most awkwardly. "I got them all and had butchered them with my mighty sword. Then one of the evil cultivators in his dying breath had hurled the demonic sword at me. I was caught unwary and had almost died."

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded slowly, "They must not be any weak cultivators in order to possess the profound darkness sword. It must be a most terrible life and death fight."

    Ji Yuan nodded when he saw that she did not ask any questions about his story.

    Good save¡­

    He quickly added with a long sigh, "That''s right. The entire mountain was shaking with the deadly profound might of our deadly battle. It is a miracle that I am still alive¡­"

    Fairy Anyang snorted inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: I can''t believe our lord can lie in this manner without ckening his inner spiritual sea¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother should say that these cultivators are actually bullying poor Xiang Li and that is why he is defending me. That is why he got cursed.

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei nodded and said firmly to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry Master Ji Yuan. You are my benefactor. I will surely find a way to help you to purge this curse of yours out. You are a good man and I don''t want you to die."

    She was actually thinking; as long as he did not ask me about why I was kissing him then everything is going to be fine¡­ it is such a pity that he only likes men and not the maidens... I must quickly tell my Sister Tang Manni about this lest she will be disappointed in the future...

    And the two of them began tough awkwardly together from making up their stories.

 Chapter 724 Good Luck With Divine Consort Dongfang Xin

    ?

    After Ji Yuan had regained his consciousness, he quickly exined to Maiden Flower Ju and to the other maidens to release Xiao Muhan.

    He had exined that this was really not the fault of Xiao Muhan but he could not tell them it was because of the demonic sword that was in his soul sea.

    It was because Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had warned him just before he had left her personal room that it was best that the others did not know about the profound darkness that was in him as it was something taboo to the spiritas maidens.

    Although Flower Maiden Ju and the other maidens had released Xiao Muhan, they were beginning to stay clear of him.

    "I know that this Xiao Muhan is a pervert¡­"

    "I think that Master Ji Yuan is only trying to defend him because he treated him as a brother¡­"

    "I notice that this Xiao Muhan is always trying to badmouth Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    "It is most unfortunately that Master Ji Yuan is uninterested in any maidens¡­"

    "I didn''t want to tell anyone of you because I am scared previously. I have a profound treasure that can sense the yang essence and I''ve found out that Xiao Muhan''s room is always heavily filled with his yang essence. As for Master Ji Yuan, it is always clean¡­"

    "So this Xiao Muhan is always secretly looking at us and painting perverted portraits of us¡­"

    "Why did Master Ji Yuan have such a terrible brother?"

    "This Xiao Muhan may be a rebel because he is such a decadent man¡­"

    The maidens were all ignoring or avoiding Xiao Muhan now. And whenever Xiao Muhan was near them or within their sights, they could raise their hands to cover their modesty.

    But for Ji Yuan, they would disy their open affections for him because he was their mistress'' benefactor and because he was uninterested in any maidens.

    Therefore, Ji Yuan always had a good and sinful view of their translucent and barely covered bodies¡­

    When Ji Yuan was alone with Xiao Muhan, he tried to exin to him. "Brother Xiao Muhan, that is a honest mistake. Please forgive me?"

    Xiao Muhan angrily said to him, "Look at what you have done! Brother, my foot! Now I can''t even get close to them!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Let''s move on, alright?"

    Xiao Muhan angrily said, "Move on? You''re not the one that is having this unbearable lust in your soul sea. I need to release!"

    Ji Yuan suggestedmely, "You can always go to the brothel, if you have the spirit stones to spare. I heard that it is 100 000 high grade spirit stones each time. But you probably need several times to feel satisfied for a day."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan! Do you have to add thatst line?!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I''m sorry. I can''t help that. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Xiao Muhan was staring at Ji Yuan, "You know what. I don''t have the spirit stones to spare. But you do."

    Ji Yuan began tough jovially, "Indeed I have. And I can loan it to you."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Loan?!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I can give it to you topensate you for the hurt that I''ve caused you."

    Xiao Muhan began to smoothen a little as he raised his five fingers, "Then this is mypensation."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "500 000 high grade spirit stones? Isn''t this too much?"

    Xiao Muhan stared coldly at him, "You really think 500 000 high grade spirit stones are enough?!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "5 million then."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan frowned angrily, "I ask for 50 million and you are only willing to give me 5 million?!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "50 million is a lot¡­"

    But when he saw Xiao Muhan''s angry look, he quicklyughed it off by saying. "50 million. So be it. Hahaha¡­ you can bang as many times as you want with these spiritas maidens here¡­"

    Xiao Muhan had a look of satisfaction on him, "This is much better. Darn it! If I know that gold is so precious in this ce, I would have changed all my wealth into gold coins¡­"

    Ji Yuan was also sighing, "Me too as well¡­ this ce is a men''s paradise¡­"

    Then all of a sudden, he had thought of something as he grinned. "Brother Xiao Muhan, you know what. I just happen to know where the best brothels around here are located."

    Xiao Muhan began to frown, "How the heck? You just go out for a while and you have checked the ce already?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Not really. I have actually heard it by ident when I was on my way back. And I think that since you are going to a brothel anyway, you should pay a visit there."

    Xiao Muhan grinned, "Hehe. Where is it then?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes to check if there were anyone around before he whispered, "I heard that there is a famous brothel that is under Divine Consort Dongfang Xin that you can find the best maidens to serve you."

    Xiao Muhan was smiling broadly, "Haha. I can certainly go there. Maybe I can even get a chance to meet and bang Divine Consort Dongfang Xin at the same time too."

    Ji Yuan patted heartily on Xiao Muhan''s back, "I wish you good luck, my good brother! And also good luck with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin as well."

    Xiao Muhan suddenly frowned at him, "You are not pursuing Divine Consort Dongfang Xin? This is too fishy all of a sudden."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am not as handsome as you and didn''t I promise you the chance to have a go at the Divine Consorts? I am now trying to pursue Maiden Han Muyuan. I think I do like her after all, Hahaha¡­"

    He was naturally not going to tell Xiao Muhan that Maiden Han Muyuan was actually the Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Therefore he had decided to give his Brother Xiao Muhan a chance to score his Trust Points with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin instead.

    Xiao Muhan had a satisfied look as he snorted, "Of course you are not as handsome as me¡­."

    He was already thinking how he should spend his 50 million high grade spirit stones¡­

    "Nice toga you have there." Xiao Muhan had suddenly noticed Ji Yuan''s new toga.

    Ji Yuan quicklyughed it off, "This toga is a cheap one. You can buy it at the roadside vendor. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhanughed too, "Then I don''t want your toga anymore. Haha¡­"

    Then he pointed at Ji Yuan, "You go for your Maiden Han Muhan and I''ll go for my Divine Consort Dongfang Xin. Haha¡­"

    Then he started to stroke his beautiful beard, "I wonder if this Divine Consort Dongfang Xin is a tough nut to crack?"

    Ji Yuan patted him with a grin, "Don''t worry, brother. Under your charm, any tough nut will also be a piece of tofu for you to grind."

    Xiao Muhan was truly delighted by Ji Yuan''s ttering, "After this Divine Consort Dongfang Xin has be my bitch, I shall tell you the good news."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Be sure to tell me about it. I will be eager to know how you have banged her. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhanughed aloud, "Don''t worry I will. Don''t forget that I have a harem back in our celestial fraternity and I am famous as adies'' killer."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as well, "Just don''t get killed by her. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "What did you just say?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am only joking. Can''t you tell? Haha..."

    Xiao Muhan began tough jovially as well, "Hahahaha... piece of cake... tofu I mean..."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "Tofu Maiden Dongfang Xin..."

 Chapter 725 Fleeing The Eons Firmament Mountains

    ?

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity;

    Hundreds of profound ships were slowly levitating in the thick misty canopy that was high above the mountains of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    These profound ships had just departed from the Eons Firmament Mountains.

    And on 1 of the main profound ships, there were woeful wails.

    It was because this main profound ship had belonged to Saintess Fang Zhenfei and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was now in charge.

    With her were some of the maidens that have loved Ji Yuan; Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Ling Tianshui, Saintess Yuluo, Shui Qingqing, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    They were here with their followers and some of them were also the mainmanders of their own main profound ships.

    As for Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi, they were aboard the main profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and were not here.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were the most grieved; it was because Jiajia was their mistress and when their mistress had died, the pendants on their necks had suddenly broken into pieces.

    Hua Wuwu cried out, "Why didn''t mistress not tell us where she is going?! We would have followed her!"

    "That''s right! I don''t want to live anymore. It is so unfair. She only tells Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue but not us. We are her core prot¨¦g¨¦s and closest friends¡­" Hua Baiyue wailed aloud and her hot tears flowed down her cheeks.

    Their woeful wailing sounds made the other maidens even more mncholy and sorrowful; it was because they did not know what to do now without Saintess Fang Zhenfei to lead them.

    Imagine their startled shock when Xue Qianxue had summoned everyone to tell them to flee from the Eons Firmament Mountains until the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has ended.

    She had told them that this was the final instruction of Saintess Fang Zhenfei to all of them and that she would be challenging the Great Demon God alone to buy everyone the time to fight back when most of the celestials are back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Great Saint Fu Wushuang, First Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was also in great grief as he said bitterly to Hua Baiyue. "Elder Wei Yidao are her guardians and yet we are unable to protect her¡­ we totally don''t deserve to be our saintess'' protectors¡­"

    "We have watched her grow up when she is but a child¡­" Great Saint Wei Yidao the Second Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce was also in tears and this showed on his wrinkled old face.

    These two old men did not mind wailing in front of so many others because they had watched her grow up ever since she was but a baby and they were her protectors in the Celestial Realm; they had strict instructions from the Great Goddess Celestial Alice not to reveal her daughter true identity to anyone but to act as her protectors.

    Hua Wuwu suddenly cried aloud, "We should avenge our mistress! Even If I die fighting, I shall storm the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea¡­"

    "No!" Xue Qianxue had suddenly interrupted Hua Wuwu and she was exasperated, "That is why your mistress did not want to tell you where she is going and have put me inmand of her profound ship. You are really too rush¡­"

    Then she raised her adorable profound voice, "Saintess Hua Wuwu, you are now the Saintess Leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and Saintess Hua Baiyue, you are the Divine Pce Mistress of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce. These are thest instructions from your mistress to the two of you. Do you want to disobey her and destroy these two celestial sects that are under your stewardship?"

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were suddenly quiet but it still could not contain their sobbing tears and griefs!

    Shangguan Yan sighed to say tearfully, "I am sure that Jiajia don''t wish to see us in this manner. Even though I may not be strong, but don''t forget that I am also a new core prot¨¦g¨¦ of Jiajia and I will surely avenge for her. If Jiajia says we will have to wait until the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, then so shall it be!"

    Xia Jiajia had taken Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi as her core prot¨¦g¨¦s some time ago and had even helped Shangguan Yan to be a golden celestial of the fifth cultivation realm while Fairy Ye Chengxi is now a 6th cultivation realm golden supremacy. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "We are supposed to be all the smart maidens here. If we can''t win by force, surely we can use our heads."

    Saintess Yuluo nodded as she stepped forward to say, "We can''t allow Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s death to be in vain. We need to regroup our numbers. Right now, we don''t even know how many traitors do we have among all the celestial sects. That is why we can only hide until we are sure who is our friends or our foes."

    Shui Qingqing was still in tears because she could not believe that Saintess Fang Zhenfei was now dead but she took the courage to say, "Divine Mo Ming says Ji Yuan may be the great hero that we need. We should wait for him¡­"

    Actually, Diviner Mo Ming did not say that this Great Hero Ji Yuan would be able to save the Celestial Realm from the Great Demon God and his prophecy would not work against a higher power like the Great Demon God.

    But everyone had decided to keep quiet since they did not want to hurt Shui Qingqing who was more na?ve than any of the maidens here.

    Ling Tianshui had stepped forward to say, "Listen to me, everyone¡­"

    She was Ling Feiyue''s aunt and she was also a top cultivator from the unorthodox side.

    "Since Saintess Fang Zhenfei has passed the artefact core of her ninth rank blue firebird to Xue Qianxue for safekeeping, we should at the very least wait until Great Saintess Shui Xisi is back. Then we can have a hope. After all, she is the sister to Saintess Fang Zhenfei and she is also the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce, 1 of the 3 most powerful powerhouses of our Deste Celestial Fraternity. She will surely be able to avenge for her Sister Saintess Fang Zhenfei and many others¡­"

    Then she continued to point out, "Let''s don''t forget that we have a silver hair great saintess by the name of Bai Qianfeng with Ji Yuan and she also looks quite formidable. And we also have Little Princess too. The three of them can make a difference to our fighting strength. So, let''s us keep cool first and abide our time."

    Shui Qingqing interrupted between her sobs, "Ji Yuan can also make the difference too. He is really strong."

    When she had mentioned Ji Yuan, all the other maidens and even the grand elders of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce were all looking quite awkwardly at one another; it was because Ji Yuan was a sword cultivator and he specialized in sword energies. His puny sword energies could not even prate through the profound defenses of their immortal enemies, much less the Great Demon God.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu innocently looked at Shui Qingqing, "I believe in my lord consort Ji Yuan too."

    When she had said that, the rest of the group was looking even more awkwardly; it was because only these two maidens have the faith in Ji Yuan.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, they could understand as she was from the lower mortal realm and she did not know the disparity between a Power Cultivator, Defense Cultivator and Spirit Cultivator whenpared to a Sword Cultivator here.

    A Sword Cultivator may be stronger in the lower realm because most of the cultivators had a poor profound defense at the lower cultivation realms. But this disparity be a huge disparity at the higher cultivation realms and sword energies were useless against the high level cultivators, especially when they had gained their golden bodies.

    As for Shui Qingqing, she had led a sheltered cultivation in the Water Melody Pce and her idol was Ji Yuan who had impressed her to no ends.

    Great Saint Fu Wushuang, First Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce quickly said with great awkwardness, "I know of an old freak who is quite powerful with the sword. He is the White Sword Monarch and he is also a Sword Immortal in the other celestial fraternity. Maybe we can ask him to teach Ji Yuan a trick or two to improve his profound sword arts. This old freak also got a saint-step divine sword too¡­"

    Shui Qingqing interrupted excitedly and her golden eyes were beaming, "Maybe he will even give his saint sword to Ji Yuan too!"

    Great Saint Fu Wushuang was startled; it was because he had wanted to say this old freak also got a saint-step divine sword too and he is probably even better than Ji Yuan.

    The others were looking even more awkwardly; it was because no one will give their divine swords away, especially a powerful saint-step divine sword.

    They were all thinking that her Matriarch Shui Xisi was a terrible celestial teacher now and she is totally undependable...

 Chapter 726 The True Great Beyond Goddess

    ?

    In the vast expanses of the Great Beyond Realm;

    Location: Unknown.

    There was a sudden auspicious rainbow omen that had suddenly appeared above a white pce high up in the mountains.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing were truly startled as they flew at top speed toward this white pce.

    "Hohohohoho!" Old Reverend Beiyuan was truly excited. "We are just in time to witness our mistress exiting her seclusion. What extraordinary luck!"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing quickly reminded him, "Don''t goughing with every sentence. I don''t want to be sent back to the Goddess Star Pce with you again. If so, then you can forget about talking to me ever again."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "That was an ident thest time¡­"

    Soon they had bypassed severalyers of defensive arrays and had reached the white pce of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Once again when they were in the white pce, they phased through severalyers of spatial space within the white pce until they had finally found the Great Beyond Goddess in her meditating chamber.

    This meditating chamber was not exactly big but this was the way the Great Beyond Goddess had preferred it.

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing saw the Great Beyond Goddess again, her colorless white hair was now beginning to turn bluish and her misty dark eyes were also slowly turning to white and blue too.

    This was a sign that the Great Beyond Goddess was now back and this was not her avatar.

    But they still could not see her face clearly because she was wearing a veil that was shrouded with bright lights.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan quickly pay his respects, "Hohohohoho, great mistress. You are finally back!"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing almost fainted on the spot and she quickly kicked him to stop him fromughing before saying respectfully. "Great mistress, your disciple Qi Yuexing misses you so much!"

    The Great Beyond Goddess appeared to be in deep thoughts and did not respond to either Old Reverend Beiyuan and Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    But to them, this was all too normal and they were willing to wait for the Great Beyond Goddess to recollect her memories.

    The fingers of the Great Beyond Goddess was trembling; it was because she had remembered that she had just died in a battle against the Great Demon God¡­

    And in that life, she was Xia Jiajia¡­

    In that life, she was able to disy the True Primeval Phoenix Bloodline because she was actually the Great Beyond Goddess and her bloodline was stronger than any immortal bloodline.

    Her heart was trembling now. Not because she had just died but because she had remembered Ji Yuan¡­

    And it was because Ji Yuan was the one that she had always been waiting for¡­

    Many uncountable years ago, she had sealed her emotion soul away so that she would return to the endless samara sea to look for the True Devil God.

    Her heart would never be opened to anyone save for the True Devil God because she had sealed away her true emotions away and reserved it for only the True Devil God.

    When she had met Ji Yuan, her icy heart had begun to open¡­

    It was because he was really the one that she had been searching for all these years¡­

    Xia Jiajia was actually the real her because this host body was devoid of any emotions and even her avatars were not the real her.

    Only when the consciousness of Xia Jiajia had died or if she could reach to a higher state of divinity, would she return as the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The reason why she was trembling now was because she had a missed opportunity with Ji Yuan who still did not know who he really is.

    While she was slowly recollecting her life as Xia Jiajia, she was also recollecting her memories from her other avatars.

    And one of the avatars startled her; it hade from ''Dream Mist'', in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    In Dream Mist''s memories, she had actually traveled with Ji Yuan for a time.

    She was suddenly d that Ji Yuan was still alive inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he seemed to have grown much stronger.

    But she was also amused that Ji Yuan had gone through so many funny antics while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he had also met quite a few maidens too.

    She was also quite startled that the Death God Mingwang that Xia Jiajia had feared was actually such a beautiful maiden by the name of Yun Chi and that she was on the side of Ji Yuan.

    This Yun Chi is with Ji Yuan''s child?

    She is so blissful¡­

    There were also quite a few strong saintesses around Ji Yuan as well¡­

    Feng Minyue, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu...

    And even her Sister Sisi is also with Ji Yuan...

    Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess as well...

    There are also two new maidens, Yang Min and Yu Jingjing...

    They are all together...

    They have all reached the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now ording to the memories of Dream Mist, except for Sisi...

    She was a little worried for her reckless Sister Shui Xisi now...

    Also Ji Yuan has a new fairy spirit? And her name is Fairy Xiahou Anyang...

    His soul sea is now so pure that he can host 2 fairy spirits as well as 2 sword spirits?

    2 sword spirits...

    He has really be so strong now and even his divine sword has now been upgraded...

    And he even have 2 saint-step divine swords too...

    Ji Yuan had also found his old master in the final trial too...

    His old master is actually the White Sword Monarch, which Xia Jiajia had once met before...

    When she saw that Ji Yuan had invented a new grand cross profound sword art to be used with his 2 saint swords and topensate for his weakness in melee, she was startled at how powerful Ji Yuan was now.

    Not to mention that Ji Yuan also had a powerful demonic angel spirit animus too...

    He had truly be very strong and much stronger than she could imagine in such a short time...

    And that she also now knows why the Dragon God Longdi was suddenly injured and had suffered a bacsh in his cultivation core; it was due to Dream Mist, her avatar when she had broken his divine sword.

    The same goes for the Great Demon God as well.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And many more¡­

    She was quite startled that even her Avatar Dream Mist has developed a feeling for Ji Yuan...

    The Great Beyond Goddess saw all the funny things that Ji Yuan was doing and she could not believe what she was seeing; like eating several masculine profound pills at the same time...

    For the very first time through Dream Mist, she could see and hear all the funny conversations between Xiang Li and Ji Yuan...

    She was totally bewildered by their weird conversations...

    She began to frown when she saw that it was actually Xiang Li who was pushing Ji Yuan as his heart demon to form a harem. This was really ridiculous and even she was quite speechless about their close friendship...

    But Xiang Li had also helped Ji Yuan unwittingly by being his heart demon as she absorbed all his bad deeds, preserving his soul sea from being tainted.

    If it was not for Xiang Li, Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea would once again be very impure...

    But her deepest regret now was that she could no longer apany Ji Yuan in his journey and that she had ''died''¡­

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan saw that the colors in the Great Beyond Goddess had been restored, he chuckled jovially. "Mistress, wee back! Hohohoho¡­ you must have a fruitful trip this time round?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing wanted to faint on the spot; how many times had she reminded Old Reverend Beiyuan not tough in the presence of the Great Beyond Goddess?

    The Great Beyond Goddess looked curiously at Old Reverend Beiyuan and she could imagine Ji Yuanughing nonstop when they were together¡­

    Finally, she said gently, "Beiyuan, you have managed to ovee the trials at the Goddess Star Pce? This is most impressive."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho, this is too easy¡­"

    Should he tell the Great Beyond Goddess that he had also epted a disciple along the way? And that he had also found the Goddess Tear that was with him?

    But if he told his mistress about his new disciple, she may feel offended for not telling her and she may banish him to the Goddess Star Pce again, or to even worse ces.

    So, he had decided to shut up.

    The Great Beyond Goddess turned to Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing to say, "Yuexing, you have a high attainment in your cultivation as well. Judging from the cultivation differences between you and Beiyuan, in the future you will surely reach the 11th True Divinity ahead of him."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was suddenly ashamed and did not know what to say¡­

    It was because a celestial by the name of Ji Yuan had aided them to escape from the Goddess Star Pce¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly said as she looked at the two of them, "I hope that the two of you have an enlightenment inside the Goddess Star Pce."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "Hohoho, of course. Of course¡­"

    Then the Great Beyond Goddess asked gently, "So when will the two of you be tying the knot together?"

    When she had said that, Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing were startled and they were stammering for words¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess said gently to them, "Don''t you know that it takes a true couple to understand the trials of the Goddess Star Pce in order to ovee the trials there. Since you have now understood how I feel now, you are not tying the knot?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan turned to look weakly at Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Erm, of course. This enlightenment is exactly what great mistress has said¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing: ¡­

    The two of them were actually thinking; the enlightenment of the Goddess Star Pce is teaching them that war is bad? And they should make peace instead? But why does it takes a true couple to ovee this trial?

    They were suddenly looking a little confused...

    Old Reverend Beiyuan looked really guilty and he quickly said, "Great mistress, actually¡­"

    But the Great Beyond Goddess waved her hand to say gently, "Go and prepare yourself first for your nuptial knots. I will give you the two of you a fitting profound treasure. For now, I am going to meditate again."

    She was going to meditate again because she was thinking of Ji Yuan now and trying to reminisce their memories together¡­

    She remembered that she had promised Ji Yuan to tie the nuptial knot with him after he had exited the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth (See Chapter 203) but sadly, this was no longer possible now¡­

    He had said with a chuckle, "Jiajia. If I cane back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, will you be my consort?"

    He was hinting to her; Surely you are not so heartless as to reject my request? I will be very demoralized and this will affect my performances in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    And she had agreed, causing much jovial joy to Ji Yuan...

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan had heard that the Great Beyond Goddess was going to be in meditation again, he was greatly startled, "But great mistress, you have juste out of seclusion¡­"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing quickly kicked Old Reverend Beiyuan before pulling him away; she was really afraid that he may say the wrong words.

    As they exited the meditation room of the Great Beyond Goddess, Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing quickly sent a secret divine whisper to Old Reverend Beiyuan, "You idiot! You should be honest with our great mistress from the very start. If you admit it now, we are all doomed!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nervously whispered back to her, "Then what shall we do now?"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing whispered nonchntly to him, "Prepare for our nuptial knots. You big idiot."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan looked shock as he gasped, "I have to marry you?!"

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing nodded, "Do we have a choice now? It is all due to your dishonest blunder. Let''sy down the rules first. From now onward, you have to listen to me¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    When the Great Beyond Goddess was alone, she was trembling with the many emotions that she had experienced just before she had died.

    She muttered with trembling lips, "If only you can see the imageries that I have created for us in the Goddess Star Pce... all my emotions and affections that I''ve for you are there... when you died for me, I was and still am heartbroken..."

    Her eyes were brimming with her hot tears as she wept, but this time it was not her sorrowful tears but she was weeping with happiness; she had finally found the True Devil God after such a long time...

    1. Xia Jiajia is actually the Great Beyond Goddess herself. I guess that many of you have already guessed it from the clues that are given.

    2. Does it sounds famr when the Great Beyond Goddess/ Jiajia has ordered them to tie the knot immediately? Like in the case of Shangguan Yan and Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 727 The Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian

    ?

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, at the Great Forsaken Basin where the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea is located.

    Inside the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The changes that happened in the Great Deste Divine Pce was shocking to its former denizens. It was because the Evil Cultivation Master had now be the Evil Cultivation God and he now ruled the Great Deste Divine Pce as its new master.

    The Evil Cultivation God had chained the soulless body of the Great Demon God in the center of the Great Deste Great Pce after absorbing all his cultivation attainment with his Evil Veins Bloodline and this had caused his cultivation realm to peak to the upper 9th cultivation realm.

    If the Great Demon God was not injured in his cultivation core, the Evil Cultivation God may even reach the peak of the 9th immortal cultivation realm.

    He had even discovered a hidden n of the Great Demon God; this n involved gifting Little Princess to the Deste Dragon God Longdi so that she may absorb his cultivation attainment via her Evil Veins. And then the Great Demon God would then absorb the cultivation attainment of the Little Princess to be a True Divinity.

    This actually did not mean that the cultivation attainment of the Deste Dragon God Longdi would actually drop since he would also be absorbing the pure yin essence of Little Princess'' purity as well and he could even be a True Divinity.

    It just means that the Great Demon God had treated Little Princess as his chess piece to be a True Divinity at the same time. For that, he had to sacrifice this ''daughter'' of his.

    He was sure that the Deste Dragon God also did not mind losing a cultivation partner so quickly since he already got his sight on the Saintess Fang Zhenfei already.

    It was no wonder why the Great Demon God was so mad at him for losing Little Princess because of this terrible secret.

    But now that the Evil Cultivation God was aware of this dark secret, he had naturally nned to absorb Little Princess'' cultivation attainment for his own. Then he would have no problem reaching the peak of the Ninth Immortal Positioning or even as a 10th True Divinity God.

    The Evil Cultivation God wanted absolute power!

    There were 7th celestial cultivation realms from the 1st to 7th before a celestial is able to ascend to the Immortal Realm as an immortal.

    The cultivation realm between 8th to 9th are called the immortal cultivation realms and are furthered divided into 6 immortal positions; the Lesser Heavenly Position, the Middle Heavenly Position, the Greater Heaven Position, the Minor Divine Position, the Piddle Divine Position and the Major Divine Position.

    Although it may look like there are only two main immortal cultivation realms but every single position was extremely hard and it was extremely difficult to advance. Most celestials when they ascended to the immortal realm of the Ninth Heavens will be struck in the 8th cultivation realm of the Lesser Heavenly Position and the Middle Heaven position.

    Even when the Evil Cultivation Master had attained to the minor divine position of the 9th Initial Immortal Realm, the Great Demon God had called him a lowly immortal and rightly so.

    It was because there is a vast gap in the 9th immortal cultivation realms from the Minor Divine Position, the Middle Divine Position to the Major Divine Position.

    A peaked 9th immortal like the Great Demon God is naturally also at the peak of the Major Divine Position.

    Because it is so hard to advance, the celestial immortals also have a strict immortal hierarchy.

    The male celestials are divided into Immortal, Sage, Lord and Great God.

    The female celestials are divided into Fairy, Sagess, Goddess and Great Goddess.

    In the Immortal, the Evil Cultivation Master will be known as a mere lowly Lord and he had to submit to the other power Immortal Lords and Great Gods.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But no longer now!

    He is now a Great God!

    Upper 9th Immortal Cultivation Realm Great God!

    However, he is still struck at the Minor Divine Position because the immortal positioning will require him to gain through his own cultivation enlightenment and unlike cultivation attainment, cannot be absorbed through his Evil Vein.

    Just like the Sagess Mel who had advanced as Goddess Mel, it could not change the fact that she is a Greater Heaven Position Sagess and not a true Minor Divine Position or a Middle Divine Position Goddess.

    If she had met a true goddess, then she would surely be defeated.

    That was the reason why the Great Demon God had asked the Goddess Mel to delegate her position of his dark army if the Abyssal Null Goddess was willing to submit to him.

    It was because she was a superior goddess and also a mighty Citadel Lord of the Ancient Fortress. Although she was still struck in the goddess cultivation realm but her bloodline was strong and she was already at the beginning of the Major Divine Position and she have the potential to be a true goddess.

    The Great Demon God had wanted as many immortals in the Major Divine Position as possible in his ranks because they were extremely powerful even at a lower cultivation realm and he was building his own powerful kingdom.

    That was also why the Great Demon God called the him a lowly immortal!

    The Evil Cultivation God was still mad at this remark as heughed aloud at the soulless body of the Great Demon God, "You dare to call me a lowly immortal? You are now worse than a dog in front of me. And I am even using your body to power your very own immortal arrays!"

    Unlike the Great Demon God, the Evil Cultivation God was unable to create his own powerful immortal arrays and he had to depend on the ones that the Great Demon God had created.

    But this was fine to him because he had only wanted absolute power!

    Now this was only possible because the Deste Dragon God Longdi was killed all of a sudden by Saintess Fang Zhenfei, Number 1 was not around and Number 2 had joined his side.

    And also, because the already weakened Great Demon God had been further injured by Saintess Fang Zhenfei and he had also consumed his profound strength to fight her; this had given Number 2 the opportunity to injure him.

    The Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian and now Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian was beginning to feel that he was truly the blessed son of the heavens for having so many lucky cultivation opportunities.

    Surely the Great Beyond Goddess must be blessing him as the new son of the heavens from the Great Beyond!

    1. I wanted to write about the dark schemes within an evil organization. Since it is an evil organization, not everyone is docile, right?

 Chapter 728 The Woeful Fates Of The Surrendered (R18)

    ?

    Also, in the Great Deste Divine Pce but in another location;

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer, Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire and Sagess Mel werepletely naked in this chamber and they were covered with plenty of yang essence all over their bodies.

    The ''Goddess'' Mel, former dark supreme leader of the Evil Cultivation Pce had now been reduced to Sagess Mel once more, after her cultivation attainment was absorbed by the Evil Cultivation God.

    Hissing at them coldly now was Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night, now a hideous hybrid between a deste and a demonic monster; she was no longer looking like a beautiful humanoid and she had be a hideous humanoid monster that have eight des on her back as well as long talons that could suddenly extend like swords.

    Also with her was the Goddess Alyssa now, formerly Sagess Alyssa after the Evil Cultivation God had rewarded her with some of his cultivation attainment for her extreme loyalty.

    She was now kicking the Sagess Mel between her naked legs andughing coldly, "Slut! This is what you deserved for betraying our Evil Cultivation God. Who can help you now? Not the Great Demon God. This is your just deserve!"

    The tables had beenpletely turned and it was now the turn of Goddess Alyssa that was mocking the Sagess Mel.

    The Sagess Mel was broken in spirit as well as in body.

    It was not only her but Number 3 and 5 as well.

    They had wept bitterly till they could no longer wept anymore and were totally numbed now.

    Their cultivation realms had dropped severely and it would even drop much further.

    It was because after the Evil Cultivation God had his fun with the three of them, he had rewarded them to the 1000 senior prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce who were all eager to dual cultivate with them; after all, they are only celestials and not everyone gets the chance to dual cultivate with an immortal.

    The result was that all their celestial cultivations received a huge boost at the terrible cost of the cultivation attainments of these 3 immortals as they were being forced by the evil dual cultivations of these dark celestials.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed at Number 3 and Number 5 and she was hissing in delight, "How does this feels? (hiss) You are all whores and deserve this punishment for not helping me against Number 1 (hiss hiss). You have even dare to mock me in front of Number 1. This (hiss), issss what you have deserved for the days for your life (hiss)¡­"

    This was not a threat at all; every day, they would be wantonly depraved by the senior dark celestials who were eager to ''y'' with them for their extreme pleasure.

    Number 2 was a monster now and she could no longer speaks properly except in a hissing sound and even the Evil Cultivation God had lost interest in her after herplete transformation.

    She waved her elongated talons and hissed, "As (hiss) for the rest of the Numbers (hiss hiss), they are now having f-f-fun (hiss)¡­"

    She meant to say that the lesser Numbers were all given to the 10 000 junior prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce for them to cultivate every day and they were all made whores.

    10, 000!

    Although these lesser Numbers are less powerful than Number 3 and Number 5 but they are still immortals and highly desired by the evil dual cultivators for their cultivations.

    All the Numbers were punished by Number 2 and the Evil Cultivation God!

    Number 3, Number 5 and Sagess Mel were so broken in spirit that they were just staring nkly; they know that when Number 2 and the Goddess Alyssa had left this chamber, hordes of evil dual cultivators would then re-enter again to resume their evil dual cultivations on them.

    At the beginning, Number 3 and Number 5 had thought that if they give up their pure chastity to the Evil Cultivation God, then they would be able to continue as his loyal guards.

    But the Evil Cultivation God had simply thrown them to his senior evil cultivators instead after he had stolen their pure yin essence.

    Not only Number 3 and Number 5, but all the lesser Numbers were all vited by the Evil Cultivation God and had their pure yin essence plucked before he tossed them to his evil cultivators to feast upon.

    And they were all immortals of the demonic race.

    If any of the draconian cultivators had survived then their maidens would be given the same treatment too; their maidens to the celestial males and their men to the celestial maidens.

    The Death God Mingwang did not have any followers from the Deste Divine Realm with ''him'' as ''he'' was more of a loner. But he had a group of secret followers inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth instead, just like the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    The Goddess Alyssa kicked Number 3 and Number 5 too between their naked spread legs, "You are all really extreme whores. The honey juices of your yin essences are now leaking nonstop and you are all need of more yang essence to feel satisfied. You have never thought that one day that the 3 of you will be the depraved ves of the entire Evil Cultivation Pce, right? Muhahaha¡­" <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Number 2 Murong Yue was hissing, "Now only (hiss hiss) Number 1 (hiss) is left¡­ I want her (hiss) to be the greatest number 1 whore (hiss hiss) in the entire (hiss) Great Deste Divine Pce (hisssss)."

    As Number 2 and Goddess Alyssa were mocking in coldughter over their former foes, Number 3, Number 5 and the Sagess Alyssa were all trembling nonstop¡­

    They were trembling nonstop because of their evil creeping mockingughter and also because they know by now that they should never surrender¡­

    The two of them including the Evil Cultivation God were all sadists¡­

    The Evil Cultivation God was not the same as the Great Demon God.

    He was just a petty immortal that once he was given the opportunity for absolute power, he would start to plot and punish all his opponents.

    The Great Demon God on the other hand was generous with his absolute power, preferring to entice his rivals to join him for more power.

    Either did the Great Demon God plucked any of the Numbers for their pure yin essence even when he was injured, preferring for them to be stronger in the future.

    Most of the Numbers were actually willing to be plucked by the Great Demon God though since he was the True God of their demonic race.

    The Great Demon God was always thinking ahead and he could tolerate the uneasy truce in his dark army that consisted of many factions which could barely tolerate one another with their own dark schemes.

    Number 3 and Number 5 were cursing in their hearts and werementing why did Number 1 not kill Number 2 on that fateful day¡­

    Even the Sagess Mel was full of regrets that her envy got into her better judgement as she tried to lure Number 1 away to look for a worthy opponent and this had caused the Great Demon God to hit her in a moment of rage when he had learnt of what she had done.

    At that time, she was jealous that Number 1 got away unpunished for beheading Number 4 and had also almost killed Number 2.

    It seemed to her that Number 1 was the favored daughter of the Great Demon God instead of her.

    That was why she had wanted to get Number 1 out of the way.

    But this had provided an opportunity for the Evil Cultivation God to hatch his schemes against the Great Demon God.

    It was rumored that Number 1 was a peaked 9th cultivation realm demonic immortal in the Deste Divine Realm and some say, she was on par with the Great Demon God.

    But no one could tell for sure because those that dared to challenge her were all killed by her.

    The Great Demon God had told the Sagess Mel that Number 1 had promised to do 3 things for him and she had already fulfilled 2 things. That was why he did not want to order her unnecessary.

    This caused the Sagess Mel to be upset because she had thought back then that Number 1 was just the subordinate of the Great Demon God and how dare she make such an agreement with the Great Demon God?

    That was also the reason why she tried to trick Number 1 into going to the Eons Firmament Mountains to fight Saintess Fang Zhenfei and she hoped that the Great Demon God would praise her.

    But instead, her n got backfired and Number 1 departed for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the wrath of the Great Demon God was upon her.

    If Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was still here in the Great Deste Divine Pce, this would not be their woeful fates today!

 Chapter 729 A Guilty Ji Yuan

    ?

    Spirit Divine Realm, in Snowy Pavilion City.

    The next morning, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were already jumping down to the stairs and they were excited.

    It was because they had made a nst night together.

    Ji Yuan would go and look for Han Muyuan while Xiao Muhan would go and look for Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    Naturally Xiao Muhan had to check the best brothel that Ji Yuan had mentioned and the name of that ce was called ''Heavenly Fragrance Brothel''.

    Just the name alone excited him to no ends.

    As for Ji Yuan, he had managed to loosen Maiden Flower Ju''s tongue when no one was noticing and he had got the ce of residence where Divine Consort Tang Manni was staying.

    As the two of them rushed down to the first floor of the tavern in a hurry, they were startled to see Fairy Concubine Xu Yifeiing down from her personal room as well.

    Now this had never happened and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had never left her personal room.

    Their first thoughts were: Have our bad deeds been discovered?

    The two of them were flustered immediately but they were even more flustered when they saw Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    It was because she was extremely enticing and she had rosy colors on her countenance now and she had braided her long hair together as she walked elegantly down the stairs with several of her followers.

    Moreover, she worn a strap of translucent cloth that left her back naked saved for a ne around her waist that went down between her butt. As for her bosoms, she had hidden her tits with a crescent golden jewelry.

    Xiao Muhan was the most flustered because he had not seen Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei for some time now and he was quite startled that she was such an astonishing great beauty that was so enticing in her elegance.

    He started to blink his golden eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing¡­

    Even Ji Yuan was gulping dryly as he thought: Is this really Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei? Howe she looks a little different from yesterday?

    He had suddenly remembered her kiss on his face as well on his lips yesterday¡­

    Xiang Li was shouting to Ji Yuan: Big Brother! Collect her too! What are you waiting for? She is obviously interested in you!

    Ji Yuan quickly frowned to Xiang Li: What the heck are you doing here, Xiang Li? Aren''t you supposed to be meditating? Don''t forget that we are in a trial and our targets are only the Divine Consorts and not any innocent maidens¡­

    Xiang Li protested immediately: Not even if they are very beautiful?

    Ji Yuan said sternly: Not even if they are the top beauty in the entire Spirit Divine Realm.

    Xiang Li: Uwu¡­.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly said: Listen Xiang Li, Divine Tang Manni is a top beauty too and we are going to look for her today, alright?

    Xiang Li: Uuuuuu~ Uwuuuuu~

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei quickly recovered from her startled look when she had suddenly barged into Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She was also looking a little flustered and was blushing; it was because she could still remember Ji Yuan and her awkward encounter yesterday¡­

    "Master Ji Yuan, where are you going? And Xiao Muhan as well?"

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li and quickly answered Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "We are both going on a walk to explore the city a little more. Hahaha¡­"

    He dared not tell her that he was actually going to look for her Sister Tang Manni¡­

    As for Xiao Muhan, he was also looking quite awkward; it was because he could not tell Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei that he was going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel and to find an opportunity to pay Divine Consort Dongfang Xin a visit.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "I wonder where is Fairy Concubine Xu going to so early this morning?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei said mncholy, "I am going out to try to find a cure for Master Ji Yuan. Don''t worry, I will do my best to help benefactor."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was feeling quite guilty and he was blinking his golden eyes out of shame; it was because while he was skirt chasing her sister, she was going out to look for a cure for him¡­

    Xiao Muhan was startled as he looked at Ji Yuan, "Brother, what is wrong with you? Are you sick? Why is Fairy Concubine Xu going out just to find a cure for you? Is it why you are dead yesterday?"

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiao Muhan''s questions and said awkwardly to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "Actually I am alright now. You can just send your followers to help you. There is no need to go out personally for my sake. Hahaha¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei shook her head gently, "No, Master Ji Yuan. For this, I have to go personally. Your matter is indeed grave and it is better that we try to resolve it as fast as possible first."

    Ji Yuan muttered silently: Please don''t be too nice to me¡­

    Xiang Li giggled as she added for him: Or I will fall in love with youuu¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, why aren''t you joining Anyang in her cultivation?! And why are you still here?!

    But Xiang Li totally ignored Ji Yuan and she was giggling: Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is so awesome beautiful today, don''t you think so?

    Ji Yuanughed weakly: Yea¡­

    But all of a sudden, he had realized that he had fallen into Xiang Li''s trap and he started to protest hastily and with great awkwardness: No, I mean. I don''t mean that. I mean yea to other things¡­

    He had given up on talking to Xiang Li and he quickly said aloud to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "We got to go now¡­"

    And he started to pull Xiao Muhan along with him as well, "Farewell andter!"

    This was too sinful to look directly at Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan did not know if he was able to suppress his willpower not to think about Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, especially when he was able to recall her enticing naked body in his soul sea so well¡­

    If he talks to her any further, he was really afraid that he would suddenly pin her down on the floor and be a beast of a man in the next instant.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei gasped softly as she raised her fingers to stop Ji Yuan but he was already gone with Xiao Muhan.

    She was trembling a little and was looking a little sad as she muttered almost incoherently, "Master Ji Yuan is really uninterested in any maidens. The way he looks at me, I can see his flustered looks¡­"

    She was thinking that Ji Yuan must have a bad impression of her by now and why did she have to kiss his face that day...

 Chapter 730 Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei

    ?

    The Guild of the Spirit Divine Records is the most powerful guild in the entire Spirit Divine Realm and its members are considered to the elites and are untouchable by the city state''s Divine Consorts.

    Here, all kinds of ancient records can be found inside.

    There are 4 types of esses in the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records and they are the Grey, Green, Blue and Purple.

    The Purple ess is considered to be the most sacred and the most forbidden. Only a Divine Consort have the spiritual strength to be granted ess into it.

    It is said that the current Guild Master of the Spirit Divine Records is a Great Divine Consort in a faraway city state.

    Right now, Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had just entered the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records with eight of her female followers.

    She quietly walked to the counter where there were 3 maidens attending to the many people that were entering the Grey, Green and Blue ess.

    Quite a few of the people here had recognized the elusive Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and was startled that she had appeared in this ce.

    It was because she was once a Great Divine Consort and well known in the Snowy Pavilion City 500 years ago.

    But after she had her cultivation crippled during her failed ascension, she had rarely made a public appearance.

    The first maiden at the counter lit a smirk, "I wonder who it is. So it is Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei with her followers."

    She herself was also a Fairy Concubine and she was at the same noble rank as Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei. That was why she had dared to be disrespectful.

    In fact, the other 2 maidens at the counter were all at the same Fairy Concubine noble rank as well.

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei did not mind the impolite greeting as she said gently, "I will like to be gained ess to the Purple ess this time. I have something important to check."

    The second maiden chuckled, "Purple ess?! I am afraid that that is only for the Divine Consorts and not you. Or do you want to call your sister Divine Consort Tang Manni to be here first?"

    The third maiden was also giggling, "Have you quarrel with your sister? Or you want us to find you another Divine Consort to open the Purple ess for you?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was quite startled by their attitudes toward her. She had not made her public appearances for a long time but she had not expected them to be so rude to her.

    Her 8 female followers were now rushing forward to demand justice for their Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, "What did you say just now? Dare you repeat yourself! How dare you be rude to our Fairy Concubine Xu!"

    The first maiden smirked coldly, "She still thinks that she is a Great Divine Consort. Maybe in her dreams, heh!"

    The second maiden chuckled, "Look, she even has her own followers with her. I am surprised that they all did not leave her yet for a better qualified Divine Consort. I''ve heard that many of her former followers have joined her sister Divine Consort Tang Manni and even the other Divine Consorts."

    The third maiden giggled, "She is so poor now and she has to run a tavern to maintain her followers. Maybe it is because she has a rich Divine Consort as sister that is actually helping her to maintain her followers."

    The 8 female followers of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei were really upset now and they were shouting at the 3 maidens.

    "How did you be rude to our mistress!"

    "Apologize now!"

    "Do you want to fight?"

    The first maiden smirked coldly at them, "We are all Fairy Concubines here. Have you forgotten your ce already after following a failed Divine Consort who is now a Fairy Concubine. Do you even know the sacredws of our city state if you dare to cross a superior spiritas noble?"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei lifted her fingers to calm her female followers, "It is none of your business. It is purely my business with them and I will settle this alone."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "But mistress! They have totally no regards for you¡­"

    "We can''t allow this slight to be forgiven this easily!"

    "Listen to our mistress first! She doesn''t want us to be in trouble of the spiritas sacredws¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly waved her hand and she had overturned the counter, startling the 3 Fairy Concubine maidens!

    The third maiden angrily shouted as she got up, "How dare you attack us! This is the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records and not your sister ce! Did you hear that, former Divine Consort Xu Yifei¡­"

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had suddenly waved another hand and had sent the third maiden flying off with a startled look, "Is this the best that you can do?"

    The third maiden was in disbelief that she would be so easily be overpowered by the profound power of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei¡­

    The first maiden and the second maiden had suddenly shed forward to attack Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    2 vs. 1.

    They can''t lose.

    But Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei had sent the two of you crashing back at the counter and onto the ground with wave of her profound power and they were startled with disbelief; this was impossible, right?

    Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei ignored them and before they could even react in the next instant, she was already at the portal of the Purple ess.

    In front of these 3 Fairy Concubines, the many spectors and her 8 female followers, she had raised her quick kick and immediately the powerful mystic runes that were protecting the Purple ess had shattered into pieces.

    Not just one mystic formation but a dozen mystic formations at the same time!

    This was impossible to do even for a lone Divine Consort.

    But Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was able topletely shattered the mystic formations of the Purple ess with just a single simple profound kick.

    Everyone was suddenly trembling with fear¡­

    Even her 8 female followers were also trembling but it was not fear but excitements!

    It is because only a Great Divine Consort could shatter the Purple ess in such a manner and the disparity between a normal Divine Consort and a Great Divine Consort is extremely big gap to close.

    That could only mean that right now, Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s was once again at the Peaked 7th Spirit Realm!

    To be urate, she was now Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei!

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei stared coldly at the 3 Fairy Concubine maidens, "What did you say about the spiritas sacredws again about being disrespectful to a Divine Consort?"

    The 3 Fairy Concubine maidens quickly fell to their knees and were kowtowing many times repeatedly and they were fearful, "May Great Divine Consort please forgive us for our ignorance¡­"

    They did not even dare to address Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei by her name anymore.

    In Snowy Pavilion City, there is no existence that greater than a Great Divine Consort. Even if they can find a Divine Consort to back them up, it is still futile against a Great Divine Consort.

 Chapter 731 Xiang Li Or Ji Yuan? Whos Right?

    ?

    Just before he and Xiao Muhan had parted ways outside the tavern, they were both doing their brotherly handshake dance as they said to each other. "Good luck, my good brother!"

    "You go for your Tofu Maiden Dongfang Xin and I''ll go for my fan girl Han Muyuan. Farewell brother!"

    Ji Yuan was now on his way to find Divine Consort Tang Manni and he was looking quite excited; he wanted to be the first one to obtain 100 Trust Points from a Divine Consort.

    He was even thinking: Is this even a SS Trial? It looks more like a B Trial. What luck and I even found a Divine Consort so early in the Trial. This is way too easy! Haha¡­

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, Xiang Li don''t understand. Why are you not going after Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and instead you want to go after Divine Consort Tang Manni?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That is because Divine Consort Tang Manni is the easiest."

    Xiang Li said with a look of disbelief, "Seriously? Big Brother, I think you don''t know how to count your numbers."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t know how to count?! Xiang Li, you must be joking with me! I can certainly count for sure."

    Xiang Li giggled as she pointed out, "You have -10 Trust Points with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin. So you need 110 Trust Points toplete this trial, right? But you have -250 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni, so you need a grand total of 350 Trust Points toplete this trial. Now, which one is the easier?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course it is Divine Consort Tang Manni."

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes: ¡­

    "Are you sure you can count, Big Brother?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Xiang Li, you can''t count like this. This is freaking wrong, I tell you."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Big Brother, your numbers fail for sure¡­"

    Ji Yuan growled, "Let me exin to you then. It is not about the Trust Points at all¡­"

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "It is not? Isn''t this trial all about the Trust Points?"

    Ji Yuan said with great exasperation, "Let me finish exining first, alright? Although it looks easier with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin but have you asked yourself how are we going to approach her? What if we can''t find her? Then won''t our Trust Points still remain at -10?"

    "But on the other hand," Ji Yuan grinned. "We know who Divine Consort Tang Manni is and we can approach her if we can find where she is staying. And we do know where she is staying because Maiden Flower Ju has told her the exact ce where she is staying¡­."

    "But if you look at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, it is said that she got at least 10 vis in the city. Do you think we can even find out which vi she is staying at such a short notice?"

    "Therefore, as long as we can find Divine Consort Tang Manni, we can gain her trust with my beautiful face. And also, she was previously interested in me, right?"

    "Now Xiang Li, do you get me?"

    "Divine Consort Tang Manni is therefore the easiest for us."

    Xiang Li pondered for a little while before she giggled, "Big Brother, then why don''t you go for Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei? She has kissed you, right? She is the easiest for us."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you do realize that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is not a Divine Consort, right? It is not about the easiest either."

    Xiang Li pondered for a while before she protested, "Big Brother, it is not about the numbers and it is not about the easiest. This doesn''t make any sense at all."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It is you that don''t understand. This makes perfect sense to me. If this doesn''t make any sense to you, so what is your logic?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiang Li happily replied, "It is easy actually. We make Xu Yifei into your maiden since she seems to like you and the two of you have already kissed. This is a big win for us!"

    Ji Yuan felt like banging his head on the wall as he weakly said, "Erm Xiang Li, we only got 70 days for this trial and we have almost used up a week so far. Our targets are only the Divine Consorts and not any of the innocent maidens here. Once we have banged them for 100 Trust Points, it is time for us to say farewell."

    Xiang Li protested immediately, "Big Brother, you can trust Xiang Li on this. If you bang Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, I am sure that you can pass this trial with flying colors."

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, "Trust you Xiang Li? Haha¡­ this must be the funniest thing that I''ve ever heard. No, trust me instead."

    Xiang Li pointed out, "No, trust me instead Big Brother. If you bang Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei, I am sure that you will gain the trust of her sister Divine Consort Tang Manni to 100 Trust Points immediately. Then you get to bang Divine Consort Tang Manni as well. This is called ''Double KO''."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Stupid Xiang Li. If we follow your n the it will surely fail."

    Xiang Li asked, "What if I am right, Big Brother? My sixth sense tells me that Xiang Li is right."

    Ji Yuan roared withughter, "You will be right? Your sixth sense? I have the seventh sense profound skill and I didn''t even dare to make such bold ims like you do¡­"

    Xiang Li asked again, "But what if Xiang Li is right?"

    Ji Yuan could not stopughing, "You can never be right because we can''t prove it. There is no way that I will chase the skirt of Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei. If I don''t chase her skirt, how do we prove that you are right? You are not making any sense at all."

    Xiang Li asked shockingly, "You are not chasing Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei at all?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "If I really chase her skirt then I would have caused her more harm because I am leaving in 70 days."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "You won''t regret this?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "By the Great Beyond Goddess, if I do regret this, then I will never bang again."

    Xiang Li gasped, "This vow is quite vicious. Then we won''t have any fun anymore, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I won''t regret this so you don''t have to worry about this. Why are you talking so much today? Aren''t you supposed to be cultivating instead? What the heck are you doing here?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Erm¡­ I am just taking a break. All work and no y, is boring."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Can''t you learn from Anyang instead? I didn''t even see her for some time now. She must be too focused on cultivating in my inner spiritual sea now. Go learn from her! Go now, Xiang Li!"

    Xiang Li looked a little sheepish, "Learn from Anyang?"

    It was because Fairy Anyang was actually not cultivating at this moment and Xiang Li knows about it.

    Fairy Anyang had assumed her true appearance and was too busy trying the many beautiful outfits that Ji Yuan had brought for his maidens.

    She was giggling to herself, "Who cares about cultivating when no one rest is cultivating..."

    Ji Yuan had told Anyang and Xiang Li that they could have a first-choice pick at the spirit outfits of the Spiritas and that was why Anyang was trying them out and she had been trying for ages now.

    Fairy Anyang was swinging her body like a beautiful model as she tried the many outfits and she was giggling to herself: These spiritas spirit outfits are too awesome. Although they may look revealing but they have plenty of invisible threads that offer a lot of profound defenses. This is so much better than the celestium robes of the Celestial Realm¡­

    Indeed.

    When the spiritas spirit outfit is donned, an invisible thread will also surround and protect the wearer in the form of an invisible profound aura and it will not hinder them.

    Fairy Anyang continued to swing her butts and turning her beautiful body, "s! I don''t know which one to choose¡­. These spirit outfits are all so sexy and nice¡­"

 Chapter 732 Ji Yuan Molest Divine Consort Dongfang Xin

    ?

    While Ji Yuan was moving excitingly through the bustling streets of Snowy Pavilion City, he was also at the same time arguing with Xiang Li and sweeping his eager golden eyes on the many beautiful maidens in revealing outfits that had caught his attention.

    This city or this entire Spirit Divine Realm was like a man''s paradise to Ji Yuan.

    Decadent lifestyle? That''s not so bad!

    At least in his mind, of course.

    When he had firste to this Spirit Divine Realm, he was actually quite nervous because this was a SS Trial and was much harder than the S Trial of the Hollow World that he had previously entered.

    In that Hollow World, he almost got freaked to his death, especially when he had encountered two all powerful God Immortals.

    A SS Trial was supposed to be much harder, right?

    And the Trial Spirit of this SS Trial had also confiscated his golden talismans and told him that she was going to send him to the hardest part of the trial ever, he was shocked.

    Luckily for him, he had managed to meet his Brother Xiao Muhan and had tricked him into giving him one of his golden talismans.

    At least with a golden talisman, he felt truly safe in this new hostile ce.

    But he was quickly rolling his eyes quite sheepishly; this ce looks more like a low level Trial than a SS Trial.

    He was actually quite excited about a SS Trial because he wanted to clear his first ever SS Trial. If there is anything that interest Ji Yuan other than cultivation, it was to join a Trial.

    Back in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, he was an expert in the low level Trials mainly because he was a frequent visitor to the same Trial, over and over again.

    He could only join the low and the mid Trials because the high level Trials sometimes require hundreds of years to open and the powerful celestial ns carefully keep the high level Trials as a secret so that only their prot¨¦g¨¦s have ess to the great cultivation wealth in these high level trials.

    These high level Trials were mostly in the holynds of these powerful celestial ns and he would never dream of going there alone anyway as he did not want to offend these powerful celestials.

    But whenever he had heard that there was a trial that he could go to, he would rush to join the Trial.

    His love for the trials were too much that he was sometimes called the MIA sect leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect and he was rarely in the Five Heavens Peak, preferring instead to hand over the sect affairs to his two core prot¨¦g¨¦s Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    Even without any trials, he would actually prefer to make friends with the other Brother Cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and drinks with them.

    Actually, he had another reason not to remain in the Five Heavens Peak for too long.

    It was because he was under constant assassination threats from the ck Hands which was an assassin organization and he was moving constantly to try to outwit them since he did not know where their hideout was.

    It took him almost 2 centuries but he had managed to kill their Saint Assassin Leader of the ck Hands while he was just a golden supremacy.

    This freaked the ck Hand ever since then and they had promised him not to make further assassinations on him because Ji Yuan by now had discovered their true identities from a secret scroll that he had looted from the dead leader and their secrets were safe as long as he lived.

    And the person that he had entrusted this secret to, was actually Saint Xiao Muhan.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had suddenly caught a gorgeous maiden sitting with her porcin white leg crossing over the other leg as she sat at the opening of a tavern.

    He gulped as he caught the candy looking view between her legs¡­

    And so did Xiang Li who said to him in his soul sea: Big Brother, what a gorgeous maiden.

    This maiden had a big curved naked bosom that bulged out of her slender frame. Her tits were protruding out by a thin veil of golden and white silk like clothing from her neck to her waist. Otherwise, like most of the maidens here, much of her modesty was exposed.

    Xiang Li giggled again to Ji Yuan: Her boobs are as fantastic as Maiden Chi. Exactly what you like.

    Ji Yuanughed when he had heard Xiang Li''sments; it was because she was only too right. Ji Yuan liked his maidens a little more mature and bigger butts. Unfortunately for him, most of his maidens look like young maidens due to their cultivation and he likes a beautiful maiden with a devil body.

    Heughed: Xiang Li, you know me best. Haha¡­ Unfortunately, we have no time for any other maidens. Remember our mission. Bang the Divine Consorts in this ce and quickly exit the trial here. Then im our fantastic SS Trial rewards. I don''t want to best again. The feeling sucks and it is a huge blow to my manly pride¡­"

    This gorgeous maiden had also caught Ji Yuan looking at her and she had suddenly lit a smile¡­

    Ji Yuan saw her smile and he too, lit a grin to flirt with her as he walked a little slower away now...

    Xiang Li said: Wow, Big Brother. She seems to be interested in you¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuanughed: This is normal with my beautiful looks. Didn''t you notice that many of the maidens here are also looking at me? I bet that they will wet themselves if I still got my beautiful beard with me¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted with a frown: Not your stupid beard again. No one likes your stupid beard that you are never going to regain.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: That is only because you have never seen me with a beard or I bet that you will wet your panties when you see my bearded look. Haha¡­

    Xiang Li protested loudly: Never! Never! And NEVER!

    The gorgeous looking maiden with purple hair had suddenly got up from her seat and she had shed to attack Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan was startled but he did not dare to take her blow; it was because he could sense that she had a stronger profound strength in her fingers than him so he only focused on evading her profound attacks.

    Power, Defense and Spirit Cultivators have one advantage over a sword cultivator like Ji Yuan. Their profound strength could be mustered fairly quickly and it correspond to their cultivation realm directly,

    But as Ji Yuan was a sword cultivator that specialized in sword energies, he had to go through one extra step by mustering his profound energies into his sword or sword fingers first and the profound power of his mustered profound energies depended on the grade of his sword that he could obtain.

    That was why sword cultivators need divine swords tobat the same cultivation realm opponents that specialized in Power, Defense and Spirit who could muster almost the same profound defense when they were attacking too.

    Ji Yuan, in order tobat his weakness in profound defense, rarely allowed his opponent to hit him or else it would be quite fatal for him.

    But at this instance, he did not want to summon his immortal scabbard that contained his two saintly divine swords to block off the profound attack of this gorgeous maiden as he did not view it as a real fight.

    After all, he did not see that this gorgeous maiden was using any weapon and he was the one that was molesting her with his eyes.

    So, he grabbed her right boob to fondle her before he tossed her a gold coin as he fled the scene of his ''crime'' as heughed jovially.

    Last night, Ji Yuan had learnt some of the customs of the spiritas females and he was frankly quite shocked.

    For example, he was allowed to grab the boobs and butts of the maidens here as long as he could pay them and this was considered to be their honor to be appreciated.

    This was actually their proud ancient tradition.

    That was why Ji Yuan had tossed a gold coin to the gorgeous maiden before he hastily fled.

    He was thinking: What luck today. I have a feel of such a gorgeous boob today. I really love the spiritas tradition. Haha¡­

    This gorgeous maiden was stunned and many of the maidens on the streets were also stunned¡­

    It was because this gorgeous maiden was actually Divine Consort Dongfang Xin!

    When she had seen Ji Yuan and the ck ring on his finger, she knows immediately that he was a celestial.

    She had attacked him, not because he was looking at her but because she was attacking a celestial instead.

    But she had never expected he was so quick and even before could make more of her profound attacks, he had grabbed her right boob in public and had tossed her a gold coin.

    This was a blow to her pride in front of so many others and it was a way of saying in the Spiritas Tradition, "I have now imed this maiden as my own."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was trembling a little and looking a little lost¡­

    This man can actually grab her boob, tossed her a gold coin and fled quickly at the same time in a single blink of an eye before she could even react.

    She was too careless and did not check his cultivation realm with her spirit sense.

    Her female followers that were at her back were also stunned and did not know what to say.

    Now Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was waiting in this busy street for the sights of any celestials because their trial has now started.

    Every 500 years, a couple of hundreds of these celestials would appear in the fertile crescent ins of the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad. Or NATO for short.

    These 12 city states were also the biggest and most powerful in the Spirit Divine Realm because of their huge poptions, numbering from 500 000 to over a million.

    The rest of the city states in the Spirit Divine Realm are much smaller and have a poption size of 5000 to 50 000.

    This disparity was due to the wantonness of the male spiritas in the past and the current spiritas race has to depend on the fertile bloodlines to have any kind of poption growth.

    In the fertile crescent ins of NATO, the poption is more fertile than the other regions and therefore, in the 12 major cities, it is also where the forbidden ascending spiritas tower of the great games are located.

 Chapter 733 Divine Consorts Ding JieEr & Sun Dingjun

    ?

    When Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had appeared in an inn for a morning meal with Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, many of the followers of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was startled.

    Even Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was also startled.

    It was because Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly appeared with 30 of her female followers in the inn and the inn had to be evacuated suddenly to make way for her female followers.

    Now everyone knows that Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was almost always alone and she had rarely taken her female followers along with her.

    And this time she had 30 of her female followers with her.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun only had 10 of her female followers and she was blinking her eyes as she stared at Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    It took her a while to ask, "Sister Jie''Er, you have a cultivation breakthrough?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled softly as she purposely turned her body around to show off her new spirit outfit.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun could tell that this spirit outfit was really expensive and she slowly asked, "You seem to have be rich all of a sudden¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled as she sat down with her, "Sister Dingjun, heehee. I am indeed richer. This meal is on me. I am going to treat you and your followers today so you can just order generously."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun really could not believe what she was hearing, "Really?"

    It was because the real Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er would never taken the initiative to treat her or even her followers.

    Today was just too weird for her liking.

    So she asked directly, "Sister Jie''Er, you don''t mind sharing why you are suddenly in such a good mood, do you?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er blushes shyly before she giggled softly, "Sister Dingjun really likes to tease your sister here¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun rolled her eyes: when did she even try to tease her?!

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er continued shyly, "Aiyo! Shushh~ Alright, I shall tell you since you are so eager to know. I have a cultivation partner now."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun almost fainted on the spot, "Whattt¡­ you have a cultivation partner now?! Who is he?"

    This was really earth shaking news¡­

    In fact, if a Divine Consort has a cultivation partner in the city, this news will surely rock the entire city.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was about to tell her that it was Yuan Beluga when she had suddenly spotted Ji Yuan walking past the inn in his new beautiful toga.

    She suddenly raised up to shout excitingly, "Yuan Beluga, you are also here?"

    Ji Yuan was startled that someone was actually calling him by this fake name and he turned his attention from looking at the beautiful maidens in the street to look inside the inn.

    And he got a big shock of his life; it was because he had recognized that it was Divine Consort Sun Dingjun in the inn.

    And this Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was the one that had destroyed the rebel''s hideout not long ago and Ji Yuan was really startled to see the astonishing beautiful Divine Consort Sun Dingjun in this ce.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was also startled when she saw the ck ring that was on this Yuan Beluga and she thought: he is a celestial?!

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled as she called out to Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga,e in quickly! I am your Little Jie''Er."

    Ji Yuan first though was that Little Jie''Er had somehow knows that he was the rebel leader and she had betrayed him to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    He was suddenly thinking: I haven''t met Divine Consort Tang Manni yet and I have met Divine Consort Sun Dingjun¡­

    He smiled bitterly, "Little Jie''Er, it is you¡­"

    He got a shock when Little Jie''Er had suddenly jumped out of the inn and she had quickly pulled him in, "Follow me inside. I''ve got a surprise for you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said as his golden eyes did not leave Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "Actually I know what your surprise is¡­"

    Xiang Li was saying to Ji Yuan: Oh I know Little Jie''Er. Isn''t that Divine Consort Sun Dingjun too? Big Brother, they are all so beautiful. So, are you going to bang them together?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly answered back: Now it is not the time for any jokes, Xiang Li. I think we are in big trouble¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled as she introduced Ji Yuan to her good sister Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "Yuan Beluga, meet Divine Consort Sun Dingjun!"

    Then she giggled and said to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "And this is Yuan Beluga, my cultivation partner."

    Ji Yuan was startled: What the heck?! When did I be her man?!

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun gasped softly as she examined this ''Yuan Beluga'' closely, "He is indeed quite handsome looking¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled, "I know right. And he is also a multi-billionaire too."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun gasped, "Real-Really?"

    Many of the female maidens in the inn were all looking at Ji Yuan and appraising him at the same time too.

    Ji Yuan did not even know what was happening so he just muttered weakly, "Erm, my humble greeting to Your Divine Consort¡­"

    But he was also thinking: She didn''t attack me? Maybe my identity as rebel leader isn''t discovered yet and this is a good time to gain her Trust Points?

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun looked at Ji Yuan and she asked him curiously, "Are you really this rich?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "I own a gold mine. Hahaha¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was suddenly blushing as she smiled lovingly, "You really look good."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuanughed, "Oh really? Haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled, "You really makes me blush just by looking at you."

    Ji Yuan was startled: She has a good impression of me? Does this mean that my Trust Points are actually increasing?

    So he quickly replied, "Actually you look really good as well and I am so impressed by your beautiful looks. I am also blushing too, haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was smiling too, "You really makes me want to blush more and more¡­"

    "Stop with all these blushing talks!" Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly interrupted Divine Consort Sun Dingjun with a soft but angry yell. "Yuan Beluga is my man and he got nothing to do with you."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun ignored the interruption and she smiled at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, let me ask you something. Are you really Jie''Er''s man?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er panicky said, "Yes of course. I''ve just told you. Stop asking him these awkward questions¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes nkly, "Erm, no?"

    That was an honest reply.

    He did not even know what was going on around here¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was suddenly heartbroken as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan¡­

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled with great delight, "Well, look at me. I mean, I look prettier than Jie''Er right?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a puzzled look, "Erm, maybe. And?"

    He was now trying to figure out what was going on first...

    This Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was actually prettier but Little Jie''Er was more adorable looking. Both are considered to be great beauties.

    It was a hard pick between the two of them but Ji Yuan wanted to earn his Trust Points from Divine Consort Sun Dingjun. So...

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiles at Ji Yuan, "I am probably way better than Jie''Er too. Since you have said that she isn''t your cultivation partner, why not consider me as your cultivation partner instead?"

    Ji Yuan was startled: Did he just hear correctly?! Divine Consort Sun Dingjun is asking me to be her cultivation partner and this means that my Trust Points will be 100 with her in no time¡­

    So he quickly answered her with a delightful grin, "Erm, why not?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was in tears as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, after what we have been through, you are forgetting me to be with this slut? How could you!"

    Ji Yuan frowned at her, "Little Jie''Er, I am not your dao cultivation partner. When did we even have a rtionship together? Did you misunderstand or something?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er said with great mncholy, "You have hold me in your waist for hours. If we are not cultivation partner, how could I allow a man to hold my waist?"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was startled as she stared at Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, "What?! He holds you in your waist for hours?"

    She turned to ask Ji Yuan with an angry look, "How long have you been holding her waist?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by her sudden fierce look, "Just 6 hours only..."

    Then Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had stood up and said angrily, "6 hours?! This Yuan Beluga is really a badass rascal. Let''s go!"

    And she had angrily stormed off suddenly with 10 of her female followers.

    At the same time, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had also stormed off angrily with 30 of her female followers.

    It was only when Ji Yuan saw Little Jie''Er storming off with so many maidens that he had suddenly realized she was also a spiritas noble.

    So he weakly asked the maiden at the counter, "Erm, who is she?"

    The maiden at the counter hummed coldly, "I really never met a man like you. You can make two Divine Consorts storm off in rage at the same time."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What?! Little Jie''Er, she is a Divine Consort?"

    The maiden at the counter hummed coldly, "She is Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. What? You didn''t know about it and you hold her waist for hours?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Exactly what is wrong with holding her waist? Isn''t it just a fine only? I can afford it."

    The maiden said angrily, "Only you decadent men don''t see anything wrong with our sacredws. You may as well join as a rebel. Touching and holding are two different things. You can''t hold a maiden''s waist intimately unless you have agreed to be her cultivation partner. And unless she also agrees, she won''t allow you to hold her waist also."

    Ji Yuan almost banged his head¡­

    Today he had just offended 2 Divine Consorts¡­

    Not wait, he had also offended Divine Consort Tang Manni too.

    His only constion was, he had yet to offend Divine Consort Dongfang Xin yet and he may yet have a chance.

    Maybe Xiang Li was right after all.

    He should have aimed for Dongfang Xin right at the very start.

    Author Note:

    1. We all know that JY had already encountered Divine Consort Dongfang Xin in thest chapter:X

 Chapter 734 Visiting Divine Consort Tang Manni (1)

    ?

    It was not too longter that Ji Yuan had found the estate where Divine Consort Tang Manni was supposed to be at.

    He had not known that Snowy Pavilion City was divided into the inner city and the outer city.

    The outer city was where Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern was while the roads of the inner city were bigger, cleaner and more spacious but less people around; it looked more like a huge private garden.

    Snowy Pavilion City was really a huge city with more than a million people.

    But at this moment, Ji Yuan looked a little confused and dejected.

    It was because he had never thought that Little Jie''Er was actually Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er herself and he really could not believe it.

    And he had badly screwed it up now

    She was a free cultivation partner for him and he could gain his 100 Trust Points through her.

    Xiang Li was sighing loudly, "I told you to pursue her but you didn''t. Now we are all screwed."

    Ji Yuan growled, "When did you ask me to pursue her in the first ce? You have been asking me to screw all the beautiful maidens that we have met. Of course, I can''t do that. That is not part of my trial."

    Xiang Li asked, "Did I? Like? For example?"

    Ji Yuan reminded Xiang Li, "Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei for example. Have you forgotten so fast?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "She is an exception."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why so?"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "Because she kisses you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "This reason is toome. I''m not going to talk to you anymore, Xiang Li. You are totally unhelpful to me for my trial."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Because I am right. And you are wrong. So you''re not talking to me?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You are never right¡­"

    Xiang Li chuckled jovially, "Oh yes? I did tell you to go after Han Muyuan but you did not want to and you end up with -250 Trust Points¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ..

    Xiang Li continued to giggle, "And I did tell you to go after Little Jie''Er as well but you didn''t¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled, "What if Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is a divine consort in the future?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "By the time Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei has be a divine consort, that will be 700 yearster and we only have less than 70 days now."

    Xiang Li pondered for a while, "Or because Big Brother can help find a miracle herb to help Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei to be a divine consort instead? Isn''t this a faster way to earn Trust Points¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "I am the one that is doing the trial. I don''t need unhelpful tips from you."

    He had decided to ignore Xiang Li for now because he had reached the estate where Divine Consort Tang Manni was supposed to be at and he did not want to seen talking to the air.

    And he was too distracted to enter his soul sea to talk to Xiang Li for now.

    There were two dozen maidens that were guarding this estate and Ji Yuan saw a long white stone celestium that led upward to a vi on top.

    As soon as he approached the gates of this estate, the two dozen maidens had immediately issued him a stern warning. "Go away. This ce is not for you to visit!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Wait a minute! I am Ji Yuan and I am a friend of your divine consort. Even your divine consort has to call me Master Ji Yuan¡­."

    The two dozen maidens were amused and they wereughing among themselves.

    "Everyone is a friend of our divine consort but which one is truly her friend?"

    "You are a man. And our divine consort doesn''t have a man as a friend."

    "Are you going away?"

    "Or do you want to force us to teach you a lesson and thrown you into the dungeon?"

    Ji Yuan was blinking his golden eyes; he had suddenly realized that it was quite impossible to even meet Divine Consort Tang Manni. To think that he had so many opportunities in the past few days to interact with her but he had to screw it unknowingly.

    All of a sudden a maiden had walked down the white celestium stairs, "What is themotion about? Why are all of you here at the gate and not driving away the intruder?"

    The two dozen maidens were startled as they quickly greeted, "Spirit Concubine Fay. This man doesn''t want to leave and we are about to teach him a lesson¡­"

    All of sudden, Spirit Concubine Fay looked startled as she asked. "Master Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan was startled too but he had no idea who this maiden was.

    However he quickly answered her, "Yes I am."

    Spirit Concubine Fay smiled, "You are in a new toga now and I almost can''t recognize who this beautiful man is."

    But she quickly said solemnly, "You may not remember me but I am a personal follower of our Divine Consort Tang Manni. I saw you a few times¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking: There are always so many beautiful maidens around Tang Manni. It is hard to remember all of them¡­

    Spirit Concubine Fay continued with a bitter smile, "So what do you want bying here?"

    Ji Yuan was also smiling bitterly, "Erm, I am here to apologize to Divine Consort Tang Manni. I hope that she would give me a chance to make an apology to her."

    Spirit Concubine Fay shook her head, "You are thest person that our divine consort wants to see. You have made her so sad these past days¡­"

    Before she could finish, the two dozen maidens were all muttering with startled shock at the same time. "He is that man that makes our divine consort cries until now?! I want to kill him for our divine consort!"

    Spirit Concubine Fay turned around to shout, "Silence!"

    Then she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, you have heard them. Our divine consort has been in deep sorrows till now. Please go away."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he stammered, "What did you say?! She has been crying till now?"

    All of a sudden, he felt so guilty for hurting Divine Consort Tang Manni with his ugly words¡­

    He cursed himself: I should have restricted myself. I actually did not want to hurt her in the future and that is why I need to be harsh with my words. Am I really wrong?

    Left with no other choice, Ji Yuan began to sigh heavily and he was turned around to leave¡­

    All of a sudden, Spirit Concubine Fay said from behind him. "Wait Master Ji Yuan. What if I were to let you in to talk to my divine consort?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly turned his head around, "Really?"

    He was literally jumping for joy.

    Spirit Concubine Fay nodded with a smile, "Maybe you are the only one now that canfort my divine consort. She is really very mncholic today and have been weeping nonstop."

    Ji Yuan quickly patted his chest with great delight, "Don''t worry! I will make her as cheerful as the sun today! Come, take me to her now!"

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, are you sure that she is not bringing you to be ughtered or something, to avenge her divine consort?

    But there was no answer from Ji Yuan because he hadpletely ignored Xiang Li for now.

 Chapter 735 Visiting Divine Consort Tang Manni (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan eagerly followed Spirit Concubine Fay into the estate and he was impressed by the garden scenery that he was seeing.

    There were several maidens on patrol after he had walked up the white celestium steps and he felt like he was entering a man-made forest.

    He could not resist a chuckle, "This ce is so huge. I can''t believe that we are inside a city wall."

    Spirit Concubine Fay smiled, "We spiritas actually like to stay in the woods and be close to nature. We don''t stay in the cities in the past."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You don''t? But this is a city right?"

    Spirit Concubine Fay smiled, "All cities are originally human''s cities that we have taken over."

    Ji Yuan was startled; he had heard from Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei that the spiritas are actually now a mix race of human and spiritas and there were no pure spiritas.

    They looked just like humans but the shapes of their ears and the color of their eyes looked a little different and have too many variations.

    While golden eyes were stillmon among them, but it was also umon to see a a mixture of blue, green and golden eyes.

    That was why he was able to mix among spiritas and pretended to be one of them.

    As for this Spirit Concubine Fay, she actually has two green eyes instead of blue or gold.

    He did not see any red or crimson eyes among them since red eyes were a mark of the demonic cultivators instead.

    As he walked in the serene garden, he had suddenly realized another thing as he watched another group of maidens in their patrols.

    They did not seem to have any swords or weapons?

    So he asked curiously, "Erm, Spirit Concubine Fay. Howe the patrols around here do not have any weapons? How the heck do you patrol from a fierce intruder?"

    As a sword cultivator, it was quite unimaginable for him not to have at least a trusty sword around with him.

    Spirit Concubine Fay turned to look at him with a wry smile, "Celestial Ji Yuan, it is not our way to fight with a metallic weapon. Although we have many heavenly relics and divine swords that we have taken from your celestial race but we are unable to disy the full extend of our spirit power with them."

    This time it was Ji Yuan who was truly startled as he took a step backward, "You know who I am? Your divine consort tells you who I am?"

    Spirit Concubine Fay disyed a faint smile, "It is all too easy to tell."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "How easy it is to tell?"

    He had to know this weakness of his and to hide it.

    Then Spirit Concubine Fay giggled softly as she turned her eyes to look at him before slowly moving down to the bulge that was below his torso.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He guessed that he had to castrate himself first then¡­

    Well, he is a great saint and he has a startling recovery ratepared to most of the other celestials. He can always regrow his ''thing'' after a few painstaking years.

    The most priority thing for him now is toplete this SS Trial to im his cultivation reward. Not only to bang 1 Divine Consort but all 4 of them to im the number 1 spot to gain the best cultivation reward; it is a lucky thing for him that this trial only starts when he had just arrived so he does have a chance¡­

    For that, he has to be totally ruthless to himself and be as subtle as possible in his trial mission¡­

    Xiang Li who can hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts began to giggle: You know Big Brother. I don''t know if you can hear me now. But I can tell you that this is a totally bad idea. You can''t bang the divine consorts if you castrate yourself¡­

    Ji Yuan of course was not able to hear Xiang Li as he was focusing on how to handle this ''awkwardness'' that he was now facing when Spirit Concubine Fay had suddenly exposed his identity as a celestial.

    He could only bitterlyugh, "Oh, Hahaha¡­ this is a little too obvious and that is only because Spirit Concubine Fay is so enticing."

    Spirit Concubine Fay returned a flush look as she turned around to sh her naked butt for the pleasure eyes of Ji Yuan again.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Then she warned him as she swayed her waist and butt, "You shouldn''t havee here actually. The other Divine Consorts are trying to capture as many of the celestials as possible. You will only be risking yourself.

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly when he had heard her; it was because he just got ''abandoned'' by 2 Divine Consorts, Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun. They did not even give him the chance to exin himself.

    He guessed that he had to work extra work in courting Divine Consort Tang Manni soon¡­

    -

    -

    -

    A short whileter, Ji Yuan and Spirit Concubine Fay had reached the vi that Divine Consort Tang Manni was at.

    Ji Yuan saw that there were many paths in this vast estate and many other buildings as well and they looked more like huge manors instead.

    If he hade alone, it was quite impossible to know where Divine Consort Tang Manni was truly at.

    Spirit Concubine Fay said to Ji Yuan, "We have arrived."

    It was a white pce building and there were dozens of female maidens in this ce.

    Right now Ji Yuan had no mood to appreciate these beautiful maidens and he said sheepishly, "This is a vi?"

    Frankly speaking, thisrge pce looked nothing like a vi at all.

    Spirit Concubine Fay smiled with a nod, "This name of this ce is called the Vi De Spirit Manni."

    Ji Yuan rolled his sheepish golden eyes: I need more cultural exchanges with these spiritas maidens first¡­

    Spirit Concubine Fay said to the other maidens in this ce, "This is Master Ji Yuan. He hase here to visit our divine consort¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan noticed the hostile looks from these maidens when they had learnt of his identity¡­

    He could only gulp and said panicky, "I havee to seek forgiveness. Hahaha¡­"

    Soon he hade to the inner chamber hall of this vi and he was quite startled to see Divine Consort Tang Manni in a dress of gold and white finery that he had never seen before.

    In this view, she was truly very beautiful and even Ji Yuan was awestruck by her great beauty...

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was bitterly crying and she was still in tears; there were many wet tissues that were on her table and even her dozen female followers around her were all panicky trying tofort her.

    Ji Yuan felt very bad but he was thinking; aren''t cultivators devoid of emotions? Howe she has such a breakable ss heart?

    Spirit Concubine Fay quickly greeted her divine consort, "Your Divine Consort, erm¡­ I have brought someone to see you¡­ he is¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni''s countenance was full of hot tears as she cried out, "I am not seeing anyone¡­"

    It was only then that she saw that it was Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said, "Maiden Han Muyuan¡­ erm I mean Divine Consort Tang Manni, I am here to see how you are¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled that it was Ji Yuan but she raised her voice to say coldly, "I don''t know who you are. Get out of here now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 736 All The Fails

    ?

    Xiao Muhan was looking excited;

    It was because he had finally found the ''Heavenly Fragrance Brothel'', the best brothel in Snowy Pavilion City, ording to what Ji Yuan had said to him.

    It may take him some time to do so but it was totally worth the effort.

    It was because he was forced to be the living furnace of Matriarch Xi Jingping and in order to free himself from this fate, he had so abstained from any dual cultivation for at least a hundred years.

    On paper, this sounded easy but this was not.

    It was because it was quite unbearable for him, especially when he could see so many half-naked maidens around him all the time in this city.

    This was the ultimate test of his willpower and it was something that he could no longer suppress; especially when he had to gain 100 Trust Points by banging a divine consort for this trial.

    He began to mutter to himself, "Sometimes I have to admit that Brother Ji Yuan is indeed the worm of my stomach. He knows me so well and he has checked this information for me. Haha¡­"

    While he appeared to be at loggerheads with Ji Yuan most of the time and rarely agreed with him, but their friendship had actuallye a long way¡­

    In both their hearts, they were close brothers and Ji Yuan had even entrusted the names of the ck Hands to him in case he was no longer around one day.

    Ji Yuan was someone that could somehow provoke his friends around him to be at ease and to speak faster than they could even ponder. Mainly because he was so talkative for a supposedly ''Sword Saint'' or maybe it was because he was a ''Great Poet'' simply because he talked too much.

    Half of the time, Ji Yuan was just talking rubbish.

    Only his real friends know about this and they did not take him seriously unless he started to act a little funny by acting upon it.

    He had once tried to warn Ji Yuan when they were alone, "You know Brother Ji Yuan. You should talk less like those high level celestials. This will help your cultivation and keep your soul sea pure."

    But Ji Yuan had replied him, "What is the point of keeping my soul sea pure when my body is already impure?"

    Ji Yuan was of course referring to the time when he was captured by Little Princess and he was being made into her depraved ve for a month before he made his daring escape from Little Princess and the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    He had lost his manhood to Little Princess and he was extremely bitter about this and did not tell anyone about his humiliating experience.

    But Ji Yuan had told him before, "I hate Little Princess of the Evil Cultivation Pce the most."

    Imagine his shock when he saw Ji Yuan and Little Princess together inside the Empyrean Warrior Empyrean¡­

    He could only say to himself: I have better not take his little rascal''s words too seriously. He can flip flop his words as easy as flipping over a prata. How the heck did he be a great saint in such a short time with his puny cultivation?

    But he did not want to think about Ji Yuan for now.

    It was because he had something more important to attend to.

    Xiao Muhan smiled as he greeted the two maidens that was standing at the Heaven Fragrance Brothel, "I am Master Xiao Muhan and I am really rich. Bring me your best maidens in the brothel. I want to look at all of them. Haha¡­"

    The maiden on the left said coolly, "I am afraid that we can''t. Please leave immediately."

    Xiao Muhan was growling, "Didn''t you hear me? I am a rich patron. How dare you reject a rich patron like me?"

    The maiden on the right hummed coldly, "No matter how rich you are, you still have to wait until it is night. Have you ever seen a brothel that opens in the day?"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    He has actually forgotten about this because this is a different heavenly realm than the Celestial Realm. So he did not think that it will be the same as the ce where he hase from.

    The maiden on the left added, "So please leave now. We hope that you wille tonight. There will be a show only for the richest patrons."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "What show?"

    The maiden on the right smiled mysteriously, "The most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City will be performing a show. You won''t regret attending the show tonight."

    Xiao Muhan blinked his golden eyes, "Most beautiful maiden in the Snowy Pavilion City? Divine Consort Dongfang Xin will be in this show?"

    Both maidens appeared to be startled and the maiden on the right said sternly, "Our divine consort is someone that is noble. How could she even be in a show to entertain the male spiritas. Don''t you have any perverted ideas on our divine consort or we will report you as a rebel."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan began to smile bitterly, "I was only just asking. I have the purest thoughts among all the men in the city¡­"

    The maiden on the left warned him as well, "It better be. Rich or not rich, you are still a male so don''t forget your ce when you are here."

    Xiao Muhanughed weakly, "Of course I won''t. Haha¡­"

    But he was instantly curiously about this most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City¡­

    Back to the Vi De Spirit Manni;

    Ji Yuan was now at a loss when a tearful Divine Consort Tang Manni had ordered for him to leave immediately.

    Spirit Concubine Fay said to him, "I am afraid that you have to leave now."

    Ji Yuan was not someone that would admit to a defeat so quickly so he raised his voice to say like a true poet to Divine Consort Tang Manni, "I know that I have hurt you really badly¡­"

    He paused for a while before continuing with a sorrowful look, "But it is because I didn''t want to hurt you. I do like you¡­"

    All of a sudden Divine Consort Tang Manni had walked slowly to him and she was looking at him with a woeful look¡­

    Ji Yuan continued like a pro actor, "In my heart, you are the purest and most beautiful maiden that I have ever met¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni muttered, "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    JI Yuan knows that he had touched her heart and he replied with a smile, "Ye-yess my dear¡­"

    He did not finish his words because the sorrowful Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly pped his face as she said coldly, "You are only interested to pursue me because you need 100 Trust Points toplete your trial. Try harder the next time but I won''t let you have the chance."

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he blinked his golden eyes: How the heck does she know about my trial mission?!

    Divine Consort Tang Manni raised her voice to say coldly, "Send him out of here. I''ll never want to see this man ever again!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He did not even have the chance to show off his beautiful toga in front of her before he was kicked from her presence.

    This was a blow to his manly pride¡­

    If Xiao Muhan knows about this, he would probably beughing and mocking at him for failing to win over Maiden ''Han Muyuan''.

    Spirit Concubine Fay said to him weakly, "Please follow me, Master Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan had no other choice but to leave; it was because he was only interested to court Divine Consort Tang Manni for his trial mission. Now that his scheme had been discovered, he was too ashamed to remain in this ce.

    He muttered as he left the hall, "Farewell¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni buried her head on the table and she continued to weep most bitterly, "He has really left. He is only looking for me because of his trial mission and nothing else. Why didn''t he exin a little more¡­"

    The dozen female followers around her were all looking sorrowful and lost; they really did not know how tofort their divine consort.

    One of the maidens suggested weakly, "Maybe we ought to ask Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei toe tofort her sister instead¡­"

    ------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Now that all the Divine Consorts are slowly revealing to Ji Yuan and we get to know their personalities, the next exciting part of this SS Trial is going to be kickstarted soon.

 Chapter 737 Lets Go To The Brothel Together Tonight!

    ?

    Ji Yuan was looked defeated as he returned to the tavern.

    Maiden Flower Ju looked a little surprised when she saw him entering the tavern but she was not entirely surprised either; it was because Ji Yuan had been trying to ask her where Divine Consort Tang Manni had been stayingst night and she had guessed that he must be trying to visit her today.

    Just as Ji Yuan had entered the tavern, Xiao Muhan had also entered the tavern with a sad look as well.

    Ji Yuan was surprised to see Xiao Muhan and Xiao Muhan was surprised to see him at the same time too.

    "What the heck?!" They had both said together, surprised to see each other so quickly.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he replied honestly, "I guess that Maiden Han Muyuan doesn''t want to see me again. How about you?"

    Xiao Muhan frowned a little before he pulled Ji Yuan to a corner before he whispered to him, "Darn you, Ji Yuan. The brothel here doesn''t open during the day."

    When Ji Yuan had heard him, he looked startled before heughed weakly. "Don''t look at me like this for not reminding you. I am only free at night and I never visited the brothel during the day. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan refused to believe Ji Yuan and he was cursing him softly, "You have forgotten and I''ve also forgotten. I guess that I have to wait until tonight then."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to him, "Good luck to you then."

    Xiao Muhan looked at Ji Yuan before he grinned, "Tonight, the most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City will be at the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel. Wanna go and take a look?"

    Ji Yuan stared at Xiao Muhan, "You are not worried that I will snatch your maiden?"

    Xiao Muhan patted him with a grin, "Don''t worry. She isn''t a divine consort and I am sure that there are plenty of other beautiful maidens. How beautiful a maiden can she be? More beautiful than Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei?"

    He had suddenly noticed that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was really an astonishing beauty ofte and she had even recovered from her frail look and had more fleshtely.

    Therefore, he did not feel safe leaving Ji Yuan alone with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei in this tavern and that was the main reason why he wanted to bring Ji Yuan along with him.

    Ji Yuan pondered for a while before he said with a heavy sigh, "Well, I am only going to the brothel with you for some drinks¡­"

    Xiao Muhan quickly patted Ji Yuan as heughed jovially, "Don''t be so discouraged. Women are like clothes and you can always change them."

    Ji Yuan nodded at this little encouragement before he had suddenly thought of something, "I seen Divine Consort Sun Dingjun today."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "What? Did you talk to her or something?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised by Xiao Muhan''s reaction so he weakly answered, "Erm, I just saw her from afar. She was with her followers though so I didn''t dare to talk to her. And I am on my way in a hurry to look for Maiden Han Muyuan."

    He did not want to tell him that he had actually talked to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and she had even wanted him to be her cultivation partner instead of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    Having rejected by 3 divine consorts in a single day was quite unbelievable to Ji Yuan and he was sighing at his terrible bad luck today.

    He did not even dare to check his Trust Points with these divine consorts.

    Xiao Muhan suggested to him, "Let''s rest until night time then."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "So be it."

    As the two of them walked past the counter to their rooms, Ji Yuan had turned to Maiden Flower Ju to ask, "Is your mistress back yet?"

    Maiden Flower Ju shook her head, "She isn''t back yet and won''t be back so early."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Huh? Where did she go to?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Naturally she is looking for a cure for you. Have you forgotten?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes; he did not really put that into his heart. So he felt a little guilty.

    He sighed to himself: Actually, when this trial is over, I can always ask Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng for help to remove that demonic sword inside my inner spiritual sea. There is no need for her to do anything for me. I don''t feel anything wrong yet except for that 1 time death experience¡­

    He muttered to himself with a deeper sigh: Actually she is a good maiden¡­ unfortunately we are from two differently worlds¡­

    "Well." Ji Yuan quickly said to Maiden Flower Ju, "Let her know that we won''t be around tonight if she does return."

    Flower Maiden Ju giggled softly, "Are you visiting a brothel tonight?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Erm, we want to take a look at the night life in the city. Hahaha¡­

    How the heck did she knows that we are visiting a brothel tonight?! I have heard that even the auction house is opened at night. Can''t it be that we are actually visiting the auction house instead? Is there something that is on my head that says that we are visiting the brothel this very night?

    Maiden Flower Ju giggled softly, "Tonight, all the rich male spiritas in the city are going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel to meet the most beautiful maiden in the city. Aren''t you curious to know how she looks like?"

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan looked a little surprised, "Oh? All the rich men are going?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I have never seen her before. How do I know if she is truly beautiful? Beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder. Maybe I have a different taste from the other men."

    Xiao Muhan was also weakly saying, "Same here! I totally agree with Brother Ji Yuan here."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he asked Maiden Flower Ju, "Erm, is she really the most beautiful maiden in the entire city? How does she look like?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Actually I have never seen her before so I don''t know if she really is the most beautiful maiden in the city. But that is what Divine Consort Dongfang Xin has imed."

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "Well I don''t care about the other maidens but It will be nice to meet Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and see her in unparallel person up close. Haha¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Well, you canpare the two of them tonight¡­"

    JI Yuan was startled, "You mean that Dongfang Xin will be going to the brothel tonight?"

    Maiden Flower Ju returned a wry smile, "Of course she will be there tonight. She is hosting a banquet there tonight with the most beautiful maiden in the city. Why do you think all the rich men are flocking there tonight?"

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were suddenly looking at each other¡­

    And they were both thinking: Divine Consort Dongfang Xin will there tonight so¡­

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were suddenly grinning and they were looking excitingly at each other¡­

    Their moods werepletely different now as they walked up to their personal rooms together and they wereughing jovially to each other.

    Maiden Flower Ju was shaking her head as she muttered to herself, "They are obviously going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel tonight, yet they are denying it. Men are so dishonest¡­"

 Chapter 738 Everyone Got Their Own Plan

    ?

    In the new rebel resistance hideout.

    Elder Xue Tianzun had quickly evacuated their previous hideout because he had suspected that their new Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji was actually a spy for the divine consorts.

    This Ji Yuan had virtually bankrupted the entire rebel resistance now and the rebels across the 100 city states were now in huge turmoil.

    There were even reports that the rebels in 10 of the city states were so poor that they were forced to surrender to the divine consorts in their city states.

    Things were now in great perilous on their side and this Yuan Ji had even neglected to return to the rebel hideout and to ount for his actions.

    Worse, he had hidden himself in Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern.

    This Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was the sworn enemy of the rebel resistances. Although her cultivation has been crippled to the Fairy Concubine 6th spirit realm but she still has plenty of followers with her; she is still a force to be reckoned with and the rebel resistance dare not appear in her tavern lest they would be captured or killed by her followers instead.

    Today Elder Xie Tianzun had a meeting with the 8 rebel leaders of Snowy Pavilion City to discuss how they should move forward with this terrible mistake of making Yuan Ji their Great Rebel leader.

    These 8 rebel leaders were also the strongest spirit cultivators in the rebel resistance group and they were all 6th spirit realms cultivation experts.

    Right now, he needed their loyalty and their help.

    That was why he was now sitting in a round table with the 8 rebel leaders.

    Elder Xie Tianzun said solemnly, "I have summoned the 8 of you urgently here because our rebel resistance is now facing a worst crisis since its founding. The spy of the divine consorts has infiltrated our rebel resistance group and have even be our Great Rebel Leader. Therefore, we need to remove this traitor immediately."

    "So, I need the 8 of you toe together and to remove this traitor. And the one that can sessfully kill this Yuan Ji shall be our new Great Rebel Leader."

    The first rebel leader said, "How about ourck of funds issue? How you expect to our brethren in this city and the other cities?"

    The second rebel nodded, "We need to solve our funds issue first. We can''t work for free here."

    When he had said that, the other 6 rebel leaders were also shaking their fists angrily.

    The third rebel leader said, "You are the one that hase out with this new rule of appointing a new Great Rebel Leader. You ought to settle this."

    Elder Xie Tianzun said weakly, "I must admit that this is a mistake. But the mistake is also all of us, right? I just need all of you to contribute 1 million high grade spirit stones to the resistance''s cause and we can solve our funds issue for a short while¡­"

    Then he firmly said, "This will give us time enough to kill this traitor Yuan Ji and to get our funds back."

    The fifth rebel leader asked curiously, "So this is the n? But what makes you think we will contribute 1 million spirit stones just because you have said so?"

    The sixth rebel leader nodded, "We will lose 1 million spirit stones for nothing¡­ and it is a lot."

    Elder Xie Tianzun had suddenly pped his hands and a moving beautiful maiden had suddenly walked into the room.

    She waspletely naked and she looked docile.

    The 8 rebel leaders were all startled; it was because they had recognized her as the main consort of Elder Xie Tianzun and all 8 of them had wanted to bang her for the longest time because of her beauty.

    Elder Xie Tianzun smiled slowly when he saw their attention, "Today, I will be offering you my consort for the 8 of you. So, is this trade off fair to all of you?"

    The seventh rebel leader quickly said, "This is most fair. I don''t mind paying for all 8 million spirit stones¡­"

    The eighth rebel leader angrily said, "Rubbish! You can''t have her alone. I also want her."

    Suddenly all 8 rebel leaders were excited and they were lustfully looking at this moving beautiful maiden.

    Elder Xie Tianzun smiled, "So I guess that we have a deal now. You may now take her for your own pleasures."

    When he had said that, all 8 rebel leaders had left their seats and they were soon pinning this extremely moving and beautiful maiden down¡­

    The beautiful maiden tried to struggle up but she could not and only her lewd screams could be heard as the eight men began to try all kinds of depraved acts on her¡­

    All these while Elder Xie Tianzun was watching emotionless;

    He had already known that these 8 rebel leaders had long wanted to y with his main consort but they would not and dare not because Elder Xie Tianzun had a superior rank than them; they could only allow Elder Xie Tianzun to y with their consorts because this was their spiritas tradition.

    But today, they finally got their deepest lustly desire fulfilled.

    -

    When it was almost dusk, Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had moved into action almost immediately by rushing down the stairs of the tavern.

    And they were already doing their brotherly handshake as they rushed down at the same time.

    After reaching the first floor of the tavern, Ji Yuan saw that Maiden Flower Ju was still manning at the counter and asked. "Erm, is your mistress back already?"

    Maiden Flower Ju shook her head, "My mistress isn''t back yet. She had just sent a message that she would be out for a couple of days and won''t be back so fast."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he thought: Is she going all out to help me? I am not worthy of her affections. I can''t fall in love with anyone here as I am leaving this ce as soon as my trial has ended. I gonna find a time to hurt her somehow¡­

    But he said to Maiden Flower Ju instead, "Farewell. We won''t be back so early as well."

    Maiden Flower Ju nodded below continuing on her tasks at the counter, "Good luck to you."

    When Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had left the tavern, a maiden at the corner quietly approached Maiden Flower Ju to say. "Surely they are going to the brothel for sure."

    Maiden Flower Ju nodded slightly, "Follow them quiet and don''t let them discover you."

    The maiden nodded, "I''m not worried about Xiao Muhan but this Ji Yuan is pretty hard for us to follow. He has a strong sense of surveince and he keeps looking back to sweep his divine sense. And we have lost him several times already. We dare not follow him too closely."

    Maiden Flower Ju answered, "You have the best tracker in the city so I am not too worried about her capability. Continue on following them and report to me on their every moves. This time you won''t lost Master Ji Yuan. He is going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel for sure."

    The maiden nodded slowly before she bitterly said, "Today we have also lost him. Even though we know that he is going to look for Divine Consort Tang Manni but we dare not follow him too close lest we are being discovered by him. I''m sorry."

    Maiden Flower Ju answered gently, "Don''t worry. As long as he is safe, it is alright. There are probably nothing important along the way."

    She did not know that Ji Yuan had actually met Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin before he had seen Divine Consort Tang Manni today.

    The maiden said, "By the way, I''ve noticed something very weird recently."

    Maiden Flower Ju asked curiously, "What is it?"

    The maiden said in a low voice, "We are not the only ones that are following Master Ji Yuan. It seems that he is being tracked by the rebels as well."

    Maiden Flower Ju was startled, "Are you sure about this? Why should the rebels be tracking Master Ji Yuan."

    The maiden nodded slowly, "We have tracked them down and saw one of them talking to the rebel elder Xie Tianzun. So, there is no doubt about it."

    Maiden Flower Ju nodded slowly, "I will let our mistress know about this and seek her instructions on the steps that are needed to be taken. You may go now."

    The maiden nodded before she exited the tavern quietly.

    Maiden Flower Ju began to ponder why the rebels were following Master Ji Yuan, "Hmm, there was one night that we had lost Master Ji Yuan in the darkness and that was when Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was attacking the rebel hideout¡­"

    It was also after that night that Master Ji Yuan had suddenly be very rich.

    She was beginning to wonder if Master Ji Yuan was actually spying for the rebels?

    If so, this could be very bad and it would sour his ties with her mistress Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei for sure.

    Maiden Flower Ju was again sighing softly.

    She could only pray that he would not be killed by Divine Consort Dongfang Xin at the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel instead.

    After thinking for a while, she walked to another maiden who was quietly sipping tea at a corner to say to her. "I want you to go to where Divine Consort Tang Manni is and to tell her that we may need her to protect Master Ji Yuan. We just don''t have the strength to stop a powerful divine consort like Divine Consort Dongfang Xin."

    This maiden nodded, "Spirit Concubine Flower Ju, I will do it now."

    With that, she too had quietly exited the tavern.

    With that Maiden Flower Ju had returned to her counter to continue on her own tasks.

 Chapter 739 The Heavenly Fragrance Brothel (1)

    ?

    When Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had reached the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel, it was already night and they could see a lot of carriages that were being pulled by the many different spirit divine beasts.

    There were many men that were streaming into the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel.

    It was actually the second time that Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had seen more men than maidens in a single ce.

    The first time was of course when they had identally stumbled into the rebel''s hideout.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned to Xiao Muhan and he was gasping, "I know that I have forgotten something. I am supposed to go to the rebel hideout for a meeting with all the rebel leaders for a new strategy against the divine consorts in the Snowy Pavilion City. Why didn''t you remind me about it?"

    Xiao Muhan turned to look at Ji Yuan with a weak look, "I have forgotten about this as well. Anyway, it is you that is supposed to go and not me. What have you been doing on that day to have caused you to forget about something this important?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It was the same day that you have killed me."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan quickly pulled Ji Yuan to the entrance of the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel and he was looking a little sheepish for ''killing'' Ji Yuan that day, "Let''s have some fun first instead of brooding over such a small matter. Just tell the rebel resistance that you are erm¡­ busy on that day and I''m sure that everything will be alright. I am sure that they are not so petty as to kill you over such a small matter, right?"

    As soon as the two of them had walked to the entrance, the same 2 maidens could be seen and there were 4 other maidens as well.

    The same 2 maidens had of course recognized Xiao Muhan that they had met this afternoon but this time they were smiling, "Masters, you havee again. Do you want a bronze tally, a silver tally, or a gold tally?"

    Xiao Muhan asked with a chuckle, "Haha. Naturally, we are rich patrons and we want a gold tally."

    The maiden on the left smiled, "That will be 10 million high grade spirit stones."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "How much for the bronze tally then?"

    The maiden on the left answered, "That will be 500 000 high grade spirit stones."

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "This is a little expensive. For 500 000 high grade spirit stones, I can y with five beautiful maidens¡­"

    The maiden on the right was beginning to stare coldly at him, "It isn''t even enough for a meal in this ce and you can only toast a maiden only¡­"

    "I''ll take the gold tally." Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her and had tossed her 10 million worth of high grade spirit stones.

    The maiden on the right quickly used her spirit divine sense to do a quick gauge before she smiled broadly, "Please enter and wee to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel!"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he walked into the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel; 10 million high grade spirit stones were now nothing to him!

    Xiao Muhan quickly said to the 2 maidens as he followed Ji Yuan into the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel, "I am with him, Hahahaha¡­ I have a contribution in this gold tally as well¡­"

    Before the 2 maidens could stop Xiao Muhan, he was already inside with Ji Yuan.

    The maiden on the left said weakly, "Well?"

    The maiden on the right answered coolly, "Don''t worry. That is only the entrance fee. Things inside the golden patron seats are expensive. I am sure that we will earn back another 10 million spirit stones quickly. And that beautiful man there looks like a generous person that can spend big."

    The maiden on the left nodded weakly, "Let''s hope so. I mean, we do have some cases of the men running away after they screwed for free."

    The maiden on the right said, "The valuation of that beautiful man''s toga is at least 10 million with discount or 100 million valuations in the open market for a man. He is definitely a wealthy man."

    The maiden on the left nodded but she said, "But the man that is with him, looks like a poor pauper."

    The maiden on the right: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The inside of the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel was indeed exquisite.

    There were many men and maidens in this ce.

    The maidens in this ce were really beautiful and enticing.

    The minute that Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had entered this ce, they were immediately enthralled by the beauty of this ce.

    As they had the golden tally, they were showed to a seat that was high up that from the main hall and facing the main stage.

    There, they had a bird eye view of all the great beauties in the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel that were scantily dressed andughing enticing to the men that were below.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan had noticed that the female entertainers were all dressed colorfully while the female attendants were all dressed in white.

    He could scarcely use the word dressing for them since they were all too scantily dressed. Maybe having more colorful jewelries on them were the more fitting words to describe the differences.

    The 4 female serving attendants that were with them asked, "Masters, do you want some female entertainers to apany you for the night?"

    Xiao Muhan grinned immediately, "Sure. Bring as many as you can!"

    1 of the female serving attendants said with a look of disbelief, "That will be 1 spirit jade or 1 million high level spirit stone here."

    Xiao Muhan was stunned, "This is daylight robbery¡­"

    But Ji Yuan turned to the female attendants to smile casually, "Bring us 10 of these beautiful entertainers. I want the best in this ce¡­."

    With that he had tossed them 10 million high grade spirit stones and another 10 million grade spirit stones.

    Heughed, "The rest are tips for the 4 of you. Haha¡­"

    The 4 female attendants were shocked; it was because this master had just paid them more tips than even the female entertainers themselves.

    The first question that was on the minds of these 4 female attendants and Xiao Muhan was actually: He doesn''t know how to count?

    Ji Yuan naturally had a purpose; it was because he had wanted these maidens to loosen their tongues so that he could have more information about this ce and also their Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    And also, because he knows that they would be trying to give him a better service in exchange for more tips.

    1 of the 4 female attendants immediately smiled and said with great delight, "I will go and get the 10 most beautiful entertainers that are avable for this master now."

    With that she had exited the golden patron room.

    Ji Yuan peeped at the white curtains that were in front him to the stage below, "So when can I have the honor to grace the noble appearance of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and the most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City?"

    1 of the female attendants giggled softly, "Our divine consort is already here and she is in that golden patron seat over there."

    With that she had pointed at a golden patron seat that also had white curtains that concealed the golden patron room that was inside.

    Ji Yuan''s first thought was: So that is where the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin is¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was also thinking: So that is where my target is... I need to find a way to impress Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and to get her attention¡­

    The same female attendant continued with more smiles, "As for the most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City, she will be here very soon now¡­"

    Then she whispered with a soft giggle, "I have seen her before. She is really the most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City."

    Ji Yuan was gasping with great delight, "Haha. Then I must definitely have a look at how she looks like."

    Xiang Li was also delighted: Me too, Big Brother! I really love this ce. Why don''t we make this our new home?

    But of course Ji Yuan was not paying attention to Xiang Li for some time already and he was now asking the remaining 3 female attendants, "You know. Can I change my spirit stones to spirit jades here? Erm, what is the exchange rate again? Is there a limit?"

    Another female attendant took the opportunity to say with smiles, "Master, of course you can. There is no limit as long as you can afford it. The rate will be 1 million high grade spirit stones for 1 spirit jade."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he hastily took out 1 billion high grade spirit stones, stunning all 3 of the female attendants with his great show of wealth. "You don''t mind exchanging 1000 spirit jades for me, right?"

    Even Xiao Muhan was stunned, "You rascal! You have 1 billion high grade spirit stones and you have only given me 50 million high grade spirit stones?!"

    Ji Yuan said with a straight face to Xiao Muhan, "I have actually more spirit stones than you think. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    The reason why Ji Yuan was exchanging his spirit stones for spirit jades were because in the Celestial Realm, spirit jades are much more precious and have an exchange rate of 100 million high grade spirit stones to 1 spirit jade. And most of the cultivators that could exchange for one will save it for their breakthroughs or ascension as it has a more efficient rate than the high-grade spirit stones.

    Another attendant said to Ji Yuan, "Master, why do you need spirit jades for? It is a little toomon for the likes of you. Why not exchange for more immortal jades instead?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "There are immortal jades in this ce? What is the exchange rate?"

    The same attendant smiled, "That will be 100 million high grade spirit stones to one immortal jade."

    Ji Yuan immediately took out another 3000 gold coins that were worth 3 billion high grade spirit stones and chuckled, "I am a little poor now. Can you exchange 30 immortal jades for me?"

    When the 3 female attendants saw that Ji Yuan had so much gold on him and he was wealthy enough to exchange for 30 immortal jades, they almost fainted on the spot.

    One of the female attendants that did not speak earlier but was also the prettiest began to giggle, "I wonder if master already has a cultivation partner?"

    Xiao Muhan in the meantime was now staring nkly at Ji Yuan; he really regretted the fact that he did not have any of the low value gold coins with him for this trial or else he would have banged all the maidens in Snowy Pavilion City with his great wealth.

 Chapter 740 The Heavenly Fragrance Brothel (2)

    ?

    Words had quickly spread that there was a Master that was extremely wealthy that had suddenly appeared in one of the golden patron seats and he was also extremely young looking and beautiful looking.

    Many of the beautiful entertainers in the Heavenly Fragrantly Brothel were suddenly intrigued by this Master that hade.

    "I need only 10 of the most female entertainers in this Master''s golden patron room. So, who is avable?"

    Dozens of female entertainers were all rushing forward and they were all trying to prove that they were more alluring than the others.

    "Pick me. I am beautiful enough¡­"

    "No, pick me instead!"

    "I am willing to pay you 100 000 high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "100 000 high grade spirit stones are too little. I am willing to pay 300 000 instead!"

    "500 000 high grade spirit stones!"

    "Take me instead. You may take all mymission!"

    Even the other female entertainers that already had a patron was asking for a chance to be with this wealthy Master.

    However, the female attendant could only pick 10 of them and when she had finally picked the 10, she ended up far richer than she had imagined!

    She felt so lucky to have served this Master tonight and she was sighing that she was not a female entertainer instead¡­

    Soon she had returned with the 10 beautiful female entertainers to Ji Yuan''s golden patron room and Ji Yuan was indeed moved by the beautiful figures of the 10 beautiful female entertainers.

    Almost immediately, the 10 beautiful female females were crowding around Ji Yuan and trying to cuddle next to him with their soft giggles and sexual appeal.

    They had swarmed to Ji Yuan because he looked just like the wealthy man that they had imagined in his rich man toga and moreover he was also the most beautiful face that they had ever seen too.

    And they were not shy to put Ji Yuan''s hands on their bosoms too.

    The female entertainers that could not find a seat next to Ji Yuan was forced to sit next to Xiao Muhan; they were all looking bored and did not even bother to look at him as they were all looking at Ji Yuan and trying to find an opportunity to cuddle next to him.

    JI Yuan was delighted to see that many beautiful swaying figures and he wasughing jovially.

    He thought: So, this is the power of wealth?

    As the beautiful maidens were allowing him to take advantage of him and Ji Yuan did not want to get into any trouble with the sacred spiritasws, he said to the 10 female entertainers. "All 10 of you will get 10 million high grade spirit stones from me, including the 4 attendants in this room."

    When he had said, all the female entertainers and attendants were all stunned; 10 million high grade spirit stones each?!

    Their startled surprise soon gave way to the many beautiful smiles from the 10 female entertainers and shocked look of happiness from the 4 female attendants.

    Xiao Muhan was the most shocked; that was 140 million high grade spirit stones¡­ with this amount of high grade spirit stones, he could even setup a new medium size celestial sect in the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But this also caused his manly pride to protest as he said aloud, "I can also give 10 million high grade spirit stones away¡­"

    Immediately a few of the female entertainers that could not cuddle next to Ji Yuan, had begun to look at him with some interests¡­

    Xiao Muhan grinned when he saw their interested look and continued, "Take my 10 million tips and share it among yourselves¡­"

    Almost immediately, all the interested female entertainers began to look uninterested and were all looking away.

    The disparity between a 10 million tip each and a 10 million tip that needed to be shared by so many, were a big gap indeed.

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    He was further startled to see that many of the profound straps from the female entertainers were loosened all of a sudden and they were all inviting Ji Yuan to fondle their beautiful breasts and perked tits.

    Ji Yuan was also startled but he was soonughing jovially with great delight.

    And so was Xiang Li even though Ji Yuan was not paying any attention to her: Big Brother, I loving this awesome ce!

    Ji Yuan chuckled delightfully as he fondles the bosoms of these female entertainers, "You know, if you are all willing to show me what is below your torso, I can give another 10 million high grade spirit stones each."

    Almost immediately all 10 of the female entertainers were all removing the hidden view that was between their most sacred valley for Ji Yuan to view.

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was also greatly flustered as he saw the views that were in front of him, "Haha¡­ this is good, too beautiful¡­"

    He quickly took out 100 million high grade spirit stones to give it to the 10 female entertainers and he was soon grabbing their butts and feeling his fingers down below.

    Xiang Li was flustered as she giggled: Big Brother, I am loving this! We have been in a sexual starvation for such a longggggggg longggggg time already!"

    Xiao Muhan could not believe his poor eyes when he saw that Ji Yuan had tipped another 100 million high grade spirit stones and he was also exposed to the beautiful views that was in front of him.

    Now his pants were suddenly wet; it was because he was a depraved dual cultivation ve and a living furnace. How could he control himself in such a situation?

    This Ji Yuan was like his heart demon!

    Xiao Muhan was flustered as well as angry with Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, you rascal! Do you have any sense of shame? Are you even a man of culture? Have you forgotten why we are here in the first ce¡­"

    He did not finish because he saw that Ji Yuan was not even listening to him and he had two beautiful naked maidens in both of his arms. He could see that Ji Yuan''s fingers were moving in their crotch areas, in-between their legs and there were even lewd juices that were dripping down from them¡­

    All 10 of the female entertainers hadpleted stripped themselves naked in front of Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 741 The Heavenly Fragrance Brothel (3)

    ?

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was indeed sitting in one of the golden patron rooms and she had a good view of the hall below as well as the stage below.

    Also with her, was 12 of her female followers.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was the host of a special show tonight and it was almost time now to unveil the city''s most beautiful maiden for the men to appraise with their own eyes.

    For this, she had been nning for a couple of days now.

    But tonight, she did not have any mood to appreciate this special event of hers and she was looking a little mncholy from the event that had happened this morning and her pride was suddenly destroyed.

    It was because there was a celestial cultivator that had groped her in public and had even tossed her a gold coin to im that she was his maiden.

    This was an ancient spiritas tradition of iming ownership over a maiden and this celestial cultivator had precisely done this in public.

    All of a sudden, her pride had been destroyed by this celestial cultivator and she was looking a little lost.

    This morning, she was actually waiting at the busiest part of the street in order to spot any celestials that may have passed through.

    1000 years ago, a celestial had betrayed the knowledge of his trial to a divine consort and news of this trial quickly spread among the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    The divine consorts soon learnt that every 500 years, at least 300 celestials would descend from the Celestial Realm to their Spirit Realm and their solo purpose is just to gain 100 Trust Points from the divine consorts for thepletion of their trial and they would then return to the Celestial Realm in 70 days.

    Although there were thousands of city-states across the entire Spirit Divine Realm but the activities of these celestials were only focused in the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and less on the other smaller satellite city-states of the 12 major cities.

    On average, there should be at least 25 celestials in each of the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    These celestials could easily be identified by the ck rings that could be seen on their fingers. So, when the first celestial had been discovered, it means that there are more toe.

    That was the reason why Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had been out hunting for more celestials as champions to join the uing great games at the spiritas tower so that she could gain the necessary spiritual power for her cultivation breakthrough.

    1 of her female followers tried to cheer Divine Consort Dongfang Xin by saying, "We got a really rich patron tonight and he is literally throwing away lots of spirit stones. We can really profit a lot just from this single patron¡­"

    "Yeah!" Another of her female follower smiled, "He has already opened up plenty of spiritual wines and food. The room of this patron is like a grand feast now."

    However, Dongfang Xin continued to be disinterested and even her lips were trembling as she continued to recollect the event that had happened this morning¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The golden patron room of Ji Yuan was now looking more like a grand banquet than anything else. Although he was being surrounded by 10 beautiful naked maidens but he was still fully clothed.

    Ji Yuan had told the 4 female attendants to put so much spirit fruits, drinks and food on the big table in front of him that it was so overwhelming full now.

    The 4 female attendants were not afraid that this master would not pay for this feast but they were quite shocked that he had ordered so much.

    Even Xiao Muhan was startled, "Do you know that all these foods on the table is going to cost you an arm and a leg?"

    Indeed, it was something like 300 million high level spirit stones.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan said to the 10 female entertainers and he wasughing jovially, "What are you all waiting for? Let''s have a feast while we wait for the show to begin."

    The 10 female entertainers were startled, "We are going to have a feast?"

    Even Xiao Muhan looked a little startled.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "That is why I''ve ordered so much food for all of us to share, am I right?"

    1 of the naked female entertainers giggled as she asked him, "Master, there is a personal room here too. If you want to, you can take us while we wait for the show to start."

    Ji Yuanughed too but he firmly shook his head, "That is not my purpose ining here. I havee here to watch the most beautiful maiden in the city and also to have a good feast with all of you."

    His reply startled the 10 naked female entertainers.

    Then Ji Yuan pointed at the food, "You should all eat too and this is good for your cultivation."

    Xiao Muhan murmured weakly, "Actually I havee for another purpose you know¡­"

    Ji Yuan had heard him but he continued to say, "Now tell me how much it is needed to redeem all of you from this ce? I shall grant you your freedom. In additional, I will also give you another 10 million high grade spirit stones."

    When the 10 naked female entertainers had heard Ji Yuan, they were all startled; they had never met anyone like him before.

    1 of the female entertainers stammered, "Master, you don''t like us or?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled jovially, "I am happy to hold all of you in my arms but I did say that I am just here to drink and have some fun. Knowing the 10 beautiful maidens here today really makes me happy. Consider this our lucky fates today¡­"

    He did not want to have any rtionship with any other maidens except for the divine consorts since they were his trial objectives in the Spirit Divine Realm. He is a sentiment man and he treats his rtionship seriously.

    Earlier, he had been only been teasing them and they were also perfectly alright with it since they were female entertainers. They had all wanted to provoke a reaction in Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan was ying along with them by fondling them.

    However that was already his limit.

    The truth was, Ji Yuan was actually quite depressed today; he had never been rejected so many times today and these maidens here really lightened his mood for the night.

    Even knowing that the most beautiful maiden in the city would soon make her appearance was not enough to make him happy as his real target was actually Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and he had been secretly looking in the direction of her golden patron room¡­

    He was wondering if she knows that he was here by being so high profile in her ce? But so far, there seemed to be no reaction from her side...

    If so, then maybe buying the freedom of her female entertainers would surely provoke some kind of a reaction from her instead?

    If not, he would just have to buy the freedom of all her female entertainers in this ce and to force her to shutdown her Heavenly Fragrance Brothel, then maybe this would provoke a reaction from her and an audience with her?

    Ji Yuan was not the only one that was being depressed here.

    Xiao Muhan was also feeling quite depressed that Ji Yuan did not know how to appreciate the beautiful maidens here, "I am on fire, Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    But Ji Yuan simply told him with a chuckle, "These spirit drinks here will be able to calm your fires. And we have so many lovely maidens to apany us tonight. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan sighed bitterly but he had said it almost incoherently, "It is precisely that. All foods but no action. Are you sure that we are in a brothel and not a restaurant?"

 Chapter 742 The Most Beautiful Maiden In The City-State

    ?

    There was a sudden loud sound of a trumpet and a lovely female attendant below the hall was now announcing with her profound voice, "I am sure that you are all here to grace the great beauty of the most beautiful maiden in our city state and it is now the time for her toe to the stage to make a performance for all our honorable guests here today¡­"

    The hundreds of men were all gasping and their attentions were all turned to the stage¡­

    Above the hall, Xiao Muhan was saying aloud to Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan, did you hear that? The most beautiful maiden in the city state is about toe to the stage."

    Ji Yuan continued to feast on the spirit foods that were in front of him, "She can''t be more beautiful than the 10 beautiful maidens in our room."

    He did not even bother to go to the balcony of the golden patron room to take a look and only Xiao Muhan was there.

    By now, the 10 female entertainers had already put on their straps to cover themselves when they realized that this ''Master Ji Yuan'' was not interested in them and instead, he was more interested in the exotic foods that wereid in front of him.

    Xiao Muhan began to smile weakly as he said to Ji Yuan, "You know. Not unless she is going to perform naked in the stage. Now this is going to be quite a show, don''t you think so? Nothing can be as beautiful as that¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was staring coldly in the direction of Xiao Muhan¡­

    Xiao Muhan caught his cold gaze andughed weakly, "I was only joking with you¡­"

    Actually, he had already known that Ji Yuan was purposely trying to me his fires earlier because precisely he knew that he was a living furnace.

    But under the watchful eyes of Ji Yuan, he was forced to suppress his fires in public and then Ji Yuan had cooled his fires by forcing him to drink the cold spirit drinks that were on the table.

    It was Ji Yuan way of saying to him: You are only a recent living cauldron. If you can suppress your wanton fires, it won''t be too long before you are able to remove the seal of being a living furnace from your soul sea.

    Right now, Xiao Muhan could actually feel a crack in the living furnace seal in his soul sea and for that, he was quite grateful to Ji Yuan¡­

    The lovely female attendant below continued to announce, "When the performance is over, there will be a bid and the highest bidder shall have a personal night with the most beautiful maiden in our city-state¡­"

    "Now, let''s wee the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue to the stage now¡­."

    Ji Yuan nearly puked out his spirit food when he had heard the name of his senior sister that was being mentioned.

    Even Xiao Muhan was stunned, "Isn''t she your senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister?"

    Ji Yuan had now shed to the balcony of the golden patron room and he was gasping panicky, "My senior sister has been captured by the¡­De¡­Divine Consort Dongfang Xin?!"

    He had almost said out by the ''depraved'' Divine Consort Dongfang Xin just now in front of so many others.

    When he had reached the balcony to peep behind the white curtains, he was further startled that many of the men below were taking out memory stones to remember this event.

    "What the heck?!"

    Xiao Muhan asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Your reaction tells me that erm, don''t tell me that you and your senior sister has a rtionship?"

    Ji Yuan turned back with an angry look, "Of course not. But she is my senior sister. Darn it¡­"

    Then he lowered his voice to whisper, "If she is in trouble, we ought to help her."

    The reason why he had lowered his voice was because he could only trust Xiao Muhan with his ns.

    The 10 beautiful entertainers and the 4 female attendants behind Ji Yuan did not know why he had suddenly shed to the balcony but they were giggling together, "Men are all the same. They all want to see the most beautiful maiden in the city-state."

    A most peerless and coquettish maiden had stepped from behind the stage now, dressed in a short spirit strap that convenient covered her secret areas but otherwise, not covering anything else.

    She was smiling alluring and her smiles were so divine that many of the men below the stage were all gasping at her peerless beauty.

    She had literally lit up the ce with the glow of her peerless looks and smiles at the same time.

    Many of the men were shing out their memory stones to record what they were seeing.

    Ji Yuan saw the ck ring that was on her and he was gasping with great shock, "She is not a puppet. She is really my senior sister¡­"

    Just as he was about to jump down from the balcony, Xiao Muhan had patted him on his back to whisper. "Calm down first. What if this is an ambush by Divine Consort Dongfang Xin? You know that she is watching too. Why don''t we observe just a little more first?"

    Ji Yuan was trembling; even though he did not really have a romantic rtionship with his senior sister but this was his SENIOR SISTER and no one shall get away from GREENING him!

    Xiang Li said: Big Brother, your definition of greening is too broad but I agree that you are being greened. So¡­

    But Ji Yuan did not hear Xiang Li; it was because he was too focused on the stage where the Smiling Divine Maiden was.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now giggling coquettishly as she seemingly looked at everyone as she pulled everyone into the astonishing delights of her beautiful loveliness and also the mesmerizing charms of her alluring body.

    She alone, upset the concept of beauty and makes all the other maidens in the hall to feel colorless; Her shyness and lovely coquettish demeanor simply had no equal.

    Many of the men were hardened when they saw her and their eyes were now beaming with lust.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now walking around the stage slowly and she was posing in various coquettish looking postures in front of everyone.

    Ji Yuan felt dizzy; it was because he had never seen the butts of the Smiling Divine Maiden before nor did he ever see her in such a revealing manner. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Even with his willpower, he was alsopletely mesmerized by the scene¡­

    Many of the men were gasping aloud.

    "She is indeed the city-state most beautiful maiden¡­"

    "I want to copte with her¡­"

    "I must win the bidter¡­"

    "She is a goddess among the maidens¡­"

    "I want to take her as my consort¡­"

    "I am going to im her for myself¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was now kneeling on the stage but parting her legs coquettishly and she was fingering with her thin bosom straps while winking at the crowd.

    All the men were gasping as they tried to look beyond the scant covering between her legs¡­

    And even the maidens in the hall could not help but gasped at the mesmerizing charm that she could exert on both men and maidens alike.

    This was however too much for Ji Yuan to bear and it was like greening him in public.

    He pushed Xiao Muhan aside and he had jumped down from the balcony with an angry great shout, "Senior Sister, your Junior Brother Ji Yuan is here to save you from the depravities of this ce!"

    And when he hadnded, he had immediately shed to the stage!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled when she saw him, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing here?"

    Ji Yuan said angrily as he caught hold of her wrist, "Senior sister, I am here to save you of course!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped weakly, "I don''t need you to save me. I''m on a trial here¡­"

    Ji Yuan said angrily, "Trial or no trial, you areing with me today!"

    Many of the men were now angry with Ji Yuan as they shouted, "Get down the stage! You are ruining our show!"

    All of a sudden another most astonishing beautiful maiden had jumped down from the balcony to the stage and with a swing of her fingers, she had separated Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    And she was saying coldly, "No one shall be allowed to ruin my show, in my ce!"

    Ji Yuan could not believe the profound strength that had suddenly been released to knock him back and he was now staring angrily at this neer.

    But his angry looks soon turned into surprise because he had suddenly recognized this beautiful maiden with the boobs that he had desired this morning.

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "This is none of your business. I am here to take my senior sister away. Don''t force me to lift my fingers on you. Go away now!"

    The astonishing beautiful maiden was also startled; it was because she had also recognized this man.

    Did he call himself Ji Yuan just now? So this is his name?

    But she answered coldly instead, "You have dared to be disrespectful to Divine Consort Dongfang Xin? This is my ce and you are not going to leave this ce today."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes and he looked startled, "You are Divine Consort Dongfang Xin?"

    Dongfang Xin had lifted her fingers in a gesture and immediately, 4 spirit talismans had shed and exploded its profound energies upon Ji Yuan, knocking him back and there was also a powerful spirit animus in the form of a clock that surrounded her.

    "Indeed, I am Dongfang Xin."

    Ji Yuan was startled by the profound attack and he was gasping, "You can use 4 spirit talismans at the same time?"

    He had never heard of any celestial using more than 2 spirit talismans at the same time and thest time he had fought against one was against the two great saints of the Evil Cultivation Pce and he had a hard time.

    And this Divine Consort Dongfang Xin did not seem to be using a physical spirit talisman and instead she had formed it from her profound animus instead.

    This makes it even harder for Ji Yuan to gauge her cultivation strength and the type of spirit profound attacks that she would be capable of¡­

    Actually, Dongfang Xin was also looking a little startled; it was because her sharpened spirit divine sense had told her that only 1 of her 4 spirit talismans had actually hit him and he had used the first exploding spirit talisman to detonate the other 3 spirit talismans. Also he had purposely knocked himself back to avoid the other profound detonations. His reflexes were really quick¡­

    Author Note:

    1. Yea, I did mention that the Smiling Divine Maiden will be in this story arc, like 50 chapters ago:X

 Chapter 743 Battle Of The 4 Divine Consorts (1)

    ?

    Dongfang Xin was indeed startled when she had once again saw Ji Yuan again; it was because he had left asting impression in her mind and she was wondering if she could see him once again.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was a little more confused.

    It was because he was naturally pleased to see this little beauty with the desirable figure again but he was more in shock that she was actually Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and she was not weak.

    The worst thing was, he had remembered how he had teased her this morning and now he was actually messing up her show; he had seeded in offending Divine Consort Dongfang Xin twice over today.

    The first time was naturally an unwittingly act.

    But this second time, he had to rescue his senior sister from Divine Consort Dongfang Xin!

    The heck and hell with his trial''s trust points with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin now!

    He did not care for his trust points anymore because he could not stand his senior sister getting humiliated in front of him by these depraved men!

    So, he fiercely said to Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, "I count to 3. If you don''t get out of my way then I am going to draw my swords!"

    Even if his opponent was a divine consort and this was a trial for him, he did not care for it anymore!

    The men below were so startled by the fierce auras from Ji Yuan and Dongfang Xin that they were all hastily retreating to the end of the hall; most of them actually have a low cultivation base and they were all awestruck that a man like Ji Yuan could dare to oppose a divine consort.

    One must know that the spiritas men in the Spirit Divine Realm must pay 10 times the cultivation resources to cultivate and are also deny an opportunity for higher cultivation.

    So, the rich men here are mostly the scions of the rich and powerful female spiritas and not because they are really wealthy themselves.

    These men also had no idea on the existence of the male celestials as this was a closely guarded secret of the divine consorts of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad; the divine consorts had no wish to reveal that their spirit race, mainly their divine consorts had been screwed by the heartless male celestials for so many thousands of years.

    One of the men could not resist a quiet support for Ji Yuan, "Now that is a manly spiritas¡­"

    Another man said, "I didn''t think there is a courageous man that can stand up to the tyranny of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin¡­"

    "I have heard that there is a man that dare to make Divine Consort Dongfang Xin into his maiden. Is he the same man?"

    "This is going to be a fight between the strongest man and the strongest maiden¡­"

    Another man awkwardly said, "Enough of these heresy talks! Surely none of you want to be associated as a rebel, right? Or there is a rebel among you?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had heard Ji Yuan threatening Divine Consort Xin with a count of 3 and she had immediately stepped forward to say, "Ji Yuan, you are ruining my day. Please leave immediately if you still think of me as your senior sister."

    Dongfang Xin asked the Smiling Divine Maiden with a curious look, "This Ji Yuan is your junior brother?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded with a soft sigh, "He is a little imprudent. Please forgive him for this."

    Ji Yuan was shocked that the Smiling Divine Maiden had asked him to leave, "Senior sister, are they threatening you? You can tell me. No matter how menace they are, I will surely take you away!"

    Then he stared at the dozens of female followers that had surrounded the stage and they had all readied a spirit talisman in front of them with their hand gesture. "With the two of us, I am sure that we can escape from their blockade¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden returned a faint smile before she heaved a soft sigh, "Divine Consort Dongfang Xin isn''t threatening me. You think too much. Now leave immediately before it is toote."

    Ji Yuan smiled most bitterly, "Senior sister, did she happen to have a copy of your nude imageries? Tell me. I shall make her cough it back¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly raised several profound sword energies and had exploded it in front of Ji Yuan, interrupting him.

    She said softly, "This is but a warning. Now leave. I am willingly with Divine Consort Dongfang Xin here."

    Ji Yuan was startled that his senior sister had almost attacked him with her profound sword energies and he was blinking his eyes with shock.

    Then he had no choice but to use his ultimate trump card to get her back.

    So he said with great exasperation, "Senior sister, if you still don''te with me then I am afraid I would have to tell your FATHER and my OLD MAN about this. I am sure that he won''t be too pleased with this naughty daughter of his."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    Dongfang Xin had suddenly said as she looked at Ji Yuan, "I am afraid that you can''t leave tonight."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped, "But divine consort¡­"

    Dongfang Xin interrupted her with a nonchnt look, "He has to stay here to be my champion¡­"

    "I am afraid that he can''t." A sweet voice had suddenly interrupted Dongfang Xin and everyone looked up to the direction of this sweet voice and was startled to see that it was actually Divine Consort Tang Manni and her female followers.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said coldly as she walked to the stage, "Master Ji Yuan is my champion. Therefore, I can''t let you have him¡­"

    "Divine Consort Tang Manni, I am afraid that I can''t let you have him either." A third divine consort had suddenly entered the hall with her female followers and she was Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun winked in the direction of Ji Yuan and smiled, "This Master Yuan Beluga is my man. Does it make more sense for him to be given to me instead?"

    She was actually quite upset with Yuan Beluga this morning but after pondering for a while that he does have a beautiful face and he was able to make her blush, she had decided to give him a chance to be her man instead. After all, he was now no longer Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er''s man anyway.

    When she had said that, both Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Tang Manni were stunned as they almost said at the same time. "He is your man?!"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni angrily rebuked her, "I am afraid that he isn''t your Yuan Beluga. He is Ji Yuan here."

    Then she swept Ji Yuan a look, "Are you Ji Yuan or Yuan Beluga?"

    Ji Yuan was also stunned; he did not expect to see the beautiful Divine Consort Sun Dingjun again. He had thought that she was stormed off angrily because he had lied about being Little Jie''Er cultivation partner?

    He weakly stammered, "Wait¡­ I can exin¡­ I am also Yuan Beluga but I have nothing to do with Divine Consort Sun Dingjun¡­"

    "Of course, my Yuan Beluga has nothing to do with this slut of a divine consort." Another divine consort had suddenly entered the hall with her female followers and it was Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    She hummed coldly, "Yuan Beluga is my man and he got nothing to do with anyone of you. Let him go immediately!"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was startled as she looked at Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, "Why are you here for?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er hummed coldly, "If I were not here, I won''t know how good a sister you are to me."

    All 4 of the divine consorts had suddenly said at the same time, "Ji Yuan/ Yuan Beluga,e with me!"

    But Ji Yuan was looking at the Smiling Divine Maiden instead, "Senior sister,e with me!"

    Many of men and maidens were looking bewildered at the scene; they had never seen anything like this before and all 4 of the divine consorts were looking coldly at one another.

    One of the rich men, was actually a rebel leader that had followed Ji Yuan here to assassinate him and he was thinking: Don''t tell me that this is all part of the great n by our Great Rebel Leader to make all 4 divine consorts fight among themselves? So when all 4 of the divine consorts were injured, we can pluck them one by one and take over the entire Snowy Pavilion City?

    Xiao Muhan was inplete disbelief as he stared at the scene; when did Ji Yuan knows all 4 of the divine consorts? And what the heck were 2 of the divine consorts iming him as their man?!

    He was muttering, "Brother, you have better watch your trust points carefully. I think your trust points are going to plummet if you are not careful with your choices..."

 Chapter 744 Battle Of The 4 Divine Consorts (2)

    ?

    The 4 divine consorts were now confronting one another and it looked a little messy now with Ji Yuan in the middle while the Smiling Divine Maiden was at a loss of words.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was rebuking Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, "If you don''t want him, I want him. It is as simple as that. Why are you back now? Aren''t you a little too shameless by wanting him back? Didn''t you hear him that day? He says he isn''t your cultivation partner¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Erughed coldly, "He is my broken shoe. I can discard him anytime and I can also retrieve him anytime. It is none of your business in the first ce. Moreover, by our sacred spiritasw, he is already my man¡­"

    "Well, he says he will be my cultivation partner." Divine Consort Sun Dingjun giggled coldly. "Didn''t you hear him this morning as well? Moreover, we are able to get along so blush, blush together."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin interrupted them as she took out a golden coin, "The two of you are too shameless. I have already epted his betrothal gift and therefore he is my man. How dare you fight me over my target?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed coldly, "They may not be able to fight with you but I can. Tonight, I am going to take away Master Ji Yuan away from this ce."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin looked at Divine Consort Tang Manni, "I am afraid that you don''t have the right to do so."

    Divine Consort Tang Mann coldly said, "Heh! He is my sister''s benefactor. Therefore, ording to the ancient spiritas sacredw, it is only right for the sister to help repay the benefactor''s kindness by being his maiden. No one is going to believe in your lies. You just want him to be your champion¡­"

    Ji Yuan was saying to the Smiling Divine Maiden amidst themotions, "Senior sister,e with me immediately!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said nonchntly, "Junior brother, if you let my old man knows about this, I swear that I am going to kill you in this ce."

    Ji Yuan was exasperated, "Which side are you on?!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coldly, "Better than you. Fooling around with so many of these divine consorts in this ce. If you can have some fun, why shouldn''t I? Moreover, what is my rtionship with you then?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Senior sister?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    Below the stage, one of the men whispered to the nearest man, "Erm, is this part of the show? Because it looks so interesting."

    The man next to him pondered for a while before he answered, "You are too young, too simple. Of course, this is staged. There aren''t so many coincidences and these divine consorts must have arranged together for this show. Imagine this. Five most beautiful maidens fighting over a single man. s, this is the dream of all the men here¡­"

    All of a sudden, all 4 divine consorts, Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all fighting with one another; no one knows for sure who had started it first.

    Ji Yuan was trying to pull his senior sister''s hand and the Smiling Divine Maiden was resisting his attempts by fighting back.

    All four of the divine consorts had disyed their spirit aura and their spirit talismans as it rained in all directions.

    All 4 of the divine consorts had also raised a defensive spirit talisman that acted like a pin-point barrier to absorb their opponents'' spirit profound attacks and the stage was soon exploding mightily with their profound energies.

    The female followers of the 4 divine consorts were panicky surrounding the stage and they were all raising a defensive spirit talisman to try to contain the scale of the destruction.

    Ji Yuan almost fainted on the spot with disbelief as he disyed his immortal scabbard to block all the iing spirit talismans that kept raining upon him and exploding mightily on him; if he was not a great saint then these spirit profound energies would have quickly teared him apart!

    The reason why he was in disbelief was because even though the divine consorts were attacking each other but he was standing in their midst and he was bearing the blunt of their attacks, all this while that they were shouting at each other not to attack him.

    "How dare you attack Ji Yuan?"

    "You actually hit my Yuan Beluga?"

    "I saw you sting him!"

    "No, I saw you st his back!"

    "You are his senior sister? How dare you attack Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan was only focused on grabbing his senior sister but he ended up being attacked on 5 different fronts.

    Dozens of spirit talismans began to explode at the same time and poor Ji Yuan became the target their rages.

    Before he knows it, all his profound animus had been sapped by the dozens of profound explosions that were around him and he had fallen t on the floor.

    For the very first time, as Ji Yuan fell down t on the ground, he felt totally defeated; he had barely taken out his immortal scabbard but before he could unsheathe his divine swords, he had been K.O.

    It was also because he had never been in a situation where he got trapped by 5 maidens and was attacked point-nk by 5 of them at the same time, rendering his evasionpletely useless.

    The worst thing was, he had no idea what was happening around him because he was trying to persuade his senior sister to escape with him.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    All 5 maidens were gasping with shock when they had K.O. Ji Yuan¡­

    "He is dead?"

    "Looks like this¡­"

    "Did we kill him?"

    "Why did you attack him for?"

    "I didn''t attack him. You did¡­"

    "I havee to save him from you¡­"

    "No, I havee to save him FROM YOU instead¡­"

    "He is a great saint, right? So, he can''t die like this. As long as he got a single vital breath, he won''t die and moreover his golden body looks intact too."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked guilty as she started to shake Ji Yuan as she squatted down to examine him, "Junior brother, you are alright? I am truly sorry¡­"

    Ji Yuan moaned with great pain as he tried to move his body but he could only open his eyes, "Why are all of you¡­attacking me¡­"

    All of a sudden, he could not say a word, because he was suddenly looking between the thighs of the Smiling Divine Maiden and he got a good candy view¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden saw what he was looking and she was flustered; she punched Ji Yuan''s head down with her sword fingers and instantly KO him. "He is my junior brother Ji Yuan. I hope that no one disagrees with me for taking him away tonight, am I right?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was gasping softly, "I don''t mind but do you have to hit him so hard? What if he got brain damage or something?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni folded her arms as she stolen a nce at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, "I don''t mind either. Anyway, this celestial here is Ji Yuan. I did warn all of you to be wary of him, right?"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled weakly as she mounted a weak protest, "Jie''Er says his name is Yuan Beluga¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was looking flustered, "Yea. How did I know that his name is Ji Yuan and not Yuan Beluga?"

    Dongfang Xin took a weak smile at the fallen Ji Yuan, "Since we are all here today, why don''t we go up to my personal room to have a drink instead?"

    The other 3 divine consorts were all slowly nodding¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked curiously, "The 4 of you are friends?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni smiled weakly as she looked at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, "Not exactly. We are more like rivals. But I believe that we need to have a long chat tonight."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also smiling weakly, "For example, we have to decide the ownership of Ji Yuan tonight."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was giggling, "That''s right."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun took ast look at the fallen Ji Yuan, "This beautiful man is mine for sure."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er immediately returned an annoyed look.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed coldly, "Master Ji Yuan is a guest of my Sister Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei. I am not going to give him up to anyone."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "We shall see if we want to chat or fightter."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    By now, Xiao Muhan had also jumped down from the balcony above and he was shouting from behind the arrays of female maidens that were blocking the stage, "Erm, I am a friend of Ji Yuan. Haha¡­ maybe you would like to fight over me instead? I am more easy going than Ji Yuan here¡­ Maiden Han Muyuan, when did you be a divine consort? Haha¡­ and isn''t this Maiden Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden too? It is me, Xiao Muhan¡­"

 Chapter 745 Ji Yuan And The Smiling Divine Maiden

    ?

    When Ji Yuan opened his eyes, he was aching all over and he saw that he was on a bed. "I didn''t die? Haha¡­ wait... my senior sister..."

    "You have awakened?" A voice full of coyness had greeted him.

    Ji Yuan turned his head and was startled that it was the Smiling Divine Maiden that was greeting him. "Senior sister? You have saved me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden sighed and her golden eyes were softly upon Ji Yuan, "It seems that your divine sense has be dull and you cannot even sense my presence until you''ve seen me."

    Ji Yuan frowned when he tried to recall the incident earlier; he remembered that he was only trying to pull his senior sister away but a fight between the 4 divine consorts had suddenly broken out and he was caught in the midst of their fights.

    By the time he had realized that he was their unfortunate target, it was already toote; these 4 divine consorts had the raw power of a great saintess and their spirit talismans had also further empowered their spirit profound attacks.

    He had no idea how many dozens of talismans did he manage to tank before he was knocked out¡­

    Wait a minute¡­

    Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning at the Smiling Divine Maiden when he remembered that she was the one that had knocked him out, "Senior sister, why did you knock me out for?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said with a faint smile, "You! You dare to ask me? Do you have any decent respect for your senior sister?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered why he was being knocked out because he was staring at where he should not be looking. "I was just happening to be looking at that direction¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden interrupted him with a coquettish giggle, "You are lucky that they have been quite merciful on you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You call their profound attacks on me merciful?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded with a wry smile, "You have no idea how powerful a divine consort is, do you? They are spirit cultivators that have vast reserves of spiritual force in their spiritual sea. And they are more powerful than any of the celestial spirit cultivators. While not the same as a defense cultivator but they can easily renew their profound animus to tank your hits."

    Ji Yuan nodded; all the celestial cultivators depend on their profound animus for protection and without their spiritual force in their spiritual seas, they would be weak and unable to muster their profound strength.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden continued with a soft sigh, "And they also have 2 spirit animus as well. Since they are the spirit race, they are also capable of empowering their spirit talismans to a much stronger profound attack. But they did not use on you. So am I not wrong to say that they have been merciful toward you?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Spirit cultivators are too strong and they are naturals. I can barely maintain the profound animus of my demonic cherubim spirit¡­"

    Using his demonic cherubim spirit would consume 25% of Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual seas. This was a lot better now since he had to consume 50% of his inner spiritual sea in the past.

    And he would lose his profound animus spirit if he had lower than 25% spiritual force in his inner spiritual sea.

    He was actually grateful to Ling Feiyue for her Ambrosia Divine Profound Pill, a priceless sixth rank divine pill that could strength the spiritual sea of a cultivator. (See Chapter 203).

    He asked the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Do the divine consorts have any weakness? How do we defeat them then?"

    Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden smiled nonchntly, "For some reasons, they are unable to use any divine swords. Divine swords won''t enhance their spiritual profound strength. So, this may be their main weaknesses."

    Ji Yuan pondered as he said. "So, if we can hit them a few times directly with our most powerful profound attacks, we may be able to kill them?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled as she knocked him down onto the bed, "What are you thinking? Are you thinking of fighting them? For?"

    Ji Yuan got up immediately and he was solemn, "Of course I am doing this to save my senior sister. I don''t care about my trial anymore. As long as I can get senior sister out of here, I am happy enough."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled with a flustered coquettish look, "I think that you are mistaken about something. I am not under any threat by Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and I am helping her willingly."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What? But at the stage you¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden faintly smiled, "I am a champion of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin. I am helping her with the show that you saw earlier so that I can gain Trust Points from her."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You can gain Trust Points in this manner?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden rested her right fingers on his chest as she smiled with some exasperation, "Xiao Muhan had told me just now that the two of you are thinking of hitting off with the divine consorts for your Trust Points, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly but he did not say anything; it was because he did not want to be hit by his extraordinary beautiful senior sister for saying the wrong words.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden continued with an alluring smile and her alluring golden eyes were moving mesmerzing on Ji Yuan, "And the two of you are thinking that this is a celestial man''s paradise and the celestial maidens should just use their golden talismans to quit this trial, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan could not resist a weak chuckle, "Hahaha¡­ No?"

    The Smiling Divine Maidenughed softly and she was holding her belly, "Did the two of you mistaken Trust Points for ''Seduction Points'' or ''Banging Points'' instead?"

    Ji Yuan began to cover his face with extreme awkwardness.

    The Smiling Divine Maidenughed softly, "The trial is impartial. How is it possible for it to favor one gender over the other? It seems that almost all the celestial men thates to this trial is all thinking the same thing. So, do you know why I am helping Divine Consort Dongfang Xin now?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly but he quickly asked, "You have met the other celestials?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded with a faint smile, "There is this Xi Huangdi that is also champion of Dongfang Xin as well."

    Ji Yuan immediately growled and he looked unhappy, "What?! Senior sister, you are in the same camp as that rascal Xi Huangdi?!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded, "I have met Dongfang Xin first. And that is why I am in her camp."

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Quit her camp. I just don''t like that Xi Huangdi. He looks like an evil cultivator for sure."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden took a look at Ji Yuan before she slowly disyed a faint smile, "Or are you jealous? You are afraid that I may fall in love with him? Well, it is about time that I look for myself a cultivation partner. And he looks just like a fine cultivator to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He decided to use his trump card now to threaten her; In this aspect, he was never a gentleman.

    "If senior sister even talks to him then I am afraid that I have to tell your father about your bad deeds today."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, you! This is just a show and moreover, all the maidens here dressed like this in this ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her as he suddenly caught hold of her slender hands and he said with great awkwardness, "But we are celestial cultivators. And moreover, you¡­ belong to me. Have you forgotten that your father has erm... betrothed you to me? So you are my consort-to-be. So I can''t have you running about with other man..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden pulled her hands from him and she was smiling coyly, "I am not falling for your tricks like my two sisters, Zhi Jiugong and Lu Jiangsu. My old man has identally let it slip that your ''duel'' over me is just a fake duel. To think that I was so touched by you for a moment."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Hahaha¡­ our duel is the only way out. Your father doesn''t want to kill you and I really want to help you so we fake our duel. But I really like you and your 2 protege sisters as well so... isn''t this the reason why you are staying behind in the Celestial Realm too?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hastily interrupted with an alluring smile, "Because my two protege sisters are staying in the Celestial Realm because of you. They are my sisters for thousands of years and I am too used to being with them. Also, I have finally reconciled with my father and I also have a half-sister Yang Mi. Hmm, you want the older and younger sister to both serve you as well? Fat hope!"

    Ji Yuan had already reached out his hand to catch hold of his senior sister but she had danced away to the door.

    He said weakly, "Senior sister, I really like you and you are my consort-to-be..."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said with a faint but alluring smile, "When you are unconsciousness, I''ve heard you calling out Jiajia so many times. But you did not even mention any of us. Who you really like is actually this maiden by the name of Jiajia."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Did I really call out Jiajia several times?"

    It was true that deep down, he had been extremely anxious about how Jiajia was faring outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; he keeps having a bad brooding that something really bad has happened to his Jiajia and he is only too eager to return to her side. Moreover he feels that he had grown stronger now and he should be of some help to her, right?

    This bad brooding had taken root in his heart ever since he had experienced the heart breaking pain between the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess.

    But he had quickly triedughed it off; Jiajia and I are a couple, unlike the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess. What happens to them, will never happens to us.

    While he had been pondering, the Smiling Divine Maiden smiled alluringly out of reach from him, "By the way, I have some bad news for you."

    Ji Yuan was already smiling bitterly when he got rejected just like this but he asked, "What is it? You want to tell me that you do not like me now?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled wryly, "Good try but it is not. I want to tell you that your brother Xiao Muhan is now a champion of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What the heck? He has be a champion?! What exactly is a champion?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden sighed softly, "You have better curry the favor of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun first if you have the time. That is, if you want to save your friend Xiao Muhan. In this ce, the celestials are given a choice of being a champion for the divine consorts. Only a champion is allowed to take care in the uing great games of the spiritas tower. This event shall take ce in 30 days."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "So Xiao Muhan has chosen to be a champion of the Divine Consort Sun Dingjun?"

    He was actually thinking: He has decided to curry the favor of that beautiful Divine Consort Sun Dingjun instead?

    She answered, "He is a male celestial. Therefore, he did not have a choice in this and he is being forced to be a champion for Divine Consort Sun Dingjun. He is an idiot for advertising his presence in front of the 4 divine consorts."

    JI Yuan muttered weakly, "I am just surprised that Divine Consort Tang Manni did not want him¡­ wait a minute. Since he is being forced, so you must be forced too, am I right? So, you are not willing to be a champion of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled alluringly, "Only the male celestials will be forced. The female celestials are given a choice. This ce is friendly to the maidens and not to the men."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I''ve just thought that senior sister has said that the trial ispletely impartial to the genders¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden said alluringly as she ignored the question that Ji Yuan had just asked, "I have another bad news for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Senior sister, can''t you finish telling me all the bad news at once? You are dumping me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden sighed softly, "I didn''t want to tell you this until the veryst. You have to stay in this room until 1 of the 4 divine consorts has imed you as their champion. At least they have amon consensus on this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    With that the Smiling Divine Maiden had returned an alluring smile at him before she disyed an alluring sway as she exited the room.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes; his senior sister did not even allow him to touch her¡­

    He was already searching his spatial storage for any replenishing profound pills that he could find and he was frowning unhappily to himself: No one greens me. Senior sister is my consort-to-be and I have the support of her father. It doesn''t matter what she says. This Xi Huangdi is going to be dead...

    Xiang Li muttered: Big Brother, can you hear me? Ipletely agree with you that no one shall green you. Maiden Chu Lixue is ours for sure...

    She was getting a little bleary in her eyes because Ji Yuan had been ignoring her for some time.

    But the Smiling Divine Maiden was actually thinking when she had left: I am sorry junior brother but this is a trial. You ought to have focus your affections on the divine consorts and not on me. Ji Yuan, I do love you and I am curious to meet this Jiajia of yours.

    The Divine Smiling Divine had just left the room where Ji Yuan was and she was quite amused to see that there were twenty female followers that belonged to the 4 divine consorts that were actually guarding outside.

    Among these 20 female followers, there were quite a number of Spirit Concubines and Fairy Concubines too.

    It was because all 4 of the divine consorts did not want Ji Yuan to escape until they can determine ownership of Ji Yuan.

    Only the Smiling Divine Maiden was given the permission to take care of Ji Yuan while he was knocked off.

    She was quite amused that these 4 divine consorts were fighting over Ji Yuan but she was also quite anxious about their true intentions for wanting to pick a champion. ''

    This was something that Divine Consort Dongfang Xin did not want to reveal to her and she had intentional revealed what she had known about the great games of the spiritas tower to Ji Yuan.

    She had actually gathered from Xiao Muhan on some of their happenings in the past few days and learnt that they were staying at the tavern where Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was.

    It was also then that she had learnt from Dongfang Xin that Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had once lost a fight with the Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei in the street and she had purposely wanted to make Xiao Muhan her champion just to provoke Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei.

    She had also learnt that Divine Consort Tang Manni was actually the sister to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and that she did not stop Divine Consort Sun Dingjun from taking away Xiao Muhan.

    "Why didn''t she? Xiao Muhan ims that he is a personal friend of this Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­"

    She did not know that Divine Consort Tang Manni purposely imed not to know Xiao Muhan just because she had wanted to spite Ji Yuan, whom she was still angry with.

    "How did Ji Yuan get to know all 4 of these divine consorts without being capture by them as their champion?"

    Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a fellow celestial that had suddenly walked to her and he was Xi Huangdi.

    He was smiling while looking lecherously at her, inspecting every inch of her peerless body with his lustful golden eyes. "Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, I have been waiting for you."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a curious look, "Oh?"

    Xi Huangdi smiled, "I am d that you are alright. Do you know that I have wanted toe out and to kill this pestering Ji Yuan for you. But I can''t show up unless our Divine Consort Dongfang Xin wills it. Why are you so concern about this pathetic rascal?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden hummed coldly, "We are friends. Naturally, I should show my concern for him."

    Xi Huangdi said with a burning hatred for Ji Yuan, "I know but I am concerned for you. He isn''t a good man for sure. You ought to be careful about this man. Moreover, he has so many great beauties around him too. Such a lecherous and wicked man doesn''t deserve to have you¡­"

    At that time when he had first met Ji Yuan outside the trial portal, he saw that Ji Yuan was with a group of veiled maidens and they were all astonishing beautiful maidens even with their veils.

    He had also remembered their profound signatures and that was why he knows that the Smiling Divine Maiden was with Ji Yuan.

    But he had never thought that the Smiling Divine Maiden was actually such a peerless great beauty without her veil.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Moreover, she was now without her celestial silk robe and she was dressed in a most revealing manner that could make the blood of any man boiled with the great fire of lust.

    In fact, Xi Huangdi had wanted to pin her down immediately and to force himself on her for he was totally captivated by her and he wanted to make her into his harlot so that he could have fun with her every day.

    The only thing that was holding him back was that this ce was too crowded with the female followers of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and also because the Smiling Divine Maiden was a peaked great saintess.

    But he was determined to find his chance and he was really hunger to make her into his harlot.

    Not just her but Dongfang Xin too, who had treated him like her dog. He longed for the day when she would be naked in front of him and begging to copte with him.

    As he was saying to her, his golden eyes were also looking lustfully at her bared bosoms, her alluring torso and her slender white jaded legs.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled alluringly, "I know what to do. There is no need for you to tell me what to do¡­"

    And she had already started to walk away.

    But Xi Huangdi quickly moved in her way to say, "I can take care of you. I am also a powerful great saint in my celestial fraternity. Come with me. Together, we can ovee the rest of the trials together. I can also give you the cultivation profound treasures that you need to cultivate. Also, since we are both champions of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin now, it is good that we form a secret alliance together."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden faintly smiled¡­

    Xi Huangdi had suddenly caught a glimmer of hope and he was smiling with great lust; to have such a peerless maiden as his cultivation partner is the best thing that can happen to him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­

    As soon she had nodded, he would grab her and to strip her down to nothingness. Then he would feast upon her delicious alluring and tempting body, not sparing any inch of her and spraying his yang essence all over her. Then she would bepletely be submissive to him because there were no maidens that could escape from his manly charms.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled alluringly before saying nonchntly, "I am Ji Yuan''s maiden."

    With that, she had walked off and leaving only Xi Huangdi to stare angrily at her exposed butts.

    Xi Huangdi had not expected for her to say that because he could tell that her primeval yin was still intact as he practiced an unorthodx profound skill that could allow his cultivation to grow from plucking the pure primeval yin of the great saintesses.

    He began to clench his fists as he said coldly, "Then I shall make you mine by force. So don''t me me. I have a 6th rank divine profound pill that can render even a great saintess like youatose for a while. I have originally wanted to save it for that bitch Dongfang Xin but don''t me me for using it on you now."

 Chapter 747 Deciding The Ownership Of Ji Yuan

    ?

    All 4 divine consorts were now at their drinking table.

    And they were looking quite coldly at one another.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was smiling, "It has been such a long time since we have all sat down together for a drink."

    "Don''t give me that crap about thest time," Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed coldly. "Thest time was about our territory disputes and it was not even a friendly one."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled softly, "And I got the smallest territory. This isn''t right¡­"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin pointed at her with a soft rebuke, "Be quiet, Divine Consort Jie''Er. You have the least say in this ce."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er: ¡­

    "Oh yes?" Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er retorted loudly. "Let''s be straight about this. Ji Yuan is my cultivation partner and I have also plenty of witnesses. He is mine."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun chuckled, "Sister Jie''Er, I have also plenty of witnesses that are around that can prove that Ji Yuan isn''t your cultivation partner and instead, he is actually interested in me."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Erughed coldly as she mmed her hand loudly on the table, "Who is your Sister Jie''Er? I don''t have a backstabbing sister like you. This is called a lover''s quarrel and you have no right to snatch away my man."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, Divine Consort Tang Manni and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin looked a little startled; it was because Divine Consort Jie''Er was the most timid usually and she often back off without a fight as she was too poor to pay for thepensations of her female followers.

    It seemed that this time round, she was really serious about obtaining this Ji Yuan.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was not afraid of this outburst since she was a superior divine consort and only another superior divine consort like Dongfang Xin was able to contest with her.

    That was why the two weaker divine consorts Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er had formed a sisterhood against Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and her.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled, "I can offer each one of you a champion that is at the saint level each in exchange for Ji Yuan. What do you think? In additional, I can give 1000 jade stones each to all of you if you are willng to back off from your ims."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun said coldly, "This is indeed generous but no thanks."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled at Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, "But I am sure that my Sister Divine Consort Jie''Er will be interested in my proposal, right?"

    She had only got to eliminate them 1 by 1, for the right price of course.

    But to her astonishment, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er hummed coldly. "No, thanks. Not for any riches."

    This remark hadpletely caught Divine Consort Dongfang Xin by surprise.

    And she was not the only ones that were looking startled.

    Even Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Tang Manni were looking startled. It was because Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was a famous gold digger and she could be easily bribed in the past.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin could not believe her ears and she raised her fingers, "5000 Jade stones. That is my limit. Jie''Er, this is yourst chance."

    She was looking a little irritated and she had even dropped addressing her as a divine consort.

    5000 Jade stones was indeed a lot and it was more money than Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had ever seen in her entire life.

    But she knew that Ji Yuan was far richer than this and she did her maths already.

    So she said firmly, "It is pointless to try to bribe me. No amount of money can move me¡­"

    "She is lying." Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had suddenly interrupted her with a beautiful soft chuckle. "This Ji Yuan is a multi-billionaire. Look at her new spirit outfit. I bet that this is from him, right?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was suddenly flustered, "So what if it is? He is my man and it is perfectly normal for him to buy spirit outfits for me, right?"

    Dongfang Xin and Tang Manni were both gasping with shock when they had heard that Ji Yuan had brought Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er her profound spirit outfit and it looked really expensive.

    Tang Manni was thinking: Multi-billionaire? Howe I didn''t know this Ji Yuan is so rich?

    She felt really upset with him because he was obviously trying to y with the feelings of these divine consorts.

    The reason why she did not want to tell Ji Yuan that she was a divine consort was because she wanted his real sentiments and not because of who she was. She did not want him to court her just because she was his trial objective and then he would betray her after 70 days.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also thinking: There is a really rich patron tonight. Don''t tell me it is him? No wonder he can afford to throw me a gold coin for free¡­

    Tang Manni said aloud, "I say it again. Ji Yuan is my guest and I have known him since the very start. You should all know our sacred spiritasws, right? I have the first right to im Ji Yuan for my own."

    Dongfang Xin once again shed her gold coin, "Did you happen to forget about our other sacred spiritasw? I am his maiden now and I have plenty of witnesses¡­."

    "No, you don''t!" Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly interrupted. "I am not sharing my man with anyone!"

    These 4 divine consorts were actually fighting over Ji Yuan to be their cultivation partner and not because they wanted him to be their champion.

    It was something that the Smiling Divine Maiden had missed as she was trying to shake herself off from Ji Yuan.

    And it was also the main reason why the 4 divine consorts had decided to settle this privately as they did not want to lose their faces in front of their female followers that they were in fact, fighting over a man.

    One must know that in the Spirit Divine Realm, the maidens here outnumber the men 20:1 and a beautiful man like Ji Yuan is like gold to them.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was actually gleeful that the two superior divine consorts Dongfang Xin and Tang Mani were at a loss tonight and that they would all be fighting over a man.

    Since she had the weakest im, she began to giggle softly. "You know. It is perfectly alright for a man to have a harem, especially the desirable ones. But all of you are divine consorts and naturally you are not going to share a man or this would be awkward to your faces in front of your followers. But I have a solution for all of you¡­"

    The other 3 divine consorts had slowly turned in her direction to hear what she had to say.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun giggled, "It doesn''t need to be a hard decision. Why don''t we let Ji Yuan chooses which one of us should he belongs to and we settle his ownership for good?"

    All 3 of the divine consorts were quiet for a while; it was because they had no confidence that Ji Yuan would actually pick them¡­

    And they did not even know whagt was Ji Yuan''s rtionship so far with the other divine consorts as well¡­

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun asked again, "Well?"

    She waited for a while before she giggled again, "Silence means consent. I take this as a yes. So, why don''t we summon Ji Yuan now and ask him? He should be awakened now. If not, I have a profound pill here that may be useful to wake him up."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er said coldly, "Don''t feed him weird stuff. Let''s check if he is awakened and we shall ask him which 1 of us, would he choose to be with."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were both nodding their heads slowly; although this was not the best n but this was a fair n.

 Chapter 748 Which Of The Divine Consorts Will Ji Yuan Choose?

    ?

    Once the 4 divine consorts had decided on Ji Yuan''s fate, they had quickly sent their female followers to enquiry about Ji Yuan and found out that he had awakened.

    Wasting no time, they had quickly asked their female followers to ''escort'' Ji Yuan to them.

    When Ji Yuan was brought to them, the 4 divine consorts had quickly dismissed their female followers and they were looking a little awkward.

    Ji Yuan was not exactly startled when he saw the 4 extremely beautiful divine consorts together but he was startled to see the sight of these 4 extremely beautiful maidens as they stood together and it was like a scene from his dreams; the enticing charm of the 4 divine consorts together was enough to drive most men crazy with lust.

    He had not previously noticed this as he was only paying attention to the Smiling Divine Maiden and trying to urge her to leave with him.

    Even when the other divine consorts were trying to im ''him'', he was still arguing with his senior sister.

    That was because none of the 4 divine consorts were actually talking to him at that time.

    And when their arguments turned ugly, they began to attack one another.

    Unfortunately, Ji Yuan happened to be in the middle and he had no idea why he was being ''attacked'' for no reason. There was no other reason except that he was simply caught in their crossfires.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was the first to speak and she was looking a little sheepish, "Yuan Beluga¡­ or should I call you Ji Yuan, how are your injuries?"

    Ji Yuan answered bitterly, "Thanks to all of you here, I am still ''alive'' now. Or should I give thanks to my new spirit toga that I am able to survive all your profound attacks."

    Almost at the same time, all 4 divine consorts said at the same time as they pointed at one another. "I didn''t attack him. You did!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Actually, you all did. You really think my divine sense did not know which direction that I was being attacked from?

    Divine Consort Tang Manni turned the other way even though she was saying to Ji Yuan now, "Anyway, I''m sorry. We have asked you here because you can only choose one of us to go with. Whatever your choice is, we won''t interfere and we will respect your decision."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled warmly, "Yuan Beluga¡­ I mean Ji Yuan. Do you remember how blush I am when I am talking to you? And you are also blushing too. Heehee. Come with me and I''ll promise you that we can do plenty of blush, blush things together."

    Almost immediately, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er interrupted unhappily. "Slut, you are too shameless!"

    At the same time, Divine Consort Tang Manni and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin were also angrily shouting in the direction of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "You are too shameless!"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er said mncholy to Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, have you forgotten your Little Jie''Er already? Or are you upset with me? Maybe you don''t know our sacred spiritasws but it is alright. We are destined to be cultivation partner together. Come with me, alright?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin showed Ji Yuan the gold coin that he had tossed to her and she was saying sweetly, "Do you remember this? By our sacred spiritasw; if I have epted your gold coin then in the future we are a pair of cultivation partner. Don''t you want to dual cultivate with me? I am a superior divine consort and you have nothing to lose foring with me. In fact, you can be with your senior sister at the same time."

    Ji Yuan had to admit that this Divine Consort Xin was really a most gorgeous maiden with a devil body and that was why he had groped her when she had suddenly attacked him.

    Indeed, choosing Divine Consort Dongfang Xin seemed like a better choice and he can be with his senior sister again. What was more, he could also prevent himself from being green by Xi Huangdi or anyone else.

    Ji Yuan turned to ask Divine Consort Tang Manni, "What about you? Why should Ie with you? Is there anything for me?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni bit her lips and she looked upset, "Hmph! I am only here to save you because you are a guest of my sister¡­"

    She paused for a while but she could not find the heart to continue; it was because she had actually wanted to say that she cannot be bothered toe and save him. She was upset because Ji Yuan made it sounds like he was interested to hear her conditions to have him and this upset her.

    All the talks about Ji Yuan being her sister''s benefactor was also thrown to the back of her head.

    This Ji Yuan was too infuriating and he seemed interested in Divine Consort Dongfang Xin because his eyes were constantly looking at her boobs.

    This was naturally not lost on Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun as well.

    Ji Yuan asked all of them with a pondering look, "From what I can gather, all of you here seem to know that I am a celestial? How did you know that?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er quietly pointed at the ck ring that was on Ji Yuan, "You all have the same ck trial ring on you. That is how we know that you are a celestial cultivator from the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan began to smile most bitterly; this was obvious to him because he was a celestial. He had never thought that the divine consorts were able to know the secrets of the celestials. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said quietly, "She is right. I have already known that you are a celestial since day 1 from your ck ring. I have not only known that you are a celestial and you are also trying to obtain 100 Trust Points from us toplete your trial."

    Ji Yuan was truly stunned, "Even the details of our trial?! How the heck did you know?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni answered slowly, "1000 years ago, a celestial leaked it to us. However, this information is only known to just a few of us in the Spirit Divine Realm as it will create a panic. It is only then did we know that we have been infiltrated by the high level celestials for thousands of years and our divine consorts had been yed by them¡­"

    She inhaled deeply before continuing, "From that point onward, we have known of the existence of celestials and their trial details. Therefore every 500 years, we will take precautions against the celestials."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "That traitorous celestial. I wanna kill him¡­"

    "That won''t be necessary." Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had suddenly said with great mncholy. "That celestial is my father and he had since died as a champion in the great games of the Spiritas Tower to redeem himself of his great sins."

    Ji Yuan was stunned: Divine Consort Dongfang Xin is a half-celestial?!

    Then she icily said, "But don''t be misunderstood. My father is an unsung hero in the Spirit Divine Realm and he is just trying to redeem the sins of the celestials. Without my father, the despicable celestials will be running amok every 500 years and goodness know how many of the female spiritas will be their victims. Most of the male celestials are only fit to be my dogs in the spiritas tower."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin quickly said, "But you are different. I don''t intend to send you to the great games of the spiritas tower."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes: I am a despicable celestial?

    Xiang Li who had been listening, began to giggle: Of course not, Big Brother. Prove them all wrong!

    Right, Xiang Li.

    Ji Yuan immediately raised his hand forward to protest with a straight face, "I am totally different from the other male celestials. In fact, I am not thinking of ying with anyone. Matter of fact, I''ve the intention toe clean about my trial objectives too."

    All 4 of the divine consorts were gasping all of a sudden; it was because they could sense no fluctuations in Ji Yuan''s heart beat and they believed that he was speaking the truth.

    Xiang Li was giggling: My Big Brother''s control heartbeat skill is top notch!

    Ji Yuan had by now mastered a profound skill that was considered useless to most and that was the Control Heartbeat Profound Skill that was part of his Divine Heart Recite which was a divine profound art. There are 3 parts to the Divine Heart Recite; the Absolute Spirits, the Undying Fighting Spirit and Natural Instinct. (See Chapter 56).

    By using the Natural Instinct of his Divine Heart Recite, he was a natural now in controlling his heart beat and not even the divine consorts of the Spirit Divine Realm were able to know that he was lying with a straight face.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was now saying, "Yuan Beluga¡­ Ji Yuan¡­ please make your choice now. I am sure that you will choose a divine consort with the highest Trust Points, right? And that is me, right?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling awkwardly.

    Indeed, even without checking his ck ring, he knew that he had the highest Trust Points with Little Jie''Er and that he got the lowest Trust Points of -250 with Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was smiling, "My trust points with you aren''t too low, am I right? Also, your friend Xiao Muhan is also with me. Look, I am blushing now. Don''t you want to choose me instead?"

    Dongfang Xin gave Ji Yuan a shy look, "Your senior sister is with me. Join me instead."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply¡­

    Then he said slowly, "I have made my choice. I will choose Divine Consort Tang Manni."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni who had turned her head away was startled and she was looking at Ji Yuan with a look of disbelief¡­

    As for the other 3 divine consorts, they were all shocked by Ji Yuan''s decision as they all believed that they all stood a chance¡­

    Xiang Li on the other hand was giggling: I know that Big Brother can''t count but I do like this decision of yours.

    2. Why did Ji Yuan pick Divine Consort Tang Manni instead of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin? See next Chapter!

 Chapter 749 Is My Choice The Right One?

    ?

    Ji Yuan proimed loudly a second time, "I will choose Divine Consort Tang Manni to go with."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was staring at Ji Yuan with disbelief, "You have picked me? You have chosen toe with me, why?"

    Even the 3 other divine consorts were staring at Ji Yuan with disbelief and they were all asking, "Why?!"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun gasped, "You don''t want your friend Xiao Muhan anymore?"

    "How about your senior sister?" Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also asking with a look of disbelief. She was so sure that Ji Yuan would surely pick her because he has someone important in her camp.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was stammering and there were bleary tears in her eyes, "Yuan Beluga¡­ why?!"

    Ji Yuan heaved with a deep sigh, "Don''t get me wrong. You are all really very attractive and beautiful maidens. If I were to choose one of you to dual cultivate with then I would surely unable to make a choice¡­"

    For the very first time, the prideful Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was trembling. "Then why did you pick her? I want to know why."

    Ji Yuan answered gently as he looked at Divine Consort Tang Manni, "That is because she didn''t ask me to be her cultivation partner or her champion. And also, I owe her an apology¡­"

    He had actually wanted to pick Divine Consort Dongfang Xin because he did not want anyone to have any funny ideas on his senior sister. Like Little Princess, these two maidens had an irresistible hold on their onlookers. And he did not want to be green by anyone, especially not Xi Huangdi.

    Also, he wanted to fight alongside his senior sister too.

    But when he had suddenly remembered the tears of Tang Manni when he had paid a visit to her vi and the hurtful p that he had received from her this morning, he found himself picking her against his better judgement.

    In short, he had just made a decision to screw himself¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled by Ji Yuan''s reply and her lips were trembling as she stared at him¡­

    She wanted to tell him that she had forgiven him at this very instant because he had picked her but no words hade forth from her trembling lips.

    It was because she was after all, still a shy maiden with no experience in any romantic rtionships.

    Ji Yuan had turned to look at the three divine Consorts Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Little Jie''Er who were still waiting to hear hisme exnations.

    Naturally, he was not going to tell them the true reasons why he had picked Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    So, he said weakly, "I never have any intention of tricking the 3 of you here. If I have identally broken any of the sacred spiritasws and had caused you a misunderstanding, please do forgive me¡­"

    Then he turned to say to Divine Consort Tang Manni, "I wille with you. It is all thanks to the hospitality of your sister and you that I have got a much easier time in Snowy Pavilion City. I am grateful that you did not force me to be your champion."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was still surprised by Ji Yuan''s choice that she appeared to be stunned and did not know what to say to him¡­

    And also, because she could feel the burning hatred of the other 3 divine consorts on her back as well.

    When Ji Yuan saw that Divine Consort Tang Manni did not say anything and he had no idea if she was upset with him for picking her, he could only turn to say with great awkwardness to the other 3 divine consorts. "This is my final choice."

    Then he turned to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun tough weakly, "If you are not returning my Brother Xiao Muhan to me, I hope that you can at the very least take good care of him for me. Because I won''t forgive you if anything happens to my Brother Xiao Muhan."

    He had also turned to look at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, "The same goes for my senior sister. You have better ensure that she is safe or else I won''t forgive you too."

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily as he waved his hands to mutter aloud, "Farewell then."

    With that he had turned around to leave the room.

    It was only then that Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly sobered up and she had to run after him.

    Now it was only the 3 divine consorts that were left in this room.

    However, the three divine consorts Sun Dingjun, Dongfang Xin and Ding Jie''Er were not upset with Ji Yuan.

    In fact, unknown to Ji Yuan, his trust points with these 3 divine consorts had suddenly increased instead!

    It was because all 3 of the divine consorts were all thinking: He is really different from the other despicable celestials. He did not pick 1 of us to be his cultivation partner nor did he choose the side that can give him the best benefits¡­

    The alluringly eyes of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin were shining and she had decided in her mind: I am going to make you mine. Since you are not picking Divine Consort Tang Manni to be your cultivation partner, this means that I actually have a chance to make you mine. You are superior to these celestial dogs. I must admit that I was too reckless to try to make you mine without trying to understand your character first. But your character is indeed noble. You have rather pick Tang Manni than your senior sister the Smiling Divine Maiden¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was also thinking: Ji Yuan... you are my Beluga and I''m your Beluga-mom. You pick Tang Manni because she didn''t give you any benefits except that she is the first divine consort that you know. But you didn''t say I can''t be your dual partner, am I right? Is this a hint for me? Hm¡­ it is a hint¡­ heehee¡­ I have a chance¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was blinking with disbelief; when Xiao Muhan had said that he is Ji Yuan''s best friend, she had seized the opportunity to order her female followers to capture Xiao Muhan first and to use him as a possible bargaining chip to threaten Ji Yuan.

    Her instincts proved to be urate and this Xiao Muhan had indeed proven to be useful.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But Ji Yuan did not pick her at all.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun felt a little depressed.

    It was because she had fallen out with her good sister Jie''Er over him.

    At first, she was actually not serious about Ji Yuan and she wanted to separate Jie''Er and Ji Yuan because Jie''Er was boasting in front of her that her cultivation partner was a billionaire.

    She was jealous of their rtionships and she had decided to screw them by trying to seduce Ji Yuan. Once she had seeded, she would naturally dump him and then byforting Jie''Erter, "Men are all the same. They will pick the rtionship with the most benefits."

    The reason why she hade to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel tonight was because all the rich men would being to this ce and she suspected that Yuan Beluga or Ji Yuan would also be in this ce.

    She had actually known that Jie''Er would being to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel this very night because she had already bribed one of her female followers.

    So, she had thought of having some fun by screwing this Yuan Beluga once more by pretending to give him another chance.

    To get her sister Jie''Er back, she did not mind being a slut in front of her.

    But tonight, her heart was moved discreetly by Ji Yuan and she had suddenly realized that she likes him too. He was indeed very different from the other lecherous male celestials¡­

    It seemed that she had really misunderstood him this morning and he really did not know anything about any of the sacred spiritasws.

    She was now regretting why she had to be angry with him for picking her to be his cultivation partner this morning; she had really screwed herself this time round¡­

    And she was also thinking: I''m sorry Jie''Er. I am going to be a true slut this time¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan and Divine Consort Tang Manni were walking quietly together as they headed back to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern.

    Walking not far away behind them were 20 of the female followers of Divine Consort Tang Manni and one of them was Spirit Concubine Fay and she was giggling softly to her other sisters at the back.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said quietly with lowered head, "You will surely regreting with me."

    Ji Yuan smiled most bitterly, "Hahaha¡­"

    He really did not know what to say.

    Maybe she would give him another p before leaving. After all, she was only here at the behest of Maiden Flower Ju to ensure that he could go back in one piece to her sister''s tavern.

    At least, this was what she had told him after they had left the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said slowly, "Your trust points with the other divine consorts will probably go even lower because of this choice of yours."

    She was actually feeling a little guilty; it is because she can tell how that he is really close to his senior sister.

    Or maybe he likes her sister Xu Yifei instead? But she is not a divine consort¡­

    Ji Yuan said all of a sudden, "Erm, Maiden Han Muyuan¡­ I mean Divine Consort Tang Manni. Sorry about what I say about you. I hope that you can ept my apologies¡­"

    Xiang Li reminded Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you have to eat shit first. Remember?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni turned to him and disyed a faint smile, "Do I look like someone who is so petty? I''m not."

    Ji Yuan could onlyugh weakly, "Hahaha¡­"

    He resisted saying out aloud: Yes, you are.

 Chapter 750 The Pure Yin Plucking Profound Art (R18)

    ?

    The Heavenly Fragrance Brothel.

    Xi Huangdi was delighted that the entire entourage of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was going to stay in the mansion of the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel for the night instead of going back to the Vi De Spirit Xin, which Divine Consort Dongfang Xin usually prefers.

    It was because he was now filled with hot lust for the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was determined to get her tonight.

    However, for his n to seed first, he needed a conspirator first.

    And he had already found one in the past few days.

    She was Spirit Concubine Su Hong, a female follower of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    This Su Hong had shown a keen interest in him and he knows it.

    In this ce and the Spirit Divine Realm, men are actually a rare resource due to their scarcity and there were many desirable maidens in the city.

    Xi Huangdi may be an orthodox celestial from one of the major orthodox celestial sects in his celestial fraternity but he had actually practiced a forbidden unorthodox dual cultivation profound art called the Pure Yin Plucking Profound Art.

    With this Pure Yin Plucking Profound Art, he was able to know if the pure primeval yin of a maiden was intact with just a nce.

    Now, what is the pure primeval yin of a maiden?

    It actually means their chastity naturally.

    Xi Huangdi was extremely interested in plucking the pure yin of the maidens and in this ce, he had never seen so many maidens with their pure yin still intact.

    This was a surprise to him when they are all cultivators with an extremely long life.

    This ce is simply a man''s paradise.

    He was even more surprised that the Smiling Divine Maiden''s pure yin is also still intact and he is even more eager to pluck her.

    From the very first day that he had seen her, he had wanted to pluck her. Just thinking about her, he was already imaging her breasts in his hands now and he was sucking from her tits while banging furiously into her...

    She was someone that he could not get tired of screwing and she was too perfect in too many ways. Maybe he may even choose her as his permanent depraved ve so that he could y with her whole day long.

    But not just the Smiling Divine Maiden, his targets included Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and many of her female followers as well.

    This would in turn increased his cultivation strength and make him invincible among all the great saints and he could even kill an immortal with this cheat.

    This Pure Yin Plucking Profound Art requires him to take away the pure yin of 66 maidens that is a golden celestial of the 5th cultivation realm, 33 maidens that is a golden celestial of the 6th cultivation realm, 11 maidens of the saintess 7th cultivation realm and 3 great saintess or equivalent.

    By absorbing their pure yin, he would also gain 1/10 of their spiritual seas.

    And he had only 2 great saintesses left to go before he couldplete this heaven-defying profound art.

    The first great saintess to fall victim to him was naturally his celestial teacher and also prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress.

    He was now even thinking that he may even be the new Divine Lord of this ce and the entire city of maidens were all his submissive depraved ves. Then he would go on to conquar the entire city-states and forced all the other divine consorts to be his depraved ves. Soon he would be the Supreme Divine Lord of the entire Spirit Divine Realm...

    His first target, however was the Spirit Concubine Su Hong.

    Now he was secretly meeting Spirit Concubine Su Hong and he had already formted his n. First, he would pluck her and then coerced her into secretly giving the Smiling Divine Maiden his secret 6th rank profound pill that could even knock out a great saintess.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was now asking him curiously, "Champion Xi Huangdi, it is sote now. You want to see me?"

    Xi Huangdi smiled as he cornered her, "You are really beautiful. In fact, you are the most beautiful maiden in my heart in this ce."

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was flustered, "Oh really? But there are so many others in this ce. Even my divine consort and the Smiling Divine Maiden are more beautiful than me."

    Xi Huangdi said gently to her, "In my heart, you are the heavens and everyone else is but the dirty earth. No one can bepared to the pureness of your beautiful look¡­"

    At least of course until he had plucked her pure yin.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong smiled shyly, "And you are also the most caring and gentle man that I''ve ever met too."

    Xi Huangdi knew that he had stirred her passions.

    And he continued with a wicked smile, "I love you right from the very start. I hope that you can be with me and be my cultivation partner. Are you willing?"

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong hesitated for a while before she nodded shyly, "I am most willing¡­ to be your cultivation partner. This is also my dreams as well."

    Xi Huangdi was smiling as his golden eyes greedily explored the revealing body of Spirit Concubine Su Hong, "I am hot with passion for you¡­"

    Then he had lowered his head to kiss her lips passionately.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong moaned softly and she was holding him tightly and rubbing herself against him.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xi Huangdi began to cup her bosoms and he could see through the translucent clothing that her nipples were perked and she was being aroused by his touches.

    Naturally his touches were also not any touches; it was because he had practiced another unorthodox dual cultivation skill called the Golden Plucking Fingers that could quickly arouse a maiden just by touching her.

    Right now, he was feeling her bosoms and he had another hand that had slipped down to in-between her butts as he tried to pry open her legs.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was moaning as she inhaled deeply and she looked really flustered.

    All of a sudden, the straps that bound her bosoms had loosened to the ground and this delighted Xi Huangdi who quickly caught hold of both of bosoms and he started to suck her nipples.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was clearly aroused as she struggled under the expert hands of Xi Huangdi and she was moaning, "I want¡­ I want¡­"

    Then she hastily loosened the belt that was on Xi Huangdi as she pulled down his pant to reveal his monstrous little brother.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong gasped with great coyness, "It is so big¡­ can it fit me¡­"

    Xi Huangdiughed jovially as he pressed her head to his little brother, "I want you to suck my little brother first. Don''t worry. This will be a pleasure experience for you. This will be fun."

    All of a sudden Xi Huangdi had a weird look on his face as he looked down with great agony; it was because Spirit Concubine Su Hong had sliced his little brother with a spirit talisman on the tips of her finger.

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was giggling all of a sudden, "Is it fun? Heehee¡­"

    Xi Huangdi was suddenly yelling aloud and he had fallen to the ground as Spirit Concubine Su Hong kicked him hard between his legs.

    Sheughed jovially, "My divine consort is right. All you male celestials are only fit to be her dogs. We have already known about you and your profound skills. Do you really think that we would really be affected by lusts as much as you celestials do? We are the Spirit Race and we cultivate the spirit. Stupid celestial."

    When she had finished, a dozen maidens were all giggling as they entered the ce together. Then they were all kicking and stomping Xi Huangdi who was in great agony.

    One of the maidens giggled, "I think I have identally stepped on his little brother and it is now a meat paste¡­"

    When Xi Huangdi had heard her, he was screaming aloud. "Nooo, my¡­ little¡­ brother¡­"

    He tried to muster his profound strength but he could not for two reasons.

    Firstly, he was in great pain and could not muster the fullness of his profound strength.

    Secondly, his source of cultivation hade from his little brother and once it was removed, his cultivation was literally screwed and he was now experiencing a severe bacsh to his cultivation core.

    Xi Huangdi summoned thest remaining of his strength to take out his golden talisman to escape from this ce.

    He had enough of this ce!

    And he did not want to be killed by these maidens who were kicking him furiously with their profound kicks.

    He could not believe that a powerful great saint like himself would be yed by a lowly Spirit Concubine today.

    1 to 1 and even 10 Spirit Concubines are not his match.

    But before he could burn his golden talisman with his profound strength, his golden talisman was snatched away by aughing Spirit Concubine Su Hong, "Mmm, are you thinking of running away? Because you can''t and we will also be taking away the profound treasures in your spatial storage for our divine consort."

    Xi Huangdi screamed aloud, "Kill¡­ me!!! Give me¡­ a QUICK DEATH!!!"

    But Spirit Concubine Su Hong and the dozen maidens were giggling, "Not so fast. Let''s not forget the number of maidens that you depraved men had trampled upon and you have also taken away their prides. We will let you die a most painful death and very slowly¡­"

    Another maiden giggled, "What was the name of that man again? He says he is an elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Pity he died pretty fast in a matter of days, without his limbs of course."

    "I am going to take his sword and put the scabbard into his mouth," Another maiden said.

    Another maiden giggled, "I will actually shove it up his arse¡­"

    "I''ve heard that these celestials won''t die if their golden body is intact. So I am going to stick a few swords in his body to see if this is really true¡­"

    "It is such a pity the show that our divine consort had arranged for the Smiling Divine Maiden was ruined today. Or else we may even find more rebels and depraved men tonight. But this detestable man shall make do..."

    Xi Huangdi was horrified because these maidens were serious and they were taking away his profound strength slowly by hitting him with their profound attacks and burning him with their spirit talismans¡­

    2, This chapter isn''t the R18 that you readers are expecting:X

 Chapter 751 The Flying Swords Domain

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now returning to the tavern with Divine Consort Tang Manni and far behind, were her female followers.

    It was quitete at night now and the streets were mostly empty.

    It was surprising peaceful to say the least and Ji Yuan was actually expecting for Divine Consort Tang Manni to be upset with him. After all he had abused her with his ugly words.

    This reminded him of the days when he had abused his beloved second core prot¨¦g¨¦ Shangguan Yan with his constant badmouthing¡­

    I''m gonna kick my badmouthing habit¡­

    Even though Ji Yuan was in his own thoughts and did not hear Xiang Li, she continued to giggle out: Big Brother, you are not going to kick your badmouthing habit because you talk too much.

    But the thing was, he had not expected for her to be a divine consort and he did not want to hurt her by flirting with her.

    Although he was constantly flirting with his eyes at the other maidens but he was just sight-seeing in this new ce and he was not serious about any new rtionships except for the divine consorts in this ce.

    He had to admit that he was only looking for ''Maiden Han Muyuan'' simply because he had learnt from Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei that her sister Tang Manni is a divine consort.

    This shocked him and that was why he was trying to pay her a secret visit and he did not want to let Xiao Muhan knows about her identity.

    But he did not expect that he would actually meet all four of the divine consorts in a single day; in the morning he had got rejected by all of them and at night, he was being asked to choose any 1 of them.

    He waspletely speechless by this strange twist of event and no one is going to believe him even if he tells them so.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly said quietly to him, "I''m sorry for lying to you about my true name."

    Ji Yuan was startled: She is saying sorry to me?!

    He quickly said, "Um no. It is my fault. I have such a bad mouth. I admit that I''ve said those ugly words on purpose to you¡­"

    He had decided toe clean as he said awkwardly, "You are right to be angry with me. I''ve actuallye to look for you because your sister told me that you are the Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­"

    "You are right. I am just a despicable celestial." Ji Yuan forced himself to admit it. He had no idea why he had decided toe clean with Divine Consort Tang Manni as though she was his friend.

    He was now waiting for Divine Consort Tang Manni to p him again and he would not dodge it as the wrong was on him first.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni lowered her eyes to say quietly, "It is alright. It is over now."

    Ji Yuan was startled by her nonchnt look, "Erm, you are not angry with me? You should. Anyone will be upset too."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni quietly said, "I call you Master Ji Yuan because you deserve to be called a Master. But not the other men. Do you know why?"

    Ji Yuan slowly shook his head¡­

    She continued with a soft sigh, "You are my benefactor and you have helped my sister. Do you know that my sister is the one that have helped me to cultivate into a divine consort? Without her help, I won''t be a divine consort. She is very important to me."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei is indeed very kind. When I was almost dead, she had also tried to save me."

    This time round, Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled. "You are almost dead? When?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Just recently. I got punched by Xiao Muhan and I was knocked out cold. Haha¡­ but it isn''t his fault actually. Your sister told me that there is something in my soul sea that is causing this. But don''t worry, she had left the tavern this morning to find a cure for me. Haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was truly startled, "My sister will rarely leave the tavern and she has left the tavern to find a cure for you? Do you know where she is going?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "I don''t know. Maiden Flower Ju says that this may take her some days."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had actually thought of going to the tavern to look for her sister.

    She was suddenly looking mncholy; it had suddenly urred to her that her sister was serious when she had asked Ji Yuan if he got a cultivation partner that day. She may really be interested in him since she had asked him this question. If her sister really likes Ji Yuan then she will dly give up on him¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly whispered to her, "We have been followed for quite some time now. It seems that they are getting quite impatient with me because you are still around me. Haha¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was truly startled as she whispered back, "We are being followed? Are you sure? With my spirit divine sense, it is hard for anyone to follow us."

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "They definitely know the range of your divine sense. Also, they are not following you but they are actually following me since I have left the tavern. I am sure you got a stronger divine sense than me since you are a spirit cultivator but I can definitely sense their killing intentions."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was in disbelief, "Are you really sure about this?"

    Ji Yuan said to her, "Watch me then as I flush them out."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had disyed a sword spirit on his right hand.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni gasped softly, "You have a sword spirit? You are a Sword Saint?"

    Even her female followers at the back were greatly startled¡­

    "He has a sword spirit?!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed a second sword spirt on his left hand and he was grinning, "Actually I have two."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was so startled that she took a step back, "You actually have 2 sword spirits?!"

    And her female followers were gasping with more shock especially when they did not know why Ji Yuan was suddenly disying his sword spirits.

    Some of them were even worried that Ji Yuan might attack their divine consort.

    "Your Divine Consort, please be careful! He has 2 sword spirits and he is probably a sword saint. He is a nemesis to our spirit profound arts, be careful!"

    Ji Yuan did not have his wooden box now since he had given it away to a young cultivator by the name of Shen Lie while he was in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    He had suddenly ced 9 divine swords in front of him with a sh of his fingers, startling everyone.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    1 half-step emperor divine sword.

    1 immortal-step divine sword.

    1 celestial-step sword.

    5 heaven-step divine swords.

    This however did not stop him from using his Flying Swords Domain as Ji Yuan exercised his sword intentions and immediately all 9 divine swords were wavering violently on the spot.

    Then he shouted loudly, "Go!"

    Immediately all 9 of his divine swords had uproot itself and were flying in 9 different directions like a sh of light!

    These divine swords pierced through the walls of the streets with a thunderous piercing sound as it sought out its targets.

    Almost immediately, there were loud screaming sounds.

    It was only then did the 20 female followers of Divine Consort Tang Manni were shocked that they were being followed.

    "We are being followed?"

    "By the other divine consorts?"

    "These are the screams of men. Maybe they are the rebels?"

    "Why are they following us?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was gasping with shock, "This is a sword art that requires the mastery of a sword domain. Master Ji Yuan, you are a Sword Immortal?!"

    When she had said that, the 9 divine swords had already returned next to Ji Yuan and he had kept them away.

    Ji Yuan coolly said, "This will teach them a lesson for trying to have murderous intentions against me."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni curiously asked him, "How did you get back your profound strength so quickly. I''m sure that using a sword domain requires plenty of your profound strength, am I right?"

    It was only then did Ji Yuan returned a most sheepish look at her, "I have spent 1000 million high grade spirit stones to replenish back some of my profound strength¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was stunned¡­

    It was because while spirit stones can replenish the inner spiritual sea of a cultivator but there is a limit on how much it can restore. Usually for a great saint like Ji Yuan, 100 000 high grade spirit stones can replenish roughly 10% of the spiritual sea until it hit a blocker. To replenish beyond this, every 1% will require twice as much more spirit stones of the highest quality.

    So 10% needs 100 000 spirit stones.

    11% requires 200 000 more spirit stones.

    12% requires 400 000 more spirit stones.

    13% requires 800 000 more spirit stones.

    14% requires 1.6 million more spirit stones.

    15% requires 3.2 million more spirit stones.

    16% requires 6.4 million more spirit stones.

    17% requires 12.8 million more spirit stones.

    18% requires 25.6 million more spirit stones.

    19% requires 51.2 million more spirit stones.

    20% requires 102.4 million more spirit stones.

    And so on.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni asked with great disbelief in her eyes, "Why don''t you use a replenishing profound pill instead? Do you know how much is 1000 million high grade spirit stones and how many replenishing profound pills that you can buy? You can save it to prepare for a 100% breakthrough and you have wasted it just like this?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said with a sheepish look, "Consuming too many profound pills are bad for my cultivation..."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said coldly, "Tell me the truth. Your heart is beating very fast."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly before he said with great awkwardness, "I''ve found out that I don''t have any replenishing profound pills anymore. If I know, I should have epted the 5 superior Iron Tendons profound pills from myst trial."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said with great disbelief, "Even so, do you really have to use 1000 million high grade spirit stones to replenish your profound strength?!"

    Ji Yuan weakly answered, "I was expecting a fight with the 4 divine consorts. And a sword saint neveres unprepared."

 Chapter 752 Hope Or No Hope? (1)

    ?

    The Guild of the Spirit Divine Records.

    It waste at night and Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei was still checking the Blue ess for a way to force out the profound darkness that was in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    She hadpletely regained her profound strength as a Great Divine Consort now and should be known as the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    However, she had forbidden the people in the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records from leaking this news out to the city-state.

    And in the Spirit Divine Realm, the words of a divine consort are thews. And moreover, she is a Great Divine Consort and herws are the decrees.

    However, as she did not trust the people in the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records for keeping this a secret, she had asked her 8 female followers to stop anyone from leaving or entering the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records until she has found a method in this ce.

    She was looking a little dismay as she sought to find a way to remove the profound darkness that was buried deep inside the inner spiritual sea of Master Ji Yuan''s soul sea but her search was futile and shecked the spiritual strength to do so; this may possible required a Spiritas Immortal to do so¡­

    All of a sudden, she was gasping with an inspiration, "Didn''t Master Ji Yuan have a True Divinity profound treasure? The name of that profound treasure is the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. Maybe I can borrow the profound power of that immortal profound artefact to force out the profound darkness that is buried within him¡­"

    This Golden Natal Divine Pearl had an extremely vast reserve of immortal spiritual force in it and it also had elements of the profound light within it.

    She paused for a while to think, "But I am not the master of that Golden Natal Divine Pearl and I can''t use it as my own profound strength¡­"

    But this was a good start to her and she started to search for the records of all kinds of immortal pearls and the methods of using them.

    In the new headquarter of the rebel resistance hideout.

    Elder Xie Tianzun was pacing around the main hall as he eagerly awaited the news of the 8 rebel leaders who also happened to be the strongest fighters in their resistance group.

    If the 8 of thembined their strength together, no one except a divine consort would survive theirbined attacks. They just have to find an opportunity to attack their ex-great rebel leader Yuan Ji and to kill him.

    Elder Xie Tianzun hoped that they would also be able to retrieve back some of the money from this double-crossing Yuan Ji as the resistance needed funds to continue its operations. There were already many reports that some men had already quit the resistance group and had be male entertainers for the female spiritas.

    He did not actually care about being the new great rebel leader because he had survived the past 13 great rebel leader and he was only an elder because he was poor inbat. That however, had protected him and eventually he had the opportunity to amass great influence and power within the resistance group.

    Of course, this had to do with the fact that he was willing to use his consort and harem as his pawn in order to please the other important men of the resistance group.

    His rise to power was not easy and he had been an elder for the past 500 years but it was worth it.

    Now he had almost unlimited power and was second in power to only the great rebel leader. Sometimes, even a great rebel leader did not have his type of influence and he could also dispose of them just like this Yuan Ji.

    At first, he had thought of making use of Yuan Ji to distract the dissent voices in the resistance group and to make use of him to gain even more funds for the resistance group to fund his luxurious life style and harem.

    Naturally he had arge harem, because his harem consisted of all the consorts, concubines and daughters of the fallen men in the resistance group.

    As he was pacing around, he was startled to see four injured men making their way into the hall and he had recognized them as 4 of the rebel leaders.

    It seemed that they had finally found the opportunity to assassinate Yuan Ji.

    He looked a little disappointed that there seemed to be only the 4 of them and there was a possibility that this Yuan Ji actually have the tenacity to kill the other 4 missing rebel leaders. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But he was not too concerned as he smiled to wee the 4 rebel leaders, "s! Wee back my rebel brothers! May the True Devil God be with all of you! I wonder which one of you are going to be the new great rebel leader? As for the consorts and daughters of our dead rebel brothers, I will take care of them."

    1 of the rebel leaders began to say angrily but he was also struggling to stand, "This Yuan Ji is a monster! He has killed 4 of our brothers!"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was startled, "What did you say? Is this Yuan Ji dead as well?"

    Another one of the rebel leaders said with a heavy sigh, "Dead? He is still alive and well."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked, "He lives? But is he also injured? We can send more teams to kill him. After all, the resistance group is an expert in hit and run tactics."

    The third rebel leader hummed weakly, "Forget it. He is not injured. We are not his match."

    Elder Xie Tianzun blinked his shocked eyes, "That Yuan Ji just look like a fool with his good-for-nothing beautiful face. How many rounds did you fight with him? Tell me about this and I devise a tactic ordingly."

    The fourth rebel leader hummed coldly, "We didn''t even have the chance to attack him and he has already sent his flying swords after us. If you really want to know, this is the result of just 1 hit from his flying swords."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was astonished, "Flying swords? Just 1 hit? He is a sword saint?"

    The first rebel leader that spoke said coldly, "Sword Saint? I am afraid that even a sword saint can''t do what he did. We are not attacked by his sword energies but his physical swords and from afar. He is probably a Sword Immortal and this is his sword domain."

    The second rebel leader sighed, "It is wiser for us to lie low for a while. We are not a match for this sword immortal and he even knows that we are following him. We have already done our best to keep ourselves hidden."

    Elder Xie Tianzun tried to encourage them, "Even if he is a Sword Immortal but he won''t have unlimited profound strength. When he is tired, he can still be defeated. We can attack him relentlessly."

    The third rebel leader said weakly, "Then why don''t you lead our men against him? We are a secret group. If you send all our men just to kill him, do you think the divine consorts won''t notice us and send their followers after us instead?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to smile weakly, "Yes, yes¡­"

    But he continued to say aloud, "But we definitely can''t spare him. After all, he is traitor to our rebel resistance group and he dared to run away with our funds."

    The fourth rebel leader coughed as he said with great pain, "I saw him in the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel and he was with the 4 divine consorts earlier and they had struck him down. We can''t really hear what was going on at the stage as there is an anti-sound barrier¡­"

    He coughed again before continuing, "That was why we are a little surprised to see him alive and well muchter. He was walking with Divine Consort Tang Manni and we have thought that this may be a perfect time for us to strike once he had partedpany with Divine Consort Tang Manni and her followers. But we did not even have that moment and he had suddenly attacked us from where he was standing."

    The first rebel leader said weakly, "We didn''t even know that he is going to attack us at that time¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun asked weakly as he suddenly noticed their cold gazes that were upon him, "What are you all trying to tell me?"

    The second rebel leader said coldly, "We are trying to tell you that for someone that can survive a fight with the 4 divine consorts and for someone that can kill 4 of our brothers with only 1 hit of his flying swords, it is best that we don''t make him our enemy."

    Elder Xie Tianzun asked weakly, "Is this your proposal?"

    The third rebel leader said with a heavy sigh, "No. We are trying to tell you that it is best that we continue to ept this Yuan Ji as our great rebel leader instead, if we do want to see a future hope for our resistance."

    Elder Xie Tianzunughed weakly, "This is impossible. He has stolen all our funds¡­"

 Chapter 753 Hope Or No Hope? (2)

    ?

    Elder Xie Tianzun was protesting loudly, "No way that we will make this traitor Yuan Ji as our great rebel leader. If he can steal our funds, then he can also betray us to the divine consorts. Don''t worry. We are the true men of the Spirit Divine Realm and we will continue to uphold the great traditions of our great spiritas divine lords¡­"

    "Well said." A man in a ck dark cloak had suddenly walked into the hall unnoticed by everyone.

    This startled Elder Xie Tianzun and all 4 of the rebel leaders.

    Immediately, all 5 men shouted. "Just who are you and how dare you trespass into our hideout!"

    This man in a ck cloak had suddenly exercised his profound strength and a powerful profound pressure had suddenly ttened everyone down on the ground!

    Elder Xie Tianzun and the 4 rebel leaders were all shocked; it was because they were suddenly experiencing the profound strength of a 8th Spirit Realm cultivator!

    "Who exactly I am?" The dark cloaked man had suddenlyughed. "I am the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. I am naturally here to be your new great rebel leader."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked, "Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong? You are an immortal spiritas from the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    Even the 4 rebel leaders were all stammering with shock and they were all muttering, "Mighty divine lord, you have heard our prayers¡­"

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong hummed coldly, "Naturally I have heard your prayers to the True Devil God and that is why I have descended to help you. It is a lucky thing that you have still kept the ancient shrine array that is left behind in a perfect condition."

    Elder Xie Tianzun and the 4 rebel men were all weeping with tears of joy; finally, they had a powerful immortal divine lord on their side.

    An immortal divine lord is naturally more powerful than any divine consorts, even great divine consorts!

    Elder Xie Tianzun smiled, "Naturally we have to keep the shrine array in perfect condition and we take it everywhere with us. It is important to us for the worship of the True Devil God and the past divine lords."

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong said slowly as he loosened the profound pressure upon them, "You may address me as the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Tell me everything about this city-state. Tell me who are the current divine consorts and the current state of affairs in the Spirit Divine Realm. Tell me where is Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei now."

    Elder Xie Tianzun answered with great delight, "Your Immortal Divine Lord, you havee time in a nick of time to teach all these divine consorts a lesson. Finally, you have heard our prayers and have descended upon the Spirit Divine Realm. All hail the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong!"

    The four rebel leaders were all hastily shouting to greet their new great rebel leader as well, "All hail the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong."

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong appeared to be frowning, "Indeed I have heard your prayers and it cost me 100 million immortal jades and several valuable immortal spirit profound treasures to descend here and I can only stay here for a short period of time."

    Elder Xie Tianzun and the 4 rebel leaders were all deeply shocked: 1000 million immortal jades?!

    1 immortal jade is already rare enough in the Spirit Divine Realm and is worth 100 million high grade spirit stones.

    Exactly how many millions of high grade spirit stones or even spirit jades are required for 1000 million immortal jades?

    They were all looking stupefied.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong said, "Therefore I am also here to clean this city-state of all its immortal jades. I have no use for the useless spirit stones and spirit jades. They are toomon and worthless in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Elder Xie Tianzun immediately answered gleefully, "I am sure Your Immortal Divine Lord can surely find plenty of immortal jades from the divine consorts here."

    The other 4 men were all nodding gleefully.

    They only know now that their rebel resistance now has a new hope, even that Yuan Ji would soon be dead and all the prides of the divine consorts trampled under their manly pride now.

    It was because they had an immortal divine lord to help them now!

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong looked a little bitter in his eyes; it was because the Supreme Divine Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm could only afford to send a low level immortal like him to the lower Spirit Divine Realm as they could not afford the astronomical cost in sending a 9th Spirit Realm Immortal to this ce.

    In the Greater Spirit Realm, he was only fit to work in the mines of his masters, the Supreme Divine Gods.

    Before sending him here to the Spirit Divine Realm, his masters had told him that they had detected a powerful profound darkness disturbance and it seems that the True Devil God had awakened in the lower Spirit Divine Realm.

    That was why he was being sent to this mission at a great cost to his masters who were desperate for more immortal jades for their breakthroughs.

    And he was being warned that he had better redeem himself by recing the 1000 million immortal jades that were being used to send him to the lower Spirit Divine Realm.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong said coldly, "Now ording to our ancient traditions, I want you to bring all your maidens, be they your mothers, consorts, concubines, daughters or your grand-daughters to me. I want to pluck all of them."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked since he had the biggest harem of them all.

    But he dared not say no to this mighty immortal divine lord.

    Even by the current practices of these depraved rebels, this was too much but ordingly to the ancient traditions of the spiritas, this was their normal depraved rule.

    The weak shall serve the strong; it is as simple as that.

    Elder Xie Tianzun and the other 4 rebel leaders could only say weakly, "As youmand us, Your Immortal Divine Lord."

    3 of the men actually did not mind.

    It was because 2 of them actually did not have any consorts.

    And 1 of them may have a consort but he knows that his consort was frequently yed upon by Elder Xie Tianzun and he did not mind anymore.

    Most of the men in the resistance actually did not have a consort; it is because the female spiritas have a natural strong dislike of the men and they are not as lusty as the men due to their spirit cultivations. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Moreover the men here all have low fertility and most couples are often childless.

    That is also the reason why the high fertility male celestials with good characters are seen in a better light than the male spiritas by the female spiritas.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong replied nonchntly, "Good."

    But there was no hint of any delight in his eyes.

    It was because before he had descended to the lower Spirit Divine Realm, he had been warned by his masters the Supreme Divine Gods that he should not pluck any of the female spiritas nobles.

    To enforce theirmands, they had put a restrictivemand in his soul sea so divine consorts, spirit consorts, fairy concubines and spirit concubines were all off limit to him and they could not be plucked by him.

    This was worse than death for him!

    His masters, the Supreme Divine Gods and there were 6 of them were naturally not that kind hearted to be exact.

    It was because they wanted to pluck all the divine consorts that had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm for themselves and they did not want anyone else to im the ''First Right'' to have them.

    There was a terrible time and for a long time that there were simply no female spiritas in the Greater Divine Realm.

    For the depraved divine lords that had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, it was a ce that was worse than death and it was hell.

    Finally, one of Supreme Divine Gods had an idea and said to the rest. "We can give the female spiritas in the lower Spirit Realm a helping hand. Then we can bestow upon them our immortal Spiritas Tower for them and bestowed on them some of our immortal strength to elerate their ascension. Then this won''t be too boring for us."

    Another had asked, "Then what about the men? What will happen to the great tradition of our great spiritas race?"

    The most powerful of them said, "Why should we care about the men? They are not pureblood spiritas anymore. Even if they can ascend to our Greater Spirit Realm, they are only fit to go to the mines for the pureblood spiritas. Therefore, my decision is clear. Help the female spiritas to ascend and then we shall feast upon them. As for the men, they can all go to the great void!"

    In the past, the male spiritas had oppressed the female spiritas so much to the extreme that none of them could really cultivate and none of them could really grow powerful enough to contest with the divine lords and the other noble male spiritas.

    Needless to say, there was no female spiritas that could ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm and the divine lords that had ascended soon found themselves in an immortal realm without any female spiritas.

    But they had suddenly noticed that there was one female spiritas in the lower Spirit Divine Realm that was forming a resistance and she appeared to be stronger than most of the female spiritas.

    By their spirit divinations, they had also discovered that she happened to have the Goddess Tear with her and that was why, she was stronger in her cultivation than most.

    However it was still not enough.

    Therefore they had sent a couple of male immortals to the Spirit Divine Realm at a terrible great cost that drained all the avable immortal jades in the Greater Divine Realm.

    And from there, these immortals had secretly helped to kill the other divine lords that could oppose this female spiritas heroine whoter on be the First Divine Consort.

    It took them many years because the lower Spirit Divine Realm is actually a vast heavenly realm and even a few of the low level immortals have also got themselves killed as they were facing an entire world of hostile divine lords armed with their spirit profound treasures.

    But finally, they had seeded in killing every single one of the divine lords. And as mentioned before, ites at a wanton terrible cost to the Supreme Divine Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong himself was lucky to have yed with the First Divine Consort a few times when his masters had grown bored of her after their harems began to grow.

    But it was only a few times and only under special circumstances; it is because the ascended divine consorts are all rare resources and are traded between his six masters.

    As for low level immortal divine lords like himself, they were confined mostly to the immortal mines and had no maidens to copte with.

    The number of ascensions are still very few despite the fact that ten thousand years had already passed. But at least his masters are happier now because there are finally some female spiritas in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Now Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong also had a second mission and it was to find out the reason why there was a failed ascension by Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei 500 years ago.

    500 years ago, she was supposed to ascend to the Greater Divine Realm and 1 of his masters had already won the bid to have the first right to pluck her and moreover she was highly prized because her pure yin was also intact.

    Also, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had an unusual spirit constitution as well and anyone that copted with her would be able to receive a cultivation benefit.

    That was also tje reason why this master had fiercely bid with the other masters to have the special ''First Right'' to copte with her.

    But halfway through her supposed ascension, this ascension had suddenly failed and this master had demanded to know why.

    And for that, this master had been furious for the past 500 years.

    The other masters were also disappointed and angry because it had cost them a lot to open the Immortal Spiritas Tower and they could only activate it only once every 500 years.

    All of them wanted to make Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as their personal harlot and to cause her to go deeply into depravity.

 Chapter 754 Ji Yuan And Divine Consort Tang Manni

    ?

    Divine Consort Tang Manni did not make any special requests from Ji Yuan and she had simply said that she was only going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel on the request of Maiden Flower Ju to aid him if he was in trouble.

    Actually, Ji Yuan was grateful to her for that; he knows that she was upset with him but yet she was still willing toe to his aid even though she did not want to see him.

    But he was too awkward to talk further to her and there were too many things that were on his mind tonight that he needed to digest first.

    Once Ji Yuan and Divine Consort Tang Manni had reached Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei''s tavern, they quickly learnt from Maiden Flower Ju that Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei still had not returned.

    After that, it was just a simply good night between the two of them and the two of them had both departed to their resting rooms.

    Once he had rested, he could talk to her tomorrow.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had quietly gone to her personal room in the tavern and so did her 20 female followers. Even though this was not her real home but her sister had permantly reserved the best room here for her.

    And she had often frequented this tavern and often sought instructions from her Sister Xu Yifei on the methods of cultivations.

    This tavern was like a second home to her and even her female followers were no strangers to this ce and they would pretend to be diners while she was here.

    Looking at the backview of Ji Yuan as he left for his personal room, Divine Consort Tang Manni looked a little lost; it was because she had not expected herself to like him and she did not know how to continue this rtionship.

    The other 3 divine consorts were brave enough to im Ji Yuan as their man and cultivation partner but for her, she was too shy to say anything when it mattered for her to say so.

    But she just could not say it in public in front of the other 3 divine consorts.

    That was why she had suddenly appeared to be lost when Ji Yuan had chosen her to take him away and had even dered loudly that the reason why he had chosen Divine Consort Tang Manni to the other 3 divine consorts was simply because she did not want him to be his cultivation partner or champion.

    But this was not true.

    It was because she had secretly hoped that Ji Yuan would sincerely like her for who she really is and not because she is a divine consort.

    She was actually quite impressed by him after he had helped her Sister Xu Yifei in her condition.

    For the past 500 years, she had been depleting her cultivation resources just to find a cure for her sister''s ailment even though her sister told her not to.

    She just could not understand why her sister, a genius among the geniuses, will fail in her ascension.

    In the past 10 000 years, there was never a genius divine consort like her sister that could reach the peak in just 500 years.

    She was a genius spirit cultivator that could reach the peak without the aid of the Great Blessings of the Spiritas Tower.

    But at the Spiritas Tower, when her Sister Xu Yifei be the pride of all the spiritas in Snowy Pavilion City over the other city-states, she had suddenly failed in her ascension after receiving the great blessings of the Immortals from the Greater Spirit Realm.

    When she had asked her Sister Xu Yifei about this, she simply said nonchntly. "Perhaps, this is my fate."

    But she refused to say anything more about why she had suddenly failed.

    All these years, she was beginning to wonder if her sister had stay behind in the Spirit Divine Realm because of her and she tried very hard to follow in the footsteps of her sister.

    Even though today she had be one of the two most powerful divine consorts in Snowy Pavilion City, she could not ovee that crucial breakthrough to be a Great Divine Consort.

    Even Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had also been struck in her spirit cultivation for a long time.

    The only way to sessfully gained this cultivation breakthrough was to obtain the Great Blessings of the Immortal Spiritas in the Spiritas Tower that would be opened every 500 years.

    And for that, she would need a strong champion to represent her.

    Till now, she had not found her champion yet.

    But if she picked Ji Yuan to be her champion and he happens to win the great games of the Spiritas Tower then she would be forcefully ascended to the Greater Divine Realm and she has to say farewell to him.

    But he is a celestial and he has to leave after 70 days as well.

    Why must fate be so cruel to the two of them and forced them to be in two different realms?

    Of course, there is still one more option left for Ji Yuan; he can of course decide to stay permanently in the Spirit Divine Realm by removing his ck trial ring.

    But this was something that Divine Consort Tang Manni did not want to force him to do. After all, he was in this ce just take his cultivation trial.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    -

    -

    -

    The next morning when Ji Yuan had stopped by at the counter where Maiden Flower Ju was, the first thing that he had asked her was. "Is Divine Consort Tang Manni up already?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "She has already left with her followers."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Surely not." He said bitterly.

    He had spent the whole night thinking about something and he had an idea all of a sudden.

    Since he knows that his senior sister is a champion of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, maybe he can ask her if he can be her champion. Then he can also join the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower and be at the same ce as his senior sister.

    Also, he wanted to find out more about this Spiritas Tower from her.

    But to his shock, she had already left.

    He could only mutter weakly to himself: She must still be upset with me¡­

    Then he asked, "Is Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei back yet?"

    Maiden Flower Ju shook her head, "My mistress is still not back yet."

    Ji Yuan began to sign heavily; the two maidens that know about the Spiritas Tower are all not around¡­

    So he asked Maiden Flower Ju, "Do you know anything about the Spiritas Tower and what is in there?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled wryly, "Only divine consorts and their champions are allowed to enter the Spiritas Tower. I will suggest that you ask my mistress or Divine Consort Tang Manni instead. They know more than I do and I don''t want to mislead you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is a little too secretive¡­"

    And he was cursing himself for not asking Divine Consort Tang Mannist night. But then again, she may not answer himst night as she may suspect his motives for asking and also, he may not be her ideal champion.

    "Oh, by the way." Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Divine Consort Sun Dingjun has sent word that she will help to take care of Xiao Muhan for you. And she will send him back to you after he has signed a spirit contract to be her champion."

    Ji Yuan said with a heavy sigh, "s, my Brother Xiao Muhan. You know what, I am beginning to miss him really badly¡­"

    Among his best friends, only Xiao Muhan and Guo Taiming were the only ones that would not butter up to him and together, they were perfectly at ease to speak their most unpleasant minds out.

    And they were his true friends.

    Ji Yuan also had many friends like Li Ye, Shen Qin and among others but they were more interested to butter him up so he did not really think of them as his true friends.

    Ji Yuan sighed again, "I really hope that Brother Xiao Muhan will have a pleasant time while he is in thepany of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun¡­"

    Then he was suddenly frowning to himself, "Dang! Isn''t this what he really wants in the first ce? To gain the trust of a divine consort. And this Divine Consort Sun Dingjun looks so easy going and she is always blushing. The longer that Xiao Muhan is with her, the more that I fear for her safety¡­

 Chapter 755 Xiao Muhan And Divine Consort Sun Dingjun

    ?

    At the vi of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    In the early morning, Xiao Muhan was summoned to the audience of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and he was pleasantly surprised.

    He would be even be more surprised if he had learnt that Ji Yuan was actually missing him this morning. But unfortunately, this was apletely one-sided affair from Ji Yuan as Xiao Muhan sure did not miss him at all.

    Not even a single chance.

    He was actually missing Divine Consort Sun Dingjun this morning because she was his ''Trust Points''. And he had been thinking the entire night how he could impress her with his renown as the Saint of Painting.

    After all, he had shared the renown of the Renowned Two Brushes with Ji Yuan, who was renowned as a Great Poet.

    Right now, he was now in the audience with Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and she was more astonishing beautiful in person than from afar.

    He could still clearly remember the rity of her golden aura as she flied to chase the rebels the first time. It was indeed a most wondrous sight.

    Right now, he was looking at her mesmerizing slender body and her rosy small lips and if he could describe her and that was, "Unparallel great beauty!"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled as she saw that Xiao Muhan was staring at her and she was obviously someone that knows her own enticing charm and she chucked, "You are making me blush by the look of your eyes. So how is your morning?"

    Xiao Muhan chuckled back, "Very good, Your Divine Consort! I am actually looking forward to meeting you. Hahahaha¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun giggled, "That''s good, Saint Xiao Muhan. I''ve summoned you because you are stronger than most of the male spiritas in my city-state and therefore, you are suitable to be my champion in the Spiritas Tower. Are you willing to be my champion?"

    Xiao Muhanughed jovially, "Of course I am willing to be your champion!"

    That would mean that his Trust Points would also be increasing and then he would find a chance to bang her for his 100 Trust Points.

    That was what Ji Yuan and he had been thinking the whole time; bang all the divine consorts to achieve 100 Trust Points.

    They were men and what better way to get 100 Trust Points than banging the divine consorts!

    And Xiao Muhan was confident of his manly charms as he stroked his beard in front of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled when she saw that Xiao Muhan had agreed to be her champion and she continued with a mesmerizing giggle, "That is indeed a great news for me. But you know. You should shave your beard like Ji Yuan. You look ugly with your beard."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    What? She has no sense of appreciation for the beauty of my beard?!

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun took a look at his legs too, "And also your hairy legs as well."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled, "After you have signed the spirit contact with me to be my champion, you are free to go back to your friend Ji Yuan there¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was actually thinking: Actually, I want to stay here with you¡­ for my Trust Points¡­

    And he was about to say that aloud when Divine Consort Sun Dingjun added with a soft sigh, "But you seem to be a weak saint. I''ve never seen a celestial saint that is as weak as you. This is a little disappointing for me."

    Xiao Muhan was suddenly smiling weakly; it was because he was indeed a weak saint cultivator. He was only at the initial earth-step holy saint cultivation.

    When a celestial cultivator reaches the holy saint cultivation, every little step will require tremendous amount of cultivation resources and it is extremely difficult for them to have a breakthrough, often requiring hundreds of years and even thousands of years.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He simply could not understand how Ji Yuan make the jump from a peaked sixth rank golden supremacy to a half-step saint in just 100 years when hecked even the basic cultivation resources. And also, how the heck did Ji Yuan be a peaked great saint in less than 2 years after bing a holy saint.

    His speed of cultivation was a little too ridiculous and his foundation was too weak.

    He was beginning to wonder if Ji Yuan had a level 1 score out of 10 in all his cultivation foundations due to his hasty cultivation.

    Xiao Muhan had never expected that he would one day ovee his lightning tribtion to be a great saint and he felt that the highest celestial cultivation that he could achieve with his cultivation wealth was just the middle tier saint cultivation realm.

    But back to the question why Divine Consort Sun Dingjun thought that he was a little weak was because he was in the upper area of the final trial now. Most of the celestials that could reach the upper final trial were all high-level saints and they had considerablebat prowess.

    And they could reach this upper final trial location by not losing their one and only golden talisman through the dangerous maze of deste beasts roaming in the final trial and the great dangers in the trials inside as well.

    However, their imminent dangers alwayse from the other celestials who see one another as a rival.

    That was also a reason why some trials require a certain number of celestials for the trial to actually start or that it was a group trial. It was designed in this manner to stop them from killing one another through boredom or bullying.

    Xiao Muhan had basically been carried over the final trial by Ji Yuan and Mo Bei or else he would not be able to reach the upper final trial.

    As a matter of fact, he had already lost his allocated golden talisman quite early at the lower final trial to Matriarch Xi Jingping.

    Therefore, Xiao Muhan could onlyugh weakly at Divine Consort Sun Dingjun''s reply.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was once again smiling beautifully at Xiao Muhan, "You are Ji Yuan''s best friend, right? Quick! I want you to tell me everything about Ji Yuan. Not a word less. By everything, I mean everything about him."

    Xiao Muhan was suddenly growling, "There is nothing about that rascal to talk about except for his ck history. I can tell you more about myself¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun returned an unpleasant look at Xiao Muhan, "Is this the way you are supposed to gain your Trust Points with me? You should try to ede to my requests."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Also, I can tell that you are a depraved ve because you have a ve seal in your soul core." Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled.

    Xiao Muhan was shocked; she can even tell just by looking at me?!

    Divine Consort Dingjun giggled, "You know. I can help you to remove your ve seal if you tell me everything about Ji Yuan."

    Xiao Muhan was startled and he was stammering, "Really? You can?"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun giggled as she nodded coyly, "Heh! I am a divine consort and a high level spirit cultivator. If I can tell that you have a ve seal, naturally I can also remove it for you. This is all too easy for me. Moreover, your ve seal already has a crack in it."

    Xiao Muhan was stunned.

    But he quickly regained hisposure to chuckle delightfully, "For the loveliness of Your Divine Consort, I am willing to betray everything about Ji Yuan to you. Not a word less. You have no idea how many maidens this rascal has¡­"

    Elsewhere, Ji Yuan suddenly had a sneeze and he was fondly thinking, "It must be my Brother Xiao Muhan who is missing me already¡­"

 Chapter 756 Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao Is Truly Pissed Off

    ?

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, 6th level.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming had all managed to reach the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they looked pleased.

    At least that was when they had first stepped foot on the 6th level.

    Right now, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was looking a little pissed off and for the right reasons.

    It was because of a prelude trial on the 6th level to obtain the Pangu Key in order to enter the Inner Pangu Citadel for the final trial.

    This prelude trial required her to go to the lower mortal realm and to help the mortal cultivators there.

    And she had failed numerous times.

    Luckily for her, the flow of time was much slower in the mortal realm than here or else her trial would have already ended.

    Li Ye, Shen Qin and Guo Taiming had actually finished earlier and they were patiently waiting her and they wereughing aloud. "This is easy. I love to do good deeds in the lower mortal realm. Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao must really be unlucky in her trial."

    This was awkward to Ding Xiaoxiao''s face since she was reluctant to do any good deeds but she was being forced to, in order to obtain the Pangu Key.

    Without this Pangu Key, no one can enter the Inner Pangu Citadel.

    But this was not the real reason why she had been so pissed.

    There was another reason why she had also been pissed was because they had to take a cultivation examination in the inner Pangu Citadel before they could be allowed into the final trial.

    And she had failed miserably.

    She was a demonic cultivator and not a celestial cultivator; how the heck did she knows about most of the celestial cultivation questions?

    And thispulsory cultivation examination was pissing her off and she felt like killing someone.

    Unfortunately for her, there were some 100 000 golden celestials taking the cultivation examinations at the same time as well and she decided to restraint herself.

    Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming were also looking a little pissed off as well even though they were all celestial cultivators.

    And they found out that there were many that had taken this cultivation examination multiple times.

    Luckily for them, they soon found out that almost all the cultivators that were taking this cultivation examination were all cheating. It was just a matter who got lucky enough to cheat and who got unlucky to be caught.

    After trying out several times, the 4 of them joined a Cheaters Group to learn the art of cheating and to disy subtle clues to one another.

    There were naturally many Cheaters Groups in this ce because almost everyone was also cheating.

    And each time someone graduates from this trial, the core strength of this group bes weaker and they had to find someone for an answer.

    The Cheater Group that Ding Xiaoxiao, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming had joined naturally wee them, expecting them to give them a new insights on the answers.

    However, the four of them turned out to be extremely weak in their cultivation studies.

    Ding Xiaoxiao, Li Ye and Guo Taiming med it all on Shen Qin who was a saint from a renowned unorthodox celestial sect and they were expecting him to do better than them in a cultivation examination.

    But unfortunately, he turned out to be a good-for-nothing cultivator who never studied for his cultivation examination.

    And they all got screwed.

    After failing for numerous times, a new group of schrly celestials had joined their Cheater Group. Now this new group was more capable and they helped everyone to pass.

    By now, Ding Xiaoxiao, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming had all be so good in cheating during the cultivation examinations that they were able to read one another''s subtle expressions.

    Li Ye muttered weakly, "We have finally passed this cultivation examination. Now we can move on to the final trial."

    Shen Qin was also heaving a soft sign of relief, "Finally!"

    Guo Taiming turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiao and he was smiling, "It seems that Maiden Ding is really a weak cultivator and she needs our help to reach the final trial."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    But again, this was also not the main reason why she had beenpletely pissed off.

    The real reason why she was so pissed was because after these two trials, she had to take another trial again to obtain a Key of Righteous to enter into the final trial.

    And she had failed again.

    But luckily for her, these 3 trials were not a one-time trial and she was allowed to retake as many times as she wanted until she passed it.

    And Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming once again gave her some tips to ovee her trials when they had passed this trial.

    They did not fail as many times as her.

    Li Ye actuallypleted this trial when he had taken it for the very first time while Guo Taiming and Shen Qin both failed many times but not as many times as Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Li Ye sighed, "Maiden Xiao is really a noob and a low level golden celestial. I can see why she keeps failing¡­"

    Shen Qin was also sighing, "Even for a golden saint, it is still hard to reach the 6th level of this trial. I think I am pretty good now after reaching the 6th level for the first time."

    Guo Taiming was alsoughing, "Actually this is my first time too and I''ve reached the 6th level. I am so impressedby myself. I am betting that Ji Yuan is probably far behind us. You guys don''t know him well. He is extremely slow with the trials and he likes to take his own sweet time to check every single crack in the walls for clues. And also, he likes to talk too much like a maiden. That is the reason why I don''t like to take the trials with him."

    Li Yeughed weakly, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is a maiden of few words. But frankly speaking, I feel quite proud of making it through the 6th level. I was actually told that due to my cultivation realm, I''ll be lucky if I can reach the 4th level. I just need more of the replenishing Iron Tendons profound pills."

    Shen Qin nodded, "Me too. It seems that profound pills that can replenish profound strength are highly valued inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I was quite lucky to obtain some as my reward in thest trial."

    Guo Taiming agreed with Shen Qin, "Brother Shen Qin. We are depending on your Iron Tendons profound pills now. In this ce, we cannot buy new profound pills and I have already finished all my profound pills."

    Shen Qinughed, "Don''t worry. Just depend on me. I''ve actually heard that once we are in the 6th level, the profound treasures here will be so much better than the lower levels. Don''t worry, you guys will soon get your cultivation urrences!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He added, "Darn. This Key of Righteousness is so hard. I am an unorthodox cultivator¡­ I hope Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is able toplete this. I''ve faked my righteousness in order toplete this trial."

    Guo Taiming muttered, "I am an orthodox cultivator but I''ve failed so many times as well. This trial of Righteous is too frustrating. At times, I hope that all the men in my kingdom would die and I could have all the maidens."

    Shen Qinughed weakly, "Exactly. That is what I was thinking too. Hahahaha¡­"

    And the three men began tough weakly.

    This time round Ding Xiaoxiao managed to pass the trial but there was a look of unpleasantness in her eyes.

    She was really quite pissed off and had suppressed her anger.

    Finally, she had obtained the Key of Righteous and a red portal had appeared.

    Although she was quite pissed off, she had restrained from killing these 3 men off because they have been helping her for the past 3 trials.

    When she had failed this Trial of Righteous, Li Ye did not go alone to the final trial but he had waited for everyone and helped everyone to find the golden portal to restart the trial in the maze here.

    It was really hard to find a golden portal considered that there were now thousands of golden celestials that were searching for one in the maze at the same time.

    But these 3 celestial men had patiently waited for her.

    She forced herself to smile, "Let''s go to the final trial now."

    When they had entered through the red portal to the final trial area, they had entered a vast waiting area and were informed by the Trial Spirit that the portal to the final area was now opened.

    They were given a golden talisman each and were told that this golden talisman is able to able to help them to exit a trial to a nearby location and it can also replenish their profound strength. But if they encounter something dangerous outside the trial then this golden talisman will send them to the the start of the final trial and they will have to start all over again.

    They were then bade good fortunes for the final trial by the Trial Spirit.

    Once inside they were inside the final trial portal, they saw that there were already thousands of golden celestials that were camping around.

    These golden celestials were the ones that have lost their golden talismans and were forced to restart at the start of the final trial but they did not want to give up so easily.

    So they were either trying to buy a golden talisman off another cultivator by offering profound treasures or they were trying to look for a big group to raid the trials of the final trial together.

    Some were simply trying to sell information about the trials that they had found by acting mysterious. Some of the trial information are true, some are not.

    When the thousands of celestials saw this new group, many were thinking of trying to trick them into giving up their golden talismans or through bullying.

    It was because this group looked a little weak especially Guo Taiming and Li Ye, who looked like a poor cultivator.

    Shen Qin saw them and he said to them, "Dang! There are so many thousands of them. Why are they here and not doing their trials? But fear not, my blessed brothers and sisters of the heavens, I am a holy saint of a powerful unorthodox celestial sect. Just tell them that you are with me and there is nothing that we can be afraid of."

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly said, "The first one that ising our way is a great saint."

    Shen Qin had suddenly turned pale and so did Li Ye and Guo Taiming¡­

    They had also sensed the profound animus of a great saint that was fast approaching them and they were the nearest of the many groups of celestials that had just entered the final trial.

    Holy! Great Saint! They can''t win against him, much less the thousands of celestials that were also looking in their direction.

    Shen Qin suggested weakly, "We should run¡­ he don''t look too friendly."

    Li Ye nodded, "Totally agree with you."

    Guo Taiming said, "I am preparing to use my golden talisman to to run and to replenish my profound strength already. You know, just in case he is really an unfriendly celestial¡­"

    Behind them were actually also several dozens of golden celestials that had also just entered or newly arrived in the final trial and many were saying, "We should all flee into the forest and the desert ahead of us first. It is obvious that they are camping for us¡­"

    "Maybe they just want to do some trading with us?"

    "There can''t be so many thousands of unfriendly celestials right?"

    "Maybe they are just trying to protect us from the others?"

    "Anyway, I don''t wish to know about their intentions¡­"

    "I was here 500 years ago. I can tell you that they are after our golden talisman. They are only here because they have lost their golden talisman to someone else or they have used it up. We need to hurry and flee from them. Without the golden talismans, they can''t explore the dangerous trials inside¡­"

    The great saint that was way ahead of the thousands of golden celestials in the vicinity was smiling coldly and he had raised his profound voice to shout aloud as he sped across the canyons, "Darn it! The Trial Spirit always ensure that she spawns the neers away from us. But unfortunately, I am a great saint and I happen to be nearest to you. I am not greedy. Just surrender me a golden talisman from one of you and I will be happy to go away."

    He was actually smart enough not to obtain more than 1 golden talisman or else he would have be the target of all the other golden celestials.

    All of a sudden Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had shed to the great saint at an impossible great speed and she had knocked him down the canyon with a just a blow from her scabbard.

    She had been holding back her anger for some time and she wanted to kill someone or anyone now.

    All the onlookers were gasping with shock: ¡­

    All the onlookers were stunned: ¡­

    All the onlookers were gasping that it was but a blow: ¡­

    Because they were so far, they could not tell what Ding Xiaoxiao''s true cultvation was or else they would be shocked that she had just disyed her profound strength to the peaked 8th immortal positioning.

    While a cultivator can disy their profound aura to warn the others of their cultivation strength. But when a cultivator is using one''s own internal profound power instead, the other cultivators must be nearby in order to use their divine sense to gauge the cultivation strength of their opponent.

    That was why none of them could tell the cultivation strength of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

 Chapter 757 The Evil Cultivation Palace

    ?

    The Celestial Realm in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    A huge ck citadel was now floating in the heavens and it had reached the lofty mountains of the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    This was a mother of all the profound ships and there were 20rge profound ships that formed part of its armada. But these 200rge profound ships were only 1/100 the size of this huge ck citadel.

    Apanying these 20rge profound ships, were an additional 400 medium and smaller size profound ships.

    The name of this huge ck citadel was called the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Right now, the Evil Cultivation Pce was attacking the Celestial Orthodox Sect, 1 of the 7 major orthodox celestial sects in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the celestial sect of Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Zhao Songjin and Sacred Matriarch Han Yuchi.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce required tons of spirt jades and immortal jades to fly. These were rare in the Celestial Realm, especially the immortal jades. Therefore, it required tons of high grade spirit stones in order to fly.

    This was naturally not an issue for the Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian since he had with him the huge resources of the Great Demon God and the Great Deste Divine Pce now.

    For thousands of years, every 500 years, the Great Demon God was able to farm a huge number of profound treasures and billions of high grade spirit stones from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth by setting up a secret base inside the final trial itself.

    Now everything that was once the Great Demon God was now owned by the Evil Cultivation God.

    And for the very first time since the Evil Cultivation God had descended to the Celestial Realm, he was once again able to fly his Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Although the Evil Cultivation Pce is monstrous huge but it still pales inparison to the huge size of the Great Deste Divine Pce and the Ancient Fortress City of the Deste Immortals.

    The Evil Cultivation God could move the Great Deste Divine Pce to awe all his enemies but there was just a little problem; it had to remain in ce as the Great Demon God has used the Great Deste Divine Pce as an immortal artefact to seal the way to the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm.

    And also, there was not a lot of spirit stones left to power the Great Deste Divine Pce after the Great Demon God had used hundreds of billions of spirit stones to seal the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm from the Celestial Realm.

    This was a masterful n that took the Great Demon God thousands of years to n and to execute.

    And the one that will be reaping all the benefits is the Evil Cultivation God instead.

    In the Deste Celestial Realm, there are 3 forbidden pces that can be called the consecrated grounds of the Deste Celestial Realm. They are the Evil Cultivation Pce, the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and the Water Melody Pce.

    These 3 forbidden pces are ranked higher than the 12 major celestial sects of the Deste Celestial Fraternity at which 7 are the orthodox celestial sects and 5 are the unorthodox celestial sects.

    Today the Evil Cultivation Pce has no need to fear from the Hundred Flower Divine Pce or the Water Melody Pce anymore as it surfaces into the Deste Celestial Fraternity to run its rampage.

    It was because Saintess Fang Zhenfei, the Divine Pce Mistress of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and once the long-time foe of the Evil Cultivation Pce was now dead.

    The entire Deste Celestial Fraternity had now lost their only lead heroine and the Evil Cultivation Pce had no strong enemy now to oppose it.

    Also, the 20 profound ships that were apanying the Evil Cultivation Pce consisted of the most powerful celestial leaders of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Many of these celestial leaders are from the 12 major celestial sects. Their forces consisted of a third of from the 7 major orthodox celestial sects and half of them are from the 5 major unorthodox sects.

    And these celestial leaders have openly allied with the Evil Cultivation Pce, either through their own willingness or being cowered.

    it was not to say that the split in the 12 major celestial sects were even. Even in the same celestial sect, the elders were heavily divided and they all believed that they were all acting in the best interests of their celestial sects. Hence, they were called the ''traitors'' by the enemies of the Evil Cultvation Pce.

    The Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian, Number 2 Murong Yue and the Goddess Alyssa were in the Evil Cultivation Pce as the profound ship cast its darkness upon the Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    All the holy maidens of the Celestial Orthodox Sect would be made avable for the plucking of the Evil Cultivation Pce once they had conquered this ce.

    However, there was a little problem.

    Like in the Eons Firmament Mountains a few days ago, all the opposing celestials had already fled in their profound ships.

    And the Celestial Orthodox Sect was also emptied.

    Matriarch Han Yuchi and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had literally abandoned their celestial sect which had stood against numerous celestial enemies for thousands of years.

    The Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian looked a little upset that there were no celestial maidens for him to pluck and he had literally waste hundreds of millions of spirit stones for nothing.

    This was just the cost of the Evil Cultivation Pce alone and theirbined armada of profound ships was just as expensive.

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "Are these celestials such a cowardly lot that they did not dare to fight with my Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled wryly, "They can run but they can''t hide for long. If we can''t find them here, we can find them elsewhere. Let this be the start of our glorious conquest as we turned these celestials into our depraved ves. This is the dawn of a new era and the era of our Evil Cultivation God."

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night hissed, "I wanttt (hiss) the pure yang (hiss) of all the men (hisssss) for myself."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Evil Cultivation God smiled weakly as he looked at Number 2; she used to be such a great beauty before her transformation. Now even he was despising her for her ugly looks and he had refused to dual cultivate with this monster.

    But he said nonchntly to Number 2, "Very well. Just have your picks with the celestial men that we are able to capture¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God was then looking quite pleased with himself and the absolute power that he now posssessed; he now had the profound might of the Great Demon God and he was even stronger than his old peak by several leagues!

    This had to do with the Evil Veins that he now possessed.

    For that, he had to do several experiments by choosing cultivators with a special constitution outside the Deste Celestial Fraternity. And one of his most sessful experiments was Lin Antian who had now gone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    It was his experiment with the Evil Veins over the thousands of years that he was able to secretly possesed the Evil Veins by, naturally, absorbing all the other cultivators with the Evil Veins'' Bloodline.

    The reason why he did not kill Lin Antian was that he was an absolute evil cultivator and a genius among geniuses; he had found out who the Evil Cultivator Master was but instead of being shocked, he even begged the Evil Cultivator Master to grant him more knowledge about the various immortal profound arts and therefore he had be his the ''secret protege''.

    The Evil Cultivation God now had the intention to make Lin Antian the new expedition leader of the Evil Cultivation Pce and his celestial fraternity his second target of dominion after the Deste Celestial Fraternity...

    All of a sudden his thoughts were interrupted by an evil cultivator elder that had nervously entered the hall.

    "Great Evil Cultivation God. The profound power sources of the Evil Cultivation Pce are running a little low. I will like to suggest that we stop in the rich spiritual mountains of the Celestial Orthodox Sect for a refuel by searching the mines of the Celestial Orthodox Sect for more spirit stones."

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned coldly, "I have billions of spirit stones. What happen to them?"

    The evil cultivation elder nervously said, "The immortal power source of the Evil Cultivation Pce runs less efficient on spirit stones than spirit jades or immortal jades. So, it requires much more spirit stones than we have expected to fly the enormous Evil Cultivation Pce at full speed. Moreover, you have instructed us to keep the immortal profound shields of the Evil Cultivation Pce up at all times in case our enemies have dare to attack us as you don''t wish to see a single scratch on your beloved Evil Cultivation Pce."

    The Evil Cultivation God shouted angrily, "You are an idiot! Disable the profound shields immediately! Can''t you see that we have no enemies for hundreds of miles? Fools! Idiots!"

    The evil cultivation elder muttered weakly, "Yes, yes. But should we go to the mines first then?"

    The Evil Cultivation God said angrily, "You really think that we are too free in our time as to spend our precious time in the mines? Just how much spirit stones can we obtain from the mines in such a short period of time?"

    He paused to say coldly, "Get all our allies to donate all their spirit stones to the Evil Cultivation Pce instead. This is the fastest way."

    The evil cultivation elder was startled, "But¡­ they will be unhappy¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God said angrily, "You are really an idiot. Once we have conquered the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity, do we even need to worry about any spirit stones? And our allies are too happy to split the Deste Celestial Fraternity for themselves to reign. Hurry and do as I''ve said. Do you need me to think for you?"

    The evil cultivation elder weakly said, "Yes, yes¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled at the Evil Cultivation God, "Calm down first. Our cultivators can''t think without you as their True God."

    The Evil Cultivation Godughed jovially, "Indeed. Hahahahaha¡­"

    As the evil cultivation elder left the main hall, he was shaking his head with a heavy sigh.

    When the Great Demon God was around, he could rein in the impatient temperament of the Evil Cultivation Master.

    But when the Evil Cultivation Master had be the Evil Cultivation God, he had started to look down on his enemies and he was ruling by fear instead.

    This evil cultivation elder was thinking: Can''t he see that we could be in trouble once most of the powerful golden celestials have returned from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?

    He had pointed it out to the Evil Cultivation God but the Evil Cultivation God had called him an idiot for suggesting the impossible, "Idiot! We are immortals here. Who can contest with our might? Moreover, I have a past dealing with the Great Death God Mingwang and he is probably just too d to join me for disposing the Great Demon God for him."

    Although the Evil Cultivation God may actually be right since most of the celestials are not able to contest with the might of the Evil Cultivation Pce but this evil cultivation elder was still a little worried.

    He was worried that the celestials from the different celestial fraternities may band together once they have realized that the Evil Cultivation Pce posed a serious threat to them. Together, they are a force to be reckoned with.

    Also, many of these celestials may have returned from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with their own lucky urrences, cheats, profound treasures and secret profound arts. What''s more, they will also be much stronger in fighting against the other celestials and deste monsters in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well.

    He was one of the few elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce that know that Ji Yuan has the Goddess Tear and he may pose to be a future threat to the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    However, the Evil Cultivation God was not worried since he was so much stronger than the celestials and he believes that the celestials would rather surrender than to fight to the death, hencing losing all their years of painstaking cultivation and life life.

 Chapter 758 Wedding Bells In The Great Beyond (1)

    ?

    Today there were all kinds of auspicious signs in this part of the Great Beyond Realm, from golden clouds, beautiful rainbows, the songs of the spirit birds to various signs of the heavens and the earth.

    It was because the Great Beyond Goddess had willed it to be so for today was the nuptial knots of two of her beloved disciples, Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    As soon as she had exited her short seclusion, she had dered that her two disciples tied the nuptial knots immediately.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing were stunned by her deration as they thought that they would need to prepare for at least 100 years.

    "Immediately?"

    "Great mistress, this is too quick¡­"

    "We need more time to prepare¡­"

    "Surely there is no need to rush for this, right?"

    "Maybe we aren''t fully to bemitted as a dual cultivator yet¡­"

    But the two of them had no other choice because this was the will of their great mistress, the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Especially when she likes to say, "My decision is final."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was smiling when she saw them clothed in their wedding nuptial clothes as they turned up in the hall of her white pce.

    Today she was going to preside over the first wedding of these two God Immortals in this ce.

    When she saw them, she was dreamily smiling; it was because this reminded her of the time when she had ordered Ji Yuan to get married immediately to Shangguan Yan.

    But Ji Yuan who was known as Yuan Ji at that time had refused her.

    She had said:

    "Yuan Ji, when you take over Hai Sheng''s residence, you must also take good care of Shangguan Yan. She is a lonely widow now."

    Yuan Ji had replied awkwardly, "This is for sure."

    "Good. Then you shall take her as your little concubine."

    Yuan Ji was stunned, "What? This is impossible. I can''t do it."

    But when all 3 of her elders at the Emperor Hall Sect were all rushing to take Shangguan Yan as their little concubine, Yuan Ji was shocked when these three elders were all seizing the chance to take Shangguan Yan.

    Tang Ao was smiling lecherously, "If Elder Yuan Ji doesn''t want to take care of her, I''m willing to do so. Why don''t Pce Mistress gives her to me?"

    Deng Qiu was also smiling, "I am also willing to take care of Shangguan Yan."

    Li Qiangughed, "I am the most willing."

    Shangguan Yan was really an enticing quiet beauty and the three elders were now filled with lusts that they could have her. Since Yuan Ji did not want her then they would be the kind soul to take her in instead!

    So, Yuan Ji said loudly instead. "Who says that I''m not willing to take care of Shangguan Yan? I only say that this is impossible for me to take her as my little concubine but I never say I won''t take her to be my main consort. She doesn''t deserve to be a concubine to anyone. I shall grant her a proper status instead."

    So she said to him, "So be it then. She shall be your consort proper. I''ve a little surprise for you."

    "Surprise? What surprise?" Yuan Ji had asked curiously.

    She had chuckled softly and said to him. "You will only know on your wedding day."

    Yuan Ji hadughed. "That won''t be so soon."

    She had chuckled, "You will actually know it very soon. I will help you to host your wedding tomorrow."

    Yuan Ji: ¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess must admit that she was a little stunned by him that day and that she had screwed up her own chances to be Ji Yuan''s main consort when she was Xia Jiaqing.

    But that was in the past.

    She never has the chance anymore because Xia Jiajia as she was known to him, was now ''dead''.

    When she was a celestial aka Saintess Fang Zhenfei in the Celestial Realm, since she was little, she had always enjoyed the looking at the weddings of the celestials and were fascinated by it.

    She could not exin the reason why, especially when she never had the intention to find a cultivation partner due to her icy heart nature and no men had ever impressed her so. But she just enjoyed the bliss and the warmth of the happy couples during their nuptial ties.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was now looking with a faint smile at Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing when she was recalling the past. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Old Reverend Beiyuan however was looking bitterly; it was because he had to listen to his junior sister from now onward and technically, he would be losing his freedom.

    But he did not dare to tell the Great Beyond Goddess that he had cheated with his junior sister and they got help from a Ji Yuan that helped them to escape from the Goddess Star Pce.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing also did not dare to tell the Great Beyond Goddess about their misdeeds because she did not want to be sent back to the Goddess Star Pce again or even worst punishments.

    Therefore, the two of them decided not to make the truth.

    Now they were not lying since they cannot tell a lie but they were simply not telling the whole truth.

    The God Immortals are a little different from the other races; they cannot lie and have no concept of lusts or even emotional attachments. They represented the highest divinity in which a cultivator must strive in order to have an immortal life or bing a True Divinity.

    That was why Old Reverend Beiyuan had no idea if he wants to be with Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing for the rest of his life even though she is such a beautiful maiden.

    However, their bonds were actually much stronger than the other disciples, even though they were constant arguing with each other.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing on the other hand, was actually quite fond of this senior brother of hers but she had no idea if he feels the same about her. She did not know if this was actually because she likes him or love him since she was emotionally cold like most of the few remnants of her race.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was now imagining that today was the wedding that was between her and Ji Yuan instead and this must be the most blissful day of their lives.

    She had no way of descending to the lower realms to be with Ji Yuan; it was because she cannot interfere in the affairs of the lower realm.

    The Bnce is the Great Beyond Goddess and the Great Beyond Goddess is the Bnce of the Six Empyrean Realms.

    That was why she had formed the Goddess Tear to give the races of the lower realm a hope and the Goddess Tear can only manifest and help the righteous.

    Her Avatar Dream Mist was not supposed to be in the Celestial Realm but a divine child which was actually Yun Chi''s unborn daughter had awakened her through the Goddess Tear Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Andter she had chosen to interfere by aiding Ji Yuan and Yun Chi to destroy a powerful immortal array that hosted the powerful divine swords of the Great Demon God, the Deste Dragon God and the Death God Mingwang.

    By intervening, Dream Mist was then forced to return to the Great Beyond to be united with her host body as the damage was too great to her.

    Also, Dream Mist had shared the same soul sea as Ji Yuan and that was why she was able to use her profound power.

    In the first ce, this was already considered to be a miracle that her Avatar could actually walk with Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she could anchor herself in Ji Yuan''s soul sea through the Goddess Tear when Yun Chi''s divine daughter had first awakened.

    However, the real Great Beyond Goddess was a higher power and she could not easily descend upon the lower realms or else she would not have reincarnated herself through the endless Seas of Samsara just to look for the Boundless Sovereign Demon God aka the True Devil God.

    She was quite sorrowful that she would be standing to aid Ji Yuan anymore in his fight anymore and twice in a row, she had lost her destiny with him.

    There were so much, so much that she wanted to say to him but she was powerless to do so.

    But now, looking at this pair of blissful couple in front of her, she had a small constion.

    So she said with a faint smile, "Beiyuan, Yuexing. I shall unite the two of you as one. From on onward, you are one unison. As promised, I shall grant you a fitting profound artefact¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess could only smile weakly at each other when the Great Beyond Goddess had proimed them as a pair of cultivation partner but they were immediately smiling with delight when their great mistress was granting them a profound artefact.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was also smiling when she saw that that they were smiling blissfully so she smiled, "Beiyuan, show me your Golden Natal Divine Pearl. I am going to split it into two halves to weave my profound power into it. In this way, the two of you may have a lucky urrence to reach the 11th True Divinity."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan almost fainted on the spot, along with Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing; it was because Old Reverend Beiyuan had already given the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to his new disciple Ji Yuan¡­

    2. I always want to tell the missing canon link between Lin Antian and the Evil Cultivation Master/God. But I keep forgetting even though I''ve mentioned it in the Author Note. I''ve forgotten again in thest chapter and inserted the edit now. For privilege readers, this is the missing part for thest chapter.

    The Evil Cultivation God was then looking quite pleased with himself and the absolute power that he now posssessed; he now had the profound might of the Great Demon God and he was even stronger than his old peak by several leagues!

    This had to do with the Evil Veins that he now possessed.

    For that, he had to do several experiments by choosing cultivators with a special constitution outside the Deste Celestial Fraternity. And one of his most sessful experiments was Lin Antian who had now gone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    It was his experiment with the Evil Veins over the thousands of years that he was able to secretly possesed the Evil Veins by, naturally, absorbing all the other cultivators with the Evil Veins'' Bloodline.

    The reason why he did not kill Lin Antian was that he was an absolute evil cultivator and a genius among geniuses; he had found out who the Evil Cultivator Master was but instead of being shocked, he even begged the Evil Cultivator Master to grant him more knowledge about the various immortal profound arts and therefore he had be his the ''secret protege''.

    The Evil Cultivation God now had the intention to make Lin Antian the new expedition leader of the Evil Cultivation Pce and his celestial fraternity his second target of dominion after the Deste Celestial Fraternity...

    ?

    The Great Beyond Goddess said with a faint smile, "Beiyuan, show me your Golden Natal Divine Pearl. I am going to split it into two halves to weave my profound power into it. In this way, the two of you may have a lucky urrence to reach the 11th True Divinity."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan quickly said, "Great mistress, this is unnecessary. Hohohoho. It is only a matter of time before I can reach the 11th True Divinity. Moreover, there isn''t a real threat in the entire Six Realms that can upset us¡­"

    "You don''t want to but this doesn''t mean my dear Yuexing is not going for the 11th True Divinity." The Great Beyond Goddess interrupted him.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing smiled, "Senior Brother Beiyuan is right. It is totally unnecessary."

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed weakly, "Or maybe great mistress, you can use another profound treasure to rece this? Hohohoho."

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly turned to say coldly, "Beiyuan and Yuexing, you are disobeying my will?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had quickly bowed down to the floor and they were saying weakly, "Great mistress, we dare not¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued to say coldly, "You have been dishonest with me. Out with it or feel my wrath. Do you really think that I am such a fool?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was trembling with fear as he tried to say bravely, "Great¡­mistress, erm¡­ it is not that I am unwilling. I just don''t have the Golden Natal Divine Pearl with me anymore."

    The Great Beyond Goddess: ¡­

    "How dare you lose the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that I''ve given you!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan banged his head hard on the ground, causing a loud and several great profound disturbances that shook the entire hall, "Great mistress, I naturally dare not lose your Golden Natal Divine Pearl¡­ erm¡­."

    "Say it fast." The Great Beyond Goddess said impatiently and she had lost her usual calm demeanor.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan blurt out with a frightened look, "Erm, that is because I''ve epted a disciple when I was at the Goddess Star Pce and I have given it to him."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was trembling, "You have given away a True Divinity profound artefact to your new disciple? Did you even ask me in the first ce?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan knew that he was now in deep trouble and he was trembling with fear but he took a look at Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as he said to her. "Junior Sister Yuexing, I will surely be pulverized today. I didn''t expect that our wedding day will also be my funeral day and you will soon be a widow. This is all my fault and I shall admit all wrongdoings. Farwell my Junior Sister Yuexing¡­"

    Actually he had meant that he would be pulverized, it was not to say that he would be destroyed into nothingness or killed but beaten up. One thing for sure, the Great Beyond Goddess would never kill one of her own, especially when Old Reverend Beiyuan was her beloved disciple.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing quickly stopped him and she was holding his hands firmly, "Senior Brother Beiyuan, it is also my fault for hiding this from our great mistress. I am willing to shoulder this with you together. Maybe our great mistress won''t send you to the Great Void."

    The Great Beyond Goddess coolly said, "I won''t pulverize you or send you to the Great Void. I''ll just send you to the Seas of Samsara to be reincarnated again."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan nearly fainted and he was stammering fearfully, "Can I choose to go to the Great Void instead"

    The Great Beyond Goddess inhaled deeply before she turned to ask solemnly, "Who is this new disciple of yours? Why did you ept a new disciple without my permission? Do you know that you are a True Divinity in the Great Beyond and you are not allowed to ept a disciple easily? What if he has a bad character and is a viin? And you have given the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to aid his cultivation?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was stammering, "He has helped us to ovee the trials of the Goddess Star Pce and have helped the two of us to escape from that ce. So that is why I have made him my new disciple¡­"

    Actually, the reason was because he wanted to be a genius of this ''Genius'' Ji Yuan. Then he can be considered the true Genius of all the Geniuses.

    "Escape?" The Great Beyond Goddess was in disbelief. "That ce is not your prison but a ce for you to cultivate to a higher cultivation. Without the two of you there now, possibly many celestials will have to die in the future because you are not there to protect them from the dangers of their trial. You call that a prison? I am going to send the two of you back there now¡­"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was actually in great relief. Going back to the Goddess Star Pce now seemed like a light punishmentpared to being pulverized, the Great Void or to the Seas of Samsara.

    All of a sudden, the Great Beyond Goddess had a look of perplexed on her beautiful countenance, "Your new disciple is able to ovee the trials in the Goddess Star Pce? What is his name?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan quickly said with a terrified look, "He is talkative cultivator named Ji Yuan, the lowest ant of all the ants. I have a chanced encounter with him and saw that he has the Goddess'' Tear. And that is why I have invited him to the Goddess Star Pce¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess was gasping softly and her misty beautiful eyes were suddenly bleary, "Ji Yuan? Did you say that his name is Ji Yuan?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan answered nervously, "Indeed. His name is Ji Yuan and his name sounds like he is going to game over anytime¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Can you track him?" The Great Beyond Goddess asked him with another gasp as she started to stand up from her seat.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was even more frightened when he saw that his great mistress had got up from her seat so he quickly said, "Don''t worry, great mistress. I have nted my profound signature in his soul sea so I can easily track him across the great emptiness of space. Even at a terrible cost to my cultivation attainment, I will send a powerful divine lightning cmity upon him and to kill him for you. Once he is dead, the Golden Natal Divine Pearl will naturally fly back to me¡­."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was in great shock, "You want to kill your new disciple?!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had misunderstood her and he answered loudly, "I am totally willing to kill my new disciple. Not just kill him. I will also let him die a most horrible death."

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was shaking her head, "This poor Ji Yuan. He won''t even know why he has to die¡­ because it is due to a terrible mistake that we havemitted."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was actually ted in her heart when she had learnt that Old Reverend Beiyuan''s new disciple was Ji Yuan and that he has a way to track him.

    No wonder his new disciple was able to solve the trials of the Goddess Star Pce, because Ji Yuan is the True Devil God himself and he can see the imageries that she had put inside the Goddess Star Pce.

    However, her tedness soon turned to horror when Old Reverend Beiyuan had wanted to kill Ji Yuan.

    So she had stood up with a look of horror and shock as she stared coldly at Old Reverend Beiyuan, "How dare you try to kill your new disciple Ji Yuan?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had no idea what the sudden outburst was about, so he said timidly. "Erm, torture him so that he will feels that it is worse than death?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess nearly fainted when she had heard him as she walked in front of Old Reverend Beiyuan, "Don''t you dare to do anything funny to him. He is your new disciple and also my grand disciple, do you get me?"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan answered weakly, "Erm¡­"

    He was lostpletely and he did not know what the Great Beyond Goddess actually wanted him to do now.

    Maybe his great mistress wanted him to cripple his cultivation as a punishment instead? To a cultivator, nothing is worse than being unable to cultivate and to grow old at a rapid age...

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was also looking a little lost as she could not tell from the moods of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    She was thinking that maybe her great mistress is being merciful and she did not want to kill her grand disciple, so she is going to send this Ji Yuan to the Great Void for an eternity instead.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly smiling behind her veil as she smiled to Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Firstly, we have toplete your wedding. Secondly, tell me all you know about Ji Yuan in the Goddess Star Pce."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan, Grand Holy Saintess: ???

    Old Reverend Beiyuan asked curiously, "Great mistress. Erm, I am still going ahead with the wedding? What is my punishment then?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess smiled, "Punish you? For? This is the best thing that you have ever done in your entire long life."

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was frowning, "In my entire long life? Best thing? Surely not. I did a lot of best things in my life¡­ like peeping behind the veil of great mistress and seeing your peerless looks¡­"

    As a God Immortal, Old Reverend Beiyuan naturally could not lie that epting Ji Yuan as his disciple was the best thing that he had ever done. He had already made up his mind on the best things that he had ever done in his entire long life.

    Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had suddenly punched Old Reverend Beiyuan with a look of great horror, "You are going to be dead soon, Senior Brother Beiyuan¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess had also grown stiff before she coldly said. "Beiyuan. You have a lot of exnations to do today."

 Chapter 760 The Decadent Divine Lords

    ?

    In the new hideout of the rebel resistance.

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong as well as the new Great Rebel Leader had suddenly summoned all the rebels to the main hall.

    Elder Xie Tianzun and the 4 remaining rebel leaders were naturally there as well plus 3000 of the rebels from all over the secret hideouts in Snowy Pavilion City.

    Also here today were the 100 rebel leaders and their men from the other city-states as well.

    Everyone was chatting nonstop to discussion the reason as why the Immortal Divine Lord had summoned all of them.

    Many of the rebels were looking excited; it was because it may be the time to fight back against the divine consorts and their great rebel leader shall be the new divine lord of Snowy Pavilion City.

    By now, all the rebels in Snowy Pavilion City as well as the rebels in the other cities knew that they had an Immortal Divine Lord as their Great Rebel Leader and they had a clear advantage over the divine consorts now.

    Many were discussing ns to first take over Snowy Pavilion City and then they shall take over the rest of the 11 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    However, there were many that were unhappy because they were being forced to give up all their maidens to the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    This included Elder Xie Tianzun, naturally since he had the biggest to lose.

    But in the face of this absolute power, all the rebels could only give in and they did not even dare toin.

    Moreover, they were also rebels for a reason and they sought to make all the maidens in Snowy Pavilion City as their maidens. Once this was achieved, they would have nock of any maidens since there were more than 1 million of them just in this city-state alone.

    ordingly, to the new rule of this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, there can be only be one harem and that is his own; all the maidens from the rebels belonged to him alone.

    A few days had already passed since the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had taken over and by now, he should already have his fun with the rebels'' maidens.

    Now the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong must be nning his next move and that was why he had summoned all the rebel leaders from the other cities to this city-state.

    A new era of the male spiritas had finallye and all the rebels were ready to fight against the divine consorts.

    Many of them were already thinking how they should humiliate the 4 divine consorts of the city-state and they were already imagining their hands on them.

    In the powerful presence of their new Great Rebel Leader the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, all 4 divine consorts are definitely not going to stand up against his immortal profound power.

    Now the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had now entered the main hall and he was smiling to everyone, "So everyone is now here?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun immediately greeted the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, "All the leaders of the rebel resistance is here today."

    All the rebels were shouting with vigor, "Your Immortal Divine Lord, we are all here! All hail our resistance. Glory to the True Devil God. May the heydays of the male spiritas be restored!"

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong arrogantly seated himself on a throne seat as he grinned at all the 3000 rebels that were presented.

    He said slowly, "Is that all? We have so little men here?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun quickly said with a smile, "We have naturally more men in the other city-states. But we can''t send them all here or the divine consorts will notice this unusual activity. But all the rebel leaders are here today."

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong nodded, "I see. Alright then."

    Elder Xie Tianzun smiled, "We are now waiting for the instructions of the Immortal Divine Lord to take over the city-state. I''d suggest that we attack Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er first. She is the weakest among all the divine consorts. With some luck, she may even be alone and without her followers."

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong hummed coldly, "Do I even need to choose the weakest divine consort as my target? Even the strongest divine consort isn''t my match. Even with all 4 of the divine consortsbined, they are just like flies in my eyes."

    Elder Xie Tianzun began to smile awkwardly, "Yes, yes. Your Immortal Divine Lord is right."

    He should not even have suggested what he had just said; their Immortal Divine Lord was invincible in Snowy Pavilion City and even the entire Spirit Divine Realm.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    There was another reason why the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had been cold to the suggestion. It was because he had a special restriction that prevented him from acting against the divine consorts. His purpose was never to overthrown the divine consorts or he would be killed by his masters.

    Of course, he had no intention of ever telling these stupid impure rebels.

    He saw that many of these male rebels even have beards and hairy legs. This was a legacy of their human blood. The pure male spiritas is very beautiful and have no facial or leg hairs.

    And as a pure blood male spiritas, Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was actually despising them in his heart.

    His thoughts were interrupted by Elder Xie Tianzun, "Your Immortal Divine Lord, erm¡­ what is your divine instructions for us in this meeting?"

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong smiled as he raised his profound voice, "Haha! Naturally it is something really important."

    Everyone was excited and was even feeling a little delighted immediately, thinking of how they could make the 4 divine consorts as their depraved female ves.

    Today the glory of the male spiritas would finally being itseback!

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong smiled as he said slowly, "I want all the beardless man to stand to one side and I want to inspect all of you one by one. As for the rest, you are all dismissed."

    All the rebels were now blinking their eyes and were puzzled over this weird instruction. In fact, there wasrgemotions among the rebels.

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong said slowly, "Do I need to repeat myself?"

    Then he exined coldly, "I am taking all the beautiful men into my harem."

    When the rebels had heard him, they were all in great shock¡­

    "What?!"

    "Our Immortal Divine Lord is taking the men into his harem?!"

    "I''ve heard that this is actually an old spiritas tradition¡­"

    "It is an honor in the past for the men to be picked into the harem of the divine lords¡­"

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rongmanded, "All the bearded men, leave the ce now!"

    The rebels had no choice but to obey hismands and about half of them were actually quite relieved to be leaving the main hall.

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had suddenly touched the chin of the Elder Xie Tianzun and he coolly said, "Not bad. You have no beard and is also quite beautiful. You may stay to serve me as my personal male harlot."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked beyond words, "This, this¡­"

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was starting to miss his malepanions after having fun with the maidens. After all, after he had ascended to the Greater Divine Realm, there were only the other male divine lords and no females for them to have fun with one another.

    Moreover having a male harlot was also one of their main spiritas traditions, so this was nothing unusual to him.

    In the ancient spiritas society of the divine lords, the males are the embodiments of strength, vigor and other masculine attributes. Only the males have any status in a spiritas society and the males often dominate another males with their masculine attributes by making the lesser males into their male harlots.

    Today, he felt really masculine because in the Greater Spirit Realm, he was the one that was being dominated by the other males.

 Chapter 761 A Well-Rested Ji Yuan

    ?

    Spirit Divine Realm, in the city-state of the Snowy Pavilion City.

    Ji Yuan had taken 5 days to cultivate back all his profound strength. It was a rtive short period of time since he was not injured and also the spiritual aura here was much stronger than the Celestial Realm and even the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Both Xiang Li and Anyang were excited to see that Ji Yuan had finally finished with his cultivation.

    "My lord, you are back already!"

    "Big Brother, you are finally done with your meditation!"

    Ji Yuan chucked aloud, "I have never felt so alive. Haha¡­ it seems that I''ve also gained a little attainment in my cultivation as well."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "But Big Brother, aren''t you a peaked great saint now? Your cultivation is still able to improve?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are really the noob in cultivation. Without me, how do you expect to even survive to the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? I don''t think my Elder Li Ye or Brother Guo Taiming is able to do so as well."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, you have forgotten that I am a spirit entity. I don''t need to cultivate myself."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I feel that I am a fool to exin it to a spirit entity like you. It is no wonder that you can''t help me to cheat in the cultivation examination trial a while back ago. Let me exin again¡­"

    "We have seven divinities in our cultivation realms; Practitioner, Master Practitioner, Enlighten Celestial, Immortal Celestial, Golden Celestial, Golden Supremacy and Sacred Saint¡­"

    "And the Sacred Saint divinity itself is further divided into a holy saint and the great saint cultivation realm. In order to be a great saint, you need to ovee your lightning tribtion at the middle sacred saint stage of divinity first. More on this soon¡­"

    "Now every divinity itself we have 4 main divine stages or tiers; initial or lower, middle, upper and peaked¡­"

    "Every stages or tiers, we have 4 steps; half-step, mortal-step, earth-step and the heaven-step¡­"

    "Now if you are at the half-step of an initial sacred saint, it also means that you are just a half-step saint because you haven''t fully be a holy saint of the initial stage yet. For that you need to reach the mortal-step first, which is crucial to stabilize the current state of divinity¡­"

    "And every step, it is further divided into 4 essences¡­"

    "The steps are further divided into the 4 essences of Body, Spirit, Soul, Mind in which every essence has 10 levels¡­"

    "I feel an improvement in my essence cultivation. Got it?"

    Xiang Li looked sheepish as she giggled, "But Big Brother. Your Xiang Li don''t need to know about the other divinities. This is tooplex. When I know you, you''re already a saint! Then middle saint. And we have ovee the lightning tribtion together and you have be a great saint. Now you are a peaked great saint. Heehee!"

    Ji Yuan righteously pointed out, "This is a wrong mindset! You have to learn! For a genius like me, I am striving for all my essence to be level 10¡­"

    "Also," he grinned. "If you don''t know about this then you don''t know why in all the cultivation stories, a lower realm MC is able to defeat a higher realm cultivator. That is because they all have this unspeakable cultivation mini-levels that no one is talking about..."

    "Except that, no one knows their exact levels in their essences." Fairy Anyang giggled. "But we all know that our lord''s cultivation is pretty weak in all the areas because we never see him really trying to improve on his cultivations except his lower body."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This was a tight p in his face.

    "Hahaha¡­" Ji Yuan started tough weakly. "I am very sure that my Mind and Soul essence is really high level, right? After all, I am a sword saint that have achieved my sword intentions. Also didn''t Mo Ming says that my soul now is very pure?"

    Fairy Anyang chuckled softly, "Maybe."

    Xiang Li giggled, "But Big Brother, I do read cultivation stories. I am a Trial Spirit in charge of the trials and many of the cultivators had dropped their cultivation books in my ce. Since I am bored, I read those."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Now that''s my good Xiang Li..."

    Xiang Li interrupted with a chuckle, "But in all the cultivation stories, it keeps talking about the disparity a cultivation realm is from another and how impossible it is for them to win. Yet the MC keeps winning despite having a much lower cultivation realm due to ''cheats''. And then, they never meet anyone in the entire realm that can ever defeat defeat or kill them and the cultivation realm is so conveniently adjusted for them from the lowest and keep increasing at the higher levels. That is why I so love Big Brother."

    Ji Yuan asked with a frown, "What does loving me got to do with the cultivation stories that you''ve read?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "When I know Big Brother, you''re already at the 7th sacred saint cultivation realm and you are still at the 7th sacred saint cultivation realm now."

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Ji Yuan: ...

    He quickly said with a heavy sigh, "None of you here are real cultivators here. You can''t understand the pains of cultivating for thousands of years just to have the chance to ascend to the Immortal Realm. Why did I have to give the immortal ascending profound pill to my old man¡­ with that profound pill, I can bezy for the rest of my celestial life and still ascend¡­"

    Fairy Anyang had suddenly asked shyly as she interrupted Ji Yuan, "My lord. Erm, do you think that you can allow me to pick 1 more spirit dress? Please?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Only 1 more? You can have 3 more. Haha¡­ this your reward for cultivating so hard. Maybe it is also due to my Anyang that I have seen an improvement in my cultivation."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Fairy Anyang was absolutely delighted and she was smiling beautifully, "Thank you, my lord! I''ll work even harder in the future!"

    Time to spend more time on picking her 3 spirit dresses!

    Xiang Li looked sheepishly at Anyang; she knows that Anyang had been spending her time choosing her spirit dress rather than cultivating the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    But then, she had no right to expose Anyang since she was toozy to cultivate with the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    Maybe it is better for her Big Brother to cultivate it himself since he says he is the real cultivator.

    Actually, it was not because Xiang Li and Anyang did not want to cultivate on the Golden Natal Divine Pearl; it was just that this was an immortal profound treasure and they did not see any immediate effect when they were cultivating on it.

    Cultivation is truly slow and often takes a long time; it is not unusual for a cultivator to enter into seclusion for hundreds of years or even thousands of years with a powerful profound treasure.

    -

    When he had exited his short cultivation retreat, he went down to look for Maiden Flower Ju with a grin, "Is my Brother Xiao Muhan back already?"

    Maiden Flower Ju was delighted to see him but she shook her head to his question, "Not yet. But Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had sent word that he will be back tonight."

    Ji Yuan was frowning all of a sudden: What the heck?! 5 Days?! Is he banging Divine Consort Sun Dingjun or what?!

    Then he asked another question: Is Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei back yet?

    Maiden Flower Ju shook her head, "My mistress is still not back yet."

    Ji Yuan was also startled by this reply.

    Then he asked another question in an awkward manner, "I wonder if erm¡­ Divine Consort Tang Manni has been here in the past 5 days to look for me?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled at his question, "No. She didn''te at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He thought weakly to himself: I guess that I have to have a thick face and to go to her vi¡­ hopefully she doesn''t drive me out like thest time. But what excuse should I use this time?

    He was still thinking of asking her if he can be her champion. But he had somewhat screwed himself into a dead end and she was the only divine consort that he could ask now.

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, maybe you can pretend that you are dying? She will soften her heart for you for sure.

    Ji Yuan said weakly to Xiang Li: I am a celestial and a great saint. Will I die so easily for no apparent reasons?

    But he said aloud to Maiden Flower Ju, "Haha, I am going out now. See you soon."

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Good luck on seeing Divine Consort Tang Manni."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He asked weakly, "How do you know that I am going to look for her?"

    Maiden Flower Ju chucked with a shy look, "Master Ji Yuan, it is all written all over your face."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 762 JY, Be My Male Harlot Or Die!

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now walking in the streets of the Snowy Pavilion City and he intended to make another visit to Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Hopefully that he had better luck today¡­

    Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li, "You know. I have better luck in finding the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth than in asking Divine Consort Tang Manni to be her champion."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Are you serious, Big Brother? It should be the opposite. You don''t even have a clue to where the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth really is in the final trial."

    Ji Yuan began to frown immediately, "I do actually."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "Then tell me where it is." Xiang Li challenged him.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t want to tell you because I don''t like to draw conclusions before I am ready."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Then Big Brother is lying. Heehee."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "I am not. We have already seen it."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Where?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Secret for now. I''ll let you know once I figure out a few things first."

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    She hummed with disbelief, "Well, you can''t find it. No one has ever found the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the past thousands of years."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly walked past an inn and he could see from the outside that a dozen men were drinking in this ce.

    He was quite startled that this ce had outrageous prices and that was why there were almost no one except for the 12 men inside, which was rather odd to him.

    It was because there were no maidens in this ce and instead, there were only men. Now this was an oddity.

    He saw a beautiful beardless man drinking alone on a table and this beautiful man was actually looking with interest at him.

    Ji Yuan was startled and wondered if he was a celestial?

    But he quickly dismissed this thought when he saw that he had no ck ring on him.

    Ji Yuan saw that the other 11 men were looking nervously in his direction and some of them even had murderous look in their eyes.

    Now this was not a surprise to Ji Yuan especially when he had recognized 3 of these men as a rebel that he had previously seen in the rebel resistance hideout.

    All 11 men seemed to be pretending not to know one another.

    Ji Yuan thought with a weak smile: I am in a busy street. Surely, they won''t dare to be so reckless as to fight me. I just pretend that I didn''t see them and quickly go off from here.

    He was not here to fight with anyone and he was eager to visit Divine Consort Tang Manni so he hastened his steps to walk away.

    But all of a sudden, this beautiful beardless man had shed in front of him and was smiling. "You are Yuan Ji?"

    Ji Yuan frowned; this was the name that he had used when he was made the great rebel leader.

    He answered nonchntly, "You got the wrong man. I''m Ji Yuan and not Yuan Ji. And I don''t know you. Please excuse me. I am a little busy today."

    The beautiful beardless man: ¡­

    "I am Kong Rong, the new Great Rebel Leader." The beautiful beardless man was suddenly smiling. "I didn''t really want to kill you for sports but they told me that you are their traitorous ex-Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji. Since you are so unlucky to meet me here today, I''ve no choice but to take action against you¡­"

    He caused briefly to raise two fingers up, "One, submit to me as my male harlot. Two, die in this ce."

    This beautiful beardless man was indeed Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong!

    And he was adding with a wry smile, "Believe me. I can kill you with my mere fingers."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly roared with an outburst ofughter and many of the people in the streets were looking in his direction.

    "Haha¡­ Haha¡­ what did you say? You can kill me with your mere fingers? And submit to you as¡­ what? Haha¡­ your male harlot? This must be the funniest thing that I''ve ever heard¡­ Haha¡­ I really don''t have that type of interest you know. Hahahaha¡­"

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had suddenly raised his fingers to flicker at Ji Yuan''s head and a suddenly burst of profound power had sped past his fingers.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly evaded his head with a sudden shock and the spirit water melon behind him had suddenly exploded by the speeding profound power!

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was actually quite surprised that there was actually a cultivator that could evade his point-nk attack.

    Ji Yuan was stunned when the spirit water melon had exploded behind him and he gasped, "8th immortal profound power with such a flicker of his fingers. He isn''t lying about his strength¡­"

    He quickly tumbled backward in a hurry and had summoned his immortal scabbard in front of him before shouting, "Who are you?!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Who am I? Hahahaha. Isn''t this toote to know now. I am Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong." The beautiful beardless man promptly announced.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong frowned when he saw that Ji Yuan had an immortal scabbard, "I didn''t expect that you have an immortal scabbard with you. But what is the use of that? You can''t kill me with a scabbard."

    And he had suddenly burst forth his powerful profound aura and it was ck with an outline of gold around him.

    All the onlookers were suddenly screaming in fright and were running away.

    "Isn''t this the divine aura of a divine lord?"

    "He is an 8th Spirit Realm Immortal Divine Lord? Look at the fierceness of his profound aura¡­"

    "Profound darkness! Run everyone¡­ he is wrapped in profound darkness¡­"

    "Inform the divine consorts quickly¡­"

    The hundreds of people that crowded the street, mostly maidens were all running away with great fear in their eyes.

    But there were only 2 beautiful men that remained unmoved from where they were; they were the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan felt his legs trembling under the intense pressure of his opponent''s profound aura. He was soon forced to muster his spirit animus which formed into the Immortal Deste Cherubim to lift the intense pressure off from him.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was frowning lightly, "You have a spirit animus that can temporarily grant you the profound power of the 8th immortal positioning. Now, this is really interesting and not too boring for me anymore. It is worth a fight¡­"

    When he had said that, a dark spirit animus that was shaped like gigantic Asura Demon with six arms had rose up from his dark profound aura.

    And he was soon smiling coldly, "You don''t think that your 7th cultivation realm can be a match for a true 8th cultivation strength immortal, do you?"

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded at the huge Asura Demon towering over him and he was suddenly being forced to slide backward by the increased intense pressure.

    Also, he could not believe that this new enemy was able tobined the profound strength of both his profound aura and spirit animus together.

    Usually, profound aura will only protect the cultivator and not the spirit animus. But this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was able to protect even his spirit animus with his profound aura.

    This was the true profound strength of an immortal spirit cultivator?!

    Why was he so unlucky to meet an immortal just by walking in the street? This was simply illogical!

    The Asura Demon was suddenly swinging its six arms and punching at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was so shocked as he quickly raised his immortal scabbard to block off the attack but he was also sent flying backward by the huge disparity of profound power that was between them and it was twice as much.

    Now Ji Yuan had the profound power of a peaked 8th immortal positioning due to the temporary attributes of his Deste Cherubim that added as a buff on him and he was in disbelief when he was sent flying backward.

    This was the effect of a profound aura and a spirit animus together, a new type of cultivation that Ji Yuan had never seen before.

    He thought that he may just crashed into the walls of the streets and even got his spirit animus dispelled when an alluring melody maiden had suddenly caught hold of him and she was saying to him with her small cherry lips, "Be careful Master Ji Yuan. He has a formidable profound darkness in him."

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that it was Concubine Fairy Xu Yifei.

    Or rather her profound aura around her had indicated that she was at the 7th Spirit Realm and she is a divine consort!

    "Fairy¡­ erm¡­ Divine Consort Xu Yifei, it is you? Howe you are here?" Ji Yuan was startled to see her.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei softly whispered, "I was on my way back to the tavern to look for you. I may have found a cure for you now."

    Then she slowly appraised his spirit animus with her brilliant eyes, "You are really strong, Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he stabbed his scabbard on the ground to stop himself from sliding away as the intense pressure was causing continuous waves of invisible profound shockwaves that originated from the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and threatening to sweep away all the cultivators that could not stand in its way.

    Even Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was holding onto Ji Yuan''s waist with one had and she had weaved a spirit talisman to weaken the shockwaves of intense pressures.

    Ji Yuan could feel her soft fingers on his waist and it was sending a ringing sensation through his body and he was secretly looking at Xu Yifei''s sensual body¡­

    This is too sinful¡­ her body is too sinful¡­

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish; this was not the right time to think about this sort of thing¡­

    When Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei saw Ji Yuan''s sheepish look on her, she was gasping all of a sudden and she quickly let go of his waist; it was because she hadpletely forgotten that Ji Yuan did not like maidens.

    2. In thest chapter there is a small insider joke, Ji Yuan was rebuking Xiang Li about the important of the mainstream cultivation realms and how important the foundation is. In this chapter, he is now at the receiving end of his rebuke when he met a superior immortal cultivator with a better base in the 8th immortal positioning.

 Chapter 763 Ji Yuan Kisses Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei

    ?

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong frowned when he saw that there was a great divine consort that had suddenlye to the aid of Ji Yuan.

    ording to his intel, there was no great divine consort in Snowy Pavilion City. So, who was she?

    So he turned to ask this astonishing breathtaking maiden, "You are a great divine consort. Who are you?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei answered coldly, "I am Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei!"

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was startled: Wait a minute! She is Xu Yifei?! Isn''t she the maiden that my masters ask me to investigate? Howe she is a great divine consort again?"

    Ji Yuan was also startled.

    It was because even though he could tell that Xu Yifei had regained her cultivation to the 7th Spirit Realm but he could gauge her exact cultivation as he was not familiar with the spiritas'' cultivation.

    He gasped, "Great Divine Consort¡­ Xu Yifei¡­"

    Xiang Li was giggling with delight: Big Brother, I told you she is a divine consort and she is actually a great divine consort! But you didn''t listen to me. Did you say something about if Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is a divine consort, then you won''t bang your maidens anymore?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly answered Xiang Li weakly: I say if she is a divine consort but she isn''t. She is a great divine consort, so¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted with a giggle: Lame excuse¡­

    Ji Yuan quickly said: Alright then. I won''t bang anymore but I will screw. Is that good enough?

    Xiang Li asked perplexedly: What the difference in these two words?

    But Ji Yuan purposely pretended not to hear her anymore.

    In the meantime, Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had no wish to damage the precious goods of his masters so he growled, "This is a man-to-man fight and not a 2 to 1 fight. Or unless this man is a real coward?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as held onto his scabbard while the powerful intense pressure was attempting to sweep him away, "Haha. I will be afraid? Impossible! Man to man then¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly interrupted him, "Master Ji Yuan, you are not his match. We need tobine our strength together to fight him. He is an Immortal Divine Lord and he can also wield the profound darkness. The other divine consorts can probably sense his profound darkness and they will soon be here. Together, we have the best chance¡­"

    But Ji Yuan shook his head and said firmly, "It is our man-to-man fight. I hope that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei will be able to understand this. Also, I may not lose to him."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei gasped mncholy, "Why? I really don''t understand why. You don''t know how strong an immortal divine lord of the Greater Spirit Realm is. I can help you¡­"

    Ji Yuan answered nonchntly as he cut her short, "I am a Sword Saint and this is a challenge. As a man, I must fight to protect the maidens. Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, I hope that you can flee as fast as you can and to seek help. I will buy you the time. This I can promise you."

    With that he had pushed her away.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei saw the firmness that were in Ji Yuan''s golden eyes and she was sighing with woeful eyes at him.

    All of a sudden, she had tiptoed gracefully on her foot and she had nted a kiss on Ji Yuan''s face.

    Ji Yuan was gasping all of a sudden¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was suddenly flustered and she had suddenly remembered that she could not be doing this.

    She panicky tried to exin, "Don''t misunderstood me. This is the Spiritas way of wishing a hero good luck inbat¡­"

    This was the truth.

    She was so moved by Ji Yuan''s heroism that she had forgotten that he was a gay and she had tiptoed to kiss him. This was the highest honor a divine consort can give to a champion as well, even though Ji Yuan is not her champion and yet to fight for her honor.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her enticing slender waist and pulled her to him before he bended down to kiss her passionate on her small cherry lips.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was so startled by this sudden kiss that she felt weak and hot at the same time.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And Ji Yuan''s fingers were stroking her butt at the same time too.

    Then she found herself opening her cherry lips and she could feel Ji Yuan''s passionate tongue sticking into her mouth and she was soon kissing him passionately as well.

    Time had suddenly seemed to freeze for the two of them.

    And the 11 rebels were shocked to see that there was a man and maiden kissing passionately in the streets.

    Even the maidens were also shocked and many had stopped fleeing but had paused to take a curious look.

    By now, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s female followers had also reached the scene and they were shocked to see that their mistress was kissing Ji Yuan passionately and Ji Yuan was holding her waist and moving his other hand gentle around her butts as well.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei burst into tears of joy as she grabbed her slender hands around Ji Yuan''s back and neck; she is thinking that Master Ji Yuan is definitely not a gay or he would not have kissed her the way that he is doing right now and moreover, he is also stroking her jade white body too.

    Right now, she could feel the wet and steamy saliva of Ji Yuan''s tongue inside her mouth and she was moaning shyly in return.

    Ji Yuan could feel Xu Yifei''s almost naked bosoms pressing upon him and he was almost wanted to rip off her clothing and to bang her.

    This steamy and passionate kiss should not have happened in the first ce because Ji Yuan was actually thinking of just pulling her to him and return a kiss on her cheeks.

    But somehow, he had slipped by missing his target and ended up kissing her enticing small cherry lips¡­

    Then he had lost control of himself after her almost naked and warm bosoms were pressed upon him.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was infuriated as he suddenly shouted, "What are the two of you doing? Do you think that I am dead? Do you ept my challenge or not?"

    Ji Yuan gently pulled himself from Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei but he continued to look with a flustered look at her coyly look and he saw that she was drooling with his wet saliva.

    There were looks of intense passion in both their eyes as they remained locked together.

    It was also because none of them were expecting that they would be able to survive this fight as well.

    Ji Yuan was not foolhardy to think that he would be able to defeat this powerful immortal divine lord on his own.

    Slowly he turned to the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, "What the hurry? We are just saying our parting ways so that we can fight man to man."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was flustered as she lowered her head shyly; it is because if a man kisses a maiden in her mouth and a maiden returns the kiss, it means that they are actually a couple ording to the old traditions of the spiritas.

    The 11 men that were standing far behind Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong were all secretly hoping that their new great rebel leader would actually lose today.

    It was because this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had grown bored of the beautiful men yesterday and asked the men with beards to shave off their beards so that he could have a better pick of the more masculine and beautiful men in the rebel''s hideout.

    All 11 men were actually the male harlots of this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and they hated him to the core in their hearts.

    They were only spared today when the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had decided that he needed to explore the city for a while.

    Naturally it was because the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had suddenly remembered that he had two missions to aplish; One is to find out what happens to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. Two, he has to find out what is causing the profound darknesspass in the Greater Spirit Realm to have a sudden motion in the lower Spirit Realm. Is their True Devil God going to be back soon?

    If so, then he was prepared to kiss the foot of the True Devil God.

 Chapter 764 The Impossible Fight

    ?

    Ji Yuan whispered gently to enticing but reluctant Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, disying a flustered look at her. "Now leave. I always prefer to fight alone. Go and get help."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei slowly nodded before she shed to where her female followers were and she had lit a golden light that resembled a golden talisman on her right finger in front of her to resist the intense pressure for herself and her left fingers another golden talisman to protect her 8 female followers.

    Ji Yuan was startled: She is staying behind?!

    There was a look of determination in Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s countenance when she saw Ji Yuan''s startled look but she said softly, "I''ll fight after you then."

    Ji Yuan had a sheepish look; it was because she had misunderstood him. He was actually hoping that she would get help for him but because of his manly pride, this would be too awkward to say it straight to her face.

    So, he had to suck his thumb and fight this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong until the other divine consorts would be here to aid him.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong said coldly, "Since you are a sword expert, draw your swords and I will give you an advantage of¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought: Give me an advantage by fighting me with a sword too?

    But Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had said instead, "¡­not fighting you with a sword."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had by now, disyed his two sword spirits on his arms in additional to his deste cherubim spirit animus.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong looked a little surprised, "Two sword spirits as well as a spirit animus? Is this even possible in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan had also shed nine of his divine swords from his pocket spatial space in front of him.

    1 half-step emperor divine sword.

    1 saint-step divine sword.

    1 immortal-step divine sword.

    1 celestial sword.

    5 heaven-step divine swords.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and her 8 female followers were quite startled to see the number of divine swords that were ced in front of Ji Yuan.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was also startled to see that were was even 3 superior divine swords in front of him and there was even a half-step emperor divine sword.

    So, he asked curiously, "You can use all 9 swords? They are your swords?"

    "Not really." Ji Yuan grinned as he opened his immortal scabbard to draw his two emperor divine swords. "Xiang Li, Anyang. Time for the two of you to be useful."

    With the power of this immortal scabbard, Ji Yuan''s two divine swords were able to disy itself as a full-step emperor-sword divine sword while needing the profound might of a saint-step divine sword to wield it.

    But of course, the most crucial thing that he has to do when dual wielding two powerful superior divine swords is that he must depend on his powerful deste cherubim to channel him with the profound power to do so and he got a temporary boast of profound power to the 8th peak immortal realm.

    It was not the same as having a true 8th cultivation realm, which could mean a boast in all areas of cultivations and profound arts. This was a temporary boost to his profound power.

    And he needed this profound power to execute his Grand Cross Sword Profound Art with his double divine swords.

    He had rarely disyed both of his divine swords at the same time, much less his Deste Cherubim spirit animus at the same time.

    But he was now being forced to because his opponent was stronger than any 8th immortal cultivator that he had ever met.

    And Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was still smiling wryly at him while waiting for him to start the duel.

    Ji Yuan knows that for his opponent to be so calm, he must be an opponent that was truly terrifying. So, he had to be calm as well and think fast on how he should start this battle.

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong used to be a great hero when he was in the Spirit Divine Realm tens of thousands of years ago and indeed, he had gone through many great battles by being the first to lead the charge against other heroes of the city-states and the powerful spirit divine monsters of the Spirit Divine Realm.

    In the past, the Spiritas worshipped heroism and the great masculine of man to the extreme. A true man of the Spiritas was the embodiment of courage, heroism and their heroic deeds would be sung by the bards in all the city-states, regardless if they were the enemies or not.

    And they would also have any maidens and men that they fancy except for the elite nobles of their spiritas race.

    Also, in the past, there was a legendary heroes guild called the 300 Spiritas Legendary Heroes. And this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was in it and his renown were legendary.

    He was most renowned for his 12 legendary impossible tasks in the past.

    But unfortunately, it wasrgely forgotten by the female spiritas and his heroic deeds banished in the ancient libraries of the present spiritas race.

    The current female spiritas had no use for any heroes and only heroines of their spiritas race.

    Among the heroines that they had admired was naturally their first divine consort, the Ancient First Divine Consort that had ever since ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm through the spirit power of the Spiritas Tower. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The current spiritas race would never have even guessed that their Ancient First Divine Consort would be a ything of the Six Supreme Divine Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm, including the ything of countless number of immortal divine lords.

    And even Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had yed with her for a couple of times in his long immortal life.

    To him, all the divine consorts including the great divine consorts were all inferior to the Ancient First Divine Consort and they were all his ything.

    As for this Ji Yuan, it was obvious to him that he was an inferior spiritas and he seemed to have a lot more human blood in him.

    And that he seemed to cultivate the inferior celestial path and not the superior spirit path.

    Such a sad state!

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong immediately recalled the glorious days when he had yed 10 of the human''s great sword saints and subjected Tyr, the most powerful of the human city-state and took all their maidens and men.

    Countless royal great cities of the human race like Gomorrah, Sinon, Sinan, Sin, Ai, Jude and many more had all fallen to him as well.

    Moreover, he was now a true immortal of the 8th peaked spirit cultivation realm now and was much stronger than he was in the past, before he had ascended.

    Therefore, he disdained in his heart this sword cultivator Ji Yuan.

    The Spirit Spiritas will never wield a sword for it will hinder their spirit progressions and they considered anyone that uses a weapon to be an inferior and is only fit to be assigned to the great games of the spiritas for their amusements.

    Ji Yuan now said, "So, Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Are you waiting for me to make the first move?"

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was smirking coldly, "Of course. I always give my inferior a chance and only 1 chance. Isn''t it why I have been waiting for you?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ then don''t regret this or beg me for mercyter¡­"

    Without his Endless Fighting Spirit to restraint him now, he was actually thinking of running away if things go south. But Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was here to watch him and it hurts his manly pride to run away.

    If only this was a personal duel instead¡­

    All of a sudden, 4 astonishing beautiful maidens each one of them beautiful in their own ways were suddenly seen flying hastily to the scene and they were startled to see the powerful 8th immortal profound aura and the towering Dark Asura spirit animus of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    "What is this?"

    "Darkness Profound Aura¡­"

    "A divine lord?!"

    "Immortal divine lord to be exact¡­"

    "Is this even possible?"

    "Our Ancient First Divine Consort and the other divine consorts must have been victorious against these depraved immortal divine lords in the Greater Spirit Realm or else why are we still receiving their spirit power every 500 years?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had suddenly warned them gently, "Don''t get into the way of their duel. Stand behind me. I can hold back the intense pressure of his darkness profound strength for everyone. I hope that all of you will conserve your strength first and fight with meter."

    It was only then that they had all suddenly noticed that the white profound aura around Xu Yifei was that of a great divine consort.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled but she was truly delighted, "Sister, you have regained your spirit profound strength?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was gasping with disbelief as her beautiful eyes stared at her, "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is back¡­"

    There was a sheepish look that was in the beautiful flustered countenance of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun; it was because she had offended Xu Yifei in the past.

    She was also the first to be ahead of the other 3 divine consorts as she was leaving with Xiao Muhan to pay Ji Yuan a visit after getting all his ck history.

    But when her spirit divine sense had sensed a powerful but disturbing profound aura ahead of her, she had immediately taken flight to investigate it ahead of Xiao Muhan and her other female followers.

    The charming look of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was also surprised but she was paying more attention to Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga is fighting an immortal divine lord all by himself? Why? We should help him¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had heard her and she said quietly, "This is Master Ji Yuan''s wish to fight a duel with this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. We have to respect his wishes."

    Although Ji Yuan was now standing far away from Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, he could however hear her and all the divine consorts.

    There was a sheepish look in his face as he muttered to himself, "Actually, my true wish is for all 6 of us to try to beat this guy¡­"

    2. Hmm, I don''t know whether to title this chapter as History of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong (Sounds too wrong) or All the 5 Divine Consorts (Too short and they have only appeared at the end of the chapter). In the end, I choose the current title.

 Chapter 765 The 5 Sword Domains Of Ji Yuan

    ?

    The enticing beautiful Great Divine Consort Yu Yifei, the charming beautiful Ding Jie''Er, the sentimental beautiful Divine Consort Tang Manni, the flushing beautiful Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and the beautiful serenity of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin were all watching intently at Ji Yuan and the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    Ji Yuan had moved a foot forward in the face of the dark profound intense pressure that was caused by his opponent; he was going to make his first move.

    All of a sudden, his sword intentions that were being affected by his two sword spirits had exploded around him and the nine divine swords on the ground were now wavering.

    Ji Yuan had shouted loudly, "Flying Sword Domain!"

    The nine divine swords that were on the ground were now uprooting itself and were flying hastily against the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    Immortal Lord Kong Rong growled as he sped forward toward Ji Yuan, "You are capable of using a Sword Domain? But this Sword Domain of yours is the weakest that I have ever seen!"

    As he sped forward, his Dark Asura spirit animus was also flying ahead of him and were plummeting with all 6 dark arms of his into dark profound piercers, exploding and ripping the ground in front.

    When Ji Yuan''s nine divine swords flew straight toward into the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, all 9 of the divine swords were scatteredpletely out of the weak.

    It was exactly as Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had said; this Flying Sword Domain was too weak.

    And Ji Yuan knows it.

    It was because when he had created this 3rd Sword Domain, he had created it weaker than the first two Sword Domains; it was because he had wanted this Flying Sword Domain to be reusable and not just useable only a one-time use.

    Ji Yuan had immediately sped forward to meet the onughter of the Dark Asura spirit animus and he had turned around in mid-air as he crossed both of his divine swords together into his Grand Cross profound sword art as a huge profound light in the shape of a cross exploded from his divine swords.

    This time round Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong looked a little startled but he continued to smile wryly, "This profound sword art looks stronger than your Sword Domain. This profound sword art requires your life and death energies. How daring of you to use this to boost your profound attack. Although it is really powerful but unfortunately it is still futile because I am not an ordinary immortal¡­

    He had suddenly raised his left fingers to disy a gigantic ck profound talisman to fully neutralize all the profound might of Ji Yuan''s grand cross attack.

    And then he had raised his right fingers to weave another ck talisman and exploded it upon Ji Yuan with a mighty loud profound explosion while he was still in mid-air!

    Ji Yuan waspletely stunned as the profound explosion that had the profound power of a 8th immortal cultivationpletely engulfed him; his opponent could attack and defense at the same time.

    Because this was also a profound talisman attack, the ck mes of this profound explosion would also persist for a further 3 blinks of an eye, enough topletely any great saint to ashes.

    The Divine Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rongughed haughtily as he was just waiting to surprise his opponent with this one profound attack at point-nk, "This is my Annihting ck Fire. I wanted to give you a small hope and then for me to extinguish it in front of you. You can''t extinguish my Annihting ck Fire with your current power power¡­"

    All five of the divine consorts were gasping softly and they were all muttering, "Ji Yuan, Master Ji Yuan, Yuan Beluga¡­"

    All of a sudden there was an impossible amount of life force energies that exploded forth from out of the Annihting ck Fire that overwhelmed it and a powerful and frightening indomitable sword will of the sword intentions had suddenly dawned upon the vicinity.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was startled, "This is a second Sword Domain and this one is much more powerful than the first?! You are not a half-step Sword Immortal but a Sword Immortal?"

    Ji Yuan had just disyed his Life and Death Sword Domain, a powerful Sword Domain that he could only use once and he had used it on his second grand cross attack; only if his profound attack was more powerful than his opponent''s Annihting ck Fire could he ovee it sessful.

    And the Life and Death Sword Domain was one such Sword Domain that could allow him to channel his life force energies to his utmost.

    Ji Yuan''s Life and Death Grand Cross was like a rising phoenix that exploded with a brilliant white explosion upon the Dark Asura spirit animus.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong had quickly raised both of his fingers into a defensive gesture as he weaved another 2 ck talismans to absorb this powerful profound attack.

    But still he was being moved back seven steps and his two talismans had cracked.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was actually smiling; it was because powerful Sword Domains can only be used only once. His profound spirit talismans however, could be used unlimited. So, it did not matter if his current talismans were cracked. He could simply weave new spirit talismans into existence again.

    "Is this the best that you can actually do?"

    He was now mocking Ji Yuan after he had sessfully blocked off his attack.

    All of a sudden, he was further startled when he saw that there were hundreds of profound swords that were surrounding Ji Yuan.

    This was actually Ji Yuan''s Thousand Sacred Swords profound sword art.

    However, this was not the profound swords that startled the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong but there was a new indomitable sword intention now.

    Ji Yuan had just disyed his Million Swords Field and Domain, another Sword Domain of his.

    And he was sending all the hundreds of profound swords into a straight line to rush toward the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong as he shouted, "Let''s see if you can receive my Harker of the Million Swords!"

    All the profound swords had suddenly formed into a single impale that sought to break the unbreakable barrier of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong that was being held in ce by his two talismans and his Dark Asura spirit animus that was destroying the iing profound swords.

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong quickly raised two new gigantic talismans again to defend against the iing profound swords and even his Dark Asura spirit animus was raining powerful dark profound spikes to destroy as many of the iing profound swords.

    This time round, Immortal Divine Lord King Rong had used his most powerful dark spirit talismans to pit against Ji Yuan''s profound attack.

    This time round the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong did not say a word because he dared not be careless. If he could ovee this Sword Domain, then victory would be his. He just did not believe that Ji Yuan would be capable of a 3rd Sword Domain, since having three Sword Domains can already be considered as a Sword Deity and it was the limit for most Sword Deities.

    The five divine consorts on the other hand were startled, "He is a Sword Deity? Ji Yuan is a Sword Deity?"

    Legend had it that the human race once had a Sword Deity and she was apanion to the Ancient First Divine Consort. In an ambush one day, she had killed scores of divine lords with her sword before she had fallen. But she had protected the Ancient First Divine Consort with her life.

    From that day onward, this Sword Deity was revered as a spiritas heroine instead of a human heroine.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and Ji Yuan were now pitting both their profound arts in a sh of willpower, profound power and resilient.

    Ji Yuan was now a little anxious because the hundreds of profound swords that were forming into a long impale were beginning to thin and it had already reached 1/2 of the length.

    Xiang Li had said panicky to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you got to be better than this or he will green you for sure. Your senior sister, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Divine Consort Tang Manni and that na?ve looking Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er¡­ they all will be his next depraved victims."

    Fairy Anyang was also saying: My lord! Do you want to be his male harlot and be green in front of your maidens?

    JI Yuan began to shout with great fury, "Nooooooo!!!! No one can green meeeee!!!! I shall not be green!"

    And he was asking his swords, "Do you guys want to be green by anyone?"

    The dissipated sword energies that were from the Ji Yuan''s Harker of the Million Swords were beginning to reform from all around the destroyed vicinity of the streets.

    All of a sudden, a second Sword Domain and the 4th to be urred dawned upon the vicinity and the hundreds of dissipated sword energies and even the 9 divine swords were flying to attack Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong in all directions.

    This new sword domain was abination of the Million Swords Field and the Flying Sword Domain.

    And even Ji Yuan''s original Harker of the Million Swords was also reformed into a new impale.

    Ji Yuan had actually forgotten to give a name to this Sword Domain yet.

    Hundreds of persistent swords shed into the body the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and he waspletely stunned, "4th Sword Domain? You can use 2 Sword Domains at the same time?!"

    The indomitable will of Ji Yuan was very strong because he did not want to be green nor did his swords want to be green too. When Ji Yuan had created his Sword Domains, part of the condition that he had made with his swords were that no one should green them.

    When they met someone that could green them, they would only get stronger and their sword intentions would only increase!

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was now weaving as many new dark spirit talismans as quickly as he could to rece his damage dark spirit talismans even though he was now being wounded by the multitude of flying swords.

    Powerful Sword Domains can only be used only once. And they cannotst for too long. So, as long as he can persist longer than this Ji Yuan, then he would have the final victory.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly shouting with great fury, "Do you think that you can green me? I am going to show you my 5th Sword Domain!"

    Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong waspletely stunned as he gasped with shock: Fifth Sword Domain?! He is capable of using a 5th Sword Domain?!!

    But he knows that this was the truth because he could suddenly feel a surge of sword intentions from Ji Yuan and it was as though a 5th Sword Domain wasing forth.

    But this soft gasp of his had alsopletely broken his concentration and in that very instant, Ji Yuan''s profound swords had all burst through his defenses and there were even 9 divine swords sticking on his body.

    Once the 9 divine swords were on his body, they began to explode their profound powers mightily and in the next instant, Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and his cultivation core had exploded in a brilliant sh of light.

    This profound explosion was so huge that the entire street was destroyed. Even the five divine consorts and their female followers were forced to raise their spirit talismans to prevent themselves from being swept away by the ripples of this profoud explosion.

    Xiang Li said to Ji Yuan in their soul sea: Big Brother, we have won?

    Ji Yuan was startled too, "We have won?"

    But he was soonughing with an exhausted look as it was too mentally draining for him to use the Sword Domains. "Haha¡­ we have really won. Our willpower and persistent is better than him."

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother,st time you have said you are going to use your 5th Sword Domain but you didn''t even get the chance to use it. Now it is the same as well. Why don''t you use it now for me to have a look?

    The reason why Ji Yuan did not show Xiang Li and the rest of his group his 5th Sword Domain in the Demonic Divine Realm was because he waspletely exhausted from fighting with thousands of top cultivators.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he rebuked her quietly: Dumb Xiang Li. Sword intentions require a strong opponent in order to use it. So, how do you expect me to show you?

    Xiang Li suggested with a giggle: See that 11 rebels over there? You can try using on them.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He growled: Xiang Li, if my opponent is too weak, I can''t use my sword intentions too.

    Xiang Li pointed out with more giggles: But they will green you if you don''t use your sword domain.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan decided to ignore Xiang Li for now but he was pondering the earlier battle with a shocked look, "I can use 2 Sword Domains at the same time? Or only with thisbination"

    2. This is a really long chapter and fight. But I don''t want to break it into 2 chapters.

 Chapter 766 5 Divine Consorts Fighting Over Ji Yuan

    ?

    The aftermath of the fight between Ji Yuan and the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong caused the entire street that they were fighting in, to be almostpletely destroyed and huge pits of smokes were rising from the ashes of their fight.

    When Ji Yuan had defeated the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, all five of the divine consorts had all shed to him and were all gasping with all kinds of concern for him."

    This stunned many of the female followers of the divine consorts that were or arriving at the scene to assist their divine consorts.

    "Master Ji Yuan, are you hurt?"

    "Ji Yuan, are you hurt?"

    "Yuan Beluga, you are well?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly flown into Ji Yuan''s embrace and she was giggling, "Yuan Beluga, you have killed that Immortal Divine Lord. I am so impressed by you."

    Her actions stunned the other 4 divine consorts because this was actually what they had wanted to do but did not dare to do so; their pride as a divine consort and their own shyness were holding them back from doing what Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was doing.

    But for Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, she was the weakest among the 5 divine consorts and her pride had long been trampled by the mockery of all the spiritas in Snowy Pavilion City for being the poorest divine consort and she had often gone alone without her female followers. And she had to borrow from the other divine consorts and even her own followers to maintain her divine consort rule.

    Her reputation in the Snowy Pavilion City was next to 0 and probably the worst repute divine consort in the entire 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad. The only reputation that she had was her reputation as a divine consort.

    But today, this pathetic divine consort had beaten all of them to what they had wanted in their hearts but did not dare to.

    Ji Yuan was actually surprised when Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was suddenly hugging him; it was because he had thought that he had already screwed up his chances and Trust Points with her after he had decided not to pick her.

    Ji Yuan tried to push her away with his profound strength but she was holding him really tightly and refusing to let him go¡­

    And his own profound strength was feeble at this moment.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei raised her soft voice amidst themotions, "Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, do you know that you are holding my man?"

    When she had said that, the other 4 divine consorts were stunned.

    Ji Yuan was her man?!

    When did that happen?

    Even Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled, "Sister, really?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was flustered but she nodded at the question; she was too awkward to tell the other divine consorts that Ji Yuan had kissed her earlier and ordingly to the ancient spiritasw, they are a couple.

    Even Ji Yuan was looking a little awkward, "Haha¡­ I can exin¡­ I think¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said quietly to Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, "You can let go of him now."

    It was only then that Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was gasping softly and she was also flustered as she let go of Ji Yuan.

    She was not hugging Ji Yuan intentional.

    Ji Yuan had defeated the Immortal Divine Lord, she was just too overjoyed and she had flown into his embrace unwittingly, forgetting that she was not Ji Yuan''s partner cultivation anymore.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin quietly said but her lips were trembling lightly, "I have the best profound pills in my vi. May I invite Sword Deity Ji Yuan to my ce to recuperate?"

    The reason why her lips were trembling was because she was nervous and nervous about being rejected by Ji Yuan.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was blushing as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, I mean Ji Yuan¡­ I mean Sword Deity Ji Yuan¡­ you are now the great hero of our city¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni quickly interrupted everyone, "Aren''t all of you shameless? Have you already forgotten that Master Ji Yuan has willingly chosen toe with me? Now that this Immortal Divine Lord is now dead, can you all please leave? Where youe from, this is where you should go¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Sword Deity Ji Yuan, I hope to invite you to my vi for a rest. After you have recovered, you can leave anytime." Divine Consort Dongfang Xin interrupted Divine Consort Tang Manni to say.

    She did not care for what Tang Manni is going to say.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei cut her in, "Master Ji Yuan is going with me, back to my tavern. We have something very important to discuss today. Or are all of you going to oppose the words of a great divine consort?"

    The other 3 divine consorts Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were all quiet immediately.

    Basically, a great divine consort outranks all the other noble ranks including a divine consort.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was suddenly smiling, "I have heard that the spirit food is the best. I like to go there to have a try."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was not slow to act and she quickly giggled, "I am also thinking of eating there too."

    As for Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, she smiled to say. "I am escorting Ji Yuan''s Brother Xiao Muhan back to his lodgings. I have better go to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s tavern to ensure that he will be there."

    Then she turned to smile shyly at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "Also, I hope that Sister Great Divine Consort will forgive me for what I did in the past to you. I ought to apologize for my past actions and pay you a sincere visit to your tavern."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni, Great Consort Xu Yifei: ¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni angrily said, "When did my sister be your sister?"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun chuckled awkwardly but she forced herself to say shamelessly, "Very soon, we will be sisters. Yuan¡­ I mean Ji Yuan is my future cultivation partner¡­"

    "No, he is not! Yuan Beluga is mine!" Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er interrupted unhappily. "You are too shameless!"

    Ji Yuan got a big headache when all 5 divine consorts were suddenly arguing and talking to him at the same time.

    Ji Yuan weakly raised his voice to say loudly, "Erm, shouldn''t you all ask me where I want to go instead?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled, "Master Ji Yuan, you are¡­ not going to my tavern?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Actually I am thinking of going to Divine Consort Tang Manni''s vi today¡­"

    When he had said, Divine Consort Tang Manni was flustered and she quickly said to Ji Yuan with a coyly look. "I''m going to my sister''s tavern today. Are youing with me?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "I am going¡­"

    He was actually trying to avoid going to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s tavern due to awkwardness, after he had kissed her earlier.

    And also, because he had learnt that the other 3 divine consorts were also going there as well.

    So he thought that it may be wiser to go to Divine Consort Tang Manni''s vi instead.

    It was because he wanted to ask her if she needs a champion or not and he did not want the other divine consorts to know as this would be awkward to his face.

    But she had suggested going to her sister''s tavern instead.

 Chapter 767 The Greater Spirit Realm

    ?

    Greater Spirit Realm;

    In the throne room of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods of the Spiritas.

    These 6 Supreme Divine Gods were seated in a semi-circle around the center of a circr hall and there were 6 naked beautiful maidens that were either ying flutes with their little brothers or they were down on all fours as they were being galloped nonstop.

    These 6 beautiful maidens all had cors around their necks and were actually divine consorts that had ascended.

    In the lower Spirit Realm, they all had their prides but in the Immortal Great Spirit Realm, they were the docile ythings of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods and it was something that they had enjoyed.

    It was after all a fate that was better than being the ything of all the inferior immortal divine lords.

    That was why they were all eager to please their masters as much as they could and for that, they could not stop their mouths or sway their butts constantly, spilling their lewd juices with their soft beautiful moans and at each climax.

    The lewder they were, the more excited and pleased their masters were.

    And these 6 depraved divine consorts did not intend for anyone to rece them and hence, they cannot stop in their depraved acts as this would invite their punishments immediately or to lose the favor of their masters.

    Their 6 masters, the Supreme Divine Gods could y with them whatever they want and they would only be delighted no matter how depraved their minds were.

    In these 6 maidens'' minds, they were all willing to say. "Masters, I love you. No matter what you want us to do or share us with the other Masters, we are most willing."

    In the middle of the circr hall, was the naked Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina; she was dancing slowly and disying her long big milky white boobs that the 6 Supreme Divine Gods had slowly cultivated by bonding the top and bottom of her boobs to squeeze out her breasts into this long shape over the thousands of years.

    They especially like it when Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was on all fours and her nipples could touch the floor, since her boobs could stoop as long as her thighs and forearms.

    The greatest of all the divine consorts and also the first, the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was actually the depraved female ve of the immortal spiritas divine lords in the Immortal Greater Spirit Realm as well as being the first female to have ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm.

    There were absolutely no females before her.

    And the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were absolutely going crazy as they had only themselves and the other male divine lords as their ''depraved partners''.

    Why did they have to ascend in the first ce, just to lead an immortal life that was totally different from the lower Spirit Divine Realm?

    That was why they had finally decided to stop the depraved ways of the divine lords in the Spirit Divine Realm and to help the female spiritas to ascend but it was not due to any kindness but because they were decadent.

    This was something that was an ultimate secret of the Immortal Greater Spirit Realm and the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were just using her as a bait to fish more divine consorts into ascending just to be their depraved female ves.

    In the Greater Spirit Realm, only the Immortal Divine Lords can cultivate.

    The female spiritas are simply not given any resources or time to even cultivate and they were the eternal ves of the immortal divine lords.

    All of a sudden, the crystal that was floating in the center of the circr hall had suddenly exploded!

    The reason why the crystal had exploded was because Immortal Divine Lord Kong was now dead!

    The expressions that were on the 6 Supreme Divine Gods had suddenly changed, especially the fourth Supreme Divine God; it was because he was actually the master of Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    Immediately the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were muttering incessant to one another while the frightened 6 naked maidens looked on.

    "Who is the one that has killed Kong Rong?"

    "Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong has died¡­ this is impossible. He is one of the 300 legendary spiritas heroes¡­"

    "Kong Rong is supposedly invincible in the lower Spirit Realm. Most of the 8th Spirit Realm 300 legendary heroes are now either dead or cultivation is weaker than Kong Rong¡­"

    "We need to send a powerful legendary hero down below again to investigate this¡­"

    "We should send someone much stronger. The leader of the 300 legendary heroes is Achilles. We should send him instead."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Even with all ourbined wealth, we barely have enough now especially when the great games of the Spiritas Tower is going to start soon. If we do send Achilles, we need to ask ourselves if this is worth doing so and is it worth it?"

    All of a sudden, Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina had walked respectfully to them while holding onto her two big boobs with her hands before humbly kneeling down. "My masters, your lowly depraved harlot ve has a suggestion for you."

    The 6 Supreme Divine Gods were startled by this sudden request but they said nevertheless, "Speak!"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina said slowly, "Sending our great legendary Achilles may be too overkilling. Sending anyone less powerful may also not do because the divine consorts below may be looking out for a powerful male spiritas. I think that Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong may be killed because of the restriction that was ced in him not to hurt any of the divine consorts and somehow, they have discovered this and had taken advantage of this¡­"

    She paused to sigh softly, "Therefore you shouldn''t send a male spiritas but a female spiritas instead. I can volunteer for this mission."

    The second Supreme Divine God on the left said cautiously, "Why should we trust you?"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina said, "I am your lowly depraved harlot ve and I ampletely loyal to my masters. Moreover, I still have to return after a short period of time. Masters can put a restriction on me to prevent me for leaking any of the secrets that are in the Greater Spirit Realm. I don''t mind because I am eager to prove my loyalty to my masters and be your helpful lowly depraved harlot ve."

    She continued to point out, "As their Ancient First Divine Consort, I can easily gain their trust and they won''t be on their guard against me. And I can also ensure that our Great Games of the Spiritas Tower will run smoothly. Also, I have a lowly cultivation and it will be inexpensive to send a lowly depraved harlot ve like me to the Spirit Divine Realm."

    The third Supreme Divine God said slowly and he was smiling, "I think this is a good idea."

    The other Supreme Divine Gods were all nodding and smiling at the same time.

    "We don''t have to worry about her touching our future female harlots¡­"

    "The divine consorts will respect her and trust her¡­"

    "She can find out who kill Kong Rong and possibly find out if our True Devil God has been reincarnated¡­"

    "And also find out about that great divine consort named Xu Yifei¡­"

    "She can even help the divine consorts in their cultivation so that they can quickly ascend¡­"

    "This idea is too good¡­"

    The fifth Supreme Divine God asked Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, "So what do you want as your reward? Surely you must have a motive for this. Don''t lie to us."

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina slowly said with a curled smile, "I hope that I will be able to have some resources and time to cultivate. This is all I want."

    The fifth Supreme Divine God nodded, "It is a small and reasonable request. This shall be granted to you."

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina bowed down to offer her thanks, "May the great blessings of the True Devil God be with you."

    The fourth Supreme Divine God said with a look of bitterness, "One more thing first. We will give you a special talisman that contains the most powerful soul attack from each of us. Use it on the one that has killed Kong Rong. Even a lesser immortal cannot survive against ourbined soul attack. Kong Rong is my favorite male harlot. If he can kill Kong Rong, you may not be her or his match. Even if she is a divine consort, she must die to avenge Kong Rong. This is the only exception rule¡­"

    He then slowly added, "Also find Xu Yifei and help her to regain to her peak if possible. I want her."

    2. I have actually written two drafts for this. Both have a different ending. But I''ve chosen this instead.

    In the first draft, the Supreme Divine Gods do have names and their names are Cmydia, Sars, Eb, Apollo, Syphilis and Covid.

    The name of Ancient First Divine Consort is Aphrodite Tina.

 Chapter 768 Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina (1)

    ?

    Spirit Divine Realm.

    Snowy Pavilion City, in the rebel hideout.

    In the great hall of the rebel hideout.

    Elder Xie Tianzun had hastily summoned all the over 3000 rebels from all over the hideouts of the city-state, including the 100 rebel leaders from the other city-states.

    "Everyone, something urgent has just popped up and that is why I have taken the decision to summon all of you."

    Most of the rebels were now muttering among themselves what it was but some of them had already guessed or heard of it from somewhere else.

    Elder Xie Tianzun was smiling as he said asked, "Basically I have two news. One bad and one good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

    "Bad news?"

    "Good news?"

    "The bad news first?"

    "Good one?"

    "The bad one first?"

    Elder Xie Tianzunughed as he heard them and he said, "It seems that there are more of you that want to hear about the bad news first. Alright then. Let''s have the bad news first."

    He began to turn solemn before saying, "I am afraid that our enemy the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has fully regained her spirit cultivation to the 7th Spirit Realm."

    Many of the rebels in the hall were gasping with shock and even their expressions were shocked.

    "This is really very bad news for all of us¡­"

    "In the past, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has indeed killed or captured numerous of our rebels¡­"

    "We will not have any more peace in the future¡­"

    "Luckily I am from the other city-state¡­"

    "Yea, me too. Luckily¡­"

    "Good luck to the rebels in Snowy Pavilion City¡­"

    "So, what is the good news?"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was now smiling, "And now for the good news that all of you have been waiting¡­"

    He had purposely waited for themotions to die down before continuing with a loud chuckle, "I know that it has already been rumored among some of you but I am going to confirm it now. Our great rebel leader as well as the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong is now dead. He was killed by our ex-great rebel leader Yuan Ji. But we now know that his real name is Ji Yuan."

    Immediately, there were exited loud shouts and cheers from all the 3000 rebels and many were even dancing with joy!

    Among them, there were even 2 male celestials that had recently joined the rebels but were unfortunately to meet with a pervert like the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong; they have tears of happiness rolling down their cheeks¡­

    Elder Xie Tianzun was smiling even more when he saw the happiness and great delights in all the rebels.

    He proceeded to say loudly, "But this isn''t the only announcement of the day. I have discussed it with our 4 main rebel leaders earlier and we have decided to destroy the shrine to the True Devil God. I wonder what do all of you think about this?"

    The over 3000 rebels were mostly startled; it was because the male spiritas had worshipped the True Devil God in every ceremony and hope for his return. To destroy his shrine in the past was unthinkable.

    But that was in the past.

    Almost all the rebels were shouting with great feverously and they were all up for it.

    "Let''s destroy the shrine to our True Devil God!"

    "Better as quick as possible!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "We don''t want any of these perverted immortal divine lords to return¡­"

    "I will never want to ever see one of them ever again¡­"

    "No more worshipping of the True Devil God. Let''s worship the Great Beyond Goddess instead¡­"

    "We should make peace with the divine consorts instead¡­"

    "To leave the shrine intact is like leaving a big risk for all of us¡­"

    "You have no idea how much I have suffered in my arse¡­"

    Elder Xie Tianzun was smiling as he dered loudly, "So be it then¡­"

    All of a sudden, a most beautiful and appealing looking maiden had suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hall. The sight of her appearance and her 8th spirit profound aura had immediately stunned all the rebels into silence¡­

    8th Spirit Realm maiden¡­

    This could only mean she was an immortal divine consort¡­

    Did she find them in their hideout or appeared from the shrine''s arrays?

    It should not be from outside the hideout as the rebels have plenty of powerful spirit arrays in the ce and they would quickly be alerted to any outside threats.

    This immortal divine consort was really beautiful and appealing. Moreover, all the men were gulping as they stared at the thin but long breasts in front of her bosoms¡­ it was the dream fantasy of every male rebel to fondle and sucked such a wondrous pair of breasts.

    Even though her breasts were long but her nipples were positioned straight and slightly upright, so it did not appear to be sagging.

    In fact, many of the rebels were hardened now and some were even drooling.

    Even Elder Xie Tianzun''s fingers were trembling at the look of such wonderous pair of breasts and he wanted toy his hands on them.

    Like all spiritas maidens, this immortal maiden was nearly nude. There was a short golden chain around her waist that conveniently covered just below her crotch and her nipples were concealed by straps of gold chains to her neck cor.

    This was a devil body to the rebels and many of the rebels were trembling unsteady; they had seen many great beauties including the peerless beauty of the city-state divine consorts but never such an enticing devil body.

    Only the enticing Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei couldpare to her but she was too proper andcked the beauty of this pair of peerless breasts from this immortal maiden.

    It took Elder Xie Tianzun some time to stammer out, "Who¡­ who are you¡­"

    This was the question that was on everyone''s mind as well!

    This beautiful and appealing maiden smiled as she walked slowly into the hall and the rebels were all clearing a path for her.

    "Who am I?"

    "Well, I am who you called the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina."

    When she had said that, all the rebels began to fall on their knees to beg for mercy and many had even wetted their pants¡­

    Even Elder Xie Tianzun turned as white as sheet and he was stammering nonstop, "Goddess Divine Consort Ai¡­ Tina, please have your mercies on us¡­"

    Although they had no idea why the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina could use the shrine of the True Devil God and the divine lords to descend back to their Spirit Divine Realm but it was better to ask for mercy first.

    It was because in the absolute might of these immortal spirit cultivators, their long lives were at stake!

    2. Ai also means love. And Ai Tina also sounds like Athena:X

 Chapter 769 Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina (2)

    ?

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly to all the rebels, "Fear not. I am a benevolent First Divine Consort and I am also the patron goddess of the weak, warfare and wisdom. You can say that I am also the protectress of the maidens."

    She walked calmly to Elder Xie Tianzun who were bowing with fear and turned around to look at all the 3000 rebels who were also bowing and shivering with great fear.

    This actually included the 2 celestial great saints in their midst for they had no wish to fight an immortal and they know that somehow the spirit cultivators here were all stronger than them at the same cultivation realm; they were as frightened as the others since an immortal could easily crush them at any time.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled wryly before saying soothingly to them, "You must be curious why I am able to use your shrine and got here, am I right?"

    Indeed, all the rebels were secretly curious to know but they did not dare to ask why¡­

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "And also you are curious to know about the Greater Divine Realm but did not dare to ask too."

    All the rebels were bowing their head in fear; many were thinking that this must be a trick question and if they dare to ask, then they must die!

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina slowly looked up to the dome of the hall, disying an amused look. "How many tens of thousands of years have passed since I have ascended to the Spirit Divine Realm?"

    Then she looked down and suddenly said coldly, "And there are still so many male spiritas that still want to restore the glory of the old spiritas traditions?!"

    When she had said that, many of the rebels including Elder Xie Tianzun were all banging their heads on the floor.

    "Goddess Divine Consort Ai Tina¡­ we are all wrong! Please have mercies on all of us!"

    "We don''t dare to be rebels anymore!"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "After I''ve ascended, there are no divine lords in the Greater Spirit Realm that can contest against my profound strength. It is because they are all leading a decadent lifestyle up there and did not pay much attention to their spirit cultivation. Although it has taken me several thousands of years with my divine consorts to finally put down all the opposition, but I have finally seeded intoing the Supreme Divine Goddess of the Greater Divine Realm¡­"

    She paused to disy her awe on all the rebels, "This Kong Rong was just a ve in the spirit mines and he had recently escaped to the lower Spirit Divine Realm. I do know that he is dead now. But I also curious why he has fled here. So, it is because he has aplices here in this ce."

    All the rebels were now banging their heads on the floor really hard.

    "May the Supreme Divine Goddess please forgive us and have great mercies upon us!"

    "I don''t want to die¡­"

    "I don''t want to be a rebel anymore¡­"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "However as the most powerful immortal in the Greater Spirit Realm, I am willing to give you all a chance to turn over a new leaf."

    All the rebels were begging loudly, "May the mighty Supreme Divine Goddess please enlighten us!"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina heaved a soft sigh, "This is easy actually. From now on, convert your shrine to worship me as your Protectress Goddess Ai Tina and I will protect you."

    All the rebels were banging their heads and saying, "We will obey all your divine instructions!"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "This is really wonderful. Then I shall bring you from the darkness to the light. Next step, I will be meeting with all the divine consorts in this city."

    All the rebels were banging even harder when they had heard her.

    "Protectress Goddess Ai Tina, please have your mercies on us. The divine consorts will surely ughter all of us¡­"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled, "You are afraid of the divine consorts? Fear not. I am here. I will protect all of you and bring you to the light. None of you shalle to harm as long as you worship me as your Protectress Goddess."

    All the rebels were crying and kissing the ground now.

    This included Elder Xie Tianzun and he was in hot tears that he had once again escaped a certain death.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluring, "I have forgiven all of you now from your trespasses. From now onward, all of you will be known as my secret followers."

    Many of the rebels were startled as they muttered, "Secret followers?!"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina exined with a wry smile, "Not even the divine consorts shall know about this. From this day onward, you are my secret followers and people. You shall all be known as the followers of Aetina and as my people, you are my Aethinians."

    All the rebels were gasping with shock but it was something that had also aroused their spirits!

    Not only can theye out of the open but the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina will also be their patron goddess and protectress goddess!

    What is more, from now onward, they shall also be known as the Aethinians, followers of the Protectress Goddess Ai Tina!

    This was really a special privilegepared to the short reign of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong!

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "From now onward, I shall establish a new order based on merit and democracy from my people the Aethinians. I shall decide who is going to be leaders and who is not."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was quite startled that he was going to lose his position soon and he was stammering to ask, "May I know¡­ how is this merit¡­going to be earned?"

    He was a little worried because his spirit cultivation was not as good as the 100 rebel leaders in this hall. Therefore, he would soon lose his position as elder.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled at him, "You are qualified to be my leader."

    Elder Xie Tianzun was shocked, "I am?"

    Did he do anything meritorious?

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled alluringly, "Of course you."

    Her only criteria were that the leader must have a beautiful face and that was merit enough. To be ugly was not considered a merit in her eyes.

    Then she turned to everyone with an alluring smile, "First, I shall select the new leaders from all of you. Next you shall slowly briefly me on the history of the Spirit Divine Realm, the current divine consorts in this city-state¡­"

    Then she paused to say slowly, "And I want to know everything about Xu Yifei and where to find her."

    In the past, she was a great leader and had inspired the female spiritas and humans to revolt against the divine lords with her superior organization ability. Converting people to her cause and getting their loyalty, was naturally not a major issue for her.

    Right now, she had seized the opportunity to descend to the lower Spirit Divine Realm for a short period of 60 days and she intended to make the full use of this.

    She hated her ''masters'' and had pretended to be docile to them in order to survive in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    However she knows that she has to first gain their trust in order to plot against them in the future and for that, she intended to find the True Devil God within the 60 days time frame. For this aim, she truly hope that it was really the reincarnated True Devil God and not just some other powerful profound darkness disturbances.

    It was because she hope to make full use of the True Devil God.

    But for now, she could not betray her ''masters'' because they had put several restrictions that were on her that could kill her instantly should she ever try to divulge their secrets.

    Ji Yuan was now back in the tavern but he had 5 divine consorts with him along the way.

    Along the way, he was looking so awkward because it was like he was being escorted by like a prisoner because he was literally surrounded by the 5 divine consorts along with their female followers.

    And the spiritas in the streets were all looking and pointing at him, curious why there was a male that were being escorted by so many divine consorts for the very first time.

    "I have heard that the great rebel leader is based in our city. Is he that great rebel leader?"

    "Maybe he has vited one of the divine consorts?"

    "It is a pity. He has such a beautiful face¡­"

    "But he doesn''t look like a prisoner."

    Actually, Ji Yuan was not the only ones that were feeling awkward, all 5 of the divine consorts were also feeling the same as well.

    When they had all reached the tavern, they were all relieved.

    As they entered into the tavern, Ji Yuan saw that Xiao Muhan was at the counter and he was talking with Maiden Flower Ju, although it was obvious that she was trying to avoid him by not looking at him.

    But both Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju were startled to see Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei returning with Ji Yuan and 4 other divine consorts.

    A female follower of Great Consort Xu Yifei giggled in their direction to announce, "Our great divine consort is finally back!"

    She had two meaning to this.

    One is that their mistress Xu Yifei is now back at the tavern.

    Second is that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has finally regained her great divine consort spirit realm.

    Maiden Flower Ju was astonished by the announcement but she was soon smiling with great delight and her eyes were bleary, "It is good. Our great divine consort is finally back. It is worth waiting for the past 500 years¡­"

    Xiao Muhan on the other hand was stammering, "Brother Ji Yuan. You are back? What happens this time?"

    But he quickly caught on to the announcement as he stared nkly at the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "She is also a divine consort¡­ and also a great divine consort?!"

    He began to curse himself for not pursuing Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei or to make an even better impression when he was staying at the tavern¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly to him, "You won''t believe me. I just fought with an immortal divine lord in the street earlier and I''ve almost got myself killed."

    Xiao Muhan took a look at Ji Yuan and he was roaring withughter, "Dang you, Ji Yuan! Stop fooling my leg and you want to tell me afterward that is how you have met with the 5 divine consorts? Do you think that I am a gullible cultivator with an intelligence of 0? If you can meet an immortal in the street just like this, why didn''t I see one myself? Hahahaha."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately as he said awkwardly, "That is because I am more beautiful than you so therefore, I am more noticeable than you. He asks me to be his male harlot or die."

    When Xiao Muhan heard him, he began to hold onto his belly and he wasughing jovially. "You sound so funny when you look so serious but all your words are just crap¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and Divine Consort Tang Manni said almost at the same time, "Can you shut up? He is not lying!"

    Xiao Muhan stoppedughing and stared nkly at them: ???

    Then he turned to look at Divine Consort Sun Dingjun who was now saying to him, "You are throwing all my face away by insulting the honor of our great spiritas hero Ji Yuan here! Can''t you shut up and listen attentively to Ji Yuan?"

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly as he stared at the 5 divine consorts, "Erm, he is for real? An immortal? And he survives? He is a great spiritas hero?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin said coldly but her eyes were looking sentimentally at Ji Yuan, "I seem to recall that you are his ''best friend''? I am now doubting your ims. Divine Lord Ji Yuan is naturally our great spiritas hero. He has killed an immortal divine lord on his own."

    Xiao Muhan was startled and he stammered, "Divine lord Ji Yuan?! When did he bes a divine lord? What? He kills an immortal divine lord on his own¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said gently but her eyes were dreamily looking at Ji Yuan, "Naturally he is also a divine lord. We have decided to appoint Master Ji Yuan as our first ever Divine Lord in thousands of years and also the great spiritas hero of our city-state."

    Ji Yuan said weakly to Xiao Muhan, "It is exactly as you have heard. If I were to tell you myself, you probably will not believe me."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    It was not only Xiao Muhan that was staring with disbelief but Maiden Flower Ju and the rest of the female followers of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as well.

    When they saw all the other 4 divine consorts were here, they had all thought that something may have happened and they were quite nervous.

    Other than Divine Consort Tang Manni, the other 3 divine consorts were not exactly on the best of terms with their mistress or even Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    But hearing all the other divine consorts agreeing that Ji Yuan had killed an immortal divine lord still sounded unbelievable to them.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xiao Muhan said to Ji Yuan weakly, "I still can''t believe that you can kill an immortal divine lord. You must be there at the right timing by picking up all the pieces when the immortal divine lord is about to die¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had shed in front of Ji Yuan to push Xiao Muhan away by disying a small golden spirit talisman on her finger tips and her spirit profound attack had suddenly sent Xiao Muhan to take 7 steps backward with a single show of her spirit talisman!

    This also speaks of the disparity between the two of them in cultivation strength.

    She said unhappily to Xiao Muhan as she started to grab Ji Yuan''s arm, "Don''t insult the great honor of my Yuan Beluga! He has fought with the immortal divine lord on his own and we have all seen his duel!"

    Xiao Muhan was muttering weakly, "Maybe his duel is a fake¡­"

    But luckily for him, no one except for Maiden Flower Ju seemed to have heard him.

    It was because the rest were being distracted by a sudden fight between the divine consorts; Divine Consort Tang Manni, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun were all attacking Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er at the same time as they shouted, "Hands off from him!"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had to interfere in their fights by disying two spirit talismans to repulse the two fighting sides, "Enough. This is my tavern. I don''t want you to destroy my tavern or else I will be nasty¡­"

    Ji Yuan was looking weakly at Xiao Muhan and he was smiling bitterly; it was because Xiao Muhan totally deserved to be rebuked by these divine consorts.

    However, Ji Yuan was also feeling quite awkward. It was because he had never been in a situation where all the maidens had all believed in him like the situation now and they were even defending his honor.

    He actually had been in more situations where he panicky tried to exin the truth but no one had believed him.

    But now, he did not even need to say a single word to defend himself and these divine consorts would all be defending him fiercely.

    He was beginning to think that he had an error with his Trust Points with these divine consorts and he reminded himselfter to check his Trust Points with his ck ring.

    Right now, he felt that even if he had told them that he had never banged a maiden before, they would definitely believe him.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was suddenly saying to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, pleasee with me. I have something important to discuss with you."

    "I wille with the two of you!" Divine Consort Tang Manni smiled as she was only too d to get rid of these 3 pestering divine consorts.

    She was thinking: Why did they have toe here in the first ce? They are just too shameless!

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei turned to her sister to say, "Sister Manni, I have something personal to settle with Master Ji Yuan. May you stay here for a while."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was stunned.

    "I can''t go?"

    Her sister had never treated her this way before.

    When the other 3 divine consorts had heard Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, they were all smiling wryly.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was more sarcastic, "Your sister is a great divine consort and she wants to fight with her own sister over a male. It seems that there is nothing that you can do."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was hurt by the words and she had disyed her hurt look at her sister¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei held onto her hands to say gently, "Sister Manni. It isn''t what you think. I hope that you can believe your sister¡­"

    But Divine Consort Tang Manni said instead and her eyes were now wet, "Just now I have heard your followers say you have kissed Master Ji Yuan in public. I like to believe you but I really cannot¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled to see that her sister was almost in tears¡­

    Ji Yuan had wanted to say something but somehow, he knows that he would only make it worst so he had decided to keep quiet.

    He was instead muttering weakly to himself: She can cry so easily for a divine consort. I really believe that her heart is made of fragile ss now¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly pointed at Ji Yuan, "He didn''t even bother to rify things. Now I finally know that he likes you¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was the most startled; he actually got med for not saying anything¡­

    2. Poor Xiao Muhan in this chapter lol.

 Chapter 771 The Hearts Of The 3 Divine Consorts

    ?

    After Ji Yuan had left with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei upstairs, the other 4 divine consorts remained at the first floor of the tavern.

    While the 3 divine consorts, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin were sitting together, Divine Consort Tang Manni was sitting with her female followers like Spirit Concubine Fay.

    Xiao Muhan on the other hand was still standing at the counter and he was looking at Maiden Flower Ju''s bosoms but he was looking at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin who was resting her bosoms on the table.

    And he was actually gulping at her delicate milky jade bosoms in secret.

    Xiao Muhan was actually in good spirits today because Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had broken his living furnace seal and it was really as easy as she had said.

    It seemed to him that the spirit cultivations of the Spiritas followed a different cultivationw than the celestials and ording to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, it was impossible to make a spiritas into a living furnace.

    Although there were spiritas depraved ves but it was forced upon them physically and not by cultivation such as the case of the rebels where the male spiritas forced their females into depraved acts.

    Xiao Muhan decided that it was better not to tell Divine Consort Sun Dingjun that he had once joined the rebels and had even donated arge sum of spirit stones to them as he hoped to be their depraved great rebel leader.

    And he was sure that Ji Yuan would not betray him because he had donated the biggest amount of spirit stones and he was even their great rebel leader.

    Earlier before he had tried toe to the tavern, he had actually tried to go to the rebel''s hideout with his rebel token but to his horror, he discovered that the rebels had moved their hideout.

    Xiao Muhan actually did not know that Elder Xie Tianzun had kicked out Ji Yuan from the leadership because he had ''stolen'' all their spirit stones and had even forgotten to report to the rebel base hideout.

    He also did not know that in a matter of a few days, the rebels already have one more ''great rebel leader'' and he was the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and also a new Protectress Goddess Ai Tina.

    As he turned to look at Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, he was still bewildered why she was so cold toward him just now. It was because this morning, she was still so friendly and flushing when she was talking to him.

    He had made sure that she knows all about Ji Yuan''s harem but why was she suddenly so cold toward him?

    Right now, Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was whispering to the other two divine consorts, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin.

    "Do you all know that Ji Yuan has a harem in the Celestial Realm?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had turned pale immediately, "Who told you so?"

    Beside her, even Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also looking shocked and her lips was trembling lightly.

    One must know that even though while the spiritas race do have the harem tradition but it was restricted to themon spiritas.

    The noble and titled spiritas especially the divine consorts are strictly monogamy and they have only one cultivation partner at any given time.

    Polygamy is simply unthinkable to the titled noble spiritas ever since the time of their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina.

    That was also the reason why the 3 of them were also bitterly fighting over Ji Yuan.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled, "I am speaking the truth. His best friend Xiao Muhan is the one that have told me about this. Ji Yuan actually has many maidens and it seems that he likes his senior sister more than anyone of us. Now that you know about this, why don''t you give up on him instead? It isn''t like he is going to stay here, right?"

    There was a lost look that was on Divine Consort Dongfang Xin for the very first. But she soonposed herself and said coldly, "I don''t believe that you would be so kind as to tell me this. If we give up, why aren''t you giving up from the very start? The first person that should have given up, is actually you because you have known about it earlier than us."

    "She¡­ is a slut, that''s why!" Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er hesitated for a while before she hardened her heart to rebuke Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun did not mind it being called a slut by Jie''Er.

    "I''ll be honest with the two of you. I know that I have the lowest chance in our group. But I doubt that you have a much higher chance than me. Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is obviously interested in the other group. Are the two of you sure that you are able to contest with Tang Manni and Xu Yifei?"

    Divine Consorts Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er: ¡­

    There was a soft mncholy from Divine Consort Sun Dingjun as she softened her eyes to say gently, "Yes, I am a slut. So what? I even lost my Sister Jie''Er because of one man. Is it worth it? I must admit that I am only ying with him from the very start but¡­"

    Then she quickly said, "Unlike the two of you, I am happy to be just his lover. Even if it is only for a short time, as long as he is willing to give me his seed, I am contented."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er bit her lips as she forced back the swelling anger that was in her heart. "Sister Dingjun¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun smiled bitterly, "You haven''t call me as your Sister Dingjun for a long time now."

    "I think that we are all the same..." Divine Consort Dongfang Xin said slowly before adding. "The same pathetic maidens."

    Divine Consorts Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er: ¡­

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin sighed expressionlessly, "Although we are rivals, I still appreciate the strength of the two of you as a divine consort¡­"

    She shed her expressionless eyes before she lowered her head to say quietly, "To me, these male celestials are just dogsing to our world for their trials. I probably hates them because I am a half-celestial and my blood is impure. That is why I tries so hard to prove myself that I am a true spiritas. I hate them in my heart but not Ji Yuan. He has the same heroic spirit as my celestial father."

    Divine Consorts Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were startled that the cold Divine Consort Dongfang Xin that had always trampled upon their prides would actually be talking quietly to them about her past.

    "I like Yuan Beluga because I have never been so happy with someone in my life." Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly muttered. "Especially when he didn''t know that I am a divine consort and he isn''t trying to butter to me because of any trust points¡­"

    She paused and her eyes were bleary, "And I also know that none of you really likes me because I have a poor reputation as a divine consort¡­"

    "Sister Jie''Er, you''re wrong¡­" Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was gasping and her eyes were also watery. "I''ve always treated you as my dearest Sister Jie''Er in my heart. I didn''t like Ji Yuan at the very start and I am trying to protect you from him. That is why I have tried to hurt you on purpose. I didn''t know. Sorry¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was startled, "Really? But now¡­"

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun bit her lips, "But now I really like your Yuan Beluga. I don''t deserve to be your sister."

    The 3 divine consorts began to look at one another then they were suddenly smiling as though they had a sudden enlightenment.

    In their hearts, they know what to do now.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was suddenly frowning with a weird look at the 3 divine consorts that were sitting at the other end of the corner.

    It seemed to her that they were suddenly good friends¡­

    2. Thanks for manyments for the previous chapters and I have a quick edit to make the chapter clearer. Or rather, it was hazy to hide a hidden mystery.

    Chapter 767 (The sentence has been rearranged. It hides a mystery in theter chapters if you are able to decode it)

    *The Greater Spirit Realm.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina bowed down to offer her thanks, "May the great blessings of the True Devil God be with you."

    She suddenly said, "My masters. As you know that my cultivation is lower than Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. I may not be able to defeat his killer and avenge him."

    The fourth Supreme Divine God nodded, "Kong Rong is my favorite male harlot. If he can kill Kong Rong, you may not be her or his match. Even if she is a divine consort, she must die to avenge Kong Rong. This is the only exception rule. For this, We will give you a special talisman that contains the most powerful soul attack from each of us. Use it on the one that has killed Kong Rong. Even a lesser immortal cannot survive against ourbined soul attack."

    3. Chapter 769 (Addition lines added. This affect only the privilege readers to show the true intentions of Ancient First Consort Ai Tina).

    *Ancient First Consort Ai Tina (2)

    She hated her ''masters'' and had pretended to be docile to them in order to survive in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    However she knows that she has to first gain their trust in order to plot against them in the future and for that, she intended to find the True Devil God within the 60 days time frame. For this aim, she truly hope that it was really the reincarnated True Devil God and not just some other powerful profound darkness disturbances.

    It was because she hope to make full use of the True Devil God.

    But for now, she could not betray her ''masters'' because they had put several restrictions that were on her that could kill her instantly should she ever try to divulge their secrets.

 Chapter 772 Ji Yuan And Xu Yifei

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now in Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s person room and they were alone inside.

    There were six of her female followers that were outside and more in the immediately corridors but Ji Yuan knows by now that her personal room waspletely secure against any eavesdropping.

    Even without her personal followers outside, her door was not going to be forced open in a matter of time as there was actually a powerful defensive array in this ce.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei took a lovelorn look at Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan or should I call you Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan now?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled in his usual jovial manner, "Just Ji Yuan will do. I don''t really like to be addressed as this Master or Great Spiritas Hero thing. You are not my inferior."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei lowered her head shyly as she hesitated for a while before muttering, "Master¡­ Ji Yuan, I think this title is proper for you and I''ve calling you Master Ji Yuan since the beginning."

    Ji Yuan wanted to faint; he had thought that she had hesitated in order to drop the title from his name but she was actually thinking if she should continue addressing him as Master Ji Yuan instead of other titles.

    "Master Ji Yuan," Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said respectfully and she was suddenly flustered. "Do you really mean that when you¡­ just before your fight with the immortal divine lord."

    She could not bring herself to say the word ''kiss me''.

    Ji Yuan was kissing her passionately back then and she could not be wrong about this ''feeling''. At this moment, even he was just treating her as his ything until his trial was over, she was even prepared to believe him.

    It was because she was hopelessly in love with him.

    Ji Yuan was awkward actually and this was a tight p to his face due to his momentum heat of the moment.

    He knew that the way Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had looked at him was different from the very start. At that time, he had pretended not to see it because he was only interested in pursuing the divine consorts for their trust points.

    But now, when she was really a divine consort and he was hesitating.

    It was because Ji Yuan knows that his time here was really short and he did not want to disappoint any of the maidens as they could note with him and he could not stay either.

    When Xiao Muhan and Ji Yuan had met in this ce for the very first time, they were all joking about banging a divine consort as this was their crudenguage.

    Men and Maidens always think differently.

    When the two of them had learnt of their trial objective, they immediately thought of banging the divine consorts to score their 100 Trust Points. This was the easiest thing that had urred to them and that was why they were saying this ce was not for the celestial maidens that were taking the trial here.

    They actually know that the trust points can slowly be gained. But this is a little too hard in their mind and is not efficient. What better way to do it than to win the trust of a divine consort by developing a rtionship with them?

    And that is why almost all the celestial males are taking this as their main objective.

    But for the celestial maidens, their only option is to win the trust of the divine consorts by first gaining their trust.

    That was why the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue had rebuked Ji Yuan for treating the trial objective as his ''Seduction'' or ''Banging'' Points.

    It was because while the celestial maidens were all focusing on gaining the trust of only one divine consort, the male celestials were all thinking of scoring multiple 100 Trust Points with all the divine consorts.

    While the celestial maidens were realistic, the celestial men were a little unrealistic.

    Also, men tend to count their chickens by thinking about the future while maidens are always counting their chickens by what they can see now.

    Although this may be the same trial but the celestial men and maidens are divided in how they should tackle this SS Spirit Trial.

    But Ji Yuan was now given a unique option to score his 100 Trust Points now and he could y with the feelings of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I''m sorry. It was a folly on my side to kiss you earlier. Although you are now a divine consort and I am in need to score my trust points, but I can''t hurt you. It isn''t because I dislike you. Also, I have a harem where I am from. I have someone very important that is waiting for me to join her. And for that, I have to be a stronger cultivator or else she will kick me away. Hahaha¡­"

    He did not say that Jiajia also wants him to be a romantic cultivator.

    But when the timees from Ji Yuan to im his prize, he had hesitated because he could still remember how he was dumped by his first maiden and then he was ''yed'' by Little Princess before he had made his escape.

    And then he got rescued by a maiden Yuxian thatter bes Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo. At one point of time, he had really though that Yuxian was only intimate with him because she wanted to know how to be a Sword Saintess.

    This triple hurt was too much for Ji Yuan to bear and since then for next 200 years, he had no affection for any maidens until Xia Jiajiaes along.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xia Jiajia has miraculous awakened something in him.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei lowered her head to smile awkwardly, "We have the fate to meet but we have no destiny to be together¡­ I understand now."

    Ji Yuan was now cursing himself for being so stupid.

    What he was thinking and nning to do waspletely the opposite. He was cursing the Trial Spirit now for sending him to two of the most sentimental divine consorts, Xu Yifei and her sister Tang Manni.

    No matter who he chooses, he will hurt the other.

    But that was not the real point.

    The real point or issue was that in the end, he could even bring himself toplete this trial at all.

    Also, he was also guilty for hurting Little Jie''Er or Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and he could feel all her love when she was embracing him tightly earlier.

    He got his chance with these 3 divine consorts but he was going to throw all his chances away; it was because he really cannot return the affections of these 3 maidens.

    When he had first entered this ce, he had thought that the maidens here were all decadent and the divine consorts in this ce were all equally depraved. So, he had no issue about gaining his trust points through them.

    But when Ji Yuan really got to know them, he had discovered that he had been greatly mistaken.

    There was nothing depraved about the spiritas maidens in this ce and he was being misled by their spirit dressing which was too revealing.

    But by now, he was actually immune to most of the revealing maidens except for the exquisite ones like the divine consorts; it was because when it was toomon, it bes nothing special at all.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, this only caused Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to like him even more as she knows that he is really a sentimental man and she could see the inner struggles of his heart with her spirit divine sense.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had seen countless of men with her spirit divine sense but she had never seen anyone as sentimental as Ji Yuan. Although he has a most beautiful look but he has never abuse it.

    While he was always talking crudely with Xiao Muhan, he had no air around him even though his cultivation is much higher than this brother of his and Xiao Muhan was free to punch him. This was totally different from the other celestials in the past that had a look of extreme arrogant in them and they looked down on their inferiors.

    Moreover, the intentions of these male celestials were to bed as many divine consorts as possible through trickery. But little did they know that the divine consorts were already aware of their depraved schemes 1000 years ago.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei simply smiled coyly to Ji Yuan, "I don''t mind at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Xiang Li was looking a little disappointed when she had heard Ji Yuan''s reply but she quickly brightened up and giggled: Big Brother, bang her before it is toote! Or screw her.

    Ji Yuanughed all of a sudden, "I am sure that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei¡­"

    "You can call me Maiden Xu Yifei in the future." Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled coyly.

    Ji Yuan weaklyughed, "I think that you have something important to ask me, right?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei nodded as she sighed, "I have been checking the Guild of the Spirit Divine Records for a way to help you. I think I may have found a solution for this. But I need to aid of your Golden Natal Divine Pearl. If Master Ji Yuan is willing to trust me to touch your immortal divine pearl again then this time with my great divine consort''s profound cultivation, I may be able to help you to remove the profound darkness in your soul sea."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Sure, why not. You know that I can''t surface this Golden Natal Divine Pearl with my current cultivation. Why don''t you enter my soul sea again to try¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan was stammering and he could continue; it was because he had thought of something. If she entered his soul sea again then he could see herpletely naked again¡­

    And Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was also flushing shyly as she looked away.

    To have such enticing and peerless maiden exposing herself in front of him too really too sinful for Ji Yuan and the previous experience had made him restless for quite a while¡­

 Chapter 773 Xu Yifei Last Farewell To Ji Yuan

    ?

    Divine Consort Xu Yifei had once again entered into Ji Yuan''s soul core through her spirit cultivation and she was now in his inner spiritual sea.

    Xiang Li had immediately popped out of the spiritual sea to greet her delightfully, "Big Sister, I am so d to see you again. My Big Brother has been ignoring me all this while and I miss seeing you!"

    As Ji Yuan could not materialize in his own soul sea, he could only frown with his profound voice, "Rubbish Xiang Li! When did I ever ignore you?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, fairy spirits do not lie."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You didn''t exactly lie Xiang Li but you keep drawing the wrong conclusions and with the wrong words¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said gently to Xiang Li, "Where is your little friend Fairy Anyang? She isn''t here?"

    "Yea, where is Anyang?" Ji Yuan asked curiously. "She can stop meditating with the Golden Natal Divine Pearl now. I am going to lend it to erm¡­ Maiden Xu Yifei to have a look."

    Xiang Li giggled, "Anyang is sleepy after meditating for so long."

    She could not tell her big brother that Anyang was still choosing her spirit clothing all this while and she can''t be bother to appear at this time.

    Ji Yuan said, "Alright then. Maiden Xu Yifei, you may start now."

    Divine Consort Xu Yifei said respectfully and she was flustered, "Master Ji Yuan then I shall start now¡­"

    It was not because she was now appearing naked but also because with her great divine consort''s divine sense, she knows that Ji Yuan was looking at every inch of her naked body¡­

    Indeed, that was what Ji Yuan was doing secretly and that was what he thought he was doing in secret.

    He was thinking: Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is even more enthralling and enticing than before¡­ this is too sinful. I can''t watch anymore¡­ or I will sink into deep depravity¡­

    But he continued to watch her keenly nevertheless since he thought: She won''t discover me. This is my soul sea after all. My cultivation knowledge may suck but I do know the limit of the spirit cultivators. Hahaha¡­

    Ji Yuan had no idea how sharp Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s spirit was, evenpared to the other divine consorts.

    So he continued to look at her crotch and her exposed pink nipples¡­

    This is too sinful. Why aren''t there anyone to stop me?

    Haha¡­

    He had decided to throw away all his hard earn goody good merit points to the abyss for now.

    And his heart demon had won this time round.

    She was not called the greatest divine consort for nothing and this was also due to her special body constitution.

    Right now, she could even sense the minute increase of Ji Yuan''s wanton yang essence as he was staring at her in secret.

    She muttered with a soft sigh but she was secretly smiling: You may say that you can''t be with me but your body ispletely honest. You can watch me as long as you like even in the future when I am not in your soul sea. I do not mind at all¡­ if I do have a future. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But she quickly raised her spirit cultivation power to feel the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that was inside Ji Yuan''s spiritual seas and to raise it up to the surface.

    When Xiang Li saw what she was doing, she began to giggle and she helped Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as well.

    While inside Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea, this Golden Natal Divine Pearl looked like a golden pearl that was thousands of times bigger than even Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei herself!

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was expecting some issues to surface the Golden Natal Divine Pearl but with Xiang Li''s help, this bes even more easier.

    She knows that Xiang Li was the Goddess'' Tear but she did not expect that Xiang Li would have such an impressive spiritual strength and that she even helped her to stabilize the gigantic Golden Divine Pearl into position above the spiritual seas.

    "Thank you, Fairy Xiang Li." There was a look of thankfulness in her eyes as she smiled in her direction.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Not at all. I ampletely useless. Heehee."

    "Who says so?" Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled. "It isn''t true¡­"

    "Well, Big Brother says I am useless and it is the absolute truth!" Xiang Li insisted firmly.

    Ji Yuan''s profound voice panicky echoed down, "Don''t mind Xiang Li. She likes to tease you. Hahaha¡­ Xiang Li, don''t disturb Maiden Xu Yifei, alright? She is more useful than you."

    When Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had heard Ji Yuan, she muttered to herself. "I am more inclined to believe Xiang Li after you have said that she isn''t useful. Also, fairy spirit can''t lie at all."

    But she had kept her thoughts to herself as she flew into the Golden Natal Divine Pearl!

    The reason why she had raised the Golden Natal Divine Pearl was because she could not enter into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea directly as her spirit would be burnt by it instead.

    So, after the Golden Natal Divine Pearl had been positioned by her spiritual strength as well as Xiang Li''s spiritual strength, she began to hastily fly into it.

    She was quite grateful to Xiang Li for helping her to bnce the Golden Natal Divine Pearl or she would have used much more spiritual strength and it would be troublesome for her once she was inside the Golden Natal Divine Pearl; she needed all her spiritual strength to borrow the profound strength of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl so that she could expulse the profound darkness that was deep inside Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea.

    "Sister Manni," She muttered quietly to herself. "Please forgive this sister of yours. This isn''t because I didn''t want you toe with me but I didn''t want you to have a bad impression of Master Ji Yuan. Having the profound darkness inside his soul sea isn''t his fault. I hope that¡­ you can be with him in the future."

    Soon, she had disappeared into the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    There was something that she did not tell Ji Yuan and that was that removing the profound darkness inside his inner spiritual sea was not going to easy and it involves a catalyst.

    And she was the catalyst that was preparing to sacrifice herself.

    She had professed her affection for Master Ji Yuan and that was enough for her. Right from the very start, she was never expecting a return for her affections because she knows that she must help him as he had a greater destiny than her and that he also has the Goddess'' Tear.

    She does have one regret in her life and that was she was unable to tell her Sister Manni what she had feared the most in the Spiritas Tower. She could only pray that she was horribly wrong in her conclusions and it was because of her own hesitation that had caused her ascension to fail instead.

    "Farewell Master Ji Yuan..."

 Chapter 774 Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array

    ?

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had quickly flown into the center of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl where dark spatial spaces surrounded her.

    But due to her uncanny spirit divine sense, she knew that she could not be wrong in her finding.

    She was now preparing to do her utmost for Ji Yuan for 2 main reasons.

    One, was that she had actually given up hope on regaining her position as a divine consort until Ji Yuan hade alone. By then, she was already disillusioned with any thoughts of ascension and even cultivation since she was the one that had given it up in the first ce.

    At her final moments of ascension, she had sensed a hint of the dark profound darkness and she had hesitated and feared it. Therefore, she had chosen to cripple her own cultivation instead.

    But no one could believe her because no one would give up willingly on their own ascension and cripple themselves.

    Even if she tells them, everyone would think that she was just looking for an excuse to cover her own failures.

    Two, was that after Ji Yuan had defeated the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, he had already be the great spiritas hero of her heart. If it was not for Ji Yuan, everyone including her Sister Tang Manni would be the depraved ves of this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    Therefore, she would not hesitate at all even if this means that she would have to given up her own life for Ji Yuan.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly set up a spirit array in this ce as she started to use her spirit energies to draw argeplicated spirit circle.

    2 hourster, a golden profound circle that was lit with white and golden runes began to in arge circle around her.

    Usually, this profound circle would require up to 3 days to draw for most divine consorts.

    But she had a special aptitude in drawing profound circles and could perform it better than most as she weaved the spirit runes into theplexities of this profound circle. These circles were sometimes called profound seals or magic seals.

    The name of this profound circle was the ''Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array''.

    It was an ancient profound cultivation art that could allow the cultivator to exchange their cultivation body with the other. And the price was that she must die.

    And she had discovered this ancient cultivation profound art after a long search. This profound art wasrgely forgotten since no one would be foolish to give up their very own life.

    This cultivation profound art required a vast amount of spiritual energies too and she could borrow the spiritual energies of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to aid her.

    "Master Ji Yuan, I will use myself as a catalyst to help you."

    She saw that Ji Yuan had a weak spiritual foundation. But after this exchange had been made, she would transfer her fairy spirit bones and inner spiritual sea to him and she would take his profound darkness into her body.

    There, she would die together with the profound darkness.

    "Master Ji Yuan, I will use my fairy spirit body in exchange for yours. Farewell, Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had told Ji Yuan that she had found a method to help him to remove the profound darkness that was in the form of a demonic sword.

    It was not exactly a lie.

    It was just that she had never told them she would be using herself as the catalyst.

    She knows the dangers of the profound darkness; it will eventually corrupt its users and once it has taken root deep inside a cultivator''s inner spiritual sea, it cannot be removed by any normal means.

    Also, her superior divine sense had told her that it was not just Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea that was being corrupted by the profound darkness but even his golden celestial body was being tainted by it.

    Therefore, even if she could remove the profound darkness from his inner spiritual sea, she would not remove the profound darkness from his golden celestial body.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The only way was for her to do an exchange using her pure spiritual body.

    This exchange would also be good for Ji Yuan''s future cultivation because his foundation in spiritual essence was weak. Even if he was strong in his spiritual essence, he would never be as good as a high level spiritas. And moreover, she was a great divine consort with a astonishing high level in her spiritual essence.

    And now, she was going to channel all her spiritual energies with the aid of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl into this ''Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array''

    As she activated this spirit profound circle, she was surrounded by a bright light and she was screaming in agony.

    The entire process would be very painful for her and if she could persist to the very end then she would seed in using her fairy spirit body to exchange for his afflicted profound darkness golden celestial body.

    As she screamed, she was also weeping aloud. "Master Ji Yuan¡­ may the Great Beyond Goddess please hear my prayers¡­ and help me to seed¡­"

    All of a sudden, much to her bewilderment, her spirit profound circle was cracking in all over the ces!

    This profound darkness was much more powerful than she was expecting¡­

    Instead of properly channeling her spiritual energies into the spirit profound circle, she was now being seized by her own spirit profound circle instead and her spiritual energies were being drained to repair its crack and she was powerless to dispel it.

    Once activated, the Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array could not be stopped until the catalyst was dead.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was in tears, "Sorry Master Ji Yuan¡­ in the end, I have¡­ failed you¡­"

    All of a sudden, the entire spirit profound circle had dissipated into nothingness and she was suddenly thrown down violently onto the ne of the spatial space.

    This shocked her; something had suddenly interfered and had destroyed the Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array!

    A feminine profound voice echoed slowly, "You really shouldn''t have yed with powers beyond your understandings."

    She was startled by this feminine voice, "There is a spirit fairy in the Golden Natal Divine Pearl? Impossible. I didn''t sense any. Who are you?"

    The feminine profound voice gently answered, "I am the original mistress of this Golden Natal Divine Pearl and I am also the one that have created it."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled as she asked while slowly getting up, "You create this Golden Natal Divine Pearl? Are you the undissipated spirit of the original creator?"

    An undissipated spirit was the remnant of the immortal divine sense of its dead creator. However only the most powerful immortals are said to be able to leave a remnant of their immortal divine sense behind.

    "I am actually alive." The feminine profound voice sounded amused.

    Great Divine Xu Yifei was shocked, "If you are alive, then why can''t I sense or see you? Who and what exactly are you?"

    The feminine profound voice sighed before saying slowly, "You have called for the Great Beyond Goddess, am I right? Yet you don''t appreciate hearing from me. Naturally I am talking to you from the Great Beyond."

    Great Divine Xu Yifei was gasping with great disbelief, "The... Great Beyond Goddess..."

 Chapter 775 Xu Yifeis New Mistress

    ?

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was now stammering and she was trembling with great fear, "You¡­ are really the Great Beyond Goddess? But¡­ the Great Beyond Goddess cannot interfere in the lower realms, am I right?"

    Just as she had thought that she was going to die, Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array was suddenly destroyed by an outside interference.

    The profound voice of the Great Beyond Goddess said, "Mm, you are not wrong to say so. But this Golden Natal Divine Pearl belongs to me so I can interfere in any ways I like. Moreover, you are now inside the spatial space of my Golden Natal Divine Pearl."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly bow down respectfully before saying, "Please pardon Xu Yifei for showing my disrespect to the Great Beyond Goddess. I really did not know. I am only borrowing the profound strength of your Golden Natal Divine Pearl to save a friend¡­"

    "You won''t seed in saving Ji Yuan." The Great Beyond Goddess said slowly.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said with great mncholy, "I have to try. He saved my honor and honor is everything to a spiritas. Also, he has also killed the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and save my city-state from the evil immortal spiritas."

    The Great Beyond Goddess said to her, "This is not what I''ve meant. He will be alright. No matter what you do, you can''t remove his profound darkness because he is the True Devil God."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was stunned, "He is the evil True Devil God¡­ and the eternal enemy of the Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    "Who says he is my eternal enemy?" The Great Beyond Goddess asked and she sounded amused.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly said with a frightful look, "Naturally, he is your inferior and not worthy of being your enemy. I am wrong. May the Great Beyond Goddess forgives me and grant me your mercies."

    The Great Beyond Goddessughed softly, "I don''t mean that. He is a¡­ good friend of mine."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was stunned, "But¡­ but the True Devil God is the embodiment of the dark profound darkness while you are the embodiment of the divine profound light¡­"

    She actually did not know how to continue¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess said with a heavy sigh, "Our cultivations may be different but it doesn''t mean that we have to be enemies¡­"

    But she quickly said, "I know who you are. You are the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei looked awkward because in front of the truly Great Beyond Goddess, she dared not called herself a ''Great''. And right now, the Great Beyond Goddess was calling her by her title.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said slowly, "Do not enter his soul sea anymore to help him. He doesn''t need any help."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said with the most utmost respect as she continued to bow down, "Your humble servant shall receive the will of the Great Beyond Goddess as my divine instructions. It is my greatest honor to have the voice of the Great Beyond Goddess as my divine instructions."

    "But may I ask something?" She took the courage to ask.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said, "You may ask."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei hesitated for a while before asking, "Are you the master of Master Ji Yuan?"

    She was curious to know this; it was because Ji Yuan had told her that this Golden Natal Divine Pearl was given to him by his master.

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not answer her but said instead, "You will know about this in the future. Consider it your lucky providences to have met me today. I am going to impart to you two divine profound circles. Whether you can master it depends on your destiny."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    With that she had disyed two divine profound circles at the same time in front of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was trembling when she saw these two divine profound circles; these two divine profound circles were extremelyplex to create and were not any immortal profound circles but were on an even higher ss. They were divine profound circles!

    Only the Great Beyond Goddess could weave these two divine profound circles instantly.

    One of the divine profound circles was an attack profound circle and the other divine profound circles was of a nature that she did not understand.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said to her, "The divine profound circle on your left is the Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle. With your special constitution and your talent in spirit cultivation, I am sure that you will learn it eventually¡­"

    She paused for her words to sink in before continuing, "As for the divine profound circle on your right, it is the Traverse Transference Divine Array. I want you to master it within 60 days. It may be useful to you. Therefore, you should learn this first and you would soon find out its uses."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was trembling, not with fear but unspeakable joy. "I shall follow the divine will of the Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    She was trembling because she had the opportunity to learn two divine profound circles, something that even the immortal spiritas may not have the opportunity to learn or find.

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued, "Good. Now I shall tell you two more things. One, you are not wrong in not ascending. This is all that I can tell you."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled; this had been her darkness for a long time and now it had suddenly been lifted by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    "Two." The Great Beyond Goddess continued. "You are now my disciple in the Spirit Divine Realm. You can''t take my cultivation divine arts without calling me your mistress, right? You shall call me ''Great Mistress'' just like the others."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was overjoyed as she quickly delivered her homage, "Great mistress, your disciple Xu Yifei greets you!"

    She took the courage to add, "Then in the future, I shall address Master Ji Yuan as my Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Brother¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess interrupted her a soft chuckle, "Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Brother? I am afraid that he has to called you as his Senior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Aunt instead¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled, "Huh?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly said, "But for now, just don''t tell him that you are my disciple yet. There is something that I want to tell him personally but this is not the time yet¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had one more thing to ask and this perplexed her, "Great Mistress, I wonder why you are showing so much favor to me? I am merely just a spirit cultivator from the lower realm."

    The Great Beyond Goddess answered quietly, "Because you are willing to sacrifice yourself for the one that you have loved. If you love someone, you must be strong to love."

 Chapter 776 Ji Yuans Difficult Decision

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the meditating and still body of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei now.

    6 hours have already passed since she had entered his soul sea and he was still staring at her enticing body that was outside.

    He could still see remember her naked body inside his soul sea just before she had disappeared into the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to find a solution for the stupid demonic sword that got struck inside his soul sea.

    This was so awkward to his face.

    He really should not have attacked the imageries up the dome just because he did not like the mask of the True Devil God. This was such a bad karma to him.

    Actually, Ji Yuan did not know that even if he had not attacked the dome imageries, the so call ''demonic'' sword of the True Devil God would have awakened too; it was precisely because the ''demonic'' sword had already gained its own sentient the minute that Ji Yuan had entered the Goddess Star Pce.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was opening all ten of his fingers as though he wanted to w something and he was looking at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s thinly veiled bosoms.

    He was struggling with his own inner demons, especially when he saw that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was now sweating profusely and he could see the beads of perspiration that were on her forehead and bosoms.

    This made her even more enticing.

    "If I were to take advantage of her, she won''t know right?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Of course she won''t know. I''ll let you know if shees out of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. We can take all the advantage as you want."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "Xiang Li, what do you mean by ''we''? It is only me!"

    Xiang Li protested immediately, "We share the same body so it is ''we''."

    "Stupid Xiang Li!" Ji Yuan nearly fainted from her logic. "It is my mind that is controlling my body and not yours."

    Xiang Li of course was not going to agree with this because she was the one that was collecting her harem so she giggled, "Big Brother, this is the best time to bang her. By the time she knows about it, the raw rice will be cooked!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, you are asking me to vite a kind maiden like her who is willing to spend time to help me? I can''t believe that you are saying this at all. Seriously, I really need to talk to you about the morals of the celestial cultivators¡­"

    "But Big Brother, why are your fingers almost at her bosoms then?" Xiang Li giggled.

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Can''t you see that she is perspiring? I am just thinking if I should help her to clean off her perspiration. I am not like you. I am a gentleman of the sword and is not a beast of a man¡­"

    Xiang Li protested immediately as she cut him in, "Big Brother, Anyang isn''t here. No one will know except for us. Not 3, Not 4 or even 5. Only the two of us know this secret."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning, "Goody Anyang isn''t here. Hahaha¡­"

    Then he started to look at the meditating and enticing beautiful form of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as he swallowed his own saliva. "This is too sinful. We shouldn''t be doing this at all."

    Xiang Li said, "It is alright, Big Brother. She likes you and she will forgive you."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "This is bad Xiang Li. We really shouldn''t be doing this."

    "But you have already seen her naked twice over." Xiang Li pointed out.

    Ji Yuan gasped with a sudden realization, "That is right. I have already seen her naked twice. But seeing and touching is different. If we got caught, our trust points will be -1000 immediately¡­"

    "But¡­" he immediately said. "Maybe a quick touch will be alright? Do you agree with me, Xiang Li?"

    "Absolutely, Big Brother." Xiang Li giggled, "Go on! Be a real man!"

    This goes on for another hour without Ji Yuan doing anything as he struggled with his heart demon.

    All of a sudden Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was suddenly coughing weakly and she had suddenly fallen into Ji Yuan''s embrace!

    Ji Yuan delivered ast message to Xiang Li in his soul sea: Oh, crap Xiang Li! You lie to me! You didn''t warn me!

    Xiang Li protested immediately: I am talking to you, Big Brother. How can I be at two ces at the same time?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I feel dumb talking to Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan was sincerely hugging Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei now and he was trying to warm her cold body with his profound energies.

    As he warmed her, he saw that her bosoms were pressed upon his chest warmly as well¡­

    He thought: This is too sinful. I am really not trying to take advantage of her¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was slowly opening her eyes and she was muttering weakly, "It is alright. I am fine¡­"

    But there was a look of delight in her eyes when she saw that she was in Ji Yuan''s embrace and she began to smile although it was a rather weak smile. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She thought with an endeavour look at him: He is indeed the blessed by the Great Beyond Goddess... I am not wrong about him... I am a disciple of the Great Beyond Goddess... thanks to him...

    Then she said weakly to Ji Yuan, "I am really sorry, Master Ji Yuan. I''ve did my best but I can''t help you. But don''t worry, you won''t be in any danger. This, I can promise you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he patted her back to console her, "It is really alright. We can find a new solution in the future. Hahaha..."

    All of a sudden, the door to this personal room had been pushed over and it was Great Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    And she was suddenly gasping when she saw the two of them hugging together and her eyes were suddenly bleary.

    She had waited for the past 7 hours but the longer that she had waited, the more impatiently she was. It was because the other 3 divine consorts seemed to be getting friendlier and friendlier by the minute while she was still a lonely divine consort.

    And none of the other 3 divine consorts had invited her to join them.

    She had thought that her Sister Yifei was just trying to tell Ji Yuan something very important but it had taken 7 hours instead.

    She did not know that her Sister Yifei was trying to learn the two divine profound circles inside the Golden Natal Divine Pearl and she was being guided by the Great Beyond Goddess; so this consumed quite a bit of time.

    Therefore, she had decided to check her Sister Yifei''s personal room instead.

    The female followers outside could not stop her because she was not only their Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s sister but she was also a divine consort.

    The reason why she could suddenly barge in was because the defensive formations here could not stop her either since she was not an outsider.

    But when she had entered her Sister Yifei''s personal room, she was not only shocked to see her sister in Ji Yuan''s embrace but she was also perspiring heavily. Not only that, even her bed wet was also wet.

    It was a no brainer that the two of them had just gone through a long lovemaking session.

    So, this was the secret thing that her Sister Yifei had wanted to tell Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan quickly loosened his embrace from Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as he said panicky, "This isn''t what you think it is. I can exin¡­"

    Today his trust points will definitely be -1000 with Divine Consort Tang Manni for sure as he could see from her hurtful look¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said coldly and her voice was trembling, "The two of you are too much!"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had immediately shed to where Divine Consort Tang Manni was at and was suddenly embracing her, "Sister Manni, please hear from your Sister Yifei. This isn''t really what you think it is. We didn''t do anything improper and I am just trying to help Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed tearfully, "Really? But seeing is believing. And the two of you have been in here for 7 hours. Maybe you have not done the deed now but what about just now? Are you going to tell me that he hasn''t seen your body? Do you dare to make an oath to the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan immediately said, "What your sister says is the whole truth. We are really innocent and I haven''t seen the chaste body of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. I can make an oath to prove our innocence¡­"

    Xiang Li immediately pointed out: Big Brother. Actually, you have seen her body twice over. So, you have better don''t make this oath.

    Ji Yuan gasped to Xiang Li: Oh crap. I''ve forgotten¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had suddenly said gently to Divine Consort Tang Manni, "Sister Manni, I know that you like Master Ji Yuan and I''ll give you my fullest support. I hope that you can be with him."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled as she disyed a look of disbelief at her sister, "Then what about you? Don''t you like Master Ji Yuan too?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said gently, "We can like and love him together. Aren''t we sisters?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was suddenly flustered, "This¡­ this is impossible! We are the spiritas nobles. Since the time of our Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, we have never taken more than 1 cultivation partner¡­"

    "You are mistaken, my sister." Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei interrupted gently as she continued, "It is whether Master Ji Yuan is willing to take us into his harem and not the other way round."

    All of a sudden, the teary eyes of Divine Consort Tang Manni had brightened up and she was looking straight into Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had naturally heard their conversations and he was bitterly saying to himself: Actually, you ought to ask me for my opinion first. What if my answer is a no?

    But he dared not say it out because he knows that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was helping him to clear this misunderstanding or he would be in deep shit.

    So between this and the big shit, he was forced to nod rather forcefully and with a straight face as he looked at the teary Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was muttering softly and rather shyly, "We... we can share... Master Ji Yuan?"

 Chapter 777 The Best Of Ji Yuans Life

    ?

    Ji Yuan was at a loss on how to handle Divine Consort Tang Manni; somehow, he had no idea how he could keep grieving her and he could only temporary ept Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s constion to her sister.

    He could not stay in the Spirit Divine Realm after 70 days and he had no wish to leave behind any broken hearts.

    And Xiang Li had reminded him: Big Brother, remember this. Even if you can obtain 100 Trust Points now, the trial isn''t over yet. Remember what the Trial Spirit has said? She said you have to maintain your 100 Trust Points until the veryst time. So, you must keep your deceit till to the veryst and don''t screw up!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was suddenly cursing that stupid Trial Spirit: The stupid rules of that stupid Trial Spirit¡­

    Xiang Li warned him: Learn to smile. Remember how she seized your golden talismans and sent you to the hardest part of the trial.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had actually forgotten that he was in the ''hardest'' part of the trial location now.

    It was indeed so now because he had actually liked Xu Yifei and Tang Manni.

    Actually, when he first saw ''Han Muyuan'' aka Divine Consort Tang Manni, he was already moved by this extremely beautiful and cheerful maiden that was mesmerizing in his eyes. And he was actually secretly looking at her.

    But somehow, he had ended up constantly grieving her.

    It was no wonder that the spiritas had called the celestials as griefers.

    Now he felt like he would rather work in their spirit mines to polish his mine craft rather than facing these divine consorts to hurt them.

    But this may probably be the only SS Trial in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that he was going to encounter before the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth closed its trial in a few weeks and he wanted its SS Rewards by being in the top.

    He definitely haspetitors from the other celestials because now that the trial portal is opened, goodness knows how many celestials would be able to enter the Spirit Divine Realm on a daily basis.

    So, it may not be 300 celestials and it could be 3000 celestials or even 30 000 celestials as the time passed when more and more celestials had ovee their previous trials and were out hunting for more trials for their rewards in the upper final trial.

    And the male celestials would all be trying to bang Xu Yifei or Tang Manni, even Little Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and Dongfang Xin since they were all divine consorts.

    Just thinking about this was enough to cause Ji Yuan''s face to be green.

    So right now, he was being apanied by Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and Divine Consort Tang Manni down the stairs where the dining areas were.

    It was because Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had told him that he ought to at least say a few words to the divine consorts that were still waiting for him.

    She felt a little guilty for making them wait for such a long time.

    Ji Yuan had immediately caught sight of the 3 divine consorts below and just as he was going forward to ask them politely to leave, he was quite startled to see that the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was also here.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had quickly walked forward to say to him, "Junior brother, are¡­ you alright? I have been waiting for hours for you."

    She had rushed here the minute that she had heard that that cultivator that had defeated the immortal divine lord was actually her junior brother Ji Yuan.

    And she was anxious to know the extend of his injuries or conditions.

    Inside her heart, she had actually liked Ji Yuan but she had to pretend be cold toward him because she wanted him to focus on getting the attention of the divine consorts and to gain as much Trust Points as possible from them.

    But if she was too close to him, then the divine consorts would be envious; it was because the Smiling Divine Maiden knows the deadliest of her enthralling charms.

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted to see his senior sister again and his eyes were brightened, "Senior sister, you are here too? This is good. Are you well?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered weakly, "I am well. Speaks for yourself first. Are you well?"

    Behind her, the 3 divine consorts Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun were also asking panicky. "Great Spiritas Hero, are you really well? You have been inside for so long?"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er added, "Yuan Beluga, do you want toe to my vi instead? It is better than staying in a tavern¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Tang Manni hummed, "If my sister''s tavern isn''tfortable, Master Ji Yuan can choose toe to my vi."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he took a quick look around; he saw that Xiao Muhan was not around but he could see Maiden Flower Ju was still sitting at her counter.

    All of a sudden, he had a brilliant idea in his head and he was suddenly pretending to be injured by staggering in front of his senior sister and the five divine consorts.

    All 6 maidens were panicky gasping after him, "Are you alright?!"

    The multitude of affections were overwhelming and even the other female followers were all gasping with shock when they saw that Ji Yuan was staggering weakly.

    Ji Yuan then pretended to say weakly, "You should all go off first. I am afraid that this unique condition of mine can only be cured by my senior sister Chu Lixue. If only she is willing to treat me in my personal room, I will be alright but it may take several hours and may be exhausting to my senior sister¡­"

    He had purposely use the word unique ''condition of mine'' so that his lies would not be discovered so easily.

    "I know that all of you here have many spirit herbs and the resources to help me but I want to be honest with all of you. This unique ailment of mine is due to learning my master''s Yang Invincible Profound Sword Art and the Yang Invincible Internal Profound Art. Only my senior sister is able to help me on this. It may be called ''Invincible'' but in order to be ''Invincible'', there is a heavy invincible price to pay off."

    Ji Yuan began to sigh woefully, "These two Yang Invincible profound arts are invented by my master who is also my senior sister''s father. Therefore only she knows best on how to resolve my ailment."

    When the 5 divine consorts had heard that this was due to a sword cultivation art and also an internal profound art, they had to bitterly ept defeat; it was because they are spirit cultivators and their strength were not in the sword cultivation profound arts or the internal cultivation profound arts.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly said to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Maiden Chu, may you please help Master Ji Yuan to his personal room and see what you can do?"

    The other 4 divine consorts were also panicky looking at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and saying to her with plenty of anxiety on their countenances.

    "Please help Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    "You must help Yuan Beluga¡­"

    "We can''t afford to have our great spiritas hero having a permanent damage to his cultivation core¡­"

    "Maiden Chu Lixue is his senior sister and they are both celestials. Lucky she is here today¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked a little shocked when all 5 divine consorts were pleading with her to stay behind to help Ji Yuan.

    She was thinking with a look of disbelief at Ji Yuan: Can''t you all see that he is only pretending? What ailment? It is only his yang essence that is ballooning and not because of my father''s profound arts...

    But before she could even answer, the 5 divine consorts had all pulled or pushed her toward Ji Yuan. "Please help him!"

    For once, the 5 divine consorts all had the same goal.

    Ji Yuan''s health to them was more important than any of their bickering and they were willing to put this aside first!

    Even Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was saying respectfully to her, "Maiden Chu Lixue, please stay behind to treat our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. You have my absolute permission to stay here."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled when even her patron and the divine consort that she was trying to gratify by earning her Trust Points was saying the same to her.

    She just could not say no or this would mean that her Trust Points would be lowered.

    So, she reluctantly said with a soft sigh with a sense of loss and defeat in her golden eyes, "Let''s see what I can do then¡­"

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted; he had finally seeded in holding onto his senior sister and he probably got more time to talk to her this very night.

    He was now thinking: Tonight, must be the blessed Chapter 777 of my life. I ought to quickly make the full use of this before I hit the unlucky Chapter 778 of my life or else, I would be screwed.

    And he was already staring at the revealing new clothing of his senior sister, or rather her enthralling ample body.

 Chapter 778 The Senate Of The Divine Consorts

    ?

    The 3 divine consorts Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Dongfang Xin had to excuse themselves from the tavern first as they did not know how long the treatment would going tost for Ji Yuan and it was now gettingte.

    It was also because they had something important to discuss with their nobles first before making the announcement to make Ji Yuan their city-state first male spiritas hero as well as the title of a divine lord.

    For that, even Divine Consort Tang Manni had to excuse herself first.

    All 4 of them would make an appearance at the senate tomorrow to table their case and of course, they would also wee Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to the senate from tomorrow onward.

    The society of the divine consorts arepletely different from the authoritarian society of the celestials.

    In their society, the divine consorts are the ultimatew-givers in their city-states and any maiden that could advance to a divine consort would be the neww-giver of their city-states and their alliances.

    Any city-states that did not have a divine consort, which are actually quitemon would ally with an existing alliance with a divine consort.

    But even city-states with their own divine consorts may also ally with another city-state or even multiple city-states to form an alliance.

    The city-state of the Snowy Pavilion itself controls 20 smaller city-states that are without a divine consort and it has a significant territory in the fertile crescent ins of the Peloponnesian Great Continent, one of the five great continents in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    And the city-state of the Snowy Pavilion is also 1 of the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad in the vast fertile crescent ins of the Peloponnesian Great Continent.

    The distances between the major city-states are actually quite vast and it would take a long time to travel through by foot and the best rmendation for transportation would be on the flying spirit mounts instead.

    The rebels have hideouts in about 100 of the city-states in the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, mostly in the major city-states and its surrounding city-states. Although it sounds a lot but it was actually not since the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad had about 800 city-states altogether.

    Now there are four noble ranks for the spiritas; Divine Consort, Spirit Consort, Fairy Concubine and Spirit Concubine.

    Other than the divine consorts, the other 3 noble ranks are able to vote in the senate.

    The lowest of the spiritas noble the Spirit Concubine has 1 vote.

    The second noble rank of the Fairy Concubines has 10 votes.

    The third noble rank of the Spirit Consort has 100 votes.

    In order to lead a city-state, thew-givers which are the divine consorts will try to garner as many votes as possible from the spiritas nobles that are following them.

    That is the reason why the weaker divine consorts like Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er have formed their own alliance against the other 2 powerful divine consorts.

    A weak divine consort like Ding Jie''Er has very little female spiritas nobles under her and they are often the lowest ranking nobles.

    In order to pass a neww, a divine consort must gather 80% of the votes, which is an extremely difficult thing especially if the city-state have several divine consorts fighting for supremacy.

    And under the sacredws of their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, a self-governing city-state must have at least 3 divine consorts or else it would have to join an alliance.

    Naturally this rule did not apply to the Ancient First Divine Consort who rules all the city-states and she also happened to be the first divine consort.

    But this rule is meant for the future city-states to prevent them from degenerating into in-fighting when the numbers of divine consorts have increased in the future aspared to the rule of the divine lords who were always waging wars on the city-state of one another. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The dissolution and the new formation of alliances are allowed in the new era of the divine consorts as long as there are at least 3 divine consorts in a major city-state.

    The fertile crescent ins of the Peloponnesian Great Continent was the birthce of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina and therefore, there are more divine consorts than anywhere else.

    In fact, there are 36 other divine consorts in the other 11 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    The irony is that the other regions have city-states that are tens of times more city-states than the city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    This is actually the main reason why there is an alliance of the 12 major city-states in the first ce, tobat the bigger size of the more numerous city-states.

    Although the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad looks powerful with its numerous divine consorts but there were some other city-states that have no less than 40 divine consorts and they have formed their super city-states into an empire.

    In fact, there are 3 spiritas empires in the Spirit Divine Realm that have their own Empress Consort after getting more than 80% of the popr vote.

    But the focus would be this part of the region in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    And tomorrow will be a different thing in the senate.

    It is because for the very first time, all 5 divine consorts will be voting for a male great spiritas hero and he is Ji Yuan.

    Not only that, they will also be voting for their very first divine lord too. But this vote will be very tricky. First, they have to pass their own senate first in their own city-state and then they can table it to the council of senates which consisted of the rest of the 11 major city-states that formed the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    It is because a divine lord is a noble title and it is also a male title.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan is a celestial and is not a true spiritas.

    And a divine lord is a male title that has not been used since the time of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina.

    But for the 5 divine consorts, they did not care for the opposition and decided to press ahead even though they may not get the 80% of the vote.

    As for appointing a hero, this is their own city-state affair and they did not need to table it to the council of senates.

    But nevertheless, the 5 divine consorts were happy today because tomorrow they would make Ji Yuan into a Great Spiritas Hero.

    And they had already made sure that the news of Ji Yuan''s heroism in killing an immortal divine lord had already spread throughout the city-state and even to the other city-states.

    2, This chapter sets the setting and mood for the appearance of the Ancient First Consort Ai Tina.

    3. The next chapter will be between Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden since JY considered this chapter to be his most unlucky chapter in thest chapter:X

 Chapter 779 Ji Yuans Trust Points

    ?

    After the 4 divine consorts Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin had bade Ji Yuan farewell, Ji Yuan had returned with the Smiling Divine Maiden to his personal room for his ''treatment''.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was really alone with the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue in his personal room.

    And he was grinning while he looked up and down at her as he drooled over her enthralling figure, "Senior Sister, how have you been so far? That day you have left just too suddenly. I didn''t even have the time to say my proper farewell to you."

    The coquettish looking Smiling Divine Maiden sighed softly, "Ji Yuan, you''re really something today. Indeed, I have not seen you after that day but I have heard that you have picked Divine Consort Tang Manni to be your patron that night and the other 3 divine consorts are fighting to have you as well. I just don''t believe how you manage to pull that off after I''ve lectured you."

    Today, she had seen even the docile looks that were on all the divine consorts and saw their literally looks of worship when they were looking at Ji Yuan.

    She is a maiden and she can understand maidens more than the men, especially a maiden like her that enjoys tricking the both maidens and men in the Bliss City of the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That is because your future lord is just too awesome. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li could not resist a chuckle in his soul sea; Well said, Big Brother!

    Ji Yuan had already decided to remove all the follies that he hadmitted when he had first stepped into the Spirit Divine Realm as he painted a more heroic version of himself in front of his senior sister.

    All of a sudden, the Smiling Divine Maiden had taken out her celestial robe and put it around her body and this stunned Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan who had been feasting his names upon her was stammering, "Senior sister, you''re covering up?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled coquettishly as she smiled divinely, "Why shouldn''t I? This is my usual dressing and moreover I am in a man''s room."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did my lucky 777 chapter ends already?

    He forced himself to smile while imagining her bosoms below her sensuous robe, "There is saying, you know. We should always adjust to the local customs when in a new ce."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden naturally knows what Ji Yuan was thinking about but she just did not want to fulfill his male fantasies.

    Instead, she smiled divinely. "Say, what do you want me here for? Or else, I''ll be leaving soon."

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Don''t! If you leave too early, you will lose your trust points with your Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and possibly even the other divine consorts for¡­"

    All of a sudden, he was grinning. "You know, for not treating me properly."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled for a while, "But you look so well and there is nothing wrong with you, right?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course I am well. But don''t you want to hear my heroic ounts of my fight with the immortal divine lord? This is a first-hand ount from my personal mouth. Haha¡­"

    "No thanks." The Smiling Divine Maiden chuckled back, "I''ll learnt it from the others. Your ount is always so exaggerated."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Alright then. I shall be leaving now." The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled as she moved her beautiful form elusively away from Ji Yuan.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Senior sister," Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning. "If you leave now, I will cken your name and cause your trust points to be 0 in front of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin. I can even ensure you that you can''t even get a single trust point from the other divine consorts as well."

    The divine smile on the Smiling Divine Maiden had suddenly ceased, "Ji Yuan, you are ckmailing me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I wouldn''t dare to ckmail my future consort but you are just too slippery. Senior sister, have you forgotten the number of life and death battles that we have fought together while in the Bliss City''s arena and in the Demonic Divine Realm? Isn''t it fate that we have also met in the Spirit Divine Realm? Also, don''t forget that you are my betrothed. It isn''t unreasonable to ask you to stay to have a little chat with me?"

    Xiang Li point out: And strip for Big Brother too!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden disyed a coyly look as she shook her head delicately, "You are really a little rascal just like my father likes to call you. I haven''t married you yet and you''re already thinking of bullying me. Say, I do want to ask you a few things and perhaps, we can really chat."

    Ji Yuan was delighted that his senior sister was able to stay and he wasughing jovially.

    Actually, the Smiling Divine Maiden was just looking for an excuse to talk with Ji Yuan but she did not want to be looked upon as too wanton as she had a dark history in the Bliss City. Unlike her two sisters Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, she was guilty about her past.

    It was especially so when she had found her mother''s memory stone in the Great Valha Hall where the bones of more than 1 million dead celestialsy.

    Like her mother consort, they both had a most mesmerizing divine presence and they did not want their lord consort to be too attached to them.

    Ji Yuan was just too d that he could talk with his senior sister so he chuckled, "What is it? You can ask me anything that you want to."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked him curiously, "What is your trust points with the divine consorts? I am actually curious to know about it."

    Ji Yuan hadpletely forgotten to check his trust points, mainly because previously he got into a hopeless situation with all the other divine consorts and he even got a -250 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    So, he started to rub his ck ring and to check his trust points with all the other divine consorts.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei: 100 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni: 100 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er: 100 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin: 100 Trust Points.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun: 100 Trust Points.

    He blinked his eyes with a look of great shock; he could understand his Trust Points with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei but the others?!

    Didn''t he have a -250 Trust Points with Divine Consort Tang Manni? Howe he has 100 Trust Points now?

    And what the heck happens with the other 3 divine consorts as well?

    He seriously could not remember what exactly did he do to them¡­

    And he was beginning to gulp weakly.

 Chapter 780 I Shall Not Be Green

    ?

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden saw his shocked look, she tried tofort him by smiling. "It is really alright. Sometimes your expectations will be much higher than the result. Take for example, after what I did for Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, I''ve only 30 Trust Points with her. I was actually expecting a much higher result. It is a long and difficult path to 100 Trust Points. I guess that the only way to gain more trust points is to be their champions in the Spiritas Tower."

    And she had reached out tenderly tofort Ji Yuan.

    "If you do not want to share with me. It is perfectly alright."

    Ji Yuan looked extremely awkwardly when he looked at his senior sister and consort-to-be, "It is not that I do not want to share. I have 100 Trust Points with all 5 of them¡­"

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden had heard him, she almost fainted on the spot.

    She gasped aloud, "100 Trust Points? With all 5 of them?! Did you screw all of them?"

    Ji Yuan turned to look nkly at her, "That''s the big problem. I didn''t bang anyone of them yet."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could not believe what she was hearing, "This is so unfair. You are probably the only male celestial that scores the highest."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "There are other male celestials that you know? Or you mean Xi Huangdi?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden giggled divinely, "Stop thinking about that Great Saint Xi Huangdi. He is dead now."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "He is dead now?! What happens?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled, "He just got what he had deserved and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin shared with me half of his loot in his spatial space."

    Ji Yuan was greatly relieved, "That is good. At least I feel so safe now¡­"

    "I am actually referring to the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong. He is not only handsome but he is also perfect in all ways. He is truly a knowledgeable cultivator and we get along quite well while I am with the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled divinely.

    She added, "I''ve never met a cultivator that can be a full talent in so many profound cultivation arts."

    Ji Yuan almost fainted on the spot as he stammered, "What?! I thought he is dead? He isn''t a good man. Don''t talk to him!"

    What the heck was all his male rivals popping out from?!

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had merely taught him a lesson and had thrown him out to the streets instead of really feeding him to the fishes.

    Afterward, the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had found his way to the camp of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin to be her champion.

    Xiao Muhan and Ji Yuan had actually met Jiang Guanzhong on their very first day in this city-state and he was eating at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s tavern.

    The way Ji Yuan looked at him, he was just a trouble maker.

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Senior sister, I hope that you don''t ever talk to him again!"

    No one shall green him!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled divinely, "We are in the same camp. How is it possible for me not to talk with him? Moreover, I have many things to learn from him¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her coldly and he was raising his voice, "You are my future consort. He isn''t a good man and he is full of ulterior motives. He is only a perfect hero because he is only trying to impress the maidens. This type of perfect hero in cultivation stories always have maidens falling in love left and right because of his godly cultivation talents! So, stay away from him!"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked a little startled as she started to nod lightly; she had never seen Ji Yuan shouting at her like this. Not even when she was with Xi Huangdi whom he had disliked.

    She had wanted to argue with him that cultivation stories were different from reality but she held herself in-check and said with a faint smile, "Alright then."

    In this situation, she could still be smiling and that was why she was called the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled that his senior sister could agree so readily and he was starting to regret shouting at his senior sister and losing himself.

    In terms of cultivation, his senior sister is actually his cultivation superior and she is also a peaked great saintess.

    Therefore, in terms of cultivation seniority or prot¨¦g¨¦ ranking, he actually has no right to rebuke his senior sister like this.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden began to sigh softly, "Actually I do have a 6th rank divine pill that Divine Consort Dongfang Xin has given me. Originally, I have the intention to ask the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong to check for me but now I can''t. I have actually gone to the trouble of finding a high level spirit alchemist to check this divine pill for me but as this divine pill is made in the Celestial Realm, it is difficult for the high level spirit alchemist here to tell me exactly what it is. As you know, 6th rank divine pill is the highest ranking profound pill in our Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan immediately said with a straight line, "Fear not, senior sister. I happen to be an expert in this."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "You''re kidding with your senior sister, am I right?"

    Even Xiang Li was asking Ji Yuan with a look of disbelief.

    But Ji Yuan had to prove that he was better than the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong so he said with all seriousness, "This is my secret talent."

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Really, big brother?

    Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li: Not me. You! Luckily you are still around. Aren''t you a Trial Spirit that have seen countless numbers of profound pills?

    Xiang Li began to giggle: Oh!!! Of course I am an expert! Count on me, Big Brother!

    She was actually thinking to herself: Even if I am not an expert, I mustn''t let Big Brother knows about this first.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was pleasantly surprised as she took out a divine profound pill, "This is the divine pill that Divine Consort Dongfang Xin has given me. She says this is from Xi Huangdi and she has no idea what it is."

    Ji Yuan began to take this profound pill curiously to y around his fingers but secretly he was asking Xiang Li in his soul sea: Well Xiang Li, what is this?

    Xiang Li began to mutter: Well¡­ this is¡­ erm¡­

    6th profound pills are actually beyond Xiang Li to know, especially when she had never seen this before and her trial in the past was actually a medium level trial.

    The only way she could obtain high level cultivation slips, high level profound pills and divine swords in the past were for the unfortunate cultivators to die and she would store their cultivation items as a trial reward.

    Xiang Li said to Ji Yuan with an awkward look: Big Brother, you should try to taste it first so that I can know what it is.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Taste it?! You can''t tell?

    Xiang Li giggled weakly: Big Brother, this is a 6th rank divine pill. Of course, you have to taste it first or else it won''t be urate what kind of profound pill it is.

    Ji Yuan began to smile: s! This makes sense¡­

    So, he tasted it by putting it into his mouth and it was quite sweet.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was shocked, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing with my divine pill?!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Rx senior sister. I am not trying to swallow your divine pill. I am just trying to taste it¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden panicky tried to take away her divine pill from Ji Yuan''s mouth, "I know that you are a fake. Return it to me immediately! This is my cultivation fortune, not yours!"

    She had thought that Ji Yuan was just trying to steal her cultivation divine pill or ying a joke on her.

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan panicky shouted because he was suddenly choking. "Wait! Wait!"

    "Return it to me!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was no longer shouting clumsily as he entangled with the Smiling Divine Maiden and he had a sheepish look. "Senior sister, I told you to wait but now it is toote. I''ve already swallowed this divine pill and I feel kinda funny."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was speechless, "You what?!"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly and he really looked sheepish, "I did tell you to wait, right? But you keep rushing me that I have identally swallowed it."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    Xiang Li had immediately fled deep into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea after she had realized the big blunder that she had caused to her Big Brother; it was because she saw the changes that were now happening in her Big Brother''s cultivation core...

 Chapter 781 MrBeast Ji Yuan (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now telling the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, "Senior sister, I feel weird¡­"

    It was because as soon as he had swallowed this divine pill, it had reacted with his profound energies within him and started to disperse its profound energies throughout all his inner spiritual sea.

    This divine pill was actually from Xi Huangdi and he had intended to use it on the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    It had a dual effect depending if the victim was a maiden or a man.

    If used on a maiden, it would cause her yang energies to dissipate very quickly while her yin energies would also increase at the same time and she would crave for the yang essence of a man or she would die when the cultivation core copse through the imbnce between yin and yang.

    If used on a man, it would cause his yin energies to dissipate very quickly while his yang energies would also increase at the same time and he would crave for the yin essence of a maiden or he would die when the cultivation core copse through the imbnce between yin and yang.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped with great shock as she could not believe that Ji Yuan had actually swallowed her divine pill without knowing what it was.

    She quickly reached grabbed his wrist and probed with her divine sense to check what was happening and was shocked that his yin energies were shattering and that if he did not receive a strong infusion of yin essence, his cultivation core would soon explode.

    Also, his yang energies were also rapidly increasing at the same time and Ji Yuan was lustfully looking at her.

    Ji Yuan naturally knows what was happening to his cultivation core and he had quickly used all his profound strength to suppress it but it was already toote plus it was the most powerful 6th rank divine profound pill.

    He had broken into uncontroble perspiration as he lost control of his profound animus and he could only weakly say to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Senior sister, please help me."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could not smile in this situation as she panicky said, "Ji Yuan. Wait here for me! I''ll be back quickly. I''m going to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel to get you a harlot¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly caught hold of her hands, "Senior sister, it is only dusk. Don''t you know that brothels don''t open until it is fully night?"

    "Don''t worry." The Smiling Divine Maiden tried to shake his hand off her, "I happen to be friends with some of the maidens in the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel. They should be able to help¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Senior sister¡­ have you ever consider that they may be in cultivation or not in the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel?" Ji Yuan said panicky as he held tight onto her soft slender hands.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gently patted on Ji Yuan''s hands to loosen his grips as well as tofort him, "Don''t worry, I have the spirit stones. I will surely get one harlot for you at any price."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "By the time you have returned with one, it is already toote. Also, can''t you tell that this is a 6th rank divine pill and I need the yin essence of a high level cultivation maiden in order to be able to help me?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped, "I am too panicky and that is why I didn''t think of all these. How did you manage to keep yourself so level-headed in this awful situation?"

    Ji Yuan was now flushing hotly and he answered weakly without loosening his grip on her hands, "Do I look like I am thinking straight at this moment? Senior sister, you ought to help me or I am screwed."

    "But you can''t screw me or I''ll be screwed too." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled weakly. "Let me go now and I''ll get Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei here. Maybe she will be able to help you."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Do you know that you''re supposed to cure me of my ailment but now you are going out to seek help for my ailment? What would Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei or the others think?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden gasped exasperatingly, "How do I know that you will really get an ailment and it will be like this¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had interrupted her by tightly hugging onto her and he could feel her bosoms pressing against him. This caused him to be even more flush and he had 50 shades of red on his countenance, "Senior sister, you ought to be responsible for this. After all, this is your divine pill that is causing this ailment to me."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could feel the hot body of Ji Yuan that was threatening to overwhelm her as she tried to push him away but he continued to hold onto her tightly, refusing to let her go.

    She was thinking if she should use her profound strength to push him away instead but this would not be so nice to do so since Ji Yuan was in such a weaken state now because of her divine pill. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    So she smiled weakly, "Can I don''t do this at all?"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Or you prefer that I tell everyone what you did to me and you will lose all your trust points for drugging a great spiritas hero?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    This is a ckmail¡­

    Ji Yuan had already pushed the Smiling Divine Maiden onto his bed and he was hotly kissing her lips by pressing her down.

    This caused a flustered Smiling Divine Maiden to open her lips slightly as she felt his wet kiss¡­

    Ji Yuan gasped weakly, "Senior sister, before I lose all my senses and be the beast of a man, please co-operate with me. I may be very violence if I be the beast of a man¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled weakly, "If you do be the beast of a man, I will use my divine sword to chop off your little brother. Then there is nothing you can do to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The reason why Ji Yuan had not sunk into depravity yet and that he could still reason was because of his strong mental willpower.

    While kissing the Smiling Divine Maiden passionately, Ji Yuan was already putting his hands to loosen her robe underneath him.

    To his great delight, there was no profound force that was binding her robe...

    Or this would be problematic with his current profound strength.

    So he quickly loosened her belt and slipped his hands inside her robe to feel her body.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden could feel an electrifying feeling running over her when Ji Yuan''s hot fingers touched her body and she was trembling.

    She was further startled when Ji Yuan was moving up and down his fingers on her pair of jade breasts and this caused her bosoms to tremble with his touches.

    It seemed to her that her body had been broken into many countless pieces and she was unable to move.

    In the end, she muttered with a hot soft moan as she returned Ji Yuan''s kiss when allowing him to fondle her body. "I didn''t expect that my first time with you will be this unromantic. Please do not tell the others¡­ and be gentle with me¡­"

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was already very flustered and only his strong willpower had kept him from losing his mind but he was also excited that he would be kissing and touching his unattainable senior sister today.

    He could only pray that he could endure until he could bang his senior sister as he did not want to miss anything by losing his sanity or this would be awkward to his face.

    2, I wonder if the readers still remember Xi Huangdi''s evil divine pill that he had and it was now swallowed by Ji Yuan by ident.

 Chapter 782 MrBeast Ji Yuan (2) R18

    ?

    Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden were now naked on the bed, as Ji Yuan stripped everything from her, including his own clothing.

    Hot flushes could be seen in Ji Yuan''s face as well as from his well-toned body.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as he stared at the coquettish and enticing body of Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden and he was filled with lust for her.

    And it was not because of the divine pill that he had just swallowed.

    Any normal man will also fill with lust when they are looking at the divine Chu Lixue because this is the feeling when they were looking at her.

    Chu Lixue was flustered and she had shied her head coyly away from Ji Yuan; it was because he had suddenly stopped to admire her and this was the very first time that she had been intimate with a man.

    This waspletely different from her doll avatar since her doll avatar could only send imageries but not the sensations. And most of the time in the past, she could not even be bothered to view the imageries from her doll avatar because she knows that the Dragon Faction was extremely depraved with her doll avatar.

    Ji Yuan was now staring at her bosoms and upon her nipples which were perking like red beans. The sight was just too wondrous and he was appreciating her.

    Then he started to look down below her waist and toward her crotch area¡­

    Chu Lixue was greatly embarrassed by Ji Yuan''s stares and she said mncholy, "This is all too weird. How can''t you''re not a beast of a man yet? And you still got the mood to appreciate me?"

    Right now, she was hoping that Ji Yuan wouldpletely be driven by lust and act like a bestial man. This should be the normal effect of such a profound pill.

    She did not know that Ji Yuan willpower was empowered by his Divine Heart Recite, a divine intricacy heart form of the highest level.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was barely holding upon himself just by the sheer will of his Absolute Spirits of the Divine Heart Recite and his Undying Fighting Spirits.

    While his body was weak but his formidable willpower to remain as sane as possible drives him forward because he wanted to appreciate the exquisite beauty of his senior sister with his very own eyes.

    "Maybe you are not as tempting as you think you are supposed to be?" Ji Yuan grinned but it was a weak grin and he had forced it through his beads of perspiration.

    Chu Lixue was speechless, "Then get off me, you lecherous beast of a man!"

    JI Yuanughed at this tease.

    He was only teasing her; his senior sister was indeed a goddess maiden. She had the exquisite gentleness of Ling Feiyue and the enthralling trancing beauty of Little Princess. Together with her divine smile, she was as lovely as the Lovely Empress and the enticing peerless beauty of Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    She was the type that men cannot forget with just a look at her and if they could not obtain her, they would regret it forever.

    That was also the reason why Ji Yuan had been so pissed off knowing the Xi Huangdi and Jiang Guanzhong were with her in the same camp.

    He was a man and of course, he knows men the best.

    Although Ji Yuan was about to explode anytime, he was surprising very slow and anyone would have the impression that he was not afflicted by the yin-yang imbnce of the divine pill that he had just consumed.

    The truth was, he was very slow because he was perspiring heavily in his struggle against the unnatural lust that was overwhelming him and between his willpower of trying to remain sane.

    Any normal man would have already sumbed to lust and bes a depraved man a long time ago as they did not have the willpower of Ji Yuan.

    It was not the same as saying that Ji Yuan was immune to temptation because of his strong willpower but rather to say that the goddess that was lying naked below him was his consort-to-be and he did not want to lose his face in the most awkward manner by cking out.

    Chu Lixue was muttering almost incoherently, "Why am I so kind¡­ as to visit you¡­ this is so screw¡­ and this man keeps ckmailing me¡­"

    A red-hot lusty Ji Yuan slowly put his lusty hot fingers on her jade breasts and he was slowly now rubbing her beautiful breasts from the edges to the top. In doing so, this only caused the already perking pinkish red nipples of Chu Lixue to perk even more and she was moaning coquettishly at every little tremble.

    This excited Ji Yuan as he bent down to kiss and to suck her nipples while shaking her jade breasts up and down tightly.

    Although Chu Lixue had no experience in this sort of time but she knows that Ji Yuan was only ying with her as her lewd juices began to drool from her sacred valley.

    And she could see his little brother was fully ready and just looking at his little brother, caused her to be even more flustered.

    "Ji Yuan, are you¡­ ying your senior sister? Quickly get into the¡­ act¡­ I can''t stand your teases any longer¡­"

    Ji Yuan said as he sucked her nipples passionately, "Then beg me¡­senior sister¡­"

    Chu Lixue almost fainted when she had heard him, "Who is the one¡­ that is need? Your or me? You will die if you don''t get into the act soon¡­"

    But she quickly surrendered as she moaned coquettishly, "A, you little rascal¡­ your senior sister begs you¡­ to hurry up¡­ alright?"

    Ji Yuan lustily said with his hot body, "Then senior sister, next time¡­ you can allow me¡­ to grope you anytime¡­ I want?"

    Chu Lixue nearly fainted from her own lusty needs and the hot kisses of Ji Yuan on her nipples; she could not believe that she was still being ckmail by a dying man at this crucial time.

    She did not know that this was precisely this nature of Ji Yuan that he had pissed off some of the Trial Spirits as well as he sought for his best advantage even when he was not supposed to get it. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    With an intoxicated expression, she moaned madly with lusts in her heart, "Whatever¡­ hurry up¡­"

    It was because her lewd juices were now flowing from her sacred valley and wetting her thighs; she did not want Ji Yuan to see her in this uncontroble wanton state.

    It was alright to act wanton when he was in the act but not before as this was awkward to her face.

    But she did not know that this was normal to feel this way and Ji Yuan had seen even more extreme cases.

    The first reason was that it was due to herck of experience as this was her first time.

    The second reason was more straightforward and it was that she had always like Ji Yuan and she could hardly resist his beautiful charm. It was just that she had chosen to suppress her feelings for him because he simply had too many beautiful maidens around him and some of them were not weaker than her.

    In fact, one of the maidens was actually her own prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress, Yun Chi.

    Although Yun Chi did not mind, but she felt awkward flirting with Ji Yuan especially when her own father and sister were also in their party as well.

    And there were also her two prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. So as their eldest prot¨¦g¨¦ sister, she ought to set a good example.

    Also, she got a new eldest prot¨¦g¨¦ sister now and she was Bai Qianfeng the Null Abyssal Goddess.

    Although her father had betrothed her to Ji Yuan and she was also Ji Yuan''s future consort, she did not want the others to use her of pulling strings to get close to Ji Yuan.

    But today, her defense broke.

    Ji Yuan spread her beautiful and slender jaded legs open by holding onto her ankles and at the same time, he was looking at the pinkish buds in-between. "Beautiful, beautiful. Senior sister, then I aming¡­"

    He was not the only ones that wereing.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were also peeping...

    Just as she thought that Ji Yuan was about to enter into her honey hole, he was licking her lewd juices and this only caused more of her lewd juices to spurt uncontrobly.

    She sucked in her breath heavily with lust filling her body, moaning coyly but saying otherwise. "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?!"

    Ji Yuan inhaled heavily as he continued to kiss and drink from her honey hole, "Senior sister, I want to kiss you there first¡­"

    Chu Lixue was feeling hot now and she was swaying her body intoxicatedly even though Ji Yuan was the one that was being afflicted, "I beg you. Do hurry up¡­ and stop torturing me anymore¡­ in the future, I do whatever you say¡­ alright? I beg you¡­ my lord¡­"

    Actually, Ji Yuan had a bitter look on his lusty hot face; it was because he was already at breaking point. The minute that he tried to enter into his senior sister forbidden valley would also be the same time that he would lose control of himself and could not remember his deeds.

    That was why he was trying to give her a false impression that he was still in control.

    He hotly shouted aloud, "I aming in now¡­"

    When he had finally entered into his senior sister, Chu Lixue could not believe that Ji Yuan had no little mercy for her and he was thrusting into her madly.

    That night, she felt like she was ascending into heaven and had climaxed 20 times and she was so filled with his yang essence from the inside and all over her body.

    She was so exhausted that she had copsed but Ji Yuan was like a bull and he continued to bang her while spewing out his seemingly unlimited yang essence.

    And it was also the same night that she had also lost her chastity that she had been guarding to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was surprising quiet that very night as he keeps on ying with her. But Chu Lixue did not mind because she was moaning lewdly as though she was ascending to the heavens to notice anything.

    Xiang Li and Anyang however was watching delightful at the entire scene

    Xiang Li slowly giggled to Anyang, "Should we tell Big Brother what he did after his ckout? I think this divine pill is more powerful than his previous masculine profound pills and his masculine has also increased with his Yang Invincible Profound Arts."

    Anyang frowned, "Do you want to die? This will be so awkward to our lord''s face since he can''t remember himself greening himself."

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself, "I shouldn''t have asked him to taste that divine pill¡­"

    Anyang chuckled, "Let''s hope that our lord can forget about that part as well¡­"

 Chapter 783 MrBeast Ji Yuan (3) R18

    ?

    After the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue had copsed onto the bed in great exhaustion as shey t with her bosoms onto the best and she felt sore all over; Ji Yuan had ridden her like a beast of a man and did not show her any gentleness.

    And all over her soft silken hair, face, mouth, body and limbs were Ji Yuan''s seemingly unlimited yang essence.

    All her romantic notions about her first time hadpletely vanished, shattered by Ji Yuan rough handling of her.

    Behind her, Ji Yuan had also copsed on her swollen back.

    Although she was sore but it was like she had just ascended to heaven for the rest of the night and she had gone to hell now.

    She had actually moaned quite lewdly for the entire night but luckily this room had an anti-sound barrier or else her lewd voice could be heard for miles around.

    Ji Yuan had pumped into her several thousands of times nonstop and also did not spare her mouth.

    All her pleads that asked him to stop for a little while were all gone unheard.

    Therefore, she had no choice but to be yed by the red hot Ji Yuan.

    But there was an inexplicable simtion of pleasure in her heart and she longed for it; she really did not know that Ji Yuan was so good in this¡­

    She felt dirty but at the same time, she was greatly aroused by the pleasures that Ji Yuan had brought her.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had got up weakly again and he was shaking his headache off.

    Then to his horror, he saw his naked senior sister with her back facing him and the bed were soaked wet with their yin and yang essences.

    Then between her butts, he saw that it was red and even the bed was soaked with her redness of her chastity.

    He had broken her chastity and yet he did not know?

    Someone had just green his betrothed and future consort right in front of him!

    There was a throbbing heart ache that only Ji Yuan could feel right now after he got NTR and no one else could everfort him.

    His heart pain was so great that even Xiang Li and Anyang could hear his heart breaking emotions inside his spiritual sea.

    Xiang Li tried tofort Ji Yuan: Big Brother, don''t worry and don''t think too much. It is you that NTR yourself just now.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said to Xiang Li even as he stared at beautiful and still trembling naked butt of his senior sister: What do you know? My beloved betrothed''s first time is taken right in front of my eyes and yet, I am not aware of this at all. This emotional damage is too unbearable for me to bear¡­

    Even Anyang was also saying: My lord, at least you are cured of any adverse effects from that divine pill. You should give thanks to the Great Beyond Goddess for this. Maiden Chu Lixue literally sacrifices herself to save your life. You have been so rough and crude towards her¡­

    Ji Yuan said to them bitterly: Also, it isn''t fair that my senior sister is able to vite me when I was unconscious just now. I need to take my vendetta on her by viting her back¡­ I can''t believe that she has taken me when I was unconscious¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    With that Ji Yuan was suddenly lifting Chu Lixue''s buttocks high up again while he began to stroke her entuated jaded breasts with his fingers. Then he had suddenly pulled her hands backward as he banged into her, before continuing the momentum nonstop.

    Chu Lixue was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly entered into her again and she was moaning loudly once more.

    She said coquettishly, "A¡­ Ji Yuan¡­ you are¡­ not tired?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was eager to continue what he had missed even though he was quite exhausted, "Never senior sister. I can continue¡­all the way to morning!"

    Right now, he was forcing himself to continue with his willpower that was strengthened by his Absolute Spirits and Undying Fight Spirits.

    Anyang said weakly: My lord, you will surely die of exhaustion if you continue like this¡­ your inner spiritual sea is drying up, you know.

    Xiang Li giggled: I think that the immortal divine lord didn''t kill Big Brother today but he is going to be killed by his senior sister today¡­

    Anyang took a look at the divine look of Chu Lixue who was looking just as entrancing in her messy state: Our lord just wants to bang until he has killed himself¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: I don''t think this is the time to exin logic to our Big Brother. I know Big Brother the best. He won''t listen at all¡­ heehee¡­ so let''s continue our show¡­

    Indeed, Ji Yuan was not listening to them and all his attention was on the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and he was shouting loudly as he rubbed nonstop into her, "Senior sister, let your Ji Yuan brings you to the heavens!"

    Chu Lixue could feel that her lewd waters were spurting with every thrust and she was great flustered to this pleasure as her two breasts were swing seductively in the air.

    She moans softly, "Alright¡­ my lord¡­ from today onward¡­ I am yours now¡­"

    Ji Yuan still could not believe what he was doing and he was really banging his senior sister now. When he had heard what she had just said to him, he was even more delighted and he started to bang her really hard. "Senior sister, I¡­ love you¡­"

    "I love you as well¡­" Chu Lixue said coquettishly before she started to moan lewdly and she was drooling with the enticing movements of pleasure that was sent to her body by Ji Yuan.

    She was suddenly moaning loudly because she had suddenly climaxed as she exploded her lewd juices by spurting like a stream when Ji Yuan had suddenly entered too deep into her, sending unspeakable pleasures to overwhelm her.

    This also caused Ji Yuan to release arge amount of his yang essence into her, causing to moan lewdly.

    It was so much that her belly had expanded alittle and her drowsy eyes were intoxicated.

    And she was also swaying her entrancing divine body in cooperate with Ji Yuan as he continued to grind her nonstop.

    Ji Yuan was delighted when he saw the lewd yin essence of his senior sister spurted upon him and he continued to grind even harder even as he shot his yang essence to fill her.

    He liked the see the swaying white butt of his senior sister moving in front of him and he had suddenly let go of her hands as her front body began to fall downward with her jade buttocks lifting high.

    And Ji Yuan began to use his hands to p on her jade buttocks until it turned swollen red while he grinded nonstop into her very tight lewdness of her forbidden sacred valley.

    Chu Lixue moaned lewdly with each p and this excited her¡­

    Ji Yuan said breathlessly to her, "Senior sister, you have been so naughty with me. I want to punish you today¡­"

    Chu Lixue had suddenly turned around and she was suddenly in a 69 position with Ji Yuan and she was saying coquettish to him, "Ji Yuan, your senior sister wants to do try this position with you¡­"

    And she had started to lick clean and with great gentleness the yin and yang essence that were on his little brother with her cherry lips before putting his throbbling little brother into her coyly mouth¡­

    Ji Yuan on the other hand could see her wet lewd openings and it was like a beautiful flower. And he started to make herfortable by drinking and teasing her in that ce¡­

    The two of them did not want to stop at all.

 Chapter 784 Sword Deity Ding Xiaoxiao (1)

    ?

    Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, 6th level of the final trial.

    Elsewhere.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had previously defeated a great saint when she had first stepped foot in the final trial.

    She had exined to her group that this was due to her ''good luck'' that she had defeated this great saint as he had slipped when she had suddenly attacked him.

    It was because he had expected that a low level celestial would have the guts to strike him all of a sudden.

    And you know what?

    Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin had actually believed her.

    The 3 of them were simply simpletons!

    Later that night, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had left them secretly to go off on her own.

    It was because she was actually making use of them to enter the final trial and she had no use of them anymore.

    However, she did not kill them as they had helped her so many times.

    One must know that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was someone that always repaid a favor and that was her honor as a Sword Deity of the Deste Realm.

    A long time ago, a true divinity sword was suddenly seen in the Deste Realm and hundreds of the most powerful immortal cultivators were all fighting over this true divinity sword.

    Eventually, only the Great Demon God and her were able to catch up to the nearly impossible speed of this true divinity sword.

    And now, these opponents were floating in mid-air thousands of meters above the ground as they faced each other.

    To either of them, having the prized true divinity sword would increase their power and ranking in the Deste Realm.

    Naturally her opponent who was the Great Demon God was not going to allow her to have this true divinity sword.

    However, he had suddenly said to her. "You know. Ding Xiaoxiao, you are a member of my demonic race and I am your true god of the entire demonic race. And you want to oppose me by taking away this true divinity sword? Shouldn''t you try to make your true god happy?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily answered nonchntly, "I know that today I have great offended my god. But even if I were to die, I will still fight you over this true divinity sword."

    The Great Demon God slowly looked at the true divinity sword that was still hovering in mid-air and saying extremely slowly but his profound voice was full of authority, "We have fighting for the several hours. Soon it will time for this true divinity sword to move again. And then we have to chase it all over again. But still, either you or me, is willing to use our true strength yet. It will be interesting to know your true strength."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said slowly, "My cultivation is beneath the Great Demon God who is already a half-step true divinity."

    The Great Demon Godughed slowly, "You are one of the strongest demonic cultivators of our demonic race and you are at the peak of the ninth immortal positioning. In time toe, you may have the chance to step into the forbidden half-step 10th immortal realm like me and be the 4th true gods of the Deste Divine Realm. Pity. If you fight me today, you will lose your chance for the future. So do you still want to fight against me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered slowly but firmly, "So be it then!"

    The Great Demon God had suddenly opened his demonic third eye on his forehead and his demonic aura had suddenly increased to a height that was never seen before previously.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was forced to raised her divine sword protective over her to shield herself from the intense pressure that was caused by the powerful demonic profound aura of the Great Demon God.

    In that brief instant, she had also disyed her profound power to the fullest and her forehead was also glowing with her sword spirit before disying her Sword Domain, "Sword Dao of the Medium Universe!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Immediately she had suppressed the demonic profound aura of the Great Demon God with her sword intentions and she was free to move again as she prepared for her second move.

    The Great Demon God had suddenly said, "This is too boring. Why didn''t you try to use your Sword Dao of the Large Universe instead? Or even your Sword Dao of your Universe Border? You just didn''t want to use your trump card too early, am I right?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was gasping, "You know about my Sword Domains?!"

    The Great Demon Godughed with a proud expression, "Of course I know all about you. Ever since you have first disyed your first Sword Domain, the Sword Dao of the Small Universe, I''ve been tracking everything about you. You are a Sword Deity that is capable of using 4 Sword Domains, the greatest sword genius of our demonic race¡­"

    The he added slowly, "You have been respectful so far toward this true god of yours. But don''t you want to know if you are capable of defeating me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said slowly, "I only want that true divinity sword. Fighting against the Great Demon God isn''t my true goal."

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "Very well then. You shall have this true divinity sword."

    The peerless beautiful form of Ding Xiaoxiao was stunned, "The Great Demon God is willing to let me have this true divinity sword? It is a true divinity profound treasure and you may be able to ascend as the True 10th divinity if you can have it. You may have to wait for tens of thousands of years before the next true divinity immortal profound treasure descends again."

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially as he stroked his long white beard; he was the oldest as well as the most powerful of his demonic race while this Ding Xiaoxiao was a seductive and most peerless maiden which should have belonged to his harem.

    He said slowly, "I have my own means for my own breakthrough. So you don''t have to worry for me. But as for why I am willing to surrender this true divinity sword to you¡­"

    There was a smile before he continued wryly.

    "This isn''t for free, naturally. You have to fulfill 3 conditions of my divine will for me and before you can fulfill my 3 conditions, you have to follow me even if I were to leave for the other divine realms one day. But don''t worry, this won''t be against your honor. So what do you think?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao pondered for a while before she bowed her head in submission, "I''ll ept this condition of my Great Demon God."

    To her, this sounds like a most reasonable request as she needed all her profound strength to obtain this true divinity sword rather than risk a fight with the Great Demon God.

    A true immortal profound treasure is unlike the normal magic profound treasures; it is actually birthed through its own mysterious creation when the mystic profoundws ured. And it has its own profound field, it even has its own sentience and can even more through the spatial space.

    Obtaining a true immortal profound treasure is extremely difficult and requires plenty of profound strength, cultivation realm, plenty of luck and even time.

    And this was also what the Great Demon God was thinking.

    For this true divinity sword, they had been chasing it for the past several weeks through different powerful domains of the Deste Divine Realm, even encountering several powerful immortal cultivators, demonic sects and even the epic deste monsters.

    In the end, they may even lose this true divinity sword to some other powerful immortals of the Deste Divine Realm or even the powerful deste monsters that also wished to obtain it to evolve themselves.

    Back to the present;

    That was the reason why Ding Xiaoxiao had rarely unsheathed her current sword; it was because hidden and contained within her profound scabbard was actually a powerful true divinity sword!

    2. This is the disparity between Number 1 and Number 2. Also on how Number 1 is indebted to the Great Demon God.

 Chapter 785 Sword Deity Ding Xiaoxiao (2)

    ?

    It had taken Ding Xiaoxiao several days of continuous flight to reach the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind, which was the crossroad in the middle final trial area.

    This Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind was the only trial wondend that was permanent and its location known due to the interference of the Great Demon God.

    And it was also in there that she would find the denizens from her Deste Divine Realm and also the other cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The reason why she was going there was because she needed information about Ji Yuan or the Death God Mingwang.

    By right, she should not have taken flight to this twisted wondend as she knows that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would be actually directing its powerful deste monsters from the vastnds of the final trial against her since she was an immortal.

    However, she had the ability to conceal her profound aura just like the Death God Mingwang and hence she was able to remain undetectable by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as she sped toward the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind.

    There was another reason why she had abandoned her party when she had finally reached the final trial and it was because she did not want them to know that she was actually an immortal cultivator.

    Now she was going to find this Ji Yuan which looked quite interesting to be her opponent.

    She had no intention to use her immortal profound strength against him though since he was only at the seventh cultivation realm. She would suppress her profound strength to fight him to see if he was really as capable as the Goddess Mel had imed him to be.

    She had been intrigued by this Ji Yuan when his son Ji Hao had imed back in the Five Heavens Peak (Chapter 662) that his father Ji Yuan was the great sword saint and hero in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Naturally she would not believe in such audable im.

    But when she tried to kill Ji Hao, she was quite startled that her usual blow that could instantly kill a golden celestial of the 5th cultivation positioning by shattering their golden body, would actually fail to kill him.

    And she had detected a subtle inertia force in her attack.

    Immediately she had suspected that this Ji Hao and even Ji Yuan were unusual.

    And also, because she was too bored after her awakening and she needed to fight a sword cultivator.

    Who better than this, than the so-called Greatest Sword Saint Ji Yuan in the Deste Celestial Fraternity?

    On the other hand, she had this interesting notion about fighting the Death God Mingwang as well. It was because the Death God Mingwang was rumored to be one of the greatest sword experts in the Deste Divine Realm.

    The best ce to fight the Death God Mingwang was naturally inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth where the Great Demon God would not interfere in their battle.

    She had finally reached the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind and had entered the Bliss City.

    But the minute that she had entered the Bliss City, she was quite startled that many of the immortal arrays were no longer working and were even destroyed.

    In fact, there were not a single trial in this Bliss City.

    And totally no sight of either the Death Faction or the Dragon Faction too.

    Only the wantonness of the celestials and the mysticws of restrictions remained in this ce.

    The streets of Bliss City were filled with naked maidens and men that were all filled with depraved lust.

    There were even several men that were interested in copting with her.

    But she firmly said no and drives them away with the mysticws of this ce.

    "This neer knows the mysticws of this ce¡­"

    "What a pity. She is such a beautiful maiden¡­"

    "It would be good to part her jaded legs of this peerless maiden¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She soon spotted a depraved naked maiden in the street who had just been toyed by 4 men for the past several hours and she was now slowly putting on her revealing robe.

    Since this depraved naked maiden happened to be nearby, she casually asked her. "What happens to this ce and its trials? It looks like a dead wondend now."

    When the depraved naked maiden saw that it was such a beautiful and peerless looking maiden that was talking to her, she was envious of her peerless looks and she was smiling. "Maiden, you are so beautiful. There must a lot of men that will like to bed you. Why don''t we form a sister group together? In this way, we can get plenty of pleasures and spirit stones from the men in this ce."

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed coldly at her invitation and said, "I am not as depraved as someone with a broken cultivation such as you. Are you thinking of making me into your depraved ve?"

    This depraved naked maiden was startled, "You know?!"

    Then she smiled coldly to herself, "I used to be a proud daughter of the heavens and also one of the leaders of the most powerful celestial sects in my celestial fraternity¡­ but I am a whore now. I, Xi Jingping is now the most wanton whore in the entire Bliss City now. And any men can take me free of charge and it is all thanks to Zhi Jiugong and Ji Yuan!"

    This naked and depraved maiden was indeed Xi Jingping, the Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "You know this Ji Yuan? You have seen him?"

    Xi Jingping hummed coldly, "Of course I know this evil Ji Yuan. He is the one that have caused me to be in this state! I want to rip this evil Ji Yuan apart! He has not only raped my 2 beloved prot¨¦g¨¦s Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing, but he has also raped Zhi Jiugong my Ancient Matriarch and forced her to do his evil biddings."

    Then she stared coldly at Ding Xiaoxiao, "You know this evil Ji Yuan?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said slowly, "I have a personal grudge to settle with him. Since now that I know that he is such an evil man, I won''t hesitate in executing him with my sword."

    Xi Jingping began to lit a helpful smile, "Come with me my sister and I will slowly tell you about this Ji Yuan. I have once fought with him and I know all his nasty tricks. A beautiful maiden like yourself will surely be one of his many innocent victims. You can trust me. I am an orthodox celestial."

    Ding Xiaoxiao frowned, "This won''t be necessary¡­"

    But Xi Jingping returned a wicked smile as she pulled Ding Xiaoxiao along with her, "Come sister. We are both maidens and we have plenty of things to talk about."

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked her, "Shouldn''t you properly put on your robe first?"

    She could see that she was still exposing her buttocks and there were yang essences that were flowing from between her legs; this was the result of her coption with the 4 men earlier.

    Xi Jingping smiled, "This is Bliss City. No one will mind. On the other hand, a decently dressed maiden like you is a freak in this city. Everyone can see that you are a newly arrived celestial maiden here and look, all these men that you can see that are all looking at you now."

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to hesitate as she asked, "Where can I find this Ji Yuan and does he have any special characteristics?"

    Xi Jingping chuckled softly, "Come with me and I''ll let you know."

 Chapter 786 Sword Deity Ding Xiaoxiao (3)

    ?

    Ding Xiaoxiao was now following Xi Jingping to her abode.

    Along the way, there were many lewd men that tried to make a pass at Ding Xiaoxiao but they never got a chance as Ding Xiaoxiao said a firm ''No'' to them and had even injured some of them.

    This surprised Xi Jingping since she had thought that Ding Xiaoxiao was a newly arrived here.

    So, she asked, "Have you been to this ce before?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered nonchntly, "Although I have never been here before but I have heard it from the others."

    Xi Jingping asked her with a wry smile, "Since you have heard of this ce, then why did youe here for? Or unless you are a wanton maiden in your heart?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao secretly though: This Xi Jingping is a sly fox¡­

    She refused to answer her but asked instead, "Can you tell me about this Ji Yuan now?"

    Xi Jingping smirked coldly, "Not until we have reached my abode. Then I shall tell you everything about this evil Ji Yuan. You seem too eager to know about this Ji Yuan or you are actually one of his many lovers?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed, "I will be his lover? Impossible. I havee to kill him."

    Xi Jingping chuckled softly, "He is constantly surrounded by many peerless maidens because he has used trickeries on all of them. They are all the lofty saintess and great saintesses of the Celestial Realm. Only I have the willpower to resist his charms but I have paid a heavy price in the process¡­"

    Then she turned to look at her with a wry smile, "As for you, you are such a beautiful maiden. It is either you submit to him or you will be thrown into this ce as a wanton whore like me. This is our fitting punishment for offending him."

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered coldly, "In that case, I will be ruthless against such a scum. He doesn''t deserve to live for being such a scum of a man."

    Xi Jingping asked her with a smile, "It seems that you have a feud with him? May I know what it is?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered with a cold hum, "Hmph! This, you don''t have to know! Are you going to tell me about this Ji Yuan and where he is or not?"

    Xi Jingping smiled, "Don''t be impatient. I''ll tell you more about this evil Ji Yuan once we have reached my abode. How do I know if you are a friend or a foe of this evil man before I reveal it to you, am I right? And don''t you want me to tell you more about myself first? And how I was taken by that evil Ji Yuan to this ce? Who knows if we can even be close sisters and we can evene up with a n to kill this evil Ji Yuan for good?"

    "I am not interested to hear your part of the story or to be even a friend to you." Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly.

    Xi Jingping: ¡­

    Xi Jingping: ¡­

    Xi Jingping: ¡­

    She was startled by the cold haughty look of this maiden.

    So she said with a look of sarcasm, "Are you really an enemy of this Ji Yuan? Or his lover? If you are his enemy, are you sure that you can defeat him? He is a sword saint with 2 sword spirits and 2 saint-step divine swords. And he even has a spirit animus that could increase his profound power to the 8th immortal positioning. If you want to defeat him, you are a million years too early!"

    This time round, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily looked startled, "What did you just say? He has 2 Sword Spirits?! And 2 saint-step divine swords? He has the profound strength to lift 2 saint-step divine sword? He is a sword saint with a spirit animus too?"

    This was something unexpected for her. In fact, this was not the information that she had gathered beforeing to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Now this was getting to be a little interesting for her and she was now looking forward for her duel with this Ji Yuan.

    Xi Jingping said seductively, "Since you know about this now, therefore we shoulde up with a good n to kill him first. When the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth ends, we will have very little chance."

    Then she smiled coyly, "Come little sister. Let me teach you the arts of seduction. When this evil Ji Yuan is being seduced by you, your chances of killing him will definitely increase."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly giggled softly, "So that is your aim. Are you nning to let me witness how the other men are going to whore you in your little abode while I am watching you? Actually, you have no idea where Ji Yuan really is. Actually, I just need to know if he is really in the final trial and that is enough for me. But I have to thank you for your other information¡­"

    Then she hummed coldly, "Whether he is evil or not, it is for you to say. It is his sword spirit that will reveals his character. That is why cultivators like you have no idea on how to obtain a sword spirit. I am leaving now."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xi Jingping panicky said, "Wait, don''t go first little sister¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao hummed, "You know that you can''t stop me in this ce. Xi Jingping, you are nothing but a whore that deserves to be yed by all the men. You have no shame at all exposing your lower body in the streets to all the men. Do you really think that I am of the same kind as you? Farewell!"

    And with that, she had shed away in a blink of an eye.

    Xi Jingping was startled that this beautiful peerless maiden had suddenly disappeared so quickly.

    This caused her to say unhappily, "Even if I, Xi Jingping is a greatest whore in the entire Celestial Realm, I must make everyone else a whore as well. You are just lucky to escape from me."

    She had the intention to make this peerless maiden a whore, just like the many celestial maidens that hade along into this Bliss City.

    That was her character.

    In her own celestial fraternity, her Holy Oracle Sect is the secondrgest major orthodox celestial sect. Only the White Sword Monarch''s celestial sect is bigger than her own celestial sect but due to years of maniption and sending her own spies to all the other major orthodox celestial sects, her celestial sect has the best reputation.

    In fact, her Holy Oracle Sect is so good in their information gathering that they have even most of the information on the other celestial fraternities.

    Although sometimes their information may be a little outdated when Yu Jingjing did not know about Ji Yuan but most of the information is still highly reliable.

    Under her leadership, the Holy Oracle Sect has the ns to establish a One Road, One Trial celestial n to unite all the celestial fraternities under, her leadership of course and to let the Holy Oracle Sect be the greatest celestial sect ever.

    Although the Holy Oracle Sect has a leadership panel of elders to select its future leader as they are all maidens, when Xi Jingping was selected leader, she had a 100% of the vote.

    Thinking about her brilliant leadership in the past, Xi Jingping said. "Don''t forget that I am still Matriarch Xi Jingping of the Holy Oracle Sect. When I return to my celestial fraternity, this greatest whore is going to turn my entire Holy Oracle Sect into whores. Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi. Who is going to believe you? The things that happen in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth are unspeakable and unwrittenable. I am going to let the two of you be my whores as well."

    -

    -

    -

    In the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The hollow and lifeless body of the Great Demon God was chained to feed the vast and powerful immortal arrays in the secret array chamber of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    This ce was dark and filled with the heavy drench of dark deste aura.

    All of a sudden, somethinges to life and a red eye had suddenly appeared in the middle of the lifeless body of the Great Demon God.

    It was just a sh and it quickly disappeared again.

 Chapter 787 The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong Again

    ?

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had just finished his short cultivation and he had gained a deeper understanding of his spirit cultivation; this was mainly due to the high level spirit cultivation slips that were easily avable in this ce and for the right amount.

    He was sighing softly, however.

    Thinking back, he had almost died in his first day in Snowy Pavilion City after he was beaten up by Divine Consort Tang Manni, who was proving to be more formidable than he had thought.

    At that time he did not want to use his trump cards until he had no other choices.

    Luckily for him, he was just being taught a lesson by the Divine Consort Tang Manni and her female followers.

    At that time, he had no idea that this extremely beautiful maiden was actually the Divine Consort Tang Manni and he had identally offended her with his remarks.

    He had also made a mistake with his spirit food appraisal; high grade spirit stones were too plentiful here and the prices were totally different from the Celestial Realm.

    This was a low level mistake that he had identally made.

    How could he know?

    Although he had been to the Spirit Divine Realm 500 years ago through the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, it was only at thest day. He had entered this ce to check it out just in case he would find the same ce again 500 yearster.

    And indeed, he did find the same trial again and he was early this time. In fact, the trial portal had not even started as it was waiting for 300 celestial cultivators to touch the ck stele in order to activate the trial.

    But fast forward to the current trial, there was one cultivator that offended him that day and that was Ji Yuan.

    This Ji Yuan was also the one that he had seen quarreling with Xi Huangdi outside the trial portal that day and he hade with another celestial.

    And this lowly cultivator Ji Yuan had dared to offend him by saying his appraisal was wrong and caused him a great loss of face that day.

    And those that offended him would never get a good ending.

    This was his principle and he swore to make this Ji Yuan make dearly for offending him.

    But he was quite lucky to join the camp of Divine Consort Dongfang Xinter on, as she was on a lookout for strong cultivators to join her camp as champions for the great games of the Spiritas Tower.

    This time round, he was smarter.

    He had suddenly realized that somehow, the divine consorts of this ce were able to know who were the celestials.

    And indeed, he was right and he was quickly discovered by Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    He also discovered that there were 2 other celestials that were already in the camp of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin for their trials; they were Xi Huangdi and Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    He had naturally recognized the Smiling Divine Maiden as one of the veiled maidens from her profound signature that was in Ji Yuan''s group that day outside the trial portal.

    Although he could see that the veiled maidens were all beautiful but because of their veils, he had no idea how beautiful they were.

    But when he saw the face of the Smiling Divine Maiden, he was stunned; this was a most peerless maiden that could make the blood of any man boiled.

    He could tell that Xi Huangdi was also interested in the Smiling Divine Maiden and he had made no pretense with his lecherous looks.

    However, he was the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong and he had to protect his image by being a perfect man that was not lecherous.

    In fact, his disguise worked perfectly and even the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was more polite to him than that Xi Huangdi.

    But that was not all.

    He was able tond a good impression with the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue for being so knowledgeable in all the cultivation subjects.

    He had tried to probe in secret if she was Ji Yuan''s maiden but luckily for him it was not.

    And he had also learnt from Xi Huangdi when he had a slip of tongue that the Smiling Divine Maiden was still a chaste maiden.

    He was greatly pleased and he was determined to pluck the Smiling Divine Maiden for himself. How could he allow such a peerless maiden to go away from his sight without even plucking her?

    Naturally he was also thinking of plucking the equally beautiful Divine Consort Dongfang Xin as well.

    From his conversations with the Smiling Divine Maiden, he had learnt that she was a sword cultivator and he was greatly pleased. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Sword cultivators are weak in the Celestial Realm!

    It was no wonder that the Smiling Divine Maiden was impressed by his knowledge of cultivation.

    Jiang Guanzhong was not called the Perfect Hero for nothing.

    He was extremely good in his Spirit, Mind, Body, Defense, Power Profound Arts and even Sword Profound Arts.

    And he had also secretly acquired his own sword spirit to increase his profound power with a divine sword as well.

    Now a cultivator that specialized in spirit cultivation will likely to gain a spirit animus than a sword spirit since these 2 cultivations are totally different from each other.

    But he, Jiang Guanzhong not only has a spirit animus but he also has a sword spirit as well!

    He is indeed a cultivator among the cultivators, the most blessed son under the heavens!

    Not only that, he has a formidable profound defense too as he specialized in the defensive profound aura and he is also a Power Cultivator as well!

    He is close to Perfection with a 10 in essence in almost all his basic cultivation foundation.

    In cultivation stories, he is the type that can kill cultivations above his cultivation realm easily due to his solid foundation in cultivation.

    When he has appeared in any ce, all the maidens would fall in love left and right with him because he was such a perfect hero cultivator.

    Right now, he is working on gaining the trust of the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    He did not care about hurting either the Smiling Divine Maiden or the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin. After all, he is in this trial just to gain his lucky urrences and to be even stronger in the future. In the future, he would meet even more heaven-defying great beauties of the immortal realm and he is only using them as his mere clothing.

    The world of cultivation is not for any cultivators that have a hint of any romantic notions. It is a cold and heartless world of cultivation where cultivators must harden their hearts topete with the other cultivators for rare resources and their lucky urrences.

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they were allpetitors and even enemies.

    Right now, he had just exited his seclusion and he was asking a female follower of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, "I wonder where the Smiling Divine Maiden is? I didn''t see her. Is she still in her personal cultivation room?"

    The female follower smiled and answered nonchntly, "I have heard that Maiden Chu Lixue is staying overnight at Great Spiritas Hero''s room to help treat his ailments."

    Jiang Guanzhong was shocked, "What?! Maiden Chu is staying overnight¡­ at that rascal Ji Yuan''s personal room?!"

    The female follower was now looking with great annoyance at Jiang Guanzhong, "Hey, you shouldn''t be calling our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan any names. Luckily it is just me. If our divine consort heard you, you will be kicked out of here like a dog."

    Jiang Guanzhong slowly asked, "Great spiritas hero?! When did he bes a great spiritas hero?!"

    The female follower smiled warmly at this question, "I''ve forgotten that you have gone for a short cultivation and did not know what has recently happened. You see, Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has killed an immortal divine lord in our city and saved all of us from a depraved divine lord."

    Jiang Guanzhong was stunned¡­

    He is only a sword cultivator. Impossible!

    This must be a staged act!

    He must be in cahoots with some unknown powers¡­

    The worst thing is, how dare he takes my maiden for himself?!

    The Smiling Divine Maiden is in his personal room now¡­

    This Ji Yuan must die! How dare he NTR me!

 Chapter 788 Comeback Of The First Divine Consort Ai Tina (1)

    ?

    Spirit Divine Realm, Snowy Pavilion City.

    In the secret rebel headquarter hideout of the rebel resistance group.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was alone with ex-elder Xie Tianzun, now called Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun in the Inner cultivation hall.

    Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun had just finished recounting to his Protectress Goddess Ai Tina on the history of the Spirit Divine Realm since she had ascended and also the current state of affairs in Snowy Pavilion City.

    The rebels have by now renamed themselves as the Aethinian Group and their patron goddess is the Protectress Goddess Ai Tina, who is also the highly revered First Ancient Divine Consort of all the divine consorts.

    The ex-rebels or Aethinians now, were all highly excited; it is because they have an immortal cultivator leading them now and she is also worshipped by their enemies the divine consorts.

    Also, after they had an immortal divine lord as leader and had suffered in his hands, they have all abandoned their old ideals of restoring the male spiritas tradition.

    Secretly, they were still a depraved lot of men and they were drooling over the big breasts of their Protectress Goddess Ai Tina.

    And they did not mind if she was also a depraved goddess and they were willing to be her male harlots.

    But the same cannot be said for handsome looking Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong that shown a strong interest in both maidens and men alike.

    Moreover, he did not seem to want to fight with the divine consorts directly for some unknown reasons and he was more interested to seek his own pleasures.

    But this Protectress Goddess Ai Tina was different; she had exined to them about the state of affairs in the Greater Spirit Realm and told them to give up in their resistance against the divine consorts.

    And even told them that she would protect them from the divine consorts.

    All they need to do was to rece the worship of the True Devil God to the Great Beyond Goddess and to her.

    There was no need for them to destroy their own shrine since the immortals that may descend upon the Spirit Divine Realm are mostly the ''divine consorts'' and not the depraved ''divine lords''.

    She convinced them that this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was just a small fry in the Greater Divine Realm and had escaped to the Spirit Divine Realm when her immortal divine consorts were caught off guard as there were a long tranquil peace in the Greater Divine Realm for a long time.

    These rebels actually believed everything that the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina had said because they know nothing about the Greater Spirit Realm or the mysticws that restrict an immortal in the lower realm.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was only allowed to remain in the Spirit Divine Realm for 60 days because her masters the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were too poor to send someone even more powerful.

    She had managed to convince them to send her instead.

    And she knows exactly what they were thinking after being with her 6 masters for such a long time; they must be thinking that because she was a low-level immortal, they could always send a stronger immortal divine lord to take care of her should she fails in her mission.

    She was given 4 missions by her 6 masters.

    One, find out who killed Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and avenge him by using the spirit talisman that they had given her.

    Two, investigate the cause of the profound darkness disturbances. It may be caused by the rebirth of the True Devil God, the True God of the spiritas race.

    Three, find Xu Yifei if she is still alive and help her to ascend as a divine consort if possible.

    Four, ensure that the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower will go smoothly.

    The fourth objective was not really a mission since the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower had been running every 500 years for the past several tens of thousands of years.

    When Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina had finally finished the ounts that were from Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun, she looked a little astonished.

    It was because Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun had told her that Xu Yifei, formerly Fairy Concubine is now a Great Divine Consort again.

    It seemed to her that she did not even need to aid Xu Yifei at all but it would be interesting to meet her¡­ it was because she had a special constitution that her 6 masters had wanted from her.

    While her 6 masters had ced several restrictions on her to safeguard the dark secrets of the Greater Spirit Realm, they had failed to evaluate properly that she may kill Xu Yifei instead.

    She was thinking: I don''t have to tell this Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei anything about the Great Spirit Realm, I just have to kill her once and for all. This is for the greater good.

    But the next piece of information was extremely valuable.

    It was because Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun had mentioned about the killer of Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and he was Ji Yuan.

    This Ji Yuan was also a newly appointed Great Spiritas Hero of the Snowy Pavilion City and he got 100% votes from all the 5 divine consorts, Dongfang Xin, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    And ording to some witnesses, this Ji Yuan was not an immortal cultivator but a sword saint with two emperor-step divine swords.

    "Emperor-step divine swords?"

    Emperor-step divine swords are half-step true divinity swords. Even in the Greater Spirit Realm, it is quite impossible for an immortal to wield two emperor-step profound treasures.

    As for a lower realm cultivator, it is even more impossible since the cultivator needs a huge amount of profound strength to lift and use an emperor-step profound treasure in the first ce.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "Interesting¡­"

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina closed her eyes briefly to think of this impossibility.

    But she could only draw upon 1 possibility.

    That somehow this Ji Yuan was ying upon the weakness of the spiritas to hurt them.

    It is because as spirit cultivators, most spiritas are not sword cultivators so they disdain the use of any swords as it may hinder their spirit advancements.

    Although the spirit cultivators are formidable with their profound animus, profound auras and even their protective talismans but a divine sword can hurt them more than anything because they have a frail body.

    In the past when she had created an uprising against the powerful divine lords, one of herpanions was a female human sword saint cultivator that had helped her to defeat many of the powerful divine lords.

    However, this female human sword saint cultivator had unfortunately perished in an ambush. After her death, she had personally ennobled her as a female spiritas heroine.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina said slowly, "I want a detailed ount of the battle between this Ji Yuan and the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong."

    Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun looked a little awkward, "Please forgive us. Even though we have the first-hand ounts but the men that saw it are all low-level spirit cultivators and they did not understand the sword cultivation. They only see a lot of profound swords and some said there are 11 divine swords¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan can wield 11 divine swords?" Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina gasped slowly.

    Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun answered awkwardly because he found it hard to believe the ounts of the witnesses as well, "Indeed. They saw 11 divine swords¡­"

    But Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina merely nodded and said nothing.

    It was because this Ji Yuan must have a Sword Domain in order to use 11 divine swords. That was the only logical exnation.

    But unfortunately for this Ji Yuan, he would still die with flicker of her fingers because he had no resistance to the soul attacks of her 6 masters.

    The spirit talisman that was given to her can even kill her instantly as well.

    However, her 6 masters can only give her only 1 because it costs them their attainment to craft such a powerful spirit talisman.

    Except for Ji Yuan, she should not have any trouble with the rest.

    That was the logic of her 6 masters.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina merely smiled, "It is time for me to meet this so called Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan first¡­"

    She did not say her thoughts out and that was: If this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is worthy to be killed by my hands first.

    All of a sudden, Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was smiling seductive to Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun, "I''ve a reward for you for being so patience with your ounting. You must be tired after so many hours."

    The heart of the Xie Tianzun was suddenly beating very fast as he looked at the seductive and beautiful figure of his Protectress Goddess Ai Tina.

    She had suddenly moved her seductive ample bosoms and had slowly revealed one of her pinkish nipples.

    This caused Xie Tianzun to be greatly flustered and he felt as though his yang essence within him would suddenly explode.

    He just could not believe that he was now looking at the seductive nipple of his Protectress Goddess now.

    He thought: Is she going to make me into her male harlot? I am all too willing¡­

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina merely smiled and she knows the effect that she was pulling on him. After all, she was trained by her 6 masters in the arts of seduction for a long time and by now, she knows what the men are all thinking.

    She squeezed a drop of milk with her fingers from her pinkish nipple and a drop of milky essence flew in front of Xie Tianzun, "I am bestowing upon you a drop of my milk essence. This essence will help you to increase in your spirit cultivation. Consider this my gift to you."

    Then she had also covered up her pinkish nipple.

    Aethinian Leader Xie Tianzun was actually quite dry. Although he looked a little disappointed that he could not suck her nipples or touch his Protectress Goddess, he was still overwhelmed by this sudden gift that could increase his spirit cultivation which had been struck for hundreds of years.

    In fact, he was quite touched by the love of his Protectress Goddess that he was now banging his head onto the ground, "I will do anything for my Protectress Goddess. Just tell me what to do and I will surely do my best!"

    This was not ttering and he was for real.

    Ever since the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina had appeared, many men including himself had lost interest in their maidens and they were all dreaming of banging their Protectress Goddess who was too peerless whether in her alluring seductive beauty or her long breasts that could drive any men to madness.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina merely smiled because her objective was tomand the loyalty of anyone. There was no need to give her body to the inferiors and she could have the same effect.

 Chapter 789 Comeback Of The First Divine Consort Ai Tina (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan did note out of his personal room with the Smiling Divine Maiden for the past 3 days.

    This caused the five divine consorts to be extremely anxious for Ji Yuan.

    On the second day, they had already announced to the city-state that they had voted for Ji Yuan to be the city-state Great Spiritas Hero with a 100% unanimous vote and they had also dered a holiday to mark Ji Yuan great heroic deed in killing a powerful immortal divine lord.

    All five of the divine consorts had actually wanted to celebrate this event with Ji Yuan but it seemed that his ailments were far more serious.

    However, they dare not disturb him; it was because it wasmon for cultivators to enter long periods of rest or cultivation.

    It was especially when Ji Yuan had just defeated an immortal divine lord and his injuries may be more serious than he wanted to disy to them lest he caused them to be anxious for him.

    All 5 of the divine consorts were even more impressed by Ji Yuan''s selfless act and they prayed to the Great Beyond Goddess that the Smiling Divine Maiden may be able to help Ji Yuan.

    The 3 divine consorts, Sun Dingjun, Dongfang Xin and Ding Jie''Ere daily to check on Ji Yuan.

    As for Divine Consort Tang Manni, she was temporary staying in the tavern so that she would be the first one to know when Ji Yuan was out.

    But on the 4th day, the 5 divine consorts were all forced to depart from Snowy Pavilion city to meet the other divine consorts numbering 36 of them from the other 11 major city states in the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    This journey would take them another 3 days of flight in their flying divine beasts.

    The meeting ce was the Great Olympiad Mountains, the highest mountains in the vast fertile ins of the Peloponnesian Great Continent.

    It was because these 5 divine consorts had appointed Ji Yuan to be their city-state first divine lord and in order to make this into aw, they had to first seek the approval of the Senate of the Divine Consorts.

    Right now, there were 41 divine consorts that were floating high above the Muses teau of Mt. Olympos, the highest and most sacred ce of the Great Olympiad Mountains.

    This was also where their Ancient First Divine Consort had been crowed the most high ruler of all the Spirit Divine Realm in the past.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was now saying to the other 36 divine consorts from the other 11 major city-states, "Senate of the Divine Consorts, surely you have already heard that our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has killed an immortal divine lord¡­"

    "¡­Therefore, we have decided to appoint our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan as our city-state first divine lord as well. We plead to the Senate of the Divine Consorts to grant us the right to appoint our first divine lord."

    These 36 divine consorts were all here today because the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had invoked an emergency senate meeting 7 days ago to discuss this matter.

    Naturally these 36 divine consorts did not look too pleased by this summon that did not involve their city-states.

    Usually, this emergency senate meeting was invoked only in times of great emergencies, wars or invasions by the great spirit beasts.

    Out of these 36 divine consorts, there was 1 other great divine consort and her name was Great Divine Consort Aegean.

    A divine consort from the city-state of Helios said coldly, "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. Just days after you have regained your divine consort status, you are so eager to call for this emergency meeting to prove that you are a superior divine consort to us?"

    The name of this divine consort is Ye Hanyu.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni interrupted coldly, "You doesn''t seem too d that my sister is a divine consort again and also a great divine consort?"

    Divine Consort Ye Hanyuughed jovially, "What a convenient timing. So is Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei going to the Spiritas Tower again and to fail again?"

    This was a direct p in the face to Xu Yifei.

    Many of the divine consorts from the other 11 city-states wereughing jovially at this snide remark.

    The enticing figure of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei lit a smile however and said, "This time round, I won''t take care in the Spiritas Tower. You may all have my slot."

    When she had said that, many of the divine consorts were gasping with surprise and were looking at one another with a puzzled look.

    To ascend is the dream of all the divine consorts here.

    The Spiritas Tower is the only ce where a divine consort did not need to reach the great divine consort cultivation realm and they can ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm.

    It is the greatest cheat of the Spiritas Race.

    For some unknown reasons, it is actually extremely difficult for the divine consorts to attain as a great divine consort and this is their bottleneck.

    Even if they can attain as a great divine consort, it is still difficult for them to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm on their own.

    This is actually because their spirit cultivation is imperfect and much of it is stolen from the spiritas divine lords in the past.

    And the immortal divine lords in the past have purposely kept it this way in order to harvest the divine consorts into their female harlots.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Only 6 divine consorts would be granted the greater spirit power to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm every 500 years and that was why all these divine consorts were treating one another as their rivals.

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang was suddenly smiling, "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, how have you been? It has been 500 years since we havest chatted with each other. What a pity that you have decided to give up on the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. But¡­"

    She was suddenly smiling coldly, "But even if you have joined, you may not be the winner. Unless of course you have found your champion yet. But I can say that this time round, the celestial cultivators are much stronger. Is this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan a celestial as well?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei nodded, "Indeed, he is a celestial cultivator."

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang turned to look slowly at the other 35 divine consorts, "I don''t understand. This Ji Yuan isn''t even one of us. How can you appoint him as a Great Spiritas Hero?"

    "Hmph!" Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had suddenly hummed aloud and her beautiful countenance was smiling coldly. "Spiritas or Celestial, does it really matter? How many of you here are actually purebreds spiritas? You just don''t want to admit the human and the celestial blood that is in all of us¡­."

    She had suddenly raised her profound voice, "I am a half-celestial, half spiritas. Don''t forget that 1000 years ago, it is my celestial father that was the one that had revealed the celestial incursions to all of us. Or else all of you will still be in the dark about it!"

    Many of the 36 divine consorts did not show a guilty look and instead, their eyes were showing signs of rages; it was because this was extremely humiliating to them. For thousands of years, the number of divine consorts in the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad that were tricked by the celestials over the years were literally uncountable!

    They felt that they had dishonor their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina!

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang said coldly, "We are not here to argue with your city-state. You have invoked the Sacred Olympus Summon and that is why we are all here. This is enough face for your city-state. Surely you know our votes by looking at our expressions?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei did not look at her but instead she was looking at the other 4 divine consorts from her city state which were Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    All of a sudden, all 5 of them wereughing softly.

    While waiting for Ji Yuan to exit his personal room for the past few days, the 5 of them had put aside their differences and were suddenly friends.

    Maybe it was because they all shared the same goal of wanting to appoint Ji Yuan as their Great Spiritas Hero and even their divine lord.

    Wanting to appoint Ji Yuan as a divine lord actually did note from Xu Yifei or Tang Manni. Instead, it hade from the other 3 divine consorts at almost the same time.

    But they had expected that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and Divine Consort Tang Manni would actually agree to this.

    And Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had even dared to invoke the Sacred Olympus Summon to support the other 3 divine consorts to make Ji Yuan into a divine lord.

    This puzzled the other 36 divine consorts.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei slowly nodded before she turned to face Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang and said nonchntly, "Very well then since we already know your votes. From this day onward, Snowy Pavilion City will break away from the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and be an independent city-state. We shall decide our fates from now onward."

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang and many of the other 35 divine consorts were all shocked and they were now muttering to one another.

    "You can''t do this or you will also forfeit the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower!" Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang said aloud, looking a little panicky.

    The enticing figure of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei in mid-air said nonchntly, "Of course we can do this. We have at least 3 divine consorts in our city-state and ordingly to the ancientws of our Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, we can breakaway and form our own independent city-state. And we can also forfeit the Spiritas Tower too just like so many others city-states that are elsewhere¡­"

    "I am afraid that you can''t do this." A beautiful voice had suddenly said and a maiden with a powerful white profound aura had suddenly shed in their midst.

    This maiden was not only beautiful but looked seductive too and her long breasts were also extremely captivating, causing the faces of many of the divine consorts to be flustered.

    But the most rming part about this maiden was that her profound aura revealed that she was an 8th Spirit Realm immortal!

    Everyone from Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei were all gasping with look of shock; it was because none of them had even sense where she hade from. ''

    Many of these divine consorts like Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had extremely sharp spirit sense and they could detect any intruders from miles around, especially since they were all in mid-air and there were no ces for their opponents to hide.

    "What?" This maiden began to smile faintly. "After a long absence from this realm, none of you is able to recognize your Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina anymore? Surely you have my portraits and busts, right?"

    Everyone was startled and was gasping with great shock¡­

    Divine Consort Aegean and many of the divine consorts were muttering, "She really looks like our Ancient First Divine Consort¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was stammering as she looked at Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "It¡­ it is really my idol heroine Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina?!"

 Chapter 790 Comeback Of The First Divine Consort Ai Tina (3)

    ?

    A beautiful and seductive maiden had suddenly appeared in the midst of all the 41 divine consorts of the 12 major city-states and imed that she was their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina.

    And she indeed looked very simr to their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina in terms of her looks except for her beautiful breasts that could make all the divine consorts here awkward of their own bodies.

    But the most important thing to identify her was that her profound animus matched the faint shred of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina''s profound animus that were in their sacred shrines.

    Even after so many tens of thousands of years, the spirit divine sense of these 41 divine consorts would not be wrong.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled wryly, "Well, do I still have to prove myself?"

    Then she had turned to look below the pinkish mists that were below the ravines of the Muses teau of Mt. Olympos and said casually as she lifted her fingers below, "How many tens of thousands of years have it been now?"

    The entire mountains of Mt. Olympos were suddenly rumbling violently and all of a sudden, a white bluerge shield with intricate runes had suddenly flown with a startling speed to her side.

    All the 41 divine consorts were gasping with shock, "The divine shield of Ai Tina¡­"

    The Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled as she patted the blue white divine shield that was hovering on her left, "I can''t believe that after such a long time, there isn''t a divine consort that is strong enough to be your new mistress."

    This was naturally because this blue white divine shield was the final augment of the Goddess'' Tear for her protection against the divine lords in the past.

    However, she could not bring this blue white divine shield when she ascended so she had left it behind. It was because she practiced the spirit cultivation and she could not use any profound treasures that were metallic in nature to aid her during her ascension.

    This blue white divine shield was made of the divine heavenly relics which is the same as the divine metals of the divine swords.

    Therefore, she had left her divine shield behind so that some lucky future spirit cultivators could have a chance to find it or to use it.

    All the 41 divine consorts were slowly disying a respectful gesture as they lowered her heads with great humbleness, "Our great respect to our Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina. We wee your ascension back to the Spirit Divine Realm!"

    Many of the divine consorts had expressions of delights as they greeted their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina; it was because this may be the start of a new era and possibly a new golden age of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad!

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina had turned to look in the direction of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and her group, "You are Xu Yifei?"

    She did not address her by her noble title because this is unnecessary and also because she is the Ai Tina, the First Divine Consort.

    So she is Xu Yifei, whom her 6 masters are interested in obtaining¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei answered humbled but she was not cowed by the presence of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, "I am."

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled wryly, "I''ve heard that your city-state is going to break away from the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad. But what if I refuse your request to do so?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had turned pale immediately.

    And so did the other 4 divine Consorts Tang Manni, Dongfang Xi, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er as well.

    The divine will of their Ancient First Divine Consort was her divine decree and none of the other divine consorts had the right to oppose her.

    She is simply, the absolute divine ruler of their Spirit Divine Realm and all the divine consorts worshipped her as the Goddess Ai Tina for she was the very first divine consort to have ascended and had given them the Spiritas Tower to the city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei took the courage to say slowly, "If this is the divine decree of our Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, naturally I dare not disobey¡­"

    But she quickly looked up with a firm look to say, "But it is something that we have decided earlier since the other divine consorts did not want to vote in favor of our decision to make our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan a divine lord. It is because he has killed an immortal divine lord and save our city-state. Not just our city-state but the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad!"

    Although her voice was rousing and righteous, most of the 36 divine consorts behind the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina did not share her empathy even though she may be right that Ji Yuan had saved them from the evil depraved Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Because they had not experienced the terrifying profound strength of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, they had all thought that they may be able to kill him with theirbined strength.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina responded nonchntly, "You know that I hates the divine lords, am I right? And that is why the Spirit Divine Realm has never got a divine lord again because these divine lords are all depraved men."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was quiet.

    For the sake of Ji Yuan, the other 4 divine consorts and she had decided to break this unbroken rule and to create a precedent.

    They had never thought that their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina would actually ascend into the Spirit Divine Realm again.

    They were thinking that if the rest of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad did not agree with their proposal, then they just have to break away as an independent city-state.

    But they were still too na?ve.

    It was because none of them dare to disagree with divine decree of their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina.

    Today, she had already made it clear that Snowy Pavilion City cannot break up with the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad or appoint Ji Yuan as a divine lord.

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled wryly, "This Sacred Olympus Summon is indeed useful to summon all of you here today for today you have the honor of seeing your first divine consort."

    Immediately many of the divine consorts were heard saying, "It is our honor to witness the great glory of our Goddess Ai Tina."

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina said slowly as she turned to look at everyone, "However I can only remain in the Spirit Divine Realm for only a short period of time and I have no wish to interfere with most of your affairs¡­"

    When she had said that, many of the divine consorts were even looking a little disappointed¡­

    But Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina was soon smiling, "I am actually pursuing Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and he has fled to your Spirit Divine Realm. He is a most cunning opponent and I am in fact, grateful to this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan for killing him. Therefore¡­"

    She had turned back to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to say, "Therefore I shall grant him an audience with me and I shall follow you back to your Snowy Pavilion City. Then I shall grant this Great Spiritas Hero an appropriate reward."

    When the other 36 divine consorts had suddenly heard even their Goddess and Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina calling Ji Yuan a Great Spiritas Hero, they were all secretly interested to know who this Ji Yuan really was.

    From this day onward, Ji Yuan had also be a Great Spiritas Hero of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad simply because he was addressed so by their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina!

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei answered with a look of surprise, "We definitely wee our glorious Goddess Ai Tina to our city-state. I shall also bring our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to you and may he pleased the eyes of our Goddess Ai Tina."

    Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina smiled wryly, "So be it then. Let''s go."

    She had actually been hiding in Snowy Pavilion City and she had already known that there would be a council here by the divine consorts.

    Therefore, she had purposely waited for this moment to announce her dramatic return.

    She raised her profound voice to say to the rest of the divine consorts with a wry smile, "Let it be known to all in the Spirit Divine Realm that your Goddess and the First Divine Consort Ai Tina is now back. May the light of the Great Beyond Goddess shines upon you and the darkness retreated to the great void."

 Chapter 791 Ultra Sword Spirit

    ?

    Snowy Pavilion City;

    In the tavern of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    One may think that the Smiling Divine Maiden was busy in trying to help Ji Yuan to recover from his ailments.

    That was the thoughts of the 5 divine consorts and many of their female followers.

    Everyone knows that Ji Yuan have just fought the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and such an epic battle between them must have caused a hidden toil upon their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    But for some others like Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong and Xiao Muhan, they feared that Ji Yuan was doing some other things with the Smiling Divine Maiden instead for the past several days.

    None of them got it fully right.

    On the second day, Ji Yuan was still copting with the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue; he just could not get enough of her soft and entrancing body that almost all men had secretly coveted.

    Chu Lixue was greatly exhausted but Ji Yuan kepting like a beast of a man.

    So, she asked him on the second day with an exhausted look, "Can we stop now? You have already fully recovered. I am more than a victim than you are from that stupid divine pill."

    Ji Yuan pretended to look as innocently as possible, "But senior sister, my own body, I know best. I am not fully healed yet. So, I still need your help. Surely you don''t want your future lord to die or have a bad cultivation core due to this, am I right? If you don''t help me, I''ll tell your father about your trial here and how you''ve refused to help me."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan, you are threatening your senior sister again. You have taken advantage of me of my good heart, bully me, force me to be your whore and have taken away my chastity. You are really a rascal like my father calls you. You should change your name to Rascal Ji Yuan. I really don''t understand why the other maidens like you for. You got nothing except for a beautiful face."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "But senior sister, I think that you are also enjoying it too. Right?"

    Chu Lixue hummed softly, "Whether I enjoying it or not, is none of your business¡­"

    But she was suddenly gasping when Ji Yuan had flipped her over and he was opening up her jaded legs widely to look in-between, "Don''t¡­ don''t look¡­"

    She quickly put her jaded slender hands to cover her crotch, "Ji Yuan, you are too much. I am not a free of charge maiden like my prot¨¦g¨¦ sister the Lovely Empress. So let me go now."

    Ji Yuanughed as he took out 5 immortal jades and put it on her beautiful breasts, "Senior sister, how about these immortal jades then?"

    Chu Lixue was startled, "5 immortal jades? Where did you get these? And how did you be so rich? That is worth 500 million high grade spirit stones. Are you sure that you want to give it to me?"

    She softened her tone to say quietly, "You should keep it for yourself to increase your own cultivation¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a soft chuckle, "After giving senior sister 5 immortal jades, I still have 25 immortal jades. I also have 1000 spirit jades on me. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue was not startled but stunned.

    It is because 25 immortal jades are like 2.5 billion high grade spirit stones and 1000 spirit jades are like 1 billion high grade spirit stones.

    In total, these are worth 3.5 billion high spirit stones!

    Chu Lixue was suddenly gasping, "No wonder you have been acting so weirdly since yesterday. Ji Yuan, don''t tell me that you have been a duck since you have arrived here to earn all these rare spirit stones? I didn''t expect that you will be so filthy and decadent. You have really disappointed me¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Senior sister, you have misunderstood¡­"

    "I see now," Chu Lixue had suddenly given Ji Yuan a tight p. "It is no wonder that the 5 divine consorts will be so protective over you. I see that you have already sold your body to them for these rare spirit stones¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Listen to me, senior sister. It isn''t what you think it is. I can exin from the very start¡­"

    But all the sudden Chu Lixue was trying to p him while Ji Yuan was blocking his face with his hands.

    It was a most awkward situation since the two of them were naked.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue hummed coldly as she aimed a kick at his little brother, "Take this, you decadent beast of a man¡­"

    Ji Yuan used his sword finger to knock her leg down, "That isn''t too nice, senior sister. Or should I call you my dear Consort Lixue now?"

    Chu Lixue had also raised her sword fingers, "You dare to use your fingers to hit your senior sister now? And stop pointing your ugly little brother at me¡­"

    All of a sudden, they were sparring furiously with their sword fingers.

    But all of a sudden, their sword spirits had suddenly red brilliantly, appearing on both of their foreheads.

    Chu Lixue did not know why her sword spirit had suddenly appeared but she was gasping. "Ji Yuan, your 2 sword spirits have be 1 in your forehead?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised too when he saw that his sword spirits had suddenly red up on its own and his forehead was now burning with great pain for no other reason.

    But after his senior sister had told him that his two sword spirits had appeared on his forehead, he was stunned. "It is impossible for 2 sword spirits to appear in the same location, am I right?"

    Chu Lixue was looking perplexed too and she was staring at Ji Yuan''s forehead for an answer, forgetting that they were both naked together and entangled together.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were surprised inside of Ji Yuan''s soul sea as they asked each other: Huh?!

    Finally, Chu Lixue blinked her eyes to say, "Ji Yuan, I think I have heard about this before. There is no doubt that our sword spirits are resonating together after our yin-yang exchange because they are a perfect match for each other. We need to cultivate our sword spirits together. After that we can both receive a boost to our sword dao and our sword spirits will also be stronger when we are together."

    Ji Yuan was also looking excited too, "Hmm, my old man which is your father used to tell me ultra sword spirits do exist but very few sword cultivators have ever attained it. Is this it?"

    Chu Lixue was smiling divinely, "I think so. And that is why your two sword spirits are now merging into one."

    Ji Yuan asked, "I don''t understand. I have 2 sword spirits but you have only 1. But why are mine merging?"

    Chu Lixue giggled, "Isn''t it obvious? My sword spirit is obviously stronger than yours. You need 2 of your sword spirits to merge in order to bepatible to mine."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "This is just your wild guess, am I right to say so?"

    Chu Lixue caught hold of Ji Yuan''s hands, "Ji Yuan, let''s cultivate now. Alright? Our sword spirits are resonating with each other. This is a good chance to advance our sword spirit to the ultra sword spirit."

    "Wait, senior sister." Ji Yuan said with a pondering expression, "If my sword spirits merge together, then I will only be left with 1 sword spirit. How the heck can I lift my other divine sword without my sword spirit? Have you considered this before?"

    "Ji Yuan!" Chu Lixue was exasperated, "Why do you need to talk so much? Let''s do it before our lucky urrence is over. I don''t want to miss such a chance and who knows if we may get another chance like this?"

    Ji Yuan asked again, "Erm, senior sister. How exactly do we cultivate our sword spirits to the ultra sword spirits then?"

    Chu Lixue was startled before she answered honestly, "I¡­ I don''t know¡­"

    "I know," Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning.

    Chu Lixue gasped with great delight as she returned a coyly look at him, "You know?"

    Ji Yuan grinned and he was already looking at every single inch of his senior sister''s entrancing body, "We have to continue to copte. I give you my yang essence and you shall give me your yin essence. Maybe that is how the way it works."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan pretended to look solemn, "We have to do our dragon and phoenix coption dance again. This round time, we''ll try all the different postures to see which one really affects our sword spirits the most."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

 Chapter 792 The Goddess Ai Tina

    ?

    For 7 days and 7 nights, plenty of unspeakable things happened between Ji Yuan and the Smiling Divine Maiden inside Ji Yuan''s personal room.

    One thing for sure was that Ji Yuan had thoroughly taken advantage of the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and consummated their marriage early.

    As a result, they were able to raise the state of divinity of their sword spirits to the state of divinity of the ultra sword spirits.

    When Ji Yuan had exited his personal room, the Smiling Divine Maiden had quickly exited without even saying a farewell to him.

    The only words that she said to Ji Yuan were, "You are too depraved and I''ll never want to see you again!"

    She was naturally not serious about not seeing Ji Yuan again and Ji Yuan knows it too.

    She looked extremely awkward and coquettish looking; the 7 days and 7 nights with Ji Yuan was something that she would never forget because she had lost count on how many times that Ji Yuan had copted with her and she had lost the number of times that she had climaxed.

    Ji Yuan was looking thinner as he exited his personal room and many of the maidens in the tavern were gasping at how serious Ji Yuan''s ailments had been.

    A female follower of the Great Divine Consort excitingly said to him, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan! You have exited your cultivation in just the timely manner. My great divine consort has told me to call you to the meeting room when you are up. It is quite urgent."

    Ji Yuan was surprised, "To the meeting room? This is something new. I''ve never been there before. What is so urgent about this?"

    Before the female follower could answer, Maiden Flower Ju and Xiao Muhan had hurriedly approached him with an excited look.

    Maiden Flower Ju gasped excitingly, "Master Ji¡­I mean Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, you have finally exited your cultivation. I''vee to look for you the instant I have received word that you are finally out."

    "Rascal! You didn''t die yet!" Xiao Muhan wasughing excitingly, "You can''t believe who have juste with the 5 divine consorts?"

    Ji Yuan had a perplexed look and he had a guilty look all of a sudden, "Erm, don''t tell me that Maiden Ling Feiyue or Shui Xisi is here?"

    Xiao Muhan chuckled, "Not them!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Good to know. Haha¡­"

    But he suddenly asked with a frown, "Don''t tell me the Lovely Empress or Maiden Zhi Jiugong is here?"

    Xiao Muhan was also frowning, "What is wrong with you today? You seem afraid that they may be here?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course not! I am just hoping to see them after all. Haha¡­"

    Although he did not want to encounter them now but he actually wished that they were here also; it was because he did not want any other male cultivators to flirt with his maidens or to green him.

    Xiao Muhan patted Ji Yuan on his back before saying, "Guess what? The Ancient First Divine Consort and Goddess Ai Tina is just here! You can''t believe how peerless she is. You got to see to believe it! Especially¡­ heehee¡­"

    He did not say her breasts aloud because Maiden Flower Ju was here.

    Maiden Flower Ju however was smiling as she said to Ji Yuan, "What a perfect timing that you are out. My great divine consort, the other 4 divine consorts and our Goddess Ai Tina have just asked about you just now. They are waiting for you in the meeting room. Please quickly follow me."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes to say weakly, "Alright¡­"

    As he followed Maiden Flower Ju, he was suddenly startled. "Wait a minute. Did you just say First Divine Consort? Didn''t she ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm a long time ago? Then she is an immortal?"

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled, "Indeed our Goddess Ai Tina is an immortal. And she is really friendly. Our whole city-state is so excited and everyone is now talking about this now."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, "I love a friendly divine consort most¡­"

    He was thinking.

    What if my trust points are 100 with an immortal divine consort? And moreover, she is the First Divine Consort.

    Then won'' I get the best reward in the entire trial for getting 100 trust points with her?

    I must be on my best and awesome performance then¡­

    As Ji Yuan followed Maiden Flower Ju to the meeting room and entered inside, the 5 divine consorts had just told the Goddess Ai Tina the secrets of the celestial incursions every 500 years.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Goddess Ai Tina looked really startled because this was really new to her as the rebels did not have this information and this information was also not avable to her 6 masters. And she had also just learnt that the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is actually a celestial.

    Ji Yuan was actually equally startled when he had first entered into the meeting room and saw the Goddess Ai Tina.

    She was exactly just as Xiao Muhan had described and more.

    Ji Yuan saw that the Goddess Ai Tina really had a most peerless looks and her slender body was supporting her long jaded white bosoms which immediately Ji Yuan had a dry throat as he stared at her bosoms.

    Her bosoms were exposed except for her nipples.

    And she was also smiling seductively at him, "So this is Ji Yuan the new Great Spiritas Hero?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and the other 4 divine consorts were all smiling with great delight when they saw that Ji Yuan had exited his personal room in a timely manner.

    "Yes, he is our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan." The 5 divine consorts said excitingly at the same time.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was smiling, "He really has a beautiful face."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her praising him, he could not help being proud of that and he was grinning with a respectful hand bow. "My humble respects to the Goddess Ai Tina. Indeed, I am Ji Yuan but I can''t im to be a Great Spiritas Hero. After all, it is just a fluke that I was able to kill an immortal divine lord. Hahaha¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina returned a faint smile, "A heroic deed is to be sung by all. So, you don''t have to be humble. You are indeed our great spiritas hero¡­"

    As she said that, she was also quietly appraising Ji Yuan''s cultivation and he looked most ordinary.

    She was actually about to ask more questions to Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and why she had failed her ascension when this Ji Yuan had suddenly arrived.

    Her 6 masters have given her a spirit talisman that contained their soul attacks. With just a flicker of her fingers, she would be able to materialize it in her fingers to shoot it toward him.

    The effective killing range of this soul attack spirit talisman is line of sight and it will work instantly on the intended target.

    Because this is a spirit talisman and not a physical talisman, it is impossible for her intended target to block or evade it.

    This spirit talisman will instantly crash the soul core of its intended target and destroys the cultivation core of the cultivator instantly.

    All it required from her will be a blink of an eye to flicker her fingers and to use this spirit talisman that is hidden in her soul sea.

    Even for an immortal like herself, this spirit talisman will still kill her instantly even though she is a spirit cultivator; it is because her 6 masters are all spirit cultivators of the 9th Spirit Realm and it is impossible to resist thebine might of their 6 soul attacks.

    This spirit talisman however is a one time use only and is intended to be used to avenge the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    To the spirit cultivators in the Spirit Divine Realm, this spirit talisman can be considered to be a most precious immortal profound treasure because it can used to virtually kill any cultivators and even most of the high level powerful spirit beasts.

    Unfortunately, the Goddess Ai Tina has only 1 because it is far more precious to make more since it required the cultivation attainment of her 6 masters to make this.

    The Goddess Ai was looking at Ji Yuan and she was smiling now.

    Ji Yuan suddenly had goosebumps on his back because he was extremely sensitive to hidden killing intents and he can easily sniff someone from a mile who is trying to kill him.

    But he continued to pretend to smile with great delight even though he was now smiling bitterly in his heart and he was prepared to attack at any time.

    What he did not know that this was an opponent that could literally kill him with a flicker of her fingers at any time and he had no resistance against the soul attack of her spirit talisman.

 Chapter 793 JYs Awesome Reward From The Goddess Ai Tina

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now forcing himself to look as casual as possible when he was facing this Goddess Ai Tina.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was suddenly by his right side as she giggled softly, "Great Spiritas Hero Yuan Beluga, do you know how lucky you are? Our Goddess Ai Tina says she is going to give you a reward for killing the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and she wants to hear your ounts on how you have killed him."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly when he had heard her as he thought: Isn''t this the same as telling this Goddess Ai all my trump cards?

    All of a sudden Divine Consort Tang Manni was on his left side as she pulled him to the left. And she was saying to him, "Master Ji Yuan,e over to me and my sister side. Look at you, you have be so thin. Are your injuries healed now?"

    "No, over here." Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was pulling him to the right side.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "Why don''t the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuanes over to my side?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But he quickly pretended to chuckle in a most casual manner, "Since the Goddess Ai Tina has invited me to your side, Ji Yuan is most honor to join you over there."

    When he had said that, even divine consorts Ding Jie''Er and Tang Manni had no other choice but to let go off him; it was because the divine will of the Goddess Ai Tina was supreme to them.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei looked a little disappointed that Ji Yuan was not able to join her sister and her on their side¡­

    Even divine consorts Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were looking a little disappointed.

    None of them dared to make a ruckus in this meeting room because they had the Goddess Ai Tina with them.

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he walked over to where the Goddess Ai Tina was as he asked, "I wonder what my reward will be?"

    This meeting room wasrge and there was a circr table in the middle where the divine consorts were all standing around it.

    The star of this circr table was naturally the Goddess Ai Tina and right now, Ji Yuan was moving to where she was standing.

    As soon as Ji Yuan walked to her side with a grin, the Goddess Ai Tina smiled again to say. "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, you''re indeed much more handsome up close than from afar. Or should I call you, Celestial Great Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he thought: She knows that I am a celestial?!

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun who was the nearest to them quickly smiled, "We have told our Goddess Ai about the celestial incursions and we have told her that you are a celestial from the Celestial Realm. That is how she knows. But don''t worry, our Goddess Ai Tina knows that you are on a trial and you are not a bad cultivator."

    Ji Yuan however was smiling quite bitterly when his identity got exposed.

    But he quickly said with a weak smile, "I didn''t mean to lie to the Goddess Ai Tina about my identity. I hope that the Goddess Ai Tina isn''t offended by the reason why I didn''t disclose where I havee from."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "Not at all. Not all celestials are bad and there are many good celestials too¡­"

    Then she took a look at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and smiled wryly, "Like the heroic father of our worthy Dongfang Xin here."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was touched and bleary eyed when the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly mentioned her father as heroic and that she was worthy.

    She said with a look of determination, "Dongfang Xin is willing toy down my life to do the Goddess Ai Tina''s biddings!"

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was still smiling rather forcefully; it was because even though the Goddess Ai Tina did not mind that he is a celestial, he can still feel her hidden killing intents for him.

    Actually, the Goddess Ai Tina had carefully concealed her killing intents for Ji Yuan and it was undetectable to most.

    For a spirit cultivator, this was actually very easy.

    Most of the divine consorts are mostly emotionless and it is almost impossible to see their moods if they did not want to disy it.

    The first time that Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan had met Divine Consort Tang Manni was one such example; they did not know what her moods were or have an idea about her intentions.

    Ji Yuan may not be able to read a person''s moods but he is very good in sniffing a person''s killing intentions. And this sense of his is even more formidable when he has mastered the seventh sense of his Divine Heart Intricacy.

    So at point nk, he knows that this Goddess Ai Tina was thinking of killing him. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    He knows that this was just a matter of time before they would actually fight.

    What he did not know is that this Goddess Ai Tina can kill him in a blink of an eye even before he can realize it due to a special spirit talisman profound treasure and this did not even require her to use any of her profound strength.

    Ji Yuan had also noticed that the Goddess Ai Tina''s killing intent was not just directed at him but also at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei as well.

    Why is that so?

    Because she is jealous of her enticing beauty?

    The Goddess Ai Tina was now smiling to Ji Yuan, "I have promised to give you a reward for your heroic deed in killing the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Xu Yifei and the other divine consorts have actually wanted to make you a divine lord but I''m afraid that I can''t grant this to you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I actually don''t want to be any divine lord or great spiritas hero. I am actually not looking to obtain any reward for killing Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong."

    He had lied of course.

    Ji Yuan is never a righteous hero and he likes to have his rewards.

    99.99% of the cultivators are all seeking their rewards for the trials that they are taking, in order to obtain a cultivation breakthrough and there are many greedy cultivators.

    Although Ji Yuan is greedy as well but he has his own martial code of honor and he will never help the evil cultivators.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled gently at Ji Yuan, "Even though you may not want any reward but I''ll insist on granting you a reward. I''ll make you my personal guard of honor then. Even if you cannot be a divine lord but a being my personal guard will grant you fame and renown throughout the Spirit Divine Realm. This is even better than carrying the infamy name of a divine lord."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I don''t want to be alone with you¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Divine Consorts Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin were all gasping with great delight and happiness as they looked at Ji Yuan; this was even better than what they had nned and they were all very happy for Ji Yuan.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni quicky said to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, don''t be so wooden and quickly thanks our Goddess Ai Tina!"

    Ji Yuan faked a jovial face as he offered his thanks, "I am greatly honored to be a personal guard of the Goddess Ai Tina. This is the best ever reward for me."

    Although he had said that, he was actuallyughing bitterly in his heart.

    The Goddess Ai was smiling at Ji Yuan, "This is good. I''m d that you like my reward for you."

    Ji Yuan could see the joyous looks that were on the 5 divine consorts and he did not want to spoil their happy looks so he had to swallow this bitter pill and pretended tough jovially, "I am indeed very pleased with this reward. I can''t be any happier."

    Thest remark of his was just cold sarcasm on his part.

    The Goddess Ai Tina turned to smile at everyone, "Besideing to the Spirit Divine Realm to hunt down Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, I am also here to do several things as well."

    All 5 divine consorts, including Ji Yuan were all looking curiously at her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled captivatingly, "I am also here to aplish 4 main things¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought sarcastically: Let me guess. One of the 4 main things is to kill me?

    But he quicklyughed to himself: It is impossible. Also, I have no feud with this Goddess Ai Tina. Even if this is true, she won''t say it out.

 Chapter 794 The 4 Tasks Of The Goddess Ai Tina (1)

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled captivatingly to Ji Yuan and the 5 divine consorts that were presented before she said wryly, "I have 4 main things to aplish here."

    "Firstly, since I am already here, I may as well help you to get rid of the rebels."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was gasping, "Your Goddess, but this won''t be easy. We have been fighting against the rebels for thousands of years. They are like vermin that cannot be ridden of. While they are weak, our main problem is that they do have some nasty spirit arrays that always give them ample time to escape from us¡­"

    Ji Yuan first encounter with Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was when she had suddenly appeared in mid-air like a battle angel and she was in the process of cleaning out a rebel hideout.

    He thought: Well, if you aren''t this dramatic and got distracted by the rebel fighters that are purposely trying to distract you to buy time for their senior rebels to escape, maybe you have a better luck.

    But for Ji Yuan, he would not use the same tactic as her; it was because he would rather aim for the leadership first, just like he did for the ck Hand assassination group.

    Even Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was nodding with the rest of the divine consorts, "These rebels are really like the vermin and cannot die offpletely. They are also a cult that worshipped the True Devil God and the divine lords¡­ it quite impossible for our Goddess Ai Tina to exterminate them in such a short amount of time."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "Thank you for trying to save my honor if I do fail. I know that this may be a most difficult task within such a short period of time. I will do my best for this. After all, I am already here. It will be against my honor to turn my eyes to these pests, don''t you think so?"

    When the 5 divine consorts saw that their Goddess Ai Tina was so righteous, they did not try to persuade her anymore.

    In fact, they were beaming with a righteous cause as well and it shamed them for not working together to get rid of the rebels.

    The Goddess Ai Tina added with a wry smile, "Secondly, I''ll need plenty of immortal jades for my cultivation breakthrough. That will be as many as 10 000 immortal jades. This will be a lot and although I know that all the city-states will be kind enough to donate it to me but I don''t want to be a dictator or a beggar. I shall look for a solution for this."

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Well, you have already told them that you need 10 000 immortal jades. These divine consorts will definitely try to curry your favor by making massive donations to you. Although I got 25 immortal jades, I''m not going to give you any. So, you can dream on about obtaining mine for free¡­ haha¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said righteously, "If our Goddess Ai Tina needs help for a breakthrough, I will definitely do my best to contribute to the glory of our goddess."

    The other 4 divine consorts were also nodding and agreeing.

    Only Ji Yuan was rolling his sheepish eyes as he said to himself: These maidens are too gullible. It is no wonder this is a SS Trial. Only I can save them from their foolishness.

    Xiang Li had heard Ji Yuan''s thoughts and she began to giggle: Big Brother, you are always super cautious and always wrong. This is really a bad habit and you ought to kick this. She looks like a really good addition to my harem.

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li: You are too young, too simple Xiang Li. Learn from me instead! I have sensed killing intentions from her!

    He was the only one that could sense the killing intentions of the Goddess Ai Tina, so he could understand why Xiang Li did not feel the same way as him.

    Then he added to Xiang Li: And what the heck is this thing that I am always wrong?! When did I ever got things wrong?

    Xiang Li pointed out with a chuckle: Tang Manni, Xu Yifei, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin. You don''t even know that they are all divine consorts and I told you to court them but you''ve refused to! You should have listened to me, you know.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Fairy Anyang was also smiling, "I really like this Goddess Ai Tina. She looks like a righteous immortal, not unlike someone here."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What?! All my spirit fairies are on my enemy''s side?!

    Even Xu Yifei and Tang Manni¡­

    No wait, all 5 of the divine consorts actually¡­

    The Goddess Ai Tina continued to speak while Ji Yuan was talking to Xiang Li and Anyang,

    "Thirdly, I will like to bear witness to the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower and I wish to offer my hearty congrattions to the 6 divine consorts that are able to enter the finals to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm. These 6 divine consorts will also be the ones that I''ll be seeing very soon and they will also be my faithful immortal followers in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    When she had said that, there was a tempting look in the eyes of divine consorts Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er as they said excitingly. "We will do our best to find the best champions for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower to win 1 of the 6 divine seats!"

    Only Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei did not say a word but she had merely smiled; it was because she had no wish to ascend as an immortal.

    But as soon as Divine Consort Tang Manni had said out her excitement for the Spiritas Tower, she had caught a look at Ji Yuan and she thought: Or maybe not.

    Ding Jie''Er was also affected by the arousing words of her Goddess Ai Tina but when she saw her Yuan Beluga next to the Goddess Ai Tina, he was like the devil that dampened her passion to be an immortal¡­

    She was thinking: If I ascend to be an immortal divine consort then I can''t be with my Yuan Beluga anymore. Right?

    The Goddess Ai Tina chuckled softly as she announced mysteriously, "Now for my fourth main thing. The fourth is a little tough even for me. I am going to visit the Oracle of Delphi when the legendary Secret Oracle Gate descends in a matter of days."

    All 5 of the divine consorts were all gasping with startled looks, "The legendary Secret Oracle Gate?!"

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that the 5 divine consorts were even trembling¡­

    He asked himself curiously: What is going on here? What is this Secret Oracle Gate all about?"

 Chapter 795 The 4 Tasks Of The Goddess Ai Tina (2)

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina had announced that that her fourth main thing was to pay a visit to the Oracle of Delphi and for that, it requires her to enter the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.

    Right now, all 5 of the divine consorts were gasping with shocks and surprises.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin muttered with a look of disbelief, "The legendary Secret Oracle Gate is said to appear every 3000 to 6000 years. No one knows the exact time or where it is going to appear in the high mountains. And it is only opened for 3 days¡­"

    "That'' right and that is why even if it has appeared, there is a good chance that everyone will miss it." Divine Consort Tang Manni pointed out with a startled look.

    This legendary Secret Oracle Gate has existed since the dawn of time and its origin is shrouded in mystery.

    But one thing is for sure.

    Inside the Secret Oracle Gate, is the Oracle of Delphi and anyone can ask 1 question from it.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "I know what you are all thinking about and you are all thinking that it is impossible to know its exact appearance time or its fixed location. But I can tell you that I''ve been to the Oracle of Delphi before and my question is to reveal the secrets of its opening. The Oracle of Delphi however, only tell me a future opening and says that I''ll be needing a future question in the far future. I believe that this is the time."

    Then she said solemnly, "However I have no wish to divulge its forting sacred location. So I hope that none of you will reveal this secret. I don''t want any others to startbing the mountains for it and I don''t want to be disturbed. But I will bring 2 persons with me who has the most fate to do so."

    All 5 of the divine consorts quickly put aside their excitement and said solemnly, "We won''t tell anyone about this. This will be an absolute secret!"

    The five consorts were all thinking: who are the 2 of us? Who are the 2 lucky ones?

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled in their direction and said, "Xu Yifei, you wille with me to the Secret Oracle Gate to assist me."

    When she had said that, the other 4 divine consorts looked a little disappointed but they still have a chance, right?

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was actually truly delighted that her sister had been given this honor.

    The Goddess Ai Tina however had turned to look at Ji Yuan with a wry smile, "This chance naturally has to go to my guard of honor Ji Yuan. After all, I need a personal guard there and that ce is dangerous even for an immortal. We will set off in 3 days'' time."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I didn''t say that I want to go, right?

    What if this ce is a make-believe ce and her intention is actually to kill Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and I?

    Also, I lost so much of my profound strength after my cultivation with my senior sister. Maybe this is a good excuse to decline to go with her?

    But Xu Yifei will be in danger¡­

    Crap¡­

    Xiang Li giggled to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you think too much. She is a nice goddess.

    Fairy Anyang was giggling too: This may be a chance to ask the Oracle of Delphi on how to improve your weak cultivation or a way to remove the demonic sword inside your spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan smiled most bitterly: Actually, I want to ask the Oracle of Delphi how to kick the 2 of you away.

    Xiang Li, Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    The other 4 divine consorts were now congratting Ji Yuan and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei for having the chance to go to the Oracle of Delph.

    And Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was now offering her thanks to the Goddess Ai Tina for given such a great honor; it was because it was considered to be a great honor for a divine consort to seek the sacred Oracle of Delphi.

    "I am truly blessed to be given such a great honor by the Goddess Ai Tina to follow you into the Secret Oracle Gate."

    Ji Yuan pretended to be delighted, "I am also truly d to be given this great honor of ''apanying'' both the Goddess Ai Tina and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. Don''t worry about your safety. I will surely protect the two of you with my ''life''."

    The Goddess Ai Tina looked pleased with his answers as she returned a smiling nod.

    She was actually thinking of using the Oracle of Delphi to find out if the True Devil God was really back.

    It was because she could find no indication of any dark profound darkness with the divine spiritpass that her 6 masters have given her.

    Her 6 masters could not be wrong. The profound disturbance hade from the location of Snowy Pavilion City.

    But when she used the divine spiritpass which was also given to the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, there waspletely no indication.

    Now this divine spiritpass is also an immortal profound treasure and it has a range of 100 000 miles. So, this ruled out the chance that the cause of the dark profound darkness disturbance had been moved or ''he'' had moved away, hence causing it to fail.

    Unknown to the Goddess Ai Tina and everyone else, the cause of this dark profound darkness was actually caused when Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had first discovered the demonic sword that was inside Ji Yuan and she was trying to uproot it but was repelled by the demonic sword instead.

    On the second time Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei tried to remove this demonic sword from Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea, she had encountered the voice of the Great Beyond Goddess instead and was told not to disturb this ''demonic sword'' or to tell anyone about this.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    That was why since then, there was no more appearance of this pure dark profound darkness.

    The Goddess Ai Tina naturally had a reason why she had picked Ji Yuan and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to follow her; it is because these are the 2 that deserved to be killed by her.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Is she thinking of killing me and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei?

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, you are too meanie to think of this. Maybe she wants you to bang her and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei at the same time?

    When Ji Yuan heard Ji Yuan, he nearly destroyed his fake smiles that he was disying in front of the Goddess Ai Tina and the 5 divine consorts.

    He said exasperatingly to her: Xiang Li, beside being a useless fairy spirit, your suggestions are also useless as well. If I did not give you a divine sword, you will bepletely useless to me. Now I feel so ashamed whenever I call out my divine sword by your name."

    Xiang Li protested immediately: But don''t you want to bang Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei? Your body is so honest when she enters your soul sea, you know¡­."

    Then she giggled to add: Fully naked, twice over.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hepletely given up on talking to Xiang Li now: Xiang Li, you arepletely hopeless to talk with. At least I still got Anyang with me¡­

    Fairy Anyang said innocently: But don''t you really want to bang this Xu Yifei? It is written all over you. When you were banging Maiden Chu Lixue, you were also thinking on nice if it were also Maiden Xu Yifei.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is the curse of having 2 sentient fairy spirits that can know all your thoughts?!

    The Goddess Ai Tina was suddenly saying to Ji Yuan, the smiles that she was also disying was also extremely captivating.

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, I believe that it is your turn now to talk about your epic battle with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Am I right to say so?"

    Ji Yuan was now smiling bitterly, "I am just too d to talk about my epic battle with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Haha¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "I have heard it from the 5 divine consorts that they were also there when you have fought with the evil Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. May you ount your battle to all of us once again and I will ensure that your heroic deeds will be sung forever to the untold generations ahead."

    Ji Yuan answered with a ''delighted'' chuckle, "I can''t wait. Haha¡­"

    The Goddess Ai answered with a wry smile, "But just in case, you miss out some details of your epic battle due to excitement, I shall have the 5 divine consorts here to help you to fill out the details."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was giggling with great delight, "I still remember vividly Great Spiritas Hero Yuan Beluga''s battle with the immortal divine lord, I can surely help to fill in the details¡­."

    Divine Consorts Sun Dingjun, Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were all saying the same, "I remember it too¡­I can help Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to remember the details¡­"

    Ji Yuan liked to boast of his heroic deeds to his drinking brothers but today, he was unable to feel any ''delight''; it was because he knows that the Goddess Ai Tina was forcing him to reveal his trump card 1 by 1.

    The Goddess Ai Tina took a wry smile at Ji Yuan''s face before she said to herself: I can kill you anytime with a flicker of my fingers but if I can kill you without using the spirit talisman then it is even better for me.

    She added with a wry smile to Ji Yuan, "Shall we start from the very beginning and how you have encountered the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong?"

    Ji Yuan in the meantime was muttering weakly, "So, where should I start the ount of my epic battle with the evil immortal divine lord? Let''s start with my kiss with the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei¡­"

    "No wait!" Ji Yuan had suddenly sobered up when he had realized that he had said the wrong things and he saw that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had lowered her head with a flustered look¡­

    "I mean¡­" he panicky exined, "It all started when a handsome stranger had suddenly asked me in the streets if I wanted to be his male harlot or die¡­"

 Chapter 796 Ji Yuan Becomes A Champion

    ?

    Three hours had passed and Ji Yuan had finally finished with his ount on his battle with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.

    His epic recounting was not as epic as he had wanted to imagine it to be.

    And the reason why it had taken him so long to finish was also because the Goddess Ai Tina was constantly interrupting him to ask him questions about his profound sword arts.

    "How does this Sword Domain works?"

    "What is the name of this Sword Domain?"

    "You can only use this Sword Domain only once?"

    "Isn''t this Life and Death Domain a dangerous sword art that require you to use your life force energies?"

    "How did you feel when the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong uses his attack spirit talismans on you?"

    And more.

    "So you are not just a sword saint but a sword deity with 4 Sword Domains. What a huge surprise." The Goddess Ai Tina smiled captivatingly at him.

    "You''re indeed worthy to be my personal guard of honor."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "Haha, like I say it is just a fluke. I was just lucky. This Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong is actually really very strong and I have only won because he was not familiar with my sword domains."

    Throughout his recounting, Ji Yuan had actually tried to paint himself as weak as possible.

    "I was faltering back then¡­"

    "It is a contest of willpower¡­"

    "Without the 5 divine consorts lending their presence as support for me, I wouldn''t have won¡­"

    "The Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong got careless¡­"

    "He didn''t know that I have 4 Sword Domains¡­"

    "Or two emperor-step divine swords¡­"

    "Or two sword spirits¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw that this Goddess Ai Tina merely smiled but she did not look too impressed with his 4 Sword Domains which could awe most cultivators.

    However, the 5 divine consorts did not think of that as too much of an issue because their Goddess Ai Tina is all too-powerful immortal in their minds. But they were certainly impressed by Ji Yuan and it showed on their beautiful countenances.

    But Ji Yuan saw it differently; this Goddess Ai Tina must have at least 1 trump card that could counter him or defeat him. That was the reason why she appeared to be nonchntly.

    Ji Yuan is no stranger to immortal cultivators.

    It is because his beloved Bai Qianfeng and long-timepanion is the Abyssal Null Goddess and she was not awe by him. In fact, she was the one that forced him to pick up a Sword Domain in the Demonic Divine Realm by using her immortal cultivation to aid him toy down an immortal sword array to aid him to be a sword immortal.

    Also, there is Yun Chi as well who is the Death God Mingwang.

    They are not impressed with him because they can much stronger than him anyway and he owes his deste cherubim spirit animus to Yun Chi as a matter of fact.

    And they want him to be even stronger.

    But Ji Yuan knows that he still got a long way to go before he can even fight these two superior immortals on an even ground.

    It freaks him to this day when he had suddenly realized how powerful a great goddess his Bai Qianfeng was in the Demonic Divine Realm when she was no longer restricted in her cultivation profound strength.

    And to think that he had once tried to skin her alive when she was his spirit fox pet for some spirit stones.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had now turned to smile wryly at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "I have heard that you are supposed to ascend 500 years ago. So, what exactly happens and why did you fall from grace? This is most unfortunately or else you would surely be one of my most capable immortal divine consorts in the Greater Spirit Realm."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She neglected to say: One of her most captivating and enticing immortal divine consort to serve the 6 Supreme Divine Gods in the Greater Spirit Realm. Perhaps even the most favored until another divine consort with a special constitution hase along in the future.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled by this question but she quicklyposed herself to look in the eyes of the Goddess Ai Tina and the other 4 divine consorts.

    This was her darkest secret for the past 500 years and not even her sister was aware of what she had sensed on that day.

    At that time, she had rather given up on the bestowed spiritual strength from the Greater Divine Realm and gave up her chance for ascension.

    There was a price though for this and it was a strong bacsh to her own soul core, crippling her cultivation in the progress.

    From that day onward, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had be Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei and she had be a mockery in the entire 12 major city-states in the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    But now, the Goddess Ai Tina was here.

    Maybe she should really share her misgiving on that day?

    But all of a sudden, she had remembered what her Great Mistress the Great Beyond Goddess had told her, "You are not wrong in not ascending. That is all that I can tell you."

    She lifted her enticing eyes to answer, "I was too young back then and too proud of myself. So, my cultivation realm is no as stable as what the rumors have said. For this I have misjudged myself and only myself to me for this."

    The Goddess Ai Tina looked at her to sense if there were any slight fluctuations in her emotions or heartbeat but there were none.

    Ji Yuan was able to mask his emotions and heartbeats with his Divine Heart Intricacy while Xu Yifei was able to hide her giveaways with her superior spirit cultivation.

    So, the Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "It is alright. Now you have got another chance. I can even grant you a special exception too."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly returned a half-bow and said quietly, "I have mentioned before to the other 4 divine consorts and even the rest of the 36 divine consorts from the other city-states that I won''t be joining the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower this time round."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "This won''t do. A divine consort with a special spirit constitution like yourself only exist to serve me in the Greater Spirit Realm. Therefore, my divine decree is for you to go to the Spiritas Tower."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled and there was a look of confusion in her enticing eyes, "But I have no champions too¡­"

    "That''s easy." The Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly looked at Ji Yuan, "My personal guard of honor shall be your champion in the Spiritas Tower."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did someone ask me for my opinion?

    But he could only bitterly smile: We are all yed by this Goddess Ai Tina¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was gasping softly, "My champion is Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    The other 4 divine consorts were all gasping with the same shocking sentiment that Ji Yuan would be a champion for the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    However, none of them were jealous of her and was in fact, happy for her instead.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was even smiling, "Maybe this time our Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei may even ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm to be an immortal divine consort."

    Even Divine Consort Xin wereughing softly, "With our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to help her, she can definitely be able to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm. However, I am not going to lose my ce to ascend and I think I have several good champions to represent me."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun looked a little sheepish, "I have Xiao Muhan who is Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan''s good brother. But he is not even close to a fighter like his Brother Ji Yuan. I think I should find a more capable champion instead."

    When she had said that, this invoked a soft chuckle from the other 3 divine consorts.

    Only Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei were looking more cool to this. But this was normal since they were the center of the attention.

 Chapter 797 Ji Yuan Fightback, With Words (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was not someone that would follow a scriptpletely ordingly to the wishes of his nners.

    So, he purposely said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "I will really like to thank the Goddess Ai Tina into making me a champion of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. I do like to be a champion in the Spiritas Tower but in my heart, I have already picked Divine Consort Tang Manni to be my patron divine consort¡­"

    He was suddenly sighing as he looked at Divine Consort Tang Manni and he blinked his eyes once to give a hint to her to follow his new script.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled by Ji Yuan''s sudden announcement.

    "Master Ji Yuan has actually chosen to be my champion? Really¡­"

    She was muttering to herself but at the same time she was quite touched as she looked at Ji Yuan slowly and she was suddenly flushing.

    Ji Yuan saw that she was flushing: Don''t just stand there and flush. Say something¡­ better yet, say that I am your champion¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni finally returned a flustered smile, "It is alright. My sister Yifei the Great Divine Consort deserves a champion such as our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to help her. I am perfectly alright. Moreover, I have other champions too."

    Ji Yuan was stunned: Erm, this isn''t my script¡­ she isn''t following my script at all¡­

    Divine Consort Tang Manni did not even know what her script is and she had thought that Ji Yuan had blinked his eyes once to indicate to her that he had not forgotten her over her Sister Xu Yifei.

    But he was frowning quickly with a look of horror: What? She has other champions too? Who dares to green me?!

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was really not telling a lie. She indeed had several champions to use. Not all of them were the celestials and this selection of champions were usually done several months earlier, consisting of both male and female champions.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "So this is settled then. Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan shall be the champion of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly before he chuckled with another n, "As you know that I am a celestial from the Celestial Realm. I am actually not familiar with the Spiritas Tower and I don''t even know what it is. Maybe the Goddess Ai Tina will be so kind enough to exin the history of the Spiritas Tower and what exactly it is?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni smiled, "Master Ji Yuan, I can exin to youter¡­"

    "It is alright. I can exin to him." The Goddess Ai Tina smiled as she cut in to say.

    She inhaled softly, "This Spiritas Tower is given to me by a powerful female immortal goddess from the Greater Spirit Realm. As this respected female immortal goddess did not leave behind her name, I am afraid that I am unable to provide her name."

    "Rather than to say that it is this female immortal goddess that gives me the Spiritas Tower, it is better to say that it is the remnant of her immortal will that was left behind to guide me to obtain the Spiritas Tower as my immortal profound treasure¡­"

    "¡­In this Spiritas Tower, she had left behind the secrets of ascending to the Greater Spirit Realm. And I have used that remnant of herst immortal power for my ascension¡­"

    "¡­Once I''ve ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, this Spiritas Tower bes a vessel and a mean for me to channel my spirit profound power to help the divine consorts in the Spirit Divine Realm to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm."

    "¡­therefore, every 500 years, for the past tens of thousands of years, I will choose 6 lucky divine consorts to continue the great tradition of our spiritas race to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm."

    The truth behind this was naturally a male immortal had suddenly appeared to Ai Tina and said to her that 13 male immortals from a ''Great Goddess'', which was their mistress would assist her in killing all the divine lords in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    He had lied to her of course for there was never a ''Great Goddess'' at all but the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    However, Ai Tina had believed him of course, since this great lie was advantageous for her and there were no disadvantages in it, especially when that male immortal had told her. "The name of the Great Goddess, you will know when you ascendter, has decided that you shall herald the start of a new era of female divine consorts into overthrowing all the depraved and evil divine lords that have gued the Spirit Divine Realm."

    "You shall be the First Divine Consort of the Spirit Divine Realm and when you have ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, you will be the most favored daughter of the Six Divine Heavenly Realms. And your name shall be used to lead all the other divine consorts in the future to ascend quickly to the Greater Spirit Realm to fight a holy war against the depraved immortal divine lords that have ascended in the past."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "However, you must not tell anyone in the Spirit Divine Realm that we are helping you because we are trying to help you to establish a female spiritas society in the Spirit Divine Realm due to all the injustice the female spiritas have been facing and we are male immortals."

    She had believed this male immortal back then and he had called himself Achilles, the greatest of all the legendary Spiritas heroes.

    And she had even given her chastity to him.

    But all she got in the end was an borate web of lies that were created by the 6 Supreme Divine Gods to turn her and all the divine consorts into their harlots.

    There was never a ''Great Goddess'' in the first ce but the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    She had never thought that the depraved 6 Supreme Divine Gods would destroy the potential of their own spiritas race in order to turn all the female immortal spiritas into their immortal harlots.

    Because of one simple reason.

    There had never been a single female spiritas that had ever ascended in the first ce in the long history of the spiritas race.

    It was impossible for her to know the entire history of the Spiritas or the Spirit Divine Realm since the Spirit Divine Realm was ruled by the various petty city-states of the various depraved lords and each city-state had their own lore.

    That was why she could trust the Immortal Achilles, the so-called Greatest Hero of the spiritas that everyone had learnt to adorate as their very own ''greatest hero''.

    And she was no exception.

    Sending herself and all the future divine consorts to the Greater Spirit Realm as the harlots of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    As for Achilles the Greatest Hero of the Spiritas who was also the head of the 300 legendary spiritas heroes, he had never look for her for even once to exin his depraved actions.

    Not even when he had the chance to be granted a favor to be with her in the Greater Spirit Realm, he had rejected to meet her.

    To him, all he cared about was that he had once again aplished 1 more impossible task for the spiritas and his great deeds would be sung in the immortal Greater Divine Realm.

    To this day, she was still extremely bitter about Immortal Divine Lord Achilles.

    But today, she would be the same as the Immortal Divine Lord Achilles as she returned to cook up her own web of deceits to the gullible divine consorts in the Spirit Divine Realm who had all hail her as their Goddess Ai Tina, the greatest heroine of their spiritas race.

    But she was actually just the greatest harlot of their spiritas race.

    Back to the present, the Goddess Ai Tina was now smiling wryly to Ji Yuan. "So do you have any more questions?"

    Ji Yuan, being himself naturally have plenty of questions for her. It was because he was still soured after being grinded for hours by her and now it was the time to grind her back with all kinds of questions.

    Time for his great ''Revenge''.

 Chapter 798 Ji Yuan Fightback, With Words (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now nning his revenge by bombing her with all kinds of questions about the Spiritas Tower.

    Perhaps he may even find a helpful clue or two even that may even allow him to understand the Spiritas Tower a little better.

    So, he chuckled before asking, "How many tens of thousands of years have it been now? Surely you must have already won the holy war in the Greater Spirit Realm by now, right? At the rate of 6 divine consorts every 500 years, just how many immortal divine consorts are there in the Greater Spirit Realm now?"

    "As a champion for Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and also as a Great Spiritas Hero, what if my results are dismayed in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower? Won''t this affect my reputation or the great reputation of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei?"

    Ji Yuan had asked many questions at a single go because he was had suppressing his anger of being grinded relentless earlier for some time now.

    But now he was grinning back.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was smiling instead; it was because she had finally snapped him.

    While she had been grinding him, she had suddenly realized that he was not only a sword saint but a sword deity as well. Therefore, he should be able to sense her killing intents.

    And his attitude proves it.

    What Ji Yuan did not realize was that this Goddess Ai Tina was smarter than he had thought and even the Greatest Spiritas Hero Achilles had taken a long time to gain her trust.

    And the Greatest Spiritas Hero Achilles had gained her trust by deceiving her affections for him and she had be blinded by the emotion called ''love''.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was not worried about Ji Yuan''s possible dismally results in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower; it was all rigged by the 6 Supreme Divine Gods anyway.

    She answered slowly, "The holy wars between the immortal divine lords and the immortal divine lords have been waging for a long time in the Greater Spirit Realm. After all, it is an immortal realm that is 10 000 times bigger than the Spirit Realm here¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he interrupted with a soft gasp, "10 000 times bigger? How big exactly is the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    The Goddess Tina chuckled softly, "I have no idea as well but it isn''t possible for me to explore it entirely as there are plenty of dangerous immortal spirit beasts there as well. The Greater Spirit Realm is beautiful and vast world and my celestial sect is also 1000 times bigger than Snowy Pavilion City."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "There are so many immortals in the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    It was not just Ji Yuan that was interested to know more about the Greater Spirit Realm but the other 5 divine consorts were also astonished and they were also curious to know more.

    They were not as shameless as Ji Yuan who kept asking his questions nonstop, seeming having no regards to the fact that he was speaking to an immortal goddess.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled captivatingly at Ji Yuan, "We don''t have so many immortals in the Greater Spirit Realm. They are all scattered throughout the Greater Spirit Realm. The reason why it is so big is because we can all fly with a greater speed with our immortal profound strength in the Greater Spirit Realm and it is more convenient."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; he can''t really fly here. His normal spirit animus can''t allow him to float. But when he summoned his powerful deste cherubim spirit animus, he was able to do so and even glide but his flying speed was actually slower than his running speed.

    While it was useful to go up to the mountains and other obstacles but it exerted too much on his profound strength to maintain his spirit animus with his current cultivation realm.

    The same goes for the other 5 divine consorts as well; although they may be spirit cultivators and could float or do short burst of flying speed with their normal spirit animus but it will tax heavily on their profound strength. It is just not effective for them to fight in the air than on the ground.

    The Goddess Ai Tina continued with a smile and she was looking at Ji Yuan all this while.

    "Since this is a vast world, naturally our enemies the immortal divine lords have plenty of ces to hide from us¡­"

    "The purpose of this Spiritas Tower is to allow all the divine consorts to ascend to a single ce rather than randomly ascending into dangers in the Greater Spirit Realm. And that is how we are able get stronger and stronger than the immortal divine lords who before we havee, are more interested to fight among themselves¡­"

    "That is how we are able to turn the tables on them because we are more united than them and also because of our hatred for them¡­"

    Then she said with a sudden woeful look, "And as the Goddess Ai Tina and also the First Divine Consort, I have a duty to protect all the divine consorts that trust me to change their fates¡­"

    As she answered Ji Yuan, she was constantly looking at Ji Yuan and this gave him an uneasy feeling especially when he could feel her killing intentions.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was now not paying attention to her answers because he got a feeling that she was purposely making known of her killing intentions for him and that was what giving him the creeps.

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Ai Tina smiled to Ji Yuan, "I can see from your look that you may still have plenty of questions to ask me. Why don''t we have a private one to one chat instead? You can have as much time as you needed. I shall grant you this special privilege but there is one reasonable condition. You have to tell me more about your Celestial Realm too."

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded: No way! What if you were to invade my Celestial Realm like the way the Great Demon God invades mine. And the way the celestials invade yours. Maybe you are looking to take your revenge on my Celestial Realm instead¡­

    He quicklyughed, "I am still feeling weak from myst battle with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong so I am thinking of going back to recuperate further. Haha¡­"

    The Goddess Ai smiled, "I see. How about we meet in 3 days'' time in this ce to go to the Oracle of Delphi. I have something personal to settle first."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was surprised, "Our Goddess Ai Tina is not going to stay for the time begin? Maybe my ce is indeed too small. How about staying at the vi of my Sister Divine Consort Tang Manni or the vi of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin?"

    The Goddess Ai Tinaughed softly, "I really have something personal to attend to and moreover, this Ji Yuan here have just exited his short cultivation. I am sure that the 5 of you must have plenty of things to say to him."

    When she had said this, all 5 of the divine consorts were flustered and they were all looking at Ji Yuan; it was because they really have plenty of things to talk to him. After all, he had been in a cultivation retreat for the past 7 days to treat his ailments and he was looking much weaker than before.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was also d to be given the chance to gain back as much of his strength first for the next 3 days and he did not want to see this Goddess Ai Tina for the time being.

    He had lost too much of his yang essence to his senior sister the Smiling Divine Maiden and this was the ''strength'' that he was referring to.

    Xiang Li asked him in his soul sea: Big Brother, you don''t want to be alone with this Goddess Ai Tina? Why? It is your perfect chance to bang her, you know.

    Even Fairy Anyang was curiously asking: Yea, why my lord? This is so unlike you.

    But Ji Yuan answered them weakly: She is dangerous. Trust me, I know. I feel that things are not that simple.

    Xiang Li giggled: Nonsense Big Brother. She is a kind goddess thates from the Greater Spirit Realm and she is here to help the divine consorts to ascend. You are just too cautious.

    Fairy Anyang smiled with a knowing look: I have never seen someone like her that truly cares about her people. And she even wants to help the divine consorts in this ce to get rid of the rebels before she departs for the Greater Spirit Realm. You are just jealous that she is unattainable by an impure cultivator such as you while she is such a pure goddess.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled to Ji Yuan as she winked at him, "Let''s meet here in 3 days'' time then since you are still tired. If you got any other questions, I can answer you while we are on the way to the Oracle of Delphi."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Sure, sure¡­"

    He was thinking that Xu Yifei and him were probably not going to return from this trip.

    3 days are more than enough for this Goddess Ai Tina to think of a way to break his Sword Domains and he knows nothing about her profound skills.

    He got a really lousy feeling this time.

 Chapter 799 The Doubts Of Ji Yuan

    ?

    "Are you sure you don''t want toe along with me to protect me while I settle my personal matters for the next 3 days?" The Goddess Ai Tina smiled at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan naturally refused her by repeating his reasons again; he just did not want to be alone with her in his weaken state.

    "Then I shall not force you." The Goddess Ai Tina sighed softly.

    But this was just a tease as she already knows that Ji Yuan would not be willing to follow her and it was only out of politeness that she was asking him so that the other divine consorts would not be suspicious of her and it only shows the generous side of her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina soon left the meeting room to settle her personal matters.

    Ji Yuan was now left to face the 5 divine consorts who were all looking with great affections at him.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled, "Master Ji Yuan, you are officially our Great Spiritas Hero now. We have passed the decree of ourw to make you our Great Spiritas Hero while you are treating your injuries."

    "And you are also our Goddess Ai Tina''s personal bodyguard now." Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er winked at him as sheughed softly.

    But she was soon sighing, "This is such a great honor. I wish that I could be our Goddess Ai Tina''s personal guard as well."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was also sighing, "Same here as well!"

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "I don''t mind giving this honor to any one of you. Maybe I can talk with the Goddess Ai Tina about this."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun quickly said with a flustered look, "No, no! I am only teasing you. You are making me flushed. This is your honor alone and how can we think of robbing you of your honor? This is not the way of the spiritas."

    "That''s right." Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er nodded several times as she giggled a reply.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was also smiling to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, I am so d that you have be a champion for my sister¡­"

    Then she was quickly looking a little coyly as she said, "I didn''t know that you want to be my champion all this while¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is my original intention but now, it is screwed."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was sighing softly to Divine Consort Tang Manni, "I actually don''t want to join as a contestant for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. Sorry, my sister¡­"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was smiling as she looked at Ji Yuan, "It is a pity that you are not my champion. I''m sure that you will be able to help me to win 1 of the 5 seats in the Spiritas Tower."

    Ji Yuan thought that he had heard wrongly, "Huh? 5 seats? Aren''t there 6 seats in total?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled pleasantly, "You are not a spiritas and that is why you did not know about this. At the end of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, no matter what the result is, win or lose, 1 divine consort will be picked by the Spiritas Tower to be 1 of the 6 chosen. That is why in actuality, there are only 5 seats to be won."

    Ji Yuan began to ponder slowly, "I see¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled as he enticing eyes looked at Ji Yuan, "I have actually won thest Great Games of the Spiritas Tower in this manner. But I''ve wasted it by screwing it¡­"

    But she quickly returned another smile, "But I do not regret it or else I won''t be able to meet Master Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan answered matter of fact, "Your Spirit Race has such a long life. Longer than us. Surely you don''t need to ascend so quickly, am I right? Although we celestials also wished to ascend as quickly as possible but most of us actually ascend at the end of our life when we think that we are ready. It is because we can''t be sure if we are able to ascend to our immortal realm sessfully. The failure rate is actually 66% or more for us."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei lowered her head to say quietly, "Actually for us is almost 100% when we are using the Spiritas Tower. I am probably the only exceptional case to fail in tens of thousands of years. Also, it is quite hard for us to ascend on our own without any aid because we just don''t have the cultivation methods to do so."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin nodded slowly as she smiled, "That is why we are all thankful to our Goddess Ai Tina for giving us the Spiritas Tower. The other city-states outside of our Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad doesn''t even have this chance since they have chosen to break away from us a long time ago."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Maybe it is because for thousands of years, they never got the chance to win even once."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er chuckled, "Yuan Beluga really likes to tease us. They got weaker champions, that''s why. As you know, we have the celestials to aid us for the past several thousands of years. And these celestial champions only appear near the 12 major city-states and they are stronger cultivators than most of the champions elsewhere."

    Ji Yuanughed with some sarcasm, "That may be so. But I still think that¡­"

    He was once again looking at Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "That you may be picked to be a selected winner again. Because you are so beautiful."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei shook her head as she smiled weakly, "Thank your for your praise but this is quite impossible. I have already won thest time and it is unlikely for me to win the seat by lot again. There are 40 other divine consorts and the lots are always random."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "If I am an immortal that knows how to use the Spiritas Tower then I will definitely select the most beautiful maidens to ascend and to join me. Hahaha¡­"

    All 5 of the divine consorts were all smiling andughing jovially along with Ji Yuan.

    "We know that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is only teasing with us¡­"

    "He isn''t a lecherous cultivator or a depraved male immortal¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga is quite humorous¡­ and funny too¡­"

    Even Xiang Li wasughing along with Anyang in his soul sea: My Big Brother is so funny. This is the best joke that I''ve heard today¡­

    Ji Yuan wasughing sheepishly; he was actually serious.

    Who knows about the strange mysticws of the Spiritas Tower anyway?

    Maybe it will be like the case for the Bliss City, with the mysticws being manipted by a higher power.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was looking doubtful because he had often spent a lot of time observing the difficulties in a trial and he had discovered that the Trial Spirits always have a certain habits or fixed patterns in a trial. And he had spent plenty of time to unravel these weird patterns by visiting the low level trials multiple times even though the rewards for a low level trial is not exactly fantastic.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned to look at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, giving her a startled surprise. "Erm, I have a small request. I wonder if divine consort is able to help me?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled pleasantly, "Please do tell me. I am most willing to ede to your requests."

    Ji Yuan thought as he looked at her boobs: Maybe I would like to bang you instead?

    But he quicklyughed, "As you know, I am still recovering from my ailment and it may be more serious than I''ve thought. I wonder if you can allow my Senior Sister Chu Lixue to apany me until the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower has started?"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin giggled as she returned a pleasant smile, "This is just a small request. This shall be granted to you."

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted; it was because he was not going to let that Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong have any chance to be alone with his future consort! No one shall green him!

    2. You know, there always a twist somewhere when JY is suddenly so sharp in his perception because things are always not as simple as it looks.

 Chapter 800 Imperfect Hero Vs. The Perfect Hero.

    ?

    The vi of the Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was instantly pleased when he had bumped into the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue along the corridor.

    Her presence was so divine that even her beautiful surroundings were now looking so dull and lifeless.

    "Maiden Chu Lixue, I''ve heard that you have been in Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s tavern for the past 7 days." Jiang Guanzhong was frowning as he asked her.

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "That''s right."

    Jiang Guanzhong then said slowly, "Are you with that Ji Yuan?"

    Chu Lixue answered with an annoyed look, not because Jiang Guanzhong had asked her this question but it was because she had suddenly remembered that Ji Yuan had been such a beast of a man to her for the past 7 days.

    "Yes, I am."

    Jiang Guanzhong hummed coldly, "This Ji Yuan looked like an uncouth cultivator. You should stay away from him, as much as possible."

    Chu Lixue smiled coldly, "This is my business and none of your business. This Ji Yuan is my junior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother and he also happens to be my future lord. Moreover, I am already with him before I know you."

    Jiang Guanzhong said with a sincere look, the type ofdy-killer look that can fascinate any maidens. "Maiden Lixue, I am 10 times more talented than him. In terms of cultivation wealth and looks, I am not inferior to him. I can give you happiness if you are willing to follow me¡­"

    "I am not willing to follow you." Chu Lixue interrupted him with a cold smile. "He is the best man for me even if you are superior to him."

    Jiang Guanzhong was stunned, "Didn''t you admire my talents previously? Why are you so cold to me now? Because of that good-for-nothing Ji Yuan?"

    Chu Lixue smiled at the thought of Ji Yuan, "When I was in the streets earlier, I have heard people calling him the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. And he has killed an immortal divine lord. So he isn''t a good-for-nothing cultivator."

    Jiang Guanzhong frowned, "It is only in this ce. When the trial is over, he is back to being a low talent cultivator again. Let me ask you. In terms of cultivation like alchemy, arrays, herbalism, toxicology, spirit cultivation, body cultivation, mind cultivation, power cultivation, aura cultivation, martial arts and even sword cultivation, is he superior to me?"

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "Although he isn''t superior to you in all these aspects but at least he got an emperor-step divine sword but you don''t have one."

    Jiang Guanzhong was startled, "What? He has found an emperor-step divine sword for himself in one of the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? This is impossible, right?"

    Chu Lixue was naturally not going to tell him that Ji Yuan in fact had 2 emperor-step divine swords and that he can also disyed 4 Sword Domains and is also a sword deity.

    She just wanted to tell this Jiang Guanzhong that at least there was one aspect of Ji Yuan that was stronger than him.

    Jiang Guanzhong was suddenly smiling, "I have a powerful saint-step divine sword. It is only a grade lower than his emperor-step divine sword. With my cultivation strength, even if he has a deity-step divine sword, he still cannot hope topare with me¡­"

    Then he smiled wry to the Smiling Divine Maiden as he looked at her bosoms and slowly looked down her to her waist¡­

    He was already thinking of caressing her tits and grind her lips below.

    "You know. I have a heaven-defying secret and I will only share with you. I''ve found thest precious immortal blood of the True Devil God. After I have cultivated it, I will be able to be as powerful as the True Devil God in the future. But I can spare you 1/1000 of the blood essence of this most precious blood to help you to cultivate as an immortal. Also, your other aspects of your cultivation foundation will also be more solid than ever¡­"

    "I also know that you are a sword saintess and a sword cultivator. Therefore, you have an imperfect cultivation. In case, you do not know it yet, even if you can be an immortal, you will be a lowly immortal. But with my precious drop of the True Devil God''s blood, you won''t be bottlenecked for far too long¡­"

    "In the future, I can even stand side by side with the Great God Pangu, the Great Goddess Fantian and the Great Goddess Celestial Alice in the immortal realm. Even above them to stand by the side of the Great Beyond Goddess in the Great Beyond¡­"

    "I can even be the future ruler god of the entire 6 Godly Realms, the ruler of the entire universe¡­"

    "But of course, this won''t be free for you."

    Then he lit a wry but charming smile, "Surely, you already know what I want from you from sharing with you my cultivation urrence."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue hummed coldly, "You disgust me with your ambitions. I don''t need your help to ascend to be an immortal. Even if I am a lowly immortal in the future, this is still none of your business and concern. Also, you have underestimate me to think that I need your help. In the future, it is best that we don''t talk anymore."

    Jiang Guanzhong was stunned; he had never thought that he would be rejected and that the Smiling Divine Maiden would not want such a god given chance to be a most powerful celestial cultivator and in the future, a most powerful immortal cultivator.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Just as he was about to protest to urge her to re-consider again, Chu Lixue had walked away nonchntly.

    But just as he was about to go to her again to use another persuasive method to convince her of his goodwill, a female spiritas had suddenlye to Chu Lixue with an urgent look.

    This maiden was a titled Spirit Concubine and her name was Su Hong. (See Chapter 750).

    She had previously entrapped Xi Huangdi and tortured him to the death.

    Now she was urgently saying to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Maiden Chu Lixue, our divine consort requests for you to go back to the tavern where Great Spiritas Ji Yuan is right now so that you can remain by his side to treat his aliment anytime he needed."

    Chu Lixue looked exasperated, "This rascal Ji Yuan is too horrible. How did he even manage¡­"

    Although she looked displeased with the idea of apanying Ji Yuan but in her heart, she was delighted.

    "Why don''t he die and save me the trouble of saving him?"

    Then she had hastened her steps to return to the tavern where Ji Yuan was and there was a divine smile in her countenance.

    Between a high and almighty perfect hero such as Jiang Guanzhong and an imperfect hero like Ji Yuan, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue naturally prefers Ji Yuan; it is because with Ji Yuan, she can be herself and be at ease.

    She thought to herself: This Jiang Guanzhong must be reading too many male fantasies cultivation heroes written by male authors and he must have never read any real romantic stories written by female authors in his entire life before.

    No, he probably read too many CEO stories.

    It is because most maidens are actually more romantic than being a gold digger.

    So this Jiang Guanzhong hadpletely misjudged.

    Who cares about your evil True Devil God''s precious blood?

    She doesn''t care!

    As for Spirit Concubine Su Hong, she had spotted the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong not far away.

    So, she approached him with a beautiful smile, "Isn''t this the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong? I saw you looking at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue. You are interested in her?"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong sighed softly, "But it is a pity that she isn''t too interested in me and now she has to go and treat her junior prot¨¦g¨¦ brother again."

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong smiled, "Perhaps she has her own difficulties. You don''t understand the hearts of the maidens, do you? This is called responsibility. No matter what, as Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan''s senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister, she has to take care of him. I can tell that Maiden Chu Lixue is a kind maiden."

    Jiang Guanzhong had suddenly pped his hands, "That''s it. Why didn''t I think of this?"

    All he needs to do is to kill this Ji Yuan and then her ''responsibility'' will be released!

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong smiled enticingly, "You are such a perfect cultivator that I have long admired you. If you need any help from me, I can surely help you¡­"

    Then she winked at him, "I am really, very close to our divine consort."

    Jiang Guanzhong was suddenly smiling at her; it was because he had suddenly thought that he could make use of this female spiritas to get close to Divine Consort Dongfang Xin¡­

    He said, "I feel that I have known you for a long time and we have many things inmon to chat about. Shall we find a time now?"

    Spirit Concubine Su Hong was smiling wryly, "Sure. I am always free for you."

 Chapter 801 The Goddess Ai Tinaâ€™s True Plans

    ?

    The rebel hideout in Snowy Pavilion City.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was addressing the more than 3000 former rebels in the underground great hall of the rebel hideout. These includes even their families and there were even female spiritas in this group.

    Now these former rebels were called her people the Aethinians.

    In additional to the Aethinians here, there were more than 100 imageries presented from the 100 over city-states because today their Protectress Goddess Ai Tina is going to address everyone.

    Aethinian leader Xie Tianzun was the most delighted; it was because just a few days ago he had received a huge boost to his cultivation strength by talking the milk essence of his Protectress Goddess Ai Tina and he had been transformed from a weak schrly spirit cultivator to a strong spirit cultivator now.

    With his new profound strength, he had naturally challenged several of the strongest former rebel leaders in the hideout and had emerged victorious.

    This caused the other former rebel leaders to be envious of his newfound cultivation strength.

    So when their Protectress Goddess Ai Tina had chosen this day to bestow upon all the Aethinians her blessings and powers, they were all super excited.

    Everyone was thinking how much new cultivation powers they would be able to obtain from this blessing ceremony.

    And Xie Tianzun knows that he would be even stronger than after this blessing ceremony.

    She was smiling enthralling to everyone, "As you have all heard by now, all the 12 major city-states are now proiming the greatness of my name the Goddess Ai Tina, for I''m now back to the Spirit Divine Realm. I am the greatest immortal goddess in the Spirit Divine Realm and also the Greater Spirit Realm. I shall bring upon a glorious era to the spiritas race¡­"

    "Together we shall be a great race again and our greatness will shine in the six immortal divine realms¡­"

    "For we are all spiritas and today I shall bring glory to my chosen people the Aethinians first. Then you shall be my missionaries to bring my glory to all the city-states¡­"

    "Today, I shall grant you my immortal powers. So, reach out to my soul core now that is within my inner spiritual sea and I shall bless you as my chosen people¡­"''

    "For today, I shall open my soul sea to all of you regardless of your current cultivation realm. Those that are able to gain my greater immortal powers shall be the new heroes of this era. It doesn''t matter if your current spirit cultivation is weak, this immortal power shall make you as strong as the divine consorts¡­"

    "This is my great blessing to my chosen people the Aethinians. Come on and enter my soul sea with your spirit divine senses¡­"

    When she had said that, there was a spirit halo around her that blinded everyone.

    All the Aethinians from this great hall plus the 100 over city-states of Aethinians numbering some 30 000 quickly reached their spirit divine sense into the soul core of their Protectress Goddess Ai Tina.

    Her soul core was extremely soothing and all the Aethinians were awed by her powerful immortal cultivation of the 8th Spirit Realm.

    Everyone felt awesome, refreshing and they even feel that their spirit cultivation would soon have a breakthrough soon.

    Not everyone could reach into the soul core of an immortal goddess or anyone else; it was because it was usually closed. The only time that it would be opened would be when another cultivator forcefully makes a soul attack on another cultivator''s soul core.

    The Goddess Ai Tina waited patiently for all the Aethinians to enter her soul core to cultivate with their spirit divine sense.

    When this was done, her beautiful and godly voice began to echo to everyone. "Now cultivate as much as possible¡­"

    But all of a sudden, there was a knowing sh in her eyes as she swallowed up the spirit divine senses of all her intruders,pletely annihting them with her soul attack on them.

    In that single instant, more than 30 000 of the former rebels from more than 100 city-statesy dead as they copsed on the ground when the Goddess Ai Tina sealed off her soul sea and preventing anyone from escaping.

    She merely said quietly, "Don''t me me. me yourself for daring to enter my soul sea. You can all worship me when you are all dead. I won''t forget the contributions of my Aethinians to my cause."

    In one master stroke, she had killed every single one of the rebels and gained renown for herself.

    None of these rebels even have the cultivation strength to resist her soul attack and moreover they were in the soul sea of an immortal. Killing them were as easy as crushing an ant.

    The task that all the divine consorts failed to do, was aplished by her single-handedly.

    She would tell the divine consorts of the 12 major city-states that she had interrupted a meeting of the rebels and she had used a powerful immortal profound treasure to deliver a strong soul attack and to kill all the rebels.

    When this deed was done, she had shed to top of the city square of Snowy Pavilion City and dered with her profound voice, "The rebels are all dead now. This is the location of their hideout¡­"

    All the spiritas at the city square werepletely astonished by this news; they were all filled with disbeliefs, awes, loud exmations, cheers, excitements and wondrous.

    "All hail our Goddess Ai Tina! All hail our Goddess Ai Tina! All hail our Goddess Ai Tina!"

    This news would quickly spread throughout Snowy Pavilion City, throughout the other 11 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and even in other regions of the Spirit Divine Realm.

    The decadent rebels that continued to fight the divine consorts were finally all extinguished after so many thousands of years!

    The Goddess Ai Tina has done the impossible!<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    These rebels had all died to cement the virtuous goddess image of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina in the hearts of the present Spiritas Race.

    Their Protectress Goddess did not protect them at all.

    -

    -

    -

    The Goddess Ai Tina did not stay in the city square for too long.

    Instead, she was speeding toward the city-state of Pandora.

    As she was speeding hastily with all her profound spirit animus, she was easily detected by the city-state''s divine consorts who hastily tried to greet hering but it was already toote; it was because the Goddess Ai Tina had already left.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had only stayed briefly in a shrine that was dedicated to her; to bring a bouquet of carnations to her long dead daughter that she had with the legendary great spiritas hero Achilles.

    Her daughter was actually birth in secret and no one else knows of her dark secret with Achilles because he had forbidden her to tell anyone.

    This city-state was where her daughter had been birthed.

    It was only many yearster she had finally learnt of her daughter''s death and she was deeply grieved for she had never fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.

    She found a cave in the nearby mountains and she cried in there, to grief for her dead daughter.

    She never got the chance to take care of her dead daughter in the past because she had to wage wars against the numerous divine lords.

    One day, a divine lord struck the city-state of Pandora devastating it and killing everyone in the city.

    And her daughter never knows that till the day of her death that her mother consort was the First Divine Consort of the spiritas resistance army.

    Before Ai Tina had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, she continued toy down flowers every year in tearful memories of her dead daughter.

    She did not know how long she had been weeping in this cave but when she sobered up, it was already daybreak.

    It was now time for her to do another 2 things.

    Firstly, she has to kill Ji Yuan.

    It was because the 6 Supreme Divine Gods had put a restriction in her soul core; she had to avenge for Kong Rong. If she did not use the Soul-Attack Spirit Talisman on the killer of Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong or to kill him when she returns to the Greater Divine Realm, then this restriction would kill her instantly.

    It was either Ji Yuan or herself that would eventually die.

    Naturally it would be Ji Yuan.

    Secondly, Xu Yifei must also die.

    While her 6 masters had told her to check on Xu Yifei and to find out why she did not ascend, they had not put a severe restriction in her soul core for this.

    It was because her 6 masters felt that Xu Yifei was unlikely to regain her cultivation strength to be a divine consort again and she may be already dead after 500 years.

    So, when Ai Tina had found out that Xu Yifei is not only alive but she has also regained her great divine consort cultivation realm, she was determined to kill her.

    It is because if Xu Yifei ascends to the Greater Spirit Realm, then her 6 masters would have gained a massive amount of cultivation from turning her into a living furnace and even have a breakthrough.

    She wants to prevent this from happening.

    Therefore, Xu Yifei must die.

    She cannot have Xu Yifei not joining the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower either because there would be 6 divine consorts that would be ascending and they would testify that Xu Yifei had indeed regained her great divine consort cultivation realm.

    That was why she had nned to kill both Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei while they were alone with her in the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.

 Chapter 802 Only JY Is Not Impressed With Ai Tina

    ?

    Snowy Pavilion City.

    In the tavern of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei when the Goddess Ai Tina had just left.

    They had a short break before resuming their chats together.

    It was because Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had also just sent word to fetch the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue to the tavern.

    And after that, Ji Yuan would enter a short cultivation retreat with his senior sister to try to regain his profound strength.

    Ji Yuan now had 3 days to prepare before the start of the legendary Secret Oracle Gate to seek the ''Great Oracle of the Delphi''.

    After the break, he asked Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "Erm, what is our objection in going there?"

    He was still a little perplexed.

    He was naturally referring to the Great Oracle of the Delphi.

    The other 4 divine consorts who were still presented in the meeting room hastily told him at the same time. Their answers varies but basically it was all the same.

    "A question will be answered by the Great Oracle of Delphi from you¡­"

    "Any question can be asked and it shall be answered¡­"

    "But only 1 question is allowed¡­"

    "Once this 1 question is answered, the Oracle of Delphi will not answer anymore questions and the legendary Secret Oracle Gate will disappear¡­"

    "Therefore, you got to make this question counts¡­"

    "Even the mysteries of the universe will be answered¡­"

    "You can even change your cultivation fate with this question¡­"

    "You can ask the Great Oracle of Delphi if you can be an immortal and how you can aplish this destiny¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "A question?! The Goddess Ai Tina will have a need to know an answer?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni smiled, "I am sure that Master Ji Yuan knows that divination doesn''t work on the immortals because the immortals are carriers of their own destiny. But even if you are an immortal, the Great Oracle of Delphi is able to answer any questions for you. And you can even change your destiny with a question for the Great Oracle of Delphi."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly; he actually did not know that divination usually won''t work for the immortals. No one tells him that. But he decided to keep a straight face to maintain his ''hero'' image.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin offered a suggestion, "Maybe the Greater Spirit Realm is too vast and she needs to find thest stronghold of the depraved immortal divine lords."

    Ji Yuan replied awkwardly, "Well, it is only 1 question. I''ve thought that I may have a chance to ask a question too."

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Erughed teasingly as she looked shyly at him, "Yuan Beluga, so what question will you ask the Great Oracle of Delphi if you are given the chance to ask?"

    Ji Yuanughed jokingly, "Well, I am going to ask the Great Oracle of Delphi how to take such a lovely and cute maiden like yourself back to my Celestial Realm. Hahaha¡­"

    When Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had heard Ji Yuan, she was flushing all of a sudden and so did the other 4 divine consorts¡­

    This was indeed a good question that they had not thought of.

    And this was also a question that could resolve the doubts in their hearts as well; is it even possible for them to be with Ji Yuan in the first ce?

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was flushing hotly than the others as she mustered the courage to say coyly, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is only interested to bring Jie''Er with you. How about me?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "I especially like you too when you are flushing. Your flushes are the most beautiful flushes that I have ever seen. Hahaha¡­"

    This caused Divine Consort Sun Dingjun to flush even redder, "I¡­am flushing now¡­"

    Divine Consorts Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin are more reserved than Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er as they are superior divine consorts that have more worldly experiences with people. So, they could not bring themselves to look as the two of them.

    However, for Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, although she had only merely smiled at Ji Yuan''s question but her enticing eyes were looking at Ji Yuan. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    In her heart, she had actually wished that she was the one that Ji Yuan would bring to the Celestial Realm with him, instead of Ding Jie''Er.

    All of a sudden Maiden Flower Ju had entered the meeting room and said respectfully to everyone, "The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue is back now."

    There was a look of delight in Ji Yuan''s eyes because he was not going to let her off for the next 3 days.

    Cultivation for 3 days?

    No way!

    Not as important as his senior sister!

    He was delighted too because he had just put his senior sister beyond the reach of the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong.

    But he still got something to do first before he entered his 3 days cultivation retreat.

    But before he could mention about his request, Maiden Flower Ju was now saying with great delight to all 5 of the divine consorts, "The entire city is now in a joyous mood. You won''t believe it but the Goddess Ai Tina has just wiped out all the rebels in our city-state and also from the other city-states as well!"

    When she had said that, all 5 of the divine consorts were in great shock.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun who had been fighting against the rebels for a long time and she had even tried to dissuade the Goddess Ai Tina waspletely stunned, "Really¡­ really¡­"

    "I don''t believe it but I am also believing it because she is the Goddess Ai Tina¡­" Divine Consort Tang Manni was gasping with great shock.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er covered her mouth because she was gasping too loudly.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and Divine Consort Dongfang Xin were also shaken and they were looking shocked as well.

    It was because even these two powerful divine consorts could not aplish what the Goddess Ai Tina was able to do and in such a short time.

    "Is it true?" Divine Consort Dongfang Xin asked for verifications.

    Maiden Flower Ju nodded firmly, "We already have firsthand ounts. All the rebels are now dead, including the old fox Elder Xie Tianzun of the rebel resistance. Also, we have also found 100 known faces of the rebel leaders in Snowy Pavilion City. We still don''t know why they are all here in our city-state but they are all killed by the soul attack of our Goddess Ai Tina now."

    Ji Yuan stammered with disbelief, "Soul attack? What is it? All of them are dead?"

    He was actually thinking too: No one escapes this time? Is it even possible in the first ce? How did she do it?

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was beaming, "I am really so awestruck by our Goddess Ai Tina now. To think that the 5 of us are so lucky to be in her personal audience¡­"

    Then she giggled as she looked at Ji Yuan, "And Yuan Beluga is also her personal guard of honor as well."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was smiling too, "This is the start of a new golden age for our spiritas race."

    "That''s right." Divine Consort Dongfang Xin gave Tang Manni a delightful look and smile.

    "We have finally defeated all the depraved rebels now and didn''t our Goddess Ai Tina say that she is also winning the holy immortal war against the remaining depraved immortal divine lords such as Kong Rong?"

    Ji Yuan disyed a weak smile when he saw that all 5 of the divine consorts, including Xiang Li and Anyang were all so impressed by this Goddess Ai Tina.

    He was like one man versus 7 maidens here.

    The only maiden that he could fully trust now with his thoughts was perhaps his senior sister the Smiling Divine Maiden¡­

    But he quickly interrupted with a forceful smile, "Erm, I have something to discuss with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei in private first. I hope that all of you don''t mind about this. It is actually about our trip in 3 days'' time."

    All 5 divine consorts: ???

 Chapter 803 Trust Me Instead Of The Goddess Ai Tina!

    ?

    Ji Yuan was finally alone with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei now.

    The reason why he had requested to talk privately with her was because he had something really important to say to her alone.

    "Master Ji Yuan, you want to talk to me about something?" Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei curiously asked him.

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly before he decided to go straight to the point, "I hope your great divine consort will trust me on something. And I hope that you won''t think that I am a bad person after I have said it out."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was suddenly flushing, "Of course¡­ I do trust you¡­ Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself after he saw her expression: I am sure what I am trying to say, isn''t what you are thinking now¡­

    He took another deep breath before he had decided to go all out, "I don''t think your Goddess Ai Tina at all but I can''t figure out what is wrong yet. She is trying to kill the two of us and we need to prepare ourselves for a confrontation with her in 3 days'' time."

    When he had said this, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was stunned.

    She said with trembling lips, "She is really our Goddess Ai Tina. There is no doubt about this at all¡­ but why should she want to kill the both of us? Didn''t she just get rid of the rebels for all of us?"

    She wanted to believe in Master Ji Yuan but all of a sudden, she really could not find the will to believe in him¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "It is just my guts feeling. I can feel her killing instincts at the two of us. And moreover, she is too perfect. A little too perfect for my liking."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "When a person is too perfect, it is actually a nned design in the first ce. I just have misgivings about this Spiritas Tower as well."

    Xiang Li was protesting weakly in his soul sea: Big Brother, you are too suspicious of the Ai Tina! She really has nice boobs, you know¡­

    Fairy Anyang was also saying: I totally agreed with Xiang Li on this¡­

    But Ji Yuan had already ignored his two spirit fairies because they were not on his side!

    Ji Yuan slowly looked into her enticing eyes as he tried his best to bring out all his manly charms, "Your great divine consort, do you believe me? I can bet with you that Ai Tina will try to kill us in 3 days'' time!"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei still had a look of hesitant and she was struggling with her inner demons; it is because she has trusted both Master Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina but now, she is given an option to choose from the two of them, she is literally torn apart in her heart.

    Ji Yuan saw her look of hesitant and he said solemnly, "Trust me. If she did not try to kill us while we are inside the Secret Oracle Gate then I shall swear I''ll go eat shit and be a shit of a man!"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was quite startled that Ji Yuan had suddenly be so emotional, "I do believe in Master Ji Yuan but¡­"

    But all of a sudden, she remembered what her great mistress had told her that Ji Yuan was also a good friend hers.

    A good friend of the Great Beyond Goddess, even if he is the True Devil God won''t be a bad person, right?

    So, she answered with more conviction this time, "I totally believe in you, Master Ji Yuan. You don''t have to make such a vicious oath."

    Ji Yuan was finally relieved to hear that as he thought: Whew. My manly charms actually work on her¡­

    He quickly said to her with a look of relief, "Thank you for believing in me. I won''t lose your trust. Alright then, if I am proven wrong in 3 days'' time, then in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess, I shall¡­ I shall¡­"

    He was suddenly at a loss of words¡­

    "Then you shall take me as your consort?" Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled.

    Ji Yuan said without thinking, "Alright, then in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess, I shall take you as my consort¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had realized what he was saying: What did I just say just now? He had never thought that she would suddenly said that¡­

    But he had quickly dismissed it because he was very sure that he was 100% right.

    He took a look of awkwardness at the flustered Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei before he quicky said out his ns.

    "Having said that, we must be on our guards against the Goddess Ai Tina in 3 days'' time. If we were to survive, then we must work hand in hand together."

    Actually, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei still did not believe the Goddess Ai Tina would try to kill them but she was being forced by Ji Yuan to make a decision on this.

    Ji Yuan continued, "She will surely try to separate us so it will be more convenient to kill us in this way¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei asked curiously, "She is an immortal goddess. She doesn''t need to separate us if she really wants to kill us."

    Ji Yuan was struck for words before he answered, "Erm¡­ just in case, one of us decides to sacrifice to let the other to run away. I''ll surely use my life to safeguard your life."

    This caused the countenances of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to flush as she lowered her head, "I got it now¡­"

    Does he mean that I am very important to him?

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly. "Haha¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan had returned to his personal room, he was once again with the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue once again.

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely at him, "Hmph! You have dared to summon your senior sister using the name of my Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, knowing very well that I can''t reject your request because I am trying to gain her trust points. You are just too cunning!"

    Ji Yuan however ignored her remarks and he hugged her by her shoulders to say solemnly, "Senior sister, I am in trouble with the Goddess Ai Tina. And I may die in 3 days'' time."

    Chu Lixue was startled as she asked with disbelief, "You are not joking, right?

    "Listen to me first." Ji Yuan told her solemnly.

    Ji Yuan then told her about his uing trip to see the Great Oracle of the Delphi with the Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    And he told her that he had sensed killing intents from the Goddess Ai Tina as well.

    Finally, he asked her what she thought about this.

    Chu Lixue said quietly, "No matter if your instinct is right or not, you mustn''t let down your guard against her when you are with her. Betrayals only happen when you trust someone too much¡­"

    Ji Yuan was d that his senior sister actually did not doubt him and he wanted to give her another hug¡­

    "Therefore, you should try to regain your profound strength and vitality as much as possible during these 3 days. And gained back the vitality that you have lost for the past 7 days. That means, no funny business with me." Chu Lixue was smiling divinely as she warned him.

    Ji Yuan immediatelyughed weakly with a sheepish look, "Maybe we can do it for 1 more day and then I use the remaining day to recover? I can recover quite fast, you know."

    Chu Lixue chuckled, "And then it will be 1 more day and 1 more day again, right? That what you have been telling me every day for the past 7 days. Aren''t you shameless? Are you going for me for 10 days straight instead?"

    JI Yuan had already put his hands around her waist to lift Chu Lixue off the ground to carry her to the bed, "Just 1 more day, my senior sister¡­"

    Chu Lixue was looking coquettishly as she grabbed her hands around Ji Yuan''s neck as she whispered softly, "Do you think that you are right? What can I do to help you? I don''t want you to die¡­"

    Ji Yuan put her down the bed with great gentleness and grinned, "Senior sister, forget about the other matters. They are all trivialpared to this serious matter that we are about to do¡­"

    Then he started to try to pull off her straps from her body.

    To his surprise, there was no profound force that bound it like thest time too.

    Heughed jovially, "My senior sister, you may look reluctant but your body is dishonest too¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, can you shut up please?" Chu Lixue smiled with great coyness.

    "Why do you need to talk so much when you have already be my lord?"

    Ji Yuanughed with a straight face as he started to admire her white jaded naked figure in front of him, "I am just warming us up¡­"

 Chapter 804 3 Maidens Plans To Castrate Ji Yuan

    ?

    In the city-state of Pandora.

    There were 3 unhappy maidens.

    And they were Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

    The three of them had met in this city and they had be champions of the Divine Consort Atnta in this city-state.

    This Divine Consort Atnta detested men and she had very own her elite female champion legion that she called the Amazon Legion.

    Therefore, there were no male champions or even male followers that were with this Divine Consort Atnta since she did not have any preferences for the men.

    The reason for their unhappiness were that they had heard that Ji Yuan had be the Great Spiritas Hero of Snowy Pavilion City.

    Not just the Great Spiritas Hero of the Snowy Pavilion City but even the Goddess Ai Tina had acknowledged that Ji Yuan was also the Great Spiritas Hero of the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    Therefore Ji Yuan was now known as the Great Spiritas Hero of the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and in the streets, rumors of his beautiful looks be the hot topics in all the city-states.

    Shui Xisi shook her fists, "This Ji Yuan must have seduced all 5 of the divine consorts in Snowy Pavilion City and that is why he got a 100% vote in their senate!"

    "I''m totally agreed with you on this," the Lovely Empress hummed coldly.

    "But I still can''t believe that he can aplish all these in less than 20 days. I still can''t believe how he manages to do this."

    Zhi Jiugong said, "If it is Ji Yuan then this is possible because¡­"

    She suddenly had a little flush before saying, "Due to his beautiful looks and talents."

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "Talents?! You mean his talents in poetry and music? That are just instruments for him to woo the maidens. You can''t be serious¡­ wait a minute¡­ he must have used these two instruments to woo the 5 divine consorts in Snowy Pavilion City!"

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu nodded, "Men are all alike. They just think with their lower bodies in here. This trial is so unfair to the maidens that are taking the trial here. While we are struggling with our Trust Points with this Divine Consort Atnta, Ji Yuan must have a 100 Trust Points with all 5 of the divine consorts. You can really tell from the result of his senate votes in how he has obtained his Great Spiritas Hero title."

    "He is going to show off his trial rewards to us again." Shui Xisi frowned. "Or either that, he is going to hide his secret from us to surprise uster. Ji Yuan is too scum of a man!"

    She was still sour that Ji Yuan did not tell anyone of them about his reward from thest trial and he kept saying he got nothing which was impossible.

    Now this was impossible since the trial always give something if the cultivator did not quit the trial halfway.

    All of a sudden, they had received an emergency update from a voice array in this room which was rarely used except in times of emergencies.

    "Our Goddess Ai Tina has just eradicated all the rebels in Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad!"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is also the personal guard of honor for our Goddess Ai Tina!"

    Shui Xisi had turned pale, "Did you all just hear that? Ji Yuan is now the personal guard of honor for the Goddess Ai Tina?!"

    The Lovely Empress looked a little infuriated, "He must have screwed the Goddess Ai Tina as well, just like he has screwed our mistress too."

    Shui Xisi reminded everyone, "He has even banged the Great Beyond Goddess Dream Mist as well."

    Zhi Jiugong was looking a little awkward because she had an affair with Ji Yuan back when they were in the Demonic Divine Realm. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    At that time, they had felt lost and lonely, not knowing if they were able to survive the trial in there and one thing led to the another.

    She was suddenlymenting softly, "I wonder what our Sister Chu Lixue thinks of this trial here? While we have found each other, she must be so lonely on her own. She must have heard of Ji Yuan by now. Everyone knows who is the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan now."

    The Lovely Empress answered coldly, "Knowing my Sister Chu Lixue, she must really be hopping mad that her future lord is such a lecherous rascal. This is a trial. I can''t believe that Ji Yuan is so willing to y with the hearts of a maiden just toplete the trial here. I wish that I can be there tofort her."

    Shui Xisi nodded angrily, "I bet your Sister Chu Lixue will break off with him for sure this time round. Ling Feiyue is also here to take her trial. If I were the two of them, I would surely break off with Ji Yuan immediately."

    The Lovely Empress took a curious look at her, "You will?"

    Shui Xisi suddenly had a sheepish look before she sighed softly, "It is already toote for me. I have already lost my chastity to him. How about you?"

    The Lovely Empress answered weakly, "I still have my chastity¡­"

    But I don''t want to break off with him¡­

    So, she quickly asked her Sister Zhi Jiugong, "Will you break off with him now that you know that he is such a scum of a man?"

    Zhi Jiugong answered weakly, "It is already toote for me as well. I''ve already lost my chastity to him."

    Shui Xisi was so angry that she kicked a chair that was near her away, crashing it onto the walls. "This Ji Yuan is too scum! Sisters, we need to castrate him for a hundred years to teach him a lesson. What do you think?"

    The Lovely Empress muttered weakly, "Do we really have to do this?"

    She had not tasted the forbidden fruit yet and she wants to castrate him already?

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "Even if my Sister Feifei (Jiajia) is here today, I''d still castrate him. What Great Spiritas Hero? He is just a Great Celestial Scum! This only happens because Ling Feiyue is just too soft on him and that is why he can still steal peaches while with her. We need to help Sister Ling Feiyue by being hard on this scum of a man. Do you all agree with me?"

    The Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong exchanged a miserable look before they all pretended to agree with Shui Xisi.

    But actually all 3 of them were thinking to let the other do the deed first.

    For the past 3 days, these 3 maidens had actually grown much closer.

    It was especially so when Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress had be quite close during theirst trial together when they had fought together and survived the guardians of the Goddess Star Pce.

    That was the reason why the Lovely Empress was willing to let Shui Xisi to take the lead in this matter.

    Although Zhi Jiugong was more senior to the Lovely Empress but she was not as domineering as her two sisters Lu Jiangsu the Lovely Empress and Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    But after spending more time with Shui Xisi, she hase to admire her guts. And moreover, Shui Xisi is not weaker than her and she is a peaked great saintess as well.

 Chapter 805 A New Danger Approaches

    ?

    Outside the trial portal of this SS Spirit Trial, somewhere near it.

    A cultivator had been thrown onto the hard ground and he was gasping for breath but there was a relief in his golden eyes.

    It was because he had used his golden talisman to save his own life in order to escape from the trial that was in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    There was a bitterness in his golden eyes because he was not being attacked by a divine consort or her female followers but it was actually an old golden celestial that was the one that had secretly attacked him.

    To that old golden celestial, he was just a young and handsome so he was apetitor in winning the trust of the divine consort that they were serving.

    He wanted to return to this paradise again but he was only given one chance and he had no more golden talisman anymore.

    He could now only look for other trials or go back to the beginning of the final trial.

    But he was too far from the beginning and his only safe option was to look for a cave and stay there until the trial was finally over.

    He had remembered that he had almost been killed 3 times by the numerous powerful deste monsters that patrolled the final trial. But each time, he was lucky that there were always some foolish courageous celestials that decided to fight the powerful deste monsters instead of fleeing like he did.

    He was wounded now but it was not that serious as he staggered to find a hiding ce to recuperate first. Although he was wounded but his profound strength had been regained by the use of the golden talisman and he could quickly recover from his wounds in just a matter of days when he was able to cultivate.

    Luckily for him, when a cultivator has failed a trial inside a trial portal by using the golden talisman, they will not be sent to the entrance of the portal where they may be ambushed by the other celestial cultivators who may lie there in wait for the wounded and the unlucky cultivators.

    Instead, they would be sent to a random location that was miles away from the trial portal.

    All of a sudden two extraordinary beautiful maidens, one with a white veil over her silver hair and another with an upper golden mask but with rosy cherry lips had suddenly appeared in front of him.

    He was startled for he did not know if they were friends or foes.

    But he had naturally recognized them because he had recognized them to be with the same group as that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    These two maidens were indeed the veiled Bai Qianfeng and the masked Yun Chi.

    Yun Chi was smiling, "Unfortunately for you, you have triggered one of our numerous defensive arrays when you havended here and your presence alerts us to you."

    This cultivator immediately raised his divine sword with a loud yell as he charged to attack them, "Hehe, you have no idea how strong I am even if I looked wounded. My profound strength has already been recovered by the use of the trial''s golden talisman and I am a middle saint¡­"

    But before he could charge at them, Bai Qianfeng had suddenly shed to him and had mmed him down onto the ground with her fingers on his back.

    This cultivator was stunned as he tried to get up, "Peaked great saintess?! No good. I must flee¡­"

    But before he could get up, Bai Qianfeng had used her leg to crush onto his back and there was a loud profound explosion around him that seemingly cracked his back.

    This cultivator simply could not believe that a peaked great saintess could actually cause damage to his golden body with a kick. It is because he himself is a power cultivator and is also a middle saint.

    Except against a more powerful cultivator, his profound aura would protect him from most crucial damage and most kicks would not be able to hurt him. Like defense cultivators, power cultivators are mostly impervious to most normal blows and he did not sense that this maiden was using any powerful profound art.

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling to the cultivator, "Are you thinking that you can actually run away from us?"

    This cultivator hummed coldly, "You can kill me but you cannot humiliate me. By the Great God Pangu, I will be a hero again in 18 years'' time!"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "You can forget about being a hero in 18 years'' time because we didn''t say we want to kill you or to humiliate you."

    This cultivator looked a little surprise, "You are not?"

    Yun Chi added with another wry smile, "Of course not unless you dare to lie to us. We are just finishing for some information and you''re the third cultivator to have fallen into our hands. So, we want to know if your information is the same as the others. Then we will let you go. Simple as that."

    This was a lie of course; this cultivator was actually the first one that they had captured and he was petty unlucky since they could not setup so many defensive arrays for miles around this vicinity.

    Bai Qianfeng gave him another kick, "Do you understand or not?"

    This cultivator quickly said, "As long as you are willing to give me a chance to live, I''d be willing to tell you what I have known."

    Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi both nodded slowly before they dragged him up.

    This cultivator was suddenly startled when he saw that they were actually ''flying'' with their profound animus.

    He was suddenly panicking because it was obvious to him that either they were extreme spirit cultivators or they were immortal cultivators.

    Their seventh realm cultivation realm profound auras were simply too strong than most peaked seventh realm sacred saints that he had ever seen.

    Soon he was dropped ceremonially in front of several celestial cultivators and they were Mo Bei, Qin Shuang, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and the White Sword Monarch.

    Yun Chi said to the cultivator coldly, "Now tell us what you know about the trial inside. Not a word of falsehood or you know the consequences."

    When Yun Chi had threatened him, this cultivator could feel that his entire body was shaking nonstop and he did not know why.

    As he knows that there were 2 other cultivators that were in front of him that had already provided the information of the trial to them, he dared not lie to them.

    So, he started to tell them what he knows about this trial which was the Spirit Divine Realm and all that he knows.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    It had nearly been 20 days inside the trial or 2 days had passed. In another 5 days or 50 days inside, this trial would have ended.

    This cultivator began to recount what he knows inside.

    And of course, he also mentioned that Ji Yuan had be a Great Spiritas Hero while he was there and he was also a personal guard of honor for the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Now this cultivator knows that Ji Yuan was in their group so he panicky added, "I have no feud with Hero Ji Yuan. In fact, I am quite sympathetic when that Xi Huangdi had challenged him that day¡­"

    But Yun Chi quickly dismissed him, "Enough of your buttering. You may go now."

    And this cultivator began to flee as quickly as possible before this group of cultivators decided to change their minds.

    Yun Chi asked them quietly, "What do you think of this trial?"

    She had suddenly noticed that the faces of Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Qin Shuang, Mo Bei and even the White Sword Monarch were looking flustered now.

    Yang Mi said with a trembling voice, "These spiritas maidens are wearing so revealing inside the trial. How is it possible for Ji Yuan not to be moved by them?"

    The White Sword Monarch was shaking his fists, "What a decadent race! And my daughter Chu Lixue is inside this trial! I must go in there to save her!"

    Little Princess on the other hand had merely smiled, "Ji Yuan must be enjoying himself in there. And he has even be a personal guard of this Goddess Ai Tina. Interesting."

    Feng Minyue was also saying nonchntly, "We never really know what is happening inside. But this trial looks interesting especially the dressing of the maidens there."

    Bai Qianfeng sighed softly, "You know. Ji Yuan has probably banged that Goddess Ai Tina already and the 5 divine consorts. For someone that has dared to bang even the Great Beyond Goddess Dream Mist, I truly believe that he is capable of doing these."

    The White Sword Monarch had suddenly said, "Damn. No wonder that Xiao Muhan didn''t show up yet. He and Ji Yuan are just enjoying themselves in that ce. I must go there as well!"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "You are going there? What for? They are taking their trials in there. Didn''t you hear what this cultivator has to say? You have to gain 100 Trust Points from a divine consort there. Not traveling from ces to ces. From what I have heard, this trial actually covers a big area. You may know the city-state that Ji Yuan is but what if the ce that you are at is 2 months away? Even if you can find a flying mount but do you really know the way?"

    The White Sword Monarch answered, "Well, I don''t care! Ji Yuan is dead for sure this time! That little rascal!"

    "Let me go inside the trial to teach this rascal Ji Yuan a lesson too." Mo Bei patted his chest with a righteous shout.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Whether the two of you are thinking of teaching Ji Yuan a lesson or going in there to have some fun, I don''t care¡­"

    When she had said, both Mo Bei and the White Sword Monarch were both looking a little awkward as they said together, "Naturally to teach Ji Yuan a lesson, of course."

    Yun Chi pointed at Mo Bei and Qin Shuang before continuing, "However I know that the Spirit Race or the Spiritas, have an easy method of removing any forms of ve seals and this included Maiden Qin Shuang''s ve seal. It is far easier to go inside to remove the ve seal than to spend 1 billion high grade spirit stones to try to remove Maiden Qin Shuang''s ve seal inside the Dream Trial."

    Mo Bei and Qin Shuang were immediately delighted when they had heard of this news.

    "Then we shall go inside the trial now." Mo Bei took Qin Shuang by her hands as he said tenderly.

    Qin Shuang nodded slowly and her golden eyes were beaming with delight.

    All of a sudden Yun Chi was looking in the horizon and she was saying slowly, "Maybe it is a better idea for all of you to go inside this trial while Qianfeng and I wait here in this ce."

    Feng Minyue immediately noticed something was amiss when she saw that Yun Chi had a restless look in her golden eyes, "Why is that? Maiden Yun Chi, you don''t look too alright. May I know why?"

    Yun Chi smiled bitterly, "I shouldn''t have released my killing intents earlier. All I can say is someone truly powerful ising our way now. And she is not easy to deal with."

    Everyone was startled as they asked, "Who is she?"

    Yun Chi answered slowly, "Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily. She is like the Great Demon God''s right hand. I don''t know why she is here and why she isn''t at the Great Deste Divine Pce. Don''t ever think of fighting her. None of you have a chance against her, trust me."

    The White Sword Monarchughed jovially, "I have 5 golden talismans to regain my profound strength. Do I need to be afraid of a mere maiden? Also, when I have disyed my earthshaking Sword Domain, she would be done for! Hohoho!"

    Yun Chi smiled bitterly, "This Number 1 is rumored to be an immortal sword deity. A mere celestial half-step sword immortal is nothing in her eyes. Also, do you believe that she can chase you down and kill you even if you have 10 golden talismans?"

    The White Sword Monarch was truly stunned, "An immortal sword deity¡­ in this ce?!"

    Bai Qianfeng was also startled, "I can''t even sense her from afar. Yun Chi, you''re the Death God Mingwang, right? Surely you can deal with her right? She didn''t know your identity, right? So maybe you can fool her with your Death God Mingwang identity."

    Yun Chi said slowly, "In my current state, I have no confidence of winning her. Also, she may have already been to Bliss City and saw that I have dismembered most of the immortal arrays."

    Everyone was gasping softly¡­

    Yun Chi pondered for awhile before she said nonchntly, "Or maybe we can let the trial to take care of her. The trial is never friendly to immortal cultivators. So maybe this is our chance to kill her in the Spirit Trial. In short, we have to lure her inside."

 Chapter 806 Yun Chi Vs. Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao

    ?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was flying aimlessly through the skies of the final trial of the level 6 Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when she had detected a sniff of a strong killing intent even though it may be hundreds of miles away.

    This killing intent seemed too familiar and it seemed to be the same as the feeling of the Death God Mingwang.

    "He is in that direction? Interesting."

    Even though she was also looking for Ji Yuan for a fight but she was also looking for the Death God Mingwang to demand answers for what had happened to the Wondend of the Ecstasy Ind that the Great Demon God had created?

    Or even a possible duel with the Death God Mingwang.

    So, she decided to fly in that direction.

    It still took her several hours because she was limiting her profound strength to the 7th cultivation realm to prevent the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth from knowing her existence and also because she was still in a stealth mode and had concealed her profound aura.

    If she had disyed her profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm then it would be quite impossible to hide her strong profound aura.

    But very soon, she had reached the vicinity where she had sensed the killing intent and there was a trial portal that was already opened.

    Her divine sense quickly told her that there was just a celestial maiden nearby.

    Out of curiosity over this trial, she touched the ck stele with her divine sense and saw that this was actually a SS Spirit Trial.

    She began to frown, "An SS Trial? This must be a most difficult trial. The rating for the final trial is only a S Ranking."

    The ck stele indicated that this Spirit Trial wouldst for 7 days outside and 70 days inside. And there was still slightly 50 days to go.

    She quickly turned her attention to where this celestial maiden was but she was suddenly also wary of her surroundings; it was because she had sensed several defensive immortal arrays that were nearby.

    A normal cultivator would not be able to setup such aplicated andrge array that did nothing but to alert the owner to any possible intrusions. Moreover, there were several of these immortal arrays as well.

    Therefore, the owner of these defensive arrays must be nearby.

    So, she quietly walked in the direction of this celestial maiden and soon she saw that she was humming a soft tune while gently caressing her belly in front of a small river that was concealed by the tall mountains.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she walked noisily to this celestial maiden to alert her that she wasing; she soon saw the face of this this celestial maiden. She was very beautiful and had a most alluring peerless look.

    She smiled to ask, "I wonder why maiden is alone here and is not taking your trial inside the trial portal?"

    This celestial maiden quickly turned around to smile at her, "s, it is a fellow cultivator. This trial is a SS trial and I am not confident that I can ovee this trial. As you know, no deste monsters will approach the vicinity around a trial so I feel much safer around here. I guess that I will wait for the final trial to end instead, since it is ending pretty soon."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "That will be 2 weekster."

    This celestial maiden smiled pleasantly, "What is your name? You can call me Yun Chi. I hope that you are a friendly cultivator."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "Hmm, you can call me Xiaoxiao. So Maiden Yun Chi, did you see anyone around heretely?"

    Yun Chi pondered for a while, "I think I saw a ck cloak masked man that is around here some hours ago and he seems to be heading to the final trial."

    Ding Xiaoxiao began to ponder: That should be the Death God Mingwang. So, he is inside the SS Trial?

    She returned a sweet smile, "Well thank you so much. You are so lucky to have meet a friendly cultivator such as myself."

    With that, she had begun to walk away.

    But after walking away for several dozen steps, she had suddenly paused in her tracks and looked back; the celestial maiden that was called Yun Chi was still humming a soft tune in a nonchnt way.

    She tapped her foot a few times to think when suddenly she said aloud, "How do you know that I am a friendly cultivator or a bad cultivator? Maybe I am a bad cultivator that wants to loot a fellow cultivator?"

    Yun Chi replied without turning her head around, "You don''t look like a bad cultivator, isn''t this reason enough?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly said, "Hmm, either you got the ability to sense my killing intention from afar or you may know that I won''t attack someone from the back. That is why you are purposely sitting in such a manner that your back is facing me."

    Yun Chi continued to smile pleasantly, "I am afraid that Maiden Xiaoxiao thinks too much. I am long here before you have shown up."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ding Xiaoxiao swept her divine sense to the vicinity; indeed, the profound signature of this Yun Chi seemed to be in this vicinity for the past several hours.

    Maybe she is thinking a little too much?

    But her sixth sense still got a lingering feeling of doubt in her heart.

    So, she asked, "I wonder if you know of a cultivator named Ji Yuan in your travels?"

    Yun Chi answered nonchntly, "Ji¡­ Yuan? Never heard of him before."

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly said coldly, "You are lying."

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    How she knows? Is she testing me?

    She forced out a smile, "I am actually not."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "You answer too fast as though you do know him. And you didn''t even bother to ask me what his characteristics are."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I am sorry if I didn''t ask about his characteristics. It is just that I am not interested in trying to know this Ji Yuan at all. Is this even a crime to remain as neutral as possible? I just don''t want to meddle in the troublesome affairs of the others. Is he a friend of yours? Maybe he is inside this trial portal now? Do you want to take a look inside?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao returned a wryly smile as well, "He isn''t exactly a friend. Usually, I don''t have the time to explore a trial but I am suddenly intrigued by this Ji Yuan. You see, I''ve just been to a trial location called the Great Valha Hall and I saw his name there as number 1 in the Great Hall of Fame and he had a score of 4 212 224 Points."

    She then added with another wry smile, "That is all the more reason why I want to duel with him."

    Then she continued to say, "I won''t fight you this time because you are pregnant, Death God Mingwang. Should I call you by this name instead? I''ve never suspected that you will actually be a maiden and you will be pregnant. This is most surprising¡­"

    Her sharp divine sense had already detected two heart beatsing from this Yun Chi even before she had arrived in this vicinity.

    "It is impossible for the Death God not to know Ji Yuan, am I right? Since you are also supposed to kill him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and your immortal profound arrays are everywhere in this ce."

    "Therefore, this Ji Yuan must be inside this trial portal. That is good enough for me to know already."

    Yun Chi said quietly, "I know that I can''t hide my identity from you. But do you want to know why I am showing you my true appearance?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was suddenlyughing softly, "Because it will be too funny for a pregnant Death God Mingwang to be talking to me in the first ce."

    Yun Chi chuckled too, "Precisely. And good luck in finding Ji Yuan inside the trial."

    If she could not fool this Ding Xiaoxiao then she had a backup n already.

    She had already instructed the rest of her group to quickly search for Ji Yuan and to ask him to use his golden talisman to quickly exit the trial when he encounters Ding Xiaoxiao. And then to run as fast as possible with another golden talisman to the start of the final trial to shake her off.

    It is because this Ding Xiaoxiao is too formidable for him to handle on his own.

    She could only quietly pray for Ji Yuan that this ''Goddess Ai Tina'' may be strong enough to protect him from this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    Or maybe thebined strength of all the divine consorts in the trial may be able to kill this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily with all their profound strength and profound treasures.

    Yun Chi said to herself with a soft sigh: Ji Yuan, you have better find plenty of allies fast or run as far as possible! Or get pregnant like me! How in the great heavens did you even mess up with this Ding Xiaoxiao in the first ce?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had already departed for the trial portal because she did not want to fight a weakened Death God Mingwang since this was against her martial honor.

 Chapter 807 Departure To The Secret Oracle Gate

    ?

    Snowy Pavilion City.

    The 3 days for Ji Yuan were quickly over.

    Ji Yuan did not exactly spend his 3 days on cultivating because he had long regained his profound strength.

    Chu Lixue asked him curiously, "Howe you are able to regain your profound strength so quickly?"

    Ji Yuan awkwardly replied, "Maybe I didn''t even use half of my profound strength in the first ce. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue was in disbelief, "Tell me the truth. Or I tell my father what you did to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Isn''t this supposed to be my slogan?

    Finally, he was forced to confess his not-so-secret trump card, "Do you remember the Great Valha Hall? That''s the other SS Trial that we have previously been to."

    Chu Lixue was suddenly quiet; it was because she had suddenly remembered that was the ce where the bones of her mother consort was among the 10 million dead celestials in that ce.

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "I did say that I have found a 7th rank profound pill and the name of that profound pill is called the Minor Miracle Sanctorum Profound Pill. And it is able to increase my cultivation attainment of my inner spiritual sea by 1000 years."

    Chu Lixue slowly nodded, "I have almost forgotten about this¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to swing his arm, "Therefore I am able to maintain my profound strength during my fight with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and my deste cherubim spirit animus didn''t even vanish during my fight. So, you can really tell that I am not as drained when we were in the Demonic Divine Realm. Haha¡­"

    Then he grinned, "I was more mentally tired from the use of my Sword Domains when that bastard kept replenishing his spirit talismans nonstop. But after being with my senior sister for the past 3 days, I am ready able to fight her as I am fully mentally refreshed and replenished now. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    She quickly recovered from her dumbfounded look and asked curiously, "So, are you confident of winning this Goddess Ai Tina?"

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "I''ve got a problem actually. She knows almost all my trump cards because I told her to the veryst detail. And I don''t know what her trump cards are though."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    "You''re not joking right? You actually told her your trump cards?"

    Ji Yuan answered solemnly, "I admit that I am fooling with you for 3 days but do I look like I am joking with my senior sister about this Goddess Ai Tina?"

    Chu Lixue appeared to be startled before she said slowly, "I''ve better forced out all your yang essence from my body. I don''t want our child to be a fatherless child."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Haha¡­ senior sister is indeed really humorous."

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely before she eximed with a soft chuckle, "I am not joking with you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly, "But maybe our child won''t be so lonely after all. At least our child has a grandfather that likes to torture his both his daughter and an innocent prot¨¦g¨¦ disciple like me. Haha¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    All of a sudden Chu Lixue had raised her fingers to hit Ji Yuan on his chest hard, startling Ji Yuan.

    "Senior sister, what are you doing?"

    Chu Lixue answered nonchntly, "Don''t resist and allow me to nt my profound signature on you. You are currently too strong even for me to nt my profound tracker on you."

    Ji Yuan asked with a shocked look, "Senior sister, you are nning to follow me? You can''t follow an immortal goddess; she will surely know that you''ve been following her with her divine sense. Moreover, you can''t fly too. Haha¡­"

    "Can you shut up and don''t talk so much? And stop resisting with your soul core." Chu Lixue gave him a not so friendly look.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Haha¡­ you are like a trial spirit now. That what they all say to me¡­"

    Chu Lixue said coldly, "You''re still talking¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I can''t help it especially when there is a naked maiden in front of me that is trying to do some business with me. I am just feeling awkward¡­"

    Chu Lixue had suddenly given him a tight p to the bed and a pillow on his face to keep him quiet.

    But Ji Yuan continued to say with his face under the pillow, "Senior sister, are you thinking of forcing yourself on me¡­"

    Chu Lixue managed to force her profound signature on him before kicking him away to meet the Goddess Ai Tina and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    Ji Yuan was only teasing with her but before he left, he sighed solemnly. "Actually, I feel you shouldn''t do this. Her target isn''t you for sure. I don''t want you to lose your life because of me. Although I may not be able to defeat her but I can run but I am a little anxious about Great Consort Xu Yifei. Now promise me that you won''t do anything rush or follow too closely. She is an immortal goddess after all."

    Chu Lixue said nonchntly, "Don''t worry about that. I know my own limits. My mistress is the Death God Mingwang so I know what to do, my junior brother."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "Junior brother? You''re not addressing me as your lord now?"

    Chu Lixue smiled coldly, "I feel less miserable mourning for the loss of my junior brother than my lord, you know."

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "Hahaha¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan soon left with the Goddess Ai Tina and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    As Ji Yuan had guessed, the Goddess Ai Tina had wrapped her profound animus around Xu Yifei and himself so that they would all be able to sweep along with her to fly through the skies.

    Divine Consorts Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin were all here to send to bide them good blessings for this trip.

    In a blink of an eye, they were already high in the heavens and before long, they had disappeared from the horizon.

    Chu Lixue quietly waited for an opportunity to approach Divine Consort Tang Manni before saying, "Divine Consort Tang Manni, what if I tell you that Ji Yuan and your sister are both in great danger? Do you believe me?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled, "It is impossible. They are with the Goddess Ai Tina. Why do you say that?"

    Chu Lixue said divinely, "This trip may be dangerous for the two of you. I''m not worried for the Goddess Ai Tina but the two of them. Why don''t we secretly follow them?"

    Divine Consort Tang Manni shook her head, "We are forbidden by the Goddess Ai Tina to follow them or to know the location of the legendary secret oracle gate. If the Goddess Ai Tina knows about this, I will lose her trust in me. I can''t do this¡­"

    Chu Lixue was half-expecting this as a reply so she said, "Then may I borrow a flying mount from you. I''ll promise you that I won''t betray you for lending me a flying mount. All responsibilities will be mine alone. Don''t you want your sister or Ji Yuan to be safe and sound?"

    After a short moment of hesitant, Divine Consort Tang Manni answered swiftly. "Alright then."

 Chapter 808 The Legendary Secret Oracle Gate

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina had wrapped Ji Yuan and the Divine Consort Xu Yifei with her profound animus to pull them across the skies as they sped like a meteor.

    This was actually the first time that Ji Yuan was flying across the skies without a mount and he was muttering, "Is it safe at all?"

    He was actually thinking: What if she drops me from above?

    Well, he probably won''t die since he can summon his deste cherubim to slow down his descent and even float in mid-air.

    The speed which the Goddess Ai Tina had carried them were actually faster than any flying mounts that Ji Yuan was ustomed to.

    He was thinking, it was no wonder why she had said that the ce that she dwelled was 1000 times bigger than Snowy Pavilion City.

    The Goddess Ai Tina returned a wry smile at Ji Yuan, "Great Spiritas Hero don''t like the feeling of flying through the heavens?"

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "I actually enjoy the feeling that I am able to fly like a bird. I feel so free."

    "Heh! That''s good then." The Goddess Ai Tina smiled at his response. "Then I can go even faster."

    Ji Yuan stammered, "You can go even faster?"

    Crap, he was getting a little dizzy now and felt like puking in the air. But the thought that his pukes may drop on the bosoms or the head of a beautiful maiden forced him to suppress his urge to puke immediately.

    The Goddess Ai Tina did not respond to him and instead she had doubled her speed.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: My senior sister, I don''t think you can ever catch up with me now¡­

    4 hourster, they hade to a range of mountains that were covered with dense pink mists.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said quietly, "We are not in the regions of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad for sure."

    The Goddess Ai Tina nodded, "In the past, this ce is known to me as the Great Primeval Spirit Mountains."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled, "It is still known by this name. This is a most dangerous ce that are filled with the presence of the deadly primeval monsters. It is so dangerous that we are forbidden toe to this area¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was interrupted by two loud shrieking as two monstrous winged lizards had suddenly emerged from the dense forest mists from the mountains below.

    Ji Yuan was also rmed because these two monsters were equivalent to powerful 7th rank profound deste monsters in his Celestial Realm.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei shouted a warning, "These 2 are Primal Dragons, 3rd ss 7th rank primeval beasts! They are highly dangerous. Be careful!"

    Now, one must know that a 7th realm cultivator is never equaled to a 7th rank profound monster even though both have a 7th in their rankings.

    The celestial cultivators are divided into 1-7 cultivation realms, as this is the cultivation realm before they can ascend to the immortal realm. And they are using the cultivation methods of the celestial immortals. That is why when they have ascended to the immortal realms, they are still continuing their cultivation realm as the 8th and 9th, and even beyond that.

    It is because there is no broken cultivation heritage; it has always been like this for untold thousands of years.

    However, in order to be golden celestials and truly powerful, a celestial must cultivate to the 5th cultivation realm of the golden celestial first to attain their golden invincible body. It is at this stage that they will no longer need to feed or drink, and can meditate for long periods of time. Their lifespan will also increase tremendously.

    At the 6th cultivation realm which is the golden supremacy level, also called the spirit cultivation stage, a celestial cultivator is able to gain control of their spirit animus and they could even master the use of sword spirits, the use of absorbing a spirit entity from a deste monster, enhance their spirt animus or profound aura.

    One of the main benefits for this important cultivation level is the ability for a cultivator to conceal their own cultivation realm and to read the cultivation realms of the lower cultivation realm cultivators.

    The 7th cultivation realm which is the Sacred Saint level is even more mysterious and powerful than the 6th cultivation realm. The disparity between the lower, middle and upper tier is so big that it has to be divided into a golden saint, sacred saint and a great saint.

    Even a middle tier sacred saint can hardly put up a fight with a great saint as they are all tempered by the lightning tribtion and their inner spiritual sea is twice as vast.

    And a great saint like the other tiers have its differences as well, dividing themselves into mortal-step, earth-step, heaven-step and the peaked.

    A 7th rank profound beast also has its tiers but they are all capable of killing even a great saint because their profound strength is much higher and no great saints will think of even trying to tank them. Moreover, their profound defenses and regeneration also allow them to take tens of times more hits than a great saint of the same level too.

    The purpose for the ranking is to tell the cultivators that as a 7th realm cultivator, they may survive a hit from a 7th rank profound monster and it is best not to provoke these 7th rank profound beasts. Even a 6th rank profound can easily kill a 7th cultivation realm cultivator so it is best that they pick a profound beast that is 2 ranks lower than their cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan said with a grim look to the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "I''ll take the one on the left and you to the right¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Ai Tina had released two glowing spirit talismans and it sped like a light toward these two primal dragons.

    Ji Yuan could sense the profound energies of these 2 spirit talisman and it was only at the 7th cultivation realm, far weaker than the 8th immortal cultivation realm of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Even the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled as she was expecting a 8th immortal spirit talisman to materialize from the finger tips of the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Upon impact, these two glowing spirit talismans had immediately exploded into a ball of blue profound fire.

    However, the two Primal Dragons were only slowed down briefly as they shriek loudly before they recovered from the knock back that were caused by the 2 blue profound fire.

    But all of a sudden, the 2 spirit talismans had reformed once again in the midst of the blue profound fire and exploded again; this time the explosion was 5 times bigger!

    A primal dragon was suddenly ripped apart and the other primal dragon quickly fled back to the pink mists of the dense forest below the mountains.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see this disy as this reminded him of his battle with the two elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce that were also using talismans that could reformed after it was being used.

    Normal, a spirit or a physical talisman can only be used only once.

    Even the spirit talisman of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong can only be used once.

    But the spirit talismans of the Goddess Ai Tina had not only exploded once but twice and the second time that it had exploded, it had even far exceeded the profound power of even the 8th immortal spirit talismans of the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong!

    Ji Yuan thought: This is her trump card? If she uses her 8th immortal spirit talisman then won''t I be dead instantly?

    The reason why he had thought of this was because he had personally witnessed her 7th cultivation realm talisman tearing apart the powerful protective profound aura of these two primal dragons with just a single use.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was gasping with shock, "I''ve never seen anything like this before¡­ is it even possible?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina inhaled softly, "A normal spirit cultivator won''t be able to do this but I am able to because I have the help of the Goddess'' Tear in the past¡­"

    Xiang Li was thinking inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Who is calling me? Huh me?

    She tried to speak but could not as though there was a powerful restriction that was on her.

    Actually, unknown to Xiang Li. In the very first ce, she was not supposed to be able to remember anything rted to the Goddess'' Tear at all.

    Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he thought: This is the power of the Goddess'' Tear?!

    The Goddess Ai Tina soon stopped in mid-air with them enveloped in her profound animus as she said slowly, "It is about time soon."

    All of a sudden, the presence of an immortal profound aura was felt by everyone from above the thick grey clouds.

    And all of a sudden, a gigantic skull had suddenly appeared in the heavens above and it was slowly descending onto the mountains below.

    Then from the mouth of this gigantic skull, it burst out a gigantic wave of brilliant re of profound energies that sketched for a hundred miles long and a mile widepletely obliterated a part of the mountain, ckening it and killing everything that stood in its path, even the 7th rank deste beasts.

    Ji Yuan was shocked by the size of this gigantic skull and the sheer profound power that it had just disyed.

    The Goddess Ai Tina sad nonchntly, "This powerful profound st will soon alert the nearby cultivators that the legendary Secret Oracle Gate is here."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly, "Indeed. We may be the first but we may not be the only ones."

    The Goddess Ai Tina merely smiled as she raised 4 spirit talismans in mid-air near the mouth of this gigantic skull.

    These 4 spirit talismans quickly faded into nothingness and a presence of something powerful had suddenly been created.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was gasping with shock, "This is an immortal array. No, a powerful profound circle¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "This should keep out all the other nosy cultivators from the legendary Secret Oracle Gate."

    Ji Yuan was now thinking: Crap! Senior sister, I hope that you are not following me to this ce¡­ because¡­

    His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the Goddess Ai Tina as she seized them with her profound animus, "Come follow me to the inside of this skull. We are going now into the Secret Oracle Gate to look for the Great Oracle of the Delphi."

 Chapter 809 Inside The Legendary Secret Oracle Gate

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina, Ji Yuan and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei were like a speck of dust as they entered into the mouth of the gigantic skull.

    Soon Ji Yuan saw that they were like in another world and they were in a tall forest with trees that was half a mile tall and the ground was covered with frost.

    Ji Yuan felt extremely heavy and even cold!

    The Goddess Ai Tina said quietly, "We are now inside the Secret Oracle Gate now. I can''t fly in here because the mysticws of this ce are different from the outside world."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei nodded slowly, "I feel much weaker in this ce."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "It isn''t because you have be weaker but rather it is because this world exists in a higher ne than ours and we need a stronger cultivation realm in order to ovee this ce."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "It is no wonder I am feeling cold in this ce."

    As a celestial cultivator with the golden body tempering, Ji Yuan is mostly impervious to most cold and hot weather conditions.

    And he would actually feel cold in this ce.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei saw that Ji Yuan was shivering so she quickly took out a white and blue mystic cloak to cover him.

    "Master Ji Yuan, please allow me."

    Immediately Ji Yuan felt a lot warmer, "Thank you. This cloak helps a lot. Erm, how about you?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled gently to him, "Don''t worry, Master Ji Yuan. I''m not cold at all."

    Ji Yuan was startled for Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was wearing very little and much of her body was also nude.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei exined gently, "Even though we may not have the golden bodies of the celestials but our spirit bodies are more resistant to the elements."

    Ji Yuan nodded awkwardly, "But if you are cold, just let me know. I can always disy my profound animus to keep myself warm."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei smiled gently, "I will."

    Ji Yuan reminded her, "Remember what I have say to you that day¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was startled by this reminder; it was because Ji Yuan had told her not to trust the Goddess Ai Tina and even asked her to be prepared for a fight against her.

    All of a sudden, she had noticed that the small red lips of the Goddess Ai Tina were trembling.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had walked in front of her and she was holding her shoulders anxiously, "This cloak. Where did you get it?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei returned a startled look as she answered nonchntly, "This is from myte mother consort and my family heirloom."

    The Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly bled her fingers and had stabbed it onto the forehead of Xu Yifei, startling Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan at the same time!

    Ji Yuan shouted panicky as he summoned his immortal scabbard onto his back, "What are you doing?!"

    The attack by the Goddess Ai Tina hade too early!

    But the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly let go of her fingers from Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s forehead and she was trembling lightly.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had a suddenly scare but when she saw that nothing had happened to her, she was blinking her eyes as she looked at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was about to attack the Goddess Ai Tina when he saw that she had already loosened her fingers on Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s forehead and so he stopped in his tracks as well.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was trembling as she looked at Xu Yifei.

    And even her lips were trembling nonstop.

    It was because she just did a blood test on Xu Yifei and to her astonishment, she had just discovered that Xu Yifei is her very own bloodline!

    Her dead daughter actually had a bloodline¡­

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Ai Tina felt a sudden intimacy with Xu Yifei and she was quietly looking at her from top to bottom, up and down¡­

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was ufortable when the Goddess Ai Tina seemed to be inspecting her and she called out softly, "Your goddess, is something wrong?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina sobered a little and she was smiling with bleary eyes, "Nothing. I am just testing your potential."

    But there was also a sadness in her eyes because she hade to kill Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan today¡­

    No!

    Xu Yifei must not die.

    It is because Xu Yifei may be her one and only bloodline in this world!

    Her only attachment that is left in this world¡­

    Only Ji Yuan must die.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly summoned her white and blue Divine Shield of Ai Tina and said to Xu Yifei, "This is for you."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was shocked as she stammered, "This¡­ this is too valuable. This is your goddess'' shield. I can''t take this¡­ and I don''t deserve this¡­"

    Ji Yuan was also quite startled because he could tell that this white and blue shield was extremely potent and he could sense the immortal aura of this shield.

    And he was thinking: Why is she giving away and revealing her trump card?

    Because she is trying to gain Xu Yifei''s trust¡­

    She knows that I will partner with her to fight her¡­

    This is her divide and conquer tactic¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Oh no. Xu Yifei, don''t believe her so readily¡­

    Xiang Li said to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I think you are too suspicious of the Goddess Ai Tina. She looks so nice and generous. You shouldn''t be doubting her good intentions.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned at her: Xiang Li, you are still too young and simple! This is obvious her ploy to divide us and to kill us!

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei shook her head to say weakly, "Your goddess, I can''t take your divine shield. I believe that you once said that whoever can find your divine shield or use your divine shield shall be your sessor. I don''t think I am the one."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled to her with a gentle look, "Nonsense. I''ve just tested you. You are my worthy sessor. Take it. My decision is final."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was stunned, "I am your sessor? Your worthy sessor? What did I do to deserve this?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled to give her an assuring look, "You are my chosen divine consort to lead the other divine consorts in my stead after I am gone from the Spirit Divine Realm."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei asked curiously, "What if I am able to win the Great Games in the Spiritas Tower, then won''t my destiny be with my Goddess Ai Tina instead?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina was suddenly quiet; it was because what she had said was the truth.

    But she quickly said solemnly, "That is why I am here to seek an answer. This answer can change the fates of both the Spirit Divine Realm and the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei asked curiously, "May I know what question is our Goddess Ai Tina going to ask at the Great Oracle of Delphi?"

    Actually, Ji Yuan was curious as well.

    Why all the fuss over a question?

    Maybe she got struck in her cultivation realm and needed a solution?

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly looked up to the heavens of this new world as she answered with a soft sigh, "I am looking for the whereabouts of the True Devil God in the Spirit Divine Realm. So, this will be my question for the Great Oracle."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was stunned; it is because she knows that Ji Yuan is the True Devil God himself...

    Should I tell the Goddess Ai Tina instead or she will surely waste her question¡­

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was also shocked: What? That ugly True Devil God is in the Spirit Divine Realm?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly said to Xu Yifei and there was a woeful look in her eyes, "This question can change your fate too¡­"

    And my fate as well.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei looked even more startled as she muttered, "It can change my fate?"

    Ji Yuan was already analyzing her question in his mind.

    I get it now.

    She must be thinking of joining forces with this True Devil God to enve the Spirit Divine Realm, right?

    So, this is her true intention.

    Then all the more I must stop her from obtaining this answer.

    She must die before I do in this ce then.

    Or I can kill the True Devil God first? He isn''t an immortal right?

    Xiang Li weakly said to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I think you have a sexist discrimination against the Goddess Ai Tina. She doesn''t look as bad as you sound her to be.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately: What sexist discrimination? Xiang Li, you can''t even use the proper word. She is trying to kill your Big Brother, you know.

    All of a sudden, he was thinking what his senior sister had told him during the 3 days that they were together; the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had told her that he had a drop of the pure blood essence from the True Devil God.

    Maybe the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong is on his way to be the True Devil God, just like in the cultivation stories.

    In the cultivation stories, usually the MCs with such a heaven-defying cheat, for some unknown reasons, also happened to be good in all kinds of cultivations that he would be able to attain his cultivations to a perfect level and this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong happened to fit the description in a perfect manner.

    How is it possible for a cultivator to be good in everything when all the other cultivators in the entire universe are not good in everything in the first ce?

    He is the One.

    Therefore, this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong must be the True Devil God reincarnation.

    Ji Yuan silently worded: Sorry bro. If I am not dead in this expedition then I shall go and hunt you dead instead. It is alright if you are the True Devil God but you try to green my senior sister and in the future, you will even try to change the fate of Xu Yifei by having the approval of the Goddess Ai Tina on your side to copte with her.

    Fairy Anyang whispered to Xiang Li: Erm, is our lord making far too many ns ahead?

    Xiang Li giggled jovially: That''s my Big Brother and our lord!

    Fairy Anyang whispered: I think he should n how to fight the Goddess Ai Tina instead, who is his more immediately possible ''enemy''.

    Xiang Li whispered back, with more giggles: You know that Big Brother always got distracted by the ones that are greening him¡­

 Chapter 810 The Goddess Ai Tina And The Goddessâ€™ Tear

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina had insisted that Xu Yifei epted her ''Divine Shield of Ai Tina''.

    Even though Xu Yifei felt uneasy about epting this the Divine Shield of Ai Tina but in the end, she was forced to ept it as the Goddess Ai Tina insisted upon it and had said that this was her decree.

    Also, the Goddess Ai Tina was looking at her in a way that were full of sentiments and sincerity.

    Especially when the Goddess Ai Tina had told her, "You are going to be my most worthy sessor."

    This caused Xu Yifei to feel a little ufortable and even guilty in her heart conscious because Ji Yuan had told her not to believe in the Goddess Ai Tina anymore; it was because the Goddess Ai Tina had nned to kill her and Ji Yuan at the same time.

    During their sentimental exchanges, Ji Yuan was clenching his fists as he said silently: Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, this Goddess Ai Tina is merely trying to confuse you so that you will help her to kill me. After this horrible deed of killing me is done, she will surely kill you and take back her immortal shield. You can''t use her immortal shield now anyway so this is merely a decoration for you¡­.

    Xiang Li interrupted Ji Yuan: Erm, Big Brother. If she gives her immortal shield to Maiden Xu Yifei then she can''t use it anymore, right? Then won''t her trump card be one less powerful to be used against you?

    Fairy Anyang said as well: That''s right. I don''t really understand why give her powerful immortal shield away? Maybe she has another trump card that can kill our lord here?

    Xiang Li giggled: Her spirit talismans can kill my Big Brother already.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned to them: Whose side are the two of you on? Are you happy that I will soon be dead? The reason why she gives her trump card away is because she is trying to cause a division between Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and I. This is a more deadly trump card than her immortal shield!

    Xiang Li had suddenly said: But she really looks so friendly¡­

    When she had said that, she had suddenly appeared outside of Ji Yuan''s soul sea, causing Ji Yuan, the Goddess Ai Tina and even Xu Yifei to be rmed!

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Sister, how are you?"

    Xu Yifei had already known of Xiang Li but she was still surprised because she had not expected Xiang Li to appear to greet the powerful Goddess Ai Tina. Moreover, she knows that Xiang Li is the Goddess'' Tear as well.

    Ji Yuan was stupefied because Xiang Li had an order from him not toe out of his soul sea and she had rarely do so.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was looking quite startled as she looked at Xiang Li, "I know you. You are the Goddess'' Tear?"

    But she quickly asked, "What is your name?"

    The reason why she had quickly skipped her question was because she had suddenly remembered that the Goddess Tear would not be able to remember anything about the Goddess'' Tear.

    She just did not know that Xiang Li was now able to remember but she could not acknowledge it due to her restrictions.

    Xiang Li answered happily, "Big Sister, my name is Xiang Li. You have a nice scent and I seem to know you somewhere."

    Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily to himself: Xiang Li! Now is not the time to woo the maidens! And she is evil and she wants us all dead!

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded as she looked at Xiang Li and her eyes had be bleary; she had been trying to suppress her emotions when she had suddenly realized that Xu Yifei is her bloodline. But now when she also realized that this Xiang Li is the Goddess Tear, she could no longer suppress her emotions within her heart.

    "Yeah¡­ a long, long time ago, we are friends¡­"

    Xiang Li was delighted, "Really Big Sister?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded, "You are more beautiful than before."

    Actually, the Goddess'' Tear hardly changes her appearances but she was just praising Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li was delighted and she was giggling, "Then you don''t hurt my Big Brother, alright?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina took a sudden look at Ji Yuan before she smiled wryly to Xiang Li, "Of course not. Why should I? He is our Great Spiritas Hero."

    Xiang Li was extremely delighted, "That is good! Xiang Li is happy now!"

    Ji Yuan was almost ready to dig a hole in the ground to cover himself from the awkwardness that Xiang Li had brought to him; it is because Xiang Li is just too na?ve to trust an enemy. She is too young, too simple!<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Goddess Ai Tina quietly looked at Xiang Li with mixed emotions; her cultivation had shown a massive improvement due to the Goddess'' Tear and before the Goddess Tear had vanished from her soul sea, her profound skill with the spirit talismans were strengthened tremendously and she managed to aplish what no other spirit cultivators would be able to do.

    At the same time, the Goddess'' Tear had also manifest into a white blue shield as a final augment of her final wish.

    And the Goddess Ai Tina had called this white blue shield as the Divine Shield of Ai Tina and it was to be her most powerful weapon against the divine lords.

    But today, she had actually given her most precious Divine Shield of Ai Tina to Xu Yifei, because she wanted to tell her but cannot tell her at the same time that she was someone very important to her.

    And she hopes that this Divine Shield of Ai Tina would protect Xu Yifei just like her friend the Goddess'' Tear had protected her in the past.

    In the past, Xiang Li was known as another name; it is because after the Goddess Tear has used up her powers, she will restart everything again by forgetting about the past.

    The solo purpose of the Goddess'' Tear is to appear before the desperate kind souls to give them a hope. This is the endless samsara of the Goddess'' Tear and her destiny.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had never thought that today she would be seeing her old friend again.

    Then she was suddenly weeping emotionally as she fell down weakly onto the snowy ground and soon her soft weeping cries could be heard.

    This startled Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and Xiang Li.

    Xiang Li panicky asked, "Big Sister, why are you crying? Xiang Li is pained to see you just like this."

    Ji Yuan waspletely stunned; she is crying when she sees Xiang Li?!

    Xu Yifei was thinking quietly: It is true that our Goddess Ai Tina had found the Goddess'' Tear in the past and she has since overthrown the tyranny rule of the divine lords.

    The hot tears of the Goddess Ai Tina continued to surface on her beautiful countenance as she wept uncontrobly and she was continuously trembling.

    It was because she had once gone through a long and emotional journey with the Goddess'' Tear together. There were too many days of terrible darkness in those days when the divine lords ruled the city-states of the Spirit Divine Realm and they had wept tears of bitterness together almost every night.

    When she had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm, she had purposely left behind the Divine Shield of Ai Tina as a hope for the people in the Spirit Divine Realm. Because the Goddess'' Tear was her hope in her darkness hour.

    But she had never suspected that she would be betrayed by the Legendary Spiritas Hero Achilles when she had ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Everything that she knows about the Greater Spirit Realm is but a big lie!

    In the end, she is the greatest sinner of the Spirit Divine Realm that she had once tried her best to save from the decadent ways of the divine lords!

    When she saw Xiang Li, she hadpletely broken down.

    Xiang Li, do you know that if your Big Brother does not die then I will surely die¡­

    At least I can''t die yet until I have found the True Devil God¡­ because¡­

    Ji Yuan was at a loss as he thought: Erm, she doesn''t look like she is acting. Am I mistaken about her? I am actually mistaken about a lot of maidens in the past¡­ if so, this will be so awkward to my face¡­ especially when I have already warned Xu Yifei about her Goddess Ai Tina¡­

    But he suddenly said to himself with a silent chuckle: No wait. This ought to be her bait for me. Unfortunately for her, I am too smart to fall for her trick. Woe to her, the person that can bait me has not yet been born yet. Haha¡­

    When Fairy Anyang had heard him, she rolled her eyes with disbelief¡­

    Xu Yifei was gasping softly all of a sudden as she thought of something: Since the Goddess Ai Tina wants to ask the whereabouts of the True Devil God and Ji Yuan is the True Devil God reincarnation, does this means that Master Ji Yuan is not lying to her when he says that the Goddess Ai Tina is trying to kill him?

    She was thinking: If I can stop the Goddess Ai Tina from obtaining this question, does it mean that I can also save Master Ji Yuan?

 Chapter 811 8th Rank, 1st Class Golden Horn Wolly Nympha (1)

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina soon regained herposure as she quietly said to Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei, "Let''s go. We have only 3 days to navigate through this forested maze before the secret oracle gate will expulse us from this ce."

    Then the Goddess Ai Tina softened her tone to say, "We need to find the Great Oracle of Delphi as soon as possible as this ce will sap our profound strength slowly. So, we can''t afford to stay in this ce for too long."

    Ji Yuan kind of agreed with her because he could feel his profound strength slowly draining away by the intense pressure of this ce. It seemed that even immortals were not spared from this and that was why she could no longer fly in this ce.

    Xiang Li giggled as she said, "Bye, bye. Big Sister."

    And then she had disappeared into Ji Yuan''s soul sea again.

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were soon on their way into the maze-like dense forests that were also filled with pink mists.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "We are going to need a good sense of direction to navigate this forest. Somehow my divine sense is restricted here and I can''t even tell my direction from these tall trees that block out the bright heavens from above.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei nodded, "My spirit divine sense is blocked here as well. I''ve no way of knowing my direction."

    The Goddess Ai Tina pointed to a direction, "Let''s take that path over there."

    And she had already walked rapidly in that direction.

    Ji Yuan weakly said as he followed her with Xu Yifei, "I guess that only an immortal goddess is able to discern the direction in here. We are so lucky to have the Goddess Ai Tina with us."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said without slowing her pace down, "You don''t have to praise me to the heavens. It is because I am also just randomly trying out a direction. My divine sense does not work well either."

    Ji Yuan, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei: ¡­

    1 hourter.

    Soon they hade to a vicinity of the tall iron forests where the pink mists were particr heavy and where the tall trees seemed to form into a corridor and the tree roots were so tall that it was 30 meter in height.

    If they wanted a clear path then they must hop upon the tree roots to try to find a path elsewhere.

    All of a sudden, a gigantic white caterpir with a golden horn was seen in front of them; it was so huge that they were just as tall as its tiny legs.

    But the most startling about this gigantic white caterpir was that it had a formidable profound aura that identified it to be a 8th rank primeval profound monster.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei gasped with shock, "8th rank Golden Horn Wolly Nympha¡­"

    Then she said in a trembling voice, "¡­and it is first ss as well. We can''t fight it¡­"

    From the profound aura of this primeval profound monster, Ji Yuan was also able to identify it as an equivalent to a 8th rank epic deste profound monster in the Celestial Realm. So, first ss correspond to an epic monster in the Celestial Realm. This was indeed not going to be an easy fight.

    The Goddess Ai Tina however said, "We need to fight it because it is our trial."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "It is our trial? An 8th rank 1st ss profound monster?"

    Although he had said that, he had already disyed his immortal scabbard on his back and his 9 divine swords in front of him.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to him, "I don''t me for not knowing the legends of this ce. If you want to the Great Oracle of Delphi, then you must first pass 3 trials. If we can encounter a difficulty here then it means that we are on the right track."

    Ji Yuan was astonished, "You mean if we don''t encounter any difficulties then we can never find the Great Oracle of Delphi?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei nodded, "Master Ji Yuan, you are right. This is also called the 3 Tasks of the Great Oracle of Delphi. Rather than saying that we are searching for the Great Oracle of Delphi, we are actually checking for the 3 Tasks of the Great Oracle of Delphi before we can see the Great Oracle of Delphi. The minute that we havee to this ce, is also the start of our trial¡­"

    Then she looked nervously at the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha that were now crawling with a rapid speed toward them, "If we run away now, then we may not know when the next trial wille to us."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan had a stupefied look on his face, "And so, we have to fight this monster because we never know if we are able toplete all 3 tasks within 3 days?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina had already 4 golden spirit talismans in front of her and she had increased her profound animus to the 8th immortal positioning.

    "We need to gamble on this fight."

    Then she turned to Xu Yifei to say solemnly, "Yifei, use my divine shield. It should be able to keep you safe for the time being. Don''t let this monster hit you or it will be fatal for you."

    She took a look at Ji Yuan, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, you don''t mind distracting this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha while we keep our distance, do you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I will distract this monster alone?

    Are you kidding me?

    If I get hit by it, I will surely die.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said panicky when she saw that the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha was now fast approaching and in a few blinks of an eye, would be crawling where they were standing. "Let me go instead. I have the Divine Shield of Ai Tina. I can get perhaps a few hits¡­"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "No!"

    And he had already sent his 9 flying swords to slow the approach of the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha. However, his 9 flying swords were too weak to do any damage and scattered upon impact.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan had already unsheathed his Anyang emperor-step divine sword as he shed forward tobat this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    Xiang Li was startled: Big Brother, you are not using me?

    Ji Yuan did not answer her; it is because he is still angry with her for appearing earlier. He doesn''t want Xiang Li to appear in front of her ex-owner because Xiang Li isn''t a tool but his dear friend!

    And the reason why he had said a loud ''No!'' to Xu Yifei was because it was against his principle to allow a maiden to fight ahead of him, especially to weaken an opponent for him.

    Also, he did not mind having to flee if he cannot defeat an opponent but he did not want Xu Yifei to risk her life for a little rascal like him.

    It was because he knows that Xu Yifei was respectful to him since the beginning and she had even tried to help to treat his profound darkness within his soul sea. For that, she did not even return to her tavern for many days to look for a solution for him.

    When he was fighting the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong, she had also offered to fight side by side with him.

    All the more, he did not want to risk her life.

    Moreover, this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha is an epic profound monster and isn''t aughing matter to deal with.

 Chapter 812 8th Rank, 1st Class Golden Horn Wolly Nympha (2)

    ?

    In the city-state of Aiel.

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang was in an audience with two of her celestial champions.

    "This Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is really something. He has even be a personal guard of honor of our Goddess Ai Tina. I wonder what his background is?"

    Her two celestial champions were actually two celestial maidens and they were both peaked great saintesses as well; they were Ling Feiyue and Hua Yunzi.

    Ling Feiyue smiled gently and her beautiful heavenly looks were amplified in this great hall.

    "It isn''t too hard for our great divine consort to know this Ji Yuan''s background. It is because I happen to know his background."

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang was startled, "You do? Tell me about him?"

    Not only did Ling Feiyue knows Ji Yuan but Hua Yunzi as well.

    However, Ling Feiyue knows more about Ji Yuan''s ck history than Hua Yunzi because she was actually his consort but she was not going to reveal this today.

    She said gently, "Heh! Maybe I should start from the very beginning of his early history¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang and even Hua Yunzi were now paying attentively to her. And she knows that she had got their attention.

    Ling Feiyue lifted her head slowly as she pretended to recall from what she could remember from Ji Yuan''s early history, "Do you all know that he has be a sword saint while he was only at the 4th cultivation realm? That is, it is way before he has be a 5th cultivation realm golden celestial. Now this is quite impossible for most but he has managed to do it¡­"

    Hua Yunzi was stunned, "Is it even possible? That means that he has no golden body when he had taken the Sword Saint Trial and no way for him to regain his profound strength quickly. Or even to regenerate his wounds¡­"

    Ling Feiyue nodded slowly, "Believe it or not. It is the truth. And he is also a poor cultivator from the Orthodox Sword Sect in the Five Heavens Peak that are in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. He does have a sword saint master but he is always missing in action¡­"

    "Before he had be the prot¨¦g¨¦ leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect, he was actually in love with his junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister until Jin Yilong, a golden celestiales along and took her away. The reason why his junior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister had broken off with him was because she did not believe that Ji Yuan would be a golden celestial anytime soon because he did not have any cultivation resources. Even if he could, that would take him centuriester. But she was wrong. Very wrong¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was secretly delighted; it was because she hadpletely captured the attention of her patron the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang now.

    At this moment, she was actually thinking of counting her Trust Points with the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang.

    She said silently with a yful smile: I''m sorry Ji Yuan that I am using your name to get my Trust Points. A trial is a trial. Our close rtionship got nothing to do with your privacy. Heehee.

    If Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong know that Ling Feiyue was not hopping mad, they would be shocked.

    But Ling Feiyue, being Ling Feiyue had the coolest temperament among all of the maidens and it was quite hard to provoke her to anger. And even Ji Yuan was wishing that Ling Feiyue would re up sometimes but there were basically no reactions from her except that she likes to gossip about Ji Yuan to the other maidens; she didn''t even care if Ji Yuan will be angry with her for doing so.

    -

    -

    -

    Inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.

    The instant that Ji Yuan had shed to charge at the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha, he had disyed his sword spirit into his right forehand to unleash his formidable Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    This sword spirt was still his usual sword spirit and not his ultra sword spirit; it turns out that he can still use his sword spirits as two instead ofbining them into an ultra sword spirit.

    Naturally he was not going to disy it first as this was his trump card against the Goddess Ai Tina.

    A white re of coiling light consisted of pure sword energies flew like a coiling dragon had immediately exploded harmlessly onto the face of the charging Golden Horn Wolly Nympha before it dissipated into sparks of profound sword energies.

    Ji Yuan''s most powerful sword energy attack was actually useless against the profound aura of this monster, not even injuring it.

    It was no different from using the normal Heavenly Light of the Coiling instead of the super version.

    "My coiling dragon sword energies is like a coiling worm against this giant worm that looks like a dragon¡­"

    Before he could mutter his words of sarcasm, the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha was spewing silk webs that looked more like profound st that exploded all over Ji Yuan.

    Xu Yifei was gasping with shock; there was no way for Ji Yuan to dodge all these profound sts that were spewing like water all over the vicinity.

    Ji Yuan dodged the profound sts like crazy and with astonishing speed using his ultra instincts senses.

    Unlike most cultivators that did not focus on their martial moves and their agility, Ji Yuan actually focuses on these two aspects the most. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    It is because to most of the cultivators, their profound strength, profound power and profound defense are what it really matters. There is no need to have any fanciful moves.

    But Ji Yuan is from the poor region of the Five Heavens Peaks where deste monsters from below the deste mists would frequently ascend to terrorize the celestial sects. Therefore, he had actually fought more deste monsters than cultivators in the past.

    In order to survive a fight with the powerful deste monster, not getting hit by them is a mean of survival itself.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was shocked that Ji Yuan was actually evading the impossible and she quickly released 4 spirit talismans at the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    But the Goddess Ai Tina was even swifter than her and she had released 4 golden talismans of the 7th profound power onto the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha and exploding it over it.

    The Golden Horn Wolly Nympha was actually unaffected by the 4 explosions but soon the 4 explosions had exploded mightily again and it was 5 times more powerful.

    This was followed by the 4 spirit talismans from Xu Yifei that also exploded over it.

    These explosions had brought relief to Ji Yuan who was almost at his limit break as he tried to evade the profound sts of this monster.

    However, the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha was still unharmed and it was now growling angrily as the entire forest began to shake with the sounds of its furies.

    The Golden Horn Wolly Nympha then turned its golden horn in the direction of the Goddess Ai Tina and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei before a mystic profound circle was suddenly formed around its horn.

    The Goddess Ai Tina shouted loudly to Xu Yifei amidst the bellowing loud noises of this monster, "Defend yourself! This monstrosity is using its mystic profound attack on us now!"

    She had quickly disyed two defensive spirit talismans in front of her.

    And so did Xu Yifei who was also doing the same.

    Therge mystic profound circle that was around the golden horn of this monster began to spin rapidly and a static field was formed around it, knocking Ji Yuan to m him against a tree with a thunderous crash as he was too near to this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    At the same time, severalrge streaks of golden lightning began to fly with a startling speed as it exploded over the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei.

    The defensive talismans of the Goddess Ai Tina were burnt up by the attack and she was sent flying 30m backward to m loudly against a tall iron tree as she coughed out golden blood at the same time.

    As for Xu Yifei, her 2 spirit talismans were also destroyed by the lightning and she was merely pushed back 10m as the Divine Shield of Ai Tina hovered in front of her to absorb all the lightning sts.

    When the lightning sts had cleared, the vicinity around Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were all ckened and dark smog began to rise from the ground.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled by the profound power of these lightning because it covered a wide area and it was impossible for him to dodge the lightning too.

    But he was even more startled by the defensive power that was disyed by the Divine Shield of Ai Tina as it absorbed most of the impact from Xu Yifei.

    This lightning sts were so powerful that not even the Goddess Ai Tina, a 8th immortal goddess was able to withstand it with 2 of her defensive spirit talismans and moreover, it hadpletely ripped apart her profound animus to injure her.

    When the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha saw that only Xu Yifei was still standing, it began to shake its head in a terrible rage and an even bigger mystic profound circle twice the size of the earlier big mystic profound circle was forming in front of its golden horn!

    "Crap!" Ji Yuan coughed out bitterly as he struggled weakly to stand up.

    He has to stand up quickly to save Xu Yifei!

    Even before he could use his most powerful sword arts, he was almost immobilized by the static lighting field of this epic 8th rank profound monster.

    He had never thought that a stupid looking worm could be capable of using profound attacks and moreover, it could disy the powerful mystic profound circles that only the powerful immortal cultivators could be capable of using.

    He could see that even the Goddess Ai Tina had been wounded by the lightning profound attacks; profound lightning is especially deadly for all the cultivators no matter which divine realms that they are from. It is even more deadly if the cultivators do not have any divine swords to absorb the impact of the lightning.

    And these spiritas are spirit cultivators that do not use a divine weapon, which make profound lightning especially deadly against them.

    At this moment, Xu Yifei was looking pale; it was because even though she wasrgely protected from harm but the Divine Shield of Ai Tina had drained her profound strength to protect her from the profound lightning attack.

    She may have survived the onughter of the first profound lightning attacks but the second profound lightning attacks will be even more powerful than the first.

 Chapter 813 8th Rank, 1st Class Golden Horn Wolly Nympha (3)

    ?

    Ji Yuan had unsheathed his other emperor-step divine sword Xiang Li to his left hand and also his second sword spirit.

    In fact, in order to shake off the shackles of the immobilization on him, he had also mustered his deste cherubim spirt animus.

    However, he still could not move freely and he knows that he could not evene close to this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha due to the intense static field that was generating around it when the mystic profound circle was generating.

    "Millions Swords Field!"

    Hundreds of profound swords materialized around him as Ji Yuan willed all his sword intentions to form his Thousand Sacred Swords into the Harker of the Million Swords through his Millions Swords Domain.

    No matter what, he could not allow Xu Yifei toe to harm as he sent an onughter of hundreds of profound sword energies into a straight impale against the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha!

    This was not the time to save his trump cards anymore as he used one of his most powerful sword arts immediately.

    To his surprise, the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly recovered from where she was and she had shed in a staggering manner in front of Xu Yifei as she disyed all her profound animus to disy two 8th immortal profound power spirit talismans to fly at the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was looking surprised was because he had thought that the Goddess Ai Tina would use Xu Yifei as a shield and had cunningly given her the divine shield so as to trick her into tanking a trial monster such as this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    Is her acting so good that she can create so manyyers of tricks to deceive us?

    But he did not have the time to ponder over this.

    It was because the immortal spirit talismans of the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly exploded over the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha and at the same time Ji Yuan''s Harker of the Million Swords had also attacked it.

    The shes of profound energies on the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha were so furious that the primeval profound monster began to bellow aloud and the vicinity was shaking like an earthquake from its furies.

    The immortal spirit talismans had suddenly exploded again and Ji Yuan''s divine sense was startled that the explosion was 10 times bigger!

    But that was not the end, the momentumpse that was caused by Ji Yuan''s Harker of the Million Swords had also slowed down the mystic profound circle and allowed the Goddess Ai Tina to quickly draw another 2 immortal talismans to fly at the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha again, which exploded on the monster again.

    At the same time Xu Yifei had lifted her fingers rapidly to draw a mystic profound circle and a golden circr halo had immediately formed around her and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Golden Horn Wolly Nympha sted off its sphere of lightning now and the vicinity around Great Divine Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were suddenly exploding with the powerful force of the lightning sts, causing them to disappear in a brilliant white re light.

    Ji Yuan was furious now as he tried to force all his sword intentions to use his 5th Sword Domain which he had never used before.

    The reason why he had never used this before was because he did not know whether it could work and he was unsure if he could actually survive the bacsh to his life force energies in the first ce.

    "Life and Death Sword Domain!"

    He had used his Life and Death Sword Domain on his Harker of the Millions Swords changing them from a normal sword profound energies profound art into hundreds of life force energies swords!

    The golden horn of the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha had suddenly snapped into 2 halves and the monster itself was hurt in the face by the hundreds of life force energies profound swords that shredded through its formidable profound animus.

    Ji Yuan could see that the armored face of the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha was also quickly filled with a sticky coat of glutton skin that was quickly regenerating it at the same time.

    Ji Yuan did not have much hope that his most powerful sword domain could actually damage it severely enough as this was a 8th rank epic profound monster and it was too monstrous.

    His Life and Death Harker of the Millions Swords had also ended in the next 3 blinks of the eyes. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And Ji Yuan was nowpletely exhausted as he overextended his life force energies as he leaned his back against a towering tree for support.

    He turned to look at where the lightning sts were directed and he was quite delighted to see that both Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were both kneeling exhaustedly behind the Divine Shield of the Ai Tina and inside a golden circle of mystic profound energies.

    The Golden Horn Wolly Nympha however did not attack further and instead, it had begun to slither away rapidly.

    Had it decided to attack further, Ji Yuan was sure that they would be in serious trouble.

    He was just amazed that Xu Yifei''s mystic profound circle could offer such a tremendous defensive profound power that it seemed to rival the Divine Shield of Ai Tina; she had actually survived the crazy profound power of an epic 8th profound monster and it was something that astonished Ji Yuan.

    Xu Yifei waspletely exhausted as she had to use all her profound strength to maintain her mystic profound circle and the Divine Shield of the Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was also exhausted as she had hastily disyed two immortal power defensive talismans as a shield to tank against the deadly profound lightning of the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha for Xu Yifei and herself.

    But even then, her defensive profound powers were far weaker than this Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    This was a 1st ss 8th rank primeval profound monster and far stronger than a normal 9th rank primeval profound monster.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had a startled look as she looked at Xu Yifei, "This mystic profound circle of yours is not from our world, am I right? It is an immortal mystic profound circle. How did you manage to learn it?"

    Xu Yifei said with an exhausted look, "Your goddess, I can''t tell you but I can only say that this is taught by my great mistress. The name of this mystic profound circle is called the Traverse Transference Divine Array. I actually didn''t know if it may work and luckily this mystic profound circle was able to transfer away some of the profound lightning away."

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly said, "It didn''t transfer away just some of the profound lightning away but the bulk of the profound strength of the profound lightning away from us. It is a most powerful defensive array that can withstand even the profound might of a 9th cultivation realm immortal."

    Xu Yifei answered with a startled, "I didn''t know¡­"

    She really did not know because this was not the primary use of this immortal profound circle and she had yet to fully master it.

    While they were talking, Ji Yuan had staggered to pick the gigantic broken golden horn that the monstrosity had left behind.

    "This golden horn is from an epic 8th rank, you know. And it may be useful to ovee the lightning tribtion or to master lightning cultivations. Surely, it may worth arge fortune and no one wants to pick it. Haha¡­"

    Fairy Anyang pointed to him: They actually didn''t say that they did not want it¡­

    Xiang Li offered a suggestion: Maybe Big Brother can give them this golden horn because they take the blunt of the profound monster''s attacks?

    Ji Yuan said with a sheepish look: Well, finder''s keeper.

    But he was soon looking at where the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were at.

    And the Goddess Ai Tina was nodding in his direction and she was actually saying, "Thank you, Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan."

 Chapter 814 This Is A Decadent City-State!

    ?

    The Spirit Divine Realm.

    In the city-state of Melnibone, 1 of the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    An old man was staring at the beautiful spiritas maiden that was in front of him.

    He had suddenly run into her in the street and had identally knocked into her.

    This old man was actually the White Sword Monarch and he was actually in this ce to look for Ji Yuan and to warn him of a mysterious enemy called Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    This information was actually told to him by Yun Chi.

    By now, he was already suspicious who Yun Chi really was; it was because the rest of his party had left Yun Chi behind to deal with this Number 1.

    No matter how dense he was previously, he was now beginning to suspect Yun Chi''s real identity now. It was because she could not possibly be stronger than Bai Qianfeng and the one that should be staying behind should be Bai Qianfeng and not Yun Chi.

    However even Bai Qianfeng was willing to let Yun Chi to stay behind.

    And Yun Chi was the one that had warned everyone.

    He was actually not here to take the trial or to earn any Trust Points from the divine consorts in this ce.

    But when he was in this world, he waspletely stunned by the decadent dressing of the maidens here and he was driven mad with anger when he was thinking that his two daughters would be dressed in the very same decadent attire as well.

    He was now hopping mad but at the same time, he was delightfully looking at the white jaded bosoms of this spiritas maiden that was telling him a bit of the history of the city-state here.

    This spiritas maiden exined, "This city-state of Melnibone was once ruled by a divine lord called Elric and he was known as the Womanyer. Legend has it that he had ruled this city-state for 10 000 years before our Goddess Ai Tina and the New Kingdoms has brought him down. He is also the one that have brought the utopia Dreaming City to crash down in burning mes¡­"

    "Old man, you got it?"

    The White Sword Monarch protested weakly, "Actually I am not really so old. Haha!"

    The spiritas maiden frowned when she saw his white hair and wrinkles, "Then how old are you?"

    The White Sword Monarch was actually 10 000 years old but he raised his finger to say, "1 000 years."

    The spiritas maidenughed jovially, "You look so old for 1000 years. I am 5000 years old."

    The White Sword Monarch blinked his eyes as he looked at this young spiritas maiden that looked as like a 16-year-old celestial maiden. "Seriously?"

    The spiritas maiden stared back at him, "I think you look like 10 000 to 20 000 years old for sure."

    The White Sword Monarch saw with his divine sense that this young spiritas maiden was only at the 4th cultivation realm and 4th cultivation realm celestial cultivators cannot live for even 500 years and they would also age terribly too.

    But this lowly cultivation realm spiritas maiden was actually 5000 years old?

    The White Sword Monarch asked weakly, "Maiden, you must have a renown master, am I right?"

    The spiritas maiden giggled softly, "Mistress you mean? Not really. I am toozy to cultivate and they say that my bloodline is too thin to be a ranked spiritas noble. I can''t even use a spirit talisman and can only use a physical talisman. Hehe¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch: ¡­

    The White Sword Monarch: ¡­

    The White Sword Monarch: ¡­

    No cultivation?!

    And she is at the 4th cultivation realm?!

    The White Sword Monarch asked weakly, "Well, I shouldn''t impose on maiden anymore. Or else your husband will be angry with me¡­"

    The spiritas maiden interrupted him with an unhappy look, "Mind your tongue. I am still unmarried."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The White Sword Monarch was stunned, "Such a beautiful maiden and you are unmarried?"

    The spiritas maiden looked perplexed, "What is so strange about this? It is normal here and elsewhere too. Have you gone senile? There are so few men around here. And many of them don''t even have any interest in the maidens."

    The White Sword Monarch blinked his eyes: It is no wonder there are so few men in the city. Does this mean that this entire city is full of unmarried spiritas maidens?

    The spiritas maiden said nonchntly, "Well, farewell anyway¡­"

    "Wait!" The White Sword Monarch panicky said before he gave a manly ahem, "I am looking for the divine consort of this city-state."

    The spiritas maiden took a surprise look at him before she giggled, "Are you thinking of be a champion of our divine consorts? Well, there are 3 divine consorts in this city-state and this part of the city belongs to the judication of the Divine Consort Aiel."

    The White Sword Monarch asked curiously, "What is a champion?"

    The spiritas maiden looked surprise, "You don''t even know what a champion is? Are you from elsewhere?"

    The White Sword Monarch nodded weakly, "I am from a far, far away ce¡­"

    Then he quickly made a fake city-state name. "I''m from the city-state of Jedi. It is extremely far away from this ce..."

    This spiritas maiden looked a little surprised, "You are from the same city as our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan? Do you know him?"

    The White Sword Monarch was surprised, "Erm, I do. Of course, I know Ji Yuan. I trained him haha. I am actually trying to find this little ras¡­ I mean my little Ji Yuan in this city-state¡­ what the name again? Snowy Pavilion City I think¡­ "

    This spiritas maiden smiled, "You''re his master?"

    The White Sword Monarch straightened himself to smile proudly, "Of course I am his old master! Do you think that I am lying to you?"

    This spiritas maiden smiled shyly, "You can call me Maiden Xiaotian if you want to. So what is your name?"

    The White Sword Monarchughed jovially, "You can call me Old Yang."

    Xiaotian smiled, "Actually you don''t look so old now."

    The White Sword Monarch was startled, "I am not?"

    Xiaotian giggled, "Of course not! I was only teasing you earlier. You can tell me more about the heroic deeds of this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan? Come to my humble abode for a spiritual drink and tell me all about him? I''ll also tell you how to get to Snowy Pavilion City too."

    The White Sword Monarchughed jovially, "Sure, let''s go and I will tell you all about the heroic deeds of Ji Yuan. Haha¡­"

    But he was actually thinking quite miserably; I can''t remember if he has ever done a single heroic deed in the past. I can''t tell this Maiden Xiaotian that Ji Yuan is an outer world celestial. Tomb raiding? How he got tortured by me? Attack the other celestial sects? fighting deste monsters? Maybe I just tell her about his epic fights with the low level deste monsters? No wait, if she asks me to describe the deste monsters in detail then she may know that I am not talking about the profound beasts in her world¡­

    Xiaotian on the other hand was now giggling with great delight, "I didn''t expect to meet the master of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan in the streets. Frankly speaking, you look so handsome even with a beard."

    The White Sword Monarch was startled, "I am handsome?"

    But he quicklyughed, "Of course I am handsome. Hoho, Haha¡­"

    Xiaotian was actually thinking: Yuck! Beards are so ugly. Why is he keeping a barbarian beard like the half-humans? Is his half-human blood so strong?

    But because this old man seemed to know the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, so she decided not to let her thoughts be known to him.

 Chapter 815 The Secret Trump Card Of The Perfect Hero

    ?

    Outside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was astonished how difficult it was for her to break the defensive immortal array that was blocking the entrance of the gigantic skulk.

    It took her over an hour of trying until the first wave of 20 cultivators had arrived at the scene with their various flying mounts.

    She was sighing softly to herself, "Ji Yuan, I''m sorry. I hope that you can survive a little longer in there¡­"

    But all of a sudden, she was astonished that she had recognized the male cultivator with the most splendid flying mount which was a drake like beast.

    That male cultivator was actually the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong and he had immediately approached her, "Maiden Chu Lixue, I really didn''t expect to find you here. Why are you here?"

    He had thought that she had been summoned to stay with Ji Yuan in Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei''s tavern.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden asked him with a look of surprise, "I am sightseeing around here when I''ve found this trial opening here."

    That was a lie of course.

    But she quickly asked, "But how did you know that there is a trial opening here? This ce is so far away from Snowy Pavilion City."

    Jiang Guanzhongughed jovially, "I am afraid that is my secret. All I can tell you is that I have a special bloodline that can allow me to sense major profound disturbances from afar. That is why I am the Perfect Hero. I never miss anything important and always get all the best profound treasures in a trial. In fact, I am the top cultivator in myst 10 previous trials."

    Chu Lixue was stunned when she had heard him, as she weakly said. "You are indeed the Perfect Hero."

    But she quickly asked him, "Are you able to break through this defensive immortal profound array?"

    Jiang Guanzhong took a look in the direction of the other 19 cultivators that were all trying to break part this defensive immortal profound array but it was still in futile.

    After a brief silence, he nodded slowly. "I can try."

    He was just pretending to think over a solution but he was actually able to destroy this defensive immortal profound array; it is because he is the Perfect Hero with the most numbers of secret cheats in the entire Celestial Realm.

    But in order to impress the Smiling Divine Maiden, he was just waiting for the 19 cultivators to exhaust themselves.

    He also knows that the Smiling Divine Maiden was now desperately waiting for someone to break this defensive immortal profound array.

    But where is Ji Yuan?

    Is he waiting around here or already inside?

    But he would not ask the Smiling Divine Maiden because it was not the time to arouse her suspicious about Ji Yuan.

    He still wants to maintain his good impression in her eyes after he had almost screwed up previously.

    He took a look at his surroundings with his divine sense and soon he discovered a sniff of Ji Yuan''s profound signature with his secret cheat in his soul sea.

    And then he followed this sniff of profound signature and it had discovered inside this gigantic skull.

    Then he began to smile in secret.

    "This must be the legendary Secret Oracle Gate and inside, you may ask the Great Oracle of the Delphi any one question. However, this question is only restricted to the first cultivator that can find the Great Oracle of the Delphi."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was surprised that the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong even know this much about this trial even though he was not from the Spirit Divine Realm.

    But she did not deny it or admit that he is right.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had actually learnt about the characteristics of this trial from Spirit Concubine Su Hong who sought to trick him with her honeb words.

    But he was just too smart for her and he had turned the table around her by being the Perfect Hero and caused her to be in awe of him instead.

    And this had loosened her tongue as she told him all the things that she knows about the Spirit Divine Realm.

    When this Spirit Trial is almost over, he has already decided to kill this Spirit Concubine Su Hong off for daring to offend a Perfect Hero like himself, even though she was now a converted believer in him.

    Only he, Jiang Guanzhong the Perfect Hero is the only inheritor of the True Devil God and he is also the New God of the 6 Immortal Divine Realms.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong waited until the 19 cultivators were almost exhausted and even the second wave of 38 cultivators that hade were also helpless in front of this immortal defensive profound array, before he stepped forward.

    He purposely said with a secret smile as he took out his saint-step divine sword, "Let me try. Maybe I can break this defensive profound array for all of us."

    "Are you joking with us?"

    "We have so many of us and yet we can''t seed but he alone can seed?"

    "He does have a beautiful face though¡­"

    "Men are useless¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    "He is only boasting¡­"

    "He is just 1 and we have 57 of us here¡­"

    "Look. He is even using a divine sword. He must be a half-human¡­"

    "He is stupid. He should break thisplicated defensive profound array with the knowledge of the spirit intrinsic runes. Or else this will only be futile and it will only strengthen this immortal defensive profound array¡­"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong ignored all of them as he raised his divine sword.

    All of a sudden there was arge golden spirit talisman that appeared along the length of his divine sword, startling everyone including the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    "He is able tobine the use of spirit talisman with his divine sword?"

    "This is impossible¡­"

    "He is the son of the heavens, a genius among the geniuses¡­"

    "He looks so awesome now¡­"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was now looking quite awesome when he noticed the awe that he had inspired.

    And of course, he nned to awe the Smiling Divine Maiden and to bed her eventually; this is all part all his ns.

    The hundreds of intricate runes that were on his giant spirit talisman were now slowly igniting 1 by 1 by a bright glow.

    Many of the spirit cultivators were so captivated by this intrinsic talisman that they were trying to copy it with their memories but the sequences were soplex that they were lucky enough to remember even 10% of it.

    The intricate runes that were on this spirit talisman were suddenly moving and re-arranging itself into a more profound spirit talisman after all the runes had been lit.

    This stunned all the spirit cultivators that were looking at it for they had never seen any spirit talisman that could re-arrange itself after the spirit talisman had been formed and the re-arranged spirit talisman was even much more formidable than the initial spirit talisman!

    Now they werepletely lost!

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had suddenly loosened his profound spirit talisman with a swing of his divine sword and he imbued it with hisbined profound power of his spirit talisman and sword into one.

    He was smiling in secret because these spirit cultivators would never be able to copy this awesome spirit technique of his because it was onlyplicated and they could not use a divine sword in the first ce.

    The gigantic spirit talisman flew into the immortal defensive profound array immediately and with a blinding light, it shattered the profound strength of the almost invisible immortal defensive profound array into nothingness.

    With a most awesome smile, the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong said to everyone. "We may enter the trial now."

    Even the Smiling Divine Maiden was forced to admit in secret that the cultivation of this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was indeed superior to Ji Yuan.

    In a fight between Ji Yuan and the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong, Ji Yuan may not win at all.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and all the rest of the 57 cultivators quickly entered into the mouth of the gigantic skull.

    When the Smiling Divine Maiden was inside the trial, she saw that they were all in a dense forest and the trees here were as tall as half a mile and even the trunks of the trees were at least 30m wide.

    She was dismayed that even the flying mount that she had brought along could not fly in this ce and she could feel an intense pressure that was continuously sapping away her profound strength.

    Also, she hadpletely lost Ji Yuan''s profound signature in this strange ce and she could no longer tell where he was now.

    All the 57 cultivators were quickly scattered into the dense forest hoping to find some rare spirit nts or profound treasures. With a little luck, they may even find the Great Oracle of the Delphi!

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong smiled to the Smiling Divine Maiden, "Maiden Chu Lixue, please follow me. This dense forest is filled with all kinds of dangers. I know precisely the way on how to avoid the dangers and we can even reach the Great Oracle of Delphi in no time."

    Although the Smiling Divine Maiden did not want to follow this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong but she had wanted to reach out to Ji Yuan quickly as he may be in grave danger. So when the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had told her that she would be able to avoid the dangers that were presented here and even reached the Great Oracle of Delphi in no time, she nodded and said, "Alright then. Please lead the way."

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong disyed a subtle curled smile when the Smiling Divine Maiden had agreed to follow him.

    +1 Trust Points with the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    He was already thinking to himself: So Ji Yuan, your Chu Lixue is going to spend 3 days with me. How do you feel about this?

 Chapter 816 Goddess Ai Tina And Xu Yifei

    ?

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were now in another section of the dense iron woods.

    Although they were exhausted from their fights with the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha, they were not seriously injured.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan had a feel weird feeling as he followed the Goddess Ai Tina.

    It was because he had sensed no animosity from her during their fight against the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha and she looked quite determined to protect Xu Yifei from harm.

    This was a battle that she could easily have caused the both of them to perish while she could take the opportunity to flee.

    But instead, she had fought hard and had even used her trump cards.

    Or rather, she had even given one of her best trump cards the Divine Shield of Ai Tina to Xu Yifei.

    That divine shield alone can cause Ji Yuan several big headaches if she uses it for herself as it may create an opening for her against him when he is attacking her.

    As they traveled together, It felt a little weird to him that the Goddess Ai Tina would suddenly ask Xu Yifei to tell her more about her family background.

    As Xu Yifei did not feel that there was anything wrong in this. Moreover, she could feel strongly that the Goddess Ai Tina had protected her with her 8th immortal defensive spirit talismans during theirst battle as well.

    And she was someone that could repay a debt in kind.

    So, she answered, "My mother consort is a very beautiful maiden. She had me when she was 11 000 years old after she had fallen in love with a scum, which was my father. He abandoned her to court a divine consort. Maybe my father is a celestial scum after all. I do not know..."''

    There was a woeful look in her enticing eyes and this made Ji Yuan even more guilty; this was all the reason more why he should not reciprocate her feelings for him. The end result was very obvious to him because he would definitely abandon her just like her father did. And then he would be the same detestable scum in her eyes.

    Better to be a scum now than a real scumter.

    Xu Yifei said woefully, "My mother consort was killed by the rebels while protecting me when I was very young. She could not fight back the rebels because my grandfather had once forbidden her to cultivate and he had put a restriction in her soul sea¡­"

    "In order to avenge my mother consort, I have to be a divine consort to fight the rebels. Luckily for me, my scum of a father also has a daughter by the name of Tang Manni through my step-divine consort mother Tang Li. My step mother consort Tang Li is also a kind mother and she treats me like her very own daughter and she had given me all the necessary cultivation resources to cultivate along with my step-sister Tang Manni."

    "But eventually she was chosen for her eventually ascension to the Greater Spirit Realm. To this day, I still miss her so much. And I actually hope to see her one day again in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Then she turned to look at the Goddess Ai Tina with a smile, "Do you know my step mother consort Tang Li?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded and she was trembling lightly; she has naturally known Tang Li because she is really a great beauty. In fact, she was chosen by her six masters for ascension and they had rigged her chance to be selected by the Spiritas Tower.

    In the Greater Spirit Realm, Tang Li has now be an eternal harlot of the 6 masters and it is all because of her sins.

    Xu Yifei was delighted, "Then how is she? I''m sure that my Sister Tang Manni will also be delighted to have news of our mother consort."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly and her eyes were emotional, "She is well. And she is also cultivating good. She is also popr too in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Xu Yifei was delighted, "This is good. I hope to see my mother consort one day too. And thank you too for eradicating the rebels for my soul of my real mother consort."

    The Goddess Ai Tina did not know what to say to her; it was because she had eradicated the rebels so that she could gain for herself the free cultivation resources that the divine consorts would be giving herter and not because she wanted to do any good.

    But indirectly, she had somewhat avenged for the death of her dead daughter.

    But she was suddenly angry when she had suddenly thought of something, "Who is this grandfather of hers? Why did he put a restriction on your mother consort to prevent her from cultivating? Your mother consort should have a heaven-defying talent!"

    Xu Yifei was startled by this outburst.

    "I don''t know the name of grandfather. But that''s what my mother consort had told me. Maybe he isn''t even my real grandfather. My mother consort never talks about her parents because she said to me that she didn''t know them at all. As for how she knows grandfather put a restriction on her, this was told by a servant to her who had saved her from the attacks of a divine lord in the past. But unfortunately, this servant had perished shortly after as her wounds were too severe."

    Xu Yifei added with a woeful look, "My mother consort has always said that she is an orphan."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was suddenly sobbing tearfully and she had hidden her face by turning away.

    Xu Yifei was stunned that the Goddess Ai Tina was weeping over her family tragedy.

    Ji Yuan who had been listening to Xu Yifei''s ounts on her family heaved a heavy sigh, "Isn''t this obvious? Your great divine consort, she is your grandmother."

    Xu Yifei was stunned, "This is impossible¡­"

    She did not have the chance to finish her sentence because the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly embraced her and she was weeping aloud, "My grand daughter Yifei¡­ I''m so sorry¡­ this is all my fault¡­ I didn''t want to abandon¡­ my daughter who is your mother consort¡­"

    Xu Yifei was stunned and her lips were trembling, "The Goddess Ai Tina is¡­ the mother of my mother consort¡­"

    "Achilles lies to me¡­ he must be the one that put a restriction on my daughter¡­ he is too vicious!"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly as he shook his head while walking away, "I''ll go and scout ahead first. The two of you should have a little chat first¡­ before we continued on our way."

 Chapter 817 The Second Trial In The Secret Oracle Gate

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had returned from his ''scouting'' several hourster, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were still in each other''s embrace; they were still talking quietly and their countenances were still wet.

    It was obvious to him that they were still being emotional.

    He did not exactly go too far away as this dense iron forests were too dangerous with many weird spirit nts and the lurking presence of profound beasts.

    Ji Yuan knows it better than picking any spirit nts here even though they may be valuable; it is because there is a symbolic rtionship between the spirit nts and profound beasts here. Trying to approach or even plucking a spirit nt in this ce will sure to provoke reactions from all the profound beasts in this vicinity.

    And he was not too greedy and also unprepared to fight the dangers that he had purposely caused due to his own greed.

    Moreover, it was also getting quite dark as the bright lights from the heavens were slowly disappearing.

    Maybe it was due to the monstrous height of these trees that were as tall as a mountain that he could not even see the sun in this ce. Or maybe there was none in the first ce.

    "It is too dark now. We should continue on our way tomorrow instead. In the meantime, we should cultivate to regain our profound strength from today''s battle."

    With that, he had leapt high above an iron tree and stay out of sight from them in the shadow of a giant tree branch that was facing the other way.

    Although they could not see one another, he knows that the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were still talking quietly to each other throughout the night, as they seemed to have endless things to talk about.

    Ji Yuan wrapped himself in the white and blue cloak that Xu Yifei had given him; this was indeed a good profound spirit treasure that could protect him against the elements and he could also cultivate faster with this spirit cloak.

    But he could not shake off the thought that the Goddess Ai Tina was trying to kill him; it was because he could feel her killing intents for him and Xu Yifei in the tavern that day.

    It seemed to him that Xu Yifei may be safe for now.

    But not him.

    He thought: She is probably only trying to make use of me to reach the Great Oracle of Delphi before disposing of me¡­

    Xiang Li said to him: Big Brother, I think you think too cautious! She has a good soul!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang also agreed with Xiang Li as she said: I have to agree with Xiang Li on this¡­

    Ji Yuan interrupted with an unhappy frown: Anyang and Xiang Li, I am now cultivating but aren''t the two of you supposed to be cultivating as well? What are the results of cultivating on the Golden Natal Divine Pearl?

    No reply.

    He frowned: Xiang Li? Anyang?

    They sure can flee fast when he is asking them a crucial question.

    The next day at the first break of dawn, Ji Yuan saw the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei again. They were looked ready to move on now.

    Xu Yifei was smiling at Ji Yuan and she looked blissful; it was because of Ji Yuan''s outspoken nature that she had learnt that the Goddess Ai Tina was her grandmother.

    Ji Yuan merely nodded and walked awkwardly in front of them since he had nothing to talk with the Goddess Ai Tina and he was too awkward to look at the enticing Xu Yifei.

    As they walked together, all this while the Goddess Ai Tina was looking tenderly at Xu Yifei as they walked together.

    Last night Xu Yifei had told her some of her memories of her mother consort and her life while the Goddess Ai Tina had shared some of her glorious past.

    After several hours of navigating, they had finallye to a ridge and below was an abyssal sea of pink mists.

    They were separated by the other side for a good 100m and it was impossible for them to jump across the ridge to the other side. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan saw that there were 2 portals that were in front of them and a ck stele.

    When they extended their divine senses into the ck stele, it told them that one of the portals will lead them to the side of the ridge while the other one will send them to the bottom of the pink mists.

    There was actually a riddle on the ck stele that told them as much.

    The portal on the left is a door that leads to the truths of life and this is the way.

    The portal on the right is a door that leads to the illusions of life and this is the way.

    Pick one of the doors. One will lead you to the other side while the other will lead you to the bottom of the pink mists.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "We have a 50/50 chance to pick the correct portal. Should we go another way? This is too big of a risk at 50% chance to take."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled as she said to Ji Yuan, "Which portal will you pick?"

    Ji Yuan took another look at the riddle before he shrugged his shoulders to say weakly, "I will rather not pick."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "Give it a try."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly at her; he was in no hurry to die.

    Ji Yuan finally said with a heavy sigh, "Even though the left portal looks like the real deal by saying that this leads to the truths of life and this is the way. But I think that if there is life then there must death. So, the portal to the left is not my choice. I am a cultivator. So, I will rather pick the second portal to discover the illusions of life."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "You have indeed picked the right portal. Come. Follow me."

    With that she had already dashed into the portal on the right.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Wait a minute!"

    But he quicklyposed himself to say, "So this is the answer?"

    The reason why he had said that was because it did not sound feasible for a immortal goddess to gamble on her immortal life.

    Xu Yifei held onto his hands to say gently, "We must trust the Goddess Ai Tina. If there is anything amiss, I will hold onto your hands."

    JI Yuanughed weakly as they dashed into the portal that was on the right at the same time.

    In the next instant, they had now appeared in the circle of tall iron trees and the Goddess Ai Tina was smiling wryly as she awaited them.

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly as he looked at the Goddess Ai Tina, "This is a little reckless. Luckily, this is the correct answer."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled instead, "Don''t worry. That is the correct answer to that riddle and we have ovee the second trial. Now we have to find the third trial."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled, "That is also a trial?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina nodded, "Not all trials here require you to fight against the primeval monsters in this ce. Some trials test your wisdom and intelligence. And some trials test you on your wits."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I would rather fight a primeval monster. Haha¡­"

 Chapter 818 An Uneasy Peace

    ?

    In a section of the maze-like iron forests of the Secret Oracle Gate.

    It was almost the end of the second day when Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina had run into an ambush of 5 6th rank primeval profound beasts.

    Ji Yuan had quickly dispatched of 2 of the primeval profound beasts and so did the Goddess Ai Tina with the explosions of two of her spirit talismans.

    Thest primeval profound beast was dispatched by Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Haha, so this should be the 3rd trial, am I right? They attack us and not the other way around."

    The Goddess Ai Tina gently shook her head, "This isn''t a trial. There is a challenge at all."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he tried to protested, "6th rank profound beast! They can rip us to pieces anytime if we are not careful. Moreover, there are 5 of them. And this isn''t considered a trial?"

    But the Goddess Ai Tina ignored Ji Yuan and continued on her way.

    Xu Yifei smiled at Ji Yuan as she gently pulled him along, "The Goddess Ai Tina isn''t the one that set the challenges of the trial. It is pointless to protest to her."

    Ji Yuan disyed a silly look as he said bitterly, "Right¡­"

    He had merely taken a minute to dispatch 2 6th rank primeval profound beasts. Frankly speaking, this was a little too easy for him.

    It seemed that he was now much stronger than before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    No wonder in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, all the senior celestials would say to the young celestials. "You aren''t a true celestial if you have not been to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth yet. In there, you will be tempered by the dangers and trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Never offend a golden celestial that have been to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!"

    Ji Yuan thought: Maybe they should change this saying to, never offend a golden celestial that have been to the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth instead. Haha¡­

    It was no wonder why his Jiajia had told him that he must enter the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and be tempered by it, if he wants to be useful to her.

    Jiajia going to be very surprised when he had emerged from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and looking so much stronger.

    It was because he has grown much stronger than he could anticipate especially when he got some secret aids from Bai Qianfeng and Yun Chi, who are immortal cultivators.

    "You know, what if I am sick or something? Then I won''t be in a tip top condition to defeat these profound beasts." Ji Yuan said solemnly to Xu Yifei as they walked behind the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina turned around and said to Ji Yuan, "High level cultivators like yourself will never get sick."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he protested aloud, "Maybe my cultivation core is damaged or something, you never know."

    The Goddess Ai Tina turned to Xu Yifei to say, "I think this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan really talks too much."

    Even Xu Yifei looked a little awkward by Ji Yuan''s protests.

    "Master Ji Yuan, let''s talk about something else instead?"

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "I''m just trying to right this injustice for ourselves. This Great Oracle of the Delphi is too elusive. We have been lost in here for 2 days now."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly at his reply and said quietly, "You have a kind soul¡­"

    The reason why she had said that was because the Goddess'' Tear would never pick a cultivator to be with if that cultivator''s soul is not a kind soul.

    And also, because she had heard from Xu Yifei that Ji Yuan had helped her to regain her cultivation.

    She was really startled that Ji Yuan would be able to help Xu Yifei to repair her cultivation core, since he was not a spirit cultivator or exhibited a strong talent in profound healing.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xu Yifei did not want to hide this from the Goddess Ai Tina and told her that in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, there is a Golden Natal Divine Pearl that is rich in profound spiritual aura and it is this Golden Natal Divine Pearl that has aided her recovery.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was stunned; this Golden Natal Divine Pearl is an immortal profound treasure that she had heard of in the old legends and rumors.

    It is said that there is a golden pearl that can repair even the cultivation core of the cultivator, no matter how severe it is.

    It must be this Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    She asked Xu Yifei how he had got it.

    Xu Yifei could only say that it was a gift from Ji Yuan''s immortal master.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was quite startled that Ji Yuan actually has an immortal master.

    On hindsight, there was definitely plenty of mysteries around Ji Yuan.

    It is because he has a pair of emperor-step divine swords, two sword spirits, a formidable 9th rank spirit animus, is a sword deity, has an immortal scabbard, has the immortal Golden Natal Divine Pearl, an immortal master and even the Goddess'' Tear.

    She wondered what Ji Yuan''s desire or wish would be.

    To be the strongest cultivator?

    To be a genius of the geniuses?

    It was because the Goddess'' Tear would be able to grant it to him as a profound treasure before disappearing.

    Just like many years ago, her Goddess'' Tear had disappeared into a white and blue divine shield to safeguard her against the fierce profound attacks of the divine lords.

    The profound powers of the Goddess Tear were actually not absolute but it offered a ray of hope. Against the truly powerful, it was but a power immortal profound treasure.

    She wondered if she were to strike against Ji Yuan with the absolute death soul talisman of her 6 masters, what would Xiang Li the Goddess Tear reacted to it?

    Maybe the Goddess'' Tear would even transform into a protective ward to protect Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    Is it 100% or partial?

    If it isn''t 100%, then this would be very troublesome for her to kill him.

    But any partial soul attack could also cripple Ji Yuan''s cultivation.

    It is because thebined profound soul attacks of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods are almost absolute; for they are the most powerful immortal spirit cultivators in the entire Greater Divine Realm and ancient beyond imagining.

    She actually did not want to kill Ji Yuan now because this Ji Yuan is a benefactor of Xu Yifei but there is a restriction in her soul sea to force her to kill Ji Yuan before she returns to the Greater Spirit Realm.

    But it is either she dies or he dies.

 Chapter 819 The Dark Goddess Of Destiny

    ?

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had been lost in the maze-like iron gigantic forest for 2 days now.

    They did not even see the sight of any of the other 57 cultivators and there should be even more cultivators that havee to investigate the legendary Secret Oracle Gate by over the past 2 days by now.

    The Divine Smiling Maiden said unhappily to the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong, "Are you sure that we are heading in the right direction?"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong returned a weak reply, "This forest is a little bit tricky but at least I am able to get us out of the severe dangers in this ce¡­"

    But all of a sudden, he was smiling as he spotted a rainbow flower that was in a clearing of flowers, "Isn''t this the Rainbow Carnation? Judging by the size of the Rainbow Carnation, this must be at least 300 000 years old. This Rainbow Carnation will be able to boost my cultivation by quite a bit and is also the perfect amalgamation for some of my most powerful profound pills. We are in luck!"

    When he had said that, he had already shed forward to try to pluck this Rainbow Carnation.

    "Maiden Chu Lixue, I just need you to provide some support just in case there will be some dangers¡­"

    But all of a sudden, he had noticed that the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was gone.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong: ¡­

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong: ¡­

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong: ¡­

    The reason why Chu Lixue had agreed to go along with the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was because she wanted to reach Ji Yuan as soon as possible. But she had found out that this he was only interested to obtain profound treasures for his own cultivation over the past 2 days.

    And he did not care if he would run into any dangers because of this because all the possible dangers were easily settled by him alone.

    Most importantly, he was slowing down his speed of navigating through the maze of iron forests by constantly checking for the sights of rare spirit nts and telling her how useful it would be to advance his cultivation.

    And he kept telling her, "I will help you if you are willing as well."

    He was hinting for her to follow him from this day onward.

    Chu Lixue was not interested in obtaining the spirit nts for her cultivations or to sell them; she was only here to look for Ji Yuan and worried that something may have happened to him.

    If it was Ji Yuan, he would almost never pick a roadside spirit flower by being super cautious and would continue on his way.

    It was not to say that Ji Yuan may not be able to defeat the profound beasts that were guarding the spirit nts but he did not want to do anything unnecessary.

    That was actually what she liked about Ji Yuan; he was less interested in cultivating and more interested in his romantic notions.

    And for this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong, he had thought nothing about plucking a 300 000 year old Rainbow Carnation for his own needs.

    A 300 000 year old spirit nt that would be gone just like this, all thanks to his selfishness.

    Does he have any idea how long it takes for a spirit nt to grow to the age of 300 000? And the number of ecosystems that depend on it in this dense iron woods?

    In the past 2 days, this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had been plucking spirit nts left and right that were hundreds to thousands of years old to further his own perfect cultivation.

    And Chu Lixue was quite displeased with his selfishness; he is just like the other cultivators that will not stop to reach the very top using whatever means that they can do.

    That was the reason why Chu Lixue had joined the Death God Mingwang in the first ce as she was quite disappointed in the selfishness of the celestial cultivators who are mostly interested in gaining more and more cultivation wealth and treasures to further their cultivation or personal power.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong thought to himself: After I''ve plucked this Rainbow Carnation, I will look for Maiden Chu Lixue. This won''t take me too long right?

    He had already reached out to pluck the Rainbow Carnation and he had to exercise all his profound strength; it was because the spirit roots of this Rainbow Carnation were firmly rooted.

    Also, it may look small and vulnerablepared to the towering iron trees in this ce but it required a high cultivation profound strength in order to uproot it.

    But as the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was pulling the Rainbow Carnation, he was quite startled that the entire soil beneath him was loosening like a quick sand.

    In fact, the entire ground seemed to be alive and he could suddenly sense that he was standing in the mouth of a gigantic monster that had concealed its presence sopletely that he was unable to detect it!

    A 300 000 year old spirit nt will radiate an invisible profound animus for miles around, feeding the many powerful primeval profound monsters that requires it as their spiritual sustenance.

    In exchange, the profound beasts will protect a spirit nt when such a symbolic rtionship is established.

    The older a spirit nt, the more powerful the profound beasts will be.

    And right now, the divine sense of the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong had told him that this profound monster below him was an epic 9th rank profound monster!

    He tried to loosen his hold on this Rainbow Carnation but to his dismay, he found out that his hands were struck and even his profound strength was being slowly drained away by this Rainbow Carnation.

    "What? This Carnation Flower can even fight back?!"

    But luckily for him, he is the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong and he has several cheats to use to escape from his current dilemma.

    A blessed son of the heavens like himself would naturally not be killed in this manner and even his misfortune would bring upon him a great fortune instead.

    Therefore, he was not too worried as he disyed his spirit animus to fight back against this Carnation Flower and the profound monster below him.

    But all of a sudden there were tens of gigantic ape-like profound beasts that were at the 7th rank and they were dropping down from the trees around. Soon they were howling and attacking him with their profound fists.

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong quickly thrown tens of his physical talismans around him in a desperate measure to keep these fierce profound apes at bay. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And soon there were huge profound explosions that were caused by his talisman and he had even pieced a ape with his divine sword.

    As the Perfect Hero, he was always prepared for the worst possible oue.

    One of the profound apes had ripped apart his left arm as it had attacked him on his blind spot.

    But the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was not too worried; it was because he had been in even worse battles and had always survived.

    He may have lost an arm but he would be able to find a stronger arm somehow to rece his lost arm.

    After all, he had the golden halo of a MC and he would not die even in the direst situations.

    All of a sudden, he had discovered that he was able to jump out of the pit amidst the profound explosions that were caused by his talismans even as a group of 30 profound apes were trying to attack him from all sides.

    Fortunately for him, these profound apes were too big and they could not attack him all at once.

    With a push of his profound strength, he had leapt out of the pit.

    Perhaps leaping was not the right word to use.

    It was because he had suddenly discovered that he had lost his his lower bodypletely and he was horrified!

    And then he hadnded with a loud stump on the ground!

    This could not be happening to him!

    He did not feel any pain when his body was being swallowed up by the 9th rank epic profound monster¡­

    But even now, he could not believe that he could actually die.

    Perhaps, an immortal goddess would drop by and to save him?

    His silence musing was quickly answered.

    This was the power of his plot armors!

    All of a sudden, a veiled maiden in ck had suddenly walked in front of him and she had a beautiful long dark rod with a golden circle that was decorated with 9 precious stones.

    She appeared to be smiling as she said with great delight, "I have finally found the 9th destined cultivator with the hero destiny and I can finally use his soul to finallyplete my profound rod of destiny."

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong said panicky to the veiled maiden in ck, "Maiden¡­ your goddess, please save me!"

    Perhaps this was his goddess savior¡­

    The veiled maiden in ck chuckled softly, "Didn''t you hear what I''ve just said? I am going to take your soul away from you to be in eternal darkness. Don''t worry, you won''t die. You have a most die-hard destiny but unfortunately, you have met me in this ce. My destiny is to collect the souls of the die-hard heroes. You are not my first victim but my 9th and final. You should feel proud that you will be helping this dark goddess to fulfill your eventual destiny. Heehee¡­"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong took a look at the 30 profound apes that were suddenly obedient in front of this strange veil maiden in ck and he had the most uneasy feeling.

    And also, the numerous tenacles of the 9th rank epic profound monster that were rising from above the ground may be still rattling loudly but did not make any attack

    He wanted to fight back with his remaining trump cards but he had already lost his two legs and an arm.

    So, he could only ask weakly, "Who are you?"

    The veiled maiden in ck answered nonchntly, "I am the Dark Goddess of Destiny, the devourer of all good destinies and I am here to collect your destiny."

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was panicking shouting, "No wait! Wait! There is a someone with a better hero destiny than myself. He is Ji Yuan the Great Spiritas Hero!"

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny pondered for a while, "The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan?"

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong saw a ray of hope as he said panicky, "That''s right. Ji Yuan is his name. In front of him, I can''t even be considered a true hero. So he does have a better destiny than me¡­"

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny smiled as she cut him short, "You are indeed right¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had raised her dark rod by the end of its sharp edge and had pieced through to his chest!

    "But I am still going to take away your soul. Unfortunately for you, he isn''t my target because he doesn''t have a perfect destiny like you do."

    The Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong could feel and see that his golden body was being sucked dry by the dark rod of this terrifying dark goddess and he could not believe that today his destiny would be ended for no reason at all.

    When the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was just a dry husk and his soulpletely absorbed into the dark rod of the Dark Goddess of Destiny, she said slowly. "Don''t me me. me yourself for overying your destiny due to your own greed. In case you do not know, you can only overy your destiny only 9 times."

    She took a pleased look at the brilliant 9 colored precious stones that were engraved in a golden circle on her dark rod, "I''ve finallypleted my divine rod of destiny. Finally I can cease to be the Great Oracle of Delphi and is freed."

    With that, she had disappeared into the darkness.

 Chapter 820 Inside The Sacred Temple Of Delphi

    ?

    Early in the third day inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate, Ji Yuan soon found the ruins of a temple in a forest clearing and he was shouting excitingly about this to the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei about this.

    The tform of this temple waspletely ruined and there were hundreds of tall pirs all around this ce, mostly broken or standing alone.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was startled as she shed to Ji Yuan with a perplexed look, "We have found the Great Oracle of Delphi?"

    Ji Yuan was also startled, "But I thought that you have said that we have onlypleted two challenges?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina disyed a puzzled look before she looked at the entrance of this ruined temple, "Let''s go in first."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had a look of excitement in her enticing eyes; it was because the Great Oracle of Delphi was considered sacred by the Spiritas and it had answered several legendary questions.

    "So, this is the Sacred Temple of Delphi where the Great Oracle lives."

    They soon entered into the entrance of the ruined temple.

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that instead of more ruins, the inside of the temple looked more like a beautiful temple withvish white celestium pirs and even the hallways were made of white and gold celestium.

    The Goddess Ai Tina could see his astonished look and she smiled to him, "The outside is merely an illusion if the Great Oracle wishes. No primeval monsters will actually dare to attack the sacred temple because this is her domain."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Not even that 8th rank epic worm? I mean 1st ss 8th rank horned worm."

    The Goddess Ai Tina nodded slowly, "Not even primeval profound monsters that are more powerful than it."

    Ji Yuan had a look of disbelief in his golden eyes, "This Trial Spirit is indeed powerful."

    The Goddess Ai Tina took a look at him before saying quietly, "The Great Oracle isn''t a Trial Spirit or any Fairy Spirit. She is an immortal."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "She is an immortal?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina said quietly, "Right. And much more ancient than I am."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Then she is a friend of yours in the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina shook her head, "I''ve never seen her in the Greater Spirit Realm. Therefore, I can surmise that she isn''t there or she is an immortal of just the Secret Oracle Gate. But either way, no one in the Greater Spirit Realm knows about the Great Oracle of Delphi."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he looked at the beautiful hallways that were decorated with all kinds of heroic sculptures along the way, armed with all kinds of weapons.

    "Well, she doesn''t look like a Spiritas."

    Xu Yifei asked curiously, "Master Ji Yuan, why do you say so? Of course, she is a Spiritas Goddess."

    Ji Yuan pointed at the many male and female statues and said, "Spiritas don''t use weapons, right? But these statues do. Also, some of the men even have beards. I think she is a human goddess instead."

    Xu Yifei was startled as she took a careful look at the statues.

    At first nce, she had thought of these statues as champions of the divine consorts but on hindsight now, the Great Oracle of the Delphi has existed even before the Spiritas Tower.

    Then she turned to the Goddess Ai Tina for an answer.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said softly as she continued to walk rapidly, "Maybe the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is right that the Great Oracle of Delphi is a human goddess. In the past, the Spiritas do not live in the cities but in the forests. Only the humans live in the walled cities. But slowly, after the divine lords have defeated the humans and taken them as ves, they started to dwell in their cities¡­"

    She paused to say solemnly, "But whatever the origin of the Great Oracle of Delphi is, no one really knows. No one will waste a valuable question to ask about her origin, especially when we are only allowed to ask only 1 question. Do you agree with me?"

    Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei were both nodding;

    The Goddess Ai Tina gave one more warning, "And be respectful in front of the Great Oracle of Delphi. Do not try to attack her¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud as he interrupted, "Haha¡­ I am not so stupid to do something like attacking her¡­"

    "Respectful also means not to talk too much in front of the Great Oracle of Delphi." The Goddess Ai Tina interrupted him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Do I talk a lot? I feel that I am just like any normal cultivator¡­"

    He then asked the Goddess Ai Tina again, "How do we know that we are the first? What if someone else is able to reach the Temple of Delphi earlier than us? After all, we have taken 3 days. Then we won''t be able to ask the Great Oracle of Delphi any question, am I right?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled instead at this question, "Only the destined will be able to find the Temple of Delphi to ask their question. Therefore, we are indeed the first."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes before answering, "Oh well¡­ we are the first then."

    As they made a turning in the hallway, they spotted a ray of light from the hallway ahead.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to them but she sounded more like warning Ji Yuan, "We have reached. Be respectful."

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently to himself, "This Great Oracle of Delphi must be an ugly hag to hide in solitary in this ruined temple for tens of thousands of years¡­"

    Xiang Li warned Ji Yuan: Keep your voice down. You don''t want the Great Oracle to hear you, Big Brother.

    Fairy Anyang was also agreeing: The Goddess Ai Tina is right. You really talk too much. Have you forgotten how you got punished by thest 2 Trial Spirits for talking too much?

    Xiang Li giggled: At least 5 Trial Spirits havemented that Big Brother indeed talks too much¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned to them: Howe the two of you are here?!

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother is meeting the Great Oracle of Delphi. So, we don''t want to miss this great adventure of yours and we can be useful here too by offering you our godly advices.

    Fairy Anyang giggled too: You may need someone to talk with too.

    Ji Yuanughed in his soul sea as he answered them: Well, I can''t disagree with that. Follow me then!

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina had soon entered the lit hallway and into arge white hall that were decorated with tens of torches that brightly lit this great hall.

    Ji Yuan could sense profound energiesing from these torches and he knows that these torches were not any normal torches.

    In front of them, a statuesque and regal great beauty of a maiden in white robe sat on her white throne. She looked almost albino but had red rosy lips and she had beautiful flocks of silver hair.

    In her right hand, she carried a long dark rod with a golden circle on top of it that was decorated with nine beautiful precious stones.

    Ji Yuan was stunned by her great beauty and this was not the old hag that he was half-expecting to find in this ce.

    The Goddess Ai Tina bowed with her hands politely, "Great Oracle of Delphi, we havee to ask you a question."

    Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei were also bowing with their hands politely.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled and said in her beautiful voice that could fill the entire hall, "Wee to my Sacred Temple of Delphi."

    Then she added with a curled smile, "Ai Tina, we have met again after so many thousands of years. I won''t ask you how are you because I already know the answer to that."

    The Goddess Ai Tina did not reply and there was a woeful look in her eyes.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi continued with another smile. "You must be wondering about your third challenge and how is it possible for you to find my Sacred Temple of Delphi so quickly, am I right? Well, your third challenge actually starts now."

    The Goddess Ai Tina, Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei were all startled.

    Their third challenge actually starts now? What does she mean by this?

 Chapter 821 The Third Challenge (1)

    ?

    The Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly announced with a smile, "Let the third challenge begins now."

    Ji Yuan had unsheathed the emperor-step divine sword Xiang Li from his immortal scabbard and asked, "Erm, so where is the monster for this challenge?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei were also curiously looking around their surroundings to look for an answer.

    Their third challenge actually starts now? What does she mean by that?

    Eventually Ji Yuan, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were all looking at the Great Oracle of Delphi and they were all asking silently, "Where and what is the third challenge?"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled as she pointed at the Goddess Ai Tina, "I know what you are seeking for. But there are 3 of you and I don''t want to answer just your question. Therefore, I like to pose a challenge for the 3 of you. Naturally, only if you are able to ovee my challenge then you can be the one that can ask me the question."

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily, "Can we just forfeit and just allow 1 of us to ask the question."

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled, "I know that you will ask that. Unfortunately, no."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "How do you know that I will ask you this? I have just only thought of this."

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled sardonically, "So this is your question? I can answer youter if this is your question."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Goddess Ai Tina stepped in to ask, "So what is the challenge of the Great Oracle?"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled before she pointed her long ck rod at the Goddess Ai Tina, "The question that you intend to ask can only be answered if you¡­"

    Then she pointed at Ji Yuan with her long ck rod, "¡­can kill this man here."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Kill me?! What the heck?!"

    He was suddenly disying a defensive stance against the Goddess Ai Tina now; it was because he had somehow expected the Goddess Ai Tina to try to kill him.

    Even Xu Yifei was startled as she thought: Master Ji Yuan really did not lie to me?

    Ji Yuan asked the Goddess Ai Tina, "So you will kill me to seek an answer for your question?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded as she looked coldly at Ji Yuan, "That''s right. I am actually here to kill you. Now I have all the more reason to see you dead. If you are killed by me then I shall have the question that I seek."

    The question that she wanted to ask was the identity and location of the True Devil God.

    Xu Yifei had immediately shed in front of Ji Yuan and she had spread her hands protectively over him, "Master Ji Yuan is my benefactor. You can''t kill him. Also, your question¡­"

    She had wanted to mutter out that she had actually known the answer to her question but she could not; it was because she had promised to keep the identity of the True Devil God a secret.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to Xu Yifei, "My granddaughter, for the good for all the souls in the Spirit Divine Realm, he must die. Don''t stand in my way!"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "So the third challenge is to have us fight against each other. Brilliant, brilliant."

    The Great Oracle of Delphi yed with her long dark rod as she smiled in Ji Yuan''s direction, "That''s right. How smart you are. When you have won your battle, then I shall answer the question that you have posed to me."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I''ve actually changed my mind about asking you about thatme question already."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to Ji Yuan with a soft sigh, "Although I didn''t want to fight with you but this moment has finallye. Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, are you going to hide behind a maiden and refuses my call for a duel with you?"

    Ji Yuan was also sighing softly as he gently said to Xu Yifei, "This battle is between the two of us. It is none of your business. The Great Oracle has setup this challenge so that there will be only one of us that can survive through this battle to ask her a question."

    Xu Yifei shook her head at Ji Yuan''s reply and she looked at the Goddess Ai Tina instead, "I really don''t understand. Why must you kill Master Ji Yuan. Is this question so important to you? Maybe the True Devil God isn''t as bad as you said to be."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly, "It doesn''t matter if the True Devil God is good or evil. The most important thing is that I will be able to find the True Devil God. Do you understand? My granddaughter Yifei, there are many things that I cannot tell you now but you will surely understand in the future. Come, step aside and let us have our duel."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Xu Yifei shook her head as she slowly looked at the Great Oracle of Delphi who was still smiling like the purest maiden in white in her throne.

    "Can''t you all see? The Great Oracle is putting forward this challenge to us so that we will all fight with one another. She doesn''t care for the oue at all."

    The smiles that were on the Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly ceased and she had stopped swinging her long dark rod.

    Xu Yifei continued mncholy, "I don''t know what her purpose is for wanting to make the Goddess Ai Tina to fight with Master Ji Yuan but this is wrong. All for the sake of one question?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly and she was also mncholy when she saw the woeful look that was on Xu Yifei, "This question is very important to me. It concerns the fate of the Spirit Divine Realm and the Greater Spirit Ream. Therefore, Ji Yuan must die."

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "I think I must die even before this, am I right? For another reason?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded, "That is right. You must die for another reason. However, this is something that I cannot disclose to you."

    It was because Ji Yuan had killed the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and the special restriction in her soul core requires for her to take action against Ji Yuan or dies.

    Xu Yifei was startled as she muttered, "Master Ji Yuan must die for another reason? What is it?"

    Then she burst into tears, "Why must the two of you fight with each other? Have you forgotten how we have fought together in the past 3 days? Aren''t we happy together as a party?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina sighed softly, "It was just a temporary truce. I actually have the intention to get rid of him in this ce."

    Xu Yifei was stunned and then she had remembered what Ji Yuan had told her about his bad feelings, "And me as well too? Right?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina was taken aback but she quicklyposed herself to nod slowly, "It was true previously but not any longer. You are my granddaughter. I won''t kill you."

    Xu Yifei was shocked, "Why wrong did I do? Why must you kill me?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina did not dare to regard her eyes on Xu Yifei, "I am afraid that I can''t tell you the reason why too. If you want to know the reason why¡­"

    Then she had turned to look at the Great Oracle of Delphi, "You have to ask the Great Oracle instead."

    The Great Oracle of Delphi was smiling nonchntly and she was ying with her long ck rod again as she answered, "I can help the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to answer your question as well. But you must also fight to kill Ji Yuan. Whoever can kill Ji Yuan gets my answer."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Kill me and get the answer? Can I kill myself then?

    But Xu Yifei answered firmly as she looked at the Great Oracle of Delphi, "I won''t fight Master Ji Yuan. So, you can forget about this."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to Xu Yifei, "Child, step aside. This is none of your business. I don''t want to put you in a difficult position. But this fight is inevitable between the two of us. If Ji Yuan kills me, then he shall get to ask the Great Oracle a question. But if I win, I get the answer to my question. This is a fair exchange."

    Xu Yifei shook her head firmly and said, "I know of a solution for all 3 of us. And it is a solution that not even the Great Oracle of Delphi knows."

    The Goddess Ai Tina: ???

    JI Yuan: ???

    The Great Oracle of Delphi appeared to be startled before sheposed herself to smile coldly, "I am afraid that there are no questions with answers that I did not know."

    Xu Yifei answered coldly, "Well, there is one now. Because you obviously don''t know what is in my mind."

 Chapter 822 The Third Challenge (2)

    ?

    Xu Yifei looked away from the Great Oracle of Delphi and said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "I know the answer to your question. And I can tell you if you are willing to spare Master Ji Yuan''s life."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was stunned, "You do?"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly stomped her long ck rod on the celestial floor and there was a thunderous profound shockwave in the entire hall that almost knocked down Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The subtle profound power that she had just disyed was at the 9th immortal positioning and if she used her full profound strength, it could possibly go even higher.

    "You are lying! How dare you mutter lies in my Sacred Temple!"

    Xu Yifei disyed her profound animus to keep herself steady while stealing a meaningful nce at Ji Yuan, "Are you willing to gamble that I am lying?"

    When the Great Oracle of Delphi saw that Xu Yifei had stolen a look at Ji Yuan while she posed a challenge for her, she withdrew her profound strength and smiled instead, "I am just testing you. Of course, I know everything. But whether the Goddess Ai Tina believes in you is another matter."

    Ji Yuan could not resistmenting, "I think this Great Oracle looks like a high level chatan. Maybe we shouldn''t trust her toopletely instead. If you think about this, she needs several hundreds of years or even thousands of years to answer one question. She doesn''t sound like an expert to me¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were shocked that Ji Yuan wasmenting so disrespectfully to the Great Oracle.

    "Master Ji Yuan¡­" Xu Yifei was pleading for him to stop.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly turned very cold and her piecing golden eyes were staring at Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan continued nonchntly, "¡­ Also she has arranged for her challenges toe to us instead of the usual norm. Maybe she is spying on us in the dense iron forest instead. That is why she already knows the question that we will be asking. As for those with difficult or impossible questions, she conveniently refuses to give them the challenges or the opportunity to reach her Sacred Temple of Delphi¡­"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly lifted her long dark rod toward Ji Yuan and a powerful profound st had exploded over Ji Yuan, who reacted just in time by blocking it with his divine sword Xiang Li and also with all his profound strength.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he blocked her ranged profound attack, "I guess that the Great Oracle really does not know that she will be in a furious rage this day. Therefore, she isn''t as all-knowing in the first ce."

    Although he was grinning but his arms were trembling lightly; although ranged profound attacks were weaker than melee profound attack but this Great Oracle of Delphi possessed a powerful profound power that could easily overpower him.

    Luckily for him, it was just a single 9th immortal profound attack and he was already prepared for an attack since he was just baiting her to make his move.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi: ¡­

    He is only testing me?!

    She forcefully smiled, "Of course I know. I am just trying to put you in your ce for being disrespectfully to me."

    Then she turned to the Goddess Ai Tina to say, "What are you waiting for? Kill him."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said coldly to Xu Yifei, "Child, make way for me. You can''t trust the words of any man. They are all unworthy of your trust!"

    Xu Yifei shook her head, "No, I trust Master Ji Yuan. He is worthy of my trust. And he is my benefactor. How can I not trust him? Do you want me to be an ungrateful and untrustworthy person?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to her and her eyes were woeful, "This is his trap. First, he gains your trust and then he will betray your trust. Listen to me, child. I have experienced it before. I trust him so much and I even have a child with him. Yet, he pretended to help me again and again, even saving my life. You do not want to know how he has betrayed my trust and he has even hidden a most nefarious n for me! Men are simply not worthy of your trust!"

    Xu Yifei could see that the eyes of the Goddess Ai Tina were hurtful and even her heart was woefully hurtful.

    She asked gently, "What is it? You¡­ can confide with me?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina replied coldly, "It is pointless now to talk about the past. Step aside now!"

    The truth was, she could not tell anyone about the Greater Spirit Realm due to the restrictions that the 6 Supreme Divine Lords had ced in her soul core.

    Xu Yifei shook her head, "Even Master Ji Yuan can see that the Great Oracle is baiting us. Can''t you see? Also, I dare not lie to you. I really know where the True Devil God is. If you spare Ji Yuan now, I will tell you where the True Devil God is."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Goddess Ai Tina asked Xu Yifei, "You really know where the True Devil God is?"

    Xu Yifei said firmly, "By the Great Beyond Goddess, I swear that I know. However, I cannot tell you who the True Devil God is now. But I can promise you that I will let you know once the trials of the Spiritas Tower have ended."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said woefully, "You don''t understand, do you? Then you have to join the trials of the Spiritas Tower as well. This is not something that I want you to do¡­"

    "But you are the one that forces me to join the trials of the Spiritas Tower, didn''t you? I had refused you but you have insisted." Xu Yifei quietly said.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was silent; this was the truth.

    She could only weakly say, "This is because I didn''t know that you are my child."

    Xu Yifei was suddenly trembling and there were tears in her eyes.

    This startled both Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina¡­

    Xu Yifei''s voice was trembling with her tears, "500 years ago, just before I should have ascended but failed, I''ve sensed profound darknessing from the Spiritas Tower. This shouldn''t be, right? If the Greater Divine Realm is firmly under your control. Why is that you are now forbidding me to join the trials of the Spiritas Tower now? Why is that it has be wrong for me to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm to be with you? Why did my grandfather put a restriction on my mother consort to prevent her from cultivating? Who is this Achilles? Is he my grandfather? Why are you looking for the True Devil God? Can you exin to me?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina was startled by the questions that were asked by Xu Yifei, "I''m sorry. I can''t answer you."

    Xu Yifei slowly said, "Is it because you don''t want to answer me or you can''t answer me¡­"

    Then she slowly said, "You can''t answer me because a higher power put a restriction on you, am I right?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina: ¡­

    Xu Yifei said with a resigned voice and her wet tears were dripping down onto the floor, "I''ve almost forgotten that someone with a restriction on them will not be able to answer this question. Even if they can, the answer will always be a no."

    She turned to look tenderly at the Goddess Ai Tina as she wept softly, "Please allow me to fight alongside with you when you''ve returned to the Greater Spirit Realm. You are not alone. Together, we can have at least a hope."

    The Goddess Ai Tina had fallen to the floor and she was weeping woefully, "It is impossible to win¡­"

    She could not even mention about her 6 masters because of the special restrictions that were ced in her soul core.

    "Ji Yuan, you have won. I''m not going to kill you anymore. Are you going to kill me then?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little awkward as he watched the weeping Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina, "Why should I want to kill you when you have given up on killing me?"

    Then he turned to the Great Oracle of Delphi to ask, "Actually I don''t care about your challenge at all. We don''t have to kill anyone right?"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi slowly nodded and she was smiling wryly, "No matter, you have already passed my challenge. Therefore, you are allowed to ask me a question of your choosing."

    But she was also thinking: You have dared to call me a chatan! When I am out of this ce and freed of my shackles, you won''t even know how you are going to die, even if you are the True Devil God. You must know that it is very bad to expose someone in the face of the others, especially to a vengeful goddess like the Dark Goddess of Destiny.

    And how does this Xu Yifei knows who is the True Devil God in the first ce when she doesn''t even have the answer herself?

 Chapter 823 Ji Yuan, What Is Your Question?

    ?

    The ''Great Oracle of Delphi'' was now smiling at Ji Yuan, "You may ask me a question now."

    But in her heart, she was cursing this Ji Yuan for calling her a chatan.

    While she is known by the Great Oracle of Delphi by many but her real name is the Dark Goddess of Destiny. And Destiny is her true name.

    And she was trapped in this ce for the past 100 000 years.

    She actually did not know the identity of the True Devil God.

    This was a question that not even the Great Beyond Goddess was able to know.

    So how would she know?

    She had spied on the Goddess Ai Tina and knows that this was indeed the answer that she was trying to sought from her and this was also the answer that she was not prepared to give.

    That was why she had decided that in order to make her question a valid one, she had to first kill Ji Yuan.

    She had watched the battle imageries of their fight against the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha and she had quickly estimated the strength between Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    On paper, the Goddess Ai Tina was stronger since she was also an immortal cultivator and this Ji Yuan was weaker.

    However, she started to hold this Ji Yuan favorably when the Goddess Ai Tina had given her divine shield away.

    She saw that this Ji Yuan had the Goddess'' Tear with him and this was the deciding factor. In dire times of need, the Goddess'' Tear would be able to materialize a hope for this Ji Yuan to ovee the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Since the disparities between them were notrge, she had naturally bet that this Ji Yuan would emerge victorious in the end.

    That was the reason why she had setup the third challenge in such a way to request for the Goddess Ai Tina to kill Ji Yuan, knowing very well that she had a possibility of 90% chance of failing against the Goddess'' Tear and without the Divine Shield of Ai Tina to aid her.

    And of course, she would also secretly intervene when necessary.

    In this manner, she would appear to be generous with her question but yet she was also denying the question from the Goddess Ai Tina.

    But this Ji Yuan has actually called her as a chatan?!

    In what way is she a chatan?

    She simply could not believe that he has insulted her most, most noblest attempt to portray herself as the Great Oracle.

    She speaks nothing but the whole truth!

    And her answers have no imperfection to it!

    What an insult that this Ji Yuan has dared to put on the hat of this Dark Goddess of Destiny.

    Well, I am going to screw your destiny after this and gives you my seven ques of darkness.

    This would be fun to see the miserable fate of this Ji Yuan as he slowly fallen into the deep abyss of his ill-fated destiny.

    Maybe she would even appear in his dying moments just to tell him that this was the price for calling her a chatan!

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the Great Oracle of Delphi and he was smiling bitterly, "Well, I don''t know what to ask of you."

    He was actually distracted by the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei who were weeping in each other''s embrace.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled, "Well, you must because this is your just reward. Maybe you want to improve your cultivation methods? Or you want to know the mysteries of your cultivation? I can give you an answer. I know everything."

    Ji Yuan looked at the Great Oracle of Delphi with a weak chuckle, "You know. I still think that you are a great chatan. Haha¡­"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi was trembling as her smiles ceased slowly.

    He had dared to call me a ''Great Chatan''?!!

    Xiang Li was telling Ji Yuan in his soul sea: Big Brother, your Xiang Li has a bad feeling all of a sudden. Why don''t you just ask your question and begone from this ce? This beautiful big sister at the throne doesn''t look too friendly to you.

    Ji Yuanughed as he replied to Xiang Li: Your feeling isn''t as good as mine. I did tell you that the Goddess Ai Tina is going to kill me, right? But you did not believe me. See! I am proven right. As for this Great Oracle, I didn''t sense any killing intents from her so I should be safe for now.

    Fairy Anyang weakly said: My lord. She is a high level immortal goddess and she may be able to conceal even her minute killing instincts with her high level immortal cultivation.

    Ji Yuanughed: Nonsense! I can even sense killing instinct from the Goddess Ai Tina and she is an immortal goddess.

    Xiang Li warned him: She is extremely high level immortal and she can kick your ass if she is serious.

    Ji Yuan frowned a reply: I didn''t offend her, am I right?

    Xiang Li and Anyang both shook their heads as they answered together: Nope!

    Ji Yuanughed: Then I''ve nothing to worry about. Haha¡­

    The Great Oracle of Delphi asked Ji Yuan again, "So what is your question?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I doubt that you can really answer my question so I am going to ask you another question instead¡­"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi smiled as she interrupted him, "Try me."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "You say try you but this isn''t my real question. So I wonder who do I really love?"

    The Great Oracle of Delphi chuckled softly, "This is too easy. You will love the one that is closest to your heart. This is my answer for you¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Isn''t this a little too vague? You really sound like a chatan. Also, you say try you but this isn''t the question that I am actually seeking to ask."

    The Great Oracle of Delphi replied coldly, "Sometimes my answer may be cryptic and it is up to you to figure it out."

    JI Yuan grinned, "I am actually half-expecting this answer from you. But like I say, this isn''t my real question."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Great Oracle of Delphi hummed coldly, "I am inclined to be generous today as I am in a good mood. So, what is your real question? This is yourst chance."

    Ji Yuan raised his golden eyes to regard hers as he said, "I will like to know everything about you. Surely, this is not difficult for you right? No more cryptic answers, alright? If not, this question doesn''t count at all."

    The reason why he had asked her this was because he still believes that this so call ''Great Oracle'' was a chatan and he doubted that she could really answer him in a meaningful way.

    The Great Oracle of Delphi was startled by this question as she blinked her eyes¡­

    It was because no one had ever asked her about herself.

    She muttered with a lost voice, unlike the beautiful alluring voice that had resounded earlier. "I am not always called the Great Oracle of Delphi¡­"

    "¡­I was imprisoned here for the past 100 000 years¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were startled when the Great Oracle of Delphi had suddenly said that she was actually imprisoned in this ce for the past 100 000 years.

    "¡­ You may call me the Dark Goddess of Destiny¡­ Destiny is my name¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina were suddenly looking at one another silently: This is her real title and name?!

    The albino immortal goddess had suddenly raised her long ck rod and she was smiling with great delight, "From this day onward, there is no more Great Oracle of Delphi and only the Dark Goddess of Destiny. It is because I''ve finally freed myself of this ancient prison¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted as he asked curiously, "Who can imprison a mighty immortal goddess like yourself?"

    "Naturally it is the Great Beyond Goddess," the Dark Goddess of Destiny said unhappily.

    The answer startled Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly when he had heard her, "What exactly did you do tond yourself in this state."

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny softly said with great mncholy as she caressed her long ck rod, seemingly lost in her own world. "There are 6 Great Immortal Divine Realms; they are the Great Beyond Realm, the Demonic Deste Realm, the Ninth Heavens Realm, the Greater Spirit Realm, the Dark Entropy Realm and the Great Abyssal Realm."

    "Since I am the Dark Goddess, can you guess which of the 6 Immortal Divine Realms do I belong to?"

    "I am the Dark Goddess of the Dark Entropy Realm¡­"

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny was mncholy¡­

    When the Great Beyond Goddess had queried her on the whereabouts of the True Devil God, she had lied on the whereabouts of the True Devil God but her deceit was quickly discovered.

    That was the reason why the Great Beyond Goddess had imprisoned her as a punishment for her deception.

    Naturally she was unwilling to answer Ji Yuan why she hadnded herself in this state.

    She did not mean to deceive the Great Beyond Goddess. At that time, her rod of destinies had not yet beenpleted. Or else she would be able to answer the Great Beyond Goddess.

    But now her rod of destinies has finally beenpleted.

    Not only could she unravel the profound mysteries of the immortal arrays of her prison to escape from it but she could also perform a true divination to answer the Great Beyond Goddess now.

    But this true divination would cost her rod of destinies 1000 years to be usable again.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had called her a chatan just like this Ji Yuan.

    Hmph!

    From this day onward, this goddess is once again the Dark Goddess of Destiny again and there would be no mysteries that were be too difficult for her to know.

    Maybe one day, she may even be greater than the Great Beyond Goddess herself.

    Naturally, she was not going to use her most precious rod of destinies to find the whereabouts of the True Devil God but to further her own immortal cultivation.

    True Divinity!

    No, Beyond True Divinity!

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny was nowughing to herself and she was looking coldly at Ji Yuan, "Do you think that this goddess is going to tell you everything about myself? Fat hope!"

    When she had said that; there was a vortex that had suddenly appeared on the celestium floor, causing the startled Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina to be sucked into it.

    Ji Yuan shouted, "What the heck is this thing that is sucking us into it?!"

    The Goddess Ai Tina caught hold of Xu Yifei and said calmly to her, "Child, do not panic. Now that the question has been asked, we are being cast out of the legendary Secret Oracle Gate now."

    This was actually not new to her.

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny smiled coldly, "Begone from my secret realm. Farewell forever."

    Ji Yuan shouted rmingly at her just before he vanished into the vortex with the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei, "You''re a great chatan! You¡­didn''t even¡­answer my question¡­"

    At this moment, there were also hundreds of simr vortexes elsewhere as the cultivators were kicked out of the Secret Oracle Gate.

    All of a sudden the Dark Goddess of Destiny was clutching her heart painfully and she had stumbled onto the ground weakly.

    She was gasping painfully, "This... there is more than one restriction that the Great Beyond Goddess has put in me?!"

    Her fingers were quickly moving rapidly as she tried to divine the cause of her pain, before she gasped with great shock. "I must find this Ji Yuan again and... answer his question truthfully... I am not a chatan goddess..."

 Chapter 824 Ji Yuan, Your Question Is Stupid!

    ?

    The mountain sides of the Great Primeval Spirit Mountains were filled with hundreds of cultivators, mostly female spiritas that were thrown out by the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.

    This included Ji Yuan, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei.

    Above them, the gigantic skull was quickly disappearing from the bottom up even as rippling profound shockwaves could be felt throughout the vicinity, causing balloons of ice and thick mists to envelop the vicinity.

    The trial of the legendary Secret Oracle Gate had finally ended.

    When the hundreds of cultivators saw that the Goddess Ai Tina was among them, they quickly bowed respectfully even though more than half of them were actually not from the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    The news that the Goddess Ai Tina was back to the Spirit Divine Realm had quickly rattled throughout the city-states of the Spirit Divine Realm and had filled many of the female spiritas with great excitement.

    The hot question that was in the minds of everyone was, who among them had managed to pay homage to the Great Oracle of Delphi and had obtained an answer from her?

    Naturally, most of the spirit cultivators had suspected that it was actually the Goddess Ai Tina because the first two waves of cultivators had encountered an immortal profound defensive array that was already in ce and the only immortal that they could see was actually the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to them, "The trial is over. Go back to where you belong."

    Many of the cultivators bowed with their hands respectfully before leaving excitingly for they had finally seen the legend of their Spirit Divine Realm today.

    A most peerless and coquettish maiden had suddenly shed to the Goddess Ai Tina, Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan.

    She was actually the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    "Senior sister!" Ji Yuanughed jovially when he saw her.

    He pretended to ask, "Senior sister, why are you here? What a surprise to see you in this ce. Haha¡­"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled coyly for she was quite relieved to see that Ji Yuan was alive and well.

    But she was also puzzled: Did this little rascal lies to me? I have been so worried for him for the past 3 days and he is alive and well?

    She raised her hands together to bow respectfully to the Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei before taking a look at Ji Yuan again, "What a coincident to have met you in this ce."

    She felt a little awkward when she had said that because it was obvious that she had been following them since she was actually staying in the same tavern as Ji Yuan.

    She took a quick look at her surroundings to see if the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong was around but she could not see or sense him.

    He had probablynded on the other side of the mountains and had quickly departed.

    She quickly turned to ask Ji Yuan with a soft chuckle, "So did you manage to find the Great Oracle of Delphi?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Yes, we did."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled in the direction of the Goddess Ai Tina even as she asked Ji Yuan, "As expected of the Goddess Ai Tina. I shouldn''t be surprised that she is the one that have found the Great Oracle of Delphi. Is it convenient to share with me her question?"

    Before Ji Yuan could answer her, the Goddess Ai Tina had said nonchntly, "Naturally it is convenient. It is because I am not the one that have asked the question to the Great Oracle of Delphi."

    Ji Yuan had a look of awkwardness on his face, "Actually I am the one that poses the question to the Great Oracle of Delphi."

    Chu Lixue had a look of surprise on her divine countenance, "Why should you ask the question? Do you even have a good question to ask the Great Oracle of Delphi in the first ce?"

    "Put it this way. I''ve won the right to ask the question of the Great Oracle of Delphi." Ji Yuanughed rather sheepishly.

    "Which is?" Chu Lixue had a most curious look as she asked Ji Yuan.

    "This Great Oracle of Delphi is actually a chatan. I''ve asked her to tell me everything about herself. She didn''t even tell me anything meaningful about her background before she kicked me out of her Sacred Temple of Delphi."

    Chu Lixue had a look of disbelief, "What? Why should she want to give you anything about her background? Her? I get it now¡­"

    She was now frowning unhappily, "This Great Oracle of Delphi must be a great beauty, am I right? And you have actually tried to befriend her by asking about her background. It is no wonder that you got kicked out by her halfway. How could you ask her this stupid question when there are so many questions to ask of her?"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I told you already. This Great Oracle of Delphi is a fake. She can fool the others but not me. Even a 3 year old knows how to give a cryptic answer like she does. If you don''t believe, you can ask the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue turned to look at the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei with a weak look.

    Xu Yifei said weakly, "It isn''t too nice to call the Great Oracle of Delphi a chatan or a fake. She is a sacred goddess of the Spiritas. So, we should be more respectful to her. The Great Oracle can only give cryptic answer. It is up to the wise to decipher it."

    "You may have wronged the Great Oracle of Delphi." The Goddess Ai Tina was also bitterly saying. "She didn''t lie to me on the urrence of the Secret Oracle Gate. She is right."

    Chu Lixue was quietly looking at Ji Yuan and it seemed like she was saying to him: Well? What do you have to say now?

    Ji Yuan bitterly smiled to himself: She is the mistress of the Secret Oracle Gate. Naturally she can choose to reveal to you the timing of urrences for the Secret Oracle Gate."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said nonchntly to everyone, "Let''s go now. We have no business here anymore. Let me fly all of you out of this ce."

    Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and Chu Lixue were all nodding; they were only too d to leave this god forsaken mountains.

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere under the heavy debris of the frost and ice stones, an extreme albino beauty with snowy hair was also buried in a pathetic manner.

    She was none other than the Dark Goddess of Destiny and she could not believe what had happened to her.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had warned her in the past that should she continued on her deceptions in the future, there would be an even more severe punishment that was waiting for her.

    And today, it had finallye true.

    Around her neck was a golden cor and this was no ordinary cor but a ve cor.

    She was now horrified.

    She had a bacsh to her cultivation core simply because she did not feel like answering fully on her background to this Ji Yuan and now, she was forced to wear a ve cor to serve this celestial cultivator?

    A mighty dark goddess and divine ruler of the Dark Entropy Realm would actually be a ve to a lowly celestial cultivator?!

    If the other immortals would to learn about this, she would be aughing stock in the 6 Immortal Divine Realms!

    She would humble herself before this Ji Yuan?!

    Never!

    But she weakly withdrew her haughty look; the longer that she is away from her ''master'', the weaker she will be.

    She must not let this Ji Yuan knows that he is her master and she is his ve.

    She needs to trick him into removing her ve cor from her instead.

    "Curse you, Great Beyond Goddess. May you never find the True Devil God. Even if I know where he is with my rod of destinies, I''d never tell you anything." She cursed weakly before she coughed out a bout of golden blood.

    "This stupid Ji Yuan. Can''t you ask this goddess a simple question instead of asking something asplicated as my background?! I am so close to being a True Divinity and yet you have screwed me¡­"

    The main reason why she had given this Ji Yuan the right to answer a question from her was because she had thought that he was a simpleton and his question was going to be a breeze for her to answer.

    She had never thought that he would ask a stupid question such as her background instead of a difficult cultivation question.

 Chapter 825 Return To The Tavern

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had returned to the tavern with the Goddess Ai Tina, Xu Yifei and Chu Lixue, it was nearly dusk.

    To his surprise, he saw that the other 4 divine consorts Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun were all waiting for him.

    And when they saw him, there was an excitement in their eyes.

    They quickly greeted the Goddess Ai Tina before they crowded around Ji Yuan.

    "Master Ji Yuan, how is your trip?"

    "Did you run into any dangers?"

    "Sister Yifei, I didn''t forget about you¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga, you are finally back now! Do you know that I''ve been waiting for you for the past 3 days?"

    "Did you manage to find the Great Oracle of Delphi inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate?"

    "Did you manage to find any other profound treasures along the way?"

    "Why is the Smiling Divine Maiden with you?"

    "Yuan Beluga, you have gone with your senior sister? Then why didn''t you bring me along as well?"

    Ji Yuan was literally bombed by questions.

    Chu Lixue sighed softly when she saw the affectionate looks that were on these divine consorts and she quietly walked away to the other end of the tavern.

    This isn''t fair!

    While she is trying to get her 100 Trust Points with her cold and nonchnt patron Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, her patron was disying her affections for only Ji Yuan who is not even her champion!

    What else can she do but to walk away?

    Themotions caused by the divine consorts had also attracted Xiao Muhan who had rushed down the stairs with a look of excitement as heughed jovially, "Rascal Ji Yuan, you survive your trip? Why don''t you tell me about your trip then? Hahahaha..."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he tried to answer them one by one, "Actually it is just the three of us. My senior sister isn''t with us. We just happen to meet along the way, that''s all."

    This may not be the whole truth but this seemed to calm down the envious looks that were on these divine consorts.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei took a guilty look at her Sister Tang Manni and this was noticed by the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was also appraising Tang Manni with a woeful look.

    Like her mother consort Tang Li, Tang Manni was also an extremely beautiful maiden and she would be even more beautiful when her cultivation realm had increased; she had indeed inherited the astonishing great beauty of her mother consort Tang Li.

    In fact, she looked like a little mirror image of her beautiful mother consort Tang Li.

    If Xu Yifei is not taking part in the Spiritas Tower then the 6 Supreme Divine Gods will surely pick Tang Manni as a recement.

    In fact, if Xu Yifei had not regained her cultivation realm, then it is likely that the Spiritas Tower will rig in favor of Tang Manni to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina quietly walked to Tang Manni and said gently to her, "Tang Manni."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled that the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly called out to her and she quickly stammered to say, "Your goddess, is there anything that I can do for you?"

    Themotions around Ji Yuan had also stopped; it was because the other divine consorts were also curious to know why the Goddess Ai Tina was talking to Tang Manni.

    This included a curious Ji Yuan as well.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly to her, "Divine Consort Tang Manni, since your sister is participating in the Spiritas Tower this time round, I hope that you can wait another 500 years to take part in the Spiritas Tower."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was stunned when she had heard this.

    And she quickly fell to her knees and her alluring eyes were bleary, "My Goddess Ai Tina, it is my dream to join my mother consort in the Greater Spirit Realm. Finally, I''ve this chance and how can I possible miss this opportunity to be with my mother consort?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina sighed softly, "I do know your mother consort Tang Li. It is also her wish that you stay in the Spirit Divine Realm for the time being."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was stunned, "This is also my mother consort''s wish?"

    She had a look of confusion in her eyes as she turned to look up at Xu Yifei who was quietly nodding to assure her that this was the truth.

    In front of the other divine consorts, Xu Yifei did not dare to acknowledge the Goddess Ai Tina as the mother of her mother consort.

    The Goddess Ai told her a half-truth, "If you happen to take a seat among the 6 ascended positions in the Spiritas Tower and ascend as an immortal divine consort, you will be no help to your mother consort. Rather you should try to consolidate your cultivation foundation first and be a stronger immortal in the future. You must know that once you are an immortal, it is actually extremely difficult to advance in your immortal cultivation. You don''t want to be a lowly immortal, do you? Compare to your Sister Xu Yifei, you know that your cultivation is stillcking, am I right?"

    Tang Manni was quiet; she is indeed inferior to her sister in many aspects and she has no hope of ever attaining as a great divine consort. That is why she has to depend on the Spiritas Tower to ascend to the Greater Divine Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled to her as she disyed a cultivation slip from her spatial ring before letting it float in front of Tang Manni.

    "This is my spirit cultivation. With this, you may even be a great divine consort in the future. Do not disappoint me."

    Tang Manni was shocked as she stared at the cultivation slip that was in front of her, "This is too valuable¡­ I wonder why the Goddess Ai Tina chooses to bestow this favor upon me?"

    Not only was Tang Manni shocked to see that the Goddess Ai Tina was bestowing her personal cultivation slip to her but the other divine consorts Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and Dongfang Xin were also startled as well.

    Why is the Goddess Ai Tina showing such a special favor upon Divine Consort Tang Manni?

    Naturally the Goddess Ai Tina had her own special reasons and she was not inclined to reveal her purposes and these divine consorts did not dare to ask her themselves.

    Even Tang Manni did not hope that the Goddess Ai Tina would actually answer her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina naturally did not want to reveal that this was to deny the 6 Supreme Divine Gods from indulging and to ravage her as their eternal harlot. Such was the fate of all the divine consorts that had ascended in this manner through the Spiritas Tower.

    But over the years, due to the increased cultivation realm and knowledge of the Goddess Ai Tina, she had secretly corrected many of the ws in the spirit cultivation of the Spiritas.

    "Once you have be a great divine consort, you can share with the others on your spirit cultivation. Do not rush it! Cultivation is not something that you can hasten."

    Tang Manni had bleary eyes as she held onto the cultivation slip into her bosoms and she was muttering, "Mother consort, I have to wait a little longer before I can see you again¡­"

    Xu Yifei also had a bleary look when she had heard her Sister Tang Manni and she began to look the other way¡­

    Ji Yuan took a look at Tang Manni and he sighed secretly in his heart when he remembered that day when she had wept in her vi because of his hurtful words; this Tang Manni was really a most sentimental maiden.

    He did not need to ask the Goddess Ai Tina to know by now that something woeful had happened to her mother consort. He could not ask too because it was just like Xu Yifei had said, it was likely that there was a special restriction on her and she had descended to the Spirit Divine Realm for a special purpose that could not be revealed.

    He immediately concluded that this Spiritas Tower was highly suspicious. In fact, the Goddess Ai Tina did not seem eager for Xu Yifei to participate in it now that she knows about their bloodline connection.

    And when the Goddess Ai Tina prevented Tang Manni from entering the Spiritas Tower, his suspicions were confirmed.

    All of a sudden, there was a shadow at the door way of the tavern and a beautiful albino maiden with a long ck rod that had a golden circle of nine precious stones was seen walking slowly inside the tavern.

    This albino maiden was pale looking and even her hair was the same shade of white as her peerless countenance. But there was no hiding her eminent beautiful presence nor her luminous golden eyes that seemed to pierce the hearts of everyone to reveal the dark secrets of their hearts.

 Chapter 826 The Dark Goddess Of Destiny Is Here To Help

    ?

    Just as the attentions of everyone was upon Tang Manni, a great beauty of an albino maiden with a long ck rod had suddenly appeared at the entrance of the tavern.

    She looked extremely regal and her eminent regal presence was unsurpassed even though the Goddess Ai Tina also had a regal presence in this ce.

    There was no colors on her stunning countenance or blemish on her almost nude body and she was as white as her clothing.

    This caused to look like she was a single white color except for her golden eyes but at the same time, there was also a profound radiance around her but her cultivation realm was unknown, making her to look more like a holy maiden.

    Although the truth is that she is actually a dark goddess of the Chaos Race that dwells in the Dark Entropy Realm. In fact, she can be considered as a chaos goddess as well.

    However, she was reluntant to call herself a chaos goddess since the Chaos Lords and Chaos Goddesses of the Dark Entropy Realm had an infamy reputation as the harbringers of chaos in most of the cultivation realms.

    She had identally let it slip that she was from the Dark Entropy Realm to Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina. That was also one of the reasons why she did not want to reveal more about her background to Ji Yuan.

    Her appearance startled the Goddess Ai Tina, Ji Yuan, the 5 divine consorts, Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan, Maiden Flower Ju and the dozens of female followers of the divine consorts in this tavern.

    It was not because they had recognized her but because there was no indication of any profound fluctuations when she had suddenly appeared.

    Nothing at all!

    But for Ji Yuan, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina, they had naturally recognized her to be the Great Oracle of Delphi.

    But why did she appear in this ce?

    The Goddess Ai Tina was immediately respectfully as she bowed with her hands, "Your Great Oracle, we wee your presence to grace upon us."

    Even Xu Yifei was giving a respectful hand gesture to greet this maiden.

    When the other 4 divine consorts and the dozens of female followers saw that even the Goddess Ai Tina was bowing respectfully with her hands, they quickly did the same as well even though they had no idea who this maiden really was.

    Great Oracle?!

    Is she what they are thinking?

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he saw her: Why did shee here for? She follows us?

    Destiny had indeed followed Ji Yuan; It is not hard to track him down especially when she has a ve cor that can track down her master as long as they are in the same realm.

    Xiang Li giggled to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I think it is because she likes you.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Don''t talk rubbish, Xiang Li. I think she is probably here to kill me for offending her earlier.

    Fairy Anyang said weakly: My lord, you should learn not to talk too much sometimes¡­

    The albino maiden made a subtle effort to ensure that her ve cor was concealed by her new spirit dress before smiling to greet everyone, "I am the Great Oracle of Delphi but I will prefer to be known as the Great Oracle Destiny from now onward."

    All the listeners in this tavern that have never seen the Great Oracle of Delphi were all shocked; the Great Oracle of Delphi was actually in this ce?!

    Ji Yuan could not resist asking, "Why brings the all-knowing Great Oracle here?"

    He was actually being sarcastic.

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny smiled wryly; she had actually prepared her script before showing up.

    "Usually, it is improper for me to appear in front of all of you. But¡­"

    She had suddenly pointed her long ck rod at Ji Yuan, "¡­ but I havee to warn you of a great misfortune that ising your way."

    Ji Yuan really did not know whether tough or cry by her reply as he weakly said, "I know that I''ve endless misfortunes since I am a cultivator. I don''t need you to tell me this."

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny shook her head mysteriously, "This, you are very wrong. This great misfortune is nothing that you have ever faced before. In fact, this is going to be your number 1 great misfortune and you will regret not heeding my advice."

    Ji Yuan began to frown, "My number 1 great misfortune? Are you sure about this?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny smiled mysteriously, "I am the Great Oracle. Do you doubt my words?"

    Ji Yuan was bitterly smiling: Of course, I do because you are just a chatan¡­

    But his thoughts were quickly interrupted by the 5 divine consorts.

    "Master Ji Yuan, you ought to believe in the Great Oracle¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga, you are most fortunately to have the Great Oracle to warn you¡­"

    "Even the Great Oracle hase to warn our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­ he has the most extraordinary fate¡­"

    Xu Yifei and Tang Manni were both pleading with their eyes on Ji Yuan to believe what the Great Oracle had just said.

    Even the Goddess Ai Tina was saying, "It seems that we must be prepared for this great number 1 cmity that will befalling our Great Spiritas Hero."

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "Alright then. Thanks for the warnings. You may go now."

    The Great Goddess of Destiny panicky said, "Only I can help you to avert this great cmity. Therefore, I am also here to grace my presence until this number 1 great cmity has passed for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She is not only a chatan but she is also a swindler as well. Isn''t this what all the swindlers will say?!

    The Great Goddess of Destiny then smiled as she looked at everyone, "You must all be curious why, right? Because the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has recently justpleted all 3 of my challenges to obtain a question from me. Therefore, I am inclined to be quite generous toward him by staying here to avert this number 1 great cmity from him."

    The other 4 divine consorts and many in the tavern were shocked; Ji Yuan and not the Goddess Ai Tina was the one that had obtained the right to ask a question from the Great Oracle of Delphi?

    And what sort of a question did he ask?

    Immediately there were severalrge mutterings in the tavern as many began to discussed what the Great Oracle of Delphi had just said to them.

    Chu Lixue was shaking her head quietly as she thought: Ji Yuan has wasted his question just like this¡­

    But she was also thinking that this Great Oracle was indeed a great beauty especially when she was smiling and it was no wonder why Ji Yuan had asked about her background instead of a proper question.

    Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju were both staring nkly at Ji Yuan with a look of disbelief before they turned to look weakly at each other with the samemon thing in their minds: Ji Yuan is the one that has obtained the right to ask the Great Oracle of Delphi a question?!

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "What if I say no?"

    Xu Yifei quickly said, "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei wees the Great Oracle to stay in my tavern until the number 1 great cmity has passed for Master Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan almost fainted as he looked at Xu Yifei, saying silently: I am not going to be alone with this swindler. This Dark Goddess of Destiny is too dangerous. Didn''t you hear her when she has pronounced her title as a Dark Goddess? This number 1 great cmity is actually her¡­ I am going to move out of this tavern¡­

    The Great Goddess of Destiny smiled with great delight, "Then I shall not decline your politeness and stay in this tavern."

    She was actually thinking: I have better not let them know that my cultivation realm has dropped while I find the opportunity to remove this ursed ve cor.

    I am definitely not going to acknowledge this Ji Yuan as my master and I am not a ve to anyone. As long as my yacting is good enough, no one and not even this Ji Yuan will discover my ve cor. No one canmand me to listen to this lowly cultivator.

    My priority now is to find a chance to be alone with him and to tell him about my background. Once this is done, this ve cor will then disappear.

    Once my ve cor disappears, this goddess shall butcher you.

    You didn''t expect that I''ll be your number 1 great cmity, do you?

 Chapter 827 The Real Number 1 Calamity

    ?

    The City-state of Aiel.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was roaming the streets of this city-state and she was frowning quietly.

    Has she fallen into a trap?

    Upon entering the trial portal, she soon found herself dressed in a revealing spirit dress and in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    To call her spirit dress as a dress is really an underestimation.

    This spirit dress that showed her butts consisted of only a few straps of spirit silk to protect her privacy.

    But as a Demonic Race, she was no stranger to the cultural dressing of the Spiritas for this was quite simr to the ancient dress attire of the Demonic Race.

    Also, upon entering this Spirit Divine Realm, she was dismayed that her profound strength had been restricted to the 7th cultivation realm in this ce even though her cultivation realm remained the same.

    This ce was just not friendly to her Demonic Race.

    But this was of little consequences to her since the cultivator that she was seeking was just a great saint at the 7th cultivation realm.

    Her one big problem was that she had no idea where to find this Ji Yuan after stepping into this realm.

    Even if she stopped someone in the streets, it was unlikely that they know who Ji Yuan was. In short, it was like hunting for a needle in the vast mountains.

    The Trial Spirit had told her that she had 5 days or 50 days in the Spirit Divine Realm toplete her trial and that was to earn 100 Trust Points from a divine consort in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Already 3 days had passed as she wandered the city-state of Aiel.

    However, she was unconcerned about the trial.

    If Ji Yuan was indeed in this trial, then she would see him at the end of the 50 days whether she could find him or not in this ce.

    But she was frowning at the possibility that this Ji Yuan may have already used a golden talisman to escape from this trial while she was trapped inside it.

    There was also a possibility that this Ji Yuan may have 2 golden talismans and he would have no issue about using his golden talisman.

    Then she took a look at the many beautiful and revealing attire of the spiritas maidens in this ce before she curled a smile.

    "No, he may not use his golden talisman yet. It is because, he is a man after all¡­"

    All of a sudden, her sharp eyes spotted an enchanting and mesmerizing celestial maiden in the streets.

    Although she did not recognize her but she had recognized a dark tattoo that was on her left shoulder and she was from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    At the same time, she noticed that she appeared to be pregnant although it was still a young pregnancy.

    Instantly she had shed to this maiden, startling her all of a sudden. "Maiden, may we have a little talk?"

    This mesmerizing maiden was actually Hua Yunzi and she was startled that someone could appear so stealthy in front of her and she did not even notice her until she was already here.

    Then she noticed that this intruder was actually a stunning beautiful maiden with long silver hair that seemed to reflect even the sunlight.

    And she saw that she also had a ck ring on her finger.

    She is a celestial maiden too?

    "Yes?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao appeared to have a pair of golden eyes but this was merely an illusion as she had hidden her crimson eyes with her profound cultivation art.

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked at this mesmerizing beautiful maiden slowly before she smiled, "I don''t think that I''ve ever seen you in the Evil Cultivation Pce before."

    Hua Yunzi was startled; she is from the Evil Cultivation Pce too? From another celestial fraternity?

    But she quickly regained herposure to smile, "It isn''t difficult to know my identity but what about yours? Your origin is a little dubious. Shouldn''t you introduce yourself first?"

    She knows that her tattoo was a giveaway of her identity if someone knows about it. But for this stunning beautiful maiden, there was no tattoo on her so she should not be from the Evil Cultivation Pce?

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "You may not know me but I serve as a personal guard to the Great Demon God himself. Therefore, I am not really from the Evil Cultivation Pce. But I do recognize that you are a dark servant of the Third Citadel Mistress. So have you seen Little Princess in this ce?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Hua Yunzi could feel that this maiden was watching her keenly as she said calmly, "No, I am searching for her as well."

    She was a great saintess of the upper 7th cultivation realm and know quite a few profound arts to conceal her true intents.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "You look too calm. Or is it because you have already found Little Princess?"

    Hua Yunzi: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "You should look frustrated and even a little disappointed that you did not manage to find Little Princess, am I right? After all, this is one of you missions inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Hua Yunzi: ¡­

    "Just who are you? How did you know so much about the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I did tell you right? But if you really want to know then I am Number 1."

    Hua Yunzi had suddenly lost herposure; it was because she had heard that the Great Demon God had 5 secret numbers as his personal guards and they were Number 1, Number 2, Number 3, Number 4 and Number 5. And all the lesser numbers have to listen to these 5 prime numbers, even the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Even though she may not be in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, she had heard that Number 1 had a nasty reputation whenever she was awakened briefly.

    She was stammering all of a sudden, "I didn''t know what brings your Prime Number here in this ce?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I am hunting for someone. Do you happen to know him?"

    Hua Yunzi slowly said, "What is his name?"

    "His name is Ji Yuan."

    Hua Yunzi was startled but she slowly nodded her head.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Good. It seems that you did not lie to me this time round. So where is he?"

    Hua Yunzi appeared to be shaken and she was thinking; just how strong is this Number 1? I am a great saintess and I shouldn''t be too weak in front of her, right? But¡­ why am I so afraid in her presence?"

    "Well?"

    Hua Yunzi appeared to recover from her wits when Ding Xiaoxiao had asked her again.

    Slowly she said, "Your Prime Number, I have heard that this Ji Yuan is now in Snowy Pavilion City. You may find him there."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao took a curious look at her, "If he is there, why aren''t you there as well? Isn''t killing Ji Yuan also one of your missions?"

    Hua Yunzi firmly replied but there was a look of fear in her eyes, "Indeed it is one of my missions and I''ve already met him some time ago in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. However, I am unable to defeat him and he has spared me. That is why I am unable to continue on my mission."

    The reason why there was a look of fear in her eyes was because the Evil Cultivation Pce was rarely kind to failures.

    And moreover, her questioner was the infamous Number 1.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had already seen from her tattoo that she was a prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Third Citadel, "Hmm, I won''t hold you for not betraying your Third Citadel Mistress but if you lie to me on the whereabouts of this Ji Yuan, you should know the consequences."

    Hua Yunzi nodded slowly and in a stiff manner, "I won''t dare to."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly before walking away.

    Hua Yunzi heaved a soft sigh of relief as she watched Number 1 disappeared from her view.

    "Ji Yuan, I am sorry that I have to reveal where you are. But your whereabout is actually not a secret. You are the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and everyone knows that you are from Snowy Pavilion City. So, this is only a matter of time before Number 1 found out where you are. So please don''t me me."

    Then she turned to quicken her pace, "I must let Maiden Ling Feiyue knows about this¡­"

 Chapter 828 Who The Number 1 Calamity?

    ?

    Back to the Tavern at Snowy Pavilion City.

    Ji Yuan was shocked that the Dark Goddess of Destiny had dered to everyone that she would be staying in the tavern as well.

    His first thought was that he got to move out of this ce because he suspected that she may have an ulterior motive in following them here.

    But when he had thought that he was staying in this tavern because of Xu Yifei, he decided to drop his idea about moving out.

    Moreover, this Dark Goddess of Destiny may also follow him to his new ce as well.

    At this moment, he had to maintain his Trust Points with all the divine consorts or he would not get any rewards at the end of this trial.

    He could see that the divine consorts all had a high regard for their Great Oracle of Delphi and she was even their ''Sacred Great Oracle Goddess''.

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny was now smiling to Ji Yuan as she had taken out a ring with a skull on it, "Wear it at all times. This ring will avert you from your Number 1 Cmity that ising soon."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do I really need to?

    The Goddess Ai Tina and the other 5 divine consorts were all pleading with him to put on the ring with the skull as this was a profound artefact from their Great Oracle.

    With great reluctant, Ji Yuan tried the skull ring on his finger before he tried to pull it out again.

    All of a sudden, he discovered that he could not.

    "What the heck? I can''t pull this ring off my finger!"

    The Dark Goddess of Destiny chuckled, "It means that it is working. You will be able to remove this ring once your number 1 cmity is passed. So don''t worry about this. You should be d instead for this is an immortal ring and is a ring of great profound power."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I say my number 1 cmity is you instead.

    Destiny was now secretly looking quite pleased; she had tricked this Ji Yuan to put on her skull ring. This means that in the meantime he could never shake her off for the time being.

    This skull ring is actually her legendary Secret Oracle Gate and inside it, is a pocket dimension of her world where she had first met them in her Sacred Temple of Delphi.

    Ji Yuan asked her weakly, "What great profound power can this immortal ring gives me then?"

    Destiny answered with a half solemn and a half smiling look, "It will guard you and will be useful to ward you against your number 1 cmity."

    "I mean, other than guarding me from this number 1 cmity. What other profound powers can this immortal ring gives me?"

    "Nothing."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "Nothing?!"

    This Goddess Destiny is a total fake!

    When Destiny saw the look that was on Ji Yuan, she quickly added with a mysterious smile. "I mean nothing for now. You will soon learn of its great profound power when you are in need."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am in need now, you know.

    I need to save myself from a number 1 cmity such as yourself.

    Although Ji Yuan had a nonchnt look when he had received the immortal ring but all the others were envious that he got an immortal gift from the Great Oracle and they were all crowding to see the skull ring that was on his finger.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was looking with great envious, "Yuan Beluga is so lucky to receive an immortal ring from the Great Oracle. I wish I have one too as well."

    She had identally let her thoughts be known.

    But all the other divine consorts, including Xu Yifei were all nodding as well.

    This was an enviable gift indeed!

    Even the Goddess Ai Tina was looking at Ji Yuan with an enviable look and she said, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, maybe the profound power of this ring will soon manifest for you. You ought to treasure this immortal gift from the Great Oracle."

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly when he had heard her.

    This isn''t an engagement ring, you know. Why should I even try to treasure this immortal ring? And how the heck can I remove this ring?!

    Destiny smiled to Ji Yuan, "And now, it is time for us to have a little chat in private."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What chat?"

    All the others were also looking curiously at Ji Yuan and the Great Oracle as well. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Destiny waspelled by her ve cor to answer, "Naturally it is to answer your unfinished question."

    Ji Yuan immediately said nonchntly, "This won''t be necessary. I am afraid that I am a little busy today."

    And he was already looking in the direction of the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue who was looking with great amusement at the scene.

    He was quite eager to be alone with his senior sister again¡­

    Destiny: ¡­

    Then how can I be freed from my ve cor?!

    Xiang Li was startled: Big Brother, you don''t want to be alone with a maiden in a room? This is not like you!

    Anyang was also surprised: Is this still our lord?

    Ji Yuan frowned: I am a gentleman of the sword. What are the two of you thinking?

    Xiang Li giggled: Naturally thinking of who you want to bang tonight. The Goddess Destiny or the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Destiny was cursing silently in the meantime: Since you say that you are busy today, I can try to ask you again tomorrow. Consider yourself lucky today!

    The reason why she cannot insist is because Ji Yuan is her master and she ispelled to agree with him.

    Destiny was thinking: Luckily, he did not ask me to remove his ring for him¡­

    But she quickly smiled to everyone, "This goddess is going to cultivate in the meantime. So where is my room?"

    Maiden Flower Ju quickly stepped forward and she was smiling, "Great Oracle, please follow me upstairs. We will give you the best room that we got."

    Destiny nodded lightly as she began to follow Maiden Flower Ju but not before she returned a mysterious smile at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan in the meantime was quite relieved to get rid of her for the time being and he was still trying to figure out the ulterior motive of this Goddess Destiny.

    Ding Jie''Er had suddenly said to Ji Yuan after the Great Oracle had gone upstairs, "I''ve just remembered something. There is an old cultivator that is my champion that says you are nothing in his eyes and he asks to challenge you."

    Ji Yuan just shrugged his shoulders tough, "Well, there are plenty of cultivators that I cannot beat. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er sighed, "And he says you have no guts at all. But of course, I say that my Yuan Beluga is full of iron guts."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned immediately, "What is his name?"

    Ding Jie''Er thought for a moment, "He says his name is Old Yang. That''s all I know about his name."

    Ji Yuan was startled but he quicklyposed to grin, "Well, let''s pay him a visit tomorrow then."

    Even Chu Lixue was looking at their way as she gasped to herself: My old man?

    Ding Jie''Er was startled, "Are you sure Yuan Beluga? This is just a casual remark."

    Sun Dingjun smiled, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, I can offer to teach this old cultivator a lesson on your behalf."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "No need. Tomorrow I shall teach this old cultivator a lesson myself. Hahaha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er had a flushed look as she giggled softly, "Then tonight, I shall stay in this tavern too. Tomorrow we shall set off together."

    "I am going with you tomorrow to teach this Old Yang a lesson." Sun Dingjun quickly said and she too had a flustered look, "So tonight I am staying in this tavern as well."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was frowning softly when she had heard them; she had actually wanted to stay here as well but she happened to have a meeting tomorrow so she could not.

    The same goes for Tang Manni as well.

    In fact, Tang Manni had to go back to her vi soon and she was just in time to have met Ji Yuan and her Sister Xu Yifei.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself: Tonight, may be a most uneven night¡­

 Chapter 829 Knock! Knock! Please Come In!

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now back in his personal room after giving Xiao Muhan a hearty hug and saying farewell to Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin who had to leave the tavern.

    He actually had the intention to wait for his senior sister in his room so that he could undergone his ''special treatment'' from her.

    At the same time, he was quite excited to see his old man again.

    But shouldn''t he be outside of the trial portal instead?

    Why is he here in this ce?

    Has something happens?

    He was thinking that his senior sister must also be d that there was news of her old man.

    But he was soon frowning: If my old man is also here then I can''t have my special treatments with my senior sister then¡­

    All of a sudden there was a soft knock on his door.

    And Ji Yuan excitingly disyed his profound strength to weaken the basic defensive arrays in his room, "Pleasee in."

    A beautiful and peerless maiden in white had suddenly stepped into the room and she was the albino great beauty Destiny herself.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "The Goddess Destiny?"

    Destiny smiled, "Of course it is me. Are you expecting someone else?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "It is you? Why are you here?"

    He was frowning when he saw her, "If there is anything to talk about, we should wait for the next day."

    Destiny curled a smile, "I''ve heard that you are injured and only your senior sister is able to treat you. Therefore, I am here to help you. Let me check your body for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Actually, if you offer that kind of a service, I don''t mind but you shouldn''t be in my room.

    Although he had said that, but he actually did mind because he was quite cautious about the intentions of this Goddess Destiny.

    "Only my senior sister is able to help me. Haha¡­"

    Destiny knows that she needed to carefully y with her words or she would bepelled to leave this room by the subtlemand that this Ji Yuan would say.

    But today, she had no chance to reveal about her background as her ''master'' hadmanded not to talk about this today.

    However, it would be a different thing if he was suddenly curious about her background.

    Therefore, she was seeking every opportunity that she could to be freed from her ve cor.

    And of course, this Ji Yuan must know that he could affect her as ''Master'' and she, as his ve must be pelled'' to obey.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had a brilliant idea to drive her away.

    He began to pretend to look lecherously at her appealing body and he was even grinning like a viin, "Nice figure and body."

    Destiny had suddenly frozen on the spot; it was because she had never thought of the possibility that this Ji Yuan would have designs on her immortal body. If he had any evil thoughts to obtain her body then she would also bepelled to fulfill his wishes or she would get a bacsh to her cultivation core for being disobedient to her master.

    One must know that due to the high cultivation realm of the immortals, ve cor actually could not be used on them except under extreme conditions.

    One, it had to be self-afflicted.

    Two, it had to be imposed by a much, much higher immortal power.

    The ve cor that was on Destiny happened to be fulfilled by these 2 conditions. Although it was imposed by a much higher immortal power, it was also self-afflicted because this was a warning to her.

    She had never thought she would self-afflicted this ve cor on herself because the Great Beyond Goddess had never specially mention this as her punishment and she was too proud to heed the words of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    After all, she had thought that being imprisoned for the past 100 000 years were already a lofty punishment for her deception.

    "Maybe I shall see if your condition improves tomorrow then."

    Destiny had quickly said and without a word more, she had quickly left the room.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was actually quite startled; it was because he had been expecting for her to fly into a rage at his insolence and disrespect.

    Then he would finally have an excuse to check her true motives.

    Failing that, at the very least, she would leave his room for his senior sister.

    There was finally another knock on his door.

    Ji Yuan was excited once again as he shouted with a look of eagerness, "Come in, please."

    But to his dismay, it was actually Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    "Yuan Beluga, how have you been?" Ding Jie''Er shyly said as she looked at him before walking in.

    Before he could answer her, she added again with a disheartening look. "We didn''t actually have plenty of time to talk recently, am I right? Especially now that you are a Great Spiritas Hero and even a guard of honor for the Goddess Ai Tina. Your status now is different."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I was only being lucky. Little Jie''Er, you are always my good friend. So don''t worry about this."

    In front of this sincere and innocent divine consort, Ji Yuan was actually behaving himself and did not drive her away immediately.

    Moreover, he was also trying to maintain his Trust Points with her.

    Ding Jie''Er was delighted but she was soon looking shyly down, "Really? That is really a good thing to know¡­"

    Then she quickly giggled, "I am just curious about your trip to the legendary Secret Oracle Gate. What question did you ask and why was the Great Oracle in your room earlier? What did she say to you?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "She is only here to check if I am well. After that, she has quickly left the room."

    Ding Jie''Er shook her head, "This is a little too quick. She must have said something to you but it is just not convenient to share with your Little Jie''Er, am I right to say so? Because I am just a stranger in your eyes. Naturally what the Great Oracle has said to you, is your personal secret so I shouldn''t have even asked in the first ce."

    "This isn''t true," Ji Yuan had suddenly solemnly said to her. "You are my good friend and isn''t a stranger. The Great Oracle is just checking if I am well but I''ve told her that only my senior sister is able to help me and that is the reason why she has left. As for the question that I''ve asked¡­"

    He started to grin, "Naturally it is convenient for me to share with Little Jie''Er. I have merely asked the Great Oracle about her background."

    Ding Jie''Er appeared to be d at the first half and a little startled at the second half of Ji Yuan''s words. "You didn''t ask her for help in resolving your cultivation arts? Or the location of some fabled profound treasures?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "As you have already known, I am just a visiting celestial and I doubt that I have the time to find a fabled profound treasure in this Spirit Divine Realm¡­"

    Then he raised his fingers into a sword fingers, "I don''t have to ask her about any cultivation questions because I am only interested in the Dao of the Sword Arts. And I have the answer already."

    Ding Jie''Er asked curiously, "There are an almost infinity answers to the acme of the sword cultivation. It may be helpful to ask for an opinion, right? Maybe the Great Oracle can even resolve the doubts that are in your heart and set you on a resolute path to the acme of sword perfection."

    Ji Yuan shook his head gently¡­

    The reason why he was shaking his head was because he still thinks that this Goddess Destiny was simply a great chatan and also because he had a resolute heart in his Sword Dao.

    He answered with a grin, "I am a Sword Deity now. There is no one that understands the Dao of the Sword better than me. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er was smiling, "That is good to hear¡­"

    Then she lowered her nces from him and with a short hesitation, she asked quietly. "If Yuan Beluga do not mind, do you mind sharing with me your trip to the legendary Secret Oracle Gate? I am curious to know what is in there."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Why not? This is but a small request. Now, where shall we start? How about from the moment that I''ve left this tavern¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er nodded eagerly and she was looking excited that Ji Yuan had the time to share his epic stories with her.

    Xiang Li was secretly saying to Fairy Anyang: I bet that Big Brother is going to remove all his awkward moments and he will surely add a few more heroic scenes for himself.

    Fairy Anyang was giggling: Isn''t this to be expected? He is going to twist his story again.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Ding Jie''Er, Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, there was another listener in this room and she was Destiny.

    Through her immortal skull ring, she was able to eavesdrop on Ji Yuan.

    Naturally her skull ring has more immortal profound powers than Ji Yuan has suspected but these immortal profound powers are only usable by her and not Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 830 Ji Yuan Is A Fake â€˜Genius Cultivatorâ€™

    ?

    After Ji Yuan had finished recounting his trip in the legendary Secret Oracle Gate to Ding Jie''Er and how he had met the Great Oracle of Delphi, she was astonished.

    Naturally he had lied about the third challenge to her and had merely told her that the Goddess Ai Tina was gracious not to kill him but decided to give him a chance to ask a question from the Great Oracle of Delphi.

    Also, he had hidden several things from her like his suspicions on the Spiritas Tower and the Greater Spirit Realm as he did not want to Little Jie''Er to have any undue anxiety. After all, this was only his suspicions and it may not be the whole truth.

    Also, he felt uneasy about exposing the Goddess Ai Tina especially he had realized that she and Xu Yifei are actually rted.

    Ding Jie''Er was suddenly quiet and she seemed to be pondering over something.

    This was not lost on Ji Yuan as he asked her, "Little Jie''Er, if you have anything in your mind, why don''t you tell me?"

    Ding Jie''Er sighed softly, "I wonder if Yuan Beluga is willing to show me the golden horn that you have found inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate? I know that this may be a most awesome cultivation profound treasure for you so it is perfect alright if you don''t want to show it to me¡­"

    But before she could finish, Ji Yuan had already taken out the golden horn and put it gently in her hands, "You mean this? It isn''t something that is really useful to me. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er was holding the golden horn with trembling fingers, "This is really the golden horn of the Wolly Nympha. Your Little Jie''Er cultivates the spirit lightning profound art and this golden horn can enhance my spirit lightning talisman as well as my own cultivation. I wonder if Yuan Beluga can give me a little of this golden horn so that I can research it? I can pay you of course."

    She pursed her lips to continue, "I can arrange for it even if you desire¡­"

    There was a flustered look in her dedicate countenance as she tried to say that she was willing to let Yuan Beluga have her if he so desired. But she just could not say the word out.

    But Ji Yuan simply interrupted her with a soft chuckle, "Little Jie''Er, if this golden horn is useful to you then just say so. Take this golden horn then."

    Ding Jie''Er was dumbfounded and she was trembling uncontrobly, "The¡­ entire golden horn¡­ is for me? You''re¡­ sure, Yuan Beluga?"

    Ji Yuan looked at her curiously, "Why not?"

    Ding Jie''Er stammered for words, "But what¡­ do Yuan Beluga wants¡­ from this golden horn in return?"

    Actually, Ji Yuan had not thought of getting anything in return for this golden horn and he really have no use for it even though he knows that he may be able to exchange it for a huge sum of spirit stones or even for the other profound treasures that he may needed.

    But he is Ji Yuan and not the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong who would surely demand a price in return as he sought to perfect all his cultivations.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was unwilling to spend centuries of his life in cultivation so that he could be stronger than the average cultivators.

    He did not need this recognition of being praised by the others.

    Heck! He did not even know what this golden horn would even do!

    Ding Jie''Er shook her head to protest firmly, "This is too precious for me to take. You have no idea how valuable this golden horn is to the spirit lightning cultivators. I can''t take advantage of Yuan Beluga even if you do not need this. Your Little Jie''Er just needs a little and it will do."

    Ji Yuanughed before saying to her with an equally firm look, "Although my cultivation sucks but I know that you will surely need more than just a little. After all, once you have the need for it, you will need more than that to test and even improve upon your cultivation profound arts."

    "But what do you need for this?" Ding Jie''Er was adamant to ask Ji Yuan what he needed.

    Xiang Li had purposely taken this opportunity to say: Take her body, Big Brother!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shut up, Xiang Li.

    But he quickly answered with a soft chuckle, "The divine sword that my Jiajia has given me is more than enough¡­"

    The earth-step divine sword that Jiajia has given him has now be an emperor-step divine sword and he has been using it for the past 100 years.

    This is actually his first divine sword.

    And he is going to use this divine sword to protect Jiajia when he has emerged from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    He has plenty of love for this divine sword and now this divine sword is also called Xiang Li.

    But when he saw the guilty look that was in Little Jie''Er, heughed. "Well, I wonder if you got any replenishing profound pills that can help me to regain my profound strength? I am short of supplies now. Haha¡­"

    This was the truth.

    It was not only him that was short of the replenishing profound pills but all the celestial cultivators in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were also short in supply after almost 6 months of trials inside.

    Ding Jie''Er muttered weakly, "Isn''t this too cheap?"

    But Ji Yuan insisted, "This is actually quite valuable for me. Haha¡­"<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    All of a sudden, Ding Jie''Er had dropped into his embrace and she was holding his strong waist tightly, "Yuan Beluga, thank you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled by her sudden action, "Erm, this is alright."

    Ding Jie''Er continued to say softly, "This Maiden Jiajia, you seem to like her a lot. Do you mind telling me more about her?"

    Ji Yuan was d to talk about Jiajia. In fact, he wanted to talk more about Jiajia than copting with his senior sister.

    So he cleared his throat before saying, "Ahem! Well, it goes like this. I''ve first met Jiajia in the Mystic Eye Guild. At that time, I was fishing for information about Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue. This Sacred Xue Qianxue had actually dared to challenge me for a duel but I was kind enough to ept it. If I lose, I would have to shave off my beard. Naturally this is not something that I want to do at that time. That is why I am in the Mystic Eye Guild as this duel is important for me¡­"

    "And then Xia Jiajia had also appeared. At that time, I had already known that she was in cahoots with Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue but I just pretended to y along with her. As you know, how is it possible for a genius like me to be setup so easily? And so¡­"

    "You must know that I am a genius cultivator that always thinks 7 steps ahead¡­"

    Fairy Anyang asked Xiang Li: Is our lord telling the truth?

    Xiang Li giggled: This sounds a little different from Maiden Ling Feiyue''s ounts¡­

    Fairy Anyang shook her head: His ounts in the legendary Secret Oracle Gate was too exaggerated and he is the only smart cultivator in there¡­

    Xiang Liughed jovially: Isn''t all cultivation stories like this as well?

    Fairy Anyang weakly said: Our lord is simply rewriting all his cultivation history with his fake stories!

    Xiang Li giggled: I know the ending of this story that Big Brother is telling to Sister Little Jie''Er. In the end, Jiajia cannot help but fall in love with him because he is so awesome¡­

    Ji Yuan of course was not paying any attention to Xiang Li and Anyang now as he was now lost in his own world trying to create an awesome hero cultivator that could make Jiajia loses herself whenever she was in his presence.

    Anyang muttered weakly: I feel sad for the impure soul sea of our lord.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: But Big Brother''s soul sea is still so pure. Why is it so?

    Anyang looked at Xiang Li but did not say anything: Because of you¡­

    But she quickly smiled: I wonder which silly maiden actually believe that our lord is a genius cultivator?

    Destiny was gasping with shock when she had secretly heard the ounts that were from Ji Yuan.

    "Did he just say that he always thinks 7 steps ahead?"

    "He is actually a genius cultivator and I have been calcted into his trap¡­ it is no wonder that I have got this ve cor¡­"

    She gasped again with a sudden realization, "Don''t tell me that he has nned to give me this ve cor from the very start? And this is all part of his ns? He knows that I have this ve cor and therefore he is trying to deny me from telling him about my background?"

    "This is bad now¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere in the tavern, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were in the same room together.

    They were weeping together and Xu Yifei sobbed, "Thank you for not allowing my Sister Tang Manni to go to the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    With a broken and yet sorrowful voice, the Goddess Ai Tina said to Xu Yifei. "You must promise me to let me who is the True Devil God before the end of the trias lof the Spiritas Tower. This is our only hope... please promise me..."

    Xu Yifei was quiet.

    It was because she did not want to betray Ji Yuan for any reasons.

    No matter what, she had already decided to shoulder on this fight on her own and she did not want to trouble Ji Yuan further.

 Chapter 831 This Isnâ€™t What You Think It Is

    ?

    Ji Yuan had actually told Ding Jie''Er about his epic story with Jiajia and more till the next morning.

    All this while Ding Jie''Er was patiently listening to her story and Ji Yuan did not want to stop making up his epic story; it was because he had finally found a good listener to his exaggerated story.

    But unfortunately, he had to go to Ding Jie''Er vi the next day and when Xiao Muhan had barged into his room, Ding Jie''Er was still holding onto his waist.

    This startled Ji Yuan for he had forgotten to activate the defensive profound array in his room after Ding Jie''Er had entered his room since he was actually waiting for his senior sister toe.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er was also quite startled as well when Xiao Muhan had suddenly barged her and saw that she was in Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    Xiao Muhan was the most stunned as he muttered weakly, "I didn''t see anything. Something got into my eyes. I am going out now¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This isn''t what you think it is.

    Then he had suddenly realized that he had been holding Little Jie''Er sincest night as he was actually trying tofort her that it was perfectly alright not to repay him. In the end, he had only asked for some replenishing profound pills as a smallpensation.

    This was actually not the first time that he had hold Little Jie''Er waist; the first time that he had met her, he had hold her waist for 6 hours. Somehow her slim waist was sofortable that he did not feel like he was holding her.

    He had suddenly realized that he was now screwed¡­

    Ding Jie''Er quickly got up and she was looking quite awkward as she quickly excused herself, "Yuan Beluga, I need to go now to talk to my followers. See you in a little while time¡­"

    When Ji Yuan exited his room and was downstairs at the tavern, almost everyone in the tavern had already known that Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had spent the night in his personal room.

    Even his Senior Sister Chu Lixue merely said coldly to him, "Congrats on warming your rtionship with Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. You are really good in this. I admit defeat."

    Ji Yuan protested quietly, "Senior sister, this isn''t what you think it is. I was actually waiting for you¡­"

    "Was waiting for me? Right. Hmph!" Chu Lixue ignored Ji Yuan as she walked to one side.

    Ji Yuan did not have the opportunity to exin because Sun Dingjun had suddenly appeared hastily and asked him with a flustered look, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, did you do blush, blush thing with Little Jie''Erst night in your personal room?"

    He quickly said to her, "Oh no, nothing at all."

    "But your Brother Xiao Muhan says otherwise."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan, I''m going to kill you¡­

    Ji Yuan did have much time to exin because the tavern was quite busy in the morning.

    And also, he saw the Goddess Destiny, Xu Yifei, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xiao Muhaning down as well.

    Maiden Flower Ju and many of the female followers of Xu Yifei were counting chests after chests that were warded by spirit talismans and mini arrays.

    Ji Yuan was curious what these chests were and he asked Maiden Flower Ju about these chests.

    To his astonishments, these chests all contained immortal jades and these were all sent by the many divine consorts from all over the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, hoping to curry favor with the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The news that the Goddess Ai Tina had descended upon the Spirit Divine Realm had shaken the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and these divine consorts were sending their immortal jades to her so that she would show them some special favors in the future or in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had actually stated that she had 4 tasks to do when she was in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    One, to get rid of the rebels for the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad and she had aplished it. This caused her reputation to increase tremendously among all the divine consorts.

    Two, to visit the legendary Secret Oracle Gate and to seek the consult of the Great Oracle of Delphi. This had also been done and the news that the Great Oracle was in this ce had already been ryed by the many spies of the divine consorts through their secret transmissions. This further rmed all the other divine consorts.

    Three, to witness the Great Games of the uing Spiritas Tower. This was rtively easy to aplish.

    Four, to collect immortal jades to cultivate. Now this was the unfulfilled wish list of the Goddess Ai Tina and many of the divine consorts were sending as many immortal jades as they could to win a special favor from their Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was pleased with the chests of immortal jades as this was actually what she had desired for this trip to increase her cultivation realm.

    This increase of her cultivation realm was only a small step increase and not a major increase. However, she needed every chance that she could to increase her cultivation strength as she was desperate to fight against her 6 masters.

    It was actually a fight without a ray of hope.

    And she could see that her child the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was adamant in joining her in this fight.

    However, she had other ns and she did not want to involve her¡­

    By now, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had also appeared with her female followers and it was time for Ji Yuan to go to her vi. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    And so he had departed with her, together with Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan and Sun Dingjun.

    The reason why Xiao Muhan was also with him was because it was only proper for him to pay his respect to the White Sword Monarch and that was why he had tagged along.

    Ji Yuan was actually still angry with Xiao Muhan but Xiao Muhan quickly protested with a whisper to him, "It really isn''t me, you know. You have no idea how many eyes are looking at your personal room. And everyone knows that Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er did note out of your room the whole night. I was actually thest one to know about this."

    But the one that was most unlikely to follow Ji Yuan was actually the Goddess Destiny.

    While Ji Yuan was walking with the rest in front, she was following him quietly behind.

    Ji Yuan turned to smile weakly to the Goddess Destiny, "Erm, Great Oracle. I am just visiting my old man. Why are you following me for?"

    Destiny smiled nonchntly, "Until your number 1 cmity has passed, I''ve decided to be your best protection against this great cmity."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "This won''t be necessary at all. I can take care of myself. Moreover, I have your ring to protect me too."

    Destiny pretended to sigh mncholy, "I am afraid that this won''t be enough. You need double the divine protection and that will be me."

    Ji Yuan frowned with a bitter look, "I am just wondering. Of all the people, why did you only show me your special favor?"

    This was actually the questions in everyone else mind as well as Xiao Muhan, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Chu Lixue and the three dozen female followers were all looking at the Goddess Destiny curiously.

    Destiny simply smiled mysteriously, "That is because you are the Special One. In the future, I am expecting for you to return this big favor to me."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes with a sheepish look before asking again, "And what exactly is my number 1 great cmity all about?"

    Destiny answered cryptically, "You will know when you see it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck is her reply?!

    Ji Yuan suddenly had a brilliant idea, "Since you are the Great Oracle, do you know what I was doingst night?"

    When he had said, this caused Ding Jie''Er to look really flustered and she was softly saying, "We really didn''t do anythingst night¡­"

    Destiny began to smile, "Do you know that I won''t answer a question so easily?"

    Ji Yuanughed silently: That is because you are just a chatan¡­

    "This goddess is feeling generous today with you so I will answer you. You have given Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er the golden horn of the Wolly Nympha and you spent the whole night telling her your story."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "You really know?"

    Even Sun Dingjun was shocked as she looked at Ding Jie''Er, "Is it true? Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has given you the golden horn of the Wolly Nympha?!"

    At which, Ding Jie''Er nodded shyly before saying. "It is the whole truth."

    Xiao Muhan was surprised, "You mean the two of you never do anything else?"

    Chu Lixue was startled too as she thought: I have misunderstood Ji Yuan?

    Ji Yuan quickly asked the Goddess Destiny, "Then how is Xia Jiajia doing in the Deste Celestial Fraternity now? Is she alright?"

    Destiny coldly smiled, "I am only generous with one question. You should have asked me that earlier. Also, do you really think I can answer a question whenever I can? This will drain my profound strength and I need to rest for a long time afterward."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Crap! I should have trusted her and asked her about Jiajia for my first question¡­

 Chapter 832 The Challenge (1)

    ?

    As Ji Yuan followed Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er to her vi, he noticed that the surroundings looked a little familiar.

    It was as though he had been here before.

    He began to mutter, "The surroundings look a little familiar¡­"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er giggled softly, "You have probably taken another route to the vi of Divine Consort Tang Manni. My vi estate is actually next to hers, on another hill."

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    No wonder¡­

    Does it mean that Tang Manni is also nearby?

    Soon they had reached the vi of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    Like the vi of Divine Consort Tang Manni, her vi covered several acres of gardens and there were many female followers of hers in the vicinity who quickly greeted their divine consort as she passed them by.

    The number of female followers in her vi were not as many as Tang Manni though and was decent.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er quickly said to them, "We are going to the guest hall of my vi. Send someone to bring Old Yang to me in the guest hall."

    ¡¤?¦Èm Afterwards, Ding Jie''Er brought Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue, Sun Dingjun and the Goddess Destiny to the guest hall of her vi.

    This guest hall was actually quite spacious and it could easily amodate several hundred people and it looked more like a meeting room.

    Ji Yuan was in a jovial mood today because he was going to see his old man today and he could even stand tall in front of him because he had banged his daughter Chu Lixue without him knowing.

    Chu Lixue on the other hand, shared none of Ji Yuan''s enthusiasm and she was beginning to wonder if Ji Yuan was actually her old man''s son while she was just an outsider.

    As for Xiao Muhan, he was eager to show the White Sword Monarch that it was his strong determination toe to this trial that have broken his ve seal and he was trying to show off his cultivation foundation in the hope that the White Sword Monarch may give him a tip or two.

    Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were both sitting together and chatting while waiting for Old Yang to turn up while the Goddess Destiny was sitting regally in the corner and not looking at anyone in particrly.

    The news that the Goddess Destiny was the Great Oracle has quickly spread in the vi and many of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er female followers were all quite respectfully toward her and even showed a special attention to her spiritual drinks.

    They were all hoping that the Great Oracle would suddenly look at them and to show a special favor to them by divining their destinies for them.

    This caused the number of female followers to be more than a hundred and more than twice the number as many were just trying to show up so that the Great Oracle would take a look at them.

    All of a sudden, an old voice was heard along the passage, "So this Ji Yuan is finally here? He actually has the guts toe to this ce!"

    A female follower was heard correcting him, "Champion Old Yang, you ought to address him as the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. That is his noble title now. And also, he is also the personal guard of honor for our Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked proud of himself as he inspected his toga to meet his old man. To have another person proiming his noble title was such a good feeling.

    But his jaws soon dropped when an unknown old man had suddenly entered the guest hall.

    Even Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan were looking stunned because this unknown old man was not the White Sword Monarch at all.

    This unknown old man with a short white beard had immediately spotted Ji Yuan and said coldly, "So you are that Ji Yuan? I''ve heard that you are really good with the sword. Do you dare to ept a challenge from me? Or are you afraid?"

    Ji Yuan disyed a small frown, "You are not my old man. Why are you calling yourself Old Yang? Why are you impersonating as my master? So that you can lure me here to fight you?"

    Ding Jie''Er was startled and she looked awkward: This Old Yang isn''t a friend of Yuan Beluga?<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    She was not actually expecting this Old Yang to be a friend of Ji Yuan since this Old Yang had been cursing Ji Yuan daily. But Ji Yuan appeared to know this Old Yang and even looked excited to meet him.

    The unknown old man with the short white beardughed hoarsely, "There are so many Old Yang in the world. I happen to be called Old Yang too. But if you want to know my name then it is Yang Batian!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to himself: Indeed, there are many Old Yang in the world¡­

    Ji Yuan saw that this Yang Baitian had a ck ring on his finger and he had probably known him when he had dered his name to Xi Huangdi just before he had entered the trial portal to this divine realm.

    Yang Batian said coldly, "I didn''t expect a young upstart like yourself to im the title of the Great Spiritas Hero. But do you dare to fight a peaked great saint like me? If you lose, then you have to give up your Great Spiritas Hero and your divine sword behind. If I lose then you may have my divine sword!"

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had suddenly spoken with a cold gaze at Yang Batian, "You are my champion. Whether you can duel or not, is not for you to say. As for Yuan Beluga''s Great Spiritas Title, it is not for you to take away with just a challenge. The senate is the one that has voted for Yuan Beluga''s Great Spiritas Hero title."

    Yang Batian was suddenly frowning unhappily; it was because he was actually hoping to defeat Ji Yuan in front of his divine consort and scoring his 100 Trust Points.

    Previously, he had actually tried to seduce Ding Jie''Er with his manly looks but had failed so he was hoping to fight Ji Yuan instead.

    In the Spirit Divine Realm, the men here mostly did not have any beards and the spiritas maidens here seemed to have a great disdain for any facial or bodily hairs.

    He did a quick research and found out that this was a cultural thing as the original spiritas did not have any facial or bodily hair, and so did their maidens.

    If a spiritas man has any facial or bodily then it only means that their human blood is strong and most of the spiritas maidens would then avoid the barbarian man as this is their social stigma.

    Yang Batian is not only a celestial but is also from the human race. For human and celestial is the same race.

    Yang Batian was not going to shave off his manly beard and shamed himself in front of his fellow celestials. Moreover, he was also a peaked great saint.

    That was why he had thought of challenging Ji Yuan to earn the Trust Points from the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er instead. After all, the spiritas respected their champions and they needed capable champions to contest in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "Peak great saint vs. peak great saint. This will be a fair fight. Very well then, I shall ept your challenge. However, I am unwilling to gamble with my divine sword¡­"

    Then he took out 10 immortal jades that were worth 1 billion high grade spirit stones, "We can wager with 10 immortal jades. Do you dare to ept my challenge then?"

    Yang Batian had a solemn look all of a sudden; this was his entire cultivation fortune and in the Celestial Realm, he could even buy several divine swords with 10 immortal jades. But he could not back off now for he had issued the challenge or this would be awkward to his face.

    This was supposed to be his challenge but all of a sudden, it had be Ji Yuan''s challenge to him.

    However, he was still confident of beating this, Ji Yuan. It was because he had 8000 years of cultivation under his belt and he was an old freak.

    "10 immortal jades, so shall it be!" He dered loudly.

    This shocked almost everyone in the guest hall except for the Goddess Destiny who casually said, "Only 10 immortal jades? I''ve thought that it may be 100 times more instead."

    When she had said that, Ji Yuan, Yang Batian, Ding Jie''Er, Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan, Sun Dingjun and all the others all had a most awkward look on their faces; none of them have 1000 immortal jades and this was an unimaginable wealth for all of them.

    Ji Yuan was rolling his eyes with a sheepish look as he thought: Throughout the years, you must have plenty of loot from all the thousands of genius cultivators that perish in your prison, am I right? It seems that the Great Beyond Goddess didn''t make a prison for you but make you extremely wealthy instead...

 Chapter 833 The Challenge (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Yang Batian were soon in the battle arena deep underground of the vi of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    This was also the ce where her female followers sparred or testes the profound power of their physical and spirit talismans.

    At this moment, more than 1000 female spiritas had turned up in the spector seats as they were interested to witness the duel between the two heaven-defying geniuses of the celestial race.

    Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun, Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue and Destiny were all seated in the together in the VIP balcony of the spector stands.

    This was an epic duel because Ji Yuan was only 500 odd years of age and he was going to fight against a 8000 year old peaked great saint that had been through uncountable battles.

    Although both were also peaked great saints but Ji Yuan was a sword cultivator and he did not have a strong cultivation foundationpared to an old freak like Yang Batian.

    Xiao Muhan began to wonder aloud as he looked at Chu Lixue, "I wonder who is going to win this duel?"

    Chu Lixue was looking quite nervous and even lost her divine smiles, "Are you asking me? Maybe you should ask the Great Oracle."

    When she had said that, Xiao Muhan, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were all looking nervously at the Goddess Destiny for an answer.

    Destiny knows that everyone was looking at her for an answer but she reminded everyone by casually saying, "Remember I have exhausted myself today. Have some faith in Ji Yuan."

    By saying so, if Ji Yuan has won then she would have earned credit for asking everyone to have faith in Ji Yuan. But even if she was wrong, she had an excuse as well.

    Her true wish was actually this as she began to rub her long ck rod and wished that Ji Yuan would die in this duel instead and then she would be freed from her ve cor.

    Below the spector stands, Yang Batian had already unsheathed his celestial-step divine sword and he was humming coldly to Ji Yuan, "I am Yang Batian, a peak great saint from the Azure Continent Fraternity!"

    Ji Yuan had also taken out a celestial-step divine sword from 1 of his 9 divine swords that he had been keeping to be used as his flying swords while shouting loudly, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, peak great saint of the Deste Celestial Fraternity!"

    The two of them had both disyed their profound aura and it was obvious that Yang Batian''s profound aura was twice as dense as Ji Yuan even though they were both peak great saints.

    It was obvious that Yang Batian had cultivated intensely for the past 8000 years.

    Ji Yuan thought: This old freak isn''t weak at all¡­

    Yang Batian smiled as he channeled all his profound strength as profound power into his divine sword and he had disyed a forward stance.

    "I am both a power and a defense cultivator. Ji Yuan, don''t say that I didn''t warn you first that your sword energies won''t be able to affect me."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled but he had also disyed his sword spirit into his sword arm and he too, had also positioned into an attack stance.

    The two of them were now appraising each other''s profound animus for a weakness or an opening before they made their first attack move.

    Chu Lixue had suddenly said, "It''s not looking good for Ji Yuan. He needs to use his superior divine swords instead. This old freak must be an old master in his celestial fraternity. His offense and defense are not only twice as strong as Ji Yuan but is also perfectly bnced. If he scores a hit on Ji Yuan, his profound defense can also be used as an offense to deliver twice the profound power. Also, we don''t know what profound arts or trump cards this old freak has too."

    Sun Dingjun was also muttering, "I don''t understand why Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan doesn''t want to use his emperor-step divine sword? This can offset their profound power disparity a little."

    Xiao Muhan was also frowning, "Isn''t it obvious? He has totally underestimated his opponent¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er was looking nervously at the twobatants and it was obvious that she was not rooting for her own champion to win in this fight.

    "Yuan¡­ Beluga, you can¡­ win, don''t you?"

    Yang Batian said coldly to Ji Yuan, "In my celestial fraternity, I am the number 1 sacred saint and I am invincible. In fact, I have never been defeated in the past 5000 years."

    Chu Lixue, Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and Xiao Muhan were all looking with a great astonishment at Destiny after hearing what Yang Batian had just dered.

    Is this Ji Yuan''s number 1 great cmity?

    Destiny''s divination is actually spot on!

    This means that Ji Yuan is in trouble today!

    Destiny was looking a little awkward when she saw that there were so many eyes looking at her; she actually did not mean that today Ji Yuan would meet his number 1 great cmity. The number 1 great cmity that she was referring to, was of course herself.

    After she had removed her ve cor, she would then butcher Ji Yuan to be his number 1 great cmity.

    Ji Yuan actually did not believe Destiny at the very start but he was slowly believing in her predictions.

    He thought: This is my number 1 great cmity that she has mentioned?

    Yang Batian disyed a savage light with his golden eyes as he said coldly, "As your elder, I am going to let you make your first move. Or the others will say that I''ve been bullying you."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You have said it so don''t regret it!"

    All of a sudden, he had shed with a startling speed upon Yang Batian, surprising all the onlookers including Yang Batian himself.

    Ji Yuan was simply too fast!

    But Yang Batian was an experienced cultivator and he had instantly raised his divine sword to block off Ji Yuan''s sudden attack and even with a single swing, he had knocked back Ji Yuan to fly backward with his superior profound power.

    Ji Yuan was actually knocked back 20 steps backward and even with his sword spirit, he could only increase his profound power by 20%.

    But as soon as he was knocked backward, he had swung his divine sword to deliver several bursts of sword energies that exploded upon Yang Batian.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    But Yang Batian did not even blocked with his divine sword as the sword energies bursts exploded harmlessly upon him, guarded by his formidable profound aura and leaving him without any wounds.

    Yang Batian frowned coldly, "I''ve told you that your sword energies will not have enough profound power to hurt me. Are you even listening?"

    When he had said that, even Xiao Muhan and many others were all groaning at Ji Yuan''s foolishness.

    But unknown to everyone, Ji Yuan was actually watching the minute flickering of Yang Batian''s profound aura with his divine sense and he had quickly identified the possible soft spots tond his melee moves.

    Yang Batian had suddenly exploded into a white energy light and he had shed next to Ji Yuan with his divine sword, "Heavens Annihtion Force! Seventh Heavens Annihtion Sword!"

    He had suddenly increased his profound power many times over with his internal profound art the Heavens Annihtion Force and his unique sword art the Seventh Annihtion Sword as he swept his sword in a downward arc, causing the entire ground to explode tremendously with a bright light and with the heaven-defying profound power of his sword profound art.

    This sword art was impossible for Ji Yuan to evadepletely as it covered a wide area.

    Ji Yuan was also startled because this was the advantage of the superior internal profound arts and power cultivators could easily use it to power all their profound arts, including sword profound arts.

    And Ji Yuan internal profound art was simply basic whenpared to this Heavens Annihtion Force which could easily rival the internal profound arts of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue.

    Unless the Yang Invincible Profound Art counts.

    But this was an internal profound art that was too demanding for Ji Yuan to master while he was still in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan quickly disyed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as he mustered all his profound strength into profound energies as he stabbed his sword upon Yang Batian while narrowing avoiding brutal profound power of the Seventh Annihtion Sword by shing past the sword point in a blink of an eye.

    Yang Batian''s profound animus was burnt by the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as he flew upward beforending with a thunderous crash onto the ground.

    As for Ji Yuan he had suffered some burning profound damage from the Seventh Annihtion Sword but it was not serious.

    Yang Batian could not believe that this Ji Yuan could sh past his sword point at the exact same moment that he was disying his Seventh Annihtion Sword and he could even make a strong counter-attack.

    This type of reflexes was impossible even for Yang Batian to do as sword energies demanded both profound strength and profound power to charge up.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan had used a heaven-defying sword energies that generated a long burst of sword pure energies that exceeded even his profound defense in such a short time.

    What he did not know was that this Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling was used three times to kill Yin Wei, another peak great saint that had metamorphosis into a super cultivator.

    At that time, Ji Yuan still required 3 to 5 blinks of an eye to charge up his massive sword energies and most of his opponents would be able to evade this build-up of sword energies.

    ¡¤?¦Èm But Ji Yuan''s sword energy cultivation now was able to almost instantly disy his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as long as his profound strength was not faltering.

    This enhanced speed was possible due to his high cultivation in internal energy such as the Profound Energies Revtion and also because he has since mastered the Natural Instinct of his Divine Heart Recite and he could now easilybined the Three-in-One Reflex of his sword energies cultivation as the Heaven, Earth and Mortal as one.

    This Divine Heart Recite could actually give him 10 more cultivation profound arts under a set of special conditions and Ji Yuan has unwittingly unlocked them due to his only focus in sword cultivation and speed.

    And today he had disyed this Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon from a ranged sword energies attack into a melee attack, correcting the many ws in a sword energies attack.

    And sword energies attack actually required less profound power to tear apart a cultivator''s profound defense.

    Yang Batian simply could not believe that this Ji Yuan would actually be such a powerful sword energies cultivator.

    Although he was not too seriously injured as he had a formidable profound defense and could still fight but Ji Yuan''s profound attack had weakened his profound defenses, so he saw no point in continuing the fight anymore.

    He got up weakly and sighed heavily, "You are the strongest sword energies cultivator that I''ve ever met and not any other sword cultivators. I have lost to you. You are indeed a Sword Saint."

    "This is over?" Ji Yuan was startled; it was because he was just warming himself up for a fight and he had thought of overwhelming this Yang Batian''s formidable defenses with his Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Yang Batian ignored Ji Yuan and tossed him his 10 immortal jades as he walked with a heavy sigh away.

    On the VIP spector stand, Ding Jie''Er was giggling now and she said to the Goddess Destiny, "Great Oracle, so does this mean that Yuan Beluga''s number 1 great cmity is over now?"

    Destiny had a sheepish look that this opponent of his was a little weak and this Ji Yuan had not even disyed his Sword Domains yet.

    But she quicklyposed herself to say, "This isn''t his number 1 great cmity yet but a foreshadowing of what it is toe."

    She tried to make it sound as ominous as possible so as to awe her listeners.

    And it worked.

    Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun, Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue were all gasping softly and saying, "I hope that the Great Oracle is able to protect him from harm¡­"

    Destiny whispered to them with a faint smile, "He got his lucky stars in the heavens to thank for having me around."

    But in secret, she was cursing Ji Yuan.

    In the meantime, Ji Yuan was feeling richer by 10 immortal jades as he kept his divine sword, having no idea what was being discussed at the VIP spector stand.

 Chapter 834 Ji Yuan, Do You Dare To Follow Me?

    ?

    After Ji Yuan had finished with his duel, there wererge mutterings from many of the female spiritas that were watching the duel; they were all astonished.

    "Did you see that?"

    "How is it possible for Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to move so swiftly and attack at the same time?"

    "He didn''t charge his sword energies when he moved and has only attacked at thest minute¡­"

    "Is it even possible to disy this amount of profound sword energies in such a short time?"

    Many of the female spiritas were actually titled nobles and their spirit divine senses were extremely sharp.

    They could all tell that Ji Yuan had been using all his profound strength to make his move but when one was moving at such intense speed, it was impossible to make a powerful profound attack at the same time too.

    That was why when the spiritas cultivators were drawing their spiritual talismans, they had to forfeit their movements to focus all their profound strength and concentration into their spirit talismans.

    The same goes for Yang Batian as well; he had to increase his profound power with his Heavens Annihtion Force in order to disy his Seventh Heavens Annihtion Sword.

    By right, Ji Yuan should have readied a defensive or offensive profound art to brace himself for an attack. But he had instead taken on the Seventh Heavens Annihtion Sword directly before its full profound power could be manifested.

    One must know that when profound power is being disyed, it is the same as stabbing a sword on the ground. Every 1 foot into the ground is twice as difficult.

    When profound power is being used, there is an intense profound power that actually prevented another cultivator from getting close until the offensive profound power had faded from use. In a way, being on the constant offensive is also the best defense.

    That is also the reason why power cultivators like Yang Batian that can enhance his profound power several times with his Heavens Annihtion Force are almost unapproachable. Moreover, Yang Batian is also a defense cultivator that could stop a melee attack dead in its track.

    With the constant profound pressure around Yang Batian, it was already toote and extremely difficult for Ji Yuan to muster his profound strength without being affected since everyone could tell that Ji Yuan actually had the weaker profound strength and profound aura.

    All the cultivators, even Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden could not understand how Ji Yuan was not affected by the profound aura of Yang Batian as he made his counter-attack at point nk.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was not affected by the profound aura of Yang Batian was that he had be a Sword Deity and attained a new state of divinity through hisprehension of the sword energies cultivation.

    When a sword saint is able to disy his first sword domain, this also means that the willpower of his sword intents exceeded even the limitation his own profound strength to disy a profound sword art that exceeded even the current cultivation realm.

    And this willpower of a sword saint''s sword intents does not manifest just only when a sword domain is being used but also in the way profound energies are being manifested.

    That was the reason why Yang Batian''s profound aura was unable to stop Ji Yuan from using his profound sword art.

    And Yang Batian was experienced enough to know that it was pointless to continue the fight with Ji Yuan even though he still has a couple of unused trump cards that could be useful in the duel.

    That was why he had surrendered the fight even though he could still continue the fight.

    A sword saint with Ji Yuan''s state of divinity is already considered to be a most feared super cultivator and he is not merely a sword cultivator.

    Yang Batian could only sigh bitterly that he had actually lost to a cultivator that was so much weaker than him.

    In terms of profound power and defense, he was definitely better. But in terms of speed, agility and the use of techniques, this Ji Yuan was much better.

    And during their brief exchanges, Yang Batian had already gauged that Ji Yuan was not even serious in his fight against him.

    As Yang Batian walked to the exit of the battle arena, he turned around to raise his thumb up to Ji Yuan. "Young man, you are really impressive. I am so wrong!"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he raised his hands into a respectful bow, "Senior is also equally impressive and this junior is thankful to senior for showing your mercy on me."

    Yang Batian said loudly, "Do you want to learn my Heavens Annihtion Force and my Heavens Annihtion Sword?" <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "How long will this take me?"

    Yang Batian answered with a smile, "100 to 500 years, depending on how talented the cultivator is. But you should be even faster."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I can be quick with your Heavens Annihtion Sword but not your Heavens Annihtion Force. But it seems that your Heavens Annihtion Sword requires the use of the Heavens Annihtion Force and is a unique sword art. Therefore, I don''t think I will be able to pick it up and have to decline your kind offer."

    Ji Yuan did not even master his old man''s Yang Invincible Profound Arts, which consisted of the Yang Invincible Body Art and the Yang Invincible Sword Art (See Chapter 564).

    His old man had told him that learning his Yang Invincible Body Art would enable him to have an equivalent profound power in profound defense whenever he used his profound sword arts. That was why his Invincible Body Art was also called the Invincible Body.

    That was until his old man had told him that he had to use the Yang Invincible Sword Art in order to have this effect.

    And Ji Yuan had almost fainted on the spot when he had heard that.

    This was actually not the only weakness of the Yang Invincible Body Art. This Yang Invincible Body Art also had the effect of increasing his Yang Essence uncontrobly which made Ji Yuan really ufortable.

    That was why Ji Yuan hadpletely lost interest in cultivating the Yang Invincible Profound Arts after some time as he preferred not to be restricted in his sword arts.

    Yang Batian was about to walk away when he seemed to have thought about something and he had turned his head to say to Ji Yuan again. "I don''t think that you can win me if I am able to disy my Eighth Heavens Annihtion Sword. It is several times more powerful than my Seventh Heavens Annihtion Sword."

    Ji Yuan returned a grin, "And why didn''t you use it then?"

    Yang Batian said with a heavy sigh, "That is because I didn''t learn it yet. It requires me to be fully one with the Heavens and the Earth in its annihting moment. No matter how I cultivate it, my profound energies will always reverse and it is impossible to even use it. Although I can''t but you may be able to. You can take a look at my Heavens Annihtion Sword."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I don''t think I am able to help you."

    Yang Batian smiled, "Not help me. It is to help you. Aren''t you curious about my Heavens Annihtion Sword. If so, why don''t you follow me to my cultivation chamber? Do you dare to follow me?"

    Ji Yuan had already shed next to Yang Batian like an old friend, "You mean you will show me your cultivation slip?"

    Yang Batianughed jovially, "Of course. Or else why should I ask you to take a look?"

    Ji Yuan was alsoughing jovially, "There is no harm in taking a look then¡­"

    At the VIP spector stands, Chu Lixue almost fainted when she saw that Ji Yuan could just casually put aside his animosity for Yang Batian and even followed him.

    "Ji Yuan, you idiot! Can''t you see that this is a trap?!"

    But it was already toote as Ji Yuan and Yang Batian had already disappeared from view.

    Ding Jie''Er was looking at Chu Lixue and she was blinking her eyes, "This is a trap?"

    Chu Lixue said bitterly, "No cultivator will ever show another cultivator their cultivation slips. We need to stop them right away."

    Ding Jie''Er was rmed as she said to one of her female followers, "Quickly stop them from entering the cultivation chamber before it is toote. Don''t let Yuan Beluga enters the cultivation chamber. Once he enters it, we can''t open it from the outside in short notice."

    Xiao Muhan was weakly saying, "That is Ji Yuan. He has no concept of friends and foes after the duel has ended¡­"

    Chu Lixue said with a look of great exasperation, "I think he just wants to take a peek at a superior sword art and this curiosity of his will end up killing him one day."

 Chapter 835 The Heavens Annihilation Profound Arts (1)

    ?

    It was already toote to stop Ji Yuan to enter Yang Batian''s cultivation chamber.

    It was because he was already inside now.

    Yang Batian said to Ji Yuan, "You really have guts to follow me inside my cultivation chamber. You are not afraid that this may be a trap? Have you forgotten that we are allpetitors in the same trial?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Well, in a normal circumstance maybe but you won''t try to set a trap for me. It is because you are still hoping to earn your Trust Points with the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. Am I right?"

    Yang Batian was alsoughing aloud but he soon took out two cultivation slips and said to him, "One is Heavens Annihtion Sword and the other one is my Heavens Annihtion Force. Do you think that it is even possible for me to attain the Eighth Heavens Annihtion Sword?"

    Ji Yuan disyed a curious look at Yang Batian, "You are not afraid that I will secretly learn your profound arts? After all, these two profound arts may be unique only to your celestial sect and even to your direct elite prot¨¦g¨¦."

    "If I dare to show it to you then I am not afraid that you will secretly steal my profound arts from me." Yang Batianughed hoarsely and he was looked quite nonchntly about it.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Seriously?"

    Yang Batian shoved his two cultivation slips into Ji Yuan''s hands, "If you are not interested in my profound arts then you won''t be here in the first ce. So, stop pretending. I don''t mind because you don''t need my profound skills to defeat me."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­"

    Unknown to the two of them, Destiny was actually listening in secret to their conversations through the skull ring that was on Ji Yuan.

    "Well, I can''t promise anything." Ji Yuan started to inspect the cultivation slips with his divine sense.

    Yang Batian knows that this may take some time so he started to close his eyes to meditate.

    When Ji Yuan was inspecting and looking at the cultivation slips with his divine sense, he was astonished at how intrinsic this Heavens Annihtion Force actually was and even more so by the Heavens Annihtion Sword Art.

    To his astonishment, these two cultivation slips were originals.

    One must know that cultivation slips are written in the cultivationnguage of the cultivators which consisted of only gibberish even to the cultivators themselves. In order to decipher the meanings of the cultivation slips, a cultivator must first increase their cultivator realm first in order to understand it with their divine sense.

    A first realm cultivator will naturally unable to understand or read anything with his divine sense beyond his first realm cultivation.

    With a look, most high level cultivators will be able to tell if the cultivation slips are copied or originals.

    Copied cultivation slips are crude and low levels while high level cultivation slips are often more detailed and high levels.

    And it is extremely difficult to copy a high level cultivation slip if the cultivator is not the original creator.

    The creation of a high level cultivation slip will often take years and even centuries, and copying a high level cultivation slip is also not as simple as one think too, which can take 3-10 times more time!

    That is why in the Celestial Realm, there are dedicated cultivation schrs or scribes in the major cities for hire, if one really wants to copy a small portion of a cultivation slip. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Most cultivators are quite secretive about their cultivation slips though and will not share with anyone else beside their own celestial sect.

    Beside the divine sense, a cultivator''s divine state of divinity can also affect the understandings of the cultivation slip.

    That was the reason why Yang Batian had asked Ji Yuan to his cultivation chamber to see if he could help him to understand the 8th Heavens Annihtion Sword Art.

    As for Ji Yuan, the aforementioned two reasons were not the only factors contributing to his knowledge that these two cultivation slips were indeed the originals.

    At the end of the end of the Heavens Annihtion Sword Art, the creator had actually said so by inscribing: If you are able to decipher till the 9th Heavens Annihtion Sword Art, then you must also be a Sword Deity and also a life destructive sword user. For the 9th Heavens Annihtion Sword Art is formless and the only form is the destruction of its target. Created by Immortal Sword Deity Hei Baiyue.

    Ji Yuan looked back at the 8th Heavens Annihtion Sword Art and saw that it requires the sword practitioner to have used the life destructive sword at least 8 times and it must not be a life destructive sword that has a weaker profound power than the 7th Heavens Annihtion Sword Art.

    In short, the cultivator must first be able to survive the use of the life destructive sword at least 8 times. This meaning of the life and destructive sword actually means the use of the cultivator''s life force energies which could result in a life and death situation for them.

    And for Ji Yuan, he happened to be extremely good with the use of his life force energies sword and have even created the life and death sword domain to add his own life force vitality to the use of his sword energies to create a more formidable sword art.

    Ji Yuan began to look with renewed interest at the the Heavens Annihtion Sword; it seemed that this Immortal Sword Deity Hei Baiyue had condensed his sword intentions with the use of the life force energies for the 8th and 9th profound sword art of the Heavens Annihtion Sword.

    That was why Yang Batian was unable toprehend further.

    As for the 9th Heavens Annihtion Sword, it is even more impossible for Yang Batian to learn. It is because he is not a Sword Deity and the 9th Heavens Annihtion Sword requires the sword practitioner to use the life destructive sword that has the profound power of the 8th Heavens Annihtion Sword 9 times.

    But Ji Yuan, his Grand Cross was actually a life force energies sword art and it already had the profound power of the 8th Heavens Annihtion Sword.

    And he had already used his grand cross profound sword art numerous times and even his life and death domain with his Grand Cross, naming it the ''Ultimate Grand Cross''.

    He began to wonder if this 9th Heavens Annihtion Sword would actually be even stronger than his Ultimate Grand Cross?

    This shouldn''t be right?

    His Ultimate Grand Cross is his sword domain and he can only use it only once¡­

    Out of curiosity, he started to look at the second cultivation slip now which was the Heavens Annihtion Force¡­

 Chapter 836 The Heavens Annihilation Profound Arts (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now looking at the second cultivation slip which contained the Heavens Annihtion Force.

    The first line of this Heavens Annihtion Force had already stunned him.

    In order to practice the Heavens Annihtion Force, the cultivator must first be one with his profound defense and power.

    That exined why Yang Batian was equally good with both profound defense and power at the same time.

    Therefore, this Heavens Annihtion Force was unsuitable for Ji Yuan since he emphasized more on his profound power than anything else, and he had purposely dropped his profound defense on purpose to deliver more punches to his targets and also because he needed more added speed.

    Most cultivators would wonder why Ji Yuan did not spend more time on his profound defenses; it was because in order to have really good profound defenses, a cultivator must have a superior internal profound art and this cultivation practice requires an intense long period of cultivation in order to gather the spiritual force into the internal profound energies to be used as their profound aura and defense.

    It was not easy for Ji Yuan to do especially when he was only a young cultivator at 500 years old and he was extremely active.

    Also, in the past, he did not have enough cultivation resources for long periods of close door cultivation.

    He began to skip a lot of information in this Heavens Annihtion Force as he continued to read with his divine sense.

    It seemed that this Heavens Annihtion Force is also divided into 9 stages, simr to the Heavens Annihtion Sword.

    But in order to get to a new stage, the cultivator must first obtain an advancement in the Heavens Annihtion Sword first.

    Therefore, this Yang Batian could only master this Heavens Annihtion Force till to the 7th level.

    Ji Yuan was soon frowning; shouldn''t this be the other way round instead? First the internal profound foundation and then the sword art?

    This is the most basic for all the cultivators; even though Ji Yuan has a basic foundation in internal profound cultivation but he has understood this.

    The more he read this cultivation slip, the more perplexed he was; it was because he had suddenly realized that he did understand this cultivation slip with his divine sense even though his internal profound art sucks big time even though there are too many secret cultivations of the internal profound arts that he did not understand and many of the superior ones required the cultivator to have several hundreds of years to fullyprehended.

    Internal profound arts when reaching a high level requires the cultivator to understand what are the Forehead''s Three Petals, Cloud Ascending Body, Singrity Point of the Heavens, Soul Dividing Senses, the Invisible Eyes and many more.

    Even a master of an internal profound cultivation could not im to know all the high level basics of cultivation as these high level basics all require hundreds, thousands and even a lifetime to master.

    Ji Yuan did not want to waste his time especially when he has no cultivation resources to start on the internal profound arts.

    Even if he has the cultivation resources, he does not have the cultivation knowledge to start and the bacsh to his own cultivation core may be severe if he fails.

    There were countless masters of the internal profound arts from even the major celestial sects that had gone into seclusion for hundreds of years and they still had the same blocker when they had emerged.

    Actually, the same goes for all kinds of cultivations too.

    And that was why this Yang Baitian had decided to ask Ji Yuan for help and even sharing his secret cultivation slips with him.

    Also, there may be a hidden price attached to an internal profound art too and it may even restrict a cultivator in other areas.

    Ji Yuan remembered when he and Ling Feiyue had found a secret cultivation library in the trial where Xiang Li was, they had discovered a Dark Solstice Profound Art which was a secret internal profound art from one of Ling Feiyue''s rival unorthodox celestial sects.

    This Dark Solstice Profound Art actually slows down the pace of regaining profound strength by 90% and no number of divine pills will be able to replenish a cultivator''s profound strength. But it can offer a burst of strong profound power when this internal profound art is being used.

    But this was not what caused Ling Feiyue tough nonstop; it was the warning that the cultivator of this Dark Solstice Profound Art should be warned not to take the immortal ascension as it will surely fail.

    Ji Yuan was now frowning suddenly as he read the cultivation slip with his divine sense.

    What the heck?

    He had actually understood this cultivation slip via his divine sense, with his rudimentary cultivation knowledge in internal profound art?!

    He skipped to thest part of the Heavens Annihtion Force where this Sword Deity Hei Baiyue said: If you can read till to thest part then you are definitely not an internal profound art cultivator but an energy profound art cultivator. Not only an energy profound art cultivator but an extremely high level one. This cultivation slip is written for two types of practitioners, an internal profound cultivator and an energy profound cultivator¡­"

    "Hahaha, I hope that you are not offended by the false practice at the start. I am a genius sword cultivator so I don''t want anyone to learn my profound arts. If you are able to read this message, then you are qualified to be my direct prot¨¦g¨¦."

    Ji Yuan muttered with disbelief to himself: What the heck? Is this Sword Deity a joker? He had actually spent so much effort to inscribe two sets of profound inscriptions into this cultivation slip and he had joked about the bnce between power and defense in order to advance to the next stage¡­

    The ninth stage of this Heavens Annihtion Force was actually extremelyplex. But Ji Yuan soon realized the reason why; this Sword Deity Hei Baiyue had actually rewritten the entire Heavens Annihtion Force and revealed the true practice.

    If one would have the Heavens Annihtion Sword cultivation slip and not this Heavens Annihtion Force cultivation slip, then they would not even advance to the next real stage.

    Ji Yuan found out that even the Heavens Annihtion Sword was fake and the real Heavens Annihtion Sword required the second half of the Heavens Annihtion Force to understand.

    Only when he had read the Heavens Annihtion Force, then the divine inscriptions for the real Heavens Annihtion Sword would then appear.

    This Sword Deity Hei Baiyue was seriously a joker.

    But Ji Yuan was able to quickly understand it as many of the principles were actually quite simr to the Yang Invincible Profound Arts which required the cultivator to first practice the sword then the internal profound arts.

    This tested the cultivator''s ability to reverse his internal energies and his guts to use the life destructive sword without killing himself first.

    The highest level of this Heavens Annihtion Force is actually not a profound aura at all but actually the mystique sword aura.

    Ji Yuan was immediately excited; it was because he had heard that only the immortal sword saints would be able to form the mystique sword auras. But this Sword Deity Hei Baiyue could actually inscribe it for a low level cultivator like himself?

    Wait a minute, he called himself the Immortal Sword Deity. Does this mean that he is actually an immortal sword deity in the first ce?

    When Ji Yuan had finished digesting all the cultivation methods in these two cultivation slips, he looked up to see that Yang Batian was now staring at him.

    "You have finally opened your eyes now. It has been 5 days."<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What? It has been 5 days?"

    But it felt like only a short amount of time had passed.

    Yang Batian said unhappily, "For the past 5 days, I have been reforming the defensive arrays in this cultivation chamber because the people outside are too persistent and I have used no less than 1 000 000 high grade spirit stones."

    Ji Yuanughed as he tossed back the 10 immortal jades back to him, "Take this back then. 1 million high grade spirit stones is nothingpared to these 10 immortal jades."

    "You think that I am a beggar?" Yang Batian said unhappily but he still took the 10 immortal jades nevertheless.

    "So, what do you manage to find in the past 5 days? Or have you been secretly learning from my cultivation slips?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he returned the two cultivation slips back to Yang Batian, "Well, you say that I can secretly learn. Haha¡­"

    Yang Batian frowned, "Can''t you lie to make me happier?"

    Ji Yuan put on a straight face to say, "I am renowned as an honest cultivator¡­"

    But he quickly said, "After several cycles of cultivation meditation, I have found the solution for you. You need to disy the life destructive sword of the 7th Heavens Annihtion Sword 8 times if you want to go beyond the 7th stage. You have to match the profound power of the 8th Heavens Annihtion Sword first with your life force energies first."

    Yang Batian looked shocked, "Really? This is suicide¡­ I am no longer young. Where can I find the life force vitality to do so? Do you know what this means? Using life force energies is like burning your life essences and it is called the life and death ordeal as well. No sane cultivators will use it. Are you joking with me?"

    "Wait a minute. How do you know about this part? Unless¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "The reason why I can read it is because I am an expert in life force energies."

    Then he had taken out his immortal scabbard and mmed it heavily on the floor.

    Yang Batian stared at the immortal scabbard in front of him, "This is a true immortal scabbard?"

    Then Ji Yuan took out Xiang Li and Anyang from his immortal scabbard, "I am now going to disy my Grand Cross for you to see¡­"

    Yang Batian gasped again, "You have two emperor-step divine sword? Do you even have the profound strength to wield 2 emperor-step divine swords in the first ce?"

    He was gasping again when Ji Yuan had suddenly lifted up his 2 divine swords in front of him.

    "Not only can I lift them but I have also perfectly divine harmonized with my two divine swords. Haha¡­"

    Yang Batian said weakly, "It seems that there is no chance that I can even best you. I am convinced now¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Outside the cultivation chamber.

    Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and their female followers were still throwing hundreds of their spirit talismans on the sealed gate of the cultivation chamber.

    Even Divine Consorts Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were in the scene and they were lending their support by disying their profound talismans to break down the sealed gate of this cultivation chamber.

    Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun had actually asked the Goddess Destiny to help them but she simply replied, "I am merely an observer. This will affect the bnce."

    This was a lie because she could easily have kicked the sealed gate opened with her mystic profound arts.

    Destiny was just waiting to see if this may be a trap as she was spying on Ji Yuan all this while.

    As for Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue and the Goddess Destiny, they were all quietly watching by the side.

    All of a sudden Destiny said with an unpleasant look to Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun, "You may stop now. Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is fine. And he will be out soon."

    Now that the Great Oracle had spoken, naturally everyone was totally convinced.

    After all, they had the highest regard for their Great Oracle.

    All of a sudden, the gate of the cultivation gate had swung opened.

    And Ji Yuan and Yang Batian were both holding each other by the shoulders as though they were close brothers.

    They were bothughing jovially, "Brother Yang Batian! Brother Ji Yuan!"

    This stunned everyone.

    Chu Lixue asked curiously, "What are the two of you been doing there for the past 5 days?!"

    With a heavy sigh, Xiao Muhan muttered, "Isn''t this obvious? The real Brother Ji Yuan is never interested in any maidens¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had kept quiet because Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin and Chu Lixue were all staring coldly at him.

 Chapter 837 The Heavens Annihilation Profound Arts (3)

    ?

    Outside the cultivation chamber.

    Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and their female followers were still throwing hundreds of their spirit talismans on the sealed gate of the cultivation chamber.

    Even Divine Consorts Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were in the scene and they were lending their support by disying their profound talismans to break down the sealed gate of this cultivation chamber.

    All of a sudden, the gate of the cultivation chamber had swung opened.

    And Ji Yuan and Yang Batian were both holding each other by the shoulders as though they were close brothers.

    They were bothughing jovially, "Brother Yang Batian! Brother Ji Yuan!"

    This stunned everyone.

    Chu Lixue asked curiously, "What are the two of you been doing there for the past 5 days?!"

    With a heavy sigh, Xiao Muhan muttered, "Isn''t this obvious? The real Brother Ji Yuan is never interested in any maidens¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had kept quiet because Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin and Chu Lixue were all staring coldly at him.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said to the 4 divine consorts, Xiao Muhan and to Chu Lixue. "There is nothing to worry about. I am just cultivating inside with Senior Brother Yang Batian here."

    Chu Lixue looked a little sheepish as she was the one that had warned everyone that Ji Yuan may have fallen into a trap.

    But she quickly disyed her divine smile, "We are so worried for you. You have been in there for the past 5 days."

    "I didn''t realize that I''ve been inside for so long. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er asked curiously, "What have you been doing inside?"

    This time it was Yang Batian that had spoken, "Brother Ji Yuan is trying to help me to improve upon my sword art. He is indeed a cultivation expert."

    Ding Jie''Er said unhappily, "Next time, ask me for permission first. After all, I am your patron and you are my champion. Why did you keep replenishing the defensive arrays in the cultivation chamber instead of opening it? Look, I have even alerted Divine Consort Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin to my ce for nothing."

    It was the truth.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were both looking at Ji Yuan with a look of concern but they were also looking blissful when they saw that nothing had happened to Ji Yuan.

    Yang Batian exined nonchntly, "Brother Ji Yuan is in deep meditation and I don''t want anyone to disturb him. Moreover, this is my cultivation chamber, am I right? By entering it, it is already a deration that the cultivator inside should not be disturbed."

    Ding Jie''Er did not know how to answer him when he had said that.

    She paused to think before she merely said, "Ji Yuan is my guest. I don''t care what you do with your cultivation chamber but you shouldn''t bring my guest into your cultivation chamber without my approval."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Little Jie''Er, it is alright. Senior Brother Yang Batian just want to show me his profound arts. And I have also followed him willingly. In fact¡­"

    He began to chuckle as he patted Ding Jie''Er on her shoulders, "I have also learnt a new profound sword art too. So, I am not in the least disadvantage by this."

    Although this act of Ji Yuan was an unwitting act but Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun, Chu Lixue and even many of the female followers of the divine consorts were all gasping softly.

    It is because Ding Jie''Er is after all a divine consort and Ji Yuan cannot pat her as and when he likes. Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er has a public image to maintain and this patting by Ji Yuan looked like he was rubbing her bared shoulders.

    They were not exactly angered by this disrespect but rather they were envious that the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan was actually patting the Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    Ding Jie''Er lowered her eyes with great shyness, "Is that so? Then forget about it."

    She was well aware that Ji Yuan was touching her but she did not say anything about it and was quite blissful to allow him to pat her bared shoulders.

    Yang Batian saw it but he thought that Ji Yuan was in deep trouble because of this.

    So it was up for him to save Ji Yuan fromnding himself in trouble.

    He interrupted with a curious look that was in his heart, "Junior Brother Ji Yuan, I am just curious about something¡­"

    Ji Yuan got distracted by Yang Batian and he had turned around to address him, "Yes, Senior Brother Yang Batian?"

    Ding Jing''Er gasped softly when Ji Yuan''s hands had left her shoulders and she looked a little disappointed: Yang Batian! I hate you!

    Yang Batian on the other hand was looking quite pleased with himself for saving the honor of Ji Yuan in front of so many others.

    Heughed before asking, "I wonder to what extent did you manage to learn from my Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts?"

    Ji Yuan pondered for a while before heughed, "Actually none."

    Yang Batian: ¡­

    He looked even a little disappointed; it was because he did not mind if Ji Yuan had learnt a stroke or two from his Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts and he could im that creditter on.

    But he had actually said none after looking at it for 5 days?!

    He could not even master the First Heavens Annihtion Sword after 5 days?

    Didn''t he just say that he has learn a new profound sword art just now?

    Yang Batian''s pupils shrank with great disbelief.

    Ji Yuan was not lying actually.

    It was because he soon figured out that this Immortal Sword Deity Hei Baiyue was a joker.

    And Ji Yuan was also a joker sometimes too.

    Only a joker would understand another joker.

    The whole point of the Heavens Annihtion Sword and the Heavens Annihtion Force were not to impart any formidable sword art or internal profound force.

    If the cultivator could only use their cultivation divine sense to understand the Ninth Heavens Annihtion Sword, then he must already possess a high degree of cultivation in using the life destructive sword.

    And there was no need to use a simr power profound sword art.

    That was why Ji Yuan did not spend the 5 days to try to remember the Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts and 5 days were actually too short.

    Instead, he had quickly figured out that this Immortal Sword Deity Hei Baiyue had hidden a glimpse of the cultivation of the sword aura in the two Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts.

    Armed with the cultivation conceptws of the Yang Invincible Profound Arts and his own ingenuity at reading the Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts, he was able to merge his sword spirit into his energy meridians.

    And this new profound art was the mystique sword aura that he had been seeking to attain all these years!

    This was also a secret that all the sword saints know but did not reveal to the other cultivators.

    Sword aura is not just a defensive profound aura but it can also increase the profound power of the sword cultivators too!

    And the secret to learning sword auras from the two Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts was the tempering the life destructive sword.

    Life as the protective aura and Destructive as the profound power!

    This new enlightenment also allows Ji Yuan to freely use his life force energies sword from now onward and it was no longer a risky gamble on his life whenever he used it.

    Destiny interrupted impatiently as she stepped forward to say to Ji Yuan, "Now that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan hase out of his self-imposed cultivation, shall we have a little talk now?"

    Ji Yuan hadpletely forgotten about the Goddess Destiny.

    He answered. "Um, I guess yes?"

 Chapter 838 Second Time with the Goddess Destiny

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now alone with Destiny and he was curiously looking at her, "Your goddess, you have something to tell me?"

    Before walking away with Destiny, he had heard from the other divine consorts that the Great Oracle was indeed urate in her divination and how uncanny it was. She had reassured them not to worry about Ji Yuan, and her prediction was proven right.

    Also, Ji Yuan had met this ''Number 1 Invincible Yang Batian'' out of the blue and he was further convinced that she may be a real oracle after all.

    So this time, he was much more polite to her.

    But he was still wary of her.

    It was because she was after all, an immortal goddess and there was no telling what she may do to him. In front of an immortal goddess with a much higher cultivation realm, Ji Yuan felt like a fly.

    He may have defeated a powerful immortal divine lord like Kong Rong but this Goddess Destiny seemed to be on another level.

    After all, he could not even defeat the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha in her Secret Oracle Gate and she was the mistress of the Secret Oracle Gate and possibly even the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha as well.

    Her cultivation realm therefore must be even stronger than the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    But since he had detected no killing intents from her and she seemed to be a benevolent immortal goddess, this time round he was more willing to chat in private with her.

    Destiny quietly said to him, "Sit down first and I shall tell you about my background."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "This won''t be unnecessary. I was only kidding thest time."

    Destiny almost shook from rage within her; even before she had started, this ''master'' had alreadymanded that this would not be necessary.

    Then how, could she even remove her ve cor?!

    Ji Yuan saw that she was suddenly quiet so he chuckled, "Well, if you want to tell me about this. Why not then?"

    Destiny almost broke into a cold sweat after hermand had been lifted.

    Is he trying to fool her?!

    But she forced herself to disy a beautiful smile before saying with her beautiful voice that was soft but was also rity, "As you may have already known, my name is Destiny and I''m from the Dark Entropy Realm."

    Ji Yuan nodded; he remembered.

    "You must also be curious why then I am also in the Spirit Divine Realm. That is because this Spirit Divine Realm is linked to both the Greater Spirit Realm and the Dark Entropy Realm. At the very beginning of this divine realm history, the forces ofw and chaos had fought for supremacy for this divine realm¡­"

    "My race, the Chaos Race lost to the Lawful Race that is also called the spiritas. Since then, this divine realm has belonged to the Lawful Race and the immortal ascension for this divine realm will lead to the Greater Spirit Realm and not the Dark Entropy Realm."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Then are you human or spiritas?"

    Destiny smiled wryly, "Do I look like a spiritas to you?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Then you are a human goddess?"

    Destiny smiled, "You can''t really call me a human goddess just like I can''t call you a human because you are a celestial. Put it this way, I am always an immortal goddess of the Dark Entropy Realm. Got it? Just like you are always a celestial of the Celestial Realm."

    "Compared to the Dark Entropy Realm, the Greater Spirit Realm is a rtively new immortal realm that the True Devil God had craved for the Lawful Race. Therefore, in the beginning of this immortal realm history, there is no ascended immortals yet and only the fierce primeval beasts."

    "The Lawful Race was once led by the True Devil God and sad to say, my Chaos Race can''t hold a candle against the burning fire of the True Devil God¡­"

    "Well, you don''t have to worry about that ugly True Devil God anymore. That is because he is already dead. Haha." Ji Yuan interrupted with a chuckle.

    Destiny was suddenly staring coldly at Ji Yuan, "You think that you are a beautiful cultivator? I doubt that you can evenpare to the great beauty of the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan was startled by the suddenly coldness of Destiny, "Erm, you have seen his true face before?"

    Destiny answered, "Nope."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck?!

    Then how the heck does she know that the True Devil God has a more beautiful face than me?!

    And why is she so cold all of a sudden?

    She should be happy that I am cursing the True Devil God for her¡­

    Destiny withdrew her coldness all of a sudden when she had suddenly remembered that she still had her ve cor, before continuing in a casual voice. "Although I have never seen his true face before but I know that the Great Beyond Goddess has seen a glimpse of his true face and she hadmented that the True Devil God isn''t ugly."

    Ji Yuan said silently: Maybe the Great Beyond Goddess has a poor taste, you know. So your taste may be equally as poor too.

    But he did not dare to say it out loud because he still valued his precious little life.

    Destiny continued but she was suddenly mncholy, "Although we are on opposite sides but he is an honorable opponent and he had let me off several times during our battles¡­"

    Ji Yuan could not resist an unpleasant frown, "That is because he is probably a lecherous immortal god. That''s why he had let you off¡­"

    "That is not true!" Destiny was suddenly furious as she raised her hand to p Ji Yuan but all of a sudden there was a restrictive force that prevented her from doing so; she hadpletely forgotten about her ve cor in her rage.

    She said exasperatingly, "You didn''t know what the Great Beyond Goddess had once tried to do in her madness, do you? She actually wanted to destroy the 6 Immortal Divine Realms!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "That was only because the True Devil God had killed the 11 Prime Gods from the Great Beyond Realm and it caused great grief to the Great Beyond Goddess."

    All of a sudden Destiny was frozen, "How did you know about this?"

    But Ji Yuan was distracted by a loud transmission.

    It was the voice of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan! You must immediatelye with us now! A lone cultivator is now fighting with the Goddess Ai Tina and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei in the tavern. She called herself Number 1 and she is strong. Divine Consort Tang Manni has already departed by flying there now. Hurry, we are all going there now¡­"

    The transmission looked urgent and Ji Yuan could sense the urgency in her message.

    Therefore, Ji Yuan had quickly dashed out of the room.

    Destiny was also startled but not by the message; it was because she had not finished telling Ji Yuan about her background yet!

    "Wait! Don''t go yet!"

    2. Actually I can read mandarin quite well. Gold Core Cultivators'' trantion is actually wrong. The original word is Jingang and golden celestial is more urate. *tears*

    And also foundation is also wrong. It actually refers to the state of divinity.

    I know, cos I used to write in a jjdxc for A Martial Odyssey in mandarin a long time ago:X

    So I know that most of the trantion are just machine tranted and doesn''t have the original meaning. The irony is that the machine and wrong trantions are now the norm now instead of the proper trantions.

 Chapter 839 Number 1 is in Snowy Pavilion City

    ?

    As soon as Ji Yuan went outside the room that he was with Destiny, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun said to him. "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, we will give you a lift."

    And as they hurriedlyunched off into the sky with their profound animus, they had also gripped both of his arms, side by side.

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and Destiny flew just behind Ji Yuan.

    As for Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan, they were left behind to run back quickly to the tavern to see what was going on there.

    Chu Lixue muttered weakly and only Xiao Muhan was near enough to hear her, "I am a peaked great saintess but why is that I feel that everyone is depending on my Junior Brother Ji Yuan instead of me?"

    She was not weaker than Ji Yuan but ever since Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess had aided Ji Yuan to gain his first sword domain, he had be much stronger than her.

    It was not because of this one sword domain only but Ji Yuan had actually developed several sword domains which shocked her and her old man.

    Not only that, Ji Yuan had also gained the use of an immortal scabbard that was gifted by Bai Qianfeng which enabled him to use two emperor-step divine swords at the same time.

    As a sword saintess herself with several times more sword cultivation than Ji Yuan, she felt that the heavens were most unfair to her.

    The only thing the heavens were fair to her was that she had unwittingly advanced her sword spirit to the ultra sword spirit. But she was too awkward to tell her old man that she had only gained the ultra sword spirit because she had been copting with Ji Yuan.

    I have better hide this from my old man. This is too awkward to exin¡­

    Ji Yuan, you have better don''t let my old man knows about your ultra sword spirit too. Or better yet, watch your mouth and don''t let my old man knows about this¡­

    -

    -

    -

    At the tavern.

    To be exact. Outside of it.

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei were all perspiring heavily; it was because this female cultivator with a beautiful silver hair that reflected even the sunlight were extremely formidable. Against the two of them, she was still looking as nonchnt as ever.

    And she had not unsheathed her sword yet!

    She even had pointed ears but their instinct told them that she was not a spiritas.

    At the very start, it was only the Goddess Ai Tina that had fought her.

    This female cultivator that called herself Number 1 had suddenly barged in and had asked, "Is this the tavern where the so called Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is?"

    Maiden Flower Ju had returned a smile, "Yes, it is."

    This female cultivator also returned a smile, "That''s good. Because I am going to challenge and kill him today."

    This immediately caused many of the female spiritas in the tavern to stand up and they were all looking with angry stares at this insolent cultivator.

    This also attracted the attention of the Goddess Ai Tina who said coldly as she walked downstairs to greet this insolent cultivator, "Who dares to disturb my peace and rest?"

    ¡¤?¦Èm "You look really different from the others and you must be that immortal goddess Ai Tina. You may address me as Number 1."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was startled: Didn''t the Great Oracle says that Ji Yuan will have a Number 1 great cmitying his way? Then this is the one?"

    But she quickly said coldly to this Number 1, "I am afraid that he isn''t here today. You can leave now."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked, "Then when will he be back? I can wait for him."

    The Goddess Ai Tina hummed coldly, "I am afraid that I have to drive you out of here."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily chuckled, "Only I can invite myself to leave, not the others. Unless of course you want to ept a duel from me?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "I don''t need a duel to drive you away because¡­"

    She had suddenly disyed two spirit talismans and had sent it to fly this Number 1.

    But Number 1 simply swung her scabbard and the two talismans exploded on her left and right, before exploding with a bigger explosion on her left and right again.

    However, Number 1 was still unscathed.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was rmed now; it was because she had sent her two spirit talismans directly in front of this Number 1 but she could quickly deflect it sideways even before her two spirit talismans could even detonate yet.

    Her attacking speed was simply too astonishing!

    The Goddess Ai Tina could not tell what this Number 1''s cultivation realm was, so she asked. "What is your cultivation realm?"

    Number 1 merely said, "Is it necessary to know my cultivation realm? I''ll be only using the seventh cultivation realm to fight with you. Or is the Goddess Ai Tina afraid of fighting with a mere cultivator with only the seventh cultivation realm?"

    This was a p to the face of the Goddess Ai Tina and she answered coldly, "A duel so shall it be. Let''s fight outside then!"

    Number 1 nodded before she exited outside.

    By now even the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had also received a transmission that there was a trouble maker today and she had hastened her steps toe down.

    Maiden Flower Ju quickly reported to her what was going on.

    And the first thing that she had heard was that there was a female cultivator that called herself Number 1 that had challenged the Goddess Ai Tina.

    She looked startled even as the Goddess Ai Tina and Number 1 had both exited the tavern for their duel outside.

    The reason why the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was slow toe down even though Number 1 had been waiting for tens of minutes was because she was meditating on the immortal profound circles that the Great Beyond Goddess had taught her for the past 5 days.

    It was only when Maiden Flower Ju had activated the emergency transmission that she was finally able to arouse Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei from her deep meditation.

    Xu Yifei had a sharp spirit divine sense even when she was in deep meditation and she immediately knows that something terrible may have popped out.

    And as shee down, she was just in time to witness the fight between Number 1 and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    And she too, was startled by the terrifying speed that this Number 1 had just disyed.

    Number 1?

    Is she the Number 1 great cmity that the Great Oracle has said?

    She did not have the time to ponder this.

    Xu Yifei together with dozens of her female followers began to stream out of the tavern to witness this duel between Number 1 and the Goddess Ai Tina.

 Chapter 840 Number 1 vs. the Goddess Ai Tina

    ?

    Number 1 and the Goddess Ai Tina were now in the streets and their presence had suddenly attracted hundreds of onlookers.

    "There is going to be a fight¡­"

    "It seems that our Goddess Ai Tina is going to fight with someone¡­"

    "Who is so stupid as to challenge our Goddess Ai Tina?"

    "We can take care of this insolent person ourselves¡­"

    "Call the others quickly to see¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quickly whispered to Maiden Flower Ju, "I have a bad feeling about this. Quickly send a transmission to Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and ask them all toe and help the Goddess Ai Tina."

    Maiden Flower Ju was startled, "Ask all the divine consorts toe to help our Goddess Ai Tina? Maybe our Goddess Ai Tina is able to defeat this Number 1 with ease?"

    Xu Yifei had hoped so too.

    She had witnessed the Goddess Ai Tina in actualbat and she had a good gauge between the disparity between Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina. And she felt that this Number 1 was a super cultivator and she had this nonchntly look that made her really ufortable.

    Unless a cultivator was sure of their own ability, they would not be offending even the Goddess Ai Tina, the entire city and even all the divine consorts of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    Moreover, she had remembered what the Great Oracle had said about a Number 1 great cmity.

    She whispered back to Maiden Flower Ju, "There is no time to wait to wait until the duel is decisive. Remember what the Great Oracle has said? So quickly warn Ji Yuan and the other divine consorts now!"

    Maiden Flower Ju was gasping, "Right. The Great Oracle is always 100% urate. This must be what she has been trying to warn us about. I''ll do it right away."

    With that, she had disappeared into the tavern again.

    The Goddess Ai Tina took a subtle look at Xu Yifei before nodding slightly.

    Even without knowing the exchanges between Xu Yifei and Maiden Flower Ju, she was well wary what Xu Yifei was biding Maiden Flower Ju to do.

    Although the Goddess Ai Tina was renowned for her cultivation achievement as the First Divine Consort, she also possessed a high intellect.

    So, she knows that she had to buy some time.

    She smiled wryly and even casually to Number 1, "Before we start on our duel, may I know the name of my opponent first? It is most unfair to me if you are able to know my name while I have no idea who my opponent is?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I am Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily."

    The Goddess Ai Tina had a perplexed look, "You have two titles? Number 1 and the White Lily."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao answered nonchntly, "Number 1 is my ranked title while White Lily is my personal title."

    "I see now!"

    Where they were exchanging in the wide streets, two celestial maidens were gasping with shock; they were Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing. They had been looking for Ji Yuan for the past 8 days to try to warn him about Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily and right now, they had actually seen her in person!

    The two of them were lucky to have been taken to the same vicinity when they had entered into the trial portal. After several days of investigation, they had discovered unwittingly that Ji Yuan was actually quite renowned in the city where they had spawned to and that he was in Snowy Pavilion City.

    They cursed their stupidity because they had thought that the spiritas here would not know who Ji Yuan was and therefore, they did not ask them.

    Actually they were not the only ones that have thought the same, even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao did not think anyone would know Ji Yuan too and that was why she had been searching in vain for 3 days.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were also lucky that Snowy Pavilion City was quite near to where they had spawned. So they quickly set off immediately to Snowy Pavilion City.

    But before they could find Ji Yuan, they had found Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily instead!

    They were quite startled that this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not as terrifying looking as Yun Chi had told them and in fact, she was a beautiful maiden with an elegant look.

    At this moment, the Goddess Ai Tina was saying to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. "I don''t use a weapon. I can see that you have a sword. So why don''t you disy your sword before we start on our duel?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "This won''t be necessary. I have not met the opponent that deserves me to unsheathe my sword yet."

    When she had said that, the hundreds of onlookers were all looking quite angry as her sheer arrogance and disrespect for their Goddess Ai Tina.

    The main reason that she did not say was because her divine sword was a true divinity sword and it would give her an unfair advantage if she chooses to use it. That was why she had concealed it with her profound strength in her scabbard.

    By now, the hundreds of onlookers had actually rapidly increased to more than two thousand and more onlookers were swarming to take a curious look.

    That was also how Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi had found Number 1 in this way.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly, "Then don''t you regret this."

    She added, "I don''t want to take advantage of you. So why don''t you make the first move first?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly, "This won''t be necessary. I am just waiting for Ji Yuan who is your personal guard to be here and this is only a mere entertainment for me before he arrives."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled weakly at this irony; Ji Yuan who was her personal guard of honor was not here to protect her and instead, she was just buying time for him to appear.

    She simply answered, "I don''t have time to waste on you!"

    And she had quickly disyed 4 spirit talismans and had sent them flying toward Number 1.

    However, this time round, she did not send it to fly side by side but arranged it to be in asymmetrical order so that the talismans would explode if one of the talismans was hit.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had immediately swung one of the talismans aside, exploding it to one side.

    The Goddess Ai Tina timed it with her profound strength as she shouted, "Explode!"

    There was also another way to explode her spirit talismans and that was through her profound strength!

    And the three talismans began to explode furiously upon Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and even exploded again with 3 times the furies!

    The fiery profound energies that were generated shook the entire street and many of the onlookers were smiling because their Goddess Ai Tina had just caught this insolent challenger a terrible lesson and she may not even lived to see another day.

    However, the Goddess Ai Tina was well aware that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was still very much alive despite all of her dreadful profound sts.

    So when Ding Xiaoxiao had emerged through the dreadful profound energies unscathed and had shed to attack her with her scabbard, the Goddess Ai Tina had already prepared a defensive talisman to repel her.

    On the forehead of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was a sword spirit and she had disyed her profound sword art with an exceeding profound power that could neutralize the profound power of her talisman attacks.

    In that instant, spirit runes began to form like a barrier around the Goddess Ai Tina at the point where Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had attacked her.

    Then the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly disyed two gigantic spirit talismans of the eighth immortal profound power in front of the barrier, "I am expecting this from you. So die¡­"

    All of a sudden, the two gigantic talismans had exploded furiously with 5 times the fiery explosions before exploding again with 10 times the explosions!

    This disy of profound powers from their Goddess and Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina hadpletely awed all the onlookers for they had never seen such mighty disy of profound energies that could be caused by any spirit talismans!

    ¡¤?¦Èm Moreover, it could even explode a second time too!

    "Sword Dao of the Small Universe!"

    All of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao had swung the burning profound energies aside with her scabbard and she had even shattered the defensive barrier in front of the Goddess Ai Tina in a brilliant burst of runic light!

    Her scabbard had not only shattered the invisible runic barrier but had also hit the Goddess Ai Tina with such force that immediately the white immortal profound aura that was being disyed by her was also shattered!

    This caused the Goddess Ai Tina to flung backward as she coughed out golden blood!

    Xu Yifei quickly shed forward to catch hold of the Goddess Ai Tina who was staring nkly with shock at the explicit profound power that was being disyed by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao!

    When Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had used her sword domain the Sword Dao of the Small Universe, everyone could feel an intense profound power of her sword intentions that was exploding outward and this outward explosion had even caused the 8th immortal profound power of the two giant talismans to look pale inparison.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiaomented, "Your defensive spirit talisman is indeed strong. I can''t even kill you with my sword domain. But you are just a lowly immortal cultivator and it is only reasonable that you lose to me."

    When she had said that, all the onlookers were staring angrily at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao!

    "Too arrogant!"

    "This is too insolent!"

    "She dares to call our mighty Goddess Ai Tina a lowly immortal goddess?! She deserves to die!"

    "Why don''t we all attack and lynch her instead?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had taken out the Divine Shield of Ai Tina and said coldly, "I am afraid your fight isn''t over yet."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "You want to fight with me? Even your Goddess Ai Tina has lost to me."

    As she said that, her eyes were appraising the immortal divine shield that was hovering in front of Xu Yifei. "This shield seems tough to break."

    Xu Yifei answered coldly, "Not me alone but I will be challenging you with my Goddess Ai Tina. Since you are so strong, you don''t mind. Am I right to say so?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao answered casually, "I don''t mind. The two of you can fight me together."

    This further enraged all the onlookers!

    "This Number 1 dares to fight two divine consorts at the same time?"

    "If we don''t teach her a lesson, our Snowy Pavilion City will be in great disrepute¡­"

    "I wonder what is her background?"

    "She has pointed ears so she may be a half human that practices the human cultivation instead of the spirit cultivation¡­"

    "Isn''t the human cultivation a lowly cultivation?"

    "She can defeat our Goddess Ai Tina¡­ impossible¡­"

 Chapter 841 Number 1 Vs Ai Tina And Xu Yifei

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to Xu Yifei, "This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is really strong. She is an immortal cultivator too."

    When she had said that, the onlookers and Xu Yifei were all expressing shocks and surprises.

    "This silver hair maiden is an immortal¡­"

    "Then it is not shameful that our Goddess Ai Tina isn''t able to defeat her¡­"

    "She is from the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    "Just like that Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong?"

    "But she is a female, right? Shouldn''t she be on our side against the depraved divine lords?"

    "Maybe she is a depraved harlot of the divine lords and they had sent her here to kill our Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    Xu Yifei murmured, "She is an immortal cultivator?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao however continued to look nonchnt.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said slowly, "Even though she has restricted her profound strength to the seventh cultivation realm but it is hard to conceal her real state of divinity when she uses her sword domain¡­"

    With a short hesitation, she was forced to admit weakly. "She is an immortal cultivator of the ninth immortal positioning. Although I can''t tell what is her exact immortal positioning but she is really very strong."

    Xu Yifei was startled as she whispered, "Then it will be hard to beat her together? Not even Master Ji Yuan?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina softly whispered, "Not even Ji Yuan, I am afraid. Maybe only the Great Oracle can fight her."

    Xu Yifei gasped softly, "That''s right. Didn''t our Great Oracle say that she can help Master Ji Yuan to avert this number 1 great cmity for him? I''ve almost forgotten about her. Luckily, she is with Ji Yuan¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted them with a wry smile, "Are you whispering your new strategy over there? I am still waiting for your first move."

    Xu Yifei smiled coolly, "Indeed we are. You don''t mind waiting for a minute?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao did not reply her but nor did she make her move yet.

    Xu Yifei said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "Together we have your divine shield to protect us. We should both attack as hard and as quickly as possible. Only then can we have a chance against her."

    The Goddess Ai Tina nodded too, "Indeed with this divine shield, I can do a unreserved attack and do not need to hold back anymore."

    The two of them began to nod quietly as they returned their attention to stared coldly at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao now.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled wryly as she reformed her profound animus again and she had summoned her spirit entity as a white hydra with 9 heads could suddenly be seen.

    At the same time, she had also summoned two giant spirit talismans again; it was still the same 8th immortal profound power spirit talismans but the surge in profound power was obvious.

    A dainty looking fairy with four wings had also been mustered by Xu Yifei''s spirit animus and it seemed perfectly aligned with her; This dainty fairy had the effect of increasing the mobility and even flight speed of Xu Yifei beside lending her an increase in profound power.

    In front of Xu Yifei, she had drawn four spirit talismans and each one talisman was exquisite looking and imbued with the profound power of the wind elements.

    Many of the onlookers were looking with wonder at Xu Yifei''s new spirit talismans because they had never seen such an intricate pattern before.

    Her exquisite wind spirit talisman was actually a new 7th rank spirit talisman that she had recently been inspired to create after her battle with the Golden Horn Wolly Nymph and after studying the two immortal mystic profound circles that the Great Beyond Goddess had taught her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina looked impressed by Xu Yifei''s new wind spirit talismans and even she had not seen anything like this before.

    But she quickly turned her attention to say to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "If I am not wrong, most sword saints can''t use their sword domain more than once. It is because they would have exhausted their sword intentions for the same move."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Most. Because they are throwing everything into the same sword domain and this exceeded their own strength to use."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was quiet all of a sudden; it was because this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was taunting her to try her and that she may be able to repeat her sword domain once again.

    But she quickly said, "We areing then¡­"

    When she had said that, she had suddenly thrown her 2 giant spirit talismans and even her Spirit Hydra was firing with 9 rays of profound energies onto Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    At the same time, Xu Yifei had also loosened her 4 spirit talismans and it had suddenly transformed into 4 spirit fairies that danced with great irregr speed!

    This time round Ding Xiaoxiao did not wait for their profound attacks to happen but instead she had sh forward with her scabbard while firmly dering the name of her sword domain, "Sword Dao of the Small Universe!"

    Indeed, she could repeat the use of this sword domain again!

    A burst of her inertia sword profound power wrapped around her even as the 6 spirit talismans exploded on her and even the 9 profound sts of the Spirit Hydra were upon her.

    To the shock of the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not stopped as she continued to charge forward with her sword domain.<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    This only mean that the profound power that Ding Xiaoxiao had just used exceeded all their profound attacks and she could even use the profound power of her sword domain as an inertia barrier as she charged forward.

    In the next blink of an eye, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was upon them but the white and blue Divine Shield of Ai Tina moved to intercept her even though she had charged at an unlikely angle after changing course.

    There was a thunderous impact and Number 1 had cracked the Divine Shield of Ai Tina before she was knocked back seven steps.

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were naturally shocked because it means that the Sword Dao of the Small Universe by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao still have so much profound power as to dent the Divine Shield Ai Tina even after all their profound attacks.

    They could immediately sense the power disparity between them and this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao!

    But just as they were recovering from their next profound attack, Ding Xiaoxiao had already disyed her Sword Dao of the Small Universe in the next split second and she had shattered the Divine Shield of the Ai Tina.

    At the same time, she had even punched the Goddess Ai Tina by sending her backward ten steps and causing her Spirit Hydra to be destroyed!

    She was simply too fast!

    And her scabbard was upon Xu Yifei who immediately raised her fingers to disy a miniature profound mystic circle of the Traverse Transference Divine Array to absorb the startling impact of the profound attack of the Sword Dao of the Small Universe.

    This had knocked Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao back again.

    An injured Goddess Ai Tina quickly seized the opportunity to attack with 2 of her spirit talismans but these were quickly swept casually aside by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Now they were back at the earlier scene where Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was still beautifully standing in a nonchnt manner while the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were both perspiring heavily.

    The onlookers were all silenced by their exchanges and the number of onlookers had now ballooned to more than 5 thousand.

    No one dare to say a word now.

    But there was bitterness in the eyes of all the spiritas onlookers for they could not believe someone could actually stand up against their highly regarded Goddess Ai Tina.

    It was as though their myth was being ripped apart right before their very eyes.

    Their Goddess Ai Tina was their heroine and she was also their savior against the depraved evil divine lords.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao turned to look at the profound mystic circle that was being used by Xu Yifei and said, "This is your trump card? I didn''t expect that you have something like this that is even stronger than that immortal divine shield. You have caused me to underestimate you and you have extinguished the use of my Sword Dao of the Small Universe too."

    She could not use her Sword Dao of the Small Universe anymore because her sword intentions for this sword domain had beenpletely exhausted by Xu Yifei''s profound mystic circle.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao began to smile wryly. "However, this is of little consequences to me for I am a Sword Deity and I have more than 3 sword domains to use anyway. This is merely my weakest sword domain."

    When she had said that, the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were shocked.

    And even all the onlookers were shocked too!

    This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was just a monster!

    All of a sudden from the sky, an alluring voice had suddenly said. "Do you mind if I join in the fight too?"

    An extremely beautiful maiden had appeared from the heavens above and It was Divine Consort Tang Manni as she quicklynded in front of Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    When the onlookers saw that it was actually Divine Consort Tang Manni, they were all smiling.

    Surely with 1 more divine consort, they could win this fight?

    And surely the other divine consorts from Snowy Pavilion City would also being?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply smiled, "I can''t anyone from courting their own death. I must admit that these defensive talismans and profound arts of your race are too irritating to me and I am thirsty for blood now."

    Divine Consort Tang Manni was undeterred as she smiled alluringly, "Then I shall make you bite more than you can chew!"

    Then she turned to look at Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina who were both trembling nonstop as they tried to muster all their profound strength tobat this new threat.

    Divine Consort Tang Manni said with an awkward and hesitant look, "If we fight together, we can still win. Right? We have the divine shield of Ai Tina to protect us, after all."

    Xu Yifei sighed with a trembling voice as she pointed at the broken divine shield that had flung some distance away, "Sister Manni, the Divine Shield of Ai Tina is now broken and can''t be used for some time. You shouldn''t havee alone. Where is Master Ji Yuan and the Great Oracle?"

    Tang Manni muttered weakly, "Sister, are you saying we are screwed now?"

 Chapter 842 The Trump Card Of The Goddess Ai Tina

    ?

    Divine Consort Tang Manni had lifted two spirit talismans in front of her and an armored helmed guardian was disyed.

    The spirit talismans that she had just disyed was not an offensive one but two defensive talismans.

    "Sister Yifei, Your Goddess. I will be your profound defense against her!"

    There was a strong determination in her alluring beautiful eyes.

    But this was also this strong determination in her alluring beautiful eyes that caused the Goddess Ai Tina to be sorrowful.

    It was because this had reminded her of her mother consort Tang Li that had also disyed this same unyielding determination when she had first ascended to the Greater Spirit Realm before being tortured by the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    And today, her daughter had the same determination to protect a sinful immortal goddess like her?

    The Goddess Ai Tina felt that she could not be able to repay this debt to both mother and daughter¡­

    All of a sudden, she had disyed two talismans at their vulnerable back of Tang Manni and Xu Yifei that exploded thunderously at their back before flooring them to the ground!

    This stunned all the onlookers and even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked a little startled.

    Tang Manni and Xu Yifei were naturally the most startled when the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly attacked them and causing their readied profound attacks to dissipate all of a sudden.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said before they could even ask her for an exnation, "The two of you are wounded. You should back off immediately."

    When she had said that she had used her profound animus to throw them to where Maiden Flower Ju was!

    "No!" Xu Yifei was shocked as she gasped weakly, "You can''t fight her alone!"

    Tang Manni was also looking with great disbelief, "With the 3 of us together, we can win this fight¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao did not say anything but waited; it was because she knows that the Goddess Ai Tina was merely trying to protect the two of them from being killed by her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said quietly to Number 1, "As you can see, I have two weak cultivators in my group. They are more of a hindrance than a good help."

    Xu Yifei, Tang Manni: ¡­

    Then the Goddess Ai Tina turned to smile at them, "Are you worrying for your goddess? I still have a trump card that I didn''t use yet. So, I won''t be defeated by this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao."

    Xu Yifei looked doubtful, "Really?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled as she disyed a glowing blue spirit talisman on her finger tips and immediately Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and all the others were startled that this blue spirit talisman contained an unimaginable soul power.

    Many of the more knowledgeable spirit cultivators were all gasping with shock as they recognized the type of spirit talisman that this blue spirit talisman belonged to.

    "This is a soul talisman, and it is a powerful one¡­"

    "I have never seen anything like this soul talisman before¡­"

    "Our Goddess Ai Tina can win this battle¡­"

    Even Xu Yifei and Tang Manni were startled by this blue glowing spirit talisman that the Goddess Ai Tina had just disyed.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was sighing softly to herself; she had originally nned to use this special soul attack talisman on the True Devil God instead of Ji Yuan.

    But it seemed to her that today it was no longer possible to hide her trump card¡­

    ¡¤?¦Èm This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was too formidable!

    There was a movement in Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s eyes; even though she may not recognize what this spirit talisman was but she could sense an immerse profound power within and her instincts had warned her to be careful.

    This time round, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao broke her silence, "Very well then. We shall see who can survive this fight¡­"

    All of a sudden, several cultivators could be seen in the sky above; they were Ji Yuan, Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and the Goddess Destiny.

    Tang Manni broke into a smile as she looked at her Sister Xu Yifei, "Everyone is here now¡­"

    Ji Yuan was being lifted by Sun Dingjun and Dongfang Xin and as soon as he hadnded with them, he chuckled. "I have heard that someone called Number 1 wants to challenge me to a duel?"

    He was quickly followed behind by Ding Jie''Er and the Goddess Destiny.

    When he finally got a good look at Number 1, he was looking quite astonished because this Number 1 was really peerless in her looks and she looked too elegant to be a challenger. <novelsnext></novelsnext>

    However, when he saw the leftover sword energies that were in the vicinity and the killing intentions that hade from her, he knows that she was a most terrifying challenger.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked a little startled as well as she appraised Ji Yuan; this Ji Yuan was too beautiful looking to be a battle-hardened sword saint but when she saw his immortal scabbard on his back, she knows that he must be Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at the injured Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and the Goddess Ai Tina, "If you are just looking for me, you don''t have to fight the rest. So, leave them alone ande for me instead."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao nodded with a cold smile, "Indeed. Now that you are here, we can finally have our fight."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the Goddess Ai Tina, "This is my fight."

    The Goddess Ai Tina hesitated for a while but when she saw the Goddess Destiny also making a nod in her direction, she answered Ji Yuan. "Alright then."

    Destiny was smiling instead; maybe this time round, a real opponent would be able to ''finish off'' this ''master'' of hers.

    If anyone knows what she was thinking, they would be shocked too.

    Ji Yuan said aloud to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "Before we fight, do you think we ought to have a proper introduction first?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled coldly, "I am Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily. I know who you are. You are Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You may know that I am Ji Yuan but not my celestial title."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "So what is your title?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am known as the Number 2 Sword of the Heavens. The reason why I am known as such is because there is no Number 1 Sword of the Heavens after me."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Many of the onlookers were nowughing; it was because it was obvious that Ji Yuan was pping this Number 1 with his title.

    Even Tang Manni could not suppress a smile while Ding Jie''Er was giggling with Sun Dingjun.

    There was an intense atmosphere earlier but Ji Yuan seemed to lift this intense pressure all of a sudden with his remarks.

    Xiang Li warned Ji Yuan: Big Brother, pridees before a fall. You shouldn''t have taunted her.

    Anyang was also saying: I totally agree with Xiang Li here¡­

    But Ji Yuan did not appear to hear them in his soul sea.

    Instead, he continued with a grin, "I don''t understand it. Why are you looking for me? What the reason?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao disyed a wry smile, "Nothing. I''ve simply heard that you are the number 1 sword cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and that is why I havee here to look for you as well as to pick a fight with all the other renowned sword saints in the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan began to frown, "This is the reason?!"

    He had thought that he may have identally offended this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, somewhere in his cultivation history.

    But Ji Yuan was no stranger to duels and he kinda understand why she was pointing her sword at him.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao raised her scabbard, "So we can fight now?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly raised his three fingers, "Not yet. Wait for 3 incense time first."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    "Why?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Because I am not ready yet."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    All the onlookers: ¡­

 Chapter 843 I Shall Give You 3 Incense Time!

    ?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was frowning coldly at Ji Yuan, "Why do you need 3 incense time? And what do you mean by you''re not ready yet?"

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "That is because I am not interested to fight an opponent that have just been through a fight or even several fights. Therefore, I am giving you 3 incense time to recuperate your strength."

    A minority of the crowd was muttering.

    "Stupid!"

    "You should take advantage of your opponent first¡­"

    "Martial honor is nothing if you are dead¡­"

    "This is a golden opportunity to take advantage of your opponent!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao frowned: What if I say I don''t need a rest and we can continue our duel immediately?"

    Ji Yuan answered coolly, "Then I am afraid that you won''t have a fair duel. Because of this, I can''t do my utmost because of this guilty shadow in my heart that cause me to fight a weakened opponent. Even if you can defeat me, it is not a real victory."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    There were many onlookers including Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er and many others who were looking with great adtion at Ji Yuan.

    He was indeed their Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan and he holds the highest ideals of the Spiritas honor with this selfless act!

    Even Destiny was a little startled that Ji Yuan was such an honorable cultivator that was willing to give his opponent 3 incense time to rest¡­

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly, "Very well then. So shall it be."

    With that she had sat down to meditate while more and more people were trying to crowd the streets.

    The news that an epic fight was forting soon erupted throughout the entire city.

    But if one were to know Ji Yuan''s true reasons for the 3 incense time, they would probably vomit blood.

    Even Xiang Li was saying to Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, this beautiful sister looks really formidable. You shouldn''t have given her an opportunity to regain her profound strength!"

    Anyang was also saying, "This is not the right time to show mercy to a strong opponent. She looks stronger than you. Can''t you see that even the Goddess Ai Tina, Tang Manni and Xu Yifei were all injured as well but there is not even a single scratch on her! She is stronger than even the Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    But Ji Yuan said to them: Before this 3 incense time is up, my senior sister will be here. I am waiting for my senior sister toe.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: Why are we waiting for Maiden Chu Lixue? She can help you?

    Ji Yuan answered them solemnly: This is going to be my epic fight, right? So naturally I have to show off in front of my senior sister. That is why I am waiting for her first.

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang reminded Ji Yuan: My lord. Have you ever considered the possibility that you may lose this duel and even got yourself killed when your opponent could regain her profound strength?

    Ji Yuanughed aloud: Not a chance. I am a super sword cultivator now. No one can beat me. Haha¡­

    Then he reminded them: And don''t worry that we have the Goddess Destiny here with us. She says she is here to help me avert my number 1 great cmity and I believe her.

    Anyang blinked her eyes: And I thought that previously you have said that you don''t believe her and she is merely a chatan?<novelsnext></novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan pointed out to Anyang: Of course, she isn''t a chatan! This strong opponent is called Number1 right? So, she has to be my great cmity for sure. So this Goddess Destiny is right in her divination. I should have believed in her much earlier!

    Anyang weakly said: You sure?

    Ji Yuan frowned: Aren''t you on her side previously? With the Goddess Destiny on our side, we just can''t lose. Don''t forget that I am wearing her skull ring for protection. Haha¡­

    Xiang Li had suddenly giggled: Big Brother, Xiang Li had suddenly thought of something and I should let you know. You would probably need more than 5 incense time instead of 3.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously: Why?

    Xiang Li giggled: Because of traffic jams. I don''t think your senior sister can squeeze into the crowd now.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Crap, I didn''t think of this¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan could hear shouts from among the crowd and he had turned to look at the direction of the shouts in the crowd.

    He was pleasantly surprised to see that it was Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing!

    "Make way for them!" He quickly went over and he was waving in their directions. "They are my friends!"

    Xiang Li was giggling: It is Maiden Yang Mi and Maiden Yu Jingjing! They are also here!

    Anyang sarcastically said: You didn''t see your senior sister but her younger sister will also do.

    Yang Mi was Chu Lixue''s half-step sister.

    As soon as Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had wriggled from the crowd of curious onlookers, they had immediately flown into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    This caused Ji Yuan to look a little awkward because they were a little too scantily dressed¡­

    Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er and Sun Dingjun were looking a little envious at the arrival of these two new maidens that could hug themselves at Ji Yuan.

    In the meantime, Ji Yuanughed as he said to Yang Mi. "Your Sister Chu Lixue is also in this ce with me. Howe you are, erm¡­in this ce? Didn''t you say that you are not taking the trial?"

    Yang Mi shyly said, "We havee to warn you to be beware of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily. Yun Chi has told us to tell you this, don''t ever fight with her. You won''t stand a chance. Quickly use your golden talisman and flee as far as possible from her."

    "That''s right!" Yu Jingjing nodded with anxiously. "Use your golden talisman now!"

    ¡¤?¦Èm Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t worry. I have an immortal goddess to aid me. So, I won''t lose. Moreover, it is pointless for me to use my golden talisman now. She can see it when I am using it and she can use her golden talisman to track me outside."

    "An immortal goddess that can aid you? Who?" Yang Mi began to ask curiously.

    Ji Yuan pointed his finger to where Destiny was and he was smiling, "The Goddess Destiny! She is also the Great Oracle of the Spiritas. With her aid, I just can''t lose."

    Destiny was also looking in the direction of Ji Yuan and she was also smiling: It is just 3 incense time. Very soon, you shall die and I will be freed from my ve cor.

 Chapter 844 Divination With The Spirit Tea

    ?

    A big incense burner had been put in the middle of the street for all to be the witnesses and it would also act as a countdown for the duel between Ji Yuan and Number 1 to be started.

    Ji Yuan asked Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "Do you need more incense time? Like 5 or more?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao replied coldly, "No!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "No harm letting me know if you ever change your mind about this."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was astonished that this Ji Yuan seemed to talk a lot and she had no idea what his ulterior motive was.

    Is he just buying himself time for more reinforcements?

    So that they would all attack her together?

    Or he needed 3 burning incense time to ask about her strengths and weaknesses?

    Her suspicions were confirmed when she saw Ji Yuan walking over to the side of Goddess Ai Tina, Xu Yifei and Tang Manni.

    Following Ji Yuan were Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and Dongfang Xin.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was now warning Ji Yuan, "Be careful! She is an immortal cultivator and she is also a sword deity!"

    Ji Yuan looked truly startled, "What? She is a sword deity?"

    Crap¡­

    Xu Yifei was also warning him, "So far, she has only disyed only one sword domain. The name of her sword domain is the Sword Dao of the Small Universe. And she has damaged my immortal divine shield with it."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled.

    What sort of a profound power could damage even an immortal divine shield?

    He asked weakly, "She is a 9th cultivation realm immortal?"

    Xu Yifei said quietly, "She has only disyed her cultivation realm to the 7th cultivation realm and she can already damage my immortal divine shield with her sword domain."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "This is scary¡­"

    Xu Yifei continued to say, "And she says this is her weakest sword domain."

    Ji Yuan almost fainted on the spot; this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao seems like a most difficult opponent all of a sudden.

    When Xu Yifei had briefed Ji Yuan and the others that hade with Ji Yuan, they were all shocked as well.

    Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin could not believe that such a strong cultivator using only the 7th cultivation realm would actually exist.

    Dongfang Xin muttered, "I don''t believe¡­"

    Xu Yifei said quietly, "The Goddess Ai Tina and I even fight her together but we are still defeated by her and almost got ourselves killed."

    Tang Manni said, "With so many of us now, do we need to fear from a lone cultivator?"

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "This is a duel. My duel."

    If there is something that Ji Yuan is picky about, it is his duel is his duel. No one should interfere in his duel.

    This is his pride as a sword saint. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    That was why he did not run away from his duel with the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce even though he could still evacuate just his love ones. But he could not abandon everyone else in the Five Heavens Peak to their fates.

    Also, Ji Yuan had already been through several life and death duels as a sword saint and he was no stranger to epting a challenge from a superior cultivator.

    Once a challenge has been epted, Ji Yuan has every obligation to fulfill it even though it may look foolish to the others.

    He was no stranger to dueling at World''s End against the Divine Pce Master who turned up to be Xia Jiajia.

    It was because before he had known Jiajia, he had already fought more than 100 times with various cultivators at World End and many other ces as well.

    It was just that he did not feel it was necessary to tell anyone about it especially if it was a secret duel.

    That is the reason why Ji Yuan is a Sword Saint and this martial honor is also part of the sword saint''s cultivation.

    But it is not just martial honor alone.

    It is the guts of being fearless even unto death that is part of the sword saint''s cultivation.

    Ji Yuan doesn''t fear death and often make light of his situations.

    When he had exited his seclusion from his breakthrough to the seventh sacred saint level, he had kicked the rocks blocking his way and almost copsed the cave; the first thing that he had joked was that he was almost killed by the falling rocks even though he would not exactly die since he had already formed his golden body from the fifth cultivation realm onward.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to Ji Yuan, "We should ask the Great Oracle for her opinion first. After all, she already knows about your cmity."

    Ji Yuan had no issue about this since he believes in his own invincibility that he was being protected by the Great Oracle.

    So Ji Yuan and everyone else began to approach the surprised Destiny.

    "Um?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "Great Oracle, we believe that this must be the number 1 great cmity that you are talking about. So, we will like to have more advise from you."

    Destiny looked a little sheepish before she said regally, "Get me some spirit tea first."

    The Goddess Ai Tina and everyone else were suddenly enlightened with great delight for they all know that the Great Oracle may be trying to make a divination with the tea leaves in the spirit tea.

    Xu Yifei immediately said to Maiden Flower Ju, "Get the best spirit tea for our Great Oracle!"

    "Right away!" Maiden Flower Ju had immediately dashed into the tavern with several of the female spiritas followers of Xu Yifei.

    A short whileter, Destiny was sitting down with a table next to her and she was sipping the spirit tea.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously about her divination, "So how is it?"

    Destiny answered enigmatically, "Good tea."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Everyone: ???

 Chapter 845 Number 1 Vs. 2 Great Charlatans.

    ?

    Time quickly passed and the 3 incense time were now almost up and the crowd was easily more than a hundred thousand onlookers now.

    Even the roof-tops were full of the spiritas maidens that were all trying to get a good look.

    This wide street had suddenly looked very small!

    However, there was still no sight of the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue or even Xiao Muhan.

    Ji Yuan pretended to cultivate as he tried to look as cool and awesome as possible in front of so many onlookers.

    But he was also asking nervously to himself: Where is my senior sister? Why isn''t she here yet? My fight is starting soon¡­

    Xiang Li said weakly to him: There are just too many people¡­

    As for the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei, they were cultivating nearby to try to regain as much of their profound strength as possible.

    In the meantime, Destiny like Ji Yuan was also pretending to read the spirit tea while Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Dongfang Xin, Tang Manni, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were nervously looking at every slight movement that she was making.

    Ji Yuan was constantly looking nervously in Destiny''s direction and he seemed to be saying: You are supposed to be protecting me from this number 1 great cmity, am I right to say so?

    Destiny would always notice his subtle look and she would always nod subtly, seemingly sending an assurance nod in his direction.

    And all the others had thought that Ji Yuan would be able to ovee this number 1 great cmity by the reassuring gaze that Destiny had disyed with her subtle nod.

    Actually, Destiny was just nodding to Ji Yuan as she smiled to herself that it was pointless to ask her for any help.

    And she was simply weing the news that Ji Yuan may die today.

    She was absolutely filled with great delight while looking as stately as usual and she had already nned what to say next.

    "I am so sorry that I am unable to help Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to avert his number 1 great cmity. This is his fate and even I can''t change his destiny. This is his bad karma and I can''t do a thing. He should do more good while he was still alive. Unfortunately, this is already toote to do anything now. He is dead now."

    And she had turned to look at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao several times and this was not lost on her.

    Even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was a little rmed by the confidence with which these two ''great chatans'', Ji Yuan and Destiny appeared to exude.

    It was because Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had noticed Destiny for quite some time and she had this presence that was extremely ancient.

    Although she had no idea that her name was Destiny but she had heard the others called her the Great Oracle and even the divine consorts seemed to be holding her in high regards.

    This included the Goddess Ai Tina too.

    If so, then this Great Oracle should even be a high level immortal.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao saw that this Great Oracle looks extremelyposed whenpared to the rest.

    In fact, she looked tooposed and there was not even a slightest expression in her countenance all this while whenparing to the others.

    It was as though this Great Oracle had already known about the result of this duel.

    This started to unnerve Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao a little even though she was still confident that she would not lose.

    She noticed that this Ji Yuan was also appearing overconfident when she turned to look at him, and he had even given her three incense of time to gather some of her profound strength back, in order to make their duel even more level.

    But why is he so self-assured?

    By now, he should know that she is a sword deity now, right?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He should be afraid?

    Unless, he is also a sword deity?

    This is impossible since he is only at the seventh cultivation realm.

    Even though sword domains are not restricted to the immortal cultivators but for a sword saint, having even 1 sword domain is considered to be a lofty achievement and the sword saint would be considered a half-step sword immortal.

    There are only just a handful of sword saints over tens of thousands of years that have mastery of 2 sword domains and they are all considered to be sword immortals.

    And these sword immortals are already considered to be geniuses of all the sword geniuses.

    Talent alone is not enough. They also need to have a several fortuitous encounters and also be in the major celestial sects to be groomed as a possible sword immortal.

    But this Ji Yuan is from a poor cultivation region and this alone should doom his chance to be a sword immortal.

    As far as she knows, there are no sword deities below the 8th immortal cultivation realm ever.

    It is because each time a sword domain is formed, this actually consisted of the life time sword cultivation of a sword saint. And each time another new sword domain is formed, it will take twice and even many times as long.

    And a celestial cultivator like Ji Yuan simply did not have such a long life like an immortal.

    Moreover, she has already learnt that this Ji Yuan is only 500 odd years of age.

    These thoughts had crossed into Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s mind.

    Unless¡­

    Her eyes were suddenly looking at the Goddess Ai Tina; there is a special talisman from her that seemed to be extremely potent and this Goddess Ai Tina may use it while she is dueling with Ji Yuan.

    But would this Ji Yuan allow it?

    Or unless he is nning to change rules of the duel to include the Goddess Ai Tina and even the Great Oracle?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly realized the purpose of the 3 incense time.

    This Ji Yuan was trying to unnerve her by giving her the time to think and this was his psychology warfare.

    In a duel, the duelists mental willpower may also y a huge part especially when the highest level of the sword intentions is the formation of a sword domain.

    And this Ji Yuan has sought to weaken her resolute.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled.

    Good try but this won''t work against her.

    If you want to defeat me then you have to show me what you are capable of.

 Chapter 846 Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan (1)

    ?

    As the 3 incense time was almost up now, it was the time for Ji Yuan to duel with Number 1. But there was still no sight of his senior sister. Or even Xiao Muhan.

    So Ji Yuan got up from his fake cultivation, the tens of thousands of onlookers began to scream or pped that their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan was now standing up.

    Ji Yuan saw that more than 99% of the onlookers were actually maidens. Men are fewer than few.

    At the start, 10% of the onlookers were men but men are forbidden to touch the maidens here or they would be fined. So, they got squeezed out by the maidens who were all crowding and pushing one another to get a better view while Xu Yifei''s female followers had formed a big circle around Ji Yuan and Number 1 to prevent anyone from approaching too near to them when the fight starts.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had also got up from her meditation and she was looking at Ji Yuan with a mocking look.

    Ji Yuan was really disappointed that his senior sister was not here to see his duel.

    He did not know that Chu Lixue was actually in the crowd but she could not even get Ji Yuan or the attention from any of the divine consorts because the onlookers were too numerous plus they were all talking nonstop and drowning her shouts.

    In the end, she had to watch the fight between Number 1 and Ji Yuan from afar.

    As for Xiao Muhan, he could not even get into the perimeter of the onlookers and he could not even see Ji Yuan or Number 1 as the numerous maidens warned him not to touch them or get too close to them.

    Xiao Muhan could only sigh with great resignation as he watched more and more maidens squeezing with one another into the street where the fight would take ce but as a man, he could only stand with the other men at the other side of the street where he could not even see a thing.

    Back to where Ji Yuan and Number 1 were now as they had both stood up to face each other.

    The Goddess Ai Tina, the 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all nervously looking at Ji Yuan now and they all hope that he could be able to stand a chance.

    Only Destiny remained unconcerned and she was still casually drinking her spirit tea.

    JI Yuan asked Number 1, "You have rest enough?"

    He did not see her taking any profound pills at all. Usually when a cultivator consumed a profound pill, they had to cultivate to gain the best efficiency for it or most of the profound properties of the profound pill will be wasted.

    Just cultivating for a short 3 incense time was not going to help his opponent to regain much of her profound strength.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely said nonchntly, "I have rested. We can start our duel now."

    Ji Yuan had disyed his immortal scabbard on his back and this startled Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao a little.

    She was thinking: He has an immortal scabbard?

    Ji Yuan had also shed his 9 divine swords on the ground and this also startled Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    "I just wonder something before we actually fight," Ji Yuan frowned. "Do we have a feud or what?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I am from the Evil Cultivation Pce and I serve the Great Demon God. Is this a good enough reason for us to fight?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "It is a good enough reason for us to duel¡­"

    And he had taken out Xiang Li from his immortal scabbard, revealing his divine sword to be an emperor-step divine sword.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was startled but she was now smiling now; it was because she seemed to have found a worthy sword cultivator to fight against now.

    "Where is your sword?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply raised her scabbard in front of her, "This scabbard is my sword."

    Ji Yuan stared nkly at the scabbard that looked ordinarypared to his immortal scabbard, "Careful. It may break under my profound sword attack."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "Don''t worry. It won''t."

    Ji Yuan had also disyed his sword spirit on his hand as he raised Xiang Li up, "This is my sword spirit."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had also shed her sword spirit in the form of a brilliant white lily began to form on her forehead, "You can move your sword spirit to your hand? This will leave you quite defenseless or you are merely using your profound strength to lift your powerful divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan did not answer her and he was suddenly solemn now.

    The minute he saw her sword spirit, he was rmed for the profound power of her sword spirit way stronger than his very own and he had immediately recognized her sword spirit as an ultra sword spirit. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He had suddenly decided to switch his strategy now by disying another sword spirit on his left hand.

    "Another sword spirit?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan''s two sword spirits disappeared from his hands and re-appeared on his forehead again as a new sword spirit.

    The eyes of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao were wild with ecstasy now as she gasped, "You have an ultra sword spirit too¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina was also looking startled; it was because Ji Yuan did not show hint that he had such a formidable sword spirit while they were inside the legendary Secret Oracle Gate.

    Even Destiny was blinking her eyes as she recognized the profound power of Ji Yuan''s sword spirit: Ultra sword spirit?

    Unlike a normal sword spirit that can enhance a sword cultivation attacking profound power by 10-20% and increased profound strength by 10-20% at the same time, the ultra sword spirit can increase a sword cultivator''s profound strength and power by 40-60%!

    Ji Yuan had also taken out Anyang as his second emperor-step divine sword now.

    He did not want to take out all his trump cards at the very first without clearly evaluating his opponent first but his guts feeling told him that this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not an opponent that he could underestimate at the very beginning of his fight.

    "Another emperor-step divine sword!" Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was truly astonished.

    All her previous analysis of this Ji Yuan was all wrong and it was no wonder why they had called him the number 1 sword cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Now that you seen my divine swords, you still won''t unsheathe your divine sword? Don''t tell me that you practice a type of quick draw sword technique?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled, "Against you, it is still unnecessary for me to use my divine sword yet. Because the instant that I unsheathe my divine sword, you will surely die."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is she insulting me?

    Ji Yuan grinned back, "Even if I were to die from your divine sword, I will make sure that you lose all your clothes in this flimsy outfit of yours."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Xiang Li face-palmed herself: Big Brother, do you have to say so in public?

    Anyang muttered weakly: That''s our lord alright. He answered insult with an insult.

    Almost all the maidens that could hear Ji Yuan had a flustered look as this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was really a peerless maiden of great beauty.

    Even Destiny had looked up from sipping her spirit tea as she could not believe what she was hearing from this ''Great Spiritas Hero'' Ji Yuan.

    The Goddess Ai Tina, the 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all looking at Ji Yuan as though they were questioning their hearings.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao quicklyposed herself to say coldly to Ji Yuan, "Since I am the challenger, I shall allow you to make your first move. But beware of this. My counter attack will be swift and merciless. So be careful of losing your head."

    JI Yuanughed as he positioned his two divine swords into an attack position, "Funny. I am also known as Headcutter Ji Yuan and it will such a pity to behead a beautiful maiden like yourself."

    He was only teasing her for he preferred to leave his opponents aplete corpse. Moreover, beheading an opponent in actualbat was simply too difficult as the head position was also the most guarded position especially with an indestructible divine sword in front of the body.

    He simply could not believe that this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would be able to behead him without unsheathing her sword.

    And he had shed forward with a tremendous speed and with his 2 divine swords in a grand cross attack position.

    "Today, you will regret challenging this Number 2 Sword Under the Heavens, where I am the number 2 sword and there is no number 1 sword above me!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked amused as she calmly braced herself for the forting attack and she found herself saying. "Heehee, today you have finally met your number 1 sword."

 Chapter 847 Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan had shed forward to make his attack with his right hand and the first profound attack that he was going to make was his Grand Cross, a powerful sword art that used his life force energies but one that could blow most of his opponents away.

    But even before he could he could cross his two divine swords together, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had already made a move by raising her scabbard in the middle of his two divine swords.

    This startled Ji Yuan; this was also his strongest focus point of his life force energies as well as his weakest.

    But Ji Yuan was soon grinning because Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not going to stop him as he unleashed a huge burst of lethal life force energies that exploded over her!

    "He is not a right hander? His left hand is the one that contained all his profound strength¡­"

    Ji Yuan was indeed never a right hander and he had purposely slow down his left hand as to deceive his opponents. So when Ding Xiaoxiao had focused her profound power on his right hand to disrupt his profound attack, Ji Yuan''s left sword was lending support behind his right sword.

    And moreover, Anyang was even more useful with her five elements empowerment than his useless Xiang Li.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was rmed as she immediately disyed an additional burst of explosive profound power, "Sword Dao of the Medium Universe!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked that there seemed to be a single burst of profound force that seemed familiarly to his lethal life force energies that had suddenly burst out from a singr point from the tip of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s scabbard as it exploded into a huge ball of profound energies that was even greater than his grand cross.

    This profound attack from her immediately not only neutralize Ji Yuan''s grand cross profound attack but it had also flung him back violently to the other side of the street as he hit a house with a tremendous crash!

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were both stunned that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had just disyed a sword domain that was 3 times more powerful than the Sword Dao of the Small Universe that they had just experienced.

    Even Destiny had raised her head to look at the fight as she thought: This fight is over so soon? She has only used the seventh cultivation realm and yet the profound power of this sword domain exceeds what most 9th immortals are able to take. How terrifying this sword domain will be if she has increased her cultivation realm to the 8th and even 9th cultivation realm¡­"

    The condensed profound power between each cultivation realm was more than twice as powerful for each tier disparity.

    At this moment, the divine senses of all the cultivators had been seized by the profound power that was disyed by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly emerged from the debris of the house that he had copsed into and there was a lethal white sword energies aura around him.

    He was shaking his head and even his hands were trembling; he had never thought that he could be thrash up by a mere sword domain.

    It was luckily that he was being protected by his newly acquired sword aura.

    Now a sword aura was different from a normal profound aura that offers just profound defense. A sword aura is also able to reduce the offensive strength of a profound attack as well as offering profound defense.

    When Ji Yuan was overwhelmed by the huge profound attack of the Sword Dao of the Medium Universe, his sword aura was triggered automatically, hence saving him from the blunt of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s profound sword domain.

    "Sword Aura?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was truly surprised; there is actually a cultivator that can master sword aura below the 8th cultivation realm?

    And also, because there was an opponent of the seventh cultivation realm that had actually survived her Sword Dao of the Medium Universe.

    Ji Yuan shouted with his profound strength, "Flying Sword Domain¡­"

    All of a sudden, the 9 divine swords that Ji Yuan hadid on the ground earlier began to lift up and were all flying to attack Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply swung her scabbard with such terrifying speed and power that she had sent all the 9 flying swords to fly far away from her, "This sword domain is too weak. It doesn''t have your added profound strength¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was upon her again.

    His flying swords were merely a distraction while he readied his next attack.

    And this time had had readied his Grand Cross again but with his life and death domain. Also, this time round, his sword aura was also able to lend him more profound power at the same time.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    This was his Ultimate Grand Cross, and he could only use it only once.

    The profound power of this life and death grand cross was 5 times more powerful than his standard one.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had once again disyed her Sword Dao of the Medium Universe against it.

    This startled Ji Yuan.

    She can use her sword domains repeatedly?! What the heck?!

    There was a brilliant explosion on the ground where Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was standing before the entire ground had exploded with Ji Yuan''s profound power.

    Even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was forced to kneel with one leg under the weighed attack of Ji Yuan''s Ultimate Grand Cross.

    All of a sudden, a simr sword aura had burst forth from Ding Xiaoxiao and she had suddenly flung Ji Yuan away from her, but instead of white aura, her sword aura was red.

    She was also forced to disy her sword aura too as Ji Yuan''s Ultimate Grand Cross was too powerful for her to handle.

    This time, everyone could see that the eyes of this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was crimson instead of golden.

    Destiny was gasping to herself when she saw her crimson eyes: Demonic race. She is a demonic race. What is she doing in the Spirit Divine Realm? This realm isn''t for the likes of her demonic race to disy their full profound strength and yet she can still fight like this. She must be a lofty immortal in the Demonic Deste Realm¡­

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was inhaling softly while Ji Yuan was inhaling heavily; the two of them had used plenty of their profound strength in the earlier exchange.

    However, their fight was not over yet.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said as she raised her scabbard, "Not bad. You have broken my Sword Dao of the Medium Universe. But can you take a hit from my Sword Dao of the Large Universe? Or is this already your most powerful profound sword attack?"

    Ji Yuan put on a straight face as heughed, "Naturally I still have a strongest sword domain attack yet to be used."

    And to prove it, he had used all his profound strength to disy hundreds of profound swords around him.

    "The name of this sword domain of mine is the Million Swords Field!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled and all of sudden she was being surrounded by a circr ck halo, "My Sword Dao of the Large Universe is on apletely league than my 2 previous sword domains. Unless your profound attack is strong enough, I am afraid that no profound forces can even prate through it and when I explode it, this whole street will also be pulverized by me."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You want to kill everyone else in here?!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "They shouldn''t be here in the first ce. They can choose to flee as far as possible while there is still time before I do my worst."

    Ji Yuan gritted his jaws tightly, "Then I am afraid that I have to kill you before you unleased the worst of your Sword Dao of the Large Universe!"

    He knows that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not making an empty threat and he could sense unimaginable terrifying power in the ck halo around her.

    Destiny had stood up now as she could not resist saying to the Goddess Ai Tina and to the other 5 divine consorts, "You have all better readied your defensive spirit talismans and expand the circle around them by twice as big."

    She was actually quite startled by the ck halo around Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao that was like a ck hole that could suck the surrounding profound forces; even if her cultivation realm was at the 7th level, this was still too terrifying.

 Chapter 848 Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan (3)

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina had immediately ordered for the circle around Ji Yuan and the Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to be doubled in size and radius.

    This act alone created a lot of panic and more squeezing as all the onlookers were forced to step even further back.

    But this was a divine decree from the Goddess Ai Tina and their five divine consorts so all the onlookers had no choice but to obey it.

    When Ji Yuan saw what was being done by the Goddess Ai Tina, he nodded his approval at the Goddess Ai Tina and Destiny.

    He was most anxious for Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing so he did not want them toe into any harm.

    Destiny said silently: Who wants your gratitude? I don''t want anyone else to be hurted. I just want my ve cor to be removed and so you have to die¡­

    She may have said that but she found herself rooting for Ji Yuan to survive this battle; it was because she did not want a demonic race like this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to win either.

    This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao has to be a lofty superior immortal in the Demonic Deste Realm. It is because the cultivation power that she has just disyed is good enough to in any normal 9th cultivation immortals and sword deities are almost at the top of the food chain in the immortal realms.

    And this Ding Xiaoxiao has to be the most powerful sword deity that she has ever seen since the True Devil God had passed away.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was also looking confused and she wondered if she should use her trump card and that was the special soul attack talisman that was given to her by her six ''masters''.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed his deste cherubim spirit animus all of a sudden and his cultivation realm had suddenly increased to the upper 8th cultivation strength.

    When he had summoned his spirit animus, many of the spiritas were startled for this was a most powerful spirit animus.

    Even the Goddess Ai Tina and Destiny were startled that Ji Yuan was such a strong ''spirit cultivator'' that could capture the artefact core of a ninth rank deste monster.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked startled too, "8th cultivation realm? 9th rank deste spirit animus? This turns out to be such an interesting fight after all."

    She closed her eyes for a blink of an eye and clenched her left hand into a fist before opening her crimson eyes once more; her cultivation realm had suddenly increased to the 8th cultivation realm and the ck halo around her had suddenly doubled in size and profound power!

    Ji Yuan was speechless.

    What the heck?! She can just increase her cultivation realm just like this?!

    The onlookers were all speechless as well¡­

    The Goddess Ai Tina ordered loudly again, "Double again the size of the circle around them now. Quickly!"

    Immediately the female followers of the 5 divine consorts once again began to push all the onlookers even further away.

    Ji Yuan was now mustering all his hundred of profound swords into a straight line into the Harker of the Million Swords against Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao who had simply raised her scabbard in front of her as she walked slowly toward Ji Yuan, slowed down by the hundreds of profound swords that dissipated as soon it touched her ck halo.

    What the heck?!

    She can resist my profound attacks just like this with her Sword Dao of the Large Universe?!

    Xiang Li! I need more power from you!

    The profound power of the deste cherubim around Ji Yuan increased to the peaked 8th cultivation realm and Ji Yuan was able to muster several hundreds more profound sword energies once again.

    By now, Number 1 had already walked halfway to him as the hundreds of profound swords continued to dissipate each time, they had hit her but she was otherwise still unharmed.

    Ji Yuan had never fought a monster cultivator like this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao before and this was also the first time that he had fought against a lofty Immortal Sword Deity and he had suddenly felt the difference in disparity between them.

    He had timed his trump card to be used now.

    "Life and Death Domain!"

    All of a sudden, he had used his most powerful sword domain and also his 5th sword domain that he had used against the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha.

    He had just converted the Harker of the Million Swords with his life force energies. Together with his ultra sword spirit, sword aura and his deste cherubim spirit animus, this was already his most powerful profound sword attack and he had thrown all his trump cards into this move.

    So, she had better die or else he would surely be killed by her!

    It was because he had no more trump cards to be used after this.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was awed by Ji Yuan''s disy and she had suddenly realized why even the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong could be killed by him and why her six masters had given her the special soul attack talisman.

    It was because she was naturally unable to kill this Ji Yuan with her own power.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao blinked her crimson eyes with a startled look when Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed his 5th sword domain.

    He still has a hidden trump card like this?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    All of a sudden, she was sliding backward and she had in fact, taken 7 steps backward as the numerous life force sword energies exploded through her ck halo.

    In fact, the number of sword profound energies that had exploded through her ck halo easily exceeded a thousand in just 3 blinks of an eye.

    This caused the ck halo around Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to be distorted and it was suddenly expanding rapidly.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not panicky and instead she appeared to be muttering with great delight, "Even I cannot contain the profound power of my Sword Dao of the Large Universe anymore¡­"

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was shocked.

    What the heck?

    Instead of dissipating her ck halo, this ck halo is in fact expanding?!

    Xiang Li was now saying weakly to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I think we need to write a will now. We are at our limits now.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said: We are at our limits now but she should be at her limits as well¡­

    Anyang muttered feebly: I am not betting on that¡­

    All of a sudden, the ck halo around Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly exploded furiously in a bright ck light that seemed to swallow all the profound energies in the vicinity.

    The Goddess Ai Tina and the 5 divine consorts had all raised their defensive talismans up and they had also protected Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing as well.

    As for Destiny, she simply turned around with her back facing the thunderous ck profound explosions to protect the spirit tea that she was sipping.

    As for the numerous female followers of the 5 divine consorts, they were all flung down and many of the onlookers were also floored down even though they were all quite far away.

    The nearby houses in the broad street were all pulverized by the resulting dark profound explosions, exactly as Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had said.

    It took everyone quite a while to stand up again and to see what was going on in the fight between Number 1 and Ji Yuan.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was still standing unscathed by her own explosion of the Sword Dao of the Large Universe as this sword domain had expanded outward in a burst of strong profound energies.

    Therefore, she was not harmed at all.

    As for Ji Yuan, he had stabbed his two divine swords on the ground and he was being dragged twenty steps away from where he wasst standing.

    Not only had his deste cherubim vanished but Ji Yuan was covered with his golden blood, from top to bottom.

    Even his sword aura had alsopletely faded away.

    The result of the duel between Number 1 and Ji Yuan was very clear now.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling as she raised her scabbard to point at Ji Yuan, "Not bad at all. I didn''t expect for you to survive my Sword Dao of Large Universe. Really, I didn''t expect for you to exhaust even my Sword Dao of the Large Universe with your profound attack. This is so unexpected. Do you have any more trump cards now?"

    Ji Yuan was trembling all over as he had almost exhausted all his profound strength and even his life force sword energies; he really did not expect this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would be this strong. She is so strong that he cannot even injured her.

    But he raised his head to say bravely, "Heehee! Is this the best that you can do? Sword Deity Ding Xiaoxiao, I bet that you havepletely exhausted all your sword domains by now, right? I don''t believe that you have so much profound strength!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled, "Good! You can still fight¡­"

    She had suddenly raised her scabbard and the surrounding was suddenly vibrating loudly with her profound strength.

    Her sword intentions seemed to be everywhere yet seemed to be nowhere.

    This startled everyone.

    She had another sword domain?!!

    "This is my most powerful sword domain, the Sword Dao of the Universe Border."

    Ji Yuan and all the others were all stunned; this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is truly a monster!

 Chapter 849 Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan (4)

    ?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had dered, "This is my most powerful sword domain, the Sword Dao of the Universe Border."

    The surrounding vicinity was now rumbling with the echoing all of her sword intentions from everywhere yet nowhere to be seen.

    From where she was standing, she looked serene and even holistic.

    Ji Yuan was shocked by this Sword Dao of the Universe Border. In fact, he was more shocked by the divine state of this Sword Dao of the Universe Border where he had no idea where he would be attacked. It could be from above him, behind him or even below him.

    While she may look extremely vulnerablepared to the Sword Dao of the Large Universe where there was a ck halo to protect her but he knows that this was just a false sense of vulberability.

    In this space of her sword domain, she could freely move everywhere and he was like an ant under her sword gazes.

    Only Yun Chi may be able to break this.

    And he now knows why even Yun Chi had told him not to fight with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but flee as fast as he could; her state of divinity with the sword was truly number 1 and he had realized that she had not even unsheathed her divine sword yet to give her an added profound power to her earlier sword domains.

    If she did, then he may not even break her earlier sword domains for he had two emperor-step divine swords to aid him with the added profound power.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was now smiling to Ji Yuan, "So what are your most powerful trump cards? I have to warn you first. You have an extremely low possibility of even surviving against my most powerful profound sword domain the Sword Dao of the Universe Border."

    Ji Yuan said with a straight face as he disyed a grin, "Don''t bet on it too fast. I do have a trump card left."

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I know all of your trump cards. We have no more trump cards anymore! What trump card are you talking about? Is it the golden talisman?

    Anyang said: It is not shameful to use the golden talisman to escape from a superior opponent. We can live to fight another day.

    In the meantime, the Goddess Ai Tina had readied her special soul attack talisman to be used on Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and she was thinking: If she lives then we are all going to be dead next. So, I have to use this special trump card on her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly made his next move as he shed to attack Ding Xiaoxiao.

    All of a sudden, there were shes of sword curtains from all around Ji Yuan as he expertly dodged all of it away.

    Ji Yuan had raised Xiang Li and he was shouting, "Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    A burst of white streak of coiling light simr to a dragon had suddenly descended upon Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but she did not even need to move for a wall of sword curtains had immediately formed in front of her and had blocked the sword energies attack.

    At the same time, she was directing hundreds of piercing sword energies to fly at Ji Yuan and she looked astonished that this Ji Yuan was able to evade all her profound attacks despite his injuries.

    One must know even if a cultivator could block one of her piercing sword energies, the profound power that was disyed when the exploding sword energies was equivalent to her Sword Dao of the Small Universe.

    In short, few cultivators could even survive a hit from her piercing sword energies that were generating by the hundreds from seeming nowhere.

    And this Ji Yuan seemingly could sense the lethal sword energies from her Sword Dao of the Universe Border.

    She did not know that Ji Yuan''s evasions were greatly enhanced by his Natural Instinct that was being empowered by the Profound Energies Attunement and Divine Sense Revtions of his Divine Heart Recite.

    "Flying Sword Domain!"

    Ji Yuan had once again mustered his sword intentions to summon back all 9 of his divine swords again.

    "Thousand Sacred Swords!"

    Hundreds of profound swords had suddenly shed all around Ji Yuan to block the hundreds of piercing sword energies from Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But weirdly Ji Yuan''s weak profound swords would always reform after being dissipated.

    It was because Ji Yuan was now using his 4th sword domain and he was now shouting this new name of this 4th sword domain which was abination of his Flying Sword Domain and Million Swords Field, "The Thousands Flying Swords!"

    And it was also this sword domain that had killed the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong the other day.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled as she destroyed several of the attacking profound swords with a swung of her scabbard, "To be honest, this sword domain of yours is too weak to hurt me."

    And she had charged forward against Ji Yuan with 24 of her piercing profound swords around her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly raised both of his divine swords into two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon, forming them into the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as a burst of bright profound energies washed over to the charging Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    This Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon requires Ji Yuan to use Xiang Li and Anyang together and it was even more powerful than thest time that Ji Yuan had used it since they are an emperor-step divine sword now.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan had merely used the sword domain of the Thousands Flying Swords to block or to neutralize the piercing sword energies that were everywhere and giving him the chance to make his counter attack.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was startled that Ji Yuan would be capable of using such a powerful sword energies profound attack even without any sword domains to aid him.

    As she raised her scabbard to protect herself, her 24 piercing profound swords were also destroyed as she hastily took a couple of steps backward.

    But Ji Yuan saw that her sword aura was still intact and even his most powerful remaining sword energies attack was useless to actually weaken her.

    And when he saw that his Thousands Flying Swords could still hold on for a little while, he decided to seize the precious frame of window to make another attack opportunity by disying the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon again but this time, he had gambled on hisst remaining profound strength and life force energies to turn it into a life destructive profound sword art simr to his life destructive energies of his grand cross.

    A brilliant profound light that was 5 times brighter than the original Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon shed from Ji Yuan as it exploded thunderously upon Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ji Yuan could feel that the piercing profound swords that were besieging him were suddenly contracting and they were all flying to form a sword curtain around Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    This brought a little relief to him because at this time his 4th sword domain the Thousand Flying Swords had suddenly ended and Ji Yuan was stumbling weakly to the ground, having exhausted all his profound strength.

    But to Ji Yuan''s great horror, he saw that his Life Destructive Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon had not only failed to kill off Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but she had emerged from his attack unscathed.

    Worse, even her Sword Dao of the Universe Border was still presented and hundreds of profound swords were now surrounding Ji Yuan on all sides, waiting for the intention of her will to make the final attack.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was frowning, "Is this your limit already? This trump card of yours look a little weakpared to earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He bitterly said, "You won''t say that again if I still have my sword aura and my deste cherubim spirit animus. Fancy a 8th cultivation realm cultivator bullying a 7th cultivation realm cultivator like me. Can you still be considered a sword deity?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was suddenly startled; it was because Ji Yuan''s words had suddenly hit her like an arrow to her heart. She had forgotten to lower her cultivation realm to the 7th cultivation realm after she had vanished Ji Yuan''s deste cherubim spirit animus and moreover, she was also protected by her formidable sword aura against Ji Yuan who had lost his.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly withdrawn her Sword Dao of the Universe Border as she quietly said, "You are right. This is most unfair to you¡­"

    She had originally thought to challenge this Ji Yuan with only her seventh cultivation realm and she sought to have a fun and fair duel, and not because she pursues the pleasure of victory.

    At this moment the Goddess Ai Tina had also taken the opportunity to send the special soul attack talisman against Number 1.

    It was because having witnessed the fierce cultivation of this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily and moreover she was also a demonic race of the Demonic Deste Realm, the Goddess Ai Tina knows this was a threat that could not be waited to be dispatched of as soon as possible.

    It was almost impossible to dodge a special soul attack talisman and moreover Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was in the midst of withdrawing her sword intentions now.

    But Ji Yuan saw it and he moved in front of her to tank the special soul attack talisman¡­

    Ji Yuan was not an ordinary cultivator; his agility was simply insane with his Natural Instinct.

    This shocked the Goddess Ai Tina, the 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and even Number 1 Xiaoxiao.

    It was because once this special soul attack talisman was being unleashed, everyone could feel the profound power that was within it and the powerful soul manifestation of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were startling.

    This was a profound attack that could even injured Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and it could even instantly kill anyone that was below the 8th cultivation realm!

    And this included Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly fallen onto the ground with a seizure of shock in his soul cultivation.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao gasped with shock, "You block this attack from me, why do you want to do this for an enemy?"

    Before Ji Yuan closed his eyes, he muttered weakly. "You¡­ are¡­ an honorable sword deity¡­ so you don''t deserve¡­ this fate¡­"

    2. I think there is no doubt that Number 2 Murong Yue and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao have a big disparity between them.

 Chapter 850 Is Ji Yuan Dead?

    ?

    Ji Yuan was actually prepared to suck his thumb to burn his golden talisman and to say good bye to all his Trust Points with the divine consorts when he could not defeat Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    He may not be able to defeat her now but it did not mean in the future, he would not be able to defeat her.

    It was exactly as Xiang Li and Anyang had suggested, a hero can live to fight another day.

    When the Goddess Ai Tina had made a sudden attack upon Number 1 Xiaoxiao, he was startled and he had stepped in to block the special soul attack talisman for her.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had blocked the special soul attack talisman from Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was not because he was kind or because he was attracted by her peerless beauty but because they were still having their duel and this sudden attack had crossed his bottom line with his martial honor.

    And also, because he did not see Ding Xiaoxiao killing wantonly and she had in fact, given ample warnings to everyone about how deadly her sword arts were.

    In fact, he would see that her sword energies were restricted to only fighting him and there was a deliberate effort for a proper duel even though they had traded insults with each other.

    So, when the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly made her sneak attack while Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was withdrawing her Sword Dao of the Universe Border, he was rmed and displeased at the same time.

    Even if Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was an enemy, he could not stand for anyone that had tried to make such a conceal move like this.

    And so, he had blocked the lightning quick special soul attack talisman that was meant to attack her.

    Before Ji Yuan closed his eyes, he muttered weakly. "You¡­ are¡­ an honorable sword deity¡­ so you don''t deserve¡­ this fate¡­"

    "And¡­ don''t me¡­ the Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was startled as she quickly inspected Ji Yuan but it was already toote; there was no breathing on him anymore as though his life had been stuffed out.

    Except for the Goddess Ai Tina who was still shocked that the impossible to miss special soul attack talisman would actually miss its target, all 5 divine consorts, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all tearfully surrounding the fallen Ji Yuan and trying to revive him to no avails.

    The Goddess Ai Tina muttered to herself, "I didn''t do this on purpose. I just want to kill Number 1¡­"

    They did not even care if Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was their enemy and they were weeping aloud as they tried to revive the dead Ji Yuan.

    There was no totally no response from Ji Yuan because this was a most powerful soul attack that could void a cultivator''s soul core.

    Ding Jie''Er, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Tang Manni were weeping the most aloud and it was heartbreaking to watch them wept so bitterly.

    "Ji Yuan... wake up..."

    "Yuan Beluga, you are not supposed to die... please wake up..."

    "This is not supposed to be happening..."

    Far away, in the crowd, Chu Lixue had watched the duel between Ji Yuan and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    When Ji Yuan had fallen onto the ground, she had burst into tears because at this instant, she had suddenly be a widow¡­

    Her tears were not noticeable because there were many other maidens that were also weeping as well even though they were just onlookers.

    Destiny had also slowlye to inspect Ji Yuan but it was for another reason; her ve cor was still intact and she was in disbelief.

    If Ji Yuan had died then she would be freed from this ve cor, right?

    So, she bended down to inspect Ji Yuan as well and she was instantly rmed by a familiar feeling.

    Why is this physique so familiar?

    It was as though she was touching the physique of the True Devil God himself.

    It was because she had once dressed the wounds of the True Devil God and she knows his physique very well.

    Now this physique referred to not just the physical form and also the bone structure within the body.

    With a touch, a high-level immortal like Destiny would be able to gauge the density of the bone structure within a body and the True Devil God has an almost indestructible bone structure that is unique to himself.

    Destiny was looking confused now; he is the True Devil God?!

    Then she slowly turned to look at the weeping Xu Yifei and remembered that she had once told the Goddess Ai Tina that she knows who the True Devil God was and had asked her to spare Ji Yuan. And she will only tell the Goddess Ai Tina when the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower starts.

    Isn''t this obvious?

    Because this Ji Yuan is the True Devil God himself and that is the secret that Xu Yifei is hiding from everyone.

    And this Ji Yuan is also the one that the Great Beyond Goddess is looking to kill again after so many years.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But he is dead again now and he is in aatose state.

    Destiny was also bleary eyes now because unlike the Great Beyond Goddess, she did not want the True Devil God to be dead. And he had spared her on many ounts as she had once nursed him back to health while he was in the Dark Entropy Realm.

    The True Devil God had once told her, "In this life, it is not possible for us to be together. Maybe in the next life, I may return your affections but not this life."

    A soul attack was an invisible death and no wounds could be left behind as evidence.

    Not even a high level spirit cultivator would be able to know from reading the cultivation core of the cultivator; It is as though the soul of that cultivator has suddenly disappeared.

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly coughed out golden blood as she copsed on the spot!

    This shocked the rest too.

    What was going on?

    Xu Yifei was so startled by it that she quickly flew to the side of the Goddess Ai Tina and to inspect her¡­

    And there were suddenly many eyes that were upon Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly in response to their stares, "Don''t look at me like this. I didn''t do a single thing to her."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly awakened and he had straightened himself all of a sudden as he banged his head against Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, Destiny, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er who were all crowding around him.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes to say to all the stunned maidens, "What are you all doing around me?"

    Sun Dingjun stammered, "You¡­ are not dead yet, Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan?"

    "Yuan Beluga, are you really alright?" Ding Jie''Er was also gasping with shock and her tears had not yet dried.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao began to wonder, "Maybe it is the Goddess'' Tear that has saved him?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was shocked to see that the peerless face of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was next to him.

    He panicky shouted in his soul sea: Xiang Li, you are there? Xiang Li!!!! Xiang Li!!!!!

    He did not want anything to happen to Xiang Li at all...

    Xiang Li giggled: Of course, I am here. Big Brother, you are finally awakened. We didn''t die. Hehe¡­

    Ji Yuan was suddenly relieved; he did not want Xiang Li to sacrifice for him, not for any reasons.

    Anyang said weakly: But not for long. Don''t forget that Number 1 is now next to you, my lord.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that Anyang was right so he quickly pretended to faint again.

    "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    "He is dead again¡­"

    But Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "He is only pretending to be dead. You can wake up now. Our duel is over now. In fact, I have to thank you."

    Ji Yuan opened his eyes and grinned weakly, "You don''t have to thank me for helping you. This seems to be a weak soul attack talisman. Haha¡­"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled at him, "Not that. But just now during ourst fight, I seem to have ovee my years of blocker and have finallyprehended my Sword Dao of the Borderless Universe. So, when are you well enough for our next duel to test my new sword domain? Didn''t you say that you are the Number 2 Sword Under the Heavens and there is no Number 1 Sword Above the Heavens?"

    Ji Yuan felt like he just got a big p on his face.

    This time round, he had fainted for real; he had already beenpletely exhausted by his fight and only by his sheer willpower was he able to stay awake. But when he had heard that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had actuallyprehended a new sword domain and she wants to have another duel with him, he simply could not take the shock anymore and had fainted immediately.

    In the meantime, Destiny was greatly perplexed; it was because she had sensed a great profound power in the special attack soul talisman and yet Ji Yuan was alright.

    Then she took a subtle look where the unconsciousness Goddess Ai Tina was and she suddenly had an idea: Is it because¡­

 Chapter 851 The 6 Supreme Divine Gods

    ?

    The Greater Spirit Realm.

    The 6 Supreme Divine Gods of the Great Spiritas Race as well as the supreme rulers of the Greater Spirit Realm were sitting in their throne seats in a semicircr great hall.

    Next to them were 18 nude great beauties that were handpicked by them to serve their sexual needs and they were all ''servicing'' their six masters now.

    These 18 nude great beauties were all once divine consorts in the lower Spirit Divine Realm but in the Great Spirit Realm, they were now the harlots of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods, simply known to them as the 6 masters.

    These 18 great beauties were not allowed to stand and they could only crawl between the legs of these 6 masters as their docile harlots and at least one of them was constant blowing flute for their masters.

    Today the 6 Supreme Divine Gods had a surprised guest and he was the Legendary Spiritas Hero Achilles and he led the 300 Spiritas Heroes.

    As Achilles stepped through into this great hall, he could still hear the great shouts of the immortal divine lords outside, "All hail the True Devil God. All hail the Supreme Divine Gods!"

    The 1st Supreme Divine God frowned, "Achilles, why are you here? Aren''t you in the Dark Mist Great Continent?"

    Achilles replied casually, "I have heard that you have sent Ai Tina to the Spirit Divine Realm. Therefore, I like to request to go there as well."

    The 6th Supreme Divine Godughed, "Why? Are you thinking of rekindling your fires with your old me?"

    Achilles frowned, "Why do you say so? Naturally I am going to the Spirit Divine Realm to help you to watch over Ai Tina."

    He was actually thinking of going down to the Spirit Divine Realm to stop her from doing something foolish. She was no match for the 6 masters¡­

    The 3rd Supreme Divine God said, "This won''t be necessary. We have ced plenty of restrictions on her so our secrets are safe with her. Moreover, it is really expensive to send you to the Spirit Divine Realm since your cultivation realm is so high."

    The 4th Supreme Divine God smiled wryly, "How about we gift you some of the great beauties here for a few days after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower is over? After all, we are going to have 6 new divine consorts for our pleasures soon and we will teach them what it is to be in heavens."

    Achilles frowned, "You know that I have no interest in the maidens. I exist only to be a sword for our great spiritas race."

    The 2nd Supreme Divine Godughed, "Your loyalty to us is unquestionable and indeedmendable. But we really can''t send you to the Spirit Divine Realm. As you know, the production of the immortal jades in the mines are quite bad nowadays and that is why we have sent you to the Dark Mist Great Continent in search for more new mines for us."

    The 3rd Supreme Divine God nodded in agreement, "Without you, the rest of the immortal divine lords can''t even handle the formidable primeval beasts. Last year alone, it is most unfortunate that we have actually lost 20 of our irreceable immortal divine lords from the attack of Dark Vaal the Dark Primeval Dragon. Only you can help tobat the threat of the Dark Vaal the Dark Primeval Dragon and the other formidable denizens of the Dark Mist Great Continent."

    Achilles frowned, "Surely there are other great heroes of our great spiritas race to rely upon."

    The 5th Supreme Divine God smiled, "But there are none as great as you, Achilles. You know that in terms of cultivation strength, you are only next to us. Therefore, we rely on you to lead the immortal divine lords in the Dark Mist Great Continent."

    Achilles continued to disy his displeasure but he knows that he had to remain calm.

    It was because while the 6 masters were all looking quite pleasant to him but it was just their schemes to send him far away from them to the Dark Mist Great Continent.

    While he was away, they would have no real threats to their positions of powers and he could not rally his 300 spiritas heroes to fight them.

    They did not even care if he were to perish in the Dark Mist Great Continent.

    These 6 masters were more and more selfish especially in the past couple thousands of years as they gobbled up all the cultivation resources for themselves while denying it for the other 9th cultivation realm immortal divine lords.

    Also, their harem consisted of only the most beautiful immortal divine consorts while the unattractive ones would go to the others.

    Although the other immortal divine lords resented this, but they could not say it loud.

    Achilles hated them to the very core but he had no other choice but to obey them because they were too strong when together.

    And he was not confident of taking them yet, especially against theirbined soul attack.

    The entire spiritas race had been so corrupted because of them and yet, they could not even see a single wrong.

    Most of the immortal divine lords were equally depraved as these 6 Supreme Divine Gods and even more than half of the so called 300 spiritas heroes were equally as such too.

    All of a sudden, all 6 of the Supreme Divine Gods were suddenly coughing golden blood!

    The 18 naked divine consorts were all screaming fearfully and were even panicky now!

    Even Achilles was stunned.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    What was going on?

    All of a sudden, 5 of the Supreme Divine Gods had even exploded to a bloody mess except for the most powerful 4th Supreme Divine God who was now using all his profound strength to suppress the sudden cultivation bacsh that he was experiencing.

    One of the naked divine consorts that was kneeling between his legs was Tang Li and she had immediately bit off the little brother of the 4th Supreme Divine God, causing a sudden great pain to him that resulted in him exploding as well.

    Achilles and the 18 naked divine consorts were allpletely stunned by what they were seeing; all 6 of the Supreme Divine Gods had all died at almost the same time!

    When the Goddess Ai Tina had struck Ji Yuan with the special soul attack talisman, thebined soul attack of the 6 masters had struck Ji Yuan, rendering him temporaryatose but it soon rebounded through the Goddess Ai Tina and causing her to cough out golden blood as the full power of the special soul attack talisman had rebounded.

    But this was not the worst.

    The 6 masters had all made an oath to be forever loyal to the True Devil God in the past. Perhaps the True Devil God could see that they were just selfish ingrates so he made them swear a blood oath to be forever loyal to him in whatever form.

    So, when the special soul attack talisman hits Ji Yuan, the rebound of this soul attack was 7 times greater because of the oath that they had sworn.

    In short, they had not only received a rebound that was 42 times greater than the original special soul attack talisman but they had also received a powerful bacsh to their cultivation core as well. It was like getting a bacsh 6 times because there were 6 of them.

    Even though they were all peaked 9th immortals and should be immune to a single soul attack of their own cultivation realm but the bacsh was so terrible that they themselves could not be spared from this.

    This bacsh was so terrible that it was not just a damage to their soul core but also affect their cultivation core and hence the reason why they had all exploded to a bloody mess.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had actually foreseen this oue and that was the reason why she had specially requested for the special soul attack of her 6 masters.

    It was never to avenge for the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong but to use it on the True Devil God.

    Even though she would receive a bacsh to her cultivation core due to the rebound but the real rebound would happen to her 6 masters.

    That was the reason why the Goddess Ai Tina had been looking for the True Devil God, not for her 6 masters but because she had wanted to kill her 6 masters instead.

    She did not lie to Xu Yifei that finding the True Devil God concerns the fates of both the Spirit Divine Realm and the Greater Spirit Realm.

    She had nned to sacrifice herself in this oue to repay her sins.

    When the Goddess Ai Tina saw that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was bing a real threat and none of them could fight them, she was forced to use the special soul attack talisman that was granted to her by her 6 masters.

    As she just did not want anything to happen to Xu Yifei, she had used the special soul attack talisman even though it was an irrational move.

    Since she could not predict what Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao would do next, she had decided to seize the opportunity to use the special soul attack talisman on her instead.

    But to her horror, Ji Yuan had jumped in to block the special soul attack talisman from her instead.

    At that time Ji Yuan was also not thinking rationally too.

    And it was how it resulted in the deaths of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    Achilles now turned to say to the 18 naked divine consorts, "From today onward, a new era hase to the Greater Spirit Realm. I shall lead all of you to this new era. Will you join me in my fight against the other immortal divine lords?"

    All 18 of the naked divine consorts were slowly nodding one by one as they slowly stood up for the very first time in centuries.

    Somehow, they had all trusted Achilles because he was the only one that had never sullen or dishonor them.

    Moreover, he was also the number 1 greatest legendary hero of their spiritas race.

    With the 6 masters gone, they could now see a real hope as he was also the strongest immortal divine lord now.

    2. I know it is shocking that the 6 masters all die just like *sheepish look* but this was a twist that was hinted in the Ai Tina''s chapter with the 6 masters.

 Chapter 852 Aftermath Of Number 1 Vs. Ji Yuan

    ?

    Back to the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Just a moment had only passed when Ji Yuan had fainted again.

    Ji Yuan and the Goddess Ai Tina were both unconscious now with the two greatest champions of the spiritas race had both lost to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked in the direction of the unconsciousness Goddess Ai Tina and saw she was being tended by Xu Yifei and Maiden Flower Ju.

    But for the 4 other divine consorts here as well as Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Destiny, they seemed to be more concerned if Ji Yuan was dead or alive whenpared to the Goddess Ai Tina.

    And it seemed that only Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was left unchallenged in the streets and the tens of thousands of spiritas did not know what to say and they looked disappointed.

    Was there no one that could challenge Number 1 now?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Destiny who was still checking on Ji Yuan, "You look like a strong opponent. So do you want to challenge me as well?"

    Destiny looked startled by the sudden question and she saw that there were now thousands of eyes looking at her now.

    The only face-saving measure left for the spiritas was their mysterious ''Great Oracle'' now and they did not even know that Destiny was not even their own race.

    Destiny clutched onto her long ck rod tightly before disying a smile, "I believe that you are here to fight with the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, am I right? And not anyone else."

    At her current cultivation realm, she may not be able to fight this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but she also knows that her opponent was also under a restriction in the Spirit Divine Realm as well as this ce was unfriendly to the demonic races.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "That''s right."

    "If so, then there is no point in a fight." Destiny chuckled. "Also, I am not a sword cultivator. It is pointless even if you can defeat me."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Destiny for a while before saying slowly, "Your cultivation realm should be¡­ higher than me."

    Destiny smiled, "I don''t want to be killed by someone with a lower cultivation realm today."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled too, "This may not be necessary."

    Destiny smiled, "If we fight, then you may really have to unsheathe your divine sword. Do you want that to happen?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was also smiling, "Indeed not."

    Destiny was smiling too; she knew that their conversations were over. This Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was unlike the other demonic races that she had seen in the past and she seemed to have more honor than most of her race.

    Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all startled by the conversation between Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny; they did not know that even though this may look like a causal exchange but there was also an invisible exchange between Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny.

    It was because the two of them were testing each other''s confidence with their mere words.

    In this ce, only Destiny gave Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao an uneasy feeling but she did not seem to be interested to interfere when she was dueling with the Goddess Ai Tina, Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly stood up and said with her profound voice to all in the vicinity, "Today, I have lost to your Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and so, he has won."

    When she had said that, everyone was startled and shocked at the same time.

    She had obviously won?

    But why had she dered Ji Yuan to be the victor instead?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely said, "It is dishonorable for me to suppress your Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan with my superior cultivation realm. And moreover, he has also broken several of my sword domains. I don''t think I can do as well as he did when I am just at his cultivation realm¡­"

    Originally, she had only wanted to disy her profound strength to the 7th cultivation realm to duel with this Ji Yuan and she did not put on a hope that this may even be a worthy fight whenpared to fighting with the Death God Mingwang. But the Death God God Mingwang turned up to be a pregnant maiden and this dampered her fighting spirit. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    As for this Ji Yuan, he turned up to be such a worthy adversary that she had forgotten about her increased cultivation realm when fighting him and she was only interested to disy her sword domains to defeat this genius sword cultivator that imed no one was above him if he was number 2.

    There was also something that she had left unfinished and it was: Ji Yuan, you have saved me. So I am in your debt today. Also because of you, finally I have my breakthrough to my sword dao. And maybe I can even be a real divinity because of you. So, thank you.

    She paused to say silently: When you are up Ji Yuan, I will be back briefly¡­

    But because Ji Yuan was unconscious now and there were too many people around, she did not say what was in her heart.

    She took ast look at Ji Yuan and was amused when she had remembered that he had given her 3 incense time to recuperate.

    This was totally unnecessary.

    Even though her cultivation realm was restricted in this realm but her true cultivation realm was still at the peaked 9th cultivation realm, therefore her recovery rate and profound strength was more than what Ji Yuan had supposed.

    As a matter of fact, she had barely even consumed her profound strength during her fight with both the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei since she had only relied upon her Sword Dao of the Small Universe.

    While still feeling amused, she had suddenly tiptoed to the sky with her red profound animus and in the next blink of an eye, she had flown away.

    All the onlookers did not know what to say of this but they were all smiling now. And soon everyone was all pping aloud and cheering aloud!

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan!!! All hail our Great Oracle!!!"

    "All hail Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan!!!"

    Tang Manni was relieved that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had left just like this.

    And she smiled to say to the other divine consorts, "We must all thank our Great Oracle. She helps Master Ji Yuan to avert this Number 1 great cmity from him!"

    Destiny disyed a nonchnt look but she was feeling quite awkward; it was because she had the very intention to wish Ji Yuan to die at the very start and she did not mean to save him.

    Moreover, she actually did nothing at all.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had recognized her to be a superior immortal and the two of them did not want to fight in this ce.

    Ding Jie''Er had lifted Ji Yuan by his shoulder, "Let''s get Yuan Beluga to the tavern first¡­"

    Yu Jingjing had suddenly interrupted her and she looked displeased, "Who are you to Ji Yuan? Do you know who we are to Ji Yuan? We should be the one that can be allowed to carry him."

    Tang Manni said to Yu Jingjing with a wry smile, "I don''t know about you but we are someone that is important to Master Ji Yuan. He has to rely on us for his trust points."

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi: ¡­

    Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were also smiling behind Tang Manni as they said together with great adtion for Ji Yuan, "Great Spiritas Hero belongs to us¡­"

    This fight with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had further increased the adtions that the 5 divine consorts had for Ji Yuan even though titled spiritas could only have one lord.

    Ji Yuan''s status in their hearts were now totally unshakeable and these divine consorts were now shamelessly iming Ji Yuan to be theirs instead of caring if Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were Ji Yuan''s love ones instead.

    2. In a small twist, Number 1 has actually dered JY to be the victor instead.

 Chapter 853 Ji Yuans Dream

    ?

    Ji Yuan had beenpletely drained by his fight and he had fallen into a deep slumber.

    In his deep sleep, he began to dream of Jiajia¡­

    He remembered the first time that he had met with Xia Jiajia and he had already beenpletely smitten by her.

    At that time, he had offended Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue somewhat, so he was forced into lying low for the time being.

    But not before he had extracted a promise from Xia Jiajia to wait for him for a hundred years while he had gone for his cultivation breakthrough.

    To his startled surprise, Xia Jiajia had actually agreed to pledge a promise to wait for him for 100 years while he was attempting for his sacred saint breakthrough.

    And she had even given him an earth-step divine sword as a pledge.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had no intention to actually breakthrough to the sacred saint level since he did not have a divine sword or any cultivation resources.

    He had actually lied to Jiajia about breaking through to the sacred saint cultivation as he did not know what to say to her in order to make her wait for him.

    He was actually just going to find a cave to practice his sword arts for a hundred years since there was an unspoken rule in the Deste Celestial Fraternity that as long as it was not a blood feud, if a cultivator would be willing to disappear for a hundred years, then everything would be forgiven.

    He was not exactly afraid of Xue Qianxue or Ling Feiyue since he felt he could escape from their pursues. But he was a little afraid of the celestial powerhouses behind them and he did not want to cause any troubles to his own Orthodox Sword Sect or to the Five Heavens Peak.

    So, he quickly abdicated his position as sect leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect to Ye Chengxi who was his core prot¨¦g¨¦.

    Before his abdication, Ye Chengxi was already acting sect leader anyway since Ji Yuan was always not in the Five Heavens Peak.

    Ji Yuan did not actually care to stay behind in the Five Heavens Peak since this was a poor region and he got a feeling that he was being tricked into bing sect leader by his old master.

    He summoned his two core prot¨¦g¨¦s Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan to his presence as he bade his farewell.

    He lied to Ye Chengxi, "Chengxi, today your old master is going to cultivate for a hundred years to try to have my breakthrough to the sacred saint level. From this day onward, you shall be the sect leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect."

    Ye Chengxi was startled and she quickly protested, "Master, maybe this can wait until you have exited your seclusion? Your Chengxi is too young to be a sect leader¡­"

    But Ji Yuan interrupted her, "You have already been acting sect leader while I was away. And you did good."

    Then he turned to look at Shangguan Yan, "Yan''Er, from today onward, listen to your senior prot¨¦g¨¦ sister. And practice hard. You are still too slow with your sword."

    Shangguan Yan lowered her eyes to say bitterly, "Master, sorry if your Yan''Er is unable to meet your expectations¡­"

    But Ji Yuan waved his hand to stop her, "I may not return¡­"

    He was actually thinking of looking to look for Xia Jiajia wherever she was after 100 years.

    But first, he had to pretend to cultivate for his breakthrough first.

    He told them, "We have few or little saints in our Five Heavens Peak for the past 10 000 years. So, I don''t expect to really return. Just do whatever you want with the Orthodox Sword Sect from now onward. It is perfectly alright to assume that I am dead. Farewell."

    As Ji Yuan ran off for his fake cultivation, Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had both kneeled down on the ground as a show of respect to show their old master off and they only slowly got up until he had long disappeared into the mountains.

    There were numerous mountains in the Five Heavens Peak and there was a hidden cave that Ji Yuan had long decided that this would be the ce where he would use for his secret cultivation one day.

    And to think that today he would be using this hidden cave.

    Cultivation to the sacred saint level?

    Ji Yuan thought this may be a joke at his age since he was still so young at 400 years.

    What if he has failed?

    Then won''t he have wasted his young life by getting himself killed for trying to make a forceful breakthrough?

    Better to wait for his cultivation to be more matured and when he was more ready.

    One must know that there were many cultivators that were from the major celestial sects that were all dreaming of the sacred saint level as well and even though they may have the cultivation resources from their celestial sects to back them but they stillck the destinies for it.

    Even Ji Yuan''s bitter rival Jin Yilong was only at the sixth cultivation realm even though he had been a golden celestial far longer than Ji Yuan and he had the best cultivation resources from his celestial sect to back him up.

    Therefore, Ji Yuan''s cultivation was already considered to be quite speedy.

    But it was still no match for the cultivation speed of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue who were both much younger than him.

    But Ji Yuan did not care for their cultivation speed even though they may be powerful saintesses of the seventh cultivation sacred saint realm now.

    He was just wondering how the heck did he manage to offend these two powerful saintesses at the same time and he was even caught watching their secret duel which was a taboo to watch.

    When Ling Feiyue had caused Xue Qianxue to fall down the cliff, Ji Yuan was actually feeling guilty that he was the one that had caused Xue Qianxue to lose with his random babblings to Ling Feiyue.

    And somehow his martial honor pushed him to catch Xue Qianxue when she was falling even though he knows that she would not die from a fall but she may end up being injured and got killed by Ling Feiyue because of him.

    He did not want to spoil the fairness of their duel because this was against his martial honor.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Screwed it!

    It doesn''t matter to him anymore!

    Since he had already offended Xue Qianxue once before and offending one more Ling Feiyue did not matter to him anymore especially when he was on his way to his 100 years of seclusion anyway.

    As long as they could not find him, he would still be a winner in the end.

    He could already imagine himself holding Xia Jiajia with his hand 100 yearster. Haha¡­

    There was a high chance that these two saintesses may have already forgotten about him 100 yearster anyway since they had no real blood feud. Surely, they can''t be so bored as to remember a nobody like him?

    If they have so much time, they may as well try to fight each other since they are both from the opposing orthodox and unorthodox celestial sects.

    Ji Yuan spent the first 10 years practicing with his sword in the cave as he was too restless to cultivate.

    He would swing 10 000 times daily with his sword on his right hand and 15 000 times daily with his sword on his left hand.

    Unknown to him, Jiajia had already found him in the cave and she was invisible to him.

    She was worried that Ji Yuan may really go for his breakthrough so she had secretly setup a formidable array to help him.

    At the same time, she had also moved to the Five Heavens Peak and founded the Emperor Hall Sect so that she would be nearby to him.

    Using just her hearing, Jiajia was quick to deduct that Ji Yuan was actually a left-hander while pretending to be a right hander. His left hand was actually stronger and quicker than his right hand.

    Almost every day, she would secretly pay a visit to this secret cave to check on Ji Yuan.

    By the 10th year, Ji Yuan was bored of his seclusion.

    So, he spent the next 30 years going down the deste mists to test his skills against the deste beasts below.

    By the 40th year, he had thought of paying Guo Taiming or Xiao Muhan a visit but he was afraid that news of him exiting his seclusion would spread quickly and this would be a p on his face in front of Jiajia.

    So, he sucked his thumb and actually cultivate a little very day.

    Compared to cultivation, he was more interested to train his speed with his sword.

    At the end of the 90 years, he managed to swing 15 000 times with his sword on his right hand and 21 000 times with his left hand.

    This was in additional to his speed and stealth training which he trained by going down below the deste mist often.

    But he was a little panicky after 90 years when he began to question what would Jiajia think of him if he fails to cultivate to the sacred saint level?

    And also because he seemed to have heard Jiajia''s voice in his ears suggesting to him, "May you should try to attempt for your breakthrough. I can help you..."

    So, he sucked his thumb again and he began to cultivate for a forceful breakthrough for real.

    Maybe this is the power of the irrational love that cause Ji Yuan to gamble on his forceful breakthrough!

    While he was cultivating, he did not know that Jiajia would secretly ce a couple of high-level spirit stones near to the cave for him to drawn upon his spiritual aura to cultivate.

    Jiajia did not want to make it so obvious that she was there to help him and it did not matter to her even if Ji Yuan had failed in his breakthrough to the sacred saint level.

    But Ji Yuan had actually figured out how to breakthrough to the half-step sacred saint level during hisst 10 years with just a divine sword in his hand.

    With some tips from Jiajias'' voice of course.

    Sometimes he would cultivate wrongly but he would always hear Jiajia''s encouraging voice in his mind as she correctly pointed to him on the right way to cultivate for a breakthrough, saving him plenty of wrongful cultivations.

    Naturally Ji Yuan thought that it must be because he had missed Jiajia so much that he was even hearing her voice.

    He did not receive any backsh to his cultivation core on his very first attempt for the forceful breakthrough to the sacred saint level.

    Unknown to him, Jiajia had secretly watched him with her divine sense and she would step in to intervene if things go haywire.

    That was also the reason why Jiajia was so inattentive to the affairs at the Emperor Hall Sect because her only concern was just Ji Yuan.

    Actually, there was a little backsh after Ji Yuan had breakthrough to the sacred saint level; something went terribly wrong during his cultivation breakthrough and he had actually lost his precious beard¡­

    But this was not an unexpected news for Jiajia because she had deliberately misled Ji Yuan a little...

 Chapter 854 Another Immortal Divine Lord Has Descended

    ?

    When the Goddess Ai Tina opened her eyes, she was lying on a bed and next to her was Xu Yifei.

    She looked startled, "I am still alive?"

    Xu Yifei had bleary eyes as she nodded with dness, "I have managed to pull you back but your cultivation core is damaged. And the Great Oracle has also helped you. And also, Number 1 has left. So we are all safe now. You don''t have to worry too much and can fully rest until you have recovered now."

    Indeed, there was no one as skillful in profound healing as Xu Yifei in the entire Snowy Pavilion City and not even Destiny was close to her in this aspect.

    However, Destiny had helped to stabilize the Goddess Ai Tina''s cultivation core, saving Xu Yifei plenty of trouble.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had received the bacsh of her 6 masters and not just one and the bacsh shock had almost killed her instantly when her cultivation core began to crack.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was still looking dazed and in shock before she suddenly recalled something important that was in her mind just before she had copsed.

    She grabbed Xu Yifei and said, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is the True Devil God, am I right?"

    Xu Yifei was startled by this sudden question but she refused to acknowledge it.

    "You don''t have to hide it from me anymore because I know." The Goddess Ai Tina was sighing heavily now. "Because the special soul attack talisman has bacshed on me and only the True Devil God is immune to it."

    Finally, Xu Yifei managed a slight nod.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was smiling all of a sudden, "This is good because I have nned to use this special soul attack talisman on the True Devil God anyway."

    Xu Yifei: ???

    The Goddess Ai Tina closed her eyes for a while, "It seems that all my restrictions have also been removed so this means that my 6 masters are all dead now¡­"

    Xu Yifei was perplexed when she had heard her.

    What 6 masters?

    The Goddess Ai Tina finally opened her eyes to say to Xu Yifei, "Child, Ji Yuan may be a hero but he is after all the True Devil God and he is the enemy of the Great Beyond Goddess so we have to kill him too. It will be a disaster if he is to go to the Greater Spirit Realm one day."

    Xu Yifei shook her head and returned a resolutely look, "No. Ji Yuan may be the True Devil God but he won''t be a disaster to the Greater Spirit Realm. And also, he isn''t an enemy of the Great Beyond Goddess."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was quiet for a while before she asked softly, "You are sure?"

    Xu Yifei nodded firmly.

    "He doesn''t need to block your special soul attack talisman for Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao but he did. An evil True Devil God won''t do such a thing. Moreover¡­"

    This time round Xu Yifei had hesitated because the Great Beyond Goddess had told her to keep the identity of Ji Yuan a secret and to even himself.

    Furthermore, Ji Yuan is a good friend of the Great Beyond Goddess, who explicitly stated as much to her.

    All of a sudden, the transmission in the room began to say panicky and it was the voice of Maiden Flower Ju, "We may have an emergency. An immortal divine lord has suddenly appeared in the tavern!"

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei were both startled.

    Xu Yifei said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "I will be back shortly."

    But the Goddess Ai Tina said firmly, "Take me with you. I can''t let you fight this immortal divine lord alone."

    Because the Goddess Ai Tina was firm, Xu Yifei had no other choice but to bring her downstairs.

    When they went down the stairs, they were started to see that Ji Yuan was also going down with the other 4 divine consorts as well as Chu Lixue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.

    Ji Yuan had actually just awakened and he was startled to see himself surrounded by 7 beautiful maidens and not Jiajia.

    Then he had realized that he had been dreaming of Jiajia instead.

    And just as he had awakened from his slumber, he had also heard the transmission that was by Maiden Flower Ju.

    This shocked him; there was another immortal divine lord in the tavern now?!

    So he hurriedly picked himself up and rushed down with the 7 maidens around him.

    That was how he had also bumped into the Goddess Ai Tina and Xu Yifei at the same time.

    When they had all arrived at the scene, they could see a handsome male spiritas saying respectfully to Destiny, "So it is the Great Oracle of Delphi. I didn''t expect to see you here in this ce."

    Destiny was sitting while sipping her spirit tea and she said without looking up, "Mm, so it is Achilles. The legendary spiritas hero and also the greatest hero of the spiritas. It has been a very long time."

    Achilles said quietly, "A very long time indeed¡­"

    But all of a sudden, he had spotted the Goddess Ai Tinaing down and he had immediately looked into her direction.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had turned pale all of a sudden and she was saying bitterly, "So it is you, Achilles! Have youe to settle your score with me?"

    The 5 divine consorts were looking at one another in confusion; they had heard Destiny mentioned that this Achilles was the greatest hero of the spiritas but they had no idea who he was. It was because the present spiritas history had erased all records of the old divine lords'' histories, preserving only the spiritas heroines'' ount.

    But Xu Yifei had heard the Goddess Ai Tina mentioned about Achilles in the legendary Secret Oracle Gate and she was bitter with him

    But when Xu Yifei looked at this Achilles, she felt a weird feeling of intimacy about him. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    And at this moment, Achilles had also noticed Xu Yifei as well and he too feel a kind of unspeakable closeness with her.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to everyone, "Everyone, take him down together. He is an enemy! He is a great sinner of our spiritas race!"

    "Wait!"

    Achillies had suddenly shouted and the shockwave of his voice had momentarily frozen everyone; it was because this profound shout was at the 9th immortal positioning cultivation realm and he was a powerful immortal divine lord, stronger than even the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong!

    "I didn''te here to fight with any one of you." He began to soften his voice to say with a heavy sigh.

    "I know that I am a great sinner, just as Ai Tina has called me. But things have now changed in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Achilles had now turned to look at the Goddess Ai Tina and he looked concerned, "You are injured."

    The Goddess Ai Tina hummed coldly, "This is none of your business."

    Achilles said, "Come with me to the Greater Spirit Realm. This ce can''t treat your injuries. I havee specially for you."

    The Goddess Ai Tina hummed, "You havee to punish me, am I right?"

    She refused to believe in Achilles because in all these years, Achilles had never even taken a look at her. Not even once even when they were in the same audience hall with the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    Achilles shook his head, "There is now no more of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods and I am leading an uprising in the Greater Spirit Realm. I need you, Ai Tina to fight on my side."

    The Goddess Ai Tinaughed coldly, "Weird. Isn''t this what you have said to me a long time ago as well? Are you trying to deceive me once again?"

    Achilles shook his head, "I admitted that I have deceived you in the past but I have no other choice. Just like you have no other choice too. We are all puppets of the 6 Supreme Divine Gods."

    "Help you? Hmph! Never!" The Goddess Ai Tina hummed coldly.

    Achilles said quietly, "Not help me but all of us. If youe with me then you will be new ruler of the Greater Spirit Realm and I will help you to establish your new order."

    The Goddess Ai Tina refused to believe him as sheughed coldly, "Achilles, you are so humorous. Compared to your cultivation realm, I am just a lowly immortal. In all these thousands of years, I have not been cultivating and you want me to make me the new ruler of the Greater Spirit Realm?"

    Achilles nodded firmly, "Yes, I am here today to bring you back as the new ruler of the Greater Spirit Realm. This is also the wishes of all the immortal divine consorts in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    The Goddess Ai Tina was suddenly stunned, "The wishes of all the immortal divine consorts?"

    Then she swayed her body as sheughed coldly, "They should all be hating me. Achilles, enough of your lies. How many times must you continue to hurt me? How many times must you betray me? This is soudable, soudable! Get lost, Achilles!"

    Achilles had suddenly put a voice transmission slip into her hands, "I know that you won''t believe me. But listen to the voices of these immortal divine consorts first."

    The Goddess Ai Tina took the transmission slip with trembling fingers before she hummed coldly, "This is all your trick. You can force them to lie to me. Isn''t this what you are capable of?"

    "Ai Tina, I love you." Achilles had suddenly said solemnly.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was startled¡­

    But why didn''t you want to take a look at me?

    Achilles said slowly, "You must be ming me for not looking for you or even take a nce at you. This is because I am afraid to look at you. I have deceived you and I am also a great sinner."

    "You love me? Do you know that you have caused the death of our daughter just because you forbid her to cultivate?" The Goddess Ai Tina had burst into tears and her voice was now broken. "I''ll never forgive you because of this!"

    Achilles was shocked and he was sorrowful too, "I only did that because I didn''t want her to be a divine consort and experienced the ill-fate in the Greater Spirit Realm. I just want our daughter to have a long life in the Spirit Divine Realm. Am I wrong¡­"

    All of a sudden Xu Yifei had burst into tears too and she was saying with a trembling voice, "You¡­ are my¡­ grandfather?"

    Achilles just then nced at Xu Yifei again and he was gasping, "You are of my bloodline? It is no wonder that I sense a certain affinity that is between us¡­"

    As he said that, he had actually taken a step toward Xu Yifei but he was immediately stopped by the Goddess Ai Tina, "Don''t touch her!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly spoken, "May junior says something to the Goddess Ai Tina? You should go with this Achilles to the Greater Spirit Realm."

    The Goddess Ai Tina said coldly to Ji Yuan but it was more respectful than Achilles. "Why do you say that?"

    Ji Yuan sighed, "It is obvious that he loves you or else he won''t be here. We are not his match so why should he lies to us?"

    This naturally excluded Destiny who was still sitting away from them.

    "You should go with him." Destiny had suddenly said as she looked up from sipping her spirit tea.

    The Great Oracle had spoken.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was gasping now; It was because if the Great Oracle had spoken then it means that Achilles was speaking the truth.

    Actually she did not know that Destiny had only spoken because Ji Yuan had spoken and not because she had a divination on this.

 Chapter 855 The Great Games Must Go On!

    ?

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Achilles were left alone to have a little chat to themselves.

    And they had chatted for some time.

    Finally, they had exited the room where they were in and once again, they were back to look at Ji Yuan, the 5 divine consorts, Chu Lixue, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Maiden Flower Ju, Destiny and the tens of female spiritas that were around.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan was being bothered by and receiving plenty of attentions from the 8 beautiful maidens that were surrounding him (the 5 divine consorts, Chu Lixue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing).

    It was also because he had just awakened from his slumber and he had immediately rushed down upon hearing the emergency transmission. The reason why he had been so exhausted was not because he had expended just his profound strength from his inner spiritual sea but also because he had consumed plenty of his life force vitality as well.

    But he was not in any serious life threatening danger from over consuming his life force energies; it was because his sword aura now protected him from a sudden death now from consuming his life force energies. He just needs more rest to recuperate his life force vitality and no amount of profound pills could be able to help him.

    "Master Ji Yuan, are you really alright?"

    "If you not feeling good, please tell us¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga, are there any ces where you are still feeling hurt?"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan must be secretly suppressing your pain and did not want to tell us¡­"

    If anyone cares to know if Xiao Muhan was in the tavern or not and why he was not here, it was worth mentioning that he was indeed in his room in this tavern but Maiden Flower Ju had supposed that it was not worth mentioning to him via the emergency transmission in his room that an immortal divine lord was in the tavern.

    The Goddess Ai Tina turned to address all of them by saying quietly, "I''ll be leaving with Achilles to the Greater Spirit Realm this very night."

    Her sudden deration shocked Xu Yifei, Ji Yuan and all the rest.

    Achilles said too, "That''s right. We are both leaving for the Great Spirit Realm together."

    Xu Yifei was stunned and her voice trembled slightly in shock, "But what about the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower? The Goddess Ai Tina said she would there, right?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled as she took the hands of Xu Yifei, "We will be witnessing the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower from the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Achilles nodded.

    Earlier Achilles had a discussion with the Goddess Ai Tina.

    There is still a war in the Greater Spirit Realm that is waiting for them.

    Luckily for Achilles, 10% or 30 of the 300 immortal spiritas heroes were on Achilles'' side. And these 30 spiritas heroes were all much stronger than most of the depraved immortal divine lords.

    Also, he also had 3 equally strong immortal spiritas heroes as his closepanions to fight against the other immortal divine lords in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Therefore, he was actually not alone.

    Even though most of the immortal divine consorts were weak 8th spirit realm cultivators but they numbered slightly more than 300.

    So Achilles was able to hold off the advances of the other immortal divine lords from all over the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Most of the immortal divine lords were not only depraved but they were also quite cowardly and did not actually dare to fight against Achilles and his group of powerful immortal spiritas heroes.

    Achilles said, "However, we are changing the rules of the spiritas tower from now onward. None of you will be able to ascend to the Greater Spirit Realm and from now onward, you have to rely on your own cultivation strength to make your ascension. However, we will still give an appropriate reward to the 6 divine consorts that emerged as divine champions in the Spiritas Tower."

    This news startled and shocked Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    Tang Manni was the most shocked, "Then I won''t get to see my mother consort anytime soon?"

    She had thought that she had only lost her qualification for this round to see her mother consort again but she would try to win as a divine champion 500 yearster instead.

    The Goddess Ai Tina turned to Tang Manni to say, "Child, I''ve changed my mind about you not joining in the Spiritas Tower this year. You will be allowed to do so because your mother consort in the Spirit Divine Realm will like to see you in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower."

    All of a sudden, the eyes of Tang Manni began to brighten and even be bleary, "Really? My mother consort hopes to see me¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Achilles and the Goddess Ai Tina quietly looked at each other; after a discussion, they had decided not to let the divine consorts in the Spirit Divine Realm know about the tragic events in the Great Spirit Realm.

    Instead, they would purge all the dark elements in the Greater Spirit Realm first.

    The real wars with the depraved immortal divine lords were only just starting and they did not want to bust the illusions of the Greater Spirit Realm for anyone or exin about the ''6 Supreme Divine Gods'' that the 5 divine consorts had overheard.

    All the divine consorts in the Spirit Divine Realm only have to know one thing and it is that when they are finally readied to ascend, the Greater Spirit Realm will be exactly as they have hoped to be.

    The Goddess Ai Tina said to the 5 divine consorts but this time, she was smiling, "The spiritas has long lives. You should all learn to appreciate your life in the Spirit Divine Realm instead. The purpose of the Spiritas Tower is originally a divine tool to enable me to get more immortal divine consorts as additional help to fight against the depraved immortal divine lords in the Greater Spirit Realm. Since, we are already winning the war, there is no point in keeping the original purpose of the Spiritas Tower anymore."

    Then she pointed to Achilles, "Just now we have a little misunderstanding here. So, I want all of you to forget what you have heard. This is a small request from me. I also want all of you to know that not all the immortal divine lords are bad in the Greater Spirit Realm and among our allies, are some of the great spiritas heroes that are standing on our side."

    Achilles had suddenly kneeled with one foot on the ground, "I, Achilles is willing to pledge my undying oath to the Goddess Ruler Divine Consort Ai Tina of the Greater Spirit Realm!"

    The Goddess Ai Tina slowly nodded and at the brink of her eyes, were her shimmering tears; it is because she has always loved Achilles and she is so d that Achilles has not forgotten about her.

    She had suddenly turned to smile at Ji Yuan, "Thank you Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. You have my eternal great thanks."

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "I did something?"

    He had merely suggested for the Goddess Ai Tina to return to the Greater Spirit Realm with Achilles. This was not anything that was worth mentioning, much less of a great thanks.

    The Goddess Ai Tina merely smiled but did not say anything; without Ji Yuan to block the special soul attack talisman, she would not be able to kill the 6 masters that had been quing the Greater Divine Spirit.

    This was an eternal great thanks!

    "I think," the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly returned a wry smile to Ji Yuan. "I have observed that during our trip to the legendary Secret Oracle Gate, you and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is actually apatible pair."

    Ji Yuan was stunned when she had suddenly said and immediately Xu Yifei was flustered as she looked panicky at Ji Yuan.

    As for other maidens, they were all looking at Xu Yifei with an envious look for she had received the praise of the Goddess Ai Tina in the presence of everyone that she waspatible to Ji Yuan!

    Chu Lixue was not one to mince her words as she sarcastically said, "He must have done something funny to the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei in the legendary Secret Oracle Gate."

    Ji Yuan knew that his senior sister was jealous and he was quickly protesting, "Actually I did not¡­"

    But as he was trying to exin this, a soft and yet powerful profound voice had suddenly sounded in the tavern.

    "I am so sorry to disturb this sweet moment. Ji Yuan, the moon tonight is really beautiful. Do you dare toe to the rooftop to have a little chat with me?"

    It was the profound voice of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Xu Yifei was startled that the defensive arrays around her tavern did not trigger its rm.

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were both saying to Ji Yuan, "Don''t go. This may be a trap¡­"

    But Ji Yuan had already walked to the entrance of the tavern and he said to everyone, "It is only a little chat and not a fight. There is no need to be so nervous."

    With that he had disappeared outside.

    Destiny looked up again from sipping her spirit tea and was thinking: She is back again?

    2. The Great Games of the Spiritas Tower must go on!

 Chapter 856 Ji Yuan And Number 1

    ?

    Ji Yuan had indeed spotted Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao sitting on the roof top and she was looking at the 2 full moons of the night skies.

    She was not even looking at him when he had tiptoed to the roof top.

    But like her, Ji Yuan was able to avoid stepping on the invisible defensive arrays that wereid on the roof.

    His divine sense was no less inferior to her.

    And also, because Ji Yuan had plenty of experiences in circumstancing the various defensive arrays too as he often did dishonorable things peeking over the rooftops of the various celestial sects in the past and he was rarely caught.

    But of course, he could only stay at the weaker perimeter and not the interior where the defensive arrays were more secure and covered arger perimeter.

    She merely said at his approach, "It seems that this tavern is a little crowded tonight. A powerful immortal seems to be inside now."

    She was naturally referring to Achilles.

    "Maybe you should challenge him to a fight instead." Ji Yuan sarcastically said.

    But Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely disyed an uninterested smile.

    Ji Yuan did not feel a threat from her at this moment and he even had the guts to sit down next to her before asking, "Mm, you want to have a little chat with me?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said to him without turning to look at him while still appreciating the moons, "You have actually dared toe alone? You are not afraid of me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I can''t fight you at this moment and surely this isn''t what you want, am I right? Moreover, if you want to fight me, you would have stormed the tavern instead. There is no need to retort to any tricks. And moreover¡­"

    "And moreover?" Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly turned to look at Ji Yuan with a perplexed look.

    Ji Yuan had inhaled deeply as heid his back onto the sloping roof, "And moreover, if your purpose is to kill me then you won''t dere me as the victor in our duel. You are not a sore loser, this I am very sure."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled slowly but said nothing.

    Ji Yuan turned to look at her beautiful countenance which was truly beautiful under the moon light, "You say that you want to have a little chat with me? What is it?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao curled a smile, "I just want to tell you that I will be going for a little fun trip in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for a short while. And then when we meet outside again, we shall be enemies once again. So, it is either you die or I die thereafter and I won''t show you any mercy."

    Ji Yuan did not look surprised and instead he asked curiously, "Isn''t it much easier to kill me now when you have the chance? You know, I may not lose to you the next round."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao chuckled, "It seems that I am not the only one that hasprehended something during our fight."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly, "Why are you so smart?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao answered, "Then I will be expecting our next fight."

    Ji Yuan disyed a nonchnt look as he said matter of fact, "Actually I have not confident that I will be able to defeat you. The disparity between us is too big, especially in terms of our cultivation realms and I don''t think you will lower your cultivation realm to fight me in the next fight."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao nodded, "I don''t deny that."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Is this why you havee to tell me? This little chat of yours?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she returned to look at the moons, "The moons here are really beautiful. This ce is a lovely ce. Unfortunately like I say, I''ll be leaving tonight. Don''t you want to know the reason why I am looking for you?"

    "Well, I am listening." Ji Yuan chuckled softly.

    "I have met your son in the Five Heavens Peak and I''ve almost killed him." Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said with no remorse.

    Ji Yuan straightened himself immediately, "What the heck? Did you kill him?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned to look at him with a wry smile, "Almost kill him. I wanted to behead him but I am afraid that he is a little too tough so he lives."

    Ji Yuan was frowning now, "What does my son got to do with challenging me?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao took a look at him as she disyed a wry smile, "He seems tough so I think his father should be tougher. Moreover, he was praising you and so I have decided to look for you for a fight."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This reason is a little too flimsy. She got nothing better to do?

    "Are you mad now?" Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao looked at him and it sounded more like a challenge. "After all, I have every intention to kill him."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan asked bitterly, "And why didn''t you then?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao simply said, "He is already a fallen cultivator. Since he has survived, there is no point in killing him."

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved that his son was alive, "Don''t tell me that you havee to tell me this?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao shook her head slightly before she turned to say to him slowly, "Not really. I want to ask what yourst wish for helping me to unravel the blocker in my cultivation. As long as it isn''t something against my honor, I can do it for you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "What if I ask you not to help the Great Demon God?"

    "This is not possible." Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly.

    Ji Yuan began to frown slowly¡­

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked, "I do have a curious question though. Did you learn your life destruction swords from the Death God Mingwang?"

    Ji Yuan answered honestly but he was also looking nervous, "I was inspired by the life and death sword energies of the Death God Mingwang. You have fought with the Death God Mingwang?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao turned to look at him with an appraising look, "I didn''t think that the Death God Mingwang will be a she. This is so surprising. However, since she is pregnant, I''m not interested to fight with her anymore. Her life and destruction swords are extremely deadly and I''m interested to fight her one day to find out if she is stronger than I am."

    Ji Yuan looked a little relieved when he had heard that Yun Chi was alright¡­

    This was not lost on Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But she quickly turned to said solemnly, "Although the life and destruction swords can rapidly increase your profound power but against a superior opponent, you have to decide carefully which of your sword arts that really warrant you to expend your life force energies. Against me, you have used your life destruction swords 5 times and you still cannot defeat me. I guess that your 6th sword art is also a life and destruction sword, am I right?"

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly; Indeed, she had guessed correctly.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s sword domains are not life and destruction swords simply because the profound power of her sword arts is too powerful and it may even be fatal to her. But that is also why she can keep increasing the profound power of her sword arts with her sword domains as she need not fear about any bacsh to her life force vitality.

    She stated nonchntly to Ji Yuan as though she was a teacher that was giving a student a pointer, "Your weakness is that you can''t use your most powerful sword arts or sword domains repeatedly due to this constraint."

    Ji Yuan could not dispute her so he merely nodded; she was just too sharp.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly got up and she said quietly, "Well, you don''t have to tell me about your wish now. You still have plenty of time to think about it before we cross swords the next time."

    She paused to add with a wry smile, "That''s all, Number 2 Sword Under the Heavens."

    After she had said that, she had suddenly leapt in the heaven above and she was holding the golden talisman in her fingers to burn it.

    In just 3 blinks of an eye, the golden talisman was burnt and she had disappeared from view.

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself, "If I say I want to screw you, will that be alright with you?"

    Even after Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was long gone, Ji Yuan continued toy on the roof as he watched the two moons that were in the night sky and he began to ponder what she had told him.

    Ji Yuan had fought against both Yun Chi and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao now and their sword cultivations werepletely different.

    Therefore, maybe if he wants to stand his ground against them, he has toe out with his own path in the sword cultivation.

    "Well. Xiang Li and Anyang, what do you think?"

    Xiang Li giggled as she answered him, "I totally agree with what Big Brother has just said. If you screwed her like Maiden Yun Chi then she has no choice but to surrender her skirt to you."

    When she had said this, Ji Yuan was so startled by her remarks that he dropped down t from the rooftop.

    Xiang Li panicky called out, "Big Brother, are you alright?"

    Anyang shook her head weakly, "Xiang Li, I am afraid that you just shocked our lord with your remarks¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherent while on the ground, "Xiang Li, are you really a maiden¡­"

 Chapter 857 Return To The Greater Spirit Realm

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had returned to the tavern, almost everyone that cared for him was waiting for him anxiously, afraid that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao may harm him.

    Almost immediately, many of the maidens were crowding around him and checking if he has lost a hair or a piece of clothing.

    But there was a nonchnt look on Ji Yuan and he was soon grinning to the maidens. "Haha. There is nothing to worry about this. We just have a friendly chat, that''s all."

    His attention however had quickly returned to Achilles and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    The Goddess Ai Tina and Achilles took onest look at Xu Yifei before they said to everyone, "We''re leaving now."

    Xu Yifei looked really heart broken when the only familial ties had suddenly dered that she was leaving.

    The Goddess Ai Tina also took onest look at Tang Manni as she said, "Tang Manni, you and Xu Yifei are both sisters. I hope that this will stay this way forever."

    Tang Manni smiled as she looked at Xu Yifei, "We are always close sisters!"

    Xu Yifei nodded firmly as she took Tang Manni''s hands; during her loss of status as a great divine consort, her Sister Tang Manni is ever as supportive as her and she has continued to disy great respect for this sister of hers.

    The Goddess Ai Tina nodded quietly; this debt to Tang Li, she will never be able topensate enough. The only thing left for her to do left to do is topensate Tang Li all she can in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Lastly, she also took a look at Destiny that did not join in themotion before asking curiously. "I wonder what the Great Oracle intends to do after this?"

    This was a valid question that none of the 5 divine consorts dared to ask of their Sacred Great Oracle lest they happened to offend her with their impolite disrespect.

    However, the Goddess Ai Tina did not care for this anymore since she was now cutting short of her days in the Spirit Divine Realm to return to the Greater Spirit Realm now.

    Destiny put down the cup of spirit tea that she had been sipping quietly before saying enigmatically, "The threat of this Number 1 great cmity is not over yet!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When she had said that, the 5 divine consorts, Chu Lixue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all gasping with shock as well.

    "But don''t worry," Destiny said promptly. "With me around, the Great Spiritas Hero will note to harm for the time being."

    Sun Dingjun said with a sudden inspiration, "I get it now. I think Number 1 is afraid of our Great Oracle and that is why she dares not kill Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan!"

    "This sounds logical!" Ding Jie''Er nodded as she smiled at how powerful the influence of their Great Oracle was.

    Even Dongfang Xin and Tang Manni could not help but nodded after Ding Jie''Er as well,pletely agreeing with her!

    The Goddess Ai Tina merely smiled before she inhaled deeply, "Farewell everyone."

    She nodded to Achilles before the two of them as they departed to the outside.

    Ji Yuan, the five divine consorts, Chu Lixue, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Maiden Flower Ju and many of the female followers of the respectfully bowed with their hands or with the spiritas gesture of the hand on their bosoms to send off the Goddess Ai Tina.

    When the Goddess Ai Tina and Achilles were outside, the Goddess Ai Tina asked Achilles softly. "You are not afraid that I won''t forgive you?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Without disying any emotions, Achilles answered gently. "Does it really matter anymore? You can take my life anytime if you want to."

    The Goddess Ai Tina gently put on her slender fingers on his broad arm, "We are now freed of the shackles and restrictions of the 6 masters. I know that you have no other choice too. The 6 masters had never trust anyone¡­"

    When Achilles was fighting in the Spirit Divine Realm with her, he too was under a restriction by the powerful 6 masters, just like Ai Tina was also under simr restriction here.

    Although this was a temporary restriction that would be lifted after they had returned to the Greater Spirit Realm but it was still a heart wrenching restriction anyway.

    Although the Goddess Ai Tina had created an emotional outburst earlier when Achille had suddenly appeared, it was only because she still loved him.

    One must know that men and women are different in their emotional disy; if a woman hates a former lover, they will never bother to talk a word more. But if she still loves a man, then she will be willing to talk to the man even if her words are hurtful.

    Deep in her heart, she knows that Achilles had never taken another maiden beside her in the Greater Spirit Realm. Even though she knows that he was protecting her by appearing to be indifferent to her, she was still angry.

    Not because she was betrayed by Achilles but by his indifferent coldness even though she knows his reason.

    And even though she also knows that he was protecting their only daughter from harm but she just wants to rant to him over her unhappiness and the death of their only daughter.

    But Achilles being Achilles continued to have a good temper even though she wanted him to disy a hint of emotion.

    Achilles loved the Goddess Ai Tina since the beginning and she was his Achilles'' heel. He did not want to betray her trust in her but he was under a restrictive order from the 6 masters to aid Ai Tina to be the First Divine Consort and to kill off all the other divine lords of the Spirit Divine Realm.

    He was the greatest hero of the spiritas and yet, he had be a puppet of the 6 ancient Supreme Divine Gods that gobbled up all the resources of the Greater Spirit Realm for themselves and they were emotionless when the other immortal divine lords were lost to the other powerful denizens of the Greater Spirit Realm.

    He merely said as he took out the immortal inscription talisman to send them back to the Greater Spirit Realm, "Finally this time round, we will set everything right again."

    As the Goddess Ai Tina nodded, a white light washed over them before sending them like a white shooting star up to the heavens.

    "Right, Achille. A new war awaits us in the Greater Spirit Realm."

    There was a hint of emotion in Achilles'' eyes as he answered, "Kill them all."

    Achille is not only the greatest legendary spiritas hero of the spiritas but he is also a fearsome warrior-god of his race. With the 6 Supreme Divine Gods dead, Achille is now the highest level immortal in the Greater Spirit Realm at the peaked 9th immortal spirit realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina has finallypletely what she had wanted to achieve after so many years and she had finally killed the 6 Supreme Divine Gods.

    Together with Achilles'' help, she is going to create a new Greater Spirit Realm for the divine consorts in the Greater Spirit Realm.

    Also, these two ill-fated lovers are finally united again after so many years of separation.

    From this day onward, the immortal realm of the Greater Spirit Realm will also have a new Goddess Ruler Ai Tina; the strengths of Ai Tina lies not in her cultivation strength but her leadership and intellect.

 Chapter 858 Night With Yu Jingjing And Yang Mi

    ?

    This night was not peaceful at all.

    It was because Ji Yuan was being surrounded by the presence of 8 beautiful maidens.

    He firmly said to everyone, "I didn''t see Maiden Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing for quite some time now. So I''d like to have a private chat with them."

    When he had said that, what else could the rest of the maidens say?

    Nothing.

    It was because this was a most reasonable request.

    Beside with 2 maidens around, there was no way for Ji Yuan to try to do anything funny.

    Therefore the 5 divine consorts decided to retire for the night.

    Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and even Tang Manni were all actually staying for the night in the tavern as they had put aside everything for today.

    Chu Lixue merely whispered to her half-sister Yang Mi before she left for her room, "Sister. Don''t be tricked by this little rascal."

    Soon, Ji Yuan was with Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing in his personal room and he wasughing, "I didn''t expect that the two of you will be in this ce. Also, the 2 of you look really great in your spiritas clothing."

    There were flushes from Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing at the same time; they were aware that the spiritas clothing was really too liberal.

    But after wearing the spiritas clothing, they have actually liked it and also, they have no grudges against it since all the maidens around here are all wearing the same.

    But to have it pointed out by Ji Yuan was still quite awkward for them.

    "This is too revealing, I don''t like it." Yang Mi pretended toin.

    Yu Jingjing pretended to hum coldly, "I still prefer my sect''s robe!"

    They were lying in front of Ji Yuan though as they wanted to appear to be modest in front of him.

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed as he sighed, "It is such a pity. I have brought several dozens of these spiritas clothing for all of you and they have more profound defenses than your celestial robes¡­"

    "Show it to us?" Yu Jingjing had suddenly interrupted him with a soft giggle. "We can always wear these spiritas spirit clothing inside our normal celestial robes."

    "That''s right." Yang Mi was smiling shyly too. "It will be such a pity to waste our lord''s kind intentions."

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he quickly took out the dozens of spiritas spirit thongs that he had purchased while he was here.

    These spiritas spirit clothing actually looked more like thongs or lingerie than a proper full clothing.

    The sight of these dozens of spiritas spirit clothing quickly excited Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing to no ends as they excitedly browse their likes through them.

    Even Fairy Anyang was looking quite envious in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she watched them; it had taken her a long time to choose her favorites and she was still undecided which of the 3 spiritas clothing should she picked even after so many days.

    There was a reluctant look in her eyes when she saw Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing touching one of her favorite spirit clothing to look it.

    Xiang Li was neutral though and she was happy to admire the spirit clothing that was on the other maidens, just like Ji Yuan.

    While Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were browsing for their spirit clothing of choice, Ji Yuan was already fondling their waists and he wasughing softly. "Jingjing, Yang Mi. Don''t you miss your lord?"

    They were immediately flustered as they know what Ji Yuan was trying to say to them.

    Yu Jingjing pretended to look angry with him, "Don''t you want to hear why we are here? Don''t you want to know how difficult it is for us to locate you? Don''t you want to know our stories?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I already know why you are here. As for the rest, why don''t we¡­"

    He had suddenly snuffed out the candle lights with the profound strength of his fingers and the personal room had suddenly be dark all of a sudden.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    There were soft gasps from Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing as they had a feeling that Ji Yuan was about to do something funny to them.

    Indeed, he had for he had suddenly thrown them into his bed with a soft chuckle.

    Even though they were inplete darkness but they were all cultivators and could easily ''see'' one another with their divine senses.

    However, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were only pretended to make a few feeble moves before they were ''overpowered'' by Ji Yuan as he soon be a beast of a man by groping at their bodies.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he overpowered them below him, "I really miss the two of you so much. Tonight, is the perfect chance for us to be together once again!"

    Yu Jingjing giggled below Ji Yuan, "Is this what you have been thinking? Why don''t you answer us honestly first. Howe these five divine consorts seem to be so docile in front of you? Did you have a rtionship with them?"

    Yang Mi was also saying and she was shyly saying, "They are actually quite mean to us, you know. They refuse to allow us to carry you when you are unconscious even though we have exined to them that we know you personally. I bet that you have a rtionship with them."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "No? Do I look like the sort of a man in your eyes?"

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing said aloud at the same time, "Yes!!!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, the night is long and we should talk about something romantic, am I right to say so?"

    Without waiting for them to protest further, Ji Yuan had alreadyunched himself at them and these two maidens were giggling and even screaming softly.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly straightened himself to say, "Erm, the two of you don''t mind loosening your profound fastening first, do you? I am a little weak after my duel with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. Hahaha¡­"

    "Lame!"

    "He wants to bang us but he doesn''t have the strength to do so¡­"

    "What a weak cultivator¡­"

    "Disappointing¡­"

    "He isn''t a man¡­"

    "He needs our help¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But to the sudden delight of Ji Yuan, the profound fastening on their spirit clothing had suddenly loosened and he was jumping eagerly on them again. "I aming! Hahaha¡­"

    There were more screams from Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing as Ji Yuan swam in their midst as he eagerly took off his own clothing as well.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were watching eagerly while they were in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

 Chapter 859 Little JieEr, We Need To Talk! (1)

    ?

    The news that the Goddess Ai Tina had returned to the Greater Spirit Realm had spread in the entire Snowy Pavilion City as well as throughout the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    Also, in Snowy Pavilion City, Ji Yuan was a name that was spoken with great awe now; there were numerous maidens that had also be fanmanics of Ji Yuan and moreover he was also such a beautiful looking man.

    Due to Ji Yuan''s sudden renown, there were tens thousands of spiritas that had wanted toe to visit Snowy Pavilion City from the other city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    It got so bad that at first only 1 thousand visitors would be allowed into Snowy Pavilion City but eventually even that, was too much and this resulted in a total ban.

    Even the tavern that Ji Yuan was in, was crowded with thousands daily, all hoping to catch a glimpse of their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, among the visitors that were banned were Little Princess and Feng Minyue that hade to warn him of Number 1.

    But because of this new ban rule, they were turned back even before they could evene close to Snowy Pavilion City.

    Even when they imed to be friends of Ji Yuan, it was useless to argue with the spiritas guards because all the visitors had also imed to be a ''good friend'' of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Their only constion was that they had heard that Ji Yuan had fought with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily a couple of days ago and he had survived the fight. And that even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had left.

    With no permit to enter Snowy Pavilion City, Little Princess and Feng Minyue were both forced to leave the vicinity of Snowy Pavilion City; they did not even have the chance to even approach the city-state and was stopped at the outer vicinity of the smaller city-states that were part of Snowy Pavilion City''s city-states alliance.

    As for Mo Bei and Qin Shuang, they had found a spirit cultivator in the city-state of Ishtar that could help to remove the ve mark that was in Maiden Qin Shuang''s soul core.

    When Maiden Qin Shuang had finished her treatment, they had heard that Ji Yuan had ''defeated'' Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and hence, they had decided to stay put in the city-state of Ishtar.

    As for Bai Qianfeng, she was in a simr situation as Mo Bei and Qin Shuang; she did not know where Ji Yuan was. Not until everyone in her city-state were all talking about a Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan that had the blessings of the Great Oracle and he had defeated a powerful sword cultivator called Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao; even the Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei could not defeat her.

    Bai Qianfeng was astonished at this news, "This is impossible. This must be a rumor. He has actually defeated number 1?"

    She had immediately thought of visiting Snowy Pavilion City to check this rumor out. Since she could fly, the ban to Snowy Pavilion City did not really apply to her.

    But she had a little problem; her city-state was a little too far¡­

    -

    -

    -

    It had taken Ji Yuan a couple of days to get his body into shape; the life force vitality that he had expended was really huge this time and he was lucky that he was not bedridden for several days more.

    It was his sheer willpower that was causing this great miracle.

    But it was only because Ji Yuan was too delighted to see Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing again. And also because he was too thick face to be seen bedridden for too long by his 3 maidens.

    During the next few days, he managed to rotate his time between Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and his senior sister Chu Lixue.

    And he had made sure that his misdeed with Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were not discovered by his senior sister Chu Lixue.

    But this was trickier than he had thought.

    Chu Lixuemented to Ji Yuan, "That''s weird. Why are Maiden Yu and my sister in your room the whole night? Do you really have so much to chat with the two of them?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan answered with a straight face, "It is impossible for us to have a threesome in my personal room. If that is what you are thinking then I am afraid my senior sister is highly mistaken."

    Chu Lixue even asked Yang Mi, "Sister, seriously. If it is just the first night that you and Maiden Yu are with Ji Yuan in his room, I actually do not mind but for several nights? This is highly unusual."

    Yang Mi lied with a flushed look, "Ji Yuan is just showing us some of the spirit clothing that he has brought for us. It is really hard for us to choose. So beside chatting with him, I am also chatting with Jingjing too."

    Ji Yuan naturally knows that his senior sister was suspicious so he also tried to spend more nights with her.

    Even Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were saying to him, "We can guess what you have been doing in your senior sister''s personal room, judging by the way that you have your dirty fingers on us."

    But Ji Yuan would protest, "My senior sister is sacred and I only have respect for her. How can I even considerying my dirty fingers on her? You know that I have to cultivate most of the time, do you? And after so much of my strength on the two of you, do I even have the strength to do such a thing to my senior sister? And you know my senior sister''s personality..."

    It was only a half-truth; it was true that Ji Yuan needed to cultivate and rest alot but it was mostly during the day when the 4 divine consorts were around.

    It was because his biggest headaches actuallye from the 4 divine consorts, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    It was not so much from Xu Yifei since she had to meditate for some time due to her injuries and she needed rest.

    These 4 divine consorts would visit him day and night.

    Even Xiao Muhan was asking him to solve his issues with the divine consorts first, especially with Divine Consort Sun Dingjun since he was her champion; it was because he was having a hard time with Sun Dingjun''s bad mood when she was unhappy that she could not talk with Ji Yuan.

    As for Destiny, Ji Yuan thought it was weird that she was not telling him about her background anymore?

    Or maybe she was waiting for him to fully recover first?

    But anyway, on the 7th day after his duel with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, it so happened that only Ding Jie''Er was alone in the tavern and that the other 3 divine consorts were not around.

    On this day, Ji Yuan saw that she was wearing thin straps across her budding bosoms and there was two pieces of golden chains between her crotch and butt again. Otherwise, she just had other loose pieces of straps and chains around her.

    When he saw her, he was hardened immediately and he was muttering weakly; today isn''t a good day...

    So he said to her, "Erm Little Jie''Er, may we have a moment to talk? In private?"

    Ding Jie''Er was absolutely delighted, "I am always free for my Yuan Beluga. We can go to your personal room."

    Ji Yuan needed a private ce to talk with her, especially away from Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju who seemed to be quite close nowadays and they were constantly gossiping about him.

    They could not chat in his personal room or else he would be in trouble if Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi or Chu Lixue knows about this.

    So he quickly whispered to Ding Jie''Er, "Let''s go to your personal room in the tavern instead."

    There was a flushed look on Ding Jie''Er before she shyly nodded.

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved that she had nodded but he was also anxious about how she may have feltter; it was because today he would reject herpletely in the face.

 Chapter 860 Little JieEr, We Need To Talk! (2)

    ?

    Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er looked absolutely delighted as she took Ji Yuan to her personal room.

    "Wait here for us," she ordered her female followers. "I am going for a personal chat with my Yuan Beluga. Maybe it won''t be a short one but don''t disturb us."

    It was only then that Ji Yuan discovered this was actually a mistake to go to Little Jie''Er room; it was because Ding Jie''Er was not keeping this low profile at all and she seemed to be telling everyone about it.

    He was not surprised that when he had exited Little Jie''Er room, even Xiao Muhan would know about this and maybe even his senior sister the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi would also hear about it.

    But he had to suck his thumb because he needed to reject all the 4 divine consorts in a brutal way, starting with Little Jie''Er.

    He really did not want these 4 affectionate maidens to be the sacrificial pawns of his trial.

    Against the big and affectionate eyes of Ding Jie''Er that could melt any man''s heart, Ji Yuan knows that he had to act fast...

    But as soon as Ji Yuan was in the inside of Ding Jie''Er personal room, she had leaned to his body and rubbed against him. "Yuan Beluga, you are feeling better now?"

    Ji Yuan pulled her off him andughed, "I am alright now. I am still far from my full strength though."

    Although profound strength could be regained through cultivation and profound pills, the loss of life force vitality could only be restored by natural methods. He wasn''t lying when he said this.

    Little Jie''Er smiled to him, "I hope that Yuan Beluga can speedily recover your body. It is because the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower will be starting in 5 more days'' time."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "It will be starting so soon?"

    He calcted that he had been in the Spirit Divine Realm for almost 33 days now.

    Little Jie''Er sighed, "Maybe we have forgotten to tell you this but the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower is a trial thatsted for 30 days. It isn''t an easy trial at all and a champion can die inside too. That is why before you enter the spiritas tower, you have to sign a life and death contract first. Maybe it is best that Yuan Beluga do not join in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower."

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was also delighted, "If this is a trial, then is there any rewards inside the trial?"

    Little Jie''Er answered him with a smile, "Inside the Wondend of the Spiritas Tower, naturally you can keep any rewards that you can find. After all, this is an immortal wondend so the rewards are rich¡­"

    Then she solemnly warned Ji Yuan, "But it is also a dangerous ce, full of primeval beasts and even god beasts of the Greater Spirit Realm. Because is so dangerous, the divine consorts are not allowed to partake directly but has to rely on their capable champions to ovee the trials of the spiritas tower."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I am not afraid of the dangers. I am a cultivator. If I don''t enter this trial to find my fortuitous encounters then I can''t improve upon my cultivation. And this ce looks exciting."

    "So, what are the criteria topleting it?" He asked eagerly.

    Little Jie''Er shook her head as she softly spoke, "I do not know yet. It changes every 500 years. We have to wait till the day of the trial opening of the spiritas tower in order to know what the great games are about."

    Then she smiled, "But the winning champions will get high honors from aiding the divine consorts to win and they will be known as the heroes of the spiritas. I am sure Yuan Beluga will get high honors from this trial. Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is so lucky to have you as her champion."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ Spiritas Hero, did you say? Now I am worried that if this ''Great Spiritas Hero'' doesn''t even win, then I don''t even deserve my title of Great Spiritas Hero. This will really be a p to my face if I do not win."

    "There will be 6 winning champions and not one," Little Jie''Er smiled. "And the chances of Yuan Beluga winning are quite high."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "No one can be certain in a trial. I will definitely join the trial to try for my fortuitous fortune but there is something that I want to talk with you, Little Jie''Er. And it is serious?"

    Little Jie''Er had suddenly lowered her eyes and Ji Yuan could see the flushes in her countenance.

    JI Yuan looked startled and was even looking a little bitter; No, Little Jie''Er. I am afraid that you may have misunderstood. I am not proposing to you or anything simr. I am going to break off with you¡­

    He decided to harden his heart and said the awful word, "Little Jie''Er, actually I¡­"

    All of a sudden Little Jie''Er had tiptoed to him and she was kissing him as she grabbed herself around his neck.

    Ji Yuan could feel the sweetness of her lips and also the closeness of her body leaning against him, especially her almost bared bosoms.

    He almost lost his bnce so he had to wrap his hand around her waist too and he could feel the softness of her delicious curves.

    And he could not help but lowered his hand a little and he was even fondling her butts¡­

    But the thing was, he found himself kissing Little Jie''Er passionately and the two of them were even exchanging their wet tongues with their kisses.

    After a long, long passionate kiss, Little Jie''Er finally gasped softly to say to him. "Little Beluga, I know now what is in your heart and I am willing too."

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to p himself and he began to harden his heart to say bitterly, "Actually I want to tell my Little Jie''Er that I have only 35 days or so in the Spirit Divine Realm and after that, I have to return to my own world. Erm, we can never be together. I didn''t want to hurt you. There is no future in our rtionship. We are from two different worlds."

    Little Jie''Er appeared to be shocked and all of a sudden there were bleary tears in her eyes, "Yuan Beluga, you don''t want your Little Jie''Er anymore? Then why did you ept my kiss?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had suddenly remembered the stupid spiritas custom of kissing¡­

 Chapter 861 Ding Jieâ€™Er And Destiny

    ?

    Ji Yuan had indeed kissed Little Jie''Er quite passionately and he had no excuse for doing so.

    He looked a little stunned as he awkwardly looked at the bleary Little Jie''Er¡­

    Even Xiang Li was saying awkwardly in his soul sea: Big Brother, I think that you are in hot soup. Very hot soup.

    Fairy Anyang shook her head: Not just hot soup but very deep shit. Try wriggling it out yourself. We arepletely helpless to help you now¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly said to Little Jie''Er and he tried to keep as much of a straight face as possible, "Little Jie''Er, this is the custom of my celestial race to kiss someone farewell in this manner."

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Ding Jie''Er looked astonished, "This is your custom?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said added, just in case she would check with Xiao Muhan or the others from his world. "This is a local custom of my Five Heavens Peak."

    Then he tried to emphasis, "Even though I like you but it is impossible for us to be together. I don''t want to hurt you and that is why I have to be honest with you, Little Jie''Er¡­"

    Then Ji Yuan sighed heavily like a great poet, even though he was really a great poet. "Your smiles haveforted my endless torment nights and it pains me to know that we can never be together. Our meeting is just as brief as a candle me and when the night is over, the me of the candle will also be extinguished¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er was sobbing when she had heard Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, you love me so much. I didn''t realize this. You are so noble in your love and so kind to your Little Jie''Er¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her, "Now that you know why we cannot be together, I hope that you can take this well. But I''ll never forget about you, Little Jie''Er. As long as I live, you will always have a ce in my tormented heart. And I will think of you day and night¡­"

    Anyang turned weakly to Xiang Li: Do you think our lord is really overdoing it?

    Xiang Li was sobbing too: This is so touching¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Our lord is not saying this to you, Xiang Li¡­ you got it all wrong.

    Ji Yuan sighed woefully, "Farewell Little Jie''Er, may we be a couple in our next life¡­"

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, what he had told Little Jie''Er was heard by Destiny and Destiny knows of his misdeeds every single night.

    After Ji Yuan was gone from Ding Jie''Er personal room, Little Jie''Er was crumbled to the ground in woeful tears.

    Ji Yuan had to rejected her because they were in two different worlds and this pained her heart.

    All of a sudden there was a sudden knock on her door and this startled Ding Jie''Er.

    Through her defensive arrays, she was startled that it was actually the Great Oracle that was outside.

    She quickly dried her tears before unbinding the profound force in her door but her beautiful eyes were still fluffy.

    "Come in."

    Destiny walked in with a wry smile and with her signature long ck rod, "Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er, I havee to look specifically for you."

    Ding Jie''Er respectfully said, "Great Oracle, I am willing to heed your divine instructions."

    Destiny smiled, "It seems that you are troubled by the matters of the heart. Do you need my aid?"

    Ding Jie''Er stammered, "How did¡­ the Great Oracle¡­ knows?"

    Actually, it did not need a genius to tell.

    Destiny smiled wryly, "Do you want to wait for your next life to be with Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan? If so, this will be such a pain."

    Ding Jie''Er stammered weakly, "You even¡­ know about this?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Destiny chuckled softly, "I know everything. I am the Great Oracle after all. There is nothing under the heavens that I do not know."

    Ding Jie''Er began to kneel down on the ground, "If the Great Oracle is willing to help me, then Little Jie''Er is willing to be your ve forever!"

    This was not easily said by Ding Jie''Er and she meant it with her heart.

    Destiny raised her long ck rod mysteriously, "But if I help you, this will affect the great bnce and this may not be favorable toward me in the future. Also, I have nock of ves if I want to."

    She was actually crapping in front of Ding Jie''Er.

    The reason why she was not that eager to help the spiritas race was because she was from the chaos race and she was also lofty great goddess ruler in the Dark Entropy Realm. The very reason why she was in the Spirit Divine Realm was because this was the home world of the True Devil God and she was here to visit it when the Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly shown up.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had told her, "Since you like to give divinations so much, then you shall be a Great Oracle then in this Spirit Divine Realm."

    Since then, she had been misunderstood as a great goddess of the spiritas race and there were numerous divine lords and divine consorts that had visited her Secret Oracle Gate.

    Destiny was clearly unhappy about this new role that she had because she was a chaos race and spreading chaos was part of her cultivation.

    To her, there was nothing wrong in trying to fool the Great Beyond Goddess and moreover the Great Beyond Goddess has been looking for the reincarnation of the True Devil God to kill himpletely.

    So how could she allow this to happen?

    But she was d now.

    By ident, she had discovered that Ji Yuan is the True Devil God now and till now, she was secretly giggling in her heart like a young maiden.

    She had never thought that in this life time, she could find the True Devil God.

    At first, she was worried that the True Devil God may be a monk of a man and uninterested in the maidens.

    She was quite relieved that Ji Yuan had been secretly bedding Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Chu Lixue for the past few days. This showed that he was not a monk.

    But this was still not enough for her; she had to make him as lecherous as possible.

    These 3 maidens were celestial maidens that Ji Yuan knows. So he may have gone through some life and death experiences with them for quite some time in order to form a bond together.

    When she noted that Ji Yuan was not interested in any of the 5 divine consorts who were all beautiful in their own ways, she was now worried that the True Devil God was not lecherous enough.

    And this was really bad for her.

    As Ding Jie''Er kneeled on the ground to plead for the Great Oracle to help her, she was quite startled to see that the Great Oracle appeared to be in her own thoughts. So, she asked timidly, "Great Oracle?"

    Destiny was suddenly smiling wry as she looked at Ding Jie''Er, "It isn''t impossible for me to help you. But you have to listen to me in the future and always support me. Is it possible for you to do?"

    She had gone one big round to basically tell Ding Jie''Er that she was her ve and yet, she sounded like Ding Jie''Er was not her ve.

    This reasoning may soundplex to the others but it was actually really simple to her; she wanted to maintain a good reputation in front of the True Devil God Ji Yuan by maintaining that Ding Jie''Er has begged for her help and she is grateful for her help instead of using the ugly word of ''ve''.

    After all, she is a great goddess and face is important to her in front of the True Devil God.

    Ding Jie''Er looked a little perplexed but she quickly said with pleading tears, "If the Great Oracle helps me to be with Yuan Beluga, I am willing to listen to whatever the Great Oracle asks of me."

    Destiny was now smiling now as she began to set in motion her next part of her ''nefarious'' n.

 Chapter 862 Ji Yuan And Tang Manni

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had left Ding Jie''Er personal room, the female followers of Ding Jie''Er was quite startled that it had been so swift and they did not even have the time to gossip over it through their transmission.

    A delighted Ji Yuan was now thinking of looking for Xiao Muhan to go into the streets for a stroll when he spotted the Divine Consort Tang Manni entering the tavern.

    Therefore, he decided to create some pains now than more painster by approaching Tang Manni.

    Tang Manni was actually in the tavern to look for Ji Yuan but she was quite crestfallen that Master Ji Yuan seemed to be avoiding her nowadays.

    So when Ji Yuan had suddenly approached her on his ord, she was delighted.

    Her follower, Spirit Concubine Fay chuckled to her in quiet. "Your divine consort, hees your way."

    And several of Tang Manni''s female followers were also giggling softly as they looked at the beautiful Ji Yuaning their way.

    When Ji Yuan saw the extremely form of Tang Manni and her scantily spirit clothing, he began to mutter to himself: This is too sinful...

    His golden eyes were already roaming on her jade white breasts and below her waist..

    Xiang Li knew what Ji Yuan was looking at and she giggled shyly: Big Brother, you need to bang her Sister Manni!

    Ji Yuan: ...

    But he forced himself to have a straight face as he smiled to Tang Manni, "Erm, Divine Consort Tang Manni, do you have a little time for a quick chat with me? Maybe we can go to your personal room?"

    There was a flush in Tang Manni''s countenance as she gasped with disbelief, "To my personal room?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Yeah. It is more private in this way."

    In any normal circumstances, talking this way to Tang Manni or any other of the divine consorts would instantly invite a tight p or a beating for such a request.

    Tang Manni was smiling as she agreed instantly, "Let''s go!"

    Without waiting for Ji Yuan to say a word more, she had caught his hand to pull along with her.

    Ji Yuan saw that her beautiful countenance was full of happiness and delight.

    In a few more minutes, he would shatter the blissful look in her with his ''hurtful'' words.

    As he followed Tang Manni, they had suddenly bumped into Destiny and she seemed to be going in the direction of Ding Jie''Er personal room.

    Tang Manni immediately greeted Destiny, "Greetings to the Great Oracle."

    Ji Yuan had also raised his hand up to bow respectfully, "Great Oracle."

    Destiny acknowledged by smiling faintly to Tang Manni and Ji Yuan before she turned to Tang Manni to whisper, "If you need any help from me, you can look for me."

    Tang Manni was startled that the Great Oracle was suddenly so helpful and she thought that the Great Oracle was now favoring her, so she was even more delighted. "Manni thanks the Great Oracle first."

    Destiny simply smiled at her reply and walked slowly away.

    Ji Yuan was in no mood to appreciate Destiny''s beautiful swaying white jade butts in front of him as his intention was very clear; he was going to hurt Tang Manni today and this was not a good feeling that he had actually desired. But it was better to have some pains first than more painster.

    Soon, he was in Tang Mann''s personal room.

    Tang Manni was smiling blissfully as she asked him, "Master Ji Yuan, you want to say something to me?"

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly; indeed, he was and he was going to destroy her blissful day today and forever. This was to be his most powerful cultivation sword art that he was about to unleash, something that could shake the heavens and the earth, and even rocked the pirs of the entire Celestial Realm.

    But he quickly corrected himself; this was the Spirit Divine Realm after all. So this should rock the pirs of the Spirit Divine Realm instead.

    When Tang Manni saw Ji Yuan was still silence, she asked again with an alluring blissful smile. "Yes, Master Ji Yuan?"

    The reason why Ji Yuan had hesitated was because Tang Manni was too extremely beautiful, especially when she was looking so blissful and it seemed like she was the only radiance light in the entire room.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was like the evil darkness in this room.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Tang Manni, I don''t want ever to see you again!

    I don''t love you at all!

    You can''tpare to my maidens!

    You dress too shamelessly!

    You are not celestial!

    It is impossible for us to be together!

    I can only stay here for 35 days more before I need to pack up and leave!

    I am only toying with your feelings!

    Fairy Anyang asked Ji Yuan: My lord, have you thought of something to say yet? You have not opened your mouth yet.

    Ji Yuan answered weakly: I''ve forgotten that Divine Consort Tang Manni is a crybaby. I need to think of a way to say my hurtful words without making her weep tearfully.

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly: Good luck, my lord¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered to Tang Manni and he was stammering for words, "Actually, Manni¡­ I¡­"

    Tang Manni lowered her head with a flustered look, "I know. You like my Sister Yifei. I don''t mind at all¡­ and didn''t you give your approval that day too?"

    She was referring to that day when her Sister Xu Yifei had told her that they could like and love Ji Yuan together. (See Chapter 776).

    He had suddenly remembered how he was supposed tofort Tang Manni in the presence of her Sister Xu Yifei that had tried to help him.

    Even if he could reject Tang Manni this day, how could he bear the thought of rejecting Xu Yifei next?

    After all, he had seen her naked body twice over¡­

    "Yes?" Tang Manni was curious why Ji Yuan did not say anything after such a long time.

    Ji Yuan finally said weakly and he hadpletely lost the strong words that he had intended to say, "Manni¡­ erm¡­ I can only stay in this ce for 35 days¡­ after that, we have to¡­ separate¡­"

    Tang Manni looked up to him with a lovelorn look and she was gasping, "Does Master Ji Yuan wants toplete our nuptial ties today then? In this room?"

    Then she was smiling shyly, "Maybe I can even carry Master Ji Yuan''s seeds¡­ I''ve heard from Dongfang Xin that the celestials are quite fertilepared to the male spiritas¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he almost flipped over immediately.

    He wanted to correct her as well too: Actually the higher our cultivation, the harder it is for the celestials to have any children. Most high level celestials actually don''t have any children at all¡­

    Tang Manni had a look of beautiful flush as she looked at Ji Yuan, "I love you, Master Ji Yuan."

    She was too simply too mesmerizing in her blissful flushes; Ji Yuan had remembered how he had hurt her previously and had even tried to look for her to apologize to her.

    "I love you too, Manni¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen; what did he just say?!

    Tang Manni was suddenly in his embrace and she was rubbing her head on his firm chest, "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

 Chapter 863 Ji Yuans Solution

    ?

    Any normal man would want to bang Divine Consort Tang Manni for she was an extreme great beauty and Ji Yuan was not an exception.

    But he could not because he is going to leave this ce soon in 35 days.

    Even if Tang Manni is willing, he is not willing.

    After all, he is a gentleman of the sword and he is never a lecherous cultivator that toys with the maidens.

    Xiang Li whispered to Anyang: I think Big Brother uses his phrase of even if she is willing, he is not willing too many times but he is always willing.

    Anyang was also secret nodding and she was face-palming.

    But even they had no idea how Ji Yuan was going to respond to Tang Manni because he was too unpredictable even for them.

    Ji Yuan continued to have beautiful Tang Manni in his embrace and he was struggling with his inner demons and his own arousal.

    But eventually he pushed aside all his previous thoughts and with a firm conviction of his cultivation dao, he pulled her slightly from him and said firmly. "Manni, you are a most beautiful maiden and I¡­ have feelings for you too. But I am a cultivator on a trial here and I have many maidens in my harem too. Also there is a maiden of my heart that is waiting for me¡­"

    "I don''t mind!" Tang Manni had suddenly interrupted him with her extremely beautiful countenance and even her lovely voice was firm. "My sister has told me that this maiden name is Jiajia, am I right? You have called her out several times when you are unconscious. Also, Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Xiao Muhan have also told me in the past several days that you have quite a few beautiful maidens following you. A heroic man like Master Ji Yuan surely have many maidens that also like you. But I don''t mind at all¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled: He got betrayed by Xiao Muhan?! Xiao Muhan, you got nothing better to do than gossiping about me? Is it? Should I tell your harem that you have been looking at Maiden Flower Ju instead?

    But he wanted to bang his head because of this firm conviction that was just spoken by Tang Manni.

    Ji Yuan decided to try a new tactics as he said with a heavy sigh, "As you know that I am joining the Spiritas Tower as a champion for your sister. And I just talked to Little Jie''Er. This ce is a most dangerous ce and I may not survive the trial there¡­."

    Tang Manni interrupted quietly, "You can choose not to go. It is alright."

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "If I don''t go then I''ll lose my fortuitous encounter in this ce and I can''t be considered to be a true cultivator. Then my future potential will be wasted¡­"

    Xiang Li pointed out to Anyang: Big Brother copied thest sentence from a cultivation story. It actually did not matter to him because his future potential is zero.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was of course not paying any attention to Xiang Li or he would vomit blood immediately.

    He sighed heavily as he patted Tang Manni, "I may die inside the Spiritas Tower. If I die, then won''t you be a widow? Also, I can''t stay here for too long too and there are only slightly more than 35 days left. If I die, you will regret following me. But if I did not die and I have left you then I will be a heartless man like the others. No, I can''t allow this to happen to you."

    "I don''t care for all these anymore as long as I can be with Master Ji Yuan," Tang Manni''s swelling tears began to form; it was because she had been crying in secret for the past several nights.

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that her eyes had turned bleary and this was what he had been most afraid of.

    So he quickly said, "But I promise to give you and the rest of the divine consorts a proper ounting after the trial of the Spiritas Tower. You still have 35 days to change your mind."

    This ounting was, in fact his farewell to all of them.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Tang Manni said quietly, "I won''t change my mind about this¡­"

    But Ji Yuan interrupted her gently, "Wait for me after the trial of the Spiritas Tower. It is all I can say. Alright?"

    He had a sudden n and he suddenly remembered that his senior sister could make an avatar doll. So he intended to make an avatar doll of himself and to fake his own death inside the Spiritas Tower.

    He was sure with his manly charms, his senior sister would not be able to reject this little request from him and moreover, he was also trying to reject the number of her love rivals.

    Ji Yuan patted Tang Manni and repeated again, "Alright?"

    But when he saw the confusions in her eyes, he added further. "If I don''t die, then I shall take you away too."

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Tang Manni had a sudden blissful look and she was nodding nonstop. "Alright, Master Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan was thinking bitterly to himself: She didn''t even consider how the heck am I supposed to take her away from this ce? The female spiritas here are all simpletons?

    But he did not think any further on this because he was going to set his grandiose schemes in motion soon; he is going to fake his death to solve this problem once and for all.

    -

    -

    -

    Meanwhile in Ding Jie''Er personal room, Destiny had taken out a red ring and floated it in front of Ding Jie''Er. "Take this ring first but don''t wear it first. If you want to be with the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan then this ring will be your only salvation."

    Ding Jie''Er was startled as she eagerly epted this red ring and she could not help but gasped in wonder at it. "I thank the Great Oracle for your kindness¡­"

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Destiny was also paying attention to his conversations with Tang Manni through the skull ring that he was wearing.

    And even more unknown to Ji Yuan, Destiny had also heard his secret conversation with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao that very night and she knows that he was going to fight with the Great Demon God and he may not survive.

    Destiny had naturally known who the Great Demon God was; he was one of the 3 true rulers of the Demonic Deste Realm and also a fearsome immortal god.

    In normal circumstances, she would never have though of offending this Great Demon God because there existed only a small disparity between them and she has long heard of the fearsome profound power of his third eye.

    But this time, she has already decided to step in into this mess because of who Ji Yuan really is.

 Chapter 864 The Brutality Reality Of The Spiritas Tower

    ?

    After finding a perfect excuse to reject all the divine consorts, Ji Yuan managed to gather all the 4 divine consorts this very day to talk to them when Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun had also visited the tavern.

    Xu Yifei was still in close cultivation and hence, Ji Yuan did not have the chance to talk to her yet.

    But luckily, he did not or else he would be full of guilt in front of her.

    He grinned at Ding Jie''Er, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun while saying to them at the same time. "After the end of the Spiritas Tower, I will give you all an ounting. But for now, I have to focus for the trials of the Spiritas Tower so that I won''t die inside there and won''t be able to give all of you any ounting."

    His real n was of course for him to ''die'' inside the Spiritas Tower.

    Then they would grieve for him and slowly, they would forget about him.

    This was a brilliant idea, and he apuded himself for devising such a brilliant n.

    He purposely said, "Therefore the 4 of you must also focus on the Spiritas Tower too. I''ll be d for you if you are able toe out tops against the other 36 divine consorts of the other city-states."

    Because he was talking with the divine consorts on the first floor of the tavern, Xiao Muhan, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Chu Lixue were also able to hear him since they were there as well.

    Xiao Muhan thought that today Ji Yuan was acting a little weird.

    Even Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were wondering what his ''ountings'' were since he had been so vague with it.

    But there seemed to be a triumphant look in his golden eyes when he had talked about it.

    Yang Mi whispered shyly to Yu Jingjing and Chu Lixue who were sitting next to her, "I think Ji Yuan is going to take them all as his consorts after the trial at the spiritas tower has ended. That is why he looks so happy about it."

    Yu Jingjing nodded slowly, "I think so as well."

    Chu Lixue disyed her divine smile, "Is it even surprising?"

    Although she was smiling but she was quite sarcastic in her heart.

    Yang Mi giggled softly, "Actually I don''t mind at all. Especially when Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. She looks so friendly and we even have a nice chat together a few days ago too."

    "Yes, she is the friendly one. Divine Consort Tang Manni is also quite friendly." Yu Jingjing was forced to admit.

    Chu Lixue muttered weakly, "I wish my divine consort is that friendly¡­"

    All 4 of the divine consorts were all looking at Ji Yuan with great delight and Ji Yuan sounded like he had good news for all of them.

    They were all looking delightful as they crowded around Ji Yuan.

    At this moment Divine Consort Dongfang Xin spoke up, ''This is great news I think for all of us."

    She was smiling shyly and was even flushing, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, actually we want to tell you that we can''te to visit you anymore because we have to prepare for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower."

    "That''s right." Sun Dingjun was sighing woefully, "Almost the entire popce of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad will be watching the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower for the entire month and we have to prepare the best champions that we got to the grand council of the senates."

    Tang Manni was also nodding, "My Sister Yifei will soon exit her seclusion to brief you on this. By right, each divine consort is allowed to send 20 champions of their choice to the Great Games of Spiritas Tower. But it can be lesser. I have my 20 champions now but sister does not have. She may look for more¡­"

    As she said that, she had looked in the direction of Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi.

    But she was soon smiling, "But if these two maidens are precious to you, it is better that they do not go. Because like you have said, it is a most dangerous undertaking."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled, "A most dangerous undertaking?"

    Ding Jie''Er smiled, "Although it is a most dangerous undertaking but the champions that can survive the great undertakings of the Spirit Tower will all be heroes, even if they are celestials. We didn''t want to tell you this at the very start because we are afraid that this may be discouraging to Yuan Beluga. But now, we know that Yuan Beluga is going to take part in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower for our sake. We are so happy¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked a little stunned.

    Wait a minute.

    This isn''t part of my n to partake in a most dangerous undertaking?

    Dongfang Xin was sighing heavily now, "The survival rate in the Spiritas Tower is only 20%..."

    Ji Yuan was stunned.

    What?! Only 20%?!

    What the heck?!

    Did he just sign his death warrant or something?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    This isn''t part of my n¡­

    Tang Manni looked affectionately at Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan is indeed a true hero. He is willing to partake in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower to be a hero of our Snowy Pavilion City. If Master Ji Yuan survives this then I can sure my people will not oppose for all of us to be attached to him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    From wanting to faking my death to a real death sentence?

    "Erm¡­ actually¡­"

    "This settles this then!" Sun Dingjun had suddenly interrupted him with a woeful look but also a look of great adtion. "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan really knows what are in our hearts."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Actually, he wanted to say which pervert nned for the Spiritas Tower to have only a survival rate of 20%?

    This rate was even worse than the final trial rates of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!

    Fairy Anyang corrected Ji Yuan, "Actually the Great Valha Hall has a much lower rate than 5% and it is a SS Trial. This is also a SS Trial and 20% survival rate is considered to be extremely high."

    Sun Dingjun shyly looked at Ji Yuan and she was flustered with a beautiful glowing look, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, I wish you great sess in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. Even knowing that your golden talisman cannot be used inside the Spiritas Tower, you are still so determined to join this trial. We are truly impressed by your heroism."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes¡­

    Actually, I don''t know that my golden talisman cannot be used inside the Spiritas Tower because no one has ever told me¡­

    Ding Jie''Er was now giggling softly to the other 3 divine consorts, "It seems that a heavy weight has been lifted from our hearts now¡­"

    Dongfang Xin nodded thankfully, "We should go now and prepare for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower."

    Then she turned to look up at Ji Yuan, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, please take care of yourself. Don''t die please¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I won''t die¡­"

    But he had actually wanted to ask if he could quit the trial of the Spiritas Tower?

    And his golden eyes were looking at his senior sister Chu Lixue who appeared to be nonchntly with the 20% survival rate.

    But for Xiao Muhan who was standing next to Maiden Flower Ju, he had broken into a cold sweat.

    Maiden Flower Ju asked him softly, "Are you sure that you still want to join in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower?"

    Xiao Muhan said with a thick face, "Of course I am still joining. I am a true man after all. I am just afraid that Ji Yuan dares not join in the Spiritas Tower and I will be there to watch over him."

    "But the two of you are likely to be in separate teams," Maiden Flower Ju pointed it out to him.

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Xiao Muhan felt his legs growing weak¡­

    And he was protesting weakly in his heart: I am merely a golden saint¡­

    2. There are some light moments before the brutal realities of the Spiritas Tower started to hit the readers.

 Chapter 865 Senior Sister, Listen To My Perfect Plan!

    ?

    Ji Yuan urgently needed the help of his Senior Sister Chu Lixue as well as her advice.

    As soon as he had the opportunity to be alone with the Smiling Divine Maiden, he had quickly grabbed her to him and attempting to pull her into his personal room.

    Chu Lixue gasped softly, "Don''t! Not tonight. They are already suspicious now¡­ do you really think that they are so gullible?"

    She was naturally referring to her Sister Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing.

    But Ji Yuan had suddenly pulled her waist close to him and he was kissing her passionately on her lips, "Senior sister, I need your help for real¡­ this is serious business."

    This broke Chu Lixue''s resistance and she found herself being pulled into Ji Yuan''s personal room.

    Ji Yuan was soon kissing her passionately as he grabbed her intimately to his body before pushing her down onto his bed.

    Chu Lixue gasped softly and there was a beautiful flush on her divine countenance.

    She wanted to push him away but her beautiful jade legs had gone soft and there was even a numbness in her that caused her unable to use her profound strength when Ji Yuan was kissing her passionately.

    Ji Yuan''s two hands were already feeling her exposed bosoms and squeezing them tightly and he was trying to remove the silken straps to her tits.

    Chu Lixue struggled in bed with him and Ji Yuan was furiously moving his hands down her waist, between the slit in between her thighs and he was trying to insert inside with his fingers

    She had suddenly moaned at his touches and she could feel the lewdness water within her that was about to burst so she pped Ji Yuan all of a sudden, "Is this what you mean by your serious business? You''re so flirtatious."

    Ji Yuan sobered up a little and he looked a little sheepish, "I''ve forgotten. Hahaha¡­"

    It was the truth; as soon as he had pulled his senior sister into his personal room, it looked like business as usual and he had forgotten why he had pulled her inside his personal room.

    Ji Yuan quickly stated his purpose, "Senior sister, I''m sure that you have heard what the divine consorts have said, am I right? There are only 20% chance of surviving in the trial. Are you sure that you want to partake in the trial of the spiritas tower?"

    Chu Lixue said nonchntly as she smiled, "Why not? But surely you are not asking me here to ask me about this right? Because you are so secretive. Stop beating around the bushes and tell me what you want from me."

    Xiang Li offered to suggest for Ji Yuan: as she giggled Big Brother, tell your senior sister that you want to bang her.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shut up, Xiang Li¡­

    Then he quickly said to Chu Lixue, "Senior sister, I got a perfect way to make all the divine consorts to give up on me and I need your help. I remember that you can make an avatar doll. I am thinking of faking my own death with a fake doll of myself. Can you help me? I am willing to pay you for your cultivation costs. Just tell me what you need and I shall try my utmost to gather them."

    Chu Lixue rolled her golden eyes before she smiled faintly, "What if I say no to you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Senior sister, you are not helping me? I can''t cope with so many of them."

    Chu Lixue smiled weakly, "It isn''t because I don''t want to help you. But I need at least 3 months to prepare for it and it will be toote. Only my Great Mistress Yun Chi and my Senior Sister Qianfeng are able to create an avatar in less time, after all, they are true immortals. Also¡­"

    She had suddenly knocked Ji Yuan gently on his forehead, "Do you think that my avatar doll can fight like you do? Everyone will surely know that it is a fake, especially when the doll can die in just 1 hit."

    Ji Yuan pointed out by trying to reason, "This isn''t right. Yun Chi''s avatar can definitely fight. Her avatar has even injured me in the past¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue had suddenly raised her leg to kick Ji Yuan on his chest, "My great mistress is an immortal god! And she is half-step to a divinity! How can a lowly seventh cultivation realm like myself bepared to the cultivation profound art of my great mistress? Or even Bai Qianfeng?"

    "Crap!" Ji Yuan muttered, "Then I need to look for Yun Chi or Bai Qianfeng for help to make my perfect n works."

    Chu Lixue hummed coldly, "Then you go and look for them. I am afraid that your senior sister is unable to help you anymore! You can go and die all by yourself."

    She was just about to get up when Ji Yuan had suddenly caught her waist and butt, "Actually senior sister, don''t go yet. I still need your help in other matters."

    Chu Lixue was about to ask what it was when Ji Yuan had suddenly pushed her down onto the bed and he had disyed a bad grin, "Senior sister, I need you tonight. Haha¡­"

    He was feeling quite hot today, having embraced the two beautiful maidens Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni but did nothing offensive to them.

    And this internal fire of his was being suppressed by him.

    Now that his senior sister was in his personal room, would he spare her so easily?

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue merely smiled, "I am not going to loosen my profound binds on my clothing for you. Do you think that I am your harlot and you can have me anytime¡­"

    But before she could finish, Ji Yuan had turned into a beast of a man and he was already onto his senior sister, pressing himself upon her and preparing to ravage her without a care in the entire world.

    He chuckled, "Senior sister, you can scream aloud but in here, no one can hear you scream. Hahaha¡­ and tonight I am going to fill you to the brim and I want you to experience what is meant to be in the Nine Clouds¡­ Hahaha¡­."

    -

    -

    -

    Along the corridor, two spiritas females were chatting quietly.

    One of the two female spiritas maidens asked curiously, "Does Master Ji Yuan knows that we are doing maintenance for the spirit arrays in his room? He has gone in too early tonight."

    The another one began to smile, "We can go in to notify Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden there were loud screamsing from Chu Lixue and the evilughter from Ji Yuan in his personal room that shook the entire tavern.

    The same female spiritas maiden muttered weakly, having ceased her smiles. "Maybe we can do our maintenance a littleter instead¡­"

    When Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju had heard the loud screams from Chu Lixue and Ji Yuan, they were stunned but notpletely surprised.

    Yang Mi murmured weakly, "My sister has lost her chastity to Ji Yuan too¡­"

    Xiao Muhan had also heard the loudmotions between Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue while he was with Maiden Flower Ju.

    He muttered weakly to Maiden Flower Ju, "Do you think we should go in and save Maiden Chu Lixue instead?"

 Chapter 866 JY, Are You Having Fun Last Night?

    ?

    The next day, the Divine Smiling Maiden had to bid Ji Yuan ast farewell as she had to be prepared for the uing trial of the Spiritas Tower.

    Before she left, she whispered to Ji Yuan. "Consider this to be a little reward to encourage you in the Spiritas Tower. But I shall not lose to you! So don''t die in there, silly!"

    Then she had left.

    Ji Yuan was in high spirits when he had walked down the stairs of the tavern and he had thought of looking for Xiao Muhan to ask him to reconsider about going to the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower since he was terribly weak in fighting.

    The so call ''Great Games'' of the Spiritas Tower was actually the ''Great Trials'' of the Spiritas Tower; it just that he did not link them together at the very start.

    Now it was going to be interesting.

    This would mean that he would get a trial reward...

    He was still grinning delightfully from his ''fights'' with his Senior Sister Chu Lixuest night and he could remember how he had ravaged his senior sister and she was screaming nonstop for him to stop.

    This was a new experience for him as he tried to ''vite'' his senior sister forcefully even though this was all yacting.

    He was able to prove how manly he was to her with his nonstop masculine physique and to hear the divine voice of his senior sister screaming for help was golden to him. Moreover, his senior sister was also the most beautiful maiden in Snowy Pavilion City and since that day in the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel, she was the poster girl for almost all the hot blood spiritas men in the city-state.

    While she was screaming, he was shouting lewdly almost all the time the entire night and he was like the beast of a man.

    He was not the only ones that were delighted byst night; Xiang Li and Anyang were all greatly flustered as they secretly watched the scene as well.

    As he walked down, he noticed that many of the female spiritas were all flushing as they looked at him.

    And Ji Yuan began to grin at them, thinking that they were all so shy in the presence of their great spiritas hero.

    He did not know that hismotions with his Senior Sister Chu Lixue had created quite argemotion among the many spiritas females and quite a few of them all had wet dreamsst night, even though the female spiritas did not have that kind of an urge and were more innocent when regarding this.

    Even Destiny was not spared from his lewdness and she was too awkward toe out of her personal room.

    While there was an anti-sound spirit array in her personal room so she should not have heard Ji Yuan but she could actually hear all the lewd words by Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue, even their arousing whispers through the skull ring that she had forced upon Ji Yuan.

    One may have thought that even a great goddess like Destiny would be immune to such low level depravity but it was not as Ji Yuan was the object of her fascination and her heart demon.

    When Ji Yuan had got down to the first floor of the tavern, he spotted Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Xiao Muhan and Maiden Flower Ju whispering among themselves.

    Ji Yuan immediately stepped forward to greet them since he was looking for Xiao Muhan anyway.

    "Haha! Brother Muhan, you are here! I am trying to find you to ask you to reconsider going to the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. It is a most dangerous ce. I''m sure that you have also heard about itst night, am I right?"

    Xiao Muhan weakly looked at Ji Yuan, "I insist on going to the Spiritas Tower. You don''t have to stop me, Brother Ji Yuan. My decision is final¡­"

    He had to appear as manly as possible in front of Maiden Flower Ju because Ji Yuan''s lewdness had also affected himst night and he had an affair for the first time in Maiden Flower Ju''s personal room.

    No one could stand Ji Yuan''s lewdness and Chu Lixue''s arousal screams the entire night unless they had locked themselves in cultivation like the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    In short, basically almost all the female spiritas followers of Xu Yifei know what Ji Yuan had been doing the entire night since he had retired too early.

    Yang Mi slowly said to Ji Yuan her face was quite flushed, "Did you enjoy it with my sisterst night?"

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately as he said with a straight line, "Enjoy?! That is a torture! As you all know, I have a hidden sword energy injury that only a sword saintess like my senior sister is able to help me purge it. I think it must be the Yang Invincible Body Arts that have caused it. It must be all my old man''s fault! I know I shouldn''t have mixed up too many cultivation profound arts and should just focus on one. As you all know, each time, a cultivator tries to learn a new cultivation profound art, we also need to amalgamate it into our existing cultivations or else it will have severe dire consequences on us!"

    With one shot, he had spoken like a true cultivation master!

    Except that none of the 4 actually believed in him.

    Xiao Muhan, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing said weakly to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan. Yang Mi is asking you how was your night with your senior sister. You are not answering her at all!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "In what way am I not answering my beloved Yang Mi? I am always so honest with my answers¡­"

    When he had said that, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Xiao Muhan and even Maiden Flower Ju had all disyed a look of disbelief on their countenances that were difficult to hide.

    Yang Mi shyly lowered her head and said with great difficulty, "There is no anti-sound spirit array in your personal roomst night¡­ we have all heard you and my sisterst night, loud and clear¡­ we know what the two of you have been doing the entire night¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He almost flipped over when he had heard her: Crap!!! No anti-sound barrier?! What the heck?!

    Yu Jingjing added weakly, "Not only did the 4 of us have heard you but the entire tavern seems to have heard you as well."

    Maiden Flower Ju corrected almost immediately, "Except for our Great Divine Consort, the rest of us all know what you have been doingst night."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    His first thought now was that his senior sister would kill him if she heard of this.

    So he weakly said, "Can we don''t tell my senior sister about this? I''ll do anything for all of you. Hahaha¡­"

 Chapter 867 Ji Yuan And Xu Yifei

    ?

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had just ended her short seclusion and the first thing that she asked Maiden Flower Ju and the others were, "Where is Master Ji Yuan?"

    But when she had asked about Master Ji Yuan, Maiden Flower Ju and the other female spiritas all had rosy flushes on them as they still remembered how lewd Ji Yuan was that very night.

    It was as though Ji Yuan had transformed into a depraved divine lord that very night as he said all sorts of lewd words to the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    It was so unspeakable that they could find no words to describe what Ji Yuan had lewdly but it was enough to turn them all on.

    "Senior sister, you may seem not to like it but you actually love it¡­"

    "I am going to force copted with you¡­"

    "Senior sister, your body is so soft and sensual¡­"

    "I wanna hear you scream aloud, the louder and lewder the better¡­"

    "Even if you beg me to stop, I won''t stop¡­"

    "I can do it nonstop whole night¡­"

    And many more¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju weakly said, "Master Ji Yuan is in his personal room and he says that he will be doing some short cultivation to regain his strength¡­"

    "Good. I''m going to see him now." Xu Yifei smiled.

    "Mistress wait!" Maiden Flower Ju panicky said, "Why don''t you wait at the meeting room? Let me go and summon him instead."

    Xu Yifei smiled, "No need. I will go and look for him personally."

    Maiden Flower Ju and the other female spiritas were all gasping with fright but they did not know what to say.

    If their great divine consort entered Master Ji Yuan''s room and did note out then it would mean that something may have happened to their mistress.

    They could all clearly remember that this was not the first time that their mistress had been alone with Master Ji Yuan¡­

    Maiden Flower Ju was now panicky looking at the other female followers and they were all imagining the same thing; that Master Ji Yuan had indeed copted with their mistress or else why should their mistress kisses Master Ji Yuan in public?

    They were suddenly recalling how lewd Master Ji Yuan was and they were all a little wet¡­

    Xu Yifei had entered Ji Yuan''s personal room, "Master Ji Yuan, I have some specifical matters to look for you."

    Ji Yuan was also d to see Xu Yifei; he had been holed up in his personal room for almost a day now and it was mostly due to awkwardness.

    He was even too ashamed to look at Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing in the face now, having exposed his bestial side in front of everyone.

    Yang Mi quietly said, "You have screwed my sister¡­ my old man won''t be too happy if he knows."

    "So that''s what you''ve been doing every now and then with Maiden Chu Lixue." Yu Jingjing said with a hurtful expression.

    What they did not tell Ji Yuan why they were so displeased with him was that he has been such a gentleman with them but he is such a beast with Chu Lixue. Is it because he loves Chu Lixue more than them?

    But Ji Yuan had thought that they were displeased with him for some other reasons and they were avoiding him now.

    It was wild for a single night but awkward for an eternity.

    Even Xiao Muhan was shaking his head as he departed for the vi of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and before he left, he was muttering. "I don''t know you at all, Ji Yuan. You are such a disgrace to the celestials¡­"

    The only person that did not know about his ugly side was Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and that was why he was d to see her.

    "Your Great divine Consort," Ji Yuan quickly greeted her with a delightful look. "I''m so d to see you¡­"

    Xu Yifei sighed softly, "Master Ji Yuan, I hope that you can call me Yifei. After all, we are more than friends now, right?"

    Ji Yuan was almost paralyzed from her enticing voice and slight disy; he had suddenly remembered how he had kissed her in public and hold her. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But he could not reciprocate her affections because he would be leaving this Spirit Divine Realm in no time and he would leave behind several broken hearts.

    But he tried to act casually about this and said, "Yifei, I''ll give you a proper ounting after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. I need to talk to you about this Spiritas Tower and it seems that everyone is now talking about this."

    "I''vee to talk to you about the Spiritas Tower as well," Xu Yifei sighed softly and her expressions looked a little mncholy. "Master Ji Yuan, I didn''t want to lie to you. There won''t be plenty of survivors for the Spiritas Tower and the chances¡­"

    "And the chances are as low as 20%." Ji Yuan interrupted with a grin, "I''ve heard about this from the other divine consorts while you are still in seclusion. But I''ll still be joining the Spiritas Tower."

    Xu Yifei asked weakly, "Why? It is so dangerous and you are already our Great Spiritas Hero. Do you know how powerful the primeval spirit beasts are inside the Spiritas Tower? If you are unlucky, then you may even encounter something like the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha again."

    Ji Yuan suddenly grabbed her shoulders and eximed like a true skirt-chaser, "Yifei. For your sake, I must join the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. It is to forge a future for the two of us."

    Xu Yifei''s heart immediately melted down in front of Ji Yuan as she repeated emotionally, "It is¡­ to forge a future¡­ for the two of us¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s words were sheer nonsense since what he was thinking and what Xu Yifei was thinking were diametrically opposed.

    But he had to pacify her first or else he would not be able to get away without hurting her.

    And he did not want to hurt Xu Yifei.

    After all, they''d been through a lot in such a short period of time.

    Xu Yifei looked up with her enticing eyes that seemed to glitter as she smiled with great loveliness to Ji Yuan, "I don''t need any other champions. I just need you as my one and only champion. Just as I will only have you in my heart. Will this suffice for you? I don''t need you to win¡­ just stay alive for my sake¡­ whether you can be a spiritas hero isn''t important in my heart¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he had suddenly embraced the soft Xu Yifei''s tightly, "Yeah, this will do¡­"

    But he was actually saying: Sorry, Yifei¡­

    It seemed to him that he was not a romantic cultivator that Jiajia had wanted him to be¡­

    And he could sniff the heavenly fragrance that was from Xu Yifei¡­

    "Don''t leave me..." Xu Yifei sobbed silently as she rested her head against Ji Yuan''s chest. "I''m afraid... I''ve been having repeated nightmares of you leaving me..."

    Ji Yuan was startled by her words but he quickly responded but in a rather weak voice, "I won''t leave you¡­"

    Xiang Li muttered weakly to Ji Yuan: It is bad to lie to a maiden even if you don''t want her to be hurt by you.

    Anyang nodded: Ipletely agree with Xiang Li on this.

    But Ji Yuan did not seem to hear them.

    Strangely, Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei simply stood there; happy to hold each other for almost two hours, enjoying the lingering warmth and sce that came from one another.

    Destiny who was secretly observing them was startled that Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei would disy such a devotion for one another and she was surprised that yet there were no lusts in their hearts.

    She was in a little dilemma now as she could only spare two red rings; one had already been given to Ding Jie''Er and the other she had the intention to give it to Tang Manni because she was courageous enough to tell Ji Yuan that she loved him and Ji Yuan had replied that he loved her as well.

    The reason why Destiny had not given the red ring to Tang Manni yet was because she had to leave quite hastily for her vi.

    When Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei had finally exited the room to have some spirit foods together, Maiden Flower Ju and the other female spiritas were all thinking that Master Ji Yuan must be copting with their mistress inside for the past 2 hours; it was because they could all see the coyly and flustered glows that were on her enticing face.

    Even Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had thought that Ji Yuan must have screwed with the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei for his Trust Points.

    2. Next chapter, the Spiritas Tower descends!

 Chapter 868 Descend Of The Spiritas Tower

    ?

    The gigantic form of the Spiritas Tower had suddenly descended slowly from above the heavens; it looked like a huge white tower and it upied half of the sky of the Snowy Pavilion City.

    And all around the Spiritas Tower, there were several pirs of golden light that reached all the way up to the heavens.

    12 in fact if it could be counted, each of the golden pir of light representing a portal into the Spiritas Tower and it was lit up from the divine temple of the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    In the past when there were more of the major city-states, there were actually more of these golden pirs of light that could be lit up from the divine temples.

    For the past several days, almost all the divine consorts of the 12 major city-states had beenying down the spirit arrays to activate these golden pirs of light with their profound cultivation.

    In normal circumstances, these divine consorts also have another role as the high priestesses of the Divine Temple of their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina.

    The only exception in Snowy Pavilion City was Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei who had to rest to regain her profound strength; the destruction of her immortal divine shield had caused her a moresting damage it appeared to be and she needed a longer time of recuperation and cultivation rest than even Ji Yuan.

    Even though her immortal divine shield had been destroyed, it was not a permanent destruction as all divine and immortal profound treasures have the ability to regenerate unless its artefact core is permanently destroyed.

    The presence of the Spiritas Tower caused much excitement to resound through the entire city and Ji Yuan was in awe of the sudden appearance of the Spiritas Tower and this descend was quite simr to the awe effect of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    "The Spiritas Tower has finally descended!"

    "Once every 500 years, the Spiritas Tower will descend from the Greater Spirit Realm¡­"

    "Even the golden light from our divine temple is now lit. This means that the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower is starting really soon¡­"

    "Only the divine consorts, their followers and the champions were allowed to step into the divine temples while the rest of us can only watch the Great Games of the Spiritas City from the colosseum¡­"

    "The colosseum can only seat 300 000 spectors and we have so many people from the other smaller city-states in our Snowy Pavilion City these days¡­"

    "The daily tickets are expensive¡­"

    "I don''t want to miss the opening ceremony¡­"

    "I want to see Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan in the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    "Me too, I am a fanmanics of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan as well¡­"

    "I want to watch Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan for the duration of the 30 days of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    "With Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan around, I am sure that this time our Snowy Pavilion City would be tops in the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    "I''ve heard that the Goddess Ai Tina says that this time round the rules of the Spiritas Tower will change?"

    "Yes, I have heard of that too¡­"

    "It is quite sad that the Goddess Ai Tina says that no more divine consorts will be able to ascend through the Spiritas Tower anymore but she will give a differentpensation¡­"

    "I wonder what''s the rewards for the divine consorts and the champions are this time?"

    "I am hyped because this time round the Goddess Ai Tina takes the effort to visit us¡­"

    "The Goddess Ai Tina is the great heroine and also the First Divine Consort of our spiritas race¡­"

    "Snowy Pavilion City is really honored to have the Goddess Ai Tina staying with us for a few days¡­"

    "I''ve heard rumor that another immortal divine lord had visited Snowy Pavilion City and our Goddess Ai Tina has returned to the Greater Spirit Realm with him¡­"

    "That immortal divine lord is probably just a lowly servant of our Goddess Ai Tina! Men are all depraved!"

    "Only the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is a worthy true man and hero!"

    "I''ve heard that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has slept with our Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and Divine Consort Tang Manni¡­"

    "Even the Smiling Divine Maiden, the most beautiful maiden in the city-state isn''t spared from the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Our Great Oracle as well¡­"

    "This only shows how masculine our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan really is¡­"

    All kinds of rumors and gossips had spread through the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad; some were true, some were false but the spiritas were all excited by the descent of the Spiritas Tower that could only be seen once every 500 years in the fertile crescent ins of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    Today Ji Yuan together with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and her entourage had visited the city-state only Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Destiny were also with the entourage but they were mere spectors and could be allowed to watch the Great Trials of the Spiritas Tower from inside the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina rather than from in the Colosseum.

    This was also the day that he would partake as a champion for Xu Yifei inside the Spiritas Tower.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    And he was also the solo champion.

    When he had reached the golden steps of the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina, there were numerous cultivators that were already presented and many of them were the celestial champions.

    Ji Yuan could even spot his Senior Sister Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan and even Yang Baitian, who was a champion of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    He had quickly spotted the divine consorts Dongfang Xin, Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er who were all hastily speeding in great excitement to greet him.

    "Yuan Beluga, you are finally here!" Ding Jie''Er smiled coyly.

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­" Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were all smiling joyous when they saw him.

    Sun Dingjun even added with a flushed look, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, this divine consort is so flush, flush now when I see you. Heehee¡­"

    "Master Ji Yuan, I''ve been waiting so long for you." Tang Manni

    Ji Yuan grinned at them and he was also d to see all of them too as well; even though he did not see them for a mere few days due to the preparations of the Spiritas Tower, he was actually starting to miss all of them.

    "Divine Consorts Manni, Dongfang Xin, Little Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun¡­"

    However as Ji Yuan greeted the 4 divine consorts, he had suddenly noticed that more than half of the champions, mostly celestials and all of them men had a look of hostility when they saw him.

    It was because many of these celestial champions were all lofty figures in the Celestial Realm and they all considered themselves to be on the same par as the Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong.

    Only the lofty and old cultivator Yang Batian who had fought with Ji Yuan previously was convinced of Ji Yuan''s superiority and he had no hostility in his eyes when he looked at him; after all Ji Yuan had also helped him to resolve a cultivation issue that had been blogging him for a long time.

    But for most of the champions, they did not witness Ji Yuan''s feat firsthand, either because they were all men, in close cultivationtely or just in wanton pleasure, they had a look of despise on the young and beautiful looking Ji Yuan simply because he was a young cultivator.

    They had no excuse to look down on his old ragged clothing anymore because Ji Yuan had changed into a better profound toga now.

    They had certainly heard of his exploits in defeating the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But these two exploits were not enough to make them feel impress with Ji Yuan.

    To them, maybe this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was just a weak immortal divine lord from the Greater Spirit Realm.

    After all, they all know that there were two restrictive conditions on immortals when they descended to a lower realm.

    One, they can choose to retain their cultivation realm but they can only stay for a brief moment and they cannot regain their immortal cultivation strength in the normal way until they can get back to their immortal realm.

    Two, they can stay on a much longer time in the lower realm but they have to sacrifice their immortal cultivation realms and have a powerful profound treasure to anchor them in the lower realm; the higher the grade, the better.

    So to them, Ji Yuan was just fighting weak immortals that could not even disy their full cultivation profound strength to the utmost.

    As for Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, they had all thought that she was a weak immortal too and calling herself Number 1 did not mean that she was really Number 1.

    This Ji Yuan just had more luck than them!

    All of these celestial champions had thought that they were Number 1 as well.

    For all they know, this Ji Yuan may even be in cahoot with the Goddess Ai Tina to lose to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao on purpose.

    For all they know, even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and the Goddess Ai Tina may even be in cahoot with Ji Yuan in order to increase his renown.

    After all, this Ji Yuan is a celestial like them and he is just trying to gain his Trust Points from the divine consorts.

    The wily schemes of the celestials are too many and this may all be the evil ploy of this Ji Yuan!

    If they could defeat Ji Yuan or even kill them then their Trust Points would be 100 immediately!

    2. I think for now if you read carefully, there are less of a chance for Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun to be with Ji Yuan.

    3. The next arc will probably be the Great Abyssal Realm; still in the nning stage.

    4. I''m starting to write a new cultivation story when I''m having a blocker. I don''t think it is any R18 since the focus is on a strong heroine. But this may not be mainstay and is for a writingpetition.

 Chapter 869 Entering The Spiritas Tower

    ?

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was now saying to Ji Yuan and she was smiling, "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, we are all waiting for you to start the portal into the Spiritas Tower."

    "Please be very careful, Yuan Beluga." Ding Jie''Er was full of concern in her bright eyes as she murmured softly to Ji Yuan.

    This was not lost on some of her champions because they did not even receive any attention from her.

    "I will, Little Jie''Er." Ji Yuan grinned.

    "Don''t die, Master Ji Yuan¡­" Tang Manni found it necessary to remind him again.

    Ji Yuanughed as he looked at Tang Manni, "I won''t die because I can''t bear to let you cry every night for me."

    When he had said that, Tang Manni looked away shyly.

    But Ji Yuan was actually crossing his fingers and he had the intention to look for his beloved Bai Qianfeng inside the Spiritas Tower to make an avatar doll for him, so that he could fake his own death.

    After all, he had heard from Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing that his beloved Bai Qianfeng was in the Spirit Divine Realm as well.

    Sun Dingjun disyed a rosy look and she looked particrly radiance as she said coyly to Ji Yuan, "Even though I have my team of champions but I am actually supporting you¡­"

    Xiao Muhan who was nearby: ¡­

    He was actually one of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun''s champion¡­

    But he was soon distracted by a spiritas female that was near Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and she was Flower Maiden Ju.

    The two of them had a sudden rtionship that night and Xiao Muhan was eager to prove to her how manly he was.

    Maiden Flower Ju was also secretly looking at him for she had never thought that she would actually like this ugly bearded man¡­

    Ji Yuan was secretly looking in the direction of his Senior Sister Chu Lixue and he was displeased that she was being surrounded by quite a few male champions of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    How dare these men try to green me! Die!

    Xu Yifei had suddenly said to Ji Yuan, "It is time for Master Ji Yuan to enter the arena of the Spiritas Tower. It seems that many of the champions from the other city-states are all inside now. Once you are inside, we will then know the new rules for the Spiritas Tower."

    Tang Manni nodded, "I wonder what has changed this time round?"

    Dongfang Xin was sighing, "I actually have a high hope of ascending to the Greater Spirit Realm this time round. I have quite a few capable champions¡­"

    Then she sighed a little heavier, "I have this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong and he looks like a capable champion. But I have suddenly lost his profound signature and his spirit contract with me is even terminated. I fear that he may be assassinated by the other jealous champions."

    Sun Dingjun giggled softly, "If he can be assassinated then he isn''t a capable champion."

    "I know this Perfect Hero Jiang Guanzhong. He is a scum." Tang Manni frowned when she had recalled how this Jiang Guanzhong had insulted the spirit food of her Sister Xu Yifei''s tavern.

    Ji Yuan could not helpmenting, "This Jiang Guanzhong is definitely a scum."

    The reason why he had said that was because this Jiang Guanzhong had tried to green him, obviously.

    But as he said that, he was also walking toward the shimmering golden portal that had now been opened.

    He turned around to say to the 5 divine consorts, "Don''t worry about me. Watch how I perform inside the Spiritas Tower. I will give all of you a proper ounting after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower is over. This, I''ll promise all of you."

    When he had said that, all 5 of the divine consorts were all looking a little flushed.

    As for Destiny, she looked a little amused but did not say anything.

    She was trying very hard to maintain her reputation and image but she actually wanted to say something to Ji Yuan. But in the end, she did not know what to say to him.

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had turned to looked at her with a chuckle. "I wonder what the Great Oracle has to say about my trip to the Spiritas Tower? Is it for the good or the bad?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Destiny was startled by his question and his sudden look at her that she had quickly said without thinking, "You will meet with plenty of crisis and death will linger around you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All 5 of the divine consorts were all gasping with shock when they had heard the words of the Great Oracle¡­

    Destiny was actually stating the obvious but because she sounded so mysterious in her reply that Ji Yuan was now a little afraid of what he may face inside the Spiritas Tower.

    -

    -

    -

    After Ji Yuan had stepped into the shimming golden portal, he saw that he was with around 70 champions that were all from Snowy Pavilion City in a tform.

    He was quickly joined by the Smiling Divine Maiden and Xiao Muhan who were wondering like him, "Where are we now? Inside the arena? Where are the rest of the champions from the other city-states?"

    Indeed, they were inside the arena now.

    And the 5 divine consorts, their followers, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Destiny were all viewing them from a giant crystal wall in the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina while numerous spiritas were viewing them from inside the Colosseum.

    But as soon as Ji Yuan was inside the arena, many of the champions were now openly staring coldly at Ji Yuan and were even badmouthing him, "So he is that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan? He dares to call himself a Great Spiritas Hero? Has he forgotten who he is already? In front of so many seniors, his face is really quick thick!"

    The reason why they had been so outspoken now was because they were now in another space and as with all battle imageries, they could not be heard elsewhere.

    In short, the 5 divine consorts were not able to hear any of them even though they could see them.

    Without their divine consorts to rein them anymore, the anger of these celestial champions toward Ji Yuan were now exploding to boiling point; either they were envious of Ji Yuan''s good reputation with the divine consorts or they were envious that Ji Yuan was with the Smiling Divine Maiden who had be their Sex Goddess.

    Ji Yuan was not mindful that they were jealous of him but he was mindful that they were looking at his senior sister and he disyed a fight-me-if-you-dare look upon them.

    Now, not all the champions were celestials and there were even some spiritas male and females among them so they did not quite understand why some of the champions were looking at Ji Yuan with such a bitter look even though Ji Yuan had saved their city-state.

    These spiritas champions on the other hand had a look of adoration as they looked in awe of their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    But before a fight could break out between Ji Yuan and the celestial champions, a profound voice neither female or male echoed. "I am the Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower. Wee to the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    The profound voice of the Trial Spirit had seized the attention of everyone instead.

    "There will be a series of 5 trials that you have to ovee in your teams or groups. If you can reach thest qualifying trial then you shall all be rewarded. In between each of the trial, you will be given a short break ofst 1-3 days, depending on the difficulty of the trial¡­"

    "Now for the details of the first trial¡­"

    2. There is actually an alternate story ending in which the 6 Supreme Divine Gods were killed at the end of the trials of the Spiritas Tower. This is actually the first storyboard.

    While this storyboard has the most impact in term of surprise but there are some difficulties in executing the romantic rtionships of the heroines with JY. And also, it may a little too depressing sincee the victors are all going to have a ''sad ending''in the Greater Spiritas Realm till to the veryst. So it is discarded.

    Also, the story still have 2 hidden twists (if u can catch it) and this second storyboard is my final pick instead.

 Chapter 870 Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan

    ?

    The Trial Spirit announced, "Now for the details of the first trial."

    "You will all be randomly seeded into a team of 10 or more. Whether a team has 10 or more, it is a representation of your strength or the team''s strength. It is purely random¡­"

    "And the randomly seeded team will not be among your current group in this arena. It will be across the 12 city-states that are participating. But this arena is your home arena where you will rest and cultivate after the end of every trial¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard the trial spirit, he was excited immediately; this means that he would be meeting his beloved Bai Qianfeng in this trial sooner than he was expecting!

    "¡­for the first trial, there are enough of you to form 75 teams of champions¡­"

    Ji Yuan was stammering inside him now: What?! 75 teams of champions?! What is the possibility of meeting my beloved Qianfeng?

    Xiang Li giggled: I know that my Big Brother''s math sucks. That is 1.3% chance for you.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Xiang Li, your math is the one that is sucks, not mine. Let me ask Anyang instead.

    Anyang replied: My lord, it is 1.33%

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    After hearing Anyang, he weakly said: Well, Anyang''s calction sounds a little right¡­

    He was actually expecting a rate that is better than 13%.

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother is the only MC in the cultivation stories that does not know how to count.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: That''s not true! I am merely distracted by what the trial spirit is going to say! So don''t distract me from the trial''s important message!

    The Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower continued to say, "You will all be taken to the first trial with a randomly seeded team. Thereafter, you have 30 minutes to get to know your team. Please note that it is likely that you will be isted from the other teams for the first trial as the trial grounds are covered arge expanse. Therefore, in order to ovee this trial, you may need the support of your team¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was muttering weakly to Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue, "This means that I can''t choose my team¡­ and this trial may be in istion from the other teams¡­ this is bad¡­"

    Ji Yuan was also muttering weakly, "This means that I can''t be with my senior sister¡­ and the others may green me¡­"

    Chu Lixue stepped on Ji Yuan''s foot as she whispered firmly, "What are you talking about? You should know my heart¡­"

    "But senior sister, you never know the despicable means of these cultivators, do you?" Ji Yuan pointed it out.

    Chu Lixue purposely stepped even harder on his foot, "We are inside the Spiritas Tower where the divine consorts can see us too. So don''t be silly!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I forget¡­"

    The Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower said, "This is the basic rules of the first trial. For the exact rules of the first trial, I''ll be speaking with all the champions once you have been seeded in your team¡­"

    "The next message is for the divine consorts, from the Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    Immediately Ji Yuan and all the other champions were blinking their eyes as they wondered: A message from the Goddess Ai Tina?

    Apparently, the profound voice of the Trial Spirit was the only voice that could be heard from outside the arena.

    All the divine consorts in the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina and the crowds of spectors in the Colosseum were all paying attention to this divine decree that was being sent by their Goddess Ai Tina to the Trial Spirit.

    "In the past, the Spiritas Tower will select 5 winning divine consorts via their champions to be ascended to the Greater Spirit Dream. And there will also be a random pick by the Spiritas Tower for one of the losing divine consorts to be selected to the Greater Spirit Realm¡­"

    "These divine consorts will be able to step into the golden portal of the Divine Temple to receive the Great Blessings of the Great Beyond Goddess in the Greater Spirit Realm and they can ascend to be immortal divine consorts as they join me in the immortal war against the decadent immortal divine lords of the past era ¡­"

    "However, this rule is going to change now. Not because I, the Goddess Ai Tina is dissatisfied with any of the divine consorts from the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad or the other divine consorts from the other territories. In fact, I am really pleased with my short time here in the Spirit Divine Realm, especially with Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Divine Consort Tang Manni and the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    At the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina, Tang Manni was startled that she was being mentioned and there was a bleary look in her eyes; this was a great honor to be mentioned by the Goddess Ai Tina¡­

    "The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is also my personal guard of honor and he should also be honored with the highest regard. Therefore, I am going to make him into our first divine lord in thousands of years¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled: What the heck?! I am a divine lord now?! Is the Goddess Ai Tina plotting against me again?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Almost all the champions presented with Ji Yuan were all looking in his way now; some were full of prides while some others were full of resentments¡­

    "¡­It is the traditional of the Spiritas that the divine consorts are non-contestants. But an exception will be made for our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan instead. As long as he survives the trials of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, he shall be known also as the Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan. Not just any ordinary divine lord but the First Great Divine Lord of your era¡­"

    Ji Yuan was frowning: I know there must be a catch somewhere. So I must survive¡­

    Anyang muttered: This isn''t a catch at all¡­

    Chu Lixue muttered weakly as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan, "Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­ I am beginning to hate this trial now¡­ why must all the good things always go to him¡­"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "I actually didn''t get anything from myst trial, you know and it is a S+ Trial. Haha¡­"

    "Liar!" Like the rest of the maidens, Chu Lixue simply did not believe that Ji Yuan had got nothing from thest trial since this was impossible.

    The Trial Spirit continued to read out the divine decree of the Goddess Ai Tina, "Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan will be allowed to pick a harem ording to the tradition of the divine lords, even another divine consort and as many as he wants¡­"

    When the divine decree was read to this point, many of the noble spiritas were shocked but they were also secretly smiling.

    It was especially so when heard by Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Dongfang Xin and Ding Jie''Er; even though they know that it was against their spiritas traditional for their lord consort to have more than one maiden as consort but they could not help falling in love with Ji Yuan.

    Sun Dingjun was so flustered that she had buried her head into Ding Jie''Er bosoms, "Did you hear that, Little Jie''Er¡­"

    Dongfang Xin''s beautiful eyes were shinning; it was because she had never thought highly of any man except for Ji Yuan. But Ji Yuan had so many better divine consorts like Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and even Little Jie''Er that were more affectionate than her, so she did not think that she had a chance. But today, she finally has a chance¡­

    There was another secret reason why the Goddess Ai Tina had dered so; it was because Achilles would also be taking Tang Li as his second consort today. This was the Goddess Ai Tina way for making up to Tang Li.

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: I sense a catch somewhere¡­

    "¡­ the great war in the Greater Spirit Realm has almost ended and we have purged most of the depraved immortal divine lords. Therefore, that the real reason why we don''t need more divine consorts to join us for the time being. I will like all my divine consorts to lead a long and blissful life in the Spirit Divine Realm and you can fall in love just like anyone else¡­"

    Many of the divine consorts of the Spirit Divine Realm actually did not have a cultivation partner when they had ascended because there were few men that could catch their eyes.

    Either that or the men that could catch their eyes were the heartless celestials that vanished all of a sudden after the end of their trial, causing them to be pregnant with their seeds.

    "¡­although the divine consorts cannot ascend anymore but the way to the Greater Spirit Realm is always opened to you if you can cultivate to the peak of the great divine consort. In the great library of the depraved immortal divine lords, the morepleted spirit cultivation has already been found and I''ll distribute it to my Divine Temples after the end of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    "¡­ the rewards for the Spiritas Tower will also be increased for the champions and the winning 6 divine consorts as a reward of this new change of rule. May the Light of the Great Beyond Goddess be with all of you."

    The Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower paused briefly, "This is the divine decree that is from the Goddess Ai Tina to all of you."

    After another short pause, the Trial Spirit continued. "The first trial will start now¡­"

    Ji Yuan could suddenly see shes of light appearing from the group of champions in the arena; wherever the shes of light struck, the person would then disappear to be taken elsewhere.

    He quickly said to Chu Lixue, "Senior sister, don''t die too¡­"

    Chu Lixue merely smiled, "Don''t jinx your senior sister¡­"

    A light had suddenly struck her and then she was gone too.

    Ji Yuan turned to say to Xiao Muhan, "Anyst words that you want to say to me, Brother Xiao Muhan?"

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "You have better hope that I can have a good team or else my ghost will return to haunt you¡­"

    "There are no ghosts. Hahaha¡­." Ji Yuanughed.

    And then he was struck by the light and had disappeared too.

 Chapter 871 The Start Of The First Trial

    ?

    Ji Yuan soon himself in a hot desert that were surrounded by tall sand dunes and a blue inertia barrier, presuming there to act as a barrier before the trial official starts.

    And there were shades of 9 others as well.

    When his vision had cleared, he was astonished to see Xiao Muhan and his Senior Sister Chu Lixue again.

    "What the heck?!" He was half surprised and pleased at the same time.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he walked in the direction of Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue.

    Xiao Muhan was grinning too as he walked with open arms to greet Ji Yuan once again, thankful to the heavens that he got a good party in Ji Yuan instead of a random one.

    Ji Yuan had also opened his arms but he had walked past Xiao Muhan to greet his senior sister instead, "Haha, senior sister. We have met so fast again¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Chu Lixue smiled weakly, "That''s a short farewell."

    Ji Yuan disyed a soft chuckle, "I''ll be watching over my senior sister. Haha¡­"

    He quickly added, "For any dangers¡­"

    Although he had meant to say instead ''for any men'' in his heart.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue, this was an arrangement that was made by the Goddess Ai Tina for him; in short she had rigged the trial setup.

    "Great Spiritas Ji Yuan, consider this as a small favor that is returned to you. This is also the only thing that I can do for you, whether it is right or wrong, I do not know. However, I can''t affect the exact trial inside as this is determined randomly by the Spiritas Tower. Good luck, Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan."

    Back to Ji Yuan, he was now whispering to Xiang Li: Thank you, Xiang Li. For bringing us together once again!

    Xiang Li: ???

    I didn''t do anything, Big Brother¡­

    Even Anyang was saying: It must be Xiang Li¡­

    Ji Yuan now turned to look at the 7 other champions that were presented with him.

    There were 2 maidens and 5 men among them.

    Ji Yuan saw that only 1 of the maidens and 1 of the men did not have a ck ring so they were not celestials.

    Ji Yuan said to them, "We have 30mins to introduce to one another. Why don''t I start first¡­"

    A celestial male champion with a half ck and white had suddenly stepped forward, "No need. We all know that you are the Great Spiritas Hero and Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan. As for me, I am the ck Dragon Huo Yuantian¡­"

    Ji Yuan raised his hands up to greet him, "Brother ck Dragon Huo Yuantian¡­"

    ck Dragon Huo Yuantian hummed coldly, "I am no brother of yours. The reason why I have stepped forward is because I am more fitting to be a leader than you. You shouldn''t be the one that should start the introduction."

    Then he had swung his ck spear around him before mming it hard on the ground, immediately causing a loud profound shockwave to erupt from where he was!

    His profound shockwave had immediately pronounced his profound strength to be at the peaked great saint cultivation strength!

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "So it is another great saint. You know this Brother Huo Yuantian here, great saints and saintesses are prettymon in our group here. It is not a criterion for taking charge of our team here¡­"

    "Do you mean think that great saints grow like apples on a tree?!" Huo Yuantian thundered loudly. "Who else is a great saint and saintess here? You can speak out!"

    Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, "I am not."

    The female spiritas maiden said coldly to Huo Yuantian, "Spirit Consort Miao Humei here. I don''t practice the human cultivation. I assume that you are referring to the 7th Spirit Realm? Well, I am only at the 6th Spirit Realm. But I don''t see why we can''t appoint Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan as our leader?"

    The male spiritas man said, "Tianya Jiuyou here. I am at the 5th Spirit Realm here. ording to our spiritas tradition, Great Divine Lord Ji Yuan is equivalent to a Great Divine Consort so he has the highest noble rank here. He should be leader."

    Chu Lixue smiled, "I totally agree with that as well. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin and he was thinking: Actually, I didn''t even say I wanna to be the leader of our group here. Is our group even a team in the first ce when we are already quarreling at the start¡­

    The another celestial maiden and three celestial men were all smiling as they looked at Hua Yuantian, "We will nominate Huo Yuantian as our leader."

    Now it was a 5 vs. 5 split for the leadership of the group.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "So shall it be then. Brother Huo Yuantian shall be the leader then."

    Hua Yuantian looked surprised, "You are not contesting for the leadership?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why should I want to be the leader? I don''t even know the nature of this trial yet. If I wrongly lead the group then won''t I get me for my mistake? It is great that we have a leader to lead us. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, Huo Yuantian was suddenly frowning; it was because he had suddenly felt the heavy burden of leadership in this forsaken desert trial.

    Ji Yuan soon learn that the name of the celestial maiden was Yi Ling while the names of the other celestial champions were Ma Huarong, Hu Tao and Zhao Mingyao.

    None of them were champions from the Snowy Pavilion City.

    The Trial Spirit was soon saying when the 30 mins was almost up, "I am supposed that all of you have a leader ready to lead your team. The first trial is rtively simple. All you need to do is simply to lead your team away from the scorching fire of the desert and you will be able to clear this trial¡­"

    "Beware though, it is extremely dangerous for you if you are toe within 100 miles of this scorching fire in the midst of this desert and you will need to need to travel beyond 1000 miles of this desert for your trial to end¡­"

    "¡­ you will all begin at the perimeter of 500 miles of this desert fire and you have 3 days toplete the first trial¡­"

    Then the blue barrier around Ji Yuan''s group was removed and they could all see a scorching fire at the north of their direction.

    Ji Yuan frowned at this trial, "Isn''t this trial a little too simple? All we need to do is to move away the desert fire. We are not blinded to where the desert fire is."

    Huo Yuantian wasughing jovially that the first trial would be this simple, "Count on me everyone!"

    But this made perfect sense to him that the first trial would be an easy one.

    After all, this is only the first trial of five trials and the trial could not allow so many champions to fall at the very beginning or else it would not be entertaining for the spectors that had brought the tickets to watch the heroism of the champions.

    Xiao Muhan asked, "So all we need is to travel 500 miles in 3 days? Then we have better move fast, since we have to cover almost 200 miles a day."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "We are all cultivators and do not require any rest. We can travel day and night. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Trial Spirit said, "For the duration of this trial, there is no night. Now good luck to all the champions and beware of the dangers of the desert."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "No night? That means we have to use our profound aura to protect us from the scorching heatwave and that means we have to drain our profound strength¡­"

    Huo Yuantian hummed coldly as he shed ahead of everyone, out of the waiting area and inside the hot desert, "What are you all waiting for? If you follow my lead, I''ll promise you to lead you out of this desert in less than a day''s time even!"

    When he had said that, many of them including Ji Yuan was smiling.

    Ji Yuan said loudly, "Let''splete this trial in less than a single day then¡­"

    When he had just said that, the ground below Huo Yuantian had disappeared and Huo Yuantian was swallowed up by a monstrous sand monster.

    And he disappeared with a loud bloody scream deep into the sand pits.

    This stunned everyone, including Ji Yuan.

    Xiao Muhan was stammering, "Did we just¡­ lost our leader even before we have started the trial?"

 Chapter 872 First Encounter In The First Trial

    ?

    Ji Yuan immediately turned to his new team to say, more specially to the other 4 celestial champions. "Erm, our new leader has just died. So we need a new leader now. So, which one of you will be our new leader, most preferably able to get us to the end of the trial in less than 1 day?"

    All of a sudden, the 4 celestial champions Ma Huarong, Hu Tao, Zhao Mingyao and Yi Ling were all looking nkly at Ji Yuan.

    Ma Huarong bitterly said, "I think that Brother Ji Yuan should be the new leader instead."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This won''t do at all because I have no interest to being the leader in the first ce. And moreover, I am also not a capable leader that can lead everyone out of this desert in less than 1 day. Haha¡­"

    Hu Tao said bitterly, "We need not finish this trial in less than 1 day since we have 3 days for the trialpletion."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I happen to have no sense of direction as well."

    Everyone: ¡­

    Zhao Mingyao smiled weakly, "We don''t need a good sense of direction from you. All we need to do is to move away from the desert fire that is like a giant pir of fire here. This isn''t hard at all."

    Ji Yuan said frankly to his face, "All you guys is just someone that will take the risk by walking in front, am I right? It isn''t because you need a real leader. What if I refuse all of you?"

    Yi Ling the only celestial maiden beside Chu Lixue pretended to smile coyly, "Great Hero Ji Yuan, I hope that you can please lead us. We need at least a capable leader or a worthy leader to lead us. I hope that you do not decline us anymore. The reason why we have all selected Huo Yuantian as the leader was because we all thought that he has a n to lead us to the next trial. But we didn''t think that he will die so fast."

    Ji Yuan immediately smiled, "Alright then. I shall be the leader of our team then. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue: ¡­

    All the others: ¡­

    Ji Yuan immediately picked another route from where Huo Yuantian had taken and he started walk cautiously.

    Every now and then he would flicker his fingers to st off his sword energy at the ground.

    Needless to say, their progress was really slow.

    And soon enough, Zhao Mingyao, Hu Tao and Ma Huarong were muttering unhappily among themselves that this was really too slow.

    But Ji Yuan did not seem to care for their opinions.

    Even Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue were also feeling that they were moving too cautiously.

    Elsewhere outside the Spiritas Tower, Little Princess and Feng Minyue who were together watching the battle imageries in the colosseum had spotted Ji Yuan and his team.

    Little Princess was shaking her head slowly, "It is a terrible mistake to make Ji Yuan a leader. In terms of slowness, he is number 1."

    Feng Minyue was forced to nod as well, disying a bitter look as she recalled how Ji Yuan had tortured many of the maidens while he was at the lower levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth by inspecting slowly every small detail and ended up wasting everyone''s time.

    Moreover, he was totally shameless and was deaf toints by the maidens that he had been too slow.

    All the maidens had already resolved to themselves never to be led by Ji Yuan if they were trapped in a maze with him.

    Little Princess and Feng Minyue could only shake their heads lightly when they saw that the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan were both with him; the two of you will soon know our torture.

    In fact, from the battle imageries, it did seem that Ji Yuan''s team was the slowest as well as the fastest.

    Slowest because he was moving in a snail pace.

    Fastest because all the rest of the teams had suddenly realized that they were all moving toward the desert fire!

    Even Ji Yuan''s team was feeling that something seemed to be wrong as they moved along.

    Ma Huarong said, "Weird. We seem to be moving to the desert fire now instead of moving further away from it."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue was also saying to Ji Yuan, "This doesn''t look right. We are moving away from the desert fire but why is the desert fire seemed bigger than ever before?"

    Ji Yuan was also feeling a little startled as he peeped at the desert fire by climbing up to a sand dune, "It seems that we are now 450 miles closer to it now."

    Everyone: ¡­

    All of a sudden, a dozen golden skeletons with swords had jumped out of the desert sands and they had surrounded Ji Yuan and his group.

    Ji Yuan was rmed, "Fight! We have intruders!"

    The spiritas male Tianya Jiuyou had taken out a physical talisman and threw it onto a golden skeleton.

    However, his talisman exploded harmlessly onto the golden skeleton and a sword swung quickly cut him into half!

    These golden skeletons all had the profound strength of the 7th cultivation realm so Tianya Jiuyou who were only at the 5th Spirit Realm was not able to resist the attack and got himself killed.

    In just a few short blinks of an eye, the golden skeletons had rampaged through the team, injuring Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei!

    Chu Lixue and Ma Huarong had both destroyed a golden skeleton each with their profound arts and it was apparent that they were the stronger cultivators.

    Ji Yuan raised Xiang Li as he exploded a golden skeleton with his sword stroke before he summoned his 9 divine swords and sent them as flying swords to slice into the remaining golden skeletons, destroying them in the next instant.

    Ji Yuan had single handedly wiped out 10 golden skeletons all in all and his feat stunned Ma Huarong, Hu Tao, Zhao Mingyao and Yi Ling for his flying swords were simply too fast; they had sensed Ji Yuan''s sword intentions all of a sudden and in the next instant, 9 flying divine swords were flying all around and were slicing apart all the golden skeletons!

    And they saw that there were even a half-step emperor and a saint-step divine sword among the 9 flying swords!

    What was more, this Ji Yuan even had an emperor-step divine sword on him!

    All of a sudden, these celestial champions felt a little inferior when they were standing next to him¡­

    Even Spirit Consort Miao Humei was in awe of Ji Yuan since she was now officially the lowest cultivation realm at the 6th Spirit Realm and she appeared to be shaken by the short encounter.

    It was only with the intervention of Ji Yuan that this encounter appeared to be short for these 12 golden skeletons all had the profound strength of 12 great saints and they were not easily beaten.

    Even Ma Huarong who had destroyed one of the golden skeletons, had used all his profound strength and trump cards just to kill one golden skeleton.

    Ji Yuan withdrew his 9 flying divine swords and sighed softly, "We have 1 more dead now and have some injuries."

    Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all injured and they were looking a little weak now under the blistering sun.

    Chu Lixue said to Ji Yuan, "What''s now? At this rate, we may not be able to get out of this desert in time to finish this trial. Worse, we may all even die in this ce once we have encountered a primeval monster."

    Xiao Muhan said weakly as he held onto the wound on his abdominal, "We are also lost in this burning desert too."

    Luckily for him, he was a saint and his wounds had quickly closed but it was still a severe injury as it was dealt by the profound power of the golden skeleton that was on par with a great saint.

    The others were also nodding when Xiao Muhan had said that they were lost.

    Ji Yuan had climbed to the top of sand dune and he was looking at the zing sun and the desert fire for some time without saying a word.

    All of a sudden, he said. "Follow me!"

 Chapter 873 This First Trial Is Too Unusual

    ?

    Ji Yuan had called out to the rest of his faltering group, "Follow me!"

    Chu Lixue was curious as she followed him, "You have a way to get us out of this desert?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Maybe. I have to test it out first."

    Chu Lixue slowly nodded. "This is supposed to be just the first trial and also the easiest one. And we are struck."

    Ji Yuan took a look at the remaining 6 other champions behind them. "Yeah, and we''ve already lost 2 champions in our team."

    Then he started to move in a weird zip zap direction and every now and then, he would flicker his fingers as he fired a sword burst into the sand.

    There were at least 3 times that the sands would suddenly move when Ji Yuan had fired his sword burst with his sword fingers.

    Luckily for them, they were not beneath the sands and were not swallowed up by the primeval monsters that were underneath it.

    Chu Lixue asked him, "I can''t even sense these hidden primeval monsters. How did you even manage to sense them?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I didn''t. While we are on the slopes of these giant sand dunes, we are safe. But not if we are not on the sand dunes. I''m just randomly testing if the ground is solid or not."

    When he had said that, they had suddenly realized when Ji Yuan was walking weirdly and often up the tiring slopes of the sand dunes instead of the ttened ground where they could move on much faster.

    Xiao Muhan muttered, "I see now."

    Even Ma Huarong who was a super cultivator looked impressed when he had heard Ji Yuan even though just a few moments ago, he was about to rebuke Ji Yuan for wasting the time of everyone.

    Two hourster, Ji Yuan went up to the sand dune again and he was grinning as he said to the others. "We are now 600 miles away from the desert fire."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "We are now moving further away from the desert fire. What did you do?"

    The others were all curious as well.

    Ji Yuan said slowly, "It seems that there is a powerful array in this ce thatpletely distorts our concept of space. At first, I thought that we should just follow the sun and we should be away from the desert fire. But I was wrong."

    Then he pointed at their shadows, "I notice that for every 100 steps that we take, the direction of our shadows will be different. This means that the sun that we see above us, isn''t real. Of course, there is no sun. This is the Spiritas Tower. But the direction of our shadows will indicate to us where the exact position of this ''sun'' is¡­"

    "I''ve tested 8 different directions so far and only one direction is the way out. All the other directions will lead us to the desert fire, in varying speed."

    When he had said that, the answer stunned all the others.

    Xiao Muhan stammered, "Isn''t this trial a little too hard? Most of us won''t be able to get out of this desert alive¡­"

    He was not the only one that was thinking the same.

    Yi Ling said weakly, her lovely voice was faltering due to her injuries. "Is this even count as the first trial?"

    Ma Huarong bitterly said, "This sounds more like the final trial¡­"

    The sweet voice of Spirit Consort Miao Humei was stammering too, "Usually the past first trials are way easier. The Spiritas Tower seems to be acting quite strangely¡­ let''s hope that this isn''t what I am thinking."

    Xiao Muhan asked Ji Yuan, "Are you sure you didn''t offend the Goddess Ai Tina or something? Or some other powers?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What do you think then?"

    Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly, "If that is so, then I think we are all screwed."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    -

    -

    -

    In the Divine Temple of the Goddess Ai Tina and the colosseums, many of the divine consorts and the spectors were also looking quite shocked.

    More than 75% of the teams were moving toward the desert fire and the causalities rates were also climbing.

    This was not an easy trial at all!

    Everyone seemed to be asking the same thing.

    "What is going on here?"

    "More than 100 champions have perished in less than 1 day¡­"

    "This high incident rate has never happened before¡­"

    "Many of the teams seem to be heading toward the desert fire where the risks are higher there¡­"

    "The nearer to the desert fire, the more dangerous it will be¡­"

    "Two entire teams have alreadypletely perished¡­"

    At the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City, Xu Yifei and the others were quite relieved to see that Ji Yuan and his team had somewhat moved away from the desert fire.

    Sun Dingjun was muttering weakly, "Ji Yuan''s team has 2 casualties¡­"

    Maiden Flower Ju was bleary when she saw that Xiao Muhan was injured¡­

    Ding Jie''Er had turned to ask Xu Yifei and the other divine consorts, "Why is this trial so hard? There is even a powerful array that can confuse their sense of direction. And there are also terrifying monsters in this desert¡­"

    Dongfang Xin was nodding weakly too, "This trial seems to test everything, whether it is their intellect, fighting skills, arrays and more¡­"

    Tang Manni who had been watching Ji Yuan and his team intensely looked a little relief now that Ji Yuan team had moved away from the desert fire.

    Although she could not hear what Ji Yuan was saying to his team but she noticed that Ji Yuan seemed to have a n and he had been moving weirdly.

    Also, Ji Yuan was able to avoid the dangerous sand monsters under the sands; many of the champions were not so fortunate though.

    However, the trial had not ended yet and she was still nervous about any new dangers that Ji Yuan and his team may yet to encounter.

    The other divine consorts shared her concerns too and they were all looking at the trial imageries nervously.

    The difficulty for this first trial was simply too wicked and too high!

    Xu Yifei was nervously wondering to herself: Did something happen in the Greater Spirit Realm that is causing this to happen?

 Chapter 874 Day 1 Of The First Trial

    ?

    The Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina, Tang Li and the other 4 immortal divine consorts were also observing the trials of the Spiritas Tower that were taking ces for the champions.

    They were all an immortal array that were linked to the Spiritas Tower.

    At the same time, more than 30 immortal divine consorts in the great hall were all grasping with shock at the difficulty of this trial.

    Tang Li said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "Shall we summon Achilles'' help in helping to stabilize these arrays of the Spiritas Tower?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina weakly said, "I am just thinking of a little blood to make the spectors relish a little. I didn''t expect for it to be so much blood¡­"

    Then she smiled bitterly to all the rest of the divine consorts, "Why are you all looking at me like this? This is the first time that I am using the Spiritas Tower. Naturally there may be some small glitches. For this first trial, this is an honest mistake. Do you really think that I want them all dead? This is just a simple trial and all they need to do is to move away from the desert fire, that''s all that they need to do. Surely, they are all not dumb to figure out that they are in a huge spirit array that confuses their directions?"

    Then she could not resist adding a weak reward, "Even that Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan can do it, why not the rest?"

    Tang Li muttered weakly, "I believe the Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    The Goddess Ai Tina raised her voice to say with a soft chuckle, "Since it is already toote to change the trial once it has started, we can do it much better for the next trial. I''ll be a little mindful that most of them are celestial champions and unskilled in the spirit cultivations¡­"

    "¡­ the best thing that I can do now is to restrict the random mobs froming to the desert surface. This will reduce the risks for the teams drastically. But I can''t do a thing for the sand pit monsters so they have to try to avoid them by walking carefully in the desert. As for the deadly desert sand storms that can burn their profound animus, I can also reduce the frequency of the sand storms¡­"

    "¡­ this should be easier now¡­ but I need all your help to help me to stabilize the profound arrays to do so¡­ and to get the correct setting¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    The first day had finally passed for Ji Yuan and his team and they were now 800 miles from the desert center where the pirs of fire were spurting nonstop.

    Ji Yuan was a little relieved that his strategy had actually worked and they had no fatal encounters for the rest of the day.

    The injuries that were sustained by Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were also much better now especially after they had consumed some healing profound pills and there were no further encounters to deteriorate their injuries.

    Luckily for Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling, they were both saint cultivators.

    Ji Yuan learnt that Yi Ling was actually a middle saint cultivator and she was also a medium boundary over Xiao Muhan, so she was actually stronger than him when ites to recovery. And moreover, her injuries were also lighter than Xiao Muhan.

    As for Spirit Consort Miao Humei, even though her injuries were the heaviest at the start and she was also at the weaker 6th Spirit Realm which was the lowest in their team but her deep wounds had already been closed; this was due to her healing talismans.

    Ji Yuan tried to get her to use her healing talismans on Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling but she was forced to decline as she exined that she was actually using physical talismans for her healing and these physical talismans were actually tied to her soul force. Moreover, she had only just 2 left to be used for the duration of the entire trial. Even if she used on Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling, the effect won''t be that fantastic.

    Ji Yuan could see her helpless look; she wanted to help but she could not.

    But hepletely understood this because Spirit Consort Miao Humei looked like a kind maiden. If she helped Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling then she would lose her only life saving measures and moreover she was also a 6th Spirit Realm cultivator; the chances of her getting an injury in the trial was actually much higher than the rest.

    Even in their current team, she was also the weakest cultivator.

    This trial actually had no day or night.

    So even if 1 day had passed, Ji Yuan and his team were still walking slowly around the sand dunes as they tried to find their way out of this burning desert.

    Even though they had no more encounters for quite some time now but their profound strength was being slowly sapped to maintain their profound animus against the burning desert which was hotter than desert that Ji Yuan had been to.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    And moreover, the longer that they were in this desert, the higher was the demand on their profound strength.

    Ji Yuan tried to crack a joke with his senior sister while they were walking together, "You know. It is funny to see my senior sister walking almost naked in the hot desert. But this sight is indeed very beautiful. I bet that many of the spectors are also looking at you right now, senior sister."

    All of a sudden Chu Lixue had a sudden startled as she quickly put on a ck cloak around her.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Why do you need to do that for, senior sister?"

    Chu Lixue weakly said, "You just remind me that my old man may be watching me. He will be extremely angry. You know his temper, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I forget. But maybe he is also a champion?"

    Chu Lixue lowered her voice to smile weakly at him, "What do you think?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "If I were my old man, maybe I just buy a ticket to the colosseum to check which one of us are inside the Spiritas Tower. This is the best way to obtain information of our group. Hahaha¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    In the city-state of Melnibone, in the crowded colosseum where tens of thousands were all watching the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    An old, the White Sword Monarch was with a Spiritas Maiden Xiaotian and he looked angry when he saw that his daughter Chu Lixue was wearing the revealing spiritas clothing and he could even hear many of the spiritas around him eximing how beautiful she was.

    Maiden Xiaotian smiling at him, "That maiden is really so astonishing beautiful. Don''t you think so? Especially the way she parts her legs to walk. Even as a maiden, I am so envious of her elegant posture. I wonder what is her name?"

    She quickly took out a cultivation arena slip that was given to her when she had entered the colosseum, "Hm, she is the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue from Snowy Pavilion City¡­ she is also so blessed to be in the same team as the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. He is so beautiful looking¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch: ¡­

    He had naturally recognized his daughter Chu Lixue and Ji Yuan. And even Xiao Muhan.

    He had also spotted Ling Feiyue, Hua Yunzi, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong inside the Spiritas Tower as well.

    ording to the arena slip that he got, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong represented the city-state of Pandora and they served as champions for the Divine Consort Atnta.

    As for Ling Feiyue and Hua Yunzi, they were representing the city-state of Aiel and they were the champions of the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang.

    Maiden Xiaotian saw that the White Sword Monarch was trembling so she smiled, "What is wrong? You must be so happy to see your disciple Ji Yuan again, am I right?"

    The White Sword Monarch answered bitterly, "This is a decadent world!"

    But when he saw the revealing bosoms and the beautiful look of Maiden Xiaotian looking at him, he immediately calmed down and smiled to her, "I don''t mean you¡­"

 Chapter 875 Day 2 Of The First Trial (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and his team of 7 others continued their hot trek across the burning sands of the desert.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan raised his nose to sniff the air.

    Then he suddenly raised a shout, "Run back one mile from here! Quick!"

    Then he had pulled Chu Lixue''s hands to run along with him.

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "What the big hurry?"

    Ji Yuan shouted to him, "Brother Xiao Muhan, run after me if you still want your life!"

    Xiao Muhan did not hesitate at all as he ran after Ji Yuan in a hurry; it was because in the past, Ji Yuan''s danger sense had saved him several times and this time, it was also not an exception.

    Even though Xiao Muhan appeared to be at logger heads with Ji Yuan but their friendship actually ran deep and they openlypete in many areas. But the most important thing is, he knows that Ji Yuan is a sword saint and he trusts the words of a sword saint when ites to a danger.

    All the others were startled too.

    Yi Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao and Spirit Consort Miao Humei had also broken into a run after Ji Yuan who seemed to be in a hurry; they were astonished that Ji Yuan could actually run so fast in the sandy ground and they were awed by his swiftness movement skill.

    Chu Lixue''s swiftness movement skill was not weak either and she could actually catch up with Ji Yuan. In fact, she seemed to take less steps than him.

    In just 3 blinks of an eye, they had disappeared over the sand dune.

    Zhao Mingyao was astonished that everyone seemed to be following Ji Yuan''s lead even when there were no dangers.

    "Are we cowards?!"

    He had barely muttered this when a burst of red rain began to rain down from the clear sky and a worm hole seemed to have been formed from above.

    This red rain covered arge area and when it rained, it prated through the profound animus of Zhao Mingyao and burning him like a deadly acid.

    Even Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all hit by the red acidic rain and were bored a hole through their flesh by it, suffering a burning and painful damage that threaten to even hurt the bone marrows of their bodies!

    Only Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue werepletely unharmed by the acidic red rain.

    As for Zhao Mingyao, because he had hesitated for a while, he was caught in the midst of the red acidic storm and in mere minutes, he was dissolvedpletely in the desert sands and his death was most horrifying.

    It was quite impossible for a golden celestial to be dissolved in this manner because the density of their bones shared the same hardness as celestium steels, which were the same hardness as a heaven-step precious sword.

    But it could only mean how deadly this red acidic rain had been!

    Everyone was in awe how Ji Yuan could manage to sense the storming even before their divine sense could sense it?

    "How do you know about this?" Chu Lixue had turned to ask Ji Yuan curiously and she looked quite relieved even though the experience had still terrified her.

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "I sniff something funny above us just now. The air around us just now ispletely different as though it is about to rain. Even though I didn''t see the storming but my instinct tells me we should avoid it."

    Chu Lixue frowned, "I didn''t catch a sniff of anything¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ I have sharp nose¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled as she pointed it out for Ji Yuan, even though Chu Lixue could not hear her: My Big Brother really has a sharp nose! He can even sniff Chu Lixue''s panties from 1 mile away!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had heard Xiang Li alright.

    Can you shut up, Xiang Li? And will you stop ruining my good reputation.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: I am ruining Big Brother''s good reputation? Big Brother, you want to say you can sniff Maiden Chu Lixue''s wet panties from even 5 miles away, am I right?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said to her: Stop praising me, Xiang Li¡­

    Even Fairy Anyang was pping her face when she had heard Xiang Li.

    Ji Yuan said to the others, "Let''s take another path. We should avoid the remnants where the red rain is."

    As he said that, he had continued on his way forward again with Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan. And behind him was the Spirit Consort Miao Humei.

    But this time round, even Yi Ling, Hu Tao and Ma Huarong did not dare to walk too far away from him like previously.

    The 3 of them, to be exact, the 4 of them if Zhao Mingyao was included, had felt that they were the superior celestials to Ji Yuan and they had maintained a distance from him.

    In their hearts, they felt that this Ji Yuan could earn the Great Spiritas Hero title simply because of his good lucks and that he must have banged the divine consorts in Snowy Pavilion City.

    Or simply because he was also more cunning in them and had many stratagems under his sleeves to earn a fake good reputation for himself.

    After all, this trial was all about earning the Trust Points of the divine consorts.

    Their team had only 7 remaining now.

    This time round, they did not even dare toin about Ji Yuan''s slowness anymore, so long as long as they could get out of this ce alive.

    Ma Huarong had even called out from behind Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, do you need my help?"

    Hua Tao and Yi Ling stole a nce at each other and thought: This Ma Huarong is really too shameless. He even calls out Brother Ji Yuan this time¡­

    But they quickly caught on the act and they too, was shouting. "Brother Ji Yuan, I can help you too¡­"

    Xiao Muhan rolled his golden eyes to think: Are they trying to tter to Ji Yuan now?

    -

    -

    -

    The Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled weakly to the other divine consorts, "Don''t look at me like this. I have slightly lost control of the profound energies when I was just trying to see where the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is and has identally sent the blood storms in his direction¡­"

    The blood storms were not supposed to be appearing 800 miles from the desert fire and would only appear within 300 miles of the desert fire.

    This was 500 miles too far!

    Tang Li asked weakly, "Maybe we should ask Lord Achilles toe to take a look instead.

    The Goddess Ai Tina frowned to Tang Li and the other divine consorts, "This won''t do. Didn''t we say to him that we can do it on our own already? This will be a p to our faces if we ask him for help. Together we aren''t weak, right?"

    All the immortal divine consorts began to nod lightly, even those immortal divine consorts that were outside the immortal array.

    "If Achilles ask, just tell him that this is all part of our ns to make the trial more interesting than usual."

    Then she said apologetically, "As apensation to all the teams that got attacked by the Blood Storms, I will send them a fortuitous encounter as apensation¡­"

 Chapter 876 Day 2 Of The First Trial (2)

    ?

    When Ji Yuan and his team had crossed over to a sand dune, they were suddenly astonished to see a desert rose that was in the distant horizon.

    The profound animus of this desert rose radiated strongly for 10 miles and it immediately caught the attention of Ji Yuan and his team.

    Chu Lixue immediately gasped with shock, "This desert rose is called the Hundred zing Rose and is at least 100 000 years old. It is a miracle herb that can increase the cultivation strength of the cultivators and is even useful for many profound pills. It can even increase the soul strength of a divine sword and have a chance to upgrade it too. It is extremely valuable. To think that we can encounter this miracle Hundred zing Rose in this ce."

    Spirit Consort Miao Humei was also gasping with shock for she had also recognized it, "I can even be a divine consort with this Hundred zing Rose¡­"

    "We can all divide it and receive its benefits together," Xiao Muhan was grinning dreamily. "With just a little of this Hundred zing Rose, I can even breakthrough to a middle tier saint. We are in luck!"

    Ma Huarong took a look at Hu Tao and Yi Ling before he smiled to Ji Yuan, "This is our lucky fortuitous encounter to be able to chance upon such a really rare find. Let''s pluck this Hundred zing Rose and share it together. What does Brother Ji Yuan think about this?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This isn''t a good idea, right? There may be hidden dangers around this Hundred zing Rose too. Is this Hundred zing Rose really this valuable?"

    When he said that, everyone replied. "Yes!!! It is really this valuable!"

    Xiao Muhan pointed out, "It is worth 10 billion spirit stones at least for a fully intact Hundred zing Rose. Even a small piece of it can cost 1 billion spirit stones easily because you can breakthrough your cultivation realm with it easily."

    "I am a peaked great saint." Ji Yuan frowned, "Do I even need it?"

    Xiao Muhan raised his finger to say, "It is said that this Hundred zing Rose can even increase one''s potential in cultivation. And even though you are a peaked great saint but you have low potential."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I will have low potential?!

    Xiang Li pointed out with a giggle: Big Brother, you are weak in everything except for your sword cultivation.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "It is said that the fresh juices of this Hundred zing Rose can even upgrade a divine sword. However, there is no way for me to verify this as we need a weapon refiner cultivator to tell us if this is possible. But the rumor is that it is entirely possible."

    "The reason why this is called a Hundred zing Rose is because it needs 100 cycles of 1000 years to fully bloom. Although there may be a price tag attached to it but you cannot really find anyone selling it. You probably have to go to the auction house for this." Spirit Consort Miao Humei excitingly added after Chu Lixue.

    Ji Yuan said with a weak hesitation as he could see that everyone in his team all had the intention to pluck it, "Well, is it dangerous to pluck it then?"

    Hu Tao immediately said, "It is usually guarded by a 7th rank beast that requires its profound animus to nourish itself. As far as I know, there are no strong beasts around it as this Hundred zing Rose require 100 000 years to materialize in its surroundings and most profound beasts won''t rely on it to nourish itself."

    Spirit nts all have a maturity cycle and will only physically appear to the naked eyes after their maturity cycle is reached. Unless they mature, it is impossible to see and even impossible to know that they are there.

    Ma Huarong emphasized, "It is a 100 000 spirit herb and it is also an easy pick."

    There were smiles on Yi Ling as she had also stepped in to reason, "This Hundred zing Rose must also bake in the burning sands at extreme temperatures in order to thrive. Its cycle of maturity is definitely more than 100 000 years. The reason why we are able to find it is probably because few cultivators will want to risk their lives in the burning desert to search for something like this."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan nodded and against his better judgement, he said. "Alright then¡­"

    His knowledge of spirit herbs was actually in a cultivation limbo and he had to rely on the others to advise him on this.

    The truth was, Ji Yuan did not really care to pluck the spirit herbs even when he was in the Five Heavens Peak where there is a wondend of spirit nts beneath the deste mists; the weaker in spiritual aura a ce is, the stronger is the deste mists below. This naturally results in plentiful of spirit herbs and profound deste beasts that lived off the profound animus of these spirit nts.

    His main purpose when he ventured down the deste mists was to train himself by fighting the deste profound beasts instead.

    The minute that he agreed to pluck this Hundred zing Rose, Ye Ling, Ma Huarong, Hu Tao, Xiao Muhan and even Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all rushing forward to pluck this Hundred zing Rose.

    Ji Yuan was surprised to see that his Senior Sister Chu Lixue was smiling divinely at him instead.

    "You''re not going to pluck this Hundred zing Rose?"

    Chu Lixue giggled, "I am merely waiting for you to start. That Hundred zing Rose is ten miles ahead of us. I am confident of my swiftness movement skill even in this desert. Why don''t we have a race to see who can pluck this Hundred zing Rose?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually my swiftness speed is number two and I have not met my number 1 in swiftness speed yet. If senior sister wants to beat me, you have better take off your cloak first. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue had a sudden flush on her countenances, "No wonder my old man calls you a little rascal¡­"

    All of a sudden, the desert sand ahead of them had three shades of gigantic horned beetles bursting forth from the sands and the entire ground was even shaking violently.

    It was because these 3 gigantic horned beetles were not only huge but they were all 8th rank primeval monsters!

    Spirit Consort Miao Humei screamed panicky, "8th rank primeval monsters, second ss!"

    "What the heck?!!! 8th rank?!" 3 of them?!" Ji Yuan was in disbelief, "Who says this Hundred zing Rose is guarded by a mere 7th profound beast?!"

    Chu Lixue smiled weakly, "Have it ever ur to you that we are in the Spirit Divine Realm and there are no profound beasts here? And moreover, this is the Spiritas Tower so it is likely that it may be guarded by the more powerful primeval monsters too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Senior sister, why didn''t you say so earlier?"

    Chu Lixue had already unsheathed her divine sword, "That is because I''ve just thought of this. Hurry, we need to save them or some of them may perish very soon¡­"

    Ji Yuan had already sped forward in a hurry.

 Chapter 877 Day 2 Of The First Trial (3)

    ?

    A broken voice seemed to be hissing from nowhere tomand the 3 gigantic horned armored beetles, "Kill¡­ them all¡­"

    The 3 gigantic horned armored beetles rushed through the sandy desert as though it was hard ground and soon they were upon Ma Huarong, Hu Tao, Yi Ling, Xiao Muhan and Spirit Consort Miao Humei.

    These gigantic horned armored beetles were massive, 5 times taller than anyone here and 8 times longer than the tallest person here. Although their profound aura proimed them to be 8th rank monsters but one must know that they easily weighted 200 tons and was far stronger than the profound strength of the strongest cultivator here.

    Xiao Muhan had disyed his half-step divine sword and had unleashed his most powerful sword art together with his martial cultivation profound force on a gigantic horned armored beetle. But no sooner had it struck its thick armor, he was repelled by a powerful inherent force around it and was flung into the slope of the sand dune, crashing with a powerful thud sound.

    The armor of these horned beetle monsters was extremely tough and could even match the quality of a low level divine sword!

    Spirit Consort Miao Humei disyed 2 spirit talismans that burst into blue fireballs on another gigantic horned beetle but it was like tickling it as the fireballs could not even prate through its thick profound aura to hurt it.

    But she had seeded in infuriating it as the same gigantic horned beetle took its anger on Hua Tao, literally ripping him apart with his protruding mandibles, like cutting tofu with a knife.

    Ma Huarong had used all his profound strength onto his heaven-step divine sword to deliver a wavering of powerful profound power that condensed his profound attack into a heaven-defying strike that could certainly maimed even a great saint.

    Against these gigantic monsters, he could only use powerful strikes instead of the colorful and multiple profound strikes.

    Usually, these powerful profound strikes are also the secret epitome profound art of the cultivators, able to shake the heaven and the earth, killing even saint cultivators.

    But the price of using such powerful epitome profound arts is usually taxing to the profound strength of the cultivators.

    So when Ma Huarong delivered his profound strike, the divine sense of everyone could sense the gathering of a huge profound power that was in this one strike as he swung his profound strike into the head of a gigantic horned beetle!

    There was arge thunderous sound as sword and the armored head of the gigantic beetle collided as Ma Huarong delivered a tiny dent onto its thick armored head but he was soon screaming because his sword arm was suddenly severed during the attack!

    Yi Ling panicky sent a profound attack onto the gigantic beetle to distract it from Ma Huarong and she did not even dare toe close to it!

    But she forgot one thing.

    The other gigantic beetle that had flung Xiao Muhan away was upon Ma Huarong in the next instant.

    And also Spirit Consort Miao Humei was never in melee anyway and the closest target was actually Ma Huarong, after Hu Tao was instantly killed.

    Poor Ma Huarong, he tried to flee but his foot got struck in the sand and he was quickly ripped apart into a bloody mess by the 3 gigantic beetle monsters.

    An 8th rank monster is far stronger than any peaked great saint and it is not an exaggeration to say that even 10 peaked great saints may not be able to kill one 8th rank monster easily.

    Moreover, there were 3 in the scene now.

    Chu Lixue had suddenly shed into the scene and she had disyed her Ultra Sword Spirit with her heaven-step divine sword.

    Her movements were also extremely swift for the 3 gigantic horned beetles were firing their mandibles and tenacles all around her, but none of their attacks could even hit her; it was like she could anticipate their attacks.

    She quickly raised her divine sword to make a couple of shes on one gigantic beetle before she flew upward to disy her seraphim spirit animus, increasing the might of her profound power to the 8th cultivation realm before she disyed a beam of profound energy onto it to flung it aside.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan had also arrived at the scene and there was an awkward look on his face; it was because his senior sister''s swiftness movement was actually superior to him in this sandy desert.

    He was heard weakly protesting, "It isn''t fair senior sister. I got weighted down by both fat Xiang Li and Anyang¡­"

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    It was actually not because Xiang Li and Anyang were fat but the more powerful a divine sword, the heavier it is and the more profound strength it takes to wield it.

    But he quickly disyed his two sword spirits and his sword aura too upon reaching the scene.

    Ji Yuan had quickly swung Xiang Li and Anyang as he disyed two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon at point nk at the two gigantic horned beetles as two white res of light exploded next to him.

    In that instant, his sword energies instantly tear apart and destroyed the two monsters!

    Yi Ling, Xiao Muhan and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all stunned; they know that an emperor-step divine sword was powerful but they had never witnessed such a powerful disy of pure sword energies before.

    Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were stunned that Ji Yuan actually got two sword spirits, two emperor-step divine swords and he could even disy the mystical sword aura.

    What was more, he could even instantly kill a 8th rank monster with just a single strike. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    This was too exaggerated!

    At this moment, Chu Lixue had also destroyed thest remaining gigantic beetle monster but it had taken her 5 profound strikes to do so and she did not look please at all whenpared to the kills that were done by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed, "This 8th rank monster is actually weaker than I''ve though. Is it really an 8th rank monster?"

    Everyone: ¡­

    "If these monsters are twice as big then it won''t be easy for me."

    Ji Yuan did not lie; the bigger a profound beast is, the stronger its defense is even though the armor of the profound beast did not improve. Just imagine a ant trying to kill a human instead of another ant. If it is a human size ant then it is impossible for the small ant to win.

    But Ji Yuan was actually not boasting too.

    Just before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he had taken down a powerful metamorphosis 8th rank profound monster with his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. But of course, that was only because Xiang Li had aided him and she had enhanced the sword energies of his profound attack to several times stronger.

    But for such medium size monsters, their profound auras and armors were like paper in front of Ji Yuan''s powerful divine swords and sword energies.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he gazed over at the corpses of Hu Tao and Ma Huarong; he had thought that they were super cultivators that couldst longer than he had imagined. But he did not think that they were so weak when ites to fighting against the profound beasts.

    It seemed to him that they were fighting the cultivators more than the deste profound monsters.

    Xiao Muhan weakly staggered to Ji Yuan, "Luckily you are here with us. Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked, "I think I have cleared the monsters. Why don''t you go and get the Hundred zing Rose?"

    "You are not getting it?" Xiao Muhan asked.

    Ji Yuan snorted, "I''m not interested."

    The eyes of Xiao Muhan and the eyes behind him from Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei immediately brightened as they rushed forward to the Hundred zing Rose.

    Even Chu Lixue was also delightfully with them, leaving Ji Yuan behind to look at the bloody gore leftovers of the battle.

    The Hundred zing Rose was only a small beautiful ruby rose like nt that stood in the middle of the desert.

    But right now, Yi Ling, Xiao Muhan, Spirit Consort Miao Humei and Chu Lixue all had a small problem; no matter how many methods they tried, they simply could not pluck this Hundred zing Rose!

    Even when Chu Lixue used her Ultra Sword Spirit and tried to slice off this spirit nt, an inherent force simply bounced her profound attack harmlessly!

    This caused everyone to be stunned and they were soon looking at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite stunned as he walked over; he could not believe with the Ultra Sword Spirit and the spirit entity of his senior sister; she could not even pluck this spirit nt.

    As Ji Yuan walked over, Chu Lixue said bitterly to him. "It seems that we have underestimate the age of this spirit nt. It is actually over a million year old. We need the help of your divine sword to pluck it."

    Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly too, "Brother Ji Yuan, we need your help on this. Come and help us."

    Chu Lixue smiled, "We know that you are not interested to pluck this but if you can help us, together, we may just be able to pluck it from the ground."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he disyed an unhappy look at everyone, "If I pluck this, then it is mine. I won''t share it."

    Everyone: ¡­

    2. This chapter marked the 1.5m words milestone.

 Chapter 878 Day 2 Of The First Trial (4)

    ?

    "If I pluck this, then it is mine. I won''t share it."

    Ji Yuan''s reply stunned everyone.

    Chu Lixue rolled her eyes but she was not upset; it was because she knew that Ji Yuan simply did not want to pluck it even if he was able to do so.

    So she pretended a smile, "That is perfectly alright with us."

    When she had said that, even Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei was surprised.

    Then Chu Lixue sighed softly, "But how do we know if this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is really a fake super cultivator or a real one? Maybe he can''t even pluck this Hundred zing Rose and that is why he ims he wants it if he can pluck it. The problem is, can he even pluck it in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; he knew that his senior sister was baiting him and he did not want to be baited by her.

    Chu Lixue turned to the others to say, "If Ji Yuan can pluck this Hundred zing Rose, will you allow him to keep it?"

    Xiao Muhan shrugged his shoulders before he grinned, "Of course. Finder keeper."

    Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were both nodding, "He has the right."

    Chu Lixue turned to Ji Yuan to smile divinely at him, "Even if you don''t pluck it, the others thate along this way will also pluck it. Do you want that to actually happen?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "That may be a possibility¡­"

    "But the most important thing is, I will be disappointed with you for not plucking this for yourself because you are not capable enough."

    Ji Yuan frowned to himself: I am not falling for your bait, senior sister¡­

    But he quickly grinned, "Of course I am capable. Of course, I can pluck this Hundred zing Rose."

    "Can you? Really?" Chu Lixue gave Ji Yuan a doubtful look.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course I am able to!"

    He quickly shouted, "Give away to me!"

    "Don''t end up destroy it," Chu Lixue giggled.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes¡­

    But he quicklyughed, "Even if this is a 10 million year old spirit nt, I can still pluck it."

    He rubbed his hands as he raised Xiang Li high above him and he had disyed his Ultra Sword Spirit, "Everyone step back behind me! I am going to disy my miracle sword art now!"

    "Miracle sword art?!" Yi Ling, the Spirit Consort Miao Humei and Xiao Muhan were looking quite astonished.

    Xiao Muhan had a sudden realization, "You don''t mean your grand cross, right? You can''t use that. It will destroy the spirit nt¡­"

    "You have a miracle sword art?" Yi Ling was in disbelief.

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he raised all his profound strength into his sword arm before he shouted loudly, "Sacred Sword Pir!"

    A streak of white light had shed from Ji Yuan because his divine sword had shed forth like a white streak of re and in the next blink of an eye, the stem of the Hundred zing Rose was cut into half!

    And Ji Yuan immediately shed forward with a grin as he caught hold of the Hundred zing Rose.

    The profound power of this sword art was extremely powerful and condensed; it was indeed a miracle sword art.

    Moreover, it was more powerful than the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that Ji Yuan had just used by 3 times.

    Yi Ling, Xiao Muhan and Spirit Consort Miao Humei had suddenly realized that killing the 8th rank monster earlier was a piece of cake for Ji Yuan and they were beginning to believe that his battle with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong was actually much more difficult than they believed to be.

    However, miracle sword arts or any miracle profound art required the cultivator to raise their profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm in order to use it. It may even require the use of a powerful profound array to use it or even consume the true essence of a cultivator just to use it.

    But it was obvious to them that Ji Yuan had only disyed his profound strength to only the 7th cultivation realm and he was not even breathless from its use. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue muttered coldly but she was also smiling coyly, "Show off¡­"

    In the past, it was true but Ji Yuan now had the use of an emperor-step sword and also an ultra sword spirit. Therefore, he needed not require so much profound strength to use the Sacred Sword Pir anymore.

    It must note that the Sacred Sword Pir was 3 times weaker than his grand cross though but it was only because his grand cross was too powerful and destructive that Ji Yuan could not really use his grand cross too many times. And also his grand cross was actually evolved from the use of two Sacred Sword Pir for close melee rather as a projectile profound attack.

    The Sacred Sword Pir can actually be used for melee but the profound power was so great that it will actually take Ji Yuan more profound strength to suppress it so that he would not injure himself. That was why he has to release it.

    For Ji Yuan, releasing his divine sword in this manner is not an issue since divine swords can easily be recalled within range of their masters. So it actually did not make too much of a difference to him.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he turned back and at the same time his Xiang Li was already back to his hand, "See! This is too easy! Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were all smiling weakly; it was easy for Ji Yuan to say this to them but it was not easy for them to aplish since theyck even a celestial-step or better divine sword nor did they have a miracle profound art to back their profound power.

    Chu Lixue had a hidden divine sword to her waist and she had a chance to pluck this spirit nt but at this moment, she did not want to disy her more powerful divine sword as this was her trump card.

    That was the reason why she could still smile so divinely and coyly at Ji Yuan.

    She wanted Ji Yuan to pluck it because she did not believe that Ji Yuan would dare to refuse her request to have it. After all, she now belonged to him.

    Ji Yuan said to the broken stem of the Hundred zing Rose, "I didn''t cut youpletely from your roots. In another 100 000 years, you can regrow again. As for your flower, I must now keep it¡­"

    When he had said that, he was about to throw the Hundred zing Rose to his spatial ring when he had suddenly heard a broken voice that said to him in his soul sea, "Mas¡­ master¡­ don''t put me in your spatial ring¡­ or I will die¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled for he had recognized the broken voice to be the voice that told the gigantic horned beetles to attack them. He had thought that this broken voice belonged to the gigantic horned beetles because it was umon for high level profound monsters to disy signs ofmunication.

    The broken voice had also startled Xiang Li and Anyang because it was speaking in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    "I''m a million year old spirit nt¡­ so it isn''t surprising that I have the spiritual strength to talk inside of you¡­"

    "I can sense that you have a wondrous spiritual pearl in your soul sea¡­ if you put me inside your soul sea, then I can even regrow my roots¡­ and I can help you to grow your cultivation strength as well as your divine swords¡­"

    Ji Yuan was truly startled as he said in his soul sea: Really? But how the heck can I put you in my soul sea? You are a physical nt¡­

    "I am a spirit nt¡­ master. I can turn to spirit form and be in your soul sea¡­"

    Anyang whispered to Xiang Li: I truly believe our lord needs some cultivation lesson. How did he be a great saint with his puny knowledge in the first ce¡­

    Ji Yuanughed: Haha¡­ I see¡­

    Actually, Ji Yuan was the same as 99% of the other cultivators out there; they were not the blessed sons of the heavens and they did not care for knowledge that was outside their sphere of interest.

    If anyone says that they are good in everything given the long lives that they have, then that person is lying. It is because without interest, it is impossible to be even good in one subject. It is more like general knowledge and not a specialized knowledge.

    It is the same as saying a person is an Einstein because of the Einstein knowledge that is gained. Having Einstein knowledge doesn''t mean that person is an Einstein and he can be the next Einstein.

    To Chu Lixue, Yi Long, Spirit Consort Miao Humei and Xiao Muhan, they were suddenly startled to see that the Hundred zing Rose seemed to havepletely disappeared in Ji Yuan''s fingers as it entered into his soul sea.

    Chu Lixue asked curiously, "What have just happened?"

    The others were also looking curiously at Ji Yuan too.

    Ji Yuan looked at his senior sister and then to the others, "If I tell you that this Hundred zing Rose takes a liking to me and is now growing in my spiritual sea, will you believe me? Because I don''t believe it myself. Haha¡­"

    Everyone was staring at Ji Yuan with disbelief for they had never heard of anything like this before.

 Chapter 879 Day 2 Of The First Trial (5)

    ?

    Soon Ji Yuan was leading his team into the hot desert again.

    Toward the end of the day 2, he smiled to say to his team. "We are now 900 miles away from the desert fire now and 100 miles topleting this trial. As long as we hurry, it is even possible that we can finish this trial today."

    Xiao Muhan was getting tired and he could feel his profound strength depleting in the hot sun, "Hopefully we can finish this trial by today and we can have a good rest. I am so exhausted by this journey. This damn trial has no night for us to even regain our profound strength in this burning hot desert."

    Yi Ling was nodding too and she looked a little dazed too; the continuous walking under the hot desert sun had sapped away plenty of her profound strength to provide herself a protective animus against the hot desert sun. Without this protective animus, she would have died of thirst and dehydration in this desert.

    But this hot burning desert was daunting even to high level cultivators like Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling; they were saints but now they felt like an ordinary cultivator.

    As for the Spirit Consort Miao Humei, even though she was the lowest cultivation realm in the team but she was able to cope better than Yi Ling and Xiao Muhan. Perhaps, this was due to her spirit cultivation that allow her to withstand the elements better than them.

    But even then, she looked tired.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "From a team of 10, we are now left with 5. This trial is really hard. I feel that some unknown powers are trying to kill us all¡­"

    "I am sure that you have offended the mighty Goddess Ai Tina somehow," Xiao Muhan muttered.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Rubbish! Worry about yourself first. Even if we don''t have any encounters, the 3 of you may notst till the 3rd day of this trial since the 3 of you have the lower cultivation."

    When Ji Yuan had said this, the 3 of them were quiet; it was because they know that Ji Yuan was right. Even though they have profound pills with them but the effects of the profound pills diminish rapidly and it had almost no effect on them anymore. The burn rate of their profound strength really could not allow them to survive till to the end of the 3rd day especially with their current conditions.

    Ji Yuan had realized that he had cracked a bad joke and he said gently to the 3 injured cultivators, "Just follow me tightly and I''ll get all of you out of here."

    As he said that, he began to nod at encouraging at his Senior Sister Chu Lixue as well; they can all depend on him to get out of this situation.

    "Don''t worry. It is only thest 100 miles journey. I''ll get all of us out of this desert in no time¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had missed his footing and he had slipped down the sand slope of the sand dune!

    This startled everyone as they gasped almost at the same time, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    As Ji Yuan lost his bnce to slip down the sand slope, there was a sudden movement in the sand slope below that caused all the sands around it to be swallowed up, worsening the sand slide that Ji Yuan was upon!

    A big mouth had opened just below Ji Yuan, attempting to swallow him!

    Ji Yuan was stunned; the most cultivator in this team would actually soon to be dead instead of the 3 weaker cultivators!

    Even Anyang and Xiang Li were also horrified!

    Xiang Li screamed: We are doomed now!

    The spirit Hundred zing Rose could also sense the disturbances and was also screaming in broken tongues: We are dead soon¡­

    Chu Lixue was about to jump down to help Ji Yuan when a powerful profound animus had exploded over him; this was Ji Yuan demonic cherubim and he had quickly hovered upward to where she was.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha. I almost forget that I can hover. Or else I will surely perish. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    She was actually about to jump in with her seraphim profound animus to fly Ji Yuan out of the sand pit when Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered he could hover too.

    Everyone: ¡­

    Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were both in awe of Ji Yuan because at this moment, his cultivation realm had suddenly increased to the upper 8th cultivation realm level.

    To them, this was an unimagined existence already.

    Moreover, this deste cherubim was a 9th rank deste demonic beast too and capturing one to be used as one''s spirit entity was unimaginable hard, if not outright impossible.

    Yi Ling was stunned by the cultivation prowess of Ji Yuan and she had regretted looking down upon Ji Yuan at the very start; this Ji Yuan was not a sword cultivator that got lucky with a powerful divine sword but he was also a powerful super cultivator that could easily rival all the other cultivator powerhouses.

    Ji Yuan however had a bitter look, "Crap. I''m forced to consumed so much of my inner spiritual sea just to disy the profound strength for my spirit animus. If I cancel it now, it will be such a waste¡­"

    Then he had a sudden idea as he turned to say to Spirit Consort Miao Humei and Yi Ling, "Why don''t you hold on to my shoulder while I give the two of you an easy ride through the burning desert?"

    Xiao Muhan asked weakly, "How about me then?"

    "You can run after me, haha¡­" Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Chu Lixue turned to look at Ji Yuan and asked coldly, "How about me then?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Senior sister, erm¡­ can also run after me."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    "You are not going to give anyone a lift. We are all walking in the desert¡­ together!" Chu Lixue hummed coldly.

    In the end, Ji Yuan sucked his thumb and heartachingly dispelled his deste cherubim spirit animus to walk together.

    3 hours of forced marchter, the voice of the Trial Spirit said to them. "Congrattions on being the 5th team toplete the first trial."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What? We are not the first team toplete this trial?!"

    He was not the only one that was also surprised; the rest of his team had thought that they were the first too.

    Chu Lixue said bitterly, "There are many blessed sons and daughters of the heavens taking the trials of the Spiritas Tower. So, their results are not surprisingly. Also, our team overall strength setup isn''t that strong in the first ce and we have 5 casualties."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Actually if our team does not go after that Hundred zing Rose, we just have 3 causalities. So our result isn''t that bad."

    However, Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei was not listening at all; they had all simply copsed on the ground in great exhaustion.

    The voice of the Trial Spirit said above them, "You have earned 2 days of rest. Plus you havepleted the trial a day earlier, that means you have earned 3 days of rest in total."

    When the Trial Spirit had said that, a golden light began to descend upon to send them all away.

    When Ji Yuan blinked his eyes again after the golden light had descended upon him, he found himself back to the starting tform for the champions of the Snowy Pavilion City.

    Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan had also appeared in the same location too.

    They were not the first; there were 5 other champions in the arena too and among them, was Yang Batian the old champion of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er and also the one that had asked him for help with his Heavens Annihtion Profound Arts.

    Yang Baitianughed when he saw Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that you won''t die so easily. Muhahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed too, "I know old brother also won''t die so easily. Haha. So what the ranking of your team and how many champions survive in your team?"

    Yang Baitian smiled wryly, "We are actually first though and no one dies."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "How about you, Brother Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan weakly answered, "We are 5th but luckily no one has died under my brilliant leadership."

    Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Xiang Li and Anyang covered their faces when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan asked with a bitter look, "Say, who is the one that is leading your team? I just want to know who is capable leader is. You know. It is to prepare myself for a fight with this brilliant leader of yourster."

    I am going to shit on this ''brilliant leader''ter on.

    Xiang raised her fists angrily when she had heard Ji Yuan: Yeah! Let''s shit on this brilliant leader together!

    Yang Batian pondered for a while, "Our leader is a heavenly maiden whose great beauty is no less than Maiden Chu Lixue here. She is a champion that is fighting for Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang from the city-state of Aiel. Her name is Maiden Ling Feiyue."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes with a startled look: Feiyue is a champion here?!

    Fairy Anyang reminded Xiang Li and Ji Yuan: Don''t forget to shit on her.

    Ji Yuan, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Both Ji Yuan and Xiang Li pretended not to hear Anyang; in this shameless aspect they were experts in pretending not to hear.

    Chu Lixue on the other hand was smiling, "s, so it is Maiden Ling Feiyue. Then I am not surprised. She is better in the trials than Ji Yuan here."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck? Feiyue is better than I am?!

 Chapter 880 I Am A Divine Tree

    ?

    Ji Yuan had 3 days to cultivate back his profound strength.

    This time round he popped his first replenishing profound pill to cultivate back his profound strength; this more effective when using a replenishing profound pill in battle especially when there was no time to even cultivate.

    But Xiao Muhan had no other choice as he was already injured and moreover, he could not stop in the burning desert lest it would bring death upon him.

    Unlike Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue, he was looking pale and exhausted.

    Chu Lixue was not affected very much and she would only need less than a day of cultivation to fully recuperate her strength.

    If Ji Yuan had not used his deste cherubim spirit animus, he would be the same as his Senior Sister Chu Lixue.

    As Ji Yuan closed his eyes to withdraw his divine sense to meditate within his inner spiritual sea, he was quite startled to see the spirit form of the Hundred zing Rose with roots on its stems.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were looking quite astonished.

    Ji Yuan asked the Hundred zing Rose, "How did you recover so fast?"

    The Hundred zing Rose chuckled in a broken voice, "Mas¡­ ster¡­ your golden sun is indeed beneficial to me. It has so much of the spirit aura that I need that cultivating here for 1 hour is like 1 year in the desert¡­"

    "But there is no sun in my spiritual sea." Ji Yuan frowned as he pointed out.

    "The golden pearl¡­ is the sun!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "It isn''t the sun."

    "Mas¡­ master¡­ the goddess in the golden sun has¡­ helped me too¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "That is my golden pearl and not golden sun. What goddess? There is no goddess in my golden pearl."

    "There¡­ is... I have heard her voice¡­ so she must be a goddess¡­"

    "I think you may be hallucinating because of the injuries to our roots." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Xiang Li was also saying, "If there is a goddess inside the Golden Natal Divine Pearl, we will surely know."

    Ji Yuan praised Xiang Li, "Xiang Li, this time you are so coherent in your logic, haha!"

    Anyang giggled, "I am so impressed too. There isn''t any goddess in the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. We have cultivated uncountable times with the Golden Natal Divine Pearl already. As spirit entities, we are more sensitive than a mere spirit nt."

    The Hundred zing Rose protested brokenly, "I¡­ am no mere spirit nt¡­ I am millions of years old¡­ and I am inside the Spiritas Tower since the very beginning¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Alright, alright. We believe you then¡­"

    He was only saying this to pacify the spirit nt, just like he was pacifying Xiang Li and Anyang sometimes.

    These spirit entities could be quite stubborn at times and illogical at times so Ji Yuan was not going to argue with them.

    The Hundred zing Rose chuckled happily, "The goddess says¡­ we are fated so she is going to help me a little by aiding me to heal my roots¡­ she is so kind¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Yeah, right."

    Do you know that this is my Golden Natal Divine Pearl that you are healing upon? Darn, this spirit nt is like a parasite nt now in my spiritual sea. Maybe I should get rid of it as soon as possible¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose said continued to say, "Mas¡­sterrr, when I am fully well¡­ the goddess asks me to help to cultivate¡­"

    Xiang Li and Anyang had suddenly broken in giggles.

    Ji Yuan frowned at them, "Stop giggling. I can''t read your thoughts. What is it that you are trying to say to me?"

    Anyang giggled, "Our lord is sozy to cultivate and even this ''goddess'' knows about it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose warned unhappily, "Don''t underestimate me! I am a strong spirit nt¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "That got plucked by me." Ji Yuan chuckled as he helped the spirit nt to add.

    "I am a divine tree that can helps¡­ the cultivator to grow their cultivation core¡­ and even my precious spirit liquid can be used to temper divine swords¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang were allughing nonstop now.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were even rolling on the spiritual seas next to the spirit manifestation of the Hundred zing Rose.

    "I think, you still need a billion years to grow into a¡­ small tree, much less than a divine tree¡­" Ji Yuan wasughing nonstop and with great jovially.

    The Hundred zing Rose pointed out, "I am¡­ already¡­ a tree¡­"

    This caused Ji Yuan, Anyang and Xiang Li tough even move jovially; this was the funniest thing that they had ever heard from this small spirit nt that thinks that it was a tree.

    "The goddess says to me¡­ that I am so blessed to be able to cultivate¡­ in this golden sun¡­ and itpletely suits me¡­ in the future¡­ I will have limitless growth as a divine tree¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "You mean, you are not leaving me anytime soon?"

    "Nope. Never. I like this ce¡­ a lot."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is my spiritual sea, you know? And this Golden Natal Divine Pearl belongs to me¡­

    "If you are not leaving, how the heck am I able to cultivate my Golden Natal Divine Pearl in the future?"

    "The goddess¡­ says¡­ at your rate, you will never be able to¡­ even lift this Golden Sun¡­ above your spiritual sea to cultivate it¡­ so I am your best help¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I have my Xiang Li and Anyang to help me to cultivate this Golden Natal Divine Pearl you know."

    The Hundred zing Rose answered, "I know¡­ they are getting stronger and more beautiful around the golden sun and do not need to cultivate¡­ fairy spirits like them don''t need to cultivate like you do¡­ and they can''t help you either¡­ only I can¡­"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly looking at Xiang Li and Anyang, "Is this true? You can''t help me to cultivate?!"

    Anyang and Xiang Li appeared to be a little sheepish as they giggled sheepishly as well.

    Xiang Li giggled, "We just don''t want to disappoint Big Brother so we didn''t tell you about this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang was also giggling awkwardly, "My lord has been reading too many cultivation stories. Of course, you need to cultivate yourself. We can''t do a thing for you. Heehee¡­"

    Ji Yuan felt like pping himself, "Then this Golden Natal Divine Pearl ispletely useless to me. I can''t even cultivate it at my present cultivation realm while it is struck inside my inner spiritual sea¡­"

    "Mas¡­master¡­ I can help you¡­ don''t you feel stronger now¡­ and your profound strength is also recovering much faster now? That is because¡­ of me!"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "To be honest, I don''t feel a thing."

    The Hundred zing Rose: ¡­

    2. Although this may seem like a joke chapter but this Divine Tree with the Golden Natal Divine Pearl is able to help Ji Yuan to grow in his cultivation strength tremendously in the future and has a major help in future arcs.

 Chapter 881 Prelude To The Second Trial (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan had 3 days to recuperate before the start of the second trial and he would fully need to take 3 days to replenish his inner spiritual sea through cultivation.

    When the first trial had finally ended a dayter, there were 33 champions in their city-state that had survived.

    Many of them were all looking exhausted and demoralized; the horrors that they had been facing would only be imagined!

    Slightly more than half of the champions in their city-state hadpletely perished; this was a big loss considered that this was only the first trial of many.

    The Trial Spirit announced once again to the 33 surviving champions, "You will all be given 2 days to rest from the ordeals of your trials."

    Ji Yuan continued to cultivate to regain his profound strength.

    But to his surprise, he had actually taken 2 days in total to fully regain his profound strength; it was because he could feel that his rate of cultivation and recovering rate was in fact faster now.

    That was not all.

    His hasty cultivation realm was also stabilizing faster than he had expected and he did not need to wait for 100 years to do so. It may be shorter than this.

    He began to wonder: This little spirit nt is actually helpful?

    He had not put much hope in trusting the words of this parasite spirit nt in the first ce and moreover it also seemed to be quite boastful of its own ability too.

    Ji Yuan could guess that this parasite spirit nt was actually very hard to promote itself so that it may stay in his inner spiritual sea and cultivate off his immortal Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    He actually did not mind that because he felt a little guilty for plucking this spirit nt anyway. The only reason why he had plucked it was because he was trying to show off in front of his senior sister.

    Chu Lixue saw that Ji Yuan seemed to have recovered and she looked a little startled, "Are you a monster? Or are you consuming other powerful profound pills that can quickly recover your profound strength in only 2 days? Be warned that it may have an adverse effect on you instead!"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually my senior sister, I have only taken two weak replenishing profound pills so far. Once per day. Haha¡­"

    Chu Lixue ignored that for she had more important matter in her mind.

    She disyed her most coquettishly and divine self to Ji Yuan, that could melt the hearts of most men.

    "Junior Brother Ji Yuan, do you think that you can share a little of the Hundred zing Rose to me?"

    That was her real intention.

    This Hundred zing Rose would be most useful to her cultivation.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Senior sister, I can''t. Because this Hundred zing Rose has taken root in my inner spirit sea now and there is no way for me to pluck it now."

    Chu Lixue returned a look of displeasure on him, "You are not joking with your senior sister, am I right? After all my bodily sacrifices for you."

    Ji Yuan was smiling most bitterly, "I hope that senior sister will believe me¡­"

    The real spirit nt had indeed taken root deep inside his inner spirit sea with his Golden Natal Divine Pearl. When it manifests itself to talk to him or to Xiang Li and Anyang, only its spirt manifestation and not the real thing would appear above his inner spiritual sea.

    He could not even touch the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that was inside his inner spirit sea, so how could he even touch that parasite spirit nt that was rooted on top on it and even iming his golden pearl as its golden sun?

    Chu Lixue was really displeased now, "Ji Yuan! You are too selfish! Your senior sister only wants a little bit and yet you are not even agreeing to give me a little. I am so disappointed in you!"

    Ji Yuan felt like pping himself¡­

    This was a fix that he could not even exin himself¡­<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan whispered as softly as he could even though the sharp ears of the other cultivators had already heard the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue by now.

    "Senior sister, I can even give you my heart even. But for this spirit nt I really can''t give you. How about this? I give you my emperor-step divine sword as apensation?"

    Anyang and Xiang Li were horrified: We will be given away?!

    Actually, Ji Yuan was only referring to his half-step emperor divine sword that formed part of his 9 flying swords.

    Chu Lixue hummed coldly, "Who wants your divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan whispered with a bad grin, "How about I give you my body as a reward?"

    Chu Lixue had turned coyly as she lowered her voice to protest shyly, "Who¡­ wants¡­ your body?!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he took the opportunity to exin, "This spirit herb is like a parasite worm that has wormed its way into my inner spiritual sea. I actually don''t mind giving my senior sister the entire spirit nt but I can''t seem to get it out after it turned into a spirit form and entered my inner spiritual sea."

    "Seriously?" Chu Lixue looked startled.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I really regret giving it my permission to enter my inner spiritual sea. Now it likes it so much that it refuses to leave anymore. And it is so deep inside my inner spirit sea that I can''t even uproot it or to remove it. So, is it a parasite worm or not?"

    Chu Lixue took a step away from Ji Yuan, "Alright, I believe you this time. But don''t touch me while you still got that disgusting worm inside your inner spiritual sea. Because I hate worms. Who knows if you are infected by something weird or not."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Don''t touch my senior sister?!

    And Chu Lixue had really moved away from Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li! Anyang!" He quickly ordered them. "Get rid of the parasite worm in my inner spiritual sea from this day onward! By hook or by crook!"

    Xiang Li asked curiously: What parasite worm? Your little brother?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang said weakly: Our lord is referring to that tiny little ''divine tree''.

    Xiang Li answered: Oh? By hook or by crook means we have to hook it up from deep inside Big Brother''s inner spiritual sea, am I right?"

    Anyang said bitterly: Yeah, right. Fish it up with a hook.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he muttered: This conversation is going nowhere¡­

 Chapter 882 Prelude To The Second Trial (2)

    ?

    In the Divine Temple at Snowy Pavilion City.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Divine Consorts Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Jie''Er and Ding Jie''Er were quite relieved that the first trial had finally ended and that the second trial was starting soon.

    They almost fainted from watching the first trial that had just urred when almost half of the champions were all wiped out.

    This trial was too brutal and was too difficult!

    When Ji Yuan had slipped and was almost swallowed up by a pit sand monster, they were too shocked for words; the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan did not die from any of the wild encounters and instead he was going to be killed because he had lost his footings.

    This was a most hrious way of dying.

    Luckily, Ji Yuan was a super cultivator that had a powerful animus that could allow him to hover.

    Ding Jie''Er wailed, "This trial is a little difficult, am I right?"

    Xu Yifei tried to defend the Goddess Ai Tina by saying, "But at least Ji Yuan survives, right?"

    The same scene had almost caused Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing to burst out in tears as they got overwhelmed by the thoughts that they would soon be widows.

    Even Destiny had stopped sipping her spirit tea and was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly fallen down the sandy slope.

    -

    -

    -

    The 2 days break was quickly over.

    And the Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower was now announcing to the champions in their respective resting arenas, "Now to begin the second trial¡­"

    "There are 330 champions that have sessful made it through to the second trial¡­"

    "In this second trial, you will be taken to a battle arena in a team of 6 to fight 3 rounds of battle with the primeval monsters that are at the seventh rank¡­. Up to 3 of you can fight a round together."

    "¡­All 330 champions will be randomly seeded in a team of 6¡­"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin with a look of astonishment at Chu Lixue.

    It was as though he was saying: Only 7th rank primeval monster? Is it one or many? There must be a catch somewhere¡­

    Before he could react actually say it to his senior sister, pirs of lights had already taken the champions away to another location.

    It included Ji Yuan as well.

    He soon found himself in a small arena and there were 5 others that were appearing at the same time too; but he could not see them due to the bright light or use his divine sense.

    The Trial Spirit resounded above them, "You have 30 minutes to get to know each other and to decide which of you shall go for your Round 1, Round 2 and Round 3. Up to 3 champions can fight in a single round but you cannot choose a champion again¡­"

    "¡­ You gain 3 Points if you are able to win a battle with the primeval monster. But you will lose 1 point for each champion that has perished. You need to gain 6 points to qualify for the third trial¡­"

    "When this trial ends, you will have 2 days of break¡­"

    "¡­The countdown shall start now¡­"

    When Ji Yuan''s vision had cleared, he saw that among the other 5 champions were Xiao Muhan and his Senior Sister Chu Lixue; they had appeared clear to him first since they were also standing near to him before the light took them here.

    Ji Yuan giggled as he looked at them, "Why am I not surprise this time?"

    Xiao Muhan rubbed his eyes and was astonished to see Ji Yuan again.

    Chu Lixue muttered weakly, "This trial must be rigged."

    "Ji Yuan!"

    A beautiful form had suddenly shed to embrace into a dance with Ji Yuan and it was Ling Feiyue!

    Ji Yuan was absolutely delighted to see Ling Feiyue and they were hugging and dancing in circle joyfully.

    "Hahahaha¡­ Feiyue, it is really you. We are in the same team!"

    "Ji Yuan, you didn''t die from thest trial. Amazing!" Ling Feiyue''s soft heavenly giggles filled the atmosphere.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Feiyue, what a thing to say to your lord. Aren''t you afraid that I may be angry with you?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled in a nonchntly manner as she said gently, "Why should I care if you are angry? You should care if I am angry, right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "But you never angry so why should I care if you are angry?"

    Then he whispered to her, "I need to find my beloved Qianfeng next, the sooner the better."

    Ling Feiyue whispered curiously, "What for? To sleep better?"

    Ji Yuan frowned weakly, "No!"

    Then he lowered his voice to a even lower whisper, "I need her help to make an avatar doll for me so that I can fake my own death in this trial."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "That is interesting," Ling Feiyue smiled. "But did it ever ur to you that she may not be in this trial as a champion at all?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm, no¡­"

    To the others, their conversations did not make any sense at all; it was because it sounds more like slinging mud on each other.

    Ji Yuan suddenly said, "Well, we should try to introduce to the other champions first."

    Beside Ling Feiyue, there were 2 other champions.

    Everyone quickly introduced themselves.

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "Xiao Muhan."

    "Chu Lixue."

    "Ling Feiyue!"

    A male champion immediately raised his hands up to greet with a smile, "I am Bu Danwang. It is my honor to be in the same team as Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan here."

    It was obvious that he was a celestial champion as he got a ck ring on his finger.

    The he quickly greeted Ling Feiyue, "Maiden Ling, we have met again."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned unhappily when he noticed that Ling Feiyue was wearing too revealing and she was not even covering herself with a veil. "You know each other?"

    Bu Danwang smiled, "Maiden Ling is my team leader from thest trial."

    Ji Yuan continued to frown with a cold look; no one can green him, not even with their eyes!

    Thest champion to be introduced also had a ck ring but he was wrapped in a ck cloak that covered his face and he was walking awkwardly.

    But somehow, Ji Yuan thought that this man looks a little familiar to him even though his profound signature seemed to be unknown to him.

    "We have finally¡­ met once again¡­ Ji Yuan" The unknown man croaked.

    "Who are you?" Ji Yuan frowned.

    The unknown manughed eerily before he unwrapped his face full of blisters and pus. "Do you still remember me?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "No, I don''t. In fact, I have never met such an ugly man like yourself."

    Everyone else: ¡­

    Although this unknown man was truly hideous but it was considered polite not to mention it but Ji Yuan had simply mentioned it in his face.

    Actually, Ji Yuan did this on purpose as he did not like to y guessing games and he likes to make his potential enemies angry so that he could find an opportunity to exploit their weakness when they had lost their cool.

    The hideous man was trembling and he was hissing angrily, "Ji Yuan! How dare you not recognize me?! I am Jin Yilong! You have caused me to be in this state. Luckily, I am still alive!"

    When he had announced that he was Jin Yilong, Ling Feiyue and even Xiao Muhan were shocked; it was because the Jin Yilong that they know was supposed to be a handsome yboy that had uncountable beautiful maidens as his ythings.

    But he had be like this and he even had a foul stench emitting from his body.

    Ji Yuan was actually startled that this hideous man was actually Jin Yilong and he blinked his eyes before asking, "I see that you have really listened to my advice to cut off your ugly beard. So did you listen to my other advice and be a eunuch as well?"

    Jin Yilong was shaking with rage now and his entire body seemed to be rattling with a weird sound.

    All of a sudden, brown insectoid wings seemed to have spurted from his back!

    This startled everyone and caused everyone to take a few steps backward in fear.

    Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue retreated the most steps because they were actually fearful of this Jin Yilong and because he looked quite disgusting too.

    Only Ji Yuan stood on his ground but mainly because he valued his face too much to take a step backward and had to suck his thumb to face this hideous Jin Yilong.

    Jin Yilong hissed as he raised his bony fingers that seemed to have spikes of hair growing on him, "Ji Yuan, I am going to kill you in this ce. You have caused me to be in this state. I will let you die slowly by eating you piece by piece. I am no longer the weak Jin Yilong that you know anymore. In fact, I am stronger than even a peaked great saint now in my metamorphosis state!"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Why didn''t you die yet¡­"

    2. Jin Yilong just won''t die:X

 Chapter 883 Ji Yuan Vs. Jin Yilong

    ?

    "Jin Yilong! You are my son''s father-inw and the father of my daughter-inw! That''s why I have spared you thest time. Are you saying that you want to fight me? Are you certain?"

    Ji Yuan had unsheathed Xiang Li to wave in front of him.

    "Are you even a match for my divine sword?"

    Xiang Li pleaded panicky to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I know that you don''t want to touch him but please don''t swing my sword at him. I don''t want my dwelling sword to touch him!

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to Xiang Li: That is precisely my point, Xiang Li. I don''t want to touch him either.

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    Jin Yilongughed creakingly, "Hohoho. Ji Yuan! You are stupid to think that you are stronger than me. You have no idea how strong I am now so I am going to kill you now!"

    At that time when Jin Yilong was swallowed by the cockroach like deste monster in the desert, he had thought that he was truly dead but it turned out that he was apatible mate to the monster and he had even merged together with it to produce hordes of monstrous offspring.

    The voice of the Trial Spirit had suddenly sounded a warning above them, "If you fight and kill each other, you will suffer -1 Point for each champion that is killed. So you will need 7 Points to pass this trial instead of 6 Points if a champion is killed. Or 8 Points if two champions are killed."

    Jin Yilong hissed and he had already disyed his profound aura, "I don''t mind as long as I can kill Ji Yuan!"

    Although his profound aura was still at the 7th cultivation strength but it was really dense, like a profound beast!

    Ji Yuan had already whirled himself to meet Jin Yilong but he said to the others nevertheless, "You guys don''t mind if I settle this fight first, do you?"

    Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue panicky said, "Ji Yuan, kill him for us!"

    This Jin Yilong looked too hideous and they did not want to be in the same team as him.

    Jin Yilong merelyughed at Ji Yuan as he raised his fingers that quickly be 10 sharpen talons!

    In thest trial, he had dropped into the burning sand pits and ughtered all gigantic sand monsters inside.

    He was stronger than Ji Yuan and the Devil Goddess!

    His sharpen talons were like 10 heaven-step divine swords as Jin Yilong exploded his profound aura to fight Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he shed back and his sword aura was triggered; when his opponent''s profound attack exceeded a certain strength, Ji Yuan''s sword aura would automatically be triggered as a defense.

    Ji Yuan knew that he must not be careless as he unsheathed Anyang as well, along with his Ultra Sword Spirit on his forehead.

    Xiang Li and Anyang immediately warned him and they were screaming panicky: We don''t want to touch him!!!

    Ji Yuan was speechless by them; in this life and death battle, they could still be so choosy in how he was going to use their divine swords.

    Why did I even make them the artefact souls of my divine swords in the first ce?

    A powerful profound attack by Jin Yilong had suddenly exploded upon Ji Yuan who blocked it with his divine swords; the profound power that was just disyed could even beparable to his Grand Cross attack!

    Jin Yilong was surprised that his ultimate profound attack did not rip Ji Yuan apart and instead he had even blocked his attack with his divine swords.

    Ji Yuan''s block was naturally reinforced by his sword aura and the profound strength of his Ultra Sword Spirit.

    He had not expected that Jin Yilong would suddenly be this strong.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He disyed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon with Xiang Li as a white streak of light in the form of coiling dragon exploded upon Jin Yilong.

    Jin Yilong simply raised his ws to slice apart his sword energies and his robust profound aura had also ensured that he did not take any damage from it.

    There was still a small window before Jin Yilong could use his super profound attack again and Ji Yuan knows it; he had merely used the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to buy himself some time.

    When Jin Yilong was blocking his attack, he had already disyed his deste cherubim spirit animus to raise his profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm and he had charged his two divine swords into a burst of bright light!

    In this very instant, he hadbined the profound sword energies of two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon into the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as a long beam of profound energies exploded furiously in a straight line and upon Jin Yilong.

    Jin Yilong could not believe that Ji Yuan could raise his profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm and he could even disy such powerful energies that could even burn up his robust profound aura.

    He began to muster all his profound strength to resist the powerful burst of energy bursts from Ji Yuan; if he could resist Ji Yuan''s profound attack then he could counter-attack soon.

    Ji Yuan''s Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light could onlyst 5 blinks of an eye and once he exhausted this profound attack, there was a short window where he would be vulnerable to attacks as this attack required him all his profound strength to sync with his profound energies.

    All of a sudden Chu Lixue had raised her divine sword from behind Jin Yilong and with a blue white of light, this profound attack had struck his back and causing him to scream loudly for it had also bust his profound strength.

    At the same time, Ling Feiyue had unleashed her Thousand Raining Swords upon Ji Yilong, the most powerful stance of her Flying Spirit Sword Art.

    This resulted in Jin Yilong''s robust profound aura to falter and the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon topletely burn him up and ripping him apart.

    Ji Yuan disyed a stunned look at Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue, "Erm¡­ we are having a duel¡­"

    Chu Lixue hummed coldly, "I know that you can defeat him in the end. But I don''t want you to waste our time by having your fanciful duel when the next fight is about to start soon. And I don''t care about your martial honor."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "I don''t care about your martial honor either."

    Xiang Li and Anyang were saying at the same time too: We don''t want to touch that Jin Yilong¡­

    "Actually¡­" Ji Yuan began to ponder with a frown, "You know¡­"

    Before he could say more, Ling Feiyue was smiling to him. "Why don''t you fight the first round on your own? Since you want to fight so much and you have already disyed your spirit animus."

    Actually, Ji Yuan had wanted to tell Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue that they did good but he was too awkward to praise them for disying such poor martial honor.

    The Trial Spirit announced over them, "Your team now has a -1 Penalty and you need 7 Points to ovee this trial. The trial starts will starts in 10 minutes time."

    Ji Yuan looked at Ling Feiyue, Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang before saying, "Now we need to win 3 times for the 3 rounds in order to qualify for the third trial."

    "It is alright."

    Ling Feiyue smiled nonchntly, "We just have to treat Jin Yilong as our team''s first casualty for the first round of battle if this makes you feel a little better."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Now I feel much better! Haha¡­"

 Chapter 884 The First Battle Of The Second Trial

    ?

    The Greater Spirit Realm.

    Tang Li said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "This trial isn''t easy at all. On all appearances, they only need to win 2 out of 3 of the battles to score 6 points which is sufficient to clear this trial. But if a champion dies, they will lose 1 Point. Having any champion dead will force the team will win all 3 battles. Having more than half of the team dead, means they can''tplete this trial at all."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "Isn''t this more fun this way? Don''t look at me like this. I didn''t set this trial and only tweak the rules. This trial is actually a simple trial. Nothing can go wrong."

    Tang Li pointed out, "Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan''s team has already lost 1 candidate so they need to win 3 times and they can''t afford to lose another 3 champions."

    The Goddess Ai Tina smiled, "You seem concern about this Ji Yuan too?"

    Tang Li looked a little flustered as she looked away; through the Divine Temple in Snowy Pavilion City, she could now see her daughter Tang Manni.

    She is really happy that her daughter is now a divine consort now.

    However, she could also see the anxious nuances that were disyed in her daughter''s countenance whenever Ji Yuan got into a fine fix; she knows that her daughter Tang Manni was truly in love with this Ji Yuan.

    She whispered to the Goddess Ai Tina, "Are you able to get Tang Manni to be with Ji Yuan?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina sighed softly, "I can''t even get my Xu Yifei to be with Ji Yuan. So what do you think? He isn''t from our world and he will be returning to his own world soon after this."

    Right now both of them had just finished watching a battle imagery that had urred with Ji Yuan''s team and he was fighting with another cultivator, Jin Yilong.

    This cultivator was extremely strong but he seemed to have a grudge against Ji Yuan and the two of them were suddenly fighting despite the Trial Spirit''s warning.

    The fight concluded with Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue attacking Jin Yilong as well.

    It was not a glorious fight for it was a 3 vs. 1 fight.

    But no one from Ji Yuan team seemed to care about this because this Jin Yilong was too hideous and looked more like a monster.

    None of the divine consorts cared too in the Spirit Divine Realm and they all wished Jin Yilong to be dead too.

    And so did almost all the spectors in the colosseums.

    Even the Goddess Ai Tina, Tang Li and all the immortal divine consorts that were presented too.

    None of them cared about the martial honor between Jin Yilong and Ji Yuan.

    Although both of them had the initials JY but the treatment between the two of them were like the heavens and the earth!

    In fact, everyone seemed to be cheering when the hideous Jin Yilong was dead.

    Even the Trial Spirit was actually willing to extend the time so that Ji Yuan could kill Jin Yilong and get this sore eye away from the battle arena.

    -

    -

    -

    The Trial Spirit announced, "The second trial shall start now. Score 6 points and clear this trial for your team! There will be 1 battle a day. Every battle that is won, 3 Points will be won!"

    "The battle shall take ce simultaneously with no time limit set. It is either a win or lose battle¡­"

    "¡­ Be warned that you need 6 points to clear this trial and for every champion that dies, there is a -1 Point penalty. Up to 3 champions can choose to fight in the same battle but the picked champion cannot take part in further battles anymore¡­ now for the first battle!"

    Ji Yuan was the one and only champion of his team for the first round of fight.

    It was because it would be a waste for him to dispel his spirit animus.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    So he entered the battle arena with his two emperor-step divine swords, ultra sword spirit, sword aura and the deste cherubim spirit animus.

    A shortter, a monstrous seventh rank primeval drake like monster had appeared and it was so big that its ws could grab hold of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What the heck?! This is too big¡­ is it even a 7th rank monster¡­"

    "The Titan Three Horned Drake shall fight with the champions for the first battle!" The Trial Spirit announced when the same monster started to spawn across all the battle fields simultaneously.

    Many of the champions were ashen now.

    This Titan Three Horned Drake could easily tear apart 10 of the 8th rank gigantic horned beetles that Ji Yuan had previously fought even though it is only at the 7th rank.

    The profound beasts were ranked ordingly to the strength of their profound auras, just like the cultivators. So this 7th rank Titan Three Horned Drake is actually weaker in profound aura than a 8th gigantic horned beetles.

    However, this 7th rank monstrous Titan Three Horned Drake is 10 times bigger than the 8th gigantic horned beetles and it is capable of disying 7 times more profound strength than a 8th gigantic horned beetle.

    Size does matter for profound beasts.

    This 7th rank monstrous Titan Three Horned Drake was just a little short of being called an epic 7th profound beast due to its weaker profound aura.

    The Titan Three Horned Drake gave a terrifying roar as it began to swing its tail in a startling rattling shockwave that shook the ground before charging at Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan immediately threw both of his divine swords into two brilliant shes of light that resembled more like a piecing spear as he disyed his Sacred Pir Sword.

    The two shes of light struck the head of the Three Horned Drake and Ji Yuan''s two divine swords were struck harmlessly in its thick armored head.

    This monster''s armor was too thick even for Ji Yuan''s Sacred Pir Sword to hurt it.

    Then in a sh, Ji Yuan was upon his two divine swords again and with a loud yell, he had disyed his life and death Grand Cross sword domain.

    With a brilliant sh of light that split outward in four gigantic ring white light, he had split the head of the Titan Three Horned Drake into four parts, killing it immediately.

    What was left afterward was the burning life force energies that was from Ji Yuan that formed a big cross sectional cut on the body of the monster as well as on the ground.

    This was his extraordinary life force energies Grand Cross miracle sword art!

    On hindsight to Ji Yuan, this may seem to be a little overkill but he knows that he had to demonstrate his fierceness in front of Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue so that they would not be careless with their battlester.

    Ji Yuan was the first champion to havepleted the first battle and his battle was also short.

    Many of the spectors and divine consorts from throughout the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad were actually watching Ji Yuan''s battle imagery in adtion for he was the Great Spiritas Hero and also the Great Divine Lord.

    This battle of his further adted the hearts of everyone and there were explosive cheering and screams from all the colosseums when Ji Yuan had killed this Titan Three Horned Drake.

    "Champion Ji Yuan wins. His team will be rewarded 3 Points." The Trial Spirit announced.

    Xiao Muhan''s legs were shaking when he saw the fight and he was terrified at how terrifying this Titan Three Horned Drake was.

    This was also actually the first time that he had witnessed how strong Ji Yuan truly was.

    He muttered, "I don''t want to get killed¡­"

 Chapter 885 The Second Trial Is Crap

    ?

    For the second trial, things were not eventful whenpared with Ji Yuan''s team even though it was also not that eventful to begin with.

    Although none of the teams had broken into a life and death fight like the one that had happened to Ji Yuan''s team but almost everyone was arguing hotly before the start of the battle.

    It was because they had so little time to decide on their fight strategy, which actually required them to have much more time.

    For example, the first group of champions to fight would have 4 days of cultivation rest and this would be helpful to them for their next trial. That was why no one wants to be thest group.

    But none of them really want to be the first group too because they had no idea what they would be facing and they did not know if the strategies that they were using was actually the correct one?

    Being in the second group to battle in the battle arena was actually the choice of many of the champions as it was somewhat in-between but it was also the group that many of the champions were arguing that they should be in.

    The question of dividing the champions into group 1,2 or 3 among the 6 champions became the instant hot topic because everyone had only 30 minutes to decide!

    This was shocking to most of the champions as they could even argue the whole day on this.

    And what about how many champions in team 1, 2 or 3 then?

    Again, this was another tricky problem!

    And they got only 30 minutes to quickly decide!

    Is the trial ying a joke on them?

    This was what they were all thinking!

    The Trial Spirit warned those teams that have not decided on their champions for the first battle in thest 5 minutes, "If you are unable to decide then I shall have to randomly pick 2 champions from among the 6 of you to fight in the battle arena."

    Thest 5 minutes were the messiest as the champions argue why they should be the first to fight and ttering the strong champions among them to have a go first.

    "If we send a weak champion to fight first, then all we need to do is to win the other two battles right?"

    "Stupid! If one of the champions is dead, we lose -1 Point! And even if we are able to win the 2nd and the 3rd fight, it is pointless!"

    "Shall we send 3 champions to fight in the first battle? They can also look out for each other. Then we reserve the best champions for the second and third battle?"

    "Even though, it may appear that we only need to win 2 rounds but we can''t afford to even lose a single champion!"

    "This trial is as shit as thest trial¡­"

    "At least in thest trial, we still have a chance¡­"

    "Actually, we are all survivors of thest trial¡­"

    The Trial Spirit announced, "1 minute."

    Many of the champions: ¡­

    In the end, the Trial Spirit at the behest of the Goddess Ai Tina announced. "To make the fight more interesting for the spectors to follow, those teams that are ready can fight first. As for the rest, you will be given an additional 2 hours'' time to decide on your battle strategy."

    This brought ast minute relief to many of the teams because they had literally wasted 30 minutes of their time in arguing and have not picked a champion for their first group yet.

    But then, even 2 hours were not enough.

    Naturally, one of the first teams to fight in the battle arena was Ji Yuan and he was alone.

    Also, he had finished his fight faster than the spectors could finish their snacks in the colosseums.

    However for many of the teams, their fights were not as quick as Ji Yuan.

    Some took as long as 3 hours and the next shortest time was 30 minutes time.

    There were plenty of curses from the teams.

    "Crap! We''ve just lost one champion!"

    "Our champions are all wiped out¡­ this means that we have lost¡­"

    "What!!! These profound monsters are seriously too powerful for us to handle¡­"

    It was obvious that not everyone was happy with their team performances and even the loss of one champion was enough to cause a loud wailing sound.

    At the end of the day, the teams that had lost the battleint the loudest because they had lost all motivations to fight for the second and the third battle! <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    In the Greater Spirit Realm, the Goddess Ai Tina looked a little sheepish as she looked at the other immortal divine consorts, "Hey, don''t look at me like this. I must admit that this is a little out of my calctions. This is the first time that I am organizing the trials too so there are bound to be a little imperfection in it."

    She added with a wry smile, "Trust me, my faithful immortal divine consorts. I will only get better. There won''t be a second time!"

    Tang Li smiled weakly: This sounds a little too familiar...

    In the end when the first battle was finally over, the Trial Spirit announced to all the teams. "Well¡­ there is a rule that I''ve forgotten to mention. If your team has lost in the second trial but you have won your battles, you will still be eligible to go to the next trial. 100 Champions among you will be randomly selected."

    This more or less pacified the teams after the first battle had ended.

    After the first battle had ended, many of the teams were re-nning their strategies to send 3 champions instead.

    Believed it or not, most of the teams were still arguing over their groups from night to the next day, because everyone wanted to seize the best advantages.

    "3 Champions are the safest. As long as we win our fight, then we can be eligible to go to the third trial¡­"

    "Woes to the dead champions that have lost the first round in the battle arena¡­"

    "They have paid with it with their lives so that we can all live¡­"

    "It is most unfortunately to the dead champions that they didn''t get to know about this hidden rule before they fight¡­"

    "Luckily I have chosen to stay behind, haha¡­"

    "Second group should be the safest¡­"

    "We can''t form a 3 champion team for the second and third group¡­ we have only 6 champions and not 9 champions¡­"

    "Crap! We have already sent 3 champions to fight in the first round¡­"

    "Erm, do you think that there may be more hidden rules tomorrow?"

    Naturally none of these problems were quing Ji Yuan''s team at this moment because Ji Yuan had solo the first round and they still have 4 unused champions.

    But Ji Yuan''s team still have to decided who to go for tomorrow''s fight.

    Bu Danwang was smiling, "Luckily we have the brilliant leadership of Maiden Ling Feiyue to lead us once again. She is right to let the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to fight first."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "This is nothing. It is just a suggestion that everyone agreed to send Ji Yuan to fight."

    Ji Yuan took an unpleasant look at Bu Danwang as he thought: Ling Feiyue is mine! Stop ttering to her!

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, maybe Maiden Ling Feiyue is the one that is helping you with the trials all this while in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. So far, you have no issue with your trial with her around.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan had suddenly said with a weak voice, "Can I don''t go tomorrow?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled with a bad grin, "Sure!"

    Xiao Muhan looked quite relieved and he was smiling, "Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan added a loud chuckle, "For tomorrow battle, we shall have Maiden Lixue, Maiden Feiyue and Brother Bu Danwang to fight. For thest battle, we shall have Brother Xiao Muhan to fight on his own then."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    He bitterly said, "I will lose the 3rd round, aren''t you afraid of failing the trial?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly, "Didn''t you hear what the Trial Spirit has just said? There will be 100 champions that will be selected for the third trial anyway. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he remarked to his team, "I love this trial. Haha..."

 Chapter 886 The Second Battle Of The 2nd Trial

    ?

    Ji Yuan''s team was probably the only team that did not discuss its strategies yesterday and the entire night; it was because Ji Yuan had spent the remaining time of yesterday day and night chatting with Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue.

    Naturally Xiao Muhan was excluded and he had only Bu Danwang to chat with.

    Bu Danwang looked a little worried as he asked Xiao Muhan, "Are they discussing strategies? I don''t want to fight alone or to fight along with you, because you are even weaker than me."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Is this a p on my face?

    But he answered nevertheless to Bu Danwang, "Don''t worry. They are not discussing anything rted tobat or battle strategies over there."

    "Why are you so sure about this? Maybe you are wrong?" Bu Danwang continued to say with a worry look.

    Xiao Muhan smiled bitterly, "That is because I am that Ji Yuan''s best friend."

    "You are¡­ Ji Yuan''s best friend? You don''t look like it." Bu Danwang appeared to be shocked. "Didn''t he suggest letting you fight alone for the 3rd round of battle earlier?"

    Xiao Muhan said bitterly, "You can''t believe half the words that he is saying. He has an impure soul sea."

    "Strong cultivators don''t lie, do they?" Bu Danwang appeared to be shocked. "You aren''t kidding with me, right? No cultivators can survive the lightning cmity to be a great saint if they have impure soul sea. No, you can''t even be a saint in the first ce. This is against our cultivation practice. You are a celestial too, so you should know. Am I right?"

    Xiao Muhan sighed, "I am still trying to figure out how he bes a great saint in the first ce. Is it because of that Dream Trial? Darn, how he survives his breakthrough with his impure cultivation in the first ce¡­ maybe it is easier for a sword cultivator¡­ the darndest question is, how did he overtake me so quickly in the first ce¡­"

    The next day, while Ji Yuan, Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue were stillughing jovially as they chat, Ling Feiyue had suddenly announced to Ji Yuan that she would be fighting in the second group.

    "Ji Yuan, I am going to fight on my own for the second battle."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he stared at Ling Feiyue''s bosoms. "Are you serious Feiyue? Are you sure?"

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly put her hand on Ji Yuan''s chin and lifted it up so that his golden eyes could look at her golden eyes instead, "Where do you think that you are looking at?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly as his eyes looked again below her, "Of course I am looking at my beloved Feiyue. What else?"

    Ling Feiyue lifted his chin high up until even his lowered eyes were looking at her, "Are you in love with me because of my body or because of my face?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "Is there a difference?"

    When he had said that, Ling Feiyue had kicked him lightly and so did Chu Lixue who was listening.

    Ji Yuan replied weakly, "Erm¡­"

    He asked Xiang Li and Anyang: what is the correct reply?

    Xiang Li shouted excitingly: Beautiful body!

    Anyang giggled: Beautiful face of course!

    Ji Yuan: Xiang Li, your reply is toome!

    He quickly replied, "Your¡­ beautiful face¡­ of course."

    Ling Feiyue said unhappily, "So if I am ugly, you won''t like me at all?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Erm¡­ right?"

    Needless to be said, Ji Yuan got pped by both Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue for his me'' answers.

    Crap! I should have listen to Xiang Li and answered beautiful body instead...

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "You know that I am only teasing you. Of course, I like my beloved Ling Feiyue for who you are."

    100 years ago, Ling Feiyue had already left a deep impression in his heart and 100 yearster, they were almost constantly together.

    Against her patriarch wishes at the very start, Ling Feiyue had even requested for Ji Yuan to be the dark lord of her unorthodox celestial sect.

    At that time, she did not care if Ji Yuan was a lowly cultivator or not.

    She had setup Ji Yuan 100 years ago when she was 200 years, considered to be very young for a young saintess at that time and she was also a super genius. In fact, Ji Yuan at that time was twice her age and even had a lower cultivation than her.

    But she had admired Ji Yuan and wanted to see him but she had also heard that he was not interested in the maidens and only the men.

    But still, she wanted to see if this was true by meeting him face to face.

    They did not really start off being quite amicable as Ji Yuan had treated her like a rival instead.

    This waspletely different from what her spies or rumors had told her about Ji Yuan the Great Poet.

    At that time, she was not sure if she was in love with Ji Yuan yet because they got a big poor and rich background in disparity in cultivation wealth and locations. And she was just purely trying to get to know him out of curiosity and not because of love.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    It was only 100 yearster when he was beardless and she had gone on a trial with him that she had liked him more and more.

    The rest was history.

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherent to himself, "If I am ugly, you won''t even look at me in the first ce¡­"

    "What did you just say?" Ling Feiyue asked curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I mean to say, are you certain that you want to fight on your own for the second battle? It may be dangerous for you."

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "Yeah! I am a great saintess too, Ji Yuan. Even before I know you, I''ve been through plenty of dangers and trials. If I am only depending on you or the others, then I won''t be able to breakthrough in my cultivation. Besides¡­"

    She had turned to look at Chu Lixue with a smile, "I like to have a littlepetition with Maiden Chu Lixue here."

    Chu Lixue was smiling divinely, "You are a worthy rival. I will also fight alone for the 3rd round of battle."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "What are the two of you talking about?"

    Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue were both smiling mysteriously and did not answer Ji Yuan; it was because the two of them had fought together in a life and death battle in the Demonic Divine Realm and had even gained their sword domain at the same time.

    They had the utmost respect for each other and the two of you are not just sword saintesses but half-step sword immortals too.

    Chu Lixue smiled to Ling Feiyue, "You are more aplished than I am when I was at your age."

    Ling Feiyue looked a little flustered as she lowered her head, "But you are more beautiful and Ji Yuan looks at you more than me."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "Am I that sort of a person? I love the both of you equally!"

    Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue both said at the same time, "We know that you are lying! And you love your Jiajia more than us because you keep talking about her!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why can''t I please them with mere ttering?

    -

    -

    -

    The second round of battle had started.

    This time round, there was no extra time for the teams since they had a full day to n their strategies.

    Ling Feiyue had stepped gracefully into the battle arena.

    The primeval monster that was spawn this time was an ugly winged raptor with many spikes on its back.

    It was also as big as the primeval monster at the first round of battle and this was also a powerful 7th rank beast.

    Ling Feiyue had disyed her sword spirit and also her new divine sword that Ji Yuan had given her in the Demonic Divine Realm; it was an emperor-step divine sword.

    She smiled as she mustered the profound force of her Six Realms Divine Art into her profound aura before she disyed her Flying Spirit Sword Art the Thousand Raining Swords as dozens over dozens of profound swords began to form around her in multiple circles.

    As the 7th rank beast attacked her, Ling Feiyue was also attacking with her a flying stance forward.

    But instead of her usual Thousand Raining Swords, she had also disyed her sword domain to cause her Thousand Raining Swords to be extremely lethal.

    "Sword domain¡­ Six Realms Raining Swords!"

    Hundreds of profound swords pierced onto the armor of this 7th rank beast before exploding its profound energies; this poor 7th rank beast did not even how it was killed or where Ling Feiyue was.

    Ling Feiyue lightly tiptoed on the ground as she slowly sheathed the emperor-step divine sword.

    She whispered to herself: Thank you, Ji Yuan, for your sword¡­

    When Ji Yuan had given her this emperor-step divine sword, he had told her although her killing field was wide but without a powerful divine sword, the killing effectiveness of her sword domain would be limited against the same cultivation realm opponents.

    Above her, the Trial Spirit had also announced. "Champion Ling Feiyue wins. 3 Points are rewarded for the team."

 Chapter 887 Aftermath Of The 2nd Battle (1)

    ?

    When Ling Feiyue had finished her fight in the battle arena and was back to her team, Ji Yuan had rushed to her to hug her tightly.

    "Feiyue¡­"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "What is wrong with you? Is my sword domain strong?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Strong, strong!"

    Ling Feiyue hummed as she pushed him away, "Lies!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he went after her.

    Chu Lixue simply smiled to Ling Feiyue, "Not bad. Next is my turn."

    The two of them had actually seen each other trump cards already but they were stillpeting for a beautiful finish.

    Ling Feiyue had actually acquired her sword spirit in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she was not quite a sword saintess whenpared to Ji Yuan or Chu Lixue.

    But when she had acquired her sword domain in the Demonic Divine Realm, she was now considered to be a true sword saintess now even though she had not passed the cleansing of the sword saint spirit.

    That was why her sword y was still focus on profound power rather than the ruthless sword energies that were being disyed by Ji Yuan or Chu Lixue.

    Xiao Muhan asked Chu Lixue nervously, "Erm, so it is our turn next?"

    He was referring to Bu Danwang and himself.

    He had heard of Ling Feiyue the Dark Mistress'' renown but he had never heard of the renown of the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    Chu Lixue winked divinely at Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang, "Yes, it is up to the 3 of us now for the third fight."

    Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang were both muttering, "This is going to be a hard fight¡­"

    For the sake of impressing such a coquettish and divine maiden like Chu Lixue who was always smiling coyly, they were forced to ept their manly tribtions in this trial.

    After all, it was their turn next and they had the benefits of numbers.

    But Ji Yuan knows that numbers actually did not really matter when fighting against a powerful profound monster, especially a 7th rank profound monster.

    He also knows that his Senior Sister Chu Lixue had no intention to involve Xiao Muhan or Bu Danwang in the 3rd round of battle but he had kept quiet about this; he just enjoyed the frightful look that was on Xiao Muhan.

    Well Brother Xiao Muhan, you shouldn''t have joined the trial in the first ce. I''m sure that Divine Consort Sun Dingjun would be willing to move the spirit contract with you if I ask her to do so and you don''t have to join the trial as a champion. But I know that you are just trying to impress Maiden Flower Ju. You are just so lucky that you got me to cover for you or you''d have died 10 times over.

    -

    -

    -

    In the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were pleased that Ling Feiyue had ovee her battle.

    But it was not the only thing that pleased them.

    It was because there were also Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong that were also fighting their other battles too.

    As Zhi Jiugong was their Ancient Matriarch of their celestial sect, naturally they were rooting for her.

    Zhi Jiugong had disyed her zither as her divine weapon and as she whirled around the profound beast that she was fighting and her music seemed to have caused a disturbing annoyance to it.

    But her annoying music soon turned into multiple bursts of profound energies as it exploded upon the profound beast, attacking its inflexible points.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    The profound beast tried to attack Zhi Jiugong but it would always miss; it was because it already got confused and it was not even attacking the true position where she was.

    Needless to say, the profound beast was slowly being ughtered by Zhi Jiugong.

    As for Shui Xisi, she was much more direct.

    She simply rushed headlong into the profound beast with her profound aura and sundered it apart with her power profound attack.

    As the sister of Saintess Fang Zhenfei or Xia Jiajia, they were both the true daughters of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, the former ruler of the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm.

    And like her sister, she too possessed the phoenix bloodline and several trump cards that she would not use unless she had no other choice.

    A mere 7th rank profound beast was definitely just a y for her.

    As for the Lovely Empress, like Zhi Jiugong, they were both the core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Death God Mingwang and she was not weak, especially since she was a peaked great saintess. Moreover, she her talent was stronger than even her Senior Sister Zhi Jiugong.

    With just a dozen punches with her heaven-step divine sword, she had already wounded the 7th rank profound beast that she was fighting with, into a panic.

    Her loveliness was like the divine smile of the Smiling Divine Maiden, it did not cease even when the 7th rank profound beast was in a rage.

    Instead, she had gracefully ughtered the profound beast with a most coyly look manner as though she was just an innocent maiden.

    The second round of battle saw many teams winning.

    It was mainly because there were much more stronger champions in the second battle and also because many of them were great saints and great saintess.

    ? of the champions were actually spiritas champions and they were not the 7th Spirit Realm; so the battle was actually hard for them against a 7th rank profound beast.

    Although they were stronger than a same cultivation realm celestial champion but the difference between a 6th and 7th cultivation realm were like heaven and the earth.

    The same could be said too for the middle-tier saints and the great saint level. The disparity between these two small boundaries were actually like the heavens and the earth, with the great saint being twice as powerful in their profound attacks.

    That was a reason why even Ling Feiyue could not master her most powerful Flying Spirits Sword until she could be a great saintess. Many of the most powerful and secretive profound arts of a celestial sect have to wait until they could be the great sacred saint level in order to have a chance toprehend its cultivation mysteries.

    There were still ? of the great saints that got killed during the second round of battle though.

    It was because even among the great saints, there were still a huge disparity between their cultivation and martial strengths.

    But most teams with at least a great saint was able to ovee their second battle easily.

    Shui Xisi, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were all peaked great saintesses and they were all powerhouses among the seventh sacred saint level. Fighting against a powerful 7th rank profound beast may be difficult to one normal saint cultivator or even a normal great saint but it was all too easy for them.

    Even though Ji Yuan was restricted to only seeing his own team battle and could not see the other maidens'' battles but he was confident that his Senior Sister Chu Lixue would be able to win the next battle easily, unless it was different.

    Xu Yifei noticed that Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were showing particr interest in some of the battle imageries so she asked curiously, "You know them?"

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "Yeah! Some of them are with Ji Yuan too!"

    Tang Manni and the other divine consorts had also overheard Yu Jingjing.

    There was a look of envious in the eyes of Xu Yifei and the other divine consorts.

    Xu Yifei smiled gently, "They are really very beautiful maidens. How I envy them..."

 Chapter 888 Aftermath Of The 2nd Battle (2)

    ?

    After Ling Feiyue had returned from her fight, she was once again chatting jovially with Ji Yuan and Chu Lixue again.

    Chu Lixue could see that Ji Yuan waspletely at ease with Ling Feiyue and he was extremely casual with her around.

    Moreover, she also noticed that Ling Feiyue had a good temperament and she had a noble bearing despite being an unorthodox cultivator.

    Chu Lixue was actually an orthodox celestial cultivator and her father was the White Sword Monarch; she was rebellious when young and had even gone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth on her own to look for her mother consort and never return.

    This act alone infuriated her father the White Sword Monarch so much that he went on many fruitless trips to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to try to bring her back.

    Although she had the most divine smile that could mesmerized most men but it was an act to put the men at ease and also to infuriate her father with her provocative behavior.

    But for Ling Feiyue, she had a most noble heavenly smile which was quite sincere.

    Ling Feiyue asked Ji Yuan, "So what do you think of my fight just now? Am I good?"

    "Just so and so." Ji Yuanughed as he tried to provoke a reaction from her.

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "I am actually better than Sword Saint Ji Yuan. So if I am so and so, then he must be even worse than me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am worse than you? Did you see my fight in the first battle?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "Nope. I can''t bear to watch your clumsy fight."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You obviously watch my fight because I saw your hands clenching tightly and you are anxious for me¡­

    "Ji Yuan, let me ask you. How is your trip in Snowy Pavilion City? Everyone been talking about you, even in my city-state. I want to hear what you have been through. How did you even be the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am actually more interested to know about you¡­"

    "Did you bang all the divine consorts in your city-state?" Ling Feiyue giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why did you ask me this? Of course, I didn''t! Don''t tell me that you don''t believe me?"

    Ling Feiyue shook her head as she looked at Chu Lixue, "Is he telling the truth?"

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "Honestly, I do not know."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Of course I didn''t¡­"

    "That is a little disappointing." Ling Feiyue interrupted him with a heavy sigh.

    Ji Yuanughed, "You should be d that I didn''t. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue sighed even heavily, "That is because I''ve told my Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang that you did bang all the divine consorts in your city-state."

    "You did what?!" Ji Yuan almost wanted to faint on the spot.

    "Hey! Don''t look at me like this. My great divine consort wants some information from you so I am giving her your information. Don''t forget that I''m on a trial here and I am trying to earn my Trust Points with her." Ling Feiyue giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "So, you have decided to sell my information away and¡­ make up along the way."

    Ling Feiyue raised her fingers to shake gently in front of Ji Yuan, "You are wrong, my lord. I did sell your information but I didn''t make up along the way. That''s what everyone been saying throughout the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad."

    Then she looked at Chu Lixue with a naughty look before looking at Ji Yuan, "You really have a bad record track in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    When she had said that, even the Smiling Divine Maiden ceased her smiles and looked shyly away.

    Even Ji Yuan was looking quite awkwardly, "No, I really didn''t bang any of the divine consorts!"

    Ling Feiyue asked, "Not even the Goddess Ai Tina?"

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan frowned.

    Ling Feiyue looked at Ji Yuan intently, "Not even peeping at them?"

    Ji Yuan had actually seen Xu Yifei naked twice over and he was now stammering, "Erm¡­ no¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "My lord. You are lying!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck does she know when my heartbeat is so calm?!

    Ling Feiyue then curiously asked, "Why don''t you tell me about your fight with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Why do you want to know about my battle with her? There is nothing interesting about it. Hahaha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "That is because Hua Yunzi had told me that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was going to Snowy Pavilion City to look for you. I was so worried for you. Surely you owe me an ounting?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled, "Erm, Maiden Hua Yunzi is with you?"

    He had suddenly remembered his wet dreams with her¡­

    Ling Feiyue nodded, "We are both champions of the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang. That is why she had informed me about you."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Well your messagees toote and you don''t have to worry anymore. I am still alive after my fight with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue was alsoughing softly, "Actually, I didn''t send you any message to warn you. Hehe¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly, "Haha¡­ why?"

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "Because that is already toote. Once she knows where you are, you are almost to be dead. So, I am actually preparing to be a widow. But I have never thought that you will be alive."

    Ji Yuanughed bitterly, "Hahaha¡­ because I am really a strong cultivator¡­"

    The fight with Number 1 still freaked him; Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was really the most powerful cultivator that Ji Yuan had ever fought and she was even unscathed after battling so many rounds with him.

    It was a miracle that he was still alive.

    Actually, he knows that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had been suppressing her cultivation realm to fight him fairly but the truth was, in a real fight, he may not be an equal to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she winked at him, "I actually have more faith in your beautiful looks. So is that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao a pretty maiden or not?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He tried to change the topic by asking, "Erm, have you seen Mo Bei, Qin Shuang, Sisi, Zhi Jiugong or the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu so far?"

    Ling Feiyue shook her head, "I didn''t see them yet so I''m not sure if they are champions or not."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "Hopefully they are not champions in here. The trials here looked a little screwed up in my personal opinion."

    Ling Feiyue asked gently, "You are worried for them?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Yeah. I am."

    Chu Lixue smiled, "I am not so worried about my sisters Zhi Jiugong and Lu Jiangsu. They are much stronger than you need. You should worry about Shui Xisi instead."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "This, you are wrong. I am not worried about Sisi at all. To her, taking the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is like taking a stroll. She is only here to y."

    At the Goddess Star Pce, he was quite stunned when Shui Xisi had disyed a true divinity sword (See Chapter 669).

    Unless Shui Xisi''s opponent was another immortal like Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, he was not worried; mere great saints would not be able to handle her.

    But he was soon sighing softly, "I miss the 3 of them too¡­"

 Chapter 889 The Third Round Of Battle (1)

    ?

    The next day, Ji Yuan was still chatting with Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue as they shared many memories and jokes together.

    But after today, he would have to be parted from Ling Feiyue and that was why for the past 2 days, he did not even take a break to cultivate.

    After all, cultivation was not as important as spending time with Ling Feiyue or with Chu Lixue!

    Moreover, he would receive 2 days of break after today''s battle anyway and also he could feel he had already regained his profound strength passively.

    The little parasite worm in his inner spiritual sea was not lying to him that it would be helpful.

    The Trial Spirit announced, "The third battle starts soon. May the champions please be prepared for your next round of battle."

    Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang were both preparing to fight in the next round of battle when Chu Lixue had suddenly stood up and said to them, "I shall fight the next round of battle alone."

    This startled Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang.

    "How can we allow Maiden Chu Lixue to go alone?" Bu Danwang was startled.

    Even Xiao Muhan was saying, "This won''t do. We are not cowards¡­"

    Even though Xiao Muhan was aware that Chu Lixue was a stronger cultivator than he was as evidenced from thest trial but this was just limited to only thest trial; he had no idea how strong Chu Lixue truly was as he had rejoined Ji Yuan''s party only just recently.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue lookedpletely frail and vulnerable. Moreover, she was also such a coyly looking maiden whose divine smiles touched the hearts of Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang. Even if she wants them to tank for her, they would be willing to do so in the face such an extremely coyly beautiful maiden.

    But Chu Lixue smiled to them and she had already walked to the entrance of the portal that led to the battle arena, "No need. Just stay here and watch me."

    Xiao Muhan was about to stop her when Ji Yuan stopped him by catching hold of his shoulder, "It is alright. Let her go."

    "Ji Yuan! Do you know what you are saying? We are two men here and you are allowing your beloved to fight alone?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why didn''t I see you saying the same thing to me when my beloved Feiyue is going to the battle arena?"

    Ling Feiyue was frowning behind Ji Yuan as though she was asking the same too.

    Xiao Muhanughed awkwardly, "Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue is renowned as a top unorthodox cultivator in our Deste Celestial Fraternity. That''s why. Haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned with some suspicions as he gave a warning, "You''ve better not have any funny ideas on Maiden Chu Lixue. She is my beloved. If you dare to green me, I will make sure you pay dearly for it even if you are my best friend."

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "I think you are overreacting."

    Bu Danwang behind Xiao Muhan had broken in a cold sweat; it was because he could feel Ji Yuan looking at him as well, seemingly warning him not to have any funny ideas on either Chu Lixue or Ling Feiyue.

    He began to nod nonstop and was even trembling; this Ji Yuan was too strong for him to make an enemy with and he did not want any troubles, especially against a powerhouse cultivator with two emperor-step divine swords.

    Secretly he was thinking: This team is too crazy¡­ I have seen 3 emperor-step divine swords in just this team alone. Even in my entire celestial fraternity, I don''t think I can even see a single cultivator with an emperor-step divine sword¡­ I didn''t even see a single cultivator with an emperor-step divine sword in the entire Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth except for this team¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The Smiling Divine Maiden had walked into the battle arena and the dark apparition of her opponent could suddenly be seen; it looked eerily like the dark apparition of the Goddess Ai Tina!

    She was actually not wrong to think so.

    It was because the Goddess Ai Tina had indeed created a dark apparition of herself at the 7th cultivation realm for the third round of battle.

    When the dark apparitions of the Goddess Ai Tina had appeared, there were startled surprises from all the divine consorts in the Divine Temples and the colosseums.

    "The champions are fighting against our Goddess Ai Tina?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "This is only an apparition¡­ so it should be weaker¡­"

    "This trial is so interesting¡­"

    "It is heretic to lift a finger against our Goddess Ai Tina¡­"

    "It seems that the third round of battle will not be easy at all¡­"

    The Trial Spirit had suddenly announced, "May the battle starts now."

    The third round of battle simultaneously started among the many champions against the apparition of the Goddess Ai Tina.

    For Chu Lixue, her apparition attacker had already raised 4 shadow talismans that flew in her direction.

    Usually for spirit talismans, it was hard to miss but weirdly, Chu Lixue was able to evade through the spirit talismans as it exploded around her.

    But before she could close in to the apparition attacker, the spirit talismans had exploded again but in a wider area!

    This startled Chu Lixue as she was flung from where she was and she had to raise her divine sword to defend herself.

    "These spirit talismans can explode again?!"

    Many of the champions that were fighting, even the divine consorts and the spectors that were watching were all startled that the spirit talismans could explode again; it means that there would be 8 profound explosions that would be caused by these 4 spirit talismans!

    Chu Lixue was also startled because she was caught unaware by it.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was clenching his fists tightly as he watched the battle imagery¡­

    Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang were both startled; they could imagine themselves blowing apart by the 8 profound explosions and even losing their limbs!

    Ji Yuan had experienced the profound power of these spirit talismans before from the Goddess Ai Tina.

    He did not exactly experience against it as the Goddess Ai Tina was not using her spirit talismans against him. But he knows that the secondary explosions of these spirit talismans were several times greater than the initial ones.

    But luckily, the secondary profound explosions of these spirit talismans were only twice as powerful and not as powerful as the real Goddess Ai Tina but it was still enough to seriously wound or kill any cultivator that was below the 7th cultivation realm.

    Even for a 7th cultivation realm cultivator, they would not possibly withstand so many profound impacts from these profound explosions before their profound aura was depleted.

    Ji Yuan knows that even though his senior sister was able to evade profound attacks better than him but she could not evade these random profound explosions that covered a wide area of coverage without depleting her profound aura.

    It was not just Chu Lixue that was fighting hard now but many of the champions were even struggling to fight the apparitions of the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Chu Lixue quickly disyed a burst of sword energies upon the apparition attacker after she had blocked off the explosions but the apparition attack had a defense spirit talisman that was readied and her sword energy attack had bounded off harmlessly.

    At the same time, the apparition attacker had also flickered two more spirit talismans in her direction!

    The attacking speed of the apparition attacker was simply too fast!

    Chu Lixue sped off quickly but the spirit talismans were even able to change course to follow her before exploding over her again, and then exploding again!

    4 bursts of profound explosions had almost urred at the same time on Chu Lixue!

    Ji Yuan had broken into a cold sweat as he started to curse this trial, "I know there must be a catch somewhere with this easy trial. Senior sister, don''t die¡­"

 Chapter 890 The Third Round Of Battle (2)

    ?

    Amidst the four explosive burst of profound energies that were caused by 2 merely spirit talismans, Chu Lixue had emerged from it with her ultra sword spirit as she shed toward the apparition.

    The apparition was actually about to ready 4 spirit talismans to attack when it saw Chu Lixue shing toward it, so it only readied 2 spirit talisman while readying a spirit defense talisman to deflect any attacks.

    Ling Feiyue who was watching the battle gasped to Ji Yuan, "Maiden Chu Lixue has gained the ultra sword spirit too? The same as you? What have the two of you been doing?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Nothing. We learnt it independently. Haha¡­"

    But his attention was actually fully on the fight inside the battle arena.

    Then he was gasping all of a sudden; it was because his senior sister had suddenly emerged from the explosive burst of profound energies with a sword aura!

    She has learnt how to use a sword aura too?!

    Indeed.

    Just when Chu Lixue had used her ultra sword spirit, her profound aura had also undergone a surprising change and it had evolved into a sword aura; this was a surprising development for her as well.

    She wasted no time for her counter-attack as she gathered all her sword intentions to form into her unique sword domain as she shed to the apparition before she swept her divine sword as hues of blue profound sword energies exploded around her, severing even the attacking spirit talismans above her as it exploded harmlessly away from her.

    At the same time the inertia barrier that was created by the defensive spirit talisman of the apparition was also prated by her sword domain and the apparition was dematerialized by her fierce profound attack.

    The name of her sword domain was actually called the Divine Steps Swords; originally it was actually weaker than even Ji Yuan''s Flying Swords Domain but it was a sustainable sword domain.

    Although Ling Feiyue''s sword domain the Six Realms Flying Swords was also much more powerful than her Divine Steps Swords but it could only be used only once.

    For Chu Lixue, the Divine Steps Swords perfectly bended the use of fighting style and it was also able to greatly empower the profound power of her sword strikes and to leave behind an illusionary profound blue light that could also confuse her opponent.

    With her ultra sword spirit and sword aura, the profound power of her Divine Steps Swords was now twice as powerful than the first time she had used this sword domain!

    In fact, her ultra sword spirit was able to perfectly bend in with her Divine Steps Swords that this sword domain was now more powerful than Ji Yuan''s Flying Sword Domain now.

    It was not wrong to say that she had received a beneficial upgrade to her sword domain from this round of battle!

    The Trial Spirit announced, "Champion Chu Lixue wins the round. 3 Points will be rewarded to your team¡­"

    "Your team has scored 9 Points in total but there is a 1 Point penalty, so you have scored 8 Points in total. This is still apletion so you will be allowed to go to the third trial¡­"

    "You have 30 minutes to say your farewells to your team¡­"

    Chu Lixue was panting softly after she had killed the apparition but she continued to disy a divine smile as she slowly walked back to the battle arena.

    Her sword domain required her continuous profound strength to sustain with her sword intentions so it was actually quite a tiring profound sword art.

    At the colosseum where the White Sword Monarch was, he looked quite moved as he muttered. "I have never though that this daughter of mine will be able to disy a much more powerful sword spirit at her cultivation realm. This is so unexpected. And also, like Ji Yuan, she is able to disy a sword aura. She is indeed worthy of being my daughter¡­"

    As Chu Lixue returned to the waiting area, Ji Yuan had immediately hugged her all of a sudden.

    "Senior sister, you are back!"

    Chu Lixue chuckled, "What? You think that I will lose?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; Indeed, he had thought so for a while.

    "You are actually able to disy a sword aura?"

    He was really startled because it was not easy for him to figure out how to manifest his sword aura and every sword cultivator was different so there was no way for him to teach Chu Lixue how to realize her sword aura at the seventh cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan was already considered to be a genius sword cultivator when he could realize his sword aura at the low seventh cultivation realm. But he had not thought that it was possible for his senior sister to do the same too.

    Even Ling Feiyue was startled by her sword aura as she curiously added, "How did you gain your sword aura?"

    Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "I actually do not know. It just happens. Maybe it is because these spirit talismans triggered something in me and I need something to defend myself against it. Or maybe it is because it is long overdue for me."

    She was a peaked great saintess with a solid cultivation and this trial may be the cultivation breakthrough that she needed to realize her full potential.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "Or maybe it is Ji Yuan that inspires me."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "How can it be me?"

    Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue were quietly smiling; Actually, Ji Yuan has affected them more than he thinks.

    Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang had hastily approached Chu Lixue as well.

    "Maiden Lixue, d that you''re alright¡­"

    "This is such a difficult fight¡­"

    They looked grateful and was even astonished that Chu Lixue was way stronger than they thought she was.

    Due to Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue, the two of them had cleared the second trial without doing anything.

    It was no wonder why Xiao Muhan and Bu Danwang were both looking quite grateful and they also shivered to think of the consequences if they were in one of the three battles. They wondered if they were able to survive the fight or not.

    But for Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Chu Lixue, they were true cultivators and they sought challenges to improve upon their cultivation strength.

    Ji Yuan totally understood this and that was why he did not stop them from fighting or even Xiao Muhan from joining in the trial as a champion. To a cultivator, they had to face the life and death cmities often in order to better their own cultivation strength.

    Although Ji Yuan did not like to cultivate, he was actually a true cultivator in other aspects. It is because a cultivator can only cultivate this much before they will have reached a blocker and have to find another mean to ovee their cultivation blocker.

    As for Ji Yuan, he is the practical cultivator that prefers to cumtive experiences.

    That is also the reason why even though he isn''t a genius in cultivating or have any cultivation resources, he is able to advance so quickly in his cultivation realm.

    But Ji Yuan is not the norm of the cultivators and the path that he has chosen is unique to himself so that he can bezy but yet he isn''t the type that shy away from dangers or fighting.

    Ji Yuan was now sighing to Chu Lixue and Ling Feiyue, "Now we have only 30 minutes before we have to part."

    Chu Lixue smiled, "We are in the same team so you must be referring to Maiden Ling Feiyue. Shameless!"

    Ling Feiyue shyly looked away while Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    Ji Yuan said to Ling Feiyue, "Feiyue, take care for your other 3 trials while I am not around you."

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "I should say this to you instead. Do I look like a clumsy cultivator whenpared to you?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I will be a clumsy cultivator?"

    Ling Feiyue was obviously referring to the events 100 years ago, "What do you think?"

    She was smiling when she had remembered how Ji Yuan had fallen into Xue Qianxue''s bathtub 100 years ago.

    Ji Yuan frowned, pretending not to understand Ling Feiyue.

    "Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan had remembered how he had treated Ling Feiyue like a bitter love rival 100 years ago and he had not thought that the two of you would be together 100 yearster due to another chance meeting.

    Now the two of them were almost inseparable.

    To be honest, Ling Feiyue, Xiang Li and Bai Qianfeng were the 3 that were his constantpanions for the past 1 year often.

 Chapter 891 The Second Trial Is Over!

    ?

    The Trial Spirit soon announced, "Out of the 330 Champions that are fighting in the battle arena, there are 25 teams out of 55 teams that have made it through to the third trial¡­"

    "However due to a special rule, 100 champions will be selected from the losing teams to go to the third trial¡­"

    "All in all, there are 220 champions that have made it through to the third trial¡­"

    "As in the first trial, the champions that have failed to qualify will be removed from your city-state arena to go back to your respective Divine Temple¡­"

    "You shall all return to your city-state arena now for 2 days of rest now."

    With that, multiple shes of light began to warp everyone away.

    Ji Yuan and Ling Feiyue held their hands together for onest time¡­

    "Feiyue, farewell¡­"

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "Farewell, my romantic lord Ji Yuan¡­"

    A heartbroken Ji Yuan had returned to the arena where the other champions of his city-state was.

    He looked even a little depressed after separating from Ling Feiyue.

    Although they were all in the same trial together but it was like they were being separated by a wall, preventing them from being together.

    Chu Lixue saw how affectionate Ling Feiyue was and the weight that she upied in Ji Yuan''s heart.

    Over the past 3 days, she could see that Ling Feiyue could talk about everything to Ji Yuan and even mud slinging him but Ji Yuan was not upset. Likewise, Ji Yuan also could not provoke Ling Feiyue because she was not the jealous type.

    In fact, Ling Feiyue even looked disappointed that Ji Yuan was not with the other divine consorts or even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    "What a waste of your beautiful looks," she giggled to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had pretended to feel offend, "What? You think that I am a duck and I will sell myself?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "It is no wonder that you can''t swim."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course I can swim. I can hold my breath."

    "You sure that counts?"

    "Don''t forget that I once swim after Maiden Feng Minyue. So, I do know how to swim." Ji Yuan insisted rather forcefully.

    "Alright then. So you are a duck can sell yourself to the other beautiful maidens." Ling Feiyue giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Their conversations were full of teases and funny remarks.

    Chu Lixue was really surprised because Ling Feiyue had once told all the other maidens during their gossips that she actually could not stand Ji Yuan when they were doing their trials together.

    And that Ji Yuan had even made her cry rather so bitterly that she had left him in tears when they were in a tavern together.

    At that time, Ji Yuan was only trying to drive away Ling Feiyue by causing her to be heartbroken or be upset with him because he did not want to involve her in a life and death fight against the powerful Celestial Orthodox Sect to rescue Xue Qianxue alone.

    It did not make any sense to Ji Yuan to make use of a maiden to fulfill his own selfish desire.

    Moreover, at that time, he had thought that he was already a dying man and he had also a pending life and death duel with the ''Hundred Flowers Divine Pce''.

    So, when he had discovered that Ling Feiyue had developed an affection for him, he decided not to return this affection at all but chosen to hurt her as much as possible to cause her to hate him forever.

    That was also thest time that they had actually ''quarreled''.

    That quarrel back then was extremely awkward to Ji Yuan because he had actually met Ling Feiyueter and realized that she had the same objective as himself and that was to rescue her best friend, Xue Qianxue.

    He almost banged his head because he had never thought that they were the best of friends as they were from two opposing celestial sects.

    The secret duel 100 years ago between the two saintesses was never a life and death duel in the first ce when Ji Yuan had chanced upon it; it was actually a friendly duel.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Although Ji Yuan screwed up everything, it resulted in Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue putting their opposing celestial sectarian ideologies differences aside, to be the best of friends.

    After all, they were both feeling guilty of trying to frame Ji Yuan just to see what he really looked like behind his beard.

    100 years ago, they were actually the fans of some of his poems and had heard plenty of things about him. It was not because they like him but they had heard that he got a beautiful face behind his beard and that was why they had setup a prank against him.

    It was just a prank that had gone horribly wrong as Ji Yuan was not following any of their nned scripts and he had actually run away to breakthrough to the saint cultivation realm.

    When they had heard this news, they were both horrified because Ji Yuan was a poor cultivator that could not afford the vast cultivation resources to be a holy saint

    The two of them wanted to make amends to him by providing him with the cultivation resources but he had already disappeared.

    That was also the reason why they had put a bounty to look for him.

    Naturally this was all told to them by Xia Jiajia who had also mysteriously disappeared afterward.

    They had all thought that Ji Yuan had run away because of the heavy guilt in his heart for witnessing their duel and also because he had offended the two saintesses.

    But the truth was, Ji Yuan can''t be bothered with them and he was only interested to make Jiajia fulfill her pledge for him.

    Although their swordy ranking was superior to them, it was not to say that they would be able to kill Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had actually killed or defeated many cultivators that have a higher sword ranking than him and that was why he was able to cause his inferior sword art to be in the top 100 for a while.

    As a sword saint, he is quite fearless and have plenty of guts. A superior sword y may be hard for him to beat but Ji Yuan is a persistent sword cultivator that would sooner orter find a way to exploit the weakness of his opponent.

    And he is really good with a sword rather than just being a great poet.

    But he did not want the troubles and the powers behind that were behind Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue toe after him or he would never have a break from fighting or resting.

    And he was not even interested in cultivating for his breakthrough either since he was only trying to trick Xia Jiajia to be with him for, he had said to her, "Whether I seed or not, will you wait for me for a 100 years?"

    This was a low trick that was used by many cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and Ji Yuan actually did not expect for Xia Jiajia to agree to wait for him.

    So, he had to suck his thumb and really disappeared for 100 years.

    If Xia Jiajia had rejected him at that time, he may not even disappear for 100 years; It was never the real reason why he had disappeared for 100 years in the first ce due to offending Ling Feiyue or Xue Qianxue in the first ce.

    Also, at the time, he had already sessfully counter-killed the leader of the ck Hand Guild, who was a saint cultivator after being pursued for assassinations over dozens of years. At that time, Ji Yuan was only a sixth realm golden supremacy and he had to cross arge boundary in cultivation realm to make this kill. One could imagine how hard it had been.

    But once he was familiar with his opponent''s profound arts, the hunted had be the hunter instead.

    That was also the reason why when Ji Yuan saw the way Ji Hao, Li Ye and Jin Yuyun had fought against a weak fifth rank profound beast, he was frowning mad that they were so much weaker than him at the same cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan actually considered himself to be the Number 1 top cultivator under the 7th cultivation realm because even Jin Yilong who was a saint was weaker than him.

    At no point of the time, he was even fearful of Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue even though they were superior cultivators than him as he considered having an inferior sword art to stall their superior sword art, was the ultimate insult to their prides.

    He was really disappointed that he did not have the chance to witness the real duel between Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue so that he would have the chance to get familiar with their sword arts.

    Although Ji Yuan liked to show off his divine sword but many of his opponents have forgotten how deadly Sword Saint Ji Yuan was with just a precious sword.

    And he was also a cultivator that had gone through countless number of trials without disying any fear.

    But this time, he was actually a little fearful.

    It was something about this Spiritas Tower that gave him a feeling of wrong.

    Right now, Ji Yuan could not finger why it was so but this got nothing to do with the Goddess Ai Tina.

    And he was worried for Ling Feiyue as well as the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi and Zhi Jiugong as well.

 Chapter 892 The Profound Darkness Within The Spiritas Tower

    ?

    In the Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina was in panic and so did the rest of the immortal divine consorts like Tang Li; it was because they had all coughed out golden blood!

    The 24 immortal divine consorts that were watching by the side were all startled and were panicky.

    "Goddess Ruler Ai Tina! Are you alright?"

    "What is going on here?"

    "This is a backsh?"

    "Impossible¡­ what is causing this?"

    It was because the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly lost control of the soul core of the Spiritas Tower and she was greatly startled as she held weakly onto her heaving breasts.

    "Profound darkness¡­ this is the profound darkness that has suddenly appeared in our profound arrays¡­ it attacks us¡­"

    Tang Li was gasping with shock, "What is going on here?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina quietly said, "Summon Immortal Divine Lord Achilles immediately. I need his divine consult."

    Immediately one of the immortal divine consorts answered, "Let me go and fetch the Immortal Divine Lord Achilles."

    Then she said to the other immortal divine consorts, "We have been too careless. I am careless. At first, I thought that this may be my fault for unable to properly seize control over the Spiritas Tower. But I am so wrong¡­"

    "The Spiritas Tower is divided into 5 floors. The first two floors are easier for us to manage but the 3rd, 4th and 5th floor contain the more powerful profound darkness which only the Supreme Divine Gods could control because there were 6 of them¡­"

    "But for us, we are unable to contain the profound darkness that is within the Spiritas Tower¡­ I doubt that even Achilles can contain it because I have found residues of the profound arrays that are left behind by the Supreme Divine Gods to fully control the Spiritas Tower."

    Tang Li was startled, "What is this profound darkness that is inside the Spiritas Tower?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina was quiet for a while as she weakly continued to read from their profound arrays, "I do not really know. But it seems to be a nefarious being that is contained by the Supreme Divine Gods. Now that they are no longer around, it is difficult for us to contain it.¡­"

    She had suddenly remembered that Xu Yifei had once told her that she had sensed profound darkness during her ascension and that was why she had hesitated. It seemed to her now that this profound darkness was actually the one that she had sensed.

    Tang Li said weakly as golden blood drooled from the side of her lips, "If we stop the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower then we can contain this profound darkness, right?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina said bitterly, "This is a good solution but unfortunately, we have already lost control of the Spiritas Tower. This Spiritas Tower seems to have a sentient conscious on its own now."

    Tang Li was shocked, "Then what may happen to the champions that are inside the Spiritas Tower?"

    The Goddess Ai Tina said weakly, "The dead champions shall be recycled to feed this profound darkness thing. As for the champions that are alive, I do not know. It is because the Spiritas Tower is now deciding on their fates now and we have no control over it anymore. We can only watch for now¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    For the next 2 days, Ji Yuan had spent his time chatting with Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan.

    There were 22 other champions that have survived the second trial, one of them was Old Yang Batian the champion of Ding Jie''Er.

    Old Yang Batian merely chuckled to Ji Yuan when he had appeared in the arena, "Why am I not surprise to see you again, Brother Ji Yuan. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed too but he quickly returned to his own group which consisted of only Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan.

    In the past few days, Chu Lixue was the only maiden that was with Ji Yuan and while she was with him, she had developed an attachment to him that caused her heart to falter when she did not see him.

    She did not think that she would trust a man so much, especially to a man that tried to destroy her Bliss City.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand had fully regained his profound strength and he was quite impressed by the little parasite worm inside his inner spiritual sea.

    He said to Anyang and Xiang Li: This parasite worm sure is impressive.

    Anyang said weaky: It is a spirit nt and not a worm.

    Xiang Li giggled: It is a divine tree and not a spirit nt.

    Ji Yuanughed as he dered: Worm, nt or tree, it doesn''t matter. We should give it a name instead.

    The Hundred zing Rose looked delighted: Mas¡­master is going to give me a name? Woah!

    Ji Yuan answered: Right! I shall give you a proper name. Everyone has a name and you should have a name as well.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: So, the name of this divine tree is Worm?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li asked: Not Worm? Is it Parasite then?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned: Xiang Li, you ae really bad at naming. I actually want to name this parasite worm as Maggot.

    Anyang: ¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose was delighted as it struggled to speak amidst its excitement: Woah! This sounds¡­like a great name! So, from now onward¡­I am called Mag¡­got!"

    Anyang interrupted: No, your new name shall be Aura.

    Ji Yuan frowned: We don''t know if this thing is a maiden or a man yet¡­

    The Hundred zing Rose giggled: I am a¡­ maiden.

    Ji Yuan began to frown with a plenty of disbelief: Are you sure about this?

    The Hundred zing Rose asked curiously, "Mas¡­ master, you can''t tell from my naked look?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck can I tell?! You''re just a nt!

    Anyang giggled: Aura is a maiden. I am certain.

    Xiang Li was also giggling: That''s right. Aura is a maiden.

    Ji Yuan frowned: How the heck can the two of you able to tell?!

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, you can examine her soul core and you can tell. It is really simple.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, I am not a spirit entity like you¡­.

    But he quickly announced: Alright then. Aura shall be your name from now onward.

    The Hundred zing Rose cried: But¡­ master¡­ I like the name Mag¡­got¡­

    Ji Yuan said bitterly: Aura is a better name. Maggot is a preposterous name actually. Hahaha¡­

    Then he added curiously: I am actually curious. Howe Aura can talk? I didn''t know that spirit nt can talk?

    Aura chuckled: I am¡­a¡­ divine tree!

    Ji Yuan weakly said: Alright then. Aura is a divine tree¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: She is really ancient. Millions of years old.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Tell me in term of my celestial age.

    Xiang Li and Anyang answered at the same time: Same as a 7 year old celestial maiden.

    Ji Yuan almost wanted to bang his head immediately.

    He said weakly to Aura: You know Aura. I am old enough to be your grand daddy¡­

 Chapter 893 Prelude To The Third Trial

    ?

    Now that the 2 days cultivation rest was nearing the rest, many of the champions were restless in the arena as they were all expecting for the trial spirit to make an announcement soon.

    Even Ji Yuan, Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan were waiting anxiously for the next trial to begin.

    Ji Yuan was frowning, "It should be time soon, right?"

    The profound voice of the Trial Spirit was suddenly heard again but this time, the non-gender voice sounded deeper as though it was now a different trial spirit.

    "It is now time for your third trial to start¡­"

    "There are 220 of you here. In the next trial, you will be seeded randomly into 55 teams of 4 each¡­"

    Many of the champions around Ji Yuan were muttering, "4 champions in each team? Our team seems to get smaller and smaller with every trial¡­"

    Almost all the champions were actually hoping for a bigger team as the first 2 trials had taught them to depend on each other for support.

    "¡­This trial shallst 4 days and you will be given 3 days break afterward¡­"

    The hearts of many champions sunk; it was because the longer the break, the hard was the trial!

    Moreover, this trial wouldst 4 days and it was longer than the first and second trial as well!

    "¡­You will all be warped to the new location in your seeded team first before the rules of the third trial will be made known to you¡­"

    When the Trial Spirit had announced this, shes of light beam forth to take away the champions simultaneously to their new location.

    Ji Yuan chuckled to Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan, "Haha. See you soon!"

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan was in the new location, he saw that he was in a small white arena and there was an entrance at the other end of this enclosed arena.

    But all of a sudden, he had a nked look when he saw that the other 3 champions were all men and he had recognized none of them; he was not with either Xiao Muhan or Chu Lixue!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''ve lost my senior sister¡­

    The other 3 champions were all looking burly and fierce looking; it seemed that they had plenty of fighting experience.

    Ji Yuan saw that they were all celestial champions as they all had a ck ring on them.

    The most burly man among them seemed to take charge by saying with a faint smile, "We should introduce ourselves first. I am Great Saint Zhao Gao¡­"

    Then he looked in the direction of Ji Yuan and smiled, "It seems that we have the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan with us."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I guess this saves me from introducing myself."

    That day just before he had entered the trial portal, he had already introduced himself in front of 300 celestials. Since this Zhao Gao knows him then he should be among the 300.

    "I am Sun Dashu, a middle-tier saint. May I know the cultivation realm of this Ji Yuan here?" He was actually ate joiner to this trial and he did not know Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Great Saint Ji Yuan."

    Sun Dashu smiled, "Great. We have 2 great saints in the team¡­"

    Then he appraised Ji Yuan for a little while, "I have heard of your renowned and it is really impressive that you can be famous in such a short time. I have some difficulty in impressing my divine consort in my city-state¡­"

    "Leave the chats toter," the third man said impolitely. "I am Great Saint Heng Wujian."

    Zhao Gao was not offended by the rude introduction as this was not the first time that he had encountered this.

    "Good! We have 3 great saints in the team. Not bad. We are a strong team."

    Sun Dashu raised his hands politely to Ji Yuan, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian, "May my cultivation seniors please look after me!"

    The Trial Spirit had suddenly announced, "You have 30 minutes to be introduced to each other before the rules of this trial will be exined¡­"

    Sun Dashuughed, "We have already been introduced to one another."

    Ji Yuan wasughing too, "Yeah! Haha¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Zhao Gao asked, "I wonder what the third trial will be?"

    "It is pointless to even specte about it." Again, it was Heng Wujian that had interrupted impolitely.

    Zhao Gao: ¡­

    Sun Dashu: ¡­

    It seemed to Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu and even Ji Yuan that this Heng Wujian was not a team yer at all and he was the solo type of cultivator.

    Zhao Gao did not say anything because this Heng Wujian was also a great saint cultivator and in order to be a great saint, he was considered either to be a genius cultivator or a blessed son of the heavens.

    Sun Dashu smiled to break the ice, "I wonder how the gathering of the Trust Points from everyone is going so far?"

    "You shouldn''t have asked that." Heng Wujian stared coldly at Sun Dashu.

    Sun Dashu had broken into a cold sweat at his sudden cold stare, "Yes, yes¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly asked with a chuckle, "I wonder have you all tried a spiritas maiden so far?"

    He had asked this question on purpose and half-expecting Heng Wujian to rebuke him coldly.

    In short, Ji Yuan was courting his own death!

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Sun Dashu looked extremely awkward while Zhao Gao was also feeling the same as well.

    Ji Yuan thought: I didn''t get a rebuke? Weird?

    So, he asked again, "You have never been to the brothels at all?"

    Heng Wujian, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao: ¡­

    They had not because they were trying to earn the Trust Points of their divine consorts and going to a brothel may ruin their trust with their divine consorts.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, I have. I quite like the spiritas maidens in this ce. Haha¡­"

    Heng Wujian, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Weird? I didn''t receive a rebuke again?

    He was trying to push his lucky by pure provocations because Ji Yuan thought that it may be funny.

    The main reason why Heng Wujian and even the other two champions did not rebuke him was because they were afraid that Ji Yuan was simply trying to bait them andin to their divine consorts.

    Others may not have this capability toin to their divine consorts but this Ji Yuan was the personal guard of honor of the Goddess Ai Tina and moreover, even their divine consorts were talking about meeting this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    And they could really sense that Ji Yuan was purposely trying to provoke all of them here.

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw that they had no reactions at all.

    So he asked, "So, who should be the leader of our team? Provided we need one in the first ce. Haha¡­"

    Sun Dashu smiled weakly, "I think Great Saint Ji Yuan should be the temporary leader of our team."

    Zhao Gao said nonchntly, "I have no objections with this."

    Ji Yuan was quite startled that they had actually picked him as the leader?

    So he turned to look at Heng Wujian with a grin, "How about you then?"

    Heng Wujian answered emotionlessly, "I have no objections either."

    Ji Yuan waspletely stunned.

    Just like this, he had be the leader of the team?!

 Chapter 894 To The Third Trial

    ?

    The 30 minutes short interval was over quickly.

    The Trial Spirit announced to everyone, "The barrier to the next location has now been removed. Please step forward to the entrance now."

    Since Ji Yuan was now the leader of his team, he walked to the entrance first and he was quickly followed by Zhao Gao, Heng Wujian and Sun Dashu.

    As they walked the entrance, Sun Dashu tried to break the ice further by asking. "Which celestial fraternity are you all from? I am from the Horizon Celestial Fraternity."

    Heng Wujian said coldly, "You talk too much."

    Sun Dashu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Actually, Ji Yuan was also a cultivator that liked to talk too much or else he would not be known as the foul-mouthed Ji Yuan sometimes.

    Unlike most of the MCs in cultivation stories that liked to act cool and never talk more than 100 lines in 100 chapters, Ji Yuan was notorious for talking, whether it was bad or good. He did not care because he was like an arrogant young master in his poor region.

    Actually, most of the fifth cultivation golden celestials and golden supremacies were like this in his poor region because there were no 12 major celestial sects, 3 divine pces or other lofty saints to rein them in; all the lower realm cultivators have to be respectful to them.

    That was until Ji Yuan and his group of fake friends had been bust by Xue Qianxue one day when they badmouth behind her back.

    Unlike the cultivation stories, Ji Yuan and the other golden celestials almost never fought to the death except for some ugly spars; they are too busy drinking, gossiping and telling boastful tales of their invented tales to actually offend a powerful cultivator from the powerful celestial region.

    Whatever differences they had in the past was probably when they were not golden celestials.

    Moreover, most of them are also sect leaders and elders of their almost insignificant celestial small sects.

    Most of them like Ji Yuan actually required the help from one another to fight off a powerful deste monster at times too.

    Ji Yuan turned around to grab Sun Dashu by his neck and chuckled, "Brother Sun Dashu! I think you talk too much. Haha. Come, follow me!"

    This Sun Dashu was probably from a minor celestial sect like Ji Yuan and that was why he was talking too much unlike the other two great saints.

    And he was probably in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to seek cultivation resources or a cultivation breakthrough because he had reached a bottleneck.

    "How old are you, Brother Sun Dashu?"

    "1800 years old. How about you Brother Ji Yuan?"

    "500 years. Haha¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had said that he was only 500 years as a great saint, this shocked both Heng Wujian and Zhao Gao!

    It was because Zhao Gao had only ovee his lightning tribtion at only 2300 years and Heng Wujian had ovee his lightning tribtion at 1800 years. They were both considered to be the geniuses of their generation and also the blessed sons of the heavens!

    And furthermore, they were now twice as old now because every tiny step in boundary from half-step great saint to the peak great saint was twice as difficult!

    Sun Dashu looked envious and he smiled, "I see that Brother Ji Yuan is such a genius cultivator. You must be a half-step great saint, am I right? And you are here to seek your breakthrough?"

    It was considered impolite to ask a cultivation senior about his cultivation realms if he did not want to reveal it.

    Now a cultivator is able to conceal their cultivation realm once they have reached the sixth cultivation realm spirit level. Not even a seventh cultivation realm great saint can read the sixth cultivation realm level of a golden supremacy.

    So it was not like in the cultivation stories where only the MCs could see the higher cultivation realm of the other cultivators and still could bash them or the opponents of the MCs would be surprised by his lower cultivation realm after he had announced it but they could not read it even though the MCs could read their cultivation realm. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan was actually not offended because this Sun Dashu was more friendly and in his poor region, the golden celestials were all more direct anyway.

    "I''m a peaked great saint. Haha¡­"

    Not only was Sun Dashu shocked but the other two great saints Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian were stunned too.

    At 500 years, this Ji Yuan was already a peaked great saint?!

    This was impossible¡­

    This Ji Yuan looked like the sort that spent more time maintaining his looks than cultivating¡­

    Sun Dashu stammered, "Peaked great saint?! Then you are only here to look for profound treasures? Brother Ji¡­ I mean Senior Ji Yuan must be a lofty cultivation figure in your celestial fraternity and also a famous one."

    As Ji Yuan continued to walk to the entrance, heughed. "Have you ever heard of the Deste Celestial Fraternity where the men valued their beards dearly? I am from that celestial fraternity."

    Sun Dashu stared at Ji Yuan for he had no beard¡­

    Ji Yuan continued tough, "I am famous there because I have lost my beard. Hahaha¡­"

    Zhao Gao, Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Sun Dashu did not know what to say or to react because he did not know whether Ji Yuan was joking or not and he was afraid of offending him. Moreover, Ji Yuan had his arm around his neck now and he was afraid that he may be strangled to the death if he said the wrong things.

    Ji Yuan was actually only teasing him because by nature, he was a joker and he just want to see how the others like Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian reacted as well.

    Very quickly they were at the entrance now and they had passed through to it. So Ji Yuan stopped talking to Sun Dashu for now.

    Ji Yuan, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian soon found themselves on top of arge golden pyramid and all around them were frozen snow.

    They saw that there was another entrance in front of them and it led them into the pyramid.

    "It seems that the trial starts in there. Let''s go in." Ji Yuan said and the 3 others were all nodding.

    So, they began to walk slowly down the dimly lit steps and into the pyramid.

    After descending into the pyramid, they found themselves in a huge hall and the passage ways were all 30 times their heights; this was a massive hallway!

    In front of them, they saw a huge armored status sitting on a throne seat in front of them; the knee of this statue was the same as their height and there was an eerily grinned mask on its knees that also resembled the exact face size of a man.

    The body armor of this massive statue also had a creepy face mask on it.

    Even its shoulder pauldrons and face mask also had the same creepy face.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "What is this trial all about?"

    Just as he had said that, a portal appeared from between the legs of the massive status and the Trial Spirit said, "The exact trial will start once you have entered the pyramid from this portal¡­"

    Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily even as the trial spirit was still talking, "Wait a minute! You want us to walk between the legs of this status? This looks a little insulting, right?"

 Chapter 895 The Rules Of The Third Trial

    ?

    Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily even as the trial spirit was still talking, "You want us to walk between the legs of this status? This looks a little insulting, right?"

    When Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian had heard Ji Yuan, they were looking quite amused; it was because the Trial Spirit had their own rules to follow and they would ignore the cultivators'' rumblings.

    As a high level cultivator, surely this Ji Yuan would know about this?

    Heng Wujian was silently thinking: This idiot¡­

    Sun Dashu was shaking his head¡­

    Zhao Gao was smiling: The Trial Spirit won''t even bother to reply you¡­

    Xiang Li pped her face: Big Brother, you are trying to quarrel with the Trial Spirit again¡­

    Anyang was smiling bitterly: Isn''t this to be expected?

    To everyone''s surprise, the Trial Spirit actually answered Ji Yuan. "This is the great status of Rey Pugpatine. So, it is your great honor to walk between her legs."

    Ji Yuan was dumbfounded, "Her? This statue looks like a man!"

    Even Heng Wujian, Zhao Gao and Sun Dashu were surprised that this status was a maiden.

    Indeed, this massive status looked like a man especially with the bulky muscles on it.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I used to have a dog name Pug. And I also know a powerful MC called Pug in the Magician cultivation story¡­"

    The Trial Spirit interrupted coldly, "This is the Woke Empress Pugpatine in her force plot armor that you are addressing and she deserves the utmost respect from the inferiors."

    Anyang was suddenly saying to Xiang Li: This is all too weird. This Spirit Trial will actually feel offend by a statue and this status actually has a name to it. If our lord never says anything then we won''t even know the name of this statue¡­

    Ji Yuan had overheard her: This is not the weirdest. I don''t want to walk between her legs, man or maiden!

    Although Ji Yuan had said that, he was walking toward the portal between the legs with Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian.

    It was indeed a random rumbling by Ji Yuan and he was still very much interested in the trial.

    "Hahaha¡­ don''t be so mad. I was only joking¡­ I must admit that my muscles are indeed inferior to her¡­ haha¡­"

    Even Sun Dashu was muttering as he looked at his thin arms, "Mine too¡­"

    Sun Dashu, Heng Wujian and Zhao Gao were all looking a little relieved though; it was because for a moment, they thought that this Great Saint Ji Yuan was going to pick a fight with the Trial Spirit for no apparent reason and this may screw up their trial.

    Ji Yuan seemed to know what they were thinking about and he chuckled, "I am most friendly with the Trial Spirits and the Trial Spirits love me. I''ll never quarrel with them. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    They don''t believe a word in what Ji Yuan was saying.

    Anyang muttered weakly to Xiang Li: I shouldn''t have read too much in our lord''s words and maybe I should cultivate quietly like Aura¡­

    But Anyang was also looking suspicious: This is indeed all too weird¡­

    She turned to Xiang Li to ask: Xiang Li, do you think this is all too weird? With your years of experience as a trial spirit?

    Xiang Li blinked her eyes: This is weird?

    You are a hopeless trial spirit, Xiang Li and a fake one.

    The Trial Spirit continued to announce after Ji Yuan had tried to appease it somehow, but the coldness did not go away. "In this trial, you have to survive 4 days against Snow ck the Hunter in this dark pyramid¡­"

    Ji Yuan and the other 3 cultivators were all looking at one another with a startled look; they only need to survive against a hunter?

    Isn''t this too easy since there are 4 of them?

    This was the question that had crossed their minds as the Trial Spirit briefed them on this trial.

    "But be warned. Even if you can kill the Hunter Snow ck, she will revive in 6 hours so she is basically unkible. Now go into the portal and the hunt shall begin."

    JI Yuan asked curiously, "It is a she? Why is she called Snow ck? Isn''t snow, white in color?"

    The Trial Spirit hummed coldly, "In the darkness, even the white snow will be ck. And Snow ck refers to her ck armor that is as ck as snow."

    Ji Yuan stole a nce at the other 3 cultivators and they were all stupefied together by the exnation that was given by the Trial Spirit.

    He weakly asked on everyone behalf, "Beside the ck armor, what other characteristic does this Hunter Snow ck have? You know, maybe she isn''t the only opponent inside the pyramid. Haha¡­"

    If it was other cultivators, they would probably just enter the portal. But Ji Yuan was someone that would ask all sorts of questions for his trial.

    He reasoned that it may be helpful, just in case.

    The Trial Spirit answered him, "You are indeed right. There are other dangers inside the pyramid too¡­"

    When the Trial Spirit said this, the 3 cultivators were startled that Hunter Snow ck was not the only threat.

    "Hunter Snow ck is dded fully in ck armor and is easy to identify. She is also a dwarf."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Hunter Snow ck is a dwarf? That is rather hard to hit. Just how tall is this dwarf?"

    When Ji Yuan had said this, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian were smiling: is this Ji Yuan stupid? How tall can a dwarf be?

    The Trial Spirit answered, "As tall as you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "As tall as me and she is a dwarf?! Is she a magical creature?!"

    Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian felt like pping themselves; this dwarf was really tall and they felt like they were the stupid ones.

    The Trial Spirit frowned, "Compared to the Woke Empress Pugpatine, she is a dwarf. Now enter the portal to begin the hunt!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he entered into the shimmering ck portal with Zhao Gao, Heng Wujian and Sun Dashu behind him.

    But before he had entered the portal, he was heard muttering. "Hunter Snow ck the Dwarf, here wee¡­"

    After Ji Yuan and his team had disappeared inside the shimmering portal to enter the pyramid, the Trial Spirit could be heard coldly saying. "For insulting Rey Pugpatine who is also the Woke Empress Pugpatine, this ck pyramid shall be your grave!"

 Chapter 896 The Dark Raptors Of The Third Trial

    ?

    Once Ji Yuan, Zhao Gao, Heng Wujian and Sun Dashu had entered through to the shimmering ck portal, they could himself in a simr big massive hallway.

    The entire ce was dimly lit by profound lights at the sides of the hallway and it was as though they were in a dark maze.

    As soon as they were inside, Sun Dashu asked Ji Yuan and also the rest. "Erm, do we have any team strategies?"

    Zhao Gao smiled, "We are 4 and Hunter Snow ck is only one. Do we need to fear from a mere hunter? After all, our team has 3 great saints."

    Even Heng Wujian was saying coolly, "If Hunter Snow ckes, we just have to kill her. If she spawns 10 times, then we shall kill her 10 times."

    Zhao Gao was smiling as he turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "I wonder what is the strategy that Brother Ji Yuan has in mind?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little awkward; he was actually about to say that each time they see Hunter Snow cking, they should all run as fast as possible.

    But when questioned by Zhao Gao all of a sudden, he put on a thick face byughing. "We are indeed 4 and have nothing to fear from a mere Hunter Snow ck. Like what Brother Heng Wujian has said, if shees 10 times, we shall kill her 10 times. If she spawns 10 times, we make her respawn 10 times!"

    Sun Dashu lifted his thumb to say, "Excellent strategy!"

    Zhao Gao smiled broadly, "You know Brother Ji Yuan. Probably all the divine consorts and even most of spectors will be watching our battle imagery in this arena. Therefore thanks to you, we have a chance to impress our divine consort too."

    Heng Wujian was even grinning, "I shall make my divine consort proud of me and I can up my Trust Points with her too."

    Ji Yuan noticed that when Heng Wujian was talking about his divine consort, he looked less haughty than usual.

    "Haha, Brother Heng Wujian. Who your patron divine consort?"

    The golden eyes of Heng Wujian softened and he smiled slowly, "Divine Consort Fu Rong. She''s a kind maiden¡­ I have to get into the top 6 ces for her sake."

    Ji Yuan was surprised to see there was actually a tender emotion in his eyes.

    But he quicklyughed aloud, "Then this is the n that we have decided. Haha¡­"

    After he had said that; Ji Yuan, Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu and even Heng Wujian were allughing together that this was really such a good n that they had devised.

    Soon, they were walking along the dark corridors of the great hall; the entire ce was like a maze and it looked a little empty. They could even hear their footsteps in this ce.

    There were many passages to pick from and soon it was apparent to the team that Ji Yuan was walking too slowly.

    Zhao Gao asked him, "Brother Ji Yuan, do you think that we are moving a little slow?"

    Even Sun Dashu and Heng Wujian were nodding too.

    Zhao Gao saw that Ji Yuan had a nk expression so he smiled, "If we hurry a little, we may find well find some hidden chambers that have some cultivation treasures in it. In this way, we can all also benefit from this trial."

    Sun Dashu and Heng Wujian nodded again; theypletely agreed with Zhao Gao on this.

    Ji Yuan said slowly, "I have a sudden uneasy feeling about this ce. Listen, we can even hear our own echoes in this ce and also our footsteps. If it is Hunter Snow ck, then won''t she be able to find us and hunt us down quite easily?"

    Zhao Gaoughed, "But we have many and there is no way for her to hide in this great hall¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had turned around and he had suddenly materialized 9 flying divine swords to fly to the top of the dark ceilings and arge dark raptor with deadly jaws had suddenly dropped dead in front of them; this was a 6th rank profound beast but when it died, it had also suddenly exploded into a ball of acid.

    Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu and even Heng Wujian were all startled; it was because their divine sense had not sensed the presence of any profound beast in this great hall!

    Ji Yuan was not sensing with his divine sense but he was looking at the shadows with his keen eyes and he saw a shadow moving subtly.

    It may be only a slight movement but it was quickly noticed by Ji Yuan because he liked to ambush in the darkness as well.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "It seems to me that this foul profound beast is invisible to our divine sense. I think it is because they are primeval beasts rather than deste beasts. So they have a stronger spirit shielding than what our divine sense can sense."

    When Ji Yuan had said this, the other 3 cultivators Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu and Heng Wujian had all turned ashen.

    If what Ji Yuan had said was correct then this ce was even more dangerous than it looked¡­

    The dark raptor that Ji Yuan had just killed may only be a 6th rank profound beast but its deadly ws were deadly enough to rip apart their profound animus and even ripped their bodies to pieces if it had sessfully ambushed them.

    Ji Yuan said slowly as he looked up to inspect the tall ceilings, "Not only do we need to worry about the Hunter Snow ck but we also have to worry about these dark raptors that may be more numerous than we think it is."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Then he pointed at the deadly acid next to the corpse of the dead raptor as he returned his flying swords to him, "We must also be wary of them when they are dead. These acids are deadly."

    Heng Wujian had unsheathed his divine sword, "Brother Ji Yuan is right. We must not be careless and we must maintain our vignce."

    Zhao Gao and Sun Dashu slowly nodded but there were now fears in their countenances.

    -

    -

    -

    Elsewhere, many of the teams were already ambushed by the dark raptors as they were moving too careless or too fast.

    Needless to say, the shock of being attacked by the dark raptors led to many casualties and even great shock, especially when the dark raptors could explode even when it was killed.

    Many of the divine consorts were shocked because they had never seen a trial like this where the cultivators could get ughter without even knowing why.

    It was as though their divine senses had all failed thempletely.

    Even when the dark raptors were dropping on them, the cultivators were not even aware or were guarding against it.

    It was too unbelievable.

    Usually for a cultivator to ambush another, there was still a little time of reaction even when they got ambushed due to their powerful divine senses.

    What was going on here?

    Even though Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei saw that for now Ji Yuan and his team seemed to be alright but there was an unspeakable fear in her heart about this trial.

    In fact, she was trembling because it was as though she could sense something extraordinary about this ce.

    Tang Manni saw her reaction and she asked, "Sister Yifei, what''s wrong?"

    Xu Yifei shook her head gently, "Nothing¡­"

    Tang Manni looked fearful and so did Ding Jie''Er, Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun as they watched the battle imageries.

    While their concerns were primary Ji Yuan but they had suddenly lost quite a few champions to these dark raptors in a hurry and many of these champions were cultivators that could even kill a 7th rank profound beast.

    But now, these champions were killed by mere 6th rank profound beasts instead!

    The Goddess Destiny hadpletely stopped sipping her tea now and she was staring at the battle imageries that were shing in the Divine Temple.

    And she was saying silently: Profound darkness¡­

    Elsewhere in the colosseums, the spectors were gasping with shock as the cultivators were getting ughtered and what was more, when these dark raptors could even explode into burst of acid when killed.

    "This trial is too perverse¡­"

    "This is only the 3rd trial?"

    "The trials this time seems too hard¡­"

    "How many of the champions can survive to the 4th Trial?"

    "Have anyone seen that Hunter Snow ck yet?"

    "So far, it is only the dark raptors¡­"

 Chapter 897 Day 2 Of The 3rd Trial (1)

    ?

    For a full day, the ambushes and the ughters by the dark raptors urred throughout the dark pyramids.

    It was tense for the spectors to watch their champions getting ughtered or to watch them fleeing from the dark raptors.

    Although the champions also put up a fierce fight, there were also many injuries and deaths when the dark raptors exploded when they were killed.

    But there was no sight of the Hunter Snow ck yet.

    At least not until the appointed time.

    It was because the Trial Spirit had purposely waited for a full day before releasing Hunter Snow ck as the champions would be on high alert to watch out for the sight of the Hunter Snow ck and it would be nerve racking for them.

    The aim of this trial was to exhaust the champions both physically and mentally.

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit was now saying to therge profound mirror on the wall, "Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who is the most beautiful man among the champions?"

    A handsome and beautiful face was shown in the profound mirror and it was Ji Yuan.

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit hummed coldly, "This ugly man will soon be dead. Mirror, mirror on the wall. Whose battle imagery is the most viewed by the divine senses of the spectors?"

    Again, a handsome and beautiful face was shown in the profound mirror and it was Ji Yuan.

    "This ugly man again¡­"

    "Mirror, mirror on the wall. Whose battle imagery is the most viewed by the divine consorts?"

    Once again, a handsome and beautiful face was shown in the profound mirror and it was Ji Yuan.

    "This ugly man again!!! Are these divine consorts all blind?!"

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit flickered her fingers at another profound ck mirror before saying angrily, "Go now, Hunter Snow ck. ughter all the champions that cross your path. May the Woke be with you!"

    Then she added with a cold smile, "For the ck pyramid that this Ji Yuan is at, an extra difficulty will be added for you. For you, there is no fairy tale ending¡­"

    All in all, 55 Hunter Snow cks were released for the 55 champion teams in the 55 ck pyramids.

    -

    -

    -

    Day 2 of the 3rd Trial.

    A few hours ago, Ji Yuan''s team had a battle with 6 dark raptors thate from all sides.

    When the first ambushing dark raptor was killed by Ji Yuan, the rest of the 5 dark raptors began to attack Ji Yuan and his team directly.

    Although in the end, Ji Yuan and his team were victorious but Sun Dashu was injured while Zhao Gao was slightly injured.

    They were lucky that no one was killed; these 5 dark raptors were after all 6th rank profound beasts and together, they could still kill a great saint easily since they have tens of times more physical strength than their strongest cultivator.

    Ji Yuan had picked a great hallway with 3 passage ways to rest, "We shall rest here."

    Zhao Gao was frowning as clutched his chest painfully; he had been wounded by one of the dark raptors to his chest earlier.

    "We are resting in this ce? You mean you have been searching for a such a dangerous ce for us to rest?"

    He was in disbelief.

    And so did Sun Dashu and even Heng Wujian; to them, it did not make any sense and this ce looked like a most vulnerable ce where they could be attacked from all sides.

    What they need now was a defensive ce where they could camp to regain their profound strength and to recuperate from their injuries.

    All the previous temporary brotherhood had suddenly vanished from their team now after a brutal fight with the 6 dark raptors a couple of hours ago and everyone had be impatient or nervous.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "This ce is good. We don''t know how many dark raptors there are in this ce. Maybe 1, 10 or even 100. What if it is a 100? Then we have two more exits to run to. Haha¡­"

    Zhao Gao was shocked, "Run?! I am a great saint! A blessed son of the heavens! I''ll never run away from troubles or from the inferior enemies even if they are numerous!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "I actually run away quite a lot of times. Haha¡­"

    Zhao Gao, Heng Wujian and Sun Dashu: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued to chuckle, "Don''t be too hasty, all my brothers here. You will never know what troubles we may face right? If things turn south, we can always run. Don''t you agree?"

    This time round, Heng Wujian hummed coldly. "My divine consort right now is watching me. In front of my divine consort, I shall not engage in any unheroic act. Moreover, I can easily dispatch of these dark raptors anyway."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He was not wrong that his Divine Consort Fu Rong was indeed watching their battle imagery from her Divine Temple. However, he did not know that his Divine Consort Fu Rong was actually looking more at Ji Yuan rather than him.

    Sun Dashu said weakly due to his heavy injuries, "I have to agree with Great Saint Heng Wujian. Didn''t we agree to fight these dangers together? This is our n, right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw the injured Sun Dashu. Earlier, Ji Yuan even had to expend some of his precious profound strength to save him.

    "You sure you can still fight?"

    Ji Yuan stared at him as he asked him this question.

    Sun Dashuughed weakly, "We are being watched by a great deal of people from the outside. Brother Ji Yuan, you are the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, surely you want to put on a good show as well for the people outside as well as gaining your Trust Points, right?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I''ve already got my 100 Trust Points already."

    When he had said that, Sun Dashu, Zhao Gao and Heng Wujian were all shocked.

    Zhao Gao interrupted into their conversations, "So the rumors are true after all. You have already screwed your Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and made her into your maiden?"

    Sun Dashu was also stammering as he asked, "Is¡­ this true?"

    Heng Wujian hummed coldly, "What a scoundrel!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Before Ji Yuan could even protest, Zhao Gao added by reminding Ji Yuan. "Since we are all celestial champions here, we can all be honest with one another here. It is pointless to score 100 Trust Points for a time. We also have to maintain it as well until the end of the trial. Our trial rewards are based on how much Trust Points we can achieve from our divine consorts so we need to maintain it as high as possible¡­"

    "¡­ Brother Ji Yuan, if you disy any signs of cowardice, do you think that you are still able to maintain your 100 Trust Points?"

    Sun Dashu was nodding because he totally agreed with Zhao Gao on this.

    Ji Yuan frowned before he sarcastically said, "After the trials here, I can always make love to my divine consort again."

    Zhao Gao, Sun Dashu, Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Heng Wujian had unsheathed his heaven-step divine sword at Ji Yuan now, "You bastard!!!"

    Ji Yuan stepped back and he had his hand on his immortal scabbard, "What is wrong with you?"

    Heng Wujian shouted angrily, "Bastard! Draw your divine sword and fight me one to one!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Cool it! I am only kidding with you¡­"

    Heng Wujian had attacked Ji Yuan now with a powerful sword strike that caused the surrounding air to echo loudly with the profound power of his strike.

    Ji Yuan unsheathed Xiang Li to block the attack but he was still being forced back 3 steps; it was because this Heng Wujian was a great saint cultivator that was also using all his profound strength while Ji Yuan was still conditioning himself.

    Sun Dashu muttered weakly, "We shouldn''t have any in-fighting in our team¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan raised his hand to say to Heng Wujian, "Did you hear that?"

    Heng Wujian was also startled, "Yes¡­"

    It was because they had suddenly heard the sound of a spear grinding on the floors of the great hallway.

    Even Zhao Gao and Sun Dashu had also raised their divine swords in rm.

    It did not take them long to see a ck armored bulky figure to emerge from the dark passage way; it was Huntress Snow ck that was apanied by 7 dark raptors that were moving silently.

    Sun Dashu was shocked, "7 dark raptors?!"

    Zhao Gao gasped, "We have encountered Hunter Snow ck¡­"

    Heng Wujian said coldly, "We shall fight them and send them back to the abyss!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Well, if you say so¡­"

 Chapter 898 Day 2 Of The 3rd Trial (2)

    ?

    Barely a few moments had happened when Hunter Snow ck had appeared, Heng Wujian had charged forward with his heaven-step divine sword. "Hunter or huntress, it doesn''t matter to me. Because I''ll still ughter you!

    With that he had raised his powerful profound aura like a ring sh of light as he flew to engage Hunter Snow ck.

    Hunter Snow ck swung her ck spear and a brilliant burst of profound death ray expanded from it, instantly tossing Heng Wujian back against the massive wall with a thunderous crash!

    Heng Wujian could not believe that with his great saint cultivation realm, he was unable to even resist her ck spear attack and it was only one stroke!

    Two dark raptors were immediately upon Heng Wujian to rip him apart but Ji Yuan was upon them immediately; he quickly sent the two dark raptors to roll off immediately while he grabbed the injured the Heng Wujian who had not recovered from his terrifying profound attack of his attacker.

    As he grabbed Heng Wujian, a burst of death ray exploded outward from the Hunter Snow ck against him, sending Ji Yuan to fly off with Heng Wujian.

    This had the effect of triggering his sword aura even though Ji Yuan had already raised his Xiang Li to defend himself with his ultra sword spirit.

    Ji Yuan was sent flying off more than twenty steps with Heng Wujian and his divine sword was hot with the undissipated profound energies of the death ray profound attack.

    As for Sun Dashu and Zhao Gao, they had already fled to one of the passages.

    "What the heck?!"

    Ji Yuan was astonished that the ''righteous sounding'' Sun Dashu and Zhao Gao that were so adamant in fighting earlier were actually fleeing even they had even fought.

    No fleeing?!

    Impressing their divine consorts with their heroics?

    It is all craps!

    Even Heng Wujian had turned around to escape but not before saying to Ji Yuan, "This Hunter Snow ck is too powerful! We need to flee as quickly as possible¡­"

    And he had run to the other passage way.

    Ji Yuan actually did not intend to fight anyway as the aim of this trial is to survive as long as possible for 4 days. Moreover, this Hunter Snow ck was unkible.

    So Ji Yuan ran into the passage where Heng Wujian had headed to as well.

    This shocked Heng Wujian, "Why are you following me?"

    Ji Yuan grinned weakly, "Haha. By dividing ourselves into two passages, maybe this Hunter Snow ck won''t hunt us down and instead go into the other passage way."

    Heng Wujian shook his head with a soft sigh, "The two of us have just made an enemy with this Hunter Snow ck. Don''t you know the hunter''s mentality? A hunter will never give up his pursue. If you go to the other passage way, we may have a 50 / 50 chance of survival."

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he ran, "Well, I didn''t know you are quite acknowledgeable about this¡­"

    Just as he had said that, the Hunter Snow ck and the 7 dark raptors were all running in the same passage as them and were chasing them from behind them!

    Heng Wujian sighed heavily, "Now we are screwed. If we can survive to find the next passage, we shall split to divert their attention. In this way, one of us may survive."

    Despites Heng Wujian''s injuries, his running speed did not slow down and he was surprised that Ji Yuan could even catch up with him.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned around to slow down his pursuers with several powerful sword bursts before he returned his attention to say to Heng Wujian, "Actually¡­ your logic won''t work¡­"

    Heng Wujian: ???

    Ji Yuan took a mouthful of breath before resuming to exin, "I have actually entered the same passage way as you because I know that no matter which passage way I choose, this Hunter Snow ck will surely follow me."

    "What do you mean?"

    "That Hunter Snow White''s killing intention seems to be locked onto me. I can sense it." Ji Yuan chuckled softly.

    "Then what the heck are you following me for?!" Heng Wujian was in disbelief as he ran, almost missing a step.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Do you think that the other 2 cultivators will be able to survive the pursue instead?"

    Then he added without waiting for Heng Wujian to answer him back, "So I''ve ced my bet on you instead."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    It was true that Ji Yuan did this on purpose.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had slowed down his running speed and allowed Heng Wujian to run ahead when they had ran into a smaller passage way that had steps upward.

    With a powerful swing of his sword, he had unleashed the Super Heaven Light of the Coiling Light in the midst of the steps.

    It was because he knew that Hunter Snow ck was also about to attack him from the back.

    Indeed, he was right for Hunter Snow ck had already unleashed a powerful death ray with her long ck spear.

    The profound energies speed of this Hunter Snow ck was insanely fast and matched even Ji Yuan''s charging speed in his profound energies as well.

    That was why Ji Yuan could not rely on his divine sense and he could only rely on his inherent instincts to predict his opponent''s moves.

    The two powerful waves of profound energies instantly collided against each other and 2 unfortunate dark raptors were caught in the attacking paths, resulting in instant deaths.

    Their deaths had also caused them to instantly exploded over the Hunter Snow ck as she raised her ck spear to defend herself.

    But one of the dark raptors was killed by the death explosions and it had exploded again.

    Now there were 4 dark raptors that had remained.

    At the same time Hunter Snow ck and the 4 dark raptors were flung back to the beginning of the steps.

    When the explosive profound energies had cleared and Hunter Snow ck had regained her bnce, Ji Yuan had already disappeared.

    Hunter Snow ck looked extremely angry because it was as though this Ji Yuan knows exactly when she would attack and had timed it to be so in this small passage.

    Even when he was fleeing and chatting with hispanion, this Ji Yuan was still able to react with such extraordinary reflexes.

    She was very sure that this Ji Yuan must be an experienced hunter himself.

    Indeed, she was not wrong about this.

    Ji Yuan was in fact so good in ying the role of the hunted and the hunter that he could switch between these two roles so well with his pure audacity.

    When Ji Yuan had ended his cultivation retreat and returned to his Orthodox Sword Sect, he had learnt that someone had been bullying his sect and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Ji Yuan did something so audacious that no other cultivator in their right minds would dare to do; he had killed the bullies and even deliver himself to the Emperor Hall Sect to face off the hunters directly.

    His audacity shocked Fairy Ye Chengxi because she had never known that her old master would be so thick skinned to go to the Emperor Hall Sect to im for a reward for ''helping'' the Emperor Hall Sect to bring the corpses of their two fallen bullies.

    Not to mention that Ji Yuan had even tried to storm the Celestial Orthodox twice over to look for Xue Qianxue, never mind that he would soon be sent packing.

    This was not the end of his audacity.

    The first time that he was captured by the Celestial Orthodox Sect, he had even allowed himself to be whipped by Qin Shuang for 3 weeks to lure out his shadow followers.

    He could actually break out with his profound strength but he had pretended to be a lower cultivation realm cultivator as he pondered things over. (See Chapter 39)

    Even for his death duel with the Hundred Flower Divine Pce,

    But one thing was for sure.

    Ji Yuan had no sense of fear even when he was being hunted; he would not hesitate to run when necessary or to turn around to fight at the right opportunity.

 Chapter 899 Day 2 Of The 3rd Trial (3)

    ?

    Hunter Snow ck had immediately sped after Ji Yuan and Heng Wujian with the 4 dark raptors that were prowling along with her.

    This passageway was still a lone passage way so it would be easy for her to track them down. Moreover, even if there was a split passage way, it did not matter to her.

    So Hunter Snow ck hurried after them.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan had popped from the top of ceiling and he had disyed his grand cross with his two divine swords.

    Hunter Snow ck was startled as she raised her ck spear to block the attack from the top.

    There was a brilliant wave of profound light in a grand cross shape that immediately throw off the 4 dark raptors away from Ji Yuan and the Hunter Snow ck.

    The profound power of J Yuan''s profound sword art was so powerful that Hunter Snow ck was forced to kneel down before him like a subject to a king.

    However, Ji Yuan still failed to prate through to this Hunter Snow ck''s profound aura and even her profound strength had stood firm against one of his ultimate profound art.

    This miracle sword art actually required plenty of profound strength from Ji Yuan and he was not able to use it so quickly again.

    So when the profound energies of his grand cross was nearly to the end, he had suddenly shed away immediately.

    Hunter Snow ck was furiously as she screamed coarsely behind her dark helm, "You shall not run!"

    Ji Yuan quickly disyed his 9 flying swords as he mustered his life and death sword domain as the profound energies of his 9 divine swords exploded along with the physical swords.

    This profound sword attack actually costed him two sword domains; the normal flying sword domain and the life destructive flying sword domain.

    Because his grand cross had already weakened this Hunter Snow ck, his life destructive flying swords were able to prate through the ck armor of the Hunter Snow ck and effectively killing it.

    As Hunter Snow ck died, she exploded into a brilliant ball of profound energies that were even more startling as his grand cross profound attack, causing even the 4 dark raptors to be killed and exploded as well.

    Ji Yuan merely said, "I see."

    He had suspected that this Hunter Snow ck would explode too once she was killed but he had not expected for the profound explosion to affect such arge area.

    That was the reason why he had suddenly shed back after noting that the profound strength of this Hunter Snow ck was faltering before using his sword domain to kill her.

    He swiftly ran in the direction where Heng Wujian wasst seen.

    At the same time, Heng Wujian had hurried back after hearing therge profound explosions.

    Heng Wujian was quite startled to see Ji Yuan, "You are still alive?!"

    Ji Yuan had told him to run down the hallway first while he covered his back. But Heng Wujian had decided to turn back to look for Ji Yuan when he had heard of the profound explosions.

    Another consideration he had was how his Divine Consort Fu Rong would think of his cowardice ways.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I''ve killed this Hunter Snow ck and the group of dark raptors as well."

    Heng Wujian had a look of relief but he was soon smiling, "That means that we have to depend on you to kill this Hunter Snow ck for now."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I have bad news for you. I refuse to do it."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he exined, "This Hunter Snow ck is really a tough opponent and I''ve to use plenty of my profound strength to kill it. I may be able to kill it a few times but I will eventually be killed once I have exhausted my profound strength. This monster can revive every 6 hours or 4 time a day. In short, I may have to battle her up to 12 times over the course of 3 days. You think that I can win eventually?"

    Heng Wujian blinked his eyes, "What Brother Ji Yuan says, actually make sense¡­"

    "Of course, I make sense," Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "Also, I don''t have so many range attacks to kill this monster too. When I use my most powerful melee profound attack, I''ll be vulnerable too and I may even get kill by the profound explosions when this monster died."

    Heng Wujian sighed heavily, "So what should we do now?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Find the other two and try to flee from this Hunter Snow ck as much as possible."

    Heng Wujian slowly nodded with an awkward look, "I guess that this may be our only strategy after all¡­"

    It seemed that he could not impress his Divine Consort Fu Rong this time round¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Everywhere in the Divine Temples and Colosseums, battle imageries of the champions in the ck pyramid were shed.

    A day had since passed since the third trial had started and the Hunter Snow ck had suddenly spawned.

    All the divine consorts and spectators were astonished when Hunter Snow ck had spawned with 7 dark raptors against Ji Yuan and his team.

    And this Hunter Snow ck was the only Hunter Snow ck that had spawned with 7 dark raptors.

    They prayed that this may just be a fluke and it would not ur again.

    When Ji Yuan had killed the Hunter Snow ck, many of the divine consorts could finally heave a soft sigh of relief.

    This not only included Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and even Destiny.

    But it also included the divine consorts from the other city-states like Divine Consort Fu Rong who was paying more attention to Ji Yuan than her own champion Heng Wujian.

    Divine Consort Fu Rong was even heard saying to the other divine consorts in her divine temple, "This Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is truly heroic. He covers the back of my champion and even save him. What a heroic man¡­"

    The other divine consorts in her Divine Temple could not help but nodded in agreement with her!

 Chapter 900 The Third Day Of The Trial (1)

    ?

    Third day of the Trial.

    Ji Yuan and Heng Wujian had doubled back to the split passageways to look for Sun Dashu and Zhao Gao shortly after the Hunter Snow ck was killed.

    During this time, they had encountered three more battles with the dark raptors. But the numbers were no more than 3 and they easily finished off the dark raptors.

    It took them a while to find Sun Dashu and Zhao Gao again, which was like 14 hours after they had been separated.

    Unfortunately for them, they could only find their dead corpses.

    From their wounds, Ji Yuan and Heng Wujian could easily tell what had killed them; Sun Dashu was killed by a dark raptor and as for Zhao Gao, there were several spear marks on his body.

    It was obvious to them that Zhao Gao had been killed by the respawned Hunter Snow ck.

    Ji Yuan and Heng Wujian did not stay for too long and 10 hourster, they had found a deserted ce with two passage way to rest.

    This time round, Heng Wujian had no objections about finding a ce with split passageways to rest.

    In fact he said to Ji Yuan, "If Hunter Snow ck shows up again, you run first. I follow you."

    Ji Yuan merely grinned but said nothing.

    He knows that it was awkward to Heng Wujian''s face for him to run away first, especially when his divine consort and so many others were all viewing their battle imagery. And that was why he had said that to him.

    If the ''Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan'' run away first then he was merely following his lead.

    Ji Yuan was thick face anyway and he did not put much thought in running away when needed unless it was a martial duel that he had agreed upon.

    Against an unkible foe like the Hunter Snow ck, he had no grudges about fleeing away from her because his objective was in surviving this trial to the next trial and it was not about defeating her anyway.

    But then, he did kill her once already.

    He was capable of killing her but it would be too exhausting for him.

    Moreover, what if this Hunter Snow ck would revive to be a stronger opponent like in the cultivation stories?

    Then won''t he be screwed for testing the limits of this Hunter Snow ck?

    Also, he did not have unlimited profound strength to keep killing her too and he was cautious that the table would be turned against him once his moves be too familiar to this Hunter Snow ck.

    As Ji Yuan and Heng Wujian sat down with their exhausted bodies, Heng Wujian began to sigh heavily. "We are the only two survivors in this team now¡­"

    Then he quietly asked, "Do you think that it is possible for us to evade this Hunter Snow ck for the next 2 days?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Nope. It is impossible."

    Heng Wujian frowned, "This ck pyramid is so huge. Finding us is not easy at all. Moreover, for the couple of hours, we have been making sure that our profound animus are invisible to the divine sense. No way that this Hunter Snow ck can track us down so easily."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "But you have forgotten two things¡­."

    "Huh?" Heng Wujian muttered a look of disbelief at Ji Yuan.

    "¡­ One. The dark raptors that we have killed is giveaway clue to our general direction¡­"

    Heng Wujian snorted, "That is why we have been running away from ourst known location."

    "¡­Two." Ji Yuan grinned as though he was merely just a spectator. "We shouldn''t have attacked that Hunter Snow ck in the first ce. Because by doing so, we have left behind our profound signatures in her and she can use that to track us down. Hahaha¡­"

    Heng Wujian was shocked, "Why didn''t you warn us of this earlier?"

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders before he stared with a grin at Heng Wujian, "I''ve just thought of this actually. Moreover, did the team all agree with the strategy of killing all oppositions in the first ce? Didn''t we say, if this Hunter Snow ck spawns 10 times then we shall kill this Hunter Snow ck 10 times?"

    "Or rather," he chuckled. "You are the one that said that."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Heng Wujian began to smile bitterly, "I did say that."

    This was awkward to Heng Wujian''s face especially when he was a great saint as well.

    He tried to defend himself by adding, "I didn''t know that this Hunter Snow ck is such a formidable opponent. That is why I got careless."

    Ji Yuan looked at him and grinned, "Do you think that Hunter Snow ck will be an easy opponent when she is only one while we have 4? Or you think that the trial is assuming that everyone is as weak as Sun Dashu or were at an even lower cultivation realm."

    Heng Wujian answered awkwardly, "No¡­"

    Ji Yuan was not out to embarrass Heng Wujian on purpose; it was because he was quite worried about the safety of Xiao Muhan who was even weaker than this Sun Dashu.

    Or even Spirit Consort Miao Humei who was only at the 6th Spirit Realm and even Saintess Yi Ling that were with his same team during the first trial.

    It was likely that they were goners now.

    Brother Xiao Muhan, I shall burn you more incense sticks in the future¡­

    But the truth was he was even more worried for his Senior Sister Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong who were also champions inside the trial.

    Maybe some of them may have even perished by now.

    This was the consequences of being a cultivator.

    Even for Ji Yuan, he could not stop them from trying to be stronger nor could he shelter them.

    Everyone has to take their life and death trials; the more trials that they had faced, the less chance that they would be killed by their own cultivation breakthroughs.

    Ji Yuan began to sigh woefully¡­

    He wondered if they may be thinking about the same too in this most difficult trial.

    -

    -

    -

    In another ck pyramid.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had just killed a dark raptor which exploded upon death but she was nimble enough to avoid the explosive acid that spewed everywhere.

    Just as her team which consisted of 3 other male champions were celebrating, she got a sudden shock when Hunter Snow ck had appeared right at the arch of the passage door and her long ck spear was almost pointing at her.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had turned ashen immediately; it was because she had been too careless and today, she would be the first victim of this Hunter Snow ck as she saw the dark light of the ck spear began to move with great profound power.

    To her startled surprise, the death ray of the Hunter Snow ck was quickly upon one of the champions and he was swept aside by the profound energies that had just exploded on him.

    Then the Hunter Snow ck had simply shed past the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu to pursue the other two male champions.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu gasped, "I am saved?"

    It was as though she waspletely invisible!

    2. 900 Chapters ^o^.

 Chapter 901 The Third Day Of The Trial (2)

    ?

    In the Divine Temples and colosseums, all the spectators were looking a little stunned; it was because in all the battle imageries, the Hunter Snow ck was ignoring all the female champions as though they were invisible and only pursuing the male champions.

    It was something that had never happened before.

    Even though the female spiritas have no great love for the males but this was a little too much.

    They saw that as long as the female champions did not attack the Hunter Snow ck, they would be ignored and be treated as invisibles.

    This caused many of the spectators to be great astonished and bewildered.

    "What?! This Hunter Snow ck is sexist?"

    "Maybe it is because it is also a female¡­"

    "No way! This Hunter Snow ck looks so bulky like a male¡­"

    "This Hunter Snow ck can even explode when dead¡­ and it even rains powerful shreds of metals when exploding¡­ I saw a champion that survived the profound explosions but he got killed by the metal shreds instead, having been ripped to pieces by it¡­"

    "This trial is so unfriendly to the male champions¡­"

    "Although we most females here but the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower is the only time where we can see the more powerful males¡­"

    "These male champions train for 500 years to meet such a end this year¡­"

    "Actually, in every Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, there are actually not a lot of champions that can survive actually, especially in the fifth trial¡­ so this is considered quite normal¡­"

    "Did you all notice that in the ck pyramid where Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is, the Hunter Snow White alwayse with 7 dark raptors?"

    "Yes¡­ I notice that as well¡­"

    Back to the ck pyramids, many of the female champions had quickly adapted their strategies to avoid fighting Hunter Snow ck once they had discovered this little exploitation.

    Naturally this little exploitation did not apply to Ji Yuan''s team since his team was all men.

    The divine consorts in the Divine Temple of Snowy Pavilion City looked extremely angry.

    Dongfang Xin was demanding to know why the Hunter Snow ck in the ck pyramid where Ji Yuan was at, always seemed to have so many ck raptors, "This looks wrong! We are not blind!"

    Ding Jie''Er was bleary eyed, "That Hunter Snow ck has killed the Champion Zhao Gao. He never got a chance fighting the Hunter Snow ck and being surrounded by 7 ck raptors at the same time¡­ Yuan Beluga may have survived a fight with the Hunter Snow ck once but this Hunter Snow ck can keep spawning¡­"

    Sun Dingjun nervously said, "The Hunter Snow ck is now hunting for Ji Yuan and that other champion."

    Tang Manni was also nervously saying, "Master Ji Yuan, I hope that you will be alright¡­ lucky my sister isn''t here to see this¡­"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had to excuse herself as she had notpleted her cultivation retreat yet; her great mistress has previously ordered her to fully master a mystic profound circle that was taught to her before the end of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    That was the reason why she was not in the Divine Temple and she had told Tang Manni that she may need 10 or more days before she could return.

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Destiny were all looking at the battle imagery nervously too; they could see that the Hunter Snow ck was closer to closer to Ji Yuan now¡­

    Destiny could actually hear Ji Yuan and she was astonished that Ji Yuan had disyed no fear even though he had already found out that both Zhao Gao and Sun Dashu were now dead.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Did he know that he is now in a dire situation?

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the ck pyramid where Ji Yuan was with Heng Wujian.

    Heng Wujian was now saying to Ji Yuan, "I don''t understand why you keep looking down instead of at the passageways? We should be on high alert instead."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he pointed at the dim light on the ground, "We are in a good position here. If the shadows were to flicker a little then we know something ising our way. And from here, we can see the shadows from the two passageways clearly."

    Heng Wujian had a sudden realization; it was no wonder that Ji Yuan was looking at the ground. Even a little subtlety by the shadows would mean something.

    Then he was frowning, "This means that we have to stare at the shadows on the ground while we are resting. So if we don''t see Hunter Snow ck while we are resting here, it means that it is also a waste of our mental strength to keep vignt¡­"

    All of a sudden, the shadows on the ground moved a little as though something fast had shed past it.

    Ji Yuan looked up to stare at Heng Wujian, "I think you are too big mouth."

    Heng Wujian: ¡­

    Ji Yuan panicky said to him, "Hurry down the other passageway. I shall hold them back first."

    Heng Wujian was startled, "You will hold them back first? Are you sure?"

    "Or you rather hold them back while I run first?" Ji Yuan grinned.

    Heng Wujian naturally picked the first choice and he was soon running down the passageway.

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself after Heng Wujian was gone, "So much about we should fight this threat together."

    The Hunter Snow ck had quickly appeared silently in the passage way again and she was apanied by 9 ck raptors.

    Ji Yuan had already prepared his 9 divine swords in front of him. At the same time, he was also wielding Xiang Li and Anyang ambidextrously as he faced the Hunter Snow ck.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed coarsely, "The same trick cannot be used twice on me!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "How do you know that I am about to use my same trick?"

 Chapter 902 The Third Day Of The Trial (3)

    ?

    Just as Ji Yuan had chuckled by remarking to the Hunter Snow ck how she was able to know to his tricks, he had indeed sent his 9 divine swords to fly toward her.

    At the same time, he was also charging with his two divine swords at her and he was disying his ultra sword spirit at the same time.

    The Hunter Snow ck smirked coldly as she swung her ck spear that exploded into a brilliant burst of ck light upon Ji Yuan.

    This time round, there was no need for Ji Yuan to even have the chance of approaching near to her!

    The burst of profound ck light exploded outward and shattered the 9 flying swords that were zooming in her direction.

    Ji Yuan raised both of his divine swords to shield himself from the profound energies that exploded over him and even his sword aura was triggered.

    He began to resist these profound energies with the profound power of his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon that were on his swords; because this time round he was slower, he actually could not release the profound energies of his sword art.

    However, he never had the intention to attack her anyway and he was actually just defending himself with his profound power over him.

    His flying swords were actually off course on purpose as he was channeling them to cut down on the 7 dark raptors that were around the Hunter Snow ck.

    While the Hunter Snow ck was channeling her profound attack on him, she was actually unable to move.

    And that was Ji Yuan''s intention as he killed and exploded the 7 dark raptors that were around her!

    Once that was done, Ji Yuan abandoned his sword intentions and refocused on himself to disy his spirit animus as the shape of a deste cherubim with dark wings began to envelop over his sword aura.

    With a loud yell, Ji Yuan had deflected the powerful burst of dark ray profound energies aside and ending the deadly dark profound energies attack.

    However, the Hunter Snow ck was not concerned as she swung her ck spear again as another burst of profound energies exploded again in Ji Yuan''s direction.

    Her cold and coarse voiceughed, "Imbecile! You didn''t expect that I have already prepared for my second continuous attack, do you?"

    Ji Yuan was also very quick as he mustered two Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon into the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to be pitted against the dark profound energy attack.

    As the two profound energies collided, the dark profound energies were dissipated and the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was quickly upon the Hunter Snow ck!

    Ji Yuan''s profound power with his Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was much stronger with the added profound strength of his spirit animus!

    The Hunter Snow White was flung onto the massive wall with a thunderous impact, creating a massive impact onto the iron walls that were as hard as the densest celestium.

    Celestium is the hardest and densest stone that can even absorb the profound energies that are released by a cultivator. Whether it is in the Celestial Realm or the Spirit Divine Realm, it is extremely expensive stone that only the cultivation powerhouses could afford.

    Even a 9th cultivation realm immortal would have trouble destroying a celestium stone and that is the reason why it is also the building material of choice in the Celestial Realm.

    And this entire ck pyramid was made up of massive ck celestium block stone blocks that weight 1000 tons a block or 100 times the weight of granite!

    The weight is so heavy as it is extremely dense and harder than even diamonds.

    The thicker a celestium stone is, the harder it is to be destroyed or cracked.

    One could imagine the force that was inflicted on the Hunter Snow ck and how powerful the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon really was.

    However, the Hunter Snow ck was still alive and she had even picked herself up to say coarsely to Ji Yuan, "Is this the best that you can do?"

    Ji Yuan was astonished that the Hunter Snow ck was stronger than the first incarnation.

    He was right; this Hunter Snow ck did get stronger after each rebirth.

    The Hunter Snow ck pointed her ck spear trembling at Ji Yuan and mocked behind her dark helm, "You may be able to kill me this time but you won''t be able to kill me the next time. In fact, I will be stronger in my next incarnation¡­ but what about you? To defeat me, I guess that you have already consumed plenty of your profound strength already, am I right?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan replied her by disying two long freaking light that pierced through her bulky dark armored body, immediately pinning her onto the ck celestium walls as she screamed aloud!

    Although Hunter Snow ck had raised her ck spear to block the two freaking light but with her present condition, she was powerless to stop the profound attack.

    It was because Ji Yuan had just disyed the Sacred Pir Sword, his miracle sword art.

    And wasted more of his profound strength.

    The Hunter Snow ck was furiously as she attempted to break free of Ji Yuan''s divine swords that were in her body, screaming like an old witch and hissing like a terrifying demon.

    "So¡­ you dare not¡­e close to me¡­ you''re¡­ afraid that I may explode¡­ Hahahaha¡­"

    But to the surprise of the Hunter Snow ck, Ji Yuan had shed next to her and he was grinning as he took out Anyang slowly from her body.

    The Hunter Snow ck was startled that Ji Yuan had dared toe near to her.

    Xiang Li was also screaming: Big Brother, why did you leave me in her dirty body for?!

    Ji Yuan answered Xiang Li with a look of disbelief: What the heck, Xiang Li. You are obviously in my soul sea. I''m only leaving your divine sword in her body¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted with a giggle: But Big Brother, I can feel my divine sword too so I am in two ces.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He decided to ignore Xiang Li for now as he decided to do something even more important first.

    He then raised Anyang with all his profound strength as he sliced off the limbs of the faltering Hunter Snow ck with the profound power of his Sacred Pir Sword.

    He had to use his Sacred Pir Sword because he had estimated that it was otherwise impossible to severe the limbs of the Hunter Snow ck even with an emperor-step divine sword or a less powerful profound sword art judging from the profound strength of his opponent.

    After all, the cultivation body of a high level cultivator opponent was extremely tough to severe, depending on their profound strength that would also affect their skeleton strength; this Hunter Snow ck could even damage the ck celestium wallls with her body and she was tougher than even the golden bodies of most celestials.

    Ji Yuan had drained so much of his profound strength in his inner spiritual sea that even his deste cherubim had vanished on its own.

    His attacks however had sent the Hunter Snow ck into more screams and hissing.

    Although this was exhausting to Ji Yuan''s profound strength but he felt a great sense of satisfaction, "Darn, your limbs are too tough that I have to use 4 Sacred Pir Swords on you."

    Indeed, his arms and even fingers were shaking nonstop now.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed, "Kill me!!!"

    But Ji Yuan grinned nonchntly, "You old sow. I''ve decided to keep you alive until the end of this trial. In this way, then you won''t be able to respawn again. Hahaha¡­."

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed with shock, "What did you¡­just say?!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You didn''t hear me wrongly, you old sow. I''ve decided to camp here until the end of my trial."

    Then he chuckled, "You are better alive to me than dead."

 Chapter 903 The Third Day Of The Trial (4)

    ?

    Indeed, Ji Yuan had the intention to camp around the Hunter Snow ck and he had pinned her on the ck celestium wall with Xiang Li.

    But barely had he decided on this, he could hear hissing sounds.

    It was because several ck raptors could be seen along the passageways.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed at Ji Yuan, "All the profound raptors¡­ will being this way. If you don''t kill me now, you will¡­surely¡­ regret it. Ha¡­haha¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So fierce?!"

    The Hunter Snow ckughed coarsely and weakly from her injuries, "You are now marked by the profound mirror of darkness¡­ and Woke Empress Rey Pugpatine will not spare you!"

    Even as she had hissed this message, Ji Yuan had expertly sliced and exploded 2 ck raptors around him, even sent a wave of sword bursts to explode against the exploding acid harmlessly away.

    This was not as easy as it looked and required perfect timing, instinct andparable profound power.

    The Hunter Snow ck was startled that this Ji Yuan was such an expert sword cultivator.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Don''t look at me like this. I can''t afford to have you die by these ck raptors too."

    The Hunter Snow ck hummed coldly, "You won''t have the profound strength tost for even a few hours. And this trial willst for 2 more days."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he killed another ck raptor that shed at him, "We shall see and I love challenges like this."

    But he was lying of course; this Hunter Snow ck was actually right.

    At the rate these ck raptors keeping, he probably would not be able tost even an hour!

    These ck raptors were all 6th rank profound beasts and not low level profound beasts!

    "This Woke Empress Rey Pugpatine, who is she? And is she powerful?"

    He asked as he killed two more ck raptors.

    The Hunter Snow ckughed coarsely and she appeared to be more energetic when talking about her mistress, "The Woke Empress Pugpatine¡­ is extremely powerful and she can crush you like a puny ant! And she is famous for saying 3 things!"

    "Which is?" Ji Yuan asked as he finally killed off thest of the ck raptors as he breathlessly stabbed Anyang into the ground for support.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed andughed coarsely at the same time, sending Xiang Li to shake uncontroble on the wall with her tremblingugher. "She is a genius in everything. If you ask her how she knows¡­ she will tell you¡­ I just know¡­ I don''t know how I know¡­ is it hard?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "This is too exaggerating. You''re not kidding me, right?"

    The Hunter Snow ckughed even louder, "Worry about yourself first¡­"

    When she had said that, 9 more ck raptors had shed into the passageways.

    Ji Yuan was bleary eyed as he muttered, "This is endless¡­"

    Then he sat down with an exhausted look.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed with great delight, "So¡­ you are finally¡­ giving up¡­ because you have expended all your strength!"

    Ji Yuan ignored her as he sat down to gather all his sword intentions instead.

    Even though he may be exhausted but his fighting spirits still remained; he began to focus all his profound strength and sword intentions into his 9 divine swords to send them flying in all directions to attack the 9 ck raptors.

    At this moment, he did not have any profound strength left to use his more powerful sword domains anymore; his profound strength was literally bled to the death by these 6th rank ck raptors which required him to use his full profound strength to prate their armors and to severe their soul core.

    Anyang was now afraid: My lord, will you die?

    Xiang Li was wailing: I don''t want big brother to die. Why don''t we flee first and live to fight another day¡­

    Ji Yuan said weakly to them: I don''t think I can win the next time¡­<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan had quickly dispatched the 9 ck raptors but he was so exhausted that he had to close his eyes to conserve whatever little profound strength he had and he had also popped a replenishing profound pill too.

    The replenishing profound pill actually had only a little effect as Ji Yuan was continuously exercising his sword intentions which also cost him his profound strength.

    And also, profound pills are best used when not inbat as well.

    Even as Ji Yuan had closed his eyes, more and more ck raptors had once again turned up.

    He had arranged his 9 flying swords like an array around him and he made sure that the ck raptors were killed before they even had the chance to be close to him as he did not have the profound strength to wield even Anyang now.

    What the heck?

    There are more of these ck raptors?

    Ji Yuan wanted to endure as much as possible until the next trial or till he had no other choice but to flee from this ce.

    But at this rate these ck raptors kepting his way, he would not have the chance to evenst till to the next hour¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Heng Wujian did not turn back to look for Ji Yuan.

    It was because he feared that even Ji Yuan was now dead and he was killed by the Hunter Snow ck.

    He saluted silently to Ji Yuan''s sacrifice and muttered a quick prayer to the Great Beyond Goddess for him, "Ji Yuan, you are indeed a hero. May your soul find peace in the bosoms of the Great Beyond Goddess."

    He had to continue his way, even though it was going to be a lonely path. But the path of cultivation has always been lonely, especially at the peak; even love ones are abandoned if they fail to reach the peak with the lonely cultivator.

    Heng Wujian must now stand alone at the peak.

    The burden of all his dead team members now rested upon his shoulders and it was extremely heavy.

    But for the sake of the dead champions in his team that had sacrificed to bring him through to the next trial, he must persist till to thest and not be caught by the Hunter Snow ck.

    Especially so in front of his Divine Consort Fu Rong who must be wishing for his sess; only the top 6 champions in the final trial would be victorious and this would in turn lead to the great honor of their patron divine consorts as well.

    He did not know that right now, his Divine Consort Fu Rong was flushed with anger as she said to the other divine consorts. "I have no champion that runs away in the face of dangers! This Heng Wujian is too detestable! The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan on the other hand, is the hero of my heart¡­ he has even managed to defeat the Hunter Snow ck twice!"

    Elsewhere, all the divine consorts and the rest of the spectators were all discussing hotly and excitedly when they saw the fight that was between Ji Yuan and the Hunter Snow ck.

    Instead of killing the Hunter Snow ck, Ji Yuan was now camping around her as he killed one ck raptors after another that were alling after him.

    But they could see that Ji Yuan was so exhausted eventually that he had to close his eyes to sit down as he relied on his flying swords to kill and to keep the ck raptors at bay.

    It was as though the entire poption of ck raptors inside the ck pyramid were alling after Ji Yuan now.

    Everyone was fearful for Ji Yuan now¡­

    Even Destiny was trembling now and she was staring at the battle imagery silently: He won''tst any longer. Should I be intervening?

 Chapter 904 Little Yui The Dark Sword

    ?

    Ji Yuan had sent his flying swords to fly to attack the dark raptors that were around him.

    But it seemed that these dark raptors were now able to predict his projectile speed and even avoided his flying swords even it was aimed at them.

    Once his flying swords had missed, it would require time for him to gather them to attack a moving target again and these ck raptors were not stationary at all.

    The aim of these ck raptors was quite clear, to kill him or the Hunter Snow ck behind his back.

    Ji Yuan was forced to open his eyes to deliver a strike with Anyang against a ck raptor that got too close to him and all his other flying swords had already been dispatched by him against the other ck raptors.

    To Ji Yuan astonished surprise, he actually had the profound strength to deliver a deadly strike against this ck raptor and even sent it flying away.

    He then dispatched of this same ck raptor by killing it with a flying divine sword as it exploded in a mixture of profound energies and acid.

    I still have some profound strength?

    He looked a little astonished.

    In fact, he looked a little refreshed after a short rest and his fingers were no longer trembling as hard now.

    He quickly double down on killing the rest of the ck raptors with his flying swords before waiting for the next wave of impeding attack that could ur.

    It must be noted that these ck raptors were 6th rank profound beasts and even a powerful 7th cultivation realm great saint may not be able to handle several at the same time.

    Needless to say, a weaker saint or even a weak great saint may even get kill by them.

    It was because the armors of these ck raptors were really thick and also protected by their profound aura so a considerable amount of profound power must be used with their profound strength to hurt these ck raptors.

    For 6th rank profound beasts, it is generally rmended for a group of 6th realm cultivators to bring one together while it is not rmended for any cultivators that were below the 6th cultivation realm to even try due tock of profound strength to hurt it.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were also in disbelief as they could see that the once blue ocean of Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea had turned dark, a sign that he had almost exhausted all his spiritual aura in his soul sea.

    Xiang Li said woefully: I have heard that once a cultivator is near death, they will be able to exert themselves for a time being. This near-death experience sign is called the temporary restitute of your once glorious state but after experiencing this, big brother will soon die¡­

    Anyang nodded woefully: Xiang Li, it is exactly as you have just said. To think that you even know this.

    She sighed mncholy before continuing: Sometimes the temporary restitute or return to temporary glory will even give the cultivator a 30% more profound strength but this is only an illusion. The increase profound strength will only hasten the death of the cultivator. It is like in a freezing winter, a person will start to feel warm and take off their clothing because they ''think'' that it is so warm¡­

    Ji Yuan was startled: Does this means that I am amp that will soon exhaust my oil? I am going to die soon?!

    Jiajia, that means that I can''t live to see you again¡­

    My Jiajia¡­

    I can''t fulfill my pledge to you anymore¡­

    The spirit manifestation of Aura had suddenly rose from below the darkened spiritual sea: Big sisters¡­ mast-ter¡­ what are you talking about huh?

    She looks puzzled before adding: Aura is working very hard to help¡­ master¡­ to replenish his inner spiritual sea¡­ with the golden sun¡­ but I heard something¡­ is masstter¡­ going to die soon?

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang were all looking quite sheepishly as they all pretended that the conversation earlier never happened before.

    Aura said: Masster¡­ there is another¡­ thing¡­

    Ji Yuan interrupted her by pretending tough: Haha, we all know it is all thanks to you, Aura¡­ haha¡­ you can go back to your job now.

    Aura had a perplexed look before disappearing into the darkened inner spiritual sea.

    The truth was, they had all forgotten about Aura.

    However, one thing was for sure to Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang; this little Aura here can really replenish Ji Yuan''s profound strength with a noticeable effect and she is more powerful than any elixir. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But on a second take, there are scarcely any difference between an elixir and a divine tree, especially when an elixir requires severalbinations of spirit nts to make while a divine tree is also a spirit nt.

    Actually, Aura was trying to point out to Ji Yuan before she got interrupted that beside her, a dark sword next to her was seemingly absorbing the dissipate soul energies of the dead raptors and it was also lending strength to Ji Yuan by increasing the profound power of his sword arts.

    However, this dark sword was still weak and had notpletely revived yet.

    But by killing these dark raptors, this dark sword was absorbing their soul energies to revive itself.

    This dark sword appeared to be sentient and had said to Aura: Little Sister, can you lend me some of your spiritual strength that you have gained from your golden sun?

    Aura giggled: Sur¡­sure! What is the name of this¡­ little sister¡­ here? I am... called Aura.

    This dark sword had taken the form of a little girl in front of Aura.

    I am¡­ Yui¡­ Little Yui¡­ my master used to call me this¡­ but¡­

    Little Yui was mncholy suddenly: But my master seems to have forgotten about me now¡­

    Aura giggled: Woah. Little sister you can take the shape now. I wish I can¡­

    Little Yui faintly smiled: I can teach Aura how to take the shape in the future.

    Aura was delighted: Rea...lly? That''s good!

    Then she quickly said when realizing that she had gone off tracked: Then why don''t you¡­ remind your mas¡­ ster?

    Little Yui sobbed: I am a¡­ broken sword now¡­ and I am also not strong enough to surface.

    Aura pondered for a while before asking: Maybe¡­ mistress is able to help you.

    Little Yui quickly shook her head, "I am afraid of¡­ your mistress¡­ she kills my master¡­"

    Then she had fled and returned to a dark sword again.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was once again sending his flying swords against the next wave of ck raptors once again as he found renewed strength from Aura.

    This new wave consisted of 12 ck raptors and more than what his 9 divine swords could handle.

    So he flung them back with his Divine Sword Anyang.

    The Hunter Snow ck hissed mockingly, "You should be nearly your end now¡­ this is merely a temporary restitute of your profound strength and you will soon die¡­ hahahahaha¡­ if you kill me now, you may still live for another 6 hours¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly punched her ck helm with his fist, "Shut up!"

    Then he had turned around to throw Anyang at an iing ck raptor,pletely piercing through its body with his Sacred Pir Sword and killing another ck raptor that was behind as well.

    In the next blink of an eye, Anyang had already flown back to his hand and the double halo that was on her was extremely glorious.

    The Hunter Snow ck was shocked that Ji Yuan was still able to use another miracle profound art right in front of her eyes¡­

 Chapter 905 The Warrior-God Ji Yuan

    ?

    All the divine consorts and the spectators were riveted in just a battle imagery and that was the battle imagery that Ji Yuan was in.

    It was because he had fought against 20 waves of the dark raptors by now.

    At first it was just 10 dark raptors.

    Then it became 20 dark raptors¡­

    30 dark raptors¡­

    50 dark raptors¡­

    100 dark raptors¡­

    200 dark raptors were killed by Ji Yuan and only 6 hours had passed when he had pinned the Hunter Snow ck to the wall.

    They saw that Ji Yuan was looking exhausted and he was still keep fighting with his flying swords and with the divine sword that was in his head.

    His steps were no long steadied but he had continued to keep on fighting!

    "Did you all see this?"

    "Is it even possible to kill 10 of these dark raptors that attacked at the same time?"

    "200 dark raptors are killed now¡­ and more are stilling¡­"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has got up again! He is fighting again!"

    "If I were Great Spiritas Hero, I would flee first¡­"

    "This is too insane¡­"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan can''t even stand steady now¡­"

    "Yeah and he is taking more than 3 strokes to kill a dark raptor now, instead of 1 or 2 strokes now¡­"

    "He is bloodied now¡­"

    "The dark raptors had struck him across his body and almost rip him apart¡­"

    "Why is Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan''s trial so hard and so different?"

    "Just how many dark raptors are there?"

    "What the cooldown to respawn these dark raptors?"

    "Is the trial cheating?"

    All over the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, the ticket prices were all skyrocketing as more and more people wanted to watch the heroism of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and his tenacity fight against the dark raptors.

    But the seats were all full because no one wanted to give up their seats.

    Many people had actually wanted to save their spirit stones for the final trial but they had all changed their minds and were buying tickets to watch this fight instead.

    Last minute sky tforms were erected over the colosseums across the 12 major cities to double the capacity for the spectators but soon it was not enough.

    It was because Ji Yuan had fullysted for a day and it was now the 4th day and thest day of the trial.

    And he had in 1000 dark raptors by the end of the third day!

    Everyone was in disbelief as Ji Yuan seemed to falter but he could keep on fighting back.

    His entire body was covered with his golden blood!

    There were all too many times that Destiny had wanted to intervene as she continued on with great horrified looks.

    Bai Qianfeng who was a spectator in the colosseum was stunned and she was afraid of losing Ji Yuan¡­

    So did Feng Minyue and Little Princess that were in a different colosseum from her; their tender hearts could not bear to watch the scene but they had to because it was their lord Ji Yuan that was in there!

    The White Sword Monarch who was in another colosseum was also in great disbelief as Ji Yuan had obviously gone beyond his normal ability to fight and he was starting to miss very badly.

    He had taught Ji Yuan his great endurance but this was even beyond his normal barbaric teaching¡­

    "Little rascal! Give it up! Stupid! If a more powerful profound beastes along, you will be killed instantly! You can no longer fight and just fighting through your sheer endurance¡­"

    Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were both in tears as they watched the battle imagery in the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City.

    Even Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun and Little Jie''Er were in tears too.

    "Yuan Beluga¡­"

    "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    Although Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was not in tears yet but she was shaking nonstop and almost to the brink of tears.

    As for the hundreds of their female spiritas followers, many had broken down in tears already.

    Elsewhere even the other divine consorts were wet with tears as they witnessed the heroics of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan as he continued to fight on like a true warrior-god!

    Divine Consort Fu Rong was weeping for him and cursing Heng Wujian for abandoning the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang, Divine Consort Atnta and Divine Consort Aiel the three most influential divine consorts in the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad were all bleary eyed and rooting for Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually the champion of Xu Yifei but she was in close seclusion now and could not witness his trial or she would burst into tears immediately.

    It was now the 4th day.

    Ji Yuan now required at least 5 strokes to kill his opponent and he would miss often; even his flying swords were not as urate as before.

    But he continued to fight on with just his sheer willpower.

    It was because he had made a pledge to be with Jiajia and he cannot die in this ce!

    The colosseums were now exploding to three times its full capacity as many sky tforms were built.

    The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan had now killed 1200 dark raptors!

    More hours passed.

    The battle goes on and the waves of dark raptors continued.

    1400 dark raptors were now dead.

    1500 dark raptors!

    1600 dark raptors¡­

    1700 dark raptors¡­

    8 hours remaining until the trial was over.

    1800 dark raptors were killed!

    1900 dark raptors¡­

    2000 dark raptors¡­

    The spectators were angry at the trial.

    "This trial must be cheating!"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is being struck again¡­"

    "Even when the acid explosion exploded on his beautiful face, he was still trying to prevent the Hunter Snow ck from being killed¡­"

    "If he could endure to thest 6 hours then he can leave this Hunter Snow ck to the death already¡­."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "That''s right. The Hunter Snow ck needs 6 hours to respawn¡­"

    7 hours¡­

    2100 dark raptors were now dead¡­

    "Howe the raptor numbers seem to be tens of times more than the other ck pyramids?!"

    "It is as though the trial wants to kill the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­"

    6 hours left¡­

    Ji Yuan waspletely dazed now and he was fighting through with just his sheer willpower which relied on his mental level of his Natural Instinct.

    But even then, his current mental level of the Natural Instinct was not enough and he had broken through to the Ultra Instinct mental level which was not even described in his Divine Heart Recite.

    Although Ji Yuan had lost his sharpness and precision, he was still able to fight barely with the mental level of the Ultra Instinct pushing him forward with his weakened profound strength.

    Sword intentions were actually extremely mentally draining to a cultivator too and Ji Yuan had been using his sword intentions for the use of the flying swords domain for almost 2 days now.

    He was physically, mentally and spiritually exhausted at the same time!

    "6 hours left¡­"

    Ji Yuan had actually timed the trial since the very start.

    With an exhausted grin, Ji Yuan pulled Xiang Li out from the armored chest of the Hunter Snow ck, causing her to drop with a crash to the ground. "Haha, you can die now¡­ you can let your minions kill you, I don''t mind now¡­"

    But he did not even have the strength to deliver a final blow to the Hunter Snow ck.

    He just had a little profound strength left and he used it to quickly withdraw all his divine swords before fleeing down the passageway.

    He thought: This is too awkward to my face. The spectators must be booing at me for running away¡­

    But he did not care as his objective was to prevent the Hunter Snow ck from respawning back to kill and hunt him down.

    As he fled, dozens of dark raptors began to chase him down.

    It was obvious that Ji Yuan''s speed had slowed down quite a lot and he was much slower now.

    Ji Yuan''s Ultra Sword Spirit had alsopletely vanished as he hadpletely exhausted his sword spirit for the very time and he could not use it for the next couple of days.

    Without his sword spirit, he could not even use any of his sword domains. But even if he had his sword spirit, he still could not be able to use his sword domains as he had alsopletely depleted his willpower and he was actually half dozing off with exhaustion.

    He popped in his 20th replenishing profound pill that he had eaten over the past 2 days even though it had little effect as he fled down the passageway.

    "Crap! That is myst replenishing profound pill now and I have tost for another 6 hours¡­"

    In the next 6 hours, Ji Yuan disyed a heaven-step divine sword from one of his flying swords to ughter his way out through the passageways.

    The reason why he was not using Xiang Li or Anyang now were because he did not have the profound strength to wield them anymore.

    One must know that once a certain limit in profound strength is hit, the increase in return gets smaller and smaller.

    Even this was Aura''s limit in helping Ji Yuan to replenish his profound strength.

    Right now Ji Yuan was simply using his profound strength for running.

    Unlike most cultivators that powered their movement with internal profound arts that in turn required plenty of profound strength, Ji Yuan was a natural runner and his movement required only his physical strength and not his profound strength.

    In the past, he was not kidding about his movement speed being in the top 5 except that he had neglected to mention if his opponent did not use any internal profound art, that is.

    In the remainingst 5 hours, he had killed 9 dark raptors.

    In the remainingst 4 hours, he had killed only 4 dark raptors.

    This led to many spectators to think that the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan had indeed exhausted himself for he could not even run straight and had even bang against the wall while running.

    In the remainingst 3 hours, Ji Yuan had killed 9 dark raptors again.

    Many spectators were sighing heavily; the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan was merely struggling to beat off the dark raptors and this time round he got more injuries. Also there were even 2 explosive acids that got to his back.

    In thest remainingst 2 hours, Ji Yuan had killed 50 dark raptors and he was suddenly looking spirited.

    It was because Ji Yuan had regained some of his profound strength after 3 hours of running, all thanks to Aura.

    And for thest remaining 1 hour, he had killed 100 dark raptors along the way, doubling the number of dark raptors.

    Ji Yuan''s kill rate versus the dark raptors were more than 100 times more than the next highest kill champion, and even more than 1000 times better than lowest kill cultivator!

    One must know that there were many champions with only 1 kill or even 0 kill and Ji Yuan had ughtered more than 2300 dark raptors, which was an insane number of profound beasts!

    The Trial Spirit announced rather unwillingly, "The third trial is over now. All the surviving champions will be sent back to their arenas and have 3 days of break."

    When Ji Yuan was still running along the passageway when this announcement by the Spirit Trial was heard and he immediately fell down t on the ground with a relief.

    He literally banged his way down onto the ground in great exhaustion.

    All the spectators were checking Ji Yuan''s status and were delighted that he was still alive.

    "He is alive!"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan is still alive!"

    Across all the colosseums and divine temples; the spectators, the divine consorts and their female followers were all in hot tears and happiness when they had learnt that Ji Yuan was still alive.

    And then someone or many people in the colosseums were shouting, "Warrior-God Ji Yuan! Warrior-God Ji Yuan!"

    This quickly caught on throughout the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad even though there were nomunications except for the divine consorts in the divine temples to do so as all the spectators were standing up in loud deafening chants, "Warrior-God Ji Yuan! Warrior-God Ji Yuan!"

    The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan had now been upgraded to the legendary Warrior-God status that even their spiritas heroes have been forbidden to hold because this was once the title of the True Devil God.

    This had even caught on by the many female followers of the divine consorts in the divine temples as they chanted with great delight even though they were not supposed to make noises in the sacred sanctuary of the divine temples without the permission of their divine consorts.

    "Warrior-God Ji Yuan! Warrior-God Ji Yuan!"

    And even many of the divine consorts were chanting the same as well!

    Divine Consort Fu Rong, Divine Consort Aiel, Divine Consort Atnta and many other divine consorts.

    Even the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang too.

    All the divine consorts like Ding Jie''Er, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were naturally pping and screaming with joy that Ji Yuan had survived the trial.

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had copsed into each other arms, with joyous tears that Ji Yuan had survived the trial.

    Yang Mi was so intense on using her divine sense to track Ji Yuan that she had forgotten to check for her Sister Chu Lixue''s well-being.

    They hadpletely forgotten that beside Ji Yuan, there were also the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and even Xiao Muhan who were also in the trial as well.

    Even Destiny had broken in cold sweat on her back as she stared at the battle imagery for 2 days an she had extended her divine sense to check for Ji Yuan''s life pulses constantly.

    Little Princess and Feng Minyue heaved a deep sigh of relief when the trial was finally over¡­

    Bai Qianfeng on the other hand was boiling with rage; she wanted to destroy the entire Spiritas Tower!

    It was obvious to her that only Ji Yuan''s team got the hardest difficulty; the number of dark raptors encountered did not even exceed 50 in most cases and some teams even got less than that.

    Moreover, the Hunter Snow ck that was in the same ck pyramid as Ji Yuan, spawned with 7 dark raptors too.

    This caused her to be enraged!

 Chapter 906 The Third Trial Is Over

    ?

    The Greater Spirit Realm.

    The Goddess Ai Tina heaved a soft sign of relief when Ji Yuan had survived the trial and she was panicky looking at Achilles who was inspecting the profound arrays of the Spiritas Tower.

    "What did you find out?"

    Achilles shook at head as he looked at the Goddess Ai Tina, the Immortal Divine Consort Tang Li and the other immortal divine consorts. "The Spiritas Tower seems to have a will on its own and is controlling the trials now. And also, you are right. There is indeed a powerful profound darkness of an unknown origin that is inside¡­"

    Then he sighed heavily, "Unfortunately, I am unable to tell if this is part of the Spiritas Tower or not. As for now, we can only wait for the trials to finish first."

    The Goddess Ai Tina asked, "You mean we can''t control the Spiritas Tower at all?"

    Achilles nodded, "It is a True Divinity immortal profound treasure. It is difficult for us to control it in the first ce even if we are immortals. The Supreme Divine Gods are able to control it because they have 6 and they have ced their powerful arrays in there. For us, we can''t use their profound arrays nor do we have theirbined profound strength too to control the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    Then he added weakly, "But one thing is for sure. This Spiritas Tower seems to hate the Supreme Divine Gods a lot and have even destroyed their profound arrays. And I can even feel this intense hatred for me."

    The Goddess Ai Tina muttered weakly, "What shall we do now¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan found himself back to his city-state arena again after the trial was announced finished.

    The Trial Spirit had announced, "110 Champions has survived to the fourth trial. You may have your 3 days break now."

    He was literally t on the ground when he got teleported back because it was the exact posture that he was at the ck pyramid.

    When he looked up with his hazy vision, he saw that there were 9 other champions that have survived through the third trial.

    Among them was Old Yang Batian who looked shocked as he saw the bloodied Ji Yuan who looked half-dead, "Ji Yuan, what happens to you during your trial?"

    He was not the only one that had also surrounded him to ask him the same question.

    Next to him were his Senior Sister Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan as well.

    Ji Yuan was shocked to see Xiao Muhan again and it seemed to him that he was barely injured at all.

    The same happened for his senior sister as well.

    Chu Lixue gasped with shocked, "Ji Yuan, what happens to you? Are you alright?"

    She had immediately fed him a profound pill to treat his injuries.

    Ji Yuan felt slightly better but only slightly better because he had eaten too many profound pills in such a short time. "Senior sister, do you have more replenishing profound pills? I have finished mine."

    Chu Lixue, Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    They looked shocked because they knew that the divine consorts had given him quite a few of the powerful replenishing profound pills and Ji Yuan had told them that he had consumed them all?

    They were with Ji Yuan for the first and the second trial so they know that he did not consume them during the first two trials.

    But to consume more than 20 powerful replenishing profound pills were too exaggerating!

    Chu Lixue said unhappily, "I think you have just wasted my profound pill! Do you know that you shouldn''t consume so many profound pills at the same time? This is bad for you¡­"

    Xiao Muhan was about to rebuke Ji Yuan and told him about the bad effects of consuming so many profound pills when Chu Lixue continued to say unhappily, "Why are you like Xiao Muhan? The two of you are wasting profound pills like it is water!"

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan answered almost at the same time, "I didn''t have a choice¡­"

    Then Ji Yuan stared at Xiao Muhan, "Brother Xiao Muhan, why aren''t you dead yet? Do you know that I have already said my prayers to you in the heavens? And I have even shed a tear for you!"

    Xiao Muhan frowned unhappily as he looked at the bloodied Ji Yuan, "You mean your crocodile tear? And what exactly happened to you?"

    It was as though Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan both went on a different trial, only that Ji Yuan''s trial was much harder.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "That is not the point. The point is how the heck are you alive when I was almost killed?"

    Xiao Muhan looked a little sheepish as he answered Ji Yuan, "I guess that I was lucky to be in the same team as Maiden Shui Xisi."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "Sisi?! You saw her?!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had sat up and he was grabbing hold of Xiao Muhan, "How is Sisi?! Is she alright?"

    Chu Lixue hummed coldly, "Weird, you didn''t ask if I am alright."

    Ji Yuan turned to her with a weak look, "I can actually see with my own eyes that my senior sister¡­ erm¡­ looks perfectly alright."

    But Chu Lixue continued to hum, "You are still far away from being a romantic cultivator!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    What does being a romantic cultivator got to do with this?

    Actually, Chu Lixue was hoping that Ji Yuan would show her a little concern but he was too dense to ask show her his concern for him.

    Even if she is alright, she would expect Ji Yuan to show her his ''fake concerns''.

    But Ji Yuan was in no mood to second guessed his senior sister for now and he was too busy shaking Xiao Muan for an answer, "Answer me quick! Is she alright?"

    His question was extremely crude and direct.

    Xiao Muhan caught hold of Ji Yuan and said, "Don''t be so panicky. Of course, she is alright. In fact, she has protected me during the trial. I must say that I was so lucky to have her in my team during the trial."

    Ji Yuan heaved a soft sigh of relief, "She is alright. That''s good to hear¡­"

    Then he muttered weakly, "She must have it hard too¡­ how the heck can she survive the Hunter Snow ck? She is so tactless¡­"

    Xiao Muhan said a little awkwardly, "She killed the Hunter Snow ck 4 times in a row and she was searching everywhere for the hunter in order to make more kills. And all I need to do is to just follow her. Hahahaha¡­ I didn''t know that Maiden Shui Xisi is such a strong cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Of course she is strong. She is the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce, you idiot. And the Water Melody Pce is one of the 3 most forbidden holy grounds of our Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    But what the heck that Sisi can kill the Hunter Snow ck 4 times?!

    Are we even fighting the same difficulty of the trial? That Hunter Snow ck was apanied by 7 ck raptors. Even if she alone was capable but I don''t believe that you can even survive a single raptor attack¡­

    Ji Yuan naturally did not know that all the other teams'' Hunter Snow ck was almost a lone hunter unlike his trial where he had to consume double the profound strength to get rid of the dark raptors that apanied the Hunter Snow ck.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Why Sisi isn''t in my team¡­ howe I didn''t know she is this strong?!"

    But all of a sudden, Ji Yuan was frowning; it was because he had suddenly remembered that Shui Xisi had shed a True Divinity sword and the profound power of her divine sword could even knock back the guardians of the Goddess Star Pce.

    He had thought of fighting Jiajia again after he was out of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth since he believed that he could now best Jiajia.

    Since Sisi is Jiajia''s sister, then as long as he can best Sisi then he can also best Jiajia, right?

    Sisi, you can''t be this strong. Am I right?

    If Jiajia can still beat me, I will go eat shit¡­

    When he had said that, he had copsed into a deep sleep into the arms of his Senior Sister Chu Lixue.

    He hadpletely spent himself during the third trial and he was actually struggling to stay awake.

    When he knows that his senior sister, Xiao Muhan and even Sisi were all alright, his heart wasforted and he had finally let go of his stubborn will to sumb into a rest.

    Chu Lixue had a look of disbelief as she held onto Ji Yuan, "He can stay awake for 3 days just to chat with Maiden Ling Feiyue but for me, he just wants to sleep¡­"

    Although she was sarcastic, she still quietly dressed Ji Yuan''s wounds for him while he had sumbed into a deep sleep.

    Chu Lixue could actually see that Ji Yuan had a hard time inside his trial and she was horrified to see wounds all over his body¡­.

    Xiao Muhan was equally horrified when he saw Ji Yuan''s wounds, "Is he even human? Even his bones can be seen¡­ I can''t believe that I was talking to him like it is normal just now¡­"

 Chapter 907 Number 1 And Her Friends

    ?

    6th Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth level of the final trial.

    A gigantic looming 7th rank profound beast 25m in height with armor as thick as the length of a sword and also spikes 3 times the length of any swords on it, were chasing a group of 3 cultivators.

    These 3 cultivators were running away from their dear lives as this gigantic profound beast suppressed them with its profound aura, causing them to struggle in running away from it.

    The 3 cultivators were Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming.

    Even though Shen Qin was a holy saint but he was still being suppressed by the profound aura of this gigantic profound beast. As a matter of fact, his profound strength was no better than Li Ye who was a 5th realm cultivator due to his ''less hardworking'' efforts in cultivating.

    Li Ye was a strong cultivator and also an ascended cultivator who hade from the lower mortal realm, hence he was stronger than most other cultivators of his same cultivation realm as he had to face the ascended tribtion which would also strengthen him.

    As for Guo Taiming, he was a 6th realm cultivator and he was considered to be the weakest of the trio.

    But even if there were 30 of them, they would not be able to fight off this 7th rank profound beast together and they were all running away from their dear lives, and barely surviving.

    Luckily for them, the monster was too big and there were many small crevices in the mountains for them to tunnel through like rats.

    They were nowmenting why they were so unlucky in encountering a dangerous profound beast in this wilderness.

    Shen Qin reminded them bitterly as he ran like he had never ran before, "We have to use our golden talismans. This monster¡­ keeps draining¡­ our profound strength¡­. with its intense profound aura and¡­ we are near exhaustion¡­"

    As for Li Ye and Guo Taiming, they could not even answer him because they had no strength to answer him and they merely hummed to agree with him.

    But all of a sudden, they were the profound beast wailed thunderously and had suddenly turned around.

    This startled them as they were all on the brink of exhaustion.

    When they looked up again after the shadow of the profound beast was gone, they were quite startled and delighted to see that it was Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao that had appeared.

    Shen Qin gasped with great delight, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao! It is you again! Where did you go all this while?"

    Then he panicky shouted to her, "Get away from here while you can! Did you see that terrible profound beast earlier? It may still return! Run while you can and don''t bother with us!"

    Guo Taiming and Li Ye were also prompting her to do the same, "Maiden Ding, please get away from here! It is dangerous!"

    The three of them were trapped in the valley below while Ding Xiaoxiao was up the cliff, so she may still escape from here.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled as she jumped down from the cliff, startling Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye.

    Guo Taiming stammered, "Maiden Ding, why did you jump down for? Now you are as screwed as us¡­ we are all going to die here¡­. Do you still have your golden talisman?"

    Li Ye said heroically, "If you have used up yours, then I shall give you mine and I will run alone!"

    Shen Qin mustered the courage to say too, "Take my golden talisman! I shall be the one that should do the running!"

    They had all thought that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was only a 5th realm golden celestial and she had purposely disyed her profound animus as such.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled gently, "The monster won''t be returning anytime soon. I saw it going after an easier target when I was up there. We are safe for now."

    The truth was that she had stabbed it hard with one blow of her scabbard from behind and this freaked the 7th profound beast away.

    Because Ding Xiaoxiao did not use her full profound strength, the 3 of them did not sense her profound attack.

    If Ding Xiaoxiao wants to, she can easily kill this 7th rank profound beast with a single blow but this was something that she had restrained to.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shen Qin sighed as he looked at her with a woeful look, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, why did you leave us that night?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I didn''t want to bother anyone of you. So, I''ve decided to look for Ji Yuan on my own."

    "You have found my Brother Ji Yuan or did not?" Shen Qin asked curiously.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she nodded lightly, "I have indeed found him in one of the trials. But I have left the trial halfway¡­"

    Li Ye quickly said to her encouraging, "Don''t worry. There is always a next time. The trials here are unsuitable for 5th realm cultivators like us."

    That was why Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin did not dare to enter into any of the portals and they were showing their faces just in case they would meet a cultivator from their celestial fraternity so that they could show offter that they had indeed been to the final level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Unfortunately for them, they were unlucky today to have met with a powerful profound beast in the wilderness today and they were not even trying to pluck any spirit nts!

    Guo Taiming seized the opportunity to say, "I''m not surprised that you can''t stand Ji Yuan in the trial and had to leave halfway. Even I can''t stand him when I am taking a trial with him. He is so suspicious of anything and he is a pure trouble maker. You have no idea how many powerful cultivators that he had offended during a trial with his mindless big mouth. He can be more arrogant than even the arrogant young masters sometimes. Muhahaha¡­"

    When Shen Qin had heard him, he was smiling bitterly.

    It was because he was that arrogant young master except that he did not meet Ji Yuan inside a trial but in a city.

    At that time Ji Yuan had even force him to pay for his purchases but this was not the end of the story; next Ji Yuan was crazy enough to make him and his celestial sect to attack all the other major unorthodox sects in the city as well.

    As Shen Qin did not want to offend Ji Yuan, he had be his ''Brother'' instead.

    Shen Qin asked her with a weak look, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, erm¡­ will you group with us now that we have met you again?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she nodded lightly, "I''ve been looking for you all after I''ve found Ji Yuan."

    When she had said this, Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye were all delighted.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had told Ji Yuan that before she left, she would return to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to look for a group of friends. But she had neglected to mention to him that Ji Yuan also knows her ''friends''.

    It was easy for her to find them because she had actually nted her profound tracker on them and they did not realize it.

    The reason why Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is back to this group is because they had helped her along the way and she had a good fight with Ji Yuan.

    The least that she could do is to ensure that they would be safe in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth while she is also here.

    She did not want to owe anyone anything so she considered this a debt that she has owed to them for helping her inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Shen Qin had suddenly said to her with an awkward look, "I wonder if Maiden Ding is willing toe with me to the celestial sect¡­ to be my consort? I can better take care of you and even give you all the cultivation resources for you to continue cultivating. I may be an unorthodox cultivator but I am a good man."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was startled, "Huh?!"

    She was not the only one that was startled; this included Li Ye and Guo Taiming as well.

 Chapter 908 Prelude To The Fourth Trial

    ?

    In the arena where Ji Yuan was.

    It was the third day when Ji Yuan was abruptly awakened by his Senior Sister Chu Lixue.

    He had fallen into a deep cultivation sleep and if his senior sister had not awakened him, he would not be able to wake up.

    Ji Yuan saw that he had barely regained 1/3 of his profound strength in his inner spiritual sea.

    This may be the case but he had also noticed that his inner spiritual sea was much denser than ever before.

    And he could feel that he was much stronger than before.

    This had to do with Aura and his battles in thest trial.

    No matter how exhausted a cultivator was, there was always a reserve of 10% that would resist being used unless in the most extremely cases when it was forced upon by circumstances of life and death rather than being forcefully drawn upon.

    To hit this limit was extremely limit but when this limit was hit, the cultivator''s profound strength would show an improvement the next time.

    Also, there was something else that not even Ji Yuan or Aura was aware of

    In order for Aura to replenish Ji Yuan with the pure spiritual aura from the Golden Natal Divine Pearl, Ji Yuan would have topletely deplete his inner spiritual sea in the first ce.

    Or else, it would be like mixing two types of oil as one and hoping to get the purer one.

    Before this, there was no opportunity for Ji Yuan to tap into the Golden Natal Divine Pearl as he did not have the cultivation realm to even use it and now it was made possible by Aura in an idental way.

    One must know that this Golden Natal Divine Pearl is a true divinity profound treasure that was granted by the Great Beyond Goddess to Old Reverend Beiyuan. So even if the owner is an immortal, they may not necessary be able to use it as their own even after thousands of years of cultivation.

    And Aura has a mistress that could teach her how to realize her potential as well as aiding Ji Yuan in secret on using this Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was actually using her profound strength from the Great Beyond to slowly release the rich spiritual aura of the Goden Natal Divine Pearl for Ji Yuan but it was difficult even for her as the two types of spiritual auras in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea did not mix well.

    Thenes Aura and this little divine tree was the key.

    "Little rascal. So, you''ve finally decided to wake up?" Chu Lixue hummed but deep inside her, she was secretly delighted.

    The first thing that Ji Yuan saw when he opened his eyes was the divine smile of his senior sister and he was delighted as well, "Senior sister, how long have I been sleeping?"

    He could feel his entire body was sore but luckily for him, as a peaked great saint, all his wounds were healing and he even got a couple of dressing on his wounds.

    Needless to say, he knows that he had been bandaged by his Senior Sister Chu Lixue because Xiao Muhan could not even bandage a dressing well.

    Xiao Muhan grinned at him, "Three days! You have been sleeping for 3 days! And the next trial is also starting soon!"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he turned to Xiao Muhan, "I didn''t ask you, Brother Xiao Muhan."

    Xiao Muhan ignored his cold remarks andughed, "What is the difference?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Because you''re an old goat."

    Xiao Muhanughed too, not offended by Ji Yuan. "That is because you''re also an old goat and you want to eat tender grass."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud too.

    And hisughter invoked some annoyed look from the other champions in the arena.

    Other than Old Yang Batian, there were 5 other champions in the arena.

    Altogether there were 9 champions in this arena.

    Old Yang Batian was a champion of Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was a champion of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    Xiao Muhan was a champion of Divine Consort Sun Dingjun.

    Ji Yuan was a champion of Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    2 of the champions were champion of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin.

    2 were champions of Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    Thest remaining champion was a champion of Sun Dingjun, the same as Xiao Muhan.

    All the divine consorts in the arena barely had a representation and it seemed that the divine consorts Ding Jie''Er and Xu Yifei were all barely able to make it through to the fourth trial with only 1 champion remaining.

    However even though Ding Jie''Er and Xu Yifei only had one champion left to represent them but Old Yang Batian and Ji Yuan were both strong cultivators.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled weakly to Ji Yuan with a flustered look, "Ji Yuan, you have embarrassed us long enough. Please keep your voice down."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "In what way? I am curious to know."

    Xiao Muhan chuckled as he said, "When you are having your cultivation sleep, you snorted loudly like a pig and you disturb the cultivation rest of everyone in the arena."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Should I apologize to everyone then?"

    Xiao Muhan grinned, "That isn''t all to it."

    "What the heck?! It isn''t all?" Ji Yuan was astonished. "How the heck did I offend everyone during my sleep?!"

    Xiao Muhan turned to look at Chu Lixue, barely suppressing hisughter before he turned to say with a look of awkwardness at Ji Yuan. "You keep calling out Jiajia in your dreams and you keep saying lewd things. In short, you have a wet dream and you have been sharing with everyone in this arena."

    When he had said that, Chu Lixue was flushed with a rosyplexion.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He put on a thick face to ask, "In what way am I lewd? Do you mind if you are able to¡­ erm share with me?"

    Chu Lixue interrupted with a look of disbelief, "You don''t want to know how horny you are."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­"

    But he was quickly shouting in his soul sea: Xiang Li! Anyang! What exactly did I say?! Hurry and tell me!

    This is the advantage of having a sentient spirit entity; they are able to tell a cultivator what has happened even if they are unconscious!

    Xiang Li giggled jovially: Big Brother, you don''t want to know what has happened¡­

    Even Anyang was saying awkwardly: My lord, you really don''t want to know what has happened¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled loudly as she continued with more giggles, "You bang Jiajia so hard and so many times that she is literally begging you for more."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, I thought that you don''t want me to know and yet you have spilled the beans¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Did I? But I have spared you the details Big Brother. You want the big details?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to look at his Senior Sister Chu Lixue with a straight line, "Senior Sister, actually I''ve been thinking of you all along while I was unconscious."

    Chu Lixue: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiang Li pped her face: Big Brother, they already know that you are lying and yet you are telling Maiden Chu Lixue this¡­

    Even Anyang was looking speechless: ¡­

    Ji Yuan hastily pointed out: Two lies make a truth. You need to convince them to your side and you can''t do this without trying. I am trying very best to convince my senior sister here.

    Anyang asked: Do you think that this will actually really help?

    Ji Yuan chuckled: She doesn''t need to believe me but she will feel better about this.

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ???

    The divine look that was on Chu Lixue actually be more pleasant as she coyly looked at Ji Yuan: At least Ji Yuan still have me in his heart¡­

    All of a sudden, the Trial Spirit had interrupted by announcing. "The next trial will start in 1 hour time. May all the champions ready yourself for the fourth trial of the Great Games. The fourth trial is also a qualifying trial for the fifth trial and in this trial, it will determine if you are able to represent your divine consorts as the true champions in the final trial¡­"

    All the champions in their respective arena were now exciting waiting for their forting trial.

    Ji Yuan turned to say solemnly to Xiao Muhan, "I am very sure that you will die in the next trial. So Brother Xiao Muhan, do you have anyst words to say to me? Or you need my help to carry yourst words to Maiden Flower Ju?"

    Xiao Muhan was also looking solemnly at Ji Yuan, "I think with your present condition, you are not going to pull through to the fourth trial. Brother Ji Yuan, do you have anyst words for me to bring to Maiden Yun Chi? Or do you need my help to help you to take care of your widows?"

    Chu Lixue sighed as she looked at the two of them with a faint smile, "I think that the two of you won''t be able to survive the fourth trial. Anyst words?"

    Ji Yuan, Xiao Muhan: ¡­

 Chapter 909 The Rules Of The 4th Trial

    ?

    Xiao Muhan asked Ji Yuan, "So did you find any profound treasures inside the ck pyramid?"

    "Profound treasure?" Ji Yuan was frowning with a perplexed look.

    Chu Lixue was also smiling, "Yeah, did you find anything interesting? We all did. Thest trial is actually quite fruitful for all of us and we got several good profound treasures."

    Xiao Muhan took an earth-step divine sword and showed it to Ji Yuan, "Look at what I got in myst trial. An earth-step divine sword. Muhaha!"

    Ji Yuan disyed a weak look, "That is a nice divine sword you got."

    Xiao Muhan also showed Ji Yuan some essories, medicinal spirit nts and even rare profound pills. "So what did you got to risk yourself like this."

    Ji Yuan bitterly looked at Xiao Muhan and Chu Lixue, "If I tell you that I didn''t find anything at all, will you believe me?"

    Xiao Muhan, Chu Lixue: ¡­

    They both said together, "No!!!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I got a feeling that the trial is messing up with me. Do you feel the same?"

    Xiao Muhanughed, "Don''t be silly, Ji Yuan. The trial is always fair to all or else it won''t be a trial at all. Why do you always have funny ideas when ites to a trial? Even your best friend Guo Taiming refuses to team up with you in a trial after a few times. If I have a choice, I won''t team up with you too."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I save your ass in the first trial, in fact you''ve forgotten."

    Xiao Muhanughed as he pped the ground that he was sitting, "Brother Ji Yuan, sometimes I am amazed how thick face you are. If I were with Maiden Ling Feiyue, I would be in the top team in the first trial. And I got a much easier time with Maiden Shui Xisi on my third trial than you are. Look at your ugly state now."

    Ji Yuan growled, "Did you forget about the second trial? You didn''t fight at all."

    Xiao Muhan frowned, "Did you also forget that Maiden Ling Feiyue is in the second trial too? Have you forgotten that you have killed a champion in our team even before the trial starts and you have almost screwed us up?"

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were soon quarreling while Chu Lixue watched them with a look of disbelief.

    In fact, their spat continued until the Trial Spirit started to announce to all the champions in their respective city-state arena, "The fourth trial will be starting soon¡­"

    "In this trial, you will be grouped in 11 teams of 10 each. You will all be taken to your respective teams for the details of the fourth trial in a minute."

    When the numbers to the team were announced, the faces of many of the champions had lit up.

    This included Xiao Muhan; it is because the more champions in a team it is, the higher is their survivor rate. Even though this may also mean that they are also more likely to die but everyone is assuming that it would be the others that will die ahead of them.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was thinking that this may be a most dangerous trial instead and he was taking ast look Xiao Muhan: So, I guess that it is farewell already. Brother Xiao Muhan, you shouldn''t havee here in the first ce¡­

    Xiao Muhan finally has the courage to enter a dangerous trial. If he could survive the entire trial, he would be able to breakthrough to the heaven-step of the initial holy saint cultivation realm; he had indeed reached a bottleneck a long time ago and that was the reason why he was unable to advance any longer.

    He took a onest look at Ji Yuan and sighed: Even though you are a great saint now but you have advanced too fast. Moreover, your injuries are also too heavy. You won''t be able to survive the next trial. It quite sad that we have to say farewell now. You really shouldn''t have entered this trial¡­

    As if Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were both thinking of the same thing, they gave each other a brotherly big hug as they muttered sincerely at the same time, "Farewell, my good brother¡­"

    As they exchanged their farewells, they were both taken away by a sh of light.

    Chu Lixue said with great exasperation before she was taken away too by the sh of light, "Stupid Ji Yuan, you didn''t even say farewell to me. Are you gay?!"

    -

    -

    -

    The sh of light had taken Ji Yuan to arge tform that was surrounded by tall mountains all around him.

    It took him only just a while for his vision and divine sense to be stabilized and he was quite startled to see Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi were also there.

    Hua Yunzi looked a little stunned to see Ji Yuan and she turned her head away awkwardly. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    As for Shui Xisi, she had immediately danced to Ji Yuan side and chuckled. "Hey, isn''t this Ji Yuan the Great Spiritas Hero? Why aren''t you dead yet? Damn, your injuries look serious. Can you still fight?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "Sisi! I miss you! Hahahahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "Woah! Seriously? You sound like you really miss me. Hehe!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course, I miss you! With you around, I feel much safer¡­ haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi frowned, "That is a bad reason. You shouldn''t be depending on me for your trial or else you won''t have any breakthroughs."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am already a peaked great saint like you. There is no need for any improvements. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi stabbed his chest with her finger, "You mean peaked great saint but level 1 in all your essence cultivation level?"

    The essences are divided into Body, Spirit, Soul and Mind. Each one has a level 1 to 10 denoted to it. The average for most cultivators is only 3.5 levels as it is near impossible to hit level 10.

    If a cultivator can achieve an essence level of 4 to 5, this is already considered to be an expert cultivator in that area.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly muttered, "I don''t mean that¡­"

    Ji Yuan basically skipped all his boundaries with a low essence score.

    He knows it and so did Shui Xisi.

    "Actually my Body Essence evel is level 10, you know."

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "I don''t believe. Proof?"

    "Cos I''ve banged you and survived, Sisi. Haha..." Ji Yuan chuckled.

    Shui Xisi: ...

    "Do you have a death wish, Ji Yuan?"

    Just as Ji Yuan was feeling quite awkward about this, he was thankful that the Trial Spirit was now making the trial announcement.

    The deep profound voice of the Trial Spirit could be heard thundering above them, "For the fourth trial, it willst for 5 days and a break of 3 days will be given to you¡­"

    "5 days trial¡­" The champions in the tform began to mutter.

    "In this trial, you have to travel to the end point of the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris. Then you will earn your qualifications for the fifth trial. If you fail to do so, you will be disqualified and join the 300 champions that have failed in the trials at the waiting arena¡­."

    "¡­ All of you have 1 hour to get to know your team before the mountain gates of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris will be revealed."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "5 days¡­ travel to the end point of the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris? Isn''t this too easy? Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Ji Yuan, are you counting your eggs too fast? Or are you thinking of running all the way to the end point on your own?"

    Ji Yuan looked at her and grinned, "Erm, why not?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

 Chapter 910 So, Who Should Be Our Team Leader?

    Ji Yuan was secretly looking at Hua Yunzi when a bulky man began to say loudly, "We have only an hour. Why don''t we introduce ourselves first and select a leader from among us? I am Hu Butao. What about the rest?"

    The reason why Ji Yuan was looking at Hua Yunzi was because he had a guilty feeling toward her when she had suddenly left in the middle of the trial when they were at the Demonic Divine Realm; he still remembered that night when she had left, he had a drunken wet dream about her which was quite vivid and he was wondering if it may be real.

    He had always wanted to ask her about what had happened that night if he was able to meet her again.

    But he did not have the courage to confront her especially when she was deliberately looking away¡­

    He still remembered how she hade to his aid when they were outside this SS portal when he was being confronted by Xi Huangdi and she had even given him a warning that there were a few cultivators that were from the Evil Cultivation Pce here that were after his life.

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were all walking to the center where Hu Butao was and so did the others.

    "Hua Yunzi¡­"

    "Shui Xisi¡­"

    "Ji Yuan¡­"

    The other 6 champions consisted of 5 males and 1 female. None of them were from Snowy Pavilion City or from Shui Xisi''s city state either.

    Ji Yuan saw that they all had a ck ring on their fingers, so they were actually all celestials like him.

    2 of the 5 males looked old and also like veteran cultivators.

    They were Huo Mingdi and Tian Ao.

    The other 3 males were Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Zhang Feihong.

    As for the other female champion, she was Xie Hongyu.

    Everyone quickly introduced themselves since they all know the drill by now.

    The faster that they could introduce themselves, the quicker that they could nominate a leader and decide on their group strategy.

    After everyone had introduced themselves, Hu Butao smiled. "I think we should nominate a group leader now. Why don''t we nominate Ji Yuan to be our group leader? He is after all¡­"

    Then he smiled at the bandaged Ji Yuan before he lit a smirk, "He is well renowned as the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuanughed, "This won''t do. We have two older cultivators here. They should be the leaders instead. It is more respectful."

    He had turned to look at Huo Mingdi and Tian Ao.

    Huo Mingdi smiled as he stroked his white beard, "We are all celestials here. Naturally, we should choose the one with the highest cultivation realm to be the leader here."

    Tiao Aoughed coarsely in his old voice, "That''s right. This is the fairest. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan took a look at Shui Xisi as though he was trying to say: These old wily celestials are so good in ying mind games....

    Huo Mingdi turned to look at Ji Yuan and said, "I believe that Brother Ji Yuan here is a great saint, right? I have heard you announcing yourself at the trial portal outside."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "That may be the case but I believe that there are other great saints beside me, right? Moreover, I am a half-dead cultivator now. How can I take the position of the demanding leadership?"

    Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi are both great saintess as well.

    Moreover, Shui Xisi is also a peaked great saintess.

    But Ji Yuan did not believe that Shui Xisi is the only peaked great saintess as these two old cultivators looked extremely formidable.

    But he saw that Hua Yunzi looked extremely quiet and she did not even dare to look in the eyes of this Huo Mingdi.

    So, he got a quick conclusion in his mind; Is this Huo Mingdi actually from the Evil Cultivation Pce?

    On all appearances, he looked too friendly and was even eager to appoint Ji Yuan as the group leader.

    But Hua Yunzi was not looking in her norm and this had raised Ji Yuan''s suspicions.

    Other than this, he could not think of any other answer!

    Huo Mingdi smiled to Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan is too humble¡­"

    Then he had turned to the others to ask, "Well, do you all agree with me?"

    And everyone was nodding, including Shui Xisi with a wry smile.

    Only Hua Yunzi was quiet.

    So, he asked Huo Mingdi with a grin to confront him directly in the face, "I wonder why Huo Mingdi is so insistent on choosing me as a leader? There must be some other reasons, am I right?"

    Huo Mingdiughed coarsely, "Indeed. It seems that I can''t hide it from Great Saint Ji Yuan here."

    Ji Yuan frowned: I know it!

    Huo Mingdi smiled to exin, "With Great Saint Ji Yuan to lead us, we may score a few Trust Points from our divine consorts as this shows that we respect their Great Spiritas Hero. As you know, the closer our Trust Points are to 100, the better is our reward."

    When he had said that, many of the champions broke into smiles and grins as they shared the same agreement.

    Ji Yuan was frowning again; it is because he did not know about this reason since he is standing on the other side of the coin.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "May the Great Saint Ji Yuan leads us for this trial!"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at her: Sisi, whose side are you on?

    He knows that Sisi did not care for the trial rewards and there was no reason for her to nominate him as a leader.

    Tiao Ao, the other elderly cultivator smiled, "Why don''t we vote for the leader in our mind? This is the fairest."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    When he said that, many of the champions were eximing this was such a good idea.

    And Ji Yuan thought that this was a good idea too.

    Or so, he had thought.

    It was because...

    Ji Yuan got 9 votes from the other 9 champions, including from Hua Yunzi.

    What the heck?!

    This is a rigged vote.

    Ji Yuan had to suck his thumb and said bitterly, "Alright then. I shall be our team temporary leader."

    Now he had to be responsible for all the bad and good decisions of the team.

    He did not mind getting praises from making the good decisions but he would also have to shoulder the me for making the bad decisions at the same time.

    As soon as he got nominated as the leader, Hu Butao was smiling to him. "So, what is our strategy for the team, Great Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes for a while to ponder before he grinned, "We should all stick together as a group¡­"

    When he said that, all the others were nodding or agreeing with him.

    Hu Butao even praised him, "What a brilliant leader."

    Beitang Hai was even adding, "This is a good n!"

    "There is no better n than this!" Zhang Feihong raised his thumbs at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was a little speechless by their ttering.

    It was because this was amon strategy and there was nothing special about this.

    He was sighing to himself: Good bye to my strategy of running alone to the end point now¡­

    But he quicklyposed himself to grin again as he pointed at Hua Yunzi, "Maiden Yunzi, please stay by my side to protect me since I am injured. I will need another protector as well¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "I can volunteer myself!"

    Ji Yuan grinned at her before he pointed to Xie Hongyu behind her, "Maiden Hongyu, may you be my other protector."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Then he said to Shui Xisi, "This beautiful Maiden Xisi here, you look tougher than Maiden Yunzi and Maiden Hongyu. May you walk behind me to support our rear."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, I am going to castrate you!

    Ji Yuan said to the rest of the 6 other cultivators with a big grin, "Haha¡­ since this leader is injured and my injuries are not light, I will like the rest of you to support in front of me and the three maidens at the back. What do you say?"

    Huo Mingdi slowly looked at Ji Yuan before he looked at Tian Ao, Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Hu Butao, and Zhang Feihong.

    These 6 champions were all looking at one another slowly too; it was because Ji Yuan''s n literally put them as cannon fodders at the front line first.

    And Ji Yuan kept emphasizing that he was ''injured''.

    But the darndest thing about this Ji Yuan was that he had ced the two most beautiful maidens Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi at the back, causing them unable to admire the beautiful views that were brought upon by their liberate spiritas clothing.

    Now Xie Hongyu was also a really beautiful maiden as well but when she stood next to Hua Yunzi or Shui Xisi, she paled inparison.

    Hua Yunzi was so coyly looking and fascinating appealing that the 6 men all had thoughts about banging and depraving her.

    As for Shui Xisi, she was like a peerless goddess and they were already defiling her with their looks on her body and imaging her without any clothes in front of them, right from the beginning.

    And this Ji Yuan had just put all the maidens behind them.

    However, none of them could actually speak their thoughts and they could only bitterly agree with this ''brilliant'' n that was put forth by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed as this means that only he could admire Shui Xisi''s butts and not the others.

    But why did he put her at the back instead?

    It is naturally to cover his back because Shui Xisi is really a strong cultivator and Ji Yuan could trust herpletely on this.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, why did you put Maiden Sisi to your back? You can''t admire her like this. Other than the reasons that you have mentioned? Do you know that you can''t talk to Maiden Sisi because of this?"

    Ji Yuan did not expect for Xiang Li to ask him this question so he answered with a straight face, "Do I need to talk with Sisi when I know everything about her already? With Sisi around, I can''t talk to the other maidens. Haha¡­"

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang warned him: Be careful of crashing your two balls too early.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially: Don''t worry, my two balls are like a formidable twin tower that is impervious to all crashes. Not even a 9th rank flying dragon can rock my formidable twin tower. Haha¡­

    He did not know that at this moment, Shui Xisi is already thinking on how she is going to castrate him with her divine sword.

 Chapter 911 The Gates Of The Dream Dungeon Of Tenebris

    ?

    The one hour of grace was quickly up.

    All of a sudden, the entire tform was shaking violently and the mountains seemed to be moving as well.

    To the startled surprise of Ji Yuan and the rest of the champions, a breathtaking ck mountain had rose from the ground and they could see arge iron gates in front of them.

    On the two sides of the iron gates, was a statue of a ck winged dragon with three horns.

    Ji Yuan gulped as he stared at the giant monument ck mountain in front of the tform, "This must be the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were all nodding and they were all looking excitingly at one another.

    The Trial Spirit thundered above them, "The fourth trial begins now. You have 5 days to reach the end point of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris and it is on the third level."

    Tian Ao was grinning to the rest, "The profound aura of this ce is too heaven-defying. We should be able to find more profound treasures here than in the ck pyramid trial."

    Shui Xisi giggled when she had heard them and asked Ji Yuan, "So what do you got in thest trial? I know you too well. You must have risked your life for something heaven-defying."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Nothing."

    Then he shouted to his team as he walked away from her, "Let''s go!"

    Shui Xisi cursed him behind his back, "Selfish! You just don''t want to share with me!"

    Their team quickly lined into their formation and they sped toward the ck mountain.

    Although the huge iron gates look close to them but it was a good 30 miles away.

    But to these cultivators, it took them only less than 1 hour to speed across the mountain paths and when they had finally reached this ck mountain, they were stunned by the grandeur of the iron gates which was a good 50m in height.

    It was monstrous and even the statues of the two ck dragons were a good 20m in height!

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw the iron gates. "I wonder why the hassle? Can''t the stupid Trial Spirit just send us directly into the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris?"

    Hua Yunzi said gently, "It is like the first trial. Those not strong enough to enter the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris can choose to remain here until the end of the trial and be disqualified. Once again, it may be a most dangerous ce."

    Ji Yuan was surprised that Hua Yunzi had taken the initiative to talk to him.

    So he asked her softly, "Maiden Yunzi, how are you since we havest parted?"

    But she merely turned her head away, "I''m fine¡­"

    All of a sudden, the two gigantic ck dragons hade to life and they were two 7th rank profound beasts!

    This interrupted Hua Yunzi and also startled Ji Yuan as he quickly armed himself with Xiang Li from his immortal scabbard.

    The 6 cultivators in front of him had all disyed their profound aura and had shed to attack the 2 ck dragons.

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu that were next to him had disyed their profound aura before arming themselves with their divine swords to sh ahead.

    Only Shui Xisi who was behind was casually walking to Ji Yuan with a giggle but she did not bother to help them.

    It was because these two powerful ck dragons were too easy for her to handle and she did not want to show her trump cards too early.

    And moreover, the 8 cultivators that had shed to attack the ck dragons had all fiercely disyed their profound aura and they were all great saints and great saintesses.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; since when did great saints be somon that they seemed to grow on trees and all the cultivators in his team were all at the upper sacred saint level!

    A 7th rank profound beast can easily kill a 7th cultivation realm great saint.

    Moreover, these ck dragons seemed to have an impervious armor too as well as sharp talons that were filled with intense profound might that rocked the ground around them.

    But these 8 great saints and great saintesses were no ordinary cultivators and they did not cultivate only behind close doors; they were all battle hardened cultivators that have survived to the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and up to this point as well.

    They split themselves into two main teams and each team began to unleash their powerful profound arts on the ck dragon that they were fighting without even getting hit.

    In just a short while, these ck dragons were ughtered by their divine swords and their profound power.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan did not even need to do anything but stared weakly at thebat strength of his team as he muttered to himself: These freaking cultivators are all so strong¡­

    He had actually wanted to join in the battle to help them and that was why he had armed himself with Xiang Li.

    But before he could recover his surprise of witnessing theirbat ability, they had already ughtered the 7th rank profound ck dragons.

    He could only say weakly to them, "Erm, good job."

    Hu Butao the bulky cultivator shouted to him from the battle scene, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you don''t mind if we collect some loot first, right? Is there anything that you need from these two corpses?"

    Ji Yuan weakly shouted back, "No need. Please go ahead."

    And he watched them quickly collected the dragon''s scales, horns, saliva, tongue, eyes, spines, dragon veins, talons and other important parts of the ck dragon''s corpse.

    And they did not even quarrel over the valuable loot but barter if they really need it.

    They seemed to know who had contributed the most and so who should get the loot entitlements.

    Even Hua Yunzi was there as she collected the dragon scales, sparing the more valuable parts to the main contributors.

    The dragon veins were the most valuable and they got two; this was divided by the old cultivators Tian Ao and Huo Mingdi that contributed the most to the battle.

    Huo Mingdi even asked Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you sure you don''t want the dragon vein? It has many uses like increasing your cultivation strength too."

    Although Ji Yuan was thick skin but he was too ashamed to ask for a share of the loot so he said, "It is alright."

    But secretly he was actually drooling in his heart and it would be felt by Xiang Li and Anyang.

    Even Shui Xisi was giggling when she saw his awkward look.

    She whispered to Ji Yuan, "Do you regret putting them in front now?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The 8 cultivators were quickly done with looting the corpses of the two ck dragons and they also quickly barter with one another or paying for the other parts that they needed.

    Ji Yuan saw that Hua Yunzi seemed to take a portion of the ck dragon''s heart and she was also collecting many of the ck dragon scales.

    He thought curiously: Is she making an armor from it or what?

    He did not know that Hua Yunzi was really making a profound vest for her unborn child who was Ji Yuan''s unborn child as well.

    This unborn child was Hua Yunzi''s secret and she had currently suppressed the growth of her child because she was still in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    This unborn child was everything to Hua Yunzi now and she was collecting all the possible profound treasures that she could find in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth before leaving.

    Ji Yuan had walked to the ck iron gate now and he saw that the profound seal had already been removed; killing the two ck dragons also released the profound seals on this huge iron gate.

    He asked to make sure, "We shall all be entering the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris now. So, if anyone has any regrets, you can choose to stay here."

    But all the cultivators were smiling without any fears.

    Shui Xisi urged him with a jovial chuckle, "Ji Yuan, let''s hurry inside now. Maybe we canplete this trial in 1 day instead of 5 days."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly as he looked with disbelief at Shui Xisi, "This isn''t a game, you know."

    2. Ji Yuan really got a strong team this time round, or is it?

 Chapter 912 The Lightning Plain (1)

    ?

    The great ck iron gates of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris automatically slowly creaked open after Ji Yuan and his team approached near it now that the profound seal on it had been removed.

    As the iron gates swung opened, they could see a ck shimmering portal revealing in front of them in ce of the ck iron gates.

    Since no one wanted to stay behind, Ji Yuan and his team began to step forth into the shimmering ck portal and they soon found themselves in another ce.

    It was a huge ce.

    They were now in a strange ce with hard grounds and an almost t terrain with a borderless in that was stretching for miles with no ends.

    And above them, were dark clouds of purple lightning that was shing in the midst.

    Every now and then, they could see shes of purple lightning striking onto the ground and thunderously exploding the ground below it.

    Ji Yuan said, "It seems that on this level, we just have to cross this terrain of lightning. This seems easy."

    When he had said that, all the cultivators including Shui Xisi were all staring with him with a look of disbelief.

    Did they just hear that it seems easy from this Ji Yuan here?

    When Ji Yuan saw their expressions, he chuckled. "We are all at the upper sacred saint level here and have ovee our lightning cmity. Surely we have nothing to fear from some purple lightning, right? After all, the lightning may look powerful but it is only the size of our thumb. So as long as we stay apart from each other, we won''t be struck at the same time. Haha¡­"

    Tian Ao said solemnly, "Purple lightning is the most powerful of the divine cmity lightning. Not all of us are able to receive the nine purple lightning tribtion."

    Xie Hongyu said sweetly but also curiously, "It seems that Great Saint Ji Yuan has plenty of lightning experiences. How do you actually know the size of the lightning? They all look so big and terrifying to me, especially when it is thundering all over us."

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Zhang Feihong were all looking nervously at one another and they agreed with Xie Hongyu.

    Hu Butao said solemnly, "These lightnings are dangerous. We need to move very slowly and cautiously. As far as I know, these lightnings have a greater chance of striking a moving target so if we hear the sound of a thunder, we must all stop moving immediately! This is the best strategy."

    Then he turned to Ji Yuan to ask, "What do you think of this strategy, Great Saint Ji Yuan? Is this the same strategy that you have in mind?"

    When he had said that, even Huo Mingdi was nodding and this was followed by Hua Yunzi, Shui Xisi and the rest.

    This sounded like a good strategy.

    Ji Yuan merely smiled awkwardly, "Alright then. This shall be our strategy."

    There was actually nothing wrong with this strategy.

    In fact, in this team Ji Yuan did not even need to use his brain as he had a team of experienced cultivators that know what to do.

    Actually, Ji Yuan''s strategy was more direct; he had outrun the lightning before but he dared not tell them his ridiculous ways of avoiding a lightning strike was by throwing his divine sword up to attract the lightning while he was running.

    Soon, they were continuing their way across the lightning infested terrain in their nned formation.

    As they walked across the terrain, Ji Yuan saw that Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were both looking unsettled by the purple lightnings that were shing down and exploding on the ground around them.

    Even Shui Xisi looked unsettled as well.

    Whenever they had heard a loud thunder, none of them dared to move, afraid that they may attract a lightning.

    The problem was, they did not know if they would be aimed by the lightning or not; this was all a chance thing.

    Ji Yuan was actually not afraid of the thunder or the lightning; it was because a long time ago he had even experienced trying to get struck by the lightning before and he had devised several strategies tobat the lightning strikes.

    After all, he had also survived 9 purple lightning strikes during his bodily transformation to the great saint level. So what was 1 purple lightning strike to him?<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi who had also endured 9 purple lightning before was not as calm as Ji Yuan; it is because she knows that even a strike by a purple lightning will burn much of the profound essence of a cultivator and even killing him or her.

    For her lightning cmity, she had prepared an insane number of spirit stones, profound treasures and even had the use of a powerful defensive array to help her.

    She dreaded the thought of being struck by a purple lightning again.

    When she saw the calm look that was on Ji Yuan, her first thought was that Ji Yuan was a masochist, a sadist that likes pain.

    Ji Yuanughed, "What up with everyone? Actually, the chance of a lightning striking anyone is this vast in is just 1 in a million chance¡­"

    All of a sudden, a purple lightning had descended and exploded upon Ji Yuan!

    It was so loud and the profound energies were so powerful that the surrounding of Ji Yuan had also exploded violently!

    The purple sh of light was so violent that the shockwave sent everyone to take several steps away!

    And the next thing everyone could see was that Ji Yuan was now lying t on the ground and there was smoldering smoke on his body!

    Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi were both so startled that they panicky called out together, "Ji Yuan!"

    The rest of the cultivators were all shocked and they hurried to check if their team leader had been killed by the purple lightning.

    Ji Yuan was trembling on the ground and he was badly hurt by the lightning strike.

    Huo Mingdi gasped, "Great Saint Ji Yuan didn''t die yet¡­"

    Shui Xisi quickly helped Ji Yuan to his feet and weakly said, "His lightning tribtion is the purple lightning tribtion so he won''t be killed so easily by one. But I can''t say for sure for the next. Ji Yuan, are you alright?"

    The cultivators were all looking at one another and looked astonished that Ji Yuan actually had ovee the rare purple lightning tribtion and was tempered by it.

    Many of them wondered if they may be able to survive a strike from the purple lightning in their best condition.

    They were quite amazed that Ji Yuan had actually survived a purple lightning strike in his weaken state.

    Ji Yuan shook his head weakly and he was coughing with disbelief, "About this purple lightning thing, do you guys feel that it is aiming me?"

    Shui Xisi and all the others shook their head.

    Tian Ao said, "This should be just a coincidence. The trial does not aim for anyone in particr."

    Hu Butao smiled, "That is true."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "What if I tell you that I will be struck again the next time round?"

    All the cultivators were shaking their heads and were feeling amused; none of them believe him.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Ji Yuan, enough of your jokes. Since you are not dead yet, let''s continue on our trek across this in."

    Unknown to Ji Yuan and his team, Ji Yuan was indeed aimed by the Woke Empress Rey Pugpatine in this trial and the purple lightning strikes were deliberately aimed at him.

 Chapter 913 The Lightning Plain (2)

    Just before the team continued their way in the lightning infested in, Ji Yuan had grabbed Shui Xisi to whispered to her. "Sisi, I may not survive this trek across the ins¡­"

    Shui Xisi was startled, "Huh! Don''t say that please. You will survive¡­"

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he said woefully, "I got a feeling that the trial is against me¡­"

    Shui Xisi was exasperated, "This is pure rubbish¡­"

    "No." Ji Yuan interrupted her. "I want to tell you how much I love you before I died."

    Shui Xisi was suddenly flustered but she made a soft protest, "Not my Sister Feifei? That is your Jiajia?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Jiajia as well. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi hummed softly, "Alright then. You can let go off me now. They are walking further and further away now. We need to catch up with them now."

    But Ji Yuan continued to grab hold of her as he whispered to her, "I want to sing you a song, maybe you can help me to bring it to Jiajia if I am not alive too¡­"

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "You want to sing it for me or to my sister?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Both¡­ haha..."

    Then he whispered softly to her.

    ?? ???????? ???? ????????,

    ?????? ???????? ???????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ?????????? ???????? ?????????? ???????? ????,

    ?????? ?????? ?????? ???????? ?????? ???????????? ??????????, ?? ??????''?? ???????? ???????? ???????? ????????????????????,

    ?? ???????? ???????????? ???????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ???? ??????????,

    ?????? ???????? ???? ?????????? ????????,

    ?????????? ???????? ???? ???????? ???? ?????? ???????? ????????,

    ??''?? ???????????????? ?????????? ?????????????? ?????? ?????? ???????????? ???? ???????? ???????????? ??????????,

    ?????? ?????? ???????? ???? ?????? ????????, ?? ??????''?? ?????????? ???????? ???? ???????? ??????????????.

    Shui Xisi was stunned and she was bleary eyed from hearing this song, "This¡­ I''ll always remember this song that is for me¡­"

    Although Ji Yuan was whispering very softly but as he was also singing quite emotional, even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu could hear his soft whispers as they were the next nearest to Ji Yuan; they had walked in front of Ji Yuan for now.

    Xie Hongyu was thinking this was a really nice sentimental song and she could not help admiring the talent of this Ji Yuan. Frankly speaking, even her heart was moved by his beautiful looks...

    All of a sudden she was quite startled when she saw that the face of Hua Yunzi was wet and that her golden eyes had turned red.

    Hua Yunzi covered her face with one hand, afraid of letting Xie Hongyu saw her in this state.

    This song had wounded her heart because it was exactly like Ji Yuan had said; she can''t hold onto their tenderness and she has been waiting for the love that can nevere. Moreover, he is like the wind and she cannot even get a promise unlike the lucky maiden that can make him pledge such a promise to him.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, his whispers to Shui Xisi were also heard by Destiny in the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City and her beautiful eyes had suddenly grown bleary; it took her considerable restraint not to weep her tears out.

    The True Devil God had once said to her, "In this life I cannot be with you, maybe in the next life¡­"

    Although this may be a broken promise but she has always remembered this. After all, she is an immortal and time flies in a blink for her.

    She was imagining that Ji Yuan was actually saying this song to her.

    And she wished that she was the maiden that had pledged herself as promise to him instead¡­

    She began to wonder who this ''Jiajia'' may be and what kind of a maiden she is.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    This Sisi is the sister to this Maiden Jiajia¡­

    She is already so peerless so this Maiden Jiajia must also be a heaven-defying beauty¡­

    She quietly repeated the song that Ji Yuan whispered, "I''m bitterly still waiting for the warmth of your tender heart¡­ but you flew so far away, I can''t catch hold of your promise¡­ But you are like the strong winds, I can''t hold onto your tenderness¡­ I have waited long for your love to renew¡­ Never will we back to the past days¡­"

    She had suddenly stood up and quietly left the divine temple.

    This surprised the divine consorts and their female followers.

    Destiny could barely control her woeful tears anymore and she needed to find a quiet ce to cry her sentimental heart out.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had wanted to sing this song to Xia Jiajia who was his Jiajia.

    He slowly let go of Shui Xisi as he looked up at the stormy heavens, "I am now¡­ ready to fight you¡­"

    Unknown also to Ji Yuan, his Jiajia or the Great Beyond Goddess could hear him even though she could not intervene ormunicate to him; it was because she had ced her true divinity sense in the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was mncholy when she had heard Ji Yuan. It was because she really could not keep to her pledge to him anymore as Jiajia was now dead.

    Indeed, they would never be able to return to the past days.

    She could imagine Ji Yuanmenting aloud when he had learnt that she was dead as he cried out, "I keep in mind, you have told me you would never ever leave from me¡­"

    She had failed to uphold her promise to him.

    As Jiajia, in the past she did not think that she would fall in love with anyone.

    Even the prank that she had yed on Ji Yuan with Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue was just a prank to know him better.

    It was not because she had fallen in love with him.

    Although she had found a liking for him 100 years ago but she could not define it as love; it was because they both had vastly different cultivation backgrounds and Ji Yuan was renowned as a rascal and an arrogant young master while she had a more refined background.

    She had to admit though, she had a sudden fasincation to his beardless look when she purchased his painting at the auction house in the past.

    100 years ago when they had finally met, Ji Yuan had suddenly out of the blue asked her to wait for him for 100 years, she had surprised herself by agreeing to it.

    If she had rejected him back then, then maybe things would be vastly different now.

    And she had been so silly to even wait for him by founding the Emperor Hall Sect.

    As the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice and the Great God Pangu, she was destined to be the Ruler of the Immortal Realm one day.

    But now, that destiny had ended.

    Everything was just a dream for her because she is the Great Beyond Goddess and she can no longer be with Ji Yuan.

    It is extremely heartbreaking to her and she felt powerless about it.

    The only link that she has with Ji Yuan is now the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that her Disciple Beiyuan had given to him¡­

    "My Sister Sisi. In the future, please help me to take care of Ji Yuan for me¡­"

 Chapter 914 The Lightning Plain (3)

    ?

    The 6 cultivators in front of Ji Yuan were actually walking cautious and chatting at the same time while the purple lightning shed above them; they were Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao, Tian Ao and Huo Mingdi.

    As long as their divine sense did not sense the approach of a purple lightning in their direction, they did not stop their steps but they did not dare to run either for fear that the purple lightning may sh in their direction and also because their divine senses would be muted when they were running.

    Tian Ao was grinning in his old face as he said to Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong and Hu Butao, "The profound power of a purple lightning is nine times nine or 81 times that of a white lightning and nine times that of a golden lightning. If anyone of us can be struck by a single lightning, we can be tempered to a golden lightning level. What a golden opportunity!"

    Only Huo Mingdi the other old cultivator continued in front of them.

    Then Tian Aoughed softly to them, "But only if you are able to survive a single purple lightning strike!"

    Beitang Hai sighed softly, "This Ji Yuan is able to survive one purple lightning strike and can recover in such a short time, this is already quite impressive."

    Zhang Feihong asked curiously, "Since we are all great saints here, I wonder what lightning tribtion did all of you face here?"

    When he said that, many of the cultivators had a solemn look.

    It was because they were being quite awkward about it.

    In order to be a great saint, they first have to ovee a heavenly lightning tribtion first to temper their body, soul and mind first or else they would not be able to be a great saint.

    But this heavenly lightning tribtion or divine lightning cmity was divided into the white, golden and purple lightning type.

    The white lightning being the weakest while the purple lightning is the strongest category and it is 81 times more powerful than a white lightning.

    And only the most powerful or heaven-defying cultivator is able to receive the purple lightning tribtion and even survive. It is said that only 10% of the cultivators may be able to survive it.

    But regardless what type of lightning tribtion it is, as long as the cultivator is able to temper it and to survive through it, they would be able to increase their cultivation boundary to that of a great saint.

    Now this is simr to a cultivation realm increase of therge boundary where the inner spiritual sea of the cultivator would be condensed to expand the new boundary of the cultivator''s inner spiritual sea, reforming it.

    That is why great saints are so much stronger than the middle tier saints.

    A great saint is a lofty figure regardless of their lightning tribtion because they had survived the gruesome tempering of their heavenly lightning tribtion!

    But of course, if they have failed it then it would be called a great cmity and it will be named the divine lightning cmity instead.

    The life and death of a cultivator is like a flicker of a coin!

    And of course, there are also many low level cultivators that did not understand how the spiritual boundaries work or cost to the high level cultivators and they just assume that each time a cultivator has a cultivation realm increase, they would just grow stronger automatically without a cost or needing a rest just like in many cultivation stories.

    In short, they may have read too many cultivation stories on the cultivators that breakthrough at the most crucial moment in the middle of the battle due to cheats and gaining an increased strength due to that that allow them to defeat higher level cultivators.

    This is calledzy writing and these low level cultivators have an IQ of 0. Or even negative IQ. It is because every cultivation story is different and they just assume that the world of the high level cultivators work like the cultivation story that they have read, forgetting that it is another cultivation story. This resulted in their negative IQ, especially when they try to argue against a work of fiction.

    But they can''t really be med because 90% of the first cultivation realm cultivators can''t advance to the second cultivation realm so they could not understand this.

    Moreover they were also leading pathetic lives and they hope to see a perfect MC like a Mary Sue or a Gary Stu character to escape the cruel realism of their suffering worlds.

    99% of the cultivators are actually not golden celestials and it is difficult for them to imagine the upper cultivation realm of the golden celestials. For that they need to attain the fifth cultivation realm.

    When a cultivator reaches the fifth cultivation realm, their golden celestial bodies are strong enough that they do not require food, water and even sleep for a long period of time.

    Now these 5 cultivators, minus Huo Mingdi here were all discussing about the lightning tribtion at the middle saint tier and how shocking that Ji Yuan was able to receive a purple lightning strike and had survived.

    But they did not know that when Ji Yuan had taken his purple lightning tribtion with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, he was only at the initial saint level. If they know about this, they would be extremely shocked.

    At that time Ji Yuan had no other choice because he was being hunted by the Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng with a deadly lightning cmity to end his life.

    He managed to survive along with Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, resulting in the three of them having the purple lightning to temper their cultivation boundary and they were all stronger than most other great saints that receive a lesser lightning tempering.

    That was the reason why Ji Yuan did not have to wait for his lightning tribtion at the peak upper middle tier because he had already received his lightning tempering and he did not need any prolong cultivation rest when he had crossed therge boundary to the great sacred saint level.

    Wang Gongzi had suddenly said, "I am not afraid that you mayugh at me. I am a lowly white lightning tribtion great saint."

    Tian Ao said solemnly and did notugh at Wang Gongzi, "I am not afraid to tell you that I am also a white lightning great saint too. Why do you think that I am so old? If I can be struck 3 times by the purple lightning then I can renew myself and live even longer as though I am a golden lightning great saint."

    Zhang Feihong said weakly, "I am also a white lightning great saint."

    "Same here." Hu Butao added weakly.

    Beitang Hai smiled weakly, "I am a golden lightning great saint but I have suffered a huge damage to my cultivation core during my lightning cultivation and that is why I am inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to look for a breakthrough or a valuable cultivation profound treasure to exchange for a cure."

    Out of the 5 of them, only Beitang Hai was a golden lightning great saint and he was a fully tempered great saint too. The result surprised everyone! <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But it was also not surprising because 90% of the great saints receive the white lightning tribtion and they hope to upgrade to the golden lightning when they are stronger as a great saint.

    But for the purple lightning tribtion, although they desire to have it but they also fear it with their lives!

    That is why there are many saints that are struck in the middle tier because they all felt that they are not ready to receive the white lightning tribtion yet or they simply cannot attract it with their cultivation strength.

    The more powerful celestial sects are able to invoke a divine lightning cmity by consuming a vast amount of resources but the end result still have to depend on the cultivator himself, the resources, the avable of profound treasures and most importantly, their luck like having a lucky five leaf clover.

    Huo Mingdi had suddenly turned around and said solemnly, "I am a golden lightning great saint but there is nothing to be proud of whenpared to that injured Ji Yuan that is behind us."

    When he had said that to the 5 other cultivators behind him, they were all nodding or agreeing too.

    Just now when Shui Xisi had said that Ji Yuan was a purple lightning great saint, they were all secretly shocked.

    They had all thought that Ji Yuan was a goner after being struck by a purple lightning all of a sudden after he had told them that everyone had a low possibility of being struck by a lightning.

    This Ji Yuan had just given a new term to what was a bad karma for belittling a purple lightning strike and then he got struck by one.

    The harm that was brought upon by a divine lightning was not only a bodily damage but it would also boil their inner spiritual sea away because as cultivators, they were particrly vulnerable to the divine lightning cmity as they sought to defy the heavens with their cultivation.

    That was the reason why they shiver to even try to tank 1 or 2 or the purple lightning as they were afraid that this may waste them instead as they have no preparations against it.

    Actually, Ji Yuan was not the only purple lightning great saint in the team.

    Shui Xisi was also one too.

    As for Hua Yunzi, she was a golden lightning great saintess while Xie Hongyu was a white lightning saintess.

    But no matter what lightning tribtion had they ovee, they were all formidable great saints and great saintess in their own rights.

    All of a sudden, the thunderous sound of a purple lightning was heard loudly and this time it was over their heads!

    All 6 of the cultivators quickly squat on the ground and prayed that they would not be hit by the purple lightning that was making its way above them!

    To the great astonishment of everyone, the brilliant sh of the purple lightning exploded behind him and it was upon Ji Yuan who was behind.

    A second time on Ji Yuan?!

    This time round Ji Yuan had disyed his ultra sword spirit and sword aura as he raised Anyang up high and the purple lightning exploded at the tip of his divine sword!

    The purple explosion was so loud that the profound shockwave forced Ji Yuan to kneel onto the ground and it almost caused everyone to lose their bnces.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had disyed Anyang instead of Xiang Li was because Anyang was a divine sword that was empowered by the five elements and he could use Anyang to weaken the powerful strike of the purple lightning.

    The 6 cultivators in front, Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu and Shui Xisi were startled that the purple lightning was actually hitting Ji Yuan again!

    Shui Xisi, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu had turned very pale because they were quite close to Ji Yuan when the purple lightning had suddenly struck him.

    Ji Yuan''s arms were trembling and he had turned pale.

    With a weak look, he had turned around to look at Shui Xisi. "See! I told you that the lightning is aiming for me!"

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "Maybe you have told too many lies, that why? Did you just lie to me about the love song that you''ve written for me? And that is the reason why the heavens are punishing you?"

    Anyang nodded in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea: I think so as well.

    Xiang Li giggled: I can''t think of any other reasons too.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He bitterly said to them: Anyang, Xiang Li. I''m about to be killed, you know.

 Chapter 915 The Lightning Plain (4)

    ?

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, on board the profound ship of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was sitting alone in the small cabin of their profound ship as she slowly reminisced her Old Master Ji Yuan.

    She muttered slowly, "It is almost time for my old master¡­ and my lord to be back now¡­ just a little more¡­"

    She began to shiver to think on how she should break the news of Jiajia''s death to him¡­

    Maybe I should think of something happier¡­

    There was a sudden faint smile on her beautiful countenance when she had recalled that day when she had finally seen her old master again but this time he was without his ugly beard.

    He may look haggard, dirty and thinner but she could recognize her old master anyway.

    She knows that her old master was pretending not to recognize her because this was the Deste Celestial Fraternity where the men prided their beards and old her master was a prideful old master.

    Although she had called him her old master but Ji Yuan did not look old at all due to his cultivations but she was still more than 300 years younger than him.

    In all the years that she had been with her old master, she knows him only too well and sometimes even better than himself.

    She knows that old master did not like to stay in the Five Heavens Peak and he had mentioned to her many times that he would leave one day and that was why he had already made her the acting sect leader.

    Her old master only had two core prot¨¦g¨¦s and it were only her Junior Prot¨¦g¨¦ Sister Shangguan Yan and herself.

    He was very strict and very fierce to the two of them.

    There were many times that Fairy Ye Chengxi could cry alone, afraid of letting Shangguan Yan or her old master knows about this.

    Everyone has a high expectation from her to lead the Orthodox Sword Sect one day.

    But the truth was that she was not as capable as her old master when ites to managing the finances of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    She had heard her old masterining many times that all the prot¨¦g¨¦s were just leeching from him and he had no cultivation resources to cultivate anymore. That was why one day, he would leave all of them.

    In the eyes of the outsiders, her old master may seem like an irresponsible man but only she knows that this is not true.

    She knows that her old master had worked hard to try to resolve their sect''s finances and he had often ventured away.

    Even though there were rumors that her old master had been engaged in the shady tomb raiding act but she did not mind at all. It was because she knows that the Five Heavens Peaks were dirt poor.

    She was quite proud of old master who was a Sword Saint and she aspired to be a Sword Saintess after him as well.

    And, she was secretly in love with her old master but she knows that her old master was strongly against any master-prot¨¦g¨¦ rtionship.

    Moreover, there was a rumor that her old master was a duck instead as he did not seem to shown any interest in any maidens.

    She had naturally joined the Orthodox Sword Sect after Ji Yuan''s woeful 3 failed rtionships so she did not know what had happened before she had joined.

    When she had met her old master again, she boldly tried to make him into her prot¨¦g¨¦ and to her surprise, he had actually agreed.

    She knows that her old master must be swallowing his pride to do so.

    It was because she could see the fires in his eyes and that he had even dared to go to the Emperor Hall Sect alone to seek vendetta for a sect that he barely knows.

    At that time, she had really thought that her old master must have suffered a badsh to his cultivation breakthrough and had even lost his golden body because she could no longer see his golden eyes.

    She was determined to protect him this time.

    But her old master had actually told her that he would go to the Emperor Hall Sect to check things out.

    She really got a big scare as the Emperor Hall Sect was a powerful celestial sect that have 4 powerful golden supremacies other than their Sect Leader Xia Jiaqing.

    In fact, she was already a fifth realm golden celestial while her old master was a cripple in cultivation!

    But her old master was firm in his resolve and he did not want to involve her and in the end, she had to let him go there all by himself.

    "Trust me," he had said. "I''ve a n."

    He had never revealed his n to her though so she did not know whether he really had a n or not.

    She knows how stubborn her old master was and so she did not stop him anymore but asked him to be careful and that she would take him back in if he could not handle the situation in the Emperor Hall Sect.

    One thing for sure, she knows that her old master''s swiftness movement speed was freaking fast. So, running away should not be a problem for him.

    She had thought at that time that if her old master had not gone for his cultivation breakthrough and suffered a backsh, he would be able to demolish the bullying elders of the Emperor Hall Sect on his own as he had a fierce reputation as a peaked 6th cultivation realm Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    But she had never expected that her old master would be an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect immediately after he had confronted them.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    She was literally speechless.

    At this moment, Shangguan Yan had entered the cabin and she was smiling to her, "Sister Chengxi, are you thinking of our Lord Ji Yuan again?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi did not deny this and nodded, "Our Lord Ji Yuan should be out of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth soon. Our days of darkness should be over, right?"

    Shangguan Yan inhaled mncholy, "I hope that this day will quicklye. The powerful influences of the Evil Cultivation Pce are everywhere and there are many victims that have be their living furnaces¡­"

    "That day wille¡­" Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded slowly, "Our old master and our lord will surely have a way¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the lightning ins where Ji Yuan and his team were at.

    To the startled surprise of everyone, Ji Yuan was now shouting to everyone immediately after he was struck by the second purple lightning. "Follow me!"

    Shui Xisi was astonished, "Ji Yuan, what are you trying to do?"

    But he had already broken into a run.

    This forced Shui Xisi, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi to quickly sped after him.

    There was a sudden thunderous sh of purple lightning above them and this forced everyone to squat down immediately!

    But Ji Yuan had still running!

    Ji Yuan was now running rapidly across the lightning ins and he had disyed his flying swords around him to block the lightning strike above him.

    To the astonishment of the cultivators that looking behind him, Ji Yuan was soon struck by a third purple lightning that shattered his flying swords above him.

    The shockwave knocked Ji Yuan to the ground with a tremendous bang and he was rolling on the ground but he was otherwise unharmed as his flying swords had saved him.

    He was heard saying, "Darn. My flying swords are useless here. The profound power of the lightning can even severe my sword intentions¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had withdrawn all his flying swords and he was on his feet again before breaking into another run.

    All the cultivators behind Ji Yuan could not understand what was going on.

    But Ji Yuan was shouting to them with his profound voice, "Follow me quick! We are going to run across this in!"

    As he said that, another thunderous purple lightning had thundered in a shocking loud thunderp before shing down at him!

    This purple lightning was 3 times more brilliant than the previous 3 purple lightning and even had multiple purple forks that increased its profound power tremendously!

    But Ji Yuan had already imbued his Divine Sword Anyang with the profound power of his ultra sword spirit and this time, he had even shattered the purple lightning and he was unharmed!

    This shocked everyone, including Shui Xisi.

    Shui Xisi was in disbelief for the purple lightning had the profound power of 81 white lightning. There was no way that Ji Yuan could even tank the purple lightning with his divine sword!

    The result actually surprised Ji Yuan; he had expected to get some injuries even though he had been tempered by the purple lightning before.

    This miracle had happened because Ji Yuan was already a purple lightning great saint and he had a partial resistance to it.

    But the most important thing was Aura had materialized above Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea and she was giggling with great delight, "Mass¡­ter, can you send more of these delicious lightnings to me? The more powerful it is, the more spiritual aura I can absorb from the golden sun¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he said to himself: Wah! This divine tree can absorb the profound power of these purple lightning? No wonder, I am barely even hurt when I was struck by the lightning despite having so little profound strength in my spiritual sea¡­

    He was running like before again.

    Huo Mingdi shouted to the rest, "Quick! Follow Great Saint Ji Yuan! It is safe if we follow him! I can''t exin it but the lightning is only aiming him¡­"

    Everyone could see that the lightning was only aiming for Ji Yuan and they were a little speechless but they all ran after Ji Yuan nevertheless.

    Shui Xisi was looking a little awkward because she had not believed Ji Yuan that the purple lightning was aiming him.

 Chapter 916 The Lightning Plain (5)

    ?

    As Ji Yuan speed across the ins, he was hit by the 33th purple lightning!

    All his team were shock and yet Ji Yuan continued to run madly across the ins.

    They had already been running for 220 miles and a ck mountain could be seen in the distant horizon.

    All kinds of purple lightning and chains of purple lightning were exploding on Ji Yuan as though all the purple lightning in the vicinity was only following him to attack him.

    Shui Xisi was in disbelief for another reason; she knows how fearful a 9 purple lightning strike was and Ji Yuan had taken his 33 purple lightning strike now.

    As she was the daughter of the high immortal and ruler of the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, she naturally knows some of the lofty secrets of the immortal.

    For example, in order for an immortal to cross from the peaked 8th immortal positioning to the 9th immortal positioning, they had to face the 33 purple lightning tribtion in order to be tempered by it.

    In order to be a middle 9th positioning realm immortal, they have to be strike by 49 purple lightning.

    And in order to be an upper 9th positioning realm great immortal, they have to be tempered by 81 purple lightning.

    Her mother consort had revealed to her that most immortals are fakes and they did not have the courage to be tempered by the purple lightning tribtion because most were not willing to fly into dust. Luckily for most of the immortals, they are able to dy the purple lightning cmity through their immortal cultivation by not irking heavens'' wrath.

    90% of the 9th positioning realm immortal actually had not taken their purple lightning tribtion yet.

    Most immortals are contended to be at the 8th immortal positioning however since they would be freed from the wrath of the purple lightning.

    The reason why Shui Xisi was gasping with disbelief was that Ji Yuan had now been identally tempered by 33 purple lightning then did this mean that he is now being marked to be a true 9th realm immortal?

    She felt that Ji Yuan was the blessed son of the heavens instead of her.

    How could he not die after being struck by 33 purple lightning at his current low cultivation realm?

    There are simply no profound treasures in the entire immortal realms that could withstand the profound power so many purple lightning without being shattered by it.

    Ji Yuan raised his Anyang divine sword as he absorbed yet another painful shock of the purple lightning that had exploded upon him.

    But still he did not stop running as he howled painfully while cursing, "This is still a little weaker than the Golden Horn Willy Nympha!"

    Actually, he did not tank against the lightning of the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha as the Goddess Ai Tina and Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had taken the receiving end of its profound lightning attack.

    He was actually referring to the static shock field that was inflicted by the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha instead which was more powerful than the static shock of the purple lightning.

    It was not to say that the purple lightning was weaker than the Golden Horn Wolly Nympha because the present Ji Yuan was far stronger in resisting the profound shock of the lightning attack now.

    Normal profound power could not resist the powerful profound power of the purple lightning but Ji Yuan is an energy practitioner and he is able to imbue his sword energies into his sword as profound power to weaker

    Also, he had Anyang to weaken the profound power of the purple lightning against him and his sword aura was also giving him a lesser degree of protection since his sword aura was actually made up of profound energy and it was different from the usual profound aura of the cultivators which are condenses from their profound strength of their inner spiritual sea.

    Even Aura the Divine Tree was also aiding Ji Yuan to absorb as much of the profound power of the purple lightning as much as possible and releasing the purer spiritual aura from the Golden Natal Divine Pearl after each attack to give Ji Yuan a renew strength.

    But one thing that Ji Yuan could not understand was that the divine lightning was not only able to damage the cultivator''s soul sea but it could even shatter the golden body of the cultivator. But he was actually still feeling alright?

    That is why after the divine lightning tribtion, the cultivator has to recover for a long time as even their golden bones will start to crack.

    But the thing was, Ji Yuan did not feel that his bones will shatter even though the profound pressure was 100 times more than he could handle after each strike, enough to crack his golden body!

    He did not have the time to ponder this as he continued to run toward the ck mountains ahead of him.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, his golden body is unlike the golden body of the celestials but he has the True Devil Body which is destined to be a True Divinity. The powerful profound power of the purple lightning simple cannot crack his bones!

    If Ji Yuan had the time to think back, he had never been afraid of lightning in the past and he had even sessfully tanked the purple lightning tribtion for Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue previously.

    Ji Yuan continued to run in the ins and he had to rece Anyang with Xiang Li as Anyang was getting too hot and had a risk of being shattered after he was struck by the 50th purple lightning.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    As soon as he had raised Xiang Li, he was struck by another purple lightning.

    To his surprise, although he felt terrible agonizing pain, he could still survive the profound lightning attack and in another blink of an eye, he was speeding again!

    Shui Xisi could not believe it; this stupid Ji Yuan can survive 7 times 7 or 49 times the profound purple lightning? Then won''t he be considered as a middle tier 9th positioning immortal already?!

    This is sheer impossible and should not be happening¡­

    She was speechless¡­

    Ji Yuan continued to run like crazy but he was already on the brink of exhaustion; any lesser cultivator would have copsed long ago but Ji Yuan was resistant to pains due to his intense training in the past and his ultra instinct was carrying him forward even though he was feeling half-dead already.

    By the time he had reached the ck portal that was below the ck mountains and was safe from the reaches of the furious purple lightning, he had been struck by 81 purple lightning.

    He copsed with great exhaustion just a step that was in front of the ck portal.

    All in all, he had sped 500 miles across the ins in just 6 hours!

    Shui Xisi was in great disbelief; Did Ji Yuan just temper himself with 9 times 9 or 81 purple lightning to be an upper 9th great immortal?!

    The rest of the team were allpletely exhausted as well and they all copsed behind Ji Yuan.

    Butpared to Ji Yuan, this was apletely different level of exhaustion!

    Only Shui Xisi was not as exhausted as she was true powerhouse cultivator so she rushed to inspect Ji Yuan and was quite relieved that he was still breathing but he was so exhausted that he had copsed weakly.

    Then with great anxiety, she began to inspect his body with her divine sense to check for damages to his golden bones.

    She was actually expecting for all his bones to bepletely shattered and that he would be a cripple now but to her utter disbelief, Ji Yuan''s golden bones were still fully intact!

    She simply could not believe it!

    81 profound purple lightning and his golden body is still intact?!

    This is impossible¡­

    How can his golden body be stronger than even the immortal profound treasures?

    She saw that even his immortal scabbard had cracks and even the powerful mystic defense of his toga hadpletely been scattered.

    But his golden body is still intact?!

    On the other hand, she was quite relieved and she was even giggling softly to herself.

    This means that this stupid Ji Yuan is a great catch for her and in the future even her mother consort would not oppose to their rtionship.

    She really likes Ji Yuan a lot but one day, she still has to leave him as her destiny does not belong to the Celestial Realm.

    She cursed him softly but she was delighted in her heart, "Darn you, Ji Yuan! You didn''t die yet¡­"

    This was not a real curse by Shui Xisi as she was not like her Sister Feifei who was elegant in her appearances and words.

    The reason why she likes Ji Yuan so much is because sometimes she is a female rascal as much as Ji Yuan and the reason why she was cursing so but delightful in her heart was because Ji Yuan could still be alive to handle her for their rough coption in the future.

 Chapter 917 Is Ji Yuan Going To Be Alright?

    ?

    In the divine temples and colosseums, everyone could see that the profound purple lightning was only aiming for Ji Yuan and even if there were blind, they thought that this was impossible.

    Everyone looked angry and also looking with great disbelief as this was the second time that the trial seems to be aiming at Ji Yuan.

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan isn''t the only one that is running¡­ why aim him?"

    "Why is the trial seemingly aiming for our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan?!"

    "Encountering the 9 purple lightning tribtion is rare enough and the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan has tanked 81 purple lightning¡­"

    "Warrior-God Ji Yuan has actually survived 81 profound purple lightning?! Is it even possible¡­"

    "Is he still alive¡­"

    "He isn''t moving¡­"

    "Isn''t the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan a personal guard of honor of the Goddess Ai Tina? Why is she trying to kill him instead?"

    "Maybe this is a coincidence?"

    "This trial is rigged!"

    "The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and his team is now first¡­ they are ahead of the others..."

    Many of the crowd in the colosseums were weeping as they feared for the worst that would befall Ji Yuan.

    In the divine temples of the other major city-states, many of the divine consorts were on the knees as they wept and prayed to the Great Beyond Goddess for the safety of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Although they had never met Ji Yuan before, Ji Yuan''s Trust Points had long reached 100 with them.

    Even the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang was humbly praying to the Great Beyond Goddess and she was in tears as she kneeled in the divine temple for the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Elsewhere in the other divine temples the Divine Consort Aiel, Fu Rong, Atnta and many of the other divine consorts were all doing the same.

    Divine Consort Fu Rong was even murmuring as she wept sorrowfully, "If the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan can be alive this time round, I''ll be willing to be his bride."

    This shocked the other divine consorts and the rest of the female spiritas in the divine temple!

    -

    -

    -

    In the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City, all the divine consorts were startled; it was because the purple lightning seemed to be aiming for Ji Yuan as he sped against the ins.

    They watch with disbelief as they saw Ji Yuan raised his sword to fight against the profound purple lightning one after the another until he had dropped down in front of the ck portal in front of him.

    Even Destiny had quickly returned to the Divine Temple and she looked panicky. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Divine Consort Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin were now panicky asking her, "Great Oracle, is the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan alright?"

    They had seen him dropping now dead and a maiden named Shui Xisi was now inspecting him.

    Destiny however looked relieved as the profound purple lightning was no longer able to harm Ji Yuan anymore.

    She said softly but firmly, "Don''t worry. The Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan just need a rest. He isn''t dead yet."

    When she had said that, Divine Consorts Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and their female followers were all greatly relieved.

    Even Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were also looking relieved; they had been weeping with fear when Ji Yuan was running across the ins just now.

    The truth was that they were not the only ones that had been weeping silent tears; all the divine consorts all had bleary tears and they were not afraid to show it.

    Even their female followers were in tears when they saw the number of profound purple lightning that were striking at Ji Yuan and it was only him.

    In other battle imageries, it was pure random and the profound purple lightning could be avoided by walking cautiously.

    Ji Yuan and his team were actually the first to reach the portal to the next level and most teams would only reach it by the end of the second day as they were all moving very slowly and cautiously.

    Although Ding Jie''Er was relieved, she firmly said with great affection. "Yuan Beluga, I will never leave you. If you were to perish in the trial, I''ll join you as well."

    When she had said this, all the divine consorts, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, the many female spiritas followers and even Destiny were all looking in her direction with a shocked look.

    They had not expected for Ding Jie''Er to dere her affection for Ji Yuan in public and moreover, this was not the spiritas way where men are despised.

    Maiden Flower Ju was also worried for Ji Yuan and not so much for Xiao Muhan; it was because Xiao Muhan was now safe as his team was struck outside the iron gates of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    Xiao Muhan''s team was surprising weak and they had only made one attempt against the two ck dragons and were forced to beat a hasty retreat.

    From the look of it, his team seemed to have given up on entering the gate after they had two causalities.

    Although she could see that Xiao Muhan was heavily injured when he attacked the two ck dragons but he was still alive.

    He was not the only one that was injured, almost all the cultivators in his team were too and they evencked the trust and co-ordination to make a proper team attack.

    His team had camped outside, not even have the chance to attempt a single trial inside the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    And therefore, they had no chance to seek even the profound treasures that were inside as well.

 Chapter 918 It Is Now The Best Time To Kill Ji Yuan!

    ?

    Back to the inside the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris, Shui Xisi was at a loss on how she should revive Ji Yuan.

    Then she remembered that she got a snuffed bottle that she got from the trial; it smells like shit and it should be able to revive Ji Yuan¡­

    With a soft giggle to herself, she began to search for this stuffed bottle and wondered how Ji Yuan would react since he got such a sharp sense of smell?

    Or maybe he would wake up to puke or maybe he would puke in his sleep and choke himself instead?

    She thought this may be interesting to try.

    If nothing works, maybe she would try to castrate Ji Yuan and see if the pain would wake him up instead.

    She wondered how he would feel upon waking up without his little brother?

    She was only half-joking in her mind as Ji Yuan was really such a fun person to be with and she wanted to imagine his silly expressions.

    But she did have the stuffed bottle though.

    Before she had found the stuffed bottle, Huo Mingdi had walked quietly to her and he was grinning with his old face, "Young heroine, may I check Great Saint Ji Yuan? I do have the physician skill to revive him."

    Shui Xisi was delighted as she smiled wryly, "In that case, why not?"

    All the others like Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao, Tian Ao and Xie Hongyu were all grinning with great delight too.

    All of them were exhausted on the ground and they had used plenty of their profound strength just to keep their pace with Ji Yuan; they had not expected that this Ji Yuan could run so freaking fast that at one point of time he was as far as 10 miles away from them!

    Moreover, this Ji Yuan was even using a divine sword while running.

    One must know that a divine sword is extremely heavy to wield and a cultivator would need the profound strength of their cultivation realm in order to even lift it and they could see that Ji Yuan was carrying a powerful emperor-step divine sword.

    This alone had stunned them when they had seen him disying it during the run.

    Also, all of them simply did not have the profound strength to even lift an emperor-step divine sword!

    This put them into shame.

    Moreover, they were also stunned that this Ji Yuan would even run faster than anyone of them while carrying his divine sword.

    If he did not have a divine sword in his hand, then would he not be even faster?

    One must know that after Ji Yuan had sped off after witnessing the duel of Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, these two maidens have actually tried to catch up to him to exin.

    But Ji Yuan was simply too fast when he was running and he had run all the way back to the Five Heavens Peak without stopping.

    What truly shocked them also was that this Ji Yuan was heavily injured and he was also in a weakened state.

    This Ji Yuan was also a great saint like him and moreover he was a sword cultivator but he seemed to be more formidable than anyone of them. Plus, he was also extremely young cultivator too!

    One must know that it was also extremely nerve racking to walk across the in for 500 miles not knowing when the purple lightning would strike them or not. Moreover, it was also the powerful purple lightning that would even strike them dead or severely wounded them.

    But when they all know that the purple lightning would only strike Ji Yuan, they were all secretly relieved and the nerve racking pressure that were upon them had also disappeared.

    So they were all grateful to Ji Yuan in their hearts.

    And Shui Xisi could see their gratefulness on their faces.

    So when Huo Mingdi was smiling to her and said that he would be able to help Ji Yuan, she had agreed to let him try immediately.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan had earned the respect of everyone in the team and none of the cultivators were even proposing that they entered to the next level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    Huo Mingdi smiled like a fatherly figure as he took out 3 needles, "I am quite experienced in this. Trust me."

    Shui Xisi nodded and smiled, "Alright then. But please be gentle a little."

    Huo Mingdi smiled, "Don''t worry I will. Great Saint Ji Yuan is the one that has helped us to get to this point¡­"

    Hua Yunzi was suddenly shouting, "Maiden Xisi! Don''t let him go close to Ji Yuan! He is an elder from the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    When Huo Mingdi had heard her, he turned ashen immediately but he quickly mustered all his profound strength to shoot the 3 needles at Ji Yuan as he shouted. "Toote!"

    But to his astonishment, Shui Xisi simply raised her fingers and had caught all his powerful attacking needles. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    One must know that it was impossible to catch several throwing needles and even a powerful cultivator may have difficulty deflecting even his needles.

    But this Shui Xisi had caught his needles and she was now throwing it back at him with such projected force that Huo Mingdi was immediately flung back!

    At the same time, Hua Yunzi had also attacked him with her divine sword.

    Huo Mingdi barely avoided her attack as he rolled to the rest of the team, "Yunzi! How dare you betray the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    But barely had he said that he was attacked by Beitang Hai and Xie Hongyu too!

    They had a burning hatred for the Evil Cultivation Pce in their respective celestial fraternities and when they had learnt that he was from the Evil Cultivation Pce, they had reacted almost immediately.

    As for Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao and Tian Ao, they had all attacked him soon too.

    Huo Mingdi was a craft old cultivator with many secret trump cards.

    But against 8 powerful great saints and saintesses that had surrounded him, he was soon killed by Shui Xisi after a few blinks of an eye.

    Everyone was quite startled how much profound power that Shui Xisi could disy with her divine sword and she was like cutting tofu against an experienced old cultivator like Huo Mingdi.

    Shui Xisi said angrily, "Darn! How dare you try to trick me!"

    She turned to smile at Hua Yunzi, "Maiden Yunzi, thank you!"

    But Hua Yunzi lowered her head to say, "Now that the rest of the team knows who I am now, what are your ns for dealing with me?"

    Tian Ao the remaining old cultivator in the team began to frown, "Who say you are from the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Then he looked at the rest of the team, "Did you hear anything about this?"

    Xie Hongyu and Beitang Hai who had a burning hatred for the Evil Cultivation Pce were however shaking their heads.

    "I didn''t hear anything," Xie Hongyu smiled.

    As for the rest of the team, they were all grinning. "Did we hear anything at all?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "We should give you thanks for giving us a warning instead or poor Ji Yuan would have died without knowing why. Hehe."

    Hua Yunzi was bleary eyed, "Everyone¡­"

    In the team, only Shui Xisi knows that Hua Yunzi was Little Princess'' follower and that she was from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Actually, Hua Yunzi did not want to help Huo Mingdi to kill Ji Yuan at all but Huo Mingdi had recognized her and forced her to co-operate with him as he waited for a chance to kill Ji Yuan.

    He was actually pretending to be a harmless old cultivator.

    So when he saw that Ji Yuan had expended his profound strength and had lost unconscious, he decided to take action immediately to end this threat for the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    He was imagining the rich rewards that was promised by the Evil Cultivation Master and his promotion to Grand Elder.

    But he was foiled by the warnings of Hua Yunzi and when he was killed, he could not believe it!

    Moreover, he did not expect that a young maiden such as this Shui Xisi would be able to catch his needles at point nk and even cut him down like a piece of tofu.

    It was not only Huo Mingdi that was quite startled by Shui Xisi; the rest of the team including Hua Yunzi were also startled by her startling profound skills.

    When they had fought against the two ck dragons, Shui Xisi had stay behind with Ji Yuan and so they could not gauge her strength.

    And moreover, she had a most peerless look and she did not look like a really powerful great saintess as she was constantly looking at Ji Yuan with her smiles.

    So they had all thought she may be a fan of this Ji Yuan and was much weaker.

    But they had not expected that she was actually a powerhouse cultivator!

 Chapter 919 Lets Go To The Next Level Of The Trial!

    ?

    "What is this horrible smell?!"

    Ji Yuan coughed out weakly as he be sobered immediately and he was soon blinking his eyes.

    He soon saw that there was a snuff bottle at his nose and Shui Xisi was giggling at him.

    "Howe you didn''t die yet? Tell me about the profound treasures that you have been hiding from me. Heehee."

    The other 8 team members were also aroused from their cultivations and some of them could be heard muttering in the background, "Great Saint Ji Yuan has awakened!"

    Ji Yuan coughed weakly as he smiled at everyone before he took a look at Shui Xisi to whisper, "It is probably the talking divine tree that I have."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Lies! Show it to me or else I won''t believe you."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I can''t."

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "I should have castrated you while you are knock off."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly before he asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "6 hours."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "What? So long?! Then we need to hurry to the next level."

    Shui Xisi smiled alluringly, "Don''t worry. They all need a rest too after running after you for 6 hours. Howe I didn''t know that you can run so fast?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "In case I have met an opponent like you, I need to run fast."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Do you have a death wish, Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he struggled to stand up, "I should be alright now. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi gave him a look of disbelief, "Are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he began to inspect his injuries with his divine sense.

    All of a sudden, he was shocked to discovered that his inner spiritual sea had expanded by 8 times more!

    After he was unwittingly tempered by the 81 profound lightning, the boundaries of his inner spiritual sea had expanded 3 times in total!

    This mean that in the future, Ji Yuan would not be easily exhausted by his profound arts and he could even increase the profound power of his profound arts as well!

    In numerical term, his profound strength has now been increased by 80% as his boundaries have increased by 8 times!

    This also means that he could be able to win Jiajia in their next meeting too!

    Shui Xisi asked him with a frown, "Why are you grinning so silly to yourself?"

    Ji Yuan lied to her, "I am thinking of you, Sisi. Haha¡­"

    But actually, he was thinking of Jiajia and how proud she would be when she sees him again soon. Maybe she would even be kneeling down at his leg and begging for the attention of his manly vibes. Haha¡­

    Anyang said to Xiang Li: Our lord is thinking of banging his Jiajia again¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: That''s right. He is even thinking of banging Jiajia in his cultivation stories too. Heehee.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Hua Yunzi was also secretly ncing at him while she carefully put her hands on her belly.

    She now had Ji Yuan''s seed in her and his seed was extremely important to her.

    Like the others, she was thoroughly shocked when Ji Yuan had survived 81 strokes of the purple lightning without any preparations.

    How could his golden bones not be shattered and where did he get his profound strength from?

    What Ji Yuan did, is impossible for any cultivators to aplish.

    She was even thinking now that Ji Yuan may be special and his seed within her may even be special too.

    She was not wrong at that time when she had picked Ji Yuan to give her his seed and also, he was really very manly in that that area too.

    When she had thought of this, she began to fluster in secret¡­

    Shui Xisi giggled softly when she had heard Ji Yuan said that he was thinking of her, "You know, I have also saved your ass too. So, you have better think of a way to reward me."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Since you have saved my ass, then you shall have my ass."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Are you courting your own death, Ji Yuan? I want real profound treasures from you!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly and his golden eyes were already looking at her bosoms, "I can give you a sexy spiritas lingerie."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "You definitely have a death wish, Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan asked, "Weird. We have only 9 now. Where is Huo Mingdi?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "He tried to kill you when you are knocked out cold. We have ughtered him and throw his body away."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "He tried to kill me?"

    Shui Xisi smiled alluringly, "Yeah! He is from the Evil Cultivation Pce and he is pretending to help you. Luckily for you, it is Maiden Hua Yunzi that has sounded the warning to save your ass."

    Ji Yuan was even more startled as he took a look in Hua Yunzi''s direction.

    Hua Yunzi who was secretly ncing at Ji Yuan was suddenly even more flustered when they were suddenly locking eyes together.

    Ji Yuan felt a little awkward when he saw Hua Yunzi was looking at him too and his thoughts had returned to that fateful night; he had wanted to ask her what exactly happened that night before she had left¡­

    But he quickly raised his hands to bow in her direction to cover his own awkwardness as he said loudly, "Maiden Yunzi, thank you for your timely aid!"

    Hua Yunzi soft voice could be heard as she shyly lowered her beautiful and coyly face, "It is nothing at all."

    Shui Xisi whispered in Ji Yuan''s ear, "You can give her your ass as gratitude for saving your ass."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He soon stood up and said to everyone, "Sorry about the dy. Let''s go to the next level now."

    Tian Ao was startled, "Are you sure, Great Saint Ji Yuan? We can still wait until you feel better. I estimate that the other teams may need 2 days to cross this in so we still have plenty of time left."

    All the others like Baitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao and Xie Hongyu were all nodding as well; they did not believe that Ji Yuan would really be alright after being struck by 81 purple lightning.

    If this were to happen to anyone of them, they would be out already and would be in need of a long cultivation rest.

    "We can wait for Great Saint Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Yes, it is alright to rest more¡­"

    "No hurry¡­"

    "Why not rest a little more?"

    But Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am really alright. But please give me a minute to change to my old clothing first¡­"

    It was because his powerful mystic toga had beenpletely destroyed by the profound purple lightning and his toga was now in tatters.

    It was a pity to Ji Yuan since this toga had cost him quite a lot but it had served its purpose.

    Then he had speed behind to huge boulder to change to his old transformed toga.

    -

    -

    -

    In the divine temples and colosseums, the spectators were relieved to see that Ji Yuan was able to stand now and he seemed to be alright.

    But they were also greatly shocked that Ji Yuan was able to survive the tempering of 81 profound purple lightning which was not possible.

    They were quite enraged when they saw that Huo Mingdi had actually tried to kill Ji Yuan and that it was Maiden Hua Yunzi that had sounded the warnings.

    Little Princess who was watching the battle imagery in one of the colosseums with Bai Qianfeng, was looking quite relieved at Ji Yuan had survived through the ordeal and she was also grateful to Hua Yunzi for sounding the rm for Shui Xisi to stop the despicable assassination.

    Bai Qianfeng was trembling and she was looking at the battle imagery with great disbelief; it was not because of Huo Mingdi failed assassination attempt but Ji Yuan had actually survived through 81 profound purple lightning to be a future great immortal!

    She had once faced the 7 times 7 49 purple lightning tribtion and she had to rest for over 100 years to fully recuperate herself but Ji Yuan could still stand up without any assistance after 6 hours?

    This was too unbelievable to her.

    All of a sudden, the spectators around her were all screaming loudly and with great adtions.

    This caused her to look up and she was looking as flustered as Little Princess; it was because Ji Yuan was stripping himself as he changed to a new toga.

    Little Princess muttered weakly as she said with great embarrassment, "Ji Yuan forgets that we are all watching him from the outside¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded slowly and said with a flushed voice, "We have better don''t tell him about this¡­"

    Elsewhere in the 12 divine temples, many of the divine consorts were flustered when they saw that Ji Yuan was undressing himself but none of them wanted to take their eyes off this beautiful man and his firmly toned body¡­

    This caused Ji Yuan''s Trust Points with the divine consorts to gain even higher now as more and more of the divine consorts fell in love with him.

    Mo Bei who was with Qin Shuang in the colosseum was muttering, "Junior Ji Yuan, do you know that you have broken a new record by stripping in front of so many people? Luckily we can only see your butt..."

    He took a look at his pot belly before he took a look at the flustered Qin Shuang before adding another murmur, "I know that you have a great body but do you have to show off your body in front of so many maidens, especially my own maiden..."

 Chapter 920 The 2nd Level Of The 4th Trial (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and his team had now entered through to the shimmering ck portal and saw they saw that they were in a burning wastnd that were filled with smog and there was evenva from some grounds.

    A ck stele marker revealed that they had indeed entered the second level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris

    Ji Yuan said to his team with a grin, "This ce looks dangerous. Let walk in haste but look out for any pitfalls on the ground."

    Everyone agreed with him as they continued in their usual formation.

    To them, this ce looked less dangerous than the previous trial but there should be a catch somewhere.

    They were quite astonished that Ji Yuan was able to walk on his own and he could even grin at them as though he had just been on a run.

    They did not know that Ji Yuan naturally has a high recovery rate that are further boosted by his purple lightning tribtion and True Sacred Saint Profound Art. And after he was tempered by 81 purple lightning, his recovery has further increased.

    Unlike the other cultivators, Ji Yuan has a poor profound defense as he did not have any powerful profound defense art so he focused on his natural high recovery to ovee his opponents.

    But even if he has a powerful profound defense profound art, he may not use it because it would drain too much of his profound strength and Ji Yuan mainly uses his profound strength for either attack or recovery.

    His end goal is always to oust all the powerful cultivators; their powerful formidable profound arts are also their weakness as it sapped their profound strength and Ji Yuan ys the slow game with them in his duels.

    Tian Ao joked to the other 4 cultivators that were with him, "Hahaha. Maybe we can even find some profound treasures in this burning wastnd. It should be a fire element rted profound treasure."

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong and Hu Butao were all grinning andughing at the same time; they had indeed missed out on the profound treasures in the previous trial by running too fast.

    But that ce was something that they wanted to stay for too long as it was too dangerous.

    Ji Yuan in the meantime was secretly looking at the slender waists of Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu and he was admiring their swaying butts as well: This is too sinful¡­ it is like they are all wearing lingerie in front of me¡­

    All of a sudden, he was interrupted by Shui Xisi behind him. "What are you looking at?"

    She had suddenly sneaked behind him and startled him. At the same time she had also surprised Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu as well.

    Ji Yuan turned around to growl at her, "You aren''t supposed toe too near to us, right?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "You say behind you but you never say how far, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Definitely not this near."

    "Or am I disturbing your awesome moments?" Shui Xisi giggled.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck does she know what I am looking at?

    Shui Xisi is naturally very sharp and she could see what Ji Yuan is looking at even if the others did not. It is because her divine sense is on apletely another level than the celestial cultivators and it is not wrong to say that her divine sense is an immortal divine sense due to her immortal bloodline.

    Ji Yuan weakly said to her, "Erm, can you get back to your formation?"

    Shui Xisi pretended to say, "I am so afraid of this ce and I feel so much safer in a group."

    Hua Yunzi smiled, "Maiden Xisi, we can switch ces. I can go and watch our rear instead¡­"

    "No need." Ji Yuan frowned. "Sisi can stay at our back."

    With Shui Xisi around, he could not focus on his awesome deeds anymore¡­

    Shui Xisi giggled as she pretended to thank Ji Yuan politely, "Thank you, Great Saint Ji Yuan!"

    She did not want to acknowledge her rtionship with Ji Yuan but both Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu could see that she was actually quite close to him.

    Shui Xisi poked at Ji Yuan''s back and said, "Weird. How do you recover so fast after being hit by 81 profound purple lightning? What is your secret?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I did tell you already but you didn''t believe me."

    He was naturally referring to Aura his talking divine tree.

    Shui Xisi shook her head as she suspiciously looked at him, "There must be other secrets that you are not sharing."

    Ji Yuan shrugged his shoulders as he continued to follow the rest of the team that was ahead. "Well, I don''t know why."

    He was equally perplexed how he could survive too and he was thinking that this may also be attributed to the Golden Natal Divine Pearl too?

    This was the truth as Ji Yuan did not know that he had the True Devil Body that had actually helped him to withstand the shattering profound shockwaves of the purple lightning.

    But he was partially right when he had guessed that it may be attributed to the Golden Natal Golden Pearl.

    This Golden Natal Divine Pearl is indeed a True Divine profound treasure and its spiritual aura is equivalent to the best spiritual mountains in the entire Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan''s immortal master, the Old Reverend Beiyuan had indeed given him a most priceless immortal profound treasure.

    This was also the reason why the Great Beyond Goddess was upset with Old Reverend Beiyuan for ''losing'' it.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan actually had not expected for Ji Yuan to be able to use or cultivate this Golden Natal Divine Pearl but the mere presence of this true divinity profound treasure would be enough to provide Ji Yuan a life time of rich cultivation no matter where he goes. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    With this Golden Natal Divine Pearl, Ji Yuan did not even need to have a cultivation rest; he could even regain his profound strength and injuries by the sheer profound power of this Golden Natal Divine Pearl alone.

    But of course, it was still quite impossible for him to recover his depleted inner spiritual sea so fast even with this Golden Natal Divine Pearl and he could still be killed when the purple lightning hadpletely burn up his inner spiritual sea.

    He had Aura the Divine Tree to thanks for; she was able to feed upon the profound purple lightning and even produce purer spiritual aura for Ji Yuan to drawn upon, fueling his profound strength again and again.

    If not, even with his True Devil Body, he would not be able to survive the tempering of the 81 purple profound lightning with only his 7th cultivation realm.

    And of course, he also had his sword aura, his profound mystical toga and divine swords Anyang and Xiang Li to thank for as well for lessening the impact of the powerful profound purple lightning.

    Ji Yuan also had strong willpower and resistant to pain to carry him through the 81 profound lightning strikes as he did not want to die just like this.

    All these factors added together created a miracle for Ji Yuan.

    So, he really did not know why when questioned by Shui Xisi.

    He wanted to show off to Shui Xisi his divine tree but Aura the Divine Tree was inside his inner spiritual sea together with his Golden Natal Divine Pearl. So he was not lying when he said that he could not show it to her.

    Right now, instead of feeling weaken by his exhausting fight with the profound purple lightning, Ji Yuan felt he was much stronger than he was at his peak even though he was aching all over and he had to endure the blistering wounds of the profound purple lightning that had yet to be healed.

    All of a sudden, the 5 cultivators in front of Ji Yuan were all shouting with great excitement; they had found some firegrass that were at least 500 years old and they were eagerly trying to pluck it.

    Firegrass has the effect of controlling the fires when ites to concocting profound pills and although it may be basic but it was very rare to find in the Celestial Realm. That is why it is often not used, leading to high failure rates when ites to concocting profound pills as the cultivators try to find an alternative to it.

    Ji Yuan did not stop them from trying to pluck these firegrass as this was their fortuitous encounter and he fully understood why they were so excited.

    Tian Ao shouted a stern warning to the rest, "If you see any firegrass that is more than 10 000 year old, please give a warning first and don''t recklessly pluck them first."

    The other 4 cultivators nodded for they all understood Tian Ao''s concerns; the older a spirit nt is, it is often guarded by a powerful profound beast that is feeding on its profound animus.

    There were many moltenkes and burning wastnd in this ce that could hide the profound beasts from their divine senses so they had to be cautious about it.

    As for Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu, they did not rush to pluck the firegrass like the rest in front; it was because they were with a beautiful man like Ji Yuan and they were flushing as they walked next to him.

    Since Ji Yuan did not rush to pick the firegrass, they too had restrained themselves.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was looking around the burning wastnd to check for any profound beasts that may be hidden from their divine sense or sight.

    He did spot a few low level and small profound beasts but they were too weak to threaten his team.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "This ce is really rich in fire profound resources. I wonder if I can find the nirvana herb here."

    Ji Yuan was curious as he asked her, "What is that and why do you need it for?"

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were curious too.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Your Jiajia and I practice the 9 Nirvana Profound Art. We are at the 8th Nirvana Revolution now and if I can help a rare 1 million nirvana herb here, I may just be able toplete my 9th Nirvana Revolution."

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock, "1 million year! And you want to pluck it?"

    Shui Xisi hit him on his chest and giggled, "It isn''t that long of a time¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a shocked look, "1 million year and you say that it isn''t a long time?!"

    Shui Xisi giggled before exining, "Alright. I shouldn''t have told you this or in front of these two maidens but I am inclined to be generous today. This Spiritas Tower takes 500 years to descend right? Do you know why?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Yeah. What about it?"

    Shui Xisi giggled yfully, "During this 500 years, it is trapped in a time capsule that enhance the speed of growth for spirit nts by 1000 times. So it is only a mere 2 cycles for a spirit nt to be 1 million year old. The same goes for the profound beasts within it as well."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "I didn''t know that."

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were staring nkly at Shui Xisi as they did not know this as well.

    Shui Xisi exined with a wry smile, "This time multiplier is different from all the trials. The longer the time interval for the trials to appear, the greater is the time multiplier. That is why it is easier to find millions old spirit herbs in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth than the low level trials elsewhere in the Celestial Realm."

    Then she added with a chuckle, "Why do you think that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is always able to produce so many spirit nts that are so ancient every 500 years? By right, it should all be gone by now. This included all the profound beasts. You cultivators are so greedy that you just pluck and kill everything you see."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I am not like the greedy cultivators. Erm, I just pluck a little nt that all."

    He was naturally referring to Aura the Divine Tree.

    Actually, Aura was not sent by the Trial Spirit and her appearance was a pure ident.

    It was actually by the Goddess Ai Tina as she had intervened by sending the most valuable reward for the first trial for Ji Yuan''s team as she had almost killed them by ident.

 Chapter 921 The 2nd Level Of The 4th Trial (2)

    ?

    7 hours had passed since Ji Yuan and his team had entered the burning wastnd.

    Just as Ji Yuan and his team had crossed over a small hill, they spotted a burningke in the horizon and there was a red profound animus that could be seen on an ind in the middle the burningke.

    This caught the attention of Ji Yuan and the rest of his team immediately as this red profound animus was from an unknown spirit nt on the ind.

    Although this spirit nt may seem like a profound treasure but most of the cultivators were unwilling to cross the burningke to pluck it; it was because they could all sense a dangerous killing intent from the burningke and on the ind.

    Shui Xisi however was excitingly saying to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan! Do you know what? I am in luck. That is red glow of the Nirvana Herb!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as well, "Really? But that ind looks dangerous. And how the heck can you cross over this burningke in the first ce?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "I want that Nirvana Herb for myself and for my Sister Feifei."

    "For my Jiajia too?" When Ji Yuan had heard that this Nirvana Herb was for Jiajia as well, he was excited too.

    Imagine the praises that Jiajia would heap on him for risking his life for her.

    He looked at Shui Xisi with a weak look, "How do we cross this burningke in the first ce? I can''t even hover with my present condition¡­"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "Follow me¡­"

    When she had said that, she was already wrapped Ji Yuan''s arm to her body and she had disyed her profound aura in a burst of golden light as she lifted herself up from the floor.

    This startled all the rest of the cultivators.

    "She can fly?"

    "Her profound animus is this strong?"

    "This Maiden Shui Xisi is as strong as Ji Yuan?"

    "Maybe she has a profound treasure?"

    Hua Yunzi was greatly startled; she had never thought that this Shui Xisi could fly just like this. She had already suspected that she may be a formidable cultivator when she had cut down Huo Mingdi without a care of his powerful profound arts that were shielding him. But flying is impossible for the seventh realm cultivators as their profound animus are simply not strong enough.

    In another blink of an eye, Shui Xisi had disregarded the others and she had sped across the burningke in her typical fashion; she did not even care if she has a team or not.

    Ji Yuan weakly shouted to his team that was left behind, "Don''t bother with us. Continue on your way first!"

    As soon as Shui Xisi had sped above the burningke, pirs of fire were spurting upward to pull them into it.

    But Shui Xisi simply waved her divine sword and she simply cut them burning pirs of fire away from her!

    Actually, Ji Yuan knows that Shui Xisi was not flying with her profound aura but through her divine sword which was a true divinity sword.

    The very first time that he had fought with her, she could already fly mysteriously even though she had not disyed a strong aura around her.

    So he chuckled to her, "Sisi, what a useful divine sword that you have here. You can fly when it pleases you. But don''t drop me halfway or I''ll be dead."

    Shui Xisi giggled softly to him, "So the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan will actually be afraid of heights?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am not afraid of heights but the burningke that is below us."

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi increased her speed across the burningke and in another 3 blinks of an eye, she had already crossed the 50 miles of burningke and she had dropped Ji Yuan to the ground while she fluttered gently on the ground.

    Ji Yuan alsonded lightly but he was frowning, "Do you have to throw me down like this?"

    Shui Xisi frowned back, "Do you have any idea how fat you are? It is quite hard for me to take you along with me. Consider yourself lucky that I am dropping you onnd instead of the burningke."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I am fat? Actually, I didn''t say I want toe along¡­"

    Shui Xisi had jumped up a small cliff and giggled with great delight, "Follow me!" <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Why should I want to follow you?"

    Although he had said that but when he saw that Shui Xisi had disappeared over the cliff, he quickly followed her.

    "Sisi, wait for me!"

    Shui Xisi turned back to smile wryly at him, "Wait for you? Didn''t you say you don''t want to follow me? So why are you following me and asking me to wait for you instead?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I suddenly remember that I still need a transportation to get back across this burningke. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "Not bad. You still remember this. If you are well behaved then I may consider getting you back across the burningke¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had pped Shui Xisi''s butt and he was grinning and he was pinching her butt too, "Sisi, I miss you. You look so beautiful in this attire. Now that we are alone, shall we exchange some passionate kisses?"

    Shui Xisi pushed him away all of a sudden, "Ji Yuan, don''t touch me like this!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What is wrong Sisi? I have always touched you like this¡­"

    Shui Xisi looked a little flustered, "Ji Yuan, have you forgotten that we are in a trial and we are being watched by maybe a million people?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish for he had indeed forgotten; he had suddenly remembered how he had stripped and changed his clothing earlier¡­

    He awkwardly said, "Thanks for reminding me¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi was feeling even more flushed too; it was because she had suddenly remembered that earlier Ji Yuan had changed into a new clothing as well¡­

    He weakly said to her, "Then why didn''t you remind me earlier?"

    Shui Xisi weakly said, "I forget and so did the others. We are all too immerse in the trial and forget that this is a trial that can be watched by the others¡­"

    Usually, trials are secret and it is impossible to watch a trial from the outside. And most cultivators are too used to the privacy of the trials.

    Shui Xisi quickly forced herself to smile, "Let''s go and pluck the Nirvana Herb¡­"

    JI Yuan muttered weakly as he stared at Shui Xisi'' butt and bosoms, "Yeah, right¡­"

    Half of his excitement had faded away now.

    -

    -

    -

    In an unknown location of the Spiritas Tower.

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit was feeling frustrated for not able to kill Ji Yuan and there was little she could do to him at the level 2 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    How could someone be able to survive so many profound purple lightning? This was already iprehensible to her!

    Just as she had given up hope on killing Ji Yuan on this level, she was delighted that Ji Yuan and another maiden had entered a dangerous area in the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    And she was smirking coldly now.

    "This time round, this ugly of a man Ji Yuan shall be a dead man soon!"

 Chapter 922 The 10-Million-Year-Old Nirvana Herb

    ?

    On the ind that Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi hadnded upon, there was actually a living volcano and the Nirvana Herb was in the middle of this living volcano.

    "This is a 10 million year old Nirvana Herb!" Shui Xisi was looking excited before she turned to Ji Yuan to smile with equal enthusiasm.

    When Ji Yuan saw the moltenva that was flowing from this living volcano, he shook his head and said to Shui Xisi. "Sisi, are you that you want to go down to pluck this Nirvana Herb? I sense a looming presence below the volcano. If you pluck this spirit herb, you will surely awaken the profound monster that is guarding it."

    Shui Xisi grinned, "It is a 9th rank epic profound beast in there. To be exact, a phoenix god beast in there."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know that it is a 9th rank epic beast and you still want to pluck it?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "I have the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan with me. Do I need to worry so much?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I doubt that I can be of much help and I also doubt that you can carry me too. This ce has a strong fiery element that burns away our profound animus."

    "Don''t worry. I''m not asking you to apany me. You just need to stay here and provide me with your support." Shui Xisi winked at him before standing up to leap into the volcano.

    But as she stood up, Ji Yuan had suddenly caught her wrist and said solemnly. "Sisi, enough of your willfulness. Give it up."

    "Huh?" Shui Xisi was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly caught hold of her.

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "You can''t fight a 9th rank god beast alone. And even if you add me, we still can''t defeat it. Most importantly, I don''t want to lose you."

    Shui Xisi was suddenly looking at him with great tenderness, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Sometimes we must know when to give up. Being greedy is never a good thing even if this is important to your cultivation. It is better not to take unnecessary risk unless you are being pushed into a corner¡­"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly caught hold of his cheeks with her hands and she had kissed him passionately.

    Ji Yuan was surprised by this act but he was soon returning the kiss passionately.

    But barely had he immersed himself into it, Shui Xisi had released her hold on his face and she had jumped down from the top of the living volcano.

    This stunned Ji Yuan.

    "Sisi! What are you doing?! Come back!"

    Ji Yuan shockingly shouted after her.

    Right now, he could not even muster his deste cherubim into his spirit animus to jump after her as his inner spiritual sea was mostly empty.

    He felt like banging his head on the hard ground and he was actually hitting the ground with his fist, "Crap! Sisi, I''ve promise Jiajia to look after her sister. So, you can''t die in there¡­"

    Shui Xisi had fluttered down to the moltenva of the volcano but before she could even descend halfway to the Nirvana Herb, a gigantic phoenix god beast had emerged from the moltenva and it was fiercely shrieking at Shui Xisi!

    Ji Yuan wasted no time in disying his Xiang Li Divine Sword and he had already mustered his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to lend support Shui Xisi.

    "Sisi, I am not going to let you die!"

    And his divine sword was charged with the white light of his sword energies.

    But Shui Xisi shouted at him instead, "Ji Yuan, wait!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "Wait?! That monster is upon you already. Don''t worry, I won''t miss¡­"

    He had an eye for precision no matter how far his sword energy was.

    Xiang Li said to Anyang: Big Brother won''t miss it. He can even see the color of the panties from 1 mile away.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to release his sword energies, he was startled to see that the phoenix god beast did not attack Shui Xisi.

    Instead, the phoenix god beast had gently wrapped its huge wings around the moltenva to make way for Shui Xisi to descend.

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "What the heck is going on here?!"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He was in disbelief.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she descended on the Nirvana Herb. "This fire phoenix god beast says she wants to be my spirit pet."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he almost slipped down into the moltenva.

    He simply cannot believe it!

    Why should a phoenix god beast be so docile in front of Shui Xisi?!

    Then he had suddenly remembered that she was once apanied by a 9th rank epic blue phoenix when he had met her at the Spirit Blue Moon Sect¡­

    But this shouldn''t be.

    He was frowning.

    It was because Shui Xisi was not capable of capturing such a high ranking phoenix as a spirit pet and he had always thought that this was due to her formidable background and that some ancient patriarchs of her must have captured the blue phoenix at a huge cost in the past.

    Ji Yuan was a little speechless now and he was now questioning Jiajia''s background as well.

    Jiajia said that she wants to tell me something after I have returned from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Is it her background?

    Shui Xisi gently hovered near the Nirvana Herb as she said gently, "I''ve been looking for you for so long. Finally, my sister and I canplete our 9th Nirvana revolutions¡­"

    Then she muttered, "This time, my Sister Feifei will be so proud of me. She has always been the one that is helping me with my Nirvana Revolutions but this time I am useful and is no longer the protected sister¡­"

    There was a pleased look in her countenance when she had said that.

    Then with a surge of her profound aura, she had put her fingers on the Nirvana Herb as she plucked it gently.

    Obviously her profound strength was not enough to pluck this 10 million Nirvana Herb but all of a sudden her profound aura had changed form and a soaring phoenix could be seen forming around her.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This is Sisi''s spirit entity? This is the first time I have seen it¡­"

    He was beginning to wonder if Sisi was stronger or Jiajia was the stronger of the two.

    Then all of a sudden Shui Xisi had plucked the Nirvana Herb and she was saying with great delight to the phoenix god beast, "Do you mind taking the two of us away from this ce?"

    -

    -

    -

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit was enraged.

    At first, she had thought that this slumbering phoenix god beast would be enough to kill this ugly Ji Yuan. But she had never though that there was a maiden that could possess the phoenix bloodline.

    There was only one great immortal goddess that could make all the phoenix god beasts to bow below her and that was the Great Goddess Celestial Alice.

    But this maiden was obviously not the Great Goddess Alice herself but she could be rted to her.

    She had never thought that there was a formidable cultivator that could be apanying this Ji Yuan as she made a resolve to separate the two of them for the fifth trial.

    This Maiden Shui Xisi was too dangerous to be taken lightly and she could not belittle her.

    The dark apparition also noted that she could also fly and this alone could mean that either she was a powerful cultivator or she had a formidable profound treasure.

    "Ugly Ji Yuan! This level is too easy for you! But you won''t have it easy for the next level¡­"

 Chapter 923 Augustina The Phoenix God Beast

    ?

    In the divine temples of the 12 city-states of Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, all the divine consorts were glued to the battle imagery that shown Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi; it was because they had just locked kisses together in a passionate manner.

    It was not just the divine consorts but many of the female spiritas were gasping with shock too; it is because a kiss is precious in their spiritas culture and it also means a pledge of love between the two couple.

    Shui Xisi''s patron divine consort is the Divine Consort Atnta.

    Right now, the Divine Consort Atnta was looking shockingly at the battle imagery; she did not know that Shui Xisi was this close to Ji Yuan. Rather, she had thought that she had a feud with Ji Yuan for she had heard Shui Xisiining about Ji Yuan on more than one asion and threatening to castrate him.

    Elsewhere, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and the White Sword Monarch were also watching with disbelief.

    Little Princess muttered weakly to Bai Qianfeng, "Does she knows that we can all see her?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "I am sure that she knows but she doesn''t seem to care."

    Although the maidens that know Shui Xisi did not believe that Shui Xisi did not have a rtionship with Ji Yuan but the some others like the White Sword Monarch had thought otherwise; it was because Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan seemed to be quarreling quite often when they were together.

    This was not the only thing that had startled everyone; after Shui Xisi had abruptly stopped kissing Ji Yuan, she had leapt down to the living volcano to challenge a 9th rank epic phoenix god beast.

    But instead of being toasted alive by phoenix god beast, it had allowed Shui Xisi to descend slowly to pluck the Nirvana Herb!

    What''s more, after that, she had actually ridden on the phoenix god beast and had taken Ji Yuan on a ride too!

    The only person that was not surprised was Bai Qianfeng.

    Even Destiny was surprised to witness it and this included the dark apparition in the Spiritas Tower as well.

    Everyone was startled¡­

    How can this be possible?

    What is the background of this Maiden Shui Xisi?

    Everyone was curiously looking for an answer but in vain.

    Only Bai Qianfeng knows that Shui Xisi is the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice and it was not strange to her.

    -

    -

    -

    When the phoenix god beast found the rest of the Ji Yuan''s team again, they were plucking some fire berries in the vicinity and were shocked to see a gigantic 9th rank epic phoenix god beast that had suddenly descended upon them.

    The 7 cultivators that Ji Yuan saw were Baitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao, Tian Ao, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu.

    Beitang Tai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao and Tian Ao were further in front as they picked the fire berries while the two maidens Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were together as they did the same as well.

    Many of them were thinking: We are dead this time.

    A short while ago, they just had a battle with three fierce 7th rank profound beast and they did not expect a new battle would start again so soon.

    But to their astonishments, Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had suddenly jumped down from this phoenix god beast, shocking them.

    And they hadnded near where Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi were.

    Ji Yuan was muttering something incoherent andining that he was almost thrown down by the phoenix god beast earlier.

    Shui Xisi onlyughed, "It seems that you have no animal affinity at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hua Yunzi gasped with shock as she stared at the gigantic phoenix god beast, "Maiden Shui¡­ this is¡­" <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "This is my new contract pet. Isn''t she a beauty?"

    When the rest of the cultivators had heard her, they were all shocked.

    Xie Hongyu asked weakly, "This thing¡­ can fly us to the third level?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "She doesn''t like to carry anyone except for me and she is only making an exception for Ji Yuan here."

    When she had said that, the phoenix god beast shrieked loudly.

    "Heehee," Shui Xisi giggled. "So, I am afraid that we have to continue walking. However, the portal to the next level is quite near here. We saw it when we are flying above earlier."

    Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu took a weak look at each other before they nodded.

    This Shui Xisi is simply too formidable and she can tame even a phoenix god beast!

    Shui Xisi turned to look at the phoenix god beast and said, "I want you to turn into a little me and to hide in my spiritual sea. Will this do for you?"

    The phoenix god beast shrieked loudly before turning into a small golden feather before disappearing in Shui Xisi''s bosoms.

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "What the heck?! This monstrous fat bird can turn itself into such a small feather and you can even absorb it into your soul core?"

    It was not just Ji Yuan who was surprised but the rest of the cultivators as well.

    They were all thinking: Is it even possible in the first ce?

    They did not know that Shui Xisi''s soul sea can house the nirvana spirit of the phoenixes and it is all due to her special bloodline that it is possible.

    Shui Xisi gave Ji Yuan a soft kick, "What fat big bird? Do you know that you keep offending her just now by your reckless words just now that you almost got thrown down."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly, "I though she is unable to understand me, that''s why. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi rebuked him softly, "Her name is Augustina, got it?"

    Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, "I got it. Augustina¡­"

    He could not even get along well with Bai Qianfeng''s contract pets so how much he got along well with this Augustina?

    It isn''t my fault for not getting well with the contract pets, right?

    He was actually asking himself this question.

    Ji Yuan quickly said to his team with a grin, "Follow me! I know the way to the third level!"

    The rest of the team was actually only too d to follow Ji Yuan; it was their profound strength was being sapped by the smoldering aura in this ce and they were all feeling quite lost in this burning wastnd.

    Without a direction, it may even take them a couple of days to find the portal to the next level.

    Also, they had enough pickings already and were exhausted from fighting with 3 powerful profound beasts while Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were away.

    So it was more sensible for them to continue in the right direction rather than getting themselves killed in this ce. If there were any profound treasures along the way, they could also still be able to gather it.

    Tian Ao shouted loudly to the rest, "Let''s go! We shall follow Great Saint Ji Yuan''s lead this time."

 Chapter 924 The 3rd Level Of The 4th Trial (1)

    ?

    The portal to the next level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris took Ji Yuan and his team another 10 hours to reach.

    Along the way, the cultivators plucked at whatever rare spirit herbs that they couldy their hands on.

    Luckily for them, there were no further encounters along the way.

    Also, the reason why it took them so long was because the terrain of the burning wastnd was rough and visibility was low due to the smog that were everywhere.

    But when they had found the portal, there was a delightful look that were on everyone''s face.

    Ji Yuan was d too as the spiritual aura in this ce was too weak.

    But unlike the others, his profound strength was not sapped and instead he was recovering as though he was cultivating.

    Ji Yuan thought that it had to do with Aura and he was not wrong.

    "Haha, we have finally found the portal now."

    Shui Xisi could see the cheerful look that was on Ji Yuan, "I was wondering if you are lost and I was about to offer myself to scout for you instead."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes to look at her, "I think you are looking to go into the next portal all by yourself whileughing at a silly man that is suffering in this burning wastnd instead."

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she followed him to step into the shimmering portal to the next level.

    The rest of Ji Yuan''s team did not waste any time at all as they quickly entered into the portal with him.

    They soon found themselves in a ce that were littered with green mountains and a tranquilke.

    The ck stele that they saw when they appeared in this ce indicated that this was indeed the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled by the tranquil beauty of this ce, "This is the third level? It doesn''t look dangerous at all to me¡­"

    He was not the only one that was thinking the same.

    Tian Ao was also looking at Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and the rest with a perplexed look. "I think the same too¡­"

    Xie Hongyu smiled with a weary look, "Finally the spiritual aura in this ce is normal again. I am so exhausted¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw that Hua Yunzi was tired too and he said to his team, "Everyone. Let''s take 3 hours break first to cultivate back some of our profound strength first before we continue. Although this ce looks less dangerous but there may be plenty of hidden dangers in this ce."

    Zhang Feihong and Hu Butao quickly bowed with their hands to agree with this decision; they were sweating heavily and were looking exhausted too.

    Usually, it is difficult for cultivators to sweat and when they do, it means that they had already exhausted plenty of their profound strength.

    Shui Xisi nodded too even though she was tired, "Ji Yuan, do you think that we are the first team to reach level three of this dungeon?"

    "I think so. This is the end of day 2. So we have 3 more days to reach the end of this level to earn our qualifications for the fifth trial." Ji Yuan smiled.

    "But I wonder what does Tenebris means? After all, this ce is called the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris."

    "It means darkness." Hua Yunzi had suddenly said from behind Ji Yuan. "So, this dungeon can also b called the Dream Dungeon of Darkness."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Maiden Yunzi, you know something about this trial?"

    Hua Yunzi shook her head, "I don''t. But I have spent some time to read about some of the ancient history of the spiritas race and I havee across this word in my reads."

    Ji Yuan looked at the tranquil surroundings as he remarked, "Well. The first two levels are certainly quite gloomy but this level is not so much. There is nothing darkness about this ce. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had turned to say with great gentleness, "Maiden Yunzi, thank you. Erm, I wonder if we can¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But Hua Yunzi seemed to be afraid of him and she had quickly departed to a seclude corner before she closed her eyes in meditation.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly.

    Shui Xisi saw his looks and whispered, "Hmph! Are you sad that you have failed to sow your seeds with this little beauty?"

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    "This isn''t what I am thinking about."

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "If you are not asking her if you can sow your seeds with her then is it the other way round instead?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She chuckled again, "Look at you. I am only teasing you. This can''t be real. Alright then. Then what are you trying to ask her?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly to himself: Actually, I want to ask exactly what you have just said¡­

    But he put on a straight face to grin to her, "Actually I just want to drive everyone away from us so that we can have an opportunity to be alone. Now it is now the two of us left. I want to continue to kiss you. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled as she took a step back before she raised her fingers, "No, no. That is only because I was touched by you earlier. But now, we are going to cultivate for the next 3 hours. Have you forgotten that we have more than 1 million people that may be watching us now?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he looked at her alluring figure, "Maybe they are looking at the more interesting battle imageries. Our battle imagery should be the most boring to watch. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi winked at him, "Don''t bet on this, hehe."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why? Because of my beautiful looks?"

    "No," Shui Xisi giggled. "Because of my alluring looks and beautiful figure."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "They are mostly female spiritas. They won''t be interested in another maiden¡­"

    But before he could finish, Shui Xisi had retreated to another corner to cultivate quietly.

    Ji Yuan took ast look at her alluring figure as he sighed softly to himself: Sisi, be careful. I have the most uneasy feeling about this trial. Don''t die on me please¡­

    Then he thought of Xiao Muhan: He is probably dead now. That''s the life of a cultivator. I salute you, Brother Xiao Muhan¡­

    A short whileter, he had also found a corner and he began to sit down to cultivate.

    As he sat in meditation, he was pleased that the boundaries of his inner spiritual sea were now 8 times bigger now. But this would also mean that it would take him a long time of cultivation to refill his inner spiritual sea.

    Although his speed of cultivating his inner spiritual sea was slow but Aura was actually 10 times faster than him.

    He waspletely stunned by her speed of cultivating the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to refill his inner spiritual sea.

    And moreover, the spiritual aura that Aura had condensed into his inner spiritual sea was much purer than him; this resulted in his impure spiritual cultivation to be dissipated by the purer cultivation of Aura.

    In the end, Ji Yuan felt defeated by Aura the Divine Tree and he drawn upon his inner spiritual sea to hasten his bodily healing instead.

 Chapter 925 The 3rd Level Of The 4th Trial (2)

    ?

    The three hours of rest were up quickly.

    And Ji Yuan and his team began to pick themselves up one by one.

    They did not need to inform each other as it was only a light meditation plus, they were actually meditating near each other and their divine sense easily alert them to any slight movements.

    Ji Yuan said to everyone, "We should continue on our way now."

    Tian Ao asked him curiously, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, so which way should we go?"

    This was a good question. There were mountains everywhere and even ake here. It was impossible for even Shui Xisi to fly so high to see where the next portal was unless she was willing to mount her phoenix god beast to scout ahead of them.

    Ji Yuan nced at Shui Xisi when he had thought of this.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she pointed to the northeast, "We should go there. The portal is over there."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "How do you know?"

    Shui Xisi smiled alluringly, "I tell youter so trust me."

    Ji Yuan had a look of disbelief as he looked at her but he quickly said to Tian Ao and the rest, "Let head in the northeast direction."

    After he had said so, Ao Tian began to lead Baitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong and Hu Butao ahead.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was with Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu and Shui Xisi behind.

    Once on the road, Ji Yuan turned his head to ask Shui Xisi. "So you can now tell me how do you know where the portal is?"

    He said so without slowing down his pace.

    Actually, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were curious as well.

    Hua Yunzi said quietly, "Let me go ahead with Maiden Hongyu first since this may be inconvenient for Maiden Xisi to share it with us¡­"

    "No need," Shui Xisi interrupted with a soft chuckle. "Actually, I can sense where the portal is with my Thousand Mile Divine Sense."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately as he returned a perplexed look at her, "I have never heard that you got a Thousand Mile Divine Sense."

    "Well, you do now. It seems that you have a lot to learn about me." Shui Xisi chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Why do I need to know so much about you? This isn''t a cultivation test, right?" Ji Yuan bitterly said before adding, "I hope that you are not pulling our legs even though we have 3 days toplete this trial."

    Shui Xisi smiled wryly as she exined, "Actually it isn''t too hard. There are only two paths ahead of us. One to the northeast and one to the northwest. While it may seem to be going to two different directions, it will all lead to the same ce eventually."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "How can you be so certain about this?"

    Shui Xisi said yfully, "Because we are early! What if we didn''t make it on time? This is a trial so they can''t really disqualify the champions recklessly or else there won''t be a fifth trial. So, depending on our choices, it is only a matter of difficulty."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he rubbed his chin, "Well, this makes sense. So you really don''t have the Thousand Mile Divine Sense?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled at his reply, "What do you think?"

    "I guess not." Ji Yuan frowned.

    Shui Xisi just smiled alluringly at him, refusing to confirm with him. The truth was, her divine sense was truly the Thousand Mile Divine Sense, the same as her Sister Feifei. So she was not lying to Ji Yuan when she had said that. Also, she could indeed sense where the final portal was.

    Whether Ji Yuan would believe her or not, is not really important to her.

    What is really important to her, is Ji Yuan''s heart for her.

    She has the intention to pester Ji Yuan endlessly after the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as she has already given her heart to him.

    Hua Yunzi said quietly, "I feel that Maiden Shui Xisi is right. It doesn''t matter which direction that we are choosing. It won''t be easy so we should exercise some caution instead."

    Xie Hongyu nodded, "I agree with Maiden Yunzi on this."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "And I agree with the two of you too. Haha¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi muttered, "Weird. This man doesn''t trust me but can trust the other two maidens so readily. Isn''t this weird or not?"

    JI Yuan ignored her and continued walking fast.

    Actually, it was not because he did not trust Sisi but she was just too mysterious for him to believe her sometimes.

    4 hourster.

    All of a sudden Tian Ao was shouting to the team, "Look!"

    And he looked very excited and so did the others!

    On a hill slope, there ware 3 Dao Fruits that were radiating rainbow hues!

    And many of the cultivators were gasping now, "Dao Fruits!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked too; it is because a Dao Fruit is one of the rarest spirit fruits in the entire Celestial Realm and it can increase the cultivation tremendously or is capable of giving a profound insight that may be helpful in the future. Also, it can even promise a 100% ascension to the immortal realm and even grant 3000 year extra years to the celestial as well!

    And they had spotted 3 Dao Fruits!

    Tian Ao immediately said, "There are 9 of us here and only 3 Dao Fruits. Should we draw lots to see who should get the Dao Fruits? This will avoid fighting among us."

    All the cultivators, including Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were all excited because they were all eager to have a chance to eat this Dao Fruit!

    Only Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan did not look so excited.

    In fact, Ji Yuan smiled nonchntly after his initial shock, "I''ve enough of my lucky urrences here. So I''ll like to give up my lot to the rest."

    When he had said that, all the cultivators were shocked.

    "Are you sure?" Wang Gongzi asked Ji Yuan with a shocked look.

    Beitang Hai was also shocked, "This is a most unbelievable rare find and the Dao Fruits are useless to most profound beasts too so there shouldn''t be any powerful profound monsters guarding it."

    Shui Xisi looked at Ji Yuan with a look of disbelief, "Maybe he doesn''t know how valuable a Dao Fruit is. Hehe."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course I do know. But I follow my own Dao so I don''t need a Dao Fruit."

    Shui Xisi giggled, "The Dao of the Beard?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The real reason why Ji Yuan had decided to give these Dao Fruits a miss was because he had a ominous feeling about these Dao Fruits that he could not finger; it was because these Dao Fruits were in in sight of their route and it was all too strange for him.

    Ji Yuan is a suspicious person by nature and he did not like free of charge things that drop from the heavens just like this even if its benefits are known to him.

    Shui Xisi quickly turned to say to the rest, "I am giving up my chance for the lot as well. But that is only because these Dao Fruits are fakes. So believe it or not."

    When she had said that, the rest of the cultivators were startled and were shocked.

    The Dao Fruits are fake?!

    This should not be, right?

    The profound animus of these Dao Fruits is so profound and just cing their divine sense on them is enough to give him many possible small insights.

    JI Yuan was also startled as he looked at Shui Xisi, "They are fakes?"

    Shui Xisi answered nonchntly, "Yeah. I think so."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "You think so?"

 Chapter 926 The Dao Fruits

    ?

    When Shui Xisi had said that these Dao Fruits were fake, there were some doubtful looks on their countenances.

    Tian Ao simply said to the rest, "Those that wants to draw the lots, pleasee over my side."

    Hua Yunzi doubtfully looked at Shui Xisi but in the end, she lowered her head to say. "I believe in Maiden Shui Xisi¡­"

    Actually, she did not believe in Shui Xisi but she had decided to cast her lot with Ji Yuan since he was not drawing a lot too.

    It was her support to him even though this Dao Fruit was far more valuable than even a celestial-step divine sword!

    Shui Xisi could see that Hua Yunzi did not believe her but she was also wondering why she did not want to use this opportunity to gain her fortuitous encounter?

    Then she caught Hua Yunzi looking nervously at Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan was also looking awkwardly at Hua Yunzi¡­

    She was frowning immediately: The 2 of them must have an affair together¡­ I am 100% sure about this.

    There were now 5 other cultivators that were crowding around Tian Ao now; they were Baitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao and Xie Hongyu.

    With 9 people casting their lot, everyone has a 1/3 chance of obtaining a Dao Fruit.

    But with Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and Hua Yunzi deciding to forfeit their chance, they were down to 6 and has a ? chance of obtaining a Dao Fruit.

    All 6 of the cultivators were feeling excited because this means that they all have a 50% chance of obtaining a Dao Fruit and they all believed that they could be ones that should be obtaining the Dao Fruit instead of the other.

    In the Celestial Realm, a single Dao Fruit could cause all the cultivation holynds to fight bitterly over it, resulting in heavy casualties throughout the entire celestial fraternity.

    Right now, the 6 cultivators were actually contesting over 3 Dao Fruits in a most amicable manner!

    It was not to say that there were no cultivators among them that would actually want to take possession of all 3 of the Dao Fruits but it was only because Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were really such super cultivators that they feared to be too greedy in front of them.

    Even if the two of them wanted all 3 of the Dao Fruits, they would be powerless to stop them.

    Much to their surprise, they were actually uninterested in the 3 Dao Fruits which were extremely puzzling to them.

    This was most puzzling because the Dao Fruit was worth even an entire holynd!

    Although Ji Yuan knows how helpful the Dao Fruit was but he was also someone with a poor grasp in knowing how valuable a profound treasure truly was and he was someone that would not fight with the other cultivators to obtain a profound treasure by any means.

    It was precisely why it was so that Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and the other maidens would sometimes rebuke him for badly managing his finances but it was also why they like Ji Yuan; he was not greedy unlike the other cultivators, valuing his own face over the profound treasures.

    But this time Ji Yuan actually knows how valuable a Dao Fruit is since it is a legendary profound treasure that all the cultivators know. However, he had an ominous feeling about it that he could not finger and that was the real reason why he did not draw his lot.

    Now Tian Ao was delighted when his proposal to draw lots actually had the backing of Ji Yuan as he was worried that this Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi may decide to seize all the Dao Fruits for themselves.

    Even when Shui Xisi said these Dao Fruits were fakes, it did not defer him or the others.

    There was no way for this Maiden Shui Xisi to know if the Dao Fruits were fake and she had no further proof other than her words!

    Maybe this was merely her scheme to take possession of all 3 of the Dao Fruits for herself!

    No matter what, they had all decided to cast the lots for the Dao Fruits first.

    Tian Ao broke some straws before handing it over to Xie Hongyu, "To ensure fairness, you shall hold the lots."

    Then he said, "The three longest lots shall obtain the 3 Dao Fruits."

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi, Zhang Feihong, Hu Butao and Xie Hongyu all nodded at the same time, agreeing with this n.

    Xie Hongyu took the lots and said to the 5 cultivators, "You guys can now pick the lots."

    Usually the holder of the lots would pickst and Xie Hongyu understood this rule well.

    One by one, the five cultivators began to pick the lot until thest one was left and that remaining one was for Xie Hongyu.

    At the same time, the 6 cultivators began to sh the straw lots to one another as they gathered in a circle.

    There were naturally 3 disappointed looks and 3 delightful looks.

    Tian Ao, Xie Hongyu and Zhang Feihong all got the longer straw lots and they were all delighted with the oue.

    As for Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao, they were cursing their poor luck; they had been so close to obtaining a legendary profound treasure!

    Tian Ao, Zhang Feihong and Xie Hongyu wasted no time in shing to the slope where the 3 Dao Fruits were and they began to pluck them!

    It was quickly done and indeed, there was no profound beasts to be seen as the others in their team watched them.

    In a short while time, Tian Ao, Zhang Feihong and Xie Hongyu were all smiling with great delight as they put the Dao Fruit in their spatial belt.

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly as she reminded them, "These Dao Fruits are fake. I don''t know why you can be so happy about it?"

    Zhang Feihong smiled back, "Even if these Dao Fruits are fake but I''m sure that it will bring upon us tremendous insights and benefits to our cultivation. But if Maiden Shui Xisi is interested, I may share a little bit of the Dao Fruit with you. But of course, there should be an equivalent exchange. I am actually interested in the fire feather of your phoenix god beast."

    Shui Xisi snorted, "However, I am not interested in your fake Dao Fruit."

    Zhang Feihong smiled, "Fake or not, it is for me to decide."

    Even Tian Ao and Xie Hongyu looked a little amused and like Zhang Feihong, they were not convinced.

    It was obvious to them that this Maiden Shui Xisi was actually envious of their lucky urrences instead.

    Zhang Feihongughed softly, "How about this then¡­"

    He had suddenly taken the Dao Fruit which was the size of a berry and put it into his mouth to swallow it.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "Let me evaluate the benefits of the Dao Fruit for everyone then."

    There was a smile on his face when he saw the envy look that was disyed by Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao.

    He chuckled, "It actually tastes delicious¡­"

    Then he disyed a startled but delightful look, "My cultivation is strengthening!"

    This further turned the faces of Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao green with envy.

    Even Tian Ao and Xie Hongyu who had the Dao Fruits could feel the profound animus of Zhang Feihong was strengthening right in front of them and they were also envious.

    Tian Ao chuckled as he quickly took out his Dao Fruit again and to swallow it in front of the others, causing Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao to be even more green with envy.

    The reason why Tian Ao had decided to eat the Dao Fruit now was because he was an old cultivator and he would gain the instant benefit of the new vitality that would be provided by consuming the Dao Fruit. Also, he was afraid that it may be stolen by the rest of his team and he may not even be alive at the end of the journey.

    That was precisely what Zhang Feihong was thinking when he consumed his Dao Fruit.

    Even though this team look cordial in their teamwork but they were all cultivators that were interested in their own benefits eventually.

    Moreover, they had no rtion whatever so with the other cultivators in this team.

    And to be a great saint or a great saintess, they had to face numerous intrigues and backstabbing in their long life of cultivation.

    That was why Zhang Feihong and Tian Ao had decided to consume the Dao Fruits immediately for fear that the other cultivators may decide to gang up in secret against them.

    This was one benefit that could not be shared for this was the legendary Dao Fruit!

    Even Ji Yuan was looking regretful when he had decided to give the lot a miss and he was drooling when Zhang Feihong and Tian Ao had suddenly consumed the Dao Fruits in front of his eyes.

    As he gulped regretfully, Zhang Feihong was suddenly screaming loudly and he had exploded right in front of them with a bloody mess!

    His cultivation core had exploded!

    This startled everyone who had all turned ashen.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What the heck?!"

    Shui Xisi simply said, "I told him that this Dao Fruit is a fake."

    Tian Ao had broken into cold sweat now and he had shed to Shui Xisi, "Great Saintess Xisi, please¡­ save me! I don''t want¡­ to die¡­"

    Xie Hongyu was also looking at Shui Xisi and everyone else with a frightful look, "This Dao Fruit is a fake?"

    Shui Xisi sighed softly to Tian Ao, "I am afraid that I can''t save you. Maiden Hongyu, may youe over to my side?"

    Xie Hongyu quickly came over to her side and Shui Xisi said to her, "Disy your hands."

    She did as she was told and Shui Xisi quickly poured an aromatic liquid on her hands from a small blue bottle.

    "You may think that golden celestials are immune to venoms but I can tell you that the Dao Fruit that you have just touched is highly toxic. My Fragrance Melody Water may be able to help you, hopefully."

    Xie Hongyu was shocked, "Hopefully?!"

    But as she said this, Tian Ao was screaming loudly now and he had suddenly exploded into a bloody mess!

    Shui Xisi nodded slowly, "Because I don''t know how dangerous these fake Dao Fruits are. So hopefully my Fragrance Melody Water will be useful."

    Xie Hongyu had turned very white and she was shivering with fear now; she did not want to die.

    As for Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao, they were suddenly thankful that they did not win the chance to obtain the Dao Fruit or they would be dead for sure.

    Even Ji Yuan was shivering when he saw how two great saints had simply died like this when their cultivation core had exploded; this was a most cruel way to die.

    He said weakly to Xie Hongyu, "Maiden Hongyu, you will be alright, don''t worry¡­"

    It was easy for him to say so and it only made Xie Hongyu more miserable as she wept loudly.

    Hua Yunzi also did not know how tofort Xie Hongyu and she was also frightened by what she was seeing.

    She could only thank her lucky stars that she had decided not to draw lots of the Dao Fruits on a spur of a moment by following Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan turned to Shui Xisi and asked bitterly, "Sisi, how do you these Dao Fruits are fake?"

    Actually, the other cultivators were also interested to know the reason why as well.

    Shui Xisi pondered for a while before she answered, "I seem to remember that they don''t grow in threes. Only 1 Dao Fruit is capable of growing at the same time and there should be no other Dao Fruits nearby as well."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I didn''t think that your cultivation knowledge even extends to the rare Dao Fruits."

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Actually I don''t think anyone else knows about this. I know because I have once eaten a Dao Fruit and someone once told me. That is why I know that these Dao Fruits are fake as their profound animus are different from the Dao Fruit that I have once taken."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "Sisi, you have taken a Dao Fruit before?!"

    Not only Ji Yuan but the rest of the cultivators were also shocked that Shui Xisi had once taken a Dao Fruit before!

 Chapter 927 Real Or Not Real Dao Fruit

    ?

    Shui Xisi said to Xie Hongyu, "You are lucky to have my divine water or you would surely lose your hands. This Dao Fruit has a most terrible rot that I have ever seen."

    She was not lying to her.

    And everyone could see so as well.

    It was because after Xie Hongyu had thrown away her Dao Fruit away, all the vegetation with 30m had all died and even the ground had turned ck!

    Xie Hongyu was grateful to Shui Xisi and she could feel that the divine water that Shui Xisi had used her was no ordinary profound treasure and she could even feel refreshed by it.

    Indeed, the Fragrance Melody Water that Shui Xisi had used on her was a divine water from the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm and it was extremely rare.

    The Great Goddess Fantian has bestowed this divine water on Shui Xisi who is her god-daughter and Shui Xisi has even taken on her god-mother''s maiden surname.

    The Great Goddess Celestial Alice may be the ruler of the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm and is a second generation immortal but whenpared to the Great Goddess Fantian who is the creation goddess of all the first generation immortals, the status between the Great Goddess Alice and the Great Goddess Fantian are extremely cleared.

    Even the Great Goddess Celestial Alice has to bow in front of the Great Goddess Fantian!

    And Shui Xisi is the god-daughter of the Great Goddess Fantian!

    Naturally this is Shui Xisi''s secret and she did not want to reveal it to anyone, including Ji Yuan.

    To the others, this may be a secret that she did not want ever to reveal but to Ji Yuan, she wants to surprise him and look at his silly expressions.

    A short whileter, Ji Yuan and his team continued on their way again.

    Their team was now left with 7 cultivators.

    There were many spirit herbs and nts along the mountains as they rapidly moved through it but most of the cultivators had lost their moods to pluck any of the spirit nts.

    4 hourster, they saw another Dao Fruit hidden in the shade of a mountain cliff.

    The sight of a Dao Fruit was a tempting sight for many of the cultivators.

    Beitang Hai was weakly asking, "Since this Dao Fruit is growing alone then it must be a real one, right?"

    Hu Butao was also inhaling deeply as he said, "I think so."

    Wang Gongzi weakly looked at them, "So what we pluck it or not?"

    He was also looking at Shui Xisi at the same time.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: This one must be a fake too¡­

    Xie Hongyu had lost all interest in plucking any Dao Fruit even if it is real.

    As for Hua Yunzi, she had decided not to pluck anything in this ce as this ce was too peaceful and she had not forgotten that they were in the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris or Darkness.

    After witnessing the terrible deaths of two of the cultivators, she was extremely cautious.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "This one is also a fake."

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao were all shocked.

    Beitang Hai muttered, "This one is a fake too?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi smiled wryly, "If you don''t believe me, you can try to pluck it or to consume it."

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao had no courage to pluck the Dao Fruit after they had heard her.

    Shui Xisi saw that they were still hesitating so she started to pull Ji Yuan to walk away from them, "Let''s go. Let them think if this may be a profound treasure or not. They will catch up anyway."

    As for Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi, they did not hesitate to follow Shui Xisi at all.

    Beitang Hai, Wang Gongzi and Hu Butao were left alone to debate the merits of obtaining this Dao Fruit; this was their heart demon as they simply could not give up such a rare cultivation profound treasure and be on their way. Moreover, they still think that it was impossible for Maiden Shui Xisi to know if this may be a real Dao Fruit merely from looking at it, even if she said that she had once consumed one before.

    They argued that Maiden Shui Xisi had once mentioned that the real Dao Fruit grows alone and not in threes. So, this may be the real Dao Fruit.

    Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi did not wait for them as they continued first, knowing that they were probably arguing if they should pluck the Dao Fruit. As cultivators, they had no right to prevent them from obtaining their lucky urrences in the trial.

    A short whileter, they spotted another Dao Fruit by the roadside.

    Ji Yuanughed, "This Dao Fruit must be a fake too because this one is too obvious. You can''t find any good things by the roadside."

    Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi were both nodding and agreeing with him.

    Shui Xisi giggled, "This one is the real Dao Fruit¡­"

    When she had said that, she had already plucked it and forced it down into the mouth of theughing Ji Yuan and hit him on his chest, forcing him to swallow it.

    Ji Yuan was horrified, "Sisi! What are you trying to do? Are you trying to kill me?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "I say already. This is the real Dao Fruit so I am feeding it to you. You should thank me instead."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I don''t believe¡­"

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were both looking quite horrified that Ji Yuan had just swallowed a roadside Dao Fruit¡­

    Shui Xisi giggled, "There should be a real Dao Fruit somewhere here and it is the one that you have taken. The fake ones are all copying the profound animus of the real Dao Fruit. Although it may look the same but it can''t fool me."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I hope that you are right or else you will soon lose your best friend today. And I hope that you will live to regret this day forever and always remember me in your heart¡­"

    He was suddenly interrupted by a loud explosion behind the mountains that he was previously at a while ago.

    Shui Xisi sighed softly, "It seems that one of the cultivators cannot resist the temptation to pluck the Dao Fruit and has even consumed it."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Soon it will be my turn and I didn''t even want to pluck it. Thank you, Sisi."

    Shui Xisi giggled yfully at him, "Since you are dying, do you want to take your revenge on me?"

    Ji Yuan answered her bitterly, "I don''t have the mood to take my revenge on you."

 Chapter 928 The Level 3 Final Trial Portal

    ?

    As soon it had be apparent to Ji Yuan that he was not dying, he wasughing jovially and he had even pped Shui Xisi on her butt, much to her annoyed astonishment.

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were also startled too but they were even startled when Shui Xisi was only feeling annoyed and did not feel offend by the spanking act; there was no outcry about her loss of modesty.

    From her casual look, it looked like this was not the first time that Ji Yuan had touched her butt.

    They guessed that there may be something going on between the two of them.

    "Haha, I feel a little stronger now. But actually, I don''t really feel a thing?"

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "Are you expecting the effect of the Dao Fruit to be so pronounced? Stupid Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan continued tough jovially, having restored his mood.

    "You know, if a cultivator is too stupid, I am afraid that even the cultivator is to obtain the Dao Fruit, it is still futile to have it," Shui Xisi said softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck? I will be stupid?!

    After I have banged you, let''s see who is the stupid one. Haha!

    But he quickly said silently: Thank you, Sisi¡­

    Xiang Li whispered to Anyang: Just a minute ago, Big Brother is looking so depressed¡­.

    Anyang pointed to Xiang Li: That is the depressing feeling of betrayal by a love one¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned to them: Do you think I didn''t hear you? I trust my Sisi 100%! Who says I am depressed just now? I am just thinking how nice she is for giving it to me instead of taking it for herself. Hahaha¡­

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Aura was suddenly saying with great delight: This Dao Fruit¡­ is helpful to me¡­ thank you¡­ massterr¡­

    Ji Yuan was surprised, and did Xiang Li and Anyang: Erm, d it is useful to my Aura¡­ what did you do with it? And how does it help you?

    Aura giggled softly: I use it¡­ as my spiritual fertilizer.

    Ji Yuan, Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    But on the other hand, Beitang Hai and Wang Gongzi both had an ugly expression; it was because Hu Butao had won the right to have the Dao Fruit and he had also consumed the Dao Fruit but at the same time he had exploded himself and had also met with his own demise.

    While they were arguing if the Dao Fruit was real or not, it seemed to them that Ji Yuan had found a real Dao Fruit and Ji Yuan had consumed it.

    This naturally caused them to be green with envy.

    Hua Yunzi was quite relieved that Ji Yuan was actually alright after eating the Dao Fruit and by now she knows that this Maiden Shui Xisi was not trying to harm him.

    But she was feeling strange why this Maiden Shui Xisi did not consume the Dao Fruit herself and she had instead given it to Ji Yuan?

    It was obvious to her that Ji Yuan did not have the ability to discern the real from the fake Dao Fruit and that only Shui Xisi knows.

    Even if Maiden Shui Xisi has taken a Dao Fruit before but it is perfectly alright to take another to consolidate one''s cultivation foundation. Moreover, the Dao Fruit is able to add 3000 years to the cultivator''s life. This alone is enough to make the holynds fight aggressively for the Dao Fruit to prolong their lives!

    Ji Yuan''s team was now down to 6 as they continued their way to the mountains.

    There were many spirit herbs along the way and even a Dao Fruit but no one had the mood to pluck them when Shui Xisi shook her head and said, "These are all fakes."

    Finally, after another 10 hours, they saw a shimmering ck portal below the mountains.

    Without a doubt, this was the final end point.

    Wang Gongzi and Beitang Hai were looking quite relieved that they had finally reached the end point and they had shed down the slope of the mountain in a hurry; in this level alone, they had lost more cultivators than the other levels.

    They just did not have a good experience for this level!

    JI Yuan inhaled deeply, "So it is now farewell for now until the final trial¡­"

    Shui Xisi asked him softly, "You look anxious?"

    Ji Yuan waited for Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu to walk ahead of him before he turned to sigh woefully to her, "Indeed I am. I am anxious for Ling Feiyue, Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu¡­ this level alone has a temptation that is unlike the other levels. You know how greedy Ling Feiyue and Lu Jiangsu can be; they just pluck everything regardless of the consequences. They won''t suspect that these Dao Fruits may be fakes¡­"

    Shui Xisi was also saying quietly, "I hope that they will be alright¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed bitterly, "In this trial, I may have lost more friends and soul mates than in the other trials¡­"

    Wang Gongzi and Beitang Hai bowed were the first to have reached the final trial. They then turned around and bowed with their hands to Ji Yuan and to the rest before stepping into the shimmering ck portal.

    A whileter, Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu, Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan had also reached the bottom of the mountain where the shimmering ck portal was.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly said to Hua Yunzi, "Maiden Yunzi, shall I speak to you for a minute in private?"

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly before she stepped into the dark shimmering portal, "Farewell, Ji Yuan!"

    Xie Hongyu bowed her hands to Ji Yuan, "Thank you, Great Saint Ji Yuan for your aid in this trial¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Then with a flushed look, she had stepped into the shimmering dark portal too.

    Now it was only Hua Yunzi and Ji Yuan.

    Hua Yunzi curiously looked at Ji Yuan, "Yes?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I want to ask you¡­ that night¡­ when you have left¡­ did something happen between¡­ the two of us?"

    Hua Yunzi was startled by this question as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan for a while.

    Then she quickly regained herposure to smile coyly, "No."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Is that so¡­"

    Hua Yunzi had suddenly turned around to walk away and at the same time she was heard saying, "Farewell and thank you¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grabbed her tender wrist. "Maiden Hua Yunzi¡­"

    Hua Yunzi lowered her head and she was trembling, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, if you want to woo a maiden, this is not the ce. Don''t forget that we are in the midst of a trial. Also, I will never like you. I am a dirty harlot of the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a grin, "No, you are not a dirty harlot in my heart. You are yourself and Hua Yunzi. And I think of you as a friend too."

    Hua Yunzi was shaken as she muttered slowly, "We are¡­ friends?"

    Ji Yuan nodded firmly as he held onto her wrist, "Naturally we are friends and I don''t many friends."

    Hua Yunzi was trembling, "You don''t need friends. You need confidants and you have plenty of them. For example, Maiden Ling Feiyue and Maiden Shui Xisi. Maybe to you, I am merely a backup in case you lose them to a trial¡­"

    "Maybe you are a confidant too," Ji Yuan grinned.

    Hua Yunzi shook free of Ji Yuan''s hold on her wrist before she hummed coldly, "Maybe yes. Maybe no. Or never will it be¡­"

    Then she had shed into the dark shimmering portal¡­

    Ji Yuan was left alone to ponder, "She is lying¡­ about that night¡­"

    Xiang Li asked curiously: Big Brother, how do you know?

    Ji Yuan frowned: Because I can tell cos I am an expert liar myself¡­

    Anyang nodded: Well, she is lying for sure.

    Ji Yuanughed: See Xiang Li! Even Anyang agrees with me on this!

    Anyang giggled softly: I saw you banging her that night, so I know that she is lying.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck? And you didn''t tell me?

    Anyang giggled; You didn''t ask me, my lord.

    Xiang Li bitterly said: Howe I didn''t know about this?

    Anyangughed softly: The drinks that she brought that night can even knock down a fairy spirit and I was knocked down after a while too but not before I see what had happened.

    Ji Yuan was gasping: So, I was not merely having a wet dream¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The dark apparition of the Trial Spirit in the Spiritas Tower was now furious that she was unable to kill Ji Yuan on the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris.

    "Ji Yuan, you may have made it through the fourth trial but I can promise you that you won''t make it through to the fifth trial!"

    Ji Yuan and his team were actually the first team to havepleted the fourth trial, three days ahead of the others.

    Elsewhere, there were still many teams on the level 1 and level 2.

    None of the teams have actually made it to the level 3 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris yet.

    There was one team that was closed to the level 3 and Ling Feiyue was in that team.

 Chapter 929 The End Of The 4th Trial

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had entered the shimmering portal, the profound voice of the Trial Spirit boomed above him.

    "Your team is the first to reach the end point of the fourth trial. In additional to 3 days of break, you are 2 ? days early for this trial. All in all, you shall be granted 5 days of rest before the start of the fifth and final trial."

    After that he had materialized in his city-state arena again.

    But this time, he was alone.

    There was no sight of Xiao Muhan or his Senior Sister Chu Lixue since his team was first.

    With a soft sigh, he began to sit down in a corner to cultivate.

    But he was actually feeling quite restless as he was quite anxious for Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Xiao Muhan.

    As for Shui Xisi, he was not worried for her since they had ovee the fourth trial together.

    He was not worried that they could not ovee the first and second level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris but he was worried that they may not be able to ovee the temptations that were at the third level.

    He had thought that he had a good team and they were able to ovee the first two levels with barely any losses except for one Huo Mingdi that tried to kill him. So this was not the trial issue.

    But on the third level, there were 3 great saints that could not resist the temptations of plucking the Dao Fruits and they had met their demise by having their cultivation core detonating forcefully, which was a most horrible way to die.

    After Ji Yuan had cultivated for 2 more days, he saw a cultivator shing into the arena and after a while, he had recognized the cultivator to be Yang Batian.

    Yang Batian was delighted when he saw Ji Yuan, "Hahahaha. I know that the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan will be able to ovee your trial."

    JI Yuan smiled when he saw that it was someone that he had recognized, "Finally there is someone! I was so bored for the past 2 days."

    Yang Batian was startled, "You mean you havepleted the trial 2 days ago?!"

    "That''s right. Anything wrong?"

    Yang Batian bitterly said, "This trial isn''t easy at all. It tested the cohesion of the team at all the 3 levels and I lost 6 of my team due to temptations."

    Ji Yuan was forced to admit, "Actually, it isn''t easy for my team as well. We have lost 4 cultivators and they are all great saints."

    Yang Batian coughed weakly as he nodded, "I see. I must go and cultivate for my profound strength now¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded as he saw that Yang Batian had several wounds on his body.

    Yang Batianughed coarsely as he said to Ji Yuan, "You too. You look worse than me. Hahahaha."

    Indeed, Ji Yuan was covered with severe burns by the 81 purple lightning tempering but he was feeling quite alright by now after he had a break of 2 days but it was mostly thanks to Aura.

    By now, he had regained 30% of his inner spiritual sea and the Dao Fruit seemed to help Aura a lot with her speed of cultivating.

    Now this 30% of his inner spiritual sea was even more robust when he was at 100% of his inner spiritual sea before he was struck by the 81 purple lightning.

    The profound effect of the 81 purple lightning had a most pronounced effect on his inner spiritual sea and profound strength.

    During this time, he had also remembered he had asked the Goddess Destiny for a divination on the oue of his trial and she had replied, "You will meet with plenty of crisis and death will longer around you."

    He sighed to himself: This Goddess Destiny is indeed a Great Oracle. I shouldn''t have doubted her¡­

    He continued to cultivate but it was mostly to cultivate for the speedy recovery of his wounds.

    Another 1 day soon passed and it was thest day of the fourth trial.

    But there were only two breathless and wounded cultivators that had appeared in the arena.

    All in all, it seemed to him that their city-state arena only has 4 surviving champions.

    There was no sight of Xiao Muhan or Chu Lixue.

    It means that they had probably met their demise in this trial.

    Although Ji Yuan had mentally prepared himself for the worst but deep in his heart, he was still unable to ept it.

    The Trial Spirit announced over the arena, "The fourth trial has ended. A total of 55 champions have made it to the qualifying fifth round."

    Ji Yuan began to sigh heavily; it was because there were still 4 champions in this arena and there was no sight of either Xiao Muhan or Chu Lixue!

    The Trial Spirit continued to announced, "The qualifying champions will be given 3 days of cultivation rest before the start of the fifth trial."

    There was nothing that Ji Yuan could do now and he was miserable.

    The other two male champions were not as lofty as the champions that had looked down on Ji Yuan at the start of the trial here. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    In fact, they disyed a grudging respect for Ji Yuan and Yang Batian since they were all the surviving champions and they were all extraordinary in their own ways.

    One of the male champions introduced himself as Wu Henan and he was a champion of Divine Consort Tang Manni.

    As for the other male champion, he had introduced himself as Gongsun Yi and his patron divine consort was Dongfang Xin.

    It was now obvious that Divine Consort Sun Dingjun had no more champions and she had beenpletely eliminated from the fifth trial.

    Ji Yuan and Yang Batian had also introduced themselves to the two champions.

    Ji Yuan asked them if they know Ling Feiyue, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong or the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu from their surviving teams.

    To his disappointment, either Wu Henan or Gongsun Yi had heard of them.

    After that, they began to take their cultivation rest as they all had some degrees of injuries on them.

    -

    -

    -

    In the divine temple of the Snowy Pavilion City, the 4 divine consorts were d that Ji Yuan had made it through to the qualifying rounds of the fifth trial.

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun did not look disappoint at all when all her champions had been eliminated since she was rooting for Ji Yuan in the first ce anyway.

    "Yuan Beluga has made it through to the qualifying fifth trial now¡­"

    "Our city state only has 4 champions for the fifth trial¡­"

    "I thought that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan would die from eating that Dao Fruit¡­"

    "Me too¡­"

    "This Maiden Shui Xisi, who is she?"

    "She looks close to him¡­"

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­ spank her butts¡­"

    "It isn''t surprising that so many celestial maidens will love my Yuan Beluga. He is not only handsome but also a noble hero¡­"

    "But do you think that it is weird that the number of Dao Fruits in Ji Yuan''s trial is more than the others?"

    "As long as Ji Yuan can live through to the fifth trial, I don''t need to care about my other champions¡­"

    Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were also d that Ji Yuan had survived the trial.

    Yu Jingjing asked Yang Mi, "You are not sad that your Sister Chu Lixue didn''t make it to the fifth trial?"

    Yang Mi smiled, "Her team got lost in the level 2 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris and her team got disqualified as the five days are up. I guess that my sister is now hopping mad because of this. But as long as she is alive, I am already too d."

    Maiden Flower Ju smiled wryly to them, "At least it is better than Xiao Muhan and his team. They got disqualified at the gates of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris and did not even have the opportunity to enter into the ce. But I d that he didn''t because he won''t be able to survive anyway."

    Yu Jingjing smiled before she turned to Yang Mi to say, "Maiden Ling Feiyue, Maiden Zhi Jiugong and Maiden Lu Jiangsu had all made it through to the fifth trial. I hope that they will be alright or Ji Yuan would be so sad."

    While Destiny may appear to beposed but she was really upset inside; it was obvious to her that something was wrong with the trial that Ji Yuan was in and someone was out to kill Ji Yuan.

    Her first person that she suspected was naturally the Goddess Ai Tina.

    But she could not find a reason why the Goddess Ai Tina would want to kill Ji Yuan after he had saved her and Xu Yifei from Number 1.

    But sometimes there was no need for any reason to hate someone.

    She got a big shock when Maiden Shui Xisi had suddenly thrown a Dao Fruit into Ji Yuan''s mouth and she had almost appeared to kill this Shui Xisi.

    But luckily, Ji Yuan was perfectly alright and he seemed to be in a rtionship with this Shui Xisi as well.

 Chapter 930 Ji Yuans Broken Heart

    ?

    For the next 3 days of the cultivation rest, Ji Yuan did not cultivate at all.

    Rather he began to fast and hold a simply remembrance services for his friend Xiao Muhan, confidants Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, fianc¨¦e Chu Lixue andstly his consort Ling Feiyue.

    He refreshed the good old times when he was drinking and quarreling with Xiao Muhan and all the silly things that they did together.

    "Brother Xiao Muhan, I''ll always remember you. We are renowned as the Two Brushes and now I am the only Brush that is still alive. It will never be the same again¡­ I used to chide you for your cowardice but actually you are just being cautious. Now it is toote to wish that you are less brave now for you are no more¡­ farewell my Brother Xiao Muhan¡­"

    "Maiden Zhi Jiugong, you are the most refined maiden that I''ve ever known. Now, we can no longer exchange any instructions in music together¡­ and I miss you ever since that night¡­"

    He remembered that passionate night that he had with Zhi Jiugong in the Demonic Divine Realm¡­

    "Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu¡­ you are the most lovely maiden and not free of charge for I have not yet banged you. If I can turn back the clock, I''ll bang you even if it is not free of charge. I miss your lovely looks and your noisy chats¡­ farewell Maiden Lu Jiangsu¡­"

    "Senior Sister Chu Lixue, I really miss you. Especially the night when I have finally copted with you. Imagine my excitement when I am parting your legs and touching you¡­ you are indeed the Smiling Divine Maiden. I miss your divine smiles¡­ this trial is too cruel to the two of us¡­ farewell too, my fianc¨¦e Lixue. I''ll break the terrible news of your demise to your Sister Yang Mi and my old man¡­ I hope that they can take it well¡­ even though my old man is an old cultivator that have seen many cycles of deaths but I don''t believe that he won''t break down or else he won''t be looking for you in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth every 500 years¡­"

    "s, Ling Feiyue¡­ my consort¡­ my Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­"

    "Why did you leave me so early? Didn''t we promise to stick with each other forever? We have even created the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon together. I can''t ept your demise¡­"

    "We have been together for so long during the past 2 years. We been through numerous trials and battles together. And you have decided to leave me now? This is too ridiculous and shameless!"

    "If you are still alive, then I would be willing to let you scold me whatever you want to and I won''t rebuke you back. I know that you can''t be bothered to be angry with me but I''ll promised to let you gossip about me and I won''t be angry with you. Is that alright with you?"

    "Silly me¡­ you are no more now¡­ Feiyue¡­"

    "I still remember how we have met and how I have offended you by touching you while you are in a man''s clothing¡­ how we have fought 100 yearster¡­ how we have braved the purple lightning tribtion together¡­ how I have given you an emperor-step divine sword for your protection¡­ s¡­ Feiyue¡­ Feiyue¡­ you are as refined as Maiden Zhi Jiugong and your smiles as heavenly as my Senior Sister Chu Lixue¡­"

    "Farewell my Consort Ling Feiyue¡­"

    Ji Yuan spent the 3 days thinking about his lost ones and he was bitter; he did not like this murderous trial at all despite the benefits that he had gained so far.

    Xiang Li and Anyang did not know how they shouldfort Ji Yuan but they could sense that he was quite heartbroken and he did not answer them for 3 days.

    Xiang Li was also grieved as she said to Anyang: No more bang, bang.

    While Ji Yuan looked like a strong person outside but in his heart, he was a sentimental person.

    That was the reason why Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, who were his core prot¨¦g¨¦s would fall in love with him even though he had been very strict and was sometimes appearing to be heartless to them with his ugly words.

    The 3 days of cultivation rest was quickly over.

    The Trial Spirit was now announcing, "The fifth trial will be starting soon¡­"

    Ji Yuan, Yang Batian, Wu Henan and Gongsun Yi were aroused from their cultivation rest and they were also looking much refreshed than 3 days earlier.

    The Trial Spirit continued, "The fifth trial will be called the Hungry Games Trial that willst for 5 days. In this trial, you will be split into 5 main teams of 11 each. All 5 teams shall be sent to 5 different locations on an ind and your objective is to reach the center. The rules will be exined to you after your team is formed¡­"

    "As for now, you will be sent to your team first and like the previous trials, you will be given an opportunity to get to know your team and to n for your strategies¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s first thought after hearing the Trial Spirit was that he may be able to meet Shui Xisi again even though she may be from a different team since they would all bepeting to reach the same objective. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But there was something that he could not figure it out yet; there would be 6 winning champions but there are actually 5 teams with 11 champions each. So how do they determine the winning champions?

    But before Ji Yuan could ponder further, he was taken by a sh of light to a new arena where 10 other champions were also being sent to.

    When his vision had cleared, he saw that there were already 10 other champions that were already in ce there.

    But to his utter surprise, he saw that Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were among the 10 champions!

    He stammered almost incoherently, "They are not dead?!"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were both delighted to see Ji Yuan and they had quickly surrounded him.

    Zhi Jiugong smiled to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, you are well. I have heard that you have be the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, the Divine Lord Ji Yuan and also the personal guard of honor for the Goddess Ai Tina."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ I have a little luck here¡­"

    "Hey Ji Yuan! Howe you''re not dead yet?" The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu chuckled.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Although I am not dead but I am afraid that my Senior Sister Chu Lixue and also your prot¨¦g¨¦ sister is one with the heavens now¡­"

    The Lovely Empress stepped hard on his foot as she said unhappily, "Rubbish! My senior sister will be well!"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I hope so..."

    Zhi Jiugong said quietly, "Senior Sister Lixue, she is a peaked great saintess. I''ve faith in her."

    But her saddened eyes had betrayed her instead.

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily before he was soon adding with more bitterness, "My Feiyue is also no more too¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress did not know how tofort Ji Yuan when they saw his expressions.

    When they saw Ji Yuan''s sorrowful look, they were saddened as well; while they did not know Ling Feiyue for a long time but Ling Feiyue was actually the spiritual leader of the maidens as she filled them in with all the ridiculous things that Ji Yuan had ever done.

    To them, Ling Feiyue was a close sister and she was a irreceable bridge to the other maidens that they did not know yet such as Xue Qianxue, Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia), Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Saintess Yuluo and Ling Tianshui.

    But now, she was gone.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu pursed and bit her tender lips, "Ji Yuan, I know that you are grieved but please be strong. We don''t want this to happen as well..."

    The Trial Spirit had suddenly announced, "You have 1 hour to get to know each other first¡­"

 Chapter 931 The Rules For The 5th Trial

    ?

    The Trial Spirit had announced, "You have 1 hour to get to know each other before the trial starts¡­"

    "For this trial, it is called the Hungry Games. You will be divided into one of the five teams on an ind. The goal is to reach the center of the ind and to score points. The top 6 champions with the highest points will naturally be crowned the winning champions¡­"

    "All of you will be given a trial token and the aim is to collect as many of the trial tokens as possible¡­"

    "You will be allowed to ughter each other from outside your team, earning 3 points. If you kill your own team mate, you will lose 3 points instead¡­"

    "Taking your opponent token will give you 1 Point while losing your own token will cost you 3 Point. Taking your own team token will gain you 0 points¡­"

    "In order to touch the emperor stone in the center of the ind, you must have at least 19 points¡­ after that you will be taken to a safe area. No more points can be earned until the 5 days trial duration is over¡­"

    "Also, there are 9 shadow cultivators called the Destroyers on the ind too. If they kill you then all the tokens that you are holding will be lost. But if you manage to kill 1 of them, 5 points will be given to you¡­"

    "For this trial, you have 5 days to hunt one another down."

    "The 1 hour time grace starts now¡­"

    With that, the arena was quiet again.

    Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had turned to the rest of the 8 champions and everyone began to slowly walk to the center.

    There were two champions that Ji Yuan had actually recognized and they were Wang Gongzi and Wu Henan.

    Wang Gongzi was in his team from thest trial and Wu Henan was from his city-state arena.

    "Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, we are in the same team." Wu Henan smiled at him.

    Wang Gongzi had raised his hands to bow at Ji Yuan too, "We have met again."

    Quite a few of the cultivators were also greeting one another as they were acquainted previously in thest four trials.

    Other than Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, all the other champions were all males and they were all from the Celestial Realm.

    And many of the eyes were looking at the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as they were captivated silly by her enchanting lovely smiles.

    A cultivator looked at the Lovely Empress and said politely, "Maiden Jiangsu, we have met again¡­"

    But the Lovely Empress shed her small canines instead and looked away indifferently.

    Ji Yuan was frowning; this cultivator was greening him in front of him!

    "May I know your name, cultivator brother?"

    The same cultivator frowned when he saw Ji Yuan, "I am Great Saint Ai Jueluo. What is your cultivation realm, Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was just too renowned that everyone seems to know that he was the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and there was simply no need for him to introduce himself.

    However, few cultivators know of his cultivation realm and that was why this Great Saint Ai Jueluo was asking him this question.

    Ji Yuan casually said, "Great Saint Ji Yuan. I think the majority of you are great saints as well, right? Or it will be hard for you to reach the fifth trial."

    The other 3 cultivators that Ji Yuan did not know were nodding.

    They promptly introduced themselves as Great Saint Bai Qinghe, Great Saint Song Qingshu and Great Saint Qin Gang.

    The other two cultivators were both middle-tier saints and they introduced themselves as Saint Wu Yifan, Saint He Tiandong.

    Everyone quickly introduced themselves as they only had one hour to form a team and to select a leader.

    Although it was not necessary to select a leader but it was better than bing a headless team that was like loose sands.

    Moreover, they would be fighting against 4 other powerful teams too.

    Ai Jueluo quickly volunteered himself as the team leader as he wanted to impress the Lovely Empress, "I may not be as strong as some of you but I can be an impartial leader."

    He had purposely given praise to the others for being stronger than he was before pointing out his own merits.

    By now saying that he was the strongest cultivator, he was able to avoid a direct confrontation with some of the more aggressive cultivators.

    Ji Yuan who was feeling green by his own team because most of the champions were mercilessly staring at the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong who were too revealing in their attires, said. "This won''t do. If you want to be a leader then you have to tell us what''s your ns are first."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ai Jueluo smirked coldly, "My n is simple. Stay as a team. Kill the opposing cultivators and take their tokens to maximum our points. Kill any shadow cultivators if we spotted them. Isn''t it simple enough or you don''t understand the objective of this trial?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do we need to kill the other cultivators when we can take their tokens?"

    Ai Jueluo angrily said, "Are you dumb or you did not pay any attention to the Trial Spirit? Killing a cultivator gets you 3 Points while a token only gets you 1 Points. In total we can get 4 Points. If you spare a cultivator, we will lose 3 Points. That''s a lot and we need 19 Points to touch the emperor stone in the middle of the ind."

    Ji Yuan frowned even more when he had heard him; there is no way for him to hunt down Shui Xisi or the Smiling Divine Maiden. They are his beloveds!

    "I don''t agree with your n." Ji Yuan said unhappily, "I can hunt for 19 tokens instead or I can kill 4 of the shadow cultivators for my points."

    Ai Jueluoughed softly, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you seem to have forgotten that there are only a limited number of tokens to be gained and only a limited number of shadow cultivators to be found on the ind. The main objective is for us to kill each other. If we don''t kill them, then are we waiting for the others to kill us instead?"

    When he said that, Great Saint Bai Qinghe, Great Saint Song Qingshu and Saint Wu Yifan were actually nodding; indeed, they cannot allow themselves to be used as points. Only the others deserve to be their points instead.

    Song Qingshu who agreed with Ai Jueluo said, "We have no other choice. While 19 points may be the qualifying number of points to enter the safe arena, it actually isn''t the final score to be dered as the winning champion. So, we ought to score as many points as possible."

    Ji Yuan said unpleasantly, "Have you ever consider that there is a w in the points setup?"

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan exined, "What if someone from the same team were to ughter everyone and then give their tokens to an enemy member?"

    Ai Jueluoughed coldly, "This is quite unlikely. Why should anyone do that for? Unless¡­"

    He started to look at Ji Yuan up and down, "Unless you are thinking of doing precisely that silly thing?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Of course not. But there is a possibility, right?"

    Great Saint Bai Qinghe interrupted, "We don''t have time to debate all the possibilities. We''ve only 1 hour to form our team or to split our team. Why don''t we vote for our team leader instead?"

    Then he smiled at Ai Jueluo, "I vote for Great Saint Ai Jueluo to lead our team."

    Much to Ji Yuan''s surprise, Ai Jueluo actually got 7 votes.

    Only Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and Wang Gongzi did not cast a vote.

    The reason why Wang Gongzi did not cast a vote was because he actually had more faith in Ji Yuan than this Ai Jueluo.

    As for Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress, they were actually uninterested in making their votes, especially when they noticed that this Ai Jueluo was targeting Ji Yuan.

    Ai Jueluoughed jovially, "It seems that the majority has voted for me. So enough of your crap already, Great Saint Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he stepped back, "I am forming my own team and away from this team. So who wants to follow me?"

    Many of the cultivators were mocking Ji Yuan when they had heard him.

    But all of a sudden Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were smiling as they had suddenly walked behind Ji Yuan!

    "We will be following you, Ji Yuan." Zhi Jiugong disyed a faint smile as she looked gently at Ji Yuan.

    "That''s right," the Lovely Empress chuckled softly and she too, was looking lovingly at Ji Yuan. "We sort of like the no kill n of Great Saint Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "So that''s settled it. Our team shall be split into 2 instead. 3 here and 8 on your side. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, there were ugly looks on Ai Jueluo and many of the cultivators; it was not because Ji Yuan had formed his own team but because the two beautiful maidens had both joined him instead!

    Wang Gongzi was looking a little confused. While he did not vote for Ai Jueluo but he had not thought of joining Ji Yuan because it was safer to remain in a bigger team.

    So he did not expect that Ji Yuan would actually have the two beautiful maidens joining him.

    He could only silently say: Sorry, Brother Ji Yuan. I don''t wish to die by joining you. You are foolish to leave the team and so are the two foolish maidens¡­

 Chapter 932 The Fifth Trial (1)

    ?

    The 1 hour of grace was quickly up and the arena seemed to be opening up from the top to reveal tall trees.

    The Trial Spirit thundered over the arena, "For this trial, there are no safe areas and the trial officially starts now."

    The 11 champions were now all listening attentively and nodding. At the same time, they were all looking at their immediate surroundings as the canopy of the arena began to open up.

    Ji Yuan saw that they were in a forest and there was a mountain in the north side. And behind him was an endless ocean of water.

    He looked at the mountain and said, "Well, that probably is the center of the ind."

    Ai Jueluo hummed coldly in his direction, "Good luck to your tactics, Great Saint Ji Yuan."

    And he had left with his team of 8 cultivators.

    Wang Gongzi bowed with his hands in his direction to bid farewell.

    While it may seem like a friendly act, it was only because he was putting his bets on two baskets and he did not want to offend Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was not a young cultivator and he knows it but he did not expose Wang Gongzi.

    He was soon left alone with the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong now.

    Ji Yuan smiled to the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong, "Well, thank you for following me. Haha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Is it wise to split up the team?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "We may not be the only ones that will be doing so."

    Zhi Jiugong looked surprised, "Can you exin?"

    Ji Yuan exined with a grin, "The objective is not to reach the center of the ind where the emperor stone is at the very start. If we do so, then we may end up confronting all the cultivators at the same time and may even get ourselves killed."

    "But that is where all the points and tokens are, right?" Zhi Jiugong asked more curiously than before.

    "That seem to be the case." The Lovely Empress giggled, agreeing with her Senior Sister Zhi Jiugong.

    Ji Yuan turned to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as he frowned, "Why did you giggle for? You know my ns already?"

    The Lovely Empress shed her small tongue out, "No, I don''t. Hehe! But I know that we can''t be wrong by following your n because you are full of bad ideas."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Is this a praise or a p?"

    But he quickly exined when he saw Zhi Jiugong kicking the Lovely Empress to ask her to shut up, "We may not gain the points from ughtering the cultivators but we can certainly pick their tokens no matter what. Unless of course, they decide to enter the safe arena after obtaining 19 points."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded slowly, "So you mean to say that we follow behind that Ai Jueluo and be the hunter instead of being the hunted?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That is the n. Also, we need to find Maiden Shui Xisi and regroup with her."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "I hope that Maiden Shui Xisi will be able to endure until we can somehow find her. But we can''t be sure if her team is hostile to us or not."

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "No matter if her team is hostile or not, Sisi will definitely joins us. Haha¡­"

    Then he added with a grin, "And I am not worried about her."

    Zhi Jiugong was startled while the Lovely Empress had recalled pairing with her inside the Goddess Star Pce, "She''s really a strong great saintess."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan frowned, "She is strong but she isn''t invincible. But her pet is."

    "Her pet? What pet?" Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress curiously asked at the same time.

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "While we are at thest trial together, she got a 9th rank epic great phoenix as her contracted pet. And she calls her Augustina."

    "No way! Isn''t that a god-beast already?! You can''t contract a god-beast!" The Lovely Empress was stunned. "This isn''t possible at all¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong was also shocked, "It is true?!"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Not only did I see it with my own eyes but some of the cultivators in my team have also seen it too. It isn''t fake."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded slowly, "Luckily Maiden Shui Xisi is on our side¡­"

    The Lovely Empress pulled Ji Yuan to her and grinned, "Ji Yuan, are you sure that she is on our side? The two of you are constantly quarreling inside the Goddess Star Pce. What if she turns on you and ughter you for points instead? You know that the cultivators often betray one another in this manner. Are you confident about this?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually I am more worried that you will ughter me instead. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress kicked Ji Yuan hard when she had heard him.

    It took Ji Yuan to calm down hisughter before he grinned, "I can trust Sisi, of course. She is the sister of my Jiajia and in thest trial, she has also helped me by feeding me a Dao Fruit."

    The Lovely Empress was startled, "She did that? Are you sure that she isn''t trying to kill you?"

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "Of course not!"

    Then he asked curiously, "Howe the two of you can survive the level 3 of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris? You didn''t pick the Dao Fruits?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "The Dao Fruits are useless to us. You see, we have already consumed 3 Dao Fruits in the past. Our Mistress Yun Chi had given to us in the past. There is actually very little effect from consuming it the second and the third time. Andpletely pointless for the fourth time¡­ but I didn''t know they are fakes until some of my team members began to have rots on their hands or exploded. It was quite scary to witness it."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Yun Chi is so rich¡­"

    But he was soon sighing woefully, "My Feiyue probably died in this manner too. She has a bad habit of trying to pluck everything¡­ sigh¡­ even if she didn''t get the lucky draw of the lot, she will still try to obtain it through her own ways. She is after all, an unorthodox cultivator."

    Zhi Jiugong said quietly, "Maiden Ling Feiyue is actually more like a righteous orthodox cultivator and not an unorthodox cultivator. I don''t think she will do anything like obtaining the Dao Fruit the unorthodox way."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu nodded, "I agree with my Sister Jiugong too. And she doesn''t look like a greedy cultivator too."

    Xiang Li was also asking curiously to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you are painting Maiden Ling Feiyue in a bad light. I don''t think you''re right about this.

    Anyang was also agreeing with Xiang Li: That''s right.

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li and Anyang: Nonsense. I know Feiyue only too well. Don''t forget that she is my consort and we have even formed abine sword art together. This requires perfect understanding from each other in order to aplish this.

    At the same time, he was saying solemnly to Zhi Jiugong. "Trust me. I know Feiyue better than anyone else."

    2. Actually it is quite obvious that Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu will apany Ji Yuan in the fifth trial. All the maidens have a chance to be with Ji Yuan once *chuckle*, if you are noticing.

    3. Ling Feiyue is not dead, of course.

 Chapter 933 The Fifth Trial (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress quietly followed Ai Jueluo and his team.

    He grinned at them, "Finally we can all be together. You are all so beautiful in the spiritas attire."

    And he was looking up and down at them, causing Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress to flush.

    "Listen Ji Yuan. I have no other choice but to dress like this. It is the spiritas dress code," the Lovely Empress shyly said to him.

    In her heart, she actually liked the spiritas dress but she had to maintain her dignity in front of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "There is nothing wrong with the spiritas dressing. It looks nice on both of you. Haha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong already had a rosy cheek when Ji Yuan was staring at them like a big wolf.

    Ji Yuan could not help praising them, "Nice butts too¡­"

    The Lovely Empress kicked Ji Yuan and warned him, "We are in the midst of a trial and we may be watched by the others that are outside. So don''t have any wicked ideas like touching us."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I haven''t even touch yet and thanks for¡­ the warning¡­"

    The two of them really looked so beautiful and coyly in the spiritas clothing that Ji Yuan had almost caressed them¡­

    But he quickly tried to distract himself from them after the Lovely Empress had warned him.

    He was actually surprised by how stealthy Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were so he asked instead, "Howe the two of you can be so stealthy?"

    It was because the team that they were following were mostly great saints and they all had powerful extra sensory perceptions in their divine sense; normally, it was hard to follow them without being detected even if they were 2 miles away.

    While Ji Yuan had stayed beyond the 2 mile range, he was following carefully and stealthy, as not to give away his position by the birds and insects in the forest.

    The Lovely Empress giggled, "That is how I can enter your room thest time without you knowing."

    She was referring to his inn room while they were still enemies in the Bliss City.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly tried to change the topic by saying, "This Ai Jueluo is really bold. He walked in the open and he is also moving rapidly."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded as she quietly said, "He is looking for a confrontation with the other teams. He seems very confident with his skills and his team''s skills."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "If he met Sisi''s team then they are going to be in deep shit."

    Zhi Jiugong gave a faint smile, "I think this Ai Jueluo isn''t that foolish. After all, he is a great saint and even if he is a foolish great saint, the others are not. So I think that they may have already devised a n and they are betting that the other teams may be moving cautiously. In this way, they are able to upy the high ground in the middle of the ind first¡­"

    "I got it, Sister Jiugong." The Lovely Empress chuckled, "Then they can be like us, and they can then whoop on the fighting teams by picking them one by one."

    Zhi Jiugong nodded with a smile, "And they can also shake us off too because we will be caught in the crossfire in the center."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Then won''t it be a mistake to follow them?"

    Zhi Jiugong nodded, "We may even be a bait for the other teams to attack us since we cannot move too close to Ai Jueluo and his team."

    "We are screwed." The Lovely Empress weakly said. "Maybe they already know that we are following them Ji Yuan, your n is lousy. So you have a better n?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden, they saw that one of the cultivators in the team, whose name is Qin Gang began to dash ahead to pluck a spirit nt that had a golden ball on it.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    He was the first to spot this spirit nt in the forest with his divine sense and he naturally wasted no time in trying to pluck it.

    Ji Yuan had no idea what this spirit nt and even the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were asking, "Is this a rare spirit nt?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled, "Sometimes it doesn''t matter if you don''t know what the spirit nt is. You can always pluck first and askter. For it to appear in this wondend, it will mean that it has to be a rare spirit nt. We are too far to gauge the age of this spirit nt though¡­"

    Qin Gang had indeed plucked the spirit nt and he was grinning to the rest of his team who were green with envy; it was because Qin Gang was only just a few moments faster than them and they had missed out on such a good fortuitous plucking.

    And this also showed the superiority of his divine sense over the others too.

    All of a sudden, all the cultivators were looking at Qin Gang with shock and so did Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong; it was because the roots of the alien spirit nt had suddenly wrapped itself around Qin Gang''s fingers and was sucking him dry.

    However, Qin Gang was obviously not aware of this as he continued to grin to the others while walking back to his team.

    He had used his right hand to pluck this spirit nt and now half of the right side of his body had been turned into a broiling sea of blood worms that were eating at his body.

    Ai Jueluo and many of the cultivators had all turned ashen now and were even taking several steps backward.

    Great Saint Bai Qinghe was heard shouting, "Wait! Don''te near us¡­"

    Wang Gongzi stammered, "Did you not feel anything at all?"

    Qin Gangughed, "Are you envious that I got to this spirit nt first? Come and take a look at it. Maybe one of you will be able to help me to identify this spirit nt?"

    When he had said this, he began to lift the spirit nt in front of him so as to show it to the others.

    But his pride had quickly turned to horror when he saw that his right hand and even the entire right side of his body were being eaten away by masses of blood worms!

    He was so shocked that he had raised his voice to scream with horror¡­

    But he had no sooner screamed out halfway when Song Qingshu had mustered three golden profound javelins to sunder through his throat, silencing him almost immediately.

    In the next instant, Qin Gang had fallen onto the ground and he was swallowed up by the earth, to be recycled for a future trial.

    Song Qingshu was panicky as he turned to say to the others, "I didn''t mean to kill him. I didn''t expect for him to be weaken to this point that I can kill him with my profound arts¡­. And I have lost -3 Points because of this¡­"

    Ai Jueluo angrily said, "Why did you do that for? You have just killed one of the cultivators in our team!"

    By now, Song Qingshu hadposed himself and he was solemnly exining, "It is not my intention to kill him but to silence him. If he screams, he may attract unwanted attention from the other teams, the shadow cultivators or even profound beasts to our team. This is something that I wish to prevent."

    When he had exined it, the furies of Ai Jueluo and the team began to cool off; in fact, they were all nodding with approval.

    Ai Jueluo said to him, "Brother Song Qingshu, I am sorry for being rude to you. I see the reason now. And I am also sorry that you have lost 3 points for trying to help the team. My sincere apologies to you!"

    The others were all quick to offer their apologies to Song Qingshu.

    After that, Ai Jueluo said to the team, "Let''s go."

    Soon everyone began to follow Ai Jueluo with more haste into the forest.

 Chapter 934 The Fifth Trial (3)

    ?

    Ji Yuan saw that Ai Jueluo''s team did not even bother to pick up the token that was left behind by the dead Qin Gang.

    He saw that the same spirit nt was now growing on the small mound where Qin Gang had disappeared and that his token was now resting next to it.

    "They are leaving his token for us to pick?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled, "They dare not pick it up because they are afraid that they may be infected by the parasite worms. Also, the same team members won''t receive any points from obtaining a token from their own team."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "But even then¡­"

    He had suddenly shed to where the spirit nt and he had disyed a burst of his sword energies to destroy it.

    Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were soon next to him as well.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Even then, I still have to destroy this evil spirit nt. Haha¡­ someone may pluck it by mistake."

    The Lovely Empress chuckled softly, "I certainly won''t pick it."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "But someone else may enjoy picking a roadside flower."

    The Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong: ???

    Roadside flower?

    This spirit nt doesn''t look like a flower at all¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually not referring to this spirit nt but he was warmly recounting the roadside flower that Jiajia had imed to pick in the past and she had tricked him into fighting a duel with her.

    "So, Ji Yuan," the Lovely Empress smiled lovingly at him as she interrupted his thoughts. "Do you have a new n now? If they are using us as a bait then won''t we be considered foolish to be used by them just like this?"

    "That is a good question," Ji Yuan frowned. "Let me think about this¡­"

    "You mean, you don''t have a n." The Lovely Empress chuckled lovingly, "Then why don''t you just say so?"

    Even Zhi Jiugong was smiling at how the Lovely Empress had teased Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan frowned weakly, "You know. I''ve thought that I have just survived Sisi''s cold sarcasm in thest trial but I have to survive yours too. Sisi and you together are like two unstoppable bitches¡­"

    The Lovely Empress stopping her smiles and pped Ji Yuan''s shoulder hard, "Mind yournguage. Who are the bitches?"

    But Ji Yuanughed instead, "If it isn''t obvious then I can repeat myself again. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress interrupted him coldly, "I bet that my Senior Sister Lixue won''t be able to stand you when she is alone with you. She is too serious unlike the two of us. You have better behaved in front of her or you will soon lose all your good points with her."

    Ji Yuan grinned at her: Actually, I have banged the Smiling Divine Maiden several times over. Hahaha¡­.

    He was suddenly interrupted when Zhi Jiugong had gently touched him, "The other team is getting a little far now. So what is our new ns? Do we follow them or?"

    Ji Yuan purposely turned to her and stared down at her alluringly bosoms¡­

    "Erm¡­. I am thinking¡­"

    But he could not think when Zhi Jiugong''s alluring bosoms were upying a big portion of his mind and he was thinking of tworge melons instead¡­

    "Ji Yuan?" Zhi Jiugong called out to him. "You there?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "We should follow them a little longer. At least until we have a clearer idea on what we are going to expect from this ind¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan paused as his sharp eyes spotted a shadow moving from afar away toward Ai Jueluo''s team.

    It was a mere shadow but when it moved, it was just an afterimage of its shadow.

    Ji Yuan said all of a sudden, "Wait. I think I saw a shadow cultivator or the Destroyer."

    The lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were startled as they started to follow the direction where Ji Yuan was looking at; ording to the Trial Spirit, there were a total of 9 Destroyers on this ind. And each one of them was worth 5 Points.

    However, they could not spot anything¡­

    Ji Yuan really had a terrifying eyesight as he said slowly, "This Destroyer seems to have spotted Ai Jueluo''s team from 3 miles away and is 5 miles away from us. I guess that its divine sense is sharper than most of the cultivators. It doesn''t seem to have spotted us so it means that its divine sense may not extend more than 4 to 5 miles¡­"

    "It may be a lone Destroyer but it doesn''t seem to be afraid of a group of cultivators so it must be a formidable enemy. Hm, I guess that it isn''t called the Destroyer for nothing¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned around and grinned to them, "I have a new n now. Let''s intercept this Destroyer and see what it can do. But don''t help me first. I will test its strength first. If anything is amiss,e help me but stay 4 miles away."<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Zhi Jiugong gasped, "4 miles? Are you sure? What if you got ughter along the way? 4 miles in this thick forest means at least 10 minutes even if we run to you at full speed."

    The Lovely Empress was also gasping, "Isn''t this too dangerous? Are you sure, Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "We need to fight a Destroyer sooner orter. Moreover, it is worth 5 points. Don''t worry, I''ll be fine."

    With that, he had shed ahead of them, determined to intercept the Destroyer that was going for Ai Jueluo and his team.

    The Lovely Empress sighed softly as she looked at Zhi Jiugong, "I don''t think this is a wise n¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong returned a faint smile to her, "Junior sister, he is a sword saint and also a sword deity. Don''t underestimate Ji Yuan¡­ our future lord."

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly when she had heard her, "Future lord? Senior sister, have you lost your chastity to him already?"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled and said instead, "Have you lost yours to him?"

    The Lovely Empress softly chuckled and she returned a coyly look, "Not yet. Hehe¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong smiled, "Then don''t wait. Or else you will lose him to the others."

    The Lovely Empress chuckled lovingly, "He dares?"

    Then she coyly protested, "He is so reckless. Maybe he will die inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth or some other battles outside. I... I don''t want to be widow... for him!"

    Zhi Jiugong merely smiled since she knows that Lu Jiangsu actually likes Ji Yuan alot.

    -

    -

    -

    In the divine temples of the 12 city-states of Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad. All the divine consorts and spectators were excited that the fifth trial was now starting.

    Most of the attentions of the divine consorts and the spectators were actually upon Ji Yuan and they were surprised that Ji Yuan had split from his team and he was in thepany of two astonishing beautiful maidens.

    One of the maidens had the loveliest of smiles and she was a charmer that caused the male champions to stare at her, just like the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    Tang Manni said with a look of envy, "Master Ji Yuan is with two maidens? They look quite close¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er nodded slowly, "They are Yuan Beluga''s friend as well?"

    Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were looking at Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing for an answer.

    Yu Jingjing smiled, "They are Maiden Zhi Jiugong and Maiden Lu Jiangsu. They are both Ji Yuan''s good friends and we are taking the traveling together."

    Tang Manni weakly said, "Master Ji Yuan sure has a lot of confidants everywhere he goes¡­"

    All of a sudden there was a delightful smile on her countenance as Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had suddenly appeared with a faint smile at the entrance of the divine temple.

    The rest of the divine consorts, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Dongfang Xin were all smiling when they saw her.

    This included Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and many of the female spiritas in the divine temple as well.

    However, the Goddess Destiny had a startled look however when she looked at Xu Yifei and she was muttering to herself: Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has a breakthrough? Her profound animus seems so different now...

    Xu Yifei smiled and said to everyone, "I hope that I didn''t miss anything¡­"

    But her beautiful and tender eyes were already looking at the battle imagery where Ji Yuan was.

    Tang Manni delightfully said, "Sister Yifei, you havepleted your seclusion."

    Xu Yifei smiled enticingly, giving a slight nod as she walked over to embrace Tang Manni. "Indeed. I am also so d that Ji Yuan is still well¡­ but he looks injured?"

    Tang Manni smiled, "Come sister, let me tell you what happens to Master Ji Yuan recently¡­"

 Chapter 935 Rey Pugpatine The Woke Empress

    ?

    The Destroyer was a shadow manifestation in the shape of a cultivator and hence it was also called a ''Shadow Cultivator''.

    Ji Yuan had spotted the Destroyer from far away.

    His divine sense was useless as he was not able to sense it until it was near to him so he had to rely purely on his good eyesight.

    He was quite astonished that it would move so fast without even disying any of its profound animus.

    When Ji Yuan had suddenly emerged and attacked with his divine sword, the Destroyer was surprised as well for Ji Yuan was simply approaching too fast and he had concealed his divine sword until the veryst minute so that he would not disy any of his profound animus.

    The Destroyed raised its sword when Ji Yuan had suddenly attacked but was forced to take 7 steps backward.

    Ji Yuan was not surprised that he had not hit his target and he was preparing for his next attack, "A, I didn''t score a hit¡­"

    All of a sudden the profound animus seemed to have changed as it became another shadow entity and it appeared to be much stronger than the original Destroyer.

    The Destroyer had flickered a little before its profound aura was disyed and Ji Yuan was astonished by it; 9th cultivation realm!

    "What the heck?! 9th cultivation realm?! Is this even a fair trial?!" Ji Yuan was shocked by the intense pressure of this aura and he had also mustered his great saint profound aura together with his sword aura as well as his ultra sword spirit to resist the intense pressure that had surrounded him like a force field.

    The Destroyerughed and a coarse feminine voice could be heard, "The Destroyer is capped at the half-step of the 8th cultivation realm. But I am not the Destroyer. I have recognized you and I havee to kill you by possessing this Destroyer!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You are not the Destroyer? Then who are you?"

    The shadow manifestation form resounded with deepughter, "I am Rey Pugpatine the Woke Empress and in the Spiritas Tower, I am invincible and also the strongest living entity. Consider your bad luck in encountering me. I am not as easy to handle as the Snow ck hunter that you have fought previously."

    Ji Yuan was forced to agree bitterly; previously he had fought some of the powerful 8th immortal cultivators and it was not an easy fight. Moreover, this Rey Pugpatine was a 9th realm immortal spirit entity!

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan had suddenly said, "I don''t understand. Do you have anything against me? I don''t remember offending you, am I right? Why do you want to kill me? At least you owe me an exnation, right?"

    He got a feeling the Spiritas Tower wanted to kill him all this while and now it was confirmed. But still, what did he do to offend the Spiritas Tower and this Rey Pugpatine?!

    Rey Pugpatine mocked him, crackling a hideousughter. "Because you are such an ugly cultivator that got the attentions of all the divine consorts to your battle imagery. In my Spiritas Tower, all men are scumbags and trashes to be disposed! There is no need for any saviors or heroes except for the female champions!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "I am an ugly cultivator? Nonsense! I know I am a beautiful cultivator. But you, on the other hand, is an ugly female spirit entity!"

    Rey Pugpatine raised her dark sword and dozens of profound sword energies exploded upon Ji Yuan and at the same time she was smirking, "I am the Woke Empress that everyone worships as their deity. Die, you ugly cultivator!"

    This was her reply to Ji Yuan and her reply was to attack him!

    But Ji Yuan had already shed out of the way as he was not willing to receive the profound power of a 9th realm immortal entity at point nk.

    He had actually been preparing himself for a surprise attack and while he quickly moved out of the way, he was also shouting back. "Heh! Unfortunately for you. I am not willing to die in this little ce. I am someone that has received the blessing of the Great Beyond Goddess and is destined to be an immortal. Haha¡­"

    To his surprise, Rey Pugpatine was suddenly upon him and she had sent her ck sword on him.

    JI Yuan raised his sword to block her sword attack but the brutal profound power of his opponent quickly sent him to fly through the woods.

    "The Great Beyond Goddess will not bless someone like you!" Rey Pugpatine angrily shouted and her hideous voice thundered throughout the vicinity.

    And she had raised multiple profound dark swords to chase after Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan quickly disyed his flying swords domain and sent his nine flying swords to cover him while he kited in the forest.

    However, Rey Pugpatine continued to pursue him relentlessly. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan shouted back angrily, "Well, I have even kissed the Great Beyond Goddess and in the future, I have the intention of banging her as well. Haha¡­"

    He was only trying to enrage this Rey Pugpatine.

    Actually, he had quickly regretting saying so; it was because he had suddenly remembered that the Great Beyond Goddess was his Master Old Reverend Beiyuan''s mistress and therefore, also his grand mistress. And he wondered if the Great Beyond Goddess would strike him down dead instead.

    Let''s hope that the Great Beyond Goddess didn''t know about this¡­

    "How dare you have such heretic thoughts!!! The Heavens and the earth shall not spare you! You shall find no rest whatever so. Your impure soul shall be shredded to pieces and feed to the pigs!"

    But this caused Rey Pugpatine to be so enraged that her profound power had further increased as tworge profound energies shot like two beams of ck light and exploded around Ji Yuan, startling him.

    If he had been slower by a mere second, he may be pulverized.

    But he shouted back instead, "Feed me to the pigs? I love my bacons!"

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking: What the heck?! She could keep attacking without a break? Is our disparity so great? I can''t even get close to her for my melee attacks¡­

    He had changed his priorities from fighting to getting this Rey Pugpatine away from Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress.

    In the meantime, Xiang Li was saying to Anyang: Big Brother wants to bang the Great Beyond Goddess, did you hear that?

    Anyang smiled weakly: He is going to be dead because of this¡­

    Aura was also saying: Masst¡­ster wants to bang who? Is this Great Beyond Goddess stronger than my mistress? Let meee tell my mistress¡­.

    -

    -

    -

    In the divine temples and colosseums of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, all the divine consorts and spectators were shocked when they saw how powerful the ''Destroyer'' was.

    They could not hear any sounds so they were privy to the conversations between Ji Yuan and Rey Pugpatine.

    But one thing for sure, this Destroyer was abnormal strong and it seemed terribly wrong!

    In fact, this was not the first battle between the Destroyer and the champion teams.

    A Destroyer had ambushed a team and killed 2 cultivators before it was killed. While thebat level of the Destroyer was high, it was not as exaggerated as the one that Ji Yuan had been fighting.

    In the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City, the Goddess Destiny had suddenly stood up with a shocked look and she had identified the threat that was pursuing Ji Yuan: This is the profound darkness that is within the Spiritas Tower! She called herself Rey Pugpatine?

    Unlike the others, she could hear the conversations between Rey Pugpatine and Ji Yuan because of the skull ring that Ji Yuan was wearing.

 Chapter 936 Hello Team, Again!

    ?

    In the thick forest, Ai Jueluo was gossiping to his team as they walked rapidly in the forest.

    "That stupid Great Saint Ji Yuan actually has the audacity to venture on his own. I don''t mind if he goes off alone but he has to take all the maidens in our team with him. It is too ridiculous!"

    Bai Qinghe said coldly, "I am inplete agreement with you, Brother Ai Jueluo. Because of him, we have lost Qin Gang and is now down to seven."

    "Don''t let me see him again or I will surely bash him up," Song Qingshu was also frowning.

    Wang Gongzi weakly said, "Do you think that we should give a warning behind for Great Saint Ji Yuan so he could avoid plucking the spirit herbs on this ind?"

    He was still grateful to Ji Yuan for his aid in thest trial.

    Wu Yifan spat, "Give him a warning?! He is the one that caused our team to be smaller in size! What if we run into a bigger team then we will be at an disadvantage!"

    When he had said that, Ai Jueluo, Song Qingshu and Bai Qinghe were all frowning angrily and giving him nods of approval.

    Wu Yifan was smiling because he was trying to tter to these great saints as he had a weaker cultivation than them.

    He did not care for this Ji Yuan as long as he could ovee this trial to im his reward. In fact, he saw this Ji Yuan as a possiblepetitor instead!

    Even though they were all in the same team but this did not mean that they could share the points from killing a cultivator and capturing a token; they still have topete among themselves for the prizes.

    The only thing that was preventing them from ughtering one another was that they gain no points from doing so and would indeed lose 3 points from killing one of their own.

    And Song Qingshu had identally killed Qin Gang and this had caused him to lose 3 points.

    Therefore, he was in a foul mood when he was talking about Ji Yuan.

    The other saint cultivator, He Tiandong who was in the same middle tier as Wu Yifang was more reserved.

    In fact, he had not condemned or stepped in say a word for Ji Yuan so far and he was trying to focus on the trial instead.

    The other cultivators did not bother him so far because he was a weaker cultivator and hence, he could pose no threat for the great saints in the team that were aiming to obtain the trial points. Moreover, he could be useful in a team fight.

    While Ai Jueluo was the leader and Bai Qinghe appeared to be buttering to him, things were actually not as simple as it looked.

    On the surface, these three great saints Ai Jueluo, Bai Qinghe and Song Qingshu may appear to be a brotherly group but they actually viewed one another as a possiblepetitor.

    But as they needed one another for now, they did not want to destroy this fa?ade so soon.

    Wang Gongzi may be a great saint as well but he needed them for both protection and for him to score his points.

    So while he tried to put a word for Ji Yuan but he did not want to offend the others too much over him.

    As the seven cultivators began to move hastily in the forest, all of a sudden they had heard a loud boom behind them and in fact, several of the towering indestructible iron trees seemed to be shaking.

    Ai Jueluo and the others were startled as they quickly unsheathed their divine swords.

    "We are under attack?"

    "Bu we juste from that direction¡­"

    "Something is behind us?!"

    "What the hell! Did you guys sense it? This profound aura is a 9th cultivation realm¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    "Is it a profound monster or a cultivator?"

    Wu Yifan cowardly said, "Should we make a run first? It is getting near to us¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had emerged from behind him and he was grinning, "Guys, we need to make a quick run. Hurry!"

    Ai Jueluo had an ugly look when he saw Ji Yuan, "What the hell is that profound aura behind you?! What did you do?!"

    But Ji Yuan had already sped past them, "I have no time to exin. I need to make a quick run first. You should run too or you will regret it. I don''t mind if you guys want to fight it for some points but I''m out¡­"

    As Ji Yuan and his voice disappeared, there was a dark profound force that sped through the forest and it had exploded upon Song Qingshu who was already blocking with his divine sword.

    But to the horror of Song Qingshu, he was flung 20m before crashing onto a tree; he coughed out golden blood but was not dead and he was only moderately injured. It was not that easy to kill a great saint.

    Ai Jueluo panicky asked the rest, "Do we fight this thing or run?"

    Bai Qinghe said quickly, "This Ji Yuan may be a coward but we are not cowards. Moreover, he is only one but we are many. Even if it is a 9th rank profound beast in front of us, in this forest, we have plenty of covers and room to maneuver."

    Wu Yifei nodded, "Great Saint Bai Qinghe is right. The body of a profound beast isrge and has the better advantage in the open but this is a forest and the trees here are like towers of irons. By adopting a hit and run tactic against the profound beast, we can exhaust it without getting ourselves hit. As the saying goes, two hands can''t defeat many hands!"

    At this moment, Song Qingshu had also picked himself up and he was saying weakly while still coughing. "I''m alright and I want to take my vendetta on my attacker! How dare it tries to kill me!"

    Ai Jueluo smiled, "Good! Since the majority wants to fight then let''spete for the kill then. Maybe we can even find some wonderful profound treasures. Haha¡­"

    He had sidelined Saint He Tiandong and Great Saint Wang Gongzi.

    "Charge! We shall teach this bastardly intruder a lesson!" Ai Jueluo had aroused the fighting spirits of the many cultivators in the team with his bold shout.

    Wang Gongzi said panicky, "Wait! Didn''t Great Saint Ji Yuan say that we may be able to obtain points from it? So it may not be a profound beast after all¡­"

    The rest had heard him but they had ignored him while Saint Wu Yifei turned around to grin at him, "Don''t be a spoilsport. Of course, it is a high ranking profound beast. Beside seizing points, it is also great to seize the parts of a high level profound beast for our cultivation. Hurry, or we will miss the loot¡­"

    All of a sudden, in the forest ahead, there were the terrifying screams of Ai Jueluo, Song Qingshu and Bai Qinghe¡­.

    "What the heck?! Did I just hear their screams?"

    Wang Gongzi had turned pale immediately and he had turned to run in the direction where Ji Yuan was running to.

    But after running for a few steps, he had second thoughts about this and decided to flee in another direction.''

    "Coward!" Wu Yifan spat when he saw that Wang Gongzi had ran away.

    He hesitated for a while before he decided to rush ahead instead; maybe these great saints were just shouting their battle cries and it would be awkward if he did not join in the battle after them. While he may not be a great saint like this Wang Gongzi but he was not a coward like him.

    "I''ming!" He shouted at the top of his lungs as he charged forward with his divine sword.

 Chapter 937 Ji Yuan Vs. Rey Pugpatine (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan continued to run deep inside the forest.

    He could hear loud screams from behind him but he could only bitterly smile, "I did warn you all to run away."

    By now, Ji Yuan had a breather and he had raised his other emperor-step divine sword Anyang and had even disyed his Deste Cherubim profound animus.

    He had merely run to buy himself some time to ready his sword domains.

    When he had raised hundreds of profound swords around him and disyed his Million Swords Field, the Destroyer called Rey Pugpatine had already shed into the clearing where Ji Yuan was waiting for her.

    And Ji Yuan wasted no time in unleashing hundreds of profound swords that exploded over her.

    Rey Pugpatineughed coarsely as she swung her dark sword with insane speed at the attacking profound swords, instantly dematerializing all the profound energies into nothingness.

    "You don''t understand? Do you? In the Spiritas Tower, no man can defeat me! I am thew of the Spiritas Tower and all your profound arts are like snails in front of me!"

    Ji Yuan broke into a cold sweat when he had heard her but he continued to disy his attacks.

    "Life and Death Domain!"

    "Harker of the Million Swords!"

    He had disyed his life and death domain over his Millon Swords Field and the profound power of his profound sword had once again increased by 3 folds.

    Now Ji Yuan was much stronger than previously especially when he had already been tempered by the 81 purple lightning tribtion.

    However, this did not stop Rey Pugpatine as she continued to smash all the profound swords that were around her with an insane speed; she was virtually unstoppable as she continued to walk toward Ji Yuan.

    There was a cold smirk on her face as she mocked hideously, "Hahaha. Is this the best that you can do?"

    Ji Yuan was in disbelief; this was his most powerful sword domain and yet all his hundreds of profound swords were smashed up so casually.

    No, that was not his best sword domain and most powerful profound sword art yet.

    It was because he had thought of a 6th sword domain after he had fought with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had charged up all his sword energies that he could muster into his two divine swords to disy the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    A powerful white profound light exploded from his sword to fire upon Rey Pugpatine, which forced her to raise her sword to block it.

    This sword energy profound art was difficult to evade because it covered a huge area of effect and Ji Yuan had locked her with his Harker of the Million Swords.

    Rey Pugpatineughed hideously as she taunted him, "Is this the best that you can still do? This puny amount of profound energies is still not enough to burn my protective profound animus!"

    Ji Yuan shouted in return, "Not yet!"

    "Life and Death Domain!"

    In this very instant, he had revitalized his Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon into a life and death sword energies profound attack, tripling its profound power!"

    "Ultimate Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon!"

    He had decided to call his 6th sword domain by this name.

    The profound energies of his new sword domain were so powerful that he could hear the hideous screams of Rey Pugpatine as it overwhelmed her.

    The Ultimate Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon was so powerful that its width had also tripled at the same time and many of the towering iron trees were even uprooted by the overwhelming profound energies that Ji Yuan had just unleashed! <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan breathlessly stared at the destructive might of his new sword domain profound art and he was impressed, "This is really my most powerful sword art. This Rey Pugpatine should be dead by now¡­"

    "Not bad. But you can only use this only once, right?"

    The shadow figure of Rey Pugpatine had suddenly emerged from the debris and unrest profound energies.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; she isn''t dead yet?!

    The shadow figure of Rey Pugpatine was trembling weakly but was quickly dispelling the damage and renewing her profound aura again.

    Ji Yuan had damaged her profound aura for sure but it was exactly as she had said; he could only use this powerful sword art only once.

    Rey Pugpatineughed, "I must say that I am impressed with this profound art of yours but against the solid foundation of my 9th cultivation realm and the mysticws of the Spiritas Tower, it is still not good enough. So, do you have any other sword arts that you are capable of using against me? But I must warn you first. I have witnessed your battles with Snow ck and none of your sword techniques will be strong enough to hurt me. This is yourst chance before I end your life."

    Ji Yuan was now too tired to run; he had hoped that he would run into some stronger teams and they would be able to slow down or weaken this Rey Pugpatine. Unfortunately for him, this Rey Pugpatine was simply too formidable.

    Is he going to die here today?

    Rey Pugpatine smirked coldly, "You don''t understand, do you? No matter how strong you are, you are unable to kill me. It is because you are a man and no man can kill me. Muhahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Even if I am a maiden, I can''t kill you. You are a cheater that abuse the mysticws of the Spiritas Tower just to kill me¡­"

    While he was saying this, he was already forming a new n as he thought: Sisi, where are you? I am going to lure this monster to you. So, lend me your god beast to deal with her. This may be my only way out of here alive¡­"

    Anyang said weakly: This n has a w. This ind is so big. How do you find Maiden Shui Xisi¡­

    Xiang Li cried: I don''t want Big Brother to die¡­

    Ji Yuanforted them: I shall feign an attack on her and then we shall run again¡­

    Just as he had said so, he was startled to see that there were 7 other Destroyers that wereing from all sides of the forest and they were all surrounding him.

    These 7 Destroyers all had the profound vibes of a half-step 8th cultivation realm!

    Rey Pugpatineughed, "ording to my analysis of you when you are fighting with Snow ck, there is a high possibility that you may run away from me instead of fighting me. And so, I have summoned all the remaining Destroyers here. In this way, you won''t be able to escape anymore."

    There were only 7 other Destroyers left as one of the Destroyers had been in elsewhere before the summon.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Rey Pugpatineughed hideously, "So, what are you waiting for? Are you waiting for my profound aura to fully stabilize before you attack me? If so, you are indeed a gentleman. A hopeless gentleman."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Well, I am a gentleman of the sword after all and is always gracious to the maidens."

    Although he had said that, he had already positioned his swords.

 Chapter 938 Ji Yuan Vs. Rey Pugpatine (2)

    ?

    Ji Yuan had already positioned his two divine swords as he prepared for an attack but he was a little panicky; it was because none of his melee attacks actually worked on this Destroyer that called herself Rey Pugpatine; she was simply too fast.

    He was already suspecting that he would not even hit her with his grand cross profound sword art and he was totally depending on this sword profound art to work as he lifted his two divine swords diagonally together.

    He was now musing by the words of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao who had once warned him not to depend too much on his life destructive sword domains because it could only be used only once.

    His only repeatable sword domain was his Flying Swords but it was also his weakest sword domain hence the reason why he could use it repeatable.

    Against this Rey Pugpatine that could move her sword so insanely fast, he was not going to hit her and even if he could, she would be protected by her formidable 9th cultivation realm profound aura.

    Although he had raised his profound power to the peak of the 8th cultivation realm with his deste cherubim, it was not a real 8th cultivation realm state of divinity and it could only be used to empower his offensive profound arts.

    Also, there was still a huge disparity between them even though it may only seem to be a power disparity of just one cultivation realm.

    In an exchange of profound strength between them, Ji Yuan''s deste cherubim was almost certain to be dispelled and he would be weakened instantly.

    That was the reason why he had to maintain a distance with this Rey Pugpatine as he wished to avoid losing his profound strength rapidly.

    Rey Pugpatine mocked him, "What are you waiting for?"

    Ji Yuan purposely disyed a grin as he looked at her and the 7 Destroyers that had formed a circle around him, "Hahaha¡­ I am just thinking of your silly face when you have discovered that I''ve destroyed your invincibility."

    As he said that, he had already shed his 9 divine swords in front of him.

    Rey Pugpatineughed hideously, "Your flying swords are useless against me¡­"

    When she had said that, Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her by sending two of his flying swords against her and also the rest of his 7 other flying swords in a different direction.

    "Life and Death Flying Swords!"

    Ji Yuan had once again mustered his life destructive flying swords; he only got one time to enhance the profound power of his flying swords.

    Rey Pugpatine quickly deflected the two flying swords away without any effort.

    Although Rey Pugpatine was capable, but the 7 Destroyers were not so fortunate and they were instantly killed by Ji Yuan''s flying swords.

    A profound transmission echoed in Ji Yuan''s ears: You have gained 45 Points from killing 7 Destroyers.

    Ji Yuan did not rejoice in obtaining the points and he instantly took the opportunity to muster his Thousand Sacred Swords profound art as he disyed hundreds of profound swords once again.

    Rey Pugpatine realized what Ji Yuan was trying to do as she swung her sword to interrupt him, and a powerful ck profound sword began to form from her ck sword.

    "This is my sword domain! The Woke Pugpatine Reigns! My sword art that severs all the past to bring glory to only me the Woke Empress! Ugly man, perish and go to the abyss!"

    ck lightning began to form around her gigantic ck sword that and it actually covered the skies above Ji Yuan, dwarfing his profound sword art.

    Ji Yuan was stunned; he had not expected for this opponent to be capable of using a sword domain of this insane power.

    But he quicklyposed himself as he disyed his 4th sword domain, the Thousands Flying Swords which was abination of his Flying Sword Domain and Million Swords Field.

    Instantly, his flying swords were among the hundreds of profound swords as it flew to intercept the gigantic dark sword of the Woke Pugpatine Reigns.

    Ji Yuan had previously used his Thousands Flying Swords sword domain to fight against Number 1''s Sword Dao of the Universe Border which was her supposedly most powerful sword domain. At that time, he had lost already lost his deste cherubim.

    Now he was using it again, but with the peak 8th cultivation realm profound power pf his deste cherubim profound power and also the profound strength of his 81 purple lightning tempering.

    Although his Thousands Flying Swords were formidable but under the intense sundering pressure of the dark sword that was crushing upon him, all his profound swords began to scatter like tofu pieces!

    Rey Pugpatine was at the 9th cultivation realm and naturally her sword domain was also at the 9th cultivation realm.

    This was totally different from Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao when she was using her Sword Dao of the Universe Border where she had restricted herself to the 8th cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan had broken into cold sweat and he was perspiring heavily; in just a few more blinks of an eye, he would bepletely be crushed by the dark sword that was exerting its formidable profound pressure onto him.

    All his profound strength was now being used to maintain his Thousands Flying Swords and he could not even move from where he was standing as he was being crushed by the gigantic dark sword that was pushing down upon him like a huge palm that was crushing at an ant.

    Ji Yuan had only one thing to say for hisst words as he exerted all his profound strength.

    Jiajia, farewell¡­

    Rey Pugpatineughed hideous when it was cleared to her that Ji Yuan''s doom was near. "I say before. No man can defeat me! Die!"

    But as the shadow of the dark sword was upon Ji Yuan, a gigantic silver dragon had suddenly appeared from nowhere and shattered both the sword domains, startling and shocking both Ji Yuan and Rey Pugpatine at the same time!

    This silver dragon was a god beast and it was so huge that they were like ants in front of it and the silver looming size of its feathered wings covered the entire heaven above them.

    The profound rank of this god beast monster was incalcble!

    And it had literally appeared from nowhere!

    Rey Pugpatine gasped with shock, "This is no ordinary god-beast¡­ this is a True Divinity God Beast¡­"

    It was not only the Rey Pugpatine who was shocked but Ji Yuan as well who was shockingly staring at this monstrous silver dragon god beast.

    He gasped with shock: Crap! An epic god beast?! This looks even stronger than Sisi''s 9th rank phoenix god beast... I know that I am going to ask Sisi for help with her god beast but not this god beast...<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    This was Ji Yuan''s dismaying reaction.

    Did he just jump from one burning pan to another?

    Before Rey Pugpatine could even react, the gigantic ws of this silver dragon god beast were upon her in an instant and her shadow form was ripped part!

    When she had died, she simply could not believe it and did not even know what had happened!

    Ji Yuan reacted immediately as he did not want to die by jumping upon the silver dragon god beast in the next instant with another sword domain of his, the Ultimate Grand Cross!

    He shed his profound sword art on the body of the monstrous silver dragon with a brilliant tearing white light but barely had he made his profound attack against the silver dragon god beast, he was sent flying backward by a giant smack and was sent crashing thunderously at the nearest towering iron tree.

    In that instant, his deste cherubim was also demolished by the attack.

    The silver dragon god beast took a look Ji Yuan who had coughing out golden blood and was silently saying: Uh¡­huh¡­ this is an ident¡­

    After Ji Yuan had coughed out blood, he had panicky forced himself to stand up to fight again. But to his utter disbelief, the silver dragon god beast hadpletely disappeared from the scene!

    It was as though what he had just seen was just an illusion.

    He looked around him with great disbelief, "What did that silver dragon god beast gone to? It can''t have disappeared just like this?!"

    All of a sudden, a dark profound energy from the remnants of the dematerialized Rey Pugpatine that was only visible to him and not the spectators had sped into Ji Yuan''s body, startling him.

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "What has just happened?"

    However, he could find no ill-effect on himself¡­

    On the other hand, he could feel a surge of profound strength from within his cultivation core.

    Ji Yuan was amazed, "This is weird¡­"

    Unknown to him, this profound darkness was swallowed up by Little Yui the demonic dark sword that was deep inside his inner spiritual sea.

    He continued to look around for the silver dragon god beast for it was impossible for it to disappear just like this.

    In fact, this was actually beyond his understanding!

    Ji Yuan pondered with bewilderment, "It seems that this silver dragon god beast has saved my life instead? And it did not mean any harm to me?"

    -

    -

    -

    In the Divine Temple of the Snowy Pavilion City, Destiny was quietly back to her seat again.

    No one had noticed that she was gone as she had left a temporary afterimage of herself as she entered into the Spiritas Tower to aid Ji Yuan.

    She had noticed the profound darkness that was after Ji Yuan and had finally found the source of the malice that was trying to kill Ji Yuan.

    Therefore, she had entered the trial through the skull ring that she had given to Ji Yuan in her true form and ripped the Woke Empress Rey Pugpatine apart, permanently ending her life.

    There were actually many times throughout the trials that Destiny had almost stepped in to help Ji Yuan but she had resisted the temptation to aid him or else she would have alerted the Profound Darkness that was in the Spiritas Tower that was targeting him.

    Now that the Profound Darkness had appeared, there was no hestiation from her as she emerged to aid Ji Yuan.

    Destiny nced at the battle imagery where Ji Yuan was and he was looking quite perplexed at his surroundings.

    She silently said: No man can kill you. It is what you''ve said but I am a maiden.

    All around her, the divine consorts Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were all shocked by the appearance of the silver dragon god beast and the appearance of a powerful Destroyer that tried to kill Ji Yuan.

    Everyone including Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had been shocked by the events that led to the fight between Ji Yuan and a powerful Destroyer that they were all riveted to the battle imagery where Ji Yuan was.

    The sudden appearance of the silver dragon god beast hadpletely shocked everyone to their wits!

    Just as they all thought that Ji Yuan was going to be ripped apart by this silver dragon god beast, it was suddenly gone again.

    This caused everyone to be shocked, puzzled, bewildered and confused at what was going on just now?

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin said unconvincingly to the others, "Maybe the trial has made a mistake with the strength of that Destroyer and so it has sent a god beast to destroy it instead?"

    Tang Manni was muttering instead, "Is the Goddess Ai Tina trying to kill Ji Yuan¡­"

    Xu Yifei could only smile most bitterly.

 Chapter 939 What Has Just Happened?!

    ?

    The Greater Spirit Realm;

    The Goddess Ai Tina was gasping as she looked with aplex expression at Achilles and Tang Li.

    What they had witnessed astonished herself and the others in this great hall; a silver dragon god beast of an unfathomable strength had appeared from out of the blue and had ended the malevolent Profound Darkness of the Spiritas Tower.

    With the death of this malevolent Profound Darkness, the Spiritas Tower was now back in their controls and even the Trial Spirit was normal again as the Profound Darkness could no longer take possession of the Trial Spirit anymore.

    Over the tens of thousands of years, this Profound Darkness had slowly gained sentient and bing a separate spirit entity that could mess up with the Spiritas Tower.

    In a way, it could be said that this Profound Darkness was also the Trial Spirit but it was the evil aspect of the Trial Spirit that had resisted control.

    That was why the Six Supreme Divine Gods had to imprison the Profound Darkness with their immortal arrays in order to control the Spiritas Tower fully.

    Over time as the Profound Darkness became trapped by the Six Supreme Gods, it had be more perverted. Perhaps it was due to the evil intentions of the Six Supreme Gods or some other unknown reasons, no one would be able to know anymore.

    The Goddess Ai Tina however was still looking weirdly at Tang Li and Achilles; it was because none of them could exin the appearance of a True Divinity Silver Dragon God Beast.

    Now there were many god beasts in both the lower Spirit Divine Realm and the Greater Spirit Realm. This god beast that had just disappeared was not only monstrous and could not be ssified as a first ss profound god beast (first ss is equivalent to epic).

    It was even beyond this and could not fit any ssifications!

    Perhaps a Super First ss or Super Epic may be more appropriable to describe a True Divinty God Beast.

    When the True Divinity God Beast had appeared, their divine senses were all shocked by the unfathomable aura that were being disyed by their immortal arrays and they were all even temporary suppressed by it in this great hall since they hadid their immortal arrays in this ce.

    So they immediately know that this was a god beast beyond any god beast.

    They had heard that even god beasts would stay steer of the True Divinity God Beasts although it was a merely a myth, until today.

    -

    -

    -

    As Ji Yuan weakly leaned onto a towering iron tree to rest, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress had suddenly emerged hastily from the dense towering forest.

    They were both glistening when they saw that Ji Yuan was still alive and quickly surrounding him.

    The two of them had seen the initial fight between Ji Yuan and the Destroyer and were shocked at how strong the Destroyer had been.

    As they panicky sped to aid Ji Yuan, he did not follow their initial n and had sped in another direction instead.

    The Lovely Empress almost fainted earlier as she gasped, "This Ji Yuan never follows any ns, exactly like Maiden Ling Feiyue had said¡­"

    It was not because Ji Yuan did not want to follow their initial ns but he did not want to lure a powerful enemy to them instead. And moreover, he was not giving up on his fight when he had fled.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had fled was because he needed to find a clearing in the dense towering forest to prepare for his Sacred Thousand Swords and to fight against Rey Pugpatine. With a low visibility and having the thick towering trees blocking him, it was more aid to Rey Pugpatine than for him.

    "Hurry! Let''s follow them!" Zhi Jiugong urged her.

    Along the way, they had stumbled upon the dead bodies of Ai Jueluo, Song Qingshu, Bai Qinghe, He Tiandong and Wu Yifan.

    As for Wang Gongzi, they did not spot him among the dead.

    Now to their delights, they had found finally found Ji Yuan!

    Ji Yuan was also delighted when he saw them and he grinned, "Haha. I am still alive."

    "Ji Yuan, you are¡­ alright?" There was a deep concern as Zhi Jiugong asked panicky and she started to check all over him.

    "Rascal Ji Yuan, you are¡­ well¡­" The Lovely Empress gasped and she was relieved at the same time.

    The two maidens were both tenderly helping him to stand straight.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan took the opportunity to stroke their backs and were even stroking them as he moved down their waists.

    But the two maidens had presumed that Ji Yuan had actually slipped his hands as he was still weak after they had seen the golden blood that he had spat on the ground and moreover, he was still trembling when they had found him.

    The Lovely Empress asked him tenderly, "Ji Yuan, you''ve killed the Destroyer? Just one Destroyer is so strong. What if we were to meet the other Destroyers?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I think you don''t have to worry about most of the Destroyers for now. It is because I have just killed 7 of them and have scored 35 Points from them. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were both shocked, "35 Points?! You have 35 Points already?!"

    Zhi Jiugong was perplexed as she asked gently, "We''ve seen your initial fight with the Destroyer and it looks really strong. Are you saying that you have killed 6 others?"

    Ji Yuanughed before exining, "Actually, I have killed 7 others, not including the initial Destroyer that I''ve fought. The initial Destroyer is actually far stronger than the other Destroyers and I didn''t kill it."

    "You didn''t?" The Lovely Empress asked with a weird expression.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said with an awkward look, "A silver dragon god beast kills it."

    "I don''t believe it¡­" The Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong said at almost the same time.

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "Why don''t you believe me?"

    The Lovely Empress frowned, "We are not kids. We didn''t see any silver dragon god beast along the way. And why are you alive anyway?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said as he himself found it hard to believe, "Yeah. Why am I still alive?"

    He was still feeling perplexed over the circumstances that had happened earlier as well.

    Zhi Jiugong said nonchntly and she was even smiling gently at him, "This is your secret. We shouldn''t have delved into it."

    Ji Yuan quickly smiled to her, "Maiden Jiugong is no outsider in my heart. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, Zhi Jiugong lowered her head with an apparent shyness.

    The truth was that, Ji Yuan already had a rtionship with Zhi Jiugong way back in he Demonic Divine Realm.

    The Lovely Empress weakly asked, "Then I am the outsider and that is why you don''t want to share now because of my presence?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Yea! I wonder why Maiden Lu Jiangsu is so smart today? This information is not free of charge. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    But Ji Yuan was soon looking tenderly at her, "Someone else killed the powerful Destroyer and has left. That''s why."

    Although this was a lie but the Lovely Empress was soon overwhelmed by the tenderness that she saw in his eyes and she was soon coyly holding tightly onto him...

    2. Edit thest chapter and added some more thoughts to Destiny, exining why she had aided Ji Yuan.

    3. If the readers remember, Destiny is from the Entropy Realm and she is also a divine ruler of the Chaos Race in the past there. Her true form is that of a silver dragon god beast.

    4. There is a hint that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is aware of her strength even though she appears to be weakened.

 Chapter 940 Lets Pick The Tokens

    ?

    As the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were checking Ji Yuan for his injuries, the Trial Spirit had suddenly announced. "All 9 of the Destroyers have now been eliminated¡­"

    The profound voice of the Trial spirit was now back to its usual non gender voice that was used for the first two trials instead of the past 3 trials.

    The Lovely Empress stared nkly at Ji Yuan, "You little rascal. You really did not lie? You have killed 7 of the Destroyers?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I did tell you, right? By the way, erm¡­ do you have any free of charge replenishing profound pill for me?"

    The Thousand Sacred Swords and the Million Swords Field had sapped arge amount of profound strength from Ji Yuan.

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "Do you miss me or do you miss my profound pills more?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "I miss your free of charge profound pills more¡­"

    Needless to say, he got a hard kick from the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    Even then, she had taken out 3rge iron replenishing profound pills for him. "Here! Hmph!"

    Zhi Jiugong had also taken out 3rge iron replenishing profound pills for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed as he hugged the two maidens rightly in his arms before he smiled to the Lovely Empress, "You know that I was only teasing you, right?"

    "Hmph! I don''t!" The Lovely Empress coldly said but while she appeared to be cold, she was leaning coyly in Ji Yuan''s arm.

    Ji Yuan muttered silently, "Women¡­"

    But he quickly chuckled softly as he said to them, "We should make a move away from this ce first. We don''t know if the other teams or other formidable profound beasts may be attracted to the noise here."

    Zhi Jiugong disyed a faint smile as she said gently, "I agree. Let''s move away from here first."

    The Lovely Empress was also smiling while nodding, "Right. I don''t want Ji Yuan to die in this ce anytime soon. He is so weak. I may just decide to abandon him in this ce if there are any threats. If he dies then I can''t find him to pay for my profound pills anymore."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to add in so many additional nasty words? And aren''t your profound pills free of charge?

    But he did not dare to say it loud.

    It was not because he was afraid of the Lovely Empress but because he knows that she was only teasing him.

    They had been through several life and death battles together, with thest one inside the Goddess Star Pce. At that time, she was fighting with her life for him against the terrifying guardians while he was idling and trying to find clues to the right portal for everyone to enter.

    While she was always saying to him that her profound pills were not free of charge but she had never charged him even once.

    Also, the most important thing that had touched him was that she had given up an opportunity to ascend as an immortal to be with him.

    The same goes to Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden as well.

    These three sisters have deep affections for him and Ji Yuan is not dumb to realize this.

    "Why are you so quiet, Ji Yuan? You don''t have anything to say to me?" The lovely smile that was on the Lovely Empress had vanished and a frown was reced in her lovely alluring face.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softy, "I want to say, I love the two of you. Haha¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    When he had said that, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were both startled and were both blushing.

    The Lovely Empress tried to urge but rather weakly, "Ji Yuan, you are too shameless! We are still in the middle of a trial!"

    Although she had scolded Ji Yuan but in her heart, she was secretly delighted.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly as he held them even more tightly, "Haha¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong asked gently, "Ji Yuan, so what''s the new n now? It seems that the cultivators in our old team are mostly dead now. Except for Wang Gongzi, we spotted their dead bodies when we areing for you."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled as he weakly said, "They are mostly dead? I didn''t think that with 3 great saints, they are so weak."

    "I am surprised too," Zhi Jiugong was forced to admit. "This is a little too strange, don''t you think? And how did you kill that formidable Destroyer in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to exin that it was due to the silver dragon god beast anymore since he himself had also found it to be difficult to exin.

    So he said, "Yeah. It took me a little luck to kill this one Destroyer too. But luckily for me, I am stronger. Haha¡­"

    He had also given up on exining that the Destroyer was also able to talk to him and an unknown spirit entity that called herself the name of Rey Pugpatine the Woke Empress had tried to kill him by taking over the Destroyer that was in the trial.

    Seriously, he did not remember ever offending this Rey Pugpatine in the Spiritas Tower at all¡­

    Maybe because he is too beautiful in his looks than this Rey Pugpatine?

    Haha, this is the least likely reason.

    Ji Yuan quickly dropped this deduction.

    But at the same time, he was saying to the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong. "Our new n is to go back to where the dead bodies of the cultivators are first."

    The Lovely Empress asked curiously, "What for?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Naturally, it is to retrieve the tokens that are left behind."

    The Lovely Empress said with a puzzled look, "Ah?! We don''t get any points from obtaining the same team tokens, you know."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Although we can''t obtain any points from the same team tokens but the others can."

    The golden eyes of the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong shone with understanding all of a sudden as they realized what Ji Yuan''s ns were now.

    Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress quickly backtracked to where the 5 dead bodies werest seen and retrieved a total of 5 tokens; the dead cultivators and their items had long been taken and were absorbed by the Spiritas Tower.

    However since their objective was the tokens so it did not matter to them and as a rule, Ji Yuan would avoid looting spatial rings and belts of the newly dead as a mark of respect.

    As for the dead Qin Gang, they did not go back to retrieve his token as they were cautious of what the spirit nt that had killed him would actually do.

 Chapter 941 It Is Really My Feiyue!

    ?

    It was now Day 2 of the Fifth Trial.

    A team of 9 cultivators were moving toward the center of the ind where arge mountain could be seen rising above the imposing towering iron trees that surrounded them.

    The widths of these iron trees were thicker than 10m and even the heights of these iron trees could easily reach a towering 100m.

    Also, gigantic ferns and dense vegetationof all kinds were also all around them, making their trek difficult and the team was moving quite cautiously.

    One could easily imagine the size of this ind.

    Usually, a team would have 11 cultivators.

    The reason why they had only 9 cultivators now was that 2 had been killed by a Destroyer that had suddenly ambushed them before it got killed by the team.

    As they moved through the forest, all of a sudden Ji Yuan had popped in front of them with a big grin as he said to them, "Hello fellow cultivators!"

    The reason why he had not been tracked by the divine sense of this team was because he had shed immediately within their divine sense from afar and by the time they saw him, their divine sense had also sensed him.

    He was quickly followed by the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

    The team leader of this team was Great Saint Jing Taizhong and when he saw Ji Yuan, he had immediately unsheathed his divine sword to shout angrily. "Are you courting your death bying with only 3 cultivators?!"

    Ji Yuan however continued to grin with great delight because he had spotted Ling Feiyue in the team!

    She is actually not dead!

    He was so delighted that he almost charged forward to hug her if not for the menacing swords that were pointing at him.

    Ling Feiyue was startled as she stared with shock, "Ji Yuan? What are you doing here?"

    It was not only Ling Feiyue who was in this team that was acquainted with Ji Yuan. There were Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu and Heng Wujian too.

    Ji Yuan remembered Heng Wujian whom he had met during the third trial and he also remembered that he was trying to impress his Divine Consort Fu Rong.

    Heng Wujian was surprised to see that Ji Yuan was still alive after he had told him to run while he stalled the Hunter Snow ck for him.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, you are still alive?!"

    Even Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were gasping that they would be seeing Ji Yuan again so soon. However, they were also startled to see him because they were in opposing teams.

    The question was, would they fight?

    But Ji Yuan continued to look with great delight at the flustered Ling Feiyue as heughed softly, "Feiyue, I''ve thought that I can no longer see you again!"

    He was interrupted by Great Saint Jing Taizhong who was frowning, "I know you. You must be that Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan and the newly appointed Divine Lord Ji Yuan. I am Great Saint Jing Taizhong. You must be courting your own death bying here!"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly to Ji Yuan, "Maiden Yunzi has told me that you are alive. But are you sure that you are able to defeat us by¡­"

    She had stepped forward enchantingly as she waved her heaven-step sword before continuing, "By confronting us like this? Hehe¡­"

    She had only taken out her heaven-step divine sword instead of the emperor-step divine sword that Ji Yuan had given to her.

    At the same time, she had also winked to the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong who were behind Ji Yuan.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong felt a little weird because this Ji Yuan and Maiden Ling Feiyue were just talking to each other and he was like talking to the air.

    But he had to admit that the two maidens behind this Ji Yuan were really astonishing beauties, especially the maiden with the loveliest smiles that he had ever seen.

    He felt a pity that he had to ughter such a lovely maiden for his 3 Points.

    Ji Yuan answered Ling Feiyue, "Feiyue, I miss you. Haha! Are you delighted to see me as well?"

    Anyang was giggling too inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: I''m missing Maiden Feiyue too!

    Ling Feiyueughed softly, "You miss me? I can see that you have two greatpany with you. Do you even need me with you? Hehe¡­"

    She added with a wry smile, "I have 5 Points from killing a Destroyer now. Now you have delivered yourself to me for another 4 Points. Of course, I am delighted to see you."

    Ji Yuanughed as he tossed 5 tokens to her, "Here is an extra point for you. Now you have 10 points. Haha¡­"

    He had given Ling Feiyue all the tokens that he had found earlier.

    Ling Feiyue gasped softly, "You have 5 tokens with you? Did you kill them as well?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ji Yuan shook his head with a grin, "Of course not. I won''t kill any cultivator unless they are courting their own death by attacking me. I''ve actually found these tokens¡­"

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong interrupted by shouting angrily, "Are you deaf? Do you think that the rest of us are dead? Draw your sword and I shall grant you an honorable death! Everyone go and get him¡­"

    Ling Feiyue interrupted him, "Ji Yuan is my lord consort. Do you think that I will attack him?"

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong looked startled, "You are with him?"

    He had seen the battle ability of this enchanting heavenly Ling Feiyue and she was not a cultivator that he would want to risk offending. And he was d that she was in his team.

    Ling Feiyue had suddenly giggled softly as she danced over to Ji Yuan before she gave everyone a yful wink, "My lord consort is here. Therefore, I must join him. So, if anyone wants to attack him, I will surely fight alongside with him."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he looked with great delight at Ling Feiyue, "I am waiting for my Feiyue to say just that. Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress was smiling with great loveliness to Ling Feiyue, "Sister Feiyue, wee to the team!"

    Zhi Jiugong was also smiling as she nodded lightly to Ling Feiyue.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong and many of the cultivators were startled at this sudden change.

    8 vs. 4.

    The battle was still in favor of his team.

    That was what Great Saint Jing Taizhong was thinking when Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu had suddenly walked over to Ji Yuan''s side.

    Hua Yunzi smiled, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, we have met again."

    Ji Yuan was actually also delighted to see Hua Yunzi after their departure, "Maiden Yunzi, thank you¡­"

    "Great Saint Ji Yuan, I am willing to fight on your side too." Xie Hongyu quietly looked at him and she looked a little flustered.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong was stunned and so were many of the cultivators in his team.

    It was now 6 vs. 6!

    All of a sudden, Heng Wujian was now bowing with his hands to Ji Yuan. "Brother Ji Yuan, although we are from different teams now but I won''t fight you. You may go if you do not have the intention to attack us."

    This shocked Great Saint Jing Taizhong as he stared at Heng Wujian as Heng Wujian was also a powerful cultivator in their team. "Not you too?!"

    There were 3 cultivators in his team that were not great saints and this time Jing Taizhong was a little worried as he did not know how strong this Ji Yuan and his team were.

    Ji Yuan politely bowed with his hands to Heng Wujian, "Brother Wujian, we have met again! Sorry, I got distracted by talking with my Consort Feiyue. Haha¡­"

    Then he grinned, "Indeed, I have no intention of attacking your team. And I am sure that you don''t want to fight, am I right?"

    He was actually throwing this question to Great Saint Jing Taizhong.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong was smiling weakly, "Actually, I am just sending Brother Ji Yuan a warning as I didn''t know if you are a hostile or not. Now that I know that you are a friendly cultivator, of course I have no intentions of attacking you or your team¡­"

    Then he looked at Ling Feiyue, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi with a hopeful look. "May the three of youe back to the team now?"

    But to his utter surprise and to the others, Ling Feiyue together with Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi said after one another. "We are joining Ji Yuan''s team."

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong was shocked with disbelief, "But this won''t be your designated team and you won''t be safe. He may ughter you for the trial points. Even if he is honorable, what about the rest of his team then?"

    Hua Yunzi took a look at Ji Yuan before she looked at the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong, "I trust him and his friends as well."

    Xie Hongyu was also quietly looking at Ji Yuan before she said shyly, "I have full faith in Great Saint Ji Yuan and his friends too."

    Ling Feiyue did not say anything because at this moment, she was just looking back at Ji Yuan who was looking at her with great delight.

    Nothing could describe Ji Yuan''s joyous heart when he had discovered that Ling Feiyue was still alive; he had been quite heartbrokentely when he had supposedly that Ling Feiyue and his Senior Sister Chu Lixue had both perished in the Spiritas Tower.

 Chapter 942 We Are A New Team Now

    ?

    Ji Yuan had naturally departed without any troubles from Great Saint Jing Taizhong even though the different teams were supposed to fight each other for the trial points.

    However Great Saint Jing Taizhong did not have the courage to fight against Ji Yuan and his team.

    In fact, when Ji Yuan had left, Great Saint Jing Taizhong looked a little relieved; even though he had no idea how strong this Ji Yuan was but there was an intense aura around him that terrified him. And he trusted his gut instinct not to offend this Ji Yuan.

    For this Ji Yuan to appear so casually in front of all his team with just 2 other cultivators, he was either too bold of his strength or he was a foolish cultivator.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong did not think that Ji Yuan was a foolish cultivator.

    That was also the reason why he had used words instead of attacking him immediately.

    When Ji Yuan was alone with Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu, he did not care that he was in the presence of Hua Yunzi, Xie Hongyu or the others and he had lifted Ling Feiyue up by hugging her tightly.

    "Feiyue! Haha! Do you know how happy I am when I know that you are alive?" Ji Yuanughed jovially and without any shame.

    He did not care if he was in the trial or not, or if he was being watched through the battle imagery by hundreds of thousands.

    Nothing could describe Ji Yuan''s joyous heart now; if the others were not here, he would have kissed Ling Feiyue passionately and even banged her on the spot!

    Ling Feiyue had been in hispany for so long that he was totally heart broken that she was ''no longer'' around anymore.

    The other maidens were all smiling weakly as they watched them; it seemed that Ji Yuan was only interested to look at Ling Feiyue for now and his golden eyes had never left her since they had departed.

    He had been waiting for so long to release his emotions.

    Ling Feiyue had a bewildered look on her before sheughed softly, "What? Don''t tell me that you''ve thought that I have¡­ died in the trial?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This trial is too crazy and it is the hardest trial that I''ve ever experienced. I don''t expect for you or Xiao Muhan to be alive."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "This trial, is hard?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He bitterly said, "Of course it is hard. I''ve almost died several times in this trial. Also, thest trial has fake Dao Fruits on the third level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris. How the heck did you manage to ovee the temptation of plucking the Dao Fruits anyway?"

    This trial alone on the third level was enough to kill even the most powerful cultivators should they ever touch even the Dao Fruit!

    Ling Feiyue answered weakly, "I was unlucky with casting my lot in my team. So I didn''t be a victim. I was actually quite sad that I didn''t obtain the Dao Fruit."

    Then she was smiling again, "Lucky me! Hehe¡­ after that, I didn''t dare to pluck any of the Dao Fruits anymore when the cultivator that plucked the Dao Fruit has lost his hands."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Lucky you indeed. Or I would have lost you."

    But he was suddenly sighing again, "Unfortunately, I think that my Brother Xiao Muhan and my Senior Sister Chu Lixue are both one with the heavens now¡­"

    When he had said that, there was an inexplicit sorrow in his golden eyes.

    There were also bitterness and sorrowful look from the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong as they softly said together, "Senior Sister Lixue will be alright¡­"

    The Lovely Empress said bitterly and her golden eyes were glistening, "My senior sister is always apanied by the luck of the heavens¡­ so she will be alright¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to look at her before saying bitterly interrupted her with a heart-rending tremble, "Her luck is too awesome when she was casting for her lucky lot for the Dao Fruit and this costs her life instead¡­"

    Ling Feiyue kicked Ji Yuan hard as she interrupted him before saying firmly, "Maiden Chu Lixue will be alright. And so will your Brother Xiao Muhan. Alright?"

    Ji Yuan simply shook his head at this low possibility

    But he turned slowly to look at Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu one by one before he said firmly. "This trial is too perverted hard. Therefore, I don''t want to kill any cultivators in my team unless we have no other choices. There have been too many deathstely. We are mostly celestials here and we have no feuds with one another. It doesn''t matter if we lose in the trial but at the very least, we are able to maintain our dignity. Do you all agree with me?"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu; all 5 of the maidens were all nodding firmly together in affirmative as they resounded with Ji Yuan''s suggestion.

    Ji Yuan nodded before he said loudly, "Then, so shall it be. We are a new team now."

    The Lovely Empress asked him, "So, what is our new n now?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder before he said, "We should go and look for Maiden Shui Xisi first."

    As he said that, he was secretly looking at Hua Yunzi¡­

    Hua Yunzi saw his nce and she quickly looked away awkwardly, not daring to look at him.

    Ji Yuan sighed deeply: Maiden Yunzi had given her life to save mine back in the Demonic Divine Realm and I had made a pledge to her to be my consort at the time because I believed that she had passed away¡­

    At that time, Hua Yunzi was all mangled and it was improbable that she would survive as the extent of her injuries were extremely severe.

    Imagine his shock when he saw that she would twist her body to the original state.

    This was all due to a special profound skill that Hua Yunzi had practiced.

    Ji Yuan took a curious look at Xie Hongyu before asking curiously, "Maiden Hongyu, I wonder why you have decided to join our team?"

    Xie Hongyu was startled that Ji Yuan had suddenly asked her this question.

    She flushed shyly before saying, "We¡­ we have taken thest trial together. Also, I have also known Maiden Hua Yunzi here. And I also have trust in your leadership. So this is the reason why I have decided to join your team."

    "I see."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he absently mindedly walked away to lead the team forward.

    When he walked away, Xie Hongyu continued to look at his back¡­

    To Xie Hongyu, this Ji Yuan was a mystery to her and also a giant. And this aroused her interest in him.

    This was not lost on Ling Feiyue, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and Hua Yunzi; they could all see that this Maiden Xie Hongyu was a little infatuated with Ji Yuan.

    The only person that could not see it was Ji Yuan himself as he had no mood to notice it.

    -

    -

    -

    In the Divine City of the Snowy Pavilion City, the divine consorts had noticed that Destiny had been closing her eyes since yesterday and they were wondering why; it was because they had noticed that Destiny had been looking at the battle imagery where Ji Yuan was since the beginning of the trials in the Spiritas Tower but not now anymore.

    The truth was that Destiny was injured and she had to enter a short slumber; she had retaliated against Ji Yuan unwittingly due to her innate reflexes when she was being attacked by his Ultimate Grand Cross.

    Although his profound attack could not injure her, her own retaliation against her own ''master'' had caused her to experience 7 times the bacsh.

    This was actually due to the spirit cor that was anchored forcefully on her neck and it would only disappear if she reveals fully to Ji Yuan about her background.

    Luckily for her, Ji Yuan''s injuries were not heavy and she had also merely retaliated unwittingly. Therefore she did not experience any severe bacsh for this unwittingly act.

 Chapter 943 Day 3 Of The Fifth Trial

    ?

    It was now Day 3 of the Fifth Trial.

    The colosseums throughout the 12 city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad were all fully packed.

    Most of the spectators or rather the female spiritas were all here to look at their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan.

    Throughout the Great Games or Trials of the Spiritas Tower, they were witnessing one miracle heroics after one another by their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, their new Divine Lord Ji Yuan and now, Ji Yuan also had a new title of the Warrior-God.

    They were all astonished at how Ji Yuan managed to survive one trial after another and it was obvious to them that the Trial seemed to be against Ji Yuan.

    Many of them had discorded emotions as they cursed the trials for being unfairly toward Ji Yuan and they were wept by the heroics of Ji Yuan after he had ovee the trials one by one.

    Ji Yuan did not know that his name was being chanted by the hundreds of thousands in the colosseums and even all the divine consorts were all watching his heroics, barely battling an eyelid as they did not want to miss any of his heroics.

    Everyone could see that by now that Ji Yuan had many maidens in the trial that were interested in him. Instead of branding him as a lecherous or a depraved cultivator, none of the female spiritas seemed to mind and in fact, this created an adtion for him even more!

    To them, it was natural for a Great Hero like Ji Yuan to be surrounded by so many maidens and that included them, of course. Moreover, did the Goddess Ai Tina not say that Ji Yuan is now their Divine Lord and he is allowed to have his harem, including from the divine consorts?

    Harems are not banned in the 12 city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad so themon people did not care much for it but it was banned for the female noble spiritas. The only exception now is Ji Yuan.

    This caused all the divine consorts to feel that they have a chance to be with the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan even though they all know that he is a celestial and will one day leave them.

    Right now, Ji Yuan is like their king; even if he asks them all to strip for him to bang them, they will all be willing!

    The Day 1 of the fifth trial saw Ji Yuan fighting against unbelievable strong Destroyer that incited the crowd in the Colosseums and the Divine Temples to great anger; it was obvious to them that this Destroyer was so much stronger and had almost killed Ji Yuan if not for the timely appearance of a silver dragon god beast.

    Since then, the Silver Dragon God Beast had not appeared anymore and everyone was bewildered why was there such a powerful god beast in the trial?

    This Silver Dragon God Beast did not seem to be on Ji Yuan''s side since they saw Ji Yuan trying to attack it and he was also mmed to one side by it.

    But after that, it had suddenly disappeared without hurting Ji Yuan further.

    They could see that Ji Yuan had a perplexed look as he looked around the clearing of the towering iron trees for it but it had simply vanished from the thin air.

    It had literally vanished from the thin air after killing the powerful Destroyer that was trying to kill Ji Yuan.

    How could it be?

    Then, there was a rumor that the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan actually received the blessings of the Silver Dragon God beast and he was only performing a ritual.

    This rumor had quickly taken root in the hearts of many of the spectators!

    Of course, the White Sword Monarch which was Ji Yuan''s old master who was in the colosseum with a beautiful spiritas maiden all this while was shaking his head with great disbelief this entire time as he heard all kinds of rumors and heroics about Ji Yuan.

    He could only curse, "This Ji Yuan is only a rascal, you know? He is only thinking of banging the maidens all the time. I bet that he has already banged all the divine consorts in his city-state. His trial here is too smooth¡­ he must have 100 Trust Points due to his beautiful looks¡­ nowadays, are looks really so important¡­"

    Although he had said so, but he was actually being sarcastic. He was truly impressed by Ji Yuan''s fighting skills in his heart, especially the fight that he had in the trial with the Hunter Snow ck and he did not want to disy it openly. <novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    But he was also frowning weirdly to himself: How the heck can he survive 81 purple lightning tribtion? Did he have a rare profound treasure or something?

    And he even saw Shui Xisi forcing down a Dao Fruit on him that almost killed his precious core prot¨¦g¨¦.

    He was actually exploding at that point until he realized that Ji Yuan was actually unharmed.

    Then he was thinking, "This Maiden Shui Xisi, I wonder what her background is¡­"

    If Ji Yuan was here and heard that his old man was thinking that he had banged all the divine consorts in his city-state, he would faint immediately; it was because he did not bang any of the divine consorts in his city-state at all.

    Also, he had plenty of difficulties when he had first stepped into Snowy Pavilion City and at one point, his Trust Points with the divine consorts were even at a high negative value.

    The spectators in the meantime were able to see that in Day 2 of the Trial, Ji Yuan had met another team and had met some old friends.

    He did not attack this team and had actually left quite peacefully with 3 others.

    Together, they had even formed a new team of 6.

    Thise as a surprise to all of them because Ji Yuan was leading two separate teams that could ughter each other for the trial points.

    Why did he do that for?

    But they saw that he had a close rtionship with the Maiden Ling Feiyue as he was hugging her tightly so it should not be a problem since Ji Yuan was not breaking any rules.

    As for Maiden Hua Yunzi and Maiden Xie Hongyu, they were actually with Ji Yuan in thest trial so they guessed that they were also awed by the heroics of Ji Yuan and that was why they were willing to join his team instead.

    As a rule, the battle imageries actually disyed no sounds or transmissions. So they could only guess what was going on.

    Between the Day 2 and Day 3 of the Trial, Ji Yuan''s team actually met a few formidable profound beasts but these were quickly dealt with by their team.

    Strangely, the other 4 teams were all moving cautiously as well and there were no battles between the teams so far.

    The other 4 teams had met with other dangers such as the dangerous profound beasts in the forest or dangerous spirit nts which caused some of them to be killed or wounded.

    However, all 4 of the teams including Ji Yuan''s team were all moving toward the center of the ind.

    All the spectators were interested to know how the 5 teams would begin their confrontations since this was the Hungry Games and there were no more points to be gained from the 9 Destroyers anymore.

    The top scorers so far, was Ji Yuan with 35 Points and Ling Feiyue with 10 Points.

 Chapter 944 Ji Yuan, Your Secret Plan Is Dumb!

    ?

    Although the appearance of the Silver Dragon God Beast shocked all the spectators, including the immortals from the Greater Spirit Realm, there was one immortal goddess in one of the city-state''s colosseums that recognized where the Silver Dragon God Beast hade from.

    She was Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess.

    It was because in the past, she had seen her.

    She thought with a gasp, "This old witch is still around?!"

    Her soft gasps startled Little Princess who was next to her, "What is it?"

    Bai Qianfeng did not answer her and instead she took a closer look at Ji Yuan and saw that he had a skull ring that was on him.

    Normally she would not notice such things but she had remembered that the Goddess Destiny also had such a skull ring in the past.

    So she quickly concluded that the Goddess Destiny must have used this skull ring to make her appearance.

    But she was soon perplexed because this Goddess Destiny from the Entropy Realm was a lofty immortal goddess that was said to be one of the first of the great immortals to be very close to the True Divinity 10th immortal realm and she should not be here in this ce.

    After all, this was the Spirit Divine Realm and also a lower heaven realm than the Entropy Immortal Realm.

    In the past, she had been an envoy to the Entropy Realm to secure the aid of the Goddess Destiny and her god beasts to help the war cause of the Deste Immortals against the Pangu Immortals. But the Goddess Destiny was too haughty and turned down their requests tly.

    Since the Goddess Destiny had turned down their request, the other Chaos Sovereigns naturally did not dare to oppose the will of their Chaos Empress Sovereign.

    She could still remember her haughty words to this day.

    "Do you think that this Chaos Empress is so free to be involved in a war between the two immortal realms? Surely the Deste Immortal Realm has nock of powerful immortals against the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm. You want me to fight against the Great God Pangu who is a True Divinity while you fish for advantages while we are killing each other. Then, you can also take over my Entropy Realm? What a wishful thinking! Now go!"

    But weirdly enough, the Goddess Destiny had disappeared shortly and her Entropy Realm was soon in a chaotic state.

    No one knows where the former Chaos Empress Sovereign had disappeared to and many presumed that she was dead as they could not even find her profound signatures.

    That was why Bai Qianfeng was quite shocked to see her today.

    She quickly concluded that the skull ring was a pocket world that the Goddess Destiny used as a means for her to travel to where Ji Yuan was, either from the skull ring or from other ces.

    If so then this skull ring would be a most valuable true divinity profound treasure!

    But still, she waspleted bewildered how Ji Yuan could have messed up with the Goddess Destiny that could crush him like an ant in her god beast form.

    Did they have a special arrangement of some sort?

    From the look of it, Ji Yuan should be safe for now but wearing the skull ring of the Goddess Destiny was like a ticking time bomb for him.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan and his team had reached the middle of the ind and they were now at the mountainous slope where the emperor stone was.

    The Lovely Empress looked curiously at Ji Yuan, "So this is our n? To wait for the rest of the other teams and to¡­ ambush them?"

    "Isn''t this that Ai Jueluo''s n?" Zhi Jiugong weakly asked.

    Xie Hongyu, Hua Yunzi and Ling Feiyue also had a perplexed look on them.

    "Of course not!"

    Ji Yuan protested strongly, "Actually my n is a secret and I cannot share with anyone of you."

    The Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Ling Feiyue, Xie Hongyu, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue warned him unpleasantly, "You have better coughed out your n or you will get something from me."

    Ji Yuan innocently asked, "Your body, right?"

    Ling Feiyue immediately raised her heaven-step divine sword to point at his neck, "Shameless Ji Yuan. You have better tell us your stupid n."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "My n isn''t stupid. Also, you already know my n. It is just that the others did not know my n."

    Ling Feiyue hummed coldly, "I don''t know your n at all."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "You do. It is just that you''ve forgotten about it."

    Ling Feiyue gave Ji Yuan a kick, "I don''t remember and if I don''t hear from your n, you are going to get it from me at a count of 3."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "My Feiyue, are you finally upset with me? Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue smiled as she winked at him, "I am not angry with you. Don''t worry. I won''t kill my Lord Consort but I will slice your flesh one by one until you have no more blood in you."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I rather prefer a clean death¡­"

    Ling Feiyue had shed her divine sword on his neck. "Spill it out."

    "Wait!" The Lovely Empress was suddenly giggling as she took out her divine sword as well. "I want to slice him as well."

    Ji Yuan turned ashen immediately; he was a little afraid of this Lovely Empress.

    So he quickly shouted loudly, "Wait, wait! I say. But¡­ this is a secret n of mine, you know and it is not convenient for me to say it¡­"

    "Spill it out." Ling Feiyue shed her divine sword on his neck, "Or you will be begging me to kill you soon. Are we not a team? Howe you dare not tell us your n?"

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly before he weakly said, "Erm, I am waiting for my Qianfeng. Maybe we can find Qianfeng from among the teams."

    Ling Feiyue almost fainted on the spot, "Your secret n is to wait for Qianfeng?! Are you thinking of persuading her to join our team? I did tell you that she may not be in the Spiritas Tower as a champion, right?"

    "Not really¡­" Ji Yuan weakly said. "My n is simple enough. I am going to fake my own death with her help."

    Ling Feiyue almost fainted on the spot, "Ji Yuan!!! Are you still thinking of asking her to make an avatar doll for you?!"

    Even the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were looking quite startled.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Why not? My death can solve a lot of problems for me. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue weakly said, "First of all, she may not be in this trial as a champion at all. Secondly, have it ever urred to you that you can''t make an avatar doll and fake your own death because everyone can see what the two of you are doing."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as though he had just received a tight p on his face. Very slowly, he weakly said. "I forget. Hahaha¡­"

    Then he quickly pointed out with a grin, "Maybe my Qianfeng has a way? You''ll never know. Or maybe the whole lot of you can help me to fake my death? After all, we have so many brains working together. The word ''impossible'' simply does not exist in our dictionary!"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue chuckled softly, "However I do have a n for you that can help you to solve your problems. Do you want to hear?"

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "I know that I can trust my Feiyue. In the future, I will just let you know my ns in the future. Haha¡­ so what is the n?"

    "I can kill you myself then you will really be dead." Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Then your problem will be solved."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu were all giggling softly when they had heard Ling Feiyue.

 Chapter 945 This Is My New Plan!

    ?

    A team of 10 cultivators had quickly emerged from the forest and they were startled to spot Ji Yuan and his team of 6.

    Ji Yuan and his team were actually waiting for the other teams to arrive from the other parts of the ind.

    The leader of the team of 10 cultivators was Great Saint Guo Dejing and he was smiling; they had 11 cultivators in their team and this was a team of 6.

    There was actually one more cultivator that was still emerging from the forest so their team was 11 and not 10.

    Ji Yuan was also grinning when he saw this team and he had recognized Yang Batian in the team.

    Yang Batian and Beitang Hai were also startled to see Ji Yuan and moreover he was with 5 astonishing beautiful maidens.

    Their team had 10 men and 1 maiden. Right now, the maiden in their team was still inside the forest but would soon be joining them.

    Great Saint Guo Dejing looked with great disdain at Ji Yuan, "Hehe. I am Great Saint Guo Dejing. I know you when you are still in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    This Ji Yuan was the only threat since he was a male.

    As for the 5 other maidens, they were not considered to be a threat to him since the maidens were usually weaker than the men.

    "You have an option now. Surrender your tokens to us and pay us 10 million spirit stones for each one of you or you have to fight us."

    Great Saint Guo Dejing had put forth his proposal for Ji Yuan and his small team.

    Yang Batian shouted over to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, we have met again. I suggest that you pay us a small price instead of regretting itter. We don''t want to kill any cultivators in this final trial."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "So it is Old Brother Yang Baitian here. We also don''t want to kill anyone. But if you are willing to leave behind your tokens to us then I will be willing to let you pass. Haha¡­"

    "This stupid familiar voice. It must be that Rascal Ji Yuan¡­" An alluring voice had suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had emerged from the forest with a soft chuckle.

    "Sisi!" Ji Yuan was surprised to see Shui Xisi was in this team. "Haha Sisi, it is really you."

    Great Saint Guo Dejing respectfully turned to say to her, "Great Saintess Xisi, this arrogant cultivator tries to force us to surrender our tokens to him."

    In the past 3 days, Shui Xisi had quickly emerged as the strongest cultivator in their team as she yed one powerful profound monster after another.

    When she had emerged with her beautiful presence, some of the maidens in Ji Yuan''s team like Ling Feiyue and the Lovely Empress were also giggling softly.

    Ji Yuan grinned at Shui Xisi, "Sisi,e and join my team. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Do you think that this great saintess will do so just because you have asked me to do so? Don''t forget that we are in a trial here and I can demolish you with a wave of my fingers."

    Ji Yuan''s grins disappeared and he was frowning, "Then what do you want?"

    Shui Xisiughed as she danced over to his side and before long, she had suddenly given his legs a hard kick, "Look at your silly disappointed look. I am only teasing you. Sure, I will join your team."

    Ji Yuan was suddenlyughing jovially, "Sisi, I nearly got a heart attack from you."

    Great Saint Guo Dejing was now frowning along with many of the cultivators in his team.

    "Great Saintess Xisi, are you going to betray your team just like this? Don''t forget that you are a different team from this Ji Yuan. He can turn upon you anytime by ughtering you for the Trial Points."

    Shui Xisi turned to stare yfully at Ji Yuan, "He dares?"

    Ji Yuan bitterlyughed, "Indeed, I dare not. In fact, I am going to invite you to be the team leader instead. Haha¡­"<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>

    Shui Xisi turned her yful smile into a jovial chuckle, "Rascal Ji Yuan, why are you so smart today?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled as she shed to Shui Xisi to give her a hug while the Lovely Empress was smiling lovingly while winking at Shui Xisi.

    Even Zhi Jiugong was walking to greet Shui Xisi with a pleasant smile.

    For the past tens of days, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were actually with the same Divine Consort Atnta and they had be quite close, especially when ites to making Ji Yuan pay a price for his flirtatious ways for example, by castrating him.

    As for Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi, they were both greeting her, "Maiden Xisi, we have met again¡­"

    The two of them were with Shui Xisi in theirst trial and they were d that she was now on their side.

    The scene stunned Great Saint Guo Dejing, Yang Batian and all the others.

    But still they had an advantage.

    After all they were 10 vs. 7.

    Ji Yuan turned to grin at Great Saint Guo Dejing, "It is impossible for us to surrender our tokens to you but I don''t mind if you are willing to surrender your tokens to me. If you do, I can promise to protect you while your team cultivates in this ce. No one will be able to mess or touch your team while you are here."

    Great Saint Guo Dejing roared with jovialughter, "I may not be the strongest cultivator in my team but we have several extreme cultivators in my team that can burst your bubbles¡­"

    As he said so, he was looking at Old Yang Batian and several others. "In the end, there will be some losses from my side but your team will be wiped outpletely¡­"

    Then he looked at the extremely beautiful maidens that were Ji Yuan, "Can these maidens fight as well as you? Don''t forget that you are only one while we are many¡­"

    Zhi Jiugong interrupted unpleasantly with her concise musical voice, "Are you trying to court your own death by trying to fight us?"

    When she had said that, Great Saint Guo Dejing and many of the cultivators wereughing jovially at her threat.

    Ji Yuan however had turned to grin at Shui Xisi with a grin, "Team Leader Sisi, shouldn''t you say a word or do something? Or do you expect for me to erm¡­ draw my swords?"

    Shui Xisiughed as she ticked her fingers to summon Augustina her Phoenix God Beast.

    A gigantic ming firebird had suddenly appeared from within Shui Xisi and was spreading her ming wings over the two teams.

    The intense pressure and fear of this 9th rank epic god beast immediately awed all the cultivators presented.

    Great Saint Guo Dejing was suddenly shaking with fear as he stammered, "We¡­ we are willing to¡­ surrender our tokens and be taken in under your protection¡­"

    Yang Batian and many of the cultivators from Great Saint Guo Dejing''s team had all broken in cold sweats and were now eagerly saying the same thing as well.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Why don''t you say so earlier?"

    As she said so, she was winking to Ji Yuan as though she was saying: You need me, right?

    Ji Yuan grinned back at her and he was thinking: Sisi, when can I bang you?

 Chapter 946 Day 4-5 Of The Fifth Trial

    ?

    Day 4 of the Trial.

    Another team of 9 had approached the center of the ind now and their objective was the other teams to obtain their tokens and to kill them.

    They had since lost 2 of their cultivators.

    As soon as they emerged from the forest, they saw Ji Yuan and his team.

    But before they could ready their battle cry, they were stunned; it was because they saw a total of 16 cultivators camping along the slopes of the mountains.

    There was even a 9th rank epic phoenix god beast that was ying with on the dark shades of the mountain, conveniently staying away from their divine senses.

    9 vs. 16 were insane¡­

    Plus one 9th rank epic phoenix god beast.

    Ji Yuan grinned to them, "Surrender your tokens to me and I shall protect you from the menace of the other teams until the end of the trial. Or else, you can all die in this ce immediately."

    This was just a threat as Ji Yuan did not have the intention of killing them.

    Needless to say, the new team of 9 cultivators surrendered immediately after they had secure Ji Yuan''s oath in not ughtering their team.

    They just perplexed why there were 16 cultivators in this ce instead of 11?

    But they soon found out that there was actually another team in this ce that was in a simr situation as them.

    They did not know whether tough or cry.

    Soon, another team of 8 cultivators had arrived at the scene as well. This team had lost 3 cultivators to the treacherous profound beasts and the dangerous spirit nts in the vicinity.

    Many of them were even wounded.

    Like the previous team, the first cultivator that greeted them was Ji Yuan and they were shocked to see that there were 25 cultivators in this ce and there was even a 9th rank epic phoenix god beast; this caused them to bepletely stunned.

    Among them was Beitang Hai and he had recognized Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan?! Are you going to ughter us all?"

    8 vs. 25 were insane¡­

    Plus one 9th rank epic phoenix god beast.

    Like the previous team, Ji Yuan had offered them the same option and they too, surrendered their tokens to Ji Yuan.

    Now Ji Yuan had a total of 27 extra tokens.

    Other than the two encounters with the opposing teams, Day 4 actually passed quite peacefully for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan checked the opposing teams if they had seen the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue or Bai Qianfeng and he was disappointed that they had not seen them.

    His Senior Sister Chu Lixue was probably gone now¡­

    Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress did not take this too well; they were quiet for the entire day.

    As for his Qianfeng, she was probably uninterested to be a champion of a divine consort as she held herself quite haughty.

    So his n of faking his ''death'' was doomed to fail from the start.

    There were actually 2 other teams that were still inside the forest but they dared not approach the center of the ind.

    One was actually Wang Gongzi from Ji Yuan''s original team and he was the solo survivor.

    Since he was alone, he had naturally decided to find a safe spot and wait out the entire 5 days of trial instead since he did not want to die or have any mishaps.

    As for the other team, it was actually the team that Ling Feiyue, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi had originated; it was led by Great Saint Jing Taizhong, Heng Wujian and 4 other cultivators.

    Great Saint Jing Taizhong and his team had decided to retreat to the outskirt of the ind instead. Instead of attempting to obtain their trial points, they had decided to find their fortuitous encounters in this ce, far away from the other powerful cultivators.

    To them, this sounded like a feasible option.

    On Day 5, it was also quite peaceful for Ji Yuan and his team; he spent most of the time chatting with the maidens and once again Ling Feiyue was filling them with gossips of their time here.

    The maidens were interested to know Ji Yuan''s experience and how he had actually be the Great Spiritas Hero in this ce.

    So Ji Yuan exined to them, "I was walking peacefully in the streets when a man called out to me in a most arrogant manner and issued me an ultimatum to be his male harlot or die. At that time, I didn''t know that he was the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong. Naturally I didn''t agree with it and we fought¡­"

    But before he could finish, all the maidens interrupted him.

    "Lies!"

    "I never heard of such a ridiculous request!"

    "Ji Yuan, can you tell a better story?"

    "When will you ever learn to speak the truth?"

    "Do you know that lying will affect your breakthroughs and ascension in the future?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I didn''t lie, you know."

    But Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Xie Hongyu and Hua Yunzi were all giggling withughter among themselves; none of them believe Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue frowned, "We know that you''ve defeated this Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and that is why your divine consorts have made you their Great Spiritas Hero. But why did the Goddess Ai Tina make you her personal guard of honor? Is it¡­"

    "Is it because to give you a chance to¡­ bang her?" Shui Xisi giggled as she offered a suggestion.

    The Lovely Empress chuckled softly to add, "Why did she make you a divine lord? Is it because of the same reason as well?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know," he frowned at them. "I have 27 tokens here and the trial will pick 6 winning champions from the fifth trial with the highest points. Do you all still want my tokens or not?"

    Immediately the maidens shut up much to Ji Yuan relief but they were soon giggling again among themselves again.

    Ji Yuan asked exasperatedly, "Didn''t you hear me?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled, "There are six maidens here. We just wonder who you want to give your tokens to."

    Xie Hongyu had a flustered look as she said panicky, "You don''t have to give me any tokens. I am not¡­ among you."

    Hua Yunzi was also saying with a flushed look, "Not me either! You don''t have to worry about me. I don''t have to be one of the winning champions."

    Ji Yuan indeed had the intention to give the tokens to Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

    However, he was a little troubled by the 6th person and he was afraid that Hua Yunzi or Xie Hongyu may feel unfair in their hearts.

    But very quickly, he had thought of a brilliant solution.

 Chapter 947 The End Of The Fifth Trial

    ?

    It was almost the end of the Day 5 of the trial and the trial was about to end soon.

    Ji Yuan had 35 Points from the trial and he now had 27 tokens.

    Right now, he had to distribute the tokens to the 6 maidens since the trial was now ending.

    And he was doing it in front of the 27 other cultivators that were nearby him and they were staring at their tokens that were being distributed by Ji Yuan¡­

    Ling Feiyue had 10 Points currently, 5 Points from killing a Destroyer and 5 Points from the tokens that Ji Yuan had given her.

    He handed Ling Feiyue another 2 token and in total, she would obtain a total of 12 Points.

    This puzzled Ling Feiyue as well as Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu.

    Shui Xisi stared nkly at Ji Yuan, "I know your math is poor. Why did you give Maiden Ling Feiyue 2 tokens for?"

    Ling Feiyue blinked her golden eyes before disying a weak smile, "Yeah. Do I need the points at all?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially before he handed 5 tokens each to Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, Hua Yunzi and Xie Hongyu.

    Shui Xisi: ???

    "Huh? 5 tokens each?" the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was perplexed as she looked at the tokens.

    Ji Yuan exined with a grin, "Feiyue and I are the confirmed winning champions. As for the 5 of you, I believe that the Trial Spirit will randomly pick one of you to be kicked out since you have the same number of tokens, am I right? So this will be a fair chance among the 5 of you."

    The Lovely Empress gave Ji Yuan an annoyed look, "Ji Yuan, you seem to be having fun, am I right?"

    But Ji Yuan continued tough jovially; this was his solution.

    At this moment, the profound voice of the Trial Spirit could be heard announcing, "The Trial is now over. In a short while you will all be returned to where you alle from¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned to them as he had waited for the veryst minute to distribute the tokens so that the maidens would not be passing their tokens around and it was also to prevent the rest of the 27 cultivators from having a bad idea to kill someone.

    He knows that many of the 27 cultivators were all cursing him in their hearts by denying them the chance to curry favor with their divine consorts. At the same time, they were also being hold in check by one another; if a fight breaks out, it would be a messy fight by all the cultivators.

    No one wanted to risk their lives in a messy fight especially when there was a 9th rank epic phoenix god beast that was staring at them and suppressing them with its profound aura.

    But when the trial had finally ended, many were quite bitter about it and they had wished that they had killed a cultivator or two.

    Among them was naturally Heng Wujian who had sought to impress his Divine Consort Fu Rong by bring glory to her as the winning champion.

    But he knows that Ji Yuan had two emperor-step divine swords and he was afraid of offending Ji Yuan; it was quite impossible for him to defeat Ji Yuan and to seize the tokens from him.

    It was not only him but many of the cultivators were also wondering if they may be able to kill Ji Yuan and obtain the massive number of tokens before the 9th rank phoenix god beast got to them.

    In fact, thest 10 minutes were the most tense moment as many of the cultivators were all clutching their divine swords tightly and were preparing for ast minute fight.

    No matter how powerful the 9th rank phoenix god beast was, it may not be able to kill all of them in thest few minutes.

    However when they looked at Ji Yuan, they could feel his killing intents and were cowered by it; it was as though Ji Yuan could y them all within moments!

    And this was this profound feat that paralyzed them.

    In their minds, the moment that they had shed forward to attack, they would all be killed by Ji Yuan.

    After Ji Yuan had been tempered by the 81 purple lightning, his sword intentions had also be sharper and he was able to convey his killing intents to all the cultivators.

    This was why all the 27 cultivators did not act until the trial had finally ended.

    The Trial Spirit continued to say, "There will be 6 winning champions for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower and the rewards shall all be the same even though some of you may have higher points than the others¡­"

    "Champion Ji Yuan from the Snowy Pavilion City is the winning champion with 35 Points. He represents the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei ¡­"

    "Champion Ling Feiyue from the city-state of Aiel is the winning champion with 12 Points. She represents the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang¡­"

    "Champion Zhi Jiugong from the city-state of Pandora is the winning champion with 5 Points. She represents the Divine Consort Atnta¡­"

    "Champion Lu Jiangsu from the city-state of Pandora is the winning champion with 5 Points. She represents the Divine Consort Atnta¡­"

    "Champion Hua Yunzi from the city-state of Aiel is the winning champion with 5 Points. She represents the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang¡­"

    "Champion Xie Hongyu from the city-state of Melnibone is the winning champion with 5 Points. She represents the Great Divine Consort Fu Rong¡­"

    Shui Xisi frowned, "So I am the one that didn''t be the winning champion¡­"

    Although she had said that but she was soon smiling; it was because she had already obtained her biggest rewards and that were the Nirvana Herb and Augustina the Phoenix God Beast.

    The Trial Spirit continued to proim, "The winning champions shall receive 10 million spirit stones and 2 random 5th rank profound pills¡­"

    "As for the divine consorts that the winning champions have represented, they shall receive 100 million spirit stones, 10 random 5th rank profound pill and 100 4th rank profound pills¡­."

    Ji Yuan and many of the cultivators were stunned; the rewards for the champions looked a little suck even though 5th rank profound pills cost a lot in the Celestial Realm but it was anything for them to warrant their lives.

    However, the rewards for their divine consorts were considered attractive.

    Also, there were two divine consorts, the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang and Divine Consort Anta that had a double reward and they were to obtain 20 5th profound pills each. This was an unimagined rich wealth of cultivation resources!

    The Trial Spirit added after a short brief for all these to sink in before announcing again, "As Champion Ji Yuan is the top champion in this trial, he is to receive an additional 100 jade stones, 10 random 4th rank profound pills and the title of the Great Spiritas Champion¡­"

    Unknown to everyone, this additional reward had naturallye from request of the Goddess Ai Tina after she had regained control of the Spiritas Tower.

    "The Great Games has officially ended now. You shall now all be taken back to your city-states."

    As the Trial Spirit dered the end of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, shes of light began to zap the cultivators away.

    Ling Feiyue muttered weakly as the shes of light began shing, "You know. Sometimes I hate to take the trial with Ji Yuan. He seems to be number 1¡­"

    Ji Yuan answered bitterly as he looked at her, "I seem to have a better result only if you are with me. Or else my trial results seem to be so sucked that you won''t even believe me¡­"

    He was actually saying the truth; the trials that he had taken without Ling Feiyue by his side, he always got a horrible result.

    But when he mentioned his horrible results to Ling Feiyue, she never believed him because of his good results with her.

    Just as he was thinking that maybe he should make Ling Feiyue his lucky charm instead, he was zapped away by a sh of light¡­

    2. Shui Xisi has the longest trial with Ji Yuan. Maybe the Author likes Shui Xisi more. Hoho.

 Chapter 948 The Great Champion Ji Yuan

    ?

    "Great Champion Ji Yuan, this is your reward." The profound voice of the Trial Spirit thundered in the spatial space where Ji Yuan was taken.

    He had been taken to a spatial space where he was given his rewards which consisted of 10 million spirit stones, 100 Jade stones, 2 5th rank profound pills and 10 4th profound pills.

    These rewards floated in front of him and he quickly pocketed them.

    As he was not gifted in alchemy, he was unable to identify these profound pills so he decided to appraise itter in an alchemy guild or asked if the other maidens would be able to recognize any of the profound pills.

    Although he knows nothing about alchemy but he was still excited to have received these profound pills.

    As he took the reward, he began to growl to the Trial Spirit, "Seriously, I like to know the reason why you have been messing around with me? Don''t give me the crap about testing me or giving me a fortuitous encounter to temper me¡­"

    "You talk too much. You may go now." The Trial Spirit echoed in the darkness of the spatial space.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Wait!"

    And a sh of light soon took Ji Yuan away.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    And he was back in the Divine Temple, at the portal where he had first entered into the Spiritas Tower.

    Almost immediately, he found himself surrounded by Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Chu Lixue, Maiden Flower Ju, Xiao Muhan and many of the spiritas maidens.

    The whole hall of the Divine Temple had suddenly exploded into loud cheers and chants for Ji Yuan!

    "It is the Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan!!! He is back now!!!"

    "We should call him the Great Champion now..."

    "Great Champion Ji Yuan! Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan! Divine Lord Ji Yuan! Warrior-god Ji Yuan!"

    As for Destiny, she pretended to be cool about it and was sipping her spirit tea but she was actually secretly looking at Ji Yuan.

    Everyone was crowding around him and was jostling him excitingly, "Great Hero Ji Yuan¡­ Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan¡­ Master Ji Yuan¡­ you are back!"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was blinking his golden eyes as he stared with shock at Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan amidst the loud weingmotions.

    "Senior Sister Lixue, Brother Xiao Muhan, aren''t the two of you dead?"

    Xian Muhan who could not squeeze to greet Ji Yuan due to the many divine consorts and maidens, began to curse him loudly from afar. "I am dead? I am afraid that your wish is unfulfilled! To think that I am worried that you may die in this trial but you wish that I am dead instead?!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he ignored Xiao Muhan''s cursing; he was actually delighted that Xiao Muhan was actually alive to quarrel with him again.

    Then he was grinning at his Senior Sister Chu Lixue and he had suddenly seized up to hug her tightly, "Senior Sister! Haha. You are actually still alive."

    "Ji... Yuan¡­ what are you doing?!" The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was stunned, "Let me go¡­ we are in the public¡­"

    But Ji Yuan did not care about the startled gasps from the divine consorts, especially Ding Jie''Er as he continued to hug Chu Lixue as heughed jovially, "Haha¡­ haha¡­"

    "What are you¡­ doing?" Chu Lixue was greatly embarrassed now and she was looking flustered.

    This caused many of the men that were the surviving champions to stare angrily at Ji Yuan for taking advantage of such a divine maiden in front of them.

    As Ji Yuan continued to embrace his senior sister, he saw that his senior sister and Xiao Muhan were not the only survivors; in fact, there were around 50 champions that had also survived the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    Chu Lixue could not understand Ji Yuan''s excitement but she could guess why; it was because she was also anxious in the past couple of days for Ji Yuan and worried what he may think if he could not find her in the arena of the fifth trial.

    Her team was actually lost on the second level of the Dream Dungeon of Tenebris and as her team did not meet the condition of reaching the end portal in 5 days, they were disqualified to join the other failed champions in another arena.

    However, they were allowed to watch the battle imageries just like the rest of the spectators in the waiting area and she was able to watch Ji Yuan in the fifth trial.

    Because of that, she was naturally able to see that her other two prot¨¦g¨¦ sisters, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were all in the fifth trial as well.

    She was a little awkward as their senior sister however since she had failed to reach the fifth trial.

    Also, she saw the Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi were also in the same trial as Ji Yuan and they were quite close to Ji Yuan.

    But other than regretting the fact that she could not join Ji Yuan in the fifth team, she was moreforted that he had made it through to the fourth trial andter the fifth trial.

    During the fifth trial, the battle imagery that showed the insane powerful Destroyer fighting against Ji Yuan had stunned her and so did the appearance of the Silver Dragon God Beast.

    She naturally did not know that Ji Yuan had been struck by the profound purple lightning 81 times; this was something that she and the other maidens in the trial wouldter find out through the memory stone that recorded Ji Yuan''s battle imageries.

    In fact, Ji Yuan''s memory stone in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower would be the most heavily copied and sold throughout the 12 city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

    "That is enough already¡­ or you are purposely taking advantage of me¡­" She muttered weakly to Ji Yuan and tried to pull him away from her but Ji Yuan was simply holding her too tightly and he refused to let go of her.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said gently, "You''re my betrothed to be. How can I be taking advantage of you? I am so happy to see my senior sister because tonight I have someone to examine my injuries, if you remember¡­"

    Chu Lixue was flustered immediately as she returned a weak and awkward divine smile back to Ji Yuan.

    Rather than saying that Ji Yuan needed her to examine his injuries, it was more correct to say that Ji Yuan was examining her closely instead.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had witnessed the demise of plenty of his friends over the past 500 years and as a cultivator, he was supposed to put aside the life and death of his friends behind him as quickly as possible or his dao in cultivation would be affected.

    But he was still particrly sad that when he thought that his Senior Sister Chu Lixue and his Brother Xiao Muhan would no longer be around.

    In fact, he did not know that nearly half of the champions had actually survived.

    Except for the third trial, which was either a survive or die trial, the first, second and fourth trial had plenty of champions that failed to meet the requirements and hence, they were taken to the waiting arena.

    But in Ji Yuan''s mind, the trials were just live or die and exactly as ck or white to him.

    The reason why he had such a mentality was because he did not want to disappoint himself with any false hopes and he would even be more sorrowfulter.

    Yang Mi was smiling to Yu Jingjing as she watched the scene between Ji Yuan and her Sister Chu Lixue, "Ji Yuan must have loved my sister so much¡­"

    "Yeah!" Yu Jingjing was also smiling; there was no look of envy in her golden eyes. In fact, she felt quite proud to be Ji Yuan''s maiden.

    Meeting Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was the best thing that had happened to her although they had started off by slinging mud at each other and she had even disliked Ji Yuan because she had thought that he was trying to disdain her.

    Suddenly, Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had interrupted Ji Yuan''s moments with the Smiling Divine Maiden as she smiled enticingly at him. "Great Spiritas Hero and Champion Ji Yuan, the divine consorts will like to hold a banquet tonight in my humble tavern in your great honor."

    It was only then did Ji Yuan let go of his senior sister in an awkward manner because the way Xu Yifei was looking at him was causing him to look awkward in her presence as well.

    "Sure thing¡­"

    Destiny had suddenly approached Ji Yuan and everyone as she interrupted softly, "My congrattions to the Great Champion Ji Yuan for obtaining the position of the top champion in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower. I wonder if we are¡­ able to talk in private for a while?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by the request of the Goddess Destiny but he answered nevertheless, "Uh, sure. Why not¡­"

    All the others were also startled by the sudden request but they did not dare to interrupt the Great Oracle.

    After all, the Great Oracle had warned them that Ji Yuan would not have it easy in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower and she was right.

    Maybe, she may even want to warn Ji Yuan of more dangers through her divination and that was the reason why she wanted to talk to him privately.

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin smiled to Ji Yuan and Destiny, "There is a room in the Divine Temple that you can use. I have someone to show the room to you."

    Destiny smiled in return, "Thank you."

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin said to her closest female follower, "Please show the Great Oracle to the private room. Make sure it is the best room in the Divine Temple."

    With that, Destiny and Ji Yuan had walked away with a couple of spiritas maidens that were all too eager to show them the way to the private room.

    After they were gone, Dongfang Xin had walked to her champions and said nonchntly. "Thank you for your hard work in the Great Games. You are all dismissed. I will give you the appropriate rewardster."

    Then she turned to smile at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, "Maiden Chu Lixue, you may stay."

    Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er and Tang Manni were also doing the same as well as they dismissed all their champions.

    The only exception was Xu Yifei as she had only one champion and that was Ji Yuan.

    Xiao Muhan was also allowed to stay since he was a friend of Ji Yuan and he was apanied by Maiden Flower Ju who said to him, "You are really brave to enter the Great Games."

    "Hohoho." Xiao Muhanughed jovially, "Maybe this time, I can finally have a little breakthrough in my cultivation realm."

    He was thinking that he may be able to breakthrough a small boundary from the earth-step initial saint to the heaven-step initial saint level.

    He could not help muttering a couple of dao inspirations to Maiden Flower Ju gained from his experiences in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, "One small step for my cultivation breakthrough, one giant leap for my future cultivation boundary."

 Chapter 949 Ji Yuan And Destiny (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan and Destiny were soon led to a spacious room by 8 spiritas maidens who could not stop their soft giggling as they secretly looked at Ji Yuan and they hoped to catch his eyes.

    If it was not for the Great Oracle that was also with them, they would have disyed all their charms and tricks to seduce Ji Yuan.

    But for now, they had no other choice but to be as subtle as possible.

    However, Ji Yuan was in mood to appreciate these attractive noble spiritas maidens as he was still thinking on how he should fake his own death to avoid disappointing any of the spiritas maidens in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    He estimated that it was now the 65th days now and he had only 5 days left to settle this problem.

    Although he was forced to admit that he liked Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and even Little Jie''Er but the situation did not warrant it; there was no way for them to be together.

    He could even see the affectionate look that Xu Yifei had quietly left in his heart but he had to disappoint her in the most horrible manner.

    As soon as the array formations sealed the room, Ji Yuan asked Destiny. "Uh, yes?"

    Destiny faintly smiled, "Great Champion Ji Yuan, so how is the feeling of being the top champion in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly at the beautiful figure of the Goddess Destiny in front of him, "Surely you didn''t ask me here to ask me this question?"

    Destiny gently shook her head, "Not really."

    But she was soon smiling as shy shyly put her ck rod to her back behind her back, "Look at you. Without my help, can you defeat that Rey Pugpatine?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You¡­ you know the name of that Destroyer that I am fighting against?"

    Destiny smiled, "Surely you are interested to know why the Trial seems to be against you? Or else why did you bother to ask the Trial Spirit before you go?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "You even know about this?"

    He was beaming now; she is indeed the Great Oracle. She knows everything!

    Surely there must be a way for him to make use of her divination talents?

    Ji Yuan began tough jovially, "I hope the Great Oracle may be able to help me to answer this question. And what is that Silver Dragon God Beast thing?"

    Destiny was now smiling as she finally got Ji Yuan''s interest in her.

    She pointed at the skull ring to make up a half-truth, "The skill ring that I''ve given you is able to project the image of a quasi-real silver dragon god beast to help you. That is what it is able to do."

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "This is a real profound treasure even though it isn''t real. How do I use this skull ring?"

    Destiny smiled, "It has a will on its will and it may be able to save your life in your greatest need. So keep it with you."

    She had told Ji Yuan a half-truth; as long as Ji Yuan did notmand her to tell the truth, she was free to make up a story about it as she did not want him to know that she had been spying on him for the past 30 days.

    Ji Yuan was now grinning as he touched the skull ring excitingly, "Haha, this is indeed a great profound treasure¡­"

    He was thinking that this skull ring may be able to summon a Silver Dragon God Beast briefly but it was enough for him to make his escape or watch the quasi-real silver dragon god beast destroys his menacing opponents for him.

    He wondered how long the apparition of this silver dragon god beast would be able tost him when Destiny quickly said, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    She looked a little flustered in her pale face as she tried to call his name informally but quickly continued shyly, "About why the Trial Spirit behaves this way against you, this is a secret between the two of us. Alright? You must know tell anyone about it."

    Ji Yuan looked a little startled, "Huh? Why?"

    But he quickly said after a quickly ponder, "Alright then. You can tell me now?"

    Destiny nodded after he had agreed with it, "A powerful profound darkness has taken over the Spiritas Tower in the form of this Rey Pugpatine and the Trial Spirit is actually not aware of this. But now that the profound darkness has been destroyed, the Spiritas Tower is also back to normal again¡­"

    JI Yuan was startled; it was because he had heard of the profound darkness quite a few times since he was here and Xu Yifei had even told him that there was a profound darkness deep inside his inner spiritual sea as well.

    "This profound darkness¡­ is this dangerous? And what is it?" He bitterly asked.

    Destiny faintly smiled, "The profound darkness can be divided into the major and the minor profound darkness. It is created in the past with the creation or the use of the profound treasures of the True Devil God and it is the true origin of his profound strength¡­"

    "This Rey Pugpatine is a major profound darkness that has gained sentient over the years in the Spiritas Tower. But it is no longer a threat anyway because it has been returned to the state of its true origin energy."

    She paused a little before deciding that it was not the time to reveal to Ji Yuan that the profound darkness had now been absorbed by Ji Yuan since he is the True Devil God and be part of him now. This would enable him to obtain some of the necessary profound darkness strength for him to cultivate back as the True Devil God in the future.

    What she did not know was that Little Yui the dark sword had absorbed the profound darkness and she would be cultivating Ji Yuan to be the True Devil God sooner than expected.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It seems that the Spiritas Race here is afraid of the profound darkness and they are destroying any profound treasures that have it. But weird, howe the Goddess Ai Tina did not know that there is a profound darkness in the Spiritas Tower¡­"

    "I don''t know if the Goddess Ai Tina knows about the profound darkness or not," Destiny said quietly. "But the profound darkness is a residue of the profound strength of the True Devil God and in the past, he had imbued many of the profound treasures with his true origin energy. Most profound treasures with profound darkness will not be able gain sentient unless they are the major profound darkness. But it is difficult to control profound treasures with the profound darkness since this origin energy is only unique to the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan quickly got it, "So it means that the Spiritas Tower actually belongs to the True Devil God in the past?"

    Destiny nodded, "The Spiritas Tower is meant to be a testing ground for the creations of the trials to aid in the cultivation of his subjects."

    Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed, "His subjects? Are you saying that the entire Spiritas Race here is his subjects?"

    Destiny slowly nodded, "Not just for the Spiritas Race but the Human Race here as well. This entire heavenly divine realm is a creation of the True Devil God in the past. He is the True God and ruler here. And he is also the creation god of the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes; he did not know this.

    But he knows what had happened to the True Devil God from the mural battle imageries in the Goddess Star Pce.

    The Spirit Divine Realm did not seem to have any true gods now. In the past, the Spiritas Race had worshipped the True Devil God but most of them worshipped the Great Beyond Goddess now.

    "Wait a minute," Ji Yuan said all of a sudden as he stared nkly at the Goddess Destiny. "I thought that you are from the Entropy Immortal Realm? Why are you here?"

    Destiny smiled slowly, "So you are finally interested to know why I am in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "If you don''t mind sharing, that is."

    Destiny began to sigh mncholy, "I don''t mind¡­"

 Chapter 950 Ji Yuan And Destiny (2)

    ?

    Destiny appeared to be mncholy as she took another look at Ji Yuan.

    She was repeating herself, over and over again. "I don''t mind¡­"

    Ji Yuan was a little startled to see that that the Goddess Destiny seemed to have exhibited a sorrowful presence and he quickly said, "If the Goddess Destiny did not want to share with me, it is perfectly alright¡­"

    "No, I''m really fine¡­" Destiny was suddenly looking at Ji Yuan with a woeful look.

    The she slowly said, "I have¡­ known the True Devil God for a long time¡­"

    When she had said that, Ji Yuan was a little startled and he muttered almost incoherently to himself: That ugly masked man does not deserve you.

    It was only heard by Anyang and Xiang Li who totally agreed with Ji Yuan by nodding and saying: Yeah!

    Xiang Li raised her fist furiously: Such a beautiful maiden will actually know a dung like that ugly masked man!

    Ji Yuan praised Xiang Li: My dear Xiang Li, why am I agreeing with you on this one? Haha¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly: Then is my lord more deserving than this True Devil God?

    Ji Yuan replied solemnly back to Anyang: I don''t think she likes the True Devil God and that''s why she is sad. It is probably because the True Devil God has forced himself on her. If I were him, I would probably do the same.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li sobbed: This is so sad¡­ wuhuhuhu¡­

    Destiny continued to look at Ji Yuan woefully before she said slowly, ""At that time, the Six Immortal Realms were slowly beginning to be aware of one another and almost all the true gods were interested to establish a hierarchy among the Six Immortal Realms¡­"

    "You may be aware that the Great Beyond Realm is the ranked first among the Six Immortal Realms but that was not the case in the past. It was a time of great chaos among the Six Immortal Realms as the true immortals fought against one another¡­"

    "The Greater Spirit Realm is shrouded in the strangews and concepts of the profound darkness. But this was not a problem for my Chaos Race to unravel it and quickly invaded it¡­"

    She had conveniently neglected to mention that she was the Chaos Empress Sovereign that was leading the aggression and that the protective spatialws around the Greater Spirit Realm was no match for the god beasts of her race to enter into the Greater Spirit Realm.

    "At that time what stands in the way of our conquest is just the True Devil God and the spirit profound beasts. We had thought that this may be an easy conquest but we had never thought that the True Devil God was actually a True Divinity. Even with all the might of our Chaos Race, we are unable to kill him. In fact, we had lost several times¡­"

    Destiny started to sigh woefully, "I have lost several times¡­ but the True Devil God had allowed me to flee every single time¡­"

    She was the Chaos Empress Sovereign naturally and she had led the attack on the True Devil God; even with her god beast form, she was unable to gain an advantage over him nor did the other Chaos Sovereigns that were with her.

    One must know that she was a half-step divinity and in her god beast form, her strength rivaled that of a 10th cultivation realm True Divinity.

    Even 10th rank, 11th and 12th rank profound beasts were nothing in her eyes!

    But this True Devil God was beyond even the 10th cultivation realm!

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why did he let you go every time? Don''t tell me that he is a lecherous true immortal?"

    Destiny hummed coldly, "He isn''t a lecherous true immortal."

    Then she added slowly, "I ask him about this and he told me that the true enemy isn''t my Chaos Race but the Abyssal Gods from the Abyssal Immortal Realm. If I die then chaos will surely reign in my Entropy Realm. In fact, the Abyssal Gods are on their way to my Entropy Realm and that I need to hurry back¡­"

    "As for him, he will try to help my Entropy Realm by going to the Abyssal Gods to kill the True Abyssal Gods and he did seed in killing a couple of the Abyssal Gods. This also helped to stop the Abyssal invasion of my Entropy Realm..."

    "Since then, my Entropy Realm has made a non-invasive pact with the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Then she started to look slowly at Ji Yuan before saying, "When the True Devil God had met his demise, I have decided to stay in the lower realm of the Greater Spirit Realm, which is this Spirit Divine Realm to wait for the return of the True Devil God. After all, this is his divine realm and I am sure that there is a high possibility that he may be reincarnated in this ce."

    However, she waster discovered by the Great Beyond Goddess in the Spirit Divine Realm and she was punished by her to be trapped in the Secret Oracle Gate, unable to exit or to look for the True Devil God.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly when he saw that she was looking at him intensely, so he quickly asked. "I didn''t know that you are also looking for the True Devil God just like the Goddess Ai Tina. This True Devil God sure is popr. Wait a minute, I thought that you are the Great Oracle so you have already known who and where the True Devil God is right?"

    Destiny slowly nodded as she smiled, "Yes. I know where he is now."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "So the Spirit Divine Realm and the Greater Spirit Realm are going to have a True God soon?"

    Destiny smiled wryly, "Yes soon. And we shall go to the Great Beyond Realm and kill the Great Beyond Goddess too."

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes, "Actually¡­ this may be a little hard and it may be not what you think¡­"

    He wanted to tell Destiny that actually the True Devil God had given up his life for the Great Beyond Goddess to be the supreme goddess and prime goddess over the Six Immortal Realms.

    Destiny was suddenly trembling as she held on to her ck rod, "If I have managed toplete my rod of destiny sooner then the True Devil God would not have met his demise by the Great Beyond Goddess. I can cure him¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed, "Cure him? What do you mean?"

    Destiny sighed woefully, "After the True Devil God had gone to the Abyssal Realm, he has paid a heavy price for me¡­ my Chaos Race¡­ by absorbing the corruption and decaying powers of the Abyssal Gods. Why do you think that the Abyssal Realm is so dormant all this while?"

 Chapter 951 Ji Yuans Surprise (1)

    ?

    Ji Yuan asked Destiny, "I wonder if I may know who the True Devil God is?"

    He was a little envious, to say the least.

    Destiny looked at him before she smiled wryly, "It is someone that you know quite well. I am afraid that I can''t tell you who he is. But you can make a guess."

    Ji Yuan was shocked; someone that he knows well?!

    His first thought was: My Brother Xiao Muhan is the True Devil God?! Darn¡­ why is he so lucky¡­

    Destiny smiled as she said to him, "Let''s go."

    When Ji Yuan had left the room with Destiny, he was feeling a little strange; why did the Goddess Destiny tell him all these for?

    At first, he had thought that the Destiny had something to bid him to do, especially after revealing to him that she was the one that had helped him by giving him the skull ring.

    But she had ended up telling him about the True Devil God and why she was here instead.

    Destiny was quietly looking at Ji Yuan while they were walking back to the main hall of the Divine Temple; she could not tell him that she was the Chaos Empress Sovereign or more information about herself as she was afraid that her spirit cor would disappear.

    With this spirit cor, she would also sense where he was constantly and unlike in the past, she was now willing to be his ''contracted ve''.

    She wondered if the present Ji Yuan would be able to ept her into his harem? Since he was willing to ept so many maidens, was she inferior to anyone of them?

    What kind of maidens did he like the most?

    And who is this Jiajia?

    Ji Yuan had a naughty thought as he left with Destiny: If I am not afraid of getting killed by you, I would have banged you. But then, I won''t green my Brother Xiao Muhan¡­

    Once they were back at the Divine Temple, Great Xu Yifei immediately greeted JI Yuan and Destiny with a smile before looking at Ji Yuan coyly, "Master Ji Yuan, tonight we are hosting a small banquet for you. It is to wee you back as well as to celebrate your new status as the Great Champion of the Great Games."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha¡­ this Great Games¡­ is too perverted¡­ I don''t want ever to take it again."

    Xu Yifei looked a little awkward when he had said that.

    But Ji Yuan quickly said to her with a wry smile, "But it is a good experience."

    By now, he knows that it was due to the profound darkness but he had no idea why he was aimed; even Destiny could not give him the answer why.

    If Ji Yuan knows that it was because of his beautiful looks and because his battle imageries were the most viewed, he would have fainted almost immediately.

    Now that he was back to the main hall of the Divine Temple, he was quicky surrounded by Dongfang Xin, Tang Manni, Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie''Er, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue; everyone wasughing jovially when they saw him and so did Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had to admit that he missed them all during the month-long absence, "Haha¡­ it is so good to see all of you together again¡­"

    As for Xiao Muhan, he was standing by the side with Maiden Flower Ju and he was muttering. "This lucky Ji Yuan¡­"

    But he was suddenly interrupted halfway by Ji Yuan who was shouting to him, "Brother Xiao Muhan, I have something for you!"

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "You have something for me?"

    Ji Yuan hastily walked to his side andughed, "No, I mean that I have something for you to do for me. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    "Are you courting to have your ass kicked by me?" Xiao Muhan frowned.

    Ji Yuan patted him and wrapped his arm around his shoulder before he grinned, "Haha¡­ this is something that you will be able to do, don''t worry. And I can even pay you 1 million spirit stones for it."

    Xiao Muhan was startled, "What? 1 million spirit stones?! When did you be so generous? Is this matter hard?"

    JI Yuanughed jovially, "You can even do it with your eyes closed."

    When the other maidens had heard Ji Yuan, they were all curious what Ji Yuan had wanted Xiao Muhan to do?

    Xiao Muhan asked curiously, "If you don''t tell me, how do I know if this is an easy or hard matter?"

    Ji Yuan quickly pulled Xiao Muha away to her corner to whisper in his ears in secret.

    This surprised all the other maidens because it surprised them that Ji Yuan did not want them to know.

    Even Destiny could not eavesdrop on Ji Yuan because he was using a secret transmission to whisper to Xiao Muhan.

    Xiao Muhan frowned with a startled look as he panicky looked in the direction of the five divine consorts and Destiny, "Darn you Ji Yuan, are you sure? What if they got offend by it? Then even if I got 10 lives, it won''t be enough."

    Ji Yuan grinned to him, "It is an easy 1 million spirit stones for you. Do you want to do it?"

    Xiao Muhan hesitated for a while before he frowned, "10 million spirit stones or the deal is off."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he patted Xiao Muhan, "10 million spirit stones, so be it!"

    As he returned to thepany of the maidens, Tang Manni asked him. "Master Ji Yuan, what did you want Xiao Muhan to do?"

    "That is right, Yuan Beluga. You can tell us?" Ding Jie''Er was also curiously asking on behalf of all the maidens presented.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue smiled divinely, "JI Yuan, surely you can share with your senior sister?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially before he said solemnly, "It is a secret but you shall all know at the banquet tonight. Haha¡­"

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Chu Lixue whispered to Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing, "I hope that he isn''t nning a nasty surprise tonight such as faking his death..."

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing: ???

    Maiden Flower Ju had walked secretly walked to Xiao Muhan and she was whispering to him, "What is the thing that Master Ji Yuan wants you to do?"

    But Xiao Muhan shook his head and he answered solemnly, "This is a secret between the brothers."

    Maiden Flower Ju: ¡­

 Chapter 952 Ji Yuans Surprise (2)

    ?

    The banquet that was held in honor for Ji Yuan was not a big one but it was still several hundreds of guests big.

    Ji Yuan was actually expecting for it to be smaller.

    However, the 5 divine consorts had to invite the noble spiritas maidens that were their followers as it was only proper and moreover, all these spiritas noble maidens were eager to look at Ji Yuan.

    Not all of these noble spiritas maidens were presented at the Divine Temple as some of them had duties elsewhere such as at the colosseums and guarding their divine consorts'' vis.

    But tonight, they had all turned up in force for the banquet that was to be given to the honor of Ji Yuan.

    This was a banquet that none of them would want to miss or it would be too shameful to tell the others that they did not attend it in the future!

    So, there were many Spirit Consorts, Fairy Concubines and Spirit Concubines as well.

    As Xu Yifei was the Great Divine Consort, the highest ranked divine consort and also the host, she was naturally orded the highest seat of position in this banquet.

    As for the other 4 divine consorts, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er, they were orded seats of honor that ced them together with Ji Yuan and Destiny.

    Also in the seats of honor were Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden and Xiao Muhan; they were after all Ji Yuan''s friends; they were given the lower upper seats, just below the divine consorts.

    As for the rows of seats below them, it was arranged ording to the noble ranks of the spiritas maidens.

    Maiden Flower Ju was a Spirit Concubine and she was sitting far behind but she did not mind at all; in fact, she was busy gossiping to the other noble spiritas maidens that know her as the housekeeper of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and they were all asking her about Ji Yuan.

    She naturally knows plenty of gossips about Ji Yuan since she almost seen him on a daily basis while he was here and she was only too d to share about his gossips to the others.

    Almost everyone presented today was quite curious to know what was Ji Yuan''s surprise and they were gossiping about it.

    Before the banquet, even Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Chu Lixue had pestered Ji Yuan about this surprise and he merelyughed. "Haha¡­ do you know why the Goddess Destiny has asked me for a private conversation? It is because she is interested in Xiao Muhan. So my surprise is to announce their nuptial ties together in this banquet."

    But Chu Lixue quickly said, "You are lying for sure. Do you want Xiao Muhan to die horribly by doing that?"

    Ji Yuan had grinned, "You will know very soon if I''m telling the truthter. Haha¡­"

    But no matter how they tried to pester Ji Yuan or even Xiao Muhan, these two men refused to tell them anything.

    Their replies were always, "Wait for the banquet and you''ll know."

    And then the two of them mysteriously disappeared for the rest of the day in Xiao Muhan''s room.

    Right now, the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei was now announcing the start of the banquet. "This banquet is held in honor of our Divine Lord Ji Yuan who is also our Great Spiritas Hero. For the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, he has also received the title of the Great Champion to be the greatest champion in the 12 city-states of the in Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad¡­"

    "We are honored that Divine Lord Ji Yuan is actually from our Snowy Pavilion City and he represents us¡­"

    Many of the noble spiritas maidens were giggling and pping for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was a little overwhelmed by so many beautiful maidens that were looking at him with great adtions and he raised his hands to wave at them.

    Xiang Li was also overwhelmed: Wow, Big Brother. You have so many maidens in your harem now.

    Ji Yuan weakly said: They are not my harem. What are you thinking about?

    Anyang was also weakly saying: Xiang Li, what are you thinking about?

    Xiang Li giggled: After you have banged them, they will be in your harem. Big Brother, you got 5 days to bang them all.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Go and die, Xiang Li.

    Xu Yifei gently turned to Ji Yuan with an enticing smile, "Do you have anything to say to everyone here?"

    Ji Yuan saw that Xu Yifei was dressed really beautiful today and he almost had a surge of hot blood in him as he looked at her.

    It was not just Xu Yifei but the other 4 divine consorts were dressed quite beautiful and seductively too.

    This caused Ji Yuan to almost unable to sit still while he was constantly looking at their beautiful figures in front of him.

    But first he had to answer Xu Yifei as heughed jovially, "I have a present to give to the 5 divine consorts. Haha¡­"

    When he had said that, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun and Dongfang Xin were all startled as they almost muttered together, "A present for us?"

    Ji Yuan stood up as he walked in front of the 5 divine consorts and from his spatial belt, he had disyed arge painting that showed him with the 5 divine consorts.

    This painting was really vivid and very beautiful; in fact, it looked extremely profound as though the figures were all living.

    In this painting, Ji Yuan was sitting on a throne and he was being surrounded by the 5 divine consorts in a seductive manner.

    All 5 of the divine consorts were gasping with shock and happiness as they viewed this profound master piece painting which was more beautiful than any painting that they had seen before.

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "My Brother Xiao Muhan and I have spent some time on this painting. I hope the 5 divine consorts will like it."

    Xiao Muhan grumbled softly, "This Rascal Ji Yuan sure has plenty of suggestions¡­"

    He was wondering if he may be killed instead because the way Ji Yuan wants the painting to be, was a little too ridiculous and it may be demeaning to the divine consorts.

    But to his relief, the 5 divine consorts seemed to like this painting. He had better not tell them what Ji Yuan was saying to him when he had asked for the painting to be in this way; he did not want to die yet by telling them that Ji Yuan thought that all the 5 divine consorts were treating him like a king and that they were all desiring him with their eyes.

    He had warned Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan was stubborn to insist that he was right. Since he was his customer and he had paid him good, Xiao Muhan did not want to argue with him.

    Ji Yuan took a quick look at Xiao Muhan when he was disying the extraordinary beautiful painting as he said silently: Thank you Brother Xiao Muhan¡­

    Xiao Muhan is the Saint of Painting. Together with Ji Yuan, they are known as the Two Brushes in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Although his cultivation sucks, but he is truly renowned for his extraordinary painting and he can be considered as the number 1 painter even in the entire Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the 5 divine consorts one by one, "Erm, I hope that you like my painting for you."

    Xu Yifei lowered her eyes with a flustered look, "Yes, I like it very well¡­"

    Tang Manni covered her mouth, "Master Ji Yuan, do you mean this? I love it very much¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga, you have me in your heart?" Ding Jie''Er gasped softly.

    Even Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were bleary eyed as they gasped together, "I¡­ like this¡­ painting¡­"

    Ji Yuan was pleased that they liked this painting; it was meant to be his farewell gift to them once he had left this ce to continue on his trial in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Chu Lixue covered her face as she whispered to her Sister Yang Mi, "Why is that I have a bad feeling that Ji Yuan is sending the wrong signal with that painting?

    Yang Mi awkwardly whispered back, "Same here¡­"

    Yu Jingjing weakly whispered to them, "Why is that I think this painting looks a little lewd in some ways?"

    Yang Mi weakly whispered, "I think so as well. He may be a good poet but he may not be the best person to understand the paintings."

    While Ji Yuan was thinking that it was worth the 10 million spirit stones exorbitant price that he had paid but he had to admit that Xiao Muhan was really a master painter. Just looking at this painting, he felt so good to have the 5 beautiful divine consorts with him.

    Many of the noble spiritas maidens were all pping, praising or were envious that they were not in this extraordinary beautiful painting!

    "This is an extraordinary beautiful painting with our divine consorts and Divine Lord Ji Yuan inside..."

    "Divine Lord Ji Yuan looks so stateful in this beautiful painting..."

    "Our divine consorts seem to be in praise of Divine Lord Ji Yuan in this painting..."

    "I wish that I can be inside this beautiful painting as well..."

    Unknown to everyone, the more praises that were heaped upon this beautiful painting, the angrier Destiny was and there was a twitch in her beautiful eyes.

    All of a sudden, Destiny had suddenly mmed her table as she said unhappily. "Why am I not inside the painting?"

    Her sudden bad mood stunned Ji Yuan, the 5 divine consorts and everyone who were all staring nkly at her.

    Ji Yuan was the most perplexed: Erm, why should you be inside this painting?

    He hadmissioned this painting as the 5 divine consorts had been taking care of him while he was in this ce. While things may not be good with them at the very start except for Xu Yifei, he had fond memories of this ce and with them. That was why he had wanted to leave behind a painting with them behind.

    Destiny was now staring coldly at Ji Yuan now and was demanding an exnation with her eyes.

    Her sudden displeasure had stunned everyone and ruined everyone''s mood.

    But this was their Great Oracle and no one dared to be disrespectful to her.

    It was not only Ji Yuan but the 5 divine consorts were all weakly looking at one another as though they were asking: Why should the Great Oracle be included in this painting that are meant for us?

    To them, this painting meant that Ji Yuan is professing his love for them and it may even mean that Ji Yuan may be dropping them a hint that he would take all of them as his consorts.

    So to include Destiny in this painting looked a little ridiculous in their eyes.

 Chapter 953 Destiny And Ji Yuan

    ?

    Destiny had suddenly mmed the table with her hand and she was saying unhappily as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Why am I not inside the painting?"

    Not only was Ji Yuan startled by the sudden disruption to the jovial mood but all the divine consorts and everyone else was also startled too.

    Immediately the jovial chattering had died down as everyone was looking curiously at Ji Yuan and their Great Oracle.

    Ji Yuan had actually asked Xiao Muhan to draw two copies of the same painting; one for himself of course and the other for the divine consorts. The one for himself was of course for his own guilt pleasure.

    Xiao Muhan had asked him repeatedly, "Are you sure that you want me to draw it this way? Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei has a higher noble rank than you. Shouldn''t she be in the middle instead of you? The way you want me to paint you in the center sounds like you are their lord instead. Aren''t you afraid that they may be angry with you?"

    But Ji Yuanughed instead, "They won''t be upset with me, especially Xu Yufei¡­"

    The Xu Yifei that he knows is the gentlest maiden that he has ever met. Moreover, she had even tried to help him twice and he had even seen her naked twice.

    This painting was his farewell painting for them as he knows their hearts for him.

    So this was the reason why Destiny was not in the painting.

    Moreover, if Ji Yuan had included her in the painting then won''t he courting his own death if Destiny realized that she was inferior to Ji Yuan in it?

    But Ji Yuan did not understand why the Goddess Destiny was so upset with him?

    Isn''t Xiao Muhan and her an item?

    Isn''t Xiao Muhan the True Devil God?

    Didn''t she say that it is someone that you know quite well and she is afraid that she can''t tell me who he is. But I can make a guess?

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt so dumb; does she mean that he is the True Devil God?

    It is because he had suddenly noticed that the Goddess Destiny did not even bother to take a look at Xiao Muhan and she had even told him about her past with the True Devil God.

    He was that ugly man?!

    If not, why should she be upset that she was not in the painting?

    But he was not sure about this yet; he had to confirm with Xu Yifeiter.

    Ji Yuan however did not want the jovial mood to be disrupted for the banquet so he quickly grinned to the Goddess Destiny, "Actually I have prepared a painting for you as well. It is just you and me. However, Xiao Muhan is still preparing for this painting so I am unable to show you this painting tonight."

    Destiny was startled as she blinked with surprise, "You have a painting for me as well?"

    Ji Yuan nodded with a soft chuckle, "That is right. Haha¡­"

    Then he quickly to the others as he cooked a story, "I have promised the Great Oracle to showcase her painting as well. But Xiao Muhan is too slow¡­ I apologize for him. Haha¡­"

    Xiao Muhan: ¡­

    You didn''t even ask me to draw a painting for the Great Oracle¡­

    Destiny looked a little flustered as she realized that Ji Yuan was trying to find an excuse for her outburst and she felt a little bad now.

    And she did not want all the me to be on Ji Yuan too.

    So she smiled to Ji Yuan, "I am only teasing you¡­"

    Then she chuckled softly as she looked at divine consorts and the others, "What? Do you think that your Great Oracle is a goddess that do not know how to joke and is always serious?"

    "This painting is indeed really very beautiful¡­"

    She then had raised her cup of wine as she smiled, "Let me give a toast to Ji Yuan, all the divine consorts and all the spiritas noble maidens here today."

    When she had said that, all 5 of the divine consorts heaved a soft sigh of relief and they were all smiling now as they realized that the Great Oracle was only teasing all of them.

    "So the Great Oracle is only pulling our legs and only teasing us..."

    "Our Great Oracle is truly humorous..."

    "Actually our Great Oracle has helped our Divine Lord Ji Yuan alot through her divinations and he should reallymision the first painting for her instead..."

    When everyone saw that Destiny was smiling and even toasting everyone, soon everyone was all chatting jovially again as they raised a toast to their Great Oracle with merry chatters.

    Ji Yuan had also raised a toast to the Goddess Destiny and he was looking quite relieved as he thought: I have bettermission another painting from Xiao Muhan as quickly as possible or I am going to be dead very soon.

    "A big toast to the Great Oracle for your help. If it isn''t for divinations of the Great Oracle, I won''t be standing in this ce. Haha...." Ji Yuanughed as he grinned and look in the direction of Destiny.

    Destiny was smiling as she looking intently at Ji Yuan and there was a slight flush in her countenance; in the past, the True Devil God would not look at her in this manner...

    Ji Yuan was naturally being himself; the Goddess Destiny was naturally an astonishing beautiful maiden especially with her unsurpassed forbidden immortal air that further enhanced her already astonishing great beauty.

    Most great saint cultivators would not be able to look at her directly without being suppressed by her forbidden immortal air that was like a dizzling bright light and they would not dare to raise their heads to look at her without feeling some ill-effect as their cultivations werecking.

    Xiao Muhan on the other hand was thinking: Brother Ji Yuan, the next painting will cost you 100 million spirit stones. You have no other choice than to beg me to help you or the Great Oracle will be unhappy with you¡­

    Just as the atmosphere for the banquet was back to the jovial mood, a spiritas maiden had suddenly run hurriedly to the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and said, "There are two maidens that are outside that say they know the Divine Lord Ji Yuan. They are a little too strong for us to stop them and they threaten to gatecrash into the tavern if we don''t invite them in soon."

    Xu Yifei was startled, along with the rest of the 4 divine consorts and the others.

    Ji Yuan was also startled, "2 maidens? Who are they?"

    Xu Yifei repeated Ji Yuan''s question and asked the spiritas maiden. "Did they leave behind their names?"

    The spiritas maiden answered, "One is called Bai Qianfeng and the other is called the Little Princess."

    Chu Lixue gasped softly, "Senior Sister Qianfeng is also here¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled but he was also delighted at the same time and he said excitingly, "Quick! Invite them in! Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess are both his closest confidants!

    He did not have news of them in this ce nor the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower but Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing had told them that the two of them had also entered the trial to look for him.

    Ji Yuan was very excited to see his Qianfeng again because he was still thinking of faking his own death and another opportunity had presented itself now.

 Chapter 954 Destinys Background

    ?

    Ji Yuan had shouted excitingly to Xu Yifei, "Quickly! Invite them in! Haha¡­ haha¡­"

    Xu Yifei nodded enticingly as she said the same to the spiritas maiden that was reporting this matter to her. "Invite the two maidens Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess to the banquet."

    Now all the noble spiritas maidens were all curious to know who the two maidens that imed to know Ji Yuan were.

    Even Destiny was portraying a small frown; more rivals? She had secretly overheard Ji Yuan mentioning this Bai Qianfeng several times during the trial and she seemed to be a formidable cultivator that Ji Yuan seemed to trust a lot.

    Soon, there were small chuckles as two astonishing beautiful maidens came into view; they were indeed Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess.

    The reason why they had arrived here in Snowy Pavilion City so quickly was because Bai Qianfeng had flown here with Little Princess.

    Ji Yuan immediately shouted to them, "Qianfeng! Little Princess! Come over here! Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was smiling when she saw Ji Yuan.

    But all of a sudden, she was gasping softly when she saw Destiny was sitting near Ji Yuan and she was looking a little bbergasted.

    It was because she had naturally recognized Destiny and she was none other than the Chaos Empress Sovereign of the Entropy Realm!

    The reasons why she was bbergasted was because the Chaos Empress Sovereign was the divine ruler of the entire Entropy Realm and also a first generation immortal; First generation immortals are all called true immortals and they are more formidable than the second and the third generation immortals even at the same cultivation realm.

    Moreover, just her status alone as the Chaos Empress Sovereign was enough to overwhelm Bai Qianfeng.

    She could still remember the haughty air of the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny when she had visited her in the Entropy Realm as an envoy of the Deste Immortals.

    But one day, the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny had suddenly disappeared and no one could find her; this had be one of the seven great mysteries of the Six Immortal Realms.

    Why is the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny in this lower realm rather than her own Entropy Realm?

    Destiny was also appraising Bai Qianfeng and she had naturally recognized who she was. There was a startled look in her countenance; this Bai Qianfeng is actually the Abyssal Null Goddess and her cultivation has advanced to a great goddess now.

    She thought with a perplexed look: Ji Yuan''s confidant is actually a Deste Immortal that wants to destroy the present Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm? She was actually equally surprised to see the Abyssal Null Goddess in this realm and she is a maiden of Ji Yuan?

    Ji Yuan quickly called out to Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng, "Here! Come sit next to me. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess smiled as they walked into the hall to sit next to Ji Yuan. At the same time they greeted the 5 divine consorts, "Our respects to the divine consorts. We are honored to be invited to the banquet¡­"

    Soon, the two of them wereughing jovially with Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and the Smiling Divine Maiden as the five maidens exchanged pleasant greetings with one another.

    "It is so good to see you all again¡­"

    "Same here!"

    "How have everyone been?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "My Qianfeng and my Little Princess¡­ Haha¡­"

    He could have embraced the two of them if this was not a public ce; even for Ji Yuan, he was feeling a little hot in the presence of so many attractive and beautiful maidens.

    It was as though he was in paradise!

    There was a look of envy in Destiny''s eyes especially when Ji Yuan had suddenly called for Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess to sit next to him when they had arrived at the banquet.

    Once everyone was settled in, a dance troupe of the spiritas maidens had entered the hall for their performances.

    Bai Qianfeng took the opportunity to ask Ji Yuan, "That maiden in white, who is she?"

    Although she had already known the answer but she was actually asking for her alias in this realm. She was very sure that Destiny was not using her real immortal title or else she would not be sitting at a slightly lower seat of honor than Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei.

    In the past, she could never have imagined that she would be sitting on the same level as the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny.

    It was not because of her title as divine ruler of the Entropy Realm but because she truly deserved to have the seat of honor; not only did she have a half-step true divinity cultivation realm but she is also a god beast that makes her equal to a true divinity in formidability!

    Bai Qianfeng had no idea if Destiny was now a True Divinity. If so, then she would even be more formidable than the Great Demon God.

    All the true immortals are all striving to be a True Divinity but that single step to be one was extremely difficulty and it was even more impossible for the second generation immortals to be one.

    To be a True Divinity will mean that they would be allowed to enter the Great Beyond Realm where the Great Beyond Goddess is; Only True Divinities can enter the Great Beyond Realm to cultivate further.

    Naturally, there are many true immortals that dream of overthrowing the shackles of the Great Beyond Goddess when they be a True Divinity and they hope to rece the Great Beyond Goddess as the Great Dao.

    Ji Yuan whispered to Bai Qianfeng, "She is the Great Oracle Destiny. She is highly respected among the Spiritas Race."

    Bai Qianfeng muttered, "Great Oracle?"

    Why did the powerful Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny be a mere Great Oracle in this ce? One must also know that it is extremely difficult for immortals to cultivate in the lower realm unless they could create their own pocket worlds.

    As she took a nce at Destiny, her nce was also met by Destiny.

    Destiny naturally knows what she was thinking.

    It was something that she did not want to tell to anyone; not her Chaos Race, the Spiritas Race or even to Ji Yuan.

    A long time ago, the True Devil God had gone to the Abyssal Realm to fight the Abyssal Gods and to freed her immortal realm from their invasion.

    During his conflict with the Abyssal Gods, even though he had won but he had also absorbed the corruptions of the Abyssal Gods and sooner orter, he would also be an Abyssal God; these Abyssal beings gained powers and cultivation strength by killing one another. So when the True Devil God had killed the Abyssal Gods, he would also gain their unholy cultivation strength.

    Destiny could see the corruptions that was afflicting him when she had an opportunity to take care of the injured True Devil God.

    But the True Devil God had told her that it was alright and he had already found a cure.

    But the next thing that she knows was that the True Devil God had been killed by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    She felt that she was partly to me for the death of the True Devil God and that was why she had been acting the part of the Great Oracle as she helped to keep the Spirit Divine Realm which was the home world of the True Devil God safe from the other immortal realms.

    Although she was aware of the decadent ways of the divine lords but she had adopted a non-interference approach since this she did not want to interfere in their affairs. Moreover, she had promised the True Devil God not to kill unnecessary after he had defeated her repeatedly.

    That was the reason why she did not use her full strength against Ji Yuan when he had first met her and had offended her.

    Also, she was not aware of the ploys of the Supreme Divine Gods of the Great Spirit Realm since she was anchored in the Spirit Divine Realm. Although she was a Great Oracle but she was truly a chatan.

    Most of the time, she was actually trying to cultivate to be a True Divinity by collecting the nine true destinies of the cultivators toplete her rod of nine destinies.

    She could actuallyplete her rod of nine destinies several thousand years earlier but she had restrained from killing the cultivators that she thought may be the good cultivators such as Ai Tina and Achilles.

    If she had done so, she would have escaped from the imprisonment that the Great Beyond Goddess had imposed upon her.

    The reason why she had not was because of the promise to the True Devil God not to kill unnecessary and also over the years, she had lost much of her haughtiness and she was having fun ying the role of the Great Oracle while hoping to see the reincarnated True Devil God as the destined one that would one day visit the Great Oracle of Delphi to divine for his destiny.

 Chapter 955 Ji Yuan Vs. 3 Great Saints (1)

    ?

    The banquet was jovial and everyone was happy.

    Bai Qianfeng was surprised that the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny did not disy her usual haughtiness and was contended to sit alone, disying the asion faint smiles to everyone.

    However, there was no mistaking her forbidden aura and unless it was necessary to talk to her, it was always in a respectful manner and no one dares to joke with her.

    Ji Yuan quickly introduced Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess to all the divine consorts Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    Everyone was happy to greet the two neers in amicably since they were Ji Yuan''s friends. And this included Destiny.

    Bai Qianfeng was actually surprised by it as she returned a friendly toast in the direction of Destiny.

    Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan were drinking a lot and there were many noble spiritas maidens that asked him about his time in the Great Games to answer some of their curious questions; it was because they could not hear anything from the battle imageries so they could only guess what was Ji Yuan''s ns only after he had executed it.

    The trials that Ji Yuan was just too puzzling.

    As Ji Yuan had promised Destiny not to talk about the profound darkness, he decided to make a story about his heroics for all the listeners.

    More than half of the time in the banquet, Ji Yuan was asked about the trials and he was only too happy to exin about it, especially when he could exaggerate his own ounts more than 10 times.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden and Destiny who knows about some of his trials looked a little sheepish when they had heard Ji Yuan; his tales were wilder than even the cultivation stories.

    When they had heard him, they were feeling quite awkward and embarrassed by him.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was d that she was not in all the trials with Ji Yuan because there were even some of the noble spiritas maidens that had asked her to verify Ji Yuan''s ounts and she had lied for him in one way or another. This was bad for the dao in her heart.

    But they forgave Ji Yuan because he looked a little drunk and he looked really happy.

    Just as everyone was in a jovial mood, a spiritas maiden hastily reported to her Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei with a bitter smile. "There are 3 champions outside and they want to challenge Ji Yuan."

    This was overheard by Ji Yuan and everyone else.

    Ji Yuan was already half-drunken so he shouted, "Bring them in and I shall challenge them 1 to 3!"

    Xu Yifei asked Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, are you sure about this? Do you want to reconsider this?"

    But Ji Yuan raised his fists to shout loudly, "Bring them in! Haha¡­"

    Since JI Yuan was also a divine lord and a high ranking noble now, Xu Yifei could only give the orders to bring them in. "Have them brought into the banquet."

    Bai Qianfeng stared at Ji Yuan as she whispered, "This is your problem. I am not going to settle your arrogant problems for yourself."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "They are not happy with me. They will still be unhappy with me when this trial is over. So why don''t I teach them a little lesson?"

    Soon, three fierce looking men had walked into the banquet.

    These three men were all celestials from the Celestial Realm and the first thing that they did is to stare coldly at Ji Yuan.

    They were indeed not happy with Ji Yuan that he had be the Great Champion and had earned the trusts of their divine consorts so they were here to demolish his reputation.

    Two of them were failed champions and they did not reach the fifth trial due to some bad luck while Ji Yuan had recognized one of the champions as Gongsun Yi and he was in the fifth trial. Also, his patron divine consort is Dongfang Xin.

    The patron divine consort of the other two champions was also Dongfang Xin too.

    The three of them raised their voices at the same time, "Our humble respect to all the divine consorts presented. We havee to challenge JI Yuan one by one!"

    "I am Gongsun Yi!"

    "I am Yi Xinfa!"

    "I am Ru Lianxi!"

    The three of them were also great saints and they felt a little humiliated that Ji Yuan would have all the glory and honor from the divine consorts and from the people in Snowy Pavilion City.

    Today, they were here to bust the myth of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan to dust in this ce. What better ce to humiliate Ji Yuan than this banquet where all the noble spiritas maidens were presented?

    Divine Consort Tang Manni shouted in her beautiful voice, "Who do you think that the three of you are that you can issue a challenge to Divine Lord Ji Yuan when and then as you pleased?"

    As she said that, she had nced in the direction of Ji Yuan and she looked a little flustered when Ji Yuan was also looking at her.

    She had seized the opportunity to speak ahead of the other divine consorts as she wanted to present herself in a good light in front of Ji Yuan.

    Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er were actually about to say the same as Tang Manni but she was much faster so they had a disappointing look.

    But they maintained a fierce look at the three men as they protectively stood on Ji Yuan''s side.

    Gongsun Yi said nonchntly, "ordingly to the Spiritas Law, I believe that we have the right to challenge someone to an honor duel and hence, we are here¡­"

    Dongfang Xin seized the opportunity to say coldly this time, "The three of you may be my champions but I am astonished at yourck of knowledge about our spiritasws. Ji Yuan is a divine lord now and only another divine lord or divine consort of the same rank can challenge him to a honor duel. Not the three of you!"

    In her eyes, these three men already had -100 Trust Points with her for daring to challenge Ji Yuan!

    However, Gongsun Yi nor the other two men know about this as they were trying to savage their declining Trust Points after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly grinned to them, "It is alright. I will ept their challenge against me."

    Xu Yifei quickly raised her fingers toward Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, you don''t have to¡­"

    However Ji Yuan grinned as heughed jovially, "Don''t worry, I''ll be fine¡­"

    Then he had turned to look at the 3 men and said, "But 1 to 1 is too boring. Why don''t the three of you fight me at the same time?"

    Gongsun Yi, Yi Xinfa, and Ru Lianxi were overjoyed in their hearts since they did not believe they could ovee Ji Yuan alone; this Ji Yuan was such an idiot for daring to fight against 3 great saints alone!

    "Then I shall make you pay for your conceit in challenging the three of us simultaneously," Gongsun Yi grinned coldly.

    When he had said that, he and the other two men had disyed their heaven-step divine swords!

    By disying their divine swords, they were also forced to disy their profound animus to reveal their cultivation realm as that of the great saint level.

    Their cultivation realm was indeed fierce and except for the divine consorts here, they were all lofty cultivators that could easily defeat most of the noble spiritas maidens in this ce.

    Therefore they had the right to be haughty.

    Moreover when they were back in the Celestial Realm, they were all the blessed sons of the heavens and had an important status in their celestial sects.

    Ji Yuan shed his immortal scabbard first. This immortal scabbard looked like an ordinary scabbard and unless it was an immortal cultivator, it was difficult for even great saints to know that it was an extraordinary immortal scabbard.

    Then from here, Ji Yuan had disyed Xiang Li, his emperor-step divine sword in front of the 3 men.

    A brilliant divine halo shimmered through the sharp tips of Ji Yuan''s divine sword and the radiance of his divine sword was piercing to the eyes.

    This shocked Gongsun Yi, Yi Xinfa, and Ru Lianxi who did not know that Ji Yuan had an emperor-step divine sword and that he actually had the profound strength to wield one!

    Yi Xinfa stammered panicky, "Emperor-step divine sword?!"

    They were all thinking: How the heck did this Ji Yuan get an emperor-step divine sword? Did they just offend a blessed son of the heavens or some extremely powerhouse?!

    There were some regrets in their golden eyes after they had seen the emperor-step that even had a divine halo around it, meaning that it had been fully divine harmonized with Ji Yuan.

    Gongsun Yi was stunned too because he had not seen Ji Yuan disying his divine swords during the fifth trial and hence, he had thought that Ji Yuan''s divine sword was at most a heaven-step divine sword.

    Ru Lianxi could see that Ji Yuan was able to wield his emperor-step divine sword effortlessly and he estimated that this Ji Yuan had twice the profound strength than he did; this caused him to break into cold sweat immediately.

    The there of them did not purchase Ji Yuan''s battle memory stone in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower as it was limited to 100,000 copies for each of the city-state and it was difficult to even buy a copy.

    The reason why was because priority was given to the noble spiritas maidens who had all purchased a copy and to the spectators that spent the most in the tickets for the colosseums. And the battle memory stone that was Ji Yuan had such a high demand that not even 1 million copies were enough and in the ck market, it was marked at a ridiculous high price.

    All the noble spiritas maidens presented in this banquet were actually all fans of Ji Yuan and they were also looking with great hostility at the 3 men.

    Destiny raised her cup as she stared coldly at the 3 men, "Divine Lord Ji Yuan will surely win. These 3 men are simply courting their own death."

    Dongfang Xin was humming coldly in the direction of the 3 men, "From now onward, I am no longer your patron divine consort."

    The sudden promation from Dongfang Xin stunned the Gongsun Yi, Yi Xinfa, and Ru Lianxi; after all, they were all here to earn their Trust Points with Dongfang Xin¡­

    Before they had even dueled with Ji Yuan, their patron divine consort had refused to acknowledge them with a deration!

    Ding Jie''Er shouted in her soft and pretty voice, "They are not weed in the sector of my city too!"

    Sun Dingjun and Tang Manni did not want to lose to Ding Jie''Er and they were also quick to dere, "They are also not weed in my sector of the city too!"

    Dongfang Xin added coldly, "Nor mine!"

    In short, these 4 divine consorts were all saying that they were not weed in Snowy Pavilion City!

 Chapter 956 Ji Yuan Vs. 3 Great Saints (2)

    ?

    The tavern was notrge and it was already packed with the hundreds of noble spiritas maidens in this ce.

    But it was not difficult for Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to strengthen the existing defensive arrays in this ce and to create a protective barrier in the middle of the banquet hall with her defensive spirit talismans.

    Once it was done, Xu Yufei said quietly as she flickered her fingers to activate the defensive arrays. "You can all duel now."

    Ji Yuan had stepped forward unsteadily as he was actually quite drunk to begin with.

    And the 3 great saints Gongsun Yi, Ru Lianxi and Yi Xinfa that challenged Ji Yuan had also stepped inside the protective barrier in the middle of the tavern hall.

    Gongsun Yi nodded to Yi Xinfa and Ru Lianxi as they raised their heaven-step divine swords to point at Ji Yuan; today was the day that they would gain their honor and trust points in front of all the divine consorts in the Snowy Pavilion City.

    They were all thinking the same; the victor is always to be admired and the loser to be scorned. Once they have defeated Ji Yuan, not only would their Divine Consort Dongfang Xin be praising them but all the divine consorts would be doing the same thing as well.

    Also, they were fellow champions with the Smiling Divine Maiden and yet she had never taken a look at them. Today was also the day that they earned the praises of the most beautiful divine maiden in the Snowy Pavilion City.

    And right now, they could even hear her gasping after Ji Yuan. "Junior Brother, be careful!"

    Gongsun Yi said to Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you really have the guts to fight three great saints at the same time. But don''t cry for mercy after you have regretted it."

    "Haha¡­" Ji Yuan chuckled. "I don''t know if I have the guts or not but the three of you certainly have the courage to challenge me. This is indeed admirable."

    This was actually part of the psychology battle between the duelists and Ji Yuan knows it only too well. Therefore, he refused to be cowered by Gongsun Yi.

    The profound aura of Yi Xinfa had suddenly exploded mightily as he stepped forward and a spirit animus of a giant tortoise monster was formed protectively around him; he was a defense cultivator and from the look of it, his profound defense was extremely robust.

    In fact, many of the noble spiritas maidens were wondering if their spirit talismans would be able to hurt this Yi Xinfa at all.

    Yi Xinfa said to Gongsun Yi and Ru Lianxi, "Brothers. I shall cover the two of you while you are attacking this Ji Yuan. Go ahead and use all your profound strength for your offensive profound attacks¡­"

    No sooner had he said that, Ji Yuan had shed in front of him and he had swung his emperor-step sword to strike at Yi Xinfa with his Sacred Sword Pir, causing a brilliant re of white light to explode on him.

    Yi Xinfa was astonished that Ji Yuan was so quick but he was not worried because he was an extreme defense cultivator in the Celestial Realm and it would take many powerful profound attacks to even bypass his Heavenly Xuanwu Spirit.

    But to his horror, a sword stroke had shed him across his chest, shattering his Heavenly Xuanwu Spirit and had sent him to fly all the way until he was knocked out by the inertia barrier.

    Unknown to him, Ji Yuan''s Sacred Sword Pir is actually a miracle sword profound art.

    Ji Yuan had been quite merciful to Yi Xinfa and he had only shed him hard on his chest and by not killing him. If he had shed even an inch deeper, the golden body of this Yi Xinfa would be shattered and he would be killed.

    Ru Lianxi and Gongsun Yi were both power cultivators and they quickly attacked him with their best profound attacks.

    In that instant, they had mustered several sts of profound attacks against Ji Yuan but to their horror, Ji Yuan simply swung his divine sword and scattered their profound energies into nothingness.

    Then while they were still mustering their profound strength to continue their profound attacks, Ji Yuan had already shed the two of them and sent them back 5 steps!

    5 steps!

    This mean that Ji Yuan''s profound power in his sh was 50% stronger than their profound defense and that was why they had taken 5 steps backward!

    They were stunned because Ji Yuan had not even mustered his profound attacks yet and he could hurt them through their protective profound aura¡­

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was delighted; he had be so strong now with a superior divine sword in his hands that he could even hurt two powerful power cultivators.

    This of course had to do with his 81 purple lightning tribtions and his newly acquainted 1000 years attainment from the Minor Miracle Sanctorum Pill.

    Gongsun Yi and Ru Lianxi refused to believe that they were no match for Ji Yuan''s profound strength as they attacked again by disying all their internal and external martial profound arts together.

    Instantly, the air had exploded with the mighty profound power of their profound attacks that were directed at Ji Yuan; they were throwing 100% of all their profound strength against Ji Yuan now.

    Ji Yuan simply disyed his Ultra Sword Spirit and he had sent the two of them to fly back ten steps with another sh of his divine sword.

    This time round though, Ji Yuan was so fast that Gongsun Yi and Ru Lianxi did not even see his attacking.

    But when they saw his Ultra Sword Spirit, they were shaken with trembling fear by his sword intentions and no matter how dense they were, they know that Ji Yuan was only ying with them and he did not even use his full profound strength yet.

    They were not stupid to continue fighting against Ji Yuan anymore as it would only worsen their own humiliations; this Ji Yuan was too freak and they could not believe that they were simply overpowered just by the profound power of his divine sword alone.

    No matter how they increased their own profound power through their epitome profound arts, it still paled inparison against Ji Yuan with just his divine sword and sword spirit.

    Gongsun Yi simply muttered, "I''ve lost¡­"

    And then he was pulling the unconscious Yi Xinfa away panicky and he was thinking: This Ji Yuan is just too terrifying!

    Ru Lianxi coughed out blood as he clutched onto his chest as he staggered off as well. But unlike Gongsun Yi, he was too ashamed to say a word.

    If he had known that this Sword Saint Ji Yuan who was a lowly sword cultivator would be this strong, he would not even think ofing tonight to be humted in this manner¡­

    He could only silently gasp with shock: This Ji Yuan is a freak cultivator. I''ve better don''t offend him anymore or I will surely die without knowing why¡­

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed that the duel was over so quickly and he had only used only a single sword profound art which was the Sacred Pir Sword against Yi Xinfa.

    "This is over so fast?!"

    When he had said that, all the noble spiritas maidens were all pping and looking flustered; the image of Ji Yuan had furthered deepened in their minds and filled them with more adtions for him.

    Most of them were a little worried that Ji Yuan may not be able to handle Yi Xinfa''s formidable profound defense but he was actually the first one to be knocked down.

    To see Ji Yuan in action was even better than just viewing his heroic deeds inside the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower and in this ce, they could all use their spirit divine senses to gauge the profound strength of Ji Yuan and his opponents.

    Thunderous apuds and flustered looks had quickly exploded nonstop until Ji Yuan had walk back to his seat.

    As Ji Yuan walked back to his seat, he turned to look at Destiny with a grin. "The Great Oracle is right. Haha¡­ this is too easy for me."

    When Destiny had received Ji Yuan''s praises all of a sudden, she lowered her head with great coyness¡­

    This was not lost on Bai Qianfeng who could not believe what she was actually seeing¡­

    Ji Yuan, how do you clean up this mess that you''ve created?

    Nor was it lost on Little Princess as well who was quite well versed in the matters of the heart.

 Chapter 957 Ji Yuans Weakness Exposed

    ?

    When the banquet had ended, Ji Yuan was really looking drunk; he had drunk a lot of wines and he was game enough to drink every time a noble spiritas maiden walked to his seat to give him a toast.

    The hundreds of the noble spiritas maidens that did not form part of the personal guard of their divine consorts slowly left the tavern, awash with the blissfulness of seeing their Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan in action today and by his beautiful looks.

    In the past, these noble spiritas maidens had voted in the senate for Ji Yuan to be the Great Spiritas Hero but there were many among them who was not convinced that Ji Yuan actually deserved such an honorable title from the 5 divine consorts.

    And moreover, their divine consorts had even wanted to appoint Ji Yuan as their first ever divine lord and were even willing to make their Snowy Pavilion City an independent city-state.

    But since this was an order from their divine consorts, they had naturally voted for it since this was also a rare time that the divine consorts had been so united.

    But today, they were all convinced especially with Ji Yuan''s performance as the Great Champion in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, which was their greatest event every 500 years.

    Tonight, many of these noble spiritas maidens would be dreaming of Ji Yuan¡­

    Now it was mostly Ji Yuan''s maidens, the 5 divine consorts and Destiny that were now left in the banquet hall of the tavern.

    He was so drunk that Tang Manni was quite astonished that she turned to look at Xiao Muhan, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess and Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden to ask. "Isn''t Master Ji Yuan a cultivator. He would get drunk?"

    Usually cultivators would purge the wines from their bodies and it was true that cultivators almost never got drunk.

    Xiao Muhan answered her awkwardly, "He won''t do that because he is a cheapskate cultivator and he likes to drink himself silly. Also, when he is drunk, he won''t remember anything that has happened too. You can call this his weakness."

    Although he had said so causally, this piece of information was eagerly digested by the five divine consorts Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er.

    Even Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Chu Lixue were also digesting this new piece of information about Ji Yuan.

    Little Princess added weight by sighing softly, "Yeah, he never remembers anything when he wakes up from his drunkenness¡­"

    When Litle Princess had said this, she was actually looking a little frustrated. It was because she was actually Ji Yuan''s first maiden. Or rather, she was Ji Yuan''s first time after he had broken up with his first love.

    At that time Ji Yuan was so drunk that he had barged into her retinue and had even offended her. Not only that, he had even outraged her modesty by touching her and kissing her, as he had mistaken her as his first love.

    Then the shy, shy things had happened between the two of them.

    When Ji Yuan was sobered, he got the impression that he was the one that was ''vited'' from his first time instead and this caused Little Princess to be very upset with him.

    So, she took vendetta on him by really viting him since he had said so.

    And they did the shy, shy thing several times a day for over a month, until Ji Yuan managed to escape from her clutches, leaving her with a broken heart.

    Xiao Muhan snorted as he nodded to agree with Little Princess, "He probably can''t even remember his duel with the 3 great saints as well."

    Ding Jie''Er gasped, "Really?"

    Xiao Muhan pulled the drunken Ji Yuan to him and he started to pinch his cheek, "Rascal Ji Yuan, now tell me about the duel that you fought just now."

    Ji Yuan stared nkly at Xiao Muhan before he frowned, "Duel? What duel? I was drinking with everyone¡­"

    Xiao Muhan grinned at everyone presented, "See! This rascal can''t remember anything when he is dead drunk."

    Then heughed jovially before continuing, "He doesn''t even remember who hit him when he was drunk. Hahahaha¡­"

    All 5 divine consorts were gasping with surprise; Ji Yuan really can''t remember anything?

    Dongfang Xin had suddenly whispered something into Tang Manni''s ears.

    Tang Manni rolled her beautiful eyes before she smiled to the maidens presented, "May Ji Yuan''s friends please retire back to your rooms first. We have something important to talk to Ji Yuan for the night first."

    Dongfang Xin quietly smiled, "That''s right. There is something that we need to talk privately with the Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­ before he returns to the Celestial Realm."

    Xu Yifei and Ding Jie''Er were thinking: We have something to ask Ji Yuan?

    Sun Dingjun was thinking: Is Dongfang Xin thinking what I am thinking?

    Bai Qianfeng frowned, "Surely, this can wait until tomorrow. Ji Yuan is too drunk now¡­"

    Then she smiled wryly as she turned around, "Very well then¡­ and good luck. And also thank you for your hospitalities to me and Little Princess here."

    She then turned to Maiden Flower Ju to say with a faint smile, "May you show Little Princess and I to our amodations."

    Maiden Flower Ju answered without any hesitation, "Please follow me. This way please."

    Bai Qianfeng took ast look at the 5 divine consorts and Destiny before she followed Maiden Flower Ju as she walked away.

    Little Princess did not say much.

    Instead, she had a wry look as she smiled mesmerizingly, "I thank the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei for your great hospitality."

    Xu Yifei smiled enticingly in return, "You''re wee."

    Little Princess smiled at the reply before she walked off with Bai Qianfeng and Maiden Flower Ju.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden looked a little perplexed as she looked at Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi for an answer; it was because she sensed a plot.

    Tang Manni smiled in her direction and at the same time she was also looking at Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi and Xiao Muhan. "May the rest of you please retire for the night."

    Since Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden did not want to lose her trust points with her patron divine consort, she nodded quietly before she walked away with Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi.

    "I am going for my rest as well," Destiny said softly as she walked nonchntly away.

    She knew that that the 5 divine consorts were nning something but as long as she was here, she would not be able to know what it was. That was why she had taken the initiative to leave as well.

    Through the skull ring, she was able to eavesdrop on their conversations with Ji Yuan anyway. So it did not matter if she was here or not.

    As she left, she thought: I wonder what they are nning?

    When everyone had left, Ding Jie''Er asked Dongfang Xin and Tang Mani curiously. "Erm, we have something to ask Yuan Beluga?"

    Dongfang Xin took a look at the drunken Ji Yuan who was half dozing in his seat of honor before she turned to smile at Ding Jie''Er, "Divine Consort Little Jie''Er, don''t you want to know if the Divine Lord Ji Yuan has us in his heart? Don''t you want to know? This may be ourst chance to know. Moreover, he won''t remember our questions, so do you want to know his answers?"

    When she had said that, Ding Jie''Er was startled but she was nodding slowly.

    Even Xu Yifei was looking a little flustered.

    Tang Manni and Sun Dingjun were both pursing their cherry lips nervously; they were all curious to know what their weight were in Ji Yuan''s innermost heart.

 Chapter 958 Ji Yuan, Who Do You Love The Most?

    ?

    Xu Yifei said to a female follower, "It is quite inappropriate for Ji Yuan''s painting to be disyed in my tavern alone. Tomorrow, have an escort ready to take the painting to the Divine Temple where it will be disyed as a valuable legacy for the future generations. But for now, you are dismissed and so is the rest."

    Her order and dismissal were quickly acknowledged.

    As for the rest of the other 4 divine consorts, they had also dismissed all their followers, leaving only the 5 of them to look at the drunken Ji Yuan who was still babbling in the banquet seat.

    Xu Yifei then erected an anti-sound barrier around them so that their conversations would be secret.

    Once they were all secured from scrying, Sun Dingjun pretended to ask innocently as she giggled. "So, shall we ask Ji Yuan who he wants to escort him back to his room? Just thinking about this makes me flush, flush with shyness."

    When she had said that, the other 4 divine consorts Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Dongfang Xin and Ding Jie''Er gave her an awkward look; it was obvious that this was not the question that they wanted to ask Ji Yuan but Sun Dingjun was only trying to bait them by pretending to be as innocent as possible.

    Ding Jie''Er reacted the quickest as she was already quite used to Sun Dingjun''s antics since they were close friends and sisters.

    She giggled softly, "Then why don''t Sister Divine Consort Dingjun asks Ji Yuan for us?"

    Sun Dingjun smiled weakly as she looked at Xu Yifei, "I am only a guest here and I am not the host or the highest ranking noble here."

    She had immediately thrown the ball to Xu Yifei''s yard now.

    "I am not the one who have thought of this," Xu Yifei smiled weakly before she looked awkwardly at her Sister Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin.

    This left Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin to look at each other awkwardly now and they were both thinking of the same thing: why don''t you ask Ji Yuan first?

    Tang Manni looked at everyone with a sigh, "Ji Yuan promises to give us all a proper ounting after he is back from the Spiritas Tower. Maybe we should ask him when he is more sober?" (See Chapter 863)

    Dongfang Xin saw that Tang Manni was still hesitating so sheughed softly as she walked next to Ji Yuan before bending down to whisper to the drunken Ji Yuan, "Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had grabbed her and pulled her tightly toward him and he was frowning, "What Divine Lord Ji Yuan? Call me Ji Yuan instead!"

    Dongfang Xin was startled and she was flustered when Ji Yuan had suddenly pulled her to him and he was even wrapping her waist to stroke her back.

    The other 4 divine consorts were also startled too when they saw that Ji Yuan had outraged Dongfang Xin''s modesty but at the same time, they were hoping that they were the ones that Ji Yuan was embracing now instead of Dongfang Xin.

    Dongfang Xin gasped shyly, "Do you know who I am?"

    Ji Yuan raised his fingers to shake in her face, "Who you are, isn''t important. The most important is, we must drink to our hearts'' content."

    Dongfang Xin turned to look at the other 4 divine consorts with a weak smile, "I think he is totally drunk now. Do you agree with me?"

    All 4 of the divine consorts slowly nodded¡­

    Ji Yuan certainly looked extremely drunk now and he had even dared to outrage Dongfang Xin''s modesty.

    He was now saying with a grin as he stared at Dongfang Xin with his reddened face, "You really have a nice bosoms, you know. Haha¡­ Can I touch you?"

    Dongfang Xin: ¡­

    Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Ding Jie''Er, Sun Dingjun: ¡­

    Dongfang Xinughed softly to Ji Yuan, "I am afraid that I can''t let you touch me there but I can¡­"

    When she had said that, she had suddenly kissed Ji Yuan on his cheek.

    This startled and shocked the 4 other divine consorts; the Dongfang Xin that they know well was the cold and lofty divine consort. Moreover she was known to be nasty toward the men and they all thought that she would never kiss anyone in public especially in front of them.

    But they were all wrong.

    She had.

    Tang Manni looked a little unhappy as she went to the other side of Ji Yuan as well and she had also kissed him on the other cheek.

    This stunned Dongfang Xin and the other 3 divine consorts.

    The most surprised was naturally Xu Yifei herself for Tang Manni is her sister.

    Tang Manni exined with a soft chuckle as she looked at Dongfang Xin, "You have kissed him on one side and it is only fair that I can kiss him on the other side. Right?"

    She was actually flustered when she had said so and was also looking at how Ji Yuan would react.

    However Ji Yuan continued to look stupor and he was even grabbing Tang Manni intimately toward him as he sniffed her, "Maiden, you give off such a nice heavenly scent¡­"

    When Tang Manni heard his praises for her, she was flushing and she did not push him away. Not even when he started to stroke her back as well.

    Instead, she asked him, "Ji Yuan, do you know who I am?"

    Ji Yuan tried to focus his eyes on her but he saw many split images of a hazy maiden, "You are my maiden of course. Do I need to know who you are?"

    "I am¡­ your maiden¡­" Tang Manni was overwhelmed by what Ji Yuan had just told her and her eyes were bleary. "Really¡­ is that what you really think?"

    She had suddenly remembered that Ji Yuan had told her that he loved her before he had entered the Spiritas Tower (Chapter 862).

    And she really loved Ji Yuan and she wanted to be with him¡­

    Xiang Li who was secretly watching in Ji Yuan''s soul sea was feeling quite awkward but she was also quite delightful at the same time.

    Anyang frowned to her: Why are you so excited? They are kissing our lord and not you¡­

    Ding Jie''Er had suddenly stepped forward and she was looking with bleary eyes at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, do you love me?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course I love you!"

    Ding Jie''Er refused to believe it and she slowly put her hands on his cheeks, "Do you know who I am?"

    Ji Yuan stared nkly at her for a while before he grinned, "Of course I do. You are my Little Jie''Er."

    Ding Jie''Er gasped as she covered her mouth, "You do, recognize me?"

    Sun Dingjun was startled as she walked to Ji Yuan and asked, "Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­ do you know me?"

    "Of course I know you! You are Sun Dingjun and you are so beautiful today. Haha¡­" Ji Yuan answered her with jovialughter and at the same time, his hands were not honest with Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin.

    Xu Yifei weakly said, "I think that Master Ji Yuan is really drunk and he may not know what he is saying or doing. Let''s carry him back to his room first¡­"

    "No, I''m not drunk!" Ji Yuan interrupted her, "You are¡­ Xu¡­ Yifei¡­ am I right?" He had hesitated as he was trying to focus on the splitting images of Xu Yifei in front of him until he was finally able to recognize her.

    Tang Manni interrupted him shyly, "Master Ji Yuan, actually... which one of us here do you like the most? Or don''t like?"

    Ji Yuan grinned nkly, "I like all five of you here... hahaha..."

    All 5 of the divine consorts were gasping with shock, "Really..."

    Then Ji Yuan grinned to them, "I see five maidens here. Why don''t the five of you help me to my room and then we can have a little chat?"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, all 5 divine consorts answered almost at the same time in varying degrees of shyness. "Alright¡­"

 Chapter 959 Ji Yuan Cant Remember Last Night

    ?

    The next day.

    When Ji Yuan opened his eyes, he felt a little dizzy and saw that he was in his bed.

    "What happensst night?"

    He was trying to recall what had happened at the banquetst night but he could not really remember anything after his duel with the two great saints that had challenged him.

    All of a sudden, he was startled to see that all five divine consorts sleeping on the same bed as him and he saw that Dongfang Xin and Tang Manni were both holding his arms.

    "What the heck?!"

    He was shocked and he also saw that he was naked under a nket.

    Tang Manni opened her eyes and said sweetly to him, "Master Ji Yuan, you have awakened¡­"

    Dongfang Xin had also opened her eyes and giggled softly to him, "Divine Lord Ji Yuan, you have been very naughtyst night¡­"

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "This¡­"

    Soon, even Xu Yifei, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er had also opened their eyes.

    Ding Jie''Er was even ''pretending'' to pull the straps of her robe.

    Ji Yuan asked them panicky, "Did we do anything¡­ erm¡­ unusualst night?"

    All 5 divine consorts lowered their eyes before they said almost at the same time, "Yes¡­ you can''t remember? You should remember¡­ you have been naughtyst night¡­"

    But of course, nothing had happenedst night but after a short discussionst night, the 5 divine consorts had decided to lie to Ji Yuan and see what he would do.

    It was because they were afraid that Ji Yuan may reject all of them even though he had imed to love them when he was drunk.

    They were not stupid and their sixth sense told them that Ji Yuan was nning to dump them soon¡­

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "What have I done?"

    Ding Jie''Er asked him, "Yuan Beluga, so will you take responsible for us?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he broke into cold sweat, "Erm¡­ of course¡­"

    But he was actually thinking that he had only 4 days before this trial would end and then he had to abandoned them.

    At this moment, he was no longer thinking about his trust points any longer.

    Xu Yifei caught hold of Ji Yuan''s hands all of a sudden as she smiled enticingly, "Master Ji Yuan, why are your hands so cold and why are your heart beating so fast?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Erm, I am not¡­"

    But it was true that his body was cold now; it was not because he did not want to be responsible to them but he could not.

    Xu Yifei held his hands warmly and said, "Actually Master Ji Yuan, we are only teasing you. Nothing has happenedst night. This is merely a joke. Are you angry with us?"

    Ji Yuan''s face had suddenly brightened, "This is a joke? Hahaha¡­ Of course, I don''t mind at all¡­"

    But he was cursing in his soul sea now: Anyang, Xiang Li. Why didn''t you tell me?! Where are the two of you?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: Great Divine Xu Yifei tells me that they are only ying a prank on you and hence, we are not to tell you. Heehee. And you''ve forgotten about us. That is so sad.

    Ji Yuan weaklyughed: Haha¡­

    Tang Manni was now saying to Ji Yuan: Master Ji Yuan, are you upset with us? We just want to y a prank on you. I hope that you don''t mind.

    Ding Jie''Er lowered her head to say mncholy, "Maybe this will be ourst prank to y on you¡­ because you will be going back to the Celestial Realm soon¡­"

    Dongfang Xin was also sighing softly, "We know that we can''t go with you¡­ you are stronger than any of the male cultivators that I''ve seen. You are a hero in my heart, just like my father."

    "Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­" Sun Dingjun lowered her eyes and her countenance was flushing, "I know that I don''t stand a chance being with you¡­ but I still hope that you can stay in this ce to be my lord¡­"

    Tang Manni interrupted her softly, "Isn''t this what we are all hoping for?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Even though I may be leaving for the Celestial Realm soon enough. But one day, I may return here again. When I do, I hope that you will still wee me."

    Dongfang Xin quickly said, "Of course we will still wee you! You will always be the divine lord of our Snowy Pavilion City!"

    "That''s right!" Tang Manni followed after her.

    "Always will be, Yuan Beluga!" Ding Jie''Er said firmly.

    Xu Yifei smiled, "I will always wait for you."

    Ji Yuan tried to smile, "Everyone¡­ thank you¡­"

    But deep inside, he was feeling quite bitter.

    It was not because he did not intend to keep his promise of not visiting them but he got a feeling that he would never be able to visit the Spirit Divine Realm ever again in the next opening of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    If he was not wrong in his guess, the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were not as simple as it looked. In fact, it appeared to him that the celestials were being sent to the various middle and lower worlds to help resolve a crisis in the form of a trial.

    When he had firste to the Spirit Divine Realm, this realm appeared to be all too normal. But he soon discovered that something was off with the Goddess Ai Tina and the Spiritas Tower.

    Although he did not ask the Goddess Ai Tina what had happened in the Greater Spirit Realm but he was able to tell that the Goddess Ai Tina was hiding a secret and she seemed to be thankful for his aid after the Immortal Divine Lord Achilles had also descend.

    Even though they did not tell him any details, he did not feel any hostility from the Goddess Ai Tina anymorepared to the first time that he had met her when he was quite cautious of her motives.

    In fact, he had only felt a quiet gratitude from her which surprised him. This gratitude even extended to the start of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower when the Goddess Ai Tina had made him a divine lord. That was why he did not suspect the Goddess Ai Tina of any foul y in his difficult trial but he was cursing the Trial Spirit of the Spiritas Tower instead.

    Just before she had left for the Greater Spirit Realm, she had offered a heart-warming gratitude to Ji Yuan, "Thank you Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. You have my eternal great thanks."

    He tried to asked her, "I did something?"

    But the Goddess Ai Tina did not give him an answer.

    But his guts feeling was that this crisis was finally resolved when the profound darkness had finally been vanquished from the Spiritas Tower.

    This profound darkness should be the one that Xu Yifei had felt 500 years ago as well.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan for now, the gratitude that the Goddess Ai Tina had for him was that he had identally helped to kill the 6 Supreme Immortal Gods. This is something that Ji Yuan will know at ater time.

    Ji Yuan forced himself tough with a loud deration, "I won''t forget anyone of you¡­"

    All 5 of the divine maidens nodded quietly and their eyes were quite mncholy.

    Ding Jie''Er rubbed the red ring on her fingers as she stared at it: Didn''t the Great Oracle promises me that she will let me be with Yuan Beluga by giving me this red ring? I wonder how she is going to help me?

 Chapter 960 You Are The True Devil God

    ?

    When Ji Yuan was alone in his room and he was trying to sober up, there was sudden knock on his door.

    Curious, he opened the door to his room and was startled to see that it was the Goddess Destiny.

    Destiny smiled to him, "May Ie in?"

    She was naturally aware of what had happened sincest night since she was eavesdropping on Ji Yuan and the 5 divine consorts.

    Like the 5 divine consorts, she was also curious what Ji Yuan thought of her and she had appeared immediately once all the 5 divine consorts had left.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm, sure¡­ may I know why the Great Oracle is looking for me?"

    Destiny did not answer him but she had taken bold stride as she walked in.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "My room is a little messy at the moment¡­"

    Destiny did not seem to hear him and instead she had walked to his bed and sat on it, "You have just awakened?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am a little too drunkst night. Haha¡­"

    Destiny gave him a faint smile, "It is alright. Do you remember what you have said to mest night?"

    Ji Yuan frowned with a look of bewilderment, "I say somethingst night?"

    Destiny smiled, "You say you love me and you will like me to be with you always."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Did I really say that?"

    Oh crap¡­ he was really courting his own death by saying that when he was drunkst night¡­

    "After thinking for the entire night, I have decided to tell you that I''d be willing to follow you from now onward." Destiny gave him a yful wink.

    Ji Yuan was stunned¡­

    He quickly asked Xiang Li and Anyang: Did I really say that to the Goddess Destiny?

    Xiang Li answered delightfully as she covered Anyang''s mouth, "Yeah! You have said that!"

    Ji Yuan was heard muttering in his soul sea: I did?!

    But he quickly returned his attention to the Goddess Destiny, "Erm, unfortunately I will be returning to the Celestial Realm very soon. I am afraid that you can''t follow me there¡­"

    He was actually thinking: No matter how bold I am, I dare not bang the Goddess Destiny¡­

    Although he was saying so but his golden eyes were dishonest when he was saying so.

    Destiny lit a wry smile, "I naturally have my way of following you to the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You can follow me? How?"

    "I am afraid that this is my secret." Destiny chuckled softly.

    Then she winked at him, "So are you excited about it?"

    JI Yuan blinked his eyes as he said awkwardly, "I am¡­ erm... really excited about it¡­"

    But he was thinking: She can really follow me to the Celestial Realm? How is it possible? No way! This must be another joke of the day. I am not falling for it¡­

    So he chuckled loudly, "Haha, I am so excited that you cane with me. If the Goddess Destiny does not mind, we can always be together from now on."

    There was a slight flush that was on Destiny''s cheeks and she was smiling coyly, "This¡­ is my intention as well."

    Ji Yuan asked awkwardly, "Erm, I am just wondering. Just because of what I have said to youst night when I was drunk, you are really willing to follow me? You are not going to wait for the True Devil God now?"

    He wanted to confirm if she was just joking with him.

    He quickly followed up with a weak smile, "You say you know who the True Devil God is, am I right? You can tell me who the True Devil God is now?"

    Destiny smiled, "Do you really want to know?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I think that it may not be Xiao Muhan. Haha¡­"

    Destiny lowered her eyes briefly before she looked at him, "Surely you can guess who he is by now, right?"

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, "I am the True Devil God?"

    The reason why he was suddenly looking awkward was that he had been calling the True Devil God some ugly names and not knowing that he was actually scolding himself.

    All of a sudden, he had remembered the rtionship between the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Did he really know the Great Beyond Goddess in the past?

    He really dares not imagine this as the Great Beyond Goddess represented the highest epitome in cultivation and it is the dream of the immortals to ascend to the Great Beyond Realm after cultivating to the 10th cultivation realm.

    But he could not help saying, "Then, about the Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    Destiny looked startled, "You remember the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Then she quicklyposed herself to say firmly, "Don''t worry. I''ll protect you from the Great Beyond Goddess even if it will cost me my life."

    Ji Yuan was perplexed, "Erm, why would I need to protect myself from the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Destiny sighed softly before she exined mncholy, "I guess that you can''t remember the past yet. Or maybe never. But I can tell you what had happened in the past¡­"

    There was a woeful mncholy look on her before she continued, "A long time ago, you have fought with the Great Beyond Goddess and you got killed by her¡­"

    Ji Yuan remembered this part: The True Devil God actually sacrificed himself by tricking the Great Beyond Goddess to kill him, right?

    Then he had also remembered what Destiny had told him previously that the True Devil God had also absorbed the corruption from the Abyssal Gods. Was that the reason why the True Devil God wanted to be killed by the Great Beyond Goddess?

    Destiny continued woefully, "When you got killed by the Great Beyond Goddess, there is a chance that you will be reincarnated since you are one of the Great Dao in the universe. That is the reason why after your death, I am in your birth realm so that one day, I may be able to meet you again. But the Great Universal Dao works in mysterious way. Although you have appeared in the Spirit Divine Realm but you are a celestial instead of from your original home world¡­"

    "But you know, even after your death¡­" She added even more woefully. "The Great Beyond Goddess did not want to spare you and she tried to find out about your whereabouts through me. So I told her a little lie and she had imprisoned me in my Delphi Pce which is known as the Secret Oracle Gate to the Spiritas here."

    "So, now you know why I am here?" Destiny looked at Ji Yuan and her eyes were glistening.

    Ji Yuan was still a little shocked to hear this ount and he was shocked that the Great Beyond Goddess was seeking to kill him.

    Does the Great Beyond Goddess hates him so much? He is Ji Yuan and no longer the True Devil God¡­

    Like Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang were both startled and they were whispering to each other: Our lord is the True Devil God himself? The Great Beyond Goddess wants to kill our lord?

    Ji Yuan said bitterly to Destiny, "If the Great Beyond Goddess wants to kill me then I am afraid that you can''t protect me from her. As long as I don''t ascend to the upper realms, I think I should be quite safe from her, am I right?"

    Destiny nodded slowly, "The current Great Beyond Goddess has a much higher cultivation realm than when she had killed you so she cannot descend whenever she likes now. If she sends her Avatar against you, I should be able to help you to deal with it. After all, there is a limit to what Avatars can do."

    Ji Yuan was still smiling bitterly; it is because he has suddenly remembered that the Great Beyond Goddess is also his Grand Prot¨¦g¨¦ Mistress since his immortal master is the Old Reverend Beiyuan. Maybe the Great Beyond Goddess would not kill him due to thisyer of rtionship between them¡­

    Ji Yuan decided to put aside thisplicated rtionship aside first and he said to Destiny, "Actually, I am no longer the True Devil God that you know now. I am Ji Yuan and I am also a celestial. I am just in this ce for my trial. When I return to the Celestial Realm, there is a maiden that is waiting for me. In fact, there are several maidens that I have too. This won''t be fair to you and I can''t promise you that I can give you the attention that you need."

    There was a little jitter in Destiny''s heart when she had heard Ji Yuan but she asked nevertheless, "The name of this maiden is Jiajia, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan was truly startled, "You know?"

    Destiny said casually as she red softly at Ji Yuan, "I know everything. I am the Great Oracle, of course."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; he had almost forgotten about this¡­

    He was forced to admit, "Yeah. Among all the maidens, I like Jiajia the most. It is because she has awakened something in me when I was down."

    Destiny smiled to him, "I don''t mind sharing you with the other maidens."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You don''t? But you are an immortal goddess."

    Destiny smiled as she looked gently at him, "I don''t mind because your other maidens won''t be able to catch up with your cultivation. Only I can. Sooner orter, you will only be mine alone. Moreover, do you agree that only I can help to protect you from the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he grinned, "Actually forget about the Great Beyond Goddess for the time being. Do you think that you can help me to fight against Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and the Great Demon God first?"

    There was a soft gasp with Destiny as she stared with shock at Ji Yuan, "I know Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. But how did you offend the Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Aren''t you the Great Oracle? You didn''t know that I have a feud with the Great Demon God?"

    Destiny: ¡­

    She quickly exined with a stammering voice, "I can''t divine the fates of the Immortals or their feuds with you."

    The reason why she was stammering was because this Ji Yuan seemed eager to throw her into two burning bonfires.

    "The Great Demon God and this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao aren''t easy to beat¡­"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I know. That is why I am d to have you on my side. Haha¡­"

    Destiny: ¡­

 Chapter 961 I Need Proof First That Im The One

    ?

    After Destiny had exined to Ji Yuan on his true origin, Ji Yuan was now saying to Destiny, "But before I introduce you to the rest of my maidens, I need to verify something first."

    "What is it?" Destiny returned a curious look.

    Ji Yuan said boldly and there was barely any shame or fluctuations in his heart, "You have to agree to 3 conditions of mine first before I can believe you."

    "3 Conditions?" Destiny was startled, "What is it for?"

    Even Anyang and Xiang Li had a surprised look; they could not believe that Ji Yuan was actually asking for 3 conditions.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I''ve to make sure that this isn''t a prank."

    Destiny: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li: ¡­

    "What are the 3 conditions then?" Destiny asked weakly.

    Ji Yuan was really suspicious that this may be a prank either by Destiny or by the other maidens. After all, he had been pranked too many times by the maidens and he had also pranked on Xiao Muhan too many times.

    Until now, he could not imagine that he was the True Devil God; it was the same as someone telling him that he was the blessed son and appointed one of the heavens. Moreover, he did not feel that he had gained any benefits from being the ''reincarnated'' True Devil God and he had actually worked hard for his own cultivation.

    Although his progression was fast but it was still normal for a sword energy cultivator until the sixth cultivation realm and he would experience a slowdown due to theck of profound cultivation arts.

    But although he was already speedypared to most sword energy cultivators but his fast progression was due to plenty of aid by Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue 2 years ago for his purple lightning tribtion and in the Dream Trial. The most important factor was actually due to the True Sacred Saint profound art that Ji Yuan had been practicing with instructions from Bai Qianfeng and she had also taught the other maidens some shortcuts due to her lofty cultivations.

    But even then, when he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as a great saint, his cultivation realm was actually quite unstable and he had yet to form his golden core of the True Sacred Saint profound art.

    But after he had fully formed his golden core, he had also reached the peak of the great saint level. Also, he also had the time to stabilize his cultivation foundation during his time inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and this was an important factor for him.

    One must know that although Ji Yuan had been inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for only 6 months but actually, he had undergone 2 years inside due to the timepses that he had encountered.

    Also, the cultivation energy inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was like 100 times faster so that the cultivators would actually be able to regain their profound strength and injuries at a 100 times rate.

    This also means that the cultivators inside would also be able to quickly regain even their cultivation cores by cultivating for only just a while time before going for the next trial.

    In short, Ji Yuan had the benefit of more than 200 years of cultivation time to stabilize his cultivation foundation.

    This benefit was actually more than 200 years since there were many things that could be aplished inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth than outside.

    Take for example, it was impossible for Jin Yilong to quickly recover his profound strength and his muttions so quickly outside. Even if he had spent 300 years outside, it was quite impossible for him to survive his encounter and to ovee his parasite host. This was all due to the vast disparity of cultivation energy inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinthpared to the outside.

    Simrly, many of the cultivators would also make sure of the opportunity to cultivate inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for their profound arts rather than outside since they may be able to gain the insights for their cultivation breakthrough. If they could not gain a breakthrough inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they would not be able to breakthrough outside.

    There were even some golden celestial cultivators that have a damaged cultivation core that they could repair outside and they hade into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth specially to repair their cultivation core.

    But of course, the greatest benefit lies in reaching the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and every trial.

    For Ji Yuan, if he could remain inside the Spirit Divine Realm for 70 days then this would be equivalent to 7000 days of extreme hardcore cultivation.

    However, cultivation has a daily limit and it is quite possible for him to cultivate for 7000 days to receive the same benefit as inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Therefore, it is more like 70 000 days for Ji Yuan instead.

    Also, the other benefits that Ji Yuan had gained while he was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was that he was also able to devise so many original sword arts while inside. This was something that was quite impossible for him to do if he was not inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Simrly for Xiao Muhan, he had actually received his breakthrough to the heaven-step of the initial saint level after the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower had ended.

    That is the reason why many golden celestials treat the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as their holy quest every 500 years to go to as the benefits far exceeded any trial in the Celestial Realm.

    The most important reason of course has to do with the 100 times cultivation energy if they could reach the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Empyrean and not any cultivation attainment.

    However, for Ji Yuan, as he had taken many trials inside the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, his cultivation attainment and foundation were a lot more solid now.

    Now, this information was a little off tracked.

    Ji Yuan did not believe he had received any benefits from being the True Devil God since this was all due to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    This was not wrong as he had not awakened his True Devil God''s profound power yet. If he had awakened his True Devil God''s profound power then he would also be easily divined by the other immortal powers.

    Destiny asked Ji Yuan weakly, "What are the 3 conditions?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "First, you got to allow me to kiss you. On your lips of course."

    Destiny was startled and she had turned slightly flustered as she nodded slowly.

    "Secondly," Ji Yuan chuckled softly. "You must not resist if I am touching you."

    Destiny was even more startled by this.

    She slowly lowered her head with a flushed look and answered, "En. So, what''s the third condition?"

    Ji Yuan was actually surprised that a high goddess was actually eding to his ridiculous requests and he felt a little bewildered.

    He was actually only testing the waters¡­

    He blinked his eyes as he weakly said his third condition, "You must not hit me or harm my other maidens."

    Destiny slowly nodded, "This is reasonable."

    Actually, as Ji Yuan''s contracted ve, she could not hit him without getting any bacsh in the first ce and his words were hismands as well.

    However, she had decided not to remove this spirit contract between them first as she still needed it to enter the Celestial Realm.

    When Ji Yuan has returned to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, there will a great void for her to return to her skull ring or rather her Delphi Pce and there is a high possibility of failure. But with this spirit contract, she would have a higher possibility of pinpointing herself to her Delphi Pce and joined him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    She could of course enter her Delphi Pce first before Ji Yuan has returned to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but she would then lose the anchor to the Spirit Divine Realm. Therefore, she could only join Ji Yuanter.

    That was the reason why she needed a ''help'' from Ding Jie''Er. But in order to ensure that she has more than 1 chances, she has the intention to seek Tang Manni to give her the second red ring.

    Ji Yuan mustered some courage as he looked boldly at Destiny up and down, "Erm, you don''t mind if I inspect my goods?"

    Destiny was startled but very quickly she slowly nodded.

    Ji Yuan was thinking if he would be killed by her as he started by touching her smooth and silky hands.

    Then he got bolder as he pressed on her to kiss her small cherry lips.

    But when he saw that she was not resisting, he startled to grope her with his hands¡­

 Chapter 962 Introducing Destiny To My Maidens

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had been acquainted with Destiny, he had wasted no time to bring the other maidens that he had known to his room to make a formal introduction to Destiny.

    Actually, he did not go beyond the normal kissing and hugging with Destiny, if anyone wants to know.

    But he had felt that this was something that the maidens should know since they were all his maidens.

    Very soon, the 5 maidens Bai Qianfeng, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden and Little Princess were in his room as they were startled to see Destiny in the same room as them too.

    Ji Yuan was excited as he proudly introduced Destiny to them, "From now onward, the Goddess Destiny shall be your sister too. She is my maiden too."

    When he had said that, all the maidens were startled; the most stunned was actually Bai Qianfeng.

    Since they had already been introduced during the banquet or earlier, Ji Yuan did not introduced them one by one.

    Destiny smiled to everyone, "I hope to get along well with all of you."

    Yang Mi smiled, "Wee Sister Destiny¡­"

    She was the most amicable and the most trusting so she just weed Destiny without a thought.

    This was quickly followed by Yu Jingjing and Little Princess who were wishing her the same as they smiled to her.

    On the other hand, Chu Lixue and Bai Qianfeng had an astonished look.

    Chu Lixue was thinking; when did Ji Yuan have an affair with the Great Oracle Destiny? Howe I didn''t know about this all this time?

    Destiny smiled wryly to Bai Qianfeng, "We have met again¡­"

    Then she quickly sent her a quiet transmission through her divine whisper: From now, I don''t want Ji Yuan to know that I am the Chaos Empress Sovereign. I hope that the Abyssal Null Goddess can keep this a secret for me.

    Bai Qianfeng nodded with a startled look while answering casually, "Indeed, we have met again."

    Ji Yuan was surprised, "The two of you know each other in the past?"

    Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly, "This is a long story. Let me share with you in the future."

    Ji Yuan nodded before he started tough jovially to all the maiden, especially so to Bai Qianfeng since he was looking at her to check her subtle expressions. "Now we have a strong hand in fighting against the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Great Demon God."

    Bai Qianfeng asked curiously, "How do you intend to travel to the Celestial Realm with us?"

    Destiny smiled, "I have my own way. Naturally you will know when the timees. However, it isn''t the time to tell you yet as I am still trying some finer details¡­"

    Then she chuckled softly, "It may be awkward if I were to fail, am I right? So I''ve better not share it yet."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, "You have better not failed or Jiajia and I will be screwed. I need your help to fight the Great Demon God."

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head weakly, "I don''t think the Goddess Destiny may be of much help, am I right? Against the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "How is it not possible. The Goddess Destiny has a high cultivation realm. Maybe even better than my Qianfeng, haha. When we have exited the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, I''d need the two of you to gang up on the Great Demon God and even Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao while Jiajia and I will take a backseat. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng looked a little woeful as she looked at Ji Yuan, "My lord, I don''t think that this is possible."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "My Qianfeng, erm¡­ are you teasing your lord again?"

    Her remarks had even caused Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Chu Lixue and Little Princess to express a startled look in her direction.

    Bai Qianfeng sighed softly as she said quietly, "The day the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth will be ending, is also the day that I will be ascending to the Ninth Heavens Immortal Realm."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "How is it possible? Didn''t I give you back your celestial divine sword already? You can anchor in the Celestial Realm, am I right?"

    This revtion had also shocked Little Princess, Chu Lixue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing as they stared with disbelief that Bai Qianfeng would be leaving them.

    Bai Qianfeng said slowly as she continued to give Ji Yuan a woeful look, "My lord. The Celestial Realm is able to suppress my cultivation realm while I am there. But while at the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, in the Demonic Divine Realm, I have chosen to reveal my true cultivation realm. By doing so, I can no longer return to the Celestial Realm. As you can see now, I am also not suppressing my cultivation realm in this ce."

    Ji Yaun asked weakly, "But these ces are different from the Celestial Realm, am I right? You can always suppress your cultivation realm when you return to the Celestial Realm¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng interrupted him mncholy, "My lord. You are wrong. All along, we have never escaped from the boundaries and restrictions of the Celestial Realm. Why do you think that we can return to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "Surely you can pay another price to remain in the Celestial Realm with me?"

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head, "I wish that I can but I really can''t. I am already at the end of my limit to remain in the Celestial Realm. Therefore, I am afraid that I can''t join hands with the Goddess Destiny to fight the Great Demon God anymore¡­"

    Then she looked at Destiny and said, "Are you able to fight the Great Demon God? Putting aside your injuries, are you going to suppress your cultivation realm to the 7th cultivation realm or you are nning to one time fight against the Great Demon God? If you choose the first option, you can''t defeat the Great Demon God at all. But if you choose the second option, you need to make sure that you can kill the Great Demon God in your first battle or you will be sent back to the Entropy Realm."

    Destiny: ¡­

    Ji Yuan and the other maidens were also startled when they had heard Bai Qianfeng.

    Bai Qianfeng continued to say woefully, "When you stay at the Spirit Divine Realm, you have chosen the same option as the Great Demon God by suppressing your cultivation strength and then slowly cultivating back to your peak over the tens of thousands of years. To a true immortal goddess like yourself, naturally you have plenty of time to restore to your peak especially when you have no known enemies to fight. But, can you tell me what you will do when you are in the Celestial Realm?"

    Destiny: ¡­

    Bai Qianfeng sighed softly, "If you choose to suppress your cultivation and then regret it, may I remind you that you have to burn your blood essence to regain your cultivation realm and you may not even regain to your peak. But if you choose the second option, with or without fighting the Great Demon God, you can only remain for a short time. Either way, you need to sacrifice plenty of your profound treasures to do so. For Ji Yuan, I am just astonished that you are willing to do so¡­"

    "So may I ask, why is Ji Yuan so important to warrant your attention?" Bai Qianfeng began to look at Destiny while sighing softly. "Because I don''t believe in true love, so please don''t give me any of that crap."

    Destiny: ¡­

    I can''t tell you that Ji Yuan is the True Devil God yet... this is a secret between Ji Yuan and her for the time being.

    Ji Yuan was now looking panicky as he looked at Destiny and Bai Qianfeng in confusion, "You mean we can''t do a thing to the Great Demon God? My Qianfeng will be leaving soon?!"

    Bai Qianfeng interrupted Ji Yuan as she tried to assure him, "You still got the Death God Mingwang on your side."

    When she had said that, this time round Destiny looked startled. "The Death God Mingwang is helping you?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Yeah. The Death God Mingwang is my lover, as a matter of fact¡­"

    "What?!" Destiny was shocked that Ji Yuan was actually a male harlot, "You are the same as those depraved divine lords in the past¡­."

    The other maidens did not know whether tough or cry when they had heard Destiny¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Ahem! I think I can exin this part¡­"

    Destiny said weakly, "I don''t think that I want to hear any exnations on this part¡­"

    She looked a little disgusted, as a matter of fact.

    Ji Yuan quickly exined weakly, "The Death God Mingwang is actually a maiden. Her real name is Yun Chi. Haha¡­"

    When Destiny had heard Ji Yuan, she was astonished. "The Death God Mingwang is actually a maiden?! This is¡­ truly a surprise¡­"

    Like her, the Death God Mingwang is a first generation immortal and while she had not met the Death God Mingwang, these first generation immortals know of one another.

    Bai Qianfeng however was still looking at Destiny, "I don''t know if you are able to help Ji Yuan or not."

    Destiny bit her lips as she said firmly, "My intention is to fight the Great Demon God and then¡­ leave¡­"

    She had lied of course; her intention was to be with Ji Yuan of course so she was actually trying to choose the first option which was to suppress her cultivation realm.

    There was a sorrow in her heart now; if she left the Celestial Realm in that manner then she would not be able to return to the Celestial Realm for a minimum of 500 years.

    The same struggle was also in Bai Qianfeng''s heart as well; for at least 500 years, she would not able to be with Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 963 My Qianfeng, Must You Leave?

    ?

    For the next few days, there were many requests from the other city-states Divine Consorts Fu Rong, Long Fenghuang, Anta, Aiel, Ye Hangyu and many others to pay a visit to Snowy Pavilion City, just for the purpose of acquainting with Divine Lord Ji Yuan.

    However, Ji Yuan had told Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Dongfang Xin that he had to reject their kind offers to visit him since he was still badly injured and in need of cultivating.

    That was a lie.

    Although he had been bloodied all over, his recovery rates were startling.

    He was actually spending his free time with Bai Qianfeng, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Chu Lixue the Smiling Maiden and also with Destiny.

    The maiden that he had spent the most time was Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess since he now knows that she would be leaving after the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    "Ji Yuan, don''t be sad." Bai Qianfeng had said woefully to him, "We will soon meet again. 500 years is but a sh of an eye for the immortals. We will surely meet again."

    "500 years!" Ji Yuan had protested to her with an equally woeful look, "It isn''t 1 year or 2. That is doubled my age! How can I not be sad?"

    He had been with his Qianfeng for such a long time that he could not imagine without her now. In the Dream Trial, he had actually been with her for thousands of years and she was his only truepanion in there.

    Also, Bai Qianfeng had given him his immortal scabbard and had even collected all the thousands of divine swords so that she could help him to grasp a sword domain with his sword spirits. Although she had not expected Ji Yuan to be such a genius sword saint after she had helped him.

    And also, with Bai Qianfeng to be with him as his pillow, Ji Yuan really could not sleep well.

    Bai Qianfeng smiled wryly, "I still have some affairs to settle when I am back to the immortal realm."

    "Such as?" Ji Yuan asked her curiously.

    Bai Qianfeng sighed softly, "Such as what happens between thest immortal war between the Pangu and the Deste Immortals. And also, the whereabouts of the Ancient Fortress City¡­"

    When she mentioned the Ancient Fortress City, there was an inexplicit sadness in her voice; it was because she was one of the twelve citadel lords and also the leaders of her Deste Immortal Race.

    Ji Yuan said to her weakly, "You are an enemy of the Pangu Immortals. They won''t give you a good time¡­."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Don''t forget that I now cultivate the dual deste and righteous energies now. So it will be easy for me to disguise myself as a Pangu Immortal. Moreover, I am a great goddess now."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Is there no way for you to stay with me?"

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head lightly, "I wish that I can but I have already exhausted my time here¡­"

    She had originally escaped to the Celestial Realm in the aftermath of her battle with the Great Goddess Alice to recuperate from her cultivation injuries that were caused by this battle.

    Due to her injuries, she had never actually cultivated like the Great Demon God, the Death God Mingwang and the Deste Dragon God. So when she had forcefully used her cultivation strength to the 9th cultivation realm, she had shortened her appointed time in the Celestial Realm.

    But she had no regrets about it as she was able to help Ji Yuan in the Demonic Divine Realm and in the Goddess Star Pce.

    "Why are you looking so sad?" Bai Qianfeng smiled to him, "I will be back in 500 years for you. Surely you don''t think that I will forget my lord in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I would probably be dead when you''re back."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled as she touched his face gently, "Silly Ji Yuan. You have Yun Chi and also the Goddess Destiny. Destiny is also a great goddess. She will be able to help you¡­"

    Then she had suddenly pinched his face, "Now you can tell me why Destiny is following you?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, not feeling the pain at all. "I''ve promised her not to reveal it. So I can''t tell my Qianfeng about it."

    "That is weird," Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly. "The Ji Yuan that I know is never known to keep his promises."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That isn''t true. I always keep my promises."

    "Maybe only to your Jiajia." Bai Qianfeng smiled wryly. "Am I right?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I disagree. You can eat the wrong foods but you can''t say the wrong words. Do you have any proof that I am a liar?"

    Bai Qianfeng smiled, "Didn''t you say that I am your maiden and you will always be open to me?"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin, "I did say the first part but did I say anything about the second part?"

    "So, you don''t want to tell me?" Bai Qianfeng asked him again casually, disying no emotions.

    "You know," Ji Yuan pointed out. "The walls have ears. If I tell you about it, I may be used as a liar."

    Bai Qianfeng winked at him, "Between the two of us here, I won''t tell anyone about it. It will be only the Heavens know, you know and I know. No one will know about this. So you can tell me now? Or you can forget about seeing me again in 500 years'' time."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This was the ultimate threat.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course, I can share it with my Qianfeng. I share everything with my Qianfeng. In my heart, you have a special status¡­"

    "Don''t give me your rubbish or any of your ttering," Bai Qianfeng giggled as she interrupted him yfully. "Now, tell me the reason why."

    Ji Yuan stammered a little before he said awkwardly, "Destiny thinks that I am the True Devil God."

    Bai Qianfeng was suddenly gasping softly as she took a step back, "You are the True Devil God?! Really?"

    Ji Yuan asked awkwardly, "I don''t look like the True Devil God?"

    Bai Qianfeng stared nkly at Ji Yuan before she shook her head, "You are far too weak to be the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is my Qianfeng insulting me?

    Bai Qianfeng giggled softly as she started to pinch him, "Or maybe my lord is really the True Devil God then this will be interesting¡­ do you remember that murals that we saw back in the Goddess Star Pce? How can you be so impressive looking?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I am always impressive looking."

    "I don''t mean you. I mean the True Devil God in the Goddess Star Pce with his masked helm and armor." Bai Qianfeng chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He is ugly looking¡­

    "Qianfeng, I wonder if you are free now?" He was suddenly asking solemnly.

    Bai Qianfeng: ???

    "Why are you so serious all of a sudden? This is so unlike you. If I am not free, I wpn''t be talking to you now, am I right?" She looked a little amused as she answered him.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had pushed her to a corner and he was grinning, "I want to bang my Qianfeng of course..."

    Bai Qianfeng: ...

    "Not again? Is there nothing else inside your pea brain?"

    Although she was saying so, but she could not resist Ji Yuan''s touches on her; Ji Yuan was already passionately kissing and teasing her body.

    Inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea, Xiang Li was excited now and she was calling out to Anyang: Show time!

 Chapter 964 The Second Red Ring Ownership

    ?

    At the tavern floor, Destiny was quietly sipping the spirit tea alone while recollecting the events over the past few days.

    Destiny had certainly overheard Ji Yuan revealing the secret between her and him to Bai Qianfeng but she did not mind at all.

    Like her, the Abyssal Null Goddess is also a lofty figure.

    She was actually very surprised to see the Abyssal Null Goddess again and she had even acknowleged a weak cultivator as her lord?

    At first, she had thought that the Abyssal Null Goddess was aware of Ji Yuan''s true identity but it seemed not now after she had listened to their conversations.

    It was actually interesting to eavesdrop on them and learning more about the new reincarnated True Devil God.

    Unlike the old True Devil God, Ji Yuan was actually opened to the idea of her following him.

    She was actually more surprised that the Death God Mingwang is actually a maiden and she was immediately curious about her.

    At the same time, she had realized that the Abyssal Null Goddess Bai Qianfeng was right and she had been forthright; she had asked her directly how she is going to descend to the Celestial Realm since she is a great immortal.

    This was actually a question that was also quing her as well since she had made a miscalction and thought that the True Devil God would reincarnation in the Spirit Divine Realm instead of the Celestial Realm.

    This miscalction was actually a fatal mistake and this screwed up her original ns.

    "Ji Yuan¡­" her heart was throbbing as she muttered his name. In this life, she had to be with the True Devil God¡­

    There were soft sighs from her; it was because even if the True Devil God was from the Celestial Realm, this was actually a small problem for her to resolve.

    But she had not expected for Ji Yuan to ask her to fight the Great Demon God instead.

    Frankly speaking, she was quite shocked at this request.

    Not only did Ji Yuan ask her to fight against the Great Demon God, he had also asked her to fight Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao as well.

    She had witnessed the strength of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and she even suspected that she had a formidable divine sword in her scabbard. Moreover, this Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is also Sword Deity and her exactly cultivation realm is way higher than she was disying.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly put her into a tight spot and he was forcing her to choose the second option which was to reveal her true strength. But in doing so, she would be sent back to the Entropy Realm or the Spirit Divine Realm.

    So far, she has not nned on returning to the Entropy Realm and she has since regarded the Spirit Divine Realm as a world to be protected by her.

    At first, she was quite anxious that she may be rejected by Ji Yuan just as he had rejected her as the True Devil God in the past.

    That was why she had tried to drop Ji Yuan a hint about their past together.

    She had not expected that Ji Yuan was readily to ept her as his maiden and had even imposed 3 conditions to her.

    She was now thinking: Against the Great Demon God, Deste Dragon God and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, how much chance do I have against three powerful immortals?

    She did not know that that the Deste Dragon God Longdi had actually fallen and the Great Demon God was even severely wounded by the Evil Cultivation Master who had proimed himself as the Evil Cultivation God now.

    There was another problem too.

    When Ji Yuan had told her about the Great Demon God, she had spent the past couple of days to investigate the Celestial Realm and discovered that the entire Celestial Realm is now isted and no immortals would be able to descend to it as it was now mysteriously blocked.

    She presumed that the Great Demon God was the culprit since he was said to be a master in controlling the mystic arrays.

    Not even the Great Beyond Goddess would be able to descend to the Celestial Realm now.

    It seemed to her that something terrible had befallen to the Celestial Realm now.

    Just as Destiny was taking another sip of the fragrance spirit tea, Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er had entered the tavern and she had ordered her followers to be on standby to one side as she approached.

    She was actually looking for Destiny today.

    "Great Oracle Destiny," Ding Jie''Er sighed softly to her. "Can you really help me?"

    Destiny slowly nodded as she returned a wryly smile, "I can. Do you doubt me?"

    Ding Jie''Er innocently looked at her while rubbing the red ring that was on her fingers, "I do trust the Great Oracle but may I know how you will be able to help me?"

    Her voice was soft as she did not want her followers to know what she was discussing with the Great Oracle but to Destiny, her voice was audible enough.

    There was even a glitter in her eyes as she was really anxious to know the oue and she did not want to miss being with Yuan Bug; since the first time that she had met Ji Yuan, she had already fallen in love with him.

    At this moment, Tang Manni was also seen walking down the stairs after paying her Sister Yifei a visit and she looked troubled.

    It was because tomorrow Ji Yuan would be returning to the Celestial Realm.

    So how could she not be troubled?

    She really wanted to be with Master Ji Yuan and she had never fallen in love before. Therefore, there was a thorough mix feeling in her heart that caused her mood to be extremely sober. And so, she had thought of consulting the Great Oracle¡­

    So imagine her surprise when she saw Destiny with Ding Jie''Er downstairs.

    Destiny looked at her and called out, "Divine Consort Tang Manni, it seems that you are looking for me?"

    Tang Manni quietly walked over to Destiny with a soft sigh. At the same time, she was not willing to disy her innermost voice since Little Jie''Er was also here.

    She said softly, "I can wait forter¡­"

    "You like Divine Lord Ji Yuan but you can only tell me when I am alone, am I right?" Destiny interrupted her with a faint smile.

    "You know¡­" Tang Manni sighed softly.

    "Of course I know. I am the Great Oracle." Destiny smiled yfully.

    Ding Jie''Er said quietly, "I am also looking for the Great Oracle to talk about this."

    Destiny had suddenly shed a red ring to Tang Manni, "If you want to be with Divine Lord Ji Yuan, then take this ring and wear it. Then I may be able to help you just like I am able to help Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er here."

    Tang Manni was startled, "You can help me? What is this red ring? How can you help me? Do you have more of this red ring?"

    Destiny smiled wryly, "One at a time. There are too many questions. You really think that I am a free Oracle?"

    She was naturally only teasing Tang Manni.

    "I''ve only just this red ring left to help you. So, do you want to be with Divine Lord Ji Yuan?"

    Tang Manni was gasping softly, "You can really help me? Is it possible? Only one red ring left¡­"

    Then she saw that Ding Jie''Er also had the same ruby ring as she looked and said to Ding Jie''Er, "Don''t tell me that¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er bit her lips and nodded quietly, "I''ve asked the Great Oracle for help too."

    Tang Manni was astonished as she returned her attention to Destiny, "But my Sister Yifei also likes Master Ji Yuan a lot. This won''t be fair to her¡­"

    Destiny slowly nodded, "I am in a dilemma too. I can only give this red ring to either you or your sister¡­"

    She was actually been impressed by Tang Manni''s courage as she dered to Ji Yuan that she loved him and that was why she had decided to give her this red ring. This was the same reason why she had decided to help Ding Jie''Er too.

    Thenter, she had also realized that Xu Yifei and Ji Yuan were also apatible pair too. This put her into a dilemma.

    Destiny said to Tang Manni as she fingered the red ring in front of her, "If you want to be with your Master Ji Yuan then you must be willing to give up everything here to be with him. By everything, I mean everything such as your divine consort title, influences. all kinds of other ties and this includes your Sister Yifei. So, are you still willing to be with your Master Ji Yuan?"

    Tang Manni was silence for a while before she raised her eyes to say firmly, "I am willing to give up everything to be with Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er looked at Tang Manni and was startled; Tang Manni was the same as her and that she was willing to give up everything here to be with Yuan Beluga.

    It was far easier for Little Jie''Er to give up her position and influence here as she had a bad reputation in Snowy Pavilion City. But for Tang Manni, it was an entirely different matter.

    But yet, she was also willing to give up her everything to be with Yuan Beluga¡­

    This caused the eyes of Little Jie''Er to be glistening and there were mix emotions in her heart.

    Tang Manni asked Destiny, "But how does this red ring¡­ help us to be with Master Ji Yuan?"

    Little Jie''Er was also looking at Destiny; this was the curious question that was in her heart since the beginning.

    Destiny however was looking at Tang Manni instead, "Before I answer your question, do you think that you should at least inform your Sister Yifei first that you are not ever going toe back?"

    Tang Manni was startled as she stammered, "Inform¡­ my Sister Yifei¡­"

    The two sisters had always been extremely close to each other and Tang Manni really had no heart to break it to her Sister Yifei; it is like that she is betraying their sisterhood for a man¡­

    Destiny said to her softly, "I can''t have you having any regrets on this trip. Do you understand? Because I don''t have the power to send you back to the Spirit Divine Realm anytime soon."

    If she left the Spirit Divine Realm, she would be barred from entering the same realm for 500 years at the very minimum. And it would probably be much longer since she had been here for so long.

 Chapter 965 The Traverse Tranference Divine Array

    ?

    Xu Yifei was in her room as she pondered over Ji Yuan as she was saddened that he would be leaving in a day''s time.

    Like the other divine consorts, Xu Yifei also liked Ji Yuan and she was probably the first spiritas maiden here to like him.

    That was because she could sense that he had a good soul and a kind one with her spirit divine sense.

    And that was also why at one point of time, she was also willing to use a mystic circle profound art the ''Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array'' on Ji Yuan to help him to remove the profound darkness. But the condition of using this secret profound array would mean that she had to give up her very own life for him.

    However, the Great Beyond Goddess had stopped her and had even imparted to her two mystic profound circles instead and told her that Ji Yuan is the True Devil God so he would not be harmed by the profound darkness within him.

    The names of the two mystic circles were the Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle and the Traverse Transference Divine Array.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had specially instructed her toplete the Traverse Transference Divine Array within 60 days which coincidences with the time that Ji Yuan would be leaving.

    However, as she cultivated to thest stage of the Traverse Transference Divine Array, she had actually encountered into a problem; there were 6 arrays within the Traverse Transference Divine Array that she could not understand.

    As the Great Beyond Goddess had instructed her not to enter Ji Yuan''s soul sea again, she would not seek further instructions from her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress the Great Beyond Goddess.

    She sighed softly as she fingered the Traverse Transference Divine Array again as golden ley lines appeared in front of her as she traced it rapidly with her fingers; it was only a miniature size array so that she could study it for ws in her cultivation and not the exact one.

    The 6 golden arrays that Xu Yufei had issues in the past were brought into view as she once again began to study them.

    All of a sudden, the golden arrays began to glow brilliantly on its own and this startled Xu Yifei; in fact, the 6 arrays seemed to be rotating rapidly and she could even sense a spatial space that was forming from within.

    "My Protege Xu Yifei¡­" The profound voice of the Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly called from beyond this spatial space and this startled her.

    "Prot¨¦g¨¦¡­. Mistress!" Xu Yifei quickly fell into obeisance as she greeted the Great Beyond Goddess who was also her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress.

    "Yifei, you have done well. You have managed to master the Traverse Transference Divine Array." The Great Beyond Goddess said gently to her.

    Xu Yifei sighed softly, "I have not. There are 6 arrays that I can''t seem to cultivate past. And I¡­ can''t really understand it."

    "That is alright. These 6 arrays are actually for me tomunicate with you and it doesn''t mean that you can''t master the divine array that I''ve taught to you."

    When Xu Yifei had heard her, she was greatly relieved to hear that.

    "Yifei, this Traverse Transference Divine Array isn''t just for you to transfer energy away. Today, I am going to unlock the true purpose of this Traverse Transference Divine Array."

    Xu Yifei was startled, "True purpose? There is another use for this divine array?"

    The profound voice of the Great Beyond Goddess said without any fluctuations, "Indeed. As the name suggests, it is a Traverse Divine Array and it means crossing. Therefore, the true purpose of this Traverse Transference Divine Array is to allow you to cross through the boundaries of space and time. For example, to the Celestial Realm."

    Xu Yifei was truly startled now, "The Celestial Realm?! Then it means that I can be with Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Her beautiful and enticing eyes were suddenly bleary now.

    "However, if you want to make the trip to the Celestial Realm, this will cost you significant amounts of jade stones. I am here to tell you that. As my sessor, I want you to help Ji Yuan and stay by his side. Also, I want you to help me to say a word to a Maiden by the name of Shui Xisi when you see her. Tell her¡­"

    There was a short faltering in the voice of the Great Beyond Goddess before she continued, "That her sister will always remember and miss her."

    Xu Yifei was murmuring now, "Shui Xisi¡­ tell her that her sister will always remember and miss her¡­"

    Then she quicklyposed herself to say, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress, I will abide by your divine instructions."

    Although she did not know why the Great Beyond Goddess had wanted to tell this to Shui Xisi but she did not question it. She would follow the divine will of the Great Beyond Goddess without questioning.

    It was not her station to question the divine ns of the Great Beyond Goddess who was a Beyond Divinity.

    Although she was quite curious to know who this sister was; that she could even bother to make such a request to the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Maiden Shui Xisi?

    She is the maiden with the phoenix god beast?

    She is truly a charming and beautiful maiden.

    Also, even though Xu Yifei did not see her in action while at the fifth and final trial of the Spiritas Tower, she could tell that she is truly strong.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said through the profound golden arrays, "You need to gather 1000 jade stones in order to warp to the Celestial Realm. I can provide you the exact star array co-ordinates to send you to the Deste Celestial Fraternity where Ji Yuan is¡­"

    Xu Yifei was startled: The exact star array co-ordinates?

    She had heard that the Celestial Realm is a vast world with many celestial fraternities; so even if she could travel to the Celestial Realm, it may take her many years to even find Ji Yuan.

    But then this was the Great Beyond Goddess so naturally it would not be an issue for her to give her the exact star array co-ordinates.

    She naturally did not know that the Great Beyond Goddess was very familiar with the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    A golden light began to shine forth from the six golden arrays and into Xu Yifei''s forehead; this was the cultivation methods to further unlock the six arrays that the Great Beyond Goddess had sealed away.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said gently, "From now onward, you can use this divine array tomunicate with me. But it will be draining to you since I am in the Great Beyond. It is better for you to prepare 100 jade stones for the consumption ofmunication should you need to contact me urgently."

    "My Prot¨¦g¨¦ Yifei, once you are in the Celestial Realm, I want you to protect Ji Yuan with the two divine arrays that I have taught you. Stay with him and be his shield, even if this costs you your life. Will you be able to do that?"

    Since Xu Yifei had already once thought of giving up her life for Ji Yuan to cure him of his profound darkness by giving him her fairy body, she did not hesitate at all as she answered. "I''ll protect Master Ji Yuan."

    "You shouldn''t have addressed him as your Master Ji Yuan. He is your future lord consort."

    Xu Yifei flushed lightly as she weakly said, "If he likes me, then I am also willing¡­"

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued, "There is still some time before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I will give you the instructions to join him when it is time. But for now, you should at least make some preparations such as letting your Sister Tang Manni knows about it since you may not be able toe back anymore. The cost of the jade stone is quite exorbitant in the Celestial Realm so you should bring more if you are able to."

    Xu Yifei asked with a soft sigh, "How much time do I have?"

    "Slightly more than 2 months here. The time flows differently in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. For Ji Yuan, it is only a week time more unless he enters some more trials."

    Xu Yifei nodded before she asked timidly, unsure if she could ask this. "Is it possible for me to bring my Sister Tang Manni with me with the Traverse Transference Divine Array?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess paused to consider; the close sisterhood of Xu Yifei and Tang Manni touched her and it reminded her of her troublemaker Sister Shui Xisi.

    Slowly, she said. "Unfortunately, you can''t."

    Xu Yifei looked extremely disappointed and this showed in her countenance.

    "Do you regret your decision now?" The Great Beyond Goddess asked her.

    Xu Yifei shook her head as she said slowly, "I am¡­ just thinking how I should break it to my Sister Manni¡­"

    "There is one more thing." The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly interrupted her.

    Xu Yifei: ???

    "There is an ancient silver dragon god beast that had appeared in thest trial of the Spiritas Tower¡­ this means that Destiny is freed now¡­ tell me about this Great Oracle of yours."

    Aura the Divine Tree was the one that had told the Great Beyond Goddess about a Silver Dragon God Beast which had appeared during thest trial of the Spiritas Tower.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was actually startled that Destiny had stepped in to aid Ji Yuan. Actually, she had known that Destiny was in love with the True Devil God so it was not strange at all. But she was surprised that Destiny had escaped her imprisonment and she was in Ji Yuan''spany.

    This would mean that Destiny may have actually found out that Ji Yuan is the True Devil God now.

    Xu Yifei was surprised why the Great Beyond Goddess was suddenly asking her about the Great Oracle.

    So Xu Yifei told the Great Beyond Goddess everything that she had known about the Great Oracle Destiny.

    When she had mentioned that the Great Oracle Destiny had given Ji Yuan a skull ring, there was a soft gasp from the Great Beyond Goddess.

    It was because the Great Beyond Goddess knows about this skull ring and its purposes.

 Chapter 966 It Is Farewell Now

    ?

    Xu Yifei was surprised that her Sister Tang Manni was suddenly looking for her and she looked awkward.

    Therefore, she knows that something was amiss since she knows her Sister Tang Manni quite well, especially when she was biting her lips and not saying anything; Tang Manni was usually quite frank when ites to disying her emotions.

    Actually, Xu Yifei was also feeling quite awkward; she had no idea how to tell Tang Manni that she may be leaving the Spirit Divine Realm soon and to abandon everyone to be with Ji Yuan.

    "Aye sister," Tang Manni sighed softly, still unwilling to speak her mind.

    Xu Yifei asked curiously, "Sister, something is troubling you? Why don''t you share with me? Maybe I can help you? Or¡­ you are thinking about¡­ Master Ji Yuan?"

    Finally, Tang Manni heaved a soft sigh. "Yes, it is about¡­ Master Ji Yuan."

    Xu Yifei sighed softly, "He is probably leaving tomorrow. We have already said our farewells to him. Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie''Er have beening everyday¡­ but they would all be disappointed. It is because Ji Yuan won''t be staying behind and there is no way for them to be with him either."

    Although they hade everyday but Ji Yuan would onlypany them briefly as a matter of politeness.

    Tang Manni sighed softly, "I know¡­ but¡­."

    "But?" Xu Yifei asked curiously; she had never known that her Sister Tang Manni would be so hesitant. "Sister Manni, you can share with me? Isn''t this the purpose of your visit?"

    Tang Manni finally mustered the courage to say, "The Great Oracle Destiny has promised to help me to be¡­. Master Ji Yuan¡­."

    Xu Yifei was gasping with shock, "She can help you¡­"

    Tang Manni nodded awkwardly, "However, I have to wait a little while longer but I would need to leave by tomorrow¡­ Sister Yifei, I''vee to bid my farewell to you¡­"

    There were tears in her eyes as she muffled, "I am¡­ sorry Sister Yifei¡­. I really want to be with Master Ji Yuan¡­ I don''t want to leave you but I don''t want to leave Master Ji Yuan too¡­ I have already firmly made up my mind on this."

    Xu Yifei was shocked to hear this from her Sister Manni but she was also secretly pleased; it was because she did not want to be separated from her sister.

    So she smiled, in fact this may not be considered as a smile as she was also weeping with joyful tears. "Sister Manni, go and be with Master Ji Yuan. I''ll promise you that I will look for the two of you in the Celestial Realm in the future."

    Tang Manni muttered, "Sister Yifei wille to the Celestial Realm too?"

    She actually did not believe it.

    However, Xu Yifei could not exin it because the Great Beyond Goddess had forbidden her to reveal it.

    Xu Yifei held onto Tang Manni''s hands warmly, "We will meet very soon¡­"

    Tang Manni leaned warmly on her Sister Yifei and there were tears rolling down from her eyes, "Sister Yifei, are you trying tofort me¡­ The Great Oracle can only help Little Jie''Er and me¡­. Sorry Sister Yifei, I can''t get a ce for you¡­"

    Xu Yifei smiled warmly, "Little Jie''Er is with you too? That''s good to hear. Don''t worry¡­ I¡­ will be joining you soon¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    A few hourster.

    Destiny said to Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er, "With my red rings, I can move you to my Delphi Pce which is actually the skull ring that I''ve given to the Divine Lord Ji Yuan and the method for me to move you to the Celestial Realm will be through the spatial space of my Delphi Pce.

    Both Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were surprised to learn that the skull ring was actually the Delphi Pce and they would be shuffled into a spatial space.

    Destiny exined, "My Delphi Pce in its present miniature form can only be essible by the red rings that you are holding. And I can only spare two red rings in this circumstance¡­"

    "In my Delphi Pce, there will be plenty of vicious profound monsters and dangerous spirit nts. So I will suggest that you stay within the pce of my Delphi Pce. With my red ring, no profound monsters will dare to attack you and you will also gain ess to my Delphi Pce¡­"

    "The two of you shall stay there until the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth which is actually the trial that Divine Lord Ji Yuan is actually at now. Thereafter, I shall reunite him with you. The reason is simple¡­"

    "If I allow you to pop up after Ji Yuan has returned from his trial inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the two of you will be viewed as trespassers and immediately be attacked by the Heavenly Dao of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. If you are lucky, you will be sent back to the Spirit Divine Realm with only a minor injury. But if you are not lucky, you will be killed or end up with a crippling injury¡­."

    Tang Manni mustered the courage to ask Destiny, "If this skull ring is your Delphi Pce then won''t you be losing a True Divinity treasure?"

    Ding Jie''Er was nodding too and she was curious why the Great Oracle would give away something so precious to her Yuan Beluga.

    "To help us, isn''t this too great a price to pay for? What can we do to return this great favor that is bestowed to us by the Great Oracle?"

    Ding Jie''Er had asked this as she was unsure how she could repay the Great Oracle for this favor in the future.

    Even Tang Manni felt that this did not make any sense to her too; the Great Oracle was helping them at such a great cost and she had not mention to them about any favor yet.

    The truth was, they would be willing to be the ves of the Great Oracle if this was her request in return for being with Ji Yuan but she had not said anything up to this point.

    Destiny rolled her eyes sheepishly before she smiled wryly, "Haven''t you guessed yet? I like¡­ Divine Lord Ji Yuan as well."

    When Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er had heard Destiny, they were both shocked beyond belief¡­

    "Therefore, you should address me as Destiny or the Goddess Destiny in the future." Destiny chuckled softly.

    Although she was awkward to say so but she still managed to say it out.

    Ding Jie''Er was the one topose herself as she asked, "Then... is the Goddess Destiny joining us in the Delphi Pce as well?"

    Destiny sighed softly, "Not yet. Because I am not fully ready yet... for now, I shall still stay here for a little longer. This, I have already informed the Divine Lord Ji Yuan..."

    Then she smiled at them, "So you have told your followers that you will all be gone, am I right?"

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er nodded; all their female spiritas followers were shocked but they would not tell them where they were leaving. But they had surrrendered their influences to the rest of the divine consorts.

    Destiny nodded, "Then it is time for you to enter my Delphi Pce... it is better to be sooner orter since we do not know the exact hours of Divine Lord Ji Yuan''s departure."

 Chapter 967 The End Of The SS Spirit Trial

    ?

    Today was the day that Ji Yuan would be returning to the Celestial Realm. To be exact, back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    He was excited and sorrowful at the same time.

    Excited because he would soon be collecting his trial rewards and meeting the rest of the maidens again such as Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong again.

    Sorrowful because he was missing this world already and all the beautiful maidens that literally worshipped him like a hero.

    Toward Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, there was a guilt in his heart. It was especially so toward Xu Yifei.

    He was aware of the affections that Xu Yifei had for him and if he did not have to return to the Celestial Realm, he would have taken Xu Yifei when he had the opportunity. However, he had resisted the opportunity to do so because he did not want to hurt her.

    At the same time, he had recollected what Bai Qianfeng had said to Destiny. "So how are you going to n to be with Ji Yuan?"

    And Bai Qianfeng was suddenly looking at the skull ring that was on Ji Yuan''s fingers. "Is this your n?"

    It was hard to escape from Bai Qianfeng''s eyes as she had recognized the skull ring as a True Divinity profound treasure.

    Destiny was forced to admit, "Yes, that''s right but it is also not you have supposed. I have to remain in this realm for a little longer as there are some things that I need to do first."

    Bai Qianfeng was surprised, "Oh?"

    But she did not ask for more rity; after all, this was the Chaos Empress Sovereign that she was addressing and it was rude to question her if she did not want to talk about it.

    At least Bai Qianfeng was quite relieved to know already that Destiny was on their side.

    She had decided to ask Ji Yuan why Destiny was following herter and her question was answered by Ji Yuan. But this happened a little whileter.

    "Ji Yuan," she looked at him intently. "Once you are outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, call out my name 3 times and I wille to your aid. But don''t call me while you are still inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as I may get a severe bacsh."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "I can call you for help? You are not joining me?"

    Destiny said woefully, "Not yet. The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a Beyond Divinity profound treasure. Even for me, I can''t bend the mysticws that are imposed by it. Maybe only the Great Beyond Goddess herself can do so since her cultivation realm is at the Beyond Divinity."

    Then she smiled, "When you are back at the Celestial Realm, maybe I can give you a pleasant surprise or two."

    That was what Destiny had said to him before she had left.

    There was another matter that had caught him by surprise.

    Xiao Muhan had suddenly approached him when he was alone and told him that he would be staying in the Spirit Divine Realm and he would not be returning to the Celestial Realm anymore.

    This surprised and shocked Ji Yuan at the same time.

    "Because you want to be with Maiden Flower Ju?"

    Xiao Muhanughed, "Not only because of this. In the Spirit Divine Realm, I am a seventh realm cultivator and one of the strongest male cultivators here. In the Celestial Realm, my cultivation is like shit. Also, I am super fertile here and who knows, maybe one of my descendants would be able to bang a divine consort one day, Hahahaha¡­."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "You can''t bang a divine consort yourself and you want to depend on your descendants to do it? Well, I can do it myself¡­"

    But he quickly smiled and said, "Well, it is your decision to make. I can''t stop you and I''m going to miss an old friend like you. But can you please finish the painting for Destiny before I return to continue the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? It has been 2 days already."

    Xiao Muhan grumbled unhappily, "I am almost done and I will pass it to Destinyter. I didn''t forget that I have taken your 100 million spirit stones and I will get the job done. It is just that it is a little hard to capture her astonishing divine aura, you know."

    There was suddenly a solemn look on Ji Yuan as he asked, "Brother Muhan, do you have anyst words to send back to the Deste Celestial Fraternity and to some of your old friends?"

    Xiao Muhan simply shook his head, "Nothing."

    "Nothing?" Ji Yuan was greatly astonished.

    But he was soon sighing, "Us two brushes, is going to be one brush now. I really miss you, Brother Xiao Muhan. Hope that we can see each other soon."

    Xiao Muhan gave Ji Yuan a soft but firm pat, "Maybe. Maybe not¡­"

    This was the same pat that Xiao Muhan had once given Ji Yuan many years ago when they had first met.

    At that time, Xiao Muhan was already a half-step saint while Ji Yuan was still a new fifth realm golden celestial. They had met during a drinking session and Xiao Muhan was astonished that Ji Yuan had dared to offend a half-step saint like himself.

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking fondly of the first time that he had met Xiao Muhan too.

    At that time, Xiao Muhan was praising the great beauties of the Deste Celestial Realm while Ji Yuan was rebuking him since he had a low opinion of the beautiful maidens at that time.

    "I am going to paint the most beautiful portraits of the great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity." Xiao Muhan had dered.

    "And I am going to insult the great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity with my poems," dered Ji Yuan loudly on another table.

    And because they did not see eye to eye on this, a fight soon broke out between them.

    Ji Yuan had said angrily to him, "Hehe. I am the Sect Leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect. Offending me is the same as offending hundreds of cultivators from my sect¡­"

    "Hahahaha," Xiao Muhan had mocked him. "So the highest cultivation realm of your puny sect is only at the fifth cultivation realm?"

    The two of them then angrily disyed their fists to beat each other up.

    Xiao Muhan was actually no match for Ji Yuan in a fist fight even he was a half-step saint as Ji Yuan was too strong but eventually their fight was a draw after Ji Yuan had exhausted himself trying to beat up a half-step saint like Xiao Muhan who could not be so easily beaten up with just fists alone.

    And they had a draw in their fight. Just like this, a tired Xiao Muhan had given Ji Yuan a soft pat like the one that he was giving him now.

    At the same time, an exhausted Ji Yuan had also returned a soft pat on Xiao Muhan as well.

    And the two of them returned to their drinking session with Xiao Muhan shouting jovially, "So Brother Ji Yuan, your drinks will be all on me¡­"

    Since then, Ji Yuan had been drinking off from Xiao Muhan since he was a pauper cultivator while Xiao Muhan was a rich cultivator.

    And they had also be the best of friends.

    Now Ji Yuan was also patting Xiao Muhan on his shoulder just like the first time that they had met¡­

    "Brother Xiao Muhan¡­"

    "Ahh, Brother Ji Yuan¡­ farewell¡­"

    Just as Ji Yuan was recollecting the past events to this point, he was suddenly seized by a bright golden light to be taken away; his trial in this ce had finally ended!

    -

    -

    -

    A short whileter, Ji Yuan soon found himself in a dark spatial space and the voice of a Trial Spirit echoed to him, "Congrattions onpleting the Spirit Trial. You shall receive a corresponding reward equivalent to your achievements in the Spirit Divine Realm that is tied with your Trust Points with the divine consorts in there. Now hold up your ck ring in front of you¡­"

    Ji Yuan had recognized the profound voice of the Trial Spirit as the one that had stolen his 3 golden talismans and he was determined to get his golden talismans back this time.

    The Spirit Trial was suddenly gasping, "What?! You have 100 Trust Points with 41 Divine Consorts?!"

    Ji Yuan was also stunned when he had heard the Trial Spirit.

    41 Divine Consorts?!

    Did he even have any contact with so many divine consorts in the very first ce?

    Maybe this was an error and he did not want to waste such a good opportunity to exploit this error.

    So he quicklyughed aloud, "Haha¡­. So what is my rewards for this Trial?"

    After his rewards have been determined, he is not going to cough out his trial rewards even if the Trial Spirit discovers that this may be due to an error.

    The Trial Spirit said after a short hesitation, "You are the top cultivator for this trial. Only not that, you have also unlocked the hidden reward for this trial as well for undermining the Six Supreme Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm."

    "Hidden reward? Undermining the Six Supreme Gods?" Ji Yuan was frowning with a perplexed look; he did not remember ever undermining the Six Supreme Gods as a matter of fact¡­

    But he was soon grinning, "Then my rewards will be?"

    He had better not ask too many questions now or else he would have screwed up with his rewards. This was an error that he was keen to exploit!

    Xiang Li and Anyang were also quite excited too; they were always excited when Ji Yuan was receiving his rewards. Maybe the rewards could even benefit them too!

 Chapter 968 Ji Yuan Spirit Trialâ€™s Rewards

    ?

    Ji Yuan was eagerly anticipating for his rewards from the Trial Spirit.

    The Trial Spirit had suddenly asked him, "Don''t you want to know how you have undermined the Six Supreme Gods?"

    This caught Ji Yuan by surprise as he was trying to suppress his curiosity first and he was trying to obtain his rewards first.

    He weakly said, "Actually I do¡­ but can you give me your rewards first?"

    But the Trial Spirit ignored him and said instead, "You have managed to remove the profound darkness from the Spiritas Tower that has been killing the celestials. By doing so, you have indeed undermined the Six Supreme Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm. Therefore, you deserve an additional reward."

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly: Actually, it was that Silver Dragon God Beast that had killed that Rey whatever profound darkness and not me¡­

    But he was also relieved because he did not remember he had ever done anything to undermine the Six Supreme Gods at all. However, if it was the profound darkness then at least he knows that he partially deserved it and he would not feel any guilt in obtaining this reward.

    "I am going to give you your Trust Points reward first. This is quite unprecedent and I am afraid that you have broken all previous trial rewards. Therefore, I am going to give you something good, which is the insight of the Lesser Heaven Dao."

    All of a sudden there was a sudden sh of light that had shed into Ji Yuan, startling him.

    But at the same time Ji Yuan was frowning, "Lesser Heaven Dao? What is that?"

    The Trial Spirit heaved a soft sigh, "You just don''t realize how lucky you are, do you. This Lesser Heaven Dao is a rare insight simr to your sword spirit. However, your sword spirit is a form of martial intent and is only useful to portray your sword profound arts¡­."

    "This Lesser Heaven Dao is though, is the Ultimate Dao in which you cultivators have been cultivating to catch a glimpse of the Ultimate Dao through years of meditation. Sometimes, you can even meditate for thousands of years and yet it remains elusive to you!"

    Ji Yuan muttered to Xiang Li and Anyang: Howe I didn''t know about this?

    Xiang Li giggled: That is because my Big Brother is azy cultivator who never meditates¡­.

    Anyang chuckled: Our lord only meditates to recuperate and not to think about any Dao¡­

    Xiang Li quickly stepped in to giggle: Big Brother''s dao is the maidens!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Thanks for your ''praises'', my parasite spirit fairies. But shouldn''t the two of you butter me up a little? Do you have to be so frank in my face?

    But he quickly returned his attention to the Trial Spirit and frowned, "I don''t feel any difference from this Lesser Heaven Dao. So, what does it do exactly?"

    The Trial Spirit frowned a deep frown, "Didn''t I just tell you that it will gives you a glimpse of the Ultimate Dao?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I know but I don''t feel a thing, you know."

    The Trial Spirit frowned, "Of course you don''t feel a thing now. It will increase your chance of glimpsing the Ultimate Dao in the future. The benefit naturally isn''t immediate. If you don''t meditate, how do you gain any insights?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    You mean this is a useless reward?!

    Of course, Ji Yuan was only saying it in his thoughts and only Xiang Li and Anyang were able to hear him.

    The two of them were looking as astonished as Ji Yuan too as they were expecting something great such as upgrading their divine swords further.

    "This reward is a littleme," Ji Yuan muttered weakly. "How do I know when I can receive an insight? And what can an insight of the Ultimate Dao do for me?"

    "Are you sure that you are even a cultivator?" The Trial Spirit frowned to Ji Yuan, "When you have received a Heavenly Dao insight, the benefits to your cultivation will be naturally be immerse. For example, you are able to cross over your cultivation blocker to the next boundary. You can even ovee your lightning tribtions and even ascend as an immortal in the future!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Well, I am already a peaked great saint now and also, I think with my divine swords in my hand, I will have no problem to ascend in the future. This Lesser Heavenly Dao insight seems to be a little useless for me¡­"

    "Of course this may be a little useless for you," The Trial Spirit interrupted him with a frustrated voice. "If you are azy cultivator or a low talent cultivator, naturally you won''t be able to glimpse at the Heavenly Dao no matter how hard you have tried. In short, your talents in cultivation are very important and this is something that you ought to invest more time in. Then you shall reap the benefits of cultivating¡­"

    "I have actually spent 100 years in meditation quite recently. So I''m not going to do any deep meditation for some time," Ji Yuan chuckled.

    It was actually only for 10 years since Ji Yuan had spent the other 90 years doing other stuffs.

    The Trial Spirit sighed heavily, "If I have a choice, I won''t give this Lesser Heaven Dao to you because you look like a low talented cultivator to me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am a low talented cultivator?! How the heck can this Trial Spirit tells?

    So he quickly protested, "You know. Looks can be deceiving. Actually, I am a talented cultivator. It is just that the moreplicated cultivation profound arts can''t make me focus on them and I don''t want to waste years of time like a schr¡­"

    The Spirit Trial interrupted him, "That''s enough. I don''t want to listen to your excuses. Now for your second reward¡­"

    Ji Yuan was looking excited again; he has almost forgotten about his second reward. As long as his second reward is good, he could allow the bad first reward to pass.

    "Because of your startling achievements in this trial," the Trial Spirit announced. "You shall be granted the insight of the Greater Heavenly Dao as your reward."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "What the heck?!"

    With that, a more powerful brilliant light shed on Ji Yuan''s forehead again.

    Ji Yuan''s face however was blue, even red and it had even turned ck; it was because he felt like he had been scammed by the Trial Spirit.

    He suppressed his angry emotions to ask quite bitterly, "May I know what is the benefit of this Greater Heavenly Dao and how is it different from the Lesser Heavenly Dao."

    The Spirit Trial said, "The Greater Heavenly Dao has a greater chance to ur for you to glimpse into a bigger portion of the Heavenly Dao for your future cultivation."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Can I change my rewards or not?"

    The Trial Spirit hummed coldly from above Ji Yuan, "No you can''t. And do you think that I would like to give you the Heavenly Dao as a reward? You have no idea how great the benefits the Heavenly Dao are for the talented cultivators. To give you the Heavenly Dao, is truly such a waste!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is too blunt¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan said. "I''ve something to ask you first. Are you the Artefact Core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Or rather, the Sentient Spirit of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    There was a short pause before the Trial Spirit said, "No, I am not. And begone¡­"

    "No," Ji Yuan said firmly. "You are lying. I know that you are the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that I have been looking for."

    There seemed to be a cold smile with the Trial Spirit, "What makes you say so? Or is it because the Heavenly Dao tells you so?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "Nope. I have this guess since the first time that we have met¡­"

    Anyang was suddenly turning to Xiang Li to say: Do you remember our lord tells us a while ago that he has a guess where the artefact core is?

    Xiang Li muttered: I think so. This Trial Spirit is the Artefact Soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?

 Chapter 969 The Artefact Soul Of The EWL

    ?

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Destiny was actually listening to his conversations with the Trial Spirit.

    There was a woeful look in her when Ji Yuan had left.

    By now, she had already sent Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er into her Delphi Pce while she had stayed behind.

    The conversations that she had overheard were quite fuzzy but it was actually not a problem for her to overhear since she was a half-step true divinity and also because Ji Yuan was not totally in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth yet so she could still hear him.

    But this may be thest conversation that she would be hearing from Ji Yuan unless Ji Yuan had chosen tomunicate with her via the skull ring.

    "The Lesser Heavenly Dao?!"

    She was quite shocked to hear that this was actually Ji Yuan''s reward.

    It was because with a glimpse of the Lesser Heavenly Dao, she could be a True Divinity much, much sooner.

    She could gauge from Ji Yuan''s bitter voice that he was quite blue and ck about this.

    "s, Ji Yuan. You don''t know how great a reward it is, do you? For immortals that want to cultivate as a peaked 9th immortal, half-step True Divinity and True Divinity, the insights from the Lesser Heavenly Dao is crucial for any breakthroughs¡­."

    There are 3000 Great Heavenly Dao in the entire universe and every single one of them could propel a cultivator to the peak of cultivation for these 3000 Great Heavenly Dao are the concepts andws of the entire universe.

    And the immortals have also called these 3000 Great Heavenly Dao as also the 3000 Great Mystic Worlds to represent the 3000 Heavenly Dao.

    However, Ji Yuan is still very young and he could see no benefit in it. Moreover, he has already cultivated to the peak of his cultivation realm now.

    But he is not top because he had only focused on his body, mind and energy; his other aspects such as his aura, spirit, soul, defense and power are not even average.

    "Ji Yuan, you are the True Devil God so this Lesser Heavenly Dao will be able to unlock your true potential sooner than you have expected. This will be good for you¡­"

    She was actually quite green with envy as she thought, "I have better returned to my Entropy Realm to recuperate for my injuries and for my final breakthrough to the True Divinity¡­"

    When she hadpleted her ck rod of destiny, she had already stepped into True Divinity but she was being suppressed while she was here and also because she had not stabilized her cultivation boundaries yet. So it was not a real breakthrough. It was just that she had not fully stepped into the True Divinity boundary yet.

    For that, she would need all the cultivation resources of the Entropy Realm and she may even be forced to return as the Chaos Empress Sovereign.

    Only then would she be of help to Ji Yuan in his fight against the Great Demon God and his other powerful minions.

    Just as she had just calmed herself on this resolution, she had overheard the Trial Spirit telling Ji Yuan that his second reward would be the Greater Heavenly Dao.

    When she had heard this, she nearly fainted with shock.

    "Greater Heavenly Dao?!"

    That would mean that Ji Yuan would be able to cultivate at least 10 times faster than anyone.

    As far as she knows, the only two immortals that have the Heavenly Dao on them are just the Great Beyond Goddess and the True Devil God as they have greater destinies than any of the first generation immortals.

    Even Destiny only had a lesser fragment of the Heavenly Dao.

    She was gasping with shock, "This Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is really a Beyond Divinity profound treasure and it can even be the Heavenly Dao itself. How can it even bestow a Greater Heavenly Dao as a reward? Don''t tell me that Ji Yuan now has the inheritances of the Great God Pangu?"

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was a Beyond Divinity profound treasure that was brought over by the Great God Pangu when he had reached True Divinity and he had ascended to the mysterious Great Beyond where the Great Beyond Goddess was.

    When he was back to the Celestial Realm, he had the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth descended into the Celestial Realm as a every 500 years great trial where the golden celestials could benefit greatly with their cultivations from entering it.

    All of a sudden, she could not hear anything from Ji Yuan anymore.

    She was sighing; she had never thought that the Greater Heavenly Dao would take effect so immediately and was now protecting him from her scrying means.

    -

    -

    -

    Back to the spatial space where Ji Yuan was with the Trial Spirit.

    He was now saying, "You must be the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and you are also the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that I have been searching for. My reasons for guessing so, are because you have confiscated my golden talismans and also because you seem to know about my past experiences in the other trials¡­"

    "If you have not taken my golden talismans or reveal to me that you know about my other trials. Also, you have called the other trial spirits as your friends, then I would never have guessed that you are the artefact soul."

    The Trial Spirit sighed, "That is because you are the most insolent and talkative cultivator that I have ever seen in all the tens of thousands in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I can''t believe that I actually have to give you the Lesser Heavenly Dao and the Greater Heavenly Dao this day."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "So, since I have found you. Can you teach me how may I able to obtain you?"

    The Trial Spiritughed jovially, "Fat hope!"

    "Are you male or female?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    The Trial Spirit frowned, "Why should I tell you? Begone from here!"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Maybe you have a thing with that 3 spirit old men. They like men, I think¡­"

    "I am a female!" The Trial Spirit said angrily.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Oh I see! But you shouldn''t have such a fierce temper you know. Because you are a maiden. My Xiang Li and Anyang are way better."

    The Trial Spirit: ¡­

    "You have taken Fairy Anyang from me and you dare to be disrespectful to me¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a soft sigh, however. "I think this may be thest time that I will be visiting the Spirit Divine Realm, am I right? Because the trial is over here. They won''t be another trial, right?"

    The voice of the Trial Spiritposed itself, "You are right. How did you know?"

    Ji Yuan said with a heavy sigh, "I''ve noticed that you have only opened the trials to the worlds where there are hotspots. If I am not wrong, then you are not simply an artefact soul to benefit the celestials but to the 3000 Great Worlds, am I right?"

    3000 Great Worlds is a figurative speech to mean the worlds atrge as there are uncountable number of heavenly realms in the middle and lower heavens.

    The Trial Spirit chuckled softly, "You are the first cultivator to have guessed my true purpose. So now that you know my true purpose, do you want to obtain me anymore?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "You are too important to be taken. It seems to me that even if I have found you, I don''t have the heart to take you even if I could do so. Right now, my Celestial Realm is facing a big threat from the Evil Cultivation Pce and also the Great Demon God. They are terrifying enemies that I have to defeat when I am back to the Celestial Realm."

    The Trial Spirit said, "I am aware of the evil presence that are in the Celestial Realm as well. The Great Demon God has sought to trap me in the Celestial Realm by blocking off the ess to the Immortal Realm."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "So we are on the same side?"

    The Trial Spirit said, "There is still a week left before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Why don''t we talk more if you can manage to resolve the SS Trial that will ur in the Dark Abyssal Realm?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "SS Trial? Dark Abyssal Realm?"

    "The Dark Abyssal or the Dark Abyssal Realm is a middle realm of the Great Abyssal Immortal Realm." The Trial Spirit exined.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Sure I can take a look there. But what if I can''t find it? Also, will that be a dangerous ce?"

    The Trial Spiritughed softly, "I can provide you with my spirit mark for you to find it. As for that ce, it is a most dangerous ce. Do you have the guts to go to that ce or are you a chicken?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I would be a chicken? Haha. You don''t have to trick me to go there. As for your challenge, I will ept it. But you must talk to me more before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to work on a n. It is because we have amon enemy."

    The Trial Spirit hummed softly, but it was a lot of gentle than at the start. "We shall see about this¡­"

    There was a bright re of light as Ji Yuan received the spirit mark from the Trial Spirit.

    "Now begone from here!"

 Chapter 970 Back To The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had appeared outside the trial portal, there were hundreds of celestials that were already there.

    He was probably thest to step out of the portal since he had a long talk with the Trial Spirit. This time round, he managed to avoid quarreling with the Trial Spirit and got his ''puny rewards''.

    Xiang Li said to him: Big Brother, how? You got nothing to show again this time round and your maidens won''t believe you.

    Anyang nodded: Your Trust Points with your maidens are probably -100 now due to your consistent failure to show them your rewards.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    As he stepped out of the portal, the hundreds of celestials numbering close to 1000 were pointing their fingers at Ji Yuan.

    "He is that Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I saw him in the colosseum¡­"

    "It isn''t easy to steal his divine swords even if we gang up on him¡­"

    "Are you trying to court your own death if you are thinking of trying that¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is the one that tempered himself with 81 purple lightning tribtion and survived¡­"

    "I have heard that he has also fought 3 great saint powerhouses and defeat them in a casual manner¡­."

    "I just want to see him up close here¡­"

    "I have heard that this Ji Yuan banged all 5 divine consorts in his city-state¡­"

    "I have heard that he had dual cultivated with Xu Yifei and she has recovered her cultivation realm due to his strong yang body¡­"

    "I have heard that he has copted with Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er in public while they are in the clothing shop¡­"

    "All the spiritas maidens in the tavern that this Ji Yuan was in, were all bedded by him.

    "I have heard that he had screwed the Goddess Ai Tina too¡­"

    "Not only the Goddess Ai Tina but the Great Oracle as well¡­"

    "Why do you think he is so popr with the spiritas maidens?"

    "I am curious to know what his rewards are¡­"

    JI Yuan did not know that there were so many celestials were in the trial.

    Actually, more than 1000 golden celestials had arrived since the trial had started but most of them were ying it safe and did not partake in the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

    But there was an ugly look on his face because he had sharp ears and he could hear some of the untruth rumors that were being whispered about him.

    What the heck?!

    When did I ever bang any of the spiritas maidens?

    Even though I really want but¡­ this is not the point. Who the heck have been spreading all these false rumors about me?!

    Ji Yuan was soon distracted from the rumors when he saw many familiar faces that were now approaching him.

    Mo Bei and Qin were walking together with a smiling look; it seemed to him that Maiden Qin Shuang had finally removed her depraved ve mark.

    Then there was Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng that were all smiling as they walked to him.

    Another group of maidens, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Yun Chi were walking in another direction to greet him.

    And there was a grumbly old man which was the White Sword Monarch who could be heard muttering unhappily, "This is a most depraved world!"

    By now, all the maidens that had been to the Spirit Divine Realm were naturally back in their celestial robes and not the spiritas spirit robes which only scantily covered them.

    Yang Mi and Chu Lixue purposely looked the other way away from the White Sword Monarch as they were afraid that their old man would start to rebuke them harshly.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at Feng Minyue and Yun Chi, the two maidens that he had not seen for a long time.

    Even though it was only for a short 7 days but he was actually in the Spirit Divine Realm for 70 days.

    He was really d that everyone was here except for Xiao Muhan.

    "Haha¡­ we are all back again." Ji Yuanughed jovially. "Brother Xiao Muhan won''t be joining us because he has decided to stay in the Spirit Divine Realm. I am sure that some of you have already known by now."

    All the maidens were giggling or smiling as they called out, "Ji Yuan!"

    This was a most beautiful sight that caused many of the nearby celestials to be greatly envious of Ji Yuan.

    "He must have copted with all these beautiful maidens¡­"

    "He probably uses some form of a trick to make them submit to him. Maybe a ve mark¡­"

    "Although this Ji Yuan is handsome but he isn''t as handsome as me¡­"

    Ji Yuan tried to ignore all the faraway background noises that echoed like buzzing flies in his ears as he grinned to everyone, "Haha. I miss all of you¡­"

    When he had said that, there were some slight flushes from Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Chu Lixue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng; it was because Ji Yuan had been busy ying with them for the past 5 days.

    Unfortunately for them, the days with Ji Yuan had been so short and he was constantly being interrupted by the 5 divine consorts that were looking for him to talk.

    The White Sword Monarch growled unhappily, "I''ve always known that this Xiao Muhan is nothing but a lecherous cultivator."

    Ji Yuan grinned to his old man, "Everyone has a right to live their preferred lifestyle. He has told me that he wants me have a harem in the Spirit Divine Realm because he is super fertile there and maybe in the future, one of his descendants would be able to bang a divine consort. Haha¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch had suddenly punched his face as he snorted with his hoarse voice, "That Xiao Muhan may be a lecherous fool but don''t tell me that your intelligence is the same as him? Yang Mi has told me about him. That Maiden Flower Ju is a ranked noble and Xiao Muhan can''t get himself a harem even if he wants to. The spiritasws are strict and this Xiao Muhan is a lousy fighter¡­."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly rubbing his chin as he weakly said, "I didn''t think of this. Maybe he really depending on his future descendant to bang a divine consort¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch interrupted him coldly, "Maybe his descendant will be a daughter instead and she would be a divine consort. Who bang who, is still hard to say in the future."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Old man, your words are a little too ugly. I think you have a foul mood today? Don''t tell me that you have a bad experience while you are in the Spirit Divine Realm?

    Actually, Ji Yuan was wrong; the White Sword Monarch actually had a good time while he was in the Spirit Divine Realm with a spiritas maiden by the name of Maiden Xiaotian. And he was quite sad to leave the Spirit Divine Realm too.

    The White Sword Monarch had suddenly grinned to him, "Maybe next time, we shoulde back to grab Xiao Muhan back to the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, I don''t know if this is possible¡­"

    He was suddenly interrupted by the jovial chatters of his maidens as they asked him curiously, "Ji Yuan, what did you gain for your trial reward?"

    Ling Feiyue warned him, "You have better be honest with us this time or else, I won''t let you touch any of us in the future."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I will castrate you if you don''t tell us!" Shui Xisi giggled as she warned him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know. It isn''t because I don''t want to share with anyone of you about my trial rewards. But among you, there may be a spy from the Evil Cultivation Pce. Even if there is no spy but what if you got captured by an enemy and through you, the enemy may discover my trial reward?"

    Little Princess immediately gave Ji Yuan a hard kick, "Ji Yuan! Are you saying I am a spy?"

    Yun Chi had suddenly punched him on his chest and Ji Yuan had turned ashen; it was really painful even if he could endure most pains.

    "I think he is talking about me instead," Yun Chi hummed coldly.

    "Ji Yuan is simply courting his own death!"

    Even Mo Bei was grumbling unhappily, "Junior Ji Yuan, how can you hide your rewards from us?! It isn''t why I am not helping you but this is really too much!"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I am only kidding. Can we go elsewhere before we talk?"

    Then heughed jovially, "Also, I know the way to the next SS Trial too. Haha¡­"

    Everyone started to stare at him with disbelief.

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking: Xiang Li and Anyang. How? I can''t show them my rewards. I feel that I am leading them to a quiet ce for me to die in an ugly manner¡­

    Xiang Li was sobbing: I am more concern with Maiden Ling Feiyue''s threat not to have you touching any of the maidens if you don''t show them your rewards.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, do you know that I am about to die? This should be the least of your concerns.

    Anyang however was giggling: Maybe Maiden Ling Feiyue is a better owner for me instead.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan seemed to jump as he remembered something, "Oh crap! I''ve just remember something important!"

    This startled all the maidens, including Mo Bei and the White Sword Monarch.

    "What is it?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I have forgotten to ask the Trial Spirit to return my 3 golden talismans back to me. I am incurred heavy losses for this trial¡­"

    Everyone: ¡­

    Everyone was thinking: Is this even real to begin with¡­

    Yun Chi was suddenly smiling lovingly to Ji Yuan as she pressed her fingers on his chest, "You have better be honest with uster and stop thinking of anything else to distract us. I am promise you that my wrath is not going to be nice for you."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly, "I really dare not¡­"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly at Ji Yuan, "I believe that you may have some ounting to do as well."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Yun Chi was naturally referring to Destiny; Bai Qianfeng had sent her a secret transmission informing her that she had seen the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny of the Chaos Race while she was in the Spirit Divine Realm and that she had even pledged herself to Ji Yuan!

    The White Sword Monarch was looking at Yun Chi weirdly; he had suspected that Yun Chi may not be what she seemed for a long time now. Maybe she was even the Death God Mingwang¡­ the problem was, he had no proof and their profound animus were different.

    If she was not the Death God Mingwang then why were Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and his daughter Chu Lixue so deferent toward her? And how did she obtain so many golden talismans?

    He may be an old fool but he was not a real fool.

 Chapter 971 The Goddess Tear

    ?

    A lone enchanting maiden from afar had quietly watched Ji Yuan and his group walked away from the trial portal.

    She was actually Hua Yunzi and she had her hand on her belly.

    Quietly she muttered, "Farewell, Ji Yuan¡­."

    With that, she had turned her beautiful form around as she tiptoed away while hundreds of golden celestials were still specting about Ji Yuan and watching him.

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan was alone with his maidens, the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei and Maiden Qin Shuang, he began to recount to them about his experiences in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Finally, he told them that he got the Lesser Heavenly Dao and the Greater Heavenly Dao as his rewards.

    This astonished Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi who immediately recognized how great a reward that the Lesser Heavenly Dao and the Great Heavenly Dao truly is.

    Even the White Sword Monarch and Mo Bei were also astonished. They had heard of it even though they had never encountered anyone having this reward before; it was said that the ancient sages in the past were able to glimpse at the Lesser Heavenly Dao through their astonishing high cultivation as they merged together with the heavens.

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "Are you all sure that Ji Yuan isn''t trying to hoodwink us with this Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao nonsense?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I am afraid that Ji Yuan is incapable of making up this story. His cultivation knowledge is limited."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck? My cultivation knowledge is limited? Listen Yun Chi, I have banged you so I am superior in cultivation than you¡­

    Xiang Li giggled softly to him in his soul sea: Big Brother, if you are not a chicken, why don''t you say it aloud? Aren''t you the alpha of the alphas?

    Anyang suggested with a soft chuckle: Maybe our lord is afraid that Maiden Yun Chi will ughter him instead and this will be a great loss of his face in front of his other maidens.

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Xiang Li and Anyang.

    Bai Qianfeng gasped softly, "I can''t believe that Ji Yuan will actually have such a fruitful fortuitous encounter in this trial¡­ Dao Fruit, 81 purple lightning tribtion, Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao. This is quite hard to believe¡­."

    Shui Xisi was smiling bitterly, "Forget about the Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao. I find it even harder to believe that he has a talking Divine Tree and yet Ji Yuan has no proof to show us that. Maybe he just good in making his stories nowadays and he just wants to look awesome in front of us."

    She actually believed the part about the 81 purple lightning tribtion and the Dao Fruit as she was there. In fact, she was the one that had fed Ji Yuan the Dao Fruit.

    Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, the White Sword Monarch, Feng Minyue, Bai Qianfeng and Little Princess who had witnessed the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower had also no doubt about it.

    Mo Bei was sighed heavily, "If I know that there is a Dao Fruit for the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower, I would have joined as well¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly to him, "Or maybe you would die after you have consumed the wrong Dao Fruit."

    Mo Baiughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ maybe not¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to ask Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, "What does the Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao do anyway? I don''t feel any different."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "You will soon know fast enough. I must admit that I have picked the right dao partner now."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Previously, you think that I am the wrong dao partner instead?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "Naturally it is."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­.

    "Then I have to thank my Lesser and Heavenly Dao for this."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, not correcting him. She was actually not referring to the Lesser and the Greater Heavenly Dao but the fact that he is the incarnate of the True Devil God.

    When Bai Qianfeng had told her about this, she must admit that she was thoroughly shocked; it was because a long time ago, the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess were the very first immortals to have reached Beyond Divinity.

    However, the Dark Dao of the True Devil God had since fallen and only the Divine Dao of the Great Beyond Goddess is now left to represent the Six Immortal Realms.

    However, she was looking a little perplexed; it was because legends said that the Great Beyond Goddess had killed the True Devil God as he was the dark scourge of the Six Immortal Realms. In the Goddess Star Pce, she had seen the triumphs of the Great Beyond Goddess over the True Devil God.

    This is actually a great twist that Ji Yuan is actually the True Devil God¡­

    If so, maybe their enemy may even be the Great Beyond Goddess in the future.

    Yun Chi did not fear retributions from the Great Beyond Goddess as she was a Dark Immortal herself. Moreover, she was also a half-step true divinity herself.

    While the Great Beyond Goddess may be a Beyond Divinity entity, it was well known to the immortals that she could not manifest easily to the other 5 Immortal Realms as she was in a much higher ne of existence in the Great Beyond.

    To put it simply, while the Great Beyond is considered to be 1 of the 6 Immortal realms, there actually is the Lower Great Beyond and the Upper Great Beyond. And the Great Beyond Goddess resides in the Upper Great Beyond.

    Either way, an immortal need to be a True Divinity in order to go to the Great Beyond which is typically the Lower Great Beyond and they would not get to see the Great Beyond Goddess at all.

    The Great Beyond Goddess is an unimaginable Beyond Divinity existence that the many half-step True Divinities and True Divinities dare not easily offend but at the same time because the Great Beyond Goddess is at a higher ne of existence than the 5 immortal realms, the immortals did not fear her that much.

    Before the Great Beyond Goddess has departed to the Upper Great Beyond, she has left beyond the Goddess Tear as a ray of hope for the weak cultivators.

    This was probably the only restriction that the immortals of the 5 other immortal divine realms feared that may screw up their ns.

    There was once a powerful Demon Lord of the Deste Divine Realm by the name of the Great Deste Demon God and he had actually reached True Divinity. But he was screwed by the Goddess Tear not once but several times and he was eventually killed.

    He did not believe in the power of the Goddess Tear and he had actually killed his opponent with the Goddess Tear at a price to his cultivation.

    Then several yearster, he had met another opponent with the Goddess Tear. Again, he had killed his opponent and had paid the price for it.

    But he still refused to believe in the legend of the Goddess Tear and continued to oppress the demonic and deste races around him.

    Eventually many yearster, another opponent with the Goddess Tear had appeared and dealt him a fatal blow. Although this opponent was killed but the Goddess Tear could not be killed.

    And the Goddess Tear had appeared again and again until he was killed, like a lingering curse that was upon him.

    That was the reason why the Great Demon God Hong Meng was cautious with anyone that had the Goddess Tear.

    It is because the Goddess Tear is said to be able to grant a wish and it is especially potent when the blood of the dying owner is also added to it.

    Many dark schemes in the Deste Divine Realm were actually undone by the Goddess Tear in the past.

    Yun Chi was now wondering if Ji Yuan had been using the Goddess Tear to make his fortuitous encounters?

    While Yun Chi was still in her thoughts, Ji Yuan had suddenly said to his group and he wasughing jovially, "Follow me. I shall lead you to the next SS Trial. Haha."

    Shui Xisi asked him curiously, "You really know the way to the next SS Trial? How do you know about it in the first ce?"

    The rest of the group was all looking curiously at Ji Yuan for an answer.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, actually the Trial Spirit has told me about it. Haha!"

    Ling Feiyue asked with great disbelief, "Why should the Trial Spirit tells you about it? Is the Trial Spirit trying to kill you?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly rubbing his chin and looking at Ling Feiyue, "Wait! I haven''t considered the fact that the Trial Spirit is trying to kill me by leading me there. Let me think if we should go there or not¡­"

 Chapter 972 The Entropy Realm (1)

    ?

    The Entropy Realm.

    At the Pir of Chaos, the tallest mountain in the Entropy Realm.

    Thousands of the elite Chaos Immortals were having a heated meeting there and they were not there to admire the scenery of their most sacred mountain.

    In fact, they had been here for the past 3 months and all negiotations had now failed.

    3 months to these immortals were only a short period of time actually.

    This meeting was hosted by the 12 main Chaos ns to select the new Chaos Emperor Sovereign.

    Among the 12 main Chaos n, they were represented by 8 peaked 9th realm immortals and 4 half-step True Divinities.

    Although there was the 12 main Chaos ns to elect the new Chaos Emperor Sovereign but the choices were actually limited to the 4 main Chaos ns with the half-step True Divinities.

    It was because the disparity between a peaked 9th realm immortal and a half-step 10th realm immortal was too vast.

    It takes too long a time to cultivate to an upper 9th realm immortal and only the most talented and blessed immortal under the heavens could do so.

    And it is even harder to cultivate to be a peaked 9th realm immortal and those that did are the most powerful immortals in the Entropy Realm with the strongest bloodline.

    That was when even the most powerful immortals would meet a dead end in their cultivation and they needed plenty of luck, cultivation methods and huge resources in order to cross the near impossible boundary to be a half-step 10th realm immortal.

    One may think that a half-step 10th realm immortal is close to a mortal-step 10th realm immortal and would soon be a True Divinity at the initial lower level.

    Not so!

    They are actually no closer to bing a True Divinity.

    It is actually 10 times harder for the half-step True Divinities to be a True Divinity!

    And most the most powerful of the half-step True Divinitiesck the destiny of the heavens to break their cocoon to transform into True Divinities.

    This is especially true when time had passed as more and more of the emperor profound treasures and true divinity profound treasures are either taken or consumed for cultivation.

    Even in the Immortal Entropy Realm, an immortal emperor or true divinity profound artefact would only descend once every 10 000 years from the Great Beyond. Although this may not sound like a long time but it is actually 100 000 years in the lower realm due to the differences in time.

    To the immortals of the Entropy Realm, a big fight will usually ur every time an immortal emperor or a true divinity profound artefact would descend in the Entropy Realm.

    An immortal emperor profound artefact is actually quitemon ce among the elite immortals but most of it are actually not the superior ss or the naturally descended emperor profound artefact. Rather, most are actually nurtured over tens of thousands with powerful immortal arrays to be an emperor profound artefact, at a terrible and unimaginable cost of course.

    As for true divinity profound artefact or deity ss profound artefact, it cannot be nurtured or obtained.

    That is the reason why many of the elite immortals have only one goal when they could reach the True Divinity realm and that is to go to the Great Beyond to find their fortuitous encounters. Maybe with some luck, they could even find a Beyond Divinity profound artefact.

    It is said that the Great Beyond Goddess allows the True Divinities from the other 5 immortal realms toe to the Great Beyond once every 10 000 years to take the True Divinity Trial there.

    To be exact, it is actually from the other 4 immortal realms since there is a curse that is upon the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm that seems to prevent them from ever attaining the half-step 10th immortal positioning.

    In fact, it is the Great Beyond Goddess that has forbidden the birth of any immortal profound artefacts from the Great Beyond to the Great Abyssal Realm and she is the one that has cursed the Great Abyssal Realm.

    The Chaos Race was naturally happy about it since the Abyssals had in the past invaded the Entropy Realm.

    In the past, the Abyssals had plenty of powerful peaked 9th realms, half-step True Divinities and even True Divinities.

    But the invasion had suddenly ended when all the half-step True Divinities and True Divinities were all mysteriously killed.

    And even their First Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny was also killed, along with an uncountable number of the most powerful Chaos Race.

    To this day, a great enmity existed between the Chaos Race and the Abyssals, with the two sides often waging small scale invasions against each other.

    Although the Chaos Race may appear to be in a superior position but their losses are actually quite severe. It is because most of the Chaos Race are humanoid god beasts and they need thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years to reproduce. The stronger their god beast blood line is, the longer that they need to reproduce.

    Also, unlike the other immortal realms which can depend on the ascended immortals to increase their poption, the Chaos Race have no such luxury.

    Although the various god beasts from the lower heavenly realms could still ascend to the immortal realm, it is almost never the Entropy Realm because God Beasts that could cultivate to humanoid form are too rare.

    Also, while god beasts are intelligent and sometimes even powerful rulers such as in the Deste Immortal Realm but they are not the same as the humanoid god beasts of the Chaos Race who preferred to remain in their humanoid forms most of the time. Most of the god beasts from the other immortal realms cannot take the humanoid forms at all.

    But of course, the most important reason of all is that the Chaos Race only have one type of god beast form and it is the dragon form.

    Back to the heated meeting, angry shouts could be heard thundering across the mountain terraces where thousands of the Chaos Race were sitting.

    A handsome man had suddenly stood up and thundered, "As who shall be the new Chaos Emperor Sovereign, we only need to know the orientation of the 12 major chaos ns. It is this simple. But I would say that we need a strong Chaos Emperor Sovereign tobat the threats of the Abyssals and even the other immortal realms. Therefore, we only have 4 candidates to choose from."

    When this handsome man had spoken, the noise had quickly died down.

    It was because he was the Profound Heaven Sovereign, 1 of the 4 half-step True Divinity in this ce. Therefore, what he had just said naturally carried a lot of weight.

    His sharp eyes had naturally turned to look at the Sacred Fire Sovereign, the Thunderbolt Sovereign and the Seven Purple Sovereign.

    The Sacred Fire Sovereign was a beard man with a fierce look and he was grinning, "I totally agree with the Profound Heaven Sovereign on this."

    "It seems that a fight today is inevitable between the 4 half-step True Divinities if we can''t resolve it peacefully today." The Thunderbolt Sovereign smirked coldly.

    "Indeed, indeed." The Seven Purple Sovereign smiled enchantingly; she was the only maiden among the 4 half-step True Divinities.

    The Antimony Sovereign, who was a middle age man hummed coldly, "We are supposed to be the 12 major chaos ns. When did it be just the 4 major chaos n?"

    The other 7 Sovereigns were also muttering in agreement with him!

    The Profound Heaven Sovereign hummed coldly, "If it isn''t for the fact that the First Chaos Empress Sovereign hade from your Antimony n, I would have lifted my hand against you. For those that are weak, have no right. It seems that you are unhappy with me being the Chaos Emperor Sovereign?"

    The Antimony Sovereignughed coldly, "I am afraid that you are not as worthy as the 3 other Sovereigns!"

    "Outrageous!" The Profound Heaven Sovereign roared angrily. "Are you challenging me?"

    The Antimony Sovereign refused to be cowered by him. No matter what, he was still a peaked 9th immortal and he had his pride.

    "If I can defeat you, then I can be Chaos Emperor Sovereign?"

    The Profound Heaven Sovereign smirked coldly, "If you can defeat me, naturally you can be a candidate for the new Chaos Emperor Sovereign and I will not contest anymore. That is, if you are able to defeat me."

    The other 7 Sovereigns were all saying to the Antimony Sovereign, "We will support your candidacy as the new Chaos Emperor Sovereign if you are able to defeat the Profound Heaven Sovereign."

    The Antimony Sovereign actually saw little chance of defeating the Profound Heaven Sovereign and he had immediately regretted his recklessness.

    "You have the guts to talk loudly but no guts to face me with your bold words?" The Profound Heaven Sovereign mocked coldly.

    This broke thest straw for the Antimony Sovereign as he floated above the tform, "Who says I dare not fight you?"

    The Profound Heaven Sovereignughed coldly as he levitated to the height of the Antimony to meet his challenge. "You are courageous indeed."

    He was determined to teach this Antimony Sovereign a lesson that he would not forget.

    All the Sovereigns and the thousands of immortals cheered thunderously for they were about to witness a fight between a peaked 9th realm immortal and a half-step 10th realm True Divinity.

    The ones that cheered the loudest were naturally from the Profound Heaven n and they were cheering for the victory of their Profound Heaven Sovereign.

    The Antimony Sovereign had an ugly look because he knows that it would be ugly to him if he loses.

    The Profound Heaven Sovereign smiled coldly, "I can give you the first move¡­."

    As he had said that, there was a sudden disturbance in the space between them and a dark cloak maiden had suddenly appeared in their midst.

    Her appearance startled everyone, including the Profound Heaven Sovereign and the Antimony Sovereign.

    The most startled was naturally this dark cloak maiden herself and she was naturally Destiny who had disguised herself; she had thought of secretly retrieving her profound treasures that she had sealed away in the past here in the most sacred mountain of the Chaos Race.

    But she had never thought that there would be thousands of immortals in this ce!

    Didn''t she say in the past that this sacred mountain is off limit except for herself?

    She muttered softly, "Mm, this is a little awkward¡­"

    The Profound Heaven Sovereign was angry that his fight would be disturbed so he angrily raised his fists to oust this intruder.

    As he raised his fists to attack the dark cloaked maiden, the dark cloaked maiden had disyed her half-step True Divinity profound aura and had sent the Profound Heaven Sovereign to crash down mightily down to the tform below!

    This shocked all the immortals and Sovereigns¡­

    The most stunned was the Antimony Sovereign and he did not know whether he should attack this intruder or not. But it made him secretly happy that the Profound Heaven Sovereign was humiliated in this manner.

 Chapter 973 The Entropy Realm (2)

    ?

    When the Profound Heaven Sovereign was sent crashing into the ground with just one blow, he was shocked thoroughly and felt humiliated. Although he was not seriously injured as he had a god beasty body but the blow to his pride was ugly to his face as he got nailed down onto the ground with just a blow.

    The thousands of immortals were all gasping in bewilderment.

    Only one move!

    Another half-step True Divinity?

    Is she an Abyssal? Or an immortal from another immortal realm?

    They could all sense that this dark cloaked maiden was only at the half-step True Divinity which was the same as the Profound Heaven Sovereign.

    It was impossible for the Profound Heaven Sovereign to be sent crashing down so fiercely with only 1 move.

    Below the Profound Heaven Sovereign was trembling as he disyed his divine sword and he was shouting angrily, "How dare you interfere in my fight. How dare you touch me!"

    He was ugly with a ck face and red with anger.

    With that, he had mustered all his profound strength to summon threerge profound circles; these 3rge profound circles were able to unleash three powerful True Divinity profound attacks at this intruder.

    In order to use his ultimate profound attack at the True Divinity level, he had to burn his essence but he did not dare anymore; he just wanted to kill this fly and to avenge his pride.

    Also, his opponent was also a half-step True Divinity so he did not want to be careless.

    Destiny reacted very fast and she had raised her long ck rod of destiny and immediately a powerful profound force exploded over the Profound Heaven Sovereign, immediately knocking him t and cancelling the 3rge profound circles.

    She did not even give him the chance toplete toplete his profound force gathering.

    But what amazed all the immortals were that she could actually muster such a startling level of profound power in such a short time and could even cancel a True Divinity profound art.

    One must know that once a True Divinity profound art is produced, a counter force will also be produced around the immortal cultivator. This alone would negate most of the weaker profound attacks that are directed at the immortal cultivator!

    That means that the dark cloak maiden''s profound might was not only faster but stronger than the Profound Heaven Sovereign!

    The impact was so astonishing that the entire tform seemed to sink and even the Profound Heaven Sovereign was sunk 3 feet into the ground without any resistance!

    He had simply coughed out blood and was tten hard into the ground!

    Again, this stunned all the immortals; this was too exaggerating; it was impossible for the Profound Heaven Sovereign not to withstand a range profound attack since they were both half-step True Divinities.

    Also, the profound power of this mysterious dark cloaked maiden was truly terrifying and even the hearts of the other 3 half-step True Divinities were beginning to wonder if they would be able to fight her¡­

    The Antimony Sovereign on the other hand was trembling but it was not fear; it was because he had recognized the ck rod as a True Divinity weapon of the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny.

    How did this ck cloaked maiden possess this ck rod?

    He tried to peek at her but he could only see her silver hair.

    Silver hair?

    Is she their Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny?

    But no, her profound signature is different¡­

    He did not know that Destiny has the ability to change her profound signature whenever she likes and she had used it to conceal herself while she secretly observes the cultivators thate to her Great Oracle Gate.

    The Profound Heaven Sovereign was now truly angry as he turned purple with seething rage; he shook off his injuries and had suddenly transformed into a gigantic blue dragon god beast!

    He roared with seething rage as he transformed himself, "You are simply courting your own death! Know that I am the Profound Heaven Sovereign, the future Chaos Emperor Sovereign of the Entropy Realm! Today, I shall ravage you and toy with you for an eternity! I shall make you into my depraved harlot for an eternity! This is the price of offending me!"

    "Now face my great wrath!!!"

    This was not an empty threat.

    In that instant, the profound strength of the Profound Heaven Sovereign had broken into the limits of the lower True Divinity and a fierce profound aura apanied him as he flew to rip this mysterious ck cloak maiden apart.

    The massive form of this blue dragon god beast that was even crackling with oppressive sparks of lightning awed all the immortals as they quickly erected powerful shields around them.

    Even the other 3 half-step True Divinities were forced to admit that the true body form of the Profound Heaven Sovereign was startling and a lot more powerful than they had thought to be.

    Even the Antimony Sovereign was forced to scurry away as the dragon profound aura of the Profound Heaven Sovereign was simply too oppressing!

    Destiny disyed her profound aura to her fullest and an even more oppressive divine light from her ck rod exploded thunderously down onto the gigantic blue dragon and sent it crashing down like a speeding meteor on the ground, causing the entire tform to shake like an earthquake even though the entire tform was protected by defensive immortal arrays.

    This divine light strike was her unique profound art the Chaos Heaven Light and multi-color lights could be seen apanying the main divine light when she was using it.

    As it was disyed, she muttered. "Mm¡­ you talk too much¡­"

    Just like this, all the immortals could sense that the Profound Heaven Sovereign was knocked out cold due to his severe injuries and the profound aura around him had also disappeared.

    All the immortals and Sovereigns were dumbfounded that a True Divinity God Beast Profound Heaven Sovereign was unable to even put a fight in front of this ck cloak maiden.

    They were even more dumbfounded when the disy of the profound aura of this dark cloak maiden had caused her hood to be pulled behind and they could see her snowy white exquisite peerless features that revealed her as their Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny.

    By now, several immortals had already noticed the ck rod that was in her hand.

    "It is really the Chaos Empress Sovereign¡­ she is still alive?!"

    There were hot tears from the Antimony Sovereign as he stammered, "Your Empress Sovereign, is that really you? Our Antimony n has a hope now!"

    Destiny was forced to admit and she was awkward, "Aye, it is me. How have you been Bei Jiangshan?"

    She had addressed the Antimony Sovereign by his real name.

    In normal circumstances, it was taboo to mention the name of the Antimony Sovereign directly but the Antimony Sovereign did not mind at all because he was appointed by Destiny to be the Sovereign of the Antimony n, which was also Destiny''s n of origin.

    The Antimony Sovereign was grinning with happiness, "It is really our Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny¡­ wee back¡­"

    Destiny actually had no intention ofing back as the Chaos Empress Sovereign as she wanted to join Ji Yuan in the Celestial Realm. She had only wanted toe back briefly to cultivate her True Divinity boundary as the lower realm could not support her cultivation.

    Also, she had hidden many profound treasures in the Pir of Chaos, the tallest and most sacred mountain of the Chaos Race. This ce was her personal domain.

    But she had never thought that today these immortals would use her sacred mountain as a meeting ce and she had barged at the wrong timing.

    Destiny was toozy to figure out how long she had been away; she had indeed been away for a very long time in the Spirit Divine Realm but it may be a short time for the immortals since a thousand years here is equaled to ten thousand years in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Although there were many immortals that did not recognize the Chaos Empress Sovereign but when she had disyed her Chaos Heaven Light, the older immortals were able to recognize that to be Destiny''s signature profound art.

    Also, Destiny''s profound signature had reverted to her true self when she was forced to disy her full profound strength.

    "Who is she?"

    "Are you an idiot! You young immortals have never seen our First Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny before! This is she!" An old Sovereign below said and he was weeping hot tears uncontroble.

    "She is really our Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny?!"

    "The Profound Heaven Sovereign didn''t even know that he is fighting against the Chaos Empress Sovereign herself¡­"

    "He is going to be in a shock when he wakes up¡­"

    Many of the Sovereigns and Chaos Lords had also recognized their First Chaos Empress Sovereign and they were all trembling with joy and worship.

    It was especially so for the many immortal elders from the Antimony n.

    When all the immortals saw that it was their Chaos Empress Sovereign, they immediately bowed onto the ground in great deference and this included the other 3 half-step Divinities.

    With the appearance of the First Chaos Empress Sovereign, the other 3 half-step True Divinity dared not contest for the position of the Chaos Emperor Sovereign any longer; It is because Destiny is the appointed ruler of the Entropy Realm and her bloodline is also the strongest.

    The Antimony Sovereign flew immediately to Destiny and he was in tears but he was not ashamed at all, "Your Empress Sovereign, you are finally back. Where have you been all these years? I''ve thought that I won''t be seeing you anymore¡­"

    Not only the Antimony Sovereign but the rest of the immortals were also curious to know where their Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny had been all these years.

    Destiny looked a little awkward as shemely said, "I am sorry for being away for so long. It is just that I have found a way for me to be a True Divinity and that is why I am away. In fact, I am already at the True Divinity boundary now. It is just that I need to consolidate my foundation first."

    This was half the truth but it would do for Destiny; she immediately praised herself for able to cook up an excuse so quickly. She was quite proud of being an expert chatan.

    All the immortals were stunned and were bbergasted.

    "True Divinity!"

    "The Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny is now a True Divinity?"

    "Does it mean that our immortal realm is now the strongest if our Chaos Empress Sovereign transforms to her true body form?"

    It is extremely hard for the Chaos Race to cultivate to True Divinity as they have a different form of cultivation than the rest of the other immortal realms and they have to cultivate their body as well.

    The Antimony Sovereign was now grinning to Destiny, "Now that Your Empress Sovereign is back, you can consider your marriage too. After all, you need a bloodline to continue after you."

    Destiny: ¡­

    That was one of the reasons why she had chosen not to return to the Entropy Realm¡­

    She was now thinking like Ji Yuan: Mm, I need to fake my death somehow or how can I wriggle out of this?

    When the Antimony Sovereign saw that Destiny did not reply to him, he asked curiously. "May I know what is the first divine instruction from Your Empress Sovereign?"

    Destiny smiled awkwardly, "Do you have any good spirit tea?"

    The Antimony Sovereign: ???

 Chapter 974 Prelude To The SS Abyssal Trial

    ?

    It took Ji Yuan and his group only 1 day to find the next SS Trial.

    When they had arrived there, this SS Trial was already opened and there was a ck stele in the ce.

    Ling Feiyue was astonished as she turned to say to Ji Yuan, "You have really led us to the next SS trial portal. This isn''t luck, right?"

    She was not the only ones that were astonished by it.

    Ji Yuan grinned to everyone, "I did say that the Trial Spirit has told me the location of the next SS Trial, right? Haha."

    Mo Bei muttered weakly as he shrugged his shoulder, "I still think that this is pure luck."

    The White Sword Monarch said in his old voice, "I am not going for any trial especially a SS Trial. Why don''t you check the ck stele with your divine sense and see if you have the courage to enter this SS Trial instead?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "This is actually my intention, haha!"

    Little Princess smiled wryly, "I think Ji Yuan will enter this trial no matter how difficult it is. Why don''t we bet on it?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said weakly, "I am not a young and foolish cultivator. Why should I do that for?"

    Bai Qianfeng giggled as she looked at Yun Chi, Lu Jiangsu, Chu Lixue and Zhi Jiugong. "Rubbish. You just jump into all the SS Trial. All these trials are a trap for the greedy cultivators and the Trial Spirit only tell you the rules once you are inside the trial portal. Regardless if you are a young and foolish cultivator or not, you just enter the trial portal anyway."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Well, this may well be thest trial in the final level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I don''t want to wait for another 500 years."

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly, "He probably can''t find any high level trial in the Deste Celestial Fraternity for him to do. Let him be as long as he don''t die."

    Ji Yuanughed, "My Feiyue is the most understanding maiden. Hahaha¡­"

    When he had said that, there were envious looks from Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Feng Minyue, Zhi Jiugong and Yun Chi were more nonchnt.

    Ji Yuan had already walked to the ck stele and he was touching the ck stele to read the ck stele with his divine sense.

    As he did so, the others had also immediately followed suit.

    As he focused his divine sense with his hand on the ck stele, he saw that it was indeed an SS Trial Portal and the requirement to enter this portal was 1000 golden celestials.

    This startled Ji Yuan; this was slightly more than 3 times the required number of golden celestials to open this trial portal.

    And he saw that it had already been opened.

    He continued to read on.

    The ck stele read: This portal is the entrance of to the Dark Abyssal. Caution must be taken should you decide to step into the portal. You will be allowed to use the golden talisman to escape. This trial is the Abyssal Trial and is also a ughter trial.

    Time remaining: 4 days here and 40 days in the Dark Abyssal.

    JI Yuan was surprised that the trial information would actually be written in this ck stele.

    Bai Qianfeng turned to Ji Yuan and said quietly, "The Abyssals are not easy to deal with and they are even more fearsome than the Demonic Race. They cultivate body and infernal energies. I suspect that their world will be rich in infernal energies and not spiritual energies. If you go there, it would be hard for you to regain your profound strength."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu smiled dovely at Ji Yuan, "Maybe that is why the trial description is revealed openly as a warning. If we go in there, maybe we would even die without knowing why."

    "This is a most dangerous trial," Feng Minyue said quietly. "I suggest that we skip this trial."

    The White Sword Monarch nodded, "I got a feeling that there aren''t 1000 golden celestials that are willing to enter in the first ce. They just probably touch the ck stele and go off to other ces."

    Mo Bei said, "I have to agree with the White Sword Monarch on this. Without spiritual energies, how the heck are we even going to regain our profound strength and even recover from our injuries?"

    "Natural healing," Ji Yuan grinned.

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Everyone: ...

    Mo Bei frowned, "Junior Ji Yuan, are you courting your own death? Natural healing?! You can still joke at a time like this."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "And also, we can use profound pills too for our healing too."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "When did you be smart?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I am always smart. Haha¡­"

    Mo Bei growled, "You are only smart when you are not supposed to be smart."

    This caused a soft chuckle from Qin Shuang and the other maidens.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He decided to ignore Mo Bei and grinned to the rest of the group, "It is a mere 40 days. Thest SS Trial inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. You should alle with me. I can''t bang any maidens in there since I have no interest in any Abyssals. Haha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue weakly said, "You never know¡­ even the Goddess Destiny have dered that she wants to follow you and all the other divine consorts have also pledged their undying love for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I have already exined for a full day that I didn''t bang anyone in the Spirit Divine Realm and only Xiao Muhan did. Howe no one believes me?!

    If I can have the will not to bang anyone in the Spirit Divine Realm, I can do the same as in the Dark Abyssal. Moreover, I have no interest in any Abyssals, frank speaking.

    Ji Yuanughed as he ignored Ling Feiyue, "Hahaha¡­ so who''s going with me to the Dark Abyssal?"

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu giggled, "In ourst trial, our clothes got transformed. Do you think that this trial will transform us into Abyssals?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Maybe."

    "I don''t want to be turned into an ugly Abyssal," Shui Xisi gasped with shock. "So I am not going."

    "Sisi, you are not going with me?" Ji Yuan looked shocked. "You are not game toe with me?"

    Shui Xisi giggled, "I am afraid that this time I have to disappoint you."

    Ji Yuan was shocked; this was the very first time that Sisi had rejected him! And he was quite heartbroken.

    He stammered to the rest of his group, "Erm, anyone else wants to go with me? Maybe you won''t be turned into an Abyssal?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled at Ji Yuan, "I am not taking the chance of being transformed into an Abyssal. Yuck."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Little Princess smiled, "Maybe you should go alone. You don''t want us to be green by anyone in the trial, do you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yang Mi smiled, "Brother Ji Yuan, I am afraid my cultivation is too low for a SS Trial."

    "Same here." Yu Jingjing quickly exined as well.

    They had found the perfect excuse not to go with Ji Yuan.

    Feng Minyue said gently to Ji Yuan, "Maybe you want to consider giving up on this trial and stay here instead? After all, the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is about to end."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    No one seems to want to go?

    Then he started to grin at Mo Bei, the White Sword Monarch and Qin Shuang, "Why don''t we go and see what the Dark Abyssal is like?"

    The White Sword Monarch stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "You just want to go exploring, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I promise the Trial Spirit that I''d go in there."

    Mo Bei cut in, "I think this little rascal is really taking every opportunity to go sightseeing on his own. This is a SS Trial and not a weak trial. You can die in there. Moreover, you will be going to the Dark Abyssal. Once you have appeared in that realm, do you think you won''t attract any attention?"

    "Ji Yuan," Bai Qianfeng nodded to agree with Mo Bei. "The Abyssals are a murderous lot and theyvished on blood to feed their infernal energies. That is why they are able to cultivate faster than any others. If it is not for the Great Beyond Goddess that curses them, the Six Immortal Realms would be overrun by the high level Abyssals a long time ago. You should stay here instead."

    But Ji Yuan said firmly instead, "My mind is made up. I will go into the Dark Abyssal alone."

    Everyone: ¡­

    The reason why Ji Yuan was firm, was because he had epted the challenge of the Artefact Spirit of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and also because he hoped that he could form an alliance with the Artefact Spirit. In this way, maybe Jiajia would be so proud of him.

    And of course, he was also quite curious what sort of a ce was the Dark Abyssal.

    The White Sword Monarch frowned unhappily, "This rascal is really such a daredevil. I actually regret raising him. Maybe my two daughters would soon be widows instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yang Mi and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both looking awkward when their old man had suddenly tease them.

    Ji Yuan said weakly as he looked at his maidens, "Don''t worry. The person that can kill me has not yet been born yet¡­"

    Yang Mi giggled as she interrupted Ji Yuan, "Weird. Way back in the Spirit Divine Realm, you had said that you are number 2 under the heavens and number 1 has not been born yet. But you got defeated instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I was just careless. I am sure that I can defeat Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao now¡­"

    Yun Chi interrupted him with a cold chuckle, "Dream on."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You don''t have faith in your lord?"

    Yun Chi rolled her eyes with a yful smile, "I do have full faith in your boastful words, keke."

    When she had said that, many of the maidens were allughing jovially together.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    It is alright that you are all not apanying me. I have my Xiang Li and Anyang with me¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted him with a sob inside his soul sea: Sniff, Big Brother. Can I stay here instead?

    Anyang said: I would like to stay here as well too¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Aura had suddenly emerged from the spiritual sea within Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Mas¡­Master, I will stay with you¡­

    Ji Yuan said to Aura with a weak voice: Maybe you should learn how to speak more coherently and faster first¡­

    He quickly returned his attention to his group and said to them, "Well, I am going into the trial portal now. I see all of you in a short time. Farewell everyone."

    There were several longing nces that were made by the maidens but they were all nodding; it was the cultivator way not to prevent anyone from seeking their fortuitous encounters. After all, they were all defying the heavens through their cultivation.

    Soon, Ji Yuan had leapt into the trial portal and had disappeared.

    Ling Feiyue was suddenly gasping after Ji Yuan had entered the portal, "I have forgotten to remind Ji Yuan that 4 is his unlucky number and this trialsts for 4 days."

    Little Princess muttered weakly, "It''s alright. He probably goes in anyway."

 Chapter 975 The Dark Abyssal Realm

    ?

    After entering the trial portal, Ji Yuan soon found himself in a spatial space.

    "You are finally back. I''ve thought that you don''t have the courage to enter this trial." The familiar voice of the Trial Spirit said.

    Ji Yuan was surprised to hear the same voice of the Trial Spirit that he had encountered in thest trial.

    "It is you again?"

    "I have the ability to disguise my voice," The Trial Spirit chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You mean that I was talking to you all this while?"

    The Trial Spirit chuckled softly, "But since you are here already, I need to warn you that this trial is most dangerous. I believe that you have already read the ck stele outside. You are allowed to use a golden talisman to escape from this trial but you will fail this trial as a result. You have 40 days remaining for this trial. 30 days have already passed since this trial has begun¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "What is the objective of this Abyssal Trial?"

    The voice of the Trial Spirit said from above Ji Yuan, "It is a ughter trial. You get ughter points from killing the Abyssals in the Dark Abyssal. It won''t be easy."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "I will be turned into an Abyssal for this trial?"

    "Who told you this?" The Trial Spirit frowned.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ I just asking¡­"

    Then he quickly asked, "Since you can''t return to the Immortal Realm, you can lend me your strength after this trial is done?"

    The Trial Spirit smiled, "It will depend on your trial results."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "This is a little tough. It is because I am actually a friendly cultivator."

    The Trial Spirit said, "I am going to send you on your way now. Farewell."

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan hastily said, "This time round you won''t send me to the most dangerous ce, right?"

    "Why should I?" The Trial Spirit said.

    Ji Yuan looked quite relieved and he was grinning again. "Haha. That''s good. I can be on my way now."

    "Good luck to you," The Trial Spirit said and a sh of light had taken Ji Yuan away.

    When Ji Yuan was taken away, the Trial Spirit chuckled softly. "Why should I not take you to the most dangerous ce?"

    -

    -

    -

    The sh of light had taken Ji Yuan to a blight mountainousndscape and the heavens were gloomy. Although the heavens were gloomy, it still radiated a red light that lit up the surrounding horizons.

    Ji Yuan looked at the destendscape and he could not see a single de of grass or trees, "This is the Dark Abyssal Realm?"

    He took a deep breath as he extended his divine sense to his surroundings; the spiritual energies here were indeed weak and there was another type of energy here which was tyrannical in nature.

    Ji Yuan thought that this may be the infernal energies of the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to explore his surroundings, he was startled by a gigantic tyrannical dark flying creature in the heavens.

    Nine rank profound beast!

    Ji Yuan had immediately gauged the rank of this profound monster with his divine sense.

    This was actually the Dark Abyssal Serpent.

    And above this Dark Abyssal Serpent were a dozen red scaly humanoids with wicked horns on their heads and backs.

    These humanoids were indeed the Abyssals and they were twice the height of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan carefully concealed himself as he watched the Dark Abyssal Serpent flew away and he was in awe.

    "These Abyssals look really formidable and have strong vibes. I wonder if I will be able to fight them?"

    He was not crazy to fight 10 Abyssals and a powerful nine rank profound beast at the same time.

    A short whileter, Ji Yuan continued to speed his way across the deste wastnd.

    4 hourster, Ji Yuan had already sped 400 miles when he saw a small caravan below the mountains.

    He saw that there were a dozen Abyssals driving the caravan and they were leading many men and maidens in chains.

    There were roughly around 100 of these men and maidens in chains.

    Ji Yuan saw that many of the men and maidens had pointed ears and he was gasping, "They are Spiritas?"

    And he also saw that some of the pointed ears men and maidens had red eyes too and he was startled that they were the demonic race.

    But he was soon staring at the dozen Abyssals below.

    Finally, Ji Yuan had made a decision to confront them as he jumped down in the path of the caravan; he simply had to know how strong the Abyssals were.

    The 12 Abyssals were startled that a golden celestial had suddenly appeared in their path.

    But they were soon roaring with jovialughter when they saw that it was only a lone cultivator.

    All 12 of the Abyssals had quickly disyed their fierce infernal auras when Ji Yuan had approached them.

    Ji Yuan could see that 1 of the Abyssals were of the seventh cultivation realm, 3 were of the sixth cultivation realm and the other 8 Abyssals were of the lower cultivation realms.

    Ji Yuan had immediately disyed Xiang Li from his immortal scabbard and pointed at the highest cultivation realm Abyssal, "Let them all go at once!"

    He was not sure if the Abyssals could actually understand him.

    The highest cultivation realm level Abyssal could actually understand him since Ji Yuan was not the only celestial that had visited the Dark Abyssal.

    He roared with wickedughter as he pulled a heaven-step wicked double razor divine sword from his back, "Celestial, leave behind your emperor divine sword and all your other profound treasures. Then I, Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui may consider sparing your dear life!"

    By disying his emperor-step divine sword, Ji Yuan had also disyed his cultivation realm to the seventh level and he was feeling strange that this Abyssal could still be so bold with his words.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "What if I say no?"

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkuiughed jovially as he had suddenly raised his divine weapon at Ji Yuan and he had shed his sword with Ji Yuan''s sword, "Then you shall die in this ce and I shall use your blood to feed my blood cultivation!"

    There was arge thunderous sh when the two swords had shed against each other.

    And Ji Yuan was startled when he was forced to take 10 steps backward!

    This Abyssal''s profound strength was twice as powerful as Ji Yuan despite his newly cultivation strength and it was on par with a 8th cultivation realm cultivator!

    Ji Yuan was thoroughly shocked; if this Abyssal had a better divine sword, then his profound power that was disyed by his profound strength may even be much stronger than him.

    But then, Ji Yuan was like a dwarf in the presence of this towering Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui. Size did matter after all, it seemed.

    But Ji Yuan continued to grin, "I must admit that my brute profound strength isn''t as strong as you but I wonder if you are able to handle my profound sword arts?"

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkuiughed heartily as though he had just heard the funniest joke ever and he had even turned to look at hispatriots before him who were allughing jovially along with him.

    "You are the 49 great celestials that I have killed and won''t be thest in my long life. Muhahaha¡­"

    Great celestials naturally referred to the great saints that he had killed in the past.

    The hundred men and maidens were all staring nkly at Ji Yuan and they were quiet; it was because they did not think that Ji Yuan would even have a chance against the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui.

    In fact, most great saints could not even beat a sixth realm Abyssal lord.

    In the Dark Abyssal, the Abyssals were the overlords and none of the other races except for the Chaos Race could hope to contest with them in terms of pure profound strength and power.

    Ji Yuan jumped to make his attack and he had immediately disyed his Sacred Pir Sword as a white re light shimmered like a bolt of light from his sword.

    This was Ji Yuan''s miracle sword art and it could magnify his profound power by 3 times.

    But to Ji Yuan''s astonished surprise, his powerful profound sword art was blocked by the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui who had mustered a fiery infernal aura around him that immediately doubled his profound strength.

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock as he was suddenly forced back and he was mmed with a thunderous explosion into the rocky cliff that was behind him!

    Great Lord Gui Gongkui roared with heartyughter, "Is this the best that you can actually do?"

    Many of the chained men and maidens were shaking their heads silently; yet another celestial had died.

 Chapter 976 The half-step Immortal Empyrean Level

    <h4>Chapter 976 The half-step Immortal Empyrean Level</h4>

    There was a smoldering cloud of debris that had appeared from the cliff where Ji Yuan was mmed into.

    And of course, he had not died yet.

    All of a sudden, a pair of hands could be seen crawling out from the hole that was newly created and two sword spirits could be seen shining forth from the back of both of his hands.

    It was Ji Yuan that was crawling out and he was being enveloped by his sword aura which would be automatically be triggered when his profound aura was breeched by attacks.

    He had an ugly look on his face and he looked like a disgruntled cultivator now.

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was startled that this man was not injured and instead he was disying a fierce sword aura that was filled with his killing intents.

    However Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was not unafraid of Ji Yuan''s killing intents because his very own infernal aura was also disying a terrifying killing intent as well.

    He merely grunted, "What is your name, puny celestial?"

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui had rarely asked about the names of the celestials because he was an Abyssal and the Abyssals looked down on the other races.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he stepped forward, "Great Saint Ji Yuan!"

    He actually did not want to use up too much of his profound strength in this fight but it seemed that it was not possible anymore as he had realized how powerful the Abyssals were.

    As he dered loudly his name, the two sword spirits on his hands had vanished and reappeared on his forehead again,bining into his Ultra Sword Spirit.

    "This is not painful at all. Is this the best that you can do?"

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui could now see that Ji Yuan was really not injured at all after he had stepped out of the smoldering debris and he was greatly startled that under the crushing might of his infernal profound art, this Ji Yuan could still emerge unscathed.

    He snarled coldly as the ground beneath him started to shake violently with his profound might, "Then I shallvish myself by bathing in your blood!"

    Ji Yuan had a weird feeling ever since he had stepped into the Dark Abyssal and this weird feeling was further reinforced after he had experienced the infernal energies firsthand; it was as though he had experienced it before.

    As he cultivated the energy cultivation, he suddenly had a better understanding of the spiritual energies, the deste energies and also a minor understanding in the infernal energies.

    As a matter of fact, he had suddenly gained a sudden Dao inspiration and all of a sudden, his cultivation had increased to that of the 8th cultivation realm!

    Rather than saying that he had gained the 8th cultivation realm, it was better to say that Ji Yuan had created a false 8th cultivation realm that was higher than the current seventh cultivation realm of the sacred saint.

    And Ji Yuan had decided to call this false 8th cultivation realm the Empyrean level or the half-step immortal level.

    This insight was granted to him by his Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao through his current cultivations as Ji Yuan realized that he could not depend on his deste cherubim spirit animus to raise his cultivation strength temporary to the 8th cultivation realm in the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    Because Ji Yuan had already been tempered by the 81 purple lightning tribtion, even consumed a Dao Fruit and had also fullypleted his sacred saint golden core, he was actually considered to be a half-immortal now.

    Therefore, creating a totally new cultivation realm is actually possible for Ji Yuan. That is, if he has the time of course.

    But with the Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao that could increase his chances for inspiration for the 3000 Great Daos of the Heavens, he was able to quickly realized this newly created cultivation realm.

    Also, Ji Yuan''s talent is not something that a normal celestial could also match because deep within his soul, he is also the highly talented True Devil God that is blessed by the Heavenly Dao to be a Beyond Divinity.

    Therefore he has already upied a Great Dao of the Heavens with his previous reincarnation and this is carried to this life as well.

    Under the Immortal Realms, the cultivation realms could not exceed the 7th cultivation realm!

    Therefore, Ji Yuan could only create a false 8th cultivation realm to make the full use of his profound strength.

    Ji Yuan himself was surprised that his profound strength had actually increased to the 8th cultivation realm. Previously he had depended on his deste cherubim spirit animus to disy his profound strength to the 8th cultivation realm and it was actually weaker than the actual 8th cultivation realm.

    But now, Ji Yuan had actuallt made a breakthrough and attained to the false 8th cultivation realm of the Empyrean level.

    He was actually quite surprised that he did not have to stabilize his new cultivation boundary.

    This was naturally credited to Aura the Divine Tree that was refilling his inner spiritual sea with the pure and robust spirit energies of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    In fact, with this Golden Natal Divine Pearl, Ji Yuan actually did not need to depend on his environment to draw upon the spirit energies anymore and he could constantly replenish his profound strength from within him.

    Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was suddenly gasping with great shock, "8th cultivation realm! You are an immortal?!"

    Behind him, the other 11 Abyssals were startled to see Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm that was being disyed by his profound aura.

    This included the many chained men and maidens that were behind the Abyssals as well and for the very first time, they seemed to have seen a ray of hope.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly dashed forward again and his speed was startling as raised his emperor-step divine sword to disy the Sacred Pir Sword once again and attacked the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui.

    As he shed forward with the white re light of his divine sword, the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui was forced to use his most powerful internal profound art to receive Ji Yuan''s iing attack.

    There was a thunderous impact that shook the vicinity with shockwaves as they shed and this time it was the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui that was flung into the mountain side with a thunderous explosive impact!

    JI Yuan reacted immediately after the impact as he disyed another Sacred Sword Pir as he thrown his Divine Sword Xiang Li like a piercing white re of light into the smoldering debris as he killed the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui in the next instant by severing his spine, causing him to exploded violently into blood and flesh.

    When Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui had died, he could not believe how the heck this Ji Yuan could aim at his spine point and he could even severe his body; one must know that the Abyssals had such a powerful life force that they could not easily be killed even if they were covered with heavy injuries. Therefore in order to kill them, one must severe their skeleton bones which were as hard as a divine sword.

    And as a high level Abyssal, Gui Gongkui''s skeleton bones were even as hard as a heaven-step divine sword!

    But just like this, Ji Yuan''s profound attack had severed his spine and killing him!

    Ji Yuan himself was quite astonished at how powerful his Sacred Pir Sword was now with the true 8th cultivation realm as he muttered to himself: This miracle sword artbined with my new half-step immortal empyrean level is even more powerful than when I am disying my deste cherubim spirit animus...

    The other 3 Abyssals were shocked but they were all veterans so they reacted immediately to attack Ji Yuan with fierce and furious looks.

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his other Divine Sword Anyang from his immortal scabbard and he was grinning.

    The other 3 Abyssals were shocked that Ji Yuan had another emperor-step divine sword with him.

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed the Super Heavenly light of the Coiling Dragon as he took the lives of the 3 sixth cultivation realm Abyssals as they were not able to scatter in time; Ji Yuan was simply too fast for them to change their attacks to evasions and they did not have the chance to engage him yet!

    The other 8 Abyssals were terrified by Ji Yuan as they began to scatter in 8 different directions.

    Ji Yuan was not about to let them go so easily so he disyed his 9 divine swords from his immortal scabbard and sent them flying in all directions.

    The 8 Abyssals were terrified when they saw there were 9 more divine swords, including one more half-step emperor divine sword, a saint-step divine sword, an immortal-step divine sword and a celestial-step divine sword!

    In just two blinks of an eye, Ji Yuan had ughtered all the remaining 8 Abyssals.

    All 9 of his flying swords, including his Divine Sword Xiang Li had all flown back into his immortal scabbard in another two blinks of an eye.

    His feat stunned all the 100 men and maidens who were staring at shock at him and there were many gasps of wonders.

    They had never thought that a celestial would be this strong as to ughter 12 Abyssals so easily, including a Great Abyssal Lord.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was quite startled that his divine sense had received an insight from within: 10028 Points. He had received 9600 Points from killing the Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui.

    He thought: It seems that I will only receive a significant more points from killing a seventh realm Abyssal.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he approached the chained men and maidens.

    With several flickers of his sword fingers, Ji Yuan had broken the chains that had chained them together as he said to them. "You are all safe now¡­"

    Then he said to them, "You don''t mind answering some questions from me about this Dark Abyssal, do you? You see, I am new to this world and I am from the Celestial Realm. So I am in need of some information."

    An old man stammered, "Great Celestial Immortal, you are our savior¡­ you have killed the beastly Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui¡­."

    "Hahaha¡­ I am no immortal," Ji Yuanughed jovially as he interrupted the old man who he saw was only at the second cultivation realm. "I am only a celestial. Just call me Great Saint Ji Yuan¡­ no wait Empyrean Ji Yuan. Haha¡­"

    Since he had created a new cultivation realm, naturally he was going to make it into his new title.

    Many of the men and maidens refused to believe that Ji Yuan was not an immortal. After all, they could all sense his oppressing 8th cultivation realm profound aura earlier.

    But everyone greeted him nevertheless, "Empyrean Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually at the upper level of the new half-step immortal or false 8th cultivation realm. He was unsure if he could call himself as Great Empyrean Ji Yuan instead.

    But then, this cultivation realm was actually unique to him so it did not matter to him.

 Chapter 977 The New Orthodox Sword Sect

    <h4>Chapter 977 The New Orthodox Sword Sect</h4>

    All the men and maidens were now weeping as they bowed down to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan smiled gently to the freed men and maidens as he tried to assure all of them, "You are all freed now. All I need is just some information as I am new in this realm. I am a good guy. You may all stand. I actually do not like people to bow like this in front of me. Haha¡­"

    It was the truth; Ji Yuan preferred people to talk tough with him and showing him no face as he was more at ease and he did not mind as well.

    The old man that talked to Ji Yuan earlier was now looking moreposed and he was no longer stammering as he rose to say, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, we are all natives here and we are all taken by Abyssal Great Lord Gui Gongkui to the nearest city to be sold as ves and living cauldrons for the Abyssals. As for me, I am an old man, my old bones would likely to be sold as food for the abyssal beasts."

    Ji Yuan was shocked beyond words.

    ves?!

    Living cauldrons?!

    Food for the abyssal beasts?!

    What kind of inhumane lifestyle have these people been suffering here?!

    The old man sighed heavily, "Although we are freed now, we actually have no where to go. The Abyssals will hunt us down if they see us in such arge number."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "Really no where to go?"

    The old man pondered for a while before he said, "There are probably some savage humanoid races living in the mountain wilderness inside the Bloody Forest. Maybe we can go there but they won''t be friendly and we may not be safe there too."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "If you know that there are people there, the Abyssals would also know too. Am I right? Then why didn''t they wipe out all the humans in the Bloody Forest?"

    The old man answered with heavy sigh, "I wouldn''t call them exactly free. They are actually released in the Bloody Forest by the Abyssals a long time ago to be used as their preys to train their young Abyssals. I am afraid that the humanoid races there are more like savages and we may even be food for them¡­ the poor maidens here won''t be sad¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly; he could see that many of the maidens were scantily dressed and also beautiful. They would probably be vited by the humanoid races and their fates may even be more pitiful than being the pleasure ves and living cauldrons of the Abyssals.

    He was thinking that there may not be anything that he could really do for them since he would only be here for only 40 days.

    But he could not really leave them here since he felt quite angry about their plight.

    He frowned and growled before he finally said, "I''ve made a decision. We are going to the Bloody Forest first before I will head to the nearest city."

    The old man was shocked, "We are going there?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "We. Meaning that I will also go with you so I will protect everyone until we are there. Now, I want all the people with at least the third cultivation realms to step out¡­"

    There were actually no sixth realm cultivators among the 100 men and maidens so Ji Yuan could actually read all their cultivation realms.

    One must know that once a cultivator reached the Sixth Cultivation Realm which is the Spirit level, they can conceal their cultivation realms from the scrying divine sense of the cultivators.

    There were only 8 men and 2 maidens that had stepped forward.

    Ji Yuan nodded to them and he tossed 10 precious heaven-step swords to them. "Take these swords as your weapons from now onward. From now onward, you shall be the protectors of your group here."

    The 8 men and 2 maidens were shocked at such a precious gift.

    When Ji Yuan saw their expressions, he was smiling bitterly; these were only precious swords and not divine swords. He had already used up all his divine swords that he had gained previously from the Demonic Outer World. But to these people, this was indeed a most valuable gift.

    He was suddenly frowning when he remembered that his Orthodox Sword Sect''s heritage sword was only a lousy precious sword and he was silently cursing his old man for being so stingy.

    And he could hear his old man protesting in his mind, "Little rascal! Low profile! Low profile! If I give our sect a divine sword then won''t the Evil Cultivation Pce knows that we are not an ordinary sect and suspect my identity?"

    He had suddenly turned to grin at the old man, "I can see that you are the oldest here and you seem the most respected. What is your name?"

    The old man answered respectfully, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, you can call me Old Fu."

    "Well, Old Fu¡­" Ji Yuan grinned, "You are now the leader of this group and you will be leading them from now onward."

    Old Fu: ???

    He did not seem to really understand.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "In short, you shall be the sect leader of this new group."

    Old Fu was shocked, "But I am only at the second cultivation realm and I am not strong. How can I be the sect leader?"

    Ji Yuan said, "If I say that you can then you can."

    Then he turned to look at the other men and maidens before asking, "Does anyone disagrees with me?"

    All the men and maidens were shaking their heads and many were even smiling.

    Old Fu said gravely, "Then I have a request from Empyrean Ji Yuan."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan.

    Old Fu continued, "Then you shall be the founder of our sect and the Patriarch of our sect."

    Ji Yuan frowned before he said, "This is not unreasonable. So be it then."

    Old Fu smiled, "Then what is the name of our sect?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "The Orthodox Sword Sect then. This is the same as my celestial sect in the Celestial Realm. Hahaha¡­"

    This time round, he was going to y the MIA founder just like his old man.

    Then he took out another heaven-step precious sword and gave it to Old Fu, "This precious sword shall be the token of your leadership. Whoever has this sword after you shall also be the new leader of this Orthodox Sword Sect."

    When Ji Yuan had said, many of the men and maiden were smiling. "Sect Leader Old Fu¡­ our respects to our Patriarch Empyrean Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to say to everyone, "Now we ought to go to the Bloody Forest now where we can find food and water. I don''t need any food and water since I am a golden celestial but the whole lot of you will need a ce that can provide for your future needs."

    He estimated that the food and water supplies here would only be enough to sustain them until they reached the nearest Abyssal City.

    Next, he started to check the spatial rings and belts of the dead Abyssal for any useful items.

    He found plenty of blood crystals which contained infernal energies; this was used for the cultivation of the Abyssals and not useful for him except to be used as a currency.

    He also found plenty of minor profound treasures and even some spirit stones.

    Seeing that there was actually nothing precious in here, he only took the blood crystals and the divine weapons of the Abyssals since they were too heavy to be used by most people. Next he gave the rest of the loot to Old Fu.

    Old Fu was actually stunned by the great wealth that was given to him; after all there were one 7th cultivation realm and 3 6th cultivation realm Abyssals!

    Old Fu stammered with shock, "All these cultivation slips, cultivation resources, rare herbs and profound treasures are for me? Empyrean Ji Yuan, are you sure?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I saw that there are plenty of cultivation methods. You can impart to the rest of the sect or picked some talented men and maidens to pick up the cultivation methods. I don''t really care."

    Old Fu said weakly, "Some of the cultivation slips here look extremely formidable and high level¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "That''s alright. Just treat it as the heritages of the Orthodox Sword Sect. Haha¡­"

    He was actually toozy to learn new cultivation methods and moreover, Ji Yuan did not really like to loot from the dead that he had killed unless he had no other choice.

    The reason why he was cleaning up the loot was for the men and maidens that he had freed and also because he wanted to carefully destroyed the dead Abyssal bodies to avoid unnecessary troubles from any passer-by.

    In the past, he actually had several opportunities to own a divine sword after winning a fight with a rich cultivator. One such example was the Saint cultivator of the ck Thief Guild but he did not take away his divine sword or to loot him even though he was dirt poor.

    He may be a tomb raider but he would like to show a little decent respect for the recent dead. Or else, he would have used his sword to kill and rob the weaker cultivators a long time ago.

    There was another reason why he had taken away the blood crystals were because he did not want the freed men and maidens to start cultivating the infernal profound arts which may do them more harm than good. And also, he may have some uses of the blood crystals in this ce here.

    He was actually thinking of walking into the nearest Abyssal city to take a look.

    If Fairy Ye Chengxi knew of his bold ns, she would have fainted immediately; it was exactly the same when Ji Yuan had decided to visit the Emperor Hall Sect in the past. Except that this time, this was a world of hostile Abyssals.

    But this is Ji Yuan and he has the iron guts of a crazy donkey.

 Chapter 978 Reaching the Bloody Forest

    <h4>Chapter 978 Reaching the Bloody Forest</h4>

    It took the caravan 3 days to reach within sight of the Bloody Forest.

    Ji Yuan then ordered everyone to remove the goods from the wheeled caravan as they were all going on foot now into the dense forest.

    The trees here were really monstrous and it averaged 100m in height. The leaves of these trees however were red in color instead of the green coloring.

    During the 3 days that Ji Yuan was here, he noticed that the day was always dark red while the night did not have any red lights from the heavens and it was truly dark.

    Actually, he could reach this ce in less than a single day with his speed.

    But then, he was leading these 100 men and maidens; they did not have his speed or stamina. Moreover, they needed to eat, drink, rest and sleep.

    Ji Yuan had almost forgotten that he was once a low level cultivator now after he had been a high level cultivator for the past several hundreds years.

    The many men and maidens slowly warmed up to Ji Yuan when they saw that he was actually an approachable person.

    In fact, Ji Yuan had spent much of his time walking with Old Fu and asking him questions in an amicable manner as he liked to grin and smile.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan was actually very beautiful in the eyes of the maidens and he slowly be the object of their fascinations.

    All the maidens were constantly looking at Ji Yuan and trying to get his attentions.

    Actually Ji Yuan had noticed that the maidens were smiling and trying to get to know him but he pretended not to see.

    It was not because these maidens were not beautiful. In fact, some of the maidens especially the spiritas maidens were very too beautiful, especially in their scantily dressing.

    However, Ji Yuan had already seen his fair share of the beautiful spiritas maidens in the Greater Spirit Realm and he was no longer excited by their beautiful sights; it was as though they were all heavily clothed in his eyes.

    Of course, the spiritas maidens, Destiny and even his maidens were all outstanding beautiful maidens. So, he really did not have any lusty look on the maidens here nor did he have any needs to turn them into his living cauldrons as he did not know or practice such hideous cultivation.

    Another reason why Ji Yuan was not interested in these maidens were because he was technically their Patriarch now and he was against developing any prot¨¦g¨¦ master and prot¨¦g¨¦ rtionship.

    Technically, he would never be together with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan if he could have his way. But he got setup by Xia Jiajia and he ended up firstly with Shangguan Yan and then Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Actually, he was not against the prot¨¦g¨¦ master and prot¨¦g¨¦ rtionship if he was the prot¨¦g¨¦ of course. Technically, this was allowed in his mind.

    Old Fu saw the dreamy looks on the maidens and he also saw that Ji Yuan did not even take notice of them. He began to think that this Empyrean Ji Yuan may actually be interested in a man since he was constantly talking to him.

    He had to admit that he was quite a handsome man when he was young, actually.

    Ji Yuan said to Old Fu and everyone, "It is getting dark soon. Let''s camp outside the Bloody Forest for the night and then we shall set off the next day."

    His instructions were quickly followed and everyone was now busy making a makeshift camp.

    Old Fu said to Ji Yuan, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, you didn''t rest for 3 days. Why don''t I make a tent for you to sleep?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "No need. I am not tired. Haha¡­ I shall continue to watch over all of you."

    Old Fu slowly nodded; he had no idea how long a high level cultivator was able to starve off rest and sleep. But this Ji Yuan did not eat, rest or sleep for 3 days now.

    Now it was night.

    There were only Ji Yuan and 8 others that were watching over the camp site.

    The night was actually not peaceful and there were actually some dangers.

    In fact, the scent of so many people quickly attracted the attention of the nearby profound abyssal beasts.

    Ji Yuan had actually noticed that too but he did not raise any rms. Instead, he had sent his flying swords flying into the dead of the night to ughter all the profound abyssal beasts that dared to approach the camp.

    Luckily for him, all the profound abyssal beasts were less than the 5th rank and he could easily dispatched them with just a attack from his flying swords.

    He was so swift and quiet in his execution that the 8 nearby guards did not even notice that Ji Yuan was attacking the approaching dangers in the night.

    After 6 hours into the night, dozens of profound abyssal beasts'' corpsesy all around the camp. With so much corpses around, many of the profound abyssal beasts had quickly scented great danger and did not dare to approach the dead zone.

    The night was soon looking quite peaceful.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly looking at the skull ring that was on his finger.

    This skull ring was from Destiny. But she was no longer here now.

    He thought: Does it means that I can now remove the ring? Since she isn''t here now, I can now remove it right?

    When he had thought of this, he immediately tried to pull the ugly ring from his finger.

    But to his dismal, he failed to pull the skull ring from his finger and he was astonished, "What the heck?!"

    All of a sudden, he had an idea.

    He began to call out in his soul sea: Xiang Li, Anyang! I need your help!

    Xiang Li: Yes, Big Brother?

    Anyang: ???

    Ji Yuanughed softly: Haha, the two of you are Trial Spirits in the past too. This skull ring that I am wearing, how can I remove it? Can you check for me?

    Xiang Li giggled: You have found the right person.

    Anyang: Isn''t that skull ring from that Great Oracle Destiny? Why do you want to remove it?

    Ji Yuan answered: I am just curious about this ring and what it can do. It sounds weird to me that I can summon Destiny here by calling her name 3 times. Do you think that she is pulling a trick on me?

    Anyang asked curiously: Why do you think it is a trick?

    Ji Yuan weakly said: Can you imagine if I were to fight the Great Demon God and then I call her name 3 times, only to have ''nothing happens''. This will be really awkward you know.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: This skull ring is a True Divinity profound treasure. I am sure it can work this way.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Xiang Li, what do you mean by it can work this way? You sound like you don''t know.

    Xiang Li weakly said: I am a low level Trial Spirit, you know. Maybe Anyang knows about it.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''ve just remembered that Xiang Li is a low level fairy spirit¡­

    Anyang, you know?

    Anyang said: Let me focus my divine sense into that skull ring¡­ hmm, your skull ring seems to be a pocket dimension.

    Ji Yuan frowned: A pocket dimension? Don''t tell me that Destiny is hiding inside and she is trying to surprise me by popping out in this manner?

    Anyang giggled: I can send you inside for you to find out.

    Ji Yuan was startled: You can?

    Anyang giggled: Yes, I can but there is a small problem though.

    Ji Yuan frowned unhappily: You mean the small problem is that you can''t send me into the skull ring, am I right?

    Anyangughed softly: How do I send you into the skull ring when you are struck with wearing the skull ring?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He rolled his golden eyes with a sheepish look: This is indeed a problem. But it isn''t a small problem but a big problem.

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, why don''t you chop off your finger? Then won''t this problem be solved?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 979 Inside The Skull Ring

    ?

    "Darn!"

    Ji Yuan cursed loudly as he stepped into the pocket dimension of the skull ring.

    He was looking a little red now, but it was not anger but awkwardness.

    Xiang Li and Anyang however were allughing jovially in his soul sea.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had managed to step into inside the skull ring was not because he had cut off his finger but because Fairy Anyang had told him that she was only teasing him after she saw that he had really taken out his divine sword to cut off his finger.

    Ji Yuan had actually wanted to cut off his finger first and then to meld it together; he was after all a golden celestial and it was no problem for him to attach his finger again.

    But to his great awkwardness, Anyang had suddenly told him that she was only teasing him and she would send him into the skull ring to take a look.

    Anyangughed jovially, "I am a high level Trial Spirit after all. Unraveling this profound treasure isn''t a problem for me."

    Ji Yuan was still cursing softly after he hadnded inside the pocket dimension of the skull ring and he wondered if there was any MC that was the butt of a joke from their fairy spirits like him?

    He warned them, "Remember that I am your high and almighty master!"

    Anyang giggled, "Well, we are attached to your divine swords now and not your soul sea anymore. So you aren''t exactly our master now."

    "That''s right!" Xiang Li was also giggling.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Have you forgotten that I am the Master of your divine swords!"

    Anyang chuckled, "Who is begging who for help now? Do you want to exit this pocket dimensionter?"

    Ji Yuan immediatelyughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ I was only joking with the two of you."

    He was actually thinking: I may have lost this round but I shall win the next round!

    Ji Yuan had actually never thought of himself as the master of Xiang Li and Anyang. Rather they were like his close confidants. And this was not the first time that they had joked in this manner as they pped one another in the face.

    To Ji Yuan, he was just sour about not seeing through their little tricks and was not really angry even though he was cursing; cursing was actually quite normal for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan looked at his surroundings and were startled that to see the towering trees here look quite familiar to the Great Oracle Gate.

    Then he growled as he recalled the likeness of the exterior of the Great Oracle Gate to the skull ring¡­

    "Don''t tell me that Destiny is ying a joke on me by hiding somewhere here?"

    Then he was grinning, "No one can trick me!"

    Anyang pointed out, "I have just tricked you, you know."

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang and walked around the towering forest but he was also cautious since he knows that there were plenty of high level profound monsters in this ce.

    But before he moved on, he asked Anyang. "Are you sure that you can get me out of here? Thest time I was in this ce, I was lost for 3 days."

    Anyang giggled softly, "Trust me. This skull ring doesn''t seem to have a master around now and it will be easy for me to get you out of here."

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "You mean Destiny is not here?"

    Anyang extended her spirit sense around before she said solemnly, "I don''t think so but she may be able to conceal her profound aura. If she is around, I can''t get you out of here without her permission."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I hope that you are not joking with me¡­"

    He was soon walking in the forest and walking cautiously since he had a bad experience in the past in this ce; the profound beasts in this ce was all extremely high level and above the 7th rank.

    An hourter, he was suddenly smiling and he said to Xiang Li and Anyang. "Guess what? I think that I''ve heard a maiden bathing in the springs ahead. Maybe that may be Destiny?"

    Anyang rolled her eyes and said, "I didn''t know that my lord''s hearing is as sharp as your eyesight."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "Big Brother, are you sure? Maybe you are wrong?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Trust me. My nose can pick up the scent of water from faraway and I can sniff the fragrance soap that is used by the maidens. Haha¡­"

    Anyang rolled her eyes with a sheepish look, "So it is your nose and not your hearings¡­"

    Xiang Li said to Anyang as she praised Ji Yuan, "Well Big Brother can even sniff if a maiden is a chaste maiden or not from afar."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Xiang Li, I didn''t say that. Don''t put words into my mouth."

    But he was soon grinning, "But I can tell if the maiden is chaste or not just by looking at her¡­"

    Xiang Li and Anyang curiously asked, "How?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Secret! I''m not going to share with the two of you¡­ anyway be very quiet. I am going to check what is ahead of us now¡­"

    With just a blink of an eye, Ji Yuan had quickly disappeared into the forest and he had emerged in the thick covering of the undergrowth.

    He had found several fern growths that was as tall as him and he had quietly moved along it; also he did not use his divine sense and he was using his eyes instead. It was because while divine sense could extend his sensory perception but it was all too easy for the high level cultivators to sense if someone else was looking at them with their divine sense.

    Ji Yuan was a high level cultivator that was not a cultivator as he had depended on several tricks that most cultivators could not depend on.

    For example, he could also move like a shadow and no one could see him if they are not looking in his direction.

    Anyang warned him: My lord, don''t bump into a flesh rotting spirit nt in the undergrowth of the ferns by mistake. Or you will be screwed. You''ll be game over if you do. This will be the most awkward death that can happen to any cultivator.

    Ji Yuan said weakly to Anyang in his soul sea: I am not that unlucky¡­

    Then all of a sudden, he was frozen on the spot.

    It was because he could see the naked backs of two beautiful maidens in front of him as they giggled softly in the river in front of him. Although he could not see their faces but they looked very beautiful and sensuous.

    Ji Yuan was immediately drooling as he gasped: They are definitely not Destiny. Her hair is white silver. These two maidens are so beautiful. But why should they be bathing in this ce? This is a most dangerous ce¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Hehe. I think that Big Brother is the most dangerous object in this ce.

    Anyang asked Ji Yuan: I thought that our lord isn''t interested in any beauties anymore?

    Ji Yuan frowned to Anyang: Did I say so?

    As he answered Anyang, his golden eyes were looking at the two beautiful maidens that were bathing naked in the crystal clear river and he could see that they werepletely naked.

    He was thinking: Maybe I should ask them why they are here? But I should wait for them to be dressed up first, right? So I should wait until they finish their shower or it will be too rude for me to disturb them. I may give them a fright if I appear just like this¡­

    All of a sudden, one of the maidens turned and shouted in his direction, "Who is there peeping at us?!"

    Ji Yuan was shocked that his perfect concealment was actually discovered!

    "No, wait! I am not a peeping tom! I am just a passer-by¡­"

    Xiang Li covered her face: Big Brother, this excuse is a little toomonly used¡­

 Chapter 980 Tang Manni And Ding JieEr Again!

    ?

    The two naked maidens screamed as they covered themselves with their hands but not before they hurled several spirit talismans that exploded over Ji Yuan.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan, he had quickly disyed his Xiang Li divine sword as he blocked the profound attacks.

    He was now staring nkly at the two naked maidens, not because he was feeling lusty but because he had recognized them to be the divine consorts Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er.

    "Master Ji Yuan?!" Tang Manni gasped with shock before she quickly be flustered.

    Ding Jie''Er was gasping with joy when she had recognized that the peeping tom was actually Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, it is really you¡­"

    A stunned Ji Yuan blinked his eyes several times as he asked, "Divine Consort Tang Manni, Divine Consort Little Jie''Er, why are you here in this ce? Isn''t this Destiny''s Great Oracle Gate?"

    Ding Jie''Er smiled shyly, "if Yuan Beluga wants to watch us bathing, I actually don''t mind."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Tang Manni did not want to lose to Ding Jie''Er so she smiled wryly, "If Master Ji Yuan wants to join us for a bath, I really don''t mind too. After all, I am already yours."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Actually, I want to but¡­. Are you serious?

    But he put on a straight face to ask awkwardly, "I have actually barged at the wrong moment when I was investigating the forest here. I didn''t expect to have met the two of you here¡­ why don''t you put on your clothing first before we have a little chat?"

    Both Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er nodded as they started to step forth from the river.

    JI Yuan could not help staring at their naked bodies when they had stepped forward from the river and he purposely turned around slowly but not before he saw it all.

    Actually, Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were doing it purposely to catch Ji Yuan''s eyes.

    A short whileter, Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er had put on their clothes and they were both hugging Ji Yuan from left to right.

    Ji Yuan asked them curiously, "Howe the two of you are here in this ce?"

    Tang Manni smiled as she lifted her finger with the red ring, "The Great Oracle has given us a red ring to enter her divine pce. With this red ring, we will also be safe from the profound beasts in this ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking: I want a red ring as well. I don''t feel safe in this ce¡­

    Tang Manni continued, "She told us¡­ that we can be with you if we are willing to give up everything and to enter this ce."

    "That is right." Ding Jie''Er said with a coyly look at Ji Yuan.

    JI Yuan was stunned, "The two of you give up your noble position so that you can be with me?"

    He was feeling very guilty now.

    "Erm, where is Destiny? She is here too?" he asked.

    Tang Manni said quietly, "She isn''t here. In fact, we don''t know where she is. But she did say that we are to stay here until you have returned to the Celestial Realm. However, we are not allowed to appear in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as the mysticws there will surely send us back to the Spirit Divine Realm or will even kill us."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "So, if I did not have the curiosity to check this skull ring then I would never have found the two of you?"

    Ding Jie''Er asked curiously, "Yuan Beluga, why are you in this ce? You are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually I am in the Dark Abyssal Realm now. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er and Tang Manni were both startled as they said together, "Why are you doing here?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Actually, this is the question that I want to ask the stupid Trial Spirit as well. Luckily, the ce that I am sent to, isn''t the most dangerous ce ordingly to the stupid Trial Spirit."

    Ding Jie''Er was suddenly sniffing and her eyes were bleary, "Yuan Beluga, I am so d to see you again¡­ are you upset with us foring here?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Little Jie''Er, please don''t cry. Actually I am d that to see the two of you again. Haha¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er muttered with sobbing voice, "Really Yuan Beluga?"

    Tang Manni was gasping and her alluring eyes were glistening, "Master Ji Yuan, really? You really d that we are here¡­ for you?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Now that you are all here, why don''t you join me in the Dark Abyssal here? We can have one another forpany."

    Tang Manni said weakly, "Can we? But the Great Oracle says we are not allowed to leave this ce without her permission."

    Ding Jie''Er nodded, "That''s right. If we screw up then we cannot be with Yuan Beluga anymore."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Don''t worry. Destiny only says you can''t be in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and we are not here. Also, I can send you back here anytime too."

    Ding Jie''Er stammered as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga¡­ you can really send us back here?"

    Tang Manni was also looking at Ji Yuan and she was thinking of the same as well.

    Ji Yuan grinned to the two of them, "Of course. Why do you think that I am able to be here in the first ce?"

    Anyang said in his soul sea: Actually, it is me and not you¡­

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang.

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er looked at each other for a while before they turned to smile with great coquettishly at Ji Yuan; they do want to be with Ji Yuan wherever he goes!

 Chapter 981 You Are Both My Maidens

    ?

    "Let''s go back outside," Ji Yuanughed softly. "It will be good if I have the two of you to talk here."

    Tang Manni pursed her lips as she held onto him tightly, "We are¡­. Not your only maidens. Surely you can always find other maidens to talk with."

    "Yeah¡­" Ding Jie''Er said with an alexithymia look.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Actually I havee alone to this Dark Abyssal. My other maidens are not here with me."

    Ding Jie''Er was startled, "They are not here? Why Yuan Beluga? If I were them, I would surely follow you wherever you go!"

    Tang Manni hastily said, "Same here! I will never leave Master Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he turned to look at Tang Manni, "Just call me Ji Yuan and I shall also call you Manni instead of Divine Consort Tang Manni. How about that?"

    Tang Manni had a slight flush on her cheeks before she lowered her eyes, "Alright then¡­ Ji Yuan¡­"

    Then he said weakly, "The reason why my maidens did not want toe to this ce is because they did not want to be turned into an ugly Abyssal."

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were both startled as they said together, "They will be turned into ugly Abyssals for this trial?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Naturally this is not true. They just assume that they would be. Anyway, I am d that they are not here. Even if wee to take the trial together, we will probably won''t be in the same ce. Since they are not around, I can better focus on the trial here instead."

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er slowly nodded; they did not want to be turned into an ugly Abyssal too¡­

    Ji Yuan grinned to them, "Good. Then let''s go back to where I havee¡­"

    As he tried to move, he found out that he could not; it was because he was being held tightly on the spot by both Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er. He could feel their sensuous bodies pressing on him and even their soft bosoms on his arms.

    "We should make a move," he weakly said.

    But still Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er refused to let him go and they were even trembling lightly as they held onto him tightly, refusing to let go of him.

    "Manni, Little Jie''Er¡­" Ji Yuan weakly asked. "Erm, if you don''t let go of me, how can I make a move?"

    Tang Manni quietly muttered, "We are afraid that you would not really want us to follow you¡­ you reject me thest time¡­"

    "Yuan Beluga," Ding Jie''Er was bleary teared. "That day, you say to me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled; he had suddenly remembered how he had rejected Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er. Even his ountings to them were quiteme.

    But how could he not know their hearts? He was not blind. It was just that he did not want to hurt them¡­

    But since things hade to this stage now, he began to sigh heavily as he held them strongly, "Since you have alreadye to this ce and abandoned your world. What can I say now¡­ The two of you are now my maidens, alright?"

    Tang Manni was startled as she looked at Ji Yuan, "We are your maidens?"

    Ding Jie''Er gasped with shock, "Really¡­ Yuan Beluga? I can be your maiden?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course. Will I lie to the two of you? Come, let''s us go back outside now."

    There was a glistening tear that was from Tang Manni as she sobbed with blissful happiness, "I can be¡­ Ji Yuan''s maiden¡­ is this for real¡­"

    Ding Jie''Er was also in tears and there were streams of hot tears on her tears as she stared with disbelief at Ji Yuan, "Yuan Beluga, I can¡­ really be your maiden?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course! Did I not say already that the two of you are my maidens from now onward?"

    Tang Manni slowly nodded as she still could not hear her ears, "Can you say it again?"

    "Yes please, I want to hear it again too to make sure that I am not dreaming." Ding Jie''Er said.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "The two of you are my maidens¡­"

    "Manni is my maiden now¡­"

    "Little Jie''Er is my maiden now¡­"

    "Manni and Jie''Er, the two of you are my maidens now¡­"

    Ji Yuan said it again and again until Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were convinced that they were not dreaming and Ji Yuan meant every word that he had said.

    -

    -

    -

    When Ji Yuan returned from the pocket dimension of the skull ring to the camp, the sentries were startled that Ji Yuan had brought two unknown beautiful maidens with him.

    They totally had no idea where these two great beauties hade from but Ji Yuan was happily chatting with them.

    Xiang Li whispered to Anyang secret: Big Brother is a big mouth so he needs to talk a lot.

    Anyang muttered weakly: Now I know why he isn''t in his sect all the time because he has no one to talk with¡­

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were both astonishing great beauties.

    Tang Manni was extremely beautiful and refined while Ding Jie''Er was coyly and she had a look of innocence beauty on her.

    The minute that they had appeared, all the men were captivated by them!

    Soon, the news had spread that Empyrean Ji Yuan had brought two unknown unbelievable beautiful maidens into the camp and everyone was curious to take a look at them even though it was still night!

    Even Old Fu was awakened in the middle of the night as he approached Ji Yuan for an introduction, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, they are¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "They are Maidens Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er. They are both my maidens¡­."

    When Ji Yuan had announced their status in front of Old Fu and to the rest of the curious onlookers, there were coyly flushes that had appeared on Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er¡­

 Chapter 982 The 5 Divine Consorts

    ?

    The presence of Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er into the camp had stirred up excited looks because they were really extremely beautiful maidens.

    One must know that they are spiritas maidens and spiritas maidens all radiated an unearthly supernatural beauty to their animus; that is also the reason why in the Dark Abyssal, the spiritas maidens are all highly valued as living cauldrons for the debased Abyssals.

    Moreover, Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er are also divine consorts and their high level spirit cultivation further enhanced their unearthly supernatural beauty.

    When it was morning, Ji Yuan had wasted no time in introducing Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er as his maidens to the rest of the camp.

    Ji Yuan also told Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er that he had found a new celestial sect, which startled them and the name of this celestial sect was the Orthodox Sword Sect.

    Therefore, all these people in the camp here were all his proteges.

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er looked a little dumbfounded by this revtion even though they did not really say anything about it.

    Rather, they were both flushing coyly when Ji Yuan was introducing them as his maidens; this was something that they had been dreaming of for several months and were hoping that it maye true one day.

    They had never thought that they would actually meet Ji Yuan in this circumstance and they were thinking how to approach Ji Yuan when they were in the Celestial Realm. There was even a chance that Ji Yuan would reject them once again.

    They had yed their worries over and over every day until today.

    Ji Yuan quickly made up a story on how he had met his two maidens in the Bloody Forest and that was how they got here.

    Naturally no one really questioned Ji Yuan about this since the people here was mostly concerned about their future survival.

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er wasted no time in introducing themselves to the people and they quickly won everyone over with their approachable and amicable smiles.

    These two newly arrived spiritas maidens looked like high level cultivators and they were only too d to have more high level cultivators to protect them.

    After all, they could not just depend on just one Empyrean Ji Yuan if the Abyssals were toe in great numbers; Ji Yuan may not be the one that was killed first but they would be killed first!

    Although Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er looked happy now but they actually had a hidden concern and it was actually that they had missed the other divine consorts back in their city-state; in the recent months all 5 of the divine consorts were as close as sisters and they had even tried to make Ji Yuan their Spiritas Hero and Divine Lord even though they would make an enemy out of the other 11 city-states in the past.

    Toward Xu Yifei, Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun, they felt only guilt now...

    -

    -

    -

    In the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Snowy Pavilion City.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei said to Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun, "I''ll be going for a closed cultivation for a long time. I shall leave the affairs of the city-state to the two of you instead."

    Her suddenly announcement startled Divine Consort Dongfang Xin and Divine Consort Sun Dingjun who were still trying to coup with the suddenly disappearance of Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er.

    And now even Xu Yifei was going to be away for some time?

    Xu Yifei was actually lying to them; it was because she had been preparing to go to the Celestial Realm for a number of days now and she did not want anyone to know.

    Also, ording to the sacredws of the Spiritas, a city-state should have 3 divine consorts to be independent. Therefore, she did not want to tell them that she was actually going away and probably never going to be back¡­

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin had suddenly asked her, "Great Consort Xu Yifei, your sister¡­ Divine Consort Tang Manni, she¡­ really isn''t going to be back anymore? She has look for Divine Lord Ji Yuan?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei quietly said, "I¡­ do not know."

    Divine Consort Sun Dingjun said woefully, "You really do not know how to lie at all. I am sure that Little Jie''Er has gone to look for Divine Lord Ji Yuan. And you are also going too. Even the Great Oracle Destiny is no longer here anymore. Everyone is gone now¡­ even you too¡­ it is just the two of us now¡­"

    Her lovely eyes were bleary and she was trembling, "I have lost Little Jie''Er and I have also lost Divine Lord Ji Yuan¡­ I don''t know the purpose of my life now¡­"

    Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also sighing, "Divine Lord Ji Yuan is a true hero and he is the only man that is worthy of my love¡­ I can never love another man ever again¡­"

    Xu Yifei said mncholy with watery look, "Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun¡­ one day Master Ji Yuan will be back to the Spirit Divine Realm¡­ I am sure of this¡­ there will be such a day¡­"

    Although she had tried to say as convincing as possible but Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun were still sad.

    Before they had met Ji Yuan, they had wished to do away with the other divine consorts but now, all 5 of the divine consorts had actually be quite close to one another and they had even settled their differences.

    This was all due to the appearance of Ji Yuan.

    Xu Yifei continued to say with bleary eyes, "Our city-state and this world will always wee Master Ji Yuan back. Do you all not agree with me? After all, he is our Great Spiritas Hero and Great Champion here. Also, his best friend Xiao Muhan is also in our Spirit Divine Realm¡­ so he will surely be back one day."

    Dongfang Xin and Sun Dingjun did not reply to Xu Yifei; it was because they were actually in silent tears and they were trembling with emotions¡­

    They really did not want Ji Yuan to go back to the Celestial Realm and the end of the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower had only caused them to be even more anxious that Ji Yuan may leave soon enough and he had already left.

 Chapter 983 The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha

    ?

    Somewhere near the Bloody Forest.

    An Abyssal Lord had hastily said to the Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha who was with a small group of Abyssals, "My Prince, I have spotted a big group of non-Abyssals ahead of us and they numbered around 100 of them. They looked low level though."

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha was startled and delighted at the same time, "100?! Are you serious? Muhahaha. Now, I can finally have my hunt!"

    The Abyssal Lord grunted, "Yeah. They are just ahead of us. Shall we go and get them?"

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombuchaughed jovially as he brandished his heavy two handed sword which he could easily carry on one hand, "Of course! Now I am going to have a little fun!"

    The Great Abyssal Lord Pincha behind him quickly said, "My Prince. Don''t be hasty. It is quite unusual for such arge group of non-Abyssals to be seen like this. We ought to be careful."

    "I agree with the Great Abyssal Lord Pincha," The Great Abyssal Lord Hu Anmaka said solemnly. "Maybe I shall investigate this for my prince first."

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha grinned with great amusement, "I have two great abyssal lords here that are in the upper seventh cultivation realm as well as 4 abyssal lords in the lower seventh cultivation realm here. Just any one of us here can easily wipe out a human seventh cultivation realm easily and moreover we have 7 of us here. So, do I need to worry?"

    The Great Abyssal Lord Hu Anmaka said solemnly, "Even then, we still need to prioritize the safety of our prince. This is after all our duty to do so or we cannot answer to our Great Abyssal King."

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombuchaughed jovially as he ignored the advice, "Just follow me. This is an order from me. I am eager to feed my blood lust after so many days in this Bloody Forest."

    He was with a small retinue here in the Bloody Forest for his hunt and after days of searching in vain, he had finally got some news of the non-Abyssals in the Bloody Forest. So how would he pass off this great opportunity to get the first blood?

    Kombucha was not only the Great Abyssal Prince of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom but he was also a royal abyssal and therefore his bloodline was stronger than any abyssal.

    Although he was currently weakly than the two great abyssal lords that were with him but histent potential allowed him to surpass them in the future!

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha smirked coldly, "This will be a ughterfest. That''s right. More than 100 kills will be a ughterfest! I want none of you to help me. All the glory is to go to me!"

    The Great Abyssal Lord Pincha was shocked, "We can''t afford our prince to get even a little scratch¡­"

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha angrily disgruntled, "I am a royal abyssal and this is the way of the Abyssals to shed blood. Don''t worry, I won''t me on anyone of you should I get a tiny scratch¡­"

    "But what if you got a big scratch instead?" Ji Yuan had suddenly emerged from the shadows of the tall trees in front and he was grinning as he interrupted.

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha and the other 6 Abyssals were startled for they had not sensed the arrival of this man!

    Ji Yuan had sensed the killing intents of an Abyssal earlier.

    He said to Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, "Wait here for me¡­ I''ve got some business elsewhere. Stay here to protect the people¡­"

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er both said to Ji Yuan, "Be very careful¡­"

    They are Spiritas and their spirit divine senses are even more uncanny than Ji Yuan; they had already sensed the presence of an Abyssal that was trying to conceal its presence from afar but it was futile in front of them.

    The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha quicklyposed himself and smirked coldly, "You must be the leader of the non-abyssal group? Good! I have a solid fight now!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am indeed the leader of my group. You can call me Empyrean Ji Yuan and who are you?"

    "You don''t know who I am?" The Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha wasughing jovially, "I am the mighty Great Abyssal Prince Gong¡­"

    He did not get to finish introducing himself because Ji Yuan had already brandished his emperor-step divine sword and his ultra sword spirit on his forehead; in that very instant, Ji Yuan had severed his thick head and caused it to roll on the ground, stunning the rest of the 6 Abyssals who were shocked that their great abyssal prince had suddenly been killed.

    But this was not the end of their shocks yet. It was because Ji Yuan had disyed his Empyrean level cultivation realm, causing the Abyssals to react with great shock that Ji Yuan may be an immortal cultivator.

    The Great Abyssal Lord Pincha was angry that his great abyssal prince had been killed that he shouted angrily to Ji Yuan, "I shall kill you!"

    And he had charged at Ji Yuan with a mighty disy of his infernal profound power!

    But Ji Yuan had suddenly shed him 3 times and had flung him down on the ground with a thunderous impact.

    At the same time, the other 5 Abyssals had also attacked Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he disyed his other emperor-step divine sword Anyang, "Heehee¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had mmed his two divine swords together as he disyed a brilliant white re of white light of sword energies that exploded like a big cross, ripping the vicinity.

    He had just disyed his grand cross profound attack which required him to disy his life force energies.

    This was the very first time that Ji Yuan had disyed his grand cross profound attack when he had reached the 8th cultivation realm and it was easily twice as powerful when he was using his deste cherubim spirit animus!

    The Great Abyssal Lord Hu Anmaka quickly shouted to the rest of his fellow abyssals, "Quick! Defend with all your profound strength!"

    The other 4 abyssals did not even need to wait for the Great Abyssal Lord Hu Anmaka to warn him as they could feel that his white re of sword energies was extremely dangerous and powerful; they were already on full defensive modes as they raised their infernal powers defensively to protect them.

    But their efforts were in futile, the 6 abyssals including the Great Abyssal Lord Pincha that was picking himself up from the ground were all blighted by the powerful life force sword energies that Ji Yuan had just disyed.

    The 6 Abyssals werepletely sheared to pieces by the fierce annihting power of the grand cross sword energies that was formed bybining two Sacred Pir Swords.

    Sword energies are actually the nemesis of all profound auras and defensive profound arts. It just that sword cultivators are rarely able to improve on their sword energies attackpared to the powerful 6th and 7th cultivation profound arts. Hence, sword energies could actually be easily blocked since most sword cultivators could not muster enough profound power to match the profound power of the profound arts or defensive profound aura.

    But Ji Yuan''s sword energies were simply too powerful especially when this was also his life force energies attack and moreover, he had raised his cultivation realm to the 8th level.

    Killing these 6 Abyssals were like slicing tofu for Ji Yuan now.

    Ji Yuan''s ughter points had now increased to 72 442 Points!

    These two great abyssal lords were actually more powerful than the first great abyssal lord that Ji Yuan had killed 4 days ago. So, he actually got a lot more ughter points from them.

    Ji Yuan was astonished how easily he had killed the 7 Abyssals with his current strength as he was expecting a tough fight.

    That was the reason why he had suddenly attacked in the first ce as he wanted to seize the initiative to strike first.

    Ji Yuan had only one thing to say as he muttered, "I haven''t even used my Life and Death Sword Domain on my grand cross yet and you are all dead. How am I going to test my profound arts then?"

    His Life and Death Sword Domain is the more powerful version of his life force energies and it maximized his life force energies to his very limit which can effectively triple his profound power. However, he could only use this only once with his grand cross.

 Chapter 984 Fairy Anyangâ€™s Request

    ?

    The sword energies that were being disyed by Ji Yuan''s grand cross were so powerful that a couple of the 100m tall trees had even snapped and copsed.

    The tree trucks of these towering tees were as width as 5m and Ji Yuan was quite startled that his grand cross could even snap their trucks!

    This was the same as breaking the spine of a seventh rank profound beast!

    Ji Yuan was quite startled that he could now kill seventh rank profound beast with just a powerful disy of his sword profound art.

    One must know that seventh realm cultivators may not even be able to contest with a seventh rank profound beast due to their superior body, regeneration, armor, power and even speed of attack. It was always a hard fight that most seventh realm cultivators would rather avoid since they are more capable of killing other seventh realm cultivators than the seventh rank profound beasts which required them to have extreme avoidance skill or profound defense in the first ce.

    For Ji Yuan, he belonged to the rare type of cultivators that could fight the high level profound beasts due to his reflexes and he would be described as a monster hunter.

    For any other cultivators, if they would to muster their profound aura to try to high level profound beasts then even before they could even react, they would be ripped apart first by the ws or insane attacks from a high level profound beast.

    The profound might of a high level profound beast were tens of times higher than a cultivator simply because of their bodily size and raw strength. Even their profound strength was magnified tens of times stronger than the same realm cultivator with just their seventh rank profound aura which was equivalent to the profound aura of a seventh realm cultivator.

    Size does matter, especially when the Abyssals are twice as tall as Ji Yuan and they are 3 times more powerful with their profound power with the same cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin as he mustered, "Now I know why these eighth cultivation realms are constantly looking down on the mere seventh realm cultivators. The disparity between us are too weak."

    Xiang Li giggled, "But Big Brother, your grand cross evolves from a miracle profound art. I don''t think even an immortal cany their hands on any divine or miracle profound art so easily or you would already been killed several times by them. Also your grand crosses from your miracle sword art the Sacred Sword Pir and you have upgraded it to be 5 times stronger than a mere disy of your miracle profound art the Sacred Sword Pir. This itself allows you to cross boundary easily."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "That is in terms of profound power only and it is quite taxing for me. Thest three immortal cultivators that I''ve fought, I actually had a tough time¡­"

    He was naturally referring to his fight with the Divine Lord Kong Rong, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Rey Pugpatine.

    If he did not have his powerful sword domains to back him up, even his grand cross sword profound art could not be able to help him much.

    He actually knows that Xiang Li was actually trying to tter him but he did not mind at all.

    Just as he was about to leave, Anyang had suddenly said. "My lord, wait! Are you really going to leave just like this?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Yeah. My business here is done and I have exterminated the threats to my camp."

    Anyang giggled softly, "These Abyssals all have quite a number of profound treasures here, especially the first Abyssal that you have killed."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You know I don''t usually loot from my enemies. Let the lucky passer-by loot them and let this be their fortuitous encounter instead."

    Anyang pointed out, "The first Abyssal that had died have two celestial-step profound treasures. Are you going to forget about it? This is the Dark Abyssal, so this will only benefit the Abyssals."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I can''t really use the profound treasures of Abyssals and I don''t have the time to do so¡­"

    This was true.

    Even in the Celestial Realm, a high level profound treasure has to be refined by a cultivator for sometimes hundreds or even thousands of years for them to use it.

    Even for a divine sword, a high level cultivator can spend their lifetime just trying to divine harmonize with it.

    The reason why JI Yuan is able to harmonize with his divine sword so quickly is because he is a genius Sword Saint and also because the soul of his two divine swords are Xiang Li and Anyang now.

    Anyang giggled softly, "You don''t have to use them. You can give it to Xiang Li and I. We can refine it for you."

    Xiang Li giggled too, "I can help Big Brother to recycle their profound treasures. These Abyssals are hundreds and thousands of years old. They have quite arge number of profound treasures."

    Ji Yuan disyed a small frown as he seemed to be talking to the air if an observer would to see him standing alone in the forest, "The two of you are no longer Trial Spirits. Howe I didn''t know that you are able to refine and the recycle profound treasures other than wiping away profound signatures?"

    Xiang Liughed yfully, "It is part of our inherent ability. We can store the profound energies of these profound treasures within our soul sea."

    Ji Yuan muttered with a look of shock, "I didn''t know fairy spirits also have a soul sea¡­"

    "Please?" Anyang pleaded.

    JI Yuan frowned, "No use trying to tter me¡­"

    "You are so awesome today," Anyang giggled.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Alright then. I just let the two of you loot this time. Just this once."

    When he had said that, Anyang and Xiang Li had immediately materialized into view and they were delightfully collecting all the scattered profound treasures from the 7 dead Abyssals.

    Anyang was saying to Xiang Li, "The first Abyssal seemed to be quite rich. His celestial-step profound treasures have a profound signature that will alert someone else if it is taken away¡­"

    "But unfortunately, we are able to clean all the profound signatures and take away all the profound treasures without anyone knowing¡­" Xiang Li was giggling happily as she hastily picked all the profound treasures that had forcefully spilled out of the spatial storages as they cleaned the profound signatures on the profound treasures with great speed.

    Ji Yuan was left muttering with astonishment as he saw a great number of profound treasures, blood crystals, cultivation slips, profound pills and spirit herbs that were suddenly forced out by both Anyang and Xiang Li.

    Aura the Divine Tree had suddenly materialized from Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea and she was panicky shouting, "Big Sisters Xiang Li, Anyang. Please give me the spirit herbs to be used as my fertilizers¡­"

    Anyang giggled, "Don''t worry Aura. We will save the spirit herbs for you."

    "That''s right!" Xiang Li chuckled softly.

    Ji Yuan was left muttering weakly, "Howe I got a feeling that when Xiang Li and Anyang were Trial Spirits in the past, they were targeting the high level cultivators to try to kill them for their loots?"

    The Trial Spirits in a trial generally took the profound treasures that were left behind by the dead cultivators to recycle them into new profound treasures as needed. Or they simply took the profound treasures just to give it away to a new group of cultivators.

    In this case, Xiang Li and Anyang were mostly taking away the heavy divine weapons of the Abyssals to recycle them either into heavenly relics or new divine swords.

    Or so, that was what Ji Yuan had thought.

    Actually, Xiang Li and Anyang were actually taking the Abyssals'' divine weapons and other profound treasures for their own consumption to grow their emperor-step divine swords instead.

    Anyang showed Xiang Li a turnip shape celestial-step metallic object and she was giggling, "This celestial profound treasure is able to release vast quantities of deadly infernal profound energies in the vicinity if it were to be activated. Even a seventh rank profound beast would not be able to survive this. This Abyssal didn''t even have the chance to use it. Now I am going to refine it for my own use¡­"

    Xiang Li was giggling as she continued to clean more of the profound treasures that were scattered around, "I want the other celestial profound treasure for my own use¡­"

    Then Ji Yuan was suddenly shouting panicky to Xiang Li when he saw that she had just pocketed some profound pills, "Wait Xiang Li! Did I see you pocketing some profound pills? If it is useful for me, can you save some for me? Hahaha¡­"

 Chapter 985 A new temporary Homeland

    <h4>Chapter 985 A new temporary Homnd</h4>

    When Ji Yuan had returned to his camp, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er had already surrounded him anxiously and they were inspecting him for any injuries.

    Earlier, they had sensed the release of a huge dispersal of profound energies in the deep recess of the Bloody Forest and were greatly rmed.

    Although they had not fought with the Abyssals before, they know that their spirit talismans only had half the usual effect on the Abyssals as they cultivated the extreme abyssal body cultivation.

    The Abyssals are simply known for their brute strength and might; even a divine sword may not be able to hurt them and they were like the powerful profound beasts.

    "Yuan Beluga, are you really alright?" Little Jie''Er paced around him to check his body for any injuries.

    Tang Manni was sighing with great relief as she held onto Ji Yuan''s hands, "Are you hurt in any way?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Actually I am not injured at all."

    Tang Manni gasped with a small surprise, "There is only 1 Abyssal? You are back quite fast¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Actually, I could be even faster if not for Anyang and Xiang Li¡­

    But he quickly smiled to them, "There are actually 7 of them. But don''t worry, I have killed them all. They aren''t that tough."

    When Ji Yuan had said that, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er could only smile a little bitterly; it was only because Ji Yuan was too strong!

    In general, a spiritas divine consort is stronger than a celestial but they are weaker against the Abyssals but a celestial is much stronger against an Abyssal than a spiritas divine consort.

    It is said that only the Demonic Race''s powerful profound arts would have a better advantage than the Abyssal Race. Or maybe they are quite evenly matched.

    Tang Manni smiled gently, "It is good that¡­ Mas¡­ Ji Yuan is back now¡­"

    She had wanted to call him Master Ji Yuan as she was quite used to calling him that but Ji Yuan insisted that she tried to call him by his name instead.

    He hadughed it off by saying, "You know. I have been a sect leader for hundreds of years. But none of my friends outside actually called me Sect Master Ji Yuan. Rather, they prefer to call me Brother Ji Yuan or Rascal Ji Yuan. Now that you are with me, I would have none of the social etiquette. Surely you don''t want to make me feel ufortable, am I right?"

    To the Spiritas, a Master title means a high honor and it is often only given to a benefactor.

    Ji Yuan had helped Xu Yifei to restore her cultivation realm; that was the reason why Tang Manni and Xu Yifei had called him Master Ji Yuan as this was the highest personal honor that they could heap upon him.

    Ding Jie''Er was now looking quite relieved after checking that Ji Yuan was really fine.

    "Yuan Beluga," she sighed softly. "Why are you leading this group of people and why are you in this forest?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he quickly exined to her what had happened and why he was in the Bloody Forest.

    It had slipped his mind to exin to them.

    When Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni had returned with Ji Yuan to this ce, they were actually quite surprised to see so many people as they had thought that Ji Yuan was alone.

    Ji Yuan finally said, "After I have found a safe ce for them in the Bloody Forest to settle in, I shall go to the nearest Abyssal city to explore it."

    When he had dered his intention, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were both shocked; this n was too insane and they were rendered speechless by Ji Yuan''s boldness.

    They still could not figure how Ji Yuan is going to enter the Abyssal city in the first ce¡­

    "How?" Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er asked him at the same time.

    But Ji Yuanughed softly, "You shall know when it is time. But first, I got to settle these people first."

    Tang Manni smiled weakly, "So you don''t know if this the right ce for them?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he watched the happy group of people shifting their tents and ready to move on, "That''s right. Haha. This Dark Abyssal is too deste and this Bloody Forest at least provided some shelter, even food and water."

    Tang Manni took a look at the red and creepy deformed trees here before she asked, "So, we are looking for the other humanoid races in this ce? What if they are not friendly?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I have actually thought of that before. If there is a tribe here, even if they are a small tribe, they would still be a match for this group of people. After all, they are savages here and have learn to fight better than this group of people. Maybe even their lower cultivation realm can kill one of the people here¡­"

    Little Jie''Er nodded as she added, "Or maybe they reverted to their perverted and true evil self to ughter everyone when we are gone. We don''t know for sure."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I have actually thought of that before. But I don''t have a choice. I am struck with these people. Haha."

    Tang Manni smiled sweetly, "Actually you do have a choice. Why don''t you take them away from here? Back to your Celestial Realm? You can house them inside the Great Oracle Gate. The Divine Pce of the Great Oracle is safe even if we are not there."

    Then she quickly said with a look of hesitation, "If my lord Ji Yuan thinks this is a bad idea, then forget about it."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning with a jovial look on Tang Manni, "This is actually a good idea. Why didn''t I think of this before? Manni, you are really a smart maiden. Whether Destiny is angry or not because of this, I shall leave it to ater time. Haha¡­"

    Tang Manni flushed when she had received Ji Yuan''s praises and she shyly lowered her eyes to say gently, "I am your maiden now so it is only proper that I should share your burdens with you."

    Little Jie''Er giggled softly and there was a flush on her coyly countenance, "But I think Destiny won''t be upset with you, right? Just because she has left, I have asked her why she is helping me and she said that she is your maiden now."

    Ji Yuan was startled that Destiny had even told Little Jie and Tang Manni this.

    But he did not want to deny it as heughed weakly, "Well, technically there is a reason in this. But it is only because erm¡­ it is hard to exin¡­ I tell you more next time¡­ I promise¡­"

    Actually, Ji Yuan knows that Destiny was with him because he is the True Devil God incarnate but he did not her to love him because of this. Rather, he wants her to love him because he is Ji Yuan and not someone else.

    Unlike the other maidens, he could not reject Destiny directly because even though she looked gentle but he already had a taste of her profound might when they had previously met for the very first time inside her Delphi Pce; he did not want to die just yet.

    Plus, he did have a feeling for Destiny too.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly shouting to the people in the camp, "Everyone! I have a great news to announce to all of you! Everyone,e over here. Haha!"

    Old Fu blinked his eyes as he looked in the direction of Ji Yuan before he hastily shouted to the rest of the people, "Everyone please gather! Our Patriarch is going to announce something to us!"

    There were many excitedmotions from the 100 people in the camp as they all gathered hastily to Ji Yuan; actually Ji Yuan''s profound voice was audible enough to reach the ears of all the people in the camp and he did not need Old Fu to gather the attention of all of them to him.

 Chapter 986 Temptation in the Inner Delphi Palace

    <h4>Chapter 986 Temptation in the Inner Delphi Pce</h4>

    Ji Yuan quickly put all the 100 over men and maidens in the outer court of the Delphi Pce and said to them, "This ce shall be your temporary home from now onward."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er also erected a defensive array around the inner court of the Delphi Pce to prevent them from wandering inside by ident and also at the perimeter of the forests to prevent the profound beasts from ensnaring them.

    They warned the people, "This forest is extremely dangerous. So do not try to force your way out to the forest. There are sufficient fruit trees and fountains in the outer court for all of you so there is no reason for you to wander to the forest or the inner pce."

    Ji Yuan also said to Old Fu and the rest, "When I have returned to the Emperor Hall Sect that is in the Celestial Realm, I shall bring all of you there too."

    Old Fu asked curiously, "The Emperor Hall Sect? Aren''t we the Orthodox Sword Sect?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Actually I have already merged the Orthodox Sword Sect to the Emperor Hall Sect in the Celestial Realm. So there is actually no more Orthodox Sword Sect anymore."

    Old Fu said solemnly, "I am not sure if the Emperor Hall Sect will treat us well. After all, we are only the remote new Orthodox Sword Sect."

    He was actually thinking that there may be even more powerful cultivation masters in the Emperor Hall Sect that had even forced their Patriarch Ji Yuan to merge his celestial sect with them.

    Ji Yuan patted Old Fu andughed jovially, "Don''t worry. They will treat you well. It is because I am also the Sect Master of the Emperor Hall Sect. Haha¡­."

    Old Fu was startled, "Patriarch Ji Yuan is also the Sect Master of the Emperor Hall Sect?"

    Ji Yuan answered proudly, "Well, I am. Hahaha¡­ but this is another story¡­"

    Xia Jiajia had basically passed the leadership of the Emperor Hall Sect to him since he was the only surviving elder.

    Shangguan Yan his consort had then suggested that he made himself the sect leader instead and took charge of the Emperor Hall Sect instead.

    After Ji Yuan had settled everyone inside the dimension pocket of the skull ring, he waited for Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er toplete the defensive array first.

    It was because they would need some more time to do so.

    Ji Yuan could only watch as he had no experience in setting up theplicated profound arrays.

    Although he was not an expert in profound arrays, he could tell that Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were both high level experts in this.

    They were not only fast but they would even weave extremelyplicated arrays with their talismans.

    Ji Yuan could only say to them, "I have some abyssal divine weapons that may be useful to be used as the array''s cornerstone."

    This was the only help that he could render them.

    Once they were done, Tang Manni said shyly to Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan¡­ we have finally finished the defensive array now. Shall we go and take a rest inside the inner pce?"

    "That''s right." Little Jie''Er was also saying the same to him.

    Ji Yuan was actually not tired but he could see that setting up the profound array had drained them. So he answered, "Sure, why not. I am in no great hurry to continue my journey in the Dark Abyssal."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er then took him to a spacious bedroom within the inner sanctuary of the Delphi Pce.

    Ji Yuan then said to them, "Alright then, both of you can rest here until you have recovered from your exertions. I shall either be cultivating in the next room or I shall be with Old Fu at the outer Delpha Pce."

    Little Jie''Er smiled shyly, "Yuan Beluga, there is no next room."

    Ji Yuan was surprised; the inner Delpha Pce is so big and there are no more rooms?! This isn''t possible, right?

    Tang Manni was also smiling shyly and she was looking alluringly at Ji Yuan, "We don''t mean this. We mean that you can rest with us in the same room."

    Ji Yuan was surprised and he was frowning, "Rest in the same room? Then won''t I be disturbing your rest?"

    Tang Manni looked away shyly, "We¡­ are already your maidens, right? If our lord needs to rest then shouldn''t it be in the same room with your maidens?"

    Ji Yuan was startled; this was too big a hint to be missed¡­

    Little Jie''Er said softly as she clung onto him intimately and she was rubbing her bosoms on him, "Yuan Beluga, you will rest here with us? Right?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "It is not that I don''t want to rest in this ce. But I know myself best. I am afraid that I can''t restraint myself and I will turn into a beast of a man. Hahhaha¡­"

    Tang Manni had walked to him and she had suddenly hugged him tightly and her alluring eyes were looking at him with great affections, "My lord, we are already your maidens. There is nothing wrong with bing a beast of a man in front of us. Or, are you despising us because we are spiritas maidens and not your race?"

    "Of course, no." Ji Yuan said firmly, "I have never looked down on the two of you."

    Little Jie''Er looked up to him with watery eyes, "Then Yuan Beluga, prove it to us¡­ alright?"

    Tang Manni was also muttering with flustered looks, "Please take us and prove it to us¡­."

    Ji Yuan looked at their beautiful figures and their soft white bosoms, then he was looking down below¡­

    Xiang Li was demonizing Ji Yuan by whispering: Big Brother, if you don''t take them then you may not get another chance once you are over the bridge. Maybe there will be a more handsome man at the end of the bridge¡­"

    Ji Yuan was filled with lusty temptations and he had been suppressing his lusty urges for a long time.

    Xiang Li +1

    Ji Yuan +0

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had grabbed Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as he pushed them onto the bed and he was saying loudly, "I am going to be a beast of a man now¡­ an alpha beast of the beasts!"

    With that he had startled to rip off their clothing from them and to savage them.

    Their clothing was removed of any binding profound force and it was all too easy for Ji Yuan to strip them naked.

    Ji Yuan gasped with lusty wonderment when he saw the beautiful naked bodies of Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er in front of him.

    And he was staring hard at between their legs; it was a most beautiful scene.

    Then he quickly took off his robe and he was saying, "I am reallying¡­ I will y the two of them to the death¡­"

    Little Jie''Er giggled with great coyness when she saw that Ji Yuan had stripped her naked and she gasped shyly, "Yuan Beluga, I am your ything. Please be gentle with me¡­"

    Tang Manni was also saying shyly and her countenance was all flustered, "Please make me into your maiden¡­"

    Ji Yuan continued to strip as he was being consumed with lust, "I am going to fill the two of you up and I will make the two of you my depraved ves¡­"

    Once naked, he lurched himself on Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er¡­

    Soon the two maidens were screaming with ecstasy and were both moaning loudly amidst Ji Yuan''s heavy thrusting and his superior physique.

    Xiang Li in the meantime was giggling softly while Anyang was saying to Xiang Li: You have two more in your harem now.

    "I''m the secretst boss," Xiang Li chuckled with pride.

    -

    -

    -

    For three days and three nights, Ji Yuan were with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er/

    They had copted together and tried all kinds of y together.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was hugging the naked Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er together; he was also holding their breasts with one hand each and fingering their hard nipples with his fingers.

    Tang Manni smiled sweetly to Ji Yuan, "I''ve never known that when a man and maiden is together, they can experience such bliss."

    A coyly looking Little Jie''Er was looking at Ji Yuan and she was muttering, "This is my dreame true to be with Yuan Beluga¡­"

    Ji Yuan said to them with great affections, "We will never be separated. I shall take you everywhere with me¡­"

    Both Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er both nodded with endeaving affections; this was the moment that they had been waiting for so long to be happened. Although it had never happened while they were in the Spirit Divine Realm but it had eventually happened elsewhere.

 Chapter 987 Ji Yuans Slave Plan

    ?

    In the Red Algae Sea of the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    At the beach that were full of dead debris of the sea shells andrge skeletons of the fishes where the red ocean waves could be seen smashing furiously onto the dirty beach.

    A pathetic abyssal was being pushed violently on the dirty ground of the beach by three fierce andrger looking abyssals.

    This abyssal was called Gong Muk and he was only at the third cultivation realm; he was considered as a trash by the other abyssals since most young abyssals were able to reach the third cultivation realm when they reached adulthood.

    "Trash!" The leader of the group of the 3 abyssals shouted at him as he gave him a hard kick. "So what if we take your blood crystals? Remember that I am the son of the vige head here. Your job is to please me and you shall pay your due tribute to me! How dare you rebel against me! How dare you meddle in my business!"

    Gong Muk whimpered, "I dare not! Great Master Lou Kamburg! I am just taking pity on the human wench. She is in so much pain so I¡­"

    Lou Kamburg raised his legs and violently kicked Gong Muk on the head so hard that he shattered one of his head horns.

    "You dare to take pity on a human wrench. Just because I give you the special privilege to bring her food that you have dared to be friend with my living cauldron. How dare you!"

    Gong Muk sobbed as he continued to receive kicks from Lou Kamburg and his two henchmen, "Please spare me. I dare not do it again¡­"

    Lou Kamburgughed wickedly, "Of course you won''t dare to do it again. That is because this human wench is now dead!"

    Gong Muk was shocked, "You¡­ killed her? What has she done¡­ even if she is a ve¡­"

    Lou Kamburg raised his fist to punch Gong Muk furiously to the ground as he smirked coldly, "You dare to take pity on a human animal. Are you even an abyssal? Today I shall kill you with my fists and extract your blood core for my cultivation!"

    Gong Muk groaned with terrible pain as he was beingpletely suppressed by Lou Kamburg; his attacker was a powerful 5th upper cultivation realm abyssal while his two other sidekicks were upper 4th cultivation realm abyssals.

    He waspletely helpless against this Lou Kamburg or against the other two. After all, he had a lowly status in the abyssal vige and his job was to find food for the abyssals at the Red Algae Sea.

    He could only use hisst breath to bellow with great regret, "30 years of loss, 30 yearster I shall reim everything be a hero¡­"

    Lou Kamburg kicked him violently as he interrupted him, "You are still talking crap! 30 yearster, you will still be a pathetic ve while I will still be a high and mighty abyssal lord!"

    All of a sudden a voice gently floated over to them, "I will suggest that you let him off immediately or I shall let you taste what is meant by 30 yearster."

    Lou Kamburg and the two abyssals turned around them to check for the source of this gentle voice and saw that it hade from a male human.

    This male human was naturally Ji Yuan and he was being apanied by Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    It had been 2 days since they had left the Delphi Pce and had continued on their way.

    When Lou Kamburg saw how astonishing beautiful Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were, he was aroused immediately and he was immediately smiling as he entertained the thoughts of turning them into his living cauldrons and his ythings.

    His henchmen on the left roared withughter, "This is only a human and he dares to speak in such a manner to us. He must be courting death!"

    Lou Kamburg smirked coldly and he was already drooling, "I don''t know whose ves you belong to but this is my territory here. None of you shall escape from this ce¡­"

    He did not have the time to finish his sentence because he was suddenly beheaded by Ji Yuan''s emperor-step divine sword.

    As for the other two abyssals, Ji Yuan had literally hacked them to the death with only a disy of his divine sword and they did not even have the chance to say anything.

    All these happened too fast!

    But it was also because these three abyssals were too low level for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw that he had gained 43 points and he was thinking: Yuck! They are really so low level¡­

    Gong Muk was shocked that these 3 abyssals had died in such a quick manner that he knows that he had encountered a powerful celestial cultivator today.

    He immediately stammered pitifully, "Please. Do not kill me..."

    Ji Yuan had actually overheard some of their conversations earlier and he knows that this abyssal was not entirely a bad abyssal. So he said, "I can spare you but you have to answer my questions and do something for me."

    Gong Muk weakly said while still prostrating on the ground, "I''ll answer your questions and do your bidding. Just don''t kill me please."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Good!"

    Then he turned around and shouted to Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, "Come over here! It is safe now!"

    Tang Manni smiled alluringly, "My lord, we shall stay where we are instead. We can hear very clearly from where we are standing."

    Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni are both cultivators and they have exceptional sharp hearing. So they really could hear Ji Yuan where they were standing.

    Little Jie''Er shook her head to protest as well, "The fishy smell and stench on the beach is too strong. We prefer to stay here instead."

    Ji Yuan frowned to himself: I thought that they say that they will listen to whatever I ask them to do because I am their lord?

    Anyang said to him in his soul sea: Now that they have obtained you, you have lost the initiative for your bargains. Good luck in controlling your harem.

    Xiang Li on the other hand could not stopughing when she had heard Anyang.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said to Anyang: It is just that the stench in this ce is really too strong. They are still my depraved ves in the bedroom¡­

    But he quickly returned his attention to the abyssal, "First all, what is your name?"

    "Gong Muk is my humble name¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Well, I am Ji Yuan. What are you doing in this ce?"

    Gong Muk immediately pointed at the giant sea centipedes and other shelled insects in the, "I''m collecting this as food for the vige. Sometimes I can even obtain a blood crystal or two if I can get a reallyrge giant sea centipede."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly and he had also noticed the same look of great disgust from Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    He took a look at the giant sea centipedes and he immediately felt repulsive, "You mean you actually eat these centipedes here?"

    And he pointed at the giant crabs and lobsters, "You also eat these armored spiders and giant sea louses here?"

    Gong Muk protested immediately, "These are delicious food. Once you have tasted them, you know how heavenly these foods are."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he thought: No thanks. I am not eating any parasite insects no matter how delicious that they are able to whip it as a chef meal.

    In the Celestial Realm and most of the lower realms, this sort of food is served to the pigs or to the dogs.

    Ji Yuan merely said, "Well, we celestials or spiritas don''t eat insects, whether they are sea insects,nd insects or flying insects."

    "Insects?" Gong Muk was trying to understand some of the terms that Ji Yuan was talking about and he guessed that insects referred to the creatures with a hard shell.

    Then he took from his bag arge carrion worm and a snake, "Then do you eat these? These are really delicious!"

    Ji Yuan was stunned that the abyssals actually considered eating worms a delicacy. But he quickly said weakly, "I am a golden celestial so there is no need for me to eat. You can keep these foods for yourself¡­"

    When he said that, he could see from the corner of his eyes that Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er had a shocked look too.

    He then said, "Anyway, I want you to do something for you. I want you to be my master. Are you able to do that or not?"

    Gong Muk was shocked at this ridiculous request, "I am to be your master? But you are so much stronger than me¡­"

    JI Yuanughed jovially, "This is only a pretense of course. Will you be able to do that?"

    Gong Muk sighed with great relief, "Oh¡­ this is only a pretense. Sure, I can but why?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "There is no need to ask why. But how can I be sure that you won''t betray me?"

    Gong Muk said, "You are my benefactor today. Naturally I won''t betray you."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Mere words are useless and I won''t be taken my mere words. How many blood crystals can you earn in a year?"

    Gong Muk pondered to think, "With some luck, I can earn almost 100 blood crystals."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "If you y your part well, I will pay you 1 million blood crystals when our contract is over."

    Gong Muk was shocked, "1 million blood crystals¡­ I can be a sect leader or a vige head with so much wealth¡­"

    Ji Yuan then took out 10,000 blood crystals as he floated it to him, "Well, Gong Muk. Here is the downpayment first. Once it is all done, I shall pay you the rest."

    Gong Muk was truly shocked; 10 000 blood crystals could make him a really wealthy abyssal and he could even buy many ves.

    In fact, Ji Yuan could just pay him 10 000 blood crystals to just buy his loyalty.

    1 million blood crystals were simply overkill and too much!

    Naturally Ji Yuan knows that this Gong Muk could not even earn 10 000 or 1 million blood crystals in his lifetime.

    The reason why he was offering Gong Muk so much was because he wanted to ensure that he would not be betrayed.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Good. From now onward, you shall follow me and be my steward. On the outside, you shall be my ''master'' and we shall be your ves."

    Gong Muk asked curiously, "I don''t understand why we are doing it?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That is because we are going to the Royal City of Nefarious, the heart of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom."

    Gong Muk was truly shocked and was speechless¡­

    Even Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were looking shocked; they know that Ji Yuan intends to visit the nearest city but they did not know how Ji Yuan is going to aplish that.

    Ji Yuan''s n was to walk in broad daylight to the Royal City of Nefarious by pretending to be a ve of Gong Muk.

    This was too audacious and too crazy!

    Xiang Li weakly said: Big Brother, are you sure that you are not courting your own death in this manner?

    Even Anyang was in disbelief: This is¡­ actually my lord''s ns?!

    Ji Yuan frowned: Since we are already here in this ce, are we going to hide in the Bloody Forest and miss out on the splendid views of the Dark Abyssal?

    Anyang weakly answered: You are not here for sightseeing¡­

    Ji Yuanughed: Don''t worry. I don''t have a feud with anyone. I didn''t exactly kill their nobles or anything. I am a friendly cultivator. Haha¡­

    Author Note:

    I. I shifted the bedroom scene to thest chapter as this chapter is a little too long.

 Chapter 988 The Great Emperor Hall

    <h4>Chapter 988 The Great Emperor Hall</h4>

    The Celestial Realm in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Five Heavens Peak.

    When Xu Yifei had used the Transference Magic Circle that was taught to her by the Great Beyond Goddess, she was startled to find herself in a ce with many tall buildings.

    This was the very first time that she had used this Transference Magic Circle to travel through such a vast expanses of space and she feeling drained.

    "Where am I?" She asked herself curiously. "The spiritual aura in this ce is a little too weak¡­"

    But as soon as she was in this ce, an rm began to ring from the defensive arrays in this ce.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei could suddenly experience a sudden great pressure that was being exerted from the defensive arrays and was startled that this defensive array was actually quite formidable.

    Although it was formidable but the spiritas race is good inying the arrays and formations. And Great Xu Yifei was exceptional good in that.

    But as she was unraveling the defensive arrays in this ce, dozens of cultivators could be seen rushing angrily at this intruder.

    An old steward by the name of Old Liu Xiu began to shout aloud, "Who are you? How dare you barge into the Emperor Hall Sect!"

    Old Liu Xiu had been an old steward of the two sect prot¨¦g¨¦ leaders of Xia Jiaqing and Ji Yuan so he felt indignant that someone had dared to trespass the Emperor Hall Sect in his stewardship.

    With him was Nangong Xiu the sweetheart of Li Ye and also an elder of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Also, among the dozens of prot¨¦g¨¦s were Ji Hao and Jin Yuyan.

    Ji Hao was shouting angrily as he tried to take charge but he was coughing badly as he was badly injured by an unknown maiden just a couple of weeks ago. "Do you think that the Emperor Hall Sect is a ce where the Evil Cultivation Pce cane and go as you pleased?"

    Xu Yifei looked at Ji Hao and said gently, "You are injured and you should not re up like this. Also, I am not from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    When she had said that she was not from the Evil Cultivation Pce, Jin Hao and everyone was allughing jovially with disbelief.

    They could see that Xu Yifei was a most enticing maiden and moreover, she was also dressed in such a seductive manner.

    Jin Yuyan hummed coldly, "Such a beautiful maiden and yet you are so shameless as to pretend that you are not from the Evil Cultivation Pce. Do you think that we will actually believe your lies?"

    Nangong Xiu used to be a follower of Little Princess and she was also humming, "Even if you are able to remove the taboo of the Evil Cultivation Pce, do you think that you can hide your identity from my eyes? Will you surrender now or wait for us to disfigure you? Now shoot why you are here!"

    Xu Yifei said with a soft sigh, "I don''t know why I am here¡­ I am just here to help."

    She could not tell them that her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress the Great Beyond Goddess had sent her here to aid Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan. The Great Beyond Goddess had simply told her that she may be able to help once she had arrived there.

    "Help? I think you''vee to check if we are here, right?" A dovely chuckled could be heard and an astonishing beautiful maiden in white had suddenly walked into the ce and she was the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue!

    Along with her were Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Ling Tianshui, Saintess Yuluo, Shui Qingqing, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    They were all astonishing beautiful maidens and their appearances lit a beautiful scenery in this ce immediately.

    They had taken refuge in the Emperor Hall Sect because this ce was poor in spiritual aura and the Evil Cultivation Pce would never suspect that they may be hiding here.

    While they were here, they had hidden their profound ships below the deste mists to conserve their spiritual stones for a counter attack.

    Even though they were mostly from a powerful celestial background, they still could not fly their profound ships infinity and they needed to conserve their spirit stones for better uses.

    Xu Yifei said gently, "I didn''t lie to you. I am here to help. Someone sends me here to help."

    Xue Qianxue held onto her belly as sheughed lovingly, "What is your cultivation realm? How are you going to help us?"

    Xu Yifei said, "Seventh cultivation realm."

    When she had said that, Xue Qianxue and many of the maidens could not help but to burst out in jovialughter; they had nock of seventh realm cultivators among them. In fact, many of them are saintess."

    Xue Qianxueughed softly, "So this Saintess or Great Saintess here, what is your name? Are you here to capture me?"

    Xu Yifei said gently, "I am Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei. That should correspond to your great saintess here. I am from the Spirit Divine Realm and I have newly arrived here. And why should I capture you when I don''t even know who you are?"

    Xue Qianxue had stoppedughing and she was frowning all of a sudden, "You don''t know me?"

    She was the number 1 most hunted person by the Evil Cultivation Pce now and moreover everyone knows who is the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue as the Evil Cultivation Pce had distributed her portraits throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Xue Qianxue frowned a little unhappily that this Xu Yifei had actually imed not to know her, "Then are you an Ascended Celestial or a hermit cultivator?"

    Xu Yifei shook her head as she said gently, "I am not a celestial. I am a Spiritas."

    Spiritas?

    What is that?

    It was only then did Xue Qianxue and the others noticed that she had slightly pointed ears.

    Xue Qianxue had a new hostility in her golden eyes, "Hehe, you are a part of the deste race then."

    They had fought against Number 5 previously and she had pointed ears.

    When she had said that, many of the maidens had quickly disyed their divine swords as the deste race was more dangerous than any of the celestial evil cultivators.

    Xu Yifei immediately disyed her slightly bluish aura and said gently, "I am not a cultivator of the Deste Race. They have red auras and crimson eyes. I am a Spiritas from the Spirit Divine Realm. I want to see your sect leader."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi hummed coldly, "I am afraid that my sect leader is not in the Emperor Hall Sect. And he won''t be returning until the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over."

    Xu Yifei blinked her eyes, "Your sect leader has also gone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    She had heard that Master Ji Yuan was taking the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and that was why he was in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    Xu Yifei had a faint smile as she seemed to say to herself, "I have¡­ a good friend inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well¡­"

    Shangguan Yan could not resist interrupting, "This maiden here. First you say that you are a Spiritas and is a neer here. But you are now saying that you have a celestial friend inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Your story is a little too contradicting! So, are you going to create a false name for your celestial friend too?"

    Xu Yifei looked at Shangguan Yan with unwavering eyes, "Master Ji Yuan is a real celestial person and a close friend of mine. There is no need for me to make up his name¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was quite startled to see Xue Qianxue, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi and everyone was all gasping with shock as they muttered with shock, "Did she just mentions Ji Yuan¡­"

    Xue Qianxue looked at Xu Yifei briefly before she asked, "Do you know that Ji Yuan is the sect master of the Emperor Hall Sect here?"

    Xu Yifei was shocked, "Master Ji Yuan is the¡­ sect master in this ce? But the spiritual aura here is a little too sparse¡­"

    When Xue Qianxue saw that Xu Yifei looked shocked, she continued to say. "You don''t know that we are his consorts here?"

    Xu Yifei looked at the many beautiful maidens here and was truly shocked, "You are all Master Ji Yuan''s maidens?"

    Saintess Yuluo smiled as she said, "This Maiden Xu Yifei here. I am Sword Saintess Yuluo and I am also the mother consort of Ji Hao here¡­"

    She then pointed to Ji Hao and said wryly, "He is Ji Yuan''s son. So you really know Ji Yuan? Where did you know him?"

    Xu Yifei was surprised as she took another look at Ji Hao before she returned to look at Saintess Yuluo, "I''ve met Master Ji Yuan in the Spirit Divine Realm where he is taking his trial."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had met Ji Yuan in the lower realm and she was even Ji Yuan''s prot¨¦g¨¦ master. She stepped forward to say, "I have also met Ji Yuan when he was in the lower mortal realm. So her story may be true after all¡­"

    When she had just arrived in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, no one believed that she actually knows Ji Yuan too.

    Therefore, she would like to believe in this Xu Yifei. Moreover, Xu Yifei did not look like a scheming maiden and she seemed like a maiden that was untainted.

    Shui Qingqing stepped forward as well, "Maybe we can allow her to finish her story first?"

    She was more innocent than any of the maidens and she also tended to believe in Xu Yifei too.

    Ling Tianshui nodded, "We should give her a chance to tell us about Ji Yuan in the Spirit Divine Realm. If she really knows him then we would know that she is telling the truth."

    Hua Wuwu curiously asked Xu Yifei, "Do all your spiritas maidens dress the way you do?"

    Xu Yifei smiled gently, "It is verymon in my Spirit Divine Realm."

    Hua Baiyue seized to add, "Then Ji Yuan must be having a lot of fun in the Spirit Divine Realm, right? Did he bed many of the spiritas maidens in the Spirit Divine Realm?"

    Xu Yifei looked a little startled, "Master Ji Yuan is an honorable man. He has a good reputation and honor. No, he is always maintaining a respectful rtionship with the spiritas maidens there."

    Hua Baiyue shook her head, "Then I am convinced that your Ji Yuan and our Ji Yuan are two different persons¡­"

    Hua Wuwu agreed too, "Our Ji Yuan is a big lecherous wolf for sure. Why do you think he has so many maidens here waiting for him?"

    However Xu Yifei simply smiled, "Master Ji Yuan says he have many maidens in the Celestial Realm. So it is true."

    Xue Qianxue asked her curiously, "Since you know that Ji Yuan have many maidens here, you still think he is not a lecherous man?"

    Xu Yifei returned a flustered look before she could mutter out her heart, "I¡­ like Master Ji Yuan¡­ and I want to be with him¡­ and that is why I am here."

    Everyone: ¡­

 Chapter 989 The Royal City of Nefarious

    <h4>Chapter 989 The Royal City of Nefarious</h4>

    Ji Yuan was now at the foot of the Royal City of Nefarious with Gong Muk, which was the heart of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    He had also lowered his cultivation realm to the 2nd level with his mystic eyes skill and he was looking just like a normal human.

    Bordering the Nefarious Blood Kingdom, were 4 equally powerful kingdoms.

    From what Gong Muk had told him, the abyssal cultivation sects in the Dark Abyssal had to obey the wishes of an abyssal king.

    The abyssals used to have an abyssal emperor a long time ago but the current abyssal kings are not powerful enough to form an abyssal empire.

    As for Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, they had returned to the Delphi Pce that was inside the skull ring as they did not want to be gazed upon by the abyssals.

    Since Ji Yuan also did not want them to be seen by the abyssals, he also had the intention of letting them to be in the Delphi Pce as they waited for him.

    Now Ji Yuan was chained by Gong Muk as he was being led into the Royal City of Nefarious without any troubles from the abyssal guards there.

    But of course, his chains could easily be shattered by Ji Yuan once he had disyed his true cultivation strength. So whether he was chained or not, was not important.

    Ji Yuan could see towering abyssals everything that were all easily twice his height.

    Many of the abyssals did not even bother to look at him because he was a merely a male ve and not even a beautiful curiosity.

    Ji Yuan also saw many chained men and maidens of the celestial, spiritas and deste humanoid races that were the same as him; they were all ves.

    The men and maidens were also mostly naked, especially the maidens and they were also paraded like wares in front of the abyssals.

    Ji Yuan suppressed his angry impulsions to attack these abyssals and to free all the ves since doing so may lead to them being killed by the numerous abyssals here.

    Also, it was quite impossible for Ji Yuan to fight against the entire city of abyssals; he was not a one man army with unlimited profound strength like in the cultivation stories that could weirdly be so strong that they could destroy entires and yet they often fight on the ground without destroying the entire.

    Ji Yuan also saw that there were many types of abyssals around.

    Gong Muk proceeded to introduce the Red Abyssals, Green Abyssals and Brown Abyssals to him. Also, there were also the Royal Abyssals that were ck and they had more horns on their heads.

    Ji Yuan recalled that he seemed to have killed a royal abyssal and that he even had two celestial-step profound treasures which were all plundered by Xiang Li and Anyang.

    Also, there were also other weird abyssal races like the almost humanoid Fells; the males have horns like rams while the females have smaller horns. Their facial colors ranged from red, purple and blue.

    Gong Muk told Ji Yuan that the female Fells with the pinkish colors were the more desirable abyssals and they were often the concubines or the sexual ves of the powerful abyssal lords as they were much tougher than the females of the non-abyssal races.

    Ji Yuan weakly thought: These abyssals are all twice as tall as me. Of course, these non-abyssal maidens will break¡­

    He also saw the Hulks, which were 3-4 heads taller than him and they looked almost human except that they were all quite muscr. There were Grey and Green Hulks.

    Gong Muk said to him, "The Grey Hulks are the intelligent master race while the more muscr Green Hulks were actually the inferior ones and mostly served as guards or ves."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "So if these hulks are a type of abyssal race, then they would also be ves of the other abyssals?"

    Gong Muk sighed heavily, "The dirt poor and low cultivation realm abyssals are often lowly ves to the powerful abyssals. The abyssals are a cruel people even to their own. Many of the abyssal ves are actually from the other abyssal kingdoms and are captured during a raid."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan spotted a winged humanoid flying with great speed ahead.

    Ji Yuan asked Gong Muk, "What is that race?"

    Gong Muk looked startled as well but he answered nevertheless, "That is an Ancient Old One. They are quite rare and rarely seen. I don''t know why he is here but he is definitely not from around here."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Ancient Old One? That doesn''t exactly sound like a race name."

    Gong Muk whispered, "It is said that the Ancient Old Ones were once the supreme rulers of the Dark Abyssal before the Coming."

    "The Coming?" Ji Yuan frowned, "What is that?"

    Gong Muk said with great reverence, "There are 3 main abyssal events which are the Beginning, the Tiding and the Coming. The Ancient Old Ones are like the holy priests of the abyssal races and they are untouchable. They had their own abyssal cultivation sect in the Nightfall Heights and all the kings of the abyssal kingdoms ord to them the highest religion respect."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I didn''t know that the abyssals have a religion."

    Gong Muk said respectfully, "We believe in the Holy Communism."

    Ji Yuan weakly asked, "May I know what is the beliefs behind this Holy Communism thing?"

    Gong Muk answered him with pride, "We believe in the Holy Communism and the Ancient Ones hope to create a ssless society which everyone shares the benefits ofbor and the central state controls all property and wealth."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What the heck? ssless society? Then howe you still have ves? And rich and poor abyssals?"

    Gong Muk said casually, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, this is only your misunderstanding about the Holy Communism. Naturally we still need leaders to be in charge to achieve utopia in the end. The rule of the leaders therefore must be absolute over themon citizen''s personal choice and his wealth."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "This is called utopia? It sounds more like dictatorship or authoritarian."

    Gong Muk exined and he could not see that Ji Yuan was being sarcastic, "The road to utopia is the final phase and it is the hardest. It requires all nonmunists to be destroyed in order for the Holy Communist to achieve supreme equality. For this, we strive to strive to promote the Holy Communism through the Six Immortal Realms by waging wars and to re-educate them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is a pure power y and only the dictator calls the shots here. Are you stupid or what?

    Gong Muk exined, "Do you wish to be converted to the Holy Communist and bring it back to your world? It will surely benefit your world very well."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No," He weakly answered.

    Gong Muk looked disappointed and said regretfully, "All the other worlds are under the depraved rule of the dictatorship. It is a pity that you cannot set them freed."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This ce has a king, right? Surely you don''t vote for your king, right?"

    Gong Muk smiled with pride, "Our king is an elected king. He is elected every 5 years and he is a popr king. He has 100% of the votes."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He bitterly said, "He sure sounds like a popr king."

    Gong Muk grinned, "Yes, he is a popr king. He is always personally leading and in charge of all the crisis in our Nefarious Blood Kingdom. Right now, he has envisioned a One Road and One Belt for the abyssal kingdoms to forge better trade and wealth together."

    Ji Yuan said sarcastically, "Well, he sounds like he wants to be an Abyssal Emperor."

    Gong Muk grinned with great pride, "Then we shall dly support him to be the abyssal emperor!"

    Ji Yuan thought weakly to himself: Well, I guess that these abyssals are all brainwashed by this Holy Communism thing. This religion is so evil and is like a cancer that will spread to the rest of the other worlds. The poor is the majority actually. This evil doctrine sounds nice in theory and it benefits the majority of the poor but it is actually an evil scheme by these elite abyssals to control the masses. Also, because they know that they would never seed in bringing utopia to the masses that they even use this evil doctrine to bring wars on the other races after everyone is converted to Holy Communism here. What ame excuse."

    Fairy Anyang said to Ji Yuan: This Holy Communism has actually been spread by the abyssals to the Celestial Realm and the Immortal Realm in the past. It had caused many wars and the abyssals are able to convert many to their cause by brainwashing them with their great lies. At one point of a time, they had even disguised this Holy Communism as Socialism and Authoritarian. This is an utter false and evil doctrine or religion movement to benefit only a single person by pretending to be a kindly head of state while suppressing all their freedom and wealth for the powerful.

    Ji Yuan asked: They are not sharing any wealth with this Holy Communism doctrine?

    Fairy Anyang giggled: The powerful share the wealth by reaping it from the poor. The whole system forces them to join the Holy Communism movement or be punished by the leadership. That is why this Gong Muk appeared to be delightful with pride about any proimed achievements of the kingdom even though it got nothing to do with him anyway. He is an example of a brainwash abyssal by the Holy Communism. The poor exists to adte the leaders and the state only.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said: Then these Ancient Old Ones may be more influential and dangerous than we have thought for creating such a dangerous and evil doctrine.

 Chapter 990 Gossips in the Tavern

    <h4>Chapter 990 Gossips in the Tavern</h4>

    Gong Muk asked Ji Yuan where he wanted to go in the Royal City of Nefarious.

    Ji Yuan whispered, "Let''s go to the tavern first. It is where we can easily pick up fresh news. Also, we can find our lodgings at the same time."

    With that, they had entered a big tavern that was called the Double Stabbing Swords in the middle of a busy street.

    Gong Muk easily found a table after he had dropped 10 blood crystals to the serving abyssals, "Get me a seat."

    With that, Ji Yuan and Gong Muk had a corner seat in the tavern.

    Barely had they sat down, many attractive Fells maidens began to walk seductively to Gong Muk as they hoped to attract his attention.

    However Ji Yuan shook his head to give a hint to Gong Muk that he wished to be alone.

    So Gong Muk grunt, "I don''t need any maidens. I am here to eat only."

    This caused the many attractive Fells maidens to look disappoint but they were soon patronizing the other tables since they could see that Gong Muk was not a high level abyssal anyway.

    Ji Yuan saw that these Fells maidens

    Gong Muk then asked Ji Yuan, "Do you want to eat anything?"

    Ji Yuan took a look at the exotic foods that were on the other tables and said bitterly, "No thanks."

    Gong Muk ordered plenty of foods and he was greedily savoring the food since he was now rich and it was all thanks to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw that there were giant snails, oysters, carrion worms, giant louses, giant cockroaches and many exotic insects on the table and he was stunned.

    Gong Muk on the other hand was already drooling from the exotic foods that were on the table and he wasted no time in picking a giant snail and to suck it out of its shell and into his mouth.

    He did not forget that he was a servant of Ji Yuan and asked him soon after, "Empyrean Ji Yuan, do you want to try this? This is really delicious and it is also a popr food among the humans in the lower realms."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "No, thanks. I don''t eat insects."

    Gong Muk protested immediately, "This isn''t an insect but a slime."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Anything that has a skeleton bone on the outside is an insect to me. It is the characteristics of an insect. I can''t eat it as it is considered to be an unclean food for me."

    All of a sudden there were worms spewing from Gong Muk''s mouth as he chewed the giant snail, "Wow, there are worms in this snail''s stomach. This is a real bonus!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    A beautiful Fells maiden had suddenly approached with a wry smile and she was carrying arge dish of giant maggots. "These blood maggots are the most expensive food in our tavern. I hope that this great abyssal here would enjoy your meal."

    Gong Mukughed delightfully and his eager mouth was already watering when he saw the blood maggots crawling in therge bowl that was brought by this Fells maiden. "I''ve always wanted to try your tavern''s specialty blood maggots."

    The Fell maiden smiled and winked at Gong Muk, "These blood maggots are fed with the flesh and blood of the humans. It is an absolute delicacy."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Gong Muk grinned at the Fell maiden as he tossed her a blood crystal as a tip and he had pped her bared butt, "Leave the blood maggots here and go."

    The Fell maiden was delighted by the tip and she gave Gong Muk another wink before she walked off.

    Gong Muk began to feast hungrily and he also drank a ss of blue liquid of an exotic shell fish.

    Ji Yuan was totally speechless when he saw the wide variety of insects on the table; this was the most disgusting foods that he had ever seen and yet to the abyssals, these foods were the most desirable delicacies!

    He was thinking luckily that Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were not here.

    Xiang Li and Anyang on the other hand were looking as disgusted as Ji Yuan.

    Aura on the other hand was saying: Wow, these foods can be my fertilizers too. Mas¡­ master, I want too¡­

    But Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her with a bitter voice: You are not getting any insects into my soul sea. Not ever.

    While Gong Muk was eating, Ji Yuan was naturally standing behind Gong Muk and pretending to massage his back; after all, Ji Yuan was a ve of Gong Muk and he should act like a ve.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Darn. I have regretteding to this realm now¡­

    He spent some time in the tavern and soon found out that there were not much of any interesting news; these abyssals were just simply interested to boast about martial abilities or sexual conquests.

    When he saw that Gong Muk had almost finished eating and he was looking really satisfied with his meal, he whispered to him. "Let''s go to our lodgings in this tavern¡­"

    All of a sudden, there was an excited brown abyssal that had rushed into the tavern and he was shouting to everyone. "Did you hear the news yet?!!!"

    The noisy tavern had suddenly died down as almost all the abyssals were looking in the direction of this excited brown abyssal; obviously they had not heard of his news yet.

    Actually this brown abyssal also knows that none of the abyssals in the tavern had heard of his news yet and he was the first one to know. As a long time patron of this tavern, he was naturally eager to announce this news to all the abyssals in the tavern so that he could receive their acims.

    The owner of this tavern was a red abyssal with a fourth cultivation realm and he was growling to the brown abyssal, "Kong Jumal, your news has better to be good. If it is, then I shall buy your drinks tonight."

    Kong Jumal was naturally the excited brown abyssal that had just barged excitingly into the tavern. He wasted no time in shouting exciting, "This news will stun all of you! Our King, Gong Magog has proposed a marriage for the Cardinal Priestess toe to the Royal City of Nefarious in 2 weeks'' time or he will sack the Nightfall Heights. Guess what? The Cardinal Priestess has agreed toe and marry our king!"

    Many of the abyssals were suddenly excited, including Gong Muk and they were all talking loudly to discuss this news.

    The tavern owner said to Kong Jumal with a grin, "You have earned yourself free drinks on the house!"

    "Our King intends to be an abyssal emperor!"

    "He is going to take the Cardinal Priestess as his consort!"

    "This is a breaking news indeed!"

    "Holy shit, this can''t be true¡­."

    "The Cardinal Priestess will actually humble herself?"

    "Our king is really powerful¡­"

    "Our King really hurt the pride of the Ancient Old Ones¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked Gong Muk curiously, "Why is all the abyssals so excited about this news?"

    Gong Muk beamed with pride, "Well, if you remember what I have told you previously. The Ancient Old Ones are like the holy priests of the abyssal races. And their highest order priestess is the Cardinal Priestess. They are actually vowed to celibacy and they had rarely married outside their own race. If our King dares to take the Cardinal Priestess as his consort, this means that the Cardinal Priestess is now forced to ept his authority as superior over their old religion¡­"

    Then he added with a big grin, "It also means that the Cardinal Priestess has lost the support of the other abyssal kingdoms and is willing to ept our King Gong Magog as the abyssal emperor. This is the insane power of our Holy Communism!"

    Ji Yuan said, "Well, I have heard that if this Cardinal Priestess does not agree with your king then he shall sack the Nightfall Heights."

    Gong Muk grinned, "The Ancient Abyssal Cathedral is situated at the Nightfall Heights and that is where the Cardinal Priestess is."

    Ji Yuan was curious, "Howe the other abyssal kingdoms are suddenly not supporting the Cardinal Priestess anymore? I thought your Ancient Old Ones are considered untouchable?"

    Gong Muk bended down and he whispered, "I''ve heard that a totem great abyssals from up there, the Great Abyssal Realm is here. With a powerful immortal abyssal supporting our king, does the Cardinal Priestess still have a choice?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Well, this matter doesn''t concern me. I am not interested in the politics of the abyssals. Also, this Cardinal Priestess must be an ugly abyssal and not to my taste."

    Gong Muk looked shocked as he stared at Ji Yuan, "Please do not say that! The Cardinal Priestess is the most beautiful abyssal maiden in the entire Dark Abyssal Realm!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes with a sheepish look and he was not convinced. But still, he lied, "Yeah, right."

    The Abyssals were definitely not to his taste!

 Chapter 991 Maiden Juan Xianâ€™Er

    <h4>Chapter 991 Maiden Juan Xian''Er</h4>

    Gong Muk had reserved two rooms for them as Ji Yuan did not want to sleep with him.

    Ji Yuan had naturally picked the poor man''s quarter while Gong Muk had picked the better room; it was because he was technically Gong Muk''s ve.

    As Ji Yuany on the rough bed in his room just to test the bed, he had suddenly heard a knock.

    He was frowning immediately; did Gong Muk forget something or what?

    He looked a little impatient because he was thinking of sneaking into the Delphi Pce to look for Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er since he was starting to miss them already.

    There was actually no intention of sleeping or resting in this rough bed at all after he had tested the bed.

    As there was a small defensive array in this room, he could not use his divine sense to check who it was so he had to open the door.

    "Who is that? Is that you Gong Muk? Why didn''t you say a word?"

    But when he opened the door, he was shocked; it was because a really alluring maiden in a ck robe was smiling at him and she did not look like an abyssal.

    She was an absolute breathtaking maiden and also a stunning maiden.

    He saw that she got long pointed ears and guessed that she may be from a deste race or a spiritas.

    This alluring maiden was really beautiful and she was smiling warmly at him.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and asked curiously, "Do I know you?"

    Then he remembered the Fells maidens earlier at the tavern and they were trying to prostitute themselves at Gong Muk.

    So he quickly said, "Please leave. I don''t need a maiden to warm my bed for me."

    The maiden seemed to ponder briefly before she smiled wryly, "Handsome, are you sure that you do not need any other special services?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I actually do not need any special services at all."

    It was the truth; he was thinking of asking for his special services with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Erter.

    The alluring maiden took a look inside his room before smiling wryly, "You are alone. Shall we chat inside your room first?"

    Ji Yuan saw that this alluring maiden was actually one of the most alluring maidens that he had ever seen. Unfortunately, she was merely a second cultivation realm cultivator and her great beauty would fade away quickly as she aged rapidly.

    Although she looked tempting but Ji Yuan was a man of principle and he would not allow a maiden with special needs toe into his room for no other reason.

    So he said, "No thanks. You may go now. I am not free to entertain you."

    The alluring maiden smiled wryly, "Maybe you want to hear me out first before you m the door?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What is that you want to say?"

    The alluring maiden giggled softly, "I saw you earlier downstairs. In the tavern. You are with a abyssal. But your cultivation realm is so much higher than that abyssal. Why are you hiding your cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan was startled; how the heck did she knows?

    But he pretended to beposed and said, "Maiden, you are mistaken. I am merely at the lowly second cultivation realm and I cannot even be considered as a true cultivator. I don''t even cultivate, you know. My master forbids me from cultivating."

    The alluring maiden giggled even more, "If you can hide your cultivation realm, so can I. I am sure that you have noticed that I have also lowered my cultivation realm to your level. I know that you are a seventh cultivation realm celestial. And you are stronger than most of the abyssals here too. But somehow¡­ your cultivation realm is at the 8th level but you are not yet an immortal. How did you manage to aplish this?"

    Ji Yuan was truly stunned: How the heck did she knows my true cultivation realm?!

    He was thinking that this alluring maiden was not simple at all¡­

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were looking a little startled.

    The alluring maiden smiled wryly at him, "Why don''t you invite me for a little chat? Or do you want me to shout to everyone that you are a celestial cultivator spy here?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to say bitterly, "Pleasee in, maiden."

    The alluring maiden walked into his room and she started to wander around briefly as though she was the mistress of this room.

    "Are you sure that you can''t afford a better room?"

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "This is my choice. So what do you want to chat about?"

    The alluring maiden giggled softly, "First of all, what is your name?"

    Ji Yuan frowned; this was really a new form of greeting but he answered nevertheless, "I am Ji Yuan. What is your name? And your true cultivation realm?"

    The alluring maiden giggled softly, "You can call me Maiden Juan Xian''Er. As for my cultivation realm, I am at the seventh level, if it pleases you to know. Therefore, I am not your match because you are one cultivation realm higher than me."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Surely you didn''te to my room just to know me, right?"

    Juan Xian''Er shook her head as she looked at Ji Yuan, "You know. You are a really beautiful man. The most beautiful man that I''ve ever seen."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I don''t like to be ttered."

    But secretly, he was pleased with the ttering and his patience to listen increased by 1000%.

    Juan Xian''Er''Er smiled alluring, "So Ji Yuan, why don''t youe to my room then? I have something for you to do. This will greatly benefit you and you won''t regreting to my room."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he weakly said, "Isn''t this too quick? We haven''t even got a chance to warm up yet¡­"

    Then his eyes were already wandering on her flimsy robe and her full bosoms¡­

    Actually, this maiden was really an attractive maiden¡­

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly, "After you havee to my room, we can slowly warm up. I need a help from you and this may be something that you will find it hard to reject."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Maybe you can tell me what help you need first?"

    Juan Xian''Er continued to smile alluringly, "It is hard to put it in words. I can only show you what is in my room first."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly and thought: Are you nning an ambush for me in your room or drug me in your room to take all my possessions. You really think that I am a 3 year old and will fall for your trick?

    Juan Xian''Er gently touched Ji Yuan and smiled alluringly, "Beautiful man, what are you afraid of? You will actually be scared ofing to my room?"

    Ji Yuan saw that this breathtaking and stunning maiden was trying to charm him to get him to her room.

    He answered with a grin, "I will be scared? I am more afraid that you will be afraid of me instead. Hahaha¡­"

    Anyang said to the giggling Xiang Li: Why is that I got a bad feeling about this¡­

    But Xiang Li continued to giggle: This big sister is so beautiful. How could it be dangerous?

    Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 992 Ji Yuan, Are you a Man or Not?

    <h4>Chapter 992 Ji Yuan, Are you a Man or Not?</h4>

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly to Ji Yuan and she had suddenly turned around to walk off, "Come. Let''s go to my room¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had pped her lovely butt and this startled Juan Xian''Er who had suddenly turned around with a sh of anger, "What are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You are such a breathtaking maiden that I cannot resist it."

    He was actually doing it on purpose just to see her reaction; it was clear that this maiden did not have the intention to surrender her body to him or her reaction would not be in this way.

    Juan Xian''Er quicklyposed herself to smile again, "I mean, why are you so impatient? You can wait until you are in my room."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "My room or your room. Does it really matter?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "Did you forget that I need your help in something in my room? Also, I am a lowly maiden. There will be someone that you will be interested in that will be in my room."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "There will be someone more beautiful than you?"

    This Juan Xian''Er was really beautiful enough and he would not believe that there would be another maiden as beautiful as Juan Xian''Er here. Even among his maidens, this Juan Xian''Er could be considered a top grade great beauty.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "You¡­ don''t seem to be convinced? It is as simple as following me to my room. Or are you really afraid?"

    Ji Yuan frowned again, "I actually have the guts of an iron donkey, you know. It is not a matter of afraid of not¡­"

    He was actually thinking: what if there is a fourth wall here and the others may think that he is stupid to go to her room when he obviously knows that this is a bait? If he goes, then won''t he be ridiculed as stupid and a lecherous cultivator? But then if he did not go, some others may think that he is a coward and even think too much.

    But there was a way to prove that his deduction was right.

    So he grinned, "I will go."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly to him, "I know that you are a smart man to make this choice. Trust me, you won''t regret this."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course I am a smart man!"

    When he had said that, Xiang Li and Anyang were both shaking their heads with a hopeless resignation; they would not dare to call Ji Yuan a very smart cultivator.

    Whether Ji Yuan was a smart cultivator or not, they knew that he had the curiosity of a cat and he would torture his soul to no ends if he could not see what this Juan Xian''Er was up to.

    Therefore, they know that he would not drive her away after she had tried to bait him.

    Anyang weakly whispered to Xiang Li: Our lord, he says this is a trap but he is still going there. I can''t believe it¡­

    Actually, she believed that Ji Yuan would surely go to this Juan Xian''Er room but she could not believe it that Ji Yuan would still go to her room despites knowing that this may be a trap.

    Xiang Li asked Anyang: Why do you think that Big Brother stilles to this ce even though he knows that this is the Dark Abyss and why do you think Big Brother still dares toe to this abyssal city despites knowing the dangers?

    Anyang asked: Why?

    Xiang Li covered her face: It is because he is trying to prove that his ''instinct'' is right.

    Anyang: ¡­

    As usual, Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li and Anyang, who were talking in his inner spiritual sea. Instead, he thought to himself: My dear Manni and Little Jie''Er. I apologize for being a littlete tonight. Hahaha¡­

    -

    -

    -

    Juan Xian''Er room was bigger and cleaner than Ji Yuan''s room.

    After all, his was a ve room while Juan Xian''Er room looked more like a proper guest room.

    Heughed, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er, is this the reason why you have chosen to be intimated with me in your room instead of my room? I didn''t know that you have a thing for cleanliness."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly at him, "This isn''t what you think it is."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course. We have a most ''clean'' rtionship. Hahaha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Do you remember that I have a favor to ask from you?"

    JI Yuan had suddenly remembered it and he asked curiously, "Yes. So what is it that you can''t tell me in my room?"

    Juan Xian''Er had suddenly be solemn and she said, "Your room may not be safe from scrying so it is better that we talk here instead."

    "Oh?" Ji Yuan was frowning; he is a ve. No abyssal would be so stupid to waste their time on a slowly ve on him.

    On the other hand, he was quite curious why this maiden would be able to tell his true cultivation realm. She must have some powerful profound treasure or ability, right?

    He was naturally going to ask her this very soon as he knows that she would not tell him in his room where she was not rxed. If she had wanted to tell him then she would have already told him in his room earlier.

    Therefore he was really curious who she was and how did she manage to read his cultivation realm.

    But first, he got to see what games that she was ying.

    He was the daredevil Ji Yuan and while he was cautious about his trials, he was also someone that dared to challenge the logic of his enemies by pretending to be a suspecting fool.

    So, it did not matter to him if his enemy thought that he was a lecherous cultivator and he had decided to y along with this.

    After all the Trial Spirit had also said that she won''t send him to the most dangerous part of the trial too.

    And Trial Spirit won''t lie.

    Juan Xian''Er asked solemnly, "Well, have you heard of King Gong Magog?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I have heard of him but erm, I am not really interested in any males. I have heard that he is going to marry an abyssal maiden by the title of the Cardinal Priestess."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "That''s right¡­ you are right¡­"

    She was suddenly sighing, "This King Gong Magog is actually a most vicious and power hungry abyssal king that wants to spread the Holy Communism throughout the Dark Abyssal."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Well, all dictators are like this."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled too, "He is a dictator but he likes to im that he is a liberal and popr king that is elected by the people instead and he has the ambition to be an abyssal emperor."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "I have heard that after he has married the Cardinal Priestess, he would be an abyssal emperor. So this Cardinal Priestess can really help him to be an abyssal emperor?"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "Because the Cardinal Priestess is considered to be invible and this King Gong Magog dared to vite her. That is why he is more ruthless than the other abyssal kings and more powerful too. Also, he has the aid of an immortal totem abyssal to help him too."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, if he wants to be an abyssal emperor, there is nothing that we can do. Surely we are not here to talk about this King Gong Magog, am I right?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly, "We are actually here to talk about something else."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I know it, haha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "The n name of this King Gong Magog is Gog and he is the first abyssal emperor. All the Gogs are royal abyssals and they are rare even in the Dark Abyssal. And this King Gong Magoges from the infamous Xi Lineage. To differentiate his n lineage from the other members of the Gog n, this King Gong Magog used the n name of Gong."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly as he thought: Howe we are still talking about this King Gong Magog?

    Juan Xian''Er saw his disinterested look and smiled, "You don''t seem eager to know more about this King Gong Magog who is the king of this Nefarious City and Nefarious Blood Kingdom?

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "No, I am just thinking that all the Xi that I had met previously are all rotten apples. Hahaha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "I''m d that you think the same way as me."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Erm, so what is this help that you want me to do? Surely you don''t mean to ask me to erm, assassinate this King Gong Magog? I must first tell you this that I won''t do anything like this. I still value my little life."

    He could see that this Juan Xian''Er seemed to hate this King Gong Magog.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "It isn''t that. In fact, this may be an easy task for you and you can do it in my room."

    Ji Yuan started to look at the beautiful and sensuous body of Juan Xian''Er from up to down; he could easily rip apart her revealing robe and this was really an easy task. In fact, he got a sudden feeling with his spear when he was looking at her¡­

    He grinned, "Well since you have already said so, I am sure that this may be an easy task for me to do. Haha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Come to my bed with me then."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "This is a little too fast, am I right? We haven''t even started our warm up yet¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er ignored Ji Yuan and walked past the curtains into her inner room where her bed chamber was.

    This room was really spacious and it had two sections; the inner chamber and the outer chamber.

    Soon, Juan Xian''Er was at the bed and Ji Yuan was also following closely behind her.

    Ji Yuan however was looking around with his eyes and divine sense to check for any ambushes and he was quite disappointed that there were actually none¡­

    That means that his instinct was wrong¡­

    Had he really wronged this maiden?

    Now, he felt like backing off and returning to his own room. After all, he was only trying to tease her with yful words and pretending to look like a lecherous cultivator.

    Ji Yuan said as they approached the bed, "Erm¡­ Maiden Juan Xian''Er¡­ actually¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er had suddenly uncovered the long nket that was on her bed and she had uncovered a beautiful naked maiden who had her eyes closed.

    This beautiful naked maiden was equally as breathtaking as Juan Xian''Er too!

    And like Juan Xian''Er, this maiden here also have pointed ears.

    Ji Yuan was shocked that there was another person or rather a naked maiden in this ce that his divine sense could not pick up.

    In fact, her presence seemed to be hidden away on purpose.

    Juan Xian''Er was now smiling as she looked at him, "Do you think that she is really a beautiful maiden? I didn''t lie to you, am I right? That there is another maiden that is even more beautiful than me waiting for you in this room and you won''t be disappointed."

    Ji Yuan returned a stunned look at Juan Xian''Er, "I thought that you are kidding with me¡­ who is she and why is she like this? Did you drug her or something like this? And what did you want me to do?"

    He had suddenly shot her many questions at a time as he was suddenly confused by what he was seeing.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly at him, "You have asked me so many questions. So which one should I answer you first?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "You can start by telling me who is she?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly, "Silly me. Of course, you won''t be able to recognize her. You''re not an abyssal after all. She is naturally the Cardinal Priestess of course."

    Ji Yuan was thoroughly shocked, "What?! She is the Cardinal Priestess?! She doesn''t look like an abyssal at all¡­ she looked human¡­ what do you want me to do by showing her to me?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled mysteriously, "Naturally I want you to make a cuckold out of this King Gong Magog. I can tell you that the Cardinal Priestess is a chaste maiden and you won''t be disappointed with the oue. So, are you a man or not?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling to Anyang in secret: Maybeing here is right after all!

    Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 993 JY, do you dare to cuckold?

    <h4>Chapter 993 JY, do you dare to cuckold?</h4>

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly to Ji Yuan, "So did I lie to you or not that there is someone else that is more astonishing beautiful than I here? Especially when she is also a naked maiden. Are you satisfied to be able to witness the glory of the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Ji Yuan gave a stunned reply, "Cuckold this King Gong Magog? What do you mean?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly as she started to caress the naked body of the Cardinal Priestess, "You are a man and you are asking a maiden how to cuckold a man? Isn''t this the funniest thing that I have ever heard?"

    Ji Yuan saw the fingers of Juan Xian''Er was now ying with the nipples of the Cardinal Priestess and he was gulping and then she moved her fingers down her beautiful naked body to y with her sacred spot that was between her legs¡­

    As a man, he was now feeling hot.

    But he quicklyposed himself to say dryly. "This isn''t a good idea, am I right? Even if she is a most beautiful maiden but she is unconscious. I won''t do such an unhonorable thing at all."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "This may be your only chance. Do you think that with your eighth cultivation realm level, you will be able to subdue her when she has awakened?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he looked at the naked and vulnerable maiden that was at the bed, "Are you joking with me? You can also say that I am now the top cultivator in the Celestial Realm and I am unable to subdue her? Is she an immortal or what?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "You are right. She is an immortal. Or rather a half-immortal. And a powerful one. You won''t be able to subdue her at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly asked, "If she is so powerful as you have said, howe she got subdued by you? Or are you more powerful than her?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "I am actually not as powerful as her but I am afraid that I can''t tell you why she is in this state now."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Surely you can find any other men or male abyssals to do this job? Why me?"

    Juan Xian''Er chuckled softly, "Do you agree that you are a most beautiful man?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually I can''t deny this."

    He was thinking: Being a beautiful man sure has its advantages...

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "The Cardinal Priestess possess the Nine Yin Divine Body. Any man that coptes with her will benefit greatly from cultivating with her. This will naturally benefit you as well."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I am already at the 8th cultivation realm, even though it may be a false 8th level realm but it is still an 8th cultivation realm level. Haha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Unfortunately you are only at the upper 8th cultivation realm level and not at the peak yet. But if you copte with her then you will be able to cross that huge boundary to reach the peak of your cultivation realm. And I can tell you that you are actually still a long way to the top. It will take you at least a thousand years and even ten thousand years to reach the peak."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "How the heck do you know my cultivation realm level?" He was greatly perplexed.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Secret. You can even call it my maiden''s instinct."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned, "You are lying. You just don''t want to tell me¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "But this isn''t the point, right? In front of you is a peerless maiden without an equal in the entire Dark Abyssal and moreover she is a noble abyssal maiden. Don''t you want to y with her?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Juan Xian''Er gasped with a look of delight, "Look, she is so wet below. It seems that she is waiting for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Darn. Why me?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "I did say that you are a most beautiful man, right? She has the Nine Yin Divine Body and I don''t want to benefit King Gong Magog. Therefore, I want someone to take her chastity instead of King Gong Magog¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He interrupted weakly, "It isn''t a good reason enough."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "Also, I feel that you are a good man. Therefore, a good man and a beautiful man can only be fitting for the noble Cardinal Priestess."

    Ji Yuan was grinning now, "You are right on this point. I am indeed a good man¡­."

    Even Xiang Li was giggling softly inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Yeah! My Big Brother is a good man!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er continued with more smiles, "Therefore I can''t just benefit any other men or male abyssals, right? I really don''t want to humiliate the Cardinal Priestess by finding a lesser man. Not only are you beautiful but your cultivation realm level is also high. Do you agree with me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Well, I can''t deny this. Haha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Therefore, I can only pick you. So are you willing to copte with the Cardinal Priestess then?"

    The smiles that were on Ji Yuan had disappeared and he said weakly, "What if I were to say no?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Then I am afraid that I may have to benefit the other men then."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was now screaming to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you have to say YES! Or the benefit will go to the other men!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan of course could hear Xiang Li loud and clear since she was now screaming at the top of her voice.

    But he pretended not to hear her and instead he asked Juan Xian''Er, "Can I consider this? Isn''t it good for the abyssals that King Gong Magog can be an abyssal emperor and married the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "This will be a loveless marriage and the Cardinal Priestess will only end up as a tool for King Gong Magog to be an abyssal emperor. Just think of it as saving the Cardinal Priestess and yourself."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I actually don''t need any saving, you know."

    Juan Xian''Er giggled softly, "A few days ago, the Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha who was also the crown prince of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom had died in the Bloody Forest. Do you dare to say that you are not involved in his death?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I did kill a few abyssals but how the heck did I know that he is the Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha?

    But he put on a straight face to say, "I have never been to the Bloody Forest¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er interrupted with more smiles, "And you have even rescued a hundred ves."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck did she even knows about all these?

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly, "What I am trying to tell you is that if you don''t want your secrets to be spilled out, you can choose to save yourself by copting with the Cardinal Priestess."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "You know. I can kill you and no one will know about this."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Do you think that I am the only person that knows about this? How is it possible for me to be working alone to subdue the powerful Cardinal Priestess? Even if you were to kill me, it is quite pointless."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly, "I give you an incense time to reconsider your options¡­"

    Then she was delightfully fondling the breasts of the unconsciousness Cardinal Princess, "Do you really want to benefit the other men?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why did I have toe to this room in the first ce then I won''t have to see this or even know about this¡­

 Chapter 994 The Cardinal Priestess

    <h4>Chapter 994 The Cardinal Priestess</h4>

    The time to consider was up.

    Or rather, the one incense time that was given by Juan Xian''Er to Ji Yuan was up.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled alluringly at Ji Yuan, "So have youe to a decision yet? The Nine Yin Divine Body in exchange for your ten thousand years or more of cultivation plus a most lovely maiden. In case you don''t know about it, every little step in boundary above the seventh cultivation realm level is 100, 1000 and even 10 000 times harder than you can ever imagine. It isn''t easy to reach the peak of the eighth cultivation realm and it is even harder for you to step into the lofty ninth cultivation realm."

    Then she pointed at the naked Cardinal Priestess that was on the bed, "Right now, you have the benefit of an impossible to attain cultivation resources here. It is something that you can''t even find even in a million years. And you will surely regret this day if you give it up now."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly but he said firmly, "I''m sorry to inform you that I am leaving. No matter how tempting it is, I am not going to take advantage of a maiden especially when she is isn''t aware of this. In fact¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had raised his fists to attack Maiden Juan Xian''Er and he had given her no warning!

    He did not care about his reputation but he valued the reputation of this Cardinal Priestess. Therefore he was going to disable or kill this Maiden Juan Xian''Er and then he would freed the Cardinal Priestess.

    He was grinning as he suddenly attacked Juan Xian''Er, "Hehe! Unfortunately, I am not going to do as you have said and I am going to free this Cardinal Priestess instead¡­"

    But the moment that he had struck Juan Xian''Er, she had suddenly disintegrated into dust in front of him!

    This shocked Ji Yuan, "What the heck?!"

    All of a sudden the entire room seemed to grow dim and there was a soft chuckle that was from Juan Xian''Er, "I know that you may want to attack me so I am actually ready for that."

    Just as Ji Yuan was looking around for Juan Xian''Er in the room, he could suddenly feel the suppressing pressure of a powerful array that was being activated.

    Juan Xian''Er could be heardughing softly, "Enjoy your moments with the Cardinal Priestess. And I won''t forget to inform King Gog Magog on what you have done too."

    Ji Yuan shouted angrily, "Never!"

    At the same time he had bolted to the entrance of the room and was shocked to find that a powerful barrier had sealed the door.

    In fact, he could not even touch the door!

    Angry, he disyed his Xiang Li divine sword and started to hack at the invisible barrier but all his profound strength seemed to be in futile and he seemed to be hitting the air.

    Juan Xian''Er voice could be heard giggling softly, "It is pointless. Unless you are an expert array master, it is impossible for you to escape from this room."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Now I wish that my Qianfeng is here¡­

    Juan Xian''Erughed softly from nowhere, "Enjoyed your moments with the Cardinal Priestess. No matter how loud you are or her screams, you won''t be heard. Also, it is impossible for the two of you to escape from this room without my help."

    Ji Yuan pped his face awkwardly; now he had finally figured why Juan Xian''Er had wanted him to go to her room. This was really curiosity kills the cat¡­

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both looking sheepish as well¡­

    Xiang Li tried tofort Ji Yuan by saying: Big Brother, at least you can still copte with the Cardinal Priestess in this room. So it isn''t that bad. Maybe this Big Sister Juan Xian''Er is only trying to get you to help and she knows that you will disagree to help her. That is why.

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily: Xiang Li, can''t you see that she has already nned for this?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: I don''t think she ns for you refusing her.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li, you are hopeless and also your logic sucks.

    Ji Yuan suddenly remembered something; the Cardinal Priestess was still naked. He ought to cover her with a nket first or else when she wakes up, she would think that he had done something funny to her.

    Therefore he quickly marched to the bed and he quickly pulled the nket to cover her up but not before he took another nce at her naked body while muttering, "This is too sinful¡­"

    All of a sudden the Cardinal Priestess had opened her eyes and she was shocked to see Ji Yuan.

    She was not the only person that was shocked.

    Ji Yuan was also shocked to see her suddenly opening her eyes.

    Before he knows it, the Cardinal Priestess had raised her hands to p Ji Yuan and she had disyed a terrifying speed.

    It was so fast that Ji Yuan could not avoid the p.

    But the p was not painful at all.

    This stunned the Cardinal Priestess as she gasped with more shocks, "What happens to my profound strength? Why can''t I muster my profound strength?"

    There were tears in her beautiful eyes now.

    And she quickly seized the nket from Ji Yuan and stared coldly at him, "Get away from me, you lecherous and dirty man!"

    Ji Yuan quickly said panicky, "Wait! Hear my exnations first!? I am a good guy. I am Ji Yuan. I am as much of a victim as you too."

    The Cardinal Priestess stared coldly at Ji Yuan and said with equal coldness, "Victim? An eighth realm cultivator would be a victim? After you have touched me, you still dare to say that you are a victim?!"

    Ji Yuan looked startled and he was perplexed, "Howe you know my cultivation realm level as well?"

    Did he write his cultivation realm level on his forehead or what?

    He did not disy his profound aura or profound strength, how the heck did these two maidens know his cultivation realm level?

    But this was the least of his concerns now as he panicky tried to exin, "Wait maiden¡­ I mean Cardinal Priestess. I didn''t touch you at all!"

    The Cardinal Priestess hummed coldly, "You not only look at my invible body but you have also touched me¡­ where you shouldn''t have touched. Do you think that I cannot feel your hands when I was forced to lie down on the bed?"

    She did not know that Juan Xian''Er had purposely sealed her hearings but not her sensations. This was actually to mislead her that Ji Yuan had touched her and that was why Juan Xian''Er had purposely fingered around her naked body earlier.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I did look but I didn''t touch you. The one touching you is Maiden Juan Xian''Er."

    The Cardinal Priestess looked startled at the mention of Juan Xian''Er.

    There was a brief nked look in her eyes before she looked angrily at Ji Yuan, "Then where is she now?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly awkward, "If I tell you that she has suddenly disappeared, would you believe me? Just a moment ago, she was actually here¡­"

    The Cardinal Priestess hummed coldly, "Go on. Continue with your story."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He then said quitemely, "I try to attack her to free you but she just vanished."

    The Cardinal Priestess hummed coldly, "How could she just vanish just like this? And in a ce that is surrounded by such a formidable array."

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "She is the one that has setup the arrays so she must have used a mean to escape from here."

    The Cardinal Priestess said coldly and her eyes were murderous, "The Juan Xian''Er that I know doesn''t know any arrays at all. Are you sure you got the right person or name?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned as he weakly said, "Then¡­ maybe this is not her real name?"

    The Cardinal Priestess said coldly, "All along, it is only you. Am I right to say so? So what do you want from me?"

    Her eyes had turned bleary, "You have ruined my cultivation and put me in your mercy. I shouldn''t have asked the obvious."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Look. Even though I know that you have the Nine Yin Divine Body but I didn''t want to bang you. That is what I''ve told Juan Xian''Er as well¡­ I mean that Juan Xian''Er¡­"

    The Cardinal Priestess gasped with great shock, "How did you know that I have the Nine Yin Divine Body?! You have examined my body?!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He bitterly said, "If I told you that Juan Xian''Er told me about your Nine Yin Divine Body, would you believe me?"

    There were non-stop tears that were flowing from the wet eyes of the Cardinal Priestess and she was muffling with soft sobs and sniffs.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I guess not¡­"

 Chapter 995 Return my clothes to me!

    <h4>Chapter 995 Return my clothes to me!</h4>

    Ji Yuan was now left alone with the sobbing Cardinal Priestess in the room.

    He said weakly to her, "Don''t worry, I won''t do anything funny to you."

    The Cardinal Princess looked up and cried bitterly to him, "After what you have done to me, you can still say such a thing?!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I did state that Juan Xian''Er, not me, is the one who touches you.

    Xiang Li giggled to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I have a n that can resolves your guilt!

    Ji Yuan was delighted and asked eagerly: That''s my Xiang Li! Finally, you are useful for once! What is it then?

    Xiang Li giggled: You can touch her again and ask her to feel if the person was you earlier.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan decided to ignore Xiang Li for the entire night; she is really not helpful at all and this would even cause him to be in more trouble.

    Anyang asked Ji Yuan: My lord, why is that you know that this is a trap and yet, you are willing to go? Isn''t it because this Juan Xian''Er is really such an astonishing maiden?

    Ji Yuan was forced to admit weakly: Although I know that this may be a trap but I didn''t think that I will be trapped in here. With my skills, I can''t think of anyone using an array to trap me. Moreover, I didn''t think that she has the time to prepare such an array just for me.

    Anyang nodded: This Maiden Juan Xian''Er seems to know quite a bit about you. It seems that she has been observing you for quite some time. And we didn''t know about this.

    Ji Yuan growled: That''s right. She should be observing us for quite some time. She even knows about the ves that I''ve freed. But what is her purpose?

    Anyang said weakly: Maybe it is exactly as she says? She just wants you to screw the Cardinal Priestess?

    Ji Yuan said quietly: Actually, it is not as simple as that. There is a moment that I can actually sense her killing intentions but it disappeared really quickly.

    Anyang looked shocked; she naturally knows that Ji Yuan''s ability to sense killing intents are stronger than most and this can''t be faked.

    However Xiang Li was giggling instead: Big Brother, I do think that this Juan Xian''Er actually likes you. I can sense it. And she is such a good maiden that she wants you to bang, bang this beautiful sister that is in this room with you too.

    Ji Yuan had heard Xiang Li but he had purposely ignored her; it was because her logic was too illogical for him to follow!

    At least he still got a sensible Anyang to talk to.

    But of course, sometimes Anyang was talking too much sense and Ji Yuan would ignore Anyang and talk to Xiang Li instead.

    No matter whether it was Xiang Li or Anyang that he was talked with, he was always the winner!

    Anyang asked Ji Yuan: Do you regret following this Maiden Juan Xian''Er to her room?

    Ji Yuanughed softly: Although this may be a trap but no.

    Anyang curiously asked: Why so?

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly: I think that this Maiden Juan Xian''Er is really an interesting maiden. And she is a little like my Jiajia too. I am sure that she is a smart maiden. Did you see her reaction when I pped her butt?

    Anyang nodded: She looked angry.

    Ji Yuan said, "Yeah. If I am not wrong then she must also be a noble maiden too. However, I don''t know her background and why she is doing it. The only clue is the Cardinal Priestess and she doesn''t seem to want to talk to me¡­"

    "Hey, you there¡­" The Cardinal Priestess had suddenly ceased her sobbing and she was staring nkly at Ji Yuan.

    Although she still sounded rude but her tone had moderated quite a lot now.

    Ji Yuan looked up and asked curiously, "Yes?"

    Then he was grinning, "Well, I do have a name and that is Ji Yuan."

    The Cardinal Priestess hesitated for a while as she pursed her small lips, "My clothing. Return it to me¡­"

    Ji Yuan had realized that this Cardinal Priestess was still naked under the nkly and the vivid view of her nakedness shed in his mind¡­

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I don''t have your clothing."

    The Cardinal Priestess: ¡­

    To her, this man was obvious lying and he had purposely wanted her naked!

    But right now, she was like a fish that was caught in his and she dared not acted too rashly.

    So she lowered her voice to say softly, "Or any clothing."

    This time round Ji Yuan was grinning, "That is easy."

    It was really easy because he had brought many spiritas clothing for his maidens and he had never thought that he may have some uses for it in this ce!

    So he quickly shed several of the spiritas clothing and grinned at the Cardinal Priestess, "You may wear these."

    The Cardinal Priestess had one had pulling up the nket to her bosoms and another hand was quickly inspecting the spiritas clothing that was on her bed.

    Ji Yuan''s sharp eyes could see the white curves of her bosoms and he had already seen her naked body earlier so he could already imagine her full figure that was behind the nket.

    The Cardinal Priestess was shocked when she inspected the clothing that Ji Yuan had just given her; these clothing was all quite translucent and it was as good as not wearing anything.

    She stared angrily at Ji Yuan, "Do you think that this Holy Cardinal Priestess is amon whore for you to deprave? I am not going to cosy for you!"

    "Cosy?" Ji Yuan frowned, "What is it? And what is wrong with these clothing?"

    All of a sudden he had realized that these clothing was a little too revealing and he had forgotten about it as he was now used to what the spiritas maidens were wearing.

    He said weakly, "Just treat these clothing as your lingerie. I will also pass you my outer robe to cover you."

    "I don''t want your smelly and dirty robe!" The Cardinal Priestess hummed coldly as she retreated behind her nket.

    "It is up to you."

    Ji Yuan could only disy a bitter smile as he said to her; he had no idea why Juan Xian''Er wanted to put him in the same room as the Cardinal Priestess and why she had framed him for.

 Chapter 996 The 3 Conditions Of The Cardinal Priestess

    ?

    Ji Yuan went around the room as he shouted loudly, "Juan Xian''Er! Come out of here! If this is a joke from you then you are carrying it too far."

    After shouting and searching for Juan Xian''Er, Ji Yuan had given up. This was especially so when she did not even bother to reply to his shouts.

    With a weak smile and ast look at the tearful Cardinal Priestess who was cowering at the corner of the bed, he began to meditate at the corner of the room to ease his awkwardness.

    When Ji Yuan had closed his eyes to meditate, the Cardinal Priestess was finally able to quieten down and her hot tears had also finally stopped.

    The Cardinal Priestess was staring at Ji Yuan; she hated this man, hates this man that had dared to vite her!

    While she was shing her hateful anger against Ji Yuan, she was forced to admit that this man was actually quite beautiful looking. In fact, he was both the most handsome and beautiful man that she had ever seen.

    Unfortunately, he was just a beast of a man with an ugly nature.

    She secretly took a look at the wondrous clothing that Ji Yuan had given her and saw that all these clothing was actually high quality spirit clothing and were all considered to be extremely profound treasures in the Dark Abyssal Realm. At such, it was impossible to even purchase it here.

    How did a mane to possess so many of these high quality and revealing spirit clothing? He must be a perverted beast of a man¡­

    She took another look at Ji Yuan and saw that he was still meditating and she quickly picked one of the spirit clothing that she had fancied and slipped into it under her nket.

    The divine sense of a cultivator is uncanny even when they are meditating, especially when they are in the same room.

    However, the Cardinal Priestess did not care if Ji Yuan was acting now or not.

    After she had slipped into the spirit clothing, she saw howfortable and beautiful she was. Although these spirit clothing was flimsy but they actually had excellent profound defenses and could even aid the cultivator in their cultivation.

    She was also astonished that it just took only a little of her profound strength just to cause the spirit clothing to conceal her privacy and to fasten it into ce; one must know that she had actually lost her cultivation strength and she could not use any of her high level profound strength.

    She could not help muttering to herself: Although this man is a pervert but he does have some tastes in a maiden''s clothing¡­

    Of course she dared not say it in front of him.

    At this moment, she had actually thought of finding a mirror and danced in front of it to appraise her new spirit clothing to see how well she looked in it.

    Her eyes were already looking at the rest of the spirit clothing: He did say that all these spirit clothing are all for me, right?

    She is well aware of how stunning she is, made even more so by the spirit attire that she was now wearing.

    However, she continued to pull the nket over her as she was afraid that this perverted Ji Yuan woulde to her again and to ravage her.

    But there were no movements from Ji Yuan at all.

    She naturally did not know that Ji Yuan was not quiet at all but he was bickering with Xiang Li right at this moment.

    Xiang Li was trying to persuade Ji Yuan: Big Brother, now that she has lost her cultivation strength, you should make her yours. She can''t resist you. Action first, wordster.

    Ji Yuan said exasperatingly to her: Xiang Li, I am beginning to think that you are not a maiden at all!

    After a protracted period of deadly silence in the room, she could not resist raising her voice to say. "Actually¡­ it isn''t impossible for you to attain me since I''ve already fallen into your hands. However, I have three conditions to ask from you. Only if you are able to fulfill it then I can be yours."

    Ji Yuan was startled by her beautiful voice and he opened his eyes to look at her.

    The Cardinal Priestess saw that she had got his attention and she sighed heavily to say, "Firstly, you got to restore my cultivation strength. I can''t cultivate without my cultivation strength. Secondly, help me to kill King Gog Magog. Thirdly, I want you to bring Juan Xian''Er to me. I want to make her pay if she is really the one that causes me to be in this state."

    Ji Yuan said with a soft sigh, "I am afraid that I can''t fulfill your first condition at all and I can''t restore your cultivation strength."

    He was thinking: how the heck am I able to do that? I don''t even know how she lost her cultivation strength in the first ce. I am afraid that only that Maiden Juan Xian''Er is able to do a thing about it¡­

    The Cardinal Priestess was startled but she was not surprised; it was because if her profound strength was restored then he would have lost his trump card over her and he could not make her into his depraved ve as he cultivated with her Nine Yin Divine Body.

    That was why she had not really expected for him to agree with her first condition who was also the most important to her.

    The Cardinal Priestess lowered her head as she said softly, "As long as you can fulfill my second and third condition, I can be yours¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually startled when she was suddenly making such a proposal to him.

    Conditions?

    She will be mine?

    Did she misunderstand something or what?

    I am also a victim in this ploy!

    Ji Yuan said quickly in case there were more misunderstandings, "Look. I don''t want your body. If I want a maiden, I can always find another elsewhere."

    This stunned the Cardinal Priestess when she had heard Ji Yuan; after he had his fun with her body, he now did not want her body anymore? And he is now despising her instead?

    This was a hurtful blow to the beautiful pride of the Cardinal Priestess and she had suddenly broken down again.

    To her, it sounded like Ji Yuan had rejected all her three conditions. Even her second proposal was also rejected.

    But he was right. What right did she now have in order to bargain with this depraved Ji Yuan?

    She had been vited by him and had even lost her cultivation strength to him. What right did she have now?

    Ji Yuan was stunned why she was suddenly in tears again?

    Is she being touched by my noble gesture?

    He quickly asked Xiang Li and Anyang what they think; after all they are maidens too and a maiden would know what another maiden is thinking.

    Xiang Li giggled: I think she wants to give her body to you.

    Anyang suggested: I think that she is touched that she is able to surrender her body to you, my lord.

    Ji Yuan said suspiciously: Are the two of you sure about this? Why is that I am feeling that it isn''t true at all.

    Xiang Li and Anyang said together: Trust us. We are maidens. You men can''t understand it!

 Chapter 997 Master Ji Yuan

    ?

    The Cardinal Priestess was staring nkly at Ji Yuan throughout the night while Ji Yuan was meditating.

    From the sound of this Ji Yuan, it seemed that he had rejected all 3 of her conditions and he sought only to dominate her body.

    This time, she was really doomed and she could not fight them without her profound strength.

    What if hees to the bed again and attempt to do the depraved ''funny'' things to her again?

    Then she would not be able to stop him at all.

    She was also thinking: How long is he going to keep me confined in this ce? Is this his ploy of making me fall in love with him?

    She had heard that under imprisonment, the depraved victim would often fall in love with the captor and may even feel uneasy if the captor was not around.

    This would greatly convenient him whenever he wanted to dual cultivate with her.

    Right now, he was probably reaping the benefits of dual cultivating with her Nine Yin Divine Body and he was trying to cultivate her wondrous energy into his cultivation now.

    She was only aware of his fingers moving below her and that was only because she had only just regained conscious. Before that, he had probably already used his ugly spear to prate into her¡­

    When she had thought of that, there were bleary tears in her eyes again.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was not exactly doing his peaceful meditation; he was actually discussing his ''war ns'' with Anyang and Xiang Li as they argued over the troubles that they were currently facing.

    Anyang said to Ji Yuan: At least you are perfectly safe now. This Maiden Juan Xian''Er is only trapping you and not really harming you.

    JI Yuan frowned: After that, she would lead me to the ughterhouse and to ughter me. Trust me on this!

    Anyang said with some exasperatingly: You are the one that said that she isn''t exactly unfriendly but now you are saying that she is leading you to the ughterhouse. My lord, are you always trying to say something that is opposite of me?

    It was not only Ji Yuan but Xiang Li as well.

    The two of them had been reversing their takes nonstop, so much that Anyang did not know what they were actually thinking.

    Ji Yuan weakly protested: You know. I am just trying to raise that there exists such a possibility only. Anyang, why are you being so stubborn?

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling: Yeah! Yeah! Big Brother is only saying there is only a possibility. Maybe this Maiden Juan Xian''Er is leading Ji Yuan to a brothel house instead.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: Xiang Li, this isn''t what I am trying to say, you know.

    Xiang Li giggled in protest: Big Brother, do you agree with me that this may also be a possibility?

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Although this may be a possibility but this is a very low possibility¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted him: Not with your beautiful looks, Big Brother! Your beautiful looks will increase this chance by a lot!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly muttered: I really give up on talking with Xiang Li now¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Then why is Big Brother here talking with us?

    Ji Yuan weakly said: Because it is more boring to cultivate and I need someone to chat with.

    Anyang: ¡­

    These two aremers¡­

    But she quickly said: This Maiden Juan Xian''Er shouldn''t be that bad or else Xiang Li won''t like her. Have you forgotten that she is the Goddess Tear and she has a natural aversion to evil?

    Ji Yuan frowned: That may be true but you shouldn''t have talked about the Goddess Tear in front of Xiang Li.

    Anyang smiled: She can''t remember anything that is rted to the Goddess Tear, have you forgotten about it?

    Ji Yuanughed: True, true. Since she can''t remember then this is not considered gossiping about her. Haha¡­

    Xiang Li was thinking to herself: Why are they gossiping about me in front of me as though I am not around?

    The conversations were suddenly interrupted by the Cardinal Priestess who could not endure the silence anymore.

    The Cardinal Priestess said coldly to the meditating Ji Yuan, "Hey you there. I mean¡­ noble Ji Yuan¡­"

    She added a little ttery to his name but deep down, she was despising him!

    Ji Yuan opened his eyes once more and asked curiously, "What is it?"

    The Cardinal Priestess said coldly, "You must be enjoying digesting my Nine Yin Divine Energies, right? In the future, you would have many chances. If you freed me, then I shall agree to be your depraved ve forever. Then no one shall know about this¡­"

    She was thinking andmenting her poor fate; now to her, whether it is to the Abyssal King Gong Magog or to this Ji Yuan, it did not matter anymore. At least she would be freed¡­

    Ji Yuan curiously looked at her, "I am not interested in your Nine Yin Divine Body. Of course I will free you but who says that I am going to make you my depraved ve?"

    The Cardinal Priestess was stunned, "You''re not?"

    Then is he going to make me into his depraved whore to dual cultivate anytime?

    This caused the Cardinal Priestess to be even more afraid of Ji Yuan and her eyes were bleary again; she had already made such a concession given her noble status in the Dark Abyssal Realm and this Ji Yuan was still not going to spare her?

    Ji Yuan was thinking: I hope that she did not have any funny ideas now. This ought to prove my innocence¡­

    Unknown to Ji Yuan and the Cardinal Priestess, they were both on a different wavelength¡­

    Ji Yuan grinned at the Cardinal Priestess and asked, "You don''t have to be so cold toward me now that you know that I am absolutely a good man, right?"

    The Cardinal Priestess could only tearfully say, "Yes¡­ you are a good man¡­"

    She was forced to agree with this despicable man that did not want to spare her. Now he was imposing his will upon her. If she did not agree with him then a most woeful fate would surely befall her!

    She vowed to kill this Ji Yuan once she had regained her profound strength and at the first instant when she would be freed from this ce. Even if she could not regain her profound strength but she had many powerful henchmen that could kill this Ji Yuan here!

    Ji Yuan interrupted her thoughts by asking, "I shouldn''t have keep calling you the Cardinal Priestess. This is merely your title. So what is your real name?"

    The Cardinal Priestess was shocked; no one had dared to address her real name and only her title in the Dark Abyssal Realm but this Ji Yuan wished to address her real name directly?

    With a soft resignation, she said with muffled voice. "Xuan Qiaoqiao is my maiden name."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Now Xuan Qiaoqiao, from now onward, you shall be a good maiden and I shall get you out of here."

    The Cardinal Priestess sighed woefully, "Yes¡­ Ji¡­ I mean Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had no other choice but to be a docile maiden in front of this despisable Ji Yuan!

    Although Ji Yuan was sincere in trying to free her but the Cardinal Priestess hadpletely misunderstood that Ji Yuan was threatening her.

 Chapter 998 Your Humble Harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao

    ?

    Ji Yuan had tried shouting for Juan Xian''Er and even tried meditating in the room but still this Maiden Juan Xian''Er simply would not show up.

    He was getting a little frustrated as he was being locked up in a room with such a beautiful Cardinal Priestess.

    She was so astonishing beautiful that he simply did not dare to look at her and he was thinking how was it possible for an abyssal to be so beautiful?

    Then he had remembered a male ''ancient old one'' that he saw in the air when he was with Gong Muk; that male ancient old one actually looked like a celestial human except that he had wings on his back.

    So this Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao also had wings on her back too?

    He said to Xiang Li and Anyang in his soul sea: You know. I really don''t get it. What is it that this Maiden Juan Xian''Er from me? She just traps me in this array and just left without stating her purposes! This is a little ridiculous! Why don''t she fight with me?

    Anyang weakly said: Why must all men think that fighting will resolve everything?

    Xiang Li giggled: Actually Big Brother, she did say what she wants but you are too dense to realize it.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    He bitterly asked: Can you exin more clearly, Xiang Li? In what way am I dense?! And when did she say her purpose?

    Xiang Li giggled again: Big Brother, you really have a bad memory. She did ask you to cuckold that King Gong Magog, right? Maybe after you have cuckolded him then she will release you?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said bitterly: Xiang Li, to be honest with you. Do you really think that is her aim? You are too young, too simple!

    Xiang Li protested immediately; I am too young, too simple?! I am older than you, Big Brother!

    Ji Yuan frowned: Should I call you Big Sister instead then?

    Xiang Li hummed, showing a rare disy of anger. "Little Brother!"

    Anyang shook her head: Enough. The two of you have been arguing for the entire night now.

    Xiang Li said: It is only because Big Brother is too stubborn. He doesn''t want to bang, bang such an astonishing beautiful maiden in front of him! When she is unconscious, he says no. When she has regained her consciousness, he still says no!

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Xiang Li, other than bang, bang¡­ do you have any other good advice to offer me in this situation? You are just clouding my judgement!

    Xiang Li giggled softly: I can go screw, screw too.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This Goddess Tear isn''t pure at all¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: I am full of love and that is why I am guiding my Big Brother to the correct judgement!

    At this moment Ji Yuan and Anyang had forgotten that Xiang Li was not supposed to hear Ji Yuanmenting about the Goddess Tear as they were too ovee with a mixture of emotions especially when half of their minds had shut down when Xiang Li was onlymenting for Ji Yuan to just bang the Cardinal Priestess.

    Also, Xiang Li was just Xiang Li when she was saying such things and it was too normal for them. So they did not link it to an answer from Xiang Li on Ji Yuan''s randomments about her.

    Ji Yuan said solemnly to Xiang Li: Look Xiang Li. After I have tried to hard to maintain my honor and reputation in front of the Cardinal Priestess, I hope that you don''t screw me up. Alright?

    Until now, Ji Yuan, Anyang or Xiang Li did not realize how screwed up Ji Yuan''s reputation was in front of the Cardinal Priestess as she had misunderstood him.

    The Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao was now staring with a nk look at Ji Yuan who was pacing around the room as though he was thinking about something.

    Ji Yuan was actually pacing up and down as he talked with Xiang Li and Anyang.

    The more he had paced, the more restless she was.

    She thought: He must be warming up for his dual cultivation with me¡­

    Therefore, she had grown even more frightful what this beast of a man would do next to her.

    She had no idea how depraved he had been when she was unconscious but now that she was conscious, she would experience his extreme depravedness to the fullest.

    But the more, she looked at Ji Yuan, the more appealing she thought him to be.

    This started to worry her now as she was now beginning to experience the syndromes of being a captive.

    She was even thinking that it was not a bad thing to follow this Ji Yuan than the ugly King Gong Magog instead.

    Although this Ji Yuan had obtained her through a despicable mean but she had to admit that he was a better choice than the Abyssal King Gong Magog. At the very least, he was a desirable and beautiful man.

    She had heard that there were many numerous maidens that would fall in love with the man that was badass; maybe it was because they were really a handsome or beautiful badass¡­

    By now, she had already surrendered several leeway and made concession after concession to this beast of a man Ji Yuan.

    But he did not seem to be satisfied and she was being forced to call him as her master.

    She really did not know how to bargain with him anymore!

    Right now, she could see that he had stopped his meditation and was now doing his warm up to dual cultivate with her again.

    She waspletely powerless to stop him!

    By now, even her tears hadpletely been dried and she had run out of ways too¡­

    All of her sudden, Ji Yuan had suddenly turned to her and he was grinning. "Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao. I am thinking of this. Since we have so much time here, then why don''t you tell me more about Maiden Juan Xian''Er and why you are here?"

    The Cardinal Priestess was shocked; is this man such a pervert that he wants me to recount my experiences all over again to him?

    But she was forced to swallow her humiliation and nodded slowly, "Yes Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Her pride as the lofty Cardinal Priestess was once again shattered when she was forced to call this Ji Yuan her master.

    Ji Yuan did not think that calling him Master Ji Yuan would be such an offensive thing for the Cardinal Priestess. It was because he was used to Tang Manni and Xu Yifei calling him Master Ji Yuan. He was actually thinking that this Cardinal Priestess must be calling Master Ji Yuan because she was actually so grateful to him for trying to find a way to escape from this array.

    Heughed jovially and said, "Well, I don''t feel quitefortable if you keep calling me Master Ji Yuan. Why don''t you call me by my name?"

    The Cardinal Priestess had turned ashen immediately as she quickly answered, "This humble servant dares not!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Humble servant?"

    The Cardinal Priestess turned even paler, "This¡­ humble ve dares not¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned even more, "Humble ve?"

    The Cardinal Priestess turned even paler when she saw that Ji Yuan was looking unhappy with her, "This humble harlot dares not¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes with a perplexed look, "Humble harlot?!"

    The Cardinal Priestess quickly added panicky, "Your humble harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking while asking Anyang and Xiang Li at the same time: What does she mean? Does she really want to copte with me so badly that she wants me to cuckold that King Gong Magog so much?

    Xiang Li giggled: I told you so!

    Ji Yuan frowned bitterly to her: I don''t remember you saying anything about this.

    Xiang Li giggled: That is because Big Brother is not paying any attention to me. Wuwuwu!

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li and weakly said to the Cardinal Priestess, "Erm, this is enough¡­"

    He did not know why the Cardinal Priestess wants to keep ttering him with her humbleness when she was so cold to him earlier. And that was why he was saying that this was enough.

    The Cardinal Priestess was quite relieved to hear that this was enough and she did not know how to lower herself anymore. This means that this Master Ji Yuan had decided that her new title would be as his ''Humble Harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao''.

    Ji Yuan wasmenting why he was being struck here due to his curiosity.

    There are many cultivators that would risk their lives in a trial to power up and there are also many cultivators that would try all kinds of means, even despisable means to power up such as dual cultivating with a maiden or making a maiden their living cauldron.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand, he is more like an adventurer that wanted to see new worlds and things; that is why he is not averse to enter a trial or even into the Dark Abyssal Realm unlike the other cultivators.

    There were actually many cultivators that purposely touched the ck stele that was for this trial and then they would walk away while hoping the others would fall for it as they thought that they may be many cultivators that were inside this trial.

    But Ji Yuan was naturally not bothered by how many cultivators had actually entered this trial and he was undeterred.

    This was a new world; he would boast about his new adventures and experiences of the new world to his group of drinking brothers.

    Also, while he did not admit it but he was also attracted to Juan Xian''Er in the first ce and that was why he had followed her even though he had sensed that she was up to no good.

    But he did not think that her setup was rather this bizarre and he was dumbfounded whether she was a good or a bad maiden by setting him up in this manner.

    Ji Yuan was now saying to the Cardinal Priestess, "Qiaoqiao, now tell me why you are here and all about this Maiden Juan Xian''Er¡­"

    The Cardinal Priestess humbled said, "Your humble harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao obeys my master¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ...

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, see! She likes you!

    Anyang: ...

 Chapter 999 Plan A, B and C

    <h4>Chapter 999 n A, B and C</h4>

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said to the Cardinal Priestess, "Tell me how you havee to this state? And also who is this Maiden Juan Xian''Er?"

    He was actually more curious about the beautiful and charming Juan Xian''Er than anything else.

    The Cardinal Priestess was shocked at his request because this pervert had wanted her to recount her woeful experiences all over again. She was his captive so how would he not know why she was here?

    But still she answered humbly again, "Your humble harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao obeys my master¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a grin, "Why are you holed up in your bed? We are friends now, right? Why don''t you sit down on the table next to me and recount your story? In this way, I will feel much easier too."

    The Cardinal Priestess was shocked; he wanted her to expose her body and to sit next to him so that he could admire her? Then in this way, he would feel much better?

    She muttered softly, "Your humble harlot Xuan Qiaoqiao obeys my master¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "You are not a harlot. Why did you say that?"

    The Cardinal Priestess thought that he was merely testing her so she panicky said, "No, I am your harlot!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Well, if you keep insisting¡­"

    As the Cardinal Priestess said that, she had slowly stepped out of the bed in her new attire.

    At first she was quite shy as she stepped out of the bed and she was even flustering; it was because the spirit clothing that she was wearing was too revealing.

    Ji Yuan gasped softly when he saw her in the spirit dress and she was like an astonishing heavenly fairy that was untainted by the mundane world.

    When he recalled her nakedness earlier and her beautiful view below, he was hardened and quite aroused¡­

    There was a twitch on his face as he thought miserable: Why is that she looked more beautiful than earlier?

    He could not gasp, "Beautiful, beautiful¡­"

    This brought upon a dness to the Cardinal Priestess when she had suddenly received Ji Yuan''s praises and she became even more flustered.

    She saw that this spirit dress was really very beautiful and she was also beautiful in it.

    Even though her thigh, butt and frontal bosom seemed to be exposed but her privacy was also concealed by the spirit attire.

    Slowly she ovee her shyness and was even swinging in front of Ji Yuan as though she was dressing up.

    Ji Yuan''s jaws almost dropped when he saw how beautiful Xuan Qiaoqiao really was; she looked totally different when she was lying nakedly on the bed and when she was cowering behind her nket.

    Her full charisma was now brought forth in front of him and she was absolutely mesmerizing!

    Ji Yuan thought: Darn. This Abyssal King Gong Magog doesn''t deserve her¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, you need to bang her and bring her into your harem!

    Ji Yuan answered without thinking: I can consider this¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    He did not even know what he had just said in his soul sea to Xiang Li and Anyang as his attention was fully on the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao; she was as divine as the Smiling Divine Maiden and as lovely as the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    He was now regretting why he had said to Juan Xian''Er that he would never bang the Cardinal Priestess. Maybe if he had agreed to, then maybe Juan Xian''Er would also be his maiden¡­

    Naturally this was Ji Yuan''s heart demon regretting but the truth was, when ites to doing the right thing, he still would not do anything dishonorably to the Cardinal Priestess.

    The Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao saw that Ji Yuan was looking at her lecherously and his eyes seemed to be popping out as well.

    She knows that she was very beautiful and she had the most beautiful maiden title in the Dark Abyssal. But normally, no matter how much the abyssal men or her own race had admired her beauty, she was nonchnt about it.

    It was because she had vowed to be a chaste maiden forever. That was her duty as the Abyssal Cardinal Priestess.

    Normally, the ''Ancient Old Ones'' are considered to be untouchable by the Abyssals as they used to be the supreme rulers of the Dark Abyssal in the past.

    The Cardinal Priestess was naturally the Cardinal Empress in the past when the Ancient Old Ones ruled the Dark Abyssal.

    But all this changed when the Abyssals be more powerful than the Ancient Old Ones and the doctrine of the Holy Communism had taken root deep in the hearts of the abyssals.

    This King Gong Magog had dared to break the ancient tradition and he had wanted to take her as his abyssal empress. By taking the Cardinal Priestess as his abyssal empress, he would naturally be ablet to proim himself as the new abyssal emperor.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao took a look at Ji Yuan and said woefully, "I am the Cardinal Priestess of the Ancient Old Ones. My sanctuary is at the Nightfall Heights, the sacred mountain of the Dark Abyssal¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly as he listened to her.

    She continued, "A few days ago, King Gong Magog had dered his intention to take me as his abyssal empress and he had given us two choices. Either we submit or die. And he intends to bring the powerful abyssal cultivators to Nightfall Heights¡­"

    "Normally he won''t be so bold. It is because the Ancient Old Ones have numerous powerful elders. The most powerful is naturally the three patriarch elders, Patriarch Xuan Yixiang, Patriarch Fen Guilong and Patriarch Ma Jue. However, the three patriarch elders had all mysteriously disappeared over the past several months, one after another¡­ I fear that they have all been killed by King Gong Magog now."

    "Also, there is a powerful immortal Totem Abyssal that had suddenly descended to help King Gong Magog and he imed to be the ancestor of King Gong Magog¡­"

    Then the Cardinal Priestess looked pitifully at Ji Yuan to say, "I don''t fear King Gong Magog. If I still have my cultivation strength, I am stronger than this King Gong Magog."

    It was as though she was pleading for Ji Yuan to return her cultivation strength to her¡­

    She continued woefully, "A few days ago, the Cardinal Council had suddenly announced the decision that I should marry King Gong Magog. This is unbelievable as such a vote would normally never be able to carry out in the past¡­"

    "It is only then that I''ve realized that I have traitors among my people and in the Cardinal Council. And I share this with my good sister Juan Xian''Er who I thought is my closest friend."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You know Juan Xian''Er quite well?"

    The Cardinal Priestess hummed coldly, "We have thousand of years of friendship. So do you think we are close or not in the past?"

    "In the past?" Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You are not close now?"

    The Cardinal Priestess said bitterly, "Why do you think that I will be in this state? It is all because of her! She was waiting to strike me down when I am at my weakest moment afterpleting my Nine Reincarnation Revolution! If I am not at my weakest moment, do you think that she will have the chance?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "I thought that she isn''t alone¡­"

    The Cardinal Priestess looked at Ji Yuan, "Of course, she isn''t alone¡­"

    She was hinting that one of her coborators was actually Ji Yuan.

    The Cardinal Priestess sighed woefully, "To think that I trust her so readily¡­ and I even believe her when she told me that she has a n to cancel this marriage arrangement."

    Ji Yuan asked her curiously, "Did Juan Xian''Er tells her what her n is?"

    The Cardinal Priestess nodded, "She told me that she had heard that the Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha will be hunting in the Bloody Forest. And she ns to use him as a hostage in exchange for the peace of the Nightfall Heights¡­"

    Ji Yuan was frowning all of a sudden, "Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha? The Bloody Forest?"

    The picture was suddenly bing more clearer to Ji Yuan now.

    Did he happen to screw her ns up by killing the Great Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha in the Bloody Forest and that was why Juan Xian''Er knows about him? It was because Juan Xian''Er was actually in the Bloody Forest that day¡­

    But he quickly asked, "But what has it got to do with you¡­ erm¡­ in this state with me?"

    The Cardinal Priestess looked a little dazed as she answered, "After Juan Xian''Er is back, I ask her if she had seeded or not. She merely shook her head. So I suggest that we go for n B. But first, I need to cultivate first as I have justpleted my Nine Reincarnation Revolution. That is when she had suddenly attacked me and I end up in this state."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What is your n B?"

    The Cardinal Priestess hesitated for a while before she said softly, "Naturally it is to assassinate King Gong Magog. The two of us are two of the most powerful cultivators in the Dark Abyssal. If we work together, there may be a chance of us seeding."

    Ji Yuan had a suddenly realization, "That is why the two of you are here in the Royal City of Nefarious?"

    There were tears flowing down from the Cardinal Priestess now as she slowly nodded, "Isn''t it obvious that we are here? But I have not expected that she would be working with you to bring me down like this¡­"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning now¡­

    It was because he was now thinking: Perhaps it''s because Juan Xian''Er understands your n B would fail. And it is for this reason that she has offered to test her n A in the Bloody Forest. If your n B has a remote chance of being sessful, she will not try her n A in the first ce. Unfortunately for Juan Xian''Er, I appear to have ruined her n A...

    He was also thinking: Maybe she can''t persuade you to drop your n B and that is why Juan Xian''Er has decided to adopt a n C? And her n C is to make a cuckold out of this King Gong Magog?

 Chapter 1000 Juan Xianâ€™Er background

    <h4>Chapter 1000 Juan Xian''Er background</h4>

    When the Cardinal Priestess had mentioned her plight and how she had ended up here after being attacked by Juan Xian''Er, she was in tears again.

    Ji Yuan was disheartened when he saw her in tears and he reached out tofort her by embracing her to give her a pat.

    And at this moment, Ji Yuan and the Cardinal Priestess were purely in each other''sfort and their thoughts were pure; they were in each other''s embrace purely by instinct.

    The Cardinal Priestess was saddened by her betrayal of her good friend and sister Juan Xian''Er. Not only that, her cultivation strength was stolen away from her and she had even be a depraved ve of Ji Yuan.

    JI Yuan on the other hand was moved by the sorrowful and mncholy tears of Xuan Qiaoqiao. At the same time, he was being distracted by the thoughts of Juan Xian''Er and he had embraced the Xuan Qiaoqiao without thinking about it.

    He was thinking: If that Juan Xian''Er is also in the Bloody Forest and saw my battle then she should be able to see the disy of my cultivation realm level. I think I have finally solved the question how she would have known about my cultivation realm level¡­

    All of a sudden, Xuan Qiaoqiao had realized that Ji Yuan was holding onto her tightly and she was startled; it hade so naturally that she had not realized that Ji Yuan was holding onto her until now. His touches were so warm andforting to her¡­

    Then she had be flustered when she recalled Ji Yuan''s touches on her body and the way that he had been teasing her body slowly. At that time, she was truly aroused¡­

    When she had thought of that, she wanted to push Ji Yuan away but she had suddenly remembered that she had lost her profound strength and that she was also Ji Yuan''s depraved harlot.

    Therefore, she had no choice but to ept her current dilemma with a mix feeling; she hates this despicable man but at the same time, she felt soforted in his embrace¡­

    But she had a smallfort; at least this man was able to give her warmpared to the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    It shivered her to think that King Gong Magog would be hugging her like a doll and she would surely break or go insane if she were with him.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that he was now holding onto the Cardinal Priestess and he was startled; her scent was really fragrant. Moreover, she was so soft andfortable to hold onto. He could feel her bosoms that were pressing onto him and he found himself staring from the top of her bosoms¡­

    Her bosoms were really milk white and she had even picked a spirit clothing that was close to her skin color.

    Ji Yuan could even see the outline of her panties. But he don''t need to see through the panties to see what was beneath it because Juan Xian''Er had already shown him earlier¡­

    Xiang Li was saying excitingly to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you should carry her to the bed and fulfill her desires. She isn''t averse to you for sure!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan weakly said to Xiang Li: Is this the only thing that you have been thinking all this time?

    Xiang Li protested strongly: It is no wonder why Jiajia calls you the unromantic cultivator!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: This got nothing to do with being a romantic cultivator¡­

    He had decided to ignore Xiang Li for real this time.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly asked the Cardinal Priestess, "What is Juan Xian''Er background?"

    There was a sh of anger in Xuan Qiaoqiao''s eyes when Ji Yuan had suddenly asked her about Juan Xian''Er and it was more of an envious look.

    She was thinking why he had to ask about Juan Xian''Er. Was it because he had fancied Juan Xian''Er? Or because he was just pretending that they were not lovers in front of her?

    But she answered coldly nevertheless, "You should know her background. Juan Xian''Er is a well known great beauty at the Nightfall Heights and she is as beautiful as me. But very few would know about her because she rarely ventured out of the Abyssal Cathedral of the Nightfall Heights. She indeed has a most outstanding background in the Nightfall Heights."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "What is her background then?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao shed a moment of anger at him, "You should know."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I actually don''t know and that is why I want you to tell me."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao heard the irritation in his voice and she was a little afraid of offending him so she was forced to answer rather unhappily, "She is the daughter of the first Cardinal Priestess that had ascended a long time ago. Therefore, her status in the Abyssal Cathedral is quite unique. But I have thought that she will actually betray me."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly before he asked, "Howe you can read my cultivation realm level? How did you know?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao stared at him, "We are both at the False Immortal level of the 8th cultivation realm. At this cultivation realm, you will be able to read the cultivation realm level of any cultivators, including immortal cultivators that are stronger than you. The 8th cultivation realm is naturally the divine soul level. Howe you didn''t know about this?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I suppose to know about this?"

    His cultivation sucks and he had attained this False Immortal level not too long ago and he had not the time to explore the cultivation benefits of this level.

    Every cultivation level has their benefits and advantages.

    At the 4th cultivation level, the cultivator will age slowly and their lifespan will also increase tremendously.

    At the 5th cultivation level, the cultivator will attain the golden body and they will cease to eat or drink. Also, they will also be known as the golden celestials and have golden eyes. With their golden body, they will also be able to regenerate even their lost limbs and have enhance recovery.

    At the 6th cultivation level, this is also known as the spirit level. The cultivator will be able to gain an external spirit animus such as a sword spirit or spirit animus from killing a profound beast. At the same time, they would also be able to conceal their cultivation realm or to suppress it.

    At the 7th cultivation level, the profound aura of the cultivator can be transformed into profound power and they will also have innate defenses against attacks. At the same time, their spirit level will also be strengthened and they can even disy two types of spirit animus.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly thought of something, "You are at the 8th cultivation level too?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "To be exact, I am at the False Immortal level of the 8th cultivation realm. At this False Immortal level, I am stronger than most of the 7th cultivation realm abyssal cultivators here and I can choose not to ascend."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Then what is the cultivation realm of Juan Xian''Er?"

    "She is also at the False Immortal level of the 8th cultivation realm." Xuan Qiaoqiao answered quietly.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he asked weakly, "Then the two of you must really be strong. Is it easy to reach the False Immortal level here?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed softly, "Of course it isn''t easy! You are probably unique like us too. It is because the two of us practiced the Nine Reincarnation Revolutions that it is possible for us to reach the False Immortal level¡­"

    Then she said hatefully, "That is also why she knows of my vulnerability¡­"

    When she said that, she was all tensed up and cuddled tightly into Ji Yuan''s embrace.

    Ji Yuan gasped softly to her as he continued to stare at her enticing body, "You are so beautiful¡­"

    All of a sudden Xuan Qiaoqiao had flustered redly as she realized that she was still in Ji Yuan''s embrace. However, she was unable to push him away as she had lost her profound strength and also because she was now his harlot.

    She got a bad feeling that this Ji Yuan had already finished with his warm up and he was about to do something to her.

    This caused her cool body to suddenly be hot and her heart was now pacing rapidly.

    All of a sudden, she was gasping when her feeble attempts to struggle had caused her hands to touch his hardened body below.

    Ji Yuan looked at her weakly when he had realized that she had touched him below, "I know that you want me to cuckold the Abyssal King Gong Magog but you don''t have to be in such a hurry."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped softly to protest, "No, I am not¡­"

    --------------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Well, this is the 1000th chapter. I always wonder what the 1000th chapter will be like and which of the maidens will be with Ji Yuan at the 1000th chapter. The story has almost 1.7m words and average almost 1.7k words per chapter.

    2. The Romantic Cultivator is actually about an unromantic cultivator Ji Yuan ugh) and not a romantic cultivator. Also, he is actually supposed to be an arrogant young master type and a ruffian cultivator. There are many readers that did not read the synopsis and did not understand this. Also, some other readers are expecting instant power up when there is a breakthrough at the very start. And there are some readers that are expecting for a smart MC and is always right or happen to meet low level enemies all the time. Not Ji Yuan.

    I know that many readers got unnerved when Ji Yuan tries to pit himself against the Old Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce and called his actions dumb from thements. But Ji Yuan got Jiajia with his dumb action by choosing to facing his challenge *chuckle*.

    There are also quite a few readers that are expecting the MC to p the others as aedy but I did say that it won''t happen because the MC will be pping himself instead. It is easier to write a pstickedy and a Mary Jane male hero. But not this story. I don''t want to write about an IQ 25 MC and everyone else has an IQ 20 that can''t plot.

    The story also has plenty of drama in the first 100 chapters, I know:X But without these drama, Ji Yuan will not be a romantic cultivator and rather, he will be a cunning and lustful cultivator instead. I have to fill JY''s 500 years of cultivation with his backstory and why he is still single until he finally meets Jiajia, the maiden of his dreams.

    There are many heroines in the story. Those that have been following me since A Martial Odyssey actually knows that the first heroine is always the main heroine.

    My speciality is actually writing about the heroines and their background story. I have some readersments in the early chapters why all the xianxia heroines are dumb or low intelligent. But we all know that it isn''t true if you continue to read on.

    Also the story of the Romantic Cultvator takes ce in the middle realm and not the lower mortal realm. The reason why is that in the Celestial Realm, almost everyone is a cultivator wherelse in the mortal realm, only the talented can be a cultivator. Many are in fact martial artists like in A Martial Odyssey. So I don''t wish to explore the lower mortal realm again.

    At the same time, the story is unique as Ji Yuan the MC starts off as saint instead of ground up, which may also make some readers ufortable.

    Finally, yes. The story may be harem but few hentai scenes. I''m so sorry. I just want to write something fun with plenty of mysteries.

    3. Lastly, thanks to all the readers for your love and support!

 Chapter 1001 The Nine Reincarnation Revolutions

    <h4>Chapter 1001 The Nine Reincarnation Revolutions</h4>

    ?

    Ji Yuan had suddenly put his face to the flustered Xuan Qiaoqiao to whispered, "You look really very beautiful when you are reddened¡­"

    He really could not resist telling her this especially when she was still in his embrace.

    This only caused Xuan Qiaoqiao to be even more reddened with flushes and her lips were trembling; she was thinking that this lecherous Ji Yuan was going to take her now and not in the bed. He was utterly shameless!

    The reason why Ji Yuan had ced his face near to Xuan Qiaoqiao was not because he had wanted to kiss her or to take advantage of her but he had the intention to whisper something in her ears. But before he could tell her what his ns were, his poet habit hade into y and he could not help praising her beautiful flush countenance.

    If it was not because he had wanted to tell her something important, he would have start recite a poem for praise her astonishing great beauty.

    He whispered as he leaned closely to her, "Maiden Qiaoqiao, I need to tell you this. That Maiden Juan Xian''Er must be watching us from outside this array¡­ I don''t know if she got the fetish of watching us or not but she isn''t going to let us go unless we copte together¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled as she thought: Juan Xian''Er is watching us now¡­ she is watching my humiliation?

    But this made a lot of sense to her but why is this Ji Yuan telling her this? Is he threatening her?

    Ji Yuan continued to whisper to her, "I have a n to get us out of this predicament. But I need your co-operation. Why don''t we pretend to copte and see what she would do next?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was shocked; Pretend to copte? Is there such a thing as pretending to copte?

    Seeing that the Cardinal Priestess did not react, Ji Yuan began to seize her up and to carry her.

    This startled Xuan Qiaoqiao who was suddenly gasping with shock: Is he for real?

    But how matter how she disliked this idea of copting with him but she could not bring herself to detest this despicable man for some unknown reason.

    Therefore, she did not struggle although it did not matter if she struggles or not since she did not have her profound strength. She was like amb that was led by this Ji Yuan to be ughtered.

    She could only pray that he would be gentle with her instead¡­

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both pestering Ji Yuan with questions now: What is your n? Howe we do not know that you have a n? Is there really a n? Or you are just trying to take advantage of the Cardinal Priestess?

    But Ji Yuan ignored them and he was grinning while carrying Xuan Qiaoqiao with his strong arms.

    As he carried her, he whispered to her. "If I am not wrong, then this Maiden Juan Xian''Er actually cares about you and she would surely step in if I were to do something funny to you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ji Yuan as she whispered softly, "She would be this kind? What if she doesn''t?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by her question.

    He had not really thought of that part yet. What if he was wrong and she did note? Then this would be too awkward, right?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was thinking: You just want to humiliate me in this manner by telling me that Juan Xian''Er is watching us. In this way, you will further humiliate me with your perverseness.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly before whispering, "Don''t worry. Trust me. She surely wille."

    Then he carried her to the bed and put her on the bed before jumping on the bed.

    He was shouting loudly now, "Haha. Such a great tempting great beauty. Today, you shall be mine! If I don''t bed you today then I am not Ji Yuan!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was not shocked by his sudden outburst. Rather she had turned her head away and there were tears in her eyes again.

    She was thinking: I am already taken by you. Why must you say it again¡­

    Then Ji Yuan was staring at Xuan Qiaoqiao and he was waiting for something to happen.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao waited for like an eternality before she turned to look at Ji Yuan who was frowning.

    Ji Yuan appeared to be hesitating what he should do next; he was actually waiting for Juan Xian''Er to appear but there was no sight from her or any disturbances from the array.

    When he saw that Xuan Qiaoqiao was looking at him, he returned a bitter smile to say. "Don''t misunderstood me. I am just trying to admire your beautiful body and I am wondering which part of your clothing should I be ripping instead."

    That was a lie; he had no intention of doing such a bestial act on the Cardinal Priestess and he had said so just for Juan Xian''Er to listen to.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao however, was breathing heavily as she looked at Ji Yuan and her bosoms were even heaving¡­

    In her mind, this beautiful man was going to force upon her very soon and she was at a total loss how she would react.

    It was impossible for her to scream like a vulnerable little maiden since she was a noble and powerful cultivator.

    Also, she was now feeling hot and greatly flustered at the thought that Ji Yuan was going to force himself on her.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly when he did not see Juan Xian''Er, "I am¡­ing¡­"

    He started to grab Xuan Qiaoqiao''s beautiful milky white leg to force it apart and he could even see her panties¡­

    "I am¡­ing¡­" Ji Yuan gulped dryly as he stared below her¡­

    But as he was not for real, there was an awkward look that was on his face as he thought: Don''t tell me that Juan Xian''Er is not around or her n really is for me to copte with the Cardinal Priestess?

    He said weakly to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "I am going to pull down your panties to admire your beautiful view¡­"

    When he had said that, this caused Xuan Qiaoqiao to gasp with a startled cry and her breathing became even more heavily.

    Xiang Li on the other hand was anticipating eagerly: Big Brother, I see now! So this is your real n!

    Just as Ji Yuan was still pondering what he should actually do next, a sweet chuckle could be heard in the room and it was from Juan Xian''Er.

    This startled Xuan Qiaoqiao but it delighted Ji Yuan instead. It was because Ji Yuan was waiting for her to take his bait!

    Juan Xian''Er chuckle from nowhere, "I can see that the two of you are enjoying your nuptial ties together."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had got up of the bed and she was screaming angrily, "Juan Xian''Er! I trust you as my best friend and a good sister! Yet you have betrayed me! Return my cultivation strength to me immediately! What did you do to my body?! Why did you attack me?!"

    Juan Xian''Er said coolly, "Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, our friendship is over! Yes, I''ve betrayed you and do you think that I will seek your forgiveness? I havee to humiliate you. My n is for this Ji Yuan to make a cuckold out of this Great Abyssal King Gong Magog. Can you imagine what the King Abyssal King Gong Magog would say if he found out that you are pregnant with a child from other man? Then won''t this be most humiliating for you? Then I can take over your position as Cardinal Priestess and be the new abyssal empress instead."

    Ji Yuan coolly said to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Don''t worry. High level cultivators like us have only a low chance of having a child. So her n won''t work."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao stared at Ji Yuan angrily before she said coldly, "Not if the cultivator practices the Nine Reincarnation Revolutions!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Juan Xian''Erughed jovially, "That''s right. The practitioner of the Nine Reincarnation Revolution will be quite fertile especially one that haspleted the full Nine Reincarnation Revolutions. Moreover she also has the Nine Yin Divine Body. There is no man that can resist a maiden with the Nine Yin Divine Body once they start to copte with her."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Don''t look at me like this. How do I know about this?"

    Then he quickly said to Juan Xian''Er, "Surely you didn''te to say this? Juan Xian''Er, what is it that you want?"

    Juan Xian''Er chuckled softly, "I should have remained quiet. But I just can''t resist interrupting your fake moments with the Cardinal Priestess. If you want to vite her, why don''t you do it quickly? What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for me?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Indeed I am waiting for her to join me in bed. So, are youing or not to join me here?"

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was shocked when she had heard Ji Yuan and her thought was that this Ji Yuan was really a pervert!

    Author Note:

    1. It isn''t a coincidence that the Cardinal Priestess name is Xuan Qiaoqiao and that she practices the Nine Reincarnation Revolution; she will have a daughter with Ji Yuan in the future and she is the lead heroine in Cultivation: To Kill the Witch.

    I was drafting some of the storyline for the Dark Abyssal while writing the Cultivation: To Kill the Witch to test some ideas.

    2. The ending of the Spirit Divine Realm arc ends rather abrupt on purpose since the five consorts won''t be with Ji Yuan at the end. Rather, they will receive a happier ending after the Spirit Divine Realm arc.

    The highlights of the Spirit Divine Realm is actually Ji Yuan''s duel with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao as this is a pivot part of the story and that the Xia Jiajia is the Great Beyond Goddess.

 Chapter 1002 This Plan Will Surely Works

    ?

    Ji Yuanughed and said to Juan Xian''Er again, "So, are youing to join me in the bed or not?"

    There was a brief silence from Juan Xian''Er before she chuckled aloud, "Sure, why not. But that will depend on your performance with the Cardinal Priestess first. Therefore, why don''t you hurry up and show me if you are a man or not?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was staring at Ji Yuan and she was most afraid that he would vite her; she saw that he had already spread her legs and his hands were almost reaching out to pull down her panties¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had pulled up the long nket over him and Xuan Qiaoqiao as heughed aloud, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er! I am afraid that you will soon be disappointed. It is because I don''t want like it when someone is peeping at me when I am in the act. However, I don''t mind if you dare to show up in the bed with me, muhahaha¡­."

    He was thinking: If she can''t see me then she maye out to stop me¡­

    Then he whispered to Xuan Qiaoqiao under the nket, "Maiden Qiaoqiao, I will pretend to vite you but I want you to scream aloud. As loud as possible."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled by his request; why would he want to pretend to vite her when he could it forcefully? She looked a little disappointed that he was not really going to vite her¡­

    She said coldly, "I am not amon whore that will scream. How do I know that you are actually tricking me to scream, only to try to vite meter?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned; her logic did not make any sense to him¡­

    Are they on a different wavelength?!

    He whispered to her, "Look. I am trying to get you out of here. If I am not wrong then this Maiden Juan Xian''Er is not trying to harm you. She is actually trying to protect you in her own way. Trust me, my instinct is always right¡­"

    When he had said that, Anyang and Xiang Li were both looking sheepish inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea; it was because they had often heard Ji Yuan saying so and he was often proven wrong.

    Ji Yuan continued to whisper to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "So are you going to scream or not?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was actually too awkward to scream and moreover she knows that Juan Xian''Er would be able to hear her screams. Her strong pride and noble upbringing actually prevent her from screaming out loud.

    No matter if she was a depraved harlot of this Ji Yuan, she just could not scream.

    When Ji Yuan saw that she was not screaming and not even replying him, he was a little exasperated; this maiden here was so docile just now but she had suddenly be so stubborn?

    It was not because Ji Yuan that could not understand maidens. But if any man says that they are able to understand a maiden then they are stupid. It is because no man can understand a maiden and even a maiden cannot understand another maiden too.

    He whispered again with some exasperation, "Are you going to scream out or not? If you scream then we can lure Juan Xian''Er out. Answer me, alright?"

    When he had asked her to answer him, he had also purposely touched her panties. This was to frighten her into answering him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao coldly said, "I don''t know how to scream."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was now looking a little angry because she did not seem to be cooperating with him.

    So he whispered angrily, "Fine! You don''t know how to scream then I shall make you scream instead¡­"

    When he had said that, he began to put his hands to grope her breasts.

    If he did not grope her then it would be a different matter. But once he had started to grope her, he would not stop as her breasts were too sensual and soft.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly groped her and she was aroused; she could even feel the wetness of her panties¡­

    But she bit her lips to suppress her moans because to her, it was too lewd!

    Ji Yuan was quite stunned to see that Xuan Qiaoqiao still refused to scream despite his best efforts. He whispered weakly, "If you scream then I shall stop, alright?"

    But still, Xuan Qiaoqiao refused to scream.

    Ji Yuan was actually quite aroused when he was groping her breasts and he could even feel her hardened nipples.

    He threatened her again, "if you don''t scream, then I shall do funny things to you."

    But still Xuan Qiaoqiao bit her lips hard and she was trembling with hot flushes as she tried to suppress her moans.

    When Ji Yuan saw that she still refused to scream aloud, he moved his hands to her panties and was quite startled to find out it was wet¡­

    He was thinking: Did she just have an orgasm or what?

    Ji Yuan was getting hot now and moreover Xiang Li was shouting bang, bang in the background.

    He had decided to give up because if he continued like this, he would surely lose control of himself in front of his astonishing heavenly beauty and this was not his n in the first ce.

    When he had suddenly stopped, Xuan Qiaoqiao looked hatefully at him and she was asking in her mind why had he stopped?!

    She would rather be forced by this Ji Yuan than to allow Juan Xian''Er to hear her lewd moans. After all, this was not the first time this Ji Yuan had taken her body.

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily as he had ruined his good reputation in front of the Cardinal Priestess and this was not what he had wanted.

    But Ji Yuan always had a n.

    So he tried to force a smile as he whispered to her, "Fine. You don''t want to scream, that''s fine with me too. I have another n that will surely get us out of here."

    Anyang and Xiang Li were astonished as they asked: You got another n?

    Xiang Li was protesting rather strongly, "But Big Brother, I like this n of yours. Why don''t you continue instead?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1003 Alright, My Plan B Will Surely Work!

    ?

    Ji Yuan of course did not listen to Xiang Li and he was already thinking about his n B.

    He whispered to Xuan Qiaoqiao under the nket, "Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao, I''m sorry for offending you earlier. I hope that you don''t mind and will forgive me¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao stared at Ji Yuan as she silently willed: Never! I will haunt you forever!

    Then Ji Yuan grinned a whisper, "I have a new n that will get us out of here. Although this n may not be perfected but you will be in safe hands."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ???

    Ji Yuan nodded when he saw her stunned expression, "Yes, I''m going to take you away."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was gasping softly and she was even more flustered: Take me away? He is taking me away? To where? Am I going to be his little consort from now onward?

    Ji Yuan suddenly said in his soul sea: Anyang, take us into inside the Great Oracle Gate!

    Anyang was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly called her out. But she quickly realized his n when he had issued his request.

    However, she warned him: The skull ring will be left behind. As it is a profound treasure, it won''t escape the eyes of Juan Xian''Er.

    Ji Yuan said: I''ll note on this. Bring us into the Great Oracle Gate now.

    Anyang answered: Alright then.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: Big Brother, you are not continuing your earlier n?

    Ji Yuan hadpletely ignored Xiang Li by now.

    There was a sudden sh of light as Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao had appeared in a towering forest.

    As they appeared together in a sh, Ji Yuan was lying on top of Xuan Qiaoqiao since that was actually the position when they were in the bed.

    This only caused Xuan Qiaoqiao to be more flustered when she could feel Ji Yuan''s strong and firm body pressing upon her soft body.

    What was worse was that Ji Yuan had appeared t on Xuan Qiaoqiao and he was kissing her lips¡­

    Ji Yuan could feel her sweet scent and taste when he had suddenly kissed her and he had quickly said, "This is really an ident! I didn''t mean to kiss you!"

    The heart of Xuan Qiaoqiao was pacing very quickly and she had turned her flushed face awkwardly away. This was her first kiss that she was aware of and she could taste Ji Yuan''s masculine scent which caused her beautiful eyes to be dull with thoughts of him¡­

    Ji Yuan could not tell what she was thinking but he was feeling rather awkward too because he had been taking advantage of this Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao since from the very start. But he liked her beautiful flushes¡­

    In this aspect, she was like Sun Dingjun who could flush so easily and Ji Yuan was mesmerized by her beautiful shy flushes.

    Ji Yuan reluctantly got off from her soft body that he had been pressing upon and he was apologetic, "I didn''t mean to kiss you¡­"

    It was only when Ji Yuan had got off from Xuan Qiaoqiao that she had suddenly noticed that she was in a green forest and she was startled; it was because the grasses and trees in the Dark Abyssal Realm were all red in pigment colors and not green.

    However Xuan Qiaoqiao did not feel that anything alien about the green forest and the sight was actually quiteforting to her eyes. In fact, her eyes had quickly adjusted to the lush green forest and there was a certain peaceful bliss that was within her.

    Ji Yuan quickly exined to her, "This is actually a pocket dimensional world. In here, we will be safe for now. At the very least now, we have escaped from the scrying eyes of Juan Xian''Er."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was looking around her while Ji Yuan was talking to her.

    She heaved a heavy sigh, "Being a prisoner of Juan Xian''Er out there or being a prisoner of you here, what difference does it make?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "You are not my prisoner. That is a big difference."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at him with blinking eyes and she was flushing, "I am¡­ not a prisoner?"

    I am his harlot? Or his maiden?

    Ji Yuanughed weakly when he saw her flushed looks and he had no idea what she was thinking, "Of course you are not my prisoner. I will surely free you once I have the opportunity to do so. But first I need to settle Juan Xian''Er first."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    Why do you want to settle Juan Xian''Er? Are you still thinking of that bitch?

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Come. I shall introduce you to my two maidens in the Delphi Pce here. Then you will know that I am a good man."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was truly shocked; she was thinking that this Ji Yuan had two more harlots that he had been keeping as prisoners in his Delphi Pce.

    Ji Yuan looked at the tall and towering trees as he said to her, "But you must follow me tightly and don''t stray away from me. In this way, I will be able to protect you. We have some time to reach the Delphi Pce and it may be very dangerous."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled, "This ce is dangerous? Isn''t this your ce?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "It is actually not my ce. I merely borrow this ce for a while without the permission of the mistress of this ce. This ce is full of high level profound beasts and many hidden dangers. Without a red ring to cross this forest to reach the Delphi Pce, the two of us will be vulnerable to the dangers here. Hahaha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    Is he joking with me?

    -

    -

    -

    When Juan Xian''Er saw that there were no sounds or movements from the room that she was monitoring, she was quite startled; it was because even the nket was t and the two persons that she was monitoring had also disappeared.

    rmed she shed into the room and to uncover the nket.

    To her shock, Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao had both disappeared!

    This was not supposed to be happening!

    Juan Xuan''Er was shocked that her n was now screwed and she was greatly rmed¡­

    Then she spotted a skull ring that was on the bed and she had slowly picked it up with a slight frown, "This ring¡­ is a true divinity profound treasure¡­ could it be that they are actually inside?"

    This Ji Yuan was too bizarre; he had actually thrown away a true divinity ring just to escape from her?

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly before she said to the skull ring, "Alright Ji Yuan. I must admit that I have lost in the battle of wits with you. You cane out now. Isn''t this your purpose in trying to lure me out? I am here now. Why don''t we talk instead?"

    But there was no reply from Ji Yuan.

    Total silence.

    Juan Xian''Er was now greatly rmed now; she had just lost the Cardinal Priestess to a stranger celestial and she was greatly afraid that the Cardinal Priestess maye to harm now since she had lost her cultivation strength.

    She panicky pleaded, "Ji Yuan! Come out now! I surrender! As long as youe out now, I will do anything that you want me to do, alright? Pleasee out now¡­"

    But there was totally no reply from Ji Yuan!

    She did not know whether to cry orugh at this moment because her ns seemed to be all screwed now¡­

    She could only mutter with great shock, "Qiaoqiao... I''m sorry to you..."

 Chapter 1004 Temptation In The Forest

    ?

    Ji Yuan grinned to the Cardinal Priestess, "Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao, just follow me and you will be absolutely safe. In no time, we will reach the Delphi Pce."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked with an emotional look, "Even from you?"

    In this forest, she seemed to have regained some of her regal bearings and she was also looking haughtily at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "Yes, even from me. Haha¡­"

    He was actually not sure if she may be safe from him if she keeps appearing in front of him¡­

    In fact, he dared not face her because he was aching below and he was a little afraid that she may notice.

    He was thinking: This is too sinful¡­

    But he said firmly, "Come follow me."

    As he walked into the forest, he was d that Xuan Qiaoqiao was also following him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had no idea why she had been so docile in front of this Ji Yuan; in the past, she was a lofty maiden and she did not need any man to protect her. But today, she actually found herself following him.

    She sighed to herself if she was actually debasing herself¡­

    After walking for a while, Xuan Qiaoqiao could not resist asking Ji Yuan. "Your energy cultivation seems strong. You don''t cultivate power, defense, body, spirit or aura?"

    Ji Yuan stared with a look of surprise at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "How do you know?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao lit a faint smile, "Although I have lost my cultivation strength but I didn''t lose my cultivation abilities. So why shouldn''t I see just from looking at you?"

    Ji Yuan frowned all of a sudden, "Then can you see other stuff as well?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao returned a look of perplexation, "What other stuff? Like?"

    Ji Yuan was naturally referring to his unbearable itch but he did not want to say it loud so he said, "Never mind."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked curiously, "So what sort of cultivator are you? Why did you only cultivate the energy?"

    Ji Yuan weakly answered, "I am a sword cultivator. I cultivate the sword energy. This is my cultivation dao."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded before she said nonchntly, "A sword energy cultivator may be powerful at the lower cultivation realm. But he will be weaker at the 5th cultivation realm level onward. In fact, he will be the weakest type of cultivator at the 7th cultivation realm level."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He smiled weakly, "Thanks for reminding me that."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed softly, "You should actually spend more time to cultivate your power, defense, body, spirit and aura as well. Or else, your cultivation growth will surely be stunted."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I don''t have the time¡­"

    He had actually wanted to say, he did not have the cultivation wealth or resources to do so.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said, "While talent determines your future potential but only by cultivating hard will you be able to build a solid cultivation foundation. If the foundation is weak then your upper limit will be unsteady and you will surely meet with many blockers in the future."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly when he had heard her and he was thinking weakly: These rich cultivators are all so good in their cultivation theories. Don''t they know that it is impossible to cultivate all aspects of cultivations?

    He grinned at her and asked, "Then how about you? What did you cultivate in?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao casually replied, "Mm. I am almost equally good in power, defense, body, spirit, aura, energy, arrays, talismans, alchemy, enchantments and 18 types of weapons. Your energy is the only area that is stronger than me but it isn''t stronger by too much."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Is she joking with me?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled to Ji Yuan, "It must be really difficult for a pure energy cultivator with a low cultivation base like you to reach the False Immortal level. Unless you have gained a sword spirit or be enlightened with a Sword Domain, it is impossible for you to even reach the False Immortal level."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I am indeed a sword saint and I have a Sword Domain."

    This Cardinal Priestess is so knowledgeable?!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly; she was right.

    Right now, she was like a cultivation teacher while Ji Yuan was like her cultivation prot¨¦g¨¦.

    She could not resist telling Ji Yuan, "So, you have to admit that I am indeed the superior cultivator while you are my inferior. In fact, my future is limitless. You ought to know that cultivation slows down the more you have aged so it is better that you spend more time building up your cultivation foundation right from the very beginning. A person like you may have many unwanted hot desires and you should avoid this distraction¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly: After I have banged you then I am the superior cultivator¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled heavenly, "Therefore it must have taken you at least 8000 years to reach your current cultivation level. Maybe even more. As for me, because I am never distracted by any hot desires or temptations, I am able to cultivate to the False Immortal level when I was merely 2000 years of age. Although it may seem that my potential is 4 times higher than you, it is actually more than 400 and even 4000 times more than you for future cultivation boundaries. It is because above the 7th cultivation realm, every little boundary step is extremely difficult!"

    She could not resist adding, So that''s why you need my Nine Yin Divine Body for your own cultivation because you have met with a cultivation blocker."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly rubbing his chin before he said, "8000 years? Erm, actually I am only 500 years old."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao almost stumbled when she had heard him and she was stammering, "You¡­ you¡­ are for real?"

    Her countenance was suddenly flushed red with great awkwardness; did she just p her own face by iming how superior she was?

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course it is real. I am only 500 years old. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had a almost perfect cultivation and she did not think that there was a man that could cultivate to the False Immortal level at only 500 years old. This was too absurd! And impossible!

    She stammered weakly, "I didn''t know that you will be so talented. What is your secret of cultivating then?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Secret? I have actually no secrets at all¡­"

    Then he was smiling as he recalled, "Oh yes. I am not sure if you could call this a secret. I was struck by 81 purple lightning before, got a Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao from my trial''s lucky chances and I have also eaten a Dao Fruit too as well as a 1000 cultivation attainment from an immortal pill. Does all these counts as my secret?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was struck dumbfounded; struck by 81 purple lightning and he could still survive? And received a Lesser and Greater Heavenly Dao as his cultivation base?! These two alone could already ce him as a godly cultivator without any equal!

    Not only is this Ji Yuan beautiful looking but he is also highly blessed by the Heavens¡­

    She was immediately intrigued by this Ji Yuan now.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao immediately put on a smile, "I didn''t know that you are such an outstanding cultivator. You say you have a Sword Domain? So, what is your Sword Domain then? You can share with me?"

    Ji Yuan did not notice her sudden change in attitude toward him and he simply casually said, "I have 5 to 6 Sword Domains. Hmm, which one should I start?"

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao had heard Ji Yuan, her legs had suddenly be jelly and she had suddenly fallen on Ji Yuan and knocking on him.

    Luckily for her, Ji Yuan had godly reflexes and quickly caught her in his arms.

    "Are you alright?" He asked.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked affectionately at Ji Yuan with soft eyes and she was gasping softly, "You are a Sword Deity?!"

    Ji Yuan was aware that he had the heavenly beautiful Xuan Qiaoqiao in his arms as he answered rather awkwardly, "Well, you can say so. But I prefer to be known as Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was now breathing quite heavily in his arms and her almost bared bosoms were heaving heavily too; she was flushed hotly as she was being held by Ji Yuan and she had even unconsciously held onto him more tightly than before.

    Her beautiful eyes were looking dreamily at Ji Yuan and she was thinking: Maybe this is a good distraction instead¡­

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Why is she looking at me like this? She is too sinful to look at. I can''t look at her anymore or I will surely lose control of myself¡­

    As he was in his thoughts, his fingers were trembling and he was actually moving his little fingers to stroke her smooth white and naked back.

    He gulped dryly as he also noticed her tempting heaving bosoms: I''ve promised to protect her while she is here, even from me¡­

    After he had groped her breasts earlier, it was really hard for him to resist the temptation of her breasts now¡­

    Xiang Li could not resist a soft chuckle: Big Brother, go bang, bang!

    Anyang said weakly to Xiang Li: Do you think our lord is like you? He is a true gentleman of the sword¡­

 Chapter 1005 Return To The Delphi Palace

    ?

    Ji Yuan actually did not bang Xuan Qiaoqiao but he had let her go with an ugly look on his bitter face.

    This ugly look was an unsatisfied look but he could not take advantage of a maiden that had lost her profound strength.

    Therefore, he was forced to turn around and to continue on his way.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was quite startled when Ji Yuan had only put her down and turned away; it was because at that moment she could see the lecherous looks that were on him and she had actually surrendered herself to be wantonly ravaged by him.

    The journey back to the Delphi Pce was not exactly eventful.

    There were actually a couple of dangers in the forest but Ji Yuan was able to warn the dangers off with his Flying Swords Sword Domain and his superior cultivation realm aura.

    Along the way, Xuan Qiaoqiao was no longer disying any of her lofty looks on Ji Yuan nor was she was cold to Ji Yuan anymore.

    Rather she was thinking: My Nine Yin Divine Body can not only benefit the cultivation man but also myself. So it isn''t bad if we dual cultivate together¡­

    Ji Yuan was able to find the perimeter of the Delphi Pce after 2 days and he was heaving with great relief that he did not meet any of the high level profound monsters, especially the big fat worm that he had previously encountered here.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little startled that there was actually a pce that was made of celestium stone deep inside the forest.

    What was more, she was surprised that there were many people at the outer perimeter of this pce.

    Old Fu and many others quickly rushed to greet Ji Yuan when they saw him. They were quite astonished that Ji Yuan had brought another astonishing beautiful maiden with him again.

    It seemed to them that Ji Yuan always had the apany of beautiful maidens with him all the time even though they did not know how he had managed to find them.

    Many of the beautiful maidens in the Delphi Pce were all looking disappointed again that Ji Yuan was in thepany of such a peerless maiden.

    None of these former ves could recognize that it was actually the Cardinal Priestess or else they would be greatly shocked.

    Ji Yuan said a few words of pleasantries to Old Fu and the rest before he departed with Xuan Qiaoqiao to the inner pce of the Delphi Pce.

    As they walked off, Ji Yuan exined to Xuan Qiaoqiao that they were actually the ves that he had set free when he had firste to her world.

    This startled Xuan Qiaoqiao as she was wondering why there were so many non-abyssals in this ce; she was just expecting the two maidens that Ji Yuan had mentioned.

    As soon as Ji Yuan had reached the inner pce of the Delphi Pce, Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er had all appeared in front of him and they were looking quite startled when they saw Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also quite startled to see two very beautiful maidens appearing and there was a look of unhappiness in her eyes; in her heart, they may well be herpetitors!

    Ji Yuanughed jovially when he saw Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er again; he was already delighted to see them again.

    Then he introduced everyone, "This is Divine Consort Tang Manni and Divine Consort Ding Jie''Er. They are from the Spirit Divine Realm. And this is the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, she is from the Dark Abyssal Realm."

    The three maidens did not exactly greet each other immediately. Instead, they were quietly appraising each other for a while and they had merely returned a slight nod when Ji Yuan was introducing them.

    Little Jie''Er asked Ji Yuan, "Cardinal Priestess? There are non-abyssals celestial sects like her in this world?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao did not wait for Ji Yuan to give an answer. "I am an Ancient Old One and also an abyssal. I may look like you but I''m not¡­"

    When she had said that, she had suddenly disyed her two golden feather wings from her back, startling Little Jie''Er, Tang Manni and Ji Yuan.

    Her golden wings had simply appeared all of a sudden without any warning!

    Ji Yuan saw that Xuan Qiaoqiao was even more beautiful with her golden feather wings and he was gasping.

    Tang Manni was gasping, "Ancient Old One? You are an Abyssal? Are you sure? You look like¡­ more like a Spiritas."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned, "I know the Spiritas. They are here in the Dark Abyssal too. But I am not a Spiritas."

    Tang Manni said with a look of surprise, "You may be a True Spiritas. In our records, the True Spiritas have wings like yours. However, our ancestor Spiritas already lost their wings when they are in the Divine Spirit Realm. This isn''t amon knowledge even in the Divine Spirit Realm and is just a myth that is essible only in our Divine Temple."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled, "True Spiritas?"

    She just could not connect herself to the pathetic spiritas in the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    "You may be wrong. I can cultivate the infernal energies here but the Spiritas cannot."

    Tang Manni looked at her curiously, "There is no infernal energies here and only spiritual energies. Are you able to cultivate in this ce?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little startled by this request and she began to close her eyes to concentrate.

    After a few breaths of time, she opened her eyes with a soft gasp. "Weird. I can actually draw upon the spiritual energies in this ce¡­ it is just not possible¡­"

    Tang Manni said to her with a thoughtful ponder, "It seems to me that your cultivation strength is being blocked, am I right? If you are able to drawn upon the spiritual energies then we are able to help you to unblock your cultivation strength."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was really startled and there was a look of hope in her eyes, "You can really help me to¡­ regain my cultivation strength?"

    Tang Manni smiled wryly, "This isn''t a great problem especially if you are able to cultivate with the spiritual energies here."

    Little Jie''Er giggled, "That''s right. This is just a small issue with us around."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao turned to look with a mixture of confusion at Ji Yuan who was smiling and she thought: They are willing to help me to regain my cultivation strength? But isn''t he the one that has caused me to lose my cultivation and profound strength in the first ce? Will he stop them? They are not together?"

    But Ji Yuan was grinning to her and saying, "This is good news!"

 Chapter 1006 The Temptations In The Next Room

    ?

    Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er had spent some time with Xuan Qiaoqiao as they taught her the Spirit Cultivation of the Spiritas.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was quite startled that many of the principles of the Spirit Cultivation was quite simr to the cultivation of the Ancient Old Ones.

    One must know that the cultivation of the Ancient Old Ones was also quite dissimr to the mainstream Abyssals'' cultivations and that was also the reason why the Ancient Old Ones did not have any fondness for the blood cultivations of the Abyssals. This was another reason why the Ancient Old Ones had forbidden their own kind from marrying outside their own race.

    Since the Ancient Old Ones used to be the divine rulers of the Dark Abyssal and they are considered to be untouchable as abyssal priests and priestesses of an older abyssal religion, plus they only have a small domain at the Nightfall Heights, most of the mainstream abyssals were willing to leave them alone.

    This of course got to do with the powerful cultivators of the Ancient Old Ones too.

    Without the powerful cultivators of the Ancient Old Ones to keep the mainstream abyssals at bay, these abyssals would have long sacked the Nightfall Heights a long time ago. One must know that once an abyssal transformed itself, their cultivation strength is on par with the 8th cultivation strength!

    The Ancient Old Ones unlike most of the mainstream abyssals did not practice the body cultivation to the extreme as their frail bodies were weak in that aspect.

    Tang Manni had told Xuan Qiaoqiao, "The reason why you are unable to muster your profound strength is because your cultivation strength is being suppressed in several parts of your cultivation core by someone that seems to know your cultivation well. However, the person that suppress you can only do it temporary since your cultivation strength is actually still intact. You can either choose to wait until your suppression has fade off or you can practice our spirit cultivation to increase the pressure on the suppression. In just a few days, you will be able to lift the suppression."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had nodded to Tang Manni; it was because Juan Xian''Er had indeed known about her Nine Reincarnation Revolution only too well because she was also a practitioner of the Nine Reincarnation Revolution profound art.

    She was just surprised that Ji Yuan was not bothered if she could regain her profound strength or not.

    Am I wrong in my deduction? Ji Yuan and Juan Xian''Er are not in cahoots?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was actually alone in a room as she quietly cultivated the Spirit Cultivation and she was lost in her own thoughts.

    As for Ji Yuan and the other two maidens, they had left her to quietly cultivate on her own after Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er had guided her.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had a sudden thought as she cultivated: Why don''t I spy on them? Maybe they are hiding something from me?

    Although this room and even the room that they were in were surrounded by defensive arrays against sounds and scrying, it was not an issue for her.

    It was because she was quite a cultivation expert in arrays herself and she had often spied on her elders secretly in the past.

    Although she could not muster her profound strength but her cultivation realm was intact and her divine sense was also intact.

    She was actually quite good in using her divine sense to unravel past the defensive arrays. She could tell that Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er were both at the 7th cultivation realm level.

    So as she cultivated, she began to gently extended her spirit divine sense to feel the defensive arrays around her.

    She was quite relieved that this was actually amon type of defensive array that she had unraveled before in the past.

    However, it still took her some time topletely mapped out the defensive arrays as it actually consisted of 3 main types: Anti-sound, rm and a barrier array.

    Every array setup is different and it is heavily customized by the skill of the cultivators.

    The defensive arrays around her were actually quite sophisticated and she was impressed by the skills of Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er.

    However, they were still too young and too simple.

    It was because their arrays were still too simple unlike the one that Juan Xian''Er had used to confine her and Ji Yuan.

    With a faint smile, she hadpletely understood their spirit arrays setup and she could even extend her spirit divine sense beyond these arrays.

    Her spirit divine sense was soon extending to a room that had a simr setup and she guessed that they should be inside since it had been activated.

    Now she was not foolish to barge her divine sense into the room; it was because they were after all high level cultivators and they could instantly sense the presence of her divine sense. Then she would be screwed.

    Therefore, she could had only extended her hearings to just outside the room to listen in.

    Luckly for her, she could hear 3 voices inside the room and they were indeed the voices of Ji Yuan, Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er.

    They were indeed together.

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially, "Yes, I did enter the abyssal city and they all thought that I am a ve. Haha¡­ and that is how I have met this Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao."

    Little Jie''Er asked curiously, "So this Maiden Qiaoqiao is the Cardinal Priestess and she is supposed to marry the Abyssal King of this kingdom?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That''s right."

    Little Jie''Er frowned, "What an ipatible match¡­"

    "I agree too," Tang Manni was heard saying.

    Tang Manni added after a quick pause, "So you got trapped in a room? By this Maiden Juan Xian''Er?"

    "Yeah¡­"

    Little Jie''Er was heard sighing, "Why did you have to go to her room?"

    Ji Yuan was heard exining, "As I had said, I was meditating peacefully in my room when this Maiden Juan Xian''Er had shown up and she said that she needed a strong help to move her bed or she can''t sleep. I was being a kind cultivator so I went to her room to help. You know, it is only the room next door. How the heck did I suppose to know that she would setup a confinement array in a tavern just to snap me?"

    Ji Yuan had changed some of the story to his own version when he was retelling his story; he can''t tell them that Maiden Juan Xian''Er had told him that there was a beautiful maiden more beautiful than her in her room, right?

    Tang Manni asked, "Is this Maiden Juan Xian''Er a beautiful maiden?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "She is actually an ugly maiden. Very ugly."

    When he had said that, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were heard giggling with great delight.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao was smiling too when she had heard that Ji Yuan did not fancy Juan Xian''Er at all and he even thought that she was ugly.

    She began to wonder if she may be considered beautiful in Ji Yuan''s eyes?

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "I have never thought that the heart of this Maiden Juan Xian''Er would be so vicious that she was actually asking me to cuckold the Abyssal King Gong Magog. As a gentlemen of the sword, naturally I would never do such a thing at all! And I am sure that the two of you knows that I am not a beast of a man too!"

    Tang Manni said, "We believe you, Ji Yuan. But this Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao is really such a heavenly beauty, are you sure that your heart is not moved by her?"

    Little Jie''Er curiously asked, "Not even once?"

    Ji Yuan answered solemnly, "My Dao Heart is perfectly steady."

    He was lying of course. His heart was not steady but his Dao Heart did not need to refer to his feeling toward Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    But Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were giggling when they had heard him; they were taken in by his misleading statement.

    It was not only them but Xuan Qiaoqiao as well.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    He has no feelings for me at all?

    All of a sudden there were soft screaming in the room by Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    They were panicky saying, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan was heard saying, "I am missing the two of you so much. I am going to strip the two of you naked today¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, no¡­"

    Ji Yuan was heardughing softly and there were more screams.

    "Ji Yuan, don''t be too rough. You are tearing my clothes¡­"

    But there were more jovialughs from Ji Yuan and there were even pping sounds.

    Ji Yuan was gasping, "Manni, Little Jie''Er¡­ I simply love your butts and I love to p on your butts¡­"

    There were suddenly more screaming from Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er.

    "Shameless!"

    "Ji Yuan, you are too shameless¡­"

    "Must you make us so awkward¡­"

    Soon there were the sounds of many pping, thrusting and even heart-shivering lewd moans!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was greatly flustered; needless to say, she knows what they were doing inside there.

    She could now even hear heavy breathing from Ji Yuan and even the sounds of water pipes leaking in the room. Also, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were both screaming and moaning loudly together.

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao heard their moans, her entire body was suddenly twitching.

    She thought: So, this is screaming? Is that why he wants me to scream that night? This is the type of screams that he likes?

    But I don''t know how to scream¡­

    She was feeling a little wet below.

    Although she was still a chaste maiden but she had a young body after all and asionally she still needed to flush her desires out.

    But listening to the three of them making out, she was feeling an unbearable heat in her body¡­

    However, she did not stop listening and was even afraid that she may miss out on any vital information about this Ji Yuan¡­

 Chapter 1007 Having A Good Time Together

    ?

    Ji Yuan was nowying naked on the bed with the equally naked Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er next to him; they were all exhausted from their long lovemaking sessions.

    Ji Yuan had the two of them on his left and right.

    Right now, he had his strong arms around their naked bodies and they were also looking at Ji Yuan with satisfied looks and dreamy eyes.

    Ji Yuan had not just banged them hard but he was also thinking of Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er too when he was banging them.

    He finally got a good release and he was also feeling quite satisfied.

    Xiang Li was also feeling very satisfied this time.

    And so was Anyang even though she was verbally denying it but her eyes were honest.

    They were all very satisfied and very wet.

    In another room, Xuan Qiaoqiao was the only one that was not feeling satisfied¡­

    She was wet but not satisfied at all.

    "I got a question," Ji Yuan suddenly asked.

    Tang Manni, Little Jie: ???

    Ji Yuan said, "What is a True Spiritas? How are they different from you? Except for the wings I mean."

    Tang Manni smiled, "It is an old myth. I''m not too sure¡­"

    "I know!" Little Jie''Er giggled softly. She likes to read the obscure texts even though it got nothing to do with cultivations.

    "I''ve read somewhere that the True Devil God had used his golden blood on the original Spiritas in the Spirit Divine Realm in the past to suppress the true nature of the Spiritas. As for what this true nature of the Spiritas, I do not know."

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin before he asked, "Don''t tell me that the True Devil God had suppressed the infernal cultivation bloodline of the Spiritas in the past?"

    Little Jie''Er giggled softly, "Maybe. I don''t know for sure. Although we don''t have any feathery wings like Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao but we can shape our profound animus into the shape of spirit wings when we are at the 7th Spirit Realm and we can fly."

    Ji Yuan nodded; in this aspect the Spiritas is superior to the celestials.

    There should be a hidden forgotten history and a link between the Spirit Divine Realm and the Dark Abyssal Realm that he did not know of.

    When Tang Manni saw Ji Yuan''s pondering looks, she giggled to offer a helpful suggestion. "Perhaps the True Devil God is actually an abyssal from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm in the past?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    No way!

    Do you know that I am the reincarnation of the True Devil God in the past?

    Therefore, I am not an abyssal.

    He firmly insisted in his mind: Therefore, I am a celestial!

    After he had denied this possibility, Ji Yuan felt good within him.

    It did not matter to him if this possibility was true or not. The only thing that matter was that Ji Yuan feltfortable with his deduction.

    His thoughts were naturally heard by Anyang who was shaking her head with disbelief that Ji Yuan was just too good in his own delusions.

    Xiang Li on the other hand was saying proudly: Yeah! My Big Brother is never an abyssal!

    Anyang: ¡­

    She was thinking: The two of them are so good in their own delusions¡­

    Ji Yuan asked, "How long before Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao is able to regain the use of her profound strength?"

    Tang Manni smiled, "I think no more than 3 days. She is able to understand our Spirit Cultivation quite well. She is truly a genius."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Good. Help me to take care of her while I will be going away for a while."

    This startled Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as they asked panicky, "Where are¡­ you going?!"

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao who was secretly listening to their conversations were startled as she thought: Where is he going? He isn''t going to wait for me to regain my cultivation strength?

    For the past few days that she had been with Ji Yuan, she realized that she may have wronged him. Moreover, if what he had said was the truth to the two maidens then he was just someone who got tricked by Juan Xian''Er too.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, I have someone that is still waiting for me outside. Haha¡­ so I got a score to settle with her."

    Little Jie''Er asked, "You mean that ugly Maiden Juan Xian''Er?"

    Ji Yuan grinned with delight, "Yes, that ugly Maiden Juan Xian''Er. She must be waiting quite impatiently for the past few days. Haha¡­"

    Tang Manni asked with an anxious look, "You are going to confront her? Are you her match? Do you need our help?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "If this Maiden Juan Xian''Er cultivation is the False Immortal level exactly as Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao had said, then the two of you won''t be of much help against her."

    "Moreover," he was suddenly grinning. "If I can''t defeat her then I can easily escape back to this ce again. I think there is nothing she can do to me."

    Tang Manni asked, "What if she manages to figure out a way to enter this ce?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Surely not. She doesn''t look too smart¡­"

    Anyang weakly said in his soul sea: She is smarter than you, my lord¡­

    Ji Yuan was about to get out of the bed when he saw that Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were holding onto him tightly.

    He gently kissed their foreheads and smiled to them, "I miss the two of you too. Don''t worry. I''ll be back very quickly. There is something that I need to confront with this Maiden Juan Xian''Er as I don''t know her real motives. If she doesn''t mean any harm then it would at least please her so that her friend Xuan Qiaoqiao is doing fine now¡­"

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao had heard Ji Yuan, she was cursing hatefully at Juan Xian''Er in her heart: She isn''t my friend anymore! I swear that I will kill her once I have regained my cultivation strength! How dares she humiliates me like this!

 Chapter 1008 The Bathtub Encounter

    ?

    Juan Xian''Er was in a daze as she sat inside arge bathtub with many scented flowers; she had lost the Cardinal Priestess and Ji Yuan all of a sudden.

    At this moment, she was looking at the skull ring that she had found where Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao had disappeared.

    It had already been more than 3 days since their disappearances.

    Previously she had not noticed anything unusual about this skull ring because it could disguise its profound signature to that of the wearer and hence it would only appear as an ordinary ring. Only when it was removed then its true nature would be revealed.

    She found it impossible to believe that Ji Yuan would just disappear just like this and there were a few possibilities that were in her mind now.

    The first possibility is that this skull ring may have triggered a powerful teleportation shift that could even breech her confinement array. This is after all a true divinity skull ring and it was totally capable of performing such a teleportation shift.

    If so, where did they go now?

    The second possibility is the least possible. This skull ring may be a pocket dimension. Then this would be a most wondrous and valuable profound treasure because this is extremely rare. But if this is the case, would any dumb cultivator be so dumb enough to abandon this skull ring just like this?

    Also, if they have escaped into the pocket dimension of this skull ring then this would not really be considered as an escape because they are technically still inside this room.

    Or is this Ji Yuan just trying to bait me into the pocket dimension?

    How the heck does she knows how to enter into the pocket dimension of a true divinity treasure without the know-how in the first ce?

    Either way, she could not think of any reasons why this Ji Yuan would surrender a true divinity profound treasure just like that.

    For the past 3 days, she had exhausted all methods in trying to unravel the mysteries of this skull ring but she had failed; this true divinity ring was simply beyond her ability to unravel despites all her best efforts.

    She now feared for the worst for the Cardinal Priestess and she feared that she may have been ravaged by this Ji Yuan already and this was all her fault¡­

    She actually did not want Xuan Qiaoqiao toe to any harm and had to resort to this scheme because she had no other choice. It was because¡­

    All of a sudden there was a sh of light and she was startled that a heavy body seemed to have crashed into her.

    It was actually the figure of a man; he knocked his head against her and had even kissed her headlong!

    Juan Xian''Er waspletely stunned that a man had kissed her just like this and in her most awkward moment.

    She was so stunned that she had even forgotten to scream...

    And she was even more startled to see Ji Yuan suddenly popping up when she was bathing in the bathtub!

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite startled when he had popped up when Juan Xian''Er was taking a bath and he saw that she waspletely naked...

    And his eyes were gleaming with great delight at this wondrous sight...

    There was a sh of anger from Juan Xian''Er and she quickly pushed Ji Yuan away.

    Just as she was about to raise her profound strength to smack him, Ji Yuanughed. "Wait! Wait! If you hit me like this, this bathtub may burst and I shall be able to see your full glory. Do you want this to happen?"

    Juan Xian''Er was startled and she did not think of this.

    She covered her body with her hands and said coldly to Ji Yuan, "Get out of the bathtub first."

    This bathtub was circr in shape and at this moment, only their heads and shoulders could be seen surfacing above the water level.

    Ji Yuan''s eyes were looking below the waters and he was trying to look beyond her waist; he had not expected to be able to see Juan Xian''Er naked body when he had returned from the Great Oracle Gate.

    And he was gasping, "Beautiful, beautiful¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er angrily said, "Did you hear what I have just said? Get out of the bathtub first! If you don''t, don''t me me for being rough with youter!"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he continued to stare at her, "I don''t mind a rough y actually."

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    She was really provoked by Ji Yuan now and she had raised one hand to p his face while covering her bosoms with the other hand.

    But Ji Yuan was faster than her; he did not exactly used his hand to block her p or to avoid her p. Instead, he had caught hold of her waist in the water and had pulled her closer to him.

    Juan Xian''Er was startled and she was immediately flustered.

    She was most afraid that Ji Yuan may touch her somewhere else.

    Instead, she quickly sshed some water into his face and she had turned around to lift herself from the water.

    Never mind if she was going to expose her naked butt to this Ji Yuan!

    If he was not getting out of this bathtub then she would be leaving instead!

    But Ji Yuan caught hold of her slippery body as she lifted herself up and he was now pressing his weight on her, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er, where do you think that you are going? We have almost the same cultivation strength. Although you may be able to break free from me but I dare not say that this bathtub will be able to withstand the might of our fight. Or are you willing to show me your full glory?"

    Juan Xian''Er was flushing hotly; there was no man that ever did this to her and moreover, this man was pressing his body on her in such an intimately manner.

    She could not help gasping with an angry look, "Let me go, you lecherous man! What did you do with the Cardinal Priestess?!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Calm down first. I didn''t do anything to the Cardinal Priestess at all. I am not a beast of a man¡­"

    Xiang Li protested in his soul sea: No Big Brother! You are a beast of a man and will always be a beast of a man in my heart!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan almost choked when he had heard Xiang Li and he had almost forgotten what he was trying to tell Juan Xian''Er.

    Xiang Li, do you know that this isn''t supposed to be a good word?!

    Juan Xian''Er gasped softly, "You really didn''t do anything to the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Ji Yuan ignored Xiang Li and he returned his attention to Juan Xian''Er as he answered, "That''s right. I didn''t do anything to her at all. If you don''t believe me, I can lead you to her and you can ask herter. How about that?"

    Juan Xian''Er slowly nodded.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Also, you must return my skull ring and tells me what you are nning. I don''t really appreciate being in the dark about a plot, especially when it is against me."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "I have no problem returning you the skull ring but I have to check if the Cardinal Priestess is alright first before I tell you about my ns."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I have no problem about that!"

    Juan Xian''Er flushed a weak smile, "Now, can you get out of the bathtub and go to the other room while I am changing?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling rather awkwardly as he could feel Juan Xian''Er soft body and he could see her flustered she looked. But the more flustered she looked, she looked really very beautiful and the more that he did not want to get out of the bathtub.

    Although he did not want to get out of the bathtub, he had to do so.

    So he tried jumping out of the bathtub but he had misjudgeded something; the bathtub was too slippery and he had fallen on Juan Xian''Er headlong again to give her another forceful kiss.

    This time it was slightly worse; both of his hands were on her boobs as he was trying to support himself...

    Juan Xian''Er quickly pushed him away with an exasperated and a flustered look, "Did you do that on purpose?!"

    Ji Yuan panicky tried to exin, "Listen to me! This is a purely an ident! How do I know that the bottom of the bathtub is so slippery? Trust me! Usually I am not that clumsy!"

 Chapter 1009 Juan Xianâ€™Er, come follow me!

    <h4>Chapter 1009 Juan Xian''Er,e follow me!</h4>

    Ji Yuan and Juan Xian''Er were now inside the Great Oracle Gate.

    Like Xuan Qiaoqiao before her, Juan Xian''Er was quite surprised to see green forest for the very first instead of the red forests.

    She was doubly surprised because she was quite startled to find out that the inside the skull ring was actually a pocket dimension world.

    One must know that only the truly emperor level powerhouses of the Six Immortal Realms could possess a pocket dimension world and in their pocket dimension worlds, they were the True Gods and even thews of the ce were twisted in their ce.

    Jian Xian''Er ended up asking the same question as Xuan Qiaoqiao, "This world belongs to you?"

    When she had asked this question, her cheeks were still flustered from the earlier happenstance when Ji Yuan hadnded in her bathtub; she had no idea how much Ji Yuan had seen with his eyes¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It actually belongs to a friend of mine. Haha¡­"

    Then he quickly added a word of caution, "This ce is actually full of dangers and there are many high level profound beasts in this ce. But the most dangerous are the weird spirit nts that are in this ce. So, don''t be greedy or eager to pick any spirit nts in this ce."

    Juan Xian''Er said coldly, "Don''t worry, I won''t pluck any of your stuff here."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I don''t own this ce."

    Juan Xian''Er looked at him with a look of disbelief, "If you don''t own this ce then how do you get into this ce ande to wear that skull ring?"

    One must know that Juan Xian''Er is a cultivator genius and she had tried many methods to gain ess to the skull ring''s profound secrets for the past 3 days. And she had failed.

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin and smiled wryly, "That is because I am a genius."

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually delighted when he saw her looks of disbelief; he was actually admiring her beautiful look and figure, especially after she had changed to a beautiful golden robe that showed the tightness of her full bosoms and her curvy butt. And of course, also her beautiful long legs.

    Juan Xian''Er said to Ji Yuan, "I hope that this isn''t a trick from you to ambush me in this ce. You must know that I am actually capable of taking you down if I want to. If the Cardinal Priestess isn''t in this ce or she hase to harm, I won''t forgive you. I am only willing toe with you because you have the Cardinal Priestess in your hands."

    Ji Yuan shed a grin to her, "You know. When you ask me to go to your room, I didn''t think that you would try to trick me. But I am not like you. I won''t trick you."

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    She was soon heaving a soft sigh, "I have my own difficulties. When we meet up with the Cardinal Priestess, you will know the reason."

    Ji Yuan asked, "You can''t tell me the reason now?"

    Juan Xian''Er looked away and did not say anything.

    Ji Yuan asked again, "At one point of the time, you are thinking of killing me?"

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    She sighed softly, "I won''t deny it. I have to ensure that you are the man that I am looking for. If you were toy your hands on the Cardinal Priestess, then I would have killed you instantly."

    Then she said coldly, "Therefore you have to ensure to me that the Cardinal Priestess is in good hands now and you did not do anything funny to her. Or else, I would still have to kill youter."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t worry. I am actually a gentleman of the sword. So, I didn''t touch her or do anything funny to her."

    "You, however on the other hand¡­" he could not resist adding with a chuckle. "I''ve a great interest."

    Juan Xian''Er flushed even more but she continued to say coldly, "You don''t know me at all."

    Ji Yuan smiled, "After we have spent some time together, then won''t we know each other well?"

    Juan Xian''Er looked amused, "Do you think that I am a foolish young maiden that will be easily be taken in by your ttery."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Indeed you are not. That is why I am this saying to you. After all, I do need a guide in the Dark Abyssal. Maybe you can help me?"

    Juan Xian''Er answered nonchntly, "I can consider this after I have seen the Cardinal Priestess is exactly as you have said."

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he continued to walk into the forest but he was still chatting noisily, "This Abyssal King Gong Magog. Why do you want me to cuckold him but you actually do not want me to cuckold him? Are you thinking of using me as a bait to draw him out?"

    Juan Xian''Er was startled, "You know?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I know half of the picture by now. If I am not wrong then you are also at the Bloody Forest that day. But I seem to have screwed up your n by killing the Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha."

    "I won''t deny this." Juan Xian''Er simply said quietly and refused to say further.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he continued, "This caused your original n to fail. When this n fails, you are supposed to assassinate the Abyssal King Gong Magog with the Cardinal Priestess. But because you think that this is unwise, you have decided on a new n and that is, you try to make use of me to bait the Abyssal King Gong Magog out."

    Juan Xian''Er heaved a deep sigh as she stared nkly at him, "How did you know so much?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "If I tell you that it is Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao that told me about this, would you believe me?"

    Juan Xian''Er gasped with great disbelief, "You even know the name of the Cardinal Priestess?!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "There is nothing wrong with this right? She is the one that told me her name. It is just her name. I didn''t do anything to her."

    Juan Xian''Er inhaled heavily, "You¡­ I don''t know what to say¡­"

 Chapter 1010 Juan Xianâ€™Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1010 Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (1)</h4>

    Ji Yuan and Juan Xian''Er were in the forest for 2 days now.

    Juan Xian''Er said exasperatingly to Ji Yuan, "Are you trying to pull my leg? Where is the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Patience, patience. We are reaching the Delphi Pce very soon now."

    Juan Xian''Er stared with disbelief at Ji Yuan, "You look like you are lost?"

    Ji Yuan returned an awkward look, "Of course I am not lost. It is just that this forest is too big and is constantly changing. It is never the same and even the starting point is also different."

    Juan Xian''Er added coldly, "You forget to add that even the profound beasts in this ce are also unfriendly to you too."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly.

    Indeed.

    In the past 2 days, they had encountered several high level profound beasts. But they were not too high level to cause any difficulties to Ji Yuan or to Juan Xian''Er and they were more of a nuisance to him instead.

    Juan Xian''Er asked Ji Yuan suspiciously, "Are you stalling for time?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Of course not!"

    Juan Xian''Er asked again, "Or are you trying to do something funny to me in this forest and leading me to an ambush?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly lied, "Of course not."

    He was indeed thinking of holding her in the forest after he had kissed her moist lips twice and after he had a feel of her soft beautiful body.

    However, this was only in his thoughts and of course he was not really thinking of forcing himself on her. But he did have funny designs on her for the past 2 days.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was saved by the sight several white pirs in front of the forest, "Look! We have found the Delphi Pce! Haha¡­ See! I didn''t lie to you!"

    Juan Xian''Er immediately shed ahead of the forest and she was quite startled to see a grandeur white pce had suddenly appeared in the middle of this forest.

    Moreover she could sense that this ce was protected by many formidable arrays.

    Ji Yuan had also shed next to her and he was grinning, "The Cardinal Priestess is inside this pce. Follow me!"

    Ji Yuan soon brought Juan Xian''Er into the outer pce where he met with Old Fu and many of the freed ves again.

    Old Fu was astonished that Ji Yuan had brought another astonishing maiden with him again!

    Juan Xian''Er looked startled but she was not entirely surprised; she had been wondering where Ji Yuan had been the freed ves safe.

    She had indeed observed Ji Yuan with thispany before in the Bloody Forest but she did not stay for too long and she did not know that they had taken refuge inside the skull ring; she had actually guessed that Ji Yuan had a hiding ce for them inside the Bloody Forest or either that, he must have taken all of them as his blood cauldrons to be made into medicinal profound pills.

    Ji Yuan simply chatted with Old Fu for a while before he ushered Juan Xian''Er to the inner pce.

    Soon it was just Ji Yuan and Juan Xian''Er again.

    "The Cardinal Priestess is in this ce."

    Ji Yuan walked into the beautiful hallway of the inner Delphi Pce as he said to Juan Xian''Er.

    He was now in a jovial mood now because he could soon see Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er again; he had some unfinished business with them. Also, he could soon see Xuan Qiaoqiao again too.

    He thought that Xuan Qiaoqiao may be quite delighted to see Juan Xian''Er again after they had resolved their misunderstandings.

    As Ji Yuan and Juan Xian''Er walked in the hallway, there was a sudden sh of a shadow and a most beautiful maiden had shed in the hallway.

    It was actually Xuan Qiaoqiao!

    Ji Yuan was startled that it was not Tang Manni or Little Jie''Er that was here to greet him first.

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao saw Juan Xian''Er, she began to said coldly. "Juan Xian''Er! You have dared to appear in my presence!"

    Juan Xian''Er immediately said, "My good sister¡­ please hear my exnation. I have my reasons for doing so. I hope that you can understand."

    Ji Yuan also helped to say, "I think there may be a misunderstanding between the two of you."

    Then he looked at Juan Xian''Er and said, "Now that we are here, do you think that you can now tell me why you have set me up?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned slowly, "Misunderstanding? I don''t believe."

    Ji Yuan said to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Maybe we should hear the exnation from Maiden Juan Xian''Er first, alright?"

    There was a look of hostility that was Xuan Qiaoqiao to Juan Xian''Er but when she turned to look at Ji Yuan, there was a soft look in her eyes. "Alright then. But it is only because this is your request."

    Then she shot an angry look at Juan Xian''Er, "You have robbed me of my cultivation strength and not only that, you have even thrown me to this beast of man. What a good sister you are!"

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Good sister, you have misunderstood my good intentions. Under my careful watch, I have ensured that you won''t lose your chastity to this man. If so, I would have killed him first!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "You are lying! Do you think that I did not know that he had vited me? I can¡­"

    She was suddenly flushing as she stolen a nce at Ji Yuan, "I can¡­ feel and still remembered his wicked touches on me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking: I didn''t know my touches would be this wicked¡­

    Juan Xian''Er interrupted awkwardly, "Good sister, you have misunderstood. It is me that has touched you. Can you please hear my exnations first?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled as she stared at Juan Xian''Er, "It is you instead?!"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded slowly, "Yes, it is me. I did it to mislead you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was frowning, "Why did you do that for? Do you know that you have ruined my good reputation?"

 Chapter 1011 Juan Xianâ€™Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1011 Juan Xian¡¯Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (2)</h4>

    Juan Xian''Er was looking quite ashamed of herself as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "My good sister. Trust me. What I did is purely for your own good. Putting you with this Ji Yuan here is just a temporary measure and I didn''t have any choice."

    The Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "Go on."

    This was actually a confrontation between these two ''friends'' so Ji Yuan could only mutter on the side, "I am actually the poor victim in this case. I didn''t even know what is going on around here¡­"

    Although Ji Yuan''s voice was really soft but Juan Xian''Er could hear him quite well but she ignored him because she had noticed that he actually talked a lot in the past 2 days that she was with him; in fact, he could talk endlessly even if she was not interested to carry on in his conversations.

    She had seriously never met anyone that could talk as much as Ji Yuan and moreover, he was quite shameless about it and never learnt to shut up.

    The worse thing was that he kept asking if she was attached or ever had any dao partners. And then, he had to ask her about her age.

    Half of the time, she pretended she was paying any attention to him to avoid talking with him.

    Juan Xian''Er was now saying to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "If you remember our n A. That is, I am supposed to help you to kidnap the Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha. And then we can use him as a bargaining tool for you to reject the Abyssal King Gong Magog''s demands. Well, when I reach the Bloody Forest, I saw¡­"

    She then pointed at Ji Yuan and said quietly, "I saw this man Ji Yuan had already killed him and his protectors too."

    When she had said that, Xuan Qiaoqiao turned slowly to stare at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan awkwardly muttered, "How the heck did I know that the abyssals that I had killed was one Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha. He was trying to kill me, you know."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "That is when I know that the mission that you have give me has failed. That is why I have to quickly hatch another n¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "And your another n is to ambush me when I am vulnerable!"

    Juan Xian''Er quickly exined, "It was actually ast minute n. I didn''t expect to meet this Ji Yuan again in the same tavern that we are at. I can''t carry out our assassination n against the Abyssal King Gong Magog because I don''t want to risk losing my dear friend in the attempt. Therefore, I''ve thought of making use of this Ji Yuan to help me. However, I need to test him first."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "That is when you brought me to your room to show me the naked Cardinal Priestess."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was flustered when Ji Yuan had suddenly mentioned that she was naked¡­

    Juan Xian''Er nodded as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Right. And I had run my fingers on her. It is to mislead her into thinking that you have touched her. In this way, the Cardinal Priestess would be hostile toward you. The other reason is that I want to know what kind of a man are you. If you have dared to vite the Cardinal Priestess back then, I would have killed you on the spot."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly: Actually, I am not so easily to be killed by you¡­

    He had kept this as his silence thoughts.

    Juan Xian''Er then turned to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Then did he¡­ do anything funny to you while you are here?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly said, "No. This Ji Yuan is a gentleman of the sword."

    When Ji Yuan heard her praises, he was grinning. "Yeah I am! I told you so!"

    Juan Xian''Er looked quite relieved and she turned to smile at Ji Yuan, "I''m sorry that I have used such a drastic measure to test you."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I don''t mind at all."

    After all, he had taken advantage of these two such beautiful maidens over the past few days so naturally he did not mind at all.

    Juan Xian''Er looked to look awkwardly at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "My good sister, you will forgive me? I know that I did you wrong but trust me. I didn''t want you to take any risks. I don''t mind dying for you but I just don''t want anything to happen to you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed softly, "I understand now, sister. Alright then¡­ I forgive you. Now, will you restore my cultivation strength now and then we talk about a new feasible n?"

    Ji Yuan was looking quite relieved that these two former good friends had made up again. The bad thing was, he may have to help them to settle their problems. He actually did not mind helping them if he could earn his ughter points at the same time too.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled as she hastily walked up to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Thank you my good sister. I''ll help you to regain your cultivation strength now."

    With that, she had mustered her profound strength as she raised her fingers, "My good sister, this is going to hurt very briefly."

    As she said that, she was gently touching the belly of Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    "I am going to exercise my profound strength into your cultivation core now¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded as she smiled, "Thank you, sister¡­"

    But all of a sudden, she had seized Juan Xian''Er by her neck and she had also stabbed Juan Xian''Er on her belly!

    This startled Ji Yuan who could not believe the sudden change that he was seeing now¡­

    Juan Xian''Er was also stunned as she was seized by the neck by Xuan Qiaoqiao''s fingers that folded like a w!

    Moreover, her cultivation core was also pierced by Xuan Qiaoqiao and she was unable to muster her profound strength!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had waited for both their profound signature to blend together before attacking Juan Xian''Er at point nk. In this way, she could avoid triggering the profound animus of Juan Xian''Er.

    "Does this move looks familiar? This is the same move that you have used on me!"

    Juan Xian''Er was still looking stunned and she was muttering weakly, "You have already regained your profound strength? How?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was now smiling wryly, "This has to do with this Ji Yuan and his maiden friends here."

    Ji Yuan panicky interrupted, "Erm, Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao. I think you ought to let Maiden Juan Xian''Er go. Didn''t she just exin to you already? She regards you as her best friend and is willing to give up her life for you. All that had happened was for a reason¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly as she interrupted, "Of course you are siding with her. After all, she had shown my body to you. And she had even heard me calling myself your harlot. But do you know how scare I am that day?"

    Juan Xian''Er gasped weakly, "Good sister, I only did this to test this Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Calm down please. We can surely talk over this."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly as she started to grope Juan Xian''Er and even opened her robe to show Ji Yuan her dedicated heaving bosoms, "Ji Yuan, do you want to see her nakedness?"

    Juan Xian''Er had turned pale immediately, "Good sister! What are you doing?!"

    Ji Yuan protested as he gulped dryly, "I don''t mind¡­ I mean I do mind¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao whispered to Juan Xian''Er, "He may not be the one that have touched me when I am unconscious but you have certainly exposed my body to him. Do you really think that I will forget about this humiliation just like this? Therefore, I am going to expose your body to him as well."

    Juan Xian''Er had turned really pale when she had heard her.

    In fact Xuan Qiaoqiao had lifted her short robe up to expose her panties to Ji Yuan, "What you did to me, I am going to do the same to you in front of this Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan stared at beautiful figure of Juan Xian''Er while he was muttering, "This¡­ isn''t a good idea, right¡­"

    Xiang Li could not resist making a giggle in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: I think this is a good idea.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er was now bleary eyed as she pleaded with a heart breaking voice to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan... help me..."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was now tearing apart Juan Xian''Er profound clothing with her profound strength as though it was just an ordinary clothing, exposing more and more of Juan Xian''Er to her.

    She exposed Juan Xian''Er boobs and tits to Ji Yuan as she said to Ji Yuan, "Do you think that her pinkish tits are beautiful?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and said awkwardly, "Beautiful, beautiful..."

    2. In this chapter, Xuan Qiaoqiao has regained the upper hand.

 Chapter 1012 Juan Xianâ€™Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (3)

    <h4>Chapter 1012 Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao (3)</h4>

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was stripping Juan Xian''Er in front of Ji Yuan.

    Her actions shocked Ji Yuan.

    Juan Xian''Er had turned really pale and she was saying tearfully to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "We have always been good sisters. Don''t do this¡­ to me¡­"

    But Xuan Qiaoqiao said coldly, "When you did the same thing to me, you didn''t think that we are good sisters? Have it ever urred to you how humiliating it is for me?"

    She was now pulling Juan Xian''Er''s panties down to her thigh and exposing her full glory to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan stared at Juan Xian''Er and her sight was too beholden for him; actually, he had not seen much of her body when they were in the bathtub together as he could not really see through the murkier water. But now, he really had a full view of the meadows of Juan Xian''Er¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slipped her fingers between the jaded legs of Juan Xian''Er and she was smiling wryly to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, do you like this view? She is such a whore below, don''t you think? And she is already wet and waiting for you."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I''m a gentleman of the sword¡­"

    Then he had turned around and started to walk off, "Although I can''t stop you for taking your sweet revenge on Maiden Juan Xian''Er but I can simply walk away¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao interrupted him coldly, "If you dare to walk off then I shall kill her."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned as he said with his back facing Xuan Qiaoqiao, "What do you actually want? Didn''t Maiden Juan Xian''Er already exin to you? She is only trying to bait me and to test me. Although this may be humiliating to you but there is no real harm that is being done to you. At most, I can agree to help the two of you to kill this Abyssal King Gong Magog. Just let her go and I can promise you this."

    Juan Xian''Er looked up and there was a mixture of emotions on her countenance; she had not expected for this Ji Yuan to be such a chivalrous hero at this moment. Not only had he turned away so that he could not look at her shame but he had also offered his free help in exchange for her freedom.

    At this moment, she was greatly flustered¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "If you don''t want to turn around and to look then I shall have to kill her. This, I can promise you."

    She hadpletely ignored Ji Yuan''s proposal!

    Ji Yuan said with a heavy sigh, "You didn''t hear what I have just said?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said coldly, "After you have turned around with your eyes open then I shall consider your proposals."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He angrily turned around to say, "Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao! We are all helping you here¡­"

    He was suddenly looking stunned; if he had not turned around then he would not have this reaction. It was because Xuan Qiaoqiao hadpletely stripped Juan Xian''Er naked and she was fingering her in front of him.

    And he could see lewd waters dripping from Juan Xian''Er''s maiden fountain as Xuan Qiaoqiao used her fingers to y below her.

    Ji Yuan gulped dryly, "This¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er was greatly flustered when Ji Yuan was suddenly looking at her but she disyed a forceful smile to say, "It is nothing shameful for my future lord to see me in this state¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "I am her future lord?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao angrily said, "He isn''t your future lord!"

    Juan Xian''Erughed weakly, "Of course he is. We even share the same bathtub together and he had even exchanged passionate kisses together. Therefore, this isn''t the first time that he has seen naked."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao angrily looked at Ji Yuan, "Is this true?"

    Ji Yuan panicky tried to exin, "Wait! That is an ident! I didn''t mean to do that¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao appeared to be hurt, "So this is really true?!"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled weakly, "Of course this is the truth. You can ask Ji Yuan how much he is enjoying in the same bathtub as me."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    She could feel her heart breaking up¡­

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Although this may be true but we never do anything inappropriate at all."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped with shock, "So this is true¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er weakly smiled, "Of course it is true. If he is not my future lord then why would I share the same bathtub as him?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was trembling as she stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Is it true that you are her future lord?"

    Ji Yuan turned to Juan Xian''Er and asked with a startled look, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er, is this true that I am your future lord?"

    Juan Xian''Er returned a flustered look, "Of course it is the truth¡­"

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially all of a sudden; he had never thought that he could gain a maiden in this ce and moreover it was a peerless maiden like Juan Xian''Er.

    Anyang warned him: My lord, be careful that she is only trying to trick Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao into releasing her and this may not be true.

    But Xiang Li insisted: Of course, this is true!

    To the surprise of Juan Xian''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly tearful as she looked at Ji Yuan. "Then how about me? After you have your fun with my body, are you just going to walk away just like this?"

    Ji Yuan looked stunned as he said panicky, "The one that touches you is Maiden Juan Xian''Er and not me. Didn''t she already exin it?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao stared hatefully at Ji Yuan, "Do you dare to say that you did not touch me at all? And you have touched at ces where you shouldn''t have!"

    Ji Yuan looked stunned: Did he?

    Xiang Li pointed out to refresh Ji Yuan''s memories: You groped her boobs and feel her in her panties.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Even Anyang was saying: That''s right. We all saw it.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had suddenly remembered he had touched Xuan Qiaoqiao to force her to scream that day but it was not because he was lecherous or have any funny designs on her¡­

    Juan Xian''Er was now staring with a bitter look at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, did you vite the Cardinal Priestess?!"

    Ji Yuan panicky tried to exin, "I did touch her but it is only because I was erm¡­ trying to make her scream for help and not because I have a fetish or something. It is part of my n to entice you out. But she just did not want to scream so I have to keep touching her."

    Although Ji Yuan sounded righteous in his exnations but these exnations sounded unrighteous in the ears of Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Juan Xian''Er was shocked, "You dare to touch the Cardinal Priestess?! Ji Yuan, I shall kill you to avenge the honor of my Cardinal Priestess! Ji Yuan, you shall pay for this¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had suddenly interrupted her coldly, "You shall not kill my lord!"

    Juan Xian''Er turned to stare with shock at her, "Your lord?!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao returned a flustered look as she shyly said, "That''s right. Ji Yuan is my lord. I have decided that I will marry him instead of the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Ji Yuan was also stunned, "I am your lord? When did I be your lord?"

    He did not ever remember doing anything to the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao in the past few days¡­

    Except of course for that one time when he was forced to grope her to make her scream.

    But of course, he did not mind taking this Xuan Qiaoqiao as his maiden.

    However, he got one problem; he was unable to stay in this Dark Abyssal Realm for too long.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said shyly to him, "Ji Yuan, know that this is your honor to have me as your consort."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly, "If I am your lord then you can let erm¡­ Maiden Juan Xian''Er go now?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled by his request, "You like her?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "This isn''t the point, right?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said slowly, "I can allow you to take her as your consort but I have to be your main consort and she has to be a concubine."

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly: Actually, I have many more consorts¡­ and you have already seen Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er already.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao bit her moist lips shyly, "Only if you are agreeable, then I shall let her go."

    Juan Xian''Er was still stunned by Xuan Qiaoqiao''s sudden announcement; she had never thought that Xuan Qiaoqiao would fall in love with Ji Yuan. She now feared that Ji Yuan may have already made Xuan Qiaoqiao into his maiden¡­

    She took a look at Xuan Qiaoqiao and indeed, she had never seen her so coyly like this before...

    Ji Yuan felt like he had no other choice, "Alright. Let her go first. We can all talk peacefully, right? Since I am your lord, you must listen to me, right?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded before she let go of Juan Xian''Er who was left coughing as she was being held tightly in her neck for quite some time.

    "If this pleases you, my lord Ji Yuan..."

    When she had said that, she was looking quite coyly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved that Xuan Qiaoqiao had finally released Juan Xian''Er.

    He said as to the two maidens, "The two of you are friends and sisters, so you ought to get get along well in the future."

    And then he asked, "So, we still go ahead with Maiden Juan Xian''Er n to assassinate King Gong Magog, right?"

    Juan Xian''Er coughed weakly before she finally found the strength to say weakly, "There is going to be a little change of n¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Like what?" He was asking with a frown.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled sweetly at Ji Yuan as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao as well, "It is no longer feasible for Ji Yuan to cuckold the Abyssal King Gong Magog any longer¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a frown, "What wrong with this n? I quite like this idea."

    Juan Xian''Er answered as she rubbed her swollen neck, "That is because right now, you are now engaged to the Cardinal Priestess. In short, the one getting cuckolded is you now and not the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He angrily raised his fists, "No one shall green me!!! Die!!!"

    But as he said so, he had suddenly noticed that Juan Xian''Er was still naked and she was standingpletely naked in front of him...

    And Juan Xian''Er had suddenly noticed that as well as she tried to cover herself with her hands. She flushed redly, "Don''t look..."

 Chapter 1013 So, What Is The Plan Now?

    ?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao appeared to have calmed down and Juan Xian''Er was also clothed now as they sat on a table facing Ji Yuan.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan had also fetched Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er to the hall too and introduced them to Juan Xian''Er.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were quite astonished to see Juan Xian''Er; not only was she astonishing beautiful but her cultivation realm was also higher than them.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao quietly looked at Ji Yuan as she urged him, "You should tell them the news."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er curiously looked at Ji Yuan and asked, "What news?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I have decided to take both Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er as my consorts."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were bbergasted; this did not seem like Ji Yuan''s way as they took a look at Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er for an answer.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao continued to look at Ji Yuan shyly and she was nodding lightly in bliss.

    Actually when Ji Yuan had gone to look for Juan Xian''Er in thest couple of days ago, she had found herself pinning for Ji Yuan. She was also quite angry that Ji Yuan had actually gone to look for Juan Xian''Er.

    When Ji Yuan had brought Juan Xian''Er back to the Delphi Pce, she did not want to hear any of the exnation from Juan Xian''Er; it was not because she was really angry with Juan Xian''Er but she was actually angry with Ji Yuan for abandoning her to look for Juan Xian''Er.

    She had thought that Ji Yuan liked Juan Xian''Er instead of her and she was jealous.

    Only when Ji Yuan had agreed to take her as a main consort and Juan Xian''Er as his little concubine, did she feel pacify and her unhappiness had vanished.

    The truth was, while being with Ji Yuan, she had fallen in love with him.

    Juan Xian''Er had noticed the subtle changes in Xuan Qiaoqiao and she noticed that she was actually being quite tolerant when ites to Ji Yuan. Or else, he would not have lived after she had regained her cultivation strength.

    At this moment, Juan Xian''Er was also looking quietly at Ji Yuan and her looks were coquettishly; she did not deny that she had also fallen in love with Ji Yuan too. It was especially so when he tried to shy away from looking at her naked body and even tried to deliver her from Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    At that moment, she was actually quite helpless as she was being seized by the neck and even her cultivation core was punctured by Xuan Qiaoqiao and she was temporary renderedpletely helpless.

    Tang Manni stared at Ji Yuan and asked, "Ji Yuan, are you being forced into this?"

    Little Jie''Er was also nodding; Ji Yuan had only juste back and he was now announcing this. This was too strange for her to digest!

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "No, I did this willingly. But¡­"

    He turned to look at Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er to say firmly, "But before I can take you as my consorts, I must first kill the Abyssal King Gong Magog first. Or else, I won''t be able to take you as my consorts."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded and she was looking affectionately at Ji Yuan, "Yes¡­ he is trying to force me into a marriage."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he raised his voice, "Therefore we need to formte a n first to kill this Abyssal King Gong Magog. But before I can do that, I need to have some information about him first."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "This Abyssal King Gong Magog is not only the king of this Nefarious Blood Kingdom but he also has 4 powerful princes to assist him. Each of the princes have their own sphere of influences and they have their own group of powerful cultivators. One of the princes is now dead and he is Prince Kombucha¡­"

    "The other 3 princes are Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal. The three of them are actually uncles to Prince Kombucha and they are also extreme powerhouses within the royal house of the Abyssal Xi Gongs."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed, "Also, there is a powerful totem abyssal immortal that has mysterious appeared to aid the Abyssal King Gong Magog. He is an extreme figure and just a month ago, he had even appeared in the Nightfall Heights and defeated several of our elders. If only our patriarch elders were around then this won''t happen."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded as he muttered, "It seems that it is not easy to infiltrate the royal pce and it is even not easy to assassinate the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "Our original n is to have me going to the royal pce as an envoy and then I would find a chance for the assassination. But this won''t be easy. But I am willing toy my life for the Cardinal Priestess."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao took a quiet look at Juan Xian''Er and she was regretting her act of stripping her earlier; if it was not for her then she would never have met Ji Yuan too¡­

    Ji Yuan said thoughtfully, "I think that totem abyssal immortal is only helping the Abyssal King Gong Magog to test the strength of the Ancient Old Ones at the Nightfall Heights. Once he knows your strength, the next thing that he has nned to do is to force the Cardinal Priestess to submit to his will."

    Juan Xian''Er answered, "I have the same conclusion as well."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned to Xuan Qiaoqiao to ask, "I remembered that you told me that there may be traitors in your ranks?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao bitterly said, "That''s right. Some of the powerful elders seem to be quite eager to push me into this marriage and dere the Abyssal King Gong Magog as the Abyssal Emperor. However, I have no proof."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "So the deadline for the final announcement is in 2 weeks?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao bitterly nodded, "That''s right. That is why Juan Xian''Er is here to negotiate with the Abyssal King while I am traveling incognito with her¡­"

    She started to sigh heavily, "But before we can join with the negotiation envoys, there are already rumors that I have agreed with the marriage. It seems that many of the Ancient Old Ones are already working with the Abyssal King Gong Magog to ensure that this marriage will be a sessful one."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he rubbed his chin to think.

    Finally, he said, "Maybe we should leave Maiden Juan Xian''Er to dy the talks or to fish for more information with the negotiation team. As for the Cardinal Priestess, maybe I should apany her back to the Nightfall Heights to have a look first. We still got 2 weeks right?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled, "You are not going to assassinate the Abyssal King Gong Magog anymore?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "It isn''t that. I think we should weed out all the secret spies from the Nightfall Heights first, am I right?"

    He turned to look at Juan Xian''Er, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er, do you think that you are able to dy the final announcement for 2 weeks?"

    Juan Xian''Er slowly nodded, "Yes, I can. As long as the Cardinal Priestess or the elders do not sign the agreement, I can still dy it."

    Ji Yuan turned to smile at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "We naturally have to confront your elders first. If they sign this agreement, we are both screwed. Not only will you be forced to marry this Abyssal King Gong Magog, I would also be cuckolded. This won''t do at all."

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao noticed that Ji Yuan was smiling at her, she coyly smiled at him. "I will listen to my future lord Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan had only one word to describe her coyly smile at this moment; she was really too beautiful.

 Chapter 1014 This Is My Plan!

    ?

    Ji Yuan grinned to the 4 maidens, "So what do you think of my n?"

    Tang Manni quietly looked at Ji Yuan, "Is it going to be dangerous? How are you going to weed out the spies for the Cardinal Priestess? Do you have a n?"

    Juan Xian''Er was also curiously looking at Ji Yuan, "Yeah. What''s your n? How do you know which elders are actually spies?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had also cast Ji Yuan a curious look and she was pondering the same.

    Little Jie''Er was quiet; she had actually wanted to tell Ji Yuan that she would be willing to apany him to the Nightfall Heights when Tang Manni had asked ahead of her.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "isn''t it easy to tell? Those that agree to marry the Cardinal Priestess off to the Abyssal King are the spies."

    Xiang Li immediately apuded Ji Yuan inside his soul sea: My Big Brother is really a genius for knowing about this!

    Fairy Anyang: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er: ¡­

    When Ji Yuan saw their stupor looks, he asked curiously. "What is wrong? Did my genius just stunned all of you?"

    Juan Xian''Er said weakly, "It isn''t as easy to catch the spies as you think or we would have figured out. Those that support marrying off the Cardinal Priestess to the Abyssal King may not be the real spies. They may just weight their options to serve themselves."

    Ji Yuan said unhappily, "It doesn''t matter to me. It either they are for the Cardinal Priestess or against the Cardinal Priestess."

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were all taken aback by Ji Yuan''s logic.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded slowly and her beautiful alluring eyes were bleary, "If I don''t obey their wishes then they would strip my title from me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Then why don''t you give up your title?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled bitterly, "It is easy for you to say so. I will not only lose all my privileges but I will be confined as well."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed, "My sister is right. She had once threatened to give up her title to avoid marrying the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded before she continued, "Also, if I don''t agree to this marriage then the Abyssal King Gong Magog will attack the Nightfall Heights."

    Ji Yuan asked, "How do you know that there is really a spy in the Nightfall Heights?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said with a heavy sigh, "Not many people knows that I have the Nine Yin Divine Body but somehow the Abyssal King Gong Magog is able to know about this. That is why we know that there is a spy among us."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That spy must be someone that is quite close to you in order to know your secret."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan said, "I have decided to go to the Nightfall Heights now to help you to find out who the spy is. This is important."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao curiously asked, "Why is it so?"

    Ji Yuan said matter of fact, "If there is a spy on your side, then won''t all your negotiable cards be known in advance by the Abyssal King Gong Magog? Then what is the point of any negotiations?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was taken aback; Ji Yuan was right on this.

    Juan Xian''Er was forced to agree as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "He is right. Our first round of negotiation is aplete failure. It is as though the Abyssal King Gong Magog knows of our cards in advance and he even knows that we are not united in our oppositions."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ji Yuan with flustered looks, "But I can''t bring a celestial back with me. Also, I can''t tell anyone yet that I¡­ would like Ji Yuan to be my lord¡­ this will also be quite scandalous."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Who says you will be bringing back your lord back with you? I am nothing but your ve. Is there a rule that you can''t bring a ve to the Nightfall Heights?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao pondered for a while before she giggled softly, "No. There is no such rule. I have actually never brought back such a beautiful male ve back before."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    You mean you''ve brought back less beautiful male ves back, do you?

    But he quickly said, "Then this settles it. I shall go back with you to the Nightfall Heights and we start from there. If I can''t find the spy within 2 weeks then I shall confront this Abyssal King Gong Magog for you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked mncholy at Ji Yuan but she could not muster any words and she could only silently say thank you to Ji Yuan in her heart.

    Juan Xian''Er pondered to think for a while before she asked, "I guess that I have no other choice but to stay in this city for the time being."

    Ji Yuan was regretful that he had to abandon Juan Xian''Er in this city that were full of abyssals. "Be careful. We shall soon be back."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "Between the Cardinal Priestess and I, we have a transmission stone that we can use to ry information. I shall keep you abreast on what is going on while you are at the Nightfall Heights."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Alright. Then this shall be our n."

    Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao were both sighing quietly; it was because they felt that Ji Yuan was not going to aplish anything by going to the Nightfall Heights. But when they saw how determined Ji Yuan was, they reluctantly agreed to test out Ji Yuan''s n.

    After Ji Yuan had discussed his ns with the maidens and he was preparing to take a break, Xuan Qiaoqiao had suddenly called upon Juan Xian''Er to stay for a while.

    As Ji Yuan left with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er to their room, he saw that Xuan Qiaoqiao was holding hands with Juan Xian''Er.

    As he walked off, he could hear Xuan Qiaoqiao telling Juan Xian''Er she was sorry and the two maidens began to embrace together.

    Ji Yuan nodded approvingly: It is good that they are friends again.

    When Ji Yuan was at the corridor, Little Jie''Er giggled to him. "Yuan Beluga, so how did you manage to capture such a beautiful maiden as Maden Juan Xian''Er?"

    Tang Manni was also curious, "Isn''t she the one that has set you up?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is because I am a forgiving person. Haha¡­"

    Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er: ¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled to them, "Let leave them alone for a little while. But do you think that the two of you should be alone with me for a little while too?"

    When he had said that, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were both flushing shyly.

 Chapter 1015 The Confessions of the Two Sisters

    <h4>Chapter 1015 The Confessions of the Two Sisters</h4>

    When Ji Yuan had left with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, it was only Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er that were left now in the room.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao held onto Juan Xian''Er tightly and her voice had be a whimper, "Good sister, I''m truly sorry¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er tightly held onto Xuan Qiaoqiao as well and she gently patted her, "You have¡­ finally called me your sister again. So, you are not upset with me anymore?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly before shooting her a question instead, "Are you upset with me for stripping you in front of Ji Yuan?"

    Juan Xian''Erughed softly, "This is only fair y that you have done the same with me."

    Then she smiled wryly, "What do you think of Ji Yuan?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly flushing and stammering, "He¡­he¡­ is quite outstanding¡­ except that¡­ he is a little too lecherous¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er frowned, "He really did something funny to you¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao quickly lied, "No, he did not. He is quite a gentleman. He did not touch me while I was dead and he had left quickly to look for you outside."

    This was actually a little lie. While it was true that Ji Yuan did not outrage her modesty here but he did outrage her outrage under the nket in the outside world.

    Juan Xian''Er looked a little relieved when she had heard that.

    Then she slowly asked, "You seem to have fallen in love with him. Howe?"

    She was really curious because if it were some other men or abyssals, they would already been killed by the Cardinal Priestess and not even their corpses would remain. It did not matter if they touch the Cardinal Priestess or not, but the fact that they had seen the nakedness of the Cardinal Priestess was already a punishable death offense.

    But the Cardinal Priestess had instead spared Ji Yuan and she had even dered that he would be her future lord.

    Juan Xian''Er had never nned the oue to be in this way.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao let go off Juan Xian''Er and she was blushing shyly, "Don''t you think that he is really such a beautiful man?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled weakly, "I don''t disagree with that."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly, "Also, he is such a talented cultivator at only 500 years old."

    This time round Juan Xian''Er was stunned, "Really?! But his cultivation base is so weak¡­"

    She had actually secretly examined Ji Yuan''s cultivation profound aura with her divine sense and like Xuan Qiaoqiao, she was able to tell that Ji Yuan was stronger in his energy aspects than anything else.

    Then she was gasping, "If so, then he must be a monstrous genius to have reached the False Immortal level at this young age¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "He is indeed a monstrous genius!"

    Juan Xian''Er disyed a faint frown, "Don''t tell me that this is the reason why you like him?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "Naturally he has to be strong in order to qualify for my love in the first ce, am I right? And he seems to have some guts too."

    Juan Xian''Er slowly nodded, "I don''t disagree with that too. He does have some guts."

    Then she smiled, "Indeed he needs to have some qualities that can attract the attention of my good sister here, especially if she is also the Cardinal Priestess of our race."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao took a yful look at Juan Xian''Er, "Enough of myself. How about you? You do like him too or else you won''t agree to be his little concubine? Consider your background, he may be beneath you."

    Juan Xian''Er frowned, "I hope that you will take back this little concubine thing. I don''t intend to be his little concubine but his main consort!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly, "I don''t want to! This is your just punishment!"

    Then she winked at her, "Quick! Tell me!"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled weakly, "Actually before I''ve tricked him to your room, I already have some interest in him."

    "Oh?" Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Juan Xian''Er curiously.

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "That day when I had met him in the Bloody Forest, I was already quite impressed by him when he had killed the Abyssal Prince Gong Kombucha. That is why I had thought of using him as a bait to drawn out the Abyssal King Gong Magog then we can increase our chances of assassinating him¡­"

    Then she began to sigh even more heavier, "I was actually at a loss on how to approach him so I had spent several days to tail him. I had never thought that he would actually have the guts to go to the Nefarious Blood City. That was when I had suddenly made a makeshift n to¡­"

    She looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao and said weakly, "To attack you and to test what he is really like. It is because our n is a most dangerous one and this entire kingdom is dominated by the mainstream abyssals. I can easily disguise him as a ve or as one of our kind given the likeness of his physique to us¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded¡­

    Juan Xian''Er sighed, "I had also purposely revealed your Nine Yin Divine Body to him just to see if he could suppress his innermost desires. In fact, I had given him a push in that direction by tempting him as well¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao interrupted with a faint smile, "So if he has failed in the temptation, then you would kill him immediately?"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded firmly, "That''s right. Whether I am impressed by him is another thing but if he dares to really touch my good sister then he is going to be a dead meat."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chucked softly, "Luckily, he has not and luckily for me too. But how did youe to like him?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled bitterly, "It is only when the two of you are gone then I had realized that I had regretted my actions and wished that I had been frank to him. In short, I was thinking of him more than you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao purposely disyed an angry look, "You!"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled nonchntly, "You have to agree that he is really a beautiful man. Unlike someone here, I am more superficient and I only look at how beautiful he is. Heehee."

    She had simplyughed at Xuan Qiaoqiao''s angry look; she knows that Xuan Qiaoqiao was only teasing her. They had indeed known each other for a long time. In fact, when Xuan Qiaoqiao was stripping her in front of Ji Yuan, she already knows that Xuan Qiaoqiao was angry about something else.

    So she was not really angry with her for stripping her.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was alreadyughing sweetly when she had heard Juan Xian''Er.

    "But howe you say that he is a lecherous cultivator if he did not touch you?" Juan Xian''Er asked Xuan Qiaoqiao curiously.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly, "You really want to know? Come follow me and you will know!"

    2. Just in case anyone is wondering, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er are not real sisters but good friends.

 Chapter 1016 Proof that JY is a lecherous cultivator

    <h4>Chapter 1016 Proof that JY is a lecherous cultivator</h4>

    Soon, Xuan Qiaoqiao had taken Juan Xian''Er to her room and she was smiling wryly.

    When Juan Xian''Er saw her smiling look, she asked weakly. "My good sister, why are you smiling?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly, "Naturally the reason why I''ve brought you here is for you to have a look at how lecherous this Ji Yuan is. Didn''t you want to know why I have called him a lecherous man just now?"

    Juan Xian''Er weakly said as she looked around the room but after a brief moment, she began to understand.

    "You want to eavesdrop what they are doing next room?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled, "And don''t you want to find out more about this Ji Yuan too?"

    She giggled softly, "Come and follow my profound signature. And you will find out something really interesting."

    Although the expressions on Juan Xian''Er looked reluctant but eventually she gave a slight nod.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao quickly told her the methods on how to bypass the defensive arrays in this ce and then she said confidently to her, "As long as we bend our divine sense perfectly into the surrounding arrays, there is no way that they would be able to know that we are listening to them. Moreover, we are just listening and did not probe into their room. So it is safe enough."

    When Juan Xian''Er had heard Xuan Qiaoqiao, she could not resist ament. "You should not be a Cardinal Priestess. You should try to be a top level spy¡­"

    Actually trying to bend one''s divine sense perfectly into the arrays is not as easy it sounds; it is because the arrays are constantly moving and it gets increasingplex especially when there are multiple arrays that are in ce.

    But Xuan Qiaoqiao had been ying with arrays since she was young and moreover, she is now a high level cultivator now.

    That was why she had asked Juan Xian''Er to follow her profound signature instead and she would help her to harmonize her profound divine sense.

    Although Juan Xian''Er was new to this scrying attempt but to a high level cultivator like her, this was not a problem even without the aid of Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Soon the two of them were ''listening'' to the happenings that were in the next room.

    Sure enough, they could hear Ji Yuan jovialughter as he said, "My Manni and Little Jie''Er, do you know how much I''ve missed the two of you in the past few days?"

    Tang Manni hummed, "After having your fun with the two of us, you have just run off just like this. How can we be pleased? Moreover you have brought back another beautiful maiden back with you. I didn''t know that you are such a romantic man. When I was with you, you just keep rejecting my advances. Am I not beautiful at all?"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Of course my Manni is beautiful! In fact, you are more beautiful than them!"

    "What about me then, Yuan Beluga?" Little Jie''Er sniffed.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "My Little Jie''Er is naturally also prettier than them too!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er who were eavesdropping: ¡­

    "Then why?" Tang Manni asked woefully. "Or have you forgotten that we can''t bring them along with you?"

    Ji Yuan was really caught in a dilemma to answer this; the Dark Abyssal Realm is just an unlikeable ce and the two maidens Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er are like a beautiful light that enticed his heart. Moreover, they are really peerless in their alluring beauties.

    He did not actually want to take them as his consorts but he could see how angry Xuan Qiaoqiao was earlier and he had thought that she would harm Juan Xian''Er. That was why he had agreed to take them as his consorts to prevent Xuan Qiaoqiao from killing Juan Xian''Er.

    But it was already toote to say no now.

    Ji Yuan was not sure if he could defeat two False Immortal maidens at the same time.

    His thoughts were quickly distracted by Little Jie''Er who said to him, "And the 100 plus people in this ce too. When you return to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they would be expulsed from this ce too as theyck a profound treasure such as our red rings to anchor them when you made your spatial shift."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Let''s worry about thatter. Haha¡­"

    Then he was grinning, "But first, we got to do something important."

    Little Jie''Er asked curiously, "What is it?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Naturally it is to finish our unfinished business thest time¡­"

    When he had said that, he was putting his hands on the soft butt of Little Jie''Er and he was pping her butt.

    Smack! Smack!

    "Yuan Beluga, you¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not wait for her to protest and he had also grabbed Tang Manni too as he pushed them onto the ground as he transformed into a beast of a man to strip their clothes off from them.

    There were soft screams and moans from Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as Ji Yuan ravaged through them and eagerly touched them.

    Ji Yuan could not wait for a moment less now; he had been suppressing his desires ever since he had seen Juan Xian''Er naked in front of him.

    It was time for him to vent his beastly desires now, especially when he had thepany of two such astonishing maidens in front of him.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er naturally did not mind. In fact, they weed Ji Yuan''s beastly attacks.

    Ji Yuan chuckled to them as he kissed them passionately all over their bodies and he was also fingering them, "Manni and Little Jie''Er, you have be more beautiful than ever¡­"

    "You and your ttering¡­" Tang Manni moaned softly.

    Little Jie''Er was screaming softly and could not answer at this moment because Ji Yuan was doing something funny to her and it could only be left for the imaginations.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I love the two of you when you are not wearing anything in front of me¡­"

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, their arousing ys were heard clearly by Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled shyly to Juan Xian''Er, "Now, do you know why I have called him a lecherous cultivator?"

    When Juan Xian''Er had heard them, she said with a flushed voice to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "You''re right. He is indeed a lecherous cultivator¡­"

    Then she had stopped because she had noticed that Xuan Qiaoqiao was looking so coyly and red with flushes. In fact, she was gasping silently and she seemed to be aroused...

 Chapter 1017 Leaving the Royal City

    <h4>Chapter 1017 Leaving the Royal City</h4>

    ?

    The next day, Ji Yuan had exited the pocket dimensional world of the Great Oracle Gate along with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    As for Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, they remained inside the Great Oracle Gate.

    Once again, Ji Yuan had found himself back to the room where he had left. And with me were Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    Ji Yuan said to them with a weak smile, "I ought to return to look for Gong Muk now. It had been several days now and my big friend Gong Muk must be quite anxious by now. Once I''ve settled things with him, I shall return here to look for the two of you. Then we shall go to the Nightfall Heights together."

    When he had said that, he had immediately turned around to leave.

    "Wait Ji Yuan," Juan Xian''Er called out with him with a wry smile.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Juan Xian''Er smiled faintly, "I won''t be here when you are back. So let''s say our farewell first."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So soon?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled as she looked at Ji Yuan before looking at Xuan Qiaoqiao who remained expressionless.

    "We are parting sooner orter anyway. What is the difference between now or a momentter?"

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "Maiden Juan Xian''Er, I hope to see you soon then."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Same here. While you are with the Cardinal Priestess, I hope that you are able to keep your hands off her. Whether she can be your consort or not in the future, depends on your performances, am I right to say so?"

    Ji Yuan patted his chest firmly and he solemnly said, "This is natural! As a gentleman of the sword, I naturally won''t do anything out of the ce to her¡­"

    When he had dered so, Xuan Qiaoqiao took a subtle disappointment look at Ji Yuan.

    Juan Xian''Er nodded as she smiled, "Then I can safety leave my hands off the Cardinal Priestess to you."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Don''t worry. I still don''t want to die yet. Hahaha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled too, "I have heard from my good sister that you are quite talented at 500 years old and you are even a Sword Deity. Ji Yuan, you are being too humble."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly but did not say anything and he quickly exited the room.

    Juan Xian''Er heaved a soft sigh as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Well, my good sister. I hope that he takes my warning at heart. But I think that he won''t have the guts as what we have heardst night."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled, "So what if he has the guts?"

    Juan Xian''Er appeared to be startled, "Good sister, you are not joking?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiaoughed softly, "I am just saying only. Of course, I am joking¡­"

    Then she quickly sighed, "Don''t worry, my good sister. I know how to protect myself. On the other hand, you have to be careful when you are in the royal pce. I am more anxious about you."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "You don''t have to worry about me¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao interrupted her with a heavy sigh, "Do you think that a great beauty like yourself will not be noticed by these beastly abyssals?"

    Juan Xian''Er heaved a soft sigh, "I am more worried about the spy that is giving them our trump cards."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "Hopefully Ji Yuan will be able to find out who the spy is soon."

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had expected Gong Muk to be pacing up and down anxiously as he awaited his return.

    But to his surprise, Gong Muk was gobbling a hearty meal of disgusting insects when he had knocked on his room.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly when he saw what Gong Muk was eating.

    "s! Master! You are finally back!" Gong Muk was delighted when he saw Ji Yuan. "Where have you been for the past few days? I keep knocking on your door but no one answers it."

    Ji Yuan lied, "I am deep in meditation. That''s why I didn''t answer the door."

    Gong Muk nodded, "That is what I have thought so too. That is why I have waited for master here. So, what the next ns now?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he dumped arge amount of blood crystals on the table next to the disgusting insects, "This is your reward as promised. I shall be leaving this city soon."

    Gong Muk looked very surprised, "So fast? But we have only just arrived in the royal city."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You can continue to stay in this city. After all, you are a rich abyssal now."

    Gong Muk was also grinning, "That''s right. And I can now eat whatever I like too."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly, "Right. Right¡­"

    Gong Muk asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Master, so where are you going?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am afraid that this is my personal secret. Haha¡­"

    Gong Muk asked again, "Master, do you need my help to leave the city?"

    Ji Yuan considered for a moment, "Yeah. This would be good. I have apanion with me too."

    Gong Muk looked surprised, "You have apanion with you? Another abyssal?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Haha. You shall know very soon¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked too human and she may be stopped at the gates. Although she could easily disyed her wings to indicate that she is an Ancient Old One but she would also attract plenty of attention. And they may even be followed.

    So it was better for them to be ''ves'' of Gong Muk instead.

    Ji Yuan said to Gong Muk, "Alright then. Wait here for me while I look for mypanion to join you here."

    With that, he had turned back to look for Xuan Qiaoqiao and told her how they should leave the city.

    By now, Juan Xian''Er had already left the room.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao dressed herself in dark cloak and hood that was left behind by Juan Xian''Er and said to Ji Yuan, "Let''s go then."

    She did not want this Gong Muk or anyone to look at her face.

    Ji Yuan nodded as they left the room together to look for Gong Muk.

    When they returned to look for Gong Muk, he was quite surprised to see a hooded maiden that was with Ji Yuan but he could not see her face. But he did not ask for her identity or asked to see her face.

    After all, he was just a paid servant to Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan had made him very wealthy.

    When they reached the city gates, most of the abyssal guards did not bother to check Ji Yuan or the dark hooded maiden.

    It was because by now, Gong Muk was dressed in a fine dressing that was brought by his great wealth and morevoer, he was also a royal abyssal.

    When he shed his identical papers with the royal name of Gong, he was quickly allowed to pass with his ves.

    Gong Muk was by no means a close rtive of the current Gong Royalty and he was far from the lineage. But being a royal abyssal with the royal name of Gong had plenty of conveniences in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

 Chapter 1018 JY, is the Cardinal Priestess beautiful or not?

    <h4>Chapter 1018 JY, is the Cardinal Priestess beautiful or not?</h4>

    When Gong Muk had taken Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao out of the royal city, he began to turn back; it was because he had missed the great food that was in the royal city and moreover, he was extremely wealthy now.

    He had no idea that the maiden that he was escorting out of the royal city was actually the Cardinal Priestess.

    Along the way, he kept sighing to Ji Yuan. "Are you sure that you don''t want to stay in the royal city until you see what the Cardinal Priestess is really like? I tell you, the rumors are true. She is really a great beauty!"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "No thanks. I am not interested. Moreover, I have things to do elsewhere too."

    Gong Muk sighed heavily, "Master Ji Yuan, I think that you must still be thinking that the Cardinal Priestess must be too ugly for your liking. I tell you, this isn''t true¡­ Once you have seen her, you will definitely change your mind about her!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: !!!

    I am ugly?!

    Ji Yuan had turned ashen immediately and he could sense a subtle killing intent from Xuan Qiaoqiao that was directed at him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked Ji Yuan coldly, "Ji Yuan, did you say that the Cardinal Priestess is too ugly for your liking?"

    Ji Yuan weakly replied, "No¡­"

    But Gong Muk drowned out his feeble protest and sighed heavily, "Of course Master Ji Yuan did! That is why I am trying to convince him otherwise!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: !!!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: !!!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: !!!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are you a pig in my team?

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Gong Muk, we are safe enough now. You should return back to the royal city now. If we have the chance, maybe we will meet again. Farewell."

    Gong Muk looked a little disappointed that Ji Yuan was asking him to go back now especially when he was trying to convince him that of the great beauty of the Cardinal Priestess.

    Unlike most of the abyssals, Gong Muk did not feel any hostilities toward Ji Yuan. In fact, he felt that Ji Yuan was the only person that did not bully him and he was even his benefactor by giving him so many blood crystals.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao continued to ask Ji Yuan coldly, "Ji Yuan, is the Cardinal Priestess ugly or beautiful?"

    Ji Yuan turned to her to reply weakly, "Of course the Cardinal Priestess is beautiful. No doubt about that. Haha¡­"

    When Gong Muk had heard Ji Yuan, he wasughing jovially too. "Of course, the Cardinal Priestess is really beautiful. She is the most peerless maiden in the entirend¡­"

    He had turned to the hooded Xuan Qiaoqiao to grin broadly, "Normally a maiden won''t agree that another maiden is more beautiful than herself. Maiden, you have a magnanimous heart! Are you Master Ji Yuan''s maiden? He must be so lucky to have you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly when she had received praises from Gong Muk, "Yes, he is my lord."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Gong Muk, it is time for you to go."

    Gong Muk sighed heavily as he reluctantly left, "Farewell Master Ji Yuan and this magnanimous maiden¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed with relief when Gong Muk had finally left them at the outskirt of a red forest.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly to Ji Yuan, "So ugly is your first impression of me?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly protested, "I didn''t say that. Hahaha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao pondered for a while before she giggled again, "So between Juan Xian''Er, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and me, which one of us is the most beautiful?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why did she have to ask this question all of a sudden?!

    If he answered wrongly then he would surely die a most horrible death.

    He did not want to die so young.

    There was only one right answer for this question.

    Ji Yuan chuckled with sureness, "Of course it is my Xuan Qiaoqiao! She is the most beautiful maiden of them all. In the night sky where there are thousands of stars, she is like the only star that can catch my eyes because she is the most dazzling star."

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao had heard Ji Yuan, she was secretly blushing behind her hood and she was overwhelmed by Ji Yuan''s praises for her.

    "s, Ji Yuan¡­ I believe you now¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was secretly heaving soft sighs of relief.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan, he was quite an expert in bluffing the maidens who seemed to like to ask this awkward question from him all the time.

    Anyang warned him: Be careful my lord. One day, your bluffs will be exposed.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: What if two most beautiful maidens in your heart ask the same question at the same time? What would you say to them?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He smiled bitterly: Do you think that I will give them a chance to ask me this question at the same time?

    Anyang chuckled: It isn''t up to you. It is up to them to ask this question from you out of the blue.

    Ji Yuan weaklyughed: Never! So far, I am pretty lucky. Hahaha¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao curiously asked Ji Yuan, "What are you thinking? You seem to be lost in thoughts?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to tell Xuan Qiaoqiao that he had two spirit fairies in his soul sea. At least not yet.

    But luckily for him, he spotted eight abyssalsing in their direction and they were all fierce looking.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had also seen them and she was frowning, "They seem to being for us¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "They must have thought that we are some masterless ves¡­"

    "No, I don''t think so." Xuan Qiaoqiao had suddenly said, "I recognize one of the abyssals. He is at the gate just now too. I think they had spotted Gong Muk going back and must be wondering where his ves are. And that is why they havee to check us out."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "These abyssals all look alike to me¡­"

    But he quickly said, "Come, let''s go into the forest first and we try to see what they want."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded, "Good idea."

    With that, the two of them had ran into the red forest.

 Chapter 1019 An Unexpected Encounter

    <h4>Chapter 1019 An Unexpected Encounter</h4>

    The 8 abyssals were angrily searching the red forest for the sight of Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao; they could not understand how they could have lost sight of two puny non-abyssals.

    All of them were above the 5th cultivation realm and 2 of them were even at the 6th cultivation realm.

    These two non-abyssals were only at the second cultivation realm and they could not possibly have escaped from their sharp divine sense!

    This was just not possible at all!

    Because they could not find the two non-abyssals, they were now furious to have lost sight of two ves that they could capture to sell for a small profit in the ve market.

    They were particrly interested in the hooded maiden and they saw that she had a nice figure.

    If she was not a beautiful ve then why was she hooded in the first ce?

    Ji Yuan grinned to Xuan Qiaoqiao quietly; it was as though he was saying to her that this was now the time for him to show his heroic side and it was also the time to interrogate them.

    He was quite rmed that he could see the cultivation realm of the 2 sixth realm abyssals after Xuan Qiaoqiao had taught him how just now.

    She had said to him, "You are now a False Immortal like me too. Therefore, there won''t be a cultivator that could hide their cultivation realm from you unless they are a True Divinity cultivator."

    Ji Yuan had tried to correct her, "I am an Empyrean level cultivator now."

    He preferred to use his own created cultivation title.

    However Xuan Qiaoqiao seemed to ignore his feeble protest and she had said to him, "Now, False Immortal Ji Yuan, are you able to see their cultivation realm with your divine sense now?"

    Ji Yuan was naturally able to see their cultivation realm now with the cultivation instruction from Xuan Qiaoqiao; it was actually not that difficult.

    It was no wonder why Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were able to see through his cultivation realm.

    Back to the current moment, just when Ji Yuan was about to show off his heroic skills in front of the Cardinal Priestess, Xuan Qiaoqiao had already shed in the midst of the 8 abyssals!

    The 8 abyssals were extremely startled when a hooded maiden had suddenly appeared in their midst and they were even more startled that this seemed to be the same hooded maiden that they were trying to pursue.

    But before they could even react, Xuan Qiaoqiao had released her terrifying False Immortal profound oppression upon all of them!

    The 8 abyssals had turned paled immediately as they stammered in front of this hooded maiden that appeared like a dwarf in their midst.

    "Eighth¡­ cultivation¡­ realm¡­"

    It was as though time had been frozen in ce for them as they tried to muster all their profound strength to escape from her profound oppression.

    Unfortunately for them, they were too low level and their movements were as slow as snails under her profound oppression.

    And from the profound aura of Xuan Qiaoqiao, a golden maiden with six arms wielding six golden swords were formed and in the next instant, all 8 abyssals were sliced to pieces like tofu in front of her!

    This was a total massacre even though all 8 abyssals had extreme tough body but under the golden light of the golden swords of Xuan Qiaoqiao''s golden maiden animus, they were unable to even flee away from her.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao''s golden maiden animus was actually called the Cardinal Goddess spirit animus.

    Ji Yuan gulped at how formidable Xuan Qiaoqiao truly was at this moment.

    It was no wonder why Juan Xian''Er had warned him that should Xuan Qiaoqiao regains her profound strength, she could easily kill him.

    He did not believe it though but right now, he was forced to believe it.

    His own spirit animus could only lend him more profound power as he is not a true spirit cultivator. But then, most celestial cultivators even if they are spirit cultivators are like Ji Yuan as well.

    He had remembered his fight with the Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong and his Dark Asura animus was even able to throw dark talismans against him.

    Ji Yuan had also recalled that Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er had told him that Xuan Qiaoqiao is a True Spiritas.

    If so, then her control of the spirit animus for the Spiritas Race is just one notch higher than the other races.

    So it is not surprising that she could shape her spirit animus to materialize into lethal physical forms to aid her during a fight.

    Ji Yuan hated to fight against cultivators with such spirit animus and inertia barriers because he had to first disable their formidable defenses first while he would be vulnerable against their attacks.

    At this moment, Xuan Qiaoqiao was giggling in his direction and she was pulled back her hood to wink at him. "Ji Yuan, what do you think of my spirit animus and my fighting skills?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin as he slowly said, "Not bad at all. But you need to improve a little more. There are at least 9 possible vulnerability points that your enemy may exploit in order to hurt you. But it is pretty alright, they are just lowly abyssals so they won''t be able to see through your weakness."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled, "At least 9 vulnerability points?"

    Ji Yuan was actually just bullshitting her and he was just trying to undermine her confidence in front of him.

    Ji Yuan pointed out, "Remember that I am a Sword Deity. So I know these types of things better than you do."

    Then he tried to bullshit further, "It seems to me that you have not been adventuring a lot and needs plenty of improvements."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded, "It is really hard for a Cardinal Priestess like me to go out. I have actually sneaked out during this time."

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved that he had struck a lucky guess.

    So he grinned, "Don''t worry. With me around, you shall surely improve."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded eagerly, "When free, can you please give me some instructions to improve myself?"

    He forced himself to smile like an awesome celestial teacher, "Why not if you are willing to learn a trick or two from me?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked really grateful as she smiled, "I thank Sword Deity Ji Yuan in advance first!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and he was thinking: We can start by teaching you how to y the flute in the bedroom first¡­

    All of a sudden both Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao were alerted to a subtle presence in the red forest; this presence was extremely subtle but it was not difficult for these two super cultivators to sense it.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped softly as she focused her Cardinal Goddess Animus into the direction of the intrusion and immediately six golden swords had shed like a sudden lightning bolt into that direction!

    The trees ahead of them were all blow up by the powerful profound power of the six golden swords but the six golden swords were all scattered in all directions and were dissipated by a even more powerful profound power.

    By destroying the golden swords of Xuan Qiaoqiao''s Cardinal Goddess Animus, she had suffered a minor bacsh and she had suddenly coughed out golden blood!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was rmed that there was actually such a formidable opponent in this ce!

    Even Ji Yuan was rmed as he disyed his emperor-step divine sword.

    But when the smoke and debris had cleared to reveal a shadowy slim figure in front, he was stunned again.

    It was because it had revealed a peerless maiden with a scabbard in front of her and she was none other than Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao!

    Ji Yuan gasped, "Ding Xiaoxiao?!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao saw his startled look, "You know her?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was also looking quite bewildered to see Ji Yuan in the same ce as well.

    But she was soon smiling wryly, "I did say that the next time we meet, we will be enemies. Am I right?"

 Chapter 1020 They are my Brothers...

    <h4>Chapter 1020 They are my Brothers...</h4>

    Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling wryly when she saw Ji Yuan in this ce, "I did say that the next time we meet, we will be enemies. Am I right?"

    Then she took a look at the beautiful maiden that was next to him, "Mm, False 8th cultivation realm. Impressive but it is still not enough."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    She quickly turned to whisper to Ji Yuan, "You know her? Is she a friend or a foe? I can''t read her cultivation realm and only her current cultivation realm. Although she seems to be a fifth cultivation realm cultivator but I am sure that she isn''t. It is because it is impossible for a mere fifth cultivation cultivator to destroy my spirit golden swords. Also, she is a Deste Race."

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked up to Xuan Qiaoqiao to appraise carefully; indeed, she had carefully disguised her cultivation realm to the fifth cultivation realm but she had disyed her profound strength to the seventh cultivation realm earlier.

    Also, she had carefully disguised the colors of her eyes and even her profound animus too. But still, this maiden that was next to Ji Yuan was able to see through her disguise. This was truly impressive.

    Ji Yuan did not know how to answer Xuan Qiaoqiao because he was unsure if he could consider Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily as his friend. But if he said she was a foe then Ding Xiaoxiao may really treat him like a foe and he would be screwed today.

    It was really bad luck for him to have meet Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily in this ce today!

    Before Ji Yuan could answer Xuan Qiaoqiao, Ding Xiaoxiao had seized the initiative to say, "I am only teasing you. We will only be enemies once the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth are over¡­"

    She paused briefly to say, "But for now, I hope that you can keep my true identity a secret. It is because I have some friends and you know them as well."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You actually have friends and I know them too?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao put her finger to her lips as she looked at Ji Yuan, "You should know the consequences of exposing me in front of your friends, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    I don''t have any friends in this ce¡­

    All of a sudden, three cultivators had suddenly appeared from within the forest and they looked startled at the surrounding destruction.

    And they were further shocked to see the dead bodies of 8 gigantic abyssals too.

    But they were even more shocked to see Ji Yuan in this ce.

    "It is really Brother Ji Yuan!"

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "Ji Yuan, you didn''t die yet?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was also quite shocked to see them because they were really all his friends and they were Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin.

    But he was also looking a little disappointed; it was because he had thought they were some maiden friends of hers and he was not expecting to find his brotherly friends in this ce.

    He frowned, "What are the three of you doing in this dangerous ce?"

    Li Ye exined, "We have thought that this trial may be an easy one as there are more than 1000 celestials that have touched the ck stele. But we have not expected this ce to be so dangerous and that is why we are hiding in the forest here."

    He did not say that the three of them had wanted to impress Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao of their courage that they had chosen to enter this portal.

    Unknown to them, while they were here, Ding Xiaoxiao had been secretly clearing all the dangers for them or else they would have already been hunted down by the abyssals given that this forest was quite near to the royal city.

    It was also on this day that Ding Xiaoxiao had detected movements in the forest and she had secretlye to investigate.

    Ji Yuan thought weakly: All these celestials just touch the ck stele but did not really enter into the portal. You guys are too young, too simple...

    Shen Qin smiled at Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden Xiao, thank goodness that you are alright! We have been looking everything for you. Now, don''t go around on your own next time or we can''t protect you!"

    When Ji Yuan had heard Shen Qin, he was looking stunned and he was thinking: Protect her? The three of you? It is the opposite, am I right to say so?

    And then he was frowning again.

    He had just remembered that Ding Xiaoxiao had just warned him not to expose her. So that was the reason. But why?

    He stared at Li Ye, Shen Qin and Guo Taiming for a while.

    She should not have fallen in love with Guo Taiming because he was too fat and had a pot belly¡­

    Not Li Ye either. His beard is too ugly¡­

    Maybe she likes Shen Qin? He is a young master of a powerful unorthodox celestial sect and he is also quite handsome. Maybe it is him¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan was randomly thinking which of the three men that Ding Xiaoxiao was fancying, Guo Taiming was tenderly saying to Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden Xiao, are you alright? Did the scene scare you? This Ji Yuan is our brother here. Luckily, he is on our side. So you don''t have to worry anymore."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled brightly at him, "Thank you, Brother Guo. I have indeed got a big fright but I have since calmed down now."

    Guo Taiming was delighted when he had heard it.

    Shen Qin was also asking Ding Xiaoxiao the same thing, "Maiden Xiao, I am d that you are alright¡­"

    But Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled and nodded.

    Ji Yuan however was gasping to himself when he saw that: Don''t tell me that she likes my Brother Guo Taiming here?! This is impossible. Her taste is¡­ quite terrible¡­

    Li Ye however was greeting Ji Yuan, "Sect Leader Ji Yuan! Brother Ji Yuan! I am so d to see you in this ce!"

    He was actually given permission by Ji Yuan to call him Brother Ji Yuan since that was what they used to call one another before Li Ye had joined the Emperor Hall Sect.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he answered him, "Ah! Brother Li Ye, you are also here. Howe the 3 of you are together? And with a maiden?"

    Months ago, he had actually used a scrying profound treasure to locate Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin. So he already knew that they were cowering at the lower levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    But he had not expected for them to actually be able to reach the final trial and managed to reach the final trial intact too.

    He really found it hard to believe.

    Then he turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiao and he was frowning; if they got Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s protection, then this was actually quite possible to achieve.

    Li Yeughed softly as he said to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, I see that you have a beautiful maiden that is with you. What is her name? Care to introduce?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao did not say anything and instead she was frowning secretly with some bewilderment: Ji Yuan''s friends don''t look so strongpared to this maiden here¡­

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "This is Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao¡­"

    Then he pretended to ask, "Who is this beautiful maiden that is with you guys?"

    Shen Qin and Guo Taiming almost said at the same time, "She is Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao!"

    Ji Yuan said, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, pleased to know you¡­"

    Then he turned to Xuan Qiaoqiao and pointed at Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye. "They are all my brothers here. They are Brother Shen Qin, Brother Guo Taiming and Brother Li Ye here. Haha¡­ to think that we will chance upon one another in this ce, especially when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is near to its end soon."

    Guo Taiming grinned, "Hohoho. That is right. Damn, this ce is so dangerous. We shouldn''t havee here at all. It is lucky that we are all alive here. Now with Brother Ji Yuan to join us in this forest, our chances of survival will surely increase!"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not staying here."

    Guo Taiming, Li Ye, Shen Qin: ???

    Guo Taiming looked shocked, "Why Brother Ji Yuan? Are you going tomit suicide by venturing out of this forest?"

    Then he pointed at the carnage that was around, "You may not be this lucky every time to encounter low level abyssals like this."

    Ji Yuan exined, "I am actually trying to escort Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao to the Nightfall Heights. So I can''t stay in this forest. But I can stay for a while to catch up with you guys. Hahaha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ji Yuan with a smile, "Since Ji Yuan has met your friends here, naturally you should catch up with them first. I am in no hurry."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Thank you for your understandings. Also, I got something important to talk with Brother Li Ye too."

    Li Ye: ???

    Ji Yuan was suddenly looking quite awkwardly at Li Ye.

    It was because he was wondering how he should tell Li Ye that he had green him with Fairy Qiu Xiuyu back in the lower mortal realm¡­

 Chapter 1021 Ji Yuan Cuckolded Li Ye?

    ?

    Guo Taiming took Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao to their campsite.

    Li Ye asked Ji Yuan curiously, "This maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao, she isn''t a celestial right? She doesn''t have golden eyes like us. Or did she use the same mystic eye profound art like you did thest time to disguise her cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "She is a native here and not a celestial."

    When Shen Qin overheard Ji Yuan, he could not help praising him. "Brother Ji Yuan, everywhere you go, you always have plenty of beauties with you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao who was walking behind Ji Yuan and was walking with Ding Xiaoxiao, could not resist asking. "How many dao partners did Ji Yuan have in the Celestial Realm?"

    Shen Qin turned back andughed jovially, "No more than a dozen."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to answer for me?

    Why is that I got a feeling that all my brothers are pigs in my team now?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned unhappily, "That is a lot. I want to be Ji Yuan''s number one consort."

    Shen Qin chuckled, "This is impossible. They are all mostly saintesses. You can''t beat them."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "Is that so?"

    Ji Yuan could only smile weakly at her reply as he thought: You can''t defeat Yun Chi or my Qianfeng. Also, if Destinyes along too, you will surely be screwed.

    The reason why he did not say anything because in his heart, the number 1 consort had already gone to his Xia Jiajia.

    It did not matter to him if his Jiajia is weaker than Yun Chi or to the other maidens; the number 1 consort in his heart had to go to her.

    When he has exited the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he is going to remind Jiajia to keep her pledge to marry him.

    And then he is going to bang her day and night.

    With this thought, he was grinning himself silly as he walked with Li Ye, Shen Qin, Guo Taiming, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Along the way, Guo Taiming and Li Ye told him how they had met Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Guo Taiming evenughed aloud, "You know Brother Ji Yuan. I don''t want to tell you this but Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is your fan girl and she hopes to catch a glimpse of you in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Then he turned to look back at Ding Xiaoxiao as heughed awkwardly, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao. Now that you have met my Brother Ji Yuan, what is your impression of him? Did he meet your expectations?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, "Great Saint Ji Yuan is everything that I''ve imagined him to be. He has more or less meet my expectations of him."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "That is good to hear."

    Shen Qin asked Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, you don''t seem so passionate about meeting my Brother Ji Yuan now? I thought that you would be excited about this?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Well, I am blessed to have some good friends in here. As for my idol Ji Yuan, he already has too many maidens with him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Guo Taiming was jovial when he had heard Ding Xiaoxiao and he gave Ji Yuan a hearty pat, "You heard Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, right? So Brother Ji Yuan, don''t have any funny ideas on her. You don''t want to green your brothers, right? After all, I have met Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao before you."

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly and he was secretly looking at Li Ye too.

    But he answered, "Right. Haha¡­ I will never green my brothers. Never! Haha!"

    Shen Qin wasughing jovially too as he looked at Guo Taiming, "Now it is fair game between the two of us."

    Guo Taiming was alsoughing jovially too.

    If Ji Yuan was interested in Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao too, they felt that they stood no chance against him. Or rather his beautiful looks.

    Ding Xiaoxiao simply smiled, saying nothing.

    Shen Qin asked Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, between Brother Guo Taiming and I here, which one of us stand a better chance of wooing you?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled faintly before saying, "Both of you are outstanding and both of you have an equal chance. I can''t decide between the two of you¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was frowning silently: Are you trying to two timing the two of them at the same time?

    Ding Xiaoxiao however was thinking: I can''t decide between the two of you because the two of you are equally inferior for me.

    Soon Ji Yuan had reached his three brothers'' campsite and they were chatting over their adventures inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan told them he had been to ces where the maidens were naked and another ce where the maidens were dressed almost nakedly.

    Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin dropped their jaws when they had heard Ji Yuan; from their expressions, Ji Yuan knew that they had not been to these ces.

    Ji Yuan also knew that they were resisting the temptation of asking him where these two ces were but because there were two beautiful maidens here, they had resisted the temptation.

    Guo Taiming said all of a suddenly, "Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought: It seems that Brother Guo Taiming cannot resist the temptation of asking me where the two ces are now. Haha¡­

    Guo Taiming said, "Brother Ji Yuan, you must be pulling our legs. There are no such ces."

    Shen Qin grinned, "Yeah! There are no such ces at all. I was almost fooled. Muhahaha¡­"

    Li Ye was also shaking his head, "Indeed. Such ces do not exist at all. I don''t believe cultivators will go around naked."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What is wrong with me today? I seem to have guessed everything wrong today except for the part about Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Or is it because Ding Xiaoxiao is here, so my judgement today is clouded?

    Or because I am guilty of greening my Brother Li Ye here?

    Ji Yuan could not resist the urge to ask Li Ye, "Brother Li Ye. You havee from the lower mortal realm and is an Ascended Celestial. What if you got a beautiful maiden in the mortal realm that is waiting for you?"

    Li Ye frowned, "Is it even possible?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I mean what if. What if this beautiful maiden is also your core prot¨¦g¨¦? And she happens to love you too?"

    Li Ye shook his head, "I am a cultivation grand master in the lower mortal realm. How can I fall in love with my own disciple?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "But you are not master and disciple when you are in the Celestial Realm. What if she likes you and hopes that you will reciprocate her?"

    Li Ye frowned as he remembered something; he did have a disciple that likes him in the lower mortal realm before he had ascended¡­

    He shook his head, "I don''t know."

    Ji Yuan asked again with an even awkward look, "What if this beautiful maiden that likes you is banged by the others and he has stolen her heart from you?"

    Guo Taiming frowned, "You mean someone cuckolded Li Ye while he is away?"

    Ji Yuan could only smile bitterly: That''s me.

    Li Ye frowned, "It is impossible for me to have any master-disciple rtionship. I am strongly against it. If my disciple can find someone that she can love, why not?"

    Guo Taimingughed as he looked at Ji Yuan, "Someone here took his two core prot¨¦g¨¦s as his consorts."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to remind me?

    I am also against any master-disciple rtionship too. Well, in the past at least¡­

    Li Ye asked Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, why do you erm¡­ ask me this weird question all of a sudden?"

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially now but did not say anything; since Li Ye was strongly against any master-disciple rtionship, it means that he did not cuckold his Brother Li Ye at all and Ji Yuan was d now.

 Chapter 1022 JY Wants To Bang Ding Xiaoxiao

    ?

    Ji Yuan, Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin chatted for a long time afterward.

    The two maidens Xuan Qiaoqiao and Ding Xiaoxiao did not join in their chats but they were listening eagerly to their conversations.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao wanted to know everything about Ji Yuan.

    As for Ding Xiaoxiao, Ji Yuan intrigued her; she had noticed that Ji Yuan was more formidable than they hadst parted and he was even at the False 8th cultivation realm level.

    She was quite puzzled how Ji Yuan was able to advance so strong in such a short time and she was thinking of challenging Ji Yuan again.

    Guo Taiming said to Ji Yuan, "You know Brother Ji Yuan. This ce isn''t a game. I know that you enjoy your trials but you can''t go around like this is the Celestial Realm. This ce isn''t a ce for you to go sight-seeing. Maybe you can''t even survive the trip to the Nightfall Heights. Why don''t you stay around here instead?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly after his intentions were exposed by Guo Taiming; he was indeed sight-seeing around.

    While Shen Qin and Li Ye were both nodding and agreeing with Guo Taiming, Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling gently to Ji Yuan.

    She smiled gently, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, speaking of games. How about we y a little game?"

    Ji Yuan turned his attention from Guo Taiming to her and he wasughing jovially, "Speaking of games, I am the master of games. Hahaha¡­"

    Guo Taiming, Li Ye, Shen Qin and Xuan Qiaoqiao: ???

    Game? What game?

    They were all curious what game Ding Xiaoxiao was trying to y with Ji Yuan.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "It is just a simple card game¡­"

    Immediately she had taken 3 cards and showed it to Ji Yuan and there was a Queen, a Prince and an Ace card. "If you can draw the Queen card from these 3 cards then you are the winner. How about that?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "This is child y to me. Haha¡­"

    Guo Taiming warned him, "Brother Ji Yuan, you are boasting. Be careful that pridees before the fall."

    Li Ye and Shen Qin were bothughing jovially when they had heard Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly as she continued, "But how about we have a little stake for this game so that this game will be a little more interesting and fun instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Haha. I am rich now! On! Let''s bet then! How much spirit stones are you going to bet? I will match your stake!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled gently, "I am not as wealthy as Great Saint Ji Yuan here. How about the loser agreeing to do one thing for the winner?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Surely you are not going to challenge me again before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Didn''t we already have an agreement on this?

    Shen Qin gave a word of caution to Ding Xiaoxiao, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, you must reconsider this. What if¡­ you know¡­"

    Then he turned to look at Ji Yuan cautiously.

    He was really worried that Ji Yuan may ask Ding Xiaoxiao to do something really ridiculously.

    Guo Taiming was also anxious even though Ji Yuan promised not to green them by snatching away Ding Xiaoxiao.

    He suggested, "Maybe it is better to let the others know what the winner wants first?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly as she looked at her scabbard, "I just want to pit my skills against Great Saint Ji Yuan so that I can improve upon my sword skill."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Damn. I know she just won''t give up.

    Shen Qin sighed softly, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, you are such a gentle sword maiden. There is no need to bother Brother Ji Yuan. I can give you a tip or two."

    Guo Taiming and Li Ye were both nodding too; like Shen Qin, they had also thought that Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was a gentle sword maiden. It was because they had never seen her unsheathing her scabbard before and she seemed to be a soft maiden.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "But Great Saint Ji Yuan is also a sword saint right? It is rare to find a sword saint even in the Celestial Realm. His aptitude with the sword should be quite high so it will be beneficial to me. Or¡­"

    She turned to smile gently at Ji Yuan, "Or is Great Saint Ji Yuan chickening it out?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I will chicken it out?"

    Guo Taiming quickly asked Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, why don''t you tell us what you want Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao to do first? If your request is too unreasonable then the game is off."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially; indeed he was nning something unreasonable so that Ding Xiaoxiao would call off the game.

    Earlier, Shen Qin had indeed given him an idea.

    He had in fact regretted epting the game too fast without knowing what was at stake.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he stared at Ding Xiaoxiao, "I want to bang you."

    When Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming had heard Ji Yuan, they had shocked and there were even angry looks on their faces; it was because Ji Yuan had promised them not to cuckold them!

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little startled when she saw the expressions on Shen Qin, Li and Guo Taiming; she wondered what this means?

    Unknown to her, Ji Yuan was using a local ng that was used in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ding Xiaoxiao muttered slowly, "Vent on me?"

    He just want to vent his frustrations on me? That''s all?

    So she smiled gently, "Alright then. If I win the game then you shall fight with me. But if you win, then I shall allow you to vent at me."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and was in disbelief; she allowed me to bang her?!

    Even Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye were both shocked with disbelief; they had never thought that their gentle Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao would actually allow someone to bang her for just a game?!

    Shen Qin panicky said, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, please reconsider this. What if Brother Ji Yuan wins? Then the consequences will be unimaginable!"

    Guo Taiming and Li Ye were also panicky urging Ding Xiaoxiao to reconsider having the bet.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao simply smiled, "It is alright. I won''t lose and I have no intention of losing."

    Ji Yuan thought weakly: I rather that you lose¡­ than having to fight you¡­

    He asked weakly, "Erm, Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, you really don''t want to reconsider this?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly as she shuffled the 3 cards rapidly while saying, "I have no regrets about this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Guo Taiming, Shen Qin, Li Ye: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she ced the three cards on the ground where they were all sitting. "Guess which one is the Queen of Hearts."

    The Queen card indeed had several red hearts on it.

    Ji Yuan did not have the intention to lose and he paused to rub his chin as he seemingly pondered.

    By now, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming were all guessing which of the card was the Queen card and they were all making their picks.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao was intrigued by the game and she pointed to the left of Ding Xiaoxiao, "Is it the third one?"

    They were astonished that Ding Xiaoxiao could shuffle the cards so fast!

    But of course, what they betted could not be counted as this game was just between Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Guo Taimingughed as he said to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, quickly make your choice. I know that even this is too hard for you to see. I didn''t expect Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao to be so skillful in shuffling the cards."

    "Yeah, same here." Li Ye was forced to admit. Even his eyes could not catch up with the speed of her shuffling.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was forced to agree too; even with her high level cultivation realm, she could not tell as well.

    Ji Yuan pretended to smile bitterly but he was thinking: Of course all of you can''t tell. That is because she has cheated¡­

    He was only pretending to smile bitterly and appeared to be at a loss.

    All of a sudden just when Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling wryly at him, he had seized the initiative to reach out for the cards!

    The trick in this game was not to allow Ding Xiaoxiao to even touch the card or she could easily substitute it.

    In this type of game, Ji Yuan''s eyes were too quick and he was actually an experienced hand.

    He quickly said as he reached out for the card on the left and said, "This is not the one¡­"

    As he revealed the card to be an Ace card, he had also quickly reached out to the card on the right andughed jovially, "This is also not the one!"

    The card on the right turned up to be a Prince card.

    Then Ji Yuan looked up to grin at Ding Xiaoxiao, "Therefore the card in the middle is the correct one. Haha¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was stunned; she had actually lost.

    Actually, the card in the middle was not the correct one. None of the cards were the correct ones.

    Ji Yuan''s victory stunned Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye.

    This would mean that Ji Yuan got the chance now to bang Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao¡­

    "This¡­." Guo Taiming and Shen Qin were the most stunned.

    Ding Xiaoxiao muttered softly, "I''ve lost¡­"

    She had remembered that she had lost to a maiden before and that maiden''s name was Shangguan Yan.

    Naturally Shangguan Yan was able to win Ding Xiaoxiao because her perceptions with the card game hade from Ji Yuan who was the grandfather of the card tricks.

    Ji Yuan was now grinning, "I have won. Haha¡­"

    Li Ye weakly said, "This is just a game. We should all treat this as a game. The bets are just for fun¡­"

    "No!" Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly interrupted him and she was looking at Ji Yuan, "When I make a gambit, I always honor it."

    Li Ye, Shen Qin, Guo Taiming: ¡­

    Ji Yuan weakly smiled, "You can''t be serious, am I right?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked, "So do you want to vent your frustrations on me in public or privately?"

    Ji Yuan, Li Ye, Shen Qin and Guo Taiming were all startled¡­

    They had heard, "So do you want to bang your frustrations on me in public or privately?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Privately?"

    She is so bold to want it in public?

    She really wants me to bang all my frustrations on her? I can really be a savage cultivator as I ravage her. After all, I have learnt quite a few dual cultivation tricks from Little Princess¡­

    There was a slight flush in Ding Xiaoxiao as she nodded; this Ji Yuan had actually cared about her reputation and he had chosen not to rant at her in public.

    But all of a sudden Guo Taiming had rushed forward to strangle Ji Yuan on his neck, "Ji Yuan! You are not my brother anymore! How dare you! I want to kill you!"

    Ji Yuan was knocked back by Guo Taiming but he was not strangled enough because their cultivation realm was too vast and Guo Taiming could not even bypass his thin profound animus that was automatically triggered to protect him.

    "Brother Guo Taiming! Please hear my exnations!"

    "I kill you, you bastard!"

    Soon, Guo Taiming was punching Ji Yuan angrily even though his punches could not hurt him.

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned to Li Ye and Shen Qin to ask curiously, "What is wrong with Brother Guo here?"

    Li Ye smiled bitterly, "He is upset that Ji Yuan will be banging you."

    Even the expression on Shen Qin was awkward.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Yes, I intend to honor our agreement. But what is wrong with that? Isn''t it just letting Great Saint to rant all his frustrations on me?"

    "Rant?" Shen Qin and Li Ye were suddenly startled.

    They were both thinking: Did Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao thought that bang was vent?

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Rant or vent. Isn''t it the same meaning?"

    Shen Qin panicky exined, "Brother Ji Yuan says ''Bang'' and not your ''Vent''. Bang means, he wants to copte with you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was gasping all of a sudden; she had suddenly realized the meaning of the word ''Bang''.

    Guo Taiming and Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped fighting after they had overheard Ding Xiaoxiao as they thought together: She thought it is vent?

    Ding Xiaoxiao was the most stunned; she had insisted on going ahead with this bet and she had stated quite a few times that she would honor the bet...

 Chapter 1023 Vent And Not Bang

    ?

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to look at Ji Yuan with a stunned look¡­

    She had only wanted to duel with Ji Yuan but she had never thought he would actually desire her?

    In that moment, her cold and emotionless heart had been shattered by Ji Yuan¡­

    In the past, she had never considered having a dao partner because none of the male cultivators could beparable to her in their talent with the sword.

    But this Ji Yuan is different; he is a Sword Deity and he have also awakened 5 Sword Domains. Moreover, he is also very young and his talent can be considered heaven-defying.

    She knows it because they had fought some time ago in front of thousands of witnesses. And this Ji Yuan could even force her to use all her Sword Domains against him.

    Although she had been merciful toward him, considered that she has not unsheathed her true divinity sword or use her full strength, his talents with the sword are unmistakable.

    She continued to stare at Ji Yuan, suddenly appraising him in a different light now.

    He¡­ likes me?

    Since when?

    When we were dueling?

    She had to admit that this Ji Yuan was one of the few people that she had actually respected for his skills.

    However, there is one problem; they have a life and death fight when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over¡­

    Ji Yuan was also staring at Ding Xiaoxiao awkwardly and he was thinking: Is she offended by me? If she fights me in this ce, I will surely be screwed. Also, our fight will surely attract the attention of the nearby abyssals since this forest is so near to the royal city¡­

    Shen Qin said solemnly, "Since Maiden Xiaoxiao has misunderstood Brother Ji Yuan, this bet should not count at all."

    Guo Taiming and Li Ye were both saying at the same time, "That''s right, that''s right¡­"

    They had repeated many times the same time as they looked with great shock at Ji Yuan.

    Guo Taiming stared at Ji Yuan, "You are joking, right?"

    Ji Yuan weaklyughed, "Right. Right. I am only joking. I actually mean to say vent and not that bang¡­"

    Guo Taiming interrupted him, "Which vent or bang?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "That vent and not bang."

    Li Ye asked weakly, "You mean bang as screw?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The more Ji Yuan exined, the more confuse everyone was.

    Ji Yuan weakly exined, "I mean vent as in ranting and not that bang as in screwing. Do you all understand now?"

    Actually he was thinking: Actually it isn''t that bad to bang Ding Xiaoxiao¡­ since she is really such an attractive maiden¡­

    Guo Taiming interrupted Ji Yuan''s thought by asking him, "You didn''t even know Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao in the past. Why should you want to rant at her? Actually, you mean you want to bang her, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Howe you have be so smart all of a sudden¡­

    Ji Yuan bitterly said to Guo Taiming, Li Ye, Shen Qin and even Xuan Qiaoqiao, "I think all of you are thinking dirty, am I right? I am a gentleman of the sword¡­"

    Xiang Li secretly giggled to Anyang: Big Brother always say he is a gentleman of the sword when he is lying or caught lying. I know him best!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shut up, Xiang Li. Can''t you see that I am in a screwed position just because of the bang word?

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily was looking at Ji Yuan with an indiscernible expression as she thought: He only say that to match what I have thought to avoid embarrassing me?

    Li Ye was the first one to answer to Ji Yuan, "Indeed Brother Ji Yuan is a gentleman of the sword. We should not have doubted him. Now that Brother Ji Yuan has rified it, we all know that this is merely a misunderstanding."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly, "Right. Hahaha¡­"

    I didn''t cuckold you guys so please don''t look me like this.

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Yuan and she was suddenly sighing to herself: Thank you, Ji Yuan¡­

    She was suddenly looking at him in a different light and she was noticing him with her bleaming eyes.

    Ji Yuan turned to smile weakly at Ding Xiaoxiao, "I just want to rant this to you. Next time, don''t be too sure that you can win. Pridees before the fall. Haha¡­"

    He was actually thinking: There goes my bang. No wonder, she had asked me if I want to vent at her in public or private. This is a little too awkward¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded, "I''ll remember this."

    Ji Yuan quickly tried to change the topic, "Well then. Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao and I ought to continue our way now. It is good to chat with everyone here. But I am actually fighting against time to do something."

    Li Ye asked, "Brother Ji Yuan, after you have escorted Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao to the Nightfall Heights, you wille back here?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head, "I have something important to do in the royal city next. I have a friend there waiting for me."

    Li Ye looked startled and so did Shen Qin and Guo Taiming.

    "You have a friend in an abyssal city?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Yeah! I have an abyssal friend there. She is waiting for me to escort Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao back to the Nightfall Heights."

    Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin could not resist making a soft gasp. "You have an abyssal friend in an abyssal city?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao could not resist a chuckle, "She is actually Ji Yuan''s future consort."

    Guo Taiming stared at Ji Yuan, "You know Brother Ji Yuan. I know that I shouldn''t have said this but you sure have a heavy taste."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly smiled, "Actually I have my reasons¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly, "Love conquers all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Li Ye and Shen Qin were both nodding awkwardly when they noted Ji Yuan''s heavy taste and they were both thinking: It is no wonder why Brother Ji Yuan is eagerly exploring this ce¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Yuan curiously and she was thinking: He doesn''t mind taking an abyssal as his consort? I am a deste demonic race while he is a celestial¡­

    2. We all know that Ji Yuan never cuckold his friends. But he didn''t like to touch his brothers'' interests. But then again, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily are actually not attached.

 Chapter 1024 Prime Evil Gong Diablo

    ?

    Ji Yuan was now saying his farewells to Guo Taiming, Li Ye, Shen Qin and Ding Xiaoxiao now.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled, "Farewell. It is interesting to know you all."

    Ding Xiaoxiao who had been really quiet since she had lost her gambit with Ji Yuan was suddenly saying to him, "Do you need my help?"

    Ji Yuan thought: You mean you want to help me by killing me elsewhere? Haha¡­

    He smiled weakly, "I won''t be able to protect you. We are doing something dangerous. I think you ought to stay here where you will be safer. At least my 3 brothers here can protect you in this forest."

    This was a lie of course. She did not even need Ji Yuan or his brothers to protect her.

    Guo Taiming said to Ding Xiaoxiao, "Yeah! Brother Ji Yuan is a great saint. You won''t be much help to him."

    Shen Qin and Li Ye were agreeing too.

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked a little disappointed as she looked subtly at Ji Yuan.

    She returned a light nod, "Alright then. Be very careful."

    She was not good with words and when she asked Ji Yuan to be very careful, this carried her most tender affection for someone.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes when he had heard her: Did she just ask me to be very careful? She won''t run a sword on my back or something, right? She is still upset about the incident just now?

    Ding Xiaoxiao was taken aback when she suddenly saw that Ji Yuan was blinking at her.

    Is he hinting me about something? He is interested in me?

    Ji Yuan repeated his farewells again before he quickly pulled Xuan Qiaoqiao along with him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little surprised that Ji Yuan seemed to be in a hurry to leave. "Why are you more in a hurry than me?"

    When Ji Yuan felt that they had moved far enough, he heaved a soft sigh of relief and said to Xuan Qiaoqiao. "Whew! I was hovering at death door just now."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ???

    She weakly said, "I don''t see you in any danger. Rather, I feel that your 3 brothers may be in danger from that Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao over there. Do you think that you should leave them alone with her?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I have a feud with that Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao actually. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled, "But the two of you are talking like friends just now?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said to her, "We are only pretending to be friends. My 3 brothers will be safe enough as long as they do not know her true identity. I am more worried about myself. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ???

    Ji Yuan exined with a soft sigh, "You see. We just had a life and death duel some time ago only. I am not her match."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled, "You are a Sword Deity and you can''t win her?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Surely you can tell that her cultivation realm is much higher than me, right?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled, "You should have more confidence in yourself. After all, you are a Sword Deity with 6 Sword Domains."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "She is also a Sword Deity with 5 Sword Domains. In my fight with her, I''ve used 5 Sword Domains against her 4 Sword Domains. After my fight ended with her, we both realized 1 more Sword Domain. However my 2 Sword Domains are only equaled to her 1 Sword Domain¡­"

    "No, correction. I had used 5 Sword Domains against her 3 Sword Domains because she had already exhausted 1 of her Sword Domain in an earlier fight with the others."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was startled, "She is this strong?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Do you know what her nick is? She is Number 1 to the Great Demon God."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped with shock, "The Great Demon God?! The Great Demon God Hong Meng?"

    Ji Yuan was also looking startled, "You have heard of the Great Demon God in this ce too?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "I have read about him in the myths of the Cardinal Library."

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan and asked curiously, "Howe you know of the Great Demon God too? Isn''t he from the Immortal Deste Realm?"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Well, he is here in the Celestial Realm now with two other True Gods from the Immortal Deste Realm."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked curiously, "Which other 2 True Gods?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "The Deste Dragon God Longdi and the Death God Mingwang. Now you know my problem. The Celestial Realm is now in deep trouble now."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed, "Then your Celestial Realm is doomed. You can''t win a True God. They are almost all half-step True Divinity monsters. Even if you got 100 000 years, you can''t reach the 9th immortal positioning. In fact, it is extremely hard to advance when you are at the 9th Immortal Positioning."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I know."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was smiling suddenly, "But don''t worry. They will be restricted once they descend to a lower realm. So they won''t be able to stay for too long. As long as you can hide long enough, they can''t really bother you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Unfortunately for me and my Celestial Realm, this Great Demon God has already been hiding in the Celestial Realm for thousands of years. And from what I have heard, they have almost recovered to the peak of the 9th immortal positioning."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled, "It is really unusual for the Great Demon God to descend to the lower realm for thousands of years to make it into his own. But I have long heard that the Celestial Realm is unique. It is rich in both the spiritual and deste aura."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "When I am back to the Celestial Realm, I will find out more. A maiden that is close to my heart is fighting against the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce now. That is why I have to be stronger while I am here so that I can be of help to her."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled, "A maiden that is close to your heart?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Yeah! Her name is Jiajia. If you cane to the Celestial Realm in the future, I can introduce you to her."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little sad, "You know that I have no way of going to the Celestial Realm¡­"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I take you as my consort if you cane to the Celestial Realm. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao lit a faint smile, "Really? Don''t forget your promise today."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha. Of course. Of course. If you don''t mind a lecherous cultivator like me with so many maidens around."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked up to the red heavens and she was sighing woefully all of a sudden, "Actually, things are also not that good for my Ancient Old Ones here or the Dark Abyssal Realm."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why so? You don''t have to marry that old toad Gong Magog yet. I will do my best to help you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao shook her head, "Not that. Do you remember that an abyssal immortal has descended to aid the Abyssal King Gong Magog?"

    "I remember that," Ji Yuan nodded.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed, "That abyssal also happens to be a True God too. And his name is the Prime Evil Gong Diablo."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he muttered, "Prime Evil Gong Diablo?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "He is one of the 3 totem abyssals to survive the Great Cleansing Wars when the True Devil God had attacked the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm in the past. And he is now in my realm¡­"

    Then she looked woefully at Ji Yuan, "Do you think my race is able to fight against a True God?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "We are going against a True God?"

    He was suddenly cursing the Trial Spirit: I thought you say my trial here isn''t the most dangerous?!

 Chapter 1025 Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle

    <h4>Chapter 1025 Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle</h4>

    Ding Xiaoxiao had aplex look when she saw Ji Yuan hurried away with Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    It was not because she was envious of Xuan Qiaoqiao but she was thinking how Ji Yuan had defeated her twice.

    The first time was naturally their duel; in her excitement to defeat Ji Yuan, she had used her 8th cultivation realm level to defeat Ji Yuan who was only at the 7th cultivation realm. Although she had actually won the duel because of this but she was not happy about this victory as she had wanted to lower her cultivation realm to match Ji Yuan in order to have a fair and worthy fight.

    One must know that Ding Xiaoxiao was almost unmatched with the sword and even in this Dark Abyssal Realm where her profound strength was restricted due to the less rich deste aura here, she could still kill most of the abyssals that were in this red forest.

    The second time that Ji Yuan had won over her was naturally earlier when they had yed a guessing game of card. While this may seem like an ordinary guessing card game but the stake was high.

    She had originally intended to ask Ji Yuan for a rematch now that he was grown stronger, if he were to lose to her, of course.

    However, he had won and she had even misunderstood his intentions. And he had even rescued her from an awkward situation.

    But no matter what was on stake her, Ding Xiaoxiao was now seeing Ji Yuan in a different light now and she sworn in her heart to repay Ji Yuan this special favor.

    She was never someone that owes anyone a favor.

    The reason why she was with Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye were because they had helped her to quickly reach the final level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and had even helped her to ovee the difficult cultivation examination on the 6th level in order to ess the final trial area.

    Because of that, she was protecting them until the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye simply had no idea how many times they should have died without her secret aid.

    -

    -

    -

    The Celestial Realm.

    The Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    A profound ship of 300 cultivators was now approaching the Five Heavens Peak.

    Saint Cao Anhuan was in charge of this profound ship.

    In this ship were 3 Saints, 10 6th realm cultivators, 30 5th realm cultivators and the rest were cultivators that were below the 5th realm cultivators.

    All of them used to be orthodox cultivators that had defected to the Evil Cultivation Pce and they had received the ''benefits'' of joining the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The benefits were of course, the maidens and they could have their picks once the Evil Cultivation Pce had their fun with them; that is, if they are alive of course.

    Today Saint Cao Anhuan and the other two saints who were vice-captain of this profound ship were in charge of looking for the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and the rest of the rebels that were still fighting against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Saint Nu Erbang grumbled unhappily, "This region is too poor. They won''t be here at all."

    Saint Kim Suyang agreed, "Just our profound ship alone is equaled to all the puny celestial sects in this poor region. This ce is not even worth sacking to refuel our profound ship. In fact, we have to folk out the spirit stones for ourselves for this stupid trip."

    Saint Cao Anhuan said coldly, "Remember who our new master is now and he is the Evil Cultivation God. Since it is amand given by the Evil Cultivation Pce, we ought to check this ce out."

    Indeed, the profound ship was equipped with thetest state of art profound scanner that could pick up the presence of profound energies for 100 miles around.

    However what their profound scanner could pick up was quite miserable to look at; this region was too poor and even the broken down buildings of the celestial sects in this ce were not giving off any profound signatures.

    Saint Nu Erbang angrily said, "I can''t believe that there are actually thousands of cultivators in this damn region. Can you see how shitty their celestial sects'' defensive arrays are that their defensive arrays are not even giving out the standard level of our region. the Howe this ce isn''t just a mortal region yet?!"

    Saint Kim Suyang hummed coldly, "Even the spiritual veins of these mountains are too pathetic. They won''t be hiding in this ce."

    "Don''t be too hasty to conclude yet." Saint Cao Anhuan warned them solemnly. "This poor region happens to be home region of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    There was a cold smirk from Saint Kim Suyang, "I''ve heard that he isn''t in his home region most of the time. Maybe that is why he could attain as a Sword Saint."

    "Sword Saint?" Saint Nu Erbang wasughing aloud. "That is only because the others respect his sword skill at the lower cultivation level only. When a cultivator reaches the 6th and the 7th cultivation level, his sword skills are just fanciful y. I can just stand there and let him attack me and he won''t even be able to hurt me. Hahahaha¡­"

    "And I have heard that he is merely only a saint cultivator and not even a great saint." Saint Kim Suyangughed too.

    They naturally did not know that Ji Yuan is now a Great Saint and also a super cultivator now too. But even if he is merely a saint, Ji Yuan could still be able to find his own way to trash them.

    Saint Cao Anhuan ignored their remarks and said, "If Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue''s profound ship is here, we will still be able to detect it even if they drain the profound energies from their profound ship. It is because it is difficult to get rid of the residue profound energies and it will stay there even for 100 years¡­"

    "Therefore we want to make sure that our profound ship passes through all the deste mists in this region. Once we have done so, we can go back."

    Then he said with a thoughtful look, "The most powerful celestial sect in this region is the Emperor Hall Sect. It is located in the central mountainous region of the Five Heavens Peak. So we want to make sure that the vicinity around the Emperor Hall Sect is being searched more thoroughly."

    Saint Kim Suyang was smiling wryly all of a sudden, "I have a good suggestion. I have heard that Fairy Ye Chengxi is one of the four great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. And even her prot¨¦g¨¦ sister Shangguan Yan is also a great beauty. Why don''t we attack the Emperor Hall Sect to seize them for ourselves? After we have our fun with them then we can present them to the Evil Cultivation Pce. In this way, we may even get a praise or a reward from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    "That is a good idea!" Saint Nu Erbang gave an excited shout. "Why didn''t I think of that? Let''s do that!"

    Although Saint Cao Anhuan was frowning but he was forced to admit, "This is actually a good idea. We can''t have a wasted trip here. Even if we can''t find the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue in this region, at least we have something to answer for our failures¡­"

    Then he raised his voice a little, "Let''s do it then!"

    As he delightfully announced this, all of a sudden there was a spatial disturbance from the mountains below that rocked their profound ship.

    As the three saints took a look at the mountains on the deck of their profound ship, they were startled to see that a golden profound circle was seen forming at the mountains.

    All of a sudden, a powerful energy was forming around the magic circle.

    The 3 saints were shocked when their divine sense could even feel the powerful animus of this profound energy that was being formed from so far away. "What is this energy... true divinity profound energy?"

    But before they know it, a long beam of powerful profound energies had been fired from this golden profound circle and hadpletely washed over them,pleting annihting the entire profound ship!

    The entire profound ship waspletely destroyed, including all the cultivators that were onboard as it was caught up in the vast energies arrays of this long beam of profound energies!

    It was actually Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei that had disyed the Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle.

    She was actually quite startled by the powerful disy of this divine profound circle that was taught to her by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    This was actually the first time that she had used it and she had used it because she had suggested to the maidens that were with her that it may worth a try rather than boarding their profound ships to fight against this scout ship.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Yuluo, Shui Qingqing, Ling Tianshui, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue who were with Xu Yufei were all astonished and stunned; they could not believe that a mere magic circle could actually bypass the profound shield of a medium size profound ship.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue blinked her lovely eyes and looked at Xu Yifei with a dovely smile, "I can''t believe this but you''ve actually did it. This is really an outer world profound art."

    The other maidens were also smiling as they happily surrounded an exhausted Xu Yifei.

    The reason why Xu Yifei was exhausted because this divine profound circle snapped too much of profound strength and she would not be able to use the Myriad Heaven Sundering Magic Circle until she could regain her exhausted profound strength.

    Hua Wuwu was bleary as she took a look at Xu Yifei, "With you around, we have a chance to avenge my mistress now."

    She was naturally referring to her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress the Saintess Fang Zhenfei aka Xia Jiajia.

    Hua Baiyue was also nodding with great delight, "Maybe we can even bring down the Evil Cultivation God too."

    Xu Yifei smiled at Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue; somehow she seemed to have a great affinity with these two sisters here and they had got along quite well over the past few days.

    "Your prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress is a great heroine who sacrifices herself to fight against the evil oppression here. I am sure that the Great Beyond Goddess has sent me here to help you."

    In just a few days, a kind and gentle Xu Yifei has be the spiritual leader of this group of maidens as she taught them her spirit cultivation.

    Also, she is also the strongest cultivator in this group.

    Xue Qianxue and the other maidens simply could not believe how Ji Yuan could have made such a beautiful and powerful maiden to leave her own world to arrive at the Celestial Realm, just to help everyone.

 Chapter 1026 The Pentecost Mountains

    ?

    At the Pentecost Mountains of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, where the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is located.

    A monstrous floating citadel was seen floating on the stratosphere above the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and it was apanied by numerous profound ships, big and small totaling 144 vessels.

    This monstrous floating citadel was indeed the Evil Cultivation Pce of the Evil Cultivation God and the Evil Cultivation God was inside the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The main floti of the Evil Cultivation God had decided to position itself in the Pentecost Mountains because the opposing cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity were still making gueri tactics against them.

    The Evil Cultivation God had thought that with the death of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei who was the spiritual leader of the resistance forces, the bulk of the cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity would surrender to them.

    Instead, her death only aroused the fighting spirit of the resistance forces.

    Even though 1/5 of the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators did surrender but the rest was defiant to the might of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    It was because Saintess Fang Zhenfei had shown them that even a True God could still be killed. And the death of the Deste Dragon God Longdi by Saintess Fang Zhenfei only aroused their determination to fight to the end.

    Although the Saintess Fang Zhenfei was also mortally wounded by the Deste Dragon God Longdi during their battle, it did not stop her from going to the Great Deste Divine Pce to mount a challenge against the Great Demon God Hong Meng.

    Although she had perished in her attempt, she had shown the resistance forces her courage and the determination to stay the hands of the Evil Cultivation Pce from the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Even thought Saintess Fang Zhenfei was dead but the people of the Celestial Deste Fraternity had positioned her in their hearts and cemented her as their heroine.

    The resistance forces actually did not know that the Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian had usurped from the Great Demon God.

    What they know was that they had been fighting against the elusive Evil Cultivation Master for a long time and now that he hade out of his hiding, he had suddenly dered himself to be the Evil Cultivation God.

    And the Evil Cultivation God was also contended to allow the resistance forces to believe that he was merely a powerful puppet of the Great Demon God and using the fear of the Great Demon God to subjugate anyone that opposed to his rule.

    The Evil Cultivation God was now saying angrily to Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night and to the Goddess Alyssa, "These lowly ants are too infuriating! They are still erecting status of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei in this ce!"

    Ever since the death of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei, the celestials of the Deste Celestial Fraternity had been secretly erecting statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei in the Pentecost Mountains to make their defiance against the tyranny of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    No matter how many statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei that the Evil Cultivation Pce had destroyed, celestials from all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity were still erecting statues in secret on the lofty peaks of the Pentecost Mountains to show everyone that the resistance forces still stand.

    It was not to say that the Evil Cultivation God did not do anything to break the spirits of the celestials.

    In fact, they had ordered a massacre to kill all the young men that were in the Pentecost Mountains, not even sparing the ones that were still at the first to the second cultivation realm, which the celestials considered to be merely mortal cultivators that have yet to be a true celestial cultivator.

    As for the maidens and the children, they were stripped naked and given to the heretic cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce to be their living cauldrons or ves.

    That did not stop the celestials in the Pentecost Mountains from surrendering their determination to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce. Rather, it aroused their rage and caused many of them to go into hiding in the mountains to fight against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    For that, the numerous celestial sects that were allied with the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect were all willingly to abandon their sect''s pces and sacred grounds.

    It was quite impossible for the Evil Cultivation Pce to clean the vast mountains of the Pentecost Mountains to look for the dissenting cultivators in such a short time, especially when the bulk of their flotis were still receiving attacks from numerous areas in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The biggest irony now was that in the past, even though the Evil Cultivation Pce had suffered numerous defeats by the celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, it had always managed to escape due to the vastness of the mountains and also due to the deste mists that were at below the mountains.

    The same thing now had happened to the Evil Cultivation Pce as they found it difficult to weed out the celestials from the Pentecost Mountains due to the very same reason.

    The presence of the floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce here however, did reduce the number of attempts to erect statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and that was why the Evil Cultivation Pce had chosen to position their presence here while sending their profound ships to put down any resistance forces that they encountered elsewhere.

    At the same time, they were also eager for any news of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and her Celestial Orthodox Sect.

    The Goddess Alyssa said coldly, "It seems to me that we no longer have any hope of subjugating the celestials before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I am not so much worried about the return of the powerful celestials. No matter how powerful they are, they are still lowly seventh realm cultivators."

    Number 2 Murong Yue was hissing unhappily, "You¡­ mean-n-n¡­ Num-ber 1?"

    The Goddess Alyssa nodded as she said to Number 2 Murong Yue and the Evil Cultivation God, "Indeed. And also, the Death God Mingwang will also be bing back. Don''t forget that the Death God Mingwang is also a True God!"

    The Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian disyed a slight frown, "The Death God Mingwang and Number 1 are indeed troublesome to deal with. However, his loyalty with the Great Demon God is questionable since he is also a True God. And no True God will serve another willingly. Therefore, we can still try negotiations with the Death God Mingwang first since he should be pleased that we have killed the Great Demon God for him. Surely the Death God Mingwang isn''t so foolish as to fight us all at the same time?"

    Then he smiled as he took a look at Number 2 Murong Yue, "I am sure that Number 1 isn''t your match now. After all, you have regained to the peak of your Ninth Immortal Positioning in your beautiful form here. And Number 1 may still not be able to regain to her peak here."

    The ''beautiful'' form of Number 2 was actually quite ugly after her metamorphosis.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed, "Kill-kill¡­ Num-ber 1!!!"

    The Goddess Alyssa asked, "What about that Sword Saint Ji Yuan? Isn''t there a prophecy about him by Diviner Mo Ming that after he has emerged from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that he may be able to be a savior?"

    The Evil Cultivation God said with cold disdain, "Is this Sword Saint Ji Yuan even a threat to us? He can''t even fight anyone of us here and he has a poor background. The only savior that he is going to be is to be a savior of the beardless cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    The Goddess Alyssaughed jovially, "That''s right. And beards are ugly. Maybe we can even make him our special ambassador to champion for the beardless cultivators¡­"

    "What did you just say?" The Evil Cultivation God stroked his beard as he growled, "Beards are ugly?!"

    The Goddess Alyssa turned ashen as she quickly exined weakly, "I don''t like beardless man as they are too effeminate. I mean even if this Ji Yuan has a beard, it looks ugly on him. No one can beparable to my Evil Cultivation God here."

    The Evil Cultivation God nodded his approval, "This ugly Ji Yuan must die. He dares to take away Little Princess from me."

    The Goddess Alyssa returned a slight nod, "Naturally this Ji Yuan must die. I can deal personally with him. After all, I have fought with him once before and I have the full confidence that I will be able to defeat him. But I am a little worried about the Abyssal Null Goddess that is with him."

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned, "The Abyssal Null Goddess is our own race. Now that we manage to be the master of this world, surely she would stand on our side."

    The Goddess Alyssa weakly said, "I hope so. A superior goddess like the Abyssal Null Goddess won''t side with a puny celestial like this Ji Yuan."

    2. This Chapter and the Previous Chapter is a foreshadowing of what is toeter. Next Chapter, Ji Yuan will be reaching the Nightfall Heights.

 Chapter 1027 Reaching the Nightfall Heights

    <h4>Chapter 1027 Reaching the Nightfall Heights</h4>

    The Dark Abyssal Realm.

    3 days after leaving the forest where Ji Yuan had met Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, he saw the great mountains of the Nightfall Heights.

    Although it was a mere 3 days but Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao did not take any long breaks. Instead they had traveled day and night for this 3000 miles journey.

    But to Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao, this was actually an easy journey.

    The great mountains of the Nightfall Heights were surrounded by numerous chasms and red forests; any invasion forces would not have an easy time to reach the Nightfall Heights.

    When Ji Yuan saw the mountain walls of the Nightfall Heights, he was also in shock.

    It was because the mountain sides were almost vertical in steepness on all sides and the lowest height was at least 30 miles and it sketched for 100 miles.

    Ji Yuan thought: It is no wonder why the Ancient Old Ones are able to survive for so long despites the superior strength of the abyssal races here. It is because they can''t fly in the first ce.

    Although the abyssals could still use flying mounts to reach the heights of the Nightfall Heights but if they did then they would not have any numerical advantage.

    He said to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "This is your home? Can you even climb the mountains here?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly at him, "Do I need to climb when I have wings?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Do you have to run with me when you can fly home anytime?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly, "That is because you can''t fly, that''s why."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said bitterly, "Why don''t you fly me to your home in the first ce?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled, "That is because you are too heavy for me."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "What about now?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao pretended to appraise the heights of the Nightfall Mountains before smiling, "Well, I can try. But there is no promise that I will be able to grip you tightly."

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Don''t worry about it. I will drag you along with me if I happen to fall."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao winked at him, "Don''t worry too. I can kick you down easily if I am falling."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He simply shrugged his shoulders and he was soon grinning; it was because he knows that Xuan Qiaoqiao was only teasing him.

    In the past 3 days, they had exchanged many small chats while they were speeding across the terrains. It resulted in them having a deeper understanding of each other now, especially when Xuan Qiaoqiao had also learnt quite a lot about him from his three brothers.

    She would ask him all sorts of questions about the Celestial Realm while telling him about the Dark Abyssal Realm at the same time too.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao began to sigh softly, "Soon, I will be back to the Cardinal Cathedral as the¡­ Cardinal Priestess. I may not have the freedom to see you or to protect you from harm."

    She had deliberately slow down their journey a little as she wished to spend more time alone with Ji Yuan. But the inevitable still happen; they had finally reached the Nightfall Heights.

    Ji Yuan simply grinned, "Don''t worry about that. I can take care of myself. Who knows. Maybe I can even gain some tips from my other fellow ves in your ce. Haha!"

    By now, Ji Yuan had learnt from Xuan Qiaoqiao that there were no other False Immortals in the Nightfall Height. Therefore, he would still be able to disguise his cultivation realm. So this was actually a small constion to him.

    However if his identity as a celestial or a high level cultivator would to be discovered then death only awaited him as he would be facing numerous seventh realm cultivators of the Ancient Old Ones. And given his inability to cultivate in the Dark Abyssal Realm or to regain his profound strength in this ce, he would soon doom himself should a fight were to break out.

    Therefore, he had to disguise himself well.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao''s n was simple enough and she had reminded him to strictly follow the script; she would introduce Ji Yuan to be a new ve that she had suddenly fancied and hence, she had brought him back.

    "Remember what I''ve told you."

    However, Ji Yuan may not be able to follow her to the Cardinal Cathedral as it was off limits to the men.

    So her elders would probably send him to the ve quarter, with the worst oue to the mines.

    Ji Yuan assured her, "Don''t worry. I am famous for following the scripts. Hahaha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed softly, "Keep the Star Heart Pendant that I''ve given you. This will allow us tomunicate with each other. However, it can only be used thrice. Use it when only necessary."

    Then she asked Ji Yuan, "Are you really sure about this? That you want to follow me to the Nightfall Heights? That you can find the spy within 2 weeks?"

    Ji Yuan nodded firmly, "With or without finding the spy, I will take you away from here in less than 2 weeks and then we will find Juan Xian''Er in the Nefarious Royal City."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was touched in her heart as she looked tenderly at Ji Yuan, "But you may die. Is it worth it? You are on a trial and not a death crusade. And your opponent is the True God of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It isn''t a matter of worth it or not. Or even if this is a trial or not. I shall not be green by anyone!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked startled but was also heartened at the same time; this means that Ji Yuan considered her as his maiden.

    She smiled wryly to Ji Yuan, "If we seed then I shall allow you to vent your frustrations at me."

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "Bang my frustrations on you? As in B-A-N-G?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly, "Nope. V-E-N-T, vent."

    Ji Yuan frowned, looking a little disappointed.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly, "I will allow you to vent all your frustrations on me. That is, you are allowed to vent all your desires on me¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s eyes had suddenly widened.

    She is allowing me to ravage her all I want?

    All of a sudden, he was thinking if Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao also meant the same thing?

 Chapter 1028 The Argos Palace (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1028 The Argos Pce (1)</h4>

    ?

    The bared back of Xuan Qiaoqiao had spurted forth feathery wings and she was now carrying Ji Yuan up the steep mountains of the Nightfall Heights.

    Ji Yuan was once carried by Little Jie''Er in the air butpared to them. Xuan Qiaoqiao had effortlessly lifted him with her profound aura around him and they had taken flight up the steep mountains.

    He was beginning to suspect that she actually had the profound strength to fly him all the way from the Nefarious Royal City to the Nightfall Heights and it was also no sweat for her.

    Although Ji Yuan was quite speechless that they had actually run 3000 miles over the past 3 days to this ce, he resisted the urge to question her as they were still in mid-air.

    He was a little afraid that she may just decide to drop him in mid-air by saying that she was too exhausted or he was too heavy.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled wryly to him, "So, are you afraid of heights?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "No¡­"

    He was actually not afraid of heights as he used to climb down to the deste mists with his bared hands. But he was a little afraid that she may drop him from such a great height instead.

    In just a short time, they had traversed 30 miles and were on top of the Nightfall Height Mountains.

    As soon as they emerged from the clouds, Ji Yuan immediately saw dozens of white pces on the top of the t teau of the Nightfall Height Mountains.

    At the same time, he saw hundreds of winged Ancient Old Ones in helmets and armors had already surrounded them; their approaches were not undetected as there were numerous subtle defensive arrays in the Nightfall Heights.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao however was not bothered by their presence.

    Instead she gently put Ji Yuan down to the ground and her gazes were piercing.

    The hundreds of winged Ancient Old Ones were now slow to quicky showed their deference to Xuan Qiaoqiao whom they had already recognized when she had appeared.

    "All hail Your Holiness, our Cardinal Priestess!" They quickly greeted her but maintained a distance from her.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled when he saw that there were at least 10 7th cultivation realm cultivators, 30 6th realm cultivators and 100 5th realm cultivators from these sentries.

    It is because in the Celestial Realm, golden celestials or 5th cultivation realm cultivators that have acquired their golden bodies are far superior to the 4th cultivation realm cultivators. Most of the cultivators that could reach the golden celestial level of the 5th cultivation realm are like arrogant young masters because they are hard to kill.

    So it was quite inconceivable to Ji Yuan that there would be so many ''golden celestials'' of this cultivation realm here that were acting as sentries.

    Ji Yuan whispered to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "You sure look popr."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao took a sheepish look at Ji Yuan as she whispered, "You are exactly as what your friends say of you. When you got nothing better to say, you still want to say something?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "It isn''t true¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed softly, "I am the Cardinal Priestess. Of course I am popr. Then why do you think that they are greeting me instead of you?"

    Ji Yuan immediately shut up and he was looking quite sheepish.

    "Come, follow me to the Argos Pce." Xuan Qiaoqiao said to Ji Yuan as she looked at the nearest white pce in front of her.

    Ji Yuan nodded as he began to follow her.

    But barely had he taken a few steps, a bald and beardless man with ck wings had flown out of the Argos Pce with several more flying Ancient Old Ones.

    Actually all the men here were beardless as they were all ''True Spiritas'' andcked facial hair.

    Ji Yuan saw that they were all 7th realm cultivators and the bald man in front had a robust 7th cultivation realm and he was probably the equivalent to a great saint.

    All the men that were behind his bald man were donning helmets but this bald man did not. Instead, he was carrying his winged helmet with him.

    There was something disconcerting about this approaching bald man when Ji Yuan saw that he had no ears.

    He looked quite startled and asked Xuan Qiaoqiao, "He has no ears?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao merely whispered to him, "It is nothing strange. All the male Ancient Old Ones in this ce do not have ears."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Only the males? The males here are all cursed?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gave a weak and sheepish look at Ji Yuan, "This is the custom of our Ancient Old Ones for the males to remove their ears or they would be too alike to the Spiritas ves in this ce. Also, ears would hinder the male Ancient Old ones from wearing their winged helmets which are their pride."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "You ought to tell me what other weird customs the Ancient Old Ones have¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao muttered weakly, "The males also circumcised themselves¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Xuan Qiaoqiao whispered to him, "Be quiet or you will be in trouble. They areing now."

    The bald man and his guards were in front of Xuan Qiaoqiao in just a few instances after emerging from the Argos Pce. After all, they were flying with great haste.

    The bald man looked overjoyed when he saw Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Your Holiness! You are finally back. Do you know that we have been searching everywhere for you?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was back to her cold demeanor now and she coldly said, "Millenium Jun Feitian, I have merely visited the nearby cities for some sight seeing and have brought a ve in the ve market. What? Do you think that I will run away and abandon by noble duties?"

    Ji Yuan thought: Well, you did run away...

    The bald man Jun Feitian stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "You have brought a lowly ve back to the Nightfall Heights?"

    Then he raised his hands as he said to the six men that were apanying him, "Centurions, throw this lowly ve down the Nightfall Heights!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I have barely stepped in this ce and they are throwing me out already?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao coldly interrupted, "You dare to touch my personal ve?! Don''t forget that I am your Cardinal Priestess!"

    Ji Yuan thought bitterly: Now I think that you are a powerless Cardinal Priestess in this ce¡­

    Jun Feitian smiled coldly, "This ve may well be a spy from the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. It is better to be safe than sorry."

    Ji Yuan silently said with some bitterness: Do you have to be so cautious about this? I am not a spy from the Nefarious Blood Kingdom although I am a spy of your Cardinal Priestess...

    "What is all thesemotions?" A young and beautiful maiden with pointed ears had suddenly appeared with six maidens apanying her.

    Her suddenly appearance had interrupted Ji Yuan''s thoughts and caused Jun Feitian to look in her direction.

    She was smiling wryly and coolly walking slowly as she appraised Xuan Qiaoqiao and Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw that she also had a robust cultivation and should be the equivalent of a great saintess.

    Jun Feitian immediately greeted this young maiden, "Elder sister, the Cardinal Priestess has brought back a ve and this is outside the boundary of her rights."

    This beautiful maiden nodded before she smiled wryly at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Your Holiness. I''m so d that you are back now. You must be quite tired from your journey. Why don''t you pass this ve to me? As you know that I am the Cardinal Confidant and I am in charge of the ves in the Nightfall Height. I can help you to better assign this ve to his more appropriate duties."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao did not look pleased to see this beautiful maiden but she merely said, "Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, I am about to look for you regarding this matter. After you have delegated this ve his duty, bring him to me at once so that I may know his new duties but¡­"

    She began to stare coldly at Jun Qianfeng, "I don''t want you to mess around with my ve or any harm to befall him. Is that understood?"

    Jun Qianfeng merely smiled as she looked at Ji Yuan, "A beautiful ve such as this human here is naturally a treasure that I will help my Cardinal Priestess to cherish."

    Ji Yuan could feel his hair standing when she had said that; it was because he could feel her killing intents toward him.

    Jun Qianfeng turned to Ji Yuan and said, "ve. From now onward, you will be called 4444. This is your number as well as your identity."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    4444?!

    Right, a ve has no right to a name¡­

    But why 4444?!

    And not 1111?

    Or 8888?

    Xiang Li giggled: I like the number 69 best!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Anyang: ...

    2. The Dark Abyssal Realm is supposed to be a dark world but somehow with Ji Yuan, it always turn up to be a funny write ~___~

 Chapter 1029 The Argos Palace (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1029 The Argos Pce (2)</h4>

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said to Ji Yuan, "I''m heading to the Cardinal Cathedral now. I shall see you soon enough."

    Although she seemed to be speaking to Ji Yuan but she was also putting a warning to Jun Qianfeng as well not to mess around with her ''ve''.

    Ji Yuan acknowledged immediately as they had earlier rehearsed what to say, "Yes, Your Holiness."

    With that, Xuan Qiaoqiao began to head in another direction.

    Ji Yuan could see that immediately a dozen of the cultivator sentries that had surrounded them earlier were all following her.

    Ji Yuan bitterly thought: I have thought that the Cardinal Priestess is only facing problems from her elders but it seemed to him that she was also facing strict surveince from the others too.

    Jun Feitian said quickly to his elder sister Jun Qianfeng, "I''ll leave this ve with you. I will go check on the Cardinal Priestess."

    With that, he had hurriedly left Ji Yuan alone with Jun Qianfeng and her entourage.

    Most of the sentries had also faded to the shadows by now.

    But Ji Yuan could feel the presence of numerous divine senses that were still trained on him from the numerous pces and these people were merely watching but not showing themselves.

    When Jun Qianfeng saw that her brother was gone, she smiled at Ji Yuan. "What is your name?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am Ji Yuan¡­"

    All of a sudden Jun Qianfeng had suddenly pped him violently and said coldly, "You are 4444!"

    Ji Yuan of course was able to see that she was going to p him but he remembered that he was merely a 2nd realm cultivator now and he pretended to roll on the ground with great exaggeration as he was being pped hard.

    He did not feel any pain but he had pretended that it hurt.

    Jun Qianfeng had actually controlled her profound strength as she could tell that Ji Yuan was only at the 2nd cultivation realm.

    She hummed coldly, "This is only a lesson for you. Next time remember your name."

    Ji Yuan pretended to beg to plead, "I won''t dare to forget my name again! I am 4444!"

    Jun Qianfeng was smiling now, "Good. Now follow me to the Argos Pce and I shall delegate your ve duties to you."

    While she was talking to Ji Yuan, he was thinking: You and your brother must be a spy!

    He had marked her for pping him.

    Anyang covered her face: My lord, this conclusion is too hasty¡­

    Xiang Li wasughing unconcerned about what had just happened: She is a spy?

    Very soon, Ji Yuan found himself in the great halls of the Argos Pce.

    The great halls of the Argos Pce were grand and there were many beautiful canvases in this ce; there were numerous paintings of the Ancient Old Ones in their winged forms and their armaments.

    Ji Yuan was quite impressed.

    Then he spotted many ''ves'' lining in the great hall; the males all worn a simple white garment while the maidens did not cover their upper bodies.

    Ji Yuan found his eyes hovering at the young maidens that were in the great hall¡­

    A young maiden in golden robe that was at the 6th cultivation realm quickly greeted Jun Qianfeng, "Your Cardinal Confidant, this is a new ve?"

    Jun Qianfeng lightly nodded before saying, "Priestess Ur Muyuan. He is 4444, a new ve that the Cardinal Priestess has brought back."

    Ur Muyuan was startled, "He is brought back by the Cardinal Priestess? But he is a man. Why did the Cardinal Priestess bring him back? What use is he going to be?"

    She turned to appraise Ji Yuan before frowning, "He does have a beautiful face¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng nodded nonchntly, "Maybe we shall have him to be a male harlot¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought: This isn''t such a bad idea¡­

    Jun Qianfeng was continuing her conversation with Ur Muyuan, "We can have him to entertain the visiting female abyssals as a male harlot. Hopefully, he won''t be broken so soon¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned ashen immediately: This is a bad idea¡­

    Jun Qianfeng paused to ponder for a while before she turned to say to Ji Yuan, "4444, do you have any talents that you can contribute to us?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Talents? Such as?"

    Jun Qianfeng frowned, "Such as craftmanship, painting, carpentry, masonry etc."

    Ji Yuan immediately grinned, "I am good in poetry."

    Jun Qianfeng, Ur Muyuan: ¡­

    Jun Qianfeng frowned, "We don''t need anyone that is good in talking."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then I can only be a male harlot due to my beautiful looks? I didn''te to this ce to offer my services as a free of charge male harlot¡­

    Jun Qianfeng turned to say to Ur Muyuan, "I guess that we can give him a ve position as a male harlot since we are inck of beautiful men for this position¡­"

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan panicky said.

    "I am also good in music. Does it count?"

    Jun Qianfeng stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Amon ve like you would be good in music?"

    Ji Yuan weakly exined, "I am really good in music. Haha¡­"

    Ur Muyuan looked at Jun Qianfeng, "Your Cardinal Confidant, there is indeed a position for someone who is good in music to support the Cardinal Harpies."

    Jun Qianfeng frowned, "This is out of question. The Cardinal Harpies are¡­"

    All of a sudden, a regal maiden in splendid robe had suddenly appeared in the great hall and she wasughing softly, "I''ve heard that this ve actually knows music. My Cardinal Harpies indeed is on a lookout for such a talent."

    Jun Qianfeng seemed to turn ashen immediately when she saw her.

    As for Ur Muyuan, she quickly greeted. "Your Cardinal Harpy, we are just discussing how to assign this 4444."

    Jun Qianfeng said coldly, "This 4444 may only know simple music. Maybe he only knows how to sing his native songs. It is unlikely that he knows how to use our musical instruments."

    Ji Yuan saw a ray of hope that he may escape from bing a male harlot so he quickly said to this neer, "Your Cardinal Harpy, you can put me to the test."

    The regal maiden smiled at Ji Yuan and said softly, "I have exactly the same sentiment as well."

    Then she turned to smile at Jun Qianfeng and Ur Muyuan, "You don''t mind that I put him to the test, do you?"

    Jun Qianfeng unhappily said, "No, I don''t."

 Chapter 1030 Iâ€™m not going to be Male Harlot

    <h4>Chapter 1030 I''m not going to be Male Harlot</h4>

    The regal and beautiful maiden that was titled the Cardinal Harpy looked at Ji Yuan and smiled to him, "What musical instruments are you able to y?"

    Ji Yuan had no idea what exotic musical instruments were popr in the Dark Abyssal Realm. However, all music had the same principle and he was particrly good at it when he was in the Dream Trial.

    So he answered, "I am good in all the musical instruments. Maybe you can show me one and I try to y it?"

    Jun Qianfeng interrupted him coldly, "This is quite a boast. You are not afraid of overblowing your air?"

    But the Cardinal Harpy simplyughed softly as she disyed a long flute from her spatial belt, "How about this?"

    Ji Yuan saw that this long flute had 13 holes in it and it was indeed something that he had never yed before.

    But he was still confident that he would be able to y this.

    So he took the long flute and said nonchntly, "I didn''t y this type of musical instrument for a long time. Give me a little while to get used to it¡­"

    Then he smiled to the regal maiden, "Your Cardinal Harpy, you must really be very good in ying the flute for having such an exquisite flute with you."

    This flute was actually a profound treasure and was forged from the heavenly relic so it was also a divine weapon as well.

    The regal maiden smiled faintly, "Indeed. I am good in ying the flute."

    When Xiang Li had heard this in Ji Yuan''s soul sea, she was immediately giggling: Big Brother, did you hear that? She is really good in ying the flute.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to Xiang Li: Not that flute¡­

    He quickly returned to check the long flute; he was soon blowing on it and it sounds terrible.

    Jun Qianfeng and Ur Muyuan were bothughing softly now when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    "This is called good in ying? A ve is indeed still a ve." Jun Qianfeng smirked coldly.

    As for the regal maiden, there was a small frown from her looks.

    But Ji Yuan ignored the mocking from Jun Qianfeng and continued to blow a few more times with the flute, producing terrible sounds each time.

    This only caused Jun Qianfeng tough even colder and there was soon a dark look that was upon the regal maiden.

    The regal maiden said slowly to Ji Yuan, "4444, that''s enough already¡­"

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan grinned, "I was only testing the sounds. After all, this flute isn''t mine and I am not quite ustomed to it yet. But I am ready now."

    And he started to blow at the flute and almost immediately, a beautiful and serene sound was being produced by Ji Yuan.

    This music was enticing and it was so mesmerizing that everyone else in the great hall of the Argos Pce had stopped what they were doing and hundreds of them were all looking in Ji Yuan''s direction.

    There were stunned looks from Jun Qianfeng and Ur Muyuan at the same time; they had never heard such beautiful and mesmerizing music before. This music stirred their emotionless hearts and they were staring nkly at Ji Yuan¡­

    The regal maiden blinked her eyes and she was gasping softly, "This is really very beautiful to listen to. I''ve never heard anything like this and I didn''t think that this can be done by using a flute¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually the most renowned poet in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Also, he was highly proficiency in music. As a poet that was also good in music, he could easily blend the music into poetrynguage that was equally beautiful. During his time in the Dream Trial, he had be extremely good in polishing his musical skills.

    That was why Ji Yuan was confident that he could y any musical instruments that were given to him.

    The regal maiden was smiling wryly now, "Good. He shall join my Cardinal Harpies then. I shall even consider making him a Harpy too."

    Jun Qianfeng was shocked, "Make him a Harpy?! No ve has ever be a Harpy before!"

    The regal maiden stared coldly at Jun Qianfeng, "This is my right. Does the Cardinal Confidant have the right to interfere with my decision?"

    Jun Qianfeng muttered, "No¡­"

    Ji Yuan saw that Jun Qianfeng seemed to be afraid of this regal maiden here and he supposed that it was because it could be that the Cardinal Harpy had a higher position in the hierarchy than the Cardinal Confidant.

    Seeing this as a good opportunity to escape from the clutches of this Jun Qianfeng as not to be a male harlot, Ji Yuan yed the flute to an even more mesmerizing level.

    The regal maiden was clearly pleased with Ji Yuan''s performance and did not interrupt him until he had finally finished.

    When Ji Yuan was done, he was grinning to the regal and beautiful maiden. "How is it? Did I pass your test?"

    He pretended to be so focused in ying the flute that he did not hear the exchanges that were between Jun Qianfeng and her.

    The regal maiden smiled with a pleased look, "This is the most excellent piece of music that I''ve ever heard in my life in fact. Naturally, you have passed the test. From now onward, you shall join me as part of my Cardinal Harpies¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng interrupted coldly all of a sudden, "4444! If you join her, you will surely regret it. Remember the Cardinal Priestess has ced you in my hands¡­"

    "We should allow this 4444 to decide, am I right?" The regal maiden smiled wryly as she interrupted her.

    Jun Qianfeng asked Ji Yuan again, "4444, do you choose to go with me or with the Cardinal Harpy?"

    The choice presented to Ji Yuan was clear and he immediately grinned, "I shall go with the Cardinal Harpy!"

    Jun Qianfeng appeared to be shocked with Ji Yuan''s decision as she stared angrily at him, "You will surely regret your choice! Don''te crying back to me when you''ve regret it!"

    Ji Yuan continued to grin, "I won''t."

    Anything was better than being a male harlot to the big size female abyssals.

 Chapter 1031 Millenium Jun Feitianâ€™s Threats

    <h4>Chapter 1031 Millenium Jun Feitian''s Threats</h4>

    The regal Cardinal Harpy smiled wryly to Ji Yuan, "Come, follow me."

    With that, she had walked away and seemingly away from the Argos Pce and leaving behind an upset Jun Qianfeng with Ur Muyuan.

    Ji Yuan hurried after her and when they had exited out of the Argos Pce, he asked her curiously. "Where are we going?"

    The regal Cardinal Harpy smiled at him, "Are you really a ve?"

    Ji Yuan stammered a little, "Of course I am a ve. I am descended from a ve and my whole family are ves too."

    The regal Cardinal Harpy smiled, "A ve won''t ask question like you do unless his master allows him to do so."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan, sooner orter, you will end up killing yourself by talking too much¡­

    But he quickly exined, "This is my first time in such a beautiful ce. So, I am a little anxious and curious too. Hahaha¡­"

    The regal Cardinal Harpy smiled, "We are going to my Cathedral of Songs. After all, I am the Cardinal Harpy of this pce. Therefore, you will be a ve of my Cathedral of Songs."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I see. Thanks for enlightening me¡­"

    Then he could not resist asking, "I am a little confused about the Cardinal titles in this ce. The Cardinal Confidant seems a little squeamish in front of you. Is it because you are ranked in a higher hierarchy in the Cardinal titles than her?"

    The regal and beautiful Cardinal Harpy smiled wryly, "Not exactly. In terms of our Cardinal hierarchy, we are equal."

    Ji Yuan was bewildered, "Then?"

    She giggled softly, "It''s no wonder why you are puzzled earlier. I''m an elder, that''s why and Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng is my junior. That''s why. Therefore, she has to be a little subservient to me."

    Ji Yuan nodded; this makes sense to him now.

    And he was thinking: This Cardinal Harpy here may be an elder but she looks friendly enough. Therefore she isn''t a spy for sure¡­

    Fairy Anyang interrupted his thoughts: My lord! Looks can be deceiving! Maybe she is faking it and you will suffer when you reach her pce. Remember the warnings of that Cardinal Confidant earlier!

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: I trust her more than that Cardinal Confidant.

    Xiang Li giggled: I trust both of them.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: Xiang Li, you trust any beautiful maidens. This is wrong and the wrong thinking!

    While Ji Yuan and the Cardinal Harpy were walking to another beautiful white pce on the teau, an angry bald man with his six entourage of winged helm cultivators were seen marching in their direction.

    Ji Yuan had naturally recognized him to be Jun Feitian and he was frowning why he was approaching in such an angry manner in his direction?

    But he was not worried. It was because the Cardinal Harpy seemed to have more authority over the Cardinal Confidant and the Cardinal Confidant was earlier able to suppress this Jun Feitian.

    Therefore, he did not believe that this Jun Feitian would dare to be insolent in front of the Cardinal Harpy.

    But to his surprise, Jun Feitian was shouting angrily. "Howe this ve is able to walk out of the Argos Pce? Why did you bring him out from there?!"

    His shouts stunned Ji Yuan who was not expecting that this Jun Feitian could behave so insolently in front of the Cardinal Harpy.

    Don''t tell me this Jun Feitian is also an elder? And he is only deferent to his elder sister earlier?

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled calmly, losing none of her beautiful regalness, "So it is Millenium Jun Feitian. This ve has a talent for music and I have the intention to bring him to my Cathedral of Songs. You have a problem with that?"

    Jun Feitian mocked angrily, "He is good in music? Or is it because of his beautiful face? Surrender him to me at once!"

    The Cardinal Harpy ceased her smiles and hummed coldly, "Surrender him to you so that you can whip him to the death? Dream on!"

    An enraged Jun Feitian raised his fists, "He is nothing but a mere ve. Her Holiness the Cardinal Priestess needs no distractions like a lowly human ve! Therefore, he must die today!"

    The Cardinal Harpy said coldly, "He is under my protection. Also, he is brought back by the Cardinal Priestess. Surely, you don''t want to displease the Cardinal Priestess or is it because you don''t care about it?"

    Jun Feitian ignored her and angrily shouted at Ji Yuan, "You there! You say you are good in ying the music? What music are you are capable of ying?"

    The Cardinal Harpy seized to speak for Ji Yuan with a wryly look, "He is good with blowing the flute."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Yeah. I am really good with blowing the flute."

    Xiang Li agreed too: Yeah! My big brother is really great with blowing the flute! He is the Master!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Jun Feitian stared angrily at Ji Yuan, "Good with blowing the flute?! I don''t believe!"

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled, "Believe it or not, it is up to you. He is mine now."

    Jun Feitian continued to ignore her and said angrily to Ji Yuan, "ve. If you don''te with me, you will surely regret this day. I don''t believe that you can hide all the time in the Cathedral of the Songs all the time and I don''t believe that the Cardinal Harpy will always be around. I can always kill you anywhere else and no one will care about it. After all, you are just a lowly ve!"

    Ji Yuan thought: This man has the greatest suspicion to be a spy¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly: A spy won''t be so obvious¡­

    But Ji Yuan replied instead, "I am a ve of the Cardinal Harpy now and she is free to dispose of me as she wishes. Unless it is her will, I can''te with you."

    The Cardinal Harpy was pleased with Ji Yuan''s reply and she chuckled softly, "Millenium Jun Feitian, you have heard him, right? Now, please leave quickly or don''t me me for being nasty with you in front of your guards."

    Jun Feitian appeared to be taken aback but he continued to stare coldly and angrily at Ji Yuan for a while before he said angrily, "You slowly ve. Watch your steps carefully!"

    With that, he had walked off angrily with his 6 guards.

    Ji Yuan simply shrugged his shoulders and did not care for his threats.

 Chapter 1032 Ji Yuan The Holy Harpy

    ?

    Ji Yuan soon followed the Cardinal Harpy into the Cathedral of the Songs.

    Inside the entrance of this pce which led to its main hall, he was quite startled to see that there were 3 groups of 3 beautiful maidens that were dded in ck scantily robe that revealed their ck panties; they were all ying the harps or singing hymns.

    Even though they were in 3 separated groups across the main halls but their music did not seem disconcerted and were instead perfectly harmonized with one another.

    All 9 of these singing and ying maidens were all at the fifth cultivation realm.

    A second reason why JI Yuan was startled was because in his Deste Celestial Realm, 5th realm cultivators are already golden celestials and they are too lofty to be ying for anyone. Rather, they are the masters of the lowly cultivators since they are also quite rare in the first ce.

    In his poor Five Heavens Peak, golden celestials were almost the sect leaders or senior elders of the celestial sect already.

    Also, inside this Cathedral of Songs, there were also dozens of ck robe maidens that immediately stood still with bowed heads to greet the regal Cardinal Harpy as she entered.

    After all, she was the highest authority in the Cathedral of the Songs and this pce belonged to her.

    Ji Yuan whispered to the Cardinal Harpy, "There are no men in this ce?"

    He could only see maidens and not any men in this ce.

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled wryly at his question, "You are the only exception in thousands of years."

    She soon walked to the middle of the main hall and her voice echoed to everyone, "Everyone, gather here. Today, we have a new initiate to our Cathedral of the Songs¡­"

    When she had said that, this aroused the interests of all the ck robe maidens in the ce which were all curiously looking at Ji Yuan.

    The Cardinal Harpy continued to say with a wryly smile, "Also, he isn''t an Ancient Old One like us but is human and also a ve but he is quite beautifully talented in music. Therefore, I will like to make him into a Harpy too."

    When she had announced this, the tens of maidens were all gasping with shock and were muttering among one another.

    "A male harpy?!"

    "He is merely a lowly ve¡­"

    "And he is also a human?"

    "He may look beautiful but his ears look terribly ugly on him¡­"

    "He doesn''t even have pointed ears¡­"

    "An uncircumcised man is going to be a Holy Harpy in the Cathedral of Songs?"

    "Many of us are unqualified to be a Harpy but he can be a Harpy?"

    "He is only at the second cultivation realm¡­ a lowly ve and cultivator too¡­"

    From the many mutterings, Ji Yuan saw that it seemed that many of the ck robed maidens thought that he was unqualified to be a Harpy or even join the Cathedral of the Songs.

    But what offended him most was that some of them even called him an ugly human because he had ears!

    He was thinking: What is wrong with having ears? You maidens also have ears, right? And pointed ears too and I didn''t think that you are all ugly¡­

    However the Cardinal Harpy ignored the grumblings and she turned to say to Ji Yuan, "In order to join the Cathedral of Songs as a Harpy, you must take the vow of poverty."

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "Vow of poverty?"

    The Cardinal Harpy began to raise her voice to say to Ji Yuan, "You must obey absolutely in all circumstances. You must agree to be a ve of Cathedral of the Songs. You have to leave all your assets to the Cathedral of the Songs. Your Cardinal Harpy has the right to distribute your assets as needed."

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish: No way I am going to give up my divine swords or my newfound wealth¡­

    But he grinned to the Cardinal Harpy, "I am just a lowly ve and I have no assets. I shall take this vow then¡­"

    Anyang weakly said to him in his soul sea: My lord, you are lying. This is bad for your cultivation¡­

    But Ji Yuan onlyughed: I am Ji Yuan and not 4444. The one taking this vow is 4444 and not me.

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    The Cardinal Harpy said serenely to Ji Yuan, "4444, since you are willing to take this vow to be a Harpy then you shall be a freed ve instead. So, what is your name?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "I have no name. I am only 4444. I only want to be a lowly ve forever and a ve to the Cathedral of the Songs. Didn''t you say that we have to be ve of the Cathedral of the Songs in order to join? Then I don''t want to be a freed ve. I want to be 4444 forever to show my loyalty to the Cathedral of the Songs."

    Ji Yuan''s words caused mutterings to spread among the numerous ck robed maidens in the main hall and it also caused the Cardinal Harpy to be looking quite pleased by Ji Yuan''s proimation.

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled, "Alright then 4444. Your wish shall be granted¡­"

    Then she extended her right hand forward and said slowly, "Now extend both of your hands onto my right hand and recite after me¡­"

    Ji Yuan eagerly held onto her hand and he was subtlety rubbing against her smooth hand.

    The Cardinal Harpy was suddenly looking quite startled when she could feel the electrify pulses from her right hand when Ji Yuan was touching her that extended to her entire body.

    But she quicklyposed herself to say with an uneasy look, "4444, do you agree to obey absolutely in all circumstances to the Cathedral of the Songs to be a willing ve. All your assets are to belong to the Cathedral of the Songs, including your body is to belong to the Cathedral of the Songs?"

    Ji Yuan thought with a grin: You even want my body?

    But he quickly grinned to say, "I do. I, 4444 am willing to take this vow to be a willing ve of the Cathedral of the Songs."

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled, "Good. From today onward, you shall be a respected Holy Harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs."

    Then she turned to say to the hundreds of ck robed maidens, "Quickly greet the new Holy Harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs. His name is¡­"

    Then she was frowning and she looked a little awkward, "Greet this Holy Harpy 4444."

    All the ck robed maidens were also looking awkward as they did not know what was the real name of this 4444 but they greeted him nevertheless, "May the Songs blessed Your Holy Harpy 4444¡­"

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know how prestige the rank of Harpy is or how many Harpies there are. But at this time, he is touching the silken hand of the Cardinal Harpy and he is astonished how good her hand felt in his hands.

    The Cardinal Harpy could actually feel that Ji Yuan was subtlety rubbing against her right hand as she was particrly sensitive to touches due to her years of ying with the musical instruments but she could only endure it for the time being¡­

 Chapter 1033 The 6 Cardinals

    <h4>Chapter 1033 The 6 Cardinals</h4>

    The Cardinal Harpy said to Ji Yuan after the simple ceremony was over and she had loosened her hand from Ji Yuan, "4444, you are now a Holy Harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs and also one of the six Holy Harpies. In the Cathedral of the Songs, you are now second only to me."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled; he was second in hierarchy of the Cathedral of the Songs?

    It was no wonder why the hundreds of ck robed beautiful maidens in this ce looked highly displeased with his appointment.

    The Cardinal Harpy turned to look at the hundreds of ck robed maidens and said, "Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang, please take Holy Harpy 4444 under your tutge first and brief him on the etiquettes and histories of our Cathedral of the Songs. If he has any other questions, please enlighten him as well. Also, bring him to his chamber. He can use the guest chamber first. After that, have him brought to me on the 6th watch of time."

    A ck robed and beautiful maiden had stepped forward and she quietly bowed her head to say, "Yes, Your Cardinal Harpy."

    JI Yuan had recognized her to be one of the nine maidens that were singing at the entrance earlier.

    Yue Wushuang said nonchntly to Ji Yuan, "Harpy 4444, please follow me to the guest chamber. There, I shall brief you on your new duties as a holy harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he began to follow her.

    He had actually wanted to be a ve in this ce but he had ended up bing a Holy Harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs. He wondered what would Xuan Qiaoqiao think when she has learnt about this?

    Well, it is better to be a Holy Harpy than a ve. And even a male ve harlot.

    Ji Yuan grinned to himself as he hastily followed Yue Wushuang along the magnificent hallways until they had reached an archway which led to arge chamber with a bed at the far end.

    Yue Wushuang coolly said to him, "This shall be your sleeping chamber from now on."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Maiden Yue Wushuang, howe I am sleeping in the guest chamber?"

    Yue Wushuang frowned, "Maiden? You ought to address me as Holy Harpy or Harpy, Harpy 4444."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Harpy Yue Wushuang then. Haha¡­"

    Yue Wushuang slowly nodded before she said, "You are a man and the only man in the entire Cathedral of the Songs so naturally you have to be here. Or are you thinking of sleeping in my quarter?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Of course I am not thinking about that."

    But secretly he was thinking: It actually isn''t a bad idea at all.

    Yue Wushuang took a look at him before asking him, "In order to be a Holy Harpy, you should be quite talented in ying the musical instruments. Which musical instruments are you good in ying?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am good in all the musical instruments."

    Yue Wushuang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "You don''t believe?"

    Yue Wushuang did not believe him and promptly briefed him on his new duties that were expected of him.

    This took several hours of exnations before Ji Yuan could finally have a chance to ask her on other matters.

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Our Cardinal Harpy, what is her name?"

    Yue Wushuang frowned, "Her personal name is Li Yifen but you should not be addressing her personal name at all. Keep this to yourself."

    Ji Yuan nodded and answered, "Alright then."

    Then he asked, "I am new here. How many Cardinals are there in this ce and what is the hierarchy of our Cardinal Harpy among the Cardinals?"

    Yue Wushuang coolly answered, "There are 6 Cardinals in the Nightfall Heights that assist our Holiness the Cardinal Priestess. They are the Cardinal Confidant, the Cardinal Harpy, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Tribune, the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Pope¡­"

    She paused for a while before continuing, "In theory, the 6 Cardinals are equaled but in actuality, the 3 most powerful Cardinals are the Cardinal Tribune that wields influence over the military affairs, the Cardinal Patriarch that wields influence over most of the elders and the affairs of our race and the Cardinal Pope that wields influences over the priestess and priests."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Then what about the Cardinal Confidant and the Cardinal Herald? What influences do they exercise?"

    Yue Wushuang smiled as she looked at Ji Yuan, "The Cardinal Confidant is naturally in charge of the ves too. You should have met her already. If not, it is the most strange. She is in charge of the Argos Pce."

    Ji Yuan remembered Jun Qianfeng and nodded, "Indeed. I have already met the Cardinal Confidant. She is in charge of the ves only?"

    Yue Wushuang chuckled softly, "Of course not. She is also in charge of the daily affairs of the Cardinal Priestess and her administration."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Oh? Then she must be really close to the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Yue Wushuang hummed, "Of course she is. Or else why would she be called the Cardinal Confidant?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did I join the wrong side already? But this Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng looks fierce and her brother Jun Feitian even threatens to kill me¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he asked, "What about the Cardinal Herald then?"

    Yue Wushuang answered him, "The Cardinal Herald is mainly in charge of passing down important messages and in charge of diplomacies to the outside world."

    Ji Yuan''s eyes had suddenly brightened; this would mean that the diplomacy mission that apanies the Cardinal Priestess are from the Cardinal Herald and the spy may well be from within the inner circles of the Cardinal Herald or even the Cardinal Herald.

    He had decided to investigate the Cardinal Herald next.

    So he asked, "I wonder what the pce name of the Cardinal Herald is?"

    Yue Wushuang answered coolly, "The Hermes Pce."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Thanks."

    Yue Wushuang looked at him curiously, "You may not be a ve now but you can''t go visiting the other pces even if you are a Holy Harpy. Do you get me? Stay within thepounds of the Cathedral of the Songs if you value your dear life or Millenium Jun Feitian will surely throw you into the dungeons or even kill you."

    Ji Yuan weakly replied, "I have actually already met this Millenium Jun Feitian. He seems to have a great deal of power in this ce. He belongs to the Cardinal Tribune?"

    Yue Wushuang nodded, "That''s right. In fact, he is second only to the Cardinal Tribune. In this ce, he has a bad reputation as a nasty man. You ought to steer clear of him even though he may be polite to our Cardinal Harpy."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes with a sheepish look; he had witnessed Jun Feitian shouting at the Cardinal Harpy earlier and he was not polite at all.

    Yue Wushuang asked Ji Yuan, "If you got no more questions then I shall bring you to see the Cardinal Harpy."

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Wait! I got 1 more question though."

    Yue Wushuang: ???

    Ji Yuan grinned and asked her, "What do you think of the marriage of the Cardinal Priestess to the Abyssal King Gong Magog?"

    Yue Wushuang looked quite startled by this question but she soon replied coldly, "An ugly toad lusting over the beautiful swam."

    Ji Yuan grinned and thought: She is definitely not a spy then since she isn''t supportive of this marriage.

    Anyang muttered weakly: My lord. Your spy search will take forever. Are you sure that you are able to find out who the spy soon?

    Ji Yuanughed: Of course! Didn''t we already have a clue? We are going to check on the Hermes Pce next. There is a high possibility that the spy may be in that ce.

    Anyang merely nodded with a sheepish look.

 Chapter 1034 Fighting over the Ownership of Ji Yuan

    <h4>Chapter 1034 Fighting over the Ownership of Ji Yuan</h4>

    But before Ji Yuan could sneak off to check on the Hermes Pce, he was to go with Yue Wushuang to look for the Cardinal Harpy first as it was almost time for them to meet her.

    The Cardinal Harpy had asked Yue Wushuang to bring Ji Yuan back on the 6th Watch of the time.

    This time round, Yue Wushuang had brought Ji Yuan to walk along a different direction from where they hade from.

    Ji Yuan did not mind especially when he was secretly ncing at the ck panties that Yue Wushuang was wearing and her butts that shed in front of him.

    Anyang weakly said to Ji Yuan: My lord, what are you looking at?

    Xiang Li giggled: Admiring the beautiful view?

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: I am merely analyzing my possible enemy. Maybe she is a spy. You''ll never know.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan ignored Anyang by asking Yue Wushuang, "Erm Holy Harpy Wushuang, where are we going? This isn''t the way where wee. You are not leading me to an ambush or what?"

    Yue Wushuang disyed an unhappy frowned, "Why should I ambush you? We are going to the audience hall of the Cardinal Harpy. It is where she usually holds her audiences with us. The main hall of the Cathedral of the Songs is usually used for only ceremonies and important announcements."

    Ji Yuan nodded; he was not exactly concerned where he was going but he had asked to distract himself from Anyang''sments.

    Soon Ji Yuan and Yue Wushuang had reached a smaller hallway and indeed, the Cardinal Harpy was already waiting for them in this smaller hallway.

    What surprised Ji Yuan further was that Xuan Qiaoqiao was also in the same audience hall.

    Yue Wushuang panicky bowed her head to greet, "Your Holiness¡­"

    And she quickly shrugged Ji Yuan to do the same as well.

    Ji Yuan quickly followed her example and bowed his head to greet the Cardinal Priestess, "Your Holiness."

    The Cardinal Harpy was smiling wryly to Ji Yuan and Yue Wushuang, "You are all finally here¡­"

    "You are finally here!" The Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao stared coldly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled when Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly staring coldly at him.

    Ji Yuan suddenly had a look of guilt on his face as he thought: Did I do something wrong?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said with great displeasure to Ji Yuan, "I have put you as a ve to the Cardinal Confidant but instead you have be a ve of the Cardinal Harpy. Come quickly with me and let the Cardinal Confidant determines your ve duties¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought miserably as he heard her talking: Qiaoqiao, do you know that your Cardinal Confidant wants me to be a male harlot to the abyssals? The reason why I join the Cardinal Harpy is to escape from my miserable fate. Why are you sending me back to the Cardinal Confidant?

    "He can''t," The Cardinal Harpy interrupted with smiles. "Holy Harpy 4444 has already taken the vow of my Cathedral of the Songs as a Holy Harpy. Therefore he is part of my inner circle now. Therefore he can''t go with you now. Also, he isn''t a ve but a noble of my Cardinal now."

    The Cardinal Priestess turned to look with displeasure at the regal and smiling Cardinal Harpy, "He is my personal ve and I''ve brought him to this ce. Regardless of his status, he muste with me to my Cardinal Cathedral."

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled, "I seem to remember that your Cardinal Cathedral is forbidden to the men, right? And 4444 isn''t a eunuch. But even if he is a eunuch, he is still a man so he can''t enter your Cardinal Cathedral."

    The Cardinal Priestess: ¡­

    Ji Yuan was beginning to sense that he seemed to have made the wrong decision.

    At the same time he was thinking: This Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen seems such a nice maiden. Is there a misunderstanding or something?

    The Cardinal Priestess huffed angrily when she had heard the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen bull-eying into her difficulties; indeed she could not bring Ji Yuan to the Cardinal Cathedral.

    She turned to asked Ji Yuan coldly, "Ji Yuan,e with me."

    There was a slight startled look when the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had heard the Cardinal Priestess calling Ji Yuan by his name; this ''Ji Yuan'' had told her and everyone in her Cathedral of the Songs that he had no name and he was called 4444.

    Ji Yuan was put into a tight spot now as he did not know the political factions in the Nightfall Heights very well.

    Also, if he were to follow the Cardinal Priestess back then everyone would surely know that he is on her side.

    His primary objective was to find the spy that was passing information to the court of the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    After thinking for a while, Ji Yuan decided to tell a lie.

    He pretended to be quite emotional as he said, "My new name is 4444 now. As for my old name, it is just given to you randomly. Do you really think that I want toe to the Nightfall Height with you? That is only because you have forced me toe with you! Now that I have found a good mistress in this ce where I can call home, do you think that I would still want to go with you so that I can be your ve and allow you to whip me like a poor ve again?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was quite startled to hear this from Ji Yuan; she had actuallye to save Ji Yuan from the Cardinal Harpy and she had not thought that Ji Yuan would suddenly say this to her. She thought that he may feel quite delighted to see her again or to cling upon her deliverance for him.

    But Xuan Qiaoqiao was also very smart and she was thinking: It isn''t that bad that Ji Yuan is now the Holy Harpy. This new identity may be easy for him to check the other cardinals for me¡­

    When Ji Yuan had changed tact and told a different story, she was quick to follow up with his story by pretending to be upset and she was even saying coldly to him. "How dare you disrespect me! Do you know that I am the Cardinal Priestess? Do you think that by hiding in this ce, I cannot touch you? Once my ve, always my ve! I don''t believe that you can stay hole in this ce forever!"

    Ji Yuan also realized that Xuan Qiaoqiao was pretending to y along with him and he pretended to cowered in fear behind Yue Wushuang.

    When Yue Wushuang saw Ji Yuan''s cowardice behavior, there was disdain from her eyes as she nced at him.

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen however looked pleased that Ji Yuan was not going to go back with the Cardinal Priestess and she was smiling wryly, "It seems that 4444 has made it clear that he won''t be going back to you. So please leave my Cathedral of the Songs."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly before she pretended to storm off angrily as she left behind some harsh words, "I shall be back!"

    When she had left, the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen heaved a soft sigh of relief before she smiled at Ji Yuan. "It seems that your rtionship with your former mistress isn''t that fantastic."

    Ji Yuan pretended to be still cowering behind Yue Wushuang and he was pretending to sigh fearfully, "I rather that I do not meet her in the first ce. You have no idea how miserable I was when I was in her hands."

    Yue Wushuang curiously looked at him, "Such as?"

    Ji Yuan was startled at Yue Wushuang was suddenly asking him for an example and this was something that he had not thought of yet.

    So he randomly cooked up ast minute story based on his experiences, "She immobilized me nakedly on the bed and touched me."

    When he had said that, both Yue Wushuang and the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen were both gasping with shock¡­

    Anyang was muttering weakly: My lord. Did you just tarnish the good reputation of Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao¡­

 Chapter 1035 A deadly toast to Ji Yuan

    <h4>Chapter 1035 A deadly toast to Ji Yuan</h4>

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen smiled to Ji Yuan, "I hope that you are not disturbed by all these. Sometimes Her Holiness the Holy Priestess can be quite unreasonable. As her elder, I have the duty to guide her."

    Ji Yuan nodded rather weakly as he was now drawing a line with Xuan Qiaoqiao in the eyes of the others. But it would also mean that it would be harder for them to cross each other path too.

    But then, he had the linking heart pendant that she had given him and he could use this tomunicate to her secretly.

    The regal Cardinal Harpy turned to smile at Yue Wushuang, "Holy Harpy Wushuang, thank you for your time to guide Holy Harpy 4444. You shall be given 1000 contribution points for your earnest effort. You are dismissed now."

    Yue Wushuang was delighted when she had heard that she had earned 1000 contribution points and she was smiling as she walked away.

    Ji Yuan could see her delightful smiles and he recalled Yue Wushuang telling him that his cardinal contribution points would be 15 every month since he was only a second realm cultivator. He would receive 30 cardinal contribution points every month if he advances to the third cultivation realm.

    The earned contribution point would actually double for every cultivation point until the fourth cultivation realm and triple from the fifth cultivation realm onward.

    Therefore, Yue Wushuang''s monthly cardinal contribution points were only 180.

    This 1000 contribution points was 6 months of her monthly stipend so it was no wonder why she looked so delightful.

    However for Ji Yuan, he did not intend to even stay for a month in this ce so the cardinal contribution points were pointless to him.

    The regal Cardinal Harpy turned back to smile at Ji Yuan, "As for you, you may stay here for a while. I have something to talk with you."

    "Oh?"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously as he looked at the Cardinal Harpy.

    "But first, let me toast to you." The regal Cardinal Harpy smiled as she walked over a table to fetch two goblets of red wine and passed one to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was grinning now as he was never one who would pass a good wine. One of these days, he may even be killed when he was drunk.

    The regal Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was also smiling when she saw the grins that were on Ji Yuan, "I ought to toast you for being a Holy Harpy today. Although I can''t present you with a handsome reward yet but a humble toast should do for the time being."

    Ji Yuanughed as he sipped from the goblet, "I don''t mind if you are able to toast me more of these wines¡­"

    The red wine was indeed very strong but Ji Yuan liked his wines strong.

    Somehow this red wine had a weirdly familiar feeling to Ji Yuan and it was as though he had sampled it before but at this moment, he could not ce a finger.

    The regal and beautiful Cardinal Harpy smiled gently to him, "I am afraid that this red wine may be a little too strong for you to take a second filling."

    While she was saying to Ji Yuan, she was also sipping from the goblet and by the time she had finished speaking, she had finished the red wine.

    Ji Yuan had also finished the red wine and he looked a little disappointed that there was no more; it was really a delicious good wine and he was further disappointed that he would get no more of this wine.

    He had actually wanted to protest that this red wine was not strong for him at all and he could drink 10 goblets of this red wine without even battling an eye.

    But before he could state his protest, the beautiful and regal Li Yifen had gently said to him. "Come follow me elsewhere to talk."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Aren''t we already in the audience hall? We can''t talk in this ce?

    He was actually thinking of sneaking away to go to the Hermes Pce and he was wondering if the Cardinal Harpy may be introducing the rest of the Holy Harpies or the ce to him.

    This would cost him his n for the night.

    But he did not have the chance to voice out his thoughts as the Cardinal Harpy had already walked to a hallway so what he could do now was just to follow her.

    After walking into many hallways and encountering dozens of ck robed maidens that were either walking along the hallway or were sentries, Ji Yuan walked to a hallway that had 8 ck robed maidens standing serenely in front of a pir each.

    But what startled him was that these 8 ck robed maidens were almost all at the fifth cultivation realm and there was even a seventh cultivation realm among them.

    The Cardinal Harpy simply walked past them nonchntly with Ji Yuan behind her.

    These 8 maidens were standing like stones and merely lowered their heads and did not greet her.

    Ji Yuan was curious and he asked after they had walked past them, "These maidens look a little different from the earlier maidens that we saw. They didn''t greet Your Cardinal at all."

    The regal Li Yifen chuckled softly, "They are all my personal escorts and we see each other multiple times every day. Therefore they don''t have to greet me when they see me. Don''t you agree that it will be quite a hassle if they greet me 100 times a day?"

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly, "True, true¡­"

    Soon they hade to a room and Ji Yuan saw that there were powerful array defenses in this ce.

    This room was also quite splendid and cozy as well.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes to ask, "This ce is?"

    Li Yifen smiled wryly, "This ce is my personal room, of course."

    Ji Yuan was startled and was blinking his eyes. "Your Cardinal''s personal room? Why are we here in this ce?"

    Li Yifen smiled as she gently looked at Ji Yuan, "Are you feeling hot now?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Come to think of it, he was indeed feeling hot now but drinking alcohol always made people feeling hot.

    Li Yifen continued to smile as she suddenly shook and dropped her outer skimpy robe.

    This stunned Ji Yuan and it only made him more hot because he could see that the regal and beautiful Cardinal Harpy was wearing a beautiful robe within that looked like a lingerie.

    She looked more beautiful when she was suddenly inhaling softly.

    All of a sudden, she muttered softly. "Do you desire me?"

    This was when Ji Yuan had suddenly realized why he had found the taste of the red wine that he had consumed to be so vaguely familiar.

    The problem was not with the red wine.

    It was actually the scent.

    And this type of special scent belonged to the Masculine Profound Pills that Ji Yuan had consumed previously and it took him quite a long time to get rid of its effect from him.

    And he was feeling hot and flustered now especially when a beautiful Li Yifen was now standing in front of him and asking him this question.

    A hot Ji Yuan could not help muttering, "I do desire you¡­"

 Chapter 1036 Spirit Divine Sword?!

    <h4>Chapter 1036 Spirit Divine Sword?!</h4>

    Ji Yuan was greatly astonished that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had actually taken the initiative to remove her outer garment robe and she had loosened it to the ground in front of him.

    The Cardinal Harpy was now outfitted in a lingerie robe that showed her beautiful figure and the outline of her boobs.

    Ji Yuan could also see that she had a tight waistband on her too.

    However, even her inner robe was too conservative to Ji Yuan now as he was used to seeing Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni in their more outrageous outfits.

    Li Yifen repeated softly, "4444, do you desire me?"

    This time round Ji Yuan did not reply to her but the fire in his eyes already answered for him as he stared at her.

    He had never thought that the regal and beautiful Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen would actually be inviting him to her room and had even asked her this question.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were astonished by this turn of event.

    Anyang was also appearing to be as perplexed as Ji Yuan.

    Li Yifen smiled to Ji Yuan, "Are you thinking that I have drugged your wine?"

    Actually, Ji Yuan was not thinking about that but when he was reminded about this, he immediately nod.

    The masculine profound pill may screw with his darker desires but as a high level cultivator, he could more or less try to suppress it as he was only using it to increase his libido. But of course, increasing his libido would also lead to an increase in desire too but that was another matter to talk about.

    Previously Ji Yuan had actually swallowed 5 masculine profound pills at one go and the effects of 5 masculine profound pills were naturally many times stronger than the red wine that he had taken earlier.

    But now, he was pretending to be a second realm cultivator and taking a masculine profound pill may lead to heighten desires and unintended consequences.

    However the masculine profound pill was actually not a drug that could make a man loses control of himself of his own sanity. Moreover, Ji Yuan knows that the red wine only contained a moderate amount of the effect of the masculine profound pill and it was also nowhere near to the real deal.

    If a second realm cultivator had no interest in a maiden after drinking from the red wine, he would still disy no desires or passions for the maiden. In short, the red wine was more like a tonic instead.

    Li Yifen exined to Ji Yuan with a soft sigh, "It isn''t a drug so you don''t have to worry about it. It is just a red with some extra spice in it."

    Ji Yuan pretended to nod, "I see."

    Li Yifen smiled, "Just now, you say you desire me? Do you mean it?"

    Ji Yuan pretended tough weakly, "I think¡­ it may be the effect of the red wine that I have drank earlier. It makes me think that you are a very desirable maiden."

    Li Yifen had a slight flush as she smiled, "Is that so? Maybe that is really from the bottom of your heart. Or maybe you are already drunk and that is why you have said so."

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly; drunk or not, he has actually thought that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen is actually a desirable and beautiful maiden.

    Xiang Li was now rebuking Ji Yuan inside his soul sea: Big Brother, she has dropped you so many hints already. Why don''t you pretend to be drunk or affected by the lusts in your heart to take the opportunity to conquer her instead?

    Anyang muttered weakly: Xiang Li, this may be a ploy. I suggest that our lord adopts a more cautious stance instead. She probably has a reason for doing so and I suggest that that we ask her about it first.

    Xiang Li disagreed: Bang first and then talkter. Or else Big Brother will be wasting such a golden opportunity. I mean this golden opportunity may note again soon if things got ugly. My suggestion is the better. Not only can we bang her but we can also find out the reason too.

    Ji Yuan chuckled: Xiang Li, I didn''t know you can be so brilliant. This is a good suggestion!

    When Xiang Li received Ji Yuan''s praises, she began to giggled nonstop.

    Anyang: ¡­

    She protested immediately: Once you are in the frying pan, things are not going to be this simple. It is better to ask for the reason first¡­

    But Ji Yuan ignored Anyang and he was grinning to the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, "Of course Your Cardinal is desirable. You are the most beautiful maiden that I''ve ever seen."

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen looked delighted with Ji Yuan''s answer and she was disying faint smiles as she asked, "Evenpared to the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly: Why are they alwaysparing with each other? It is totally meaningless. Everyone is beautiful in their own ways¡­

    But he put on a straight face to answer confidently, "Of course the Cardinal Harpy is the most beautiful. The Cardinal Priestess cannot even bepared to a tenth of your great astonishing beauty. You are exactly my type."

    Anyang warned Ji Yuan: If the Cardinal Harpy is in cahoots with Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao or if Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao is hiding here or viewing from this room, you will be in hot soup.

    Ji Yuan could not resist answering Anyang: Don''t jinx me. This won''t be happening.

    Anyang giggled: Yeah! Big Brother is right. This won''t happen at all!

    Ji Yuan returned his attention to the Cardinal Harpy, "But¡­ I am just a lowly ve and I am already contented to receive so much attention from Your Cardinal. I wonder why Your Cardinal brings me here to this room?"

    Even though Ji Yuan disagreed with Anyang but he had to ask her for her intention; this was Ji Yuan''s way. He did not want to die a headless ghost even though he had said so in his heart.

    Anyang and Xiang Li were like his heart demons and what he had said to them may not necessarily reflected his actual actions.

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen sighed softly, "I feel that you are not an ordinary ve. That is because your music truly touches my soul. Frankly speaking, I have never met anyone that can blow the flute as good as you. You may even be the greatest musician in the entire Dark Abyssal Realm. However, your cultivation realm is a little too low¡­ and you may not be able to live for too long. And music talents like you usually won''t live for too long as you may not show an interest in cultivating."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly; it was either music or cultivation.

    He was actually forced to pursue music inside the Dream Trial for thousands of years because he could not cultivate inside the ce since it was all a dream. However, he could nurture his music by fine tuning it through ying it constantly until he could reach the acme of perfection.

    After all, practice makes things perfect.

    The Cardinal Harpy said slowly and there was no indication if she was shy or not, "I may be a Cardinal and also a Cardinal Harpy but I am an also lonely widow maiden."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Your lord died?"

    The Cardinal Harpy nodded, "Some 2 thousand years ago."

    The Cardinal Harpy smiled, "Didn''t you say that your body belongs to my Cardinal Harpy and I am the Cardinal Harpy."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I did say that. Haha¡­"

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen continued slowly as she took a step toward Ji Yuan, "I can help you with your cultivation. I have a secret to share with you. I am the Nine Yin Divine Body. By dual cultivating with me, you will also reap the benefits of cultivation."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled that the Cardinal Harpy also had the same Nine Yin Divine Body as Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    It was no wonder why she was telling him why music and cultivation could not mix well.

    And she had subtlety offered Ji Yuan a solution to it.

    He could pursue his music while reaping the benefits of cultivation!

    If he was not wrong then what she was offering him now was to increase Ji Yuan''s cultivation level so that he could have an increase life span when his cultivation realm had increased. In return, he would need to satisfy her loneliness.

    Li Yifen thought that Ji Yuan was not dumb so she asked, "So, what do you think?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly; the problem was he was not a low level cultivator that needed this puny charity. However, it was not wrong to say that the Nine Yin Divine Body would still benefit his cultivation since he still had many cultivation aspects of his soul that had the room for improvements even though he is a False Immortal now.

    Seeing that Ji Yuan was hesitating, Li Yifen suddenly said. "I can also allow you to enter the Sanctuary of the Forbidden to retrieve a powerful spirit divine sword. How about that?"

    Ji Yuan was suddenly intrigued!

    The Sanctuary of the Forbidden?! What is this ce?

    A powerful spirit divine sword?

    By now, he had also noted there was a different between the Spiritas of the Spirit Divine Realm and the True Spiritas here; the Ancient Old Ones could actually wield divine weapons but their divine weapons seemed a little special.

    Spirit divine sword?

    Could it be that they could only wield spirit divine weapons instead of the typical divine weapons?

 Chapter 1037 Ji Yuan is a fake lowly cultivator

    <h4>Chapter 1037 Ji Yuan is a fake lowly cultivator</h4>

    Ji Yuan was moved by the thoughts of going to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden to obtain a spirit divine sword.

    At this moment, he hadpletely cast away his objective of finding the spy in the Hermes Pce.

    He asked, "The Sanctuary of the Forbidden? To obtain a powerful spirit divine sword? What is this ce?"

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen began to smile wryly, "Naturally you did not know about this ce. In the entire Nightfall Heights, only a few will actually know about this ce too. It is actually the forbidden ground of the Nightfall Heights and it lies deep in the dark recess underneath the Nightfall Heights. Without my guidance, it is impossible for you to even approach that ce."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled, "This ce is so secretive? But howe you are able to ess it?"

    Li Yifen smiled wryly, "That is because I am the Cardinal. In order to ess this ce, you need the si rings of two Cardinals. I can easily borrow one. Therefore, I am able to ess the Sanctuary of the Forbidden."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he thought: Two si rings? This means that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen is allied to another unknown Cardinal. And this information may be useful to the Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    He grinned, "I wonder where the second si ring is going toe from? I mean which Cardinal are you borrowing it from?"

    Li Yifen smiled wryly, "I am afraid that I can''t tell you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Maybe after I''ve banged you, you will tell me instead¡­

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "1 more question. Who built this Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Li Yifen was quiet for a moment before she briefly said, "The True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan was truly startled; he did not know that the True Devil God had visited this realm before. This was truly a surprise for him.

    Li Yifen had calmly walked in front of Ji Yuan now and he could see the beautiful outline of her full bust that shed across his eyes.

    When Li Yifen saw the pondering look on Ji Yuan, she had misunderstood that he was still weighting upon the benefits that she would be giving him, not knowing that Ji Yuan was thinking about the connection between the True Devil God and the Sanctuary of the Forbidden.

    "Don''t misunderstood me," she panicky said. "It is just that I appreciate your talent in music and think that you are someone that only appear once every era. I''ve never heard of music so beautiful and that is why I am asking you to be my secret lover. Also, I can offer you protection against the Cardinal Priestess. You seem to have offended her already. And also, from Millenium Jun Feitian. With me around, he won''t dare to bully you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was actually startled by the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen''s panicky exnations as he was thinking why the True Devil God was here.

    He was in fact thinking if the True Devil God had a fetish or something and that he had previously abducted the Ancient Old Ones from this realm here as his personal ves and then renaming them as the Spiritas for his pleasures.

    What am I thinking about?

    I am malingering my old self of having a mental sickness like this¡­

    Li Yifen''s words had returned Ji Yuan''s thoughts back to her.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Your Cardinal is just the type that I like¡­"

    Without waiting for the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen to respond, Ji Yuan had suddenly swept her off the ground and he was carrying her.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "The night is now ours."

    Yifen was quite startled when she was suddenly swept off from the ground and into Ji Yuan''s arms; how could her reaction be so slow that she could not even react? She is a high level cultivator while 4444 is only just a second realm cultivator?

    This isn''t possible, right?

    But before she could think further, Ji Yuan had already thrown her onto the bed and he was already trying to strip her impatiently. Also, he was kissing her passionately.

    Xiang Li was shouting in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big brother, this is the way to go!

    Anyang covered her face with her hands as she said: Why is that I got a bad feeling about this?

    Ji Yuan ignored Anyang and he was saying to the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, "The profound bindings on your robe is too tight. Haha¡­"

    Li Yifen was startled by Ji Yuan''s audacity but she quietly loosened the profound bonds of her robe and allowed him to freely reach inside into her robe.

    She had been thinking how she would put forth this proposal to 4444 and even then this would be an awkward thing because she was a noble maiden while 4444 was merely a ve; if he was too respectful to her then it would not be a good experience for her and she did not want to be the dominant one.

    She was soon flustered because this 4444 was taking the initiative in many areas and he did not seem to be shy that he was a lowly ve and it looked like he was actually an old hand; it was because Ji Yuan was fondling all her sensitive areas and he was disrobing himself.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he pulled the inner robe off her boobs to admire her naked mounted peaks, "You are so beautiful, especially when naked¡­"

    Li Yifen gasped at his firm masculine body and before she could take a good look, Ji Yuan was kissing her passionately.

    Soon, Ji Yuan had transformed into a man of the beast.

    Xiang Li was cheering Ji Yuan on: Way to go, Big Brother!

    Anyang on the other hand was shaking her head: This is not going to be good¡­

    Aura had suddenly emerged and asked: What is going on?

    Anyang quickly pushed Aura back into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea and said: Children are not allowed to see this.

    There was a weak protest from Aura as she got pushed down: Buttt¡­ I am already a million year old¡­

    Soon Li Yifen was embroiled passionately with Ji Yuan.

    Before she knows it, hours had passed and her bed was wet with both their lovemaking sweats.

    As she nked out from Ji Yuan''s constant thrusting and lovemaking poses, Ji Yuan was still screwing her from behind.

    There was only one word in her mind just before she had nked out and that this 4444 was for sure a fake low level cultivator. How could he not be tired?

    Li Yifen was now beginning to regret this and it was as though she had invited a ravenous wolf into her household¡­

 Chapter 1038 Ji Yuanâ€™s Getaway

    <h4>Chapter 1038 Ji Yuan''s Getaway</h4>

    After Li Yifen had copsed on the bed, Ji Yuan was left to admire her curvaceous white butt that faced him and his eyes were greedily looking between her legs that were lewdly wet.

    Ji Yuan had never thought that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen could be so slippery wet and full of lewd juices.

    He thought: So this is because of her Nine Yin Divine Body?

    Even though several hours had passed since their lovemaking session but Ji Yuan was not tired at all but he was feeling even more vigorous.

    And at the same time, he was still feeling quite horny because Li Yifen''s moans were so loud throughout their lovemaking session that he was greatly aroused.

    He was beginning to wonder if he were to copte with Xuan Qiaoqiao then would it be the same? After all, she also had the Nine Yin Divine Body.

    Although he still wanted to continue but when he saw that Li Yifen had slumbered into a deep sleep and no matter how much he had banged her, she was not moaning anymore so he had another thought.

    Why don''t he take the opportunity to explore the Hermes Pce since it is still dark?

    The Hermes Pce ordingly to Yue Wushuang was ruled by the Cardinal Herald who was in charge of diplomacy matters and messages.

    Therefore, he suppressed the masculine effects of the red wine and quickly put on his robe.

    A lesser man would easily be ovee by their lusts especially in thepany of such a great beauty like the naked Li Yifen in their presence but Ji Yuan was able to suppress his lusts with his sheer willpower.

    He suppressed his lusts by thinking: There is going to be another day. Worsee to worse, I just have to find Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni to satisfy my lusts¡­ or even Xuan Qiaoqiao¡­

    With that, he had quickly put on his pants and robe before sneaking off.

    Anyang weakly muttered to Xiang Li: Our lord has finally remembered his secret mission¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: This only takes a little time. After all, Big Brother has learnt of something new and that is the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. I wonder what spirit divine sword will he find there?

    Anyang muttered weakly: I got a bad feeling that our lord should not have banged the Cardinal Harpy. A very bad feeling.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: Why so?

    Anyang replied: This is my sixth instinct¡­

    Ji Yuan was naturally paying any attention to their talks as he was trying to put on his clothes hastily while making his getaway.

    He soon reached the main hallway and he once again saw the 8 maidens that were standing guard there.

    He pretended to walk calmly along the hallway until he was near them before he grinned, "Beautiful sisters, the Cardinal Harpy wishes to rest now and I am going to retire for the night too."

    When Ji Yuan had suddenly spoken to them, the 8 maidens that were standing guard along the hallway looked a little flustered; it was not only because Ji Yuan was beautiful looking but he was also praising them as beautiful sisters respectfully and this worked like a charm to them.

    Actually the 8 maidens were quite curious about Ji Yuan but they did not dare to ask the Cardinal Harpy.

    This was actually the very first time that the Cardinal Harpy had asked a man to her personal room and it had actuallysted for several hours.

    Also, there was no man in the Cathedral of the Songs for thousands of years too.

    They had also heard that Ji Yuan was just a lowly ve by the name of 4444 that the Cardinal Harpy had only met today and immediately she had appointed him as a Holy Harpy.

    Like the many maidens in the Cathedral of the Songs, at first they were not convinced by his appointment to be one of the six Holy Harpy which would rank them higher than them.

    But several hourster, they had suddenly received words from the other Ancient Old Ones that were presented at the Argos Pce when Ji Yuan was really good with ying the flute.

    Good was not the word but they were all mesmerized by his music.

    Many of the maidens from the Cathedral of the Songs could not believe this but soon the news that 4444 was so good in ying the flute began to spread among them.

    Naturally Yue Wushuang did not know about this as she was guiding Ji Yuan in the meantime.

    The only seventh realm maiden among the 8 maidens smiled to Ji Yuan and mustered the courage to ask, "4444, I just wonder what are you doing inside the personal room of our Cardinal?"

    Ji Yuan was actually taken aback by this question but his quick thinking helped him to answer this question, "s. As you know, I am merely a new Holy Harpy that is so blessed to be appointed by our Cardinal Harpy. Her Cardinal has admired my talent in music and therefore, we have exchanged our views on music."

    The seventh realm maiden nodded with a teasing smile, "s I see! But you are just merely exchanging your views on music there?"

    Ji Yuan smiled, "Of course not. We also yed the music too. Hahaha¡­"

    Another maiden could not resist asking, "You y the flute?"

    She had heard of Ji Yuan''s masterful y of the flute from the people at the Argos Pce earlier.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes briefly before he chuckled, "Yes, I have yed the flute for our Cardinal and she has also yed the flute for me. Hahaha¡­"

    He was thinking actually: Yeah, she has not only yed the flute for me but she has also swallowed my flute¡­

    But he quickly dismissed his own thoughts and said urgently, "Haha¡­ I got to go now. I have¡­ erm other duties for the night and I need to see to it."

    When he had said that, he was surprised to hear the 8 maidens echoing softly together. "Farewell, Your Holy Harpy."

    He had forgotten that he had a noble rank in the Cathedral of the Songs now.

    Does this mean that he could easily exit and enter the Cathedral of the Songs now without being stopped by anyone?

    With that in mind, a delightful Ji Yuan quickly began to search for an exit out of thergebyrinth of the Cathedral of the Songs.

    2. Ji Yuan going to the Hermes Pce next ^o^

 Chapter 1039 In the Hermes Palace (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1039 In the Hermes Pce (1)</h4>

    The Hermes Pce was located on another mountain peak of the Nightfall Mountains.

    Ji Yuan had actually found the ce after exiting the Cathedral of the Songs by boldly and shamelessly asking one of the ck robed maidens for directions.

    Although many of the ck robed maidens have not seen Ji Yuan but they were able to recognize him. It was because he was the only man and the only beautiful man in the Cathedral of the Songs so it was not difficult for the ck robed maidens to know who he was.

    All of them had heard that a beautiful man had been appointed the holy harpy on this day and his name was 4444.

    As the only man in the Cathedral of the Songs, Ji Yuan did not even need to hide his identity or to sneak out; he just walked out of the Cathedral of the Songs in an open manner after all, he was the holy harp and the second ranking among the harpies.

    The only person that could stop him was the Cardinal Harpy but he had banged her until she had cked out.

    That was why Ji Yuan had been so bold.

    When asked why he was looking for the entrance or at the entrance of the Cathedral of the Songs, hemely replied that he was trying to get himself familiarized with the surroundings.

    It wasme because it was night and a second realm cultivator could not be able to see in the darkness.

    But somehow, Ji Yuan was able to get through with thisme excuse.

    Most of the ck robed maidens were giggling when they had heard him but they did not stop them and this caused Ji Yuan to be a little bewildered.

    One of the ck robe maidens even giggled to him, "Alright, be careful and don''t be seen by anyone else."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    This caused Ji Yuan to be greatly perplexed!

    Even when he had reached the Hermes Pce, he was still feeling a little weird.

    He did not know that many of the ck robe maidens had assumed that he was just a lowly cultivator and therefore he had a biological need and therefore he was just trying to pee outside out of shyness.

    After all, the Cathedral of the Songs were all maidens and there was no man for a long time.

    But Ji Yuan had no time to ponder over this for now as he was fully focused on making his way to the Hermes Pce in the middle of the night.

    He saw that there were many patrols of the male Ancient Old Ones that were always patrolling around and scanning the surroundings with their divine senses.

    Even though this may be their own territories and were popted with numerous defensive arrays around but their security was notx at all.

    He spent like almost an hour outside the perimeter of the Hermes Pce and soon he was frowning to himself: Darn. The defensive arrays in this ce are a little too formidable¡­

    There was a sheepish look on his countenance.

    In the Deste Celestial Fraternity, it was quite impossible to stop Ji Yuan from bypassing the weak defensive arrays as he had plenty of experiences sneaking around.

    But these defensive arrays were too formidable for him to bypass for the time being and too profound for him to truly understand.

    He was the weakest MC in any cultivation stories in regards to his cultivation foundations and he was more like a fighter.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan: Big Brother, what are you doing and why aren''t you barging in yet?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned: Can''t you see that I am trying to use my divine sense to find an opening to sneak in without triggering the rm?

    Xiang Li giggled: Why don''t you say so? Arrays are divided into passive and active arrays. For passive arrays, I can help you to nullify it so you can sneak in."

    Anyang chuckled: I can help as well.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: Then why didn''t the two of you say so earlier?

    Anyang frowned: But you didn''t say what you are trying to do. We thought that you are observing the watches of the patrols at the perimeter.

    Ji Yuan said bitterly: While my eyes are looking at the timing of the watches, I am also using my divine sense to check the defensive arrays in this ce.

    Anyang said: My lord, you can enter the Hermes Pce now.

    Ji Yuan frowned: So fast?!

    Anyang giggled: I merely conceal your presence from the defensive arrays by creating a nullifying shielding for you. This nullifying shield blends your profound animus to be identical to the defensive arrays to make you invisible. But be warned, do not take out your divine swords or use your profound aura as this will invalidate the nullifying shielding.

    With that Anyang had closed her eyes to focus on blending Ji Yuan''s profound animus with the surrounding arrays.

    Ji Yuanughed: That''s my Anyang! Thank you!

    But Anyang could not reply now as she needed to focuspletely now; it was because there were numerous arrays in this ce and each one had a different profound signature so she needed to adjust Ji Yuan''s profound animus constantly.

    Xiang Li giggled: No need to thank me, Big Brother!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He asked weakly: I am thanking Anyang and not you. Xiang Li, did you even help me or not?

    Xiang Li giggled: I help to suggest the idea for Anyang and you.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: Thank you for this big help.

    Ji Yuan soon ignored Xiang Li and he was inside the Hermes Pce now.

    With his stealth and his sharp eyes, he shed from point to point in the numerous buildings of the Hermes Pce.

    The Hermes Pce was actually bigger than he had anticipated and it was 5 times bigger than the Cathedral of the Songs.

    It was no wonder why Yue Wushuang had told him that their Cardinal Harpy was not in the top 3 most influential Cardinals.

    There was actually nothing of interest in the Hermes Pce and he did not see any high level ancient old ones in thepounds and he was also a little lost.

    But all of a sudden, he spotted a familiar figure within the courtyard of one of the buildings and it was Millenium Jun Feitian!

    He was alone and without his usual escorts and he was talking quietly with an old man with pointed ears.

    This immediately attracted Ji Yuan''s attention and he was curious to know what they were talking about.

    And why should Jun Feitian be here sote in the night?

    He was not supposed to be member of the Cardinal Herald and was supposed to be a member of the Cardinal Tribune.

    With that, he had shed quietly in the shadows in their direction.

 Chapter 1040 In the Hermes Palace (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1040 In the Hermes Pce (2)</h4>

    Ji Yuan saw that the old man that was talking to Millenium Jun Feitian was dded in the same familiar garment of the Hermes Pce. Therefore, he concluded that this old man must be from the Cardinal Herald.

    Also, he could also see that this old man had a robust seventh cultivation realm and should be an upper or peak seven realm cultivator too.

    He thought: What are these two men doing in the middle of the night here?

    Ji Yuan got close enough to hear their conversations.

    At this moment, Jun Feitian was saying angrily. "Herald Ma Laide, you have heard of the news, right? That insolent ve actually bes a Holy Harpy and he has be an elder like the two of us."

    He was not afraid of raising his voice because there was an anti-sound barrier around them.

    However, he did not know that Anyang had already nullified the sound barrier for Ji Yuan.

    Prior to meeting Ji Yuan, Anyang had been spying on all the candidates of her trial even though there were sound barriers in their trial rooms. However, she was easily discovered by Xiang Li and got recruited by her to join Ji Yuan instead.

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had heard Millenium Jun Feitian: So I am an elder? He is an elder and this Herald Ma Laide is also an elder? Maybe they are the spies¡­

    Herald Ma Laide said calmly, "Elder or not, he is a mere low level cultivator. In a few short decades, he will soon be dust. Why do you want to bother with him? Our cultivation methods are unsuitable for human and we can easily block ess to his cultivation resources with our connections."

    Millenium Jun Feitian said angrily, "I can''t stand him even for a minute. He is so insolent and he dares to use the Cardinal Harpy as his shield. If he has the guts, I dare him to fight me to a life and death match!"

    When Ji Yuan heard him, he thought with a grin: I do have the guts but I am afraid that you will regret losing your life instead.

    Herald Ma Laide sighed softly, "He is merely a second realm cultivator while you are a seventh realm cultivator. Is there even a contest to this fight at all? You should be more tactical and value your reputation more."

    Millenium Jun Feitian hummed coldly, "Do you guys from the Cardinal Herald always speak so diplomatically? He is an elder and so am I. We are now equal in status. Don''t tell me that he wants to use his low level cultivation realm as his shield against me?"

    Herald Ma Laide sighed even heavily, "Up to you¡­"

    Then he said solemnly, "I''ve heard that the Cardinal Priestess is back today. We can''t afford to let her escape from the Nightfall Heights again. If our race is to survive then we must marry her off to the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Millenium Jun Feitian answered, "I have already triple the number of centurions and legions around her Cardinal Cathedral. It should be secure enough. Also, I have also warned my senior sister the Cardinal Confidant to pay more attention too lest the Cardinal Priestess decided to run away again."

    Herald Ma Laide slowly nodded, "I am still a little worried¡­"

    Millenium Jun Feitian quickly interrupted him and said, "But it seems that the Cardinal Priestess is more docile this time round and she is even willing to marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Herald Ma Laide looked a little startled, "Really? She was so resistant to the idea not long ago."

    "Well, she seems to have changed her mind now," Millenium Jun Feitian said solemnly.

    Herald Ma Laide slowly nodded, "Maybe the Cardinal Priestess is nning something?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian frowned all of a sudden, "Such as?"

    Herald Ma Laide said gravely, "I hope that she does not n to wrought the destruction of our race with her foolishness. We can''t win the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo."

    Millenium Jun Feitian pondered for a while and before long, he was frowning. "Don''t tell me that she is nning to deliver a foreign seed to cuckold the Abyssal King Gong Magog?"

    Herald Ma Laide slowly said, "That lowly man is handsome enough and I wonder why the Cardinal Priestess suddenly has an interest in a lowly ve and cultivator? Moreover, he is also a lowly human."

    Millenium Jun Feitian frowned, "Don''t tell me that she prefers a lowly human than a noble Abyssal?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why is that I feel that these two men are over imagining things? I didn''t even touch the Cardinal Priestess and they are weaving lies about me? And I am a lowly human? A lowly cultivator? And also, a lowly ve?

    Ji Yuan was now frowning unhappily when he had heard their conversations.

    Herald Ma Laide said slowly, "We need to preserve the chastity of our Cardinal Priestess at all costs or the Abyssal King Gong Magog will surely demolish our Nightfall Heights. The Abyssal King Gong Magog desires the Nine Yin Divine Body of our Cardinal Priestess and wishes to have her chastity intact to dual cultivate with her."

    Millenium Jun Feitian nodded, "I don''t disagree with that."

    Herald Ma Laide pondered for a while before he croaked in his old voice, "I think this 4444 should die. He is a randomizer."

    Millenium Jun Feitian was delighted when he had heard him, "Of course, he ought to die!"

    Herald Ma Laide smiled wryly, "Shall I leave his fate to you?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian patted his chest heartily, "Of course! Just leave his fate to me and I see that he will be dead within 3 days!"

    Herald Ma Laide smiled, "Just tell me when you are ready to act and I will help you to lure away the Cardinal Harpy from him."

    Millenium Jun Feitian was nowughing out loud now as he visualized the death of Ji Yuan under his hands.

    When Ji Yuan heard that the two men were now scheming against him, he felt a cold shiver down his spine.

    He muttered weakly to himself: You know, I am not deaf and can hear all your ns¡­

    But his attention was quickly on Herald Ma Laide; it was because he had mentioned about the Nine Yin Divine Body of the Cardinal Priestess and how the Abyssal King Gong Magog desired her body to dual cultivate with her.

    He thought: Howe he is able to know what the Abyssal King Gong Magog wants? Is he the spy?

 Chapter 1041 In the Hermes Palace (3)

    <h4>Chapter 1041 In the Hermes Pce (3)</h4>

    Just as Ji Yuan had thought that there was nothing interesting for him to loiter around, all of a sudden a pretty maiden had suddenly walked into the courtyard.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled to see that it was actually Yue Wushuang!

    The old man smiled when he saw her and he said to Millenium Jun Feitian, "I shall leave the two of you alone. Heehee¡­"

    With that, he had quickly exited the ce.

    Yue Wushuang did not look the least happy to see Millenium Jun Feitian and this showed on her countenance.

    Millenium Jun Feitian said to her, "I have heard that you have been guiding 4444 for almost the entire day."

    Yue Wushuang hummed coldly, "That''s right. Don''t tell me that this is also your business to meddle into the affairs of the Cardinal Harpy?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian smirked, "Others I don''t want to care but this lowly ve, I want to care. He is nothing but a motherfucker. If I see him once, I will beat him once. If I see him twice, I will beat him twice!"

    "How vicious you are." Yue Wushuang hummed. "Why don''t you just spare him? Do you really got nothing better to do? He is now our Holy Harpy and also an elder."

    Millenium Jun Feitianughed coldly, "With his low cultivation realm, he is fit to be a Holy Harpy?"

    Yue Wushuang said coldly, "I am also a low realm Holy Harpy. In our Cathedral of the Songs, the Holy Harpies are appointed by their music talents and not by their cultivation. Have you already forgotten about this?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian hummed even more coldly, "Others I do not care but this lowly ve of a human, I must take it into my affairs. He hase back with the Cardinal Priestess and he may have tainted our Cardinal Priestess."

    Yue Wushuang hummed, "You sound as if you are the noble one. You are worse than even him!"

    Millenium Jun Feitian said angrily, "Then I shall show you my worst!"

    Then he added coldly, "Do you want to strip yourself or you want me to strip you?"

    When he had said that, Ji Yuan was rmed and he was angry that this Millenium Jun Feitian was about to do a beastly act.

    However, just as Ji Yuan had tightened his fist and was about to appear to beat this Millenium Jun Feitian up, he was astonished to see Yue Wushuang was suddenly kissing Jun Feitian in quite a passionately manner.

    She was even giggling softly to him, "s! Why are you so upset about a lowly cultivator? You know that I am your maiden and I am on your side¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had heard her and he was thinking: Yue Wushuang is Millenium Jun Feitian''s maiden?! Is she a spy for the Jun Feitian and his Cardinal Tribune then? This matter is getting quiteplex¡­

    Just as he was pondering over this matter, he was even more startled to see that Millenium Jun Feitian had pushed Yue Wushuang to lean on the pavilion table and he was fondling all over her as they kissed passionately.

    Then Millenium Jun Feitian was loosening his belt hastily and he was dropping his pant while he was passionately lifting the ck short skirt that was covered by Yue Wushuang''s ck robe before pulling down her panties.

    Yue Wushuang was suddenly moaning aloud when there were several rapid body thrusting movements from Millenium Jun Feitian, "Ahhhh, Ahhhhhhhh!!!!"

    At the same time, Millenium Jun Feitian pulled apart the robe from Yue Wushuang to reveal her heaving boobs that were beneath her lingerie.

    With experienced hands, he quickly pulled down her lingerie to pop out her jade white breasts and he was squeezing her two beautiful white breasts tightly as they kissed passionately and made love.

    Ji Yuan did not want to stay any longer in this ce as this was their personal matters and it seemed to him that Yue Wushuang did not need any saving.

    So he began to move away.

    This startled Xiang Li who asked him: Big Brother, you are not watching?

    Ji Yuan frowned: I am not a peeping tom. Why should I stay?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: Maybe you can fish for more information while they are making love?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He angrily said: Stupid Xiang Li. They won''t be any more useful information. They are in their lovemaking act¡­

    All of a sudden he could hear Yue Wushuang saying to Millenium Jun Feitian amidst her passionately moaning, "Ahhh, why are you so good? Feitian¡­ do you really n on letting that Juan Xian''Er bing the Cardinal Priestess?"

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had suddenly caught wind of the name of Juan Xian''Er and he had immediately turned back.

    This caused Xiang Li to giggle aloud: See! What did I tell you! I am right!

    Millenium Jun Feitian did not stop his lovemaking acts but continued to thrust even more violently but he answered, "She is the only true bloodline of our race left and only she holds the key to open the inner sanctuary of the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Her blood is important to revive the glory of our race."

    Yue Wushuang moaned breathlessly, "Ahhhh¡­. So¡­ ahhhhh!!! So, you are going to take her as your secret consort too?"

    Millenium Jun Feitianughed, "Wushuang, you really know me best¡­ that''s right. By hook or by crook. I will deflower her and I shall use my senior sister''s position as the Cardinal Confidant to do so."

    Ji Yuan was immediately frowning now: Are you thinking of greening me?

    Actually, he was only flirting with Juan Xian''Er and even Xuan Qiaoqiao as there was no way for them to return to the Celestial Realm with them. Although technically, he had agreed to take them as his consorts when he was being threatened by Xuan Qiaoqiao that day but he was wise enough to know that Xuan Qiaoqiao was just trying to get him to help her while restoring some of her pride.

    The ploy seemed to grow even deeper which caused Ji Yuan to frown even more as he asked himself: Use the blood of Juan Xian''Er to enter the inner sanctuary? Is he thinking of using Juan Xian''Er as a blood sacrifice to achieve his own goals? What is this Millenium Jun Feitian doing?

 Chapter 1042 Ji Yuan is a honest cultivator

    <h4>Chapter 1042 Ji Yuan is a honest cultivator</h4>

    Just as Ji Yuan was thinking about the motivations of Millenium Jun Feitian, he was startled when another beautiful maiden had walked into the courtyard.

    And she was Ur Muyuan, who was seen with the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng while Ji Yuan was in the Argos Pce earlier in the day.

    She did not look the least surprise when she caught Millenium Jun Feitian and Yue Wushuang in their lovemaking acts.

    There were also no surprises from Millenium Jun Feitian and Yue Wushuang too.

    In fact, Millenium Jun Feitian merely said to her. "You arete."

    Ur Muyuan smiled wryly, "Indeed I amte. s, I didn''t want to bete but I was held up by my duties."

    As she walked to them, she was also loosening her outer robe and she was stripping herself naked as she pulled down her panties and tossed away her lingerie to a side.

    Under the moonlight, Ji Yuan could see that this naked Ur Muyuan really had a nice figure¡­

    Ur Muyuan giggled softly, "Sorry I amte and miss our appointment. May our future Cardinal Tribune please forgive this lowly maiden here¡­"

    Millenium Jun Feitian merelyughed as he pulled and pushed the naked Ur Muyuan on top of Yue Wushuang, "I am not yet the Cardinal Tribune. Hahaha¡­"

    Ur Muyuanughed softly, "Everyone knows that the Cardinal Tribune is nning for his ascension to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm soon and he can''t be bothered to have any distractions. You are already effective the Cardinal Tribune in all but name."

    Millenium Jun Feitianughed, "You little whore, you really know how to sweet talk to me. Today I am going to screw you and Whore Wushuang here to my heart''s contend."

    Yue Wushuang was giggling with Ur Muyuan when she had heard him and sheughed softly, "Then the two whores today shall service you tonight and let you have your way with us¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not want to stay further as watching them made him feel a little horny and moreover, he was still affected by the masculine effects of the red wine that he had earlier consumed.

    But at least, he now knows the rtionship or connection of some of the people here.

    So he had decided to leave the scene now.

    Xiang Li was startled as she asked him in his soul sea: Big Brother, you are leaving so soon? Don''t you want to wait and see further? Maybe you can even fish for more information?

    Ji Yuan said weakly: I have already seen and heard enough. I am leaving this ce now.

    Xiang Li protested immediately: What if this is not the end? What if there is a third maiden that would soon appear and you will miss it?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said to Xiang Li: There aren''t so many what ifs.

    With that, he had departed from the Hermes Pce and he was soon back to the familiar sight of the Cathedral of the Songs.

    Before long, he had returned to his ''personal room'' which was the guest chamber.

    Ji Yuan started to inspect the defensive arrays and asked Xiang Li and Anyang in his soul sea: Is our defensive arrays here secure?

    Anyang did not reply as she was exhausted from aiding Ji Yuan to nullify numerous defensive arrays earlier.

    Xiang Li inspected the arrays that were in the ce with her spirit divine sense before she giggled, "It looks secure."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly muttered: It is either it is secure or not. What do you mean by it looks secure.

    Xiang Li merely giggled: You never know for sure.

    Ji Yuan decided to ignore Xiang Li for now and he had taken out the heart link ne.

    The reason why he was asking if the defensive arrays in his room were secure or not was because he was now going to reach out to Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    "Maiden Qiaoqiao, are you there?" Ji Yuan asked as he activated the heart link ne.

    A soft but familiar voice could be heard on the other end and it was indeed the voice of the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    She said unhappily, "You have finally tried to message me. Now tell me, what is that you are trying to do by joining the camp of the Cardinal Harpy and bad mouthing me in front of the Cardinal Harpy?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he exined, "You abandoned me upon arrival at the Nightfall Heights. How the heck do I know what to do? Also, you have tasked me to your Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and do you know that she isn''t entirely too friendly to me? She even wants to assign me as a harlot ve to entertain the monstrous Abyssals¡­"

    "What? A male harlot ve? To entertain the Abyssals?" Xuan Qiaoqiaoughed jovially when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "This isn''t funny, you know. Luckily the Cardinal Harpyes along and I am able to prove my talent in music. Hence, I am able to join the Cathedral of the Songs as a Holy Harpy."

    "Yeah. I have already heard of this," Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed softly. "I actually did not know that you have such a talent in music. Why didn''t you tell me?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Why should I tell you?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said unhappily, "Have you forgotten that I am your future consort?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Not so if you are going to marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog soon."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan!!!" She raised her voice to say, "Do you know how to sweet talk to a maiden? Why did you have to spoilt the mood by mentioning that ursed Abyssal King Gong Magog?"

    Ji Yuan protested, "I am merely stating the fact, you know."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said unhappily, "You are supposed to be helping me to get rid of the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I am trying."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed heavily, "You are not even trying. You are only trying to find out who''s the mole is. Maybe you are only fooling me and is thinking of Juan Xian''Er. We should infiltrate the royal city instead and try to assassinate the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly at this suggestion; this n was something that Juan Xian''Er did not want to see through to it and he kinda agreed with her that this was too dangerous to attempt unless they had no other choice.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked him, "Well, surely you did not message me just to have a chat. This heart link ne can only be used 3 times. Don''t waste it or I don''t have another. Have you found the spy yet?"

    Ji Yuan quickly told her about what he had experienced and seen today.

    Naturally he had neglected to mention that he had banged the Cardinal Harpy tonight.

    When he had finished telling her his ounts, Xuan Qiaoqiao looked truly shocked.

    "You mean, Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang and Confidant Ur Muyuan are with Millenium Jun Feitian¡­ and he is also talking in secret with Herald Ma Laide?"

    She then weakly said, "So they n on recing me as the Cardinal Priestess and they intend for Juan Xian''Er to rece me¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "They say that Maiden Juan Xian''Er has a true bloodline. What does it mean? And why does her blood got to do with opening the inner sanctuary of the Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao sighed, "That is because only she has the true blood line while the rest of us are bastard bloodlines¡­"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Bastard bloodlines? What do you mean?"

    Just as he was about to ask further, there was a sudden knock on his door and the voice of the Cardinal Harpy could be heard calling for him, "4444, open the door or else I will barge in."

    Ji Yuan was startled that it was the actually the Cardinal Harpy.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao quickly lowered her voice to say to him, "Let''s talk another time."

    And she quickly ended their transmission.

    Ji Yuan quickly kept the heart link ne as he moved to open the door.

    Indeed, standing outside his room was the Cardinal Harpy and she looked none the pleased.

    She had already changed to a beautiful robe and her beautiful allure was now staring coldly at Ji Yuan, "4444! Or should I call you Ji Yuan? How dare you lie to me!"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "I lie to you? When did I lie to you? I am the most honest cultivator for thousands of miles around. My soul sea hides no falsehoods¡­"

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen hummed coldly as she interrupted him, "Honest cultivator?! You are really truly honest¡­"

 Chapter 1043 Wait! Hear my Explanations first!

    <h4>Chapter 1043 Wait! Hear my Exnations first!</h4>

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was now staring quite coldly at Ji Yuan because he was no low level cultivator.

    It was because after she had copted with Ji Yuan, she even had a mini breakthrough in her cultivation boundary. This should not have happened even though she had a Nine Yin Divine Body if her dual cultivation partner is a low level cultivator.

    But when she had suddenly received a cultivation breakthrough, she immediately knows that 4444 or Ji Yuan had a much stronger cultivation and he was only concealing his cultivation.

    What infuriated her was also the fact that she could not see through his real cultivation even though she was a peaked 7th realm infernal cultivator.

    And when she had confronted Ji Yuan, he had even replied there was no falsehood in his soul sea!

    Ji Yuan was actually dead serious when he was being confronted; it was true that his soul sea hid no falsehoods. His soul sea could not speak so it naturally could not lie.

    He was someone that could take out a sword and sworn by his sword. Then he could me the sword and discarded it.

    He did not take literally for real and literally did not mean anything to him.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan was frowning unhappily when he saw the beautiful and sensual Li Yifen in front of him. Even though he was feeling horny today and even more so when he saw Li Yifen but he was displeased that his conversations with Xuan Qiaoqiao had been interrupted.

    He had been nning to discuss what he had seen tonight with Xuan Qiaoqiao and to discuss a n with her. At the same time, he would also find out more about the things that he had heard from her such as the Sanctuary of the Forbidden and more about Juan Xian''Er.

    The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was also looking unhappily when she saw that Ji Yuan was unhappy to see her.

    She coldly said with her boobs heaving up and down in her loose robe, "After you have your fun from me, you think that you can run away?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Erm, no? I didn''t think this way."

    Li Yifen asked coldly, "Then why did you lie to me about your cultivation realm? And what exactly is your cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and said, "When did I lie to you about my cultivation realm?"

    Li Yifen was suddenly blinking her eyes too; it was true that Ji Yuan did not lie to her about his cultivation realm. He merely concealed his cultivation realm and misled her.

    She said slowly, "But it is a fact that you conceal your cultivation realm, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he said sheepishly, "The Cardinal Priestess tells me not to conceal my cultivation realm."

    He had conveniently shifted the me to Xuan Qiaoqiao now.

    Li Yifen was startled, "The Cardinal Priestess? Why would she?"

    Then she had suddenly realized that Ji Yuan had failed to answer her twice about her question about his cultivation realm and he seemed to be taking her questions elsewhere so she said firmly, "What is your real cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I am actually a great saint of the celestial. And a great saint is an upper seventh realm cultivator. I''ve used a mystic eye profound art to conceal my cultivation realm."

    Technically, he was not lying.

    Right?

    He was regarded by many as a great saint and the Empyrean realm of the 8th False Immortal level was coined by him.

    At this moment, he just did not want to tell the Cardinal Harpy that he was at the 8th False Immortal level as he was unsure if she was a friend or a foe. Even if they did have an intimate rtionship today but it was only because Ji Yuan was thinking of checking the Sanctuary of the Forbidden and he was not thinking straight after drinking the masculine wine.

    Both of them were merely making use of each other for their own goals.

    Li Yifen was shocked, "A human great saint?! Then you are from the outer world?"

    Ji Yuan answered her, "I am a celestial from the Celestial Realm."

    Li Yifen slowly regained herposure as she stared at Ji Yuan, "So, you are a celestial great saint then. How did you manage toe to the Dark Abyssal Realm?"

    Ji Yuan looked a little awkward as he realized that he had screwed up his mission on the very first day; if he told her that he was on a trial here then the scene may get very ugly and he may probably be as good as dead.

    After a quick pondering, he decided that he had to persuade her to be on his side first before telling her how he hade to her realm, regardless if she was a spy or not.

    He did not want to betray the hundreds or even thousands of celestials that were on trial in the Dark Abyssal Realm now, especially with his three brotherly friends at stake in this ce too.

    So, when he saw that Li Yifen was wearing a lingerie robe within her outer garment robe that exposed her low neck line and he could even see the outline of her busts, he had an idea immediately.

    Also, she looked more appealing in her this attire than earlier; if she reallyes to confront him, she would not have dressed as such.

    Therefore, Ji Yuan quickly pulled Li Yifen to him and he was suddenly holding her waist, "Wait! Hear my exnations first! Your Cardinal, pleasee inside first and we can have a chat together."

    Li Yifen was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly pulled her to him and before she could reply him, he was already kissing on her lips.

    This further startled her and even before she could protest, Ji Yuan was already pulling up the short outskirt of her robe to expose her panties and he was already rubbing against her exposed butt.

    She could not help release a soft moan when Ji Yuan was suddenly rubbing against her and his fingers were even deftly ying between her wet panties.

    Ji Yuan was delighted that Li Yifen was wet below and this meant that he got a chance to salvage the situation.

    He said sweetly to her as he pulled her inside his sleeping chamber, "Do you know that I have been waiting for you toe? Finally, you havee."

    Li Yifen was already flustered from Ji Yuan''s touches and further startled when she had heard him, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "I am already addicted to you. You must be wondering why I was gone earlier, right?"

    Li Yifen could feel that Ji Yuan was trying to reach into her panties and this time she had loosened the profound bonds to allow him to freely touched her.

    She was actually quite hurt when Ji Yuan had suddenly left without any exnations after having his fun from her and this was the real cause of her anger.

    Ji Yuan had also realized this mistake too and he knows that he had to quickly pacify her but he could not tell her that he was actually looking for a spy among the elders and that included her.

    He was thinking weakly to himself: I don''t understand the thought process of these maidens. Why can''t be they be more direct like the men? They want to hear about the exnation of a matter but instead they will ask of another matter first. Luckily I am quick thinking enough or else I would be screwed...

    Anyang weakly said to Xiang Li: Our lord is now like a chatan. I wonder what will he says to the Cardinal Harpy. I hope he don''t damage his soul sea further with his untruths or else he is just dooming his own cultivation. He may suffer a bacsh to his cultivation or even end up being a cripple in cultivation if this goes on.

    Xiang Li merely giggled: The problem with Big Brother is that he never cultivates and he won''t have this sort of bacsh problem.

    Anyang used her hands to cover her face awkwardly: That''s right. He never cultivates anything at all. If he never cultivates, how would he even get a bacsh¡­

    Xiang Li further pointed up: And with his cultivation body now, he has a 100% chance of ascending to the immortal realm.

    Anyang muttered weakly: I can''t believe this¡­ but seeing is believing¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: This is not the most important thing now. The most important thing now is Big Brother is going to do more bang, bang and we can both watch to our fulfillment. Today is our lucky day. We have so many shows. Heehee¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    She protested immediately: I am not like you, Xiang Li...

    But even though she had said that, she was peeping like Xiang Li.

 Chapter 1044 â€™Convincingâ€™ the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen

    <h4>Chapter 1044 ''Convincing'' the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen</h4>

    Ji Yuan and Li Yifen were soon rolling nakedly in the bed.

    The joy and the pleasure that Li Yifen had experienced was indescribable and she had orgasmed several times like a bursting pipe.

    One must know that while Ji Yuan was not trained officially in any dual cultivation profound arts but he had lost his first time to Little Princess and he was being forced to dual cultivate with her for more than a month before he had escaped.

    Therefore, he was actually quite well trained by Little Princess in the various stances of dual cultivations and taught by Little Princess to pleasure her.

    Li Yifen was actually a widow for more than a thousand years and she had been suppressing her thirst for a long time until she had met Ji Yuan.

    She had thought of dominating Ji Yuan and to make him her secret lover due to his talents in music and his beautiful looks.

    But in the end, she seemed to have be a lover of Ji Yuan instead and it was Ji Yuan that was dominating over her.

    For several hours, Li Yifen was sent to the heavens over and over again. This time though, she did not ck out like the first time though as she was now ustomed to Ji Yuan by now.

    Finally, the two of them copsed nakedly and slippery with their fluids onto the bed together, greatly exhausted and full of satisfaction.

    They had battled from night to dawn.

    Li Yifen smiled sweetly to Ji Yuan as she said to him, "So, your celestial name is Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Right, right." Ji Yuan chuckled softly.

    He had finally dominated over her and now that she had lost her coldness, it was fine to talk peacefully now.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Why can''t the maidens be more like the men. Why did they need to have two attitudes when they are happy and unhappy. The maidens can make any concessions when they are happy but when they are unhappy, even reasonable concessions are not alright¡­

    Xiang Li protested when she had heard Ji Yuan: No, Big Brother. I am always consistent and have no attitudes!

    Ji Yuanughed weakly to Xiang Li: My Xiang Li is an exception.

    Xiang Li giggled when she was being praised by Ji Yuan.

    Anyang weakly said to Xiang Li: You know. This is actually not a praise¡­

    Xiang Li: ???

    Anyang refused to tell Xiang Li more: Never mind¡­

    Ji Yuan had returned his attention to Li Yifen and he was saying, "Your Cardinal, you can take me to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden when you are free?"

    It was time to make her agree to this when she was in a good mood.

    Even though the Cardinal Harpy had agreed to take Ji Yuan to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, Ji Yuan knows that these maidens are all so good in lip services that they need to be reminded constantly.

    It is the same when a maiden wants to hear a man telling her that he loves her multiple times and all the time.

    Over time, many of the men like Ji Yuan have also learnt lip services too and they have also not put to heart what they are saying.

    Li Yifen nodded, "I shall bring you to the ce today to pick your Spirit Divine Sword then."

    Ji Yuan chuckled with great delight, "That is only too great!"

    Li Yifen smiled and said sweetly to Ji Yuan, "In private, you don''t have to call me Your Cardinal any longer. My maiden name is Li Yifen and I shall call you Ji Yuan too. Alright?"

    Ji Yuan pretended not to know her name as he muttered, "Li Yifen¡­ what a beautiful name. Not only is your name the most beautiful name that I''ve ever heard but my Yifen is also the most beautiful maiden that I''ve ever met too."

    When Li Yifen had heard Ji Yuan, she was flushing hotly again and muttered, "Thank you¡­"

    Anyang warned Ji Yuan: Don''t get caught in your web of deceitster¡­

    Ji Yuan had heard Anyang and he could resist protesting: It isn''t my fault that they all want to be the most beautiful maiden. So, I am merely doing them a favor.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Smart Big Brother!

    Anyang stared at Xiang Li: I am beginning to think that you are of no help to our lord.

    Xiang Li giggled: Do I need to be useful? I did tell Big Brother that I ampletely useless. Heehee¡­

    Ji Yuanughed aloud: That''s right. Xiang Li is my useless spirit fairy, haha.

    Anyang: ¡­

    She muttered weakly: And the two of you can take pride in this¡­

    Ji Yuan did not need to have a friend to be useful to him in order to be his friend. He had plenty of useless friends and brothers as well.

    But he is someone that actually valued his friends no matter how useless they are.

    And Xiang Li is his best friend.

    Li Yifen was now saying thoughtfully to Ji Yuan, "You say that you are taking a trial and you have identallye to this ce?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right. That is how I am here. When I had stumbled into your realm, I had cked out and when I had regained my consciousness, I found myself naked and captured by the Cardinal Priestess."

    Li Yifen nodded and asked again, "Other than touching you, did she do anything funny to you?"

    Ji Yuan had told her bits about what had happened during their furious lovemaking sessions and now Yifen was trying to piece everything together and to double confirmed again.

    Ji Yuan pretended to say bitterly, "Other than abusing me as a lowly ve, she did not do anything to me."

    Li Yifen heaved a soft sigh of relief when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Just as she was about to ask more, there was a sudden rm that ran off in the room and a maiden''s voice could be heard announcing panicky, "Everyone, up to arms immediately! The abyssal lords are attacking us and they are already on the fridge of the Nightfall Mountains¡­ all Cardinals and elders are to quickly gather immediately¡­ this is not a drill¡­"

    Li Yifen was rmed and she quickly jumped nakedly off the bed, "I need to go now. I hope that it is not a fight but a diplomatic mission instead¡­"

    Then she had suddenly remembered something and turned to Ji Yuan, "Although you need toe with me but stay far behind. If a fight breaks out, I may not be able to protect you. You have no idea how powerful the abyssal lords are. They are stronger than the most powerful celestials."

    Ji Yuan did not look the least bit anxious when he had heard her and instead, he was admiring Li Yifen''s naked body in full view of him.

 Chapter 1045 Super Mobile Fortress

    <h4>Chapter 1045 Super Mobile Fortress</h4>

    A gargantuan monster that resembled a gigantic tortoise was seen moving slowly toward the Nightfall Heights.

    This gigantic tortoise was not only a 10th rank profound epic beast but was also freaking gigantic!

    Just exactly how big it was?

    It was as huge as half the height of the Nightfall Heights Mountains and on top of its back, there was even a mountain with a citadel on it. Combined with the height of the mountain on its back, its height was now as tall as the formidable Nightfall Heights Mountains!

    It resembled more like a super mobile fortress!

    Thousands of Ancient Old Ones had already gathered at the edge of the Nightfall Heights and they were all looking quite grim; it was because the profound defenses of their formidable arrays were useless against this gigantic 10th rank epic profound beast.

    It was a freaking 10th rank epic profound beast and their arrays'' profound attacks would not be able to hurt it!

    When Ji Yuan had arrived with the Cardinal Harpy, he saw that the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, the Cardinal Confidant, Confidant Ur Muyuan, Herald Ma Laide and Millenium Jun Feitian were already there.

    Li Yifen told Ji Yuan and the rest of her hundreds of retinues, "The rest of you shall remain here in this ce. Those who are at the 6th and 7th realm cultivation follow me in front."

    With that, she had departed with a dozen ck robed maidens to join the Cardinal Priestess.

    It seemed to Ji Yuan that the Cardinal Harpy did not have too many high level cultivators in her Cathedral of the Songs.

    Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang was standing next to Ji Yuan and she looked quite nervous but Ji Yuan knows that she was actually anxious for Jun Feitian and not for their Cardinal Harpy.

    Ji Yuan asked Yue Wushuang, "The other Cardinals are also there too?"

    The reason why he had asked was because he did not recognize them but he could tell that there were numerous high level cultivators in front of them.

    Thousands of weaker cultivators like Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang were actually standing behind as they were too weak to be of any help if a fight really break out.

    Yue Wushuang answered Ji Yuan, "All the Cardinals are here except for the Cardinal Tribune as he is still in seclusion. Millenium Jun Feitian is now in charge of the affairs of the tribunes¡­"

    Then she pointed at the direction where the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Pope were, "That is the Cardinal Herald and his Heralds. That old man over there is the Cardinal Patriarch and his Patriarchs. And that colorful old man over there in white and red is the Cardinal Pope and his Apostles."

    Ji Yuan nodded even as he extended his hearings to listen in to their conversations.

    All the Cardinals that were presented were now talking panicky to the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    The Cardinal Pope was saying, "I wonder why the Abyssal lords areing today? And it seems to me that they areing with an invasion force this time."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said unhappily as she turned to look at Millenium Jun Feitian instead, "Activate our attack arrays and st them away."

    When she had said that, Millenium Jun Feitian and the others merely returned a sheepish look and some were even sighing heavily.

    Millenium Jun Feitian said solemnly, "I doubt that we can damage that approaching monster and it will be a waste of our blood crystals. Also, if we attack them first then it will be a deration of war and this will give them a perfect excuse to attack us."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked angrily, "So, are we waiting for them to approach our sacred Nightfall Heights without doing anything?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian answered weakly, "We don''t know their intentions yet. It isn''t wise to attack them first¡­"

    Then he looked in the direction of Herald Ma Laide and the Cardinal Herald, "What did our envoys have to say about this?"

    The Cardinal Herald solemnly said, "I have sent 3 envoys to greet them but I can''t get in touch with any of them now."

    When the gargantuan profound beast was seen a hundred miles away, the first thing that the Cardinal Herald had done was to send 3 flying envoys to enquiry about the approaching abyssals'' intentions.

    The Cardinal Patriarch said anxiously, "In short, we don''t know what happens to them or the intentions of the Abyssal King Gong Magog?"

    The Cardinal Herald answered weakly, "We can only wait for them to arrive first or we can send more envoys."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said angrily, "The abyssals from the Nefarious Blood Kingdom are just too cunning. They made use of the fact that they cannot fly and did not have any flying messengers to retain our envoys. Then we can only wait or attack them while they move their super mobile fortress near to us. We don''t know their numbers and there is also a array that shields their numbers. So, are we sitting ducks or what?"

    The Cardinal Pope said weakly, "Maybe we are overthinking. Your marriage to the Abyssal King Gong Magog is almost finalizing. Why should the Abyssal King Gong Magog want to risk a possible alliance between our two abyssal races at this point of time? If he marries you, then he can dere himself the Abyssal Emperor."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "This, you have to ask him yourself."

    The Cardinal Patriarch said, "I have to agree with the Cardinal Pope. Maybe this is just a friendly visit¡­"

    "I agree too," the Cardinal Herald said too.

    Xian Qiaoqiao turned to stare at Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen and Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, "The 2 of you also thinks the same too?"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng weakly said, "We should not be overthinking things and not be rash."

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen sighed softly, "No doubt that they do not have any good intentions but it isn''t toote to fightter. Maybe we should try to find out what they want first."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was exasperated, "All of you! You are all pacifists! Are you thinking of sacrificing me so that you can all remain in power?! I am at least at the False Immortal level. Why should we be afraid of them?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian frowned, "Your False Immortal level means nothing to the peaked abyssals. Some of the stronger ones can metamorphosis into an abyssal fiend and they are equivalent to a 8th realm cultivation. In terms of this strength alone, our race is far inferior!"

    The Cardinal Pope said to Millenium Jun Feitian, "Millenium Jun Feitian, you are not yet a Cardinal Tribune. Do not be rude to our Cardinal Priestess¡­"

    Then he turned to say to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "But I have to agree with Millenium Jun Feitian on this. If we have not lost 3 False Immortal Patriarchs in the past year alone, we may still be able to contest with them. But now, we have lost our formidable patriarch elders¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had heard of this story too many times; that was the reason why the Cardinal Pope and the others were forcing her to marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    So she ignored him and said to the Cardinal Patriarch, "You are also a False Immortal and together, we have almost 500 7th realm cultivators here. Surely, we can mount a fight and teach them a lesson?"

    The Cardinal Patriarch said weakly, "I am merely a half-step False Immortal and an old man¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    She turned to the others to say coldly, "If we don''t attack them now, we will never have the chance to do soter. Do you want to regret your actionster?"

    But all the others were shaking their heads and refusing to endorse her.

    When Ji Yuan had heard their conversations, he was also shaking his head.

    But it was not because he did not agree with Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    It was more like he had finally understood why Juan Xian''Er did not want to discuss her ns with Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    It was because Xuan Qiaoqiao waspletely tactless and was too stubborn. This would only alienate her in power y.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he looked for an opportunity to sneak away¡­

 Chapter 1046 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim

    <h4>Chapter 1046 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim</h4>

    The gargantuan tortoise monster was soon at the fringe of the Nightfall Heights Mountains and everyone could see therge citadel that was on its mountain back.

    In front of this citadel, there was a tform and about one hundred great abyssals could be seen; they were mostly between the 5th to the 7th realm cultivation.

    And behind them were 5000 abyssals that were at the 4th cultivation realm.

    But what shocked Xuan Qiaoqiao and her inner circle was not the sight of the great abyssals but there were a great abyssal that had suddenly appeared and were floating above the tform now.

    In order to hover and float, this great abyssal had to be at the 8th cultivation realm!

    And this great abyssal was not an ordinal great abyssal but an immortal great abyssal!

    And he was a True Immortal and not just any False Immortal!

    This immortal great abyssal had a strong robust 8th cultivation realm and was a peaked 8th immortal abyssal.

    His presence stunned Xuan Qiaoqiao and all the others that were presented.

    In fact, it even drowned the fighting spirits of many of the Ancient Old Ones with this martial show of power.

    The Cardinal Herald was the first to ask cautiously by disying his loud profound voice that could be heard for miles around, "May I know what brings our honorable guests from the Nefarious Blood Kingdom here? And may we know the exalted name of this Immortal Abyssal here? Are you¡­ the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo?"

    The immortal abyssal in the middle smirked coldly, "I am not the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo but merely his apprentice. You may address me as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim."

    As he said so, his suppressing aura was locked on Xuan Qiaoqiao and he was now smiling, "You must be the Cardinal Priestess. You are indeed a peerless great beauty and fitting to be given to the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was upset when she had heard this.

    Given? Fitting to be given? Is she amodity?!

    But she suppressed her anger to smile faintly, "Indeed I am. And what brings you here to our ce? And do you know that this is the sacred mountain of the Abyssals and no one should be allowed toe here without permission?"

    She could not resist putting forth a warning even though it was not wise for her to do so.

    Her nature was simply too blunt.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilimughed nonstop, "The rules of your realm do not apply to an immortal like me."

    Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao said coldly, "I don''t mind if you don''t know the rules ande alone. But¡­"

    Then she pointed at the thousands of abyssals that were at the opposing side, "Don''t tell me these abyssals do not know about the sacred traditions of our realm?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian, the Cardinals and many of the Ancient Old Ones had turned quite palely when they had heard their Cardinal Priestess questioning an immortal; it was a confrontation that they could ill-afford and they wished to settle things amicable at the very least.

    So they did not expect for the Cardinal Priestess to confront the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim.

    But at the same time, it was also ill-advised for them to interrupt their Cardinal Priestess publicly, especially in the presence of the other abyssals; they did not want their Cardinal Priestess to lose her prestige and she was their trump card to be used against the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim began tough jovially and hisughter began to ripple throughout the mountains, sending many of the weaker cultivators to move backward and many of the cultivators of the Ancient Old Ones were even forced to raise their profound defenses to shield themselves from harm lest their internal organs would be damaged.

    "Ancient traditions? From now onward, there will be no more ancient traditions! Under the holy cleansing of the Holy Communism, all old traditions must be obliterated and only the Holy Communism shall be the only true religion of the abyssals!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    She coldly said, "The Ancient Old Ones adhere to our old traditions and not your Holy Communism¡­"

    "This is not for you to decide," the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim coldly interrupted her. "You shall be the Holy Priestess of our Holy Communism and an example to the entire Dark Abyssal Realm."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "What if I were to refuse your kind offer?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim smirked coldly, "Then I shall have to destroy your sacred mountain and to cleanse your old traditions today."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    The Cardinal Patriarch had stepped forward to say hastily, "Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim. It is our honor to have you here today. Our Cardinal Priestess did not mean to offend you¡­"

    "He wants to destroy our sacred mountain and we are telling him that it is our honor to have him here today?" The Cardinal Priestess interrupted with great disbelief.

    But the Cardinal Patriarch ignored herments and quickly continued to talk to the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim, "But we still do not know the reasons for your visit today and you didn''t send an envoy too. Surely you don''t have to send an army, right? We can always talk things peacefully."

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim smirked coldly, "It is simple actually. I am actually here to invite the Cardinal Priestess to the royal city and she can prepare for the royal wedding there."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said coldly, "Have you forgotten that we still have a diplomatic mission in your royal city? The terms of negotiations are still not finalized yet and you have already decided that I will marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog? Is this the most ridiculous thing that I''ve ever heard?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilimughed sadistically, "I remembered that diplomat group. There was a peerless maiden envoy in that diplomat group too. Her name is Juan Xian''Er. I remembered her juicy screams when she was stripped naked by me and she had now be my pleasure whore. Hahahahaha¡­."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and many of the Ancient Old Ones were shocked when they had heard him!!!

    He had actually done such a beastly act to Juan Xian''Er?!!!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had turned pale immediately and her eyes had turned bleary as she copsed two steps backward and she had to be helped by the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng.

    She felt that it was her fault that she had asked Juan Xian''Er to head the diplomat group and she had left her in the royal city. This would not have happened if she did not leave her there¡­

    The most shocked was of course Ji Yuan when he had heard this.

    And he had suddenly appeared in the heaven above wearing a mask over him and he had disyed his Empyrean False Immortal cultivation realm.

    And he was extremely angry and his profound voice boomed loudly, sweeping away the weaker cultivators to the ground. "What did you do to Juan Xian''Er?!!! How dare you!!!"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim frowned with amusement as he looked at the masked man that had suddenly appeared, "A False Immortal? What a joke. Do you think that a False Immortal means anything in front of me?"

 Chapter 1047 The Great Patriarch Sword Saint!

    <h4>Chapter 1047 The Great Patriarch Sword Saint!</h4>

    When a masked man had suddenly appeared in the heaven above the Nightfall Heights, most of the Ancient Old Ones were quite startled for several reasons.

    Firstly, it was because this masked man was at the 8th False Immortal cultivation realm and only an Ancient Old One could ever attain to the False Immortal level; none of the other abyssal races were able to do so as this was only unique to the cultivation technique of the Ancient Old Ones.

    Secondly, the Ancient Old Ones were only left with 3 8th False Immortal cultivators and they were the Cardinal Priestess, the Cardinal Patriarch and Juan Xian''Er.

    And Juan Xian''Er was heard to be captured by the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim.

    So, none of the Ancient Old Ones know exactly who this masked man was.

    However, for Xuan Qiaoqiao, she was able to recognize Ji Yuan''s profound animus as they had fought some dangers together while they were inside the Great Oracle Gate.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little touched as she muttered to herself: Ji Yuan is angry because he did not want to see me being sent away to the royal city of the Abyssal King Gong Magog?

    She did not know that Ji Yuan was not thinking about her at this moment and he was thinking about Juan Xian''Er instead.

    This masked man was furious and this showed in his furious powerful aura and he was also shouting, "How dare youe to the Nightfall Heights. Today, I shall rip you apart!"

    No one green him and shall survive the day!

    Even Xiang Li was furious when she had heard the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim and she was shouting furiously to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, today we will kill this immortal abyssal together!

    Anyang had never seen Xiang Li so furious before.

    Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim smirked coldly as he stared at the masked man, "You will surely lose because you have lost your cool. And who are you?"

    Ji Yuan answered him angrily, "Who am I is not important! Today, I shall make you pay the price of offending me!!!"

    When he had said that, not only the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim wasughing jovially and so were the numerous abyssals that were on his side.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had suddenly disyed a wicked saint-step divine sword that was crimson blood in color.

    And he was grinning coldly, "No one speaks bold words in front of me and they shall pay the same price as well."

    When he had disyed his saint-step divine sword, the thousands of Ancient Old Ones were all gulping with profound fear; indeed, this was a most powerful divine weapon that was being disyed!

    Ji Yuan had brandished Xiang Li, his emperor-step divine sword in front of him too and there were two divine halos that were shimmering on his divine sword.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was startled, "Emperor divine sword?! And you have also divine harmonized with your sword?! Perfect harmony¡­"

    One divine halo is hard enough to achieve and it mean that the cultivator has divine harmonized with his divine sword.

    But two divine halo is extremely difficult to achieve and it means that the cultivator has a perfect harmony with his sword.

    Not only was he greatly startled, all the onlookers were also startled as well.

    An emperor-step divine sword is actually an immortal divine sword. Even in the immortal realms, it is extremely rare as it can only be birthed or cultivated with numerous heaven-defying profound treasures.

    One can even consider an emperor-step divine sword to be a half-step true divinity sword!

    The Cardinal Patriarch had suddenly said to Xuan Qiaoqiao and the others that were near to him, "This Patriarch Elder, I think I know who he is now¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Millenium Jun Feitian, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald, Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, Confidant Ur Muyuan, Herald Ma Laide and many of the elders that were near to him were looking at him with a perplexed look.

    The Cardinal Patriarch solemnly said, "Do you all remember that 30 000 years ago, there was a patriarch elder that had attained a high mastery in his sword skill and he was even given the title of the Great Patriarch Sword Saint? And he also had an emperor divine sword. Butter, he had disappeared but his parting words were that if the Ancient Old Ones would be in trouble one day, he would be back. I think it is this respected patriarch elder."

    When he had exined this, many were gasping with realization and shock.

    "The Great Patriarch Sword Saint?!"

    "He is the Great Patriarch Sword Saint and he is here to help us¡­"

    Only Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little sheepish; it was because she knows that the masked man was actually Ji Yuan and the reason why he was wearing a mask was to conceal his identity as a human and also because he had no pointed ears.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim released a powerful burst of his profound aura and even from afar, his profound aura was extremely oppressive!

    From his infernal profound aura, a seven headed hydra could be seen and it was as though the surrounding infernal energies were all being sucked by his profound aura!

    This stunned all the Ancient Old Ones that were watching.

    It was because none of the 7th realm cultivators among the Ancient Old Ones could even muster their profound strength to the fullest in front of this powerful infernal aura!

    And if they were to even approach this infernal profound aura, they may even be sucked dry by it!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had turned pale immediately, "This Immortal Abyssal is a high immortal with a powerful spiritual infernal aura¡­"

    She was immediately anxious for Ji Yuan.

    Then he smirked coldly to the masked man, "You seem to be their only powerful hope. Today, I shall rip you apart in this ce and your emperor divine sword shall then be mine. Muhahaha!"

    Ji Yuan was also quite startled by this powerful disy and this Immortal Abyssal was stronger than any of the immortals that he had fought previously.

    At this moment, he was using all his profound animus to keep himself afloat and hence, he could only use one emperor-step divine sword.

    And this battle required him to battle his enemy in the air.

    So, he mustered his spirit animus the Deste Cherubim with a burst of profound power and his profound aura was further enhanced.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was unfazed by the sight of Ji Yuan''s spirit animus and he merely grinned, "Not bad. A ninth rank spirit animus. Butpared to my 10th rank spirit animus, it is far inferior¡­"

    However, he had suddenly stopped grinning when Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed another emperor-step divine sword and he had also perfectly harmonized with it!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim could not believe what he was seeing; it was because even in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm, there was no one like this masked man that could possibly possess two emperor-step swords¡­

    But his surprise did not end there.

    Ji Yuan had also disyed his ultra sword spirit on his forehead and a powerful burst of sword aura had also reced his powerful profound aura.

    And in front of him were 9 divine swords, and one of the divine swords was even a half-step emperor-step divine sword!

    And all the 9 hovering divine swords also had a double halo on them!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim and many others were stunned when they saw that this masked man actually had 3 emperor-step swords!

    Ji Yuan had actually never felt so robust in his profound aura before and he was sheepishly looking at Xiang Li.

    It was because Xiang Li had the ability to enhance the auras but she never actually helped Ji Yuan unless she was being asked to.

    But today, Xiang Li was enhancing Ji Yuan''s profound sword aura and ultra sword spirit to an unprecedent height!

    It was because Xiang Li was extremely angry now.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim did not dare to take this masked man lightly now and spikes began to cover hisrge abyssal body as his size grew a third bigger; he had suddenly transformed into an abyssal fiend and even his profound aura had surged to the 9th realm cultivation!

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao and all the other Ancient Old Ones saw the transformation of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim, they had all turned pale; it was because this Gong Nephilim really had the power to demolish their entire Nightfall Heights and he was merely an apprentice to the more powerful Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    And they were all fearing for the masked man now.

 Chapter 1048 A Furious Ji Yuan (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1048 A Furious Ji Yuan (1)</h4>

    As soon as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had transformed into an abyssal fiend, Ji Yuan had already fully mustered his profound strength to attack.

    And he had attacked by sending his 9 flying divine swords to meet his opponent first.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim growled angrily as he waved his divine sword to deflect the 9 flying swords aside with his mighty profound power, "You ought to do better than this!"

    When the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had just said that, Ji Yuan had already lifted both of his emperor divine swords and he had unleashed his ultimate grand cross, disying his profound sword art and his sword domain at the same time.

    At the same time a furious Ji Yuan was shouting loudly, "Die!!! You bastard!!!"

    Xiang Li was also shouting the same and she was equally as furious.

    A brilliant white re of light exploded over the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim as he raised his divine sword to receive Ji Yuan''s profound sword art.

    He had not expected for his opponent to react so fast and he did not expect for his opponent to have muster such arge surge of profound power in such a short time; even for an immortal he was quite startled.

    Ji Yuan''s ultimate grand cross profound attack was so powerful that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was hurled down from the heavens and crashed into a mushroom of cloud into his own citadel that was at the top of the 10th rank epic gargantuan tortoise.

    This stunned all the onlookers from both sides as they could not believe that a 8th realm False Immortal cultivator could actually hurled a true immortal with a profound power that was at the 9th realm just like this.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao was looking quite startled; it was because she had not thought that Ji Yuan was this strong. When he had told her that he was a Sword Deity with 6 sword domains, she thought that their differences were minor and that he was only slightly stronger than her.

    This time round, she was fully convinced and she was looking quite pleased.

    Ji Yuan truly deserved to be her lord!

    However, this was only the first round as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was actually not seriously injured. He was only caught by surprise by the startling power of Ji Yuan''s profound sword art and his freaking strong abyssal fiend body was nearly indestructible.

    He bellowed loudly as he raised his ws toward Ji Yuan and immediately arge phantom talon had suddenly been materialized in front of Ji Yuan to crush him.

    The profound aura of thisrge phantom talon was extremely oppressing as it hurled at Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan sped past therge phantom talon in a blink of an eye and he had shed like a speeding meteor down onto the citadel where the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was!

    Ji Yuan did not even bother to engage the profound attack of the gigantic phantom talon directly and instead he had disyed the profound animus of the wings of his Deste Cherubim to charge down at his foe.

    This caught the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim by surprise by Ji Yuan''s sudden descend as this also rendered his powerful profound attack useless.

    Although it seemed easy for Ji Yuan to speed past his gigantic phantom talon but in actuality, this was extremely hard to aplish as the powerful oppressive profound aura of the gigantic phantom talon would slow down even the most powerful immortals, forcing them to engage with it first.

    But Ji Yuan was empowered by the speed of Anyang''s five elements enhancement that was furthered enhanced by Xiang Li.

    Also, the oppressing aura of the gigantic phantom talon was insufficient to stop Ji Yuan as he had already decided to charge down furiously even before the profound attack had materialized.

    Ji Yuan''s reaction was just too startling.

    Like a speeding meteor, Ji Yuan had crashed onto the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim and he was suddenly raising both of his divine swords to strike furiously at his foe.

    This startled the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim as he hastily raised all his profound strength to retaliate against Ji Yuan.

    Multiple silhouettes of his two divine swords shed furiously against the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim as it torn bits of his ''indestructible'' armor off as Ji Yuan''s attacks were too simply too fast for him to blockpletely.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had suddenly realized how strong this masked man was and he hadpletely underestimated him as he was forced to step back, again and again under Ji Yuan''s furious attacks.

    With every blink of an eye, Ji Yuan was disying 10 attacks and he had imbued all his sword attacks with his life and death sword domain.

    He was furious and he wanted this Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim to be dead for touching Juan Xian''Er!

    He did not even care if his life and death sword domain was sapping away his life force energies at a furious pace at this moment!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was also furious and he was feeling quite humiliated in front of his abyssal army.

    As he defended against Ji Yuan''s furious attacks, he shouted loudly to his abyssal army. "What are you all waiting for?! Attack! Kill them all!"

    He was hoping that his abyssal army would distract this masked man and provided him with an opportunity for a counter-attack.

    At this moment, he could only defend himself as he hoped to exhaust his furious opponent or waited for him to slow down his attacks for his counter-attack.

    Luckily for him, he was a formidable abyssal fiend immortal with a formidable profound defense and nearly indestructible body, both outside and inside.

    He also shouted furiously as his profound voice boomed, "Ready the citadel''s profound cannons! Train it on this man here! Don''t worry about me. I won''t be affected much but this man here won''t be able to survive!"

    This was a major difference between their cultivations and bodily strength.

    No matter how formidable and fast this masked man was, his bodily cultivation was justcking because in the first ce, he did not have the natural body armor of the great abyssals!

    When this Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had given themand for his abyssal army to attack, the abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and the cultivators of the Ancient Race were immediately shing with each other!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, the Cardinals and their cultivators were immediately defending furiously against therge abyssal army that was attacking them.

    In a short while, chaos reigned everywhere as thousands of cultivators from both sides began to sh with all their might!

 Chapter 1049 A Furious Ji Yuan (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1049 A Furious Ji Yuan (2)</h4>

    As all the cultivators began to fight on both sides, the number of deaths and wounded began to increase rapidly.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was still continuing his relentless attacks as he shed his divine swords upon the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim who focused on his profound defenses as he waited for his opponent to weaken himself and to show weakness.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim knows that his opponent could not maintain such ferocity attacks for too long as this would tax him heavily on his profound strength and after profound strength was mustered, there would be a time for profound recovery.

    And he was patience enough to wait for a few minutes for that although it seemed to him like an infinity long period of time at this moment.

    Indeed, before long, Ji Yuan''s relentless sword attacks began to weaken and the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was now smiling; it was time for him to retaliate now and he had been storing his profound strength to do so for some time now.

    But to his startled surprise, Ji Yuan had slowed himself briefly only to muster his profound strength again as he willed his 9 divine swords to fly to the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim and hundreds of sword phantom swords had suddenly materialized around him into multiple circrs of swords!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was shocked, "Sword domain again?! You have no exhausted your sword domain?!"

    Ji Yuan grinned behind his mask, "Are you waiting for me to exhaust my profound strength?"

    Sword domains are executed by the willpower and sword intentions of the cultivator and not profound strength. And Ji Yuan was able to execute his sword domain by mustering it from his unfazed sword aura which was still intact.

    It was a mistake for the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim to be on the defensive against Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan immediately sent hundreds of flying swords piercing through the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim and to hurl him backward, sending him to crash onto the walls of his citadel.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim however was suddenly smirking coldly, "Hahaha! Now I have got you!"

    He then shouted aloud, "Fire from the profound cannon now!"

    All of a sudden two profound beams of red light were fired from the nearby cannons on the top of the citadel and aimed at Ji Yuan.

    The sts of the beams were more than 100m wide each, making it quite impossible for Ji Yuan to evade.

    Ji Yuan immediately raised his two divine swords over him as he received the two sts of beams that exploded furiously over him and even killing several hundreds of the nearby cultivators as well.

    All of Ji Yuan''s profound swords were instantly destroyed.

    The shockwave was so great that even the Nightfall Heights were shaking furiously.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped with shock and she was bleary with tears when she saw the two sts that exploded for over a mile, killing hundreds of cultivators nearby.

    Even for a False Immortal like JI Yuan, there was no way for him to survive the powerful sts and he was sure to be obliterated.

    And the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was sure that Ji Yuan had obliterated too because this st could kill even the weaker abyssal fiends. Even if they did not die immediately, such a st would severely injure them.

    Moreover, his opponent had received 2 such sts at the same time, making it impossible that he would be able to survive the attack.

    Victory is now his!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim wearily picked himself from the debris of the copsed wall around him and he wasughing jovially, "A lowly ant that actually thinks of challenging a goliath. Stupid ant¡­"

    But no longer had he said that, two bright res of light had pierced through hisughing body and he was in disbelief.

    These two white res of light were actually Ji Yuan''s two emperor-step divine swords as he disyed his miracle sacred sword art, the Sacred Sword Pir; he had cleverly used the shockwaves of the profound sts to conceal his sudden profound attacks.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was startled that Ji Yuan was able to muster his profound strength for the sudden attack; he was really not expecting such an attack.

    One must know that sword domains must be freed from disturbances in order to be used. So under the powerful profound sts, he had guessed that his opponent would not be able to use any sword domain. As a matter of fact, he would shatter his opponent''s sword domain instead.

    Moreover, his opponent should be using all his profound strength to resist the profound sts and he would overextend himself, making it impossible for him to muster his profound strength for the time being.

    While his analysis was mostly correct but Ji Yuan had the aid of Anyang and Aura the Divine Tree to help him deflect some of the shockwaves and profound energies. Moreover, he was someone that had been tempered by nine, nine purple lightning or 81 times purple lightning; his body had already been tempered to the upper 9th immortal body level.

    That was why Ji Yuan still had the profound strength to retaliate against his opponent.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly emerged from the sts and he was shed toward the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim; he looked extremely bloodied and his golden blood could be seen almost everywhere on his body.

    Even his sword aura and the spirit animus had been dissipated.

    But Ji Yuan had survived the profound sts and he had shed onto the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim in the next instant as he gripped his divine swords that were sticking from his opponent''s body and then he had suddenly disyed his grand cross sword art, cutting the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim into halves with a brilliant white re of light!

    When the upper body of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim rolled onto the ground, he was in shock; how could anyone react so fast?! It was as though Ji Yuan did not need time to muster his profound strength¡­

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was not dead yet.

    It was impossible to kill an immortal abyssal even if he was cut into halves as they had a formidable life force.

    But he did not have the time to even think about this because a furious Ji Yuan was relentless swinging his divine swords as he ripped the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim into many smaller parts.

    And while doing so, Ji Yuan was shouting furiously amidst the loud battle sounds, "How dare you green me! How dare you do this to Juan Xian''Er!!!"

    The severed head of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was now shouting panicky and almost incoherently, "Wait! Hear me first! Spare me! I didn''t do anything about Juan Xian''Er¡­ she has escaped¡­"

    But before he could finish, Ji Yuan had ripped his head into many pieces to vent his furious rage.

    The numerous abyssals of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom were all in great shock when their leader the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was suddenly killed by the masked man and there was general panic among them.

    Many were now retreating panicky now.

    Even the Ancient Old Ones could not believe their eyes when the masked man had killed the powerful Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim!

    The Cardinal Patriarch shouted with great delight with his old voice, "The Great Patriarch Sword Saint has won! Spare none of the attackers!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was gasping softly.

    She was bleary with tears and was using her hands to cover her mouth, "Ji Yuan has won¡­ he is fighting for me so hard for my sake¡­"

 Chapter 1050 The Fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint

    ?

    The battle was actually not over yet, at least for Ji Yuan.

    After Ji Yuan had killed the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim, he quickly disyed his Million Swords Field with his life and death sword domain, creating volleys of profound swords against the citadel walls that housed the mighty cannons.

    Although the citadel walls were made of ck celestiums and were extremely sturdy, but against the life force energies swords of Ji Yuan''s Million Swords Field, the cannons totaled six in all were allpletely destroyed.

    Two of the huge cannons had been used against Ji Yuan and it had a slow recharge speed.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan and the Ancient Old Ones, these 6 huge cannons all had the same power source and only 2 could be fired at any given time, with the other 4 acting as reserve in case a cannon was destroyed.

    And Ji Yuan had already taken the blunt of profound energies of the 2 cannons.

    The abyssals were cruel people and they did not hesitate to fire at Ji Yuan even though he was fighting near their citadel and there were hundreds of friendly abyssals on their side.

    The order of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim was very clear; they had to fire the cannons at Ji Yuan.

    The abyssal army had lost their morale and their leaders had ordered a general retreat since they could not defeat the numerical superior Ancient Old ones and moreover, they had also lost the use of their powerful huge cannons that could level the formidable pces of the Nightfall Heights.

    So, they ordered their surviving army to retreat to their citadel and ordered the 10th rank epic gargantuan tortoise monster to move away from the Nightfall Heights.

    Although the abyssals had a 10th rank epic profound monster on their side but it waspletely useless in this battle; it was because the head of this formidable monster could only reach to 1/3 of the height of the Nightfall Mountains and there was nothing for it to attack nor could it see what was on top of the Nightfall Mountains.

    In other situations, it may be able to roll over the huge walls of the enemy''s formidable walls but in this case, it had no other use other than being just a mobile fortress.

    Either the Ancient Old Ones or Ji Yuan bothered to attack the unkible 10th rank epic gargantuan monster too and they were contended to just let it carry the remaining abyssal army away.

    Ji Yuan hovered back to the mountains of the Nightfall Heights and did not give chase as he was actually too heavily injured.

    It was only his rage that had driven him forward earlier and he was now sored all over his body.

    It was only when it was finally over that he had realized that he had tanked two powerful profound energies sts and had survived.

    But he knew that it was also due to fighting efforts of Xiang Li, Anyang and Aura as he muttered. "Thank you, everyone¡­"

    Just as he was about to disappear from the battle scene in secret, he was suddenly being confronted in the heavens by Xuan Qiaoqiao, the 5 Cardinals, Millenium Jun Feitian and numerous elders of the Ancient Racel they had spurted wings and had surrounded Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had forgotten that the Ancient Race could actually fly and they did not need to be at the 8th cultivation realm in order to fly in the air.

    However, they were all looking quite respectful and not in a threatening manner.

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald and many others were all thanking Ji Yuan respectfully, "Senior, thank you foring to our aid today!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch quickly said to Ji Yuan, "Senior! We are really thankful to you today. Are you¡­ our Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    Ji Yuan was startled: What Great Patriarch Sword Saint?! What is he talking about?

    Xuan Qiaoqiao of course knows that the masked man was Ji Yuan and when she saw Ji Yuan was hesitating, she quickly said with a sheepish look. "Senior, I am the Cardinal Priestess of this era. Of course you are the Great Patriarch Sword Saint, right?"

    Ji Yuan quickly caught on the hint that was given to him by Xuan Qiaoqiao by pretending to say coarsely to everyone, "Indeed I am. There is no need to thank me. It is my duty. I need to go now and do not follow me¡­"

    "Wait, senior!" It was Millenium Jun Feitian that had suddenly halted him.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he thought: Have he seen through my disguise?

    Millenium Jun Feitian said quickly, "Senior, I wonder if you could ept me as your core prot¨¦g¨¦? I am willing to obey all of senior''s instructions. I am also not afraid of any hardships!"

    Ji Yuan was startled by this sudden request and he was thinking: Yesterday you are plotting to kill me and today you want to be my core prot¨¦g¨¦? If I were to let you know that I am Ji Yuan, then I am going to be a dead shit.

    He pretended to say solemnly, "I am long in seclusion and have no wish to ept a core prot¨¦g¨¦. Also, I am actually nning to ascend very soon. Farewell¡­"

    With that he had jumped down from the mountains of the Nightfall Heights and disappeared in the dense woods below.

    When he was gone, the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen began to sigh softly. "I wonder what the Great Patriarch Sword Saint looks like behind his mask."

    The Cardinal Jun Qianfeng giggled softly, "He must be a really old cultivator. But no matter how old he is, if he is willing to take me as his consort, I don''t mind at all."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    She said unhappily, "This senior is probably dying very soon. Look at his injuries and you can tell. If you be his consort then you will be a widow very soon!"

    The Cardinal Pope was startled as he interrupted weakly, "Your Cardinal Priestess. Senior has just helped us. You should not have cursed him in this manner."

    The Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Herald and many of the elders were all muttering the same too.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    What senior? He is a fake¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was not bothered by their remarks but she was suddenly smiling as she looked down at the dense forests below the mountains; she was now determined not to spare Ji Yuan from her clutches.

    -

    -

    -

    It was nearly nightfall when Ji Yuan had finally climbed back to the top of the Nightfall Heights and he was cursing bitterly.

    Why did they have to surround him and forced him to jump down from the mountains?

    Now he had to painfully climbed up the Nightfall Heights again.

    He could not disy his 8th realm cultivation to try to hover up or else he would be recognized and he could not exin himself.

    Therefore, he could only climb up the Nightfall Heights despites his heavy injuries.

    This reminded him of the old days when his old master would kick him down the mountains and he would then be forced to climb up again. At that time, he was not even a golden celestial and it was even worse for him than now.

    His old master had told him that this was ''training''.

    At that time he would curse his old master and arguing with him that he would never have the chance to fall down the mountains and to climb up so pathetic again. Hence, he did not need this torturous ''training'' at all.

    While he was climbing up the Nightfall Heights, he was also cursing Anyang, Xiang Li and Aura because they were resting while he was struggling with the climb.

    He felt as though he was their ve instead.

    Luckily for Ji Yuan, most of the defensive arrays had been damaged and his climb did not trigger any rms.

    But as he walked awkwardly back to the Cathedral of the Songs, he was quite startled to chance upon Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang and her followers.

    When she saw Ji Yuan, she immediately walked to him and said unhappily. "Our Cardinal Harpy is looking everywhere for you and she thought that you may be dead. But you are alive instead."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Heehee, sorry to disappoint you but I am a tough nut to crack."

    Yue Wushuang had by now know that Ji Yuan was Millenium Jun Feitian''s enemy and she was not polite to him like the first time.

    She scoffed coldly at him, "Are you pretending to be hard at fighting in the battle earlier today? Look at all the fake golden blood that are all over you. You can''t even beat a normal abyssal cultivator at your cultivation realm. You should use red blood instead. Are you thinking of getting a reward from our Cardinal Harpy?"

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly when he had heard her: Actually, this is my own blood¡­

    But he quickly said, "I have identally rolled over the corpses of some high level cultivators. Hahaha¡­"

    There were actually plenty of rubbles around and many cultivators were still missing in the aftermath of the earlier battle.

    So, she had assumed that Ji Yuan had been trapped in the rubbles or were unconscious in the aftermath of the battle that were several hours ago. And that was why she had led her sisters tob the battlefield for Ji Yuan.

    Luckily for her, she had finally found Ji Yuan after digging the rubbles for several hours.

    Yue Wushuang said coldly to him, "Quickly get back to the Cathedral of the Songs. We have to search for the other survivors."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he ran off hastily.

    <h4>Chapter 1051 Activating the Heart Link Ne again</h4>

    ?

    Ji Yuan was soon back to the Cathedral of the Songs.

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was only too d to see that he was safe and sound or else it would be just a bad joke that her new lover was dead after a night of romance with her.

    "Holy Harpy 4444, you are alive." She asked him in the great hall of the Cathedral of the Songs.

    As there were dozens of maidens in this great hall, she had pretended to ask Ji Yuan politely.

    Ji Yuan saw that the great hall had been turned into a ce that amodated the numerous wounded of the Cardinal Harpy.

    All the wounded were actually from the Cardinal Harpy and many were in great pains.

    It ached Ji Yuan''s heart to see so many beautiful maidens with tears on their faces and many had even lost their limbs.

    Unfortunately for the majority of those that had lost their limbs or had their organs injured, unless they had some heaven-defying profound treasures, they could not regenerate back their lost limbs or organs until they could reach the 5th realm cultivation.

    The aftermath of the battle was quite brutal against the abyssals of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom with numerous of the Ancient Race that were either dead or injured.

    After all, the Great Abyssal Race and the other abyssals races were much stronger physically than the Ancient Race.

    The brief battle had been extremely brutal.

    Ji Yuan said, "I was swept aside by the battle and when I had awakened, I am in this state. But luckily, I found myself very much still alive and hurried back."

    Li Yifen looked a little perplexed at Ji Yuan''s answers; it was because he would not be this seriously injured and bloodied since by now she had already known that he was a high level celestial cultivator. So, he should have the means to defend himself when the cunning enemy abyssals had purposely attacked the back where the weaker cultivators of the Ancient Race were.

    He had not seen Ji Yuan at the front line either. So how could he get himself so bloodied?

    Then she was frowning to herself: This chatan. He must be pretending again. Just like he had pretended to be a low level cultivator¡­

    Li Yifen decided to ignore this for now.

    Instead, she smiled and asked to him, "Have you seen the mysterious masked man earlier? He is our Great Patriarch Sword Saint and he has single handed saved the day for us today. Do you think that he is impressive?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by this question: Is she suspecting that this is me? After all, we are quite near to each other earlier. Even though I have also changed my robe, she can still recognize me?! Or is it just a test?

    After deducting quickly, he had decided to y along first.

    Ji Yuan answered her, "Well, he can do better than this."

    Li Yifen: ¡­

    "Are you disrespecting our Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is the wrong answer?

    He weakly said, "Erm, he looks quite impressive?"

    Li Yifen hummed coldly, "Only looking quite impressive? It seems that you can do better than the Great Patriarch Sword Saint instead. He is our hero. Even if it takes you a million years, you can never be like him."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am actually him¡­

    Li Yifenmanded him, "You may go and take a rest first since your injuries are not heavy."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself: Actually my injuries are actually quite heavy and I can''t cultivate in your world and can''t recuperate¡­

    Although he had said that, Aura the Divine Tree was actually drawing upon pure spiritual energies of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to restore Ji Yuan''s cultivation strength and wounds.

    Ji Yuan could feel that but he could not help protesting silently.

    He could see that Li Yifen was not in the best of mood now especially when so many of her prot¨¦g¨¦s were either dead or wounded, so this was actually a best time for him to be alone and to look for Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    So he hurried back to his personal room while Li Yifen continued to be in the great hall as she continued to receive reports after reports.

    Once he was back in her personal room, he quickly took out the heart link ne and sent Xuan Qiaoqiao a transmission, "You are there?"

    After a while, a broken transmission could be heard and it was the halting voice of Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Ji Yuan! Are you alright? You are back to the Cathedral of the Songs now?"

    Ji Yuan answered bitterly, "Indeed I am. It took me several hours to climb up again to the Nightfall Heights. Why did you all have to surround me earlier¡­ do you really think that I want to jump down from the mountains¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao ignored Ji Yuan''sints and instead, she was giggling softly. "Well, you are the old and mysterious Great Patriarch Sword Saint now. So you won''t die so easily."

    Ji Yuan could not see Xuan Qiaoqiao''s countenance now but right now, she was actually blushing hotly as she said softly, "Thank you Ji Yuan foring to my aid¡­ and for my Ancient Race. Or today, I may just have to go with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim¡­ I¡­ ought to thank you personally¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he unromantically interrupted her, "There is no need to thank me. We have known each other for quite some time already and we are friends. I don''t even know what is going on today. Who is this Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was reflecting on Ji Yuan''s words: We have known each other for quite some time already. Does he mean that he is interested in me?

    But she quickly answered coyly, "He is the most powerful sword cultivator of our Ancient Race. And like you, he is capable of using sword domains. But I think he is long dead though. It is just that it is more convenient for you to assume his identity first."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he said, "Right¡­"

    Then he began to say bitterly, "Qiaoqiao, I''m sorry about Juan Xian''Er. We should not have left her in the royal city¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said with a soft sigh, "I have check with the Cardinal Herald. It seems that the diplomatic mission was now uncontactable and presumably met with mishaps¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled and he was now sighing heavily, "Then Maiden Juan Xian''Er is captured as exactly as what that Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had said and she was made into their¡­ pleasure ve..."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "She''s alright. I have just talked with Juan Xian''Er through our heart link ne and she has narrowly made her escape. Unfortunately for her diplomatic mission, most of them were either killed or captured. She is now on her way back now but she can''t fly back as there are numerous flying drakes patrolling the skies. I''ve actually told her what happened today as well."

    Ji Yuan was startled and he was instantly delighted, "Juan Xian''Er is alright? Haha¡­ good, good¡­"

    He had actually forgotten that Xuan Qiaoqiao was able tomunicate with Juan Xian''Er with her other heart link ne.

    And his heart was pounding now because Juan Xian''Er was actually returning to the Nightfall Heights now and the image of her naked body in front of him began to sh in his mind¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao agreed and her eyes were bleary, "Yeah, it is good that Juan Xian''Er is alright. I was fearing for the worst earlier too."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly in a good mood now, "Haha. Qiaoqiao, aboutst night¡­ we are supposed to be discussing our next ns, right before we got interrupted."

    "Oh yes. What about that?"

    Ji Yuan asked her, "So what is the next n of action?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked curiously, "You are asking me?"

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "I am?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao curiously asked, "Aren''t you the one that wants to look for the spy?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Well, I do have some questions about the hierarchy here and about the Cardinals. Maybe you can help me with some of my questions then."

    "Sure¡­ please ask."

 Chapter 1052 The Secret to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden

    <h4>Chapter 1052 The Secret to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden</h4>

    Ji Yuan asked Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Well. Let''s start from the bastard bloodlines that we had stopped thest time before we got interrupted. You say that Juan Xian''Er has a true bloodline while the rest of you have a bastard bloodline. What do you mean by this?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "Well¡­ that is only because all the true noble bloodline had died off here, leaving only the bastard bloodlines to continue our lineage."

    Ji Yuan could not believe he was actually hearing Xuan Qiaoqiao''s giggles over the transmission and she seemed to be putting it quite lightly in her heart.

    "I don''t understand," Ji Yuan frowned, "If all the true noble bloodlines had died off here, then why did Juan Xian''Er have the true bloodline?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled, "Smart. That''s because she is not from the Dark Abyssal Realm but from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. Her parents are one of the first immortals of our Ancient Race in this realm and her mother consort kwas our first Cardinal Priestess. However, as she can''t cultivate the immortal energies of the Great Abyssal Realm, her parents had sent her here to cultivate. This is supposed to be a secret that only the Cardinals know."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "So Juan Xian''Er is the daughter of the First Cardinal Priestess¡­ It is no wonder why some of your people wants to appoint her as the next Cardinal Priestess."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao answered, "That''s right. But she doesn''t want to be the Cardinal Priestess as she hates the constant politics of the Cardinals."

    Then she giggled, "But Juan Xian''Er is actually stronger than me. But she doesn''t want the others to know about this. In fact, she is the one that had helped me to ovee my False Immortal level."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    While he was with Juan Xian''Er, he was under the impression that Xuan Qiaoqiao as the Cardinal Priestess was stronger than her; it was because she had purposely misled Ji Yuan by warning him so and that he should not touched the Cardinal Priestess or else he would have to suffer from the consequencester.

    But it seemed to him now that Juan Xian''Er was actually a much formidable False Immortal level cultivator. It was no wonder why she could subdue Xuan Qiaoqiao so easily in the first ce too.

    He began to rub his chin and muttered to himself: Well, looks can be deceiving¡­

    Although he was muttering about Juan Xian''Er, he was not upset with this deception. Rather, he found Juan Xian''Er to be rather interesting maiden or else he would not have lost his cool when he had learnt that she hade to harm.

    He had literally gone berserk earlier when he had learnt of her mishaps and he was thoroughly furiously at the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim.

    His furious rage had caused him to fight at his power level peak and this surprised even himself when he was actually able to force the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim into a corner.

    Ji Yuan said to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "There is another thing. What is this Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said bitterly, "You even know about this ce? The Cardinal Harpy had told you? This is our holy sanctuary and forbidden to most of the Ancient Old Ones."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "I was told that I could retrieve a spirit divine sword if I can y the flute for the Cardinal Harpy."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had a look of surprise as she said, "Are you sure? I don''t believe. You have no idea how sacred this ce it is to us and it is a heinous crime to take anything from this ce. All that because you are willing to y the flute for her?"

    Ji Yuan was startled; he had no idea that the penalty for doing so would be this severe. But then again, this ce was their forbidden ground and holy sanctuary.

    He muttered weakly, "This can''t be this serious, right? What is the history of this Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hesitated for a while before she said solemnly, "I shouldn''t be telling you this but I trust that you tell no one about this."

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "Don''t worry, my lips are tight. You can trust my honor in this."

    Xiang Li said so as well: You can trust me to keep this a secret too.

    Anyang chuckled: You can trust me with this secret too.

    Aura the Divine Tree was also giggling: Me too!

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck are these 3 spirits doing here? They are eavesdropping on my conversations?!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said, "There is a forbidden secret that is inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. So we can''t allow anyone, especially the abyssal races to know about this. Much is at stake in the Sanctuary of the Forbidden and that is why we don''t want to allow too many people to know about this secret. By right, only the Cardinal Priestess and the Cardinals are allowed to know this secret. But Ji Yuan, I trust you because you have saved the Ancient Race today."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t worry. I am very good in keeping secrets. Other than me, there won''t be a third person that knows about this¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled: I am the fourth person. Anyang is the third person!

    Anyang protested immediately: I am not the third person. I am the fifth person! Aura is the third person!

    Aura: ???

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said slowly, "The Sanctuary of the Forbidden is actually a shrine to the True Devil God. You may not have heard of him¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled: A shrine to the True Devil God?! In this ce?!

    Just as he was about to answer Xuan Qiaoqiao that he had actually heard of the True Devil God, there was a sudden knock on his door and it was the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen.

    Li Yifen said sweetly, "Ji Yuan, open the door. I am here to see you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why did she have toe at this timing?

    He could not believe that he got interrupted a second time. At this rate, he would use up the profound energies of the Heart Link Ne before he could even find the spy or spies¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned, "Why is she alwaysing to your room? Are you hiding something from me?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "Of course not. Let''s talkter or another day¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly as she unhappily ended the transmission.

    An awkward Ji Yuan quickly kept the Heart Link Ne and shouted, "I''ming!"

 Chapter 1053 Maybe this Interruption isnâ€™t that bad

    <h4>Chapter 1053 Maybe this Interruption isn''t that bad</h4>

    As soon as Li Yifen was inside Ji Yuan''s personal room, she smiled wryly. "I''m sorry about earlier. I was in a bad mood after what had happened earlier today."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly to himself: I rather that you continued to be in a bad mood so that I can continue to chat with Xuan Qiaoqiao and not regained your mood so quickly¡­

    But he forced a smile to say, "Haha, that is alright. I totally understand about this."

    Li Yifen sighed softly as she exined, "After the aftermath of the battle, all the Cardinals and senior elders have an emergency meeting with the Cardinal Priestess to discuss the next steps. Itsted quite some time and then I have to deal with so many bad reports. I hope that you are able to understand why my mood is so bad."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, I did say that I understand."

    Li Yifen further sighed, "I have some disagreement with the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng earlier too."

    Ji Yuan curiously asked, "What about her?"

    Li Yifen sighed, "She is really giving me the headache. Do you know that she has actually said that she will dedicate herself to the Great Patriarch Sword Saint even if he is an old man."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Isn''t that me?

    But he smiled weakly, "Maybe the Great Patriarch Sword Saint don''t look so old. After all, he is a cultivator. Hahaha¡­"

    Li Yifen hummed coldly, "No matter what. I am against this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    That is her choice and not your choice. I don''t understand why you are against that¡­

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Surely you didn''te to tell me this, right?"

    Li Yifen smiled wryly, "Of course not!"

    Then she lowered her voice to say, "Didn''t you say that you want to enter the Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Really? You will bring me there?"

    Li Yifen began to smile mysteriously, "That''s right. But whether you can obtain the spirit divine sword, I can''t really promise you. It depends on your destiny."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I''ve thought you say that I can obtain a spirit divine sword if I were to go to that ce. But after you have obtained my body, you are saying that it is up to my destiny? Are you a chatan or what?

    But of course, Ji Yuan had kept these words to himself as he did not want to miss the chance to take a look at this Sanctuary of the Forbidden.

    He was quite curious about the Sanctuary of the Forbidden as he had just heard from Xuan Qiaoqiao that it was also the secret shrine to the True Devil God.

    "However," Li Yifen began to solemnly say to him. "There will be someone that wille with us. But you must not tell anyone about it."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Someone else ising with us?"

    Li Yifen nodded solemnly, "Do you remember that I need two si rings to enter the Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right."

    Li Yifen exined, "Well, I did borrow a si ring but the other Cardinal insists oning too. So it is a deal that we have made."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and thought: This isn''t that bad actually. In this way, I know who the secret ally of the Cardinal Harpy.

    So he quickly smiled, "I don''t mind at all. Haha¡­ But why should he want toe along too?"

    Li Yifei said nonchntly, "Naturally it is to try to obtain a spirit divine sword as well. As you can see from today''s battle, we may be at war with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom soon."

    Ji Yuan was curious about another thing and so he asked, "The two of you are not afraid to allow me to enter your forbidden ground? What if I were to discover some deadly secrets about your Ancient Race?"

    Li Yifen chuckled as she gently caressed Ji Yuan''s face, "Ah, you are worried about that? Don''t worry, the Sanctuary of the Forbidden is divided into the Outer and the Inner Sanctuary. In order to enter the Inner Sanctuary, you will need 7 of the cardinal si rings. That is where our deadly secrets are. As for the Outer Sanctuary, you won''t be able to know any of the deadly secrets of the Ancient Race."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He felt like punching himself now; he did not know that the Sanctuary of the Forbidden has an Outer and Inner Sanctuary. Now half of his enthusiasms were gone¡­

    Li Yifen smiled at him, "So, are you feeling excited? That you may be able to obtain a spirit divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Yeah. I feel really excited. So, when are we going?"

    Li Yifen smiled as she suddenly bent over to give Ji Yuan a passionate kiss, "Naturally after our kiss¡­"

    Ji Yuan responded immediately by kissing back passionately onto her moist lips and putting his tongue into her mouth as he stirred her from within.

    Li Yifen''s charming and hot face was soon moaning softly in respond as the two of them had quickly dropped onto the bed together.

    Ji Yuan did not care for his recent injuries and he had quickly jumped on top of Li Yifen as he ripped apart her robe impatiently, "After this first. The other Cardinal will wait for us, am I right?"

    Li Yifen chuckled softly as Ji Yuan''s hot body began to press upon her, "Then you have to be really fast¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s naughty fingers were already exploring her snow white peaks and beyond as he fingered her sensual body, "This will be quick. Haha¡­"

    Li Yifen''s soft eyes were full of passions and her countenance was flushed, "I guess that it doesn''t hurt to dy for a little while then¡­"

 Chapter 1054 The identity of the secret Cardinal

    <h4>Chapter 1054 The identity of the secret Cardinal</h4>

    Li Yifen was sent up to the nine heavens multiple times by Ji Yuan; she had a satisfied look on her and her pleasurable moans were too enticing to Ji Yuan.

    But all good things had toe to an end, especially when they were also quitete for their appointment with the other Cardinal that was waiting for them at the Sanctuary of the Forbidden.

    So they quickly put on their clothing before they departed together from the Cathedral of the Songs.

    Ji Yuan wondered who the other Cardinal may be.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were also quite curious about it.

    JI Yuan told them: It shouldn''t be the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng because the Cardinal Harpy has a feud with her. So it should be the other 4 Cardinals. It should not be the Cardinal Tribune either since he was in seclusion for his ascension.

    Xiang Li asked him: So which of the 4 Cardinals have the higher possibility?

    Ji Yuan chuckled to them: Among the remaining 3 Cardinals, the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Patriarch are the most influential. So we have to rule them out.

    Xiang Li asked curiously: Why?

    Ji Yuan exined with chuckles: That is because the weak always band together to oppose the strong while the strong has no need of alliances. Therefore, the Cardinal that we are meeting should only be the Cardinal Herald.

    Xiang Li delightfully eximed aloud: Wow. Big Brother is so smart!

    Ji Yuanughed aloud: Of course I am. If I am not smart or keen in observations, will I be your Big Brother? Will I still be alive to this day?

    Anyang sheepishly replied: Don''t be too sure about this yet. Maybe you are wrong. Maybe it is actually the Cardinal Tribune. After all, he may need a spirit divine sword in order to increase his odds of ascending.

    Ji Yuan looked quite offended: Anyang, why don''t we have a bet instead? If I am wrong then I shall promise you a wish then. Hahaha¡­

    Anyang was suddenly spirited: You¡­ mean it?

    Ji Yuanughed aloud: Of course! That is because my observations will never be wrong in the first ce.

    Xiang Li giggled: I have full faith in my Big Brother!

    Anyang giggled too: Let''s see about it then if you are right.

    It was actually night when Ji Yuan and Li Yifen were making their way to the innermost areas of the Nightfall Heights.

    They soone to a ce where there were many fallen gigantic stone monuments and blocks.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Don''t tell me that this ruin is where the Sanctuary of the Forbidden is?"

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen smiled faintly, "That''s right. This is where the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, our most sacred temple is. However, we have destroyed this site ourselves."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You have purposely destroyed this site yourselves?! Why?"

    Li Yifen smiled, "It is intentional. It is because we don''t want our enemies or the others from our Ancient Race to suspect that this site is the real location for the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Who will actually bother to search a broken down and abandoned ruin?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "This makes sense¡­"

    The ruins were like a spawning maze and Li Yifen was walking in non-linearly.

    JI Yuan asked her, "This ce is huge and is like a huge maze. When are we reaching?"

    Li Yifen chuckled softly, "Indeed it is. It is because the entrance of the Sanctuary of the Forbidden is also a closely guarded secret. Without me to lead you, you will never be able to find it."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Yeah. We can even y hide and seek in this ce."

    Li Yifen giggled softly, "Indeed, we can y hide and seek in this ce."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning as he said, "But if we are ying hide and seek in this ce then I surely won''t be able to hide from you at all."

    Li Yifen asked curiously, "Why? Surely you are not that bad in ying a simple game of hide and seek?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That is because my love for you will be too luminating to hide from you."

    All of a sudden Li Yifen was flushing hotly and she looked away shyly.

    She weakly protested, "We¡­ we are reaching very soon."

    Ji Yuanughed when he saw her reactions.

    Very soon, they saw a dark cloak person in front of them and that was the ''Cardinal'' that was in cahoots with the Cardinal Harpy.

    Ji Yuan said to Xiang Li and Anyang: Behold my acute observations!

    When the dark cloak stranger saw them, she began to say unhappily. "You are bothte."

    Her feminine and familiar voice caught Ji Yuan by aplete surprise¡­

    It was because as they approached the dark cloaked stranger, Ji Yuan could see that she was actually the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng!

    It was just too impossible and unreal¡­

    It was because Ji Yuan had remembered that on his very first day in the Nightfall Heights, the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen were arguing over him.

    They were the most unlikely of all allies!

    Anyang giggled softly: My lord, it seems that you are wrong. So I get 1 wish from you?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xiang Li was muttering with shock: My Big Brother is wrong?

    When the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng saw Ji Yuan, she disyed a look of disdain on him. "I don''t understand why you want to give this lowly ve a chance to obtain a spirit divine sword."

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen smiled wryly, "I am afraid that this is my personal business. Moreover, he is now a Holy Harpy of my Cardinal Harpy now."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly as he greeted the Cardinal Confidant, "Your Cardinal, Holy Harpy 4444 is pleased to greet you."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly at his greeting and instead she had turned to the Cardinal Harpy as she raised her finger to disy a golden si ring.

    Li Yifen nodded as she too raised her finger with the golden si ring; soon they descended together to a ruined stairs and in the darkness, Ji Yuan could see that there was a crackledrge wall but there was actually nothing there.

    But as soon as the golden radiance of their golden si rings luminated the crackled wall, the wall had transformed into a golden portal!

    This startled Ji Yuan¡­

    These two si rings had just triggered a powerful hidden array that was contained within this crackled wall.

    It was so secret that even Ji Yuan could not tell that there was actually a hidden array formation here!

    Li Yifen turned around as she winked to Ji Yuan, "This is the entrance to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Come, follow us."

 Chapter 1055 A Startling Revelation

    <h4>Chapter 1055 A Startling Revtion</h4>

    Li Yifen said aloud, "Let''s enter the portal to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng merely nodded but did not say anything.

    With that they had entered through the golden portal, with Ji Yuan following closely behind them,

    Ji Yuan soon saw that they were in a dark gigantic great hall that were filled with many ancient weapons, shields and armors.

    The pirs of this wall were gigantic and were 30m in height, causing the three of them to look like dwarves in a gigantic great hall of the giants.

    Li Yifen said, "Walk carefully. This ce is warded by many formidable arrays. Do not go and take any of the relics by the side. If you are fated with the ancient relics, it wille to you."

    It was directed to Ji Yuan rather than to the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng as Ji Yuan did not know the concepts andws of this ce.

    Ji Yuan was grinning to himself as he looked at the back of the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng.

    It was not because he was interested in her but because he had discovered something new today and that was that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen and the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng were allies despites their open bickering.

    This should be newsworthy to Xuan Qiaoqiao and it may even help Ji Yuan to unravel the spy or mole within the Ancient Race sooner than he had expected.

    Maybe the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng is the spy; usually the spy is also the closest to a person and she is the closest Cardinal to the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    When he thought that Xuan Qiaoqiao would be praising his great detective works, he could not help grinning nonstop.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng had suddenly turned around to stare coldly at Ji Yuan, "Why are you staring at me constantly for? I am not interested in any lowly ve."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes while saying weakly, "I did not¡­"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was infuriated, "You still dare to say you are not?!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I am looking just looking around and you happen to be blocking me¡­"

    This was a lie of course.

    Although Jun Qianfeng was beautiful enough butpared to the regal and beautiful Li Yifen, the stunning beautiful Xuan Qiaoqiao and the mesmerizing charming beauty of Juan Xian''Er, she was nowhere the level of a great beauty and she could not hold Ji Yuan''s attention.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Who says I am interested in you? Although you are beautiful enough but you are not my kind. If you want to me, then you ought to me your mother consort for not being beautiful enough and hence, you are still not beautiful enough¡­

    His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by an annoyed Li Yifen.

    Li Yifen sighed softly, "Can''t the two of you get along? I am already having a big headache today. Why don''t you extend your divine sense around and see if you can obtain a spirit divine weapon instead of bickering with each other."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I did not. I think the Cardinal Confidant is just picking on me."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "That is because you are a human and a lowly ve. Do you know that this is our most sacred ce and yet you are able to convince the Cardinal Harpy to bring you to this ce. I must give you praise for being so capable."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He could not resist a snide, "Naturally I am capable or else the Cardinal Harpy won''t bring me to this ce. But no matter how capable I am, I am more surprised that the Cardinal Harpy is willing to bring you to this ce even though you seem to dislike her a lot, am I right?"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "Even if I dislike the Cardinal Harpy, is it a business of yours?"

    Ji Yuanughed coldly, "Of course it is. I am a Holy Harpy of the Cardinal Harpy and it is only right for me to defend her honor. Especially against an unfriendly maiden like you who may be even trying to make use of the Cardinal Harpy to obtain your nefarious objectives."

    Cardinal Confidant raised her hands to p Ji Yuan, "I will have nefarious objectives?! Are you talking about yourself¡­"

    Before she could p Ji Yuan, Li Yifen had caught hold of her wrist and shook her head. "He doesn''t know about our rtionship. You don''t have to be so rude to him. He is my Holy Harpy and I won''t allow you to touch him."

    Ji Yuan was curious what rtionship that they had.

    Or did they have that maiden-maiden rtionship that no one knows about?

    Li Yifen had suddenly turned to smile at Ji Yuan, "Don''t mind the Cardinal Confidant. She can be quite hot temper at times."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng said exasperating, "I am hot temper?!"

    Ji Yuan thought: Yes, you are.

    But he could not resist asking, "I wonder what kind of rtionship do you have?"

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen chuckled softly, "I don''t mind telling this to me since this isn''t any big secret at all. Qianfeng is my daughter."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    When Ji Yuan had heard this, he waspletely stunned.

    This means that Xuan Qiaoqiao won''t be praising him for connecting the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen because this was an open secret that everyone knows.

    It was no wonder why the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng seemed to have no respect for the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen and it was not because they were enemies but mother and daughter¡­

    Wait a minute!

    Does it mean that Millenium Jun Feitian is Li Yifen''s son?!

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that Millenium Jun Feitian also seemed to be showing the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen ack of respect and the reason why was because he is her son.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng said unhappily to Ji Yuan, "What? You look surprised? You want to say something?"

    Ji Yuan did not reply to her but weakly thought: Firstly, I think the two of you don''t look resemble each other. Secondly, I''ve banged your mother consort several times already¡­

 Chapter 1056 JY already have 2 Spirit Divine Weapons?

    <h4>Chapter 1056 JY already have 2 Spirit Divine Weapons?</h4>

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng did not know what Ji Yuan was thinking in his mind but she thought that she should warn him ast time, "You may be a Holy Harpy now and the only man in the Cathedral of the Songs, but never forget that you are merely a lowly human and not our noble Ancient Race. Therefore, don''t ever have any funny designs on the maidens in the Cathedral of the Songs or even the Cardinal Harpy."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly: If you have warned me much earlier, I may not have banged your mother consort. But now you are telling me this¡­ what is wrong with you and your other sibling the Millenium Jun Feitian. One is so rude to me and the other one wants to kill me¡­

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen stepped in to say unhappily, "Enough already, the two of you. You ought to pay more attention to the relics here instead."

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I actually didn''t say a word¡­"

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen ignored Ji Yuan as she pulled the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng to her, "Your Cardinal Confidant, just don''t get upset with him alright? He is actually a humble and friendly man¡­"

    "You say that I am hot temper just now," Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng said unhappily.

    Li Yifenughed softly, "Did I? Don''t mind me. That is only a careless remark."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng continued to say unhappily, "I can''t believe that you are actually taking on the side of a lowly human ve than listen to me."

    Li Yifen smiled weakly, "He is an elder now. A Holy Harpy now¡­."

    "He is merely a lowly junior elder. With his lowly cultivation, he can''t even qualify to be a senior or a patriarch elder in the future." Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly.

    Then she added with a soft chuckle, "He can''t even bepared to the Great Patriarch Sword Saint¡­"

    She turned to look at Li Yifen with dreamy eyes, "Did you see the heroics of the Great Patriarch Sword Saint today?"

    Li Yifen said unhappily, "You have already told me so many times¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself as he walked behind them: I am actually that Great Patriarch Sword Saint and I''ve saved all your asses today¡­

    Li Yifen tried to change the topic as she pointed at the numerous relics that were littered on both sides of the dark great hallway, "The two of you should focus on finding your spirit divine weapons with your divine sense instead or else you may miss it."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, directly to Ji Yuan. "A lowly human ve won''t be able to obtain any of the spirit divine weapons. Hecks the spiritual affinity of our Ancient Race. I don''t know why he is here in the first ce."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He decided to ignore her cold remarks instead and focused his attention on the relics around him.

    But after walking for a while, he could not resist a question to Li Yifen, "How long is this hallway? It seems endless?"

    Li Yifen chuckled softly, "The Outer Sanctuary of the Forbidden is actually 10 miles long."

    When she had said that, Ji Yuan was truly shocked. "It is this long?! If the Outer Sanctuary is already so big, just how vast is the Inner Sanctuary?"

    Li Yifen smiled, "The Inner Sanctuary is located at the end of this hallway but frankly speaking, I''ve never been in there. None of the current Cardinals have ever been inside for thousands of years."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why is it so?"

    Li Yifen chuckled softly, "Because it is hard to find a reason why we should be inside the Inner Sanctuary in the first ce and also because it is also hard to gather 7 golden sis in the first ce. Also, it is impossible for anyone to open the Inner Sanctuary nowadays¡­"

    "Why so?" Ji Yuan curiously interrupted.

    Li Yifen chuckled softly, "Beside the 7 golden si rings, you will also need the blood essence of a true bloodline of the Ancient Race in order to open the Inner Sanctuary¡­"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng frowned as she turned to say to Li Yifen, "Just tell him that that is the final resting ce of the True Devil God and we don''t want to disturb his golden body¡­"

    "Qianfeng!" Li Yifen had suddenly raised her voice to halt the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, "You talk too much!"

    Ji Yuan had never seen Li Yifen with such an angry look before.

    There was a guilty look that was on the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and she had suddenly kept quiet; it was because she had also realized that she had identally let slip of a terrible secret of the Ancient Race.

    Actually, he had already known that the Sanctuary of the Forbidden was a shrine of the True Devil God as he had already been told by Xuan Qiaoqiao and she was quite casual about it, not minding at all.

    He did not know that Xuan Qiaoqiao had told him this only because she waspletely in love with him and she had trusted him as her inner circle. Or else, it was also taboo for her to reveal this to him.

    Ji Yuan, Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen continued to walk for a while in the great hallway but there were no responses from any of the relics.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had a brilliant idea as he turned to Xiang Li and Anyang as he asked them secretly in his soul sea: How do I obtain the spirit divine weapons in this ce and how do I identify them?

    Anyang giggled softly: Our lord has finally remembered us¡­

    Xiang Li was also giggling as she said: There is a time enchantment in this ce. But the strength of the time enchantment varies from relics to relics depending on the profound power of the relics here. The stronger the relics are, the slower the time enchantment and it takes much longer for them to awaken as spirit divine weapons¡­

    Anyang seized to add: Although there are quite a few spirits here in this ce but they are all low level and afraid to appear before our lord. It is only because we are much stronger than them.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Howe I didn''t know that the two of you are my spirit divine weapons?

    Anyang giggled softly: The day that you have decided to make your divine swords our new home, we are your spirit divine weapons. If you die, we won''t die.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly: If I die, I make sure that I drag the two of you along with me. Hahaha¡­

    Anyang and Xiang Li were both giggling andughing jovially as well.

    It was because they know that Ji Yuan was only joking with them; the reason why he had made the divine swords their spiritual attachments were because he hoped that they could live if something were to happen to him.

 Chapter 1057 Finally, a Spirit Divine Weapon

    <h4>Chapter 1057 Finally, a Spirit Divine Weapon</h4>

    It was not before long that Ji Yuan, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had walked 9 miles at the long great hallway.

    It took them over 2 hours.

    And yet, there was no sight that any spirit divine weapon would appear.

    This caused Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng to look at little panicky as she hurried her eyes at the numerous relics that were by the sides.

    She could not help muttering, "Maybe bring this lowly human ve here is a jinx to me."

    Li Yifen pretended not to hear her as she walked on her own.

    Ji Yuan could not resist back a grin, "Maybe you are not destined to own a spirit divine weapon. Not everyone is able to wield one, you know."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Although I may not be able to wield one but the Great Patriarch Sword Saint will be able to wield it for sure."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do you want toe here to obtain a spirit divine weapon and then only to give it to him?"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "He is going to ascend soon and I want to give it to him as a gift so that he will remember me for life."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You know," he could not resist saying. "He is probably lying about the part about ascending to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

    Well, he was actually lying about that as he needed to find an excuse to leave at that time.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed, "Do you think everyone is a liar like you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was exasperated: I will be a liar?! I have never lied before in my life!

    Anyang covered her face as she pointed out: My lord, that statement itself is a lie. Stop deceiving yourself.

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang and he felt indignant that he had been wronged. After all, he felt that he was quite a righteous cultivator.

    Just as he was about to protest loudly to Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, there was a soft yell that hade from Li Yifen.

    It was because a beautiful divine sword with a soft glowing animus was suddenly floating toward Li Yifen and she was astonished.

    It was also a powerful celestial-step divine sword!

    Li Yifen was astonished as she caught hold of the divine sword, "This¡­ it juste to me. I have no idea why¡­"

    There was a delightful look that was on Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng as she hurried to Li Yifen, "If you have no need for it, may I have this spirit divine sword?"

    Li Yifen rolled her eyes sheepishly before she tossed the spirit divine sword to Jun Qianfeng, "If you really want it, you can have it then."

    She actually did not mind at all since she was not here to look for any spirit divine weapons.

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite sheepish: Although a celestial-step divine sword is truly a high grade divine sword, I don''t really need one. Maybe my other maidens can have it if you really want to give it to me¡­

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng looked delighted as she took the spirit divine sword.

    She began to mutter happily, "Although he already have two emperor-step divine swords but a spirit divine sword is a sentient sword and may be able to protect him through his ascension¡­"

    Ji Yuan just rubbed his chin as he said to himself: Well, in order to pass the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint this spirit divine sword, you have to find him first. This may be a little difficult because I don''t intend to appear again. But then, since you want to give it to me, I don''t really mind appearing just once in front of you to get a free celestial-step divine sword¡­

    As he was pondering this, there was a sudden creaking sound in front of them that startled them.

    It was because the gigantic iron gates that were in front of them were being activated and they could hear the loud mechanic swings of the iron gates!

    Li Yifen was stunned, "It seems that the gates of the Inner Sanctuary are opening. How is it possible?"

    Even Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was looking quite stunned, "But isn''t this iron gate supposed to require 7 golden si rings to open?"

    But as she said so, she was further startled to see that there was a carpet of luminous light that appeared from the ground of the gigantic iron gate to the foot of Ji Yuan; it was as though Ji Yuan was being weed to enter the Inner Sanctuary.

    When Li Yifen had saw this scene, she was also stunned.

    Ji Yuan had caused the Inner Sanctuary to open?

    And Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were now both staring at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had also saw the carpet of light that had appeared in front of him and he was staring back at them as he said bitterly, "Don''t look at me like this. I actually didn''t do anything at all. Maybe this light appears to anyone that appears close to it."

    Li Yifen said solemnly, "This shouldn''t be happening at all¡­ this ce is protected by immortal arrays that can withstand the test of time itself."

    Jun Qianfeng nervously turned to Li Yifen to ask, "Should we check the Inner Sanctuary? Maybe there are more powerful spirit divine weapons that are inside the Inner Sanctuary?"

    Li Yifen turned to her to say, "Maybe you should ask Holy Harpy 4444 first."

    Jun Qianfeng unhappily asked, "Why should I ask a lowly human?"

    Li Yifen solemnly said, "Because the Inner Sanctuary seems to wee this lowly human and not us. If you barge inside with this attitude of him, the Inner Sanctuary may even be hostile to you. Then I rather that you stay here with me or we leave this ce."

    Jun Qianfeng looked startled as she stared with shock at Ji Yuan but this time, she dared not murmur a word.

    Ji Yuan was perplexed, "The Inner Sanctuary may not open just for me. Why don''t we explore it together?"

    Li Yifen sighed softly before she said solemnly, "You may not know this but the Inner Sanctuary is a sentient ce. It seems to only wee you."

    Ji Yuan looked startled, "It is sentient?"

    Li Yifen slowly nodded, "Why do you think that it has opened even without collecting the 7 golden si rings? Even if we have the 7 golden si rings to enter the Inner Sanctuary, the ce may not wee us. Why do you think the current Cardinals and the past Cardinals didn''t have the chance to even enter the Inner Sanctuary for the past thousands of years?"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

    Li Yifen said solemnly, "Even if we have the 7 golden si rings to enter the iron gate in front, there is still another gate beyond it. If the Inner Sanctuary doesn''t want us to enter, that gate won''t even open for any of us. But today¡­"

    She pointed at the iron gate and pointed back at the carpet of light that led to Ji Yuan, "But today, it seems to be opened just for you. Who exactly are you?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and answered weakly, "Erm, I am just a lowly human ve."

    Li Yifen: ¡­

    Jun Qianfeng: ¡­

 Chapter 1058 The Golden Coffin

    ?

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly to Li Yifen, "Actually I am just a lowly human ve and I don''t know the reason why the Inner Sanctuary has opened for me¡­"

    But this was a lie.

    Ji Yuan guessed that this may have to do with his previous reincarnation as the True Devil God and he was actually quite curiously about this shrine.

    He was also doubtful that the ''golden body'' of the True Devil God may not be the real thing here because it should not be here in the first ce.

    But nevertheless, he was really curious to see what was inside.

    He merely said, "You don''t mind that I take a look inside?"

    Li Yifen smiled, "If this is your fate to be weed by the Inner Sanctuary then it isn''t right for me to stop you from entering our Inner Sanctuary. But you can allow us to follow you?"

    She has actually never been inside the Inner Sanctuary before even though she is a Cardinal. Therefore, she was quite curious to know what was inside the Inner Sanctuary.

    The previous Cardinal Harpy had merely whispered to her that the Sanctuary of the Forbidden was a tomb and shrine to the True Devil God. It was forbidden to tell anyone about this and could only be whispered.

    Another reason why it was forbidden to mention the name of the True Devil God was that there was a myth that the True Devil God had once been a destroyer of the immortal great abyssals in the Great Abyssal Realm. And that was why the name of the True Devil God must never be mentioned by any of the abyssal races.

    And the Ancient Race considered itself as an abyssal race even though they looked so dissimr to most of the abyssal races.

    But no one doubted that the Ancient Race is an abyssal race because the Ancient Race also cultivates the infernal energies and they are an extremely ancient abyssal race that once dominated the abyssal worlds.

    Li Yifen warned Jun Qianfeng, "Walk behind Holy Harpy 4444 and let him walked in front first. We don''t know how formidable the immortal arrays and traps are in this ce."

    Jun Qianfeng unhappily nodded but she could not resist a cold snide to Ji Yuan, "Why don''t you hurry up?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Thanks for using me as a shield."

    With that Ji Yuan began to walk in front while Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen walked cautiously behind him.

    When Ji Yuan had walked along the carpet of soft lights on the ground to the imposing giant iron gate that was in front of him, he could hear the loud crackling mechanic sounds of the imposing iron gate as it swung opened slowly.

    This imposing iron gate was more than 50m in height!

    Beyond him, there were rows of towering gigantic profound god-beasts of all kinds, with some even reaching 30m in height.

    Ji Yuan did not recognize most of the god-beasts though but he continued to walk quietly along this dark hallway while Li Yifen and Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng followed behind him.

    He muttered weakly as he looked at his surroundings cautiously, "This ce looks like it is built for the giants and not for us¡­."

    Li Yifen also could not help making a soft gasp, "Without the 9 golden si rings and the true bloodline essence of the Cardinal Priestess, we are actually entering into the Inner Sanctuary¡­"

    As Ji Yuan walked along this great hallway for some time, he soone to yet another imposing iron gate that was also 50m in height and this one wasid with golden runes on it.

    Li Yifen said to Ji Yuan, "This is the inner gate of the Inner Sanctuary that I have told you earlier. Whether you can enter into the Inner Sanctuary depends on the sentient will of the Inner Sanctuary. But don''t ever force your way or attack the gate lest you will trigger the formidable immortal arrays that are in this ce. Then we are doomed to die in here."

    Her warnings were actually unnecessary because this iron gate with golden runes soon dissolved into a shimmering golden portal that looked like golden blood.

    This startled Ji Yuan while Li Yifen eximed with delight, "We can actually enter into the Inner Sanctuary?"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng could not help herself as she gasped softly, "I find it really hard to believe that the sentient will of the Inner Sanctuary actually wees this lowly human ve¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had frozen because the cold gaze of Li Yifen was upon her.

    Li Yifen hummed coldly to her, "Be respectful to 4444 and be cautious of what you are saying in this ce. This ce is holy to our Ancient Race and you should learn not to mutter any rubbish while you are here lest you will be heard and it will be ountable on you. If so, then I may not be able to help or save you."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng immediately turned ashen as she nodded weakly.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand did not feel any fear or reverent. Rather he felt as though he was finally home and there was a familiar feeling about this ce.

    Although he was startled by the golden shimmering portal, he was soon excited to explore the Inner Sanctuary as he wasted no time in stepping into it.

    He was in jovial mood as he said to Anyang and Xiang Li: Maybe we can find some good profound treasures in this ce!

    Anyang answered him with a weak smile: Are you thinking of looting from yourself? This isme.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was shouting behind Ji Yuan as he entered into the shimmering portal, "Wait for us!"

    After Ji Yuan had passed through the shimmering golden portal, he soon saw that he was in a huge white chamber.

    Compared to the dark hallway earlier, this white chamber was like another world and it was also a beautiful ce with many imposing pirs and colorful murals.

    But what had caught Ji Yuan''s attention was the sight of an imposing golden coffin that was chained in mid-air at the end of this chamber.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had also stepped through the golden shimmering portal and they had appeared behind him.

    And they too, had their attentions on the golden coffin that was at the edge of this imposing white chamber that stood over 100m in height.

    All these spaces and troubles just to host a golden coffin, this was too exaggerating. Not to mention that were also numerous immortal arrays that were in this ce.

    Ji Yuan stared at the golden coffin at the end of this white great chamber as he blinked his eyes, "So, this ce is the shrine to the True Devil God and in that coffin, is his golden body?"

 Chapter 1059 Little Yui the Dark Sword

    <h4>Chapter 1059 Little Yui the Dark Sword</h4>

    Ji Yuan, Li Yifen and Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng were all staring at the imposing golden coffin that was in front of them.

    This golden coffin was actually 10 times the size of a normal coffin.

    Ji Yuan turned around and weakly asked Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng, "The True Devil God is a giant?"

    Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng: ¡­

    They could not believe that Ji Yuan was still able to crack a joke at this suspenseful moment.

    Li Yifen muttered weakly, "How should I know?"

    Jun Qianfeng frowned, "Why don''t you go forward and check?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Can''t you see that there are at least 10 powerful arrays that are guarding this golden coffin? Do you want me to die by going forward?"

    Jun Qianfeng could not resist a soft chuckle, "I am amazed that you can actually tell. Not bad for a lowly cultivator like you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to look at Li Yifen with a weak smile, "Do you have a solution for this?"

    Li Yifen was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly asked her this question.

    She asked, "Why are you asking me this question?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "That is because I am horrible in my cultivation knowledge of the profound arrays and formations. So I need some guidance."

    Li Yifen: ¡­

    Jun Qianfeng: ¡­

    Li Yifen slowly said, "Maybe you try to trigger it first and then we shall see if we may be able to handle it. The immortal arrays here are actually more intricate than I''ve thought."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly: I guess that I may have to ask Anyang or Xiang Li to see if they are able to help me¡­

    Anyang immediately said to him: My lord, the immortal arrays here are beyond me.

    Xiang Li giggled softly: Same here for me.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then I am screwed?!

    All of a sudden, there was a rumbling voice that echoed from the golden coffin and it startled Ji Yuan, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock, "What the heck?! There is someone inside this golden coffin¡­"

    The rumbling voice echoed, "You have a familiar aura. Come and touch my coffin with your hands."

    Ji Yuan gulped, "Are you kidding me? Before I can touch your coffin, I may be ripped apart by the immortal arrays in this ce¡­."

    But although he was saying so, he had already taken several steps in front.

    It was because Ji Yuan had the curiosity of a cat and also because he felt that this may be rted to him.

    But as he did not want to risk himself unnecessary, so he began to disy his immortal scabbard that contained his divine swords and had stepped forward; in case he was being attacked by the immortal arrays, he would quickly disy his divine swords to defend himself.

    This was a precautious measure.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was suddenly startled when she saw the immortal scabbard that Ji Yaun was carrying; it was because she had recognized it as the same immortal scabbard that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint had hidden under his cloak.

    As she was paying careful attention to the Great Patriarch Sword Saint, she had actually noticed his hidden scabbard even though it was only shown for just a brief instance.

    She gasped softly as she stared at the back of Ji Yuan and indeed, they were of simr height and build¡­

    This lowly human ve is actually the Great Patriarch Sword Saint?!

    As she thought of this, she was immediately flustered and was ashamed of her behavior toward Ji Yuan earlier¡­

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was walking cautiously toward the golden coffin.

    To his astonishment, the invisible immortal arrays that his divine sense had sense seemed to have made an opening just for him to walk forward and did not make an attack on him even though he could feel the powerful killing intents of the many immortal arrays in this ce.

    As he approached the golden coffin, all of a sudden Ji Yuan had suddenly painfully yelled aloud!

    It was because his soul sea was suddenly stirring wildly and causing him to experience a great pain that shook his entire body.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both startled when they saw that Ji Yuan was in great pains and that his soul sea seemed to be boiling.

    Even Aura was startled and she was greatly frightened: Mas-ster, what is going on?

    Ji Yuan''s suddenly yell had also startled Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng as well.

    From Ji Yuan''s soul sea, a runic dark sword could suddenly be seen.

    This startled Xiang Li and Anyang as they did not know why it was inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    But Aura was able to recognize it as she stammered, "Little Yui, you are awakened?"

    Little Yui was the one that had been teaching Aura how to assume the form of a little girl instead of a Divine Tree in secret.

    When Ji Yuan saw this dark sword from his soul sea, he was the most startled.

    It was because he had immediately recognized it; he had remembered being attacked by this dark sword when he was at the Goddess Star Pce but no one at that time believes him.

    And now this dark sword was emerging from his soul sea.

    It was a beautiful dark sword that wasid with many golden runes.

    Previously, the golden runes on the dark sword were not visible to the eyes; it was because Little Yui had absorbed plenty of soul energies by now.

    All of a sudden Little Yui had taken the form of a five-year-old adorable girl in a ck dress as she said mncholy in his soul sea: Master. I am Little Yui. Do you remember me?

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he witnessed the dark sword transforming into a little girl in ck in front of him: I am your master?

    Little Yui sighed woefully: Master, you have really forgotten about your Little Yui¡­

    Then she said firmly: But today, you will be able to remember Little Yui because you have finally found your body.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he did not quite understand what was being said to him.

    So, he asked Xiang Li and Anyang: Xiang Li, Anyang. What do you think?

    Xiang Li giggled: I know that a maiden can give birth to a child but I didn''t know that a man like my Big Brother can give birth to a child too.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

 Chapter 1060 The Golden Avatar

    ?

    When Ji Yuan had given a loud painful yell, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng could only see Ji Yuan was frozen in ce; this caused them to be greatly perplexed but since no harm was visible on Ji Yuan, they could only quietly watch behind him.

    The reason why they did not try to disturb Ji Yuan was also because they had thought that Ji Yuan was deep in focus as he tried to unravel the invisible threads of the immortal arrays in this ce.

    But actually, Ji Yuan was simply talking in his soul sea.

    And he was talking to a little girl in ck dress that was called Little Yui.

    He had given up on consulting Xiang Li for any meaningful advice because she was not inly not connecting to his situation at hand and waspletely useless as usual.

    But Xiang Li''s calmness had also given Ji Yuan a clue that this dark sword or profound darkness did not mean him any harm; as the Goddess Tear, Xiang Li is averse to any evil presence and anything that did not turn her off means that he is quite safe to interact with it.

    Ji Yuan asked Little Yui, "Erm, I am your master?"

    Little Yui nodded quietly, "You are the reincarnation of my master. Little Yui has waited for a long, long time for you to return. When master is broken that fateful day, Little Yui is also broken. And she seals me in that dark ce."

    Ji Yuan was smiling weakly; that ce was actually the Goddess Star Pce and the Great Beyond Goddess had sealed the dark sword that the True Devil God had carried in it.

    He slowly said to Little Yui: I actually don''t remember much about the True Devil God and I don''t really care much. I am Ji Yuan. Little Yui, do you want to follow me from now onward?

    Little Yui chuckled adorably: Little Yui is willing to follow master again! I am your sword! Your Little Yui! Master finally remembers me!

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: I didn''t remember you. These spirit fairies are so hard tomunicate with¡­

    But Little Yui giggled: Of course, master remembers me or else master won''t make Little Yui your sword again.

    Xiang Li immediately protested: Little Yui, I am Big Brother''s sword, alright?

    Little Yui looked at Xiang Li and giggled, "I know Big Sister Xiang Li. You are master''s faithful sword too. You have saved master many times.

    Xiang Li was suddenly giggling too: I did? Heehee. Yes I did. From now onward, I am your Big Sister Xiang Li!

    Anyang frowned: Don''t forget about me too.

    Little Yui giggled: You are Second Big Sister Anyang. Second Big Sister Anyang is also master''s faithful sword and saved master many times too!

    Anyang giggled with great delight: Little Yui, then you shall be our little sister Little Yui. And Aura the youngest.

    Aura muttered: I am the youngest?!

    Anyang ignored Aura and did not reply to her.

    Both Aura and Little Yui are actually much older than Anyang and Xiang Li but spirit fairies all have a different growth rate. So technically, Anyang and Xiang Li are both older because they are more mature while Little Yui and Aura are both still little children.

    Ji Yuan asked Little Yui: What is this golden coffin in front of me and this voice?

    Little Yui happily answered: Master, you ought to touch it. ''He'' is waiting for you to touch the golden coffin tomunicate with you. This is your golden avatar.

    Ji Yuan was looking quite startled: My avatar?

    Little Yui nodded: Indeed! When master''s real body died, all your avatars will also perish as well. This avatar carries yourst will and create a sanctuary for you. To this day, it has been waiting for you to return.

    She paused to add: Your avatar won''t hurt you. So master can just walk forward without any worries. Little Yui is also awakened because this avatar has restored Little Yui too¡­

    Little Yui would not have awakened so soon but the avatar of this ce had freely given her the soul energies of the spirit divine relics that were at the Outer Sanctuary.

    And hence, Little Yui was now able to manifest in front of Ji Yuan now.

    Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed but he got bolder as he stepped forward to touch the golden coffin that was in front of him.

    This time round, he was no longer moving so cautiously and he had walked casually for more than 100m before he finally reached the chained golden coffin.

    He felt no fear but a weird sense of familiarity as he ced his hand gently on the suspended golden coffin that was in the air.

    As he touched the golden coffin, his soul seemed to be taken to a great void and he was floating in the darkness.

    All of a sudden, he could see a dark figure that had appeared in front of him and there was a faint outline of a golden animus around this dark figure.

    The dark figure said solemnly, "I am you and you are me. Although the golden body in this golden coffin isn''t the real you but it is condensed with yourst remaining profound strength. Today, I will be returning your immortal golden body to you."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "My immortal golden body?"

    The dark figure exined solemnly, "Even though you are already carrying the true golden body of the True Devil God but your immortal golden body has not fully manifest yet. Your avatar''s golden body will be able to awaken your golden body to the immortal golden body. Today, I shall be returning your immortal golden body to you¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "Then you will die right?"

    The dark figure merely said, "This is my destiny to wait for you to return. I am merely your avatar."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "But I am curious about something. Can you tell me before you are gone? Why are you here and what is the rtionship between the Ancient Race and the Spiritas Race?"

    The dark figure said, "They are the same. The True Devil God is the ancestor god of the Spiritas Race. It is he who suppressed the cultivations of the Ancient Race to create the Spiritas Race. While the Ancient Race can cultivate the infernal energies and the spiritual energies, the Spiritas Race can only cultivate the spiritual energies¡­"

    Then he added, "This ce is where the first of the Spiritas Race hade from. The priesthood of the Ancient Race is actually dedicated to the True Devil God. We are linked in mind and soul. You actually want to ask me about the profound darkness, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "That''s right."

    The dark figure seemed to smile, "The profound darkness is actually the great abyssal energies which only the True Devil God can wield. The True Devil God is actually the true master of all the abyssals¡­"

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "The true master of all the abyssals?!"

    The dark figure nodded slowly, "He is the first of all the abyssals and the Ancient Race is the second. The subsequent abyssal races are all corrupted by the infernal energies and are all monstrosities unlike the True Devil God and the Ancient Race. That is why the True Devil God wanted to create a new realm that is incorruptible by the abyssal energies. That is why he created the Spirit Divine Realm and Immortal the Greater Spirit Realm."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So the True Devil God is the creator of the Spirit Divine Realm and the Immortal Greater Spirit Realm¡­"

    The dark figure answered, "The new realm is supposed to be a paradise for the Spiritas Race and will be freed from abyssal influences of the abyssal worlds. Hence, it is hidden from the abyssals that can feed upon the spiritual energies. My role here in this realm is to convert the Ancient Race to the Spiritas Race and to bring them to the new Spirit Realm."

    Then he said sadly, "But before this great work can be done, the other Gods of the Abyssals had waged war upon the Immortal Entropy Realm. Although they cannot find the Spirit Realm that the True Devil God had created but they had found the Immortal Entropy Realm. Hence, rift portals were opened from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm to the Immortal Entropy Realm. And so began a terrible immortal war between the Chao Race of the Immortal Entropy Realm and the Great Abyssal Race of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

    His voice had suddenly be woeful, "Even the True Devil God could not help but be embroiled in this immortal great war¡­"

    Ji Yuan could not resist a murmur, "So that is how I''ve met the Goddess Destiny?"

    The dark figure looked startled, "You remember Destiny? You have met her?"

    The dark figure scanned Ji Yuan''s memories before he said solemnly, "It seems that you do not really know who Destiny really is."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    He muttered weakly, "I know that she is an immortal oracle. Her divination seems quite urate¡­"

    The dark figure said solemnly, "She is the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny of the Chaos Race. She is the ruler of the entire Chaos Race. The two of you have fought numerous times during the great immortal wars of the two races."

    This time, Ji Yuan was truly astonished as he weakly muttered, "She is this powerful?! Then why is she in the Spirit Divine Realm¡­"

    He was now panicky thinking if he has offended Destiny now, whether unwittingly or wittingly.

    The dark figure answered him, "I have no answers for that as it probably happened after your death. But do you want to know why you have died?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "That is a good question¡­"

    -----------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This chapter is a little long so the next chapter will reveal more about the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess.

 Chapter 1061 The Great Beyond Divinity

    ?

    Ji Yuan asked bitterly, "Yeah, that is a good question. Are you trying to tell me that the Great Beyond Goddess had killed me? Cos, I''ve already known that."

    The dark figure solemnly, "That is why you have died and not how you have died."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly, "Alright then. Tell me then."

    The dark figure sighed heavily, "You have died a most horrible and undeserved death¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I actually don''t mind dying at that time, you know. I like this reincarnation way better because I got to bang some of the most peerless maidens around¡­

    The dark figure gave another heavy sigh before saying slowly, "During the great immortal wars between the Chaos Race and the Great Abyssal Race, you are driven with madness to fight against the powerful abyssal gods. In short, you have chosen to stand on the side of the Chaos Race against your own race¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought with a frown: I am the same race as the ugly Abyssals? Never!

    "It was during that time that you are besieged by 13 of the most powerful abyssal gods. That fateful battle ended with you victorious and killing 10 of the most powerful abyssal gods. Although you have won but you have also absorbed the dark abyssal soul energies unwittingly¡­"

    Ji Yuan remembered that the abyssals gained some of their cultivation strength by killing the others. If the True Devil God is also an abyssal then he will be able to absorb the soul energies of the abyssals by killing them.

    "The True Devil God actually did not want to absorb their soul energies because their evil soul energies will only corrupt him. But he did not have a choice and the soul energies transformed him to a Great Beyond Divinity¡­"

    This time Ji Yuan could not resist asking, "Great Beyond Divinity? I have heard of True Divinity and Beyond Divinity but I have not heard of this Great Beyond Divinity."

    The dark figure seemed to smile, "A Great Beyond Divinity is naturally stronger than a Beyond Divinity. And you are the first to have ever reach this pinnacle of divinity to be a Great Beyond Divinity. But this is also reason why you have fallen¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    The dark figure said mncholy, "The blood lusts of the 10 abyssal gods are like a curse upon you. Their nefarious evils are as immortal as their godly beings. Although you have be a Great Beyond Divinity but you have also inherited their abyssal instincts to wrought destruction upon the 6 Immortal Realms. You can''t kill yourself too because the primal instincts of the 10 abyssal gods prevent you from doing so and moreover, you have an almost indestructible immortal golden body. However, there is goddess that rivals you when you are a Beyond Divinity. So you thought of forcing her to be a Great Beyond Divinity¡­"

    Ji Yuan immediately gasped, "You mean the Great Beyond Goddess?!"

    The dark figure slowly nodded, "She isn''t known by that name in the past. After she had killed you, she has assumed the name of the Great Beyond Goddess for her and for her immortal realm."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So when she has be a goddess of the Great Beyond Divinity then she has assumed the immortal title of the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    "That''s right."

    It was now Ji Yuan''s turn to sigh softly, "The True Devil God likes the Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    He had suddenly remembered the murals in the Goddess Star Pce that depicted the battle between the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess. Anyone that saw it would think that they were on opposing sides.

    But the true story was that the True Devil God could not control the abyssal soul energies in his body anymore and he wished to die in the hands of a goddess that he had admired for a long time.

    For that, he had purposely hurt her by exterminating her race and to force her to gain their powers to fight him.

    By the time the Great Beyond Goddess had killed the True Devil God, it was toote.

    When the True Devil God had died, he merely said silently: May I never be reincarnated as an abyssal ever again¡­

    The dark figure said quietly, "You seem to have know the whole truth now. Now that you have learnt the whole truth, you should continue the legacy of the True Devil God and renew your rtionship with the Great Beyond Goddess. Or else, this will be his biggest regret."

    Ji Yuan sighed woefully, "But this will be to my regrets. In this life, I can''t be as faithful as the True Devil God to the Great Beyond Goddess. Also in this life, I have many confidants and I love all of them. And the maiden that I love the most in this life will always be my Jiajia. I am afraid that I can''t devote myself to the Great Beyond Goddess. Also, she is a Great Beyond Divinity now and I am just an ant in front of her. She won''t remember me or care about this puny reincarnation of mine."

    The dark figure said nonchntly, "I am merely your avatar. I can''t decide for you. This is all that I can say to you."

    Ji Yuan heaved a soft sigh, "That is good. It is because in this life, I just want to be myself and not the True Devil God¡­"

    He just wants to be stronger so that he could be able to help his Jiajia when he had emerged from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The dark figure said to Ji Yuan, "I''ve already said everything that I ought to say to you. This will be myst words to you¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What do you mean?"

    The dark figure said solemnly, "Now that the True Devil God is back, there is no need for an avatar to exist. I have only sustained myself through the immortal arrays of this sanctuary and should not have existed after the death of the True Devil God¡­"

    "Step forward. I have used condensed your avatar''s immortal golden body with all my profound cultivation. Without your true body, it cannot bepleted. Therefore, step forward and receive back your immortal golden body¡­"

    This was not a request.

    And Ji Yuan was suddenly being pulled forward and he had also suddenly cked out!

    Outside, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng could see that Ji Yuan had frozen in ce while he was touching the golden coffin.

    But all of a sudden, a powerful profound force exploded around him and had sucked Ji Yuan into the golden coffin!

    This stunned Li Yifen and Jun Qianfengpletely.

    Li Yifen asked, "What is going on here?"

    Jun Qianfeng was in great disbelief, "He just disappears just like this? How is it possible?"

    Li Yifen tried to deduct, "I think he may get suck into the golden coffin¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng was startled, "Do you think that this golden coffin really contains the True Devil God and he is sucking Holy Harpy 4444''s life force now in order to revive himself?"

    Li Yifen was startled by Jun Qianfeng''s words, "You¡­ may be right on this¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng panicky asked, "What should we do now?"

 Chapter 1062 The Merging

    ?

    Li Yifen said slowly to Jun Qianfeng, "I feel that 4444 is not yet dead. We ought to wait for a little while."

    Jun Qianfeng slowly nodded, ''This lowly¡­"

    She quickly changed her tone to say, "Holy Harpy 4444 won''t die this easily."

    Li Yifen nodded, "Let''s wait then."

    But this wait had caused them to wait for almost 3 days!

    Ji Yuan had actually cked out for 3 days and it won''t be 3 dayster that he would then emerged.

    During the past 3 days, his avatar''s golden skeleton was being fused into his own body.

    Actually, Ji Yuan''s skeleton is the True Devil Body and will only get even stronger when his cultivation realm has increased so he did not need to merge with his old reincarnation''s golden body, especially when it is only just an avatar.

    However, this avatar is an immortal golden body, has immortal strength and possesses an immortal cultivation.

    The avatar is now merging with Ji Yuan to awaken his current golden body to a greater strength and thepatibility of such an astonishing merging is a 100% degree!

    All avatars are clones of a true original body and therefore they are weaker than the original.

    Also, when an avatar takes sufficient damage, they would be dematerialized so there won''t be a golden body at all.

    However this avatar of the True Devil God seems to understand what would happen to the True Devil God and has been preparing for his death.

    This could be said to be the final will of the True Devil God!

    The True Devil God hadmanded his avatar, "If my future reincarnation isn''t an abyssal and if you think that he deserves it then you shall merge your avatar with him¡­"

    But because the True Devil God knows that it needed something more for his golden avatar, so he cut off his golden bone marrow and gave it to the avatar to nurture it inside the golden coffin.

    This golden bone marrow was the true priceless profound treasure!

    Not only that, the True Devil God had also purified it just like he had purified the Ancient Race into the Spiritas Race so this tiny golden bone marrow would not be tainted by the evil concepts of the Great Abyssal Race.

    In short, this Sanctuary of the Forbidden was actually constructed by the True Devil God himself in preparation for this day.

    Over time, the avatar had shaped this golden bone marrow into a golden skeleton of the True Devil God as he waited for his return.

    Today was the day that the avatar could finally return the golden immortal body of the True Devil God to his new reincarnation!

    It had been a long, long time!

    And what is more, the True Devil God has not been reincarnated as an abyssal and he is a human!

    If the True Devil God has a choice, he would not have constructed the Sanctuary of the Forbidden in this world where everything begins.

    But this world is where everything begins and through his divinations into the mists of time, he knows that one day, his reincarnation will also appear in this ce.

    However, as he did not want his history to be repeated, hemanded his avatar not to acknowledge his new reincarnation if he is a an abyssal.

    Although this was hismand but the possibility of reincarnating as an abyssal was still abnormally high.

    So, the True Devil God did not send some of the Spiritas Race away but he had also purposely allowed the humans, the Deste Races, the Chaos Race and the other non-abyssal races to remain even though they could barely cultivate in this ce, with the humans the worse cultivators among them as the spiritual force energies in this world is extremely rare.

    He had said, "I rather be a weak human cultivator than an abyssal¡­"

    However, he still had no idea what race his new reincarnation would be.

    But if this new True Devil God is strong enough then he would be eventuallye to the Nightfall Heights in order to obtain blessings from the True Religion that he had created and may one day obtained his golden bone marrow.

    But unfortunately, things changed.

    The True Faith of the True Religion that he had created was no longer as strong in his era than now as the Ancient Race which was also called the Ancient Old Ones began to lose influences and strength; the Ancient Race is no longer the rulers of this world.

    He may have foretold that his reincarnaton may havee to this world but he had not foretold that his reincarnation was never born in this world to begin with and that he would be a celestial from the Celestial Realm instead.

    Also, 3 of the Immortal Great Abyssal Gods in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm had survived. Among them is one Abyssal Totem that is also called the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, the lord of the terror.

    To this day, he had been plotting to destroy the Ancient Race and the Immortal Ancient Race in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm.

    It was because the Ancient Race had the same origin as the True Devil God and he was afraid that one day the True Devil God may return via the Ancient Race!

    It took him and the other two Great Abyssal Gods a long time to recover from their fatal injuries that were dealt by the True Devil God but eventually, they had returned as the trio rulers of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm and had even suppressed the Chaos Race of the Entropy Realm.

    And so, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had finally found the opportunity to descend to the Dark Abyssal Realm and to destroy the roots of the Ancient Race once and for all!

    While Ji Yuan was in a deep slumber as he merged with the avatar of the True Devil God, the dark figure had appeared in Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    He was quite astonished to see that there were 4 spirit fairies inside Ji Yuan''s soul sea; they were Anyang, Xiang Li, Aura and Little Yui.

    He was just expecting to see Little Yui only.

    And so, he said to them, "Don''t worry, I won''t harm him¡­"

    Little Yui nodded, "I know. Thank you for helping me too."

    The dark figure smiled, "It is good that the True Devil God has finally found his steady sword again. Little Yui, in the future, the True Devil God will need your help."

    Little Yui smiled, "Master shall reign in the divine heavens once again and Little Yui shall follow him everywhere."

    The dark figure had suddenly halted above Ji Yuan''s soul sea and he was looking quite startled as he could see a beyond divinity profound treasure that was deep inside and this was the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    But what astonished him was not that Ji Yuan had a beyond divinity profound treasure but because he could feel a familiar feeling on this Golden Natal Divine Pearl and he had suddenly recalled that it hade from the Great Beyond Goddess!

    The dark figure gasped with great shock, "Is it all fate?"

    Then he started to turn to look at Xiang Li and saw that she too, had a familiar feel. This caused him to be further startled.

 Chapter 1063 Bad Reports

    ?

    In the Royal City of Nefarious, the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was in an urgent meeting with his 3 royal princes, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal.

    Behind him, shrouded with ck curtains was the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo who was 3 times the size of the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    While the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was the abyssal king of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and soon to be the emperor, he was merely just a puppet in the eyes of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Today, the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog had a blue and ugly ck face; it was because the 10th rank mobile fortress profound monster had returned with bad news for him.

    Not only did the immortal apprentice of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim had died but they had also lost quite badly, failing to capture the Nightfall Heights and the Cardinal Priestess.

    All their intel pointed to a declining Ancient Race and out of the blue, a mysterious and ancient Great Patriarch Sword Saint had emerged.

    This information was of course being ryed to them by their mole within the Nightfall Heights and the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog had already learnt of this great defeat way before the return of his defeated abyssal army.

    Prince Gong Rosh said panicky, "We don''t even know the existence of this Great Patriarch Sword Saint. He is said to have disappeared thousands of years ago¡­"

    Prince Gong Meshech was also saying panicky, "The only threat that we have calcted is the Cardinal Tribune. He has entered into seclusion to ascend as an immortal. If he is sessful then there is a small window in which he can fight us as an immortal¡­"

    "But even then, he won''t be a true immortal and that is why we have the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim there. It is unthinkable for anyone to be able to kill him. I have heard that this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is merely at the False Immortal level and that means that he is only at the 8th cultivation realm. How is it possible for an 8th realm False Immortal to defeat a peaked 8th realm True Immortal?"

    Prince Gong Tubal pointed out, "He has two emperor-step divine swords and he may even be a Sword Deity. If he is a Sword Deity then this may be possible."

    Prince Gong Meshech argued with great disbelief, "This is not the most exaggerating part. He can actually tank two of our powerful Deity Destroying Cannons¡­"

    When he had said that, Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal were silenced; it was too unlikeable that anyone could survive a st from their powerful Deity Destroying Cannon.

    One must know that they had built 6 of these powerful Deity Destroying Cannons and had installed it in the mountain citadel of their super mobile fortress.

    The profound power of the Deity Destroying Cannon was so destructive that after using it, it had to be cooled down for several hours before it can be used again.

    That was the reason why they had constructed 6 of these Deity Destroying Cannon at a huge cost to the royal treasury.

    Due to the destructive nature of these Deity Destroying Cannons and the vast amount of profound power that were required to empower it, the 6 Deity Destroying Cannon had to be linked together to arge profound power storage as it was incapable of firing on its own.

    Thisrge profound power storage could only handle the profound power surge of two Deity Destroying Cannons at a single time before enough profound power could be generated again after several hours.

    Although the Deity Destroying Cannons were extremely powerful, it had its weakness.

    The reason why they had prepared 6 Deity Destroying Cannons instead of just 2 was because they were afraid that their enemies may seize the opportunity to destroy the Deity Destroying Cannons once they realized how powerful it is.

    The Deity Destroying Cannons were a backup contingency just in case Immortal Abyssal Nephilim would encounter some tricky problems.

    It may not be used at all.

    But if it is used, they could only see two possibilities;

    One: The Ancient Old Ones has activated their formidable defensive arrays and one of the Deity Destroying Cannon may be used to disable all their defensive shields with just a shot.

    Two: To kill the Cardinal Tribune if he emerges or some other powerful opponent.

    Even though they already nted a mole inside the Nightfall Heights but the Ancient Race was more numerous and this was their strongest stronghold with numerous secrets.

    A single profound st of the Deity Destroying Cannon was so powerful that not even the Immortal Abyssal Nephilim would be able to survive through its intense profound power.

    But ordingly, to their reports, this Great Patriarch Sword Saint was able to tank two of the Deity Destroying Cannon.

    This was just not possible!

    This time round, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo rumbled behind the ck curtains. "No 8th realm immortals will be able to survive a st from the Deity Destroying Cannon. We know that the Ancient Race may still have some False Immortals and the Deity Destroying Cannon is created to take them out. Even if this Great Patriarch Sword Saint have 2 emperor-step divine swords, he still would not be able to survive two sts at the same time¡­"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo swept his deep voice from the ck curtains and his words instilled fear in all the listeners. "Therefore, he must be a 9th realm high immortal. This is the only logical exnation!"

    He did not know that Ji Yuan had survived through the 81 purple lightning tribtion, a divine cmity that is only reserved for the upper 9th realm immortals. Therefore, his body has already been tempered to withstand the Deity Destroying Cannon. Also, because he had Anyang and Aura to aid him during the battle.

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog nodded anxiously, "But what is our next step now? Now that things have be ugly on both sides. We didn''t know that such a powerful figure has actually existed on their side. This time we are truly careless. Should we send a more powerful army this time to take over the Nightfall Heights?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo raised his wicked ws, "This time round, I shall pay a visit to the Nightfall Heights to subdue them. No matter how strong this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is, he is iparable against a True God of the Great Abyssal Race. Moreover, judging from the reports, he did not escape unscathed from the battle too. So, his cultivation strength iscking after all."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was now smiling wryly, "With Ancestor Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo going to the Nightfall Heights this time, this Great Patriarch Sword Saint is going to be dead very soon."

    Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal were all smiling too, "All hail our Ancestor Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo! All hail the lineage of the Xi Gongs!"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was already thinking how he should rule the Dark Abyssal Realm as its new emperor. Maybe he should start on an ambitious one road, one empire n that he had been nning for a long time.

    All of a sudden, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had violently destroyed part of his throne seat with his wicked ws.

    This startled the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog and the 3 Princes.

    "What is it?" The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog could not help himself as he asked nervously.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo frowned furiously, "I''ve just received a transmission from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. The Chaos Race has actually destroyed our garrison in the Entropy Realm and they have refused to pay us tribute anymore¡­"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was astonished, "The Chaos Race actually has the tenacity to war against us?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo growled, "We actually don''t have much of an upper hand against the Chaos Race and we have technically only won marginally. In return for peace, they were forced to allow an abyssal garrison in their Dark Entropy Realm. Naturally, we have already suspected that they will attack us once they have elected their new Chaos Emperor Sovereign so we have already actually made preparations when this dayes¡­"

    "However, it seems that this time we have miscalcted."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal: ???

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo said angrily, "Not only have the Chaos Race destroyed our garrison, they have actually invaded the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm to demand tribute in return! Added to these woes, the Chaos Race have even injured the True Abyssal God Cthulhu and killed the True Abyssal God Baal!"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Meshech and Prince Gong Tubal were all in shock, "How it is possible?!"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo angrily shook himself, "It seems that their First Empress Sovereign Destiny is back!"

    Author Note:

    1. In the next chapter, JY will be back! I need to write this chapter on the side of the viins first.

    2. Well, Destiny is actually being forced to start a war:X

 Chapter 1064 The Immortal Heavenly Wrath

    ?

    In the Royal City of Nefarious the Nefarious Blood Kingdom where the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had just ragingly spoken the name of the First Empress Sovereign Destiny of the Chaos Race, there was a sudden movement in the red heavens above.

    It was actually an auspicious omen from the heavens but it was also a disturbing one as the shockwaves that had just been created were enough to floor the weaker cultivators.

    The red heavens were opening up and a coiling red serpent could be seen forming from the raging red stormy clouds that were shing with forks of red lightning.

    This shocked the Great Abyssal King Diablo and the other 3 royal princes!

    It was because a peaked abyssal cultivator was about to ascend as an immortal!

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was calmer as he coolly said, "It is the Cardinal Tribune? This is a pointless attempt. Even if he could ascend as a true immortal, he is but an ant. He does not know that the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm is already firmly in my hands and I have legions of immortal abyssals."

    Prince Gong Rosh took the courage to ask, "Maybe it is that Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo smirked coldly, "He can''t do a thing now."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog asked curiously, "Why is that so?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diabloughed coldly, "That is because he can''t use his sword domains from anything from a week to a month. The more powerful his sword domains are, the harder it is for him to gather his sword intentions together. Why do you think that he did not show up until the veryst minute?"

    When the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog and the 3 royal princes had heard the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, they were allughing jovially.

    Prince Gong Meshech quicklyughed, "Let me lead the vanguard army to the Nightfall Heights. Maybe I can even raze the ce to the ground and bring the Cardinal Priestess to my father the king here."

    He was eager to im the credit to impress his father the king.

    "This shall be granted to you," the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog smiled.

    -

    -

    -

    Inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden.

    Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng had been waiting for the past 3 days and they were starting to get panicky. It had been so long since Ji Yuan had disappeared presumably in the golden coffin and they had waited long enough.

    By now, the prot¨¦g¨¦s under their charge must be worried about their whereabouts.

    Li Yifen sighed softly, "We can''t wait here forever¡­"

    "But if we exit this ce then we can nevere back again," Jun Qianfeng reminded her.

    Li Yifen sighed heavily, "But we don''t know if 4444 is dead or alive now."

    Jun Qianfeng asked softly, "4444 isn''t his real name, am I right? What is his real name?"

    Li Yifen was quite perplexed that Jun Qianfeng had actually asked her for Ji Yuan''s real name. She thought that maybe her daughter wanted to engrave his tombstone or something with his name on it so she answered, "Ji Yuan. You may call him Ji Yuan."

    Jun Qianfeng muttered weakly, "Ji¡­ Yuan¡­ Ji Yuan¡­ I hope that he is not dead¡­"

    Ji Yuan was of course not dead.

    He was only in a deep slumber as the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God was merging into his body.

    During his deep slumber, Ji Yuan had a weird dream.

    He dreamt that he was admiring the view in a sceneryke when he saw a even more beautiful view of a peerless beautiful maiden who was bathing in theke.

    He had traveled the 3000 great worlds but he was never moved by any maiden but she was different; she had immediately attracted his attention.

    In this dream, Ji Yuan could not see the face of this peerless maiden but he knows that she was very beautiful and she hadpletely captivated his heart.

    However, he did not want to approach or disturb this peerless maiden because she was bathing in theke and she was naked.

    He did not want to startle her or to frighten her with his appearance and so he was contended to watch this beautiful sight quietly.

    But somehow, he was being cursed; he was such a bad peeping tom that he was discovered by this peerless maiden. And this peerless maiden was the Great Beyond Goddess¡­

    He spent a long time trying to protest his innocent, swearing by the Great Void that it was an ident¡­

    Then he had also remembered another peerless maiden by the name of Destiny; she was the Sovereign Empress of the Chaos Race and they had fought several times. Eventually he hade to her aid and fought his own abyssal race¡­

    Ji Yuan''s past memories were fragmented as he continued to dream.

    But all of a sudden, he gave a loud yell when the golden avatar had beenpletely assimted into his body.

    The dark figure had also disappeared from Ji Yuan''s soul sea as everything had beenpleted.

    And Ji Yuan had pushed the heavy lid of the golden coffin opened and he had finally emerged from his sleep.

    When he had suddenly emerged from the golden coffin, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were both greatly startled as they were still discussing whether to stay or leave when they saw him.

    Ji Yuan could feel that his body seemed to be much stronger now and a golden animus had formed around him, startling him greatly.

    He had also startled Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng because in front of them Ji Yuan had the profound animus of a 9th realm immortal!

    Jun Qianfeng gasped with shock, "Upper 9th realm immortal?! He is really the Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    She had of course recognized his profound signature when Ji Yuan was forced to disyed it now.

    Even Li Yifen had recognized Ji Yuan as the masked man that had saved her Ancient Race and she was suddenly flustering; it was because she had suddenly remembered that she had been banged by such a powerful man for so many times¡­

    As Ji Yuan had stepped forth from the golden coffin, there was also a burst of great profound energies from the heavens above.

    This stunned Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng at the same time.

    Even when they were deep inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, they could feel the heavenly wrath that was about to descend.

    This heavenly wrath had only appeared because someone in the vicinity was about to ascend as an immortal and that someone was actually Ji Yuan.

    The False Immortal realm is only restricted to the 8th realm cultivation; there is no 9th realm False Immortal level.

    The heavenly wrath had now appeared to either to y Ji Yuan or to ascend him as a true immortal!

    Ji Yuan also seemed to know what was going to happen next and he was sighing softly, "Come. Let''s go outside or the heavenly wrath will surely destroy this ce."

    There is no hiding from the heavenly wrath and even entire mountains can be moved by the heavenly wrath!

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both astonished by Ji Yuan''s transformation when they saw that his inner spiritual sea had been greatly expanded to several times the original size after Ji Yuan had absorbed the golden bone marrow that was with his Golden Avatar.

    Xiang Li was excited as she chuckled with great delight: Big Brother is going to fight the Heavenly Wrath now and ascend as an immortal!

    Anyang weakly said: Why are you so excited about? Have you considered the possibility that our lord may fail in his ascension and may even die?

    Xiang Li gasped with shock: I haven''t considered this at all. Big Brother will die?

    Anyang said solemnly: The heavenly wraths for the seventh, eighth and ninth realm cultivation are all different. The best chance to ascend as an immortal lies with the seventh realm cultivation. To be an 8th realm False Immortal is already defying the heavens and this will only bring a more powerful heavenly wrathter. But our lord is now attempting to ascend as an immortal at the 9th realm cultivation. So, what do you think?"

    1. I can''t resist adding in this chapter that JY is so bad at being a peeping tom that he has never seeded before.

 Chapter 1065 This Immortal Heavenly Wrath is Unusual

    <h4>Chapter 1065 This Immortal Heavenly Wrath is Unusual</h4>

    High above the Nightfall Heights Mountains, a red serpent had emerged from the red stormy heavens and the entire mountains were trembling with constant waves of earthquakes.

    The winds were also unusual strong too, with many trees being uprooted by the furious winds.

    It seemed to all everyone on the Nightfall Heights Mountains that the profound aura of this red serpent was directly above them, a clear sight that someone among them was about to ascend to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm.

    This is a sight that rarely happened even in the long lives of the Ancient Race; it is because there are too many conditions to fulfill in order to ascend and it simply takes a long time of cultivation.

    But today, this was an unmistakable sight!

    "Someone among us is about to ascend?"

    "Is it the Cardinal Tribune?!"

    "The Cardinal Tribune has finally seeded and he has brought upon the Immortal Heavenly Wrath?"

    Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao was astonished as she immediately stepped out of her Cardinal Cathedral to have a look.

    It was not only her but almost everyone as well.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was soon joined by the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope, Millenium Jun Feitian and among many others.

    However, conspicuously missing were the Cardinal Confidant and the Cardinal Harpy; no one had seen them for the past 3 days.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also looking quite anxious as she had tried to contact Ji Yuan with the Heart Link Ne but there was simply no transmission from him; it was as though Ji Yuan had suddenly disappeared.

    So she tried to confront the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen to see where she was hiding Ji Yuan but she had also gone missing.

    She could not help thinking that the Cardinal Harpy and even the Cardinal Confidant were the moles for the Abyssal King Gong Magog instead.

    There were incessant mutterings among all the shocked onlookers and generally, everyone agreed that it must be Cardinal Tribune who was supposed to be facing this heavenly tribtion.

    All of a sudden Xuan Qiaoqiao was gasping; it was because she had spotted Juan Xian''Er who was walking hastily in her direction.

    The two of them were quickly in each other''s embrace as they greeted each other jovially.

    Juan Xian''Er curiously asked, "I have just arrived back here and I am so fortunate to witness an immortal ascension?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao weakly whispered, "It is more like witnessing a funeral and collecting the heavenly relics¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    The reason why Xuan Qiaoqiao had said that was because the chances of an immortal ascension is never more than 20% and most hopeful cultivators have only between 3% to 10% rate.

    Only roughly 1 in 10 of the ascending cultivators would seed to be a true immortal.

    When an immortal ascension fails, the golden bodies of the ascending cultivators would then be turned into the heavenly relics in which the stuff of divine weapons are forged of.

    Juan Xian''Er asked Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Where is Ji Yuan? He should witness this if he wants to ascend as an immortal in the future."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao bitterly answered, "He is missing now."

    Juan Xian''Er: ???

    "What do you mean that he is missing?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned, "I really don''t know. Maybe he has returned to the Celestial Realm or he has eloped with Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng."

    Juan Xian''Er waspletely baffled, "What does this have to do with the Cardinal Confidant?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was actually quite annoyed that Ji Yuan had gone missing without informing her as she answered quite sarcastically, "She wants to pursue the Great Patriarch Sword Saint."

    "Who is this Great Patriarch Sword Saint? Don''t tell me that he is Ji Yuan?"

    Juan Xian''Er could sense the sourness that was from Xuan Qiaoqiao as she giggled softly, "My Cardinal Priestess. Why don''t you tell me what had happened while I was away? I am not the furry worm in your stomach and I can''t guess what is in your mind."

    As she said that, the profound voice of the Cardinal Patriarch was reverberating loudly.

    He was shouting loudly amidst the strong winds, "Anyone that is below the 5th cultivation realm quickly retreat into the underground caverns. The Immortal Heavenly Wrath is about to descend soon! I don''t want anyone to lose your lives due to your stupid curiosity!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch was not joking about the dangers.

    The strong winds would get even stronger soon and all the weaker cultivators would be swept away by the powerful winds.

    Not only that, the Immortal Heavenly Wrath would also pack so much profound power that even a 7th realm cultivator would be killed by it.

    The Cardinal Patriarch solemnly shouted, "As for the rest, stay at your own risk!"

    Juan Xian''Er was suddenly looking at the gigantic red serpent that was forming from the whirling stormy red storms. "Qiaoqiao, do you think that this Immortal Heavenly Wrath looks a little unusual?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao frowned, "This is my first time witnessing it. What is so unusual about it?"

    Juan Xian''Er quickly lifted her fingers as she began to divine rapidly with her fingers.

    All of a sudden, she had turned ashen as she turned to look at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "This¡­ this is not a 7th realm Immortal Heavenly Wrath but a 9th realm Immortal Heavenly Wrath! It is powerful enough to demolish the entire Nightfall Heights!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes as she stammered, "Are you serious? Is it sent by the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo to destroy us?"

    Juan Xian''Er shook her head lightly but she was also in bewilderment too, "No, this is a true ascension. Someone triggers it."

    Then she had raised her profound voice to echo her voice to the surrounding vicinity, "All the cultivators that are below the 6th realm cultivation, quickly hide in the underground caverns. Do not stay in the buildings at all!"

    Many of the cultivators were stunned when they had heard Juan Xian''Er.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had also lent her authority to say, "What are you all waiting for? Are you all so eager to die? Are you trying to disobey your Cardinal Priestess?"

    Juan Xian''Er could only bitterly smile when she had heard Xuan Qiaoqiao; as usual, Xuan Qiaoqiao waspletely tactless.

    The thousands of cultivators were all panicky retreating now, leaving only less than 200 of the 7th realm cultivators behind.

    Juan Xian''Er also ordered, "Activate the profound defenses of the Nightfall Heights to the fullest. Spare no expenses!"

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, Millenium Jun Feitian and the Cardinal Herald were greatly perplexed as they walked hastily to Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    "What is going on here? Why are we kicking a fuss like this? It isn''t like the Nightfall Heights didn''t experience an Immortal Heavenly Wrath in the past."

    Juan Xian''Er exined weakly, "This is apletely different Immortal Heavenly Wrath. In fact, I don''t know if we may even survive it."

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, Millenium Jun Feitian, the Cardinal Herald and many others were quite startled when they had heard Juan Xian''Er.

    Juan Xian''Er bitterly added, "In fact, I may even want to suggest that we all hide like the rest too."

    Everyone: ¡­

    -

    -

    -

    The Cardinal Tribune was actually cultivating inside a secret cave in the mountains when the Immortal Heavenly Wrath had appeared and this shocked him.

    "Someone else is going to ascend as an immortal?!"

    He was the only one that probably knows that it was not him that was going to ascend.

    His original n was simple enough; first he would provoke his immortal ascension to be a true immortal and then he would use the 3 hours of grace before his eventual ascension to fly to the Royal City of Nefarious to fight with the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    This was a suicide n and he knows that he had no chance of making it back alive or even ascend as a true immortal should he goes to attack the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    His intention was never to ascend as a true immortal but to lift the spirits of the Ancient Race and to show the other abyssal races that the Ancient Old Ones was still a strong and powerful race. In this way, he hoped that he would buy his Ancient Race a better position on the negotiating table with the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    He did not have much of a choice now; in the past 2 years alone, 3 of the most powerful patriarchs of the Ancient Race had all perished or disappeared mysteriously.

    As the Cardinal Tribune was a peaked seventh realm cultivator and he did not choose to be a False Immortal, he had enough cultivation to attempt for an immortal ascension.

    But despites the vast cultivation resources that were under his disposals, he was still no closer to a forceful breakthrough even after a period of several months.

    But today, someone else was having an immortal ascension instead of him?!

    -----------------------

    Author Note

    1. JY is going to face this Immortal Heavenly Wrath in the next chapter.

    2. Juan Xian''Er is back in this chapter so JY gets an opportunity to show off in front of her and to obtain her praises?

 Chapter 1066 JY vs. the Immortal Heavenly Wrath (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1066 JY vs. the Immortal Heavenly Wrath (1)</h4>

    Just as Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and everyone else were all scurrying around, the intensity of the winds had suddenly grown in ferocity and were sweeping even 4th realm cultivators off the grounds!

    Even the intensity of the rumbling earthquakes had also grown; the entire mountains were shaking violently and there would be more upheavals if it was not for the profound arrays that were protecting the ce.

    However, the nearby vicinity of the Nightfall Heights was not so fortunate as entire forests were sunk into the ground and line of cracks began to surface on the ground. Even a small hill had also vanished into the ground just like this!

    Juan Xian''Er was right; this Immortal Heavenly Wrath was just too unusual in its ferocity!

    Just as everyone was scurrying around, a masked man had suddenly appeared in the heavens above as he flew himself from the ground to confront the gigantic coiling red serpent that had been formed from the dark stormy heavens.

    Many of the cultivators below were shouting excitingly;

    "He is the Great Patriarch Sword Saint! Don''t tell me that he is the one that is going to ascend instead?"

    "So, it is not our Cardinal Tribune?"

    "I remember that he did say he is going to ascend soon, right?"

    "This powerful profound aura¡­ is the 9th realm cultivation?"

    "What is the name of the 9th realm cultivation?"

    "I''ve heard that it is called the Minor Great Heavens and the Major Great Heavens¡­"

    "The lower immortal realms are the Minor Heavens, Major Heavens, Lesser Significant Heavens, the Greater Significant Heavens¡­"

    Although Xuan Qiaoqiao had warned her people to hide from this Immortal Heavenly Wrath, there were still more than a thousand cultivators that were below the 7th realm cultivation that were not afraid of death and they wanted to witness this ascension event; they were really unafraid of death and wanted to live through this ascension event to enhance their cultivation knowledge.

    Juan Xian''Er shockingly stared at the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao as she whispered with great disbelief, "He is Ji Yuan?! When did he be a 9th realm cultivator?!"

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao could not believe what she was seeing too and she whispered back, "Maybe he uses a profound treasure to raise his cultivation realm temporary?"

    Powerful profound pills do exist that can raise a cultivator''s cultivation realm temporary but these powerful profound pills are all called blood profound pills because there is a heavy price to be paid in return. Most would cripple the cultivation or even demand the life of the cultivator afterward.

    At this moment, the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen and Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng had also hastily arrived at the scene.

    Everyone was startled to see them as they were uncontactable even by their own pces in the past 3 days.

    Herald Ma Laide smiled politely when he saw them hastily approaching, "Greetings to the two Cardinals. Where have you been?"

    This was the question that Millenium Jun Feitian, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, Xuan Qiaoqiao and many others were also curious to ask.

    Li Yifen merely smiled, "I was in a hasty cultivation for the past 3 days. I have a sudden inspiration and had to go into cultivation immediately. So I didn''t have the time to tell anyone."

    "Same here," Jun Qianfeng had also said.

    Although this was quite ame excuse as they had both disappeared at the same time and had also given the same excuse but it was still an eptable excuse.

    Although Xuan Qiaoqiao wanted to say a word of sarcasm to Li Yifen, she resisted the temptation to quarrel with her as she was being distracted by the levitating ''masked man'' in the heavens above them.

    At this moment, everyone had no mood for other things other than watching the masked man up there as they exercised all their profound might against the powerful winds and violent earthquakes to stand firmly on the ground.

    But still Xuan Qiaoqiao could not resist a cold remark, "This ''Great Patriarch Sword Saint'' is quite foolish. He should use the ground as his support against the Immortal Heavenly Wrath. He will be in a bad position if he tries to confront the Immortal Heavenly Wrath in the heavens. He will probably be the first to do so and also the first to die in this manner too."

    When the others had heard her, most of them could only disy a bitter smile; at this moment when they were all rooting for the Great Patriarch Sword Saint to ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath, their Cardinal Priestess was actually cursing him.

    Actually, Xuan Qiaoqiao was quite anxious for Ji Yuan and the reason why she had said that was because she hopes that he would survive the Immortal Heavenly Wrath by choosing a more favorable ground instead.

    This was not lost on Juan Xian''Er who understands her perfectly and she sighed to her, "He doesn''t want the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to hurt us, that''s why."

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao had heard her, she began to sigh heavily¡­

    The masked man was indeed Ji Yuan and he had hastily levitated himself to the heavens to confront the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    He did not even try to maintain his fa?ade of being the Great Patriarch Sword Saint in front of Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen as he hastily put on his mask and cloak, telling them. "Let no one knows that it is me¡­"

    Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng hastily replied to Ji Yuan like they were facing an idol, "We won''t tell anyone about this¡­"

    But Ji Yuan appeared not to hear them as he had already sped up to the heavens and their soft voices were drowned by the strong furious winds.

    When Ji Yuan was up in the heavens, the gigantic red coiling red serpent that whirled above the dark red heavens had also spurted great gigantic red wings and the intensity of the winds and earthquakes had also increased even more strongly than ever before!

    shes of red-purplish lightning were also shing furiously to attack Ji Yuan but he had taken out his two emperor-step divine swords as he withstood hit after hit of the powerful lightning cmity that could pulverize a weaker 7th realm cultivator in an instant.

    Ji Yuan was astonished that he was able to withstand the powerful lightning strokes and it was actually much easier than being struck by the 81 purple lightning.

    This is the profound strength of the 9th realm cultivation?!

    He could not resist thinking how foolish he had been when he had challenged Yun Chi and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao; they are so much stronger than him and could have taken away his life in an instant.

    The gigantic red coiling red serpent roared furiously when it saw that its powerful lightning was insufficient to hurt Ji Yuan who had already been tempered by the 81 purple lightning tribtion.

    Also, when Ji Yuan had merged with the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God, he had also absorbed his golden bone marrow.

    By absorbing this great beyond divinity golden bone marrow, Ji Yuan''s golden body had also seen an increase in profound strength and that was why he could easily fend off the powerful lightning strokes that were being hurled at him.

    The gigantic red coiling red serpent opened its mouth and a red ray of destructive profound energies had suddenly exploded from the stormy dark red heavens above.

    This red destructive profound energy was easily 10 times more powerful than the Deity Destroying Cannon that was leashed upon Ji Yuan just 3 days ago!

    It was a truly 9th realm immortal destroying profound energy!

    Ji Yuan raised both his divine swords to defend against this destructive profound energies by disying everything that he could use; his deste cherubim, his ultra sword spirit, his sword aura and all his profound strength.

    Even calling help from Anyang, Aura and Xiang Li!

    He could not resist gasping, "So, this is the real test that I am going to face¡­"

    As he said that, the powerful wave of red destructive profound energies had overwhelmed Ji Yuan and had sent him to crash into the walls of a mountain like a speeding bullet!

    And around Ji Yuan, half of the mountains were also blown apart!

    The sight of Immortal Heavenly Wrath shocked everyone for they had never seen any profound energies that could blow a mountain apart¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and everyone else were now trembling with cold shiver; if these waves of red destructive profound energies hadnded where they were, they would all be dead even if they were half-immortals.

    But there was a rumbling from the ckened and destroyed mountain where Ji Yuan hadnded and it was Ji Yuan; he was not dead yet but very bloodied.

    His sword aura and deste cherubim spirit animus had beenpletely dissipated by the Immortal Heavenly Wrath but he had actually survived the cleansing to be a true immortal.

    Even his two emperor divine swords were red hot and had cracks all over; his divine swords could no longer be used.

    But luckily for Ji Yuan, the gigantic red serpent in the dark stormy heavens appeared to have acknowledge Ji Yuan''s strength and did not attack further; he had passed the tribtion to be a true immortal now.

    Although this battle was brief and was actually quickly over, the brutality of this heavenly tribtion was not easy to ovee.

    Ji Yuan had proved that he could withstand the lighting tribtion and so he had skipped the first part and that was why his immortal ascension had quickly ended.

    This time round, the gigantic red serpent had a glow of golden animus and it was going to fuse its golden animus with Ji Yuan with another profound attack as it roared thunderously.

    "Wait a minute!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly hovered up to the heavens again with a great shout, "This is not over yet!"

    His great shouts startled all the onlookers as it was clear to them that he had ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to be a true immortal?

    Ji Yuan was trembling all over his body but he was also calmly saying to the Heavenly Immortal Wrath, "I don''t want to be an immortal or to ascend. It is because I have many others that are still waiting for me to return. Also, I have someone that is dear to my heart who is waiting for me to return¡­ therefore you have to fight me again in order to force me to ascend to the heavens!"

    When he had said that, he had kept his two emperor swords with shaking fingers into his immortal scabbard and called out, "Little Yui! I need you now!"

    A dark sword adorned with golden runes had suddenly manifested in front of Ji Yuan!

    The Immortal Heavenly Wrath appeared to be furious and the gigantic red coiling dragon had suddenly doubled in size!

    The fierce winds and lighting bolts had suddenly doubled in ferocity as it ripped the numerous profound arrays apart!

    Many unfortunate onlookers were also swept away or were killed!

    The Immortal Heavenly Wrath was not over yet!

    --------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. JY doesn''t want to ascend as an immortal. He wants to be a cultivator with an immortal cultivation in the middle divine realm.

 Chapter 1067 JY vs. the Immortal Heavenly Wrath (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1067 JY vs. the Immortal Heavenly Wrath (2)</h4>

    Ji Yuan had moved up unsteadily once again to the heavens and Little Yui the ck sword had suddenly manifested in front of him.

    Two wondrous divine echoes could be seen from the ck sword as the onlookers gasped with shock; they were simply astonished that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint had yet another powerful divine sword and this sword was a true divinity sword!

    Many of the onlookers were bewildered why the Great Patriarch Sword Saint was challenging the Immortal Heavenly Wrath again and it had even caused the furies of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to even doubled in power!

    Powerful forks of red-purple lightning bolts began to rain down from the heavens, creating a terrifying sight as it broke through the defensive arrays and destroying the many beautiful pces of the Nightfall Heights.

    This time round, more than half of the cultivators had also fled to safety as it was bing too dangerous.

    However, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, the Cardinals and most of the senior elders had chosen to stay as they mustered all their profound strength into the Thousand Weighted Fall in order to steady themselves from the powerful winds and earthquakes.

    Ji Yuan was even struck by several of the enhanced powerful lightning bolts and he was jolted backward again and again.

    This time round, he did not escape unscathed and the powerful lightning bolts were even dissipating his inner spiritual sea.

    Luckily, he had Little Yui and Aura to help him deflect most of the profound damage to his soul sea.

    Ji Yuan continued to shout to the gigantic coiling red serpent above him as it grew to a gargantuan size. "Heehee. I didn''t ask you toe but you did. Do you really think that you can take me away just like this without a fight?"

    As he shouted, he had mustered his remaining profound strength as thousands of profound swords began to manifest all around him.

    This startled the onlookers because they had thought that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint had exhausted his sword domains a few days ago and that was why he did not disy his sword domains to shield himself from the destructive furies of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    When Ji Yuan had merged with his Golden Avatar, not only were all his woundspletely healed but he had also regained his powerful sword intentions.

    The reason why he had chosen not to use his sword domains was because he wanted to know if he had the sufficient strength to do another battle and he had also wanted to know how powerful the Immortal Heavenly Wrath was.

    He had only one word to say: This Immortal Heavenly Wrath is immensely powerful.

    But Ji Yuan is the True Devil God incarnate and his golden body is meant the withstand the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to be an immortal so it is still not enough to stop him.

    But today Ji Yuan is going to challenge the Immortal Heavenly Wrath and to create his own concepts andws.

    Just like many, many years ago, he had created the 8th realm False Immortal level for the Ancient Race, he is going to create the 9th realm False Immortal level for himself!

    The serpentine mouth of the gigantic red serpent opened widely and a burst of powerful red destructive profound energies exploded outward into a long beam of red light toward Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan said quietly to Little Yui as he firmly gasped the dark sword, "I am so sorry that I have to use you in this manner."

    Little Yui replied to him, "It is my honor to fight alongside with master. After all, we have fought stronger immortal creatures in the past before."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "This new master of yours is weaker than your old master¡­"

    When he had said that, he had already disyed his Thousand Sacred Swords into the Million Swords Field as heunched them into straight line as the Harker of the Million Swords against the iing long beam of deadly red profound energies.

    If this was just a single sword domain then it was not powerful enough.

    So, Ji Yuan had also transformed his Harker of the Million Swords with his life-force energies by disying his life and death sword domain to transform all his profound sword energies into profound life force energies!

    Previously he had used another method to increase the profound power of his Harker of the Million Swords by adding his 9 flying divine swords into it and using the life and death sword domain to turn these 9 flying divine swords into deadly swords.

    But today, he was now strong enough topletely turned his numerous profound swords into life force swords without expending all his life force vitality.

    As he raised his long ck sword against the background of his ck cloak, thousands of his profound swords lined into a straight line against the powerful red destructive beam of light from the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    Ji Yuan was startled when the powerful red destructive beam of light continued on his onughter against him as it dissipated all his profound swords into nothingness.

    Little Yui suddenly said to him, "Master, you need Little Yui to help you. Only you can use my sanctorum power."

    Ji Yuan was startled; that is right. All divine swords have their unique sanctorum power but only if the wielder is able to perfectly divine harmonize with it.

    Without hesitation, Ji Yuan mustered hisst reserve of profound strength into his ck divine sword.

    It was as though he had used Little Yui many times in the past before.

    Ji Yuan''s Harker of the Million Swords was suddenly enveloped by the profound animus of a gigantic ck sword as Little Yui condensed all the profound energies of the thousands of swords into one.

    A beautiful outline of a ck sword that enveloped thousands of white beaming profound swords began to surge forward against the destructive red pir of profound energies of the gigantic coiling red winged serpent.

    In that instant, Ji Yuan had sent his Harker of the Million Swords straight up to the raging storm of the heavens as he exploded the gigantic red winged serpent into oblivion!

    Ji Yuan had won!

    Almost immediately, the rumblings of the earthquakes, the strong winds and the explosive lightning bolts had all ceased at the same time!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and many others were astonished that the masked man had won against the Immortal Heavenly Wrath!

    At this moment, the dark silhouette of Ji Yuan in his ck cloak with his long ck sword was the only objective in the heavens as the dark stormy heavens began to clear in an instant to bath him in an auspicious heavenly rainbow light.

    Today Ji Yuan has ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to create his own unique cultivationws and he is allowed to stay in the lower realm!

    Even though there were numerous dead and destruction on the ground below, many of the cultivators were all pping and shouting thunderously!

    "Did you see that?"

    "I am so d that I didn''t miss this¡­"

    "This is worth it despites my injuries¡­"

    "The Great Patriarch Sword Saint¡­ has actually withstand the Immortal Heavenly Wrath twice in a row and the second time was even fiercer than the first¡­"

    "What is the meaning of the second confrontation with the Immortal Heavenly Wrath?"

    "He has a¡­ true divinity sword?!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch was gasping in wonder at this sight and he was now whispering to the others, "Do you know what the Great Patriarch Sword Saint reminded me of now? There is a myth in which the True Devil God in ck appeared with his long ck true divinity sword¡­"

    When he had said that, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng could not help but stared coldly at him; it was because the Cardinal Patriarch had also said that Ji Yuan was the Great Patriarch Sword Saint and this had caused many to believe him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao could not resist adding coldly, "The True Devil God is long dead."

    Juan Xian''Er on the other hand appeared to be in a daze as she silently thought: Is this masked man really the same Ji Yuan that I know?

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to descend and to hide away, he was startled to see a burst of powerful burst of profound animus that had appeared in the heavens and apparently this was trained at him.

    The delicate and exquisite look of a maiden in white could be seen appearing in the distant horizon; she was none other than Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily!

    To the onlookers who were startled by her suddenly appearance, her beautiful face was as smooth and white as porcin. There was also a peerless elegance in her beautiful looks.

    But to Ji Yuan, she is his worst nightmare!

    And Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling wryly to him, "Ji Yuan, you are a 9th realm cultivator now?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Why are you here and not protecting my brothers?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly as she seemingly looked at his ck sword, "You have a true divinity sword now. I wonder if your true divinity sword is stronger or the true divinity sword in my scabbard is stronger?"

    1. Do you think that JY is more afraid of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao than the Immortal Heavenly Wrath?

 Chapter 1068 Ji Yuan vs. Ding Xiaoxiao

    <h4>Chapter 1068 Ji Yuan vs. Ding Xiaoxiao</h4>

    Ji Yuan stared awkwardly at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao after hearing her remarks, "Don''t tell me that you are here to fight me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly and waspletely nonchnt that she was also being seen by hundreds of cultivators below and hundreds more of the emerging cultivators as they emerged from their shelters.

    "I saw the Immortal Heavenly Wrath appearing and I have toe to take a look."

    This Immortal Heavenly Wrath actually turned the entire red heavens from day to night and into a maelstrom that covered hundreds of miles.

    So it was not unusual for Ding Xiaoxiao to see it and because she could fly at a tremendous speed, it did not take her long to arrive at the scene.

    In fact, she had actually arrived in secret and was just watching Ji Yuan battled the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    Ji Yuan gave her an awkward look, "Is it purely just to have a look or some other reasons?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao appeared to be startled by this question before she slowly disyed a gentle look at Ji Yuan, "You seem to be afraid of me?"

    Ji Yuan was supposed to be the alpha of the alphas; how could he admit that he is afraid of a maiden?

    So he forced himself tough aloud, "Hohoho! Of course not! I will be afraid? Fear never exists in my dictionary!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "Then why the look?"

    Ji Yuan weakly exined, "I am in no condition to fight you now, that''s why. And didn''t we have an agreement to fight once the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is over?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "So you are still thinking about our duel. Well, I didn''te to fight with you today. I am just here to offer my congrats to you for being stronger now."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was so relieved that he could not help resisting a loudughter as he patted Ding Xiaoxiao on her shoulder.

    "Hahaha, is that so?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly patted her; one must know that no one has ever live after touching her. After all, she has a bad reputation among the Numbers for being a nasty immortal cultivator and she did not care about maintaining a good reputation to anyone.

    She wanted to say something but when she saw that Ji Yuan wasughing so jovially, she began to smile too.

    Ji Yuan then asked her, "So, you are leaving soon?"

    It was quite shameless for him to ask her this question.

    He was actually thinking: Since she isn''t here to fight with him then she should be leaving soon, right?

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "That will depend if you want me to stay or leave."

    Ji Yuan was stunned by this question as he quickly hosted an emergency meeting in his soul sea to Xiang Li, Anyang and Little Yui.

    He asked panicky: If I ask her to stay then she will think that I may want to fight her. But if I want her to leave then she may feel insulted and may want to fight me. What should I reply to her?

    Little Yui: ???

    There was actually no reply except for Little Yui who was looking perplexed with this question; it was because Xiang Li and Anyang were both in a deep slumber. Even Aura was also in a deep slumber due to the battle with the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    This left Ji Yuan to answer this tricky question alone.

    So he answered her hesitatingly, unsure if his answer was the correct one or not. "Erm, I don''t mind you staying here¡­"

    "Then I shall stay here for a while," Ding Xiaoxiao smiled. "You may have a little trouble on your way¡­"

    She was naturally referring to the disturbances that the Immortal Heavenly Wrath had caused to the Royal City of the Nefarious and the Nefarious Blood Kingdom; naturally she could even feel the presence of a powerful immortal the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo in the Royal City of Nefarious.

    But for Ji Yuan there was an awkward look on his face; it was because he had actually wanted to say, "I don''t mind you staying here but the Ancient Race may not wee you at all."

    But because he was thinking and hesitating at the same time, he got interrupted by Ding Xiaoxiao.

    He actually did not want her to stay next to him at all and was afraid that she may change her mind about fighting him.

    Below, no other cultivators except for Xuan Qiaoqiao knows who the newly arrival was.

    Even though the furious tempests of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath had subsided but the natural strong winds of the mountains had prevented any of the cultivators that were looking at them from the Nightfall Heights from hearing them.

    They only know that this newly arrived was a powerful cultivator from the Deste Race and they were greatly startled; it was because there were supposedly no powerful cultivators of the Deste Race in the Dark Abyssal Realm for a long time.

    There may be some reclusive powerful deste cultivators in some faraway deste corners of the world but there would be no high level deste cultivators that would dare to appear deep in the interior territories of the abyssal races; this is in suicide.

    Juan Qiaoqiao could not resist a soft gasp, "It is her?"

    Although it was almost inaudible but because Juan Xian''Er was near to her and she was a 8th realm False Immortal, she could hear her quite well so she whispered back, "You know this deste cultivator?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao did not even bother to hide her blue animus or her red crimson eyes, hence she was easily identified as a deste cultivator.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao slowly nodded, "We have met before¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er was startled, "I think her cultivation is stronger than the 8th realm cultivation. I have an uneasy feeling about her. She seems very strong."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao whispered back, "She is. Even Ji Yuan is afraid of her."

    Juan Xian''Er was startled, "They¡­ are not friends?"

    They could see that Ji Yuan and this deste cultivator seemed to be having a conversation and Ji Yuan was even patting her.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao muttered weakly, "Maybe they are friends with benefits."

    Juan Xian''Er looked perplexed, "A celestial and a deste cultivator?"

    At this moment and unknown to everyone else, Herald Ma Laide had hastily hurried off and he had broken into cold sweats.

    He was actually thinking: I must quickly let the Abyssal King Gong Magog knows about this. This is too shocking¡­

    1. Yeah. Herald Ma Laide is actually the mole but only the readers know about this.

 Chapter 1069 Ding Xiaoxiao remembers the Favor

    <h4>Chapter 1069 Ding Xiaoxiao remembers the Favor</h4>

    Ji Yuan decided to make thest-ditch attempt to persuade Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao not to stay by his side.

    So he said to her, "Did you see my mask? Most of them do not know who I am and that is why I am wearing a mask. Even if you want to stay, I am afraid that the Ancient Race in this ce will not allow you to stay. Also, these lofty Ancient Ones look down on humans and destes like us. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan was not exactly lying when he had said that; it was true that he did not have the right to allow her to stay in this ce.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked him nonchntly, "Does that maiden that is with you knows you are the masked man?"

    Ji Yuan was quite perplexed when she had suddenly asked him this question, "She is actually one of the very few people to know who I am."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling suddenly, "That is good to know then¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had shed from the heavens above and she had suddenly tiptoed in front of Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and the other senior figures of the Ancient Race!

    Her speed was extremely astonishing and she was even able to halt herself suddenly by tiptoeing on the ground before walking calmly toward the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao!

    This startled all the Ancient Race and even Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan quickly followed after her too because he was worried that Ding Xiaoxiao may suddenly decide to massacre everyone.

    After all, if there was no one left on the Nightfall Heights to give permission for Ding Xiaoxiao to stay then she did not even need any permission.

    Ding Xiaoxiao walked calmly to Xuan Qiaoqiao, seemingly oblivious to the numerous cultivators around her as she said to her. "My friend. We have met again. Do you think that I may be able to stay in this ce for a while?"

    When she had said that, most of the Ancient Old Ones were startled by her as they did not know when their Cardinal Priestess had known such a powerful deste immortal.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao was surprised by this question as she was not expecting a visit by Ding Xiaoxiao all of a sudden.

    She said with a startled look, "Sure, why not."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly to her, "Thank you, my friend."

    The reason why she had asked Xuan Qiaoqiao was because she knows that she was a 8th realm cultivator and therefore must also be a important cultivator of the Ancient Race.

    She did not know that Xuan Qiaoqiao is the Cardinal Priestess at this moment.

    Ding Xiaoxiao then turned to a stunned Ji Yuan who had hurriedlynded behind her, "Did you hear that? I am allowed to stay here now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was so stunned that he merely muttered, "Hahaha¡­ That''s good. That''s good¡­"

    Then he quickly said, "I''ve got to go now¡­"

    The Cardinal Patriarch had suddenly halted him, "Senior, you are the benefactor of our Ancient Race. We have not really given you our profuse thanks thest time. Why don''t we host a banquet for you before you leave? Or maybe you can stay to help us until the crisis to our Ancient Race is over?"

    Cardinal Confident Jun Qianfeng who knows that the masked man was actually Ji Yuan began to smile, "That''s right. Why don''t senior stays to help us fight the Abyssal King Magog?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why did he have tond in this position to be surrounded by all these Cardinals?

    Millenium Jun Feitian was also saying, "That''s right. Why don''t senior stays with us for a while too? We can offer you our best profound pills and best attention that will cater to your needs¡­"

    Li Yifen could not resist saying, "We have the best Harpies to sing for you and they are all beautiful maidens."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Cardinal Pope said solemnly, "We have the best aged wines that we have been keeping in our wine cers to serve to senior too¡­."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly behind his mask: Did he just say the best wines?!

    He was naturally very tempted¡­

    But he was also worried that he may get drunk and may identally exposed himself¡­

    Maybe he would even get killed by Ding Xiaoxiao while he was drunk and did not even know how he had died¡­

    Thinking of this, he immediately said solemnly. "I will surelye to the aid of the Ancient Race when the timees. But for now, I''d like to cultivate in peace."

    When he had said that, he had leapt into the heavens and was flying off.

    As he flew off, he was thinking weakly: Darn. Now I have to climb up this stupid mountain again¡­

    Many of the Ancient Old Ones sighed heavily when they saw that their Great Patriarch Sword Saint could not stay.

    The Cardinal Patriarch turned to Ding Xiaoxiao as he asked politely, "Maiden, may we know your celestial title and your name?"

    Any friend of their Great Patriarch Sword Saint is naturally their friend too. Also, didn''t they see it quite clearly that their Great Patriarch Sword Saint had even patted her shoulders just now?

    Moreover, she is also a friend of their Cardinal Priestess.

    Therefore, most of the leadership of the Ancient Old Ones were quite respectful toward her even though she is a deste cultivator.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled pleasantly, "You may address me as Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng had suddenly asked as she smiled, "I wonder if Maiden Xiaoxiao and our Great Patriarch Sword Saint are an item together?"

    This question startled Ding Xiaoxiao, even Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were looking startled as well.

    Ding Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while as she looked longingly in the direction where Ji Yuan had disappeared, "An item together? Interesting question¡­"

    Her voice was soft but it was still audible to these cultivation experts.

    But she quickly smiled wryly to say, "I owe your Great Patriarch Sword Saint a favor. So I am thinking of repaying him while I am here¡­"

    As she said that, she was actually looking at Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had of course remembered the gambit between Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao not long ago in the forest where they had both made an agreement for the loser to do one thing for the victor.

    And Ji Yuan had said he wanted to bang Ding Xiaoxiao¡­

    When she had thought of this, she was suddenly flushing coyly¡­

 Chapter 1070 Chaos Sovereign Empress Destiny

    <h4>Chapter 1070 Chaos Sovereign Empress Destiny</h4>

    In the Immortal Dark Entropy Realm, 1 of the 6 major immortal great realms.

    The Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny was on board arge and magnificent profound pce ship that was bounded for the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm

    Apanying herrge profound pce ship were hundreds of smaller profound vessels; they were all bounded to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm to continue the immortal wars between the Chaos Race and the Abyssal Races that had been waging for a long, long time.

    It was difficult for the both races to actually gain any meaningful foothold in each other''s great immortal worlds as their immortal world was extremely vast and there were many unknown powerful denizens that were unaligned with either the known Chaos Races and the Great Abyssal Races.

    But the return of Destiny as Chaos Empress Sovereign had jolted the morale of the Chaos Race and had given them a great morale boasting lifting; not only did the Chao Races revive their fighting spirits but they had also got rid of the Abyssal Garrison in their immortal world which they had ceded in the past for a peace treaty.

    The return of Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny did not just bolster their fighting spirits but even the normally stagnant cultivation of the Chaos Race had also seen a tremendous improvement, with many of the immortal cultivators of the Chaos Races experiencing a sudden cultivation breakthrough as well.

    It is not exaggerating to say that her presence alone has increased the fighting strength of the Chaos Race and had helped them to ovee the powerful Great Abyssal Race in the initial period of the immortal war.

    Conquaring the Abyssal Garrison was actually not as easy as it looked.

    It was because there was a direct portal that had been erected at a great expense by the True Gods of the Great Abyssal Realm themselves.

    Inter dimensional portals were expensive to create and requires vast cultivation resources to begin with so even a top immortal sect may not be able to even afford to build one. But with the Chaos Race paying arge cultivation tribute once every 100 years to the Great Abyssal Race, this was made possible.

    When the Abyssal Garrison was under attack, the True Abyssal God Baal had thought nothing of this and had entered the Dark Entropy Realm to teach the Chaos Race a lesson.

    It was not wrong to say that he had been too careless and he did not realize that his opponent was the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny herself and he was deserving killed for being too careless with his arrogancy.

    The other True Abyssal God Cthulhu had arrived soon after the death of the True Abyssal God Baal and he was shocked that the Chaos Race actually had the ability to kill a True Abyssal God.

    Not only that, he had noticed that the Chaos Race seemed to be fighting frantically and they were too unusual united.

    He quickly noticed that something was really amiss this time for the Chaos Race to disregard their peace treaty in this manner and did not seem to be afraid of the reprisals of the Great Abyssal Realm.

    Also, he was startled by the numbers of Immortal Sovereigns of the Chaos Race that were leading the attacks; these Immortal Sovereigns were also unusual united and not as fragmented as before; Instead of waiting for the other Immortal Sovereigns to suffer the first taste of defeat before they would step in to help, this time round the Immortal Sovereigns were all attacking unreservedly as though they were all too eager to show off their martial prowess.

    The feriocity and scale of the attacks stunned the True Abyssal God Cthulhu; this was not a small-scale attack at all and it was possibly even the start of a full scale war!

    And he soon knows why.

    It was because the leader of this attack was the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny, the True Goddess of the Dark Entropy Realm and she had already broken into a True Divinity!

    The True Abyssal God Cthulhu is a half-step True Divinity and also an immensely powerful immortal abyssal; the bodily transformations of the Great Abyssals are no less powerful than the God Beast forms of the Chaos Races.

    But the difference in this half-step cultivation between Destiny and the True Abyssal God Cthulhu is simply too vast to be ovee.

    Before long, the True Abyssal God Cthulhu had lost the upper hand and he had even been injured. This caused him to flee through the portal back to his own immortal world.

    The battle for the Abyssal Garrison in the Dark Entropy Realm ended with a resounding victory for the Chao Races and with a True God of the Great Abyssal Realm dead in the battle field.

    The Chaos Races was jubnt over their resounding victory over the Great Abyssal Race and they did not have a simr victory in tens of thousands of years.

    When the True Abyssal God Cthulhu was back to the Great Abyssal Realm, he had quickly sent a transmission to the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, informing him of the death of the True Abyssal God Baal and his own defeat.

    Then he had quickly mustered all the Great Abyssal Gods to prepare them for war against the Chaos Races.

    The numerous Great Abyssal Gods were enraged at the loss of their Abyssal Garrison and immediately prepared themselves for war.

    In fact, they were so enraged that they began to recall many of their incursions to the other Great Immortal Realms to fully focus on taking vendetta on the Chaos Race.

    But before they could invade the Immortal Dark Entropy Realm, they had heard that the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny was moving faster than they had expected and she had already razed one of their satellite abyssal immortal realms, even destroying an entire floti that stood in her way.

    Instead of waiting for the Great Abyssals toe, the Chaos Race had actually invaded their immortal worlds.

    The Immortal Great Abyssals were now extremely pissed off.

    -

    -

    -

    Destiny was now alone in the throne room of her profound pce ship as it made its way to the outer rim of the immortal abyssal great worlds.

    She was smiling bitterly to herself; it was because she did not want even want to be the Chaos Sovereign Empress in the first ce and she was just trying to retrieve her cultivation profound treasures when she was discovered by the Immortal Sovereigns that were having a meeting on her sacred mountain.

    Before she had known it, she was forced by her own chaos sovereign n to lead the rest of the Chaos Races on a war path to liberate their immortal realm from the Great Abyssals.

    And before she had known it, the Totem Abyssal and True Abyssal God Baal had appeared.

    The True Abyssal God Baal had actually never seen her before as he was just a minor true abyssal god in the past.

    Even among the half-step True Divinities, they are still grouped into minor, lesser and greater half-step True Divinities.

    And Destiny was naturally a greater half-step True Divinity.

    When the True Abyssal God Baal saw her, he began to arrogantly said to her. "I have never seen a more beautiful chaos sovereign like you before. Why don''t you join my harem and be my little pleasure concubine?"

    Destiny naturally was outraged by his frivolous words and needless to say, she had kicked him between his legs in his moment of carelessness and wouldter kill him in an enraging battle.

    Andter the True Abyssal God Cthulhu would also appear and she had also sent him scurrying away.

    By killing a True Abyssal God, she had also started an immortal war at the same time.

    And that was why she was now sighing heavily; this immortal war would not end anytime soon and it may evenst for thousands of years.

    Destiny of course was not someone that would wait for the Great Abyssals toe so she quickly mustered the profound ships of the Dark Entropy Realm to pige through the lesser immortal worlds of the Great Abyssals first.

    She was actually using her main floti as a bait to drawn the attention of the Great Abyssal Gods as she advanced; she had another floti that was liberating her own immortal chaos worlds at the same time.

    Her first target was naturally on a formidable sized abyssal floti that was anchored nearby and she soon destroyed it to buy her Chaos Race some precious time before the Great Abyssals could mount a counter offensive.

    At this moment, she was quite mncholy and she was fingering the hidden ve cor that looked like a beautiful exquisite ne that was on her neck.

    She was thinking of Ji Yuan¡­

    All of a sudden, she was gasping softly when the ve cor was suddenly fading¡­

    She gasped with shock, "Ji Yuan, he remembers who I am?! He knows?!"

 Chapter 1071 You Cant Throw Me Down The Mountains... Cos...

    ?

    The Dark Abyssal Realm, Nightfall Heights.

    In an underground chamber that was warded by numerous powerful anti-scrying arrays, a cultivator from the Ancient Race was panicky sending an urgent transmission.

    He was none other than Herald Ma Laide.

    He was now in directmunication with the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog and he had been trying to make contact for the past several hours.

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was actually in an emergency meeting with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and his 3 royal prices to discuss about thetest failure at the Nightfall Heights.

    "My king," he humbly said. "I have some urgent news from the Nightfall Heights¡­"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog asked him, "Is it about the Immortal Heavenly Wrath?"

    "Yes, yes." Herald Ma Laide urgently replied. "This Immortal Heavenly Wrath is actually caused by our Great Patriarch Sword Saint. He has ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath not once but twice. It seems that he has rejected the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to take him up to the immortal realm. I think he meant to fight with you."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog frowned, "I have nothing to fear from a mere half-step immortal."

    Herald Ma Laide said heavily, "It seems that he is actually at the upper 9th realm cultivation."

    "What?!" The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog looked shocked, "Are you sure?"

    Herald Ma Laide said firmly, "I am very sure. He has to disy his full cultivation profound aura when battling the Immortal Heavenly Wrath."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog frowned unhappily, "It is impossible. All the 9th realm Abyssal Gods in the Great Abyssal Realm won''t dare to oppose the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo. Even the immortals of the Ancient Old Ones have mostly gone into hiding and they won''t have the resources to send a 9th realm immortal to the lower realm. Are you really sure about this? Do you have an idea how difficult for a 9th realm immortal to even descend for a short period of time?"

    Herald Ma Laide weakly replied, "I have heard about that. But maybe he does have the resources? He has a true divinity sword. I saw it."

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog was startled, "What?! He has a true divinity sword?! Did he use a true divinity sword to anchor himself to our realm? No, this shouldn''t be¡­ I need to inform the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo about this¡­"

    But he quickly hummed coldly, "Our Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo is a half-step True Divinity. In front of him, the cultivation realm of this person is nothing in his eyes."

    Herald Ma Laide agreed panicky, "Yes, yes. This is for sure¡­"

    "But he shouldn''t be an immortal from the Great Abyssal Realm," the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog began to frown coldly.

    Herald Ma Laide muttered, "No?"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog said solemnly, "In fact, he isn''t the real Great Patriarch Sword Saint at all."

    Herald Ma Laide was startled, "He isn''t?"

    "The real Great Patriarch Sword Saint was actually killed by me a long time ago." The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog coldlyughed. "This is actually a secret because I don''t want to agonize your Ancient Race in the past but now it is different¡­"

    Then he said with a cold smirk, "You can make use of this fact to sabotage this fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint. Once he has lost his credibility, we can easily paint him as my mole and no one will trust him anymore. If you can get this done before the Immortal Abyssal Diablo arrives then I shall give you the credit for this. Not only can you be the new Cardinal Herald, I can even appoint you as the Grand Cardinal to be in charge of all the other Cardinals too."

    Herald Ma Laide was delighted, "Haha, I will surely do my best to expose this fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint¡­"

    "By the way," the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog said. "Prince Gong Meshech will being with a vanguard force first. Make sure that he did note to any harm and make sure that your Ancient Race will not put on a fierce resistance."

    Herald Ma Laide smiled, "I will surely help to wreck the morale of the Ancient Race for you. Right now, even Millenium Jun Feitian is firmly on my side. Also, many of the elders of the Ancient Race do not want a war with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. Moreover, with Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo around, how can we possibly put on a fight?"

    The Great Abyssal King Gong Magog hummed coldly, "Did you also say that before the arrival of my super mobile fortress? And then your Ancient Race has defeated my army."

    Herald Ma Laide panicky exined, "It isn''t the Ancient Race. It is that fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    At this moment, this fake Great Patriarch Sword Ji Yuan was now cursing his way up to the Nightfall Heights again.

    It was several hourster that Ji Yuan had managed to climb up to the top of the Nightfall Height again.

    Although this time round it was much easier than ever before due to his new 9th realm profound strength but it was still not an easy task since he had to make sure that his profound animus did not leak and then he would be discovered as the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint.

    But as soon as he had exhaustingly reached to the top, he was quite startled to see that he had been spotted by Millenium Jun Feitian and his cultivators.

    Millenium Jun Feitian had actually been patrolling in person around the ruins in the aftermath of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath as many of the defensive arrays in the Nightfall Heights had been destroyed by the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    "So, who do we have here? Isn''t this the lowly human 4444? So he had got himself swept by the fierce winds of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath down the mountains earlier."

    Ji Yuan weakly corrected him, "I am now the Holy Harpy of the Cathedral of the Songs."

    Millenium Jun Feitian raised his fingers to disy a gesture to the eight cultivators that were with him, "Have him thrown down the mountain."

    The 8 cultivators that were behind him quickly stepped forward to enforce his orders as they walked hastily toward Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled¡­

    No way!

    He may not die from being thrown down the mountains but he has to climb up for the third time?! NO WAY!!!

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed a defensive posture as he warned the Millenium Jun Feitian and the other cultivators, "Wait! Do you know that you are throwing an elder of the Nightfall Heights down the mountains? Do you have an idea that you are acting against an elder of the Nightfall Heights?"

    When he had said that, Millenium Jun Feitian and all the cultivators were allughing out loud.

    Millenium Jun Feitian roared withughter, "Did you all hear that? No one will care about a lowly human ve and a low level cultivator here. Muhahaha¡­"

    JI Yuan: ¡­

    He panicky protested, "Millenium Jun Feitian, you shouldn''t have said this to me cos, I have screwed your mother consort. So technically, you are my son¡­"

    Millenium Jun Feitian was suddenly red with rage, "What did you just say?! You motherfucker! How dare you sullen the honor of my mother consort!"

    And he had rushed forward to attack Ji Yuan as he exploded with raging furies!

    Ji Yuan was startled as he panicky shouted, "Wait! Wait! Calm down please¡­ forget what I have just said¡­"

 Chapter 1072 JY And The 5 Maidens

    ?

    Just as Millenium Jun Feitian was about to rush forward to personally throw Ji Yuan down the mountains, a beautiful but cold voice startled him.

    "Millenium Jun Feitian, what do you think that you''re doing?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian was startled by this voice and he quickly stopped in his tracks.

    Ji Yuan had also recognized the familiar voice too.

    She was actually the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and she was being apanied by Confidant Ur Muyuan.

    Millenium Jun Feitian stammered, "Elder Sister¡­ you are here?"

    Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "Why shouldn''t I be here? I just heard that you are going to throw an elder from the Cardinal Harpy down to the mountains.

    Millenium Jun Feitian protested immediately, "This lowly human just insulted the honor our mother consort! Therefore, I have the right to punish him. If he survives being thrown down the mountains then I shall forgive him for this trespass. And also, you should be on my side as well. You have a strong dislike of him as well!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said to himself when he had heard him: Even though I can survive bring thrown down the mountain but no way I am climbing up this stupid mountain again¡­

    It had taken him several hours to climb this steep mountain with his bare hands, a feat not possible for a low level cultivator and this may even take a real 2nd realm cultivator several days. But Ji Yuan is quite an expert in mountain climbing and it is all thanks to his old master who had kicked him down the mountains whenever he failed in his trainings.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng ignored Millenium Jun Feitian and was quickly by Ji Yuan''s side to support him upright.

    She disyed the most gentle demeanor in front of Ji Yuan and said tenderly to him, "Holy Harpy 4444, are you alright? Let me help you to the Cardinal Cathedral. Our Cardinal Priestess is hosting a small banquet for Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao and you are also invited¡­"

    Millenium Jun Feitian interrupted shockingly, "What?! He is invited?! But he is merely a low level elder and not even a Cardinal! How is it possible for him to be invited while I am not invited?"

    Cardinal Confident Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly to him, "You want to tell me that you are supposed to be invited just because you are the next in line to be the Cardinal Tribune, am I right? But unfortunately, you are not yet the Cardinal Tribune and you have a noble duty now for a search and rescue mission¡­"

    "But most of the survivors are already found¡­" Millenium Jun Feitian began to protest immediately.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng interrupted him coldly, "And I just saw you wanting to throw Holy Harpy 4444 down the mountains. Not only you but your men are also trying to do the same too. So, is this the way you treat the survivors by throwing them down the mountains? Do you want me to tell the Cardinal Priestess and the other Cardinals about this? Or even to Juan Xian''Er?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian weakly said, "Not to Juan Xian''Er¡­"

    The reason why he had muttered the name of Juan Xian''Er was not because he was afraid of her but because he was trying to impress her. Do he did not want his good reputation to be ruined in front of Juan Xian''Er.

    Then Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng pulled Ji Yuan tenderly to her and said coldly to Millenium Jun Feitian and his men, "Out of my way!"

    Millenium Jun Feitian did not dare to offend his eldest sister so he quickly stepped out of her way; he is not afraid of his mother consort Li Yifen but he is really afraid of his sister Jun Qianfeng.

    Ji Yuan was looking quite startled too.

    It was because he did not expect to find Jun Qianfeng to be so tender and gentle to him. But of course, he knows that Jun Qianfeng was aware of his fake identity as the Great Patriarch Sword Saint and maybe that was why she was so gentle to him now.

    As he walked off, he could not help but noticed that Millenium Jun Feitian and Confidant Ur Muyuan had locked eyes with each other.

    Although it was subtle as they pretended not to know each other well but Ji Yuan knows that they were actually intimate lovers as he had personally witnessed them together in the Hermes Pce that fateful night.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was actually not used to the tenderness that was disyed by Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng as he was used to being called a lowly human ve by her.

    If it was not for Confidant Ur Muyuan that was with them, he may even feel more awkward being alone with Jun Qianfeng.

    As they reached the Cardinal Cathedral which was the pce of the Cardinal Priestess, Jun Qianfeng said to Ur Muyuan. "The banquet probably won''t end so quickly. So and take a rest first."

    When Confidant Ur Muyuan was gone, Jun Qianfeng began to smile tenderly to Ji Yuan. "I will always be on your side, no matter who you are."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then Jun Qianfeng had a flustered glow as she lowered her head to say, "Do you think that I am a foolish maiden? That I want to give you a spirit divine weapon so that you can ascend but you have better and don''t even need my help."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I actually appreciate your kind gestures¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng looked delighted, "Really? This is good¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly; he was really not used to being spoken in such a tender manner by Jun Qianfeng.

    But soon, they hade to a great hall of the Cardinal Cathedral and a small banquet was being held inside.

    Ji Yuan saw that Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope, Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen and the Cardinal Herald were all at this small banquet.

    And of course, there was also Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    Ji Yuan briefly locked eyes with Ding Xiaoxiao and he looked a little uneasy.

    As Ji Yuan entered the great hall with Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, Xuan Qiaoqiao immediately smiled. "Holy Harpy 4444 is finally here. What takes you so long?"

    Ji Yuan weakly thought: You know that I have to climb your stupid mountain. And what is this banquet all about?

    Although he had said that, his eyes were already looking at the all the good wines that were at this banquet.

    And he was grinning to himself: This is so tempting¡­ maybe I just have a little sip. I won''t get drunk, right? After all, I am a high level cultivator hahaha¡­.

    Although he was thinking about the good wines, he had to maintain a fa?ade of asking. "Erm, this banquet? What is it for?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ding Xiaoxiao before she giggled softly, "Naturally, it is to wee Maiden Xiaoxiao to the Nightfall Heights. As her friend, naturally you are also invited to this banquet."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly at her answer but he quickly pretended to say with great enthusiasm, "Hahaha, Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, wee to Nightfall Heights. I didn''t expect to see you here today. Hahaha¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was also smiling when she saw Ji Yuan, "I have thought that you may have died somewhere when the Immortal Heavenly Wrath had struck this ce. But you seem to be quite well except for some minor wounds that are visible on you."

    Ji Yuan began tough weakly at her reply.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao continued to say, "And of course, this banquet is also for my dearest confidant Juan Xian''Er as well. It is to wee her back to the Nightfall Heights and to brief us about the situation in the Royal City of Nefarious too."

    As she said that, she noticed that Juan Xian''Er was quietly looking at Ji Yuan and she was not even paying attention to her.

    At the same time, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and Ding Xiaoxiao were all also quietly looking at one another too.

    Although the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald did not know the reason why but it seemed that there was an uneasy tension in the atmosphere when Holy Harpy 4444 had just arrived.

    Ji Yuan naturally could feel the tension as well and he was looking quite awkward too¡­

    Why are all these maidens looking so weirdly at me? I am merely a low level cultivator in this banquet...

    -----------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. There is gunpowder in the atmosphere for this banquet:X

 Chapter 1073 Ji Yuan Is The Mole!

    ?

    Now that Ji Yuan had arrived, the small banquet was kickstarted.

    This intention of this banquet was to wee Juan Xian''Er from the Royal City of Nefarious as well as to wee Ding Xiaoxiao to the Nightfall Heights.

    Now that the banquet had started and everyone seemed to have settled into the banquet''s mood, the Cardinal Patriarch could not resist asking aloud, "I wonder how did the Cardinal Priestess and Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao be friends?"

    It was the curious question that Juan Xian''Er, Jun Qianfeng, Li Yifen, the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald were all curious to know as well.

    Actually, they all wanted to ask how the Cardinal Priestess befriended a high level deste cultivator like Ding Xiaoxiao in the first ce.

    Ji Yuan wanted to step in to make up a story for this when Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled softly as she answered this question, "I have met Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao when I disappeared from the Nightfall Heights a while ago. That is how I have met her and Holy Harpy 4444. The real name of Holy Harpy 4444 is actually Ji Yuan."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had actually been rehearsing about this story for some time already.

    The Cardinal Patriarch answered, "I see¡­"

    Just as he was about to continue another question, Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly said. "I think most of you must be wondering why a high level deste cultivator will be around here, am I right? And you must be curious if I am a half-step immortal or a true immortal too."

    When Ding Xiaoxiao had said this, there were an uneasy mood that settled upon everyone; indeed, most of them were interested to know about this and she was not wrong.

    Her cultivation was a little too high. They could estimate that she must be at least the 8th cultivation realm since she could hover in the air but because she did not fully disy her full profound animus, they really could not tell.

    Even Juan Xian''Er and the Cardinal Patriarch were not able to read her cultivation core as it was shrouded.

    They could only suspect that she may be either a 9th realm cultivator or have a powerful profound treasure that could hide her cultivation realm.

    Ding Xiaoxiao returned a wry smile, "I am a deste immortal from the Immortal Great Deste Realm."

    When she had admitted her origins, many of them were all gasping with disbelief.

    The Cardinal Pope was blinking his eyes, "For an immortal to descend to a lower realm and moreover it is to another firmament of the 6 Divine Realm, won''t the cost for doing so be extremely high?"

    He could not help but ask this question.

    Even the Cardinal Herald was asking, "May we know what is your purpose of paying our realm a visit? And how long are you able to stay here?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly, "Naturally the price is really high. As for how long that I will be staying here, it is just for a short time. I won''t be here in a month''s time. As for my purposes, I am merely sightseeing here."

    She had so casually mentioned that she was only sightseeing in this ce that most of the listeners actually did not quite believe her.

    Not even Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    Ding Xiaoxiao said casually, "But since that I am here and I also know your Great Patriarch Sword Saint quite well, I can offer you my help at the same time."

    The Cardinal Pope was spirited immediately as heughed, "We really need all the help that we can muster against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. This great help is really timely."

    When he had said that, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng could not help but to look at Ji Yuan.

    It was because the fake ''Great Patriarch Sword Saint'' which was Ji Yuan was sitting in this banquet and he was pretending to be a 2nd realm cultivator.

    But no matter if Ding Xiaoxiao''s story was true or not, it was not important for now. It was because the Ancient Race really needed any help that they could muster against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    The Cardinal Herald was now turning to look at Juan Xian''Er, "Now that Maiden Juan Xian''Er is here, you can tell us what has happened in the Royal City of Nefarious?"

    Juan Xian''Er began to sigh heavily, "The Abyssal King Gong Magog is not interested in negotiating with us and he had evenunched a surprise attack on our envoy group, killing or capturing most of us. I am probably the only one that has managed to escape."

    The Cardinal Herald solemnly sighed, "Didn''t we agree to marry the Cardinal Priestess to him? He couldn''t wait for a few days?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er softly said, "Are we still having illusions that the Abyssal King Gong Magog will leave our Ancient Race in peace after he has be emperor? His aim is to establish the Holy Communism to rule the entire Dark Abyssal Realm. Our Old Religion is obsolete in his eyes. He wants to subjugate us instead."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was not eager to be married off to the Abyssal King Gong Magog so she quickly added, "The terrible attack on our Nightfall Heights is proof of that and this won''t be thest that we seen of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom."

    The Cardinal Pope began to sigh heavily, "Do we really need to go to war? None of the other abyssal kingdoms seem to be willing to aid us¡­ not only is Abyssal King Gong Magog a powerful cultivator, he also has the aid of a True Abyssal God the Gong Diablo who is on his side. Can we really win? The survival of our race is at stake in this ce."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked coldly, "After our envoys were all killed by him and after he had attacked our sacred Nightfall Heights, do you think that peace is a possibility? We do have the Great Patriarch Sword Saint to help us and also Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao too. I think we can win."

    The Cardinal Pope gravely said, "Against a powerful True God? I think it isn''t possible."

    The Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Herald were both nodding too as they said together, "We need to discuss this more thoroughly. We cannot risk another conflict with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom anymore¡­"

    "Although we may have won but it was only a narrow victory. We have not fought with some of the powerful abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. At least, we have not even seen the top 10 most powerful abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom yet. Any one of them can give us hell." The Cardinal Pope pointed out.

    The Cardinal Herald gave a hopeful reply, "Maybe after our victory, they will be more susceptible to a peace treaty with us. Diplomacy works best after a victory. I can send our envoys to them for another round of discussion."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was cursing them: They are all pacifists¡­

    At the same time, she was looking a little perplexed when she saw that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was unusually quiet; in the past Li Yifen seemed to be in a hurry to marry her off to the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was actually on her side and that was why she had been in a logger-heads with her mother consort.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao did not know that Li Yifen is now firmly on her side due to Ji Yuan.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan spoke up, "Pardon this lowly cultivator for saying this but I think we should not have any illusions for any peace with this Abyssal King Gong Magog. As for this Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, I think he won''t be able toe just yet."

    The Cardinal Pope asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Why do you say that? He had actuallye 3 months ago and we have all experienced his terrifying oppressing aura."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "If he wants toe, he cane in a blink of an eye."

    Then he turned to the Cardinal Pope and asked, "But he didn''t attack the Nightfall Heights, right?"

    The Cardinal Pope answered, "Not exactly but we can all feel his oppressing profound aura¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted him with a wryly smile, "If he uses his immortal strength then he may not be able to stay in this realm for too long. He needs to conserve his immortal strength until it is necessary for him to act. If I am not wrong, he wants to ensure that this Abyssal King Gong Magog can be the emperor of the abyssals first."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "That is what I am thinking as well too!"

    "Everyone! Don''t believe him!" All of a sudden Herald Ma Laide had appeared by the entrance of the great hall with Millenium Jun Feitian.

    The sudden appearance andmotion that was caused by Herald Ma Laide startled everyone.

    Herald Ma Laide was suddenly pointing his finger at Ji Yuan and he was saying coldly, "I have every reason to believe that this lowly human is a mole that is nted in the Nightfall Heights by the Abyssal King Gong Magog!"

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "I am a mole?!"

    -----------------------

    Author Note:

    1. JY just found out that he is the mole:X

 Chapter 1074 You have any proof?

    Herald Ma Laide confidently pointed at Ji Yuan once more, "This lowly human is the mole of the Abyssal King Gong Magog and the Nefarious Blood Kingdom!"

    Ji Yuan was bitterly frowning, "You sure have a rancid mouth. I will be a mole? I am merely a harmless lowly human. This brother here. You can eat the wrong foods but you cannot say the wrong words!"

    Herald Ma Laide hummed coldly, "This lowly human isn''t as simply as he looks."

    Millenium Jun Feitian was angrily staring at Ji Yuan, "This lying bastard. He dares to lie to us about who he is!"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao rose from her seat and she was saying coldly, "Herald Ma Laide and Millenium Jun Feitian, do you know that we have hosting a banquet here and who gives you the permission to barge in just like this?"

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen was also raising her beautiful voice, "Millenium Jun Feitian, you are out of your ce today. Quickly go back!"

    Even Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was staring coldly at her brother, "Get out of here immediately."

    Juan Xian''Er was gentler with her words but it was still stern, "Holy Harpy Ji Yuan is an elder of the Cardinal Harpy. Please mind your words when you are addressing him. I don''t want to hear anyone calling Holy Harpy Ji Yuan a lowly human."

    Herald Ma Laide was not put off by their warnings and instead he was grinning, "I have proof that this lowly human has lied to us and I can show it to all of you."

    The Cardinal Herald was quick to defend his own elder so he said solemnly, "Since Herald Ma Laide has the proof, we ought to give him a chance to show us the proof first, am I right?"

    The Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Patriarch were also agreeing as they were friends with the Cardinal Herald for a long time.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "He has proof?"

    What proof? I don''t even know that Abyssal King Gong Magog so how can I even be the mole?!

    As the great hall became noisy with everyone''s mutterings, only Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was nonchnt about it.

    It was as though this was none of her business.

    The Cardinal Herald said to Herald Ma Laide, "Quickly show us the proof that you are talking about. But if you have lied to me, don''t me me for being ungraceful with youter."

    Herald Ma Laide smiled confidently as he took out a memory stone, "This memory stone is found by Millenium Jun Feitian in one of our perimeter profound arrays. Please have a look."

    A profound imagery of Ji Yuan climbing the steep mountains of the Nightfall Heights was immediately being disyed from the memory stone.

    When this profound imagery was shown, the great hall became quite quiet and even Ji Yuan was stunned.

    It was because in this profound imagery, Ji Yuan was climbing like an expert and he was kicking and fisting his grip into the steep mountain walls; there was no way it was possible for a 2nd realm cultivator to do that.

    Even if Ji Yuan did not disy his profound aura, it was still obvious to see that his profound strength was much stronger than most high level cultivators as he could be seen punching and kicking the steep mountain walls seemingly like paper.

    Herad Ma Laide stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "4444, is that you in the memory stone? Don''t tell me that it is someone that looks alike to you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Herald were all muttering, "He lies to us about his cultivation realm¡­ he isn''t a low level cultivator at all¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said coldly, "Even so, it isn''t proof that he is a mole at all. As for Ji Yuan''s real cultivation realm, I have already known about this. So this isn''t considered to be lying at all."

    Ji Yuan was muttering to himself: Thanks though but it is still a lie¡­

    Juan Xian''Er was smiling all of a sudden, "You mean this small matter? I have also known about Holy Harpy''s cultivation realm. He didn''t lie to me at all."

    Millenium Jun Feitian hastily said, "Xian''Er, he may not lie to you and the Cardinal Priestess but he has lied to the rest of us. This is unpardonable. Why did he have to lie about his cultivation realm in the first ce? That is because he is concealing something!"

    Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "That''s weird. I also know about Holy Harpy Ji Yuan''s true cultivation realm as well. Did he lie then?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian solemnly said, "You are with the Cardinal Priestess. Naturally you will agree with everything she says¡­"

    "Oh?" The Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had suddenly interrupted him. "I also know about Holy Harpy Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm too. Howe I didn''t know that he has lied to me too?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian said exasperatingly, "He is your elder and of course you are on his side to protect your face! A fact is a fact. You say that you all know about this true cultivation realm but why is he only disying a puny 2nd realm cultivation in front of us? He is hiding something from us. And besides, we got proof that he is a mole for the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Ji Yuan said almost at the same time, "What proof?"

    Li Yifen said unhappily, "You need to proof to use someone of a hideous crime. Holy Harpy Ji Yuan isn''t this sort of a person."

    Juan Xian''Er and Jun Qianfeng were all nodding at the same time, agreeing with the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed coldly, "Where is the proof that Holy Harpy is the mole then?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian smiled as he pped his hands.

    Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang had suddenly walked into the great hall and in her hands was a profound device that was used for spatialmunications.

    She solemnly said, "I''ve found this profound device in Holy Harpy 4444''s personal room just now. After examining this, I found out that the profound array that is within profound device is actually pointing to the Royal City of Nefarious."

    Herald Ma Laide took over from Millenium Jun Feitian as he coldly stared at Ji Yuan, "This is the proof that he has been in cahoots with the Abyssal King Gong Magog. If this matter isn''t so serious, I wouldn''t have barge in just like this."

    The Cardinal Herald was now standing and he was shouting angrily at Ji Yuan, "So you are the spy for the Abyssal King Gong Magog!"

    Even the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Pope were also staring angrily at Ji Yuan now.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "If I say that I have never seen this profound device before, will you believe me?"

    Now he had been pped with this false usation, it was hard for anyone to believe him¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said firmly, "Holy Harpy Ji Yuan, I believe in you."

    "I believe in you too!" Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were saying at the same time.

    Juan Xian''Er was also saying, "I believe him too."

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao was looking with a little amusement as she said nonchntly, "I believe in him too."

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Patriarch, Millenium Jun Feitian, Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang and Herald Ma Laide: ¡­

    They simply could not believe what they were hearing against this overwhelming proof.

    Did they get charmed by the beautiful looks of this lowly human?

    Even Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes as he looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng, Juan Xian''Er and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    The 3 most powerful Cardinals are actually the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Tribune and the Cardinal Pope.

    The Cardinal Patriarch was now saying solemnly, "I am afraid that we have to lock Holy Harpy Ji Yuan for the time being until he can prove his innocent in ording to ourws."

    "I agree as well," the Cardinal Pope said solemnly.

    Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao was exasperated, "You dare?"

    The Cardinal Pope said solemnly, "He is a spy that is sent by the Abyssal King Gong Magog. We have no other choice but to imprison him."

    Herald Ma Laide was suddenly sighing, "I''ve another bad news to report to all of you. I have just learnt that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint was already dead a long time ago."

    When he had said that, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Patriarch, Millenium Jun Feitian and Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang were all looking shocked.

    On the other hand, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and Ding Xiaoxiao did not look surprise by this news at all.

    The Cardinal Patriarch began to say solemnly to Ji Yuan, "Do you want to go peacefully with Millenium Jun Feitian to your prison or do you want to resist?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But before he could protest loudly, there was a soft chuckle that was from Ding Xiaoxiao and this caused everyone to look in her direction.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "What if I can prove that Ji Yuan is not a spy?"

    Ji Yuan began to roll his eyes sheepishly; I can''t even prove my own innocence. You can prove that I am innocence instead?

    Herald Ma Laide hummed coldly, "We already have iron proof that this lowly human is a spy for the Abyssal King Gong Magog. How are you going to prove his innocence? How much time do you need to prove his innocence?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled yfully, "I can prove it now."

    ---------------------

    Author Note:

    1. How is Ding Xiaoxiao going to prove that JY is not a spy?:X

 Chapter 1075 Ding Xiaoxiao Proves JYs innocence

    Herald Ma Laide looked amused, "How are you going to prove it to us¡­."

    As he said that, there was a silhouette of her shadow that shed past him and Ding Xiaoxiao had disappeared from her seat.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he saw that: Not bad. She is pretty fast but my eyes are faster¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly shed to grab Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang by her neck and had smashed her against the celestium walls, causing Holy Yue Wushuang to yell aloud with a terrifying scream.

    This startled everyone, including Ji Yuan who had thought that Ding Xiaoxiao had wanted to p Herald Ma Laide.

    It was only then that Millenium Jun Feitian and Herald Ma Laide had realized what were going on as they tried to save Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang by attacking Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But to their horror, they were swung like they were nothing with just a swing of her scabbard and they were coughing out golden blood as they got mmed against the walls!

    They just could not believe it because the two of them were 7th realm cultivators and this should not even be happening!

    As they tried to step forward again, they were quite startled that they were experiencing great pains in their bodies and it was only then that they had realized that their golden bodies had cracks on the ces that Ding Xiaoxiao had struck them¡­

    Once again, they were in disbelief as they could not even sense when Ding Xiaoxiao had mustered her profound strength and were totally unprepared to resist her¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao did not have to disy her profound animus to use her full profound strength because these two cultivators are not Ji Yuan and they are not even in the league of a 7th realm super cultivator like Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan naturally could see what was going on; the two of them had been oppressed by Ding Xiaoxiao''s killing intents and their reactions had slowed down and moreover they got attacked when they were mustering their profound strength to their divine swords, hence they were quite defenseless on the areas that Ding Xiaoxiao had chosen to strike them.

    As Herald Ma Laide and Millenium Jun Feitian tried to stand up again, Ding Xiaoxiao said to them without turning her back. "If you dare to move a little then don''t me me if you were to lose your heads."

    They had immediately turned ashen immediately at her words, especially when they could sense her killing intents oppressing upon them, suffocating them with her presence; their state of divinities with her was simply too vast!

    Ding Xiaoxiao was now smiling to Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang who was also suffocating from the grip that was on her neck, "Did you nt this profound device in Ji Yuan''s personal room yourself? Will he be so stupid to leave something as obvious as this profound device in his personal room and to wait for you to discover?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes when he had heard her: I am stupid?!

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled coldly to Yue Wushuang, "One falsehood from you and I will snap your neck. Hurry and tell me."

    All the others were startled by Ding Xiaoxiao when she had suddenly made her move.

    The Cardinal Patriarch panicky said, "We can talk easy here¡­"

    Even the Cardinal Herald was panicky saying, "This isn''t right. This is coercion¡­"

    Ji Yuan was also frowning because he was not the type that would force a maiden to submit by interrogating in this manner; he preferred a gentler touch even though he was the victim in this case and he should be happy that Ding Xiaoxiao was helping him in this manner.

    The thing was, Ji Yuan did not really care if he was framed or not despites his stupid expressions that were being disyed; he was used to being framed almost all the time anyway.

    Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang gasped panicky and was as white as sheet; even though this Ding Xiaoxiao had not ask her to swear by her soul sea but she had every reason to believe that she was serious about killing her.

    The crimson eyes of this Ding Xiaoxiao that were gazing upon her was like someone that had killed uncountable strong cultivators and reeked of death despites her alluring and beautiful face.

    At this moment, death permutated into deep recess of her soul and she did not want to die!

    She choked weakly, "Herald Ma Laide¡­ he forces me to do it¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao disyed no emotion but said nonchntly as she tightened her grip on Holy Yue Wushuang''s neck, "Force you? Why should he force you?"

    Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang hesitated for a while before she gasped out painfully, "He¡­ is my lover¡­."

    Herald Ma Laide had turned ashen immediately¡­

    Millenium Jun Feitian turned to stare coldly at Herald Ma Laide, "Is this true?!!!"

    He had turned green because all along he had thought that Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang was his maiden!

    The two of them are making use of him all this while?

    Then what about Confidant Ur Muyuan?

    But Herald Ma Laide did not dare to say anything; this was a secret that was between Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang and himself!

    This piece of news shocked all the others in the great hall.

    The most shocked was naturally Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen who had never thought that her own Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang was in cahoots with Herald Ma Laide and she was even his secret lover!

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed coldly at this reply and asked again, "So this profound device actually belongs to Herald Ma Laide and not Ji Yuan."

    Although this sounded like a question but it was also not a question.

    Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang pleaded panicky, "Yes, it belongs to Herald Ma Laide. Please spare me and let me go, heroine¡­"

    As Ding Xiaoxiao let go off Holy Harpy by dropping her on the ground to recover, she winked in the direction of Ji Yuan. "See. I have found the proof of your innocence."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He began to rub his chin as he said weakly, "This is¡­ really¡­ fast."

    The Cardinal Patriarch was now staring coldly at Herald Ma Laide, "What do you have to say now?"

    Herald Ma Laide panicky said, "Wait! Do you remember that I have just reported to all of you that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint is long dead? Well¡­"

    He had suddenly pointed at Ji Yuan and said coldly, "I have proof also that this lowly human has been marauding as the Great Patriarch Sword Saint!"

    When he had said that, Millenium Jun Feitian, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald and even Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang were all looking stunned.

    Not looking at all surprised, were Juan Xian''Er, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    The Cardinal Patriarch asked Herald Ma Laide solemnly, "Where is your proof?"

    Herald Ma Laide began to smile wryly as he pped his hands thrice and Confidant Ur Muyuan had walked quietly into the great hall.

    He then stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Confidant Ur Muyuan is able to be my witness that this lowly human is masquerading as our Great Patriarch Great Saint!"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was surprised to see Confidant Ur Muyuan. After all, she was one of her own elders from the Argos Pce!

    Confidant Ur Muyuan disyed a faint smile as she entered into the great hall, "Confidant Muyuan greets all the Cardinals and senior elders¡­"

    1. This is not the end of the usations yet!

 Chapter 1076 Savior Ji Yuan

    Chapter 1076 Savior Ji Yuan

    As Confidant Ur Muyuan entered the great hall, she quickly disyed her homage to all the Cardinals and Elders, including a polite nod at Millenium Jun Feitian and Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang.

    Ji Yuan naturally knows that Confidant Ur Muyuan is also a lover of Millenium Jun Feitian and he won''t be surprised that she may be in cahoots with them.

    But he was grinning instead because he was rarely bothered by the plots and he enjoyed watching the plots unraveled before him.

    His only regrets were that Xiang Li and Anyang were not around to witness this.

    One must know that Ji Yuan sometimes had a really nasty habit of overying himself.

    If anyone still recall the time when Ji Yuan was caught red-handedly with the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, he willingly allowed himself to get imprisoned and even tortured just to see the game of his opponents.

    Even without Hua Baiyue or Hua Wuwu helping him, he would still be able to escape eventually. But he just wanted to see what would happen next.

    At that time, he was almost executed by the divine lightning formation of the Celestial Orthodox Sect while ying his waiting game.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was able to be so calm was because he did not have any attachment to protect his good reputation and he could simply walk away without a care to what the others would think of him.

    At this moment, he was thinking:Even if I am the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint, so what? Don''t tell me that you want to retain me?

    The Cardinal Patriarch asked Confidant Ur Muyuan as he nervously looked at Ji Yuan, "Is it true that you have proof that... he isn''t the real Great Patriarch Great Saint?"

    Confidant Ur Muyuan smiled sweetly, "It is the true. I saw this with my very own eyes and I have reported this to Herald Ma Laide in the very first instance."

    She had actually wanted to tell Millenium Jun Feitian but the first person that she had met was Herald Ma Laide so she had told him about this.

    And Herald Ma Laide had told her, "Tell no one about this first."

    Confidant Ur Muyuan continued to say, "For this, I have to start from the very beginning. That day. Or rather 3 days ago, I saw my Cardinal Confidant wrapped herself in ck cloak and she seemed to be in a hurry. So, I cannot resist myself as I follow her."

    3 days ago?

    The Cardinal Patriarch was now looking at the Cardinal Herald and the Cardinal Pope; they all know that the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng had disappeared for 3 days.

    She was not in cultivation?

    She lied to everyone?

    The Cardinal Patriarch was jolted as he solemnly asked, "You saw where she went to?"

    When he had asked this, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen were looking flustered and they were also awkward.

    Confidant Ur Muyuan said calmly, "I saw that she had gone to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. And she was also meeting the Cardinal Harpy and Holy Harpy 4444."

    The Cardinal Patriarch was appalled as he turned to look at the Cardinal Confidant and Cardinal Harpy, "You take him into our sacred Sanctuary of the Forbidden?"

    Herald Ma Laide was smiling immediately; no one other than the Cardinals is to be allowed in the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Breaking this sacredw means the death penalty.

    Li Yifen said solemnly, "This isn''t the fault of the Cardinal Confidant. I am the one that force her to do so."

    Jun Qianfeng was almost in tears as she muttered silently: Mother Consort, you are taking the punishment in my stead?!

    She quickly stepped forward and said firmly, "It isn''t the fault of the Cardinal Harpy! I am to be med! I want to find a spirit divine weapon for¡­ Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan stepped forward to say chivalrously, "Nono, it is me. I am the one that forces them to do so. If you want to me then it is me."

    He did not mind taking the me for these two maidens.

    Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were both startled as they said at the same time, "No, it is me instead!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch weakly said to Confidant Ur Muyuan, "Go on."

    Confidant Ur Muyuan giggled sweetly as she looked at Ji Yuan, "I waited for 3 days and then I see them all exiting from the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Then I saw him putting on a dark cloak and took out a mask before flying to the heavens to confront the Immortal Heavenly Wrath. This is all that I know."

    Millenium Jun Feitian was shocked, "This lowly human is the Great Patriarch Sword Saint? My elder sister and mother consort already know about this¡­"

    Even the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald were both looking quite shocked when they had heard this even though they were expecting Ji Yuan to be the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint.

    From the sheepish look that were on Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao, it was not hard for the other 3 Cardinals to know that they had also already known about this.

    Herald Ma Laide was now pointing at Ji Yuan and said coldly, "Did you hear that? This lowly human dare to marauding as our Great Patriarch Sword Saint and this is another punishable death offense!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch shouted solemnly, "Imperators!"

    Immediately three dozen high level cultivators began to enter into the great hall.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "This is the end¡­"

    The Cardinal Patriarch pointed to Herald Ma Laide and said, "You have all heard him while you are outside. Take him away for interrogation! He is a damn spy of the Abyssal King Gong Magog! Also take Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang away as well!"

    When Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang had heard this, she fainted immediately.

    Herald Ma Laide was shocked, "You are taking me away? What about him then? He is a fake and he even dare to barge into our sacred Sanctuary of the Forbidden!"

    He began to point at Ji Yuan furiously as he said that.

    The Cardinal Patriarch smiled weakly, "This Holy Harpy Ji Yuan¡­ I mean Savior Ji Yuan is our honorable guest. Not once but twice in a row, he has saved our Ancient Race and we are going to need Savior Ji Yuan''s help in theing battle too. How dare you use Savior Ji Yuan of being a fake?"

    Then he raised his voice and said to Herald Ma Laide, "I am the one that gives Savior Ji Yuan the convenient title of this Great Patriarch Sword Saint so that he can help our Ancient Race in secret!"

    Herald Ma Laide was shocked with disbelief when he had heard this, "This¡­ this¡­ no way¡­."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen, Juan Xian''Er, Jun Qianfeng: ¡­

    The 4 maidens were all thinking about the same thing: This Cardinal Patriarch is just trying to butter up to Ji Yuan¡­

    The Cardinal Pope was also quick to add, "Savior Ji Yuan is the savior of our Ancient Race. There is nothing wrong with him paying a little visit to our Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Hahaha¡­"

    "Nothing wrong at all. Hahaha¡­" The Cardinal Herald was also quick to add.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Jun Qianfeng: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    The Cardinal Patriarch repeated his orders, "Take Herald Ma Laide and Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang away!"

    Herald Ma Laide turned to Millenium Jun Feitian to say, "Brother! Help me!"

    But Millenium Jun Feitian spat at him instead, "So you are a mole of the Abyssal King Gong Magog! I have nothing to do with you!"

    Then he was angrily saying to Confidant Ur Muyuan, "Why didn''t you tell me earlier that Holy Harpy 4444 is our savior?!"

    Confidant Ur Muyuan smiled sweetly, "I can''t find you but now you know."

    Millenium Jun Feitian: ¡­

    "Savior Ji Yuan!" There was a great shout from Millenium Jun Feitian as he kowtowed with his head bended low on the ground. "Please take me as your disciple! Please forgive me for the past trespasses!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He rolled his eyes sheepishly as he muttered incoherently to himself, "Can I say no? I don''t want to be thrown down the mountains, you know."

    But he said instead, "No. Because you look down on people that are inferior to you. You just don''t have the heart of the sword dao in you."

    Millenium Jun Feitian began to plead panicky, "I will surely change, I can make an oath to my soul sea!"

    1. Well in a way, JY has found out who the mole is.

 Chapter 1077 Ji Yuans Punishment for Jun Feitian

    Chapter 1077 Ji Yuan''s Punishment for Jun Feitian

    After Millenium Jun Feitian confessed all his misdeeds to Ji Yuan and to all the other Cardinals, he was allowed to leave the banquet hall.

    He had actually wanted to kill Ji Yuan for a couple of reasons.

    It is not only because Ji Yuan is a lowly human but because he has also wanted to protect the Cardinal Priestess from him.

    He also admitted that he had thought of recing the Cardinal Priestess with Juan Xian''Er after the position of the Cardinal Priestess is vacant.

    Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen also defended Millenium Jun Feitian.

    Li Yifen said, "He is just a hothead that can only think in a straight line. That is quite renown in the Nightfall Heights. That is why he is being used by that Herald Ma Laide and also by Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang. s, to think that I had actually trusted her all this while and even thinking of grooming her¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng also pleaded for Millenium Jun Feitian, "Although I don''t get along well with my brother but he is definitely not a servant of the Abyssal King Gong Magog. He is fiercely protective of our Ancient Race."

    Ji Yuan did not deny this as he had witnessed the aggressiveness of Millenium Jun Feitian as he led the Centurions and Cohorts to fight hard against the abyssal army of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan was quite acute to see that Millenium Jun Feitian actually had the respect of his men or else they won''t not obey hismands without any hesitation.

    Millenium Jun Feitian had also admitted that Confidant Ur Muyuan was actually one of his many lovers and also a secret spy that he had nted to keep track of his elder sister the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng.

    Confidant Ur Muyuan actually did not deny this and she had continued to smile sweetly. She merely said, "I am willing to ept any punishment from my Cardinal Confidant, barring expulsion."

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng asked her curiously, "You still expect me to retain you in my services after I have known that you are spying for my brother."

    Confidant Ur Muyuan was actually smarter than she looked and she was usually quite docile.

    Sheughed softly, "Millenium Jun Feitian is your brother and that makes me your little sister-inw. Is it wrong for me to tell my lord and your brother about my elder sister-inw?"

    When Confidant Ur Muyuan had said this, even Jun Qianfeng was also smiling wryly. Also, she was actually quite fond of Ur Muyuan and she would sorely miss her services if she was really not around.

    So she merely waved her fingers, "Await your punishment for now while I think of an appropriate punishment for you."

    Li Yifen said to Ji Yuan, throwing a soft look upon him. "Savior Ji Yuan, I know what Millenium Jun Feitian wants to do to you is unpardonable but I hope that you can be lenient with you. Since the Cardinal Tribune isn''t here, I shall leave his punishment to you instead."

    When she had said this, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald were all agreeing that since Ji Yuan was the target of Millenium Jun Feitian''s aggression, it was more appropriate for Ji Yuan to think of a more suitable punishment instead.

    Also, this is one of the ancient tradition andw of the Ancient Race as well to let the offender decides the punishment.

    Ji Yuan stared coldly at Millenium Jun Feitian, "Punishment, is it? He certainly deserves to die for offending me."

    When he had said this, Millenium Jun Feitian had immediately broken into cold sweats.

    This included Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng as well; no matter what their differences were, they were after all still a family and they did not want Millenium Jun Feitian to die.

    Due to their political differences, they were split into 3 opposing factions.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said to Millenium Jun Feitian, "Therefore your punishment will be to fight for your Cardinal Priestess, fight for the Nightfall Heights, fight for the honor of the Ancient Race. So, Millenium Jun Feitian, do you ept your punishments?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian was stunned, "This¡­ is my punishment? Isn''t this a little too light?"

    Even Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen were looking quite stunned as well.

    Not only them but Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, the 3 other Cardinals were also looking quite startled.

    Confidant Ur Muyuan was also looking surprised; she had thought of pleading for Millenium Jun Feitian too and sharing in his punishments as well. After all, she truly loves Jun Feitian with all her heart.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You want more? Fine. How about stopping your quarrels with the Cardinal Harpy and Cardinal Confidant?"

    Millenium Jun Feitian was startled as he muttered, "Yes, yes¡­"

    Then he quickly patted his chest hard, "I''ll fight for my Cardinal Priestess, fight to defend the Nightfall Heights and to fight for the honor of my Ancient Race till the end of my days! As for¡­"

    He took a guilty look at Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng, "Even if I am the Cardinal Tribune in the future, I''ll not quarrel with them in the future."

    The office of the Cardinal Tribune is the most powerful office in the Nightfall Heights,manding all the elite cultivators and legions of the Nightfall Heights.

    Together with the offices of the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Pope, these 3 offices wield a powerful influence in the policies of the Nightfall Heights.

    Ji Yuan''s light punishment surprised Ding Xiaoxiao who was looking curiously at him.

    Ding Xiaoxiao could not help but muttered, "Why is your punishment so light? At least break his arm or a leg for a hundred years."

    An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!

    But Ji Yuan merelyughed aloud jovially.

    One must know that Ji Yuan was extremely foul mouthed and he could not help it but in reality, he was actually quite a magnanimous fellow.

    If he was not a magnanimous fellow, he would not have united the Five Heavens Peak together again after he had returned as a saint.

    These nasty cultivators at the Five Heaven Peaks had tried to attack his Emperor Hall Sect after it was down on its luck.

    If he was not a magnanimous fellow, he would not have united the unorthodox cultivators together into a single friendly alliance and even befriend Shen Qin as a brother; Shen Qin had actually tried to kill him.

    As long as the offense had note to fruition, Ji Yuan was actually quick to forgive and to forget.

    He had many brothers from his brawls as well, mostly his drinking brothers and he traded slights and insults with them frequently.

    Ji Yuan frowned to Ding Xiaoxiao, "This is enough already."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Li Yifen quickly said to Millenium Jun Feitian and Confidant Ur Muyuan as she was afraid that Ji Yuan might add more to the punishments, "The two of you are dismissed for now. Go now and do not disturb us."

    Millenium Jun Feitian had actually wanted to stay as he was thinking of asking Ji Yuan to ept him as his disciple but Confidant Ur Muyuan gave him a kick as she pulled him away hastily.

    She muttered, "You are injured. You ought to tend to your injuries first¡­"

    Soon, they had exited from the great hall.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Finally peace atst. Where did we stop just now?"

    The Cardinal Patriarch had suddenly said, "I have just received a transmission from my Imperators. Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang has now confessed to be spying for the Abyssal King Gong Magog and Herald Ma Laide is the main conspirator. Not only that, we have also found another of the profound device that he had used to frame Savior Ji Yuan in his spatial ring. Also, Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang is willing to tell us the names of the other conspirators as long as we are willing to give her a lighter sentence."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was looking weakly at Juan Xian''Er as she muttered, "I didn''t know that we have so many moles that are in the Nightfall Height¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er was also muttering with disbelief as she looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao, "He really manages to dig up the moles for us¡­"

    Due to the political differences of the Cardinals and their offices, it was really difficult to find out which of the elders were really the moles.

    Ji Yuan had actually heard Juan Xian''Er and he was looking quite awkward; actually, he was having a hard time trying to find the moles and he even got several false leads. But the moles juste to look for him themselves¡­

    He could only sigh to himself: Why am I so awesome, as always?

 Chapter 1078 The Cardinals are all united

    Chapter 1078 The Cardinals are all united

    Now that Holy Harpy Yue Wushuang was willing to reveal the other moles as well, the banquet had be jovial and the moods were light.

    Ji Yuan had also discarded the disy of his lowly 2nd cultivation realm and restored his golden eyes too.

    There was no reason for him to maintain his lowly cultivation realm anymore since everyone knows that he was the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint now.

    The Cardinal Patriarch continued, "We have actually stopped at why the Abyssal King Gong Magog did not want to make his move against us just now."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "What do the rest of you think about this then?"

    Juan Xian''Er said, "This is something that I have been pondering as well. There is another reason why the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo did not dare to strike against us directly."

    "Oh?" Many of the Cardinals and Ji Yuan were all looking in her direction, curious about what she had to say.

    Juan Xian''Er said gently, "Now that Ji Yuan and Maiden Ding had exined it, this makes even more sense now to me. Even though the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo can destroy the Nightfall Heights if he wishes but he has to pay the cost of returning to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm afterward because we won''t be sitting ducks for him¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a chuckle, "if the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo strikes, then he will surely strike alone or else, the other abyssals will think that their True God is kinda useless and need your help. But in doing so, he has to fight the all the cultivators in the Nightfall Height and even though you may not be able to defeat him but you can definitely make him extract a heavy price in using his immortal power. This will diminish his days in this realm."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled as she looked at Ji Yuan and her eyes were gentle, "Right. This is actually one of the reasons too. Another reason is that the other powerful abyssal kingdoms fear the Nefarious Blood Kingdom as well and if the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo strikes us before the Holy Communion can be fully etched in the Dark Abyssal Realm, he may face mass rebellions by the abyssals when he has ascended back to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

    The Cardinal Pope nodded, "Even though most of the abyssals are converted to the Holy Communism now but many are also believers in the true faith of our Ancient Race too. Many of the abyssals actually consider it to be sacrilegious to attack the Nightfall Heights."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded gently, "Even so this may be the case, the end goal for the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo is topletely destroy our Nightfall Heights. For this, they will use a variety of tricks and means to aplish their goals¡­"

    "Firstly, they force our Cardinal Priestess to enter into matrimony with the Abyssal King Gong Magog. This will give them a legitimate reason to prove the superiority of the Holy Communism over our True Faith. When the abyssals from the other kingdoms witness this, then our Truth Faith will surely weaken in their kingdoms and so will their resolute in defending the True Faith of the Ancient Old Ones."

    "Secondly, by sending a punitive force to test our Nightfall Heights, they hope to let the other abyssal kingdoms see our weaknesses and even our willingness to make concessions. Then in the eyes of the other abyssal races, our True Faith and the Nightfall Heights will lose the prestige that we have among the abyssal races."

    Juan Xian''Er looked slowly at the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Harpy and the Cardinal Confidant, "Are we still going to be pacifists and allow ourselves to be deceived by the schemes of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and their ancestor god the Immortal Abyssal Gong Magog?"

    The Cardinal Herald slowly said, "That is why they have spent so much effort to convert so many of our kind into their moles. I am afraid that most of the moles do not even know that this may be the real intention of the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo."

    The Cardinal Pope slowly nodded, "Some of them may even think that they are ensuring the survival of our Ancient Race but it is actually pushing our Ancient Race to the very edge."

    The Cardinal Patriarch was sighing heavily, "I am wrong. Truly wrong. I thought that by avoiding conflict with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom, I am actually winning peace for our Ancient Race. In the end, all we did is to sacrifice our Cardinal Priestess and to further their nefarious schemes."

    The Cardinal Herald was also saying heavily, "I was misled by some of my elders too¡­"

    Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had now stood up and she was looking awkwardly at Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Your Cardinal Priestess, I am so sorry that I''ve been nasty toward you and even thinks that forcing you to be betrothed to the Abyssal King Gong Magog is actually a good idea."

    Li Yifen was actually also one of the pacifists too. But she was now standing firmly behind Ji Yuan. Since Ji Yuan is a friend of the Cardinal Priestess, she has also fully converted to her side and now she hopes to get into the Cardinal Priestess'' good books.

    In fact, most of the Cardinals were pacifists before this except for the Cardinal Confident Jun Qianfeng who stands firmly behind the Cardinal Priestess.

    Even though Jun Qianfeng is firmly behind the Cardinal Priestess, this does not mean that she has to like Ji Yuan as she had suspected him to be up to no good.

    In fact, Ji Yuan had even suspected at some point of the time that Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng may be a mole because she appeared to be quite nasty toward him.

    The Cardinal Patriarch stood up from his banquet seat and raised his fists angrily, "If so, we should close all negotiations and prepare fully for a fight!"

    "We have Savior Ji Yuan to help us to fight Immortal Abyssal Gong Magog, right?" The Cardinal Pope nervously look at Ji Yuan.

    Even the Cardinal Herald was looking hopefully at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he took a look at Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er, "To be honest. I can help you deal with the Abyssal King Gong Magog but I am not sure if I may be able to triumph over the Immortal Abyssal Gong Magog. Once they realized that we are not negotiating anymore, theirst resort will be for the Immortal Abyssal Gong Magog to annihte the entire Nightfall Heights. If so, do you all still want to fight? Even if this means the destruction of your entire Ancient Race?"

    Ji Yuan''s question stunned almost everyone.

    But this was a question that was known by everyone and that was the main reason why the Nightfall Heights was willing to negotiate with the Abyssal Blood Kingdom and the Abyssal King Gong Magog in the first ce.

    It is because it is a fact that the Nightfall Heights is weaker than the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and past its glorious heydays!

    Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao broke the silence as she chuckled softly, "You know my stand. I will fight of course."

    When she had said that, Juan Xian''Er could not resist a smile; it was because Xuan Qiaoqiao''s stance was too obvious. She did not want to be married off to an ugly abyssal king in the first ce and she had been opposing to whatever the Cardinal Council had been throwing at her.

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng smiled, "I support my Cardinal Priestess in this decision."

    Li Yifen was also smiling, "I am also in support of my Cardinal Priestess."

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald and the Cardinal Patriarch took a brief look at one another before theyughed aloud together, "Even if our Ancient Race is to be destroyed, we shall fight to the veryst!"

    Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he stole a nce at Ding Xiaoxiao who was quietly watching them: Erm, you will help me this time, right?"

    All of a sudden, an imperator barged breathlessly into the banquet hall and he was panicky saying. "There is an urgent bad news! The Royal Prince Meshech of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom is leading an army against us. He will be here noter than noon tomorrow!"

    Ever since the attack on the Nightfall Heights by the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim, the Ancient Race had increased their scouting range by more than 10 times.

    The Cardinal Patriarch turned pale as he muttered, "They are really fast¡­"

    The Cardinal Herald said, "This Royal Prince Meschech is quite a formidable abyssal cultivator too and he has many top expert abyssal cultivators with him too. This won''t be an easy fight."

    "I wonder if Savior Ji Yuan is able to join in the fight tomorrow?" The Cardinal Herald looked nervously at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had just been through the Immortal Heavenly Wrath and he had also exhausted both of his emperor-step divine swords.

    Also, his wounds were not healing as fast as he had thought.

    It is because the Dark Abyssal Realm is poor in spiritual auras that Ji Yuan depends for his cultivation.

    With Aura also in a deep slumber due to the exhausting Immortal Heavenly Wrath, his inner spiritual sea was now quite emptied.

    But Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "Leave it to me tomorrow."

    Actually Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and even Ding Xiaoxiao could see the state that Ji Yuan was and they could not help disying a look of concern in his direction.

    Author Note:

    I. In this chapter, all the Cardinals of the Ancient Race, minus the Cardinal Tribune are all united now.

 Chapter 1079 Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan XianEr (1)

    Chapter 1079 Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er (1)

    The banquet was finally over.

    Ji Yuan was now alone with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er in another guest hall.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was taken to a guest room that had been specially prepared for her while Ji Yuan was taken to the guest hall first.

    It was because Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had not talked to him in person for quite some time and they were curious to know what he had been doing in the Nightfall Heights all this while until the events that led to the descent of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little upset, "I was so worried about you for the past 3 days and today I finally know that you had entered our Sanctuary of the Forbidden. You are really great."

    For the past 3 days she had been holding onto the Heart Link Ne and had been looking for Ji Yuan; she had even feared that the worst had happened to him.

    She tried to confront the Cardinal Harpy and to her horror, she had also found her to be missing as well.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he ignored her cold remarks, "Well, I was working very hard to find the moles for you. You should thank me instead."

    That was not exactly true; he had been too busy banging Li Yifen and finding the moles were actually quite by ident.

    But he could not tell them that he had been seduced by Li Yifen and it would be awkward to his face.

    Ji Yuan did not care for his reputation but he cared about his face; how could he be seduced by anyone? It should be the other way instead!

    He had actually no idea where to start his investigation after he had realized howplex and intricate the political connections in the Nightfall Heights were.

    But it was toote for any regrets for him.

    Right now, he was staring at Juan Xian''Er and he had been doing so since the beginning; it was because she had reminded him of his Jiajia and there were certain resembles between them.

    Actually, Ji Yuan had only been flirting with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er since the beginning, even he had shown interest in them but it was still flirting too; they are good maidens and Ji Yuan did not really want to hurt them when he had departed from their realm.

    They were not the same as exactly Li Yifen as Li Yifen was a widow and she was only seducing Ji Yuan to make him into her lover as she was too lonely.

    This did not mean that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen is a loose maiden; she has only picked Ji Yuan because of his talents in music and she did not want such a talent to perish too early. Moreover, Ji Yuan also has a beautiful look to back him up.

    Juan Xian''Er was also curious to know why Ji Yuan was inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, "Do you know that it is forbidden for anyone other than Cardinals to enter that ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I know."

    "And yet, you had entered with the Cardinal Harpy and the Cardinal Confidant?" Juan Xian''Er was astonished. "How did you even persuade them to allow you to use their golden si rings to allow you in that ce?"

    "They know that you are that Fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint already?" Xuan Qiaoqiao was also asking him curiously.

    Naturally Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng had only learnt that Ji Yuan was the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint muchter.

    And without Xiang Li and Anyang to rebuke him, Ji Yuan was bold to make up his stories to save his awkward face.

    He must not tell these 2 maidens that he got seduced by Li Yifen and got tempted by her to enter the Shrine of the True Devil God simply because of his curiosity.

    Ji Yuan solemnly said as he rolled his golden eyes sheepishly, "Why did I have to enter the Sanctuary of the Forbidden¡­"

    He did not expect for his false identity as the Great Patriarch Great Saint to be discovered and therefore, he had not really thought of an excuse first.

    Also, he was not even trying to be any Great Patriarch Great Saint too but it was Xuan Qiaoqiao that had hinted for him to take this identity when he was being confronted by the Cardinals.

    So he asked instead, "I don''t understand. I''ve entered the Sanctuary of the Forbidden but why is that the Cardinal Patriarch and the others seem like they are not bothered by it?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "That is because by then they have already known that you are that masked man and a 9th realm half-immortal that can tank the Immortal Heavenly Wrath. Do you think that they will offend such a powerful half-immortal cultivator like you, even if you are a human?"

    She then added with another chuckle, "Moreover, you had saved us from the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim too. Even though what you did is not allowed but in the face of absolute power, they are quite flexible to bend their principles."

    Juan Xian''Er was also smiling, "If they are not so flexible, why do you think they will try to pacify the Abyssal King Gong Magog instead?"

    Ji Yuan nodded and smiled bitterly; this is the same as in the Celestial Realm too. The powerful is thew while the weak has to obey thew.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao agreed with Juan Xian''Er, "And moreover, without your help, we will be screwed by the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim in thest battle. They are actually quite happy that you are on my side and they can''t wait to butter you up. This included Millenium Jun Feitian as well."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Let''s hope that I can live up to all your expectations. Hahaha¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er asked curiously, "That Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao that is with you, she looks really quite formidable and mysterious. Is she stronger than you or weaker than you?"

    "Yeah?" Xuan Qiaoqiao was also looking quite curious. "You are now a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator now. You should be very strong, right? And you even have a true divinity sword. I remember that you seemed to fear her thest time?"

    In front of Juan Xian''Er, Ji Yuan is the alpha of the alphas.

    "I don''t fear her," Ji Yuan frowned. "I am stronger than her. In fact, she has been pestering me to¡­ erm¡­ teach her one or two tricks on how to improve her profound sword art."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded slowly, "I see now."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao however had a dubious look as she noticed that in front of Ding Xiaoxiao, Ji Yuan was like a little cat and he was not talkative at all.

    But she could not resist asking Ji Yuan, "But it seems that she is here to look for you instead."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "She saw the Immortal Heavenly Wrath, that''s why. She doesn''t know that I am the one that triggered it."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao pointed out, "But she isn''t leaving after that. She is staying because of you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Maybe she just wants to see my miseries¡­"

    "Huh?" Juan Xian''Er was startled, "Why did you just say? I don''t think so."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "You are not her. Why do you think this isn''t the case?"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "Even though she doesn''t seem too interested in the banquet earlier but there were quite few times that I had caught her looking in your way. You must be feeling quite delighted that such a beautiful maiden is interested in you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She is only interested to fight me¡­

    But he couldn''t tell Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao that Ding Xiaoxiao was not exactly a friend of his and they had an agreement to fight in the Celestial Realm.

    He did not want to tell them that Ding Xiaoxiao was actually his opponent or else they would be freaked out.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly solemn as she said tenderly to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, thank you so much. You have really helped me so much. The other Cardinals are no longer forcing me to marry that ugly abyssal king anymore. You have no idea how happy I am and it is all thanks to you."

    Juan Xian''Er was also smiling pleasantly, "I am so happy for my sister here too."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "This is nothing at all."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ji Yuan tenderly, "You did this all for me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was looking quite startled when Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly looking so tenderly at him. "It is nothing at all¡­"

    She then gave Ji Yuan a small cup of a really fragrance looking wine and smiled to him, "Let Qiaoqiao toasts you for this great help."

    Ji Yuanughed as he finished the wine in a single gulp, "This is really a good wine! If you don''t mind, I can have more. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said slowly to him, "Ji Yuan, do you still remember that you have promised to take me as your consort?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm¡­ yes?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled coolly all of a sudden as she had suddenly stabbed Ji Yuan on his chest with her pointed fingers.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly in a daze and he was feeling quite shocked after being attacked, "What did you just do to me?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao tenderly said, "I''ve just added a little profound drug to your wine when I was toasting you earlier. Even though you may be a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator but at your current weaken state, I am afraid that it is too a littlete for you to plunge it now."

    She then took a look at Juan Xian''Er who was looking quite apologetic and she was saying softly, "Savior Ji Yuan, please forgive the two of us."

    Ji Yuan was shocked as he tried to stand up but he was feeling too weak and dazed.

    He had been so careless and he had let his guard down as he had never thought that Xuan Qiaoqiao would actually try to harm him!

    This was an event that caught him by surprise.

    Before he had closed his eyes, he saw that Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had slipped their exquisite robes down to the ground¡­

    1. JY thought that he has escaped from answering why he was in the Sanctuary of the Forbidden but he didn''t escape from another thing in the end.

 Chapter 1080 Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xianâ€™Er (2)

    Chapter 1080 Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian¡¯Er (2)

    Ji Yuan was gently carried to the bed by Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er who had undressedpletely together.

    Their undies were thrown randomly on the ground as their thoughts were only on Ji Yuan.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were looking quite awkward together as they were now naked in front of the unconscious Ji Yuan.

    Although Ji Yuan had been drugged by a powerful 6th rank profound drug that could even knock down a half-step immortal but Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had severely underestimate Ji Yuan''s ability to recover.

    They had also underestimated Ji Yuan''s 9th realm immortal body which was unique.

    In just a short 10 000 breaths, Ji Yuan could recoverpletely from the powerful 6th rank profound drug.

    In just 100 breaths, Ji Yuan was able to regain his consciousness in his inner spiritual sea.

    And Little Yui was saying to him: Master, a powerful profound drug is paralyzing your body. Little Yui can help you to absorb it and freed your body.

    Ji Yuan panicky said: No, no Little Yui! Don''t! I am alright!

    Little Yui was perplexed: Your body is alright?

    But Ji Yuan was not paying any attention to Little Yui at all but at the naked Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er; he was not exactly seeing since he had his eyes closed nor he was using his divine sense as he feared that they would discover that his senses were locked onto them.

    But Ji Yuan could ''see'' a short radius around him even if he had his eyes closed due to his extra sensory perception and he was an expert in blind fighting. Even though they still appeared as silhouettes to him but he had a fertile imagination especially when he had already seen them naked before already.

    Juan Xian''Er sighed to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Sister Qiaoqiao, in order to drug Ji Yuan, we have to use a miracle profound pill. You are really generous."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "But you have also agreed with my n this time round, am I right?"

    A flustered Juan Xian''Erughed softly, "I have no idea why I am following your n this time."

    "That is because you know that you can''t hold him firmly in your hands," Xuan Qiaoqiao said shyly. "And because of this, you know that we have no other choices but to do this."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed, "Do you think that Ji Yuan will be upset with us once he has sobered up?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "We giving all the advantages to him. Why should he be angry with us?"

    Ji Yuan was thinking with a delightful grin: Yeah. I won''t be angry. Why don''t you hurry up and do your worst on me?

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "To think that the two of us who are half-step immortals will need to retort to this to retain his heart."

    Xuan Qiaoqiaoughed softly, "Don''t forget about our oath. I can''t do this alone so you have to join me."

    Juan Xian''Er said sheepishly, "Why did I have to make that silly oath with you in the past to share weal and woe together¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiaoughed softly, "What is mine shall be yours too, what is yours shall be mine too. Don''t forget our blood oath."

    Juan Xian''Er muttered weakly, "I am sure that when I made that oath of sisterhood with you, this isn''t my original intention. And we even made an oath to die on the same day too."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled, "Sharing everything together means everything, including a lord consort. Isn''t what you had said to me when you share with me your secrets of cultivating to the False Immortal level?"

    Juan Xian''Er: ¡­

    "Then why should I be the little concubine while you are the main consort?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "I was upset! I didn''t mean it! You can be the main consort too. So, shall we begin?"

    Juan Xian''Er asked weakly, "How? You want me to start first? I am still a chaste maiden and I''ve never vited a man before."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao lowered her head coyly, "Me either."

    Juan Xian''Er looked a little exasperated, "My sister! Are you waiting for me to start?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at her with a flustered look, "This¡­ erm¡­ you can have it first."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed weakly, "We promise to share everything together so it is alright for you to start first."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "No, you first."

    When Ji Yuan had heard them, he almost choked out loud withughter but managed to resist it at the very end by muttering some sleepy words.

    He was already impatiently thinking: Why don''t they hurry up? I am already waiting in anticipation¡­

    Ji Yuan had almost jumped up from the bed to demonstrate to them how they were supposed to do it.

    Juan Xian''Er sighed exasperatedly as she pulled out Ji Yuan''s belt, breaking his profound binding with her profound strength.

    "I have pulled the first piece of his clothing. Now it is your turn."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled as she rolled Ji Yuan on the bed as she pulled his outer robe from him, "Now it is your turn."

    Juan Xian''Er weakly said, "Are we ying a game or what?"

    But she pulled out Ji Yuan inner shirt as she revealed his muscr chest and she was gasping softly, "What a beautiful body¡­"

    Then she giggled at Xuan Qiaoqiao as she pointed at Ji Yuan''s pants, "It is your turn now."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­.

    She weakly said, "Maybe I should let Sister Xian''Er do this as well?"

    Juan Xian''Er hummed coldly, "This is all your idea and I am now waiting for your turn."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled weakly as she looked at Ji Yuan''s pants and then she was gasping softly, "Look Sister Xian''Er, there is a bulge on his pants. It isn''t there earlier."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Juan Xian''Er was also gasping softly, "You are right, sister. It isn''t there earlier."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked Juan Xian''Er curiously, "Do you think that Ji Yuan may have a reaction because of us?"

    Juan Xian''Er shook her head, "He is unconscious so it is impossible."

    "Maybe he is having a wet dream now?" Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan was impatiently thinking: How long must they keep talking?

    He was waiting eagerly to be vited by them but they kept talking nonstop.

    Juan Xian''Er said to Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Enough of the distractions. You know that it is your turn now and I''m waiting for you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao shyly said, "Aiya sister! I don''t want to look at his ugly bulge!"

    Ji Yuan weakly thought: Who says my manhood is ugly?!

    Juan Xian''Er was giggling now, "Maybe after you have pulled down his pants, it is a beautiful bulge after all."

    Ji Yuan praised Juan Xian''Er in his mind: Maiden Xian''Er sure has better taste. Later I''ll make sure that you have a good taste of my awesome thing."

    It was now Xuan Qiaoqiao''s turn to murmur weakly, "Maybe this is a bad idea after all. It isn''t a good idea to take advantage of Ji Yuan while he is unconscious¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er interrupted her with a soft chuckle, "Sister, you are the one that suggest this and you are giving it up? Just because you want to skip your turn?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "If sister is willing to take this first step, I don''t mind if we continue a little more¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er said exasperatingly, "Then who is going to lose their chastity to Ji Yuan first? You or me first?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao began to ponder, "This is a good question¡­ hmm¡­ I actually have not thought of this¡­ maybe this needs some careful nning."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "Maybe, we should abort this idea first since you can''t decide."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao reluctantly said, "I guess that we have no other choice other than that¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "It isn''t toote to stop while we are still undiscovered by Ji Yuan. He probably will be quite upset with us once he has realized what we have done to him. It may even be bad for the dao of his heart too."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said with a heavy sigh, "Ji Yuan has saved our Ancient Race and has even helped me to abort the marriage to the Abyssal King Gong Magog. You are right. I shouldn''t repay kindness with evil and do this sort of thing to him."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded, "Let''s go, sister."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded, "Right sister. We shouldn''t dishonor Ji Yuan. Let''s treat this as a dream then."

    Ji Yuan was screaming in his soul sea: Noooooo! Nooooo!!!!! This isn''t fair to me!!!!!

    Little Yui: ???

    His screams were so loud that it even woke up Xiang Li and Anyang as they materialized above his inner spirit sea and they looked sleepy.

    Xiang Li asked sleepily: Big Brother, what has happened?

    Anyang was also curiously asking: My lord, has something happened to you?

    All of a sudden, Xiang Li was giggling: I see two beautiful naked maidens that are outside¡­ they are Maiden Xuan Qiaoqiao and Maiden Juan Xian''Er.

    Anyang was also giggling: Why are they naked with our lord?

    Xiang Li asked: Did Big Brother just bang them or what while we are sleeping? Did we miss a show or what?

 Chapter 1081 The Royal Prince Gong Meshech (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1081 The Royal Prince Gong Meshech (1)</h4>

    The very next day.

    The situation at the Nightfall Heights had be chaotic again.

    It was because the Royal Prince Gong Meshech hade with a small toon of 30 flying wyverns; these 30 abyssal cultivators that were riding the flying wyverns were all his elite abyssal knights and they were all at the very least of the upper 7th realm.

    Among them, there were 2 peaked 7th realm abyssal cultivators that were also ranked among the top 10 super cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and any one of them could contest with the False Immortal level of the Ancient Race.

    As for the Royal Prince Gong Meschech himself, he was riding a ck wyvern that was twice the size of the other wyverns.

    As a matter of fact, he was riding a 7th rank profound abyssal beast while the rest of his elite abyssal cultivators were all riding a 6th rank profound abyssal beast.

    When the Royal Prince Gong Meschech of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom had approached, the Cardinals and the cultivators of the Nightfall Heights were there to meet him and they had all appeared in the air with their feather wings.

    Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were naturally among the Cardinals and they looked like an anomaly since they could support themselves in the heavens without any wings.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were both looking quite flustered as they appeared before the Royal Prince Gong Meschech.

    It was not because this Royal Prince Gong Meschech was handsome or beautiful looking. As a matter he was uglier than most abyssals and he had basked his pride on his formidable abyssal body.

    But these two beautiful maidens were still awkward about what had happenedst night between Ji Yuan and them.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were about to dress up and go. But before that, they had to dress up Ji Yuan as well or else their little ruse would be discovered by him.

    By then, Ji Yuan was already hot and impulsive; he had alsopletely thrown his principles away.

    His original intention was just to flirt with these 2 maidens but he did not have the intention to hurt their feelings when he had to leave after his trial.

    But he had suddenly thrown all that out of his window.

    He just could not resist the temptation of two beautiful naked of their peerless calibers in front of him and he was horrified when he had overheard them abandoning their ''n'' to vite him.

    Like a roaring dragon, Ji Yuan had jumped out of the bed and he had grabbed the two naked maidens into the bed with him.

    As he grabbed then, he panicky said. "I can bang both of you at the same time¡­ there is no need to argue over who first and who isst¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were both gasping with shock when Ji Yuan had suddenly sprung in front of them and had caught hold of them with his strong arms.

    They just could not understand how Ji Yuan would be able to break free from the powerful effect of a miracle profound pill in such a short time.

    Their gasps of surprise quickly became lewd moans as Ji Yuan fondled all over them.

    And from there, they had battled throughout the night and were forced to reluctantly finished their business when the Royal Prince Gong Meshech had suddenly arrived.

    Naturally Ji Yuan was not happy to see the Royal Prince Gong Meshech and his cronies because they had ruined his bed battle with Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    The Royal Prince Gong Meshechughed jovially when he saw that there were hundreds of cultivators from the Ancient Race that were meeting him in the heaven and there were thousands more of them on the floor.

    The Ancient Old Ones that were flying to meet him were the Cardinal Priestess, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Herald, Millenium Jun Feitian and two hundred of the most powerful cultivators of the Ancient Race.

    This of course included Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao who were hovering next to Xuan Qiaoqiao the Cardinal Priestess as well.

    The Royal Prince Gong Meshech finished his jovialughter and said coldly, "I am merely the vanguard. To think that there will be so many of you that are here to wee me."

    While he wasughing, his lecherous eyes were looking at the bosoms of Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    He was thinking: The number of rare beauties in the Nightfall Heights are indeed many. If I can capture 1 or 2 of them to be my cultivation cauldron, this will be all too perfect.

    "I wonder which one of you is the Cardinal Priestess?" He lecherously examined the maidens in front of him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao merely hummed coldly but she did not greet him, "I am the Cardinal Priestess."

    The Royal Prince Gong Meschech was delighted that the Cardinal Priestess would be this great beauty but he was also feeling a little sour because the Abyssal King Gong Magog was having her as his bride.

    So he hatched a little scheme to green his father: Maybe I can seduce her to my side¡­

    The Cardinal Patriarch said solemnly all of a sudden, "The Nightfall Heights is the sacred mountain of the abyssals. Even if it is a mighty prince of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom, you can''te and go as you pleases in this ce."

    The Royal Prince Gong Meschech disyed a sudden frown; he had heard that most of the Ancient Race are pacifists? But the attitude today that were disyed by them had a firm killing intent that was directed at his vanguard.

    He had not expected the Cardinal Patriarch to mention the traditions of the Nightfall Heights all of a sudden.

    However, the Royal Prince Gong Meschech was not worried; it was because while his vanguard army was not big but he had numerous powerful abyssal cultivators that could easily defeat a False Immortal level cultivator.

    And he also knows that the Ancient Race has only a handful of False Immortal cultivators now and was not a threat.

    In fact, he even knows that the Cardinal Patriarch was a half-step False Immortal cultivator. But half-step was like a joke in front of him and he could easily ovee this Cardinal Patriarch.

    There was no doubt that the Royal Prince Gong Meschech himself was an extreme abyssal cultivator himself. While he was not ranked but he was as strong as the top 10 abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    That was the reason why the 3 Royal Princes were also like the iron pirs of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and every one of these Royal Princes had their own powerful influences and power to back their strength.

    There were actually 10 other royal princes too but it was in the past; none of them was able to survive the fierce intrigues of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and this was their cruel ways of ensuring that only the strongest survive.

    The Royal Prince Gong Meschech smiled coldly, "I am a mere messenger of the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog. If your Nightfall Heights is willing to surrender the killer of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim then we shall forgive your trespasses. Think no further, this term is really generous to you and this is your only chance."

    Indeed, this term was considered extremely generous considered that the Nightfall Heights had killed an immortal cultivator and also an apprentice of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    But this was also a ruse because the Royal Prince Gong Meschech actually could not decide on the fate of the Nightfall Heights. But in order to weaken the resolute of the Ancient Race and their fighting spirits, he was merely smoking them.

    The Cardinal Patriarch said solemnly, "I am afraid that we can''t ede to your requests. Also, we are canceling the marriage proposal of the Abyssal King Gong Magog to our Cardinal Priestess too. And you can leave too."

    The Royal Prince Gong Meschech: ¡­

    The Royal Prince Gong Meschech immediately flew into an explosive rage, "Do you know who you are addressing here? How dare you show me any disrespect. I give you the face but you did not want the face! Do you really think that I cannot or dare not raze your Nightfall Heights to the ground?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly hovered in front of the Cardinal Patriarch and he was rubbing his nose as he spoke, "Rx. By the way, I am that Great Patriarch Sword Saint that you have mentioned. You can call me Ji Yuan but I am not surrendering myself so you have to take me by force."

    When the Royal Prince Gong Meschech saw that Ji Yuan was a mere human and that his cultivation core was also unstable at the same time, he began tough jovially. "What? You are a mere lowly human? What is your cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Great Empyrean Emperor Ji Yuan is my name. Great Empyrean Emperor is the name of the cultivation realm of my upper 9th immortal realm. I guess that you can also call me a False Immortal of the 9th realm."

 Chapter 1082 The Royal Prince Gong Meshech (2)

    Chapter 1082 The Royal Prince Gong Meshech (2)

    When Ji Yuan had announced his 9th cultivation realm, the backs of the Royal Prince Gong Meschech and his cronies were cold all of a sudden; they actually did not receive any reports that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint is a 9th realm cultivator and were expecting an 8th realm cultivator.

    Moreover, that Great Patriarch Sword Saint may probably be seriously injured or in need of a recuperation after two fierce battles in a matter of days.

    Although an immortal cultivator is extremely powerful, the lower realm isn''t sufficient to support their cultivation and an entire vicinity of profound auras may be voided by them to sustain their own cultivation and recovery.

    But this was not the point.

    Their spies did not tell them that there was an 9th realm cultivator in the ranks of the Nightfall Heights!

    The Royal Prince Gong Meshech naturally did not know that Elder Ma Laide had been caught and that he had also missed Ji Yuan''s battle with the second Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

    An Abyssal cultivator by the name of Ki Xiping immediately sent a secret transmission to Royal Prince Gong Meschech, "This may be a bluff. Why don''t you let me test him out?"

    This Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping was one of the top 10 super abyssal cultivator of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and he was naturally an extremely formidable cultivator.

    "Go then," the Royal Prince Gong Meschech replied in secret to him.

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping immediately rode his wyvern forward andughed coldly, "This Ji Yuan here. Are you even a real 9th realm immortal here? Not even a 9th realm immortal will give themselves such a lofty immortal title such as the Great Empyrean Emperor. By giving yourself such an immortal title and even naming the immortal realm as such, means that you are actually ignorant of the real cultivation realm of the immortals."

    With just a few words, Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping had lightened the atmosphere for the abyssal army on his side and had exposed Ji Yuan''s shameless bluff.

    It was true that Ji Yuan did not know the names of the cultivation realms of the immortals and he was just bluffing his way in front of them.

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping smirked coldly, "Today, I am going to test your human strength. What about we have a one to one? Do you dare to take my challenge?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Who are you?"

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xipingughed coldly, "I am the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping and one of the top 10 super abyssal cultivators in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. So, do you think that I am worthy to fight you one on one?"

    Ji Yuan knows that his cultivation core was still unstable after he had taken the Immortal Heavenly Wrath yesterday and he was still being drained after his tempering. And it was not difficult for his opponents to see that as well.

    That was why he had proimed his cultivation realm to try to frighten them off but this trick did not work.

    One night was too short for him to stabilize his cultivation core and moreover he was in the Dark Abyssal Realm where there were not much of a spiritual aura for him to do his cultivating.

    Also, he was too busy doing something elsest night with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er too.

    But Ji Yuan grinned as he disyed his 9 flying divine swords in front of him, "Hehe, why not?"

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping had suddenly grown a pair of demonic wings and his cultivation realm had suddenly increased to that of an 8th realm cultivation as he flew in front of Ji Yuan.

    In his hand was also a powerful celestial-step crimson dark divine sword.

    Ji Yuan had also enveloped himself with his profound aura but when he had disyed his profound aura, the opposing abyssals were allughing out loud.

    It was because Ji Yuan could only manage to disy a weak 8th realm profound aura as he was severely drained.

    He could not even disy his sword aura as he had drained his sword aura yesterday.

    Even his Ultra Sword Spirit was spent.

    His most powerful sword domain the Harker Crossing of the Million Swords was also spent yesterday as well and even his sword intentions today were quite weak today.

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xipingughed coldly, "Didn''t you say that you are a 9th realm immortal cultivator? Where is your 9th realm immortal profound aura?"

    Ji Yuan face was indeed looking quite awkward as he said with an ugly look, "My body is naturally a 9th realm immortal body. But it isn''t too good for a cultivation senior like me to bully a cultivation junior."

    The truth was that he was not an expert in profound aura in the first ce and it was also difficult for him to disy his profound aura to the 9th realm cultivation when his inner spiritual sea had been depleted and he did not even have the time to stabilize his cultivation core.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Jun Qianfeng, Li Yifen and the others were feeling awkward too as they had an idea what Ji Yuan was experiencing; this war hade too fast for Ji Yuan to recover his profound strength.

    At this moment Ji Yuan was wishing that he would be like the MCs in the cultivation stories that could jump realms to fight their opponents. But the cultivation stories were written in the perspective of the MCs where they could all jump realms to fight a superior cultivator.

    But the truth is that, all the cultivators that is able to reach the 7th realm cultivation are all the blessed sons and daughters of the heavens, having vast cultivation profound treasures at their disposals or luck to make it to the 7th cultivation realm and beyond.

    Therefore, it is actually quite impossible to jump realms to fight a superior cultivator at the higher cultivation realms without any trump cards or by paying a heavy price. Basically everyone has a trump card or two.

    Also, factors such as the cultivator''s current condition and willpower will also determines an oue. One bad day would actually cause a defeat. No one can be an ace all the time unlike in the cultivation stories.

    That is also the reason why the golden celestials of the Celestial Realm seldom broke out in a major conflict as no one actually wants to die in a random manner. It ispletely different from the cultivation stories where dying is somonce and high level cultivators are so receable.

    In Ji Yuan''s Deste Celestial Realm, there is even a celestialw that shields a cultivator from minor trespasses as long as they are willing to hide away for a hundred years.

    But today, Ji Yuan was not in a good condition.

    Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping shouted loudly to Ji Yuan, "Since you im to be my cultivation senior, then surely you don''t mind if I make the first move first?"

    With that, he had dashed at Ji Yuan while swing his crimson divine sword and immediately 9 ming dragons exploded all around him; this was his profound aura and it was also an extremely formidable one.

    Ji Yuan immediately sent his 9 flying swords against the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping but to his dismal, all his flying swords seemed to hit a protective barrier that was created by the profound aura of the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping and all his flying swords were shattered.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned in secret because he could see that mysteriousws that were apanying this Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping that were cancelling his sword intentions and rendering his flying sword domains useless against him.

    This profound aura of the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping was actually a mysterious domain that disrupted and severed any sword intentions or divine intentions around him.

    This Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping was indeed worthy to be called one of the top 10 super abyssal cultivators.

    Ji Yuan immediately called out, "Little Yui!"

    And a ck sword had appeared in his right hand immediately.

    When this ck sword had appeared, it startled the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping, the Royal Prince Gong Meshech immediately.

    It was because this ck sword was a true divinity sword!

    Ji Yuan grinned to the approaching Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping, "How about you try to receive a sword stroke from me instead?"

    With that he said solemnly as he gathered all his sword intentions and profound strength into his ck sword, "One Sword of the Great Void that divides the heavens and the earth; the Dividing Sword of the Great Void."

    When he had said that, a wave of ck profound energies sped toward the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping and had divided him into two seemingly like paper, instantly killing him!

    This stunned all the onlookers for they had never seen anything like this before!

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao was startled as she gasped softly and she was fingering the true divinity sword in her scabbard now.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized the sword art of the True Devil God as he grasped Little Yui in his hands.

    This was mainly due to hisprehension of the Greater Dao of the Heavens that had suddenly inspired him and this had caused him to remember this sword art that he had once used in his past reincarnation.

    But this was not the end of it.

    Behind the dismembered Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping, the ck wave of profound energies continued on its killing path as it had also sliced the Royal Prince Gong Meschech into two and more than a dozen of the abyssal cultivators along with their wyverns had also exploded into ck ball of explosions!

    This was literally a wave of ck explosives that contained lethal killing profound energies!

    Even Ji Yuan was looking quite stunned as he looked at Little Yui the ck sword that was in his hand; a true divinity sword is simply too overpowered¡­

    One must know that Ji Yuan had also divine harmonized perfectly with Little Yui and that was also why he could use Little Yui''s strength as his own.

    In order toprehend a sword art from a true divinity sword, a cultivator may need thousands of years or even forever in the attempt and it may even be in futility.

    But Little Yui was created alongside with the True Devil God and their souls are linked as one. So as long as Ji Yuan could remember orprehend the sword arts of Little Yui, he would be able to use them!

 Chapter 1083 The Dividing One Sword Profound Art

    Chapter 1083 The Dividing One Sword Profound Art

    When Ji Yuan had disyed the sword art of his ck sword, he was actually mustering his life force energies from his cultivation body.

    And this sword art was unlike any of the sword art that Ji Yuan had used before; it was because it was executed using the heavenly dao of Little Yui.

    In order to use the heavenly dao of Little Yui, not only must Ji Yuan gather his sword intentions and life force energies but he also had to word the sword concept of the heavenly dao of this profound sword art aloud which was the One Sword of the Great Void that divides the heavens and the earth; the Dividing Sword of the Great Void.

    Actually, there was a second sword concept that Ji Yuan did not manage to word its sword concept because of cultivation core was too unstable for him to muster his life force energies toplete it.

    The second sword concept is: The Dividing One Sword that destroys all cultivation concepts, returning everything to the Great Void.

    If Ji Yuan could fullyplete this second sword concept, then the ck light of his profound sword art would be even be more powerful.

    But to all the onlookers, this was terrifying enough for it was a powerful immortal profound art that was being disyed and it was impossible for the abyssal cultivators of the middle realm to withstand with their cultivation strength.

    Immediately, the surviving abyssal cultivators that the Royal Prince Gong Meshech were so terrified that they were fleeing in different directions.

    They hadpletely lost their morale when the Abyssal Lord Ki Xiping and the Royal Prince Gong Meshech were suddenly in right before their very eyes.

    Not only that, a peaked abyssal cultivator who was also ranked as one of the top 10 super abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was also ripped apart by the explosive ck light as he tried to use his profound arts against it.

    Al of a sudden, Ding Xiaoxiao was saying softly. "Not so fast! None of you will be escaping Sword Dao of the Universe Border!"

    Although her voice was soft but it was audible to everyone.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly released her sword intentions in a domain all over the vicinity; it was as though there was a sudden slowdown in the time and space.

    Numerous piercing sword energies had materialized and were speeding toward the 15 escaping abyssal cultivators.

    As soon as the profound sword energies had touched them, the sword energies exploded with the profound power of Ding Xiaoxiao''s Sword Dao of the Small Universe.

    Under the Sword Domain of Ding Xiaoxiao''s Sword Dao of the Universe Border, none of the abyssal cultivators could escape and they were all ripped to ribbons.

    Once all the fleeing abyssal cultivators were dead, Ding Xiaoxiao casually reabsorbed the remaining profound sword energies back to herself and dispelled her sword domain.

    The sight of Ding Xiaoxiao''s sword domain shocked the cultivators of the Ancient Race as they had never seen such a powerful sword domain before.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, the other Cardinals and other powerful cultivators of the Ancient Race were all awed by Ding Xiaoxiao''s sudden disy of her sword domain and the killing power that was being disyed.

    This was another profound art of the immortal level that was being disyed!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nervously whispered to Juan Xian''Er, "I know this Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is a formidable immortal cultivator but I didn''t think that she is so formidable. She is a sword saintess like Ji Yuan too?"

    Juan Xian''Er inhaled almost breathlessly as she tried to evaluate the sword domain that she had just seen, "Even if Ji Yuan did not step in help, this sword domain of hers can easily wipe them all out¡­"

    She was not the only one from the Ancient Race that was thinking the same too.

    Many of the Ancient Race had a cold shiver by just thinking if this sword domain was used against them then they would all be dead.

    Some were even wondering between Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao, which one of them was actually a stronger cultivator.

    Ji Yuan naturally had experienced Ding Xiaoxiao''s most powerful sword domain previously and he was already shaking his head at the poor fate of these abyssal cultivators when they were struck by the hundreds of piercing sword energies that were chasing after them.

    The profound power of Ding Xiaoxiao''s Sword Dao of the Small Universe was enough to injure even a 7th realm cultivator fatally and moreover there were hundreds of these piercing profound sword energies.

    It was literally a farewell party for these abyssal cultivators.

    He was unsure if the Sword Dao of the Universe Border was still Ding Xiaoxiao''s most powerful sword domain since she had told him that she had realized another sword domain after she had fought with him.

    This was not something that Ji Yuan wished to find out very soon.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao had certainly witnessed his most powerful sword domain when he had used it against the second Immortal Heavenly Wrath and also the sword art of his ck sword.

    So, Ji Yuan felt a little naked in front of Ding Xiaoxiao as she literally knows his trump cards.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly at Ji Yuan, "I am sorry to have robbed you of your kills. It is just that I don''t like my enemies to flee from under my watchful eyes."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly back at her, "Hahaha¡­ not at all."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled casually to him, "It isn''t easy to wield mastery over a true divinity sword. You ought to exercise a little care when you are handling your true divinity sword. It isn''t a weapon to be used against these small fries."

    Ji Yuan had actually wanted to protest to her that it was easy for her to say so like this; his two emperor swords were broken temporary and he had actually exhausted most of his trump cards as well as his profound strength when he was battling the Immortal Heavenly Wrath yesterday.

    But he quickly decided to keep mum over this because he was a little afraid that he may offend Ding Xiaoxiao by ident.

    And he could only say weakly, "I think Maiden Xiaoxiao is so beautiful today especially when you are disying your Sword Dao of the Universe Border. The gracefulness of your sword is truly unparallel. Hahaha¡­"

    He had randomly said this to her because he had actually wanted to make his protest but barely had he opened his mouth, he had realized he may be screwing himself with his protest. So instead of protesting, he had quickly said something that was random.

    When Ding Xiaoxiao had heard Ji Yuan, there was a quiet look on her countenance as she looked intently at him. "You really think so?"

    Ji Yuan panicky answered as he feared for the worst, "Yes, yes. Of course. Hahaha¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao faintly smiled as she disyed a dazed look at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw the look on her countenance and he was thinking: Surely you are not thinking of something funny now, right? Not another gambit or a duel, right?

 Chapter 1084 The Plan to attack the Nightfall Heights

    Chapter 1084 The n to attack the Nightfall Heights

    In the Royal City of Nefarious.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was not only enraged but he waspletely stunned. And he was not the only ones.

    The other two royal princes, the Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal were also stunned.

    It was because the vanguard force that was being led by Prince Gong Meshech had beenpletely annihted.

    The annihtion was soplete that none of the cultivators that were with the Prince Gong Meschech hade back from their expedition.

    This was quite impossible for them to believe.

    Not only was Prince Gong Meschech himself a formidable powerful abyssal cultivator with many profound treasures and trump cards but he was also being apanied by 2 of the top 10 super abyssal cultivators in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    It was just impossible to have not even a single survivor and not even a single report.

    What was more, Herald Ma Laide had not been contacting the Abyssal King Gong Magog as well.

    Herald Ma Laide was the highest level mole of the Abyssal King Gong Magog and he was also the only one that had been given a secret profound transmitter to correspond with the Abyssal King Gong Magog directly.

    Something had happened in the Nightfall Heights and it did not look well at all.

    Naturally the Abyssal King Gong Magog did not know that if he had not told Herald Ma Laide that the Great Patriarch Sword Saint was a fake then he would not have blown his own cover.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog said to Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal, "Our reverent ancestor the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo is in need to be in cultivation for the next 3 days in order tomunicate with the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. Therefore, we should not disturb our reverent ancestor for now with something so trivial."

    Prince Gong Tubal was still in disbelief that their scouts had reported no presence of the whereabouts of Prince Gong Meschech and his vanguard.

    He asked, "Is our brother really dead?"

    But their lord father the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog had just checked the life force orb of Prince Meschech and he had solemnly told the two princes, "Your brother the Gong Meshech is now dead."

    Prince Gong Rosh was furious, "What are we waiting for? The Ancient Race dares to kill our brother! If we don''t raze the Nightfall Heights to take vengeance for our brother, we will surely lose our prestige in front of the other abyssal kingdoms!"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog nodded, "This is a blood feud now. We shall bring all our most able abyssal cultivators to attack the Nightfall Heights. Even if they submit to us, I want all their maidens to be our harlots and their men as our herlots. This time round, I shall also lead the attack."

    Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Tubal looked startled.

    But Prince Tubal was soon smiling, "With our lord father personally leading the imperial army, the two of us here plus the top 8 abyssal cultivators in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom as well, the Nightfall Heights won''t be able to stand against our might."

    Prince Gong Rosh was also smiling, "That''s right. By now, all the abyssal kingdoms are already fearful of our might and they would not dare toe to the aid of the Nightfall Heights."

    Prince Gong Tubal smirked coldly, "They don''t have the guts. Our reverence ancestor is the True God of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. All their powerful patriarchs did not want to screw their futures in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. Muhahaha!"

    "It is so good to have a True God as our reverent ancestor." Prince Rosh was alsoughing jovially.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog said coldly, "Just razing the Nightfall Heights won''t be enough to vent my anger and topensate for the loss of my son¡­"

    When he had said that, Prince Rosh and Prince Tubal were curiously looking at their lord father as they waited for him to further rified what he had just meant.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed coldly, "I will hang their Cardinal Priestess naked in the main walls of my Nefarious Blood Kingdom and paraded her in front of her Ancient Race and my kingdom people. Then in front of everyone, I shall vent my frustrations on her. After that when I have absorbed her cultivation attainment, I shall give her to everyone to be toyed with."

    Prince Gong Roshughed jovially, "This is a good idea. But we should also punish all the maidens in the Nightfall Heights in a simr fashion as well. This will teach them the futility of opposing the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and the Holy Communism."

    Prince Gong Tubal nodded, "With the backing of our reverent ancestor, with or without the support of the Ancient Race, our lord father will surely be the Emperor of the Abyssal Races anyway. It is the way of the abyssals to rule by the iron fist of might. Let the strong rules while the weak submits."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog raised his scepter with his scaly ws as he said coldly, "Prepare for our super mobile fortress to go to the Nightfall Heights again. I want 10 000 of our strongest abyssal cultivators to join me in the glorious attack of the Nightfall Heights."

    Prince Gong Roshughed, "I like to imagine their pathetic and frighten faces when they have heard of the strength of our abyssal army."

    "Hahaha," Prince Gong Tubalughed jovially. "They will probably be wearing sacks as they wept and mourned for the forting cmity¡­"

    Prince Gong Rosh smirked, "They will probably try aughablest ditch bid to hold onto their pathetic traditions by offering us profound treasures and the beautiful maidens of their Ancient Race."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog raised his profound voice to say mightily, "Before we arrived at the Nightfall Heights, I want them to be terrified first. Spread the news of our imminent attack! Also, spread the news of our imminent attack to the other abyssal kingdoms as well. I want them to tremble and fear the might of our Nefarious Blood Kingdom!"

    Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubalughed together, "This shall be done!"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog smirked coldly as he clenched his w like fingers, "I want the Ancient Race to experience extreme humiliation and to wipe out their True Faith from the face of our Dark Abyssal Realm!"

    Prince Gong Tubal asked, "So, when are we making the move to the Nightfall Heights then?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog smirked, "With immediately effect. I want all the strongest abyssal cultivators to be gathered at our super mobile fortress within the next 6 hours! Then we shall set off with immediate effect."

    The Prince Gong Rosh suddenly said, "The Deity Destroying Cannons have not finished repairing yet though. Shall we wait a day or two first?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed coldly, "With such a powerful force, do we even need the help of the Deity Destroying Cannons?"

 Chapter 1085 Dual Cultivation (1)

    Chapter 1085 Dual Cultivation (1)

    In the Argos Pce of the Nightfall Heights.

    In the aftermath of the attack from the Royal Prince Gong Meshech, Ji Yuan immediately held an emergency meeting with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er to discuss the next course of action.

    They had decided that this would be a private discussion.

    Li Yifen asked Ji Yuan and Xuan Qiaoqiao, "Shouldn''t it wiser that we have the meeting together? After all, more brains mean a quicker solution?"

    Even Jun Qianfeng and the other Cardinals were curious too.

    Millenium Jun Feitian was eager to demonstrate his worthiness in front of Ji Yuan and he was disappointed that he wouldn''t join in their private discussion first.

    Ji Yuan said solemnly to Li Yifen and the others, "The Cardinal Priestess and Maiden Juan Xian''Er are both at the False Immortal levels. It is more of a cultivation issue than a war strategy against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. That is why I need to talk to them privately."

    When Ji Yuan had exined it, the others quickly realized what it was.

    Indeed, when ites to cultivation, everyone has their own secrets that they do not want to share.

    So, it is actually perfectly understandable why Ji Yuan would want to talk to Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er in private first.

    Li Yifen smiled, "Alright then. Just call us when you are ready. We will first discuss together on our war strategy against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and it may even take us a couple of days."

    The Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch and the Cardinal Herald were all nodding; indeed, the war strategy would need a long time for them to discuss properly. It was because they had never thought they may one day fight against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and was ill-prepared for it.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was not interested in their war ns so she turned around to say, "I''m going to my room first. Call me when Ji Yuan is ready to talk about the war ns."

    Li Yifen looked a little startled, "Maiden Ding, you''re really not going to join us?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "I am not interested."

    With that she had walked off.

    Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng began to look at each other; as mother and daughter, they were both thinking of the same thing now. If Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao was not interested in the war ns then why bother to call her when Ji Yuan is readied to join in the discussions for the war ns?

    Ji Yuan was not paying any attention to the conversation as his attention was caught by Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed softly to herself: A 9th realm cultivator asking help from two eighth realm cultivators? Don''t think that I don''t know what you are up to. Hmph!

    -

    -

    -

    A short whileter.

    Ji Yuan had followed Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er to the Cardinal Cathedral, the pce of the Cardinal Priestess.

    The Cardinal Cathedral is also the ce where the priestess of the Cardinal Confidant and the apostles of the Cardinal Pope are serving.

    As Cardinal Priestess, Xuan Qiaoqiao was mostly a figurehead and had no real influence of her own.

    Soon, Xuan Qiaoqiao had taken Ji Yuan to her bedroom.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao''s bedroom was quiterge and there was even an inner chamber and an outer chamber too.

    Ji Yuan raised his nose to sniff her bedroom and was delighted that it also had a really nice fragrance.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly to Ji Yuan, "So, what cultivation questions do you have in mind?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he immediately grabbed both the waists of Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao, "I am struck with my dual cultivations¡­"

    Then he had pulled them together and thrown them into the big bed.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao gasped softly, "I am polite enough to show you my personal bedroom but you turned up to be a wolf in sheep clothing¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he grabbed their butts, "I''m going to bang the Cardinal Priestess in her bedroom and also her closest sister too in the same bed¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er gasped breathlessly as she tried to fend off Ji Yuan''s constant fondling on her, "Ji Yuan, I say that you are not a Savior but a Lecher instead!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled yfully while he molested them, squeezing and fingering them where he shouldn''t be touching. "I am just continuing what we have left unfinished this morning. Haha¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked him, "Are you sure that you are still capable? You are quite breathless after you have disyed your immortal sword art."

    "What is the name of your immortal sword art," Juan Xian''Er asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "It is called the Dividing One Sword Profound Art."

    "Why is it called the Divine One Sword Profound Art?" Xuan Qiaoqiao asked curiously.

    "Yeah? Why is it so?" Juan Xian''Er was also asking curiously.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "That is because it can only be used only once. That is why it is called the Dividing One Sword."

    Juan Xian''Er was startled, "It can only be used only once?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "You have seen how powerful it is, am I right? This immortal sword art actually demands my life force energies in order to disy its profound power. As you know using life force energies is the same as using true essence too. I can''t use this anyhow I please or else I will surely die."

    Both Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao were both gasping with shock.

    "But how?" Xuan Qiaoqiao asked. "A big confrontation with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom may being soon. Will you be able to recover in time?"

    Juan Xian''Er sighed at the same time, "Life force energies are the life energies of the cultivator. It can only be recovered slowly. That means that you won''t be able to use your immortal sword art when the Nefarious Blood Kingdom attacks us."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Even though this may be the case but I am not the only one that you can depend upon. You saw Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao''s sword domain, am I right? She is actually stronger than me. Maybe you can depend on her¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan were pulling their panties from underneath their short skirts and he was also trying to pull their bunnies out from their clothing, "Let''s talk about thatter. This is more serious¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao were both screaming at Ji Yuan''s attempts to strip them naked and they did not ask Ji Yuan any further.

    Actually, Ji Yuan could still use the Dividing One Sword Profound Art and he had figured out how to use it more efficiently now. But he was not telling anyone because he was keeping this as his trump card.

    Also, he did not use the Dividing One Sword Profound Art to its fullest profound power as well as he could not catch up with the sword concepts that had shed in his mind earlier.

 Chapter 1086 Dual Cultivation (2)

    Chapter 1086 Dual Cultivation (2)

    In the Cardinal Priestess sacred and invite bedroom, Ji Yuan battled with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er for several hours.

    The once consecrated bedroom of Xuan Qiaoqiao was soon desecrated by the great sacrilege of Ji Yuan toward the True Faith of the Ancient Race and their most holy of holiest Cardinal Priestess; he had literally defiled the True Devil God of their True Faith with the impurity of his depraved lusts.

    Not only did he brutally banged and screwed the Cardinal Priestess in the sanctification of her bedroom but he had also undignified her best sister Juan Xian''Er in the same debased unspeakable acts of lewdness that had no words to be described.

    It was totally shameless of Ji Yuan as he dishonored the two peerless maidens into screams of ecstasies, humiliating postures and in sexual lewdness.

    After Ji Yuan had shown them how alpha he was, he was lying on the soft and wet invite bed of the Cardinal Priestess with both the naked and beautiful Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er curling next to him.

    Ji Yuan did not forget to caress the two of them with his dirty hands and arousing them nonstop.

    He felt like he was the winner in this chapter of his life, having banged the three most beautiful maidens in the Nightfall Heights; they are Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Li Yifen.

    This was something unexpected for him since he was expecting the Dark Abyssal Realm to be a horrible ce and he was only thinking of exploring this realm.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said breathlessly to him as Ji Yuan was fondling all over her, "This isn''t right. This is the Cardinal Cathedral, the holiest of ces in the Nightfall Height. We shouldn''t be doing this. This is a great sacrilegious to the True Devil God¡­"

    Even Juan Xian''Er was nodding, "This is bad for our cultivation soul sea¡­ and it will be weighted against us in the future when we cultivate¡­"

    Ji Yuan said as he pinched Xuan Qiaoqiao on her trembling nipples while putting his other hand between Juan Xian''Er thighs, "I guess that it is time to tell you my greatest secret, a secret that I didn''t want to tell you yesterday when you have asked¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er: ???

    Ji Yuan continued solemnly, "Know why I had entered the Sanctuary of the Forbidden? That is because I am the True Devil God and the True God of your True Faith."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had broken into soft chuckles when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    They don''t believe me?!

    They don''t believe a honest cultivator such as me?

    "Don''t joke over this!" Xuan Qiaoqiao warned tenderly, "The True Devil God is the epitome of our True Faith and I am his most holy priestess¡­"

    Ji Yuan thought: Well, I have banged my own most holy priestess now¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao continued tenderly, "We have shown him great disrespect by doing such an unholy act in this ce and of all ces, the sacred bedroom of the Cardinal Priestess. How can I answer to all the past Cardinal Priestesses and to the True Devil God?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But I am the reincarnation of the True Devil God¡­

    Howe in the cultivation stories, when the MCs said something, everyone believes him even though there were no reasons to be given. But for me, my maidens are always doubting my honest answer?

    I really need to check the mirror to see if I look like a chatan or not¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiao interrupted his thoughts, "But I am really curious. Why are you in the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. Also, why are you with the Cardinal Harpy and my Cardinal Confidant inside?"

    Ji Yuan decided to discard his first reply and said weakly, "I was drawn to that ce so I''ve asked them to bring me there."

    Juan Xian''Er looked curiously at Ji Yuan, "Drawn to that ce? By what?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly as he made up another story along the way since his honest answer was rejected, "I guess that the inheritance of the True Devil God is prompting its will upon me to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden."

    When he had said that, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were both gasping with shock, "The inheritance of the True Devil God¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er gasped with a sudden realization, "That''s must be it. I was wondering how you have suddenly be so much stronger than Qiaoqiao and I. In fact, I can''t even tell what your cultivation realm is when I returned here. What is this inheritance of the True Devil God that you have found?"

    "You can share with us?" This was Ji Yuan''s cultivation secret but Xuan Qiaoqiao was really curious what was this inheritance that Ji Yuan was talking about; she is the Cardinal Priestess and yet she has no idea what this inheritance really is.

    Ji Yuan had thought of telling them that he had merged with the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God but they probably won''t believe him. So, he had decided to tell them his version 2.0.

    So he said, "When I was inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, the inner sanctuary inside opened mysterious to let me in. As you know, only when the 7 golden si rings of the Cardinals are gathered then can the sealed gates of the inner sanctuary be able to open¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled as she interrupted while stealing a nce at Juan Xian''Er, "You forget about the true blood of a pureblood Cardinal Priestess."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "That isn''t important. The shrine of the True Devil God opened for me and told me that I am the One and decides to pass his inheritance to me. That''s all. Hahaha¡­"

    "You are the One? What do you mean you are the One?" Xuan Qiaoqiao asked curiously.

    "You didn''t tell us what is your inheritance yet." Juan Xian''Er said exasperatingly.

    Ji Yuan did not want to tell them the details lest his lies would be exposed but since they had asked him, he had no other choice but to weave his fake epic stories¡­

    So he said solemnly while his eyes were secretly exploring Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao enticing bodies, "A voice from within said that I am the One that is able to wield the sword of the True Devil God¡­ that''s it, the true divinity ck sword that you have seen me using¡­"

    Sorry Little Yui. I have to sell you in this story¡­

    "And, I was also given a drop of the true blood essence of the True Devil God for me to increase my cultivation realm to use the true divinity dark sword of the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan had read about that almost all the MCs had received a special inheritance by absorbing the true blood essence of a powerful creature or godly beings in the cultivation stories and gaining a bloodline inheritance. Although it was not supposed to work in this manner and it was azy way of writing for the MCs to inherit powers beyond imagining. But for the gullible readers it was an epted way of writing as long as it is only restricted to the MCs so he had decided to use this story about the true blood essence.

    If true blood essence really works as in the cultivation stories, then all the strongest cultivators and profound beasts would then condense their true blood essences to create unlimited generations of genius cultivators with heaven-defying cultivation means. And the really powerful cultivators would then collect a million types of true blood essences through alliances, exchanges or even by force to make them into an unimaginable monstrous genius cultivator.

    Of course, this logical part of the cultivation stories was convenient neglected to only benefit the MCs.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded, "I see now. So it is how it is."

    Even Juan Xian''Er was saying, "Savior Ji Yuan is so lucky to have received a true blood essence of the True Devil God and his true divinity sword. This is a most lucky cultivation urrence."

    Ji Yuan was startled that they had actually believed him and did not question his story this time.

    He looked a little sheepish that they had actually believed his fake story than the real one.

    But then, because this was actually impossible to realize and that was precisely why they could not verify it. After all, it was impossible to obtain the true blood essence of the True Devil God too.

    Maybe his lie was not too exaggerating as he did not mention that he had inherited the True Devil God''s bloodline and moreover, when he was telling them his fake story, he was also fingering them to arouse them and to distract them. Maybe that why he was able to pass his fake story.

    Juan Xian''Er had suddenly said in a grave manner, "Ji Yuan, there is something that I ought to let you know too since you are my lord now."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Juan Xian''Er began to sigh heavily, "I actually did not know that you would be so powerful as to break my seal of chastity. Because of this, the Immortals of the Ancient Race in the upper immortal realm won''t spare you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    He weakly asked with a most awkward look, "The Immortals of the Ancient Race? What do you mean?"

 Chapter 1087 Triple Cultivation

    Chapter 1087 Triple Cultivation

    Ji Yuan was startled, "The immortals of the Ancient Race?"

    Juan Xian''Er sighed softly, "I am supposed to keep my chastity. Like my Sister Qiaoqiao here, she is supposed to keep her chastity because she is the Cardinal Priestess of the Nightfall Heights. As for me, I am the chosen Cardinal Priestess of the Immortal Ancient Race. We are not supposed to lose our chastity as Cardinal Priestesses because of who we are. All the Cardinal Priestesses are the bride of the True Devil God and we are supposed to be keep ourselves chaste and holy until the day of his return."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao nodded too, "If I were to marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog, then I will immediately lose my status as the Cardinal Priestess. But¡­"

    She sighed woefully as she looked at Juan Xian''Er, "But Sister Xian''Er problem will be a little tricky to resolve. It is because as soon as she loses her chastity mark, the Immortal Ancient Race will know immediately. And you will be hunted."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Luckily, I am in the lower realm. Also, even if I am an immortal, I won''t be going to your part of the immortal realms."

    Juan Xian''Er sighed heavily, "Don''t underestimate the determination of the Immortal Ancient Race for vengeance. I didn''t think that you can break my chastity mark. It is all my fault that day."

    Then she gripped Ji Yuan to say tenderly, "But I don''t regret it. Do you regret it?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he hugged Juan Xian''Er cozy, "I don''t regret it and I mean it. Even if your enemy is the Great Beyond Goddess, I will still take you away."

    Juan Xian''Er quickly put her fingers on Ji Yuan''s lips, "Don''t disrespect the Great Beyond Goddess¡­ you never know if she is listening."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''m sure that the Great Beyond Goddess isn''t that omnipotent. But anyway, there is something that I don''t understand. I''ve thought that your mother consort is the First Cardinal Priestess? But she has you so she shouldn''t have her chastity intact, am I right?"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded slowly, "They killed my mother consort and sacrificed her to the True Devil God."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "That is why," Juan Xian''Er began to sigh woefully. "I have long made a blood oath to seek out the reincarnation of the True Devil God and to sacrifice him to the soul of my mother consort."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly asked, "What if I am the True Devil God?"

    In his first story, he had told Juan Xian''Er that he was the True Devil God but she did not believe him.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled faintly, "Then you won''t be standing here. You are not the True Devil God for sure. The True Devil God is an abyssal god. So, his reincarnation will surely cultivate the infernal profound energies and he will also be a abyssal. You are not."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course I am not the True Devil God¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er asked him with a woeful look, "Funny, isn''t it? The Cardinal Priestess of the True Devil God that actually wanted to kill him."

    Ji Yuan said to her, "Don''t worry, Xian''Er. I will surely help you to spill the blood of the True Devil God."

    Maybe, I just spill the blood of my finger tips a little...

    Juan Xian''Er nodded affectionately at Ji Yuan, "Thank you, Ji Yuan. Not only that, I want to destroy his immortal soul and ensures that he would never be able to reincarnate ever again. And also that despicable immortal that killed my mother consort too."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I help you too¡­"

    At most, I try not to die anymore and don''t reincarnate again...

    Juan Xian''Er burst into tears all of a sudden; she had been putting on a strong front all this while and she could no longer suppress her tears any longer.

    "Ji Yuan, this means that you will be an enemy of the True Devil God. You may even die and loses all your cultivations. For me, do you think that it is worth it? Even that powerful despicable immortal will not spare you too."

    She was now whimpering in front of Ji Yuan and was trembling uncontrobly.

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao was at a loss of words tofort her.

    She tried tofort her Juan Xian''Er by saying, "We have defiled his holy ce and even his two holy priestesses are defiled in this ce. Consider it our bittersweet revenge against him!"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "So what if it is the True Devil God? Even if there are 10 True Devil Gods, I am not afraid. You are my maiden and I will surely protect you."

    Little Yui curiously asked Ji Yuan in his soul sea: But Master, you are the True Devil God.

    Xiang Li and Anyang had returned to their slumber and they were not around or else they would have made the samements as well.

    Ji Yuan weakly said to Little Yui: I''m not the True Devil God. Who says I am the True Devil God? Do I even look like the True Devil God in the first ce?

    Little Yui said: Yes, you look the same as the True Devil God.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said: From now onward, I am the Holy Savior God of the Celestial Realm. The True Devil God is dead from now onward. I''ve killed him now.

    Little Yui asked: You have killed yourself in your dream, Master?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He decided to ignore Little Yui for now.

    Ji Yuan raised his right fist to say solemnly, "Don''t worry, Xian''Er. I will help you to kill the True Devil God. Can you imagine his shock when I use his true divinity sword against him?"

    Juan Xian''Er woefully shook her head, "His sword won''t turn against him. He is the original owner. His true divinity sword is said to apany him since the very beginning¡­"

    Ji Yuan tenderly interrupted Juan Xian''Er, "Don''t worry. I will use my bare hands to rip him to a bloody pulp¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was startled as he shook his fists, "That is weird. Howe I can feel that my cultivation strength is returning?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "Have you forgotten that I have the Nine Yin Divine Body? By dual cultivating with me, you can reap a little benefit to your cultivation. And¡­"

    She took a look at Juan Xian''Er who was still trying topose herself, "My Sister Xian''Er here has the rare Extreme Yin Divine Body. So by dual cultivating with the two of us, your very own cultivation will also be benefitting. Moreover, you are also able to absorb our cultivation strength to be used as your own. That is only because you are now weaker than us and that is why you are able to absorb our profound strength."

    Then she jabbed her fingers tenderly on Ji Yuan and smiled affectionately to him, "Aren''t you the luckiest man in the Six Divine Realms? Do you even know how difficult it is to find a Supreme Yin Divine Body like us that only appears like once every few thousand years and it may not even appear in the same realm. But today, you have my Nine Yin Divine Body to dual cultivate with and my Sister Xian''Er Extreme Yin Divine Body to dual cultivate with as well. Are you lucky or not?"

    Even Juan Xian''Er could not resist a faint smile from her tearful countenance, "You have all the benefits from us now. Aren''t you d to be so lucky?"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "It is no wonder why I feel so energetic after copting with the two of you even though my inner spiritual sea is still as empty as ever. I wonder what will happen if I also dual cultivate with a maiden with the Pure Yin Divine Body?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao chuckled, "Dream on! You won''t be able to find one. If our Supreme Yin Bodies are not so rare, why do you think that the Abyssal King Gong Magog wants my Nine Yin Divine Body for? Do you really think that he wants to dual cultivate with me? He wants to absorb all my attainment to be an invincible cultivator."

    Juan Xian''Er smiled, "You will soon find out the profound effects of dual cultivating with us. And you will be pleasantly shocked by it."

    "No one has ever dual cultivate with even 2 different Supreme Yin Bodies. But dual cultivating with just one Supreme Yin Body is enough to improve the cultivation of the male cultivator. Dual cultivating with the 2 of us means that you may even have a chance to break your bottleneck of the upper 9th realm cultivation¡­"

    Then she giggled softly, "As for dual cultivating with 3 Supreme Yin Bodies, it is hard to imagine the immerse benefits of such a thing."

    Ji Yuan was weakly thinking to himself that he had already banged Li Yifen and she had the Pure Yin Divine Body.

    Li Yifen''s Pure Yin Divine Body is her personal secret so other than her and herte lord consort, no one else knows about this.

    So, it was not wrong to say that he had already banged the 3 Supreme Yin Bodies; the Nine Yin Divine Body, the Pure Yin Divine Body and the Extreme Yin Divine Body.

    All of a sudden Juan Xian''Er said, "Weird. I can feel my cultivation is about to have a breakthrough soon. But this shouldn''t be. Ji Yuan don''t have the Supreme Yang Body¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also checking her soul sea, "Weird too. I feel that my cultivation also has an improvement too¡­"

    All of a sudden the two maidens were looking at Ji Yuan curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t look at me in this manner. I don''t have any Supreme Yang Body like you say. Hahaha¡­"

    Little Yui said in his soul sea: Master, you don''t need any Supreme Yang Body. You are the True Devil God incarnate. You have the strongest body in the entire universe!

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly: You know something, Little Yui. Actually, I am talking about my softest body at this moment¡­

    Little Yui: ???

 Chapter 1088 JY declares his love for XQQ and JXE

    Chapter 1088 JY deres his love for XQQ and JXE

    Now that Ji Yuan knows that there was another method of regaining his profound strength other than depending on Aura to drawn upon the spiritual force energies of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl to replenish his profound strength, he made a bold suggestion to Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    His bold suggestion was naturally to further defile the holy ce of the True Devil God to regain his cultivation strength.

    "Not only can you help me to regain my profound strength in this manner but we can also further desecrate the holy ce of the True Devil God. If I got sufficient profound strength, I can help the Nightfall Heights as well. Maybe I can even discover some of the benefits of dual cultivating with your Nine Yin Divine Body and also your Extreme Yin Divine Body. This is killing 4 birds with one stone."

    Actually, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er did not need much persuading as they were reluctant to untangle themselves from Ji Yuan and they were also afraid that their little escapade would end too soon.

    This was the perfect excuse for them to continue on their little escapade with Ji Yuan.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao coyly smiled to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, the survival of my Ancient Race is at stake now. I am willing to sacrifice myself to save the future of my Ancient Race."

    "Sister Qiaoqiao is so noble. How can I be less noble than her?" Juan Xian''Er''s delicate countenance was flushing shyly as she looked at with great tenderness at Ji Yuan.

    Either Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had wanted their little escapade to end, at least not yet.

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed; like the two maidens, he was also reluctant to part with them.

    All three of them were actually putting on a fa?ade to look noble in front of the other.

    Ji Yuan was also thinking of looking for Li Yifenter; it was because he had not banged her ever since he had merged with the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God and has be a 9th realm immortal cultivator.

    As he was thinking of this, he began to pinch their delicate buttocks; this was a signal that he was about to set himself on them again.

    His yful touches on their butts soon invited bashful giggles from Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    The three of them were soon in a passionate battle once again.

    Ji Yuan was soon howling like an alpha of the alphas as he suppressed these two tender beauties under his weight, causing them to scream and fluttered helplessly.

    "Um¡­ um¡­ don''t¡­ um¡­ don''t Ji Yuan¡­ um¡­ spare us¡­"

    Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat! Pat!

    "Ji Yuan, why are you spanking our butts?"

    "Erm, I am trying to get us into the mood¡­"

    In no time, Ji Yuan got the two alluring beauties into beautiful flushes; they were dripping and trembling with their fragrance sweats, their spring waters and with seductive lewd moans that stirred the hearts.

    Ji Yuan had filled them with passionate heats as they were overwhelmed with waves of pleasurable actions.

    The beautiful alluring bodies of Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er trembled nonstop from Ji Yuan''s simtions and prations.

    Under Ji Yuan''s merciless teasing and prations, their moving seductive moans became more high-pitched and more voluptuous.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were sent to nine heavens several times, climaxing constantly one after another.

    They felt that they were actually Ji Yuan''s harlots but at the same time, they did not want him to stop because they also greatly desired him.

    Several hourster when Ji Yuan had finally stopped, the twitching delicate bodies of Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were spasming violently as they copsed and leaked with indescribable lewdness.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said breathlessly to Juan Xian''Er, "I feel like I have just experienced through an Immortal Heavenly Wrath and ascended to the Immortal Realm¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er nodded weakly as she smiled faintly, "Same here as well¡­"

    By now Ji Yuan had copsed with the two maidens and he was grinning; the spring scenery that he could see was boundless enticing as the two beautiful goddessesy intertwined with him.

    All three of them had a blissful look on their countenances as they looked at one another.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said slowly but her eyes were betrayed her reluctant, "It iste. We should go and check on the war ns discussion now."

    "Yes. We should go now lest the others suspect why we are taking so long," Juan Xian''Er said with a heavy sigh.

    Then she looked shyly at Ji Yuan and said coquettishly, "What do you think, my lord?"

    Ji Yuan said with a straight face, "I am not a lecherous man. I feel that my cultivation strength is much stronger now but why is it that I feel a little tired and sleepy?"

    Juan Xian''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao: ¡­

    They kicked Ji Yuan out of the bed and said together with some exasperation, "Of course you feel tired after you have spilled so much of your yang essence!"

    Juan Xian''Er rebuked him gently, "You are not allowed to sleep for now. Put on your clothing and wait for us outside. We have so much cleaning to do first."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao also said to him with a faint smile, "Find your way to the Argos Pce for the war ns meeting first. We''ll join you soon enough. It is better that we don''t go there at the same time lest the others suspect of our rtionship."

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he quickly disyed his profound animus to clean himself of the impurities.

    Just as he had put on his garment and was about to leave, Juan Xian''Er said woefully to him. "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Xian''Er, Yes?"

    Juan Xian''Er sighed woefully, "I will sorely miss you when you return to the Celestial Realm. You don''t have to take any vendetta for me. I can¡­ settle on my own."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also looking woefully at Ji Yuan¡­

    Actually, the two of them know that Ji Yuan was unable to stay in their realm for too long and yet, they hadmitted themselves to him at the heavy price of losing their honor.

    Ji Yuan was also cursing himself bitterly; he had only wanted to flirt with them but he had lost control of himself.

    He was also at a loss what to say tofort them¡­

    Juan Xian''Er forced herself to smile bravely to Ji Yuan, "No matter what will happen in the future, you will always by my lord."

    "And my lord as well," Xuan Qiaoqiao firmly added and her eyes were bleary.

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "The two of you will always be my consorts as well. The two of you are my love and I love the two of you with all my heart."

    Chapter 1089 Unmoved by 5 Beautiful Maidens

    When Ji Yuan reached the Argos Pce, the war ns discussion was already going-on.

    The ce that the war ns discussion was held was actually much better than Ji Yuan had thought; it was actually arge circr hall.

    All 5 of the Cardinals which were the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Herald, the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen were presented in the inner circr chamber where they faced one another.

    As for Millenium Jun Feitian, he was also there as well as he was the designated Cardinal Tribune in the future.

    Behind them which were the outer circr chamber were more than 300 elders of the Ancient Race that were also presented to hear the war ns discussion.

    Everyone greeted Ji Yuan warmly as he entered the hall.

    "Savior Ji Yuan is finally here¡­"

    "The meeting is going nowhere without him¡­"

    "He looks really dashing¡­"

    Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng immediately smiled and asked Ji Yuan, "You are here alone? Where is the Cardinal Priestess and Juan Xian''Er?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "They areing very soon. They''ve asked me to be here first. Hahaha¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng asked him warmly and she was also looking affectionately at him, "I hope that they are able to answer your cultivation questions."

    Ji Yuan actually had a startled shock when he first entered the hall and saw Jun Qianfeng. It was because she looked extremely beautiful when she was smiling. Also, she was dressed up in a more sophisticated robe that shown her upright bosoms in a sensual way and he could also see her white thighs that exposed along the side of her short robe.

    He had not noticed that Jun Qianfeng is such a great beauty as well.

    The truth is, Jun Qianfeng is really an attractive maiden and she did inherit her mother consort''s great alluring beauty.

    Ji Yuan had sted that she was ugly that time because she had been so cold toward him and he did not find her to be beautiful or attractive as she was constantly having an unhappy demeanor around her.

    The truth was, he had not taken a closer look at her as he was only interested in his mission to find the mole at that time and he had ced her as one of his suspects.

    It was not only Jun Qianfeng that was dressed up to kill; Li Yifen was also wearing an alluring sleeveless and revealing gold iid robe that exposed the curves of her bosoms as well as her white jaded legs.

    If this was not the public, he would have pressed Li Yifen on the meeting table and lift up her short robe to bang her.

    Li Yifen smiled alluring to him, "I hope call you Savior Ji Yuan instead of my Holy Harpy from now onward."

    As she smiled to Ji Yuan, she had also enticingly moved closer toward him to whisper to him that they had reached a deadlock in their discussions. So they were simply waiting for the Cardinal Priestess to arrive first before they briefed her.

    They had decided to adopt a passive approach as they did not know if the Nefarious Blood Kingdom would actually be attacking them.

    But they were under no illusions that the Nefarious Blood Kingdom would spare them lightly for killing their Royal Prince Gong Meschech and causing a blow to the prestige of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    However, Millenium Jun Feitian will be using all the resources of the Cardinal Tribune to prepare themselves for any attack and he will also step up the training paces.

    Li Yifen purposely touched Ji Yuan several times as though it was just an unwittingly necessary as she exined the current development to him. It was quite subtle though and only Ji Yuan was able to know.

    Lastly Li Yifen smiled to him, "We should summon Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao to the meeting room now that you are here."

    With that she had signaled to an attendant that was standing quietly at the entrance of the hall to receive her instructions to summon Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Very soon, Ding Xiaoxiao had also reached the same great hall and Ji Yuan was looking quite stunned and was even mesmerized; it was because Ding Xiaoxiao had tied a pony tail to the left of her head and she was garbed in a short robe that was strapped to her raised bosoms. At the same time, there were many goldences that were wrapped around the exposed parts of her white thigh and sleeveless shoulders.

    Also, Ji Yuan could see that her back was naked as she quietly walked into the great hall before she approached him with a faint smile.

    Ji Yuan know that Ding Xiaoxiao is extremely beautiful but today she is even more beautiful than he had thought and she is like a heavenly fairy that could arouse men with passions just by looking at her.

    As a matter of fact, even the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Herald and many of the elders that were seated above them were all looking quite mesmerized by Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Many of the men including Millenium Jun Feitian seemed to have their eyes popped out and they looked downright lecherous.

    Even Ji Yuan was gulping dryly when Ding Xiaoxiao was suddenly smiling at him.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: Is she smiling at me because she wants to duel with me? If she dresses like this and shes her panties in front of me, I will surely lose for sure¡­ how can I focus on my duel with her¡­

    Just when Ji Yuan was thinking how he should interpret Ding Xiaoxiao''s killer new look, he was further stunned when Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had also walked into the hall in their golden splendid robes that looked quite inexplicit to the eyes, causing many of the men to drool in their direction.

    Even Ji Yuan was rubbing his eyes as he looked at their almost transparent raised bosoms and the outline of their panties in their translucent short robe.

    But unlike the other men, Ji Yuan had one advantage over the other men as he did not need to imagine their assets behind their flimsy robe; it was because he had already seen all and touched all earlier.

    He hovered his golden eyes between Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Ding Xiaoxiao, Jun Qianfeng and Li Yifen; he was beginning to think that he hade to a party banquet instead of a solemn war ns meeting.

    He was not the only one that was also thinking the same.

    Xuan Qiaoqiaoughed softly as she walked to Ji Yuan and she was followed quietly behind by Juan Xian''Er who was smiling wryly at Ji Yuan.

    "Savior Ji Yuan, you are already here." She pretended to ask.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Haha, Ie as soon as I am ready to be here."

    It was only when the Cardinal Priestess had arrived with Juan Xian''Er that many of the elders began to notice that all the five beautiful maidens were all standing quite close to Ji Yuan and he was being surrounded by them.

    It was really an enviable sight and many of the elders were sighing why they did not have such a good fortune to examine these 5 beautiful maidens up close.

    While everyone seemed to be moved by the beautiful scenery of these 5 beautiful maidens, only Ji Yuan appeared to be unmoved and he had maintained a straight face in front of them.

    Many of the elders were praising Ji Yuan in their hearts that it was no wonder why the Savior Ji Yuan had such a high cultivation attainment as he was unmoved by any worldly desires.

    They naturally did not know that Ji Yuan is able to maintain a casual look at all times as Ji Yuan is a fighter that is constantly looking at his opponents for any sights of weaknesses.

    But in this case, he was studying all the little details of the 5 beautiful maidens in front of him as though he was studying his opponent.

    He really had an eye for detail for he was thinking as though he could see through into Ding Xiaoxiao''s short robe: She must be wearing a white panties for sure... because she is Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily...

    In a crucial fight, the tiniest of information will be extremely useful as Ji Yuan studied Ding Xiaoxiao.

    All of a sudden, a cultivator had interrupted the meeting as he barged panicky into the hall. "The Nefarious Blood Kingdom wishes tomunicate with us."

    In his hand was a profoundmunication device.

    The Cardinal Patriarch frowned, "Put it on the table. Let''s see what they want to say then."

 Chapter 1090 The Failed Negotiations (1)

    Chapter 1090 The Failed Negotiations (1)

    Everyone was curious to know what the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was going to say; this would mean either peace or war.

    But at the very least, they would be able to know clearly the intentions of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said panicky as the profoundmunication device wasid on the table, "Remember, we have an agreement that I am not going to marry the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    She had said that for assurances as she was a little worried that the cunning Abyssal King Gong Magog or his envoys would say something that would persuade the Cardinals and elders otherwise; she was determined not to be sold out by her own Ancient Race this time.

    When everyone attention was focused on the profoundmunication device, Ji Yuan was observing Ding Xiaoxiao; he had suddenly noticed that there were no contours under the short skirt of her robe and that there were also noces around her waist or thigh.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly startled: I am wrong that she is wearing white panties today. Or rather, she isn''t wearing any panties today? That means there is nothing underneath her skirt?

    He was excited immediately; this means that he has an advantage if he were to fight her and she would be focusing on protecting her modesty while fighting him.

    This is a perfect opportunity to screw her!

    Ji Yuan quickly corrected himself: Screw her as in fuck her during the duel and not bang her. No wait, not fuck her as that bang, bang but screw her.

    Wait! I am not making any senses!

    Why am I thinking of banging her as well?!

    Well, she did say that I can bang her, right? That is the price for losing a gambit with me¡­

    Then he started to curse himself: Ji Yuan, do you have a death wish for even trying to think about this. Even if you agree to bang her, she won''t agree to let you bang her. In the end, she will just bang you¡­

    While Ji Yuan was struggling with his thoughts, he was actually still looking at Ding Xiaoxiao''s arousing waist and butt; that was the reason why he got distracted and not paying attention to what he was really saying.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had a slight flush as her bared back and curved butt was facing Ji Yuan; it was because she was aware that Ji Yuan was secretly looking at her.

    How could she not know?

    One must know that her instincts are hyper sharp or else she would be the number one sword in the Immortal Deste Realm. And moreover, she has the cultivation that is at the peaked 9th realm.

    She was thinking: Why is he looking at me like this? I am not the only beautiful maiden here. Maybe he likes my dressing?

    Ji Yuan was actually looking at her body though.

    The distraction was quickly over for Ji Yuan as the profoundmunication device began to activate and an imagery of a powerful great red abyssal was revealed before them and he was sitting on a throne; he was extremely powerful built and he was even bigger than the great abyssals in the background.

    It also revealed to everyone an abyssal king that was fired with ambition to be the abyssal emperor and steeled by adversity; a red aristocrat who embraced his noblesse oblige and sees leadership as a birthright while viewing all others as insignificent ants.

    The Cardinal Patriarch gasped with shock, "It is the Abyssal King Gong Magog himself¡­"

    Many of the elders were also gasping with shock and also curious to know what the Abyssal King Gong Magog had wanted to say.

    Ji Yuan was curious to know what the Abyssal King Gong Magog looked like and he got his wish today.

    But he did not go forward to introduce himself as he was contended to stay in the background and let the Cardinals do the talking while he observed the talks.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had also stayed in the background as they did not want the Abyssal King Gong Magog to see them or to give him any funny ideas about themselves.

    What the Abyssal King Gong Magog could see were just the Cardinal Patriarch, the Cardinal Pope, the Cardinal Herald, Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and Millenium Jun Feitian.

    The powerful voice of the Abyssal King Gong Magog began to thunder loudly from the profoundmunication device, "I am sure that we need no introductions. I am here to give you an ultimatum. Either the Nightfall Heights surrender willingly for the death of my son or I wille to pulverize the Nightfall Heights. As a matter of fact, I am already on my way to the Nightfall Heights. In less than 3 days, I will reach with my great nefarious blood abyssal army."

    The Cardinal Pope said angrily, "Do you have still any respects for the True Faith or the Ancient Old Ones? The Nightfall Heights is the holy mountain of the abyssal races and do you really think that your power is truly absolute against the other abyssal kingdoms?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed thunderously, "True faith? Ancient Old ones? You have all be relics in the era of the Holy Communism. Most of the abyssal kingdoms have long converted to the Holy Communism and even the other three great abyssal kingdoms as well. Your True Faith is but a pagan faith with no True God¡­"

    Then he clenched his iron fists and said coldly, "Unlike our Holy Communism, we have the Abyssal True God and Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo firmly behind us. What we are going to do is righteous and you shall all pay for the price of killing my son."

    The Cardinal Herald weakly said, "There is no need to go to war. Why don''t we talk peacefully first before we have decided that we have to fight¡­"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog coldly interrupted, "My good dead son hase peacefully to your Nightfall Heights to invite your Cardinal Priestess to me. And yet, you have brutally killed him¡­"

    Ji Yuan was thinking weakly: Come peacefully? Invite? Are you sure? You are too shameless¡­

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog smirked all of a sudden, "But I can give you onest chance¡­"

    When he had said that, the Cardinal Herald and the Cardinal Pope saw a glimmer of hope for negotiations as they nodded at thisst minute goodwill.

    They were actually thinking that the Abyssal King Gong Magog may be trying to intimidate them first to get a better position at the negotiating table.

    The two of them hope to avert war as the Ancient Race may not win against the powerful Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog said coldly, "Surrender your Cardinal Priestess to me and 10 000 of your Ancient Race''s young and chaste maidens. Then I shall make peace with the Nightfall Heights. After all, I have brought 10 000 of the most powerful abyssal cultivators in my kingdom with me and I don''t want them to go back empty handed without a chaste harlot."

    The peace request stunned all the listeners and many of the faces of the elders had also be extremely ugly.

    The face of the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald were also ugly and they shouted at the same time, "Dream on! Fat hope!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch cursed venomously, "If you want war, then we shall have a war!"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was suddenly smiling, "I ought to let you all know something interesting as well¡­"

 Chapter 1091 The Failed Negotiations (2)

    Chapter 1091 The Failed Negotiations (2)

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog, also known as the Great Abyssal King Gong Magog by all his subjects in his Nefarious Blood Kingdom but the Ancient Old Ones and the other abyssal races in the other kingdoms conveniently removed the ''Great'' from his kingship title.

    Now he was smiling coldly as he disyed his powerful voice, "I ought to let you all know something interesting as well. And you will surely find it interesting."

    Then he had waved his hands and a profound image began to sh through the projected imagery on the side of the Nightfall Heights.

    There were multiple images of several of the monasteries of the Ancient Old Ones that were being attacked and razed throughout the other mountain peaks that were away from the Nightfall Heights; in there the great abyssal cultivators killed the Ancient Old Ones in battle, executed them in cold blood and vited their maidens.

    It was extremely grisly and horrifying.

    The Cardinals and elders of the Nightfall Heights were all furious when they saw the brutal scenes of killing, piging and raping that had taken ce. And they did not even spare the little child from their evil deeds.

    When Ji Yuan saw these images, he had also be angry and he had returned his attention from Ding Xiaoxiao to the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    He had just arrived at the conclusion that he had almost fallen into a ruse that was set by Ding Xiaoxiao for him; she had dressed in this manner so that he could see that he was going to have an advantage and hence, would ept her duel.

    Luckily for him, he did not fall into her carefully nned ruse.

    It was then that he saw these grisly and cruel images. The screaming naked maidens that were set upon by the great abyssals on them especially affected him.

    These grisly images were soon over as it returned to the Abyssal King Gong Magog on his throne seat and he was smiling coldly to them, "Isn''t it interesting? The maidens with the higher cultivation, we have even made them into medicinal pills after we have toyed with them. As for the prettier ones, they will be our harlots until they are spent."

    The Abyssal King Magog looked pleased to see that all the Cardinals were all trembling and this was the effect that he had wanted.

    However, he did not know that he had just united all the Ancient Old Ones in the hall into a united stand in their hatred for the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    If this was their fates, then none of the Ancient Old Ones would be able to ept this and they would fight with everything that they got!

    The Abyssal King Magog said coldly to them, "This is the price for killing my son and my cultivators. For every 1 cultivator that you kill, it shall be repaid not 10 folds but 100 folds!"

    The Cardinal Patriarch said angrily and he was shaking with rage, "100 folds? This war is just between the Nightfall Heights and the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. What does it have to do with the independent monasteries that are in distributed elsewhere? This is a genocide of our race!"

    The Abyssal King Magogughed coldly, "Vermin like your race should be exterminated a long time ago so it is not considered to be a genocide. For too long, your pagan race has enjoyed the glory that is brought upon you by your True Faith. As for now onward, only the Holy Communism shall reign in the Dark Abyssal Realm. There would be no outflow of wealth and cultivation resources to your monasteries anymore and everything will belong to me¡­ I mean the holy state of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom."

    The Cardinal Patriarch raised his voice angrily, "If you want war, you shall have war!"

    The Abyssal King Magog looked amused, "It seems that the lowly vermin still have no idea of the disparity between us. I am bringing 10 000 of the most powerful cultivators in my Nefarious Blood Kingdom including my two royal princes, Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal to the Nightfall Heights as well¡­"

    Then he smirked coldly, "For killing my son, your entire Nightfall Heights shall pay the heavy price for it. Your men shall be wasted and your maidens shall be our harlots for all eternality. And I will also rename the Nightfall Heights into the Gaza Heights tomemorate the holy victory of the Holy Communism over the Pagan True Faith¡­"

    "I don''t understand," Ji Yuan had suddenly stepped forward into visible view. "It is just a few of your people and they are the invaders. What right do you have to punish so many innocents? You should just war with those that can war and spare the innocents. You even kill little children discriminatingly. Did I just see your cultivators bombing the schools and the hospitals with their profound might?"

    "A lowly human?!" The Abyssal King Gong Magog was astonished when he saw Ji Yuan. He could not believe that a lowly human actually had the audacity to speak.

    The Cardinal Pope hummed coldly, "Mind your words! This is Savior Ji Yuan and he is the one that killed your bastardly son Prince Gong Meshech."

    "What?! He is the one that have killed my precious son?!" The Abyssal King Gong Magog was staring coldly at Ji Yuan now.

    Ji Yuan weakly thought as he looked at the Cardinal Pope: Thanks a lot for this¡­ introduction.

    Then he turned to ask the Abyssal King Gong Magog coldly, "You have heard me? Or are you deaf? What right do you have by killing the innocents? If I steal from you, I should get punished. If I kill someone, I should be executed. But what does my family, friends and the others got to do with it?"

    Ji Yuan was upset now because he was the one that had killed the Royal Prince Meschech and he thought that he had brought it upon the Ancient Race.

    But even without Ji Yuan, the Abyssal King Gong Magog would still punish the Ancient Race anyway.

    "What right do I have?" The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed jovially as though he had just heard the funniest thing ever. "Of course, I have the right. The right to defend my Nefarious Blood Kingdom from the evil terrorists of the Ancient Old Ones."

    Ji Yuan was stunned, "The right to defend your Nefarious Blood Kingdom? Youe and we attack you. Is that wrong?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed coldly, "You are getting it wrong. The Nightfall Heights is the promisednd that is promised by our Ancestor Immortal Gong Diablo to us. Therefore, it is ournd and you are the invader. Therefore, we are here to deal our punitive attack on you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao had suddenly stepped forward for the very first time and the lecherous eyes of the Abyssal King Gong Magog had suddenly shifted from Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng to her instead.

    She angrily said, "I don''t care about any promisednd or not. This is our homnd and we know that you want to take it away from us. For so many years, you have surrounded our Nightfall Height and this ce has long be a confinement camp that are dependable on the Nefarious Blood Kingdom for survival. But from today onward, I, the Cardinal Priestess shall dere war on behalf of my Ancient Race against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom!"

    Actually, as the Cardinal Priestess, she had no such right to dere war as the Council of the Six Cardinals holds the real power to decide the fate of the Ancient Race; she is actually just the figurehead.

    But the other Cardinals, including Millenium Jun Feitian and the other elders were all shouting furiously behind her, "War shall it be! War shall it be!"

    Ji Yuan was startled by Xuan Qiaoqiao''s rashness. But by now, he was not too startled as he was already being used to her rashness.

    Even though Juan Xian''Er was startled too when Xuan Qiaoqiao had stormed in front to make her speech but she found herself giving her approval by nodding in agreement; Qiaoqiao is right this time that they should fight the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    Ji Yuan quickly said to the Abyssal King Gong Magog, "You seem to be getting it wrong. It is I who has killed your son. You should look for a lowly human like me to take your vendetta¡­"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog interrupted him coldly, "Does it matter?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then Ji Yuan began to grin as he said, "Oh yes, I have something to tell you as well."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog: ???

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I remember that you got another royal prince. What is his name again? I think he call himself Gong Kombucha. Well, I killed him in the Blood Forest. Heehee. So, I have the blood of two of your sons. I don''t mind taking the heads of all your sons if you dare toe."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog stared furiously at Ji Yuan as he thundered angrily, "So, you are the one!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Yeah. They are both killed by a lowly human. It seems that the Nefarious Blood Kingdom is just so and so."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog suddenly asked, "You are that Great Patriarch Sword Saint?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Smart. So, you have finally figured it out before our battle."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog hummed coldly, "Then I shall rip you apart when we meet soon!"

    "I am afraid that you are mine to kill," Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly stepped forward as she said nonchntly.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was astonished that there was yet another great beauty in this ce and he was looking lecherous at her as well. But she did not look like an Ancient Old One even though she looked just like them; her eyes were actually crimson instead of blue.

    "A deste cultivator?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao lit a faint smile, "That''s right."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog roared withughter, "Maiden, do you mean to say you want to kill me with your charms when you are in my bed chamber? This is a good way of getting my attention on you. I must say that you''ve seeded."

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly said, "Not only will I kill you but I will also dump your desecrated body for all the abyssals to see your nakedness. I will also kill this Gong Diablo too."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws almost dropped when he had heard her and so did the others too.

    Everyone thought that Ding Xiaoxiao was only joking because Gong Diablo is a True God!

 Chapter 1092 Declaration of War

    Chapter 1092 Deration of War

    "If you want a war, you shall have a war then!" The Cardinal Patriarch dered.

    Themunication with the Abyssal King Gong Magog had ended with a nasty deration of war from both sides.

    When the transmission had ended, Ji Yuan asked Ding Xiaoxiao curiously. "You are joking about fighting the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, right?"

    Even Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and the others were all curiously looking at Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked Ji Yuan quietly, "What do you think?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I think that you are only taunting him."

    "Why do you say so?" Ding Xiaoxiao quietly asked him.

    Ji Yuan returned a heavy sigh, "Because we can''t fight him for sure. I think that we should all run once that True God turns up. We will surely be massacred by him for sure¡­"

    "I am not taunting him," Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted him quietly.

    "Huh?" Ji Yuan was startled.

    There was a glimmer of water in Ding Xiaoxiao''s crimson eyes as she said quietly, "When I was just a very small child, my whole vige was massacred in a simr manner and my mother consort was also made into cultivation profound medicine."

    Ji Yuan was startled; this was the very first time that he saw traces of emotions in Ding Xiaoxiao''s aloof demeanor.

    He found himself saying after her, "Don''t worry. We shall make them pay for their atrocities."

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Yuan and their eyes locked together¡­

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "I won''t let you fight that Gong Diablo alone. I''ll fight him along with you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked him, "You are not afraid to die?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I don''t mind dying with a beautiful maiden like you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled by his frivolous remarks and there was a flush beneath her emotionless countenance.

    But she coolly said, "Up to you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao has actually always fought alone and she has no need for any allies. And she did not join the Great Demon God because she wanted any prestige or power but it was to repay the Great Demon God''s favor in allowing her to obtain her true divinity sword.

    So, when she said up to you to Ji Yuan, she was epting Ji Yuan as a friend and an equal.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly at her reply, not knowing the significant of this message; he thought that she did not care for his involvement.

    All of a sudden, the Cardinal Patriarch walked up to say to Ji Yuan. "It seems now that war is inevitable. Savior Ji Yuan, may you say something to all of us? It is to bolster our morale and to steel our conviction for this fight."

    Many of the elders on the outer circr seats were also calling for Ji Yuan to say something to them.

    "Savior Ji Yuan, please say a war speech on our behalf!"

    "We need Savior Ji Yuan''s encouragement¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled to Ji Yuan, "You should say something to all of us."

    Li Yifen was smiling too, "Or y a song for us."

    Ji Yuan was startled by this request but he quickly nodded as he turned to face the Cardinals and the two hundred or so elders that were presented.

    He said solemnly, "Well, I don''t know what to say to everyone. But I must say that I am fully pledged to fight on your side. But this won''t be easy at all because the survival of your race is at stake here¡­"

    Many were nodding when they had heard Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan took a deep breath as he said solemnly, "Many will surely die in this battle. We may even lose. It is because we are not just facing the powerful abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom but we are also facing an abyssal True God. If hees, we may all be dead. I don''t want to say glorifying things to all of you or paint a victorious picture. But this is the truth¡­"

    He sighed heavily, "If we are not fierce enough, we get eliminated by the Nefarious Blood Kingdom. But if we are fierce enough, we may even force the intervention of the abyssal True God Gong Diablo. Either way, this battle will be a difficult one¡­"

    "Although many of us will die but know that the dead will be our martyrs. Your sacrifices won''t be in vain because I will stand firmly to fight this enemy for you. I can choose to run since this world isn''t my world but I won''t. Because I like all of you here and I want to fight for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan meant this with all his heart; the Ancient Race at the Nightfall Heights may well be his own people and he could even be their Ancestor God in the past. At least, he owed this much to them to fight for them even though he did not have the confidence of facing a True God.

    As he said this, he was actually looking in secret at Ding Xiaoxiao; if she joins hands with him, then maybe there is a chance¡­

    They did not need to kill Gong Diablo in order to win; they just have to weaken him enough to send him back to his immortal realm. Even though they may all die but as an immortal, the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo needs plenty of his cultivation strength to anchor himself to this realm and he can''t effectively recover his profound strength while here.

    The n would be to weaken him sufficient enough to send him back to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. This would be able to buy the Ancient Race some valuable time to re-establish themselves elsewhere.

    He was betting that the Gong Diablo would need to expend a great deal of his profound strength in order to kill a 9th realm cultivator like himself.

    Ji Yuan continued solemnly, "In any case, it is good to evacuate the children and the weak from the Nightfall Heights first. No matter what, we should be prepared for the contingencies of us losing this war. The ones that stay shall be the ones that are determined to make a finalst stand against the Nefarious Blood Kingdoms¡­."

    "We don''t need cowards or turncoats in the middle of the battle. If you are afraid to fight then don''t fight. No one will fault you. But if you are not afraid to fight with me, then we shall not be afraid to fight!"

    Ji Yuan''s gaze was looking at everyone one; it was as though he was making a speech at the Five Heavens Peaks just before a battle with the powerful profound beasts.

    In the past, Ji Yuan had led the cultivators of the Five Heavens Peak in quite a few battles against the powerful invading profound beasts from below the deste mists of the mountains.

    He was often called upon to be the alliance leader of the cultivation sects of the Five Heaven Peaks because he was also the strongest cultivator and also a sword saint.

    Ji Yuan would often lead the cultivators by charging first.

    He had no beautiful words to say to the cultivators because the oue to fight tidal waves of the powerful profound beasts had only one oue and that was either they died or the profound beasts will die.

    Ji Yuan had to protect the Five Heavens Peaks on many asions as it was a spiritual force weak region where the deste force was robust, hence attracting hordes of profound beasts in the region.

    He had literally cultivated in a poor region where the other regions were not willing to help because their battles with the profound beasts were an endless one.

    Ji Yuan never make arousing battle speeches but he would make a practical battle speech.

    "I will fight with all of you. I won''t flee from the battle and I may even die. But I won''t abandon the Ancient Race to the atrocities of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom!"

    This was enough already as many of the elders were cheering loudly; when they saw the determination that Ji Yuan was disying, they were all determined to die to defend their Nightfall Heights as well!

    Xuan Qiaoqiao whispered to Juan Xian''Er, "My good sister Xian''Er, I should thank you for finding Ji Yuan to help us."

    Juan Xian''Er nodded but beautiful eyes were mncholy, "Ji Yuan, he is not our race but he is willing to fight for us all¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng was also looking at Ji Yuan and the adtion in her heart increased to a new height.

    As for Li Yifen, she wasforted that she was not wrong to pick him as her lover¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao on the other hand was subtly looking at Ji Yuan and she saw in him a heroic spirit.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was thinking he ought to bang the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen first before the fight.

 Chapter 1093 Ji Yuan and Li Yifen

    Chapter 1093 Ji Yuan and Li Yifen

    Li Yifen and Ji Yuan were soon rolling together in the fragrant bed chamber that belonged to Li Yifen.

    This was actually Ji Yuan''s first time in her personal bed chamber and it was spacious. The ce that he had banged her the first time was actually not her personal bed chamber but her private audience hall.

    This time, it was in a different ce in the Cathedral of the Songs and it was her most personal chamber.

    Ji Yuan had once again stripped her of all her clothing and he was caressing her naked body passionately as they rolled naked together.

    Today, he would be going to bang her in her sacred personal bed chamber.

    Earlier in the war discussion hall, Li Yifen had pretended to ask Ji Yuan if he would be free to go back to the Cathedral of the Songs to check his personal belongings and to stay there.

    Ji Yuan wasted no time to go back with Li Yifen as he was originally staying there even though Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng had also wanted him to visit her Argos Pce.

    Even Millenium Jun Feitian wanted him to go back to the Tribunate Citadel with him to offer him drinks and his hospitality.

    But Ji Yuan pretended to sigh heavily, "I need to go back to the Cathedral of the Songs to cultivate whatever little that I can to prepare myself for the uing battle."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had actually wanted to retain him but they had no excuses to retain him for the night or else the others would suspect something, especially when they already had such a long ''cultivation meeting'' with him.

    Only Li Yifen had the right to invite Ji Yuan back since he was originally staying at the Cathedral of the Songs and he was also the Holy Harpy to begin with; there was no reason to stop an elder of the Cardinal Harpy from returning to his abode.

    But no one had suspected that Ji Yuan was actually passionately kissing Li Yifen in her personal bed chamber now and rolling on her soft feathery bed that was untouched by men.

    He did not forget to secretly put Li Yifen''s exquisiteced panties into his spatial ring while smiling to her, "You are so beautiful today. Do you know that I want to bang you in the meeting hall just now? I''ve been suppressing myself."

    Li Yifenughed softly as she gave Ji Yuan a flustered look, "Really? You are not tempted by her Holiness the Holy Priestess just now? Our Cardinal Priestess is a rare beauty that can cause heads to turn. Even Juan Xian''Er is also an extremely beautiful maiden. Not to mention your friend Maiden Xiaoxiao as well. Even my daughter Qianfeng is also looking in your way all the time."

    Ji Yuan grinned to her, "They are nothingpared to you and you are just my type. I like my maidens more voluptuous and sensuous like you."

    This caused Li Yifen to be looking quite delighted as she allowed Ji Yuan to explore between her legs and lifted her arousing breasts to fondle hard.

    Ji Yuan was actually thinking that since this is actually Li Yifen''s personal bed chamber, the other maidens won''t be able to know about this. So, he can say whatever he likes.

    He did not know that Little Yui is aware of this.

    What he had just said would be used as evidence against him in the future.

    Little Yui was thinking: I need to warn the less voluptuous maidens to hands off from my master then.

    Ji Yuan was already hot with lusts as he entangled with Li Yifen, especially when he saw that she was also hot with lusts too; she was really wet, very wet.

    He was eager to know if his 9th realm cultivation body would be able to benefit more from Li Yifen''s Pure Yin Divine Body this time.

    Then he would have taken the 3 Supreme Yin Bodies at the same time.

    He was not exactly lying when he had told the others that he would be spending the days before the forting battle in his cultivation; in fact, he was trying to cultivate now.

    Ji Yuan was the only man in tens of thousands of years to have copted with 2 Supreme Yin Bodies.

    And he was also the only man that had ever copted with 3 Supreme Yin Bodies, ever.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan had raised Li Yifen''s white buttocks in front of him and he was admiring the picturesque scene.

    She was soon moaning uncontrobly as Ji Yuan entered into her dedicate tender wet valley.

    Just like that, the two of them were once again entangling passionately together for several hours.

    This time round though, Ji Yuan could feel that his profound strength was even stronger.

    The effects of dual cultivation were actually not so immediate and Ji Yuan was also not a cultivator that specialized in dual cultivation; for that the Evil Cultivation Pce is actually the expert in this.

    But for now, Ji Yuan had to make do with whatever he could in his dual cultivation understanding.

    However, he did not bang Li Yifen just because he has lusted after her Pure Yin Divine Body but because Li Yifen is really a most tempting and beautiful maiden so he has desired her too.

    This was already the 3rd time that he was banging Li Yifen and he still could not get enough from her.

    As Ji Yuan was passionately arousing Li Yifen with his love making skills, she asked softly between her moans. "Ji Yuan, what if I get pregnant and you are not around?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "We are cultivators and moreover I am a high level cultivator. As you know, it is quite impossible for high level cultivators to have any child¡­"

    "But I have the Pure Yin Divine Body¡­ I may get pregnant." Li Yifen reminded him.

    Ji Yuan said firmly to her, "Then I shall take you as my consort and not my lover."

    It was only then Li Yifen began to nod with great delight, "But what if my daughter also wants you to take her as your consort? Then won''t this be awkward between us?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Don''t worry about this. It is impossible between Cardinal Confidant Qianfeng and I. Moreover, you shouldn''t be thinking about this. In just a few days, I may even die."

    Li Yifen asked him coyly while Ji Yuan was banging hard into her, sending her to spasm her lewd juices uncontrobly. "Do you have anyst wish? I see if I can help you to fulfill it."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply as his strong chest heaved heavily, "Yeah. It is to a maiden that I like very much back in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Li Yifen asked him curiously, "This maiden seems quite important for you to feel this type of attachment. Can''t you stay?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Yeah. She is very important to me. Because of her, I was able to heal my emotional wounds over the years. My first divine sword was also from her as well and I''ve been using it to this very day. Also, there is a big battle ahead of me in the Celestial Realm too and it is a tough battle too."

    He did not tell her that he is nning to die too in the Celestial Realm as his enemies are some of the most powerful True Gods and Immortals of the Immortal Deste Realm.

    Li Yifen nodded slowly, "I guess that you have to go eventually even if we may be able to win the uing battle."

    Ji Yuan said tenderly to her, "I promise that one day I find a way toe back for you too."

    And for Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er too¡­

    Ji Yuan left the unspoken thoughts in his head.

    Li Yifen moaned uncontrobly when Ji Yuan was suddenly filling her with his yang essence but she could not resist asking him in-between her charming moans, "Ahhhh, then¡­ ahh, ahhhh, it is so good¡­ then this¡­ Maiden Xiaoxiao, you seem to have know her for a long time? Howe she isn''t your maiden? You didn''t think of taking her as your consort?"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Ding Xiaoxiao? As my consort?"

    He did not have a death wish so he had not thought of this before¡­

    --------------------

    Author Note:

    1. An unexpected thing will happen in the next chapter.

 Chapter 1094 The Great Yin Heaven Body

    Chapter 1094 The Great Yin Heaven Body

    Ji Yuan reaction startled Li Yifen as she curiously asked, "The two of you are such formidable sword cultivators. Don''t you think that the two of you are such a match in the heavens?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he thought bitterly: The only problem is that her sword is pointing against me and we are on opposing side. Until now, I have yet to find out about her weaknesses. She just doesn''t want to unsheathe that sword that is in her scabbard. If I am not wrong, that sword must be her ultimate trump card. Yet, I can''t sense anything from her scabbard which must be used to conceal the presence of her divine sword¡­

    "Ji Yuan?" Li Yifen interrupted his thoughts.

    "Yes?" Ji Yuan had suddenly sobered up.

    Li Yifen smiled enticingly as she was wrapped in Ji Yuan''s body, "You don''t find Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao to be appealing to you or is it because she is already taken?"

    "Yea, she is taken." Ji Yuan decided to lie.

    Li Yifen sighed softly, "Such a pity. Her lord must be a formidable cultivator as well."

    Ji Yuan immediately thought of Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming; these 3 are as weak as a pile of shit.

    Even though Shen Qin is a 7th realm Saint and he is one of the weakest Saint that Ji Yuan had ever seen.

    Ji Yuan could not believe how the heck Shen Qin was able to be in the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the first ce with his poorbat ability.

    There is a lot of misunderstandings from reading cultivation stories that all the same realm cultivators are the same except for the MCs. It is the same as saying that the person with the strongest muscle always win.

    For the saint cultivators, even though they have a more powerful profound strength than the 6th realm cultivators and are powerhouses themselves but all the cultivators have their own unique cultivation skills.

    When Ji Yuan was a 7th realm cultivator, he could not im that he was able to defeat even the same realm cultivator because his sword advantage had be his own disadvantage against the power, defense and profound aura cultivators.

    He was actually depending on the divine sword that Jiajia had given him to deliver the extra profound power for him.

    Against the experienced saint cultivators, Ji Yuan''s foundation cultivation was too weak and it was hard for him to gain an advantage if he was fighting many at the same time.

    In a duel or 1 to 1, Ji Yuan often can turn his disadvantage into advantage because he was able to focus on oveing his opponent by exploiting his opponent''s weakness.

    But Shen Qin is also a young saint cultivator that only be a saint cultivator by using his cultivation sect''s resources to advance himself; hecks battle experiences against the more cunning opponents like Ji Yuan despites knowing several formidable powerful profound art.

    To Ji Yuan, Shen Qin was just too slow in his profound art executions and he ought to train himself up.

    Killing Shen Qin with his divine sword is like slicing a piece of paper for Ji Yuan.

    This is aparison when Ji Yuan was at the 7th realm cultivation and now, killing Shen Qin is like killing an ant.

    Other than his beautiful looks, Ji Yuan could not understand why Ding Xiaoxiao was in hispany.

    Not Li Ye, right?

    Li Ye may be a powerful cultivator since he is an Ascended Celestial but his newly attained 6th realm cultivation was nothing in front of Ding Xiaoxiao. Moreover, his beard was also quite ugly unlike his beautiful beard.

    Correction.

    I have since lost my beautiful beard¡­

    He quickly skipped Li Ye and thought of Guo Taiming.

    Maybe Ding Xiaoxiao enjoys the ttery from Guo Taiming?

    But Guo Taiming is both ugly in his looks and his beard too¡­

    No, Ding Xiaoxiao may be secretly in love with Shen Qin. Maybe she wants to take over his cultivation sect and rules the unorthodox fraternity. Then she will kill Shen Qin after he has lost his worth in being alive.

    What is this feeling?

    I will actually envy Shen Qin?!

    Li Yifen saw that Ji Yuan was no longer thrusting wildly into her and he seemed to be lost in his thoughts.

    "Ji Yuan. Are you alright? What are you thinking?"

    Ji Yuan immediately sobered up from his daze and said bitterly, "Nothing. I have just thought of my brothers that are in this ce as well."

    Li Yifen was excited immediately, "Your brothers must be great heroes as well. Why don''t we ask them toe here to lend us their help?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Erm¡­"

    What shall he say to her? That his 3 brothers are hiding in the forest somewhere as they are afraid of being killed by the abyssals? Asking them toe here is like asking them tomit suicide.

    There was something else too; Ji Yuan did not want his 3 brothers to see Ding Xiaoxiao because he felt a little sour in his heart, especially when he saw how beautiful Ding Xiaoxiao really was today.

    I am not going to be a match-maker for the 3 of you.

    He said weakly, "Erm, they have a feud with Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao so it is not wise for them toe."

    "A feud?" Li Yifen asked curiously, "What kind of a feud?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to sigh heavily, "They call her ugly and insulted her. That''s why."

    Li Yifen sighed softly, "To a maiden, that is indeed the highest level of insult."

    Ji Yuan nodded weakly, "Precisely. That is why they can''te or they will be killed by Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao. My 3 brothers are weaker than Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao so we don''t really need them to be here if Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is here."

    Li Yifen was suddenly smiling, "Ji Yuan, do you want to know something really interesting?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Li Yifen smiled, "Don''t you want to know how covet my Supreme Yin Divine Body is?"

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "There is actually a ranking?"

    His knowledge of cultivation was simply a little too weak.

    Li Yifen nodded, "There are the 10 Supreme Yin Bodies actually and it is divided into the Greater and Lesser Supreme Yin Bodies. They are all extremely rare. But if you can obtain a Greater Supreme Yin Body then you don''t need a Lesser Supreme Yin Body. The effects can''t stack as the Lesser Supreme Yin Bodies are considered to be far too inferior to the Greater Supreme Yin Bodies. A Lesser Supreme Body that I know is called the Sacred Maiden Profound Art. This one can be cultivated and need not be natural. It is the only exception but it is quite demanding to cultivate to the 9th level."

    Ji Yuan was startled: Isn''t the Sacred Maiden Profound Art the one that my Qianxue is cultivating?

    But he quickly asked with a soft chuckle, "I bet that your Pure Yin Divine Body must be a Greater Supreme Yin Body then."

    Li Yifenughed softly, "Smart. I give you some credit for it."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially as well.

    Li Yifen continued, "The Greater Supreme Yin Bodies are actually further divided into the 1 Greater Yin Body and the 3 Lesser Yin Bodies. The 3 Lesser Yin Bodies are more or less equal in benefits. If you have taken me when I was a chaste maiden then the benefits will be more for you. In any case, my Pure Yin Body is one of the 3 Lesser Yin Bodies¡­"

    She paused briefly to catch her breath as Ji Yuan was arousing her again, "The other 2 lesser Yin Bodies are the Nine Yin Divine Body and the Extreme Yin Divine Body."

    Ji Yuan curiously asked, "That is interesting. So, what is the name of the ultimate of the ultimate Yin Body?"

    Li Yifen giggled softly, "That will be the Great Heaven Yin Body. But it is impossible to find, appearing only once every few million years."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This is truly rare then."

    Li Yifen nodded, "Indeed it is. It is said that it is also the unique constitution of the Great Beyond Goddess."

 Chapter 1095 A Pleasant Visit

    Chapter 1095 A Pleasant Visit

    It was quitete when Ji Yuan had returned to his personal room; he could not stay toote as the private bed chamber of Li Yifen was actually not so private.

    One must know that Li Yifen is also the Cardinal Harpy and that there were dozens of female Harpies or her personal guards that were stationed in her inner pce of the Cathedral of the Songs.

    Even Li Yifen could not find an excuse to be with Ji Yuan all the time as this may create a rumor; she did not want her daughter Jun Qianfeng or her son Jun Feitian to know about this.

    After Ji Yuan had found the moles of the Abyssal King Gong Magog, he had also undiscovered several unrted moles as well. And Li Yifen had suddenly realized that her movements were actually known to the other Cardinals and her children.

    When Ji Yuan had left Li Yifen''s bed chamber, he tried to act as calmly as possible as he could when he walked past the female harpies that were stationed to protect the inner pce of the Holy Harpy.

    He actually did not get enough of Li Yifen yet and he wished that he could bang her like he was banging Shui Xisi.

    Speaking of Shui Xisi, he was beginning to miss this rted sister of his Jiajia. He felt that banging Shui Xisi was almost the same as he was banging Xia Jiajia.

    Xia Jiajia was like a goddess in his heart that he could only dream of but not bang.

    He could not help but mutter, "Jiajia, you say that you will be my consort once I am done with the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I didn''t forget what you have said. I feel that I am now stronger than you. So don''t me me for forcing myself on you if you dare to say no to me¡­"

    Although he had said that but he would not force himself on her.

    One must know that half the time, Ji Yuan''s words are not to be taken seriously as he is known to say anything that fits the situation at the current time. But doing it is a totally different matter.

    It was like the first time when Ji Yuan had exited his seclusion after bing a half-step saint; he had kicked the rocks to his cave opened and he had muttered that he had almost killed himself with the rocky cave-in.

    It was quite impossible for the rocks to kill him since he had long attained his golden body and his regeneration was also quite insane for a half-step saint.

    Among his friends, he was not known as Ji Yuan the Great Poet but rather as Ji Yuan the Foul Mouthed. It was precisely because he could say almost anything out of the blue that he hade to be known as Ji Yuan the Great Poetter.

    Poetry was never actually his strength.

    Insulting the others were actually his strength.

    It was also his cleverly disguised poem that got him into trouble with the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue. That was also how he had got to meet Xia Jiajia as well who was actually the Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    All his troubles started after Guo Taiming his ''good'' brother had leaked his private poem to the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was soon back to his personal room.

    Just as he was about to lie on his cozy bed, his finger that got the silver skull ring on it was trembling.

    This caused him to be startled and all of a sudden there were two shes of light and Ji Yuan could see the shadowy silhouettes of two maidens appearing.

    To his great delight, he saw that they were none other than Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni!

    Almost immediately, Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni had both flown into his arms!

    "Manni, Little Jie''Er¡­ it is the two of you. Hahaha¡­. I miss the both of you!"

    Little Jie''Er was almost in tears, "Yuan Beluga, why didn''t you look for us? We are so worried for you and that''s why we are here to look for you."

    "That''s right," Tang Manni was mncholy as held onto him tightly.

    Ji Yuan tried tofort them, "You know that it can take me days to reach the two of you. The Great Oracle Gate is like a maze to me. Haha¡­. But I''m alright¡­ but not alright soon."

    "Why do you say that?" Tang Manni asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan solemnly exined to them that he was going to fight against the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and possibly even a True God of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm. And he also told them about what had happened after they had parted.

    Of course, he conveniently deleted all mentions that he had banged Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Li Yifen to the two of them.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were more astonished that Ji Yuan was now a 9th realm cultivator and he had even taken the heavenly tribtion of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to establish his own cultivation concepts andws.

    Tang Manni was astonished, "So you can stay in the middle divine realm now, without having to ascend to the upper divine realm?"

    "Is it even possible in the first ce?" Little Jie''Er curiously looked at him.

    The Ji Yuan that they had known had created miracles after miracles and this caused their adtions for Ji Yuan to grow even more.

    For Ji Yuan, these two maidens were even willing to abandon their noble spiritas titles of the divine consorts to follow him; they just want to follow Ji Yuan to the very end and they had no regrets of leaving their own divine realm. They don''t even care if Ji Yuan has a harem or not. They only know that if they cannot be with him then they will surely regret it forever.

    Titled divine consorts are actually forbidden join a harem as this is their sacredw. In fact, all their nobles are forbidden to join a harem as it is considered to be demeaning to the noble female spiritas even though there are no such restrictions for themoners.

    The Goddess Ai Tina had actually removed thisw for Ji Yuan though before she departed and even make him into a divine lord with a special entitlement of taking a harem but Ji Yuan was on a trial and he could not stay.

    Tang Manni looked curiously at him, "You have received the inheritance of the True Devil God and that''s why you have be a 9th realm cultivator?"

    "Will you be corrupted by the profound darkness?" Little Jie''Er asked anxiously.

    Ji Yuan was not able to tell them that he is the True Devil God incarnate as the current Spiritas Race worships the Great Beyond Goddess and not the True Devil God.

    But even if he tells them that he is the True Devil God, they may not believe him either.

    Ji Yuanughed, "The profound darkness cannot corrupt my pure heart at all. Hahaha¡­"

    "But still, it is not a good idea to ept any inheritances of the True Devil God." Tang Manni could not help asking.

    Then she quietly said, "Look at the Ancient Race in this realm. They are abyssals not unlike us that cultivates the spiritual force energies."

    Actually, Ji Yuan had wanted to tell them that the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God had told him that the current Spiritas Race was actually splintered from the Ancient Race by none other than the True Devil God himself.

    That was probably why the old spiritas race had worshipped the True Devil God. But because the old spiritas race had be depraved in their ways, the current spiritas race had overthrown them and established their own pantheon instead.

    But he had decided to keep quiet about this because it was his words alone and he had heard it from the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan did not want anyone to know that he is the True Devil God as he has some difficulty trying to cope with this new identity.

    Ji Yuan smiled as he looked at Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er tempting figures, "The two of you are so beautiful today. The night is still so young. Why don''t we¡­"

    Actually, the night was quitete now.

    There were coyly flushes from both Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as their beautiful bodies trembled a little in anticipations.

    Ji Yuan wasted no time in pushing the two of them into his bed and he started to strip them naked as he admired their enticing bodies.

    Their expressions were enjoyable as Ji Yuan spread their legs as he admired their picturesque views.

 Chapter 1096 JY and the 7 Picturesque Maidens

    Chapter 1096 JY and the 7 Picturesque Maidens

    The next day, a delighted Ji Yuan had immediately brought Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er to look for Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    The reason why Ji Yuan had not sent them back to the Delphi Pce inside the Oracle Gate was because he thought that it may be unwise to do so; if he dies then they would be trapped inside or may even be enved by the Abyssals who had the means to capture his skull ring.

    So it was actually better if they were outside when the battle starts.

    The female harpies at the Cathedral of the Songs were all astonished that there were two beautiful maidens in Ji Yuan''s personal room.

    When Li Yifen had heard of this news, she was dumbfounded as well as it was almost impossible for anyone to be seening to the Nightfall Heights without anyone knowing and moreover, they had just appeared in her Cathedral of the Songs without anyone knowing as well.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were naturally very happy to see Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as they had been acquainted with one another while they were in the Delphi Pce of Destiny.

    It was a surprise to many that the two maidens were actually friends of Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    But because these 2 maidens were their Savior Ji Yuan''s friends, no one really questioned who they were.

    The 4 maidens were able to mix very well as they soonughed and chatted among themselves.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er naturally knows that the two extremely beautiful maidens were Ji Yuan''s maidens and they could not wait to tter or to make them asfortable as possible. After all, they need some allies in Ji Yuan''s harem in the future.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er could also tell that Ji Yuan likes them too and they as well so they were also friendly toward both Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er naturally did not dare to tell them or anyone else that Ji Yuan had already banged them hard and that they were also Ji Yuan''s maidens now.

    Their jovial chatters soon brought the curiosity of Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng to join them since Ji Yuan was also presented.

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao had also joined in.

    Very soon, all 7 of the maidens were smiling or chatting excitingly.

    Among the 7 maidens, Ding Xiaoxiao was the most reserve but she seemed to be enjoying listening to their jovial exchanges.

    Ji Yuan felt a little left out¡­

    Although he had felt left out but to the onlookers, he was like the most blessed man that could enjoy thepany of 7 most beautiful maidens.

    The scene that Ji Yuan was in, was truly a most beautiful scene as the loveliness of the scene captivated any onlookers.

    If Ji Yuan''s Brother Xiao Muhan was here, he would be sure to be inspired to paint a painting for this picturesque scene.

    It was not before long that their chats became more solemn as Xuan Qiaoqiao told Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni that they were now facing an extermination. So, it may be best that Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni would flee with the weaker cultivators and the little children to somewhere safe.

    But Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni insisted on staying and to fight with Ji Yuan and the Ancient Race.

    Ji Yuan did not want Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni toe to any harm and moreover, this was not their world or trial so he quickly protested. "Manni, Little Jie''Er. It is alright. You should take a backseat. I can do the fighting¡­"

    Tang Manni interrupted him with a wry smile, "What? Are you looking down on a former divine consort?"

    "That''s right!" Little Jie''Er was also giggling.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Not that. But this isn''t a joke. It is an extermination battle¡­"

    Then he quietly said, "I don''t want my maidens to be captured or made into their living cauldrons. Even if I die, I will be a restless spirit if I know that."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were suddenly flushing coyly; it was because Ji Yuan had called them his maidens in front of the other 5 maidens that were presented.

    This was noticed by the other 5 maidens as they cast a look of envy on the two of them.

    Tang Manni shyly looked at Ji Yuan, "We are cultivators and we need to fight constantly. That is the case even before we have met you. You can''t shelter us."

    "I won''t let them capture me!" Little Jie''Er said firmly to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan heaved a soft sigh and gave his silent consent; Tang Manni is right. As cultivators, they have to gain experience the hard way at times. He can''t stop them just like he can''t stop his maidens from entering the trials to find their lucky urrences.

    This was an excellent opportunity for them to pit their profound cultivations against the abyssal cultivators and to find out their deficiencies. If they did not have this opportunity then they won''t be able to improve their profound cultivations.

    Juan Xian''Er smiled wryly to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry Ji Yuan. I''ll look after Maiden Manni and Maiden Jie''Er for you."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also smiling, "Don''t forget about me as well."

    Ji Yuan quickly caught their secret hints and smiled to Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, "Alright then. Then stay closely to Maiden Xian''Er and the Cardinal Priestess. I want the two of you to help me to protect the Cardinal Priestess then."

    The Cardinal Priestess would naturally not be charging into the front line recklessly as she is the figurehead and she would naturally be protected by the Cardinals and several powerful elders. Asking Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er to protect the Cardinal Priestess would mean steering them away from the most dangerous parts of the battle.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er smiled as they looked at Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er, happy that they would all be fighting together.

    Li Yifen disyed a wry smile to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry. I''ll look after your friends as well."

    Jun Qianfeng smiled, "I will ughter anyone that dares toe close to my Cardinal Priestess too."

    She is the Cardinal Confidant and it is her duty to protect the Cardinal Priestess.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked suddenly, "How many cultivators are there in the Nightfall Heights to fight against the 10 000 or more abyssal cultivators for the uing battle?"

    Li Yifen answered weakly, "We have around 3300 cultivators at which around 300 are the senior cultivators that are at the seventh realm."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly, "Mm, only 300? As far as I know, your Ancient Race is weaker than the great abyssal race in cultivation strength. Their top 6th realm abyssal cultivators will be able to contest with a 7th realm cultivator from your side. How did your race survive this long in the abyssal realm?"

    Her frank question caused Li Yifen to look awkward and so were Jun Qianfeng, Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao.

    Li Yifen smiled weakly, "We aren''t this weak in the past. The recent deaths of 3 of our half-step immortal cultivators severely weaken us¡­"

    Then she turned to look at Xuan Qiaoqiao before saying awkwardly, "Well, I''m not going to lie to you. We have been paying tributes to the powerful abyssal kingdoms so that they would leave us alone."

    This was a candid reply.

    Even without the recent deaths of their 3 patriarchs, the Ancient Race at the Nightfall Heights were still a weak power.

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded, "I think that without the natural fortifications of the steep Nightfall Mountains, your Ancient Race will already be wipe out a long time ago."

    This is the truth.

    Most of the abyssals actually could not fly. Those that can are the high levels and they are too few in numbers to seriously threaten the Ancient Race that are holed in the Nightfall Heights.

    That is how the Ancient Race got themselves surrounded by the Nefarious Blood Kingdom as they lost domains after domains over the years until they were left with only the Nightfall Heights.

    The situation was direr than Ji Yuan had expected.

    But he grinned wryly to all the maidens, "Don''t worry about this. I shall lead the 300 senior cultivators to victory against the Abyssal King Gong Magog."

    Author Note:

    1. In the next chapter, the Abyssal King Gong Magoges invading.

 Chapter 1097 The Abyssal King Gong Magogs Army

    Chapter 1097 The Abyssal King Gong Magog''s Army

    2 dayster.

    Ji Yuan did not spend the next 2 days idling at all.

    If anyone thought that Ji Yuan was only banging Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni all this while, they would be disappointed.

    It was because Ji Yuan had been using practicing his true divinity ck sword in the practice chamber so that he could quickly customized to it as his main weapon after he had shattered both his two emperor-step divine swords.

    He still got a half-step emperor sword from among his 9 flying swords but it felt too light in his hands and he was unable to muster his full profound power with it. Moreover, using it would disable the use of his flying swords too as this half-step emperor sword was like the soul of the 9 flying divine swords.

    Although his two emperor swords had shattered and it won''t restore any time soon, but Xiang Li and Anyang were able to wake up from their slumber; it seemed that copting with the 3 Supreme Yin Bodies had actually helped to recuperate their souls faster than Ji Yuan had expected.

    In fact, Xiang Li, Anyang and even Aura had all revived in his inner spiritual sea as well.

    With Aura revived, Ji Yuan''s spirit force energies in his inner spiritual sea was also starting to refill as well.

    In-between his sword practice, he had also banged Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni on the sly, careful not to let them know of his misdeeds.

    Banging them was not the only thing that he did all this while, so the statement above was not correct; Ji Yuan also did many other things beside sword practice.

    He also many to strike a few meaningful conversations with Ding Xiaoxiao as well. To his surprise, she was not entirely unapproachable.

    Ji Yuan also got bolder with his conversations with her because he did not believe that she would ask him for a duel just before the battle with the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    But he had managed to ask her what was buried in his heart when they were alone, "This matter actually doesn''t concern you, right? Since I am your opponent in the Celestial Realm and we will eventually fight with each other, isn''t it better that erm, for me to perish in this battle."

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked quietly at him before she said casually, "The stronger and seasoned you are before our duel, the better. Only then you are worthy for me to draw my sword against you. As for why I am aiding you for this battle, it is better I''d like to see how strong is this abyssal true god."

    Ji Yuan had said, "Well, if you only using your 8th realm cultivation then I am afraid that the abyssal true god will easily have the upper hand. Do you intend to release your 9th realm cultivation then?"

    He was hoping to trick her to using her 9th realm cultivation and to force her to return to the Immortal Deste Realm. In this way, he would avoid fighting her.

    For this scheme to seed, he had the secret intention to provoke the Abyssal King Gong Magog and the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled faintly at him, "Is that you are thinking, also what I am thinking?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to ask, "I don''t understand."

    Ding Xiaoxiao lit a smile, "You want me to release my true cultivation realm so that I can no longer anchor myself to the Celestial Realm, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Nono, of course not! I am just being concern about you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled but she did not show it, "Concern for me? Why should you?"

    Ji Yuan exined awkwardly, "We are fighting on the same side now. Moreover, I also think that you are my most worthy opponent. Naturally I don''t want anything to happen to you as well. Even if you were to be forcefully returned to the Immortal Deste Realm, I''ll still look for you there to finish our duel. Hahaha¡­"

    "Why is that so?" Ding Xiaoxiao asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes as he quickly said, "I feel that you are a most special maiden. We don''t have to be enemies and can even be great confidants for each other. Hahaha¡­"

    There was a slight tremble that was from Ding Xiaoxiao as she was startled by Ji Yuan''s words.

    She quickly turned to leave nonchntly but underneath her nonchnt look she could feel her ears burning hotly as she was secretly moved.

    Special maiden? Great confidants?

    Is that why he had been secretly looking at me for the past several days?

    Actually, Ding Xiaoxiao had never thought that she would be moved by any man but somehow Ji Yuan had moved her.

    She had only left the scene because she was too awkward to look at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was pping himself for making known his intentions too carelessly.

    But somehow today, he did not fear her as much as before as he admired her swaying butts as she walked off.

    Anyang said to Ji Yuan: Stop staring between her legs unless you have a death wish.

    Xiang Li however was giggling: Big Brother, I think she likes you!

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li: You said that to me every time you see a beautiful maiden. Don''t forget she is our opponent in the Celestial Realm.

    Xiang Li pointed out: But you also banged Maiden Yun Chi.

    Ji Yuan said weakly: That''s different. I took advantage of her when she was drowning. How do I know that the Death God Mingwang didn''t know how to swim?

    Anyang corrected Ji Yuan: The one that don''t know how to swim is you. You kicked her when you are panicking under the water.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He pretended to not hear them anymore.

    The armies of the Blood Nefarious Kingdom had indeed reached the Nightfall Heights on a powerful 10th rank gargantuan tortoise that caused the ground to tremble with every step; this was the super mobile fortress of the Blood Nefarious Kingdom.

    On top of this gargantuan tortoise was a mountain and on top was the citadel fortress where the numerous abyssal cultivators from the Blood Nefarious Kingdom could be seen.

    This citadel fortress was on the same height as the buildings on top of Nightfall Heights!

    Dozens ofrge stone drawbridges could be seen in positions on the jagged mountain contours of this gargantuan tortoise profound beast.

    This time round, the invading Nefarious Blood Kingdom had prepared plenty of siege machines to enable their abyssal cultivators to attack the Nightfall Heights directly and to ughter its habitants.

    Leading the armies of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was naturally the Abyssal King Gong Magog and his two royal princes; the Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Gong Tubal.

    And together with them, were the 8 formidable abyssal cultivators that were ranked in the top 10 abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    All 8 of these formidable abyssal cultivators have formidablebat abilities and profound treasures that they were not beneath Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er in their cultivation strength.

    It was not exaggerating to say that these 8 abyssal cultivators were enough to raze the Nightfall Heights even without the appearance of the Abyssal King Gong Magog and his abyssal cultivators.

    On the side of the Nightfall Heights, Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er, Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Holy Harpy Li Yifen, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, Millenium Jun Feitian, the rest of the Cardinals and senior cultivators had all assembled into their battle formations as they awaited the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    The Nightfall Heights had actually fired its profound cannons but after more than 2000 rounds, it waspletely exhausted and they had only killed a few dozen of the weaker abyssal cultivators.

    In the presence of the 10 000 abyssal cultivators and the rich resources of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom, the profound shield of the invading citadel was almost impregnatable.

    Even thebined profound defensive force disyed by so many powerful cultivators had also rendered the powerful profound cannons of the Nightfall Heights quite useless.

    The 10th rank epic gargantuan tortoise that was below the initial exchanges merely yawned sleepily as though someone was throwing sand on it; it did not really care what was going on above it because it was too huge and tough to be hurt.

    Arge throne seat could be seen on the other side and the Abyssal King Gong Magog sat arrogantly on it and he was easily the biggest great abyssal among all the invading abyssal cultivators.

    He looked amused when he saw the number of cultivators from the Nightfall Heights that were opposite him.

    So, he asked with his almighty profound voice, "Is that all the forces that you can muster? I guess that the formidable attack arrays of the Nightfall Heights are only so and so."

    Ji Yuan had stepped forward to answer his taunts, "Hehe! So you are the Abyssal King Gong Magog? I thought that you will look impressive in person but I didn''t think that you will be so ugly. It''s no wonder why you are like an ugly toad that lusts after the beautiful swan."

    Ji Yuan''s words immediately provoked the numerous cultivators!

    How dare a lowly human called their Great Abyssal King unimpressive?

    On the other hand, the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were allughing jovially; they tried to make light of this situation even though they know that many of them will perish in this battle.

 Chapter 1098 The Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho

    Chapter 1098 The Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho

    As Ji Yuan cracked a joke that caused the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights tough jovially, he could not help but looked at the golden breasttes that Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng and many of the maidens were wearing; he was actually drooling at their golden celestium armors that covered only their bosoms and lower waists, parting between their crotches.

    Some of the maidens only had celestium armors that covered their bosoms and lower crotches. Many did not even have waist guards or pauldrons too.

    It seemed to Ji Yuan that golden celestium is equally unaffordable in this realm.

    In the Celestial Realm, golden celestium robes are more often used rather than pieces of celestium armors.

    As this was the final battle and the Ancient Race was prepared, the cultivators had armed themselves with all their profound treasures and celestium armors.

    Even the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao was dded in a splendid breastte of golden celestium and she even donned a golden wing helm.

    Meanwhile, the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho who was one of the top 10 abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom immediately formed wicked spine wings on his back as he charged angrily in the direction of Xuan Qiaoqiao, Li Yifen, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and the other Cardinals.

    Today, he the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho will teach these weak Ancient Old Ones a terrible lesson not to mock at the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    The reason why he had charged in the direction of the Cardinal Priestess was because he could see many beautiful maidens in that direction.

    He was determined to take at least one of the maidens back to his side and then openly ravaged her to teach these stinky Ancient Race a lesson.

    In this way, he could also gain a good lesson from the Abyssal King Gong Magog and the two royal princes. Maybe even the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo would take notice of him and even grant him a boon for his cultivation.

    He was extremely fast and not even the dozens of cultivators that were at the front line could stop him as they spread their wings to intercept him.

    As a matter of fact, even a 6th realm cultivator was killed instantly by the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho as he moved to intercept him.

    For the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho to be one of the top 10 abyssal cultivators was already a great testament to his great strength!

    Ji Yuan was greatly startled as he quickly looked back and he was extremely anxious; it was because Ding Jie''Er, Tang Manni, Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were in the direction of this suddenly speed attack from the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho!

    But before Ji Yuan could react, a beautiful white figure had dashed ahead as well and she was Ding Xiaoxiao.

    In a blink of an eye, the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho was heard screaming loudly as he crashed onto the ground with Ding Xiaoxiaonding on top of him.

    She was smiling beautifully like a blooming white lily as she nailed the throat of the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho in the ground with her scabbard.

    The Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho did not die instantly but he could not move either as he felt an unbelievable weight that was upon him.

    Although he had an upskirt view of the panties that Ding Xiaoxiao was wearing today but this was not his intention; his original intention was to act with his lower body by seizing one or more of the beautiful maidens as he humiliated them in front of their side.

    Ji Yuan and all the others that saw this scene were all stunned with disbelief; it was because it was not easy to aim for the throat especially when it was even in mid-air. The throat was the most guarded point of the cultivator and it was not as easy to aim against. And moreover, the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho was protected by his formidable profound aura and extremely tough abyssal body.

    It was just impossible for a seemingly vulnerable maiden like Ding Xiaoxiao to so casually pinned him to the ground just like that and with only just one simply stroke!

    Ji Yuan saw that Ding Xiaoxiao had disyed her Sword Dao of the Small Universe as he could sense her sword intentions.

    When he saw her move like this, he could not help putting his fingers on his throat; she was too unbelievable fast.

    He had suddenly realized that she had restrained from attacking him during their duel and she did not disy any speed attacks but had waited for him to execute his sword domains.

    It did not matter if she had suppressed her cultivation realm or not; she was extremely fast.

    Actually, Ji Yuan is also an extremely fast sword cultivator if he feels like it and he had always reserved 30% of his actual speed if he felt that he could not ovee his opponent or if there are others watching; he did not want his opponent to know how fast his left hand truly is.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning when he noticed that the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho was having an upskirt view of Ding Xiaoxiao and he had suddenly be moody as he cursed him silently: You bastard. How dare you see the color of her panties¡­

    Anyang interrupted him with a warning: My lord, can you please focus on your other opponents? Namely the Abyssal King Gong Magog, the 2 royal princes and the top abyssal cultivators on the opposite side?

    But Ji Yuan was still muttering to himself: Why has got over metely? The more I look at Maiden Xiaoxiao, the more I think about her? Am I really having a death wishtely?

    Actually, as the two top sword cultivators and also sword deities, Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao could resonate in many ways and even their sword intentions could convey their subtle intentions.

    As Ding Xiaoxiao nailed down the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho on the ground, she was also looking subtly in the direction of Ji Yuan.

    She was smiling because Ji Yuan was looking in her way.

    At the same time, she whispered to the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho, "You may be a peaked 7th realm abyssal cultivator but you are still too weak in my eyes."

    The Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho was stunned into disbelief as no one had ever say that he was weak cultivator but he dared not provoke this vulnerable beautiful maiden in white that was in front of him because he could not see through her cultivation realm and he was also worried that she would severe his neck.

    It was not wrong to say that his very life was hanging by just a thread!

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog, Prince Gong Rosh, Prince Gong Tubal and all the abyssal cultivators were shocked to see this scene unfolding before their very eyes.

    Before the battle had started, they had already lost a powerful abyssal cultivator to a seemingly unknown maiden.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog had naturally remembered this beautiful maiden in white; she was the same alluring maiden and also the same deste cultivator that had threatened to desecrate his naked body for all to see.

    He had not imagined her to be so strong and he was not unable to tell her cultivation realm as she had barely disyed her profound aura.

    But he raised his almighty voice as he thundered, "Maiden, what is your name? How dare you oppose us! If you let him go, I will spare you. In fact, I can even wee you to my side as well."

    He was thinking that this maiden may be sparing the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho to be used as a bargaining chip for her to join his side. After all, she is a deste cultivator and she should have no love for the Ancient Race.

    And she did all these just to attract his attention.

    He was already thinking of screwing this peerless looking maiden into ravage screams of ecstasies when she joins him.

    All of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao swung her scabbard and had severed the head of the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho and had sent his head to fly in the direction of the Abyssal King Gong Magog!

    The severed headnded directly in front of the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    "How dare you!" The Abyssal King Gong Magog thundered with infuriation. "Are my terms not good enough for you?! How dare you kill one of my top abyssal cultivators!"

    It was not only the Abyssal King Gong Magog that was enraged, all the abyssal cultivators were bursting with rage as well and their blood lusts had also increased!

    There is a saying: Never provoke your enemies into anger during a battle or you will have to face their wraths.

    Ding Xiaoxiao did not care for this rule because she was used to provoking the others, including her own Numbers.

    She merely said nonchntly, "Who says I''ll interested to hear your terms? I am not interested to tell a dead man who I am. I am merely draining his blood lest I scattered his foul blood on my side when I sent his head back to you."

    When she had said that, everyone was dumbfounded.

    This included Ji Yuan as he was wondering why Ding Xiaoxiao did not kill the Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho immediately.

    But Ji Yuan interrupted soundly as he thundered his voice to the Abyssal King Gong Magog, "You seem to get it wrongly. Your opponent is me and not her."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog rose from his throne andughed thunderously, "I have met many cultivators but I have never met anyone that is so eager to meet their maker like you do¡­"

    When he had said that, he had suddenly disyed a wicked looking sword from his soul sea and the profound aura of this wicked looking sword was extremely oppressing; it was because it was a half-step True Divinity Sword!

    The oppressing aura from this wicked looking sword could be felt on both sides, striking the cultivators on both sides with awe!

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao was startled, "A true divinity sword? He actually has a true divinity sword?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog began to grin coldly, "This is my Divine Sword the Giga Goliath. It is the same sword that I used to fell the Great Patriarch Great Saint of the Ancient Race a long time ago."

 Chapter 1099 Ji Yuan vs. Abyssal King Gong Magog

    Chapter 1099 Ji Yuan vs. Abyssal King Gong Magog

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog had unleashed his true divinity sword the Giga Goliath and the oppressing aura of his profound might could be felt by all the cultivators on the side of the Nightfall Heights.

    No one had expected that the Abyssal King Gong Magog would have a true divinity sword as it was impossible for 7th realm cultivators to even lift it with their profound strength in the first ce.

    Even Ji Yuan had some difficulties in lifting up his emperor divine swords and he could not lift both at the same time previously; He has his immortal scabbard to thank for to enable him to lift his emperor-step divine swords as though they are saintly divine swords.

    Ji Yuan had only one word to say in his mind: Perhaps Ding Xiaoxiao should challenge this Abyssal King Gong Magog instead of him since he seems to be a better sword cultivator than him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was whispering to Juan Xian''Er, "Sister Xian''Er, do you think that we are able to win?"

    She really had no confident that they could defeat someone with a true divinity sword and that he had also killed their Great Patriarch Sword Saint in the past.

    "I don''t know," Juan Xian''Er replied quietly.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao looked sweetly at Juan Xian''Er as she whispered softly only to her ears, "But no matter what, I like to thank my Sister Xian''Er here for allowing me to know Ji Yuan. This is probably the greatest thing that ever happen in my life."

    Juan Xian''Er chuckled softly, "So long as you are not upset with me."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "Did I? You know that I won''t be upset with you¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er interrupted yfully, "You are so scary when you are upset¡­"

    In the meantime, Ding Xiaoxiao was also pondering to herself: This Abyssal King Gong Magog isn''t that simple for sure. Is there a direct connection between him and that Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo?

    The Abyssal King Diablo Gong Magog thundered almightily as he raised his Giga Goliath, "My great abyssals! Today is the day that we will raze the Nightfall Heights! I, your king will give you the rights to plunder, rape and kill anyone that stood in your path! But the Cardinal Priestess is mine alone! Go forth now and destroy everything¡­"

    "Are you deaf or what?" Ji Yuan thunderous voice had suddenly drowned him like a sudden thunderp.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan had disyed his 9th realm cultivation and he had also disyed Little Yui, his true divinity sword.

    Unlike in the cultivation stories where the MCs like to hide their cultivation realms to gain a surprise attack, Ji Yuan likes to show off his cultivation realm for maximum awe.

    This startled the all the abyssal cultivators!

    Another true divinity sword?

    A 9th realm immortal cultivator?

    A human 9th realm cultivator?!

    Ji Yuan thundered, "I did say that your opponent is me, right? And yet you just ignore me just like this. Do you think that you can get past my sword with your sheer arrogancy?"

    As Ji Yuan swung his sword, there were even two divine halo that sparkle along the edge of his sword, starting the abyssal cultivators.

    This lowly human had actually divine harmonized with his sword perfectly?!

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was also startled by this disy but he merely snorted coldly as his cultivation realm had suddenly increased to the 8th cultivation realm!

    And as his cultivation realm increased, his body size had also doubled as he transformed into a fiend with thick body armors and a pair of wings!

    Many of the abyssal cultivators were grinning now; a fiend abyssal was the peak of their body cultivation and was like a profound beast!

    Even if Ji Yuan was a human 9th realm cultivator but with his small size body, his profound strength could not even bepared to an 8th realm fiend monster! And moreover, the Abyssal King Gong Magog also had a true divinity sword with him!

    The Cardinals and the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were shocked that the Abyssal King Gong Magog had actually reached the bodily transformation of a Great Abyssal Fiend and were panicky!

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was originally 3 times taller than Ji Yuan and 20 times his weight. After doubling in size now, he was now 6 times taller than Ji Yuan and 80 times his weight, bing a colossal monster.

    The true divinity sword Giga Goliath that was in his hand had also doubled in size to fit the Abyssal King Gong Magog current and it was like a giantnce instead of a sword.

    Ji Yuan stared at the ck sword in his hand and said silently: No wonder, you are called Little Yui¡­

    But Ji Yuan continued to say nonchntly, "I didn''t know that you are so strong. Since you are so strong, why bother bring an army with you? Why don''t we settle it through a duel first?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed coldly, "Do you think that you are fit to fight me?"

    Ji Yuan raised his voice further as he thundered, "You have all heard the Abyssal King Gong Magog, am I right? He doesn''t want to take vengeance for the deaths of his sons anymore. He is merely a coward king that hides behind his army. Muhahahahaha¡­."

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog roared with anger, "You are courting your own death!"

    When he had said that, his huge dark shape had already shed in front of Ji Yuan and his powerful oppressing aura swept many of the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights from the ground as he approached.

    Many of the weaker cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were even coughing out blood as the Abyssal King Gong Magog approached at a terrifying speed!

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog said coldly as he raised his Giga Goliath, "You shall be the first one to experience the true power of my true divinity sword!"

    The small size Ji Yuan thought that he was fighting a huge flying profound beast as the Abyssal King Gong Magog approached him.

    He raised his dark sword and immediately shouted, "My Dividing One Sword Profound Art against your true divinity sword then!"

    Ji Yuan immediately gathered all his sword dao of his sword intentions to disy his Dividing One Sword Profound Art as he shouted, "One Sword of the Great Void that divides the Heavens and the Earth; the Dividing Sword of the Great Void. The Dividing One Sword that destroys all cultivation concepts, returning everything to the Great Void."

    This time round, Ji Yuan managed toplete wording thews of his sword concepts.

    A ck spear of powerful ck light burst forth from Ji Yuan''s ck sword.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magogughed coldly as he disyed his Nefarious Blood Cultivation Profound Art, draining almost all her infernal energies from the vicinity as his profound power more than tripled as he charged toward Ji Yuan.

    The ck spear of light ran through the formidable profound force that was disyed by the Abyssal King Gong Magog, the protection of his true divinity sword Giga Goliath and directly ran through the fiendish head of the Abyssal King Gong Magog, exploding his head into smithereens in the next instant!

    Just like this, the rest of the formidable body of the Abyssal King Gong Magog crashed lifelessly onto the ground like a piece ofheavy rock.

    This shocked all the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights and the Nefarious Blood Kingdom!

    The two royal princes, Prince Gong Rosh and Prince Tubal were shocked beyond words!

    With just one stroke, Ji Yuan had killed the almost invincible Abyssal King Gong Magog!

    1. This is not over yet.

 Chapter 1100 The Abyssal King Gong Magog Again

    Chapter 1100 The Abyssal King Gong Magog Again

    Just when everyone thought that the Abyssal King Gong Magog was dead, the heavy mass of the headless body on the ground began to stir again and a new head was being formed from it.

    This shocked Ji Yuan and all the other cultivators who had not yet recovered from the shock of seeing the ''death'' of their Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    The oppressing aura of the Abyssal King Gong Magog had once again revived and it filled the atmosphere breathlessly.

    And he wasughing coldly at Ji Yuan, "Not bad. But I have already anticipated such a move from you. Do you not think that I will be able to kill a Sword Immortal if I am not guarding against you? If you want to kill me, then¡­"

    He tapped his heart which was protected by his thick body armor, "Then you can only kill me by destroying my heart. It is because I am also a half-immortal. However, my body is harder than even most celestial-step divine swords. Together with my profound might, it is impossible for you to prate it."

    Ji Yuan said weakly as his body shuddered as he sought to recover from using the powerful profound attack earlier, "How do you know that I am able to use it only once?"

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog smirked coldly, "Isn''t that obvious. It is called the One Sword Profound Art. Therefore, it can only be once used once. Moreover, it is too powerful and usually such a powerful sword domain will sap all your sword intentions of your willpower and you can only use it only once. Therefore, you have also exhausted your most powerful move against me. You are indeed too young, too simple. I am just curious. What are you human? Are you a half-immortal or an immortal?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You can call me the Great Empyrean¡­ God instead. And I am from the Celestial Realm. Therefore, you can call me an immortal god of the Celestial Realm¡­"

    He had wanted to call himself the Great Empyrean Emperor but in this case, he wanted to be as impressive as possible since this Abyssal King wanted to proim himself as the Great Abyssal Emperor, so he decided to call himself the Great Empyrean God instead."

    As Ji Yuan was exining, he had suddenly disyed the same piercing bolt of ck light again and this time, the ck spear of light was several times bigger andpletely enveloped the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    In that same outburst, Ji Yuan''s sword aura and ultra sword spirit had also burst forth almighty as he vanquished the oppressing aura of the Abyssal King Gong Magog.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog quickly sent forth a wall of red light that was seething with his powerful profound power but in just 3 blinks of an eye, Ji Yuan''s ck spear of light shattered his powerful red wall of light andpletely extinguished the Abyssal King Gong Magog!

    This created a second shock for all the cultivators that were presented!

    Just like this, the Abyssal King Gong Magog was dead a second time and this time, it was even moreplete.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he swung his ck sword, "Who told you that the sword domain of my true divinity sword can only be used once?"

    When Ji Yuan had disyed his Dividing One Sword Profound Art the very first time, he had not used all his profound strength. Just as he thought, this Abyssal King Gong Magog may be thinking that he could only use the Dividing One Sword Profound Art only once.

    The Abyssal King Gong Magog was not wrong to conclude this as the more outrageous a sword domain is, it is extremely difficult to muster it again as the mental energies to do so will exhaust the cultivator quitepletely.

    But Ji Yuan is a cultivator that cultivates his mental strength more than the others and moreover, the Dividing One Sword Profound Art is not exactly a true sword domain but also the sanctorum profound art of his ck sword that requires life force energies more than profound energies to be executed.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly shed to his side as she whispered to him, "Are you able to use your Dividing One Sword Profound Art one more time?"

    Ji Yuan was startled when Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly appeared next to him as his roving eyes began to look at her beautiful bosoms and below the outskirt of her short robe as he tried to figure out what the bastardly Abyssal Lord Shem Ichicho had seen underneath¡­

    But he found himself answering her, "Yes, I can use it one more time¡­"

    He was quite startled that he had identally told her his trump card.

    Ding Xiaoxiao nodded as she said nonchntly to him, "Then we are going to need this because¡­"

    All of a sudden the red heavens began to stir furiously and dark vortexes began to appear for hundreds of miles!

    The strong winds had suddenly be extremely fierce and dozens of tornados that reached up to the heavens could be seen raging immediately!

    A gigantic silhouette could be seen forming in the dark red heavens above; it was the shape of a monstrous great fiend with wicked wings and a long spikey tail.

    Almost all the cultivators below were trembling, whether if it was the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights or the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    It was because today the True Abyssal God called Gong Diablo was now descending and soon, Diablo will walk the earth and all the cultivators will tremble under his might.

    Even 9th realm abyssals immortal will tremble in the face of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo!

    But Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were the only ones that showed no fear.

    This caused Ding Xiaoxiao to be quite surprised as she stolen a nce at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was grinning as though he did not know he was about to die.

    Actually, before Ji Yuan knows that he is the True Devil God, he had actually never known fear and it was never in his dictionary.

    Although he did not know or think too much into it but fear was never installed in his heart when he was dueling for his life, fighting a powerful profound beast in the Five Heavens Peaks or when he was in a difficult trial that could cost him his life.

    Or even for his sword saint trial.

    He waspletely at ease and he did not even know the meaning of fear, sometimes to the frustrations of hispanions or brother cultivators that could not stand his adventurous undertaking.

    This was actually due to him being the incarnate of the True Devil God.

    The only fear that Ji Yuan was actually afraid of, was of course being green by anyone. He was actually more angry than being fearful.

    1. Actually, I do enjoy more ppl posting theirments or thoughts. It doesn''t matter if it is right or wrong. Although some of the story arcs are scripted ahead but if it is possible, it may still be changed. For example, I got more readers telling me that they want the 5 Divine Consorts to be together with Ji Yuan. The original idea was just to include Tang Manni and Xu Yifei. Later I add in Little Jie''Er. But it is toote to include all 5 divine consorts. The reason why is, I''d like to write more about them though if that is the case. I''ve also got fans telling me not to forget the subus queen too xD. Wish, you''ve told me much earlier.

    2. Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan romance is supposed to be slow unlike the other lead heroines; they start off respecting each other and slowly, you know. It is actually not apparent at the start as Ding Xiaoxiao starts off as a great enemy that is after Ji Yuan for the past 500 chapters:X

    I think some of you may want to see a development between JY and DXX but it has to wait until they are back to the Celestial Realm as DXX is honor bounded to aid the Great Demon God.

 Chapter 1101 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (1)

    Chapter 1101 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (1)

    The looming huge size of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo descended slowly from the stormy red heavens and his oppressing aura caused many of the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights to tremble uncontrobly and many were even paralyzed on the spot.

    Today, a True God descended from the heavens and his divine state of divinity was not something that any of the cultivators could evene close.

    Most of the True Gods of the Immortal Realms have a peaked 9th realm cultivation because they are there since the very beginning and they are birthed from the great dao of their immortal realms.

    None of them have a need to cultivate and they are the true immortals of their immortal realm, with an unlimited lifespan and no heavenly tribtions.

    To say that they are half-step True Divinities too, are also not an exaggeration.

    Many of the True Gods are extremely ancient and they looked down on the lesser and inferior immortals in their immortal realms; it is because it is difficult for any immortals to advance in their cultivation realm at the 8th and 9th realm cultivation.

    Most ascended cultivators are actually struck at the lower end of the 8th cultivation realm because immortal cultivations are totally different from the normal cultivations.

    When the Great God Pangu established the current cultivation realms for the cultivators, it was actually a simplification system; there were actually 27 cultivation realms in total instead of the 9 known cultivation realms.

    The 10th cultivation realm was naturally excluded as it is the True Divinity cultivation realm.

    The mortal human cultivators in the lower realm actually have to follow seven celestial divinities in order to ascend to the Celestial Realm; they are the Genesis, Enlighten, Emotion, Transverse, Seventh Sense, Crisis and Ascend in order to be a golden celestial of the 5th cultivation realm in the Celestial Realm.

    The immortals of the Immortal Realm actually use the Star Positionings of the Heavens to indicate their cultivation realms advancement and they also have lofty titles because they are not expecting anyone to overtake them in their cultivation realms.

    The six immortal cultivation realms are the Minor Heavens Position, the Major Heavens Position, the Lesser Significant Heavens Position, the Greater Significant Heavens Position, the Minor Great Heaven Position and the Major Great Heavens Position. And of course, the True Gods ranked above the Six Heavenly Star Position.

    The Six Heavenly Star Positions are actually the limit in which a cultivator can actually cultivate.

    The Immortal Nine Heavens divided the female immortals into Fairies, Sagess, Goddess and Great Goddess while the male immortals are divided into Lords, Sages, Gods and Great God. Thest 2 titles are preserved exclusively for thest Heavenly Star Positions.

    Most ascended immortals are not even titled immortals.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo''s divine sense was staring at everyone and all the cultivators were seemingly naked in front of it.

    In an instant, he had also read Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao cultivation realms.

    He echoed gloomily, "I don''t understand why there are two 9th realm cultivators in this ce. One is at the Minor Great Heavens (Ji Yuan) and the other is at the Major Great Heavens (Ding Xiaoxiao) ¡­"

    "And the two of you both possess a true divinity sword¡­ this is so interesting¡­"

    "One is celestial cultivator from the Celestial Realm and the other one is an immortal deste cultivator from the Immortal Deste Realm¡­"

    Ji Yuan could feel the divine sense of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo that was locked upon him and he was struggling to stand firm due to the great oppressing pressure that had suddenly descended upon the ce.

    This Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo is not only a True God but a half-step Divinity as well!

    It was no wonder why Ding Xiaoxiao had appeared before him and asked him if he could still disy his Dividing One Sword Profound Art one more time.

    Ji Yuan finally understood the reason why and realized the disparity between the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and him.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo echoed slowly, "I don''t understand¡­ how a celestial cultivator is able to cultivate to be a half-step immortal of the 9th cultivation realm¡­ the Heavenly Dao will not allow such anomaly to exist¡­"

    He did not know that Ji Yuan had already been tempered by the 81 immortal purple lightning and he had survived through it. This earned Ji Yuan the acknowledgement of the Heavenly Dao to be a 9th realm high immortal.

    Ji Yuan''s own body is also extremely resilient to damage as he is the True Devil God incarnate and the True Devil God is also a True God.

    Therefore, even if he was not tempered by the 81 immortal purple lightning, he would sooner orter still be able to find ways to advance himself to the lofty 9th realm and reimed his old cultivation; it is just a matter of time for Ji Yuan even if he is azy cultivator.

    "Also¡­ I don''t understand how you are able to find the true divinity sword of the True Devil God and still be able to use it¡­"

    Ji Yuan was cursing silently: Damn, is he reading me?!

    When the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo said this, many of the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were startled.

    The true divinity sword of the True Devil God?!

    Actually, it was a taboo to mention the True Devil God even in the Nightfall Heights because the True Devil God was considered to be a traitor to the abyssal races for aiding the Chaos Race.

    That was the reason why the Sanctuary of the Forbidden was only allowed and known by the Cardinals of the Ancient Race because they were actually hiding a shrine to the True Devil God in that ce.

    "But no matter. Today, you shall all die¡­ because you dare to destroy my vessel body¡­"

    All of a sudden, the true divinity sword Giga Goliath was suddenly flying to the wicked grips of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo!

    Ding Xiaoxiao whispered to Ji Yuan, "Just as I''ve thought. The true master of this true divinity sword isn''t the Abyssal King Gong Magog or else it would have flown off immediately when he is dead."

    Ji Yuan nodded but he also whispered back, "What does he mean by vessel body?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered quietly, "They must have formed a kind of a blood pact. If I am not wrong¡­"

    She turned to look at Xuan Qiaoqiao who was behind, "The Abyssal King Gong Magog is nothing but a pathetic ve of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo. The real person that is trying to obtain her Nine Yin Divine Body is actually the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo."

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his eyes as he thought: All these troubles just to obtain 1 Supreme Yin Body? I have already banged with 3¡­

 Chapter 1102 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (2)

    Chapter 1102 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (2)

    The oppressing pressure that was exerted on all the cultivators below, including the cultivators from the Blood Nefarious Kingdom was so suffocating that many cultivators were already on their kneels and were coughing blood!

    This oppressing pressure was beyond the 9th cultivation realm and extremely pressurizing.

    The True Gods or Cultivation Gods of their Immortal realms typically viewed all the others are puny ants and vermin that are of little consequences to their petty wars and schemes.

    Ji Yuan marveled at the sight and the powerful immortal profound aura of the descending Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    He estimated with the simple logic of E = MC SQRT that even with the profound power of his Dividing One Sword Profound Art, the profound power of his attack would be diminished by at least 1/10 which was good enough to help scratch the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Ji Yuan had never fought a True God before, only some not so powerful immortals that imed to be powerful immortals to bolster their egos.

    Even the powerful Immortal Divine Lord Kong Rong that Ji Yuan had fought and won narrowly not long ago in the Spirit Divine Realm was just an insignificant miner in the Immortal Greater Spirit Realm.

    The oppressing profound voice of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo continued to thunder unhurriedly above, "Those that defy me, die. This human half-immortal, you dare to possess the true divinity sword of the True Devil God, die! All that remains at the Nightfall Heights die! Feel my wrath that is about to descend upon you¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao''s voice could be heard in Ji Yuan''s ears: This is my Divine Whisper. The others won''t be able to hear you¡­

    Ji Yuan was startled as he looked at Ding Xiaoxiao but she was still casually looking up at the stormy red heavens and at the gigantic silhouette that was descending upon all of them and filling most of the cultivators with great terror and fear.

    The abyssal cultivators were also experiencing great terror and fear but they were also filled with great reverence for their True God that was fighting on their side.

    Ding Xiaoxiao divine whispered to Ji Yuan, "This may be a battle between 3 true divinity swords as well¡­ but we ought to focus on depleting his profound might because as long as we can hold on until he depleted 2/3 of his cultivation strength, he can no longer anchor himself to this world and we can win this battle. This is themon weakness of all the immortals. That is, if we survive of course."

    Ji Yuan was startled.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was actually telling him the weakness of the immortals.

    But it was easily said than done.

    Cultivation strength and profound strength are actually different things.

    Profound strength is used to disy the profound arts while cultivation strength is the overall strength of recovery and regeneration. Cultivation strength can also affect if the cultivator can use a high level profound art and is also tied to the cultivation realm.

    In short, Ji Yuan has to hurt this Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and made him cough out his most powerful immortal profound arts in order to weaken his cultivation strength.

    Well, he is going to strike first and make him pay first¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to divine whisper to him, "Wait Ji Yuan! Don''t be too hasty first. This is only his projected image.Don''t waste your profound strength so hastily. The real Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo is actually teleporting here soon from another location, presumably the royal city of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom."

    Ji Yuan took a weak look at Ding Xiaoxiao: How the heck does she knows what I am thinking? Is she the curly worm in my stomach?

    But as he took a sheepish look at Ding Xiaoxiao, he also wandered his eyes to look at her side of her bosoms that showed her exposed milk white curves, her slim waist, the curves of her raised butts and her white thighs that exposed from the the short thong that was between her legs¡­

    Anyang said to Xiang Li: I am sure our lord is having a death wish by showing interest in his enemy.

    But Xiang Li giggled instead: Big Brother wants to bang Ding Xiaoxiao for sure! Right, Big Brother?

    Ji Yuan hastily exined: What are you thinking Xiang Li? I am only thinking of humiliating my opponent and isn''t thinking of that.

    Anyang asked coldly: And how do you think of humiliating your opponent then?

    Ji Yuan immediately pretended not to hear Anyang and instead he pretended to be distracted and he was shouting aloud to the stormy red heaves above to interrupt the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo who was thundering ominously, "Therefore you shall all die in this ce today¡­"

    Ji Yuan raised his profound voice to interrupt with a loud chuckle, "I am afraid that you are just a so and so True God and you don''t look that strong. Hahaha¡­"

    Everyone, including Ding Xiaoxiao were all quite startled by Ji Yuan and it seemed to them that he had a death wish!

    The thunderous roar of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo exploded with furious rage, "How dare you address me in this manner! When I have descended, the first one that will die shall be you instead! And I will make sure that you shall die a most painful and terrible of all deaths as I rip you piece by piece! You will beg me to let you die but I shall keep you alive and you shall see your bloody organs with your very own eyes!"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Have you ever wondered why I dare to be so insolent in front of you? It isn''t me that you should fear but you should at the very least fear my prot¨¦g¨¦ master instead, am I right?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diabloughed aloud and his terrible voice shocked the Nightfall Heights, "Your prot¨¦g¨¦ master?! Why should I fear your nameless prot¨¦g¨¦ master?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to be startled, "What do you mean that you don''t fear my prot¨¦g¨¦ master the Old Reverend Beiyuan? You mean you don''t know Old Reverend Beiyuan at all?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo thundered, "The Old Reverend Beiyuan that I know is surely not the Old Reverend Beiyuan that you know!"

    There was a glimmer of hope in Ji Yuan''s eyes as heughed jovially, "Weird. That Old Reverend Beiyuan of mine happened to be a True Divinity old freak. I wonder who the other Old Reverend Beiyuan that you are talking about?"

    "You! You¡­ really know Old Reverend Beiyuan?! And he is your prot¨¦g¨¦ master?!" The thunderous voice of the Immortal Gong Diablo seemed to be lowered down considerably and filled with hesitations.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "So, you really do know my prot¨¦g¨¦ master. Hahaha¡­ if you kill me, then he will kill you. And you know that the prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress of my prot¨¦g¨¦ master is the Great Beyond Goddess, am I right? Try killing me and you will earn their wrath. Hahaha¡­."

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned to stare at Ji Yuan as she quickly sent him a divine whisper, "Your prot¨¦g¨¦ master is a True Divinity God?"

 Chapter 1103 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (3)

    Chapter 1103 The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo (3)

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo thundered to Ji Yuan, "Little human, do you have any proof that you are a prot¨¦g¨¦ of Old Reverend Beiyuan?"

    He had conveniently addressed Ji Yuan as a little human instead of lowly human now; the change was extremely subtle.

    Unknown to anyone, there was actually a secret history between the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    A long time ago, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had just reached the half-step True Divinity Realm and he was allowed to enter the lower realms of the Great Beyond to obtain a profound treasure.

    The Great Beyond Realm is a realm that are full of profound treasures; how could he be satisfied with just obtaining just one profound treasure?

    So he hatched a bad idea to enter the upper realm of the Great Beyond where the Great Beyond Goddess was.

    Perhaps, he could even force the Great Beyond Goddess to copte with him. After all, he had such a strong and terrifying body.

    There, he had met a little human old man and he called himself the Old Reverend Beiyuan and he was joviallyughing when he saw him.

    Actually Old Reverend Beiyuan was not an old man at all but he had a bushy beard that made him look old in the eyes of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    As a half-step true divinity, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo naturally did not regard any little human too highly. After all, cultivation realm alone is not an indication of strength.

    Size does matter.

    And he has a really big size.

    Both of them are 10th realm immortal gods and it is said that the peak of cultivation is just the 10th cultivation realm that is only attainable by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo has the monstrous body and he isn''t afraid of a puny human old man.

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan saw him, he was jovialughing. "Hohohoho. My great mistress says that since you have obtained the true divinity sword Giga Goliath, you should now return to where you havee from. From now onward, this Giga Goliath will be your fate weapon and if you use it well, you may even be a True Divinity in the future."

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo hadughed back, "I am already a half-step True Divinity. It is only a matter of time before I can be a True Divinity, with or without the profound treasures of the Great Beyond!"

    Old Reverend Beiyuan shook his head, "Then why are you still greedy for more profound treasures of the Great Beyond? In time toe, these profound treasures will descend to the lower realms but you are not allowed to pick them now."

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diabloughed thunderously, "A lowly human that is teaching a True God of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm what to do? Why don''t I kill you and take away your cultivation core for my own cultivation instead¡­"

    Just as he had muttered out those words, Old Reverend Beiyuan was alreadyughing jovially as he interrupted him. "Hohoho, I am really afraid that you will really be so docile and just leave like this and then I have to excuses to y with you¡­"

    To the great horror of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, a golden serpentine shape of unimaginable proportion had suddenly appeared from behind Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    It was a 13th rank Cosmos Golden Dragon of unimaginable power that had concealed itself right in front of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and not even his immortal divine sense was able to pick off its profound animus.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was shocked because he had thought that the most powerful of all the profound beasts were only at the 12th rank and these profound beasts were also the True Gods of their immortal realms.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan had suddenly shot beams of profound light that pierced the formidable immortal body of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo as though he was cutting paper while saying, "Rx my old friend. This puny lizard is mine to y with."

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was shocked that this Old Reverend Beiyuan had actually called him a puny lizard?!

    The enraged Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo tried to fight back with all his profound power but he literally got trashed by this Old Reverend Beiyuan and treated like a toy in front of him.

    His torturested for several hours as he kept regenerating his wounds and getting wounded again and again by this Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    When Old Reverend Beiyuan was done with him, he wasughing jovially. "Hohohoho. A half-step True Divinity is still not a True Divinity. There are plenty of fierce monstrosities in the universe that are at the True Divinity level. Do you know why I did not destroy your cultivation core? It is because this is just a small punishment for you. You should go back and be a True God of your abyssal race instead. Do you understand me?"

    How could the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo dare to disagree with him?

    In fact, he was begging for his mercies and kowtowing in front of this Old Reverend Beiyuan who was just too strong.

    He did not even catch a single glimpse of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Old Reverend Beiyuanughed jovially, "Hohohoho, there won''t be a next time. If I catch you again, you know what I mean?"

    "That''s enough already, old man." A beautiful and graceful maiden in veil had suddenly appeared.

    Or rather, she had been there all along, watching.

    The Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo immediately kowtowed with great panic, "Great Beyond Goddess¡­"

    "I am not the Great Beyond Goddess." As she said that, a terrifying profound light struck the Abyssal Immortal Gong Diablo on his face as though he had just received a tight p!

    There were several invisibleughing sounds that had suddenlye from the surrounding vicinity.

    It was only then that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had suddenly realized that he was actually being surrounded by several unknown powerful beings that were all watching his humiliations.

    These powerful immortal cultivators called themselves the God Race.

    Old Reverend Beiyuan said to him, "The rules of the Great Beyond is not to be taken lightly, especially by an insignificant half-step True Divinity like you. Go back to your immortal world."

    Then he emphasized, "As long as you are in your immortal realm, I won''t touch you again. Not upper or lower, is that very clear?"

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo quickly and humbly cried out, "I will go back to my immortal world and stay there forever."

    Back to the present.

    "Proof?"

    Ji Yuan then patted his chest and grinned, "If I ever lie to you that Old Reverend Beiyuan is my prot¨¦g¨¦ master then may my cultivation core be shattered and that I am unable to cultivate. I swear this oath by the name of my great prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress the Great Beyond Goddess!"

    All of a sudden, the silhouette of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had suddenly disappeared from the stormy red heavens and even the tornedos had suddenly ceased!

    The glooming oppressive pressure that was weighed upon everyone else was suddenly gone as well!

    The profound voice of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo echoed and lingered from above the red heavens, "Lowly human. Count yourself lucky that I am a great friend of your prot¨¦g¨¦ master that I am showing you some face. Also, I just remembered that I have some business to do in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm and I won''t be staying in this realm anymore. As for the blood feud between the Nightfall Heights and my Nefarious Blood Kingdom, you can all settle it yourself¡­"

    Everyone, including Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were stunned that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was returning to the immortal realm just like this.

    Ji Yuan was the most astonished as he was just trying to bluff his way through and he did not expect that his temporary ''prot¨¦g¨¦ master'' is a great friend of this Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Prince Gong Rosh looked a little panicky and lost but he quickly shouted, "What are you all waiting for? Attack and kill all the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights!"

    Then heughed jovially, "I am the new Great Abyssal King now!"

 Chapter 1104 The Return of Gong Diablo

    Chapter 1104 The Return of Gong Diablo

    As soon as Prince Gong Rosh had dered himself to be the new Abyssal King, he was suddenly struck on the back by a heavy two-handed sword.

    Prince Gong Tubal was the one that had suddenly struck him and he was grinning coldly, "I should be the Great Abyssal King instead. No, I should be the new Great Abyssal Emperor instead. Hahahaha¡­"

    And then he had swung his two-handed sword with a burst of his profound might and pierced the back of the Prince Gong Rosh, sending him to scream with great pain as he wriggled on the ground!

    This shocked all the abyssal cultivators¡­

    Even the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were also shocked at this sudden change of event.

    Prince Gong Tubal raised his voice to shout mightily, "Now I am the only heir to the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and I am also the strongest remaining. Therefore, I am your new Great Abyssal King now. I don''t care if you are once loyal to my brother or not. But from now onward, if you are loyal to me, all debts shall be forgiven¡­"

    Then he raised his two-handed sword to point in the direction of the cultivators of the Nightfall Heights, "Kill them all! Take their maidens for yourself! I want the Cardinal Priestess, the Cardinal Harpy and the Cardinal Confidant for myself. Now go and take everything for yourself!"

    Immediately the abyssal cultivators were aroused as they could see that there were many beautiful maidens among the cultivators from the Ancient Race.

    So, in swarms, all the abyssal cultivators numbering more than 10 000 were all rushing forward to attack the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights now and this included the remaining 7 top abyssal cultivators of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom!

    The cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were smaller in size as their Cardinals ordered them into formations to meet the fierce charge of the abyssal cultivators.

    It was actually not just the numerical size that was in disparity; most of the abyssal cultivators were also 2-3 times bigger and taller than the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights.

    The abyssal cultivators actually consisted of many different types of abyssal races so their actual sizes and shapes actually varies.

    But for the Ancient Race, their cultivators looked more human with only their pointed ears and the wings on their back to show the difference.

    Now all these happened almost at the same time when the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had suddenly announced his intentions to depart to his immortal realm.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to draw his sword at the charging abyssal cultivators that were storming them like a stampede, Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly raised her scabbard.

    And a profound beam of light had suddenly shot up in the direction where the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was disappearing.

    She said coolly, "Not so fast. Our fight is not finished yet."

    This beam of startling light severed the rift that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was opening to his immortal realm and caused his projected imagery to once again appear in the stormy red heavens above.

    All of a sudden, the furious winds had picked up speed and the oppressing winds had also returned to the vicinity!

    All the cultivators that were already fighting were startled that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was returning!

    Ji Yuan was the most stunned as he stared at Ding Xiaoxiao as he said angrily, "What the heck are you doing? Are you turning the odds against us?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned and asked Ji Yuan nonchntly, "Are you angry with me?"

    Ji Yuan said exasperatingly, "Of course I am! After all the trouble that I tricked him into leaving, you are bringing him back? Do you know that we don''t stand a chance against that thing?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coolly to him, "We don''t have to kill him in order to win. As long as he expended 2/3 of his cultivation strength in the battle. So with the two of usbined, we do stand a chance."

    "Have you ever considered what if we may lose?" Ji Yuan asked her.

    Ding Xiaoxiao returned a faint smile, "Of course I did. If we do our best, we have a 50-50 chance of winning."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "That is quite a big chance that we may lose for a 50-50."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "I have actually marked it up to give us a better odd."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I think that you are screwing us this time¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted him softly, "What is the joy of oveing an opponent that is already destined to lose?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I kinda enjoy doing that¡­

    All of a sudden the oppressing aura of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had increased by several folds again and it was only because the physical form of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had finally materialized to merge with his projected imagery.

    His thunderous and enraging loud voice boomed, "I am willing to be magnanimous and to spare you my personal wrath! And yet, you want to pick a fight with a True God! Old Reverend Beiyuan, I have already given you face enough but your disciple dares to provoke me¡­."

    Ji Yuan immediately looked at Ding Xiaoxiao with a sheepish look and he was muttering below, "It isn''t me, you know. It is her¡­"

    A wall of ck light had suddenly erupted on the ground, crashing like a meteor and the entire Nightfall Heights were suddenly shaking violently!

    Prince Gong Tubal panicky shouted as the ck wall of light fell upon him, "Wait!!!!!"

    In the next instant, both the life force of the Prince Gong Tubal and the grievous injured Prince Gong Rosh were both extinguished at the same time.

    Many nearby cultivators were killed when the ground below had suddenly exploded and many more were swept away by the powerful shockwaves!

    A formidable oppressing aura had suddenly emerged from this ck wall of light and a monstrous ck fiend with wicked wings and talons were seen emerging from the mushrooming debris.

    This ck fiend was indeed the powerful Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and on its forehead was the Giga Goliath!

    Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao had both disyed their sword auras to prevent themselves being swept and affected by the profound shockwaves when the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo hadnded.

    But many of the other cultivators were not so fortunate as they suffered great injuries.

    Ding Xiaoxiao also raised her scabbard in front of her to protect herself from the rippling shock shockwaves as she smiled to Ji Yuan, "Are you excited for this fight?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "When this is over, I will bang you hard."

    There was a coyly flush that had subtly appeared on Ding Xiaoxiao''s alluring and delicate face when she had heard Ji Yuan.

 Chapter 1105 Ding Xiaoxiaoâ€™s True Divinity Sword

    Chapter 1105 Ding Xiaoxiao¡¯s True Divinity Sword

    The glooming dark monstrous shape of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was moving with extreme speed toward Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao now.

    As it moved, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was roaring thunderously. "Attack! Kill them all! Destroy them all!"

    The powerfulmands of their True God aroused the abyssal cultivators once again as they revived their fighting spirits as they charged madly at the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights.

    Heavy fighting soon erupted from all over the Nightfall Heights as profound arts and infernal weapons of all kinds shed throughout the battle field.

    Many of the abyssal cultivators were also transforming into their fiercer abyssal forms as they were ovee by blood lusts.

    In front of Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was a towering dark figure; he looked more like a two-legged dragon and there were rows ofrge spines on his back as his ten talons were shing like ten long spears.

    In the middle of his forehead was his true divinity sword the Giga Goliath which radiated a wall of immerse profound power.

    Ever since the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had merged with his true divinity sword, he had gained immerse power and was now counted as one of the greater gods in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm.

    He was no longer a weak lesser true god that had once been shamed by Old Reverend Beiyuan. And today, he shall pay the disciple of this Old Reverend Beiyuan pay with his life!

    I didn''t provoke you, Old Reverend Beiyuan!

    It is your disciple that has provoked me in my lower realm!

    So don''t me me for killing your disciple!

    But at the same time, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was secretly checking the vicinity with his formidable divine sense as he thought: I am so much stronger and powerful than in the past now. I should be able to sense his invisible presence now, right?

    Ji Yuan had disyed hundreds of his profound swords as he disyed his Thousand Sacred Swords and used his sword domain the Million Swords Field to consolidate all his profound swords into one piercing attack that was called the Harker of the Million Swords.

    This was once his most powerful sword profound art but got recently reced by the Dividing One Sword Profound Art.

    As for Ding Xiaoxiao, there was a faint dark aura that was surrounding her and the vicinity was enveloped by her sword domain as hundreds of profound swords were also seen.

    Ji Yuan had of course recognized her sword domain as her Sword Dao of the Universe Border; every one of her profound swords had the same impact as her Sword Dao of the Small Universe.

    Both of them had used their ultra sword spirits and sword auras; they literally disyed their very best for this fight with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Ji Yuan was unable to muster his Deste Cherubim to add further profound power to his attack as his inner spiritual sea had not restored to the point where he could use his spirit animus.

    The only difference between Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao, was that Ding Xiaoxiao''s was at the peak of the 8th cultivation realm while Ji Yuan was at the 9th upper cultivation realm.

    All of a sudden, Ding Xiaoxiao''s scabbard had burst opened like a metallic case and this scabbard began to transform into a long hilt that had two metallic silver wings by its side.

    And a long beaming white sword of extreme profound power could suddenly be seen and this divine sword was Ding Xiaoxiao''s true divinity sword!

    It was also a full-step true divinity sword and not a half-step true divinity like the Giga Goliath.

    Her divine blue sword was actually twice as long as Ji Yuan''s long ck sword, though one third of her sword was encased by the hilt that was half the length of Ji Yuan''s sword.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly realized that her scabbard was actually part of her true divinity sword and what he saw was the scabbard, was in fact the silver hilt of her true divinity sword!

    Ding Xiaoxiao disyed the profound power of her true divinity sword and Ji Yuan could see that there were two bright halos on her true divinity sword which indicated that she has already perfectly harmonized with her sword.

    She turned to smile casually at Ji Yuan, "The name of my divine sword is the Divine Ptine. What is the name of your divine sword?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he looked unimpressed at his ck divine sword that was in his hand as hepared the length of their divine swords. Then he muttered an equally unimpressive name, "Little Yui."

    And Xiang Li.

    Also, Anyang as well¡­

    Xiang Li was gasping: Look Big Brother! Her true divine sword looks quite impressive!

    Anyang was also agreeing: I am forced to agree with that too.

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly: Rubbish! My Little Yui is the most impressive true divinity sword out of the 3 true divinity swords here. Also, her sword is too long and surely, she will be clumsily wielding her long divine sword.

    Anyang pointed out: She doesn''t seem to be wielding her divine sword clumsily¡­

    Ji Yuan had already pretended not to hear and returned his focus to the battle that was at hand.

    "Ji Yuan!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao had already signaled Ji Yuan to attack before the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo could ovee them with his brute power.

    Immediately Ding Xiaoxiao hadunched hundreds of her profound swords to fly toward the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Ji Yuan did the same as he disyed his Harker of the Million Swords toward the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo as well.

    Hundreds of profound swords flew toward the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo even as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was charging toward them.

    Almost all their profound swords exploded before the formidable profound aura of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo seemingly hitting a barrier.

    A few of Ding Xiaoxiao''s profound swords managed to bypass the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo formidable profound aura and hit him but it was still in futility as all her profound swords that hit got dissipated into nothingness while doing no damage at all.

    Not even a scratch.

    As for Ji Yuan his profound swords could not even bypass the formidable profound aura of the Immortal Abyssal Diablo.

    He soon realized that even with his 9th upper realm cultivation profound strength, he was still inferior to Ding Xiaoxiao in terms of her sword domain''s profound power.

    He quickly shouted, "Little Yui! Lend me your sanctorum power!"

    Little Yui exploded into a ck light that enveloped his Harker of the Million Swords and this time, he had managed to bypass the formidable profound aura and scratched the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    His scratch could barely slow down the advancing Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo at all and his Harker of the Million Swords were soon pushed back by the red light of the Giga Goliath.

    Even the scratch that he had inflicted was already fully regenerated.

    Alread, more than half of their profound swords had been used up!

    Ding Xiaoxiao had broken into a cold sweat and Ji Yuan could see that she was disying all her profound power into her Sword Dao of the Universe Border.

    Ji Yuan had actually wanted to ask her if she could consider releasing her profound aura to the 9th cultivation realm when Ding Xiaoxiao shouted to him amidst the furious force of the unnatural winds, "We need to strike at a single point together. Even though our profound swords may sh but this may be our only chance before our sword domain is exhausted."

    "Agreed. I was about to propose that too," Ji Yuan said awkwardly.

    He was actually about to ask her whether she could consider releasing her profound aura to the 9th realm. If she did so, then she would be sent back to her own immortal world regardless of the oue of this fight.

    Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao had both directed their profound swords together into a straight line of flying profound swords that was directly at the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo; one line of the profound swords was ck (Ji Yuan) and another line of the profound swords was white (Ding Xiaoxiao).

    Instead of shing against each other, the two lines of hundreds of swords were resonating and coiling around each as the profound power of each of the profound swords had suddenly increased by several folds!

    So great were the profound powers of their profound swords that the profound shockwavesing from their profound swords were resonating and felt by all the cultivators that were battling with one another.

    Their profound swords prated the formidable aura of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and had sent him to fly backward with a loud tumbling explosion on the ground!

    Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan were both startled; it was not because they had seeded in temporary pushing back the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo or they got impressed by their own profound sword arts.

    But because they had suddenly unwittinglybined their profound sword arts into a newbine profound sword art instead!

    This means that they have to bepatible in both their auras and resonates in order to do so and it is an extremely impossible thing to do; without spending alot of time together, naming dual cultivating together!

    Ji Yuan was only able to use abine sword art with Ling Feiyue which was the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon. And Ling Feiyue was like his little worm that could perfectly understands him.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao?!

    Ji Yuan was startled by this as she looked secretly at Ding Xiaoxiao and Ding Xiaoxiao was also looking at him¡­

 Chapter 1106 The Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe

    Chapter 1106 The Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe

    Just as Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao thought that theirbined sword profound art would actually do some damage as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was sent crashing rolling backward, something happened.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo got on his footing again and had suddenly roared thunderously, releasing the sanctorum power of his true divinity sword Giga Goliath from his forehead.

    Immediately profound swords that were still flying toward him to explode upon him had all dissipated into a wall of red light and the remnants of the profound swords had all exploded into a chain of white and ck white!

    Just like this, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo hadpletely dispelled their sword domains with his cultivation might.

    The destruction of their profound swords had also sent Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan to fly back and crashing back against the mountain walls with a thunderous implosion!

    Ji Yuan recovered in the next instant as he shook off the debris from his ground.

    But he saw that Ding Xiaoxiao had coughed out blood and it took her 3 blinks of an eyeter to move again.

    He could not resist asking her, "Are you alright?"

    While he had disyed his 9th realm cultivation profound aura with his sword aura but Ding Xiaoxiao only had the protection of her 8th realm cultivation sword aura so her damage taken should be considerably harsher than him.

    Ding Xiaoxiao nodded quietly as she trembled to stand steadily, "My sword aura is still intact so I can still fight. He is stronger than I''ve expected."

    Ji Yuan weakly thought: Of course, he is strong. He is a True God after all and you mark up our chances against him¡­

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was now surrounded by a globe of red light and from this red sphere, hundreds of beams were shooting forth!

    Ding Xiaoxiao shouted to Ji Yuan, "Dodge! This is his life force energies attack that isbined with his infernal red sphere. If we got hit by it then we can''t regenerate for the time being and can only depend on natural healing¡­"

    She was interrupted by a red piercing beam that exploded ''on her''.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao had quickly moved out of the way and only her afterimage was hit.

    Ji Yuan was also evading dozens of red beams that were directed at him at the same time.

    However hundreds of cultivators that were fighting nearby were not so fortunate, whether they were the abyssal cultivators from the Nightfall Heights or the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and many of them were obliterated instantly.

    The red sphere that surrounded the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo were shooting for miles around him and he was raining his ''red rain of death'' discriminatingly.

    This was his Red Sphere of Anntion.

    Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan were also parrying away some of the destructive red beams when they could not no longer evade; luckily for them, their true divinity swords were powerful enough to ward them from the worst possible wrought destruction.

    However, they tried not to parry all the time as the destructive red beams would also burn away their sword auras at the same time, causing them to weaken by decimating their profound strength and also because they were still being flung off by the red beams upon impact which caused them to lose their bnces, increasing their risks of being killed.

    Ji Yuan was amazed that Ding Xiaoxiao was able to evade as fast as he was.

    But the same amazement was also felt by Ding Xiaoxiao as she noticed his reflexes as well.

    It seemed that the both of them were not putting their best when they were dueling with each other, reserving some of their trump cards until now.

    Ding Xiaoxiao suddenly whispered to Ji Yuan, "You can still use your Dividing One Sword right?"

    Ji Yuan replied frankly, "I can only use it onest time. But I have no confident that I can break his defenses. He is just too massive and the disparity in our cultivation strength is still too big a disparity."

    Ding Xiaoxiao nodded slowly, "I''ll make an opening for your Dividing One Sword. But you got only one chance to strike¡­."

    She did not wait for Ji Yuan to agree with her n and instead she had sped toward the top of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo as she was suddenly enveloped by a faint white light.

    Ji Yuan had never seen this disy before.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had raised her Divine Ptine as she suddenly splintered the dozens of red destructive beams that were directed at her.

    Ji Yuan was startled; he had never seen this sword domain before and she could actually redirect all the attacking red beams of light with just her 8th cultivation strength alone!

    She was shouting loudly, "Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe!"

    This was her fifth sword domain and Ji Yuan had realized that this was also the sword domain that she had realized during their duel.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo could feel an enormous amount of pressure that was exerted by this Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe and he was actually sinking into the earth by the mere 8th cultivation strength sword domain.

    Not only that, all his hundreds of red beams that were directed at her were redirected by an invisible force that caused all his profound attacks to go beyond her.

    And this maiden had shown no sight that she would release her 9th cultivation strength; if she did, he would not want to think what the profound power of her Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe would be.

    All of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao had raised her Divine Ptine above her head as it formed a pir of white light that reached to the heavens, "Prepare to receive my most powerful sword strike, the Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe!"

    Then she shouted, "Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan was not slow to react when she called for him.

    It was because Ji Yuan had suddenly seen an opening that was provided by her Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe that caused the red shield of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo to falter an opening for him.

    Immediately he had worded his sword concepts into disying his Dividing One Sword.

    At the same time, he had also used his trump card of the Life and the Death Domain.

    This was not just an ordinary Life and Death Domain that he had used previously but his Greater Life and Death Domain that he had realized after he had merged with the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God.

    It was made possible because his body was full of life force energies, more than any other cultivators.

    And using this Greater Life and Death Domain would literally double the profound power of his Divine One Sword that Ji Yuan been saving as his ultimate trump card.

    He had no idea why Ding Xiaoxiao had thought that he would have a more powerful version of the Divine One Sword and had volunteered to make an opening for him even though he could see that her Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe was more powerful than the Divine One Sword that he had disyed in front of her.

    But today was not a time to conceal his trump cards anymore as this was a battle of life and death.

    Ji Yuan was now shouting as he raised his ck sword to disy it into a long beam of ck light that was flying toward the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, "One Sword of the Great Void that divides the Heavens and the Earth; the Dividing Sword of the Great Void. The Dividing One Sword that destroys all cultivation concepts, returning everything to the Great Void."

    Ji Yuan was also shouting in his soul sea.

    "Xiang Li! I need your aura enhancement for my sword aura and ultra sword spirit!"

    "Anyang! I need some of your five elements profound strength!"

    "Aura! I need more spiritual force energies!"

 Chapter 1107 The Undefeatable Gong Diablo

    Chapter 1107 The Undefeatable Gong Diablo

    Ji Yuan disyed a more powerful version of the Dividing One Sword and disyed a ck spear of light at which the red sphere around the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was faltering due to his fight against Ding Xiaoxiao''s sword domain.

    He could only make use of Xiang Li''s unique ability to enhance aura only once and rarely asked her for her help.

    But this time, he was being forced to request for her help.

    Xiang Li merged his Ultra Sword Spirit and Sword Aura into one formidable profound aura empowered the Dividing One Sword that he was going to disy with his Greater Life and Death Domain.

    If this sword profound art failed then Ji Yuan would face inevitable defeat.

    When Ji Yuan disyed his One Dividing Sword with all everything that he could muster into it, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was startled as he raised additional profound defenses to shield himself.

    This was another powerful sword profound attack that could hurt him and it was also another sword profound art that he had recognized too.

    "The Dividing One Sword of the True Devil God?! Impossible!"

    The ck spear of light fractured his red sphere as though it had strangews and concepts that could dismantle his profound defenses before striking the immobilized Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo that had been held sunken in the ground by the Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe.

    At the same time, Ding Xiaoxiao had also seized the opportunity to bring down her Divine Ptine like a spear of heavenly profound light that struck upon the back of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Where the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was, his red sphere expanded outward in a terrible wave of destruction that obliterates everything in its path.

    But at where he was, two long sphere of light, one white and one ck were still pounding upon him.

    Then the Giga Goliath on the forehead of the Immortal Gong Diablo glowed with a brilliant red light and he was also roaring with huge rage, "Lowly cultivators. Do you really think that I do not know that you are trying to force me back to the immortal realm? Let me tell you, your puny attacks are not enough to wrestle with a True God! Let me show you my almighty might¡­"

    With that he had trampled the ground mightily with his huge talons and he had released his half-step cultivation powerbined with his true divinity sword.

    A red sphere of light exploded all around him and throwing Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan to flung against the mountain walls again.

    This powerful sphere of red light was so powerful that even parts of the mountain citadel of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was crumbling down even though it was made of obsidian celestiums.

    "Die! Die! Die! And face my wrath!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was flung to where Ji Yuan was nearby and she had coughed out golden blood; she was extremely near to the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo when his profound attack had urred and she had taken a direct hit.

    Ji Yuan was trembling and he was still nailed onto the mountain walls when Ding Xiaoxiao was flung and crashed into the mountain walls too.

    He muttered weakly, "I''m sorry, everyone. I did my best but I have exhausted all my strongest profound arts¡­"

    Xiang Li was crying: Huhuhu. I don''t want Big Brother to die¡­ no more bang, bang¡­

    Ji Yuan was actually quite touched by Xiang Li when he had heard her first part but he rolled his eyes when he had heard the second part.

    He just forced himself to smile strongly as he looked up at the red heavens silently: In the end, I am going to die. But even if I am dying, I am not going to make a wish. My only unfulfilled wish is that I cannot see my Jiajia ever again¡­ so I have waited for 100 years in vain?

    Then he was thinking of his other maidens and issued a simr apology: I have not banged enough of all of you yet, especially Shui Xisi¡­

    Anyang was a little speechless that both Xiang Li and Ji Yuan were still thinking of the bangs at this crucial moment¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly got on her feet and she was supporting herself with her long winged white sword.

    "Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had suddenly said to him. "I am going to release my 9th realm cultivation strength now. It seems to me that I have overestimated myself and also underestimated the power that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo possessed with his true divinity sword. His Giga Goliath has long be his fate weapon and I was deceived by him. I''m sorry¡­"

    Then she turned to look weakly at Ji Yuan, "We may not have a chance to duel in the Celestial Realm anymore¡­"

    Ji Yuan turned to her to say panicky, "You really think that I do not know that you have exhausted your two most powerful sword domains? So what if you are able to release your true cultivation strength? You should run or return to your immortal world instead¡­"

    All of a sudden, the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was screaming within his red sphere as he trampled and causing earthquakes to split from the ground.

    It was because the white light and ck light that Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan had released had suddenly revived again after making contact with each other.

    And these two lights were expanding and coiling around the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo like two huge coiling serpents as they burned, pieced and wounded the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Both Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were both shocked to see this; it was because their two most powerful sword arts had merged together to form a new profound art once again and it was more powerful that any profound arts that they had ever disyed.

    They hadbined their profound arts, not once but twice and it was all unwittingly!

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped with unbelief while Ji Yuan was shocked, "This is¡­ ourbined profound art?"

    The two coiling serpents of lights were swirling so fast that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo seemed to be surrounded by two long streaks of lights, one white and one white.

    Then it exploded like into a supernova of profound energies andpletely disintegrating the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and even the Giga Goliath had shattered as well.

    They did not seed in sending the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo back to his immortal realm but they had actually seeded in killing him.

    Ji Yuan looked with great astonishment at Ding Xiaoxiao, "We have killed him?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped softly as she blinked her eyes, "We have¡­ killed a True God¡­"

    One must know how difficult it is to actually kill a half-step True Divinity. Even another half-step True Divinity may not have the profound power to threaten another half-step True Divinity.

    That is the reason why the Great Demon God, the Deste Dragon God and the Death God Mingwang could not gain an advantage against one another for a long time.

    The profound power of theirbined sword art together had actually gone out of the scale and had eliminated a half-step True Divinity Gong Diablo.

    The death of their True God shocked the numerous abyssal cultivators that were also watching the battle between the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao unfolded before them even as they fought against the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao almost fainted with joy when she saw that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao had actually killed the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, even though just a while ago, she was actually cursing them for bringing back the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Even Juan Xian''Er, Ding Jie''Er, Tang Manni, Li Yifen, Jun Qianfeng, Millenium Jun Feitian and the other Cardinals were shocked; they were actually losing any hope that they would all survive the battle.

 Chapter 1108 Victory at the Nightfall Heights

    Chapter 1108 Victory at the Nightfall Heights

    When the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo had suddenly died in front of the abyssal cultivators, there were great fear among them and many of them began to flee from the fighting by jumping off the mountain cliffs.

    If even the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo could be killed just like this, they could also be instantly killed by Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Out of 7 top abyssal cultivators, only 4 had now remained.

    One got killed by a random st from their Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and 2 had died in the fierce fighting.

    Although the cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were lesser in numbers but they were all putting an extremely fierce fight and had seemingly unshakable morale especially when their Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were leading them in the fight.

    At this crucial battle, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were not going to sit back since they were also 2 of the highest realm cultivators and they could make a difference.

    Naturally Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni also joined them as they disyed their spirit talismans and spirit animus which startled the abyssal cultivators as they had never seen such profound attacks before.

    The rest of the Cardinals and Millenium Jun Feitian were not idling either as they led their elders and cultivators to defend fiercely.

    The more numerous abyssal cultivators soon broke ranks as they scattered, not willing to fight anymore.

    The Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was now dead.

    Their Abyssal King Gong Magog and his two royal princes were also dead.

    They had even lost 6 out of the 10 top cultivators from the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    It was time to retreat and divided the Nefarious Blood Kingdom for themselves. If they werete then nothing would be left and only bones were left to be picked!

    Many of the abyssal cultivators were even thinking of storming the royal pce and to take their share of the harems of the Abyssal King and the royal princes for themselves.

    Simply put, most of the abyssal cultivators were not thinking of taking vendetta for their abyssal king but they were more interested to partition the Nefarious Blood Kingdom for themselves and they made themselves the lords of the cities in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    In time toe, the Nefarious Blood Kingdom would split into 4 smaller kingdoms, each one controlled by 1 of the former top 10 abyssal cultivators.

    Meanwhile, Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were both astonished that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was killed by theirbined profound art.

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped with disbelief as she stared at Ji Yuan, "My new sword domain ispatible with your sword domain? This is¡­ impossible¡­ I have never shown it to you before¡­"

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply and said with great disbelief as well, "Well. Seeing is believing¡­"

    Then he had suddenly remembered that he had a score with settle with Ding Xiaoxiao as he suddenly grabbed her shoulders as he bitterly said, "Just now, why did you do that for? Do you know that you are not only endangering us but all everyone at the Nightfall Heights as well?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed her by her shoulders and he was rebuking her.

    In normal circumstances, she would make sure that the offender pays a heavy price such as having his head rolled on the ground for touching her like this.

    But in case, she actually did not and was listening to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was suddenly realized that he was grabbing hold of her dedicated smooth and bare shoulders.

    And he was looking a little awkward as he could feel his hot heat on her cool jaded shoulders.

    Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly to him, "But we have won, right?"

    Ji Yuan was supposed to be angry with her but after touching her shoulders, he was also able to view her low neckline that exposed her curved bosoms, half of his anger had actually disappeared.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was flustering as she continued to exin, "Do you think that he will let us go even when he returns to the immortal realm? A true god has evesting memories and hatred. He will have his minions to hunt you down and even harm your love ones even if you are from another part of the Six Divine Realms. Is that what you want? So it is better to hurt him while we can to buy ourselves some time. But in this case, we have managed to kill a true god. Isn''t it good?"

    Then she coyly looked at Ji Yuan, "It seems that with you, I am able to reach the acme of my sword art¡­"

    Actually Ji Yuan had wanted to rebuke her harshly and even to bang her on the spot in his rage but when he had caught hold of her, he did not know what to say anymore.

    So he just muttered, "Thank you..."

    All of a sudden, there was a terrible earthquake that caused the ground to tremble to violently and this caused a weaken Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao to fall into each other embrace!

    Ji Yuan was stunned when he felt Ding Xiaoxiao''s bosoms pressing upon him and he had even caught hold of her bare back¡­

    As for Ding Xiaoxiao, she as gasping and was flushing hotly for the very first time when Ji Yuan had caught hold of her¡­

    This earthquake was actually quite violent and it was not a single earthquake; it was because the 10th rank gargantuan tortoise was smashing itself on the steep cliffs of the Nightfall Heights as it attempted to flee from the scene as well.

    But before it fled, the monster had decided to vent some of its anger on the mountains which caused the mountains to shake violently, knocking Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao together.

    Ding Xiaoxiao did not know what to say but asked shyly, "Ji Yuan, are you¡­ upset with me?"

    Ji Yuan was still too stunned as he held Ding Xiaoxiao in his embrace, "Erm, no. I was just so worried for you¡­"

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both stunned by what Ji Yuan had just said; it was obvious to them that he was quite upset with Ding Xiaoxiao and for a moment they had thought that he would bang Ding Xiaoxiao on the spot by disying his anger.

    -

    -

    -

    In the Great Beyond Realm.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was aware what had happened to Ji Yuan as she could view his fight with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    But there was nothing she could do to help him to ovee his opponent who is a True God of the Great Abyssal Realm.

    She quickly ran through a number of divination calctions.

    "No, wait. There is still something that I can do¡­"

    She had suddenly realized that Ding Xiaoxiao has a 99.9%patibility with Ji Yuan in regards to their sword dao.

    However, they had only a 0.33% chance of merging their profound arts together as they had never attempted to merge their sword art before. Even so, the chance for seeding on the first time is merely 3.33% as both their sword arts were extremely high level; the higher it is, the lower the chance for creating a merger or abined sword art.

    However, this was not a real issue for the Great Beyond Goddess as her divination showed that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao may have a future rtionship with each other. So she started to pull their future threads and weaved their future odds into this battle, increasing the chance for their sword arts to merge to 33.33%.

    While it was still not a 100% chance but it was quite a big chance.

    Luckily, Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao managed to create not one but two miracles with this 33.33% since theirpatibility was 99.99% anyway.

    The Great Beyond Goddess never throw dice but in this rare instance, she did and she has won the gambit.

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not directly intervene; she just adjusted the concepts of space and time a little for this battle.

 Chapter 1109 Nightfall Heights Battle Repercussions

    Chapter 1109 Nightfall Heights'' Battle Repercussions

    The news that the Nefarious Blood Kingdom had lost at the Nightfall Heights stunned the rest of the abyssal denizens in the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and rippled throughout the other abyssal kingdoms as well.

    The Nefarious Blood Kingdom was actually an empire that controlled at least 130 cities and 1/5 of the abyssal poption in the Old Abyssal Regions.

    It had not only lost a battle at the Nightfall Heights but their mighty ancestor god the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was also killed.

    A true god that got himself killed in the lower realm?

    This was totally unthinkable to the abyssal races!

    And impossible too!

    Not only that, 6 out of the top 10 abyssal cultivators were also killed too.

    Even the Abyssal King Gong Magog and the 2 royal princes were also killed as well.

    Take vendetta for the Nefarious Blood Kingdom?

    Hell, no!

    When this news hit everyone, there were mass revolts throughout the Nefarious Blood Kingdoms as the subjugated cities began to rebel instantly.

    The other abyssal kingdoms did not waste any time in attacking the Nefarious Blood Kingdoms as well to seize a portion of advantage from the ensuring chaos.

    United in the Holy Communism?

    The Holy Communism got spat and movements to support the Pagan True Faith exploded immediately.

    None of the other kingdoms truly embraced the Holy Communism at all!

    This was all a fa?ade, driven by fear of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom and the descent of their Ancestor God.

    There were wide spread celebrations throughout the Dark Abyssal Realm as the downfall of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was hotly cheered by the intimidated abyssal kingdoms.

    Years of suppression and rage began to explode immediately.

    Almost overnight, the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was gone and its royal city the Royal Nefarious City was racked and looted by the various powers.

    And the Nefarious Blood Kingdom was soon splintered into 4 minor kingdoms and the total size of these 4 minor kingdoms were not even half the size of the original Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    There had not been an abyssal emperor for a very long time and it seemed extremely unlikely from now onward.

    The Ancient Old Ones of the Ancient Race be reverenced once again by the abyssal kingdoms and the Nightfall Heights has be a sacred mountain for the abyssal races once again for falling the almighty Nefarious Blood Kingdom.

    It has been a really long time ever since the Ancient Race has ever felt so prestigious once again as they quickly restored their domains around the Nightfall Heights and to establish it as their sacred border.

    And the almost deste monasteries of the Ancient Race throughout the abyssal kingdoms were once again brimming with offerings.

    Dozens of abyssal kingdoms had also sent their envoys to re-established a friendly rtionship with the Nightfall Heights and to dere the Cardinal Priestess as their Holy Priestess.

    The defeat of the Nefarious Blood Kingdom had a far more deeper repercussions than anyone had expected in the immortal realms.

    -

    -

    -

    The Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny was actually brooding in her profound pce ship as she was being surrounded by arger abyssal immortal fleet.

    She had actually heard from her scouts that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo may be returning to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm anytime soon and he would join forces with the True Abyssal God Cthulhu.

    If so, then she may not be able to cope with fighting 2 of the major True Gods of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm at the same time as the other minor True Gods of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm were already causing plenty of headache for her and her chaos sovereigns.

    Actually, she did not want to attack the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm in the first ce but attacking an enemy''s territory would cause them to be on the defensive and to buy peace in their own immortal realm.

    All of a sudden there was a sign in the heavens and red star had supernova.

    She quickly did a quick divination and was delighted that a mighty true god of the Great Abyssal Realm seemed to have fallen.

    As to who it was, she had no idea.

    But she soon received a long range transmission from a scout report and she was told that Gong Diablo, 1 of the 3 major True God was killed in the lower realm and the immortal abyssals were all stunned by this news.

    One must know that the Gong Diablo had sacrificed vast amounts cultivation resources of the Great abyssal Realm in order to descend and just like this, tens of thousands of years of cultivation resources were wiped out and nothing was aplished in the lower realm.

    By descending to the lower realm, it was naturally to fulfill something really diabolic or else immortals of the 9th realm cultivator and above would not dare to descend so easily.

    And for a true god like the Gong Diablo, the price was extremely heavy and he could have sacrificed at least a few true divinity profound treasures as well.

    The goal of the Gong Diablo was to established his own lineage as the true master of the Middle Dark Abyssal Realm and in the future when his descendants and other abyssals ascended to the immortal realm, he would have more immortals under his control.

    There were once 13 major strong True Gods of the Immortal Abyssal Race but 10 were killed and Gong Diablo was one of the survivors.

    It is not to say that there are only 13 true gods that are in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm; there are also quite a number of the minor True Gods that are considered to be too weak to show their faces.

    The half-step True Divinity Gods actually have 3 tiers of strength; Major, Minor and Lesser.

    The lesser true gods of the abyssals were quite weak even against a minor true god.

    Gong Diablo used to be a minor true god but he had since be a major true god as all the 10 major true gods were all killed by the True Devil God.

    The mention of the True Devil God was forbidden in the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm as he used to be the most powerful of the powerful abyssal true gods and was a true divinity existence that betrayed his own kind.

    That was what the 13 abyssal true gods in the past had not realized that and most of them were killed and the True Devil God had fed upon their infernal cultivation cores to be a Beyond Divinity.

    And then the True Devil God was killed by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Since then, the name of the True Devil God had be taboo to be mentioned and can only be whispered.

    The Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny asked the scout through the profound transmission, "How was he killed?"

    When she was asking it, she was holding her belly, trying to suppress herughter; this was too funny and too outrageous to happen!

    "It is said that he was actually killed by two cultivators. There are rumors that they are not true gods but merely immortal cultivators. But they each have a true divinity weapon. That is how Gong Diablo was killed by them."

    Destiny: ¡­

    "Only a true god can kill another true god. It is impossible for any cultivators to have the profound power to do so even if they have a true divinity weapon."

    The scout added, "They are sword deities. So it may be possible."

    Destiny was startled, "Sword deities? What are they like?"

    The scout said, "One is man and another is a female. The female has a white true divinity sword while the man has a ck true divinity sword."

    Destiny was not interested in any maidens but when she had heard that the man has a ck true divinity sword, she knows that it is not Ji Yuan.

    But she could not help with a mutter, "The True Devil God also has a ck true divinity sword as his weapon. But he is¡­ dead a long time ago and his sword was also long lost¡­"

    But nevertheless, she asked the scout. "Is it possible to get more information how the Gong Diablo has died?"

    The scout replied, "I do my best. But it is not our realms. This is merely third hand information that we got from the abyssals so right now, we don''t know how trustworthy the news is and also, they are also trying to figure out as much as possible too with their scouts at the lower realm."

    Destiny nodded.

    The immortal abyssals would be able to send a low level immortal to the lower realm to verify the news but not their race, they can''t since the ce where the Gong Diablo has died isn''t part of the sphere of influence of the Chaos Race.

    Destiny closed the transmission before making a soft chuckle to all themands of the profound ships that were anchored in space.

    "Prepare for a breakthrough against their blockade!"

    Her announcement stunned the chaos cultivators.

    "Breakthrough?"

    "Isn''t it too risky?"

    But Destiny chuckled, "I am afraid that they have no mood to fight us today. So, what are we waiting for? Breakthrough and return to our own immortal world."

 Chapter 1110 The Victory Banquet (1)

    Chapter 1110 The Victory Banquet (1)

    A big celebratory banquet was now being held at the Argos Pce of the Nightfall Heights.

    The great guest of honor was of course Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    This banquet was held slightly two days after the great victory over the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and all the senior cultivators from the Nightfall Heights were invited to this jovial banquet.

    Ji Yuan was forced to recuperate for 2 days as he had been afflicted by the life force energies of the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo''s profound attacks.

    Luckily for him, he was able to purge all the harmful life force energies out of his body as he not only has a high cultivation but also, he is quite an expert in energy cultivation himself.

    However, he also secretly did a few things in-between his recuperation cultivation; he took the opportunity to bang Li Yifen, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er as well.

    He had to do it in secret and divided the maidens into 3 groups.

    The first group was Li Yifen.

    The second group was Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    The third group was Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er.

    Scoring a victory over these 5 maidens were much more gratifying to Ji Yuan than his victory over the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Before anyone could finger to Ji Yuan that he had a wanton lifestyle, especially to Anyang, Ji Yuan would like to emphasis that he was in serious need of recuperation as Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er have the 3 Supreme Divine Body and they could aid in his recovery.

    So, it was purely out of needs.

    Anyang had cheekily asked him, "What about Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni too? Surely you don''t have a need for them to recuperate yourself, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan conveniently ignored Anyang and pretended to be distracted.

    To have 5 most beautiful and alluring maidens with him in bed, Ji Yuan was feeling like he was the true emperor of this Dark Abyssal Realm instead.

    At the same time, he was actually quite bothered as he had suddenly realized that his trial would end in another 3 days.

    Then he would lose his chance to bang Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er; he meant the 3 Supreme Yin Divine Body of course.

    That was because he can''t bring them to the Celestial Realm with him.

    During this time, he had also formed a deep attachment to the 3 maidens too.

    Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Jian Xian''Er were also quite heartbroken that Ji Yuan would be leaving soon.

    Just before this great banquet was starting, Xuan Qiaoqiao had also brought him a piece of news and asked him, "Do you want to hear the good news first or the bad news first?"

    A puzzled Ji Yuan asked her,

    "Erm, the bad news first?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao woefully said to him, "The bad news is that I am going to be the first ever unchaste Holy Priestess to have a baby. The good news is that you are going to be a Papa soon."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He would actually be this lucky?!

    Then he remembered that Xuan Qiaoqiao has 1 of the 3 Supreme Yin Body and it was actually quite possible.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao added nonchntly, "She is a baby girl. I will bring her up and name her Xuan Xueqi. I hope that you remember that you have a daughter by the name of Xuan Xueqi in this ce."

    Ji Yuan don''t know whether he should cry orugh when she had said that.

    "I don''t intend to hide my baby and I intend to let everyone knows that you are the father of my child. Therefore, I will announce this during the banquet."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Then she rubbed her belly and smiled, "Having a baby with Savior Ji Yuan isn''t that bad. Don''t worry, they won''t make things difficult for me. It is because I have already told the other Cardinals. In fact, I will abdicate my Holy Priestess position for my unborn baby girl."

    Ji Yuan sighed bitterly, "Qiaoqiao, one day I''ll find a way to get you to the Celestial Realm to be with me. Then our whole family won''t be separated by the two realms."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was extremely touched as she woefully said to him, "I hope you remember this¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er who was with them quietly looked at Ji Yuan, "What about me? You¡­ don''t want to bring me to your Celestial Realm in the future?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Xian''Er is also my family. Naturally I won''t forget about you too. I will bring you of course¡­"

    And Li Yifen too, he silently vowed.

    Without these 3 maidens, he won''t be able to realize his Greater Life and Death Domain in such a short time even if he had the inspiration to advance his Life and Death Domain; he has to credit it to their 3 Supreme Yin Divine Body.

    When Ji Yuan had made this promised to Juan Xian''Er, she fell into Ji Yuan''s embrace. And Ji Yuan had also pulled Xuan Qiaoqiao to be in his bosoms.

    He sighed, "The two of you, I won''t ever forget about the two of you¡­"

    Juan Xian''Er smiled faintly as she hugged Ji Yuan tightly, "Ji Yuan, do you remember how we have met?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I remembered. An extremely maiden hade to my personal room that night and asked me to green the Abyssal King Gong Magog. And you have asked me to go to your guest room. At first, I thought that it was you. Haha¡­"

    He looked affectionately at the two maidens in front of him andughed softly, "That is perhaps the most ridiculous request that I have ever heard in my entire life. And I am so d that I did go to your personal room."

    Juan Xian''Erughed softly when she had heard him.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked him softly, "So you like my Sister Xian''Er first! What about me? Am I not as appealing as my Sister Xian''Er?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Of course you are. More than what I was expecting back then. In fact, I was trying very hard not to bang you. Hahaha¡­"

    "Gutless Ji Yuan," Xuan Qiaoqiao hummed at him but she was actually smiling.

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "I am a gentleman of the sword, you know. Moreover, I think you will kill me if I do. Or Xian''Er will kill me."

    The two maidensughed softly together, "Never!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes with disbelief; these maidens are so flexible after they had been dominated by him. He was sure that they meant to kill him if he touches them back then¡­

 Chapter 1111 The Victory Banquet (2)

    Chapter 1111 The Victory Banquet (2)

    When the jovial banquet had officially started, there were more things that were on Ji Yuan''s mind that were bothering him.

    It was because he was now sitting in the seat of honor with Ding Xiaoxiao.

    And she was really extremely beautiful today which startled Ji Yuan as she put on a charming robe which showed her curves nicely.

    He was gulping dryly at her beautiful sight.

    And Ding Xiaoxiao was one of the things that had bothered himtely, especially after they had embraced each other after the battle with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    After fighting with her against the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, he found it really hard to picture her as an enemy that he has to fight when he is back to the Celestial Realm.

    It was still an undeniable fact that they were actually on opposing sides.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was looking quite coquettishly as she sat near to Ji Yuan, not saying anything while Ji Yuan was the more talkative one as he returned toast after toast.

    By now, most of the cultivators had gotten used to the quiet Ding Xiaoxiao so they did not mind at all.

    Moreover, they were all quite impressed by her sword skills and her cultivation strength.

    Without Ding Xiaoxiao to fight alongside Ji Yuan against the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo, they would not have won such a great victory and earned so much prestige in the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    It was not exaggerating to say that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao had single handedly won the Ancient Race all the lost prestige of their Ancient Race and made the other abyssal races trembled at offending the Nightfall Heights for a very long time.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had never been so intimate with a man before and Ji Yuan was the very first man that had ever impressed her, not once but multiple times.

    Although they did not have much exchanges with each other and they had duel in many different ways but he had earned her grudging respect.

    She thought that it was no wonder why there were so many maidens that were all willingly to follow Ji Yuan.

    Like Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao was finding it hard to focus her sword intentions against him should they duel again in the Celestial Realm.

    She was greatly bothered by it.

    As she would be fulfilling the third and final wish of the Great Demon God, she may be forced to release her peaked 9th cultivation strength against Ji Yuan should the Great Demon God ordered her to fight against Ji Yuan.

    From all appearances, Ji Yuan was the most powerful cultivator in the Celestial Realm now and he was naturally the biggest threat to the Great Demon God''s ambition to seize the Celestial Realm from the immortals of the Nine Heavens Divine Realm.

    The loss of the Celestial Realm to the Deste Immortals would severely hurt the Nine Heavens Divine Realm as it is their most important great world.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was not the only one that was bothered in this banquet.

    Cardinal Confident Jun Qianfeng was looking quite depressed and her eyes were fluffy; she had been crying for the past 2 days when she had learnt that Ji Yuan would be leaving the Dark Abyssal Realm in 3 days.

    She was actually heartbroken.

    Although she was not rejected by Ji Yuan but she did not have the chance to talk with him too.

    In her heart, she wanted to express her affections for Ji Yuan.

    She felt that even her mother consort Li Yifen had more opportunities to talk with Ji Yuan because she was his Cardinal Harpy and they were both staying in the same Cathedral of the Songs.

    Although she had paid the Cathedral of the Songs several visits, often multiple times in a day but Ji Yuan was always in cultivation.

    She soon realized that she was simply not fated to be with Ji Yuan and was heartbroken.

    Also, when she had learnt that even Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er had an affair with Ji Yuan, she was even more heartbroken.

    Sitting near to her was the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen; how could she not know how her daughter is feeling right now?

    She was well aware of her daughter''s visits and half of the time when Jun Qianfeng hade, Ji Yuan was in bed banging her instead.

    Li Yifen felt extremely guilty but matters of the heart could not be forced.

    She also knows that Ji Yuan had a leg with the Cardinal Priestess and Juan Xian''Er too, two of their highest level cultivators at the Nightfall Heights.

    When Xuan Qiaoqiao had told the Cardinals about her pregnancy and that her child''s father was Ji Yuan, it shocked all the other Cardinals and Millenium Jun Feitian.

    Millenium Jun Feitian had also liked Juan Xian''Er even though he already had Ur Muyuan. But in this regard, he was more generous as he said outspokenly. "Savior Ji Yuan truly deserves Xian''Er and our holy priestess."

    Sitting further away from Li Yifen were the 4 maidens Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    The 4 of them had be unbelievably closetely and were always together.

    Right now, the 4 of them were gossiping in secret that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao must be a pair of secret couple.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er even told Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er about their duel in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    For the past 2 days, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian''Er were asking the two divine consorts Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni plenty of questions on Ji Yuan''s background.

    As the jovial banquet was on-going, the Cardinal Patriarch had suddenly shouted jovially. "Everyone, listen here. We got an announcement to make for everyone¡­"

    Everyone began to look in his direction.

    The Cardinal Patriarchughed jovially as he looked at the Cardinal Pope and the Cardinal Herald, "As you all know, we owe the victory over the Nefarious Blood Kingdom to Savior Ji Yuan and Maiden Xiaoxiao here. Therefore, the Cardinal Council has decided on unanimous decision to make Ji Yuan and Maiden Xiaoxiao our honorable Ancient Race. From today onward, they will be one of us!"

    When he had announced this, all the senior cultivators and elders numbering more than 3000 were all cheering loudly inside the great hall.

    Their cheers were so loud that the Argos Pce was even trembling with their loud ps and cheers even though the great hall was protected with anti-sound barrier.

    The profound voices of so many cultivators together were a match for the defensive array that were in the great hall!

    Almost all the cultivators were shouting, "All hail Savior Ji Yuan! All hail Maiden Xiaoxiao!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Thank you. I am so happy with his honor¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao merely smiled as she did not attach any importance to any positions.

    The Cardinal Pope rose up to make another announcement, "Everyone! I have another announcement to make. Our Cardinal Priestess will be engaged to Savior Ji Yuan today as well."

    The reason why Juan Xian''Er was not mentioned because her affair with Ji Yuan was still a secret and she was worried that the Immortal Ancient Race would find out about it so she did not tell anyone.

    The great hall exploded into loud chattering immediately; it was not displeasure but great excitement!

    The cultivators actually did not mind that Savior Ji Yuan was actually taking their Cardinal Priestess and Holy Priestess as his consort.

    Jun Qianfeng lowered her puffy eyes as she sincerely wished the two of them well but it could not hide her broken heart.

    It came as a surprise to Ding Xiaoxiao as well even though she had suspected that Ji Yuan had an affair with Xuan Qiaoqiao for some time.

    She lowered her eyes to say quietly to Ji Yuan who was sitting near to her, "Congrattions on getting another consort."

    Ji Yuan turned to her with a grin, "It is only for ceremony''s sake. After that, I will be returning to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    "You don''t have to exin to me," Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly "Soon, all your consorts will be widows anyway."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Author Note:

    1. The banquet isn''t ending soon. More surprises in the next chapter.

 Chapter 1112 The Victory Banquet (3)

    Chapter 1112 The Victory Banquet (3)

    Just as Ding Xiaoxiao was talking to Ji Yuan, Millenium Jun Feitian had suddenly stepped forward to stand in the middle of the banquet hall.

    And all of a sudden, he had kneeled down in front of Ji Yuan much to the astonishment of the 3000 cultivators that were in the great hall.

    Millenium Jun Feitian humbly said, "Savior Ji Yuan. I know that you will ept me as your disciple!"

    Ji Yuan was quite startled by this request, "Erm, I will be leaving soon and I don''t think I can teach you much¡­"

    He was definitely not going to teach him his old man''s broken swordy to anyone or his good name would be aughing stock in the future.

    Millenium Jun Feitian bowed down on the floor, "May Savior Ji Yuan please ept me as your humble disciple. I''ll abide by anything that my cultivation master instructs me."

    Li Yifen turned to Ji Yuan and said quietly, "Maybe you can ept him as your token disciple?"

    A token disciple is a disciple that is in name only and there is no need to teach a token disciple anything.

    Ji Yuan answered immediately as he grinned, "Alright then. I shall take you as my token disciple. Haha¡­"

    Millenium Jun Feitian was really happy and he quickly bowed his head 3 times on the floor, "Your humble Prot¨¦g¨¦ Jun Feitian pays my earnest respect to my cultivation master!"

    Ji Yuan raised his cup to toast him and then said to him, "This is a toast for you. You may go back to your seat first. Haha¡­"

    The reason why Ji Yuan agreed so readily was because he felt that he owed Li Yifen quite a lot especially when he had benefited from her Pure Yin Divine Body. So, this was but a small favor that he had to repay her by taking in Millenium Jun Feitian as his token disciple.

    Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly to him, "Congrats on getting a new disciple."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly as he turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiao but he could not help but to look down at her exposed belly and then he saw something familiar; it was a small purple runic taboo.

    It was so faint and small that even Ji Yuan would have missed it.

    But the reason why he was staring at this purple runic taboo was because he saw a simr purple runic taboo on Yun Chi as well and it was also tabooed at the same spot.

    It was not unusual for the same tribe to taboo a simr totem or taboo especially when both Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao are also deste cultivators from the same realm.

    And so, Ji Yuan did not think much of this.

    His quiet thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a cultivator that had rushed into the great hall who urgently reported, "We have caught 3 cultivators¡­ they are celestial cultivators and they im to know Savior Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was startled.

    3 celestial cultivators?

    Are they my 3 brothers? Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye?

    Then he was frowning at the same time, "How did they know that I am here?"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao who had met them before, asked curiously. "Where did you catch them?"

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao was quite curious as she looked at the cultivator that reported this news to the Cardinals and to Ji Yuan in the great hall.

    The cultivator said quickly, "We caught them not far away from the Nightfall Heights and they erm¡­ erm¡­"

    Xuan Qiaoqiao asked impatiently, "What?"

    The cultivator gulped dryly, "After we have caught them, they threaten us by saying if we do not let them go then their Brother Ji Yuan will surely kill us all. It is only then that our scouts realized that we may have caught some friends of our Savior Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan cursed them silently: They actually used my name to threaten the others¡­ howe they are so weak to be caught¡­

    Then he looked at Ding Xiaoxiao and bitterly said to himself: Thest thing that I want to see is her suitors showing up¡­

    Although he had said that but he quickly said, "Bring them here. Maybe they are really my friends."

    Xuan Qiaoqiao said too, "Quickly bring them here."

    Very soon, the three celestial cultivators were brought into the great hall and they were still cursing loudly.

    "Let us go! Or our Brother Ji Yuan shall ughter all of you!"

    They were indeed Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin.

    When they were brought in, they were quite stunned to see that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were also presented in the great hall as well.

    Shen Qin was delighted to see Ding Xiaoxiao again, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, you are also here?"

    Guo Taiming panicky said, "Brother Ji Yuan, don''t tell me that you are caught by them too?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly and asked Guo Taiming, "Do I look like a prisoner?"

    Guo Taiming could see that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were both seated together in the middle at the end of the great hall and that there were 3000 other cultivators in the great hall as well.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, is it their custom to erm¡­ sacrifice you at the end of this feast?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xuan Qiaoqiaomanded, "They are indeed Savior Ji Yuan''s friends. Loosen their profound bonds and let them go."

    It was only then that Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin had realized that Maiden Qiaoqiao was also presented too and that there were several great beauties that were near to Xuan Qiaoqiao as well.

    Guo Taiming asked curiously, "Savior Ji Yuan? Brother Ji Yuan, they call you a savior?"

    Ji Yuan instead asked them curiously, "Why aren''t you in the forest where you will be safe?"

    Shen Qin exined as he looked at Ding Xiaoxiao, "We were actually looking for Maiden Xiaoxiao as we were quite anxious for her as she had suddenly disappeared. It is good that you are safe now."

    Li Ye further exined, "We saw the Immortal Heavenly Wrath and the outburst of several profound energies in this direction so we thought that Maiden Xiaoxiao was caught by the abyssals so we decide to head this way to look for her."

    "That''s right." Guo Taiming grinned. "But we never thought that Brother Ji Yuan will also be here too and so is Maiden Xiaoxiao."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled to Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin, "Thank you for your concerns. I am safe now¡­"

    She then turned to look at Ji Yuan to smile, "It seems that you have so many pieces of good news like epting a new disciple and also engaging to a such a beautiful maiden. Well, I have a piece of good news to announce to you as well¡­"

    All of a sudden, the cup that was in Ji Yuan''s hand had shattered violently and everyone was so startled by it that there was silence immediately.

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao appeared to be startled by Ji Yuan as she frowned softly, "What is the meaning of this?"

    But Ji Yuan had an ugly look as he stared at her.

    Guo Taiming gasped, "Brother Ji Yuan, what are you doing? Why are you throwing your temper all of a sudden?"

 Chapter 1113 The Victory Banquet (4)

    Chapter 1113 The Victory Banquet (4)

    Ji Yuan was also startled by himself when he had suddenly broken the cup in his hands.

    When Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly said to him that she also had a good piece of news to reveal as well, he was so startled that he broken the cup in his hands.

    It was because he thought that Ding Xiaoxiao was about to announce her engagement to 1 of his 3 brothers.

    This was logical to Ji Yuan because Ding Xiaoxiao actually did not kill them but were even with them to protect them. If she did not like one of them, would a lofty and powerful cultivator do something like this?

    Ji Yuan would if he likes a maiden.

    Therefore, his analysis should be quite urate.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao was also startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly broken his cup and she was looking with a perplexed look at Juan Xian''Er, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as she silently wondered to them.

    She was wondering if she did the right thing by asking Ji Yuan''s brothers to stay; they are brothers, and good friends, right?

    However, the 3 other maidens were equally clueless.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to everyone as he exined awkwardly, "Erm, I use a little force when I was drinking. Hahaha¡­"

    When everyone had heard Ji Yuan, they were allughing jovially again.

    It was just an ident.

    Even Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye were all looking quite relieved and they were allughing jovially again as they goggled at the many beautiful serving maidens in the great hall.

    As soon as this was over, Ji Yuan disyed an ugly look as he asked Ding Xiaoxiao. "Just now, you say that you are going to announce something? What is it?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao wondered why Ji Yuan was suddenly looking at her with such a solemn look, "My three friends are all here now so I am going to announce something that is rted to them. Surely you don''t mind, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan''s face be even uglier; even though he had promised his three brothers not to green them since they were interested in Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao but he just could not help feeling quite disgruntled about it.

    His guts feeling was right after all; Ding Xiaoxiao is going to announce her engagement to 1 of his 3 brothers.

    And Ji Yuan was now feeling quite unhappy about it.

    But he forced himself to say bitterly, "I don''t mind at all. You can announce it to them all. The more people that know about this, the more the better."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled at his reply.

    Then she turned to face in front of her as she said sharply, "Everyone, today I have another matter to announce to all of you¡­"

    When Ding Xiaoxiao had announced this, everyone stopped their toasting and jovial chatters to turn to look in her direction.

    "Maiden Xiaoxiao also has something to announce to all of us¡­"

    "I wonder what it is?"

    "Maybe she is also announcing her engagement?"

    "Like Savior Ji Yuan, Maiden Xiaoxiao is also our Savior¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s face grow more and more ugly as he waited for Ding Xiaoxiao to announce her ''good'' news.

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued with a faint smile, "Now that Ji Yuan''s brothers are here, it is now convenient for me to announce this¡­"

    Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming were curiously looking at Ding Xiaoxiao: ???

    They were all thinking: Is she announcing that she will be with one of us? This happiness hase too suddenly¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly as she brushed aside her long silver hair covered her pointed ears. At the same time, she also revealed her crimson eyes instead of her golden eyes.

    Like Ji Yuan, she was capable of using the Mystic Eye Profound Art to change herself to a golden celestial or even a low level cultivator.

    "As you can see, I am not a celestial cultivator. As a matter of fact, I am a deste cultivator. Now do you see?"

    Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye were all startled but they quickly protested, "We don''t mind at all. You are our friend, celestial or not!"

    Ji Yuan was startled too and his face bes less ugly: She isn''t announcing her engagement to them? No wait, maybe she will soon if they don''t mind her being a deste cultivator at all¡­

    Then his face had be ugly again.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly as she had suddenly disyed her 8th realm cultivation, "I am also not a low level cultivator too. I have in fact, used my profound strength to pull all of you together for this trial. Or else, we are bounded to be separated for this trial."

    This time though, Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye were all astonished and were all startled.

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to say quietly to them, "I lie to the three of you."

    Guo Taiming immediately said shamelessly, "Love crosses all racial and cultivation boundaries. I don''t mind at all!"

    Even Shen Qin and Li Ye were both agreeing strongly, "Brother Guo Taiming is right. Love conquers all."

    Ji Yuan felt quite ashamed that he actually knows the three of them and he felt like digging a hole to hide himself: Why did I have to know these 3 shameless brothers? For a maiden, they are willing to throw away all their principles and prides. If I were them, I definitely won''t do the same as them.

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly to them, "However, I am afraid that I am already¡­"

    She turned to Ji Yuan and smiled tenderly, "I am already engaged to Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan was startled: Engaged to me?! When?!

    Then he received a kick from Ding Xiaoxiao from under the shared table as she sent him a divine whisper: You don''t mind helping me to shake them off, do you?

    Ji Yuan immediately stood up and grinned with pleasure, "Right. Right! Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is already engaged to me. Hahaha¡­"

    When everyone had heard Ji Yuan, they were all astonished and were looking quite startled.

    Although Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and Li Yifen were all looking quite startled but somehow they had expected this as Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were just toopatible when they were fighting together; they had even developed twobined sword arts together instead of one.

    If anyone had told them that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were not an item, they would actually not believe it.

    This was something that they had been suspecting all along but they had no evidence to prove it.

    As for other ancient cultivators of the Nightfall Heights, they too had suspected that Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were an item and this announcement, proved everything.

    Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming were all staring coldly at Ji Yuan now and their faces were extremely ugly; didn''t Ji Yuan tell them that he is not interested in Ding Xiaoxiao and he won''t green his brothers?

    Anyang pointed out to Ji Yuan: Did you just talk about principles just now? You actually lie to your brothers? Or you really like Maiden Xiaoxiao and intends to green them?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: Big Brother is always right.

    Anyang: ...

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao isn''t theirs in the first ce. So this isn''t considered to be greening, right? Moreover, I am being chivalrous to help her to shake off my irritating brothers. Hahaha¡­

    There was a delightful glow in Ji Yuan''s countenance now and he was no longer disying an ugly look at Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But he quickly said aloud, "Everyone, I have another matter to announce too."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuan had made this announcement to distract himself from answering to Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye who were all looking quite murderous at him.

    "During my journey to your realm, I have encountered some helpless ves. The Nightfall Heights don''t mind taking them in? Not as ves but as free people, do you? I can''t bring them to my realm but I also can''t just abandon them."

    Juan Xian''Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao had remembered the people that they encountered while inside the Delphi Pce.

    So Xuan Qiaoqiao took the initiative to answer Ji Yuan, "Yeah, why not?"

    The other Cardinals were also nodding as well.

    This was a small favor to repay their Savior Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Thank you all¡­"

    But at the same time, he pretended not to look at his 3 brothers and instead he was looking at the beautiful alluring figure of Ding Xiaoxiao who was sitting next to him.

    And Ding Xiaoxiao had also caught his look and she was smiling faintly, "Thank you foring to my aid. I want to do a clean parting with them. As you know, we will soon be enemies once I am back in the Celestial Realm. Will your brothers be angry with you?"

    Ji Yuan was staring dreamily at Ding Xiaoxiao instead, "Huh? What brothers?"

    Then he grinned, "Do you always keep your word of honor?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered nonchntly, "Of course. I always keep my word of honor."

    Ji Yuan stared at her bosoms as he asked yfully, "So, you just say that you are engaged to me¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

 Chapter 1114 Brothers, hear my Explanations first!

    Chapter 1114 Brothers, hear my Exnations first!

    Late at night.

    The banquet was finally over now.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had quietly left the banquet halfway as the atmosphere of the banquet did not suit her quiet cultivation.

    She withdrew all her profound animus and blend in with her surroundings quietly as she looked at the night heavens of the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    In just a few days, she would be leaving very soon and then she would have to fight with Ji Yuan; this possibility increases each time when she had met him and it was only because he was getting stronger each other.

    In short, he is a threat to the Great Demon God''s grand scheme of things.

    She was quietly thinking about many other things beside that.

    Earlier, Ji Yuan had stunned her by suggesting that she ought to be engaged to her too.

    She had replied, "You know that I was only joking, right?"

    Ji Yuan had chuckled, "Jokes are only preserved for friends but we are ''enemies'' so I am taking it seriously."

    She had hummed, "Do you think that by getting engage to me, you won''t be killed by me?"

    Ji Yuan had replied with more chuckles, "Of course not. But if I got killed, it means that you will be a widow as well. Hahaha¡­"

    She was a little speechless when she had heard this.

    Ding Xiaoxiao muttered to herself, "Maybe if you have said that you like me, I may be a little merciful toward you instead of making me the butt of your cold jokes¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was interrupted by several loud quarrels.

    Curious, she saw that it was actually Ji Yuan, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming.

    They had thought that there was no one here and had picked this spot here to quarrel.

    Guo Taiming said angrily to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, didn''t you promise us not to shown any interest in Maiden Xiaoxiao? And you are even going to be engaged to her. Are we still brothers?"

    Li Ye said solemnly, "Brother Ji Yuan, we have met Maiden Xiaoxiao first and we have been though a lot. We understand her more than you understand her."

    "Brother Ji Yuan, you already have a big harem. Why are you doing this to us?" Shen Qin sighed heavily. "To think that we have always treat you as our brothers."

    "You have greatly disappointed us," Guo Taiming furthered added.

    Ji Yuan protested, "This isn''t what you think. Naturally you are all still my brothers and I did it for your sake!"

    Guo Taiming hummed coldly, "You have better have a good reason for doing so. But I doubt so."

    "This doesn''t change the fact that you have green us and stolen Maiden Xiaoxiao from us." Shen Qin hummed coldly.

    Li Ye was also nodding.

    Ji Yuan pretended to heave a long sigh, "Brothers. You have no idea how heavy the 3 of you weight in my soft and tender heart. Do you agree that Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao is a deste cultivator and that she is also our enemy?"

    Guo Taiming hummed coldly, "And you got engaged to an enemy instead of us. What a joke!"

    Shen Qin and Li Ye both said together, "That what I am thinking as well."

    "She is a good deste cultivator for sure," Shen Qin added.

    Ji Yuan protested, "I am actually trying to sacrifice myself so that I can be a mole so that I can extract information from her."

    Guo Taiming asked curiously, "Why do you want to extract information from her?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to sigh heavily before he said solemnly, "In case you guys do not know it yet, she is from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin were all shocked, "She is¡­ really from the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "You have better believed this. You will believe me when we are back to the Celestial Realm. Therefore, she is a direct enemy of our Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Li Ye was greatly startled, "How is it possible? Maiden Xiaoxiao has helped us so many times. She doesn''t look like a cultivator from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Shen Qin was also startled, "This, are you sure about this? She is really from the Evil Cultivation Pce? Not just a deste cultivator?"

    Guo Taiming was shocked too, "But, but¡­"

    Ji Yuan raised his fingers as he interrupted Guo Taiming, "Have you ever wondered why she is purposely trying to get close to three of you? So that when the timese, the 3 of you won''t be able to have the heart to strike at her¡­"

    Li Ye muttered, "It''s not like we are able to able to defeat her, given her cultivation realm¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted Li Ye, "That''s not the point! As the saying goes, striking the heart is more important than winning by brute force! By subduing the 3 of you, she will be sowing a terrible discord between the 4 of us! And she will joyfully delight herself in watching the 4 of us fight among ourselves!"

    Shen Qin weakly said, "But do you have any proof?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he patted his heart, "Proof? I can make a bloody oath to my soul heart that Ding Xiaoxiao is from the Evil Cultivation Pce and she serves the Evil Demon God. Not only did they want to take over our Deste Celestial Realm but they want to take over the entire Celestial Realm as well."

    Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming slowly looked at one another¡­

    Ji Yuan further pointed out, "And I stood in their way. The reason why Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao tries to get close to me is because she hopes to be a mole for the Great Demon God by getting close to me. However, I am only pretending not to know her plot and y along with her. Do you all understand me? Do you all know the risks and sacrifices that I have to take?"

    Guo Taiming was hesitating now and half of his anger had subsided, "Erm, but why should she do that for? Your cultivation sect is but a poor sect and you are just an average cultivator."

    Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming did not know that Ji Yuan had already be a super cultivator and they had not really witnessed his fights or cultivation realm while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "Although my cultivation sect and I are average but my consorts have a big background. Together, I am a threat. Through me, she will destroy our Deste Celestial Fraternity. As you know, the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Sect are very good in evil dual cultivations, seductions and many nefarious profound arts. I am sacrificing myself for all of you!"

    Li Ye sighed heavily, "Poor Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Shen Qin was also sighing, "We have wronged you and have misunderstood you, Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Guo Taiming was also nodding, "We didn''t know that she is from the Evil Cultivation Sect and Maiden Xiaoxiao did not tell us too. Brother Ji Yuan, you will need to have a will of steel in order not to be corrupted by Maiden Xiaoxiao''s great mesmerizing beauty¡­"

    "We wronged you¡­"

    "Please forgive us, Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled loudly, "Don''t forget we are brothers! Of course, I won''t green the 3 of you unless there is a good reason for this¡­"

    A lovely but cold voice had suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan from behind him, "When did I ever seduce you?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned ashen.

    So did Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming.

    An extremely alluring maiden in white and like a beautiful white lily had appeared from behind Ji Yuan and it seemed that she had been here for a long time.

 Chapter 1115 Ji Yuans Death Wish to Ding Xiaoxiao

    Chapter 1115 Ji Yuan''s Death Wish to Ding Xiaoxiao

    The suddenly appearance of Ding Xiaoxiao startled Ji Yuan, Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye.

    Just as Ji Yuan thought that Ding Xiaoxiao was about to massacre all of them, she merely hummed coldly.

    "So what if I am from the Evil Cultivation Pce? But did I ever seduce you?"

    This question was directed to Ji Yuan.

    With that she had walked away.

    Although she was still looking nonchntly but Ji Yuan could tell that she was very upset as he could not see the tenderness of her eyes and she did not even take a second look at him.

    Ji Yuan panicky went after Ding Xiaoxiao, leaving Shen Qin, Guo Taiming and Li Ye a little perplexed.

    The Argos Pce was actually quite arge pce with many hallways.

    As soon Ji Yuan had turned into a hallway where he hadst seen Ding Xiaoxiao turning into, he had dumped into the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng.

    Jun Qianfeng was startled by Ji Yuan when he had suddenly bumped into her into a hurry.

    "Savior Ji Yuan, you are still here?"

    The banquet was held at the Argos Pce and the Argos Pce belonged to the Cardinal Confidant.

    Ji Yuan seemed to be in a hurry as he said hurriedly, "Yes, I am still around here¡­ hahaha¡­ but I am going now¡­"

    "Wait, Savior Ji Yuan." Jun Qianfeng pursed her lips as she halted him. "May I say something to you?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Yes?"

    Jun Qianfeng sighed woefully, "I ought to apologize to you for calling you a lowly human when we had first met. I must have left behind a bad impress for you¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her with a chuckle, "Don''t worry about that. Didn''t you help me to gain ess to the Sanctuary of the Forbidden as well? I should be grateful to you instead. Also, I didn''t have any bad impression of you too."

    Jun Qianfeng lowered her head shyly, "Is that so? This is good¡­"

    Her eyes were actually still fluffy but now her eyes were wet and her tears were flowing down her beautiful cheeks.

    This startled Ji Yuan, "Cardinal Confidant, erm¡­ did I say something wrong?"

    Jun Qianfeng forced herself to smile as she quickly rubbed away her tears with her fingers, "No, you didn''t say anything wrong. It is just that I am¡­ really touched by what you have just said."

    Ji Yuanughed with relief, "That''s good to hear. For a moment, I''ve thought that I have said something wrong."

    Jun Qianfeng said quietly, "Savior Ji Yuan, are we¡­ friends?"

    Ji Yuanughed without any hesitation, "Of course we are friends! I am so d to have met you while I am in the Nightfall Heights."

    Jun Qianfeng slowly nodded, "This is good to hear¡­"

    Once again, her tears began to weep; she had been quite depressedtely as she had been keeping her questions for Ji Yuan at the bottom of her heart.

    Ji Yuan was quite startled that Jun Qianfeng had started to weep again and he was suddenly at a loss.

    "Erm¡­ this¡­"

    Jun Qianfeng forced herself to smile, "This is good enough for me to know. This is enough for me¡­"

    Then she was trembling lightly as she said, "I shall not disturb you anymore, Savior Ji Yuan¡­"

    With that, she had turned around to walk hastily away.

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Ji Yuan had no time to ponder this as he wanted to exin to Ding Xiaoxiao.

    So he quickly ran as soon as he could along the hallways, hoping to find Ding Xiaoxiao. But if she concealed her presence, then he could only depend on his line of sight to find her.

    At the same time, he was sighing and cursing himself for what he had said earlier; he really did not know that Ding Xiaoxiao was nearby when he had said all those ugly words to his 3 brothers.

    Ji Yuan soon spotted a beautiful and alluring white figure that was in the hallway ahead.

    No doubt that the beautiful and alluring white figure was Ding Xiaoxiao.

    "Maiden Xiaoxiao, please wait¡­"

    But Ding Xiaoxiao continued to walk rapidly and she ignored him.

    All of a suddenly Ji Yuan had shed in front of her as he panicky said, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, wait. Listen to my exnations first."

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed coldly, "So, I am trying to seduce you. What is there to exin?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "You are angry with me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed coldly, "I am not¡­"

    "Yes, you are." Ji Yuan interrupted her with a grin. "Or else you won''t be this upset."

    Then he took a deep breath and said awkwardly, "I am just trying to get them off from you. They like you and I am not happy about this¡­"

    "Why should you be unhappy about this?" Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted him coldly.

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply, "Maybe because¡­ I like you¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled by what Ji Yuan had just said and she disyed a slight tremble as she looked at him but did not say anything.

    Ji Yuan continued to say awkwardly but his voice was also full of tenderness, "I think that if we are not destined to fight after our trials inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had ended then we can surely be great friends with each other. We can exchange and share our sword enlightenments with each other¡­"

    Then he smiled awkwardly, "Or perhaps, we can even disy ourbined sword arts together once again."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said slowly, "You don''t have to exin to me. I am not upset with you."

    With that, she had suddenly walked off again.

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grabbed her slender wrist and said, "Xiaoxiao, I think I like you. No, I really like you¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled, "I am a deste cultivator from the Evil Cultivator Pce¡­"

    "So what? I have consorts from the Evil Cultivation Pce as well," Ji Yuan said heavily.

    Then he added solemnly, "I am serious about having you to engage to me. Shouldn''t you keep your words of honor for that?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked away, "You know that I didn''t mean it¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grabbed Ding Xiaoxiao on her waist and he was forcefully putting his beautiful face in front of her to kiss her on her lips.

    He decided to have a death wish now to clear this misunderstanding immediately; it is either he dies or to resolve it.

    Ding Xiaoxiao trembled at his touch and she was stunned when Ji Yuan was suddenly kissing her.

    When Ji Yuan saw that Ding Xiaoxiao did not push him away, he got bolder and he was soon kissing her passionately on her cherry lips and was even sticking his wet tongue into her mouth.

    Soon, he was using his hand to grope her slender body while Ding Xiaoxiao was gasping softly and was flushing coyly.

    But Ding Xiaoxiao responded with her passionate kisses too and allowed Ji Yuan to embrace her intimately.

    If the words got out in the Immortal Deste Realm that Ji Yuan was kissing the Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily, then most deste immortals would think that Ji Yuan was simply courting his own death or have a death wish.

 Chapter 1116 The Bold Ji Yuan

    Chapter 1116 The Bold Ji Yuan

    Ji Yuan could not believe that he was actually holding the usually cold Ding Xiaoxiao in his arms. Not only was he holding her intimately but he was also kissing her passionately.

    Her mouth was really sweet and the more that Ji Yuan had kissed her, the more passionately he had be.

    He was soon groping her lovely slender body and even moving his hands between her butts¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had an impulse to bang his nemesis in this ce¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped softly when Ji Yuan was overdoing thing and then she had pushed him away.

    But when she had pushed Ji Yuan away, she gasped again and then turned her eyes away shyly, "It iste tonight. We should all retire for the night. And do not follow me."

    This time she did not walk away rapidly but she had disyed her profound aura to speed away like a sh of light in the darkness of the hallway.

    This time though, Ji Yuan did not follow her as he knows that he may not be able to catch up with her this time round.

    Also, he was also looking quite shocked that he had the courage to actually seized Ding Xiaoxiao to kiss her.

    At that time, he was more panicky that Ding Xiaoxiao would be upset with him and hence, he tried to stop her in her tracks.

    He had actually fallen in love with her and he was jealous of his 3 brothers when Ding Xiaoxiao was always mentioning them.

    The lingering sensation of her sweet mouth and the feeling of her sensual soft body had also overwhelmed Ji Yuan when Ding Xiaoxiao had left.

    Ji Yuan had also sniffed her fragrant and remembered her intoxicating scent.

    "Xiaoxiao¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Just outside the trial portal that led to the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    As the time for the end of the trial was drawing near, several of Ji Yuan''s maidens were gossiping and chatting with one another.

    Ling Feiyue sighed, "I really hope that Ji Yuan will be alright in the Dark Abyssal Realm¡­"

    "He will be alright," Shui Xisi chuckled softly. "He is as tough as vermin."

    Feng Minyue said weakly, "It isn''t that nice topare Ji Yuan with that."

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "Don''t worry, he won''t know about this."

    The lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was alsoughing, "But I really pity him having to go to the Dark Abyssal Realm alone."

    Yang Mi asked curiously, "Why?"

    The Lovely Empressughed with great loveliness, "Can you imagine going to an abyssal realm where there are no maidens that can match our peerless allure and where there are only ugly abyssals around?"

    Yu Jingjing giggled softly, "Maybe we should go and enter the portal with him instead."

    "And be candies for the abyssals there? Never!" The Lovely Empressughed.

    Zhi Jiugong asked, "But do you think that Ji Yuan would be in mortal danger? I am a little anxious for him."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden answered, "He can always use the golden talisman to escape. Usually, the high level trials will allow the use of a golden talisman to exit the trial unless there is a strong reason to disallow the use of the golden talisman which is quite unlikely."

    When she had mentioned this point, many of the maidens wereughing jovially.

    One of the excuses that they had cooked up in not following Ji Yuan into the trial portal was what if the golden talisman could not be used.

    Little Princess also could not resist joining in the conversation, "But this time I really pity Ji Yuan for being in such a dark trial. He is definitely not going to enjoy himself."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "That''s for sure. I am just amazed that he can stay put inside the trial for so long without using his golden talisman. I have already seen so many cultivators in the past few days that had exited the ce in a hurry."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden unhappily said, "He had plenty of fun while he was in the Spirit Divine Realm. I am afraid that his cherry blossoms luck has run out for this trial."

    Many of the maidens were allughing and agreeing with her.

    "Ji Yuan is going to be a lonely cultivator for this trial¡­"

    "I really pity him this time, heehee¡­"

    "s, he may be missing us in the meantime and wishes that we can be in hispany¡­"

    "He must be terribly bored in this trial but he will try to put on a brave front in front of us¡­"

    "The trial is ending soon and we can see him soon enough¡­"

    But unknown to them all, Ji Yuan still have plenty of cherry blossom luck for this trial; he has Little Jie''Er, Tang Manni, Li Yifen, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Jun Qianfeng and even Ding Xiaoxiao with him for this trial.

    Mo Bei could not help cutting in as he sat with Qin Shuang, "That rascal Ji Yuan is probably holing in some ces to salvage some of his pride. Then when he is back, he will boast to us about his trial aplishments. Isn''t that quite typical of him?"

    The White Sword Monarch also said in his old grave voice, "Damn, He got so much energy for the trial. He should recuperate like we do before returning to the Celestial Realm. It is not like he could tell the whole world about his trial aplishments since it is forbidden to mention about the trials in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Then he turned to smile at Yun Chi, who was sitting with Bai Qianfeng. "Maiden Yun Chi, don''t you think so as well?"

    Yun Chi had been unusually quiet for the past few days and she was even gloomy.

    She merely disyed a faint smile, "I do agree."

    But she did not say more as she looked at Bai Qianfeng.

    It was because she was quite anxious for JI Yuan.

    Just a few days ago, she had found the skeleton remains of a profound beast that had not yet been fully absorbed by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    And she had found traces of sword energies that were left behind by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily.

    At that time, Bai Qianfeng was also with her and they quickly concluded that Ding Xiaoxiao was also inside the trial as well.

    That was why Yun Chi had been quite gloomy and Bai Qianfeng was also quite quiettely; if Ji Yuan encounter Ding Xiaoxiao then he would be in trouble or even get himself killed by her.

    Yun Chi said to Bai Qianfeng, "Number 1 is extremely unpredictable and she has no friends. And no one wants to cross her path easily. If she is inside the trial as well and encounters Ji Yuan again, you will never know what will happen."

    The two of them decided to keep this matter from the rest as they did not want them to worry.

    There was still a chance that Ji Yuan would be lucky enough to avoid Ding Xiaoxiao in this trial.

 Chapter 1117 Ji Yuan is courting death again

    Chapter 1117 Ji Yuan is courting death again

    While the 11 maidens Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Shui Xisi, Yu Jingjing, Yang Mi, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong were feeling anxious for Ji Yuan, he was busy parrying between 6 maidens in the Nightfall Heights.

    There were 5 maidens that Ji Yuan had a rtionship with while he was at the Nightfall Heights and they were Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    The 6th was of course Ding Xiaoxiao and not the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng.

    The next day, Ji Yuan had shown up in front of Ding Xiaoxiao again after searching with some difficulty for her at the Nightfall Heights.

    Ding Xiaoxiao had an abode in the Argos Pce but she was not in her room for the entire night.

    Rather, she spent the night looking at the starry red heavens for the entire night while thinking of what had happened between Ji Yuan and her.

    She remembered their passionate kisses and she was extremely confused about her feelings.

    She was so startled by being held by the man that she had developed an affection for that she had forgotten to push him away when he had suddenly held her in his embrace and he was even so bold as to kiss her.

    When he had started to rub between her butts, it was only then that Ding Xiaoxiao had realized that what she was doing and had pushed him away.

    She was feeling greatly rmed that she would fall in love with Ji Yuan, who was an enemy of the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The truth was, it had be a fact.

    Especially when they had undergone a life and death battle together against the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Their synergies together were unmistakable.

    She had actuallye to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to fight the strongest sword cultivator in the Deste Celestial Fraternity out of boredom and that strongest sword cultivator was Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    She had no obligation to help the Great Demon God to fulfill his ambitions but she had promised him to do 3 things for him in exchange for the true divinity sword that was in her hands.

    Over the thousands of years, she had already fulfilled 2 things for the Great Demon God and had helped him to kill two of his most threatening opponents.

    Therefore, she still has on more unfulfilled task left remaining for her to do by the Great Demon God.

    She continued to think even when the red heavens had brightened into the day when all of a sudden Ji Yuan had popped into in front of her.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was quite startled to see Ji Yuan as the mountains of the Nightfall Heights were really vast and she had concealed her profound aura.

    Ji Yuan had actually taken several hours to track her down as soon as the night was over; he was actually an excellent tracker and he had a superb eyesight as he could quickly scan the mountains for any weird disturbances.

    Then he noticed that this part of the mountains was too quiet and that there were no birds that encircle above it.

    So he thought of trying his luck in these parts of the mountains.

    And sure enough, he had found Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ji Yuan quicklyughed as he walked to her, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, erm¡­ I apologize for what I didst night. I was a little too drunk. I have too much of a drink during the banquet. Haha¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was truly startled that Ji Yuan was able to find her but she answered nonchntly, "I was also a little drunkst night too. We can treat¡­ like nothing has happenedst night."

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "Although I was drunkst night but my feelings for you are real."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled: ???

    "I really like you," Ji Yuanughed awkwardly. "Maybe you will think that it is the funniest thing that you have ever heard but I really like you. At the banquet, I was upset when I''ve thought that you will be going to be engaged to one of my brothers and hence, I broke my cup. Then I try to sabotage your rtionships with my brothers by telling them who you really are¡­"

    "I don''t mind at all," Ding Xiaoxiao smiled. "Sooner orter, they will know that I am from the Evil Cultivation Pce too."

    She really did not mind at all since she was quite used to being called by various names and usations even in the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    She is an enemy of the celestial cultivators and this is an undeniable fact.

    Ji Yuan repeated himself, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, I like you. I really do."

    Ding Xiaoxiao lowered her eyes shyly, "I think that you are still drunk fromst night¡­"

    "No, I am not." Ji Yuan said firmly to her. "I am already sobered up now."

    "Is that so?" Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly.

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "I am not trying to persuade you to join my side or to end our fight. Because I know that you have no other choice but to fight for the Great Demon God. You are definitely not one of them, I can tell because you have more honor that these evil cultivators."

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked up at Ji Yuan, "Why do you say that?"

    Ji Yuan said quietly, "I can tell from your sword intentions. Your sword intentions are untainted and you have never used any despicable means to win. Even from our first duel, I have already known. Or else you won''t dere that I am the victor of the duel even though you can easily dispatch of me if you want to continue to duel. You don''t seek victory just because you want to win. This is your sword dao."

    Ding Xiaoxiao curiously asked him, "Then what is your sword dao?"

    Ji Yuan said after some hesitation, "I didn''t know my sword dao until recently. Maybe my sword dao is to use my sword to defend and protect all my love ones."

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded, "Then you have better be ready when we are fighting the next time because it will be my sword dao versus your sword dao. And only one of our sword dao may survive through the end battle."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "What if my sword dao is also to protect you?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled, "Why should your sword dao protect me?"

    Ji Yuan sighed, "Because you are also one of my love ones."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Ji Yuan said all of a sudden, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, I know that you are unwilling to ept me. But have you forgotten that you have promised me two unfinished things that you have yet to do for me before the trial ends?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao curiously asked, "When did I ever promise you to do 2 things for you?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Firstly, you have to let me bang you once. Secondly, you have said that you will get engage to me. Have you forgotten about these two things?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao immediately protested, "I have also saved you against the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo and saved the day for you. Consider this debt cancelled¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her as he said shamelessly, "But we won''t have to fight the Gong Diablo if you have not stopped him from leaving. So I am actually the one that helps you to clean the mess instead."

    Ding Xiaoxiao weakly said, "Then what do you want?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly taken a bold step forward and he had grabbed her slender waist to pull her forward to him as he started to kiss her passionately.

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped between the passionate kisses, "What are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan said shamelessly, "I want you to honor your word and allow me to bang you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly to him, "You are really not afraid that I will kill you immediately?"

    But Ji Yuan was already rolling with Ding Xiaoxiao on the grassy ground as he pressed upon her bosoms.

    He was even lifting up her short skirt to reveal her white panties.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?!" Ding Xiaoxiao was gasping with disbelief.

    But Ji Yuan continued to kiss her passionately as he ran his hands on her bosoms and the rest of her body, "Xiaoxiao, I love you with all my heart¡­"

    In that instant, Ding Xiaoxiao''s heart had melted; she stopped resisting and surrendered to her stirring heart instead¡­

 Chapter 1118 Ji Yuans Heavy Heart

    Chapter 1118 Ji Yuan''s Heavy Heart

    Ji Yuan cupped Ding Xiaoxiao''s heaving bosoms before he pulled the straps off her bosoms to expose her milky white breasts. Then he furiously kissed and licked her soft breasts.

    Before long, he had also reached his hands into Ding Xiaoxiao''s short skirt and pulled down her white panties to her thighs and he had a picturesque view of her maiden valley¡­

    Soon, one thing led to another when they were both naked.

    When Ji Yuan was embracing intimately Ding Xiaoxiao and taken her chastity; something miraculous had also happened between them as they united together as one.

    They didn''t just join together in body but spirit as well as the two of them have an instant breakthrough in their sword cultivation, gaining a higher awareness in their sword dao.

    Ji Yuan felt veryfortable with Ding Xiaoxiao and Ding Xiaoxiao was equallyfortable with Ji Yuan.

    Their slow passionate kisses soon became furious passionate kisses after their first coption when Ji Yuan got bolder.

    And they soon made love for a day and a night in the mountains.

    Ji Yuan had literally swept his hands and kisses all over Ding Xiaoxiao slim white naked body when Ding Xiaoxiao said tenderly to him, "We¡­ this isn''t right¡­ your friends must be waiting anxiously for you by now. Let''s go back."

    Ji Yuan answered her, "Not until you have agreed that this won''t be thest bang and this bang isn''t over yet then we can continue it the next time."

    Ding Xiaoxiao nodded slowly. "Alright. We should go now."

    Ji Yuan listened to Ding Xiaoxiao but not before running his fingers down her naked butt first to tease her further.

    "You!!!" Ding Xiaoxiao gasped.

    Then she sighed softly. "Never mind¡­"

    Soon they were back to where the pces of the Nightfall Heights were.

    Indeed, the other maidens Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were all extremely worried for the past day as Ji Yuan had virtually disappeared for an entire day and night.

    They had also noticed that Ding Xiaoxiao was also missing.

    So when Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao were back, they were all delighted and asked him where did he go.

    JI Yuan cooked up a story and took up the initiative to answer them as he knows that Ding Xiaoxiao did not like to lie and she was looking shyly away, "We have a secret duel elsewhere. Hahaha¡­"

    This startled the 6 maidens as they asked him anxiously, "So who has won?"

    JI Yuan answered them coolly, "I have lost."

    Ding Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Yuan with a startled look¡­

    Victory and defeat actually mean very little to Ji Yuan.

    Moreover, Ding Xiaoxiao had dered him as the winner when they had fought for the very first time. So now, he was repaying her by dering her as the winner this time round.

    Xiang Li was giggling to Ji Yuan: My Big Brother''s sword is indeed very powerful.

    Anyang sarcastically said: What sword are you referring to? Our lord just admitted that he lost, you know.

    Xiang Li giggled coyly: Of course, it is the sword that can bang 1 day and 1 night.

    Anyang sighed: I give up on you.

    Although she had said that, but she was also enjoying watching Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan the entire time as she watched Ji Yuan banged nonstop with Ding Xiaoxiao this entire time.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan had only 2 days left to be with the maidens at the Nightfall Heights before the trial ended.

    During this time, he had also banged Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er, Juan Xian''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Li Yifen.

    But he did not bang Ding Xiaoxiao any longer; it was because she had suddenly departed from the Nightfall Heights without telling anyone.

    Ji Yuan was quite heart broken as though he had lost something and he was actually looking for his next bang with Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But there won''t be a next time as the next time that they meet, will also when they are on the opposing sides.

    Without Ding Xiaoxiao, Ji Yuan felt like he had lost something very important and he felt very empty; even his bangs looked empty and he felt like he was constantly being green.

    Ji Yuan actually did not speak to his 3 brothers for the next 2 days but his 3 brothers had thought that Ding Xiaoxiao was upset with him and actually pitied him when she had suddenly departed from the Nightfall Heights.

    During these 2 days, Ji Yuan had also witnessed the ves that he had helped to free settling happily at the Nightfall Heights; they were granted homes and simple tasks within the Nightfall Heights.

    Old Fu and the others were quite surprised that they were at the Nightfall Heights and were initially afraid but the Ancient Race was too simr to them and they quickly adapted.

    Ji Yuan had also got the half-step immortal practices from Juan Xian''Er who had imparted to him readily.

    When the time hade for Ji Yuan to depart, he did so quite reluctantly.

    It was because he had to leave Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Li Yifen behind.

    It broke his fragile heart further and he became even more empty.

    Firstly, he had lost Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Secondly, he had lost Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Li Yifen.

    Xuan Qiaoqiao reminded him before he departed, "Remember, our unborn daughter''s name will be Xuan Xueqi. It means Snowy Ascension. I hope to ascend with you to the heavens with you together no matter how cold and dark it is."

    Ji Yuan nodded with a heavy sigh, "I remember that and I won''t abandon the two of you. One day, I''lle back for the two of you."

    As for Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er, they had returned to the Delphi Pce as they were not supposed to exit the ce until the Goddess Destiny had given them her permission.

    They were quite perplexed why there were no news from the Goddess Destiny.

    Naturally they did not know that the Goddess Destiny had some tricky problems on her own.

    As for the Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, Ji Yuan also had a short farewell with her. However, he wouldn''t reciprocate to this beautiful maiden.

    Jun Qianfeng sincerely wishes for Ji Yuan''s best tidings.

    With that, Ji Yuan had an emotional farewell with Juan Xian''Er, Xuan Qiaoqiao and Li Yifen as he departed from the Dark Abyssal Realm with a heavy sorrowful heart.

    Author Note:

    1. The trial in the Dark Abyssal Realm has finally ended. It ended with Ding Xiaoxiao departure as well. This story arc is also a story arc between Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan, not just with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as well.

    2. Next Chapter: the trial rewards of course!

 Chapter 1119 Ji Yuans Trial Reward

    Chapter 1119 Ji Yuan''s Trial Reward

    Ji Yuan was back to the dark spatial space once again.

    His trial had finally ended and he was taken away by a beam of light.

    Li Ye, Guo Taiming and Shen Qin were also all taken away by the same beam of light.

    The profound voice of the trial spirit said to Ji Yuan, "You have done well for this trial."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "You think so too? Do I deserve the best reward for this trial?"

    The trial spirit answered him, "Nope, you are only the second best."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Who has a better result than me?"

    The trial spirit answered him, "Secret."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The trial spirit chuckled softly, "But she is someone that you know."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Ding Xiaoxiao?"

    Then heughed softly; if it was Ding Xiaoxiao then he really did not mind at all. She had probably killed more abyssal cultivators than him.

    Also, they had both killed the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo together so it was not surprising that she would have an equally impressive trial achievement as well.

    The trial spirit did not admit who it was.

    JI Yuan asked all of a sudden, "Did you send me to the hardest part of the trial? Cos, I feel my trial is particrly hard."

    The trial spirit said coolly, "Of course I didn''t. No one asks to meddle in the affairs of the Nightfall Heights, right? Or fight the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo. You can be like your brothers and stay hidden away."

    The trial spirit had indeed sent Ji Yuan to the most difficult part of the trial and of course, the trial spirit was not going to admit it.

    The purpose of the trials in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were to send the celestial cultivators to the various hotspots throughout the Six Divine Realms to eliminate threats to the Nine Heavens Realm or to aid the current inhabitants.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "So, you are constantly monitoring me?"

    The trial spirit answered, "This is a trial. Of course, I have to do so."

    Ji Yuan quickly asked his next question, "So what is my rewards then?"

    The trial spirit answered him, "You have a choice of two great profound treasures as your rewards. But you can only pick one."

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "Hurry and show it to me. Haha¡­ the rewards for being second isn''t that bad, right?"

    Immediately there were two shes of light.

    The profound treasure to the right side of Ji Yuan was a scroll while the profound treasure to his left side was a golden orb.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What can these two profound treasures do?"

    The trial spirit exined, "The first scroll is the Great Longevity Scroll. Although it may be a one time use but you can use it to quickly regained your vitality and it also has the effect of increasing your life span. It can even reverse the age as well."

    Ji Yuan gasped, "It is indeed a great profound treasure. I bet all the old men in my Deste Celestial Fraternity will pay me a hefty price to obtain this Great Longevity Scroll. Also, if I use this Great Longevity Scroll, can I regain my life force energies too?"

    The trial spirit answered him, "You can indeed regain your life force energies and use your Dividing One Sword again."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Then this is a most wondrous profound treasure and may be what I may need for my forting battle. I think my choice is quite clear just by knowing what the first profound treasure is¡­."

    Then he chuckled, "Maybe even Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao isn''t my match if I use this Great Longevity Scroll against her. This is indeed an excellent profound treasure."

    The trial spirit said, "The second profound treasure is called the Divine Salvation Eye. Fusing it into your inner spiritual sea will grant you the ability to see through anything within sight. Other than that, it has no other uses."

    Ji Yuan gasped softly, "This is indeed quite useless, you know. You mean this Divine Salvation Eye can see through the clothing of the maidens and see them naked if I have it?"

    "indeed."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do you really think that I am such a lecherous cultivator? This profound treasure is indeed very useless to me."

    The trial spirit said to Ji Yuan, "Make your pick."

    Ji Yuan disyed a sheepish look before he grinned, "I shall pick the Divine Salvation Eye then."

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Wise choice, Big brother! I was about to suggest the same for you too!

    Anyang: ¡­

    The trial spirit answered Ji Yuan, "So be it then."

    The Divine Salvation Eye quickly disappeared into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea and granting him the ability to see through everything within sight.

    As for the Great Longevity Scroll, it disappeared into the thin air.

    Ji Yuan tried to exin to Anyang his choice, "As long as I have this Divine Salvation Eye, my enemies won''t be able to hide anything from me. So, this Divine Salvation Eye is actually quite useful to me. Hahaha¡­"

    The trial spirit interrupted Ji Yuan all of a sudden, "I forget to tell you this. Even though the Divine Salvation Eye can see through anything but it is not invincible. You can only see through any cultivators that are not lower than 3 cultivation realms than you. Also, you can''t see through any ces that are ward by the profound arrays as the profound force will prevent the Divine Salvation Eye from peeping through it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan''s dream of peeping into the celestial maidens had just gone bust.

    This means that if he was at the 9th realm cultivation, then he would only peep at the celestial maidens that were lower than the 6th realm cultivation.

    If he did not raise his false immortal cultivation realm at all, he would still be at the 7th realm cultivation and the effect of this Divine Salvation Eye would be even worse than he had thought.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You don''t mind if I exchange this for the Great Longevity Scroll?"

    The trial spirit said, "No, you can''t make an exchange once your choice is made. Moreover, after you have rejected the Great Longevity Scroll, it has been taken away by the one that is ranked higher than you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ding Xiaoxiao has taken the Great Longevity Scroll?

    Crap¡­ now I can never be able to defeat her¡­

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered another thing, "This trial spirit or rather the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth''s artefact core spirit. You did promise me to allow me to obtain you if I can perform well in this trial, right? Are you going to keep your promise?"

    The trial spirit said, "Since I am unable to return to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm anymore due to the interferences of the Great Demon God, I shall keep my promise to you and allow you to have my artefact core. However, it will be after the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But for now, you should go now."

    With that the trial spirit had dismissed Ji Yuan and he was taken away by a beam of light.

 Chapter 1120 Return to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    Chapter 1120 Return to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    When Ji Yuan returned to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the first thing that he did is to go around for Ding Xiaoxiao.

    However, he was quite disappointed that he had caught no sight of her.

    Instead, he had found Guo Taiming, Li Ye and Shen Qin from among the cultivators that had exited the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    There were multiple beams of light around the trial portal that were constantly exiting the celestial cultivators numbering around 400 of them to the trial portal.

    None of the cultivators were actually near to each other and everyone was at least a mile apart.

    However, to these celestial cultivators, 1 mile isn''t a big distance.

    Many of the celestial cultivators were loners and they quickly left the vicinity in a hurry.

    Some were even injured.

    There were even some celestial cultivators that were gossiping nearby too as they whispered, "Have you heard of this? I have heard that the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo was killed by someone while I was in the Dark Abyssal Realm¡­"

    After Ji Yuan had found his 3 brothers, he was also quickly found by his group that was waiting for him.

    It was rather easy to spot Ji Yuan since he had the shabbiest robe around.

    His group was a big one.

    He had 11 maidens waiting for him; Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Shui Xisi, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong.

    There was also Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and the White Sword Monarch that were waiting in the group too.

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "Ji¡­ Yuan!!!"

    Ji Yuan was also delighted to see all of them as heughed jovially, "Feiyue! Sisi! Little Princess! My Qianfeng!"

    These 4 maidens were the closest to Ji Yuan hence he had called them out first before he called out to the rest of the maidens.

    Then he greeted, "Senior Mo Bei. Maiden Qin Shuang¡­"

    Then heughed, "Hahaha¡­ old man¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch hit Ji Yuan on his head, "I can''t believe that you have actually greeted me thest?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Erm, I reserving my best respect for thest¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch hit him again, "Rubbish! You just not happy to see your old man again!"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he looked at Yang Mi and the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, "I really dare not especially when I am engaged to both your daughters already. Hahaha¡­"

    The maidens were all quite relieved to see that Ji Yuan was alright and he also had three men that were with him.

    Guo Taiming, Shen Qin and Li Ye were astonished to see that there were so many beautiful maidens who were all greeting Ji Yuan at the same time.

    Guo Taiming stammered as he saw Ling Feiyue, "If I am not mistaken, then you must be the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue?"

    Ling Feiyue merely returned a faint smile and asked, "Who are these 3 men?"

    Actually, she did recognize Shen Qin who had once plotted against her. So she was actually referring to the other two men.

    However, most of the maidens do not recognize Shen Qin or the other two men.

    Even Mo Bei and the White Sword Monarch also did not recognize them as they were Ji Yuan''s brothers.

    Ji Yuan quickly introduced them.

    "This is Guo Taiming, my brother from the Five Heavens Peak¡­ he may look weak but he is actually a sect leader¡­"

    Guo Taiming: ¡­

    I am weak?

    "This is Li Ye. He is an elder in my Emperor Hall Sect. Hahaha¡­"

    "And this is Shen Qin. He is the young master of the Astonishing Sword Manor¡­"

    Shen Qin interrupted with a smile, "I am also a middle-tier saint¡­"

    All of a sudden, he noticed that there was ack of interest and even disdain in the golden eyes of these maidens.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Young Master Shen Qin may be an unorthodox cultivator but he is also quite a generous man. Hahaha¡­"

    "Indeed, indeed." Shen Qinughed.

    Then he asked, "Brother Ji Yuan, why don''t you introduce them these maidens to me?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly: You guys still don''t know that they are my maidens? Stop dreaming of greening me. You guys have no chance at all.

    Indeed, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming were already goggling on the 11 maidens for they were some of the most extreme beauties around.

    Ling Feiyue was like a heavenly maiden and she seemed unnaturally heavenly and untainted by the mundane.

    Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were extremely mesmerizing.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was breathtaking divine and she appeared to be smiling at the one that was looking at her, conquering the hearts of the men that looked at her.

    The Lovely Empress was so lovely to look at and charming that men just can''t help failing in love with her.

    Shui Xisi was just too bewitching and enticing beautiful that she could enthrall the men easily.

    And many more.

    But when Ji Yuan introduced the maidens to his 3 brothers, they were left feeling awkward and ashamed that they have lost all courage to try to know these 11 beautiful maidens.

    "Great Saintess Ling Feiyue¡­"

    "Great Saintess Shui Xisi, Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce¡­"

    The Water Melody Pce is one of the three most powerful divine pces of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and the 3 brothers were all shocked that Shui Xisi is actually the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce.

    "Great Saintess Little Princess¡­"

    Shen Qin and Guo Taiming were stunned; isn''t Little Princess the Third Citadel Mistress of the Evil Cultivation Pce?

    Shen Qin had actually seen Little Princess before but he did not know her name or who she really was.

    Ji Yuan also introduced Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng as great saintess as he felt that it was unwise to reveal that they were immortals.

    All 11 of the maidens were all saintesses and more than half of them were great saintesses.

    Most of their cultivations were higher than Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming; this caused them to lose courage immediately and they did not dare to even look at these maidens.

    Ji Yuan also introduced Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and the White Sword Monarch to them.

    Both Mo Bei and White Sword Monarch are both great saints.

    Mo Bei bluntly asked, "Ji Yuan, your 3 brothers do not seem to have a high cultivation at all. I am surprised that they have actually dared to enter this trial portal with you."

    Shen Qin, Li Ye, Guo Taiming: ¡­

    They did not dare to say that they were actually hiding all this while in the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    Lastly, Ji Yuan told his 3 brothers. "These 11 maidens are all my consorts. So, don''t have any funny ideas on them."

    When Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming had heard Ji Yuan, they almost fainted from shock.

 Chapter 1121 JY, what is your Trial Reward?

    Chapter 1121 JY, what is your Trial Reward?

    With just a day remaining before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, all the trials were now closed or ended.

    Ji Yuan was thinking how he should bang all 11 of his maidens before everything had ended in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    However, what he was thinking was not what the 11 maidens were thinking.

    Rather, he was not alone with 1 maiden but 11 of them as they asked him curiously about his trial.

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly to Ji Yuan, "So, what did you obtain as your trial reward in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Care to share with us?"

    "Yea! Yeah! Yes¡­"

    "Did you get into any ranking?"

    All the maidens were curiously looking at Ji Yuan and they were all curious to know what Ji Yuan had obtained.

    Yun Chi appraised Ji Yuan, "Weird, why is that I feel that you are now stronger than thest time? You actually trained yourself while inside the Dark Abyssal Realm?"

    Bai Qianfeng was also asking, "I feel the same as well. Ji Yuan, there is something different in you now. Your air is totally different now."

    The two of them are immortals and they have superior divine senses; that is why they can sense the subtle changes in Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had indeed be stronger as he had ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to be a 9th realm half-immortal.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "He still looks the same to me. We shouldn''t try to paste gold on his face. Hehe¡­"

    Yu Jingjing giggled, "He probably got nothing else to do inside the trial portal so he started a fight with the abyssal cultivators."

    "He can cultivate in the Dark Abyssal Realm? As far as I know, celestial cultivators will not be able to cultivate in the Dark abyssal Realm unless they are lucky enough to find a ce that is rich in spiritual force energies." Feng Minyue asked as she curiously looked at Ji Yuan.

    When all the maidens started to talk together, Ji Yuan was at a loss to answer all their questions.

    At the same time, it brought him some time to think of his ''trial reward''; he dared not tell them that he had obtained a useless trial reward for being number 2 for this trial. Not only was this trial reward useless but he had chosen the Divine Salvation Eye because it was supposed to grant him the ability to see through walls and clothing. If his maidens know about this, even he got 10 lives, it was still not enough.

    His trial reward was supposed to be between the Great Longevity Scroll and the Divine Salvation Scroll. If he told them that he did not pick the Great Longevity Scroll and had instead picked the Divine Salvation Scroll, once again he had to die another 10 times.

    Ji Yuan felt that he was still too young and should enjoy the bosoms of his maidens for many more years.

    So, he had decided to cook up a story.

    He took out a cultivation slip and turned to Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden to say solemnly. "My trial reward is the half-immortal cultivation profound art. With this cultivation slip now, the 3 of you do not have to ascend to the immortal realm anymore nor will you need to face the wrath of the divine cmity. You will be able to cultivate to the 8th cultivation realm as half-immortal cultivators in the Celestial Realm."

    When Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden had heard Ji Yuan, they were all startled and quickly use their divine sense to examine the cultivation slip.

    Even the other maidens including Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were also doing the same.

    Yun Chi grasped, "This cultivation method is actually workable. Amazing."

    Ji Yuan exined to them, "I have also met a few 8th cultivation realm in the Dark Abyssal Realm so this is definitely workable."

    This cultivation slip was actually not his trial reward but he had obtained it from Juan Xian''Er just before he had left the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I actually have a choice in determining my trial reward but I have picked this as my trial reward even though I do not need it. But I know that Maidens Jiugong, Jiangsu and Lixue may have a use for it."

    Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all extremely touched as they looked emotionally and with great affections at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan grinned at them; now he could bang them and they would not resist, especially the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. Until now, he still had not banged her¡­

    As a matter of fact, she was the only maiden here that he had not yet banged.

    Bai Qianfeng quietly said, ''This is good¡­"

    Yun Chi suddenly smiled to Ji Yuan, "You know, Ji Yuan. I was so worried for you. Do you know that Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao is also in the trial as well?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Don''t worry about that. I''ve banged her already so she is my maiden¡­"

    Yun Chi hummed coldly, "You are just boasting. Be careful that your nose will grow longer. If she is your maiden then why isn''t she with you?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am speaking the truth?

    Yun Chi exined with a wry smile, "Other maidens, I can believe you but not her."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Why so?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "You have no idea how many powerful deste princes and half-gods have tried to court her over the thousands of years. To court her, they had deployed all kinds of tricks. Many had even tried patiently for hundreds to thousands of years but none of them has ever seeded. Do you think that I will believe that you can seed?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Maybe I am the special one?"

    When he had said that, Yun Chi and the other maidens were allughing jovially together.

    Their jovialughter had even drawn the attentions of Mo Bei, Qin Shuang, the White Monarch, Shen Qin, Li Ye and Guo Taiming who were nearby.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Ji Yuan,e tell us your adventures in the Dark Abyssal Realm!"

    Ji Yuan looked at Shui Xisi the maiden that he could bang whole day without stopping and she had always stirred his passions.

    "Maybeter¡­"

    Then he looked at Bai Qianfeng, "I''d like to spend some time with my Qianfeng first."

    When he had said that, all the maidens including Bai Qianfeng were all startled.

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "Qianfeng didn''t tell some of you that she has to return to the immortal realm, right? When the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has ended, is also the day that she has to return to the immortal realm. I¡­ like to say my farewell to her¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng lowered her eyes and many of the maidens were staring at her with shock.

    She tried to force a smile on her peerless countenance, "I had released my full cultivation realm while I was in the Demonic Divine Realm¡­"

    "Qianfeng released her cultivation realm to help me to obtain my immortal scabbard," Ji Yuan added for her as he said bitterly.

    He was actually quite heart broken that Bai Qianfeng would be leaving soon.

    In just a single day, he had already been heart broken several times by Ding Xiaoxiao, Xuan Qiaoqiao, Juan Xian''Er and Li Yifen.

    And soon, it would be Bai Qianfeng''s turn.

 Chapter 1122 Last Day with Bai Qianfeng

    Chapter 1122 Last Day with Bai Qianfeng

    It was just Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng that were in a cave now.

    The other maidens all understood that Ji Yuan had a lot of farewells to do with Bai Qianfeng so they left them to have their own private time.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were particr upset as they had been with Bai Qianfeng for a long time now.

    The Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all quite fond of this ''eldest prot¨¦g¨¦ sister'' that had taken their ce with mistress Yun Chi.

    The rest of the maidens were also quite upset as Bai Qianfeng was their strong pir throughout the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Yun Chi was left to sigh regretfully, "Somehow, the trial knows that we areing and knows our strength. If you have not released your cultivation strength, this wouldn''t have happened."

    But Bai Qianfeng did not regret it.

    She was only too d to be of help to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was now looking mncholy at Bai Qianfeng; without her by his side, he could not sleep well and he had been using her as his pillow.

    The two of them talked for a long time, recounting how they had first met and their journey together.

    Bai Qianfeng had wanted to kill Ji Yuan because he had thrown her out of her coffin as he thought that she was a dead maiden.

    So she sent a lighting divine cmity against Ji Yuan but ended up with a ve cor on herself when her attempts bacsh.

    After that, they had a series of adventures together and ended up in the Dream Trial for thousands of years.

    It was not wrong to say that Bai Qianfeng had been with Ji Yuan for the longest time as they had been in the Dream Trial for an entire life time. And this entire life time was thousands of years as cultivators live a long time.

    Since then, the two of them had developed a close and intimate rtionship with each other.

    Ji Yuan was very sad to see Bai Qianfeng go and he did not want her to leave for the immortal realm because it will be a long time before she can return.

    He asked her, "Do you think that you can descend again?"

    Bai Qianfeng answered him frankly, "I really don''t know."

    Then she exined to him that after an immortal had descended to a lower realm and returned, even if they have the profound treasures to do so, there will be a restriction to prevent them from descending again in a short notice.

    And 1 year in the immortal realm is like 10 years in the Celestial Realm.

    She told him that she has to wait at least 100 years to descend to the Celestial Realm again and that will be 1000 years for him.

    Ji Yuan was shocked.

    That means that he has to be separated from Bai Qianfeng for more than 1000 years.

    Ji Yuan was further heart broken.

    Bai Qianfeng tried tofort him, "You have so many maidens with you. Maybe 1000 yearster, you may have forgotten about me. Then it will be so awkward to see you again¡­"

    "No, I won''t forget my Qianfeng!" Ji Yuan interrupted her firmly.

    Ji Yuan suddenly asked her, "If we are unable to defeat the Great Demon God and remove the powerful arrays that he has set, does it mean that no immortals will be allowed to descend to the Celestial Realm?"

    Bai Qianfeng nodded slowly, "That''s right. You can only go up but not down."

    The Great Demon God had waited for the space time rift from the Nine Heavens Realm to open when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had descended to ce his powerful profound arrays on the great rift.

    Although the Great Demon God still had not fully regained his profound strength to the half-step True Divinity, he had decided to activate his ns instead of waiting for 10 000 years more.

    One must know that it is not easy for the Great Demon God to regain the use of his 9th realm cultivations strength freely, having been in the Celestial Realm for several thousands of years.

    The keyword here is the word ''freely used''.

    Because the Great Demon God is able to release his cultivation realm anytime but will be forced to depart from the Celestial Realm.

    The Great Demon God also had plenty of 9th realm immortals with him but most of them were unable to regain the use of their 9th cultivation strength as fast as the Great Demon God.

    The Great Heavenly Dao has ced its restrictive heavenly dao upon the middle realm and restricted it to the peak of the 7th realm cultivation. Once a cultivator is ready to ascend to the immortal realm, they may be allowed to invoke the Immortal Heavenly Wrath at which they will fight against the heavens to be an immortal.

    Failures will mean death instantly.

    And when golden celestial has perished, there is a chance that their golden skeletons will be further condensed into a heavenly relic in which divine weapons can be forged with.

    So it is not exaggerating to say that the celestial cultivation sects with plenty of divine weapons are also the ones with the most failures.

    The rate of a sessful ascension is never more than 20% usually.

    So most of the celestial cultivators would not attempt it unless they had really reached the end of their half-immortal life span.

    Their cultivation life span depends on the type of lightning tribtions that they had ovee when they are middle saints.

    Many middle saints actually did not survive to be a great saint as the lightning cmity usually kill 66% of the saint cultivators.

    That is why many of the middle saints dread the lightning cmity and tried not to invoke the wrath of the lightning cmity by choosing to cultivate quietly or even slowing down when they are almost at the peak of the middle saint cultivation realm.

    Bai Qianfeng looked woefully as she said to Ji Yuan, "I am worried for you. What if you can''t ovee the Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan was immediately spirited, "Don''t worry, Qianfeng. I am now at the upper 9th realm cultivation. Haha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng frowned, "The same as me? Ji Yuan, stop joking with me¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly released his profound aura and startling Bai Qianfeng.

    A shocked Bai Qianfeng asked Ji Yuan, "This¡­ you have ovee the Immortal Heavenly Wrath to be an immortal? But you shouldn''t be here and shouldn''t be allowed to disy such a powerful cultivation realm. How is it possible?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "I don''t know too. Maybe I was inspired by my Greater Dao of the Heavens which was myst trial reward."

    Bai Qianfeng inhaled softly, "I actually thought that you are joking about your reward for yourst trial. But it seems that it may be true after all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Ji Yuan. Please allow me to examine your profound animus." Bai Qianfeng said quietly.

    "Alright."

    After a while, Bai Qianfeng said quietly. "Just as I''ve thought. It is almost the same as the cultivations slip that you have given to my junior sisters. You are not a full immortal but a half-immortal. Although you are still able to use your cultivation strength to the 9th realm cultivation but it is severely limited as you are not a true immortal."

    Ji Yuanughed, "As long as I can finish my immortal opponents while I still can exercise my profound strength, it is alright."

    Bai Qianfeng nodded slowly, "You are a Sword Deity so you may have your advantages. If you are a power cultivator or some other types of cultivators, you have no chance against the Great Demon God."

    "Qianfeng, I got something to show you as well." Ji Yuan said solemnly.

    Then he had disyed his true divinity ck sword and showed it to her.

    "This is a true divinity sword?! How did you obtain it?"

    Bai Qianfeng gasped again when she had suddenly recognized this ck sword, "Isn''t this the same sword that we saw when we were in the Goddess Star Pce? Howe it is with you?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I did tell you and Yun Chi that this ck sword had entered into my soul sea back then but you don''t believe me."

    Bai Qianfeng smiled weakly.

    At that time she was with Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu. But the 4 maidens did not believe that Ji Yuan was attacked by the ck sword of the True Devil God.

    Ji Yuan exined, "Well, I have finally managed to dig this ck sword from my soul sea now. Hahaha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng shook her head, "This is a true divinity sword. It will be quite hard for you to wield it. Moreover, it is the true divinity sword of the True Devil God. Ji Yuan, what have you been hiding from me?"

    Ji Yuan did not want to hide anything from Bai Qianfeng as she would be leaving soon. So he admitted to her that he had got the acknowledgement of this true divinity sword when he was at the Nightfall Heights.

    Then he said awkwardly, "Well, I think that I am the incarnate of the True Devil God himself. Hahaha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng was greatly astonished and she was also looking quite relieved now, "With this true divinity sword then we have a good chance of defeating the Great Demon God."

    She was feeling quite depressedtely as she would miss the fight between Ji Yuan and the Great Demon God.

    Many of the maidens would probably also die in the battle and she was helpless to aid them.

    Bai Qianfeng appraised Ji Yuan as she smiled faintly, "It isn''t that bad to fall into the hands of a rascal like you then."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am a rascal? Then I show you what is a little rascal¡­"

    With that, Ji Yuan and Bai Qianfeng began to roll on the ground as they kissed each other passionately.

    Ji Yuan transformed into a beast of a man as he was determined to make hisst day with Bai Qianfeng into an unforgettable bang, bang.

 Chapter 1123 The Divine Cultivation Palace

    Chapter 1123 The Divine Cultivation Pce

    The Celestial Realm, in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    In a mountainous de.

    A mortal cultivator had just ovee the Divine Cmity Tribtion and he had just ascended to the Celestial Realm.

    He was feeling quite excited as he stepped foot in the Celestial Realm for the very first time as an initial 5th realm golden celestial.

    In the mortal realm, he was at the Great Ascension level.

    The mortal cultivator was actually an old man in the mortal realm when he had ascended and he saw that he had actually be younger and was now a middle aged man.

    Seeing his rejuvenated looks, he was delighted.

    His name was Wang Bashan and in the mortal realm, he was the patriarch of arge cultivation sect.

    "This is the Celestial Realm? The spiritual force auras in this ce are 100 times better than where I''m from. This is too awesome. Hahahaha. I am finally a celestial now! Hohohoho!"

    "I need to find a celestial sect to join and to find out about the cultivation realms in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "I wonder what the name of this ce?"

    "I have heard that the celestial maidens are all extremely beautiful and they are all nourished by the rich spiritual force energies of the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "It is time to look for a dao cultivation partner at the same time too¡­"

    "I''m loving the Celestial Realm even though this is my first time here¡­"

    "I am an Ascended Celestial so I may be stronger than most of the same realm cultivators from this ce. Back in the mortal realm, I had fought more than 3000 big and small battles with the rival cultivation sects and had also fought against many profound beasts¡­"

    "I am truly the blessed son of the heavens in order to ascend sessful¡­"

    Wang Bashan soon spotted a vige in the mountain and he walked in boldly while maintaining a friendly grin.

    When the vigers saw him, they were all frightened and cowered away.

    Wang Bashan saw that these vigers were all dressed in a simple robe. Also they did not have golden eyes and had weak cultivation realms so it was naturally that they feared a mighty golden celestial like him.

    He thought: There is actually so many mortals in the Celestial Realm. Rather than saying that they are mortals, they should all be some low level cultivators instead that are not pressed into service by the nearby celestial sect. It seems that the Celestial Realm has plenty of high level cultivators. I ought to exercise a little vignt or they will think that I am good to bully¡­"

    Then he had suddenly remembered something: This reminds me that I ought to ask these vigers for directions to the nearby celestial sect. No, I ought to ask them for information on the top celestial sects instead. After all, I am an Ascended Celestial and I deserve to be in the best celestial sect¡­

    Just as he was about to enter the vige, he had spotted three beautiful maidens that were walking in his direction and he was astonished at their beauty and their revealing clothing.

    All three maidens were a golden celestium robe that looked more like an armor that protected their modesty that just covered their bosoms and they got a flimsy short skirt that just covered their crotch.

    Wang Basha could see that all 3 of them were not wearing any panties and they were all golden celestials; it was because when they walked toward him, he could see their white thighs clearly and it extended to their bare waists.

    He immediately thought: Is this the way the beautiful maiden cultivators dressed themselves? This Celestial Realm is too awesome! s, I am a respected Taoist in the lower mortal and I shouldn''t have let this moved my dao heart. This is really too sinful. But maybe I should consider joining a dual cultivation sect first. After I have screwed enough of the celestial maidens than I will turn over a new leaf and continue on my cultivation to be a lofty cultivator in the Celestial Realm. Maybe I can even screw the more beautiful celestial goddesses in the Celestial Realm as well¡­"

    The celestial maiden in front immediately drawn her heaven-step divine sword as did the two maidens behind her and said coldly, "Who is this golden celestial? How dare you show yourself alone. Are you courting your own death!"

    She had extended her profound voice to Wang Bashan who was still at a considerable distance.

    Wang Bashan immediately said with great politeness as he mustered his profound strength to answer her, "s! Wait, celestial maidens! I am an Ascended Celestial that have just arrived at the Celestial Realm and is looking for direction to join the nearest celestial cultivation sect. Maybe you can guide me a little?"

    The celestial maiden in front halted her attack stance and curiously asked, "Really? You are an Ascended Celestial?"

    Wang Baishan smiled as he stared lecherously at their beautiful figures and jaded white skin, "That''s right. My name is Wang Bashan. I wonder how I should address the three of you?"

    The celestial maiden in front smiled, "So you are Celestial Wang Bashan. I am a sixth realm cultivator so you may address me as Supremacy Lian Yuji. The other two celestial maidens are my close sisters andpanions, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei."

    Wang Bashan immediately greeted them, "My respects to Supremacy Lian, Celestial Qianye and Celestial Liu Yimei here."

    Supremacy Lian Yuji asked him curiously but at the same time her golden eyes and divine sense were looking at the surroundings, "You really don''t know who we are?"

    Wang Bashanughed jovially, "I have never seen any maidens that are more beautiful than the three of you in the mortal realm. I wonder if I have the honor to join your celestial sect to advance my cultivation?"

    Qianye Baiyue had taken out a profound stone and whispered to Lian Yuji: We have almost all the known golden celestials in the Deste Celestial Realm. So it may be true that he is an Ascended Celestial. Moreover, he looks a little silly too.

    Supremacy Lian Yuji immediately smiled to Wang Bashan, "Actually, our celestial sect is always opened to strong cultivators like you."

    When Wang Bashan heard her, he was greatly delighted.

    Supremacy Lian Yujiughed softly, "Alright then. Come with us to our celestial sect. However, our base isn''t on the mountains but on a floating profound ship instead."

    Wang Bashan was astonished, "A floating profound ship? A legendary floating profound ship?!"

    Liu Yimei giggled softly as she whispered to Qianye Baiyue and Lian Yuji: I think he isn''t faking it. He is like a country bumpkin.

    Qianye Baiyue whispered: Look at the way he is staring at us. He can''t wait to rip off our clothing.

    Supremacy Lian Yuji giggled softly, "Come with us back to our celestial sect then. Then we will introduce you to our master."

    Wang Bashan was delighted. "I wonder if I may join under the same cultivation master as the three seniors?"

    Supremacy Lian Yujiughed softly, "Of course you can."

    Wang Bashan was even more delighted, "I wonder how should I address the cultivation master when I see him?"

    Supremacy Lian Yuji giggled softly, "Him? It is a she. Hehe."

    This caused Wang Bashan to be even more delighted; these 3 celestial maidens were already so beautiful and their cultivation mistress should also be extremely beautiful. He was already thinking of screwing their cultivation mistress already.

    "You may just call her as Number 2."

    Wang Bashan was puzzled, "Number 2?"

    Supremacy Lian Yuji smiled, "She prefers to be called Number 2 instead of her real name. It won''t be disrespectful if you call her number 2."

    Wang Bashan nodded with great delight as he thought: Number 2 has many meanings. It may mean that she is number 2 in position to have the right to be called number 2. Or she can even be the number 2 most beautiful maiden in the entire Celestial Realm¡­"

    While he was thinking about this, Qianye Baiyue whispered to Lian Yuji and Liu Yimei: I don''t mind taking him personally if he is that Ji Yuan but he is so ugly. So it is only right that we give him to Number 2 Murong Yue for her to y with in exchange for some rewards.

    Liu Yimei was also giggling softly and there was a coyly look on her: I don''t mind if he is Ji Yuan too. He is just so beautiful.

    Qianye Baiyue giggled: I can surrender my body to Ji Yuan any time too...

    Lian Yuji frowned as she interrupted them: Stop daydreaming. Sword Saint Ji Yuan is our enemy when the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth have ended. You have no chance against the 4 great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­

    She was suddenly interrupted by Wang Bashan.

    He had asked, "May I know the name of the respected celestial sect that I''ll be joining?"

    Lian Yuji turned to smile at him, "We are from the Divine Cultivation Pce."

    She had changed the name of the Evil Cultivation Pce to the Divine Cultivation Pce.

    The 3 of them were patrolling the vicinity for the sight of any opposing celestials.

    The reason why the vigers were showing great fear when they first saw Wang Bashan was because they had thought that he was from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    In their vige, most of the good looking men and maidens had long been taken away by the Evil Cultivation Pce to be used as their depraved harlots and helots.

    Wang Bashanughed jovially, "The Divine Cultivation Pce. What a good name! What an excellent name!"

    From this point onward, he is going to walk to the peak of his cultivation life and be the strongest cultivator in the Divine Cultivation Pce!

    By that, he also meant to conquer the skirts of all the beautiful celestial maidens in the Divine Cultivation Pce as well!

    Supremacy Lian Yuji smiled to him and said, "Come, follow us."

    And they had turned around and Wang Bashan was able to see their beautiful white bare rounded buttocks that were thinly veiled only by a thin transculent thong that was in-between their butts.

    Wang Bashan was only too delighted to follow them and he was already dreaming how he should make the best impression of this Number 2 and then to seduce her to the peak of his future cultivation.

 Chapter 1124 Countdown by the Evil Cultivation Palace

    Chapter 1124 Countdown by the Evil Cultivation Pce

    At the Pentecost Mountains of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, where the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is located.

    The monstrous floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce floated stationary above it, apanied by nearly two hundred floating profound ships.

    The gigantic shape of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth in the heavens were slowly fading away and there was still half a day before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Themon cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity were all hoping that their ordeal would quickly end when the powerful golden celestials of the Deste Celestial Fraternity would finally return.

    However, there was also a risk that not all the golden celestials would return to oppose the Evil Cultivation God and the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    It was because fully 1/5 of the most powerful celestial sects have actually chosen to side with the Evil Cultivation Pce and as many as 1/3 may have chosen to side with the Evil Cultivation Pce

    Even for the same celestial sect, the elders and leaders were split; it quickly led to a great division as the cultivators from the same cultivators began to fight against each other.

    Those that sided with the Evil Cultivation Pce were allowed to remain in the open and had positions of great power while those that opposed the Evil Cultivation Pce were forced to go into hiding as the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity werepletely taken by the Evil Cultivation Pce and its allies.

    The main reason why the Evil Cultivation God was still in the vicinity of the Pentecost Mountains was because the deceased Saintess Fang Zhenfei had be a symbol of resistance against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    It was not just the true cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity that were fighting the Evil Cultivation Pce but also themon cultivators as well.

    Even the orthodox and unorthodox cultivators were united in their resistance against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    For the past several weeks, the rebellious cultivators had been erecting stone statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei all over the Pentecost Mountains.

    Naturally the statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei were all removed quite rapidly once it was found.

    Their actions had greatly displeased the Evil Cultivation God.

    So the Evil Cultivation God ordered his cultivators to seal off all the viges and the struggling cultivation sect at the Pentecost Mountains. As long as the cultivators were willing to spat at the naked andpromising statues of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei that the Evil Cultivation Pce had erected in all the ces, then the cultivators would be given food and water.

    This caused a little problem for the 4th realm cultivators that can endure hunger and thirst. And to the 5th realm cultivators and above, it was not a problem since golden celestials did not have to eat or drink.

    However, for most of the cultivators that were left behind in the Pentecost Mountains, they were all below the 5th realm cultivation and this became a real issue.

    Also, if the cultivators were willing to desecrate the naked statue of Fang Zhenfei that was erected in variouspromising positions, they would be given 3 days of ration.

    As to how to desecrate the naked statue of Fang Zhenfei, it was to do unspeakable acts to her statue and it was too unspeakable to be mentioned.

    The Evil Cultivation God also ordered all the beautiful maidens at the Pentecost Mountains to be taken away to turn them into depraved harlots of the evil cultivators of the Evil cultivation Pce.

    As for those cultivators that were hiding in the mountains, legions of cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce and her alliesbed the mountains on a daily basis.

    Most of the mortal cultivators that were left behind by the various viges and cultivation sects were actually the weak, pacifists, the old or the invalid.

    And they were left behind to suffer the wrath of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Although there were many weak, old and invalid in the numerous viges and celestial cultivation sects but they could not forget the kindness of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei when she was alive and they refused to spit or to desecrate her status.

    Rather, many of them took great risks to cover the naked statue of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei either with flowers or a cloak.

    There were also many cultivators that were hiding in the mountains and they were furious that the Evil Cultivation Pce would dishonor their Saintess Fang Zhenfei in such a manner and this only increases their resolve to fight against the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    One must know that while the Saintess Fang Zhenfei was the celestial sect leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect was also 1 of the 7 major orthodox celestial sects in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Therefore, the entire the Pentecost Mountains and its immediatelynds were actually the holynd of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Even though the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect was the smallest of the orthodox celestial sect but it stillmanded over a hundred celestial cultivation sects in its holynd. And many of the cultivation sects were fiercely loyal to the Saintess Fang Zhenfei as she was a highly regarded saintess.

    And her prestige had increased further after she had killed the Deste Dragon God, one of the True Gods of the Deste Immortal Realm.

    Also, her prestige and the esteem that the cultivators in her holynd and elsewhere had for her, did not decrease with her death.

    There were dozens of fighting all over the Pentecost Mountains on a daily basis as the cultivators in hiding fought against the Evil Cultivation Pce from their hideouts in the mountains. Also, they were further aided by the cultivators from the other regions.

    However, the fighting was quite small scale as none of them dare to openly challenge the might of the Evil Cultivation Pce directly.

    The Evil Cultivation God was in his throne room with the Goddess Alyssa when he had just received word that a scout ship that was sent to the Five Heavens Peaks hadpletely disappeared.

    He frowned at this report, "It is too weird that an entire profound ship just disappeared like this¡­"

    Even though this profound ship was not from the Evil Cultivation Pce, but it was also impossible for it to disappear just like this. (See Chapter 1026 when Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei brought down an entire profound ship).

    It was because the Evil Cultivator God had put at least 10 cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce in all the profound ships and there were also several incognito cultivators that were mixed among the lowly cultivators too.

    Also, he had made sure that there were at least 5 different cultivation sects in every profound ship to prevent a mutiny.

    Therefore, something mysteriously at happened to that profound ship.

    The Goddess Alyssa said thoughtfully, "It is too sudden. That profound ship under Saint Cao Anhuan may have met with an ambush by the rebels. We should send more profound ships to that region to investigate it more."

    The Evil Cultivation God shook his head, "No. With just half a day more before the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, we can''t spare any more cultivators. Rather, I want our cultivators to ambush the golden celestials that will be returning."

    He said coldly, "Convey my decree. We shall depart in 2 hours'' time for the mountains where the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is. If these golden celestials do not submit to us, then they shall all die."

    The Goddess Alyssa nodded, "Alright then."

    The Evil Cultivation God said gloomily, "Also have Number 2 Murong Yue to be ready to confront the Death God Mingwang and Number 1. If they do not join us, then don''t me us for allowing Number 2 to kill them."

    But he soon lit a cold smile, "I will soon see my son Yin Wei and Little Princess again. Muhahaha¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    In the dark chamber of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Number 2 Murong Yue was happily toying with Wang Bashan as she copted with him and to suck his yang vitality.

    Wang Bashan was horrified as he got abused violently by this monster Number 1 that was more monster than the beautiful celestial goddess that he had imagined.

    All his initial happiness for the Celestial Realm had vanished, only to be reced by sheer horror as he was turned into a depraved male harlot of his ''cultivation mistress''.

    His expectations to climb the peak of cultivation had all disappeared as he got ravaged endlessly by Number 2.

    Number 2 was delighted as she hissed, "This¡­ Ascended¡­ Celestial is¡­ good¡­ very tough¡­ better than my old toys¡­"

    Her sharp talons broke the face of Wang Bashan as she hissed further, "If you¡­ serve me well¡­ I won''t mistreat you¡­ if you serve me well, I may even give you¡­ one of the beautiful Numbers¡­ to y with¡­ even Number 1¡­"

 Chapter 1125 Farewell to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    Chapter 1125 Farewell to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth

    In the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan had actually spent all his time with Bai Qianfeng as he chatted with her, invoking all their memories together.

    A profound voice had suddenly thundered in the skies above them, "There is still thirty minutes before all of you will be expulsed by the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and return to your celestial fraternities in the Celestial Realm. It is forbidden to share your experiences in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth or else there will be a severe bacsh to your cultivation core. Remember this!"

    With a reluctant heart, Ji Yuan departed with Bai Qianfeng from the cave and returned to his group.

    When he had returned to his group, the other 10 maidens were all crowding around Bai Qianfeng to bid their farewells to her.

    "This good-for-nothing Ji Yuan, he only left us with less than 30mins to say our farewells to Qianfeng." Ling Feiyue hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuanughed, "Feiyue, you ought to raise your voice louder if you want to scold me or else I would think that you want to encourage me instead."

    "Step aside, Ji Yuan!" Shui Xisi pushed him away.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yu Jingjing giggled, "Ji Yuan, you are not a maiden so go away. Stop crowding around us."

    "Maybe he wants to try to do some fishing on us. He is really lecherous," the Lovely Empress suggested.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck do you know?

    Seeing all 11 maidens swinging their butts in front of him was too much to bear even for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan reluctantly left the jovial chatters of the maidens as he got no room to interrupt their farewells for Qianfeng.

    So he approached the other group that consisted of Guo Taiming, Li Ye, Shen Qin, the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei and Qin Shuang. "Everyone, it is our farewells soon."

    The White Sword Monarch said to Ji Yuan, "Little rascal! We will be returning to our own celestial fraternity soon and there is something that I want to talk with you about!"

    Then he added, "Let''s talk alone first."

    With that, he had walked off and Ji Yuan soon followed him.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Old man, what is it?"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned, "Shouldn''t you call me your master before I departed?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "But this is the way that I have always called you."

    But he quickly said, "Oh well, Master Old man."

    The White Sword Monarch: ¡­

    "You are really a little rascal!"

    But he was soonughing jovially as he patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder and was saying solemnly, "My daughter Yang Mi and the Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing will be returning with me to our celestial fraternity. Be sure toe for them!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he suddenly turned around to look in the direction where Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were at.

    He hadpletely forgotten about this!

    Bai Qianfeng was not the only maiden that would be leaving him.

    He stammered, "They didn''t remind me¡­"

    The White Sword Monarchughed jovially, "They didn''t remind you because they don''t want their partings with you to overshadow Maiden Qianfeng. And they know that it will be a temporary parting and you will surely go to their fraternity to look for them one day. Also, Yang Mi will be returning to my celestial sect so what is there for you to worry?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "I am a little worry that Jingjing may not be able to handle Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping when she got back. It is forbidden to mention about the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and so it is the Grand Matriarch''s words versus Jingjing''s words."

    The White Sword Monarch said casually, "Don''t worry about this. I will protect Maiden Jingjing so that she would note to harm. That is one of the reasons why I am taking Yang Mi back with me first. I will pay a visit to the Holy Oracle Sect to exin things as best as possible. Worsee to worse, I will take in Maiden Jingjing to my own celestial sect¡­"

    Then he said wryly, "But then, that wicked Xi Jingping should still be in Bliss City and she may not want to leave that degenerate ce."

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "You never know. In the Holy Oracle Sect, she can turn all her prot¨¦g¨¦s into depraved maidens and she has absolute power there. So it is better to take some precautions. I got a feeling that this won''t be thest time that I''ll be seeing her. My suggestion is not to do any exining but take Jingjing away first for her own protection."

    The White Sword Monarch took a intense look at Ji Yuan before saying, "Little rascal, it seems that you have grown wiser over the years."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "It is just that the hearts of the evil cultivators are just too treacherous and over the years, I''ve met several of them."

    The White Sword Monarch looked at the 11 beautiful maidens that were nearby and frowned, "Treacherous indeed. But you are the most treacherous because you have bagged all 11 of them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The White Sword Monarch stroked his long beard before asking, "You know. There is something that is still bugging me for quite some time."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What is it?"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned, "It is about Maiden Yun Chi. She is too mysterious to me. Maiden Qianfeng is an immortal cultivator and she is quite close to her. Does it mean that she is also an immortal cultivator? Also, why are my other daughter Chu Lixue so close to her as well? Also, she has so many golden talismans that it seems inexhaustible. Do you care to tell me who she really is?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually you do know the answer to that already, am I right?"

    The White Sword Monarchughed weakly, "But I want you to tell me directly."

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Then you must promise me not to attack her."

    The White Sword Monarch said awkwardly, "I think I am not her match¡­"

    But he quickly said, "Alright. I promise you that I won''t attack her."

    Ji Yuanughed, "She is the Death God Mingwang. Hahaha¡­"

    The White Sword Monarch suddenly sighed with a great relief, "So Maiden Yun Chi is really the Death God Mingwang. Although I had thought of that before but it stilles to me as a surprise."

    Ji Yuan asked, "What else do you think she really is then?"

    The White Sword Monarch frowned, "I''ve thought that she was the daughter of the Death God Mingwang and you had banged her."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I''ve also thought that she may be the consort of the Death God Mingwang and you had banged his consort too." The White Sword Monarch further pointed out.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "And I''ve also thought that she may be the mother consort of the Death God Mingwang too¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Go and die, old man!"

    The White Sword Monarchughed jovially as he patted his pot belly, "You little rascal¡­"

    All of a sudden, a profound voice from the heavens echoed deeply. "You will all be taken back to your celestial fraternities now¡­"

    Ji Yuan panicky shouted loudly in the direction of the 11 maidens, "Qianfeng! Yang Mi, Jingjing! Farewell! We shall all meet again!"

    Yu Jingjing giggled to Yang Mi, "He has finally remembered us¡­"

    Yang Mi nodded shyly, "Farewell, Ji Yuan¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng woefully looked in the direction of Ji Yuan. "My lord Ji Yuan¡­ and Xiang Li farewell¡­ also Anyang¡­"

    Xiang Li was crying in Ji Yuan''s soul sea as she waved her farewell to Bai Qianfeng as well.

    Anyang muttered: Farewell, beautiful Qianfeng¡­

    Suddenly, there were multiple shes of light that instantaneously took everyone away.

    Author Note:

    1. This finally marks the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth''s story arc.

 Chapter 1126 The Return to the Celestial Realm

    Chapter 1126 The Return to the Celestial Realm

    There were actually 3rge temporary settlements at the mountainous region where the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had descended.

    However, when it was time for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to end, the celestial cultivators would be scattered all over the vast mountainous region that covered several hundreds of miles.

    So, no one really know the returning celestial cultivators would be spawning.

    However, one thing was for sure and it was that the Evil Cultivation Pce had long ced hundreds of deadly formations in this region to trap all the returning celestial cultivators.

    At the hour when the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth wouldpletely dematerialize, the floating citadel pce of the Evil Cultivation Pce and some 150 other profound ships had arrived in the region.

    On the ground, some 500 thousand cultivators that were aligned with the Evil Cultivation Pce had also gathered.

    These cultivators consisted of the numerous celestial sects that had defected to the Evil Cultivation Pce and they were all wearing ck cloaks.

    Although 500 thousand cultivators were arge army of cultivators but only 30 000 of them were golden celestials.

    The returning golden celestials were actually estimated to be between 30 000 to 60 000 out of some 120 000 golden celestials that had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Although there were many golden celestials that were returningpared to the golden celestials that were on the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce but many of them were actually at the 5th realm cultivation and they could be easily be killed by the deploying the numerous weaker cultivators against them.

    The number of saints were the one that could strongly determine the oue of this forting battle and it was to the advantage of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    A fierce battle awaits the returning golden celestials.

    The profound voice of the Evil Cultivation God echoed deeply throughout the vicinity, "The hour of total domination has finallye! Kill those that dares to oppose us. If they defect to us, then grant them our protection!"

    Among the returning golden celestials, there would be many of them that would also put on the ck cloak as they had already switched their allegiances to the Evil Cultivation Pce. And of course, there were also many cultivators that were from the Evil Cultivation Pce that were mixed with the returning golden celestials as well.

    The Evil Cultivation God, the Goddess Alyssa and Number 2 Murong Yue were scanning their divine sense that was enhanced by the gigantic citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce; their objectives were clear but it was not Ji Yuan.

    Rather, they were more interested to locate Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and the Death God Mingwang.

    Also, numerous powerful profound cannons from the 150 profound ships were also trained on the ground, ready to disy its bombardments.

    The profound power of these profound cannons was actually stronger than most 7th realm profound attacks and therefore, even a golden saint would find it hard to resist.

    A perfect ambush and a perfect storm now awaited the returning golden celestials.

    Soon multiple shes of light began to rain down on the mountains, numbering an astonishing 50 000 beams of light.

    This means that there were some 50 000 survivors for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    As soon as Ji Yuan hadnded, he was astonished to find himself surrounded by numerous ck cloak cultivators.

    There were several more golden celestials that had also appeared nearby as well.

    As a rule, the returning golden celestials were all separated by a mile from one another, simr to the end of the trial that was in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Although Ji Yuan was surprised to find himself surrounded by numerous ck cloaked cultivators and tamed profound beasts but he was not totally surprised.

    It was because he had already been warned by Yun Chi that he may be expecting a battle when he returned to the Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan however was not expecting a battle but he was expecting his Jiajia to wee him instead and not a weing party by the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    "Where is my Jiajia? And the rest of my other maidens?"

    Ji Yuan saw that there was arge citadel that was above him that were apanied by dozens ofrge profound ships.

    The sheer size of thisrge floating citadel stunned Ji Yuan for it was bigger than even his Emperor Hall Sect!

    Even therge profound ships were quite small in front of thisrge floating citadel and there were several more dozen profound ships that were docking next to thisrge floating citadel.

    "What the heck is that floating citadel¡­"

    Ji Yuan gasped out with a startled look before he muttered, "That is where the Great Demon God is?"

    He had a really bad feeling now as he panicky looked at his vicinity; it was because the sheer numbers of the ck cloaked cultivatorspletely astonished Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was not the only ones that were feeling astonished.

    Many of the returning golden celestials were all gasping with shock.

    "What is going on?"

    "We are being surrounded?"

    "I see the emblem of the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "Isn''t this my elder? Why is he wearing a ck cloak and is standing next to the banner of the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    "Some of the returning golden celestials are putting on a ck cloak? Is this the new fashion or what?"

    "What the hell is going on here?"

    "There is no weing party?"

    Ji Yuan had already brandished a heaven-step divine sword from 1 of his 9 flying divine swords; he did not want to draw Little Yui out first as a true divinity sword would draw the attention of everyone.

    This was true for his two emperor-step divine swords as well but currently his 2 emperor-step divine swords were damaged and were repairing itself.

    Divine swords are actually indestructible even if cracked. As long as the sword core of the divine swords are not cracked, they will be able to restore themselves.

    So Ji Yuan was not particrly worried for the loss of his two emperor-step swords for the time being and moreover, he could still wield Little Yui to be his substitute sword.

    Ji Yuan was actually not looking at his opponents that were surrounding him from all sides but he was using his formidable divine sense to look for Ding Xiaoxiao, Yun Chi and other maidens of his. But to his disappointment, there were too many ragged cliffs and he could not see beyond the horizons of the mountains.

    Also, he seemed to be struck in a valley too.

    He was a little panicky for his maidens and his brothers now.

    A booming and thunderous oppressing voice was soon hearding from the floating citadel.

    "Wee back to the Celestial Realm¡­"

    The oppressing aura of this booming voice was from the Evil Cultivation God and an upper 9th realm cultivation profound might was being disyed, startling most of the cultivators.

    "9th realm?! How is it possible?!"

    The booming and powerful oppressing profound voiceughed coldly as the Evil Cultivation God echoed, "You must be wondering who I am. I am the Evil Cultivation God, formerly the Evil Cultivation Master of the Evil Cultivation Pce. I am now speaking to you from my Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "¡­ know that you are now surrounded by hundreds of the killing arrays of the Evil Cultivation Pce and my profound ships¡­"

    "You have only 1 option. Lay down your arms and surrender or simply die¡­"

    "¡­ Know that I will be exceptional generous to the beautiful celestial maidens and if you surrender to me, I''ll even give you a good position in my Evil Cultivation Pce¡­ Muhahaha¡­"

    "¡­ I''ve forgotten to tell all of you a piece of good news. The entire Deste Celestial Fraternity is now united under the Evil Cultivation Pce. Therefore, you can only surrender or die. So, don''t be na?ve and expect any help to deliver yourself from this cmity this year¡­"

    Many of the golden celestial were muttering that they did not want to die and they had lost courage immediately especially when they saw that some of the cultivators were the ones that they had known.

    "¡­ Also, from now onward, there won''t the 3 forbidden pces anymore. That is because I''ve wiped out the Hundred Flower Divine Pce and the Water Melody Pce. Muhahaha¡­"

    "¡­ And also, the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce is actually the Saintess Fang Zhenfei. But she is dead now. Muhahaha¡­."

    All of a sudden, JI Yuan was in a daze and he was staring with great disbelief: What?!!! Jiajia is dead? This is impossible. She is so strong¡­ this is impossible¡­

    But in front of a 9th realm cultivator, Ji Yuan knows that she was still too weak.

    Elsewhere, many of the returning golden celestials were also shocked by this news as they did not know that Saintess Fang Zhenfei was actually the Divine Pce Master of the Hundred Flowers Divine Pce.

    Shui Xisi who was elsewhere was also in a daze like Ji Yuana s she muttered, "This is impossible. My beloved sister is dead?!"

    The thunderous and oppressing powerful profound voice of the Evil Cultivation God continued coldly, "This message is for the Death God Mingwang and Number 1. The Great Demon God is no more because I have reced him. Therefore, you can consider switching your loyalties to me instead. Muhahaha¡­ if you have the courage, why note to my Evil Cultivation Pce for a little talk?"

    Ji Yuan was not paying any attention to thest message as he was shocked by his beloved Jiajia''s death as he muttered with disbelief, "Jiajia, you promise me to be my consort after the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Why didn''t you keep your promise to me? Have you forgotten about our pledge?"

 Chapter 1127 One Incense to consider your Fate

    Chapter 1127 One Incense to consider your Fate

    The oppressing profound voice of the Evil Cultivation God echoed, "All of you got only one incense time to consider whether you want to surrender or to fight with the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan was not paying any attention anymore and he was gripping his sword in anger.

    However, something else had forced him to reconsider flying up to the Evil Cultivation Pce to confront the Evil Cultivation God first; it was the safety of the rest of his maidens.

    He had to get his maidens to safety first before he avenged the deaths of his Jiajia and the rest of his other maidens.

    He did not think that the Evil Cultivation Pce would spare Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shui Qingqing and Saintess Yuxian for they were all the prominent celestial cultivators of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Although Ji Yuan was at boiling point now but he still retained his sanity.

    It was also at this moment that the gigantic Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, that of a gigantic statue of the Great God Pangu had alsopletely disappeared from the heavens.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly felt a jolt in his soul sea as a gently voice echoed in his inner spiritual sea, "As promise, I shall lend you my artefact soul core."

    The gentle voice had also jolted Xiang Li, Anyang, Aura and Little Yui.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea was also fully restored when his inner spiritual sea was jolted suddenly.

    Ji Yuan was astonished: So I have the artefact core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now?

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan could feel the profound pressure of a powerful array that had been activated in the valley.

    This formidable array could cause all the cultivators within its radius to slow down and made it even harder for the cultivators to muster their profound strength, even the 7th realm cultivators.

    However, it won''t have any effect on Ji Yuan even if he restricted himself to the 7th realm cultivation as his real cultivation enables him to ignore the restrictions that were ced by the profound array.

    Ji Yuan wondered how many divine swords the Evil Cultivation Pce were sacrificing to create these profound arrays.

    But then, these divine swords were probably stolen from the dead cultivators anyway.

    He had silently decided to fight his way through once the fighting starts and rescue his maidens in the chaos of the fighting.

    Many of the returning golden celestials were now hesitating and thinking panicky.

    "Only 1 incense time to consider?"

    "We are being surrounded¡­"

    "I don''t want to die¡­"

    "9th realm godly existence¡­"

    "How can we defeat an immortal god?"

    "I am only a lowly 5th realm cultivator. I don''t want to die¡­"

    "I am only a lowly 7th realm cultivator. I don''t want to die so soon¡­"

    "The profound arrays here can actually affect me? What kind of a profound array is this?"

    "Is this an immortal array?"

    "I have difficulty mustering my profound strength and I need to double my profound strength to use the same profound art¡­"

    "I am too young to die¡­"

    "Wait! I surrender!"

    "I am from the righteous orthodox celestial cultivation sect. I''ll never yield or bend my knees to the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    "Maybe it isn''t that bad to join a dual cultivation sect¡­"

    "Where is my celestial sect?"

    "Isn''t that my master? My cultivation master has betrayed his own sect?!"

    "I am from one of the seven orthodox celestial sects. I''ll never surrender to the Evil Cultivation Sect and her cronies!"

    "Even if I die fighting, I have no regrets!"

    Originally, every 500 years the 7 major orthodox celestial sects would have a truce with the 5 major unorthodox celestial sects for the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Empyrean. This of course included hundreds of other cultivation sects as well.

    No one was willing to break this sacred agreement lest the immortals punished them for their sacrilegious action.

    Therefore, ites to a great surprise to many that they were now being threatened with death from the Evil Cultivation Pce and that many of the cultivators that were facing them were actually their former allies.

    A majority of the returning celestial cultivators were actually meditating in the limbo as they had chosen the quit option instead of risking their lives in the higher levels of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Therefore, their morale was the first to be hit as they did not have much of a fighting spirit in the first ce.

    Most of them were unwilling to give up their lives after spending so much time, resources and luck to attain to the golden celestial level.

    -

    -

    -

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had naturally heard the Evil Cultivation God and she was startled that the Great Demon God was dead and he had been reced by him.

    She just did not believe that the Great Demon God is dead.

    So, she closed her eyes as she extended her sword intention to the Great Deste Divine Pce that was faraway.

    She naturally had a secret way of finding out if the Great Demon God was truly dead and she also had a secret means ofmunication with the Great Demon God as well.

    Great Universe Sword Sense!

    All the immortal arrays that were left behind by the Great Demon God are actually still active.

    This means that the Great Demon God isn''t dead yet.

    All of a sudden, she had heard the voice of the Great Demon God in her head.

    "Number 1, you have finally returned. Come back to the Great Deste Divine Pce now. I need you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao answered him, "Indeed, Great Demon God. I am back now. I am just back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. It seems that the Evil Cultivation Master has dered himself as the Evil Cultivation God and he is even at the 9th realm cultivation."

    The Great Demon God said feebly, "In my moment of carelessness, he has absorbed my cultivation profound strength with his Evil Veins. That is why he is able to restore his cultivation realm to his peak. It is not wrong to say that he is the true master of the Evil Cultivation Pce now."

    Ding Xiaoxiao coldly said, "I don''t believe it. Even if he has the Evil Vein but you have the Ultimate Evil Vein. He can''t possibly absorb your cultivation profound strength unless you allow him to do so."

    There was a short silence before the Great Demon Godughed, "Hahahaha. Ding Xiaoxiao, I know that I can''t fool you. You should consider be my consort instead. You are not only very strong but you are also a very smart and extremely beautiful maiden too. I greatly desire you¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao interrupted him nonchntly, "Great Demon God. So, what is your purpose in this? You care to reveal your ns to me?"

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially for a while before he said, "This Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian has been secretly grooming his own cultivators for a long time. If I do not trick him into revealing his hands then he won''t reveal his secret trump card. After all, the Deste Celestial Fraternity is a vast ce and he needs all the help that he can muster to keep things in order. And I like to see who are the ones that are loyal to him¡­"

    "¡­ Also, I''d really like to know if the Death God Mingwang is truly loyal to our cause. Do you think that the Death God Mingwang will join hands with the Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian or fight with him to establish a new order? After all, two true gods in a middle realm are rather crowded."

    Ding Xiaoxiao frowned, "I am not interested to know."

    The Great Demon Godughed, "Come back to the Great Deste Divine Pce first."

    Ding Xiaoxiao casually said, "As you wish, Great Demon God."

    "Oh, by the way." The Great Demon God said casually, "I''m afraid that you may have to fight your way in order to see me. After all, I am being guarded by the dogs of the Evil Cultivation God. I''m sure that this isn''t too troublesome for you to do so. Hahahaha."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "You can just kill them yourself. Are you simply waiting for me to return to kill those dogs for you so that you can maintain a fa?ade that I am the one that is the real threat instead of you?"

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially, "s, you are indeed my Number 1. You really know me so well."

    Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "I really wish that you canmand me to rescue you then I don''t have to be in your service anymore."

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially, "No way! After I have the Celestial Realm, I would like you to be my empress as we share the spoils of the Celestial Realm."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said quietly, "You know that this is impossible¡­"

    It was because she had already given her heart to Ji Yuan¡­

    The Great Demon God said jovially to her, "Xiaoxiao, I will make you mine one day."

    Ding Xiaoxiao hummed, "I am just a pawn in your eyes, just like the Goddess Mel. So are all the others."

    The Great Demon Godughed, "No, you are special. You are a special pawn to me."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

 Chapter 1128 The Battle for Survival (1)

    Chapter 1128 The Battle for Survival (1)

    The powerful oppressive voice of the Evil Cultivation God was soon upon the vicinity after the one incense time of grace was over, "Those that have not surrender, kill! No mercy to those that did not surrender!"

    Almost immediately swords were drawn and the fighting started furiously from all over the mountains.

    Some of the weaker returning golden celestials were even forced to jump down to the deste mists below the mountains in order to escape being killed by the evil cultivators.

    The profound arrays in the mountains did not affect the evil cultivators and they could move freely as they were all given a special profound marble to neutralize the profound arrays in the ce. To prevent the profound marble from being taken by their enemies, they were all ordered to swallow this profound marble.

    At the same time, the profound beams from the floating profound ships above were raining down upon the battle field above, killing many of the golden celestials.

    Soon, profound arts and powerful profound beams were seen everything in the mountains, causing the entire mountains to be clouded with flying debris and the heavy dust of the mountains.

    Ji Yuan had also jumped into action as he swung his divine sword against the evil cultivators that were trying to kill him, felling many as he shed across the mountain slopes.

    He had suppressed his cultivation to the 7th realm as he did not want his profound aura to be identified and tracked by the profound beams that were shing over his head.

    He was even struck once by profound beam though when he was engaging the evil cultivators and the evil cultivators around him were all killed.

    Ji Yuan had survived due to this immense cultivation strength but he was still left bleeding and wounded from the tremendous profound power of the cannon beam that had struck him.

    After fighting for 2 hours, he was recognized by some of the evil cultivators.

    "He is Ji Yuan! I know him from his beautiful face!"

    "Indeed, he is that beardless Ji Yuan!"

    "Kill this so call Savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity!"

    "Too bad. He isn''t in the list of the cultivators that we shouldn''t kill¡­"

    "We are not allowed to kill Little Princess. Do you think that he knows where she is?"

    "Don''t be silly! They have all spawned randomly. No way that he knows where Little Princess is. Kill him instead!"

    Ji Yuan fought furiously in the mountains as he sought to find his maidens, stopping to fight seriously once if he encountered a saint cultivator. For the most times, he can''t be bothered to stop and fight. But he would stop to aid the other fighting returning golden celestials as he went past them.

    Most of the evil cultivators that Ji Yuan had encountered were not his match and couldn''t stop him from darting quickly away. And he did not give them a chance to gather together to manhunt him either.

    Even though the evil cultivators were not restricted by the formidable immortal profound arrays in the ce but the different terrains of the mountains and forests made it very hard for them to chase after Ji Yuan who was able to move with great agility and seemingly without inexhaustible profound strength.

    Soon some of the leaders of the evil cultivators got wiser as they transmitted the location of Ji Yuan to their fellow evil cultivators on board the profound ships that were above them.

    "We have found Ji Yuan. He''s on one of our hit lists. He is moving too quickly for us to nail him but this is his current co-ordinates. We will guide you to attack Ji Yuan¡­"

    And so, Ji Yuan ended up being bombarded with powerful profound energies that exceeded most seventh realm profound arts and many times, he was swept aside by the shockwaves of the bombardment.

    Ji Yuan had very sharp divine sense so he was able to avoid most of the profound beams in a nick of a time but the bombardment area of effect was really huge and he could notpletely avoid the sts so he sustained multiple injuries.

    If it was not for his acute danger sense and his 9th realm divine sense, even he got 10 lives, it was not enough for this battle.

    But he kept on fighting and looked everywhere for his maidens.

    The situation was worse than he had thought and was only getting worse!

    The first known cultivator that Ji Yuan had met was actually Li Ye and he was heavily wounded.

    Ji Yuan quicklye to his aid by felling the five evil cultivators that were surrounding Li Ye.

    Among the five evil cultivators, 2 were even golden celestials of the 6th realm cultivation but Ji Yuan''s swordy was truly exceptional especially when he also had the superior profound strength.

    Cutting them down were like cutting tofu.

    "Li Ye! You are safe now! Quickly jump down to the nearest deste mists or you won''t be able to survive today''s battle!"

    Li Ye gasped weakly, "Brother Ji Yuan, let me follow you!"

    Ji Yuan had already jumped on top to a cliff as he shouted, "See those evil cultivators on the cliffs behind me? They are homing me with the profound cannons on top of me. You won''t be able to survive with me. Right now, the profound cannons are probably recharging¡­ farewell and don''t die!"

    As soon as Ji Yuan had said that, a powerful profound beam of light had shed from a profound ship above and it had struck the cliff that Ji Yuan was on,pletely obliterating the sides of the cliff.

    The explosions and the shockwaves of this profound beam was so powerful that Li Ye who was standing from more than a mile away was also swept by the powerful shockwave of this profound attack.

    Li Ye gasped with shock, "Brother Ji Yuan!"

    There was no way for Ji Yuan to survive a profound attack of this immerse power.

    This was not a cultivator versus a cultivator fight but a war machine that could rivaled a super high rank profound beast!

    As Li Ye weakly picked himself up, he was quite astonished to see that Ji Yuan was already on another cliff and moving like a shadow; he had never thought it was possible for a cultivator to move this fast as Ji Yuan.

    He was already thinking that Ji Yuan did not exaggerate when he had imed that his movement speed was in the top 5.

    Dozens of flying profound beasts, ridden by the evil cultivators were also dogging Ji Yuan as they hurled down their profound arts against him from the air.

    These evil cultivators simply could not believe Ji Yuan was able to run as though he was flying across the mountains.

    Ji Yuan of course was able to fly now with his powerful profound aura but he would lose his maneuverability, causing him to be a target of the flying riders and the profound cannons. So, he would rather run and asionally fly with short burst of speed across the mountains.

    Ji Yuan called out silently for the names of these 8 maidens: Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue¡­ where are you?

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan spotted a golden celestial maiden that was injured and being dragged away by the evil cultivators.

    He immediatelye to her aid and when he saw her face, he was shocked.

    "Wan''Er, it is you!"

    It was indeed Mu Wan''Er, who was one of the Ji Yuan''s maidens in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. She had chosen to remain in the limbo as not to bring trouble to Ji Yuan as she was too weak to be of any help as she was only at the 5th realm cultivation.

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he quickly said to her, "Wan''Er, enter my skull ring. But don''t move from there because that ce is extremely dangerous."

    Mu Wan''Er hugged Ji Yuan and she was weeping emotionally, "Ji Yuan, I''ve thought that I would never be able to see you again¡­"

    Ji Yuan said to her, "It is alright. You are fine now."

    Mu Wan''Er wept, "I saw Chen Hanhan. She has defected to the evil cultivators¡­"

 Chapter 1129 The Battle for Survival (2)

    Chapter 1129 The Battle for Survival (2)

    After Ji Yuan had called for Xiang Li and Anyang help to take Mu Wan''Er into his skull ring, he looked a little sheepish.

    It was because he was so engrossed in saving his maidens that he had overlooked Li Ye earlier.

    Why didn''t he take him inside his skull ring and instead he had asked him to jump down the deste mists?

    He could onlymely murmur, "Li Ye, this is to make you tougher and to be a stronger cultivator¡­"

    With that he had continued on his way as he battled through the evil cultivators.

    There was heavy fighting everywhere on the mountains and it was freaking messy but it was also quite easy to identify the evil cultivators as they all donned a ck cloak.

    As Ji Yuan fought the evil cultivators, he noticed that many of them were only putting on a half-past six fight so he did not y them as they may be forced to join the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    However, he did kill 3 saint cultivators as they put on a determined fight against them and it was obvious to him that they were from the Evil Cultivation Pce as he could sense their murderous killing intentions.

    Although their killing intentions were formidable but they were all chopped down by the furious Ji Yuan in a matter of minutes.

    There were even two 7 rank profound beasts and their riders that were killed by Ji Yuan as well.

    When the other evil cultivators saw Ji Yuan, many of them actually turned a blind eye to his presence as they chased and fought the other golden celestials.

    Moreover, they could also see that Ji Yuan was being bombarded by the profound ships above and it was suicide to even go near to him.

    The evil cultivators on board the profound ships don''t even care if they were killing their own allies.

    Ji Yuan soon spotted Ling Feiyue fighting in the steep slopes of the mountains along with some celestials.

    It was really hard to miss her as she was too heavenly beautiful and when she raised her emperor-step divine sword, her long flowing ck hair was also dancing along with her.

    Ji Yuan had pinpointed her through the faint profound animus of her divine sword even on the other side of the mountain.

    Ling Feiyue and seven other celestials were fighting more than 30 evil cultivators, along with three 7th rank profound beasts and a gigantic golden animus of a powerful warrior that was created by the profound array in the vicinity.

    Their situation was extremely dire and they had almost reached the edge of the mountains where the deste mists were.

    Many of the golden celestials were not foolish enough to fight the evil cultivators and many of them were fighting their way to the edge of the mountains where the deste mists were, hoping to shake off the evil cultivators and to fight another day.

    However, the Evil Cultivation God had already anticipated this and most of the evil cultivators were stationed there.

    Also, numerous profound beasts that were under the control of the Evil Cultivation Pce were also clinging under the deste mists to ambush the golden celestials that would be attempting to flee from the battle field.

    This forced many of the golden celestials to simply jump off the mountains instead.

    In the skies, hundreds of flying riders and flying profound beasts were also encircling the mountains to pick off the golden celestials.

    Not to mention that there were numerous profound ships that were firing its profound cannon below.

    On the ground, there were hundreds of thousands of evil cultivators.

    Also, there were hundreds of formidable profound arrays that restricted it enemies and the profound arrays could also generate a powerful spirit animus of a gigantic warrior to plummet its enemies.

    Ji Yuan''s danger sense had already warned him that the profound arrays were not that simple and it was the reason why he had avoided using his powerful profound arts; he was actually right on this. The spirit gigantic warrior could only be created if sufficient profound energies were released in the vicinity.

    But at this moment, he didn''t care to think much now.

    Ling Feiyue was in mortal danger and he had to save her!

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his Million Swords Sword Domain, unleashing hundreds of profound swords in the direction of the evil cultivators that were attacking Ling Feiyue.

    The evil cultivators were surprised when Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared and they were even more startled by the hundreds of profound swords that were shing to attack them from so far away.

    This was made possible because Ji Yuan had suddenly released his upper 9th realm cultivation. And to add speed to his charge, he had also disyed his deste cherubim profound animus.

    "What the heck is that cultivator?"

    "9th realm?! Is he an immortal cultivator?"

    "He has spirit wings and ising in our direction¡­"

    "These profound swords areing so fast¡­"

    But it was already toote when they saw Ji Yuan shing down upon them.

    Hundreds of profound swords massacred all the evil cultivators and the profound beasts, ripping them to pieces as though they were like tofu.

    Under the profound might of a 9th realm cultivator, these evil cultivators simply did not have any chance against Ji Yuan.

    Even though there were 4 great saints among the evil cultivators but under the barrage of profound swords that were created by Ji Yuan''s sword domain, their most powerful profound arts were quickly destroyed and even their profound defenses were also prated.

    Only death awaited them because they had tried toy their hands on Ling Feiyue.

    Ji Yuan also destroyed the profound array in this vicinity with his sword domain as he sent hundreds of his profound swords to impale and exploded the ground.

    This in turn caused the spirit animus of the gigantic warrior to dematerialize as it swung its formidable and unstoppable golden hammer against Ling Feiyue.

    Since Ji Yuan was forced to disy his powerful trump card, he also took the opportunity to kill a dozen riders and profound beasts in the skies above him.

    The profound ships above him were too far for him to hit with his profound swords or else he would have tried to attack too.

    The timely arrival of Ji Yuan had saved Ling Feiyue and the other seven celestials who were all looking quite relieved at Ji Yuan.

    The other 7 celestials had actually recognized Ji Yuan as Sword Saint Ji Yuan but they did not know that he was a 9th realm cultivator and so they were greatly astonished.

    Some of them had actually witnessed Ji Yuan''s feat in killing a 8th rank metamorphosis profound beast before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he was already a hero in some of their hearts.

    Moreover, they were astonished to witness a powerful sword domain that had just been disyed.

    "Senior, please ept our gratitude!"

    They did not even dare to address him by his name or as Sword Saint Ji Yuan anymore!

    Ling Feiyue stared at Ji Yuan, "When did you be a 9th rank immortal cultivator?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "It is a long story."

    Ling Feiyue smiled coyly at him, "I am quite touched that you have actually used your most powerful sword domain toe to my aid."

    Ji Yuan disy a weak smile and he was thinking: Actually, my Dividing One Sword is now my most powerful sword art now.

    But he quickly said to Ling Feiyue, "Let''s talkter. I got a feeling that I got marked now and we need to move away from the firing range of the profound ships that are above us¡­"

    All of a sudden, he was interrupted by the sight of a floti of 50 profound ships that had suddenly appeared in another direction and these profound ships were firing at the Evil Cultivation Pce and the profound ships that were with it.

    The reason why he was startled was because he had recognized the blue profound ship of Saintess Fang Zhenfei from among the 50 profound ships.

    "Can it be that some of my maidens are still alive after all?!"

 Chapter 1130 New Developments

    Chapter 1130 New Developments

    The profound ships that were attacking Ji Yuan and the other cultivators were now shifting toward the smaller floti that were attacking them.

    Ji Yuan knows that the profound cannons that were onboard the profound ships were now shifting toward the new threat and won''t be aiming at him anymore.

    He was quite anxious for the smaller floti that had appeared as the sheer size of the floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce made it quite impossible to take it down anytime soon. In fact, he could see that the profound cannons of the attacking floti were all halted by an invisible barrier that protected the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The attacking floti did have some sess though in bringing down several of the profound ships from the Evil Cultivation Pce since they were unable to retaliate in time.

    Ji Yuan immediately roared aloud as the ground around him exploded as he unleashed his full profound strength, disying his ultra sword spirit and sword aura.

    At the same time, he had reced his divine sword with Little Yui as well, brandishing his true divinity ck sword.

    This startled Ling Feiyue as she gasped, "When did you have a true divinity sword as well?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Hahaha¡­ surprise?"

    Ling Feiyue frowned, "Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Because if I tell you earlier, you won''t believe me."

    "Rubbish!" Ling Feiyue giggled, "I always believe you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Like real.

    He solemnly said to Ling Feiyue, "Feiyue, move away from me. This is going to be dangerous for you¡­"

    The reason why he had said so, was because he was going to use his Life and Death Sword Domain and therefore there would be a dangerous vacuum around him that would suck the life force energies of everything around him.

    The ground that was surrounding Ji Yuan was also shaking nonstop as Ji Yuan focused all his sword intentions to bring out the Dividing One Sword.

    He actually did not want to use this sword art first but he was quite worried for his maidens that were onboard the attacking floti; they would all be facing possible annihtion once all the profound ships of the Evil Cultivation Pce had positioned their profound cannons against them.

    Or rather, it was his Life and Death Sword Domain that was bing his most precious sword domain; it could empower any of his sword domains or sword arts but he could only do it once without risk and moreover, the profound effect was even greater than when he was risking his life force energies to execute his profound arts.

    Ji Yuan shouted aloud the profound concepts of the Divine One Sword, "One Sword of the Great Void that divides the Heavens and the Earth; the Dividing Sword of the Great Void. The Divine One Sword that destroys all cultivation concepts, returning everything to the Great Void!"

    When Ji Yuan used this powerful sword art, the heavens began to turn dark immediately as a long beam of ck light danced from Ji Yuan and toward the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Dozens of profound ships were caught in the path of this ck light and were annihted.

    And even the profound barrier that protected the Evil Cultivation Pce were temporary ripped in that section where Ji Yuan had just arrived as his Dividing One Sword destroyed the concepts of the profound barrier that was being generated by the immortal array of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    This ck light was so powerful that it rocked the entire Evil Cultivation Pce and even ripped parts of the walls of the citadel.

    However, it was still not enough as the entire Evil Cultivation Pce was made up of a rare metal called Halo and whenbined with the stone celestiums, it would withstand plenty of profound energies and shockwaves. It was especially so given the massive size of the floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    However, this was enough as Ji Yuan''s profound attack had actually left a broken hole in the concepts andws of the profound array that protected the Evil Cultivation Pce; this broken hole would in time provide Ji Yuan a mean of entering the Evil Cultivation Pce in the future.

    Ji Yuan was left quite breathless as he had used almost all his profound strength for this profound attack.

    However this loss of profound strength was only temporary as his inner spiritual sea was brimming with spiritual energies.

    Even though his Life and Death Domain had protected him from using his life force energies but he had consumed plenty of his sword intentions and were extremely tired.

    For the others, including immortal cultivators, they would be mentally exhausted but not Ji Yuan; it was because Ji Yuan had always practiced the mind cultivation and his fighting spirit was absolute. This was especially so after he has reached the peak of his Divine Heart Recite.

    Ji Yuan turned to Ling Feiyue to say breathlessly, "Feiyue and the others, you can enter my skull ring to take refuge¡­"

    All of a sudden, he saw that there was only Ling Feiyue that had remained.

    Ling Feiyue was still astonished by the profound power of his sword art as she was still staring at the damage that Ji Yuan had done.

    But when Ji Yuan had called out to her, she quickly turned to smile at him. "The others have decided to run for the deste mists below the mountains first. This is the original n that we have."

    Ji Yuan sarcastically said, "Well, it made sense that it is safer below the deste mists than with me. If I am killed then all of you will be captured as well¡­"

    "Ji Yuan!"

    "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan!"

    All of a sudden, he was interrupted by several shouts and he was pleasantly surprised to see that it was Little Princess, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress that had found him.

    They were nearby when they had seen a powerful ck light so they quicklye over to investigate even though it may not be safe.

    But any enemies of the Evil Cultivation Pce is an ally, right?

    As soon as Shui Xisi was near him, she flew to him and she was weeping aloud in his embrace. "Ji Yuan¡­ my sister is dead¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed woefully as he held onto Shui Xisi tightly, "I know¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    Above Ji Yuan, in the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The Evil Cultivation God was startled when a powerful ck beam of light, more powerful than the profound cannons of any profound ships had suddenly rocked the profound defenses of the Evil Cultivation God.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed, "What is¡­ that? It is the¡­ Death God Mingwang?"

    The Goddess Alyssa had just finished extending her divine sense and said quietly, "I''ve just checked. I''ve also recognized this profound animus. Ites from that Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    The Goddess Alyssa had actually fought with Ji Yuan in the past and hence, she had recognized his profound signature.

    The Evil Cultivation God looked extremely displeased, "Did this Sword Saint Ji Yuan just unleashed a 9th realm profound art?"

    Number 2 Murong Yueughed coldly, "Indeed. Not only that¡­ he also¡­ have a true divinity sword. I want his divine sword¡­ then I am more confident of killing¡­ Number 1 and the Death God Mingwang."

    The Evil Cultivation God could tell what was on Number 2 Murong Yue''s mind so he said coldly, "Your duty is to stay with the Evil Cultivation Pce and to wait for the Death God Mingwang and Number 1¡­"

    But Number 2 had already departed.

    The Evil Cultivation God: ¡­

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled wryly, "Perhaps, it isn''t a bad thing to end this new threat first. After all, a true divinity sword is a potent weapon and we can''t allow it to be in our enemies'' hands."

    Then she smiled beautifully, "What is there for you to worry about? Number 2 is absolutely loyal to you due to the blood oath that is made between the two of you. Perhaps, with Number 2 in the battlefield below, we have a greater chance of luring the Death God Mingwang and Number 1 into the Evil Cultivation Pce. Aren''t we afraid that they wouldn''te?"

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned but slowly nodded, "I don''t like too many new factors."

    The Goddess Alyssa asked him, "You seem a little troubled? Is it because of the new enemy fleet that has suddenly appeared?"

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned coldly, "I am just afraid that the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue did not dare toe instead. I am just wondering why Number 1 isn''t making a move yet? By right, given her impulsive nature, she would have stormed my Evil Cultivation Pce by now. And also, the Death God Mingwang ispletely silence. I am expecting the Death God Mingwang to give me his congrattions over the death of the Great Demon God¡­"

    Then he hesitated to say, "Most importantly, why haven''t I heard anything from Yin Wei yet?"

 Chapter 1131 Ji Yuan is declared dead

    Chapter 1131 Ji Yuan is dered dead

    On board a blue profound ship that used to belong to Saintess Fang Zhenfei, Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was leading the attack on the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Apanying her on board of this profound ship was Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo.

    As for Shui Qingqing, Zhao Songjin, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Ling Tianshui, they were themanders of the other profound ships in this attack.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had actually wanted to attack the Evil Cultivation Pce immediately to help save as many of the returning golden celestials as possible.

    For this, they had been conserving their supplies of spirit stones for some time as their profound ships and profound cannons all required a massive amount of spirit stones in order to operate.

    Their profound ships also require arge amount of spirit stones to maintain its profound shield against the powerful profound cannons of the enemy''s profound ships.

    Shangguan Yan had said to Xue Qianxue and the other maidens, "It is wiser that we show up an hour or twoter."

    Xue Qianxue was shocked by this suggestion as did the other maidens, "And then Ji Yuan and the others may have perished by then."

    Shangguan Yan answered quietly, "And then our profound ships will have to bear the blunt of the firepower of the profound ships of the Evil Cultivation Pce. As you know, they have the numerical numbers as well as some of the biggest profound ships around. Our profound ships won''t be able to endure their firepower for too long before facingplete annihtion and countless number of cultivators on board the profound ship would then die. This isn''t what Ji Yuan wants to see, am I right?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "Instead of rescuing the returning golden celestials, we may end up with of no help at all."

    Sword Saintess Yuluo said quietly, "That''s right. Ji Yuan and the others are all seventh realm cultivators. Their divine sense should warn them of the impeding dangers from the profound cannons of the profound ships. This is a risk that we have to take if we want to save as many of the returning celestials as possible¡­"

    Then she sighed heavily, "Even if we can''t save Ji Yuan or the other maidens."

    Shui Qingqing had said with a woeful voice, "I don''t want to sacrifice Ji Yuan but it seems like we may have to in order to save as many of the returning golden celestials as possible to continue the battle against the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ling Tianshui had said, "I want to rescue Ji Yuan and my niece Ling Feiyue for than anything. Isn''t this the reason why we are attacking in the first ce even though we may be walking into an ambush? We are merely here to distract the Evil Cultivation Pce so that as many of the returning golden celestials can escape through to the deste mists below. In the first ce, we are actually powerless to do anything."

    Xue Qianxue nodded slowly, "That''s right. We are all like the death squad in this attack. In the first ce we can only muster around 50 profound ships from all the resistance groups. It is a hit and run thing for us. We can''t evennd our profound ships on the battle field as the Evil Cultivation Pce and her allies greatly outnumber us."

    Hua Wuwu said coldly, "How irony that we can''t even move our cultivators to make a fight against the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    When she had said that, many of the maidens were sighing heavily.

    Even though the total number of cultivators that are willing to fight surpassed that of the Evil Cultivation Pce but the Celestial Realm is a mountainous region and the resistance groupsck the means to transport them across the vast regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    By doing so openly, they would soon be noticed by the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Xue Qianxue asked Shangguan Yan, "I''m sorry for interrupting your suggestion. I guess that the rest of the maidens also agree with you."

    Shangguan Yan sighed softly, "We don''t have much spirit stones in reserve to power our profound ships but the Evil Cultivation Pce is also facing a massive drain too. In this forting battle, they will be burning up plenty of their spirit stones. I don''t believe that their profound ships will be able to deploy inrge numbers anytime soon after this battle. So it is crucial that we preserve as many profound ships as possible. We have to remember that the Evil Cultivation Pce has ess to the mines and the ability to construct new profound ships while we are unable to. In the longer run, we will surely lose. Therefore, we need to preserve as many of our profound ships as possible to ferry our cultivators to safety if we still want to fight against the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Xue Qianxue sighed softly, "How irony that now we are the ones that are hiding while the Evil Cultivation Pce is in the open and even have the support of so many cultivation sects. These traitors."

    Back to the present.

    Xue Qianxue and the others were startled by the ck beam of light that erupted from the ground below as it flied up to strike the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Dozens of profound ships from the Evil Cultivation Pce were destroyed and it had even breeched the profound barrier of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Xue Qianxue gasped with shock, "9th realm profound power! Is it the Death God Mingwang?"

    Great Consort Xu Yifei was also startled.

    Her spirit divine sense was sharper than anyone and she could pick up minute traces of Ji Yuan''s profound signature.

    She turned and gasped to the other maidens, "This profound attack is from Ji Yuan! I am sure of this. He is alive!"

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Xue Qianxue were all gasping with shock, "It is Ji Yuan? Really?"

    Xue Qianxue gasped with another shock, "Don''t tell me that Ji Yuan is so foolish as to consume some miraculous profound pills that he had obtained from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to increase his cultivation realm temporary just to use this profound attack? Then he will surely die after using such a powerful profound attack like this. Or even explode himself."

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Chengxi, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Xu Yifei were all gasping with great shock; there is a price for using such powerful profound art and the result is always a certain death.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was in tears, "Old Master¡­ Ji Yuan¡­ why is he so foolish? Just so that he can save us?"

    Xue Qianxue slowly nodded and her eyes were also bleary, "He must have recognized this as his Jiajia''s profound ship. Because Jiajia had died, he did not want to live anymore."

    Xu Yifei opened her eyes and said, "The 9th realm disturbance is still active below. Although it is faint at this distance but I can''t be wrong. So Ji Yuan is not dead yet."

    Xue Qianxue said woefully, "It is just a matter of time before Ji Yuan will die anyway¡­"

    All the other maidens were nodding too; in their minds, they had already decided that Ji Yuan was going to die by exploding his cultivation core soon.

    Xu Yifei said quietly, "I can use my transference circle to retrieve Ji Yuan''s corpse¡­"

    She was actually nning to use her transference circle to protect this profound ship when its profound shield fails.

    By retrieving Ji Yuan''s body, she would have exhausted herself and hence unable to protect the profound ship afterwards.

    Xue Qianxue sighed woefully, "By the time you go down there, Ji Yuan would have exploded himself into an unrecognized mess of blood and flesh. There will be nothing for you to retrieve¡­"

    Then she wept aloud as fell weakly to the ground, "I am waiting for Ji Yuan to return so as to have him to name our baby son. But I guess that it is no longer possible now. I just have to name our baby son as Junior Ji Yuan to remember him by. Even though Ji Yuan may die but his name will never die in our hearts."

 Chapter 1132 9th Realm Immortals?!

    Chapter 1132 9th Realm Immortals?!

    "Look!"

    Xu Yifei gasped as she pointed to a bright light that was suddenly seen in the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    There was a sh of light that had suddenly shed from the Evil Cultivation Pce and it was speeding toward the direction where Ji Yuan was.

    It sped over the heavens and over the many mountain peaks before disappearing below.

    However, as it was too far, they couldn''t see over the mountains.

    Xu Yifei was still thinkinh anxiously for Ji Yuan, "There may be a chance that I can still save Ji Yuan¡­"

    She had a blood pill that could restore her profound strength to use her transference circle twice but the price was that she had to void her cultivation strength for a long time. It was a heavy price.

    In theory, it may be possible for her to use the Traverse Transference Divine Array to suppress Ji Yuan''s cultivation core and preventing it from exploding.

    At the same time, she was also prepared to use the Empyrean Body Exchanging Dipper Spirit Array to exchange her body for Ji Yuan.

    But naturally she did not want to tell the maidens that she was considering giving up her life for Ji Yuan.

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "You¡­ can really save Ji Yuan?"

    Xu Yifei nodded, "I think I may be able to."

    The other maidens were also overjoyed.

    Xue Qianxue smiled immediately, "Then quick¡­"

    But all of a sudden, she was interrupted by another bright light that appeared from the Evil Cultivation Pce and it was a group of 5 immortal cultivators.

    Leading them was the Goddess Alyssa and her oppressing aura was directed at the blue profound ship that was in front of them, in which Sacred Xue Qianxue was onboard.

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "She is a 9th realm immortal?!"

    Xu Yifei said, "I can''t tell the cultivation realms of the other 4 that are with her but they should be immortal cultivators as well since they are able to fly in the air."

    A hundred of the profound ships of the Evil Cultivation Pce were now retaliating their profound cannons on the rest of Xue Qianxue''s floti and they had only spared the blue profound ship for a reason.

    It was because this was the order of the Goddess Alyssa.

    The Goddess Alyssa was a 9th realm initial stage immortal and she was apanied by 4 peaked 8th realm immortals of her deste race.

    These 4 deste immortals that were with the Goddess Alyssa were the recently joined deste immortals that the Evil Cultivation God was keeping in secret from the Great Demon God.

    The powerful profound voice of the Goddess Alyssa echoed, "Destroy all the enemies'' profound ships except for the blue profound vessel. The Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue is mine!"

    The Goddess Alyssa was actually waiting for the moment when the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue would show up and when the Evil Cultivation Pce had verified that she was indeed among the attackers, the Goddess Alyssa had made her move.

    The Goddess Alyssaughed coldly, "Foolish celestial cultivators. How are you going to oppose the immortal gods?"

    With that, she had disyed a 9th realm profound art and a profound gigantic w began to manifest in the air to grab the blue profound ship that was in front.

    This profound gigantic w was more than 20 times bigger than the entire blue profound ship!

    Xue Qianxue, Xu Yifei, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Shangguan Yan were all shocked by the powerful profound art that was making their way against them.

    Even the other maidens on the other profound ships were also shocked too but the entire heaven were exploding with the profound explosions that were unleashed by the warring profound ships that they could not do anything to help Sacred Xue Qianxue.

    Even if they were not engaged, they were still powerless to help.

    Shui Qingqing ordered themand under her to quickly directed her profound ship''s profound cannons on the gigantic w but all the firepower that were inflicted upon it, just exploded harmlessly as the profound power of the gigantic w was greater than the fire power of the profound cannons.

    This was a 9th realm profound art that only a 9th realm immortal could use and it was unstoppable!

    And just behind the Goddess Alyssa, the 4 immortal cultivators were all raising their fingers as they shot beams of blue lights that shattered and destroyed the profound ships in front of them as though their profound barriers were like tofu.

    This was a trap and the moment that the Evil Cultivation Pce was waiting for!

    Xu Yifei turned to say gravely to Xue Qianxue, "I can use my Traverse Transference Divine Array to take you all away. And then we can live to fight another day. Or I can use my Traverse Transference Divine Array to protect all our profound ships for a while. But I won''t be able to hold them off for long. They are immortal cultivators, after all. What do you want me to do?"

    Xue Qianxue sighed heavily before she said with great determination, "Since Ji Yuan will no longer be around anymore, what is the point of me living alone? I don''t want the other maidens to die so let''s put on a brave fight. I will rather explode my cultivation core than fall into the hands of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Sword Saintess Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were all saying at the same time, "Sister Qianxue, we will all explode our cultivation cores with you!"

    Xu Yifei nodded gravely, "Alright then."

    With that she had quickly raised her hands as she disyed the Traverse Transference Divine Array, causing multiple golden circles to radiate around her.

    And her golden circles got bigger and bigger until it formed a barrier in front of their profound ship and also the other profound ships that were under assault.

    The gigantic w was suddenly halted in front of this golden circle. Even the dozens of profound attacks from the profound ships and the 4 immortals were also halted by the manifestation of this gigantic magic circle.

    The Goddess Alyssa looked startled, "This is an immensely powerful immortal magic circle. There is an immortal that was onboard of Xue Qianxue''s profound ship?"

    Her powerful divine sense quickly locked into Xu Yifei who was already breaking into cold sweats.

    The Goddess Alyssaughed, "A mere 7th realm cultivator. It seems that she isn''t a celestial too but a spiritas that is good in using the profound formations. I''ve heard that the Spiritas Race is really good with spirit talismans and profound arrays but this is really unexpected. She must be using a powerful profound treasure to do ast-ditch defense against us."

    She shouted loudly, "Attack and rip this magic array that is in front of us. It won''tst for too long."

    At the same time, her profound gigantic w had been turned into a gigantic fist as it plummeted onto the magic circle that was created by Xu Yifei, resulting in multiple powerful profound shockwaves that swayed aside the profound ships on Xue Qianxue''s side.

    Xue Qianxue and the other maidens were astonished that Xu Yifei could actually stop the profound attack of the immortals and the profound ships that were attacking them.

    Xu Yifei who was sweating heavily on her forehead and her bare back, said gravely to them. "This¡­ won''tst for too long. I''m sorry¡­"

    -

    Below, Ji Yuan had just unleashed his Dividing One Sword and he had also reunited with Shui Xisi, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress.

    Right now, he was hugging a weeping Shui Xisi in his embrace when they were startled by a bright that hade from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Actually Ji Yuan was even woeful than her and he was also furious. But he had suppressed all his emotions instead because saving his other maidens were his first piority now.

    This bright light had suddenlynded and crashed thunderous on the ground in front of Ji Yuan like a terrible earthquake, causing the ground to shake and almost causing Ji Yuan and his maidens to be swept off the ground.

    From the smoldering debris, arge monstrosity that was humanoid in shape could be seen but it did not look humanoid at all for it had long talons and an elongated armored head.

    However, Ji Yuan was more stunned by the cultivation realm of this thing as its profound aura fiercely proimed it fiercely as a peaked 9th realm immortal.

    Ji Yuan and the others could sense an overwhelming fear that were upon them when they saw this strange immortal that looked more like an abyssal immortal.

    "Who are you?" Ji Yuan gasped as he pushed Shui Xisi behind him as he raised his divine ck sword in front of him.

    The bestial looking immortal hissed, "I am¡­ Number 2¡­ give me your¡­ sword!"

    Ji Yuan was startled: Number 1 is so beautiful but Number 2 is so ugly?

    But he was also cautious immediately.

    It was because if Number 1 was already so powerful then Number 2 was second to none.

 Chapter 1133 Secret of the Evil Vein Bloodline

    Chapter 1133 Secret of the Evil Vein Bloodline

    Ji Yuan was startled by this formidable immortal cultivator that called herself Number 2 appearing in front of him.

    This Number 2 appeared to be covered by a thick ck armor that was simrly to a metamorphosis monster and she was naked.

    Although she was naked but Ji Yuan was not interested in her as she was too gruesome looking and there was no flesh on her to be seen. Even her breasts looked like two pieces of exoskeleton and she looked heavily armored.

    Ji Yuan said coldly to her as he raised his true divinity ck sword, "I am afraid that you have to fight me for that."

    Behind him, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had all disyed their divine swords against this Number 2.

    Number 2 pointed at Little Princess as she hissed coldly, "Your father, the Evil Cultivation God¡­ requests that you¡­ return to the¡­ Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Little Princess said coldly, "My father? I think not. He isn''t my real father. The Death God Mingwang has told me everything already."

    Yun Chi had told Little Princess that she was an immortal soul from the Deste Immortal Realm that was given a mortal body in the Celestial Realm and that she was the originator of the Ultimate Evil Veins.

    Over the years, the Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian had been secretly drawing her blood essences to conduct his ungodly experiments and to create cultivators with the Evil Veins for his own use.

    This of course did not escape the eyes of the Great Demon God and the other two True Gods, the Deste Dragon God Longdi and the Death God Mingwang.

    Her blood essence was essential to the Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian but only if she was a chaste maiden as the Evil Veins in her blood must not be corrupted by any yang essence.

    That was why when Little Princess had lost her chastity to an unknown cultivator, the Evil Cultivator Master was hopping mad and even his attitude toward the Little Princess had also changed from that day onward.

    At that time the name Ji Yuan waspletely alien to the Evil Cultivation Master as he was apletely unknown cultivator that was not from the 7 major celestial sects nor did he have any renown or fame in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan may even be his fake name.

    It was only when Ji Yuan had be a sword saint and a well-known poet for his loud mouth that the Evil Cultivation Master had taken notice of this ''Ji Yuan'' that had robbed his ''daughter'' of her chastity so many years ago.

    So the Evil Cultivation Master had called for the ck Hand Guild to send their assassins against this Ji Yuan.

    The assassinations actually failed but the Evil Cultivation Master did not pursue further as Ji Yuan had a poor background. Moreover, at that time when he had supposedly banged Little Princess who was a great saintess, he was not even a golden celestial and was merely a 4th realm cultivator.

    So it was quite unthinkable to the Evil Cultivation Master that Little Princess was vited by a mere 4th realm cultivator. He had concluded that Ji Yuan had to be a saint and not a 4th realm cultivator.

    So he quickly dismissed that it was this Ji Yuan instead.

    Little Princess'' bodyguards at that time all refused to divulge anything, choosing to explode their cultivation cores to protect Little Princess instead.

    Little Princess had also refused to divulge anything and instead she had said that she would avenge herself instead.

    The Evil Cultivation Master did not try to push his luck against Little Princess too much because the Great Demon God was constantly reminding him to keep Little Princess safe in his hands.

    The Great Demon God had said to the Evil Cultivation Master, "Little Princess is a soul remnant that I''ve got after plenty of difficulty in my immortal world. Therefore, I''d expect for you to take good care of her as her ''father''. Got it?"

    It was only recently when Little Princess was with Ji Yuan that the Evil Cultivation Master had suddenly realized that ''this'' Ji Yuan and ''that'' Ji Yuan was actually the same person.

    He simply could not believe a mere 4th realm cultivator would actually vite a great saintess.

    This waspletely unthinkable to him!

    The Evil Cultivation Master was then forced to agree that Ji Yuan does have a beautiful look in order to captivate the heart of the Little Princess like this.

    Although he tried to convince himself by saying that he was actually better looking than Ji Yuan.

    With the demise of the Great Demon God, the Evil Cultivation Master dered himself the Evil Cultivation God and he had a new n for Little Princes; he had decided to turn her into his depraved harlot to give birth to new chaste maidens with the Evil Veins to create new generations powerful Evil Vein cultivators and to perfect his cultivation of the Evil Vein.

    For that, he also needed to copte with the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    The powerful killing intentions of Number 2 Murong Yue were all around the vicinity as she slowly walked unhurriedly toward Ji Yuan and her divine sense was locked onto Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan said to Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Little Princess without turning his head around. "Go away quickly. You are not her match¡­"

    Shui Xisi protested immediately, "No, Ji Yuan! We will fight together!"

    Just as Shui Xisi had said to this point, there was another sh of light that had appeared in the skies that was next to the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    5 Immortal cultivators had suddenly appeared.

    And one of the immortal cultivators had even manifested a big w to grab the blue profound ship that once belonged to Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    Ji Yuan was startled and he had turned ashen.

    He turned to say panicky to his maidens, "Leave this fight to me! I want you to help of a way, any ways to help them. My other maidens may be on board that profound ship!"

    Shui Xisi protested, "But Ji Yuan¡­"

    But Ji Yuan interrupted her with a solemn shout, "Listen to me for once, Sisi! Leave this fight to me and try to help the others as much as possible! Get them out of there!"

    Shui Xisi reluctantly said, "The profound ships of my Water Melody Pce are also there. Ji Yuan, leave this to me. I''ll help."

    Ji Yuan had a look of relief; he knows that Shui Xisi was able to fly with her divine sword so there is a chance that she may be able to reach them in time.

    He quickly said, "You are no match for the 5 immortals. I''ll try to settle this fight as quickly as possible¡­"

    All of a sudden, a monstrous zing phoenix god beast had suddenly appeared from within Shui Xisi''s soul sea as she jumped onto it with the other maidens, "Augustina, fly me quickly over there."

    This was a powerful 9th rank epic phoenix god beast!

    Even Number 2 Murong Yue was startled by the appearance of this powerful 9th rank epic phoenix god beast.

    And then Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress had flied off with this phoenix god beast in a hurry.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed with some relief, "You are¡­ indeed honorable¡­ for a moment, I''ve thought that¡­ you are going to fight me with that god beast¡­"

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish and even awkward as he said bitterly, "If I told you that I have totally forget that Sisi has that god beast with her, will you believe me?"

    And he was also bitterly thinking: Sisi, did you forget to take me away as well? Well, I did ask you to go there immediately but your action is a little too fast. Why did I have to shout at you and interrupt you?

    But he was soon saying to himself: Never mind. This Number 2 can fly anyway.

 Chapter 1134 The Astronomic Eulogy Divine Sword

    Chapter 1134 The Astronomic Eulogy Divine Sword

    The Goddess Alyssaughed coldly as her profound gigantic fist smashed through the magic circle that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei had created.

    This caused Xu Yifei to cough out blood as she stumbled backward.

    Although her Traverse Transference Divine Array was formidable but shecked the profound strength to maintain it with her current cultivation realm, especially against 5 immortals and the more than 100 profound ships that were firing against her magic circle.

    Her Traverse Transference Divine Array had onlysted for less than 10 breaths of time.

    Just as Xu Yifei and all the others had thought that they were goners, a ck shadow had suddenly appeared in the middle between the two forces.

    This ck shadow had suddenly disyed her emperor-step divine sword andpletely destroyed the profound gigantic fist.

    A ck cloaked figure in a ck mask was then seen hovering in the middle and disying a powerful 9th realm cultivation as well.

    The sudden appearance of this ck cloaked figure caused the profound ships on both sides to stop firing as they waited for further instructions.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was startled, "Is he the Death God Mingwang? And why did hee to our aid?

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled to the Death God Mingwang, "I was wondering when you will be turning up. Aren''t you on our side?"

    The Death God Mingwang smiled coldly, "I was just wondering why the Great Demon God will suddenly die and I was also wondering if this may be a trap for me."

    The profound voice of the Evil Cultivation God was suddenly heard in the vicinity.

    "s, so it is the Death God Mingwang. Surely you know by now that I''ve already taken care of the Great Demon God. The Great Demon God have not exactly died yet as I still need him to empower the immortal arrays of the Great Deste Divine Pce to keep the immortals from the Nine Heavens at bay¡­"

    "¡­ I would like to extend my invitation to you to join my side. What do you think of my proposal, Great God Mingwang?"

    The Death God Mingwang hummed coldly, "You are merely a peaked 9th realm immortal while I am a half-step True Divinity. What makes you think that I will join your side?"

    The Evil Cultivation Godughed, "But in the Celestial Realm, you are merely at the peak of the 9th realm cultivation and is my equal. This isn''t the Deste Immortal Realm where you are a true god. In this realm, you can be killed."

    The Death God Mingwang said coldly, "So if I don''t join your side then you will start to use the hidden profound cannons that are positioned in the Evil Cultivation Pce against me?"

    The Evil Cultivation Godughed jovially, "I am surprised that you are actually aware of this. You can be rest assured that my Asura Cannon will be enough to take you down with a single st. The minute that you have appeared in this ce, you are already trapped."

    20 more deste immortals had suddenly appeared from all around the Death God Mingwang.

    "The minute that you try to move, I will activate my immortal array against you and no matter how formidable you may be, you won''t be able to escape taking a hit from my Asura Cannon. Also, can you fight against so many deste immortals at the same time as well?"

    All of a sudden, a gigantic 9th rank epic phoenix god beast was seen flying from the mountains and heading toward their direction.

    The sudden appearance of this phoenix god beast stunned everyone and there were 4 maidens that were also standing on top.

    Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue gasped with shock when she had recognized three of the maidens as Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Ling Feiyue.

    "It is Sister Feiyue¡­"

    The other maidens were also startled.

    Shui Qingqing who was on board the other profound ship was shouting to her female followers, "It is our Matriarch! She is finally back!"

    The Evil Cultivation God was shouting too, "Little Princess! I''ve finally found you! Come back to the Evil Cultivation Pce and I shall forgive all your iniquities!"

    Little Princess hummed coldly, "Dream on!"

    Shui Xisi, Little Princess, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Ling Feiyue were quite relieved to see the Death God Mingwang and they naturally know that ''he'' was actually Yun Chi.

    They were thankful that Yun Chi had stepped in in a nick of time.

    However, they couldn''t expose Yun Chi''s identity and they had to pretend that they were not on a friendly term with the Death God Mingwang.

    Shui Xisi had stepped jumped from the phoenix god beast to face the Goddess Alyssa and the other deste immortals as she hovered in mid-air.

    In her hand, she had suddenly disyed the Astronomic Eulogy, her divine sword.

    "I am going to avenge my Sister Feifei today!"

    The Goddess Alyssa was startled, "Wait a minute. This divine sword¡­ isn''t this the divine sword of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice? Who are you?!"

    Shui Xisi was burning with rage as she said extremely coldly, "Who am I? You want to know?"

    All of a sudden, the divine sword that was in her hand exploded into with a wild profound power as a powerful sword aura enveloped it as it became a true divinity sword.

    She had released the seventh seal that was ced upon the Astronomic Eulogy and had released its true potential.

    The Goddess Alyssa, the deste immortals and even the Evil Cultivation God were all greatly startled that a true divinity sword had been unleashed in front of them.

    "This is really the divine sword of the Great Goddess Alice¡­"

    "It isn''t a fake. It is the real deal¡­"

    "Who is this maiden?"

    "It is impossible for her to use the divine sword of the Great Goddess Alice¡­"

    Shui Xisi at the same time had also released her profound animus and her cultivation realm had suddenly increased to the upper 8th realm.

    "Who am I? You are asking? Naturally I am the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, the former Empress of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. You didn''t think that Saintess Fang Zhenfei is the only daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, do you? Today, I am going to avenge for my sister!"

    The Goddess Alyssa was shocked, "The Great Goddess Alice has another daughter and she is you?! And she has given you her most powerful divine sword?!"

    When Shui Qingqing and the other maidens had heard that Shui Xisi is actually the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice that the cultivators in the Celestial Realm have revered, they were all shocked.

    Next to the Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Fantian, the Great Goddess Celestial Alice is actually ranked third in cultivation strength.

    One must know that even Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess had suffered defeat in the hands of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice in the past and she had to seek refuge in the Celestial Realm like the many defeated deste immortals as they could hide under the deste mists of the Celestial Realm.

    Shui Xisi said woefully, "I''ve thought that I can finallyplete the Nine Nirvana Revolutions with my Sister Feifei by finding the 10 million year old Nirvana Herb. But in the end, I am left alone¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa asked solemnly, "So you have alreadypleted the Nine Nirvana Revolutions?"

    Shui Xisiughed coldly, "Unfortunately for all of you. Indeed, I have now."

    When the Goddess Alyssa and the other deste immortals had heard her, they were taken aback and were shifting a little backward.

    When the Saintess Fang Zhenfei had died, she had onlypleted eight of the revolutions of the Nine Nirvana Resolutions but her profound strength was already stronger than many of the 9th realm cultivators. Moreover, she had no true divinity sword at that time and only a celestial-step divine sword.

    When she had exploded her cultivation core, she could even hurt the Great Demon God.

    And Shui Xisi was even stronger than their main enemy Saintess Fang Zhenfei!

 Chapter 1135 Ji Yuan vs. Number 2 (1)

    Chapter 1135 Ji Yuan vs. Number 2 (1)

    The Death God Mingwang had suddenly spoken as ''he''ughed, "So, Evil Cultivation God. It seems that you have another strong opponent now. So, if we both attack you at the same time, will you be using your Asura Cannon on me or on her? If I am not wrong, you can only use the Asura Cannon only once. There is also a god beast here. I just wonder who you will be aiming against?"

    Yun Chi was actually warningly Shui Xisi to be careful about this Asura Cannon.

    When Shui Xisi had heard the name of Asura Cannon, she had turned pale immediately; it was because her mother consort had warned her that the Deste Cultivators possess a type of profound cannon that was called the Asura Cannon and it was extremely powerful. Even a 9th realm immortal may not survive its full st.

    The Pangu Immortals had in the past destroyed several of these Asura Cannons but the Deste Immortals had escaped with some of the Asura Cannons when their Ancient City Fortress had failed tounch a sessful invasion of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

    One may think that the Ancient City Fortress was just a mere profound ship but it was actually a super sized city and it was ruled by the 12 Citadel Immortal Great Lords and Great Mistresses of the Deste Immortal Race.

    Even the monstrous Evil Cultivation Pce was a dwarf in front of this Ancient City Fortress and the Evil Cultivation Pce was just a mere profound ship while the Ancient City Fortress was a city of hundreds of thousands of Deste Immortals and there were 12 Citadels that marked the domains of each of the Citadel Immortal Great Lords and Great Goddesses.

    Bai Qianfeng the Abyssal Null Goddess was a Citadel Great Mistress 1 of the 12 Citadels and a superior immortal.

    Even the same cultivation realm immortals had to bow in her presence as even the same realm immortals have their 3, 6, 9 tiers.

    Shui Xisi had raised her divine sword against the Goddess Alyssa as she said coldly, "So what if you have the Asura Cannon? You can only use it only once but are you confident of taking all of us at the same time?"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled wryly, "You have greatly underestimated the st radius of the Asura Cannon. It can even cover the entire heavens and destroyed an entire mountain. Even if we did not lock the Asura Cannon on you, do you think that you are able to survive the shockwaves of the Asura Cannon? Even if you have the true divinity of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice in your hands but you are not an immortal nor are you the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. Therefore, you will surely die."

    Then she turned to smile at the Death God Mingwang, "So, are you for us, for them or for yourself?"

    Shui Xisi pretended to ask the Death God Mingwang, "So it seems to me that you are on the side of the Great Demon God and not this Evil Cultivation God. If we join hands then this may even be good for us."

    The Death God Mingwang or rather Yun Chi smiled wryly as she pretended not to know Shui Xisi, "Why do you say so?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "I''ve happened to know a weakness of these immortals. Even though they may be able to stay in the Celestial Realm but they can''t use more than 2/3 of their cultivation strength. Therefore, they can''t fight their best here. But for me, I am able to fight to my limits."

    The Death God Mingwang smiled wryly, "However, I am also an immortal and I can''t fight to my limits as well¡­"

    Yun Chi was actually buying time for Xue Qianxue and her cultivators to conduct repairs for their profound ships and she was also thinking on the best strategy to escape.

    -

    -

    -

    Somewhere in the mountains in the vicinity below.

    Ji Yuan and Number 2 Murong Yue were looking with great hostility against each other as they prepared to fight against each other.

    Ji Yuanughed coldly, "You may have a higher cultivation boundary than me but let''s not forget that you are an immortal cultivator and therefore, you can''t use beyond your 2/3 cultivation strength limits. Therefore, I have an advantage here."

    Number 2 hissed, "I am sorry to disappoint you¡­ as a metamorphosis being now, I have no such weakness."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Crap!

    Number 2 continued mockingly, "However I know your weakness¡­ you are merely a half-immortal cultivator¡­and not a true immortal¡­ therefore¡­ your spiritual sea boundaries are not the same as a true 9th realm immortal¡­ therefore, you are weaker than the same realm true immortal¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Do you have to be so blunt?"

    Then he had suddenly raised his true divinity ck divine sword as he shed to attack Number 2 Murong Yue.

    The two of them immediately shed against each other with terrifying speed as the ground around them erupted and spreading the shockwaves of their strong melee attacks.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly broken the talons of Number 2 but he was also sent stumbling backward as he was struck by her profound force which caused him to cough out blood.

    In the first round of their test battle, Ji Yuan''s profound power was greater than Number 2 but Number 2''s profound strength was stronger than him.

    But as soon as Ji Yuan had broken the talons of Number 2, her broken talons had quickly regenerated in a few blinks of an eye.

    Ji Yuan had also recovered from the profound blow that was afflicted upon him.

    However, he was still bleeding from the sts of the profound cannons that he was forced to tank earlier. This would take him some time to regenerate and to recover.

    This quick speed attack allowed the two of them to quickly gauge each other''s profound strength and profound power.

    Number 2 Murong Yue had suddenly disyed a celestial-step divine sword and she was hissing, "My specialty is my Lunar Crescent de profound art¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had released two powerful waves of crescent sword energies that curved toward Ji Yuan.

    Her profound sword energies were so powerful that two sword energies walls could be seen tearing up the ground toward Ji Yuan even though her sword energies were an aerial move.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Sword energies?! You are also a sword energy cultivator?!"

    He quickly raised his sword to explode his sword energy attack the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon on the iing sword energies.

    The two sword energies shed against each other and exploded its profound energies around them.

    But the sword energies of Number 2 Murong Yue were two powerful sword energies and her second sword energy was not affected by Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon and it exploded upon Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was struck and he was crashed mightily into the walls of the mountain!

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed with jovialughter, "This is too easy and such a disappointment¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly picked himself and he was enveloped by his sword aura and on his forehead was his Ultra Sword Spirit.

    He swiped away the golden blood on his lips and said coldly, "I must admit that you are strong but it is still not enough to bring me down¡­"

    Ji Yuan continued to say coldly to Number 2, "I have only have one thing to ask from you. Were you there when the Saintess Fang Zhenfei had died? And did you dirty your hands by killing her?"

    Number 2 Murong Yueughed eerily, "I can feel your killing intentions¡­ but do you think that your killing intentions¡­ are enough to kill me? Let me tell you¡­"

    Then she started to hiss with more mockingughter, "Saintess¡­ Fang Zhenfei¡­ she is such a slut when she had died¡­ she got toyed by all the men in the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­ Hahaha¡­ and I was there¡­ when I had stripped her naked for the men¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he exploded with anger as he used all his profound strength to attack her.

    All his profound strength was imbued into his profound attack as he charged at Number 2; there were no profound arts and no sword techniques but only his pure rage.

    Ji Yuan''s true divinity sword exploded like a pir of ck profound mes as he channeled all his profound power into attacking Number 2 Murong Yue.

    Number 2 Murong Yue had also released her profound might in retaliation; she was purposely enraging Ji Yuan so that he would be consumed by his own anger and hence, used up his profound strength even faster.

    "Where is that sword art that you used on the Evil Cultivation Pce? Don''t tell me that you have already exhausted your profound strength when you are using that?"

    She could naturally see that Ji Yuan was already been through several battles before her.

    While her immortal body was far stronger than this Ji Yuan and had also more profound strength, she just could not understand why this Ji Yuan still have so much profound strength.

    Both their profound energies exploded at the same time and started to consume their profound auras rapidly.

    Ji Yuan''s sword aura was the first to be extinguished in the aftermath of their shes.

    Number 2 had expected Ji Yuan to copse first because hecked the rapid resilient and regeneration of the metamorphosis beings.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly disyed a half-step emperor sword in his left hand and at the same time, Ji Yuan forced himself to muster more of his profound energies and he suddenly disyed his Grand Cross profound attack.

    "Life force energies sword?!"

    There was a sh of profound light as Ji Yuan had suddenly cut through the divine sword of Number 2 and two crosses appeared in the thick armor of her body.

    This profound attack exploded brilliant even behind Number 2, leaving the shape of a cross behind the cliffs that were behind her.

    Number 2 was then sent flying and crashing onto the mountain walls as Ji Yuan profound power had exceed her profound power at this instant.

    There was actually a crack in Number 2''s body armor and it did not regenerate.

    However, Number 2 was soon standing and had disyed several waves of her sword energies as she sent Ji Yuan to fly backward with bloody wounds.

    Although Ji Yuan was in a daze now but he saw a glimmer of hope; his Grand Cross had actually damaged Number 2. This means that life force energies attack is the nemesis of the regeneration ability of the metamorphosis being.

    Ji Yuan tried to stand up again to fight Number 2 but Number 2 had already shed to him and had delivered a powerful profound cut at him, causing him to be flung and exploded into the mountain walls!

    "This time, you will surely be dead!"

    All of a sudden, a beam of ck light had fired from Ji Yuan''s true divinity sword andpletely enveloped Number 2 Murong Yue.

    This was Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword and he had used hisst remaining strength to execute it.

    Number 2 Murong Yue roared with burning rage as she sacrificed her bulky left arm which got imploded even as she was flung away.

    The battle was not considered long but it had exhausted Ji Yuan as hey ttened into the walls of the mountains.

    His opponent was a superior immortal of the 9th peak realm cultivation and not just an ordinary 9th realm immortal.

    Every time he had struck blows with her, his very own profound strength would also be consumed.

    Ji Yuan weakly muttered, "So this is the difference between a half-immortal and a true immortal? Why is this Number 2 so strong¡­"

    At the same time, Number 2 Murong Yue was in shock why this Ji Yuan was so strong. If she had not taken the metamorphosis core and gained this new body, she would have been killed by this Ji Yuan instead!

    How could a low tier 9th realm upper half-immortal be stronger than a peaked 9th realm demonic cultivator?!

    Number 2ughed jovially all of a sudden when she had picked herself up.

    It was because she had suddenly spotted Ji Yuan holed into the mountain walls and he was struggling to pick himself up.

    But he had lost all his profound strength and he was even forced to drop both of his divine swords so that he could use all his remaining profound strength to pick himself up.

    Number 2 Murong Yue had won this battle at the cost of her arm but this was of no consequence to her as she could regenerate her arm soon.

    Once again Number 2 renewed her profound aura with her profound strength as she raised her divine sword.

    This time, she would kill this Ji Yuan once and for all and obtained his true divinity sword!

    Ji Yuan of course was able to sense that Number 2 was disying her profound art against him and in less than 3 blinks of an eye, she would be shing next to him.

    As he shouted with a furious look, he had begun to burn his life force energies, "Jiajia! Your death shall not be in vain! I shall take vengeance for you!!!"

    A gentle voice was suddenly heard in his ears and all of a sudden, the time seemed to have been frozen in ce.

    "Ji Yuan."

    It was the gentle voice of Xia Jiajia as she said gently in his ears, "Do not explode your cultivation core yet. Your battle is not over."

    Ji Yuan was in tears, "Jiajia, is that really you? I am going to see you soon¡­"

    Jiajia said gently to him, "Yes, it is me. So, you have finally known of my death. I am so sorry that I am unable to keep my promise to you."

    Ji Yuanmented loudly, "I am the one that is so sorry to you. I am unable to save you from your woeful fate. This is all my fault¡­"

    Jiajia said gently to him, "She lies to you. I''ve exploded my cultivation core during my fight with the Great Demon God. She lies to you so that she could confuse your dao heart."

    "This is all a lie?" Ji Yuan stammered.

    When he had heard what had happened to his Jiajia, he was so moved by anger that he just wanted to hack Number 2 into pieces.

    "That''s right. She can read your profound aura easily when you are enraged."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "Does it matter now? I am spent. If I am in my peak then I can still be able to win her. Losing is only a matter of time in my current condition. Jiajia, I wille and join you¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you can still fight. There is still a little strength in you."

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "What is the point? I can''t see you anymore."

    Jiajia said gently, "If youpose your willpower to fight, we will still see each other again. This, I promise you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I can still see you again, Jiajia? Is it really possible?''

    Jiajia said gently, "Aren''t you hearing my voice now?"

    "This isn''t a hallucination?"

    Jiajia smiled gently, "I am always with you, Ji Yuan. Believe me."

    Ji Yuan asked, "But how do I see you again? How do I know that this isn''t a hallucination?"

    Jiajia said mncholy, "I remember the song that you wrote for me while you are in Spirit Divine Realm¡­"

    Then she smiled gently, "Xu Yifei is now in the Celestial Realm. This is proof that I will keep my promise to you."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is in the Celestial Realm?"

    "If you see her, then you know that this isn''t a dream. Stand up and fight, Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly awakened from his senses and he could suddenly hear Xiang Li and Anyang crying in his inner spiritual sea.

    He did not hear them when he had gone berserk earlier.

    "Xiang Li, Anyang. I am sorry¡­"

    Xiang Li was delighted to hear Ji Yuan again, "Wuwuwu. Big Brother, you can finally hear us now."

    Anyang was also delighted, "My lord, you can finally hear us now."

    Even Little Yui and Aura were delighted too.

    Ji Yuan said woefully, "This is the first time that I still have so much spiritual energies in my inner spiritual sea even as I expended my profound strength. Can I still fight?"

    Anyang and Xiang Li did not reply to him as they materialized outside of Ji Yuan.

    The two of them transformed into two astonishing grown up heavenly maidens before transforming themselves into two beams of light.

    In Ji Yuan''s hands, were his two emperor-step divine swords again.

    Rather to say that it was his physical swords, it was actually his spiritual swords.

    As soon as Number 2 got close to Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan had suddenly picked himself up again and in his hands were his two spiritual swords as he unleashed his grand cross upon Number 2.

    Instead of using his life force energies to explode his cultivation core, Ji Yuan had used his life force energies to channel his grand cross profound art again.

    Because his two emperor-step divine swords were spiritual swords, he directly bypassed Number 2''s divine sword and exploded his grand cross on her injured chest again.

    Number 2 was shocked that her formidable defenses were being bypassed by Ji Yuan that she quickly activated her life saving talisman to escape.

    With a brilliant re of light, Ji Yuan also divided Number 2''s body, causing her to explode in multiple shockwaves in all directions.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Number 2 had already escaped with her cultivation core intact and what was being destroyed were but her metamorphosis exoskeleton armor.

    Ji Yuan had also made a crashnding on the ground and the two spiritual emperor-step divine swords had also disappeared.

    He was astonished at what had happened.

    It was because this was the very first time that he had seen Anyang and Xiang Li in a mature body and they were astonishing beautiful.

    He could not resist asking; What is that just now?

    Anyang answered with a confused look as well: We don''t know either. Just now, I think I have heard the voice of the Great Beyond Goddess talking to us and then she has granted us the spiritual powers of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl so we have transformed into your spirit swords instead.

    Xiang Li was giggling: It is so fun. I wish that I can do this again.

    Ji Yuan asked with a perplexed look, "The Great Beyond Goddess? Are you sure?"

    Aura answered firmly: This is really¡­ the Great Beyond Goddess! She says she can''tmunicate with me anymore as we have consumed too much of the spiritual energies in the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. Wuwuwu.

    Ji Yuan did not take Aura seriously and he was sighing woefully instead: I have heard my Jiajia. You have heard the Great Beyond Goddess. Maybe this is a mass hallucination¡­

    And then Ji Yuan was weeping aloud on the ground, "Jiajia¡­ I have avenged you. I swear that I will destroy the Evil Cultivation Pce for you¡­"

    There was no one around Ji Yuan when he had said that because his battle with Number 2 had turned the entire vicinity into a dead zone, killing all the cultivators that were in the vicinity; the profound shockwaves of the two 9th realm cultivators were too much for most cultivators to bear.

 Chapter 1137 Lu Qingyun

    Chapter 1137 Lu Qingyun

    The Evil Cultivation God was in his throne room when his profound token had suddenly shed into sight and broke in front of him!

    This was the life and death of the profound token of Number 2!

    At the same time, the lifeless and broken body of Number 2 had also been teleported back to the throne room!

    "This is impossible¡­ My ultimate weapon Number 2 has actually been defeated?! This Sword Saint Ji Yuan can actually defeat Number 2? He can''t be a 9th realm cultivator. He must be taken some powerful profound pills and will be facing bacsh too¡­"

    Then he extended his powerful divine sense into the mountains.

    He could not pick up Ji Yuan''s life signature or the presence of the true divinity sword anymore.

    "He must have exploded himself just to kill Number 2."

    The Evil Cultivation God did not know that Ji Yuan had a weak life signature now and even his true divinity sword had returned to his soul sea too.

    Quickly he transferred his Evil Veins Profound Art onto Number 2 to revive her.

    At all costs, he had to revive Number 2 because she was his ultimate killing machine.

    Luckily for Number 2, she is a metamorphosis being and the Evil Cultivation God also has the Evil Veins profound art, so reviving her is just a matter of time but it will be costly to the profound strength of the Evil Cultivation God.

    With a heavy sigh, he said. "This must be a fluke victory."

    He did not know that if Ji Yuan was not injured and if he still got his two most powerful profound art, Number 2 still may not be able to defeat Ji Yuan.

    The fight with Number 2 was unlike Ji Yuan''s other fights where he quickly depleted his profound strength due to ack of spiritual energies in his inner spiritual sea; this time round, he had plenty of spiritual force energies in his inner spiritual sea.

    But he was depleting his profound strength at a rapid rate. Although the loss of his profound strength was temporary and would recover shortly but he had used up too much in such a short time that it caused his profound strength to weaken instead.

    It was like lifting maximum weight continuous and leaving no time for the muscles to recover its tension.

    Because Ji Yuan had been suppressing his rage for the Evil Cultivation Pce in front of his maidens, he was easily provoked by Number 2 when she had described how Saintess Fang Zhenfei had died.

    This totally exploded Ji Yuan''s rage that he had been purposely suppressing for some time and caused him to lose his cool, deviating his original ns to save the rest of his maidens first to prevent more of them from falling into the hands of the Evil Cultivation Pce or perishing in this battle.

    This caused him to fall into Number 2''s ruse of causing him to use up his profound strength in a short time as Ji Yuan was focused on unleashing his profound power against his foe.

    The battle between the high-level immortals were not something that could be won in a single battle because these high-level immortals are extremely hard to kill and have many profound treasures to deploy.

    -

    -

    -

    Outside the gigantic floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Shui Xisi, the Death God Mingwang and the Goddess Alyssa were still locked against one another when several powerful profound energies exploded from the distant mountains.

    Shui Xisi turned ashen immediately; it was because Ji Yuan was actually in that direction.

    The voice of Yun Chi was heard in her ears, "Ji Yuan is in there?"

    She nodded subtlety.

    The Death God Mingwang guessed as much, especially when she saw a ck beam of light earlier that had attacked the Evil Cultivation God.

    Although she had a formidable divine sense but her divine sense was not enhanced by any profound immortal arrays and she was not able to tell if it was really Ji Yuan from where she really was.

    She naturally did not recognize the ck beam of light asing from Ji Yuan as this was a new profound art that she had never seen before.

    But it was her guts feeling when she saw that Shui Xisi had suddenly turned ashen.

    Luckily that ck beam if light hade from Ji Yuan or that enemy would be unimaginable; it was because that ck beam of light contained a devastating amount of life force energies and even immortals like her would hardly escape unscathed from it.

    Life force energies attack can typically halt the regeneration ability of the cultivators to an extent as it also consumed the life force energies of their opponents at the same time.

    However, life force energies are not a profound attack that could be executed easily and it exerts a heavy price at the cost of the cultivators for using it as it also consumes their vital life forces.

    The Death God Mingwang then suddenlyughed to the Goddess Alyssa, "I have decided already. I''m not going to join your side. So, are you all going to attack me instead?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said coldly, "You dare?!"

    The Death God Mingwang said coldly, "25 immortals, a hundred over profound ships and the Asura Cannon¡­ Mmm, I guess that I have to temporary ally with this side if I were to escape today."

    ''He'' then turned to look at Shui Xisi, "How about we form a temporary alliance for a blockade breakout? With your phoenix god beast and you, we do stand a chance. It is just that I do not know who the Asuna Cannon will be aiming for. But it is probably me instead."

    Shui Xisi nodded slowly, "I am perfectly alright with this temporary alliance."

    At the same time, she was also looking quite grim. It was because 25 immortals were really too much for her to handle and shecked the battle instinct of her Sister Feifei.

    All of a sudden two cultivators had shed into the same heavens as them, startling everyone.

    They were Lu Qingyun and Fan Yuqing.

    Shui Xisi were startled, "Sister Yuqing, you are also here!"

    Fan Yuqing smiled, "My good sister. I am here to help you."

    Lu Qingyun turned toward to the Evil Cultivation Pce to say, "Evil Cultivation God. What about we have a deal? If you withdraw your forces from here, I can promise you that I will not intervene in your affairs. Believe it or not, I can neutralize your Asura Cannon."

    The Goddess Alyssa interrupted coldly, "Who do you think you are? You are merely a 7th realm cultivator¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had frozen her words: How could 2 mere 7 realm cultivators be able to fly?!

    The profound voice of the Evil Cultivation God echoed, "So it is you¡­"

    Then he added, "If you promise never to intervene in my affairs again, very well then, they can all go and the Evil Cultivation Pce will not pursue them today."

    The words of the Evil Cultivation God stunned the Goddess Alyssa, Shui Xisi, the Death God Mingwang and almost all the listeners.

    Lu Qingyun simply said, "It is a deal then."

    ---------------------

    Author Note:

    1. Thest chapter actually has more than 2k words and it is like 2 chapters so there isn''t an additional chapter today. But then, I got some time so, here an additional chapter.

    2. Special thanks to Furuya_ll for mentioning that Ji Yuan looked less in rage. So there are some emphasis in the past 2 chapters for Ji Yuan''s emotions.

 Chapter 1138 The Peace Treaty

    Chapter 1138 The Peace Treaty

    The forces that belonged to the Evil Cultivation Pce did retreat, startling Shui Xisi, the Death God Mingwang, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and the others.

    This temporary peace treaty was signed by a binding soul agreement between the Evil Cultivation God and Lu Qingyun.

    With that, the Evil Cultivation Pce and its allies began to retreat from the vicinity.

    When the Goddess Alyssa returned to the Evil Cultivation Pce, she was furious and began to storm into the throne room of the Evil Cultivation God.

    "What is the meaning of this? We have almost got all of them. Don''t you want to obtain Little Princess and Xue Qianxue for yourself? Why are you allowing them to flee? You are screwing our carefullyid ns! Why are we afraid of a mere 7th realm cultivator?"

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly to her, "We have already achieved part of our objectives. Half of the returning golden celestials are either killed or wounded by us while the rest have fled. The ones that have escaped have no base to return to. Some of them may change their minds about joining uster¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa hummed coldly, "This isn''t enough reason. I am doing all these for you and yet you have signed a peace treaty? I don''t understand."

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "There are 3 main reasons why I am signing this peaceful treaty."

    "Firstly, Number 2 has just lost to the Sword Saint Ji Yuan and I am keeping her alive now. It won''t be so quickly until she could recover."

    "What?!" The Goddess Alyssa was shocked. "This is impossible. She is our trump card against Number 1 and the Death God Mingwang. She has the same cultivation realm as you and the two of you are now the strongest cultivator in the entire Celestial Realm. This Ji Yuan can actually defeat her? I thought that he may be a goner already after he had used that 9th realm profound art against the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­."

    The Evil Cultivation God interrupted coldly, "That is what I have thought so too. But he could still deliver a fatal strike against Number 2."

    "But is he dead now?" The Goddess Alyssa asked panicky.''

    The Evil Cultivation God answered, "I hope so. This, I have to ask Number 2ter after I have reconstructed a new metamorphosis body for her."

    Then he added, "As for the second reason, that Lu Qingyun is the reincarnation of one of the three great gods of our Deste Immortal Race¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa gasped with shock, "You don''t mean that he is actually¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God nodded slowly, "We are all his subordinates. He is the one that led us to attack the Nine Heavens in the Ancient City Fortress. Also, he is also the creator of the Asura Cannon and he can stop it from firing as the Asura Cannon contains his true essence."

    The Goddess Alyssa broke into a cold sweat, "But why is he helping the celestials? He should be on our side instead."

    The Evil Cultivation God shook his head, "This, I do not know. Who can know the minds of a Great God?"

    The Goddess Alyssa trembled as she slowly nodded.

    The Deste Immortals have 3 Great Gods that can rival the True Gods of the Deste Immortal Realm; they are Great God Pangu, the World Ruler Fu Xi and the Great Lord Xuan Yuan.

    The Great God that they were talking about referred to the Great Lord Xuan Yuan who is Lu Qingyun now.

    In that battle for supremacy over the Nine Heavens, the Deste Immortals were beaten by the Pangu Immortals and even their Great God Xuan Yuan was killed.

    The Deste Immortals simply could not believe that they would lose to the reincarnated Great God Pangu.

    Although the Great God Xuan Yuan was killed but his soul is eternal and he could reincarnate. Eventually he could regain the memories of his past life. The only way for a True God to forget is to kill him again before he could regain his cultivation realm.

    The Goddess Alyssa muttered, "Maybe the Great God Xuan Yuan have not regained his memories or else he would surely be on our side."

    The Evil Cultivation God slowly nodded, "Regardless, do you know that I have just saved your life? I can sense the killing intents of his true divinity sword against you."

    The Goddess Alyssa was further shocked, "What? The Great Lord Xuan Yuan has regained his true divinity sword? Does it mean that he has actually regained his memories?"

    She was now convinced why the Evil Cultivation God was willing to sign the peace treaty now.

    "But this is not the main reason. The third reason is the main reason." The Evil Cultivation God sighed heavily.

    The Goddess Alyssa blinked her eyes, "What?!"

    She had forgotten about the third reason as the second reason was strong enough to warrant the peace treaty.

    "What is the third reason then?"

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "Number 1 has already seized the Great Deste Divine Pce and killed all the cultivators that I have ced there. We need to seize back the Great Deste Divine Pce."

    The Goddess Alyssa almost fainted on the spot, "What? Impossible! The Great Deste Divine Pce is at least 100 000 miles away. We have already closed all the transfer arrays. How can she travel so fast¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God sighed heavily, "There can''t be a transfer array that she can use. Unless¡­"

    Over the years, he had secretly checked the vicinity around the Great Deste Divine Pce for any secret array points and he was very sure that there were now.

    "Unless, someone is working from within the Great Deste Divine Pce with her and reactivated the existing transfer array for her."

    The Goddess Alyssa shook her head, "It is impossible. Everyone knows that Number 1 has no friends. Unless it is the Great Demon God himself."

    The Evil Cultivation God had suddenly turned ashen at the casual mention of the Great Demon God.

    "Order all profound ships to go at full speed to the Great Forsaken Basin. I don''t believe that a lone fallen immortal cultivator would be able to stand up against our might. I must recapture the Great Deste Divine Pce in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea at all costs."

    "As for the ground cultivators, order them back to their respective cultivation sects first."

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was stillying on the ground and he was weeping for the very first time in hundreds of years.

    Although he had killed Number 2 but he felt extremely empty within his soul. It was because his Jiajia was dead.

    He sworn to make all the killers of Jiajia pay and he shall uproot the entire Evil Cultivation Pce.

    If Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao chooses to remain on the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce then he would kill her as well.

    "Jiajia, you say that we will meet again. But this is but a dream¡­"

    Slowly he picked himself up and dried his tears, having regained some of his profound strength.

    He would continue to fight and kill all the evil cultivators¡­

    All of a sudden the gigantic floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Pce and the apanying profound ships were all flying away.

    This startled Ji Yuan.

    What was more astonishing was that the phoenix god beast was also returning and there were several maidens on it.

    It was not only Ling Feiyue, Little Princes, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress that were returning but he saw Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Shui Qingqing, Ling Tianshui, Hua Baiyue, Hua Wuwu, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Xu Yifei as well.

    "Ji Yuan!!!"

    "You are still alive?!"

    "It is really Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan was soon surrounded by all the maidens who were all weeping and looking at him with great tenderness.

    "Chengxi, Yan''Er, I am back¡­"

    "Qianxue, I am back¡­"

    "Baiyue, Wuwu¡­"

    "Tianshui, Yuxian (Sword Saintess Yuluo), Qingqing¡­"

    "Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei??!"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly seized Xu Yifei, "You are also here??!"

    Xu Yifei and the other maidens were all startled by Ji Yuan.

    Many of them thought that it was because Ji Yuan had missed Xu Yifei the most instead.

    But what Ji Yuan had said confounded everyone.

    "Jiajia says if I see Xu Yifei in the Celestial Realm then it means my dream isn''t a dream. Jiajia says she will see me again if I see Xu Yifei¡­"

    Xu Yifei was looking confused too when Ji Yuan had suddenly said these words to her, "Ji Yuan, I am not your Jiajia¡­"

    But Ji Yuan hugged her tightly as he began to weep emotionally, "Jiajia! I have finally seen you again!"

    Xu Yifei: ???

    All the maidens: ???

    Shui Xisi said uneasily to the other maidens, "The shock of my sister''s death is too much for Ji Yuan to handle¡­"

 Chapter 1139 Xue Qianxues Hideout

    Chapter 1139 Xue Qianxue''s Hideout

    Five Heavens Peak.

    Ji Yuan followed Xue Qianxue, Xu Yifei and the other maidens back to their hideout that was below the deste mists of the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Ji Yuan was finally united with all his maidens again except for Yun Chi, Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong and Feng Minyue who were still missing.

    But Shui Xisi had secretly whispered to Ji Yuan that the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Feng Minyue were actually with Yun Chi. So there was no need to worry for them first and she would be joining themter.

    The reason why Yun Chi did not join them was because she was still assuming the identity of the Death God Mingwang and she had departed after the peace treaty had been signed.

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved when he had heard about this.

    The temporary hideout was a series of caves below the deste mists that Xue Qianxue and the others had found.

    Inside this hideout, there were several hundreds of cultivators.

    As soon as Ji Yuan had arrived with Xue Qianxue and the others, there were many other cultivators that were eager to know the battle result.

    "Ji Yuan, it is really you?" A beautiful maiden had suddenly appeared and she was Fairy Qiu Xiuyu; she was several months pregnant and she had stayed at the hideout.

    Ji Yuan was astonished, "Xiuyu, you are also here?"

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu was Ji Yuan''s mistress when he had gone to the mortal realm for his trial.

    Ji Yuan immediately took Fairy Qiu Xiuyu to his arms and gasped with delight, "I didn''t think that I can get to see you in this ce. Good. This is good. We have finally reunited again."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu was in tears, "Ji Yuan, I have finally got to see you again."

    Ji Yuan said quietly to her, "Don''t cry. I take you to see Li Ye, your master if I see him again."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu nodded as she rested her head on Ji Yuan''s chest.

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "When we found Sister Xiuyu, we didn''t really believe that she knows you and thinks that she is a spy. But Jiajia believes in her¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had stopped halfway because she had suddenly realized that she should not have mentioned Jiajia at all.

    But Ji Yuan said, "It is alright."

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had suddenly taken out a golden battle garb and ced it on Ji Yuan, "I am safe now. Please take back your robe. This will be more useful to you."

    Ji Yuan said, "This is my gift for you¡­"

    But Fairy Qiu Xiuyu smiled to say, "You have already given me 2 heaven-step divine swords and helped me to ascend to the Celestial Realm as a golden celestial. What more do I want?"

    Slowly she wrapped the golden robe over Ji Yuan''s shabby robe.

    The Lovely Empress could not resist a murmur, "I can''t believe that he fights in such an inferior robe that has a poor profound defense for such a long time."

    Shui Xisi was also frowning, "I can''t believe either."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I do have a mystic toga when I was at the¡­"

    All of a sudden, he could not say a word.

    He had actually wanted to say that he had a mystic toga when he was at the Spirit Divine Realm but it was destroyed during his fierce trial while he was taking a trial in the Spiritas Tower.

    However, he was unable to say anything because the mysticws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had prevented him for mentioning anything about his trials inside.

    So he muttered weakly, "I have this half-mortal step robe for the past 200 years, you know. Together we have been through thin and thick."

    When he had said that, many of the maidens were looking at him in an awkward manner.

    It was because Ji Yuan''s robe was not even a full mortal-step robe and it was no better than a junior prot¨¦g¨¦''s robe in some of the maidens'' cultivation sects.

    Even Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were looking quite awkward as they know their old master was quite poor and he had to use all his spirit stones to support so many prot¨¦g¨¦s.

    Xue Qianxue quickly sent the returning cultivators to rest or to work on the repairs of the profound ships.

    Then it was Ji Yuan and all his maidens in a cave together.

    Xue Qianxue then briefed Ji Yuan and the returning maidens on all the updates that had happened in the Deste Celestial Fraternity while they were away.

    Ling Feiyue was astonished, "The Deste Dragon God Longdi is dead?!"

    Among the returning celestials, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had gasped with the loudest shock.

    It was because she belonged to the Death Faction inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and her Death Faction had a bitter rivalry with the Dragon Faction of the Deste Dragon God Longdi.

    She muttered, "My mistress will be overjoyed for sure when she has heard of this news¡­"

    Xue Qianxue smiled to Ji Yuan, "Who is this beautiful maiden? Ji Yuan, you have forgotten to introduce her to us."

    Ji Yuan replied softly, "This is Maiden Lu Jiangsu and her celestial title is the Lovely Empress. She is actually from the Nine Celestial Fraternity. She is someone that I''ve picked up along while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    "What do you mean by pick up along in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? Do you really think that I want to follow you? Stop pasting gold on your face¡­"

    Then she turned to smile with great loveliness to the other maidens, "This Ji Yuan owes me 500 million spirit stones. I am not leaving until he pays me back."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan gave a loud yell, startling Shui Qingqing, Ling Tianshui, Saintess Yuluo, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and the rest of the maidens.

    "Wait for me here¡­"

    He quickly called for Xiang Li and Anyang to bring him inside the Great Oracle Gate.

    When he was inside, he quickly activated the heart link ne that the Cardinal Priestess Xuan Qiaoqiao had given him tomunicate with Little Jie''Er and Tang Manni. He then informed them that they coulde out now.

    The reason why he had used the heart link ne was because he did not want to spend a few days wandering inside the Great Oracle Gate in search of the Delphi Pce.

    Once he was there, he had also quickly found Mu Wan''Er.

    Soon, Ji Yuan had brought Little Jie''Er, Tang Manni and Mu Wan''Er to the presence of the maidens that were in the cave.

    Xu Yifei was astonished and so were Tang Manni as the two sisters wept and embraced each other, unable to express their happiness of seeing each other again.

    Tang Manni was truly astonished, "Sister Yifei, howe you are here?"

    Xu Yifei quietly said, "This is a long story. I''ll tell youter."

    JI Yuan then introduced Mu Wan''Er, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er to everyone.

    Once everyone was introduced, Xue Qianxue began to update Ji Yuan again.

    When Xue Qianxue told Ji Yuan about the part about the poor fate of the cultivators at the Pentecost Mountains where the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is located, Ji Yuan was boiling mad.

    He got up and said coldly, "Lend me a profound ship immediately. I will go there immediately.

    Xue Qianxue was startled, "Ji Yuan, you have not recovered from your injuries yet¡­"

    Ji Yuan smiled to her, "I am alright. I am going to avenge for Jiajia and her celestial sect. So let me go."

    Hua Wuwu was bleary eyed as she immediately said, "Ji Yuan, take me with you!"

    Hua Baiyue was also saying, "Our mistress'' profound ship is the fastest. I will guide you to the Pentecost Mountains!"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Let''s go then!"

 Chapter 1140 The Blue Profound Ship in the Horizon

    Chapter 1140 The Blue Profound Ship in the Horizon

    The Pentecost Mountains.

    At the site of the former Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, now renamed as the Blue Phoenix Depravity Brothel.

    The evil cultivators and its conspirators numbering some 500 were gleefully mocking at the 10 000mon celestials that they had gathered.

    Every day, all the celestials from the nearby mountains would be gathered to the Blue Phoenix Depravity Brothel and be abused by the men and maidens of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Among the 500 evil cultivators was one Wang Bashan and he was a recent Ascended Celestial and also a recent recruit.

    He had found favor with Number 2 and because he was also a golden celestial with no celestial alignment, he was quickly appointed as a one of the branch leaders and outer elder of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    His sacrifices with Number 2 were not in vain as he was quickly given the cultivation resources of the Evil Cultivation Pce to cultivate and of course, he had also gained the powerful protection of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    At the same time, he had also fulfilled his dream of joining the number 1 celestial sect in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and soon to be the number 1 powerhouse of the entire Celestial Realm.

    He also got his dream of screwing at least 10 beautiful celestial maidens a day as the branch leader of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    While he was greedily looking at the beautiful maidens from among the 10 000mon celestials as he was secretly picking in his heart, an inner elder was addressing coldly to themon celestials.

    This was the drill every day.

    This inner elder, Elder Ma Wangjun was pointing to the naked statue of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei in apromising posture and he was saying coldly, "Whoever is willing to spit at the statue of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei will get a bread. Whoever is willing to defile her statue shall get 3 days of ration and shall be given a chance to join the Evil Cultivation Pce asmon prot¨¦g¨¦s. Decide quickly or don''t me ourshes!"

    The 10 000mon celestials were all looking with great defiant and many of them were low level celestials and could not endure the hungry and thirst any longer but yet, they continued to remain defiance.

    In the early days, there were many that could not resist the temptations of the Evil Cultivation Pce and had joined the Evil Cultivation Pce. Those that did eventually be the new tormentors.

    Among them was naturally this Elder Ma Wangjun who was a cultivation sect leader of the nearby Honor Righteous Manor.

    He had quickly defected to save his own skin and gained himself a position of power within the hierarchy of the Evil Cultivation Pce and was even appointed as an inner elder.

    Elder Ma Wangjun said coldly to everyone, "Look at me now. Aren''t I doing just fine? A whole new era has nowe to the Deste Celestial Fraternity. There are no more 7 orthodox celestial ns, the 5 unorthodox celestial sects and the 3 forbidden divine pces anymore. There is only the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    All of a sudden, he was interrupted by a panicky shout from one of his cultivators, "There is a profound ship that is fast approaching!"

    An excitedmon celestial who was an old man stammered and he was in tears, "I know that profound ship. It is the Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s profound ship!"

    Many of the once dead spirits of themon celestials were suddenly aroused and they were all looking excitingly at the sky, "The prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect are finally back?"

    Many of them were suddenly in tears and weeping with joy.

    Elder Ma Wangjun frowned, "It is only a mere profound ship and it can''t even get past the cultivation sect''s formidable defense arrays."

    Then he said to one of the evil cultivators, "Quickly inform Senior Elder Celestial Qianye Baiyue. She is on duty today."

    Then he turned to smile wickedly to themon celestials, "I wonder what the pure maidens of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect really taste like. Hahaha¡­"

    -

    -

    -

    A deste immortal that was part of the Evil Cultivation God''s secret army was ced in charge of region of the Pentecost Mountains.

    His name was the Immortal Teng Haijian and right now, he was ying with three beautiful naked celestial maidens and they were the Supremacy Lian Yuji, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei.

    Immortal Tang Haijianughed, "To think that I will be enjoying such pleasurable services with the celestial maidens. Your services are even better than some of the immortal maidens that I have known. Hahaha."

    Supremacy Lian Yuji smiled coyly as did Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei.

    "As promised, I shall give you a little of my true yang essence for the three of you to cultivate." Immortal Teng Haijianughed jovially.

    The three celestial maidens were all delighted and they were smiling beautifully; they had finally obtained their purposes after giving up their bodies to this Immortal Teng Haijian.

    They were also from the Evil Cultivation Pce and hence, they practiced the evil dual cultivation profound arts.

    However, they were unable to absorb the yang essence of the Immortal Teng Haijian because the cultivation disparity between them were just too high. And instead, they found themselves losing their true yin essence instead to this Immortal Teng Haijian.

    But today they would be blessed by the Immortal Teng Haijian and received his true yang essence and so they were naturally happy about this.

    All of a sudden, the Immortal Teng Haijian said, "Weird. The Cultivation God is noting back to the Pentecost Mountains but he is heading back to the Great Forsaken Basin instead."

    Supremacy Lian Yuji asked curiously, "So, did we win or lose the battle?"

    The reason why she had asked this was because most of the evil cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce and her allies had gone to ambush the returning golden celestials, leaving behind only a few skeleton forces at only some of the most strategic locations of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The Immortal Teng Haijian frowned as he continued to listen to the transmission update that was sent to him via a profound treasure, "We seem to have won but we have also signed a peace treaty to let the remaining golden celestials go."

    Supremacy Lian Yuji was stunned.

    "What is going on here?"

    All of a sudden, Celestial Qianye Baiyue gasped as she had just received a secret profound transmission. "A blue profound ship is fast approaching. It is the Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s ship."

    Immortal Teng Haijian asked, "How many profound ships altogether?"

    Celestial Qianye Baiyue said, "Just one profound ship."

    Immortal Teng Haijianughed jovially, "I''ve heard that there are many beautiful saintesses in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and they must be seizing this opportunity to try to retake their cultivation sect from our hands. I will go and meet them. Hahaha¡­"

 Chapter 1141 Ji Yuan at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect

    Chapter 1141 Ji Yuan at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect

    Ji Yuan was onboarded the blue profound ship that was fast approaching the Pentecost Mountains.

    He had only brought Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi with him.

    Many of his maidens had actually wanted to go with him, especially Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    But he had rejected them all and he had told them, "I will only bring at most 4 of you. I can''t risk all of you in this expedition to avenge Jiajia and her celestial sect. I actually didn''t want to bring anyone of you because the Evil Cultivation God may be in that ce."

    In the end, Ji Yuan had decided to bring Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as they were Jiajia''s core disciples.

    Shui Qingqing had actually wanted toe as she insisted that she was also Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s core disciple now as well.

    But Shui Xisi insisted that Shui Qingqing was too inexperienced and she ought to stay behind while she was the one that should apany Ji Yuan since the Saintess Fang Zhenfei was her sister.

    As for Little Princess, she had reasoned with Ji Yuan that since she used to be from the Evil Cultivation Pce then she ought to redeem for her sins by apanying Ji Yuan.

    And so Ji Yuan quickly popped in some healing profound pills as he set off with Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi.

    6 hourster at full speed, they had reached the Pentecost Mountains and the mountain site of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Luckily for them, they had received words from a scout report while on their way that the Evil Cultivation God won''t be at the Pentecost Mountains and instead, the Evil Cultivation God and the bulk of his main force were heading toward the Great Forbidden Basin.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were bleary eyed when they saw the mountain peaks of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect again.

    As soon as the blue profound ship was near to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the formidable sect''s profound defenses were activated and dozens of profound arrays began to fire its profound energies in their direction.

    Ji Yuan shouted to Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, "Don''t activate the profound shields of the ship. I will help you to deflect the iing profound attacks. We can save some profound fuels for the return journey instead."

    This startled Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as Ji Yuan''s request surprised them.

    Even Little Princess and Shui Xisi were startled too when Ji Yuan had suddenly gone in front of the helm of the profound ship as he raised his true divinity ck sword.

    Here, he used his sword energies of the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to deflect any profound beams that could possibly hit the profound ship.

    Ji Yuan precision was extraordinary and he did not miss as he deflected the iing profound beams with his sword energies.

    After several hundreds of random bursts against the profound blue ship, the profound defenses of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect had stopped. It was because there were no more spirit stones to continue firing at the blue profound ship and it was far too wasteful to shoot all over the heavens for just one profound ship.

    As soon as the blue profound ship was just at the outskirt of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the hundreds of evil cultivators were in a tight formation as they activated yet another profound formation.

    This profound formation was unlike the sect''s profound defense and this one required many cultivators to activate it.

    A huge manifestation of a gigantic blue phoenix could be seen raising from the ground as the heavens and the earth shook with its loud and piercing shrieks.

    Hua Wuwu said coldly, "This is the Profound Manifestation Array of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. To think that these evil cultivators are actually using our own sect''s profound array against us."

    This blue phoenix manifestation was so gigantic and it could easily smash their profound ship with a single profound attack.

    As a matter of fact, Ji Yuan could feel the immerse profound power of this blue phoenix manifestation. One hit and they would all be blown apart by the massive profound energies.

    Shui Xisi said panicky to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, let me summon my phoenix god beast¡­"

    "No need." Ji Yuan said.

    As he answered Shui Xisi, he had already jumped off the ship and sped toward the gigantic Blue Phoenix Manifestation.

    Hua Baiyue, Little Princess and Hua Wuwu gasped as they shouted after him. "Ji Yuan, be careful!"

    With arge yell, Ji Yuan had lifted his ck sword with both of his hands as he disyed his deste cherubim spirit animus and his ultra sword spirit in mid-air.

    Then he had channeled his profound energies within his inner spiritual sea as he swung his ck sword to unleash the Ultrapowerful Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    Ji Yuan sword energies exploded across the heavens like a streak of light as his sword profound energiespletely ripped apart the Blue Phoenix Manifestation.

    Hundreds of evil cultivators coughed out blood when the Blue Phoenix Manifestation was suddenly destroyed due to the sudden bacsh.

    Some even died instantly.

    When Ji Yuan had jumped on the ground and into their midst, all the evil cultivators including Elder Ma Wangjun and Elder Wang Bashan were all shocked.

    All of a sudden, they were further shocked when a 9th realm Ji Yuan in a spendid golden robe had suddenlynded next to all of them.

    Elder Ma Wangjun stammered, "I know you... you are that Sword Saint Ji Yuan..."

    Many of the evil cultivators were stammering too as they had recognized him as the hero that struck down a monstrous 8th rank metamorphosis monster just before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Many of themon celestials had also recognized Ji Yuan as he was the one that brought hope to the beardless cultivators so that they won''t be despised by the naturally born beardless celestials or celestials that lost their beards when they had failed their cultivation breakthrough.

    "It is the Hero Ji Yuan! It is really him!"

    "He... is a 9th realm cultivator?"

    Ji Yuan then went through them and not stopping as he cut down dozens of evil cultivators in a blink of an eye.

    Elder Ma Wangjun could not even react as Ji Yuan simply shed past him as he cut off his head while Elder Wang Bashan had lost his right arm.

    Elder Wang Bashan would have been killed instantly if it was not because of his good reflexes but he had to sacrifice his arm.

    Many of the weaker evil cultivators could not even move as Ji Yuan''s 9th realm profound aura was too oppressing and the killing intents of his true divinity sword caused many of them to be frozen with great fear.

    Ji Yuan was also a speed cultivator and dozens of cultivators were killed as he created a blood bath when he had shed across them.

    At the same time, Ji Yuan had also released his 9 flying swords in all directions, killing and wounding all the evil cultivators that were within range of his sword intents.

    None of the evil cultivators were able to stop Ji Yuan even though they had the superior numbers.

    The disparity between their cultivation realms with Ji Yuan was simply too great a disparity!

    The 10 000mon celestials were all shocked that such a powerful cultivator would suddenly appear and to kill the evil cultivators.

    Many were in tears and were crying jovially. And many more were cheering for Ji Yuan.

    Finally, Ji Yuan had reached the naked statue of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and destroyed it into rubbles with a swung of his sword.

    Then he turned around and shouted to the 10 000mon celestials, "Anyone that can bring a body part of the evil cultivators to pay homage in front of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei shall get a week ration!"

    When he had said that, thousands ofmon celestials rushed forward as they attacked the injured evil cultivators and even the dead evil cultivators were not spared.

    Elder Wang Bashan could not believe that his cultivation life woulde to an end so quickly after he had just ascended to the Celestial Realm.

    However, he was a golden celestial and he was not easily killed by the stampede of themon celestials as he quickly turned around to flee away.

    However his head was quickly rolling on the ground as Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi began to massacre all the remaining golden celestials that were still alive.

    They were all saintesses and it was too easy for them to massacre the golden celestials of the evil cultivators that were still standing, including the stronger 4th realm cultivators.

    A powerful profound voice had suddenly echoed from the pces of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    "Who dares to disturb my Blue Phoenix Depravity Brothel?"

    It was the powerful voice of a 9th realm immortal and his profound voice was earthshaking!

 Chapter 1142 Sword Immortal Teng Haijian

    Chapter 1142 Sword Immortal Teng Haijian

    The powerful profound voice of a 9th realm immortal swept into the vicinity, terrifying themon celestials.

    Ji Yuan quietly said to Little Princess, Hua Baiyue, Hua Wuwu and Shui Xisi. "This is a powerful foe. Let me handle him."

    Then he raised his profound voice to shout coldly, "I am here to take over the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. If you are wise, you should run immediately."

    All of a sudden, an immortal cultivator had suddenly shed in the heaven in front of Ji Yuan and he was looking at Ji Yuan with great disdain.

    He was indeed Immortal Teng Haijian and his immortal title was the Emperor Sword Destroyer. As his immortal title had suggested, he was a Sword Immortal.

    When he had approached, Ji Yuan could feel his powerful sword intents.

    And walking behind him were beautiful golden celestial maiden; they were Supremacy Lian Yuji, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei.

    All 3 of them were mockingly looking at Ji Yuan.

    Immortal Teng Haijian smiled wryly when he saw Ji Yuan, "A mere half-immortal cultivator that dares to be so bold in front me? You are simply courting your own death. A half-immortal even if he can cultivate into the 9th realm is still a False Immortal. Immortals of the same realm has a 3, 6, 9 tier. You are not even qualified to be in the lowest tier. Hahahaha¡­"

    "Unfortunately for you, I am of the highest tier and I am also a Sword Immortal and my immortal title is the Emperor Sword Destroyer."

    Then he had shed his emperor-step divine sword and said coldly, "I don''t know how you have managed to obtain a true divinity sword but today your sword shall be mine. What good luck for me today. Hahahaha."

    "Are you curious why a lofty sword immortal like me will be in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Indeed I am. Why are you all here in the Celestial Realm and what do you all want?"

    Immortal Teng Haijian smiled coldly, "Naturally it is to take over the Celestial Realm and to make it into a realm for the Deste Immortals. Then use it as a base to gather all the reincarnated souls of the Deste Immortals and to take over the Nine Heavens¡­"

    Then he began to sigh heavily, "Thousands of years ago, we have lost to the Pangu Immortals. Hundreds of us have since fled to the Celestial Realm and we have hidden ourselves in the deste mists below the mountains as we await the day that we can finally surface again."

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "And so you have all surfaced again."

    Immortal Teng Haijian smiled, "Not all. Many are still sleeping in the deste mists below and we are a mere few dozens. But that is sufficient for us to take over the entire Celestial Realm since the Pangu Immortals are unable to descend to the Celestial Realm. Hahahaha¡­"

    Then he added, "So, what is your celestial title and name? I don''t kill nameless cultivator and I shall remember your name forever. At least, I shall remember your name because of your generosity in giving me your true divinity sword."

    Ji Yuan slowly answered, "Sword Deity Ji Yuan."

    Immortal Teng Haijian hummed coldly, "Sword Deity?! You really know how to boast. A Sword Deity is a lofty immortal that has at least 3 sword domains. You are not qualified! But I know that you are merely trying to provoke me."

    Ji Yuan said, "Is this important? When you are soon going to die."

    Immortal Teng Haijianughed jovially, "Foolish celestial. You shall regret ever provoking me as I torture you to the death. I may consider sparing your life if you are willing toe forward and repent. You will make an interesting ve for me¡­"

    Ji Yuan had already raised his sword as he gathered his sword intentions to interrupt him. "We shall see."

    Although his opponent was not in a hurry but Ji Yuan was suppressing his anger against all the defilers of Saintess Fang Zhenfei''s holy ground.

    He had only one thing that was in his mind.

    Kill them all!

    Immortal Teng Haijian smirked coldly, "You are using your sword domain so fast? Are you really so desperate? Or are you afraid that you will exhaust your sword intentions as we fight against each other and you will regret not using your sword domain against me?"

    As he said that, the 3 golden celestial maidens that were behind him were allughing and giggling too.

    Ji Yuan ignored them as he willed his Dividing One Sword.

    He was unable to use his life and death domain for the time being as he had exhausted this sword domain earlier today when he had used it to attack the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    As Ji Yuan raised his Dividing One Sword, his sword intentions exploded into a sword domain in the vicinity and he had only one objective and it was to kill this Immortal Teng Haijian.

    Immortal Teng Haijian did not think that Ji Yuan was a threat and in his mind, Ji Yuan was merely a sword saint and not a sword deity as imed. He also thought that Ji Yuan had gasped a sword domain and that he had intended to test his sword domain against him."

    This sword domain of Ji Yuan had suddenly caused him to turn pale immediately as he could sense the powerful concepts of the life and destruction concepts in it.

    The Immortal Teng Haijian quickly disyed his sword intent and gathered his sword intentions to disy

    His sword spirit burst forth from his forehead and even his 9th realm profound aura was enveloped by a powerful annihting sword aura.

    Everyone could see that this Immortal Teng Haijian was not weak!

    "The Great Sword of the Heavens!"

    The heavens were suddenly dark and stirred with dark stormy clouds.

    The heavens and the earth were suddenly shaking violently as a gigantic sword was suddenly seen descending from the clouds

    It was so gigantic that the entire peak seemed like it would be destroyed by this gigantic sword!

    This Immortal Teng Haijian was going to destroy Ji Yuan, along with the entire mountain peak!

    Below him, the three golden celestial maidens the Supremacy Lian Yuji, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei were all terrified.

    "Don''t kill us along with him¡­"

    "He is the one that provokes the immortal lord¡­"

    "We are on your side¡­"

    In a fight for life and death, there was no need for any concerns for the bystanders.

 Chapter 1143 Sword Dao of Melancholy

    <h4>Chapter 1143 Sword Dao of Mncholy</h4>

    The frightened pleads of the 3 celestial maidens the Supremacy Lian Yuji, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei went unanswered.

    It was because in a fight for life and death, there was no need for any concerns for the bystanders or anyone for that matter.

    The powerful descending sword domain of the Immortal Teng Haijian had provoked Ji Yuan; he wanted to kill and also to protect his love ones.

    It was not just the 10 000mon celestials that were in this ce but there were Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu as well.

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had condensed the Dao Fruit that was in his inner spiritual sea. With the aid of his Greater and Lesser Dao of the Heavens, he hadprehended a new sword dao using the Dao Fruit.

    He had created ayer of sword concept on top of his Dividing One Sword and he called it the Sword Dao of Mncholy.

    His Jiajia will always be in his heart. As long as Jiajia lives in his heart, his sword intentions would never falter!

    Ji Yuan also drawn upon the sanctorum power of his true divinity sword as he had not used it yet. Together with his deste cherubim spirit, his sword aura and his ultra sword spirit, his Dividing One Sword exploded upward in a terrifying ck beam of light against the descending Great Sword of the Heavens and the Immortal Teng Haijian.

    Immortal Teng Haijian said in his terrifying immortal voice, "Below a 9th realm immortal god, all the others are just vermin. Do you really think that you are able to defeat a Sword Immortal with your half-immortal body? You are just not fit to even stand in my sight!"

    As Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword struck the Great Sword of the Heavens, there was a mighty sh of profound energies that knocked all the weaker cultivators onto the ground, ttening the many pces of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect immediately with multiple waves of immensely powerful profound shockwaves.

    Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword was being suppressed by the immortal arts of the Immortal Teng Haijian and the ck energies of his Dividing One Sword was being forced to revert backward at a rapid speed!

    Immortal Teng Haijian was astonished at how powerful Ji Yuan really was and he was secretly thinking that he was fighting a true immortal instead as the sword domain that he had just disyed was clearly beyond what a 7th realm cultivator would be able to disy.

    In fact, at the point of impact between their two sword domains, he was actually being overwhelmed by Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword!

    But Immortal Teng Haijian was an immortal and he had many immortal profound arts.

    So he mustered his 9th realm the Great Martial Invincible Force to increase his sword domain by an additional 30% in power.

    Thinking that it was not enough, he had secretly cracked his profound treasure the Great Vault of Life and converted his Great Sword of the Heavens into a life force profound energies profound attack to match Ji Yuan''s life destruction profound energies.

    This in turn pushed back Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword as the profound might of the Immortal Teng Haijian was too overwhelming.

    Ji Yuan''s profound might was indeed weaker than the Immortal Teng Haijian!

    However, it was not because Ji Yuan was a half-immortal as he had actually expanded the spiritual boundaries of his inner spiritual sea when he had merged with his golden avatar.

    The reason why Ji Yuan''s profound might was weaker because he did not have any powerful internal profound art to further increase his profound power.

    And it also got to do with Immortal Teng Haijian''s powerful internal profound art the Great Martial Invincible Force which was a powerful immortal 9th realm internal profound art.

    Moreover, the Immortal Teng Haijian also had tens of thousands of years in his profound cultivation to cumte his profound strength while Ji Yuan''s cultivation foundation was just too young.

    "Die!"

    "Die!"

    "Die!"

    The Immortal Teng Haijian shouted almighty, "All of you will die! Do you really think that the Evil Cultivation God did not anticipate some of you maye during his absence? That is why he has ced me, his right protector immortal in this ce. What good fortune I have that I can soon obtain a true divinity sword to advance my sword dao. Hahaha¡­"

    Such was the profound power of the descending Great Sword of the Heavens, even if Shui Xisi had summoned her phoenix god beast, it would be in instantly by it.

    This Sword Immortal Teng Haijian was on par with Number 2 Murong Yue and was the Evil Cultivation'' God''s secret trump card.

    Today the Immortal Teng Haijian was forced to reveal his true strength as Ji Yuan was a worthy opponent that had forced him to reveal his true strength.

    Even when Ji Yuan was sunken into the ground by the profound pressure above, he did not give up because he cannot abandon his maidens and he further cannot allow his Jiajia''s celestial sect to be a ruin.

    All of a sudden, his ck profound energies had transformed into a beam of pure golden light as Ji Yuan''s Sword Dao of Mncholy had taken effect.

    The Golden Natal Divine Pearl that was within Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea was suddenly assimting into his soul sea, transforming the white misty inner spiritual sea into a golden ocean.

    This startled Aura, Xiang Li, Anyang and Little Yuri as they did not know what was actually happening.

    Why did the Golden Natal Divine Pearl suddenly assimte into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea?

    They did not know that the Golden Natal Divine Pearl had once belonged to the Great Beyond Goddess and it contained her true essence just like the Goddess Tear.

    It was impossible for anyone topletely use this Golden Natal Divine Pearl for their own use and they had to cultivate for a long time in order to use it.

    But Ji Yuan''s Sword Dao of Mncholy is created for Jiajia and Jiajia is the Great Beyond Goddess. And the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that Ji Yuan has been tapping for his spiritual energies all this while has the true essence of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    His Sword Dao of Mncholy had resonated with the Golden Natal Divine Pearl and hence, he was finally able to use the full profound power of the Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

    One must know that not even the Old Reverend Beiyuan is able to fully use the Golden Natal Divine Pearl even though he is a True Divinity.

    Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm had suddenly jumped to the peak of the 9th realm and even his deste cherubim had also turned golden in color, unleashing its full potential.

    His deste cherubim was originally a nine rank deste cherubim but because Ji Yuan was only at the 7th realm previously, he was unable to use the full potential of his deste cherubim. Moreover, he was never a spirit cultivator in the first ce.

    Ji Yuan''s sword aura had also turned golden in golden and even his body had also golden.

    The Immortal Teng Haijian was shocked, "The Golden Invincible Body?! You are not the Great God Pangu. How the heck do you know the Golden Invincible Body¡­"

    His shock soon turned to a loud scream as Ji Yuan golden beam of profound energies not only shattered his Great Sword of the Heavens but alsopletely overwhelming him before disintegrating him to ashes, leaving nothing at all.

    Even the talisman of life that the Evil Cultivation God had left for him was disintegrated as the Immortal Teng Haijian attempted to use it.

    Hisst words were, "True Divinity profound attack¡­ this is a true divinity sword art¡­ impossible¡­"

    Nothing survives the onughter of the golden profound energies that shattered even the dark heavens, leaving a hole in the sky and the heavens began to clear up immediately.

    Ji Yuan was also astonished that the Dividing One Sword would be this powerful.

    No, this was something else and not the Dividing One Sword.

    When the 3 celestial maidens the Supremacy Lian Yuji, Celestial Qianye Baiyue and Celestial Liu Yimei saw that Ji Yuan had killed the Immortal Teng Haijian, they all fell down on their knees to beg for mercy.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, please don''t kill us!"

    "I can be your harlot¡­"

    "I will be your ve¡­"

    "You can use me whatever you like but please spare me¡­"

    "I can give you all my profound treasures¡­"

    Little Princess shouted behind Ji Yuan, "They have the marks of the Evil Cultivation Pce on them. They are the true cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he shed to them and killed them without any hesitations.

    "The 3 of you have a hand in degenerating my Jiajia''s celestial sect too. This is my mercy for you, a quick and painless death."

    When the 3 celestial maidens had died, their lofty dreams of bing a saintess with the true yang essence of the Immortal Teng Haijian had also shattered.

 Chapter 1144 Ji Yuan is Dying

    <h4>Chapter 1144 Ji Yuan is Dying</h4>

    All the evil cultivators were soon put to the sword and Ji Yuan had opened the granary for everyone.

    Ji Yuan said to Shui Xisi, Little Princess, Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu. "I shall remain in this ce to protect it. You can all go back."

    Shui Xisi was startled, "Ji Yuan, you are no afraid that the Evil Cultivation God wille back?"

    Ji Yuan bitterly said, "He will naturallye back and I will do battle with him. But I don''t want to give up on Jiajia''s ce without a fight."

    Then he sighed woefully, "I want to let this mountain be the symbol of resistance against the Evil Cultivation Pce. If the returning golden celestials heard about this, some of them may even head for here to fight against the Evil Cultivation Pce. And¡­"

    He had turned to look at the 10 000mon celestials that were still cheering him from afar, "Themon celestials here need a hero. I can''t abandon them so quickly after I have saved them. Thesemon celestials can''t run too. This region is their home. They would have run away if they have a choice but they can''t. They can''t even fight the profound beasts or the evil cultivators. So I need to be here, to give them a hope even though I may not be able to protect them."

    Shui Xisi slowly nodded.

    Little Princess asked Ji Yuan, "What was that earlier? Your sword art. And¡­ are you really alright?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Of course I am alright."

    Hua Wuwu checked him, "Are you sure that you didn''t take any weird profound pills to increase your cultivation strength or your profound strength? If so, you will soon receive a bacsh for going beyond your cultivation strength."

    Even Hua Baiyue was anxious, "That golden light is a 10th realm profound power that can destroy the entire celestial sect here. It isn''t possible that you will be alright. Don''t lie to us, Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan patted his chest as he said weakly, "I am perfectly alright. Do I don''t look alright to all of you?"

    When he had said that, all 4 of the maidens were nodding at the same time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hua Wuwu said firmly to Ji Yuan, "I am staying here. This is my mistress'' celestial sect. So you have no right to drive me away."

    "Same here!" Hua Baiyue was saying. "And I am sure that the prot¨¦g¨¦s that we have brought with us also agree on this."

    As she said so, she was also sighing heavily.

    It was because in the past several months many of the elders and prot¨¦g¨¦s had died fighting the Evil Cultivation Pce; this included the First Elder and Second Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce, a secret celestial sect that the Saintess Fang Zhenfei had founded.

    As a matter of fact, the resistance groups had already lost more than half of their profound ships since the death of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and the number of cultivators that had joined the Evil Cultivation was increasing very day.

    Even Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had lost contact with the profound ships that were led by Matriarch Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin.

    Diviner Mo Ming and his Mo n''s profound ships were also unknown at this moment.

    This included the others as well.

    It was only Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and some of the smaller allies that had turned up to aid the returning golden celestials.

    Shui Xisi said with a heavy air, "This is my sister''s cultivation sect. Ji Yuan, you shouldn''t be the only one that is safeguarding this ce. I''ll join you as well."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "You have seen how terrifying these immortals are. They can wipe out the entire mountain if they wanted to¡­"

    "I have finally made up my mind," Shui Xisi had suddenly looked woefully at Ji Yuan. "If theye, then it is all the best. I can then take my vengeance against them. Ji Yuan, this is my request."

    Ji Yuan had never seen Shui Xisi so serious before and he nodded.

    Little Princess smiled wryly, "I am stay here as well."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "They are hunting for you, Little Princes."

    Little Princess smiled, "Precisely because the Evil Cultivation God is hunting for me then he won''t destroy this ce so easily."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "It isn''t like that Immortal Teng Haijian is willing to spare you just now when he uses his immortal profound art."

    Little Princess smiled, "That is only because you are too strong for him to handle. Also, we are quite far away. He may destroy this ce but great saintess like me may not really die from his immortal profound art."

    Ji Yuan turned to look at the 4 maidens and the 50 prot¨¦g¨¦s that hade with them before he nodded slowly, "I guess that I can''t persuade the 4 of you. But at least we ought to send a secret message back to inform Xue Qianxue and the rest, right?"

    Hua Wuwu smiled, "That is for sure. But it may take a little longer as we need to mask ourmunications to prevent interceptions. I am thinking of using the profound energies of our profound ship to restore the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect''s defensive arrays again."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "There is no need to mask themunications. We want the whole Deste Celestial Fraternity to know that we are here in this ce. Xue Qianxue''s side will be able to pick up our openmunications in no time."

    "That''s right," Shui Xisi agreed with Ji Yuan. "Why mask ourmunications when we want them to attack us here. At the same time, this ce can also be a symbol of the resistance."

    Ji Yuan said, "That is my n¡­"

    All of a sudden, Shui Xisi had interrupted Ji Yuan. "I don''t understand something."

    "Yes," Ji Yuan asked.

    Shui Xisi looked intently at Ji Yuan, "Are you really at the half-immortal 9th false realm? Howe you are still have so much profound strength? I can''t feel your inner spiritual sea weakening with my divine sense."

    Ji Yuan had used so many profound arts and he was still looking strong.

    Shui Xisi is the daughter of the Great Goddess Celestial Alice and she knows some of the forbidden immortal knowledge.

    And she also knows a few miracle profound arts as well.

    One such example is the Divine Exaltations.

    She was actually nning to use it to neutralize Immortal Teng Haijian''s Great Sword of the Heavens to protect the other maidens earlier but she did not have to use it.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "False realm?"

    Shui Xisi slowly nodded, "Although the false realm can gain you an immortal body but your spiritual boundaries will not increase and it will make ascending to the Immortal Realm extremely difficult. Therefore it is not advisable to advance to the false realm. Even I don''t understand how you are able to defeat that Immortal Teng Haijian and even uses a true divinity profound art. Ji Yuan, don''t lie to us. Are you dying soon? And this is just the golden reflection of your peak just before your cultivation core is shattered?"

    "Ji Yuan, how much time do you have?" Little Princess was suddenly asking woefully.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes: I am dying? But I don''t feel anything at all.

 Chapter 1145 Trust me, I am not Dying

    <h4>Chapter 1145 Trust me, I am not Dying</h4>

    To Ji Yuan''s surprise, he was soon joined by Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shui Qingqing, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    Only Mu Wan''Er and Fairy Qiu Xiuyu were not around as they were taking care of Xue Qianxue''s baby son for her.

    These maidens had taken a profound ship andnded in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect when they had learnt that Ji Yuan was not going back and that he would be camping at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect instead.

    When Ji Yuan saw the maidens, he was a little speechless, "Why are you all here?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "I''ve forgotten to give the Matriarch Shui Xisi the artefact core of Xiao Ruan for safekeeping."

    Shui Xisi was startled, "You have my Xiao Ruan''s artefact core?"

    Xue Qianxue nodded with a heavy sigh, "Jiajia has taken Xiao Ruan''s artefact core from the Evil Cultivation Pce and she has tasked me to give it to you when you have returned."

    Shui Xisi was bleary eyed, "My sister Jiajia is ever so nice to me¡­"

    Her tears had begun to flow again.

    Ji Yuan ignored Xue Qianxue and Shui Xisi for the time being and asked the other maidens, "Why are you all here?"

    "Ji Yuan, don''t interrupt this quiet moment for Maiden Shui Xisi," Ling Feiyue warned him.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    This is only an excuse not to answer me, right?

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously, "How did our lord retake the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect?"

    Little Princess sighed woefully, "This is a long story. I am afraid that Ji Yuan is dying soon."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not."

    Shangguan Yan asked Little Princess, "Please tell us what has happened here? There is a rumor that Ji Yuan has killed a 9th realm immortal."

    Little Princess replied, "This isn''t a rumor. Let me tell you what has happened instead¡­"

    Ji Yuan said with eager look, "Let me tell you what has happened. After a perilous journey to this ce and encountering a terrifying dark storm¡­"

    All the maidens began to gather around Little Princess as she exined, "When we got here, the evil cultivators have activated the cultivation sect''s profound defense against us¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the hell? No one wants to listen to my story? Aren''t I the main character?

    Many of the maidens know that Ji Yuan''s story only has 30% truth in it so they would rather listen to Little Princess instead.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "After a long fight with the dark storm that was as terrifying as the divine cmity, we have managed to make it to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect¡­"

    Anyang giggled to Xiang Li: It seems that no one is interested to know about our lord''s fake story about battling a dark storm.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: We did see a dark cloud on our way here, right?

    Anyang giggled: I don''t remember that part where you battled a dark storm though.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly: I battled it with my sword intentions and hence, you can''t see it unless you have my level of sword dao.

    Anyang chuckled: Well, I don''t and no one see it too.

    Ji Yuan frowned: Perhaps next time I should let you witness the terrifying power of the dark storm instead¡­

    Xiang Li chuckled: Big Brother, you know. If you skip that storm part and get to the main point instead, your maidens may be willing to listen to you.

    Ji Yuan said with an ugly look: And skip the exciting prologue? Never!

    Little Princess was now saying, "You didn''t see how ugly Ji Yuan''s face was when he was battling with that Sword Immortal Teng Haijian. He looks extremely angry and ugly¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he had heard her, "I will be ugly? And how do I look angry and ugly at the same time? Do you have to add ugly when you talk about me?"

    Shui Xisi said to the other maidens, "I was there too. You didn''t see how ugly Ji Yuan was at that time. He was even more terrifying than the dark storm at that time¡­"

    "Terrifying looking isn''t the right word," Hua Wuwu pointed out. "Horrible looking is the right word to be used on Ji Yuan at that time¡­"

    Hua Baiyue said, "No, he is terrifying, horrible looking and ugly at the same time¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Are they making up stories about me?

    Little Princess continued, "That Sword Immortal Teng Haijian has a powerful sword domain. This is not only an immortal art but also his sword domain that is called the Great Sword of Heavens¡­ and Ji Yuan was not his match¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned: I won, you know.

    He could not resist adding, "My profound sword art is called the Dividing One Sword and I''ve learnt it when I was in the Dark Abyssal Realm. This Dividing One Sword is a sword art that I''ve learnt inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. In order to enter this ce, I have to obtain two keys from two abyssal maidens. s, I was so charming that I was able to charm the two of them into helping me to enter that ce¡­"

    "Ji Yuan actually like the abyssal maidens?"

    "He got a fetish?"

    "He may be handsome but the abyssals are ugly¡­"

    "You mean Ji Yuan has to sacrifice his body to obtain this Dividing One Sword? This sacrifice is a little too big¡­"

    "I cannot imagine Ji Yuan together with an abyssal¡­"

    "I have heard that the abyssals practice the infernal profound art¡­"

    "Sanctuary of the Forbidden? He must have picked up some forbidden profound art there¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Little Princess sighed heavily, "Then Ji Yuan burned all his true essence and his sword art that was a wave of ck profound energies became golden in color. He himself turned golden¡­"

    Shui Xisi nodded, "When true essence is burnt, a strong golden aura can be seen with the visible eyes¡­"

    Little Princess nodded woefully, "And because of this, Ji Yuan is now in his golden reflection time and that is why he is willing to stay behind to sacrifice himself. It is because his days are numbered¡­"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Actually I am perfect alright. Why don''t you examine my inner spiritual sea? I am really not dying or anything."

    Xue Qianxue smiled and turned to the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "Maiden Yifei, you don''t mind using your spirit divine sense to check on Ji Yuan? Your divine sense is sharper than anyone of us."

    Xu Yifei smiled as she shook her head, "I can''t. I promise my mistress that I won''t enter Master Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea again."

    The Lovely Empress smiled, "Maybe let me examine his impure inner spiritual sea?"

    Ji Yuan immediately said panicky, "Anyone can examine my inner spiritual sea except for you because you have an impure mind."

    The Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Shui Xisi said, "We can all examine Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea together. Maybe we can find a cure for him¡­"

    Then she said tenderly to Ji Yuan, "You don''t mind if we examine your inner spiritual sea?"

    Ji Yuan looked at all the beautiful maidens in front of him as he looked dangerously at them, "I don''t mind seeing all of you naked in my inner spiritual sea at all."

    All the maidens: ¡­

 Chapter 1146 Shui Xisi checking on Ji Yuans soul sea

    Chapter 1146 Shui Xisi checking on Ji Yuan''s soul sea

    In the end, it was Shui Xisi that had entered Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea to inspect the degree of his cultivation damage while the other maidens waited for her to tell them the horrible results.

    Xiang Li giggled softly, "Maiden Xisi, you are here!"

    Anyang was also giggling, "Maiden Xisi is here to visit us."

    Aura asked, "I know this sister¡­"

    Shui Xisi was acquainted with Xiang Li and Anyang but she did not know Aura. "Who is she?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "She is Aura and she is a spirit nt."

    Aura protested immediately, "No! I am a divine tree!"

    Shui Xisi was gasping with disbelief, "A spirit nt? A divine tree?''

    Did Ji Yuan tell her that he got a divine tree or worm in his spiritual sea when they were taking the trial together in the Spiritas Tower?

    Ji Yuan was expecting for Shui Xisi to be fully naked as she entered into his spiritual sea.

    But to his disappointment, she was fully clothed.

    "What the heck, Sisi? Why are you fully clothed?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "All my clothing are spirit profound treasures, that''s why¡­"

    All of a sudden she was gasping with great shock.

    It was because she could suddenly see from beneath the spiritual mists of the Deste that Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea was golden in color instead of like the blue ocean.

    Not only that, his spiritual energies were also extremely dense.

    She was actually expecting a dry inner spiritual sea when she entered into Ji Yuan''s soul sea.

    "Ji Yuan, what is going on? Why is your spiritual sea golden in color? Did you eat anything wrongtely?"

    Ji Yuan said to her, "Sisi, do you remember that Golden Natal Divine Pearl that Old Reverend Beiyuan has given me?"

    Shui Xisi nodded, "Yeah, I remember that. So?"

    Ji Yuan exined, "That Golden Natal Divine Pearl melts in my inner spiritual sea and it has be like this."

    Aura interrupted, "This is better now. I can grow faster now."

    Shui Xisi extended her divine sense into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea before saying, "There are twoyers of spiritual sea in your inner spiritual sea. The secondyer is at the bottom and it is extremely rich in spiritual energies. In fact, it seems to be producing spiritual energies endlessly for you¡­"

    She took a startled look at Ji Yuan, "You are now like a walking spiritual mountain."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Is that so? It is no wonder why I didn''t feel tired at all."

    Shui Xisi flew down into Ji Yuan''s spiritual sea and was startled at the spiritual boundary, "Ji Yuan, howe your spiritual boundary is like the 9th realm cultivation? This isn''t supposed to be happening at all."

    "What do you mean?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

    Shui Xisi said to him, "You are a half-immortal. Do you know that even if you managed to cultivate to the half-immortal 8th realm and even the 9th realm, the spiritual boundary of your spiritual sea will not increase. That is why that Immortal Teng Haijian says that you are ranked as the lowest tier immortal. Without expanding your spiritual boundary, you won''t have the sufficient strength to use the immortal profound arts and to sustain yourself against the true immortals. Even if you are stronger than them, all they need to do is to oust you and they will win."

    Ji Yuan asked her weakly, "Are you asking me for an exnation or are you here to check my condition?"

    Shui Xisi said with disbelief, "I don''t understand this at all."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "What is so unbelievable about this? Seeing is believing."

    Shui Xisi said solemnly, "When your cultivation realm breakthrough to the 8th realm cultivation, your spiritual boundary will also increase tremendously but you have to spend several decades, even hundreds of years to regain your spiritual energies foundation. It is because you have consumed all your spiritual sea to expand your spiritual boundary during a realm breakthrough. You are a cultivator and I am sure that you understand this perfectly, right?"

    Ji Yuan said, "Of course I know this. When I use my Deste Cherubim to increase my 7th realm cultivation strength to the 8th realm, my spiritual sea is actually still at the 7th realm. Hence, my spiritual energies drain quite fast when I am trying to use my profound arts to the 8th realm cultivation strength¡­"

    Then he paused to add, "When I had breakthrough from the 6th to the 7th realm cultivation, it took me several months to stabilize my spiritual energies foundation too. Haha¡­ of course I know what you mean¡­"

    "Several months?!" Shui Xisi gasped with shock, "How do you managed to stabilize your spiritual energies foundation in your spiritual sea in just several months? How many high grade spirit stones and profound treasures did you actually consume? This is quite impossible to regain your cultivation strength in only a few months."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Because I am a genius, you know."

    Shui Xisi said with disbelief, "You are dirt poor and you don''t have any cultivation resources. You probably need 10 years of nonstop cultivation to build your spiritual energies foundation for your new seventh realm."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Are we talking about my seventh realm or are we talking about my 9th realm?"

    Shui Xisi said solemnly to Ji Yuan, "Don''t you get it? It takes a 100 times as long for the 8th cultivation realm than the 7th realm and it takes another 100 times to expand and stabilized your 9th cultivation realm. Didn''t you spend 100 years for your 7th realm cultivation breakthrough?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "Actually I have only spent thest 10 years trying for my 7th realm cultivation breakthrough. I was hiding for the other 90 years."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She weakly muttered, "I have to admit that you are a genius but even a genius needs time to cultivate and to stabilize his cultivation foundation. How long did you use to expand and stabilized your 8th and 9th realm?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "If I tell you, I didn''t do any cultivation, do you believe me?"

    Shui Xisi said coldly, "Ji Yuan, what have you been hiding from me?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Little Yui, are you there?"

    All of a sudden, a ck sword had emerged from Ji Yuan''s spiritual sea and transformed into a little girl. "Yes, master?"

    Shui Xisi was shocked, "Isn''t this ck sword the one that you have used during the fight with the Immortal Teng Haijian? I almost forgotten to ask you about this true divinity sword. Come to think of this, this ck sword does look familiar to me¡­"

    "It is the ck sword that we had seen inside the Star Goddess Pce," Ji Yuan interrupted her.

    Shui Xisi gasped, "Howe you have this sword?!"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I did tell you that the canvas painting of this ck sword attacked me and disappeared in my soul sea. But you didn''t believe me."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She waspletely dumbfounded; this was too unbelievable for her to believe¡­

    She had rememberedughing at Ji Yuan, along with the Lovely Empress when Ji Yuan had told them about it.

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "Alright then. Then how did you manage to expand the spiritual boundary of your cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "If I tell you that I am the True Devil God, will you believe me?"

    Shui Xisi bitterly said, "I am willing to believe anything that you are saying now."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I have found the Golden Avatar of the True Devil God inside the Forbidden of the Sanctuary and merged with it after much difficulties."

    Xiang Li and Anyang immediately rolled their eyes when Ji Yuan had mentioned the words ''after much difficulties''.

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "I know. You have sacrificed your body to obtain two keys from two abyssals in order to enter that ce."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Not really. I have only banged one of them. But I did bang their Cardinal Priestess though. Not once but many times. And I also banged several maidens while I was in the Dark Abyssal Realm. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "You are hopeless, Ji Yuan¡­ don''t ever touch me again."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1147 Shui Xisi is stunned by Ji Yuan

    Chapter 1147 Shui Xisi is stunned by Ji Yuan

    Shui Xisi asked Ji Yuan, "What else had happened while you are inside the Dark Abyssal Realm? Come to the point and stop beating around the bushes."

    She was with Ji Yuan in the Spirit Divine Realm and she had only missed one trial with Ji Yuan and his cultivation strength had increased to an unbelievable level. Moreover, he also got a true divinity sword too.

    Ji Yuan said rather awkwardly, "Well, I''ve also banged three abyssal maidens and they all have a unique supreme yin body. Their supreme yin bodies are the Pure Yin Divine Body, the Extreme Yin Divine Body and the Nine Yin Divine Body. But this is all an ident¡­"

    Shui Xisi was startled, "What? You have found and banged 3 abyssal maidens with the three Great Yin Heaven Bodies?"

    Ji Yuan was surprised that Shui Xisi knows about this too, "Sisi, you have heard of the 10 Supreme Yin Bodies too?"

    Shui Xisi smiled bitterly, "Of course I have heard of it. The 4 Greater Supreme Yin Bodies are the dream cultivation cauldrons of the male cultivators and the Evil Cultivation Pce. The most powerful yin constitution is of course the Great Yin Heaven Body."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I wonder if I may encounter the Great Yin Heaven Body one day. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi quietly said to herself: My Sister Feifei has the Great Heaven Yin Body¡­ she has the super rare yin constitution that only appears once every few million years.

    But she quickly said to Ji Yuan, "Do you know how rare is even one of the Greater Supreme Yin Bodies are? It can even stark a great war for the cultivators. And you have found 3 and banged 3 of them. I just can''t believe it. It''s no wonder why your spiritual boundaries are able to expand. I just can''t believe your disgusting luck with the abyssal maidens¡­"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "Actually, they are quite beautiful¡­"

    All of a sudden Shui Xisi had suddenly interrupted him. "Ji Yuan, this isn''t right. Howe you can tell me about what you did inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? We are not in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth anymore."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "If I tell you that I have the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with me in my spiritual sea, will you believe me?"

    When Shui Xisi had heard Ji Yuan, she had wanted to faint on the spot. "What? You have got the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? How is it possible? It is a Beyond Divinity power. You cannot possibly handle it. Do you know that with this artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, you can¡­"

    All of a sudden, she shut up immediately as she had realized that she was revealing too much of the immortal secrets to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan asked her curiously, "What is it?"

    Shui Xisi sighed softly, "Never mind. Since my sister wants you to find it and you have found it, you can keep it. Maybe¡­"

    She quickly said, "I mean since you have the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, that means that maybe that is why you can freely talk about your trial experiences because the restrictivews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth isn''t binding on you as you have it¡­"

    Then she was giggling softly, "Ji Yuan, I love you!"

    All of a sudden, she had a beautiful flush before she flew out of his spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan growled, "Of course I know you love me. But why exit when I haven''t even told you 1/10 of my epic story yet¡­"

    Anyang said to him, "I think that she must have thought that you have banged an ugly abyssal and she is saying she loves you no matter what."

    Xiang Li giggled, "I totally agree with Anyang too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I think the two of you are talking rubbish."

    -

    -

    -

    When Shui Xisi had regained her senses in her real body after examining Ji Yuan with her divine sense, she turned around to smile to the other maidens. "I am a little disappointed to tell of you that this stupid Ji Yuan isn''t dying at all. In fact, he is quite alive."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered, "Stupid Ji Yuan?"

    When the other maidens had all heard Ji Yuan, they were all looking extremely relieved.

    Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Hua Wuwu and Bai Baiyue were all looking at one another with a weird look.

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "This, isn''t possible. We have seen Ji Yuan using several profound arts that are beyond his strength. And also he can''t really be a 9th realm cultivator when we are all 7th realm cultivator. This should only be a temporary thing, am I right?"

    Many of the maidens were nodding.

    The difference between a 7th realm and a 9th realm disparity is just too big.

    And these maidens did not want too big a disparity with Ji Yuan.

    Many of the maidens have a higher cultivation realm than Ji Yuan when he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they found it hard to believe that Ji Yuan would advance so quickly in such a short time.

    If there were no bacshes, then they really found it hard to believe.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "So now, all of you believe that I am not dying? Sisi can proves it for me."

    Shui Xisi nodded slowly, "I am afraid that this stupid Ji Yuan isn''t about to die anytime soon."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Wait till I bang you until you scream for help, Sisi¡­ then I shall have my sweet revenge for calling me stupid in front of my maidens.

    Then he looked at the other maidens and also had the same though: Wait till I bang all of you and the rest of you are kneeling in front of me to beg me for my mercies¡­

    Shui Xisi then turned to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu to say, "Sister Jiangsu, I think it is advisable for you not to cultivate into the half-immortal 8th cultivation realm. Or else it would be hard for you to ascend to the immortal realm in the future. Ji Yuan has some unusual lucky urrences in his trials."

    "Oh?" The Lovely Empress blinked her golden eyes but she returned a nod; the two of them had be very close sisters now especially after they had been through the Star Goddess Pce together where they faced certain death.

    Ling Feiyue was ever so curious, "But how you exin Ji Yuan''s 9th realm cultivation and his profound arts? He has be so strong now? What kind of lucky urrences did he have?"

    Shui Xisi smiled bitterly, "You know that I can''t reveal what has happened inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to all of you, right?"

    She also can''t tell the maidens that Ji Yuan had banged 3 ugly abyssal maidens for their Greater Supreme Yin Bodies too.

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "Ji Yuan isn''t dying. He is perfectly alright."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Of course I am. That''s what I''ve been saying all along¡­"

    Then he had be very solemn as he said to the all maidens, "Since all of you are here, shall we all pay a solemn homage to Jiajia together?"

    When Ji Yuan had said this, all the maidens were all nodding solemnly too.

    Even though Xu Yifei had never seen Jiajia before, but she had heard Ji Yuan calling for her in his dreams and even saw her statues while she is in the Celestial Realm.

    She admired this Jiajia whom everyone called the Saintess Fang Zhenfei and she now knows why Jiajia had such an important ce in Ji Yuan''s heart.

 Chapter 1148 Retaking the Great Desolate Divine Palace (1)

    Chapter 1148 Retaking the Great Deste Divine Pce (1)

    The Great Forsaken Basin, in the region of the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea.

    And 5 dayster.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce apanied by some 100 profound ships, consisting of 30 000 cultivators had finally reached the Great Forsaken Basin after 5 days.

    Some 20 profound ships were forced to fall behind when they had run out of profound energies.

    Many of the 100 profound ships were dangerously running out of profound energies when they had finally reached the Great Forsaken Basin.

    The Evil Cultivation God was in his throne room with the Goddess Alyssa when he had suddenly received news that the Pentecost Mountains had fallen to the rebels and it was taken by the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    He was shocked.

    It was because this Sword Saint Ji Yuan had also just defeated Number 2 Murong Yue and he would have killed her if not for her life saving profound treasure.

    Even the Goddess Alyssa was shocked when she had received the secret transmission from their scouts.

    "This is impossible! How is it possible for this Sword Saint Ji Yuan to capture the Pentecost Mountains?"

    The Evil Cultivation God slowly said, "Sword Immortal Teng Haijian is in charge of safeguarding the Pentecost Mountains region and he is an extremely powerful immortal. It is impossible that he can be defeated and let alone by this Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Isn''t he supposed to die after his narrow victory against Number 2?"

    The Goddess Alyssa was trembling, "Did we overlook something?"

    The Evil Cultivation God and the Goddess Alyssa did not pay any attention to the fight between Number 2 and Ji Yuan because they had all assumed that it was an easy win for Number 2.

    Moreover, the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had actually covered 3 vast mountain ranges and there were 3 major temporary settlements that had been built.

    These 3 mountain ranges had actually covered hundreds of mountains each and the fight between Number 2 and Ji Yuan were in their blind spots.

    The Evil Cultivation God and the Goddess Alyssa were distracted by the appearance of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Little Princess that they did not pay a lot of attention to the fight between Number 2 and the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    Also, they did not expect for the Sword Saint Ji Yuan to recapture the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the Pentecost Mountains almost directly after his battle with Number 2.

    ording to their scout reports, this event had taken ce 4 days ago.

    Neither the Evil Cultivation God or the Goddess Alyssa had thought that Sword Saint Ji Yuan was a threat to them as their main enemies were Number 1 and the Death God Mingwang.

    The irony thing was that Number 1 and Death God Mingwang were both the aides of the Great Demon God and they used to be on the same side as them.

    One must know that the Demonic Deste Immortal Races and the Deste Immortals were actually temporary allies.

    After the Deste Immortals had lost thest war against the Pangu Immortals, many of them like the Evil Cultivation God were forced to take refuge in the Celestial Realm.

    To their surprise, they had found that the 3 True Gods of the Demonic Deste Immortal Races had actually made use of them to enter the Celestial Realm instead of aiding them against the Pangu Immortals.

    Many of them felt betrayed by the Great Demon God, the Deste Dragon God Longdi and the Death God Mingwang.

    The Deste Immortals had atst realized that the Great Demon God never had the intention to aid them against the Pangu Immortals.

    Instead, the Great Demon God had his own ns and he had even forced many of the Deste Immortals to submit to him and he had even seized their domains in the Deste Immortal Realm.

    Because the Deste Immortals had lost their Great Lord Xuan Yuan and many of their Citadel Great Lords, they were forced to submit to the Great Demon God.

    That was how the Evil Cultivation God was forced to help the Great Demon God.

    The Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian was a high immortal among the Deste Immortals and he had swallowed his pride to serve the Great Demon God Hong Meng.

    For several thousand of years, he had secretly looked for the other Deste Immortals and forming his own secret army while he plotted against the Great Demon God.

    And he had finally seeded.

    Now all he needed to do was to convince both the Death God Mingwang and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao over his side so that he could reign unopposed in the Celestial Realm.

    But he suddenly got two new enemies that had suddenly appeared.

    One was the Matriarch Shui Xisi of the Water Melody Pce.

    The second one was the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    The Evil Cultivation God was now looking extremely displeased.

    The Goddess Alyssa asked the Evil Cultivation God, "So, what is our n now?"

    The Evil Cultivation God slowly said, "It seems that Number 1 is opposed to us now. Kill Number 1 and seize back the Great Deste Divine Pce. With so many immortals on our side as well as the Asura Cannon, Number 1 won''t be our match."

    The Goddess Alyssa said, "That is, if Number 1 did not run away. She has 5 days to run. We don''t know if she is actually in the Great Deste Divine Pce and if so, why didn''t she run away?"

    The Evil Cultivation God was quiet.

    The Goddess Alyssa slowly said, "I''ve got an uneasy feeling about this. It is like she is purposely waiting for us there and¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God interrupted coldly, "Are you trying to say that the Great Demon God is also there waiting for us?"

    The Goddess Alyssa slowly nodded.

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "Even if that is so, it is impossible for the Great Demon God to recover from his injuries and from the damage to his cultivation core. He is of no threat to us."

    The Goddess Alyssa said slowly, "How do we know if that is the real Great Demon God?"

    The Evil Cultivation God had suddenly turned ashen.

 Chapter 1149 Retaking the Great Desolate Divine Palace (2)

    Chapter 1149 Retaking the Great Deste Divine Pce (2)

    A profound ship that carried some 300 cultivators were lowered down into the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea. Among them were 1 8th realm cultivator, 3 saints, 6 supremacies and 9 golden celestials.

    The Evil Cultivation God had sent them to scout the Great Deste Divine Pce as his advance party as he did not want to take the risk of investigating the Great Deste Divine Pce himself.

    This profound ship approached cautiously and was prepared to make for the run if they were attacked by the profound arrays of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    But there were none as they approached closer and closer to the Great Deste Divine Pce even as their profound ship sunk deep into the deste mists.

    If they got attacked then their anxiety would be eased.

    But they did not and this caused their anxiety to surge instead.

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu was in charge of this scouting expedition and he was also nervously standing on the deck of the profound ship.

    In fact, he was preparing to fly off on his own at the first sight of trouble and abandoning all his subordinates.

    He was an immortal and he had lived so long as to know that his life was more precious than the celestial cultivators.

    Immortal Aotian Heimu was actually not willing to fight for the Evil Cultivation God or for anyone and he was happy to dwell out of sight from the celestial cultivators below the deste mists.

    However, the Evil Cultivation God had found him and forced him to honor his oath of reviving the greatness of the Deste Immortals.

    He was naturally timid and he was even more timid when he was told that he was given the mission of investigating the Great Deste Divine Pce of the Great Demon God that had lost allmunications with the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    His request to add more scouting profound ships were rejected as the Evil Cultivation God did not want to risk his precious profound ships.

    Therefore, it was only the Immortal Aotian Heimu that was sent for this scouting expedition.

    He got a bad feeling that today was a bad day for him.

    Their profound ship was now floating in the dark depths of the deste mist; below were all mountains and dangerous profound deste beasts.

    Luckily for them, they had a map of this ce so they know that they were not descending and crashing into the mountains below.

    Soon, they had spotted the undermountains below and the loomingrge shape of the Great Deste Divine Pce was seen.

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu muttered, "If anyone sees Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, kill her immediately. You know how she looks like from the profound images of the memory stone."

    The 3 saints and the cultivators on the deck of the profound ship immediately answered loudly, "Yes, great immortal!"

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu hummed coldly at their enthusiasm and he was cursing them for their ignorance: Do you all know who Number 1 is? You think that I am able to defeat her if she turns up?

    Just as he was thinking about all these, there were two shes of shadows and two beautiful elfin maidens had suddenly appeared on the deck.

    This startled the Immortal Aotian Heimu as he did not even sense their presence when they hade.

    But he had quickly recognized them as Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer and Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire.

    Number 3 said coldly to the Immortal Aotian Heimu, "I would suggest that you and your cultivators do not attempt to make a move if you want to live."

    A saint shouted angrily, "Do you know who are you talking to¡­"

    Number 5 Yao Hong had suddenly raised her divine sword from afar and this saint had exploded into fiery profound energies that shattered his remains everywhere, stunning all the cultivators that were with him.

    She said coldly, "No one asks you to speak."

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu smiled weakly to Number 3, "What do you want?"

    Number 3 said coldly, "Good. You did not attempt to attack me or to call for help. But then, it is futile if you try to. Firstly, you can''t defeat me and secondly, your profound ship is enveloped by the profound power of the Great Demon God and you can''t send anymunications anyway."

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu had turned ashen, "What?! The Great Demon God is still alive?"

    Number 3 hummed coldly, "The Great Demon God is more alive than you think it is. You have only one option now and that is to surrender to the Great Demon God."

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu said without hesitation, "I surrender. Let me join the Great Demon God. I will be loyal to the Great Demon God."

    His sudden surrender shocked the cultivators that were with him.

    Their opponents were only two and they had more than 300 cultivators. Did their immortal leader just surrender without a fight?

    lights¦­¦Ïvel Even Number 3 was frowning with surprise as she slowly said, "This is a little too unexpected and a little too easy¡­"

    Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire hummed angrily, "You are so lucky to have just escaped with your life."

    She was literally bursting with boiling rage; for several months she had suffered at the humiliating hands of the Evil Cultivation God, the Goddess Alyssa and Number 2 Murong Yue.

    If she did not receive an order for the Great Demon God to spare this scouting ship if they would to surrender, she would have killed everyone onboard this profound ship immediately.

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu was looking quite relieved that he had just escaped with his life and he could feel Number 5 Yao Hong''s killing intents against him.

    Number 5 Yao Hong then stared coldly at Immortal Aotian Heimu, "I remember you¡­"

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu had turned ashen immediately; it was because he had humiliated Number 5 Yao Hong and had used her when she was down.

    He just could not understand how Number 5 and Number 3 could have restored their cultivation strength so quickly.

    Their cultivation strength had dropped as they were being used as depraved living cauldrons for the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Just as Number 5 Yao Hong had wanted to say more, an extremely beautiful maiden in white was heardughing alluringly. "That is enough. Have you forgotten what the Great Demon God had said? The Great Demon God had said that the Evil Cultivation God would only dare to send one profound ship to check things here and he is not wrong."

    This extremely alluring maiden was indeed Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily and she had been floating above them for a long time.

    Her short skirt was really short and her white jaded legs were really slender and beautiful. From where the Immortal Aotian Heimu and the other cultivators were standing, they could even see her white panties from under her skirt.

    But Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao did not mind that they were looking as she was from the demonic deste race and they did not really care for their modesty as much as the celestial maidens.

    Also, the Immortal Aotian Heimu and his cultivators were in no mood to appreciate the beauty of Number 1 at this moment and they were all fearing for their lives.

    When Number 1 had appeared, they were all suppressed by her profound aura and they were all terrified.

    Number 5 Yao Hong immediately ceased her anger as she greatly feared Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and did not dare to mutter a word in her presence.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer said coldly to the Immortal Aotian Heimu, "Shouldn''t you do something to prove your new loyalty to the Great Demon God? Why don''t you tell the Evil Cultivation God that you have now entered the Great Deste Pce unopposed?"

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu had finally realized why they had spared him. Whether he had agreed to surrender or not, they would still force him to lure the Evil Cultivation God and the other deste immortals to the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Then Number 3 continued with a smile to him, "But in order to ensure that you do not utter anything undesirable, you don''t mind letting me putting a ve mark on you, am I right?"

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu slowly nodded; he did not have much of a choice as he only wanted to live.

 Chapter 1150 The Great Demon Gods Master Plan

    Chapter 1150 The Great Demon God''s Master n

    5 Days earlier when Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had just used a profound treasure to teleport directly to the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The Great Demon God Hong Meng was already waiting for her in his throne seat as he smiled to her, "s, Number 1. Wee back. Since you were gone, many things had changed around here."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded, "It seemed that the former Evil Cultivation Master has now dered himself as the Evil Cultivation God¡­"

    "And also, the Dragon God Longdi is also dead too." The Great Demon God sighed.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao asked, "isn''t this good for you? You actually don''t need the other two true gods to help you and you want to keep them away from the Deste Immortal Realm while you are here."

    The Great Demon God smiled wryly, "s, you really know me so well."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao merely said without showing any interest, "I have been with you for the past several thousand of years. That is enough for me to know you."

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "Unfortunately, that is only for you. Some others like Yin Xian (the Evil Cultivation God) doesn''t seem to know me well."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly, "He is forced to join you anyway. So you can''t me him. Anyway, what had happened since I was gone?"

    The Great Demon God smiled as he pointed his old fingers at her and a shback began to y in Ding Xiaoxiao''s head.

    She saw the events that had happened when Saintess Fang Zhenfei had attacked the Great Deste Divine Pce on her own.

    And the Great Demon God and the Saintess Fang Zhenfei had fought against each other.

    Then the betrayal by the Evil Cultivation Master Yin Xian, the Goddess Alyssa and Number 2 Murong Yue had happened.

    The Evil Cultivation Master had then absorbed the profound strength of the Great Demon God with his Evil Veins Profound Art and then he had proimed himself as the Evil Cultivation God.

    The Great Demon God was left barely alive as the Evil Cultivation God needed to use his body to maintain the immortal profound array to prevent the Pangu Immortals from descending to help the celestials here.

    After patiently biding their time in the Celestial Realm for several thousands of years, the Great Demon God and the other two true gods are now more than a match for the Pangu Immortals.

    However, the Great Demon God had decided to y it safe by sealing off the way to the immortal realm and at the same time, he had also wanted to prevent the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth from returning to the Nine Heavens immortal realm.

    Right now, the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had disappeared in the Celestial Realm.

    The Great Demon God was confident that given enough time, he would be able to use his auguries to find the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and then he would be able to make it into his own profound treasure.

    The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a Beyond Divinity profound treasure and the main reason why the Great Demon God wanted to have it was to be a Beyond Divinity true god one day.

    His ambition was naturally not to attain as a true divinity and to stop there but to be a Beyond Divinity true god just like the Great Beyond Goddess.

    This n of his, was naturally not revealed to Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Rather, he had revealed to Ding Xiaoxiao that the Great Demon God that the Evil Cultivation God and Number 2 had defeated was actually his Avatar.

    With the power of his demonic third eye profound art, the Great Demon God was able to create a perfect Avatar that could take damage and also to disy the same profound strength as him.

    Naturally the Great Demon God did not disy his full power through his Avatar as he wanted to lure the Evil Cultivation God to show his trump cards.

    For that, the Great Demon God was willing to sacrifice all his Numbers and trusted aide including the Goddess Mel.

    When Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had finally returned from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, the Great Demon God had taken action immediately and he had killed all the evil cultivators that were loyal to the Evil Cultivation God.

    And he had also freed all the Numbers.

    As for the Goddess Mel, he had sacrificed her to regain the cultivation strength of his Numbers. And he had absorbed her cultivation core with his Ultimate Evil Veins.

    The reason why he had sacrificed the Goddess Mel was because she was a Deste Immortal of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm and was not truly from the Deste Immortal Realm as the Great Demon God.

    To the Great Demon God, she was but his pawn to be used against the Evil Cultivation God.

    In the end, the Goddess Mel did not even know why she had to die after enduring huge humiliations for the Great Demon God.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly when she had learnt of the fate of the Goddess Mel.

    She asked quietly, "Are you elevating the Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian just so that you can absorb his cultivation strength?"

    The Great Demon God smiled as he stroked his long white beard, "That''s right. And I have purposely leaked to him the Evil Veins Profound Art. All along he had thought that I am practicing the Evil Veins Profound Art but he did not know that I am actually practicing the Ultimate Evil Veins Profound Art. The Ultimate Evil Vein can naturally absorb the other Evil Veins seamlessly. I almost feel a little pitiful for Yin Xian now. In the end, he is nothing but my puppet."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded and she was sighing heavily again, "But in order for your n to work, there is still another important factor that must first taken ce or it won''t work."

    "Oh?" The Great Demon God smiled. "What is it?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said coolly, "Me!"

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially. "That''s right!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao said slowly, "You need to lure me away from the Great Deste Divine Pce first! Or else your n won''t work."

    The Great Demon Godughed, "Ding Xiaoxiao, Ding Xiaoxiao. Why are you so smart? You ought to be my consort instead. That''s right. I have to lure you away first. But before I can lure you away to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, you have already gone there. So, it saves me quite a bit of work to find an excuse to lure you away."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "I guess that your trick of luring me to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is the same reason why I had gone there in the first ce. You had nned to use Sword Saint Ji Yuan or the Death God Mingwang as a bait to lure me inside, am I right?"

    The Great Demon God smiled wryly, "I can''t deny this and I intend to exaggerate how good this Sword Saint Ji Yuan is. After all, he had killed a 8th rank metamorphosis monster before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and he also had a celestial-step divine sword. So his sword skills are undeniably strong."

    Then heughed jovially, "I''ve also purposely asked the Death God Mingwang to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to create another reason for you to pick a fight with him, just in case you aren''t convinced about the strength of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded.

    However she knows that the current Ji Yuan is already much stronger than before he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    She merely said, "Either way or for whatever reason, I am going to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Great Demon God asked her, "So, have you managed to find the Sword Saint Ji Yuan or the Death God Mingwang inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao shook her head, "Unfortunately, no."

 Chapter 1151 The Goddess Alyssa

    Chapter 1151 The Goddess Alyssa

    The Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The voice of the Immortal Aotian Heimu was heard in the throne of the Evil Cultivation God via themunication array of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    "Great Evil Cultivation God, the Great Deste Divine Pce is all cleared. I have secured the ce."

    The Goddess Alyssa turned to look at the Evil Cultivation God and there was an astonished look on her, "You have secured the Great Deste Divine Pce? There is no sight of Number 1 or the other Numbers?"

    Even the Evil Cultivation God was looking perplexed, "Did you find the Great Demon God as I''ve instructed you to find?"

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu said, "I have entered the inner sanctuary of the Great Deste Divine Pce ordingly to your instructions and was able to enter through the profound arrays that was ced there. Then I use the Origin Pearl that you''ve given me. Everything there is intact and there is no disturbances to the profound arrays. Also¡­"

    He paused to say, "Also, I''ve found the still living body of the Great Demon God at the underground epicenter of the inner sanctuary. Although he is alive but he is soulless and does not respond to my psychic scan."

    When the Evil Cultivation God had heard him, he looked quite relieved.

    The Immortal Aotian Heimu asked, "So, what should I do now?"

    The Evil Cultivation God said, "You have done good this time. I shall give you your rewardter. For now, wait for your instructions."

    Then he had ended the transmission.

    He was smiling as he looked at the Goddess Alyssa, "It seems that Number 1 merely got in the outer sanctuary of the Great Deste Divine Pce and had freed the other Numbers. It must be a Number that had managed to seize the teleporting array of the Great Deste Divine Pce while we are away and had conspired with Number 1 to take down our cultivators there. It seems that they did not dare to stay for too long lest they face our wrath."

    The Goddess Alyssa asked him, "Are you sure about this?"

    The Evil Cultivation Godughed coldly, "Immortal Aotian Heimu has already reported to me. So the report can''t be fake."

    Then he smirked, "We are going back to the Great Deste Divine Pce for the time being to refuel our profound ships and I have to make a trip to the Great Deste Divine Pce''s inner sanctuary to check on the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Goddess Alyssa said quietly, "ordingly to the Great Demon God, his immortal array not only can seal off the immortal gates to the Nine Heavens but he can also capture or at the very least pinpoint the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But¡­"

    She began to hesitate for a while before she said, "But what if this information is not true and is just a deception to lure you back to the Great Deste Divine Pce?"

    The Evil Cultivation God hummed coldly, "Rubbish! The Great Demon God can''t even anticipate his sorry state and you are telling that this is his deception. We have already seized back the Great Deste Divine Pce so what is there to fear? Unless¡­"

    All of a sudden, he was staring coldly at the Goddess Alyssa, "Unless you are envious of my sess?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said weakly, "You are doubting my loyalty? Haven''t I been through so many thousands of years with you and have served you with all my heart. I just have a bad feeling about all these and that''s why I am telling you."

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned coldly, "Woman, you are too timid."

    The Goddess Alyssa was startled as she said to herself: Woman? You used to call me Alyssa. Am I just a pawn in your eyes after you have attained to this lofty position?

    She said quietly, "There is no harm trying to take a little precaution first, right?"

    The Evil Cultivation God frowned, "What are you trying to say?"

    The Goddess Alyssa replied, "You still got a powerful 9th immortal Left Protector that is in charge of the eastern regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Worsee to worse, we can go there and Number 1 may not necessarily look for us there. There, you can wait for Number 2 to rebuild her body¡­"

    The Evil Cultivation God mmed his throne and said angrily, "What? You are already so sure that Number 1 is waiting for us there? Why are you being so pessimistic? How are you going to do great things with me together? You are asking me to retreat even before I have stepped into the Great Deste Divine Pce?"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled weakly, "You misunderstood me. What I am saying is that you can give me a wisp of your soul so that I can masquerade as you. If there are enemies that are hiding in the Great Deste Divine Pce then we can fool them. If anything is amiss then you can flee to the eastern region to join the High Immortal Rohan there."

    lights¦­¦Ïvel The Evil Cultivation God hummed coldly, "This isn''t your plot to masquerade as me and to take over my Evil Cultivation Pce instead, right?"

    The Goddess Alyssa: ¡­

    The Evil Cultivation God spread his hands as heughed coldly, "I have 30 000 cultivators and more than 100 profound ships. Do you really think that I will be afraid of a mere Number 1? Have you forgotten that she can only disy her cultivation strength to the 8th cultivation realm¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa interrupted him, "She can restore her cultivation to the 9th realm anytime. Have you forgotten about this?"

    The Evil Cultivation Godughed coldly, "Against over 20 immortals? She can''t win at all."

    "There may be other Numbers that are fighting alongside with her," The Goddess Alyssa pointed out.

    The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "Enough talk already. I will be going to the Great Deste Divine Pce. If you want to stay behind, fine. I will give you a profound ship and you shall stay behind. But if you do, I am not going to share the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you. This is my punishment for you for I am too disappointed with you."

    The Goddess Alyssa sighed heavily, "Yin Xian, I am just trying to warn you¡­"

    "You can leave now," The Evil Cultivation God interrupted her. "And in the future, don''t ever address my name directly."

    The Goddess Alyssa: ¡­

    "Fine!" She said coldly, "I shall wait for you then in my profound ship!"

    Then she had stormed off angrily.

    The Evil Cultivation God hummed coldly after her, "Woman, your foresight is too narrow to be a great conqueror like me."

 Chapter 1152 The Great Demon God Emerges

    Chapter 1152 The Great Demon God Emerges

    The Evil Cultivation God had ordered the Evil Cultivation Pce and the more than 100 profound ships to enter into the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea.

    The Abyssal Maelstrom Sea was so called because it was an ocean of deste mists that were continuous swirling furiously and this storm had been raging nonstop for tens of thousands of years.

    It was situated in the faraway Great Forsaken Basin where the mountain peaks were like small inds and were surrounded by endless oceans of deste mists. Above the heavens, powerful lightning storms surrounded the entire Great Forsaken Basin.

    The Forsaken Basin was a deste ce that even most celestial cultivators would avoid.

    Somewhere below the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea was the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The Evil Cultivation God knows this ce very well and directed the massive size of his Evil Cultivation Pce and his 100 plus profound ships into the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea.

    The formidable profound arrays of the Evil Cultivation Pce were activated to protect the weaker profound ships from the fierce lightning bolts that were generated by the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea while the more vulnerable profound ships remained docked in the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    A lone profound shipmanded by the Goddess Alyssa did not follow the Evil Cultivation Pce into the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea.

    Even though she was infuriated by the coldness of the Evil Cultivation God, she was also thinking about Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s next move.

    Somehow, she had a very bad feeling and this bad feeling did not go away.

    In the past, her intuition had saved her many times and she believed that this time was also not an exception.

    She wondered if she were Number 1, what then would be her next course of action after she had saved the Numbers?

    But if she was Number 1, she would not even try to save the Numbers even though this was the right thing to do to gather all the help to oppose the Evil Cultivation God.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao didn''t care for the Numbers; she would sooner abandon them to their fates than to muster them to fight with her under the same banner.

    Number 1 is a loner and not a leader.

    If she saved the Numbers then it would mean that someone was actually directing her to do it.

    And the rest of the Numbers won''t even try to ask Number 1 for help because Number 1 looked down on the rest of the Numbers.

    So it was unlikely for Number 1 to go to the Great Deste Divine Pce just because a Number had called her for help and had even secured the teleporting array for her return to the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Number 1 isn''t a docile person.

    This was too out of character for her.

    All of a sudden, the Goddess Alyssa had turned pale as she quickly directed her cultivators. "Set course for the eastern regions. I''m going to look for the High Immortal Rohan."

    She muttered to herself, "Let''s hope that I''m wrong¡­ if this is a trap, then it is a most terrifying trap and I have to escape first¡­"

    Many of the cultivators were startled as they did not have any foreknowledge that they would be going to the eastern regions.

    But because the Goddess Alyssa had spoken, they did not dare to ask.

    A 6th realm golden supremacy at the helm said, "Your goddess, we don''t have the spirit stones to reach the distant eastern regions¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa interrupted him coldly, "All the regions in the Deste Celestial Fraternity are ours now. Just stop halfway at some of the cultivation sects and demand that they give us their high grade spirit stones. Do I need to teach you what to do?"

    The 6th realm golden supremacy quickly said, "Yes, yes."

    -

    -

    -

    The Evil Cultivation God was smiling with great delight in his throne room when his Evil Cultivation Pce was approaching the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    It was because he would be the person that would soon obtain the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Even if he doesn''t, he could at least know its whereabouts.

    Over the years, he knows that the Great Demon God would not say anything useless and when he had said something, it would be the ultimate truth.

    lights¦­¦Ïvel However, he did not know that this was a deception by the Great Demon God and he had purposely said this to him.

    As he was looking at the visuals of the profound array in front of him as it showed the Great Deste Divine Pce, he had suddenly seen several shes of shadow in front of him and he was greatly startled.

    It was because it was the Great Demon God, Number 1, Number 3 and Number 5!

    And they had suddenly appeared in his throne room!

    The Evil Cultivation God stammered, "The Great Demon¡­ God¡­"

    The Great Demon God was smiling wryly as he stroked his long white beard, "s, Yin Xian. You are finally here. I''ve been waiting for you. You must be wondering how I got inside your Evil Cultivation Pce, am I right?"

    Before the Evil Cultivation God could answer him, the Evil Cultivation God had said. "I know that you have searched the Evil Cultivation Pce for any hidden profound arrays but this Evil Cultivation Pce is my gift for you and naturally I am the main designer as well. The hidden profound array is naturally hidden in the core and you can''t discover it unless it unless you wish to destroy this beautiful Evil Cultivation Pce."

    The Evil Cultivation God had turned ashen, "I have over 20 immortals with me. I am also a 9th realm immortal and your cultivation realm is also the 9th realm. I can easily summon for help. In fact, with a flicker of my fingers, they will be able toe to my aid in no time. Then you won''t be able to survive."

    The Great Demon God had suddenly released his oppressing half-step true divinity profound aura and with a profound punch, he had whacked the Evil Cultivation God off his feet.

    "Don''t you get it? Even you or the 20 immortals aren''t my match. Hahaha."

    The Evil Cultivation God was stunned by the profound might of the Great Demon God, "It is impossible! You are actually stronger than before your battle with the Saintess Fang Zhenfei¡­ how it is possible¡­ you have managed to regain your cultivation realm in the Celestial Realm?!"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "I have actually regained to my peak a century ago but I have chosen to mask it because it was not time for the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to descend yet. Very well then. Before I have made you into my living cauldron, I shall tell you everything then¡­"

 Chapter 1153 The Plan to comfort Ji Yuan (1)

    Chapter 1153 The n tofort Ji Yuan (1)

    The Pentecost Mountains, in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Ji Yuan''s victory over this region had caused many of the nearby rebel cultivators to gather at this ce.

    Hua Wuwu as the new sect leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect did not turn them down and epted all the cultivators that were willing to join them.

    Although there may be some spies that had cunning disguised themselves to join them but it was a risk that she had to take.

    And Ji Yuan agreed with her as well.

    He had said to her, "The spies are but a minority so don''t let this worry you. We just need to put our own people into their groups to prevent the spies from inciting the others. Have our own spies report on any suspicious activities so that we can take immediate action. As for those golden celestials that join us, we ought to be more careful. Nowadays, you can''t even trust a golden celestial that is from the orthodox cultivation sect."

    For the next few days, Ji Yuan simply waited for the Evil Cultivation Pce toe.

    And he wondered why they had gone to the Great Forsaken Basin instead.

    Also, he also wondered if he could see Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao again.

    He was eager to see her again but at the same time, he was also anxious about seeing her; it was because the next time that he would see her, they may well be enemies.

    "Must we fight?"

    This was a question that Ji Yuan had asked himself.

    When Ji Yuan had banged Ding Xiaoxiao, he was startled that she was actually a chaste maiden and he was her first man.

    Ji Yuan became even more unhappy that he had to fight Ding Xiaoxiao especially when he had treated her as his maiden.

    But after he had banged her, she just disappeared and not even saying a parting word to him.

    His ego was bruised because of this.

    "Xiaoxiao, do you think that you are done with me after having your fun of ying with me?"

    He certainly is not going to let her off just like this or his name is not Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was naturally sad to learn of Jiajia''s death.

    For a full day after he had taken over the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, he had holed himself inside a cultivation chamber and refusing to leave the ce.

    He was not doing any cultivations or meditations but he was nking thinking about his Jiajia and all the things that they had experienced together.

    "Jiajia, you say that if I see Xu Yifei in the Celestial Realm then we will surely see one another again and what you had told me isn''t a dream. Right? Don''t lie to me, Jiajia¡­"

    He kept repeating this to himself.

    All the maidens tried to persuade Ji Yuan to cheer up but to no avail.

    Even when they put on their best enticing robes with really short skirts, they could not arouse Ji Yuan''s interest.

    His maidens were getting a little anxious for Ji Yuan now.

    Ling Feiyue said to Shui Xisi, "Ji Yuan has been suppressing his emotions since Jiajia''s death and now he has sunk into depression when there are no enemies to be seen in sight. Only you can bring Ji Yuan out of his depression."

    Shui Xisi asked curiously, "I can? He ignored me just like the rest of you and he says that he needs to be alone for a while."

    Ling Feiyue said to her, "Yes, you can. Because you are the Jiajia''s sister and you have some resembles to her as well. Didn''t you notice that Ji Yuan is more patience toward you than with us?"

    Shui Xisi protested weakly, "That is because he is a lusty toad that is lecherously looking at my beautiful body. He is nothing but a lecherous cultivator. I don''t want to talk to him for a minute longer!"

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    All the other maidens that had been with Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    It was not a secret to some of these maidens that Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan had a secret affair with each other.

    But the two of them just refused to admit it.

    Ling Feiyue weakly said to Shui Xisi, "Maybe you can go andfort Ji Yuan again."

    Shui Xisi sighed, "I can talk to him again but I can''t promise that I will be able tofort him. I am also quite upset with my sister''s death but he is even sadder than I am. This is a little too ridiculous."

    As she said that, her golden eyes burnt with anger against the evil cultivators and the Great Demon God as she muttered, "Feifei, I''ll surely avenge your death."

    To the cultivators, especially the high level ones, they are actually quite muted to the deaths of the other cultivators in their long life as they have witnessed too many deaths whether it is in the trials or through duels.

    So she had thought that Ji Yuan would be able to get over it quickly and focused his energies on avenging her sister instead.

    But Ji Yuan was hit harder than they had thought.

    Ling Feiyue had even secretly summoned Xiang Li to ask her for help when she was alone with her.

    "Xiang Li, just between you and me, how do know why Ji Yuan is so depressed? Is there anything that you can help?"

    Xiang Li replied to her, "Big Brother is still sad with Maiden Jiajia''s death. Big Brother''s big dreams with Jiajia are all shattered now."

    Ling Feiyue had sighed, "I know. He wants to take Jiajia as his consort for the longest time. He told me while we are inside the Warrior Labyrinth Empyrean."

    Xiang Li said with a sheepish look, "This isn''t exactly true."

    Ling Feiyue: ???

    "Huh? What do you mean?"

    Xiang Li exined awkwardly, "He had dreamt of banging Maiden Jiajia every day and night but it is noting true anymore."

    Ling Feiyue: ¡­

    Back to the present, Shangguan Yan had suddenly spoken up, "Matriarch Shui, may I say something to you?"

    Shui Xisi smiled and asked, "It is Maiden Shangguan Yan. I have heard that you and your prot¨¦g¨¦ sister Fairy Ye Chengxi are both my sister''s core disciples now. In the future, I am also half your cultivation mistress. What is it that you want to say to me?"

    Shangguan Yan said quietly, "I do have a n for you tofort my lord, Ji Yuan. Do you want to hear?"

    Shui Xisi asked curiously, "What is it?"

    All the other maidens were all also curiously looking at Shangguan Yan.

    Right now, they needed a n to incite Ji Yuan''s fighting spirit again.

 Chapter 1154 The Plan to comfort Ji Yuan (2)

    Chapter 1154 The n tofort Ji Yuan (2)

    An extremely beautiful maiden had suddenly entered into Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber and she saw that Ji Yuan was holding his broken emperor-step divine sword dearly in his hands.

    Dressed in her white straps of robe the revealed her neck and bosoms, she walked inside and her white slender leg could be seen as only a white thong barely covered her middle.

    As soon as she walked in, she had aroused Ji Yuan''s interest immediately.

    "Sisi?" Ji Yuan was startled when he had suddenly recognized that it was Shui Xisi.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Of course it is me. Who else are you expecting?"

    Then she asked him, "When are you going to get out of this cultivation chamber? I know that you are still sad over my Sister Feifei''s death, which is your Jiajia but you got to pull yourself first. A big fight with the Evil Cultivation God may happen anytime."

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "Don''t worry about me. I''ll be alright in a few days."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "In a few days'' time? You will onlye out when there is a fight? And then you will be in the cultivation chamber again, am I right? Ji Yuan, you really disappoint me and my Sister Feifei!"

    Ji Yuan did not rebuke her and instead he was holding the broken emperor-step divine sword with trembling fingers, "This divine sword started off as an earth-step divine sword and now it is an emperor-step divine sword. This divine sword is from Jiajia to me and over the years, I''ve been carrying it and with it, I have ovee many of my opponents. This is Jiajia''s betrothal gift to me¡­"

    When Shui Xisi had heard Ji Yuan, her golden eyes had suddenly be bleary; she actually did not know about this and Ji Yuan had never told her.

    Ji Yuan murmured, "Jiajia is no longer with me. My Qianfeng is also not around¡­"

    Shui Xisi pulled him to her and toward her bosoms, "Silly Ji Yuan. You still got me and so many other maidens. Why are you like that?"

    Ji Yuan trembled as he stared nkly at the broken emperor-step divine sword, "In my heart, Jiajia weighed the heaviest because she had also helped me to cure my heart demon. Without her, I will not have taken an interest in all of you. She asked me to be a romantic cultivator but she can never see me turning into a romantic cultivator anymore."

    Shui Xisi asked quietly, "Don''t tell me that you want to be a romantic cultivator all because of a promise to my sister?"

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "Of course it is."

    "Ji Yuan, I''ve something to tell you." Shui Xisi slowly said. "But you must not be angry with me, alright?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "How should I be angry with you?"

    Shui Xisi inhaled deeply before she said, "My sister is actually not dead¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had excitingly grabbed her shoulders and he was shouting excitingly, "Sisi, what did you just say?!"

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "Don''t be so excited, alright? Or else I won''t tell you."

    Ji Yuan quickly nodded and said, "Please go on."

    Shui Xisi said weakly, "A wisp of my sister''s soul is captured by a life-saving profound treasure and she has since returned to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. So, she will need some time to reconstruct her physical body again."

    Ji Yuan said with disbelief, "You are not lying to me, right? I have never heard of anyone resurrecting before. And now, you are telling me that it is possible?"

    Shui Xisi gently knocked Ji Yuan''s on his forehead and said, "Others maybe can''t but for my sister, it is possible."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do you say so?"

    Shui Xisi asked him, "Do you know who my father is?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "How the heck do I know who your father is? He is an immortal for sure but I do not know him. But I do know your mother consort now and she is the Great Goddess Celestial Alice. Hahaha¡­"

    Bai Qianfeng had told him about her rivalry with the Great Goddess Alice and Shui Xisi''s background just before she had left.

    Shui Xisi leaned to his ears and whispered, "My sister and I actually didn''t want to reveal to you who our mother consort is but since you have known now, well¡­ that''s alright. As for my abba father, he is the Great God Pangu, the creator of the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan nearly stumbled backward, "What the heck, Sisi?! You and Jiajia are both the daughters of the Great God Pangu?! Isn''t the Great God Pangu a true divinity immortal god?!"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "That''s right. And he is a 10th realm true divinity. Also, you''ve banged his daughter."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Are you trying to settle this score with me?"

    Shui Xisi ignored his remarks and continued, "My father will naturally be able to revive my sister."

    Shangguan Yan had asked Shui Xisi to tell a lie to Ji Yuan and this was the lie. As to what lie it was, Shangguan Yan actually had no suggestion to offer.

    So, this was actually made up by Shui Xisi herself.

    Ji Yuan pped his hands with great excitement, "That''s right. A true divinity god will surely be able to revive my Jiajia and moreover Jiajia is his daughter!"

    He began to rub his beardless chins to ponder, "You know, Sisi. There is something that I''ve always wanted to ask. Howe the two of you are separated and not in the same cultivation sect?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "The immortal realm is ill-suitable for the celestial cultivation as the spiritual energies are 100 times denser than in the celestial realm so we are sent to the Celestial Realm to cultivate into a saintess first¡­"

    "Isn''t it good?" Ji Yuan asked curiously, "I mean isn''t the dense spirit energies good for cultivation?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "You need an immortal body to cultivate the dense spiritual energies first. Also, there is no divine cmity in the Nine Heavens for below the 8th realm cultivators to be an immortal. That is why we are sent at birth to the Celestial Realm¡­"

    She quietly looked at Ji Yuan, "I wasn''t joking with you when I told you that I am a born Xuantian and be a golden celestial at 18."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Yeah, you have told me. Your cultivation speed is too fast."

    Shui Xisi smiled, "My Sister Feifei is even better than me in cultivation. Each of us heads a different cultivation sect and because we are the daughters of the Great Goddess Alice and the Great God Pangu, we are ced in this part of the Celestial Realm on purpose to help get rid of the Evil Cultivation Pce. But the Evil Cultivation Pce did not have any permanent base so it is an endless battle against them."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Especially when the Evil Cultivation Pce is a flying citadel too that can quickly change its location too."

    Shui Xisi sighed, "Actually it is my first time ever that I am seeing the Evil Cultivation Pce. I didn''t even know that it is a huge floating citadel."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "The evil cultivators have hidden themselves quite well until recently."

    Shui Xisi hung her head in shame, "Actually it is mostly my Sister Feifei that is battling the evil cultivators while I was fooling around."

    She was suddenly weeping as she covered her face, "I was too yful and I was always trying to get my sister''s attention¡­"

    Ji Yuan pulled her to him as heforted her. "It is alright¡­"

    Then Ji Yuan''s golden eyes were beaming as he thought: Jiajia didn''t lie to me. It is really her that day. She is still alive! One day, we will meet again¡­

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?" Shui Xisi had suddenly caught hold of his hands that were on her bosoms.

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "It is my Natural Instinct profound art. I didn''t know what has happened either. Please believe me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was soon kissing Shui Xisi passionately despites protesting that he was unwittingly touching her.

    And soon, they were naked as they hastily removed all their clothing after burying their passions for a long time.

    Both of them were like hungry wolves as they embraced each other passionately.

    Ji Yuan really liked Shui Xisi, especially when she was willing to let him bang hard and rough into her.

    In fact, she was moaning lewdly as she protested weakly to Ji Yuan, "Are you sure that you are a 9th realm cultivator now? Can''t you bang me harder and quicker? Is this the best that you can do?"

    Ji Yuan opened Shui Xisi''s legs wider and wrapped it around his waist, "Sisi, you are asking for this. Let me show you what is an alpha of all the alphas!"

    "You mean, the beast of a man?" Shui Xisi teased him.

    But she was soon moaning wildly as Ji Yuan began to bang her hard as he raised her buttocks and Shui Xisi''s raised bosoms spoke of her happiness and delight.

    Their passionate love making sessionsted for several hours until they were both hugging each other and looking quite spent.

    Shui Xisi smiled yfully to Ji Yuan, "Regarding my background and my sister''s resurrection, please do not tell your maidens or any others. This is a personal secret between the two of us."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course, of course. I will be looking forward to Jiajia''s descend soon. After all, she won''t abandon her sister, right?"

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "Of course not. She loves me more than she loves you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This isn''t true at all but I am not arguing with you."

    Shui Xisi asked coyly, "Ji Yuan, how long since thest time that we have made love?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It is such a long time ago that I can''t remember¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had pulled Ji Yuan to her and they were rolling on the bed again.

    Ji Yuan was soon banging her again as he could not get enough of her.

    "Sisi, am I really banging the daughter of the Great God Pangu now?"

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "You''ve better believe it¡­"

    "I can''t believe that the daughter of the Great God Pangu is such a slut, you know." Ji Yuanughed softly as he interrupted her.

    "What did you just say? Are you courting your own death?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I am stronger than you now, Sisi. Face it. Haha¡­"

    Shui Sisiughed cheekily as her killing intents began to sh in her golden eyes, "Ji Yuan, I will crush your balls¡­"

    Ji Yuan had caught hold of her bouncing balls, "Sisi, your balls are bigger than mine. Hahaha¡­"

    All of a sudden, he yelled aloud, "What the heck?! Sisi, you are serious¡­"

    Shui Sisi smiled, "This will teach you not to think with your lower body but more on your head. Hehe."

    -

    -

    -

    Many hourster when Shui Xisi had walked out of Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber.

    She was looking coquettishly as she faced the maidens that had been waiting for her result.

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue both asked at the same time, "How? You have been in there for such a long time. Did you seed in making him feel better?"

    Shui Xisi winked at them, "Of course. This saintess here is a capable saintess. Hehe. You can all go in and see for yourself now."

    Shui Qingqing asked curiously, "Matriarch, what did you say tofort Ji Yuan?"

    Shui Xisiughed softly as she flushed, "Nothing really. I merely spent some time to talk to Ji Yuan and to help him to regain his fighting spirits."

    Some of the maidens like Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were not convinced as the two of them had been with Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. And from Shui Xisi''s rosy looks, they were betting that Shui Xisi were making love with Ji Yuan for sure.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess quickly said, "Let me go and check on Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Nono, it is best that we check alone first." Both Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had both said at the same time.

    Then they quickly made a quick rock, paper and scissor with their hands.

    And a delightful Little Princess smiled, "I''ve won so I am going to check on Ji Yuan first."

    With that, she had walked to visit Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber alone.

    When she had exited a few hourster, she was looking quite rosy and she was smiling enchantingly. "He does look a little alright now. Who wants to visit him next?"

    Ling Feiyue quickly said with soft delights, "Let me go and check on Ji Yuan!"

    When Ling Feiyue had returned a few hourster, she too was looking quite rosy and flustered; even her tight bosoms were heaving up and down.

    By now, many of the maidens had already guessed what had happened.

    One by one, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Xue Qianxue, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo had also gone in to check on Ji Yuan.

    Even Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er had also visited Ji Yuan.

    Everyone hade out with a rosy look.

    Some of these maidens would innocently say to the other maidens.

    "It isn''t what you all think it is¡­"

    "We are only chatting¡­"

    "Ji Yuan still looks a little depress so I use my own methods tofort him¡­"

    "I am only there to cheer him up¡­"

    Only those maidens that were ahead of them to see Ji Yuan know that this was not true for Ji Yuan had already regained his old self now.

    Only Xu Yifei, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Shui Qingqing were looking awkward; they could guess what that these maidens were doing in Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber alone.

    Xu Yifei was quite startled when she saw Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er entering Ji Yuan''s chamber alone and she thought: My Sister Tang Manni, don''t tell me that she had already lost her chastity to Ji Yuan?

    Shui Qingqing was left to wonder if her matriarch had an affair with Ji Yuan or not.

    She did not dare to tell her matriarch that she liked Ji Yuan too¡­

    The Lovely Empress was not smiling lovingly at all and she was cursing Ji Yuan each time a maiden had exited his cultivation chamber, "He is nothing but a male harlot. I hope that he would get kidney failure¡­"

    Chapter 1156 Ji Yuan is Cured (2)

    For the next several days, Ji Yuan was in a jovial mood.

    In fact, he was now back to normal again.

    Primarily it was because he was able to be with most of his maidens and that he had private time with them.

    Ji Yuan tried to spend more time with Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Saintess Jian Yuluo and Ling Tianshui as they had been separated for 6 months.

    In reality due to the time differences inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, Ji Yuan was away for more than 2 years.

    Ling Feiyue and Little Princess received slightly less attention than the rest of the maidens but they did not mind at all.

    But somehow, Shui Xisi seemed to have received plenty of attention from Ji Yuan than the other maidens.

    But she would always emphasize that they were only tonic friends and she was not interested in a stupid Ji Yuan like the rest of the maidens.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress would roll their eyes whenever she had said that.

    lights¦­¦Ïvel There were 3 unhappy maidens and they were the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Shui Qingqing and Xu Yifei.

    It was because they had felt left out.

    Even when they had visited Ji Yuan to check him out, he was extremely well behaved and did not touch them.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei could not resist the temptation to ask Tang Manni, "Sister, are you in a rtionship with Ji Yuan?"

    Tang Manni shyly nodded with deep flushes on her beautiful countenances.

    Xu Yifei was astonished, "When did this happen?"

    Tang Manni shyly said, "While Little Jie''Er and I are inside the skull ring that are given by the Great Oracle Destiny to us."

    Xu Yifei gasped again, "Little Jie''Er as well¡­"

    She felt like crying as she was already seen naked by Ji Yuan twice over and Ji Yuan did not eveny a hand on her. Moreover, she had also kissed Ji Yuan, not once but twice.

    Xu Yifei is a sentimental maiden and that is why she is willing to follow Ji Yuan to this ce.

    In her heart, she has already seen herself as Ji Yuan''s consort but Ji Yuan did not seem to be making any move on her.

    She sighed heavily at the sight of the many beautiful maidens that were Ji Yuan''s consorts.

    Xu Yifei was also an extremely beautiful maiden but she did not have anypetitive edge against the other maidens as they were all extremely beautiful maidens in their own ways.

    Actually, Ji Yuan was well aware of Xu Yifei, the Lovely Empress and Shui Qingqing feelings for him but at this moment, he could not reciprocate to them; it was because he did not want them to be widows as he is nning for his life and death battle with the Evil Cultivation God and Number 1.

    At the same time, he was hard pressed by the other maidens and he was feeling weak in his waist due to much banging and he was always trying to save a little more of his yang essence for his other maidens.

    Every day, he had to entertain 10 different maidens, not once and sometimes multiple times a day.

    He began toment, "I must be the most ill-fated man in the entire Celestial Realm now."

    If the male cultivators in the Celestial Realm were to hear Ji Yuan, they would not hesitate to kick him or to punch him in the face.

    Xiang Li and Anyang on the other hand were full of great delights for many days.

    Anyang pretended to caution Ji Yuan, "If you stop your rough banging with Maiden Shui Xisi, you may have a better endurance."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "And then she will think that I am an impotent man? Never!"

    He began to ask Aura, "Can you make a masculine profound pill?"

    Aura: ???

    It was five days since Ji Yuan had taken over the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and yet, there was no sight of the Evil Cultivation Pce or any of her allies in sight.

    Instead, the number of cultivators that hade to join the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect had swelled to over 5000 in a matter of days.

    Xue Qianxue had told Ji Yuan, "The Deste Celestial Fraternity is a vast realm and even at the fastest speed, it may require the Evil Cultivation Pce 5 days to reach the Great Forsaken Basin. The Evil Cultivation Pce is a gigantic floating citadel and it can''t really move too fast."

    But on the 5th day, there were 4 maidens that had suddenly arrived that delighted Ji Yuan to no ends.

    It was because they were Yun Chi, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, Zhi Jiugong and Feng Minyue!

    Xiang Li and Anyang were the most delighted because they could see these 4 maidens in action with Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan secretly rebuked Xiang Li and Anyang for their lecherous ways, "Are the two of you here with me just to watch me with my maidens or are the two of you with me to fight against the Evil Cultivation God?"

    Xiang Li and Anyang Li protested immediately, "We are melding our divine swords as soon as possible to help us. But you are making a free show for us and we have no choice but to watch it."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I did ask the two of you to seal off your divine senses. Howe the two of you can still watch what happen outside? Aren''t spirit fairies supposed to be obey their master to the strictest letter?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "But Big Brother, you did say that you are not my master when I join you. Also, I am useless to do anything for you, right?"

    Anyang was also giggling, "I am here because of Xiang Li and not because of you. So you are not my master. Hehe¡­"

    Ji Yuan did not spend his time to argue with the two of them in his soul sea and instead he was greeting the four newly arrival maidens warmly.

    He was already drooling at Yun Chi''s busts and peerless statuesque face and also at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.

    "Yun Chi, Senior Sister Lixue, Maiden Jiugong and Maiden Feng Minyue, you are all here now. Hahaha. Come, let me introduce you to the rest of my maidens."

    Xue Qianxue was astonished to see 4 such beautiful maidens and they had all imed to know Ji Yuan. Moreover, all of them were all at the peaked great saintess level too.

    And so Ji Yuan introduced them to one another.

    With Yun Chi and Shui Xisi around, Ji Yuan felt confidence of killing the Evil Cultivation God now.

    "This is my Senior Sister Chu Lixue," he introduced her to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan. "I have forgotten to mention that I''ve found my old master inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. That is, your grand prot¨¦g¨¦ master."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were astonished, "Our grand prot¨¦g¨¦ master? He is still alive?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right. He is actually the White Sword Monarch and also the founder of the White Sword Celestial Sect in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. Hahaha¡­"

    "Senior Sister Lixue, they are my erm¡­ disciples and also consorts."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden stared at Ji Yuan as she ceased her divine smiles, "You took your disciples as your consorts? Did my father hand to you an unorthodox cultivation sect?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "This is a long story. Hahaha¡­. Shall we talk about itter?"

    The Lovely Empress were warmly embracing the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong.

    Zhi Jiugong smiled to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, "My good sister, you are in this ce. We are so worried about you."

    The Lovely Empress murmured with great sourness, "I am here to watch someone breaks his waist."

    Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden: ???

    All the other maidens: ???

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly before he quickly said, "I am so d that all my friends are in this same ce as me now¡­"

    "My lord, you have forgotten about Elder Li Ye. He had gone to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you." Fairy Ye Chengxi reminded him.

    Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes.

    How could he admitted that he had asked Li Ye to jump into the deste mists while he looked for his maidens that day?

    So heughed awkwardly, "Li Ye is a good fighter. He is probably back in the Emperor Hall Sect where he is safe with my son Ji Hao. Hahaha¡­"

    Chapter 1157 I am the True Devil God (1)

    Ji Yuan was delighted to see Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden again.

    After he had introduced them to the maidens, he began to chat with the 4 of them privately.

    The only maiden that had joined them was the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and she did not look happy at her.

    Zhi Jiugong could not resistmenting, "Third sister, what has happened to your usual lovely demeanor? You don''t look happy. Did Ji Yuan bully you?"

    Yun Chi, the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Feng Minyue were also looking at her curiously.

    Ji Yuan himself was frowning, "I don''t remember bullying her at all."

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly and she wished that Ji Yuan had bullied her instead.

    But she disyed a forceful smile and said, "I am still worried for Ji Yuan. He doesn''t look alright to me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am alright¡­"

    Yun Chi interrupted him as she said to him, "Ji Yuan, show me your wrist. I am also anxious about your condition. You seem to have gone beyond your cultivation realm limit with that powerful ck light on the Evil Cultivation God¡­"

    "That is my Dividing One Sword," Ji Yuanughed aloud as he interrupted her while showing her his wrist.

    Yun Chi examined his wrist with her divine sense; as a great god, there is no need for her to enter Ji Yuan''s soul sea in order to know his condition.

    Her beautiful countenance was suddenly gasping with shock as she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Your inner spiritual sea is so robust? It is exactly just like a 9th realm immortal cultivator. If you are not a half-immortal cultivator, your inner spiritual sea can still further expand to a stronger spiritual boundary."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Is that so? Then I wonder if my spiritual boundaries are stronger or yours are stronger? Yun Chi, you don''t mind allowing me to enter your inner spiritual sea to have a look?"

    Yun Chi hummed softly, "No. I don''t want to let a naked man to enter my inner spiritual sea and to impure my spiritual sea."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Yun Chi smiled wryly before she turned to the other maidens to say, "Mm, other than a little problem, Ji Yuan seems to be perfectly alright."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What problem?"

    Yun Chi casually said as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Your masculine energies seem to be quite weak."

    Ji Yuan began toughed weakly; for the past 5 days, he had been banging his maidens so many times that he had actually lost count.

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "I know it. He must have twisted his waist."

    When Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden saw the Lovely Empress'' expressions, they immediately know why she had been so upset.

    They just smiled weakly while not exposing the thin veil that they had guessed that were causing the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu to be upset with Ji Yuan.

    The 4 of them were all Ji Yuan''s official maidens because they had all lost their chastity to Ji Yuan.

    They guessed that the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had not lost her chastity to Ji Yuan yet and that she was hopping mad.

    Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden actually knows the Lovely Empress best as they have been with her for the past several thousand years and they know that she was upset.

    Her quick temper was also the reason how they got to get to know Ji Yuan in the first ce.

    Nowadays, the only thing that could get her this upset was Ji Yuan especially when she was bottoming it up and not telling anyone about it.

    Given her temper, she would have revealed all her unhappiness to her two sisters.

    Therefore, it had to be Ji Yuan that was causing her to look so unhappy.

    Ji Yuan was not so dense as not to know why the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was looking so unhappily. In fact, he had noticed how revealing her dressing had been when she was visiting him in his cultivation chamber.

    However, he had yed dumbed and quicklye out with an excuse in his mind: I am not going to pay you 50 million high grade spirit stones to bang you. Maybe if it is free of charge, I''ll consider it.

    Actually, the main reason why he did not want to reciprocate her feelings was because he did not want to hurt her if he died in battle.

    A secondary reason was that Jiajia had just died and he has no mood to pursuit another maiden, no matter how beautiful she is.

    The loveliness of the Lovely Empress is too stunning and Ji Yuan has to admit that her allure is too tempting for him to resist. But as long as he did not look at her, he would be able to resist the urge to bang her.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly said to Yun Chi, "Yun Chi and everyone. Actually, there is something that I want to reveal to all of you."

    Then he had taken out his ck true divinity sword, "This is a true divinity sword that I had found inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Hahaha¡­ that is why I am able to use that Dividing One Sword."

    Yun Chi was astonished as she examined the true divinity sword with her divine sword, "You have really found a true divinity sword? This is impossible. And why is this ck sword looking so familiar?"

    The Lovely Empress was also saying, "Yeah. It looks familiar to me as well."

    Ji Yuan was immediately frowning to Yun Chi, "Why do you say that this is impossible for me to obtain? Seeing is believing. Yun Chi, you must be envious of my true divinity sword. Haha¡­"

    Yun Chi immediately smiled coldly at him, "A true divinity sword can''t be obtainable by any normal means. Your cultivation knowledge truly sucks. Do you know how difficulty it is to obtain a true divinity sword even if it is in front of you? Given your poor cultivation strength, it would probably fly away from you."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I am a 9th realm cultivator now. Hahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi kicked Ji Yuan gently, "You must be hiding something from us. But then you can''t tell us much since you have obtained it inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as it is forbidden to reveal details of your trial to anyone¡­"

    "Wait a minute. This ck sword¡­ I have seen it before¡­"

    The Lovely Empress was nodding too, "We have seen it inside the Goddess Star Pce. It looks exactly the same as¡­"

    She had wanted to mention the profound imageries but the restrictivews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth had prevented her from saying it.

    Whether directly or indirectly, the divinews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would prevent any cultivator from revealing information about their trials inside.

    Because the cultivators had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they were already subjected to its divinews in their soul sea when they had entered it.

    If any cultivators tried to indirectly reveal their trials inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, they would immediately receive a bacsh that would kill them instead.

    The divinews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth are absolute.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially before he said mysteriously to Yun Chi and the Lovely Empress, "That is because I am the True Devil God."

    When Yun Chi and the Lovely Empress had heard him, they were falling backward andughing jovially at his promation.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am not joking, you know.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden who was with Ji Yuan in the Spirit Divine Realm knows that the True Devil God was worshipped by the cults there was alsoughing jovially. "Ji Yuan, you are too funny¡­"

    Chapter 1158 I am the True Devil God (2)

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is not funny."

    Yun Chi looked at him intently, "You are really the True Devil God?"

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "Mistress, don''t believe in his lies. If he is the True Devil God then I shall strip myself naked and danced in front of him."

    Ji Yuan was delighted as he looked lecherously at the Lovely Empress, "You will surely lose this bet for sure!"

    Yun Chi said slowly, "I can''t exin how Ji Yuan got to the 9th realm cultivation in such a short time. His spiritual sea is as robust as mine now and¡­"

    She started to look intently at Ji Yuan, "And, he seems to have gained the Golden Invincible Body that only a true divinity is able to have."

    This startled the Lovely Empress, Feng Minyue, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong as they asked together. "The Golden Invincible Body? What is the Golden Invincible Body?"

    Yun Chi said nonchntly, "The first condition to learn the Golden Invincible Body is for his inner spiritual sea to be enveloped with golden spiritual energies instead of the blue spirit energies. How did that ur?"

    Ji Yuan answered with a chuckle, "If you remember that I got the Golden Natal Divine Pearl in the Goddess Star Pce. Well, I have assimted it into my soul sea now. Hahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi was startled, "That is a true divinity immortal profound treasure. You have actually absorbed it? I find it hard to believe¡­"

    "That is because I am a genius," Ji Yuan grinned with great awesomeness.

    The Lovely Empress muttered helplessly, "He is definitely pasting gold on his face. 100%."

    Ji Yuan ignored the Lovely Empress as he exined further, "I haveprehended a new sword dao when I was fighting the Immortal Teng Haijian and I call it the Sword Dao of Mncholy. When I use it, my Golden Natal Divine Pearl had suddenly assimted into my spiritual sea, turning it into a golden ocean¡­"

    Under Yun Chi''s gaze, Ji Yuan did not dare to beat around the bushes and quickly mentioned the main points.

    He continued, "I had heard the Immortal Teng Haijian mentioning about the Golden Invincible Body as well but I don''t know what the hell is that. All I know is that when I had used my Sword Dao of Mncholy with my Dividing One Sword, my profound aura and even the profound energies of my sword art had all turned golden in color. Also, I could feel an insane amount of profound power in my profound attack, far stronger than the ck light that you saw when I used it on the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Yun Chi slowly nodded before she asked, "Ji Yuan, can you disy it for me to have a look? I am really interested to see this Sword Dao of Mncholy that you haveprehended."

    All the other maidens were all nodding as well.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm Yun Chi, I have not fully regained the use of my Sword Dao of Mncholy yet. Also, I can''t muster the sword intentions to show it to you. Because this Sword Dao of Mncholy can only be used to protect my love ones. This is the restriction of this sword dao."

    Yun Chi nodded, "I see. I guess that I can only see it the next time then¡­"

    Then she hesitated for a while before she asked Ji Yuan intently, "Are you really the True Devil God?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "Well, I guess so. That''s what the True Devil God''s Avatar had told me as well¡­"

    He raised his true divinity sword, "That''s what my true divinity had told me as well and she has even acknowledged me as her master."

    Yun Chi inhaled deeply, "If you are really the reincarnation of the True Devil God then indeed you can obtain his true divinity sword without any problem. And if you are really the True Devil God then your cultivation potential may even be higher than me."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Is that so? Haha¡­"

    The Lovely Empress said unhappily, "How is possible for his cultivation to exceed mine in such a short time. He must have taken some forbidden profound pills. Maybe he will explode soon enough."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Didn''t Sisi tell you that I am in no danger of dying soon?"

    Then he turned to look at Yun Chi and asked her, "What do you think of the Evil Cultivation God? Yun Chi, what are you nning to do now?"

    Yun Chi inhaled deeply, "Now that the Great Demon God is dead, I ought to take over his n of dominating over the Celestial Realm or to join the Evil Cultivation God. But I am unwilling to join the Evil Cultivation God as he is just a lowly immortal in my eyes."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Below a true god, the rest are all vermin."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly at him, "Who taught you this?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "The Immortal Teng Haijian."

    The Lovely Empress immediately said to Yun Chi with a mischievous smile, "Mistress, he is calling us vermin."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm, I didn''t mean this. Hahaha¡­"

    He turned to frown at the Lovely Empress, "Howe I got a feeling that you are against me today?"

    The Lovely Empress looked up andughed coldly, "Did I? Am I? Hmph!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you believe that I will strip you in front of the others and bang you too?

    But he quickly turned to Yun Chi to ask, "Surely, you are not thinking of conquering the entire Celestial Realm together with Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao?"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Actually I have no wish to cooperate with Number 1. She is too dangerous and unpredictable. Moreover¡­"

    She had lowered her head with a coyly look, "Moreover, I am pregnant with your child now and is not in my peak condition anymore. Fighting against Number 1 may even get me killed by her. She is really strong¡­"

    Then she said quietly, "I''ve actually met her while you are all inside the trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were all startled, "And?"

    Even Ji Yuan was startled.

    Yun Chi smiled, "Nothing had happened. She isn''t interested to fight a pregnant me but she knows that I am the Death God Mingwang now."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "She knows that you are the Death God Mingwang? How?"

    Yun Chi sighed, "Her instinct is extremely sharp. I would say that she has the potential to be a half-step true divinity in the future and she won''t be a weak one. Probably, she is going to be at the upper tier of the half-step true divinity."

    Then she turned to smile at Ji Yuan, "That is why I have told you not to provoke Number 1. That is why I had sent the others to warn you to stay away from her. But you had actually fought a duel with her and survived. I find it hard to believe."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, she had lowered her cultivation realm for our duel, that''s why."

    The Lovely Empress gleefully pointed out, "Do you all remember that Ji Yuan had imed that he had banged Number 1? What a liar. He''s just dreaming of banging all the beautiful maidens that he had seen."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I had really banged her and we copted for a long time¡­

    Yun Chi smiled wryly before she winked at Ji Yuan, "Anyway I''ll lie low for a while and to help you to fight the Evil Cultivation God. As for Number 1, let''s see her agenda first¡­"

    All of a sudden there was an oppressive aura that had suddenly appeared above the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and all the heavens had turned gloomy dark!

    This startled Yun Chi, Ji Yuan and everyone else!

    Yun Chi was the most startled, "This profound aura is from¡­ the Great Demon God!"

 Chapter 1159 Profound Manifestation of the Great Demon God

    Chapter 1159 Profound Manifestation of the Great Demon God

    The oppressing aura that had suddenly appeared in the dark heavens above had startled all the cultivators and they were all rushing outside to have a look.

    This included Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden and Feng Minyue.

    Also joining them were Ji Yuan''s other maidens as well.

    Some of the weaker cultivators were even trembling and many were muttering, "Is the Evil Cultivation Pceing to attack us?"

    Many of the cultivators were even in arms.

    Yun Chi however said to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry. The Great Demon God isn''t here. This is just his profound manifestation."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Weird. Isn''t the Great Demon God dead or subdued by the Evil Cultivation God already?"

    Yun Chi was equally perplexed and from the strength of this profound manifestation, it seemed that the Great Demon God was even stronger than before.

    A gigantic profound manifestation of a long white bearded old man with pointed ears began to appear in the dark heavens above and he was stroking his long beard.

    This profound manifestation was so massive gigantic that it covered half of the visible dark heaven and everyone could even see his winkles quite clearly.

    Then he started to say slow but in his powerful voice, "Some of you must be wondering who I am. I''m not the Evil Cultivation God but the Great Demon God. As for the Evil Cultivation God, I am afraid that you won''t be able to meet him ever again. As for the Pce Master of the Evil Cultivation Pce, this position is vacant for the moment¡­"

    "¡­ the reason why you are seeing my manifestation in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is because of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan¡­"

    "¡­ Sword Saint Ji Yuan, I must admit that I didn''t put you into my calctions and you are indeed a variable that can affect my chessboard¡­"

    "¡­ You have not only defeated my Number 2 and I have also heard that you had soundly defeated the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian, saving me a lot of troubles. I must say that I am most impressed by you¡­"

    "¡­Therefore I am offering you the position of the Pce Master of the Evil Cultivation Pce to rule the Deste Celestial Fraternity in my stead¡­"

    "¡­ All you have to do is to surrender the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Little Princess to me. And you have a week to consider before I wille and pay you a personal visit¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly raised his profound voice to shout loudly, "What if I reject your offer? What if I refuse to surrender Xue Qianxue and Little Princess to you?"

    The Great Demon Godughed and he seemed to be looking at Ji Yuan from the heavens, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have finally met. I don''t know how you are able to attain to the 9th realm cultivation or how you have a true divinity sword. But I value your fighting strength. If you serve me with all your heart then I shall bless you with the various profound treasures from the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "However, if you oppose me then I shall massacre everyone in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and everyone that is rted to you, whether they are your blood lines or not. As long as they know you, I shall massacre all of you¡­"

    "¡­ Don''t take my threats lightly for I am the True God of the Great Deste Immortal Realm. In the Celestial Realm, I am now supreme¡­"

    "¡­ Now the next message that I have is for the Death God Mingwang. Maybe you are not here but I am sure that my messages will sooner orter get to your ears. I wee you back to my Great Deste Divine Pce to be my right hand divine ruler. As soon as you return to my side, I know that you are still on my side¡­"

    Yun Chi whispered to Ji Yuan: He probably wants the 50 billion high grade spirit stones that I''ve gained inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to power his profound floti.

    Ji Yuan turned to smile weakly at Yun Chi: You don''t mind if you can give me 0.01% of your spirit stones?

    Yun Chi smiled to him: I can''t. It is for our daughter''s upbringing costs.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Great Demon God chuckled, "I''ve been thinking that maybe the Death God Mingwang and Sword Saint Ji Yuan may be the same person after all. Hahahaha¡­"

    The reason why the Great Demon God had thought so was because Ji Yuan had advanced his cultivation realm too rapidly and that he was also able to obtain a true divinity sword. Also, Ji Yuan also specialized in the life and destruction sword energies that the Death God Mingwang was renowned with.

    He had even suspected that Ji Yuan may be the alter ego of the Death God Mingwang and he was seeking to undermine his schemes secretly.

    After all, the Death God Mingwang is also a True God and he cannot be underestimated.

    And he had even suspected that the Death God Mingwang had banged the Xue Qianxue and Little Princess ahead of his schemes.

    Therefore, he had purposely said so in front of the thousands of cultivators to sow discord between Ji Yuan and them, even if it was not the truth.

    But at the same time, he was informing the Death God Mingwang that he could forgiven him as long as he could return to his side.

    The Great Demon God continued to say, "The next message is for the Goddess Alyssa. I know that you are not here but you will be resourceful to know my message for you soon. I know that you have fled from the Great Forsaken Basin. If you are willing to return to my side as well, I can forgive you for your past trespasses. You must know that I am a most generous True God and I will honor my words."

    With that, he had disappeared from the dark heavens and after a while, the bright heavens were also slowly restoring.

    Yun Chi asked Ji Yuan, "So, what do you want to do now?"

    Ji Yuan frowned coldly, "I haven''t got the chance to curse him loudly and he had disappeared. I won''t cooperate with the killer of my Jiajia. Good, I shall see him in 5 days'' time to avenge for my Jiajia!"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly to him, "Good. Then you got 5 days to prepare yourself."

    Then she tenderly said to him, "Ji Yuan, be careful. The Great Demon God isn''t someone that you can defeat easily. I will¡­ stand and fight with you. So, what are your ns for the next 5 days?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I need to find a cure for my waist. Damn Lu Jiangsu, I feel that I got cursed by her¡­"

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu had certainly heard him as did all the maidens of Ji Yuan and she was coldly saying angrily to him. "I am sure that you aren''t finding a cure for your waist to fight the Great Demon God but you want to do something else in your bedroom, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Does she have to be so blunt?

    All the other maidens were suddenly flushing coyly as they pretended not to hear the Lovely Empress especially Shui Xisi; in the past 5 days, Ji Yuan had indeed been using his waist too many times.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi pretended to say, "I am going to make some profound tonic for my lord¡­"

    Shangguan Yan also pretended to say, "I just remember that I have to continue practicing my swordy. I''ve got to go now¡­"

    All the maidens were hastily pretending to find an excuse to leave as they quickly realized that Ji Yuan may want to continue his activities with the maidens that had just arrived.

    Xu Yifei looked a little dejected but Tang Manni smiled to her, "My good sister, why don''t we go somewhere to chat?"

    Shui Qingqing had suddenly said to them, "May I know you as well?"

    She looked visibly sad too as Ji Yuan had been ignoring her.

    "I''ll join you too," The Lovely Empress had suddenly called out to them from behind.

    Ji Yuan was left wondering if they may be nning something sinister against him, especially when he saw that the Lovely Empress was giggling and swinging her butt in his direction.

    He muttered to himself: After I''ve banged you, I dare you to swing your butt at me...

 Chapter 1160 With my Chenxi and YanEr

    Chapter 1160 With my Chenxi and Yan''Er

    Ji Yuan was alone with both Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan now.

    And he was hugging both of them, one on the left and the other on the right.

    "Chengxi, Yan''Er. It has been a long time since the three of us are together. Many things had happened while I was away," Ji Yuan sighed heavily.

    He then added, "I really envy the two of you that you can get to spend time with Jiajia while she was in the Emperor Hall Sect¡­ but Jiajia is no longer around now."

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "That''s right. My lord, don''t forget to spend time to think about your baby son''s name or Maiden Xue Qianxue will be upset with you. Jiajia is no longer around with us anymore and you are still thinking about her¡­"

    "No, Yan''Er." Ji Yuan interrupted her gently.

    Then he said firmly to her and also to Fairy Ye Chengxi, "Jiajia is not dead. She talks to me just a few days ago."

    Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi: ¡­

    They were both thinking that Ji Yuan had not got over with Jiajia''s death yet and they were beginning to wonder what Maiden Shui Xisi had told Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan looked up to the heavens and grinned, "I''ll surely see my Jiajia very soon. But first, I got to kick the ass of this Great Demon God first."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi asked anxiously, "My lord, are you able to defeat this¡­ Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course I can! With Yun Chi''s help, this Great Demon God is surely dead for sure. When the two of them are fighting, I will suddenly appear and run my sword into this Great Demon God. Haha¡­"

    Shangguan Yan looked startled, "This isn''t what Maiden Yun Chi had said to us. She said that while you are fighting with the Great Demon God, she will then appear and run her sword into the Great Demon God."

    "What the heck?!" Ji Yuan nearly fainted when he had heard her.

    Shangguan Yan said weakly, "Maiden Yun Chi is pregnant with your child now and she cannot exert herself."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly muttered, "Then why don''t she sit on one side and just smile to herself?"

    Yun Chi was always smiling wryly as though everything was none of her concern.

    Shangguan Yan said to him, "She says that you probably need help to fight with Number 1 and she will probably be helping you to deal with Number 1 so that you can focus on fighting the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Actually, I would rather fight Number 1. I feel that my chances of survival is much higher if I were to fight Number 1."

    "Then who will fight the Great Demon God?" Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Actually I am waiting for my old master to arrive with his sword cultivators to give me a helping hand. Hahaha¡­"

    Shangguan Yan said to Ji Yuan, "All the celestial fraternities are separated by a deste wall of mists so you can''t fly or use a teleporting array. In order to travel from one celestial fraternity to another, you need to travel for months."

    Ji Yuan asked weakly, "How far is the Endless Celestial Fraternity from us?"

    Shangguan Yan said, "Maybe very far away. I have never even heard of this celestial fraternity before. Our grand prot¨¦g¨¦ master is really from the Endless Celestial Fraternity?"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan felt like banging his head now.

    Ji Yuan looked at both Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan weakly, "How many great saints and saints have gathered in the past few days?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi quickly replied, "No great saints but 3 saints have arrived to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan stammered with great shock, "Only 3 saints? What the heck happened to all the great saints in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?! I need more great saints and great saintesses to fight the uing battle together. I''ve thought that my victory over the Sword Immortal Heng Haijian has now spread to all over the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    Fairy Ye Chenxi smiled weakly, "My lord, you are thinking too fast. Slow down a bit. The Evil Cultivation Pce still controls much of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Your victory may spread in the domains of the Evil Cultivation Pce but for the resisting groups, they may not receive any news of your victory yet."

    "Right," Shangguan Yan added. "Most of the golden celestials may be still hiding below the deste mists and afraid toe out after the battle when they had first returned. "So how could they have heard of your victory and moreover, with profound ships and flying mounts, how do you expect for them to cross thousands of mountains to reach the Pentecost Mountains in just a matter of days?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm¡­ good point."

    "But it is alright. We are prepared to fight with you and to die with you," Fairy Ye Chengxi said firmly.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Actually this isn''t my n at all."

    Shangguan Yan was startled, "This isn''t your n? But isn''t it your n to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce in this ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "My n is actually to unite all the returning golden celestials to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce together."

    Shangguan Yan asked him, "Is 5000 cultivators enough?"

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes with a sheepish look, "The low level cultivators are kinda useless."

    When he had said that, both Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were both hanging their heads in shame; they really wanted to help Ji Yuan as much as they could.

    "I don''t mean the two of you," Ji Yuan quickly tried to cheer them up.

    He quickly said, "I mean the 4th realm and below cultivators. Hahaha¡­"

    Shangguan Yan smiled weakly, "it is alright, my lord. I know that I am useless."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Yan''Er, I''m sorry¡­"

    Shangguan Yan smiled, "Don''t worry about me. I am alright. But there is a maiden that doesn''t look alrighttely. You ought to pay her a visit, my lord."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Who?"

    Shangguan Yan answered, "Maiden Lu Jiangsu. She seemed quite depresstely. Please talk to her, alright?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Alright my Yan''Er¡­"

 Chapter 1161 The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu

    Chapter 1161 The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu

    Ji Yuan was now alone with the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    He grinned to her, "What has got over youtely? You seem to be unhappy with me?"

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "Did I? I think not. You are just over imagining things."

    Ji Yuan inhaled deeply before he said, "I know that you are upset with me for ignoring you, am I right?"

    The Lovely Empress looked away and refused to say a word.

    Ji Yuan exined, "I have not seen my maidens for such a long time. And I need to apany them¡­"

    "You don''t have to exin. Of course, I know but this is none of my business," the Lovely Empress interrupted him coldly.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stroked the Lovely Empress on her cheek, startling her. "Jiangsu, actually I do like you a lot. I really do¡­"

    "You do?" The Lovely Empress was suddenly flushing and looking at Ji Yuan shyly.

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly, "Of course I do. Can''t you tell?"

    "I really can''t tell at all," the Lovely Empress hummed coldly.

    Ji Yuan bitterly smiled, "With great poweres great responsibility. Also, my opponent is not just the Evil Cultivation Pce but the Great Demon God and Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao. I may die soon and that is why I have been suppressing my feelings for you. Do you understand me? Do you understand why I had tried to ignore you?"

    The Lovely Empress asked unhappily, "So, what are you trying to say and stop beating around the bushes."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I want to take you as my consort after I have defeated the Great Demon God. I wonder what do you think about this?"

    The Lovely Empress was startled and she was staring at Ji Yuan with great disbelief, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Really. I really do like you a lot. But I don''t want to hurt you if I died."

    The Lovely Empress was gasping softly and her lovely golden eyes were bleary, "I am so happy to hear this. Promise?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Promise. I''ll promise you this."

    The Lovely Empress hung her head shyly, "I will remember this¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had turned to kiss Ji Yuan on his lips passionately and this surprised Ji Yuan.

    "This?!"

    "Shut up, Ji Yuan."

    And soon, they were rolling on the bed and Ji Yuan was feeling his hands all over the lovely body of the Lovely Empress.

    Then he was pulling down her bodice under her opened robe to pop up her lovely white bunnies.

    "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?" The Lovely Empress gasped with shock at Ji Yuan''s dirty fingers.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Today, you are not going to escape from my wicked hands¡­"

    As he said that, he had grabbed and squeezed her white bunnies, causing the Lovely Empress to gasp softly with delights.

    Anyang had suddenly popped in to warn Ji Yuan: My lord. Have you forgotten the reason why you have not been touching Maiden Lu Jiangsu?

    Ji Yuan simply replied her: To hell with my reason.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother changes his mind all the time. This is his principle of being an unprincipled cultivator.

    Anyang muttered weakly: So much for his reason for being the Gentleman of the Sword. Under the skirt of the Lovely Empress, he surrenders his will so quickly...

    But she was soon giggling with Xiang Li: Never mind. Let''s enjoy the free show.

    Ji Yuan was soon putting his hands into her skirt and saw that she was already wet underneath.

    So he got into action very fast and was quickly pulling down her panties.

    The Lovely Empress gasped at his audacity.

    But Ji Yuan simplyughed and said tenderly to her, "This may hurt for the first time but I will be gentle with you¡­"

    The Lovely Empress interrupted him with a soft chuckle, "I am afraid that your waist will hurt more, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Don''t jinx me."

    The Lovely Empress asked him shyly, "So, among all the maidens, which one you donate your yang essence the most?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am a fair person so I donate my yang essence equally among my maidens."

    The Lovely Empress stared intently at him, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan put on a straight face and grinned, "Of course!"

    He didn''t want to tell her that half of his yang essence was donated to Shui Xisi and he was also banging her the longest.

    Then he was hastily tearing off the rest of her clothing and he was gasping with admiration at her lovely body.

    Ji Yuan had only one word to say and he had regretted not banging her earlier; she was indeed worth 50 million high grade stones.

    The Lovely Empress was also giggling lovingly.

    It was because she was finally feeling that she was part of Ji Yuan''s harem now and part of Ling Feiyue''s group now.

    Actually, Ji Yuan did not know that Ling Feiyue had already started a new round of gossips and had already told almost all the maidens about the secret affair that was between Shui Xisi and him.

    Naturally, Ling Feiyue had only gossiped about Shui Xisi when she was not around. Also, she did not gossip when Shui Qingqing was around too.

    Shangguan Yan was startled to learn that Ji Yuan had been banging the Pce Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce.

    "What have I done that day?"

    Ling Feiyue also pointed out, "Did you all notice that the time that Ji Yuan had spent with Maiden Shui Xisi is also the longest too?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled wryly, "Feiyue, it seems that you are quite close to this Pce Matriarch Shui Xisi now that you even call her Maiden Shui Xisi instead of her title. In terms of cultivation, she is actually our senior."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "We have been through some life and death experiences together. But of course, the closest sister to her is now our Lovely Empress here."

    The Lovely Empress disyed an ugly look and showed none of her loveliness, "This Ji Yuan is too lecherous. I am waiting for him to break his waist and bing an impotent man."

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    Nowadays you even dare to curse my man in front of your mistress?

    Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    Third sister is too moody nowadays¡­

    The Lovely Empress continued unhappily, "I don''t really care about this Ji Yuan, you know. But all of you are just harming him by affecting his cultivation time and recovery time. Do you all know that we are going to fight the Great Demon God very soon and we need Ji Yuan to be in his peak performance or we will all be screwed by the Great Demon God? With the exception of Maiden Xu Yifei here, all of you are sucking him dry. Aren''t all of you shameful at all?"

    Little Princess smiled mesmerizingly, "Ji Yuan is our Ji Yuan and not your Ji Yuan. What right do you have to criticize us?"

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly, "I have the good interest of the Celestial Realm in my heart, that''s why."

    Her noble and righteous words impressed some of the maidens like Fairy Ye Chengxi, Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, Feng Minyue, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    But to Yun Chi, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Shangguan Yan, Ling Tianshui, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess, it was not so impressive as they all suspected that she was unhappy because Ji Yuan had not banged her yet.

    The Lovely Empress said to them with an unpleasant look, "Did I just spoil your happiness? You should all be grateful that there is someone like me that is willing to tell you an honest word or two."

    Little Princess asked her with a wryly smile, "But if you were Ji Yuan''s consort, will you still say the same thing and hands off Ji Yuan?"

    The Lovely Empress answered with great righteousness, "Of course! I will let him focus on his cultivation and prepared himself for the fight against the Great Demon God!"

    Many of the maidens were still thinking shyly about their blissful time with Ji Yuan and could only weakly smile at the Lovely Empress.

    Yet, they didn''t dare to rebuke her as she was not wrong to suggest so.

    This conversation had actually just happened a few hours earlier.

    However, right at this very moment, the Lovely Empress and Ji Yuan were passionately entangling together on the bed.

    Thest thing that was on their minds was cultivation or the fight against the Great Demon God.

    The beautiful moans of the Lovely Empress were soon heard exotically filling the room and Ji Yuan was soon exploring her jaded naked body.

    Soon he was inhaling excitingly as he admired the lovely naked body of the Lovely Empress in front of him, "I''ming into you¡­"

 Chapter 1162 Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei

    Chapter 1162 Ji Yuan and Xu Yifei

    After Ji Yuan had pacified the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, he had found time to be with the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    Xu Yifei was shyly looking at Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan knows that Xu Yifei was here in the Celestial Realm only because of him.

    But he did not want to hurt her if he died so he used the same excuse that he had given to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu as he sighed. "With great poweres great responsibility. As you know, I have a heavy burden on my shoulder as everyone expects for me to fight against the Great Demon God. As you know, we are few in numbers and our enemies are numerous¡­"

    Xu Yifei looked at him tenderly as she sat enticingly next to Ji Yuan, "Master Ji Yuan, are you afraid? It is alright to be afraid. Our enemy is a true god after all."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he looked at Xu Yifei.

    The truth was, Ji Yuan had the iron guts of a donkey and he had never been afraid before. So he actually did not know what fear or afraid really is.

    Because of this reason, he was not averse to taking risks and to fight the strong profound beasts.

    Even when his old master forced him to take the test of courage by jumping down the cliff with a rope hanging on his waist, he was not fearful of being killed or was afraid.

    Ji Yuan was someone that could walk into a lion''s den out of curiosity.

    In fact, he was thinking of going to the Great Forsaken Basin all by himself if he could. But their only remaining profound ship had few profound energies remaining and much of it was used to power the defensive profound arrays of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect too.

    Even the profound ships that hade with Xue Qianxue did not have plenty of profound energies left as they had been fighting against the Evil Cultivation Pce for the past several months and they had lost their mines.

    Ji Yuan actually had plenty of spirit stones which he had obtained while he was in the Spirit Divine Realm and he had thought of secretly hijacking a profound ship on his own.

    But then unlike in the cultivation stories, he found out that he did not know how to fly a profound ship on his own and profound ships actually needed quite a number of crews to operate.

    He felt like burning his cultivation stories in a moment of rage.

    "What the heck? I can''t mind control the profound ship like in the cultivation stories?!"

    He had to suck his thumb and went back to his cultivation chamber to think of a new n. That was when Shui Xisi hade to cheer him up and told him that Jiajia did not die.

    Her news had cheered Ji Yuan''s mood and for a time he had given up his n of confronting the Evil Cultivation God alone.

    And then a few dayster, the profound manifestation of the Great Demon God had appeared and he was told that the Evil Cultivation God was no more.

    "What the heck? I didn''t even do anything to screw this Evil Cultivation God. And isn''t the Great Demon God supposed to be screwed already?"

    And all of a suddenly, his opponent had be the Great Demon God instead of the Evil Cultivation God.

    And the Great Demon God had told him that he would being in 5 days'' time.

    "Maiden Yifei, I may not survive my battle against the Great Demon God. But if I do survive my battle against him, I will surely take you as my consort. But I wonder if you are agreeable with this?"

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei turned to look mncholy at him, "You are only taking me as your consort because of my Sister Tang Manni or because you like me?"

    Ji Yuan said tenderly to Xu Yifei, "Yifei, of course it is because I like you. I like you very much and I want to be with you."

    When Xu Yifei had heard Ji Yuan, she was gasping softly. "Real¡­ really?"

    Ji Yuan nodded firmly, "Of course. I love you, Yifei."

    His confessions had caused Xu Yifei to lean on him and to hug him tightly, "Master Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I did tell you not to call me Master Ji Yuan anymore. Just call me Ji Yuan, alright?"

    Xu Yifei buried her head in his head affectionately and she was sobbing quietly, "Alright¡­"

    Ji Yuan embraced her fragrant body warmly but he made no attempt to molest her even though he wanted to.

    He was just contended to embrace Xu Yifei warmly and enjoyed this blissful moment with her.

    Xiang Li said to Anyang: I think Big Brother has broken his waist with the Lovely Empress.

    Anyang nodded: I think so as well. His yang essence is almost emptied now. He didn''t sleep for 6 days now and he had been banging nonstop for the past 6 days. I think that he would be impotent soon.

    Xiang Li asked Anyang: Why do you say so?

    Anyang replied her: Given our lord nature, he would not give up a chance for a good bang but he did not.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately: Look. I am just cherishing this beautiful moment between the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and I. Who says that I''ve broken my waist and is getting impotent?

    Then he was frowning to them: Why am I trying to reason with two fairy maidens that can''t even tell that I am just trying to be a Gentleman of the Sword and a romantic cultivator¡­

    All of a sudden Xu Yifei had leaned on him and she was kissing him passionately.

    Ji Yuan''s formidable defenses were suddenly ripped apart by Xu Yifei''s suddenly kiss and he was suddenly kissing her passionately in return. Not only that, he was also groping Xu Yifei all over her body as well.

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: That''s my Big Brother!

    Anyang weakly said: I think that I can only believe our lord for just 1 minute. I think he has totally forgotten what he had just said a moment ago¡­

 Chapter 1163 Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing

    <h4>Chapter 1163 Ji Yuan and Shui Qingqing</h4>

    After Ji Yuan had banged Xu Yifei and he had taken her chastity, it was time for Ji Yuan to have a private chat with Shui Qingqing.

    He was looking full of regrets that he had taken the chastity of the Lovely Empress and Xu Yifei in a moment of spur when he was not supposed to bang them.

    "What is wrong with me? I must be getting old and senile now¡­"

    "s, I am more than 500 years old now¡­"

    "How did my defenses break so easily?"

    "How can I resist the temptations of the Evil Cultivation Pce in the future? They have so many beautiful maidens in their cultivation sect¡­ s¡­ one day, I will surely be a living cauldron of their evil dual cultivation practices. It must be because I had killed the 3 beautiful maidens from the Evil Cultivation Pce and their spirits havee back to haunt me¡­"

    He was determined to control himself this time.

    "Ji Yuan," Shui Qingqing shyly called out to him. "Or should I call you the Great Hero Ji Yuan now?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Just call me Ji Yuan. We are friends after all¡­"

    But Shui Qingqing interrupted him with soft and affectionate looks, "Senior Ji Yuan. Your cultivation is 2 major realms above me now. I ought to address you as my senior. Moreover, you are also older than me too. Calling you by your name without any titles are just too disrespectful for you."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "What if I insist that you call me Brother Ji Yuan?"

    Slowly, Shui Qingqing quietly nodded, "Alright then. Brother Ji Yuan¡­"

    Then she had hung her head with great mncholy to say, "I still remember there is a time before you had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that the two of us are still around the same cultivation realm. And we had even fought together twice. One time in a cave and the other time against the two Evil Citadel Lords. But now, you are so strong now¡­ I wish that my prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress had allowed me to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you. Maybe I would also be much stronger now."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, your prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress Shui Xisi didn''t gain any cultivation realms while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. So it is not a sure thing that you would be able to find your lucky urrences in there¡­"

    As he was saying this to her, he was thinking that Shui Xisi is a peaked great saintess anyway and she has reached her bottleneck already. So it is normal that she could not advance in her cultivation realm since she is already a peaked great saintess and the 7th realm is the ceiling for the celestial cultivators.

    Shui Qingqing said with great shyness to Ji Yuan, "I¡­ it is good that you''vee back now. All your maidens are waiting for you¡­ including my prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress."

    Ji Yuan quickly said to her with a weakughter, "There is absolutely nothing between your prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and I. Hahaha¡­ we are merely friends."

    Shui Qingqing sighed and lowered her head woefully, "If my prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress like you, you will ept her?"

    All of a sudden, she was looking with bleary eyes at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled that Shui Qingqing would suddenly ask him this question and he was surprised, "Why do you want to ask this question? It is impossible between us. Hahaha¡­"

    Anyang reminded him: My lord, may I remind you that you had banged Shui Xisi the most numbers of times only quite recently.

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang and ignored her.

    But he was puzzled why Shui Qingqing had suddenly asked her this question.

    There was a reason why Shui Qingqing had asked this question; it was because she liked Ji Yuan and if her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress also liked him that she would have no chance. The Water Melody Pce is an orthodox celestial cultivation sect after all and it is unthinkable for both a prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and her prot¨¦g¨¦ to be consorts to the same man.

    The seniority would then be in a terrible mess and the Water Melody Pce would then be the mockingughter of the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Shui Qingqing looked innocently at Ji Yuan and she was slowly smiling.

    Her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress had imed that there was nothing between Ji Yuan and her.

    And now, Ji Yuan was also saying the same.

    Although Shui Qingqing had heard some gossips that were about her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and Ji Yuan but her good heart believed in everything her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and Ji Yuan had said to her.

    Ji Yuan did not know the reason why she had asked and he was denying his affair with Shui Xisi because the two of them were happy to try to hook wink the other maidens.

    Ji Yuan had said to his maidens, "I am not so lecherous to take Jiajia and her sister as well¡­"

    "But you have taken the two of us," Hua Wuwu reminded him of her sister Hua Baiyue and her.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was also saying, "Don''t forget my half sister Yang Mi as well."

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear them as he walked away while muttering, "I just remember that I have some cultivations to do¡­"

    Shui Qingqing had suddenly asked Ji Yuan with a coyly look, "Brother Ji Yuan, do you think that we have a chance in the future?"

    Ji Yuan patted Shui Qingqing''s shoulders and said to her tenderly, "I shall give you a reply after my battle with the Great Demon God. After all, I don''t know if I will be alive after this¡­"

    Then he pretended to sigh with great mncholy, "As you know. With great poweres great responsibility."

    Shui Qingqing asked him with a fearful look, "I don''t want my Brother Ji Yuan to die. Can we win?"

    Ji Yuan sighed, "I''ve explored 1,40,00,605 possible oues during my cultivation rest and there is only one possible oue that we can win¡­"

    Anyang immediately said to Xiang Li in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Our lord had been banging his maidens during his cultivation rest and there is no way that he has been spending any time thinking how he could have defeated the Great Demon God. I say that the 1,40,00,605 times are actually his little Ji Yuan instead and he was trying to think of swimming his little Ji Yuan to score a victory¡­

    Ji Yuan nearly choked when he had heard Anyang and he had also stopped halfway too because of that.

    Shui Qingqing asked him curiously, "Brother Ji Yuan, you are saying that there is only a possible oue that you can win? What is it?"

    Ji Yuan turned to Shui Qingqing as he said solemnly, "Pridees before the fall. The Great Demon God will fall when he is at the peak of his pride. That is when my counter attack shall begin."

    Shui Qingqing: ¡­

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang weakly said to Xiang Li: I think our lord forgets to mention the fact that he may be killed before he has a chance for his counter attack."

 Chapter 1164 Ji Yuan and all his Maidens

    <h4>Chapter 1164 Ji Yuan and all his Maidens</h4>

    The changes in the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were all too obvious for all the maidens because she was smiling lovingly again.

    In fact, her loveliness filled the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and her beautiful softughter could be heard.

    Also, she had a beautiful and shy glow on her countenance as she went about her daily business.

    Many of the maidens had even spotted her visiting Ji Yuan as many as 3 times a day.

    Naturally many of the maidens were not stupid and they had already guessed what had happened.

    Zhi Jiugong pretended to ask her, "My good sister saintess Jiangsu, you seem to be quite happytely?"

    The Lovely Empress giggled softly, "Am I? I''m always like this. Hehe."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden pretended to curse Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan is supposed to be cultivating. Why is that I keep seeing so many maidens disturbing him? I''m going to stand guard at his cultivation chamber to prevent anyone from disturbing my junior brother."

    The Lovely Empress panicky said, "Wait! Don''t! I don''t think it is that nice to disallow Ji Yuan''s consorts from visiting him and to show him their affections. Am I right? Also, Ji Yuan may need their spiritual support to steel his mind against his fight against the Great Demon God. So, we shouldn''t disturb him¡­"

    Then she quickly thought of another reason and added panicky, "Also, many of his consorts have not seen him for so many months. It is a little cruel not to prevent them from seeing each other, am I right?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden pretended to ponder, "Mm, good point. Good Sister Jiangsu, you are indeed right. I am acting too rush and without thinking."

    The Lovely Empress giggled lovingly before she danced away with great delight and whistling a beautiful tune, leaving the Smiling Divine Maiden and Zhi Jiugong to giggle softly behind her back.

    Their prot¨¦g¨¦ sister the Lovely Empress was acting sopletely different just a few days ago.

    Without a doubt, they know that this junior sister of theirs was probably screwed by Ji Yuan and that was why she was acting differently now.

    Zhi Jiugong sighed softly, "After all many thousands of years, this junior sister of ours is still the same. Everything is written on her expression. Can''t she just learn how to hide her thoughts?"

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled divinely, "Then it wouldn''t be our junior sister anymore. She has always been like this. I still remembered how upset she was with Ji Yuan that time and she had even stormed his inn to punish him even though attacking another cultivator is not allowed inside Bliss City."

    Zhi Jiugong chuckled softly, "I just amazed that Ji Yuan didn''t touch such a lovely maiden like our junior sister until now. This is truly amazing."

    The Smiling Divine Maidenughed, "I am also amazed by it as well¡­"

    "So, care to tell me how you have lost yourself to Ji Yuan?" Zhi Jiugong had suddenly interrupted and asked her.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden was suddenly flushing shyly and she was stammering, "He¡­ raped me when I wasn''t paying attention¡­"

    This was a lie of course.

    And even Zhi Jiugong could tell but she chuckled softly, "If you don''t want to share with me then I won''t tell you about my first time with Ji Yuan too."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden shyly grabbed Zhi Jiugong, "Alright my good sister. I''ll tell you mine and you will tell me yours."

    With their soft chuckles in the halls of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, they were both chatting happily as they walked to a somewhere more private ce for their chats.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was not the only maiden that had a sudden blissful look.

    So did Xu Yifei as well.

    Xu Yifei felt like she was finally part of the family now and this fostered her rtionship with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er.

    Her changes were less proimed but it was noticeable by Tang Manni. After all, they had been such close sisters for a long time.

    As for Shui Qingqing, she was also disying a blissful look as Ji Yuan had promised to give her an answer after his battle with the Great Demon God.

    And this gave her a hope that Ji Yuan would take her as his consort after his battle with the Great Demon God.

    Shui Qingqing is a really na?ve maiden and she did not know that Ji Yuan actually have a rtionship with the rest of the maidens. All these maidens are all Ji Yuan''s lovers and not his admirers.

    She had no idea that she was the only maiden that was untouched by Ji Yuan.

    However, she had found a good sister and friend in the Lovely Empress and Xu Yifei in the past few days.

    -

    -

    -

    This was Ji Yuan happiest week as he spent plenty of time with his maidens.

    He was finally with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    He was with Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as well.

    Even Yun Chi was banged by him and they had to seal off the divine senses of their unborn daughter as she could hear them.

    Ji Yuan also had private time with Feng Minyue, Ling Tianshui, Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden.

    He was also with Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er. Later Tang Manni had even invited her sister Xu Yifei to join them as well.

    He also had another awesome foursome party with Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess since this was not the first time that they were together.

    Xue Qianxue really missed Ji Yuan a lot and she was looking extremely blissful when Ji Yuan had finally returned.

    "How I envy Feiyue and Little Princess that they are able to join you inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. I wish that I can join you inside as well. Ji Yuan, you have not seen our baby son yet. And what are you going to call him?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "At that time, I was too eager to take vendetta for Jiajia so I didn''t get to see our baby yet¡­"

    Then he pondered for a while before he chuckled, "How about we call our son Ji Tian? Tian as in heaven."

    He was soon sighing, "This is a battle against the heavens now¡­"

 Chapter 1165 The 300 Beautiful Celestial Maidens Plan

    Chapter 1165 The 300 Beautiful Celestial Maidens n

    In the Eastern Regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The Goddess Alyssa was now with the Great Immortal Rohan at the Profound Heaven Sword Manor which was 1 of the 7 major celestial cultivation sects.

    Great Sword Saint Jian Kang used to be the cultivation sect master of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor but he had since gone into hiding to fight the Evil Cultivation Pce in the shadows.

    His daughter was of course the Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and his grandson was Ji Hao.

    When the Evil Cultivation Pce had seized the Deste Celestial Fraternity, half of the elders of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor had surrendered and had be turncoats instead.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was ced in charge of the Eastern Regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity by the Evil Cultivation God and he had taken over the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to be used as his eastern base against the rebel cultivators.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was sighing heavily now, "The Evil Cultivation God is now dead¡­ and so is the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian. The Great Demon God has returned... what should we do now?"

    The Goddess Alyssa was also sighing heavily, "Without the powerful backing of the Evil Cultivation Pce, sooner orter you will lose the Eastern Regions except for this small region here. But can you hold it for long against the might of the Great Demon God?"

    "We are not the same race as the Great Demon God," the Great Immortal Rohan gritted his teeth. "We are the original celestial immortals of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm in the first ce. Our ambition has always been to retake the Nine Heavens from the Pangu Immortals. Because we have fled to the Deste Immortal Realm, we are now called the Deste Immortals."

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled weakly, "We are the forgotten Celestial Immortals. Weird, isn''t it? To call ourselves the Celestial Immortals after the Great Demon God has forsaken us."

    The Great Immortal Rohan took a meaningful look at her, "The Great Demon God has manifested his profound image at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect just a day earlier. He had said that he weed you back to his side. Are you with him or with your race?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said coldly, "I''ve already betrayed the Great Demon God once. Do you really think that I will be so native as to return to his side? Do you really think that he will trust someone that had betrayed him once before?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan asked, "Then what should we do? Go back to the deste mists or to fight against the Great Demon God? We can''t afford to waste our precious cultivators against the rebels anymore and I have ordered the bulk of my fighting cultivators to gather in this ce to defend it. But without a real n, sooner orter we will be defeated."

    The Goddess Alyssa asked, "Why do you ask me?" Aren''t you the overlord of the Eastern Regions now?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled weakly, "You are the brain behind our victory against the Great Demon God and the celestial cultivators in the past. Naturally I have to ask you for any ns."

    The Goddess Alyssa hummed coldly, "I am but a beaten dog now. That is why I havee to take refuge in your domain. If I did not flee in time from the Great Demon God, he would have got me as well."

    The Great Immortal Rohan sighed, "We have known each other for a long time. Stop beating around the bush. I know that you have a n but you are just unwilling to tell me. Just tell me what is in your mind, alright?"

    The Goddess Alyssa hesitated for a while before she said slowly, "We have 2 options now¡­"

    She inhaled heavily before adding, "One. Look for the reincarnation of the Great God Xuan Yuan for protection or¡­"

    "Two. Look for the Sword Saint Ji Yuan and offer to be his ally."

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled bitterly, "I''d prefer the second option as Sword Saint Ji Yuan is the stronger one¡­"

    "You''re not taking vendetta against Ji Yuan for killing the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian?" The Goddess Alyssa asked.

    The Great Immortal Rohanughed jovially, "We are the Deste Immortals. Our way is always the strong subdues the weak and the weak submit to the strong. This Sword Saint killed the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian and he may well be a possible strong ally against the Great Demon God. But I am worried for 2 things¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa continued for him, "You are worried that this Ji Yuan may have used some forbidden arts or profound pills and he may be dying soon. Also, you are unsure if he would be willing to our ally, am I right?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan slowly nodded, "That''s right."

    The Goddess Alyssa sighed softly, "That is also what I am most worried about. But it is a gambit that we must take now. Naturally, we must prepare a good term for this Ji Yuan to ept¡­"

    "For example?" The Great Immortal Rohan interrupted her.

    The Goddess Alyssa sighed softly, "For example, we ought to prepare avish gift for him first. But I don''t know if you are willing to agree or not?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan frowned, "As long as it isn''t something ridiculous, I can consider about this."

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled bitterly, "Firstly, you must return the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to Ji Yuan. As you know, one of his consorts is the Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo¡­"

    The Great Immortal Rohan silently nodded to indicate that he was alright with this.

    "Secondly, freed all the prisoners¡­"

    Again the Great Immortal Rohan was also nodding; if they hope to be Ji Yuan''s ally then it is not unreasonable to free all the prisoners that have opposed them.

    The Goddess Alyssa sighed before she continued, "Thirdly, I want you to prepare 300 of the most beautiful celestial maidens that are on our side to be presented to him. They must all be at least half-step golden celestials. Whether these celestial maidens are forced to join us, from our Evil Cultivation Pce, from your harem or the harems of our leaders, it doesn''t matter. We must all offer them to Ji Yuan."

    This time, there was an ugly look on the countenance of the Great Immortal Rohan.

    It was because he had not yet fulfilled his fun from some of the celestial maidens yet, especially a celestial maiden that was called Chen Hanhan; she was a returning golden celestial from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and had only recently surrendered.

    The Great Immortal Rohan asked bitterly, "Do we have to do it?"

    The Goddess Alyssa sighed, "This Ji Yuan is a renowned lecherous cultivator. He has so many great beauties with them and even the top great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all his consorts. If you don''t satisfy his lusts with 300 of the most beautiful maidens that are on our side, we won''t be able to show our sincerity and he won''t be an ally with us. In the end, even if you don''t agree to do so, you will lose all these beautiful maidens to the Great Demon God and his Evil Cultivation Pce anyway."

    The Great Immortal Rohan slowly nodded, "Alright then¡­ but does that include the Immortal Fairy Lucia as well?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said slowly, "This includes the Immortal Fairy Lucia as well. Ji Yuan can screw with her all he wants."

    The Great Immortal Rohan said weakly, "She is one of our own immortal race and she is also a 8th realm immortal. She won''t be too happy about this or be impressed by this Ji Yuan."

    The Goddess Alyssa said coldly, "I''m afraid that she has no other choices but to make all necessary sacrifices for our immortal race."

    Then she was also smiling, "If this Ji Yuan turns out to be a good investment, then won''t we gain ourselves a good spy on his side?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan began tough jovially, "Good idea. Since she is unwilling to be screwed by me then very well then, let''s try to persuade her to be given to this Ji Yuan instead."

 Chapter 1166 Number 1 vs. Number 2

    Chapter 1166 Number 1 vs. Number 2

    The Forsaken Basin.

    In the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was looking at the broken body of Number 2 Murong Yue who had by now regained the shape of her grotesque body.

    Number 2 Murong Yue hissed at Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "Since I''ve fallen into your hands¡­ why¡­ why don''t you just¡­ kill me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled coldly, "Number 3 and Number 5 actually wish to kill you more than I do. After all, you have humiliated them and they hate you to the core. Even if you die 1 million times, their hatred for you won''t go away. But I have stayed their hands. Do you want to know why?"

    This was something that had perplexed Number 2 Murong Yue and she was wondering why.

    She hissed, "Why? You are not a benevolent person¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao chuckled softly, "Of course I am not."

    She then tossed a profound scroll at her, "When you have fully regenerated, we can have a fight. Don''t you want to fight with me? I shall let you die with dignity instead of a shameful death."

    When Number 2 Murong Yue examined the profound scroll, she was shocked. "This... this is the Great Longevity Scroll¡­ it can even¡­ restore my life force energies¡­ and you just¡­ give it to me???"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao casually said, "It is my reward in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. If you use this Great Longevity Scroll, you will be restored to your peak in no time."

    This Great Longevity Scroll was also Ji Yuan''s reward inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Or rather, he was presented between the Great Longevity Scroll and the Divine Salvation Eye. And Ji Yuan had picked the Divine Salvation Eye instead."

    Number 2 Murong Yueughed coldly, "You will surely¡­ regret this! Do you know how rare¡­ this profound treasure¡­ is? And you are¡­ giving it to me¡­ so that I can kill you? Hahahahaha¡­ do you know that this Great Longevity Scroll can even restore your cultivation realm?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao also tossed her a celestial-step divine sword, "Why don''t you use the Great Longevity Scroll and you will soon know? This divine sword is for you."

    "Ding Xiaoxiao! Ding Xiaoxiao!" Murong Yue hissed aloud, "I''ve thought that I am crazy. But you are¡­ even crazier than me!"

    And Murong Yue had quickly consumed the Great Longevity Scroll and almost immediately, a surge of powerful life force energies began to envelop around her.

    Not only were her wounds fully regenerated now but even her life force energies were also fully restored to her peak. She had not only been restored to her peak but her cultivation realm had also been increased to the peaked 9th realm cultivation!

    Number 2 Murong Yue was now more powerful than when she was fighting Ji Yuan!

    Sheughed coldly as she picked up the celestial-step divine sword as she hissed to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "It is toote for any regrets now. Hahahaha¡­."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was forced back by Number 2 Murong Yue''s powerful profound aura but she replied coldly, "I won''t regret it."

    Immediately she had raised her scabbard and her sword aura had enveloped over her as she had also disyed her sword spirit.

    Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night immediately disyed her powerful sword energies the Lunar Crescent de at Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Two powerful sword energies curved like the crescent of a white moon flew explosively toward Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ding Xiaoxiao immediately raised her scabbard and blocked it with her Sword Dao of the Small Universe but she was also thrown seven steps backward.

    Number 2 Murong Yueughed coldly, "Ding Xiaoxiao! I am a peaked 9th realm immortal now while you are merely at the peaked 8th realm cultivation. Do you think that you can kill me or even hurt me now? When my weakest profound art can make you vomit blood!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao replied, "Well, I have not vomit blood yet¡­"

    Then she added coldly, "You deserve to see my sword¡­"

    When she had said that, her scabbard had transformed into a winged long sword, "This is my true divinity sword the Divine Ptine..."

    Number 2 Murong Yue was shocked, "You¡­ have a¡­ true divinity sword?!"

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao casually said as her sword intentions began to envelop the two of them, "This is my Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe¡­"

    Then her eyes seemed to look at somewhere distant and she was smiling to herself as she recalled the scene when she had used the Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe to fight the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo with Ji Yuan. And at that time, her Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe had evenbined together with Ji Yuan to form a new sword art.

    Number 2 Murong Yue could feel that she was sinking into the ground and no matter how she had tried to muster her profound strength to summon her profound arts to attack Ding Xiaoxiao, all her profound arts went around her and not hitting her.

    Ding Xiaoxiao said as she tiptoed in front of Number 2 Murong Yue the Eternal Night, "Is this all your profound strength as a peaked 9th immortal? Aren''t you ashamed that your profound strength is weaker than my Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe?"

    Number 2 Murong Yue was suddenly horrified as she could not believe that such a powerful profound sword art would actually exist.

    And then, Ding Xiaoxiao had swung her Divine Ptine and a powerful burst of white light had prated through to Number 2 Murong Yue''s body and burst out from the other end of her body.

    Even the powerful stone celestium cell that contained Number 2 had exploded into a hole as a powerful beam of white profound energies were swung from Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s sword.

    Number 2 Murong Yue simply could not believe that even after she had obtained a powerful metamorphosis body, she would still be defeated by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and moreover she was a full realm lower than her.

    Her metamorphosis body soon turned to dust as her cultivation core waspletely shattered by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe.

    Ding Xiaoxiao quietly said, "I must admit that my body isn''t as strong as you and so is my profound strength. But my sword arts are superior than you. Perhaps if you are willing to spend more time with your profound arts, you will have a better chance against me¡­ perhaps not."

    After she had killed Number 2 Murong Yue, her Divine Ptine was reverted to a scabbard again.

    She then took a subtle look at the big hole that she had left behind and quietly said to herself: Ji Yuan, this is what I can do for you. So, make the full use of it. I cannot betray the Great Demon God because I am honor bounded to be in his service¡­

    And with that, she had walked off.

    The profound attack of her Sword Dao of the Beyond Universe had rocked the entire Great Deste Divine Pce, startling everyone including the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God began to sigh heavily in his throne room, "Ding Xiaoxiao has be so strong now that if I don''t make her into my maiden, she would be a random factor in my chess board."

    Number 3 and Number 5 who were in the throne room with the Great Demon God had certainly heard him.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer smiled wryly, "My Great Demon God, it isn''t impossible for Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao to sumb to you. I have a 1 million year old Flower of Blissful lust that can even fill an immortal with great uncontroble lust. I can present it to you to use it on Ding Xiaoxiao¡­"

 Chapter 1167 The Last Banquet

    Chapter 1167 The Last Banquet

    Ji Yuan was now having his first banquet with his maidens in the great hall of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    This was their very first banquet together and probably their veryst too.

    In a few short days'' time, they would be fighting against the Great Demon God himself and his army.

    So, this banquet was not a jovial banquet but a rather solemn one.

    Ji Yuan toasted to all the maidens that were presented which included Shui Qingqing and Shui Xisi, "May we achieve our great victory against the Great Demon God and his Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    Then with a short hesitation, he added. "Even though the Evil Cultivation God is no more but the Evil Cultivation Pce that is created by the Great Demon God still exists. So the battle against the Great Demon God is far from over. Also, we are all here to take vengeance for Jiajia too."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "I must avenge the death of my Sister Feifei whom you all called Jiajia. My sister''s death must be avenged and I shall make the Great Demon God pay with his life!"

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Matriarch Shui Xisi, well said indeed¡­"

    Actually by now, Shui Xisi was quite close to Yun Chi too and Yun Chi needed not address her title but she was only pretending to do so.

    Yun Chi smiled as she continued, "In Ji Yuan''s heart, Jiajia is already his consort and we are all his consorts here so naturally we have to take vendetta for our sister consort as well. But if Ji Yuan takes his vengeance for your sister, then are you going to take your sister ce and be his consort instead?"

    Shui Xisi immediately frowned with a flushed look as she pretended to stare coldly at Ji Yuan, "Him?! Ji Yuan is but an unromantic cultivator and even my sister says so too. I will take him as my lord? He has nothing but a beautiful face. He can dream on! He is nothing but a lustful toad that is hunger over a beautiful swan like me."

    Ji Yuan nearly choked on the wine that he was drinking halfway.

    Many of the maidens were giggling softly as they were well aware that Shui Xisi liked Ji Yuan.

    Shui Qingqing innocently said, "My prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress will never like Ji Yuan because he has no beard now. But¡­"

    She lowered her head to shyly said, "But¡­ I don''t mind¡­"

    Many of the maidens had a knowing look when they saw Shui Qingqing''s coyly look; they had already known about Shui Qingqing''s infatuation with Ji Yuan.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She wanted to say something bad about Ji Yuan but she was quickly sighing softly; she had actually known of Qingqing''s infatuation with Ji Yuan for a long time and it was pointless for her to say anything.

    Many of the maidens had a sheepish look when they imagined Ji Yuan with his beard.

    Ji Yuan was sighing woefully, "s, my beautiful beard has made such a great sacrifice for me¡­"

    Some of the maidens like the Lovely Empress, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue wanted to kill Ji Yuan for mentioning his beard in front of them.

    Ji Yuan continued to say aloud, "My biggest regret in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is that I didn''t manage to find a divine remedy for my lost beard. I am sure that there is a divine remedy somewhere. s¡­"

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Feng Mingyue and Little Princess were secretly looking at one another sheepishly.

    Actually Yu Jingjing had told them that there was indeed a divine remedy in her Holy Oracle Sect and she had even told Ji Yuan about it.

    But Ji Yuan had thought that this was a ruse to get him to go to the Holy Oracle Sect and be with Yu Jingjing instead.

    He hadughed back then, "Jingjing, this same trick had already been used by Xue Qianxue. I''m not falling for this again. Your Holy Oracle Sect is a all-female cultivation sect. There won''t be a beard restoring divine remedy."

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Feng Minyue then told Yu Jingjing not to mention this again to Ji Yuan as they did not want him to get back his beard.

    Ji Yuan had thought that he was very smart not to believe Yu Jingjing as heughed at her, "The same trick cannot be used on me twice. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden Xuan Qianxue was startled by something as she went to a corner to receive a secret transmission.

    Xue Qianxue was now the Chief Commander of the various resistance groups against the Evil Cultivation Pce and she regrly received updates from her scouts.

    So the rest of the maidens continued to chat and drink with Ji Yuan.

    When the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue had returned, she was actually smiling to everyone. "I have 2 good news to inform everyone."

    Everyone: ???

    Ji Yuanughed, "Is the Great Devil God dead? Then I don''t have to do anything now."

    Xue Qianxue shook her head but she was smiling beautifully, "My Old Patriarch Mo Ming had just messaged me. My Mo n has just taken back the Eons Mountains and reim it. And also my Uncle Mo Bei and Maiden Qin Shuang have sends their regards for Ji Yuan."

    Xue Qianxue is a niece of Mo Bei and naturally the Mo n was also her cultivation sect.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What? Senior Mo Bei and Maiden Qin Shuang are both with your Old Patriarch Mo Ming now? And they have even taken back the Eons Mountains? I''ve thought that Senior Mo Bei is a goner or lost somewhere in the deste mists."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "My Uncle Mo Bei is the future leader of the Mo n so naturally he will also have the secret means of making contacts with the Mo n."

    Then Xue Qianxue was smiling wryly again, "The second good piece of news is that my Matriarch Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin have recaptured the Celestial Orthodox Sect from the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan and many of the maidens were gasping with shock.

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "It seemed that after Ji Yuan has reimed the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the Mo n and the Celestial Orthodox Sect have been secretly making preparations to retake their celestial holynd."

    Ling Feiyue turned to Ling Tianshui, "s, we should try to take back our Spirit Blue Moon Sect as well."

    Ling Tianshuiughed softly, "Actually our patriarch and elders are on their way to retake the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. It is just that I''ve forgotten to tell you."

    She was smiling shyly when she had said that; it was because she was too busy in Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber to tell Ling Feiyue and when she was free to tell Ling Feiyue, she was in Ji Yuan''s cultivation chamber instead.

    Xue Qianxue smield, "It''s no wonder why we have no news of the other resistance groups for some time. Ji Yuan''s great victory has given them hope that they would be able to take back their cultivation sects which is their first priority. So instead ofing directly here, they are messing our enemies'' backyard instead."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "It''s no wonder why the Evil Cultivation Pce is so quiet and not making a move against us yet."

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly, "That''s right. There are also reports that in some parts, the Evil Cultivation Pce is fighting against the Evil Cultivation Pce too."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Why is that so?"

    Xue Qianxue said, "It seems that the Eastern Region that is under the Great Immortal Rohan is still loyal to the Evil Cultivation God while the other regions have all surrendered to the Great Demon God."

    She also said, "Right now, the most powerful cultivators of the Evil Cultivation Pce are still at the Great Forsaken Basin. So the other regions are all seeing fierce fighting between the resistance groups and the Evil Cultivation Pce for controls. The situation is actually very messy at the moment. There are now more resistance groups that we have imagined and I guess that these groups are formed by the returning golden celestials that have grouped together to fight against the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded with a grin, "That'' right. Many of the returning golden celestials are not pushovers, especially the saints and great saints of the prominent celestial ns. They just won''t surrender so readily to the Evil Cultivation Pce even if they have lost their cultivation sects."

    Then he wasughing jovially, "It seems that we aren''t fighting this battle alone¡­"

    He had been quite anxious recently as he holed up in his cultivation chamber especially with the arrival of many of his maidens. It was because he was worried that the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect may be attacked by hundreds of thousands of cultivators from all fronts.

    But it seemed to him now that many of the cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce was now fighting their own fire in their back yard and it was too dangerous for them to bring their cultivators from their own regions to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Therefore, the Great Demon God could onlye in the air with his limited number of profound ships and cultivators.

 Chapter 1168 The Great Immortal Rohan is here

    Chapter 1168 The Great Immortal Rohan is here

    Ji Yuan was now in a jovial mood as he continued the banquet with his maidens.

    He was more interested in drinking the beautiful wines than eating.

    As a high level cultivator, Ji Yuan don''t really need to eat or drink.

    The banquet however had dozens of spirit fruits, spirit nts and spirit pearls that could increase one''s cultivation.

    However, there were no roasted or fried meats that Ji Yuan liked to eat.

    It was a rather distasteful banquet for him but his maidens seemed to rather enjoy the food though.

    All of a sudden, a cultivator had entered the great hall and he was gasping panicky, "We saw a big profound shiping. And it is from the Evil Cultivation Pce!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he immediately jumped from his seat and he was shouting to the cultivator, "Show me where you see it!"

    All the other maidens were startled as they did not expect for the Evil Cultivation Pce tounch an attack so quickly.

    Shui Xisi cursed aloud, "A lone profound ship? These cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce must be too tired of living and courting their own death!"

    Ling Feiyue said to her, "It may be just a scouting vessel and they may retreat as soon as we attack them. Or they are just trying to exhaust our mental readiness by making several feign attacks."

    As soon as Ji Yuan was outside the great, he had spotted a ck profound ship in the sky that was approaching at a slow speed toward them.

    He could see several cultivators on the deck of this ck profound ship and he was astonished to see that they were waving white gs instead.

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "They are not here to fight? But whye in such a big profound ship?"

    Ling Feiyue was also frowning too, "This may be a ruse."

    Xue Qianxue nodded, "Maybe this profound ship carries a heavy load of profound bomb and it will detonate when ites near to us. The Evil Cultivation Pce is capable of such a trick."

    Saintess Jian Yuluo said curiously, "Waving a white g means that they are here to talk or surrender. I wonder which one it is?"

    Little Princess was suddenly gasping, "Ji Yuan. My¡­"

    She lowered her head to say quietly, "My mother consort or rather my fake mother the Sagess Alyssa is here. I should call her the Goddess Alyssa now."

    Ji Yuan was startled too.

    He had remembered being hunted by her and then he was forced to enter a cave with Shui Qingqing.

    "Why is she here? To fight us?"

    A profound voice from the ck profound ship was suddenly heard saying, "We havee to talk peacefully with you. I am the Great Immortal Rohan."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Beside the Goddess Alyssa, there is another immortal on board that ship?"

    Xue Qianxue was startled as well and she quickly warned Ji Yuan, "This Great Immortal Rohan is the supreme leader of the eastern regions. He is a high level leader of the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Ji Yuan nodded as he had heard of it as well.

    This Great Immortal Rohan was in charge of the Eastern Regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Yun Chi said quietly, "There are actually 6 other immortals as well."

    Ji Yuan was frowning, "Then they are here to fight. With so many immortals, they can easily captured any cultivation sect with their might. Unfortunately for them, I am here¡­"

    "We havee to talk with the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan," the profound voice of the Great Immortal Rohan continued.

    He had purposely added a ''Great'' in front of Ji Yuan''s Sword Saint title.

    Ji Yuan raised his profound voice to shout across the heavens, "We have nothing to talk about. If you want to fight, just say so. There is no need for you to use such a sneaky attack to bypass our profound arrays. As soon as you are near, we will use our profound arrays against you!"

    Many of the maidens were impressed with Ji Yuan and were saying the same, "Yeah. Let''s fight them!"

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes to look at the maidens that had justmented, especially Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress. "They have 7 immortals on that profound ship. Are you sure that you can survive a fight with an immortal? Even I am unsure that I can survive a fight against 7 immortals."

    Yun Chi smiled to him, "Except for that Great Immortal Rohan, the rest of the immortals seem to be weaker than you. However, you ought to be careful. After all, you won''t know what their immortal profound arts are and it won''t be an easy fight."

    The profound voice of the Great Immortal Rohan echoed back, "Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have brought a handsome gift for you and we are sure that you will like it. May wend and talk? Then you shall decide if our sincerity is enough for you?"

    Ji Yuan echoed back with his profound voice, "A gift? Do you think that I will be easily bribed? I haven''t settled the score with you for killing the Saintess Fang Zhenfei. And you want to talk with me?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan echoed with a heavy sigh, "Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, we have nothing to do with the deaths of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei or for the atrocities that weremitted in this region. Next to me, is the Goddess Alysa and she wants to see her daughter Little Princess as well. We havee in peace. Like you, we do not want to submit to the Great Demon God and we hope to secure an alliance with you. We are willing to talk terms with you..."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Talk terms with us? Will you give up your base at the Profound Heaven Sword Manor? And even the eastern regions?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan echoed, "That''s right. I am willing to return the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to you as a gesture of my goodwill and this includes the eastern region. Also, we havee to fight alongside with you against the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan was startled as he frowned, "Aren''t you from the Evil Cultivation Pce? Why are you betraying the Great Demon God?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan echoed with a heavy sigh, "I am never a willing servant to the Evil Cultivation Pce that is founded by the Great Demon God. I am a deste immortal. Or rather, I am what you call a celestial immortal. We are rted to you."

    Ji Yuan turned to Xue Qianxue to ask, "What do you think?"

    Xue Qianxue smiled wryly back, "Now that you have returned, everyone seems to regard you as the resistance leader than me. You can decide this for all of us."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he raised his profound voice to say, "I don''t mind listening to your peace talks. But it has better to be good."

    The Great Immortal Rohan echoed back, "You will be pleased with our concessions and even our gift for you."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "The gift has better to be good. But I don''t want any divine swords. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi whispered to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, "Look at Ji Yuan. He looks so happy when he is talking about a gift. He is so easily bribed."

    The Lovely Empress was giggling too as she replied, "I totally agree with you as well. He is very poor."

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes sheepishly at them.

    You know that I can hear the two of you, right?

 Chapter 1169 The Peace Treaty

    Chapter 1169 The Peace Treaty

    Ji Yuan said to his maidens, "No matter how valuable the gift is, I won''t be moved. If they are thinking that a mere gift can move me then they are dreaming indeed. Haha¡­"

    Many of his maidens praised Ji Yuan''s firm and honorable stance.

    Shui Qingqing was naturally the most impressed.

    Only Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were unimpressed and they pretended that they were not so friendly to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan frowned silently to himself: The two of them have such double standards¡­

    As Ji Yuan was willing to listen to their peace talks and he was confident that he would be able to beat them with Yun Chi''s help, so they allowed therge ck profound ship tond at the assembly tform.

    Once the ck profound ship hadnded, Ji Yuan was able to see the Great Immortal Rohan and he was being apanied by the Goddess Alyssa as well as several dozens of cultivators.

    Until this ck profound ship hadnded, Ji Yuan and the others were looking quite tense as they were half-expecting for it to be a ruse instead.

    It was not just Ji Yuan''s maidens that were with him but there were some 3000 cultivators as well.

    Ji Yuan had brought more than half of the fighting cultivators with him as he was expecting a battle.

    To be exact, these 3000 cultivators were already there to prepare for an attack when Ji Yuan was outside.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was an imposing man and he was a head taller than Ji Yuan even though Ji Yuan was considered to be quite tall.

    When the Great Immortal Rohan saw Ji Yuan, he immediately smiled. "You must be the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    He had already seen Ji Yuan''s portrait and he knows his likeness.

    JI Yuan answered, "That''s right."

    Standing next to Ji Yuan were Yun Chi and Shui Xisi as the two of them were the strongest cultivators among Ji Yuan''s maidens.

    In a way, they were there to protect the rest of Ji Yuan''s maidens if anything happened.

    The Great Immortal Rohan then turned to introduce the Goddess Alyssa to them, "And this is the Goddess Alyssa."

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled to Ji Yuan and she was also looking at Little Princess as well.

    Ji Yuan immediately said, "Let''se to the point. What do you want?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan nodded and said solemnly, "We havee in peace and hope to conclude a peace talk with you. Also, we are willing to be your ally against the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "What make you think that we will agree to a peace talk with the Evil Cultivation Pce after what you have done to the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Or you are just waiting to backstab us in the back when we are fighting the Great Demon God? Then you are able to im a reward from the Great Demon God."

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled weakly, "Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, please hear our terms of concessions first."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Alright then. This has better to be good."

    The Great Immortal Rohan said, "Firstly, we will not only return the Profound Heaven Sword Manor to the Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and to her father the Great Saint Jian Kang but we will also surrender all our holdings in the eastern regions to you to be in yourmand¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled when he had heard him; it sounded more like a surrender than a peace treaty.

    The Great Immortal Rohan continued, "¡­This naturally included all the prisoners as well. Secondly, we will like to present you a gift to show you our great sincerity."

    Ji Yuanughed, "The gift has better to be good. Like I say, I don''t want any divine swords or even spirit stones."

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens were wondering what this great sincerity gift would be.

    Is it an immortal profound treasure?

    Shui Xisi could not resist whispering to Ji Yuan''s ears: Maybe he wants to offer the Goddess Alyssa to you.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Great Immortal Rohan then pped his hands and the iron d doors in front of the ck profound ship began to swing open and a stairway was formed as well.

    With that, rows of beautiful maidens began to walk out of the ck profound ship and toward the Great Immortal Rohan and Ji Yuan.

    They were all dressed in revealing and enticing beautiful arousing garbs. Even their lips were painted a bright cherry red and all of them had make-up.

    The number of beautiful maidens totaled 300 and there were many beautiful maidens of all kinds. Not only that, they were all at least of the half-step golden celestials as well.

    Ji Yuan was astonished at the sight of so many beautiful maidens that were also high level cultivators as well.

    However, among the 300 beautiful maidens, there was a particr maiden that had caught Ji Yuan''s eyes.

    It was because she was more beautiful than the rest and it was so outstanding that she was able to shine among the 300 beautiful maidens.

    In fact, her great astonishing beauty wasparable to Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Feng Minyue and the Smiling Divine Maiden as well.

    This maiden was dressed in white and blue, that showed her white thighs and beautiful jaded legs. Although she was dressed modesty but her curves were too beautiful and enticing to hide.

    Ji Yuan was also surprised that this maiden was at the eighth cultivation realm: What? 8th realm? She is an immortal cultivator?

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled to Ji Yuan, "What do you think of my gift?"

    Ji Yuan pretended not to show any interest, "You mean that I have to select 1 maiden from the 300 maidens here to be my gift? Do you think that I am a lecherous cultivator?"

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress could not help but nod their heads slightly to indicate that Ji Yuan was indeed a lecherous cultivator.

    This did not escape Ji Yuan''s eyes and this caused him to frown immediately.

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled, "No, all 300 of these beautiful maidens are yours."

    Ji Yuan''s eyes almost popped out and he was trying to suppress his delightful jovialughter.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were shocked.

    There were many ugly looks among Ji Yuan''s maidens when they had heard the Great Immortal Rohan.

    Shui Xisi immediately said to him, "Ji Yuan, we can consider the peace talks but you don''t have to ept his gift¡­"

    But Ji Yuan was already patting the Great Immortal Rohan on his shoulder as though they were brothers, "Hahaha, Brother Rohan. You are a little too generous. Actually, I don''t want any gift but since you have shown me your great sincerity already, I shouldn''t have doubted you your sincerity and make things too difficult for you¡­"

    The Lovely Empress stomped her foot in front of Ji Yuan as she said coldly, "He is going to get his waist broken before his fight with the Great Demon God."

    Shui Xisi was also replying to her, "I am afraid that I have to agree with you on this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    But he pretended not to hear them as heughed jovially with the Great Immortal Rohan.

    All of a sudden, a beautiful maiden had suddenly stepped forward and she was giggling with great delight when she saw Ji Yuan, "It is me. Chen Hanhan. Ji Yuan, do you remember me?"

    Ji Yuan frowned when he saw her; it was because Mu Wan''Er had told him that Chen Hanhan had surrendered to the Evil Cultivation Pce at the very first instance.

    "I don''t know who you are, maiden."

    Chen Hanhan was startled, "Ji Yuan, it is me. I was forced to surrender to the Evil Cultivation Pce. Are you angry with me? If I don''t surrender to the Evil Cultivation Pce, I''d be killed. Then you will be sad and I don''t want you to be sad."

    He turned to say to the Great Immortal Rohan, "Take her away. I don''t want to see her again."

    The Great Immortal Rohan was delighted as he quickly replied, "Sure, Brother Ji Yuan!"

    Chen Hanhan was his favorite concubine and he was still sore about giving her up because she was really very good in servicing him.

    Therefore, he was quite reluctant to give her up.

    But since Ji Yuan did not want her, he happily obeyed him.

    He ordered his cultivators, "Take her away immediately!"

    The Great Immortal Rohan then asked Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, so what do you think of our peace treaty now?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he looked at the stunning immortal maiden earlier that had caught his eyes, "I ought to inspect my gift first, am I right?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan was perplexed, "Inspect your gift?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course. I need to check them for defects¡­"

    The Great Immortal Rohan hastily interrupted Ji Yuan by quickly shouting to the 299 beautiful maidens, "What are you all waiting for all? Hurry up and stripped yourself naked for my Brother Ji Yuan to inspect all of you!"

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens: ¡­

    Many of the male cultivators that were on Ji Yuan''s side were already staring like ravenous wolves at the sight of the 300 beautiful maidens and when they had heard that these beautiful maidens were going to strip in front of them, they were staring in anticipations at their favorite maiden among the 300 beautiful maidens.

    Naturally the Immortal Fairy Lucia, whose Ji Yuan had also shown interest had the highest number of looks by the thousands of male prot¨¦g¨¦s in the ce.

    This also included the Great Immortal Rohan and his male cultivators.

    <h4>Chapter 1170 The Immortal Fairy Lucia</h4>

    The Goddess Alyssa was also shouting aloud to the 299 beautiful maidens that were presented, "Hurry up and strip. What are you all waiting for?"

    Many of the beautiful maidens were panicky stripping when they had heard the Goddess Alyssa shouting at them as they feared her more than the Great Immortal Rohan.

    Even though it was humiliating for them but this was an order for them.

    Some of the beautiful maidens were even in tears.

    There were even some cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce among them and they felt humiliated by their own leaders who had given them away and did not give them any dignity at all.

    Ji Yuan quickly stepped forward to stop them from stripping, "Wait, wait! This isn''t what I mean!"

    The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were both startled, "This isn''t what you mean? Didn''t you say that you want to inspect your gift?"

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens were also thinking about the same thing as well and were looking curiously at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I don''t have any dirty thoughts like you. I just want to ask them some questions, that''s all. After all, I am a Gentleman of the Sword. Hahaha¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had mentioned his alias, many of his maidens were rolling their golden eyes and were thinking that Ji Yuan was just talking crap.

    The Great Immortal Rohan asked curiously, "You want to ask them some questions?"

    Ji Yuan continued with a grin, "Of course."

    All of a sudden JI Yuan was pointing at the stunning maiden that he had noticed earlier, "I want to her some questions for a start."

    That stunning maiden was naturally the Immortal Fairy Lucia and she was startled.

    "What is her name?" Ji Yuan asked the Great Immortal Rohan.

    The Great Immortal Rohan replied immediately, "She is the Immortal Fairy Lucia."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "So she is really an immortal? You are even willing to give an immortal maiden to me?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan smiled, "Naturally we have to show you our great sincerity¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted him, "Maybe you just want to nt a spy next to Ji Yuan. He won''t fall for your trip¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he pretended not to hear Shui Xisi and he was quickly saying in the direction of the Immortal Fairy Lucia.

    "This Immortal Fairy Lucia, you don''t mind stepping forward so that I can ask you some questions?"

    When Ji Yuan had said that, the Immortal Fairy Lucia slowly walked forward to Ji Yuan.

    She was even more stunning and astonishing beautiful than Ji Yuan had expected when she was closer to him.

    Ji Yuan could now see her delicate features clearly now.

    Ji Yuan asked the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Is this your own free will that you are willing to be presented to be as a gift?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia answered emotionlessly with her head and eyes lowered, "The strong has always dictated the weak. It is our way to submit to the strong."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly put his fingers on her chin to lift her head up, "This may be the way of your immortal race but this is not from the bottom of your heart¡­"

    Shui Xisi was suddenly whispering to the other maidens, "He is putting his oily dirty fingers to take advantage of her now."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes sheepishly because he could hear her loud and clear even though she was whispering to the other maidens.

    But he ignored Shui Xisi to say as he continued to touch her delicate chin and to admire her up close, "I want to hear what you have to say yourself. Are you really as docile as you seem to be?"

    Although he was asking with great righteousness but he was actually taking advantage of this Immortal Fairy Lucia with his fingers but Shui Xisi had seen through his trick instantly.

    The Great Immortal Rohan immediately said to the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Watch out what you are going to say!"

    The Goddess Alyssa was also reminding her, "This is for the good for the sake of the survival of our immortal race in the Celestial Realm!"

    Still, the Immortal Fairy Lucia did not say a thing but stared nkly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan asked her tenderly, "I have heard from one of my consorts that all the Deste Immortals belong to one of the twelve citadels of the Ancient City Fortress. I wonder which of the citadel do you belong to?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia said quietly, "The Null Citadel."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is too much of a coincidence. My consort is also from the Null Citadel and she calls herself the Abyssal Null Goddess. But she is a great goddess now so her new immortal should be the Abyssal Null Great Goddess."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was suddenly gasping with shock as she took a step backward, "My Great Citadel Mistress is your consort?! The Abyssal Null Goddess is your consort? Really?!"

    Then there was a fierce look in her golden eyes as she had suddenly shed a heaven-step divine sword to attack Ji Yuan all of a sudden, "You must have forced the Abyssal Null Goddess to be your consort. You are the real monster!"

    Ji Yuan was not slow to react as he shed his true divinity ck sword to send her flying backward.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was gasping with shock and disbelief, "A true divinity sword?!"

    The Great Immortal Rohan was panicky shouting now, "Fairy Lucia! What are you doing? Are you trying to ruin the peace talks?!"

    Even the Goddess Alyssa was panicky raising her divine sword and shouting, "Don''t let her hurt the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Get her!"

    But Ji Yuan said aloud, "Wait. Don''t hurt her! I will handle her myself!"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia had already lifted her fingers in front of her heaven-step divine sword and she was preparing to use her immortal profound art on Ji Yuan and she had actually disyed her immortal aura to the 8th realm.

    Ji Yuan said to her with a soft sigh, "If you use your 8th realm immortal profound art than with your current cultivation strength, you will be forced to return to the immortal realm and may even lose your cultivation. And it still serves you no purpose because you won''t be my match. If so, then my Qianfeng will be so sad or even be upset with me."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia hummed coldly, "To think that you even know my Abyssal Null Goddess''s true name. No matter what happens to me today, I will kill you¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly mmed his ck sword on the ground and the fierce profound shockwaves that were generated by his ck sword had abruptly interrupted her, forcing her to take several steps backward.

    He was not upset with her but grinned instead, "Since your Citadel Mistress is the Abyssal Null Goddess and the Abyssal Null Goddess is my consort, then I am your Citadel Lord as well. How dare you be so disrespectful in front of me?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia hummed coldly, "How do I know if you are lying to me?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said panicky, "Fairy Lucia. This is the truth. The Abyssal Null Goddess is indeed with the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was startled, "Really? Then where is the Abyssal Null Goddess now?"

    JI Yuan sighed woefully, "My Qianfeng has returned to the Immortal Realm now. She was forced to return to the Immortal Realm after she had unsealed her true cultivation realm in order to help me."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia said quietly, "I''ve the Null Eye Profound Art. If you dare to allow me to touch you then I shall know whether you are speaking the truth or not. But the question is, do you dare to let me touch you?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Why shouldn''t I dare not?"

    The Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi and Ling Feiyue were all shouting to Ji Yuan, "Be careful that this may be a trick!"

    But Ji Yuan answered them, "I believe her."

    Then he grinned to the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Why don''t you try now?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia then walked to Ji Yuan before lifting her fingers to touch his forehead with the Null Eye Profound Art.

    This Null Eye Profound Art is a special immortal profound art that could allow her to ask Ji Yuan''s soul heart directly.

    She actually had only two simple questions to ask.

    Is my Abyssal Null Goddess this Ji Yuan''s consort?

    If the answer is a yes then her question will be: Is my Abyssal Null Goddess his willing consort?

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia got her reply very quickly and she had turned ashen.

    She began to kneel in front of Ji Yuan and said humbly, "My lord, please forgive me for my trespasses. From this day onward, I will follow you faithfully and will be your loyal servant."

    Ji Yuan quickly held her by her white jaded shoulder to help her up and he smiling to her, "Please get up first¡­"

    As he touched her, he was also feeling her smooth and silk shoulders.

    And he was also rubbing against her waist to pretend to help her up.

    Shui Xisi frowned, "She can stand up herself. I don''t see why Ji Yuan is touching all over her. What a Gentleman of the Sword."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to tell everyone what I am doing?

    The Great Immortal Rohan asked weakly, "So, Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan, do you like our great sincerity?"

    Ji Yuanughed off some of his awkwardness by eximing, "Hahaha, Brother Rohan. Since you have shown your great sincerity already, I shouldn''t try to make things too difficult for you¡­"

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly behind Ji Yuan, "Did someone say that he won''t be bribed by any gift earlier?"

 Chapter 1171 Finalizing the Peace Treaty

    Chapter 1171 Finalizing the Peace Treaty

    Ji Yuan and the Great Immortal Rohan were soon in the great hall of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, along with the cultivators from both parties.

    As for the Immortal Fairy Lucia, Ji Yuan allowed her toe along with them.

    For the 299 beautiful maidens, they were not allowed to enter the great hall.

    It was because just these 299 beautiful maidens alone, the number of golden celestials on the side of the Great Immortal Rohan far outnumbered the golden celestials that were on Ji Yuan''s side. And in the event of a fight, Ji Yuan''s side would be at a disadvantage.

    But as part of the peace treaty, Ji Yuan would take them into the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect first as he could not afford to let them be on his opposing side.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was the Commander of the entire Eastern Regions and it consisted of thousands of cultivation sects. So it was easy for him to gather so many golden celestials.

    After several more hours of talks, an official peace treaty was signed through the soul agreements of both parties.

    On the Great Immortal Rohan side, he had signed it with the Goddess Alyssa and 4 others of his highestmand.

    On Ji Yuan''s side, he had signed it with Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Sword Saintess Yuluo, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Shui Xisi.

    When the peace treaty was finally signed, there was a pleased look on both Ji Yuan and the Great Immortal Rohan.

    "Brother Rohan!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan!"

    They were both addressing each other as brothers'' heartily.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi exined weakly to the other maidens, "He have many other brothers too and some are rotten brothers. Don''t mind it too much..."

    The Great Immortal Rohan had exined that he and many of his deste immortals were mostly hiding below the deste mists in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and elsewhere in the past. And that he had only helped the Evil Cultivation God because they were also being forced to. Therefore, they had no reason to continue to help the Evil Cultivation Pce or the Great Demon God.

    As for the Goddess Alyssa, she had admitted that she was amander of the Evil Cultivation Pce but she had denied any involvement in the death of the Saintess Fang Zhenfei or the atrocities that weremitted by the Evil Cultivator Pce.

    She did not ask for Little Princess nor did Little Princess talk to her during the entire meeting; it was as though they did not know each other.

    The Great Immortal Rohan would surrender all his Eastern Regions to Ji Yuan''smand and freed all the prisoners, with no strings attached.

    All he needed was to fight on Ji Yuan''s side and be assured that his group would be allowed to have a small footing in the future in an unimed territory.

    Ji Yuan had plenty of questions during the meeting and the meeting was dragged on because Ji Yuan was being too talkative.

    "I don''t understand why you are surrendering all your holdings. Isn''t it obvious that you have a more superior force than us?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan sighed softly, "Maybe to you the Eastern Regions are vast but to me, it is too troublesome to maintain due to the divided loyalties. There are many cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce that would sooner surrender to the Great Demon God when he hade."

    He replied with great honesty, "The number of cultivators that I can now muster is quite limited. There are many cultivation sects in the Eastern Regions that are under the control of some of the elders of the Evil Cultivation Pce that will not obey my orders to surrender to you. So be prepared for that. It is because they have the intention to surrender to the Great Demon God instead."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That is fine. It seems that you have already anticipated the schemes in their hearts."

    The Great Immortal Rohan also said, "I can only ensure that the prisoners that are under mymand will be freed. We have captured many of the returning golden celestials a week ago and they shall all be freed. They aren''t a lot and totaled around 2000."

    Ji Yuan was delighted; 2000 golden celestials are actually a lot to him!

    And hecked golden celestials now to seriously contest with the Great Demon God.

    Together with the Great Immortal Rohan, they may just gather around 5000 golden celestials for the forting battle.

    The Great Immortal Rohan actually had more than 20 000 golden celestials that were under his indirectmand that were scattered throughout the Eastern Regions but it was hard to move them.

    He had also admitted to Ji Yuan that there were 10 profound ships that were anchoring nearby in case the peace talk had failed and the cultivators from these 10 profound ships would then attack the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect to render assistance to the Great Immortal Rohan.

    Also, the prisoners were in the 10 profound ships rather than with the Great Immortal Rohan as a backup n against Ji Yuan.

    If the peace talks fail then they would use the 2000 prisoners that were on board the 10 profound ships as hostages to negotiate the safe retreat of the Great Immortal Rohan and his group.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "I am a celestial cultivator while you are a great immortal of the Deste Immortals. Isn''t it humiliating for you to acknowledge that my side is the superior group?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan answered him bluntly, "Whether your group is the superior group, I do not know. But you are able to kill the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian is a fact. And he is stronger than me even though we are at the same cultivation realm. I may be one of the few immortals in the Celestial Realm that can use my immortal profound arts without any fear of being losing my anchor to the Celestial Realm but against you, I am afraid that I am a littlecking. This, I can tell when I first set my sight on you."

    "Oh?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan exined with a heavy sigh, "There is another reason why I want to meet you face to face. It is because then I can be sure if you are really at your end or not."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "What? You''ve thought that I am using some forbidden profound arts or profound pills at the cost of damaging my cultivation core?"

    As soon as Ji Yuan had said that, Ling Feiyue and the other maidens awkwardly asked Ji Yuan to talk about some other more important stuff that were more rted to the peace treaty instead.

    "Ji Yuan, this is not important. Talk about some other stuffs instead!"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was secretly looking at Ji Yuan and there was a slight flush on her countenance when she had heard that Ji Yuan had killed the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian who had made quite a few advances on her.

    She thought with a shock and disbelief look: Really?! He is the one that has killed the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian?

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was uninterested in the war that were ongoing and she did not care to know. That was why she did not know that the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian had been killed by Ji Yuan.

    A day or so earlier, she was startled by the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa when they had told her that she would be sent to be in the harem for the Great Sword Saint Ji Yuan in order to ensure the survival of their immortal race.

    She had naturally protested strongly because she was still a chaste maiden and she had even rejected the likes of the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian and even the Great Immortal Rohan.

    "What makes you think that I will agree to this? Did you forget that I am an immortal and you are sending me to be a harlot of a mere celestial cultivator?"

    The Goddess Alyssa had said to you, "This Ji Yuan has plenty of beautiful maidens by his side and it is difficult for us to find a peerless beauty with your allure. And he will be sure to notice you. If there is any hope of sess with this peace talks then you will y a significant part in reducing his hatred for us."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia hummed coldly, "And so, you are thinking of using me as a bartering chip on the negotiation table? There is no way that I will agree to this. You can all forget about this and can leave now."

    The Goddess Alyssa then took out a memory stone and disyed Ji Yuan''s profound image, "This is his image. What do you think."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was secretly gasping when she saw how beautiful this Ji Yuan was before she shyly said, "I can try to help but this is for the sake of our immortal race and not because of this Ji Yuan. But I must first rify this to all of you. I will not sacrifice my chastity or body to him, is that understood?"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled, "We know your principle and you would rather explode your cultivation core than to submit to anyone. All you need to do is to push our agenda when the timese. And we will ensure that you will be able to escape from this Ji Yuan after we have signed the peace treaty. Will that work for you?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia slowly nodded, "I will need the two of you to sign a soul agreement with me then and swear an oath to the Great Beyond Goddess."

 Chapter 1172 The Divine Salvation Eye

    Chapter 1172 The Divine Salvation Eye

    After the peace treaty was signed and all the terms settled, the Great Immortal Rohan and his continencies were given a pce for them to settle temporary.

    The other ten profound ships had also arrived at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect as well.

    Ji Yuan then walked with the Immortal Fairy Lucia to gather all 299 of the beautiful maidens, including the Immortal Fairy Lucia and said to them, "We are going to fight a big battle with the Great Demon God soon. If you choose to fight with me then you are all considered to be under themand of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue¡­"

    "I don''t care about your previous background. You can be from the unorthodox, from the heretic or from the Evil Cultivation Pce. I don''t care. Many of you are probably unwilling to fight for the Evil Cultivation Pce in the first ce. If anyone wants to go home and return to your cultivation sect, you may go now. Don''t worry, I will not punish you¡­"

    Then he inhaled deeply and asked, "So, is there anyone of you that wants to go?"

    A beautiful maiden stepped forward and asked nervously, "We can¡­ really go home?"

    Ji Yuan noted that this beautiful maiden was exceptional beautiful and he had a heartache when he said firmly, "Yes, you may go. If you need a map, let me know. I get it for you."

    This exceptional beautiful maiden took a look at Ji Yuan before she giggled softly, "I know you. You are the Great Poet Ji Yuan and also the Sword Saint Ji Yuan. You really look beautiful without a beard."

    Many of the beautiful maidens were also giggling softly, "Yes, he is more beautiful without a beard than a beard."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to insult my beard before you leave?

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Well, if you have seen me with my beard, you will know how beautiful I was when I had a beard."

    This exceptional beautiful maiden then said shyly, "My name is Ruan Songci from the Mystic Eye Sect.I had met you before. You are definitely more beautiful without a beard than with a beard."

    Ji Yaun frowned, "I don''t remember seeing you before."

    Ruan Songci giggled softly, "100 years ago, you hade to the branch of the Mystic Eye Guild and had asked for information about the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped immediately; he had suddenly remembered her now. At that time she was not a golden celestial yet so he did not take much notice of her.

    "¡­ and you have asked for¡­"

    Ji Yuan quickly interrupted her, "I remember you now. You can go now."

    Luckily, he was now alone with the 299 beautiful maidens or else if Xue Qianxue and his other maidens had known about his enquiry that day with this Ruan Songci, then it would be too awkward to his face.

    Ruan Songci giggled softly, "I didn''t say that I want to leave. I am asking for the rest. This is a good opportunity for me to gather information for my Mystic Eye Sect. I may even get a promotion in my cultivation sect for providing first hand information about your great battle with the Great Demon God. So, how can I leave just like this?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I need to assassinate her somehow. I can''t allow my maidens to know about my conversation with her. Or I can send her to the frontline to be an extra fodder. Hahaha¡­

    Xiang Li and Anyang were speechless when they had overheard Ji Yuan''s thoughts for this Maiden Ruan Songci.

    Ji Yuan ignored this Ruan Songci and asked the rest of the maidens, "Just step forward if you want to leave. I won''t stop you. Even if you want to rejoin the Great Immortal Rohan''s side, it is alright."

    As he said that, he was secretly looking at the Immortal Fairy Lucia to see if she has moved and he was relieved to see that she did not step forward.

    Slowly, many of the beautiful maidens had stepped forward.

    There were 169 of them that wished to leave.

    Ji Yuan did not ask them for any reasons or imposed any questions to them.

    He merely acknowledged it and allowed them to go.

    Some of the beautiful maidens were polite and left behind their names to him, hoping that he would remember them before they had left.

    Altogether there were 130 of the beautiful maidens that were remaining now.

    Half of the beautiful maidens had a burning hatred for the Evil Cultivation Pce and they wished to do battle with the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan spent some time to talk with the remaining beautiful maidens to know their names, background and motives for staying behind.

    This also included their cultivation realms.

    There were 80 of them including Ruan Songci that were at the 5th cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan then gathered the 80 beautiful maidens and said to them, "Good that you are all staying to fight with me against the Great Demon God. For that, I ought to bless you with a profound treasure that I''ve found inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This will protect all of you in battle."

    When he had said that, all 80 of the beautiful maidens were delighted while the other 50 beautiful maidens were feeling quite sour in their hearts.

    It was because Ji Yuan was only blessing the 80 5th realm cultivation maidens and not the rest.

    Anyang curiously asked Xiang Li: A profound treasure that can bless the others? When did our lord find such a godly profound treasure?

    Xiang Li was also looking perplexed: I don''t know too¡­

    Ji Yuan then delightfully took out the Divine Salvation Eye in front of him, "I shall bless all of you with this profound treasure¡­"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was suddenly gasping with shock, "Isn''t this the Divine Salvation Eye?!"

    Ji Yuan nearly dropped the Divine Salvation Eye when his profound treasure was recognized by the Immortal Fairy Lucia and he was feeling awkward immediately.

    This Divine Salvation Eye could only be used on those that are more than 3 cultivation realms lower and it should work on the 5th realm cultivators.

    And he was thinking of testing the Divine Salvation Eye on these 50 beautiful maidens to see if it works or not.

    He immediately said with great awkwardness, "I just remember that I''ve got something on first."

    With that, he had quickly fled the scene of his umitted crime.

 Chapter 1173 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia

    Chapter 1173 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia

    After Ji Yuan had fled into the safe confines of the hallways, he felt a little relieved as he did not expect for anyone to be able to know the name of his profound treasure the Divine Salvation Eye.

    Just as he was sighing woefully that he had not even used this profound treasure yet, the Immortal Fairy Luca had caught up with him and she had quietly approached him.

    JI Yuan was embarrassed by her earlier and therefore he did not want to see her for the time being.

    But since she had followed him, he asked curiously. "Yes, why are you here?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia quietly said to him, "I''ve already heard that you are a lecherous cultivator but I didn''t expect for you to be so lecherous as to use the Divine Salvation Eye on the others. You must have already used this Divine Salvation Eye on countless number of maidens already."

    "I am actually not a lecherous cultivator," Ji Yuan protested immediately."And also, this is my first time using this profound treasure. I was just curious to see if it works, that''s all."

    He doesn''t believe that she would believe him, so did Anyang and Xiang Li as well.

    Anyang was sheepishly looking at Xiang Li as she said to her: Ji Yuan is famous for not having his maidens believe him.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia sighed softly, "I believe you but I want you to promise me that you won''t do it again."

    Ji Yuan was startled that she had actually believed him?

    So he quickly said after regaining some of his manly pride, "Hahaha, of course I won''t use it again. Will a powerful cultivator like me retort to using the Divine Salvation Eye for any nefarious purposes? I am merely trying to use the Divine Salvation Eye to see if their hearts are pure. This is a secret profound ability of the Divine Salvation Eye. I don''t think you know about this, am I right?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was startled, "I don''t know."

    But she quicklyposed herself to say, "I see now. Thank you for rifying it with me. I must apologize for interrupting you earlier."

    Ji Yuan was also smiling too as he chuckled, "I really got something on and that''s why I am in a hurry. It isn''t your fault."

    He was naturally trying to bullshit his way through this created mess.

    Anyang whispered to Xiang Li: It''s no wonder why our lord''s spiritual sea is so impure.

    But Xiang Li giggled jovially: But it looks so pure to me now.

    Anyang: ¡­

    All of a sudden, the Immortal Fairy Lucia had tenderly caught hold of Ji Yuan''s hand and had pressed it upon her bosoms, "If you want to vent your frustrations, you can look for me. I am willing. Don''t misunderstood me. I mean that you cane to my room to have a chat with me."

    Ji Yuan was startled when the Immortal Fairy Lucia had suddenly ced his hand on her bosoms. At first, he had thought that she had just wanted to hold his hand so he did not resist.

    But since his hand was already on her bosoms, he could not resist to grope her and to squeeze her breasts behind her thin robe.

    This startled the Immortal Fairy Lucia who was flushing shyly.

    Ji Yuan did not misunderstand her; this was a clear signal to him already and he knows that he has a chance of banging her.

    "Ji Yuan! What are you doing?!" It was Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu that had asked and interrupted him coldly.

    Also in theirpany were Ling Feiyue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess.

    The seven of them were walking along the hallway and they were surprised by what they were seeing.

    Ji Yuan was literally caught red-handed by them and he weakly said, "If I tell you that my hand had slipped, will you believe me?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia had a beautiful flush on her alluring face and she was lowering her head with great embarrassment; it was because she was the one that had put Ji Yuan''s hand on her bosoms.

    Shui Xisi said coldly, "I''ve thought that someone is addressing his new recruits but he is actually inspecting his gift in this ce."

    The seven maidens were actually gossiping together.

    One of their topics was Chen Hanhan; some of the maidens like Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan that were not in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was curious to know who she was. Even the Lovely Empress was curious as well.

    Ling Feiyue likes to gossip and she quickly told them that Chen Hanhan was a maiden that had tried to kill Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she was very good in yacting. What she did not know was that Ji Yuan had already seen through her yacting at the very beginning or else her ruses would not have failed in the very first ce.

    None of the maidens had liked Chen Hanhan because they could also tell that she was only pretending to get close to Ji Yuan.

    But Ji Yuan did not drive her away because he wanted to maintain a good image in front of Mu Wan''Er, the maiden that they had left behind in the secret hideout at the Five Heavens Peaks.

    It was Mu Wan''Er that Ji Yuan was truly interested in.

    Ling Feiyue told them that this Chen Hanhan was really thick skin to try to follow Ji Yuan for advantages.

    Because of this, none of the maidens had liked this Chen Hanhan.

    As for Mu Wan''Er, they had a better opinion of her and they could see that Ji Yuan was chasing after her skirt.

    As expected by them, this Chen Hanhan had really betrayed Ji Yuan by joining with the Evil Cultivation Pce at the very first instance whiches to no surprise to them or to Ji Yuan.

    That was also the reason why Ji Yuan had denied knowing Chen Hanhan as he had already given her several chances to repent from her sweet-talking schemes.

    Ling Feiyue smiled wryly, "This Chen Hanhan must have thought that we are all fools to believe in her deceptions."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi sighed softly, "My old master likes to y with fire and he often keep the fire by his side¡­"

    Then she had also told them how Ji Yuan had often settled the quarrels in the cultivation sect all by himself because he was quite a generous person and he could also execute his generosity by his sword alone.

    The main reason why Ji Yuan had such a big sess was that he had never asked for reparations or required the quarreling cultivation sects to make any reparations.

    The reason for many endless wars were because both sides could not agree on any reparations and the winner would impose their desired reparations to weaken or to kill off their opponents for good.

    It was because an unreasonable reparations would only increase hatred between the cultivation sects and it would eventually lead to an even bigger fight due to desperation or some other undesired possibilities.

    The losing side would eventually be moved to extreme measures as they got nothing to lose anymore while the winning side would oppress their own side because they have got too rich from their opponents and are unwilling to share their newfounded wealth.

    Why would they be so generous as to share their newfounded wealth with their own side when they are not generous to their opponents in the first ce?

    A generous spirit would only breed a generous spirit while a mean spirit would only breed a mean spirit. This mean spirit would only increase as ego increases.

    The winning side would eventually be the losing side due to the mean spirit of their leaders.

    That was the main reason why he did not ask the Great Immortal Rohan for any reparations in spirit stones or else the peace treaty would not be concluded so quickly.

    This was a hidden issue that the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had actually feared the most because they needed the spirit stones for many uses, including maintaining the loyalties of their cultivators especially when they had agreed to give up all their temporary holdings and hence, they would also lose their ie from these holdings as well.

    Although their spirit stones were looted by them from the defeated cultivators anyway but Ji Yuan had closed one eye to it.

    That was a reason why Ji Yuan could eventually be a leader in the Five Heaven Peaks and had so many brothers were willing to leave his puny cultivation sect alone.

    Shangguan Yan were also agreeing with Fairy Ye Chengxi that Ji Yuan liked to y with fire and he preferred to keep the troublemakers with him, "That''s why my old master has so many rotten brothers, including Guo Taiming. He doesn''t make a clear distinction between who is trustworthy or not, good or bad as long as they can drink with him."

    That was also one of the reasons why Ji Yuan was able to call even Shen Qin and the Great Immortal Rohan as his ''brothers'' even though they may not exactly be the best brothers around.

    Shui Xisi had sighed, "Why does he need so many untrustworthy brothers for?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi had replied awkwardly, "So that he could borrow spirit stones from them at ater date."

    All the other maidens except for Shangguan Yan were dumbfounded.

    Shui Xisi giggled a reply, "Well, I''m rich. I don''t mind lending him some spirit stones for his drinks. Hehe."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi managed a weak smile to warn her, "My old master never repays back the spirit stones that he has owed to his brothers."

    The Lovely Empress could not resist cutting in with a chuckle, "Ji Yuan owes me 500 million spirit stones. Buttely, it has be 1000 million spirit stones."

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Shui Xisi were too awkward to ask if that was because it was due to the number of times that Ji Yuan banged her that caused the amount of spirit stones that was owed to skyrocket.

    As the 7 maidens walked together to gossip together, they had suddenly chanced upon Ji Yuan groping the soft and delicate beasts of the Immortal Fairy Luca in front of them.

    And this caused to Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress to interrupt Ji Yuan furiously.

    Ji Yuan muttered awkwardly as he continued to protest, "It isn''t exactly what you have seen. You have all misunderstood¡­"

 Chapter 1174 Great Immortal Rohans Real Plan

    Chapter 1174 Great Immortal Rohan''s Real n

    Ji Yuan tried very hard to protest for his innocent as he was being dragged away by his 7 maidens for an exnation.

    Ling Feiyue said to him, "Whether you are innocent or not, we will knowter when you''ve summoned Xiang Li."

    Ji Yuan protested aloud as he was being kicked by Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress, "Erm, both Xiang Li and Anyang are both in a deep slumber. It isn''t too nice to disturb them. As you know, my two divine swords are damaged and this also affects them¡­"

    Shui Xisi said coldly, "I saw them in your soul sea just a few days ago."

    Ji Yuan protested aloud, "That is only because you are too beautiful that they are awakened by you¡­"

    "Then I can enter your impure and dirty soul sea again," Shui Xisi said.

    "Hahaha¡­ I am at a crucial cultivation now. It isn''t too nice for you to enter into my soul sea for now¡­"

    Little Princess smiled enchantingly, "We saw you moving your hands on her bosoms. What is there to exin about?"

    "I''ve tripped over a pebble, you know."

    "And where is that pebble now?"

    "It got kicked faraway¡­"

    "Ji Yuan!!!"

    And soon, Ji Yuan was being pulled away from the hallway amidst his protests.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia could only watch the scene with some disbelief; she could not believe that a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator would actually fear a couple of peaked 7th realm saintesses even if they may be his consorts.

    At least, this is not the way of her immortal race where the strong dictates the weak and she wouldn''t be in this state.

    She stood there for some time because she could still feel the numbing sensation on her breasts where Ji Yuan had purposely groped her on purpose earlier.

    All of a sudden, the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had appeared along the hallway as they approached her with smiles on them.

    The Goddess Alyssa immediately whispered to her, "Good job. We have now concluded the peace treaty. It is all thanks to you that we are able to keep the reparations at the minimum."

    The Great Immortal Rohan was also smiling with great delight as he looked at the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Indeed, indeed. As expected, that Ji Yuan had noticed you almost immediately. You are indeed the heavenly fairy among our immortal race."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia said quietly, "I didn''t do much actually."

    The Goddess Alyssa shook her head, "This you are wrong. It may seem that you didn''t do anything much but every step of the peace treaty is fraughted with dangers. And we didn''t know how the cultivators in Ji Yuan''s camp would react to this, especially the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Little Princess¡­"

    Speaking of the Little Princess, the Goddess Alyssa felt a little heartache.

    Deep in her heart, she had tried her best to protect her and she had only pretended to be a vicious mother consort to ensure her safety or else why did she have to ingratitude herself with the Evil Cultivation God?

    It was just so that she would watch over her in secret.

    Even her attempts on capturing Little Princess were all half-hearted attempts.

    During the peace talks earlier today, the two of them had purposely avoided looking at each other even though both could feel the other in the meeting hall.

    The Great Immortal Rohan sighed, "To be honest, we are a little worried that this Ji Yuan would make things very hard for us or even find an opportunity to humiliate us or to throw his temper at the deaths that are on his side. I don''t mind giving up our holdings anyway since it will be lost eventually anyway if the Great Demon Godes. I am just surprised that he has allowed us to keep the profound treasures that we have looted. Or maybe he has forgotten to mention it?"

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled, "I''ve thought that he wanted to have half of the profound treasures. For that we have prepared dozens of our most valuable profound treasures for him to view as well as thousands of profound pills to be given to him¡­"

    "But he has simply said that since we are allies, we ought to fight as an ally when the Great Demon Godes," The Great Immortal Rohan was sighing heavily.

    And then he had added, "Unfortunately for this new Brother Ji Yuan of mine, we are not going to fight against the Great Demon God. It is because we are not his match. When the timees, we will run away instead."

    The Goddess Alyssa nodded slowly, "That is our real n anyway."

    With that both the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were both nodding quietly at each other.

    The peace treaty was just a facade in order to buy them enough time to find a new hideout in the other celestial fraternities and for them to flee as far away as possible.

    It was not to say that they were not leaving any forces behind to fight against the Great Demon God but they were only saving their own immortal race.

    Only their very own immortal race would be quietly leaving the battle as they were few in numbers and they were unsure if they would be able to defeat the Great Demon God when things go south. This of course would include their harems and loyal servants as well.

    Naturally, they were not going to give the Great Demon God an easy time either as they intended to use the celestial cultivators and the eastern region to be a target for the vendetta of the Great Demon God once the battle was lost.

    All these nnings were just to ensure that the Deste Immortals would have enough time to flee in secret.

    The Goddess Alyssa had also nned to take Little Princess away because her fate would be woeful if she was captured by the Great Demon God.

    And for that, they were biding their time.

    The Great Immortal Rohan shook his head, "The celestial cultivators really have no idea how powerful a true god really is. There are multiple tiers to the 9th realm cultivation and in front of the Great Demon God, I can only die. If only, our Great God Xuan Yuan will fight on our side¡­"

    The Goddess Alyssa interrupted him with a wry smile as she turned to look at the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "As promised, we will send you away now. Thank you for your aid this time."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia said quietly, "I am not leaving yet."

    The Goddess Alyssa, the Great Immortal Rohan: ???

    "You are not leaving?" Both the Goddess Alyssa and the Great Immortal Rohan expressed a look of surprise.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia quietly nodded with a flustered look, "That''s right. I have decided to stay behind to be a mole instead. Maybe this may help our immortal race better in this way. This Ji Yuan has a true divinity sword and he may have other profound treasures. Maybe he has some heaven-defying secrets that we do not know and this may be useful to us."

    With that, she had walked away in a flustered manner while thinking about the beautiful face of Ji Yuan.

    She did not even give the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa a chance to express their opinions about this new n of hers.

    The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were both looking a little stunned because they hade to take the Immortal Fairy Lucia away.

    This was actually what had been agreed upon by their shared soul agreement.

    The Goddess Alyssa was left muttering weakly, "At least, she ought to sign a new soul agreement with us to void our existing soul agreement. If she didn''t escape from this ce then we will surely suffer a bacsh. Then we can forget about even leaving this ce alive."

    Slowly, the Great Immortal Rohan said. "Well, this is better this way. Aren''t we worried that Ji Yuan may find it a little suspicious when he has discovered that the Immortal Fairy Lucia is missingter? And we have a lot to exining to do too. Although this may not affect our n much but we don''t want Ji Yuan to be on guard against us. Then you won''t have the chance to take Little Princess away too."

    The Goddess Alyssa frowned before she said quietly, "I don''t think the Immortal Fairy Lucia is nning to be our mole. Rather, I feel that she can''t resist this Ji Yuan''s beautiful charms."

    The Great Immortal Rohan frowned, "I don''t think so. He is just another pretty face. I am more handsome than him actually."

    The Goddess Alyssa: ¡­

    All these men are so sure of themselves that they can''t see who is really the more handsome man.

 Chapter 1175 The Flower of Blissful Lust

    Chapter 1175 The Flower of Blissful Lust

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    In the throne of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God was in his throne room when Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily had walked quietly into his presence.

    He was ying with his chess pieces and stroking his long white beard when she had walked in.

    "You wish to see me?" Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

    The Great Demon Godughed softly, "I''vee to inform you that we will be leaving at the first break of dawn for the Pentecost Mountains where the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect is. That will be some 12 hours from now."

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "Are we departing in the Evil Cultivation Pce or the Great Deste Divine Pce? Or both?"

    The Great Demon Godughed mysteriously, "We will depart with both."

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked, "We have enough spirit stones to power the Great Deste Divine Pce? And what happened the restrictive profound arrays of the Great Deste Divine Pce?"

    The Great Demon God smirked, "Since the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, I''ve alreadypleted the profound seal to ward off the immortals from the Nine Heavens. This Celestial Realm now belongs to me. All I need next is the profound power of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to make this Celestial Realm into my Deste Celestial Realm. For that, I need to look for the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth which is hidden in the Celestial Realm."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had slowly nodded.

    When the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth failed to return to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, it also lost its ability to protect itself from the profound might of the Great Demon God.

    That was the reason why the Great Demon God had spent such a long time to analyze the weakness of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth so that he could obtain this beyond divinity profound treasure for himself.

    At this moment, the Great Demon God had not discovered the whereabouts of the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth yet.

    But given his formidable cultivation, it was only a matter of time before the whereabouts of the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth would be discovered.

    This was something that had also perplexed the Great Demon God.

    By right, he would have already known where the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was but it just vanished from his radar.

    He asked himself: Did someone absorb the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth already? Ordinary celestial cultivators do not have the cultivation strength to absorb it. Don''t tell me that the Death God Mingwang already has it?

    At this moment, he had a strong suspicion for the Death God Mingwang as he was still missing.

    By now, word should have already reached the Death God Mingwang that he still lives and he had been waiting for the Death God Mingwang to turn up.

    But it seemed that the Death God Mingwang seemed to have another n on his own.

    The three true gods of the Deste Immortal Realm had made a pact to share the Celestial Realm and they counted one another as equal.

    However, the Great Demon God actually intended for himself to be the master of this Celestial Realm and to be a true divinity god with the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Then he would embark on his new conquest to take over the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm for himself.

    But for now, he had another grand n on his mind.

    And that was Ding Xiaoxiao.

    The Great Demon God smiled warmly to Ding Xiaoxiao, "That''s why and I wish to reward you for your help in helping me to recapture the Great Deste Divine Pce."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao frowned, "I don''t remember doing a thing. It is you that have killed all the cultivators here and I didn''t even lift a finger."

    The Great Demon God had suddenly waved his hand and a golden goblet had suddenly in front of Ding Xiaoxiao.

    There was a golden liquid inside this golden goblet and the deste energies from this golden liquid was extremely dense.

    The Great Demon God smiled wryly, "This 100 000 year old dharmic spirit heart nt will be able to increase your cultivation attainment. Consider this to be my reward for you. Maybe you can even regain your 9th realm cultivation before the start of our battle with the Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded as she took the golden goblet, "This is indeed a good stuff."

    The Great Demon God smiled when he saw that that Ding Xiaoxiao had taken the golden goblet and today he would make Ding Xiaoxiao into his maiden.

    And he was looking with great interest at her revealing curves and was thinking already how he was going to make her submit to himter; it was because this golden liquid contained the Flower of Blissful Lust in it.

    Therefore if Ding Xiaoxiao drinks from it, she would be a wanton maiden that would greatly desire for the Great Demon God to take her as his maiden.

    "Go on and drink it. Then you can assist me better."

    All of a sudden, Ding Xiaoxiao had poured the golden liquid onto the ground.

    The Great Demon God was enraged, "Number 1! What are you doing?! Are you wasting my good intentions for you?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly, "My practice is the Emotionless Heart of the Sword Dao. The profound animus of this thing in here disturbs my dao heart. You have disguised a powerful aphrodisiac in this golden liquid. It may be odourless and colourless but it cannot be hidden from my Emotionless Heart of the Sword Dao¡­"

    Then she looked at the Great Demon God as she said coldly, "Great Demon God, you have disappointed me. I didn''t think that a great god will actually retort to this, especially from you."

    The Great Demon God said with great displeasure, "Ding Xiaoxiao! So what if you have seen through my trick? Do you think that you will be able to leave my throne room tonight?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly disyed her profound aura to the peak of the 9th realm as she raised her head to stare coldly at the Great Demon God, "You can try me."

    The Great Demon God was startled, "You have already regained to your peak?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said nonchntly, "When I have released the profound seal that is on my true divinity sword, I''ve also regained the cultivation attainment that I have used to seal my sword."

    She had actually regained her peak cultivation after she had killed the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo with Ji Yuan.

    It had happened when she had copted with Ji Yuan.

    This startled her as well as her practice was the Emotionless Heart of the Sword Dao. So how could she have regained her cultivation attainment after being with Ji Yuan?

    Then she had remembered how they had created two perfectbined profound sword arts together.

    Something in her had awakened and she had also be stronger.

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned away to walk away slowly while leaving the Great Demon God to burn with great rage.

    The Great Demon God could only allow her to leave because a Ding Xiaoxiao that was in her peak was not an ordinary immortal cultivator.

    Even though he had considered himself to be a far stronger immortal but he did not want to pay a price for getting ugly with her.

    Moreover, Ding Xiaoxiao still had to do 1 more thing for him.

    The Great Demon God was cursing Number 3 instead; it was because all his years of goodwill that he had done to have Ding Xiaoxiao by his side had just gone down the drain.

    "Ding Xiaoxiao, when I have be a true divinity, I will then make sure that you submit to me. Whether you like it or not, I am going to take your body."

 Chapter 1176 An Old Friend Appears

    <h4>Chapter 1176 An Old Friend Appears</h4>

    Just as Ji Yuan was protesting loudly to his maidens that he was innocent of their usations, a 4th realm cultivator had suddenly approached them with an urgent message for Xue Qianxue and Ji Yuan.

    He had been looking everywhere for them.

    "Sacred Maiden Xue, Sword Saint Ji Yuan. There is a freed prisoner that insists on seeing you and he says that he knows you."

    Ji Yuan took the opportunity to say, "Oh really? Take me to him. Maybe I really know him. Hahaha¡­"

    "Wait a minute first," Xue Qianxue interrupted Ji Yuan.

    Then she turned to ask the messenger, "What is his name?"

    The messenger answered, "He says that he is Guo Taiming and he says that he is erm¡­ the best friend of the Sword Saint Ji Yuan."

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were both gasping as they do know this Guo Taiming as they were all from the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I do know him. Come, let me go and meet him straightaway!"

    "Wait a minute first," Xue Qianxue winked at him before she turned to say to the messenger. "Bring this Guo Taiming here."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had thought that Guo Taiming''s arrival would save him for the incessant questionings and he was using this opportunity to make his quick exit.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Trust me, you don''t want to meet this best friend of mine. So, it is better that I met him alone."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded awkwardly, "That''s true."

    Even Shangguan Yan was nodding too.

    However, Xue Qianxue ignored the two of them and she had surrounded Ji Yuan along with Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    "Ji Yuan, are you having an affair with that Immortal Fairy Lucia?"

    "Why are you touching her bosoms?"

    "You like her?"

    "Why is she alone with you in that hallway?"

    "Aren''t you addressing the rest of the 299 maidens but you have singled only her?"

    "Is she prettier or we are prettier?"

    Ji Yuan asked Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress instead, "The 2 of you are not my consorts, right? Why are you asking me questions as well?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "I am not your consort but I am checking on you on behalf of my Sister Feifei as well as my other good sisters here."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was also saying shamelessly, "I am checking on you for my Prot¨¦g¨¦ Mistress Yun Chi and for my good sisters as well. I am afraid that you may hurt my Sister Zhi Jiugong and Sister Chu Lixue too."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He turned to say to the 7 maidens, "Seriously, the 7 of you thinks too much. I am a Gentleman of the Sword. Do you even think that I am such a man as to have an affair with my so called prisoners of war?"

    "You banged the abyssal maidens," Shui Xisi pointed out with a soft chuckle.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    All of a sudden, a fat man was waving and shouting toward them, "Ji Yuan! It is me! Your best friend Guo Taiming!"

    It was indeed Guo Taiming and he was being apanied by the same messenger.

    Guo Taiming was delighted when he saw that there were 7 extremely beautiful maidens that were in front of him and he had even recognized 2 of them.

    "It is Fairy Ye Chengxi and Maiden Shangguan Yan! Hahaha, I miss seeing the two of you. I am back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth now and have be far stronger than before!"

    "And you were captured by the Evil Cultivation Pce?" Ji Yuan could not resist adding for Guo Taiming.

    Guo Taiming sighed heavily, "You may not know this but I had fought against the evil cultivators for 3 days and 3 nights¡­"

    "The battle ends after 6 hours," Ji Yuan pointed out. "You mean that you battled with the evil cultivators in your prisoner''s cell?"

    Guo Taiming: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "That isn''t the point. The point is that I refused to yield to them and that is why I am their prisoner! Do you know that they even try to torture me with the beautiful maidens of the Evil Cultivation Pce but they did not seed?"

    "The maidens at the Evil Cultivation Pce have high criteria for their dual cultivation targets. They won''t choose you for sure." Little Princess casually said.

    Guo Taiming: ¡­

    Indeed.

    The maidens of the Evil Cultivation Pce did not even pick him as their dual cultivation targets and he was left alone in his cell, leaving him toment why these beautiful celestial maidens did not choose him.

    He wanted to be a hero that was ''tortured'' by the Evil Cultivation Pce but he was ignored instead.

    Guo Taiming looked at the mesmerizing and enchanting maiden in front of him, "This beautiful maiden here, what is your name and cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "She is a peak great saintess and she is Little Princess. And she is also my consort."

    "What?!" Guo Taiming was shocked beyond words, "She is¡­ Little Princess?! Isn''t she from the Evil Cultivation Pce too?"

    Ji Yuan patted him, "Brother, your news are out-of-date but I don''t me you since not many people know about this. Indeed, she is Little Princess but she has already left the Evil Cultivation Pce and she is fighting on our side."

    Then he pointed at the rest of his maidens to introduce them to the disinterested maidens, "They are the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue, Matriarch Pce Mistress Shui Xisi of the Water Melody Pce and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    Guo Taiming gulped with his dry throat, "The 3 great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all here. But they are all equally so beautiful. Even the Matriarch Pce Mistress is also here¡­ Brother Ji Yuan, how do you know them? Care to introduce them to me?"

    As he said so, he was looking at the Lovely Empress with interest.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "They are all great saintesses so you can forget about it. As for this Matriarch Pce Mistress and the Lovely Empress here, approach them at your own risk. They don''t like men at all."

    Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu: ¡­

    Then Ji Yuan had dragged Guo Taiming away as he warned him sternly, "If you dare to have any funny ideas on them, I shall ughter you immediately. Is that understood?"

    "Why, Brother Ji Yuan?"

    "Because they are all my maidens."

    "But I thought you say that the two of them are not interested in any men? Don''t tell me that you have disguised as a maiden with that beautiful face of yours?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do I have to meet you in this ce? I feel like killing you. Do you know that we are having a great battle in this ce very soon?"

    "Don''t worry, Brother Ji Yuan. I still remember that you have jumped realms to fight all the cultivators at the Five Heavens Peak when you are merely a second realm cultivator."

    Ji Yuan growled angrily, "Don''t mention that time! I feel like killing you whenever you have mentioned that time."

    At that time, Ji Yuan had challenged numerous 2nd to 4th realm cultivators in the Five Heavens Peak''s martial tournament.

    He was unable to speak at that time because Guo Taiming had mixed a weird drink for him that caused him to lose his voice.

    And Guo Taiming had spoken in his instead as he said to all the cultivators presented, "My Brother Ji Yuan says that you are all no match for him. One to one is too slow. Why don''t all of youe and fight him together?"

    If it was not for the godly reward of 100 spirit stones, Ji Yuan would have jumped off the fighting stage immediately.

    He got screwed up badly by Guo Taiming very badly at that time and he had earned numerous hatreds for defeating the many young masters and core prot¨¦g¨¦s of the various cultivation sects in the Five Heavens Peak.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to Guo Taiming, "I don''t know why you always got such a long life even when you got captured by your enemies. Even the Evil Cultivation Pce ignores you when you are captured. All your friends except for me, are all dead now."

    Guo Taimingughed jovially, "That how I have be the sect leader of my cultivation sect. Because all the potential sessors had all met with an ident."

    Then he asked, "Where are we going now, Brother Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am going to kick you down the mountains of course."

    Guo Taiming: ...

 Chapter 1177 Ji Yuanâ€™s Real Plan

    <h4>Chapter 1177 Ji Yuan''s Real n</h4>

    Ji Yuan did not exactly kicked Guo Taiming down the mountains but he had invited him to drink with him.

    This disgusted most of his maidens as they felt that he should be cultivating or spent his time with them instead.

    But Ji Yuan did not mind their naggings at all as he continued to drink with Guo Taiming.

    When Guo Taiming was too drunk to drink with him, a drunken Ji Yuan had suddenly awakened and he had purged out the alcohol from his body.

    He shook his head sadly that he had wasted the good wines but there was something that he had to do first.

    With that he had sneaked out of the room quietly.

    But to his surprise, he had bumped into Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    "What are the two of you waiting here? I will be drinking the whole night so you can both leave first."

    All of a sudden, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had both hugged him endearingly.

    This startled Ji Yuan as he muttered, "Alright. I know that the two of you miss me but I stink of alcohol now. So, you ought to let me go until I have a shower. Hahaha¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said woefully as she continued to hug him tightly, "Others may not know what your intention is but the two of us know¡­"

    "You are nning to go off alone, am I right?" Shangguan Yan said mncholy.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course not! Who told you so? I won''t run away. Hahaha..."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said slowly, "You''re not running away. You are just going to confront the Great Demon God all by yourself."

    "Of course not!" Ji Yuan weakly said.

    Shangguan Yan said tenderly to Ji Yuan, "My lord. You are our old master for such a long time. Whenever bad thingse, you will always go off to settle it all by yourself. This time round, it is also not an exception. We''ve been with you long enough to know what you are nning to do."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said quietly, "My lord, we didn''te to stop you but to see you away."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Oh?"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi sighed softly, "We know that you won''t listen anyway and will go off on your own. We just want to say good luck to you."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he grabbed the two maidens tightly, "My Chengxi and Yan''Er. Sorry. Your old master wants to fight this battle alone. When the Great Demon Godes, the battle will be fierce and there will be few survivors. But if I go alone, I may have the chance to take down the Great Demon God on my own."

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said quietly as she sobbed in his embrace, "Are you thinking of duelling with the Great Demon God? He won''t ept it and moreover, we have heard from Maiden Yun Chi that you don''t have a chance."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly, "Well, Yun Chi is wrong. She didn''t know my trump card. Hahaha¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said tearfully, "She said that you are just a sword cultivator that is weak in all other cultivations and you''ll be killed by Number 1 even before you have a chance of fighting with the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly, "This isn''t true at all. My sword is better than Number 1. Also, she isn''t as formidable as what Yun Chi had said. Hahaha¡­"

    Well, my sword may not be better than her but my little brother is stronger than her little sister¡­

    Shangguan Yan was also saying tearfully to him, "My lord, we didn''te to stop you so there is no need for you to exin to us. Juste back to us alive. It is alright to ept defeat and run away. It is nothing shameful, even for a sword saint."

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily as he hugged the two maidens tightly.

    Just like that, he had embraced them for some time.

    But eventually they had to part.

    And Ji Yuan had to leave them finally.

    He shed out of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect to avoid disying his profound animus lest he would be detected by Yun Chi or Shui Xisi.

    When he had estimated that he was far enough, he began to disy his profound aura as he flew into the air.

    After he had assimted the Golden Natal Divine Pearl into his inner spiritual sea, his profound aura was strong enough for a true flight as he sped across the heavens.

    In the past several days, he had banged all his maidens.

    Maybe with some luck, some of the maidens may escape from thising cmity and carry his seeds.

    But then, it was also unlikely for them to be pregnant as high level celestials rarely have any children.

    This was actually the naturalws of the heavens.

    If the high level celestials are as fertile as the low level cultivators then the whole Celestial Realm would soon be popted by the descendants of the high level celestials.

    90% of the high level celestials won''t have any children at all. And those that did are those that have children early or they have a dao cultivation partner that is of much lower cultivation realm.

    That was also the reason why many of the scions of the cultivation leaders often have a big harem so that they may have a bloodline after them.

    He muttered, "Well, Ji Hao. From now onward, my Emperor Hall Sect will be in your hands. I hope that the Great Demon God won''t take you as a ve or something. Or even kill you to exterminate my blood line¡­"

    Then he sighed, "But then, the fates of the conquered will always be woeful. That is why I must fight this battle alone¡­"

    Another thing that had steeled his heart was because Yun Chi had told him that there was a formidable Asura Cannon that could kill even a 9th realm cultivator and it was equaled to an extreme 9th realm miracle profound art of a peaked 9th realm immortal.

    No matter what, it was not advisable to tank the profound attack of the Asura Cannon.

    The only constion is that the Asura Cannon can only be fired once every 2 hours and it will cost a lot of profound energies.

    If the Great Demon God uses the Asura Cannon then the whole Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and all the thousands of cultivators would then all be wiped out.

    His only regret in the past few days was that he had failed to use the Divine Salvation Eye to try to satisfied his curiousity.

 Chapter 1178 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1178 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (1)</h4>

    Ji Yuan flew for 18 hours before he encountered a dark speck in the heavens.

    He had naturally recognized this dark speck as the Evil Cultivation Pce of course; his eyesight had always been very good.

    Apanying it were some 50 profound ships and many more were docked at the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Immediately he had increased his speed toward it until it had be visible into a big looming dark shape.

    From there, he echoed his profound voice across the vast distances of the heavens. "I am the Sword Saint Ji Yuan and I want to see the Great Demon God!"

    Almost immediately, two beautiful maidens had manifested their projections in front of Ji Yuan but he didn''t recognize them. One was dressed in green while the other was dressed in red.

    Both of them had pointed ears and crimson eyes so Ji Yuan could see that they were not celestial maidens but the same deste race as Number 1.

    The beautiful maiden in green smirked, "So you are that Sword Saint Ji Yuan that the Great Demon God wants us to get rid of. A mere 9th realm half-immortal that wants to challenge true immortals like us. I am Number 3. That is all you need to know and the one next to me is Number 5. I am afraid that you won''t be able to meet the Great Demon God before you die because he is not here!"

    She was indeed Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer and the other maiden was Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Then what about Number 1?"

    Number 5 stepped forward to say aloud in the projection, "Are you looking down on us by requesting to see Number 1? Well, you are out of luck as well because she is with the Great Demon God now in the Great Deste Divine Pce now and the two of them are probably rolling in the bed chamber together. Hahahaha¡­"

    "What?!!!!" Ji Yuan was shocked.

    Number 1 is rolling in bed with the Great Demon God?!!!

    He has been green by the Great Demon God?!

    A wave of rage enveloped him and he was trembling; it was because he had liked Number 1 and he had treated her like one of his maidens even though she was on his opposing side.

    Even Anyang and Xiang Li were looking afraid because they could feel Ji Yuan''s seething rage.

    Number 3 said coldly, "Good. Since you are here to die then don''t me us for your death. A mere 9th realm half-immortal doesn''t need the two of us to handle you personally. Kill this Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan recovered from his seething rage in a nick of time to interrupt her, "Wait a minute! I didn''te here to fight with you but to join you!"

    Number 3 rolled withughter as her slender body fray, "You want to join us? Are you joking with us? When you see our might, you are starting to be panicky and so you want to surrender to us?"

    Even Number 5 was smiling coldly and she added, "Why don''t you join us when you are dead instead?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Hmph! The two of you are courting your own death!"

    Number 3ughed jovially, "You are only one and we are many as well as powerful. We will be courting our own death? The one that is courting your own death is you! Enough talks already¡­"

    "The two of you are on open defiance of the Great Demon God and therefore you are both traitors. The one courting your own death is yourself for not respecting your master the Great Demon God." Ji Yuan interrupted coldly.

    Number 3 frowned, "What do you mean? We are the Great Demon God''s most loyal subjects."

    Ji Yuan smirked coldly, "I don''t think so. Didn''t the Great Demon God said that I can be the new master of the Evil Cultivation Pce if I were to join him. So I am here now but the two of you want to kill you. Or you are both afraid that I will be your master instead when I join?"

    "Rubbish!" Number 3 said coldly, "We are the Great Demon God''s personal aides and honor guards. Therefore, we are not part of the Evil Cultivation Pce. Therefore, even if you have be the new master of the Evil Cultivation Pce, you have no right tomand us!"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Is that so? Then why are you in my Evil Cultivation Pce and preventing me from surrendering? You can''t deny the fact that you are defying the Great Demon God directly. Or is this also themand of the Great Demon God? If not, you may have silenced me but what about the thousands of cultivators that are with you? You have to kill all of them in order to keep your disobedience to the Great Demon God a secret."

    When Ji Yuan had said this, both Number 3 and Number 5 had both turned pale.

    Number 3 hesitated for a moment before she softened her tone, "You are really here to surrender to the Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "If I am not here to surrender to the Great Demon God, will I be nuts to request an audience with him?"

    Number 3 asked him, "Why would you want to surrender to the Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan said casually, "Why shouldn''t I? The Great Demon God is the most powerful being in the entire Celestial Realm now. It is natural that I will be cowered by his might. Also, I quite like the terms that is being offered by the Great Demon God to me. Didn''t he say that I can be ruler of the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Then I can have all the celestial maidens in the Deste Celestial Fraternity as my consorts and concubines. If you are with me, won''t you consider this great offer? Moreover, I also got a chance to save all my cultivators at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect."

    Then he sighed heavily, "But it is a pity, the two of you are preventing me from surrendering and wants to kill me instead. I am afraid from now onward, no one is going to trust the Great Demon God anymore. Go on, give themands to kill me¡­"

    "Wait!" Number 3 had panicky said to Ji Yuan, "We can talk over this first."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Is that so? I am always happy to talk things peacefully."

 Chapter 1179 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1179 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (2)</h4>

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer had suddenly thought of something and she began to ask coldly, "Wait a minute! You have said that you havee to surrender. So where is Xue Qianxue and Little Princess? Why aren''t they with you?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Naturally I will bring them to the Great Demon God after I have seen him¡­"

    "Rubbish!" Number 3 shouted angrily as she interrupted him. "Attack him immediately!"

    At hermand, the 50 profound ships and the Evil Cultivation Pce began to fire their profound cannons at Ji Yuan.

    In a short time, the heavens were exploding with hundreds of profound beams and explosions.

    JI Yuan immediately disyed his true divinity sword and flew at a startling speed toward the Evil Cultivation Pce while avoiding all the hundreds of profonde energies that were aiming at him.

    Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire was astonished that Ji Yuan really had a true divinity sword, "So the rumor is true. He did have a true divinity sword and it isn''t a half-step true divinity sword."

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan smiled as she asked her, "It is just a matter of fact before he is killed by our profound ships'' cannons. I am not interested in his true divinity sword so you can have it. Just a curious question. Are you able to tell what grade is his true divinity sword?"

    Number 5 Yao Hong smiled, "Of course I will be able to. My fire profound arts are closely rted to weapon forging and weapon appraisals of all kinds. Even for a half-step divinity sword, it is still divided into the usual grades of the mortal, mystic, earth, heaven steps. Also, it is further divided into low grade, medium grade, high and superior grade. The true divinity sword that is in his hand should be a low grade mortal-step true divinity sword."

    To prove her assumptions, she began to focus her immortal divine sense into the true divinity sword that Ji Yuan was holding.

    All of a sudden, a spirit manifestation of a little girl had suddenly appeared and had whacked her away.

    This caused Number 5 Yao Hong to suddenly coughed out blood and she was flung back from where she was standing.

    This startled Number 3 Mei Yinxuan as she gasped, "What has happened?!"

    Number 5 Yao Hong gasped with shock, "His true divinity sword is a sentient true divinity sword. How is it possible? Also, the true divinity sword that is in his hand is a¡­ super grade heaven-step true divinity sword."

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was also stunned, "What? The highest grade true divinity sword?! How is it possible? The number of high grade heaven-step true divinity swords are extremely few and no more than 10 exists in the entire Six Realms."

    Number 5 Yao Hong continued to cough weakly, "It may even be a half-step beyond divinity sword that is disguising itself as true divinity sword."

    "Beyond divinity sword?! Do you know what you are saying? If we can have his sword then we can even hope to be a half-god and stepped into the half-step true divinity like our Great Demon God." Number 3 Mei Yinxuan gasped.

    Then she sighed softly, "And to think that I will be surrendering his sword to you. Damn it."

    Number 5 Yao Hong had suddenly pointed to the projected imagery of Ji Yuan who was flying all over the heavens as she said bitterly, "I don''t think our profound cannons can even hit him."

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was now also starting at the project imagery to view Ji Yuan and he was evading the thousands of profound beams and explosions expertly.

    "What the heck?! How did he manage to evade all the profound attacks of all our profound ships?"

    Just one hit from any of their profound cannons was enough to badly injure Ji Yuan and burnt his profound aura.

    It may not be able to kill a 9th realm half-immortal like Ji Yuan but it would be enough to slow him down to allow more profound cannons to hit him and to kill him off.

    The problem is, they had to hit him first but this Ji Yuan was evading too expertly as though he had already known the path of the profound cannons before it was fired.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan had a sudden realization, "He is a sword energy cultivator. I didn''t realize that his energy cultivation is so formidable that he is able to sense the trajectory of our profound cannons."

    Number 3 Yao Hong had also suddenly realized the same, "He is also to sense the profound energies that we are firing against him. It is no wonder why we can''t hit him."

    This was the truth.

    Ji Yuan had indeed sensed the profound energies that were shing toward him. In fact, he was even aware of the profound energies that were charging by the profound cannons even before it was fired against him.

    To him, this was nothing more than like a simply trial when he was with Ling Feiyue for their first trial together.

    In one particr trial with Ling Feiyue, they had to anticipate the profound attacks that would sudden materialize all over them in order to make it to safety across the trial.

    In no time, Ji Yuan was flying over the massive Evil Cultivation Pce that was like a gigantic citadel and the 50 profound ships that were attacking him were not even 1/100 the size of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    By now, the firing speed of the attacking profound ships had also decreased; it was because they were afraid of hitting the Evil Cultivation Pce and its profound shield.

    He tried to enter the Evil Cultivation Pce but the profound shield around the Evil Cultivation Pce had knocked him back.

    Ji Yuan frowned for a moment before he mustered his sword domain to summon thousands of profound swords to make a fierce profound attack on the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Sword domain may be powerful but it will also consume the cultivator''s sword aura and willpower, resulting in them bing weaker.

    However, Ji Yuan had no choice but to use his million field sword domain as heunched thousands of his profound sword energies into the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    However, all his profound swords were dissipated by the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The reason why Ji Yuan was scattering his profound swords all over the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce was because he was trying to find a weak point to get in or to damage the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    It was because thest time that he had used his Dividing One Sword against the Evil Cultivation Pce, he had failed to make any damages.

    But all of a sudden, he saw a weak part in the Evil Cultivation Pce''s profound shield and it was the exact same spot where he had struck previously.

    Ji Yuan immediately flew to a better position while evading the dozens of profound attacks that were aimed at him by the profound ships all around him.

    Then he had summoned his spirit animus the Deste Cherubim with a powerful profound shockwave that caused many of the profound ships to shift from their positions.

    Ji Yuan shouted mightily as he raised his ck sword to disy his Dividing One sword, "One Sword of the Great Void that divides the Heavens and the Earth. This is the Dividing Sword of the Great Void. The Dividing One Sword that destroys all cultivation concepts, returning everything to the Great Void!"

    A ck beam of profound energies enveloped him and quickly descended like a gigantic ck spear that rushed through the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce, puncturing it and even ran through the thousands of tons of celestium stones of its many pces.

    This profound attack was so powerful that it immediately copsed the defensive profound arrays of the Evil Cultivation Pce and the massive size of the Evil Cultivation Pce was now crashing in a slow descend from the sky!

    This shocked all the evil cultivators that were on board the 50 profound ships.

    As for the evil cultivators that were in the Evil Cultivation Pce, there were mass panics everywhere; it was because if the Evil Cultivation Pce was to crash then all of them would die from the millions of tonnes of wreckage.

    Many of the evil cultivators were trying to run to the nearby profound ships that were docking and some of them were even trying to flee away in their flying mounts.

    Number 3 and Number 5 were both in shock.

    They just could not believe that a mere half-immortal cultivator would be strong enough to down the Evil Cultivation Pce with a single hit.

    "How the heck did he bypass the profound shield?!"

    They naturally did not know that Ji Yuan had found a vulnerable point in the profound shield of the Evil Cultivation Pce for him to make his profound attack.

 Chapter 1180 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (3)

    Chapter 1180 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 and 5 (3)

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer and Number 5 Yao Hong the Raging Fire were furious when they hastily flew out of the Evil Cultivation Pce to confront Ji Yuan.

    Also, with them were 5 of the lesser Numbers.

    As they could all fly, they could quickly evacuate from the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The 2 main reasons why Number 3 and Number 5 were so furious were that they had lost the Evil Cultivation Pce just like this and this shocked them. Another reason was that they did not even have the time to use the Asura Cannon on Ji Yuan as they didn''t think that he was a threat to him.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan quietly whispered to Number 5 Yao Hong, "I may have to depend on you first. I need to save my profound pill for an emergency. He should have exhausted his sword intentions when he has brought down the Evil Cultivation Pce, so you should be able to defeat him on your own without any problem."

    Number 5 Yao Hong nodded and she had immediately popped a red profound pill that was called the Exalt Realization Profound Pill.

    It was a profound pill that could regain her cultivation realm temporary for 3 short incense time but it would be enough to handle Ji Yuan.

    They both only got one such profound pill from the Great Demon God.

    But even if they got multiple profound pills, they won''t be able to use it again for quite some time as this Exalt Realization Profound Pill would exert a heavy cost to their cultivation attainment.

    With a great burst of profound aura, Number 5 Yao Hong had regained to her middle-tier 9th realm cultivation and she was charging furiously at Ji Yuan with her divine sword.

    Number 5 Yao Hong shouted furiously to Ji Yuan, "Today, I shall make sure that you know the disparity between a deste demonic cultivator and a celestial cultivator. Moreover, I am also a deste demonic immortal while you are only a mere half-immortal celestial cultivator!"

    As she said that, there was a fire sigil on her forehead as sheughed jovially, "It is so good to have regained to my peak cultivation. Now I can use my best immortal profound arts."

    The sky around her was suddenly burning with rolling mes as she charged toward Ji Yuan, "This is Fire Domain. Burn to the death inside my Sangria Demonic Fire!"

    Ji Yuan was startled when the air around him had be unbearable hot and he could feel waves of fiery shockwave that was sapping him of his profound strength and threatening to extinguish his sword aura.

    He said coldly to Number 5, "You must be the same Number 5 that led the first invasion attack at the Eons Mountains. I''ve heard that you are a formidable immortal cultivator that almost killed my maidens¡­"

    As he had said that, he was upon Number 5 and had swung his divine sword on her, causing Number 5 to be knocked back downward into the air.

    Number 5 Yao Hong was shocked that her profound strength could not handle her blow from Ji Yuan.

    But before she could react, Ji Yuan had sent his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to explode over her, burning her up with his sword energies and dissipating all the Fire Domain that was around him.

    Her death screams were burnt up by Ji Yuan''s shrieking sword energies.

    "You still don''t realize this, do you?" Ji Yuan said coldly, "That I am an upper 9th realm half-immortal and I have a true divinity sword. Do you think that I will need to use my sword domain against you?"

    He had certainly heard Number 3 Mei Yinxuan''s whispers to Number 5 Yao Hong.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan quickly raised her profound voice to shout aloud, "What are you all waiting for in your profound ships? Attack him and kill him!"

    As she said that, she had quickly popped in her Exalt Realization Profound Pill, "Don''t engage him. Use our profound arts at a distance to weaken him first!"

    The 50 profound ships that were around did not dare to disobey themands of Number 3 Mei Yinxuan as they fired their profound cannons at Ji Yuan from all direction while Ji Yuan sped toward Number 3 and the rest of her lesser Numbers.

    Ji Yuan used his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon 5 more times against Number 3 Mei Yinxuan and her lesser Numbers but he had only seeded in killing 1 lesser Number.

    No matter how precise he had timed his sword energy attack, she would expertly evade out of his way as though she was aware of his sword energy trajectories.

    Between his 5 Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon, he was being bombarded on all sides and several immortal profound arts from Number 3 and her lesser Numbers were also bombarding him.

    While he could evade the profound cannons but the profound arts of the Numbers were much more difficult to evade and he had to use his ck divine sword to block against them; it was because they were all expert immortal cultivators and they were aiming directly at Ji Yuan and using their immortal divine sense to direct their profound attacks against him.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer was called the Immortal Seer because she could actually sense profound energies like Ji Yuan. With her acute immortal divine sense, she was able to fly out of harm''s way from Ji Yuan''s pursuing sword energies.

    A frustrated and infuriated Ji Yuan then raised his sword to disy his Dividing One Sword again and he exploded the heavens around him with his ck spear of light while nullifying the irritating the profound arts of the Numbers and the profound attacks of the profound ships at the same time.

    Immediately, a lesser Number was killed immediately while the profound shields of 10 profound ships were shattered, resulting in 8 out of 10 profound ships to be destroyed immediately. The remaining 2 profound ships were badly damaged and were unable to fire their profound cannons anymore.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was shocked, "He can use his sword domain a second time?!"

    Ji Yuan shouted aloud as he raised his ck true divinity sword again, "I can even use my sword domain profound art a third time!"

    And he had really used his Dividing One Sword a third time and this time, he had killed another lesser Number and destroyed another 10 profound ships by swinging his ck spear of profound energies wildly.

    Another 10 of the nearby profound ships were stalling; it was because while the profound shields of their profound ships had protected them but they had few remaining profound energies left to power their profound cannons anymore.

    Many of the profound ships were also firing their profound cannons at a less frequent rate and were focusing on maintaining their profound shields since they can''t hit Ji Yuan anyway.

    Their profound ships did not have much profound energies in the first ce due to the on-going war with the celestial cultivators and now, they were wasting so much of their profound ship''s profound energies on Ji Yuan.

    This shocked Number 3 Mei Yinxuan and her remaining two lesser Numbers when they saw that Ji Yuan was still able to use his Dividing One Sword a third time.

    Even the evil cultivators onboard the remaining profound ships were also shocked by the profound might that was being disyed by the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    How did he manage to gather his sword intentions and muster so much profound strength? This was impossible and unthinkable to most of them!

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan had broken into cold sweat as she tried to say to her side, "Don''t worry. He should have exhausted all his sword intentions and profound strength by now. Keep attacking him¡­"

    To her horror, Ji Yuan had once again disyed his Dividing One Sword once again as a dozen profound ships were wiped out instantly by Ji Yuan and another 8 profound ships were badly maimed by Ji Yuan.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was stunned, "This is¡­ impossible!!! How could he keep using the same sword domain repeatedly?!!!"

 Chapter 1181 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 Meixuan the Seer

    Chapter 1181 Ji Yuan vs. Number 3 Meixuan the Seer

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was in shock; how could this Sword Saint Ji Yuan able to use his Sword Domain repeatedly without exhausting his sword intentions?!!

    Moreover, she could sense a powerful life and destruction field within this sword domain. Every time he uses this sword domain, there should be a severe backsh to his life force energies.

    If it is minor sword domain then it is entirely possible but the sword domain that this Sword Saint Ji Yuan had used was just too powerful to be reuseable so many times.

    If it was Ji Yuan''s other sword domains then it was indeed true that he was not able to use repeatedly.

    But this Dividing One Sword was the inherent profound sword art of the True Devil God and it could be repeatedly used as long as Ji Yuan and Little Yui have the fighting will and the profound strength to use it.

    Because Ji Yuan had created the Sword Dao of the Mncholy as the main pir of sword intents, he had also created a more powerful version of the Dividing One Sword as well with the sanctorum power of his true divinity sword which he named the Mncholy Dividing One Sword.

    And he had used this to kill the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian not long ago.

    This was something that was unique to Ji Yuan and not even the original True Devil God knows about this more powerful sword art.

    However, Ji Yuan was indeed restricted to using this Mncholy Divine One Sword only once as he could only use the sanctorum power of his true divinity sword only once.

    As for his Sword Dao of Mncholy, it was a spirit cultivation profound art thatbined the use of his undying fighting spirit with his willpower.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were constantly reminding him that he got green by the Great Demon God and hence, each time Ji Yuan had lost his sword intentions with the use of the Dividing One Sword, he was able to focus back his sword intents again.

    It was Ji Yuan''s rage of being green by the Great Demon God that caused Ji Yuan to maintain himself with the Dividing One Sword again and again.

    Right now, Ji Yuan was imagining that the Great Demon God had forcefully taken Ding Xiaoxiao and he was extremely furious.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan the Seer was now shouting panicky to Ji Yuan as the effects of her profound pill were over and her cultivation realm was once again being suppressed, "Wait, Sword Saint Ji Yuan! I believe that you are here to surrender. Therefore, we shouldn''t be fighting¡­"

    Ji Yuan ignored her and used his Dividing One Sword for the 4th time and he had once again exploded the heavens with his ck spear of ck explosive lights, drowning more profound ships as though he was just swatting flies.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan had barely evaded his long range profound attack when she was suddenly pierced by 9 divine swords that had shed into her body.

    She was startled by this sudden attack.

    Ji Yuan had activated another sword domain, his Flying Sword Domain and had hidden it in the profound ck light of his Dividing One Sword as this Number 3 was too good in evading his Dividing One Sword and he had to try a new approach to nail her.

    Number 3 Mei Yinxuan began to crash down from the heavens as Ji Yuan''s 9 flying divine swords pierced into her body.

    The remaining lesser Number was panicky and she had immediately taken flight.

    There were still 10 profound ships that were still fully intact but when they saw that Ji Yuan had defeated both theirmanders Number 3 and Number 5, they were panicky and began to turn their profound ships around.

    Another 10 badly damaged profound ships were also following the tail of the 10 profound ships to flee together.

    "This Sword Saint Ji Yuan is too formidable¡­"

    "He is an immortal cultivator now¡­"

    "We can''t even resist his profound attack so how can we fight against him?"

    "Number 3 and Number 5 are both dead, we ought to report this to the Great Demon God¡­"

    "I have never seen such a fierce fight before¡­"

    "He has a true divinity sword¡­ we can''t beat him¡­"

    "We can''t even hit him in the first ce¡­"

    Ji Yuan popped a regaining profound strength profound pill into his mouth after he had gathered back his 9 flying swords.

    Although he still got the strength to use his Dividing One Sword to destroy the fleeing profound ships but he had decided to conserve his profound strength for his fight against the Great Demon God.

    His physical toll was great as he had used his Dividing One Sword 4 times in a row even though he still have plenty of profound strength left in his inner spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan sighed woefully, "Xiaoxiao, no matter how tainted you are, you are my maiden. I''ll rescue you from the hands of the Great Demon God!"

    And he had renewed his willpower to continue to fly at full speed toward the direction of the fleeing profound ships of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    These profound ships would soon lead him to the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan was actually quite surprised that the Great Demon God and Number 1 were not in the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    -

    -

    -

    In the mountains below, a badly maimed Number 3 Mei Yinxuan was coughing out golden blood asy on the rocky slopes.

    She was half-dead after Ji Yuan''s 9 flying divine sword had pierced through into her body.

    But she was also an immortal with superb regeneration ability and she would not die so easily.

    She simply could not believe that she would have such a big disparity with this Sword Saint Ji Yuan who was only a half-immortal cultivator.

    Her most powerful secret profound art was her ability to manipte profound energies, causing profound attacks to weaken or to be distorted.

    But against this Sword Saint Ji Yuan, her psychic cultivation profound art could not even prate into his mind or to manipte his profound arts.

    In the end, she had used her energy maniptive profound art on herself to fake her own death from this Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    She coughed weakly as she closed her eyes to rest, "It is impossible that he is merely a half-immortal. He is a true immortal for sure. It is impossible for him to use such a powerful profound art so many times¡­ but he won''t have a chance against the Great Demon God¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was startled by several howling sounds and it was a pack of 3rd rank profound beasts that had suddenly appeared.

    She was shocked by their appearance but at the same time, she was unable to move.

    And she could only scream tearfully and with great pain as she was being devoured by a pack of 3rd rank profound beasts.

    This was not the death that she had imagined and she was in tears that a high immortal like herself would be eaten alive by several low ranking profound beasts.

 Chapter 1182 The Great Desolate Divine Palace

    <h4>Chapter 1182 The Great Deste Divine Pce</h4>

    Ji Yuan was flying through the sky at a rapid speed as he followed the fleeing profound ships which had long disappeared into the horizon when he had sensed a new profound disturbance ahead of him.

    Although he didn''t see it yet but he guessed that this may be the main fleet of the Great Demon God instead.

    He had the same exact feeling when he had sensed the approach of the Evil Cultivation Pce when he was in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Ji Yuan could not exin how he was able to sense the Evil Cultivation Pce so far away but he had a natural danger sense that warned him instinctively.

    Or maybe this was because he was the reincarnation of the True Devil God or maybe his opponents were too strong that he was able to sense them from hundreds of miles away.

    He was not wrong when he had found the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    This new profound disturbance that he could feel with his divine sense was probably the approaching Great Demon God.

    Or maybe it was Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Regardless, this was the same direction of the fleeing profound ships and he had only to fly in the same direction.

    4 hourster, Ji Yuan could see a tiny speck in the horizon.

    In another 1 hour, this tiny speck shocked Ji Yuan.

    A massive citadel that was in the shape of a six-sided hexagram was seen in the sky; there were six pces on each of the edge and a massive pce with several towers were seen in the middle.

    There were probably several pces that were on each side and in the middle but this was the impression that Ji Yuan got when he saw it from afar.

    This massive citadel was easily 100 times more massive than even the Evil Cultivator Pce and it was like seeing a huge mountain that was floating in the sky!

    Even the profound ships that were anchored at one of the sides were small and there were dozens of profound ships that were anchored along the long berth that led to the middle pce.

    Ji Yuan gulped when he saw the massive size of this citadel and he had remembered that Yun Chi had told him that the Great Demon God dwelled in his Great Deste Divine Pce.

    She had also told him that the Great Deste Divine Pce could only controlled by the Great Demon God and no others.

    This massive floating citadel should be the Great Deste Divine Pce and he had never thought that it would be so massive than the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    How the heck is he going to bring this thing down?!

    The sheer size of this massive citadel was certainly not what Ji Yuan was expecting to find.

    It was no wonder why the Great Demon God was not in the Evil Cultivation Pce and was far behind; the Evil Cultivation Pce was too small for the grandeur of a true god.

    But no matter how difficult it seemed to Ji Yuan for him to kill the Great Demon God, he was not going to give up so easily.

    As he flew forward, he was halted by the gigantic profound manifestation of the Great Demon God in his throne room and he was smiling wry to him. "So you havee alone, Great Saint Ji Yuan. I have heard that you have drowned my Evil Cultivation Pce and had even killed my Numbers. So you havee to wage battle against me?"

    Ji Yuan answered shamelessly, "I hade to surrender to you but your Number 3 and Number 5 refused to believe me and had attacked me. If you don''t believe me, you can ask your fleeing troops."

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly, "There is no sincerity in your surrender. Where is the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and Little Princess?"

    Ji Yuan said, "I havee to check the terms of surrender first before I will bring them to you."

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, do you think that I will believe you? I am not a simpleton. If you want me to believe then surrender your true divinity sword to me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I can surrender my true divinity sword to you but I want to see Number 1 first."

    The Great Demon God hummed, "Why should you want to see Number 1 for?"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "I have an unfinished duel with her, that''s why. Before I surrender to you, I want to have a duel with her."

    "Oh?" The Great Demon God expressed a look of surprise, "You know Number 1? Didn''t she say that she can''t find you while she was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Ji Yuan was upset; Ding Xiaoxiao had actually imed not to know him after she had toyed with him!

    Xiang Li said to him: Big Brother, Maiden Xiaoxiao is probably trying to protect you from the Great Demon God. That''s why. Don''t be so angry.

    Anyang was also agreeing with her: That''s right.

    Ji Yuan said to them: That''s not the point. The point is she doesn''t know me! How could she forget me so easily!

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly: That isn''t the point either.

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, what makes you think that you have the courage to dictate terms with me?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "Because I had killed the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian."

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially, "It is true that the Sword Immortal Tang Haijian is strong. He is even stronger than the Evil Cultivation God Yin Xian and the Great Immortal Rohan. You have indeed saved me plenty of trouble by getting rid of him. But what a pity, you are just an insignificant ant in front of me. Do you think that I cannot feel your hatred for me?"

    Ji Yuan dropped all his pretences and said angrily, "Is the Great Demon God just someone that is a coward that he chooses to hide in his ivory tower. You are just a coward that does not want to fight me."

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially, "Save your taunting. It is pointless to use it on me. You are not my match. If you havee with the Abyssal Null Goddess then this may be a different story. Or is she hiding somewhere? I am surprise that she isn''t with you. Or you have fallen out with her already?"

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "I alone, is enough to kick your ass."

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "And how are you going to kick my ass?"

 Chapter 1183 Storming the Great Desolate Divine Palace

    <h4>Chapter 1183 Storming the Great Deste Divine Pce</h4>

    Ji Yuan ignored the profound manifestation of the Great Demon God as he sped toward the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Surprising, he did not meet with any profound cannons or attacking arrays.

    Very soon, he was upon the Great Deste Divine Pce as he sped toward it but he was suddenly knocked back by a powerful invisible inertia barrier that halted him and he was sent flying back by the electric profound shockwave of his impact.

    Ji Yuan shouted angrily, "Lightning can''t stop me!"

    Then he began to sh furiously against the profound shield of the Great Deste Divine Pce but his sword energy shes were futile and he was knocked furiously backward by the electric shockwave of the invisible inertia barrier.

    The Great Demon God roared with jovialughter, "Even if you got a true divinity sword in your hand, you won''t be able break through into the array defense of my Great Deste Divine Pce. Unless of course, you want to attempt the sword art that you have used to drown the Evil Cultivation Pce. But the question is, are you still capable of using such a powerful profound art? Even if you can enter my Great Deste Divine Pce, are you still capable of fighting me with your remaining strength?"

    Ji Yuan did not answer him and instead, he had continued to fly around as he shed his sword energies all over the profound shield of the massive Great Deste Divine Pce. At the same time, he had also disyed his 9 flying swords to sh randomly against the inertia barrier that he was shing against.

    The profound barrier of this Great Deste Divine Pce was twice as thick and powerful as the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Even if he used his Dividing One Sword against it, it won''t break the profound shield of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Also, he could no longer disy the sword domain of his Million Swords Field to gauge the weakness of the Great Deste Divine Pce''s profound shield as he had already used it against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    However, he could still disy it if he reinforced his sword intention with the Life and Death Sword Domain to use it again.

    But this Life and Death Sword Domain was extremely precious and like his other sword domains, he could only use it only once and he was saving it to fight against the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly stopped flying as he flew backward of a sudden to move his immortal scabbard from his back to his left hand.

    He suddenly had an idea to use his immortal scabbard as a weapon.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had disyed two powerful white sword energies on both his left and right hand as hebined them into his Ultrapowerful Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to plummet the middle of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    A serpentine sh of white sword energies exploded over the top of the Great Deste Divine Pce as Ji Yuan scattered his sword energies profound attack over it.

    All of a sudden, his sharp eyes spotted a curve in the profound shield of the Great Deste Divine Pce and he could even see a small copsed hole in one of the walls of the inner pces that were in the middle pce.

    He was startled: There is actually a weakness for me to exploit and at such a convenient ce?

    He did not know that this part of the profound shield that was actually damaged by Ding Xiaoxiao a few days ago.

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his Dividing One Sword against the small curve in the Great Deste Divine Pce that he had spotted as he sent a ck spear of ck light to explode over it.

    Just as the Great Demon God was mocking Ji Yuan''s efforts to reach him, the ck spear of light had suddenly punctured through the profound shield and had struck the inner pce that he was at, rocking the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Although the Great Deste Divine Pce did not suffer any damage and the profound shield was still intact, Ji Yuan''s profound attack had caused a small hole to appear in the profound defense of the profound array that protected the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    This allowed Ji Yuan to quickly speed through andnded in the middle pce of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Once he was inside, Ji Yuan was startled that he was being forced tond onto the grounds of the Great Deste Divine Pce and he could no longer fly.

    Another powerful defensive array seemed to be distorting the fields all around the Great Deste Divine Pce and this was what that had prevented Ji Yuan to use his profound aura to fly.

    No one is allowed to fly while they are at the Great Deste Divine Pce, whether they are immortals or not.

    Not even the Death God Mingwang can fly if ''he'' is here today.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he shouted at the towering pces in front of him, "Well, I am here now. Great Demon God, are you still going to hole yourself in your hideout and refusing to fight me?"

    The profound voice of the Great Demon God echoed from within the inner pce, "Since you want to die, your wish shall be granted then. I just don''t understand why should you want to fight and die for the others. Don''t you know that your own life is more precious than the others?"

    Ji Yuan clenched his fist as he said coldly, "That''s because you have killed the Saintess Fang Zhenfei. Her death shall not be in vain. And also, you shouldn''t have vited Number 1! All these and more, I shall make you pay with your life!"

    The Great Demon God frowned, "So what if I have vited Number 1? What does it have to do with you?"

    Ji Yuan said angrily, "That is because she is my maiden!!!"

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao was in assembly with the hundreds of evil cultivators that had gathered in the great halls of the inner pce and they could all hear Ji Yuan.

    Next to her was 5 of the lesser Numbers too, including one that had escaped earlier.

    Ji Yuan''s revtion shocked everyone, including Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ding Xiaoxiao thought awkwardly: What he is saying?

    Then she cast a cold look at the hundreds of high level cultivators that were gossiping with one another, "It is just our enemy''s random babblings. Do you believe the words of our enemy? He is merely trying to sow discord between me and the Great Demon God. This Sword Saint Ji Yuan is too cunning!"

    When she had said that, the 5 remaining lesser Numbers were all nodding; no one believed that Number 1 would have an affair with anyone as she had a cold demeanour all the time.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was silently cursing Ji Yuan: If you want to fight, just fight. Do you have to talk so much?

    But at the same time, there was also an excited look in her crimson eyes at the thought of seeing Ji Yuan again.

    But it soon turned to a woeful look as she muttered to herself: You shouldn''t havee here alone¡­ you should havee with the Death God Mingwang¡­

 Chapter 1184 The Staff of Destiny

    Chapter 1184 The Staff of Destiny

    In the vast emptiness of the spatial space, somewhere inside the profound mothership of the Chaos Races.

    The Chaos Sovereign Empress Destiny was visibly upset and her loyal subjects did not dare to disturb her in her throne room.

    None of her subjects had ever seen her so upset before even when they were being surrounded by the immortal Abyssal Races.

    She had simply said to her subjects, "Do not disturb me!"

    It was because she had wasted plenty of time to fight against the Abyssal Races and once her Chao Races had broken free of the blockade by the profound ships of the Abyssal Races, she had thought of sneaking away to enter the pocket dimension of her Great Oracle Gate to give Ji Yuan a surprise visit.

    That is, if he is still in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    But to her dismay, she had lost all contact with her Great Oracle Gate as a mysterious force had blocked all her attempts to establish contacts.

    This could only mean one thing and it was that Ji Yuan was already in the Celestial Realm and that the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were now over.

    She was also feeling particr bad that she had screwed up with Tang Manni and Ding Jie''Er who had trusted her to bring them to Ji Yuan.

    But now, either they were hopelessly waiting for her to return in vain or may have already fallen into the hands of the Great Demon God.

    She was nning to make her dramatic return to Ji Yuan and to cause Ji Yuan to be so overwhelmed by her appearance that he would literally be begging her to help him against the Great Demon God.

    Although she was not sure if she could defeat the Great Demon God but protecting Ji Yuan and his maidens against the Great Demon God was not a big issue for her.

    But there was a little issue with her n.

    She could only ess the Celestial Realm only if Ji Yuan was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But if he returned to the Celestial Realm, she would no longer be able to return to him.

    It was because while it was true that the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth was in the Celestial Realm, it was also essing the other worlds and there existed several small cracks that she could use to exploit.

    However, even for her, she could not make an appearance inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth due to the specialws of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Again, she had exploited a w in thews of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; while no one can enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth halfway, it was possible to bring profound treasures that they encountered during the cultivator''s trial into the other worlds.

    The skull ring that she had given Ji Yuan contained her soul essence and she could connect to it to bring herself back to the pocket world of her Great Oracle Gate.

    In short, she could hide herself in there until the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were over.

    But now she had encountered an issue with her n.

    She had thought of bring all her prized profound treasures from her Entropy Realm to the Celestial Realm but she did not expect to meet so many high level immortals of her Chaos Race that were hosting a conference in her most sacred mountain.

    This forced her to reveal herself and to be crowned as the Chaos Sovereign Empress again.

    Not only that, she was even forced to conduct an immortal war against the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm and this dyed her again and again.

    Although she was unwilling to step in to help as she had found the True Devil God after so many years, she still has to fulfil her obligations to her Chaos Race and to drive out the Immortal Abyssals from her Immortal Entropy Realm.

    She did not expect that her Immortal Chaos Race would be so disunited after she had departed for the Spirit Divine Realm.

    A long time ago, she had performed a true divination which augury to her that the True Devil God would appear in the Spirit Divine Realm and that she would be able to meet him there.

    However, she could only perform that true divination only once every 100 000 years and at a terrible cost to her life force as she had notpleted her staff of destiny yet.

    She was willing to wait for the True Devil God in the Spirit Divine Realm.

    However, she did not expect for the Great Beyond Goddess to follow her to the Spirit Divine Realm as well.

    Because she refused to tell the Great Beyond Goddess anything about the True Devil God and she was also weakened by her true divination, she was easily sealed by the Great Beyond Goddess who had said to her, "If I can''t find the True Devil God, so do you as well."

    She could only reveal herself every now and then through the Great Oracle Gate when the profound seal was weakened but she still could not escape from her prison.

    The Delphi Pce inside the Great Oracle Gate was actually her profound ship and pce while the ''Great Oracle Gate'' was her prison. But over the years, she had renamed her prison to the Great Oracle Gate and slowly gained some controls over her prison by subverting thews of her prison in the absence of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    When she was freed from her prison, she had gained full mastery of the Great Oracle Gate which she had then shrunk it to the size of the small skull ring.

    Later, she would pass her skull ring to Ji Yuan.

    But all her ns to return to the True Devil God''s side, were all in vain now.

    In the end, she was still being separated from him.

    All of a sudden, as she was tapping with her fingers on her ck staff of destiny, her eyes had suddenly shone; it was because she wondered if it was possible to divine a way to the Celestial Realm with her nowpleted staff of destiny?

    Destiny was actually nning to use it to augury the best way for her to be with the True Devil God but this was quite urgent; she was quite fearful that there may be no result as the way to the Celestial Realm was now sealed.

    With a fearful look, she began to raise her ck staff of destiny¡­

 Chapter 1185 An Upset Shui Xisi

    <h4>Chapter 1185 An Upset Shui Xisi</h4>

    Back to the Deste Celestial Fraternity in the Celestial Realm.

    12 hours ago, in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Shui Xisi flew into a rage when she had realized that Ji Yuan was missing from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and that he was not drinking with Guo Taiming.

    She angrily said to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan in front of the other maidens of Ji Yuan, "So the two of you already known that Ji Yuan would be looking for the Great Demon God himself and you did not tell us?!"

    Shangguan Yan was in tears as she could not withstand Shui Xisi''s rage.

    Even Shui Qingqing got ranted by her and she was bleary eyed.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Feng Minyue were both trying to restraint Shui Xisi.

    Shui Xisi said angrily to Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, "Ji Yuan may be nuts to confront the Great Demon God himself but the two of you are also nuts not to tell the rest of us. Do you really think that Ji Yuan is able to defeat the Great Demon God alone? The Great Demon God isn''t alone. He has an army of high level cultivators with him and his cultivators alone can exhaust Ji Yuan to the death! So if we didn''t discover that Ji Yuan is missing, you still won''t tell us?! How long have Ji Yuan been away now?!"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi quietly said, "10 hours."

    "10 hours!"

    Shui Xisi wanted to faint immediately.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi was no pushover as she quietly said, "We have promised Ji Yuan to keep his movement a secret. He didn''t want to risk anyone of you in this confrontation. If he says that he has a way, then he will have a way¡­"

    "Na?ve!" Shui Xisi interrupted her as she stormed to therge balcony that was in front of her and then she had released her 9th rank god beast phoenix. "I am going to look for him!"

    "Wait!" Yun Chi had suddenly called her to her, "Let me go with you!"

    Shui Xisi quietly nodded at Yun Chi.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were all shouting, "Mistress, let''s us go with you as well."

    Yun Chi turned to say to them and to the other maidens, "The rest of you are too weak. We are going to fight against the Great Demon God and you are useless there. The two of us will go and bring Ji Yuan back instead."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei interrupted gently, "I may be of some help. Please let mee with you. My profound arrays may be able to help you to reach Ji Yuan."

    Yun Chi nodded, "Alright then. Come with us then."

    She had heard what Xu Yifei was able to do from the other maidens and she may be of some help.

    Even Shui Xisi was nodding as she said, "Let Xu Yifei and Yun Chie with me. The rest of you please stay behind. I don''t want the rest of you to take any risks."

    With that, she had hopped on top of the phoenix god beast, followed by Yun Chi and Xu Yifei as they had taken flight together on the phoenix god beast.

    When they were far and had disappeared from the horizon, the rest of the maidens tried tofort Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    Ling Feiyue smiled, "She isn''t like this all the kind. Don''t mind her. She is just concerned about Ji Yuan, that''s all."

    Shangguan Yan tried to dry her tears as she nodded, "I know. Don''t worry about this. I''ll be fine shortly."

    Little Princess said, "Shui Xisi is as concerned about Ji Yuan as the rest of us."

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er didn''t say a word as they were looking quite mncholy and they were anxious for Ji Yuan. And they can''t me Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan as they did not have the right to do so.

    Right now, they were just hoping for Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Xu Yifei to bring back Ji Yuan safe and sound.

    Of all Ji Yuan''s maidens, only Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were both not around as they were searching elsewhere in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the nearby vicinity for Ji Yuan.

    As for Ling Tianshui and Sword Saintess Yuluo, they had a quarrel with Shui Xisi over this matter as they felt that wasn''t the fault of Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    Ling Tianshui had said to Shui Xisi, "I don''t care if they are your sister''s prot¨¦g¨¦s but they are Ji Yuan''s official first and second consort. So, you got to give them a little respect and you ought to stop scolding them."

    Even Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo had stepped in to say, "If I were them, I''d have done the same thing too. Or you want to scold me as well?"

    Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo was actually Ji Yuan''s second love, after he got bumped by his junior sister who had left with Jin Yilong. Also, she was the mother consort of Ji Hao as well.

    Although her cultivation was not as powerful as Shui Xisi but she hadmanded a great deal of respect from the other maidens due to her close rtionship with Ji Yuan.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had even remembered a time when Ji Yuan was so grieved when Sword Saintess Yuluo had ''died'' in front of him. At that time, Ji Yuan had thrown out Bai Qianfeng''s body out of her icy coffin and put Saintess Yuluo inside.

    It turned up that the icy coffin was able to revive Sword Saintess Yuluo while earning the wrath of Bai Qianfeng against Ji Yuan.

    Sword Saintess Yuluo had known Ji Yuan when she was the Saintess Yuxian which was her alias and she was forced to leave him without a word when her father had threatened to kill Ji Yuan if she did not obey him.

    When she had left, she did not tell Ji Yuan that she was actually Jian Yuluo from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor, 1 of the 7 major celestial cultivation sects in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    She had said to Shui Xisi, "We all know that you like Ji Yuan as much as we do but why are you being so harsh against Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan? This is Ji Yuan''s wishes and they are only helping him to keep it a secret from the rest of us. Didn''t they confess Ji Yuan''s whereabouts to us already?"

    But her words had also unwittingly hurt Shui Qingqing who was bleary eyed; she had finally realized her matriarch and prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress was in love with Ji Yuan as well. And she did not stand a chance anymore.

    Naturally Sword Saintess Yuluo and Ling Tianshui were not really upset with Shui Xisi despite their quarrels. But they were just trying to reason with her that it was not the me of Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan.

    But Shui Xisi had continued to me them for allowing Ji Yuan to fight alone.

    Sword Saintess Yuluo tried to reason with her that they were not as strong as her and because of this, she was not able to see from Ji Yuan''s point of view.

    But Shui Xisi had continued to rebuke Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan instead.

 Chapter 1186 The Desolate Killing Heaven Array (1)

    Chapter 1186 The Deste Killing Heaven Array (1)

    12 hourster after Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Xu Yifei had set off from the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    The Great Deste Divine Pce.

    Ji Yuan was shouting to the Great Demon God, "Since I am here now, why don''t you be a good host ande to fight me alone?"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "No hurry. Why don''t you break my first round of defense first?"

    Then he added coldly, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, you have used that powerful sword art of yours 5 times in total now. I am astonished that you can use the same powerful sword art so many times but I am afraid that you have to pay the same equivalent price with your life force. You should be at your breaking point now."

    Ji Yuan responded with equal coldness, "That sword art is my Dividing One Sword. So you are betting that I can''t use the same sword art again, am I right? Why don''t you try me?"

    This was a bluff of course as Ji Yuan was drained physically and mentally by the use of his Dividing One Sword and even his fingers were trembling.

    But he had forced himself to continue as he was also trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

    How dare the Great Demon God killed his Jiajia!

    How dare the Great Demon God vited his maiden Ding Xiaoxiao!

    It was this internal rage that had focused his sword intentions together, refusing to it dissipate away.

    It isn''t as easy as it sounded as sword intentions are needed to form the sword domain and able to use it means the sessful formation of the sword domain.

    But Ji Yuan had gathered back his sword intentions back by his forceful mind and it was twice as exhausting.

    Luckily for him, his Dividing One Sword could be used multiple times and the burden of the sword intentions were shared between him and Little Yui.

    However, he is still unable to use his other sword domains more than once except for his Flying Swords Domain which cost only a fraction of his sword intentions. Although in theory, this sword domain doesn''t have a limit but it still has to depend on how mentally exhausted Ji Yuan is.

    Likewise, even if a cultivator has 5 sword domains, he would still be hard pressed to use all 5 sword domains as the more powerful a sword domain is, the more mentally exhausted the cultivator would be.

    But of course, this may not apply to Ji Yuan as he had gained all his sword domains with a single sword intention and even his new sword domain is just an improvement of his existing sword domains.

    Also, Ji Yuan has a formidable mental ability and he also has a huge tolerant toward physical afflictions.

    Ji Yuan was now walking unhurriedly toward the main gate of the Great Deste Divine Pce when a thousand cultivators had suddenly shed in front of him from various parts of the pces of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    All of them were golden celestials and they were here to stop him!

    Also with them were a hundred 6th to 7th rank profound beasts as well!

    Ji Yuan did not see Number 1 or the other lesser Numbers so he presumed that these cultivators were merely waste fodders that were sent to weaken his profound strength.

    If he was still a seventh realm cultivator then these 1000 cultivators were more than enough to handle him.

    But he was a 9th realm cultivator now and was in a weaken state so these 1000 golden celestials were enough to handle him.

    Ji Yuan said coldly, to them as they approached him from all sides, "I don''t want to kill my fellow celestial cultivator unless it is absolutely necessary. My battle is with the Great Demon God. If you don''t want to die then step aside and don''t block me!"

    He shook his head slightly at the fates of theseckeys of the Great Demon God.

    Yun Chi had told him that once the Great Demon God had seized the Celestial Realm, he would then be able to open a gateway to the other deste worlds. In short, the Great Demon God has intended to rece the celestial cultivators with his own deste demonic cultivators.

    There was a golden and white array that was spinning all around the vicinity now.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is a profound array?"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "Indeed. This is my Deste Killing Array. While in this profound array, the profound defense of my cultivators will be enhanced and they will be able to share with their profound aura with one another. This applies to their profound attack as well. Sword Saint Ji Yuan, I''d like to see how you are able to get out of my Deste Killing Array alive."

    Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly; he had suddenly remembered from Yun Chi that the Great Demon God was also very good in using profound arrays. The many profound arrays in Bliss City that was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth were also created by the Great Demon God. But he had never thought that he would be struck inside a killing array and had more than a thousand cultivators going after his life.

    Hundreds of cultivators were now charging toward him and they were all shouting, "He is the Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Get him!"

    Ji Yuan shouted back as he disyed his sword aura and his ultra sword spirit, "I am a 9th realm cultivator. Do you think that you can stop me? Get lost if you don''t want to die!"

    Barely had Ji Yuan shouted his threats, he could see hundreds of colorful profound arts that were flying toward him to bombard him.

    JI Yuan was startled as he raised his sword over him, "What the heck?! They are serious¡­"

    Almost immediately he was rained by profound arts from all directions thatnded on him.

    Although all these ranged attacks were formidable, they were still not enough to weaken his profound aura.

    Just as Ji Yian was about to return a profound attack or two back at his attackers, he was startled to see arge profound seal that was the size of small hitnding on top of him, attempting to crash him.

    He was startled as there was actually a formidable 7th realm cultivator that was capable of using such a formidable profound art.

    Indeed, it was the deed of a man with a long beard and he was a 7th realm cultivator that was controlling this profound seal.

    Immediately he could feel a huge monument of pressure that wasnding upon him and he was now shouldering the immerse pressure of this giant profound seal with his sword.

    The man with the long beard was actually Great Saint Jin Cuishan and he was a patriarch elder of the Mystic Profound Pavilion, 1 of the 7 major orthodox celestial ns of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    And he had turned traitor and joined the Great Demon God.

    As a matter of fact, almost the entire Mystic Profound Pavilion had joined with the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    He had set a good example for the cultivators of the Mystic Profound Pavilion to follow.

    The Evil Cultivation Pce had promised him a sessful ascension should he join them.

    The Mystic Profound Pavilion was also the cultivation sect that Jin Yilong and Jin Yuyun were from.

    Great Saint Jin Cuishan was shouting to the rest of the cultivators, "What are you all waiting for? Kill this Sword Saint Ji Yuan and bring glory to our Great Demon God! Do you know how difficult this profound seal summon is? No matter how strong this Sword Saint Ji Yuan is, he is still a sword cultivator and he is incapable of stronger profound might to shake off my profound seal. This is your best opportunity to kill him!"

    Immediately all the cultivators that were capable of making range profound attacks doubled their efforts to deliver their profound arts against Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was forced to lift his sword and hand against the monument weight of this profound great seal and he was forced to bend his knees against it. At the same time, powerful profound arts were exploding on him, attempting to snuff out his sword aura and to kill him!

 Chapter 1187 The Desolate Killing Heaven Array (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1187 The Deste Killing Heaven Array (2)</h4>

    Great Saint Jin Cuishan was now shouting loudly to Ji Yuan as he disyed a physical seal in his hand, "This is my Mystic Profound Seal of the Iron Mountain! It is also 1 of the top 5 most powerful profound treasure in my Mystic Profound Pavilion. Even if you are a 9th realm cultivator now, you can''t resist the profound might of my Mystic Profound Seal of the Iron Mountain that is equivalent to the profound might of 10 great saints! I shall revert your fake cultivation back to the 7th realm!"

    Like many of the cultivators that were presented in the field, none of them actually believe that Ji Yuan was a true 9th realm cultivator and they had thought that he must have taken some powerful miracle pill or use a powerful profound treasure to increase his cultivation realm temporary.

    They can''t be med for thinking in this manner because the highest realm in the Celestial Realm is just the 7th realm cultivation.

    There were cases when a cultivator was able to increase his cultivation realm to beyond the 7th realm cultivation but this was only temporary and often used by the heretic cultivators. But the effect of the increase in cultivation realm was always temporary and it also had a bacsh.

    Even Ji Yuan''s maidens did not believe that he could be able to go beyond the 8th and the 9th realm cultivation.

    This was too sudden for some of his maidens to ept, even those maidens that had apanied Ji Yuan into the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Previously, Ji Yuan could only increase his cultivation realm to the temporary 8th realm by using his Deste Cherubim as his spirt animus to increase his profound aura to the 8th realm.

    But ever since Ji Yuan had been struck 81 times by the immortal lightning and merged with his golden avatar, his cultivation realm had since increased to beyond the heavenlyws that were allowed for the middle realm.

    His enemies were not wrong to assume that Ji Yuan was a half-immortal and therefore he was not stronger than a true immortal.

    However, this was only their assumption.

    A half-immortal Ji Yuan was stronger than even the lowest ranked true immortal due to his golden avatar.

    If Ji Yuan was a true immortal, then his immortal cultivation realm would propel him to the very top of the immortals as his cultivation body had destined for him to be a true divinity with no bottleneck.

    After all, when the True Devil God had died, he was already a true divinity and so was his golden avatar.

    The True Devil God''s golden avatar was not a mere avatar; it had been prepared in advance for the return of his reincarnation so that he could save plenty of cultivation time in the long road of cultivation.

    Moreover, Ji Yuan had also found Little Yui and this increased his speed of absorption with the golden avatar of the True Devil God.

    A bloodied Ji Yuan that was bombarded in several directions by the fierce profound arts and he was furious now.

    He was not going to stand by and allowed himself to be killed.

    Thousands of profound swords were formed from his sword aura all around him, deflecting or absorbing the storm of fierce profound arts that were hurling against him.

    He was cursing them in his heart: You guys are bullying a 9th realm cultivator and I am not going to be the first 9th realm cultivator to be defeated by all of you.

    Ji Yuan had disyed his Million Swords Field once again by disying his Life and Death Sword Domain.

    He didn''t want to use his Life and Death Sword Domain but he had no other choice; the number of profound arts were too fierce and his opponents were too numerous. Even if he could tank their profound arts due to his higher realm cultivation but they were depleting his sword aura at a fast pace.

    "What is this?"

    "Howe there are so many profound swords all of a sudden that are around the Sword Saint Ji Yuan?!"

    "This is a¡­ sword domain?"

    "This Sword Saint Ji Yuan is capable of using a sword domain?!"

    "Although we are under his sword domain but he is also under the Deste Killing Heaven Array. Moreover, he is being trapped by the Mystic Profound Seal of the Iron Mountains with no mobility. Let''s hurry and get close to him to deliver our more powerful profound arts against him¡­"

    The thousands of profound swords were suddenly flying in all directions and there were terrifying screams as the thousands of profound swords exploded fiercely toward the attacking cultivators and the profound beasts.

    Many of the profound beasts were killed by the profound swords as Ji Yuan''s cultivation realm was the 9th realm and his profound power was not something that most of the profound beasts would be able to handle especially when it was empowered by Ji Yuan''s Life and Death Sword Domain.

    As for the cultivators, many were severely wounded by Ji Yuan. As they were sharing profound aura with all the cultivators in the Deste Killing Heaven Array, many of them were able to resist the attacking profound swords by drawing it from the other cultivators.

    This was a luxury that the profound beasts did not have as the profound beasts were not capable of using the cultivation arts and therefore incapable of using the Deste Killing Heaven Array.

    Ji Yuan had also disyed his nine flying swords all around him and sending his most powerful sword into the heart of the Great Saint Jin Cuishan, instantly killing him.

    He had used his half-step emperor divine sword on this Great Saint Jin Cuishan and his flying sword apanied by Ji Yuan''s fierce sword energies enveloping him easily pierced through the protective profound aura of the Great Saint Jin Cuishan.

    While he was using his Mystic Profound Seal of the Iron Mountain on Ji Yuan, he was also immobilized on the same spot and bing Ji Yuan''s target.

    When he had died, he had a look of disbelief in his stunned eyes.

    Ji Yuan''s Flying Sword Domain was less powerful than his Million Swords Field but his 9 divine swords were physical swords and were actually more powerful than his profound sword by several notches. That was why even though the Great Saint Jin Cuishan was able to resist his profound swords, he was not able to resist even a single sword from Ji Yuan''s Flying Sword Domain. Moreover, Ji Yuan had used a half-step emperor divine sword on him so how could he have resisted it while he was being immobilized?

    Ji Yuan''s Million Swords Field have two stages. He had merely used the first stage to make his retaliation against the attacking attacks. The second stage was his Harker of the Million Swords where he focused all his profound swords into a single straight line to repeatedly attack the same target. This second stage was more powerful than his Flying Sword Domain and he had also previously used it to ovee his Immortal Heavenly Wrath Tribtion to be a half-immortal.

    However, Ji Yuan was forced to use only the first stage of his Million Swords Field which he had evolved from his Thousand Sacred Swords and also his Life and Death Sword Domain on these cultivators.

    It was a total waste of one of his top sword domains and profound arts.

    Ji Yuan''s heart almost bled from the use of his Million Swords Field and his Life and Death Sword Domain as he was forced to use it on his lesser opponents; it was too wasteful!

    "What?! He can use another sword domain while he is using another sword domain?"

    "I can''t resist these profound swords anymore¡­"

    "You are using my profound aura to resist his attacks¡­"

    When the Great Saint Jin Cuishan was killed, the monument pressure that was on Ji Yuan had also disappeared and he was freed to move.

    As he moved, he was shing many of the cultivators and profound beasts as though he was cutting paper.

    In just a few blinks of an eye, Ji Yuan had floored numerous cultivators on the ground.

    There were many cultivators that were pretending to be dead and they had secretly cut off their profound aura from the Deste Killing Heaven Array by sealing off their cultivation core to prevent their profound aura from being drained.

    Ji Yuan''s profound swords were flying everywhere and constantly manifesting to attack any standing cultivators that were still standing.

    Several more blinks of an eyeter, Ji Yuan''s profound swords from his Million Swords Field had also disappeared as all the cultivators were now lying on the ground.

    Many were not dead but they were pretending to be dead and they had lost all their fighting will.

    Because of theck of fighting will and killing intentions against Ji Yuan, his Million Swords Domain was forced to disappear even though there were many still many cultivators that were pretending to be immobilized.

    Even Ji Yuan''s Flying Sword Domain was also forced to be in dormant.

    Ji Yuan knows that they were only pretending as he walked past them but as a sword saint, it was his personal honor that he should not strike the fallen and moreover, they had no fighting spirit that was left.

    The surviving cultivators were all freaked out by Ji Yuan as they dared not move as they pretended to y dead.

    He was too strong and even their most powerful profound arts were easily deflected by his lightning fast sword.

    Ji Yuan shouted aloud, "Great Demon God, is this the best that you can do?! Are you a coward that hides in your pce?"

    The profound voice of the Great Demon Godughed coldly, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, you have indeed earned the right to meet me¡­"

 Chapter 1188 The Great Demon God Hong Meng

    <h4>Chapter 1188 The Great Demon God Hong Meng</h4>

    "You have indeed earned the right to be in my audience." The profound voice of the Great Demon God Hong Meng echoed his voice in the vicinity of Ji Yuan.

    As Ji Yuan walked toward the rising pce that was in front of him, there were hundreds of shes of light as more and more cultivators were teleported in front of him.

    All these cultivators were more formidable than the earlier cultivators that had attacked Ji Yuan and they were staring coldly at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan saw a beautiful maiden in white that was standing far in front of him and he was gasping softly to himself; it was because it was Ding Xiaoxiao.

    But she had a nonchnt look on her as though she did not know Ji Yuan.

    An old cultivator with long beard was also seen next to Ding Xiaoxiao and he was none other than the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God was a head taller than anyone else and two heads taller than Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Ji Yuan was actually quite tall but the Great Demon God was a head taller than him.

    This was the very first time that Ji Yuan had seen the Great Demon God instead of his profound manifestation and he looked more imposing than Ji Yuan had expected.

    As a matter of fact, the imposing aura of the Great Demon God far outshone all the hundreds of cultivators that had appeared in front of him.

    Ji Yuan was clenching his fists tightly on his ck true divinity sword as he walked slowly toward the Great Demon God as he said to himself: Xiaoxiao, no matter if you got vited by the Great Demon God or not, you are my maiden and I won''t mind your past. You belong to me and I will kill the Great Demon God today and to free you from his evil clutches¡­

    The Great Demon God smiled as Ji Yuan walked slowly toward him and also interrupting his thoughts, "You must be a little disappointed, am I right? That I am just a frail old man andcked the oppressing aura that you should be feeling."

    Ji Yuan gritted his teeth as he answered, "This is but a deception to make me drop my guard against you. You are more formidable than anyone that I''ve met. There is a powerful killing intention from you."

    The Great Demon God chuckled, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, I just wonder what gives you the courage to stand in front of me and my cultivators. Even if you are a 9th half-immortal cultivator now but you are not a true immortal. Just like the Saintess Fang Zhenfei, you will still be killed by me. However, since you have the courage toe to my Great Deste Divine Pce alone and you can even break my Deste Killing Heaven Array, I shall grant you an audience."

    Then he smirked coldly as she sketched his hands wide opened, "But so what if you can see me? What can you do to me? You are not at your peak and even if you are in your peak, you still won''t be able to defeat me¡­

    Ji Yuan interrupted coldly, "So the Great Demon God is someone that dare not fight with me 1 to 1 even though I am not at my peak¡­"

    Then heughed aloud and echoed his profound voice loudly, "Did you all hear that? The Great Demon God is nothing but a big coward that dares not fight with a mere half-immortal cultivator. Or maybe the Great Demon God can''t fight at all. Then why don''t all of you submit to me instead of the Great Demon God?"

    Ji Yuan was mocking the Great Demon God in front of his cultivators and there were several ugly faces among them now and many were staring angrily or coldly at Ji Yuan.

    As for Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, she was still in her usual nonchnt look.

    There was a small twitch in the face of the Great Demon God as he coldly said, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, if you havee here with a more humble attitude, then I can consider keeping alive until the day that I have taken the Celestial Realm and your maidens for myself. But you have great disappointed me."

    Then he had slowly stepped forward, much to the startled surprise of many of his cultivators.

    "Great Demon God! Just leave him to us!"

    "You''re giving him too much honor of fighting him alone¡­"

    "Although this Sword Saint Ji Yuan deserves to be taught a lesson but he is only an insignificant ant in front of a true god¡­"

    "How dare this Ji Yuan speaks in such an arrogant manner in front of our Great Demon God¡­"

    However, the Great Demon Godughed jovially as he stepped forward, "It is alright. He deserves to see my might as the ''Last Hero Savior of the Celestial Realm''."

    Ding Xiaoxiao had suddenly spoken and she had a wry smile, "Great Demon God, do you want to order me to fight with this Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    The Great Demon God smiled back, "Nay. I need you to help me to deal with the Death God Mingwang. He is but an insignificant ant that I can dispatch in a few moments."

    Ji Yuan on the other hand was shocked and upset when he saw that Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling at the Great Demon God!

    How could she have smiled at the Great Demon God when she is his maiden?!

    How dare this Great Demon God green him and has taken his maiden?!

    The Great Demon God could see that Ji Yuan was seething with rage but he did not know the real reason and had thought that Ji Yuan was upset about the invasion of the Celestial Realm.

    Without a word, the Great Demon God had released his profound aura to the peak of the 9th realm cultivation and immediately, the vicinity had exploded with the oppressing profound pressure of the Great Demon God, causing many of the cultivators to be frightened and were even moving back.

    Only Ding Xiaoxiao and Ji Yuan was unaffected by the powerful profound aura of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God took a disdainful look at Ji Yuan as he smirked coldly, "Great Saint Ji Yuan, you have sessfully aroused my interest in fighting you. Very well then, I shall grant your wish of seeing the futility of your attempts against a true god of the Immortal Deste Realm."

    Ji Yuan merely replied coldly, "So the Great Demon God isn''t a coward at all."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was secretly cursing Ji Yuan in her heart: Ji Yuan, you are not the match of the Great Demon God. Why did you have toe here alone? If you havee with the Death God Mingwang, your odds will be higher. This is the real body of the Great Demon God and not his avatar. Do you know that he is as strong as the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo that we have fought thest time? If he uses his Mystic Third Eye, then his profound strength will even increase further. If I were to fight you then you may have a chance to escape from this ce but you have to provoke the Great Demon God¡­"

 Chapter 1189 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (1)

    Chapter 1189 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (1)

    Ji Yuan and the Great Demon God were separated by a mile apart.

    However, to the two of them, a distance of a mile could easily be covered in just a few blinks of an eye.

    As for the cultivators that were behind the Great Demon God, they were standing a good 5 mile away.

    One could imagine how vast and massive the Great Deste Divine Pce really was and this was just the middle section of the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    The Great Demon God said to Ji Yuan, "I''d be generous enough to allow you to make the first move first since you are a cultivation junior."

    Ji Yuan was not polite as he immediately shed to disy dozens of sword bursts on the Great Demon God.

    As expected, his sword energies were dissipated by the profound aura around the Great Demon God.

    But this was just test as Ji Yuan was encircling the Great Demon God to look for a better opportunity for an attack.

    Then all of a sudden, he had raised his immortal scabbard together with his ck true divinity sword as he exploded his Grand Cross over the Great Demon God.

    No matter how strong the profound aura of the Great Demon God was, it won''t be able to block his direct profound attack.

    As Ji Yuan''s grand cross exploded over the Great Demon God, he was startled that the Great Demon God had caught his sword with the strong grip of his fingers and the profound energies of his Grand Cross were scattered away from the Great Demon God, leaving several cracks on the ground.

    The Great Demon God immediately swung Ji Yuan aside by throwing him away from him.

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, is this your most powerful profound attack? It doesn''t look powerful to me."

    Ji Yuan was stunned; his Grand Cross Profound Art was a miracle profound art and the profound power of his Grand Cross could burn the profound strength of any opponents that dared to block it. But the Great Demon God had actually blocked his Grand Cross with his bare hands and this was too unbelievable to Ji Yuan.

    All of a sudden, the Great Demon God was hurling dozens of ball lightning toward Ji Yuan. "Why don''t you have a little fun first and take my Myriad Voidfire Lightning?"

    The speed of the Great Demon God''s ability to muster his profound art was simply too insane as dozens upon dozens of ball lightnings were summoned to be hurl toward Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan began to swing his sword to parry off the ball lightnings and causing them to explode away from him.

    He was not slow either and he was swinging his sword at a rapid rate as the dozens of ball lightnings kept exploding away from him while the Great Demon God kept increasing his speed until it soon be a furious storm of thousands of ball lightnings explosion that shook even the Great Deste Divine Pce!

    The Great Demon God was startled that the profound explosion of his ball lightnings did not affect Ji Yuan.

    Or rather, it did not even have a chance to explode its profound energies on him.

    One must know that when his avatar had used the same profound ball lightning on the Saintess Fang Zhenfei, she was also hurt by the exploding ball lightning even though she had parried it with her profound arts and she had to evade instead. However, the Great Demon God''s avatar was also able to explode his ball lightning prematurely and the exploding profound shockwaves were also able to hurt her.

    Just how powerful was one ball lightning?

    It was enough to kill or seriously injured a 7th realm great saint!

    That was how powerful one ball lightning was!

    But right now, Ji Yuan was swinging his sword at an insane speed that were hurling all the ball lightning to explode away from him. Because he was so fast, the ball lightnings were not even able to explode at the point of impact but only exploded away from him.

    In just that very split moment of impact, Ji Yuan had already used his sword to parry all the ball lightnings far away from him.

    This was not due to sheer luck but Ji Yuan was extremely precise in his swings and uracy.

    This not only startled the Great Demon God but all the other cultivators as well. And this also included Ding Xiaoxiao who could not believe that Ji Yuan''s speed attack would be this fast that he was able to match the Great Demon God speed for speed.

    The Great Demon God had even tried to explode his ball lightning on Ji Yuan before it got deflected far away but each time Ji Yuan seemed to be able to sense it and he had jumped out of harm''s way.

    Soon, thousands of ball lightnings were hurled at Ji Yuan until the entire vicinity had be a smouldering ruinedndscape and yet, the Great Demon God was not able to hit Ji Yuan with his profound ball lightnings.

    Not even an upper 9th realm immortal cultivator would be able to survive the storm of ball lightning that the Great Demon God was hurling.

    The Great Demon God was suddenly breaking in sweat for the very first time because the effort to nail Ji Yuan had drained him of his profound strength. It was because was not easy to even muster the profound strength of a single 9th realm profound ball lightning in the first ce due to his destructive profound energies and moreover, the Great Demon God had mustered thousands of ball lightnings in such a short time.

    All of a sudden, the Great Demon God had suddenly realized that he had fallen into the ruse of Ji Yuan as he expended his profound strength; this Ji Yuan was simply not even making an effort for a counter-attack and he was just using minimum profound strength to keep himself alive.

    This enraged the Great Demon God as he had suddenly ceased his profound attack, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, you really got me mad! It seems that I have to get serious with you!"

    As the Great Demon God said that, the red sigil that was on his forehead had vanished and a crimson eye could be seen!

    The profound aura of the Great Demon God had suddenly increased further in profound might and it startled everyone including Ji Yuan.

    And a giant dark spirit animus that was 7 times the size of the Great Demon God was also enveloping around him.

    This giant dark spirit animus immediately brought upon great fear to many of the cultivators and they were forced to knee in front of it and also their profound strength was also being drained by it!

    Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and many of the cultivators were shouting to everyone, "Everyone, move back a further 5 miles away!"

    Ji Yuan gasped with shock, "Half-step True Divinity profound aura?! He is releasing all his profound strength now? This is the real power of the half-step True Divinity Great Demon God?"

    As he gasped, he had switched his true divinity sword to his left hand as his right hand was numbed from deflecting the numerous ball lightnings earlier.

    Actually Ji Yuan was never a right handed cultivator; his left hand was actually faster than his right hand and also stronger.

    But he had pretended to practice his left hand by ident in front of Fairy Ye Chengxi to mislead her into thinking that he was secretly practicing with his left hand.

    This was supposed to be his hidden trump card.

    However speed attacks were useless against the Great Demon God.

    While the other cultivators had thought that Ji Yuan''s right hand was useless now and this would affect hisbat ability, this was actually not true.

    But he had seeded in misleading even Ding Xiaoxiao and she was looking anxiously at the battle in front of her.

    The Great Demon God said coldly to Ji Yuan, "Don''t be misunderstood that I will be returning to the Immortal Deste Realm after I have released my true profound strength. It is because I have already cultivated back my true profound strength a hundred years ago."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What?!"

    But he quickly said, "Even so, someone once told me that if I can force you to use 2/3 of your profound strength, then you would have no other choice but to pack up and leave the Celestial Realm."

    The Great Demon God frowned, "I am surprised that you know about this. But don''t worry, you will probably die long before that. Because you won''t survive."

    And then the Great Demon God had disyed a red sword in his hand and it was an immortal-step divine sword.

 Chapter 1190 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (2)

    Chapter 1190 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (2)

    The dark spirit animus that had enveloped the Great Demon God was not only 7 times taller than the Great Demon God himself but Ji Yuan could feel that it was also enveloping the Great Demon God 7 times thicker as well.

    Ji Yuan could even feel the burning sensation of the Great Demon God''s dark spirit animus from where he was standing and he knows that he would be burnt by it as soon as he got close to the Great Demon God.

    Not even when he was fighting with the Immortal Abyssal Gong Abyssal, did he feel such a deadly and formidable presence.

    As he had already summoned his Deste Cherubim Spirit Animus when he was attacking the Evil Cultivation Pce, he was unable to summon it again as he had already used up half of his spiritual energies in his inner spiritual sea.

    Although this attempt was just to show the Great Demon God that he got a formidable spirit animus as well but it would still be pale inparison whenpared to the spirit animus of the Great Demon God and it would quickly be destroyed.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly to himself; it seemed that every single one of these true gods are all monsters. It was no wonder why Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had told him that there was a reason why they are the true gods in the first ce and that no other immortals were truly capable of overtaking them.

    Just like the Great God Pangu was capable of using the universal righteous force as his strength to contest against the annihting fire of the Great God Xuan Yuan, the true god of the Deste Immortals. All these true gods all have their own uniqueness that could make them stand up against the other true gods and among the other immortals.

    When the Great God Xuan Yuan was around, the Deste Immortals did not fear the Pangu Immortals or the other true gods of the Immortal Deste Realm such as the Great Demon God Hong Meng, the Deste Dragon God Longdi, the Death God Mingwang, including the other powerful true gods of the Immortal Deste Realm.

    All the true gods are so unique that their uniqueness could not be inherited as they are all the most powerful of all the first generation immortals. However, their cultivation was also struck at the bottleneck of the peaked 9th realm or the half-step true divinity in order to breakthrough to the forbidden 10th cultivation realm of the true divinity.

    Bai Qianfeng had told Ji Yuan before she returned to the Immortal Realm that even though the Great God Pangu is a true divinity true god but he had no real advantage against their Great God Xuan Yuan as he was at the half-step divinity. But it was the betrayal of the World Ruler Fuxi, another half-step true god of the Deste Immortals that tilted the advantage to the Pangu Immortals.

    Against two true gods, their Great God Xuan Yuan was killed and his star had fallen from the heavens, much to the horror of the Deste Immortals.

    That was what had caused many of the Deste Immortals to flee from the Immortal Realm to the lower realms and also elsewhere.

    The Deste Immortals were formerly from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm and they were the true celestial immortals as they cultivate the profound deste energies.

    They were also chaotic in nature and warlike. The Nine Heavens Immortal Realm back then was not a peaceful immortal realm and it was very much like the Immortal Deste Realm where the Great Demon God dwelled.

    When the Great God Pangu had be the first true god of the celestial immortals to be a true divinity, he had also defeated the Great God Pangu and the World Ruler Fuxi.

    Since then, the celestial immortals were split between the Deste Immortals and the Pangu Immortals that remained in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

    The Great God Pangu then gave up his life to ce a powerful seal that prevented the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm from being essed by the other immortal realms after he had banished the Deste Immortals.

    However, this powerful profound seal would weaken every 10 000 years or every 100 000 years in the middle realm of the Celestial Realm. For the lower mortal realm, it would be every 1 million years.

    During thest time the powerful profound seal had weakened, the Great God Xuan Yuan had created the Asura Cannons with his Annihting Fire and this had given the Deste Immortals an opportunity to break through the profound seal of the Great God Pangu.

    All these, Bai Qianfeng had revealed to Ji Yuan just before she had left for the Immortal Realm.

    "Don''t worry. The Nine Heavens is a vast divine realm. There are plenty of ces for me to hide," Bai Qianfeng tried to assure Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had said woefully, "Just how big is the Nine Heavens? If it is so vast, you won''t be forced toe to the Celestial Realm."

    Bai Qianfeng had smiled to him, "1 million miles for each of the boundaries of the Nine Heavens. 9 million miles in total. I was injured thest time and there are enemies all over the ce. So I didn''t have a choice but to descend to the Celestial Realm with my fellow immortals. But this time, it is different. I am a Great Goddess now and it won''t be easy to track a lone immortal. Moreover, I can also cultivate the righteous profound energies and I can disguise my deste aura now."

    Ji Yuan nearly fainted when he had heard that; it was too mind blogging to him and it was indeed a vast realm.

    -

    -

    -

    Back the current situation.

    The Great Demon God had suddenly raised his left hand and a dark profound circle could be seen encircling between Ji Yuan and him.

    This dark profound circle could be seen shrinking in size with each passing moment even though it had a half-mile radius.

    The Great Demon Godughed jovially, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, I can''t have you escape from a duel with me. Am I right to say so? While this profound circle is active, you can''t escape."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "I don''t mind that you put a restrictive profound circle here but why is that, it is shrinking?"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "I can''t afford to have you run all over the ce instead of fighting me, am I right? After all, it is a duel that you are looking for and not a running contest."

    "Wait!" Ji Yuan said. "Give me a moment!"

    The Great Demon God frowned, "I''ve suddenly realized that you seemed to talk a lot even in a bad situation such as this."

    Ji Yuan frowned as well: What the heck?! I didn''tin about him and he hasint about me?!

    But he quickly disyed a golden robe from his spatial storage.

    This was his golden emperor robe that Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had returned to him.

    As Ji Yuan knows that it would be difficult for him to resist the invading burning dark animus of the Great Demon God, he would need to beef up on his profound defenses. The problem was, he did not have any powerful profound force that could resist it.

    But he had remembered that he had a golden emperor robe that could beef up his profound defenses.

    Ji Yuan shouted as he put on the golden emperor robe, "I am ready now!"

    When he had put on the golden emperor robe, he was looking even more dashing and this caused many of the female cultivators to have a bashful look; Ji Yuan was already very beautiful looking but his ragged robe had put off many of the female cultivators with a more exquisite taste to disdain him.

    However, when Ji Yuan had put on his emperor golden robe, he seemed to have be the most dashing male cultivator around and this had even caused some of the female lesser Numbers to look at him with an interest.

    Many of the female cultivators had decided secretly that it was such a pity to kill such a dashing and beautiful man.

    But for the male cultivators, Ji Yuan was an eye sore and he did not deserve to live because he was more handsome than them.

 Chapter 1191 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (3)

    Chapter 1191 Ji Yuan vs. the Great Demon God (3)

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly when he saw Ji Yuan in his golden emperor robe, "Although your robe is a profound treasure indeed but it won''t be able to protect you against my demonic fire aura."

    Ji Yuanughed coldly to respond, "Hahaha, I didn''t think that it may do much either but every little bit of help will be useful to me."

    Dozens of crimson profound circles were now being seen around the Great Demon God as he said coolly, "This is my most powerful profound art the ''Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction''. Let''s see if you are able to take a blow from my profound attack first."

    A burst of fiery profound energies then erupted from the multiple crimson profound circles.

    Ji Yuan was not slow too as he readied his Dividing One Sword.

    In the next blink of an eye, the red profound energies from the Great Demon God had erupted while the ck profound energies that were from Ji Yuan''s Dividing One Sword had also erupted from his true divinity sword.

    Both powerful profound energies, one red and one ck collided with fiery burst of profound energies that exploded against one other when collided together.

    Such was the outpouring of the two profound energies that the entire Great Deste Divine Pce was rocking unsteadily and many of the cultivators were swept by the two rippling shockwaves of the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction and the Dividing One Sword as it collided together.

    Barely 5 blinks of an eyeter, the powerful red profound energies of the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction ovee the ck profound energies of the Dividing One Sword and had swept over Ji Yuan, exploding on him!

    When it exploded upon Ji Yuan, it also sent a secondary effect of a huge pir of dark fire that consumed Ji Yuan''s golden emperor robe and his sword aura as it sent Ji Yuan to fly in the air beforending with a thunderous crash!

    And the dark fire continued to burn on Ji Yuan, as it continued to consume his remaining profound aura!

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "This is the difference between a true god and a mere immortal cultivator. Even if you manage to cultivate to the 10th realm true divinity, your cultivation body is still far inferior to that of a true god. Below a true god, you are but an ant. It is impossible for you to extinguish my Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction because you are merely a sword cultivator without any other profound treasures¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had weakly stood up again and the dark fire was extinguished.

    This startled the Great Demon God, "You can extinguish my Dark Crimson Fire?"

    There was a reason why Ji Yuan was able to extinguish the dark crimson fire; it was due to Xiang Li, Anyang and Aura that were frantically extinguishing it with all their spiritual powers.

    Anyang had used her water element and Aura had used her divine tree manifestation to absorb the dark crimson fire while Xiang Li was panicky trying to increase their spiritual powers.

    The effort to extinguish the dark crimson fire had totally exhausted Anyang and Aura, causing them to fall weakly into Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea.

    Luckily for them, Ji Yuan''s true body is the Void Body of the True Devil God and they were able to quickly extinguish it for him.

    Ji Yuan could only mutter a weak gratitude to them as he struggled to stand while using his ck divine sword as a support.

    The Great Demon God asked, "Don''t tell me that you have used the Goddess Tear to extinguish my Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction?"

    But he was soon smiling, "No matter what. Your sword aura is now exhausted. You can''t use your sword domains anymore. In a melee against me, you will be consumed by my dark demon spirit animus. This is perhaps the best ending for you as a sword cultivator."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was suddenly heard shouting, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan! You''re no match for the Great Demon God at his peak. Give it up! You have no more sword aura and even your profound aura are consumed. You don''t have much of a profound strength left now. If you don''t want to die, just surrender to the Great Demon God and acknowledge him as your master. In this way, you can live and some of your maidens may also live. It is not shameful to admit defeat in the face of a superior opponent¡­"

    "Hahahaha¡­" Ji Yuan had suddenlyughed aloud as he interrupted Ding Xiaoxiao. "Surrender? Never! I can still fight and I still have my trump card."

    The Great Demon God was amused by Ji Yuan, "Then why don''t you show me your trump card? Or is your trump card the Goddess Tear?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "My Xiang Li isn''t my tool. I don''t care if she is the Goddess Tear or not and I will not allow her to be sacrificed because I want to defeat you."

    "But if you die, your Goddess Tear will also vanish." The Great Demon God smirked. "Why don''t you make a wish for me instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Maiden Dream Mist once said to me that the Goddess Tear cannot be used on evil people like you. So, you can forget about this. Whether I choose to use the Goddess Tear or not, is none of your business."

    Ji Yuan did not know that Xiang Li was able to hear him as she had since evolved.

    Xiang Li was muttering to herself: Big Brother¡­ I am willing to sacrifice myself for you. Just tell me what you want me to do for you? If you want to defeat the Great Demon God, maybe I can aid you. In the end, I am merely a tool. If I am a just a wish and a hope by the Great Beyond Goddess for the world, then I am willing to give up my life for you.

    Ji Yuanughed as he continued, "Who says I am spent? This is my trump card then¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had burned his profound energies in his inner spiritual sea and his sword aura was rekindled again and this time round, it was a golden sword aura!

    At the same time, his cultivation realm had also increased to the peak of the 9th realm cultivation from the upper 9th realm.

    It was not just his profound aura that had turned golden but his body had also turned golden.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was astonished, "Golden sword aura? Golden Body? Is it the Golden Invincible Body? When did he cultivate the Golden Invincible Body? It is impossible for even the powerful immortals to cultivate the Golden Invincible Body and moreover, he has also cultivated the golden sword aura at the same time."

    It was not just Ding Xiaoxiao who was astonished and so were the rest of the cultivators as well.

    Even the Great Demon God was startled as he stared angrily at Ji Yuan, "It is impossible for you to conceal such cultivation. You must have used the Goddess Tear!"

    Xiang Li who could hear the Great Demon God was protesting silently: Me? I didn''t do a thing at all.

 Chapter 1192 Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Xu Yifei

    <h4>Chapter 1192 Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Xu Yifei</h4>

    Ji Yuan grinned at the Great Demon God, "Believe it or not. I didn''t use the Goddess Tear and I don''t need the Goddess Tear to defeat you!"

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly as he disyed his crimson divine sword, "I seem to have greatly underestimate you. You seemed to have found the inheritance of a true god while you are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but no matter what, it is impossible for you to cultivate like a true god. This is something that cannot be changed and you have no hope of oveing me."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Is that so? Because my next attack will end your disdain for me. Because this next attack of mine will be my most powerful profound art."

    The Great Demon Godughed, "I am not so easily intimidated by you. If you got a more powerful profound art then you would have already used it. If I am not wrong, you must be burning your spiritual energies now. You can use a more powerful profound attack than your Dividing One Sword?"

    Ji Yuan said coolly, "Since you want to see my Ultimate Dividing One Sword then I shall grant your death wish."

    When he had said that, both Ji Yuan and the Great Demon God were both mustering their profound power into their swords.

    Ji Yuan''s ck divinity sword was enveloped by a golden aura as he was about to make his move.

    But all of a sudden, there was a shrieking sound that could be heard and a phoenix god beast was fast approaching.

    Ji Yuan was startled to see that it was Shui Xisi, Yun Chi and Xu Yifei that were mounted on this phoenix god beast.

    He gasped, "Why are they here?"

    When they were approaching, dozens of profound ships were zing their profound cannons at them since the evil cultivators did not receive any instructions by the Great Demon God not to open fire.

    The phoenix god beast simply shook off the attacks of the profound cannons and immediately destroyed five profound ships.

    Shui Xisi shouted aloud, "If you don''t want to be destroyed by my phoenix god beast then don''t you dare to stop us!"

    Almost immediately none of the profound ships had dared to fire at them because this was a 9th rank gigantic god beast that could easily wipe their profound ships with just a mighty hit.

    The Great Demon God merely hummed coldly, "Reinforcements? They won''t be able to enter the space of my Great Deste Divine Pce. Not even this phoenix god beast would be able to break my profound barrier."

    But no sooner had he said that, Yun Chi disyed a heaven-step divine sword as she teared a hole into the profound barrier of the Great Deste Divine Pce with her profound art. She had avoided using her emperor-step divine sword as it would be recognizable by the Great Demon God as belonging to the Death God Mingwang.

    Once a hole had been made by her in the profound barrier, she had jumped down to behind Ji Yuan, along with Xu Yifei and Shui Xisi.

    As the phoenix god beast Augustina was too big to enter into the profound barrier of the Great Deste Divine Pce, Shui Xisi had recalled her back to her soul sea.

    The Great Demon God was startled by Yun Chi as he thought: This maiden¡­ how did she manage to breakthrough into my profound barrier so easily?!

    Shui Xisi shouted to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, we are here to help you!"

    But Ji Yuan immediately shouted back, "Sisi! Don''te near me! This is between the Great Demon God and I! Stay back!"

    He was really afraid that Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei woulde to assist him, not knowing how deadly the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction really was.

    Luckily Yun Chi had halted them as she said firmly to them, "Maiden Xisi and Maiden Yifei, please stay back for now and stay behind me. We will only distract Ji Yuan if we fight alongside with him."

    There was a kind of authority in her voice that caused even Shui Xisi to obey Yun Chi after a short hesitation.

    But she could not resist shouting to Ji Yuan, "Be careful, you little rascal. Don''t you dare to die in front of me!"

    As for Xu Yifei, she had already quietly walked behind Yun Chi and she was quietly saying. "Master Ji Yuan, please be careful."

    Yun Chi had naturally recognized that the Great Demon God Hong Meng was in his most powerful form and even if Shui Xisi had a true divinity sword in her hand, she would still be massacred by the Great Demon God.

    Currently only Yun Chi had the capacity to help Ji Yuan but she was in a dilemma between helping Ji Yuan or to protect her unborn child.

    Ji Yuan naturally knows that Yun Chi was in her weaken state due to her pregnancy and that was why he did not want to involve her as he sought his vengeance against the Great Demon God for killing his beloved Jiajia.

    This was his way of protecting Yun Chi and his unborn daughter.

    This was also his way of protecting Xue Qianxue and Little Princess as well.

    Without turning his head back, Ji Yuan raised his right thumb up as he indicated well done to Yun Chi; this was all that he needed right now.

    The Great Demon God taunted Ji Yuan by smiling wryly, "Why don''t your reinforcements attack me together with you? I don''t mind at all. After all, it will be such a pity for them toe and then to stand aside."

    Ji Yuan said coldly, "I am enough to defeat you. It is because I know your weakness."

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "I will have a weakness? This is soudable."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he suddenly flickered his finger as he popped a profound pill into his mouth, "For example, you can''t regain your profound strength simply by popping a profound pill in the Celestial Realm. Nor can you cultivate your profound strength so readily as in the Immortal Realm. Therefore, I can make you pay with every use of your profound strength. Also¡­"

    He stared intently at the Great Demon God before he continued, "Also, I can sense that your cultivation core has a crack. If I am not wrong, then you have not fully recovered from the bacsh of the loss of your emperor-step divine sword in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    The Great Demon God frowned with great displeasure, "So, it was you that had destroyed my sword nurturing profound array inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth!"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softy, "So you have finally known."

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "You don''t get it, do you? I am the Great Demon God and I am able to muster my profound strength from the massive profound arrays of my Great Deste Divine Pce that I have setup. You can''t defeat me, why don''t you get it? Why are you being so stubborn?"

 Chapter 1193 The Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction

    Chapter 1193 The Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction

    Ji Yuan raised his divine sword as he answered coldly, "And why are you so stubbornly want to take over my Celestial Realm? What business does a true god have with a lower heavenly realm?"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "An ant like you won''t be able to understand the grand scheme of the cosmos.

    As the two of them had said that, they were already disying their profound arts against each other.

    The Great Demon God had disyed his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction once again while a golden burst of profound light had exploded from Ji Yuan''s ck true divinity sword.

    The sword art that Ji Yuan had disyed was his Ultimate Dividing One Sword, the one that he had awakened with his Sword Dao of Mncholy and the same profound sword art that had defeated the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian.

    Only when the Ultimate Dividing One Sword was unleashed was the Great Demon God had a shocked look on his face, "True divinity profound power?!"

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao was gasping with shock with this sudden disy from Ji Yuan.

    The profound energies from both the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction and the Ultimate Dividing One Sword immediately collided furiously against each other, sending even more powerful shockwaves that extended beyond the 10 mile radius, sweeping many of the cultivators off their feet and also sending many of the cultivators to cough out blood as well.

    Yun Chi immediately disyed her profound force to shelter Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei from the resulting shockwaves and the outpouring of profound energies.

    Barely 3 blinks of an eye had passed when the golden profound energies of Ji Yuan''s Ultimate Dividing One Sword overwhelmed the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction and it had exploded onto the Dark Demon God!

    The Dark Demon God was immediately flung off and knocked against the profound circle that he had created earlier.

    Such was the powerful outpouring of the golden profound energies that were upon the Great Demon God that it had even destroyed his dark animus that had lent him profound power and profound defense.

    Just as Ji Yuan had a soft sign of relief that he had ovee the Great Demon God, there was a mighty shout from the Great Demon God that dispelled the golden profound energies that were burning against him and he had unleashed another Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction against Ji Yuan!

    "You have greatly underestimated a true god! And you shall pay the price for your ego!"

    Ji Yuan was startled and shocked at the same time; it was because he was still paralyzed momentarily from using his Ultimate Dividing One Sword when it got dispelled halfway.

    And moreover, the Great Demon God was also able to react instantly after being knocked back.

    All these happened very fast.

    At the same time, this was actually Ji Yuan''s onlyst remaining trump card and he could not muster another Ultimate Dividing One Sword or Dividing One Sword anymore.

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei gasped softly as she immediately disyed the Divine Shield of the Goddess Ai Tina in front of Ji Yuan.

    The Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction was immediately upon the Divine Shield of the Goddess Ai Tina but it could onlyst two blinks of an eye before it was shattered even though it was an immortal artefact.

    This caused Xu Yifei to cough out blood immediately due to the severe bacsh that she had received when the Divine Shield of the Goddess Ai Tina was destroyed as she was soul bounded to it.

    The two blinks of an eye were enough for Ji Yuan to muster all his remaining profound aura to defend against the onughter of the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction but such was the profound power that was upon him that Ji Yuan was also flung off and knocked against the other end of the profound circle.

    Yun Chi, Xu Yifei and Shui Xisi were all gasping with shock, "Ji Yuan!!!"

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly as he tried to stand feebly, "I have won. Let my dark crimson mes consume your body, leaving only ashes. Not even your golden skeleton shall remain in its wake of destruction¡­"

    But barely had he said that, he was looking quite astonished when his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction had only consumed Ji Yuan''s golden aura and Ji Yuan was also feebly trying to pick himself up.

    The Great Demon God was furious as he mustered his profound power again as he unleashed another Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction upon Ji Yuan.

    This startled Ji Yuan as he was trembling all over. Even though the earlier Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction had not killed him but it had burnt his body badly. He was simply astonished that he did not melt in the fiery dark fire.

    But barely had he resisted the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction, the Great Demon God had suddenly unleashed another one of his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction!

    Shui Xisi had suddenly released Augustina her phoenix god beast in front of her to block the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction. "I''m sorry my friend. But I need you to help us¡­"

    There was a burning explosion upon Augustina as she shrieked loudly in the fiery dark fire of the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction. Even a 9th rank fire phoenix god beast was not enough to resist the profound might of a half-step true divinity like the Great Demon God.

    Although Augustina had blocked the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction but she was also severely wounded. If she was not a fire phoenix and strong in the element of fire, she would have been instantly killed by the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction.

    Also, without the dark demon spirit animus, the profound power of the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction was also weakened by half.

    But it could still deal easily with a 9th rank phoenix god beast.

    Such was the profound might of the Great Demon God when he had opened his third eye.

    Shui Xisi immediately retrieved Augustina back to her soul sea as she said tearfully, "Rest first, my friend. And thank you¡­"

    By now, both the Great Demon God and Ji Yuan had both picked themselves up as they stared coldly against each other.

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "My next Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction will surely kill you. You are already spent. I don''t believe that you can still survive my next profound attack."

    As he said that, the wounds on his body were already fast regenerating to the visible eyes.

    Ji Yuan coughed weakly as he said coldly, "Great Demon God, I don''t believe that you are not spent as well. How many times can you still use your Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction before you reach your 2/3 limit? Is this also yourst profound attack?"

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly as he raised his crimson divine sword once again to disy the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction. "It doesn''t matter because you are already spent."

    But instead of unleashing it upon Ji Yuan, he had suddenly unleashed it in the direction of Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei!

    This shocked Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei!

    Yun Chi was the most startled; it was because either Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei would be able to resist the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction or to evade it as it was a burning me of energies that enveloped a wide radius.

    She was the only one that could stop this profound attack but she would also end up losing her unborn child as well when the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction burnt into her body; her unborn child was too fragile and she won''t be able to survive the profound attack.

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "I want you to witness the death of your friends in front of your eyes first! Hahahaha!"

 Chapter 1194 The Infinity Malevolent Spears

    Chapter 1194 The Infinity Malevolent Spears

    When the Great Demon God had suddenly unleashed his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction in the direction of Yun Chi, Xu Yifei and Shui Xisi, Yun Chi had already mustered her profound aura to the 8th realm cultivation realm.

    This startled the Great Demon God when he had suddenly sensed that she was an immortal cultivator of the 8th realm cultivation and not merely a half-immortal cultivator like Ji Yuan.

    Yun Chi said firmly to Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei, "Stay behind me and don''t move!"

    Xu Yifei didn''t obey her and she had disyed a mystic circle in front of her and she said softly, "My Transference Circle will be able to help you divert some of the profound energies away."

    Yun Chi merely nodded as she prepared all her profound defense against the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction.

    Now all these had happened very fast and when Ji Yuan saw that the Great Demon God was attacking his maidens, he roared with great anger as he hastily tried to muster all his remaining profound strength to sh in the direction of Yun Chi; he can''t allow Yun Chi to tank this powerful profound attack of the Great Demon God as he knows how deadly it is.

    There was a curl in the countenance of the Great Demon God as he had already anticipated that Ji Yuan could try to help his maidens but his efforts would be in futile as he would then kill them all with his next move.

    All of a sudden, Ding Xiaoxiao had shed with great speed at the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction and she had dispelled it with her Sword Dao of the Medium Universe but she had also coughed out golden blood as she was flung backward.

    With Ji Yuan''s current condition, he was indeed slower than Ding Xiaoxiao and he had ended up catching her as she was being flung backward.

    Yun Chi gasped softly as she had not expected for Number 1 to have stepped in to help them.

    The Great Demon God was enraged, "Number 1! Why are you helping them?!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao quickly pushed Ji Yuan away before she stood upright to say, "Great Demon God, this is a fight that is between Ji Yuan and you. You shouldn''t have involved the others in this."

    The Great Demon God angrily said in his old voice, "I shouldn''t have involved the others?! They are inside my profound circle and they have intervened not once but twice in my fight against this Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Therefore, I have the right to kill them!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said coldly, "I don''t care for your reasons. They are weaker than you and therefore I won''t allow you to hurt them."

    The Great Demon God said angrily, "Number 1. Have you forgotten that you are on my side? And that you are honor bounded to do 1 more task for me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said indifferently, "I didn''t forget and I have been waiting for the day that you will ask me for thepletion of my third task and then my obligation to you will be over."

    "I am d that you didn''t forget about this," the Great Demon God mmed his crimson divine sword angrily on the ground.

    Yun Chi was perplexed why Ding Xiaoxiao would want to help them; this was not the Ding Xiaoxiao that she knows while she was the Death God Mingwang.

    But at the same time, she was quite relieved that her unborn child was protected.

    Ji Yuan had jumped in front of Ding Xiaoxiao and he was shouting angrily, "Great Demon God, our fight isn''t over yet!"

    The Great Demon God was still furious with Ding Xiaoxiao for interfering with his duel with Ji Yuan and he had once again raised the profound might of his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, this time round, you won''t be so lucky. I will surely kill you¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "No, you won''t be able to kill me this time. It is because you are getting slower and slower now."

    When he was still talking to Ji Yuan and mustering his profound strength to disy the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction, Ji Yuan had already disyed his Sacred Sword Pir with his true divinity sword as he sped his divine sword like a piecing sh of light toward the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan had already noticed that the Great Demon God was getting slower and slower as he used the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction; this immortal profound art may be powerful but it also consumed a great deal of the profound strength of the Great Demon God.

    Therefore, he had to attack fast.

    The Great Demon God immediately raised his crimson sword to block the piercing charge of Ji Yuan''s true divinity sword and he had abandoned the use of his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction.

    There was an explosive impact as the Great Demon God had blocked the speeding charge of Ji Yuan''s true divine sword.

    But all of a sudden Ji Yuan had thrown his immortal scabbard as he disyed it like another Sacred Sword Pir and he had aimed it into the hilt of his true divinity sword tobine it, causing it to look like a short spear.

    Ji Yuan''s purpose was to empower his true divinity sword, giving it double the charge power when he had thrown his immortal scabbard to support the impale of his true divinity sword.

    The powerfulbined sword energies charge of this ''short spear'' shattered the crimson divine sword that was used to block it and Ji Yuan''s ck true divinity sword pierced into one of the three hearts of the Great Demon God.

    Immediately the Great Demon God coughed out golden blood as he staggered backward, not believing that he could be injured by such ame sword art.

    His body was tougher than most profound beasts and he was also protected by his profound aura. He could not believe that his divine sword would shatter at this most crucial time!

    Ji Yuan was also staggering because he had used two Sacred Sword Pirs at the same time but he had continued to walk weakly toward the Great Demon God, forcing himself forward with every step.

    The Great Demon God said weakly, "If my divine sword didn''t break and if your sword isn''t a true divinity sword, you won''t be able to pierce my body with such an inferior profound art."

    Ji Yuan was actually using a miracle profound art but it was not an immortal profound art and therefore it was an inferior profound art in the eyes of the Great Demon God.

    "You still don''t understand why your divine sword will break, do you?" Ji Yuan said as he disyed his two broken emperor-step divine swords in both his hands. "That is because your Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction is too powerful and your divine sword can''t take the stress after you had used it a little too many times. Therefore, the final victory is mine now. It is because you are at your limit now."

    The Great Demon God smirked coldly, "You want to kill me with two broken divine swords? Are you kidding with me?"

    The broken swords that were in Ji Yuan''s hands had suddenly exploded with life force energies.

    "Life force energies?! You are burning your life force energies?"

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "At this point, I am already spent like you but unlike you, I have plenty of life force energies to burn."

    All of a sudden, the Great Demon God had disyed his dark profound aura and there were dozens of screams from the cultivators that were behind him.

    It was because the Great Demon God had disyed his Ultimate Evil Veins as he absorbed the profound strength of some of the cultivators that were behind him as he wasted their cultivation; he had secretly kept a trump card as ast resort by nting the Evil Veins on some of the selected cultivators. Now it was time for him to absorb their profound strength.

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly at Ji Yuan, "Do you think that I am spent like you?"

    Then he had shaped his dark profound aura into dozens of dark spears that were flying toward Ji Yuan!

    The Great Demon God smirked, "Although my Infinity Malevolent Spears is inferior to my Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction, it is still an immortal profound art and is more than enough to kill you!

    This startled Ji Yuan who was now cursing loudly with disbelief, "Damn you!"

 Chapter 1195 The Goddess Tear

    Chapter 1195 The Goddess Tear

    Xiang Li was suddenly on her knees in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea as she prayed, "If I am the Goddess Tear then I am willing to sacrifice myself to grant my Big Brother a victory over the Great Demon God. Right now, my Big Brothercks the profound strength to use his Dividing One Sword one more time. Let me be my Big Brother''s final sword against the Great Demon God."

    At this moment, Ji Yuan was in an intense battle against the Great Demon God and hence he was not aware of what Xiang Li was doing.

    Xiang Li could see that the slumbering bodies of Aura and Anyang floating on the golden inner spirit sea of Ji Yuan and she was sighing woefully, "I am the most useless here and can''t contribute to Big Brother''s battle. Let me sacrifice myself then for my Big Brother so that I can be useful for once in his heart¡­"

    As she said that, she was startled to see that a golden face with a veil had been formed from the almost depleted golden inner spirit sea that was below her.

    "Dream Mist? Why are you here?

    Xiang Li had recognized the shape of this likeness and the characteristic of this veil.

    The golden face said gently to her, "Xiang Li, we have met again. I am not Dream Mist. Dream Mist is but my avatar. I am the Great Beyond Goddess."

    Xiang Li was startled, "You are the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    The golden face slightly nodded, "That''s right. I am the Great Beyond Goddess. By right, you are not supposed to see or hear me. But it seems that you have broken free of my restrictive shackle that is on you and you are now a separated entity that also has some of my profound powers."

    Xiang Li said woefully, "I just want to help my Big Brother. Can you help me?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess sighed softly, "I can sense that you are going to sacrifice your life for Ji Yuan¡­ your Big Brother and that is why you are able to see me now. But you ought to wait for a little longer and you should not give up your life in vain. Or your Big Brother will be very sad and he will me himself."

    Xiang Li asked curiously, "I ought to have waited a little longer? But why? Big Brother don''t have any sword intentions or much profound strength anymore and he is burning his life force as profound energies now."

    The Great Beyond Goddess said, "Your Big Brother is the True Devil God''s reincarnation. This amount of life force won''t end his life so easily. In fact, his life force may be his greatest strength because he is the True Devil God and also, he has a strong willpower to live."

    Xiang Li pondered for a while, "Alright. I wait a little longer then."

    -

    -

    -

    Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei were all gasping with shock as the Great Demon God disyed his Infinity Malevolent Spears at a terrifying speed against Ji Yuan.

    Although Yun Chi had wanted to step forward to help Ji Yuan but Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao had turned to say to Yun Chi and the other two maidens, "This is their battle. Don''t force my hands to fight you because in the end, you still won''t be able to save Ji Yuan."

    Then she disyed a secret divine whisper into Yun Chi''s ears, "I know that you are the Death God Mingwang. In normal circumstances, I won''t be able to stop you but not only are you in a weaken state but I am also much stronger when I was in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    She was naturally stronger after she had realized her new sword domain when she was with Ji Yuan inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to divine whisper to Yun Chi, "Have you so little faith in Ji Yuan? Look at his eyes. He isn''t giving up his fight yet. Why don''t you wait and see? He is stronger than you think he is."

    She had seen these intense eyes from Ji Yuan when she was fighting with Ji Yuan. At that time, she had thought that Ji Yuan was just a fool to fight her.

    Yun Chi disyed a small frown but she stopped in her tracks and there was a perplexing look that was on her: Is this Ding Xiaoxiao helping the Great Demon God or Ji Yuan? Or is it because this is a honor duel between the Great Demon God and Ji Yuan?

    The reason why she was greatly perplexed was that earlier she had aided them in open defiant against the Great Demon God and now she was aiding the Great Demon God by preventing her from acting.

    Yun Chi quickly put her hand on Shui Xisi''s shoulder, "Don''t be rush. You aren''t Number 1''s match and you will only get yourself killed if you join in the battle."

    Shui Xisi was furious and it was true that she would recklessly join in the battle if it was not for Yun Chi''s restraining hand on her shoulder that had actually frozen her with her profound strength.

    The dozens of dark spears from the Great Demon God''s Infinity Malevolent Spears were speeding toward Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan was now slow too.

    He had used his life force energies to reform the shape of his two broken shattered emperor-step divine sword and then he had crossed his two divine swords to unleash his Grand Cross Profound Art, causing a brilliant white profound energies in the likeness of a cross to sweep over the dozens of dark spears.

    Instantly, his life force energies had dissipated all the dozens of dark spears and had even swept over the Great Demon God, causing him to cough out golden blood as the brilliant white profound energies exploded over him!

    It was so lethal that his left arm of the Great Demon God waspletely disintegrated by the life force energies as he used his hands to block the iing life force energies profound attack before he fell to the ground.

    The Great Demon God could not believe that his immortal profound art had lost to Ji Yuan''s life force energies profound attack.

    Then he tried to pull the ck true divinity sword that was struck in his left chest as he said weakly, "If it is not for this damn sword in my body, I would not have weakened to this state and has even lost my left arm."

    But no matter how much profound strength he had tried, he just could not pull the ck true divinity sword from his chest; it was because Little Yui was using her sentience to resist the profound might of the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan''s arms were both shaking now as he shouted, "Great Demon God. This is the end for you now!"

    Once again, he had mustered his life force energies into both of his divine swords as he attempted to channel enough of his life force energies into disying the Ultrapowerful Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon.

    He intended to muster all his remaining profound energies in his inner spiritual sea into this onest profound attack. It was either he died or the Great Demon God would die in this one final move.

    Ji Yuan could not move now as he was only depending on his life force energies to support himself as his wounds were extremely heavy after he was repeating burnt by the Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction that also prevented his injuries from regenerating.

    The Great Demon God was actually quite fearful now; it was because life force energies to his natural nemesis and it was preventing his wounds from regenerating. Moreover, his current state was not any better than Ji Yuan.

    So he shouted panicky to Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao, "Number 1¡­ Ding Xiaoxiao! Help me to kill all of them here! This is my thirdmand to you! Quick!"

    At this moment, Ji Yuan had disyed the profound energies of his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon in each of his hands. As he swung his divine two swords together, he had formed the Ultrapowerful Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as a powerful brilliant white light in the shape of a gigantic serpent exploded from Ji Yuan''s divine swords toward the Great Demon God!

    Ji Yuan shouted, "Die, Great Demon God!!!"

    All of a sudden, Ding Xiaoxiao had disyed her true divinity sword the Divine Ptine as well as her Sword Dao of the Universe Border as a ck halo surrounded as she used her sword energies topletely dissipated Ji Yuan''s Ultrapowerful Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon as she shed to intercept it.

    This stunned Ji Yuan who was now spent of everything.

    And this included Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei.

    Yun Chi was furious because she had just been tricked by this Ding Xiaoxiao not to intervene in the battle. Instead, this Ding Xiaoxiao had intervened in the battle.

    She had almost unsheathed her emperor-step divine sword in her furious rage to assume her identity as the Death God Mingwang.

    The hundreds of cultivators that were watching from far behind looked relieved that their Great Demon God was now safe and that Number 1 had now intervened.

    Some were even cheering loudly for the uing victory of the Great Demon God.

    The Great Demon God shouted angrily, "Number 1. What are you waiting for? Kill all of them for me! Show them the price of offending a true god of the Immortal Deste Realm!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao turned to the Great Demon God to say coolly, "I am afraid that I can''t. This is against my honor to do so."

    The Great Demon God said furiously, "What do you mean by that this is against your honor to do so? Have you forgotten you have to do 3 things for me?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao said, "I remembered. And I also remembered that these 3 things cannot be against my honor. This Ji Yuan that you are trying to kill¡­"

    Then she looked a little flustered before she continued softly, "This Ji Yuan is my lord and I am his maiden. Therefore, I can''t kill my lord. This is against my honor."

    When she had said this, not only was the Great Demon God stunned but all the cultivators including Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei were also stunned by her revtions.

    "He is your lord?! When?!" The Great Demon God was stunned.

    Ji Yuan was also stunned because he had thought that Ding Xiaoxiao hadpletely forgotten about him and she had even intercepted his profound attack.

    Yun Chi stared with shock at Ji Yuan and Ding Xiaoxiao; it was because she had mocked Ji Yuan when he had told her that Ding Xiaoxiao was his maiden and she hadughed that Ji Yuan was only daydreaming about it.

    Ding Xiaoxiao continued to say to the Great Demon God, "However, my debt to you has already been repaid. It is because I have just saved your life. This is what I have owed to you."

 Chapter 1196 The Great Demon Gods final Trump Card

    Chapter 1196 The Great Demon God''s final Trump Card

    Ding Xiaoxiao said to the Great Demon God Hong Meng, "You''ve lost. If you are wise enough, you ought to leave the Celestial Realm."

    The Great Demon God hummed coldly to Ding Xiaoxiao, "Very well. It seems that I''ve lost this game of chess for now. I will remember what you''ve done, Ding Xiaoxiao. Next time when we meet again, we shall be enemies."

    Ji Yuan shouted over to Ding Xiaoxiao, "What if I still want to kill the Great Demon God? Maiden Xiaoxiao, will you stop me?"

    He had to make the Great Demon God pay for killing his Jiajia!

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked Ji Yuan instead, "I''ve changed the third agreement with the Great Demon God to protect his life. Therefore, I will safeguard his life for today. Ji Yuan, do you want to fight me?"

    Then she said tenderly to him, "I can sense the rage that is in your heart but for my sake, can you spare the Great Demon God for today? Even if I don''t intervene, it is quite impossible for you to kill him in your current condition. At most, you will still end up sending him back to the Immortal Deste Realm."

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily; indeed, Ding Xiaoxiao was right. Actually, he was already spent from fighting against the Great Demon God while the Great Demon God still had the profound strength as he needed to maintain 1/3 of his cultivation strength in order to stay in the Celestial Realm. If he pushes his luck with the Great Demon God too much then he may end up being killed instead.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was actually trying to help him by forcing the Great Demon God to retreat back to the Immortal Deste Realm.

    She could not kill the Great Demon God but she had intercepted Ji Yuan''sst profound attack in order to fulfil her obligation to the Great Demon God.

    As long as she was here, the Great Demon God would not be able to pull any tricks to hurt him and his maidens that were here; it was because Ding Xiaoxiao would see to that and she was able to force the Great Demon God to ept her terms in his current weakened state.

    With a great sigh, Ji Yuan said rather unwillingly. "Alright then. So be it."

    The Great Demon Godughed coldly, "To think that my grand scheme will be folded by this Sword Saint Ji Yuan. I really can''t believe it. I really can''t believe it¡­"

    It was not just the Great Demon God that could not believe this but Yun Chi as well.

    By right, Ji Yuan still won''t have the sufficient strength to defeat the Great Demon God even if he is the True Devil God''s reincarnation as there is still a disparity in their cultivation strength and realm.

    They did not know that when Ji Yuan had returned from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he had also gained the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    With this newly gained strength from the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and his inspiration from the Greater Dao of the Heavens, he was able to use the Golden Natal Divine Pearl as his source of profound strength and had even attained the Golden Invincible Body, making it hard for the Great Demon God to kill him with his Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction.

    The Great Demon God turned to Ji Yuan as he said coldly, "If our fight continues, you may not live in your current state but I will be forced to return to my immortal realm too. Although I may be leaving soon but I ought to warn you that the Death God Mingwang is still lurking in the Celestial Realm. He is a true god like me as well and he is an expert in assassinations. Who knows if he is actually lurking nearby just to end your life. Hahahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan wasughing too, "I''m not afraid of the Death God Mingwang. Even if there are 10 Death God Mingwang, I am not afraid. And I think the reason why the Death God Mingwang isn''t here is because he fears me. Hahaha¡­"

    Naturally he is not afraid of the Death God Mingwang because Yun Chi is the Death God Mingwang and she is pregnant with his child.

    Yun Chi secretly cursed Ji Yuan: You don''t fear me, do you? I will settle this score with youter. You have better not cry for mercyter.

    All of a sudden the Great Demon God had shed up to the heavens in a brilliant sh of white light, leaving behind Ji Yuan''s true divinity sword and immortal scabbard behind.

    And there was a coldughter from the heavens, "We shall meet again. That is, if you are all still alive."

    The Great Demon God was now returning to the Immortal Deste Realm!

    The hundreds of cultivators that were left behind, including some of the lesser Numbers were all shocked that the Great Demon God had lost to the Sword Saint Ji Yuan and had even abandoned them.

    Right now, they were all confused if they should attack the Sword Saint Ji Yuan or not.

    They were more afraid of Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao the White Lily than the Sword Saint Ji Yuan.

    But all of a sudden, the entire Great Deste Divine Pce was rocking violently and arge red profound array could be seen enveloping all over the ce.

    The profound voice of the Great Demon God could be heardughing, "You got but 10 blinks of an eye before the Great Deste Divine Pce exploded like the burning sun. You won''t be able to escape or survive because the explosion covers 100 miles and is 100 times more powerful than my Dark Crimson Fire of Destruction. Number 1, wee back to the Deste Immortal Realm. Hahahaha¡­"

    There were 3 lesser Numbers that were among the hundreds of cultivators. When they had heard that the entire Great Deste Divine Pce was going to explode, they immediately shed up to the heavens in a sh of brilliant white light to escape theing cmity.

    They had literally abandoned the hundreds of celestial cultivators in this ce.

    There were also 10 deste immortals among the hundreds of cultivators. With no time to even fly to the edge as the Great Deste Divine Pce were a ten mile wide floating citadel fortress, all of them were forced to speed up to the heaven with a brilliant sh of white light.

    Only by returning to the immortal realm would they sped up out harm''s way by entering into another spatial space of the heavens.

    Ding Xiaoxiao was shocked as she stared nkly at Ji Yuan; she did not want to abandon Ji Yuan to his death by leaving for the Immortal Deste Realm herself.

    Ji Yuan was also shocked as he cursed the Great Demon God loudly, "Darn you, stupid old goat! So this is your final trump card?!"

    He quickly shouted to the rest, including Ding Xiaoxiao. "Come into my skull ring. If my skull ring does not get destroy then we may all survive this¡­"

    "Everyone,e into my Traverse Transference Divine Array. I can take all of you back to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect." Xu Yifei was also calling out to everyone as she disyed a white profound circle around her.

    Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish as he suddenly pulled Ding Xiaoxiao along with him toward the profound circle that Xu Yifei had created while muttering weakly, "This is actually a better suggestion."

    Xu Yifei quicklypleted the Traverse Transference Divine Array just in time to take away Ji Yuan, Ding Xiaoxiao, Yun Chi and Shui Xisi with herself just as the entire Great Deste Divine Pce exploded like a zing sun in a 100 mile radius, destroying the Great Deste Divine Pce and the 100 profound ships that apanied it.

    More than 30 000 evil cultivators perished in this zing explosion that shook the surroundings with its profound shockwaves and the explosion could be seen even from the mountains of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

 Chapter 1197 The Triumphant Return

    <h4>Chapter 1197 The Triumphant Return</h4>

    The Pentecost Mountains, at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Thousands of cultivators had gathered panicky outside the buildings of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect when a bright explosion was seen from thousands of miles away.

    This bright explosion was so brilliant that shockwaves of its profound energies could be felt throughout the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the surrounding vicinity, shocking many.

    And this bright explosion did not even not cease when it exploded but continued to burn like a secondary sun but it was bigger and brighter than any sun.

    Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess stormed out panicky together as they were having a meeting on a general strategy as they gasped, "We are under an attack?"

    In another pce building; Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Ling Tianshui were seen rushing out panicky together as they were managing the troublesome cultivation sect''s affairs.

    They were followed by Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and Shui Qingqing as they were all chatting together in the hall when the explosion had suddenly urred. As a matter of fact, they were all talking about Ji Yuan and how bad he was in leaving them alone while he had gone off to fight the Great Demon God. This group was just gossiping about Ji Yuan.

    The other main group was the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alissa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia as they panicky sped to the outside of their temporary pce when they had heard of the sudden explosion and the shockwaves of this profound energies were massive!

    "The Great Demon God has attacked?!" The Great Immortal Rohan gasped with great fear as he asked the Goddess Alyssa. "Just as I''ve thought, this Sword Saint Ji Yuan isn''t even considered to be an opponent of the Great Demon God. We ought to flee sooner thanter."

    The Goddess Alyssa stared at the residue of the explosion that left behind a burning sun in the horizon, "This may be a secret weapon of the Great Demon God. Although this explosion is far away and is thousands of miles away, we can still feel it. I am afraid that the surrounding vicinity of this explosion is now being grinded turned into ashes. Nothing will live in that profound explosion, not even a true god. This Ji Yuan is surely dead for sure."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia asked with a startled look, not believing that Ji Yuan was now dead. "Maybe it is a battle between the Great Demon God and the Death God Mingwang? And one of them exploded their cultivation core?"

    The Goddess Alyssa shook her head, "This is bigger than the self-detonation of a true god."

    "Maybe it is the self-detonation of two true gods?" The Immortal Fairy Lucia sighed woefully. "Maybe it is the Sword Saint Ji Yuan that forces them into this state?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan was amused by the Immortal Fairy Lucia''s words, "Your conclusion doesn''t make any sense at all. That Sword Saint Ji Yuan won''t survive even against one true god. If there are two true gods, he won''t even know how he would die. Are you hoping that the Sword Saint Ji Yuan would be able to win?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia disyed a flushed look, "It isn''t that. I am hoping that the Sword Saint Ji Yuan may be able to win so that our immortal race will be able to avert this cmity."

    "In any case, the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead." The Goddess Alyssa said quietly. "So it is now time for us to leave this ce now. Or else it will be difficult to leaveter since the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead and there is no one left to distract the Great Demon God. So much for this temporary alliance."

    The Great Immortal Rohan nodded, "Let''s go. The Great Demon God will be here in no time. I don''t want to die. I''ve already created the lookalike puppets of ourselves. Let these celestial cultivators be our cannon fodders while we flee."

    Then he said to the Immortal Fairy Lucia as he looked at her enticing figure and beautiful face, "Fairy Lucia, you ought toe with us too. Don''t worry, I''ll take care of you from now onward. Heehee¡­"

    In the meantime, the rest of Ji Yuan''s maidens had also gathered together and many of them were in tears.

    It was because they had all concluded that Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei must have all perished in this huge profound explosion that was in the sky and they were weeping loudly.

    The thousands of cultivators were also in great despair when they saw that their leaders were weeping aloud.

    This only mean one thing to them and that is that Ji Yuan is now dead.

    The Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead!

    Wailing cries of despairs, mourning andmentations began to reach out to the heavens from the thousand of cultivators who had all given up hope on defeating the Great Demon God.

    All of a sudden, a bright white profound circle had suddenly appeared on the tform and the spatial space was shifted in that ce. Then five shadowy figures began to step out from this profound circle which had shifted the 5 of them in this ce.

    Many were shocked when they saw a portal was opening right before their own eyes.

    "The Great Demon God is here?!"

    "We are doomed?!"

    "They are here so fast?!"

    Even the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had turned ashen as they never thought that the Great Demon God would tear through the fabrics of space to teleport right into their midst.

    This type of profound teleportation was a high level immortal cultivation that only a few immortals would be able to know and even mastered.

    If it was not the Great Demon God, then who was it?

    That was also what Ji Yuan''s maidens had thought so as well when the profound circle had suddenly appeared and they had never really seen Xu Yifei using it.

    Xu Yifei had actually used her Traverse Transference Divine Array only when she was traveling to the Celestial Realm.

    At that time, she waspletely exhausted after she had used it due to the vast distances that she had to travel between the heavenly realms of her Divine Spirit Realm and the Celestial Realm.

    But luckily for now, it was only for a short distance of a few thousand miles and she was able to bring additional people with her.

    The effort to do so, was still quite exhausting for her and that was why she had a weary look as she stepped out of the white profound circle.

    Also, appearing with her was Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Many of the cultivators did not recognize who Ding Xiaoxiao was but Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shui Qingqing had turned pale almost immediately because they had recognized Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao as the one that had almost killed them.

    The Great Immortal Rohan, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and the Goddess Alyssa were all shocked to see that Ji Yuan was still alive but they were even more shocked to see Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao with Ji Yuan.

    The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa cursed Ji Yuan almost at the same time, "This Ji Yuan has actually betrayed us to the Great Demon God and has brought Number 1 back here to ughter all of us!"

    The reason why they were all cursing Ji Yuan at the same time was because they could not believe that Number 1 would betray the Great Demon God as she was renowned for her great loyalty toward him.

    Many of the thousands of cultivators were thinking that they may be seeing a ghost when Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared.

    The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were all shocked to see Ji Yuan but they were also delighted at the same time to see himing back with their mistress Yun Chi.

    "Ji Yuan! Mistress!"

    Tang Manni gasped, "Sister Yifei, you are back¡­"

    Shui Qingqing was weeping halfway when she saw her Matriarch Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan were now back and her emotions had change to weeping tears of happiness instead.

    There were great confusions and mix emotions as Ji Yuan stepped out of the white profound circle.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at everyone that was all crowding around his group, "What? Are you not surprise to see me?"

    Ling Feiyue stammered as she seized to ask, "Ji Yuan, you are¡­ alive? And what is that explosion?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "Isn''t this obvious? I have defeated the Great Demon God and has sent him packing back to his Deste Immortal Realm."

    Ji Yuan''s words stunned everyone, his maidens and the most stunned was naturally the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa who did not think that he would be able to win against the Great Demon God!

    Even the Immortal Fairy Lucia was also stunned but she was also looking with great coquettishly at Ji Yuan. If it was not for the thousands of cultivators that were all crowding around Ji Yuan, she would have jumped into his embrace to offer him her congrattions for his victory.

    Ji Yuan''s words stunned everyone and there was great general disbelief.

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu could not resist asking, "You aren''t joking, am I right?"

    She was actually echoing the thoughts of Ji Yuan''s maidens here and even many of the cultivators.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do I look like I am joking?"

    Yun Chi said with some awkwardness to the Lovely Empress, "Ji Yuan has indeed defeated the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce. They are no longer a threat anymore."

    Even Shui Xisi was nodding as she chuckled softly, "We have won! We have defeated the Great Demon God!"

    Ji Yuan immediately turned to her to frown with a yful look, "It is me, not you. I have won!"

    Shui Xisi immediately kicked Ji Yuan down the tform, "Without our help, you won''t be able to defeat the Great Demon God, stupid hero. And we have just saved your ass. Why don''t you die now, Ji Yuan?"

    In Ji Yuan''s weaken state and moreover he could not really move too well, he was kicked down and crashed t onto the ground that was below the tform.

    Yun Chi smiled to Shui Xisi, "I guess that you have killed our hero now."

    Shui Xisi protested immediately, "He won''t die from a fall. I don''t know what he is made of but he is a tough nut to crack."

    Ji Yuan murmured weakly as hey on the ground, "I will settle this score with youter, Sisi¡­"

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens including Shui Qingqing were all panicky surrounded Ji Yuan to help him up and to shower him with all kinds of affections much to the displeasure of Shui Xisi as she muttered, "It is only a small fall. I didn''t use any force and it is not like he will die. Why are you all so concern for him about?"

 Chapter 1198 Ji Yuans Epic Story Busted

    Chapter 1198 Ji Yuan''s Epic Story Busted

    "Ji Yuan! You have returned alive?!"

    "Maiden Xu Yifei brought you back¡­"

    "Ji Yuan, you have really defeated the Great Demon God? How is it possible?"

    "The others are also back with you¡­"

    "Please tell us what had happened¡­"

    Ji Yuan''s maidens that were left behind were all jostling at him and poking him to see if he was real.

    "I really can''t believe that the Great Demon God has been defeated. What happened to the evil cultivators? You have also defeated them?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he said to all of them, "Of course! I have aplete victory over the evil cultivators as well. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had shed forward to Ji Yuan.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was calling out for Ji Yuan, "Great Saint Ji Yuan! The maiden in white that you have rescued, is Number 1! She is also the right hand sword of the Great Demon God! Be careful of her!"

    When he had shouted this warning to Ji Yuan, the thousands of cultivators that were around were all rmed.

    Some of Ji Yuan''s maidens were also rmed.

    Shangguan Yan was also whispering to Ji Yuan, "She is a very dangerous maiden. My lord, be careful of her."

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud as he jumped next to Ding Xiaoxiao and caught hold of her waist as he said to everyone, "She isn''t Number 1. She is Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao, my new confidant. Hahaha¡­"

    Yun Chi was stunned when she saw that Ji Yuan was holding onto Ding Xiaoxiao''s waist: They are really together?! When? How? Ding Xiaoxiao actually allows her to hold her waist?!

    She had to believe it because Ding Xiaoxiao had dered to the Great Demon God that she was Ji Yuan''s maiden and that he was her lord.

    If she had not heard with her own ears, she would not have believed it to be true.

    When the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and some other immortals that hade with the Great Immortal Rohan saw that Ji Yuan was holding onto Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao''s waist, they were greatly rmed.

    It was because they were half-expecting Ji Yuan''s hands to be chopped off by Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao for daring to hold her waist in public.

    In fact, they could see that Ding Xiaoxiao was staring coldly at Ji Yuan.

    She was staring coldly at Ji Yuan while whispering to him, "Do you have to hold my waist in public? Aren''t you taking advantage of me?"

    As a matter of fact, Ji Yuan''s fingers were indeed stroking her tender waist.

    Ji Yuan whispered to her without looking at her as he maintained a grin in front of the others, "If I don''t hold you then they won''t believe that you are my maiden. I am merely trying to protect you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao whispered, "You can hold my waist but do you have to move your dirty fingers on me?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to say, "After my battle with the Great Demon God, my fingers are still trembling and I can''t control my fingers."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    The Great Immortal Rohan was still shouting frantically to Ji Yuan, "Sword Saint Ji Yuan, trust me. She is extremely dangerous. She is trying to infiltrate us."

    Ji Yuan frowned with piercing look upon the Great Immortal Rohan, "Nono. She isn''t Number 1 or our enemy. Brother Rohan, do I need to repeat myself?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan was startled when he saw Ji Yuan''s piercing look and he had suddenly realized Ji Yuan''s hidden meaning in his message.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Maybe she is a lookalike to Number 1 but she isn''t. In fact, she is our mole to thwart the ns of the Great Demon God."

    The Great Immortal Rohan got Yun Chi''s hint and he quickly said aloud, "Right. She is indeed a lookalike. After taking a careful look, she isn''t Number 1. Hahahaha¡­"

    Even the Goddess Alyssa was smiling bitterly, "That''s right. She isn''t Number 1. It is our mistake."

    Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue asked Ji Yuan at the same time, "Ji Yuan, how did you defeat the Great Demon God? Why don''t you tell us?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to sigh heavily, "Well. It is a long story¡­"

    Ling Feiyue rolled her beautiful golden eyes sheepishly as she interrupted him, "Make it short."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Well. As all of you know, I went ahead to confront the Great Demon God on my own. After flying for almost 20 hours, I was exhausted from flying and then I saw the Evil Cultivation Pce and at least 500 profound ships that were also appearing into view. I was utterly shocked!"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes inside Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea when she had heard him; it was because he was not exhausted from flying. Also, he was not shocked when he saw the Evil Cultivation Pce and that he had almost more than double the size of the profound ships that he had encountered.

    Ji Yuan said aloud while also sighing heavily, "I didn''t find the Great Demon God because the Great Demon God isn''t in the Evil Cultivation Pce. Rather, I''ve encountered Number 3 and Number 5 instead. They were the vanguard fleet that was sent to attack the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect¡­"

    "In the end, even though I was drained and exhausted, I had to give battle. My battle with the Evil Cultivation Pce and the 600 profound ships were earthshaking to say the least¡­"

    Xiang Li rolled her eyes again; it was because Ji Yuan had just added an extra 100 profound ships.

    Even Shui Xisi was rolling her eyes as she could not resist an interruption, "Howe you never die and is still kicking?"

    Ji Yuan ignored her remarks as he continued, "I had almost died from my battle against Number 3 and Number 5. But I remembered that I have to protect all of you from the Great Demon God and hence, I had to keep on fighting these two powerful foes as well as braving the hundreds of profound cannons that were hitting me nonstop¡­."

    Many of the maidens were looking sheepishly when Ji Yuan described he had been hit by hundreds of profound cannons.

    Yun Chi was thinking: Not even a true god can survive hundreds of those big profound cannons. I know that you are trying to impress the gullible but this is a little too exaggerating.

    Shui Xisi was thinking of firing a profound cannon from her profound ship to see if Ji Yuan was able to survive it.

    Ding Xiaoxiao casually interrupted Ji Yuan, "You don''t look exhausted and the profound cannons did not even hit you. I saw your battle in the profound imagery."

    She had seen Ji Yuan''s battle against Number 3 and Number 5 in a profound imagery while she was in the Great Deste Divine Pce.

    In fact, the Great Demon God and many others had all viewed Ji Yuan''s battle against Number 3 and Number 5 as he appeared.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm, profound imagery can''t capture everything. Your profound imagery probably has a blind spot. Trust me."

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    All of a sudden, the heavens above the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect had turned golden, startling everyone!

    It was as though a portal was opening up!

    Ji Yuan was startled too but he was also d to have an interruption to save him from his awkwardness of answering Ding Xiaoxiao.

    At the same time, he also got more time to make his battle with Number 3 and Number 5 more exciting to his listeners.

    Yun Chi was gasping along with the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa, "I am sensing the appearance of a powerful presence¡­"

    Ji Yuan had heard Yun Chi and he was startled, "The Great Demon God is back?"

    Yun Chi shook her head as she whispered to Ji Yuan, "The Great Demon God can''t return so quickly and moreover, I don''t think he can even return at all. This presence is even more powerful than the Great Demon God."

    The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa also had the same conclusion as Yun Chi as they watched the clouds in the heaven turned golden in color.

 Chapter 1199 The Great Beyond Goddess (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1199 The Great Beyond Goddess (1)</h4>

    The golden clouds continued to stir rapidly it kept ballooning rapidly.

    The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were both looking quite ashen; this was a powerful presence that they had never known before. In fact, many of the weaker immortals like the Immortal Fairy Lucia was shivering with great fear.

    Even Ding Xiaoxiao and Yun Chi were trembling slightly as the golden clouds thickened.

    Ji Yuan was astonished to see their expressions and asked Ding Xiaoxiao and Yun Chi, "What''s wrong?"

    As he was standing quite far away from the Goddess Alyssa and the Great Immortal Rohan due to the many thousands that were blocking between them, he had failed to notice that they had the same expression as Ding Xiaoxiao and Yun Chi too.

    That was why earlier, the Great Immortal Rohan had to shout across to Ji Yuan to warn him. Although he could fly to Ji Yuan but it would be too rude and too disrespectful to Ji Yuan.

    But the main reason was that he dared not go too near to Ding Xiaoxiao and flying would only put him as a more prominent target for her.

    The same was for the Goddess Alyssa as well.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia had wanted to go near to Ji Yuan upon his triumphant return but her shyness had kept her from doing so. Therefore, she could only bit her small cherry lips with great regrets.

    There was another beautiful maiden that was also full of regrets but it was for apletely different reason and she was Ruan Songci; she had failed to obtain the most juiciest part of Ji Yuan''s great victory over the Great Demon God and she was full of regrets.

    At this moment, she could only record''s Ji Yuan words into her memory stone but this news won''t be worth too much to her Mystic Eye Sect and to her own advancement within the Mystic Eye Sect.

    At this moment, she was also frantically writing in her small notebook: Ji Yuan fought against the 800rge profound ships of the Evil Cultivation Pce and he was almost killed by the thousands of profound cannons that he was being forced to tank. It was a miracle that he had survived. Only by his sheer willpower did he pull himself up again and again¡­

    She was also thinking: No harm in writing some exaggerations. Maybe my elders will reward me for all these information that the others are not able to obtain. This may be exclusive news¡­

    All of a sudden she had heard the maiden that was behind whispering to the other maiden, "s. I wish that I could be Sword Saint Ji Yuan''s consort. Then I will be able to hear his epic tales all the time¡­"

    "Me too," the other maiden that was listening was alsomenting.

    All of a sudden, a startled bolt of light struck Ruan Songci as she gasped with a sudden realization: Why am I so stupid? If I am the Sword Saint Ji Yuan''s maiden, then won''t I have all his untold epic stories? Then I may be even be made into an elder immediately¡­

    She did not know that Ji Yuan''s stories often have lots of water in it; it was because Ji Yuan had actually fought in numerous duels that he had even forgotten exactly how many duels he had fought before he had be a saint. And then he would drink with his random brothers as they shared their ''epic'' recounting of their fights.

    Even a 3 hour duel would be a 3 day duel when recounted by Ji Yuan.

    Now, drunk or not, he had got into a bad habit of exaggerating his fights in front of the others.

    While most of the cultivation heroes in the cultivation stories would not try to mention how many people that they had killed to avoid being looked upon as bloodthirsty by the readers and to maintain their heroic self as a future savior, Ji Yuan was exactly like an arrogant young master that would boast to his friends and brothers about his feat.

    This was quite evident when Ji Yuan was inside a trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as he tried to rewrite his own version of the cultivation story.

    Although his stories were watery but it was undeniable that he was a Sword Saint and a real fighter.

    Ruan Songci was now looking at Ji Yuan with great interest now and she was suddenly startled how beautiful and heroic he really was. It was as though she was being struck by a cupid arrow as she began to see Ji Yuan in a new light that she had never thought before and her heartbeat was beating rapidly.

    She thought: I am supposed to be in his harem, right? The Great Immortal Rohan had presented me to him¡­

    Ruan Songci was actually inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and had just recently returned with some regrets; her memory stone won''t work inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and she could not reveal the details of her trials inside as well.

    But barely had she returned, she was captured by the evil cultivators.

    But fortunately for her, her Mystic Eye Sect had made a secret agreement with the Evil Cultivation Pce to sell them ssified information and she was spared from any torture or mistreatment.

    Just as she had thought that she was safe, she was informed by the evil cultivators that she would be given to the Sword Saint Ji Yuan as his maiden.

    This shocked her and she had wept bitterly that her fate was as woeful as the other captured maidens.

    But this Sword Saint did not touch her or vite her. Instead, he had given everyone a choice of leaving his ''harem'' or to fight with him.

    When she saw the many beautiful maidens of this Ji Yuan, including the three great beauties of the Deste Celestial Fraternity that were with him, she had thought that he was nothing but a lecherous cultivator.

    Her mind was now trying to paint Ji Yuan as heroic and not a lecherous cultivator.

    However, Ji Yuan was no doubt a lecherous cultivator and he had a high standard when hees to choosing his maidens.

    Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted when a great oppressing awe had suddenly surfaced from the golden clouds.

    The higher realm cultivators like Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao, the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and the other immortals were all able to sense an oppressing aura that was approaching and they were all trembling.

    Now that this oppressing awe had surfaced, the thousands of cultivators were so shocked and overwhelmed by it that they were now on their knees.

    All the cultivators except for the great saint cultivators and above were spared from this oppressing awe that caused their legs to grow weak.

    Arge golden outline of a face with a veil had suddenly appeared from the golden clouds and a feminine voice echoed in her profound voice, "I am the Great Beyond Goddess."

    Ding Xiaoxiao, Yun Chi, the Immortal Fairy Lucia, the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa and all the others were all shocked; it was because the Great Beyond Goddess had never been known to manifest to anyone and only leaving her Goddess Tear as a hope to the lower realm cultivators so that they won''t be totally be suppressed by the immortals or from the powerful evil cultivators.

    Ji Yuan was also startled, "The Great Beyond Goddess?!"

    He was the only one that was not trembling because he had never known fear before, not even when he was a first realm cultivator facing a seventh realm cultivator.

    The reason for Ji Yuan''s fearlessness was because he was the True Devil God''s reincarnated and he would not bow to anyone since he was a first generation true god.

    But right now, he was a little afraid.

    It was because he had run into a conflict with Dream Mist and he had even identally kissed her and embraced her.

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Yun Chi, Feng Minyue, Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Shui Xisi were all shocked as well by the sudden appearance of the Great Beyond Goddess; they had adventured with Dream Mist for a while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and they had personally witnessed her profound might.

    Yun Chi was gasping with shock at the suddenly promation of the golden outline in the golden heavens above, "Why is the Great Beyond Goddess here¡­"

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "I may have identally offended the Great Beyond Goddess for sure¡­"

    He was beginning to regret how he had exaggerated his epic story with the Great Demon God even though he had not exactly retold about that part yet.

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan was on his knees and this included Ding Xiaoxiao, Yun Chi, the Great Immortal Rohan and all the immortals too!

    It was because as the golden outline of the Great Beyond Goddess became even more prominent, the oppressing awe was so overwhelming that even they had to kneel in front of the Great Beyond Goddess!

    Only those that had kneeled were spared from the oppressing awe that were sapping their profound strength rapidly and everyone could feel a formidable force that was sweeping over them and knocking everyone down!

    Xu Yifei gasped softly to herself as she kneeled, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress, you are here?"

    Xiang Li was also muttering softly in Ji Yuan''s inner spirtual sea: The Great Beyond Goddess...

 Chapter 1200 The Great Beyond Goddess (2)

    Chapter 1200 The Great Beyond Goddess (2)

    When the golden outline of the Great Beyond Goddess had appeared, everyone was forced to bend on the ground and had to use their hands to support themselves due to the oppressing pressure that was sweeping upon everyone.

    Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were both secretly whispering to Ji Yuan, "Since you keep saying that you are the True Devil God, then this time you are surely dead¡­"

    It was not without reason that they were saying this to Ji Yuan.

    It was because these two maidens along with Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng were with Ji Yuan in the Goddess Star Pce and they saw the canvas imageries on the ceiling that were in each room; the canvas imageries had almost all depicted an eternal battle between the True Devil God and the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Therefore, they had reasons to believe that the Great Beyond Goddess was here today to kill the True Devil God Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan who was the only one who could decipher the true meanings of the canvas imagery in the Goddess Star Pce whispered back to them, "I don''t think it is the real reason¡­"

    The real reason was because he had dared to kiss Dream Mist and even touched her.

    Another reason was probably because he had freed Old Reverend Beiyuan and Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing from the Star Goddess Pce. Because of this, he had offended the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Shui Xisi reminded him by whispering, "And you have stolen the true divinity sword of the True Devil God from the Goddess Star Pce."

    Ji Yuan covered his face with great awkwardness.

    Come to think of that, he seemed to have offended the Great Beyond Goddess in many ways.

    The Lovely Empress whispered, "We are not supposed to enter the Goddess Star Pce too as that ce isn''t the trial area."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that was the trial that he had ranked at the bottom, resulting in his worse result ever in the trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    He muttered weakly, "Don''t remind me of this."

    He had decided to rewrite that part in his biography if he survived today''s encounter with the Great Beyond Goddess. This was too awkward to his face that he had actually rankedst in the trial. But then, he was not supposed to be able to write his trial details anyway so no one would really know if he scoredst or first.

    While Ji Yuan and his maidens together with the Great Immortal Rohan and his group were guilty about facing the Great Beyond Goddess as they were afraid of a possible heavenly cmity that would happen to them out of the blue, most of themon cultivators were actually feeling quite excited as they had never heard of the Great Beyond Goddess appearing in the Celestial Realm before; to them, this was a historical event and they viewed it mostly as a good sign.

    However, there were also many of themon cultivators that had made an oath in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess as witness and they were now feeling extremely guilty.

    As a matter of fact, they could feel that their cultivation cores were cracking up because of their false oaths and the sudden appearance of the Great Beyond Goddess had caused their false oaths to experience a terrible bacsh in their cultivation core.

    A celestial cultivator had suddenly died; he was an elder of a minor cultivation sect and he had sworn to his sect leader in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess just yesterday that he had never betrayed any secrets of his cultivation sect while he was taken prisoner.

    He was quickly followed by the deaths of several more cultivators that had sworn by the name of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    "They made a false oath in the name of the Great Beyond Goddess and hence their cultivation core is now suffering a severe bacsh¡­"

    Ji Yuan gulped as he frantically tried to remember if he had made a false oath by any chance.

    The Great Beyond Goddess''s profound voice was now echoing with a soft sigh, "Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled as the Great Beyond Goddess was specially naming him and his throat ran dry.

    She continued, "Ji Yuan, thanks to you that the diabolic ns of the Great Demon God to take over the Celestial Realm has been foiled. The way to the celestial immortal realm is once again opened¡­"

    The celestial immortal realm was naturally referring to the Nine Heavens or the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

    "Your Celestial Realm is under the judication of your Celestial Immortals or the Pangu Immortals of the Nine Heavens. By right, I should not have manifested here and moreover, I am bounded to my Great Beyond Realm. This manifestation that you are seeing now is merely my spirit projection¡­"

    Yun Chi was thinking: In the past, I''ve thought that the Great Beyond Goddess is probably at the peak of the 10th Immortal Realm. I was so wrong after I had witnessed Dream Mist manifested the profound power of the Great Beyond Goddess. If the Great Beyond Goddess really descends, even a half-step true divinity like myself won''t be able to take it. Just her spirit projection is enough to suppress me sopletely¡­

    Ji Yuan was also thinking: What is her cultivation realm again? 12th realm? What type of cultivation realm is the 12th realm? I can''t even imagine the 10th or the 11th realm cultivation¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued to echo, "But today I will be making an exception for you, Ji Yuan by manifesting here today because you are after all, my grand prot¨¦g¨¦¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled: The Great Beyond Goddess has actually acknowledged me?!

    Old Reverend Beiyuan was his cheap master after he had helped him to escape from the Goddess Star Pce.

    The thousands of cultivators that had gathered were also greatly startled and this included the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and many other immortals; they were all startled and shocked that Ji Yuan is the grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess!

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued to echo, "The Great Demon God Hong Meng is a powerful half-step divinity and he had sealed the Celestial Realm to the higher realms with his profound might. Not even I can intervene as long as his profound arrays aren''t destroyed with the Great Deste Divine Pce. However even if there are no profound arrays that have sealed off the Celestial Realm from the higher realms, I cannot intervene directly as the true gods of the Six Divine Realms all have their own destinies. My true battle is elsewhere, against the void creatures of the darkness from the Great Beyond¡­"

    Then she seemed to smile as she said, "Ji Yuan, the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is your senior sister. So you have better treated her nicely."

    It was not only Ji Yuan but the others as well who were all shocked by this revtion.

    Xu Yifei nodded quietly as she said to Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er, "I''m sorry that I''ve kept this from the two of you and the others. The Great Beyond Goddess had asked me to keep this a secret."

    Ji Yuan thought awkwardly: I am actually quite nice to my new Senior Sister Xu Yifei. I''ve banged her. I''ve better don''t let the Great Beyond Goddess knows about this or else I''ll be struck dead¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued, "Ji Yuan, there is another reason for my manifestation. And that is to grant you a question. You can ask me any question, even cultivation questions or how to ascend as an immortal. Or even a future event. As long as I am able to answer, I''ll answer it for you. Although I cannot intervene directly but I can answer a question for you. So, think carefully before you ask me the question."

    Shui Xisi could not resist a whisper to Ji Yuan, "Ask her how many maidens you will have in total."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue whispered to Ji Yuan, "Ask her if you will live or die in your next battle with the Great Demon God¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1201 The Romantic God Ji Yuan

    Chapter 1201 The Romantic God Ji Yuan

    The thousands of cultivators presented was surprised that the Great Beyond Goddess had actually allowed Ji Yuan to ask her a question.

    And they were all secretly pretending to ask her a question such as how to have a 100% chance to ascend as an immortal, how to ovee their current bottleneck to the next realm, and many others including finding profound treasures, cultivation profound arts and inheriting godly bloodlines etc.

    Actually, many of his maidens had wanted Ji Yuan to ask if they would have any children with him but they were too shy to ask him this question.

    Ji Yuan''s maidens were more concerned to ask him on their more personal questions with Ji Yuan.

    But for Ji Yuan, he was stumbled because he had actually feared for the worst that would happen to him earlier and he did not expect that the Great Beyond Goddess would grant him a question instead.

    In the dangerous world of cultivation, he had ever since developed a danger sense that caused him to have a bad habit of thinking about the worst possible scenarios and he would run first if he could not win.

    But against the Great Demon God and some other unique cases, he was forced to fight. It was because in this case, his maidens Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were the Great Demon God''s targets and also, he was avenging for his Jiajia.

    And also, he could not wait until the Great Demon God was able to fully consolidate his hold in the Celestial Realm and turned the Celestial Realm into his Deste Celestial Realm.

    Ji Yuan inhaled softly as he asked the Great Beyond Goddess, "Will I ever see my Jiajia again?"

    After thinking for a while, he finally mustered the courage to ask this question.

    When he had asked this question, many of the cultivators were startled that Ji Yuan would ask such a mundane question.

    Even the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were both shaking their heads as they thought: The Great Beyond Goddess isn''t just an ordinary immortal and she won''t even know who your Jiajia is. She is but an insignificant ant that she can''t even be bothered to track and to know. You ought to have ask her about something more important.

    Many of Ji Yuan''s maidens were secretly grieved when Ji Yuan had mentioned Jiajia such as Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Xue Qianxue, Sword Saintess Yuluo, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Ling Tianshui and Shui Qingqing.

    It was not to say that Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were not grieved too but they were less affected than the maidens that were affected as they had fought closely together with the Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Jiajia) for several months while Ji Yuan was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    The Great Beyond Goddess appeared to be startled by Ji Yuan''s question and just as everyone had thought that the Great Beyond Goddess would ask Ji Yuan to ask another question by turning him down, she had echoed. "You will see her again."

    She said in her heart: You''ve already seen her now.

    Ji Yuan did not seem to be satisfied with this answer so he mustered the courage to ask, "I don''t mean that. What if I can see her but she can''t remember me as she may have already reincarnated or I see her in the same ce but I have somewhere missed her¡­ or, maybe I am dead and reincarnated again and we both can''t remember each other¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had said this, many of the cultivators were smiling bitterly; it was because Ji Yuan hadbined too many questions at one shot.

    Even Ji Yuan''s maidens were fearing for Ji Yuan''s life as he had asked too many questions.

    Shui Xisi was sweating for Ji Yuan: He really talks too much¡­ he''s just a barbarian cultivator that totally disrespects the Great Beyond Goddess¡­

    Even Yun Chi was fearful for Ji Yuan as she sent him a divine whisper, "That''s enough already¡­ stop talking¡­"

    But Ji Yuan continued to babble and did not pay attention to Yun Chi''s soft voice in his ears. "Will we be together again and we both remembered the past? She will be alive when I found her, right? How can I meet her again?"

    Many of Ji Yuan''s maidens were all feeling quite awkward that Ji Yuan had actually asked too many questions and they were fearful of a curse that would be visited upon him for offending the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Shui Xisi could not resist whispering to Ji Yuan, "Careful the Great Beyond Goddess may turn you into a mute and you will never again be able to ask another question in your life again. This is not one question but many questions."

    The Great Beyond Goddess did not interrupt Ji Yuan as she waited for him to finish all his questions about Jiajia and finally she echoed from above, "You will meet her again and she will remember you. You will also remember her. The next time that you have met me again is also when you will see your Jiajia again."

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed as he quickly asked, "When is this next time? Is it tomorrow, 1 year, 10 years, 100 years or 1000 years?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess was indeed dumbfounded by this question as she had been constantly with Ji Yuan, quietly supporting him in his fight against the Great Demon God through Xu Yifei and the Golden Natal Divine Pearl. However, they were separated by their cultivation realms and it was impossible for them to meet for a long time, or even forever.

    It was because she had to anchor herself in the higher ne of the Great Beyond Realm to prevent the void creatures from overrunning the universe. The moment that her real body had left the ce, her profound seal would break immediately and chaos will reign in the universe.

    It was not to say that her profound seal was absolute as there were already several powerful void creatures in the universe that were loose from the great void and creating havocs throughout the universe.

    So far, the few remaining void creatures while being powerful could still be contained by the true gods and the godly immortals from the Great Beyond Realm. But it was only because they were just the lowest ranking void creatures.

    Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and the Lovely Empress had encountered one terrifying void creature when they were going to the Goddess Star Pce. They could only watch helplessly as the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing fought and kill one.

    This was also thest thing that the True Devil God had wanted her to do as well.

    The True Devil God was actually not from the Six Divine Realms but he hade from the Great Void and was mistaken as an Abyssal God because that was the first immortal divine realm that he had stepped when he had emerged from the Great Void.

    This was a secret that the Great Beyond Goddess had been trying to conceal as she took up the burden of protecting the creations of life from the darkness of the great void.

    "Ji Yuan," the Great Beyond Goddess cast away her thoughts. "I can''t tell you how long you will meet your Jiajia again but she has never forgotten about you and she is also hoping the same for you as well."

    Ji Yuan was overjoyed when he had heard this as he muttered, "Jiajia has never forgotten about me too?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess echoed, "For your dedication to your Jiajia, I have decided to confer you the immortal title of the Romantic God. Your Jiajia will like you to be a romantic cultivator. You have seeded."

    It was not just Ji Yuan who was shocked but the thousands of cultivators as well!

    Ji Yuan just got an immortal title and he was being conferred personally by the Great Beyond Goddess too!

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly to herself: Why don''t give him the title of the Lecherous God instead¡­ now his ego will be inted¡­

    Ji Yuan''s ego had indeed been inted as he tried to turn to grin at all his maidens but the overwhelming pressure that was upon him had kept his head to bow low with his body.

    In front of the thousands of cultivators, he had just got an immortal title and his renown would soon spread up to the Nine Heavens!

    He was the first ever celestial cultivator to be conferred by the Great Beyond Goddess an immortal title and his immortal title was the Romantic God.

    Does it mean that he would be a half-step true divinity in the future?

    He was now even thinking that he ought to cultivate a little harder now to be a true divinity in the future.

    The truth was, no amount of hard work, cultivation or lucky urrences can cause anyone to be a true divinity or else there would be millions of true divinity already. Thisck of true divinity was exined by many cultivation schrs as theck of profound energies in the current universe to support the golden era of the old universe where there were many more true divinities.

    But this was not true and only a spection. And it was also an easier way of exining things orzy writing to exin the logic of the universe.

    The truth was, it was extremely hard to cultivate beyond the 9th realm cultivation and it required a great deal of heavenly dao.

    Even though Ji Yuan had thought that he could cultivate harder to be a true divinity but the truth was, he was a bad cultivator and he waszy to cultivate. Another truth was that he had no bottleneck at all and that was why he was able to cultivate rapidly.

    In short, his unique constitution as the True Devil God had already destined him to be a 9th realm immortal even if he did not work hard for it.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Hahahahaha¡­"

    Some of his maidens like Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress actually had an ugly look when they saw that Ji Yuan wasughing so jovially; it was because based on their understanding on Ji Yuan, his ego would soon balloon to an unimaginable consequence.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia had a flushed look as she secretly tried to look into Ji Yuan''s direction but there were just too many cultivators that were blocking her view. But she was thinking coyly: He has an immortal title now and also he is a grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess. This means that I can be with him and my race won''t oppose to it?

    Even Ruan Songci was also coquettishly looking in the direction of Ji Yuan with the eyes of a maiden that was in love.

    They were not the only ones that were idiocy looking in Ji Yuan''s directions; there were hundreds of fangirls as well.

    Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were looking blissful; they were right to give up everything just to follow Ji Yuan!

    The Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly echoed, "I''ve some more instructions¡­"

 Chapter 1202 The Upcoming Calamity

    Chapter 1202 The Uing Cmity

    The Great Beyond Goddess said, "I''ve more instructions but this is for Wuwu, Baiyue and Sisi¡­"

    When Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Shui Xisi had heard that the Great Beyond Goddess had further instructions for them, they were quite stunned at being called out by the Great Beyond Goddess.

    All of a sudden there were three rays of golden light that had shed down from the golden clouds and into their foreheads.

    "In the third hall of the Ice Phoenix Hall, there is a hidden room behind the throne that only the Saintess Fang Zhenfei is able to enter. Without her permission, none of you may be able to enter into this room. Now you are able to freely enter this room. You may find something useful there."

    The three shes of light had granted them ess to this hidden room as this hidden room was hidden in a spatial space and it was hidden by a formidable immortal array.

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were startled; they had never known that there was a hidden room in the Ice Phoenix Hall.

    Even Shui Xisi was startled as she thought: My sister has a secret room in there? There is an instruction there for me?

    They began to wonder what kind of an instruction was there in that hidden room?

    "Ji Yuan," the Great Beyond Goddess had suddenly echoed for his name. "Your master, the Old Reverend Beiyuan and the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing had now tied the nuptial knot. Therefore, they are both your masters now. This is for you to know."

    Ji Yuan was truly surprised by this news as the two of them were often at loggerheads while inside the Goddess Star Pce.

    But he could not resist a grin as he was happy for Old Reverend Beiyuan.

    "I have also a surprise for you." The Great Beyond Goddess echoed.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "A surprise for me?"

    He hoped that he won''t have a heart attack from the surprises of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The outline of the veiled Great Beyond Goddess seemed to smile as she echoed, "I am going to send a cultivation master to you, to prepare you for the uing cmity that will befall the Six Divine Realms¡­"

    Ji Yuan was so shocked that he could not resist interrupting the Great Beyond Goddess, "What uing cmity is this?"

    Many of Ji Yuan''s maidens were groaning softly that Ji Yuan should not interrupt the Great Beyond Goddess.

    The Great Beyond Goddess was not angry or annoyed as she answered Ji Yuan, "The Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods would soon be opening for the immortals. This uing cmity is rted to this ce. But for you and some others here, I think you have earned the right to enter the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. As for this nature of this uing cmity, it is a never before cmity that will change the entire Six Divine Realms. It is a cmity that has never happened before and the immortals will soon learn of it. You and the others here are the first to learn about this."

    JI Yuan smiled weakly as he muttered softly, "Can I say no to this?"

    He just wanted to bang his maidens the whole day for now and he had not enjoyed his victory over the Great Demon God yet.

    But it seemed that the Great Beyond Goddess could hear him and she said, "As my grand prot¨¦g¨¦, you can''t say no to this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Just as Ji Yuan wanted to protest, the Great Beyond Goddess added. "You may be able to see your Jiajia in that ce too."

    Ji Yuan immediately shut his mouth up.

    The Great Beyond Goddess continued to echo, "Have your pick of your cultivation master. Will you want a man or a maiden to be your cultivation master to train you for the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods?"

    Ji Yuan immediately rolled his golden eyes; there was no way that he would want to listen to the irritatingughter of Old Reverend Beiyuan and he would rather face the beautiful and enchanting Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing.

    So he answered shamelessly, "I''d prefer a maiden cultivation master."

    When he had said that, many of his maidens were giving Ji Yuan an ugly look.

    Why was that his reply was not at all surprising to them?

    The Great Beyond Goddess echoed, "So shall it be then."

    And then a golden light began to luminate the entire vicinity and it was so bright that everyone had to close their eyes momentarily.

    And a golden light began to sh down like a golden pir in front of Ji Yuan and the dark figure of a maiden could be seen descending slowly from the heavens.

    This maiden had the presence of a true divinity!

    Even though her profound aura was not as oppressing as the Great Beyond Goddess but her mere presence alone was enough to cause ripples of fear to spread among the cultivators.

    Not even the Great Demon God was enough to inspire such a profound fear in their hearts like the way she did to their hearts.

    It is because she is a True Divinity Goddess!

    Because she had to enter through the fabric of space and descended to the Celestial Realm, she was also forced to disy all of her profound aura to protect herself.

    So naturally the oppressive aura that she had disyed was more powerful than the Great Demon God''s manifestations.

    But for Ji Yuan that had actually battled the Great Demon God personally, he was able to know that this maiden''s profound aura was naturally way stronger than the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan was muttering to himself: Actually, the Great Beyond Goddess did not need to send a cultivation master to watch over me. Since I will see Jiajia in the Ancient Battleground of the Gods, I will be there as well. Also, I may be able to see my Qianfeng there as well, right?

    This was true.

    Ji Yuan had a stubbornness for Jiajia that even he could not exin.

    To the shadowy maiden that was descending, Ji Yuan said aloud. "Your Prot¨¦g¨¦ Ji Yuan wees my prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress¡­"

    "You got the wrong person. I am not your prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress." A tender voice said from above.

    Ji Yuan was startled by this tender voice and he quickly forced his eyes to look at this shadowy maiden that was descending.

    A heavenly and beautiful maiden with a moving figure that was carrying a ck rod, was seen descending from the golden pir of light and she was Destiny!

    It was not just Ji Yuan who was shocked but Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were also shocked. "The Great Oracle Destiny?!"

    Even the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was startled as she remembered Destiny.

    Yun Chi was also startled.

    Like Ji Yuan, she was expecting to see Old Reverend Beiyuan or the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing; she had not known who Destiny was.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was weakly sending a divine whisper to the Goddess Alyssa as he was too afraid to even talk like the way Ji Yuan had talked to the Great Beyond Goddess, "Luckily, this Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now my Brother Ji Yuan. His background is so formidable that I think he is a true god that is suppressing his own cultivation to make a fool out of all of us."

    The Goddess Alyssa had also divine whispered to him, "I totally agree with you as well¡­"

    As soon as Destiny stepped out of the golden pir of light and tiptoed in front of Ji Yuan, she had suppressed her cultivation realm to the 7th realm cultivation. And she was smiling blissful as she looked at Ji Yuan. "Ji Yuan, we have met again."

    At this moment, the golden clouds above had also disappeared as the Great Beyond Goddess had taken her leave.

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared nkly at Destiny as he was trying to figure out why she was with the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Didn''t the Great Beyond Goddess imprisoned her previously?

 Chapter 1203 Destiny and the Great Beyond Goddess

    Chapter 1203 Destiny and the Great Beyond Goddess

    A few days earlier in the Great Beyond Realm or rather the Lower Great Beyond Realm.

    The Chaos Sovereign Empress Destiny had used the vast resources of her Entropy to warp to the Great Beyond Realm.

    That was because her augury had told her that she ought to seek the help of the Great Beyond Goddess if she were to go to the Celestial Realm.

    When she had learnt of her augury, she was shocked because it was unlikely that the Great Beyond Goddess would intervene for her or for anyone.

    The affairs of the Six Divine Realms were of no concern to the Great Beyond Goddess.

    Although she was reluctant to look for the Great Beyond Goddess but she had to take the small chance as she had used the once every 1000 years of true divination from her ck staff of destiny to divine the best possible oue.

    As soon as she had arrived in this vast mythicalnd of the beyond immortals, she could already see numerous floating inds and thousands of profound beasts all over the vicinity. Moreover, some of these profound beasts were even 10th rank powerful profound beasts!

    She could even sense the faint presence of the half-step true divinity or true divinity profound treasures in the mountains and floating inds that were scattered all over the ces. However she had no interest in this.

    This was actually not the first time that she had been in this ce as her ck staff of destiny was from this ce.

    However, she was not attacked as she flew around for a while and the profound beasts had purposely avoided her.

    Finally, she could not resist anymore and shouted angrily by raising her profound voice, "Great Beyond Goddess, are you here?! Surely you know of my presence already, right? Where is everyone?"

    The profound voice of the Great Beyond Goddess echoed from the heavens, "I know. I''ve thought that you are here to obtain a profound treasure as it is your right. Congrattions on attaining as a True Divinity. The years of tempering on your soul is justified. You are now free to obtain another profound treasure and you can return to your immortal realm once you are done. I don''t have to exin the divine rules in this ce to you since this isn''t your first time in this ce."

    Destiny quickly said as she hovered in the beautiful sky, "I am not here to obtain a profound treasure in this ce. I want to make a deal with you and that is, I am willing to use my right to a true divinity profound treasure to go to the Celestial Realm of the celestials."

    The Great Beyond Goddess echoed, "Surely, you know that the way to the Celestial Realm is now blocked by the Great Demon God with his profound arrays, am I right?"

    Destiny smiled weakly, "I don''t believe that you don''t have a way. It is just that you are unwilling to help me."

    "Oh?"

    Destiny hummed coldly, "Because I had lied to you in the past and you had imprisoned me."

    The Great Beyond Goddess sighed softly, "I was in the wrong then. I was upset with you for not helping to locate the soul of the True Devil God."

    "And so, now you are refusing to help me." Destiny hummed coldly.

    The Great Beyond Goddess asked, "Why do you want to go to the Celestial Realm for? You should be returning to your Entropy Realm with a true divinity artefact to gain the best possible oue against the true gods of the Great Abyssal Realm. Or you are afraid of losing and is abandoning your people?"

    Destiny smiled weakly, "I am afraid I can''t tell you the reason. Hurry. 1 day in the immortal real is 10 days in the lower Heavenly Realm. I am in a hurry."

    The Great Beyond Goddess was quiet for a while before she said slowly, "That is because the True Devil God is in the Celestial Realm now, am I right? That''s why you are going there."

    Destiny was startled; how did the Great Beyond Goddess knows about this?

    She must never tell the Great Beyond Goddess the whereabouts of the True Devil God or else she would harm him. Almost all the first generation true gods had heard of her epic battle with the True Devil God.

    It was said that the True Devil God in his madness had ughtered almost all the most powerful Beyond Immortals saved for the Great Beyond Goddess and the weaker Beyond Immortals.

    And therefore, the Great Beyond Goddess had ughtered the True Devil God in return.

    To this day, the Great Beyond Goddess was still looking for the soul reincarnation of the True Devil God to destroy itpletely.

    The Great Beyond Goddess sighed softly, "I know that the True Devil God and that his name is Ji Yuan."

    Destiny was dumbfounded; then Ji Yuan is going to be screwed¡­

    The Great Beyond Goddess said slowly, "You have misunderstood me. I''m looking for the True Devil God not to kill him but to be reunited with him. He is someone dear to my heart."

    When Destiny had heard the Great Beyond Goddess, she was shocked: How is this possible?! The True Devil God had ughtered the Beyond Immortals and this is an undeniable fact.

    The Great Beyond Goddess sighed woefully, "The True Devil God gave up his life for me and the Six Divine Realms so that he would not lose control of himself. He had purposely forced me to go beyond the true divinity so that I can kill him."

    "Beyond the true divinity?" Destiny was startled, "What sort of a cultivation realm is this? The 11th realm of divinity?"

    "That''s right. The 11th realm of divinity."

    Destiny sighed softly, "Just when I have just reached the 10th realm of divinity, you have already attained the 11th realm of divinity. Our disparity just got wider and wider. It''s no wonder why you are able to suppress me sopletely at that time."

    "I am now at the 12th immortal positioning, actually."

    Destiny was stunned, "The 12th realm immortal positioning?!"

    She almost dropped from the sky in shock.

    What kind of an immortal existence is that?!

    She was utterly shocked.

    Slowly sheposed herself to say. "Then you can open a way for me to enter the Celestial Realm? To help him to fight the Great Demon God. If you say that Ji Yuan is someone precious to you."

    The Great Beyond Goddess sighed softly, "Actually you are already toote. Ji Yuan is already fighting the Great Demon God."

    Destiny was shocked, "How did you know this?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess echoed, "That is because I''ve been with him since he had stepped in the Spirit Divine Realm and had met you there."

    Destiny was startled.

    The Great Beyond Goddess said to her, "He has now fully amalgamated the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and my Golden Natal Divine Pearl to obtain the Golden Invincible Body. Both are Beyond Divinity profound treasures. It won''t be easy for the Great Demon God to kill him as his profound strength would recover much faster than the Great Demon God. It is inevitable that he will be able to win. Despite knowing this, do you still want to go to the Celestial Realm?"

    Destiny slowly nodded, "No matter what the price is, I still want to go."

    The Great Beyond Goddess said, "You have to sacrifice a true divinity profound treasure and much more if you want to go to the lower realm. This is indeed a heavy price to be paid for. But if you want to go, then can you do something for me while you are there?"

    Destiny said solemnly, "What is it?"

    The Great Beyond Goddess slowly said, "I am unable to step into the Celestial Realm, with or without the profound arrays of the Great Demon God due to my cultivation realm. Nor can I intervene with the destinies of the Six Divine Realm or it would worsen the profound seal that I have ced against the great void. However, you can¡­"

    Back to the Celestial Realm.

    The Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Destiny was now smiling and saying gently to Ji Yuan, "Are you surprise to see me?"

    Ji Yuan was still trying to recover from his stunned reaction of seeing Destiny, "Erm, yes. And you are my new cultivation master?"

    Destiny smiled, "Of course I am. Didn''t the Great Beyond Goddess says so already?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I wonder if my new master has a profound treasure to give me as a gift? I''ve heard that the immortals are all quite generous. I am sure that my new master is also a generous master."

    Destiny: ¡­

    She stared coldly at Ji Yuan before she took out a profound pill to give it to Ji Yuan, "This is the Super Divine Iron Tedon Profound Pill. This profound pill will be able to help you to regain your profound strength in no time."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you think I do not know that this is merely a low ranking profound pill even if you add a super divine in front of it? You are nothing but a chatan¡­

    This was indeed a low ranking profound pill but Destiny had disguised it by adding a ''Super Divine'' in front of it.

    But Ji Yuan took the profound pill and pocketed it nevertheless.

    Destiny also looked at Ding Xiaoxiao, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er and the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue as she smiled to them, "We have met again."

    Then she turned to say to Ji Yuan, "Let''s go inside to chat."

    "Wait a minute!" Xue Qianxue had suddenly interrupted with a lovely smile. "Since everyone is here in this ce and that Ji Yuan has just been conferred as the Romantic God by the Great Beyond Goddess, we ought to ask Ji Yuan to say a word or two first to everyone. Also, Ji Yuan has defeated the Great Demon God and has brought peace to the Deste Celestial Fraternity. This may be a great historical thing and we all want to know what Ji Yuan would want say to all of us."

    When she had said that, there were loud cheers from the thousands of cultivators.

    "That''s right!"

    "We have finally won against the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "Sword Saint Ji Yuan is our savior¡­"

    "Savior Ji Yuan!"

    All hail the Romantic God Ji Yuan!"

    "Say something to all of us!"

    "How do we be like the Sword Saint Ji Yuan?"

    Ji Yuan immediately stepped forward with great eagerness as he grinned to everyone, "That''s right. I should say something to all of you¡­"

    Ling Feiyue covered her face as she whispered to Xue Qianxue, "Trust me, this is going to be a big mistake¡­"

    Xue Qianxue: ???

    "Huh?"

    Shui Xisi whispered to Xue Qianxue, "You have no idea how big his ego has be while he is inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth¡­"

    Even Little Princes was muttering to Feng Minyue, "I can barely listen to this uing message of his¡­"

    Ji Yuan naturally did not hear those whispers from his maidens as he raised his voice to say to all the thousands of cultivators, "We have finally triumphed over the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­"

    "Well, I am not a hero like all of you think that I am. I am just like anyone of you here who is fighting for our homnd¡­"

    "But if you want to know how I have be so strong now and even be the grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess, then I must tell you that I''ve been cultivating very hard in order to be what I am today¡­"

    "Like many cultivation heroes in the stories, I''ve never stop cultivating. s, I cultivate day and night without stopping to eat or to take a break¡­"

    When he had said that, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were rolling their eyes sheepishly; it was because their old master almost never cultivated because the Five Heavens Peaks is a spiritual energies poor area and is not a good ce for cultivation. They mostly remembered their old master going drinking with his ''brothers'' from the Five Heavens Peaks.

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily, "I am from one of the poorest regions in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, the Five Heavens Peaks. But I believe that I can fight against the heavens. Even though I don''t have a good starting point but I am willing to cultivate very hard every day to be what I am now¡­"

    Shui Xisi whispered to the rest of Ji Yuan''s maidens, "Yeah and he has be the greatest poet in the mean time too. Do you all believe in his rubbish?"

    Little Jie''Er whispered with some disbelief, "But I think that Yuan Beluga is a hardworking cultivator like he says or else he won''t be such a strong cultivator."

    Even Tang Manni, Xu Yifei and Shui Qingqing were all nodding when Little Jie''Er had said that.

    Shui Xisi covered her face as she muttered to herself: Why is that there are so many maidens that are willing to be tricked by this Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan added, "Of course, being hardworking at cultivation don''t always make you strong. I''ve also spent my time practicing my profound arts and I trained myself 12 hours a day¡­"

    Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue whispered to the other maidens, "I can''t remember that¡­"

    Little Princess was also whispering, "I can''t even remember if he ever cultivates at all while he was in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and outside too¡­"

    Ji Yuan said to the thousands of cultivators, "Do you know that for my first 500 years, I''ve never got a dao cultivation partner or involved in any rtionship? That is because a maiden will only affect the speed of my sword and only slow the speed of my cultivation down. That''s why I am one of the youngest saint around. Of course, there are many others that be a saint cultivator way faster than me but I have continued to cultivate even harder, never losing my way in the dao of cultivation¡­"

    Little Princess frowned, "Never got into any rtionship for 500 years? That is because he got dumped by his ex-girlfriend¡­"

    Even Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo could not resist adding, "Then how about me? Aren''t I his dao cultivation partner when he was 300 years old?"

    Shui Xisi frowned as she whispered to the other maidens, "Why don''t he say drinking is also a waste of time too¡­"

    The first time that she had met Ji Yuan was when he was drunk from drinking too much; he was so drunk that she had effortlessly hung him up the tree and had beaten him like a pathetic hero.

    Ji Yuan chuckled to everyone, "That is how you can be like me! Although I have no cultivation resources, no profound treasures and have evene from a poor region but I am willing to cultivate hard and train hard in my profound arts to be the Sword Saint Ji Yuan. If I can do it, do can all of you as well! All of you can be a cultivation hero like me if you cultivate hard!"

    When he had said that, there were thousands of loud cheering from the thousands of cultivators in the ce.

    They were all convinced by Ji Yuan''s encouraging words to all of them and were inspired by him.

    However, the same could not be said for many of his maidens as they rolled their golden eyes sheepishly because they know that this was not true at all.

    Ling Feiyue muttered weakly to the rest of the maidens: A cultivation hero that never cultivates because he sucks in all areas of cultivation except for his sword energy cultivation.

    Shui Xisi added weakly: He is natural born sword energy cultivator. He doesn''t even need to cultivate his sword energy so much too.

    Xue Qianxue giggled shyly: Ji Yuan only cultivates his beautiful face and his¡­ goner beard.

    All the maidens: ¡­

    Even Anyang and Xiang Li were trying to remember when was thest time that Ji Yuan had ever cultivated.

    Xiang Li had been inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with Ji Yuan for the past 2 years even though only 6 months had passed due to the longer number of days when Ji Yuan was taking his trials.

    But she only remembered that Ji Yuan spend more days banging in many chapters of his life and she could not recall a chapter of his life when Ji Yuan was actually cultivating.

    Finally, she muttered weakly: Big Brother took plenty of profound pills though.

 Chapter 1205 The Shameless Great Immortal Rohan

    <h4>Chapter 1205 The Shameless Great Immortal Rohan</h4>

    After Ji Yuan had addressed everyone, he began to return with his maidens to the inner pce of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect as he was eager to introduce Destiny to his maidens as well.

    Many of his maidens were also interested to know how did Ji Yuan manage to know a powerful true divinity like Destiny?

    Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny were also secretly looking at each other; it was because they had already noticed each other while in the Spirit Divine Realm and they had secretlye to a secret understanding that both were dangerous so they had purposely avoided a fight against each other.

    While Ding Xiaoxiao was having a duel with Destiny, she was actually afraid that Destiny may intervene all of a sudden.

    But to her surprise, Destiny did not know and it was only because she was hoping that Ji Yuan would die at that time and that her ve cor would be removed.

    However when Destiny had inspected an unconscious Ji Yuan after the duel, she was shocked that Ji Yuan was the True Devil God!

    Now Destiny was also looking shyly at Ji Yuan too but she had pretended to look indifferent as they walked toward the inner pces of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had said to her while they were in the Great Beyond Realm, "So what if you help Ji Yuan against the Great Demon God? You would never be able to be with him once you have released your true divinity strength. The Celestial Realm''s has its own heavenlyws that would send you back to the immortal realm if you have not been nurturing its heavenlyws. Therefore, you can only suppress your cultivation realm for now."

    She had answered the Great Beyond Goddess, "It is just suppressing my cultivation realm. At most when Ji Yuan is in danger, I can still release my true divinity strength to help him. So, it doesn''t really matter.

    All of a sudden her thoughts were interrupted by Great Immortal Rohan as he was being followed by the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Brother Ji Yuan! Wait! We can go with you too?"

    Ji Yuan frowned as he said to himself: You are not my maiden, why should youe with me? I can consider having the Immortal Fairy Lucia but you are a man¡­

    The Great Immortal Rohan quickly exined, "Erm, we are hoping to learn what this uing cmity is about and what this Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods is able."

    Ji Yuan took a look at Destiny who nodded slightly and he turned to grin at the Great Immortal Rohan as well as the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia, "Alright then. Come with us then."

    The Great Immortal Rohanughed and he was d that he was able to apany Ji Yuan into the inner pce or else it would be such a great loss of face for him in front of the others.

    He seemed to turn back and grin at the thousands of cultivators as though he was saying, "Look! I am part of your Sword Saint Ji Yuan''s inner circle!"

    Previously he was unconvinced that this Sword Saint Ji Yuan would be able to defeat the Great Demon God and was even nning to flee at short notice.

    But when he had learnt of Ji Yuan''s victory and that he was also the grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess, he was all too eager to ingratitude himself to him now.

    As he walked together with Ji Yuan, he could not helpughing out loud and putting ''Brother Ji Yuan'' into his mouth.

    "Brother Ji Yuan, congrattions on your victorious return!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that you will surely be able to win against the Great Demon God!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that you are the true dragon among all the fake dragons!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, I know that you are the true blessed son of the heavens!"

    "Brother Ji Yuan, surely the great luck of the heavenly dao is with you!"

    The Great Immortal Rohan was now feeling that the n to surrender by the Goddess Alyssa was the best n ever.

    Ji Yuan''s maidens were now looking a little displeased as this Great Immortal Rohan was upying their valuable time to talk to Ji Yuan and he was a little too friendly toward Ji Yuan now.

    Even the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia were hanging their head low with great awkwardness as they walked at the back; they just could not believe if this was the Great Immortal Rohan that they had known.

    Guo Taiming was actually not presented or else he would have followed Ji Yuan into the inner sanctuary as well and he would also called out to his Brother Ji Yuan in a more shameless manner.

    The reason why he was not here was because Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan had sent him away as per thest instructions of Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan knows that Guo Taiming was a poor fighter and he would be of no help anyway. Also, he would surrender at the first opportunity anyway and that was why he had been a prisoner of the Evil Cultivation Pce in the first ce.

    Moreover, some of his more badass maidens like Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and even Little Princess would make sure that Guo Taiming suffers for being thest person to see Ji Yuan and they may even me him for conspiring with Ji Yuan to fool them.

    Therefore, Ji Yuan had said to them, "Well, send him away. He is always the lucky fellow. All his friends seem to die before him and I am not an exception too."

    That was why Guo Taiming was not around.

    As Ji Yuan walked with his small group into the inner pces, the thousands of cultivators were all chatting excitingly, still in great excitement and they still could not believe that they had won against the Great Demon God!

    Very soon, news of Ji Yuan''s victory over the Great Demon God, his new immortal title as the Romantic God Ji Yuan and his ''encouraging words'' began to spread throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity like wildfire.

    In many regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, this broke the strong grip of the cultivators that had surrendered to the Evil Cultivation Pce and many of the cultivators had actually rebelled.

    Many evil cultivators were actually forced to flee or band up with other regions for a backup n as without the strong support from the Evil Cultivation God or the Great Demon God, they were not a match for the rebellious cultivators.

    Many of these rebellious cultivators were not good cultivators either and were coborators but they did not want to submit to a weaker Evil Cultivation Pce that had lost most of its strength.

    Also, many of their elders and masters were with the Evil Cultivation Master or the Great Demon God and now, they were all killed. So they had to rebel fast or they would face consequences from the cultivators that did not surrender and were fighting against the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Ji Yuan''s victory over the Great Demon God also raised morale among the resistance groups and many of the resistance groups were openly taking over the lost regions.

    The Mo n and the Orthodox Celestial Sect quickly consolidated their gains over their own domain and even expand to help the surrounding regions.

    However, this was ater ount that happened after Ji Yuan''s great victory over the Great Demon God had been spread widely.

 Chapter 1206 The Upcoming Calamity

    <h4>Chapter 1206 The Uing Cmity</h4>

    Ji Yuan was soon in another hall that was in the inner pce of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    He was naturally with his maidens and of course, the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia.

    Ji Yuan then introduced Destiny to everyone and told them that she was an immortal from the Entropy Immortal Realm.

    This shocked many of them in the hall as the Entropy Immortal Realm or the Entropy Realm for short was a faraway immortal divine realm.

    The Entropy Realm and the Great Abyssal Realm are two immortal divine realms that border each other far from the rest of the 4 immortal divine realms.

    The Deste Realm and the Nine Heavens are two immortal divine realms that border each other.

    Likewise, the Greater Spirit Realm and the Great Beyond Realm are the other two immortal divine realms that border each other.

    These six immortal divine realms are simply known as the Six Divine Realms.

    To the Great Immortal Rohan, he had never even seen any immortal from the Entropy Realm or the Great Abyssal Realm in his life.

    Actually, he had also never seen any immortals from the Greater Spirit Realm or the Great Beyond Realm either.

    The only exception was Ji Yuan who had met the immortals from the Six Divine Realms.

    Ji Yuan also introduced the rest to Destiny so that she would be acquainted with everyone.

    Actually Ji Yuan did not introduce Destiny as the Chaos Sovereign Empress as he did not know that she had be regained her leadership position but merely as Destiny.

    Now that they had all settled in the hall and had been introduced, the Great Immortal Rohan could not resist the question that was bottling in his heart, "Great Goddess Destiny¡­"

    He did not dare to address her by her name but had added a title of the celestial immortals to her name as he asked, "What is this Ancient Battleground of the Fall Gods that the Great Beyond Goddess had mentioned earlier? And what is this uing cmity that the Great Beyond Goddess had mentioned?"

    It was timely for the Great Immortal Rohan to ask this question as these two questions were actually in the hearts of many of Ji Yuan''s maidens as well.

    Destiny sighed softly as these two questions were unavoidable to answer.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had agreed to help her but she had to give up her destiny which mean that she would have to give up a chance to pick a true divinity profound treasure to descend to the Celestial Realm.

    With some luck, she could even find a Beyond Divinity profound treasure that could be tamed by her but she had to give it up now.

    But Destiny was willing to give up her chance of obtaining a true divinity profound treasure in order to be with Ji Yuan.

    Although she was greedy but the Great Beyond was a ce that she did not want to visit as she did not want to meet the Great Beyond Goddess or allowed her to know that she had been freed from her imprisonment.

    However, she was eventually forced to pay the Great Beyond Goddess a visit.

    And of course, the Great Beyond Goddess had some instructions for her to bring to Ji Yuan as well as to the immortals of course.

    By sacrificing her right to obtain a true divinity profound treasure, the Great Beyond Goddess was able to intervene by opening a gateway to the Celestial Realm.

    Normally the price for descending to the lower realm was extremely heavy for the immortals, especially true divinity like Destiny; the immortals had to pay for an equivalent exchange to the heavenly dao as they are not supposed to intervene with the destinies of the lower realm.

    Destiny actually had not obtained a true divinity profound treasure yet and she was unwilling to sacrifice her ck staff of destiny that she had obtained after nearly a month of chasing after it in the past.

    The immortal profound artefacts all had their sentients and it was not as simple as just ''obtaining'' it.

    Even Ji Yuan''s immortal scabbard was only obtained with the help of Bai Qianfeng and after much difficulty.

    However, the Great Beyond Goddess had simply opened a gateway for her after she had told her about her instructions.

    It was only then that Destiny had realized how powerful the Great Beyond Goddess really was.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had exined to her that the very act of giving up her destined true divinity profound treasure was enough and that was also a sacrifice to the heavenly dao. And hence, she could intervene on her behalf.

    And so, there was no need for an actual true divinity profound treasure to be sacrificed.

    Destiny slowly said as being instructed by the Great Beyond Goddess, "In a few months'' time, the Ancient Battleground of the Fall Gods will descend from the Great Void and the immortals from the Six Divine Realms will be able to gain ess to this ce. By now, the Great Beyond Goddess should have already made the announcement throughout the Six Divine Realms¡­"

    "The reason for its appearance is because the great profound seal to the Great Void is weakening and the appearance of the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods can no longer be postponed anymore¡­"

    "This Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods is a spatial realm where many of the ancient immortals had fallen a long time ago against the creatures of the great void¡­"

    "Just like we can enter into the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods, so can the creatures of the great void. So the immortals of the great void will be attempting to use the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods to enter into our universe¡­"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "The immortals of the great void?"

    Destiny nodded slowly, "That''s right. The immortals of the great void. They will be entering the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods to search for the void stones in order to destroy the profound great seal that the Great Beyond Goddess had ced on the Great Void¡­"

    "I''ve seen a creature of the great void before," Ji Yuan interrupted with a heavy sigh. "It is immensely powerful and is equivalent to a 10th rank profound beast."

    Then he asked curiously, "How strong are the immortals of the Great Void? Won''t I be screwed if I go inside the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods?"

    Destiny smiled wryly, "Don''t worry. ordingly to the Great Beyond Goddess, the Immortals of the Great Void don''t have alot of 10th true divnities. And it is much harder to cultivate in the great void."

    Ji Yuan was quite relieved to hear this.

    Destiny continued, "However, they are much stronger than the same realm immortals of our Six Divine Realms."

    Ji Yuan: ...

 Chapter 1207 Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi

    <h4>Chapter 1207 Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi</h4>

    After the meeting with everyone had ended, Hua Wuwu then took Destiny to a room for her while Hua Baiyue showed Ding Xiaoxiao her too as they took them into the deep recess of the inner pce of the Tranquil Phoenix Hall.

    Ji Yuan was then heard quarrelling furiously with Shui Xisi along the hallway and Ji Yuan med Shui Xisi for kicking him down the tform earlier.

    "I won''t forget this slight that is from you!"

    "That is because you tried to take all the credits for yourself after we had saved your poor ass! Well, you are the Romantic God Ji Yuan now and also the grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess. But if you think that you can bully me, this is your big mistake!"

    This startled everyone and raised the concern of Shui Qingqing who was rmed that her matriarch and prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress was having a quarrel with Ji Yuan.

    Even Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er were greatly rmed as they tried to stop the fight.

    Ji Yuan coolly said to Shui Xisi, "This is between the two of us. Let''s go into my room to settle this. I don''t want to rm the others."

    "Do you think that I will be afraid of you?" Shui Xisi hummed coldly as she stormed off with Ji Yuan together.

    Shui Qingqing was fearful for her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress and at the same time, she was also afraid that Ji Yuan maye to harm.

    But Ling Feiyue smiled wryly to her along with Little Princess, "Don''t worry. They will be alright."

    Even Xue Qianxue, Sword Saintess Yuluo, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan were afraid that something may have happened as their quarrels were too aggressive as Ji Yuan was still in a bad state and was not a match for Shui Xisi.

    Little Princess rolled her mesmerizing eyes as she cursed softly: These two are chatans¡­

    They had been caught in their lovemaking acts unwittingly by Ling Feiyue and Little Princess on quite a few asions now but each time, they would refuse to admit it and they were even quite shameless about it and thinking of various excuses to cover their deeds.

    Even Feng Minyue, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Yun Chi were looking weakly at the rest of the maidens.

    It was because Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were so shameless as to pick a quarrel immediately after the meeting.

    Indeed, Ling Feiyue and Little Princess were not wrong.

    Even Feng Minyue, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, the Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and Yun Chi were not wrong.

    Immediately when Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had entered into the room, they were stripping off their clothing and were kissing passionately.

    The passions that they had for one another had reached a boiling point and they could no longer suppress their desires for each other.

    Ji Yuan was already kissing passionately all over her soft body and so did Shui Xisi as she sunk her fingernails into Ji Yuan''s body.

    Shui Xisi moaned softly, "Ji Yuan, your body has be so tough now that I can''t even scratch you now."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That is because I am at the 9th realm cultivation now. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "I just can''t believe how you are able to defeat the Great Demon God. But¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had ceased her softughter and she was saying mncholy to him, "I''ve already lost my Sister Feifei (Jiajia) and I can''t afford to lose you. If it isn''t for our timely arrival, you would have been really dead."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "Well, I can''t deny that. The Great Demon God is really strong. I don''t want the Great Demon God and his cultivators to attack the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. This ce is Jiajia''s home and I don''t want to ruin the beautifulndscape in this ce. Also, I don''t want the rest of you toe to any harm."

    Shui Xisi sighed, "I know. But it is still too reckless for you to go alone without telling us."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "But I am safe now, right? You have better checked on Augustinater. She has taken a blow from the Great Demon God''s most powerful profound attack for me."

    "She''s alright now but she has to sleep for some time," Shui Xisi replied with a soft sigh.

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That is a good relief to hear this."

    Then he said firmly, "The next time, the Great Demon God won''t be this lucky and I will settle my feud with him for killing my Jiajia."

    Ji Yuan thought that he may not lose to the Great Demon God if he had not been weakened by his assaults against the Evil Cultivation Pce, against Number 3 and 5 and against the Deste Killing Heaven Array.

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "The Great Demon God can''t regain his profound strength as rapidly here as in the immortal realm and he can''t consume any immortal profound pills. Moreover, the next time, he won''t be baited by you to fight you alone. So, you still have to be careful. The only way to ensure yourplete victory is to increase your cultivation realm first. Maybe it is still not enough to kill the Great Demon God but it is enough to make the lesser immortals hesitate."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Maybe¡­"

    Shui Xisi smiled wryly as she asked, "So, what is your story between Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny? Hurry up and be honest with me."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he suddenly seized her white jaded legs up as he began to bang wildly into her, "Now it is between you and me. Let''s don''t talk about the other maidens for now. Hahaha¡­."

    Shui Xisi moaned softly as her naked body and her breasts began to jump up and down as Ji Yuan began to bang wildly into her.

    Under Ji Yuan''s furious and wild attack, she had abandoned all her questions at least for now as she moaned softly, "Ji Yuan, Ji Yuan. I love you so much. Don''t leave me¡­ and don''t die in the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods¡­"

    Ji Yuan said to her firmly as he enjoyed their pleasures together, "Didn''t the Great Beyond Goddess says I can find Jiajia?"

    There were tears that were in Shui Xisi''s eyes; it was because she was not sure of this.

    She had actually sent a secret message to the Nine Heavens to ask her mother consort the Great Goddess Alice and told her that Ji Yuan had triumphed over the Great Demon God and she had also told her about the death of her Sister Feifei.

    She had even asked the Great Goddess Alice if it was possible to revive her sister but the answer was no as she had blown up her cultivation core.

    This means that the Great Beyond Goddess had lied to Ji Yuan. But why did she have to do so? But the Great Beyond Goddess wouldn''t lie to anyone as she represents the Heavenly Dao.

 Chapter 1208 The Secret Room in the Ice Phoenix Hall

    <h4>Chapter 1208 The Secret Room in the Ice Phoenix Hall</h4>

    The next day.

    Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Shui Xisi were alone as they explored the secret room in the Ice Phoenix Hall together.

    Hua Wuwu smiled to Shui Xisi, "So, how is your quarrel with Ji Yuanst night? Did he yield to you or not?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "I''ve beaten him to a pulp. Next time he won''t dare to raise his voice against me."

    Hua Baiyue smiled weakly, "I saw him in the corridor looking fine and he was talking with a Maiden by the name of Ruan Songci."

    Shui Xisi was startled, "Who is she? Howe I didn''t know that he has a new flirt?"

    Hua Baiyue smiled, "Although this Ruan Songci is a really beautiful maiden but she isn''t his new flirt. I saw him arguing with her instead."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Then she is his new flirt."

    Hua Baiyue: ¡­

    She weakly said, "Why do you say that?"

    Shui Xisi was also smiling weakly as she was only pretending to quarrel with Ji Yuan so she had assumed that this Maiden Ruan Songci was also pretending to quarrel with him.

    "Anyway, what are they quarrelling about?" Shui Xisi asked Hua Baiyue.

    Hua Baiyue smiled, "Ji Yuan was asking her to change his swordy ranking to number 1 in the top 100 ranking but this Maiden Ruan Songci could not change it for him and she was trying to exin to him why she could not."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Why not? Since Ji Yuan has already defeated the Great Demon God, his profound sword art should be in the top 100 ranking."

    Hua Baiyueughed softly, "This Maiden Ruan Songci exined to Ji Yuan that she had never seen his new profound sword arts before and she can''t make any decision on that. Moreover his own cultivation sect swordy has seen more defeats than victories so it is currently out of the top 100 swordy now."

    Hua Wuwu giggled, "I have to agree with Maiden Ruan Songci on this. Just because Ji Yuan is good with his cultivation sect''s swordy, it doesn''t mean that Shangguan Yan or her prot¨¦g¨¦s are good. The ranking is based on the average index score of the numerous cultivators that are using the same swordy. Not everyone will be good in that and it doesn''t prove that the swordy is good."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "I see now¡­"

    She did not really cared for the top 100 ranking of the profound arts in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and she had never thought that Ji Yuan would be so picky as to quarrel to get into the top 100 swordy ranking. This was toome...

    "He is a little too shameless," Shui Xisi was forced to admit that Ji Yuan had actually tried to squeeze his swordy into the top 100 ranking.

    Hua Baiyue giggled softly, "He is a master and moreover, no one is really impressed with his cultivation sect''s swordy. Maybe his unique profound sword arts can be in the top 100 profound sword art ranking but he was arguing to get his Orthodox Sword Sect''s Major Heavens Sword back into the top 100 swordy ranking again. I must say that he is reallyme."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Why is that I got a bad feeling about this? I think he is really flirting with that Maiden Ruan Songci instead¡­"

    All of a sudden Hua Wuwu had unlocked the secret room in the Ice Phoenix Hall and a profound array in the shape of a shimmering blue portal had appeared.

    This interrupted Shui Xisi from her thoughts and also startled Hua Baiyue as well.

    The three of them then nodded at one another before they stepped into the blue shimmering portal.

    Shui Xisi continued to muttered as she stepped into the blue shimmering portal, "Ji Yuan is so hateful. Why are there so many maidens that like this rascal? Well I don''t¡­"

    When she had said that, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were both weakly looking at each other.

    Shui Xisi was their prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress'' sister and they know that she won''t cast off her disguise as an old maiden to follow Ji Yuan around.

    If she did then it means that Ji Yuan had already captured her interest.

    If not, judging by Shui Xisi''s temperament, she would have left a long time ago.

    Everyone knows that Shui Xisi was in Ji Yuan''s room for the entire night and not all the maidens believe that they would actually quarrel for the entire night until the wee morning.

    The room inside the shimmering blue portal was not big at all; it was just a small room and many cultivation slips in it.

    In there, there was also a table and a dusty book.

    Shui Xisi picked up the book to scroll it and was startled that it was actually her Sister Feifei''s diary; in it was her records on how she hade to take notice of Ji Yuan. In fact, this diary only talked about Ji Yuan.

    In this diary, her Sister Feifei also wrote about how she had secretly helped Ji Yuan to breakthrough to his saint cultivation by secretly nting high grade spirit stones for him.

    There were tears in Shui Xisi''s golden eyes as she read the diary while muttered to herself: Ji Yuan, you are so stupid¡­

    Hua Wuwu asked quietly when she saw that Shui Xisi was weeping, "What is this book about?"

    Shui Xisi sighed softly, "This is my sister''s diary. I think she wants me to have it¡­"

    Then she looked around the room, "There are many cultivation slips in this room. The two of you may have it since the two of you are her core prot¨¦g¨¦s and also her sessor."

    As she said that, she began to hug the diary of her sister close to her bosoms as she muttered, "These are all my sister''s precious memories¡­. I think she wants me to know how she had met Ji Yuan¡­ but they are unable to be together now¡­"

    All of a sudden, Hua Wuwu gasped with shock and it startled both Shui Xisi and Hua Baiyue.

    "What is it?" Hua Baiyue asked.

    Even Shui Xisi was curious as she looked at Hua Wuwu.

    Hua Wuwu asked them, "Do you remember how the Great Beyond Goddess had called us when she showed us about this room?"

    Hua Baiyue nodded, "Wuwu, Baiyue and Sisi¡­"

    This time round even Shui Xisi was startled, "The Great Beyond Goddess had called us by our personal names and called me Sisi as well¡­ Sisi is my pet name and no one but my Sister Feifei and Ji Yuan will call me Sisi¡­"

    Hua Wuwu interrupted, "This isn''t the strangest part too. How did the Great Beyond Goddess knows about this personal room? And she can even give us the permission to enter this personal room?"

    "That''s right¡­" Hua Baiyue was also pondering now, "At that time, we are all so affected by the awe of the Great Beyond Goddess that we did not notice this. In fact, we won''t even be able to notice this at all if Hua Wuwu didn''t even think about this."

    Hua Wuwu said, "Maybe I am overthinking this? Or maybe our mistress had prayed to the Great Beyond Goddess for help?"

    Shui Xisi was muttering to herself, "Sister Feifei, you¡­ are still around?"

    Actually, when the Great Beyond Goddess had appeared yesterday, she had actually felt intimate and easy in her presence; at that time she had no words to exin that.

    In fact, her true phoenix bloodline was also feeling quite excited and that she had even awakened the soul core of her Xiao Ruan, causing her to be revived in her soul core.

    Shui Xisi had actually made a daring assumption and that the Great Beyond Goddess was actually her Sister Feifei!

    Although this was not logical possible but her closeness that she had felt when her Sister Feifei was near, cannot be mistaken because they were twins and she was actually her younger sister!

    Also, only her Sister Feifei will call her Sisi as she is her Sister Sisi.

    Come to think of this, Xiao Ruan''s soul core has revived because she could sense the presence of her Sister Feifei as they are soul linked together.

    That would exin why Xiao Ruan has now been revived all of a sudden.

    Shui Xisi had traveled with Dream Mist and she was the Great Beyond Goddess but Dream Mist was not her Sister Feifei for sure because her Sister Feifei was still in the Celestial Realm.

    There are two Great Beyond Goddesses or?

    Shui Xisi was lost on how to decipher this mystery¡­

 Chapter 1209 Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao

    <h4>Chapter 1209 Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao</h4>

    Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao were now alone in a private room as they sat opposite to each other.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I really didn''t expect that the Number 1 most powerful sword cultivator in the Deste Realm would be on Ji Yuan''s side. He is really lucky. Without you, maybe he would have already been dead now."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was also smiling, "And I didn''t expect for the Death God Mingwang to be a maiden and a pregnant one. If you are not pregnant, then it won''t be difficult for you to join hand with Ji Yuan and to thwart him."

    Yun Chi suddenly asked her, "So, when did it start?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled by her question and she pretended to ask, "What do you mean by this?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "Naturally I mean between you and Ji Yuan. I remember that you are after his life when you have met me in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ding Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "It may have start from the point onward after I had duelled with him. But at that point of time, it is just a admiration for his sword skill and it had not started yet¡­"

    She did not know she was confessing in front of Yun Chi but maybe she needed someone to talk to, "Then I have to meet him a second time in another trial¡­"

    Then there was a flush in her beautiful white countenance, "I didn''t expect to have met him so soon and I was really happy to see him again¡­"

    She had met him in a forest and she had a gambit with him and she had lost.

    Then she chuckled softly, "Back then, he seemed to be afraid of me and he had run off as soon as he could. But I had met him once again in the same trial when he was facing his Immortal Heavenly Wrath. And we had also fought together against a true god of the Great Abyssal Realm together¡­"

    She was flushing coyly and was looking delighted as she recalled the fight that she had together with Ji Yuan.

    They had not only fought together but had evenbined two profound sword arts together to defeat the Immortal Abyssal Gong Diablo.

    Due to the restrictions of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she could not mention the ces and names of her trial to Yun Chi.

    But Yun Chi understood because she was inside as well, even though she had not taken part in theter trials after a near death experience in the Star Goddess Pce.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked her, "What about you? Aren''t you supposed to be after Ji Yuan''s life? Why are you with him?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "Like you, I got seduced by this little rascal¡­."

    Then she grown solemn, "However, killing Ji Yuan is but a front. We didn''t think that Ji Yuan is a threat to us since he is such a puny seventh realm sword cultivator. With or without the Goddess Tear, the Great Demon God and I didn''t expect Ji Yuan to be a threat. After all, we have three true gods in the same ce and we thought that we are invincible¡­"

    "Except that the Deste Dragon God Longdi had died first," Ding Xiaoxiao said ruefully.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I have some responsibility to his death. Hehe¡­"

    She had checked the timeline and deducted that when Dream Mist had broken the immortal array that was in Bliss City that was nurturing the three emperor-step divine swords, the Deste Dragon God Longdi had suffered a bacsh when Dream Mist had destroyed his soul link emperor-step divine sword.

    Ding Xiaoxiao nodded, "It is no wonder why. I know that you can''t tell me the details but I know that you are telling me the truth."

    Yun Chi smiled, "My true mission is to obtain the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well as to collect the spirit stones that can be gained from the celestial cultivators in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. As you know, we have a hideout in that ce."

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded before she sighed, "Do you know that the Great Demon God intended for me to take away your life? Then he can dominate the entire Celestial Realm. Once I have finished with this third task, I will be free to go."

    "Well, you still can''t go." Yun Chi smiled wryly.

    "What do you mean?" Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

    Yun Chi exined, "Once the Great Demon God hasplete dominion over the Celestial Realm, he will be the Heavenly Dao of the Celestial Realm. Therefore, he can even suppress your cultivation realm and you can''t return to the Deste Realm. Don''t you get it? The Great Demon God won''t let you go. He will make you into his maiden."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was startled as she recalled what the Great Demon God was trying to do to her with the Flower of the Blissful Lust.

    Yun Chi quietly said, "I don''t think that I will be able to enter the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. It is up to you to support Ji Yuan in this uing cmity. You can take care of him?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao slowly nodded, "I will."

    As she agreed to help, she had also shifted her body and her robe was slightly exposed as it exposed her belly within.

    Yun Chi''s sharp eyes had suddenly spotted a purple runic taboo on her belly and she was startled, "That purple rune on your belly. How did you get it?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled wryly, "It has always been with me and it is a runic mark that can''t be removed."

    Yun Chi gasped softly, "Of course you can''t remove it because it contains the life essence of the Angel Tribe. Purple is the highest ranking color of my Angel Tribe."

    Then Yun Chi disrobed and showed Ding Xiaoxiao her belly as well and there was an identical purple rune.

    Yun Chi was trembling all of a sudden as she stared at Ding Xiaoxiao with great disbelief. "Other than my long-lost younger sister and I, no one else would have this purple mark."

    Ding Xiaoxiao stared at Yun Chi with great disbelief, "I don''t have an older sister. My mother consort and my vige, they are all massacred¡­"

    Yun Chi had suddenly gripped her shoulders as she said firmly, "This memory of yours must be a false imnted memory so as to groom you into a sword cultivator that can be equaled to me. Trust me, you are my younger sister¡­"

    Then Yun Chi was weeping and she was trembling, "I''ve finally found my younger sister at longst¡­"

    Ding Xiaoxiao muttered, "You are really my kin? But I don''t have any memories of you¡­"

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "We don''t have any parents because we are the first generation immortal gods that are birthed from the essences of our world. When I had stepped into the world, you are still frozen as a small child in the rocks of the Seraphine Mountains. You are unable toe to the world with me because you are weaker than me. Or rather, I have absorbed all the essences of the Seraphine Mountains in order to step forth as a true god¡­"

    "However since I have already arrived in the world, the essences of the Seraphine Mountains would eventually be restored over time, even though it may be a long time. Eventually, you will still be able toe to the world as my equal¡­"

    "But one day when I was back to the Seraphine Mountains, I had discovered that you are missing. Someone powerful had ripped the cluck of rock that holds you and took you away from me!"

    Yun Chi tearfully hugged Ding Xiaoxiao, "There is no doubt that you are my younger sister."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was stunned, "I have¡­ an older sister¡­ and my memories are fake¡­"

    Then all of a sudden Ding Xiaoxiao gasped softly, "It must be the Great Demon God¡­"

    It was because she had suddenly remembered that the Great Demon God had told her that he knows everything about her when she had first met him.

    Yun Chi bitterly said, "The Great Demon God must be secretly grooming you into his half-god weapon against me. To think that I had even worked with the enemy that had snatched my younger sister from me!"

    All of a sudden, Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao were both crying in each other''s embrace.

    Yun Chi quickly inspect Ding Xiaoxiao''s veins and she was shocked, "Your spiritual veins have beenpletely taken away¡­"

    When she had said that, her tears were rolling uncontrobly.

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "My spiritual veins?"

    Yun Chi sighed heavily, "It is to prevent you from using your angelic spirit animus. And it also prevents me or anyone else from ever realizing that you are my younger sister. But luckily, the purple mark on your belly cannot be removed as it contains the life essence of our Angel Tribe and it is what that is nurturing your cultivation. The one that took away your spiritual veins still wants you to continue to cultivate and to grow."

    She had suddenly turned very solemn, "It''s no wonder why the Great Demon God is able to obtain the Ultimate Evil Vein as his own bloodline. That is because he has actually used your spiritual vein to gain control over the Ultimate Evil Vein. This score against the Great Demon God, I will surely settle with him!"

    All of a sudden there was a small voice from Yun Chi''s belly, "Mama. Don''t cry."

    Yun Chi smiled all of a sudden as she answered, "Little child, let me introduce you to your Aunt who is also my younger sister!"

    Ding Xiaoxiao muttered, "This is my little niece? She can talk?"

    Yun Chi smiled, "She is a daughter of a half-god and she has her mother''s good genes."

    Ding Xiaoxiao said weakly, "Actually Ji Yuan''s genes aren''t that bad¡­"

    Yun Chi interrupted her with an unhappy look, "Other than drinking and ying with maidens, what else does Ji Yuan knows?"

 Chapter 1210 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia (1)

    Chapter 1210 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia (1)

    Ji Yuan was like the happiest man in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect as he got to embrace and banged his maidens all day and night.

    His ego had indeed be quite big.

    When he had chanced upon the Immortal Fairy Lucia along the hallway, he attempted to flirt with her as he grinned. "Isn''t this the Fairy Lucia? Why are you alone in the hallway?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was startled to see Ji Yuan along the hallway and she was flushing coyly at him.

    She had been trying to find a chance to obtain his favor for the past several days but Ji Yuan was truly a busy man and he had too many maidens that were around him.

    It was rare to find Ji Yuan alone.

    So she quickly said, "My lord Ji Yuan, I have run into a little bottleneck with my cultivation. I wonder if you are able to help me with it?"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at her low neckline and the beautiful curves of her enticing body, "Of course I will be able to help you. It so happens that cultivation is what I am most excel. Hahaha¡­"

    Anyang warned Ji Yuan in his inner spiritual sea: My lord, don''t blow up your bluff. You know that you suck in all kinds of cultivations except for the sword cultivation.

    Even Xiang Li was advising Ji Yuan as she said weakly to him: She is an immortal. You don''t know any immortal cultivation at all even if you are a 9th realm half-immortal now. There is still a big disparity between a half-immortal and a true immortal.

    But Ji Yuan ignored both their advices as he continued on his bluff, "Why don''t youe to my personal room while you exin to me your cultivation bottleneck?"

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was startled when Ji Yuan had suddenly wanted to invite her to his personal room, "Go to your personal room? Really?"

    Anyang said weakly to Ji Yuan: She isn''t gonna to believe you. Now you have screwed up. Your intentions are too direct and you are acting like a lecherous wolf. You can suggest going to a cultivation chamber instead.

    Even Ji Yuan had regretted being so direct but it was toote to retract his words.

    "Alright then," the Immortal Fairy Lucia nodded shyly. "Let''s go."

    Ji Yuan was startled when the Immortal Fairy Lucia had agreed to go with him to his personal room and he could not believe that she would actually fall for his untrustworthy babble.

    As they walked together along the hallway, they had suddenly bumped into Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao who wereughing jovially together.

    Ji Yuan was surprised to see Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao together and moreover, they appeared to be in an amicable term.

    He asked them weakly, "Erm, when did the two of you be so friendly with each other? Or did you fight a duel together?"

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled as she asked him, "Why don''t you make a guess?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well I don''t know. That''s why I am asking."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Actually we should ask you why the two of you are together. Instead, you have asked us instead?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Don''t misunderstood. The two of us have a really very pure rtionship. The Immortal Fairy Lucia has a cultivation bottleneck and she needs my help."

    When Ji Yuan had said that, even the Immortal Fairy Lucia was greatly flustered as this was a lie.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "Oh? Howe I didn''t know that you are good in cultivation?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly protested: "Actually I am really good with all kinds of cultivation. It is just that I am too humble to show off to all of you."

    Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao: ¡­

    Then he quicklyughed as he pulled the Immortal Fairy Lucia along with him, "Let''s talkter after I have helped with her cultivation problem."

    With that, Ji Yuan had quickly disappeared along the hallway with the Immortal Fairy Lucia.

    Yun Chi: ¡­

    "I haven''t even told him that you are my sister yet."

    Ding Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes as she said weakly, "Sister, you are right. Except for drinking and flirting with the maidens, he knows nothing at all."

    Yun Chiughed softly, "Look at his guilty look and you know that he is trying to flirt with this Fairy Lucia. She is truly a great beauty."

    Ding Xiaoxiao remembered what Shui Xisi had previously said about Ji Yuan and she said the same thing as well, "I hope he don''t get any damage to his waist."

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "I am just astonished that he can be like a dragon after battling with the Great Demon God. His speed of recovery seems to be a little abnormal. I had actually expected for him to be in seclusion for the next few months as he quietly regain his cultivation strength until the opening of the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. But he seems to be recovering fast even without any closed door cultivation."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was smiling wryly as well, "Well, he is the reincarnation True Devil God after all. So his cultivation body should be quite unique to himself."

    Yun Chi nodded, "I have heard of the Great Void Body of the True Devil God but I just find it hard that Ji Yuan is actually the True Devil God."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled, "Why? Because he doesn''t fit the image?"

    Yun Chi smiled weakly, "If he is the True Devil God then he is a mortal enemy of the Great Beyond Goddess. But the Great Beyond Goddess has even acknowledged him as her grand prot¨¦g¨¦. This is indeed truly strange."

    Ding Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "He is the mortal enemy of the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Yun Chi slowly nodded, "It is true. I can only think of one thing and that is Maiden Ling Feiyue is right about it."

    Ding Xiaoxiao who rarely got involved in any gossips, was curious. "What did Maiden Ling Feiyue say about this?"

    Yun Chi quietly whispered to Ding Xiaoxiao, "There is an affair between the Great Beyond Goddess and Ji Yuan for sure. You may not know this but something had happened while we are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. You can use your imagination to think about this.

    Ding Xiaoxiao gasped with great disbelief, "He¡­ banged the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Yun Chi solemnly said, "I didn''t say that to you."

    Ding Xiaoxiao weakly answered, "Of course my sister didn''t say this to me¡­ this Ji Yuan is too ridiculous! It''s no wonder why the Great Beyond Goddess has made him the Romantic God. He is indeed too romantic."

    Yun Chi sighed softly, "I actually didn''t believe this but after he had banged the two of us, I''m going to believe the impossible and he had done plenty of impossible things with his sucky cultivation."

    Ding Xiaoxiao smiled weakly, "He only has a beautiful face. Why is that I think that he is merely a gigolo?"

    Yun Chi chuckled softly, "I have that exact sentiment as well. It''s no wonder why we are sisters¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was interrupted by Shui Xisi who had suddenly arrived in the hallway as she asked. "Where is Ji Yuan? I can''t find him everywhere and he isn''t in his room. I have something important to tell him."

    She had wanted to tell Ji Yuan about her guess and that finding the Great Beyond Goddess may shed light on finding her Sister Feifei.

    Yun Chi smiled wryly, "He has just gone back to his personal room. But I don''t suggest that you disturb him because he is with the Immortal Fairy Lucia."

    Shui Xisi was startled and she was looking unhappily, "What?! He has a new flirt already? Right under the very eyes of all his maidens. This little rascal. He is a gigolo or what?!"

    Then she added unhappily, "Don''t get me wrong. I am just feeling unjustly for all of you. Well, this stupid Ji Yuan that thinks that he is so smart. He can figure out what I am going to tell him for the new year. In fact, he can spend the entire next year trying to figure it out. Hmph!"

    When she had said that, she had angrily stormed off.

    Just like that, Ji Yuan had lost two opportunities to learn about two earth shaking news from Yun Chi and Shui Xisi.

    Yun Chi: ???

    Ding Xiaoxiao: ???

    "Why is she so upset about?" Ding Xiaoxiao asked Yun Chi. "She isn''t Ji Yuan''s maiden. Why should she care so much about Ji Yuan''s new flirt?"

    Yun Chiughed softly, "Sister Xiaoxiao, I am afraid that you are still too young and too simple. This Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan are actually together."

    Ding Xiaoxiao was astonished, "But aren''t they always quarrelling?"

    Even Yun Chi was smiling weakly when she had heard that as she answered awkwardly, "Well, they are on new whole level of shamelessness that can''t be beaten by anyone."

 Chapter 1211 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia (2)

    Chapter 1211 Ji Yuan and the Immortal Fairy Lucia (2)

    Ji Yuan was now in his personal room with Immortal Fairy Lucia.

    And he was looking with great interest at her.

    It was because she was adorned in a gown that was woven from the silky essence of celestial silk, which was a cascade of delicate silk and gossamer threads, captures the celestial radiance of a thousand constetions. The fabric gently embraces her lithe form, entuating every graceful curve, while iridescent hues dance upon its surface, reflecting the hues of a celestial aurora. Adorned with intricately embroidered patterns that seem toe alive in the soft glow of starlight, her robe garment and her bodice within was a masterpiece of celestial craftsmanship.

    And of course, her attire was almost translucent and showed her slim figure and skin but conveniently covered the most important part that Ji Yuan had wanted to see which in turn piqued his interest.

    Ji Yuan could also sniff her enchanting fragrance, evoking the scent of celestial flowers that lingers in the air as he had a very sharp nose and this enhanced her enchanting allure to him even more.

    He pretended to ask her, "Your cultivation bottleneck. What is it?"

    Although he had asked her this question but he was looking at every inch of her body that moved.

    Banging a celestial immortal had an irresistible allure on JI Yuan after he had banged Bai Qianfeng so he was wondering how the Immortal Fairy Lucia would react differently from his Qianfeng.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia sighed softly as she answered Ji Yuan, "I am struck in the lower upper 8th realm for a long time. I wonder if a powerful 9th realm cultivator like yourself will be able to help me to break into the middle upper 8th cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuan said shamelessly, "Give me your hand. I will need my divine sense to probe your cultivation core."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia nodded as she gave Ji Yuan her right hand to inspect.

    Ji Yuan quickly began to touch her smooth and silky hand as though he was an expert.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia asked, "How is it?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to say solemnly as he continued to feel her hand, "I need more time as I am out of practice for some time."

    Anyang said weakly to Xiang Li: He isn''t out of practice. He doesn''t even know how to start in the first ce.

    But Xiang Li was giggling was instead: Big Brother, you are the best.

    Anyang: ¡­

    After some time, Ji Yuan frowned to the Immortal Fairy Lucia. "This isn''t good."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia was startled, "Is something wrong?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "If I am not wrong, then you must have struck in your cultivation for a very long time."

    This was of course rubbish as Bai Qianfeng had once told Ji Yuan that it was extremely difficult for the immortals to advance in their cultivation realms even for tens of thousands of years.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia answered him with a light nod, "Indeed. I didn''t advance in my cultivation for the past 3000 years. So I am hoping that I may be able to advance a little."

    Actually Ji Yuan did not know that the Immortal Fairy Lucia was actually a genius immortal and she had already regained to her peak 3000 years ago as an 8th realm immortal cultivator in the Celestial Realm.

    In fact, she was even quicker than the Goddess Alyssa and the Goddess Mel in regaining to her peak. Moreover, she did not have to depend on the Evil Cultivation Pce for any cultivation resources to do so.

    However, she had already reached the limit of her potential as the spirit roots of her immortal body had already limited her to the 8th realm cultivation. In short, it was extremely difficult for her to surpass her limits and to be a lofty 9th realm immortal.

    Although she was merely at the 8th immortal positioning but the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had considered her as one of their most elite immortals due to her talents with the immortal profound arts.

    Most 8th realm immortals won''t be her match and she could be considered to be at the top tier of the 8th realm immortals.

    That was why to her, this Ji Yuan was a super genius that would one day be a great god like the Great God Xuan Yuan, the World Ruler Fuxi or the Great God Pangu.

    Ji Yuan pretended to say solemnly, "I may be able to help you but there is no promise about it. But I need to inspect you more thoroughly. This may be too great a sacrifice for you and you have to strip for me to touch your back. Don''t worry, it is just your back."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia began to flush when Ji Yuan had said that.

    Actually, even Ji Yuan was feeling quite awkward when he had said this to the Immortal Fairy Lucia; he was just repeating what he had read in the cultivation stories but trying to act as convincing as possible was a little hard.

    He had actually realized that no maidens would strip in front of him and he felt stupid for suggesting it.

    In fact, he was beginning to realize the folly of his lies and he had realized that he may have identally exposed himself as a chatan.

    The Immortal Fairy Luca lowered her head with great shyness, "The Great Immortal Rohan has already given me to you. Naturally you can see my body."

    This was a tant lie, of course.

    She was quite selective when ites to her dao cultivation partner and not even the Great Immortal Rohan would able to force her against her will.

    The Great Immortal Rohan had been trying to make her into his maiden but he had failed on numerous times despite the fact he was a middle 9th realm immortal and he was a lot more powerful than her.

    But she was secretly trying to seduce Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan''s words gave her something to start with herme excuse of being struck in her cultivation bottleneck.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia then turned around slowly as she slipped off her robe from her naked shoulders.

    She was notpletely naked as she was also wearing a string bodice that was made of translucent celestial silk but Ji Yuan could see her beautiful alluring back clearly as the bodice was too transparent.

    Ji Yuan gulped dryly as he stared at her back, and so did Xiang Li and Anyang who were both also looking with great interest.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia slowly loosened the strings of her translucent bodice as she let it fall loosely into her bosoms as she held onto it.

    Ji Yuan was now seeing her naked back now and he was gulping dryly and his golden eyes were also looking lecherously.

    She called out softly to Ji Yuan, "Great Immortal Ji Yuan, you are start now."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to himself and he was being heard by Anyang and Xiang Li: This is too sinful. Erm, I am only teasing her. I think this joke is now being carried a little too far. I am a gentleman of the sword and an honorable sword saint. I shouldn''t be taking advantage of an innocent maiden in this manner.

    Although he had said so, his hands were already massaging her silky naked back and he was continuously thinking of putting his hands to her bosoms in front.

    Anyang asked him coolly: And what are your hands doing now?

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: You didn''t stop me¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia did not dare to look at him as she was flushing hotly. It was especially so when Ji Yuan was massaging her back and groping at her at random.

    She knows that he was actually taking advantage of her instead.

    At the very least, she was aware of her irresistible charms and she knows that at the very least that Ji Yuan was interested in herpared to a few days ago.

    Actually, before the fight with the Great Demon God, Ji Yuan really had no mood to get into any new rtionship. And moreover, he actually did not want to touch Xu Yifei and the Lovely Empress as well as he feared that he may die fighting the Great Demon God.

    But now that he had returned in triumphant against the Great Demon God, his libido had also increased.

    As a result, he could not help but take notice of the Immortal Fairy Lucia and even Ruan Songci as he pretended to quarrel with her.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia said shyly as Ji Yuan was massaging her, "Great Immortal Ji Yuan, am I considered to be your maiden as well?"

    Ji Yuan was startled by her sudden question but he was not stupid so he answered her immediately, "Of course you are."

    And when he had said that, he had turned her around and this caused her bodice to slip from her bosoms to reveal her beautiful two bunnies.

    Ji Yuan gasped softly as he reached out for her two bunnies to fondle her.

    And it did not take him long for him Ji Yua to hop onto her as he kissed her passionately.

    It did not long for Ji Yuan to strip the rest of the Immortal Fairy Lucia''s clothing off as he started to explore her fascinating body.

    And so he was saddling the Immortal Fairy Lucia as their love making moans could be heard echoing in the room.

 Chapter 1212 Ji Yuan and Ruan Songci (1)

    Chapter 1212 Ji Yuan and Ruan Songci (1)

    As soon as Ji Yuan had escorted a flustered looking Immortal Fairy Lucia out of his room, he was quite startled to find the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Little Princess and the Smiling Divine Maiden were just standing a short distance away.

    He quickly averted his eyes from staring down at the Immortal Fairy Lucia''s bosoms and to look as gentleman as possible by saying. "If you still have any issue with your cultivation, you can look for me¡­"

    Also, he tried to quickly slipped away his fingers that were under the Immortal Fairy Lucia''s skirt where he was fingering her wet little sister.

    Ling Feiyue was heard expressing a soft chuckle to the rest of the maidens as she said, "I''ve won. He is in there for at least 6 hours."

    The Lovely Empress hummed coldly as she stared at Ji Yuan from where she was standing, "Ji Yuan, are you having fun?"

    Ji Yuan immediately protested loudly, "I am afraid that you have misunderstood me this time. The Fairy Lucia had an issue with her cultivation and hence, I was only trying to help her."

    When Ji Yuan had said that, the Immortal Fairy Lucia could only lower her flushed face lower and with great awkwardness.

    Ji Yuan continued with a pretended look of indignant, "I am a gentleman of the sword so you should trust me."

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Cultivation? I didn''t know that you are good in cultivation. Oh yes, there is one cultivation that you are good at and that is dual cultivation."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress was also smiling lovingly before she chuckled, "Why don''t you make an oath to the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested weakly while trying to maintain his pretended fa?ade by saying solemnly, "Do you think that my grand prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress'' name can be misused in this manner? How many times have I told all of you the truth but you have disbelieved me?"

    Then he pretended to puff angrily while pretending to shake his head with great disbelief.

    Ling Feiyue said to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, I''ve got good news for you."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Oh? What good news?"

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Our Spirit Blue Moon Sect has been restored by our resistance group and my aunt Ling Tianshui is now rushing there with the other elders to clean the ce for us. You have now regained your Dark Lord position in the Spirit Blue Moon Sect."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I almost forgotten about my position as the Dark Lord of the Spirit Blue Moon Sect. But how can I be a leader of the unorthodox cultivation sect as well as the sect leader of my Emperor Hall Sect. Orthodox and unorthodox cultivation sects don''t mix¡­"

    "Go and die, Ji Yuan." Ling Feiyue interrupted him with an unhappy look. "Who will care about this when you are the Savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity now?"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "You never know if my enemies will use this as a weapon to destroy my reputation¡­"

    "I ought to go now. Thank you for your aid, Great Immortal Ji Yuan." The Immortal Fairy Lucia quickly said to him as she interrupted him before walking shyly away.

    The longer that she had stayed around Ji Yuan, the more awkward she was especially when Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan were chatting about things that she had no interest with.

    However as she walked past Ling Feiyue in a hurry, she was stopped by Ling Feiyue who was smiling wryly at her. "Good sister, wee to the family. From today onward, you are now one of us. Come with us and we will chat together."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled, "I am Chu Lixue. And I am Ji Yuan''s senior sister."

    The other maidens were also quickly introducing themselves as they pulled the Immortal Fairy Lucia along with them as theyughed jovially along the hallway.

    "Wee to the family!"

    "Let me tell you all about Ji Yuan and all the stupid things that he had ever done¡­"

    "I will introduce everyone to you¡­"

    Just like that, the Immortal Fairy Lucia was pulled away by Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and the other maidens as they all walked away without taking a second look at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    They don''t believe that I am innocent?!

    When did my words be so untrustworthy?

    He muttered, "These maidens. After they had their fun out of me, they think that they can bully me by disregarding me? I''m not going to let them off lightly unless they are willing to beg me to give them my mercy. Of course, I have a price and they have to sacrifice their bodies of course¡­."

    Anyang weakly said to Ji Yuan: My lord, you sound like a bad guy.

    "Rubbish!" Ji Yuan protested strongly. "I am the Savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    All of a sudden he was being interrupted by a beautiful voice from behind him, "Savior Ji Yuan, I wonder if it is a good time to talk with you?"

    Ji Yuan turned around and was startled to see that it was actually Maiden Ruan Songci that was calling him from afar.

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said, "Of course it is a good time to talk to me."

    It was such a good feeling to have someone called him a Savior when he had just dered himself as a Savior.

    Ruan Songci took awhile to reach him before she lowered her head to say in a flustered tone, "I¡­ didn''t mean to quarrel with you on the ranking board. It''s just that I didn''t have any authority to change your cultivation sect''s swordy ranking."

    Ji Yuanughed, "It is alright. It is over now. I like maidens with principles. Haha¡­"

    Of course he did not mind; he was only flirting and teasing with her just to see how she would react and to hook her up.

    Ruan Songci was startled that she had been forgiven by Ji Yuan so easily and she was secretly relieved.

    "Savior Ji Yuan, you are really not angry with me?"

    She was really afraid that he may be upset with her as she was now trying to get into his good books so that she would have a better progression in the Mystic Eyes Sect.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Why should I be upset with you?"

    As he said that, he was trying to think of an excuse to make her stay a little longer. After all, this Ruan Songci and the Immortal Fairy Lucia were two of the most beautiful maidens in all the beautiful maidens that were being sent to him as his harem.

    However, Ji Yuan is an orthodox cultivator and he isn''t an unorthodox cultivator. He did not treat it for real especially after his victory over the Great Demon God. Therefore, he was actually allowing these maidens to go back to their cultivation sects after things got more peaceful in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The news of his victory was now spreading rapidly throughout the Deste Celestial Fraternity and there was fierce fighting everywhere.

    Everyday there were some good news as the resistance groups were winning and the remnants of the Evil Cultivation Pce had fled before them.

    In no time, the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity would be peaceful once again.

    But back to the two maidens that Ji Yuan had shown an interest in, he was not going to let them go off so easily without flirting with them.

    Now that he had got the Immortal Lucia Fairy, it was time for him to try his luck with Ruan Songci.

    Ji Yuan grinned to her, "Actually, do you want to hear some of my exploits that even your Mystic Eye Sect did not know? This may be valuable to you."

    Ruan Songci gasped, "Really? I can?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Of course you can. Why don''t youe to my room and we can have a little chat?"

    This caused Ruan Songci to have a flustered look as she shyly nodded; she was actually looking for an excuse to give herself an opportunity to have a chance with Ji Yuan and she had also dressed in her best.

    However, unknown to her, Ji Yuan was also interested in her.

    Just like that, she had entered Ji Yuan''s room with him.

    Once inside, she had pulled a trick as she pretended to be in awe of Ji Yuan''s room and she had unmindfully tripped into his embrace.

    Ji Yuan naturally was not slow as he caught her soft body into his embrace and he was only too delighted; he was just looking for a perfect excuse toy his hands on Ruan Songci.

    Of course, he fingered her in a subtle manner too for some small advantages.

    Then he decided to use the oldest trick in the book, "Maiden Ruan Songci, you are so beautiful. You are the most beautiful maiden that I ever known. I wonder if I can kiss you?"

    This startled Ruan Songci who did not know how to react as she stared with great shyness at Ji Yuan.

    Anyang warned Ji Yuan: My lord, you are exactly like a bad guy now. This trick won''t work at all¡­

    "You can kiss me," Ruan Songci had suddenly said to Ji Yuan.

    This caused Anyang to be startled and Xiang Li to be greatly delighted.

    Ji Yuan began to kiss her immediately and he did more than that; he had also groped her breasts and slipped her robe off her as he kissed her to the bed.

    It was because he had noticed that Ruan Songci was also kissing him in return and he did not want to waste this golden opportunity to bang her.

    Author Note:

    1. I am a little buzy for this week. Although there is only a chaptertely but they are all long chapters so it is the almost the same as 2 chapters a day.

    2. I have also been rewritting/ writting My Viiness is my Love Interest to gather more interest in The Romantic Cultivator as well. In case the readers do not know, my editor for The Romantic Cultivator had gone missing or can''t be bothered to promote The Romantic Cultivator after I had request to unlock the chapters to more chapters. So I have to promote The Romantic Cultivator with the other editors.

    Anyway this editor is so bad that she has gone missing and you won''t find any Eastern Fantasy that are being promoted except the old ones in any of the feature listing. Nowadays it is all Fantasy.

 Chapter 1213 Ji Yuan and Ruan Songci (2)

    Chapter 1213 Ji Yuan and Ruan Songci (2)

    Ji Yuan and Ruan Songci were both naked as they rolled in the bed.

    Ruan Songci was greatly flustered and helpless as she returned Ji Yuan''s passionate kisses with her own clumsy kisses.

    She was actually torn between wanting to be Ji Yuan''s maiden and her own promotion within her own cultivation sect by obtaining more news about Ji Yuan.

    It was true that she had shown no interest in Ji Yuan at the very start and she was only influenced by the maidens around her that had shown interest in Ji Yuan.

    In fact, she actually did not know what she was thinking or doing when she had approached Ji Yuan as she was drawn by his allure bit by bit.

    And she could not help but think of him, especially the time that she had first met him.

    It was not hard to remember Ji Yuan even though she did not know his name at the time as he was too beautiful looking and there was even a goddess maiden that was talking with him.

    Moreover, he had asked her the funniest question about Xue Qianxue as well.

    Later, she had realized why when both Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue had both put a heavy bounty on him, dead or alive.

    It was a great irony that both Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were now Ji Yuan''s consorts; everyone had thought that these two maidens must have hated Ji Yuan for doing something offensive to them and there were endless spections about it.

    In fact, there was even a high price for obtaining this news in the Mystic Eye Sect.

    Ji Yuan could tell that Ruan Songci had never been touched by a man before as he aroused her body by stroking and ying her with his fingers. And he had actually taken a look as well down into her wet beautiful valley.

    He was about to saddle her and to take her chastity after appreciating her beautiful body.

    As this was her first time, she was clenching the bed sheet tightly when she had suddenly asked Ji Yuan, "Howe there are blood stains here as well? And it seems fresh?"

    Ji Yuan had actually taken the Immortal Fairy Lucia''s chastity a while ago and he was awkward to exin it.

    Heughed weakly as he tried to cook up an excuse, "This is my own blood and don''t tell anyone about this. As you know, I had a big fight with the Great Demon God and I have not yet fully recovered. I don''t want the others to worry.

    Just as he was about to try to take away her chastity again, Ruan Songci said with a guilty look. "This may not be a good idea, right? After all, you have no fully recovered and I will only be harming you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Why did she have to talk so much in such a situation?

    He weakly said, "Don''t worry. I''ll be just fine."

    Ruan Songci asked, "You can still do it in your current condition. Don''t tell me the rumors are true? That you are actually knowledgeable in dual cultivation. Are you nning to make me into your living cauldron and to suck my true essence so as to regain your constitution?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I am an evil dual cultivator?!

    He quickly said gravely, "Well, I don''t. I mean I don''t practice any dual cultivation profound arts and also, you are not my living cauldron."

    Ruan Songci gasped softly, "Then why are we doing this? I am not your maiden and also, I don''t want to be med for worsening your injuries. Your maidens and my elders will kill me if they know about this. I am too young to die."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had suddenly decided to show hand and said instead, "That is because you are exactly my kind and I want to bang you. And I want you to be my maiden."

    Ruan Songci gasped, "I can be your maiden? You are interested in me? This isn''t a one night stand?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course you can be my maiden and this isn''t a one night stand. Aren''t we already naked in each other embrace now?"

    Ruan Songci was suddenly looking very flustered; although she did not want to admit that she is drawn to Ji Yuan but she cannot resist the temptations of her heart.

    "But I am just a low ranking cultivator in the Mystic Eye Sect. Do you want to wait until I got promoted to elder?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I really can''t wait¡­"

    She really talked too much¡­

    He remembered the first time that he had met her, she was also the first maiden to raise a question and talked boldly to him.

    At this moment, he really wanted to screw her now as he held onto her silky white buttocks that were raised in front of him.

    Ruan Songci sighed, "I just remembered that I can''t be your maiden just yet. It is because I need your unbiased information to take back to my Mystic Eye Sect. In that way, I may have a chance to be promoted to a junior elder of the inner court¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She is too honest¡­ and talks too much¡­

    He had suddenly interrupted her with a weak smile, "You know. Why don''t you quit your Mystic Eye Sect and you can be an elder of my cultivation sect instead."

    Ruan Songci smiled weakly, "The Mystic Eye Sect is a lot bigger than your Emperor Hall Sect and has more than 100 000 cultivators. My stipend is also quite high whenpared to most of the other cultivation sects¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted her as he grinned to her, "What is your stipend? I can give you 10 times more."

    Ruan Songci was startled and she was stammering, "10 times more? Promoting to an elder will only give me 30% more and that''s a lot already¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he said to her, "Have you forgotten that I am not only the Dark Lord of the Blue Spirits Moon Sect but I am also Xue Qianxue''s lord as well. Not only that, even Hua Wuwu the new sect leader of the Blue Phoenix Sect is also my consort. Not to mention that Sword Saintess Yuluo of the Profound Heaven Sword Manor is also my consort. I am even thinking of making the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect as my new base as the spiritual mountains here are richer than the Five Mountain Peaks. So, do you think that I am unable to give you 10 times your stipend?"

    Anyang muttered weakly to Xiang Li: He didn''t even ask her how much is her stipend. He is just writing a nk cheque to cheat a maiden¡­

    Xiang Li giggled: That''s my Big Brother! He''s the best!

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ruan Songci was startled, "I can have 10 times more stipend?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "And you can also be my elder too."

    Ruan Songci asked curiously but it was clear that she was moved, "But what I can do? I''m not too good to teach or good in many cultivations."

    Ji Yuan cooked up a story immediately, "You will be my special elder. I will let you in charge of collecting information for me¡­"

    "You mean I can be your spymaster?" Ruan Songci was gasping as she interrupted excitingly. "The spymaster position is a lofty position within the Mystic Eye Sect. The Mystic Secrets Hall is the most prestigious hall that I''ve always wanted to join."

    "Erm, the Mystic Eye Sect has a spy position?" Ji Yuan was astonished.

    Ruan Songci nodded, "The Mystic Eye Sect as you know is in charge of the all the Mystic Eye Guilds in numerous free trading cities and that was when we had first met as well. Sometimes, the powerful cultivation sects wille to my Mystic Eye Sect to obtain secret information and we will sell them this secret information. However, such secret trades are highly confidential."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I see now. Well, you can be my spymaster then."

    "But this will require arge amount of spirit stones to setup a spywork. Do you think that you can support it?" Ruan Songci asked curiously.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he lied, "I am fabulous wealthy now. You can use any amount of spirit stones as you pleased¡­"

    Right now, he was just thinking how he was able to bang her and was just writing a nk cheque.

    Ruan Songci asked with a flustered look, "For starter, I may need 1 million high grade spirit stones as fund. It isn''t low or medium spirit stones and it is a lot¡­"

    "I million high grade stones?" Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning.

    Ruan Songci sighed woefully, "I know that this is a lot. So forget about it¡­"

    Ji Yuan was suddenlyughing out loud as he hastily took out 10 million high grade stones and ced it in front of her, "Here is 10 million high grade spirit stones. It is all for you."

    Ruan Songci was shocked that Ji Yuan had just given her 10 million high grade stones instead of the 1 million spirit stones that she had asked for.

    "You are not afraid that I may secretly steal the funds for myself? This is a lot¡­"

    Ji Yuan had already lost patience and he was already holding onto her buttocks as he banged into her, "I am not afraid. It is because I know that the prot¨¦g¨¦s of the Mystic Eye Sect are trained to be absolutely honest when ites to dealing with confidential information and they can keep secrets. But, can we talkter?"

    Compared to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu 50 million high grade spirit stones per bang, this was too cheap to Ji Yuan.

    Ruan Songci was indeed not talking anymore and she was moaning passionately as Ji Yuan had entered into her.

    Ji Yuan has no idea how capable Ruan Songci is in the future as she bes his spymaster and this inted his ego more as he boasts that it is all due to his excellent foresight on why he has picked Ruan Songci as his maiden.

    But this is all rubbish as he isn''t thinking about it at this time.

 Chapter 1214 Emperor Ji Yuan?

    Chapter 1214 Emperor Ji Yuan?

    In no time, Ji Yuan was introducing the Immortal Fairy Lucia and Ruan Songci to all his maidens.

    Among all the maidens that were presented, only Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing were not his official maidens.

    Shui Qingqing felt very awkward when Ji Yuan was introducing his maidens to everyone and she was secretly saddened in her heart; it was because she had known Ji Yuan far longer than some of the maidens but they had all be his maidens except for her.

    Actually Ji Yuan knows Shui Qingqing''s heart for him but he had purposely suppressed it; it was because he was having an affair with her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress Shui Xisi.

    It would be quite scandalous for him if he were to take both Shui Xisi and Shui Qingqing as both his maidens as they had a master-disciple rtionship.

    Shui Qingqing was just too innocent and until now, she did not know that Shui Xisi and him had an affair. At the same time the other maidens that know did not want to break her heart by telling her about this.

    Many of the maidens that know about this feel very bad about breaking her prot¨¦g¨¦ mistress'' affair with Ji Yuan to her and afraid that she may not be able to take it.

    Also, some of Ji Yuan''s maidens feel that he did not deserve to have the innocent Shui Qingqing as his maiden.

    Of course, there were 4 maidens that did not think so and they were Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi. It was because they all had a master-disciple rtionship either with Ji Yuan or with the Saintess Fang Zhenfei (Xia Jiajia).

    At this point of time, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu and the rest of Xue Qianxue''s resistance group had also arrived at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Ji Yuan was d to see Fairy Qiu Xiuyu again as he quickly introduced the Immortal Fairy Lucia, Ruan Songci and Ding Xiaoxiao to her.

    After more than 1 week of having too much fun with his maidens, Ji Yuan''s was indeed suffering from a backache and he was unable to take it as well.

    Shui Xisi said coldly to him in front of the others, "Serve you right for being so lecherous. I''m not surprised if you be an impotent man."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He could only swallow this bitter pill as Shui Xisi was the one that had ounted for half of his backaches.

    Today was a special day, not because Ji Yuan was taking a break to rest his body but because arge profound ship from the Mo n had just arrived at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Xue Qianxue was delighted as she is rted to the Mo n.

    Stepping from thisrge profound ship was Mo Bei, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and dozens of cultivators from the Mo n.

    Xue Qianxue quickly ushered them to see Ji Yuan who could not receive them as he was disabled from having too much fun.

    Mo Bei was delighted when he saw Ji Yuan, "You little rascal! You didn''t die yet! And you end up saving the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Then he was sighing heavily, "It seems that you will be disabled like this until your bones can heal. Luckily you are a golden celestial so you have a chance to recover. I''ll find the best profound medicines for you to get you on your feet!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "This isn''t what you think. Just give me a week time and I''ll recover."

    He had been banging nonstop for more than a week and he did not even take a break as golden celestials rarely need to sleep.

    And before he had fought with the Great Demon God, he was also banging his maidens for almost 2 weeks.

    And now, finally his body could not take it anymore and he was forced to take a break.

    Ji Yuan whispered to him, "If senior is able to get me more of the masculine profound pills, it will be great."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    "I won''t because you can''t even bang anyone in your current state."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming had suddenly shoved Mo Bei aside as he eagerly patted the sitting Ji Yuan, "Hahaha, Ji Yuan! I know that you will be the savior that will deliver our Deste Celestial Fraternity and even the entire Celestial Realm. Do you know that this augury has costed me 100 years of my old life? But this is worth it. Worth it¡­"

    He was extremely delighted because a long time ago, he had predicted a cmity that would befall his Mo n. He was actually more concerned for his Mo n than the Deste Celestial Fraternity and he had been looking for many ways to avert this uing cmity."

    Mo Ming said to Ji Yuan as he gave him another heavy pat, "Finally I can ascend to the immortal realm now. I have postponed my ascension long enough."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Senior, maybe you may want to postpone your ascension until the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods is over."

    Mo Ming frowned, "What is that?"

    Ji Yuan then exined to him about what the Great Beyond Goddess had said to everyone that was presented at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    Mo Ming frowned, "I have heard that you have an immortal title now as the Romantic God Ji Yuan. But this Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods, I''ve not heard anything about it yet. So this is the uing cmity that would soon happen."

    Ji Yuan grinned to him, "You don''t mind helping to do an augury for me?"

    Mo Ming sighed, "I can''t because I am now at the end of my life span and my augury for you is actually my final divination."

    Xue Qianxue immediately said to Ji Yuan, "I am afraid that my patriarch won''t be able to perform any divination from now onward. This uing cmity seems to be an unknown immortal cmity and it would cost my patriarch his life to divine anything from it."

    Ji Yuan looked a little disappointed as he nodded.

    Then he asked curiously, "Senior, why are you here and not erm, fighting to restore the other regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity?"

    Mo Mingughed in his old hoarse voice, "There is nothing to fight now. Most of the regions have already been reverted to safe hands now especially after the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce had all been defeated by you."

    Then he said solemnly, "The trickiest problem is mainly the leadership struggles and the internal strives. This will take a long time to settle. In many of the cultivation sects, there are plenty of leadership vacuum. As you know, more than 1/5 of the leadership of the cultivation sects had actually defected to the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce. And many of the cultivation sects that had surrendered are now iming that they are only pretending to surrender in order to maintain their position of power."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "This sounds messy enough. Luckily, this isn''t my problem."

    Mo Ming said gravely to him, "It is your problem now."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "What do you mean?"

    Mo Ming grinned as he stolen a nce at Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Sword Saintess Yuluo, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    "That is because we have decided to make you our Alliance Leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity now. And you will be in charge of all the celestial affairs of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "You may as well make me the emperor of the Deste Celestial Fraternity," he frowned.

    Mo Ming gave him a heavy pat as he said, "Since this is your wish to be an emperor, this shall be granted to you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly protested, "Wait! I am not saying that I want to be an emperor!"

    Mo Ming said to Ji Yuan, "Young man, you must have a bigger foresight. Are you happy with being a sect leader of a puny Emperor Hall Sect?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "I am actually fine with that, you know."

    He did not want any responsibilities.

    Mo Ming said to him, "You can have a chance to change the Deste Celestial Fraternity into something that pleases you."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Like what?"

    Diviner Mo Ming and Mo Bei said at the same time, "You can make the beardless cultivators feel proud. Imagine a beardless cultivator that is the most powerful leader in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan wasughing jovially now, "Now, this sounds interesting. Hahaha¡­."

    Shui Xisi whispered to the other maidens, "Ji Yuan is sucker for any face saving measures¡­"

    Ji Yuan chuckled jovially, "You know. I don''t mind being an alliance leader. This sounds like the thing that I like to do from the very start. Hahaha¡­"

    Mo Ming and Mo Bei were alsoughing alongside with him.

    Mo Bei said to him, "I can be your assistant alliance leader too. I mean, I can help to assist you. Hahahaha¡­"

    Mo Ming said to Ji Yuan, "The prestige of my Mo n will be greatly increased because of you because you are the son-inw of my Mo n as well."

    Then all three of them wereughing jovially together.

    Little Princess whispered to the other maidens, "Why is that I feel that they areughing in an evil manner over there?"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes as she looked at Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue, "I got a bad feeling about this."

    Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao, the Immortal Fairy Lucia, Tang Manni, Xu Yifei and Little Jie''Er werepletely nonchnt about this as they cared little about the affairs of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    As for Ruan Songci, she was looking excited and looking coyly at Ji Yuan. Soon, she would even be a maiden of the most powerful leader in the entire Deste Celestial Fraternity!

    She hadpletely forgotten about her Mystic Eye Sect already.

 Chapter 1215 Youâ€™re the Alliance Leader

    <h4>Chapter 1215 You''re the Alliance Leader</h4>

    Ji Yuan was nowughing jovially with Mo Ming and Mo Bei in a corner.

    He said to Mo Bei, "You will be my assistant alliance leader? But you are my senior. Is it really a good idea for my senior to be my assistant alliance leader?"

    Mo Beiughed aloud, "Although I am your assistant alliance leader but I am actually the one in charge. As for you, you can rx at one side¡­"

    "Senior, you really take me for a fool?" Ji Yuan was suddenly frowning.

    Mo Beiughed weakly, "I was joking with you¡­ Hahaha¡­ you don''t have to be so serious about this."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I know that you want your Mo n to be the top celestial n in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and so you want this assistant alliance leader position. Am I right?"

    Mo Bei and Mo Mingughed weakly.

    Mo Ming was forced to admit, "Ji Yuan, on ount of Xue Qianxue, you got to give my Mo n a helping hand."

    "Little rascal, are you going to help or not?" Mo Bei frowned.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "What if I don''t? I need some benefits too."

    Mo Bei gravely said to Ji Yuan, "For using our Dream Trial, you still owe us 1 billion high grade spirit stones¡­"

    "Hahahaha, I was also joking with you just now. Of course, you can be my assistant alliance leader." Ji Yuan quickly interrupted him with a weak look.

    This caused both Mo Bei and Mo Ming tough jovially again.

    Mo Ming had suddenly turned solemnly and said, "Ji Yuan, we are only here to tell you to be the alliance leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity but we are also here to tell you that you ought to host your wedding at the same time."

    "My wedding?" Ji Yuan was stammering. "Erm, maybe next time. Hahaha¡­"

    Mo Ming frowned, "You are not taking my Qianxue as your consort?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "It isn''t that¡­"

    He turned to look at the many maidens that were watching them at the other end of the corner before he whispered to them, "It is going to be a little hard to decide who first and who gonna best. So¡­"

    "And so, you are going to let them all be your concubines instead of your consorts instead?" Mo Bei gave him a look of disbelief as he interrupted him.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I''d like to wait for Jiajia first."

    When Ji Yuan had mentioned Jiajia, both Mo Ming and Mo Bei were both sighing softly.

    Mo Ming said, "Alright then. We will respect your wishes for this."

    Ji Yuan was greatly relieved and he wasughing again.

    Mo Bei asked him, "You know. You have so many maidens now. Don''t tell me that you are going to marry your Jiajia first before taking my niece Qianxue as your consort?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course not. I''m going to marry them all. They are all my dao cultivation partner now so it doesn''t marry if they are my consorts or not."

    Mo Bei whispered, "Then won''t your wedding night be messy? I mean, who are you going to¡­ bed first?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he whispered into Mo Bei''s ears, "I will bed them all."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming pretended to be hard of hearing and he looked the other way when he had heard Ji Yuan.

    Mo Bei cursed Ji Yuan, "Little rascal. How are you going to find such a big bed to amodate all of them?"

    Ji Yuan began to rub his chin to ponder, "That''s a very good question¡­ I haven''t really thought of this yet."

    Mo Bei said, "Forget about this first. This isn''t your top priority now. Your top priority now is to be the alliance leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity first."

    Ji Yuan asked solemnly, "You know. There are 7 top orthodox celestial cultivation sects and 5 top unorthodox cultivation sects, excluding your Mo n and some other major celestial ns around. In order to be an alliance leader, technically, I need them to agree with this. This isn''t something that I can self-nominate myself."

    Mo Bei and Mo Ming were suddenlyughing jovially as they patted him hard on his shoulders.

    Mo Bei grinned as he stroked his beard, "Little rascal, I am d that you know about this. But there is something that you do not know yet. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Mo Bei continued tough jovially, "Don''t you get it? Everyone has agreed to nominate you as the alliance leader."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Wait a minute. Howe I do not know about this?"

    Mo Bei frowned, "I had heard that someone here had been enjoying himself too much to care about the on-going affairs of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "This isn''t true. I was badly injured as you can see. I can''t even move my back now."

    Mo Bei stared at Ji Yuan and said, "That isn''t what my Niece Qianxue had told me."

    Ji Yuan immediately shut his mouth.

    But barely a blink of an eye had passed, he could not resist saying. "Wait a minute. I have a feud with the Mystic Profound Pavilion. They can''t possibly agree, right?"

    He stopped short of saying that he had killed Jin Yilong inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Mo Bei grinned, "Great Saint Jin Tianzong the sect leader of the Mystic Profound Pavilion had died along with many of his senior leaders. They had mostly defected to the side of the Evil Cultivation Pce and I am afraid that the Mystic Profound Pavilion isn''t going to be a major orthodox celestial n anymore from now onward. But anyway¡­"

    Great Saint Jin Tianzong was actually the father of Jin Yilong.

    He had suddenly patted Ji Yuan with a mysterious look, "Your daughter-inw Jin Yuyun is now the new sect leader of the Mystic Profound Pavilion and your son Ji Hao has joined her as an elder there now. Therefore, the Mystic Profound Pavilion is fully supportive of you to be the alliance leader."

    Ji Yuan was astonished by this news but he was soon frowning, "They''ve actually quit my Emperor Hall Sect without my knowledge? Don''t they know the punishment for quitting my cultivation sect?"

    Actually he could not remember the punishment for that as Jiajia was the founder of the Emperor Hall Sect.

    But he was soonughing jovially at this news.

    Mo Bei was alsoughing along with him as he said, "In 2 weeks'' time, they will alle to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect to cement your appointment as the alliance leader of our Deste Celestial Fraternity."

 Chapter 1216 Preparations as the Alliance Leader

    <h4>Chapter 1216 Preparations as the Alliance Leader</h4>

    2 weekster.

    It was time for Ji Yuan''s ''coronation'' as the Alliance Leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Ji Yuan''s recovery was actually insane. He had totally recovered after taking 3 days of rest.

    All of his maidens felt guilty as they were also responsible for causing Ji Yuan to be disable for 3 days.

    The Great Demon God did not disable Ji Yuan but he was being disabled by his maidens instead.

    Naturally this was something that was unknown to most of the cultivators that were at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect as Ji Yuan was always in the inner pces. To them, it had appeared that Ji Yuan was suffering from the consequences of his injuries with the Great Demon God.

    For 2 weeks, there were numerous profound ships were at the Pentecost Mountains and there were also numerous flying mounts as well.

    Even onnd, numerous cultivators were making their way to the Pentecost Mountains as they headed for the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect where Ji Yuan was at.

    Many cultivators could not miss the once in a life time coronation of the first ever Alliance Leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    The orthodox and unorthodox cultivators always had their differences.

    It was not exactly a big secret that the celestial orthodox cultivators and the unorthodox cultivators don''t see eye to eye together due to the differences in ideologies and cultivation practices.

    But today, everyone was willing toe together because Ji Yuan was their Savior as well as Hero.

    Also, Ji Yuan had powerful friends from both the orthodox and unorthodox side.

    And no one was willing to offend Ji Yuan.

    Moreover, he was also a 9th realm cultivator that astonished many.

    There were many sages and schrs that were now trying to figure out how this was possible if Ji Yuan was not an immortal yet.

    Ji Yuan naturally did not want to tell them that he was only a half-immortal and that he had gone on a different cultivation path that would make his ascension extremely hard.

    Bing a true immortal is the least priority in Ji Yuan''s mind of course since he is only 500 years of age. After bing a 9th realm half-immortal, his life span is no longer restricted to a mere 10 000 years but many times more!

    There Deste Celestial Fraternity consisted of the 7 major celestial orthodox sects, the 5 major unorthodox sects and the 3 forbidden divine pces.

    Right now, only 2 divine pces are left after the downfall of the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    The two remaining divine pces are naturally the Water Melody Pce that is led by Shui Xisi and the Hundred Flower Divine Flower that is being led by Hua Baiyue.

    Out of the 7 major orthodox cultivation sects, there are 5 of them that are particrly close to Ji Yuan; they are the Mo n, Hua Wuwu''s Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the Xue Qianxue''s Celestial Orthodox Sect, Sword Saintess Yuluo''s Profound Heaven Sword Manor and Jin Yuyan''s Mystic Profound Pill.

    As for the 5 major unorthodox cultivation sects, there are 2 that are quite friendly toward Ji Yuan. One of them is naturally Ling Feiyue''s Blue Spirit Moon Sect and Shen Qin''s Astonishing Sword Manor.

    Before Ji Yuan had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he had actually forced the other 3 unorthodox cultivation sects, the Dark Solstice Sect, the ck Iron Fortress and the Quad Alliance Sect to submit to the Blue Moon Spirit Sect at which he is also the Dark Lord.

    With more than half of all the cultivation holynds submitting to Ji Yuan, the rest of the cultivation holynds are only too eager to bootlick to Ji Yuan.

    And behind these cultivation holynds, are thousands of cultivation sects too.

    Without using a single force, just like that, Ji Yuan has been appointed as the Alliance Leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity and today was his ceremony of getting this appointment.

    Thest time Ji Yuan had remembered seeing such arge congregation was at Xue Qianxue''s Sacred Maiden Ceremony and he had to pay a heavy bribe to obtain a bronze seat at the main hall.

    30 years of losing thends west of the dividing river but 30 yearster, thends east of the dividing river had finally been conquered!

    This was the great wheel of fortune!

    And Ji Yuan naturally remembered the bribe that he had to pay to obtain a seat for the Sacred Maiden Ceremony.

    So he had limited the number of seats inside the main hall to 10 000, dividing it into gold, silver and bronze sects.

    In order to obtain a seat, naturally the cultivators have to pay a ''reasonable'' bribe.

    Hua Wuwu looked at him with a wry smile, "I still remember that I am the one that have forked with your bribe for the Sacred Maiden Ceremony. Don''t forget to repay me."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He had suddenly remembered that his bribe hade from Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.

    "You know," he protested immediately. "I didn''t me you that time for calling me a maiden that time¡­"

    Naturally his protests were ignored by Hua Wuwu.

    "About that," Ji Yuan grinned to Hua Wuwu. "You don''t mind giving me a share of the gifts, right? After all, they are for me."

    Hua Wuwu giggled softly as she looked at the other giggling maidens who were with her and Ling Feiyue was giggling the happiest.

    Then she giggled to Ji Yuan, "The gifts to obtain a seat is for my Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and it isn''t for you. As for the gifts that are meant for you, your maidens will have to check for any inappropriate gifts first."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Inappropriate gifts? Such as?"

    Hua Wuwu chuckled, "Such as any Carnation Goddess Paintings that can lead you astray."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Lovely Empress interrupted, "Ji Yuan, this should be the least of your concerns. Have you finished rehearsing your speech to everyone?"

    Shui Xisi asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Yeah. Why don''t you recite your speech to us first?"

    Ji Yuan grinned to all of them, "I''m sorry to tell all of you that my speech is secret. You will all know my speechter. Haha¡­"

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens: ¡­

    The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled divinely to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, let your senior sister take a look at your speech. Maybe I can help you. I won''t tell the others. You don''t want to listen to your senior sister anymore?"

    Ji Yuan firmly grinned, "No."

    The Smiling Divine Maiden: ¡­

    "Go and die, Ji Yuan!"

    Then he had ran off as heughed jovially.

    Fairy Ye Chengxi said weakly to the other maidens, "I saw him reciting his speech for more than a week now and he was always grinning to himself."

    Xue Qianxue took a weak look at Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Sword Saintess Yuluo, "I have a bad feeling about this."

    Shangguan Yan quietly looked at Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, Zhi Jiugong and Feng Minyue, "Same here as well¡­"

    As for Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Little Jie''Er, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and Ruan Songci, they were all listening weakly to Ji Yuan''s conversations with the rest of the maidens; for the past 1 week, Ji Yuan was indeed more delighted with reciting his ceremony speech than banging them. And they all wondered what Ji Yuan would say.

 Chapter 1217 The Holy Table

    <h4>Chapter 1217 The Holy Table</h4>

    There were thousands of cultivators that were presented at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and it easier numbered more than a hundred thousand.

    If Ji Yuan''s coronation as Alliance Leader was not so rush, it could even attract 10 times more cultivators toe to offer their best wishes to Ji Yuan.

    Not every one could afford a flying mount or afford to pay to take a profound ship to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    The cultivation sects that are in the Deste Celestial Fraternity actually numbered more than thirty thousands. Of course, most of the cultivation sects are actually quite small and many do not even have a golden celestial.

    Basically, the major regions of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are all controlled by mostly the 12 cultivation holynds of both the orthodox and unorthodox cultivation sects.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan was wearing an upper mask as he joined a table at the outer hall.

    The outer hall was where the cultivators that could not afford the gold, silver and bronze tokens to enter the inner hall were all seated.

    And they easily outnumbered the cultivators that were in the inner hall by more than 20 times.

    At this part of the hall, there was a long flight of steps that had ten thousand steps and it was connected to the inner hall where the coronation was to be held.

    As therge gates to the inner hall was opened, the cultivators from the outer hall could see the cultivators that were seated along the inner hall steps.

    The upper 3000 steps were reserved for the cultivation sects that could afford a gold, silver or a bronze token to sit inside.

    The first 300 steps were for the cultivation sects with the gold tokens.

    The next 1000 steps were for the cultivation sects with the silver tokens.

    The next 3000 steps were for the cultivation sects with the bronze tokens.

    At the end of the 10 000 steps was the tform where the coronation ceremony would be held.

    The whole inner and outer halls were all crowded. The entire ce was filled with endless loud chatters and jovialughter.

    As soon as Ji Yuan spotted an empty seat in the outer hall, he quickly sat down at the table.

    The table was quiterge and there were 18 other cultivators that were already sitting there.

    The table at the outer hall wasrger, able to amodate as many as 20 cultivators. As the tables in the inner hall, it was more like benches and all the cultivators in there had their own personal seats.

    Ji Yuan began to grin as he said to the cultivators that were sitting at the same table as him, "Hahaha. It is my pleasure to meet all of you."

    The 18 cultivators took a look at Ji Yuan and they continued to chat among themselves.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Hello. I am talking to all of you."

    A cultivator with a handsome beard frowned as he said to Ji Yuan, "You don''t even have a beard and it''s no wonder why you are hiding your face¡­"

    "That''s because I have a beautiful face and that''s why I am hiding my face," Ji Yuan started to protest loudly.

    When Ji Yuan had said that, many of the cultivators at the same table as him, began tough jovially.

    A cultivator said coldly to Ji Yuan, "Do you know that you are here to attend Savior Ji Yuan''s coronation and yet you havee in a mortal-step robe? Are you kidding us?"

    Another cultivator mocked at Ji Yuan, "The fact that I can''t read your cultivation realm shows that you are at least a 6th realm cultivator and you can''t even afford a mystic-step robe?"

    Ji Yuan protested loudly, "I used to have two superior robes but s, they were all destroyed in battle."

    He was naturally referring to his mystic toga and his golden emperor robe.

    He sighed heavily, "s, only my trust mortal-step robe that has apanied me for the past 500 years is my trustworthy robe¡­"

    "You got to be kidding me!" A cultivator stared at Ji Yuan.

    Another added, "You didn''t change your robe for 500 years?! What the heck?! Are you too poor or something?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I used to be poor but now I am rich."

    When he had said that, many of the cultivators at his table began tough jovially at him.

    And their jovialughter had even attracted the attention of the other cultivators on the other tables.

    "This cultivator didn''t even change his robe for 500 years and he is a golden celestial¡­"

    "if you are poor, why don''t you go to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that had recently ended? Or are you afraid?"

    "Or you have run to the mountains when the Evil Cultivation Pce hade?"

    Many of the cultivators that were at Ji Yuan''s table and nearby tables were not golden celestials and they were starting to despise this poor golden celestial that was too poor to afford a proper robe.

    "We are all wearing at least a mystic robe for this asion and you have actuallye in a mortal-step?"

    "Aren''t you ashamed of yourself?"

    "We can''t afford the celestium silks or the celestium armorspared to the cultivators in the inner hall but at least we are all dressed better than you."

    "He must havee to here to obtain the good luck of the Savior Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I bet that hees here to goggle at the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­"

    Ji Yuan replied, "Actually I had hugged the waists of both Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue before."

    When he had said that, many of the cultivators were allughing jovially at him and it quickly spread to even more cultivators.

    "He said that he had hugged the waists of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue and the Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue¡­ what a joke¡­"

    "This guy can really boast¡­"

    "He can certainly boast more than me¡­"

    An elderly cultivator at the other table shouted to Ji Yuan, "You may be a golden celestial but we are not afraid of you. Do you dare to tell us your name and the name of your cultivation sect?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am Ji Yuan."

    When he had said that, hundreds of cultivators were all roaring with jovialughter and many of the cultivators wereughing so heartily that they were in tears.

    "He says that he is Ji Yuan?"

    "Do you believe that?"

    "He is dreaming that he is Savior Ji Yuan who is our hero for defeating the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce? Hahahaha¡­"

    "He isn''t afraid of pping his face when the real Ji Yuan hase¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I am really Ji Yuan."

    Hundreds of cultivators were allughing jovially.

    "He says he is Ji Yuan. So am I. Hahaha¡­"

    "Everyone wants to be Ji Yuan nowadays, even my kid¡­"

    "This golden celestial is too shameless¡­"

    "Well, Ji Yuan, you havee to the wrong table. You ought to go up to the inner hall. But they won''t allow you to enter through the gates of the inner hall if you don''t have at least a bronze token."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Do I need a token to enter the inner hall when I am Ji Yuan himself?"

    "What? He doesn''t even know that he needs a token to enter the inner hall¡­"

    "He is too hopeless¡­"

    "Why are we talking to this idiot that ims to be Ji Yuan?"

    All of a sudden, an extremely alluring maiden in golden celestium silk robe was standing at the steps that bordered between the inner and outer hall and she was the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, "Ji Yuan! Why are you down there? Do you know that everyone is waiting for you up here?"

    She was apanied by the equally extremely beautiful Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue who was dressed in a white celestium silk dress and robe, giving her the appearance of a heavenly maiden.

    Ling Feiyue said coldly as she rolled her beautiful golden eyes, "That man in a mask. We have spotted you alright. Come up now or I will kick you down the steps to the mountains below the deste mists.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he shed to join Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    As he joined them, he purposely put his hands on their waists.

    It was only then that many of the cultivators were gasping and looking quite ashamed that this masked man was indeed Ji Yuan himself.

    "He¡­ he is really Savior Ji Yuan¡­"

    "I am so blind¡­"

    "Hey, what are you doing? That seat where Savior Ji Yuan just sit earlier is mine!"

    "Get out of that seat! I want to enjoy the blessings of Ji Yuan¡­"

    "Ji Yuan actually sits at the same table as us¡­"

    "Our table is the holy table now¡­"

 Chapter 1218 Ji Yuan the Alliance Leader (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1218 Ji Yuan the Alliance Leader (1)</h4>

    Ji Yuan was actually surprised that he had been recalled by Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and the others to his official seat so quickly as the ceremony had not started yet.

    He was hoping to find some of his brothers from his poorer region at the lower hall''s steps.

    Ling Feiyue reminded him, "Everyone is waiting to talk to you. Do you have to wait until the veryst minute?"

    Then she quietly looked at the direction of the Celestial Orthodox Sect as she whispered to him, "Matriarch Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin are all over there. Don''t you want to say a word to them?"

    Ji Yuan saw that both Han Yuchi and Zhao Songjin were dressed beautiful in golden celestium silk dress just like many of his maidens.

    Zhao Songjin looked astonishingly beautiful and she kept looking at him.

    Their eyes had suddenly locked when Ji Yuan had secretly looked in her direction.

    Ji Yuan muttered to Ling Feiyue, "You know. I don''t see anyone of you wearing such high level profound robes when you are in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but you are all wearing your best armor now. This is a little ridiculous¡­"

    Ling Feiyue chucked softly as she interrupted him, "Did you just got your ego bruised by your pathetic looking robe just now?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Damn. How did she know?

    All of a sudden, Xue Qianxue and Sword Saintess Yuluo had both put on a beautiful celestium ck and gold robe on him as they giggled together.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "This is for me? Isn''t this erm¡­ a saint-step mystic celestium robe?"

    Saint-step mystic celestium robe is extremely rare and it can even bankrupt a cultivation holynd in order to obtain one.

    Sword Saintess Yuluo, Little Princess, Feng Minyue and many of the maidens were allughing jovially as they nodded.

    Feng Minyue smiled as she looked at Shui Xisi, "Actually this is from my Sister Saintess Fan Yuqing. It is a gift to you from her and Lu Qingyun."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "They sure are rich."

    Shui Xisiughed, "Compared to the Nine Celestial Fraternity, our Deste Celestial Fraternity is extremely poor. Why do you think our celestial fraternity is called the Deste Celestial Fraternity? Their Nine Celestial Fraternity is directly under the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm and is the richest celestial fraternity in the entire Celestial Realm."

    The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu chuckled, "Although that is the case but we have Ji Yuan in the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Like Feng Minyue, she was also from the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

    When she had said that, there were many jovialughter.

    Yun Chiughed too as she cheekily said, "And we also have the Great Demon God in this Deste Celestial Fraternity too as the deste profound energies here are stronger here than the other celestial fraternities."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard her.

    He muttered weakly, "Is this¡­ supposed to be afort for me?"

    Then he quickly turned to ask Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue, "Where are my Brother Lu Qingyun and your Sister-Saintess Fan Yuqing now?"

    Shui Xisi sighed softly, "My Sister Yuqing felt guilty that she was unable to help you in a timely manner and you had already dispatched of the Great Demon God. Therefore, she had decided to return to the Nine Celestial Fraternity."

    Feng Minyue said weakly, "She got bored already."

    Then she said in a low voice, "She says that you have inspired her to try to dominate the Nine Celestial Fraternity again and she is now trying again."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws nearly dropped when he had heard her but he quickly said weakly, "Well, I wish her good luck then. Hope she is able to seed this time."

    He looked a little disappointed that he was unable to see them today.

    "Did Brother Lu Qingyun have anything to say to me?"

    Shui Xisi saw his disappointment and immediately whispered to the other maidens, "Tsk, tsk. He is just asking because he hopes that Lu Qingyun can concoct a profound pill for him to restore his beard."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to tell the whole world about this?

    Shui Xisi then giggled to Ji Yuan, "He says you look perfectly alright without a beard and you don''t need his miraculous profound pill for that."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He cursed softly to himself: Damn. After I have helped Brother Lu Qingyun to find his Maiden Leng Qiuyue in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, he didn''t even bother to return me a favor¡­"

    Of course, he remembered that Lu Qingyun had prevented the Asura Cannons from being used by the Evil Cultivation Pce and this had helped him tremendously. But he still could not help but to mutter a soft curse as he had ced hisst hope of regaining his beard on Lu Qingyun who is a 7th realm alchemist.

    Shui Xisi smiled as she added, "Oh. By the way. Number 3 isn''t dead yet. My Sister Yuqing had saved her and she is taking her to the Nine Celestial Fraternity to fulfil her goal of dominating the Nine Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Well, I hope that she don''t get bored halfway though."

    "Ji Yuan!!! Ji Yuan!!!" A handsome man in a beautiful white and purple heavy robe was suddenly making his way to Ji Yuan."

    He was naturally Shen Qin and he was shouting to the cultivators that were stopping him from approaching Ji Yuan, "Savior Ji Yuan is my brother. I mean Alliance Leader Ji Yuan is my brother!"

    Then he was also gasping with shock, "Maiden Xiaoxiao, you are also here. And you are so beautiful today¡­"

    He had suddenly spotted Ding Xiaoxiao who was sitting next to Yun Chi and she was dressed in a feathery celestium dress that caused her to look extremely heavenly.

    Ji Yuan called out to Shen Qin, "Hahaha, it is my Brother Shen Qin!"

    Shen Qinughed heartily as he quickly greeted her but his eyes were already looking at Ding Xiaoxiao.

    Then he chuckled to Ji Yuan, "Brother Ji Yuan, it seems that Maiden Xiaoxiao is also here. She has a gold token too?"

    Ji Yuan patted Shen Qin on his shoulder as he said solemnly, "Maiden Xiaoxiao is my maiden now. Therefore, it isn''t surprising that she is able to sit with us here."

    Shen Qin was also patting Ji Yuan on his shoulder as he grinned, "I know. You are only pretending to be engaged to her so as to weed out the rest of the evil cultivators from the Evil Cultivation Pce. This is too big a sacrifice for you. But do me a favor alright? Don''t hurt Maiden Xiaoxiao and don''t give her a hard time too."

    Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly as he tried to think of ways to cover up his lies.

    Luckily for him, he spotted Ling Tianshui arriving with her patriarch Chen Yi as they arrived. And he quickly excused himself with Ling Feiyue as he went to greet the continency from the Blue Spirit Moon Sect.

    They had arrived together with Mo Ming, Mo Bei and the others from the continency of the Mo n.

    Or rather, they had a long chat beforeing to this ce.

    Ji Yuan, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue quickly greeted their elders and seniors.

    Patriarch Chen Yiughed as he said to Ji Yuan, "Today our Dark Lord Ji Yuan is going to do our Blue Spirits Moon Sect proud by be the Alliance Leader!"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he greeted Patriarch Chen Yi and he winked at Ling Tianshui who was also looking coyly at him.

    Mo Beiughed as he asked Ji Yuan by interrupting his moments with the Blue Spirits Moon Sect, "Little rascal, have you prepared your speech already?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Hahaha. I have been preparing for more than a week for my awesome speech."

    "Well, what are you going to say to everyone then?" Mo Bei asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Senior. You have been asking me for a week now. I prefer to keep the details of my speech a secret until it is time for me to address everyone."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Everyone: ¡­

    Mo Bei weakly said to him, "Don''t give us a heart attack then. You know that I''m only going to give you some advice to make your speech a little better."

    Ji Yuanughed as he patted Mo Bei on his shoulder, "No need, senior. I have prepared a surprise for you with my speech. Hahaha¡­"

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Don''t screw me¡­"

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had spotted the continency of the Mystic Profound Pavilion and the Emperor Hall Sect that was being led by Jin Yuyan, Ji Hao and Li Ye that had just arrived through another entrance at the upper steps.

    Ji Hao quickly greeted Ji Yuan excitingly, "Father! I am so proud of you. You are a true hero¡­"

    All of a sudden he had broken into a cold sweat as his golden eyes caught Ding Xiaoxiao who was sitting at a corner.

    He began to stammer, "Father, I have finally found the maiden that had injured me¡­"

    Ji Yuan began to look sheepishly when he saw that Ji Hao was staring at Ding Xiaoxiao and he quickly said to him, "That is only a friendly spar. You are a golden celestial so you won''t die so easily. Also, I have asked her to train you up. Hahaha¡­"

    Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi who had walked forward to greet Ji Hao and the elders of the Emperor Hall Sect were both shaking their heads sheepishly at Ji Yuan''s lies.

    Ji Hao had a sudden realization, "s. It is merely to train me up. I get it now."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he said to himself: Actually, you don''t get it. My life is currently very messy now.

    Then he saw that the continency from the Burning Heavens Pavilion had also arrived; he didn''t recognize any of them as they had a change of leadership and Ji Yuan had in the past killed their Elder the Saint Wu Heng and several of their cultivators.

    The Burning Heavens Pavilion is also one of the 7 major orthodox cultivation sect and they had the gold token to sit at the gold seats.

    Great Saint Jian Kang from the Profound Heaven Sword Manor had suddenly emerged from the other entrance of the inner hall with his continency and he wasughing jovially as he walked to greet Ji Yuan, "My son-inw Ji Yuan! Congrattions on bing the Alliance Leader!"

    When he hade, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Ji Hao immediately greeted him.

    "Father!"

    "Grandfather!"

    Great Saint Jian Kangughed, "My daughter. My grandson. How are you all?"

    But before he had obtained an answer from them, he was already looking at Ji Yuan and was patting him, "You know, Son-in-Law Ji Yuan. I''ve always believed in you! Now that you are going to be the Alliance Leader, don''t forget my Profound Heaven Manor!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Have you forgotten how you had pursued me to kill me in the past?

    And had even separated me from my Yuxian? (Sword Saintess Yuluo).

    But of course, Ji Yuan did not say that aloud and he was quick to forgive this slight since he is still alive.

    In the cultivation stories, the MCs will often revenge in a vengeful way by massacring everyone from the same cultivation sect or n for this slight.

    But not Ji Yuan if there is no real harm that is being caused to him.

    He was someone that could sit down with his enemies after a good fight and then suddenly be brothers with them.

    Of course, not all enemies are repentant such as Jin Yilong even after Ji Yuan had repeatedly spared his life.

    Mo Beiughed as he interrupted Ji Yuan and Great Saint Jian Kang, "The opening ceremony is about to start! And everyone is already here! Ji Yuan, are you ready for your greatest moment?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course! I am really excited and looking forward to this!"

 Chapter 1219 Ji Yuan the Alliance Leader (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1219 Ji Yuan the Alliance Leader (2)</h4>

    As Ji Yuan was waiting for the ceremony to start, he saw the Great Immortal Rohan was talking to Destiny and he was frowning all of a sudden.

    Destiny doesn''t like to talk much and her presence was usually zero.

    Therefore, she was not surrounded by Ji Yuan''s other maidens except for asionally, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie''Er as they were acquainted with her.

    The Great Immortal Rohan was trying to find a strong backer and it was obvious to him and the Goddess Alyssa that Destiny was the strongest immortal around.

    Although Destiny didn''t bother much with the Great Immortal Rohan, there was a sour feeling in Ji Yuan''s heart.

    And this caused him to frown.

    Technically Destiny was not his maiden and he had no right to intervene in her affairs.

    He was saying to himself: As the Romantic God now, I have the right to im all the beautiful maidens around.

    Xiang Li giggled: That''s my big brother! Well said!

    Anyang frowned instead: That sounds like what a bad guy will say. My lord,tely your ego is too inted especially with that Romantic God title of yours. Now you are even thinking of banging a true divinity like Destiny. Stop dreaming, my lord. You will never be able to seed. This is already your limit. Quit your egoistic behavior if you still want to live.

    Ji Yuanughed as he said Anyang: I do have a death wish. You''ll never know unless you''ve tried.

    Destiny had suddenly caught Ji Yuan looking at her and she was thinking: He has finally noticed me? Why didn''t he look for me for the past 2 weeks? Don''t he knows that he is the very reason why I am here?

    She was trembling lightly when she had thought of Ji Yuan taking the Immortal Fairy Lucia and Ruan Songci as his new maidens.

    She muttered to herself: In what way am I inferior to that Fairy Lucia?

    Then she was also looking at Ding Xiaoxiao who was talking to Yun Chi: And in what way am I inferior to Ding Xiaoxiao that tries to kill him?

    She had suddenly realized that shecked the experience in this kind of matter and was at a total loss.

    She sighed to herself: Maybe I have left him a bad impression of myself¡­

    In the meantime, the thousands of cultivators below the lower steps were all goggling at the upper steps excitingly.

    Actually many of them didn''te here to just look at Ji Yuan but also at the many beautiful celestial maidens that were presented.

    They had mostlye to admire the great beauty of the Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue, Dark Mistress Ling Feiyue and Fairy Ye Chengxi.

    But they had never thought that they would be able to find so many astonishing beautiful great beauties at the upper steps as well.

    It was not to say that the cultivators at the upper steps were not doing the same as well.

    This wondrous scene of so many great beauties that gathered in one ce was a truly wondrous sight that many of the celestial cultivators won''t be able to forget for a long time and even pass down the generations!

    It was such great honor to be able to be able to attend the Savior Ji Yuan''s coronation as Alliance Leader and to be able to admire the picturesque scene of so many beautiful maidens in the same ce too!

    Also, there were even immortals attending this congregation as well and this made the entire event all the more prestigious.

    Many of the celestial cultivators had tried to find many ways to attend this congregation in short notice.

    If it was not for the short notice that was given, there would easily be 10 times or more cultivators that were presented.

    The cultivators that got the upper steps were d that their gifts were well spent while the lower steps cultivators werementing that they did not obtain the upper steps seats to take a closer look at Savior Ji Yuan and the many beautiful maidens that were presented.

    The many beautiful maidens on the upper steps were not just Ji Yuan''s maidens but hundreds of celestial maidens as well that dressed in their best finest outfit.

    Of course, Ji Yuan''s maidens were even more beautiful as they put on their best celestium silk dresses and robes for this asion.

    Even Ji Yuan was moved when he saw them and he even wanted to bang all of them at the same time.

    "I have heard that Fary Ye Chengxi has a junior sister and she is Shangguan Yan. I''ve never thought that Shangguan Yan is actually so beautiful¡­"

    "That is because Shangguan Yan has never stepped out of the Five Heavens Peaks until recently. That''s why."

    "Isn''t that Little Princess¡­ she is so mesmerzing..."

    "Who that maiden with that divine smile and she is so beautiful¡­ and she isn''t ranked as a top great beauty?"

    "That is the Matriarch Divine Pce of the Water Melody Pce?! She is so beautiful and young? She isn''t an old hag?!"

    "That three enticing maidens with the slightly pointed ears, they are so beautiful as well¡­"

    "I''ve heard that they are from the Spirit Divine Realm¡­"

    "i''ve long admired the Sword Saintess Jian Yuluo and she is here too. She''s so beautiful..."

    "I have heard that Great Saintess Feng Minyue and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu are also here. They are the renowned top great beauties of the Nine Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    And many more gossips.

    Everyone was excited and was all waiting for the ceremony to start.

    At the holy table below, the number of chairs had suddenly increased to 100 and kept increasing as everyone viewed the table that Ji Yuan had just sat near it to be the holy table.

    These cultivators that had just offended Ji Yuan were not afraid that they would get punished for offending Ji Yuan earlier.

    It was because Ji Yuan had the reputation of being someone that was unruly as well and he was not easily offended.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, among themon cultivators, Ji Yuan''s reputation had long been spread far and wide by his many ''drinking'' brothers.

    Many of his drinking brothers had even boasted to the others about their rtionship with Ji Yuan.

    "At that time, I didn''t know that he will be the Savior Ji Yuan. I''ve punched him in the face. But he wasn''t offended and asked me to try harder. Hahaha¡­"

    "Damn that Ji Yuan. I once fought with him over a gold coin that is dropped on the ground. After I have stepped on his fingers for picking that gold coin, I have realized that I am stepping on Sword Saint Ji Yuan''s hand. But he merely said to me, I am faster than you and justughed. I have thought that I was going to die at that time for offending a sword saint but nothing happened to me¡­"

    "Ji Yuan fought with his fists just like us and he didn''t use his sword fingers or profound strength to bully us. We only realize that he is the Sword Saint Ji Yuan after he got drunk¡­"

    "Hahaha¡­ I once scolded him as being shameless for stealing my beer mug and had even punched him away. But I wasn''t a golden celestial and he was. He had no air at all¡­"

    "I had insulted him many times in the past but he merely insulted me back¡­"

    "We have good fightst time. You know that he can easily defeat me but he is merely punching me for every punch that I have given him. No more and no less¡­"

    "Damn this Ji Yuan. I had once fought 30 duels with him and each time, he barely defeated me. It was onlyter that I know that he is a Sword Saint and he purposely let me think that I can defeat him if I work harder a little more on my sword. In the end, I had lost 30 rounds of drinks to him after I had found out about his deception. But we had a goodugh after this¡­"

    "I had thought that he is merely a pretty face but he is full of vulgarities when he talks¡­"

    "This Ji Yuan is a funny chap. I still remember that time he insulted a saint in front of us by saying that he had no beard. At that time, he wasn''t a saint yet. Then he got beaten up and even dragged us to be beaten by that saint too¡­"

    "None of our drinking brothers know how strong Ji Yuan really is. One time, a powerful young master and his group beat us all up. Then I saw Ji Yuan inside a trial with that young master and his group. And I saw Ji Yuan beating them all up instead and he had only used one stroke each. It was only then that I had realized that Ji Yuan was only serious when he was inside a trial. You have no idea how fast his fists and swords are¡­"

    "He talks funny¡­"

    "Ji Yuan can take insults very well¡­ I still amazed by it¡­"

    "I know Ji Yuan. I''ve drink with him before. I''ve always thought that he is a gay and now he have so many maidens with him¡­"

    "I was there when he insulted Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue¡­"

    "I remembered him insulting the Matriarch of the Water Melody Pce¡­"

    "I still can''t believe that he is the Alliance Leader now. But if it is Ji Yuan, then I am fully supportive of him. He has good manners when drinking and it means that he has good character as well¡­"

    An old man with a long white beard had suddenly stood up on the upper steps and said to everyone, "The ceremony is about to start now."

    This old man was naturally the Diviner Mo Ming, the most respected senior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    When he had made the announcement, the whole ce broke out into thunderous apuds and cheers. And many of the cultivators were already on their feet as they did not want to miss anything.

    Many of the cultivators were even shouting loudly, "Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan! Ji Yuan! Savior Ji Yuan! Sword Saint Ji Yuan! Hail Ji Yuan! Hero Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan''s maidens were all looking proudly at his direction and were smiling with great delight as they could feel the excitement in the air for Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was never a great dao master. In fact, his cultivation sucks but he has be the hero in the hearts of many in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    Actually Ji Yuan was also a hero in many worlds, especially the Spirit Divine Realm and the Dark Abyssal Realm.

    To the majority of the cultivators, Ji Yuan didn''t represent a hardworking cultivator who cultivated all the time to be a savior of the Deste Celestial Realm but he represented all the good-for-nothing cultivators that wasted their cultivation time to be a savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

 Chapter 1220 The Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan

    Chapter 1220 The Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan

    Diviner Mo Ming raised his profound voice as he said to everyone, "Today is most holy day of our Deste Celestial Fraternity as we are choosing an Alliance Leader to represent all of us in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Naturally, we are choosing the Great Savior Ji Yuan of our Deste Celestial Fraternity to be the Alliance Leader. As everyone knows, Great Savior Ji Yuan is the one that had defeated the Great Demon God while we are helpless and in our darkness hour of need, he was there for us¡­"

    "¡­ therefore we are choosing Great Savior Ji Yuan to be our Alliance Leader, to represent all of us. Shall we now, let Great Savior speaks to all of us?"

    When he had said that, there were thunderous ps and apuds from the thousands of cultivators and everyone was shouting aloud once more for Ji Yuan, "Great Savior Ji Yuan! Alliance Leader Ji Yuan!"

    Ji Yuan immediately stepped forward and he was grinning as he raised his profound voice to address everyone, "Well, it isn''t what I am expecting. Hahaha¡­"

    He was actually expecting everyone to bow down in fear in front of him just like in many cultivation stories and then he would be the rule them because he was the most powerful and he filled everyone with dread.

    He had imagined himself as the most badass cultivator ever and a most arrogant one.

    Well, that was just a thought.

    He also relished the great attention that he was receiving from everyone as heughed aloud, "I didn''t expect to be standing here today as everyone''s savior. I am just the average cultivator like all of you here and I try to do my best for the Deste Celestial Fraternity¡­"

    Shui Xisi who were sitting very near to the Lovely Empress, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess were whispering to them, "He is only pretending to be humble¡­"

    All the other maidens quickly agreed with her.

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he had very sharp ears and he was frowning to himself: I notice that these 5 maidens seem to have formed a new gossip group on their own and they are as close as sisters nowadays¡­

    Then he added to himself: It isn''t surprisinging from Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi or even Xue Qianxue and Little Princess. But why is Lu Jiangsu among them?!

    He was naturally referring to the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu of course.

    But he quicklyughed aloud as he addressed everyone with his profound voice, "The reason why I am so lucky to be the savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity is because I cultivate hard like all of you. Maybe I cultivate just a little harder more than anyone, cultivating without any breaks or leisure¡­"

    Many of Ji Yuan''s maidens and even Mo Bei had a stunned look when they had heard Ji Yuan; they all know that Ji Yuan hates to cultivate.

    Ling Feiyue whispered to Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue. "Now I know why he doesn''t want to let us know his speech¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he continued to say, "Of course, being more hardworking than anyone else isn''t just the key to be a top cultivator of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. The main key is that for 500 years, I have no maidens or dao cultivation partner. Do you want to know why? It is because a maiden will only slow down the speed of your sword! Don''t say that I didn''t warn all of you! As for the maidens here, the same goes for you as well. Men will slow down your cultivation speed!"

    All of Ji Yuan''s maidens: ¡­

    Xue Qianxue frowned softly to Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and the Lovely Empress, "Is he whitewashing his history?"

    Ji Yuan continued tough jovially, "If a sword cultivator like me can be a hero, so can all of you as well! All you need is plenty of guts to be fight against your oppressors!"

    Little Princess hummed to the Lovely Empress, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, "Yeah. It takes a lot of guts to be a cannon fodder for the others. Foolhardy bravery."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    What the heck are they doing over there and gossiping about my beautiful speech?

    Ji Yuan continued to say heartily to the thousands of cultivators that were listening below the steps, "But since I have been nominated as the Alliance Leader, I guess that I will ept this position then. But I think the title of Alliance Leader isn''t that fitting for me. Hahahaha¡­."

    Everyone: ???

    Mo Bei smiled weakly to Diviner Mo Ming, "I guess he wants to title himself as the Emperor of the Deste Celestial Fraternity."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "So I am thinking of styling myself as the Supreme Leader instead. What do all of you think? This sounds like a more humble title, right? I am really a humble cultivator."

    The Lovely Empress whispered to Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue. "Why don''t he call himself the Evil Supreme Leader instead?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming quickly interrupted Ji Yuan, "I think that Alliance Leader isn''t too fitting for our Great Savior Ji Yuan now. But I think that Supreme Leader isn''t a good title either. How about the Great Alliance Leader instead?"

    Then he whispered to Ji Yuan, "Supreme Leader?! Ji Yuan, we are asking to be nominal leader and you want to rule over us? You have better take my suggestion or else you have pay back the Mo n the 1 billion spirit stones that you''ve owed us."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Heughed weakly as he addressed all the cultivators, "Well. I think that Great Alliance Leader actually sounds better. Hahaha¡­"

    Ji Yuan then moved on as heughed with great delight, "Well, as you all know. It has been a long time since the basicws of the Deste Celestial Fraternity has been changed¡­"

    There is a famous basicw that is popr in the Deste Celestial Fraternity; if the offense against another cultivator isn''t a killing feud then the other cultivator is allowed to hide away for 100 years and everything will be forgiven.

    Ji Yuan grinned yfully as he dered heartily, "From today onward, cultivators without a beard is not to be despised. Anyone that despises another cultivator that is without a beard is not only an offense in the Deste Celestial Fraternity but also against me. Hahaha¡­"

    Actually 1/3 of the men presented had already shaved off their beards beforeing to this congregation and it was getting more popr each day as more and more men shaved off their beards.

    Best of all, they even get praises from their maidens or dao cultivation partners for doing so.

    Ling Feiyue whispered to Shui Xisi, Xue Qianxue, the Lovely Empress and little Princess, "Why is thisw not surprising to me?"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had grown solemn as he said. "As all of you know. There are already too many deaths that had urred recently. Everyone suffers some forms of losses whether it is small or big. I know that many of you are exacting your vendetta against one another. I am not asking you to bury your hatchet but if you can exercise some mercies or kindness to your enemies for them to repent, it would be good. A long time ago, maybe you are all rtives. Do you have to kill all the unrted people? Spare the innocents and give your enemies a chance to do their penances."

    Then he said to everyone, "Have it ever ur to all of you that all the cultivation stories that teach you to kill the entire n, the entire cultivation sect and engaged in all kinds of revenge attacks are actually the work of the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce?"

    "It is because the Great Demon God wants all of you to kill another person over a little slight. Only by making all of you cruel and blood thirsty, can he stop your cultivation and allows the heart demon to grow within you. Do you really think that the Heavenly Dao won''t punish the evil people?"

    "If you have been brainwashed by the bloodletting rubbish then it is time for you to wake up. The cultivation stories are fake because the reason why you cultivate, is to be at the same level as the Heavenly Dao. But if you derivate from the Heavenly Dao, then death only awaits you. Cultivate your heart first then your body. Then you can be a strong cultivator. Also, we can make our Deste Celestial Fraternity a better ce for the future generations too!"

    When Ji Yuan had said this, many of his maidens were startled; it doesn''t sound like what Ji Yuan would say normally.

    Ji Yuan was now grinning as he said that as he waited for his speech to sink in to all the thousands of cultivators.

    Ruan Songci and Shui Qingqing looked extremely impressed by him.

    And so did many of his admirers.

    Then he was also grinning as he looked in the direction of the Mystic Eye Sect whose cultivators were all trying to record what he had just said.

    The smarter maidens of Ji Yuan immediately realized that they had just been duped by Ji Yuan and he was only trying to impress everyone with his heroic speech.

    The Lovely Empress cursed him softly, "This Ji Yuan is really nothing but a chatan¡­"

    Shui Xisi mmed her fist, "I totally agreed with you as well!"

    Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Xue Qianxue were looking at the two of them sheepishly and they were all thinking the same: The two of you are also chatans too¡­

 Chapter 1221 Ji Yuan, Stop Talking!

    Chapter 1221 Ji Yuan, Stop Talking!

    "¡­s, as you all know. Cultivation stories and other stories used to have a heroic MC. But it has now be the evil and cunning MC that will seed against all odds. Worse, these MCs seems to know everything that will ur. This isn''t human nature to know everything in advance. This is plot armor by the Great Demon God to make everyone distrust one another and to sow his discord among the cultivators. Therefore, we must stay united, have more meetings to settle our differences and to treat everyone politely, giving them respect¡­"

    "¡­ Never look down on the lowly cultivator. You never know what will happen in 30 years'' time if that cultivator will be the blessed son of the heavens¡­"

    "¡­ Never say to anyone that you are Mount Tai because you will meet with a greater Mount Tai instead¡­"

    "¡­ Never break a betrothal agreement because the other party will feel more motivated to surpass you for looking down upon him¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had said to this point, Destiny was secretly gasping softly and she was smiling all of a sudden.

    It was because Ji Yuan had just given her an idea about faking a betrothal agreement.

    Destiny thought and there was a slow smile on her beautiful countenance now: He says he can''t break it, right?

    Ji Yuan continued to chuckle as he continued, "As you all know, with great poweres great responsibility¡­"

    "¡­ if you want to be as awesome as me then you must be ready to raise your sword of justice against injustice¡­"

    Shui Xisi whispered to Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Xue Qianxue and the Lovely Empress, "He is literally trying to quote everything in all the cultivation stories in his speech. Can someone please take him off the stage? He is too shameless and look, even the other maidens can''t stand it any longer."

    Ling Feiyue weakly said, "I can''t stand it too. I didn''t think he will go babbling so endlessly¡­"

    Xue Qianxue was also awkwardly saying, "Why did he be like this? Did you all corrupt him while he was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth?"

    Little Princess whispered softly, "I think you didn''t understand him enough¡­"

    Xue Qianxue hummed unhappily, "If I am not with a child, I also want to go to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with all of you."

    Little Princessughed softly, "At least you got a chance to grow bigger breasts when you are outside. Ji Yuan likes bigger breasts."

    Xue Qianxue: ¡­

    Ji Yuan continued on his speech with a jovial chuckle, "Did you feel that you are going to have a breakthrough now after hearing my speech?"

    When he said that hundreds of cultivators were shouting loudly, "We feel a breakthrough now!"

    Ji Yuan was now imagining he was giving a great dao lecture and everyone that can hear him would be obtaining a cultivation breakthrough just by listening to his words of great dao.

    When Ji Yuan''s maidens had heard him and the hundreds of cultivators responding to him about their cultivation breakthrough, they were a little speechless.

    It was because they all know that he did not have the ability to cause a cultivation breakthrough to anyone and he was trying to be a great dao master as he made this speech.

    Shui Xisi cursed the hundreds of cultivators below as she whispered to her group, "They are all delusional. This is merely a psychology thing. They actually believe in his words¡­ I can''t believe it."

    The Lovely Empress muttered weakly, "He really reads too many cultivation stories. If a person can cause a cultivation breakthrough just by talking then everyone will be a cultivation expert and there is no need to cultivate or to use any cultivation resources¡­"

    Then she had heard Shui Qingqing, Ruan Songci, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu and the others on the upper steps eximing too, "I think I am going to have a breakthrough too!"

    Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress: ¡­

    Ling Feiyue covered her face, "I can''t believe they will believe him¡­"

    Xue Qianxue muttered weakly, "Can someone drag him away?"

    Diviner Mo Ming had suddenly stepped in to pull Ji Yuan away as he said to everyone as he disyed his profound voice, "It is time for our banquet now. Let''s us all feast together under the same heaven!"

    JI Yuan panicky whispered to Diviner Mo Ming, "Old Senior, I haven''t thanked my parents yet¡­"

    Diviner Mo Ming interrupted him with a stare, "I don''t remember that you got any parents."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Well, I still got my family and friends to thank for¡­"

    Even Mo Bei had helped to pull Ji Yuan away as he said with a look of great disbelief, "Little Rascal! We are already gracious enough for you to talk for nearly an hour. Enough is enough already."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "But can''t you see the eager looks that are on everyone? They didn''t want me to stop talking."

    Mo Bei: ¡­

    Diviner Mo Ming: ¡­

    It was actually true that most of the cultivators did not want Ji Yuan to stop talking because they were all idolizing him.

    Even the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa were secretly listening to Ji Yuan''s speech as they hoped that they may unravel hints of his powerful cultivation.

    They were thinking about what Ji Yuan had said to them: Raise my sword of justice against the injustice?

    Ji Yuan could go on forever and most of the cultivators won''t even feel bored.

    Just as Diviner Mo Bei had dragged Ji Yuan away, Ji Yuan was still protesting softly. "Wait! Wait! I haven''t told them about my epic battles with the Great Demon God yet. They are all here to hear my epic battle with the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce. I don''t want to disappoint anyone¡­ this is the main point¡­ I''ll get to the main point straight away¡­"

    "¡­ erm, I ought to exin to everyone why the Great Immoral Rohan is joining us, right? And we have a n to give them a ce of refuge?"

    "¡­ I haven''t told them about the uing cmity yet. And it is the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods and how I would continue to protect everyone¡­"

    "¡­ I haven''t told anyone of my great ns for the Deste Celestial Fraternity as the Great Alliance Leader¡­"

    "¡­ I forget to mention that I will be shifting my Emperor Hall Sect and Orthodox Sword Sect to the Pentecost Mountains and Hua Wuwu has agreed to let me have 3 mountain peaks as my base¡­"

    "¡­ I also have not thanked all my supporters yet¡­"

    Diviner Mo Ming in the meantime was saying to all the thousands of cultivators, "There is no need for further speech. Let''s feast in this ce for day to night to wee our new Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan!"

    Ling Feiyue whispered to the rest of the maidens that were outside her small group of 5, "Next time, remind all of us not to let Ji Yuan talk¡­"

 Chapter 1222 The Great Alliance Leaders Banquet

    Chapter 1222 The Great Alliance Leader''s Banquet

    ?

    After Diviner Mo Ming had dered that Mo Bei would be the assistant alliance leader to assist Ji Yuan, the banquet was officially started.

    Ji Yuan was too popr as there were endless number of cultivators from numerous cultivation sects that were all trying to pay their homage to him.

    He had also introduced Li Ye and Nangong Xiu as his elders to Fairy Qiu Xiuyu.

    Li Ye was Fairy Qiu Xiuyu''s master in the mortal world.

    When the two had met, it was quite awkward.

    By right, Li Ye should be quite happy to see Fairy Qiu Xiuyu as she was his disciple and Fairy Qiu Xiuyu should also be quite happy to see Li Ye since she had secretly liked him for so many decades.

    But it was not the case.

    It was because Ji Yuan had also introduced Nangong Xiu as Li Ye''s dao cultivation partner.

    And Ji Yuan had introduced Fairy Qiu Xiuyu as his consort.

    Not only that, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu was also heavy with Ji Yuan''s child.

    In short, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu now had the higher status than even Li Ye.

    At the same time, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu also had many powerful celestial maidens as her sisters now. Although she was only a 5th realm golden celestial, no one dares to bully her in the Deste Celestial Fraternity.

    And Li Ye had suddenly realized that Fairy Qiu Xiuyu was actually so beautiful.

    In the past, he had never really noticed her beautiful looks as he was only focused on his cultivation and he had wanted to obtain a celestial maiden as his dao cultivation partner.

    He had never thought that Fairy Qiu Xiuyu would be in the same celestial fraternity as him and had be Ji Yuan''s consort.

    Fairy Qiu Xiuyu had never thought that one day, she would meet her prot¨¦g¨¦ master and the man that she had liked for a long time.

    However, she no longer loved Li Ye now and her heart was now given to Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan exined to Li Ye that he had met Fairy Qiu Xiuyu inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but he can''t reveal the details to him as it is forbidden.

    But Li Ye could guess that Ji Yuan had a trial that sent him to the lower mortal realm and that was how he had met Fairy Qiu Xiuyu.

    In the mortal realm, it was rare for the celestials to visit but not unheard of.

    Even when Li Ye was a mortal cultivator, he had already heard of powerful celestials visiting his cultivation region.

    Guo Taiming, another of Ji Yuan''s brother was not around; it was because he had sent him home.

    Right now, Guo Taiming was probably regretting why he had not stayed at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and he had missed on Ji Yuan bing the Great Alliance Leader.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly been approached by the Mystic Eye Sect and there were dozens of theming to pay their homage to him.

    All of a sudden, a fat man from among them hadughed jovially. "Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan, do you still remember me? I am Eder Sui. We had met when the Hundred Flower Divine Pcee to your Emperor Hall Sect."

    Ji Yuan frowned as he remembered him alright.

    "This is my Matriarch Lin Danmei and my Sect Leader Long Wanggang¡­"

    Ji Yuan golden eyes were not looking at the Sect Leader Long Wanggang but he was looking at Matriarch Lin Danmei instead.

    It was because she was a young and beautiful maiden. But of course, her youthful appearance was but a deception asmon among the celestial cultivators.

    As soon as Ruan Songci saw her elders approaching Ji Yuan, she had immediately rose to pay her homage to them as well.

    Matriarch Lin Danmei smiled to her after receiving her homage before saying, "Prot¨¦g¨¦ Ruan Songci. I''ve heard already that you intend to leave our Mystic Eye Sect? Why is it so? Have you found a better cultivation sect now?"

    Ruan Songci was looking greatly flustered as she secretly stolen a nce at Ji Yuan. Slowly she nodded.

    But when she had stolen a look at Ji Yuan, Matriarch Lin Danmei began to sigh softly. "Let me guess. You are joining our new Great Alliance Leader''s cultivation sect?"

    Ruan Songci did not dare to lie so she nodded, "That''s right. I am joining the Great Alliance Leader as his¡­"

    She had wanted to say to join Ji Yuan as his elder but she was suddenly interrupted by Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan had interrupted her by seizing her waist and chuckled, "I am taking Maiden Ruan Songci as my little consort. Erm, you have any objectives to it?"

    Ruan Songci flushed shyly when Ji Yuan had suddenly dered that she was his maiden.

    Both Elder Sui and Sect Leader Long Wanggang were bothughing jovially, "Oh no. It is good."

    Even Matriarch Lin Danmei was smiling, "Does it means that the rtionship between our two cultivation sects will be closer in the future too?"

    Ji Yuan grinned at her, "Of course, of course¡­"

    He was actually thinking: If you cane to my bed, then it will even be closer.

    Elder Sui tried to tter Ji Yuan, "You know. When I first met you, I know that you are a blessed son of the heavens and will one day be a mighty dragon under the heavens. Hahahaha¡­"

    After Ji Yuan and the cultivators from the Mystic Eye Sect had exchanged their pleasantries, there were beautiful music ying.

    At the 3000 steps below, separating the inner hall steps and the outer hall steps was arge tform.

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia and four of the beautiful immortal maidens had taken stage to dance for everyone.

    Many of the male cultivators'' jaws dropped when these five beautiful maidens in their revealing celestial silk dresses were dancing for everyone.

    And they did not hide their profound aura.

    Many of the cultivators were stammering and eximing, "They are¡­ immortal maidens¡­ and they are dancing for us¡­ how is it possible¡­ we should be kneeling before them¡­"

    "Only our Great Alliance Leader has the face to ask even the immortal maidens to dance for us¡­"

    "I pity those that can''te to this congregation¡­"

    "I feel that I am having a breakthrough now¡­"

    "This is too delightful¡­"

    "Is this also immortal music?"

    "She is so beautiful¡­ what is her name? I mean the immortal maiden that is taking the lead¡­"

    "They are all so beautiful¡­"

    "I wonder if they have a dao cultivation partner¡­"

    Ji Yuan was already ogling at the Immortal Fairy Lucia and he was almost drooling at her great beauty.

    Actually, he did not n for any of the events and it were his maidens that had nned everything so he did not know that the Immortal Fairy Lucia and the other immortal maidens would be performing a dance for everyone.

 Chapter 1223 Shui Xisi and Fang Zhenfei real identity

    Chapter 1223 Shui Xisi and Fang Zhenfei real identity

    The banquet was finally over aftersting from day to the next morning.

    During the night, everyone continued to feast and chat jovially.

    New alliances and friendships were forged among the celestial cultivators.

    With the damage of the Great Demon God that was still fresh in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, many of the celestial cultivators were also seeking new fundings or powerful support to rebuild their cultivation sects.

    The damage was great.

    There were many cultivators that had defected to the Great Demon God and they had done great despicable things. Their sins cannot be forgiven easily.

    Ji Yuan did not get involve with this feud as he allowed them to settle their own internal affairs; it was too many for him to settle personally and many of his maidens were also the leaders of the resistance group that got betrayed by the many cultivators that defected to the Evil Cultivation Pce.

    Those with less heavy sins were allowed to do penances to redeem themselves as many of them were actually followers.

    But they were not trusted anymore to take on the leadership position in their cultivation sects.

    Of course, Ji Yuan and many of the leaders of the Deste Celestial Fraternity knows that there were many cultivation sects that were switching sides to whoever was the stronger; they had closed one eye to it.

    As long as they did notmit any knowing atrocities or create any feuds with the other cultivation sects, everyone is willing to close an eye to it.

    It is because the cultivation sects have absolute authority over their domains.

    And also, because there are usually intrigues from among the cultivation sects aremon anyway and everyone is eager for things to be normal again.

    At least with Ji Yuan as the Great Alliance Leader, the celestial cultivators will all have a strong support from all those that supports Ji Yuan to fight against the remanent of the evil cultivators that remained loyal to the Evil Cultivation Pce and the Great Demon God.

    It is also to show the defeated evil cultivators that the Deste Celestial Fraternity is united as one and therefore, they should not try to mess up again against any of the cultivation sects.

    And that even the smaller cultivation sects can seek help from the Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan anytime if the evil cultivators would attempt to seize their cultivation sect and to use it as a base.

    Of course, some cultivation sects may actually be the evil cultivators themselves and they are only trying to portray as the good guys. But this is another story.

    On paper at the very least, the victory over the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce have been won.

    Without the Great Demon God and his powerful leaders of the Evil Cultivation Pce, most of the remanent of the evil cultivators and the coborators that did evil were mainly on the chicken run.

    Ji Yuan also closed one eye to the damages that the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had done while they were leaders of the Evil Cultivation Pce. It was because they made a soul oath not to harm the interest of the Deste Celestial Fraternity anymore.

    And also, the Great Immortal Rohan had suddenly dered that he would be loyal to the Great Alliance Leader Rohan and he was even willing to be his sword of justice.

    The Great Immortal Rohan is actually trying to hug Ji Yuan the big tree now as he is his best protection.

    The Great Immortal Rohan is not afraid of the reprisals of the cultivators Deste Celestial Fraternity as he could easily have beaten them up. But he is afraid of the Pangu Immortals of the Nine Heavens that may descend to find the Deste Immortals.

    And Ji Yuan is stronger than most of the Pangu Immortals that woulde down from the Nine Heavens, saved for the Great Gods and Goddesses of the Pangu Immortals.

    And also, he was trying to sell himself to Shui Xisi as he said to her, "I know that you are the daughter of the Great Goddess Alice. Do you think that you can allow us to stay in the Celestial Realm as our hiding ce? We know that we are not wee in the Deste Immortal Realm or the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. We have no ce to run."

    The Deste Immortals numbered around 30 and they could easily have fled to the deepest recess of the deste mists to evade the Pangu Immortals but they were sick of hiding now.

    Shui Xisi had said to the Great Immortal Rohan, "I can plead on your behalf but I can''t make any promise. I don''t have any influence with the Great God Pangu or to the Great Goddess Fantian. Even my mother consort is subjugated to them."

    This is not exactly true since Shui Xisi is actually the daughter of the Great God Pangu himself! And she is the blessed daughter of the heavens!

    And her destiny is to be the future ruler of the Nine Heavens as her half-sister Fan Yuqing the Golden Mask Devil Goddess had no interest in bing the Immortal Ruler of the Nine Heavens.

    Also, the main reason why Fan Yuqing did not want to be the Immortal Ruler is also because she is in love with the reincarnation of the Great Lord Xuan Yuan and he had the blood of too many of the Pangu Immortals.

    There is another reason why Shui Xisi is picked to be the sessor of the Immortal Ruler of the Nine Heavens; it is because she is the Great Goddess Fan Tian''s only sessor!

    When the Great Goddess Fan Tian was reincarnating in the mortal realm, she had used the name of Shui Yixian (See A Martial Odyssey).

    And it is not a coincidence that Shui Xisi has used the n name of Shui instead of Fang like her Sister Feng Zhenfei even though they are real siblings from the same mother consort. Her real n name is Celestial though as her mother consort the Great Goddess Alice is also known as the Great Goddess Celestial Alice.

    Therefore, for Shui Xisi, her true name is Celestial Shui Xisi and she is also the future immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens.

    Actually, she had no idea that she would be the future immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens but the demise of her Sister Fang Zhenfei has caused her to be the new sessor instead.

    The Fang from the name of Fang Zhenfei means in all directions and her name Zhenfei means Soaring with Righteousness. In short, her name when added together means to rule the four corners of the heavens with righteousness.

 Chapter 1224 Ji Yuanâ€™s Great Principle

    <h4>Chapter 1224 Ji Yuan''s Great Principle</h4>

    After the banquet had finally ended, Ji Yuan was drunk for almost a day.

    When he had got up from his drunken slumber, he was feeling dizzy and he saw that he was now back in his room.

    "What happened? I can''t remember a thing?"

    He had only remembered that he was drinking with everyone and he wasughing to all of them but he had forgotten what he had said.

    But he did remember that some of his maidens had shot him an ugly look andmenting that he talked too much.

    As he looked around his room, he was startled to see that Destiny was in his room.

    "Destiny? Why are you¡­ erm in my room? Where are the rest?"

    Destiny smiled mysteriously at him, "I told them that I want to speak with you personally. As a true divinity, they have to give me this respect, right?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; no one wants to mess around with a true divinity.

    "Erm, you want to say something to me?" He asked curiously.

    Destiny then took out a scroll and opened it in front of him, "Do you still remember this scroll?"

    Ji Yuan stared at the golden scroll that was in front of him, "I don''t. What is it?"

    Destiny hummed coldly, "You are really a heartless man!"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "In what way am I a heartless man? I didn''t do anything."

    Destiny said with a heavy sigh, "Then why don''t you open it and have a look instead?"

    Ji Yuan curiously opened up the scroll and when he read the golden scroll, he was feeling dazed and was in a great shock.

    He was gasping with great shock after he had read it. "This is a betrothal agreement between us?"

    To be more exact, this was a betrothal agreement between the True Devil God and Destiny.

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to Destiny, "You know that I am not the original True Devil God but his reincarnation, right?"

    Destiny said coolly to him, "Is there a difference?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Of course there is a difference. We have different experiences and I am me, he is him."

    Destiny asked him with an unpleasant look, "So, you are nning to break our betrothal agreement then?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said weakly, "You know. Howe this betrothal agreement is in the celestialnguage and I can even understand it. This isn''t a fake, right?"

    Destiny exined with a calm look, "I''ve tranted it for you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you think that I will believe you?

    Destiny smiled as she took out another scroll, "I know that you may not believe me but take a look at this."

    Ji Yuan curiously opened this scroll and took a look at it and he saw that this was another betrothal agreement but this time it was between him and Destiny. And it got his name Ji Yuan on it.

    He looked weakly at Destiny, "I don''t remember signing this, you know."

    Destiny smiled, "You have signed this during the banquet. Are you so drunk that you cannot remember that I have decided to ept your proposal?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Do you know that I can easily check with the others. There should be plenty of witnesses, you know."

    Destiny was alsoughing softly as she winked at Ji Yuan, "You can ask your maidens."

    When she was saying this, she was also thinking: Do you really think your maidens will dare to offend a true divinity like me? Even if I say that there are two suns in the day when there is only one, they will still agree with me.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Then this is true, after all?"

    Destiny said as she waved her fingers, "You don''t ever think of breaking your betrothal agreement with me. If you do, I will kill you immediately."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly gulped and he was stammering, "You are serious?"

    Destiny smiled wryly, "What do you think?"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "You know that I am¡­ erm, weaker than you, right? So I may not win you but I am the grand prot¨¦g¨¦ of the Great Beyond Goddess. Surely you are not thinking of offending the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Destiny smiled as she held up the two forgery scrolls in her hand, "If you have chosen to break your agreement and it is only fair that you die for breaking it. Or are you thinking of breaking it?"

    Ji Yuan said with great righteousness, "Do you think I am a man that will yield so easily? If so, then you are greatly mistaken about me and you have looked down upon my martial honor."

    Xiang Li whispered to Ji Yuan: But Big Brother, she is beautiful. You don''t want to make her your maiden?

    Anyang was also startled: I am so surprised¡­

    Ji Yuan said to them: I am a man with great principles!

    Destiny looked hurt as she looked woefully at Ji Yuan, "I can help you in the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. You really don''t want my aid?"

    Ji Yuan said nonchntly, "With or without your help, I can ovee the uing cmity myself."

    Destiny began to sigh woefully as she turned around and said mncholy, "Forget what I have said today. Farewell then¡­"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly halted her, "Wait! Wait!"

    Destiny turned around and asked, "Yes?

    Ji Yuan began to look sheepish as he said weakly, "After thinking for a while, it isn''t impossible between us. We can give it a try. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiang Li: ???

    Anyang asked: What happens to your great principles?

    Ji Yuan frowned back: Have you ever considered the possibility that under the same circumstance, the maiden may be an ugly maiden?

    Anyang weakly said: I get it now. She meets your standard of beauty and this is your so called great principle.

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang.

    "Really?!" Destiny was suddenly all smiles and she was looking with affectionate eyes at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan nodded and grinned, "Of course. Although I am not the original True Devil God but I am still him. So I am willing to give us a try."

    He was not blind to sense that Destiny was here for him.

    He was actually trying to y hard for a while but he had not thought that Destiny would give up so readily.

    Destiny was smiling with tenderly delight at Ji Yuan; her affectionate eyes were filled with warmth and tenderness. The gaze in her eyes had a sparkle that reflected her deep affection and this was a moment that she had always been dreaming of for thousands of years¡­

 Chapter 1225 Ji Yuan and the Goddess Alyssa

    <h4>Chapter 1225 Ji Yuan and the Goddess Alyssa</h4>

    Before Destiny had left Ji Yuan''s room, she smiled to him as she slowly averted her gaze from him. "Remember what you have said to me today!"

    She lowered her eyes with as a subtle coyly blush spreaded across her cheeks to indicate her bashfulness.

    And with that, she had coyly left his room in a hurry.

    Ji Yuan was stunned by how swift Destiny had left his room and he had not even hold her hands yet.

    What the heck?!

    I haven''t even kissed her or hold her hands yet¡­

    When Destiny had left his room all of a sudden, Ji Yuan began to sh out of his room too and to go after her.

    He was now cursing himself for trying to act so cool.

    As he sped across the hallway of his room, he had suddenly bumped into the Goddess Alyssa who was surprised to see him.

    Ji Yuan was also surprised to see her as he quickly greeted, "Goddess Alyssa, how are you?"

    The Goddess Alyssa looked at him while still gasping softly with great surprise, "It is the Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan¡­ why are you out here? I mean sote at night?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Hahaha¡­ I didn''t know that it is night now. Guess that I had been knocked out cold for a day now."

    The Goddess Alyssa smiled at him, "You should purge your alcohol out then you won''t get drunk."

    Ji Yuan frowned and his reaction was typical of many of the male cultivators in the Deste Celestial Fraternity, "And waste the good wines? Never!"

    Although high level cultivators like Ji Yuan don''t have to eat or drink but there are certain stuffs that they still like to consume despite their high level cultivation body.

    Also, the good wines that Ji Yuan had consumed were also spiritual wines and it could even increase his cultivation so it was too wasteful to purge it.

    And he couldn''t think of any cultivators that would purge these spirit wines too unless they were nuts. After all, the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect had spent plenty of spirit stones for these valuable spirit wines to be used for this asion and it could even cost a small cultivation sect a year of their finances.

    The Goddess Alyssa asked him all of a sudden, "Great Alliance Leader, you don''t mind answering a question for me?"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    "Sure, why not?" He answered curiously.

    The Goddess Alyssa asked him with a soft sigh, "As you know that the Celestial Immortals are split into the Deste and the Pangu Immortals. Is there a hope for real peace?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course! Love your neighbours. Then you can even advance your dao and gain eternal life as an immortal."

    He had actually randomly babbled this.

    The Goddess Alyssa asked him curiously, "Love your neighbours?"

    Ji Yuan pretended to act like a sage and said coolly, "You should love your neighbour as you love yourself if you want to be a great cultivator. There are no Deste or Pangu Immortals. Why fight? Where does the hatrede from?"

    The Goddess Alyssa said slowly, "The enmities between our two immortal races go a long way."

    Ji Yuan said to her, "Let me give you a parable then."

    The Goddess Alyssa: ???

    Ji Yuan continued, "An orthodox cultivator was going down the mountains when he got attacked by profound beasts and were left almost dead. Then an orthodox cultivatore near him and walked away. Then an unorthodox cultivator walked past and then saved him. So who are the good guy and who the bad guy?"

    He further added as he chuckled, "I don''t care if Ding Xiaoxiao is my enemy or not. I will love her as my neighbour!"

    Anyang said weakly to Ji Yuan: Are you sure that it is not because Ding Xiaoxiao is a beautiful maiden and not because she is your enemy and you love your enemy?

    Ji Yuan ignored Anyang as he asked the Goddess Alyssa, "Do you get the moral story of my parable or not?"

    The Goddess Alyssa pondered for a while, "You mean we shouldn''t have made the distinction between the Pangu Immortal and the Deste Immortal so clearly? Because your so call same race won''t help you if you are in trouble while the enemy will help you?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned by her conclusion to his parable as he did not think much as he was in a hurry to find Destiny and so he had bullshitted some craps to the Goddess Alyssa.

    So he said to her, "You indeed you have the dao understanding. I am impressed by your dao heart. You can definitely advance as a greater immortal in the future."

    This caused the Goddess Alyssa to be flustered as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Really? I have the dao understanding and I can be a greater immortal in the future?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Of course! The heavens have no limits and boundaries. As long as you remember my parable well, you dao heart shall always be your beacon of enlightenment in your cultivation. You will be a greater immortal in the future. It is a good thing that you have turned over a new leaf now."

    The Goddess Alyssa began to sigh woefully, "I am actually not like this. I used to have a good sister Mel but I had betrayed her and even caused her great harm¡­ also, Little Princess must have hated me so much too¡­"

    All of a sudden, she had noticed that Ji Yuan was gone in a sh.

    Ji Yuan was actually in a hurry to look for Destiny and he was just babbling to maintain his super cool image.

    In fact, he did not even know what he was talking about.

    But the Goddess Alyssa did not know this and she had secretly made up her mind to repent and to redeem herself.

 Chapter 1226 Ji Yuan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue

    Chapter 1226 Ji Yuan, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue

    Ji Yuan continued his way to look for Destiny along the many hallways of the inner pce when he had suddenly realized that he had no idea where her room was.

    Also, he had suddenly remembered that the maidens were staying in another inner pce as the inner pce that he was staying was actually for the important guests such as the Great Immortal Rohan, Mo Ming, Mo Bei and etc.

    The other inner pce was exclusive for the maidens and not a mix one like the one that he was staying.

    Or Destiny could even be staying in another inner pce as she is a true divinity and deserves to have the whole ce for herself.

    Just as he was about to return to his sleeping quarter again, he bumped into Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue who were walking in the hallway.

    Ji Yuan was delighted when he saw him, "Wuwu, Baiyue. Howe you are here? I mean, howe you are not in the other inner pce?"

    Hua Wuwu giggled softly, "We havee to see you, of course. Or you don''t wee us because you have too many maidens?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Of course I wee you!"

    Hua Baiyue was more solemn as she smiled gently, "We just have a meeting with Diviner Mo Ming, Jin Yuyan, Ji Hao, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Zhao Songjin and Matriarch Han Yuchi in this inner pce. And of course, with the other leaders of the Deste Celestial Fraternity as well."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right. Wuwu is now the Phoenix Mistress of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect now while Baiyue is now the Divine Pce Mistress of the Hundred Flower Divine Pce."

    Then he was suddenly frowning, "Wait a minute. Even my son Ji Hao is in this meeting. Howe as the Great Alliance Leader, I am not involved?"

    Hua Wuwu giggled softly, "That is because you are irrelevant to the meeting. Your Emperor Hall Sect is but a third rate puny cultivation sect and have no fighters to contribute to the cause of restoring the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Even Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan did not join in the meeting."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested, "But I contribute the most! I should be in the meeting!"

    Hua Baiyue chuckled when she had heard Ji Yuan as she broke her solemnness, "You are the only one that is strong. A one man army. Hehe¡­"

    "Why don''t we ask Ji Yuan to help to clean out the western regions? We certainly need him to do the job for all of us." Hua Wuwu giggled as well.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Wait a minute. You are discussing the cleaning job? I don''t want to be involved anymore."

    Hua Wuwu frowned, "You can change your mind so quickly, Great Alliance Leader."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "I want a no responsibility leadership. And I have decided to camp in your ce forever."

    Hua Wuwu gave Ji Yuan an unpleasant look, "Aren''t you too shameless? You want to drink and eat at my Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect. What about your Emperor Hall Sect? Didn''t I give you 7 mountain peaks to be used for the new location of your Emperor Hall Sect?"

    "There is nothing there, you know." Ji Yuan was frowning. "And it takes time to construct the new buildings too. And it is also costly. But on the other hand, my consort Hua Wuwu is here in this ce so I may as well stay here."

    Hua Wuwu giggled softly, "So you really want to take me as your little consort?"

    Ji Yuan had suddenly grabbed Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue at the same time, "Of course. The two of you are my little consorts¡­"

    Then he began to sigh heavily, "The two of you are my Jiajia''s direct disciples. And I still need the two of you to tell me all about Jiajia and her stories."

    Hua Baiyue quietly leaned on Ji Yuan''s shoulder as she heaved a soft sigh, "Ji Yuan, did Shui Xisi tells you about our mistresstely?"

    Ji Yuan asked, "What thing?"

    "Never mind," Hua Baiyue smiled to him. "It isn''t important and it is only our guess. Better wait for Shui Xisi to verify it as she has more means than us."

    Ji Yuan: ???

    Heughed, "Nothing good will evere out from Sisi''s mouth. Haha¡­"

    Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue smiled weakly when they had heard him.

    Then he asked, "Where is Sisi by the way? She should be in the same meeting as you?"

    Hua Wuwu nodded, "We saw her talking privately with the Great Immortal Rohan not long ago."

    Ji Yuan was frowning all of a sudden; it is because Shui Xisi is his maiden and she can only talk to him.

    Anyang said to Xiang Li: Our lord has be a male chauvinist as ofte.

    Xiang Li giggled: Maiden Sisi is his secret lover.

    Ji Yuan hugged Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue before he shed away with a soft shout, "I''m going to look for Sisi now."

    Hua Wuwu looked at Hua Baiyue when Ji Yuan had disappeared from the hallway, "Why is he looking for her when they are always at odds?"

    "So that they can pick a quarrel with each other?" Hua Baiyue offered a suggestion.

    Hua Wuwu asked, "Did he even know where to go in the first ce?"

    Hua Baiyueughed softly, "He has no idea how big the inner pces of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect really is."

    Hua Wuwuughed along with him, "That is because hees from a small Orthodox Sword Sect and the Emperor Hall Sect.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was running in the hallway again when he had suddenly realized that he should have asked Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue to guide him around.

    The ce is really too freaking big!

    He had suddenly realized that he had been banging all the time in his room and he had not really explored the many inner pces and mountain peaks of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

    This inner pce that he was, actually consisted of 5 pce wings; the north, east, south, west and middle wings.

    Just as he was feeling lost and was about to find someone to look for directions, he had suddenly bumped into Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing.

    "Ji Yuan?" The two of them were astonished to see him.

    "Qingqing, Maiden Zhao Songjin?" Ji Yuan eximed with surprise as he bumped into them.

 Chapter 1227 Ji Yuan, Zhao Songjin, Shui Qingqing

    Chapter 1227 Ji Yuan, Zhao Songjin, Shui Qingqing

    When Ji Yuan saw Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin, he had called them Qingqing and Maiden Zhao Songjin at the same time.

    Qingqing was delighted that Ji Yuan was addressing her so informally and even calling her by her name directly.

    However for Zhao Songjin, she looked hurt that Ji Yuan was addressing her in such a formal manner and even addressing a title in front of her name and even calling her proper full name.

    Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin were sisters that were separated at birth and their mother consort was Matriarch Han Yuchi of the Celestial Orthodox Sect, the same celestial n as Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue.

    Ji Yuan had previously fought with Zhao Songjin in the past and so did Xue Qianxue.

    Shui Qingqing smiled when she saw Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan! You are here too! Or shall I call you the Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan?"

    Zhao Songjin lowered her nce to say quietly, "Congrats to you for bing the great alliance leader now."

    She had a secret longing for Ji Yuan ever since he had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth even though they were merely friends with benefits.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I didn''t expect to meet the two of you here. Hahaha¡­"

    Then he grinned, "We are all friends. There is no need to call me Great Alliance Leader Ji Yuan or great alliance leader. Just continue to call me Ji Yuan or Sword Saint Ji Yuan. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Qingqing smiled shyly as she asked him, "You seem to be in a hurry. Where are you going?"

    Ji Yuan had no idea where he was going too. He was actually chasing after Destiny and then he had thought of looking for Shui Xisi.

    After thinking quickly, he decided to say. "Erm¡­ I am actually looking for Xisi, your matriarch. Where is she? I''ve heard that she is talking to the Great Immortal Rohan."

    The reason why he had decided to look for Shui Xisi and not Destiny first was because he did not want Shui Xisi to green him. Or allow anyone to green him.

    Shui Qingqing was surprised, "Yes. She was talking to him earlier. But I am not sure if my matriarch is still there though. But why are you looking for her? Aren''t the two of you are always at odds? Do you need me to help you to pass the message for you? It may be safer for you."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "I am now a half-immortal at the 9th cultivation realm. I will be afraid of your matriarch? Impossible! She shouldn''t be the one that is afraid of me¡­"

    "I saw her kick you down the tform the other day when you are just back from fighting the Great Demon God," Shui Qingqing pointed out.

    "Erm¡­ I was in a weaken state back then." Ji Yuan began to protest immediately.

    Then he quickly grinned when Shui Qingqing had reminded him of that, "I am looking for her to settle that score with her."

    Shui Qingqing became panicky immediately as she quickly said, "Ji Yuan, please spare my matriarch. If you are willing to spare her, I will do anything for you. Even if¡­ even if¡­ you want¡­"

    She had suddenly be flustered and was unable to continue¡­

    But Zhao Songjin seemed to understand this; she could tell that her sister is in love with Ji Yuan and it isn''t actually a real sacrifice.

    Ji Yuan felt bad about lying to Shui Qingqing so he said, "I promise you that unless your matriarch acts first then I won''t do anything funny to her, alright?"

    Shui Qingqing looked tenderly at Ji Yuan, "Thank you so much!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he admired the beautiful curves on Shui Qingqing; he would be lying if he was never tempted by Shui Qingqing''s beautiful looks and features but he found her too innocent and na?ve. That was why he felt that she was too good for him.

    On the other hand, her sister Zhao Songjin was her opposite.

    Zhao Songjin said quietly to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, it seems that you have a lot of maidens as your consorts now. I didn''t even recognize half of them. How did you manage to do that?"

    When she had said this, even Shui Qingqing looked a little teary.

    Ji Yuan was at a loss of words, "Erm¡­"

    Zhao Songjin continued with a wry smile, "Then why don''t you take my Sister Qingqing as your consort too? Or she is not beautiful for you?"

    Then she smiled, "Or me if you want to."

    Ji Yuan was stunned by her directness, "It isn''t a matter of beautiful or not. This isn''t a matter of time either. It is how we click with each other."

    When he had said this, he was feeling quite proud of himself; what a great speech!

    "Are we not your friends with benefits too?" Zhao Songjin asked him with a yful look. "So, did we click with you or not?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Did she just find a hole in my perfect speech?

    Shui Qingqing looked woefully at Ji Yuan, "That''s right. Aren''t we friends? Didn''t we click when we are in the dragon cave together?"

    Ji Yuan began to stammer, "Erm¡­"

    He pondered panicky as he stammered, "Erm, we did click but¡­"

    "But what?" Shui Qingqing asked him with a woeful look.

    Ji Yuan dare not look at her directly as this woeful look was too heart melting. "But s, I have a feud with your matriarch. She will never agree to us being together."

    That is, this is my perfect excuse!

    Shui Qingqing was startled and she began to lower head, "That''s right. My matriarch doesn''t like you¡­"

    Zhao Songjin seized to say, "On the other hand, my Sister Qingqing''s mother consort and my matriarch likes you. So this shouldn''t be a problem, right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Zhao Songjin turned to say to Shui Qingqing, "Just leave your Water Melody Pce and join my Celestial Orthodox Sect. Your mother consort and I will surely support you wholeheartedly in this. You can be with Ji Yuan if you are to join us."

    Ji Yuan thought: She can''t be serious about this?

    Just as he was still thinking about Shui Qingqing, Zhao Songjin lowered her nces to say to Ji Yuan. "Then what about me? Do you like me or not?"

    Zhao Songjin had actually wanted to keep her feeling for Ji Yuan buried in her heart forever but she could not endure it any longer. "I don''t want to make it into my greatest regret by keeping quiet about this."

    Shui Qingqing reached out to hold Zhao Songjin''s hands and said, "Sister¡­ we¡­ both like the same man¡­"

    Zhao Songjin said half-heartedly, "Maybe he despises me in his heart."

    Then both Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing began to look at Ji Yuan, hoping that he could give them a reply.

    Ji Yuan used to say to the many maidens that were interested in him, "I am not interested in any maidens and I want to focus on my cultivation."

    That was of course before he had met Jiajia.

    But today, he can''t use this same excuse.

 Chapter 1228 The Mysterious White Bearded Man

    Chapter 1228 The Mysterious White Bearded Man

    Ji Yuan patted Shui Qingqing on his left and Zhao Songjin on his right before he said to them solemnly, "I promise to give the two of you a positive reply if I am able to return from the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    He had be very good in using this excuse as he had previously used it on some of the maidens.

    Then heughed and said, "I am in a hurry and need to excuse myself first. I will catch up with the two of you soon enough."

    With that he had quickly sped away in a hurry.

    Unknown to Ji Yuan, he was spotted by Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue from far behind him.

    And they were shocked!

    From their angles, they could see that Ji Yuan was embracing both Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin at the same time. Not only that, he was talking andughing too as he hugged them at the same time.

    Ling Feiyue was startled, "Nowadays he even dared to flirt in such an open manner?!"

    Even Xue Qianxue was shocked, "I know that he got a leg with Zhao Songjin and now I have proof! They are really friends with benefits!"

    Ling Feiyue muttered, "We ought to let Shui Xisi knows about this as well. This is really bad."

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan was actually in a great hurry to leave the scene and when he had finally left, he had forgotten to ask Shui Qingqing the direction that Shui Xisi was at.

    "What the heck?! I have forgotten to ask for the direction?"

    He was in great disbelief because he felt like he had been running against the flow of the river as he tried to catch up to Destiny and he felt truly unlucky.

    Instead of catching up to Destiny, he kept bumping into the others.

    Now he was trying to find Shui Xisi but he had forgotten to ask about her location.

    He began to curse softly, "What have I been doing for almost a month in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect?"

    Xiang Li giggled to him when she had heard him: Banging all the maidens every day in your room until your waist cannot move.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang said to him: Well, you can return and look for your Qingqing and Songjin to ask them again.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "No way!" He quickly said. "This ce isn''t that big anyway. It is just 5 pce wings. Sooner orter, I will be able to find Sisi and Destiny."

    Anyang asked: Have you ever considered that they may have gone to the other inner pce or even the other mountain peaks?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Don''t remind me of that."

    Then he heaved a soft sigh, "Well, it is good to take a walk around here. After all, this ce is where my Jiajia stays for a long time and I can feel Jiajia''s presence in this ce."

    Then he looked at the quiet hallways and looked around, "Mm, where is everyone?"

    Anyang said: This is the inner pce and is warded by profound arrays. Most prot¨¦g¨¦s are not allowed into the areas of the inner pces, let alone inside the pce itself. The most that they can enter is themon hall of the inner pce.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do they need to have such a rule? This pce is even bigger than my entire Emperor Hall Sect and several times bigger than my Orthodox Sword Sect. This ce seems like a creepy tomb without the presence of anyone alive in sight."

    Anyang chuckled: Why don''t you admit that you are lost in this ce instead?

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes as he pondered, "Do you think that the other direction is the right one instead?"

    Anyang smiled weakly: You are asking me for direction? Why don''t you shout and ask if there are anyone nearby instead?

    Xiang Li giggled: I agree! This is the best solution!

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "Are you kidding me? Then everyone will know that I am lost in the hallways of this inner pce. That will be so awkward to my face."

    Xiang Li said loudly: But Big Brother! You are lost! And you need to find Destiny and Maiden Sisi!

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "With my heaven-defying ability to track down my opponents, will I be lost in such a puny pce?"

    If anyone was watching Ji Yuan now, it may appear like he was talking to the air but he was actually talking to Xiang Li and Anyang.

    Because there was no one around, he had spoken aloud rather than shelving his divine sense into his inner spiritual sea.

    If he does that then he would have awakened Aura and Little Yui as well then they would know that he is lost.

    As Ji Yuanughed, all of a sudden he had turned around and stared at the darkness behind him; it was because he seemed to have sense a presence behind him that caused him to have goose pimples!

    And this was an unknown presence that he had not felt before!

    "Who is that?"

    Ji Yuan was on guard already and his hands were ready to unsheathe his swords from his scabbard that was on his back.

    He could suddenly see the outline of a figure that was lurking in the darkness as he disyed his powerful divine sense and sword intentions ahead of him.

    All of a sudden, he shouted. "There you are!"

    Immediately he had shed with a lightning speed with his sword fingers raised.

    Since he had no idea if that was a friend or foe, this attack stance was quite lethal and he did not disy his divine swords or his more powerful profound arts.

    Also, he had to consider the safety of this pce too even though the walls were all made of celestium stones.

    As soon as Ji Yuan had shed into the hallway, there were nine golden discs of light that struck him hard and he was sent flying back!

    Flying backward was not the word.

    He was sent crashing with a thunderous crash onto the wall!

    His opponent was not at all merciful!

    The instant that Ji Yuan had been attacked by the nine hovering golden discs, he saw a man with a long beautiful white beard seemingly grinning at him as he was being attacking.

    This white bearded man had a youthful face that did not match his white beard and Ji Yuan immediately suspected that his white beard must be a fake one.

    The white bearded man said to him, "This is only a causal attack and you can''t even handle it. How can you even defeat the Great Demon God with this puny profound strength of yours?"

    Ji Yuan immediately disyed his ck sword, which was his true divinity sword and he was grinning too. "Old man, you will soon know my true strength."

    He had recovered in the next instant even though he was still shaking with great shock and pain all over.

    Then he noticed that the nine hovering golden discs that had attacked him had returned to the side of the white bearded man that had attacked him.

    Ji Yuan was immediately cautious as he noticed that these nine hovering golden discs condensed a powerful profound energies each and were as powerful as divine swords.

    Moreover, these powerful profound energies could be used to defend and attack too, disying a nimbleness that Ji Yuan''s flying swords could not match.

    Ji Yuan tried to read the cultivation realm of his enemy and he was quite startled that he could not read it; this indicated that his opponent may be at least an upper 9th immortal cultivator!

    He said coldly, "You aren''t with the Great Immortal Rohan. And how did you even manage to enter the profound arrays of this ce?"

    He knows every immortals that hade with the Great Immortal Rohan and this white bearded man was definitely not among them!

    The white bearded manughed, "I cane and go as I pleased. The profound array in this ce is child y to me."

    Ji Yuan was silence after hearing this; the intricate profound arrays of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect was quite renowned. Even if it was an immortal, they would not be able to enter it without triggering an rm. But this white bearded man was able to!

    He said quietly to him, "You mind if we fight outside?"

    The white bearded man smiled wryly, "What if I don''t? What will you do to me?"

    Ji Yuan said solemnly, "If we fight outside then you only have to face my wrath. But if you dare to fight in this ce and destroy this ce, then you will have to face the wrath of some of my maidens."

    He was naturally referring to Destiny, Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao; the three of them when added together could even fight the Great Demon God.

    Surely this white bearded man was not as strong as the Great Demon God?

    All of a sudden the white beard man had released his profound aura and an overwhelming profound pressure began to sweep in all directions!

    This caused Ji Yuan to turn ashen immediately and he was even forced to bend his knee as he also used all his profound aura to try to stand straight against this overwhelming oppressing pressure that had suddenly exploded in all directions!

    Not even the Great Demon God could force him to bend his knee!

    It was because this white bearded man was a True Divinity!

    Ji Yuan broke into cold sweats as he said gravely, "Who are you?!"

    Elsewhere in this inner pce and even the entire Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, the immerse overwhelming powerful true divinity profound aura could be felt and many of the weaker cultivators were even knocked down by it.

    Thousands of cultivators and even guests that had not left the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect were left crawling on the ground as the oppressing aura forced them to be sundered t when it had suddenly appeared in their midst.

    The white beard man then grinned at Ji Yuan, "So what if I don''t go and fight with you elsewhere? Are you hoping that your reinforcements will arrive to save you? In just a blink of an eye, I can obliterate this entire ce and massacre everyone in here. And what can you do to me?"

    Ji Yuan had turned ashen immediately as he remembered that Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Zhao Songjin and Shui Qingqing were all in the same pce as him.

    1. Time for some action. I should have covered most of the maidens already.

 Chapter 1229 The Great God Pangu

    Chapter 1229 The Great God Pangu

    Ji Yuan had turned ashen when he had heard the white bearded man as he knows that many of his maidens were not strong enough to withstand a hit from this white bearded old man.

    All of a sudden, Yun Chi, Destiny and Ding Xiaoxiao had swiftly arrived at the scene and they were being followed by the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia.

    When the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alyssa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia saw this white bearded man, they were startled and were even trembling¡­

    Next toe was Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin.

    Yun Chi, Destiny and Ding Xiaoxiao were actually not in this pce but when they had felt the powerful aura of a true divinity in this ce, they were rmed and quickly arrived from the other inner pces.

    Ji Yuan would never be able to find Destiny because she was not even in the same pce as him.

    The white beard manughed jovially when he saw that Ji Yuan''s reinforcements had arrived, "It seems that more areing this way to die¡­"

    Ji Yuan shouted coldly, "Leave them all alone! I am your only opponent!"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly shed forward in front of Ji Yuan and Ji Yuan acting instinctively, began to grab her wrist with a quick reflex. "Sisi! Stay back! This man is dangerous! He is a true divinity! Don''t go near him!"

    But Shui Xisi turned to chuckle softly at him, "He is my papa so I got nothing to fear from him."

    "Your papa?!" Ji Yuan was astonished. "Then he is¡­"

    Shui Xisi had already loosened Ji Yuan''s grip on her wrist as she shed to hug the white bearded man, "Papa! You are here!"

    This startled Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin as well.

    The white bearded manughed heartily as he embraced Shui Xisi, "Hohoho. Sisi, my good daughter. How have you been?"

    Shui Xisi immediately mustered all her profound strength to punch him in his chest and her voice was coarse, "Feifei dies but you should have known by now."

    However, her heavy punch was like hitting a solid wall and did not have any impact even though she had sent a powerful profound shockwave to ripple throughout the hallway.

    The white bearded man sighed heavily, "Indeed. I know¡­"

    Then he added with a heavy sigh, "And Yuqin¡­ or rather Yuqing now, she has run away again. It is getting harder to even talk to her."

    Shui Xisi immediately him with a smile to interrupt his heavy sigh, "Papa, your beard is too ugly. Can''t you get a better one?"

    The white bearded manughed heartily, "It is just a temporary beard. Isn''t this the Deste Celestial Fraternity where the beard culture is strong?"

    When he had said that, Ji Yuan was unconsciously rubbing his clean chin and was frowning: My beard, my beautiful beard¡­

    Shui Xisi then said to the white bearded man, "Papa, you didn''t happen to be lost here, am I right? And that is why you are looking for an excuse to disy your profound aura so as to attract my attention?"

    When she had said that, the white bearded man quickly said. "Nono, I can never get lost¡­"

    Even Ji Yuan was saying at the same time to himself when he had heard Shui Xisi: Nono, I can never get lost¡­

    The truth was that both the white bearded man and Ji Yuan were both lost in the massive pce.

    When the white bearded man saw Ji Yuan, he immediately thought of provoking him and to find an excuse to announce his presence. Just releasing his profound aura just like that would be too awkward to his face.

    Earlier, Ji Yuan was actually having the same thoughts but he had no excuse to announce his presence and he could not tell anyone that he was actually lost in the pce while trying to avoid Shui Qingqing and Zhao Songjin. He did not want to announce his presence, only to attract their attention back to him again.

    The white bearded man turned to look at Ji Yuan, "This man is your love interest?"

    Shui Xisi immediately protested weakly, "Of course not! I won''t ever like this badass man. He is too low for me!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Do you have to do belittle me like this in front of your papa?

    The white bearded manughed heartily, "He looks fine to me."

    Then he turned to say solemnly, "Your mother consort is waiting outside for you. Come with me!"

    Shui Xisi was startled and she was teary, "Mama is also here?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan could not resist making a soft gasp, "The Great Goddess Celestial Alice?!"

    Although his gasp was really soft but it was quite audible in the ears of many of the cultivators that were presented in this hallway such as Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao, Destiny and Ji Yuan etc.

    Then the white bearded man pointed at Ji Yuan, "Take him with you as well!"

    Ji Yuan was surprised when he was being singled out by the white bearded man.

    This was not a request but an order!

    Shui Xisi turned to Ji Yuan as she smiled yfully to him, "What are you waiting for? Didn''t you hear what my papa had just said? Or are you waiting for me to give you an invitation?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he stepped forward but he could not help but to take a look at Destiny, Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    This was not lost on the white bearded man as he said coolly, "Don''t worry. We won''t harm him and he will return in one piece. And we are not here to settle grudges too. So may the immortals that are in this ce please return to your quarters."

    He was looking with particr interest at Yun Chi, Ding Xiaoxiao and Destiny as he continued to say casually, "Maybe if you were to attack me at the same time, we may have an interesting fight¡­"

    Shui Xisi began to pull him away, "My foot! Stop thinking of fighting with anyone today¡­"

    Then she chuckled to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, what are you waiting for? Come!"

    Ji Yuan took ast look at Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, Shui Qingqing, Zhao Songjin, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue as he followed after Shui Xisi and the white bearded man.

    When they were gone, Destiny inhaled softly. "So that is the Great God Pangu, the great god of the celestial immortals and the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm."

    The Great Immortal Rohan muttered softly with a great sigh of relief, "Indeed he is."

    The Immortal Fairy Lucia asked with a fearful voice, "Both the Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Alice are actually both here. If they want to, they can end our existences any time."

    The Goddess Alyssa quickly said, "Let wait and see first. Didn''t the Great God Pangu just say that he isn''t here to settle old grudges?"

    The Great Immortal Rohan sighed with a bitter look, "We had killed the daughter of the Great God Pangu. If you think he won''t settle old grudges with us, I don''t believe¡­"

 Chapter 1230 The Great Goddess Celestial Alice

    Chapter 1230 The Great Goddess Celestial Alice

    It was still dark outside when Ji Yuan had followed the white bearded man and Shui Xisi outside.

    Along the way and when they were shing up the mountain paths, Ji Yuan asked from behind. "You are really the Great God Pangu? The Creator God of the Three Known Realms?"

    The white bearded manughed as he said to Ji Yuan, without turning his head back. "You can say that. But I am not the original Great God Pangu.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You are not the original Great God Pangu?"

    "I am merely the 4th reincarnation of the Great God Pangu. Your celestial myths did not lie to you. The original Great God Pangu had indeed died after creating the Three Known Realms and banishing the Ancient Fortress of the Deste Immortals out of the Nine Heavens." The white bearded man answered.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "Then you can remember your past life as the Great God Pangu?"

    The white bearded manughed heartily, "Not exactly. Only the first reincarnation like yourself can remember even half of it. It gets lesser and lesser with every reincarnation."

    "You know about me?" Ji Yuan asked with a look of surprise.

    The white bearded man said, "When you had defeated the Great Demon God, quite a number of our immortals that excel in divinations began to perform an augury on you. You are not only the True Devil God''s reincarnation but you have also taken our Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for yourself. Are you screwing everyone on purpose? How are the celestial cultivators going to take the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth from now onward? You have severed the destinies and lucky urrences of thousands of geniuses."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "I didn''t want to take the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. But Jiajia told me to take it. You can''t really me me. Also, the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has also chosen me as well."

    Shui Xisi giggled to the white bearded man, "Papa, don''t listen to this little rascal. He is fond of finding excuses and he never says a single truthful word. You know that he is the True Devil God, am I right? He is evil in his heart for sure!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hello Sisi! Which side are you on? I am the one that banged you, you know¡­

    The white bearded manughed jovially, "You don''t have to hide it from us. We have already known that the two of you are together."

    Shui Xisi was startled and she had be flustered while stammering to ask, "Who¡­ says so?! Rubbish! Crap! I will like this little rascal? Impossible!"

    The white bearded man took a look at Shui Xisi and grinned, "Your mother consort had said so. Your chastity mark is tied to her soul and once you had lost your chastity, she would know. This is also for your own protection."

    "What?! She has been spying on me?!" Shui Xisi flew into a rage. "How could mama do this to me?!"

    The white bearded old manughed heartily, "Well, if you really don''t like this rascal, I can help you to kill him on the spot to right you of your griefs against him¡­"

    "Don''t!" Shui Xisi panicky said. "I was only joking. He¡­ we are together¡­ are you happy now?"

    The white bearded man smiled, "Happy or not, it isn''t up to me to say but for your mother consort to say. She has to give her final approval, not me."

    Shui Xisi quickly smiled as she pulled the strong arms of the white bearded man, "Papa,e on. Help me to say a few good words. You always love me, am I right?"

    "It is pointless to beg your papa," An extremely beautiful but pale maiden with golden flowing hair and white golden celestial robe had suddenly tiptoed to the ledge of the cliff that was in front of them.

    Ji Yuan stammered when he saw her, "She is the Great Goddess Celestial Alice, the ruler of the Nine Heavens?"

    The Great Goddess Alice smiled wryly when she saw Ji Yuan, "Indeed I am. However, I am no longer the heavenly ruler of the Nine Heavens now. The future heavenly ruler of the Nine Heavens is supposed to be¡­"

    She had suddenly turned woeful as she said quietly, "It is supposed to be my other daughter Fang Zhenfei but now it has to be Shui Xisi now."

    Shui Xisi hid behind the white bearded man as she chuckled, "Well, I am not going back to the Nine Heavens. I have so much fun in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "You will return to the Nine Heavens and continue your cultivation. There is no point for you to remain in the Celestial Realm. You won''t be able to cultivate any more in this ce since you are already a peaked great saintesses and it is time for you to continue your higher cultivation." The Great Goddess Alice said.

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan, "Because you want to stay because of this man? Your name is Ji Yuan, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "That''s right. I''m Ji Yuan."

    Then he said with a firm voice, "You can''t take away Shui Xisi from me because she is already my dao cultivation partner. I had already lost my Jiajia. I can''t lose her too."

    The Great Goddess Alice smiled, "We won''t force her to return to the Nine Heavens, at least not until the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods is over."

    Both Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan began to heave a soft sign of relief; it would be saddening for them if today would be their farewell day.

    Shui Xisi turned to look at Ji Yuan with affectionate eyes but it was also a woeful look; it was because sooner orter, she had to leave the Celestial Realm to continue her immortal cultivation or else she would be a weak immortal ruler.

    The Great Goddess Alice said gently, "Sisi, since you are now the heiress to the Nine Heavens, it is time for me to impart to you my Mystic Stratosphere Divine Skill."

    Shui Xisi was startled, "I am not like Sister Fan Yuqing. This immortal divine skill needs me to open the Heaven Eyes of the fifth heavenly position. I am incapable of using this immortal divine profound art."

    The Great Goddess Alice sighed softly, "Yuqing is my personal disciple. But she¡­ doesn''t want to be the immortal ruler. Indeed no one is more suitable to inherit my Mystic Stratosphere Divine Skill than her. She can be said to be the number 1 genius cultivator in the Celestial and the Immortal Realm. In the future, she will surely be a true divinity."

    Then she said, "Sisi, follow me. Today, we will help you to open your Heaven Eyes forcefully."

    "We?" Shui Xisi was startled. "Who else is here?"

    The Great Goddess Alice smiled, "The Great Goddess Fan Tian and the Heaveness are both here as well. Follow me."

    Shui Xisi was startled as she stammered, "Holy crap! The Great Goddess Fan Tian and the Heaveness? I am doomed today¡­ you guys reallye at great expenses today? Why don''t give you some of your immortal wealth¡­"

    The Great Goddess Alice had already disappeared and her profound voice could be heard lingering, "When did you learn to talk so much? Come."

    Shui Xisi reluctantly shed ahead but not before she took a forlorn look at Ji Yuan, "I''ll be alright¡­ don''t worry for me."

    "It isn''t that," Ji Yuan protested immediately. "I wanna to look at the Great Goddess Fan Tian and the Heaveness."

    Shui Xisi stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Go and die, Ji Yuan!"

    Then she had disappeared.

    The white bearded manughed as he turned to say to Ji Yuan, "Now, it is only the two of us. Why don''t we have a little spar instead?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and said weakly, "Senior. Or should I call you the Great God Pangu instead. How is it possible for me to be able to stand against you?"

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "You want to obtain my daughter as your dao cultivation partner then shouldn''t you let this old man beat you up a little?"

 Chapter 1231 Ji Yuan and the Great God Pangu

    Chapter 1231 Ji Yuan and the Great God Pangu

    The Great God Pangu said to Ji Yuan, "Sisi is actually a nice maiden and I think that you deserve to be with her."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Yes, she is. We have been through some hells together while inside the Warrior Empyrean Labyrinth."

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "I am d that you agree with me. Do you know why Sisi is here in the Celestial Realm, along with her Sister Feifei?"

    Ji Yuan said, "I am not sure."

    The Great God Pangu said, "It is because it is extremely difficult for immortals to have any children. Just like it is extremely hard for high level celestial cultivators to have any children. It is thousands of times more difficult for the immortals¡­"

    Then he sighed softly before adding, "When we do have children, they are unable to cultivate in the Nine Heavens and we have to sent them to the Celestial Realm to cultivate. When they have reached the peak of the sacred saint level then we will bring them back to the Nine Heavens to continue their cultivation. Sisi don''t have to face the immortal ascension tribtion as she is a half-immortal."

    "Now that you have defeated the Great Demon God and have sent him back to his own immortal realm, Sisi''s secret mission to the Celestial Realm has also ended. So, there is no point for her to remain in the Celestial Realm anymore. If she remains in the Celestial Realm, it may stunt the growth of her immortal cultivation."

    Ji Yuan quietly said, "I¡­ understand¡­"

    When Shui Xisi has returned to the Nine Heavens, he would lose one more banging partner; he actually had the best banging experience with Shui Xisi and Bai Qianfeng.

    Unfortunately for him, Bai Qianfeng had already departed to the Nine Heavens and soon it would be Shui Xisi''s turn.

    There was a heartbreak in Ji Yuan''s heart when he had thought of Bai Qianfeng whom he had spent thousands of years inside the Dream Trial and it was also due to her that he was able to form his sword domains. Even his immortal scabbard hade from Bai Qianfeng and because she had unleashed her true cultivation realm, she was forced to depart to the Nine Heavens after the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Bai Qianfeng had only told Ji Yuan until the very end and had secretly kept it in her heart.

    Also, Ji Yuan enjoyed using Bai Qianfeng as his pillow and she emitted a kind of fragrance scent that could solve his insomnia.

    Without Bai Qianfeng around, Ji Yuan had a sleep problem.

    The Great God Pangu continued softly, "I had heard that you are a weirdo cultivator but you are also quite a popr one among the masses¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned to himself when he had heard the Great God Pangu: I am popr but I will be a weirdo cultivator? Impossible! In what way am I a weirdo cultivator?

    Anyang giggled to Xiang Li: Yes, he is a weirdo cultivator and he talks too much too¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    If the white bearded man in front of him was not the Great God Pangu himself, Ji Yuan would have protested loudly.

    The Great God Pangu continued, "Although you are not a genius cultivator¡­"

    Ji Yuan almost interrupted: Actually, I am a genius cultivator¡­

    "¡­ and you are also a shameless cultivator¡­" The Great God Pangu continued to say.

    Ji Yuan was horrified: I am a shameless cultivator?! You can''t nder my good name!

    The Great God Pangu added, "You also like to act awesome and cool in front of the others¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He could not resist his urge to protest any longer, even if he would be beaten to the death by the Great God Pangu. "Actually, this isn''t true at all. I am a man of few words and I always n 10 steps ahead."

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly: Then why don''t you finish what the Great God Pangu has to say first before you n your ten steps ahead?

    Xiang Li asked with a perplexed look: My Big Brother is a man of few words?

    The Great God Panguughed heartily when Ji Yuan had interrupted him, "But I must admit that you got guts."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Of course I got the guts. Or else I won''t confront the Great Demon God all by myself and defeated him."

    "I mean, you got the guts to bang my daughter." The Great God Pangu said.

    Ji Yuan began to smile awkwardly, "Erm¡­ I honestly don''t know that she is your daughter when I''ve banged her."

    The Great God Pangu stared at Ji Yuan, "So, you have finally admitted that you are the one that had banged my daughter."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Crap! This is a trick question¡­

    All of a sudden, the Great God Panguughed jovially. "Don''t be so nervous. Aren''t you a gusty cultivator?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I may be a gutsy cultivator but I don''t want to die."

    The Great God Pangu said to Ji Yuan, "Other than your beautiful looks, I really don''t understand why Sisi and even Feifei will like you but know I finally know."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Actually, other than my beautiful looks, I have plenty of other virtues as well."

    He added to himself: Such as my softest part can also be my hardest part as well.

    Anyang: ¡­

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "That is because youck the guile and is quite honest with yourself."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course I am honest. I am always an honest cultivator that never lies."

    Anyang: ¡­

    Xiang Li was giggling in Ji Yuan''s inner spiritual sea: Yeah! My Big Brother never lies!

    Anyang: ¡­

    The Great God Pangu patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder and said, "You are honestly a lecherous cultivator."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He immediately protested, "Honestly, I am never a lecherous cultivator. All my maidens can prove for me."

    Anyang: ¡­

    The Great God Panguughed jovially, "You are really a funny chap."

    Then he turned solemn as he said to Ji Yuan, "I actually don''t like a son-inw that is always hiding his thoughts inside or pretending to be polite. It is too hypocritical. You are too shameless and yet you are also honest with your lies."

    Ji Yuan weakly muttered, "Is this a praise or what?"

    The Great God Panguughed, "Now it is time to get to the real business."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What real business?"

    The Great God Pangu asked him, "Have you ever heard of the Nine Abyss Realms?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm, no? Where is it located?"

    The Great God Pangu said, "Below the Celestial Realm! Or rather, below the deste mists of the Celestial Realm."

 Chapter 1232 The Nine Abyss Realms

    <h4>Chapter 1232 The Nine Abyss Realms </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan pondered, "The Nine Abyss Realms? Below the deste mists of the Celestial Realm? I have never heard of it before. I don''t think anyone is able to enter so deep into the deste mists. It is like another world down there."

    The Celestial Realm is divided into the upper regions where the mountains rise above the nket of deste mists and below it, where much is unknown.

    The celestial celestials only know that it is extremely treacherous below the deste mists as it is a ce that is full of deste great beasts. The deeper that they go, the higher ranking the deste beasts are. And it is even possible to encounter even the 8th and 9th deste beasts, including the epic profound beasts!

    Another reason why few cultivators would dare to venture deep for long was that the spiritual aura below is sparse, making regeneration of wounds and profound strength extremely difficult. Even a 7th realm sacred saint would easily die below the deste mists.

    Ji Yuan said, "Maybe the Great Immortal Rohan and the deste immortals know about it. They have been hiding below the deste mists for a long time."

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "The lower regions of the Celestial Realm are actually 10 times bigger than the regions above the deste mists."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Ten times bigger? How is it possible?"

    To him, this was unimaginable big!

    The Great God Pangu exined, "Have you ever seen the base of a mountain before?"

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "I have seen it elsewhere in the other worlds."

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "Then you will know that the base is always broad and the mountain peaks that you seen in the Celestial Realm are all just a fraction of the actual mountains. What you have seen is just the tip of an iceberg in the oceans!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Well, I have never seen an ocean before. Is it bigger than the biggestke in the Deste Celestial Fraternity? And how big can an iceberg be?"

    The Great God Pangu stared weakly at Ji Yuan, "You didn''t study a lot, right?"

    Ji Yuan protested with a straight face, "I am a part time schr too but I didn''t read about these stuffs that you have just said."

    Anyang could not resist adding for Ji Yuan: Part time schr in studying the female cultivators.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Great God Panguughed heartily before continuing, "Below the deste mists are numerous chasms and valleys that reach all the way to the bottom. Just how deep it is? It is ten times taller than the tallest peak in the Celestial Realm¡­"

    "Even taller than the Endless Mountains that border the Nine Celestial Fraternity?" Ji Yuan could not resist gasping with shock.

    "That''s right." The Great God Pangu said solemnly, "If you think that you have hit the bottom of the mountains below, it is merely just an illusion and it may be just the middle of a t section of the mountains below. Even the rivers that you have seen, isn''t an indication that you have reached the bottom. And if you go much lower, you will start to see oceans ofva that lit the darkness of the under mountains of the deste mists. However, you are not yet at the bottom yet."

    Ji Yuan''s jaws dropped, "Not yet at the bottom yet?!"

    He had actually explored below the deste mists on numerous asions and often months at a shot but he had never seen any oceans ofva; it was because it was difficult to trek down the mountains due tock of trails and visibility. It was also because the mountains below were too vast.

    The Great God Pangu nodded, "In order to reach the gates of the Nine Abyss Realms, you must first enter a subterranean world first, in which there are plenty of subterranean caverns and it can run hundreds of miles deep. And if you go deep enough into these subterranean caverns, you may be able to find the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms."

    All of a sudden Ji Yuan had a bad feeling about this and he quickly said, "Erm, Great God Pangu. I still I got a stomach ache. Please excuse me¡­"

    The Great God Pangu had suddenly rooted Ji Yuan to the ground by patting him on his shoulder, "You can shit here and listen to me. I don''t mind at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "I am a golden celestial so I don''t need to shit. I mean my cultivation elixir sea is a little unstable right now so I need to go to a quiet ce to stabilize it. Hahaha¡­"

    The Great God Pangu ignored Ji Yuan''sints and he began to say solemnly, "Even if we are immortals, the Nine Abyss Realms is off limit to us. It is because there is a true god of the Nine Abyssal Realms and she is the Philosopher Goddess. That is why I need you to bring us a Divine Philosopher Stone from the Nine Abyss Realms. This is to rece the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Surely you don''t need think you can obtain the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and then forget all about it? This is what you have owed us and to the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan said, "Erm, I don''t understand. Aren''t you the Creator of the Three Known Realms? Howe you can''t enter the Nine Abyss Realms? Surely a great true divinity like you can easily enter into the Nine Abyss Realm?"

    The Great God Pangu exined patiently, "This Philiosper Goddess is a half-step true divinity and has since created a separate domain of her own deep in the recess of the under mountains of the Celestial Realm. This separate domain is the Nine Abyss Realms and not even the Great Demon God can easily enter it."

    Ji Yuan asked with a bitter look, "If the Great Demon God and you cannot even enter it, how can I even enter it?"

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "It only prevent an immortal from entering it but you aren''t an immortal despite your cultivation realm."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "This isn''t a good idea, am I right? It may take me months to reach the bottom of the deste mists. By then the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods would have started. I may miss it."

    The Great God Pangu said, "I can send you to the bottom of the deste mists in an instant but you still have to explore the subterranean caverns to find a way to the Nine Abyss Realms."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly turned solemnly and he had said coldly, "What if I say no to this?"

    The Great God Pangu looked at Ji Yuan, "You dare to refuse me?"

    Ji Yuan said firmly, "In normal circumstances, I wouldn''t say no. But I have to go to the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. It is because the Great Beyond Goddess had told me that I may have a chance to see my Jiajia again. Even if you kill me on the spot, I will still want to go to the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods to see my Jiajia!"

    All of a sudden, the Great God Pangu began to sign heavily. "Do you have any idea how dangerous the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods will be? You shouldn''t go to that ce in the first ce."

    Ji Yuan said unwaveringly, "I''ve already made up my mind to go there."

    The Great God Pangu was startled as he stared at Ji Yuan but what he saw was a strong determination that would not waver even under his powerful gaze; the conviction in Ji Yuan''s heart was extremely firm and he was not lying about this.

 Chapter 1233 Ji Yuanâ€™s New Trial

    <h4>Chapter 1233 Ji Yuan''s New Trial </h4>

    ?The Great God Pangu said solemnly to Ji Yuan, "I will give you a count of three to take back your words."

    Ji Yuan said unhappily and his golden eyes were firm, "What if I don''t? You will kill me?"

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "Kill you? No! You are the hero that foiled the ns of the Great Demon God to take over the Celestial Realm. Not only are you a great hero in the Celestial Realm but your renown has also been spread to the Nine Heavens. And even the Great Goddess Alice has already acknowledged you that you are indeed worthy of being her son-inw."

    Ji Yuan''s ego began to inte as heughed aloud, "Is that so? Hahaha¡­ I didn''t think that my renown will even be known in the Nine Heavens. This is nothing at all, Hahaha¡­"

    Although he was saying humbly so, he had actually meant the opposite and it pleased him to no ends that his renown was known even in the Nine Heavens.

    Ji Yuan was never a humble man, not in the least bit.

    And he loves to exaggerate his tales especially when he was drinking with his drinking brothers. And he exaggerated too when he was not drinking too.

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "If we can rece the artefact soul core of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with the Divine Philosopher Stone in a timely fashion, we can still hope to revive it with a new spirit entity. But if we don''t then we need to nurture a new spirit entity and it will take thousands of years to nurture a new one¡­"

    "This Divine Philosopher Stone will be able to replicate some of the memories of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for the new spirit entity to awaken quickly but it has to be used quickly. If it is longer than 3 months then it won''t be effective."

    He then looked at Ji Yuan, "I can give you a special gold token. Once the Great Beyond Goddess has announced the opening of the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods, I willmunicate with you directly and I will bring you back."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "How will you be able to bring me back? You can''t even enter the Nine Abyss Realms."

    The Great God Panguughed jovially, "That is easy. Crashing the gold token that I have given you will bring you to me."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "If you are in the Nine Heavens, I will be taken to you as well?"

    The Great God Pangu grinned, "Of course no. But you will still be able tomunicate with me. This is an immortal gold token after all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    If you are in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, what good is this gold token then? I can''t teleport to you.

    The Great God Panguughed as though he could hear Ji Yuan''s thoughts, "But of course, I will be staying here in the Celestial Realm until the opening of the Ancient Battleground of the Ancient Gods. Therefore, you can crush this gold token and return to my side."

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan''s ugly look had turned pleasant and he wasughing heartily again. "Hahaha¡­ why don''t you say so earlier? Well, if I can return anytime to go to the Ancient Battleground of the Ancient Gods, I actually don''t mind at all. Haha¡­"

    It was true that he did not mind at all.

    In fact, he was always curious about new ces and new trials.

    And he was already grinning as he thought: Am I going to be the first celestial cultivator to go to the Nine Abyss Realms? But even if I didn''t manage to find that ce, I can still be the first celestial cultivator to explore the bottom of the deste mists. Haha¡­

    The Great God Pangu was quite surprised to see the sudden eagerness that was written all over Ji Yuan''s face.

    Ji Yuan asked the Great God Pangu, "So, when can I set off? Now?"

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "Wait for Sisi to return."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Sisi is alsoing with me?"

    The Great God Pangu grinned as he nodded, "That''s right."

    Ji Yuan immediately said with great seriousness, "Actually you just need me. I can handle this dangerous undertaking all by myself."

    Actually, he was d to have Shui Xisi to go on this trip with me and he won''t be so bored. But in front of the Great God Pangu, he had to show his manliness and he was also trying to impress his future father-inw.

    The Great God Pangu slowly nodded, "Alright then. I will respect your wishes then. You shall go on your own then."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He quickly said, "Actually we ought to wait for Sisi to return. Maybe she wants to go with me to look for the Nine Abyss Realms. If she wants to, then it is unwise to disallow her to follow me. Do you agree with me?"

    The Great God Pangu pondered before he said solemnly, "On the other hand, this may be too dangerous for a maiden like Sisi to undertake. It may even be a bad idea her to go. It is wiser for her to remain here instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    I was only joking. Can you don''t be so serious?

    He weakly said, "Ern, you will also give her the gold token, right? If she crashes it then she will return to your side. Then she won''t be in any real danger, right?"

    The Great God Pangu answered, "Indeed I will give you a gold token as well. But what if the danger is too sudden and she didn''t have the chance to use the gold token? Therefore, it is better for you to go alone."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Great God Pangu then handed Ji Yuan a gold token and he said to him, "We can use this gold token tomunicate only once. Be sure to use this sparingly if you got any questions. I will let you know immediately once it is time for the opening of the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. Come, let me send you on your way now. Farewell and good luck!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1234 The Golden Invincible Force (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1234 The Golden Invincible Force (1) </h4>

    ?

    Ji Yuan panicky said, "Wait! Wait! I think I ought to say farewell to Sisi first. Also, I need to pass a message to my maidens through her as well."

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "You can pass your message to me and I will help you to deliver it."

    Ji Yuan said quickly, "This won''t do. This is something personal. Hahaha¡­"

    The Great God Pangu chuckled, "I am just curious. Just now, why did you want Sisi to go with you to the Nine Abyss Realms for?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "That is because she is smart and she will be able to help me to locate the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms."

    He was actually thinking of banging her all the time if they could be together.

    And while Ji Yuan was thinking of banging Shui Xisi, he was feeling quite delightful in his heart.

    The Great God Pangu suddenly said to him with a wry smile, "You didn''t know that a True Divinity can read your surface thoughts, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was suddenly stammering now, "Erm, you aren''t kidding me. Am I right?"

    Then the Great God Pangu said slowly, "You are thinking of having fun with my daughter in front of me¡­"

    Ji Yuan was truly panicky now as he stammered panicky, "Wait! Wait! This isn''t what I mean¡­ wait a minute¡­ you mean you can read my thoughts all along?!"

    The Great God Pangu nodded, "You are truly an honest liar."

    Ji Yuan broke into a cold sweat, "I can exin this¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had remembered his conversations with Destiny as well and he was horrified when he had thought that she could read his mind as well.

    Don''t tell me that she can read my mind that I want to bang her as well?!

    The Great God Pangu frowned, "And you are thinking of having fun with that maiden when I am questioning you about my daughter?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Erm, I was only testing if you can read my mind. Now I believe you. That is only a test and isn''t real."

    The Great God Pangu said solemnly to Ji Yuan, "I really can''t see how my two daughters will take a liking you considered that you are too shameless and have only a beautiful face."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "I can fight pretty well too."

    "I have to admit that and that you are pretty lucky too." The Great God Pangu said, "Also, you have made it so far without any exterior help. Perhaps, in these times of troubles, we do need a shameless cultivator like you."

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Actually I am an honest cultivator. If you don''t believe, you can ask Sisi about this."

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "Not long ago, she had sent me a transmission to ask me to meet a shameless cultivator called Ji Yuan and she told me that she had never met a more shameless cultivator than this Ji Yuan."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Does she have to screw me in front of my future father-inw?

    The Great God Pangu could of course hear what was on Ji Yuan''s mind and he wasughing heartily.

    All of a sudden, he had turned to say solemnly to Ji Yuan. "Your inner spiritual sea is golden. This means that you have attained the True Invincible Golden Body like me¡­"

    Suddenly he had disyed nine golden hovering spheres around him and startling Ji Yuan.

    "This is my Golden Invincible Force, a profound art that could absorb profound forces. But it is far stronger than any profound aura since it creates a physical inertia barrier called the pin point barrier that could also absorb any shocks as well. Because it is capable of absorbing profound forces, it is also capable of transferring as well. I will now impart my Golden Invincible Force to you."

    Ji Yuan was shocked, "You are imparting your Golden Invincible Force to me? That means that you will lose your Golden Invincible Force, right? Then what about you? And why?"

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "Silly. It means that I have acknowledged you as my son-inw."

    Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning; he had actually been quite anxious that he had left a bad impression for the Great God Pangu.

    The Great God Pangu then use his palm to hit Ji Yuan in his chest as he said solemnly, "This Golden Invincible Force is one of the most powerful immortal profound arts that can render you invincible in most circumstances. Other than me, there is another person that could master all nine of the golden invincible forces and she is the Heavenly Temptress Lie Qing. Normally, you have to develop each of the golden invincible force one by one and most could only muster five or six of the golden invincible forces. Also, it won''t even be golden but blue. What you are gaining is the Ultimate Golden Invincible Force¡­"

    "¡­ however, you must note that the while the Ultimate Golden Invincible Force is formidable, it is also taxing to your profound strength. However, you can actually control the number of golden invincible force to be used. Each additional golden invincible force would require double the profound strength required. Naturally when you muster all nine of the golden invincible, you are invincible and not even a true divinity can kill you outright¡­"

    "¡­ You will need this profound skill to help you against a formidable opponent such as the Philosopher Goddess who can use a vast array of immortal profound arts that can easily crash your celestial profound arts¡­"

    "But you don''t want anyone to know that you got the Ultimate Golden Invincible Force. So only use it as ast resort."

    Ji Yuanughed heartily that he would be gaining an ultimate immortal profound art just like this, "Leave this to me! Also, I will help you to defeat that Heavenly Temptress Lie Qing to show her how awesome your Ultimate Golden Invincible Force really is. Haha¡­"

    The Great God Pangu frowned, "This won''t be necessary as she is my consort."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Oh? Hahaha¡­"

    The Great God Pangu then said, "Also, I am expecting you to return the Ultimate Golden Invincible Force back to me after you have got the Divine Philosopher Stone."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1235 The Golden Invincible Force (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1235 The Golden Invincible Force (2) </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan could feel that he was on fire as the powerful profound force of the Great God Pangu had entered into his body.

    The Great God Pangu was astonished as he transferred his profound might into Ji Yuan''s body, "Your profound energies are neither positive or negative. This is even better and it means that I can transfer the Golden Invincible Force to you with half the effort. This also means that you will be able to use 60% instead of 30% of the usual strength of my Golden Invincible Force."

    Ji Yuan said, "Why is that I feel that I am also crackling up with profound strength as well?"

    The Great God Panguughed, "That is because this is also an internal profound art too and it is called the Invincible Divine Force. Only when you have mastered the Invincible Divine Force can you have a chance to grasp the intricates of the Golden Invincible Force. However, we are skipping the Invincible Divine Force for you."

    Ji Yuan grinned shamelessly, "This won''t do. Why don''t you impart the Invincible Divine Force to me so that I can be stronger?"

    The Great God Pangu grinned back, "Haha. Actually, I don''t know this divine skill either. That''s why my Golden Invincible Force is weaker than the Heavenly Temptress. My Golden Invincible Force was imparted by Lord Judea, 1 of the 33 Heavenly Kings of the Nine Heavens."

    He then said to Ji Yuan, "With my Golden Invincible Force, you will be invincible under the heavens of the Celestial Realm and no one can defeat you."

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "That means that not even the Philosopher Goddess will be able to defeat me then. Haha¡­"

    "I mean the heavens under the Celestial Realm and not the heavens under the Nine Abyss Realms." The Great God Pangu said solemnly to him.

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Isn''t the Nine Abyss Realms under the deste mists of the Celestial Realms?"

    The Great God Pangu frowned too, "Young man, that''s different."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "You know. I am already invincible under the heavens of the Celestial Realm now. Do I even need your Golden Invincible Force to be invincible under the heavens of the Celestial Realm?"

    The Great God Pangu hummed, "You are far from it! There are still many unknowns and many strong cultivators in the Celestial Realm. Also, there are terrifying 8th and 9th rank epic profound beasts that you cannot imagine in the Celestial Realm. Therefore, you are not invincible under the heavens of the Celestial Realm yet."

    Ji Yuan frowned and looked a little disappointed, "Then who are the strong cultivators that I can''t defeat in the Celestial Realm?"

    The Great God Pangu frowned back, "You know. You really talk a lot. Do you need to care who are the stronger cultivators when you have my Golden Invincible Force? You will be the strongest under the heavens of the Celestial Realm."

    Ji Yuan protested immediately, "When I return your Golden Invincible Force to you, then I won''t be the strongest under the heavens of the Celestial Realm. I ought to know who they are, right?"

    The Great God Pangu said coldly, "Did I forget to tell you that while I am transferring my profound might to you, you ought to also keep quiet and stay focused or else there may be a bacsh that may even cripple your cultivation core?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Erm, I think you didn''t mention about it."

    "Now you know, right?" The Great God Pangu. "So, why don''t you stay focused first and stop talking?"

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I am not the one that talks first¡­"

    The Great God Pangu stared at Ji Yuan, "I can talk but you cannot talk!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered silently: How can I stay focus when you are talking to me?

    The Great God Pangu said coldly to Ji Yuan, "I can hear your thoughts."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "I forget¡­ Hahaha¡­"

    5 hourster.

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan could feel that his body was bing lighter and that he was filled with a great vigour.

    And one by one, nine golden pin-point barriers popped all around him.

    The Great God Pangu said to him, "Now I shall teach you how to control your pin-point barrier and to use it."

    Ji Yuan who had been suppressing himself to talk for 5 hours now, could not help asking. "Weird. Howe I feel so much stronger now. Even if I don''t use the Golden Invincible Force, I feel so much stronger than before."

    The Great God Pangu said weakly to him, "That is because this is your first internal profound art, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan quickly protested, "Oh no! My old man''s Yang Invincible Internal Profound Art is my first."

    The Great God Pangu frowned, "Howe I didn''t find its presence in your body?"

    Ji Yuan was looking a little sheepish; it was because he had practiced it for a few days before giving it up and he had failed to even condensed it into an internal profound energy for him to use.

    One must know that internal profound art required an extensive amount of time to cultivate and to improve.

    Basically, if one wanted to increase their internal profound strength to increase their profound power for their profound skills, they have to cultivate at least for a few hours a day.

    This is actually a necessary step and cannot be skipped.

    Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Ji Yuan''s other maidens meditate to increase their internal profound arts while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Even when they are here with Ji Yuan in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect, they have continued their internal profound art cultivation.

    The only person that are not doing any cultivation is Ji Yuan because he is purely a sword cultivator without any internal profound art.

    Ji Yuan quickly answered the Great God Pangu, "Erm, I did know but I am a little out of practice with that. I have some difort with it in the past and hence, I didn''t practice it."

    The Great God Pangu rebuked Ji Yuan as he raised his voice, "You know nothing at all! You¡­ You are really azy scoundrel!"

    Ji Yuan weakly said, "Erm, there is no need to be angry with me, right? At most I will start practicing the Yang Invincible Internal Profound Art. After all, I am still young. It is never toote to start, right?"

    The Great God Pangu frowned, "It is already toote!"

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said, "Why is it toote?"

    The Great God Pangu raised his fist with a look of exasperation at Ji Yuan, "How the heck do I know that you are such azy bum. When I transfer my Golden Invincible Force to you, I was expecting for you to have cultivated an internal profound art or two. As it is extremely difficult for internal profound arts to amalgamate together, my Golden Invincible Force is merely a thinyer that can remove by me at ater date. Also, even if two internal profound arts can amalgamate together, it won''t be the same internal profound art anymore. And you won''t be able to cultivate it further up¡­"

    JI Yuan smiled bitterly, "Erm, I don''t understand what you are trying to say¡­"

    He felt too awkward as he was toozy to sit around whole day like many of the cultivators and he did not know many of the cultivation theories of the internal profound arts.

    He did know that internal profound art can strengthen a cultivator''s profound strength but he is from a poor cultivation sect with poor resources and no superior internal profound arts for him to practice. Hence, he has never really tried to acquaint an internal profound art to cultivate.

    Simrly, most of his drinking brothers are also wasting their cultivation time or else, they won''t be called his ''drinking brothers''.

    The Great God Pangu said solemnly to Ji Yuan, "Because you don''t have an internal profound art, my Golden Invincible Force got absorbed by you to be your internal profound art. It is now impossible for me to retrieve it nor can you transfer it back to me because this is your only internal profound art. If you forcefully transfer it to me, you will either die or be a cripple. How in the Three Known Realms will a cultivator not even have any internal profound energies?!"

    Ji Yuan weaklyughed, "This isn''t a bad news for me. Hahaha¡­"

    <h4>Chapter 1236 The Golden Invincible Force (3) </h4>

    ?An hourter, Ji Yuan had finally mastered the use and control of the Golden Invincible Force under the guidance of the Great God Pangu.

    The golden hovering discs were like profound shields that could shield Ji Yuan against profound attacks simr to the Iron Shroud Aura or the Golden Aura Shield that had almost absolute profound defenses.

    Although Ji Yuan had never seen the Iron Shroud Aura or the Golden Aura Shield before but he had met many Defense Cultivators.

    Even for him, he had to admit that their profound defense was all quite formidable if they could sustain it with their profound strength.

    Most Defense Cultivators are also strong internal profound arts cultivators too.

    Most of the 12 major orthodox and unorthodox cultivation sects of the Deste Celestial Fraternity are equipped with a powerful unique internal profound art, an external profound art and several attacking profound arts.

    JI Yuan was greatly delighted that he could control the 9 hovering pin-point barriers so easily. "This doesn''t look so difficult to summon all 9 of the hovering discs?"

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "That is because you have a strong inner spiritual sea and you are at your peak now. But once you are under attack, you will feel the drain."

    Ji Yuan muttered, "I know. I know¡­"

    He had once witnessed a powerful Defense Cultivator that was taking the trial with him and Ling Feiyue. This Defense Cultivator had mustered his formidable defense profound art and he could even deflect the razor sharp des that were flying against him.

    That was until too many razor des had struck him and his profound strength was drained away in order to maintain his formidable profound shield. Eventually he was killed as he had failed to maintain his defense profound art.

    The Great God Pangu asked him, "So, how do you feel now?"

    Ji Yuanughed heartily, "I feel great."

    Then he solemnly said, "This Golden Invincible Force is able to protect my weakness and my blind spots. Now I can make unreserve attacks with my profound attacks."

    The Great God Pangu had a glimmer in his golden eyes as he looked at Ji Yuan, "Great! You are a really a born fighter to have thought of this right at the very beginning."

    Ji Yuan said, "In the past, I have to evade or use my profound attacks to block the powerful profound arts. Now I can better ward off an attack¡­"

    He was thinking of his fight with the Great Demon God.

    At that time, the two of them had exchanged their most powerful profound attacks against each other.

    When he had used up his most powerful profound attacks, he was quite helpless against the Great Demon God and he had to use his divine sword to block against him. Needless to say, it was not quite an efficient block.

    All of a sudden, he could hear the sweet voice of Shui Xisi calling for him. "Ji Yuan! You are still around?"

    She looked absolutely delightful and Ji Yuan guessed that she may have opened her Heaven Eyes and she had managed to learn the Mystic Stratosphere Divine Skill.

    She hade back alone and there was no sight of the Great Goddess Alice.

    Ji Yuan thought that it was a pity because the Great Goddess Alice was really an extremely beautiful maiden. And he also wondered the looks of the Great Goddess Fan Tian and the Heaveness.

    But he quickly discarded his thoughts when he saw that the Great God Pangu was frowning at him and he was smiling weakly; he had forgotten that the Great God Pangu could read his thoughts.

    "Hahaha¡­ I didn''t think anything funny, you know¡­"

    The Great God Pangu smiled when he saw Shui Xisi, "I''m sure that you already know that you will be going to the Nine Abyss Realms with Ji Yuan, am I right?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "My mama has told me, hehe!"

    Ji Yuan was startled as he turned to look at the Great God Pangu, "What? Sisi ising with me? But I thought that she isn''ting with me and I will be going alone?"

    The Great God Panguughed heartily as he looked at Ji Yuan, "I was only teasing you earlier. Can''t you see that I am only pulling your leg?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I really can''t tell at all."

    The Great God Pangu had suddenly turned solemn as he said to Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi, "The timing is just right. I am going to send the two of you to the Nine Abyss Realms now. Before you go, I ought to warn the two of you that you ought to be careful at all times. Don''t push yourself to fight unless you have to. And if necessary, crush the golden tokens that you have."

    Shui Xisi said, "My mama has given me your gold token already and she has also instructed me on the dangers of the Nine Abyss Realms."

    The Great God Pangu nodded, "Good! I have already lost my daughter Feifei and I don''t want to lose you too. Let me ask you one more time. Do you really want to go with Ji Yuan to the Nine Abyss Realms?"

    Shui Xisi nodded firmly, "I am willing to go with him. Moreover, I have also newlypleted my Nine Nirvana Revolutions. What Ick now is an essence of the Abyssal Fire to strengthen my Nine Nirvana Revolutions. If I am able to obtain a wisp of the Abyssal Fire in the Nine Abyss Realms then this is even better for me. I may be able to form the Nine Abyssal Phoenix profound art instead. I think that is better than the Nine Heavens Fire that my mama has wanted to give me. If I can''t obtain it, then I can use the Nine Heavens Fire instead."

    The Great God Pangu nodded, "Be careful while you are there, my child."

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "Papa, I''ve grown up now. You are too nagging. Quickly send us to the bottom of the deste mists."

    Ji Yuan was also looking quite excited too especially when he had Shui Xisi in hispany, "Haha. I will take care of Sisi. She is in good hands with me."

    The Great God Pangu slowly nodded as he took out a blue orb, "Be careful and farewell."

    With that, a blue beam of light began to overwhelm Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi as they vanished in the blue light.

    When they were gone, the Great Goddess Alice, the Great Goddess Fantian and the Heaveness slowly appeared behind the Great God Pangu.

    Without turning back, the Great God Pangu knows that it was them.

    The Great Goddess Alice asked softly, "Do you think it is really a good idea for them to go off together?"

    The Great God Panguughed heartily, "This is merely their honeymoon."

    The Great Goddess Alice looked a little exasperated, "This Ji Yuan is a little too lecherous. You are giving him all the advantages at the expenses of our daughter."

    The Great God Pangu smiled, "He has a good heart. I''m still trying to figure out how he got a golden inner spiritual sea like me¡­"

    Actually before he had met Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi had already told him all about Ji Yuan and her guesses about the Great Beyond Goddess.

    1. The Viiness is my Love Interest has 100th chapters now;)

 Chapter 1237 The Bottom of the Desolate Mist

    <h4>Chapter 1237 The Bottom of the Deste Mist </h4>

    ?All Ji Yuan could see was a blue light that overwhelmed him and Shui Xisi before he could feel the distortions in the space around him.

    In the next instant, he could feel that he was being pulled apart by the powerful profound force and there was a feeling of nausea.

    However, this feeling did notst long and he was startled to see that he was now being surrounded by pink rock formations all around him.

    The heavens above him were dark and he should be below the deste mists now.

    Shui Xisi had also appeared next to him and she was inhaling heavily as she muttered, "I feel dizzy. Ji Yuan, how about you?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I feel perfectly fine."

    Then he said with a look of concern, "DO you want to take a rest first?"

    Shui Xisi shook her head, "I''ll be fine after a while. This teleportation is too rough. Worse than inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth."

    Ji Yuanughed, "I thought it is just me that find it ufortable. So it isn''t just me that feels nausea, haha¡­"

    Although Ji Yuan was nausea earlier but he had quickly regained his orientation and sense of bnce.

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly to him, "Do you mind giving me a helping hand and let me vomit on you?"

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "I actually mind, you know¡­"

    All of a sudden, Shui Xisi had pulled him to her and then she was kissing him passionately on his lips.

    Ji Yuan responded by groping Shui Xisi''s body and feeling all over her, from her slim body to her butt and inside her short skirt.

    Shui Xisi began to inhale softly as Ji Yuan was moving his hands into her panties, "You little rascal, we should stop now. We are in hostile territory. What if there are others who are watching us in this ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Well, you have aroused me first."

    Shui Xisi chuckled shyly as she pulled herself away from Ji Yuan as she took a look around her surroundings, "Well, I have recovered now. Thanks to your awful breath."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Shui Xisi smiled as she asked him, "What do you know about the Nine Abyss Realms? Do you know why you are here?"

    Ji Yuan said, "I only know that I am supposed to find a Divine Philosopher Stone in the Nine Abyss Realms. Even the Great God Pangu cannot send me directly there and we are supposed to find an entrance inside from the numerous underground tunnels that are found below the deste mists. Also, we must be wary of the Philosopher Goddess who is the divine ruler of the Nine Abyss Realms."

    Shui Xisi nodded, "That''s right. That''s all?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Yeah. That''s all. There is more to it?"

    Shui Xisi nodded, "The Nine Abyss Realms is also the only ce where the dark celestials are able to avoid the Dark Descendant and ascended to be an immortal. Therefore, we will also be meeting lots of nasty dark celestial cultivators in the Nine Abyss Realms."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "The Nine Abyssal Realms is a ce where the dark celestials are able to ascend as an immortal?"

    Shui Xisi nodded, "Normally, one must have a pure cultivation in order to ascend as an immortal or they won''t survive the heavenly wrath. Although there are many dark celestials in the Deste Celestial Fraternity such as the five unorthodox holynds but actually very few of them are the dark heretic cultivators that practiced the dark forbidden arts such as the dark alchemy and other evil profound arts. It is because they would find it hard to ascend to the Nine Heavens even if they are peaked great saints. The only time that these evil cultivators are able to ascend to the Nine Heavens is during the times of trouble such as the Dark Descendant where the bnce of good and evil are reversed."

    Ji Yuan nodded.

    He had heard of the terrifying Dark Descendant and he was d that it did not happen during his lifetime.

    It was because during the Heavenly Wrath known as the Dark Descendant, celestials must kill celestials in order to avert this dark cmity to restore the bnce between good and evil.

    Much of the Dark Descendant was actually recorded in the Investiture of the Gods, a known celestial mythology book.

    Thest Dark Descendant was actually prevented by the Nine Celestial Goddess Ye Jing and the Great Heroine Fan Yuqing. That was the reason why Ye Jing was known as the Nine Celestial Goddess. This was actually an immortal title that was given to her by the Great Goddess Fan Tian and the Great God Pangu.

    That is also why Ye Jing is also known as the Great Heroine.

    Aiding her was Fan Yuqing and because of her aid to avert the Dark Descendant, she is also known as the Great Heroine.

    They managed to avert the Dark Descendant by forcing the descend of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth to the Celestial Realm every 500 years so that the celestials from the Celestial Realm can fight inside and reducing the number of golden celestials in the Celestial Realm.

    Of course, they can only postpone the terrifying Dark Descendant but this was good enough.

    Ji Yuan had read that the Great God Pangu had once killed many of his friends, including his maidens during the Dark Descendant so that he may live through it.

    During the Dark Descendant, all the cultivators must kill at least 7 cultivators of the same realm or above cultivators or they would all die.

    At the same time, they would be able to gain some of the cultivation attainment of the cultivators that they had killed.

    Naturally the Dark Descendant is a period where the dark celestials actually wee its arrival so that they could ascend to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

    Most cultivators during the Dark Descendant won''t stop killing at 7 because once they could reach the peak sacred saint level, they would ascend to the Nine Heavens immediately and the chances for it is 100%.

    There are many stories of even the most orthodox cultivators bing an evil cultivator, killing even their own family and n in order to ascend to be a true immortal.

    Even though the Nine Celestial Goddess Ye Jing is from the Nine Celestial Fraternity, Ji Yuan had long heard of her renown as she is the savior of the Celestial Realm and there are few cultivators that did not know of the renown of the Nine Celestial Goddess Ye Jing.

    That is the reason why Ji Yuan was so excited when he saw Ye Jing back in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth even though he did not know that she was merely an avatar doll that was created by the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

    At one point of time, every male cultivator had fantasized being with the Nine Celestial Goddess Ye Jing or Great Heroine Fan Yuqing and Ji Yuan was not an exception.

    Shui Xisi said to Ji Yuan as she interrupted his thoughts, "The Nine Abyss Realms is where the dark celestials are able to ascend to the Nine Heavens every 100 years. However, because it is only limit to only 5 every 100 years, the dark celestials there will all be fighting hotly over the 5 positions. As for the exact details, I do not know. It is for us to find out."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Well, we are not contesting with them anyway. Hahaha¡­ moreover, the two of us should be stronger than them, right?"

    Shui Xisi frowned, "They are dark celestials. Do you think that they have martial honor? That is why I am here to watch over you."

    Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently to himself, "I am more worried for you¡­"

    "What did you just say?" Shui Xisi asked him.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Nothing. Hahaha¡­"

    He quickly said, "I was just thinking that the opposite thing should happen to the Dark Abyssal Realm or other dark heavenly realms."

    Shui Xisi smiled, "That''s right. Smart."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly as he had randomly cooked up with an excuse.

    Then he jumped up to a pink rock above to take a better look at his surroundings.

    All of a sudden he was suddenly gasping, "Sisi, look!"

    Shui Xisi jumped next to him and she was also gasping softly too.

    It was because in front of them was a vast ocean of thick flowingva and there were manyrge ''inds'' on it.

    Ji Yuan said with a look of awe, "It''s no wonder why I thought that this ce is hot."

    Then he grinned, "Wanna start by exploring these inds first?"

    -----------------------------

    Author Note:

    1. This is the start of a new story arc.

    2. The maidens'' mini story arcs are divided into 3 main parts: Before Ji Yuan fight against the Great Demon God, after the fight with the Great Demon God and after Ji Yuan''s celebratory banquet.

 Chapter 1238 The Mysterious Island (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1238 The Mysterious Ind (1) </h4>

    ?There were numerous pink and red rock formations all around the ce.

    In front of Ji Yuan was an ocean ofva and there were manyrge inds that could be seen by him and Shui Xisi.

    Since they had no idea where to go in order to find the entrance of the Nine Abyss Realms, they decided to take a look at one of the biggest inds that had many gigantic mushrooms on it.

    As Ji Yuan flew with Shui Xisi across the ocean ofva, he chuckled to her. "Sisi, do you think that a gigantic profound beast would suddenly jump out of theva to eat us as we hover above it?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She muttered, "I shouldn''t have listened to you in the first ce. Maybe we ought to explore the dry interior instead ofing in this direction. The smouldering smoke in this ce is really too suffocating and it even impair my divine sense."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "You got a 9th realm half-immortal guide here. Hahaha. Just follow me. If there is anything danger to be seen, I will protect you."

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes as she murmured, "Not too long ago, I was the one that was protecting you."

    That not too long ago was when they were in the Spiritas Tower and Shui Xisi had even found a Dao Fruit for Ji Yuan to consume.

    Ji Yuanughed at her remarks and he felt great that he got to protect Shui Xisi.

    Actually, there was nothing below theva and therefore they were in no dangers from any profound beasts.

    Ji Yuan was only teasing her since his divine sense was not impaired by the thick deste aura in this ce or by the smog below them.

    They soon hoard of profound beasts on the ind and were startled and there were many 7th rank profound beasts among them, making them dangerous.

    Luckily, they couldn''t fly and they had just roared at Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi in a threatening manner to warn them off from the spirit nts that they were protecting.

    "How the heck did these deste beasts get into the inds?" Ji Yuan was amazed.

    Shui Xisi said, "Either they are already there before the ocean ofva appeared or they can swim across theva."

    Ji Yuan gulped at the ocean ofva, "You got to be kidding me, right? Theva here can even melt divine swords."

    Shui Xisiughed, "Not your immortal divine swords though. But anything below a saintly divine sword is possible."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly thought of a curious question, "I wonder how do these weapon smiths forge a divine sword?"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes as she thought: Do you have to ask me such a low level question when you are a high level cultivator?

    But she quickly exined, "Well, powerful divine swords such as a saintly divine sword can only be forged in the Nine Heavens with the Heavens Fire. But even then, it is hard to obtain. As for true immortal swords, most of them aren''t forged and they are birthed by the heavens and the earth."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Just like my immortal scabbard and my true divinity sword."

    "That''s right." Shui Xisi answered him, "They are the true profound treasures of the heavens and the earth. Even an immortal will be coveting for your two profound treasures."

    Then she smiled, "As for the Golden Natal Divine Pearl, it is a true divinity profound treasure that even the immortals will want to obtain to increase their cultivation but you have actually absorbed it."

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "That''s too bad for them because this is a gift from my master the Old Reverend Beiyuan to me. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Indeed it is too bad for them and that is why you have amalgamated the Golden Natal Divine Pearl now."

    Then she thought of something that was rted to this, "So, what did my papa the Great God Pangu says to you? Did he give you anything?"

    Ji Yuanughed loudly, "Sisi, you won''t believe it. The Great God Pangu has actually imparted to me his Golden Invincible Force. Under the heavens of the Celestial Realm, I am now invincible."

    Then he grinned yfully to her, "And you won''t believe how silly your papa is. He has actually thought of lending me his Golden Invincible Force butter, he has found out that he cannot take it back because I have absorbed it. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi was also smiling wryly, "Is that so?"

    She was thinking with a wry smile and trying to suppress herughter: Why don''t you say that the Great God Pangu knows that you have no internal profound art and that is why you are able to absorb his Golden Invincible Force? You didn''t know that I had told my papa all about you, am I right? And that he has purposely imparted his Golden Invincible Force to you?

    She asked on purpose, "So what do you think of the Great God Pangu?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Well, I was so shocked when I had learnt that he is the Great God Pangu. It is actually quite astonishing that I am able to talk to a True God of the Celestial Realm just like this. He didn''t have any airs. He isn''t quite the Great God Pangu that I had imagined previously. Your mother consort is pretty beautiful though¡­ hehe¡­"

    "You have better don''t have any funny ideas on my mother consort or she will sunder you into many parts and scattered your remains throughout the Celestial Realm." Shui Xisi reminded him.

    "Oh. Hahaha¡­" But Ji Yuan justughed jovially.

    Then he quickly said, "I bet that the Great God Pangu is still feeling sour over the loss of his Golden Invincible Force now. I hope that he will quickly get over his disappointment. It isn''t my fault that I am able to absorb his Golden Invincible Force. Do you agree with me?"

    Shui Xisi simply smiled but she was thinking in her heart: Silly, my papa has already epted you as his disciple in his heart. He is only ying with you. One of these days, you will die without knowing why.

    But she decided not to tell Ji Yuan because he had been too inted with his ego ever since his victory over the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly said, "Look. There is a clearing among the towering mushrooms there. Maybe we cannd there. I don''t see any deste beasts in that vicinity. Also, there is a mountain there too and there are many caves. Maybe we can try our luck there."

    Shui Xisi answered Ji Yuan, "Alright. Let''s go then."

    And they were soon speeding in the direction that Ji Yuan had pointed out.

 Chapter 1239 The Mysterious Island (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1239 The Mysterious Ind (2) </h4>

    ?When Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi hadnded on the clearing of this big ind, they saw that the mushrooms here were even more towering than it looked on the ground; these mushrooms were ten times their height and twenty times their width, with colors of white, red, pink and yellow.

    Ji Yuan grinned to Shui Xisi, "I wonder if these mushrooms are edible?"

    Shui Xisi stared at him, "Why don''t you try?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Maybe I can collect some of the parts back. It may be useful to some alchemists. But all these mushrooms are too big to fit into my spatial storage. Maybe I just look for some small ones that are growing at the base."

    Shui Xisi said to him, "You know. These mushrooms are called the Thousand Illusions Shrooms. If you go too near to them, you may even get hallucinations and then died at its base. Why do you think that there are no deste beasts around them? Also, their spores may even turn you into a mindless walking zombie as well. So it is not advisable for you to walk too near to them."

    Ji Yuan weakly looked at Shui Xisi, "Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "So without me to tell you, you will go around and eat strange mushrooms? You should be thankful that I am in this ce with you."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Maybe without you, I may be in another safer location and there will be no mushrooms around. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi said to him with some exasperations, "Ji Yuan, you are too shameless!"

    Ji Yuanughed as he hurried his steps, "Quick. Let''s go and explore the caves. Maybe we can find something."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Why are you in such a hurry? Slow down. We have all the time in the world."

    Ji Yuan turned around to grin at her, "There are many uses for a cave besides finding the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms."

    "Oh? What other uses?" Shui Xisi asked curiously as she could not think of any other uses.

    Ji Yuan replied with a yful wink, "Such as banging the future immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens in there."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She was startled by Ji Yuan''s reply but she was soon lowering her head shyly as she shed past Ji Yuan, "Stop talking rubbish and let''s go."

    Ji Yuanughed behind her, "Sisi, why are you in such a hurry than me? Are you getting impatient already?"

    Shui Xisi was actually flustered by Ji Yuan''s words and she did not want him to see her face; that was why she had hurried past him and not because of the reason that Ji Yuan had mentioned to her.

    "You badass rascal. Can you be more serious? We are in a treacherous ce and we ought to be careful."

    She had quickly warned Ji Yuan before shing up several times to a cave that was on the ledge.

    Ji Yuan followed behind her as they entered this dark cave together.

    Like the many rock formations in this ce, it was pinkish to red and this cave was not an exception.

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi took a look around and saw that while this cave was not big but there were passages that led them deeper into the mountains.

    Shui Xisi asked him, "So shall we explore the passages?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he began to take out a mat from his spatial storage to sit downfortably.

    "What are you doing, Ji Yuan?" Shui Xisi was astonished, "You are not exploring the passages?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he winked at her, "What''s the hurry? We can do itter. Come, sit down with me."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "You are really not in a hurry toplete your mission."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "This is mission impossible. There are tens of thousands of caves and tunnels in this ce. And only the right one would get us into the Nine Abyss Realms. The possibility of finding the right tunnel is extremely slim. This probably won''t be the right one. So what''s the hurry?"

    Shui Xisi weakly said, "Well, there are rumors that there are actually 9 ways to enter the Nine Abyss Realms and hence, the ce is named as such. Also, the tunnels may actually be all connected together so it may eventually get us to the Nine Abyssal Realms."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Sisi, you are being too optimistic. The possibility is too low and moreover, we are in the middle of an ind. The caves here will lead us to nowhere except the mountain here. Or maybe, we may even find a way to the top of the deste mists. Haha¡­"

    Shui Xisi asked Ji Yuan with some suspicions, "Is that why you have chosen to explore an ind instead of the interior?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I have promised the Great God Pangu to find the Divine Philosopher Stone. Problem is, I don''t know where to find the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms. The Celestial Realm is too big and our Deste Celestial Fraternity is but a small part of the Celestial Realm. The Great God Pangu had said that the world under the deste mists are 10 times bigger. With no maps, it is impossible to find the way to the Nine Abyss Realms. It may take us hundreds or even thousands of years to even find the entrance. Or even forever."

    He was being realistic when he was telling Shui Xisi about it.

    It was impossible for him to find the Divine Philosopher Stone in less than 2 months; the Great God Pangu had told him that he had to find the Divine Philosopher Stone within 3 months to awaken the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth once again.

    But ever since he had obtained the artefact soul of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, more than 1 month had already passed.

    That was why he had less than 2 months to find the Divine Philosopher Stone.

    To Ji Yuan, this was but an impossible task and a mission impossible.

    That was why he was in no hurry.

    It was not because he was not eager to find the Nine Abyss Realms since he enjoyed visiting new ces and trials.

    But he really had no idea where to start searching for the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms.

    Shui Xisi sighed softly as she sat down next to Ji Yuan, "I know that this may be a little hard¡­"

    No sooner had she sat down next to Ji Yuan, he was already putting his hands on her back before caressing down to her waist and was even looking lecherous at her.

    She frowned, "What are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan protested weakly, "Erm, I am afraid that you may feel a little cold in the cave."

    Shui Xisi said coldly to him, "It is hot in this ce. Will I feel cold in this ce?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Erm, then you want to take off your clothing since you feel hot?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

 Chapter 1240 Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi

    <h4>Chapter 1240 Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi were soon kissing each other passionately in the cave as they began to embrace together.

    Shui Xisi giggled softly to Ji Yuan, "This time round, there are no others but us in this ce."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Indeed. It is just the two of us."

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan began to ponder aloud. "Hmm, I wonder why the Great God Pangu sends you to help me? He isn''t afraid that I will take advantage of you?"

    Shui Xisi immediately interrupted Ji Yuan as she pushed him down, "Stop thinking about other matters. We have something more important to do right now."

    Ji Yuanughed as he looked at the naked body of Shui Xisi, "You know. I totally have to agree with you¡­"

    With that, he had jumped upon Shui Xisi.

    What followed next was their passionate sounds of their lovemaking.

    Because there was no pressure from anyone, they were able to indulged fully with each other for a day and a night until they were both spent and were looking satisfied.

    After that, Ji Yuan stroked Shui Xisi''s naked body as he grinned to her. "You know. When you are the immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens, won''t I be the ruler of the Nine Heavens as well?"

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "Dream on! You will be just my subject. Also, you will be my male harlot and have a lowly status. If you want to be my lord consort, then you have to fight with the rest of my harem first."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned, "Never! You will only have me as your only male harlot. As for the others, I will kill them all, even little boys."

    Shui Xisi said with some exasperations, "You are too meanie and too cruel. The Nine Heavens have manyws that you have to be subjected to. When you are in the immortal realm, you have to listen to me because I am your ruler."

    Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes, "What if I don''t?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she put her head on Ji Yuan''s naked chest, "Then all the immortals in my heavenly court will be there to rip you apart like tofu."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "You know something. I have suddenly decided to stay in the Celestial Realm. Here, I am the king. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi bit Ji Yuan''s nipple, "You dare!"

    Of course, the two of them were only teasing with each other and Shui Xisi only had Ji Yuan in her heart.

    And Ji Yuan knows that too and that''s why he was not offended by her jokes.

    Shui Xisi slowly looked dreamily at Ji Yuan with soft and tender eyes; actually, she knows that Ji Yuan''s mission was impossible just as he had said.

    In fact, it was also high likely that they would never be able to find the Nine Abyss Realms at all.

    When her mother consort the Great Goddess Celestial Alice had first told her about the Nine Abyss Realms and that they had decided to send Ji Yuan to obtain the Divine Philosopher Stone there to revive the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, she was startled and argued that it was mission impossible.

    And she had even argued that Ji Yuan may perish in that ce.

    The Great Goddess Alice had smiled wryly to her and said, "We will give him a profound treasure to exit the ce so don''t worry about that."

    Shui Xisi had said, "This isn''t the main point, right? This mission, is it even possible to aplish in the first ce?"

    The Great Goddess Alice had answered with a smile, "Silly. This is just a honeymoon for you and him before the opening of the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods. It doesn''t matter to us if Ji Yuan is able to find the Divine Philosopher Stone or not. It is for the two of you to spend time together."

    It was only then that Shui Xisi had finally understood the intentions of her mother consort.

    She was soon giggling softly, "Is that so? Hehe. I didn''t say that I like him, you know. He is just a toad that is lusting after me, that''s all. As I am actually quite a gracious maiden, I have decided to keep him alive to lick my boot."

    The Great Goddess Alice: ¡­

    She had added further with a delightful smile, "He is lucky that he got a beautiful face that can entertain me when I am bored. But I have no real interest in him."

    The Great Goddess Alice: ¡­

    She continued to chuckle, "My Sister Feifei is in love with him and now she is no longer with us. If he isn''t technically my brother-inw, I would have kicked him away a long time ago¡­"

    "You know, mama. Ji Yuan is a really shameless man. You got to be with him in order to know how shameless he is. He is always exaggerating his ims. He can use these cheap tricks on the other maidens but not me. I just find it hard to believe that there are some of his maidens like Tang Manni, Xu Yifei and Little Jie''Er that actually believe every single word that he had said¡­"

    "Also, he is also a lecherous cultivator. Do you know how many maidens that Ji Yuan have? He has more maidens than even my papa! This is too ridiculous!"

    The Great Goddess Alice smiled, "Surely he have a virtue or two, right? Or else, he won''t be able to attract so many maidens including my Feifei to like him?"

    She had answered with some exasperations, "Virtues? Hehe! His only virtues are his beautiful face and his ability to sweet talk the maidens!"

    Then she had raised her fists to say angrily, "Do you think that I will like someone like this shameless Ji Yuan?"

    The Great Goddess Alice smiled wryly, "Alright then. Then I won''t force you to go with him to the Nine Abyss Realms. He can go off all by himself and you can finally have a peace of mind for several months. There won''t be any toad that will be bootlicking my precious daughter at least for the time being."

    Shui Xisi had panicky said, "Wait mama! Who says I am not going to the Nine Abyss Realms with him?"

    Then she turned her golden eyes away with a coyly look, "Someone got to see that he did not mess up or hook up with some evil maidens along the way? Don''t you think so? I guess that I have to sacrifice myself to ensure that this thing don''t happen."

    "It is alright. I won''t ask my daughter to sacrifice herself," the Great Goddess Alice smiled. "He will go alone."

    Shui Xisi began to stammer, "For the sake of my Sister Feifei, I have decided to sacrifice myself."

    The Great Goddess Alice pretended to sigh softly at her reply but she had quickly turned to ask quietly, "In your report to us, you say that the Great Beyond Goddess seemed to know Feifei?"

    Shui Xisi slowly nodded, "She called me Sisi. That is weird instead. Mama, do you think that my Sister Feifei is still alive?"

    The Great Goddess Alice was suddenly looking mncholy, "I have used all the profound treasures at my disposal to verify it but¡­ I still unable to confirm if she is still alive¡­"

 Chapter 1241 Dangerous Encounter in the Cave

    <h4>Chapter 1241 Dangerous Encounter in the Cave </h4>

    ?After Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi had put on their clothing, they were both holding hands tenderly as they decided to explore the cave together.

    Ji Yuan sighed softly as he looked at Shui Xisi.

    Even though she had many simrities to his Jiajia but she was still not his Jiajia.

    Ji Yuan loves her for who she is, just like he loves all his maidens for their unique personalities.

    However, Xia Jiajia is like his heart demon and she has upied a very special ce in his heart.

    In fact, he is still using the divine sword that Jiajia had given him 100 years ago and this is the only thing that Jiajia had left for him.

    But he is still hopeful that he would see his Jiajia soon because isn''t this what the Great Beyond Goddess had said to him?

    If he goes to the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods then he would be able to see his Jiajia again.

    Maybe it would be just a soul fragment of his Jiajia but it would still be her.

    No matter if she has a physical body or not, he would not forsake her as long as she could be with him.

    Even if the cost is high, he would do everything that he could be with her and he would go to the ends of the earth to look for any profound treasures to revive her.

    This was of course a false hope because all the cultivators know that there is no such thing as a resurrection.

    Even the immortals know that it is impossible to bring someone back from the dead.

    Even a good-for-nothing cultivator like Ji Yuan knows about this too.

    That is why the cultivators are constantly seeking immortality so that they could live forever.

    There were actually three passages in this cave.

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi picked the bigger passage so they could explore morefortably.

    As they walked along the passage way, Shui Xisi asked Ji Yuan a question that was bottoming in her heart for a long time. "What do you think of my sessor, Shui Qingqing?"

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "She is a good maiden."

    "You like her then? Then why don''t you make her into your maiden?" Shui Xisi asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "She is likeable but I like her master more. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi asked with a wry smile, "So, if I am not around then you will take her as your maiden?"

    Ji Yuan answered honestly, "I am not too sure about this. She is a little too innocent. I like badass maidens like you¡­"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly given him a kick on his foot, "Be serious and tell me the truth!"

    Ji Yuanughed before he said solemnly, "She is really a good maiden but I am the one that is badass. I don''t want to ruin my heroic image in front of her."

    Shui Xisiughed softly, "You will have a heroic image?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Well, I am a hero and savior of the Deste Celestial Fraternity, right? Therefore, I am a hero."

    Shui Xisi continued tough jovially, "Heroic image in front of her¡­ hehe. This is really funny."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "In her heart, I am her hero and has a heroic image. But actually, I don''t feel worthy of being a hero."

    Shui Xisiughed, "So you are afraid of letting her know your true self and you are afraid that this may be awkward to your face?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do you have to be so blunt? What about you? Aren''t you afraid of letting the others, especially Qingqing to know about our rtionship?"

    Shui Xisi was startled before she muttered, "This is so true¡­"

    Then she began to sigh softly, "I don''t mind the others knowing about this but I am afraid of letting Qingqing to know about this."

    Ji Yuan asked her, "Why?"

    Shui Xisi awkwardly said, "I''ve been emphasising to her all this while that it is immoral to share the same lord as her mistress. We are an orthodox cultivation sect and also a respected holy cultivation sect of the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Therefore, our Water Melody Pce has to uphold a certain moral standard."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "So you mean you''ve shot yourself in your foot? If I am with Qingqing, then you must be my secret lover from now onward?"

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She hummed by giving Ji Yuan an unpleasant look, "You dare?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Although I dare but you don''t have to worry about this. I dare not ept Qingqing''s love for me."

    Shui Xisi smiled wryly, "I''ve heard that you have promised to give her a proper ounting when you are back from the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "She even told you about this?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly, "Of course. And she was so happy about it. You have certainly given her a hope."

    Ji Yuan said bitterly, "She is only thinking about the positive aspect. She didn''t consider the fact that I may reject her."

    Shui Xisi began to sigh softly, "She is praying for your safe return and when you do, you will then ask me for her hand. That is what she is thinking."

    Ji Yuan pped his face, "Maybe I should get myself killed in the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods instead¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had stopped talking and he was disyed his ck true divinity sword as he looked ahead of them, "There is something there."

    "I''ve sensed it too as well." Shui Xisi was also rmed.

    They did not think that there would be something in these tunnels.

    A huge ck armored deste beast had suddenly appeared from the darkness of the passage that was in front of him.

    It had two gigantic ck ws and eight sharp talons on its back; it was truly a hideous monstrosity.

    Ji Yuan muttered with some rm, "6th rank deste beast¡­ but it is a supreme profound deste beast¡­"

    Even Shui Xisi was rmed because next to an epic ss, the supreme ss was the next powerful.

    "Wait here." Ji Yuan said to Shui Xisi as he shed to attack the deste monster.

    With a quick swing of his divine sword and his sword energies, Ji Yuan had swiftly cut off one of its gigantic ck ws but he was unable to make further progress in his attacks before he was forced to evade out of the way from its eight talons that hade down upon him like wind des.

    Ji Yuan quickly evaded the attacks as he gasped, "This thing is fast. Luckily, I am fast in my reflex as well¡­"

    All of a sudden, the severed gigantic ck w had been reattached by the deste beast and it was as good as new.

    Shui Xisi gasped, "Rapid regeneration and instant healing. This deste beast is not easy to beat and it can easily kill a great saint. Be careful Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly as he raised his divine sword in front of him and he did not care to be careless.

    A 6th rank supreme profound beast can easily be equaled to a normal 8th rank profound beast plus it would also have several unique abilities.

    Also, its sharp talons of this 6th rank supreme profound beast could easily severe the limbs and body of even a great saint!

 Chapter 1242 The Strange Altar

    <h4>Chapter 1242 The Strange Altar </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan grinned at the 6th rank supreme deste beast that was in front of him before he unleashed his 9 flying divine swords from the immortal scabbard that was on his back.

    In that very instant, his 9 flying divine swords were empowered by his sword energies through his Flying Swords Domain and he had sliced the profound beast that was in front of him to many pieces.

    Then he quickly disyed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to awash all the fallen parts with his lethal sword energies to make sure that this deste beast did not regenerate again.

    "Haha¡­ even though you have nimble reflexes and more limbs than me but do you think that I will take the risk of confronting you head on?"

    The instant that Ji Yuan had drawn his ck divine sword against this 6th rank deste beast, he had already known how nimble this monster was and that he would even feel the wind des of this monster that were threatening to rip him apart.

    But Ji Yuan was not about to be concerned to the blind spot by this monster and he had purposely stepped backward to make another attack.

    He turned to grin at Shui Xisi, "Don''t worry. I will protect you, Sisi. Are you impressed by my sword skill?"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes before smiling with a wry look, "I can handle this monster alone too. Do I need your help to kill it?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Well, at least you ought to say a gratitude or two to me, right?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "I already did more than that. I''ve given you my body earlier. What''s more do you want?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled jovially, "I want another bang¡­"

    "Shameless!" Shui Xisi hummed as she walked past him with a coyly look.

    She was not angry actually.

    Ji Yuanughed aloud as he quickly walked next to her and as he caught up with her, he began to p her butt.

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    "Do you have to do that in broad daylight?"

    Ji Yuan grinned yfully, "I only see darkness in this cave."

    He did not stop fondling her butt though and was even feeling under her skirt as they walked together while asking, "Do you think that there are more than one of these deste beasts around? It will be tricky if there are many and we may not be able to handle if there are too many of them."

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "So say the one that has defeated the Great Demon God. Well, I have you to protect me so I''m not worried at all."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Can I take back my words earlier? Maybe I shouldn''t have volunteer to protect you."

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she hit Ji Yuan at his shoulder which was as hard as steel.

    Ji Yuan grinned at her, "Howe your hits are getting softer and softer nowadays?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "So, do you want me to hit you below your waist?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "I guess not."

    But as he said that, he was pinching her butt shamelessly.

    Silently, he had resolved to protect Sisi and he did not want the same fate to befall her like her Sister Feifei.

    If only he was now pinching the butt of his Jiajia now and he wondered how she would react to his lecherous fingers?

    As they continued, the passage had expanded into arge cavern and the size ofrge hall that could amodate several thousands.

    This was not the most astonishing thing; in this cavern there were even an altar on the tform and even several hundred pieces of broken weapons at the sides.

    Ji Yuan was astonished as he pointed at the broken weapons that were at the sides, "This ce has been used by cultivators? Look at the broken weapons in this ce. They have been swept cleanly to a corner and it is all too intentional."

    Then he shed and jumped up to the altar and said, "Hmm, it seemed that this ce has not been used for some time. It is so dusty in this ce."

    Shui Xisi had also shed up with Ji Yuan and she was giggling, "Is that so? You know that there are some wind currents that are in this ce. So, it only takes one a day for this altar to be dusty. Or, do you expect for the profound beasts that roam this ce to clean this altar clean every day?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "Erm," he quickly said and protested. "You know that the MCs in the cultivation stories will never be wrong in their deductions, not even a bit? What if I insist that this altar has not been used for a long time?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly as she held his chin, "Rubbish! I am the MC of this cultivation story for I am the future immortal ruler of the Nine Heavens. You are just amoner."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Whatever. But I am stronger than you now."

    Shui Xisi ignored him as she inspected the altar with her divine sense, "Mm, this altar is made of a mixture of dense celestium stone and an immortal stone call the heavenium. But heavenium only exists in the Nine Heavens and hence it is also called the Nth stone. Even in the Nine Heavens, it is extremely rare and the throne seat of my mother consort is made of heavenium."

    "Is it?" Ji Yuan was delighted immediately as he quickly tried to move this altar with his profound strength so that he could transfer thisrge altar into his spatial pocket.

    But to his dismay, it weighed tons and he was unable to even move it.

    And he soon had an ugly look on his face.

    "What the heck? This is even heavier than a celestium stone?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "Of course! It is 10 000 times denser and therefore 10 000 times heavier than even the dragon celestium stone. This one requires dozens of high level cultivators to move it. Even if you are a 9th realm cultivator now, I''m afraid that you can''t move it."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "It''s no wonder why the Great Goddess Alice uses it for her butt to sit on it because she can''t move it."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She immediately kicked Ji Yuan with a sh of anger, "Why don''t you die, Ji Yuan?"

    But Ji Yuan was already prepared for it as he dodged out of the way as he was purposely provoking her.

    All of a sudden, his sharp ears had picked up some echoes and he whispered to Shui Xisi, "There are some people here. Let''s hide first."

    Shui Xisi was startled as she could not hear anything but she trusted Ji Yuan so she nodded.

    The two of them quickly returned to the passage where they hade from as they concealed their presences.

 Chapter 1243 The Desolate Venoms Sect

    <h4>Chapter 1243 The Deste Venoms Sect </h4>

    ?Together with Shui Xisi, Ji Yuan began to wait in the shadows of the passage way where they hade from.

    There were actually many passages to this gigantic cavern that could fit thousands of people.

    Belong long, they could see a group of some 30 cultivators had appeared and many of these cultivators had weird facial features.

    Ji Yuan was startled that they were actually the deste races simr to the ones that he had fought in the Demonic Divine Realm.

    Although they had the same origin as the deste demonic race that hade with the Great Demon God but they looked less human and had grotesque features simr to the deste draconic race that he had seen inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

    Ji Yuan was suddenly startled when he saw that there was a beautiful naked maiden that was being led by them and she had heavy chains that were attached to her.

    This maiden had runic marking all over her body and she looked like a listless zombie as she staggered step by step.

    It was obvious that she had been heavily sedated.

    Also, she looked human and was unlike the 30 cultivators that were leading her.

    Soon, they were cing her on top of the altar and there were excited looks from among the 30 deste cultivators.

    Ji Yuan whispered to Shui Xisi, "Don''t tell me that they are using her as a living cauldron and they are going to sacrifice her?"

    Shui Xisi nodded, "This seem to be the case to me."

    But she could not resist adding a sarcastic whisper to Ji Yuan, "No one has used that altar for a long time, huh? I am just curious with your poor deduction, how did you manage to even ovee some of the more difficult trials inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. Don''t tell me that you only use your beautiful face to ovee your trials? Well, these are men and you have run out of your luck now."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    A powerful build and grotesque looking cultivator with the most beautiful purple robe walked to the front of the altar that had the naked maiden chained to it, began to say solemnly to everyone. "My fellow dao cultivators, at longst, we have finally scored a great victory against the human cultivation sect the Ivy League Sect. And we have even captured their holy maiden. Today, she is going to be my living cauldron and I am going to use her virgin blood to increase my attainment. After that, she will be given to all of you to have fun with and be toyed with. But first, we have to give thanks to our Empress of our Deste Venoms Sect for granting us this gift."

    When he had said this, the tens of cultivators presented were all shouting and cheering loudly!

    Ji Yuan had taken this opportunity to step out of his hiding ce and he was frowning coldly, "Not so fast. Let her go and I shall let all of you go as well."

    The minute that Ji Yuan had appeared, Shui Xisi had also appeared behind him.

    The grotesque looking cultivator stared coldly at Ji Yuan and was offended by his intrusion, "There are still human vermin in this ce?! How dare you interrupt our ceremony. Do you know even know who I am? I am the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa, one of the top cultivators in the top 100 cultivators in the Deste Great Abyss¡­"

    Then he saw the extremely beautiful maiden that was with Ji Yuan and he was smiling wryly, "Save the human maiden that is next to this intruder for me. She will make a fine living cauldron for me."

    Immediately, two of the cultivators that were closest to Ji Yuan had already shed to attack him.

    When they disyed their profound aura, Ji Yuan was shocked that they wereparable to a saint cultivator.

    In fact, when he saw that everyone in this cavern had disyed a profound auraparable to the saint level, he was cursing himself for tumbling into a nest of the leadership of this Deste Venoms Sect.

    He quickly raised his ck true divine sword and chopped off the heads of the two cultivators that were shing toward him to disy their profound arts.

    But before they could even disy their profound arts, they were killed like pieces of tofu by Ji Yuan.

    This shocked the many deste demonic cultivators and many of them quickly disyed their spiritual or divine weapons as they did not want to fight Ji Yuan with their bare hands.

    The Demonic Great Saint On-Wa gasped, "He has a true divinity sword!!! Everyone be careful and get into formations! We will wear him down with our wolfpack tactics!"

    Immediately the opposing cultivators were all attacking Ji Yuan in an orderly manner.

    However Ji Yuan was not cowered by their orderly formation and he had immediately disyed his 9th realm profound aura and his sword spirit as he sliced through their orderly formations, killing many of the opposing cultivators.

    This shocked many of the deste demonic cultivators as they gasped at Ji Yuan''s profound aura, "9th¡­ realm¡­ how is it possible¡­ is he a deste immortal?"

    The Demonic Great Saint On-Wa stammered, "Wait! We are allies of the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Pce¡­ we are from the Deste Venoms Sect¡­"

    He did not manage to finish speaking because Ji Yuan had suddenly unleashed his 9 divine flying swords in all directions as he thought that he was killing too slow.

    This resulted in two of Ji Yuan''s divine flying swords piercing through to him even though he had tried to raise his divine sword to block against his attacks.

    He did manage to block off one of the flying divine swords though but the attempt to do so had thrown him off bnce and he got pieced by two of the flying swords.

    As a great saint, he had supreme regeneration ability and moreover he was from a deste race that specialized in regeneration and healing.

    Therefore, he was not quite dead when Ji Yuan''s two flying swords had run through him.

    By now, all the deste demonic cultivators were all wounded or killed by Ji Yuan.

    Seeing that he now had the upper hand, he grabbed one of his flying divine swords which was a saintly divine sword as he disyed his grand cross profound sword art, killing everyone in a brilliant white re of profound energies except for the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa.

    The reason why he did not want to kill the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa just yet was not because he was being merciful but because he did not want to hurt the maiden that was lying on the altar.

    The Demonic Great Saint On-Wa was not foolish to stay behind, especially so when he saw that so many of the elders and chieftains of his Deste Venoms Sect were all killed by Ji Yuan without any resistance.

    All the profound arts that they had thrown against Ji Yuan was dissipated by a swing from Ji Yuan''s ck divine sword.

    The power disparity them and Ji Yuan were too simply too huge a disparity!

    The Demonic Great Saint On-Wa quickly disyed his shadow form profound art as he turned around to flee into one of the numerous passages that were in this cavern.

    However, Ji Yuan had sent his 9 flying divine swords against him and quickly sliced him to pieces.

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly when she saw that Ji Yuan had killed all the deste demonic cultivators in this ce, "This is too easy for you. Aren''t you a badass? Bullying them as a 9th realm cultivator?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I had overestimated them. They are weaker than I had thought. But I didn''t think that they can''t even handle more than 3 strokes from me."

    What Ji Yuan said was the true; a saint cultivator how matter how weak won''t be this weak.

    Shui Xisi was forced to admit, "They are probably at the lower tier of their cultivation realm except for that leader of theirs. But he is merely an average cultivator. They probably spent most of their times in their dark schemes than in an actualbat. But then, even if they don''t, they won''t be able to fight you. So you are still bullying them."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "Let''s go and check on that maiden. Maybe she can be our guide in this ce."

 Chapter 1244 Holy Maiden Ling Shan

    <h4>Chapter 1244 Holy Maiden Ling Shan </h4>

    ?The naked maiden was still unconscious when Ji Yuan had shed to the altar to inspect her.

    Then he quickly said, "This is too sinful. Luckily, I have some maiden clothing with me that I''ve purchased when I was in the Spirit Divine Realm."

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes as she took out her spare robe and put it over the naked maiden, "Save your flimsy maiden clothing for yourself."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Actually I want to give you one¡­"

    He showed the flimsy clothing to Shui Xisi as heughed heartily, "I hope that you will like it. It looks nice on Tang Manni, Xu Yifei and Little Jie''Er. I''m sure that it will look nice on you as well."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She murmured a soft curse but she took it nevertheless.

    Ji Yuan smiled when he saw that she had taken it.

    Then he said to her, "Don''t tell her that I had seen her body when she wakes up. Hahaha¡­ Luckily you are here or this will be too awkward to me."

    Shui Xisi weakly said, "I am beginning to understand why you always have some peach blossoms luck wherever you go."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Well, I can''t help it."

    Shui Xisi quickly dressed up the unconscious maiden before she popped a profound pill into her mouth.

    As soon as the unconscious maiden was fed the profound pill, she began to stir and began to open her eyes.

    She gasped softly when she saw Shui Xisi and immediately tearfully hugged her, "Heroine, thank you for saving me¡­"

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: I should be the one that she ought to hug. After all, I am the one that saved her from these evil cultivators here¡­

    Shui Xisi asked her, "Maiden, why are you here?"

    Then she pointed at the dead corpses around her, "You are captured by them?"

    The maiden answered tearfully, "I am the Holy Maiden of the Ivy League Sect. You may call me Ling Shan. I was captured by them during a battle and my cultivation strength is sealed by them."

    Shui Xisi said tenderly to her, "Let me check your meridians for you."

    After a while, she smiled wryly. "This isn''t a problem."

    Then she had hit several parts of her acupoints and Ling Shan gasped as her cultivation strength had returned.

    This was evident when her eyes had turned golden at the same time.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Mm, you are a saintess?"

    Ling Shan nodded tearfully, "I am at the 3rd level of the sacred saint realm. And may I know the name of my savior and your cultivation realm?"

    Shui Xisi smiled, "I am Shui Xisi and I am at the 10th level of the sacred saint realm."

    Ling Shan gasped softly, "You are a peaked great saintess¡­

    She quickly said, "I didn''t know that there is a human cultivation sect with such a lofty realm. May I know what is the name of your cultivation sect?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "I didn''te from around here. I have actuallye from above the deste mists. And I didn''t know that there are celestials in this ce."

    "Celestials?" Ling Shan asked with a weird look.

    Shui Xisi nodded, "You are naturally a celestial since our world is the Celestial Realm. You can say that we are humans just like you."

    Ji Yuan asked, "Howe there are human cultivators in this ce? Isn''t this ce forbidden to the celestials? We can''t cultivate in this ce as the deste auras here are too dense."

    Ling Shan gasped when she saw Ji Yuan, "Who is this man?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "Don''t mind him. He is my loyal servant."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "Indeed. I am her loyal servant."

    Although there was an ugly look on him when Shui Xisi had introduced him as her loyal servant but on hindsight, he thought that he ought to conceal his cultivation strength as this ce was alien to them.

    Ling Shan asked Shui Xisi, "You havee from high above the deste mists? Is it even possible for anyone toe down from there? I mean, we had many who had tried to find a way up above the deste mists but we are never sessful¡­"

    Ji Yuanughed as he interrupted her, "Can''t you find a flying mount and fly all the way up?"

    Ling Shan shook her head, "Outworlder, you may not know this but there are actually threeyers of deste mists above us. The secondyer of deste mists is called the dead zone and the dark lightning bolts rage nonstop in thisyer. Only immortals are able to descend through thisyer and they needed to be powerful immortals such as the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "The Great Demon God. You have heard of him too? He has been here? Earlier we have heard that the Deste Venoms Sect is an ally of the Great Demon God?"

    Ling Shan nodded slowly, "Many hundreds of years ago, the Great Demon God had indeed visited this part and many of the cultivation sects in this region has sworn fealty to him. This included my Ivy League Sect. We just didn''t have the strength to contest with an immortal god such as the Great Demon God."

    Ji Yuan nodded and asked again, "Why is he here? To gain allies?"

    Ling Shan shook her head, "He is looking for the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms¡­"

    Ji Yuan was excited when he had heard her, "Hahaha¡­ we are also looking for the way into the Nine Abyss Realms as well. Can you guide us to that ce?"

    Ling Shan looked a little terrified, "The Nine Abyss Realms is the forbidden cultivation holynd of the entire underworld. You will only be courting your own death if you want to go there."

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "You don''t have to worry for us. Hahaha. All you need to do is to guide us there."

    Ling Shan appeared to be at a loss as she said, "No one actually knows how to get there."

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "What about the Great Demon God?"

    Ling Shan exined, "At that time the Great Demon God and his immortals has massacred half of the top cultivation experts in this region and that was why they were forced to be his allies. That event has given the human cultivation sects a chance to fight back against the deste cultivation sects after the Great Demon God was gone. I don''t think the Great Demon God has ever found the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms."

    As Ji Yuan listened, he began to look at Shui Xisi who was also looking at a loss too.

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Nevertheless, let''s send this maiden back to her cultivation sect first."

    <h4>Chapter 1245 The Demoness Empress An Xuanji (1) </h4>

    ?As they exited the cave, Shui Xisi asked Ling Shan. "So, where is your cultivation sect? We can send you back first."

    Ling Shan hesitated for a while before answering, "It is on another ind that is northeast of here. That ind is called the Mt. Vulcan and there are 10 human cultivation sects in the mountains of this ind. However, we don''t have any profound ships to fly back. We need to find a flying deste beast and to tame it first. But this will be a problem unless you have a spirit contract profound treasure to tame it. Even then, how are you going to tame it in the first ce?"

    Shui Xisi giggled softly as she pointed at Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry, my servant Ji Yuan here can carry you across this ind to your own."

    Ling Shan gasped softly, "Are you sure? It is at least 1000 miles away from here and even if you are a great saint, you can''t hover that long without exhausting all your profound strength. Also, aren''t you celestial cultivators from above? The deste aura here is denser than the spiritual aura above. You can fly in here?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he interrupted into their conversations, "Leave it to me! I can carry you alright. Hahaha¡­"

    He is a 9th realm cultivator so flying isn''t an issue for him.

    As for Shui Xisi, she has the use of her true divine sword the Astronomic Eulogy Divine Sword to aid her to fly without the need to expend a lot of her profound strength.

    Ji Yuan grinned, "We ought to leave this ce immediately first as this ce is hostile to human cultivators like us."

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Who is the one that wants toe to this ind in the first ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he grabbed and lifted Ling Shan into his arms, "Let''s go!"

    And he had taken from the ground.

    Shui Xisi was soon behind him.

    Ling Shan was astonished when she was lifted into the air by Ji Yuan, "I am a saintess but I can''t see your cultivation realm. What is your cultivation realm?"

    Ji Yuanughed with a yful look before he answered, "I am a peaked great saint and I am also a sword saint. I practice a powerful internal profound art that can enable me to fly and I call it the flying sword heaven art."

    Shui Xisi almost choked when she had heard Ji Yuan but she had decided to keep quiet about it. She could not believe that Ji Yuan was making up stories that he was a powerful internal profound art expert when he was secretly disying his powerful 9th realm profound aura.

    As an upper 9th realm cultivator, he was naturally able to hide his cultivation realm from the other cultivators as long as he did not disy his profound aura to the fullest.

    All of a sudden, there were 7 blinks of light that had appeared in the horizon that startled their group.

    It was the sight of 7 deste cultivators that had suddenly appeared; all 7 of them had a great saint and saintess cultivation realm and had immensely powerful auras.

    4 of them had wings and were from an unknown deste race that Ji Yuan did not recognize and the other three looked human except for their red crimson eyes and pointed ears.

    The maiden in the middle was an extraordinary beautiful maiden that looked like an enchanting fairy and she had wless symmetrical delicate features; her lustrous ck flowing hair cascades down like waves and her crimson eyes glimmered like a pair of precious rubies.

    Her profound aura formed the shape of a delicate and iridescent wings as she flew ahead of the others with an enchanting allure that exuded an otherworldly grace and an enchanting elegance.

    For a moment, Ji Yuan had thought that she was surreal and was even human.

    Before Ji Yuan could ask Ling Shan who the maiden that was shing ahead was, she had told Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi. "We are in trouble now. She is the Demoness Empress An Xuanji of the Deste Venoms Sect. The six others are her elders and they are all peak great saints and great saintess."

    Ji Yuan was delighted to see such a beautiful maiden appearing before him even though she looked quite angry as she sped ahead of the others to confront their group.

    He quickly handed Ling Shan to Shui Xisi as he grinned, "Leave this enemy to me. Demoness Empress or not, I am going to humiliate her this very day."

    Shui Xisi sarcastically returned a reply to him, "You really sound like a bad guy."

    Ji Yuanughed softly before he pretended to say, "What the heck? Howe all the deste cultivators can fly in this ce?!

    Shui Xisi smiled, "That is because the Celestial Realm is too high above and hence the gravity is exerting a heavy pull on most of the celestial cultivators. That is why most 7th realm celestial cultivators are unable to fly except for the spirit cultivators. Even then, they must expend a great deal of their profound aura to do so."

    Ji Yuan immediately protested, "That isn''t logical at all. The further up we are, the less gravity. You know that we are weightless in space?"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes sheepishly before she returned Ji Yuan a weak reply, "I don''t want to argue with an uneducated cultivator like you. Please go and confront that Demoness Empress that is fast approaching us."

    Ling Shan said to Ji Yuan, "Be careful. She is one of the top 10 deste cultivators in the underworld and she is almost an immortal now."

    Ji Yuan grinned as he sped ahead of Shui Xisi and Ling Shan to confront the Demoness Empress of the Deste Venoms Sect.

    Shui Xisi cursed Ji Yuan silently when she saw his excited looks: Stupid Ji Yuan. Why are you always asking me some stupid questions when you are such a bad cultivator at cultivating?

    Actually, Ji Yuan was not concerned about his question or the answer as he was just babbling a random question.

    He was already intrigued by the extraordinary beauty that was speeding at him with an angry look.

    The profound voice of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji was soon echoing at him, "Human cultivators! Stop where you are! How dare you kill the elders of my Deste Venom Sect?"

    Ji Yuan said aloud, "Indeed I am the one that have killed the elders of your Deste Venom Sect."

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled by Ji Yuan''s words that she had frozen in mid-air; she had not expected for him to own up so readily.

 Chapter 1246 The Demoness Empress An Xuanji (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1246 The Demoness Empress An Xuanji (2) </h4>

    ?The Demoness Empress An Xuanji coldly said to Ji Yuan, "How audacious you are! Do you know who I am? I am the Demoness Empress of the Deste Venom Sect and who you are? What is the name of your cultivation sect?"

    Ji Yuan ginned before he chuckled, "I am the Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan and I am from the Nameless Cultivation Sect."

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled by Ji Yuan''s reply as she hummed, "Nameless Sword Saint? But you have just dered your name. Isn''t Ji Yuan your name? And why are you called a Nameless Sword Saint then? Also, I have never heard of your Nameless Cultivation Sect before. Nevertheless, after you are dead, you shall truly be nameless."

    Shui Xisi who was still flying far behind Ji Yuan and weighed down by Ling Shan was smiling bitterly to herself when she had heard the profound exchanges between Ji Yuan and the Demoness Empress An Xuanji: Stupid Ji Yuan. You called yourself the Nameless Sword Saint but you still dere your name nevertheless. You just want the whole world to know your name¡­

    The six cultivators that were flying behind the Demoness Empress An Xuanji were also amused by Ji Yuan but they were also disying an ugly look as Ji Yuan had been too insolent toward their Demoness Empress.

    There was a quiet moment between them as they quietly appraised each other.

    Ji Yuan was thinking: She is really a beautiful maiden. What a pity that I have to waste her body and scatters her remains in this wilderness¡­

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was thinking: I can''t read his cultivation realm? Did he conceal his cultivation realm with a mystic profound art or a profound treasure? But what a pity to waste him in this wilderness. He has such a beautiful and noble look even though he is a human cultivator¡­

    At this moment, her cultivators were already approaching within five miles of her but she had raised her hand to halt them. "Stay where you are. I can handle him alone."

    She looked really confident of her ability to handle the situation and there was a firm authority in her voice.

    The six cultivators that were behind her immediately halted in mid-air as they awaited the further instructions of their Demoness Empress.

    Shui Xisi had also halted five miles behind Ji Yuan and she was watching them with some amusement.

    Ling Shan asked her anxiously, "Will your servant Ji Yuan be alright? Do we want to give him a helping hand?"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "Don''t worry. I haven''t met anyone that can kill him yet hence he is still alive to this day. Maybe this Demoness Empress will be the first."

    Ling Shan: ???

    She had no idea that Shui Xisi was being cynical and was sarcastic; of course, Ji Yuan had not died yet or else he won''t be here. But so did all of them here.

    Ling Shan was thinking: If the Demoness Empress would be able to kill your servant then, then why don''t you give him a helping hand then? You are wishing him to die instead?

    Then she was gasped in secret as she had suddenly realized what Shui Xisi was up to: She must be using her servant to gauge the strength of the Demoness Empress so that she can observe a potential weakness to exploit. This may be a brutal thing but it is all toomon in the cultivation world. It seems that even this Great Saintess Shui Xisi here isn''t a match for the Demoness Empress¡­

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji asked Ji Yuan, "Let me ask you again. Why did you kill my elders? Did we provoke you or anything?"

    Ji Yuan shook his head as he said, "Well, you did capture the Holy Maiden of the Ivy League Sect and you are going to make her into a living cauldron. I wouldn''t stand by while I watch your elders doing that, am I right?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji frowned silently, "I didn''t give such orders. Why are you framing my elders?"

    Ji Yuan said angrily, "If you have the guts to do it, why don''t you admit it?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji hummed coldly, "You can eat the wrong food but you cannot say the wrong words!"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Hey! Isn''t this my favorite quote?!

    Even Xiang Li was giggling when she had heard her: Big Brother, she is using your favorite quotes! Teach her a lesson by stripping her and taking her as your harem.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan frowned back: Xiang Li, you are getting too egoistic nowadays. Where did you learn all these from? Stop distracting me. I am having a fight here.

    Xiang Li giggled softly: My Big Brother will lose?

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered: I will if you continue to distract me like this.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji turned in the direction of Ling Shan and asked, "Is it true that my elders intend to turn you into their living cauldron?"

    Ling Shan hummed coldly, "It is exactly like what the Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan had just said. If it isn''t for him, I would have been turned into a living cauldron by now and won''t be able to escape from your demonic clutches."

    Ji Yuan continued as he said to the Demoness Empress, "Heh! There is no need for further proof now, am I right?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji had raised her divine sword to point at Ji Yuan, "Even then, so what? Do you have any idea how vicious this Holy Maiden Ling Shan is? She has killed my father!"

    Ling Shan quickly protested, "Your father tried to vite me! I am only defending myself!"

    Ji Yuan hummed coldly, "Your father deserves to die formitting such a bestial act!"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was clearly offended by Ji Yuan as she said coldly, "No one sullens the good name of my venerable father and will be expecting to live. Draw your sword, you stupid Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan. I don''t kill an unarmed cultivator."

    Ji Yuan was clearly provoked as he disyed his ck true divinity sword as well as his nine flying swords to hover around him, "No one calls me stupid and ever lives! At least they are still not alive to this very day!"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes sheepishly when she had heard Ji Yuan; quite a number of Ji Yuan''s maidens had called him stupid Ji Yuan on a number of asions and in some instances, it was even straight into his face. But they had all lived. Actually, she had called him stupid Ji Yuan the most number of times and she has also lived to this day.

 Chapter 1247 Ji Yuan vs. the Demoness Empress (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1247 Ji Yuan vs. the Demoness Empress (1) </h4>

    ?

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled when she saw that Ji Yuan had disyed a true divinity sword, "This is an immortal sword?!"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "So, you now afraid and is regretting now? If you are willing to be humbled before me then I can consider letting you off."

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji hummed coldly at Ji Yuan''s arrogancy, "It seems that you have no idea who I am yet."

    Ji Yuan grinned shamelessly, "I know who you are. You are a most beautiful maiden."

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled by Ji Yuan''s interruption and there was flushes on her cheeks.

    She replied coldly after a brief hesitation, "Shameless human cultivator! Consider your life and your immortal sword forfeited then."

    All of a sudden, she had raised her hands and three circr red profound circles had appeared on her left, top and right side.

    And from these three red circles, a rednce that was condensed by her profound energies had emerged from it.

    She was now preparing her divine profound art to strike at Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was startled as he could feel that this Demoness Empress An Xuanji was indeed stronger than most of the deste cultivators that he had been fighting against.

    He quickly disyed his Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon in her direction as a powerful white light that wavered like a serpent shed against him.

    However as Ji Yuan did not want to reveal his true cultivation realm in the open, he had kept his cultivation realm to the 7th realm cultivation strength.

    It was because he had lied to Ling Shan about this cultivation realm and moreover, this was an open space. Should he reveal his true cultivation strength, the six cultivators that were hovering and watching from afar may even have time to send a transmission to the others or even flee from the scene.

    Ji Yuan''s Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon quickly destroyed one of the red profound spears that had appeared but he was dismayed that it was quickly dissipated and unable to continue on its attacking path.

    As for the two other red profound spears, it flew toward Ji Yuan.

    As he evaded the first red spear, he was startled that it had suddenly exploded with a mighty profound explosion near him and he was flung aside in mid-air.

    As for the second red spear, it was homed against him.

    Ji Yuan quickly used his nine flying swords to interrupt it but the red spear shattered his 9 flying swords in all directions.

    It was only then did Ji Yuan realized that the third red spear was the main profound attack and it was three times more powerful than the first and second profound spear.

    But it was toote to realize as he quickly raised his ck true divinity sword to defend himself.

    A powerful crimson ring ball of red fireball exploded mightily when Ji Yuan was hovering and the surrounding for miles were also filled with the profound shockwaves of this mighty explosion!

    This mighty fireball was so powerful that it could instantly kill even a great saint.

    There was a pitiful look on the beautiful countenance of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji as she muttered, "You have forced me so don''t me me."

    And she had turned her attention to look at Shui Xisi and Ling Shan now.

    Ling Shan was startled, "Your servant Ji Yuan is dead now¡­"

    Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "Don''t worry, he won''t die so easily."

    The reason for her confidence was because she had witnessed Ji Yuan''s fight against the Great Demon God and she knew that he was much tougher than this.

    But to her startled horror, the ck shadow of a falling Ji Yuan to the ground that was enveloping by an inextinguishable crimson fireball shocked her.

    Ji Yuan was plummeting in a downward spiral and he had crashed with a powerful smoke of shattering debris into the hard ground below them.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji said quietly, "My Crimson Obliterating Fire Spears is a divine profound art. It isn''t something a mere great saint can hope to resist and this obliterating fire cannot be extinguished by mere profound strength alone."

    She was now looking at Shui Xisi, "Surrender the Holy Maiden Ling Shan now to me and I will be merciful to you¡­"

    All of a sudden, the burning Ji Yuan who had just crashed onto the ground was seen standing up again and he was seen yelling painfully as he released the profound force of his Golden Invincible Force to expel the burning fire to nothingness.

    Ji Yuan was startled that the Golden Invincible Force internal profound art would be so powerful as to dissipate the profound energies that were afflicting him and he was soon grinning upward, "This is nothing at all."

    He was actually unharmed when the crimson spear had struck him as he had mustered all his profound strength into defending himself.

    However, there was one problem though; he had used most of his profound aura to fly in mid-air and when he got struck, he had quickly withdrawn his profound aura into a profound defense to ward him against the profound attack of the Demoness Empress.

    Hence, this was the reason why he was seen plummeting in mid-air.

    This startled the Demoness Empress An Xuanji who could not believe that a cultivator would be able to receive her Crimson Obliterating Fire Spears and was unharmed.

    Then she remembered that this Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan had blocked her crimson spear had thest minute.

    Thinking about this, she had thought that this was merely a fluke.

    So, she exploded her profound aura and raised her profound strength to her zenith before she disyed six profound red circles, each with a red spear emerging from it.

    "This is the most powerful level of my Crimson Obliterating Fire Spears. Human, die!"

    Ji Yuan quickly disyed his ultra sword spirit and he was not slow to react; he disyed his Million Swords Field as he prepared to use his Harker of the Million Swords, causing hundreds of profound swords to appear all around him.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled when she saw the sword intentions and the sigil of Ji Yuan''s sword spirit on his forehead, "This is a Sword Domain?!"

 Chapter 1248 Ji Yuan vs. the Demoness Empress (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1248 Ji Yuan vs. the Demoness Empress (2) </h4>

    ?

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji did not have the time to ponder further as their profound arts began to sh against each other.

    Where she was hovering and the ground where Ji Yuan was standing, the empty space between them exploded with the red crimson profound energies of her Crimson Obliterating Fire Spears and the blue profound sword energies of Ji Yuan''s Harker of the Million Swords.

    When their profound energies had exploded and died down momentster, neither of them had gained an advantage over the other.

    Ji Yuan was astonished that the explosion of her red spear could cover such a wide area and could even dissipate dozens of his profound swords with a single explosion.

    Or rather, the explosions of her red spear had lingered and continued to dissipate his profound sword energies.

    He thought: She is truly a strong cultivator. She isn''t lying when she says that this is a divine profound art.

    But he had also quickly gauged her strength and know that he could easily win with his One Dividing Sword but in order to use this move, he had to increase his profound strength to that of a 8th realm cultivation at the very least.

    That would blow his cover for sure.

    Also, he did not want to kill someone that did notmit evil before him and he had only viewed this as a yful duel.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was astonished that even her most powerful divine art the Crimson Obliterating Fire Spears was unable to even touch this Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan and she knows now that her opponent was really strong.

    Just as she was still pondering over her next move, Ji Yuan had suddenly shed up to the heavens and chuckled. "Hahaha¡­ thank you for returning the hostage to us. Farewell!"

    Ji Yuan then shed to Shui Xisi and Ling Shan before he grabbed them to fly off in another direction.

    However, the Demoness Empress An Xuanji did not stop him and she was in fact looking a little relieved; it was because she was almost at her wits'' end on how to deal with this Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan and she was thinking if she ought to swallow the Dragonfest Blood Profound Pill to increase her cultivation strength further.

    When Ji Yuan had flown away, her six elders had quickly gathered to her side and asked her. "Your Demoness Empress, shall we pursue them?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji shook her head with a soft sigh, "Do you really think that the six of you are able to kill him? Don''t forget that even the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa had died in his hands."

    Her answer startled the six deste cultivators.

    The Demonic Great Saint On-Wa was actually an extremely powerful cultivator. Even if he could not defeat his opponent, he could always make his escape in many ways. After all, he had gone through countless number of battles in his life and was a veteran.

    However, they did not know that when Ji Yuan had killed the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa, he had disyed his cultivation strength to the 9th realm.

    In front of a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator like Ji Yuan, he was merely an ant.

    Elder Ma Qianhuo asked her with an angry look, "Are we going to let the Holy Maiden Ling Shan returns to her Ivy league Sect just like that? She killed thete Demon Emperor, your father!"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji clenched her fists tightly, "She is a merely concubine of my father and yet she dared to kill him. Of course, I won''t forget about this feud so easily."

    Then she turned to her six elders to saymandingly, "At least, we know where they will be going. Gather all the powerful cultivators of the Deste Underworld, we are going to raid the Ivy League Sect to avenge my father."

    "Elder Ma Qianhuo, I am going into our holy sect''s forbidden ground to retrieve the Million Disapora Lotus." She then turned to Elder Ma Qianhuo to say solemnly.

    Elder Ma Qianhuo was shocked, "This¡­ are you sure? This is a half-step true divinity profound treasure and it can even kill a 9th realm immortal. Are you sure that you want to use this? What if the Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms is toe again? This is our only weapon against the Nine Abyss Realms!"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji sighed softly, "I have no other choice. Have you ever seen such a strong cultivator as this Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan before? Did you see how wellpose the maiden that was behind him was? They are both not ordinary cultivators. I think, they are¡­"

    "You mean that they are actually from the Nine Abyss Realms?" Elder Ma Qianhuo could not resist an interruption as he gasped out.

    Even the other 5 elders were looking shock.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji slowly nodded, "The life tokens of our 30 elders, including the Demonic Great Saint On-

    Wa were all destroyed at almost the same time. This showed the fact that their killer must be a formidable cultivator. If the killer isn''t from the Nine Abyss Realms, then I am really surprised."

    Elder Ma Qianhuo slowly nodded, "Even though I don''t like this Demonic Great Saint On-Wa that much since he is a vile person even by our standards but I am still surprised by his demise. This may not be a bad news for us as you are now able to sway a stronger position in the Deste Venom Sect. Previously the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa and the elders that were supporting him had refused to give you permission to retrieve the Million Disapora Lotus to fight the messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms. Now it seems that no one will be able to oppose you for now."

    Elder Fa Lungong said all of a sudden, "But if he is really from the Nine Abyss Realms, do you think that it is wise for us to gather the Deste Alliance to kill him? Won''t we be courting our own deaths?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji was startled as she did not think about this part but she quickly said, "Well, he didn''t exactly say that he is from the Nine Abyss Realms, right? Also, I can''t allow myte father''s death to go unavenged. Moreover, I will have the Million Disapora Lotus with me so why should I fear him?"

    Then she was smiling, "Also, if I can kill him with the Million Diaspora Lotus, I can also obtain his true divinity sword for myself. An immortal weapon will be of great help to my future cultivation and this is what I will need."

    Actually as she said this, there was a secret wish to see this Nameless Sword Saint Ji Yuan again; she did not want to tell it to her elders as there was something that was with this Ji Yuan that had caused her heart to pound when she saw him for the first time. She had to admit that he was really the most beautiful man that she had ever seen.

 Chapter 1249 Mt. Vulcan Island

    <h4>Chapter 1249 Mt. Vulcan Ind </h4>

    1249 Mt. Vulcan Ind

    After flying for 20 hours, Ji Yuan spotted arge ind in the ocean ofva.

    Ling Shan immediately smiled as she said to Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi, "This ind is where my Ivy League Sect is. The name of this ind is called the Mt. Vulcan Ind. We should be safe now."

    As soon as they were near the ind, six human cultivators riding a flying mount were seen flying to interrupted them.

    One of them was even shouting angrily, "Our ind is off limits to all strangers!"

    But as soon as he saw that the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was with Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi, he was so startled that he began to stammer. "Elder You Kuang pays my respect to the Holy Maiden Ling Shan!"

    The other 5 cultivators were also quickly paying their homage in panic.

    Ling Shan immediately smiled, "Great Saintess Shui Xisi and her servant Ji Yuan are both my guests. Because of them, I am freed from the Demoness Empress An Xuanji now."

    Elder You Kuang bowed his head low as he said, "Your Holy Maiden, it isn''t safe for you to return now. Your sister has be the new Holy Maiden of our Ivy League Sect now."

    Ling Shan angrily said, "What? She has dared to seize my position! Now that I''ve returned, she can forget about being the Holy Maiden. Or is it because you have switched your loyalty to her instead?"

    Elder You Kuang panicky said, "I really dare not. In fact, most of us awaits your return. But your sister is appointed by the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and she may not take too kindly to it."

    Ling Shan said coldly, "Well, is she stronger than her father the Demon Emperor? I had killed the Demon Emperor on my own. It is time for the human cultivators to stand up against the deste cultivators that try to lord their might over us."

    Elder You Kuang stammered, "Yes, yes."

    Ling Shan smiled to Shui Xisi to say, "Don''t worry. Now that I''ve returned, I will be in the leadership position again. I can handle this on my own."

    Shui Xisi smiled, "Well, if you can''t handle it then I can lend you my servant Ji Yuan to help you. He is pretty strong as you can see."

    Ling Shan then turned to Ji Yuan to smile at him, "Thank you in advance."

    Then she had turned to say to Elder You Kuang, "Take me to the pce now."

    Immediately Elder You Kuang and his group began to turn around to lead Ji Yuan, Shui Xisi and Ling Shan to the big ind.

    There were many vegetations and mountain peaks on this big ind.

    Soon, Ji Yuan was able to see a big pce that was located on one of the peaks of this big ind.

    Elder You Kuang was joined by more than a dozen flying mounts and they were all astonished to see that their Holy Maiden Ling Shan had returned.

    Ling Shan turned to smile at Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan, "May I suggest that you wait here in that pavilion for me? Don''t worry. I can handle this all by myself. All these elders are my loyal followers."

    She had pointed at a pavilion at a mountain peak.

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You really don''t need my help to remove your sister from the leadership position? This may not be wise, am I right? After all, you have so few cultivators with you while your sister may have the entire cultivation sect under hermand."

    Ling Shan smiled wryly, "My sister is only a 8 year old little maiden. There is nothing to worry from her."

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was astonished. "Your holy maiden is merely an 8 year old little girl?"

    Ling Shan chuckled softly, "That''s right. She is merely a puppet ruler of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji to control my Ivy League Sect. Please wait in that pavilion while I settle the nasty aspects of my cultivation sect''s affairs."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "Alright then. If you meet with any troubles, juste over here to look for us."

    Ling Shan smiled, "I will."

    Then she turned to say to Shui Xisi, "Farewell for the time being. I''ll be back very soon."

    Shui Xisi nodded as she answered, "Alright then. Please be careful."

    And with that, the Holy Maiden Ling Shan had mounted a flying mount and departed with many of her elders to the pce that could be seen ahead of them.

    Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi then flew to the pavilion to take a rest.

    They were actually quite relieved that they were able to take a rest now as they had been flying nonstop for the past 20 hours and were tired.

    Shui Xisi had in fact expended plenty of her profound strength and she was hoping to take a break soon.

    She muttered to Ji Yuan as soon as she hadnded, "I hate flying. This is so tiring."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Well, I am more tired than you as I have to use my profound strength to carry this Holy Maiden Ling Shan. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "You don''t look tired at all¡­"

    It was true that Ji Yuan did not look tired at all and he was still looking fresh, even though he had a fight with the Demoness Empress An Xuanji earlier.

    Another reason why she knows that Ji Yuan was not tired was because he hadughed, "Hahaha¡­"

    When he hadughed thrice, it means that he was lying.

    And when he wasughing twice, it was actually the truth.

    Shui Xisi had learnt this from Ling Feiyue and she was purposely keeping it a secret from Ji Yuan.

    In fact, all the maidens that know about this secret of Ji Yuan was purposely keeping this a secret.

    Shui Xisi turned around to look at her surroundings and saw that there was a cave not far away from the pavilion that they hadnded.

    "Not bad," she said. "This ce is quite scenic. I didn''t expect that the underworld below the Celestial Realm looks like this. Only bad part is that there is no sun here or blue skies here."

    Ji Yuan nodded.

    The heavens here are actually red in color when reflected by the red color of theva ocean. However, in many parts, it was shrouded in darkness or thick with deste mists.

    Ji Yuan said, "It seemed that there are many cultivation sects along this ocean ofva. This may be the only light source in this ce. However, it is also unlikely that we will be able to find any profound treasures in these ces too since it is often frequented by cultivators."

    Shui Xisi frowned at Ji Yuan, "Don''t tell me that you are still thinking of finding profound treasures in this ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Aren''t we here in this ce to find profound treasures?"

    Shui Xisi stared coldly at him, "We are not in a trial or a wondend, you know."

    Ji Yuan weakly protested, "Maybe they do have some spirit herbs here that aremon but rare in the Celestial Realm. We can buy cheap and sell high in the Celestial Realm."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

 Chapter 1250 Caught with Pants down

    <h4>Chapter 1250 Caught with Pants down </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi meditated at the pavilion to regain some of their profound strength from the many hours of flying.

    6 hours had quickly passed but there was no sight of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan or the other human cultivators.

    At the beginning, Ji Yuan could see some fires that had burst from the pce but it was now extinguished.

    Ji Yuan said to Shui Xisi who was quietly meditating, "Sisi, are they having a pce coup over there?"

    Shui Xisi muttered with her eyes closed, "Ji Yuan, are you are feeling bored now? I am pretty sure that you don''t really care about the pce coup."

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "Sisi, you really know me best. Indeed, I am a little bored. You know, if I am there to help, maybe this thing may be settled even faster."

    Shui Xisi continued to say with her eyes closed, "Maybe this is their internal affairs and that''s why this Holy Maiden Ling Shan did not want to trouble us. Moreover, she seems to be able to handle this all by herself."

    Ji Yuan went near to Shui Xisi and he was secretly looking down at her bosoms while saying, "Actually, do you really trust this Ling Shan?"

    Shui Xisi muttered, "Why not? She looks trustworthy."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Sisi, you are too young and too simple. She is highly suspicious!"

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Why do you say that? You know something? Sometimes, I can''t trust your deductions. You need proof to say that."

    Ji Yuan began to ponder, "Well¡­ I don''t have any proof. This is just my guts feeling¡­"

    Actually, he had wanted to tell her that it was based on Xiang Li''s guts feeling but he had decided to keep quiet about it.

    He was actually surprised that Xiang Li did not ask him to bang the Holy Maiden Ling Shan and instead, she had asked him to bring the Demoness Empress into his harem.

    He knows that Xiang Li is the Goddess Tear and she is drawn to the goodness of the others.

    However, it was weird that Xiang Li did notment anything about the Holy Maiden Ling Shan even when she had seen her naked. This was highly suspicious to him.

    But for the Demoness Empress, Xiang Li had actuallymented about her.

    Or maybe Xiang Li was sleeping when he first saw the Holy Maiden Ling Shan?

    This was also a possibility.

    He had totally forgotten to check on Xiang Li and Anyang when he first saw the naked Ling Shan as he got distracted by her nakedness.

    Ji Yuan muttered, "Actually Sisi¡­"

    Shui Xisi had suddenly opened her golden eyes as she interrupted him with a?wryly look, "You are like a buzzing bee that is in my ears¡­"

    All of a sudden, she was frowning. "What is your eyes looking at?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled as he looked straight into her eyes, "Nothing. Erm¡­ you are not meditating anymore? You have recovered your profound strength so fast? This is impossible. Did you take a profound pill or two to regain your profound strength? Why didn''t you give it to me?"

    Shui Xisi frowned, "You look so guilty. What are you trying to say to me?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "I feel that the winds here are a little big in the pavilion here. Why don''t we go inside that cave to take shelter or to have a look?"

    Shui Xisi rolled her golden eyes, "I know what you are trying to do now."

    Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "Erm, you know what I am thinking?"

    Shui Xisi sticked her tongue as she said to him, "You are such a lecherous cultivator. What if Ling Shan has returned all of a sudden?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "Don''t worry. With my current divine sense, no one can surprise me. Hahaha¡­"

    Then without waiting for Shui Xisi to reply him, Ji Yuan had suddenly lifted her and had carried her into the cave.

    The cave''s interior was dark and spacious but there were no other passages inside this cave. It was more like a shelter than a real cave.

    But that was good enough for Ji Yuan as he began to kiss Shui Xisi passionately and he was already putting his dirty hands to work on her body.

    Before long, they were both naked and were rolling together like two hunger and long lost lovers.

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Sisi, I miss you. We didn''t do it for such a long time already."

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "What are you talking about? We have been doing it almost daily all the time except for the time that you had broken your waist. Serve you right for breaking your waist and for being such a lecherous man."

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Erm, that is because I had an old injury after battling the Great Demon God. That''s all. Hahaha¡­"

    Then he quickly said, "Sisi, I need your help on something."

    Shui Xisi: ???

    "What help?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "We can''t let Qingqing knows that we are together. What if she knows about this? She will be heartbroken for sure. Teach me how to settle this."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "Who says I am with you?"

    Ji Yuanughed as he moved his dirty fingers below her waist, "Of course you are."

    Shui Xisi was giggling too, "Well, no one will ever know that we are together. I am very good in covering my tracks so she won''t ever know about this."

    Ji Yuan nodded as heughed heartily, "Well, I am very good in covering my tracks with you too. No one will know about our secret affair. Haha¡­"

    All of a sudden, a bright sh of light had appeared next to them and the shadowy forms of four maidens had appeared.

    This stunned Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi as these maidens were the Goddess Destiny, Xu Yifei, Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue.

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "Look what we have here? Did we meet with a lucky fortuitous encounter or what?"

    Ji Yuan was stunned to see them appearing right in front of him as he was literally caught with his pants down.

    Shui Xisi quickly said, "This isn''t what you are thinking. Ji Yuan vites me¡­ lucky you have all appeared just in a nick of time¡­"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled, "Like real¡­"

    The Goddess Destiny frowned, "Did we just interrupt your good moments?"

    Xu Yifei was flushing shyly as she looked at Ji Yuan''s naked body¡­

 Chapter 1251 Ji Yuanâ€™s Awkward Moments

    <h4>Chapter 1251 Ji Yuan''s Awkward Moments </h4>

    ?By now Ji Yuan had already put on his robe and pants.

    He continued to protest weakly, "This isn''t what you think it is."

    Shu Xisi was also protesting shamelessly, "This is clearly a misunderstanding."

    Ling Feiyue rolled her golden eyes as she said with an amused look, "You know. This isn''t the first time that I''ve caught the two of you together."

    Ji Yuan said righteously, "This isn''t the point. Why are the four of you in this ce?"

    The Goddess Destiny pointed at the skull ring that Ji Yuan was wearing and said, "I''ve tracked you down as you are wearing the skull ring that I''ve given you."

    Then she turned to smile at Xu Yifei, "And of course, it is with a little help from the Transference Circle that Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei is able to use."

    Ji Yuan turned to Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue, "And why are the two of you also here?"

    Xue Qianxue chuckled softly, "Why? You do not seem to wee the two of us?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "Of course not! I am only d that I havepany. It is just that I am erm, a little curious."

    Xue Qianxue answered yfully, "We are with the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei when the Goddess Destiny hade. Although the Goddess Destiny had asked to talk with Xu Yifei privately but I can almost guess the reason why."

    It was well known that Xu Yifei had the ability to move people and ever since the Goddess Destiny had heard from the Great God Pangu that Ji Yuan was on a secret mission to the Nine Abyss Realms, she had been looking quite listless.

    Then Xue Qianxue had immediately asked the Goddess Destiny if she intends to look for Ji Yuan with the help of the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    The Goddess Destiny was surprised that Xue Qianxue was able to guess her intentions and she had revealed that it was exactly her ns to look for Ji Yuan.

    As Ling Feiyue was also with them and that Xu Yifei had said that she would try to teleport to Ji Yuan with the guidance of the Goddess Destiny, the 4 of them had formed a group in this experiment.

    And that was how they had teleported next to Ji Yuan and Shui Xisi.

    Ling Feiyue smiled to Ji Yuan with a yful tease, "So, what do you say of our timing? Is it perfect or not?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "It is all too perfect. Maybe if it is a little bitter, then it will be even more perfect¡­"

    Shui Xisi muttered weakly, "It is because someone here talks too much¡­"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately, "You know. I am a super cool MC. So, I don''t talk unless it is necessary and I will always make the right decision, be in the right ce and time¡­"

    "A MC will get cramps and broke his waist too?" Xue Qianxue chuckled lovingly.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered awkwardly, "I will rewrite that part in my biography."

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "Ji Yuan, why don''t you tell us what had happened to you while you are here and why you are in this cave?"

    Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly; he could tell them what had happened while he was here but he was unwilling to tell them why they were in this cave.

    Or should he tell them that he was chasing after a cute bunny in the cave?

    Actually Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue did not mind that Ji Yuan had an affair with Shui Xisi as it was quitemon for the high level cultivators to have a harem.

    Also, Shui Xisi has a high status in the Deste Celestial Fraternity and she has headed the Water Melody Pce, one of the three forbidden divine pces in the Deste Celestial Fraternity. Moreover she is the half-sister to Xia Jiajia/ Saintess Fang Zhenfei.

    And now they had learnt that she is also the daughter of the Great God Pangu.

    Her secret with Ji Yuan was not exactly a secret and she had been helping Ling Feiyue and Ji Yuan while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as well.

    It was just that she was too shameless not to admit that she was having an affair with Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan quickly exined his encounters to Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Xu Yifei and the Goddess Destiny.

    He told them how he had met the Holy Maiden Ling Shan and had rescued her from the evil cultivators that he had found.

    As this story hade from Ji Yuan, he began a grandfather story on how he had struggled against overwhelming odds to save the Holy Maiden Ling Shan to the four maidens.

    Although Shui Xisi was with him, she did not expose him as she was trying to stay out of the limelight.

    She thought that it was better for the four maidens to ask Ji Yuan about his encounters rather than question them why they were in this cave naked together.

    Ji Yuan then went on to tell them about his epic encounter with the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and how he got pursued by her and her cultivators.

    Most parts were just exaggerations though.

    Ji Yuan grinned at the very end, "I''ve almost died because of this. Then I found out that I was afflicted by a weird demonic fire and had gone berserk in this cave. Hence Sisi was only trying to help me to cool my body down using her jaded body. s, this was a great sacrifice on her part¡­"

    Shui Xisi almost kicked Ji Yuan when she had heard him.

    All 4 of the maidens were also looking quite awkwardly, mainly because they did not know that Ji Yuan had gone through so many things while he was here and also mainly because they did not know which part of the story was real.

    As Ji Yuan recounted his epic story, he was actually looking at the Goddess Destiny all this time and she was also looking shyly at him.

    It was because Ji Yuan had remembered that he was actually looking around for her until he had encountered the Great God Pangu.

    He knows her heart for him¡­

    However, he got distracted with looking for Shui Xisi halfway as he thought that the Great Immortal Rohan was trying to green him.

    But now, he had found both Shui Xisi and the Goddess Destiny again.

    Moreover, he also had Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue with him as well.

    Ji Yuanughed jovially as he said to them, "Well, this is my story so far."

    Then he smiled at the Goddess Destiny, "Let''s pretend to keep our cultivation at the peak of the 7th realm lest we rmed the cultivators in this ce. You are my secret weapon in this ce. Hahaha¡­"

    The Goddess Destiny smiled, "I have no objections with this."

    Shui Xisi could not resist saying to Ji Yuan, "Weird. Aren''t you the MC? Why are you depending on a maiden to be your secret weapon?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am the Main Character and she is the Lead Heroine."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan was grinning. "It seems that this Holy Maiden Ling Shan has finallye¡­"

    His divine sense had alerted him of her approaching presence.

    The Goddess Destiny had also sensed the arrivals of dozens of cultivators too.

 Chapter 1252 Visiting the Ivy League Sect

    <h4>Chapter 1252 Visiting the Ivy League Sect </h4>

    ?It was indeed the Holy Maiden Ling Shan that had arrived with dozens of her cultivators.

    As a matter of fact, she had arrived with a hundred of her cultivators.

    When she saw Ji Yuan was with 4 more maidens, she was astonished and moreover, they were all so beautiful as well.

    Even the cultivators that were with her were looking quite astonished.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shannded and asked Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan, "Who are they?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "They are all my friends and they havee from the Celestial Realm¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted him, "Servant Ji Yuan, know your ce. They are my friends."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He growled silently: I have forgotten that I am a servant of Shui Xisi but does she have to admonish in front of the others like this?

    Anyang reminded him: My lord, you forgot that you have to pretend to be Maiden Xisi''s servant. This is all part of your master n.

    Xiang Li giggled in agreement with Anyang: That''s right!

    Ji Yuanughed jovially: Hahaha. I know. But Sisi keeps shooting my foot and I feel that it isn''t fair that I can''t shoot her foot.

    Xiang Li giggled: You shoot between her legs and not her foot, remember?

    Ji Yuan thenughed jovially: Hohoho, that''s right!

    Then with a wicked grin, Ji Yuan started to grin at Shui Xisi exactly like a bad man and Shui Xisi was startled to see his evil grin.

    Shui Xisi wondered what Ji Yuan was thinking about right now.

    The Holy Maiden Li Shan smiled to Shui Xisi, "I have prepared 2 spare flying mounts for the two of you to fly back to my pce."

    Then she said to her cultivators, "Have 4 of you give up your flying mounts to these 4 maidens. They are all my distinguished guests."

    As everyone was walking outside the cave to their mounts, the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was secretly saying to Shui Xisi, "Great Saintess Xisi, this male servant of yours don''t look like a trustworthy person. Just now when I saw his evil grin, I was quite startled. I fear for your safety. You must be careful of him."

    Shui Xisi smiled and whispered back, "Don''t worry. I have himpletely in check. In front of me, he dares not y any tricks."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan slowly nodded before saying in secret, "The four maidens that are with you must also be careful. I feel that this Ji Yuan is up to no good¡­."

    As she warned Shui Xisi, her eyes were showing Shui Xisi that Ji Yuan was looking at the butts of these four maidens, especially Xu Yifei as he tried to look under their short skirts and robes as they mounted the flying beasts that were stationary at the tform near the pavilion.

    Shui Xisi saw that Ji Yuan was indeed looking quite lecherous at these four beautiful maidens.

    Except for the Goddess Destiny, the other three maidens were actually Ji Yuan''s maidens and two of them Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were actually Ji Yuan''s unofficial consorts too.

    Therefore, there was nothing wrong for him to look lecherously at his own maidens except for the Goddess Destiny.

    When she had thought that Ji Yuan was looking lecherously at the Goddess Destiny who may be able to kill him with a p, she began to curse him softly. "This Ji Yuan is courting his own death!"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan had heard her and she whispered back, "Please let me know if you need my help."

    Shui Xisi simply smiled weakly at her and did not say anything more; it is because she is Ji Yuan''s maiden too so how would she really try to fix Ji Yuan?

    While they were inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi were actually quite close. At one time of the time, together with the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu, they had even wanted to castrate Ji Yuan while they were at the Spirit Divine Realm.

    However, it was just their maidens'' talks and they were never serious about carrying out their threats against Ji Yuan.

    Simrly, she was now cursing Ji Yuan for the sake of cursing him and not because she was actually angry with him.

    It was also because Ji Yuan was a uncouth and shameless man with a thick face that Shui Xisi knows that he did not mind the offense of his maidens against him.

    Now, it may appear that Ji Yuan was always unhappy about being cursed and kicked by his maidens, as evidenced by his many protests in his heart to Xiang Li and Anyang. But this was actually not true. Heint mainly because this was his nature to talk to himself and actually in his heart, he was actually secretly happy that he was able to bring the maidens'' attention to himself.

    That was why he had dared to ogle at the maidens in such an open manner.

    The dozens of cultivators were all cursing Ji Yuan when they saw that he was lecherously looking at the four beautiful maidens with such an outrageous look.

    And they were all cursing him for being a lecherous cultivator.

    As for them, even though they had pretended not to look at the five beautiful maidens that were with them but they were actually secretly looking at him and were in awe of their beautiful appearances.

    So while all the male cultivators were trying to pretend to be a gentleman, Ji Yuan was not even though he had always tried very hard to maintain that he was a true gentleman of the sword.

    Very soon, they were all flying toward the pce.

    The pce was surrounded by white tall walls on top of a ck mountain peak.

    Ji Yuan saw that many of the cultivators below were still trying to put down the fires that were created earlier.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan smiled to them while in mid-air, "Don''t worry. I have the situationpletely under my control. I shall take you to your rooms in my inner pce for your rest and cultivation."

    Ji Yuan merely nodded and was pleased with this arrangement.

    But he did not know that he would soon be displeased with this arrangement and would be exploding in anger soon.

 Chapter 1253 The Dark Secret of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1253 The Dark Secret of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan (1) </h4>

    ?When Ji Yuan was shown to his quarters in the pce, he was naturally furious but he had to suppress his anger.

    It was because he was housed in a separate quarter from the other maidens.

    What was more, he was also housed in the outer pce instead of the inner pce.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan had told him, "You are a servant of the Great Saintess Shui Xisi. You may have a high cultivation realm but you are also a male too. So, it isn''t appropriate for you to be in the same ce as them."

    Just like that, he was housed in another pce and far away from the five maidens.

    Ji Yuan was hopping mad as hey on his bed.

    His quarter was actually quite splendid and there was even a cultivation chamber. But this was not the point.

    He would rather be in a cave with Shui Xisi than being alone in a room.

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan had a yful grin as he got up of his bed.

    He began to rub his chin as he chuckled, "My stealth ability is second to none. If I want to sneak into Shui Xisi''s room then no one will be able to stop me. Muhahaha¡­"

    Anyang warned him, "Be careful that you don''t enter into the wrong room and bang the wrong maiden."

    Ji Yuan frowned immediately, "You got to be kidding me. Will I be so blind?"

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, are you sure that you won''t be lost in this ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Lost? I will never be lost in any ces. Muhahaha¡­"

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    They had remembered that Ji Yuan was lost in the pce of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect not long ago.

    Xiang Li giggled, "Big Brother, why don''t wee out and be in yourpany? We can also show you our new spirit dresses too. Hehe¡­"

    Ji Yuan had already sneaked to the entrance as he replied nonchntly, "Not interested."

    Xiang Li, Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuan could see that there were 4 cultivators that were standing guard at the entrance to his room.

    They were not standing exactly quite near but in the courtyard of his abode.

    In order to sneak out, he had to get pass these 4 cultivators first without knowing.

    Ji Yuan began to grin to himself, "Luckily, my stealth ability is top notch."

    Anyang frowned, "This got nothing to do with your stealth ability. How do you get pass them? They are not some low level cultivators. With their divine sense, any movements will be sensed by them."

    Xiang Li was also pondering the same too.

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "You are all too young and too simple. Their divine sense is at the entrance. But I am not going that way at all."

    Then he had shed to the ceiling arcs and he was slowly inspecting the ceiling.

    Soon, he had found a moveable tile as he quietly shifted an opening in the roof.

    Ji Yuan was grinning to himself, "This is all too easy. Haha¡­"

    Anyang muttered weakly, "Next time, we know that they should ce him in an underground chamber or a multi-storey pagoda."

    Soon, Ji Yuan was on the roof top as he had concealed his presence.

    However, he still had to wait for an opportunity as the four cultivators were still in the vicinity.

    When he had sensed that the divine senses of the four cultivators were distracted and that a dark cloud had just passed by instead of a crimson dark cloud, he began to lurk along in the darkness before he shed happily in the rooftops.

    He soon saw the buildings of the inner pce.

    However he was soon dismayed that there was a formidable array that was in this ce.

    He muttered, "I wonder how I am able to break into this formation without rming the others?"

    Anyang giggled to him, "My lord, your cultivation sucks."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I am a sword cultivator and I don''t have time for the other cultivations¡­"

    "What ame excuse," Xiang Li giggled softly.

    Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he grinned, "Xiang Li and Anyang, can you help me?"

    Xiang Liughed softly, "With Anyang, we can neutralize any formation arrays except immortal arrays."

    Ji Yuan was delighted, "Hurry then. Hahaha¡­"

    Xiang Li chuckled, "It is done now."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "So fast?!"

    Anyang giggled with Xiang Li as she said to Ji Yuan, "This profound array isn''t that difficult. You don''t need to be a high level cultivator to neutralize it. You just need to be an expert in arrays to neutralize this."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Why is that I feel that you are pping me in the face instead? This isn''t an insult, am I right?"

    Anyang chuckled, "What do you think?"

    Ji Yuan cursed softly as he sneaked past the profound arrays and over the tall walls of the inner pce.

    There were dozens of pces within the inner pcepound and all of the pces were gigantic in size.

    Anyang asked Ji Yuan, "My lord. Are you lost?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Of course not. I know exactly where I should be going."

    Anyang giggled, "And it is?"

    JI Yuan pointed at the biggest pce, "Of course it is that pce. It is the biggest. Hahaha¡­"

    And with that, he had shed in the darkness.

    Actually, there was no day and night in this ce.

    However, the ocean ofva around the Mt. Vulcan Ind would grow dim every 12 hours and this caused the crimson clouds above to grow dark instead of crimson.

    Right now, it was the darker cycle and hence, it was their night.

    Before long, Ji Yuan was lurking in the dark halls of the biggest pce that he was checking upon.

    There were naturally many patrols around and even profound arrays.

    However, Ji Yuan was able to enter undetected.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, I feel that you are a thief. So much effort just to look for Maiden Shui Xisi?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Do you want to miss a show tonight then?"

    Xiang Li giggled softly, "Of course not!"

    Anyang muttered, "I think you are still sour about your halfway love making act with Maiden Shui Xisi earlier."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly to them.

    Then he said to them, "Help me to neutralize the profound defenses in this ce as well. This ce seems to be triple reinforced."

    He had entered a hallway where he saw that there were many cultivators patrolling around the hallways and thought of investigating it.

    Xiang Li shouted to him, "Big Brother, done!"

    Ji Yuanughed softly as he entered into the pce grounds, "These cultivators trust too much in their profound arrays. Luckily, I don''t cultivate any since these can be too easily breeched."

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    Anyang muttered, "This sounds like a bad excuse not to cultivate in profound arrays¡­"

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan was gasping softly; it was because he had suddenly caught sight of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan talking to 20 of her elders.

    He had recognized them as elders as he had seen them earlier, including Elder You Kuang who was the first elder that he had seen when he was within sight of the Mt. Vulcan Ind.

    He was thinking: Ops, wrong ce.

    Just as he was about to leave, he had noticed that the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was scantily dressed.

    And before he could leave, the Holy Maiden Ling Shan had suddenly slipped her robe off her shoulders and he saw that she was actually naked, wearing nothing inside her robe.

    This astonished Ji Yuan!

 Chapter 1254 The Dark Secret of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1254 The Dark Secret of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan (2) </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan watched as the Holy Maiden Ling Shan paraded herself naked in front of her 20 elders who were all grinning lecherous at her.

    He thought, "Is she being controlled by these 20 elders instead? No, I must save her from these vile men¡­"

    But just as he was about to sh to rescue her, the Holy Maiden Ling Shan began tough in a cold manner that caused his spine to shiver; it was because this was the most chillingughter that he had ever heard!

    Not even the Great Demon God wouldugh in such a cold and chilling manner¡­

    This caused Ji Yuan to pause in his tracks as he began to appraise the situation in front of him once again.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were saying to him: This Holy Maiden Ling Shanughed so evilly.

    Xiang Li said to Ji Yuan: Big Brother, I am scare of her¡­

    Even Aura and Little Yui were aroused from their slumber and asked Ji Yuan, Xiang Li and Anyang: Who isughing? Are we in any danger?

    Ji Yuan quickly calmed them down by saying: Go back to your rest. I can handle the situation all by myself.

    At this moment, the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was now saying to her elders. "Now that I''ve returned as your holy shrine maiden, I shall bring the Ivy League Sect to its former glory¡­"

    She continued with a wryly smile, "It is time for us to end the domination of the Deste Venoms Sect over us. With the Demon Emperor dead now and his bloodline veins in my hands now, I shall be the new Demoness Empress instead of An Xuanji¡­"

    When she had said this, many of the elders were cheering loudly and pping aloud.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan smirked coldly, "The newly arrived guests look quite strong. We can make use of them to fight against An Xuanji and her cronies."

    Elder You Kuang said with some hesitations, "Is that alright? The new Demoness Empress An Xuanji is quite strong and she is ranked as one of the top 10 cultivators in the Deste Underworld."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan smiled, "I had witnessed the fight between her and that servant Ji Yuan. This Ji Yuan is able to fight her on an equal footing. So he isn''t actually weak and he has a true divinity sword as well."

    Elder You Kuang and many of the elders were startled, "He can fight the Demoness Empress An Xuanji on an equal footing? He also has a true divinity sword?!"

    They were quite astonished to hear this.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan slowly nodded, "That Demoness Empress An Xuanji is too simple minded and too easily predictable. I have known her for a long time. She will definitely use the Million Diaspora Lotus to kill this Ji Yuan so as to seize his true divinity sword."

    Elder You Kuang said, "Then won''t she be unstoppable once she has the true divinity sword? We ought to stop her, am I right?"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan smiled, "We will definitely want to stop her. I can assure all of you that she won''t have the chance toy her hands on that Ji Yuan''s true divinity sword. Rather, it will be mine instead."

    As she said that, she had lifted her hand to clench her fists with a smirking smile.

    Ji Yuan frowned in his hiding ce: Well, you can dream on. But then, you do have a nice figure but unfortunately I am not interested in someone that is plotting to kill me.

    His thoughts had returned to the Demoness Empress An Xuanji as he rubbed his chin to ponder: I love simple minded maidens like this An Xuanji¡­ hehe. I wonder what this Million Disapora Lotus is? I will be killed by it? What a joke.

    Anyang warned him: There are many profound treasures that can kill even a 9th realm immortals and even true divinities. Don''t let your pride take the better of you.

    Ji Yuanughed to Anyang in his inner spiritual sea: Haha, I haven''t encountered anyone that can kill me yet.

    All of a sudden, his eyes were seeing something unbelievable.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan had walked down the stone steps while he was in his thoughts and all the 20 elders had already stripped themselves naked as well.

    And then the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was being fondled by the 20 elders as she slipped into their midst as she smiled, "Tonight, we shall have our fun together. This is my reward for all your loyalty in overthrowing my half-sister."

    Then he saw that there was a soft yellow animus that seemed to surround the Holy Maiden and the 20 elders.

    Ji Yuan quickly asked in his soul sea: Xiang Li, what is that yellow animus?

    Xiang Li answered: I don''t know. I''ve never seen it before.

    Anyang however said: They are dual cultivating. I''ve seen it quite a few times inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. This Holy Maiden Ling Shan is dual cultivating with all of them and she is taking their life force to be used for her own cultivation.

    Ji Yuan was startled: You mean all these elders are all her living cauldrons?

    Anyang observed for a short while before she said: That''s right. They are all her living cauldron and they all have a ve mark in their soul sea."

    Then Anyang said slowly to Ji Yuan: My lord, she isn''t at the saintess level. She is actually at the half-step 8th realm cultivation. Like you, she has been concealing her true cultivation realm.

    Ji Yuan cursed in his heart: Damn. I seem to have help the wrong person. At first when I had saved her, it is to prevent her from bing a living cauldron but she is actually vell verse in this evil dual cultivation art.

    Actually, Ji Yuan did not want to stay here any longer and he was about to leave.

    But before he had left the ce, he could hear the naked Holy Maiden Ling Shanughing softly with the 20 naked elders, "Give me all your yang essence! More yang essence! Then I shall gain mastery over the Poison Ivy Veins!"

    The 20 naked elders were all rushing to donate their yang essence into her and this showed in their depraved looks.

    Ji Yuan was startled: The Poison Ivy Veins? What is that? Don''t tell me that this is the stolen bloodline vein that she had just mentioned earlier?

    The Holy Maiden Ling Shan was heard moaning softly as she being covered with yang essence, "If it is not for this hateful Maiden Shui Xisi and her servant Ji Yuan, I would have already be a half-immortal at the peak 8th cultivation realm now. I like the beautiful face of this Maiden Shui Xisi and her maidens. It is time for me to change to a new face now¡­"

 Chapter 1255 The Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1255 The Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya (1) </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan quickly left the scene; he had no wish to witness their depraved act.

    At the same time, he did not want to meddle with the affairs of the Deste Underworld or to be their tools.

    His first thought was to quickly look for his maidens so that they would all leave this ce quickly.

    This ce was not their final stop but the Nine Abyssal Reals,

    As there was a patroling from where he hade from, he quickly entered into another dark corridor.

    As he sneaked along the dark corridor and was probing with his divine sense, he had suddenly noticed that a pce building seemed to be heavily fortified by profound arrays.

    Also, this pce seemed to have more cultivators than usual.

    Of course, these cultivators were ced here to keep watch on his maidens.

    He grinned as he said to Xiang Li and Anyang, "Hehe. Only a genius like me will be able to find my maidens so quickly."

    Anyang purposely asked him, "So, what will you do then?"

    Xiang Li was also giggling softly, "That''s right!"

    Ji Yuan awkwardly said, "I need both your help to neutralize the profound arrays in that ce for me. Hahaha¡­"

    Anyang chuckled, "So you do need our help."

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "Yes, I do."

    Soon he was inside the pce ground with the help of Anyang and Xiang Li.

    However, the only entrance to the pce building had 5 cultivators blocking it; one was a 5th realm golden celestial and the other four were 4th realm cultivators.

    Ji Yuan always have a way.

    And he quickly swooped in to disable them by knocking them unconscious with his sword fingers.

    Even the powerful 5th realm golden celestial did not know what had struck him as he was being floored on the ground by Ji Yuan''s sword fingers.

    As Ji Yuan was going to leave this ce anyway, he did not care about being discovered for snooping around.

    He soon found himself in a hall and in that hall, there was an opened secret passage just in front of the throne seat.

    This startled Ji Yuan as he did not expect to find a secret passage.

    Therefore he began to sneak down the secret passage to take a look.

    Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother. Your maidens will be in a secret passageway? This don''t sound right."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am just going to take a quick look. Don''t worry."

    Anyang asked curiously, "Don''t tell me that you are going to take a look down there to see if you can find any secret profound treasures?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "They can''t me me if they leave things lying around, am I right?"

    Anyang reminded him, "You are the Great Alliance Leader of the Deste Celestial Fraternity now. This will be awkward to your face if you are found out."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "I''ve almost forgotten about this¡­ I should turn back¡­"

    All of a sudden, he could hear noises in front of him.

    A cold voice was heard, "The Holy Maiden Ling Shan has taken over the Ivy League Sect now. It is pointless for you to resist her and us anymore. So give it up."

    Another hoarseughter was heard saying, "The Holy Maiden Ling Shan has already given you to be our living cauldron. You should know that this is your fate."

    "The two of you are so despicable! You have betrayed me and allowed Ling Shan to take over my sect leader position. Do you know what she had done? Why are the two of you helping her?" A soft feminine voice was heard saying weakly.

    The first voice hummed coldly, "It doesn''t matter anymore now. The two of you are the holy maidens of our Ivy League Sect. However, the majority of us prefer the Right Holy Maiden Ling Shan to rule over our cultivation sect than you the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya.

    Ji Yuan secretly sneaked to where they were at and saw that they were in a chamber.

    There were two 7th realm great saint cultivators there and a maiden that was in chain; this maiden was a peaked great saintess but her limbs were all chained and her profound strength were also restricted.

    Ji Yuan had expected to find an 8 year old child but instead he saw that she was a mature beautiful maiden that had multiple wounds on her body.

    It seemed to him that she was badly wounded in a fight.

    This Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya said bitterly to the two cultivators, "Before my father had passed away, he had ced me in charge of the Ivy League Sect, in charge of the welfare of everyone. Do you know what it means to fight against the deste cultivators?"

    The cultivator on the left, who was also the first voice that Ji Yuan had heard, began to say coldly. "We have enough of the fake peace that the deste cultivators and the Deste Underworld League has brought to us. Now that our Holy Maiden Ling Shan has killed the Demon Emperor and has even brought back the Poison Ivy Veins that is rightfully belonged to our cultivation sect, she is the one that has the right to rule over our Ivy League Sect."

    Holy Maiden Ling Ya said bitterly, "Elder Ling Fengshen, do you think that I do not know what Ling Shan has offered you? Did you sumb under her skirt as well?"

    Elder Ling Fengshenughed coldly, "It is already toote for you to realize this. And now, we are going to use you as our living cauldron now. This is what the Holy Maiden Ling Shan has promised us and you are our reward for betraying you."

    Holy Maiden Ling Ya gasped softly as she turned to stare at the second cultivator, "And you too, Elder Ling Jinshan? The two of you are my father''s most trusted brothers and elders. And I am also your niece. And you want to make me into your living cauldron? This is incest!"

    Elder Ling Jinshan hummed coldly, "Say no more! We will make put your attainment and your body to good use¡­"

    As he said that, he had torn her robe to expose her breasts.

    And he was grinning lecherous at her naked body.

    Elder Ling Fengshen was alsoughing and looking lecherous as well, "So this is the naked body of our Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya."

    Holy Maiden Ling Ya had tears flowing down from her eyes to her cheeks, "Who will save me from this miserable fate today? Where are the righteous immortal gods? If there is a hero that can save me today, then I will surely swear fealty to him¡­"

    Elder Ling Jinshan interrupted her coldly, "It is useless to cry for help. No one will be able to help you today. Hehehe¡­"

    All of a sudden, he had suddenly turned around with a look of rm and so did Elder Ling Fengshen.

    It was because they had suddenly noticed Ji Yuan standing behind them.

    Ji Yuan had actually wanted to surprise them but his sword fingers would be pointless against two great saint cultivators.

    At the same time that the two elders had disyed their divine swords, Ji Yuan had sent his 9 flying divine swords through their bodies, killing them instantly.

    This stunned the Holy Maiden Ling Ya who could not believe that two great saints would die instantly without any resistance.

    As for Ji Yuan, he was drooling at the naked body of the Holy Maiden Ling Ya while he tried to exin his presence, "Erm, I am only passing through. And I am a good guy."

 Chapter 1256 The Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1256 The Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya (2) </h4>

    ?

    When the Holy Maiden Ling Ya saw Ji Yuan for the very first time, she was not scared but rather, he was like a prince charming that had suddenly descended to save her.

    However, the intention of this unknown man was still unclear and he may be a saint or a beast of a man.

    Ji Yuan was drooling at the beautiful sight of the Holy Maiden Ling Ya as he approached her.

    However, he was a saint and not a beast of a man.

    He quickly used one of the flying divine swords to cut off the chains that were chained to her limbs before wrapping her with his new alliance leader robe that was his gift from his maidens by taking it out from his spatial storage.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya gasped as she looked at Ji Yuan, "Thank you foring to my aid. Who are you? Why is that I have never seen you before?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "I am a celestial from the Celestial Realm above and not from this ce."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya was startled, "You are from the Celestial Realm? How did you descend down from the three deste heavens?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly; he could not tell her that he was actually sent by the Great God Pangu.

    He said instead, "I had used a profound treasure to get down here."

    Then he admitted to her, "I didn''t exactlye to rescue you. Rather, I am lost in this ce and I am looking for my maidens who are in this ce. Do you think that you can help me? We are actually guests of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan¡­"

    But he quickly said, "I saved her from the Demoness Empress An Xuanji but I have no idea that she has been trying to make use of me all this while. I need to get my maidens out of this ce."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya slowly nodded, "If they are guests in this ce then I may know exactly where to find them. However, I need your help to navigate through to this ce. And¡­"

    She slowly lowered her golden eyes to say, "And can you help me to get out of this ce?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Sure, why not? This won''t be too difficult for me."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya turned to look at the two dead elders before she turned to look at Ji Yuan, "You are very strong. What is your name?"

    Ji Yuanughed jovially, "I am the nameless cultivator Ji Yuan."

    Xiang Li added for Ji Yuan in his soul sea: The shameless cultivator Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Very soon, the Holy Maiden Ling Ya had taken Ji Yuan out of the torture chamber and back to the great hall.

    She said shyly to Ji Yuan, "Please wait for me for a while¡­"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya had actually taken Ji Yuan to her residence and she had quickly returned with a beautiful maiden robe.

    Then she handed over to Ji Yuan back his robe and said shyly, "Thank you for your robe."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Not at all. It is my pleasure to help a maiden that is in distress."

    At the same time, he and Xiang Li were bothughing softly in secret: Nice breasts¡­

    Anyang muttered weakly when she had heard them: The two of you seem to think alike¡­

    Very soon, the Holy Ling Ya had taken Ji Yuan to another pce and it was a smaller one at the far east wing; it was a pce building that Ji Yuan could not think of searching as it was in a dark corner that was hidden behind two pce buildings as well.

    Anyang mocked Ji Yuan: It seems that someone says that he can surely find his maidens but he can''t find them and has to rely on someone else to do so.

    Ji Yuanughed weakly to Anyang: It is just a matter of time before I can finish searching all the pces. Hahaha¡­

    This smaller pce was also heavily patrolled.

    But to Ji Yuan, it was not an issue at all.

    And he quickly jumped over the tall walls.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya was startled when she saw that Ji Yuan was jumping over the walls, "Wait, Savior Ji Yuan. There are profound arrays on every walls. You can''t jump over like this¡­"

    "Hahaha," Ji Yuan grinned to her. "Don''t worry. I have neutralized the profound arrays already. You can jump over the walls with me too."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya was astonished and she was looking at Ji Yuan with a little disbelief, "Really?"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he waved his hand on the invisible wall of the profound arrays, "See. Nothing happens. No rm. Hahaha¡­"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya gasped and said, "The cultivation of Savior Ji Yuan is indeed impressive. It is indeed a great eye-

    opening for me to witness your cultivation feat."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I happen to be a genius at neutralizing profound arrays. Hahaha¡­"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya nodded, "Indeed, I believe you. I didn''t see you do anything and yet the profound arrays have been neutralized by you. Savior Ji Yuan, you are indeed a genius cultivator at neutralizing profound arrays. I hope to learn from you in the future."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as it was actually Xiang Li and Anyang that had neutralized it and they didn''t actually use any profound cultivation to do so; it was because they were spirit fairies and they can weaken the profound arrays, even destroying it. However, their ability to do so can''t be taught to anyone as this is their inherent ability.

    He said solemnly, "It may be a little difficult as we are not predestined to have any master-disciple rtionship."

    Ji Yuan pretended to say like a sage of great wisdom.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya sighed regretfully when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Xiang Li giggled to Ji Yuan: Big Brother! That room in front belongs to Maiden Shui Xisi! I can sense her already!

    Ji Yuan was delighted as heughed: Luckily, I have you, Xiang Li. Hahaha¡­

    The room in front of the hallway was guarded by four female cultivators.

    But it was not an issue to Ji Yuan who quickly knocked the four low level female cultivators onto the ground with his sword fingers.

    And in the next instant, he had shed to the entrance of the room.

    "Who is that?!" The voice of Shui Xisi shouted immediately as she opened the door as her divine sense had already alerted her to an attack that urred outside her room.

    When she saw that it was Ji Yuan, she was astonished but she was soon smiling. "I wonder who is that? So, it is my servant Ji Yuan."

    At the same time, she had also caught sight of the Holy Maiden Li Ya. "Who is she?"

    The Holy Maiden Li Ya who was following Ji Yuan gasped softly, "She calls you her servant then she must be your mistress? And she must be even more formidable than you?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to both Shui Xisi and the Holy Maiden Li Ya who were asking him at the same time. "I exinter. Where are the rest of the maidens? We need to leave this ce immediately."

    <h4>Chapter 1257 Destiny reveals her profound might </h4>

    ?Shui Xisi quickly called out aloud to the other maidens, "Who, who is here? I have won the bet that he would be here, hehe!"

    Ji Yuan: ???

    What bet?

    Am I so predictable?!

    It turned out that only Shui Xisi was at the outer hall when she had sensed something amiss.

    They were all housed in the same abode and this abode was actually quite spacious, with an outer hall, inner hall and as well as enough personal rooms for the five maidens.

    Shui Xisi quickly called the maidens out and they were equalled surprised to see Ji Yuan and the Holy Maiden Ling Ya.

    Soon, the Goddess Destiny, the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue had also walked out to inner hall where Shui Xisi, Ji Yuan and Ling Ya were at.

    Xue Qianxue smiled, "Ji Yuan, I didn''t know that you are so lecherous as to bring a beautiful maiden here with you. But I think you have entered the wrong ce.."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He protested immediately, "Qianxue, in your eyes, am I really such a lecherous man?"

    Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and Shui Xisi immediately nodded at the same time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya quickly said, "It isn''t like this. Savior Ji Yuan saved me from the dungeon earlier and he is looking for all of you to make a escape from this ce."

    Ji Yuan immediately said loudly, "Hear, hear! This is actually my intention!"

    Xu Yifei asked Ji Yuan curiously, "Who is this maiden?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "I''ve forgotten to introduce you to her. She is the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya."

    Shui Xisi asked curiously, "She is also a holy maiden like Ling Shan? Then is she the disposed ruler?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "That''s right."

    Shui Xisi had the same doubts as Ji Yuan now and she was frowning, "She isn''t a 8 year old. Then this Ling Shan has lied to us."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya said quietly, "I can exin things to youter. But first, we need to leave this ce first."

    "Wait a minute," Shui Xisi said. "Why should we believe her, instead of that Ling Shan?"

    Ji Yuan patted Shui Xisi on her shoulders as he said, "Trust me. That Ling Shan is an evil dual cultivator and I saw something that is from her that I cannot reveal to you."

    Shui Xisi smiled wryly to Ji Yuan, "What is it then? She tried to seduce you and you cannot perform?"

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly, "Trust me and let''s go first."

    Ling Feiyue giggled softly, "It''s not that we don''t believe you but your trust level is really low."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Xu Yifei said quietly, "I trust Master Ji Yuan here¡­"

    Xue Qianxue tugged Xu Yifei all of a sudden as she chuckled, "We are only teasing him. Rx¡­"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This is not funny. We need to leave this ce immediately or we''ll be screwed soon."

    The Goddess Destiny smiled wryly, "We will lose to the cultivators here?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "It isn''t the point. We don''t know how determine they are and we don''t have unlimited profound strength to deal with so many of them."

    The Goddess Destiny smiled, "We can try them then."

    Ji Yuan had already walked to the entrance as he said, "I shall carry the Holy Maiden Ling Ya. Sisi, you carry Xue Qianxue while Xu Yifei shall carry Ling Feiyue."

    The Goddess Destiny smiled to Ji Yuan. "What about me? I don''t need to carry anyone?"

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly to her; he did not dare to order a true divinity goddess and he wants to live for a long time.

    -

    -

    -

    Ji Yuan, the Holy Maiden Ling Ya and his maidens had quickly left the Ivy League Sect by flying away.

    They were naturally spotted by the dozens of mounted patrols and were immediately pursued.

    The Great Goddess Destiny turned around in mid-air as she coldly said, "Begone!"

    She waved her hand and released her profound strength and a tidal profound force began to sweep all the dozens of mounted cultivators back to the ground.

    At this moment, she had released her profound strength to the half-step true divinity cultivation strength and her profound force caused a general panic among the cultivators as they were knocked onto the ground; they did not dare to pursue anymore as the profound might of the Goddess Destiny had caused them to be in great awe and in great fear.

    Even the Holy Maiden Ling Ya was greatly startled when she saw the powerful disy of the cultivation realm of the Goddess Destiny, "She is a True Goddess?!"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly and said nothing but he was actually thinking: Well, she is a true divinity now. If she uses her true divinity profound might, these cultivators would surely shit in their pants.

    The Goddess Destiny actually did not want to reveal her profound strength this early but because she had to cover the space for miles around and it was not possible to do so even if she was restricted to the 9th realm cultivation.

    Therefore, she had to release her profound strength to the half-

    step true divinity 10th realm as the 10th realm was able to cover vast empty space across in order for her profound strength to enact upon.

    She could of course release her profound strength to the peaked 9th realm to awe her pursuers but she wanted to punish them for even daring toe after her.

    The 10th cultivation realm is the ''Spatial'' realm, unlike the ''Soul'' realm of the 7th cultivation realm and the ''Essence'' realm of the 9th cultivation realm.

    In this realm, her profound strength would be channeled across for miles around and she could make a long range strike against her opponents.

    This was the same reason why Ji Yuan''s One Dividing Sword was actually a True Divinity Sword Art as it could be deliver over a long distance without losing its profound power.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya was also astonished that they could fly like the deste cultivators and she was even more astonished to see the spiritual animus of Xu Yifei that was shaped like magical wings.

    Ji Yuan saw her astonishment and told her, "Maiden Xu Yifei is a spiritas and she isn''t a celestial like us."

    "Spiritas?"

    Ji Yuanughed, "That''s right. She is from the Spirit Divine Realm, a heavenly realm that is far away from the Celestial Realm."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya was truly surprised and were in awe of all these mysterious and powerful cultivators that had helped her.

 Chapter 1258 A Deadly Secret (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1258 A Deadly Secret (1) </h4>

    ?After flying for 6 hours, they soon spotted a ''deserted'' ind in the ocean ofva.

    It was actually the Goddess Destiny that had told them, "There are no cultivators except for the profound beasts that are on this ind."

    The Goddess Destiny had scanned the entire ind with her divine sense and had told Ji Yuan about the result.

    Ji Yuan was in awe as he muttered to himself: Her divine sense is so powerful. I wonder when I can be like her. s, I wish I can pay more attention to my spirit cultivation.

    Actually he did not know that the 10th cultivation realm is the ''Spatial'' realm and he would be able to scan the entire ind with his divine sense in the future too when he was a true divinity.

    It is impossible to surprise a true divinity and no amount of stealth or practice would be enough.

    Even if Ji Yuan concealed his presence, a true divinity would still be able to see him with their divine sense.

    However, he didn''t know about this and moreover, even many cultivators did not know about this as well.

    In fact, when Ji Yuan was attempting to sneak into the perimeter of the pce or when he was talking to Shui Xisi, the Goddess Destiny was already aware of his presence.

    But she had decided to eavesdrop on their conversations in secret first.

    It was only when Shui Xisi had called them out then she had walked slowly from her personal room to the hall to greet Ji Yuan and the Holy Maiden Ling Ya.

    Ji Yuan and his group soon found a cave in one of the mountain peaks of this deserted ind and they had decided to hide in there for the time being.

    Ji Yuan said to his group with a weak chuckle, "Let''s hope that we are not being pursued aggressively by them."

    The Goddess Destiny smiled wryly, "Don''t worry. I''ve already removed all traces of our profound signatures from the vicinity. Unless they are able to use some powerful scrying profound treasures to find us, we will be safe."

    Indeed.

    Just before they had flown down from the skies, the Goddess Destiny had waved her hand to disy her profound force again, this time it was to totally dissipate all their profound signatures from the vicinity.

    Even the best tracker would find it impossible to find them because she hadpletely removed all profound signatures from their presence in the vicinity and for a hundred miles around.

    The effort to do this was rtively simple and effortless for the Goddess Destiny and hence, Ji Yuan and his group did not know about this.

    Shui Xisi chuckled, "It is so good that we have the Goddess Destiny with us."

    As the daughter of the Great God Pangu and the Great Goddess Alice, she was aware of the Goddess Destiny''s ability to remove their presence and she was not entirely surprised by it.

    But for Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Xu Yifei and the Holy Maiden Li Ya, they were all startled by it and was in awe much like Ji Yuan.

    Ji Yuan was not exactly surprised by the Goddess Destiny''s ability to conceal all of them as he had already suspected that she was spying on them while he was inside the Oracle Gate with Xu Yifei and the Goddess Ai Tina.

    Now that they were inside the cave, Ji Yuan had some questions for the Holy Maiden Ling Ya.

    So he told them about what they knows and how they had rescued the Holy Maiden Ling Shan.

    He said to her, "This is what we know about the Holy Maiden Ling Shan. We''ve thought that we are helping her but I am beginning to have some regrets now. What exactly is your rtionship with her and how was she captured by the Deste Venom Sect?"

    Ji Yuan could not resist adding, "You won''t lie to us, right? After all, I had saved you."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya took a pitiful look at Ji Yuan as she sighed heavily, "So in her eyes, I am merely only a 8 year old child that had usurped her position? This is all a lie. I am the rightful leader of the Ivy League Sect¡­"

    Then she added mncholy, "The Ivy league Sect always have two holy maidens to lead the cultivation sect. The left and the right. It is always the Left Holy Maiden that is leading the sect while the Right Holy Maiden serves as the assistant sect leader¡­"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya sighed, "However, Ling Shan is more popr with the elders as she has always advocated war with the Deste Underworld Alliance, especially against the Deste Venom Sect that is leading the Deste Underworld Alliance¡­."

    Ji Yuan interrupted with a soft chuckle, "Well, she is more popr for another reason though."

    He had seen her dual cultivating with her elders and even making them into her living cauldrons. As her living cauldrons, they have to obey hermand.

    Shui Xisi tugged Ji Yuan''s sleeves as she stared at him coldly, "Stop interrupting and listen first."

    But Ji Yuan simplyughed coldly.

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya actually knows what Ji Yuan was referring to and said with lowered eyes, "She has many affairs

    with the elders and they have all sumbed under her skirt¡­"

    Then she looked up and said, "One day, she had offered to be a concubine of the Demon Emperor An Taiji and she has a bold n to assassinate him. Naturally, I had tried to stop her but it was futile."

    "She did seed in assassinating the Demon Emperor An Taiji but she was also captured as well. Up to this point, even I think that she would be dead by now. But as you have already known, she was rescued by your group and has even returned to the Ivy League Sect."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "There is another matter which I do not understand. I''ve fought against the many cultivation experts of the Deste Venom Sect and even against the Demoness Empress An Xuanji. She is really strong. I don''t understand how she can make an enemy out of the Deste Venom Sect and even the powerful cultivators of the Deste Venom Sect."

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya said quietly to Ji Yuan, "She isn''t a 7th realm cultivator but a 8th realm half-immortal. She is stronger than you think she is."

    "Also," she began to sigh. "The Poison Ivy Veins is originally a present from our true master to the Deste Venom Sect. Now that she has obtained it back, I fear that she may be even stronger than before."

    Ji Yuan asked with a startled look, "What true master?"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya appeared to hesitate, "This is supposed to be a deadly secret of our two cultivation sects¡­"

 Chapter 1259 A Deadly Secret (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1259 A Deadly Secret (2) </h4>

    ?The Holy Maiden Ling Ya sighed softly before she said slowly, "The true master of our underworld domain is the Great Deste Wyrm. All deste and human cultivators are actually under the control of the Great Deste Wyrm. The reason why I am the holy maiden of the Ivy League Sect is also because it is my secret and sacred duty to nurture the Poison Ivy Veins for the Great Deste Wyrm. Only my blood and Ling Shan''s blood will be able to nurture the Poison Ivy Veins¡­"

    Then she heaved a soft sigh, "As for the reason why the deste cultivators and the human cultivators are able to co-exist for such a long time in this underworld domain, it is because we are the vassals of this Great Deste Wyrm. As for the Demoness Empress An Xuanji, she is also a vassal of this Great Deste Wyrm¡­"

    "The very act of attacking the Ivy League Sect will quickly bring upon the wrath of our true master the Great Deste Wyrm. That is why the Holy Maiden Ling Shan is not afraid of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji or any of the deste cultivators."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "This Poison Ivy Veins, what is it exactly? Why does the Great Deste Wyrm needs the two of you to nurture it?"

    The Holy Maiden Ling Ya shook her head, "This I do not know. I only know that we have to nurture it for the Great Deste Wyrm and for that, the Great Deste Wyrm will protect the human cultivators from the deste cultivators."

    "Some time ago, the now dead Demon Emperor An Taiji had taken the Poison Ivy Veins from me, with the help of my half-sister Ling Shan so as to study the Poison Ivy Veins¡­"

    Ling Ya sighed heavily, "I didn''t expect for her to conspire with the Demon Emperor An Taiji to steal the Ivy Poison Veins from my hands."

    "Later, it is exactly what you have known. Ling Shan had killed the Demon Emperor An Taiji and taken back the Ivy Poison Veins from him. As the holy maiden of the Great Deste Wyrm, she too has the ability to absorb the Poison Ivy Veins and as long as she did not surrender it, there is nothing the Demoness Empress An Xuanji can do about it. It is because the Poison Ivy Veins will disappear if she is killed. And the Demoness Empress An Xuanji did not want to risk the wrath of the Great Deste Wyrm."

    Ling Ya said further, "Every 100 years, the holy maidens of the Ivy League Sect will have to surrender the nurtured Poison Ivy Veins to the Great Deste Wyrm and then a new Poison Ivy Veins will be given to us to nurture again. And the time for the return is near¡­"

    She sighed, "I fear that Ling Shan may have ns of her own and she will not surrender the Poison Ivy Veins so readily."

    Ji Yuan sighed softly, "I see now. So she is only pretending to be a vulnerable maiden in front of me and Sisi. She is actually capable of fighting off the Demoness Empress An Xuanji all by herself."

    He had suddenly remembered that Ling Ya had told him that this Right Holy Maiden Ling Shan was actually at the 8th half-immortal realm."

    Ling Ya said, "Not exactly. The Demoness An Xuanji is actually strong enough to handle her even though she is only at the peaked 7th cultivation realm. The bloodlines of the deste cultivators give them plenty of advantages if they are able to use it. But of course, not all deste cultivators will have such powerful bloodlines to fight their cultivation realm. But the bloodline of this Demoness An Xuanji is really strong."

    Ji Yuan nodded slowly.

    He was forced to agree with her; in his earlier fight with the Demoness Empress An Xuanji, he had indeed found her to be stronger than most of the deste cultivators. This included the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa.

    Shui Xisi was now frowning, "I still find it hard to believe. Ling Shan looks like a good maiden to me."

    Ji Yuan grinned to her, "Well, let me tell me what I''ve seen earlier and how she intends to use your face for her evil schemes."

    Then he began to reveal to the 5 maidens including the Right Holy Maiden Ling Ya how he had stumbled onto her dual cultivating with the elders of the Ivy League Sect and what he had seen.

    Shui Xisi was astonished, "You mean all these elders are her dual cultivation living cauldrons?"

    Xue Qianxue began to curse softly, "It seems that these evil cultivators are more rampant down here than the Evil Cultivation Pce."

    Even Ling Feiyue was sighing softly, "The world below the Celestial Realm are actually meant for the evil cultivators. Over time, they have be even more depraved."

    The Left Holy Maiden Li Ya was startled, "I can''t believe it. She is the holy maiden of the Ivy League Sect. I can''t believe that she needs to dual cultivate to increase her cultivation."

    But she was forced to admit to Ji Yuan and to the other 5 maidens, "But you are right. Dual cultivation is prettymon here. Even the deste and human cultivators regrly engaged in multiple dual cultivation here."

    Ji Yuan curiously asked, "You say that this domain is actually controlled by the Great Deste Wyrm. Exactly how many domains are there in the deste underworld?"

    The Left Holy Maiden Li Ya said, "I don''t know exactly how many. There should be at least 30 or even 100. There are many parts of the deste underworld that remain unexplored and the grounds here constantly shifting due to seismic activities. But in this domain, the will of the Great Deste Wyrm is absolute."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "This deste monster must be an extremely powerful one in order to be able to exert such a powerful influence even over the powerful deste cultivators."

    The Left Holy Maiden Li Ya said weakly, "I have heard that the powerful deste monsters are also the lords of the other domains¡­"

    Then she looked at Ji Yuan to say, "Savior Ji Yuan, it is wiser for you not to provoke such a powerful profound beast. They are the titans of our domain and have many powerful deste beasts under theirmands. You won''t be able to fight them. None of you will be able to."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Well, let''s see first. Hahaha¡­"

    Shui Xisi said to Ji Yuan as she interrupted him, "These profound beasts are probably epic ss profound beasts. Not even the immortal gods will dare to provoke them easily."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Epic ss profound beasts?! The most powerful ss of the profound beasts?"

    He had never actually seen one before.

    Shui Xisi nodded, "They are extremely powerful. Trust me, you are just a fly to them. Don''t even think of checking them out and don''t say that I didn''t warn you."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He was actually thinking of bagging the record of seeing one himself. Of course, he was not foolish enough to fight one but he was hoping to see one before he runs away.

    Just as Ji Yuan was about to say something more, the Goddess Destiny had suddenly said. "Arge number of cultivators areing this way. We should hide."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Didn''t you say that we should be quite safe in this ce?"

    The Goddess Destiny smiled, "They are not the cultivators from the Ivy League Sect. Rather, they are deste cultivators. I suspect that the reason why they are here is precisely they have thought that this ind is deserted. Maybe they are nning to raid the Ivy League Sect."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "This makes a little sense. Well, let''s hide first and see if they are really after us or not."

 Chapter 1260 The Desolate Underworld Alliance (1)

    <h4>Chapter 1260 The Deste Underworld Alliance (1) </h4>

    ?To Ji Yuan''s surprise, the deste cultivators had spotted the cave that Ji Yuan was hiding and they wereing his way.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "What the heck? Can''t they go elsewhere?"

    Shui Xisi smiled weakly, "This ind isn''t exactly big and like you, they have spotted this cave from high above. You really think alike like them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    As he was about to protect, the Goddess Destiny had interrupted them.

    The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan and his group, "I can erect a profound shield to render us invisible to their eyes. However, you mustn''t muster your profound strength or else you will be detected by them."

    Ji Yuanughed, "Luckily the Goddess Destiny is here."

    Shui Xisi hummed, "Useless fellow."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He frowned, "You are not that useful too."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue on the other hand were both giggling softly to themselves; they know that Shui Xisi was still trying to maintain her shameless charade of not being on the best terms with Ji Yuan. And the same was for Ji Yuan as well.

    Quickly they had retreated to a corner of this cave where the Goddess Destiny had erected an illusion of a cave wall in front of them.

    From outside, this would look like a solid wall unless someone would be so bored as to inspect or touch the cave wall.

    Very soon, they could sense the approach of nearly a thousand cultivators, many of them with their own flying mounts. Some were even flying on their own.

    However, only around 30 cultivators had entered this cave and they seemed to be the most powerful deste cultivators among them.

    Among them, Ji Yuan had naturally recognized the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and the other 6 deste cultivators that were with her that day. Among the 6 cultivators, Elder Ma Qianhuo and Elder Fa Lungong were her most trusted elders.

    As for 23 other cultivators, he did not know them.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji quickly erected an anti-sound barrier at the entrance of the cave before she said to all the deste cultivators that were presented. "This ce is quite close to the Ivy League Sect. We need to make ns to avenge thete Demon Emperor. And I want to hear your opinions about it. It seems that many of you are unhappy about it. Why don''t you tell me your concerns?"

    An old deste cultivator with long white whiskers said solemnly, "Is it wise for us to attack the Ivy League Sect so directly? What if we were to incur the wrath of the Great Deste Wyrm? Then won''t this be terrible for us? The Great Deste Wyrm is the true overlord of our Deste Underworld."

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji turned to look at the speaker and she smiled, "So it is Sect Leader Powell the Iron Guts of the Great Depression Sect. Are you afraid of the Great Deste Wyrm that you think that my father''s death should not be avenged?"

    Sect Leader Powell frowned, "I will be afraid? I am renowned as the Iron Guts of the Deste Underworld. I fear nothing and no one¡­ except for the Great Deste Wyrm. My own life is of no consequences but my cultivation sect may be at stake here."

    When he had said that, many of the cultivators were nodding and agreeing with him.

    Another aged cultivator with a pair of solid wings on his back had walked forward and Ji Yuan thought that he looked like he was from the draconian race.

    He said solemnly, "Sect Leader Powell is right. The Great Deste Wyrm had warned us in the past that the Mt. Vulcan Ind is strictly off limits to us. I still remember the great cmity 3000 years ago when we attacked the Ivy League Sect."

    "I know about the great cmity, Sect Leader Li Goudan."

    Then she sighed softly as she looked at the two Sect Leaders Powell and Li Goudan, "The two of you are myte father''s bosom friends as well as sworn brothers. But why aren''t you thinking of avenging myte father but you have to fear the Great Deste Wyrm instead? We are much stronger than 3000 years ago¡­"

    She added, "Also, just a short while ago, this Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan had just raided my Deste Venom Sect and had even killed several of my elders including the Great Deste Saint On-Wa. The is a double vendetta from my Deste Venom Sect. The reason why I have summoned the Deste Underworld Alliance for this punitive expedition is not only to avenge the honor of my Deste Venom Sect but it is also to show the human cultivators who are the real overlords of the Deste Underworld. Do you want your pride to be trampled by the human dogs?"

    Many of the cultivators were quiet; they feared the Great Deste Wyrm more than anything.

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he could not stand straight and he was cursing softly. "What human dogs?! You are all deste pigs!"

    Shui Xisi whispered to him, "Say that to Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao in the face if you dare or you are just a puppy in front of them."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji had slowly turned back and she was walked to face the cave wall in front of her and that was where Ji Yuan and his group were.

    Ji Yuan could see the beautiful curves of her beautiful figure and enticing beautiful countenance as she sighed heavily.

    She said with her back turned against all the deste cultivators, "I have retrieved the Million Diaspora Lotus to do battle with the Ivy League Sect. With or without your help, I am determined to kill the Holy Maiden Ling Shan and the Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan¡­"

    Ji Yuan purposely made a funny face in front of her as he knows that she could not see him.

    Xue Qianxue warned Ji Yuan, "Don''t go too overboard."

    Ji Yuanughed softly, "Don''t worry. She can''t see us. Hahaha¡­"

    Ling Feiyue warned him too, "Pridees before the fall."

    Sect Leader Powell quickly gasped, "Don''t! This is possibly our only weapon against the messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms. And in less than a week''s time, the Nine Abyss Realm''s messenger will be here. We can''t win¡­"

    Sect Leader Li Goudan said panicky too, "The Holy Maiden Li Shan and her Ivy League Sect may be our best protection for only she can summon the Great Deste Wyrm. Please think over it!"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji hummed coldly as she gave a kick in rage and almost hitting Ji Yuan''s crotch, "So you are all afraid?!"

    Ji Yuan in the mean time was muttering almost incoherently, "Please be careful where you are kicking¡­"

 Chapter 1261 The Desolate Underworld Alliance (2)

    <h4>Chapter 1261 The Deste Underworld Alliance (2) </h4>

    ?Ji Yuan had suddenly squat down to try to protect his crotch as he thought, "This is much better now."

    Then he had suddenly realized that he had made a fatal mistake and he was actually staring at her crotch instead.

    There was a thinly veiled thong in front of the Demoness An Xuanji''s crotch; Ji Yuan could even see the panties strings of her panties on her waist and even her beautiful slender white thighs and long legs.

    Shui Xisi cursed Ji Yuan behind him, "Ji Yuan, what are you doing?"

    Ji Yuan was too mesmerized by the beautiful view in front of him to take notice of Shui Xisi though.

    At this moment, he could see that the beautiful crimson eyes of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji were watery; she had turned around to talk to the alliance leaders because she was finding it hard to control her trembling emotions.

    The deste cultivators are marked by their crimson eyes instead of the golden eyes of the celestial cultivators due to the differences in their cultivation.

    The celestial cultivators practiced the golden celestial cultivation while the deste cultivators practiced the asura cultivation.

    The golden celestial cultivation transforms the skeleton of the celestial cultivators to a golden skeleton, enabling them to have more powerful body to gain more strength, power and regeneration.

    However, the deste cultivators already have a more powerful body than the celestial cultivators in additional to their own unique spirit animus. So they practiced the asura cultivation instead.

    However the deste cultivators are unable to gain additional spirit animus other than their own tribal totems.

    But for the celestial cultivators, they are able to cultivate it with their golden cultivation as they focused more on the spirit and the soul.

    Of course, there are many celestial cultivators like Ji Yuan who are good-for-nothing celestial cultivators that do not cultivate their spirit and soul.

    Powerful deste cultivators like Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao are able to conceal their crimson eyes and auras to disguise themselves as a celestial cultivator.

    However for most deste cultivators, disguising their cultivation are impossible due to their oundish physique that already marked them differently from a human or celestial cultivator.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji did not know that her emotions were being noticed by Ji Yuan, the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya, Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue, the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and the Goddess Destiny at the same time.

    "So, are you all afraid?" the Demoness Empress An Xuanji repeated herself.

    Sect Leader Powell sighed heavily as he said behind her back, "We can''t win against the Great Deste Wyrm even if we want to seek vendetta for thete Demon Emperor¡­"

    Sect Leader Li Goudan had also interrupted to say loudly, "The Holy Maiden Ling Shan can im to the Great Deste Wyrm that she is only taking back the Poison Ivy Veins¡­"

    "So, you are saying that thete Demon Emperor is wrong in taking the Poison Ivy Veins from the Holy Maiden Ling Shan?" The Demoness Empress An Xuanji coldly interrupted.

    She added coldly, "Myte father didn''t steal the Poison Ivy Veins. It was given to him by the Holy Maiden Ling Shan to him. Please get your facts correctly."

    The Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya quickly exined to Ji Yuan and the rest, "The deste cultivators actually did not know the secrets of the Poison Ivy Veins. They did not know that only my blood and Ling Shan''s blood essence is able to nurture it. Ling Shan had presented it to thete Demon Emperor An Taiji after they had conspired to steal it from my hands. Then she had killed him after he had absorbed it to increase his own cultivation. Little did he not know that this was a trap for him by Ling Shan¡­"

    "When I had realized that the Poison Ivy Veins had been stolen from me, it is already toote. When Ling Shan had returned from the Deste Venom Sect after you had rescued her, she had be too powerful for me to defeat."

    Ji Yuan nodded, "So the one that actually has the cultivation increased is the Holy Maiden Ling Shan. If I am not wrong, then she must have dual cultivated with the Demon Emperor An Taiji in his weakest moment and made him into her living cauldron."

    Ling Ya slowly nodded, "I guess so¡­"

    The Goddess Destiny had suddenly interrupted, "A powerful presence is now approaching."

    All of a sudden, the Demoness Empress An Xuanji had shed her crimson eyes as her divine sense could sense a powerful presence that was approaching rapidly from beyond the cave.

    And she had turned pale immediately.

    Ji Yuan was curious to know who was able to cause even the Demoness Empress An Xuanji to be so startled all of a sudden?

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji quickly turned around as she tidied her robe in a hurry and so did many of the deste cultivators in the cave.

    All of a sudden, a man with a ghost mask and a ck robe was at the entrance of the cave.

    As soon as the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and the rest of the deste cultivators saw this masked man in a ck robe, they quickly kneeled on the ground in a respectful homage.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji said respectfully, "An Xuanji on behalf of the Deste Underworld Alliance pays my humble respects to the Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms¡­"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he had almost jumped up and he was looking excited; it was because he had been looking for the entrance to the Nine Abyss Realms and there is actually a Divine Messenger from the Nine Abyss Realms in this ce!

    The masked Divine Messenger said coldly, "Why are all of you in this ce? Are you here to warn the Great Deste Wyrm of mying?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji answered softly, "Your Divine Messenger, you may not know this but myte father had been killed by the Holy Maiden Ling Shan. I am now the new Demoness Empress. We are here to seek vendetta for thete Demon Emperor."

    The masked Divine Messengerughed coldly, "I don''t care about yourte father. Have you forgotten about the task that I have given to all of you? Do you really believe that I won''t wipe out all of you?"

    From behind her, Ji Yuan could clearly see that the Demoness Empress An Xuanji had clenched her seething rage fists that were hidden by her long sleeves in front of the masked man in ck robe.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji humbled said, "We remember¡­"

    The masked Divine Mesenger said coldly, "And what is the result now?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji and many of the deste cultivators had turned very pale¡­

 Chapter 1262 The Secret Hierographic Name

    <h4>Chapter 1262 The Secret Hierographic Name </h4>

    ?The masked Divine Messenger repeated coldly again as he stared at the Demoness Empress An Xuanji, "Have you forgotten about the task that I have given to you?"

    Although he was saying it to all the leaders of the Deste Underworld Alliance that was presented in this ce, he had directed the question to the Demoness Empress An Xuanji as she was now the leader of the Deste Underworld Alliance.

    There was a look of hesitation in the crimson eyes of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji as she pondered briefly if she ought to be submissive; it was because she had now retrieved the Million Diaspora Lotus and it was a powerful profound weapon that could be used against anyone.

    There was a problem though; she could only use it only once on a single foe unless her foes all happened to be at the same ce and at the same time. The reason why she could only use it only once was because its profound energies would be depleted for a long time afterward and this lost profound energies could only be regained by nurturing a vast amount of cultivation resources.

    Therefore, she could only use it with great care and at the veryst resort.

    Herte father the Demon Emperor An Taiji was actually nning to use it on the Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms as ast resort.

    But for the Demoness Empress An Xuanji, she had nned to use it on the Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan or the Holy Maiden Ling Shan.

    While the rest of the deste cultivators had thought that the Holy Maiden Ling Shan was actually weaker than them or she would not be so easily captured, the Demoness Empress An Xuanji had suspected that she may be hiding her true strength.

    That was why she had purposely sent the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa to test her out, knowing very well that he was a lecherous man.

    Her instructions to him were that he ought to retrieve the Poison Ivy Veins through any necessary means and then he would then end the life of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan to avenge thete Demon Emperor An Taiji.

    Among the interrogators of the Holy Maiden Ling Shan were two trusted and powerful elders that she had nted with the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa and they would report any news or updates of the interrogations to her.

    The reason why she had put spies with the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa was because she did not actually trust the Demonic Great saint On-Wa as he was an extremely ambitious man and he had his own loyal faction within the Deste Venom Sect.

    Her two spies had secretly told her that the Demonic Great Saint On-Wa had nned to make the Holy Maiden Ling Shan into his living cauldron.

    She actually did not mind it as she had considered it a fate worse than death if the Great Demonic Saint On-Wa were to put a ve mark on her.

    It was a good means of extracting the Poison Ivy Veins and was a good n.

    However, she was also wary that the Great Demonic Saint On-Wa was trying to obtain the Poison Ivy Veins for himself. Hence, this was the second reason why she had nted two spies near him.

    She was also aware and wary that these two elders may be double spies and that they had served the Great Demonic Saint On-Wa as well since they were in his faction.

    However, she did not have any choice as she was a newly crowned Demoness Empress and her influence in the Poison Ivy Sect was extremely limited.

    Actually she did have a brother named the Demon Prince An Ben and he was supposed to be the rightful heir.

    However, many years ago, he had tried to usurp the throne unsessfully from theirte father and he was now exiled.

    There were also many powerful voices within her Deste Venom Sect and even among the Deste Underworld Alliance to call for the return of the Demon Prince An Ben to assume the title of the Demon Emperor instead of her.

    Regardless, she was no longer the Demoness Princess now and is now the Demoness Empress.

    She only had two things that she wanted to aplish;

    One. Retrieve the Poison Ivy Veins that was ripped from herte father.

    Two. Avenge herte father by killing the Holy Maiden Ling Shan.

    What seemed to be an easy thing for her had suddenly be very difficult.

    One. It was because the Demoness Empress An Xuanji did not expect for the Holy Maiden Ling Shan to have escaped from her ordeal and that a Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan had suddenly rescued her.

    This was indeed a trump card of hers that she had not anticipated.

    Two. She had almost forgotten that the the Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms had suddenly appeared some time ago and given a task for the Deste Underworld to aplish.

    As the Divine Messenger did not say when he woulde again, she had thought of putting this matter aside first.

    But today, the Divine Messenger had actually arrived!

    His suddenly arrival had stunned her and many of the deste leaders who were all breaking into cold sweats now.

    The reason why they were breaking into cold sweats were because when the Divine Messenger had first appeared, many of the deste cultivators did not take him seriously and many of their senior leaders and elders were all killed by him as though they were like tofu.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji slowly said, "I remember¡­ our task."

    The masked Divine Messenger asked coldly, "And how is it?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji took a look at the deste leaders and elders behind her as she asked, "If anyone of you got any updates, please say so."

    But after 3 blinks of an eye, no one spoke.

    All of a sudden, the masked Divine Messenger had raised his fingers and blowed the head off a deste cultivator that was kneeling behind, "Is that so? I say that you are not being too attentive to my requests."

    This immediately freaked many of the deste leaders and elders who were all stammering with great fear.

    The Empress Demoness An Xuanji had turned very pale.

    When Ji Yuan saw this scene, he was also looking quite startled when he saw the powerful profound power that was disyed all of a sudden; this Divine Messenger was really an extreme cultivator. If anyone had told him that he was an immortal, then Ji Yuan would not be surprised.

    The masked Divine Messenger then pointed his fingers at the head of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji, "Tell me then, what is my task to you?"

    The Empress Demoness An Xuanji said with trembling lips, "You have tasked us to find out the true hierographic name of the Great Deste Wyrm¡­."

    "And what is it?" The masked Divine Messenger asked coldly.

    The Empress Demoness An Xuanji stammered, "We have searched all the ancient records for a clue and we have even asked numerous of the seclusive sages around¡­ and we have even sent our cultivators to the other underworld domains¡­"

    "It is just a few simple runic words and you need such a long time?! Tell me how simple it is?!" The masked Divine Messenger had suddenly interrupted her.

    The Empress Demoness An Xuanji stammered, "It is N-A-S-A-

    T."

    The masked Divine Messenger had now raised his fingers on her forehead and said coldly, "What do you think it is then?"

    The Empress Demoness An Xuanji stammered but she had continued to lift her head high up even though she had broken into cold sweat, "I think it can form the word TANAS."

    Ji Yuan could not resist making a guess, "Silly! It is SANTA! I remember an old legend of a cultivator called SANTA that loves to give presents¡­"

    Shui Xisi interrupted Ji Yuan as she was also making a guess, "Oh no, it is SATAN instead. Because the A in the middle looks like eyes and T is the middle is the nose. As for S is the head and the N is the chin¡­"

    "What the heck is this logic?" Ji Yuan frowned an interrupted at Shui Xisi. "It is SANTA, trust me on that¡­"

    All of a sudden the masked Divine Messenger began to stare at the empty cave wall that Ji Yuan and his group were at.

    And he was saying coldly in the direction of his eyes, "Who is that?!"

    Ji Yuan was startled, "He can see and hear us?!"

    Shui Xisi hit him on his back, "Ji Yuan. Shhhhhh! Stop talking now! Or our cover will be blown..."

    Ji Yuan stared at her, "You are the one that is talking..."

    All of a sudden, the masked Divine Messenger had flickered his fingers and a bolt of powerful profound force had sped toward Ji Yuan''s head!

 Chapter 1263 Ji Yuan is â€™Discoveredâ€™

    <h4>Chapter 1263 Ji Yuan is ''Discovered'' </h4>

    ?The masked Divine Messenger had sent a flicker of powerful bolt of profound force into Ji Yuan''s direction.

    It was almost instantaneous and extremely fast.

    But Ji Yuan was even faster as he disyed his half-step emperor divine sword from the scabbard behind his back to block off the profound attack, deflecting it to the side of the cave which caused it to explode a big hole at the side of the cave that shook the entire cave for quite some time!

    At the same time, Ji Yuan''s divine sword was shaking nonstop even though he had stabbed it onto the ground when he had deflected it.

    This half-step emperor divine sword was actually the most powerful divine sword from his nine flying divine swords.

    Ji Yuan was astonished at how powerful the profound attack was and he was gulping at the thought that his neck may be snapped by it or even his head would be blown up by it.

    The powerful profound attack had also shattered the illusion that the Goddess Destiny had ced around them, causing Ji Yuan and his group to appear immediately.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji and her Deste Underworld Alliance were all astonished to see there were 7 others that were in the same cave as them and they had not noticed them!

    These 7 others naturally referred to Ji Yuan, the Holy Maiden Ling Ya, the Goddess Destiny, Shui Xisi, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji gasped when she saw Ji Yuan, "You! You are the Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan!"

    All of a sudden, there was a flustered look on her countenance as she had remembered standing in front of them earlier and she had betrayed her emotions in front of them¡­

    Elder Ma Qianhuo had also recognized the Holy Maiden Ling Ya, "Look! Isn''t this the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya of the Ivy League Sect?"

    Many of the deste cultivators were also astonished!

    The Goddess Destiny muttered weakly from behind Ji Yuan, "Even though my illusions may be formidable but do you have to talk so loudly? Even though he may not hear you but any tiny disturbances in the presence of a powerful cultivator is enough to garner notice¡­"

    Xue Qianxue giggled softly, "You may not know about this. But he had purposely talk to save this Demoness Empress An Xuanji. But he tries not to make it too obvious."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    How the heck does she knows about this?

    He muttered, "I was just being careless, that''s all."

    Xue Qianxue simply smiled.

    Actually, Xue Qianxue is a really smart maiden and smarter than Ji Yuan had thought but she had carefully concealed it.

    She had never told Ji Yuan that she was aware that he had been peeping at her while she was bathing in the bath tub 100 years ago and that she had purposely dyeding out of her bath tub to see what he had wanted.

    If it was any other man, they would be dead already if they tried to peep at her.

    Also, when Ji Yuan had visited her Celestial Orthodox Sect 100 years ago, she had already recognized him while he was thinking how he could fool her.

    Xue Qianxue could tell that Ji Yuan was purposely alerting the masked Divine Messenger to himself rather than endangering the Demoness Empress An Xuanji.

    This was indeed true.

    Ji Yuan had purposely diverted the attention to himself but he had not thought that Xue Qianxue would make such a lucky guess so he had quickly denied it as his carelessness.

    He did not want his maidens to know him too well as he was fond of keeping a few of his trump cards against them.

    The masked Divine Messenger was astonished that there were a group of 7 that were hiding at the corner of the cave.

    Moreover, the only man in the group was able to deflect his profound attack so easily!

    And he was infuriated as he disyed his peaked 9th realm immortal profound aura, "Kneel in front of me now!"

    An oppressing and powerful pressure immediately descended upon everyone in the cave, forcing everyone to kneel with cold sweat except for Ji Yuan and his group.

    The reason why this oppressing pressure did not affect Ji Yuan and his group was because the Goddess Destiny had dissipated the oppressive pressure in front around her; to do so, she did not even have to disy her full profound might and she was merely using the 7th cultivation realm''s profound strength.

    In any case, even if she did not use her profound strength, the oppressing aura of this masked Divine Messenger won''t be able to affect her or Ji Yuan as they were high level cultivators.

    She had only released some of her profound strength to neutralize the oppressing pressure from Shui Xisi, the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei.

    The masked Divine Messenger appeared to be startled as he said coldly, "Who are you?!"

    He had thought that it was Ji Yuan that had neutralized his oppressive profound aura since he was the one that had also deflected his profound attack without any sweat.

    Ji Yuan could tell from the way his half-step divine sword was still vibrating from this masked Divine Messenger''s profound attack; this showed that his profound strength was actually above him when he could not stabilize his grip on his divine sword and when he had released his profound aura, this conclusion was proved immediately.

    He grinned and said, "I am the Nameless Cultivator Ji Yuan and the rest are mypanions. We are taking refuge in this cave when¡­"

    Ji Yuan startled to look at the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and her group of deste cultivators before saying, "When they have entered the cave. As we did not want to disturb them, we had decided to hide ourselves. And then you have arrived."

    He chuckled softly, "Surely you are not thinking of using us of spying upon you, am I right? Especially since we are in this ce first."

    The masked Divine Messenger hummed coldly, "What do you think then?"

    Ji Yuan said innocently, "Therefore you will let us go and we will also pretend that we have hear nothing today."

    The masked Divine Messenger had suddenly shed a half-step emperor divine sword all of a sudden as he said coldly, "Wrong! Why don''t you make another guess again?"

    With an emperor-step divine sword in the hands of this masked Divine Messenger, the profound pressure had suddenly double in strength, causing the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and her group of deste cultivators to bend even lower and even powerless as they broke into more cold sweat!

    But yet, nothing had happened to Ji Yuan and his group who continued to look just as normal and usual in front of the masked Divine Messenger!

    The masked Divine Messenger was astonished as he stared at Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny, "The two of you, I can''t tell your cultivation realm¡­"

 Chapter 1264 To Talk or to Fight?

    <h4>Chapter 1264 To Talk or to Fight? </h4>

    ?

    The masked Divine Messenger stared coldly at Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny before saying coldly, "Do you know about the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "s that. It is an uing cmity that will soon happen. Why, you will be there as well?"

    The masked Divine Messenger began to frown; this was a secret that only the immortals would be able to know; these two are immortals too?

    He thought: If they are 8th realm immortals then they would still be suppressed by me. Even a lower tier 9th realm immortal will also be affected by me. They should be middle to upper 9th realm immortals then¡­

    He answered coldly, "This, you don''t have to know. I am inclined to be generous today and I will let you go as long as you are willing to make an oath to the Heavenly Dao that you will not leak today''s matter to anyone."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "What if I don''t want to go?"

    This reply from Ji Yuan startled the masked Divine Messenger, the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and many of the deste cultivators.

    The masked Divine Messenger said angrily, "If it is a fight that you want, I shall grant it to you!"

    Ji Yuan quickly replied, "It isn''t that. I happen to be going to the Nine Abyss Realms and I hope that you will take me to that ce."

    The masked Divine Messengerughed jovially, "Then you have to find your way there yourself. I am afraid that I cannot help you."

    Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "Why don''t we make a deal. I help you to solve the hierographic name of the Great Deste Wyrm and you help me to enter the Nine Abyss Realms?"

    The masked Divine Messenger coldly asked Ji Yuan, "What is your business in the Nine Abyss Realms?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am a good friend of the Philosopher Goddess and I am going there to visit her."

    He didn''t reveal that he is actually going there to obtain the Divine Philosopher Stone.

    The masked Divine Messenger said coldly, "The Philosopher Goddess has no friends and she has never left the Nine Abyss Realms. Do you really think that I will believe in your deceits?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "Then you will never be able to know the hierographic name of the Great Deste Wyrm."

    He was only bluffing though and he was curious to know why the Divine Messenger had wanted to know the hierographic name of the Great Deste Wyrm.

    The masked Divine Messengerughed jovially, "Why should I believe you?"

    Ji Yuan said, "I can help you but it is whether you will be willing to believe me or not."

    The masked Divine Messenger hummed coldly, "Even if I believe you but I won''t take you to the Nine Abyss Realms. So, you can forget about it."

    Ji Yuan said, "Alright then. Then I shall change the condition."

    He then pointed at the kneeling Demoness Empress An Xuanji and said, "As long as you promise that you and your Nine Abyss Realms do not threaten their lives in the future again, I can help you. This is my new condition. But it is also my final condition. What do you think?"

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji gasped softly as she stared in the direction of Ji Yuan: He wants to protect all of us? But he is a human cultivator while we are deste cultivators¡­

    The masked Divine Messenger said, "I can promise you this. So, what is the hierographic name then?"

    Ji Yuan grinned as he said, "It is SANTA."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    She almost cursed him for insisting that it was SANTA instead of SATAN.

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were both looking quite sheepish when they had heard Ji Yuan; they know that he was only bluffing.

    As for the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, she was nodding and believing everything that Ji Yuan had said.

    The Goddess Destiny on the other hand also knows that Ji Yuan was bluffing but she could not believe where his confidence hade from?

    She could use her rod of destiny to augury the true meaning of the hierographic name of the Great Deste Wyrm but she had already used it when she was looking for a way to enter the Celestial Realm to look for Ji Yuan.

    In order to use her ck rod of destiny again, she had to wait for a thousand years.

    The masked Divine Messenger frowned, "How do I know if this is real? You can make an oath to the Heavenly Dao or to the Great Beyond Goddess?"

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I don''t know if it is real so it is for you to find out about this."

    The masked Divine Messenger: ¡­

    All of a sudden, the masked Divine Messenger said to the Demoness Empress An Xuanji and her group, "Leave this cave first."

    When he had said that, he had also withdrawn his oppressing profound aura that was suppressing them.

    The Demoness Empress An Xuanji and her group began to heave a soft sigh of relief when the suppressing pressure had suddenly been relieved from them.

    She took ast look at Ji Yuan and his group before hastily departed from the cave.

    Either she or her group had wanted to remain a second longer.

    When they had departed, the masked Divine Messenger erected his very own anti-sound barrier and dissipated the anti-sound barrier of the Demoness Empress An Xuanji.

    The masked Divine Messenger then turned to Ji Yuan and his group with a solemn look before he said coldly, "Now we can finally talk."

    Ji Yuan stolen a nce at the Goddess Destiny before he grinned back, "To talk or to fight?"

    The Goddess Destiny took a step back, much to the startled horror of Ji Yuan as though she was saying to him: If it is a fight then you can handle him alone because you are the one that had ruined my illusion array and causing me to be in disrepute in front of the others.

    The masked Divine Messenger seemed to smile behind his ghost mask, "Naturally it is to talk. I have a good way to prove if your guess is correct."

    Ji Yuan said curiously, "Oh?"

 Chapter 1265 The Sacred Oath

    <h4>Chapter 1265 The Sacred Oath</h4>

    ?The masked Divine Messenger said to Ji Yuan and his group, "I have a good way of proving if you are right in their guess."

    Ji Yuan chucked weakly, "And you have sent them away so that you can tell me what it is? Is it really so secretive?"

    The masked Divine Messenger smiled coldly, "Indeed you are not wrong to say that. But don''t you want to know why I want to know the hierographic name for?"

    Ji Yuanughed weakly, "This has got to do with proving if my guess is right, am I right to say so? And it also got to do with why you have sent the deste cultivators away too."

    The masked Divine Messengerughed aloud, "Right. You are smart and I like to deal with smart people."

    Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "If I don''t want to know the reason why then I don''t need to prove it, right?"

    The masked Divine Messenger said coldly, "This is not for you to decide¡­"

    Then he said, "I am really curious why there are so many human cultivators in this ce and that you even know about the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    Ji Yuan chuckled, "Naturally, I have heard about it from the manifestation of the Great Beyond Goddess. Is thismon knowledge?"

    He had made an intelligent guess that the immortals of the immortal realms had all received the same message by the manifestations of the Great Beyond Goddess.

    In order for his opponent not to second guess him, Ji Yuan had decided to take the offensive by saying. "I am more curious how did you know about this? Aren''t you from the Nine Abyss Realms and not from the Six Immortal Realms? How did you know about this?"

    The masked Divine Messenger answered coldly, "The immortals of the Nine Abyss Realms have also received the same message too¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted him, "And that is why you are here? To make preparations for the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods?"

    The masked Divine Messenger appeared to be startled for a while and Ji Yuan could see from his subtle hesitation that he may be right about his guess.

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "I am here for the same reason too. To make myself stronger before the uing cmity. Who knows if we may meet again at the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    He had quickly said that so that the Divine Messenger would not have the time to think and to question him.

    The masked Divine Messenger said slowly, "I am here to do the same too but it is under the divine will of my Philosopher Goddess."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "I am eager to meet her too."

    Anyang giggled in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Eager to meet her and to obtain the Divine Philosopher Stone from her.

    Xiang Li was also giggling: And to obtain the body of the Philosopher Goddess as well.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered to them in secret: Stop distracting me. Can''t you see that I am in the middle of an important talk. This talk is between life and death¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted him with a soft chuckle: My Big Brother will surely win! I don''t think he is stronger than the Great Demon God.

    Ji Yuan frowned: You know that we are below the deste mists now and I can''t muster or regain my profound strength as readily, right? Therefore, I have no advantages in this ce.

    Xiang Li protested immediately: But Maiden Sisi, the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei and the Goddess Destiny are all here too.

    Anyang pointed out: And you have Maiden Ling Feiyue to use yourbined sword profound art too.

    Xiang Li giggled: And Maiden Xue Qianxue''s battle goddess animus can also protect you.

    Ji Yuan decided to ignore the two of them for now.

    He turned to say to the masked Divine Messenger, "So, what do you want me to do to prove that my conjecture is correct?"

    The masked Divine Messenger said slowly, "Easy enough. Why don''t I take you to the ce where you can prove if you are right?"

    Ji Yuan quickly said, "Wait! What if I am wrong?"

    The masked Divine Messengerughed coldly, "Then you will surely die."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "And what if I am right? So what?"

    The masked Divine Messenger said to him, "If you are proven right then you shall able to obtain the Dark Heavens Eye."

    Ji Yuan asked curiously, "The Dark Heavens Eye? What is it used for?"

    The masked Divine Messenger hummed coldly, "This is not for you to know."

    All of a sudden, Ji Yuan was grinning. "You are not afraid that I will take this profound treasure for myself?"

    The masked Divine Messengerughed coldly, "I am afraid that you won''t be able to know how to use it. This is reason one. The second reason is, I have to asked all of you to make an oath not to take it for yourself."

    The oath of an immortal is sacred and unbreakable. Any immortal that breaks their own oath will receive a terrible bacsh that will kill them.

    Even if an immortal do not make an oath, their words are sacred and represent partially the heavenly dao. Breaking their words will also cause a bacsh and is detrimental to their future cultivations. In some cases, their cultivation may even decrease!

    For the celestial cultivators or any cultivators, they are still able to lie but it is detrimental to their future cultivation.

    But for their oaths to their soul sea, it is still as sacred as the immortals and they will even die when they break it.

    Ji Yuan took a look at his group and asked them, "Well, what do you think?"

    Shui Xisi said nonchntly, "I have no objections about it."

    Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue smiled to Ji Yuan as they said at the same time, "We will leave this matter to you to decide."

    Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei looked at Ji Yuan with a look of worship, "Master Ji Yuan, I will abide by your decision."

    The Goddess Destiny was also nodding, "I have no objections to this as well."

    Ji Yuan then said to the masked Divine Messenger, "Then you and your Nine Abyss Realms will not harm the deste cultivators that are in this cave earlier."

    The masked Divine Messenger nodded, "This is reasonable enough."

    In order for an oath to be effective, there must be an equivalent exchange.

    Making oaths of loyalty actually doesn''t affect the immortals as it will impede with the immortal''s restriction on cultivating the way of the heavenly dao and they won''t receive any bacsh for it.

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded before he returned his look to the masked Divine Messenger and said with his hand on his chest, "We promise you that we will not take Dark Heavens Eye for ourselves if we can deduce the correct hierographic name. This, I will make an oath to my soul sea in the name of the Heavenly Dao and the Great Beyond Goddess."

    The rest of his group quickly did the same as they made this sacred oath together.

    The masked Divine Messenger said, "I will represent the Nine Abyss Realms not to harm these deste cultivators that are here earlier for a period of 10 years. And I will not personally harm them for 10 years as well. That is, if they do not attack the Nine Abyssal Realms first."

    Ji Yuan frowned, "10 years?! Isn''t it too short? You seem to be adding a little too many conditions."

    The masked Divine Messenger said coldly to him, "This is good enough. I can''t stop any idental deaths by my Nine Abyss Realms and I can only represent myself. But this should keep them safe enough."

    Ji Yuan frowned before he extended his hands, "Alright then. Then let''s seal this oath with our fists."

    The masked Divine Messenger nodded as he hit Ji Yuan''s fist with his fist, "Let this sacred oath be sealed then."

    Then he looked satisfied as he took out an orb from his spatial storage belt, "Very well. I shall now take you to that ce now."

 Chapter 1266 The Black Death Mountains

    <h4>Chapter 1266 The ck Death Mountains</h4>

    ?The masked Divine Messenger had taken a blue crystal orb and he had immediately activated the transference array that was inside.

    "I am going to take you to another ce now."

    When he had said that, there was a blue circle that was around him.

    He said to Ji Yuan and his group, "Come into my transference array now."

    Xu Yifei slowly said to Ji Yuan, "This is a transference circle."

    Ji Yuan took a look at his group and nodded, "Let''s go then."

    And with that, they had walked forward into the blue circle that was around the masked Divine Messenger.

    This transference blue circle was actually no stranger to Xu Yifei and to her group that had used her Transference Circle before.

    However, this transference circle seemed to have a fixed location in ce and Xu Yifei had recognized that the location inside this transference circle had a runic name in it.

    She had naturally recognized it as end point of this transference circle.

    Xu Yifei actually had the ability to teleport them out of this ce and back to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect even without the Pangu Token.

    The difference though was that the Pangu Token was instantaneous.

    Likewise, the Goddess Destiny had also recognized the profound circle around the masked Divine Messenger as a transference circle as she was also capable of using one herself.

    But she pretended to be nonchnt about it.

    The masked Divine Messenger was actually looking intently at Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny as they had a cultivation realm that he could not decipher.

    Only immortals at the 9th realm upper realm could shield their cultivation realm from being read.

    Of course, the cultivators could use formidable profound treasures to shield their cultivation realm as well.

    Actually, Ji Yuan was only at the middle 9th false immortal realm and he could propel his cultivation realm to the upper 9th cultivation with the aid of his Deste Cherubim animus.

    In theory, he could not hide his cultivation realm from the masked Divine Messenger.

    However for Ji Yuan, his cultivation core had surpassed the middle 9th realm to the upper 9th realm previously and therefore, the cultivation benefits did not fade away.

    It did not fade away simply because Ji Yuan is the reincarnation of the True Devil God and every time he has reached a new attainment, he would receive the benefits of the cultivation height of that level even if his cultivation were to drop all of a sudden.

    Cultivators have to defy the heavens for their cultivation breakthrough and every time that they have breakthrough to a new cultivation realm, the element of luck is extremely heavy.

    That is why cultivators have to spend a vast amount of their cultivation fortunes and use a vast array of profound treasures to ensure that they will be able to sessfully have a breakthrough.

    No one is able to ensure that they will have 100% breakthrough, not ever.

    Over the years, Ji Yuan had always thought that he was lucky enough for his cultivation breakthrough as he watched many of his brothers perished in their cultivation breakthrough.

    He even had a pouch of lucky clovers to ensure that he would be lucky every time as he was dirt poor to afford the cultivation resources for his cultivation breakthrough.

    Ji Yuan was not the only cultivator with his lucky charms and it wasmon among the cultivators.

    That was the reason why all the high level cultivators consider themselves to be the blessed sons and daughters of the heavens, not because of their cultivation talent but because they have survived the numerous cultivation breakthroughs to be the saint and saintess of the Celestial Realm.

    But unlike them, Ji Yuan have a true god cultivation core, not a celestial or an immortal cultivation core.

    His cultivation breakthrough got nothing to do with luck but this was something that he did not know.

    It was extremely difficult to shatter his true god cultivation core during a cultivation breakthrough even if he was dirt poor!

    -

    -

    -

    The masked Divine Messenger had teleported them to a mountain ledge that overlooked a stormy ocean of pink mist and there were furious winds around them.

    In front of them was ridge across a dark mountain.

    The winds were so furious that the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xu Yifei could barely stabilize their footings.

    Luckily for them, the Goddess Destiny had quickly enveloped them with her profound aura.

    As for Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan, they were doing just fine in the wrath of the furious winds.

    Ji Yuan said with his profound voice as his normal voice was muted by the sounds of the furious winds, "Where are we now? And what do you want me to do to prove that I am right?"

    The masked Divine Messenger said coldly and he had also raised his profound voice to answer Ji Yuan as he echoed, "In front of us is the ck Death Mountains where the GreatDeste Wyrm is¡­"

    "Wait a minute!" Ji Yuan began to protest immediately as he interrupted him. "I didn''t say that I will help you to fight the GreatDeste Wyrm."

    This masked Divine Messenger was powerful enough and even more powerful than the Sword Immortal Teng Haijian which Ji Yuan had previously fought. But he seemed to fear this Great Deste Wyrm so this deste profound monster has to be even more powerful than him.

    That was the reason why Ji Yuan had protested immediately.

    The masked Divine Messenger smiled coldly as he said to Ji Yuan, "Don''t worry. The Great Deste Wyrm is in a slumber now and he won''t be awakened for the time being. All you need to do is to arrange the hierographic name in his ck Death Mountains correctly and you will be able to gain ess to his mirage portal in secret. Once you are inside, you will be able to help me to obtain the Dark Heavens Eye."

    Ji Yuan frowned with understanding now, "But if I fail to do so, I will awake the sleeping Great Deste Wyrm, am I right? And then I will die for failing to deduce the hierographic name correctly?

    The masked Divine Messenger smiled coldly as he praised Ji Yuan, "You are indeed smart. Indeed you are right about this."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

 Chapter 1267 The Fearsome Great Desolate Wyrm

    Chapter 1267 The Fearsome Great Deste Wyrm

    ??The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan, "I will go with you. But the rest should stay behind in this ce¡­"

    As she said this, her eyes were looking at the furious strong winds that were across the ridge that spanned 30 miles across the ocean of deste mists below.

    Ji Yuan nodded and agreed with her; he could see that the winds were already so furious in this ce and it was even more powerful over the ridge as there was no mountains to shelter them from the furious tempests.

    There was nothing Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue or Xu Yifei could say to Ji Yuan not to stay behind as they could barely stay their foots if it was not for the Goddess Destiny.

    They slowly said to Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny, "Be careful."

    Even the Holy Maiden Ling Ya was weakly saying to Ji Yuan, "You ought to be very careful¡­ run and don''t fight the Great Deste Wyrm."

    Shui Xisi did not want to stay but she forced herself to say, "I will stay behind to look after our group."

    With her profound strength, she could help the group to maintain their footing if a sudden fierce tempest would toe all of a sudden.

    The masked Divine Messenger smiled coldly to Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny, "If you got it wrong and awaken the Great Deste Wyrm, I will get yourpanions out of here. Also, I will honor my pact not to hurt the deste cultivators for 10 years."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly, "This is most assuring¡­"

    He was actually being sarcastic when he was saying this.

    The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan, "Let''s go and prove that your conjection is right."

    Shui Xisi could not resist saying to Ji Yuan, "Remember it is SATAN and not SANTA."

    Ji Yuanughed at Shui Xisi''s words, "I am right and you are wrong."

    Shui Xisi: ¡­

    And with that, Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny were now walking across the ridge.

    Because of the strong winds in this ce, flying was impossible.

    Ji Yuan had used his profound strength to exercise the thousand weights fall to glue himself onto the ground as he walked lest he would be thrown away by the powerful winds.

    The long ridge across to the ck Death Mountains was not sheltered by any mountains and was in the open. Therefore, the winds across the ridge were several times more powerful where they had firstnded.

    Also, the trek across the ridge was slow and tedious even though 30 miles were not exactly a long journey.

    When Ji Yuan was at the distance of 10 miles, the fog had swallowed up him and the Goddess Destiny from view.

    Ling Feiyue sighed softly when she saw that Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny had disappeared from view when a fog had suddenly appeared.

    Xue Qianxue said, "They will be fine. It is only 30 miles and they will be across in no time. I am more worried about Ji Yuan''s conjecture."

    Shui Xisi frowned, "He didn''t even believe me andugh at me instead¡­"

    The masked Divine Messenger had heard them and he wasughing coldly, "30 miles? You are all wrong. It is actually 300 miles due to the distortions of space across this ridge. If it is only 30 miles, do you think that we will be able to escape from the Great Deste Wyrm in time to use the Transference Circle?"

    Shui Xisi hummed coldly, "Surely that Great Deste Wyrm will also have trouble getting across the ridge to us. The winds here are really too furious even a deste profound beast to be around."

    The masked Divine Messengerughed jovially, "Do you really think so? Do you know how big is that Great Deste Wyrm?"

    "How big it is?" Ling Feiyue asked him curiously while Xue Qianxue and Xu Yifei were also curiously looking at the Divine Messenger with the ghost mask.

    The masked Divine Messenger hummed coldly, "It is a mile across. That is how big it is!"

    Shui Xisi was startled; the biggest deste beasts that she had seen was around 332.8 m long and was called the Great Nimitz Levithan.

    A mile is almost 1610m long, and almost 5 times as long as the Great Nimitz Levithan that she had seen.

    As for Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xu Yifei, they could barely even imagine a profound beast that is 100m long as most of the veryrge profound beasts were only 30m long.

    Shui Xisi had certainly seen monstrous profound beasts that were almost 50m long while she was in the Hollow World with Ji Yuan and these profound beasts were like 10th rank profound beasts.

    She began to stammer, "What is the rank of this Great Deste Wyrm?"

    The masked Divine Messenger smiled coldly as he answered her, "10th rank epic deste profound beast."

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Xu Yifei: !!!!!!

    They were all stunned by this revtion!

    Shui Xisi stammered with shock, "Epic profound beast?! Then they can''t win even if the Goddess Destiny is around¡­"

    The masked Divine Messenger smirked as he added further, "A monstrous monster this size weighs a million tons. Do you think that the winds here will be able to affect it? In just a few blinks of an eye, this Great Deste Wyrm will be able to reach us even if it is 300 miles across this ridge.

    Shui Xisi, Ling Feiyue, Xu Yifei and Xue Qianxue were all forced to agree with him.

    The only maiden that was not surprised was actually the Left Holy Maiden Ling Ya as she slowly said, "The Great Deste Wyrm is the lord of this underworld deste domain which we called the Great Chaldean Dark Domain. He is the harbinger of numerous cmities in the Chaldean Dark Domain for as long as we can remember his existence. In fact, he is said to be millions of years old."

    This stunned the 4 maidens who were listening to her.

    The masked Divine Messenger smirked coldly, "I would rather fight this Ji Yuan and that maiden that you called the Goddess Destiny than this Great Deste Wyrm. You have no idea how powerful an epic deste monster is?"

    Shui Xisi said solemnly, "I do know. A mythical profound beast of the same realm is almost the same as our cultivation realm while an epic profound beast exceeded the strongest of our cultivation realm known. This 10th rank epic deste profound beast should rival that of a true divinity in terms of strength."

    When she had said that, the other 4 maidens which included the Holy Maiden Ling Ya had all turned ashen at this news.

    The masked Divine Messenger hummed coldly, "Now you know why I am staying here and not there?"

 Chapter 1268 Ji Yuan and Destiny

    Chapter 1268 Ji Yuan and Destiny

    ??The ridge was actually quite broad, measuring 10m in wide and it looked like a long bridge that spanned across the ocean of deste mists to the ck Death Mountains that was ahead of them.

    Ji Yuan and the Goddess Destiny were now using their profound strength to walk across the ridge as the strong winds blew into them and ever always threatening to blow them below the deste mists below.

    Ji Yuan felt as though he was walking into a hurricane and he was muttering, "It is impossible for even saints to reach the ck Heart Mountains and also, this freaking ridge is actually more than 30 miles long!"

    The Goddess Destiny smiled gently to Ji Yuan and she was also looking coyly at him, "It seems to be several hundred miles long. Our spirit perception got distorted by the space distortion when we are looking at it from afar."

    She had to admit that she got fooled by it too.

    But she actually did not mind about it as she was actually hoping that this trek with Ji Yuan wouldst forever.

    It was because there was only Ji Yuan and her that were alone in this stone ridge now; it was as though they were talking a romantic walk together.

    The Goddess Destiny looked very blissful as they walked together even though they were not holding hands.

    Ji Yuan was frowning to himself: Howe the Goddess Destiny isn''t feeling frustrated by the strong winds and the long distance to the ck Death Mountains? She must have regretteding with me¡­

    All of a sudden, his sharp eyes caught her long skirt that was lifting up by the strong winds and his golden eyes were shing to her naked white thighs.

    In fact he got distracted and wondered what her panties would look like, causing him to be swept down into the red and pink deste mists that were below the ridge.

    The Goddess Destiny saw that Ji Yuan was fumbling as she gasped to hold him with her profound aura to envelop over him.

    "Are you alright? You aren''t that weak, right?"

    Ji Yuan protested immediately as he hated to be called weak by anyone, especially a maiden, "Of course I am alright. I was just doing a little experiment, that''s all. Even if you don''t help me, I won''t fall over too."

    The Goddess Destiny curiously looked at him, "What kind of experiment are you doing?"

    Xiang Li was giggling in Ji Yuan''s soul sea: Big Brother, tell her that you are peeping at her panties!

    Anyang chuckled: If you are a man, you ought to tell her the truth.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He said to the two of them: Howe the two of you are so active nowadays? Aren''t you heart broken that your emperor-step divine swords are now broken? Shouldn''t you spend your time to mend your broken emperor-step divine swords so that I can use it as my weapons?

    Xiang Li protested immediately: Big Brother, it is almost mended now.

    Anyang was also sheepishly saying: That''s right. Almost ready to be used now.

    Ji Yuan asked them with a frown: So, what is thepletion rate now?

    Xiang Li giggled: 40%

    Anyang chuckled sheepishly too: 60%

    Ji Yuan almost fainted: Xiang Li, what have you been doing?! Why you have such a big disparity with Anyang?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: My divine sword is more badly damaged than Anyang, that''s why.

    Ji Yuan frowned: I remember that Anyang''s divine sword is in a more badly damaged state than yours.

    There was no reply from Xiang Li anymore as she disappeared into the ocean of spiritual sea.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    "What sort of experiment are you doing?" The Goddess Destiny asked again.

    When she saw that Ji Yuan was quiet all of a sudden, she asked again, not knowing that Ji Yuan was having a heated argument with Xiang Li and Anyang.

    Actually Ji Yuan was purposely trying to avoid this question as he could not tell the Goddess Destiny that he was being distracted by her beautiful jaded legs earlier and he was trying to peep at her panties.

    He did not want to die yet, especially from a powerful immortal such as the Goddess Destiny.

    Ji Yuan is not exactly afraid of the Goddess Destiny as the true gods have a special restriction in the Celestial Realm and they won''t be able to recover their profound strength so readily. So he actually has the advantage here.

    In fact, he had thought that his disparity with the Goddess Destiny was not exactly that great and that she was just as strong as Yun Chi and Ding Xiaoxiao.

    He actually did not know that Destiny had actually be a true divinity when she was back.

    Actually Destiny did reveal herself as a True Divinity in front of Ji Yuan, but Ji Yuan was under the impression that she was just marking up her cultivation realm as it was prettymon to do so.

    Even half-step True Divinity like the Great Demon God would call themselves as Divinities instead of half-step 10th immortal cultivation realm.

    To be a half-step 10th immortal cultivation realm is actually almost the same as a peaked 9th realm cultivation realm and it means that they actually haven''t attain to the true 10th immortal cultivation realm yet.

    In front of Ji Yuan, the Goddess Destiny is always portraying herself as a weaker immortal maiden so Ji Yuan actually did not know how strong the Goddess Destiny really is.

    In fact, she didn''t even call herself as the Great Goddess Destiny even though she can rightfully im this as her immortal title.

    But to Destiny, she did not care about it as she isn''t a celestial immortal and this is what the celestial immortal will call themselves after they have reached a certain immortal cultivation.

    Destiny was the Chaos Sovereign Empress of the Chaos Immortals and she had given up that title to be the Great Oracle Destiny instead.

    Well, she is still the Chaos Sovereign Empress now after she was caught returning to the Entropy Immortal Realm but she had disappeared without a word again.

    It was because she wanted to look for Ji Yuan above anything else.

    She just could not forget the True Devil God.

    The only time that Destiny had attacked Ji Yuan was inside the Great Oracle Gate and even then, she had restricted herself.

    So to JI Yuan, she was not as strong as Yun Chi or Ding Xiaoxiao.

    One must know that even the immortals have a 3, 6, 9 in their rankings.

    No matter how he had looked at the serene Goddess Destiny, she don''t look strong at all with her ck staff.

    Ji Yuan pretended to say righteously, "I''ve thought that I have seen something in the deste mists with my sharp eyes but it seems that I was mistaken."

    The Goddess Destiny sighed softly, "Is that so?"

    There was a look of disappointment in her beautiful and woeful eyes that Ji Yuan was not even paying her any attention.

    While she was saying so to him, a sneaky Ji Yuan was looking at her curved bosoms and butts while pretending to look as righteous as possible.

    The Goddess Destiny lowered her nces to the ground as she said slowly to Ji Yuan, "I hope that you didn''t forget that we have a betrothal agreement that is between us, am I right? You say that you can give our rtionship a try."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly remembered that he had indeed said that.

    That fateful night, he was running after the Goddess Destiny to look for her.

    Then he had bumped into many others and ended up trying to look for Shui Xisi instead.

    And then he had met with the Great God Pangu and was sent to this ce instead.

    Ji Yuan pretended to say with a straight face, "I did say that I am willing to give us a try but I never say that we can be together."

    Then he said with great righteousness, "We have to leave this to fate. As you know, the matters of the heart cannot be forced. As I had said, I don''t remember signing the betrothal agreement with you¡­"

    There was a sudden woeful look that was on Destiny''s almost teary eyes when she had heard Ji Yuan.

    Even Xiang Li and Anyang were covering their faces while thinking of jumping out of his soul sea to p him.

 Chapter 1269 Ji Yuan holds Destinys hand

    Chapter 1269 Ji Yuan holds Destiny''s hand

    ??Destiny was suddenly looking with woeful eyes on Ji Yuan, "Do you really meant what you have just said?"

    Ji Yuan put on a straight face as he tried to say with great seriousness, "Even though I don''t remember what I did when I was drunk but I am also a gentleman of the sword. I guess that I have no other choice but to ept what I have signed and ept this betrothal agreement that is between us."

    The Goddess Destiny was startled, "Real-ly?"

    Ji Yuan nodded, "Really. Moreover, you are really a likeable maiden. So, why not?"

    The Goddess Destiny was looking blissful all of a sudden as she looked at nkly at Ji Yuan¡­

    Ji Yuan was also grinning in his heart; he had purposely made her heart sumbed so that he could alleviate her up again. In this way, she would better cherish him and he would be her lord.

    Anyang had heard Ji Yuan''s thoughts alright as she said weakly: This is totally unnecessary, you know. She likes you¡­

    Xiang Li giggled as she asked Ji Yuan: If it is an ugly maiden, will you still ept the betrothal agreement?

    Ji Yuan answered immediately with a loud chuckle in his soul sea: Of course not! Never! Dream on! No way!

    Anyang: ¡­.

    Ji Yuan had suddenly caught hold of Destiny''s hand, startling her with his gesture. "Let''s go!"

    He was purposely trying to take advantage of her by touching her silken and smooth hands while saying quite righteously, "Since we have a betrothal agreement now, do you agree that we ought to give it a try to work out our new rtionship?"

    The Goddess Destiny asked him, "You won''t say anything such as breaking the betrothal agreement and bing stronger than me in 3 years so that you will break this betrothal agreement?"

    Ji Yuan frowned, "Why should I do that?"

    He could not resist adding with a soft chuckle, "I am already stronger than you now."

    The Goddess Destiny: ¡­

    He is too shameless¡­

    Just like that, for the next 5 hours, they began to hold hands together as they crossed the ridge slowly until finally they had reached the ck Death Mountains that was on the other side.

    The ck Death Mountains was extremely tall and steep as it rose from the oceans of the pinkish deste mists that were around them.

    Ahead of them was a towering twin ck mountains that looked like a huge gate that towered over 100m in height.

    It was massive and imposing to say the very least.

    However, at this moment, Ji Yuan was not thinking about this yet and he was thinking of another matter instead.

    Ji Yuan sighed heavily toin to Destiny, "What a waste of my precious profound strength to walk in such a tiring manner up to this point."

    The Goddess Destiny merely smiled but she was feeling a little awkward in her heart as she could cross this ridge almost instantaneous and taking Ji Yuan along with her but she had enjoyed the walk with him instead.

    She asked him instead to distract him, "Do you think that your conjecture of the hieragraphic rune name is right?"

    Ji Yuanughed aloud, "Of course not! I was randomly guessing only. Haha¡­"

    The Goddess Destiny was stunned, "But you are so sure in front of Maiden Shui Xisi?"

    Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "That is because she sounds so sure too but she is also making a guess as me."

    The Goddess Destiny: ¡­

    The two of them...

    She asked again, "Since you don''t know the answer, then won''t we have to confront that Great Deste Wyrm instead?"

    Ji Yuan grinned to her, "That is the point, am I right?"

    "What do you mean?" The Goddess Destiny asked him curiously.

    Ji Yuan exined with more grins, "The whole point is to just obtain that Dark Heavens Eyes, am I right? Also, whether we can guess it right or wrong, that Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realms will spare those deste cultivators. So, all I need to do is just to defeat this Great Deste Wyrm and to obtain the Dark Heavens Eyes. Isn''t this as simple as that?"

    The Goddess Destiny frowned, "You are putting yourself at risk to save those deste cultivators? It is far easier if we join hands to defeat that Divine Messenger instead."

    Ji Yuan grinned, "That is because I have a good and merciful heart¡­"

    Xiang Li giggled immediately: That is because Big Brother likes that Demoness Empress An Xuanji and hence decides to aid her, am I right?

    Anyang sighed as she muttered: Isn''t this so obvious? What good and merciful heart. You can fool the Goddess Destiny but not us.

    Ji Yuan immediately protested to them in his soul sea: Stop listening to my innermost thoughts. How can I even fool the two of you when the two of you are like my heart demons that can listen to my thoughts?

    The Goddess Destiny looked knowingly at Ji Yuan, "Indeed you have a good heart¡­"

    She was thinking of the time when the True Devil God had sacrificed himself to save the 6 Immortal Realms from the Dark Void Universe; the Great Beyond Goddess had told her everything.

    This time round, the Goddess Destiny was determined that not to let Ji Yuan dies again.

    The Great Beyond Goddess had said to her, "Ji Yuan is birthed from the purest essence of the Dark Void Universe, he may hold the key to stop this great uing cmity that will befall us in the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    When the Great Beyond Goddess had said this to her, there was a grieving look that were in her beautiful golden eyes as she slowly added. "Many of my kind have once died inside the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods."

    Ji Yuan had suddenly asked the Goddess Destiny, "You are thinking about something?"

    The Goddess Destiny smiled, "I was just thinking that it would be better if your conjecture is right about the hierographic runes. Then we can avoid a nasty fight with the Great Deste Wyrm instead."

    JI Yuan chuckled, "How powerful can the Great Deste Wyrm be? Haha¡­ I can handle him alone."

    The Goddess Destiny did not know where Ji Yuan''s confidence hade from as she could sense a powerful profound presence inside the ck Death Mountains.

    She said to Ji Yuan softly, "Even if we can win against the Great Deste Wyrm, aren''t you worried that the Divine Messenger of the Nine Abyss Realm won''t attack us? He never says he won''t attack us and may take advantage of our exhausted state after the fight with the Great Deste Wyrm to deal with us. This is killing three birds with one stone."

    The Goddess Destiny was referring to the Divine Messenger obtaining the Dark Heavens Eyes, killing the Great Deste Wyrm and their group at the same time.

    Ji Yuan frowned as he began to rub his chin, "I''ve actually never thought this far¡­"

 Chapter 1270 Ji Yuan Promise to Protect Destiny

    <h4>Chapter 1270 Ji Yuan Promise to Protect Destiny</h4>

    ?Ji Yuan and Destiny cautiously crossed the two ck pirs of mountains that were in front of them.

    Soon they saw that they were within an encirclement of ck mountains all around there, sheltering them from the strong winds.

    This empty expanse of space within the ck mountains were about 10 miles wide inside.

    Ji Yuan was surprised that such a t terrain could exist within the expanses of ck mountains around them.

    At the same time, they could see gigantic golden runic carving that was deeply engraved in the ck mountains all around them.

    And in the middle of this t terrain was an imposing blue portal that measured a mile in height and width!

    Ji Yuan gulped at the size of this blue portal, "I think I have forgotten to ask the Divine Messenger or the Holy Maiden Ling Ya how big exactly this so call Great Deste Wyrm really is. From the size of this portal, it really seems monstrous."

    Ji Yuan was immediately apprehensive because if the deste monster was toorge, he would be unable to deal much harm to it.

    Size does matter.

    Just imagine an ant trying to kill a human.

    The bigger a deste monster is, it will be able to absorb more damage and shock.

    Ji Yuan suddenly felt like he was the ant now.

    All the cultivators love to boast how mighty their profound arts are, able to level entire mountains ands but they would be afraid of a mere lightning bolt from the heavens.

    The size of the earth is so huge that lightning bolts can be easily grounded harmlessly.

    No matter how powerful a cultivator is, they are not going to destroy a mountain even though the cultivators like to say that their profound arts are able to demolish the mountains and overthrown the oceans; this was just an expression and an exaggeration to mean that their profound arts are really very powerful.

    However, the bad trantors machine tranted the ''Demolish the Mountains and Overthrown the Oceans'' phrase as literally, causing subsequent cultivation stories to be more and more exaggerated.

    At this moment, Ji Yuan really wished that he could ''Demolish the Mountains and Overthrown the Oceans'' with his One Dividing Sword if he were to encounter the Great Deste Wyrm.

    The Goddess Destiny said to him, "If I am not wrong then using this blue portal correctly will lead us to where the ck Heavens Eye is. That is, if you are gather to piece together the golden runes that are around us to form the correct key to use the profound formation that is within that blue portal."

    Ji Yuan said her with an awkward look, "And what if I am not using it correctly?"

    The Goddess Destiny said matter of fact to Ji Yuan, "Then we may end up alerting the Great Deste Wyrm to our presence."

    Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he said, "Well. Maybe that Great Deste Wyrm is somewhere far, far away now. We don''t see him at all."

    The Goddess Destiny said to Ji Yuan, "This you are wrong. I can sense the powerful presence of this Great Deste Wyrm and it seems to be in a slumber now."

    Ji Yuan was startled, "You can sense it? Where is he now? And how powerful is this Great Deste Wyrm? Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"

    Destiny said nonchntly, "I didn''t sense him until we are near the ck Death Mountains. Also, I didn''t know how powerful he is until we are in this ce. This is because these mountains here contain his profound signatures¡­"

    Ji Yuan asked her as he interrupted her panicky, "I didn''t know your divine sense is so formidable to be able to sense his profound signatures from these ck mountains that are so far away. So, how strong is he?"

    Destiny smiled, "I am a true god, that''s why. My divine sense is naturally better than you¡­."

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: Do you have to say how weak I am and that I am only a half-immortalpare to a true immortal like you?

    Destiny continued, "If I am not wrong, then this Great Deste Wyrm should be a 11th rank epic deste profound beast."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He weakly said, "You got to be kidding me, right? I know how powerful Sisi''s Augustina phoenix really is but she merely a 9th rank epic phoenix. This is a 11th rank epic profound monster?! We are truly screwed now."

    Destiny asked him, "You aren''t expecting this?"

    Ji Yuan answered weakly, "I was expecting a 9th rank profound monster and at most a 9th rank epic profound monster. I can''t even imagine a 10th rank profound monster and this freaking monster is a 11th rank epic profound monster. We are totally screwed now."

    Destiny said nonchntly, "Not so if we can decipher the runic formation of that blue portal to obtain the ck Heavens Eye."

    Ji Yuan said weakly, "You know this is harder than striking a lottery, right?"

    Destiny smiled to him, "Fear not. I am here."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Have you ever considered the fact that we may not be able to defeat this Great Deste Wyrm?"

    Destiny smiled, "I didn''t, of course."

    Ji Yuan was startled but delighted at the same time, "That means that you have the confidence that we will be able to take care of this Great Deste Wyrm then?"

    Destiny smiled coyly at him, "The reason why I didn''t consider this is because you didn''t consider it first and all my confidence hase from you instead."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He really felt like fainting on the spot now.

    Just as he was about to ask her about their chances of odds against this Great Deste Wyrm, Destiny began to smile at him and said to him.

    "With you around, I feel at ease. Surely you are able to protect your betrothed maiden, am I right?"

    When Ji Yuan had heard her, he put on a straight face but gave Destiny an awkward look as he patted his chest. "Leave it to your man to settle this Great Deste Wyrm for you."

    Destiny smiled to him, "Then I shall take a backseat while you settle this Great Deste Wyrm alone then."

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    She can''t be serious at this poor timing, right?

    Destiny smiled coyly at him, giving him a flush look, "You will promise to protect me, am I right?"

    Ji Yuan awkwardly replied, "I will surely protect you. This is a promise..."

    He had actually thought that it would be wiser to run away first than making a direct confrontation. But in front of an alluring Destiny who was looking so coyly at him as though he was her hero, he as forced to take the bitter pill of promising to protect her instead.

    Xiang Li and Anyang were both saying with great disbelief: Prideses before the fall...

    Ji Yuan weakly said to them: I know and you don''t have to remind me. We are screwed up now...

 Chapter 1271 There are 100 Golden Runes?!

    <h4>Chapter 1271 There are 100 Golden Runes?!</h4>

    ?Ji Yuan said to Destiny with a straight face, "Don''t worry. Leave it everything to me."

    With that, he took an awkward look as he walked to the towering blue portal and Destiny followed closely behind him.

    Then he took a look at the ck mountains that were far away and he saw many big golden runes engraved on the mountains.

    Ji Yuan gulped as he tried to check which of the golden runes would fit the word S-A-N-T-A.

    He thought: These are the 5 words, right?

    However there were a hundred golden runes that were scattered on the ck mountains around him.

    He thought that if he was a cultivation hero in the cultivation story then he would be able to solve it instantly because he was the MC. And he don''t even need to think about it.

    But the reality hits him hard.

    He did not even know which of the runes actually represented the word S-A-N-T-A.

    In fact, he had thought that all he needed to do was to identify 5 golden runes. The one with the repeated rune would be the letter A.

    Destiny asked him, "Well, are you ready to enter this blue portal now?"

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "Wait. You just cause me to lose my focus. I need to restart from zero again. I was so close to identifying the 5 golden runes. s."

    Destiny: ¡­

    Ji Yuan began to sweat coldly as he darted his golden eyes as he stared at therge golden runes to memorize it.

    There were indeed 100 golden runes in this ce and it took him some time tomit to memory.

    He turned awkwardly to Destiny and said to her, "I need to meditate for a little while to gain an insight first¡­"

    He actually meant to say he needed some time to try to figure out which were the correct runes instead.

    Usually, the MCs in the cultivation stories would magically gain an ''insight'' to reveal to them a solution.

    All he needed now was to search his vast cultivation knowledge that was in his mind that he had cumted in his long years of cultivation for an ''insight''.

    But there was a little problem though.

    He had actually note across any of the golden runes before in his life so how could it even magically appear in the vast cultivation library of his mind?

    Xiang Li giggled to him: Big Brother, I am afraid that 90% of your ''vast'' cultivation library isn''t about cultivation.

    Anyang covered her face awkwardly as she knows that Ji Yuan was only trying to put on an image of a wise cultivator in front of the Goddess Destiny.

    Ji Yuan frowned to Xiang Li: Shup up, Xiang Li! Do you know that you have just distracted me from my thoughts? I was on the verge of gaining an insight!

    Xiang Li giggled: Is that so?

    Ji Yuan pointed out: That golden rune on my right side that resemble a circle. Don''t you think that it looks like a Sun?

    Xiang Li asked curiously: So what?

    Ji Yuan chuckled: Just think about it. In our celestialnguage, the sun starts with the letter S. It may be a S instead!

    Xiang Li looked very impressed with Ji Yuan: Woah! I didn''t think about it. Big Brother, you may be right!

    Anyang frowned: My foot. This is definitely not correct.

    Ji Yuan protested immediately: My dear Anyang, I do have a chance of getting it right. So you can''t say that I am wrong.

    Anyang smiled bitterly: You have 4 in 100 chances of picking the correct rune. And you have also 1 in 5 chances of arranging it correctly. Do you know your odds?

    Ji Yuan frowned: 50%?

    Anyang: ¡­

    Ji Yuanughed jovially: It is either right or wrong, you know.

    He had actually said that as the maths was too mind blogging for him to count.

    Ji Yuan said to Anyang and Xiang Li: Don''t worry about this. Sooner orter, I will gain an insight and will figure out the hierographic name.

    Xiang Li asked him: How long then? 100 years?

    Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Xiang Li.

    He didn''t even get struck at arranging the correct sequence to the hierographic name but he has got struck in trying to figure out which of the golden runes to use as he needed the imagery of the runes to gain ess to the profound array that was within the blue portal.

    Ji Yuan muttered to himself: You know. Why made this portal soplicated and set a dumb password to it¡­

    Xiang Li interrupted him: It is to guard against thieves like my Big Brother.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    The Goddess Destiny had suddenly said to Ji Yuan, "You are still not entering the portal?"

    Ji Yuan weakly looked at the Goddess Destiny, "I have barely even started on my insight."

    The Goddess Destiny slowly pointed at various directions as she spoke, "This is S. This is A. This is T. And this is N."

    The golden runes that she had picked were all weird symbols and she did not pick the circle symbol.

    Ji Yuan was startled, "Are you sure about this?"

    Destiny smiled, "I am sure about it."

    Ji Yuan pretended to put on a straight face as he said, "That is exactly the same sentiments that I have. I have picked the same exact golden runes too. It is just that I am trying to confirm if these golden runes are the correct ones. Now that you have said it, it double confirms my doubts. We really think alike. Hahaha¡­"

    Anyang, Xiang Li: ¡­

    The Goddess Destiny smiled with a shy look at him, "That is¡­ good that we are able to think alike. So, we can enter the portal now?"

    Ji Yuanughed awkwardly, "Of course! Let''s go inside now!"

    But secretly, he was smiling bitterly because he had not figure out the sequence to the hierographic runes yet.

 Chapter 1272 The Black Death Mountains Profound Array

    Chapter 1272 The ck Death Mountain''s Profound Array

    Destiny asked Ji Yuan before he had entered the towering blue portal, "Ji Yuan, are you sure that you are able to do it?"

    Ji Yuan answered her with a confident look, "Of course! I never do things unless I have the great confidence that I will be able to do it."

    He neglected to mention that he was usually very cautious except when it touched his manly pride.

    In front of Destiny, he wanted to impress her because she was a immortal goddess and it served his pride to do so.

    Anyang warned him: Don''t make it end up serving you right for trying to salvage your pride instead. If you don''t know, just say so.

    Ji Yuan frowned: No cultivation hero will ever say they don''t know. They just figure out at the very minute.

    Anyang asked him: For example?

    Ji Yuan pondered quickly before he answered proudly: For example, there is this cultivation hero Yun Che that always challenge everyone that is stronger than him and go suiciding. But always, at the veryst minute, he will surely power up and gain mysterious powers that will aid him¡­

    Anyang chuckled: I know that story. His maidens always end up saving him for some reasons and all the readers of that story always end up vomit blood because of his rashness¡­

    Ji Yuan interrupted her: That isn''t the point. The point is that he always ends up in the right ce and at the right time.

    Anyang and Xiang Li chuckled at the same time as they said almost together: Like now?

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly: Yeah. Like now¡­

    And with that, he had taken a reluctant foot into the towering shimmering portal that was a mile in height.

    Destiny quickly followed behind him as she said to him, "Ji Yuan, what''s wrong? You don''t look alright."

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "I am perfectly alright. In fact, soon you will know how genius I am."

    Destiny smiled to him, "I am sure that you are a genius for sure."

    Ji Yuan felt manly after hearing Destiny praise for him and began to step in boldly into the shimmering portal.

    Now the portal had not been activated yet and Ji Yuan could see that they were in a ck spatial space with many profound circles around him.

    These profound circles were actually made out of many white and gold symbols that swirled very fast around him and Destiny, making it look like a continuous white and gold circle.

    There were 5 profound circles around him.

    Destiny smiled to him and said, "Now you have to stop the symbol at the life gate for each circle. By getting the correct symbols, we will be able to use this portal."

    Ji Yuan nodded but secretly he was asking Xiang Li and Anyang in his soul sea: Erm, can you neutralize this profound array for me?

    Anyang shook her head: This is an immortal array and is too strong for us to neutralize.

    Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, you have to depend on yourself this time.

    Ji Yuan: ¡­

    He muttered weakly: Then can anyone of you tell me where the life gate is?

    Xiang Li giggled softly: I don''t know!

    Anyang weakly said: We don''t study these things as we can''t use the profound arrays. Profound arrays need plenty of soul power and we are particr weak in it.

    Ji Yuan muttered weakly to them: Thanks for letting me know¡­

    He turned to Destiny with an awkward look, "Erm, where is the life gate?"

    Destiny was startled, "You don''t know?"

    Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared nkly at Destiny, "I''ve thought that I only need to arrange the hierographic runes into the correct sequence and then I can obtain the Dark Heavens Eye?"

    Destiny looked at him with a perplexed look, "That''s right. Isn''t it what you are doing now?"

    Ji Yuan answered, "But this is moreplicated than I''ve thought."

    Destiny looked at him queerly, "Which is theplicated part?"

    Ji Yuan said awkwardly, "For example, where is the life gate of the first circle?"

    Destiny was startled for a while before she looked at him with a weird look, "This is the basic part of the formation arrays. Don''t tell me that you don''t know?"

    Ji Yuan answered awkwardly, "I happen to be extremely good in all kinds of cultivation except for arrays and formations."

    Destiny: ¡­

    Destiny: ¡­

    Destiny: ¡­

    She then pointed in the northeast direction, "The life gate is at the northeast direction. As soon as the circle with the symbol whirled near it, you can use your soul power to halt it. If it is the correct symbol then the first circle will stop and we can proceed to the second circle¡­"

    Ji Yuan interrupted, "So the life gate of the second circle is also at the same direction?"

    Destiny muttered weakly, "No, it is over at the Southeast direction. But let''s solve the 1st circle first before we go to the 2nd circle."

    Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "About that 1st circle¡­ can you pinpoint the direction of the life gate that is at the northeast direction for me? This is too vague¡­"

    Destiny weakly interrupted him, "I think you doesn''t even know anything about profound arrays at all."

    Ji Yuan suggested to her, "Erm, why don''t I tell you the symbol and you do it for us? This will be much easier."

    Destiny slowly nodded as she looked with some amusement at Ji Yuan, "Alright then¡­ so what is the first symbol?"

    Ji Yuan pondered for a while.

    Either SANTA or SATAN has to start with a S.

    So if he picks the Symbol S, he can''t be too wrong about this since both Sisi and his guess are both S.

    They can''t be both wrong at the same time, right?

    With a confident look, he grinned at Destiny and said firmly. "Pick the Symbol S. That is the correct one."

    The Goddess Destiny nodded as she waited for the Symbol S to whirl near to the life gate of the 1st circle before she channeled her soul power into it.

    All of a sudden, the ck spatial space began to sh white and red, indicating that the symbol had been activated incorrectly.

    This stunned Destiny as she stared at Ji Yuan, "This is the wrong symbol?!!! Now we may have alered the Great Deste Wyrm from his slumber..."

    Ji Yuan looked at her with a straight face as he pretended to console her, "Erm Destiny, I think you did it incorrectly. That''s why. But I don''t me you for this. I will help you to shoulder this failure together. Don''t worry. With me around to protect you, everything will be alright."
